Rideau-Goulbourn candidates face off on Manotick’s future Laura Mueller

laura.mueller@metroland.com

News - Rideau-Goulbourn candidates Scott Moffatt and Dan Scharf went head-to-head over issues from garbage to roads during a question-and-answer session Oct. 10.

Hosted by the Manotick Village and Community Association, many of the questions – both from the association and the audi-

ence – focused on the future of Manotick.

Scharf, a business executive and risk-management expert, is taking on oneterm incumbent councillor Moffatt.

The candidates answered with some opposing views.

While Moffatt said he would continue to focus on what residents want and keep up the level of public consultation on things like the future of Dickinson

Square and the Manotick secondary plan, Scharf said he’d come at things a different way.

He wants to put the brakes on a process five years in the making to sell some of the city-owned Dickinson Square buildings.

“I don’t think it should be sold to anybody... They should be made a public asset,” Scharf said.

“It needs to be protected and preserved the way it is … Let’s stop that process right now.”

Moffatt said the square is the most important part of the village and its future should be based on what residents want.

Residents gathered to listen to council and school trustee candidates answer questions at a meeting hosted by the Manotick and Village Community Association on Oct. 10. Voters will choose their local representatives on Monday, Oct. 27.

Manotick’s secondary plan the focus of discussion Moffatt said he has prioritized residents’ wishes in the last term – such as protection of the square’s open spaces – and he will continue to do that. “We’ll continue to focus on what you want. It’s your square,�

Moffatt said. “It’s something we need to protect and preserve ... (I’m) looking forward to being there with you every step of the way.�

When asked about the longawaited Manotick secondary plan that’s currently being drafted, Scharf focused on general development concerns in the village rather than specific components that should be addressed in the plan, which he said “hasn’t been shown to too many people at this point.�

Preserving the character of the village is key, Scharf said, as is the discrepancy between what kind of residential development is coming to Manotick and the type of homes people would like to purchase.

Moffatt leaned on his detailed knowledge of the plan and the yearlong process underway so far.

He said the goal of the direction of the plan so far is to take the

same strategy that’s been applied to Dickinson Square and it to the entire village core.

Development needs to respect the character of the village, while still allowing for business growth, Moffatt said.

Pathways and pedestrian connectivity will be important things to focus on, Moffatt said.

Scharf also mentioned the plan should include community service facilities such as police, as well as truck traffic.

Transport truck routes were another topic discussed during the meeting. “I would love to tell you it’s easy� to remove 18-wheelers from the village, Moffatt said.

There are challenges to getting a truck-route study underway, Moffatt said, including delays caused by a plan to study a truck tunnel for downtown Ottawa, which will need to be done before the larger routing study.

Moffatt said the city needs to work with the trucking industry to find ways to share the load between the three bridges at Strandherd Drive, Roger Stevens Drive and Bridge Street to ensure no one community is unfairly burdened by

Scharf said the community needs to be proactive in approaching developers to pursue residential building options that appeal to them. “Let’s go and get what we need instead of waiting for it to happen to us,� he said.

Moffatt focused on finding more funding to expand Hayfield and suggested some of the money dedicated to a citywide housing and homelessness fund should be transferred from downtown projects and used for rural seniors’ housing.

The project would also need provincial and federal funding, Moffatt said.

Other topics covered included the urban boundary, wind turbines, sewer and water servicing, libraries, hydro rates and the Orgaworld organics-processing contract.

crossing signals that will work for Manotick in locations such as near Watson’s Mill.

Scharf said police enforcement and police presence is the best way to slow speeders.

He was also in favour of reducing the speed limit to 60 km/h on roads approaching the village.

On crosswalks, Scharf said he’s interested in the types of pedestrian signals the southern Ontario village of St. Jacobs has, although he acknowledged that municipal liability is an issue, as the signals don’t meet the highway traffic act requirements.

Aging residents are concerned about finding a place to live in Manotick when they downsize, according to a question submitted by an audience member who wanted to know how candidates would tackle the issue.

truck traffic.

Scharf took an opposite approach, saying all trucks should be removed from Bridge Street as soon as possible. “’How?’ is more complicated,� he said.

Now that an extension of Earl Armstrong Road has been pushed off until after 2031 – a change to the transportation master plan Moffatt brought forward – Scharf said there is no incentive for trucks to use the new Vimy Memorial Bridge at Strandherd and Armstrong roads. He said fixing intersections to make it easier for large trucks to turn and get to River Road will make a difference.

Traffic calming and pedestrian safety in the village was another topic Moffatt and Scharf differed on.

Moffatt said he has supported the community association’s efforts to put up its own “Keep it to 40 km/h� signs, but he said artificially reducing the actual speed limit won’t automatically cause motorists to drive slower – visually narrowing roads will.

Moffatt said he and the city are expecting forthcoming changes to the provincial Highway Traffic Act to allow for the kinds of pedestrian

Prepare to be scared: Mill to host even creepier haunt nights RE-ELECT Emma Jackson

emma.jackson@metroland.com

Community - Legend has it that Watson’s Mill has been haunted since the death of a young bride more than 150 years ago.

Ghostly sightings, unexplained footsteps and hairraising happenings have made the mill a popular destination for paranormal investigators for years, and staff have built on that reputation with a threeday haunting extravaganza just in time for Halloween.

The inaugural haunted house had 600 people running for the exits last year, and now the second-annual event will extend its bony grasp to the mill’s second storey.

“Be prepared to be scared,” said education officer Cam Trueman. “We’re going to put a lot more emphasis on action.”

Beginning Oct. 23, guests can work up the courage to wander through the Watson’s Mill maze despite the risk of running afoul of wily witches, demonic dolls and a basement full of zombies. Trueman said the haunted house will be scarier and longer than last year – adding he wants the haunting to someday take over the whole village.

“We eventually want to build this down the street,” he said. “My goal in 10 years is to have the whole village involved.”

Already the teen demo-

graphic is heavily involved, with volunteers from area high schools populating the gory grist mill and grabbing at guests as they run past.

The mill has partnered with the Manotick Village Community Association’s youth group to make the event possible.

The event runs Thursday, Oct. 23 to Saturday, Oct. 25 from 7 to 9:30 p.m. Tickets are $5. It is not recommended for children under 10.

PARANORMAL ACTIVITY

For those looking for a more scientific explanation of the realm of the undead, the mill will also offer its annual Halloween ghost hunt in partnership with the Haunted Ot-

tawa Paranormal Society.

For the first time in many moons, Halloween has fallen on a Friday – a most auspicious day for a paranormal investigation at Watson’s Mill.

Investigators from the paranormal society will visit the mill between 7 and 11 p.m. on Oct. 31 armed with special equipment to sense activity from the other side.

Trueman said the last time

Halloween fell on a Friday in 2008 the paranormal investigation proved more lucrative than usual.

“Let’s just say there was a lot of activity on that particular night,” he said.

While the haunted house caters to those looking to get scared out of their wits, Trueman said the investigation is a serious affair.

“People will get a chance to

work alongside a well-educated group of paranormal investigators who have had years of experience behind them,” Trueman said. “They’ll get to see the equipment and see how it’s used and hopefully along the way pick up something we haven’t seen or heard before.”

Tickets are $25 each. Call to reserve at 613-692-6455 or get them online.

Lynn Scott

Incumbent Lynn Scott has represented the area for 20 years, and she said she wants to finish what she started with one more term in office.

“I want to finish some of the things I’ve gotten started.

First and foremost, my focus has always been on student achievement,” Scott said.

She said her work on special education policy and individualized instruction has been a long work in progress, and she is best placed to continue that work since she has a deep understanding of the system.

“We’re going to have at least a 50 per cent turnover

cludes all of Rideau-Goulbourn, Stittsville and West Carleton-March wards, and its challenges range from transportation in the rural areas to the need for new capital projects in growing communities.

The 12-person public board of trustees (plus two student trustees) governs the Ottawa-Carleton District School Board and sets policy for the operation of all public schools in the Ottawa area, according to the school board’s website.

Trustees communicate with the public, set board policies, lobby the ministry of education for legislative change and advocate for quality education.

Voters will choose their trustees on Oct. 27.

Manotick News - Thursday, October 23, 2014

in the board this year, which would mean we could end up with a board where no one has more than five years experience, and many of the issues have their roots before that,” Scott said. “It’s really important to understand where that’s coming from, and have the capacity to know who to call and how to do the pushing.”

That knowledge base will also come in handy this year as the board begins its collective bargaining process, she said.

“I have a better knowledge of where we’re at in the process,” Scott said.

Her capital priorities for Zone 1 include putting an addition on West Carleton’s high school and building a brand new high school in Stittsville.

While this would pull students away from South Carleton High School, Scott said growth in Manotick and Richmond will make up for some of that loss.

She also wants to foster the school’s strong specialist programs.

The school could attract more students from the suburbs to take part in those programs, but transportation issues need to be addressed.

“Right now we don’t have a very good transport arrangement to help those kids get there,” Scott said.

Sue Grant

Carp resident Sue Grant wants to get away from policy and into classrooms to talk to real parents, students and teachers.

“I want to increase communication with parents, with community groups,” Grant said. “I want to provide a forum for school councils to exchange information and ideas; I want to get the school boards and the city getting working more closely together.”

Grant has a background in business communications, and her children have attended public and Catholic schools in Ontario as well as public and private schools in the United Kingdom.

She has spent years advocating for her son in the special education system, and has been an active parent council member for 15 years.

Grant said she has been preparing for this campaign for about three years. She would like to see more conversation and co-operation between the public and Catholic boards, as

If we could get kids in schools in their communities, it would cut down on the amount of time we spend on buses, the amount of time we spend on roads.

Sue Grant

well as the city to solve problems – particularly when it comes to capital projects and green space.

“Right now the public board has their bucket, the Catholic board has their bucket and the city has there’s, but if we all put our buckets together we’d do a lot better,” she said.

Grant’s top capital priority is a new public high school in Stittsville.

“You have all those kids beings bussed into Richmond, and the bigger issue to me is what that does to the families in all the neighbouring communities,” said Grant.

She said that since students from Manotick, Stittsville and Richmond all go to school together, getting to social activities requires much more driving.

“If we could get kids in schools in their communities, it would cut down on the amount of time we spend on buses, the amount of time we spend on roads. So I’m very much for schools in the communities.”

Andrea Ingham

Andrea Ingham, a 29-yearold aspiring teacher and journalist, wants to improve the educational system for her future children, starting at the local level.

“When I was growing up there was so much stuff I felt like needed to be changed throughout North America, but a lot of the stuff that needs to be changed throughout the

education system needs to be changed at the local level,” Ingham said.

She is concerned about the long wait for a high school in Stittsville and declining enrollment at Munster Elementary School.

Finding a way to provide co-operative education students with payment for their on-the-job training is another interest of Ingham’s.

With a changing digital world, Ingham said “redundancies” in the educational system need to be addressed.

She wonders if much of the current curriculum has become “obsolete” because the answers are quickly obtained from the internet on students’ cell phones.

A former bachelor of science in biology student, Ingham believes schools need to do a better job of teaching pupils about the “fundamentals of life” from a scientific perspective. That would give young people better tools to approach sustainable self sustenance, she said.

Ingham said she failed out of the biology program at McGill University after sustaining multiple head injuries. She competed at the national level in ski racing, halfpipe snowboarding, rowing and other sports and she also worked as a ski and snowboard coach.

She said she is a frequent commentator on sports radio, as well as a vocal supporter of Do It For Daron, a local youth mental health and suicide awareness campaign.

She has experience as a camp counsellor and outdoor educator and one of her platform ideas is to look at how local schools can better use public outdoor education facilities.

Ingham obtained a certificate in magazine publishing and audio-video production and worked for the Olympic Broadcasting Service.

Todd Johnson

Manotick resident Todd Johnson ran unsuccessfully in 2010, but registered again this year because he said he has the skills to develop educational policy for the digital age.

See STITTSVILLE, page 5

Our stories. Our Museums.

Continued from page 4

“I’ve worked in educational policy for the past 10 years,” he said. “I breathe and sleep educational policy every day, so I have transferable skills.”

Johnson works for Human Resources and Skills Development Canada to develop a vocational rehab program to help adults with disabilities back into the workforce. Before that, he worked with the Canada Student Loans program.

He said the public school board needs to focus on giving students the skills they need to thrive in a knowledge-based economy.

“I think we need co-operative skills for the digital age,” Johnson said.

“You’ve got to get the teachers the digital skills so

life for the students who have to commute.

“My daughter is the second pick-up on the bus route and she often spends over an hour a day going there and coming back. The kids in Stittsville are doing the same thing,” Johnson said. “It’s ridiculous that they’re wasting so much time. It would be nice to have a neighbourhood school; it would be awesome to be able to walk to school.”

Johnson said he has the networking skills to bring that to fruition.

“Honey works better than vinegar. The whole politics thing is making friends and I think I can build relationships,” he said.

Election day is Monday, Oct. 27.

they can teach the students the digital skills.”

Part of that strategy is making learning fun, he said, so that students will be motivated to pursue post-secondary education – be that university, college or an apprenticeship.

Johnson decided to run for trustee in 2010 when his family struggled to find accommodations for his gifted son.

“We went to Lynn Scott and found her more of a hindrance than a help,” he said.

“I’m trying to do what’s best for my kids, and they’re not alone. There are a lot of kids that are on the margins.

All of these kids are probably not getting the services they need.”

On the capital side, Johnson also wants to build a high school to Stittsville, if only to promote a better quality of

Farm Boy celebrates the tastes of our community at Local Food Fair October 28

By David Johnston metroland media

From its inception as a tiny fresh produce store in Cornwall, Farm Boy has always supported local producers. Now a growing chain of quality food markets, the commitment to local food vendors still fills their shelves.

In Ottawa, the relationship with local food suppliers is a tasteful blend of everything from soup to nuts, almost literally. “We feature more than 40 local products in our stores,” says Carolyn Trudel, Farm Boy’s Director of Marketing. “Small producers are unique and know that quality is what will make their product stand out.

It’s a great relationship that our customers appreciate.”

To celebrate the vast array of local foods, the Farm Boy Train Yards location at 665 Industrial Ave. is hosting a Local Food Fair Tuesday October 28, from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. The community is welcome to stop by to meet the makers and enjoy some tasty samples.

“Our stores are brim-

ming with unique and tasty locally-made products and we’re always on the lookout for more, says Carolyn.” “We encourage local producers to stop by the fair and meet with our buyers.” All products are welcome – produce, grocery, meat, seafood, dairy, deli, cheese, floral and bakery products. Local producers should email the company in advance to book an appointment at fbmail@farmboy.ca It’s the kind of event that can make all the difference for a small business trying to get established.

That’s what happened with Amanda Lunan, founder and president of Aunti Loo’s Treats Inc. A dedicated vegan for more than a decade, Amanda created a bakery reminiscent of her childhood, baking with her Nana, when food was delicious and comforting. It was from this desire, armed with her Nana’s recipes that Auntie Loo’s was born.

“Farm Boy took a big chance with a beloved but small scale local brand.

Thanks to Farm Boy we were able to expand our business and double our workforce, employing more local people. We are forever grateful for the opportunity,” says Amanda Lunan.

Auntie Loo’s Treats is Ottawa’s first 100% vegan bakery. They don’t use eggs, dairy, or other animal-

derived product in any of their delicious delights.

“Our treats are made using small scale batches, and are always from scratch. We use organic and local products whenever we can, and we believe in desserts that are fresh, not frozen. We are able to accommodate most allergies. Many of our treats can be made gluten-

free!”

Kimmi Uriu, creator of Kimicha Tea, has a similar passion about her product.

“I want to create a brand that is recognized in Canada,” she says. “I want people to know the difference between a good tea and the kind that is mass produced. I want to help with educating people to make the best cup of tea.”

Her dedication has paid off with a recent victory in the Black Tea category of an international taste competition.

“I am very proud that my small company could win,” she admits.

“Tea is my life. It started from my own travels when people would like the tea I brought home. It gradually grew into a business. I enjoy it a lot and I love the culture behind tea drinking. Travelling to find tea really helps to get to know the culture” “Farm Boy has been a really good match for us from the beginning,” points out Kimmi.

“They care about quality and put a big focus on small suppliers. They care where our tea comes from and have helped us a lot. They now carry eight varieties of Kimicha Organic Tea under the Farm Boy label. The reaction has been very positive. People are very excited when we do demos.

For Natural Kitchen Wizard Korey Kealey, developing the enerjive™ SKINNY cracker was all about healthy, tasty snacking. Korey’s intolerance to gluten led her to quinoa —

gluten free, high in protein, promoting energy and a healthy metabolism, quinoa was the magic ingredient she needed — but she couldn’t find products with it that also tasted good.

“So many people would benefit from this product,” she mused, “but it needs to taste good.” And with that thought as her guide, the snacker/dunker was born!

Korey created an array of yummy quinoa SKINNY Cracker flavours to satisfy her every whim throughout the day. Since then, enerjive has landed in quality food retailers like Farm Bay across Canada.

“We are a company that believes food should taste good and be good for you!” says Korey. “Enerjive has been working with Farm Boy for over four years.

In fact, we will have our three-year on the shelf anniversary on December 8, 2014 but leading up to having the Quinoa Crackers on the shelf, the Farm Boy marketing and buying team coached enerjive until the product was shelf and consumer ready! It has been a fabulous, interactive and very supportive relationship.”

“Farm Boy is one of our key accounts and having enerjive widely available across Eastern Ontario and now in Southern Ontario allows us to drive consumers to stores that most everyone can get to and love the experience!”

“Farm Boy always offers unique, innovative and specialty products. Educated consumers who want the best for their families at great prices shop at Farm Boy. We are very proud to be one of their main offerings in the gluten free section and now even in Deli

Korey Kealey, Enerjive: 613-798-3962 www.enerjive.com sometimes! The crackers are delicious with cheese and dips so being in Deli is a super spot for enerjive too. As a local vendor, this is the type of support we can count on from Farm Boy,” Korey adds. “Every part of the Farm Boy team is welcoming and supportive right from Shipping and Receiving to Home Office and in between...we really learned the grocery industry with our hands held by Farm Boy.” Another local business that is thriving at Farm Boy is H & A All-Natural Nut Bars. Made of entirely natural ingredients with no added chemicals or sugar, the sweetness comes from pure honey and fresh nuts.

It’s the kind of flavour that blends well with Farm Boy’s commitment to natural goodness.

Hanna’s Bakery, makers of Perfect Pita, is another small, local company with a big future. Owner Charbel Azzi is proud that his product is popular at Farm Boy and across the region.

Mayoral race comes down to two Laura Mueller

laura.mueller@metroland.com

Maguire said he’d slow down on acquiring new municipal debt and take a more austere approach to spending taxpayers’ dollars.

He has spent the campaign trying to set himself in contrast to Watson: he is a business executive, while Watson is a career politician.

Maguire said he’d slow down on acquiring new municipal debt and take a more austere approach to spending taxpayers’ dollars, although he is interested in boosting garbage pickup by returning to weekly service (a trash incinerator is his long-term solution).

Watson has campaigned on his record: finally getting light rail started, keeping tax increases within the rate of inflation and freezing recreational fees.

But perhaps Watson’s biggest achievements at city hall have been less tangible:

improving decorum around the council horseshoe and increasing transparency and accountability through a series of new policies.

Another candidate, Anwar Syed, has also shown up to debates, but appears to be taking his candidacy less seriously.

He sent an email to a number of council candidates whose platforms he agrees with asking them to carry a message to vote for him or Maguire for mayor.

Syed has said light rail needs to reach further to the ‘burbs – Kanata, Barrhaven and Orléans – earlier than Watson’s plan, and at a lower cost – but has offered few details.

He also wants to develop alternative routes to the city’s 400-series highways and build overpasses and underpasses to eliminate roadways crossing rail tracks.

Another mayoral candidate, Darren Wood, has been less visible but was the only other candidate to respond to an email request for a synopsis of his candidacy.

He said his platform is about change, common sense and transparency.

“A vote for me means a return to weekly garbage pickup, the end of the Orgaworld contract and an end to our debt,” Wood wrote in an email.

Other candidates registered to run for mayor are: Bernard Couchman, Rebecca Pyrah, Michael St. Arnaud and Robert White.

In the end, it will come down to two: Maguire and Watson.

While Maguire’s message might have more pull for conservative voters and those in rural wards like Osgoode, Rideau-Goulbourn and West CarletonMarch, which went to Larry O’Brien in the last election, Maguire is running a tough race against a strong incumbent on Oct. 27.

News - Despite attempts to fire up the electorate over issues such as light rail and garbage pickup, the mayoral race may be one of the sleepiest Ottawa has seen in years.

In contrast to the 2010 election, which saw Jim Watson beat out embattled incumbent Larry O’Brien, former regional chairman Andy Haydon and former Capital Coun. Clive Doucet, the 2014 campaign has been mostly a two-horse race.

The only candidate out of eight mayoral contenders to launch a serious campaign has been Mike Maguire, making his second bid for the mayor’s chair – he placed with 2.4 per cent of the vote in 2010.

Unlike last time, there are both fewer incendiary issues and fewer personalities in the race leading up to the Oct. 27 vote.

With the first phase of the city’s light-rail transit plan underway and the second phase enshrined in the city’s transportation master plan, adopted last year, transit – while still an important issue for many voters in urban areas – isn’t the makeor-break issue for a mayoral candidate that it was in the past two elections.

For the record, Watson wants to stay the course on the light-rail plan that he’s been the architect of over the past four years.

It would extend LRT west to Bayshore Station, south to Bowesville and east to

Place D’Orléans by 2023 at a cost of $2.5 billion.

Maguire would start over and use existing rail lines throughout the city to run a lower-frequency commuter service, at a cost of around $355 million.

Connected to your community

EDITORIAL

Let’s not lose the experience

T

he people of Ottawa will choose a mayor, councillors and school trustees next week.

Most voters will have plenty of names to choose from. And that’s a good thing.

Municipal politics is a unique opportunity to directly affect government. There are no parties or masses of representatives to cajole. Everyone is on a first name basis.

Many people have stepped up and sought your vote. Most will not come out on top.

But by broaching ideas across the spectrum, they have prompted discussion. The status quo – served up in four-year terms – deserves to be shaken up, whether or not every platform plank is sound from your point of view.

Those people who do not win their battles should remember they are valued, and they should stay connected to city hall.

From the candidates who miss election by a vote or two to those who seem to only get votes from family and friends, all should consider the

next four years a chance to seek change. Attending meetings, writing letters, having conversations in the community and in the hallways at 110 Laurier Ave. West: all those activities keep the election winners on their toes, and force them to adapt to what their electorate really wants to see them accomplish.

Campaign experience engaging with the community can be transferred to working with community associations, volunteer organizations, support groups, appearing as committee delegations, and working with community health centres. Our basic social systems can only benefit from a wide range of input, especially from the kind of knowledge the most engaged participants can offer.

Those elected should do all they can to engage and encourage input from those who did not win.

The city could also take the opportunity to expand on public education about how city government works – such as the explanation of development regulations – that could better educate future generations of city councillors.

It’s not what we want, but what we’ve lost

W

ith less than a week to go until the municipal election, it is a bit difficult to know what it is all about here.

In other places, the issues are easier to define. In Toronto, for example, the issue is still Rob Ford, even though he is not running for mayor.

Here, what is it? Rapid transit?

What we have now seems like a done deal. Taxes? C’mon. Green bins may be the closest thing to a real issue, which shows, among other things, that Ottawa’s problems are far from serious.

The green bin issue, in fact, may not be about garbage pickup at all. Rather, the green bin may be a symbol of all the services we used to

enjoy and no longer do.

The milkman and the bread man used to come to our grandparents’ door. The letter carrier used to come twice a day, with letters mailed sometimes the same day. Passenger trains stopped at almost every town.

And airplanes — well, what could be a better symbol of services lost than the modern airline? You used to get a meal with every flight, or at least a substantial snack on the shorter ones. For a time, even the

technologically advanced than ever before? If so, how come we have less of what we used to have?

That’s the emotional context of the green bin debate. We used to have garbage pickup every week. Now it is every two weeks. Abolish the green bin, say some, and return to weekly garbage pickup.

You can understand the nostalgic appeal of this, despite the fact that the green bin seems to be working fine for many people, although some people complain about animals eating holes in it. Sure the garbage cans don’t go every week, but the green bins do and that’s where the smelly stuff is. Plus, it gets recycled. Some ardent environmentalists are claiming that the green bin system, along with blue and black bins, enables them to put out virtually no garbage at all.

plastic wrap being about all that remains after the black, blue and green bins have been filled.

But it is easy to understand to the call for a return to weekly garbage pickup, in a society in which so much else has been taken away.

Greely Players celebrate 25 years with logo contest Emma Jackson

emma.jackson@metroland.com

Community - Artists, graphic designers and musical theatre lovers can make their mark on theatre this fall as the Greely Players open their doors to new logo submissions.

The musical theatre troupe is celebrating its 25th anniversary with a bit of rebranding, and artists have until Oct. 31 to submit their designs.

The winning entry will be announced at the group’s annual Christmas concert on Nov. 28, and the artist will take home a $250 prize.

Past president Anne Peterson said the group wanted to get the community involved in the rebranding initiative, instead of just hiring a graphic designer.

“We are a community theatre company, and I guess this is just all part of the kind of outreach we like do to,” she

said.

The artists have been given a blank slate to work with. While the Players have used several versions of the comedy and tragedy masks over the years, Peterson said submissions are in no way limited to that motif.

“That reflects theatre, but it doesn’t reflect musical theatre, which is what we’re really all about,” Peterson said.

“We are leaving it wide open to the imagination of the people who are willing to submit an entry.”

Peterson said the executive would like to see submissions from young people, not just those who have been trained in graphic design.

That said, there are technical requirements every entry must meet in order to be considered.

The logo must be a digital design that can be enlarged without loss of clarity, with high enough resolution to be

used for posters and letterhead.

For example, the image should be able to be printed up to six inches wide at 300dpi.

The logo must also be submitted in colour and greyscale, and must incorporate the words “The Greely Players” in the design.

Peterson said any and all colour schemes are welcomed; while the group’s website has a green theme at the moment, she expects it will undergo a redesign once the executive has chosen a new logo.

Submissions should be sent to Peterson at antopeterson@ hotmail.com by Oct. 31 and should include the artist’s name, address, phone number and email address.

All entries will be displayed at Parkway Road Pentecostal Church Nov. 28 and 29 during the Greely Players’ Christmas concerts, which start at 7 p.m.

Osgoode candidates propose rural hydro fixes Laura Mueller

laura.mueller@metroland.com

News - Osgoode candidates are taking up the issue of moving rural Ottawa residents from Hydro One to Ottawa Hydro service.

Around 42,000 residents in the city’s outskirts still pay approximately 30 per cent more per kilowatt hour

(including fees) for electricity from Hydro One. The issue has been percolating for at least a dozen years.

It’s something politicians expected to happen as a result of amalgamation. But the transfer has never happened because the price Hydro One is asking for has been deemed unreasonable.

OVER

Mark Scharfe says if he’s elected, he’d work to create a new elected position to oversee Hydro Ottawa.

The directly elected hydro commissioner, who voters would cast ballots for, would be charged with working to move around 42,000 customers who get service from Hydro One onto Ottawa Hydro service.

“If they will not give the customers from Hydro One to Hydro Ottawa, then it will have to be forced politically,” Scharfe said. “This is not unprecedented – we had one in Gloucester before amalgamation.”

Scharfe didn’t elaborate on how an elected commissioner would have more success claiming those customers than Hydro Ottawa’s current board, which includes three elected city council members.

“His first responsibility would be to use politically whatever endeavours he has at his disposal to draw those customers in,” Scharfe said of his proposed commis-

sioner. “That will be up to him.”

Another Osgoode candidate, Davis Jermacans, had a different idea. In a press release, Jermacans said the change needs to begin with city councillors, specifically the representatives from rural wards affected by the discrepancy.

Councillors need to meet with the hydro authorities and draw up a “financially feasible agreement” for the transfer.

The immediate cost of labour and infrastructure changes could be paid for with Ottawa Hydro’s annual dividends.

The cost of the actual

purchase of those customers would have to be paid down over time with new profits generated by the new rural customers.

“It is important that the existing dividends get back into the City’s revenue stream as quickly as possible,” Jermacans said in the press release. “It is also reasonable to have the newly acquired infrastructure pay for itself over a number of years.

“Ultimately, once the infrastructure is paid for, the entire City will benefit from increased dividends from Hydro Ottawa.”

The municipal election is Monday, Oct. 27.

Royal Ottawa plans reunion of tuberculosis patients Manotick News Staff

News - From the time the Lady Grey Hospital opened in 1910 until the last TB ward closed in 1970, more than 11,000 TB patients were admitted to the hospital, also known as the Royal Ottawa Sanatorium.

Anne Raina, the co-author of Clara’s Rib has a lot of memories of the San. As the youngest of ten children, she watched her father and seven of her siblings contract tuberculosis and spend many years in the San. She hopes to bring other families connected to the San together again with a reunion on Nov. 1 at the Royal Ottawa Mental Health Centre from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m.

VOTE

Raina’s father died when she was eight years old; her eldest brother, John, died at 18 and her youngest brother, Billy, died at age four of TB meningitis.

Her sister, Clara, with whom Clara’s Rib is co-authored, entered the San in 1939 when she was twelve years old and was discharged for the final time in 1952 when she had just turned twentysix.

“Since I published Clara’s Rib, dozens of people who spent time in the San with Clara or other of my family members have contacted me,” Raina said.

“Each of them has such rich stories of their own experiences with TB and the San to share. Many of them expressed the feeling there was nobody

with whom they could discuss their San experiences – that no one understands what it was like. The idea of holding a reunion materialized from these conversations.”

That idea was shared with Debbie Smith of the Canadian Lung Association (formerly the Anti-Tuberculosis Association) and Linette McElroy, a TB nurse educator and a member of Stop TB Canada, an advocacy group working to support Canada’s efforts towards eliminating TB internationally.

Soon, Debbie, Linette and Anne were enthusiastically organizing a reunion.

They are grateful for the support of the Canadian Lung Association and Stop TB Canada in this initiative, and

they are really pleased that the Royal Ottawa Mental Health Centre is providing the use of their facilities for the reunion.

This location will be familiar to everyone who was in the San since there is a long shared history between the two hospitals.

With the introduction of drug therapy for TB in the 1950s and ‘60s, the need for beds for TB patients started to decline. Some of those vacant beds were then designated for mental health.

The last TB ward closed in 1970.

Over time the hospital became the Royal Ottawa Mental Health Centre, with the original buildings eventually being torn down and replaced with the current ones.

As well as reuniting former patients, their family members, former staff and their family members, the reunion has other goals. It is important that the stories of former TB patients do not disappear. They provide a vital piece of the history of TB. The hope of the organizers is that the reunion will provide an opportunity to gather San experiences to be recorded and collated.

Apple and cheese French toast a new take on old standard

Ingredients

• 8 slices day old sourdough, French or Italian bread • 8 slices medium cheddar cheese • 2 McIntosh or empire apples, thinly sliced • 3 eggs • 175 ml (3/4 cup) milk • 25 ml (2 tbsp) granulated sugar • 2 ml (1/2 tsp) vanilla

• 25 ml (2 tbsp) butter • maple syrup Preparation

Place four slices of the bread on a work surface and top each with one slice of cheese. Place an even layer of apples on the cheese, then top each with a second cheese slice. Cover each with the remaining slices of bread to make four sandwiches.

In a medium bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, sugar and vanilla until smooth. Pour the mixture into a shallow dish large enough to hold one sandwich.

In a large nonstick skillet,

melt the butter over medium heat.

Dip the first sandwich into the egg mixture, turning to soak (don’t over soak). Repeat with a second sandwich and add both sandwiches to the skillet and cook until golden brown on both sides -- two to three minutes per side. Repeat the process with the other two sandwiches. Cut all the cooked sandwiches in half and serve with maple syrup.

Tip: One or two day-old stale bread is ideal for French toast as fresh bread absorbs too much liquid, making it soggy.

News - While there are no direct flights into Canada from Ebola-affected West African nations, passengers arriving at six Canadian airports, including the Ottawa MacdonaldCartier International Airport, are now being screened for signs of the potentially deadly viral infection.

Federal Health Minister Rona Ambrose announced Oct. 8 that “targeted temperature screening” at Canadian borders would be conducted.

“All individuals arriving in Canada from Ebola-affected countries will have their temperature taken by a quarantine officer,” a Public Health Agency of Canada spokesperson said in an email.

Ehanced screening will be implemented for travellers arriving from Guinea, Sierra Leone and Liberia, which are at the centre of the current Ebola outbreak.

“All travelers from Ebola-affected countries will undergo a mandatory health assessment and be asked a series of health-related and exposure questions,” the agency official said.

Ambrose’s statement came the same day the United States announced it would implement enhanced airport screening measures for Ebola and that extra personnel would be put in place at five American airports, including JFK International Airport in New York City.

JFK airport receives more than 94 percent of travellers from Guinea, Liberia, and Sierra Leone. Screening will also be conducted at Washington-Dulles, Newark, Chicago-O’Hare and Atlanta airports.

The U.S. plans were revealed the same day a Liberian man died from Ebola in a Texas hospital.

In Canada, quarantine officers are now present at six airports, including Ottawa, Montreal, Toronto, Halifax, Calgary and Vancouver, which receive the most international travellers.

Quarantine officers will also be available to respond remotely around

the clock in support of Canada border officers who are stationed at all Canadian air, land and sea entry points.

Travellers coming into Canada from affected West African nations will be identified and asked about their health, in keeping with Canada’s Quarantine Act, Dr. Gregory Taylor, Canada’s chief public health officer, said in an Oct. 8 statement.

“If these travellers are ill or identify as having been in contact with an ill person, they will be referred to a Public Health Agency of Canada quarantine officer,” he said. “Quarantine officers have the necessary training and equipment, including temperature-monitoring devices, to conduct a health assessment and determine whether additional health measures are required.”

Those travellers to Canada who say they are sick or have been exposed will have their temperature checked.

One of the symptoms of Ebola is the quick onset of a high temperature of at least 38C. “There has never been a case of Ebola in Canada, and the risk to Canadians remains very low,” Taylor said.

“I want to reassure Canadians that the risk of Ebola has not changed and remains very low, and we will consider any additional measures needed to protect Canadians.”

Public health officials say the virus does not spread easily from person to person, and can only be caught through direct contact with infected bodily fluids.

Ebola symptoms

• Ebola symptoms can begin two to 21 days after exposure.

• Initial symptoms include high temperature, sore throat, fever, chills, headache, muscle pain and weakness.

• Additional symptoms include rash, nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, and late-stage symptoms include hemorrhaging from inside and outside the body, which can lead to death.

Discovery boxes bring World War I to students Erin McCracken

erin.mccracken@metroland.com

Erin McCracken/Metroland

Grade 10 Brookfield High School students Adnan Memic, left, and Amnar Abozkar dress up in First World War clothing and equipment during the Canadian War Museum’s launch of its discovery box program for Canadian students on Oct. 9.

News - After trying on a heavy metal helmet that would have been worn a century ago by a soldier just a few years older than him, Amnar Abozkar said he can’t imagine what it was like to wear the helmet in the First World War trenches.

“I’d get headaches, migraines all day,” the Grade 10 Brookfield High School student said of the heavy object, which

slipped slightly when he tried it on.

The experience of trying on the war artifact allowed Abozkar to imagine himself in the boots of a Canadian soldier 100 years ago.

He was among 24 students who passed around shell casings, a nurse’s apron, soldier’s jacket and cap, a gas mask, gas alarm rattle and trench periscope, but not before trying them out or trying them on.

The authentic and replica

First World War objects are among 22 items included in 25 discovery boxes the Canadian War Museum is making available for the first time to students in grades four to 12 across Canada.

The Supply Line kits officially launched at Brookfield High School on Thursday, Oct. 9, but schools have been reserving the boxes since Sept. 16.

They are loaned out for free for two weeks and are already fully booked into December.

“In a museum all of our objects are behind glass windows so we want you to be able to handle these things, try them on, touch them and that’s the idea,” museum learning specialist Sandra O’Quinn said.

Just before handing out the treasures, she encouraged the teens to ask questions and make observations in order to teach them to think like a historian.

In addition to the artifacts, the boxes come with learning materials and lesson plans.

Redblacks remove buses to ensure Halloween safety Michelle Nash michelle.nash@metroland.com

News - The Ottawa Sports and Entertainment Group will be playing it safe this Halloween.

With a RedBlacks game on the schedule for Oct. 31, the organization has made some minor changes to its shuttle bus routes that evening.

To address initial parking and traffic concerns prior to opening up TD Place Stadium in July, OSEG implemented a parkand-ride plan which included having 80 to 90 shuttles, more than 50 buses at the ready, secure bike parking, free OC Transpo rides with proof of ticket and policing services, costing the organization an estimated $800,000.

The plan has proved successful, with more than 65 per cent of ticket holders taking OC Transpo, cycling, walking or parking in one of the three designated park and ride locations and jumping on a shuttle.

Yet concerns have been raised by Lakeside Drive residents about the number of shuttles using their street, and as a result, OSEG reduced the number using that route by nearly 70 per cent.

The changes for Halloween night will see no shuttles operating on Lakeside Drive.

“Safety is a top priority for OSEG and its partners,” said spokesman Barre Campbell in an email. “We will be working with our bus operators to remind drivers to be mindful of

pedestrian activity on Halloween night, and every night shuttles are in operation.”

Those Lakeside Drive shuttles typically bring ticket holders from a Carleton University parking lot to Lansdowne on game nights.

For the Halloween game, the remaining shuttles still using Lakeside will be detoured to Bronson Avenue, Carling Avenue, Preston Street, and Queen Elizabeth Driveway.

All the other buses that provide service from Canada Post and the RA Centre currently take Heron Road to Prince of Wales Drive to Queen Elizabeth Driveway. This route will remain the same on Oct. 31.

File

The Ottawa RedBlacks will take on the Hamilton Tiger-Cats on Halloween night. To ensure trick-or-treating children’s safety, the Ottawa Sports and Entertainment Group has rerouted shuttle buses which normally take Lakeside Drive for the evening.

Algonquin students campaign against child abuse throughout October Ottawa’s #1 Ranked Soccer Club

Anthony Duffy

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.

At Algonquin College, students can get more information at booths the child and youth worker students

ottawa

have set up.

In addition to providing information, visitors can donate money towards the cause and get a purple ribbon to support the cause. Pitman will have a display on Oct. 23 from 2 to 4 p.m.

For more information on the Ontario Association of Children’s Aid Societies visit useyourvoice.ca. If someone suspects child abuse, they should call the Children’s Aid Society of Ottawa at 613-747-7800. If it appears to be an urgent matter, police should be contacted.

Carbon monoxide detectors made mandatory in Ontario Steph Willems

steph.willems@metroland.com

News - If they don’t already, homeowners will now have two safety alarms to check each year.

Effective Oct. 15, the Ontario government has made functioning carbon monoxide detectors mandatory for all homes and multi-unit residential buildings. The regulation is an update of the province’s fire code, and is based on recommendations

from an advisory committee led by the Office of the Fire Marshall and Emergency Management.

Representatives from the province’s fire services, hotel and rental housing industries, condo owners and alarm manufacturers had input in the recommendations.

“We want Ontarians to be aware of the dangers of carbon monoxide poisoning because these tragedies are preventable,” stated Yasir Naqvi, minister of community safety and

correctional services, in a media release.

“The change to the Fire Code is all about making sure we keep our families and homes safe. I urge all Ontarians to install a carbon monoxide alarm in their homes immediately.”

The detectors should be placed near sleeping areas in homes, and in the service rooms and sleeping areas in apartment buildings.

Bill 77, an Act to Proclaim Carbon Monoxide Awareness Week and

to amend the Fire Protection and Prevention Act, was passed in Ontario legislature in December 2013.

A major proponent of the legislation was John Gignac, co-chairman of the Hawkins-Gignac Foundation for (Carbon Monoxide) Education.

Gignac, a long-time Ontario firefighter, campaigned for changes to the Fire Code following the carbon monoxide deaths of his niece, Laurie Hawkins, and her family in December 2008. A blocked chimney flue

was blamed for the deaths. In their memory, Gignac formed a charitable foundation that campaigned for carbon monoxide awareness and distributed detectors to at-risk familes.

In a released statement, Gignac urged Ontarians and all Canadians to install alarm “so we can combat the silent killer.”

Resulting from Bill 77, the province’s first Carbon Monoxide Awareness Week will take place Nov. 1 to 8.

Race day inspires kids to ‘think locally, act globally’: organizer Erin McCracken

erin.mccracken@metroland.com

News - When Karen Hill sees children and teenagers decked out in their race T-shirts tears well up in her eyes.

Many have been saving their birthday money or have set up lemonade stands throughout the year to support South Ottawa Race Day, which Hill and her event co-organizer Karen Sinclair launched in 2012 after they lost a close friend to glioblastoma melanoma or GBM, a fast-acting brain tumour.

“It’s become something that the kids feel is their own in their community,” Hill said of the support the event has received from generations of people in Riverside South and beyond, particularly among high school students.

“It’s obviously about brain cancer but for our kids it’s more about getting involved in helping those who are less fortunate than us, promoting in our community that ‘thinking locally, acting globally’

kind of idea,” Hill said.

“We love, love, love the fact that we have so many young people participating in the event. I think it’s part of what sets us apart from other events in that we really gear ourselves to the younger population. We want them to feel that this is their event.”

The organizing committee is prepping for the third-annual race day on Sunday, Oct. 26 at the Rideau Carleton Raceway.

About 1,300 participants have signed up for one- and two-kilometre family run/ walks, the five- and 10-kilometre runs and a half-marathon.

The inaugural event drew 1,000 people and last year just under that number took part. This year, the event has attracted runners from Orleans to Kanata and beyond the National Capital Region to Kingston and Toronto.

It’s still too soon to know just how much money the event will generate this year, said Hill.

“A lot of fundraising hap-

Since its inception, South Ottawa Race Day has generated $170,000 to support GBM research.

“It’s a lot of money,” said Hill. “I’m pretty blown away by it actually. It’s hard to even fathom that that money

came in – just the generosity.

“What it makes me realize is that we really did find a cause that people care about and want to put their support behind.”

Glioblastoma melanoma is considered a low-profile cancer, and part of the challenge for researchers is that

it grows quickly and steals lives just as fast.

“We don’t hear about it as much and so this (event) has provided an (opportunity) that allows those people to support a particular type of cancer that has affected them personally,” said Hill.

During South Ottawa Race Day, the Ottawa Regional Cancer Foundation will be teaming up with Tiny Hoppers daycare to put on a children’s activity section, where there will be games, face painting and relay races.

Runners will go through a group warm-up and then head off on their routes. And while top finishers of each race will receive prizes ranging from RedBlacks football tickets to a three-month boot camp, among others, everyone will receive a medal and a T-shirt.

Three years ago, organizers had no idea how successful the event would become, helping bring people together in support of a worthy cause, said Hill.

Emails come in on a dai-

ly basis from people who share their experiences about GBM. “Just the personal stories make you feel like ‘OK, this is something that’s going to continue to grow,” said Hill.

“We really kind of found our followers and feel that we owe it to them to keep this event going so that they have a place to feel like they’re supporting the people they know who’ve been affected.”

Hill and Sinclair’s friend Heather Geddie and others close to the event organizers who have lost their lives to glioblastoma melanoma are never far from their thoughts.

“No matter how stressful or complicated (the race day) gets we always think of them,” said Hill. “They are definitely our inspiration.”

South Ottawa Race Day takes place Oct. 26. Registration closes Oct. 22.

Family recipes help music cookbook sing Music program alumni support concert band fundraiser

program.

The 150-page cookbook, called A Taste of Music, includes more than 250 family recipes collected from students, staff, and alumni.

Several past music teachers and directors also contributed, including Reg Lavergne, Pierre Lalonde, Pete Massie and Wes Friedrich.

Dotted throughout the book are photos from the school’s concert and jazz bands and artwork from music students.

Many recipes include a personal anecdote.

called his infamous pep talk, which was taped to his stand during concerts so audience members couldn’t see that it read, “don’t screw it up!”

Other recipes note how it came to be in the family’s hands, or a warning to always double to recipe to ward off rapid disappearance at family gatherings.

Committee member Tyler Korteweg, a Grade 11 student and flutist, submitted more than 30 recipes – many of them for the slow cooker.

Cookbook committee lead Dorothy Svendson, who has been part of the Band Boosters committee for eight years, said the cookbook is as much a souvenir as it is a resource.

“Everybody sells cookie dough and everybody sells chocolate bars, but I was trying to think of something that would involve the students more,” Svendsen said.

At $15 each, the committee hopes the cookbooks will raise $5,000 for the music department.

That money will be used to replace aging instruments and purchase mouthpieces for the influx of new music students.

Cookbook committee members are hoping to sell 500 cookbooks full of family recipes to support the Osgoode Township High School music program. Back row from left: Tyler Korteweg, Patricia Schulz, Matthew Silas and Brianna Charbonneau. Front row from left: Adriana Raats and Lindsey Schulz.

“The music department is one department at the school that’s really growing,” Svendsen said. “(Music director Craig Sheridan) needs to have instruments to provide to students, and the ones he has are really on their last

legs.”

Sheridan said he also hopes to take students on a humanitarian trip to Cuba either next spring or the following year.

Students would bring instruments with them and perform, but leave the in-

struments behind so their Cuban counterparts can also take part in a concert band.

Cookbooks can be purchased through any OTHS band member or by emailing paul.svendsen@sympatico. ca.

Doll show coming to Ernst & Young Centre Erin McCracken

erin.mccracken@metroland.com

News - Valerie Hennigar and Anne Taller both pause then chuckle when asked how many dolls they each have in their collections.

Hennigar, a Barrhaven resident, has collected between 300 and 400 over the past 40 years.

Taller, a Kanata resident who has been collecting mostly antique dolls for about 35 years, has about 300.

“Quantity doesn’t matter, quality matters,” said Taller. “The thing that matters most is what appeals to you. If you buy what appeals to you, you’ll never make a mistake.”

While the advent of e-commerce in the 1990s has connected more sellers and doll collectors and enthusiasts, buyers still relish opportunities to view and compare dolls before they make

a purchase.

That is one of the reasons Taller and Hennigar are organizing their fourth Ottawa Doll Show and Sale at the Ernst & Young Centre on Oct. 25, from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m., which will feature about 40 vendors and their wares.

“The wonderful thing about a doll show is you get to examine the item, the doll. You get to have a conversation with a vendor,” said Taller. “On the Internet, I have so often seen that somebody says this is a Mary Todd Lincoln china doll with an original body or original clothes or whatever.

I can tell from the picture that’s not so.”

Sellers can be misinformed about the dolls in their possession.

And given the expense of some dolls, particularly antiques or those in mint condition and in their original garments, collectors want to be sure of what they are

buying.

“It can be expensive. It can also be done for very little,” Taller said. “I have heard stories of people going to an auction and sitting beside somebody who said, ‘I brought $140,000 and there’s nothing to spend it on,’’ she said.

“And yet I have bought dolls for 25 cents.”

Among doll collectors it is poor etiquette to ask the price a buyer paid.

“It’s not about the cost of the item. It’s about the provenance and where it came from and who owned it, perhaps, or where it was made. Is it rare?” Hennigar said.

Among the vendors at the upcoming show will be an Almonte-based doll conservator, Lynn Chambers, who specializes in repairing and restoring antique dolls.

Taller has relied on her expertise for years.

“I consider myself a custodian

November is Adoption Awareness Month

of these wonderful objects for the next generation,” said Taller.

Some of the dolls in her collection date back to the late 1700s.

While Taller and Hennigar primarily collect antique dolls, their upcoming show will bring in vendors who will showcase antique to modern dolls made of paper, porcelain and cloth as well as ball-jointed dolls, and those known as reborn dolls that are made to look lifelike – just like real infants.

There will also be toys, teddy bears and miniatures. Trains will be a new feature at the event.

Among those who attend the show and sale will be collectors, doll enthusiasts and those who buy for their children.

“And that’s why we think it’s important at the show to have a really wide variety because your individual tastes, I couldn’t predict what they would be,” said Taller.

The Ottawa Doll Show and Sale takes place at the Ernst & Young Centre, located at 4899 Uplands Dr. Admission to the event is a minimum $2 donation in support of the Ottawa Food Bank.

One special Saturday night reserved for pre-Christmas magic

T

his was to be the night. I was so excited, even my toes tingled.

It was a Saturday, but there would be no Saturday night house party that week. No, this night would be extra special, because Mother, Audrey and I would sit at the kitchen table and go through Eaton’s catalogue, page by page, and pick out our winter order.

Father seemed to take forever at the supper table. He poured his green tea into his saucer, and sat back in his chair waiting for it to cool off.

Why didn’t he take it over to the oven door and sip it there? He’d soon be there anyway, leafing through the Ottawa Farm Journal. But no, he sat there like he had all the time in the world.

I ushered all the dishes to the other end of the old pine table, Audrey brought over the dish pan full of hot water, and it looked very much like we were going to have to work around him.

I let out great sighs, and wiped the red-checked oilcloth within a fraction of his saucer, but that did little to hurry up Father.

Finally, he was finished.

Never have supper dishes been washed, dried and put away in the cupboard so fast.

We wiped the oilcloth dry with a tea towel, Mother took Eaton’s catalogue off the ice box and sat at the head of the table, Audrey and I on either side of her.

At the back of the catalogue was the order form. Mother had already filled in the blanks on where the order was to be sent, and all that was needed was a list of the items we would be choosing.

We would start at the front, as usual, but we had no interest in the corsets, so Mother quickly moved on to dresses, blouses, and skirts.

Even though Audrey looked longingly at the skirts with pleats, she knew better than to ask for one.

Any new skirt would come right out of one of Uncle Jack’s dress suits that came regularly in the hand-medown box from Regina. So Mother moved on to the underwear.

There were the cursed navy blue fleece-lined bloomers. I got a new pair of them every winter, because there wasn’t much left to them by the time winter was over.

She wrote down the number and size, and moved on to the combination underwear.

Audrey had long since grown out of long underwear, but I had a few years to go.

MARY COOK Mary Cook’s Memories And I loved the feel of the soft downy combinations that came with the faintest mauve lines in the material, and I was happy to see that a set had joined the list on the order form.

We worked our way through the catalogue, me “oohing and ahhing” over the bolts of material, the shoes, and of course, the galoshes with the fur trim, just like the ones Marguirite wore to the Northcote School.

My galoshes were hand-medowns from Audrey, simple black rubber ones with clamp hooks down the front.

They wore the look of many years of hard wear, with patches upon

patches Father had put on, much the same way as when he fixed the inner tubes of the Model T Ford.

My three brothers were each to get a new plaid flannelette shirt to wear to school.

They had no choice in the pattern or the colour. Mother just wrote down a number, and that was all there was to it.

And then there were the pages devoted to Christmas. This, without a doubt, was my very favourite part of the catalogue.

There were pages of decorations, packages of tinsel, and Christmas lights for those lucky enough to have

electricity. There would be no entries in the order form from those pages, I knew for a fact.

But Mother knew how much I loved that section, and so she let me run my fingers down the pages, and in my mind’s eye, I would pretend the Christmas balls, the fancy wrapping paper, and rolls of ribbons, which for some reason only came in red, green and navy blue, would be added to the list.

And then closer to the back of the catalogue were pages of Christmas candy. It came in colourful tins and pails, and I was sure I could smell the peppermint and the caramel right off the pictures.

The tins and pails were tilted over, spilling out the candies, and each piece looked like you could pick it right off the page.

Then Mother would ask which pail or tin I thought looked the best, and I would agonize over the pictures, rubbing my finger down the page from the top to the bottom, finally settling on one that had hard candies of every shape and size.

And I would see Mother write the number on the order form in front of her. With that, I would be filled with the utmost joy. Real Christmas candy.

Could there be anything more wonderful?

The City wishes to ensure that anyone with an interest in this Study including the above described slope stabilization projects has the opportunity to provide input. The Environmental Assessment Act has provisions that allow an interested person, aboriginal community or government agency to ask for a higher level of assessment for a class environmental Assessment project if they feel that there are outstanding issues that have not been adequately addressed by the proponent. If concerns regarding the above slope stabilization projects cannot be resolved in discussion with the City of Ottawa, a person/party may request that the Minister of the Environment and Climate Change make an order for the projects to comply with Part II of the Environmental Assessment Act (referred to as a Part II Order). This request must be received by the Minister at the address noted below, prior to Monday, November 24, 2014. A copy of the request should also be sent to the City of Ottawa at the above address. If there are no requests received by Monday, November 24, 2014, the identified slope stabilization projects will proceed with property acquisition as presented in the Subwatershed Management Plan Report.

ACORN promotes “get out and vote” campaign across Ottawa Michelle Nash michelle.nash@metroland.com

News - A group of dedicated Ottawa residents have been knocking on doors to ensure everyone eligible gets out to vote on Oct. 27.

The efforts were instigated by the Vanier chapter of ACORN, when members spent a few Saturdays in September and October knocking on doors to inform residents of the upcoming election, how to vote and where they will need to go to vote.

Vanier ACORN’s chairwoman Ria Rinne said the response was positive, with many residents expressing their desire to have their voices heard.

“A lot of people wanted to know more,” Rinne said.

During the event, the group promoted ACORN

specific events, including a town hall event on Sept. 27 which featured candidates from Rideau-Vanier and Rideau-Rockcliffe, which ended up drawing more than 80 people.

Gisele Bouvier also helped organize the event and said the group was pleased with the responses from residents.

“The knocking was about letting them know how to vote and where and if they weren’t registered to help them find out how,” Bouvier said.

According to Bouvier and Rinne, the organization believes that the number of accessible voting stations remains low in the city, which they said shows in the low voter turnout seen in places like Vanier.

For the door knocking

event, the group focused on the northern side of Montreal Road.

This decision was made based on an ACORN analysis project completed this past April on neighbourhood polling stations locations.

“Really it shows there should be more polling stations,” Bouvier said.

As it stands, Rinne said the number of polling stations remains the same as it did in 2010, but ACORN adds they hope the efforts its members are making will make a difference this year.

“It’s really important to get out and vote,” Rinne said. “You can make such a change.”

Information on how to vote is available at ottawa.ca/en/city-hall/ your-city-government/ 2014-elections.

Notice of Study Completion Riverside South Elevated Water Storage Tank Class Environmental Assessment Report Available for Review The City of Ottawa has completed a Class Environmental Assessment (Class EA) study for the selection of a preferred location for the Riverside South Elevated Water Storage Tank. The tank, which is identified in the City’s Infrastructure Master Plan, is expected to be required to supplement the supply of water under future peak demand conditions.

A suitable property must be identified and reserved for this future purpose. This project has been planned as Schedule ‘B’ projects under the Municipal Class Environmental Assessment document (2007). The purpose of the Class EA study was to confirm project need and justification, document existing environmental conditions, examine alternatives and potential impacts, and recommend the preferred location.

Urban planner presents view that conflicts with official vision during first NCC speaker event Laura Mueller laura.mueller@metroland.com

News - Despite resolutely rejecting the city’s idea of running light rail along the Sir John A. Macdonald Parkway, the National Capital Commission recently hosted an expert speaker who argues for just such a plan.

In the first event of its evening public speakers series on Oct. 16, the NCC

invited Robert Fishman , a professor of architecture and urban planning at the University of Michigan, to speak to the legacy of parkways.

In highlighting the history of how the linear parks punctuated with roadways evolved, Fishman said when it comes to the situation Ottawa is facing, Fishman said he understands the issue is complicated, but he didn’t mince words

Have Your Say – Protecting Energy Consumers

Ontario Energy Commission de l’énergie Board de l’Ontario

How well are consumers protected in Ontario’s retail energy market?

That’s the question the Ontario Energy Board (OEB) is looking at with its review of the Energy Consumer Protection Act. The Act deals with energy retailing to low-volume consumers in the province. Just over 300 thousand residential and small business consumers in Ontario currently have contracts with electricity retailers; 362,000 have contracts with natural gas marketers.

Please visit www.ECPAreview.ca and fill out the on-line survey to share your views on consumer protection with the OEB.

when asked for his outsider perspective.

“I have the relatively easy task of saying that ultimately, I don’t think a parkway system in the future can work without light rail and light rail access,” he said.

The “tough matter,” Fishman said, is deciding where to locate that light rail access.

“Light rail, I think, is a whole lot more flexible than people realize,” he said, describing how rail tracks used to be threaded through neighbourhoods, with no more danger to the public than a roadway. Some of the best old neighbourhoods are former “streetcar suburbs.” That argument picked up on the theme of his talk, which focused on how the flexibility and lack of rigid format for the first parkways developed in the late 1800s could be a lesson for how cities can re-imagine their parkways for the future.

For instance, some of the first parkways designed by Frederick Law Olmstead were meant for horse-drawn buggies and featured a side path for pedestrians, which were eventually converted for use by bicycles and cars after they were invented.

In the same way, including light rail along parkways isn’t uncommon, Fishman said. He pointed to Roland Park, a suburb of Baltimore, where tracks were placed right through the centre of the neighbourhood.

“It ran right through this beautiful parkway that was lined with the most magnificent houses in Baltimore,” he said. “They appreciated that it was running right in front of their front doors.

“I think that the way in which light rail can really coexist with a neighbourhood is one of the many things we’ve forgotten,” Fishman said.

Parkways can’t survive without LRT: expert

PARK VS. ROAD DISCREPENCY

Fishman’s talk highlighted the tension between the intent of a parkway as a park that can bring people closer to nature, versus the

way many parkways have evolved to become de facto highways.

“The association between the parkway and the car, is to my mind, right now, obsolete,” Fishman said. “We need a much more complex way of using the parkway and of accessing the parkway.”

The original essence of the roadway experience of a parkway was for motorists to meander down its length at a slow speed, stopping to take walks or hikes in the parkland along the way.

That changed when faster cars were invented, Fishman said. But returning to that original intent of “the basic social character” of the parkway is what will save the form in the future, he said.

“In the future, I think what we call the parkways, the linear parks, will be used by people who don’t get there by car, but who get there by various forms of transit, bikes or by walking,” Fishman said. “That’s one of the main reasons we have to put the roadway and the automobile in its place in the parkway.”

That was one of the main takeaways of the NCC’s chief executive, Mark Kristmansson, who did not directly respond to a question about how Fishman’s LRT message directly conflicts with the NCC’s own position on the matter.

“Of course, his overall message is ‘Why don’t we slow down?’” Kristmanson said.

The NCC executive said he was fascinated by Fishman’s descriptions of how the cross sections of parkways – the widths allotted to different uses, such as parkland, pathways and roadways – could be reused.

That message is “inspirational” as the NCC looks to undertake a study on how to transform the Sir John A. Macdonald Parkway into a linear park.

“It’s very timely for use to consider these things and also somewhat hopeful in that parkways have a history and they also have a future and maybe high speed is not part of that future,” Kristmanson said.

Funhaven turns to terror as Halloween approaches

Steph Willems steph.willems@metroland.com

News - Terrifying frights await visitors to this year’s Fury of the Fallen haunted house experience at Funhaven.

Organizers of this year’s event, which raises money for the Children’s Hospital of Eastern Ontario, are hoping to top last year’s attendance and financial figures.

In 2013, a total of $55,000 was raised for CHEO from 10,000 attendants.

Originating as Chills for CHEO several years ago, the name of the annual haunted house at Funhaven’s Baxter Road location was changed to Fury of the Fallen last

year. The charitable recipient hasn’t changed, nor has the venue’s intention, said Joanne Thurlbeck, community fundraising manager at Funhaven.

“We took the name (of CHEO) out of the title in order to build on the storyline – it doesn’t detract at all from the intention,” said Thurlbeck. “Last year was the first year we called it Fury of the Fallen and made up the story of Mordella Stillwater, a missing woman. This year we’re building on that.”

The narrative of the attraction concerns Ms. Stillwater, 23, who last year disappeared without a trace in Ottawa’s west end.

A reported sighting of the missing woman placed her near abandoned houses on Baxter Road, but searchers got more than they bargained for when Stillwater ambushed her would-be rescuers in a house set up for gruesome rituals.

This year’s attraction picks up the story, with Stillwater

being transferred to a former abandoned asylum for the criminally insane. No doubt, terror lies in wait for anyone hoping to see what happens next.

The attraction, which is rated 14-plus due to its noholds-barred fear factor, opened on Oct. 16 and runs until Halloween on select evenings.

While Funhaven is made for kids, Fury of the Fallen is now an adolescents-andadults affair.

“We wanted to make it more of an experience,” said Thurlbeck.

“It is very scary – above and beyond your traditional haunted house.”

A total of 200 staff and volunteers work from September onwards to make the event a screaming success, with everyone from carpenters to makeup artists offering their expertise.

of a colony does not work. Nature, as they say, abhors a vacuum and other cats simply come to occupy the vacant colony, generally because of its proximity to shelter, food and water. The effectiveness of TNR was proven with the gradual elimination of the Parliament Hill Colony by some amazingly committed volunteers and the OHS a few years ago.

Like so many issues in animal welfare, controversies rage, and numbers of animals often exceed our resources to help. There are likely dozens of colonies in the Ottawa area, possibly many more. In fact, one of these controversies is how many feral cats there actually are in a given community. The OHS helps a handful of colony caretakers with surgical and other medical services, and we are very proud of our role in humanely eliminating the Parliament Hill colony, but our efforts are likely the proverbial drop in the bucket.Our best hope is education and promoting the kind of responsibility that would stop feral cats from coming into existence in the first place, through spaying and neutering cats and not letting them roam. And this takes time.

You may not have heard, but last Thursday was National Feral Cat Day. Feral cats occupy a grey zone in the world of animal welfare. They are not wildlife per se. They are interlopers in our natural world and can cause considerable destruction in wild bird and mammal populations. They were introduced through human irresponsibility, and therefore are a human responsibility.

But they are not fully domestic pets either. They cannot just be rounded up and socialized. Kittens up to four months can be socialized, but adults will frequently injure themselves trying to escape when confined. Their panic in prolonged confinement is simply not humane.

Most progressive humane societies like the Ottawa Humane Society practice Trap, Neuter, Return (TNR) to address the needs of feral cats.

Feral cats are removed from a colony, sterilized, vaccinated, and then returned to the colony. If newly introduced cats — new stray cats and the feral’s kittens — are consistently removed, the colony will disappear over time. Studies indicate that simply removing all the members

But when Chaos gets started, you can almost guarantee it was Whiskey that got him going.

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!
