‘Vimy Bridge’ could replace Strandherd-Armstrong moniker emma.jackson@metroland.com
News – The Manotick and Barrhaven branches of the Royal Canadian Legion have teamed up to rename the Strandherd-Armstrong crossing “Vimy Bridge.” In a joint letter to the city clerk, the two branches made the case for paying tribute to Canada’s famous First World War battle of Vimy Ridge. “We feel this would be an
appropriate way to commemorate the 100th anniversary of the start of World War One, and the epic battle of Vimy Ridge led by Canadians to one of their greatest victories,” the letter reads. One hundred years ago this August, Britain declared war on Germany, bringing Canada and the other Commonwealth countries into the conflict along with it. More than 66,000 Canadians were killed during the four-year struggle,

including more than 3,500 at the Battle of Vimy Ridge in 1917. Manotick legion president Barry Young said the two branches felt it was important to commemorate the fight that many historians consider a turning point in Canadian nationalism and identity. “With Vimy being the major battle that made us a nation, we thought it would be appropriate to remember that battle and the people involved in it,” Young said. He said the joint application makes sense, since the Manotick legion covers Riverside South on the east side of the river, while Barrhaven covers the west. “It’s appropriate to handle it together,” he said. Gloucester-South Nepean Coun. Steve Desroches said he supports the suggestion, although it would have to go through the city’s commemorative naming process before anything is official.

Legion suggestion sparks healthy online debate Continued from the front
That includes a 30-day consultation period. “This is a remarkable structure, and it should have a name that inspires us as Canadians,” Desroches said. “So far the feedback I’ve had for that name has been very positive.” The bridge was funded in equal parts by the municipal, provincial and federal governments, and as a gateway feature in the capital region Desroches said it’s fitting the bridge would commemorate a national event. “In my mind I had always envisioned a name with national significance, given our status as the nation’s capital,” Desroches said. Nepean-Carleton MP Pierre Poilievre agreed. “As a one-third funding partner in the Strandherd-Armstrong Bridge, the Canadian
government would strongly support naming it in honour of those who fought and died for our nation,” Poilievre said in a statement on July 21. HEALTHY DEBATE
While politicians have jumped on board, not all residents are convinced Vimy Bridge – or Vimy Memorial Bridge, or any other potential version of the name – is the best choice for the new connection between the two south-end suburbs. “Its 100 years ago and one battle from one war,” said Osgoode resident Rob Brewster, who has volunteered at his local legion branch for years. “Why do we have to keep thinking 100 years ago? What about the guys in Afghanistan? This is the feedback I’m getting from people my age or younger.” Brewster said he doesn’t mean any disrespect to the le-
gions’ proposal, and said he would be happy with a name that honours all veterans instead of just those from one battle. Off the top of his head, he said names like Valour Bridge or Peacekeeper Bridge would be more inclusive. The debate was just as lively on Poilievre’s Facebook page, where he posted the Vimy Bridge suggestion for feedback. Comments ranged from total support to skepticism that a bridge plagued with years of problems should be named after a major Canadian moment. Others questioned whether the federal government’s show of support is misplaced. “Will that fix the problems at Veterans’ Affairs?” Rob Philpotts asked on Facebook. Desroches said it’s unclear when the city’s commemorative naming process will get underway, but he said it’s not meant to pit one name against another.

Donation targets invasive shoreline plants Emma Jackson emma.jackson@metroland.com
SMALL STEPS, BIG IMPACT
City Stream Watch investigates the city’s urban streams using volunteer ‘citizen scientists.’ According to program literature, over the course of the summer sampling season, volunteers become experts on the streams they study. They travel the creek corridors by foot to record valuable information on the physical and biological features of the tributaries. Once a survey is completed, the levels of need for rehabilitation projects are identiďŹ ed. Focusing on the small streams instead of the Rideau River they feed is the most effective way to keep the watershed healthy, according to program co-ordinator Chelsey Ellis. “Ninety-ďŹ ve percent of all shorelines in the Lower Rideau watershed are on the tributaries — not the Rideau,â€? Ellis said in a statement. “These feeder streams have a big role in the health of the
Rideau River. Because of their collective length, our small creeks and streams have 20 times the impact in terms of cleansing runoff from the land, preventing erosion, providing ďŹ sh spawning habitat and buffering the effects of nearby land uses.â€? To become a City Stream Watch volunteer, contact Ellis at 613-692-3571 ext. 1180 or citystreamwatch@rvca.ca.

News â&#x20AC;&#x201C; A $5,000 donation will help rid the cityâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s streams of two invasive species this summer. TD Friends of the Environment donated the money to the Rideau Valley Conservation Authority this July in support of its City Stream Watch program. Staffer Justin Robert said the money helped the organization fund staff and equipment to remove Himalayan balsam and yellow iris from the shores of Taylor Creek in Orleans, Pinecrest Creek near Bayshore, Greens Creek in Gloucester, and Stillwater, Nepean and Graham Creeks in Nepean. Robert said the two invasive species, which often arrive from Eurasia as ornamental plants, are crowding out native species. Theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re also accelerating erosion along urban creeks. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We prefer plants that have dense root systems, that can hold the shoreline together,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;But Himalayan balsam has a very shallow root system and actually increases erosion.â&#x20AC;? Yellow iris has a more complex root system, but not as sturdy as native shrubs. It can also be toxic for birds and animals, and Robert said there have been documented cases of livestock dying after eating the plants in agricultural ditches. And itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not going away: in some areas, the iris has become so proliďŹ c volunteers have had to throw in the trowel. â&#x20AC;&#x153;In some places weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve either lost the ďŹ ght or we havenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t
found an effective management strategy,â&#x20AC;? Robert said. Thankfully, the pink-ďŹ&#x201A;owered Himalayan balsam is somewhat easier: Roberts said once itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s gone, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s generally gone for good. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s very easy to remove and, since itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s an annual, if you can get it before it goes to seed youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve done enough to remove it from the area,â&#x20AC;? Robert said. The City Stream Watch wrapped up its six removal events on July 24, focusing on the balsam because it was already in ďŹ&#x201A;ower. â&#x20AC;&#x153;This is our last chance to remove it before it goes to seed,â&#x20AC;? Robert said. Although the donationfunded events are now ďŹ nished, Robert said there is still time to remove yellow iris if more is found over the summer. â&#x20AC;&#x153;If we discover any additional yellow iris sites â&#x20AC;Ś then it is possible that we may schedule a removal at a later date,â&#x20AC;? he said.

Arts â&#x20AC;&#x201C; The streets of Metcalfe are a little brighter this summer thanks to a new set of murals along the Victoria Street bridge. Artist Jen Wyngaarden painted four new panels this spring to match the set that were installed last summer as part of a Metcalfe Community Association initiative. The $6,000 project started last year, and included the installation of four lanterns on the main street as well as the murals. Wyngaarden said the new panels build on the first setâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s historic theme. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It was a continuation of the previous panels which show the historical buildings in Metcalfe,â&#x20AC;? Wyngaarden said. The paintings depict Ivesonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s harness shop (now Hawleyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Corners gift shop), the continuation school that was torn down to make way for the modern public school on 8th Line Road, Simpsonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s general store on the corner of 8th Line and Victoria, and a blacksmith shop that was housed in the vacant building where the Fresh bistro was supposed to open. It also includes an old school bus, which community association member Kelly Fekete said general store owner Mr. Simpson used to drive teachers to and from the school. Fekete provided most of Wyngaardenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s inspiration for the new mural, being something of an expert in Metcalfe history. â&#x20AC;&#x153;My secondary hat is a volunteer at the Osgoode Township museum, so Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve become the Metcalfe guru,â&#x20AC;? Fekete said.
NEW LOCATION
Fekete said the association is considering a change of location for the panels, which were designed to fit the long, narrow concrete walls on either side of the overpass. The city only loaned the association that space for five
years, and Fekete said it has been difficult to find enough people to take the panels down for the winter. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We have to take them up and down because the sidewalk cleaner would scrape them and damage them,â&#x20AC;? Fekete said. The association is considering a proposal to move them to the Metcalfe fairgrounds, although the board hasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t approached the fair organizers yet. Wyngaarden said moving the murals would be a shame, because the murals were painted with the bridge in mind; a mural in the fairgrounds would have had a different strategy altogether.

Arctic adventure eye-opening THE OTTAWA for high school students
Mayorâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Report
By Jim Watson
Throughout my travels around our city, I have the opportunity to meet many people; some of them call our city home while others are visiting from abroad. One of my favorite questions to ask them is what is their favorite attraction in Ottawa? The answers I hear most: Parliament Hill, the Rideau Canal, and the Byward Market, all share the commonality of being close to the Ottawa River. Whether called The Ottawa River, Rivière des Outaouais or Kichesippi, the waterway on the banks of which our national capital was built has been a gathering place, the subject and inspiration for artists, and a constant source of beauty in our cityâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s history. With the 150th anniversary of Confederation in 2017 approaching, the need to protect the health and vibrance of this waterway for future generations is increasingly clear. That is why in 2010 Council approved the Ottawa River Action Plan (ORAP), an aggressive and comprehensive plan for the Ottawa River consisting of 17 projects that set out to: s -AINTAIN A HEALTHY AQUATIC ECOSYSTEM s %NSURE COMPLIANCE WITH AND EXCEED REGULATORY requirements s /PTIMIZE RECREATIONAL USE AND REDUCE BEACH CLOSURES s $EVELOP A LONG TERM STRATEGY TO GUIDE AND PRIORITIZE actions Working together with our federal and provincial counterparts we have made tremendous progress. We have reduced combined sewer overďŹ&#x201A;ows signiďŹ cantly in recent years â&#x20AC;&#x201C; by more than 80% but, there is still more work to do. Last year, despite our progress, 205 million litres of untreated waste and waste water still made its way into our cityâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s most important waterway and a big storm this June caused a large overďŹ&#x201A;ow. It is troubling that in the 21st century we still have raw sewage overďŹ&#x201A;ows going into a treasured waterway, ďŹ&#x201A;owing right behind the Parliament Buildings nonetheless. Our current infrastructure is unable to cope with the volume of waste and waste water produced after heavy rain falls which causes these sewer overďŹ&#x201A;ows. To prevent this, the third phase of ORAP includes building the #OMBINED 3EWAGE 3TORAGE 4UNNEL WHICH WILL GREATLY EXPAND OUR ability to store combined sewer overďŹ&#x201A;ow that can then be treated and returned safely to the Ottawa River. This project would help stop almost all raw sewage from ďŹ&#x201A;owing into the Ottawa River. R0012817284

News - Immaculata High School student Michaela Norgren believes everyone should visit the Arctic at least once in their life. â&#x20AC;&#x153;To be in places people may not have walked or experienced in 100 years, the Arctic is unique â&#x20AC;&#x201C; there is no place like it,â&#x20AC;? Norgren said on July 24. The 17-year-old Alta Vista resident had been back for just one day from what she described as the experience of a lifetime, Students on Ice. The program takes high school students from around the world for a twoweek adventure to the Arctic for a rare and informative learning opportunity. Norgren was one of five Ottawa students lucky enough to take part in the program this year, including one student from Manotick. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It was such a humbling experience,â&#x20AC;? she said. When asked what she loved the most about the expedition, the young girl said it was hard to put into words â&#x20AC;&#x201C; but she did say she wants everyone in the world to know itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a delicate place that no one should take for granted. The experience, she added, has confirmed her plans to not only pursue a career in environmental sciences, but to utilize her knowledge to help make the world a better place. Norgrenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; recollection of her 14-day journey was one echoed by all 87 of the students who participated. Fellow Ottawan and Students on Ice participant Jack Patterson said being in the Arctic made him more aware of the need for conservation. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We need to put the effort in,â&#x20AC;? he said. The Barrhaven student said he plans to reach out to friends and family to make small changes, in hopes that it catches on in his community. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Then the small changes can make a

Fresh back from a two-week expedition in the Arctic, Ottawa teens Michaela Norgren and Jack Patterson could barely put into words how much they enjoyed their trip to Nunavit and Greenland this summer. huge impact,â&#x20AC;? Patterson said. Since 2000, the Students on Ice Arctic expedition has influenced the lives of 3,000 students. To participate in the trip, it costs each student $10,000, which many receive help with through scholarships from Students on Ice and partners of the organization. Geoff Green, founder and leader of the expeditions, said even though he has been taking students to the Arctic for more than 14 years, every year he learns something new. After the trip, the education and support from Students on Ice does not end, Green added. He said the organization helps support students realize their educational goals, helps nurture prospects, gives the teenagers ideas and help with their next steps in life. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s everything from scholarship to personal help,â&#x20AC;? Green said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;If a student wants to call, we are there to listen.â&#x20AC;? Partnering for the first time this year with Parks Canada, the trip took the students from Ottawa to explore the communities, coasts, fiords and islands of the Torngat Mountains National Park in Labrador and the southern and western coasts of Greenland , all while ac-
quiring knowledge from 45 educators, scientists, artists, Inuit leaders and polar experts. Both Patterson and Norgren said learning in the environment was surreal and watching the scientists and teachers in the environment is better than anything they could have learned in a classroom. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The teachersâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; passion for learning was inspiring,â&#x20AC;? Norgren said. Green agreed. â&#x20AC;&#x153;To see experts in their field, and see how passionate they are â&#x20AC;&#x201C; thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s amazing,â&#x20AC;? Green said. The trip will result in more than just memories for the students. Working in collaboration with Parks Canada, the Students on Ice organization will be creating a 10 minute documentary which will screen at the World Parks Conference in the fall. The video will highlight not only the trip, but also the Torngat Mountains National Park, showcasing one of Canadaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s great parks, said Alan Latourelle, chief executive officer for Parks Canada. Photos, videos and information about the trip as well as upcoming trips are available at studentsonice.com.

T
he suggestion to rename the StrandherdArmstrong Bridge â&#x20AC;&#x153;Vimy Bridgeâ&#x20AC;? has turned into a political football for Ottawaarea councillors, MPs and MPPs. Ever since it was first proposed by two branches of the Royal Canadian Legion, politicians have been quick to let citizens (voters) know they support the idea. How could they not? The Battle of Vimy Ridge is one of Canadaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s greatest military victories, fought during the First World War in 1917. More than 3,500 Canadians were killed in the battle, which is remembered as an significant event in the history of our country, marking its birth as a truly independent nation. Vimy Bridge would be a fitting name for south Ottawaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s new bridge, a â&#x20AC;&#x153;remarkable structureâ&#x20AC;? situated in the nationâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s capital and one deserving a title of national import, says Gloucester South-Nepean Coun. Steve Desroches. But that doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t mean we shouldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t consider other suggestions.
Council has latched onto the name only a few days after it was suggested, and later championed by Nepean-Carleton MP Pierre Poilievre. While politicians have almost universally jumped on the Vimy Bridge band-wagon, not all residents are convinced the name is the best choice. A member of the Manotick legion asked why the city must reach back almost a century in time for a bridge name, and not offer any serious consideration to more recent conflicts such as the war in Afghanistan. On Poilievreâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Facebook page, one commenter pointed out it was strange to name a bridge plagued with years of construction problems after a nationbuilding moment in our history. Thankfully, all suggestions for renaming the bridge must go through a commemorative naming process, which includes a 30-day public consultation. Whatever name ends up being chosen, it will still be a good bridge, and we will always honour our veterans.

lease excuse me if you havenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t heard back from me lately. Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve been buried under a pile of clean laundry. The truth is, my nanny left us in early June. She was part-time, employed to look after our preschool-aged daughter and help with daily domestic tasks. She cleaned the kitchen, made meals, vacuumed and folded and put away laundry daily. God bless her, she was industrious! I initially tried and failed to replace her. And then, with all the summer travel and activities and a toilet-training two-year-old, I decided to cut my freelance workload and â&#x20AC;&#x153;take the summer off with the kids.â&#x20AC;? Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve had some good times, sure. Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve been camping, visiting, and gone to museums. Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve gone to the
park, the beach and sometimes we just hang out in the backyard. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s when weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re inside thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s the problem. A quick glance around any single room in my house and youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re realize Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m severely lacking on the domestic front. I try hard, I really do. When my first child was born a decade ago, I taught myself to cook. Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve been tent camping my entire life, so surely keeping on top of dishes should be easy. And weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re not passionate about clothes or shopping, so we should be

No. At home, I spend every waking hour cleaning a kitchen that never quite seems to get clean, folding laundry that never quite makes it into drawers before I find itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s gone back through the cycle of wear-soilwash-dry again, and feeding the offspring, whose appetites are never satiated. (My boys arenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t even close to adolescence and theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re already eating me out of house and home. My two-year-old has already learned how to help herself from the pantry cupboard or fridge drawers and sheâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s constantly in there).

Probably a good idea, unless, of course, I can find a really great nanny, ideally one who can instill values of fidelity into our socks. Because, if I never have to match a pair of socks again, well, I may just consider giving nanny a raise.

IN THE MATTER OF THE ONTARIO HERITAGE ACT Notice of Intention to Designate The Corporation of the City of Ottawa on July 9, 2014 established its intention to designate the Horticulture Building, 957 Bank Street, Ottawa under Part IV of the Ontario Heritage Act for its cultural heritage value. Horticulture Building Description of Historic Place LAURA MUELLER/METROLAND
Do you have your fresh garlic yet?
The Horticulture Building, 957 Bank Street, is a two storey brick exhibition building constructed in 1914 at Lansdowne Park, the Central Canada Exhibition grounds from 1888 until 2010. Lansdowne Park is located in the Glebe neighbourhood of Ottawa. The building was moved from its original location to its current location in 2012. Changes to the north end of the building, including a new entrance on the north façade and new entry bays were undertaken in 2013-2014. Heritage Value The Horticulture Building is associated with the evolution of Lansdowne Park as an exhibition grounds. The first agricultural fair in what is now Ontario took place in Niagara-on-the-Lake before 1800 and soon after many other towns began hosting their own fairs. In 1846, the provincial government organized an annual provincial exhibition that was hosted by a different community each year. Ottawa hosted the provincial exhibition at Lansdowne Park in 1875, 1879 and 1887. In 1888, Ottawa began hosting its own fair called the Central Canada Exhibition.
The award-
Opened in 1914, the Horticulture Building is the one of a number of several permanent structures built at Lansdowne Park in the 19th and 20th century. From construction it served as an exhibition hall in the summer and a curling club, originally housing four natural rinks, in the winter. It was also the site of press rooms and a Banquet Hall where dignitaries visiting the exhibition were entertained. Alan Keefer, a prominent Ottawa architect, designed the building. Keefer studied architecture at MIT in the United States, returning to Ottawa to practice in 1905. Keefer was responsible for commercial and institutional designs including the Ashbury College, the Ottawa Ladies College, he is best known for designing many notable houses in Rockcliffe Park including Waterstone, 725 Acacia Avenue, constructed for Frederic and Gertrude Bronson and Lindenelm, 11 Crescent Road constructed for Wilson Southam and his own house at 741 Acacia Avenue. He also served as Assistant Chief Architect of the Department of Public Works.

Silver Spring Farm, operated entirely by volunteers, is located 2 km. from Bayshore Shopping Centre, west of the Queensway Carleton Hospital.
Architecturally, the Horticulture Building is an excellent example of the Prairie style in Canada, and is a rare institutional building designed in the style. The Prairie style originated in the American Midwest in the late 19th century and is considered one of the first truly North American architectural styles. Typical of the style, the Horticulture Building features rectilinear massing, a horizontal profile, flat roof, wide overhanging eaves, and windows with a geometric muntin pattern. OBJECTIONS Any person wishing to object to this designation may do so by letter, outlining the reasons for the objection and any other relevant information. This letter must be received by the Clerk of the City of Ottawa either by registered mail or personally delivered within 30 days of the publication of this notice. When a notice of objection has been received, the Council of the City of Ottawa will refer the matter to the Conservation Review Board for a Hearing and a Report.
Your purchase will help the Ottawa-Carleton Association for Persons with Developmental Disabilities (OCAPDD) to continue its important work.

even impossible — to rehome. One of the key resources the OHS relies on to relieve the population pressure and the stress that it creates is foster programs. Recovering animals, stressed animals, and others not quite ready for adoption need a place to stay outside the shelter. Cats, of course, are often the biggest concern and when there are no temporary homes, it is a huge problem. The OHS created the Kitten Brigade, a fast-track foster volunteer program to open up more homes in this busy season. Currently, the OHS is short some recruits for the brigade this year.
Please note: The Ottawa Humane Society has many other companion animals available for adoption. Featured animals are adopted quickly! To learn more about adopting an animal from the Ottawa Humane Society please contact us:

Overcrowding is a huge threat in animal sheltering. It’s among the most detrimental factors to animal health, stressing the animals, not to mention the staff and volunteers. Stressed animals are much more likely to become ill. Animals that are ill can’t be adopted and a downward cycle is created. Unlike many humane societies, the Ottawa Humane Society serves as a municipal animal shelter under a purchase of service agreement with the city. Also, not all shelters are openadmission shelters. That means the OHS takes in all animals at all times, no matter how old, sick or otherwise difficult — or

News – Manotick’s Black Dog Bistro got away relatively unscathed on Sunday, July 20 when a cigarette fire under its porch was drowned before it could do much damage. Three other properties were not so lucky: on Wednesday, July 23 a house in Orleans suffered $15,000 in damages because of a discarded cigarette in a compost pile, and on Thursday, July 24 two homes in Stittsville went up in smoke when a cigarette was left in a planter. “The melted planter was found stuck to the deck; the decking was weaker and had much heavier charring in the immediate area of the planter,” Fire Services spokesperson Marc Messier said. “The fire traveled up the back
of the house and breached the units.” That fire left seven adults homeless and caused $700,000 in damages. Messier said the three fires should serve as a reminder to Ottawa residents to be mindful of where they butt out: • Do not extinguish cigarettes in plant pots, which often contain a mixture of peat moss, shredded wood and bark that can easily ignite. • If you live in a high rise building, do not toss your cigarette off your balcony as it could land on a balcony below and start a fire. • Do not discard cigarette butts under decks. Dry debris underneath could ignite. • Use large, deep ashtrays that can’t be knocked over. A large can filled with sand works well. • Empty ashes into a metal container – not the garbage can – and put it outside. • If people have been smoking in your home, check behind chair and sofa cushions for cigarette butts before going to bed. The Manotick restaurant was closed the day its fire broke out,
and was saved by patrons enjoying lunch at the Mill Tavern next door. People on the patio noticed smoke coming from underneath the building’s front porch. “Someone at the Tavern saw it, and put it out with a garden hose,” said manager Kristin Janz, who added the patron was a firefighter by trade. “Our neighbours were looking out for us.” Ottawa Fire Services were alerted around 1:20 p.m. on Sunday, July 20, and said the cause of the fire was an improperly discarded cigarette – something Messier said investigators determined by following a fire’s “V” pattern back to the cause, and through a process of elimination. As the Black Dog was closed at the time, Janz said she’s not sure exactly what happened. Firefighters estimated the bistro’s damage between $5,000 and $10,000. The patio was fixed early Monday morning before customers even arrived, and Janz said it hasn’t affected business at all. “It doesn’t even smell like smoke,” she said.

It was hard to beat the heat on Northcote farm
I
always had fans in New York, Mother said, sitting in a straight-back chair in the darkened kitchen. “Just plugged them in and away they went. Cooled the whole house down in minutes.” Well, there would be no fans on the farm in Northcote.
With no electricity, we had to rely on other ways to keep the old log house cool. Sometimes they worked, but most times, the heat of the summer won out. The Findlay Oval had already been rolled out to the summer kitchen on two logs, and we tried to keep the door
Check What’s Happening This Week Wouldn’t it be nice to share the fun with somebody who doesn’t get out that often? www.citizenadvocacy.org R0012756599-0619
MARY COOK Mary Cook’s Memories closed between the summer and regular kitchens, but that didn’t always work either. Mother had been working in the garden before dinner, before the sun was at its highest, and she came in with the dish pan full of fresh yellow beans, bunches of carrots, and some green onions. Of course, she weeded while she was out there too, which added to her complaints about the heat. It was almost pitch dark in the kitchen. When the heat of the summer came with a vengeance, Mother immediately began the almost impossible task of keeping the house cool. Her first job was to take quilts
out of the trunk where they had been stored after winter, and cover each window in the kitchen. There they hung, shutting out the blasts of the sun that hit the old house from early morning until after our suppers at night, and turning the room almost pitch black. To let a bit of light into the kitchen, Mother took a safety pin and fastened up the tiniest corner of each blanket, to take away from the total darkness. Father wasn’t the least bit happy with this arrangement, and said there had to be other ways to cool down the house. “Yes,” Mother retorted sharply, “if we had electric-
ity, we could have fans.” As if poor Father could do anything about that. It was hard enough to find the money to buy coal oil for the lamps. Of course, there was no covering the windows in the summer kitchen. That would have served no purpose with the cook stove blasting away from early morning until after supper. So the main kitchen was always the coolest room in the house, and that was where Mother had collapsed that day, with her face beatred, and the sweat rolling off the end of her nose. The noon meal was cooking out in the summer kitchen, and Father and the brothers had already washed up at the basin on the bench at the back door. When they opened the door where Mother, Audrey and I were trying to cool off, a blast of hot air swept into the room like a blowtorch. “Shut the door,” Mother yelled. With great effort Mother
got off the chair, and as if bracing herself for battle, stood in front of the door separating the two kitchens, making sure Audrey and I were right behind her, and the three of us went out like a bolt of lightning to keep the cool air in, and the heat out. Of course, there was no such thing as a salad plate for dinner at noon hour. Father had to have his meat, potatoes, vegetables, and dessert regardless what the big Supertest thermometer said, nailed to the outside frame of the back door. Father and the brothers loaded their plates as if it was their last meal on earth. And as soon as their plates were cleaned, they loaded up again. “How anyone can eat in this weather is beyond me,” Mother said, as she cut a raisin pie into four pieces. See Mother, page 20

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’re off to a great start,” says Manager Dave ‘Cowboy’ McColl. “We’ve had all positive feedback so far.”
“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.”
There are three levels of amazing finishes. You can choose the level of dazzle that suits you best.
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.
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.
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.” And don’t forget friends and family. Suds Car Wash Gift An Cards Car make a thoughtful and practical present for any occasion. sion You can get Gift Cards online too, at www.sudscarwash. ca.

Draw eighteen five-centimetre (two-inch) circles, at least five centimetres (two inches) apart, onto two pieces of parchment paper cut to fit baking sheets. Flip the paper over. Pavlovas: In a large bowl using an electric mixer, beat the egg whites, cream of tartar and salt until soft peaks form. Gradually beat in the sugar 15 ml (1 tbsp) at a time; beat until the mixture is stiff and glossy. Spoon about 15 ml (1 tbsp) of meringue onto each circle, making a good indentation with the back of a spoon into each. Place the baking sheets on two oven racks in 120 C (250 F) oven. Bake for about 50 minutes, switching halfway through, until crisp on the surface. Turn off the oven, and open the door a crack. Let the meringues cool for about two hours. Peaches and cream filling: In a small deep bowl, beat the cream until soft peaks form. Beat in the sugar and vanilla until thick. Fold in the diced peaches. Immediately fill the meringues with the cream filling. Top each with a peach slice and mint leaf. Serve immediately. Foodland Ontario

lated over a very long time, she was out in the summer kitchen, redding up the dinner table. Her face was getting red again, and she was swiping it with the corner of her apron once more. But there was work to be done. Her rest was over. I wondered if she would again, later in the day, go back to the cooler kitchen, and would I, once more, be able to use the Renfrew Mercury as a fan, and would I then get another nickel out of the egg money sugar bowl for my effort? All I could do was wait for the hot summer day to once again take its toll, as I pictured my fast growing wealth upstairs in the corner of my hanky.

We three headed back into the cooler kitchen, which by noon hour was fast taking on the outside heat of the day, but still wasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t as hot as where Father and the brothers were forking in their dinner. Mother again collapsed into a chair, and Audrey stretched out on the creton couch, and I stood like a stick not knowing exactly where I fit into this picture. I sure hated to miss a meal, but I wanted to stay close to Mother just in case she passed out, which my sister Audrey said could happen when you were overcome with the heat. I picked up a copy of the Renfrew Mercury and stood beside Motherâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s chair and fanned her with all my might. She stopped wiping her face with the tail of her apron, and sighed with a contentment we hadnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t seen demonstrated all day. When one arm got tired I
switched to the other, and I wondered if the air I was creating was anything like the fans Mother had in New York. Well, it must have come close, because Mother told me to go to the cupboard and bring her down the sugar bowl with the egg money in it. I felt my way over to the cupboard, barely making out the bowl in the darkened room. Mother took the lid off and reached in, bringing out a coin. I could feel it was a whole nickel. â&#x20AC;&#x153;If it ever cools off, weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll take a run to Briscoeâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s and you can get yourself an ice cream cone,â&#x20AC;? she said. It was the first time I had ever been given anything out of the egg money. There was no such thing as allowances back then. I had no idea how long Mother sat in the cooler room, but when I came down stairs after going up to my bedroom and tying the nickel in the corner of my hanky, joining the few other coins I had accumu-

Busker Festival takes over Sparks Street this long weekend Michelle Nash michelle.nash@metroland.com
Arts - This August longweekend, Sparks Street will be alive with fire throwers, daredevils, world-renowned hula hoopers and magicians. The Ottawa International Busker Festival will return from July 31 to Aug. 4 with
more than 100 performers from around the world who will take over Sparks Street Mall to show off their many talents. “I love that we can bring in amazing performers from around the world and people can just walk up and enjoy the show,” said Brian Wilson, the show’s producer. “It’s an R0012816085
amazing festival which makes performances accessible to everyone.” A performer himself, Wilson said the draw for the buskers is the reaction from the crowd. “When the crowds come out, it’s a really, really great feeling,” he said. The free show is only a block away from Parliament Hill, which Wilson credits to why the weekend event draws both tourists and Ottawans alike who are interested in checking out the latest quirky or daring stunts from the festival’s performers. Wilson said this year, Busker Festival fans can expect Becky Hoops to return, as well as the Checkerboard Guy, who is part-comedian, part-circus performer and part-live-action cartoon character. Wilson said the festival draws great performers because this is what they love. “It’s what they do and what they love,” he said. “They tour all around the world to perform for people.” New this year will be the Midnight Madness Show
– which will be a combination of busker favourites and a burlesque show for adults 18 years of age and older. Wilson said the addition of the midnight show was to do something a little different this year. “We wanted to put on a show, something that people haven’t seen before,” Wilson said. Wilson said the show will take place indoors with the location and ticket prices still to be determined. All the daytime shows, Wilson added are family-friendly. A fire show will take place on the Friday, Aug. 1 at 10:30 p.m. and the grand finale show will take place on Aug. 4 at 6 p.m. More information about the festival is available at ottawabuskerfestival.com.

Sound of Light to take place over Ottawa River Michelle Nash michelle.nash@metroland.com
News - Ottawa residents will have a unique way to watch and support a local
hospital at this year’s Casino du Lac-Leamy Sound of Light show. This year, Casino du Lac-Leamy has changed the location of its annual
fireworks festival from the casino grounds to the Canadian Museum of History on the shore of the Ottawa River in Gatineau. The show will take

place from Aug. 2 to 16 and as an added bonus, the Montfort Hospital Foundation has partnered with the casino to host a fundraiser at Nepean Point. According to the foundation’s president, Christine Sigouin, the fundraiser will offer a chance to view the light show in Ottawa; all while helping raise funds for the hospital. “It will be an amazing site with a spectacular view,” Sigouin said. “It’s the opportunity to come out for a great cause.” Tickets to view the show at Nepean Point are $5, with all the proceeds going to the foundation and can be purchased before the show or by calling the foundation at 613748-4920. Children under 11 are free. Located directed behind the National Gallery of Canada, Sigouin said she thinks this year the new site offers Ottawa residents a great opportunity to view the festival a little closer to home. “It will be an amazing view, people won’t be disappointed,” she said. The gates open at 6 p.m. and the foundation plans to have activities to entertain guests before the show begins. However, if people prefer to cross the river, Casino du Lac-Leamy spokeswoman Erika Lalonde said there will be plenty to do on the Gatineau side at the official Sound and Light show site. This year, the pre-show activities include a SAQ Bistro and SAQ Bistro Express, dinner and show packages with the National Bank Gourmet Evenings and a number of food trucks on the site for the first time. The site opens at 6 p.m. There will be entertainment on the Tim Hortons stage right up until the firework show, and a new Gladius Game Zone for children. The firework show starts at 9:15 p.m. and will be launched from the Ottawa River. This year there will be
four new teams from two new countries and two returning countries participating. • Glorius Entertainment Production Ltd of Hong Kong will present on Aug. 2. • Garden City Display Fireworks of Canada will present on Aug. 6. *Grupo Luso Pirotecnia of Portugal will present on Aug. 9 • Sugyp SA of Switzerland will present on Aug. 13 • The Casino du LacLeamy’s Grande finale will take place on Aug. 16 The winner will be revealed during the final show. Tickets at the museum are also $5 per person, per show with children 11 years-old and under free. Spectators are invited to bring their chairs and blankets to watch the show. Temporary road and sidewalk closures during the event on Aug. 2,6, 9, 13 and 16: • Sections of the recreational trails along both side of the Ottawa River will be closed and patrolled from 7 to 10 p.m. in the following areas: the Ottawa River pathway between Bank Street and the locks behind Parliament Hill, between Alexandra Bridge and the locks via Pioneer Road, under Major’s Hill Park, the Voyageurs pathway between Victoria Street and the Alexandra Bridge • The Alexandra Bridge – both traffic lanes and the pedestrian boardwalk – will be closed from 8:30 p.m. to 10:15 p.m. • Murray Street at MacKenzie Avenue and Sussex Drive will be closed during the shows. Animals and sporting equipment (bicycles, rollerblades and skateboards) are prohibited on the site. For more information, call the Sound of Light Team at 819 771 3389 or visit the event’s web site at feux.qc.ca. For more information about the Montfort Hospital Foundation, visit hopitalmontfort.com.
