Manotick will get new boat dock this summer: Moffatt Brian Dryden

brian.dryden@metroland.com

Boaters will once again be able to pull up to a public dock at an existing boat launch area along the Rideau in Manotick this summer, according to the city councillor for the area.

Rideau-Goulbourn Coun. Scott Moffatt said

that after talks between the City of Ottawa and Parks Canada, he expects a dock to be in place this summer.

Moffatt said the city will go ahead and put a dock at the site after Parks Canada indicated it was willing to allow a dock to be reinstalled at the site on a temporary permit basis.

removed in 2012 after the sale of the land to the city.

The Manotick Village Community Association was approved to receive up to $23,350 from the city to build a dock at the site beside the Long Island Aquatic Club off South River Drive. But Parks Canada was unwilling, until recently, to allow a dock to be reinstalled at the site.

Manotick Community Association president Klaus Beltzner told the Manotick News previously he understands Parks Canada’s safety concerns.

“In my mind, I am personally in favour of going ahead with a one year trial, but we need to have the criteria for that trial.

“We need someone to say, ‘look, these are the kinds of problems we will be looking at,’” Beltzner said.

ate its own dock at the site before the city bought land from the feds beside Bridge Street in 2011.

“It looks pretty good that we can address any concerns they have. If there are any issues, they can be addressed fairly easily so we don’t have to remove the dock in the future,” Moffatt said of the temporary permit Parks Canada is willing to grant. The operation of the dock will then be reviewed regarding the safety of having a dock at that location.

Moffatt said the city needs to get a dock that can be placed at the site.

“The boating season is a good four months long, so I’m sure we can get this done (this season),” he said.

Common themes emerge at ROSSS community forum Brian Dryden

brian.dryden@metroland.com

It was a sparse crowd that showed up at the end of a hot and sunny day, but those who attended a Rural Ottawa South Support Services community forum Thursday night in Manotick made up for the low turnout with their passion for the subject.

The community forum is part of an ongoing review of ROSSS’s future role in the communities it serves. Along with the public forum at the Manotick Arena, ROSSS has been holding focus groups

and conducting an online survey for residents of the area to voice their “thoughts on the community’s needs.”

The organization’s board of directors approved a new five-year strategic plan in December that envisions turning ROSSS into a support hub for all rural south residents.

Currently, the organization mostly supports seniors and adults with disabilities.

ROSSS runs a Meals on Wheels program, regular outreach activities, preventative health clinics and transportation services for clients who would otherwise be stuck at

home.

The idea going forward is for ROSSS to support other groups as well, and to find out what the community atlarge thinks of what ROSSS should get involved with.

“It’s about what other demographics other than seniors we can help,” said Mary Acton-Bond, ROSSS executive director, about the process.

At the May 7 community forum about a dozen people formed into smaller groups and discussed the strengths and weaknesses of the services available in rural southern Ottawa and how ROSSS can evolve in the future to become a hub that helps connect rural residents to the services they may need.

Among the issues that came up at the forum was BRIAN DRYDEN/METROLAND the perception that there is a ROSSS program manager Leah MacQuarrie, far right, listens to what some of the parlack of services for youth in ticipants have to to say at one of the discussion tables during a community forum at rural Ottawa, deficiencies in Manotick Arena May 7. access to mental health and health services and ongoing act as a hub to bring people pared to 12.3 per cent in the ally good input,” Jordan said.

Dickinson Square is the place to be in Manotick this Victoria Day long weekend, as Watson’s Mill gets set to host its opening day bash to launch its new season on Saturday, May 16.

A wide range of activities for kids and families are on tap for Saturday starting at 10 a.m., with the official Season Opening Ceremony slated for 11:30 a.m. After the official ceremony, those who have worked up a hunger will have their hunger pangs satiated by a tasty community barbecue as the activities continue through the afternoon.

The season opening of Watson’s Mill is in many ways the start of the summer season in the village. New arrivals will be available at the Carriage Shed Book Sale and there will be plenty to see and do at Dickinson

House as Dickinson Square comes alive with a plethora of activities that should appeal to residents of the village and visitors of all ages to the area as well.

“We like to make a bit of a splash to kick off the season,” said Watson’s Mill manager Isabelle Geoffrion.

“Everything in Dickinson Square opens that day for the season,” Geoffrion said.

“We have several community groups coming to set up displays, there will be lots of entertainment and pioneer games.”

One of the new attractions on opening day this year is Manotick Farmer’s Market will also be holding its inaugural market of the year on May 16.

“In the past, the market has started in June, so we’re pretty happy to have everything starting at the same time this year,” Geoffrion said.

Indeed, organizers of the Farmer’s Mar-

ket expect to have a banner year this spring and summer.

“It’s out fourth year and we are starting to get established,” the market’s Jack Williams said, adding that 25 vendors have already been lined up for this season, offering those who stop in at the market a lot more options than the 10 to 12 vendors a year ago.

Williams said opening the market on the May long weekend puts Manotick’s market in line with most other farmer’s markets in Ontario that have traditionally opened on the Victoria Day long weekend.

The Farmer’s Market will operate from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. on May 16 to mirror the hours of the mill’s opening day bash and will also have extended hours during other special events such as during the Dickinson Days weekend of June 5-7. The market’s regular hours each Saturday through the summer will be 9 a.m. to 2 p.m.

Vernon resident Kim Sheldrick can still see the faint remains of a wild parsnip burn she suffered in 2007.

She was weeding around the village sign in preparation for Canada Day when the plant brushed against her legs, leaving angry red lines and clusters of tiny blisters.

“It was like a very extreme sunburn,” Sheldrick said. “The one spot was like a line, you could tell exactly where

the leaf or the stem had rubbed across my leg.”

Sheldrick is one of many Ottawa residents who have fallen victim to the wild parsnip, a newly-classified noxious weed that hangs out in ditches and fields just waiting for you to accidentally touch its toxic sap.

That sap, when combined with UV rays, can cause angry rashes, painful blisters and long-term skin discolouration.

Now the city hopes to return the favour with a new program to zap the invasive plant with herbicides beginning as early as mid-May. The agriculture and rural affairs office approved a new wild parsnip management strategy on May 7, including a plan to test several chemicals to help the city blast the plant into submission.

The yellow weed

– which looks a bit like Queen Anne’s Lace – has become a huge nuisance in Ottawa, concentrating along more than 200 kilometres of rural roads in the past decade and encroaching upon an unknown number of pathways, parks and woodlots.

It grows as expected: like a weed.

The parsnip is a hearty plant that can spread its hundreds of seeds on the wind and can’t be killed by a lawnmower. It can crowd out natural vegetation, reducing biodiversity in rural areas.

Right now the invasion is largely restricted to areas near Manotick, Barrhaven, Stittsville and Kanata, but public works general manager Kevin Wylie said it’s increasingly prevalent east of the Rideau River too. His staff are going to update their spring 2014 map this summer

to include parks and pathways, and he said he expects to see even more wild parsnip cropping up than last year.

The province only added the plant to its noxious weeds list in January, so there’s little research into how various herbicides affect the plant. Up until now, Ottawa has opted for an aggressive mowing schedule along roadsides, cutting into ditches and sometimes to the fence line to limit the parsnip’s spread. That will be expanded this year to keep growth rates down, but it won’t eradicate the plant. “Mowing in and of itself is not going to solve the problem,” Wylie said. “The mowers we use do a good job of taking the growth down but we can’t get down to the base.”

That’s where the chemical warfare comes in. Herbicides have

been used with success in other municipalities, including in Stormont, Dundas and Glengarry and Leeds-Grenville just south of Ottawa.

Leeds-Grenville began a pilot project last year with an herbicide called Clearview, which targets broadleaf plants without killing the surrounding grass. SD&G leaves it up to its contractor to decide what chemical is used.

Wylie said the city is working with Ottawa Public Health and the province to determine what herbicides it will test this summer, and where. Most problem areas will be targeted, but contractors will stay away from populated places, he added.

Wild parsnip sightings can also be reported by calling the city’s 311 information line. The city has allocated $100,000 in its budget for the 2015 program.

More police, new signage to tackle River Road speeding Erin McCracken

An upswing in traffic, speeding, tailgating and passing on the shoulder in

the wake of last summer’s opening of Vimy Memorial Bridge has prompted the recent installation of two digital speeding signs on River Road.

which flash a motorist’s speed, should serve as a warning to comply with speed limits on the scenic route, which range from 60 to 80 kilometres an hour, or potentially face hefty fines under the Motor Vehicle Act. Police presence on River Road was also recently boosted, a measure that is expected to continue in the coming weeks.

“This is a head’s up,” said Gloucester-South Nepean Coun. Michael Qaqish. “If they’re still speeding after this then I think we have some issues. Obviously, if there’s going to be recurring patterns of speeding then we’re going to have to crack down on that for the safety of residents.”

Several people, particularly from the Gloucester Glen and Honey Gables communities, have raised concerns in recent months about traffic volumes, speeding and tailgating along the two-lane stretch.

With the increase in traffic, especially Monday to Friday, from 7 to 9 a.m. and 3 to 5

p.m., and the prevalence of speeding, residents in the area find it challenging turning onto River Road from their residential neighbourhoods.

Bron Vasic, president of the Honey Gables Development Association, which represents a community of more than 50 homes, and his neighbours are worried about being rear-ended by tailgating motorists when they slow down to turn off River Road and head for home.

“They’re just bulleting down the road. They’re either speeding away from the bridge or speeding to the bridge to go over it – they’re in that much of a hurry,” Vasic said.

“They’re essentially tailgating you and wondering, ‘Well, why are you slowing down?’ It’s very intimidating, especially for older residents.

“We have a significant population that are older. It’s difficult for the residents that live right along River Road … to be able to handle some of the traffic issues,” he said,

adding that with the opening of the bridge there has been a “dramatic” increase in traffic.

The purpose of the bridge was to create better east-west connectivity, Qaqish said, but added that “with that connectivity also comes traffic issues that we have to proactively manage.”

Data is now being collected to measure traffic volumes.

Traffic signal timing changes have also been implemented at different points on River Road, and the city is putting in place directional signs in the approaches to River Road.

Also a worry has been the prevalence of motorists using the narrow gravel shoulder to go around turning drivers.

Qaqish hopes recently installed metal signs that warn motorists to stop rather than go around other drivers will help curb this kind of behaviour.

Elmdale resident Kerry Mortimer first sounded the alarm about a boost in traffic

and speeding on River Road not long after the bridge opened.

After she publicly voiced her concerns, a number of local residents contacted her to express similar concerns.

“It’s still a pretty constant increase in traffic. It’s a very steady flow of people coming over the bridge turning left onto River Road,” Mortimer said recently. “I’ve been passed on the double yellow (line), in fact, just the other day. That happens fairly often.”

She saw the digital speeding signs go up along her road last week, but believes enforcement is the strongest way to send a zero-tolerance message about speeding.

When she slows down to turn on to her street in the Cedardale community in Gloucester-Southgate ward, motorists behind her will just zip around her at high speeds.

“People continue on and I just wish a cop was there to get them,” she said.

Shepherd’s of Good Hope and the Ottawa Food Bank trucks were to distribute the sandwiches once they were ready.

One teacher told the students the sandwich making was not a race, but still as the effort got underway, the murmur of excited kids concentrating on the job at hand took over the space.

Students made sure to wear plastic gloves as they went about the lesson of the day, and piles of sandwiches started to take shape in preparation for distribution. *

Students at St. Mark Catholic School in Manotick got a hands-on lesson in helping others on Wednesday, May 6, with students in all grades participating in the school’s fourth annual Service Day. Just after school started for the day, the school’s gymnasiums and hallways were buzzing with activity as students got to work preparing lunches and prepping care packages for a number of outreach programs in Ottawa, and some older students in Grades 1011 fanned out in the local community to assist seniors and others with chores during the day.

“It’s a school wide effort to help out the community. The students really get into it and put a lot of effort in,” said St. Mark principal Andre Potvin.

Have Your Best Garden Ever in 2015 It’s no secret that a great garden starts with great soil.

Soil is a source of nutrients, air and water essential to the establishment of healthy root systems in plants; but its supply is not infinite.

A neglected soil is far less likely to yield the results you are looking for in your perfect garden. Over time your soil can become nutrient deficient, compacted or thin which can make it difficult to grow and lead to poor plant health. A great soil is rich in nutrients, PH balanced and has excellent tilth, allowing for easy air and water flow.

Furthermore, a great soil should also be built up enough to allow your plants’ roots plenty of room to grow deep and thus access more water and nutrients.

How can you take a tired, dull soil and turn it into a great soil? This can be accomplished using a number of techniques. One of the easiest ways to improve such a soil is by using an amendment or enhancer that is made up in large part of organic matter. Soil amendments are designed to be mixed in with existing soils to bolster areas in need of improvement.

The ideal time to introduce organic matter into your growing areas is in the Fall. This allows the beneficial microorganisms in your soil more time to become active before gardening season arrives. Not to worry though!

Even if you missed the window last fall, you can still get more out of your soil this Spring. There are great products on the market that can make a real difference in the results you see from your garden this year, including Manderley’s Premium Garden Soil – which can be conveniently delivered right to your driveway in an easy-to-store cubic yard bag.

Manderley’s soil mix is a 100% natural product consisting of black earth, organic fertilizer, compost, sand and lime. The organic content in the mix is quite high, which promotes microbial activity in your growing area. Microorganisms will work hard to mineralize the organic nutrients giving your plants more food for healthy growth. Each component in this mix contributes particles of different sizes and shapes. This results in improved airflow and drainage and reduces the risk of over compaction. The organic-based soil will also provide excellent water retention; something your plants’ roots will really appreciate.

Giving your best garden ever the head start it deserves isn’t rocket science. Follow these easy steps for best results: Step one - determine how much soil you need. Keep in mind that you should aim to maintain at least a 6” soil depth (pro tip – top off your growing areas with 2” of soil every Fall to make up for soil loss caused by erosion, etc.).

Step two - go get your soil, or better yet, have it delivered without the mess or hassle.

Step three - till or turn over the existing soil in your growing areas.

Step four - add in your soil mix and ensure that your beds reach the appropriate depth. It’s that easy.

Understanding the importance of maintaining a healthy soil is the first step in reaching your garden goals for 2015. By following these four steps and giving your plants proper care throughout the gardening season, you’ll be amazed at the difference.

Not time to slam on the brakes

T

here’s a great deal of consensus these days around the idea that as a society, we need to move beyond our dependence on the automobile. Sprawl, congestion and road safety are among the issues brought up time and time again at city halls across the country.

Here in Ottawa, what to do about all the cars is top of mind as well. Councillors and staff are always looking for ways to make commutes easier, streets safer and neighbourhoods friendlier for those doing pretty much anything other than driving a car.

As it should be. Roads are costly to maintain.

Congestion saps valuable time that could be spent doing any number of other, more productive things.

Cyclists and pedestrians are at constant risk of serious injury or worse while navigating the city.

But there’s a problem: Ottawa, as with the rest of Canada, is a society built for the past century around the automobile. Cities have been planned around the idea that most people will go out their front door, hop behind the wheel and go wherever

they need to go. That’s history that won’t be erased overnight.

There are a number of initiatives in Ottawa right now sizing up how parking is handled. Westboro is considering paid parking for Richmond Road, Preston Street is dropping fees, and the city is pondering reducing parking requirements for new buildings in the urban area.

Those looking to improve our city by making life difficult for cars need to take pause. Restrictions on parking, if implemented too quickly, will be detrimental to the city. Most people still drive, and if they can’t drive where they want, they’ll stay away.

Part of what makes cities vibrant isn’t just those people who live in a particular neighbourhood, but who else that neighbourhood attracts. If you can’t get somewhere, you won’t go.

This means before we rush to bar the car, we should focus on building transit, cycling and pedestrian infrastructure. Make it easier for people to choose to leave their ride behind before you force them to make that decision.

Time for public generosity for public schools

T

here’s a school in my neighbourhood that is doing an effective job of fundraising for a new, and needed, playground. A coup was getting the support of a nearby Loblaws, where signage promotes the campaign and customers are invited, at the checkout counter, to contribute.

There has been some published controversy in recent months over this technique – not in this specific case, but in others. Some people have complained that they feel put-upon, embarrassed, even shamed when they are publicly asked to contribute to worthy causes. Many of these people are privately generous and resent being made to feel like cheapskates when they decline to contribute.

People rushed to answer to this

Schools have been nickel-anddimed for decades, forced into bake sales and selling chocolate bars to finance activities and equipment that should be theirs by right.

It all comes out of some strange notion of fiscal prudence, a desire to keep taxes low and cut frills. So “frills” become things like team uniforms, sports equipment and playgrounds. And special programs at some schools are available only to those children whose parents can afford to fork out the money for them.

ent areas. Parents who live in better-off neighbourhoods have no difficulty contributing extra money, no difficulty in persuading neighbours and friends to chip in. The result is a further educational inequality.

The irony of it all is that many of those who call for restraints in spending on schools are of the generation that benefitted from a more generous time. If you are above a certain age, you can remember that you were given a uniform when you made the team. You didn’t have to sell chocolate bars to pay for it.

Times have changed, taxpayers have become stingier, governments have become more cautious, school boards have had to make cuts, parents have to make up the difference.

Tropical greenhouse reopens at Arboretum Steph Willems

steph.willems@metroland.com

A little taste of the tropics returned to the centre of Ottawa.

After nearly five years of renovations and a delayed reopening, the tropical greenhouse in the Dominion Arboretum reopened to the public on May 10.

Housing more than 500 varieties of tropical plants, the heritage greenhouse is one of the few indoor jewels of the sprawling Central Experimental Farm. Unlike other installations devoted to agriculture, the tropical greenhouse provided an oasis from the often harsh conditions outside, and a tourist attraction for when

the arboretum’s public gardens are buried under snow.

“It’s a huge plus,” said Denise Kennedy, a volunteer gardener with Friends of the Central Experimental Farm. “(We were) constantly getting calls asking us when the greenhouse will open.”

The farm falls under the stewardship of Agriculture and Agri-Food Canada, though the Friends have taken upon themselves to promote and preserve the natural beauty of the farm.

An extensive restoration of the greenhouse was required due to the prolonged heat and humidity housed within the structure.

The restoration process followed strict guidelines based

on original materials and technologies to ensure the historic structure remained true to its original intent.

In February, the tropical greenhouse received an Architectural Conservation Award from the City of Ottawa.

The reopening was timed to coincide with Mother’s Day, which was also the day the Friends held their popular annual rare and exotic plant sale.

That sale, held May 10 from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m., will expected to draw 25 growers from across eastern Ontario and western Quebec, as well as many returning customers.

“We put an invite out to all kinds of nurseries and specialty growers,” said Kennedy.

“This year we will have

four garden accessory vendors as well.”

Held in the parking lot adjacent to the Neatby Building at the corner of Carling Avenue and Maple Lane, the sale draws from the urban neighbourhoods surrounding it – areas normally far away from the closest nurseries.

“We have a lot of the same people who keep coming back,” said Kennedy.

“The growers talk to those who come to the sale and answer questions, and many come back due to that one-onone with the growers.”

Information on the sale and the activities and attractions of the experimental farm can be found by visiting friendsofthefarm.ca.

Unfair trunk charges dropped in Manotick Emma Jackson

emma.jackson@metroland.com

City staff have been directed to reverse an unfair development charge for homebuilders in Manotick.

The city updated its development charge bylaw last year, imposing a blanket fee of about $10,000 per residential property to cover future servicing costs in Manotick village.

But the fees were applied unilaterally as a stock charge on every new development application in the village – even one-off infill projects.

That’s standard practice elsewhere in the city, because, in theory, a whole community generally benefits from expanded and upgraded services.

But in Manotick’s case, the village is largely built out already with just a few vacant infill lots here and there – and most will be built on well and septic.

The neighbourhoods

on private services might someday have the opportunity to buy in to the city’s water and sewage lines through the local improvement process, but if they had already paid the trunk charges they would be paying twice for the same service, Moffatt said.

“This charge is redundant and it should only apply to the areas of the future that are to be developed on central services,” a staff report concluded.

The agriculture affairs committee asked staff to draft a bylaw amendment reversing the fee structure for mature neighbourhoods in the village. Assuming council accepts the change, the bylaw will limit the surcharge to the village core, Hillside Gardens and Minto’s Mahogany development.

Moffatt said any Manotick builder who unfairly paid the trunk charges would be reimbursed under the change.

Officers’ Memorial Day on May 17.

This year, local officers will be promoting their profession to young people and showing potential future recruits the diversity of policing careers.

“The theme aims to promote collaboration between the police and community, especially youth,” said Ottawa police acting Chief Ed Keeley. “It also provides an opportunity for the public to learn about the role police plays in their community every day.”

Celebrations took place on May 11 at Ottawa police headquarters at 474 Elgin St., and on May 12 at the Lincoln Fields Shopping Centre, located at 2525 Carling Ave. There will be a significant police presence at the Hunt Club-Riverside Park Community Centre, located at 3320 Paul Anka Dr., on May 14, from 4 to 7 p.m.

That celebration will feature clowns, a basketball game and treats, along with displays by the Ottawa police marine, dive and trails unit, and traffic and emergency services officers, as well as exhibits on community crime prevention programs, such as child print, home safety inspections and the Neighbourhood Watch program.

And celebrations will continue on May 15, from 3 to 6 p.m. at Jules Morin Park, located at 400 Clarence St.

Joy and relief greet news of successful heart transplant Brian Dryden

brian.dryden@metroland.com

Greely’s Jim Maveety took his first few steps as a new man last week, his first steps on the road to recovery after a heart transplant that his family and friends have been waiting a long time for.

“He’s doing amazingly well,” said Maveety’s motherin-law Mary-Lynn McPherson. “It’s just a very happy time for us.

“It was his birthday in April and his rebirth was May 1.”

Although the recovery process will be a long one, and Maveety is expected to remain in hospital for a few more weeks before he can return home to his wife Marah and two children, his friends and family are relieved that the stress of waiting and hoping is finally over.

“When the call came it was almost surreal,” said McPherson of when her daughter Marah got the call to say a heart was available for Jim to undergo the needed transplant.

“We were at the hospital in 45 minutes,” she said. “It was meant to be.”

Maveety’s heart troubles began 14 years ago, when he was 31.

He came down with a bad cold, which turned into pneu-

monia.

That infection attacked his heart.

For the next decade Maveety remained in relatively good health.

He slept more than usual, but his family chalked that up to his job working into the wee hours.

About three years ago his health started to decline, but Maveety continued to work.

Two years ago he was put on the heart transplant list with the hope that he would soon be able to put this behind him once and for all.

“He’s doing amazingly well. It’s just a very happy time for us ... It was meant to be.”

Mary-Lynn McPherson And then the long wait, and with that uncertainty financial issues arose as Jim couldn’t work anymore.

That’s when many people in the Greely community and surrounding region got involved with fundraisers to help the family financially, and just as importantly, to offer emotional support.

Janet Crain, who first met the Maveetys through the Gloucester Rangers hockey team, on which their sons both play, helped organize fundraisers and also set up a supportive website called Jim’s Hearts.

The website followed

Maveety’s journey as he awaited a new heart, and also raises awareness about the need for organ donors.

“It is great news for sure,” Crain said of the transplant.

“Jim and Marah had been waiting more than two years.

The first thought was joy, but it was immediately followed by sorrow for the family who was brave enough to donate their loved one’s organs.

“Jim and Marah have a huge community of supporters who have been in their corner for a long time – it says a lot about Jim and Marah, and the fabulous people that they are,” Crain said of the way the community has rallied around the family.

“Jim’s new story has just begun, so we’ll celebrate that for a while and figure out where to go from here,” Crain said.

“Until organ donation is something that we all consider as a given, our job is not done.

“We hope people are even more inspired by Jim’s story now and sign up to be an organ donor.”

According to the Trillium Gift of Life Network, Ontario’s organ donation agency, only 25 per cent of the eligible population is registered on the organ donor list.

To register as an organ donor or to check if you’re on the list, visit beadonor.ca.

Mary finds out barrels had countless uses

W

hy we got so many barrels from Scots Hardware in Renfrew was a mystery to me.

It seemed to me they were used in the store for other purposes before we got them.

I would see barrels of nails, pieces of harness, and countless other things stored in them in the big store.

Father would pick one up regularly, and they served a host of uses for us as well.

We salted down pork and sauerkraut in the fall, and Father always had several lined up in the drive shed where they held everything from wire lengths, to pieces of harness and scraps of wood. And of course, there were always barrels at each corner of the house to catch the rainwater, which Mother used for Monday’s washings and for our Saturday night baths.

Then there was the day Fa-

MARY COOK Mary Cook’s Memories ther came home from Renfrew with a spanking new barrel from Scots Hardware. He told no one in particular, as he unloaded it off the wagon, that it was the sturdiest barrel he had seen in a long time, well worth the 50 cents he had to pay for it.

He set it behind the drive shed, ready for whatever use he had planned for it. Tapping it with the palm of his hand, as if it was a young filly he had just gained in a trade, he said again, “yup, well worth the 50 cents.”

Ronny eyed the barrel and went over to bend towards the inside of it. The young cous-

ins had arrived from Montreal earlier for their usual summer stay, and time on our hands was starting to take its toll on the mischievous lad who could never seem to keep out of trouble.

He slid to the end of the drive shed like a fox going into the hen house, and saw that Father had gone on to other chores.

I knew without asking that he was planning something.

He had that look about him that he always got when his mind was churning. He asked his much younger brother Terry to come and stand beside the barrel. Terry did exactly as

he was told. His golden curls came just to the rim of the barrel. “Perfect,” Ronny beamed.

“Give me a hand, Mary,” he ordered.

“I will do nothing of the sort, Ronny Lapointe,” I said.

“Whatever you have in mind, forget it this instant. Father just bought that barrel and he’ll kill us if anything happens to it.”

Ronny said I was scared of my own shadow, and besides what he was planning wasn’t going to hurt the barrel one bit.

He started to roll the barrel away from the drive shed. He had a dickens of a time trying to keep it rolling straight. Terry of course usually ignored by his older brother was right there putting his little hands on the barrel as if Ronny couldn’t roll it without him.

He was heading for the gully that led to the creek. I had no idea what he had in mind, but I knew perfectly well, with

his mind, it was some dastardly trick that we would pay dearly for later.

You would have thought I had learned my lesson from previous antics, and simply walked away. Hadn’t experience taught me that every time Ronny got into trouble I got into trouble too?

The barrel was gathering speed, as it wobbled from side to side down into the gully, with Ronny in hot pursuit.

I was sure he was going to try to float it on the Bonnechere. But he headed right for the West Hill with little Terry trying to keep up to him.

It was a hard push, and by the time we reached the top of the hill, the perspiration was pouring off Ronny’s face. He was chewing us out for not helping him push the barrel.

I still had no idea what he was up to. But I didn’t have to wait long.

He got down on one knee

and looked over the top of the barrel down the hill.

He told Terry, who was too young to know any better, to crawl in the barrel that he had a real treat in store for him.

Terry, who thought a treat meant candy or ice cream, did exactly what he was told. Then the picture of what Ronny had in mind unfolded right before my eyes.

He was going to send Terry careening down the West Hill in Father’s brand new 50 cent barrel.

Terry crawled in head first, and Ronny told him to put his knees under his chin. He was tiny enough to do it.

And then Ronny gave the barrel a mighty shove and it went careening down the hill.

There wasn’t a murmur from the barrel and I was sure wee Terry had died of fright.

But the worst was yet to come.

Manotick News - Thursday, May 14, 2015

A conversation with Senators GM Bryan Murray scottcampbell@metroland.com

The story of the 2014-15 Ottawa Senators season has intrigued many hockey fans.

There were disappointments, surprise twists and players who unexpectedly took starring roles.

The result was a record run to a playoff sport that made NHL history. Overlooking it all was the club’s Valley-raised general manager Bryan Murray.

“By Christmastime we were in a mediocre mode and not really in contention,” said Murray during a visit to Shawville, Que., near Renfrew.

“We made a coaching change, changed our philosophy a little bit on how we are going to play the game and I saw improvement. We played better, but we weren’t winning on a consistent basis. I knew we were going to have a struggle to make the playoffs.

“All of sudden we had two goaltenders get hurt and we had an incredible run. Andrew Hammond came in and played great. I thought we were a play-

Scott Campbell/Metroland

Sage words about player development, cancer prevention from Brian Murray off team and then we became a playoff team but in a very different fashion than what was ever suggested.”

MODEST BEGINNINGS

The Senators surprise lateseason rise to become a contender could be said to mirror Murray’s rise to one of the NHL’s best-known hockey minds.

Bryan is one of 10 children of Clarence and Rhoda Murray.

He has great memories of growing up on a farm just outside of Shawville.

“We did rafting and getting turtles … Lots of things young people should experience at some point in their life; unfortunately today it is not quite the same.”

Murray also had time to play lots of pond hockey on the farm, both before and after school. If any of the Murray boys wanted to play hockey in town at the arena, they had to walk.

“Nobody ever drove anybody,” he said. “So you put the skates and equipment bag over your shoulder, you walked in and after the game you played, you walked out. We didn’t expect otherwise.”

Indoor hockey was not very common for Murray until he was about 14 or 15 years old.

“It wasn’t really organized minor hockey. We had teams, played Bristol, Radford. Once in a while we get a game in Ottawa and that was a big moment in our lives.”

Despite his love for hockey, Murray enjoyed another sport even more.

“My favourite and probably my best sport was baseball. I was a baseball pitcher. I was a pretty good hockey player, but if I would have been an American, probably would have a chance to play more baseball.”

Although he played for the Smith Falls Bears in junior hockey and had a couple of tryouts with Guelph of the Ontario Hockey League, Murray left hockey to become a teacher and then part owner of a sporting goods store and a hotel-tavern in Shawville.

The pull of hockey remained, and Murray had coaching stints with the Rockland Nationals and the Pembroke Lumber Kings in the Canadian Junior Hockey League, now the CCHL. See BRYAN page 24

Saturday, April 26 – Friday, May 8 I would like to thank the organizers of Shroomfest for another great event. It was wonderful to see so many people enjoying themselves while supporting such a terrific cause. I’d like to extend a special thank you to some of my Council Colleagues, and specifically Mayor Watson, for joining in the evening’s festivities.

My thanks go out to St. James United Church for once again hosting a hearty breakfast on Saturday morning. It is a nice gesture of fellowship and I was pleased to see so many people in attendance. One more breakfast will be held next month and then will resume again in the Fall.

Transportation Committee was held on Wednesday and it was a smaller agenda than in previous months. The topics discussed centred around parking in the urban areas and the implementation of an improved system that will allow for greater efficiency for fueling city vehicles.

Mary The barrel was not going in a straight line, but it was travelling like a speeding bullet. I yelled that if it hit the Bonnecherre Terry would drown.

But it was heading right for the big maple tree and there was nothing to save it from the crash that followed.

It split into a million pieces and Terry lay there as if he was dead. We tore down the hill and Ronny said the barrel did exactly what he thought it would do, but that he was a little off on his figuring. He said he figured it should have missed the tree. Terry crawled off the mess of splintered barrel staves, and it looked like he didn’t have a scratch on him.

It was a long time since I saw Father so mad, he was swearing in German, chewing on his pipe, and making a grab for Ronny. There was no saving the 50 cent barrel. It would join the kindling in the wood box in the summer kitchen.

Week In RevIeW

WHERE KIDS KICK THEIR GAME UP A NOTCH!

Agriculture and Rural Affairs Committee met on Thursday, May 7. There were a number of topics discussed, but one in particular I would like to highlight is wild parsnip. As of January 2015, the Province changed the classification on this plant and it is now considered a noxious weed. This means that it can potentially be treated chemically with this new designation. A report was received at ARAC to update members on the management strategy going forward. Please read further into the newsletter for more details about this plant and I would encourage all residents to be vigilant when participating in outdoor activities.

Bryan Murray Continyed from page 23

“Out of the blue I got a call from Regina to be interviewed for the Regina Pats job. I thought I owed it to myself to at least interview,” said Murray. “I did that and they offered me the job and I said to Geri, I’ll just go for one year and try full-time and see how it goes. I left them to run the hotel and (Regina) of course won the championship (in the 1979-80 season).”

That led him on a path that ended in the NHL. “I guess one year turned into a lot of years later,” he said. “The one thing I have to say is Geri and (daughter) Heide, who was young at that time, I moved them around a bit but they were very openminded to doing it. Certainly 35 and 36 years later, I’m still doing it.”

Murray come back to Ottawa to coach the Senators in

2004.

“It was home,” said Murray.

“My plan was to coach three years in Ottawa and retire … that was going to be the end of it. Mom and dad were still around and family was here. I thought it was a perfect place to finish up.

“After three years, we went to the Cup final in 2007 and again (I was offered) by the owner to take over and become the GM and here I am still working.”

Despite being the Senators GM, the coach in him has never really disappeared. Murray still works on line combinations, match-ups and makes notes every game on what he thinks should happen and not happen.

“I never tell the coach who to play or how to play them.

I do suggest things to them to do on the ice better or maybe what I like about a certain player versus another player,”

he says.

“But I think keeping tabs on what’s going on where players performances is concerned, or individual performance versus the team play overall, that’s part of my obligation too.”

Murray has some advice for local players and their parents.

“If you are from a small town and even if you are going be an NHL player, until you are 14 years of age, you should be playing in your hometown with your own friends,” he says.

“Having the memories … and the teambuilding that goes with that,” said Murray.

“When you are 14, if you figure and your parents figure you’re a star and you have a chance to go to the city to play AAA, that’s OK.” Murray has received calls about young players, one about a 12-year-old boy from Pembroke who was given the chance to play in Ottawa AAA. “Why would you do that?” said Murray. “Drive an hour

each way, four times a week and go to tournaments on weekends. Is he going to be an NHL player at 12 years of age? Not likely. Give him a couple more years. There’s always been good minor hockey in the Valley, let them play there.”

SHARING THE CANCER MESSAGE

Murray continues to devote himself to the Senators despite a fight with cancer. He made waves last November when in a TSN interview he publicly disclosed he was battling the disease.

“It was hard on my family,” said Murray. “They didn’t want to hear after the fact that every time there was an article written saying it was terminal cancer, I didn’t have a long life expectancy. But I thought it was really important to share that I missed the boat on the colonoscopies. I did everything else. I did all the medicals every year, but that.

“When I talked to the doctors, they told me very clearly if I had a colonoscopy, I wouldn’t have had a problem.

I thought it was important for me to share that. Geri (wife), Brittany and Heide (daughters) all kind of agreed after the fact.”

He says the response to the message has been outstanding. It has reached well beyond the Ottawa area to other NHL cities.

People have called Murray to say thanks because in heeding his advice they have caught cancer early while still treatable. He has received messages from wives saying he has saved their husbands’ lives.

When he went to a new Ottawa Gastrointestinal Institute clinic in Ottawa to get a check-up, “the doctor told me the day I was on TSN, 150 men called for appointment,” he said. Murray plans to work with the institute to help get their message out.

The cancer diagnosis has required Murray to make adjustments to his working life – this past season he didn’t travel with the Ottawa Senators as much as he usually did.

SENS CHANGES LIKELY

Yet, he is not ready to step away from the game just yet.

He’s already looking ahead to the summer months where there will be necessary tweaks to the team, despite the remarkable run to the playoffs.

“We have five free agents to sign,” he said.

“We have to make a couple adjustments I think in our lineup.

“Hopefully we will be able to acquire maybe one more experienced player that would help us (but) that is obviously difficult to do.

“I think we have some assets that some teams might like and if we could work it the right way we might do it (add a talented veteran),” he added.

“Beyond that, I told the players, each and every one of them, to have a great summer.

Work out and make sure you are stronger because of the youth of our group.

“I think the summer is going to be critical that some of them get better, stronger.

When they come back, the experience of this past year should be really beneficial.”

Laughter &

Chocolate

It’s no surprise laughter is one of life’s best medicines. Laughter helps release feelgood hormones like serotonin which is our happy hormone and oxytocin which is our cuddle hormone. It helps to reduce the stress hormones and releases

endorphins to reduce pain. Laughter also increases the release of nitric oxide from the lining of blood vessels which helps to reduce blood pressure, and improve heart health. Chocolate also helps to release our feel good hormones serotonin and oxytocin. They say it also makes the heart grow fonder!

So live, laugh and love chocolate!

Eat this, don’t

Eat That

How do you really know what good healthy eating is? What is nutrition? Nutrition is the science that interprets the interaction of nutrients and other substances in food (e.g. phytonutrients, anthocyanin, tannins, etc.) in relation to maintenance, growth, reproduction, health and disease of an organ. Healthy eating is an important part of a healthy lifestyle, it will keep you looking good and feeling great.

Here are some simple tips to get you started on the right path to healthy eating: Go for whole grains which are higher in vitamins, minerals and phytonutrients.

Load up on fruits and vegetables which are packed with nutrients and fiber.

1 cup pecans, pre-soaked in water 30 min+, drained, optional) 5 medjool dates, pitted ½ cup cacao powder 1 Tbsp extra virgin coconut oil (EVCO), melted

Choose dairy products with protein, calcium and B vitamins.

Go with lean meats which are a good source of protein, iron, zinc and other nutrients.

Choose healthier fats and oils (avocados, seeds, olive oil, flaxseed or nuts oil) to add flavour to food and help your body absorb some nutrients.

1. Add pecans to a blender and process until crumbly. Add dates, cacao powder, EVCO and vanilla. Continue to process until all mixed. Divide mixture into 6 desert glasses and press firmly to form a crust on the bottom.

2. Add bananas, coconut milk, cashews and melted chocolate chips into a blender and blend until creamy and smooth. Transfer banana mixture to desert glasses on top of crust. Decorate with a sprinkle of remaining chocolate chips. Refrigerate 1-2 hours or until firm. You can also make this recipe into a pie!

Mini Chocolate Shooters

Sometimes you just want a “chocolate fix”! Indulge guilt free in this blend of pecans and chocolate for a healthy fountain of youth treat. Pecans are high in healthy unsaturated fat and just a handful a day can lower “bad” cholesterol. They also contain more than 19 vitamins and minerals including vitamins A, B, and E, folic acid, calcium, magnesium, phosphorus, potassium, and zinc. Plus pecans give you 21% of your daily iron needs.

Jeopardy host unveils uOttawa alumni hall Alex Robinson

alex.robinson@metroland.com

Despite having hosted one of the most widely-watched game shows in the United States for decades, Alex Trebek never forgot his academic roots at the University of Ottawa.

The Jeopardy! star swung through the university’s campus on May 5 to unveil a brand new alumni hall, bearing his name.

Trebek graduated from uOttawa with a degree in philosophy before ascending to a career in broadcasting and becoming a nightly fixture in living rooms across North America. The new alumni hall sits across the street from Tabaret Hall, a building where Trebek slept when he was a boarder at prep school.

Every time Trebek visits his old stomping grounds, memo-

ries and names of people from that time come flowing back to him.

“If you believe as I do that your character forms to a great extent in adolescence, then mine was formed right here,” he said at a ceremony, marking the opening of the building.

“We students were a true band of brothers.”

Trebek fondly recalled friends and priests who had taught him at the prep school.

Back in those days, Trebek said he dreamed of one day becoming a pilot, doctor or prime minister.

“You guys don’t have to be rocket scientists to realize I have achieved none of those ambitions. I am a failure,” he said.

The Alex Trebek Alumni Hall is in two renovated heritage buildings, the former house of Thomas Foran, uOt-

tawa’s first alumnus, and the Maison Gaston-Héon. The building will provide the university’s alumni with a place to meet and is the first of its kind on campus.

The hall was paid for in part with some of a $2.4 million donation Trebek gave to the university.

University President Allan Rock praised Trebek’s charitable endeavours, such as the work he has done with World Vision.

“In these efforts, and so many like them over the years, Alex has worked away quietly, away from the cameras, away from the spotlight – making a true and lasting difference,” Rock said. “We’re so grateful his generosity extends to his alma mater at the University of Ottawa.”

Trebek’s contributions have also funded the Alex Trebek Distinguished Lecture Series,

a number of talks from speakers around the world.

Trebek criticized the way some American schools brand themselves as liberal or conservative, saying it limits them and works to their disadvantage.

“I hope this kind of labelling will never happen to the University of Ottawa,” he said. “We should welcome all points of view, especially those that disagree with our own. I’m very encouraged by the new Alex Trebek series of lectures that will bring very different points of view from all over the world to our doorstep here in Canada’s capital.”

The speaker series was set to kick off on May 8 on the grounds of Tabaret Hall with a talk by New York Times columnist Thomas Friedman.

“I should also like to point out Thomas Friedman was a contestant on celebrity jeopardy and he didn’t win his game,” Trebek said to laughter. “I am forced to regrettably repeat my remarks of a few moments ago. It grieves me

After speaking, Trebek un-

veiled a wall in the alumni hall, commemorating some of his accomplishments, which include Emmy, Peabody and World Vision awards.

Notice of Commencement Kennedy-Burnett Stormwater Management Facility – Environmental Assessment and Functional Design The City of Ottawa is undertaking a Municipal Class Environmental Assessment (EA) for the expansion and retrofit of the Kennedy-Burnett Stormwater Management Facility in Barrhaven.

The project was identified as a preferred alternative in the South Nepean Urban Area Master Servicing and Environmental Study.

The existing Kennedy-Burnett Stormwater Management Facility receives runoff from approximately 202 hectares of predominantly residential lands north of Strandherd Drive, along with a portion of commercial development in the Barrhaven Town Centre.

The facility will be expanded and retrofitted to provide enhanced water quality treatment consistent with Ministry of Environment and Climate Change requirements for the existing serviced area as well as the proposed developments adjacent to the facility south of Strandherd Drive. A functional design for the facility will also be completed as part of this study.

The Process The study is being planned under Schedule B of the Municipal Class EA (October 2000, as amended in 2007 and 2011), which is an approved process under the Ontario Environmental Assessment Act. Consultation

University of Ottawa master plan looks to spruce up campus alex.robinson@metroland.com

The University of Ottawa has plans to usher in major changes to its campus over the next 20 years to optimize its land and build green infrastructure.

University representatives presented a master plan outlining the changes to council’s

planning committee at a meeting on April 28.

The plan will include restoring heritage buildings, building new ones and developing more green space and pedestrian-friendly infrastructure.

“We are a major post-secondary education institution in Canada and our intention is to make it look that way

over the next 20 years,” said George Dark, of Urban Strategies, who is working with the university on the plan.

More than 80 per cent of the school’s 50,800 students, staff and teachers already do not use a car to the get to the university. The school expects to boost that percentage higher, with the expansion of the city’s LRT system.

DEVELOPMENT APPLICATIONS / AMENDMENTS UNDER THE PLANNING ACT NOTICE OF PLANNING COMMITTEE MEETING Tuesday, May 26, 2015 – 9:30 a.m.

The items listed below, in addition to any other items previously scheduled, will be considered at this meeting which will be held in the Champlain Room, City Hall, 110 Laurier Avenue West, Ottawa. To see any change to this meeting agenda, please go to Ottawa.ca.

“By virtue of having this system developed all across the city is the university can also decant itself over the city,” Dark said.

One of the proposed pieces of green infrastructure will be converting a parking lot near one of its social science buildings into an open green space for pedestrians.

Trees will be planted along King Edward Avenue, which the university hopes to better integrate into its campus by redeveloping property and installing a park along it.

The University of Ottawa is also looking to build more bike and pedestrian friendly pathways along the Rideau River, in the southern part of its campus.

The vision fits within the city’s current official plan and zoning bylaws, meaning any part of it would only require a site plan approval to move ahead.Dark said the university has few plans to expand further into Sandy Hill.

“The aspirations to continue to build in Sandy Hill are almost non-existent with the exception along Henderson,” he said.

Barrhaven Coun. Jan Harder, who serves as the planning committee chairwoman, heralded the plan to build an open green square, where a parking lot currently

The University of Ottawa’s master plan sets out how the school would like to grow and develop over the next 20 years. University representatives presented their plan to the city council’s planning committee at a meeting on April 28. is. “What you’re doing with your parking lot x is very much what they’re doing in Stockholm, Denver, Arlington and Seattle and it’s great to see it happening here,” she said. “It’s such a benefit.”

Councillors also asked about the school’s plans for housing.

University officials said they expect to bring 1,000

new residence spaces online by the end of the summer with the construction of new buildings and the conversion of a hotel on King Edward Avenue. The university has worked on the master plan for more than two years, holding a number of public consultations to develop it with residents, students and staff.

DIANA FISHER The Accidental Farmwife to work.

The first attempt to insert a shovel failed, as the soil was so hard-packed, nothing was giving. I decided if I couldn’t dig up the weeds, I would smother them – with manure.

I took my little plastic wheelbarrow to the manure pile and filled it with rich black loam. Composted manure just turns into beautiful dark soil and makes a great mix for topsoil.

If you put too much on it is quite acidic and can burn your plants, as I have discovered in the past. I figured this would be a good method of weed ex-

termination.

When the Farmer came home and saw me struggling to move a heavy wheelbarrow that was literally buckling under the weight of all that composted poop, he said, “dump it.”

I have learned to be patient with my husband. He uses words sparingly, preferring to communicate telepathically.

I have not yet learned how to receive these unspoken messages, however, so if I wait I find I get another word or two.“I’ll bring you a bucket,” he said, and motioned for me to slide the barn door open.

Oy vay. Here I am delicately sifting composted manure around and through my beloved plants.

He wants to drop a front loader bucket onto them.

In his defence, the plan was for me to stand in the garden and pull the manure off the bucket with my shovel.

The problem is the bucket on that ancient one-eyed broken-down tractor keeps shaking up and down, and I was getting composted manure down my boots, the neckline of my shirt, in my hair and eyes. I stood back and let him dump it.I spent the rest of the afternoon trying to uncover my plants.

Oh well. Last year they were so prolific they were choking each other out. This year, the little tips of each plant will have to prove their tenacity.

Next, realizing I had about one hour of gardening left be-

fore my back and hamstrings gave out, I brought out the bag of bulbs I received for my birthday.

Twenty-four burgundy and white glads to line the stone wall and stand in the sun beside the playhouse.

I can’t wait to see them grow, and cut them down for the Sunday dinner table.

Again, we’ll see if they survive the copious amounts of acidic manure.

By 5 p.m. my back was broken and I was done, with a feeling of real accomplishment. Contributing to my dorsal discomfort was the fact that I had washed a very filthy dog that morning as well. Cody decided he didn’t like my last column about his 100-year-old wobbly legs, and when his chain broke on Wednesday he decided to set off down the road to see just how far they would carry him.

He is a pup at heart, but I’m

sure he had to have a few naps along the way down the road, past the intersection and into the ditch about 2 kilometres away where he collapsed in a culvert, looking for a drink of water.

That is where Mr. Neuendorff found him. Lucky for Cody, Mr. N. and his wife are big dog lovers.

They took him home, fed him and loved him up until we eventually found each other again.

You’re only as old as you feel, I guess. After that day of gardening, I reckon I feel just about as old as that dog. I can’t stand up straight.

A Robaxacet for me and a dog biscuit for Cody and all is right with the world. Thank you, Mr. & Mrs. Neuendorff, for your extreme kindness.

have been dying to get my hands on that garden.

Well, perennial flowerbeds, really. They are overgrown with wild grape and morning glory vines and violets.

Sounds lovely but they are choking out my daylilies, hostas, sedum and chrysanthemum.

I imagined the best way to go about it would be to hack at the earth around each perennial plant, chopping it up so I can gain access to the weed roots, which I would pull out.

Instant Lawns Shares Top Tips for Selecting a Good Contractor and Getting the Best Bang for Your Buck Even the most handy homeowner or DIY landscaper finds themselves in need of a home-improvement contractor to tackle those bigger projects from time to time. Landscaping and lawn care are typically at the top of a homeowners’ list in the spring and summer months whether they’re listing their home for sale, moving into a new house, or just looking for an update.

Unfortunately, hiring a contractor to do the work tends to be a gamble, and can leave homeowners wishing they had done the job themselves. The seasonal landscaping industry is flooded with companies making big promises to get the sale, then delivering poor workmanship and a slew of surprise cost over-runs. When looking to get the best return on an investment in curb appeal, its crucial to find a professional team of contractors with an established reputation in your town.

Things To Keep in Mind When Selecting a Contractor: 1. Does a deal sound too good to be true? Then it probably is.

2. Customer & clients references are very important.

3. Have a detailed written agreement containing the scope of work.

4. Seek other quotes for comparison.

5. Do your own research. Are they with the Better Business Bureau or do they belong to any other professional organizations?

6. Trust your gut instinct.

Finding Service Instead of a Sale One Ottawa curb appeal and landscaping company has made reputation, reliability and quality work their mission. They service local homeowners; not sell to them. West-end Ottawa native a and Carleton Law Graduate, Adam Sarumi, started Instant Lawns in 2010 and the company has grown a solid reputation as the “curb appeal experts.” They make it easy for homeowners to book experienced, professional contractors for those landscaping services that require the most skill and provide the best return on investment; that includes sodding, sprinkler installation, seeding, interlock and gardening.

CHEO launches info campaign to curb anti-vax movement Steph Willems

steph.willems@metroland.com

A movement that had been quietly brewing for years leapt to the front page of newspapers recently following a sharp upturn in cases of preventable childhood diseases.

The anti-vaccination movement is blamed for the resurgence of once-common childhood diseases like measles and whooping cough, with pockets of disease now springing up in areas with low vaccination rates.

In response, the Children’s Hospital of Eastern Ontario is urging parents to “Spread the facts, not infection” with a new website and an online petition for the establishment of a national immunization awareness week.

The website, spreadthefacts. ca, was developed by CHEO, and garnered the attention of federal Health Minister Rona Ambrose during a visit to the hospital on April 29.

“Vaccinations are safe and effective in protecting us from many serious diseases,” said Ambrose in

a media release.

“I urge Canadians to protect themselves, their families and their communities.

Get the facts about vaccination from reliable sources and get vaccinated.”

Diseases like measles not only harm children and can lead to serious, potentially fatal side effects, but it can also endanger infants who are too young to be immunized.

Normally, ‘herd immunity’ protects the most vulnerable by surrounding them with a well-immunized population.

In this scenario, any case of the disease that crops up is usually limited to one person, doesn’t spread to others, and dies out in the populace. When vaccination rates fall below a certain threshold, cases spread and an outbreak occurs, putting others in danger.

Dr. Carrol Pitters, CHEO’s chief medical officer, has worked at the hospital since the mid-1980s, and never thought such a campaign would one day be required.

“I think we’re all quite disappoint-

ed, really, that we’re back here trying to encourage what we know is good and what we know will protect children,” said Pitters.

This past winter saw a continentwide outbreak of measles stemming from one sick child who visited Disneyland in California last December.

That eventually led to 130 children becoming ill, several of whom returned home to the Montreal area before showing symptoms.

For Pitters, that outbreak was the straw that broke the camel’s back.

CHEO began developing the information campaign in response to it.

“We’ve seen a couple of outbreaks, and particularly with measles, which is such a preventable disease,” said Pitters.

“To know it’s preventable, when people are suffering from this, is really quite disturbing … We’re hoping with this website, with this campaign, that giving people the right information and making them more aware will actually make a difference, and may encourage a few more people to go out and protect their kids - and protect STEPH WILLEMS/METROLAND the rest of us - by getting vaccinated or Federal Health Minister Rona Ambrose meets with Issac Valdez-Cadet, vaccinating their children.”

City secures $300,000 from Plasco to dismantle plant Alex Robinson

alex.robinson@metroland.com

The city has secured $300,000 in a settlement with Plasco Energy Group to decommission the wasteto-energy company’s demonstration facility on Trail Road.

The settlement was finalized on April 29, according to a memo sent by city solicitor Rick O’Connor to council.

“This will confirm that the city has now reached a settlement with Plasco and the Bank of Nova Scotia,” he said in the memo.

“The settlement agreement, signed by all three parties, was filed in court in Toronto on Wednesday, April 29, 2015, and the court approved its execution this morning.”

The $300,000 settlement will be held for six months

by the city’s external legal counsel, before the city can start to dismantle the demonstration facility, which is on city land near the Trail Road landfill.

City council looked to formally cut ties with Plasco in late February after the company sought creditor protection and cut 80 employees loose. Plasco had missed multiple deadlines to secure financing to build a new $200 million facility on Moodie Drive.

Plasco’s relationship with the city dates back to 2006, when the company leased some city land to explore its innovative technology.

The city then signed a contract with Plasco in 2011, hoping Ottawa would one day take advantage of lower waste disposal rates promised by the company’s cutting-edge plasma gasification technology.

The city would have paid Plasco $82.25 per tonne of waste and $9.1 million a year to convert its garbage into electricity.

The contract did not tie any city funding to the proposed facility and required Plasco to come up with the money on its own to build it.

Plasco, however, never found the financing it needed, and the deal fell apart. The city officially cancelled its commercial contract with the company on March 3.

While the commercial agreement was over, the city was still in negotiations to get the $300,000 letter of credit released by Plasco.

The company originally had a 30 day deadline to restructure under the province’s Companies’ Creditors Arrangement Act, but that deadline was extended until FILE July 17, according to court The city has secured a $3000,000 letter of credit from Plasco to dismantle its documents. demonstration facility.
