Music and stories take listeners to past Continued from the front

He will use music and stories to take listeners through the timeline of rock in an updated version of a musical history lesson he has performed in Manotick before.

“We’ve done this show in some shape or form twice,” McGovern said, adding that Emmerson performed his first benefit concert in Manotick, a solo show, to raise funds for the Raise the Roof campaign in 2011.

That concert was at Watson’s Mill, the beneficiary of the Raise the Roof campaign.

He returned in 2012 for a second show which also featured 5 Man Electrical Band member Ted Gerow.

“It was fairly chronologi-

cal before, but I’m not sure how he’s going to do it this time,” McGovern said of the rock history performance.

“It’ll have similarities, but he told me he’s kind of revising it and adding things to it, maybe taking some things away.”

McGovern said he is not concerned about whether Emmerson will have run out of material. Emmerson, now 71, found success starting in the 1970s both with 5 Man Electrical Band and as a solo artist.

The band from Ottawa had numerous hits on Canadian charts, and its song Signs reached number three on the US Billboard Hot 100 chart before selling more than one

million copies to become a gold record.

“He’s backed up Chuck Berry and he’s played around the pool at Linda Ronstadt’s house,” McGovern said.

“The guy lived in Los Angeles for 10 years and he and his band were top musicians, so he’s seen everything twice.

He has a genuine story to tell and a love of storytelling and is very great at telling stories.”

Most proceeds from the concert will go to the Ottawa Aphasia Centre. Aphasia is a language disorder caused by brain damage. It is often associated with but not exclusively caused by stroke, and can be isolating for the indi-

vidual experiencing it.

A person afflicted with aphasia knows what he or she wants to say, but maybe be unable to speak the words properly.

Ottawa’s aphasia centre focuses on communication therapy, counselling and physiotherapy.

A portion of the proceeds will also go to the Manotick United Church for community outreach activities.

Tickets are available for $30 for individuals or $80 for families and can be purchased at Manotick Office Pro and Manotick United Church, or by emailing organizer Terry McGovern at mcgovet@rogers.com Refreshments and snacks will be provided and beer and wine will be available for sale. All ages are welcome.

Les Emmerson of 5 Man Electrical Band performed at Manotick United Church in May, 2012 as part of the Raise the Roof concert raising funds to replace the chronically leaking roof of Watson’s Mill. He will return for his third benefit concert in Manotick – this time for the Ottawa Aphasia Centre – with a performance at Manotick United Church on Nov. 13.

Province to ban carding, create guidelines

steph.willems@metroland.com

Draft legislation announced on Oct. 28 would stop random street checks – known as carding – and create new guidelines for police who interact with residents.

The province is seeking action on the controversial practice after high-profile events in the recent past propelled the issue onto front pages, leading to acrimony between citizens, police chiefs and elected officials.

Beginning in June, consultations with the public and community stakeholders, led by Community Safety Minister Yasir Naqvi, were held across the province, including

The draft legislation will also regulate voluntary interactions that happen for valid policing purposes.

Not only will those interactions only be able to occur for articulable reasons, officers will also be required to inform the citizen that they have the right to walk away, while giving them information on the engagement – including the officer’s name and complaint line number – should they decide to speak with the officer.

“The reason for that voluntary interaction to take place is because the police are trying to prevent or detect illegal activities – there has to be grounds to articulate that,” said Naqvi. “If the officer is satisfied that these reasons are met, then there is a further obligation to inform the individual on their rights.”

New training, reporting and data management would ensure that the new regulations are reflected in practice.Feedback on the proposed legislation can be sent to the province via their website. If passed, the contents of the legislation will come into full effect by July 1, 2016.

in Ottawa.

The public will have 45 days, starting Oct. 28, to provide feedback on the draft legislation before the document is tabled at Queen’s Park.

“We’ve been working on this since June, when I initially announced the province would look at carding and street checks,” said Naqvi.

“Since then we’ve been working with our policing, human rights and civil liberty partners, young people, and really paying attention to stories from many people who feel they were inappropriately carded when there was no justification for that kind of stop. “We are expressively prohibiting carding or street checks – we’re putting an end to arbitrary actions between police and public simply to collect information.

These types of actions will no longer be acceptable in our province.

In essence, an officer cannot engage with an individual to collect their information just because of the colour of their skin, the neighbourhood they live in or because that individual decides not to speak to the police.”

In addition to her illustrious playing background, she also holds her Pre-B provincial certification in coaching and is a certified teacher with Bachelor degrees in Teacher Education and Health Science

which is one of five 2015 Remembrance Day ceremonies planned by the Osgoode legion for rural Ottawa south. She said Nepean-Carleton MP Pierre Poilievre and Osgoode Councillor George Darouze were likely to attend, as well as a Royal Canadian Legion Silver Cross Mother.

With improvements to the wall completed in October, the timing is just right for Remembrance Day. “It looks a heck of a lot better than what it used to be,� she said. “I’ve taken photographs at the ceremonies and that side of the legion always looked like we should hide it.

It looked awful for photographs. It was kind of grubby and badly needed a coat of paint. Well they cleaned it up and this year it’s looking great.�

OSU is pleased to announce that Gina Pacheco will be joining our coaching staff, effective September 15th, 2015.

For many Osgoode residents, a Nov. 8 Remembrance Day ceremony at the Osgoode branch of the Royal Canadian Legion will be their first chance to see the improvements branch members have made to the building housing it as recently as October. “One of our members, George Hickey, got the idea that it would be nice to have something outside the hall to support the veterans,� said branch spokeswoman Gail Burgess, adding that the exterior of the building was repainted late last spring, making it a blank slate for a tribute. “He built a white picket fence out there with the silhouette of a soldier kneeling with his gun.�

Hickey added the kneeling soldier and the picket fence to one section of the building’s exterior in June, but more improvements were in store. In September, Hickey cut the shapes of a tank, an airplane and a ship from painted plywood and affixed them to one of the building’s walls beneath the words We Will Remember Them.

Between September and October the legion’s bar officer Laurie MacDonald painted a mural of poppies on the same wall with help from legion members Elsie Hickey and Vicki Mason. “It’s very pretty and it certainly does give a fresh look to the legion,�

Burgess said. “And this will be the first Remembrance Day with it all up on the walls. It hasn’t had a lot of exposure. A lot of people don’t go there often but they’ll go for the Remembrance ceremony and of course it’ll get exposure then.�

Burgess expects at least 100 people to attend the Nov. 8 ceremony,

PC Users group holds one-stopshop event

Osgoode Ward open house set for Nov. 8 Staff

alex.robinson@metroland.com

Have a question about your computer? The Ottawa PC Users’ Group probably has an answer.

The non-profit group of computer savvy members is set to hold a comprehensive workshop in Old Ottawa South to teach PC users about their systems.

The session will include five presentations that will cover a wide range of topics, including virus protection, upgrading to Windows 10, backup strategies, office application software and photo editing.

The group used to hold scattered workshops across the city, but the new day-long session will give people a chance to get a lot of different information in one place, said Jeff Dubois, of the PC Users’ Group.

“A lot of times what happens is we’ll do presentations at different branches all around the city,” he said.

“We’ve combined it into a one-day workshop so that people can learn everything in a one-stop shop.”

Many of the group’s previous workshops have been on one topic, but this session will be more encompassing, Dubois said.

The workshop is geared towards beginners who are looking to learn more about their machines. It costs $45 to attend, and includes a light lunch, coffee breaks and a complimentary one-year membership to the Ottawa PC Users’ Group.

The organization was founded in 1992 and currently has about 110 members who try to help troubleshoot each other’s computer prob-

lems ­– living by the group’s motto: “Users helping users.”

“We have a real passion for this sort of stuff,” Dubois said. “We get really excited about technology.

“We don’t have those plastic pocket protectors for our pens. We don’t have band aids on our glasses. We’re not that far gone, but we’re close.”

The group used to hold its monthly meetings at the Science and Technology Museum, until it recently closed.

The computer enthusiasts now hold monthly meetings at the Aviation and Space Museum.

The one-day workshop will be held Nov. 7 at the Sunnyside branch of the Ottawa Public Library, at 1049 Bank St., a location that Dubois said was an attractive option for the group because it is easily accessible by public transportation.

“We opted to go with the branch because it’s centrally located and it’s right on Bank Street,” he said. “It’s fully accessible, there’s parking and you can get there via bus. We also have Internet access there. It met all our criteria.”

Those who wish to sign up for the workshop must register online by Nov. 5.

CHEO-initiated research shines spotlight on pediatric liver disease Erin McCracken

erin.mccracken@metroland.com

A CHEO-initiated study offers first-of-its kind details on pediatric liver disease.

The research team, which included CHEO and 13 pediatric academic centres across Canada, combed through 10 years’ worth of medical charts to understand symptoms associated with autoimmune hepatitis (AIH), incidence rate, patient outcomes and treatment options across the country.

The findings, published Oct. 19 in the Pediatrics journal, reveal that early diagnosis of the progressive inflammatory liver disease, which can be fatal if left untreated, is key.

Researchers also found it can take a considerable amount of time – up to five months – to make a diagnosis, and that symptoms, which can include fatigue, jaundice and abdominal pain, can worsen in the meantime.

“Before now, there was little data on incidence and prevalence of AIH in Canada, and even the worldwide literature is scarce,” Dr. Carolina Jimenez, lead researcher and author of the study and director of Liver Services Gastroenterology, Hepatology and Clinical Nutrition at CHEO, said in a statement.

“Liver disease is not just an adult problem,” said Jimenez, who is also an assistant professor at the University of Ottawa.

“Our hope is to equip family physicians and specialists alike with evidence-based data so they can start investigations and refer patients earlier; this way kids get treated faster and will have better outcomes.”

Researchers studied 159 children under the age of 18, which represents 2.3 new cases per million children and youth in Canada every year.

“This is a relatively rare disease in children and youth with an incidence of two to four per million, compared to approximately 10 per million in adults,” Jimenez told Metroland Media in an email. “Therefore, clinical research is more often (sought) in adult populations.”

The team also learned this type of liver disease is more prevalent in Newfoundland and Labrador and Nova Scotia with 5.8 and 5.2 cases per million, respectively, Jimenez said.

The progressive disease “... requires invasive testing such as a liver biopsy to make the diagnosis,” Jimenez said. “Children with cirrhosis may need admission to hospital due to complications and very few will need liver transplantation. However, if untreated, it can be fatal.”

The team of researchers also learned that one-quarter of diagnosed children have a strong family history of autoimmune diseases, such as autoimmune hepatitis, rheumatoid arthritis, thyroid disease, and inflammatory bowel disease, among others.

The review also revealed new tests, such as magnetic resonance imaging and blood work, that are used to diagnose the condition, and that different types and dosage of medicines are used across Canada “Standard therapy for AIH includes medications such as corticosteroids and immunosuppressants,” Jimenez said, adding these are available in centres across the country.

“Our paper underscores the importance of recognizing and treating this disease early,” said Dr. Fernando Alvarez, professor of pediatrics at Sainte-Justine Hospital, a mother and child health-care centre associated with the University of Montreal, which was also involved in the study.

“We can do more for this population of very sick children if we aim to standardize care across Canada,” he said in a statement.

“Access to this type of information is a step in the right direction.”

During the public review period, interested persons are encouraged to read the ESR and provide comments. Please direct written comments to: Jabbar Siddique, P Eng. Senior Project Engineer, Transportation Planning Branch Planning & Growth Management Department City of Ottawa 110 Laurier Avenue West Ottawa, ON K1P 1J1 Tel: 613-580-2424, ext 13914 E-mail: Jabbar.Siddique@ottawa.ca If concerns regarding this project cannot be resolved in discussion with the City, a person/party may request that the Minister of the Environment make an order for the project to comply with Part II of the Environmental Assessment Act (referred to as Part II Order). The Part II Order request must be received by the Minister of the Environment during the 30 day review period and a copy of the request should be forwarded to the City of Ottawa. If there are no requests received by Thursday, December 10, 2015, the project will be considered to have met the requirements of the Municipal Class EA, and the project may proceed to design and construction as presented in the ESR.

Mayor to lead delegation to China and Thailand for economic summit Brier Dodge

Watson showed them the dragon head from his office that would go on the front of a dragon boat, prior to the announcement he will travel to China and Thailand with delegations in November.

What an enjoyable week it has been! The weekend was action packed starting with the Metcalfe Cooperative Nursery School’s Fall Open House followed by tree planting in the Water’s Edge Community. Later that day I dropped by St. Paul’s Anglican Church for their “Launch, Lunch and Munch” event and then downtown for the Mayor’s annual Trick or Treat celebration.

Members of Council were also asked to visit some local businesses in their ward and share their location through social media.

On Sunday, I joined in the 50th Anniversary of the CHEO Volunteer Association and then a visit to the Third World Bazaar.

Thank you to Mayor Watson for also dropping by. This great weekend was finished off with a delicious pork roast dinner at Holy Trinity Anglican Church.

As City Council was the only committee meeting of the week, I used the time wisely by touring the City’s Swansea facility. I also had the opportunity to visit a farm outside of Vernon to learn more about biosolid spreading. Thank you to City staff for the invitation and for coordinating the tours.

On Wednesday, we were treated to a special performance by a very talented young lady from Greely. We were extremely fortunate to have Savannah Elder sing O’Canada at the City Council meeting. Savannah did a phenomenal job and I had many Councillors come up to me after the meeting to let me know how much they enjoyed her performance. Thanks so much Savannah for making Osgoode Ward proud!

It is our honour to recognize your valour

Please read below a reminder of some upcoming activities: Halloween – On Saturday, October 31 I will be driving my “Hallowmobile” throughout the Ward handing out candy and visiting with residents. Here is an anticipated schedule for the day: Vernon – 4:00 p.m.

Metcalfe – 5:00 p.m.

Osgoode – 6:00 p.m.

Greely - 7:00 p.m.

I will also be collecting canned food for the Osgoode Food cupboard so please consider donating an item for this important cause.

A big thank you to all the sponsors who made this“Hallowmobile” possible: Anderson and Emerald Links, MacKinnon’s Foodland Greely, Moncion’s Independent Grocer, Graphic Tree Design, Allan Johnson, Appleby mechanical, and J.R.Willis Electrical Contracting LTD. I appreciate the work of all the volunteers and the breakfast group for their generous donations.

Take Our Kids to Work Day – On Wednesday, November 4 the City will be participating in Take our Kids to Work Day. This is an opportunity for grade 9 students to job shadow and provide an opportunity to experience the work world and get a glimpse of the type of careers they can pursue in the future. I have Transportation Committee meeting that morning, but would be happy to open our office to Grade 9 students in the ward who would like to learn more about City Council. Space is limited so please contact my office by calling 613.580.2490 or emailing jenn.johnson@ottawa.ca if you would like to participate.

Veterans wearing their medals ride free during Veterans’ week November 5 - 11. It’s our small gesture of thanks for the overwhelming sacrifice veterans made on behalf of all Canadians.

Mayor Jim Watson will lead delegations to China and Thailand in November, he announced on Oct. 21, flanked by the ambassadors of both countries.

Watson will be part of the Ottawa Tourism delegation in Bangkok from Nov. 20 to 22 for the OneYoungWorld Summit, which Ottawa will host in 2016.

Watson said it made sense to schedule the trip to China, where he will be with Invest Ottawa and business leaders at the same time while he was already in that part of the world.

He will be in China prior to Bangkok, and spend his time in Beijing.

He’ll speak at an investment and innovation seminar hosted by Invest Ottawa and partners while there.

There will also be 15 local business leaders who will travel to China as a part of the Ottawa delegation.

“We have to continue to grow the economy, the economy doesn’t grow on its own,” Watson said. “We have to get out there and market, like every other international city around the world.

“We are a city that really has to go out and expand its private sector footprint, because we’ve seen over the last several years a shrinkage of the federal government.”

Beijing is Ottawa’s only sister city, and the Chinese government purchased the large sign in Chinatown on Somerset Street West as a gift to the City of Ottawa.

During the trip, Watson and delegates will also meet with Beijing municipal government representatives, China’s Ministry of Culture and the Canadian ambassador. It is expected that the meetings will focus on investment opportunities, cultural exchanges and ways to recognize the 150th anniversary of Canada in 2017.

Watson last travelled to Beijing in 2013 with a business delegation. Over the past two years, Invest Ottawa has organized 10 trips to China and received approximately 30 incoming Chinese delegations.

The mayor’s travel and accommodations are being paid for by the Invest Ottawa and Ottawa Tourism budgets, though the city ultimately funds Invest Ottawa and has contributed towards Ottawa Tourism’s budget.

The total cost of his trip is yet to be determined, and Watson said that while there will always be people who oppose city spending on any travel, it’s worthwhile. No city councillors will join him on the trip.

Voter turnout worth cheering

C

anadians took advantage of their right to vote in numbers that haven’t been seen in decades when all the ballots were counted in the Oct. 19 federal election.

As a pure percentage of eligible voters who cast ballots, either on election day or in advance polls, the preliminary 68.49 per cent voter turnout from Elections Canada is not that impressive. But compared to federal elections of the past few decades, that turnout was a significant increase over voter participation rates in the low 60s that have been the norm.

This election’s turnout was the highest since 69.6 per cent bothered to vote in 1993, which also happens to be the last time a sitting majority government went down to defeat.

But since the 1993 election, the number of eligible voters participating had been headed on a steady march downward, including the dismal turnout recorded in the 2011 federal election – and in a freesociety such as Canada, dismal is the only way to describe the 61.1 per cent turnout then.

This spike in voter participation occurred despite the doom and gloom that some people forecast because of the previous Conservative government’s Fair Elections Act, which many critics said made it harder

to vote without approved identification and thus would, in effect, suppress the vote even further.

But campaigns to get people out to vote, which have been ongoing for years, seem to have paid off this time. Voter turnout, for example, among First Nations communities was up significantly, in some ridings by 250 per cent. Other non-partisan get-outthe-vote efforts such as those undertaken at many universities across the country, including here in Ottawa, also played a significant role in getting voters to polling stations.

In the Ottawa region, the higher than normal turnout was even more striking as numbers were well above the national average in all of the region’s ridings. For example, 80.91 of eligible voters in Orléans – 77,811 voters – cast ballots. In advance polls, the Ottawa Centre riding had the highest number of advance ballots cast of any riding in Canada, with the Orléans riding recording the second highest number of advance ballots cast in the entire country.

The question now is whether the upswing in voter turnout is the start of a worthy trend, or a one-time spike in voting that occurred because of the specific circumstances of the just concluded campaign. We‘ll get the answer to that question in four years.

Mailbox memories

I

t might be a bit late for Canada Post to be halting the community mailbox program.

By latest count the number of people with community mailboxes almost equals the number of people with home delivery. Further, some of the people who have community mailboxes actually like them.

But it had to be done. This is more about symbolism than anything and it was important for the new government to keep its promise to revisit the issue and for Canada Post to be responsive to the new government.

The symbolism is about doing things differently, about listening to the people, and so on. If, when the new government comes in, it says, oops sorry, it turns out we couldn’t

CHARLES GORDON Funny Town do anything about that, many of the people who supported it won’t be happy.

So this is a good thing, particularly for those Canadians who haven’t been converted yet. They can get all that junk mail without having to go outside to get it.

Maybe, just to make them feel even better, someone could write them an actual letter every once in a while.

Many commentators are concerned about the cost to Canada

Post but, again, this may not be about cost. Instead, it may be about providing essential services, regardless of cost. Symbolism is involved here too: a government that says it is willing to run deficits can’t seem to be slavishly worshipping the bottom line when important services to Canadians are at stake.

It can be argued on both sides, both as government policy and as delivery of mail. As noted above, you can read letters to the editor from people who enjoy having a community mailbox. And you can see photographs of people who lie down on the site to prevent the community mailbox from being installed.

Those who have just had their door-to-door delivery taken away are understandably upset. And they may be doubly upset when they see that others have been able, through the luck of the political draw, to keep the mail coming to their door. disTriBuTion inQuiries Richard Burns 613-221-6243 adMinisTraTion: Donna Therien 613-221-6233 display adverTising: Gisele Godin - Kanata - 221-6214 Dave Pennett - Ottawa West - 221-6209 Blair Kirkpatrick - Orleans - 221-6216 Cindy Gilbert - Ottawa South - 221-6211 Carly McGhie - Ottawa East - 221-6154 Geoff Hamilton - Home Builders Accounts Specialist - 221-6215 Valerie Rochon - Barrhaven - 221-6227 Jill Martin - Nepean - 221-6221 Mike Stoodley - Stittsville - 221-6231 Rico Corsi - Automotive Consultant - 221-6224

The resulting resentment may be the definition of a First World problem, but hey, this is the First World.

As a friend noted the other day, the guy you wouldn’t want to be is the one who tries to figure out what to do with all those community mailboxes that are waiting to be gifted to unsuspecting neighbourhood streets. They must take up a lot of room, and it’s not as if you can exactly throw them out in the trash. (If so, would they qualify as blue box, or regular garbage?)

It is not necessarily a sure thing that they will not be deployed. But assuming they are not, Canada Post is going to have to find alternate uses for them, thousands of them.

Perhaps they can be melted down and turned into – what? Commemorative paper weights, perhaps. Or maybe filing cabinets for very short files.

Here’s another idea. Pile them all up into a giant heap. With the

Tree planting on SNC Fall agenda With fall upon us, it’s time for residents in the South Nation Conservation (SNC) jurisdiction to plan tree planting for next year.

Through SNC, property owners can purchase a selection of seedlings and more mature trees to beautify their properties and at the same time enhance wildlife habitat, provide shade, and help reduce erosion.

The popular SNC planting program isn’t restricted to private owners. Municipalities and other organizations can and do participate.

Mayor Gary Barton of the Township of Champlain was on hand at a board of directors meeting Oct. 15 when a ceremonial white pine tree was planted at the SNC office

at Finch to recognize the new partnership.

This tree joined others already planted representing partnerships with other municipalities within the SNC jurisdiction.

On Oct. 16, under a partnership with Tartan and Tamarack Homes and the City of Ottawa, 35 trees were planted as a buffer off Cedar Creek Drive in Ottawa; they included 20 white spruce, 10 Norway spruce, and five cedar trees.

More trees will be planted next year upstream along Findlay Creek to promote naturalization of the riparian habitat and improve ecological functions of the existing buffer, explained SNC Forestry Technician Cheyene Ramsey.

“Tartan and Tamarack are among our most active business partners,” Ramsey said.

“They fully understand the value of trees within their residential developments.”

As for tree planting for private owners, Ramsey urged residents to learn more about available subsidies and seedling selection for idle lands, stream banks and buffer strips.

As part of the program, free site visits are available from SNC staff.

Over the past 26 years, SNC in partnership with landowners, municipalities and other organizations have planted over 2.7 million trees, helping support forest cover in the region.

Pumpkins with a purpose Metroland Media’s Ottawa South News was wellrepresented during this year’s 20th annual celebrity pumpkin carving fundraiser which raised a total of more than $12,000 for Children at Risk Ottawa, a not-for-profit organization that supports children with autism. The decorated and carved pumpkins were displayed at area malls and featured in an online silent auction. Reporter Erin McCracken’s reporter pumpkin entry, which accompanied an Ottawa Senators game ticket package, was in the top 13 entries that generated the most funds.

Mayor’s Report

Education minister defends union payments

Ottawa 2017

Erin McCracken

erin.mccracken@metroland.com

By Jim Watson In 2017, Canada will celebrate 150 years as a nation.

We are working hard to prepare Ottawa to welcome the country as host of these celebrations. I still remember the excitement of Expo ’67 during Canada’s centennial year. Canada rallied together to create a year of memories and experiences that crossed generations, and we plan to do it once again during Canada’s sesquicentennial.

That is why Ottawa Tourism along with the City of Ottawa and community partners created the Ottawa 2017 Bureau. As the spotlight descends upon the capital, Ottawa 2017 is working hard to position Ottawa as THE place for all Canadians to celebrate the 150th anniversary of Canada’s confederation.

This is an exciting opportunity to not only commemorate the progress we’ve made as a nation, but it is a chance to look to the future. The energy, excitement and investments generated by Ottawa’s 2017 celebrations will serve as a catalyst for long-term tourism growth.

In fact, tourism is Ottawa’s third largest economic sector, after the public service and high tech industry. Our aim in 2017 is to generate a significant boost in tourism, which presents a tremendous opportunity for local businesses to grow, hire, and we have made significant progress so far.

I recently had the pleasure to announce that The Canadian Academy of Recording Arts and Sciences has selected Ottawa as the host city for the 2017 JUNO Awards.

Ottawa has hosted the JUNO awards before and while this event was a great success, we want to do something even greater in 2017. Our vision is to fill the city with music across venues of all sizes, ending with the Awards Gala at the Canadian Tire Centre.

As diverse as Canadians are, we plan to host an equally diverse selection of large signature events. Joining the JUNO awards in 2017, Ottawa is set to host the Canadian Video Game Awards, Canadian Track and Field Championships, The Canadian Olympic Curling Trials - Roar of the Rings and many more to be announced. Along with Ottawa 2017, the City of Ottawa is working hard to attract the CFL’s Grey Cup and an NHL Winter Classic.

I am particularly excited at the prospect of a Winter Classic as December 19th, 2017 marks the 100th anniversary of the first NHL game ever played, between the Montreal Canadiens and the Ottawa Senators. I believe it would be a fitting tribute to commemorate Canada’s favourite past-time through hosting an outdoor Winter Classic between these two historic franchises.

In addition to preparing a year of memorable celebrations, the city is undergoing unprecedented growth and infrastructure renewal to ensure we are ready to welcome the nation. At the centre of this is the Confederation Line Light Rail project which will be truly transformative. 2017 is also expected to mark the opening of the Ottawa Innovation Centre and the opening of a new Ottawa Art Gallery and revitalized Arts Court.

Ottawa 2017 will be a once-in-a-lifetime celebration and I encourage you to get involved. If you would like to plan your own community even, volunteer or simply learn more, visit www.ottawa2017.ca.

Ontario’s education minister is justifying her controversial decision to pay three education unions $2.5 million without first asking for expense receipts, funds she said were to offset the costs of a lengthy contract negotiation process under a new system that took the better part of a year to iron out.

The Ontario Secondary Schools Teachers’ Federation and the English Catholic Teachers’ Association each received $1 million, while $500,000 was given to the French language teacher’s federation, known as the AEFO, to cover hotel and meeting room expenses at their request.

This year marks the first time the nine education unions have negotiated a collective agreement under Bill 122, the 2014 School Boards Collective Bargaining Act. “We’ve been at it for a year,” Liz Sandals told reporters during a stop in Ottawa on Oct. 23.

It’s a process that will “never ever reoccur,” she said, adding the first six

“There’s never been a central agreement before,” she said, adding every clause in each of the nine inaugural agreements has had to be negotiated.

is that both the trustee associations and the unions have had extraordinary expenses with implementing this first round of bargaining,” Sandals said.

“These are expenses that won’t happen again in the future.”

Sandals disagreed that the payments were kept secret, instead saying the details in the collective agreements simply hadn’t been publicly disclosed.

“Because what I’ve said over and over again is that I’m not bargaining in the media,” she said.

“So it wasn’t that there was any great secrecy about it. It was just that we hadn’t released any of the details of the agreements.”

It doesn’t make sense from the viewpoint of management, or the province, to release the details of one contract before the others have been finalized, Sandals said.

The minister said the new legislation was required in the wake of the amalgamation of the school boards across the province, beginning in the mid-1990s, which resulted in the removal of their taxation rights.

In her then role as president of the Ontario Public School Boards’ Associations, Sandals told the gov-

ernment of the day that if it was going to take away those taxation rights, it needed to repair the “unworkable” bargaining system.

The boards were still the employer, but the government had become the funding source.

When the Liberals came into power, the government created voluntary provincial discussion tables, during which “assistance” was provided to the trustee associations and the unions “to support them with the expenses of carrying on those provincial discussion tables,” Sandals said.

Those costs can’t compare to what the previous provincial government doled out after it restructured the education system.

As the amalgamation system was rolled out, Sandals said the Conservative government of the time set up a three-year fully staffed and funded commission that travelled the province several times to oversee the overhaul.

“Trust me that cost tens of millions, if not hundreds of millions,” she said.

“This is peanuts compared to what the Tories paid to implement their part of it.”

Lest We Forget

Lest we forget.

A short biography of Dr. John McCrae In May 1915, one of Dr. John McCrae’s closest friends and comrades was killed in the trenches near Ypres, Belgium. He was buried in a humble grave with a simple wooden cross. Wild poppies bloomed between the crosses marking the many graves. The next day, unable to help his friend or any of the others who had died, Dr. McCrae gave them a voice through this poem.

On January 28, 1918, John McCrae succumbed to pneumonia and meningitis. He died not knowing the outcome of the war, but with a full understanding of the cost of it. Before he died, Dr. McCrae had the satisfaction of knowing

that his poem had been a success. Soon after its publication, it became the most popular poem on the First World War. It was translated into many languages and used on billboards advertising the sale of first Victory Loan Bonds in Canada in 1917.

In part because of the poem’s popularity, the poppy was adopted as the Flower of Remembrance. The symbolic poppy and John McCrae’s poems are still linked, and the voices of those who have died in war continue to be heard each Remembrance Day. -Veterans Affairs Canada

Province helps protect crops from cold weather Staff

The province has pledged to provide financial support to farmers this winter to help ensure the survival of apples, tender fruit, berries, and specialty crops.

Each year, farmers face the risk of damage to crops and reduced yields caused by Ontario’s cold winter months. To help growers manage this risk and ensure a stable, competitive supply of Ontario grown produce, the province has announced it will share up to 35 per cent of the cost of weather mitigation measures – physical improvements – over the winter.

Those measures include using portable or fixed wind machines, heating and air movement devices, insulating devices, overhead irrigation systems, and crop covers.

Under this initiative, growers may be eligible to receive up to $31,500 per project.

Because winter can also be an ideal season for developing skills, conducting onfarm audits and assessments and planning for the future, these types of projects will be funded at up to a 50 per cent cost-share.

Growers may apply for funding through the Ontario Crop and Soil Improvement Association, which administers the program. The association will accept applications at several points over the next two years, and has posted a schedule of those application deadlines on its website. The first intake of applications for the winter 2015-16 program began on Oct. 22 and ends on Nov. 5, with another intake window open from Nov. 16 to Dec. 3, 2015.

This November, the Children’s Aid Society of Ottawa wants you to know a little more about some of the children living right in our city.

Christie Cookies 500 g Selected Varieties

Children of all ages and backgrounds need a foundation to build their lives on. A foundation helps in healthy development and creates a sense of self-worth; to feel a sense of belonging.

Children get that foundation from a permanent family who cares for them.

But due to any number of reasons, children sometimes come into the care of The Children's Aid Society of Ottawa. In the rare case where they can’t return home, a child will then begin a journey that will hopefully end with them finding stability through adoption.

Pop Expo ups the star power with Shatner visit erin.mccracken@metroland.com

The former commander of the starship USS Enterprise is coming to Ottawa.

The attendance of Montreal-born actor William Shatner, best known for playing Capt. James T. Kirk in the Star Trek franchise, at the third-annual Ottawa Pop Expo next month is a major coup for organizers.

“How did we score that? Through time and patience,” said Cliff Caporale, program director of Ottawa Pop Expo, a celebration of pop culture and science fiction and fantasy-themed movies and TV shows at the EY Centre on Nov. 21 and 22.

“We weren’t planning for such a huge name for Pop Expo,” said Caporale. “It’s a smaller show so the budgets are different from Ottawa Comiccon, so we were like, ‘OK, let’s go for it.’”

The event has featured big-name stars before, including Norman Reedus from The Walking Dead and Tom Felton, who played Draco Malfoy in the Harry Potter series.

In terms of name recognition worldwide, Shatner is the biggest star

to appear at the Ottawa popular culture convention, which this year is expected to draw more than 8,000.

It was Shatner who first announced his Ottawa appearance via Twitter on Oct. 21.

“I think we got the contract, we signed it and not even an hour or something (later) … boom. He announced it himself,” Caporale said with a laugh.

Organizers were initially hoping to book him for Ottawa Comiccon in May, a three-day event that attracts tens of thousands of fans.

“Next year is the 50th anniversary of Star Trek, the universe as a whole,” he said. “We saw that Mr. Shatner, or, as I like to say, Sir Shatner, is unfortunately unavailable during our Ottawa Comiccon weekend.”

But they were thrilled he could instead attend Pop Expo for a special Friday night appearance on Nov. 20, and during the first official day of the convention on Saturday, Nov. 21.

“We’re doing more than just a regular Q and A,” Caporale said, adding that Shatner is scheduled to speak for about an hour, beginning around 7 p.m.

“Shatner is such a natural come-

dian. He’s such a natural storyteller,” Caporale said of the actor, whose extensive credits also include Boston Legal. “He’s got so much to say. He can sit there for a long time and tell amazing stories that are well-timed and humourous.”

Organizers are hoping that during his talk he’ll touch on the upcoming Star Trek anniversary, even his friendship with close friend and former Star Trek co-star Leonard Nemoy, who passed away in February.

Special tickets for that evening go on sale Oct. 28. Attendees are not required to purchase Pop Expo tickets.

Prior to speaking, Shatner will be available for photos and autographs with those who purchase an all-inclusive package, estimated at $200.

General admission to hear him speak is estimated at $25 to $35. Organizers were still ironing out details before press time.

The following day on Nov. 21, Shatner will be available for autographs and photos.

Caporale also hinted that Pop Expo organizers are currently in the process of finalizing some Star Trek-themed “entertainment” to complement the evening with Shatner.

ter, and Brett Dalton from Agents of S.H.I.E.LD. The event will also feature comic book artists as well as several vendors selling collectibles, movies and video games.

For Pop Expo event details and ticket pricing, go to ottawapopexpo. ca.

In addition to Shatner, the starstudded Pop Expo lineup will feature guest appearances by actors Ray Park and Sam Witwer, both associated with the Darth Maul character from the Star Wars universe.

Ottawa soccer players home after strong Danone Nations Cup finish Team Canada sixth out of 32 teams Megan DeLaire

mdelaire@metroland.com

Ottawa U-12 and U-13 soccer players Luka Vujicic and Keera Melenhorst have returned to Canada after performing with the best team the country has sent to the Danone Nations Cup since 2011.

While in Marrakech, Morocco for the 16th international final of the youth soccer tournament from Oct. 23 to 25, Team Canada faced Romania, Indonesia, China, Mexico, Spain, U.S.A. and Germany.

After a victory against Team USA secured Team Canada at worst a sixth place position, the team lost their final game against Spain. The team’s sixth

place finish in the final standings among 32 competing nations equals 2011’s previous best for Canada.

“The calibre of soccer shown

by Team Canada at this year’s international final of the Danone Nations Cup in Marrakech was second to none,” said Dean Howie, head coach for Team Canada since 2001.

“We are delighted with the players’ performances, and very proud of the progress they made at the tournament.”

Each year, Canada’s is the only team to join the international tournament with a mix of male and female players.

Melenhorst, 12, who lives in Kanata, was one of two girls on the team.

Because of its combination of players, Howie said players on some teams tend to underestimate the abilities of Team

Canada.

“But I think some of the delegations from past years eventually assure them, ‘Don’t worry about Canada and the girls.

They can play as well as anyone else,’” Howie said. “The girls did a great job.”

Howie said the team found itself in crucial must-win games against China and U.S.A. and channelled the pressure of those games to push for victory.

“I think the highlight of the players having this objective and feeling the stress of it, but then having the character to reach for that objective, was a good, telling sign and took us over the hump a bit,” he said.

Team Canada landed in Morocco on Oct. 20 after forming from some of the country’s most talented young soccer players.

Vujicic and Melenhorst were

invited to join the eastern Canada team by Danone Nations Cup coaches at the Ontario selection camp in Toronto last spring.

After defeating the western Canada team to become Team Canada, the group underwent an intense training session with the professional Montreal Impact’s own youth academy in August to prepare for the international final in Morocco.

In September, Vujicic – who was raised in Nepean and played as a U-12 goalkeeper for Ottawa South United – moved to Montreal to continue training throughout the year with Impact Academy.

The day after returning to Canada, he said he felt encouraged by the team’s final standing in the tournament and its performance throughout.

“I think we played really

We played well but we lost in a penalty shoot-out,” he said, adding that despite the team’s loss against Spain, the chance to compete in the Dan-

one Nations Cup has only reinforced his desire to play soccer at the highest level.

“It makes me want to be more of a professional in the future.”

Rural Ottawa south to host 2016 Canadian Plowing Championships Staff

The Ottawa Carleton Plowmen’s Association announced early in October that they will host the 2016 Canadian Plowing Championships from Aug. 23-27 at Anderson Links Golf Club on Anderson Road.

The championships will draw competitors from across Canada to represent their provinces in several plowing classes.

The winners of those three classes – senior conventional, senior reversible and junior conventional – will represent Canada in the 2017 World Ploughing Competition in Kenya.

The 2016 Ottawa Carleton Plowing Match will be held at the same location on Aug. 27.

That competition will also include a market, display and events section.

The Ottawa Carleton Plowmen’s Association and the Canadian Plowmen’s Organization are non-profit organizations that aim to preserve the art and skill of match plowing in Canada.

More information about the Canadian Plowmen’s Organization and the 2016 Canadian Plowing Championships is available at www.canadianplowing.ca.

The cow clinic is open for business

couple of our cows are still drooling.

The Farmer took another look at the dosage on the Ivomec de-worming medication and realized he needed to give them about five times what he originally administered during his flying leaps through the herd. You have to spray the liquid on their backs. But first you have to corral them and sneak up on them. It’s a lot easier said than done.

Before he headed out to the barn to feed and do chores, I clipped a pedometer on his belt.

“We’re going to start counting our daily steps,” I announced.

“Why?” he shrugged.

DIANA FISHER The Accidental Farmwife “Because we are supposed to walk 10-12,000 steps a day,” I said.

“Says who?”

I convinced my husband that it was a good way to keep activity top of mind.

“Oh and when I get to 10,000 the pounds just fall off,” he said, shaking his head.

We got the cows in the barn by bringing fresh hay

bales in where they could smell them. Step one, accomplished. Then we pushed them out the door where they were huddled at the entrance to the metal chute or alley with the headgate at the end.

“Just hold that bucket of sweet feed on your side of the headgate. When she puts her head through, push the gate lever down and it will hold her head in place.”

Theoretically, yeah. But this is a 1500lb Big Betty with an attitude. She wants the sweetfeed, all of it, then she is just going to shake that headgate lever off her neck and shove the whole gate open. And that’s exactly what she did. But by then she had her medication.

We are still learning just how strong our barn infrastructure needs to be to hold a cow in place. A lot stronger than it does to hold a sheep in place, that’s for sure.

This procedure went on for the next few minutes – push the cow into the chute, put the bar down behind her bum so she can’t escape, spray medication on her back, release. I ran out of sweet feed

after Betty so she was the only one who got a treat. I’m pretty sure the rest of them could smell it and were quite confused about the trick.

Finally the only cow that remained to go in the chute was the sickest one of them all. Her chin was swollen with parasites and she had a foamy drool on her lip. But she didn’t like being the only one in the chute, so she took a run at the gate and, with all her strength, put her shoulder into it and busted it open.

“She’s the main reason I was doing this today,” the Farmer said, throwing his cane on the ground.

“You can still get her,” I encouraged. “Look. She’s right there, in the middle of

the crowd around the hay feeder. Just sneak up on her and spray her back.”

The problem is, you have to pump the spray nozzle five times to get enough of a dosage. I am reminded of our big Belgian horse Misty, how she used to jump, all 1800 lbs. of her, straight up in the air if she heard a squirt from a spray bottle. I used to have to spray a cloth with bug repellent and wipe her down with it because she could not stand to be sprayed.

The Farmer snuck up behind the black drooling cow with the white face. She munched happily away on the hay, oblivious.

Basque chicken stew is colourful and tasty

Support hospice care in your community

Serve this vibrant red stew with mashed potatoes and crusty bread to soak up the rich sauce.

Preparation Time: 10 minutes Cooking Time: 25 minutes Serves: 4 INGREDIENTS

• 2 tomatoes • 1 lb (500 g) boneless skinless chicken thighs • 2 tbsp (25 mL) extra-virgin olive oil • 1 onion, chopped • 1 sweet red pepper, chopped • 1/2 cup (125 mL) finely diced Serrano ham (Spanish cured ham) or prosciutto (about 1-1/2 oz/50 g) • 2 cloves garlic, minced • 1/2 tsp (2 mL) each salt and smoked paprika • 1/4 tsp (1 mL) pepper PREPARATION INSTRUCTIONS

Cut tomatoes in half crosswise; gently squeeze out seeds and chop. Trim off any excess fat from chicken thighs; cut each thigh in half.

In Dutch oven or large saucepan, heat 1 tbsp (15 mL) of the oil over medium heat; cook chicken, in batches, until lightly golden, 2 to 3 minutes per side. Transfer to plate.

Add remaining oil to pan; cook onion and red pepper until softened, about 3 minutes. Add

ham, garlic, salt, paprika and pepper; cook for 1 minute. Stir in tomatoes. Nestle chicken in sauce and bring to simmer; cover and simmer until juices run clear when chicken is pierced, about 15 minutes.

Tip: For a thicker sauce, combine 1 tbsp (15 mL) each cornstarch and cold water until smooth. Stir into stew at the end, bring to boil and cook until thickened.

Foodland Ontario

I have lung cancer. Day Hospice is a place where I forget my illness, have a relaxed lunch shared in good company, and know I am in a safe and understanding environment. I have also discovered that it is never too late to learn new skills—no matter how ill or how old you are. At Day Hospice a wonderful volunteer named Kathy helped me to find my artistic side.

I look forward to my time on Tuesdays. It’s a time to forget what I am living with each day and a respite for my spouse who knows I am in a safe and caring place for a few hours.”

Peter Sorby likes to give back – and he’s doing it again.

As the Winchester District Memorial Hospital’s new Auxiliary President, he hopes to convince others to get involved as well.

“Most people have no idea about all the things that WDMH volunteers do and the many ways they are involved with their local hospital,” said Sorby. “Our job is to change that.”

Peter, who has lived in Russell for over 40 years, has been volunteering at WDMH for 15 years. He was part of the Renewing the Vision fundraising committee that helped build the new hospital. He also served on the WDMH Board for nine years, including serving as Board Chair.

And he is past Chair of the Dundas Manor Board. “The Auxiliary just seemed like the logical next step,” he laughs.

Peter says he carries the Auxiliary brochure in his pocket so he is always ready

Peter Sorby to talk about its good work.

“Everyone knows about our hospital greeters and the annual bazaar, but it’s the work behind the scenes that is just as important. Auxiliary members work in almost every department to the hospital and they are involved in community fundraising as well. We want to increase those opportunities

for people who want to get involved and give back to their hospital.”

There is no cost to join the Auxiliary and the need for more volunteers always exists.

If you are interested in volunteering at WDMH, please contact Alan Archer at aarcher@ wdmh.on.ca or 613- 774-2420 ext. 6323.

The Winchester District Memorial Hospital (WDMH) now offers expanded outpatient physiotherapy services in Winchester and at a new clinic in Embrun at Centre de Santé Communautaire de l’Estrie.

The goal is to improve access to much-needed local care, especially for seniors and young people. The Ministry of Health and Long-Term Care has identified both Winchester and Embrun as underserviced areas and has provided additional funding for the programs.

“We are excited to be able to offer these additional services close to home,” notes Lynn Hall, Senior Vice President, Clinical Services. “It is a great addition to WMDH’s rehabilitation program.”

Kimberley Smalridge Physiotherapist Kimberley Smalridge has joined the WDMH rehabilitation team, caring for outpatients in both Winchester and Embrun. Kim has worked in outpatient rehab for most of her career. Her passion is teaching self-management skills to patients to help them manage their condi-

tion and improve their quality of life.

Eligible patients for the expanded program must have a referral from a physician or nurse practitioner and be either 65 years of age and older, or under the age of 20. Other patients include those who have recently been hospitalized or have had surgery and require physiotherapy. Those with Ontario Works or Ontario Disability Support coverage are also eligible.

“I’m passionate about health care close to home.” notes Smalridge. “These services are needed and it’s not always easy for people who are unwell to get to Ottawa.

Our patients tell us how grateful they are to have this new service nearby.”

Two sex assaults on women may be linked: police Erin McCracken

erin.mccracken@metroland.com

One man may be responsible for two near identical sexual assaults on young women in less than 24 hours, prompting police to ask for the public’s help.

Investigators with the Ottawa police sexual assault and child abuse section suspect the attacks may be related for several reasons.

“In some incidents it’s going to be related to how it was done,” said Const.

Chuck Benoit, Ottawa police spokesperson.

Connecting crimes can be based on similarity in clothing, words spoken by the suspect, items the suspect may have been carrying at the time, how he may have grabbed the victim and evidence left behind.

“Certain details are very similar, so they’re able to say there’s a possibility that this is the same suspect,” Benoit said, adding the timing and location of the assaults may also be a factor in making that link.

Police are now turning to the public for help in identifying the suspect to prevent

possible future attacks.

“If it’s two separate incidents and he’s still at large – this is one of the reasons why they’re pushing it out to the public,” said Benoit.

“Certain details are very similar, so they’re able to say there’s a possibility that this is the same suspect.”

Const. Chuck Benoit, Ottawa police

In the first case, police said a young woman walking alone was approached from behind and sexually assaulted on Oct. 19 around 11 p.m. in the 100-block of Chesterton Drive in the Fisher Glen neighbourhood, not far from General Burns Park.

“The female victim screamed and the male suspect fled on foot,” police said in a statement.

DESCRIPTION

The suspect is described as a Caucasian male in his

20s. He was wearing a black winter coat with a fur collar and light blue jeans.

The following night around 9 p.m., police said a male came up behind another young woman as she walked along Colonel By Drive near Hog’s Back Road and sexually assaulted her.

Similar to the first case, the victim screamed and the man ran away.

That suspect is said to also be a Caucasian male in his 20s, between five-foot-eight and five-foot-10, with short dark hair.

He too was wearing a black winter coat with a fur hood liner. In this incident, he was wearing beige pants and running shoes.

In both cases, the suspect did not have facial hair or glasses.

Neither victim required medical treatment, Benoit confirmed.

Police are urging anyone with information on these attacks to contact the sexual assault and child abuse unit by calling 613-236-1222, ext. 5944, or call National Capital Area Crime Stoppers at 613-233-8477.

As darkness fell on Oct. 24, Ottawans young and old made their way into a dim city hall, hoping to find thrills, chills, and quite possible, candy. This was the ninth annual Trick or Treat with the Mayor event, designed to provide a fun pre-Halloween event for children while raising donations for an essential community service. This year’s benefactor of donations was the Ottawa Food Bank’s Baby Supply Cupboard, with admission to the event being one non-perishable item for the service. Here the mayor, sporting a conductor’s outfit in light of the city’s LRT project, spends some quality time with Kim Tulipan and her daughter Constance Le Bouthillier.

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

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

ARIES - Mar 21/Apr 20 Creativity will help you achieve much this week, but it’s also important to maintain a practical outlook. These two factors combine for a greater measure of success.

TAURUS - Apr 21/May 21 Romance is on your mind this week and you have to find a way to fit it prominently in your agenda, Taurus. If you have been busy lately, slow down to spend time with a loved one.

GEMINI - May 22/Jun 21 Home may feel like a personal retreat after the last few weeks you have been experiencing, Gemini. If you need rest, take it. It’s not a sign of slacking off.

CANCER - Jun 22/Jul 22 This week you are bogged down by menial tasks and hope that something more exciting will come your way, Gemini. If you play your cards right, the weekend could be a blast.

LEO - Jul 23/Aug 23 Leo, a financial boost may compel you to go on a spending spree. Just be sure you keep track of those purchases so you do not go overboard.

VIRGO - Aug 24/Sept 22 Virgo, your confidence peaks this week and you take a leap of faith in a new arena. It may be a new job or a thrilling hobby. Travel is another option that may require bravery.
