While questions about the environment, healthcare and military naturally segued into warnings about the danger of muzzling scientists and promises to bolster national research, some audience members cut straight to the point, addressing candidates directly about what they felt was the current government’s poor treatment of scientists.

The debate hosted, by the Manotick Village Community Association, mostly served as a venue for residents in the Carleton riding to air their grievances with the parties vying for leadership, but especially with the current government.

Little debating was done between candidates, with most of the heat and anger coming from audience members, who filled almost every seat in the room and lined the walls of the venue.

The third of five debates planned for the new riding,

which includes the Riverside South and Findlay Creek areas of south Ottawa, was scheduled to run for two hours, but easily exceeded that time.

Its format had candidates Kc Larocque of the NDP, Deborah Coyne of the Green party, Chris Rodgers of the Liberals and long-time Nepean-Carleton Conservative MP Pierre Poilievre offer prepared answers to questions submitted in advance by organizers, followed by an audience question period that lasted for more than an hour.

One young audience member put Poilievre on the defensive when he asked the conservative MP how his government planned to address the issue of alleged suppressed scientists under the Harper government.

Poilievre took the opportunity to praise his party for investing $13-billion annually in science and technology funding, and said that his government’s tax cuts for entrepreneurs in Ottawa are allowing them to rebuild the

technology sector “with great success.”

“Among G7 countries, Canada has the highest level of support for scientific research in per capita monetary terms,” he said to an audience in which many were shaking their heads in disagreement.

“Furthermore we have a disproportionately large number of cited research publications.”

His response was answered with several cries of “Popycock!” followed by a ripple of discussion through the crowd.

Poilievre also came under fire when an audience member reminded the room of promises he said Poilievre made during candidate forums in 2004 and 2006 to “impose stringent, enforceable, mandatory regulations” on 14 industrial sectors that were the highest emitters of greenhouse gases.

Poilievre was asked how many had been addressed as of this year.

Participants agree on value of fundamentals for economic growth Continued from page 2

When Poilievre seemed to deflect the question by commending the Conservative government for being the first to reduce greenhouse gases in Canada, while also not raising taxes, the crowd erupted in angry shouts of “answer the question” and “you promised” at which point Poilievre sat down.

“Only the most partisan Conservative would believe that we have moved forward on the environment file,” said Rodgers, the Liberal candidate.

Larocque said the NDP believes it’s not necessary to choose between a clean

environment and a strong economy.

“All I can say on behalf of the Green Party,” Coyne said.

“Is that you do want someone like me in Parliament.

You want more people like Elizabeth May holding the next government, whatever government it is, accountable.”

The format for the first hour of the debate had candidates give prepared answers to questions posed by a moderator that addressed issues affecting the riding’s aging population, environmental issues in the riding and local economic development.

On the issue of an aging population, Coyne described

Canada’s healthcare system as a patchwork quilt.

She said it was important for the federal government to be more involved in healthcare, and for all levels of government to collaborate more going forward.

Poilievre took the opportunity to defend the current government’s plan to raise the retirement age to 67 from 65, saying that with life expectancy in Canada rising every year, the age of retirement should be flexible to sustain old age pensions in the long-term.

Rodgers pledged to protect pension splitting for seniors, and secure access for seniors to affordable housing, while

Larocque repeated the NDP’s pledge to restore the retirement age back to 65.

The NDP candidate also emphasized the need to add more frontline doctors and nurses and promote dementia and Alzheimer’s research.

When asked how they would address environmental issues in the riding, Larocque said that the NDP were the only party taking climate change seriously.

“We will work to overhaul the review process for development projects,” she said.

“Canadians deserve to have confidence that if a project causes more harm than good, it won’t go forward.”

Coyne endorsed a carbon

price, and emphasized the need to achieve carbon neutrality by mid-century, and Poilievre praised the federal government’s creation of two new national parks, an urban park and a marine conservation area.

Rodgers said the first thing a Liberal government would do would be to “stop treating environmentalists like criminals, and to start treating them as concerned citizens,” immediately eliciting whistles and applause from across the room.

Regarding the local economy, all four candidates agreed on the importance of focusing on the fundamentals of economic development,

with Poilievre promising to continue promoting training, trade and tax cuts for businesses.

Rodgers pledged to grow the middle class by cutting taxes on income between $45,000 and $85,000.

Larocque promised to tackle the infrastructure deficit in the riding by investing, with the NDP, in public transit. Coyne also stressed that investing in the fundamentals of economic development, such as infrastructure, was a key to growing the local economy.

The candidates will gather for a final debate on Oct. 14 at Fred Barrett Arena in Findlay Creek.

Osgoode Youth Association serving up supper Staff

The Osgoode Youth Association is serving up supper to 10 teens each Friday in October, ending on Oct. 23.

With help from the city’s rural community building grant, the youth association launched its Healthy Harvest Suppers series with a spread of homemade pasta, organic tomato sauce and salad at the centre on Sept.

25.

Other meals planned for the series include a pork roast with Texas style potato salad and sliced local tomatoes, Thanksgiving dinner with all the trimmings, baked buffalo chicken nuggets with homemade bleu cheese dressing and veggies, and roast beef with salad and artisan bread.

Dinner runs from 6 to 10 p.m. each Friday at the Osgoode Youth Associ-

ation’s centre. The series is open to anyone in grades 7 to 12 at a cost of $2 per dinner, but only 10 spots are available each week, so advance registration is the key to getting in on a meal.

Spots are filled on a first-comefirst-served basis.

Register by emailing carlet@oya.ca or signing up in person at O-YA, located at 5479 Osgoode Main St.

Drama ensues over drawing that vanishes into ‘thin air’

E

merson was raging mad. He was thumping around the kitchen, arms waving, and his face was the colour of his flaming red hair.

“It was right there, I tell ya,” he said, stabbing his finger on top of a pile of notepaper. “I accidentally folded down a corner of the sheet, and I put it into this stack of papers to smooth it out, and I haven’t touched it since. Someone has deliberately taken it out of there, and it sure wasn’t me.”

It had darkened enough that night in late September, that Mother had lit the coal oil lamps and one sat at either end of the old pine table. With the exception of Father, who as usual was sitting in front of the Findlay Oval in his rocking chair with his feet up on the oven door, we five children were occupied with our favourite pastimes. Mother was working on her scrap books, Everett was making a new sling shot, Earl was carving some animal from a piece of smooth wood he had found, and Audrey was attempting to teach me once again how

MARY COOK Memories to make French knots on the end of a flour bag tea towel.

Emerson had been working on yet another one of his crazy drawings of a building with glass walls and an elevator going up the outside.

He had drawn and erased the one sheet, and he claimed he had accidentally turned down the top right corner.

To straighten it out he had tucked into the big pile of sheets already full of his crazy ideas of how his buildings were going to look when he became famous.

And now the sheet was gone. Into thin air.

And he knew for a fact that one of us sitting around the table had taken it out of the pile for spite!

“And it was my best drawing yet,” he roared. “I even had glass doors on the

building. This was going to be a building like no one has ever seen before, and someone in this very room has taken it right out of this pile of papers.”

And he closed his fist and banged it down on the pile of sheets before him.

Nobody paid him any heed. Emerson was always ranting about something, and it often had to do with his crazy drawings put to the paper tablets Mother bought for him on the one-cent sale at the Rexall Drug Store in Renfrew.

“Hours of work I put into that drawing,” he said. It was amazing to me how no one paid him any heed. Father never took his eyes off the Ottawa Farm Journal, Mother continued to cut pieces out of the Philadelphia Enquirer

and paste them into her scrap book, and Everett and Earl kept right on doing what they were doing.

Finally, Mother suggested he start at the top of the pile of papers and work his way to the bottom, just in case that particular sheet somehow got tucked into the stack. Emerson said he had done that and the drawing was gone.

“Gone, I tell you! Gone! And when I find out who took it out of this pile (and he pounded the stack again for good measure) he’ll pay dearly.”

The evening was wearing on, and my fingers were stiff from holding the needle and the embroidery cotton trying desperately to master the French knot, which as far as I was concerned was a lost cause. I knew I would never be as clever as my sister Audrey, and trying to teach me the fine art of embroidery was a complete waste of her time.

I forced a yawn and asked my sister if we could put the embroidery away, and maybe take a look through the brand new Eaton’s catalogue, which had just come.

It was sitting on the top of the ice box, and this time of year I spent many a happy hour going through the thick catalogue working my way

Audrey brought it to the table, put it in front of me, and told me to start where ever I wanted. I decided

“That was way to easy!”

LETTER

Keep our community clean To the editor,

Having just returned from a two week holiday in Europe, which included six days auto touring with friends in beautiful Germany, I biked from Osgoode

to flip to the Christmas section...toys...candies... girl’s pretty clothes. Well!

What I found, smack in the middle of the catalogue was Emerson’s missing drawing!

There it was, as large as life.

Emerson saw it at the same time. He slapped his forehead, his face turned even redder if that was possible. And in a voice barely heard, admitted to putting it in the middle of Eaton’s catalogue to straighten out the page that had a corner fold.

Gentle Earl demanded an apology, Everett put a wad of paper wet with spit in his new sling shot and hit Emerson dead on, Father said a swear word in German, Audrey rolled her eyes, and Mother closed her scrap book, let out a long sigh, and ordered us all to bed.

Another exciting night at Northcote had come to an end.

village to the Swan restaurant to meet a friend.

I couldn’t believe my eyes. In that short stretch along Nixon Drive I saw so much roadside trash that had the situation been reversed and my German friends been visiting here, I would have been humiliated having them see the main road into Osgoode looking like such a trash heap.

It took me four hours on my garden tractor

and yard trailer and six green garbage bags to pick up all the trash from Osgoode Main to the Snake Island Road.

Bottom line: please discard your trash at home, not on the road.

Oh, one other thing – a little reminder that we should all drive defensively. Between the fire station and Main Street I picked up 31 beer cans.

Saying goodbye to a friend The city lost an icon on Oct. 1.

Max Keeping was a reporter, a news anchor and he came into thousands of homes every weeknight across Ottawa and eastern Ontario on CJOH, later CTV Ottawa.

But he was more than that.

He could have lived a 9-to-5 life and headed home after the cameras shut down at the end of each newscast. But he was more than willing to do much more.

Keeping knew he was considered a friend to his viewers.

He could have capitalized on that by appearing in commercial advertisements but he made the choice to put full his effort into helping those less fortunate. Keeping backed charities across the region – notably CHEO – encouraging viewers to help too, all in that familiar, calm tone of voice.

Who could fail to respond when a friend asked for help?

So Keeping was iconic. But he was more because he was not just a celebrity seeking more fame and more notoriety. He saw that kind of opportunity

existed but made a conscious decision to take a pass because kids, seniors and so many others might benefit from his connection with TV viewers.

An example that touched our reporting staff: one cold winter’s night in 2003, Keeping drove straight from his newscast to the old bingo hall on Merivale Road, arriving minutes after 7 p.m. simply because he’d been asked to help out. He arrived to call out the final bingo numbers as one lucky player won a new car.

It was all for charity of course.

And the connection this city felt with Keeping was on display for all. As he walked in the room and gave his familiar wave, he received a standing ovation from the packed house.

He was good for the city and the city knew it. He lived life to the max.

The greatest tribute anyone can pay to Keeping’s lifelong support of charities is to make sure the efforts continue. If you were inspired by Keeping and his mantra: do something to make a difference in another’s life.

Max, you will be missed.

Toronto will just have to do

T

his is hard. But we might as well own up to it. A number of us in Ottawa — probably quite a large number — are cheering for a Toronto sports team.

No, of course it’s not the Argonauts. And it’s certainly not the Maple Leafs, except for a few who were cursed from birth with that affliction.

No, it’s the Blue Jays, who are in the playoffs for the first time in 22 years, capturing the imagination of long-suffering local baseball fans.

All the indicators are present: In a recent months I’ve been at Ottawa dinner parties where people were checking the score between courses.

It brings back the days when Montreal Expos fans dominated the Valley landscape, hanging on every broadcast word from Duke and Dave. That ended after the 2004 season when the team left Montreal, and perhaps some of us have been waiting that long to find something to replace it.

Not that they could ever replace the Expos, but the Blue Jays, as the only Canadian team left, have a certain appeal, which is helped

considerably by the fact that they’re winning.

Yes, it’s a bit icky, cheering for Toronto — when was the last time anyone in Toronto cheered for us?

— but it seems to have happened.

And even if it’s a bit embarrassing for National League purists to cheer for an American League team where the pitcher doesn’t hit, still it beats utter indifference.

Imaging living your life cheering for nothing.

Soon it will be over. How soon is the big question. Could be days, could be weeks. And then we can revert to our traditional behaviour pattern of cheering for Ottawa teams, living and dying with the Senators, and let’s not forget the new pattern of living and dying with the RedBlacks.

Meanwhile, the baseball is exciting, the offence and the defence, the Jays are an interesting team to watch and we can rationalize cheering for disTriBuTion inQuiries Richard Burns 613-221-6243 adMinisTraTion: Donna Therien 613-221-6233 display adverTising: Gisele Godin - Kanata - 221-6214 Dave Pennett - Ottawa West - 221-6209 Orleans - 221-6154 Cindy Gilbert - Ottawa South - 221-6211 Carly McGhie - Ottawa East - 221-6154 Geoff Hamilton - Home Builders Accounts Specialist - 221-6215 Valerie Rochon - Barrhaven - 221-6227 Jill Martin - Nepean - 221-6221 Mike Stoodley - Stittsville - 221-6231 Janine Kivell - Ottawa West - 221-6217 Rico Corsi - Automotive Consultant - 221-6224 Classified adverTising sales:

a Toronto team by thinking of it as cheering for a Canadian team. That will be easier once the American nationalism ramps up during the playoffs.

And it could be an added incentive that the Blue Jays’ catcher, Russell Martin, spent part of his boyhood in Chelsea. Much more should be made of this.

The thing is, people need to have someone to cheer for, particularly in these gloomy times, and if the nearest suitable object happens to be a team from Toronto, well, you take what you can get. No one gets hurt, after all.

There is certainly precedent for this. In fact, it is all around us in the federal election. Few people are ever completely satisfied with the candidate or party they vote for. But they cheer for someone anyway.

And vote. If they are not enthusiastic about their team winning, they are at least keen on seeing the other

There is at least a possibility, playoff schedules being what they are, that the Blue Jays may outlast at least two political parties. And if they don’t, well we had fun, maybe even more fun than the debate on the Trans-Pacific Partnership.

NOTICE OF PASSING OF A ZONING BY-LAW BY THE CITY OF OTTAWA TAKE NOTICE that the Council of the City of Ottawa passed By-law Number 2015-293 on September 23, 2015, under Section 34 of The PLANNING ACT. Erin McCracken/Metroland

Rideau-Goulbourn Coun. Scott Moffatt, left, and Gloucester-South Nepean Coun. Michael Qaqish respond to questions about the city’s budget at the Rideau Valley Conservation Authority in Manotick on Sept. 30. It was one of eight public consultation meetings that are taking place around the city to seek feedback from the public on how the city should spend taxpayer dollars.

Roads, pathways top residents’ wishlists Erin McCracken

erin.mccracken@metroland.com

From cutting library spending and vehicle lifecycle renewal costs to doling out more cash for roads and pathways, rural south Ottawa residents came armed with plenty of suggestions on how the city should spend and save taxpayer dollars next year.

The city has $3.1 billion to work with in 2016, some of it discretionary, and 18 residents living in Manotick, Greely and across the river in Stonebridge aired their concerns and suggestions during a public budget consultation meeting at the Rideau Valley Conservation Authority in Manotick.

Library spending, arbitration and compensation costs, public works, roads, pathways, development charges and the gas tax were among the hot topics raised.

With three months still left in the year, the city is forecasting a $41-million deficit.

“When we received a status report that said that we were facing a $41-million forecasted deficit, we implemented a hiring freeze at that moment,” said Rideau-Goulbourn Coun. Scott Moffatt.

“So from that point to the end of the year there’s no new hires at the city.”

Staffing numbers have also been scaled back through attrition by 50 to 60 positions every year within the past three budgets.

“We’re just changing how we do certain things,” said Moffat, who was joined at the meet-

ing by Gloucester-South Nepean Coun. Michael Qaqish and Osgoode Coun. George Darouze, as well as deputy city treasurer Isabelle Jasmin.

Snow removal is the largest expense contributing to the city’s deficit.

The city employs full-time winter maintenance staff to clear roads, which means they get paid whether it’s snowing or not, Moffatt said, adding that winter maintenance is the city’s “biggest burden.”

He pointed to the example of the city spending $11 million, including $8 million on snow removal, in winter maintenance costs between Christmas and New Year’s, one year alone.

“So it’s a huge pressure,” he said, noting the city is currently reviewing the winter maintenance program.

“So I think the question is is that something we can do by contract?”

Klaus Beltzner, president of the Manotick Village Community Association, wanted to know how the city can save on vehicle lifecycle renewal costs.

The purchase of new city vehicles is expected to cost the city a projected $29 million next year.

“Are we getting the best bang for our buck when it comes to these vehicles?” Moffatt said.

The councillors also heard the reconstruction of rural arterial roads, such as Mitch Owens Road which has again fallen into disrepair, needs to be a priority.

Notion of special arterial road levy ‘still a tough sell’: councillor Continued from page 9

“Will there be something in the budget for the rural areas for the rural arterial roads, to rebuild them to current standards?” Beltzner asked.

Moffat said some roads are micro-resurfaced, which buys the city seven to 10 years, whereas other roads are reconstructed for millions of dollars.

“That is a priority, there’s no question. We’re increasing our contribution to capital that’s specifically about roads,” Moffat said, adding that River Road will receive attention in the next three to five years.

Bill Tupper, former Rideau township mayor, lives on a secondary road in Manotick, which is well-maintained, but he complained the arterial roads are deteriorating faster than the city can keep up with.

Snake Island Road is an embarrassment, he said.

“If you run a vehicle on that road very long you’re going to be replacing the suspension left, right and centre,” he said.

The answer may be in a special mill-rate program to help pay for and expedite repairs to arterial roads.

“For me, I can’t go anywhere without being on an arterial road,” Tupper said.

Several roads, including Roger Stevens and Rideau Valley Drive North and South, are priorities in the next couple of years, said Moffatt.

But the idea of imposing a special level has already been considered and nixed

by a previous council.

“It is challenging, right, because you’d have to go to the residents and say we’re going to charge you a fiveper-cent tax increase, even though we’re going to spend it here, here and here,” he said. “It’s still a tough sell.”

One Manotick couple at the meeting, who declined to provide their names, said they’d be willing to pay extra if it meant the arterial roads “were looked after properly.”

Likewise, Kristine Norenius of Greely expressed her hope that pathways will be a budget priority.

Erin McCracken/Metroland

Greely resident Mark van der Pas provides suggestions on how the city should prioritize its spending during a public budget consultation meeting at the Rideau Valley Conservation Authority in Manotick on Sept. 30.

“In the rural areas it’s a nightmare to take the car to work to go into the city, but it’s also terrifying to even try to bicycle from Greely into the city, or within Greely or from Greely to Manotick or

Metcalfe or Osgoode,” she said.

Multi-use pathways in the Manotick area will be undergoing some work, Darouze said, but added that it’s important to be mindful of the

sheer size of Ottawa and the limited $3.1 billion the city has to work with.

“Osgoode Ward has 650 kilometres of trail,” he said.

“I would love that the city would have all the money

Veteran news anchor and champion for children, Max Keeping, who anchored the annual CHEO Telethon for more than 25 years, passed away Oct. 1 at the age of 73 after a long battle with cancer. most ardent supporter,” Alex Munter, CHEO president and chief executive, said in a statement.

Keeping anchored the annual CHEO Telethon, the regional hospital’s largest fundraiser, for more than 25 years.

He was first diagnosed with prostate cancer in 2003.

It returned in 2010, the same year as his final CTV Ottawa News broadcast, according to the media outlet.

The longtime community leader, who hailed from Newfoundland, was first named to the CJOH news anchor desk in 1972.

“He was in your living room every night,” said Fraser.

Munter said the veteran newsman was a “constant presence during generations of tremendous change.”

“To put Max’s longevity into perspective, by the time I entered Grade 1 in 1974, Max was already a fixture on Ottawa’s airwaves,” said Munter, who recalled going to work for Keeping for a couple of years when Munter was a CTV Ottawa commentator.

Keeping remained a strong advocate for children, even through his own cancer di-

agnosis and treatment, said Munter.

“This past year was very hard as Max lost his legendary ‘gift of the gab’ – but he never lost his spirit, curiosity or love of community. When I last saw him, the TV was tuned to federal election coverage and newspapers were spread across his bed, the inveterate newsman,” he said.

“As I gave him the latest updates from CHEO, he smiled and laughed – always happy at the success of ‘his’ hospital.”

Keeping co-founded Child and Youth Friendly Ottawa, and established the Max Keeping Foundation, which helped more than 6,000 families over 21 years.

The charity was dissolved earlier this year amid his deteriorating health, and the remaining $150,000 went to the creation of the Max Keeping Fund For Kids, an endowment fund at CHEO that helps families with expenses related to medical care, such as travel and accommodation.

“There is no doubt that Max’s legacy will be felt by kids for generations to come,” said Munter. “Indeed, Max will always be a hero to CHEO.”

Max Keeping, considered by many as a community leader and champion for children, has died at the age of 73.

Mayor Jim Watson’s voice broke as he struggled to contain his emotions when he announced Keeping’s passing in front of a packed council chamber during the city’s Syrian refugee resettlement forum at city hall on Oct. 1.

A minute of silence was held in Keeping’s memory.

“It’s a very, very sad day for the whole city. Max was larger than life,” said Watson, who first met Keeping in 1982 when Watson was a student leader at Carleton University.

“He was such a community builder, such a great friend to so many different causes and individuals. He was always a champion for the underdog and always so positive, even during his many bouts with cancer.”

When Watson last saw Keeping about a month ago at a fundraising event, Watson said “he was still living life to the max, as he used to say.”

He epitomized community and advocated for children and youth, including children in care, said Ottawa South MPP John Fraser, who knew Keeping well for the past 16 years.

“He work very hard on scholarships for wards of the Crown so he always brought to us, not (things) for himself, but for kids, whether it was through CHEO, wards of the Crown or children’s mental health,” he said.

“He was able to help us give expression to the desire to do the right thing for our kids. He brought people together.”

Staff, volunteers and patients and their families at CHEO, where a wing was named in Keeping’s honour in 2003, were also in mourning.

“Today, Ottawa has lost one of its proudest ambassadors. Kids in our community have lost one of their biggest champions. CHEO has lost its

Pierre Trudeau musical premiers at Centrepointe Megan DeLaire

Just Watch Me tells story of Trudeaumania in two acts and 14 songs mdelaire@metroland.com

Gatineau playwright Gord Carruth came out of retirement in 2014 to write a musical he surprised himself by not writing earlier in his career.

Just Watch Me – based on the life and achievements of former prime minister Pierre Elliott Trudeau –premiered at Centrepointe Studio Theatre on Oct. 6 and will run until Oct. 10.

The production, notable enough not only to draw Carruth out of retirement but also to merit the creation of its very own production company, features 26 performers and 14 original songs composed by Carruth. His soundtrack com-

bines rock ballads, big production numbers and love duets to convey the highs, lows and tense points of Trudeau’s life and role as leader of Canada from 1968 to 1979 and 1980 to 1984.

“I just felt that he’s the stuff of drama. His life was magnificent,” Carruth said. “He was flamboyant, he was controversial, he was loved, he was hated. He had a very magnetic personality and there was that whole thing of Trudeaumania in the 1960s.”

Carruth, 82, worked in theatre production for more than 40 years before retiring from his production company GOYA in 2011. However, in late 2014, the playwright – who has written political plays before – decided he had unfinished business in that area.

“I just realized last November that nobody had ever done a musical based on Pierre Trudeau,” he said. “I saw this letter that I got from him a long time ago and I thought ‘Wow, why hasn’t anybody written a

musical about him?’ And then I said ‘Well why haven’t I done it yet?’ So I decided to do it.”

The realization was sparked when Carruth rediscovered a letter in his studio written by Trudeau in 1971 thanking him for his work on a production.

Earlier that year, Carruth was commissioned by the mayor of Hamilton, Ont. to produce a show for Trudeau in the city during a visit by the prime minister there.

Carruth found the letter in November, 2014. He began writing Just Watch Me that month and had completed it by the end of December. He founded Maple Leaf Productions to replace the now defunct GOYA in order to produce the musical.

The play takes its name from a line spoken by Trudeau in 1970 when a CBC reporter asked him how far he would go to suspend civil liberties in order to maintain order during the FLQ crisis.

In addition to actors depicting real historical figures, Car-

ruth has created four fictional characters who echo both the pro- and anti-Trudeau sentiments of Canadians during Trudeau’s term as prime minister.

“I’ve created four characters that are very important,” he said. “There are two who are very anti-Trudeau and two that are pro-Trudeau and they kind of run through the whole musical as the pulse of Canada.”

Tickets for Just Watch Me are available online and through Centrepointe Theatre’s box office for $40.

lot of renovations I want to do to get it up to par with the rest of the country,” he said.

He does not ask the clubs for money, as he knows curling budgets can be tight, but hopes the trips will raise awareness that will attract donations and sponsors.

Swan, who is a service engineer, stopped in the Ottawa Curling Club on Sept.

29 before continuing on to a number of other clubs in the area.

He anticipates that he will only be home for five days around Christmas before April 2016.

The rest of the time he will spend working in Alberta and traveling across the country curling.

“There are over 1,100 curling clubs in Canada and I’m going to keep going until I get to everyone of them,” he said.

Swan has been paying all expenses out of his own pocket, but is currently looking for sponsors.

He was hoping he would sweep well on his trip through Ottawa.

Rob Swan came through the national capital region the week of Sept. 29 to play at a number of curling clubs across the city.

The trip was part of his second year trying to visit as many curling establishments in Canada in an attempt to raise money for his hometown club in Harvey Station, NB. “We need to start some renovations so this is my way of trying to raise some money throughout the year,” he said.

Last season, he curled 103 games in 103 different clubs and is hoping to make it to 150 clubs this year.

Swan started a charity called Curling Across the Na-

tion a year ago in the hope of raising more than $115,000 for a number of renovations needed at the Harvey Curling Club. So far, he has raised around $10,000.

Harvey Station is a bedroom community 35 kilometres southwest of Fredericton and has a population of less than 400.

Its curling club, which was founded in 1961, has around 70 members.

“The good, yet bad thing about Harvey is we have no industry.

“We’ve got no business to tap into for financial support,” he said.

“We’re kind stuck out there on our own because of the lack of municipal and provincial support.”

The club’s rink floors are in dire need of repair as they have warped fibre on them.

Swan said that he wants to replace them with concrete and that the building also needs new insulation.

“We’ve never missed a season, but now that I’m out on the road and I’ve seen so many other clubs, there are a

Alex Robinson/Metroland

Megan DeLaire joined the Manotick News on Sept. 21after writing for Metroland’s Nepean-Barrhaven News.

Megan DeLaire

Megandelaire@metroland.com

I’m joining your community as an observer and – factual – storyteller after spending the last six months forging connections with your friends and neighbours in Nepean, and I couldn’t be more thrilled.

Although it will take some time to introduce myself to those of you in Manotick, Osgoode, Greely, North Gower – pronounced Gore, I know – Metcalfe, Kars, Vernon, Edwards and Kenmore who have your own stories to tell, I know it will be a rewarding experience for me to cover what’s happening in your communities. I hope it is for you too.

I graduated from the five-year multimedia journalism program offered jointly by the University of Ottawa and Algonquin College in 2014 and joined Metroland to write for the Nepean-Barrhaven News in March.

I’ve always been a tenacious and eager student, and it’s been a plea-

sure learning about the organization I work for and the communities our publications reach.

Having extended my time with Metroland indefinitely as your weekly reporter with the Manotick News, I want to hit the ground running and am keen on learning what matters to you, so that I can do my part to keep us all informed about what is happening in Ottawa’s southern communities.

Until moving to Ottawa in 2009, I lived where I was raised: in the modest but growing municipality of Peterborough, Ont. As such, I feel a comfortable kinship with places where rural and urban lifestyles meet.

When I’m not writing about the affairs of Ottawa, I enjoy gardening, reading, hiking, cooking and crafting. I’m not very skilled at painting or drawing, but I take a lot of satisfaction from creating things.

I hope to craft many interesting and informative accounts of the news that matters to you.

School board signs deal with high school teachers Staff

The school year will continue according to plan for Ottawa high school students now that a tentative contract agreement has been forged between the local public school board and its teachers’ union.

On Sept. 21, the Ottawa-Carleton District School Board announced it had reached a tentative agreement with the Ontario Secondary School Teachers’ Federation (OSSTF) District 25, shortly after the main agreement between the province, OSSTF and school boards association was ratified.

The initial agreement in late August put an end to the labour action that commenced in late spring of this year and

left parents worried about what the coming school year might bring.

“This was a new bargaining process and I am very happy that we have been able to work together with OSSTF to achieve this tentative, local agreement,” stated OCDSB Director of Education Jennifer Adams. “Labour negotiations can be challenging, but we have the utmost respect for all of our employees and we value the work they do. That has guided us through the negotiations process.”

The two parties can boast that theirs is the first locally-negotiated settlement in the province, though the exact terms will remain secret until full ratification occurs. That was expected to happen by Sept. 30.

Celebrationof

The OSSTF was the first of the province’s teachers unions to strike a tentative deal with the province. Only one, the Elementary Teachers Federation of Ontario (ETFO), has not reached a deal, and is currently ramping up its work-to-rule campaign in advance of a possible round of rotating strikes in October.

OSSTF District 25 President Dan Maxwell referenced the long process in his remarks on the agreement.

“After several months of local bargaining under a completely new two-tiered process, we have finally reached a local deal,” he said. “This deal speaks to the steadfast support of our members who have been on a partial withdrawal of services since last May.”

It’s turkey time again

I

went out to the barn to take stock of the flock before writing this column. Actually a group of turkeys is called “a rafter.”

So I went out to check out the rafter of fat, fluffy Thanksgiving dinners on legs. They stand about three feet tall now, and greet me as I enter the barn.

Our birds are comfortable and happy right until their last moments, which are humane and calm. We moved our birds to the abandoned horse stable this year, so that we could hear them and their communal gobbling from the house.

The sheepdog is keeping a close eye on the comings and goings from the area and announcing the arrival of any intruders.

The turkeys are enjoying the added benefit of social activity in this new location. They can see out through the slats of the stall to the barnyard on one

DIANA FISHER The Accidental Farmwife side and the house yard on the other. When they hear the patio door slide open, they comment.

When a car drives up the lane, they comment. It makes life far more interesting for them, I’m sure. The soundtrack of the farm has been turkey song all summer.

In another week we will have fresh turkeys for pickup for Thanksgiving dinner, so if you need one, make sure you let us know. We only have a limited number.

The wild turkeys are plentiful this year. The designated female leads the kindergarten troupe in a zig-zag across the road and I

have to follow their silly parade as I’m trying to get to work. We watch from the back porch as the males compete in their flamboyant tango moves, fanning out their tails and attempting to impress the women.

Sept. 26 was opening day for the duck hunt and the Farmer launched his favourite time of year with his traditional hunting party gathering.

The trucks started arriving at 4 a.m. and unloaded their gear.

The canoes were already down at the creek so they piled everything on the trailer behind the ATV and rode down under the last of the full moon.

By 10 they were exhausted and hungry so they came back up to the farm for a feast of last season’s wild game.

Hunting season is the only time of year that the wine and beer are flowing before noon – because the hunters have already been up for eight hours and they are ready for a relaxing drink.

A dozen men fill the sun porch picnic table, their plates loaded with venison roast, goose bourguignon, wild turkey and lake trout. I quickly toss a salad and add it to the table with potatoes and carrots so it isn’t a total meat meal.

After brunch the hunters retire to the back deck for cigars and coffee and a nap in the sunshine. Some of them head home, while others prepare to head back out to the creek for the sunset hunt.

I imagine I would find it all a bit boring, sitting in the bush for hours, but to them it’s a form of meditation, I think. And they say they solve all the world’s problems out there in their deep woods conversations.

I think out of half-dozen hunters they got one duck. It

was turned over to the host/ cook and will be served as an appetizer at Sunday dinner with a side of goat cheese and red pepper jelly.

The Farmer and I sat up to watch the super blood moon total eclipse thingy last Sunday night. He set up our lawnchairs on the front porch and covered them with sheepskins to make them extra cozy.

I poured the whiskey nightcaps, turned off all the lights and we settled in under a blanket for the big moment. We got some visits from the barn cats who were out for their evening hunt.

White cats glow in the dark.

Finally the moon started to look like something was happening – the eclipsed part started to glow red and if you stared at it long enough it actually appeared to be spinning.

Then, it was over. For another 18 years, at least.

And the Farmer was snoring beside me. I’m lucky the cat woke me up or we might have been there until sunrise.

Ottawa children’s dreams take flight during Disney trip alex.robinson@metroland.com

When your heart is in your dreams, no request is too extreme.

Those words could not be truer for 104 children from the Ottawa area on Sept. 23 who were taken on a whirlwind trip to Disney World in Orlando, Fla. The Ottawa chapter of charity Dreams Take Flight organized the day, raising money throughout the year so that the children would not have to pay a cent for their trip. The charity asked organizations that work with socially, mentally, and physically challenged youth to select children to go.

Some of the children have difficult situations at home. Some have been diagnosed with life-changing illnesses and some are the siblings of children with serious conditions.

The kids assembled in a large hangar near Ottawa’s airport at 4 a.m. before doors swung open to reveal the plane that would take them to Florida.

After the excited little VIPs said goodbye to their parents and scampered onto the plane, they were told the engines would not start. Luckily, the flight crew had brought plenty of magic pixie dust to get the plane off the ground.

Most of the children had never even been on a plane before.

“I love the clouds,” said a grinning Hunter, a 12-year-old from Nepean, who gazed out the window as the plane headed towards Florida early that morning.

“I didn’t sleep last night because I thought I was going to miss it. It’s basically a dream come true.”

Once they landed, a short bus trip and ferry ride brought them to the gates of Disney World. A small army of volunteers ushered the children around the park in groups, darting around the magic kingdom.

A group of seven little boys beamed excitedly as they eagerly hugged Mickey Mouse.

The same group of boys later screamed as they whipped around on Space Mountain.

“It was fun, but I felt like I was going to puke my guts out,” Dominic, 8, excitedly said.

The kids got to go on as many rides as they could pack in and meet Disney characters from old and new movies.

The day was capped off with a visit to the gift store, where the children each got to choose a souvenir to take home.

Ahmad, 10, clutched his stuffed Pluto as the kids were rounded up and counted before getting back on

the buses at the end of the day.

Ahmad’s family fled Syria in 2010 and has been adjusting to Canadian life since. Back in the spring, Ahmad came home from school one day and eagerly told his mother about his classmates’ trips to Disney World during March break and said he would like to go one day. He got his wish.

When asked what his favourite part of the day was, the shy 10-yearold said meeting Mickey Mouse.

“Mickey was funny,” he said.

For Hunter, Space Mountain was the highlight.

“It’s all in the dark. You’re going and then you take a sharp turn and you go down and then you go up,” he said.

While they were split on what their favourite parts of the day were, the kids all agreed this was a day they would remember forever.

Volunteers with the Ottawa chapter of charity Dreams Take Flight took 104 children from Ottawa, Gatineau and Cornwall to Disney World in Orlando, Fla., on Sept. 23.

This week’s puzzle answers in next week’s issue

Here’s How It Works: Sudoku puzzles are formatted as a 9x9 grid, broken down into nine 3x3 boxes. To solve a sudoku, the numbers 1 through 9 must fill each row, column and box. Each number can appear only once in each row, column and box. You can figure out the order in which the numbers will appear by using the numeric clues already provided in the boxes. The more numbers you name, the easier it gets to solve the puzzle!
