Airport looking to help local economy take flight Erin McCracken
erin.mccracken@metroland.com
More than 4.6 million passengers – most of them travelling domestically – passed through the Ottawa International Airport in 2014, representing an increase of less than one per cent over 2013. “It’s almost flat growth,” Mark Laroche, president and chief executive officer of airport authority, said
during the organization’s annual general meeting at the Hilton Garden Inn on May 6. “But, if I can be an optimist, it’s green shoots and it should be leading back to normal growth within 12 to 24 months.” Even with his optimistic outlook, Laroche said the reality is that passenger growth, which experienced a drop in 2013 due to government cutbacks, will be

slow going since growth is typically in sync with the health of the local economy. “So as GDP in the Ottawa-Gatineau area rises, so does passenger growth,” he said. “When people feel confident in the local economy, they travel more.” The authority anticipates the number of passengers will climb about 1.5 per cent this year. Laroche said normal growth for the Ottawa airport is between two and three per cent. “It’s going to be hard to achieve that this year,” he said. Still, airport revenues topped $112.3 million last year, representing an eight per cent increase over the $101.4 million generated in 2013 due to a $3 hike in the $20 airport improvement fee, which came into effect March 1, 2014. The fee is collected from each departing passenger.

Elderly women have fallen victim to several distraction thefts in Ottawa, prompting police to issue a warning in hopes more people don’t fall prey. Investigators believe the two male suspects they believe are behind the Ottawa crimes have targeted elderly women in Kingston, Toronto, Halton, Barrie, York and Waterloo. “The two suspects usually follow a victim into a store, observe and obtain their (personal identification number) during a purchase and then follow her out (of the) store to her vehicle,” police said in a recent statement. “One of the suspects, usually a man, will distract the elderly woman by pointing to a possible issue with their vehicle, like a flat tire at the rear.” At the same time, the other suspect will steal the woman’s purse or wallet, and within minutes the thieves will head to a nearby bank machine and drain the victim’s bank account. The male suspects are described
by police as Latin American, between 20 and 35 years old, and about five-foot-10. The men were wearing puffy, lightweight windbreaker style jack-

Revenue spike attributed to hike in airport improvement fee Continued from page 1
Of those revenues, $44 million came from airport improvement fees. Handling fees and other charges to airlines brought in $37 million. The airport does not receive government funding. “One hundred per cent of these airport improvement fees are used to fund the cost of airport infrastructure and related financing,” said Janice Traversy, chairwoman of the authority’s audit committee, “The authority is currently investing over $30 million of these fees to improve its outbound baggage handling system to comply with new security regulations on baggage screening,” she said, adding there are no plans to raise the airport improvement fee. In addition to serving millions of passengers each year, the airport annually pumps more than $2.2 billion into the local economy. Through its strategic plan,
ERIN MCCRACKEN/METROLAND
After a drop in the number of passengers at the Ottawa airport in 2013, normal growth is expected to come within the next two years, Mark Laroche, president and chief executive officer of the Ottawa International Airport Authority, said during the authority’s annual general meeting on May 6. unveiled last year, the authority wants to grow its numbers “responsibly and effectively over the next several years,” said Susan St. Amand, who
was recently elected as the charwoman of the authority’s board of directors. She has served on the board since 2012.
“I have watched the authority and the airport continue to grow and to change,” said Amand, whose new role was announced May 4. “The authority’s vision, which is to be the world-class gateway for Canada’s capital region and an economic engine that drives prosperity for our community, is one that we have already achieved, in part.” Changes have already been afoot at the airport for some time. Just two days before the annual meeting, the final touches were being put in place on the third phase of the $30-million reconstruction of the airport’s longest runway, which was re-grooved last summer. “This makes our airport the only commercial airport in Canada that has grooved runways,” Amand said. “While this safety feature is a standard in the United States, it is not a regulatory requirement here in Canada.” The Ottawa airport is still the only tier-one airport in
Not hearing clearly when many people are talking? Many people find that they are no longer able to understand everything, particularly when in the company of others. Engineered in Switzerland, System Audéo V has been designed specifically to understand in group situations.

The words seem blurred and indistinct. But why is that? The effect tends to manifest itselfincompany,orintherestaurant. It is the high-pitched tones perceived at the entrance to the cochlea that are decisive when it comes to hearing things accurately. In the majority of cases these parts of the inner ear are the first to be affected by noise or aging.

the country that has security enhancing features, which include the grooved surface and the addition of 300-metre-long runway end safety zones. A new domestic baggage carousel has also been installed at the facility, and work will continue behind the scenes on this until 2016. The Ottawa facility is among the top-ranked airports in the world. “We finished third in the world for airports that serve between two and five million passengers per year and fifth overall in North America,” Amand said, adding the airport is the only one in the world to rank in both categories. Getting people to and from the airport and maintaining a strong transportation system is “a prerequisite” to ensuring the airport maintains its high ranking, said Laroche, reason why the authority is working with the city on its environmental assessments of the extension of the light
rail network in south Ottawa and the expansion of the Airport Parkway. “We’ve had a good collaboration with the City of Ottawa to make sure that they look at having a link to the airport terminal, and I’m pleased (with) the progress so far,” Laroche said, adding that the city will submit an assessment that will include an airport spur. “That doesn’t mean they’re going to get funding for it at this time, but at least that’s the first step,” he said. It’s anticipated the city will adopt a resolution to approve the environmental assessment of the expansion of the Trillium Line (formerly the O-Train line), likely in June, said Laroche. Ontario’s Ministry of the Environment will need to give the assessment the green light and then funds will have to be secured. “But this is the time to ask for money,” he said, referring to the upcoming federal election.

People can test the new Audéo V system by Phonak simply by calling now to do so. The test phase in particular is designed to clarify how speech comprehension can be improved in various situations and what role a new technology called “Autosense OS” plays. The chip recognizes where the person being spoken to
is located and amplifies only his or her voice, while ambient noise is lowered and the optimum hearing programs are seamlessly adjusted. Thanks to several synchronous microphones, the hearing system can detect sound in all directions and select the direction that speech is coming from within milliseconds.

River Road drivers beware: police to tackle speeding Erin McCracken erin.mccracken@metroland.com
Consider yourself warned. An upswing in traffic, speeding, tailgating and passing on the shoulder in the wake of last summer’s opening of Vimy Memorial Bridge has prompted the recent installation of two digital speeding signs on River Road. The temporary signs, which flash a motorist’s speed, should serve as a warning to comply with speed limits on the scenic route, which range from 60 to 80 kilometres an hour, or potentially face hefty fines. Police presence on River Road was also recently boosted, a measure that is expected to continue in the coming weeks. “This is a head’s up,” said Gloucester-South Nepean Coun. Michael Qaqish. “If they’re still speeding after this then I think we have some issues. Obviously, if there’s going
to be recurring patterns of speeding then we’re gong to have to crack down on that for the safety of residents.” Several people, particularly in the Gloucester Glen and Honey Gables communities, have raised concerns in recent months about traffic volumes, speeding and tailgating along the two-lane stretch. With the increase in traffic, especially during weekday rush hours, and the prevalence of speeding, residents in the area find it challenging to turn onto River Road from their residential neighbourhoods. Bron Vasic, president of the Honey Gables Development Association, which represents a community of more than 50 homes, said he and his neighbours are worried about being rear-ended by tailgating motorists as they slow down to turn off River Road and head for home. “They’re just bulleting down the

road. They’re either speeding away from the bridge or speeding to the bridge to go over it – they’re in that much of a hurry,” Vasic said. “They’re essentially tailgating you and wondering, ‘Well, why are you slowing down?’ It’s very intimidating, especially for older residents. “We have a significant population that are older. It’s difficult for the residents that live right along River Road … to be able to handle some of the traffic issues,” he said, adding that the volume of traffic has gone up dramatically with the opening of Vimy Memorial Bridge. The purpose of the bridge was to create better east-west connectivity, Qaqish said, but added that “with that connectivity also comes traffic issues that we have to proactively manage.” Data is now being collected to measure traffic volumes. Traffic signal timing changes have also been implemented at different points on River Road, and the city is adding directional signs along the approaches to River Road. Also a worry has been the prevalence of motorists using the narrow gravel shoulders to go around turning drivers. Qaqish hopes recently installed metal signs that warn motorists to stop rather than veer around other drivers will help curb this kind of behaviour. Elmdale resident Kerry Mortimer first sounded the alarm about a boost in traffic and speeders on River Road not long after the

After she publicly voiced her concerns, a number of local residents contacted her to express similar worries. “It’s still a pretty constant increase in traffic.

signs go up along her road last week, but believes enforcement is the best way to send a zero-tolerance message about speeding. When she slows down to turn onto her street in the Cedardale community in Gloucester-Southgate ward, motorists behind her will just zip around her at high speeds. “People continue on and I just wish a cop was there to get them,” she said. While River Road is supposed to be a scenic route, it’s become more of a thoroughfare for commuters, said Mortimer. Prohibiting drivers from turning left onto River Road from the bridge during rush hour would help channel drivers along Earl Armstrong Road to Limebank Road – a four-lane stretch that has an 80km/h speed limit – and head north to Hunt Club Road and Riverside Drive. “So go, fill your boots,” said Mortimer. “There’s no buses on those routes. River Road has school buses on it every day. Kids crossing, kids getting off of buses, and people are passing on double yellow?” Vasic said a traffic light could also be added to the corner of Leitrim and River roads to improve safety. “People have this illusion that it’s so much shorter to turn left onto River Road instead of going to Limebank,” Vasic said. “In distance, it might be a kilometre shorter … but it’s really not a shortcut.”

Not time to slam on the brakes
T
here’s a great deal of consensus these days around the idea that as a society, we need to move beyond our dependence on the automobile. Sprawl, congestion and road safety are among the issues brought up time and time again at city halls across the country. Here in Ottawa, what to do about all the cars is top of mind as well. Councillors and staff are always looking for ways to make commutes easier, streets safer and neighbourhoods friendlier for those doing pretty much anything other than driving a car. As it should be. Roads are costly to maintain. Congestion saps valuable time that could be spent doing any number of other, more productive things. Cyclists and pedestrians are at constant risk of serious injury or worse while navigating the city. But there’s a problem: Ottawa, as with the rest of Canada, is a society built for the past century around the automobile. Cities have been planned around the idea that most people will go out their front door, hop behind the wheel and go wherever
they need to go. That’s history that won’t be erased overnight. There are a number of initiatives in Ottawa right now sizing up how parking is handled. Westboro is considering paid parking for Richmond Road, Preston Street is dropping fees, and the city is pondering reducing parking requirements for new buildings in the urban area. Those looking to improve our city by making life difficult for cars need to take pause. Restrictions on parking, if implemented too quickly, will be detrimental to the city. Most people still drive, and if they can’t drive where they want, they’ll stay away. Part of what makes cities vibrant isn’t just those people who live in a particular neighbourhood, but who else that neighbourhood attracts. If you can’t get somewhere, you won’t go. This means before we rush to bar the car, we should focus on building transit, cycling and pedestrian infrastructure. Make it easier for people to choose to leave their ride behind before you force them to make that decision.

Time for public generosity for public schools
T
here’s a school in my neighbourhood that is doing an effective job of fundraising for a new, and needed, playground. A coup was getting the support of a nearby Loblaws, where signage promotes the campaign and customers are invited, at the checkout counter, to contribute. There has been some published controversy in recent months over this technique – not in this specific case, but in others. Some people have complained that they feel put-upon, embarrassed, even shamed when they are publicly asked to contribute to worthy causes. Many of these people are privately generous and resent being made to feel like cheapskates when they decline to contribute. People rushed to answer to this

tion involves more than courses and books. It also includes exercise and safe play. Shouldn’t we all be paying for that with our taxes? Schools have been nickel-anddimed for decades, forced into bake sales and selling chocolate bars to finance activities and equipment that should be theirs by right. It all comes out of some strange notion of fiscal prudence, a desire to keep taxes low and cut frills. So “frills� become things like team uniforms, sports equipment and playgrounds. And special programs at some schools are available only to those children whose parents can afford to fork out the money for them. This makes a mockery out of the words “public education.� Worse, it penalizes those schools in less afflu-

ent areas. Parents who live in better-off neighbourhoods have no difficulty contributing extra money, no difficulty in persuading neighbours and friends to chip in. The result is a further educational inequality. The irony of it all is that many of those who call for restraints in spending on schools are of the generation that benefitted from a more generous time. If you are above a certain age, you can remember that you were given a uniform when you made the team. You didn’t have to sell chocolate bars to pay for it. Times have changed, taxpayers have become stingier, governments have become more cautious, school boards have had to make cuts, parents have to make up the difference. That’s why you’re being asked to pitch in for a playground. There’s no reason not to be generous there.

Ontario child-care centres should raise the bar
W
hen I imagine the perfect daycare, my mind flits to Norway, where publicly subsidized child care centres should be a model for the world: small groups, fresh food, and access to the natural environment. It’s a tall order, but who wouldn’t want that for her child. In Ottawa, we’re fortunate to a have a solid network of licensed child care centres. Since the transfer of child care oversight from the Ministry of Social Services to the Ministry of Education, and the introduction of full-day kindergarten, more schools than before have also implemented pre-school facilities. Over the past few months I’ve been touring a number of school-centred child care facilities for my soon-to-be three-year-old. Most of the spaces I’ve seen are lovely and bright and would be the envy of those in countries other than Canada. But unlike the dreamy daycares in Norway that exist on the edge of forests, school centres are often hard landscaped indoors and out. Inside it means tile floors, the kind that one would expect to see in a public institution like a school or a hospital, which creates a hollow echo. Outside, it means asphalt, play structures and chainlink fences. It’s hard for me to picture my nature-loving child there day in and day out with 15 other children in the same room. There are better models in our midst, which if schools are serious about offering good care environments, could be considered. Currently, for example, my youngest goes to a lovely pre-school three mornings per week. One of the things I love about it – besides the high ratio of three adults to nine children – is the space. It is a large area divided into stations, separated by rugs. They have a costume corner and a teddy corner with
BRYNNA LESLIE Capital Muse books. They have miniature armchairs and all the toys are neatly divided into colourful bins. It’s stimulating while at the same time comfortable. The small group (less than 10) takes regular walks to the nearby park, full of green and trees and flowers. I’d love her to stay, but it’s only 10 hours of care
“The space is inviting, with many home-type comforts, including soft furniture and rugs. The outdoor space is well-designed for structured play, but the daycare also has access to a secret garden-type green space.”
per week. The upside is for my daughter, who comes home from her mornings inspired and exhausted, and ready to nap in her own bed for a few hours, making 10 hours a week plenty for her. The other upside is that staff always seems perky, likely because they only have to look after these kids for 10 hours per week. The downside is that 10 hours per week isn’t enough time for parents to get to work, do anything meaningful, and then get home again.
Years ago, my elder children went to what I consider to be the best – the model – child care facility in Ottawa, another that should be emulated by school centres. A co-operative, the centre is parent governed. As such, the daycare represents what parents have demanded over the last 35 years of its existence, like low technology, an emergent curricula and pet fish. The space is inviting, with many hometype comforts, including soft furniture and rugs. The outdoor space is well-designed for structured play, but the daycare also has access to a secret gardentype green space with large trees to hide under, as well as fields of flowers and walks. The staff is unionized, which means they get decent vacation, benefits and pay, training – and primarily that there is a low turnover rate. There is an on-site cook, who shops at the local grocery store and creates a weekly menu combining vegetarian foods, various ethnic foods and a balanced, low-sugar, low-salt diet. The food is so good, I’d like to pop in for lunch every day. Philosophically, we know a lot about the needs of preschool-aged children. There is much research to suggest that home daycare or homelike daycare offers the best environment for kids. From Norway, we also know that time spent in the natural environment daily is essential to well-being. As the Ministry of Education looks ahead to what school-centred child care centres should be, they would do well to look at model environments like the ones described above to give working parents real choice.

LETTERS Retirees fight plans to curtail their pensions To the editor,
STEPH WILLEMS/METROLAND
Tulip Legacy Clear skies and 31-degree temperatures greeted visitors on the opening day of the Ottawa Tulip Festival in Commissioners Park, on the shores of Dow’s Lake. This year marks the 70th anniversary of the Tulip Legacy, created following the liberation of Nazi-occupied Netherlands by Canadian troops near the end of the Second World War. The Dutch government has sent a gift of thousands of tulip bulbs to Canada every year since the war’s end as a way of expressing their people’s gratitude. The opening day of the Tulip Festival, which runs until May 18, coincides with the 70th anniversary of V-E Day, the day Germany surrendered to Allied forces in Europe.
No ce of Commencement Kennedy-Burne Stormwater Management Facility – Environmental Assessment and Func onal Design The City of O awa is undertaking a Municipal Class Environmental Assessment (EA) for the expansion and retrofit of the Kennedy-Burne Stormwater Management Facility in Barrhaven. The project was iden fied as a preferred alterna ve in the South Nepean Urban Area Master Servicing and Environmental Study. The exis ng Kennedy-Burne Stormwater Management Facility receives runoff from approximately 202 hectares of predominantly residen al lands north of Strandherd Drive, along with a por on of commercial development in the Barrhaven Town Centre. The facility will be expanded and retrofi ed to provide enhanced water quality treatment consistent with Ministry of Environment and Climate Change requirements for the exis ng serviced area as well as the proposed developments adjacent to the facility south of Strandherd Drive. A func onal design for the facility will also be completed as part of this study. The Process The study is being planned under Schedule B of the Municipal Class EA (October 2000, as amended in 2007 and 2011), which is an approved process under the Ontario Environmental Assessment Act.

On May 5, the Ottawa branch of the National Association of Federal Retirees held its annual general meeting at the RA Centre on Riverside Drive. The Ottawa branch has more than 34,000 members in the region. The association is a nonpartisan organization promoting the interests and protecting the benefits of retired federal employees. The keynote speaker at the meeting was Rosemary Pitfield, national director of communications, who described the organization’s response to recent changes to the pension landscape by various levels of government in Canada and what the association is doing in response to this. Since 2011, provincial governments in New Brunswick, Ontario and Quebec have introduced legislation to reduce the earned benefits of their employees and pensioners and there are indications, depending
Connected to your community
on the result of a recent civil suit brought against the New Brunswick government by their retirees that the federal government may not be far behind. The national association has joined with other organizations to form the Canadian Coalition for Retirement Security to ensure the protection of public and private sector employees accrued and retirees’ pensions and benefits. The coalition is composed of 23 organizations representing close to six million working and retired Canadians. In the coming months, the association, as part of the coalition, will mount a non-partisan campaign to leverage public support for federal and provincial legislation to protect benefits that have already been earned by public and private sector employees and retirees. The results from recent focus groups organized by the association make it clear that Canadians want the federal government to live up to the commitments they have made to their pensioners and employees and see not honouring these commitments as “despicable” and
“shameful.” The association has met with the leaders of the federal political parties including Opposition leader Thomas Mulcair, who has promised to support legislation to protect accrued benefits, and Liberal leader Justin Trudeau, who has been sympathetic toward the idea. The association has not yet been able to meet with anyone from the government. In the months leading up to the federal election (scheduled for Oct. 19), the association will launch the Honour Your Promise campaign on the web to mobilize members to get involved in the election and to highlight these issues in riding across Canada. As well, all-candidate meetings will be organized in key areas across the country (including Ottawa) to discuss these issues. A tool kit will be sent to members as part of the fall issue of SAGE, the association magazine. Further information can be found on the association’s website. Peter Cormier Ottawa

In the aftermath of the spraying of Konk 400, which is not on the school board’s list of approved pesticides, several parents of children who fell sick met with Ottawa lawyer Lawrence Greenspon to consider their legal options. Hunter said Charles Hulse students have “adjusted well to their new, temporary school location at Parkwood Hills.” “In addition, staff has maximized the learning time both at Ridgemont High School and at Parkwood Hills Public School through changes to transportation,” she said. After students are bused from Parkwood Hills to Ridgemont High each afternoon, they continue their lessons inside Ridgemont’s cafeteria before they are picked up by their parents and caregivers.

The reopening of Charles H. Hulse Public School, which was closed in April when several students and staff fell sick after an unauthorized pesticide product was sprayed inside the building, has been pushed back to May 25. The 350 students, in junior kindergarten to Grade 8, have been bused daily to Parkwood Hills Public School in Nepean since April 22. They were initially expected to resume classes at their school on Alta Vista Drive sometime between May 11 and 19, following ongoing cleaning and renovations. The school’s reopening has taken longer than anticipated to complete, Sharlene Hunter, spokeswoman for the Ottawa-Carleton District School Board said in a statement May

Two suspects arrested just days after Eastway Gardens killing Arrests spell relief for area residents Erin McCracken erin.mccracken@metroland.com
Just days after a 21-year-old Riverview Park man was shot to death in Eastway Gardens on May 3, residents in the tight-knit community were breathing a sigh of relief that police had made two arrests in connection with the city’s third homicide this year. Matt Shillington, who lives about 120 metres from where Sharif Said was gunned down, was glad to hear news of the arrests, which were made on May 6. “It was a good feeling. I shouldn’t say it’s a relief, I mean someone lost a kid,” said Shillington, father to two children. “But it’s a relief knowing that they found someone.” The longtime Eastway Gardens resident was woken the day of the shooting to the sound of several “pops” at around 6 a.m. Thinking the source was concrete drilling in the area, he dozed off. But doubts gnawed at him that perhaps the loud, heavy-sounding bangs had been caused by something else, and he got up to investigate. He looked out his bedroom window and saw the victim’s Honda Civic with its doors open. Police had already arrived and were putting up yellow tape to cordon off the scene. “I’ve got this feeling that I could
have done something, I could have seen something if I’d woken up, and it kind of bugs me that I didn’t,” Shillington said. “Knowing that it’s not going to go unsolved, that they found, someone makes me feel better.” The morning of the shooting, Anne Ricard, who has lived in Eastway Gardens for almost 25 years, heard one bang, got up, but didn’t think anything of it and went back to bed. “It sounded like the bangs that we hear all the time,” she said, referring to ongoing transit construction in the neighbourhood. From her home, she can’t see the area where the shooting took place, “and I didn’t expect to see anything,” she said. “My son, who sleeps a floor above us, he heard more (bangs), but he too thought it was the construction.” When Ricard’s husband went out to run errands a few hours later, he saw the road had been barricaded. When the family eventually learned there had been a shooting, she said she wasn’t worried since there have only been three homicides in Ottawa this year – a small number compared to other cities. Rather, she felt sadness that someone had been killed. “To be honest, I’ve lived there 25 years and it’s the only time something like that has happened,” Ricard said. “I was more sad for the (young man) that died, and to die that way too.” Reports initially indicated the shooting may have been gang- or drug-related, though major crime

party and the victim was followed to Tremblay Road at Belfast Road. “So it kind of takes away from that, ‘Oh, were they doing drug deals in parking lots by our house,’” Shillington said. “So I’m glad that this was a different situation. I mean, it’s still a terrible outcome, but a different situation than what everyone assumed.” Emergency responders were called to the Eastway Gardens community to what was initially thought to be a motor vehicle accident. The victim had been found lying in the road near a Honda Civic. He was rushed to hospital where he died, according to investigators. Khalid Mohammad, 26, was arrested May 6 and is facing a seconddegree murder charge. Another man, 28-year-old Abdulaziz Abdullah, was arrested the same day and has been charged with accessory to murder after the fact. According to courthouse records, both suspects have numerous criminal convictions, including weapons offences. In addition to serving jail time, they were also handed lifetime weapons bans. Their first court appearance was May 7, the day after they were arrested. Abdullah was scheduled to next appear in an Elgin Street court room
by video on May 11, while Mohammad is set to appear May 22, also via video link. Police are still appealing to the public for information on the case. A day after the shooting, Staff Sgt. Robert Drummond, who is managing the homicide case, said investigators want to speak with anyone who may have information about Said and the Honda Civic, as well as anyone who may have witnessed “any interaction between the victim, that vehicle or any other people or another vehicle.” The major crime unit can be reached by calling 613-236-1222, ext. 5493, or make an anonymous call to Crime Stoppers at 1-800-2228477.

The new riding of Carleton includes Manotick, North Gower, Kars, Vernon, Metcalfe, Findlay Creek, Riverside South and Stittsville. Nepean-Carleton MP Pierre Poilievre, the federal Conservative government’s minister of employment and social development, is the MP for the area that will now be within the boundaries of the Carleton riding. Rodgers most recently worked in the federal public service for the past 10 years. He took a leave of absence to seek the Liberal nomination in Carleton.

Work-to-rule action is ‘Phase 1’: elementary teachers union
Diane Diane Deans Deans Councillor/Conseillère Quartier Gloucester-Southgate Ward

see the province’s 73,000 elementary teachers withdraw from ministry activities, including EQAO testing, at all 32 English public school boards. Extracurricular activities, field trips, extra help for students and parent-teacher meetings will continue. Under the province’s new bargaining framework, big-ticket items like salaries and class sizes are hashed out between the province and union, while smaller, localized items are bargained between the union and school boards. The Ottawa-Carleton District School Board posted the update on their website, reminding parents that secondary and occasional teachers represented by the Ontario Secondary School Teachers Federation remain in a legal strike position. Strikes are ongoing at Peel, Durham and Sudbury-area school boards. “The OCDSB is one of seven Ontario school districts which OSSTF has targeted for strike action,” stated the public board. “(The union) must provide five days advance notice of any planned strike action to the OCDSB. “To date, we have not received notice of strike action at the OCDSB. The school district remains committed to negotiating fair and fully funded collective agreements for our employees.” On May 11, the ETFO and the province briefly returned to the bargaining table, only to have talks break off a few hours later due to lack of concessions on either part.

Update- Hunt Club Road Selective Resurfacing I would like to inform you that the selective resurfacing of Hunt Club Road will commence the week of May 19 2015 and is planned to wrap up by the end of July 2015. Please note that the projected time line of the project is weather dependant. The resurfacing includes four sections of Hunt Club Road, between Albion Road and Conroy Road. This will improve the quality of the road, reduce vibrations to the homes abutting Hunt Club, and create a safer arterial road to travel. There will be no peak hour disruptions of traffic (7:00am-9:00am & 3:30pm-5:30pm) and one lane in each direction will remain open during off-peak hours. City staff have confirmed with me that there will only be minor traffic interruptions which will be monitored by a traffic control person. Please watch my column for further updates as they become available. Earth Day – Thank you! I was pleased to see so many Gloucester-Southgate residents join me at my recent Earth Day Event held on April 22 at the Greenboro Community Centre. I enjoyed speaking with neighbours and received positive feedback from residents who visited the City of Ottawa, Hydro Ottawa and EnviroCentre information tables. It was a pleasure to hand out energy efficient light bulbs that were generously donated by the Home Depot, located at 2056 Bank Street. Loblaws South Keys at 2210 Bank Street donated two beautiful cakes for the occasion along with reusable shopping bags. Thank you to the EnviroCentre at 366 Rideau Street who donated the feature raffle prize for a $50 gift certificate to the EnviroBoutique store. Thank you to all who made this annual event a great success!

“Minister Sandals and her government have been willing partners with the Ontario Public School Boards’ Association (OPSBA) in making demands that would unravel a decade of progress in creating a strong education system and strong teachers,” said Hammond. “ETFO teachers are not prepared to allow increases in class sizes, have their preparation time directed by others, or be micromanaged and have their ability to support student learning compromised … After eight months of bargaining, it is entirely disingenuous of Minister Sandals to plead ignorance of how these and other issues have forced us to take this strike action.” Phase 1 of the work action will

The union representing elementary teachers in Ontario has begun “incremental strike action” targeting the Ministry of Education, according to a May 8 announcement. The Elementary Teachers Federation of Ontario kept parents on edge, waiting until the afternoon of the Friday before a planned Monday strike action. But worries of an all-out strike were doused – at least temporarily – by word that the work action would target administrative activities and not affect student education. The threat of more drastic future action remains, as the ETFO stated the work-to-rule action was “Phase 1” of the union’s plan to make the provincial government back off its demands. Talks between the ETFO and province broke off in April, and three public secondary school boards are already on strike in Ontario. Away from the bargaining table, the friction between the union and province grew after Education Minister Liz Sandals publically minimized the union’s stance, accusing the ETFO of wanting to strike for strike’s sake. She criticized the union for adding stress to parents by waiting until the last minute to release details of the specific work action planned. ETFO president Sam Hammond targeted Sandals in a May 9 release that explains the union’s strategy.

It’s city-building at its finest: open up the capital’s coolest buildings for a behind-thescenes look at form and function as part of the annual Doors Open Ottawa weekend. Long-time co-chairwoman Linda Russell might even take that outcome a little further. “I like to think of Doors Open as a tiny revolutionary way to build a city,” she said at the launch on May 11. “The discovery of the inner workings of a place – why it’s there, who designed it and built it, its purpose today, its story within a neighbourhood – all contributes to our understanding of where we live. And it only makes sense that while learning about the architecture of our city, we all become more passionate about designing its future.” Doors Open Ottawa will open 129 buildings to the public on June 6 and 7, including the United States Embassy, the British High Commissioner’s residence, the Supreme Court building and the National Gallery of Canada, as well as numerous heritage homes, places of worship and embassies. The list has 22 new additions this year, from Bluesfest’s new Festival House in the converted Westboro United Church to the Canadian Blood Services’ donation processing plant in Nepean. Other new sites include the Alta Vista Animal Hospital, the Ayres heritage bank building in Manotick, the University of Ottawa’s advanced research complex, the Jami Omar mosque in Bells Corners and the Ottawa Fire Services training centre. “It’s almost like going to the Great Glebe Garage Sale: you’ve got to map out your strategy,” said Mayor Jim Watson. “There’s so much to see.” The annual event attracts more than 70,000 visitors every year to check out the
Open buildings in the city’s south end range from the sprawling green lawns of Billings Estate national historic site to the no-nonsense hangars of the Ottawa Fire Services training centre. Popular sites include: • The Gloucester artifact collection • The Algonquin Centre for Construction Excellence • The Hindu Temple of Ottawa-Carleton • The OC Transpo Walkey Yard maintanence facility. New sites this year include the Ayres heritage building in Manotick, the Alta Vista Animal Hospital and the Ottawa Tennis and Lawn Bowling clubhouse.
The city operates a free Doors Open shuttle that connects riders to more than 50 of the downtown buildings over the weekend, from Hintonburg to Vanier. Those include: • The Lester B. Pearson and Connaught buildings • Ottawa Rowing Club • Royal Canadian Mint Elisabeth Bruyere hospital • Embassies for France, United States, Croatia and Algeria • Arts Court • Enriched Bread Artists studio • Ottawa Sports Hall of Fame • Laurier House National Historic Site • The Bytown Museum. New sites this year include St. Albans Church, the AIDS Committee of Ottawa, the Canadian Nurses Association house, the embassy of the Czech Republic and the Rideau Club.

Students honour residential school survivors through art Erin McCracken

Colourful leaves decorated with glitter and paint create a rainbow trail along the forest floor. Others appear to blow in the wind – a hallmark of autumn marking the advent of winter. A blue jay sits in a tree bare of leaves. “This tree is a dead tree, but it’s still serving a purpose in the forest,” said Albert Dumont, a Vanier-based Algonquin elder, spiritual adviser, artist and poet. “That’s the beauty and mystery of the forest.” R0013278507-0514

Dumont has been working with students at Pleasant Park Public School in Alta Vista to create four murals that depict the four seasons, known in the aboriginal culture as birth seasons. A person had a birth season, rather than a birthday. The works of art, which prominently depict people from different cultures, including the Métis, First Nations and Inuit communities, and feature the students’ ideas and creativity, will soon be photographed. Those photos will be mounted outside on the school as a gesture of reconciliation to support residential school survivors and the work being done by the Truth and Reconciliation Commission of Canada. “At the very beginning, we weren’t sure where it was going, because like every other project, you say, ‘OK, we have a dream,’” said principal Guido Ronci. Now in the final homestretch prior to the unveiling, possibly in June, the social studies mural initiative, known as Màmawi – which means “together” in the Algonquin language – has surpassed expectations. “It’s an opportunity for the students to know a lot of things about First Nations culture and to learn about why it’s necessary to keep the land healthy, the waters healthy, the air that we breathe (healthy),” Dumont said. Through the collaborative creative process, Pleasant Park students have learned about the role of the Truth and Reconciliation Commission, which has over the past five years been researching and collecting documents

As part of the initiative, Marie Wilson, a truth and reconciliation commissioner, will deliver a keynote address during a free community lec-
ture on Thursday, May 21 at 6 p.m. at Rideau High School, located at 815 St. Laurent Blvd. For Margaret Embleton, whose two children attend Pleasant Park school, the art mural project and upcoming lecture, in addition to other aboriginal cultural awareness exercises at the school, needed to happen. “This year, with the (commission) releasing its final report, I wanted to do something extra special – in honour of that and in honour of survivors of residential schools,” Embleton said. “I think it’s going to have a big im-
pact – in this neighbourhood, possibly at the city level – if people embark on coming to listen to commissioner Wilson,” Ronci said of the lecture and the Màmawi mural. “It’s all about aboriginal awareness and, in particular, the relationship with First Nations, Inuit and Métis.” To register for the free lecture at Rideau High by May 18, visit tinyurl. com/mamawi2015.

Gaelic football for children and teens is on a winning streak in Ottawa. Organizers with the Ottawa Gaels Gaelic Athletic Association and Club, which is celebrating its 40th anniversary this year, are capitalizing on the success of day camps that first launched in Riverside South, Kanata and Almonte last year. A new camp has been added for west Ottawa this year. Some of the skill development camps will be run by Gaelic football coaches, Angela Stevenson and Emmett Stewart, who arrived from Northern Ireland in April. The athletes, who will be here until the end of the school year, have also been visiting schools to introduce young people to the fast-paced sport that features components similar to volleyball, basketball and soccer. “Really, we just want the kids out playing the sport because it’s a great sport and we want more people doing it,” said
keen to learn. Their enthusiasm for the sport, which is played 15 aside, is likely because it’s new to them. “They absolutely love it and they just want to play it,” Stevenson said. “They don’t want to be coached it. They don’t want to learn skills. They’re able to do that automatically. They’re just mad to play it.” Tournament-bound
About 20 boys and girls from Ottawa on two U8 and U10 teams will again head south of the border to play Gaelic football in the four-day Continental Youth Championship, which takes place this year in San Francisco, July 30 to August 2. “In fact, we’re the only Canadian club that is going,” Mortimer said, adding this is largely because of the cost associated with travelling out west. Last July, 33 boys and girls travelled from Ottawa to New York City – the largest contingent of youth from the National Capital Region to play in
the U.S.-based Gaelic football tournament, which draws about 2,500 kids. It’s the largest Gaelic sporting event outside the Emerald Isle. To help offset the cost of the upcoming trip to California, the club will hold a number of fundraisers, including a golf tournament at the Emerald Links Golf & Country Club on June 13. Camp details
The Riverside South kids’ Gaelic football training camp will be held May 18 to June 29 at St. Francis Xavier Catholic High School. The west Ottawa training camp runs from May 19 to June 23 at St. George School, and the Kanata camp takes place July 6 to 10 at the Beaverbrook Community Centre.

Youth break code of silence at mental-health summit Erin McCracken
erin.mccracken@metroland.com
Youth can play a key role in helping their peers know where to turn for support and show them it’s OK to talk about mental health. This message was at the heart of a one-day youth antistigma HeadStrong summit that brought together almost 200 students from more than a dozen Ottawa-area high schools at the Royal Ottawa Mental Health Centre on May 8, coinciding with Mental Health Week, May 4 to 10. “Youth, we know from research and the work we do, talk to other youth first and foremost. They are their main supports,” said Zsofia Cook, anti-stigma promotion co-ordinator with Youth Net, a foryouth, by-youth mental health promotion, intervention and support organization at the Children’s Hospital of Eastern Ontario, which provides free mental-health programs for youth. The summit was the first of its kind in Ottawa designed
to arm kids with the insight, language and skills they need to become peer leaders, and return to their schools and share with others the different mental-health supports that are available to them. Largely funded through a grant from the Mental Health Commission of Canada, it is one of almost 24 regional antistigma summits that will have taken place across Canada by the end of the school year. In addition to doing advocacy work in their schools, it’s hoped the students will enlist the help of their peers to share the positive message. “Often students are supporting other students all on their own and they’re keeping sort of these codes of silence of not telling parents or teachers or anyone if a youth is struggling or if they are suicidal, and they feel that they need to support them on their own,” Cook said. “And what we’re saying is, ‘Hey, positive friendships are super important,’ but it’s also important to have a network of supports.”

St. Francis Xavier High School students and teacher Kellie Scrim, front left, take part in the HeadStrong mental-health summit at the Royal Ottawa Mental Health Centre on May 8, organized by CHEO’s Youth Net. The summit attendees, most of them in grades 10 and 11, learned different ways they can promote mental health in
their schools, such as creating posters and placing them in strategic areas like bathroom stall, where they can be read in
privacy. “They say that the stigma of having a mental illness is worse that the illness itself,” Cook said. “People don’t speak up, don’t seek help, don’t get support.” Mental-illness symptoms initially appear in childhood and young adolescence, and the sooner people get help, the more likely they are to recover and lead a successful life, she said. Early intervention is key, reason why opening the lines of communication and fighting the stigma is so important. “Having them even talk about it is changing that language or culture in the school, saying that it’s OK to talk about mental health,” Cook said. During the event, special guests shared their experiences with mental illness and offered the young attendees a message of hope. “They’re saying, ‘Hey, you know what? People with a mental illness aren’t crazy, aren’t dangerous,’” Cook said. “They’re just like you and me and if they can get help, they
can recover.” The teens also heard about mental-health initiatives being done in other high schools, including St. Patrick’s, St. Francis Xavier, Notre Dame, St. Pius, as well as Bell, which has been doing great work around boys’ mental health, said Cook. “We want them to be those connectors and to be the people who are saying it’s OK to talk about mental health,” she said. While positive inroads have been made to bring mentalhealth challenges and illness out from the shadows, more needs to be done. “It’s still at the beginning stages and these conversations need to continue to be had, but I think we’re well on our way to making change happen,” said Cook. Organizers are seeking external funding sources in the hopes of making the summit an annual event to reach even more students and teach them to become peer leader.

Ottawa runner to raise $50,000 for charity on Race Weekend Alex Robinson alex.robinson@metroland.com
Gavin Lumsden’s 50th marathon will be a special one. The Vanier resident, who is turning 50 this year, is set to run with 50 of his friends at the Tamarack Race Weekend on May 24 to raise $50,000 for the Boys and Girls Club. Lumsden founded a program called Walk This Way at the Boys and Girls Club, which takes children, aged seven to 16 on weekly walks to explore particular destinations. The program hopes to inspire them to lead active lifestyles while discovering places they haven’t seen before. The Vanier runner, however, did not always practice the healthy lifestyle he preaches. He had a moment many years ago, when he realized he had let himself go since he was a high school athlete. Around Christmas time one year, he decided to run to the post box without his coat on. After a 15-minute run there and back, he was bent over and winded. That was when he realized it was time to change his lifestyle. “I quit some of the bad habits right there and then,� he said.
“The next day I was driving down Bank Street and saw a sign in the window at the Running Room that said ‘Run a marathon with us.’ I decided that would be a good way to reverse my bad habits.â€? Since then he has ran marathons across the world and has become a running instructor to share the experience. In the space of four and a half years, he ran a marathon in a city starting with every letter of the alphabet –from Amsterdam to Zurich. During those runs he raised money for an endowment fund at the YMCA that would be for children who could not afford membership. His active lifestyle took him to Mount Everest with Sean Egan, a professor of human kinetics at the University of Ottawa, who tried to become the eldest Canadian to reach the summit of Mount Everest at the age of 63. He died on his way up, but left a lasting impression on Lumsden. Egan had been a ďŹ tness fanatic, who had long heralded the necessity of living an active lifestyle. When Lumsden returned from Nepal after Egan’s death in 2005, he was committed to spreading the message of active living with as many young under privileged people as possible. “If you’re raising a generation of young people who are already aficted by diseases such as heart disease and obesity, they’re already tax-
ing the health care system,â€? Lumsden said. “In many cases, these are preventable afictions that a little bit of physical activity every day can reverse.â€? He founded the Walk This Way group in 2007 with just ďŹ ve children from Vanier. The walking group now has more than 200 participants who get bused in from Boys and Girls Clubs all over the city. The program is a 14-week session, capped off by participating in a ďŹ ve-kilometre race. “If you’re a child who seldom gets to leave their own community and you train in something and then take part in a public event in which you’re cheering from complete strangers and get a shiny medal ‌ that’s a very empowering experience for young people,â€? Lumsden said. The running instructor hopes he will be able to spread his program nationwide with SUBMITTED the $50,000 goal he has set. Gavin Lumsden is set to run his 50th marathon on May 24 at the Tamarack Race Weekend “Here’s this little volunteer to raise money for the Boys and Girls Club. program that started in this little community in Ottawa and the vision is it will take hold in other Boys and Girls clubs from coast to coast,â€? Lumsden said. The Vanier resident and his friend will join thousands of runners in the Tamarack Race Weekend. Lumsden’s fundraising effort is part of the Scotiabank Charity Challenge.

Boardwalks, restaurants part of waterfront vision Emma Jackson emma.jackson@metroland.com
Picture a waterfront that combines the Ottawa River’s natural beauty with all the amenities a visitor could want: pathways, restaurants, lookouts and bathrooms. That’s what the National Capital Commission has in mind for a ninekilometre stretch of green space between Britannia and LeBreton Flats; a concept presented as part of its Urbanism Lab series on May 5. The pie-in-the-sky meeting attracted about 80 people to NCC headquarters to discuss the pros and cons of the draft plan. It’s a busy map, dotted with a long wish list of amenities and features, ranging from a bandstand on Bate Island (in the middle of the Ottawa River along the Champlain Bridge), to a pedestrian and cycling connection to Quebec along the city-owned Prince of Wales rail bridge east of Parkdale Avenue. A boardwalk jutting into the river just east of Britannia’s Mud Lake is on the books, as are a number of historical and educational features along several new trails, boat launches and lookouts, and festival space near Tunney’s Pasture. The NCC said it wants to attract commercial uses like restaurants and food trucks, and maybe even develop a Sunday market area to entice tourists and residents using the park. SUGGESTIONS
It’s got grand plans, but it’s open to other ideas, too: NCC planners were busy jotting down suggestions at each of the breakout stations throughout the night. One resident suggested installing a boat locker near the Deschenes Rapids so apartment-dwellers can lock up their canoes and kayaks on site. Another wanted to make sure
EMMA JACKSON/METROLAND
NCC planner Stephen Willis, centre, had lots to think about after more than 80 residents gathered at NCC headquarters on Elgin Street to discuss plans for a redeveloped waterfront park between Britannia and LeBreton Flats on May 5. any new facilities blend well with the natural surroundings, so they don’t create a visual blight. Others went so far as to suggest
the NCC should sell off some of its precious green space to developers, to create a better mixed-use feel at the waterfront, similar to what oth-
er successful waterfront city parks have achieved. And some residents spoke up in defence of their neighbourhoods
adjacent to the park. Woodroffe North resident Bev Binette said the side streets in her mature neighbourhood are too small to accommodate more visitor parking, particularly if the NCC goes ahead with plans to formalize more pedestrian access points across the busy parkway. “Obviously the city has expanded but the streets have not,” she said. “There has to be some consideration for the residents who live in the area.” She said the NCC and the city must work together to make sure public transit is encouraged; right now buses use the parkway but don’t actually stop to let people off. The workshop was the second the NCC has held to poll users about the linear park’s potential; the commission held a similar meeting for stakeholders and community associations last year, as well. Not much has changed in terms of what the NCC wants to see in the park, but it has gained some more green space to work with now that the city’s west-end light-rail route is going to shift parts of the Sir John A. Macdonald Parkway slightly south. That decision was part of a 100day working group tasked with finding a rail route the NCC and the city could live with, and ended up increasing the park’s area by about 38 per cent, according to NCC spokesperson Mario Tremblay. The timing of the park’s redevelopment is unclear; Tremblay said it will be completed in phases over a number of years. Workshop participants were asked to identify their priorities in a questionnaire before they left, and they used yellow stickers to show on the map what features they liked best. To take a closer look at the plans and to complete the questionnaire yourself, visit ncc.ccn.gc.ca.

Watson to call for Hydro One rate cut Mayor to ask province to match Hydro Ottawa prices inside city borders Emma Jackson emma.jackson@metroland.com
Ottawa’s Hydro One customers could pay the same rate as their urban neighbours if the city and province can reach a harmonization deal. Mayor Jim Watson plans to ask the province to reduce its rates for the 45,000 Hydro One customers who live inside city boundaries, so they’re harmonized with Hydro Ottawa. It’s not an option that has really been explored in the 15 years Ottawa has been pestering the province to sell its lucrative capital region customers, but an energy ministry spokeswoman said it’s one Energy Minister Bob Chiarelli would consider. “This is a new idea that we would be prepared to jointly
examine,” Jennifer Beaudry said in an email. The relationship hasn’t traditionally been that collaborative; Hydro Ottawa, under direction from the city, has been trying to buy Hydro One’s Ottawa customers since amalgamation in 2001, but so far the province’s asking price has been too high. ARBITRATION
Ontario has called for binding arbitration, but Watson has rejected that because it risks getting stuck with a sizeable bill that would hike hydro rates for all customers in the city. So when Cumberland Ward Coun. Stephen Blais passed a motion at council on April 29 directing the mayor to write a letter to the province ask-
ing to sell the customers in an open bidding process, Watson decided to also include rate harmonization as a “reasonable alternative.” “The provincial government says, ‘We still want to keep those customers’ ... but let’s settle on charging those people within the boundaries of Ottawa the same rate as Hydro Ottawa customers,” Watson said. Some Ottawa residents pay up to 30 per cent more for energy than their neighbours, simply because they live in Hydro One territory. Place D’Orleans mall in the east end is served by both distributors; sometimes only half of the mall loses power, depending on which provider is experiencing outages. “I think it’s profoundly unfair that a resident in Orléans is paying up to 30 per cent more than someone across the street,” Watson said. “It’s just fair and (rate harmonization) is the simplest thing to do.”

But time is of the essence to get a deal underway, since the province announced in April it would sell off up to 60 per cent of its Hydro One holdings to private investors. “My concern is if the utility is sold without this change, it’s going to be very difficult to change in the future,” Watson said. He said he would send the letter mid-May. Beaudry said Minister Chiarelli is open to “meaningful problem solving.”
Protesters gathered at the Hydro One Enough is Enough rally outside the Carling Avenue office of Liberal MPP and Energy Minister Bob Chiarelli on April 18. The protest saw angry residents from the Ottawa area speak up about the high cost of hydro in Ontario. FILE

Marking the day To mark the 70th anniversary of VE-Day (Victory in Europe), professional re-enactors staged a mock battle between Canadian and German forces on the grounds of Queen Juliana Park. A military encampment, complete with period equipment, was set up outside the cordoned-off battle zone, where the re-enactors wielded period Bren light machine guns, Lee-Enfield rifles and Sten submachine guns. The park is located adjacent to the tulip beds of Commissioners Park, where the Ottawa Tulip Festival was in full swing. STEPH WILLEMS/METROLAND

City to spray invasive wild parsnips this summer Emma Jackson emma.jackson@metroland.com

She was weeding around the village sign in preparation for Canada Day when the plant brushed against her legs, leaving angry red lines and clusters of tiny blisters. “It was like a very extreme sunburn,” Sheldrick said. “The one spot was like a line, you could tell exactly where the leaf or the stem had rubbed across my leg.” Sheldrick is one of many Ottawa residents who have fallen victim to the wild parsnip, a newly-classified noxious weed that hangs out in ditches and fields just waiting for you to accidentally touch its toxic sap. That sap, when combined with UV rays, can cause angry rashes, painful blisters and long-term skin discolouration. Now the city hopes to return the favour with a new program to zap the invasive plant with herbicides beginning as early as mid-May. The agriculture and rural affairs office approved a new wild parsnip man-
agement strategy on May 7, including a plan to test several chemicals to help the city blast the plant into submission. The yellow weed – which looks a bit like Queen Anne’s Lace – has become a huge nuisance in Ottawa, concentrating along more than 200 kilometres of rural roads in the past decade and encroaching upon an unknown number of pathways, parks and woodlots. It grows as expected: like a weed. The parsnip is a hearty plant that can spread its hundreds of seeds on the wind and can’t be killed by a lawnmower. It can crowd out natural vegetation, reducing biodiversity in rural areas. Right now the invasion is largely restricted to areas near Manotick, Barrhaven, Stittsville and Kanata, but public works general manager Kevin Wylie said it’s increasingly prevalent east of the Rideau River too. His staff are going to update their spring 2014 map this summer to include parks and pathways, and he said he expects to see even more wild parsnip cropping up than last year. The province only added the plant to its noxious weeds list in January, so there’s little research into how
CITY OF OTTAWA/SUBMITTED
Wild parsnip is now common along rural roadsides as the noxious weed has spread into the city’s southwestern reaches. various herbicides affect the plant. Up until now, Ottawa has opted for an aggressive mowing schedule along roadsides, cutting into ditches and sometimes to the fence line to limit the parsnip’s spread. That will be expanded this year to keep growth rates down, but it won’t eradicate the plant.
SAVE ANYWHERE.
“Mowing in and of itself is not going to solve the problem,” Wylie said. “The mowers we use do a good job of taking the growth down but we can’t get down to the base.” That’s where the chemical warfare comes in. Herbicides have been used with success in other municipalities, including in Stormont, Dundas and
Glengarry and Leeds-Grenville just south of Ottawa. Leeds-Grenville began a pilot project last year with an herbicide called Clearview, which targets broadleaf plants without killing the surrounding grass. SD&G leaves it up to its contractor to decide what chemical is used. Wylie said the city is working with Ottawa Public Health and the province to determine what herbicides it will test this summer, and where. He said contractors will begin spraying before the end of June, when the parsnip begins to flower. Most problem areas will be targeted, but contractors will stay away from populated places, he added. “Some areas that are close to Barrhaven and especially areas where there could be kids in the field we’ll be doing aggressive mowing,” he said. The spraying could still take place in front of rural properties, though, and Wylie said homeowners can opt out by calling the city. Wild parsnip sightings can also be reported by calling the city’s 311 information line. The city has allocated $100,000 in its budget for the 2015 program.

New House of Sport on the table for Ottawa Tourism, arts all part of city’s new economic strategy Emma Jackson emma.jackson@metroland.com
Ottawa is hoping a House of Sport will help the city retain national sporting associations – and the major events they bring with them. City planners included the suggestion in an updated economic development strategy for 2015 to 2018 called Partnerships for Innovation, which focuses as much on fostering arts, sports and tourism as it does on attracting and retaining big business. The strategy, presented May 5 to the city’s finance committee, has four pillars: investment attraction, entre-
preneurship, tourism development, and research tools. Under the tourism heading, the city will facilitate a House of Sport – a sort of commune for national sporting associations to share space and resources – within the next year, according to economic development manager Saad Bashir. It’s as important to the city’s well-being as attracting multi-national corporations, Bashir said, because the sporting associations can play a major role in bringing national and international competitions to the city, like the 2015 FIFA Women’s World Cup this summer and the Roar of the Rings Olympic curling qualifier in 2018. Other big cities are eyeing the organizations for exactly that reason, Bashir said. The house would bring not-for-profit national organizations under one roof, where they could potentially split the costs of everything from rent and utilities to
possibly even staff. The hub would also create a visible and welcoming sports space in the city, Bashir said. Along with bringing money-making events to Ottawa, the house could cut costs for smaller associations, which often can’t afford enough space to showcase their stars and flagship events. “Most of them are quite small. They’re not set up in a professional environment,” Bashir said. Ottawa’s list of national sport groups is long and varied, including such activities as five-pin bowling, synchronized swimming, diving, baseball, badminton, canoeing, fencing, gymnastics, horseback riding, squash, soccer, waterskiing and volleyball. Athletics Canada, the Canadian Paralympic Committee, the Commonwealth Games Association of Canada and the Canadian Wheelchair Sports Association are also headquartered here. Bashir said his office is

The FIFA Women’s World Cup mascot Shuéme, a snowy owl, is getting ready to welcome the international soccertournament to Ottawa later this summer. The city has had some success attracting major sporting events in the past decade – a trend staff hope will continue with a new House of Sport. already working out the details as to what groups are interested, how much space they would need, where the house should be located and how cost-sharing details would work. He said there’s conflicting ideas regarding location: some groups want access to lots of parking, while others want to be close to the hubbub of downtown. Being close to the airport or a major highway is also an important consideration, he said. The house would likely be facilitated by the city and Ottawa Tourism but maintained by the groups. It’s not the only sportrelated item in the strategy, either. The Canadian Curling Association is also considering building a centre of excellence. TALENT ATTRACTION
The new strategy puts renewed emphasis on attracting and retaining large
corporations, and to that end staff suggests the city start a site selector program to help market the city to prospectors, and to actively promote employment lands in an effort to reduce long-term commercial vacancy rates. But most of the discussion around the committee table focused on talent attraction, particularly bringing young professionals to the city. Capital Coun. David Chernushenko said the city needs to make sure the city is an exciting, liveable city. “Bike lanes, multi-use pathways, parks, plazas, theatre districts (have) become the most important magnet for attracting young employees who essentially could go anywhere,” he said. “I’m sure they could get a better salary in Abu Dhabi, but they might want to live in Ottawa for a variety of lifestyle reasons.” Planners said it’s partly a matter of marketing those facilities that already do exist in the city.

Other new initiatives in the strategy include: • support for the city’s music industry • connecting foreign companies with the information they need to establish in Ottawa • marketing Kanata as a technology hub • pilot programs to test local inventions • increased focus on cycling tourism • a data partnership program to help BIAs, research groups and businesses share market information. While the new programs are billed as “sample initiatives,” Bashir said once the plan has council approval most of the items will get done. “If we say we’re going to do something, chances are we’re going to do it,” he said. Funding for the new initiatives will be largely covered by the economic development office’s $7-million budget.

Joy and relief greet news of successful heart transplant Brian Dryden
brian.dryden@metroland.com
Greely’s Jim Maveety took his first few steps as a new man last week, his first steps on the road to recovery after a heart transplant that his family and friends have been waiting a long time for. “He’s doing amazingly well,” said Maveety’s mother-in-law Lynn McPherson. “It’s just a very happy time for us. “It was his birthday in April and his rebirth was May 1.” Although the recovery process will be a long one, and Maveety is expected to remain in hospital for a few more weeks before he can return home to his wife Marah and two children, his friends and family are relieved that the stress of waiting and hoping is finally over. “When the call came it was almost surreal,” said McPherson of when her daughter Marah got the call to say a heart was available
for Jim to undergo the needed transplant. “We were at the hospital in 45 minutes,” she said. “It was meant to be.” Maveety’s heart troubles began 14 years ago, when he was 31. He came down with a bad cold, which turned into pneumonia. That infection attacked his heart. For the next decade Maveety remained in relatively good health. He slept more than usual, but his family chalked that up to his job working into the wee hours. About three years ago his health started to decline, but Maveety continued to work. Two years ago he was put on the heart transplant list with the hope that he would soon be able to put this behind him once and for all. And then the long wait, and with that uncertainty financial issues arose as Jim couldn’t work anymore. That’s when many people in the Greely community and surrounding region got
involved with fundraisers to help the family financially, and just as importantly, to offer emotional support. Janet Crain, who first met the Maveetys through the Gloucester Rangers hockey team, on which their sons both play, helped organize fundraisers and also set up a supportive website called Jim’s Hearts. The website followed Maveety’s journey as he awaited a new heart, and also raises awareness about the need for organ donors. “It is great news for sure,” Crain said of the transplant. “Jim and Marah had been waiting more than two years. The first thought was joy, but it was immediately followed by sorrow for the family who was brave enough to donate their loved one’s organs.” “Jim and Marah have a huge community of supporters who have been in their corner for a long time – it says a lot about Jim and Marah, and the fabulous people that they are,” Crain
said of the way the community has rallied around the family. ENCOURAGING DONATION
“Jim’s new story has just begun, so we’ll celebrate that for a while and figure out where to go from here,” Crain said. “Until organ donation is something that we all consider as a given, our job is not done. We hope people are even more inspired by Jim’s story now and sign up to be an organ donor.” According to the Trillium Gift of Life Network, Ontario’s organ donation agency, only 25 per cent of the eligible population is registered on the organ donor list. To register as an organ donor or to check if you’re on the list, visit beadonor.ca. The fundraising page for the Maveety family is youcaring.com/jimshearts. Submitted

A conversation with Sens GM Bryan Murray Scott Campbell
scottcampbell@metroland.com
The Senators surprise late-season rise to become a contender could be said to mirror Murray’s rise to one of the NHL’s best-known hockey minds. Bryan is one of 10 children of Clarence and Rhoda Murray. He has great memories of growing up on a farm just outside of Shawville. “We did rafting and getting turtles … Lots of things young people should experience at some point in their life; unfortunately today it is not quite the same.” Murray also had time to play lots of pond hockey on the farm, both before and after school. If any of the Murray boys wanted to play hockey in town at the arena, they had to walk. “Nobody ever drove any-

Ottawa Senators General Manager Bryan Murray body,” he said. “So you put the skates and equipment bag over your shoulder, you walked in and after the game you played, you walked out. We didn’t expect otherwise.” Indoor hockey was not very common for Murray until he was about 14 or 15 years old. “It wasn’t really organized minor hockey. We had teams, played Bristol, Radford. Once in a while we get a game in Ottawa and that was a big moment in our lives.” Despite his love for hockey, Murray enjoyed another sport even more. “My favorite and probably my best sport was baseball. I was a baseball pitcher. I was a pretty good hockey player, but if I would have been an American, probably would have a chance to play more baseball.” Although he played for the Smith Falls Bears in junior hockey and had a couple of tryouts with Guelph of the Ontario Hockey League, Murray left hockey to become a teacher and then part owner of a sporting goods store and a hotel-tavern in
Shawville. The pull of hockey remained, and Murray had coaching stints with the Rockland Nationals and the Pembroke Lumber Kings in the Canadian Junior Hockey League, now the CCHL. “Out of the blue I got a call from Regina to be interviewed for the Regina Pats job. I thought I owed it to myself to at least interview,” said Murray. “I did that and they offered me the job and I said to Geri, I’ll just go for one year and try full-time and see how it goes. I left them to run the hotel and (Regina) of course won the championship (in the 197980 season).” That led him on a path that ended in the NHL. “I guess one year turned into a lot of years later,” he said. “The one thing I have to say is Geri and (daughter) Heide, who was young at that time, I moved them around a bit but they were very openminded to doing it. Certainly 35 and 36 years later, I’m still doing it.”

The story of the 2014-15 Ottawa Senators season has intrigued many hockey fans. There were disappointments, surprise twists and players who unexpectedly took starring roles. The result was a record run to a playoff sport that made NHL history. Overlooking it all was the club’s Valley-raised general manager Bryan Murray. “By Christmastime we were in a mediocre mode and not really in contention,” said Murray during a visit to Shawville, Que., near Renfrew. “We made a coaching change, changed our philosophy a little bit on how we are going to play the game and I saw improvement. We played better, but we weren’t winning on a consistent basis. I knew we were going to have a struggle to make the playoffs. “All of sudden we had two goaltenders get hurt and we had an incredible run. Andrew Hammond came in and played great. I thought we were a playoff team and then we became a playoff team but in a very different fashion than what was ever suggested.”

Sage words about player development, cancer prevention weekends. Is he going to be an NHL player at 12 years of age? Not likely. Give him a couple more years. There’s always been good minor hockey in the Valley, let them play there.”
Continued from page 39
Murray come back to Ottawa to coach the Senators in 2004. “It was home,” said Murray. “My plan was to coach three years in Ottawa and retire … that was going to be the end of it. Mom and dad were still around and family was here. I thought it was a perfect place to finish up. “After three years, we went to the Cup final in 2007 and again (I was offered) by the owner to take over and become the GM and here I am still working.” Despite being the Senators GM, the coach in him has never really disappeared. Murray still works on line combinations, match-ups and makes notes every game on what he thinks should happen and not happen. “I never tell the coach who to play or how to play them. I do suggest things to them to do on the ice better or maybe what I like about a certain player versus another player,” he says.
SHARING THE CANCER MESSAGE
Murray continues to devote himself to the Senators despite a fight with cancer. He made File waves last November when in GM Bryan Murray expects some adjustments to the team a TSN interview he publicly disclosed he was battling the will be made this summer. disease. “But I think keeping tabs on with that,” said Murray. “When “It was hard on my famwhat’s going on where players you are 14, if you figure and ily,” said Murray. “They didn’t performances is concerned, or your parents figure you’re a want to hear after the fact that individual performance versus star and you have a chance to every time there was an article the team play overall, that’s go to the city to play AAA, written saying it was terminal that’s OK.” part of my obligation too.” cancer, I didn’t have a long life Murray has received calls expectancy. But I thought it Murray has some advice for local players and their parents. about young players, one was really important to share “If you are from a small about a 12-year-old boy from that I missed the boat on the town and even if you are going Pembroke who was given colonoscopies.

I thought it
was important for me to share that. Geri (wife), Brittany and Heide (daughters) all kind of agreed after the fact.” He says the response to the message has been outstanding. It has reached well beyond the Ottawa area to other NHL cities. People have called Murray to say thanks because in heeding his advice they have caught cancer early while still treatable. He has received messages from wives saying he has saved their husbands’ lives. When he went to a new Ottawa Gastrointestinal Institute clinic in Ottawa to get a checkup, “the doctor told me the day I was on TSN, 150 men called for appointment,” he said. Murray plans to work with the institute to help get their message out. The cancer diagnosis has required Murray to make adjustments to his working life – this past season he didn’t travel with the Ottawa Senators as much as he usually did. SENS CHANGES LIKELY
Yet, he is not ready to step away from the game just yet. He’s already looking ahead to the summer months where there will be necessary tweaks to the team, despite the remarkable run to the playoffs. “We have five free agents to sign,” he said. “We have to make a couple adjustments I think in our lineup. Hopefully we will be able to acquire maybe one more experienced player that would help us (but) that is obviously difficult to do. “I think we have some assets that some teams might like and if we could work it the right way we might do it (add a talented veteran),” he added. “Beyond that, I told the players, each and every one of them, to have a great summer. Work out and make sure you are stronger because of the youth of our group. “I think the summer is going to be critical that some of them get better, stronger. “When they come back, the experience of this past year should be really beneficial.”

Jeopardy! host unveils uOttawa alumni hall Alex Robinson alex.robinson@metroland.com
Despite having hosted one of the most widely-watched game shows in the United States for decades, Alex Trebek never forgot his academic roots at the University of Ottawa. The Jeopardy! star swung through the university’s campus on May 5 to unveil a brand new alumni hall, bearing his name. Trebek graduated from uOttawa with a degree in philosophy before ascending to a career in broadcasting and becoming a nightly fixture in living rooms across North America. The new alumni hall sits across the street from Tabaret Hall, a building where Trebek slept when he was a boarder at prep school. Every time Trebek visits his old stomping grounds, memories and names of people from that time come flowing back to him. “If you believe as I do that your character forms to a great extent in adolescence, then mine was formed right here,” he said at a ceremony, marking the opening of the building. “We students were a true band of

Jeopardy! host Alex Trebek speaks at a ceremony unveiling a new University of Ottawa alumni hall, bearing his name. The hall was partly funded by some of a $2.4-million donation Trebek gave to his alma mater. brothers.” Trebek fondly recalled friends and priests who had taught him at the prep school.
Back in those days, Trebek said he dreamed of one day becoming a pilot, doctor or prime minister. “You guys don’t have to be rocket

scientists to realize I have achieved none of those ambitions. I am a failure,” he said. The Alex Trebek Alumni Hall is in two renovated heritage buildings, the former house of Thomas Foran, uOttawa’s first alumnus, and the Maison Gaston-Héon. The building will provide the university’s alumni with a place to meet and is the first of its kind on campus. The hall was paid for in part with some of a $2.4 million donation Trebek gave to the university. University President Allan Rock praised Trebek’s charitable endeavours, such as the work he has done with World Vision. “In these efforts, and so many like them over the years, Alex has worked away quietly, away from the cameras, away from the spotlight – making a true and lasting difference,” Rock said. “We’re so grateful his generosity extends to his alma mater at the University of Ottawa.” Trebek’s contributions have also funded the Alex Trebek Distinguished Lecture Series, a number of talks from speakers around the world. Trebek criticized the way some American schools brand themselves
as liberal or conservative, saying it limits them and works to their disadvantage. “I hope this kind of labelling will never happen to the University of Ottawa,” he said. “We should welcome all points of view, especially those that disagree with our own. I’m very encouraged by the new Alex Trebek series of lectures that will bring very different points of view from all over the world to our doorstep here in Canada’s capital.” The speaker series was set to kick off on May 8 on the grounds of Tabaret Hall with a talk by New York Times columnist Thomas Friedman. “I should also like to point out Thomas Friedman was a contestant on celebrity jeopardy and he didn’t win his game,” Trebek said to laughter. “I am forced to regrettably repeat my remarks of a few moments ago. It grieves me the University of Ottawa is honouring another failure. I sincerely hope this is not the beginning of a trend.” After speaking, Trebek unveiled a wall in the alumni hall, commemorating some of his accomplishments, which include Emmy, Peabody and World Vision awards.

Hi. My name’s Gladys. I’m 10 years old and a happy fur baby to my Mom & Dad. I have my own “fan club” composed of family friends who always want me to come and stay with them so we can go for walks and play. I love to run and chase the squirrels and I’m very social so I really enjoy meeting other puppies and cats too. I also help with security and bark whenever anyone comes to my house. I love to have my belly rubbed and follow my parents around the house always ready for a cuddle too.

second chance at finding a forever home. Conditions may include food allergies needing a special diet, thyroid conditions requiring regular, though inexpensive, medication, or heart murmurs that probably need nothing more than annual monitoring. All pets need to visit the vet to stay healthy, not just those
with special needs. But some people see the words “special needs” and move on to the next cat, passing by wonderful pets without a second look, without taking the time to learn about the kitty behind the label. Visit the OHS to speak with adoption staff about whether a special needs pet is right for you.
Please note: The Ottawa Humane Society has many other companion animals available for adoption. Featured animals are adopted quickly! To learn more about adopting an animal from the Ottawa Humane Society please contact us:

Bass Pro planned for Kanata canned Brier Dodge and Adam Kveton brier.dodge@metroland.com
Bass Pro Shop won’t be setting up shop in Kanata after all. The decision was confirmed by Bass Pro spokeswoman Mary Mardis on May 4. While customer service representatives from the company responded to customer inquiries on May 4 that the Kanata store was in the works for a 2017 opening, Mardis confirmed the project wouldn’t be going ahead. “We are not moving forward with the Kanata store at this time,” she said in an email In February, Bass Pro said they were still planning on establishing the Kanata store, despite the announcement that Cabela’s, another major outfitter chain, was also going
to Kanata. Cabela’s is planned for the west side of the new Tanger Outlets shopping centre and north of the Canadian Tire Centre in a Taggart Realty Management development. Bass Pro announced in late 2013 that it would be anchoring a 210,437square-metre Broccolini Construction development, on the east side of the new Tanger Outlets shopping centre, saying it planned to open in 2015. “Is Cabela’s still coming?” said Arnprior’s Scott Coady, an active hunter and fisherman, when he heard about the Bass Pro cancellation. “That’s my first reaction, but that’s too bad, because (Bass Pro) is a fantastic establishment. “It would have been interesting and a little strange to have both
(Cabela’s and Bass Pro) so close together. It’s too bad Bass Pro isn’t coming, but as long as we have one outdoor superstore on the west end, that’s great and I’m happy.” The proximity of the two outdoor outfitters was not a problem, said Bass Pro spokeswoman Katie Mitchell in February, after saying Bass Pro still intended to open in Kanata. “We are in lots of markets that also have Cabela’s close by, so I don’t think Cabela’s has a bearing one way or the other on whether or not we put a store there,” she said. However, Kanata North Coun. Marianne Wilkinson said in February that she had doubts the U.S. retailer would stick with their original plans in light of Cabela’s announcement. See DEVELOPER, page 63

Laughter &
Chocolate
It’s no surprise laughter is one of life’s best medicines. Laughter helps release feelgood hormones like serotonin which is our happy hormone and oxytocin which is our cuddle hormone. It helps to reduce the stress hormones and releases
endorphins to reduce pain. Laughter also increases the release of nitric oxide from the lining of blood vessels which helps to reduce blood pressure, and improve heart health. Chocolate also helps to release our feel good hormones serotonin and oxytocin. They say it also makes the heart grow fonder! So live, laugh and love chocolate!
Eat this, don’t
Eat That
How do you really know what good healthy eating is? What is nutrition? Nutrition is the science that interprets the interaction of nutrients and other substances in food (e.g. phytonutrients, anthocyanin, tannins, etc.) in relation to maintenance, growth, reproduction, health and disease of an organ. Healthy eating is an important part of a healthy lifestyle, it will keep you looking good and feeling great. Here are some simple tips to get you started on the right path to healthy eating: Go for whole grains which are higher in vitamins, minerals and phytonutrients. Load up on fruits and vegetables which are packed with nutrients and fiber.
1 cup pecans, pre-soaked in water 30 min+, drained, optional) 5 medjool dates, pitted ½ cup cacao powder 1 Tbsp extra virgin coconut oil (EVCO), melted
Choose dairy products with protein, calcium and B vitamins. Go with lean meats which are a good source of protein, iron, zinc and other nutrients. Choose healthier fats and oils (avocados, seeds, olive oil, flaxseed or nuts oil) to add flavour to food and help your body absorb some nutrients.
1. Add pecans to a blender and process until crumbly. Add dates, cacao powder, EVCO and vanilla. Continue to process until all mixed. Divide mixture into 6 desert glasses and press firmly to form a crust on the bottom. 2. Add bananas, coconut milk, cashews and melted chocolate chips into a blender and blend until creamy and smooth. Transfer banana mixture to desert glasses on top of crust. Decorate with a sprinkle of remaining chocolate chips. Refrigerate 1-2 hours or until firm. You can also make this recipe into a pie!

Mini Chocolate Shooters
Sometimes you just want a “chocolate fix”! Indulge guilt free in this blend of pecans and chocolate for a healthy fountain of youth treat. Pecans are high in healthy unsaturated fat and just a handful a day can lower “bad” cholesterol. They also contain more than 19 vitamins and minerals including vitamins A, B, and E, folic acid, calcium, magnesium, phosphorus, potassium, and zinc. Plus pecans give you 21% of your daily iron needs.
3 bananas 1-13.5 oz. (398 ml) can coconut milk (full fat) 1 ½ cup cashews, raw (pre-soaked in water 30 min+, drained, optional) 1 cup chocolate chips, melted (reversing a few for garnishing)

At least 1,000 people expected to flock to Bird Day Fair Popular bird festival to return for third year Megan DeLaire
mdelaire@metroland.com
Birds of a feather flock together, and so do people who care about birds. At least they can at Andrew Haydon Park in Nepean on May 30 for Ottawa’s third annual Bird Day Fair. The Bird Day Fair is organized in cities across the nation by Nature Canada for International Migratory Bird Day, an initiative of Environment for the Americas. It is intended both to celebrate the return of native migratory birds, and to increase awareness of the importance of conservation to those birds and their habitats, something this year’s theme Restoring Habitats, Restoring Birds alludes to. “We are trying to connect people with the nature that’s around them,” said organizer Sarah Kirkpatrick. “Since more than 80 percent of people live in urban areas, that mainly means connecting people with urban nature. Because there are really great opportunities for conservation in urban centres and there’s also amazing
wildlife.” Kirkpatrick expects at least 1,000 people to attend this year but admits that’s a conservative estimate, given that last year’s event drew just under 1,000 people, a significant increase from the first year’s 250. Kirkpatrick said the trick to drawing bigger crowds is to pay attention to what people like and improve on it each year. “We learned so much from the first event. So we had a much better layout for the second event and we had a better idea of what people were interested in and we focused on those things more,” Kirkpatrick said. “And this year we really want to expand on that. So we want to take the things that people enjoy the most and expand on those things. The guided walks are a huge hit.” BIRDS OF PREY
Some of this year’s attractions and activities include appearances by endangered birds of prey, ferrets, snakes, turtles, an amphibian and a fox; as well as guided bird-sighting tours through the park, live music, and panel presentations by experts on local birds and ecology. The fair will also host a ceremony

and it’s a beautiful site,” Kilpatrick said. “There’s a lot of through traffic, people are already familiar with it, and it’s easy to get to. We’ve really enjoyed having it at that site.” In order to help patrons get to the fair on May 30, OC Transpo will provide a free shuttle bus between Bayshore Shopping Centre and Andrew Haydon Park.

Bird watchers take note; Nature Canada says these birds can typically be spotted in Andrew Haydon Park during the spring months: Susanne Ure/Submitted
Alexandra Belzile of Falcon-Ed shows off the organization’s barn owl at the 2014 Ottawa Bird Day Fair. to announce the unofficial bird of Ottawa as voted for by the public through a poll on CBC’s website. In addition to popular programming, Kirkpatrick attributed some of the event’s success to its location within Andrew Haydon Park, an accessible portion of Ottawa’s important bird area. BirdLife International defines an important bird area as a
discrete site that supports threatened birds, large groups of birds, and birds restricted by range or by habitat. Ottawa’s Lac Deschenes-Ottawa River important bird area covers 45 kilometres of land and wetland along the Ottawa River between Chaudiere dam and the Chats Falls generating station. “Andrew Haydon Park is great because it’s in this important bird area

‘Don’t plan any vacation outside the city in 2017’ Brier Dodge
brier.dodge@metroland.com
The 150th anniversary of Canada will engage communities and fund projects throughout the city via a not-for-profit organization that will be formed. Guy Laflamme, head of Ottawa 2017, made the announcement to community members at the Cardinal Creek Community Association annual general meeting on May 7. He said the organization will report to a board of directors co-chaired by Mayor Jim Watson. “At this stage, we’re at the critical phase of securing the funding from the province, the city and from the private sector,” he said. Laflamme said organizers will start to meet with community organizations in six to eight months, once funding is secured for community initiatives. Besides projects aimed at increasing tourism, the Ottawa 2017 group will aim to enhance the quality of life in communities. Laflamme said there will be several signature “blockbuster events,” and also funding for community grassroots activities. “We want to move forward with assisting with more community gardens, community kitchens, moving markets, to help people in need and assist people with more access to produce.” Cardinal Creek is in the process of building its own children’s community garden. “We will also have a series of activities with more serous objectives, in terms of promoting active living, healthy lifestyles,” Laflamme said. He said the goal is to engage all the residents in all wards in different ways. “If we can manage to achieve our funding objective we will change the way people see Ottawa,” he said. “Don’t plan any vacation outside the city in 2017.”
TOURISM
While Laflamme said the majority of funds will go towards services and programs for the public, the event will also aim to increase tourism in 2017 and beyond. “The goal set by Mayor Watson is to make sure this isn’t just a one-year thing, but to make sure this results in lasting benefits and becomes the new baseline in lasting tourism.” He told community association members to expect to have their homes packed with visitors to the city for the 2017 celebrations. “This will result into boosting the level of pride in our citizens, confidence in our business leaders, but also contribute to an enhanced quality of life in our community.” He also said a new, revamped website is due to launch by mid-May at ottawa2017.ca.

City review of parking minimums underway City considers reducing, eliminating requirements in urban core Emma Jackson
emma.jackson@metroland.com
All options are on the table as the city considers reducing or eliminating the number of parking spaces required in new urban developments. Right now the city requires different levels of parking depending on the development’s size, use, location and external factors like its proximity to a transit hub or traditional main street. The current requirements largely align with most North American cities, and haven’t had a major overhaul since the 1960s. But the 2013 Official Plan directed staff to review its parking requirements in an effort to minimize the amount of land devoted to parking in high-density areas and near main streets and transit corridors, and to encourage people to get out of their cars. The city published a discussion paper on May 4 outlining the options for addressing the matter. Those range from getting rid of all parking minimums entirely, to exempting
some uses and not others, to maintaining the status quo. The changes would apply to most of the urban core, from parts of Bay Ward in the west over to Beaconhill-Cyrville Ward in the east to as far south in some places as the airport. It’s not an unprecedented move. The city already exempts or reduces parking requirements for some developments, like the first 150 square metres of a commercial building fronting on a traditional main street, which doesn’t have to provide any parking. Offices and residential developments near transit corridors can also apply for reduced parking requirements under the current rules. But some Canadian cities have taken this practice further: Moncton and Winnipeg, for example, don’t require any parking for new developments in their downtowns. Toronto restaurants don’t need to provide any if they’re on a transit corridor or a commercial main street. Total elimination is one way to do it, but the city’s report also outlines other approaches, like
File
The city is reviewing its parking requirements for new developments downtown, in light of an Official Plan direction to encourage less reliance on cars, particularly near transit corridors and main streets. exempting small businesses so they can more easily afford to open shops downtown. “Having to provide any parking at all can make a small site or development completely unviable,” the report states. Larger corporations can more easily absorb that cost. Another approach would be to reduce the parking ratios: for example, instead of requiring
2.5 spots for every 100 square metres of office space, the city could opt to only require 1.5 spaces – bringing the amount of parking for a 10,000-squaremetre building down from 250 to 150 spots. Of course, there’s always the option of granting reductions and exemptions on a case-by-case basis, and the report also leaves the door open
to maintaining the status quo – although the Official Plan is clear in its direction to reduce the amount of new parking being built downtown, whether that’s through changes to minimums, maximums or other means. The debate will likely be a contentious one as the city gears up for a public open house in the fall, with recommendations expected to come to council in early 2016. That’s partly because it’s a fine balance between making sure customers can access businesses and supporting a shift away from reliance on cars. Somerset Coun. Catherine McKenney identified that conundrum at a transportation committee meeting on May 6, when Little Italy’s parking demands were up for discussion. She said she readily supports reducing the amount of residential parking required for high-density developments like condo towers, because residents can ideally walk to the services they need. But she rejected calls to eliminate visitor parking, because that could flood area side streets with extra cars, making it harder for customers to access businesses and potentially ruining the walkable atmosphere of the commercial area.
Dalhousie Community Association president Michael Powell was more straightforward in his opinion on minimums, particularly for small businesses: get rid of them. He said enforcing a parking minimum for a small business is not only cost prohibitive, it can also negatively impact the neighbourhood if it welcomes more drivers to the area. “Two complaints we get are that people want to see more local services and shops, but they are also concerned about traffic and parking in their neighbourhood,” Powell said. He said he’d like to see more innovation and creativity in how the city moves people in and out of downtown areas, including more money for cycling and pedestrian infrastructure. “You have to make sure that other ways of getting around are real and viable options,” he said. “You have to make sure you’re using all of your resources appropriately.” The city’s discussion paper can be found at ottawa.ca/ minimum parking. Feedback can be sent to tim.moerman@ ottawa.ca. A public open house is planned for the fall. A request for comment from city staff on the issue was declined.

Barrels had countless uses
W
hy we got so many barrels from Scots Hardware in Renfrew was a mystery to me. It seemed to me they were used in the store for other purposes before we got them. I would see barrels of nails, pieces of harness, and countless other things stored in them in the big store. Father would pick one up regularly, and they served a host of uses for us as well. We salted down pork and sauerkraut in the fall, and Father always had several lined up in the drive shed where they held everything from wire lengths, to pieces of harness and scraps of wood. And of course, there were always barrels at each corner of the house to catch the rainwater, which Mother used for Monday’s washings and for our Saturday night baths. Then there was the day Father came home from Renfrew with a spanking new barrel from Scots Hardware. He told no one in particular, as he unloaded it off the wagon, that it was the sturdiest barrel he had seen in
MARY COOK Memories
a long time, well worth the 50 cents he had to pay for it. He set it behind the drive shed, ready for whatever use he had planned for it. Tapping it with the palm of his hand, as if it was a young filly he had just gained in a trade, he said again, “yup, well worth the 50 cents.” Ronny eyed the barrel and went over to bend towards the inside of it. The young cousins had arrived from Montreal earlier for their usual summer stay, and time on our hands was starting to take its toll on the mischievous lad who could never seem to keep out of trouble. He slid to the end of the drive shed like a fox going into the hen house,
and saw that Father had gone on to other chores. “Give me a hand, Mary,” he ordered. “I will do nothing of the sort, Ronny Lapointe,” I said. “Whatever you have in mind, forget it this instant. Father just bought that barrel and he’ll kill us if anything happens to it.” Ronny said I was scared of my own shadow, and besides what he was planning wasn’t going to hurt the barrel one bit. He started to roll the barrel away from the drive shed. He had a dickens of a time trying to keep it rolling straight. Terry of course usually ignored by his older brother was right there putting his little hands on the barrel as if Ronny couldn’t roll it without him. He was heading for the gully that led to the creek. I had no idea what he had in mind, but I knew perfectly well, with his mind, it was some dastardly trick that we would pay dearly for later. You would have thought I had
learned my lesson from previous antics, and simply walked away. Hadn’t experience taught me that every time Ronny got into trouble I got into trouble too? The barrel was gathering speed, as it wobbled from side to side down into the gully, with Ronny in hot pursuit. It was a hard push, and by the time we reached the top of the hill, the perspiration was pouring off Ronny’s face. He was chewing us out for not helping him push the barrel. I still had no idea what he was up to. But I didn’t have to wait long. He got down on one knee and looked over the top of the barrel down the hill. He told Terry, who was too young to know any better, to crawl in the barrel that he had a real treat in store for him. Terry, who thought a treat meant candy or ice cream, did exactly what he was told. Then the picture of what Ronny had in mind unfolded right before my eyes. He was going to send Terry careening down the West Hill in Father’s brand new 50 cent barrel. Terry crawled in head first, and Ronny told him to put his knees under his chin. He was tiny enough to do it. And then Ronny gave the barrel a mighty shove and it went careening
down the hill. There wasn’t a murmur from the barrel and I was sure wee Terry had died of fright. But the worst was yet to come. The barrel was not going in a straight line, but it was travelling like a speeding bullet. I yelled that if it hit the Bonnecherre Terry would drown. But it was heading right for the big maple tree and there was nothing to save it from the crash that followed. It split into a million pieces and Terry lay there as if he was dead. We tore down the hill and Ronny said the barrel did exactly what he thought it would do, but that he was a little off on his figuring. He said he figured it should have missed the tree. Terry crawled off the mess of splintered barrel staves, and it looked like he didn’t have a scratch on him. It was a long time since I saw Father so mad, he was swearing in German, chewing on his pipe, and making a grab for Ronny. There was no saving the 50 cent barrel. It would join the kindling in the wood box in the summer kitchen. Since I had nothing to do with the caper, I thought it was mighty unjust that I was punished along with Ronny for just being in the wrong place at the wrong time.

Developer says little on Bass Pro replacement Continued from page 47
Taggart’s vice president of development, Jeff Parkes, also had doubts about Bass Pro, questioning if the store was thinking twice about opening so close to a Cabela’s. “We are certainly disappointed,” said Broccolini Construction’s vice-president of real estate in Ottawa, Bob Perkins, on May 5. The developer was working to bring Bass Pro to their site in
Kanata. “A lot of people obviously are interested in that type of use and we are certainly disappointed and certainly a lot of people that we speak to are disappointed that they are not coming to Kanata.” Perkins said he does not know if Bass Pro is looking at other sites in Ottawa, but said Broccolini is working with another large-scale retailer to replace Bass Pro as an anchor for their Kanata
retail location. He said the new store is not an outdoor outfitter, but is a recognizable name, adding he couldn’t comment further as the deal has not yet solidified. Perkins said he hoped to have construction on the Kanata site start in early 2016. The closest Bass Pro Shop to Ottawa is at Vaughan Mills in Vaughan, Ont. Ottawa will be the second Ontario Cabela’s location, with the first location in Barrie.

BeaverTails opens city’s second year-round store at Tanger Adam Kveton
adam.kveton@metroland.com
Ottawa’s most famous tasty treat has set up shop at Tanger Outlets in Kanata. BeaverTails is preparing for the grand opening of their second year-round location in Ottawa, and their first in the west end of the city with a store at Tanger Outlets. And it could soon grow to offer a grander BeaverTails
menu than any other location in the city, said the company’s founder, Grant Hooker. After 15 years of looking for a second year-round location, Hooker said the company settled on Tanger after a 40day test period at the mall in the fall of 2014. “It was surprisingly good,” said Hooker of the Tanger location, adding that he feels the new BeaverTails shop will have an 80 per cent chance of
working out for the company. “We really believe that it will be well accepted and well used,” he said. The location opened the weekend of May 2, operating Friday to Sunday, though operating days will be extended as the season progresses, said Hooker. The grand opening date has not been finalized.

BeaverTail giveaway planned But free BeaverTails will be offered from 1 to 2 p.m. and 5 to 6 p.m. on May 16 and 17 in celebration of the new location. The fried pastry treat is offered for free two other times annually, and usually attracts quite a crowd, said Hooker. For the grand opening, Hooker has plans for buskers from the ByWard Market to be transported to the Tanger location, he said. “What we are trying to do is duplicate the market experience in Kanata at the Tanger mall,” said Hooker. BeaverTails set up shop in the ByWard Market in 1980, and that location has grown up with the market, becoming the most stable revenue stream for the company in Ottawa, as well as a gathering place for market shoppers. While the company’s temporary locations on the Rideau Canal for skating season can be a big money-maker, it is also a risk, said Hooker. “On the canal you set up and you roll the dice because you’ve got a two-month window where the weekends, (it) better not be closed, and sometimes it is. And then it ends with the thaw and you
don’t have the chance to recoup a loss until the next year when you roll the dice again,” he said. “Whereas a year-round operation … you are not rolling the dice as much.” BeaverTails has tried opening locations in malls before, but the attempts haven’t worked out, said Hooker.
“What we are trying to do is duplicate the market experience in Kanata at the Tanger mall.” Grant Hooker, BeaverTails founder
But the Tanger Outlets location is different because it is an outdoor venue, and offers a climate similar to the market, he said. “It’s almost like a treasure hunt,” said Hooker of shopping at Tanger. “You go to a mall like that because you are hoping you can find good quality stuff at a bargain price,” much like people’s experience at the ByWard Market. The Tanger BeaverTails
location is also expected to offer shoppers a meeting place, as it does in the market. BIGGER MENU
Currently, BeaverTails is set up in Tanger’s west parking lot off of Palladium Drive using a temporary shop like those used on the canal. Hooker said he hopes to have a larger shop installed sometime around or after Canada Day that will offer more than just BeaverTails. The larger shop, which represents a six-figure investment, would sell poutine, hot dogs and more items which have not yet been offered in Ottawa, but can be found in BeaverTail locations elsewhere in Canada. Though the decision has not yet been made whether a larger shop will be set up at Tanger, Hooker said, “I think there is a 95 per cent chance that we are going to invest in that.” Asked if the Ottawa Senators potential move from Kanata to LeBreton Flats was a consideration, he said “not really.” “We want the Sens to be successful wherever they are, and I don’t think that that location change would affect the mall,” he said.
The Hike for Hospice Palliative Care took place on Sunday, May 3, 2015 at the May Court Hospice and RuddyShenkman Hospice.

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