Manotick spa to give Weaver House a makeover emma.jackson@metroland.com
News - Owners of a local spa hope to extend their beauty services to their new location. The vacant, city-owned home known as Weaver House in Manotick’s Dickinson Square has long been in need of a makeover. Charmaine and Jon Cianciullo have already started
the process, clearing brush from around the building and parking lot at 1131 Mill St. as they prepare to give the heritage home the dash of lipstick it deserves. “It has so much charm, when you look past how it’s been neglected,” Charmaine Cianciullo said. “We want to bring it back to its former glory.” The couple currently run the Peppermint Spa

out of their family home on Rideau Valley Drive south of Manotick. But by Dec. 1 the pair hopes to be fully operational in the heart of the village. “I’m so excited to join in the community events like Dickinson Days and Taste of Manotick,” said Cianciullo, who is an aesthetician by trade. “The community has been so welcoming.” The spa uses all-organic ingredients to make its products on site. Right now, the home-based spa can’t accommodate groups or even pairs for some services, but once the Weaver House location opens the owners can offer party services and better scheduling for clients. The spa will also have an acupuncturist and a naturopath working from the building throughout the week. Cianciullo is looking to add a holistic nutritionist to the roster, as well.

Osgoode candidates gather for youth meeting Emma Jackson emma.jackson@metroland.com
News - It was less a question of policy than of personality at an allcandidates information session hosted by the Osgoode Youth Association on Aug. 26. Eight of nine candidates registered to run in Ward 20 this fall came to the youth centre to explain their platforms and encourage young people to vote. Candidates Tom Dawson, George Darouze, George Wright, Jean Johnston-McKitterick, Davis Jermacans, Liam Maguire, Bob Masaro and Kim Sheldrick all attended the event. Candidate Bruce Faulkner cancelled at the last minute. Each candidate had ďŹ ve minutes to talk about their background and their platform in this fall’s election that takes place Oct. 27. When it came to youth policy, most of the candidates were generally aligned. They all agreed, for example, that transportation needs to be improved, but that full OC Transpo service is not the answer. They all wanted to see more rec-

(Maguire was adamant that the cost of playing sports must be reduced to increase accessibility, while Dawson and Sheldrick wanted to see a splash pad in the ward.) Several councillors mentioned the need for a youth advisory council
that works with the new councillor to bring youth issues to the forefront, and others noted the importance of making sure Osgoode Ward gets its fair share of attention – and funding – around the council table. And they all agreed that youth must be engaged in the process. The meeting was not a debate; rather it was a chance for voters aged 18 to 30 to see what candidates can

event I was sticking around and I heard lots of good feedback from the youth themselves. They were chatting about how much more informed they felt about the process and the candidates. The event had given them lots to think about.â€? Program co-ordinator Carley Scharf also felt the youth were energized by the chance to chat with candidates and get to know them on a personal level. “I think for young voters it’s not only about the policy, it’s about the person,â€? Scharf said. “You can get someone with great policy but who isn’t relatable, isn’t down to earth.â€? She said she heard youth chatting about which candidates had made a good impression, and which ones had fallen short – and several young people said they were reconsidering their original choice. The candidates will tackle policy platforms relating to the entire community at several all-candidate debates this fall. The ďŹ rst is scheduled for Wed., Sept. 24 at the Metcalfe community centre. The Osgoode Community Association will host a debate on Wed., Oct. 1 at the Osgoode community centre, and Greely Community Association will host another the following Wed., Oct. 8 in the Greely community centre. TEACH ME HOW TO DOUGIE
Outgoing Coun. Doug Thompson opened the event with a short presentation about the role of a city councillor. “There’s no apprenticeship for this job,â€? said Thompson, who has been involved in local politics for more than 30 years. He will retire this fall after decades of leading Osgoode Township as councillor and mayor. “Whether you like it or not, politicians do have a great deal of power. There’s a huge responsibility that goes with this job.â€? He told the candidates to expect hundreds of calls and emails from residents asking about everything from garbage pick-up to road issues to neighbour disputes. Thompson said a personal response is the best way to relieve tension in the community. Thompson said, most of all, a candidate must make informed decisions at council or face the lasting ramiďŹ cations of their error – something he said the current council is dealing with through the botched Orgaworld contract. “A politician lives and dies by their vote,â€? he said. “You can make changes that have a lasting impact.â€?

Items have been coming in from across the village, from spa-quality bath robes to free oil changes. “I just feel it’s really come together,� she said. “I’m proud to be a Manotick person right now.� Shulz said the Lions raised about $1,500 from their silent auction last year, and this year she hopes to do the same. They’re expecting at least 150 people to enjoy the evening, and Schulz said if it goes well the free dinner may become a permanent fixture of the event. The curling club is located at 5519 South River Rd. in Manotick.

Community - There’s nothing like a free meal with friends to make you feel appreciated. That’s the idea behind the Manotick Lions’ decision to offer a free dinner for all guests at this year’s Oktoberfest party on Sept. 13. “It’s to thank the community for all the support for the 30 years we’ve had together,� said Manotick Lion Kris Schulz. She said local businesses and organizations have come out in droves to support the event, so the Lions decided to support them, too. “We thought, this is crazy,
why don’t we make this an appreciation night. Let’s go for it.� The annual shindig opens at 5:30 p.m. at the Manotick Curling Club, with the knackwurst and sauerkraut dinner starting at 6 p.m. The menu includes hot potato salad, red cabbage, pretzels and dessert. Drinks can be purchased at the bar – including craft beer from Ottawa’s Turtle Island brewery. After dinner, guests can waltz the night away with the Ottawa Rube 20-piece band until 10 p.m. There will be a silent auction throughout the evening, with proceeds going to the Manotick Lions for commu-

Spa buys city building after Christmas store plans fall through Continued from page 1
“We’re treating the body as a whole and bringing health back to the beauty industry,� she said. The city accepted the couple’s bid to purchase the house this spring after another business owner’s proposal to install a Christmas store fell through. The city has been trying to sell or lease five properties in Dickinson Square since it purchased them in 2007. The Manotick Mill Quarter Community Development Corporation, owned wholly by the city, has a mandate to recover the $2.1 million spent to acquire the properties (including a lot on the north-east side of the square that cannot be sold for development). For the past two years, the corporation’s board has been consulting with residents, community groups and business leaders to determine what the village wants to see in the square. Last summer, the city sought requests for offers on all five buildings. Successful offers had to conform to strict criteria, including minimum bids and a proven ability to manage a business or organization inside a public heritage square. Weaver House was originally sold to Orleans businesswoman Lorna Challis, who planned to open a yearround Christmas store in the building. But personal circumstances prevented the sale from closing, so the

property went back on the market for 30 days in May. The city did not require a minimum bid in the second listing, and the home sold for $349,000 rather than the original $400,000 asking price. “We determined to go out a little bit lower,� said Rideau-Goulbourn Coun. Scott Moffatt, who chairs the MMQCDC corporation’s board of directors. “We wanted to put it out at a price that would get some interest.� The sale closed Aug. 18. Two other properties have also been sold to local developer Joe Princiotta, and Moffatt expects those agreements to close by September. Princiotta purchased the Ayres Building – currently occupied by Rural Ottawa South Support Services – as well as a vacant property on Clapp Lane, on which he will build an independent living centre. Dickinson House and the Carriage Shed had no successful bids during the request for offers process, and will likely go back on the market in early 2015 once the MMQCDC board reassesses its sales strategy, Moffatt said. Moffatt said he’s excited to see Weaver House getting fixed up for the betterment of the village. “They have a pre-existing client base from all over, and they will come to Dickinson Square. It will bring new people to Manotick,� Moffatt said. “That’s kind of exciting. That’s exactly what we wanted.�

Greely resident Joshua Carriere, 10, came out on top with his Green Monster, which belonged to his grandparents in the 1960s. Previous winner Aiden Vena from Merrickville came in second, and Emily MacDonald from Kingston took third place. But speed wasn’t the only trophy-worthy attribute at the competition on Sunday, Aug. 24. Awards for originality and

Friends Chloe and Sophia Shepherd, Claire Borne and Madeline drove their Manoshark cart to first place for originality, with Ross and Cole Peever taking second in their recycled products vehicle and Adele Rodrigue-Hall winning third with her pink flower cart.

Keep going wild for charity
A
llowing yourself to be drenched by a bucket of ice-cold water might not be the first thing that springs to mind when you think of something to pass the time. Yet like those who strip down to their bathing suits to take the frigid polar bear plunge on New Year’s Day every year, there is something more than lunacy behind the Ice Bucket Challenge craze that’s sweeping the globe. In fact, a day doesn’t go by without some notable Ottawa resident or worldwide superstar of the screen, stage or sporting field sitting in front of a camera, recording their moment of bravery to raise money to support amyotrophic lateral sclerosis research. So far, thanks to both the well-publicized antics of celebrities or the more humble courage of lessfamous individuals, more than $100 million has been raised for ALS – better known as Lou Gehrig’s disease – research worldwide in the month of August. That’s an impressive number that includes $10 million donated to the ALS Society of Canada alone. The results of the campaign are startling. Ac-
cording to the ALS Association, a mere $2.8 million was raised during the same period last year. That’s a huge difference, one that can be attributed to the Ice Bucket Challenge. This begs the question of why fundraisers from other organizations, particularly those connected to diseases such as cancer, HIV/AIDS, multiple sclerosis or diabetes, don’t put their heads together to come up with similarly bizarre challenges to raise money. If people can return year after year to take the polar bear plunge or grow a moustache for Movember, often backed by charitable pledges, surely some sort of strange challenge or feat would attract potential donors to pony up for a thrill and spectacle similar to the Ice Bucket Challenge. Yes, there are runs, hikes, bicycle tours and swims to raise money for one cause or another, but nothing that has caught the collective imagination like a brief, icy bath. The people involved with ALS have thrown down a fundraising challenge. It will be exciting to see what those who accept it can dream up.

Getting angry about cable – it’s a Canadian thing
I
f you’ve been around this country for a while, you’ll know what really bothers Canadians, what really gets them angry, what inspires them to write letters to their MP and nasty words in the comment sections on the Internet. Hint: It’s not the Middle East. It’s not homelessness. It’s not the constitution. If you guessed cable TV, you win the Snickers bar. It appears to drive us crazy. A few years ago when the cable companies introduced negative option billing, you would have thought World War III had broken out. That gigantic public uproar disappeared after the cable companies backed down, but there is always a new uproar waiting to happen. A medium-sized uproar emerges
every January when the Super Bowl game is approaching. There are loud complaints that we can’t see American commercials on our Canadian TV sets. Canadian broadcasters are allowed to cut them out and insert their own commercials. People really hate that. If you want a definition of the term “First World problem,� you probably couldn’t do any better that. It’s the Canadian Radio-television and Telecommunications Commission that makes decisions about this

and Canadians are constantly beseeching it to do one thing or another. We want more of this. We want less of that. We can’t understand why the cable companies can’t give us more of this and less of that. If you find this tiresome, there is bad news. The whole debate is starting up again. This comes out of the release of a document by the CRTC discussing possible changes to the way things are done. The so-called pick-and-pay system is one of the options that will come up in hearings next month. That will raise the whole question again of whether we should pay for channels we don’t watch, and whether we can add new channels without being forced to purchase additional channels.

I suppose it’s not an unimportant issue. The cable industry, along with some smaller channel operators, argues the current bundling method is necessary to the survival of channels that serve smaller audiences. Some of us love those little channels. Since the CRTC has a mandate to ensure a certain amount of Canadian content, that argument makes a certain amount of sense. It would make more sense if most of the specialty channels didn’t resort to seeking an audience by abandoning their specialty in favour of old sitcoms, horror movies, rom-coms or reality shows. To compound the problem is the fact many Canadians think, in these matters, more like consumers than citizens. The public good is nice, but it doesn’t get you the Golf Channel. Nagging away in the background is the idea that TV as we know it will be obsolete in a few years and the CRTC will have to deal with that too.

Binge Drinking: A Major Worry for Many Parents. Heading off to college or university is a life changing experience for both the student and the parent. You try to prepare them for all situations, however, you know that during those first few weeks, your son or daughter will be introduced to new challenges which can include pressure to party hard and drink lots of alcohol. It is well known that alcohol abuse is common on college/university campuses. Over 52 thousand, 19 to 24 year olds report binge drinking at least once every month. This behaviour likely contributed to the 780 alcohol related emergency room visits by 18 to 25 year olds in Ottawa. Excessive alcohol use can lead to alcohol poisoning, addiction, injuries, risky behaviour including drunk driving, unintended sex and even violence. A few drinks isn’t usually a problem, it’s the harms associated with drinking a lot of alcohol in a short time that can be quite serious, if not deadly. As a parent, you may be asking yourself why this happens. Unfortunately many students believe that binge drinking and drinking games are a normal part of the campus socializing experience. Although many young adults who are entering into college/university life may have had prior alcohol experience, they often over-estimate how much alcohol and how often their friends are really drinking; believing five to 10 drinks, three to four times a week to be the norm. The reality is that the majority of students drink far less alcohol and less often. This misperception of what constitutes an average drink is what reinforces binge drinking behaviour. Combine this misperception with positive pressure to drink, and your son or daughter may end up drinking much more than they are used to.
really will hear your advice, keep talking. Believe it or not, what you say does influence their behaviour. Try to keep the conversation going, letting them know you care and want to help.
Top 10 tips for safer Drinking 1. Going to a party; set your limit before you leave 2. Pace yourself when drinking 3. Alternate with beverages that are non-alcoholic; mocktails are great alternatives 4. Hold a glass of any kind in your hand; others won’t bug you to get another drink 5. Don’t mix the type of alcohol you drink 6. Pour your own drink; helps you track how much you are having 7. Don’t get sucked into drinking games; no one wins 8. Never leave your drink unattended 9. Stay with the same group of friends 10. Arrange a safe return home ahead of time. Intoxicated walking isn’t a safe choice
If you haven’t had conversations yet about alcohol, it’s not too late. Start by talking about how alcohol affects If you would like more information, please call your body, tips for drinking safely and how to handle the Ottawa Public Health Information Line at school pressures.

Promote your child’s self-conďŹ dence through sports and martial arts games in a Sportball class. The program introduces basic skills such as balance, large muscle development and body awareness.
Playing individual and team sports can help children develop social skills and raise self-esteem. Ottawa’s Parks Recreation and Cultural Services department offers many classes that provide these beneďŹ ts and more for any child looking to learn skills for life. The journey to higher self esteem, for some, begins and ends with martial arts. You can register for a variety of martial arts classes from the more familiar practices such as Karate and Judo, to the lesser known ones such as Kendo, Capoeira and Aikido Yoseikan. In addition to building conďŹ dence, martial arts are known to promote physical ďŹ tness, discipline, respect and self control. Participating in sports and exercise is a great way to acknowledge a child’s skill development within a supportive environment, and provides positive social relationships with teammates and coaches. Consider ball hockey, basketball or the Saturday morning sports club for a unique team experience. You’re never too young to develop these skills. Children aged three and four, can increase their athletic ability and improve conďŹ dence through sport and
City-wide Sports offers a variety of sports options for adults and children alike. Girls ‘n Women and Sport run physical activity programs that promote fun, friendship, skill development, conďŹ dence building and fair play values while learning to play in a team setting. More than sports Not into the sports scene but still want to move? Children can also expand their creative scope and gain conďŹ dence in their abilities through jazz dance; or, improve balance, coordination and selfesteem through Irish dancing. How about cheerleading for a different kind of team activity?

Chicken, zucchini enchiladas will liven up any meal Lifestyle - The word enchilada actually means “to season with chiles.� Red sauces are the most common style, but why not liven up your menu with this quick and easy recipe using a prepared Mexican green salsa made with tomatillos and green chilies. For a vegetarian option, substitute cooked black beans for chicken. Preparation time: 30 minutes. Cooking time: 30 minutes. Serves four.
corn kernels (two to three cobs) • 250 ml (1 cup) diced zucchini • 175 ml (3/4 cup) diced red pepper • 2 green onions, sliced • 500 ml (2 cups) Mexican green salsa (salsa verde) • 8, 18-centimetre (7-inch) flour tortillas • 500 ml (2 cups) shredded TexMex cheese • 375 ml (1-1/2 cups) diced field tomatoes • 125 ml (1/2 cup) chopped fresh coriander
INGREDIENTS
PREPARATION
• 15 ml (1 tbsp) vegetable oil • 250 g (8 oz) boneless skinless chicken breasts, diced • 15 ml (1 tbsp) ground cumin • 10 ml (2 tsp) ground coriander • 1 ml (1/4 tsp) pepper • 1 large clove garlic, minced • 425 ml 1-3/4 cups (425 mL) fresh
In a large skillet, heat the oil over medium-high heat. Add the chicken, cumin, coriander and pepper, and cook, stirring, for two to three minutes. Add the garlic, corn, zucchini and red pepper, and cook, stirring occasionally, for three to five minutes, or until
the chicken is lightly browned and the vegetables are slightly softened. Stir in the green onions and 125 ml (1/2 cup) of the green salsa.

Roll up the tortillas and place them seam side down in a greased three-litre (13 x 9-inch) baking dish. Pour the remaining salsa evenly over the enchiladas and top with the shredded cheese. Bake in a 190 C (375 F) oven for 25 to 30 minutes or until bubbling and golden brown. Serve garnished with the diced tomatoes and fresh coriander. Foodland Ontario

Living art helps Discovery Tour grow Sixteen stops, 34 artists on this year’s rural art route Emma Jackson emma.jackson@metroland.com
Arts - Only a select few artists can describe their work as “succulent,� but for Vicki Williams it’s the defining element. The North Gower garden designer creates “living art� with a vast variety of perennial and tropical succulent plants, which she nurtures on her front porch in the heart of the village. In an effort to promote her unique art form, Williams has joined this year’s Discovery Tour, an annual rural art route that connects patrons to 34 artists in 16 locations across the former Rideau Township over a two-day weekend in September. The tour on Sept. 13 and 14 includes a rich variety of local painters, sculptors, textile artists, jewelers, photographers and farmers. Williams is unique in that she offers art that continues to grow and change as it hangs on a wall or in a garden. “They’re more than just a flower pot,� Williams said. “This is something where you can get your hands dirty and 18
appreciate living things as art.� Her terrariums, wall hangings and vertical gardens often combine greenery with found objects like vintage picture frames, pottery and ironworks. She said her pieces range from $40 to $400, but at any price they can liven up an indoor space. “You can appreciate gardening on a really small scale,� she said. “Most of these pieces you could take to your office and have green around you.� Williams has a design background, although she said she has always loved gardening. She began her retail career with an interior decor shop near Toronto, which grew into an exterior design and garden installation business. When she moved back to her hometown of North Gower in 2010, Williams took several horticultural courses at the Guelph University campus in Kemptville and became an accredited master gardener. Today, she runs a retail shop and offers living art workshops on her enclosed front porch, showing patrons how to bring true succulence into their life and home. “Succulents are really easy for people, because you can get creative,� she said. “They’re easy to care for, easy maintenance.� Williams’ mother Eleanor Sangster will join her on the front porch at 6574 Fourth

Navigating the cancer journey New cancer care nurse helps patients through the health-care system Joseph Morin joe.morin@metroland.com
News - Linda Johnson likes people. She has worked at Winchester District Memorial Hospital (WDMH) for 30 years, and is the team leader at the hospital’s oncology department. Now, thanks to community funding, she is taking on an added role in her department. Starting this August, Johnson is the hospital’s first cancer care navigator. Cancer patients have a great deal to deal with. Often a cancer diagnosis heralds a major life-changing moment - whether someone is ready for it or not. Johnson will work with patients to deal with their physical, social, emotional, psychological, spiritual and practical needs during treatment. She’ll help cancer patients set goals, support them through the decision making process, assist to identify needs and encourage a patient to be the healthiest that they can be through their cancer journey.
Hospital CEO Cholly Boland is well aware of the need for a cancer care navigator. “When you are diagnosed with cancer your life falls apart,” he said. He explained that there are all kinds of personal issues that are affected: childcare, financial concerns and, of course, relationships. Despite the hospital’s already high standard of care, the hospital is always on the lookout for ways to improve and offer more services, he said. “We look for opportunities to expand our programs regarding cancer and like to work with community groups. The Flash a Stache committee came up with funding to make the cancer care navigator program work.” For Johnson, the job is a perfect fit. “I have worked in the hospital’s chemotherapy unit for 16 years. Every day, I see patients who need a little extra help – especially in our rural community,” Johnson said. “This navigator role is all about supportive care.” “People in the community who have been diagnosed with cancer need someone to help them,” she added. Her job is to provide supportive

THE CANADIAN TIRE SNOWSUIT FUND
News - Members of the Loyal Orange Lodge and the Royal Black Preceptory in Edwards donated more than $500 to the Winchester District Memorial Hospital this month during a 100th anniversary celebration at the small lodge on Mitch Owens Road. The donation brought the Orange Lodge’s fundraising total to nearly $4,500 over the past decade, all of which has been directed to the hospital’s dialysis unit. Each year, these funds are raised through the collection of dimes at weekly euchre parties held at the Orange Hall in Edwards. On Saturday, August 24, the weather held for a perfect afternoon barbecue and celebration of the 100th anniversary of the building. Nearly 100 visitors enjoyed sausages and ice cream while they admired the recent renovations inside the hall. Throughout the afternoon, visitors took in a history lesson through photographic displays, artifacts, historical maps of the area and a 30-minute documentary developed by the lodge’s Worshipful Deputy Master, Ryan Campbell. The Osgoode Township High School teacher’s video depicted the history of the lodge, its members, and their contribution to the local community. Campbell has been researching the lodge’s history for the past two years in an effort to mark the lodge’s milestone birthday. He said the docu-

and even the first vice-president and a director of the Ontario Plowmen’s Association (OPA), Charles Leduc. And none of the local elected politicians, ranging from federal MP Pierre Poilievre to provincial MPP’s Jack MacLaren and Lisa MacLeod to city of Ottawa mayor Jim Watson to a host of incumbent councillors even finished in the top three. First runner-up was Fred Sherwin, a veteran journalist who is a candidate in the Orleans ward, while the second runner-up was George Darouze, a candidate in the Osgoode ward. Besides OPA first vice-president Charles Leduc and the Queen of the Furrow Taylor Brophy of Richmond, the other non-political contestant in this VIP plowing competition was Rev. Arlyce Schiebout, the minister of the Munster and Ashton United Churches. See ANNUAL, page 27 JOHN CURRY/METROLAND

ADVERTORIAL
Continued from page 26
It was quite a lineup of participants for this year’s VIP plowing event. Besides mayor Jim Watson, incumbent councillors on hand to try their luck included councillors Scott Moffatt, Steve Blais and Doug Thompson. Nepean-Carleton MP the Hon. Pierre Poilievre carried the federal banner in the competition while NepeanCarleton MPP Lisa MacLeod and Carleton-Mississippi Mills MPP Jack MacLaren were both on hand. MacLaren had won the VIP plowing competition last year but not this year. However, he consoled himself with the fact that he had won the VIP competition at the Lanark County plowing match a few days earlier. Besides OPA first vicepresident Charles Leduc, Rev. Arlyce Schiebout and winner Taylor Brophy, the Queen of the Furrow, other participants

I would like welcome returning students and new students of the OCDSB back to school, and I hope that your first weeks of school are filled with excitement as well as finding new friends and catching up with old ones after a busy summer. Further, at the start of another school year, I also wanted to take a moment to explain to OCDSB parents across the city the role of a school board trustees and how trustees can help you if you encounter problems at your school throughout the school year, from school transportation and bullying issues to accessing information about programs, such as our special education services. As recognized in the Education Act and underscored in a provincial review of school board governance in 2009, school board trustees have two roles: “As a member of the board, an individual trustee is expected to act within the board’s by-laws and be loyal to the board’s decisions. However, as elected persons, trustees are also expected to advocate for the interests of their constituencies.” In this regard, as members of the board, trustees collectively carry out the following key roles (developed by Ontario’s school board associations): Establishing vision and climate. As members of the school board, trustees help establish the board’s vision and climate. Through their consultative work with their community they contribute to the shaping of a vision for the board that is reflective of the input of parents, students and supporters of the board. They then work to develop a strategic plan and policies that build a climate that supports student success and emphasizes teamwork and shared accountability among board and school staff. Planning, goal setting, and appraisal. Strategic planning is a key leadership responsibility of members of the school board. The Education Act requires boards to have a multi-year plan that is directed at achieving the boards’ goals in areas that include student
achievement and well-being, capital planning, and parent engagement. This plan describes what the board hopes to achieve, what its priorities are and how it plans to meet its objectives. It is developed through a process that involves the board, the director of education, board staff, employee organizations, students and the community. It will have goals for each of the years of the plan, the board will review it annually with the director of education and it will be accessible to the public, usually through the board’s website. Policy making. A key responsibility of any school board is to develop and adopt policies that are based on the board’s vision and that provide a framework for implementation of the vision. The Education Act requires boards to develop and maintain policies and organizational structures that promote the board’s goals and encourage pupils to pursue their educational goals. It is the responsibility of board members to monitor and evaluate how efficiently the board’s policies are implemented and how effective they are in achieving the board’s goals. Policies will cover such matters as instructional material, student support services, administration of schools, staffing, and facilities and equipment. Recruiting and reviewing performance of the chief executive. In many cases, trustees must recruit and hire a new director of education during their term of office. As a member of the board, a trustee participates in the evaluation of the performance of the director of education, who is ultimately responsible for carrying out the board-approved policies. Student achievement and wellbeing. The board is entrusted with the task of adopting policies that set clear expectations and standards for student achievement and that promote student well-being in accordance with provincial legislation and regulations. All decisions about programs of instruction, student services, learning materials and matters regarding student safety should be based on the board’s policies aimed at promoting student achievement. School board trustees are ambassadors for student achievement and wellbeing in their local communities. Allocating resources. The most visible and significant policy that the board will approve is the annual budget. Board members participate in the budget process, ensuring that funding is aligned with board priorities and that all legislated obligations are taken into consideration. A board is legally required to ensure effective stewardship of the board’s resources and to file a balanced budget.
Staffing. The director of education is the sole employee of the board; recruitment and evaluation of staff is delegated through the director to the board’s administrative leadership team. However, the school board is responsible for establishing policy governing all employment procedures, collective agreements, and other terms of employment. School facilities. The board is responsible for all matters related to facilities, including: maintenance, acquisition and disposal of sites; building renewal plans; and site operation. All policies relating to facilities must first take into consideration requirements related to the achievement and well-being of students of the board. Student supports. While school boards are primarily engaged in the provision of education services, they do so with regard for the promotion of student wellbeing. The board sets policies that guide the actions of administration and school staff in their dealings with students and their families. In this regard, issues such as student safety, student discipline, food services, attendance, matters related to health, and student transportation are significant matters for the attention of school board members. Advocacy. Trustees act as education advocates at various levels. At the local level, they work on behalf of the community and must consider the unique needs of that community when deciding what position to take on an issue. Trustees encourage constituents to participate in the school system. This aspect of their work can involve familiarizing people with the procedures for bringing their views before the board, such as through public or written submissions. As advocates for excellence in education, trustees may also act on constituent complaints or requests and help to find a resolution by working with appropriate board staff, usually the director of education. The trustee’s role as an education advocate often extends beyond the boundaries of the district school board. In the broader public domain, trustees are education advocates throughout the province and work with the provincial government in the interest of publicly funded education. They often liaise with members of the provincial government, the school system, and with local organizations or individuals in the community. Additional resources about the role of a school board trustee and the education system in Ontario can be found by visiting www. ocdsb.ca, www.edu.gov.on.ca or www.ontarioschooltrustees. org.

Buying a backpack in five lessons Lifestyle - A childâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s backpack is a trusty companion; kids are rarely seen without them. However, a poorly adjusted backpack, or one that is too heavy, can cause back, shoulder, and neck pain. One teenager out of two suffers from back pain at least once a month, and what theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re wearing on their backs may very well be the cause. That is a good reason to learn these ďŹ ve lessons about backpacks. 1. Shop with your children. Having the child with you is the only
way to choose a backpack that will be the right size. The backpack should not be higher than the shoulders or wider than the back, and should reach down to just above the hips. 2. Choose the right material. A light synthetic canvas is better than a heavier cotton or leather. An empty bag should weigh no more than 500 g for a child and 1 kg for a teenager. 3. Choose a neutral colour. A neutral bag will better stand up
to changing fashions. Expensive designer brand bags could also be a poor choice; kids grow up fast! 4. Examine the shoulder straps. These should be at least 5 cm wide and be adjustable and padded. A waist strap and a chest strap allow for better weight distribution. 5. Educate your children. Teach kids to only bring home what is strictly necessary in order to do their homework. The weight of the ďŹ lled bag shouldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t exceed 10 percent of their body weight.
If your child is using drugs, the right attitude to take is that of a guide.

UNDERSTANDING
It is a mistake to cover up mistakes or misdemeanours your teenager has committed under the inďŹ&#x201A;uence of drugs. It is important to let him face the consequences of his actions. He must face his debts, justify his absences from school himself, and deal with the consequences of poor academic performance.

ACCOUNTABILITY
Read us online
Our stories. Our museums.
Approach the subject calmly with your teen when he or she is not under the inďŹ&#x201A;uence of drugs. Make him aware of your suspicions. Rather than criticize, express what you feel about the situation, whether itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s anxiety, incomprehension, or fear. Give him your support and encourage him to ďŹ nd his own solutions for stopping the drug use.

DISCUSSION
that taking drugs is a problem, do not try to force him outright to stop using them. Instead, have a discussion about the reasons that led him to take drugs in the ďŹ rst place. Help him to get the correct information about drugs, let him know the range of resources he has at his disposal to get help, and tell him that he can count on your support. There is no point in giving him orders or trying to protect him in spite of himself. The right attitude to adopt is that of a guide.

Lifestyle - One of your worst fears has materialized â&#x20AC;&#x201C; your teen is using drugs. But itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s useless to feel guilty or to panic. Ignoring the situation is not the right way to go either. It is far better to approach the problem with discussion, understanding, and accountability.

Volunteers stuff more than 1,500 backpacks for start of school year jennifer.mcintosh@metroland.com
News - Thanks to the donation of 420 more backpacks, the Caring and Sharing Exchange will be able to outfit all the families on their waiting list with the supplies they need for school. Volunteers gathered at the Accora Village Recreation centre on Aug. 25 packing 1,520 backpacks with the supplies Ottawa students will need for the start of school. The charity runs assistance programs for families in need, including a Sharing in Student Success program. The program provides children in need with grade-appropriate stuffed backpacks. The need is rising according to spokesperson Megan Oâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;Meara, who said last yearâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s demand reached 1,292 children. This year, the increase is nearly 20 per cent, with a total of 1,520 children on the list. There were 420 left on the waiting list before Giant Tiger stepped in and donated 420 backpacks. The Canadian retailer donated an additional 500 backpacks a month earlier. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Words cannot express the relief I felt when our friends at Giant Tiger offered to donate the additional bags for all the children on our waiting list,â&#x20AC;? Cindy Smith, executive director for the Caring and Sharing Exchange, said in a press release. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The backpack itself if the most expensive item given to each child, and although we still need help to fill all of these bags, our goal of helping all the children on the list is once again within reach.â&#x20AC;? Giant Tiger is a long time supporter of the charity and gives financial and in-kind donations to the Sharing in the Student Success Program, as well as the nearly 100year-old Christmas Exchange. Jennifer Smith, a first-time volunteer, said she was surprised at how streamlined operations were as she busily filled backpacks. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It seemed overwhelming to find out we had to stuff more than 1,000

his would be my second year at the Northcote School. I had passed out of Primer Book, much to my delight and my brother Emerson’s complete surprise.
He told me on more than one occasion that I would be in the lowest grade for at least three years I loved school, and I loved Miss Crosby, even though I held her in great awe. She never

played favourites, and often her patience was tried to the limit with both Cecil and Emerson in the same class. I could hardly wait to get to school on that first day back in September. We five children had been scrubbed within an inch of our lives, and we had on our next-to-Sunday-best clothes, those that we wore into Renfrew, or to the Saturday night house parties. Writing was still beyond me, but days before we were to go back to school, I had printed out all the rules I had learned the year before. I had sat at the kitchen table, and with the help of my

sister Audrey, I refreshed in my mind, all the dos and don’ts Miss Crosby insisted on. I had to remember to stand at my desk, feet firmly planted on the floor, to answer any question asked by the teacher. And there was no slumping over your workbook. No passing notes or whispering allowed, and you never, ever, left your desk without permission. When the inspector came to the door, without rapping usually, just brazenly walking in, you immediately got out of your desk, and stood at attention until told to sit down. You had to be prepared for desk-drawer inspection without
notice, so your books had better be in perfect order: the scribblers on the very bottom, and the reader and spelling book on top. You asked permission for anything you needed or wanted to know by raising your right hand. Never your left hand, which apparently meant something entirely different. That was a challenge for Cora who was naturally left-handed, but she soon got onto raising her right hand when Miss Crosby ignored her otherwise. And the second Miss Crosby appeared on the stoop outside the school and rang the big brass hand-bell, you lined up like soldiers. The smallest at the front of the line, and the biggest at the back. There were even rules for asking permission back then for something as basic as having to use the outhouse. If it was to be a fast trip, you raised one finger on your left hand. Two fingers on the left

hand meant you expected to out there for a bit longer. Of course, the entire Northcote School knew what you were asking permission for. And it was on that first day of school that each of us was assigned chores. These could include sweeping the floor, emptying the waste paper basket at the end of the day, wiping off the blackboards, changing the drinking and washing-up water, and making sure the pencil sharpener had been emptied every night. By the time the first week of school had passed, all the rules would have been established, and the school would be running like a well-oiled wheel. It would be many years later that I would finally realize what Miss Crosby meant when she said in her opening remarks, as she stood at the big oak desk at the front of the room at the start of every school year. “Remember going to school is not a right, it is a privilege.”

Humane Society preps for 26th-annual walk jennifer.mcintosh@metroland.com
News - The Ottawa Humane Society is gearing up for their annual Wiggle Waggle Walkathon on Sept. 7. This is the charity’s 26th annual walk and one of the only ones in the country to include a three-kilometre companion run, where participants are able to bring their four-legged friends along. Natalie Pona, the humane society’s spokesperson, said the goals for the annual fundraiser – the society’s biggest
– are $40,000 for the run and $160,000 for the walk. So far, pledges are at about 25 per cent of the goal. “We really start to see the numbers go up in the last week leading up to the event,” Pona said on Aug. 28. Last year – the companion run’s inaugural year – there were 2,500 participants. The companion run is a three-kilometre route from Juliana Park and Queen Elizabeth Drive.

SCRUFFY (A168872)
Scruffy (A168872) is looking for her purrfect match - could it be you? This sweet tortie is looking for a quiet space where she can spend her days lounging about. She was declawed by her previous owner and would love to go to an adult-only forever home. Scruffy is an independent gal but also gets along great with feline friends. She loves having her head scratched and being pampered with regular brushing. For more information on Jake and all our adoptable animals, stop by the OHS at 245 West Hunt Club Rd. Check out our website at ottawahumane.ca to see photos and descriptions of the animals available for adoption.

Helping the animals is a year-round activity for them and the results show in their individual and team totals and in the happy outcomes for the animals.

The Wiggle Waggle Walkathon and Run for the Animals is the biggest and most popular event of the year for the Ottawa Humane Society. Just seeing all the hundreds of dogs together, all shapes, sizes and breeds, is a sight to behold. Many come just to see the spectacle.
