EMC news - Becoming a successful professional football player requires hard work, seriousness and perseverance. This is the message that Oakland Raiders defensive tackle Christo Bilukidi brought to his former high school with hopes of inspiring students to follow their dreams. Bilukidi returned to Franco-Cité high school, which he attended as a Grade 9 student and gave an inspiring presentation to the students about both his personal and professional life. He spoke about his experience as a rookie NFL player and showed students how good balance between academics and sports can be the key to success. “It feels good trying to explain to the young generation what it takes to get where I am right now,” said Bilukidi. Bilukidi played collegiate football for the Georgia State Panthers before becoming the first former Georgia State football player to be drafted into the NFL when he was chosen by the Raiders.

EMC news - While some communities clamor for sidewalks, Riverview Park is questioning why the city would bother building a sidewalk on two blocks of a dead-end street. On March 4, Alta Vista Coun. Peter Hume asked the transportation committee to delay the $117,000 project to construct sidewalks on a portion of Botsford Street South that
was planned for this year. He said residents told him the sidewalk isn’t needed because there is very little traffic on the dead-end street and because the sidewalk would only connect to Smyth Road. “They can’t see the connectivity now because it’s being done in pieces,” Hume said. Botsford Street South only has about 10 homes on it, Hume said, and residents told him they feel safe walking along the road because there is so little traffic there.
The Riverview Park Community Association wasn’t aware of the Botsford sidewalk matter but the group’s planning chairman, Kris Nanda, said that’s probably because it’s a very localized issue. A few Botsford residents he communicated with didn’t have a problem with the change, Nanda said. Hume said he doesn’t think the sidewalk is needed at all, but “that’s a discussion for another time.” See SIDEWALK, page 28 R0011951344

He was chosen by the Raiders as the 189th pick overall in the sixth round of the 2012 NFL Draft. “I can’t explain well enough how accomplished I feel right now,” said Bilukidi. The 23-year-old star told the packed auditorium that making it to the NFL was a struggle. “My message to them is keep persevering. Just because you are from a city like Ottawa doesn’t mean that you can’t do what you want to do,” he said. “You want to play pro-football go ahead. Go follow your dreams, but take calculated steps.” He added that sometimes it requires taking a risk to succeed. Taking a risk led to Bilukidi to leave his home and family to try out his luck in the United States. “I took a risk for leaving my home and I had to go somewhere I had no idea how people were there,” he said. Bilukidi had only played football for five years when he was drafted, which he said shows the amount of work and effort he put into football. Now he says he is living his dream. “It’s been great but hard,” said Bilukidi. “It doesn’t matter how much money they pay you. It is not an easy ride. You have to work hard because every week somebody wants to replace you.” He said he’s been successfull because he has come to master what coaches want in players. “You have to show that you know the playbook; that you know what you are doing and what your opponent is doing. The coaches love some-
one who wants to know and study the game,” said Bilukidi. “It is tough but rewarding at the end, especially when you get paid for something that you love to do.” Bilukidi said he hopes Ottawa’s new CFL team that is set to begin play next year as well as the return of football at Carleton University will help inspire more kids to play the game. “It’s big. I feel Ottawa is now taking sports more seriously, which is good because I feel the Americans have understood that sports bring money to a city, a school and that is a reality,” he said. Grade 11 student Smith Léandre who plays on the Franco-Cité’s football team, agreed he can follow into Bilukidi’s footsteps if he works hard. His only worry – football is expensive in Ottawa. “He (Bilukidi) got an amazing chance a lot of us would wish to have,” said Léandre. “His experience tells me that if I can be organized, be disciplined and follow my dreams, I can also be the next star.” Bilukidi was born in Angola, and briefly lived in France and Brazil before settling in Ottawa. He was raised by a single mother, after his father left them when he was four. “My mother has worked so much for me to get where I am. You can never repay back your mother for the things they have done, but you could show she is appreciated by doing things like what I am doing right now,” said Bilukidi. “To those kids going through what I went through, I would say – don’t ever quit. It doesn’t matter the situation you are in, your parents will put you in a right situation.”

Support volunteers honoured Jennifer McKenzie wins NDP nomination in Ottawa Centre EMC news – About 200 dedicated volunteers from Ottawa Community Support Coalition agencies across Ottawa were recognized for sharing their time, efforts, skills and heart at Volunteer Factor Recognition Conference held on Feb. 27 at the RA Centre. The volunteers provide community and home-based professional services to seniors and adults with physical disabilities. “We organized this conference to give back to the volunteers the gift that they give to us,” said Serge Falardea, shared services co-ordinator for the coalition. The coalition helps strengthen and promote home and community support as the foundation of a sustainable health-care system. Though it’s been hard recruiting new volunteers, Falardea said it was important to thank those around for the difference they make each and every day. “They make the lives of others richer by their actions,” he said. He said volunteers provide key services that enable seniors maintain a higher level of independence within their own home. Manotick resident Trevor Wright, a volunteer driver with the Rural Ottawa South Support Services, said it was

Serge Falardea, shared services co-ordinator for the coalition Ottawa Community Support Coalition agencies told volunteers how they make the lives of others richer by their ever day actions. refreshing to be recognized. “I get to meet a lot of fascinating people when I do this, and the comments I get back from my clients is, we wouldn’t be able to stay in our own homes if it wasn’t for the volunteers,” said Wright. The conference was organized to reinforce volunteers’ skills as well as give them new tools to assist them in their volunteer roles. Chantale LeClerc, interim chief executive officer of the Champlain Local Health Integration Network, eastern Ontario’s health authority, said there are about five million
people who volunteer in community not-for-profit sector that provide services to some of the most need and vulnerable people in Ontario. “For every paid person who works in the not-for-profit sector, there are about eight volunteers,” she said. “You can imagine that sector would simply not function without volunteers.” LeClerc added that organizations like the one she is heading would not provide the kind of support and services that are so needed by people in the communities were it not for the volunteers. “You are actually the backbone of that sector.We are very grateful for the work that you do,” said LeClerc. Canadians in 2010 gave two billion hours of volunteer time, which is equivalent to one million full time jobs, said Matthew Beutel representing United Way, one of the organizations benefiting from volunteer work. “Ten per cent of those who volunteered gave 53 per cent of the number of hours that were volunteered,” said Beutel. “The agencies you work for could not do what they do without you. Volunteers are the lifeblood of those agencies.” Beutel has himself worked as a volunteer for 25 years. “What makes us stay is that sense of fulfillment, of satisfaction, connectedness and community,” he said.

EMC news – Whenever the next provincial election is held, the NDP will be fielding a familiar face in the Ottawa Centre riding. Jennifer McKenzie, who serves as chairwoman of the Ottawa Carleton District School Board, won the party’s nomination on Sunday, March 3, during a well-attended meeting at the Bronson Centre. McKenzie beat out former Ottawa city councillor Alex Cullen for the nomination.
The Ottawa Centre riding has been held by Liberal MPP Yasir Naqvi since 2007. “I want to thank Mr. Cullen for our spirited discussions over the past several months,” said McKenzie in a media release. “Together, we have forged a new coalition in Ottawa Centre that’s ready to hold Mr. Naqvi and the tired Liberal government to account for their mismanagement in Ontario.” A former electrical engineer who has served as the public board chairwoman for two years and trustee for Kitchissippi/Somerset for six, McK-

“make environmentalists lament� because their cause is inevitably shunted to the back of the line, in reality a slower economy means lighter emissions and less consumption. Despite its success the event had its rocky moments. Minutes before the event was supposed to start, an Octopus Books employee asked the audience to call 911 to remove a Sun News reporting team, who wanted to film the event. May, however, stepped in, shouting “Only Rob Ford calls 911 for media.� She hugged the reporter and cameraman and asked them to return at the end of the event for one-onone interviews. And minor calamity struck again when just a few minutes into his presentation Rubin tripped and fell off the raised platform that served as their stage. He recovered quickly and the lecture continued smoothly for the rest of the evening.
EMC news - Civic-minded software developers can cash in from across the country with the second edition of the App 4Ottawa contest. There is less money available this time around, but a total of $38,000 entirely sponsored by private companies will be available for tech-savvy Canadians who can take the city’s open data and turn it into a useful application for Ottawa residents. The first iteration of the contest in 2010 offered $50,000 in prize money, but it was all funded by the city. Categories this year include: On the Move, Having Fun, Your City and a new category for data analysis and visualization. Developers can draw on the 63 data sets and 121 data files on ottawa. ca that provide information on everything from childcare facilities to garbage schedules. While techies stand to win money from the contest, Ottawa residents will see a great benefit in the form of useful new applications that make their lives easier and help them take advantage of city services, said IT subcommittee chairman, Beacon Hill-Cyrville Coun. Tim Tierney. “It is a platform for citizens and developers to connect and innovate,� he said. Before IT wizards get to work developing applications for the web and mobile devices, residents can give their two cents in the Idea Jam. Until March 10, residents can submit ideas for the kinds of applications they would find useful at www.apps4ottawa. ca. Developers can refer to that list when deciding what kind of app they will create for the contest. The period for app submissions will run from March 11 to May 12, and a jury of city staff, sponsors and members of the academic community will judge the apps starting May 13, and voting for the People’s Choice award will open during that time. The winners will be announced at a showcase in June. Gaining a suite of corporate sponsors, including title sponsor Microsoft Canada, is a big deal, Tierney said. The sponsors are providing $3,000 for the top prize in each category, and Microsoft is kicking in an extra $2,000 for the best app built on the Microsoft Windows 8 or its Azure platform. Nik Garkuska, open platforms lead for Microsoft Canada, said innovation and community engagement are key for the company.

Mayor’s Report THE MAYOR’S CITY BUILDER AWARD By Jim Watson
MUSEUM OF AGRICULTURE
The Canada Agriculture Museum is looking forward to inviting the public into a new year-round programming space.
Museum ready for spring Steph Willems steph.willems@metroland.com
EMC news - Spring is right around the corner - at least according to the calendar – and the Canada Agriculture Museum is looking forward to inviting the public into a new yearround programming space. Until now, the museum, located in the Central Experimental Farm, had to forgo winter activities due to the lack of heated indoor space, but the recent renovation of a heritage building has changed that. The museum’s new Learning Centre is scheduled to open on May 4, and will allow organizers to offer new activities and programs. “Right now the exhibition spaces
are closed for winter,â€? said spokeswoman Kelly Ray. “With this new building we will be offering programming year-round.â€? The extensive renovation also added modern plumbing and heat, while leaving the exterior appearance relatively unchanged. The original ooring and sturdy wooden beams also remained. “The renovated heritage building ‌ used to be an old mechanics shop,â€? said Ray. “We’ve gutted it and added space to the second oor that allows for a 100-seat lecture hall and three learning labs.â€? Originally constructed in 1930, the building’s new purpose will open up the farm to more visitors looking explore the country’s agricultural roots
through museum programming. The inaugural exhibition in the new Learning Centre will be one that holds a distinct appeal to children. Titled A Piece of Cake, the exhibit invites children and adults alike to learn exactly what goes into baking a simple apple cake. By focusing on how each ingredient in the cake is created, farmed and processed, visitors will gain knowledge of the food chain and will likely appreciate the existence of their neighbourhood grocery store a little more. Other annual events are scheduled to return, starting next month. The museum kicks off programming with its Barnyard Break, running from March 2 to 17, while Easter at the Farm runs March 29 to April 1.
At the beginning of each City Council meeting I have the opportunity to recognize an outstanding volunteer in our city with the Mayor’s City Builder Award. This is an award I created when I became Mayor in 2010 to celebrate those doing great volunteer work and inspire others to get involved in philanthropy as well. In the just over two years since THE AWARD HAS BEEN IN EXISTENCE we have presented the City Builder Award to a wide variety of residents from all across Ottawa. &ROM (ANNAH (EMPINSTALL OF Rideau Goulborn Ward,who at only 13 has raised tens of thousands of dollars for diabetes research, to Pierre Gauthier of Alta Vista Ward, whose work at Brewer Park has allowed its outdoor speed-skating oval to be one of the best in the province, Ottawa has an incredibly dedicated and giving population doing amazing things for our city. We are all privileged to live in this city and I am struck everyday
by the generosity of Ottawa’s residents. Despite the scope in age, causes, and activities that our City Builder Award recipients have spanned so far, one thing that is uniformly true is that they are humble people whose work is not for personal gain but rather for the betterment of their community and their fellow residents. I look forward to presenting the City Builder Award in the coming years to more deserving volunteers in our great city. They may not seek out the spotlight but recognizing the great work of these people is a small token of appreciation for what is often a life’s worth of giving back to our City. If you know someone who you would like to nominate for the Mayor’s City Builder Award please visit http://www. jimwatsonottawa.ca/en/content/ mayors-city-builder-award where you will ďŹ nd more information about the award and the nomination form.

Common ways of contracting bed bugs include: - Staying overnight in bed bug infested accommodations like hotels and shelters - Buying or using infested second-hand furniture - Picking up infested discarded items, such as items that someone has put to the curb for garbage pick-up - Living in a multi-unit housing complex that has a bed bug infestation It is important to take precautions when you are travelling or picking up discarded or used furniture.
Tips to Prevent Bed Bugs While Travelling When travelling, inspect your hotel room for evidence of bed bugs before settling in. Look for live or dead bed bugs, eggs, small black spots (feces), or bed bug skins. • Pull back all bedding at the head of the bed, near the head board, to look for evidence of
bed bugs • Check the underside of the mattress tag • Check the seams of the mattress and the box spring • Examine the back of the head board • Never place luggage on the bed • Examine the luggage stand and place your bag on the stand away from the wall • Do not place your belongings in drawers • Use a flashlight to inspect the closet for evidence of bed bugs before hanging your clothes • Place your shoes in an open area, not under the bed or in the closet • If bed bug evidence is found, report to management and ask for another room When you return home: • Inspect luggage and contents before bringing it into your home • Upon returning to your home, immediately unpack luggage in a location other than the bed room (e.g. bathroom, garage, mud room or foyer) • Launder all clothing with hot water and dry on high heat for at least 30 minutes • A soft bag (e.g. duffel style bag) is an alternative to a hard sided suitcase as it can be placed in the dryer when you get home If you think you may have come in contact with bed bugs during your travels, it is very important to watch and check for signs of bed bugs. Look for signs of bed bugs in the following areas: • Bed frames, head board, mattresses, and box
springs • Chairs and couches • Under area rugs and along the edges of carpets • Behind baseboards
How to address a bed bug infestation: The best way to deal with a bed bug problem is through an integrated pest management approach, which may include: vacuuming, reducing clutter, steam cleaning, sealing cracks and crevices, washing and drying clothes at high temperatures, and the use of a trustworthy professional pest control company.

Put your Best ’Food’ Forward March is Nutrition Month, Ottawa Public Health is focusing on helping you make the best choices by providing you with tips on how to plan, shop for, and cook healthy, delicious meals. At some point, most of us have resolved to eat healthier. Yet, when we get to the grocery store, many of us run into this: • endless aisles of packaged food; • many choices of fresh fruit and vegetables often make for hard decisions; • tempting aromas of the bakery wafts through the store; and • deli counter offers ready-to-eat meals. How does one filter through all of these options to find the best food, for the lowest price, that can be prepared quickly and easily?
Plan Planning meals and writing a grocery list is a great way to save time, money and effort when it comes to prepping meals and shopping for food. Start by planning your main meals for the week. Have you ever made a list of your family’s top ten favourite healthy meals? Having such a list will make meal planning a breeze. Perhaps you’re looking for new recipe ideas? EatRight Ontario’s My Menu Planner will help you create a personalized menu plan, complete with seasonal recipes and a shopping list. Shop When it comes to grocery shopping, reading labels and comparing products is key to making healthy food choices. If ever in doubt (or in a hurry), it’s easy to seek out beautiful colourful food that packs a crunch. If you can, shop for fresh produce whenever possible - you’d be surprised by the extra crunch local vegetables provide! Check out Foodland Ontario to see when your favourite vegetables and fruit are in season. Frozen vegetables and fruits are also a great option and can be just as nutritious as fresh ones, especially in the winter months Another food group that might surprise you with its satisfying crunch - grain products! Let your nose follow that tempting aroma to the bakery where you can find delicious whole grains. Lastly, don’t forget the outer aisles of the grocery store. This is where you will find lower fat 1% or skim milk and lean meats such as skinless chicken and extra-lean ground beef. These items may not be

crunchy, but they are great tasting and good for you! Cook Most of us don’t have the time to cook from scratch anymore. Once you’re home and the groceries are unpacked and to speed up meal preparation, why not try using convenient food items like pre-cut and prewashed vegetables and fruit? To save even more time, try making larger amounts of food and plan to use leftovers for lunches and suppers the next day or throughout the remainder of the week. The extra ground beef could be used in tacos, on pizza or in pasta sauce. Thankfully, cooking from scratch doesn’t have to require lots of work or time in order to be healthy. Experiment to find meal preparation shortcuts that work best for you. Enjoy healthy eating throughout the month of March and beyond. Use these tips to plan, shop and cook your way to delicious, healthy meals for you and your family.

Bed bugs are small insects that usually hide during the day and come out at night to bite human hosts. Adult bed bugs are about the size of an apple seed and, because they hide in small spaces like cracks or crevices, are often very hard to find. As a result, you may have signs of a bed bug problem – bites around your face, neck, upper body, arms and hands that you notice after waking up from a night’s sleep – without having seen a bed bug for weeks. Bed bugs can be a nuisance, but it is important to know that they do not spread disease, nor do they fly or jump.

Donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t let respect for seniors lapse
T
hereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a lot of uncertainty in these fragile economic times. People everywhere are scrambling to make ends meet or formulate plans to secure their financial futures. Back in the 1970s we were sold a fantasy; the dream of a leisure society where one of the biggest challenges faced by municipalities would be offering recreational services for workers enjoying reduced work weeks and seniors lazing comfortably, with time on the hands. A few decades later, we face a far different picture. We have very little to celebrate. Now, workers who carried the hope of
early retirement are being told by the federal government that Old Age Security is changing and there are plans to up the retirement age to 67 years. Many canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t afford to retire early, or even at age 65. Last month, BMO reported that Canadians, on average, managed to save about $9,200 in 2012. And the average total savings amongst Canadians is $122,310. Some who worked hard all their lives will be unable to afford to stay in their homes. Others will be forced by failing health into long-term care homes. They must not be forgotten or shortchanged when it comes to federal and provincial dollars for services.

Not quite what it used to be CHARLES GORDON Funny Town
D
UNEDIN, FL. â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Every old-timer I know says that spring training is not what it used to be. What it used to be was a few fans sitting around in the sun, flamingos flying overhead, scouts smoking cigars while they check out The Kid, the players hanging over the fence talking to the fans and handing out autographs. It was a lazy and informal setting and every fan wanted to be part of it. Maybe it was never like that. Maybe the past was never as romantic as we think. But what todayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s spring training is like is bound to suffer from the comparison. What it is like now, in Dunedin, Florida, in the unromantically named Florida Auto Exchange Stadium, is a large minor league park in any city, with lineups, parking problems, reserved seats and overpriced coffee. Florida Auto Exchange Stadium, where the Toronto Blue Jays practice, reminds you quite a bit of Lynx Stadium in Ottawa, in the days when there used to be crowds. Florida Auto Exchange Stadium holds fewer people, but itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a nice small park and the sightlines are about the same. Where the old-time spring training feel still plays out is in the easy-going nature of the fans, so pleased to be watching baseball again, so pleased to be out in the sunshine that that they can barely bring themselves to boo a bad call, so pleased to be out in the sunshine that even
Boston Red Sox fans have a hard time being unpleasant. The minor-league vibe can also be felt in the informality of the stadium itself, where a leather-lunged vendor can proclaim â&#x20AC;&#x153;ice-cold Canadian beer in an American can made in Chinaâ&#x20AC;? and, when announcing last call, urge customers to â&#x20AC;&#x153;take one home, as a souvenir.â&#x20AC;? So some things havenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t changed, but one thing that has -- and it applies to all sport -- is the recent trend among fans to wear full team uniforms. It used to be that if you went to the (sob!) Expos game, you might wear an Expos hat or an Expos t-shirt. You might see the odd guy wearing a uniform shirt with Raines or Dawson on the back, but it was rare because those things cost $75 and being a fan only went so far. It sure is different now. So seriously does the modern fan take his responsibilities that the uniform shirt, or replica jersey as it is known in the store, is seen in the hundreds, even at spring training where things havenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t begun to get serious. They are listed at $119.99 in Canada. And people arenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t wearing some old replica jersey with Jesse Barfieldâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s name on the back. No, these jerseys, most of them worn by grown men, have the names from the current roster on the back, not only names from the current roster but names of players, like Dickey and Reyes, who arrived in off-season trades and havenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t played a regular season game yet. Of course the wearers of these jerseys, aside from Reyes and Dickey themselves, must surely be Canadians. And you realize how many Canadians there are in this small Florida town when the anthems are played and O Canada is actually sung by a large number of people. Then the Star Spangled Banner is played and what seems to be an equal number of voices is heard. Mercifully, no animosity is detected between the singers of the different songs. But then, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s spring training.

What your kids can teach you about networking BRYNNA LESLIE Capital Muse
H
ave you ever watched a small child enter a new social situation? Perhaps it’s a playgroup or a local park. Depending on the child, she will likely take a while to play on the perimeter and observe the others, before picking someone to play beside. Eventually, the child will interact with the strangers, finding some point of common interest -- the same yellow shovel, a cute flower on both their dresses. She doesn’t mind if they’re boys or girls, black or white. She doesn’t ask about religion or politics. She just finds something in common and makes a new friend. It’s remarkable, really. And according to research on the science of networking, it’s something that adults should be emulating. The sad truth is that people instinctively gravitate toward people like themselves. This is the easiest way to form associations -- we know that people like us will share the same norms. And if they broadly share our opinions about the world, we won’t have to deal with too much conflict. Sounds great, right? The dark side to this is that if we are naturally inclined to befriend people who look like us, share the same religion and politics and maybe even have common cultural backgrounds, we are not as open to befriending people of other cultures, religions and social classes. As a result, our opinions and beliefs are quite narrow because we continually look
for people who support and affirm our long-held beliefs. Even darker perhaps is that children develop the tendency to discriminate as young as age six. It’s around this time they start to notice differences between themselves and other children. Have you observed that when your little boy was a pre-schooler he invited more girls to his birthday parties or played with whichever kid happened to be at the park, regardless

of skin colour, age or clothing? Yet, if you look at his current group of friends, are they -- and their families -- more like him and his family? Are they the same gender? Do they play the same sports? Do they worship at the same church? Probably. And chances are your own friends belong to that same, homogenous circle, too. There are obvious repercussions to this when it comes to creating policies designed to enhance diversity in
workplaces, schools and society. At a more personal level, however, unless we reconcile this tendency to hang out with our own kind, we are also limiting our own ability to grow and innovate. If we want to diversify our network, we have to do it purposely and consciously. The next time you go to an event that you regularly attend - say a meeting or a cocktail party - seek out one person that you’ve never spoken
to before. Ask him questions about himself. Find out why he’s attending the event. Ultimately, try to find something in common with him. Make a point to have a number of interactions like this each month and watch as your network becomes a mosaic. More importantly, however, teach your school-aged children to do the same. Guide them to befriend outsiders that come on the perimeters of their own, established social circles. It’s by teaching our children that we can best shape our future. Let’s make it an open, accepting and innovative one.

Church conversion sparks tensions in Sandy Hill Laura Mueller laura.mueller@metroland.com
EMC news - A heritage-sensitive redevelopment of a former church might be considered a great proposal in another location or at a different time, but the conversion is becoming a “flashpoint” for conflict in Sandy Hill, says its community association president. No applications have been filed with the city, but representatives of the developer held a preliminary meeting on Feb. 28 to present the idea to approximately 75 community members. Architect Robert Martin, who specializes in adaptive re-use of heritage buildings, said the proposal would preserve the mid-century modern church on Mann Avenue at Russell Street and convert it into approximately 62 small one-bedroom and bachelor apartments ranging from around 19 square metres to 34 square metres. The plan would also involve demolishing the church manse and building an extension mimicking the style of the church. The top concern for residents at the meeting was parking. The site is within 600 metres of a rapid transit station and it’s a convenient downtown location travel by walking or cycling, said Katherine Grachuta of FoTenn, a consulting firm hired by the developer, Black Iris Developments. For those reasons Black Iris hopes to include only seven parking spaces, including one dedicated as a spot for a Virtucar (a vehicle-sharing program) instead of the required mini-
mum of 32 parking spaces. Residents at the meeting said there is no question that will force more cars to park on already-crowded streets, but Grachuta said the idea is to attract tenants who don’t have vehicles. The architect, Martin, even suggested that tenants would be required to sign a lease stating they won’t have a vehicle. That lease is a document the city requires in order to approve an on-street parking permit, so it would be up to the city to decide if it would still issue a permit. The developer is proposing some space for businesses such as a yoga studio or sports therapist, as well as rentable meeting space for the community.

LAURA MUELLER/METROLAND
Architect Robert Martin and FoTenn planning consultant Katherine Grachuta speak on behalf of the developer at a Feb. 28 meeting regarding a plan to turn the former St. Clements Church into approximately 60 rental apartments.
STUDENT CONFLICT
The format of the building – rental units – also caused an outcry at the meeting. In a neighbourhood that has struggled with the clash of students living among families, the prospect of attracting more students to live in Sandy Hill was met with outrage. “Sandy Hill is not just a bedroom community for the university,” said resident Leanne Moussa. The influx of students seeking housing in the neighbourhood has led to issues with noise, partying and garbage, residents said. Martin said the high-end quality of the apartments is intended to appeal to graduate students or young professionals. He couldn’t say what the rents might be. Opening the discussion about this latest proposal early, before Black
Iris Developments even approaches the city, will help the community work through these issues, Collmorgan said. “It’s a reasonable proposal, but at this time, it is unacceptable to the community,” he said. Action Sandy Hill originally indicated its support to the developer, but Collmorgan said the negative response from residents has left the group in an awkward position of whether to support the development because it represents good planning and the retention of a neighbourhood landmark, or to side with residents in opposing the development. Rideau-Vanier Coun. Mathieu Fleury said it was too early for him to take a position on whether he’d support the church conversion. But when it comes to the frustra-

tions expressed by residents, Fleury said it’s time for the University of Ottawa to address housing needs for its students and look at constructing new residence buildings, perhaps in partnership with private developers to make it cost-effective. “It’s not to say students aren’t welcome … it’s the negative impact of a concentration of students on an established neighbourhood,” Fleury said. MOSQUE
Adding to the complexity of the issue is an alternate proposal to relocate a local Islamic group to the St. Clements site. The Islamic Society of Sandy Hill, which is currently located on Mann Avenue, put in a bid to buy the St. Clements site. Although that bid was rejected in favour of Black Iris, many residents at the meeting indicated they would prefer to see the Islamic group take over the former church. “It’s a growing religious community,” said resident Jeffery Marder. “There may be a better alternative there.” Mustazibur Rahman of the Islamic Society of Sandy Hill said was heartened by the community’s support for its proposal during the meeting. “There is an emotional impact on the society for the loss of this as a place of worship,” he said. “It would be used for its original purpose … We are still very hopeful.”
EMC news - The city’s young people will have the chance to hit the gridiron this spring when a new flag football league starts up at Carleton University. The Canadian Football Institute is organizing the 5 on 5 Youth Flag Football program, which will start up on May 25. Scott Endicott, the institute’s president, said it is for youth looking to become more familiar with the rules of the game. “The biggest thing about the program is that its non-competitive,” he said. It’s all about having fun.” The sessions will run every Saturday for two hours, with a half hour practice before the games. Games will last 90 minutes. Participants will be divided according to their birth year and will learn agility drills, the basic concepts of the game as well as skills such as hand offs, passing, receiving, defending and flag pulling. “The program offers ongoing learning about the game, tips and tricks for the kids to pick up on,” Endicott said. The teams are coached by volunteers and the league is looking for parents to help out with the teams as well. The program will cost $250 for the season, which lasts for five weeks, but the price ensures each child will have a chance to play every position in the weekly games, he said. The fees include a National Football League jersey, shorts and a t-shirt, youth flag football belts and flags, a league award, a family championship weekend party, workshops and a team and individual photo. The institute hopes this program, which also runs in other cities, will help to raise the game’s profile in Canada. Registration is now open. Visit www.cflonline.ca for more information, to register or to sign up as a coach.

To say that General Motors has hit the ground and streets running in 2013 would be a gross understatement. In 2012 this iconic automaker began an aggressive vehicle launch cadence that carries over to the current year. Approximately 70% of GM nameplates will be redesigned or all-new over the course of the 2012-2013 time frame, including the all-new Chevrolet Trax, Buick Encore, the award-winning Cadillac ATS, Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierra just to name a few. Last year was one of continued transformation for GM Canada, as
they continued through a multi-year strategic plan to build a profitable and sustainable company. One early indicator of success is their productsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; recent residual value improvement. Theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re building better vehicles, building value into their pricing and independent third-party experts are acknowledging these efforts. And the crucial indicators show that the plan is working - for example, opinion scores and residual values are increasing, and customers are responding favourably to new products. By focusing on the core elements of their business, GM is building the value of its brands and products. This means offering their customers a full compliment of the best vehicles, the best technology and the best service.
Young families are finding that while crossovers are quickly eclipsing minivans as multipurpose transportation, GM has the largest selection ranging from the valueleader Chevrolet Traverse up to the luxury refinement of the Cadillac SRX. Truck buyers can select from full lines of both Chevrolet and GMC brands with something to fit every budget and job challenge. Sedans and coupes can be a very personal choice for many drivers and GMâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s lineup in this category means no one has to be satisfied with the cookie-cutter approach that other carmakers offer. SUVâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s are no longer synonymous with gas-guzzling threats to nonurban environments thanks to GMâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s commitment to building fuel efficient vehicles that minimize their carbon footprints. And few could argue with the sparkle of the personnel sports vehicle jewels that are embodied in Camaro and Corvette.

GMâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s dedication to alternative fuels and advance power-trains are clearly demonstrated in the extended-range electrically powered Volt, as well as the gasoline/electric hybrid Malibu, Escalade, and Silverado 1500. And itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s interesting to note that while many of GMâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s competitors feel the need to distance their luxury vehicle line up from their mainstream offerings with completely separate manufacturing and dealership networks, GM proudly integrates Cadillac into their vehicle family knowing this marque can distinguishitself withoutunnecessary infrastructure.

With one of the largest and most successful GM brand dealer networks in the country right here in Ottawa ...why arenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t your feet hitting the ground running to your local GM dealer today?
While individual segment sales leadership can vary from time to time (and GMâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s brands have domi_ated more than their share of awardsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; celebrations), one area in which General Motors has never taken a back seat to anyone is that of providing the widest range of products possible to fit every conceivable individual, family, and commercial need. Entry level vehicles such as Spark, Sonic, and Cruze are proving that young buyers can enter their automotive age without sacrificing quality, safety, or performance.

Public to weigh in on Brewer pond plans Michelle Nash michelle.nash@metroland.com
EMC news - Residents will have their chance to weigh in on plans to take a former swimming pond in Brewer Park and connect it to the Rideau River. The Rideau Valley Conservation Authority will hold a public open house on March 9 at the Ottawa South Community Centre. “We hope to have as many people to come out as possible,” said the authority’s Jennifer Lamoureux, who is helping plan the event. Aside from the conservation authority, the city, Fisheries and Oceans Canada, the Ministry of Natural Resources and Muskies Canada are also working on the proposal. The pond was created as a swimming area, but has not been used for
many years. Now the area is frequented by dog owners, as the area is part of an off-leash dog park. Lamoureux said the plans include maintaining the walking path around the pond with a path across the top of the culvert. Residents will have the opportunity to speak with experts from all the organizations involved about the project. A presentation will begin at 4 p.m.. The proposal to connect the pond to the river was first announced by the conservation authority on Dec. 13. The plan is to cut a notch in the berm separating the pond from the river, allowing water to flow freely between the two bodies. The elevation of the pond will be lowered in some areas, to help more vegetation and wildlife prosper. Lamoureux said the authority will be targeting the species known as
muskellunge, but will make the area a proper breeding ground for any other fish spawning, nursing or feeding at the pond. According to the Rideau Valley Conservation Authority, the quality of fish in the Old Ottawa South portion of the river is high and creating the new connection could create a new fish habitat. The timeline for the project would see construction begin as early as August and no later than November of this year. If the project is approved, the area around the pond would be planted with trees, shrubs and wildflowers. The open house begins at 3:15 p.m. For residents unable to attend, Lamoureux said the conservation authority aims to have a page dedicated to the project on its website, www. rvca.ca after March 9.

Not quite a slam dunk Bytown Sports and Entertainment president Gus Takkale speaks to the media after unveiling the name and logo for Ottawa’s new professional basketball team, the Ottawa TomaHawks, at Ottawa city hall on Feb. 26. Just hours later, Takkale announced he was dropping the name and going back to the drawing board after the TomaHawks received backlash on social media. Takkale said aboriginal groups were consulted. A new name has not been announced before this newspaper’s deadline. The new National Basketball League of Canada franchise will begin playing at Scotiabank Place this fall.

RA Centre to host wheelchair curling championships wheelchair curling, there are no sweepers, there is just team members who take turns releasing the rock with a throwing stick and their skip, who helps them determine the ice conditions before the throw. First-time wheelchair curler, Jodi Hoar, she said it’s all in how you release the rock. “Everything is a variable,” Hoar said. “And every time you throw it is does something different.” Hoar and fellow curler, Sarah Shima decided to give the sport a try as a means to get out of the house in the winter time. “It’s so easy to become housebound in the winter, in a wheelchair,” Hoar said. “This game makes you get out of the house two to three times a week.” At the RA Centre the wheelchair curlers integrate with able-bodied curlers to play. Shima explains that although they are playing with a team who do have sweepers, the opportunity to play with these teams becomes a great learning experience. “To have the chance to play against the others is fantastic, you get to learn so much,” Shima said. Hoar agreed. “And when you win it’s that much sweeter,” Hoar said. Both women say they have quickly become lovers of the game. “The thing I like the most is not to take yourself so seriously, because at first you are terrible, and you are terrible for a long time before you get it right. But when you do, it is awesome.” Hoar said. The championships begin on March 24 and run through the week to March 31. Tickets and more information about the event are available online at www.curling.ca. championships/wheelchair.

EMC news - The RA Centre announced it will play host to this year’s Canadian wheelchair curling championships at the end of this month. The 2013 Wheelchair Curling Championships will welcome 10 teams from across Canada to the RA Centre from March 24-31. The centre is one of the most accessible facilities in the city for wheelchair curling, according to the Canadian Curling Association. Wheelchair curling clubs are welcomed weekly to train, play or learn the sport. The Ottawa Valley Curling Association, the Canadian Curling Association and members of the RA Centre announced the championship’s venue on March 2. “This is possibly the best centre, not only in Ottawa or Canada, but the world, to host wheelchair curling,” said Jamie Eddy of the Capital Curling Wheelchairs Club. Eddy and more than 30 members of his club attended the announcement, which also offered an opportunity to participate in a clinic on how to learn to wheelchair curl. This will be the second time the accessible centre will host the championships. The first was in 2007. More than 80 volunteers will help make sure the week runs smoothly, with everything from ticket sales to registration, said Elaine Brimicombe president of the Ottawa Valley Curling Association.. Brimicombe and Rick Baker, the RA Centre’s general manager, are the co-chairs for the championships, working alongside a committee of 10 people. “We started planning for this event, really since the last time we hosted,” Brimicombe said. “Back then we only had four teams participating but I am pleased this year we will welcome 10 years.” Teams from Alberta, Ontario, British Columbia, Manitoba, Newfoundland and Labrador, New Brunswick, Northern Ontario, Nova Scotia, Quebec and SaskatchMOTORCOACH HOLIDAYS ewan will participate in the weekNEW YORK CITY long tournament.

Glebe traffic survey results are in River Ward City Councillor Conseillère, quartier Rivière
Michelle Nash michelle.nash@metroland.com
PIZZA PARTY FOR MENTAL HEALTH WAS AN OUTSTANDING SUCCESS
EMC news - The results are in for a traffic survey launched by the Glebe Community Association last month. The results, including a long list of priorities and potential measures, were presented by traffic committee chairman Brian Mitchell at the associationâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Feb. 26 meeting. The traffic survey was made available in mid-February on the associationâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s website, allowing residents to weigh in on concerns about things like cycling, traffic flow, traffic calming measures and parking policies. More than 30 per cent of the 1,800 households in the Glebe responded to the survey. The results were compiled by Mitchell, who then created a list of priorities for the associationâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s proposed Glebe Traffic Plan. â&#x20AC;&#x153;This was a really impressive responsive rate,â&#x20AC;? Mitchell said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The results can not do complete justice to volume of the comments received, but certainly the points are here.â&#x20AC;? In the proposed plan there are 18 priority measures discussed, divided into four sections: the minimization of cars using residential streets in the Glebe, encouraging safe cycling to Lansdowne Park, traffic flow and pedestrian safety and parking. â&#x20AC;&#x153;This is to encourage cars to use other options, not just Bronson and Fifth, or Bronson and Holmwood,â&#x20AC;? he said. Some of the priority measures include removing parking from certain streets such as Percy Street, Fifth Avenue and the narrow

Gabriel Pizza generously donated the pizza for the event and additionally donated $1 from each pizza sold at all Gabriel Pizza locations that day. I am strongly committed to raising awareness about mental health issues. Last Wednesdayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s event was a fun way to inspire conversations and to encourage people to reach out for help.

Glebe residents participated in an open house concerning a new parking garage for the Glebe. The garage is one of the mitigation measures to help deal with local parking concerns in the neighbourhood prior to the Lansdowne redevelopment project being complete. The Glebe Community Association has launched its own mitigation measures, including a survey to help better understand the needs and concerns residents have with traffic in the area.
owne Park during peak times, such as during football games, to encourage travellers to choose transit or offering free parking at Lansdowne for day-to-day activities like shopping to encourage patrons to not park in the Glebe. Other suggestions Mitchell presented were to reduce parking in areas close to Lansdowne, such as Holmwood Avenue, from three hours to one to reduce the number of people parking on the streets. Closing Holmwood on the east side of Bank Street to vehicular traffic and turning the current one-way street into a two-way street with access from Adelaide Street was also suggested as a means discourage traffic from the area. Pedestrian safety was addressed in the survey with a request to have traffic signals in the neighbourhood pedestrian-activated and speed bumps installed to control traffic flow. The associationâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s board will vote on this list of priorities in the traffic plan at its next meeting in March and then the list, Mitchell said, would be presented to the Lansdowne Transportation Advisory Committee, a committee created on request by Coun. David Chernushenko to help discuss and mitigate concerns with traffic in preparation of the Lansdowne re-opening, so that committee can formally requests these changes from the city.

EMC news - S. Bear Bergman and j. wallace may not have a traditional family, but they have surrounded themselves with people who care about them. “Don’t look to fit your family into the traditional roles that are there for you,” wallace said. “Do what you need to have people around you that you love.” Bergman and wallace, who prefers his name be spelled in lowercase, spoke at the OttawaCarleton District School Board’s eighth annual Rainbow Youth Forum on Feb. 26. The forum was designed to provide space for the board’s gay, lesbian, bisexual, trans, two spirit, and queer (GLBTTQ) youth. Corinne Davison, instructional coach in the public board, said the day-long series of workshops provides staff and students with the opportunity to enhance their knowledge and their awareness about equity and diversity issues. “The forum is aligned with the (school board’s) efforts to embed character education and cultural proficiency into our daily practice and it encourages safer, more inclusive school environments,” she said. This year’s theme was Our Families and Our Stories. Bergman and wallace are both transgendered and are married with a little boy named Stanley. The pair talked to students about their coming out stories and then about the makeup of their family. “I came out to my family in stages,” wallace said. “First I came out as a vegetarian, which my mother said was a phase and then I came

Bluesfest organizers announce diverse lineup Rush, Tragically Hip, Weezer and Skrillex all returning for another round Steph Willems steph.willems@metroland.com
EMC news - Organizers are promising a diverse musical experience for this yearâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s RBC Bluesfest, with booked performers designed to appeal to fans across a wide musical spectrum. The Bluesfest 2013 lineup was announced Feb. 27 amid great anticipation as well as speculation. Last yearâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s festival garnered criticism for its inclusion of what some concert-goers thought was too many electronic acts and too few bluesy acts. Organizers clearly hoped to change that impression with a something-for-everyone lineup, which includes popular indie/alternative acts like Fun, Tegan and Sara, Alex Clare, Mother Mother, Passion Pit and Weezer, along with classic rock acts like Rush, The Tragically Hip and Grand
Funk Railroad. Electronic fans can still look forward to seeing Skrillex, while blues fans can anticipate a performance by blues legend B.B. King. Even controversial Icelandic singer/actor Bjork is on the bill. In total, over 2,500 musicians will be featured on six stages located at Lebreton Flats â&#x20AC;&#x201C; five outdoors and one 250-seat indoor theatre. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We consider this yearâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s line-up to be one of the best of any across North Americaâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;it reaches out to a wide-ranging demographic with cutting edge performances as well as festival favourites,â&#x20AC;? announced RBC Bluesfest programming director Mark Monahan via a media release. Now in its 20th year, Bluesfest will run over 10 days, starting July 4 and wrapping up July 14. The theme will be â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Take Me to the Riverâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;, and organizers plan to make further announcements regarding confirmed performers in the coming weeks. Voted one of the top music festivals in the world, Bluesfest is supported by all three levels of government. Funding is received from Canadian Heritage, the Canadian Arts Preservation Fund, the Ontario Ministry of Tourism, Culture and Sport, the Ontario Arts Council, as well as the
City of Ottawa. The festival generates several tens of millions of dollars worth of economic activity for the city each year, through accommodations, food and tourism. Entry into the Bluesfest grounds will be by way of transferrable wristbands or single-use day tickets. Admission wristbands went on sale online on Feb. 28 at www.capitaltickets.ca, while day tickets can be bought in person starting March 2 at all Compact Music and Sports Experts locations. All ticket types can be also be purchased by calling Scotiabank Place at 613-599-3267. More information on the RBC Bluesfest 2013 lineup and related events can be found at www.ottawabluesfest.ca.

Local rock band The Bushpilots, led by Manotick resident Rob Bennett, left, performed at Bluesfest last July. This yearâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s lineup includes Rush, The Tragically Hip and Grand Funk Railroad. Organizers went for a â&#x20AC;&#x153;something for everyoneâ&#x20AC;? line-up this year after criticism that last yearâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s festival focussed too much on electronica and not enough on blues.

Annual youth forum focuses on non traditional families Continued from page 21
Wallace described the coming out story to the students at the Confederation Education Centre. It had a surprisingly good ending, with wallaceâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s grandfather saying he was â&#x20AC;&#x153;growing up to be a fine young man.â&#x20AC;? Bergmanâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s parents also experienced what was described as coming out fatigue. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It got to a point where I would say, â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;I have something to tell youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; and they would say, â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;No, we are still dealing with the last thing,â&#x20AC;&#x2122;â&#x20AC;? Bergman said. But in the public forum, Bergman was out and happy to answer any questions. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I felt like it was when I was a kid and I was the only Jewish kid in my class and I would have to give a talk with a yarmulke, some candles and some things my mom baked,â&#x20AC;? Bergman said. So when the time came to talk about LGBTTQ issues, Bergman said it was natural to try and educate people. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I would come out and talk. If there had been official baked goods from the gay community I would have brought them,â&#x20AC;? Bergman said. Along with a friend who had two mothers, Bergman formed one of the first gay-straight alliances in an American school. Now, an author, poet and playwright, Bergman makes a living educating people. wallace is also an educator, having worked for the Halton District School Board. The couple has a three-year-old who sometimes identifies as a boy, sometimes as a girl, and most often as a mid-size dragon. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s comfortable asking people if theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d like to be addressed as a he, she or they,â&#x20AC;? wallace said. Stanley would have been named Stanley whether he was born a girl or a boy. He has a unusual list of relatives, his sperm donor is referred to as Spunkle Joseph and his paternal grandparents as Grand Spunkle and Grand Sparkle â&#x20AC;&#x201C; he even has a fairy gods mother. â&#x20AC;&#x153;He has the longest list of people who are authorized to pick him up of any other kid at
the daycare,â&#x20AC;? Bergman said. Wallace said there have been some challenges with parenting in a transgendered partnership â&#x20AC;&#x201C; complete with a series of phone calls to modify Stanleyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s birth certificate so wallace and Bergman could be listed as his father. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I practically carry around the Ontario Human Rights Code in my pocket,â&#x20AC;? wallace said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;People like it when you have a solution for them that fits with the law.â&#x20AC;? Donna Blackburn, the public school board trustee that represents parts of Nepean and Barrhaven, said she was happy to be able to attend the event.

â&#x20AC;&#x153;There certainly wouldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t have been anything like this when I was going to high school,â&#x20AC;? she said. Blackburn, the schoolâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s first openly-gay trustee, started putting together a team to march in the cityâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Pride Parade two years ago. She invited all the students to join this year. â&#x20AC;&#x153;If you feel safe and secure at school, you will have a better chance at success,â&#x20AC;? she said. After the keynote speeches, students broke off to attend a series of workshops about topics like starting gay-straight alliances, coming out and queer history. Jennifer Adams, Director of education for the board also shared a letter from a mother whose son was in the process of changing his identity to female. â&#x20AC;&#x153;She wanted to thank the principal and a couple of teachers for helping her child through the transition,â&#x20AC;?

Hockey Helps the Homeless hits the ice Charity tournament raises more than $100,000 for city’s most vulnerable citizens “I think it’s really important to get the word out about homelessness in the community.”
Blair Edwards blair.edwards@metroland.com
EMC sports - It’s 9 a.m. on a Friday morning at the Bell Sensplex and Barb Gray waits anxiously in the hallway of the Bell Sensplex. In less than half an hour she and her Freedom 55 Financial teammates will play their first game in the Hockey Helps the Homeless tournament, sharing the ice with Canadian Women’s Hockey League players Haley Irwin and Carolyne Prevost. This is Gray’s second year competing in the charity hockey tournament. “I played last year. It was probably one of the best experiences in hockey in the 10-plus years I’ve played recreational hockey,” she said. “It was a real treat to share the locker room on the ice with two women hockey pros: Caroline Ouellette and Anne-Sophie Bettez.” The players were all treated like professionals as soon as they showed up at the rink, said Gray, with tournament volunteers collecting their equipment bags at the front doors and all participants receiving professionally-stitched jerseys. It was also nice to know the money raised at the tournament would help some of the city’s most vulnerable citizens, with the funds going to the Ottawa Mission and Ottawa Innercity Ministries, she said. “It was very worthwhile to get an in-depth understanding of the needs of the community,” Gray said. Amanda Shaw, a defenceman with the CWHL Toronto Furies, greeted participants at the door of the Sensplex for the March 1 tournament, helping organizers with registration. “I was part of the very first (Hockey Helps the Homeless) women’s event, which was in Toronto,” she said. “It’s an amazing cause.” The tournament helps educate people about some of the causes of homelessness, such as mental illness and abusive home environments, she added.
THIRD-ANNUAL EVENT
Hockey Helps the Homeless is an annual event played in major cities across Canada. It allows hockey enthusiasts to play three games on a team with National Hockey League and CWHL alumni, such as former Ottawa Senators Laurie Boschman and Brad Marsh. Eight men’s teams and six women’s teams suited up for the third-annual Ottawa tournament. For a $150 registration fee, participants received a team jersey with their name on the back and an invitation to a dinner and a silent auction. In addition, every participant was expected to fundraise a minimum of $150. Every year, the event raises between $150,000 to $200,000 in each of the participating cities such as Toronto, Montreal and Vancouver, with 35 per cent of the money used to pay cost of running the tournaments. At the Ottawa tournament, each team played three games with a championship final at the end of the day for both the men’s and women’s sides. The event also featured a game between the NHL alumni versus the CWHL pros. The Ottawa tournament almost didn’t happen last year. Organizers were forced to postpone the event because of a lack of interest from participants and volunteers. But interest in the tournament picked up after the media reported on the charity’s organizing problems, with several volunteers stepping forward, including Kanata’s Dave Edgecomb, co-chairman of last year’s event. This year’s co-chairperson is Judy Thompson, a former chairwoman of the HOPE volleyball charity tournament and several other charities. Thompson said she decided to

This year’s tournament is expected to raise more than $110,000, said Thompson. The final numbers weren’t immediately available. Most of the money is collected through registration fees and individual fundraising, with a smaller amount coming from corporate sponsorship. “We’re certainly over the $100,000 mark,” she said. “It’s a great day for a great cause.” HOMELESSNESS
Organizers were hoping to raise
$150,000 at this year’s event, with the money going to support the Ottawa Mission and Ottawa Innercity Ministries. Last year’s tournament raised $106,000. Almost 8,000 people used Ottawa shelters in 2011, said Ken MacLaren, executive director of Ottawa Innercity Ministries. Organizers of the tournament estimate there are between 150,000 and 300,000 homeless people in Canada, with children and young families comprising a growing segment of the homeless population. “It’s going up,” he said. “There’s been an increase in the number of youth, the number of children and the number of single-parent families. I think the economy has something to do with it.” Ottawa Innercity Ministries received $8,000 last year from the tournament, using the money for its Passion for Youth art program. A group of 20 youth – many with experience living on the street – par-
ticipated in the program and their work was put on display at an art show and auction. “We’re looking to build self esteem in kids,” said MacLaren. “We also work with them with volunteer mentors.” The mentors help the youth participants realize personal goals such as completing high school or getting a job. The Ottawa Mission used its share of the funds raised by last year’s tournament for its food services training program, buying classroom supplies and textbooks. Hockey Helps the Homeless also raises awareness about the problem of homelessness in Ottawa, said Shirley Roy, a spokesperson for the Ottawa Mission. “It draws in people who might not come down to the shelter,” she said. “Hockey Helps the Homeless is a great community event to educate people about some of the issues surrounding homelessness.”

Cafe group supports unemployed professionals Emma Jackson emma.jackson@metroland.com
EMC news - A south Ottawa man is hoping to get unemployed professionals working together. Myles Frosst has spearheaded the Get Working Cafe, a peer-to-peer support group for professionals who are unemployed or underemployed. Each week, the group will meet bright and early on Monday mornings to share leads and skills and to help each other find suitable and fulfilling work. Frosst has been underemployed for the past two years, ever since he lost his job as CEO of the Agriculture Institute of Canada. Three months ago he began to research the kind of services available for people like him: educated, experienced professionals with an abundance of skills, but no one willing to pay for them. He found nothing. For the most marginalized unemployed Canadians, a host of services – government programs, non-profit agencies, community organizations

Myles Frosst works from his “home office” at the Hard Stones Grill in Manotick. The former Agriculture Institute of Canada CEO is starting the Get Working Cafe, a peer-to-peer support group for professionals looking for work, which runs on Monday mornings. and others – exist to help them find work. But for unemployed professionals – the comfortable middle class – there’s very little help to get them back in the workforce, Frosst said. What does exist is lead by career ex-
perts, which Frosst said may not be as effective as pooling resources with peers in the same situation. “I’m a big fan of support groups, of individuals working together to solve problems and find common ground,” Frosst said.
The cafe will meet Mondays at 8 a.m. at St. James Anglican Church in Manotick. While he obviously hopes his peer group will be a success, Frosst knows he’s targeting a particularly private demographic when it comes to financial problems. “The upper middle class are not keen on advertising in a big way that they’re unemployed,” he said. “We’ll give it a couple of months. The goal is to get 20 (people to come).” The two-hour session would allow group members to share leads and skills, keep each other on track and support each other in their search. “One of the main things is the evidence that the others are not alone,” he added. Frosst said unemployment and underemployment among the professional class is not new, but since the recession it has worsened in number of people and the length of time they’re unemployed. “Jobs are just scarce at this stage,” he said. “People are holding on to them.” Bringing people together who share a common cause is not new for
Frosst; in fact, he built his entire career on the concept. Beginning as an economist at Agriculture and Agri-Food Canada in the 1980s and continuing through a number of positions with government departments, non-profit groups and industry organizations, Frosst has spent 30 years finding consensus, building relations and creating coalitions. Recently, he started his own business called Strategic Coalitions that continues the theme. The business brings lobby groups together to work for a common cause. The Get Working Cafe is just a volunteer-based extension of what he’s already been doing, he said. “We are called upon to make use of what we can do to help others,” he said. While the group targets the professional class, Frosst said the group is open to anyone. For more information about the Get Working Cafe call Frosst at 613-897-1601, or e-mail getworkingcafe@stjames-manotick. org.

Magician aims to play with minds at new show Raffle to help Ottawa’s #1 Ranked raise money Soccer Club for charity Michelle Nash michelle.nash@metroland.com
EMC news - Local illusionist and hypnotist Jaymes White is looking forward to playing with his audiences’ minds at his next show at the Arts Court. Paradox, as the show is called, will be a magical night of mind reading and hypnotism on March 9. White, who has been a magician since age six, is looking forward to this new show in particular. “I have been working on this show for two years,” White said. “The cool thing about this show is that the audience is part of the show, with anyone from the audience having the chance
OSU Academy Player Dylan Lawrence headed to St. FX X-Men After playing for the Ottawa South United Force Academy for the past three years, Dylan Lawrence is now ready to move on to the next stage in his life. The Holy Trinity Catholic High School senior recently signed with the St. Francis Xavier X-Men, and will now spend the next four to five years of his life playing Canadian university soccer in Nova Scotia. St. FX Head Coach Graham Kennedy considers the talented OSU product a coup for the X-Men. “We are absolutely delighted to have a student-athlete like Dylan join our program,” Kennedy says. “I am excited about his potential. We are ‘the little school than can,’ and with recruits like Dylan joining our team, we will succeed.” It was at the 2012 OSU Showcase Tournament that X-Men associate coach Miroslav Novak saw Lawrence play. Strangely enough, however, it was St. FX’s women’s team coach Trevor Reddick who first noticed Lawrence at a local soccer event six years ago. Impressed by then 12-year-old Lawrence’s soccer tricks, Reddick casually mentioned to the young boy that he should play for St. FX one day.
Lawrence has parlayed his video editing skills into his own company: Tacklebox Productions. They are currently filming promotional videos for Jumpstart Canada, a program dedicated to helping less fortunate children get involved in sports. While he would like to polish his production skills during his time at St. FX, Lawrence knows that his new teammates will be counting on him to produce on the pitch as well. “Hopefully, I can help them win a championship because it’s been a few years since they’ve won one,” highlights the playmaking midfielder. “My long-term dream is to play in the MLS, and I hope my route through St. FX will help me reach it.” Lawrence credits his time at OSU for giving him the foundation to reach for the next level. “I loved playing for the OSU. They treated me really well and gave me every opportunity I could get to help me get a scholarship and it paid off,” explains the captain of the ’95 Force boys’ team. “Anybody who is planning to play at the university level, they provide you with opportunities like tournaments and showcases that get you the chance to be seen by university coaches.”

In fact, the recent Carleton University graduate obtained a psychology degree so he could better understand how the mind works -- all to help bend reality and people’s perceptions even further. “It’s all about getting into people’s mind and finding out ways to influence people to think of something I want them to,” White said. He would eventually like

to take his show on the road, something that is getting closer to reality. He is currently in talks with several Canadian colleges and is hoping to organize a campus tour for this fall. The March 9 show is sold out, but those who do not have tickets needn’t worry, as White promises another show will take place sooner, rather than later, citing the fact this show sold out so quickly. “It was crazy, it sold out in three days,” he said. “I didn’t know it was going to go as fast as it did.” The event is part of the magician’s ongoing efforts to help raise money for various causes. The evening will consist of selling raffle tickets, with prizes supplied by White’s sponsors and at the end of the performance he will raffle off Freddy to one lucky audience member.

Lawrence’s soccer skills have gotten him even more attention recently as he is the co-star of two Youtube videos that feature Lawrence and teammate Stephen Veenema performing tricks around various locations in downtown Ottawa. The first video has over 14,000 views, while the second was officially sponsored by Ottawa Tourism.

to participate.” Written by White and some friends, Paradox is a play on the mind, with a focus on the audience members, he said. He will combine hypnotism and showmanship to make what he calls crazy effects to wow the audience. Those who have the opportunity to go on stage will be chosen randomly by White, who will do so by tossing a small voodoo doll named Freddy into the crowd. This is to ensure he plays no part in choosing his participants. White could then do a number of different tricks, such as getting a participant to think the way he wants them to, connect their mind with that of another participant or performing magic tricks. “It’s all about creating the impossible and making people believe,” he said. White got his start in magic through books he checked out from the local libraries. Ever since, he said he’s turned into
The issue could be dealt with during an update to the city’s pedestrian plan that’s happening this year as part of the Liveable Ottawa consultations, but Hume said he’s not sure he wants to expend “political capital” to argue for the sidewalk’s removal from city plans. Hume said Riverview Park isn’t alone – the city has planned sidewalks on dead-end streets in many communities. Residents in the area would much rather see sidewalks constructed on Saunderson Drive, Hume said. The Saunderson sidewalk project is lower down the city’s list and the project would cost more because it is a longer section of street and it’s a more complex project, Hume said. The preliminary price tag for that project is $500,000. Nanda said a push to put sidewalks on Saunderson is news to him. The community association is more focused on trying to get sidewalks on the west side of Russell Road between Haig Drive and Industrial Avenue. The community association is supportive of active transportation and has written to the city to fully fund its pedestrian and cycling plans. At the very least, Hume said the community would prefer to have the north and south sections of Botsford Street get sidewalks at the same time. Hume’s motion asked for the project to be delayed until that is possible. The work likely wouldn’t happen for at least a couple of years, Hume said.

Smith still working on training school in Thunder Bay Jennifer McIntosh jennifer.mcintosh@metroland.com
EMC news - For a man who has raised millions for charity, Dave Smith didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t grow up with very much. Sitting in the Your Family Restaurant on Merivale Road, where Nateâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Deli has moved, the 80-year-old recounted stories of sleeping sideways on the bed to make sure there was enough room for all the kids. And even though they didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t have a lot, Smith was always taught the importance of giving. â&#x20AC;&#x153;A lot of the time in the winter my mother would come home without a coat, and she would just say, â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;someone needed it more than me,â&#x20AC;&#x2122;â&#x20AC;? Smith said. And while there is now a street named after him in a development in Riverside South, Smith shows no signs of slowing down. He said if everything goes as planned, shovels will be in the ground for a new residential drug treatment centre for youth in rural Kanata in the next year. He is also working on a technical, vocational school for aboriginal youth near Thunder Bay. Smith said young people are the future. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Small things can really make a

day, made a move to Nepean this year. The centre, which was on City Place Drive, has now moved to Rideau Heights Drive near West Hunt Club Road and Prince of Wales Drive. The organization helps to provide essentials to low-income families. Smith said they offer everything from furniture to toiletries at the lowest prices possible. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a great service. A lot of families come to Canada with nothing and this helps them get started,â&#x20AC;? Smith said. Smith chairs the organizationâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s board. He said it takes hundreds of volunteers to do the work to gather donations, make deliveries and man the store. â&#x20AC;&#x153;There are a lot of people out there who want to help,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Ottawa is a great community.â&#x20AC;? While still planning the vocational centre near Thunder Bay and a new treatment centre in the same area for young aboriginal people with addictions issues, Smith is doing work in Afghanistan and here in Ottawa. When asked if he might slow down anytime soon, he shook his head no. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s still a lot of work to be done,â&#x20AC;? he said.

Smith said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t take long to figure out it was his son, and I told him I would get back to him.â&#x20AC;? A few days later, Smith was talking at a local school and when he was finished, he asked students to come and join him on the stage if they knew someone who had a problem with drugs. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The stage filled up pretty fast,â&#x20AC;? Smith said. And that was the beginning of the Dave Smith Youth Treatment Centre. After lobbying the Ministry of Health and Long-Term Care, and having kids speak on Parliament Hill, where Smith was known for catering events, the day centre opened in 1993. Now Smith is anxious to begin expansion work on the residential centres in Carp and Carleton Place. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The day centre was alright, but from the beginning I wanted to have a residential facility,â&#x20AC;? Smith said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We would close down at the end of the day and then the kids would be back with their friends and in their neighbourhoods. It was a challenge.â&#x20AC;?

Brighten up your winter meals with fresh citrus fruits EMC lifestyle - It may be cold and bleak outside, but your meals don’t have to be. Preparing meals with a sweet splash of citrus not only adds flavour, but also nutrients that can help energize you during the dreary months. “While many fresh fruits and vegetables are out of season in winter, Florida grapefruit is at its peak,” says registered dietitian Lydia Knorr. “Citrus fruit and juices have tremendous flavour, provide your body with a natural boost in energy and are an excellent source of vitamin C.” As a flavour agent and source of essential nutrients, citrus can bring sunshine to any meal. This recipe incorporates citrus fruit and juice for a Thai chicken and grapefruit noodle salad. INGREDIENTS
• 375 g (12 oz) boneless skinless chicken breasts, thinly sliced • 45 ml (3 tbsp) canola oil, divided • 30 ml (2 tbsp) grapefruit juice • 30 ml (2 tbsp) Thai red curry paste • 15 ml (1 tbsp) grated fresh ginger, divided • 15 ml (1 tbsp) fish sauce • 15 ml (1 tbsp) rice vinegar • 1 ml (1/4 tsp) granulated sugar
• 180 g (6 oz) rice stick noodles • 2 ruby red grapefruits, peeled and segmented • 1 small red bell pepper, thinly sliced • 250 ml (1 cup) bean sprouts • 50 ml (1/4 cup) chopped peanuts • 1 green onion, thinly sliced • 25 ml (2 tbsp) chopped fresh mint

PREPARATION
Combine chicken with 15 ml (1 tbsp) of the canola oil, grapefruit juice, curry paste and 10 ml (2 tsp) of the ginger. Coat evenly and set aside. In a bowl, whisk the remaining oil, ginger, fish sauce, vinegar and sugar. Set aside. Cook the noodles for two minutes, then drain, rinse and place them in bowl. Add the grapefruit, red pepper, bean sprouts, peanuts and green onion. Drizzle with dressing, toss well and set aside. In a skillet over medium-high heat, stir fry chicken for about eight minutes, until it is no longer pink. Spoon over noodles and toss. Sprinkle with mint before serving. Makes four servings.
Maple Cream Pie If you love the flavour of real maple syrup, this pie is for you. With a rich maple cream filling slow cooked with real ingredients like 100% pure Canadian maple syrup, milk and butter, it tastes just like homemade with a light tender crust. Our pie of the month is only here for March, so pick up one today, because once they’re gone, they’re gone.

EMC news - Do your windows have proper locks? Could your prize-winning rose bushes be the perfect hiding spot for a burglar? Manotick’s community police officer Const. Arun Daniels wants home owners to answer these questions and more with a home security inspection, which is offered free through the city’s community police centres. Home security inspections allow community members to take an active role in making their homes less susceptible to criminal activity, Daniels said. At the request of a home owner, trained volunteers will visit a home - be it a house, condo, apartment or other living arrangement - to assess how residents can make their home safer. “People like privacy around their homes but that also gives someone looking to break and enter some privacy,” Daniels said. “If you can’t see the front of your home clearly that offers opportunity for suspects to hide.” The audit is based on a checklist, and participants receive a booklet that identifies safety improvements, provides crime prevention tips and promotes other crime prevention initiatives offered by the police service, like Neighbourhood Watch. Members of the public can arrange an inspection by contacting the local community police centre at 613-236-1222 ext 2314.

s far as Father was concerned, Mother had taken this Lent business too far. Giving up meat herself every Friday all year was one thing, but taking it off the menu for everyone during Lent was another kettle of ďŹ sh altogether. No meal was complete without a good platter of meat on the table, according to Father, and now Lent was here, whatever that meant. Not only did Father think Motherâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s idea of everyone giving up meat on Fridays was like asking a farmer to give up chores, but now she was pressing everyone to give up something they loved for the entire few weeks of Lent. She suggested Father might want to give up his pipe: as if to show his deďŹ ance, he put a match to it, which was already going at full steam. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It will be good discipline for the children,â&#x20AC;? Mother said and she asked us to think long and hard at what each of us could sacriďŹ ce. Mother said if we wanted, we could give up something and not tell anyone else what it was. It would be our secret between us and God. Well, my sister Audrey wanted everyone to know she was giving up butter. Audrey loved butter, especially since Mother started adding a few drops of yellow colouring to what came out of the churn -- before that it was as white as the driven snow. She was going through her religious phase and Audrey fell right in with
Congratulations to Eric Currie! On February 19, Pierre Poilievre, Member of Parliament for Nepean-Carleton, was at the Osgoode Public School, where he presented Eric Currie with a Queen Elizabeth II Diamond Jubilee Medal. The medal was awarded in recognition of Ericâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s work in raising awareness about diabetes. The Queenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Diamond Jubilee Medal was created to celebrate Her Majestyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s accession to the Throne 60 years ago. Investigating public complaints fairly and independently On March 5 I brought forward a motion asking the Board of Trustees to support writing a letter to the Premier of Ontario and leaders of the ofďŹ cial opposition to ask them to re-introduce and support legislation to modernize the Ombudsman Act in order to permit the Ontario Ombudsman to investigate public complaints involving school boards as well as universities, hospitals and municipalities (the â&#x20AC;&#x153;MUSHâ&#x20AC;? sector). Many provinces have moved in this direction. It would provide third party recourse for parents when conďŹ&#x201A;icts with a school board are left unresolved and a fair and independent mechanism to review school board adherence to provincial policies or directives, such as with respect to bullying, special education, student safety, transportation etc. In 2011-2012, the Ombudsman received 119 complaints and inquiries about Ontarioâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s school boards. None of them could be dealt with. Extra-Curricular Activities I am pleased that the Ontario Secondary School Teachersâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; Federation (OSSTF) has asked its members to suspend their political action related to extra-curricular activities. Since these activities were withdrawn over 200 community volunteers at the secondary and elementary school level went through our selection process to help with extra-curricular sports, clubs and activities. It is now time to bring our secondary teachers and volunteers together to provide these activities, which will enhance the extra-curricular services provided to the boardâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s student body. With respect to the Elementary Teachers Federation of Ontarioâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s (ETFO) decision to continue its political action against the same activities, I am disappointed that the federationâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s leadership has chosen this path, a course that only serves to further punish our youngest learners. The Ontario government and the OSSTF have recommitted themselves to having a more respectful dialogue and both have shown some good-will in an effort to start talking again. I encourage EFTO to do the same.

Mary Cookâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Memories Motherâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s orders that we ďŹ ve children think long and hard at what we could give up in the name of Lent. My brother Earl wanted everyone to know he was giving up whittling. Audrey thought it had to be something you ate, so Earl switched to turnips. Emerson, who said he was giving up pie, lasted one meal, so he switched to gum. His chances of getting a package of gum were pretty slim back in the 30s, so that wasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t much of sacriďŹ ce for Emerson. Everett loved dill pickles and he told everyone within earshot he wouldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t be taking another dill until Mother told him Lent was over. Now, I loved my food. I ate every meal as if it was my last one on earth. I hated head cheese and blood pudding, but this time of year our supply of both had pretty well run out. I had no idea what I could give up that wouldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t seriously affect my mealtimes. I thought long and hard, but couldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t come up a thing. I took my problem to my older and much wiser sister Audrey, who was always able to come up with a solution to just about anything that ailed me. She suggested I give up

either butterscotch discs or baloney, both of which she knew I loved with a passion, ever so much more that licorice pipes and humbugs which Mr. Briscoe often thrust in my hand at his general store. Little did he know, I either used them to bribe my brother Emerson or tossed them into the nearest shrubbery on the way home -- I had no taste for either. Both of them always made me think of Cascara, which Mother had great faith in, and whether we needed it or not we were often made take a heaping spoonful â&#x20AC;&#x153;just in case.â&#x20AC;? In case of what I had no idea! I knew perfectly well if I gave up baloney or butterscotch discs, I wouldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t last a week. I asked my sister Audrey if God would mind if I kept my sacriďŹ ce to myself. If it would be diluted if I gave something up, and told no one. Audrey said she would think about it. Finally she said: â&#x20AC;&#x153;I see no reason why you have to tell anyone. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s between you and God.â&#x20AC;? I said a silent thank you for this bit of information. I decided there and then to give up licorice pipes.

Awards salute seniors for volunteering EMC news - A local senior care organization is looking to recognize older adults who have volunteered their time this year to charities. Home Instead Senior Care, based in Kanata and serving the Ottawaarea, is sponsoring the 2013 Salute to Senior Service award program, which honours adults 65 years and older who volunteered 15 or more hours a month to a non-proďŹ t. â&#x20AC;&#x153;So many organizations rely on seniors,â&#x20AC;? said Lesley Sullivan, owner of the Home Instead Senior Care ofďŹ ce located in Kanata. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We want to honour them and recognize them.â&#x20AC;? Older adults are more likely than other age groups to volunteer 170 hours or more annually, according to the 2007 Canada Survey of Giving, Volunteering and Participating. â&#x20AC;&#x153;These volunteers account for 78 per cent of all volunteer hours annually â&#x20AC;&#x201C; yet too often these selďŹ&#x201A;ess individuals remain unnoticed,â&#x20AC;? said Sullivan. People can nominate themselves or others and the submission period is open until March 31, with online voting taking place from April 15 to 30. The winners will be announced in May. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It is a national program; there will be a provincial winner chosen and a national winner chosen as well,â&#x20AC;? said Sullivan. The provincial winners will be determined by online votes and a panel of judges will select the top national volunteer. Home Instead will host a local event to honour any nominees that come from the Ottawa area. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m hoping that weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re going to have the provincial winner,â&#x20AC;? Sullivan said. Home Instead is working on contacting the many organizations in the city that rely on volunteers to let them know they can also put forth nominations. Meals on Wheels, one of the nonproďŹ ts Home Instead contacted, helps provide food to people who are unable to shop for themselves. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Volunteers make it happen at Meals on Wheels; without their contribution, we would never be able to get the food to the clients,â&#x20AC;? said Baudouin St-Cyr, executive director of the not-for-proďŹ t, in an email. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Volunteers deliver the food into the clientsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; hands day in, day out, no matter the weather conditions. They provide the nutrition and the caring contact. Without their contribution, Meals on Wheels could not exist.â&#x20AC;? For more information or to nominate a volunteer, visit SalutetoSeniorService.ca or mail a nomination form to Salute to Senior Service, P.O. Box 444, Toronto F, Toronto ON, M4Y 2L8.

Library hopes to sell books on website New program would raise revenue for the library Laura Mueller laura.mueller@metroland.com
EMC news - The Ottawa Public Library wants to become the second library in Canada to let people buy – not just borrow – e-books. On Feb. 11, the library board endorsed a plan to partner with an ebook publisher to put a purchase button for e-books on the library’s website catalogue. It’s a way for the library to earn revenue since the library would get a percentage of each sale that started with the library’s website, which currently gets about 950,000 visits per month. “It’s a bit of a departure from our usual mode of service,” said Jennifer Stirling, the library’s manager of system-wide service and innovation. Customers already use the library to discover books they want to read, Stirling said. If an item isn’t in stock at the library, some people turn to e-book retailers or bookstores to purchase the item. But right now, the library receives no benefit from serving as the conduit for that purchase. Launching a retail affiliate program, as it’s called, would enable the

library to benefit financially from the role it already plays in helping people discover books, Stirling said. Library must still negotiate an agreement with publishers and vendors, so the amount of potential revenue is unknown. The library would likely receive between three and four per cent of sales that originate with customers clicking through from biblioottawalibrary.ca. That’s a firm number set by publishers, but it didn’t impress some board members. “We’re acting as a sales agent. We’re direct advertisers,” said Kanata North Coun. Marianne Wilkinson, who sits on the board. “Four or five per cent is very low.” Stirling emphasized that the project is a pilot and it might provide insight that will help the Canadian Urban Library Council to negotiate a larger percentage jointly with other cities. But there is another benefit for the library. Publishers are extremely reluctant to sell e-book licenses to libraries because it cuts into profits, so libraries like Ottawa’s cannot offer many bestsellers in e-book form, Stirling

ENTERTAINMENT
said. In some cases, publishers only make a small percentage of their ebooks available for licensing by public libraries – or none at all. Ottawa’s library hopes partnering through an affiliate program will make publishers more open to providing e-book licenses. “The public doesn’t understand the challenge we face with digital (materials),” said Barrhaven Coun. Jan Harder, the chairwoman of the library board. “Publishers are so threatened because we are a public library and don’t charge … so they are just not making (e-books) available to us.” Toronto is also planning to launch a “Buy Now” program over the next few weeks, said spokeswoman AnaMaria Critchley. Toronto will receive five per cent from sales of both print and e-books from Indigo that originate through the Toronto library’s online catalogue. The Toronto Public Library’s website receives 1.6 million visits per month. Leveraging those visits could provide new revenue and give library customers access to a larger volume of material while still allowing them to support and invest in their library, says a Toronto library board report from last June.

Snowboarder aims for top-3 finish at worlds blair.edwards@metroland.com
EMC sports- An Ottawa woman is looking to improve on her top-10 finish at last year’s junior world snowboarding championship. “I’m hoping to get top-three this year, that’s my goal,” said Natalie Allport, who placed ninth in last year’s competition, first among Canadian women. This year’s junior world championship is being held in Erzurum, Turkey from March 4 to 10. She headed into the competition fresh off an injury to her heel suffered in a world cup
competition in January, which didn’t allow her to train for the past month. “Hopefully it will come back to me quickly and I can get a podium result,” she said. Allport has a busy month ahead of her: after finishing the junior worlds, the 19-year-old plans to head for Calgary, where she will compete in the Snow Crown - Canadian Snowboard Championships from March 10 to 17. But the biggest competition is five years down the road, she said. “My main long-term goal is to be on the podium in 2018,” said Allport, who hopes to compete
in the slopestyle competition – a course of snowboard obstacles such as jumps and rails – at the Winter Olympic Games in Pyeongchang, South Korea. Slope snowboarding will make its debut in the 2014 Winter Olympics in Sochi, Russia. “I think it’s a challenge,” she said. “It takes a lot of work to master different tricks and different runs. It’s a bit of an adrenaline thing. You’re doing 60-foot jumps, so it’s an extreme sport.” The International Olympic Committee’s executive board announced in February the addition of ski and snowboard slopestyle to the Winter Olym-
pics starting in 2014. Slopestyle contestants are judged on style, the difficulty of the tricks and the overall flow in the run. Allport has a long and expensive road ahead of her – she estimates it costs between $10,000 to $20,000 a year on travel, training and on competition fees, money earned working full time over the summer and collected from sponsors and government grants. Allport took up the sport of snowboarding eight years ago at a “small hill” at Mount Pakenham. She now trains with the Simple Snowboarding team in Barrie, Ont.
“The best part of my job is when I succeed at making a significant difference in the life of a child or youth.”
CHILD WELFARE AWARENESS MONTH The Canadian Association of Social Workers celebrates National Social Work Week to recognize social workers contribution to society. The theme this year is: “Restoring Hope: The power of Social Work”. Throughout the month of March, the Children’s Aid Society of Ottawa (CASO) is taking this one step further and bringing awareness to all workers associated with child welfare. These individuals play an important role in ensuring children, youth and families of our community are kept safe and secure. They are involved with the planning and delivery of a variety of services, such as: family support services, advocacy, foster care placement, and child protection, to name a few. They seldom get the recognition they deserve, in fact, if things go well, we never hear about it. There are many committed individuals whose efforts have made positive changes in the lives of countless vulnerable children and families.

Ottawa to cheer for yellow and black Brier Dodge brier.dodge@metroland.com
EMC sports - A month after head coach Dan Churchâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s father passed away from cancer, the national womenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s hockey team announced they would don yellow and black for their first game of the world championships in Ottawa. The Livestrong jersey celebrates a cancer charity, Livestrong, started by cyclist Lance Armstrong. Agosta said the team was quick to embrace the third jersey, because everyone has been affected by cancer at some point, not just Church. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I think weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re doing something for everybody who has lost somebody whose near and dear to them,â&#x20AC;? she said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;When we found out about it, we were very excited to hop on board. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s going to make the atmosophere that much better.â&#x20AC;? She also said sheâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s excited to be coming back to Ottawa, which she described as â&#x20AC;&#x153;hockey cityâ&#x20AC;? after playing at Scotiabank Place in 2010. She thinks Ottawa will break records again, after setting a womenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s hockey game attendance record after 16,347 fans came out to watch Canada play the U.S.A. on Jan. 1, 2010. The womenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s world hockey

on April 2, the special third jersey will be worn. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Hockey Canada has changed co-
lours of jerseys before, but theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve never changed the colour of the logo, so this is a very special time,â&#x20AC;? said player Meghan Agosta. Agosta, along with teammates Gillian Apps, Jayna Hefford and Tessa Bonhomme were at SportChek at Place dâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;OrlĂŠans Shopping Centre on Feb. 27 to unveil the jerseys. Livestrong Foundation president and CEO Doug Ulman was in Ottawa for the presentation, and highlighted one of the programs that Livestrong funds, called cancer transitions. He said the transition program helps cancer survivors â&#x20AC;&#x153;find the new normalâ&#x20AC;? after they finish treatment. â&#x20AC;&#x153;As a cancer survivor myself, I can tell you the impact these programs have,â&#x20AC;? Ulman said. Church said that besides losing his father, he had a player at York University diagnosed with cancer just over a week into the season. â&#x20AC;&#x153;She said to me, â&#x20AC;&#x153;Coach, I canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t play this year, Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve just been diagnosed with cancer.â&#x20AC;&#x2122; Sheâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a cancer survivor, won her battle,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The grace and dignity she had during her fight with cancer had â&#x20AC;Ś a strong impact on me (and) all the athletes that she played with for many years.â&#x20AC;?

Bringing life back to Dundonald Park Community health centre on the right track with programming: report Laura Mueller laura.mueller@metroland.com
EMC community - Spending money to repair Dundonald Park is at the top of a new list of recommendations. But with since funding is available, local activists are on the right track by offering programs that foster a sense of community in the park instead, the report says. The Centretown green space has been the focus of a year-long study by consultants from 8-80 Cities’ Place for People Project. “We know that creating a strong sense of community ownership and stewardship is vital for the success of any public space,” said Emily Munroe of 8-80 Cities in a press release. Building stronger social ties in the diverse community is a major goal of the Centretown Community Health Centre’s new push to offer programming in the park, which began last year. Data collected by 8-80 Cities shows that 75 per cent of park users spent less than five minutes at Dundonald Park, and 57 per cent of users just walked through the park. The report recommends finding ways to encourage people to linger and use the park in different ways. A significant number of ideas – 41
per cent – relate to developing community activities and programs in the park. The ongoing Centretown Movies outdoor film screenings was an idea 8-80 Cities loved and encouraged to continue. Many of the report’s suggestions are already happening in the park, indicating the health centre is on the right track. Things like theatre and musical performances, neighbourhood picnics and yoga and tai chi classes have been offered in the past, and those should be expanded, the report recommends. Thirty per cent of respondents strongly agreed that the park is not well-used in the winter, so 8-80 Cities suggests that a winter festival might be a nice addition to get people out in the colder months. Offering snowshoe and ski lessons is another option. Food-based ideas were popular with people consulted, so the report recommends trying things like offering baking classes (an outdoor oven would be needed) and creating a community garden. The report also recommends finding ways to encourage people to take advantage of the park for spontaneous activities such as nature walks, bird watching and water play on hot
days. The full report can be found at www.8-80cities.org. The key to making all those lofty plans a reality is making a plan for implementation. The consultants from 8-80 Cities have done it elsewhere and suggest that a bartering system might work well for Dundonald Park. Bartering would encourage people to provide their skills or services in Dundonald Park in exchange for points that could be used for discounts on city services or at local businesses. “Lack of maintenance and disrepair sends the message that the park is neglected, which only encourages users to treat the park poorly,” the report states. Basic repairs and improvements should be completed within six months, according to 8-80 Cities. Somerset Coun. Diane Holmes was away an unavailable for comment when the report was released, but a statement from the Centretown Community Health Centre suggests new funds won’t be forthcoming. “In the current environment where funds for infrastructure changes are limited, Centretown CHC will continue to work with the City of Ottawa and community partners to improve the park in creative ways and within existing resources,” the statement reads. City funds to fix up sagging benches and rickety play equipment are limited. So why not enlist chil-

The workshop is the type of event the centre should host more of to boost community involvement in the park. dren to help paint benches? That’s one suggestion in the report aimed at both improving the appearance of the park and providing an activity. The report also paints a picture for how the rectangular space could be improved if money became available. The park is already bisected into triangular quarters by X-shaped pathways running to each corner. The centre could be used as event space, 8-80 Cities suggests. The north side of the park at Somerset Street would be well-suited for pop-up activities such as yoga, a farmers’ market or community gatherings, while the east side would make for good open space for sports and other activities. The west side already has playground equipment, so it’s a natural family/ play area. The south side is ideal for facility
space – that’s things like washrooms, exercise equipment, storage, barbecues or bake ovens. A bike path and running track circling the perimeter of the park would be another good addition, the report says. Ottawa police identified Dundonald Park as one of the least safe places in the city, and residents consulted by 8-80 Cities agreed. Only 24 per cent of respondents strongly agreed that the park is safe. Improving that perception should be a key priority, the report states. That can be accomplished through a combination of encouraging positive acitivities in the park and a more direct approach to dealing with disruptive behaviour such as alcohol and drug use. That should be done through a collective effort of the police and outreach workers, the report says.

Ottawa’s latest pro soccer club to keep Fury name eddie.rwema@metroland.com
EMC sports – Ottawa’s North American Soccer League franchise will be called the Ottawa Fury FC, owners announced at press conference on Feb. 25 at Algonquin College. The decision follows a team-naming contest that generated more than 4,000 suggestions. Club president and owner John Pugh said they saw no reason of changing the name that is already associated with success. “After so much deliberation, we decided that no name surpassed that of the Fury, which already associates Ottawa across Canada and the United States with the winning culture, success on the field, stability off the field and an attractive brand of soccer,” he said amid cheers
from fans who waited eagerly for the announcement. The only change imbedded in the name is FC, for football club. “Football is the name of the world’s game and yes, we are a football club,” said Pugh. The franchise will commence league play in 2014 after the major stadium reconstruction project at Frank Clair Stadium at Lansdowne Park is completed. Pugh said their goal is to provide exciting, affordable professional soccer to passionate fans in a soccerfriendly new stadium. “This is Ottawa’s team and it is really important for our fans to feel and be part of it,” he said. “The next 12 months will prove very exciting as we continue to build the Ottawa Fury FC franchise.” NASL Commissioner Bill Peterson said the hard work
that has been put into the project will ensure success both on and off of the filed for many years to come. “We are very proud as part of the NASL to have Ottawa part of this league and we are looking forward to working together with the community and the club to create a lot of excitement and a lot of passion in the city,” he said. Peterson said the NASL has grown to 12 teams including Ottawa. “Everyone is working very hard and is excited about the momentum we are generating throughout North America and we are very optimistic about the future of the league and about our future here,” he said. He said they expect more than 800,000 people to attend the NASL games in 2014 once new teams are onboard. Indianapolis and Virginia will join in 2014.
“We continue to see growth and excitement and we expect to see Ottawa be part of that,” said Peterson. Pugh also announced that the Ottawa Fury FC will soon launch a campaign for Ottawa soccer fans to assist their branding team in the selection of the official logo the team will wear. “Fans are part of the entertainment at soccer games,” he said. Orléans Coun. Bob Monette said the partnership between the city and Ottawa Sports and Entertainment Group to revitalize Lansdowne Park and its stadium means “we will have a premium venue to watch the stars of the game take to the field.” He said the presence of the NASL team in Ottawa will encourage more youth to try the game and inspire them to be stars of tomorrow. “Ottawa is a good fit for a

We look forward to welcoming the new team at Lansdowne Park in 2014,” said Monette. The Fury women’s program won the W-League North American Championship last
July, while the men’s program has captured division titles in three of the past four seasons, and Fury’s youth academy has seen its boys program ranked first in North America over the past two years among Super Y-League clubs.

Manotick’s Hollerado releases second album Emma Jackson emma.jackson@metroland.com
EMC news - Despite Hollerado frontman Menno Vertseeg’s insistence that releasing a second album is “no big deal,” he and his bandmates have tackled some big themes inside White Paint. The album launched Feb. 26 following the release of the band’s single Pick Me Up. It’s been four years since the pop-rock foursome - three of whom grew up together in Manotick - released their first album, Record in A Bag. Since then, the band has matured: in age, of course, but also in life experience. “The last album I wrote the lyrics in my early 20s and between now and then a lot of time has passed,” Versteeg said. “It’s the age where you make a lot of mistakes and you learn from them and you get a new perspective on things.” Although most of the album’s 11 songs feature the upbeat, punchy vibe Hollerado fans love, the lyrics behind the sound are much more soul-searching than the previous album.
“The first album was celebration for celebration’s sake,” Versteeg said. “This time I wanted to celebrate how lucky we are that life even exists, like what are the odds and look at the wonder of the planet and be grateful.” Some songs also have deeply personal meaning. While working on the album, Versteeg’s grandfather died and Versteeg wrote the tune So It Goes to honour his grandfather’s time as a Dutch resistance fighter during the Second World War. His grandfather was caught and sentenced to death, but the German jailer who was in charge of him and other resistance fighters was a good man and had respect for the prisoners, Versteeg said. His grandfather survived because of the jailer, and later he testified on the man’s behalf during the Nuremburg trials. The song also captures his grandfather’s philosophy on life, Versteeg said. “He had an extremely hard life, a lot of ups and downs, and he always just took it with a grain of salt, like saying ‘so
it goes,’” he said. In remembering his grandfather’s common advice to “keep going,” Versteeg recently had those words tattooed on his arm. Other songs were inspired with a bit more whimsy. Lonesome George is the only slow song on the album, and was written about the famous Pinta Island tortoise of the same name. Lonesome George was discovered to be the last of his kind in the world in the 1970s, and finally died last June. “I was so amazed he’d been the last one since the late 60s,” Versteeg said, noting he wrote the song before the tortoise died. “Obviously I’m humanizing the tortoise, but if the second last of his species was his wife, when she was dying he was coming to grips with the loss of his wife but also the loss of his entire species.” He said the idea struck him as an extreme lesson about letting go. WHITE PAINT
The band has added a touch of authenticity to the name of its album, of which 12,000 copies have been hand-paint-
PET OF THE WEEK
ed with about 50 gallons of white paint. The band called in reinforcements to get the job done for the first print run. “We threw a party, we rented out a big warehouse, we bussed in about 150 of our friends and bought like 50 gallons of paint and everyone pitched in,” Versteeg said. Despite painting all night, the band members and some close friends had to spend another two days finishing painting the albums, he said. It’s not surprising that so much effort went into making the albums unique. Record in a Bag was originally packaged in freezer bags, with swag like guitar picks, stickers and fortunes included with the record. This time, Hollerado offered fans the opportunity to receive a personalized song along with a t-shirt and vinyl copy of the album if they bought the “super duper deluxe” album package online.

Hollerado released its second album on Feb. 26. lead vocals and guitar, Nixon Boyd on guitar, Jake Boyd on drums and Dean Baxter on bass. In 2009, the band won Live 88.5’s annual battle of the bands, Big Money Shot. They took home a $250,000 prize to help with tour and equipment costs. They released a free digital version of their first album that
year, which was re-released in stores in 2010. Since forming, the band has largely been based out of Montreal and Toronto. They have spent the past several years touring and opening for bands like Jack White’s The Dead Weather and The Stills from Montreal. This spring Hollerado will tour with Billy Talent.
Pet Adoptions LOLA
Meet Lola, a spayed female, black and tan Border Collie and Shepherd mix who is about 5 years old. She was brought to the OHS as a stray on January 29, but is now ready for adoptions! Lola loves to be with people. She is a very outgoing and affectionate dog who would love a family that would keep her in shape by taking her for nice, long, adventurous walks. Lola is a vocal lady, so her perfect fit would be in a single, detached home so she doesn’t get you in trouble with your neighbours. Lola is a smart lady and would like it if her new family would teach her some new tricks, as well as help her perfect her repertoire of basic obedience commands!

Hi there, My name is Pebbles. I was adopted from the new Humane Society on Hunt Club road last November 19th, 2011. I was much smaller then and have doubled in size. I have made best friends with my owner Scott who throws me little rubber balls and toy mice so I can get my exercise. I’m an indoor kitty and need to stretch my legs with a good sprint around the house! He brushes me daily as I have a big fluffy coat that I like to show off. I also have a big purr and sure do like to snuggle with my friend at night. I’m always where the action is and try to help when I can which keeps Scott happy for the great company.

Microchips provide a permanent means of pet identification that will not fade or be lost over time. Owner information can be accessed electronically and immediately, to help ensure a quick return of the lost pet. But while a microchip is a non-removable means of pet identification, your information must be up-to-date if you want the microchip to work. If you have moved or changed your phone number, then your lost pet may not be able to return home. If you adopted your pet from the Ottawa Humane Society or have had your pet “chipped” at one of our microchip clinics, you were given the microchip number and information about the microchip provider.

March 20 Heritage Ottawa presents a free public lecture on the topic of Rediscovering Lowertown. This event takes place at 7 p.m. at the Ottawa Public Library Auditorium 120 Metcalfe St. Built on a swamp between the Rideau River and the Rideau Canal and north of the “sandy hill,” Lowertown and the Byward Market became a workers’ paradise as it matured in the 1920s, ’30s and ’40s. It was almost obliterated by illconceived urban renewal and transportation schemes in the ’60s and early ’70s and continues to struggle to this day to survive despite being designated as an important
heritage area. Marc Aubin, a sixth generation resident of Lowertown and president of the Lowertown Community Association, along with fellow members, will share perspectives on the community’s successes and challenges in protecting and restoring the area’s heritage. Lecture will be in English. Questions are welcome in either official language. For more information, email info@heritageottawa.org, call 613-230-8841 or visit heritageottawa.org.
