Riverside South students should go to Farley Mowat: school board No more room at Manotick, Steve MacLean schools Emma Jackson

emma.jackson@metroland.com

News - New students in parts of Riverside South

could attend Barrhaven’s Farley Mowat Public School as early as next September.

Overcrowding in the growing community’s one elementary facility, Steve MacLean Public School, has prompted staff to review the area’s existing boundaries to put “temporary stop-gap measures” in place until the provincial government approves funding for a second Riverside South school.

6 from the new housing developments south of Earl Armstrong Road attend Manotick Public School.

Students from developments east of Limebank Road go to Steve MacLean.

But Steve MacLean is fit to burst, and Manotick is not far behind.

The aging Manotick school, which only accepts students from JK to Grade 5, currently has about 260 students, with a capacity of 279 – and as the Mahogany development south of Manotick continues to be built out, classrooms are starting to fill up.

The school has already accepted 22 students from Riverside South to date.

Built in 1942, on a small property, it has little room to add portables if classrooms overflow. Kars on the Rideau Public School further south is also feeling the pinch as all students transfer to the larger school for grades six to eight.

St. James church to close Bridge St. entrance Emma Jackson

emma.jackson@metroland.com

News - An increase in aggressive cutthrough drivers has led the council at St. James the Apostle Anglican Church to close the gates on its Bridge Street entrance.

The church has installed a swinging gate across the access, which will officially close Nov. 12, leaving only its Clapp Lane access open.

The Bridge Street entrance will still be open for regular Sunday services and other hightraffic events like funerals, weddings and community meetings, as organizers see fit.

Church spokesperson Douglas Frosst said cut-through traffic in the parking lot has been a long-standing problem, but it reached a fever pitch when Manotick’s main thoroughfare was backed up with construction last year while the city installed a new traffic light at Dickinson Circle and Princiotta Group developed its new

seniors’ residence across the street.

“We noticed an increase in people who were cutting through the parking lot, and some of them were going at quite a significant speed,” said Frosst.

They flagged some drivers down, and many said the cut-through was more convenient than waiting at the lights at Bridge and Manotick Main Street, or Bridge and Dickinson Circle.

While most were apologetic, Frosst said church members have also witnessed “extreme behaviour.”

The most acute example involved a church member who was doing some maintenance in the parking lot. To keep himself safe, he had parked his car across the Bridge Street entrance. But it didn’t work. “(A driver) went up and over the grass and made an obscene gesture as if to say,

A new swing gate will block the Bridge St. entrance to St. James church except for major events.

“What’s your right to close the parking lot?”

Frosst said. “It’s a small number of people who unfortunately have caused us to take this action.”

The church hosts a number of community groups, including day camps in the summer, regular seniors’ clubs and playgroups.

Frosst said liability has become an increasing concern, so installing the gates was necessary to keep parishioners and community members safe.

“We don’t treat it any differently than shovelling our driveway to remove ice and snow,” he said.

For the most part, the new gate will be locked unless user groups decide they want them open, Frosst said.

“It will be up to the person running the activity to decide what they want to do,” he said.

“They have to decide if they want the convenience of having the gates open or the safety of having them closed.”

She said she doesn’t want to see the next generation leave Ontario to find a land of opportunity in Newfoundland, Alberta or Saskatchewan.

The first step to changing the course the province is on is to pick the right leader, MacLeod said.

Alex Lewis said he believes the province needs an economic driver.

“I think Lisa MacLeod is that strong economic driver,” he said.

“She’s going to create jobs. She’s going to return employment and prosperity back to this province. She’s the leader we need right now.”

Mayoral candidate Mike Maguire said he likes MacLeod’s youth and energy.

“This is someone who is really focused. She has all the right tools to take us to victory,” he said.

Results of the leadership vote will be announced on May 9.

News - Lisa MacLeod said her biggest strength for the coming race to lead Ontario’s Progressive Conservatives is her ability to connect with people just like her.

MacLeod, MPP for Nepean-Carleton, launched her campaign on Oct. 19 at the National Arts Centre.

“I have been able to, in the last four elections, in the biggest city in eastern Ontario, to build a coalition to send me to Queen’s Park,” she said. “It’s because I have been able to connect with people just like me – who are either a new Ontarian or a soccer mom, who aren’t traditionally voting Progressive Conservative – but have chosen me as their messenger. I am going to reconnect with them across Ontario.”

MacLeod faces some stiff competition from Christine Elliot, the wife of late federal finance minister Jim Flaherty, as well as caucus mates Vic Fedeli, Monte McNaughton and federal Conservative MP Patrick Brown have already announced they’re running for the leadership.

From now until the two votes on May 3 and 7, MacLeod said she plans to visit all 107 ridings in the province.

“If I am the leader I will ensure Ontarians believe in us again,” she said. MacLeod kicked off her campaign with a high octane cheering session and a crowd of supporters – including husband Joe Varner and their daughter Victoria. Victoria’s Girl Guide troop was also on hand selling cookies while people registered to become card-carrying Conservatives.

She also had support from York Region and Simcoe County MPPs Julia Munro and Garfield Dunlop, as well as neighbouring MPPs Steve Clark (Leeds-Grenville) and Jim McDonnell (Stormont-Dundas-South Glengarry).

She said the path to success is a return to basics. “We need to believe in what we stand for again,” she said.

“No more campaign surprises. Those elected by the executive and the members of caucus will have a seat at the table for the campaign. I can’t wait for those debates.” MacLeod said the core values of living within our means while helping those who can’t help themselves is a message that will allow Ontarians to believe in the PCs again.

“June 12 was the toughest day of my political career,” MacLeod said, referring to the recent election results. “Like everyone here (at the NAC), my heart was broken when our party lost our fourth consecutive election to a tired, worn out and scandal-plagued Liberal government.

When asked if her ties to Tim Hudak would hurt her in the leadership race, MacLeod said every leadership candidate was a member of the party during Hudak’s tenure.

“Success has a million fathers, but failure is an orphan,” MacLeod said. “At the end of the day the biggest thing I can do is reconnect with people that haven’t been connecting with our party. They will look at my story, they’ll look at my energy and the teams I have been able to build.”

She added that she wasn’t an adviser during Hudak’s campaign.

“During the last campaign I did as I was asked, just like I did under John Tory. I have my own voice. I have my own ideas in the direction of

Day of violence shocks capital Ottawa East News staff

News - Following a whirlwind of violence that gripped the capital, Canadians were reminded that they are “not immune” to the scourge of terror.

Much of downtown Ottawa was locked down on Oct. 22 after a shooting at the National War Memorial which left Cpl. Nathan Cirillo, of Hamilton,

dead and a gun battle in the halls of Parliament.

Following reports that there may have been as many as three attackers on Parliament Hill that day, police confirmed later on Oct. 22 that there was only one shooter, identified as Michael Zehaf-Bibeau, who was shot dead in the Hall of Honour inside Parliament’s Centre Block.

Police responded to the initial call at the War Memorial near Parliament at 9:52 a.m., where bystanders were helping Cirillo, who was shot on the steps of the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier while providing an honour guard with an unloaded weapon.

Shortly afterwards, shots were heard inside the Centre Block of Parliament.

Last year, $20,000 was raised and directed toward the establishment of a breakfast program in Nunavut.

All That Glam is the initiative of students and volunteers from the Stittsville and Ottawa communities.

Members of Parliament, who were in caucus meetings in adjacent rooms were sent scrambling for cover as police and Zehaf-Bibeau exchanged fire near the Hall of Honour before the suspect was shot and killed, an action Prime Minister Stephen Harper attributed to Canada’s Sergeant-at-Arms Kevin Vickers.

Later that evening, Harper addressed Canadians.

“In the days to come, we will learn more about the terrorist and any accomplices he may have had,” Harper said on a national TV broadcast.

“But this week’s events are a grim reminder that Canada is not immune to the types of attacks we have seen elsewhere around the world.”

At an Oct. 22 RCMP press conference, Mayor JimWatson expressed condolences on behalf of the city to the family of the soldier who was killed.

“Today is a sad and tragic day for our city and our country,” Watson said. “There’s pain greater than losing a loved one. ... This is a different sort of tragedy, (the origins of which) are not yet fully known, causes not yet fully understood. We all want answers.”

Scarborough-Guildwood MP John McKay said he was in the Parliament Buildings when the first shots were fired.

McKay said he believes this event will change a lot of things, adding he hopes this incident does not lead to people giving in to panic and paranoia.

“There will be renewed calls for security, and Lord knows where we go,” McKay said.

“What I fear is that we get to a point of security where we

Police initially didn’t confirm the number of shooters or whether any suspects were still at large – leaving residents in confusion over whether there were more suspects on the loose.

Much of downtown Ottawa was in lockdown throughout the day as police worked to confirm that reports of multiple shooters were false.

As the investigation unfolded, police were escorting people from nearby buildings away from Parliament Hill, expanding their perimeter to

A large group of office workers was seen walking down Metcalfe Street, coming from Queen Street just before noon, many close to tears.

Many Hill staff and MPs were kept in buildings until late into the evening before the full lockdown was lifted.

The Civic campus of the Ottawa Hospital confirmed Cirillo was the first casualty, admitted at 10:20 a.m.

A second patient was brought in with a non-lifethreatening gunshot wound to an extremity at 10:37 a.m.

Later on, a third and fourth patient were admitted at 12:05 p.m. and 12:43 p.m. with minor injuries.

Parliament Hill gunman was trying to travel to Syria

Laura Mueller

laura.mueller@metroland.com

News - More details about Parliament Hill gunman Michael Zehaf-Bibeau and his quest to travel to Syria emerged at a joint RCMP and police news conference Oct. 23.

The 32-year-old shooter, was killed Wednesday, Oct. 22 after opening fire inside the Hall of Honour shortly after fatally shooting a Canadian Forces member at the nearby National War Memorial. He was a radicalized Canadian citizen who was in communication with an unnamed person the RCMP has charged with terrorism offences, RCMP Commissioner Bob Paulson said.

The RCMP revealed dramatic security video shot by several cameras on Parliament Hill that show Zehaf-Bibeau getting in a beige car that had been parked eastbound on Wellington Street in front of the memorial after twice shooting Cpl. Nathan Cirillo, 24, who was standing guard on honour duty at the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier.

Zehaf-Bibeau pulled a Uturn on Wellington and came to a stop at the Hill entrance near the East Block, where retractable bollards were recently installed.

A bystander approached the vehicle before recoiling

and running away with other witnesses as Zehaf-Bibeau stormed onto the Hill and headed towards a lineup of parked black MP vehicles outside the east block. After jumping in one of those vehicles, the video shows him driving with the car door open up to the west side of the main Centre-Block entrance and dashing up the stairs, all the while carrying a gun RCMP identified as a .30-30 Winchester lever-action rifle.

The entire incident shown on video took place between 9:52:36 a.m. on Oct. 22, when bystanders first called 911 to report the shooting, and 9:53:46, when he entered the Parliament building.

Once inside, Paulson said Zehaf-Bibeau opened fire and exchanged shots with Hill security guards and RCMP before Sergeant-at-Arms Kevin Vickers and members of his team took Zehaf-Bibeau out while hiding behind pillars in the Hall of Honour.

Paulson said the investigation has confirmed Zehaf-Bibeau acted alone.

Zehaf-Bibeau was born in Montreal and had most recently been living in Vancouver before his stay at a downtown Ottawa shelter beginning Oct. 2, when he arrived in the city to deal with his passport application, which had been flagged. However, Paulson said the gunman was not one of 90 people identified as “high-risk travellers” by the RCMP over concerns they had been radicalized.

People on that list, which has since grown to 93, are being re-evaluated in co-ordination with CSIS to determine those who pose the greatest

risk so that additional resources and monitoring can be employed. Paulson said he is hoping cases can be built, leading to arrests.

Paulson said the passport application was still being processed when Zehaf-Bibeau attacked, which resulted in a day-long lockdown of the area around Parliament Hill. But Paulson said the passport issue “figured prominently” in Zehaf-Bibeau’s motives.

“I think it was central to what was driving him,” Paulson said. “Clearly it was linked to his radicalization.”

RCMP do not believe the attack is linked to an incident in Saint-Jean-sur-Richelieu, Que., two days earlier, when another radicalized man, 25year-old Martin Rouleau, ran his vehicle into two Canadian Forces members, killing one.

Paulson said Zehaf-Bibeau may have held dual citizenship with Libya, where his father was from, and he initially told authorities that’s where he wanted to travel. An interview with Zehaf-Bibeau’s mother on the day of the shooting revealed her son had actually wanted to travel to Syria.

Zehaf-Bibeau had a criminal history related to drugs and “mental instability,” Paulson said.

He purchased the vehicle used in the attack on Oct. 21 and Ottawa police chief Charles Bordeleau said the force is looking into reports that two other men at the Ottawa Mission were also involved in the vehicle’s purchase.

Bordeleau said police seized Zehaf-Bibeau’s possessions from the shelter, but wouldn’t reveal what the items were because they are part of

the investigation.

Alan French, a client at the Ottawa Mission, said that on the evening of Oct. 22, police conducted a search of every floor of the Mission building, including every room. Another man, who wished to not be identified, said police removed a large duffel bag from the building that evening – one large enough that it had to be

carried by two policemen.

French said he had only been at the Mission for a week, but remembered seeing Zehaf-Bibeau sitting on the steps of the Mission “in the wee hours of the morning of the killing,” around 3 a.m.

Bordeleau said early reports on Oct. 22 of multiple gunman and shots fired in other locations that turned out

to be false had to be investigated before police confirmed Zehaf-Bibeau was the only shooter.

Paulson and Bordelau emphasized there is no immediate threat to the safety of Ottawa residents or Canadians, but they urged people to remain vigilant.

Pet Adoptions Are Reptiles Right for You? Now more commonly viewed as cool rather than creepy, it seems reptiles are an increasingly popular choice for people who are in the market for a new pet. Reptiles certainly do have some qualities that make them lower maintenance than some other types of pets: they don’t need to be walked, they don’t shed (at least not fur!), some reptiles need to be fed only once a week or so, and they generally don’t make much noise.

Nanooka is looking for an active owner who will take her out for plenty of walks and who likes to throw a ball as much as she loves to catch it!

That being said, reptiles are by no means maintenance-free pets. They come with their own unique set of needs and challenges. Most reptiles sold at pet stores are exotic species – animals that are not native to this area and instead have been transported here by humans over hundreds of years. The Ottawa Humane Society believes that the best place for wild or exotic animals like reptiles is in their natural environment because it is very challenging to meet all of the needs of these animals outside of their natural home.

Reptiles often have very specific housing requirements in terms of light, heat, and humidity, which require careful and frequent monitoring to ensure your pet is comfortable and healthy in their environment. Many reptile

species can live for 20 years or longer, making them a long term commitment.

Certain reptiles can grow quite large over time and will require larger enclosures as they age. For some larger species of reptiles, these enclosures can sometimes cost upwards of $500.

Finally, a number of reptiles eat things that people don’t always enjoy keeping around the house, such as live insects or rodents. And, like any other pet, reptiles should be seen regularly by a veterinarian to ensure they are healthy.

This combination of food, enclosures, accessories, vet visits, and an impacted hydro bill can add up to quite a costly investment.

These are acts of heartless cowards and have no basis in religion.

planned within an hour of the shooting, said Imam Zejad Delic of the South Nepean Muslim Community, before the alleged identity of the shooter was announced.

Though the shooter, alleged to be 32-year-old Canadian citizen Michael Zehaf-Bibeau, was a recent convert to Islam, the response from Muslim leaders was the same, said Delic.

“It doesn’t matter who attacks,” he said. “We all have to stand up together because we have to defend what is ours, and that is the message that I have basically received last night from the meeting.”

The meeting resulted in an open letter to Canadians, conveying the Muslims of Ottawa and Gatineau’s “deepest sympathies,” for the shooting in Ottawa that killed Cpl. Nathan

gion,” said Ahmed. “As Canadians, we pray that God almighty protect all Canadians from harm, and that these terrorists be brought to justice.”

Hashmi said he went to Parliament Hill the morning after the shooting to speak with media on behalf of the Muslim community.

“Actually being on Parliament Hill under those circumstances, I was very emotional,” he said.

Hashmi said that, while finding out the shooter allegedly was Muslim added a new dimension to the meeting of Muslim leaders, “There was unanimous condemnation around the table.”

“Anything that happens of this sort affects all Canadians, including Muslims. There were Muslims who were under lockdown at work downtown, and perhaps even some on Parliament Hill. So we are all affected by this just like every other Canadian,” said Hashmi.

At the meeting, which took place at about 7 p.m. at the Assunah Muslims Association at Bank Street and Hunt Club Drive, there were reports of Muslim school children being bullied in reaction to the shooting in Ottawa, as well as visibly Muslim women being verbally assaulted, said Hashmi.

“There is an extra level of scrutiny that comes onto our community if the perpetrator happens to be a Muslim, which appears to be the case,” he said.

“I do believe it’s a valid concern. At the same time, I think the real tragedy here is what’s happened, and it’s very important to underline that we are all in this together.”

Breast cancer dragon boat team busts out new book Emma Jackson emma.jackson@metroland.com

published compilation of stories put together by teammate Shelagh Needham.

Needham, a Stittsville resident, said she wanted to tell these stories of her dragon boat teammates to show that cancer does not define these women; rather, they are defined by the lives they’ve lead, the relationships they’ve fostered and the dreams they still chase.

She also hopes the anthology will encourage newly diagnosed breast cancer patients to see a light at the end of their personal tunnel.

Forty-six of the 60-plus paddlers on the team are included in the book.

While putting it together, EMMA JACKSON/METROLAND Needham said she discovered Manotick resident Jai Mathu has led an adventurous life since she left Northern India that each woman’s story is to- where she grew up in the Kashmir Valley. Mathu is now featured in a new book about tally unique.

News - There’s very little that can slow Jai Mathu down.

Born in the Kashmir Valley, the Manotick resident has been an adventurer since she was a child.

She grew up in the city of Kargil, India near the Himalayan mountains riding her pony in all seasons and embracing the outdoors even when temperatures touched -40C. When she was 10, her family moved to the more tropical city of Bangalore to escape rising violence – but even as a child she embraced the opportunity for change.

“In Kargil I had a pony, but (in Bangalore) I had a bike and peddled 25 miles or more to my college in town and back,” Mathu said. “It was such a nice place to be as a teenager.”

But growing up in the isolated shadow of the Himalayan mountains gave Mathu an urge for the beyond.

“There was always the curiosity of ‘what’s after that?’” she said.

That curiosity led her on a lifetime of adventure, moving first to Chicago on a Fullbright scholarship to study economics, and then to Canada where her husband worked for Atomic Energy Canada.

Before embarking on a successful economics career, during which she became a senior economist in the federal government and later the director of the Canadian Chamber of Commerce, Mathu took a solo backpacking trip across Europe and the Middle East at the age of 18. She later travelled back to the Middle East a number of times for work, and even picked up some of the local languages which share their Persian roots with her mother tongue.

And it was during one of her adventures five years ago that she discovered a lump near her left rib cage.

She had just returned from a humanitarian trip to Ecuador, where she was helping her daughter provide free dental care for children.

Within days she had been diagnosed with a fast-moving breast cancer, and underwent surgery in a matter of weeks.

But she wasn’t going to take this setback lying down.

“My oncologist said you can’t do this and you can’t do that, but I said I have to do something,” Mathu laughed.

“I’m always busy.”

Within eight weeks she had joined Busting Out, Ottawa’s dragon boat team for breast cancer survivors – and she credits the team for her full recovery.

“Emotionally it was a great thing for me,” Mathu said.

Meeting with other women who were dealing with similar health issues – but embracing life with a cheerful attitude – was inspiring, she said. “This is an organization that really lifts you up.”

The paddling is physiologically quite helpful, too, Mathu said.

The paddling action helps rebuild lost muscle and keeps fluids from building up where the lymph nodes have been removed.

These days, Mathu takes her dragon boat paddle everywhere with her when she travels, so she can bask in the welcoming community of dragon boaters across the world, as part of the International Breast Cancer Paddlers’ Commission.

Ottawa’s team also travels together to international meets and competitions, she said, and gets together in the winter months to maintain their fitness with indoor exercise classes through Breast Cancer Action Ottawa.

And now their individual stories have been joined together in the pages of All in the Same Boat, a recently

EDITORIAL

Rising to the challenge

F

ear is a powerful thing.

If there is one thing that those living here in Ottawa and those across the country should guard against in the wake of the tragic shooting that took place on Parliament Hill last week, it is giving in to fear.

While very young children are often afraid of nothing, we all learn to fear something at a very early age. Fear for adults is often the consequence of a lack of understanding. If we don’t comprehend what something means, or what its motives might be, we tend to fear it.

Despite exposure to the threat of global terrorism over the past decade and a half, Canada had up until last week been fortunate in that it had not been forced to confront terror on its own soil. Those days are now over, and we now begin the process of coming to terms with the reality of terrorism. Now is the time when fear can begin to manifest itself.

As a city and as a country, we need to resist the temptation to give in to fear. Now is not the time

to shrink from the challenges now facing us. Shutting up shop, curtailing freedoms, stoking fearful sentiments – such actions will not help Canada confront terror.

The threat of terror is now upon us, so we must now act. To borrow from Helen Keller, who showed remarkable courage despite having much to fear in her life, “Avoiding danger is no safer in the long run than outright exposure. The fearful are caught as often as the bold.�

Canadians must resist being fearful. We must be mindful, but we must not be afraid. Soldiers should not fear walking our streets in uniform. If our boldest guardians are afraid, we are surely lost.

Our political leaders must not be afraid. Now is the time for strong leadership, the kind that protects the citizens of Canada while maintaining the rights and freedoms that are integral to our national identity.

These are stern tests of our character, but now is time for bravery to shine through and banish fear to the shadows.

COLUMN

Will the Frisbees return to Parliament Hill?

E

very time there is an incident on Parliament Hill, we hear the expression “balancing act.�

The incidents – a bomb going off in a washroom, rogue buses being driven up onto the Hill, attacks on visiting heads of state, cars driving through the barrier, and all the anxiety arising from 9/11 – have become increasingly severe, culminating in last week’s bloody events.

And so, as the networks tried to fill in the gaps while they waited for facts to emerge, the experts were consulted, as they always are, to look at the big picture. And they talked, as they always do, about the openness of our parliamentary precincts and the need to balance that with an increased need for security.

one, the continuing discussion about the openness of the capital and what would happen to it.

The symbol of openness, the one you’ve always heard and the one many of us have frequently witnessed, is the Frisbee toss on Parliament Hill. That was always nice to see, being able to walk up onto the lawns, watch the tourists lined up around the Centennial Flame, the occasional noisy but peaceful demonstration, the members of Parliament walking to Centre Block, the folks having their lunches on the grass and the Frisbees flying back and forth.

That was Canada to many of us, a peaceful place spared from the hammerlock of security.

everything,� somebody said on a news network, and you remember that others have said that previously, but maybe this time it’s right.

Things have indeed changed over the years, little by little, in response to various incidents, various threats.

There are metal detectors for visitors to the Parliament Buildings. There are barricades to keep unauthorized automobiles off the Hill.

But, no more Frisbees? That will be hard to take, even for those of us who don’t toss them. It will be hard to take for what it would signify: the end of innocence, to take another cliche tossed around at times like this.

If it’s any consolation, there have been ends of innocence around here before. Peter Mansbridge – and here’s why it’s good to have him around – was able to look past all the recent disturbances on the Hill and find a parallel more that 40 years ago: the October Crisis.

Boundary change proposal Youths! Adults! Seniors!

Earn Extra Money! a temporary fix: board staff Keep Your Weekends Free!

Continued from page 1

Steve MacLean in Riverside South is even worse off: it has accepted about 40 kids from the housing development east of Limebank to date, despite being more than 200 students above capacity with close to 1,000 students on site. It currently holds the title for largest elementary school in the board, and it relies on eight portables to accommodate everyone.

So, what can be done?

At a public meeting on Oct. 23, staff proposed that beginning Sept. 2015 new students on the south-west side of Riverside South would attend Farley Mowat Public School in Barrhaven – something that has only recently become a possibility with the opening of the Vimy Memorial Bridge across the Rideau River.

The JK-6 school is currently slightly below capacity, with student population expected to decrease somewhat in the next few years, according to a staff report. Staff estimate the change would direct between 15 and 20 students to Farley Mowat in 2015.

Manotick and Farley Mowat students would continue to attend Kars on the Rideau for grades seven and eight.

On the suburb’s eastern side, new students would continue to enrol at Steve MacLean until 2017, when staff hope to open an elementary school in nearby Findlay Creek. At that point, new students would go there, instead.

School board planner for Riverside South Lisa Gowans said these changes aren’t going to lower the population at Steve MacLean any time soon – just stop it from getting any bigger.

“It’s spreading the holding of students over different schools (until we can open a new school),” Gowans said.

“It’s a short-term solution to manage enrolment.”

The board’s planning manager Karyn Carty Ostafichuk said students from these areas currently enrolled at Steve MacLean or Manotick public schools will almost certainly be allowed to remain there until they graduate – although younger siblings who are not

EMMA JACKSON/METROLAND

Ottawa-Carleton District School Board planner Lisa Gowans, left, explains a boundary change proposal to Riverside South residents at a meeting on Oct. 23. yet enrolled will likely follow the new boundaries.

“We very, very rarely grandfather siblings,” Carty Ostafichuk said.

Staff are seeking feedback from parents about the change until Nov. 15, so that the proposal can be considered by the committee of the whole in December.

Meetings about all minor boundary changes across the board will be held across the region until mid-November.

The next meeting will be held at Trillium Elementary School in Cumberland on Nov. 5, beginning at 7 p.m. Another meeting will be held at A.Y. Jackson Secondary School in Kanata on Nov. 10 at 7 p.m.

Minor boundary changes are also proposed for communities in Mer Bleu, Cardinal Creek, Valley Stream, Central Park, Carlingwood and West Carleton.

ALTERNATIVE EXPANSION

Also up for discussion at these meetings is a major boundary change to the board’s alternative education program, which is currently only available inside the greenbelt.

The specialty program is offered at five schools. Of the four elementary facilities, two downtown locations – Churchill Alternative School in Westboro and Lady Evelyn Alternative School in Old Ottawa East – will keep their existing boundaries.

But staff want to expand the boundaries for Grant Alterna-

tive School near Pinecrest and the Queensway and Riverview Alternative School in Alta Vista to accommodate the entire board.

Grant, which currently has a 44 per cent enrolment rate, would add students from areas west of the Rideau River, including Rideau-Goulbourn, Kanata, Stittsville and West Carleton beginning Sept. 2015.

Rideauview has a current enrolment rate of 46 per cent and would add students from areas east of the river, including Osgoode, Gloucester, and Cumberland.

A market demand survey conducted in 2013 identified 220 respondents interested in the program. Staff expect demand from the new areas to initially be low; only 12 students currently attend the schools from outside the greenbelt.

But even a small uptake could cost the board as much as $250,000 a year, as the board would be required to provide transportation for those students once the boundary is expanded.

With only a few individuals attending across the region, they would likely be taxied to and from school, at a cost of about $15,000 per vehicle per year.

Staff said they would try to group students into multi-passenger vehicles where possible.

Feedback on all boundary proposals can be submitted to boundaryrevisions@ocdsb.ca or by fax to 613-820-6968 until Nov. 15.

Winchester hospital researcher to focus on rural issues Emma Jackson emma.jackson@metroland.com

News - A new part-time research position at the Winchester District Memorial Hospital will focus on health issues specific to rural communities.

University of Ottawa professor Kerry-Anne Hogan has been named the hospital’s Chief Research Officer, a new position created with

savings from an eliminated senior management position.

Hogan will spend the next six months setting up a research program that will allow hospital staff to look into issues specific to rural healthcare, including access and transportation.

Hospital CEO Cholly Boland said most health research is conducted in urban centres, with rural implications getting only honourable mentions at best.

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.

Copies of the Riverside South Elevated Water Storage Tank Class Environmental Assessment are available for review at the following locations: City Hall Client Service Centre 110 Laurier Avenue West Ottawa ON K1P 1J1 Tel: 613-580-2400

Manotick Community Centre 5572 Dr. Leach Drive Ottawa ON K4M 1L7 Tel: 613-692-4772

Rideauview Community Centre 4310 Shoreline Drive Ottawa ON K1V 1N4 Tel: 613-822-7887

Boland hopes this position will change that.

“What we want to do is have research that’s rural-based, that is going to benefit Winchester and areas like us,” Boland said.

“Her job is to develop a research program that isn’t just us participating in some big study in the city.”

Access is a major issue. Rural patients are more spread out and often can’t access transportation to get to the hospital the way urban patients can, Boland said.

He used the example of 50 heart attack survivors: when they leave a city hospital, they most likely live near neighbourhood clinics, pharmacies, and other healthcare services – and if they don’t, they have access to taxies, buses and other public transportation to access care as they recover.

In a rural setting, those same 50 people “go off to their farms and disperse through the countryside, but they still need care,” Boland said. “There’s no buses, there’s no taxis and there aren’t very many services, there aren’t corner clinics and those things in a rural setting.”

Hogan will initially focus on setting up the program before any research gets underway.

Hogan, who recently completed her PhD with a focus on emergency care in rural areas, said rural health issues are her particular passion.

She plans to ask the ‘why’ and ‘how’ to make rural hospitals better. “I like puzzles,” Hogan said. “Research is very similar. You have all

Hogan teaches at the University of Ottawa’s Faculty of Health Sciences, where she lectures on research methods. She has done research work with the University of Ottawa, Queen’s University and the Bruyère Research Institute in Ottawa. She also has degrees in physics and nursing.

“Research is one of our strategic priorities and we are happy to have Kerry-Anne on board to lead the way,” said Boland.

Women’s Day adds more music, stores to annual event Emma Jackson

Carleton Ravens Womens University Champions Jessica Armstrong (lead), Lauren Horton (Vice), Lynn Kreviazuk (second). Missing is Breanne Meakin (skip)

Carleton University Ravens, winners of the 2014 CIS/CCA University Curling Championships were: Skip: Jamie Sinclair, Third: Lauren Horton, Second: Lynn Kreviazuk, Lead: Jessica Armstrong, Alternate: Sarah Armstrong, Coach: Graham Sinclair (Photo CIS University Championships)

preparing for the world tournament with us.”

Having a player out of the province is one of the reasons the team needs help with fundraising.

Lynn and Breanne have played at world junior championships. The team hopes to progress into the women’s competitive ranks.

“We hope that we will continue. We would love to meet up when we are all on the same age category.

“For now we’re going to enter a lot of bonspiels to prepare ourselves for February,” says Lynn.

“We have already played in three events as a team, also have Nov. 1 plus two other competitive events.

The Curling for a Cause bonspiel is helping us raise the money we need to prepare for the world competition.”

Each team plays two games in the Nov. 1 bonspiel.

“It is difficult to find sponsorships in curling,” says Lynn. “Kelly MacNaull and Hunt Club are generously putting on this event for us.”

Curling for a Cause Founder Kelly MacNaull was the Marketing Director for CHEO BBQ for many years prior to launching

the bonspiel fundraiser.

“I love doing fundraising and wanted to do something charitable on my own. My husband and I started curling last year and I wanted to tie my event into that,” she says.

“Curling is a great sport, very social. It’s gaining in popularity and the success of the Olympic team has helped too. People are starting to realize it is not just a hobby, but an actual sport.”

The bonspiel can hold up to 24 teams, with about 16 registered.

“Curling has just opened for the year,” says Kelly.

“We are still looking for last minute registrations.

The bonspiel is open to all curlers in Ottawa area.

This is just to go out and have fun and help our girls raise some of the $42,000 they need to represent our country in the world games. They could do very well.”

For more information on Curling for a Cause, contact Kelly MacNaull at 613-850-3716 or by email to kmacnaull@hotmail.com.

For more information on sponsoring this women’s team, please contact Doug Kreviazuk at krev@ sympatico.ca.

Community – The 7th annual Women’s Day in Manotick promises more music, more deals and more stores to explore on Nov. 1.

The yearly event, hosted by the Manotick Business Improvement Area, is meant to kick off the Christmas shopping season with a girls’ day out. Village shops offer deals and samples, restaurants kick their menus into high gear and roving musicians give pop-up performances inside participating stores.

And don’t forget the fan favourite: Manotick’s volunteer firefighters hand out gifts to the first 1,000 women to arrive.

“People are getting in the mood (for Christmas shopping), but it’s before all the crazy stress starts,” said BIA director Donna Smith. “We want women to enjoy them-

selves and to get them thinking about Christmas but still have a relaxing day that’s all about them.”

For some businesses, this is their biggest day of the year.

Donna Smith, BIA director

The fun starts at 10 a.m. and continues until 5 p.m., Smith said.

For the second year in a row, organizers will be handing out event passports. Guests who get enough stamps on their passport can be entered into a draw.

Sax Appeal jazz ensemble and acoustic guitarist Jorge Risi will return this year to rotate through the stores delivering pop-up performances to entertain guests while they

shop.

New this year, a ladies’ quartet called Group Therapy will also join the rotation.

Smith expects the event to include as many as 60 participating businesses in the village.

“For some businesses, this is their biggest day of the year,” she said. “It’s a huge day.”

Watson’s Mill and Dickinson House will also participate.

The mill will be handing out surprise gifts to ladies who stop by the mill, as well as a free book for every lady who visits the used book sale in the Carriage Shed.

Dickinson House will host a traditional Victorian tea service at 1 p.m. Tickets should be reserved in advance at 613692-6455.

Smith said the event has grown to attract thousands of women from across the region every year.

Veteran takes to skies in vintage Tiger Moth jessica.cunha@metroland.com

News - Bruce Bennet’s face split into a grin as he taxied into the Carp airport.

“Oh God, it was so thrilling,” said the 90-year-old veteran.

Bennet, a pilot officer during the Second World War, took to the skies in a vintage 1941 Tiger Moth on Oct. 10 for a joyride over West Carleton and Arnprior – home to two of the 105 airports built during the war.

The Tiger Moth was used for training during the Second World War. The vintage plane is now owned by pilot Robert Fleck, a former military jet fighter pilot who flies for Air Canada.

Before the Second World War there were only 235 trained pilots in the country, said Fleck, a history buff and former president of Vintage Wing Canada.

Thanks to the British Commonwealth Air Training Program, 50,000 pilots and 210,000 crew were trained in four years.

“Most of them would have had their first flight ever in a Tiger Moth,” said Fleck, who lives in Centrepointe.

Bennet, who lives in Rock-

cliffe, had never flown in a plane before signing up to join the Air Force.

After 125 hours in the air, he was sent to navigation school, a 20-week course that started at 8 every morning and often didn’t finish until midnight.

“It was extremely intense,” said Bennet, who enlisted at age 18 after years as an air cadet.

He was given a conditional discharge towards the end of 1945; if he was needed in the Pacific, he would have to be ready to go at a moment’s notice.

He spent two weeks towards the end of the war in New York City with a number of his comrades.

“New York City was euphoric at that time with the indication that the war would be over,” he said.

The group never paid for a single drink, accommodations were 50 cents a day and free activities were provided to allied troops.

Bennet’s 85th birthday present was a flight in a Tiger Moth.

“It was a gorgeous day,” he said. “My prime birthday gift could be nothing better than a flight in a Tiger Moth.”

The family contacted Vin-

tage Wing to see if they could repeat the flight and on Oct. 10, after three re-scheduled flights due to stormy weather, Fleck and Bennet were soaring a few thousand feet over the city, tailed by pilot Ulrich Bollinger, of North Gower, and myself in another aircraft.

The two planes alternated between performing fighting manoeuvres and flying in formation over West Carleton and Arnprior.

Bollinger, who flew fighter jets overseas with Fleck, provided a running commentary of the various moves he performed, like how to dive an enemy aircraft, shoot it down and avoid becoming a target.

Back on the ground, Bennet said it was another flight he’d never forget. “Every moment was thrilling.”

Special adventure in old milk house leaves kids not wanting to go back

W

e had many spots to play when I was a little girl growing up on a farm, but I think one of my favourites was the old milk house at the farm next door to us.

I guess one of the reasons I liked the old black board building was because it was no longer used as a milk house, and we children were allowed to use it as a play house. Friends from all over the area seemed to congregate there most Saturdays, and even though the boys tried to take it over and keep the girls out, they were outnumbered, and we used it just as much as they did.

Uncle Alec and Aunt Bertha (they weren’t really an aunt and uncle, but in those days children did not call adults by their first names) had a big family, 10 children of a wide range of ages, and on any given Saturday, most of them, all of us Hanemans, and various other Valley kids usually ended up in the old

MARY COOK Mary Cook’s Memories milk house.

Tub was one of the pupils from the Northcote School who ambled over every Saturday to check out the action.

He wasn’t called Tub because of his slight build, I can tell you. He was as round as a barrel, and everyone except Miss Crosby called him Tub. She called him by his proper name, which was Horace. Even he preferred Tub to Horace.

That Saturday in the fall I remember so well, started out just like any other. After our chores, we walked across the field and Tub, Cecil and Patrick Herman were already there. The girls were standing a few metres from the milk house, squealing and yelling

something awful. Tub kept running in and out, reporting to the gang of boys who stood looking in the doorway, through as much space as Tub’s big frame would allow.

After a few questions we found out that someone saw a couple of bats swirling around in the milk house, and according to her, they came swooping down ready to plunge into her hair, which we all thought was the main mission of a bat in those days.

Tub reported he saw the bats going into the attic through a small hole near the ceiling. It was one of the few outbuildings on the farm that had an attic -- most were wide open to the roof. But Aunt Bertha had

the attic put in and she stored all sorts of things up there she couldn’t get into the house.

You got into the attic through a small ladder and a trap door not as big as a grocery box.

Ralph said the only way to get rid of the bats was for someone to go into the attic and knock them senseless with a baseball bat. He didn’t volunteer, and neither did any of the other boys standing outside the milk house. To suggest one of us girls go up was beyond comprehension.

Then everyone’s eye turned to Tub. He seemed to be afraid of nothing. I recalled the day he picked up a grass snake by the tail and whirled it over his head. I couldn’t fathom anyone being so fearless.

My brother Everett suggested Tub go into the attic.

About 10 heads nodded in agreement.

Tub bobbed his head up and down, too, just like he was in his right mind.

Everett got the old wood ladder and propped it up

against the beams. I was too scared to go in the milk house, but we had a perfect view from the window at the side.

There was Tub crawling up the ladder with his eyes cast to the ceiling. I took one look at Tub, and a look at the little door, and it didn’t take a genius to figure out it was going to be a very tight fit. He lifted the door and shoved it along the floor of the attic, and stuck his head into the cavity. One more rung on the ladder, and his shoulders would be inside.

He filled every bit of space in the opening, and his arms were hanging by his sides, as if someone had nailed them to his rib cage.

We heard him yell to one of the boys to give him a push.

Everett climbed up the ladder, and placed one of Tub’s feet and then the other on each shoulder.

Everett pushed upwards with all his might, but Tub wouldn’t budge. He was starting to yell that he was suffocating.

The two of them must have struggled for 20 minutes, and it was soon obvious that Tub wasn’t going to move. Emerson had a flash of insight, and suggested the ladder be moved to the outside of the building, around to the little window and someone could crawl in there, and push Tub downwards, since it was obvious to all he certainly wasn’t going to be going up.

Everett jumped off the ladder after removing Tub’s feet, and in a flash they had the ladder out the door and around the side of the building.

We girls were still glued to the window, and let me tell you it was a funny sight to see Tub hanging out of the ceiling with his gum rubbers and overalls looking like they were nailed to the roof with no body attached.

We heard Emerson lift the window and then heard him pounding across the floor of the attic.

Your gift keeps on giving. Forever.

GIFTING TO CHARITY IS NOT JUST FOR THE WEALTHY. A LITTLE BIT GOES A LONG WAY!

by Jessica Houle, lawyer at Sicotte Guilbault LLP, jhoule@sicotte.ca (613)-837-7408, ext. 260

It is a mistake to think that charitable gifting is only for people at a certain income level. Anyone can leave a charitable gift from their estate, regardless of the size of the estate. A gift is a gift, no matter how big or small and every bit helps and is appreciated. The good news is that including a gift in your Will is very easy

a legacy gift in your Will is a great way “ Leaving to give back to the community without having to compromise your time. ”

and will benefit many people. A charitable gift to Forever CHEO enhances the quality of life for children and their families in our community and leaves donors with a sense of fulfillment. Leaving a charitable gift also has some interesting tax benefits which are worth considering.

Another misconception is that you have to volunteer your time in order to give back to your community. Many hard-working people want to make a positive difference in their community, but don’t have time to do it. Leaving a legacy gift in your Will is a great way to give back to the community without having to compromise your time.

If you are interested in finding out about how you can leave a CHEO legacy, please contact Megan Doyle Ray at

megandoyle@cheofoundation.com or (613) 738-3694

In short, you don’t have to be wealthy to make a difference and there is no such thing as an insignificant gift. By including a gift in your Will, whatever its size, you are helping to ensure that CHEO’s important work lives on for generations to come.

Tub was as stuck as a nail driven half way through a board Continued from page 23

We heard muffled conversation, but both boys were yelling, so we couldn’t make out what either was saying.

There was a great whoosh, and the next thing we saw was poor old Tub shoot out of that hole in the attic like a big bag of grain. It was most unfortunate that no one thought of going outside to retrieve the ladder so that he could dismount with some dignity.

As it was he hit the floor like a boulder, rattling the windows, and raising the dust from the boards.

I thought he was dead. He lay there a couple of minutes with his eyes glassed over and one gum rubber about three metres from his body.

Emerson’s head was poking out of the attic door, and no one said a word.

Poor old Tub started to move. He rubbed his hands up and down his body to see if there

were any missing parts, then he rolled over, got up on his knees, and slowly stood.

He reached out for his other boot, walked towards the door, and without as much as a by-your-leave, headed right out the lane to the Northcote Side Road. Not once did he turn to look back.

None of us had much enthusiasm for the milk house after that. Audrey thought we could play house.

Emerson said they might get the BB guns and shoot pigeons.

But everything everyone suggested paled in comparison to the episode we had just gone through.

Human rights expert to discuss genocide at launch of Holocaust education month Jennifer McIntosh jennifer.mcintosh@metroland.com

News - A leading human rights expert will talk genocide during the launch of the Jewish Federation of Ottawa’s Holocaust Education Month at the Soloway Jewish Community Centre on Nov. 9.

Bernie Faber, originally from Ottawa, now works as the vice-president at Gemini Power Corp where he helps First Nations reserves in creating hydro projects and other initiatives to sustain economic development.

But he said he started his social work degree because of his parents.

Faber’s father was a Holocaust survivor.

He grew up in a small Polish village called Bocki. It was in eastern Poland near Pialystok and was home to 750 Jews.

“My father was the only one left after the end of the Second World War,” Faber said. “His

story is not unique, six million Jews were murdered – two out of three European Jews.”

Immediately after the war a movement started called Never Again, Faber said.

Part of the movement was a set of criteria set out by United Nations that defined what genocide is, in an attempt to prevent it from happening again.

“Never again has become again and again,” Faber said.

“Since then we have had the killing fields of Cambodia, the genocide in the former Yugoslavia, Rwanda, Darfur, and the list goes on.”

He added his talk entitled The Shoah: Has Never Again Become Again and Again? aims to look at where we are as a people today.

“How come the Holocaust isn’t seared into our minds as a warning,” he said. “Evil has a tendency to be muscular, unless we fight back. It tends to repeat itself.”

DK A E R CLIC

WIN

Faber started his career as a social worker with the Ottawa-Carleton Children’s Aid Society as a protection worker, then moved to the Jewish Community Centre before moving to Toronto and taking up the role as CEO of the Canadian Jewish Congress.

He said the reason we continually deal with genocide is because of a perception that it’s a problem for “over there.”

“Everyone thinks it’s something that happens in Europe or Africa, but we have our own history of genocide,” Faber said of Sir John A MacDonald’s legislation Treaty No. 6, which ultimately starved First Nations tribes in the plains in the west to make way for the railway.

Faber said the federation’s Holocaust Education Month is ambitious and one of the best in the country – despite the relatively small population of Ottawa Jews, roughly 15,000.

“Organizers go out to schools and churches and provide Ottawans with an excellent opportunity to get educated,” he said.

As part of the month-long campaign, the Mayfair Theatre will show a film called Stolperstein on Nov.16, based on the Stolperstein Project, which was started by German artist Gunther Demnig to commemorate victims of the Holocaust by creating small Stolperstein or small cobblestone-sized brass memorials for a victim of the Holocaust.

He embeds them into the concrete in front of homes where individuals, who were targets of the Nazis, were rounded up, taken away and murdered. Each stone begins with “here lived.”

There are currently 43,500 memorials.

Holocaust Education Month

SUBMITTED

Bernie Faber, one of the country’s leading experts on human rights and race relations, will speak at the Soloway Jewish Community Centre on Nov. 9 as part of the Jewish Federation of Ottawa’s annual Holocaust Education Month. starts at the community centre on Nov. 9 at 7 p.m. to coincide with Kristallnacht (the Night of Broken Glass) when Jewish businesses and homes in Germany were destroyed by the Nazis in what is considered a

precursor to the Holocaust.

“The Holocaust is the most notorious and well-documented genocide and we must do what we can to prevent something similar from ever happening again,” Faber said.

City’s emergency response to undergo review: deputy mayor Erin McCracken erin.mccracken@metroland.com

News - Lessons have been learned following last week’s lockdown of much of Ottawa’s downtown core when a solitary gunman shot a Canadian soldier then made his way into the Parliament Buildings, according to the city’s deputy mayor.

For the second time in four years, the city’s emergency operations centre was activated the morning of Oct. 22 – the first time was in 2013 when six people died after an OC Transpo bus collided with a train in Barrhaven.

“I think our systems were activated quite effectively,” said Deputy Mayor Steve Desroches, who was in the locked down city hall at the time of the shootings. “(The emergency ops centre) involves all of the department heads coming together to ensure that our emergency services are co-ordinated, and that way (ensuring) the continuity of the city,” said

Desroches, who sat in on a number of emergency operations meetings at city hall that morning along with fellow Deputy Mayor Eli El-Chantiry, councillor for West Carleton-March and chair of the city’s police services board.

During those meetings, the city’s co-ordinated emergency response protocol was rolled out, and operational decisions were made, said Desroches, who is also the councillor for Gloucester-South Nepean.

“And that was very much ongoing yesterday in terms of working with the Ottawa police and supporting them and the RCMP and the national authorities – that at the same time scenarios were being planned for the p.m. rush hour in terms of how we would facilitate traffic and keep transit moving.”

Plans were also developed that day to deter additional traffic from coming downtown.

For that reason, city hall was closed “to take some pressure off the transporta-

DK A E R CLIC

WIN

tion grid,” he said, adding that decisions also had to be made on how and when to bring the transit system along Albert and Slater streets, which were closed during the downtown lockdown, back online.

There likely will be a review of the city’s response and how it can be improved.

“I certainly expect that from our officials and I think residents do as well, that if we can tighten it up, if we can strengthen, that’s certainly the objective of this,” he said.

The challenge is that officials cannot plan for every scenario.

“We live in a free society, a very dynamic one. There’s very, very many risk points, but the primary goal is that our emergency services (and) our city is able to respond, our city’s able to communicate during times of crisis, (that) we’re able to make decisions, we’re able to support who’s affected and were able to keep our city moving at the same time an incident is unfolding or has concluded.”

A review of the city’s emergency response during the downtown shooting crisis will likely be conducted, according to Ottawa Deputy Mayor Steve Desroches.

Desroches credited Mayor Jim Watson and Ottawa police Chief Charles Bordeleau for responding to the crisis with level heads in the midst of a rapidly evolving situation involving conflicting information and many unknowns – whether there was more than one shooting, and more than one gunman.

“I think the city is in very strong and capable hands,” Desroches said. “Not everyone handles crisis well, but I’m very impressed with how the chief and the mayor handle crisis and gather facts and make prudent decisions, because in many occasions you’re getting conflicting information, distorted information, you’re getting partial information.

“I think the residents can be reassured that we have top notch emergency personnel, and when there is a crisis our city’s emergency response system is activated and the city’s in a state of readiness and able and staffed to respond.”

At that point, he said, it becomes all hands on deck, from the city’s transportation, transit and public health departments to police, fire, paramedics and bylaw personnel.

He doesn’t anticipate that security measures at city hall will need to change in light of the recent incidents.

While the city can’t possibly plan for every scenario, it does have a system in place so that municipal departments can respond to a major crisis, Desroches said.

“I think as a nation’s capital we prepared for an incident, an emergency,” he said. “We knew collectively this is a post-

9/11 generation. We knew we had to prepare and be ready and I guess we collectively hoped that it wouldn’t happen.”

Being the nation’s capital, which is home to federal departments, national institutions and a number of incidents, the city realized there was a strong possibility for a major incident – “that we’re not immune to it in Ottawa,” said Desroches, who pointed to example of past incidents in which people have targeted Parliament Hill or assassinated diplomats.

“I think we will be affected by this, but I don’t think that we’re going to turn our city into a … fortified military base,” he said. “Certainly we’re going to look at what we can do differently or how do we respond, but I think when you’re the nation’s capital, sadly, we can be a target for people who want to do us harm.”

Greely Players to hold Peter Pan auditions Manotick News Staff

Community - Who among us has never wondered what it would be like to fly? Some lucky people will have a chance to find out if they win a spot in the Greely Players’ 2015 production of Peter Pan, for which auditions will take place Nov. 15 and 16.

The Greely Players will host an information meeting about the production on Sunday, Nov. 9 at 2 p.m. inside the Greely Community Centre.

Director Tim Picotte will return for the production. He has also directed Once Upon a Mattress and Wizard of Oz for the Greely Players.

“We are looking for enthusiastic child, teen and adult performers,”

said Picotte.

“This is a musical, so we will be looking for people who are comfortable singing and learning some simple choreography. Flying experience is not necessary.”

Based upon Sir James M. Barrie’s 1904 play about the boy who refuses to grow up, the story begins in the London nursery of Wendy, John, and Michael Darling, where they are visited by Peter Pan. With the help of his fairy friend, Tinkerbell, Peter takes the three children on a magical flight to Never Land.

Peter Pan, first staged by the Greely Players 18 years ago, returns to the Greely Community Centre March 25 to 29 in a new and enchanting staging.

The show’s vocal director, Greely’s Holly Villeneuve, will partner

with music director John Pohran to recreate the magical music with the help of an orchestra pit staffed by some very talented Canterbury Arts High School musicians.

“We try and include a few younger cast members in every production, and this year we will be able to accommodate quite a few,” said Villeneuve.

“Our production of The Wizard of Oz in 2013 featured many local children, and they thoroughly enjoyed the experience.”

The auditions will be held Nov. 15 and 16 by appointment. For more information visit greelyplayers.ca, or call Joan Bruce-Nibogie at 821-1756.

The Greely Community Centre is located at 1448 Meadow Drive, Greely, just off Bank Street.
