Thompson barred from speaking after Darouze endorsement Emma Jackson emma.jackson@metroland.com

News - Osgoode ward’s final all-candidates meeting got off to an unusually dramatic start on Oct. 8, when retiring Coun. Doug Thompson was asked not to speak after publicly endorsing councillor candidate George Darouze. As he had at the previous debates in Metcalfe and Osgoode, Thompson arrived at the Greely Com-

munity Centre expecting to address the packed hall with a brief update about ward projects and to thank the community for their support. But a few minutes before the event was scheduled to start, Greely Community Association president Bruce Brayman asked Thompson not to speak, as requested by the 10 other candidates on the ballot. “The other candidates said they were uncomfort-

able about him speaking after endorsing George (Darouze) that day,” said Brayman, who organized the meeting. The community association did, however, present Thompson with a small gift to thank him for his 31 years of service. For his part, Thompson said he understood the situation, even though he was disappointed. “I hold no malice at all; I’m a big guy,” Thompson said. “I understand politics.” He said he had expected the news of his endorsement to break the day after the debate, rather than a few hours before. His support for Darouze has been an open secret for many months – Darouze has spent the past two years shadowing the veteran councillor at city hall – but Thompson has shied away from publicly declaring that partnership until now.

The money was raised at a golf tournament at the Metcalfe Golf Club on June 23. “One of the greatest things I’ve received from working with Make a Wish is it has renewed my faith in humanity,” Wlotzki said. “The Lions were a huge part of that.” Make a Wish grants wishes for children between the ages of three and 17 who are dealing with a life-threatening medical condition. The money remains in Eastern Ontario.

Explosion rocks Greely, destroys home and barn Joe Morin and Emma Jackson joe.morin@metroland.com

News - A vacant home on Stagecoach Road in Greely that exploded into a second alarm fire on the evening of Oct. 9 is completely destroyed, as well as a detached garage and barn. Ottawa Fire Services were called to the scene at 1934 Stagecoach Rd. around 8:30 p.m. Firefighters began a defensive attack and representatives

from police, paramedics and Hydro One were also on scene. Fire spokesman Marc Messier said on the morning of Oct. 10 that it’s unclear if anyone was injured in the explosion, which residents said was heard as far away as Metcalfe. “There’s no evidence that there was anybody hurt, but there are still sections we have not been able to access,� Messier said. “So are we 100 per cent sure that nobody got hurt? No.� He was also unable to put

Neighbour Robert Roberts, who lives across the road from the laneway leading to the home, said the noise of the explosion and the shockwave it created was alarming. “We were just getting ready for supper last night when it happened,� he said. “It almost blew my window out. The window actually bulged in about three inches.� Roberts said it felt more like a natural disaster. “The last time I felt something like that was when there was an earthquake centred in Carsonby near North Gower back in the 1980s,� he said.

News - Manotick native Mary Spratt will mark 100 years with an afternoon party at Orchard View Living Centre on Oct. 19. The centenarian was born Mary Clapp on Oct. 16, 1914, one of Dr. William Leach’s first deliveries in the village. She grew up in a custombuilt house at the corner of Clapp Lane and Dickinson Street – a building that is now owned by developer Joe Princiotta and slated for demolition as part of the redevelopment of Dickinson Square. According to her son Winston Spratt, who is the second youngest of eight children, Mary Spratt was a teacher in the area for about a year before marrying Ken Spratt and moving to his dairy farm on Spratt Road, where Winston still lives. “She was a business partner with my dad,” Winston said.

Winston said the afternoon will include refreshments, entertainment and the presentation of certificates from Queen Elizabeth II, Prime Minister Stephen Harper, Governor General David Johnston and other dignitaries congratulating Mary. Winston said his mother has lived through a century of change, contributing as a volunteer with the Red Cross for more than 50 years and relying on self-discipline and her bible to overcome challenges.

“It took me a long time to make this decision but I felt that I owed the residents to give an indication of who I felt would be the best to serve their needs on city council,� Thompson said. He has studied all of the candidates’ flyers and has watched a recent televised debate several times (he doesn’t stay at live debates so the candidates can speak freely). Darouze remains his top choice, he said. Thompson added that he has tried to be fair to all candidates throughout their campaigns, meeting with most of them multiple times and answering their questions. “They’ve asked me how many signs do I put up and I answered; if they ask me who to contact in the community, or if someone asks me a political question, I answer them,� Thompson said. Darouze has shadowed Thompson at city hall for the past two years, and they worked together in 2007 to reopen Albion Road and again in 2011 to create the Osgoode multi-use pathway. Throughout Darouze’s campaign, Thompson has door knocked with Darouze several times and has placed a lawn sign outside his home in Greely. The all-candidates’ meeting was otherwise quite civil.

done. At one point Davis Jermacans even thanked Tom Dawson for taking the initiative to list his campaign donations on his website as they come in, instead of waiting until after Oct. 27. When a resident asked whether the successful candidate will borrow other council hopefuls’ good ideas, many candidates took that even further, suggesting they want to see their competitors taking a hands-on role in the ward. “I do not want any of these people to disappear into the woodwork,� said Bob Masaro, who ran in 2010 against Thompson. “We have to have everyone move forward with us.� Darouze agreed. “For you to be a successful representative at city hall, we have to know what our constituents want,� Darouze said. “We will be putting together a committee, an advisory committee of people with interest in our municipal politics.� Brayman said the debate was an eye-opener for him, in the best way. “I came away impressed with the quality of the candidates,� he said. “They were awesome, they were complimenting each other, they way they worked together was very civil, very respectful.� Election day is Monday, Oct. 27.

Artists take up 24hour comic challenge Emma Jackson emma.jackson@metroland.com

Arts - Doing anything for 24 hours straight is difficult, but three comic book artists were up to the task on Oct. 4 as they took on the annual 24-hour Comics Challenge. Beginning at 10 a.m., Clayton Jacobs and Westin Church joined Suzanne Marsden at her Kanata home for an entire day as part of the global challenge. The goal, Marsden said, is to draw one page per hour – which was harder than it sounds, as Church said he was already a page behind only five hours in. The artists said candy, coffee and the perfect blend of the two – chocolate-covered coffee beans – were all part of their strategy for

staying awake through the wee hours. The event attracts as many as 2,000 artists every year throughout the United States, Canada and the world according to comic retail trade association ComicsPro, which administers the event. American artist Scott McCloud first challenged himself and a friend to complete a 24-hour comic in the summer of 1990, in an effort to blast through writers’ block. The phenomenon began to spread until 2004, when comic book publisher Nat Gertler organized the first official event to be played out at stores across the United States. By 2007, the celebration had spread to 18 countries, involving over 1,200 artists

and producing an estimated 20,000 pages of comics in a single weekend, McCloud said on his website. Marsden said she has participated in the challenge online in the past, but this year wanted to open her home up to other artists who wanted some moral support while they worked. She said it’s a refreshing way to approach your art, especially if you’re stuck in a rut. “Because you’re going so fast, you don’t over think what you’re doing, you just proceed,” said Marsden, who founded the monthly Ottawa Comic Jam in Chinatown with Jacobs several years ago. “Sometimes (you’re drawing) stuff at 2 a.m. that you wouldn’t otherwise think of doing. There are

team participating in an organized way. A comic book shop in Kingston also held an

Since 1962, the LCBO has authorized more than 200 Agency stores to serve communities that have requested service but where the local population is too small to support a regular LCBO or beer store. These Agency stores are operated by local retailers within their existing retail business. Agency store contracts are normally awarded for a five-year term. In communities where there is currently an Agency store, as the contract nears expiry, the LCBO will take into consideration the fact that new businesses in the community may have been established and will allow an opportunity for all businesses in the community to compete for the next five-year term. Operating an LCBO Agency Store provides a retailer with an excellent opportunity to increase revenue and attract customers while providing local residents with beverage alcohol services. Agency stores also deliver economic benefits to the community in many cases through job creation and increased customer traffic for local merchants. Interested businesses must request by mail the application package for this competition before end of business day, Friday, October 24, 2014 and must quote the following information: RFP# 2014-123 Piperville Request for Application Package Procurement and Contract Management, LCBO 1 Yonge Street, Suite 1404 Toronto, ON M5E 1E5 Please note: An application fee of $100 must be included with your request in order to receive an application package. Make the cheque or money order payable to the LCBO only. In order to be considered for this business opportunity, applicants must submit to LCBO Procurement and Contract Management a completed proposal in the required format before the closing date and time, Friday, November 7, 2014, 3 p.m. local time. Late submissions will not be accepted and will be returned unopened. Manotick News - Thursday, October 16, 2014

EDITORIAL

Time for straight trash talk

A

s the municipal election campaign has worn on, the more green bins have become one of the most debated issues across the city. A number of candidates, both for council and mayor, have tapped into widespread resentment of the green bin program, which is seen by critics as a costly inconvenience. Many complain the reduction in garbage pickup from once a week to once every other week has led to reeking piles of maggot-infested refuse in garages and back alleys. On top of this, the city auditor revealed earlier this year that the contract with Orgaworld, the company hired to process the organic waste collected in green bins, has resulted in the city paying a great deal more than it should for the program. Yet the candidates pledging to scrap the green bin program and bring back weekly garbage pickup have some more explaining to do. They need to tell voters how they plan to break the contract with Orgaworld without costing the city millions, as was the case when Ottawa paid out nearly $37 million

after cancelling the original light rail plan. Piling waste on top of more waste is no solution. Those candidates will also need to explain how we can continue sending garbage to the dump when plans to expand the city’s landfill sites are met with stiff opposition from neighbouring residents. Is the idea to force misery on select rural residents in order to spare urban residents from the stench? Those candidates pledging to ditch the green bin program need to be frank with voters. There will be more costs involved with the cancellation. It will not be a free, easy fix. The green bin program was never meant to entirely halt landfill expansion, only to slow the pace of expansion, thereby saving money for the city. That city staffers failed to ensure the city got a good deal with Orgaworld doesn’t mean organics collection is a bad idea – many other cities in Ontario have similar plans. Voters are of course free to make their own choices. They should only do so knowing the true cost of that decision.

rances Itani has been shortlisted for the Giller Prize and Christopher Levenson has been shortlisted for the Governor General’s Literary Award, two Ottawa writers joining a long list of local authors who have been honoured in the last couple of decades. (To be absolutely precise, Levenson moved to Victoria a few years ago, but only after a long spell teaching at Carleton University and being at the core of the local poetry scene, so we still count him as ours.) Itani’s new novel, Tell, is set in Deseronto and picks up where her powerful First World War novel Deafening leaves off. Deafening, published in 2003, was shortlisted for the International IMPAC Dublin Award. Levenson was honoured for

Night Moves, his eleventh published poetry collection. It is easy to forget, given the amount of international culture to which we are exposed through the National Arts Centre and our many festivals, how much home-grown talent there is in this city. Talent is too light a word for it. The gift that people like Itani and Levenson possess owes a lot to dedication, hard work and inspiration. Whatever you call it, there is a lot

of it around. In 2007, two Ottawa writers, Elizabeth Hay and Daniel Poliquin, were on the shortlist for the Giller, the most coveted of the country’s literary awards. Hay won it, for her novel Late Nights on Air. She was shortlisted for a Governor General’s Literary Award in 1997 for Small Change and in 2003 for Garbo Laughs. And Poliquin is up for a Governor General’s Literary Award this year for translation. Emphasis on literary awards can be misleading.

If you check back over previous shortlists for the major Canadian literary awards, you find other fiction writers such as Mark Frutkin, shortlisted for the Governor General’s Award, and Dorothy Speak, anthologized in the Journey Prize Anthology. On the GG shortlist there are children’s authors such as Brian Doyle, Tim Wynne-Jones, Jan Andrews and Carolyn Pignat. There are the non-fiction writers Denise Chong, and Charlotte Gray. It goes without saying that many worthy writers have been left off this hastily composed list.

Steel Magnolias offers fun night out Emma Jackson emma.jackson@metroland.com

Arts - Be delicate as a flower, but tough as steel: that’s the message from the classic comedydrama Steel Magnolias, coming to the Osgoode community centre this November from the Isle in the River theatre company. Opening Friday, Nov. 14, the play follows six women from Louisiana who rely on each other to overcome life’s challenges with grace and humour. Set largely in a beauty parlour where the women gather on Saturday mornings, the play follows Shelby through her decision to have

great girls’ night out, or even a date night with your partner. Even though the story is set in the 1980s, it’s got universal appeal, she added. “I think it’s even more relevant today, when people tend to be more distant from each other, more distant from their connections,” Beltzner said. “These women are each other’s family, even though they’re not related.” This year’s cast is largely from the Osgoode and Rideau Township areas, although a few cast members have travelled from other parts of the city. Along with Beltzner, the cast includes Sophie Hall, Elizabeth Chant, Janice Blampied, Jennifer Orlewicz and Paula Maloney – all of whom have been working on their best southern drawl. Director Lorraine Hopkins said the cast has worked together to showcase the best of humanity. “This play ... demonstrates we all have an inner toughness that sees us through life’s ups and downs, with love and laughter and the support of our friends,” she said.

a baby despite her health issues. As things fall apart, the bond between the women shines through in the form of wild humour. “The story is really about the friendship between these women, the way they support each other when things get tough,” said Judy Beltzner, who plays Shelby’s mother M’Lynn. “They’ve got this hilarious banter. There’s sadness in it, but even in the sadness there are hilarious moments.” Beltzner said the play is not just a “chick flick,” nor is it as sad as the film version many remember from 1989. She said the play makes for a

SCENE CHANGE

Steel Magnolias is a departure for the Osgoode theatre group, which is known for producing farces. Beltzner said an audience survey earlier this year revealed that many of their members would like to see more traditional comedy – material that is at once thought-provoking and funny. “We thought Steel Magnolias fell into that category,” Beltzner said. The theatre company plans to still produce one farce a year, while exploring more dramatic comedies for its second production. Beltzner said the group is also considering adding a third, edgier show to the calendar each year, to appeal to a slightly different audience than their traditional demographic of middleaged couples. Also this year, the group has changed up its dinner theatre schedule, adding a second Saturday as demand has grown. Dinner will now be available Nov. 15 and Nov. 22.

Isle in the River actresses Paula Maloney, left, as Ouiser, Elizabeth Chant as Annelle, Judy Beltzner as M’Lynn, Sophie Hall as Truvy rehearse at the Osgoode community centre. Steel Magnolias will open Nov. 14. Beltzer said the theatre’s switch to Creative Kosher Catering a few years ago has increased demand for the dinner theatre program, but adding an extra row of tables has meant it’s harder for patrons at the back to hear. The menu includes several salads, dilled salmon, Mediterranean chicken, roast beef, gourmet vegetables and a vast sea of sweets.

“There are enough desserts to provide you with calories for the rest of your life,” Beltzner added. Tickets are $18 for a single ticket without a dinner and $48 including dinner and the show. Tickets can be purchased at itrtheatre.com MUTT MYSTERY

Isle in the River is moving into the community by way of a murder mystery in support of the Ottawa Therapy Dogs on Nov. 5. Death Goes to the Dogs is a specially-written murder mystery for the fundraiser, which revolves around an award dinner for “the best dog ever,” Beltzner said. Throughout the dinner – also catered by Creative Kosher, this time at Temple Israel near Hog’s Back – ITR actors will perform short scenes and skits between making rounds to patrons. The audience will then vote on the killer, and those who are correct are entered into a draw to win a prize. Beltzner said the partnership was something the actors “jumped at.” She knows first-hand the value of the therapy dogs, and she and her dog Tigger go to CHEO several times a months to visit children in the trauma and surgical rehab unit. “They have a chance to interact with Tigger and snuggle with him,” she said. “It has been proven that stroking a dog lowers your stress, lowers your blood pressure. And kids with mobility issues are more likely reach out for the dog than for other things in their physio.” To reserve a ticket email events@ottawatherapydogs.ca.

Fall always created unique smells on the farm

M

y older and much wiser sister Audrey said it was all in my head. I had discussed it with her at length one Saturday while we were doing our weekly chores. That morning we were upstairs changing beds, dusting the floor with the rag mop, and wiping the windowsills with a damp cloth. It was a time I cherished because it meant I had my sister all to myself, even if she was in a hurry to get finished so that she could visit with her best friend Iva on the next farm. And so I asked her again. “Audrey, why does fall smell

MARY COOK Mary Cook’s Memories different than other times of the year?” That’s when she told me it was all in my head. I certainly didn’t want to argue with my sister. After all, she was much older than I was, and as far as I was concerned was just about the smartest girl in all of Ren-

frew County. So I decided I would not mention it again. I would just go on believing in my heart that fall smelled differently from any other time of the year. All I had to do was stand at the back door, put my head outside and breathe deeply.

The big maple tree had shed all its leaves, and I could smell them. No one could convince me that there was no smell from them -- it was a mixture of damp ground and dried leaves. I would fill my nostrils with the scent and marvel. I would wonder if I was the only one who noticed there was a difference between the smells of summer and fall. The frost would come and I knew the smell outside would change again. I knew without a doubt that the smoke from the cook stove was different once the colder weather came. At no other time of the year did I

notice the wonderful smell of burning logs as I watched the smoke curl above the roof of the house. And I would wonder why. When I went into the barns at night, they certainly didn’t smell like they did in the heat of the summer. The cows gave off a warmth and it filled the barn, and the aroma of the hay from the loft wafted down. Even the straw in each stall had what I called a cold weather smell. When I mentioned this to my sister Audrey, she said it was just my imagination playing tricks on me. It was all in

my head, she said. The inside of our house smelled different too. The windows were shut tight, and trapped inside were the smells of gum rubbers, propped against the woodbox beside the Findlay Oval, and the musty smell of winter coats hanging at the back door. I could smell wool. Everywhere there was wool -- in the hats and mitts at the ready for the winter in a basket under the bake table, there was wool. Certainly, these things were nowhere to be seen in the summer. See SCENTS, page 13

UNE OCCASION D’EXPLOITER UN MAGASIN-AGENCE S’OFFRE AUX COMMERÇANTS DE PIPERVILLE DEMANDE DE PROPOSITIONS LCBO DDP N° 2014-123 PIPERVILLE Une excellente occasion d’affaires s’offre aux détaillants de Piperville. La Régie des alcools de l’Ontario (LCBO) recherche un détaillant responsable et soucieux du service à la clientèle pour exploiter un magasin-agence de la LCBO à Piperville. Pour être admissible, vous devez exploiter un commerce de vente au détail déjà établi dans la localité et vous engager à respecter les lignes directrices de la LCBO. Pour faciliter la vente de boissons alcooliques, le candidat choisi pourrait avoir à conclure des ententes commerciales différentes avec la LCBO et avec les fournisseurs de bières canadiennes. Le candidat retenu devra également suivre un programme de formation spécial de la LCBO qui a trait à la responsabilité reliée à la vente des boissons alcooliques. Depuis l962, la LCBO a autorisé plus de 200 magasins-agences qui desservent les localités qui ont demandé un service de vente d’alcool, mais dont la population est insuffisante pour y établir une succursale régulière de la LCBO ou un magasin de bière. Les magasins-agences sont confiés à des détaillants locaux et s’annexent à un commerce de détail existant. Le contrat d’un magasin-agence est normalement d’une durée de cinq ans. Au cours de la cinquième année d’exploitation d’un magasin-agence, la LCBO tient compte des nouveaux commerces établis dans la localité et donne à tous la chance de présenter leur candidature pour le prochain terme de cinq ans. Un détaillant qui exploite un magasin-agence a la possibilité d’augmenter ses revenus en attirant une clientèle additionnelle tout en offrant aux citoyens de sa localité les produits et services de la LCBO. Un magasin-agence contribue également à l’économie de la localité souvent par la création de nouveaux emplois et par l’augmentation de l’achalandage chez les autres marchands locaux. Les commerçants intéressés sont invités à faire la demande du dossier de soumission pour ce concours par la poste avant 17 h, le vendredi 24 octobre 2014. La demande doit être adressée de la façon suivante :

DDP N° 2014-123 Piperville Demande du dossier de soumission Directeur des achats, LCBO 1, rue Yonge, bureau 1404 Toronto (Ontario) M5E 1E5

Les candidats doivent soumettre leur formulaire de proposition complet et dans les normes au Service des achats de la LCBO avant 15 h (heure locale) le vendredi 7 novembre 2014. Les propositions reçues en retard ne seront pas acceptées. Elles seront retournées à l’expéditeur sans être lues. 12

Round and round

Scents of the season So how could my sister Audrey say it was all in my head? I would wonder why she too didn’t notice the smell of fall. By the time we were well into October, Mother would have put out the braided rugs that had spent the summer rolled up in layers of the Renfrew Mercury and kept under our beds. They too had the smell of fall on them. There would be the faint aroma of wool and from the papers, and they would add to that special tinge to my nose that told me the season had changed. The smells of summer were gone, and the smells of fall were around me. By that time of year, our summer clothes would be changed to warmer skirts and sweaters. They had been packed

away in a trunk over the hot weather, with hands full of mothballs scattered between the layers. It mattered not how long Mother hung each piece out on the clothesline, she was never able to completely get rid of the smell of the mothballs. They too had the smell of fall. So, it mattered not how much my older and wiser sister Audrey said it was all in my head. I knew without a doubt, this time of year there was a special smell all around me. It came in gusts outside, and hung inside our old log house, and stayed in my nostrils, bringing me a special feeling of warmth and contentment. At that young age, I decided it was my favourite time of the year. There was no doubt about it. Fall had come at last – hadn’t my nose told me so?

Potato, ham and mushroom frittata great use for leftover potatoes Lifestyle - Here is a tasty way to use up leftover cooked potatoes. Serve for breakfast, brunch or a light supper. Preparation time: 10 minutes. Cooking time: 18 to 21 minutes. Serves four. INGREDIENTS

• 15 ml (1 tbsp) vegetable oil • 1 onion, diced • 250 ml (1 cup) sliced mushrooms • 375 ml (1-1/2 cups) chopped cooked peeled potatoes • 250 ml (1 cup) diced ham • 8 eggs • 25 ml (2 tbsp) milk • 5 ml (1 tsp) Dijon mustard • 1 ml (1/4 tsp) dried thyme leaves • pinch each salt and pepper • 125 ml (1/2 cup) grated aged cheddar cheese PREPARATION

In an ovenproof 25-centi-

metre (10-inch) skillet, heat the oil over medium heat. Add the onion and mushrooms and cook until the vegetables are softened, about four minutes. Stir in the potatoes and ham and heat through, for about 2 minutes, stirring often. Spread the mixture to make even layer. In medium bowl, beat together the eggs, milk, mustard, thyme, salt and pepper. Carefully pour the egg mixture into the skillet, tipping it to spread the egg mixture evenly. Cover and cook over medium-low heat, without stirring, until the eggs are almost set, but still moist on the surface, about 10 to 12 minutes. Adjust the oven rack so it is about 10 centimetres (four inches) below the broiler element. Turn on the broiler to high. Scatter cheese evenly over

News - Being third in the country pays off when it means you can support the charities closest to you. On Oct. 7, Manotick’s Rexall drug store manager Greg Brown donated $5,000 each to CHEO and the Ottawa Children’s Treatment Centre after coming third in a nation-wide fundraising challenge. The Rexall Foundation granted its top three stores $10,000 to donate to charities of their choice, and Brown chose to support two organizations that work closely with his five-year-old son, Jack.

Jack was born with CHARGE syndrome, a rare genetic disorder that can result in life-threatening birth defects, including complex heart defects and breathing problems, hearing loss, vision loss, and balance problems. According to Brown, Jack has had a tracheostomy to help him breathe, and also has a feeding tube. He can’t walk and is non-verbal. “But he’s the happiest child you’ll ever meet,” Brown said. Brown and his wife have relied on CHEO and the Ottawa Children’s Treatment Centre to help Jack through his previous 16 surgeries, and they’ll be there for him again on Oct. 22

OVER

when he has his 17th. Brown said Jack has likely spent about a year and a half of his life in hospital, and his doctor Matthew Bromwich, who was at the cheque presentation on Oct. 7, has “gone above and beyond” to help him. Bromwich, an ear/nose/ throat surgeon, said part of the money will be used to finish a new healing garden at the hospital, where kids can get outside for some fresh air – and maybe even get their hands dirty in the communal vegetable gardens. The other half of the funds will support a nurse practitioner for a new complex airways clinic, which brings doctors,

therapists and caregivers of children with complex breathing cases together in one room. At the Ottawa Children’s Treatment Centre, Jack has also had access to physiotherapy, occupational therapy and feeding and speech therapy since his birth. “His progress has been astounding,” Brown said. “Without their help he wouldn’t be thriving.” But the Brown family has had its share of setbacks along the way. In October 2009, on the very day Jack was having double surgery at CHEO, Brown was down the street starting

daily doses of aggressive chemotherapy to destroy the melanoma that was diagnosed three months after his son was born. “It’s been a rough ride; they almost lost me twice,” Brown said. At the time, he was given six months to live. Brown’s cancer has since been contained – he will never be in remission – but the Manotick community continues to support the family through donations in the store. By the end of the threeweek fundraising campaign in August, the store had raised $8,700, coming third in the country and earning $10,000 to donate as Brown wished. Throughout the journey, the

Rexall Foundation has been very supportive. Staff gifted $3,000 to “the Brown boys” through a golf tournament that year, and when they heard about Brown’s cancer diagnosis they made an immediate donation to the Canadian Cancer Society. Brown said he will continue to fundraise at the store to help the organizations that have helped him – and he knows Manotick residents will support him. “There (have been) customers coming in and crying while donating at the cash,” he said. “It’s really touching.” See photo, page 17

CHARITABLE GIVING WITH LIFE INSURANCE POLICIES - A WIN-WIN FOR BOTH FAMILY AND CHARITIES The use of life insurance in the context of charitable gifting at death will appeal to those who want to reduce or eliminate taxes at death and/or have a strong desire to make a larger bequest to one or more charities. By Shawn Ryan, CFP, TEP Partner and Senior Insurance and Estate Planner Scrivens Insurance and Financial Solutions

Life insurance is a popular, practical way to make a significant gift to CHEO. Your donation will be wisely administered through investments which will provide a stable source of income to CHEO for years to come. There are three main methods you can gift life insurance: by making a bequest of the proceeds of a life insurance policy through your Will; donating the policy during your lifetime at fair market value; or by naming CHEO as beneficiary and remaining as policy owner.

Here is a scenario where a mother owns a family business and wishes to gift the shares to her adult children through a provision in her Will. She wants to eliminate capital gains taxes of the shares payable at her death. The taxable capital gains reportable on the deemed disposition of shares on death is $500,000 and tax owing on this amount is $230,000 (base on a 46% marginal tax rate). She also wants to make a sizeable donation to her favourite charitable organization, but doesn’t want to reduce her estate assets. Given the options mentioned above, she decides that the most viable solution is to

purchase a permanent life insurance policy for $500,000 and donate the proceeds to charity through her Will. This is a win-win for both her family and the charity. She will own the policy during her lifetime and name her estate as policy beneficiary. She will direct that a gift in an amount equal to the life insurance proceeds be paid to a charity named in the Will. The charity will receive the lump sum amount equal to the insurance proceeds upon her death. A tax receipt issued for 100% of the donation by the charity will qualify for a tax credit to be used in her final tax return. This credit has completely eliminated the tax liability on the shares at death and

The use of life insurance in the context of charitable gifting at death will appeal to those who want to reduce or eliminate taxes at death and/or have a strong desire to make a larger bequest to one or more charities. This should be considered in the bigger context of planned giving options available to donors both during their lifetime and at death.

the estate value is preserved. In this case, premiums for the life insurance policy are paid with a relatively small percentage of the funds that would otherwise have been used to pay taxes owing.

Ballet taps local talent for Canadian Nutcracker Jennifer McIntosh jennifer.mcintosh@metroland.com

SUBMITTED PHOTOS

Clea Iveson, education manager for Ballet Jorgen, said the company looked at dozens of dancers for the local casting of the Nutcracker, A Canadian Tradition.

Arts - Local ballet dancers got their chance to shine on Oct. 4 thanks to annual casting call by Ballet Jorgen at the Nepean Creative Arts Centre. The company puts on an annual musical each December called The Nutcracker, A Canadian Tradition. The production will go live at the Centrepointe and Shenkman theatres from Dec. 13 to 15. The play is modelled on the traditional Nutcracker story, but Ballet Jorgen dances through the magnificent landscapes of Canada with stunning backdrops that highlight masterpieces by the Group of Seven. Audiences are taken on Klara’s magical dream journey as she experiences a Canadian winter filled with enchanted snowflakes, lumberjacks, Mounties and creatures of the forest. There are a core of six dancers from the company’s home base in Toronto, but as the company tours the prov-

ince, they cast nearly 20 dancers from ages eight to 17 in roles such as frogs and dragon flies. “The frogs are typically for the younger dancers and require less skill,” said Clea Iveson, the education manager for Ballet Jorgen, adding even the audition is a wonderful ex-

perience. Prospective dancers were evaluated by as many as three volunteer judges. They are judged on everything from style and choreography to their ability to get into character. “If they are a frog, we want to see how they jump, for ex-

ample,” Iveson said. “It’s a tough process and one they have to get used to if they’re hoping to make a career out of dancing.” The mandate of the ballet company is to build communities through dance. Organizers host 600 events across the country each year.

it’s traumatic and it’s serious, but for us in terms of the range of cases that we see we’re not seeing anything out of the ordinary. “We see respiratory illness every year that can require hospitalization.” In the U.S., while clusters of patients with the EV-D68 strain of the virus have suffered from muscle weakness and paralysis, in follow-ups here, CHEO patients have not shown any neurological symptoms or symptoms that are out of the ordinary, Schacherl said. “We haven’t seen it, thank goodness. We’re going to be continuing to monitor that and look out for it,” she said, adding that muscle paralysis and weakness also appear with other types of viruses. “What is unusual is to see some clusters.” The CHEO cases involving EV-D68 were positively tested at the national microbiology laboratory in Winnipeg. The results, which take weeks to come back, are beneficial for researchers and those

studying epidemics, but do not alter the course of treatment in hospital. “Even if we could get (the test results) instantly, it wouldn’t change the treatment because there’s no vaccine or specific treatment for this strain,” Schacherl said. From now on, CHEO will only send away samples to test for EV-D68 in serious cases “because that is consistent with what other hospitals are doing,” she said. “So we’ve … got that information in terms of, ‘Are we (just) seeing just D68? No, we’re seeing a mix (of different viruses),’ so now we can just move forward knowing that that’s the case,” Schacherl said. “It wouldn’t make sense for us to continue testing every patient with a respiratory illness.” CHEO announced on Sept. 24 it was taking extra precautions to prevent the spread of infection after three patients came down with respiratory illnesses while already in hospital. Every fall, when children

return to school, CHEO sees a spike in the number of respiratory illnesses in the emergency room. In September, visits were up seven per cent compared to last year. About 25 per cent of visits to the ER last month were for respiratory illness, up from 16 per cent last year. “So we’re up a bit from the last year, but not hugely out of the ordinary,” Schacherl said, adding the hospital is seeing a mix of different viruses. With the outbreak over, the hospital no longer has special precautions in place. “We just have ongoing infection prevention measures which do include some rules around visitors, number of visitors, hand hygiene, cleaning – all the things we do on an ongoing basis,” Schacherl said. In cases involving severe respiratory illness, patients may be placed in isolation. “It’s really case by case,” she said. “It’s based on the actual patient and what symptoms they present.”

Homes for the Holidays kicks off another holiday season michelle.nash@metroland.com

News - Hospice Care Ottawa is ready to kick off this year’s holiday season with its annual home tour fundraiser. “Homes for the Holidays has become a tradition,” said Jane Panet, honourary chairwoman of this year’s tour. “We are delighted that this year’s tour offers so many new

exciting features. But what remains the same is the important reason why our hundreds of volunteers work so hard to make this beautiful home tour such a wonderful experience - they’re all dedicated to ensuring that the essential services provided by Hospice Care Ottawa remain available to the public.” Now in its 12th year, the Homes for the Holidays tour

COMPREHENSIVE EYE EXAMINATIONS INCLUDING CATARACT, GLAUCOMA DIABETIC AND LASER VISION ASSESSMENT

invite Ottawa residents to tour extravagant homes across the city from Kanata to Rockcliffe Park this year. From Nov. 14-16, people will have the opportunity to view the many different homes on the list, including the chance to stop by the residence of the Irish ambassador to purchase holiday crafts, jewelry, children’s toys, as well as savoury preserves

from local artisans. In addition to the homes, the organizers have also added a few new features to the tour, including the opportunity to tour Hospice Care Ottawa’s newest facility in Kanata, the Rudy-Shenkman Hospice, where holiday shoppers can bid on hand-made wreaths. The Orange Gallery will also open its doors, showcasing different holiday table settings as well as the chance to win one of local artists Gayle Kells original paintings. Last year, the event helped raise enough money to offer patients 425 days of hospice care, or $170,000 for the hospice. Each home will be decorated for the festive season, including floral arrangements from flower shops across the city. According to the hospice, more than 500 volunteers help out with this annual fundraiser, from greeters at the homes or helping out at the holiday shop. Tickets for the tour are $50.

Hospice Care Ottawa will hold its annual Homes for the Holidays fundraising tour Nov. 14-16 at eight locations across the city.

Chaudière rezoning OKed despite critics’ pleas People line up to plead islands be protected as sacred indigenous site Laura Mueller laura.mueller@metroland.com

News - After hearing positive feedback about Windmill’s proposed Chaudière and Albert islands redevelopment, members of the planning committee were caught off guard by dozens of people who showed up to oppose the project during an Oct. 2 planning committee meeting. In the end, both the planning committee and full city council approved the rezoning to allow the plan to move forward. Although Windmill’s Jeff Westiende said the developer’s consultations, which attracted more than 1,000 people, didn’t receive any major opposition from groups including the AlDidn’t get your War Amps key tags in the mail? Order them today!

gonquins of Ontario, 47 delegates signed up to speak in opposition of the major redevelopment plan, which would see the former industrial paper-mill islands and part of the Quebec waterfront transformed into a mixed-use community built with ecologically friendly aspirations. The site is around 650 metres north of the LeBreton Transitway station (the future Pimisi light-rail station) at the end of Booth Street. If the development is approved and built, it would become home to 1,200 residential units, 17,000 square metres of office space and 4,800 square metres of retail space. That didn’t appease critics who attended the planning committee meeting. Many invoked the vision of the late William Commanda, chief of the Kitigàn-zìbì Anishinàbeg First Nation. Commanda wanted to honor the sacred site called Asinabka, which refers to the Chaudière Falls, Chaudière Island, and Victoria Island by redevelop-

ing the area with an indigenous centre, a regional and national history centre and a conference facility. Capital Coun. David Chernushenko summed up the issue during the council meeting on Oct. 8: “I can’t find the words to say how awkward this situation is.” But Chernushenko, Somerset Coun. Diane Holmes – whose ward includes the project – and other councillors agreed the plan was the best way to move forward, especially because they felt the city could have a good working and negotiating relationship with the developer, Windmill. The item was up for discussion at the meeting because the 7.3-hectare property, paper-mill owner Domtar sold to Windmill in December of 2013, is currently zoned as parkland, even though it was occupied by an industrial facility for years. In an unusual situation, Albert and Chaudière islands do not have a land-use designation in the city’s secondary plan

thing,” said Phil Weir, another speaker. Others worried that the development would “privatize” Chaudière Falls and restrict access to the waterfall to only those rich enough to live in the new development. Westiende said Windmill’s goal is to make the site accessible to everyone. He said the company is open to dialog about how to improve its proposed community, which it is calling the Isles. Biola Smith, one of the speakers, said she didn’t see a way Commanda and Windmill’s visions could be reconciled. “I believe in development.

We are in the world – this is the way it is,” she said. “It is a nice development, but I believe, in the city there must be another place.” In November of 2010, the city’s community and protective services committee approved a motion and report from thenBay Coun. Alex Cullen for the city to indicate its support for a National Indigenous Centre in the Nation’s Capital, and to encourage the federal government to work with stakeholders such as First Nations and the provincial government to establish that centre on Victoria Island, which is not part of Windmill’s redevelopment.

During the Oct. 2 planning committee meeting, speaker after speaker implored the committee to reject the application, saying the land should be kept as parkland until a broader discussion on how to implement Commanda’s vision can be found. “This has been a sacred site,” said Judith Matheson, who described herself as a student of Commanda’s. “This was their Mecca.” “Look into your hearts as to whether you are doing the right

News - In Ontario, the month of October is Child Abuse and Prevention Month. Because of this, the students in the child and youth worker program at Algonquin College are raising awareness about the issue. The Purple Ribbon Campaign highlights child abuse and how to prevent it. “The child and youth worker program is running info booths at Algonquin College throughout the month,”

said student Robin Pitman, who is in the program. According to the Ontario Association of Children’s Aid Societies only 42 per cent of Ottawa residents know how to report child abuse to the Ottawa Children’s Aid Society. Despite that low response, 167,990 possible cases were reported to Canadian Children’s Aid Societies in in 2012, with 85,227 considered serious enough to prompt an investigation.

Province to allow taller wood buildings Laura Mueller laura.mueller@metroland.com

News - New provincial rules to allow buildings of up to six storeys to be constructed with wood will be a “game changer”

for Ottawa, according to the president of the local homebuilders’ association. John Herbert, president of the Greater Ottawa Homebuilders’ Association, said the Ontario government’s announcement on

R0012941529-1016

Sept. 23 that it will increase the height of buildings that can be constructed with wood frames from four to six storeys is a great idea that will increase residential density while allowing for more creative architecture. Herbert said he anticipates a number of builders will jump on the chance to build six-storey wood-frame structures when the Building Code changes come into effect Jan. 1, 2015 – mainly because it is cheaper than concrete. Studies show that a woodframe building costs about 15 to 20 per cent less to put up than a concrete structure, Herbert said. But more importantly, it will change the streetscapes in Ottawa, he said. Right now, there are very few buildings between six and 10 storeys in Ottawa because it was not economically feasible to construct a building of that height and density in concrete, Herbert said. “It’s a no-man’s land,” he said. That cost effectiveness

The Manotick News published a series of articles on my business. Now everyone knows how great we are!

should translate into more affordable homes, Herbert said. Now, builders can use wood and build a profitable project at the six-storey height, Herbert said. He also expects the buildings will look nicer. Creating interesting and intricate facades isn’t easy with concrete buildings, which often end up looking like flat slabs, Herbert said. Wood construction is a much more flexible material and will allow building facades to be stepped in at points to break up the fronts of buildings. Herbert pointed to British Columbia, where about 50 sixstorey wood –frame buildings have been constructed since that province changed the law in 2009, but around 200 more have been approved or are under construction. Seattle has allowed similar building forms for 25 years, Herbert said. Barrhaven Coun. Jan Harder, vice chairwoman of the planning committee, said allowing this new form of building will help the city “hold the line” on urban sprawl.

Starting Jan. 1, homebuilders in Ontario will be allowed to construct taller wood-frame builders. Harder said she could anticipate some builders coming back to the city to request rezonings for six-storey buildings in order to “take advantage of this new form.” “We’ll have to deal with that, but I think that the province in saying that it’s possible to do it, is going to allow us and the developers, too, who are building our communities, to make better land use,” Harder said. “It also allows us to get the density in a different fashion, which will allow more space to possibly more pathways, more space for people to live on,” she said. The move, which the province said is intended to support

the forestry industry, will be especially beneficial to local companies that produce prefabricated wood panels, Herbert said. That’s because the panels can cut down construction times – the period when the wood buildings are most susceptible to fires, mainly arson, Herbert said. Once a modern wood-frame structure is built with sprinkler systems in place, the risk of it being destroyed by fire are quite low, he said. Other fire-safety measures include a requirement that stairwells be made of non-combustible materials and roofs be combustion resistant.
