EMC news - Fred Fox offered students at Carleton University a message of hope on Sept. 6 and urged them to work hard to keep his brother Terry’s dream alive.

Thirty-two years ago, Terry Fox captured the imagination of the country with his Marathon of Hope.

This fall, students at universities across Canada are uniting to celebrate his legacy and raise money for cancer research.

BLAIR EDWARDS/METROLAND “It is important that students realize that it doesn’t matter what age you are at, it is still important to continue what Terry started and raise money Maggie Miller, 3, an Alta Vista girl, is thrilled to meet the farm animals at a petting zoo, one of the attractions featured to find a cure for cancer,” Fred at the annual Riverview Corn Roast held at Balena Park on Sunday, Sept. 9.

Fox told students on Sept. 6, as Carleton joined the effort, called Terry’s CAUSE - College and University Student Engagement.

While in hospital, Terry was so overcome by the suffering of other cancer patients, many of them young children, that he decided to run across Canada to raise money for cancer research. He called his journey the Marathon of Hope. “It is not just about research and ďŹ nding a cure for cancer, he was showing people you could accomplish anything if you give all you have,â€? Fred Fox said.

As provincial director for The Terry Fox Foundation in British Columbia, Fox said he has witnessed ďŹ rst-hand the impact his brother’s legacy had on countless supporters and cancer research.

Fox spoke of the importance to continue what his brother started in 1980. “I am proud of the passion that people have for Terry,� he said. “We are proud that so many people look up to Terry and are inspired to have their own hope in the things that they are doing.�

Terry started his run in St. John’s, N.L., on April 12, 1980. Enthusiasm grew and the money collected along his route began to mount. He ran 42 kilometres a day through Canada’s Atlantic provinces, Quebec and Ontario.

However, on Sept. 1, after 143 days and 5,373 kilometres, Terry was forced to stop

running outside of Thunder Bay, because cancer had appeared in his lungs. He passed away on June 28, 1981 at the age 22. “After being diagnosed with cancer for the second time, Terry said the Marathon of Hope must continue without me,� Fox said of his brother’s historic run. “He passed a baton to thousands of people creating a legacy that is 32 years running.�

Despite Terry’s young age, Fox said he had an incredible vision. “He learned young that life was precious and short and believed cancer provided him with a purpose,� he said. “His message was a call out for people to unite and work together.�

Fox urged students to work hard. “You guys are making a difference. If it wasn’t for people like you, Terry’s dream would have faded (a long time ago,)� he said.

Will Johnson, one of the run organizers at Carleton said Terry is an inspiration to them all.

Ottawa Hospital Research Institute’s John Bell said while great strides have been made in cancer research in the past 30 years, there is still much more to be done.

More than $600 million has been raised in Terry’s name in the past 32 years.

Canoeists paddle from Ottawa to Washington D.C. Brier Dodge brier.dodge@metroland.com

EMC news - A group of Ottawa-area paddlers are making the trek of a lifetime, paddling in a canoe from Ottawa’s Victoria Island to the capital of the U.S.A., Washington, D.C. as a part of the Capital to Capitol by Canoe trip.

Covering about 50 kilometres a day, the group will paddle on rivers, lakes, canals, harbours and bays, They’ll cover the St. Lawrence Seaway, Lake Champlain, the Hudson River and Chesapeake Bay, and anticipate arriving in Washington in six weeks.

It’s a diverse and varied group that ranges from Westboro canoe adventurer Max Finkelstein and his 13-yearold son Isaac, to American paddlers meeting with the crew along the way.

Ottawa South’s Jay Morrison didn’t start the trip in Ottawa, but the experienced trans-Canada solo canoeist will meet the group along the way to paddle into Washington.

Some of the paddlers have been friends for years, while others are just getting to know each other now as teammates.

Their reasons for taking the trip are as diverse as the

crew, but they primarily focus on respect for water as a resource and the protection of the waterways and history surrounding them. “What brought us together is, despite our backgrounds, we all recognize water as the most valuable resource,� said paddler Nicholas Tilgner, who has worked as a guide on the Yukon River.

Group members hope they can draw attention to the need to restore the rivers by making the trip, which is supported by the Canadian Wildlife Federation.

This includes Canada and the United States working together to have ecologically healthy rivers running between the two countries.

Dot Bonnenfant, one of the paddlers, said that there is a forgotten history along many of Canada’s waterways.

The group incorporated this information into the official launch, made from Victoria Island on Aug. 5.

As the trip is dedicated to Algonquin elder grandfather William Commanda, his daughter, Algonquin elder Evelyne Commanda was at Victoria Island to perform a blessing.

Victoria Island was the launch site for the group because it has been the traditional spiritual meeting ground for the Algonquin people for

People take this for granted,� said Glebe resident and former city councillor Clive Doucet as he motioned to the Ottawa River.

The first-day paddle saw them travel to OrlĂŠans, where they camped at Petrie Island, hosted by volunteer group

11 Critical Home Inspection Traps to be Aware of Weeks Before Listing Your Home for Sale Ottawa & Area - According to industry experts, there are over 33 physical problems that will come under scrutiny during a home inspection when your home is for sale. A new report has been prepared which identifies the eleven most common of these problems, and what you should know about them before you list your home for sale.

Whether you own an old home or a brand new one, there are a number of things that can fall short of requirements during a home inspection. If not identified and dealt with, any of these 11 items could cost you dearly in terms of repair. That's why it's critical that you read this report before you list your home. If you wait until the building inspector flags these issues for you, you will almost certainly experience costly delays in the close of your home sale or, worse, turn prospective buyers away

altogether. In most cases, you can make a reasonable pre-inspection yourself if you know what you're looking for, and knowing what you're looking for can help you prevent little problems from growing into costly and unmanageable ones.

To help homesellers deal with this issue before their homes are listed, a free report entitled "11 Things You Need to Know to Pass Your Home Inspection" has been compiled which explains the issues involved.

To order a FREE Special Report, visit www.OttawaFreeHomeInfo.com or to hear a brief recorded message about how to order your FREE copy of this report call toll-free 1-800-217-1897 and enter 4003 . You can call any time, 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.

Get your free special report NOW to learn how to ensure a home inspection doesn't cost you the sale of your home.

Friends of Petrie Island.

It wasn’t far from home for Beacon Hill’s Norm Radford, who is ready for the entire journey from one capital city to another.

Now retired, Radford has participated in long distance cycling trips and is a former marathon runner.

He said he’s looking forward “to an adventure of a lifetime (for) such a worthy and important cause.�

Group members will change as the trip goes on, with some members joining for certain legs, and other guest paddlers joining in for several days at times.

The 11-metre canoe will hold eight to 12 paddlers at a time, and will occasionally leave the water when needed to drive to the next river or passageway on the group’s route.

Tourists may be in for a

shock they see the canoe approach the New York harbour, which will likely be the most challenging part of the route, said Tilgner, with a sharp contrast to the remote northern routes he is used to navigating. “No one makes this kind of trip, ever. This will be the first time as far as we know, that anyone has ever done this,�

Doucet said. “It’s a way of keeping our rivers healthy.�

TACKLING THE DEFICIT In order to eliminate the deficit by 2017/18, our government must be steady and relentless in its approach.

Over the course of our five year plan, spending in areas of highest priority — education and health care — will see modest increases. With half of government spending going towards compensation, we’re also negotiating agreements with public sector partners that will help us meet our budget goals.

celebrating this anniversary with the people who help make the work we do possible - our community,” said Catherine Dubois, the centre’s executive director, in a press release.

“Our programs and services touch children, youth, seniors, adults and families. We are proud to look back and look forward to the future with all of the people who make a difference in our community - the residents of Ward 13 Rideau-Rockliffe, dedicated volunteers, partner organizations and supporters.”

The celebrations will also include the announcement of two special youth awards, recognizing the achievements young people have made in the community.

The Claude Gingras award will recognize youth who have shown perseverance in the face of challenges and the youth volunteer of the year award will celebrate youth who have given back to their community in some significant way.

The centre said it will make the awards an annual event.

Activities include a performance by local singer Maria Hawkins, a puppet demonstration and workshop from the Compagnie Vox Théâtre, a youth dance-off, face-painting and a children’s bouncy castle.

Rain or shine, the celebration will take place at the centre from 2 to 5 p.m.

The Overbrook-Forbes Resource Centre provides services to residents living in Overbrook, Forbes, Cummings, Manor Park, Rockcliffe, Carson Grove, New Edinburgh and Lindenlea.

Six-year-old girl fights rare brain cancer Potential for Gold in Scrap Metal At the most recent Environment Committee meeting, I introduced an inquiry to City Officials to ensure the City is doing all it can to capitalize on the rise in market prices of scrap metals.

The City of Ottawa has a program which allows residents to recycle scrap metal at the Trail Road Waste Facility, where residents can bring clean, scrap metals. The City accepts the metals free of charge and sells them to local scrap-metal dealers. Residents commonly drop off old appliances such as stoves, dishwashers, washers, dryers, and bedrails; though any other clean metal product is accepted.

In 2010, the City of Ottawa generated a total of $42,000 in revenue from the program. In 2011, due to a rise in market prices, the City was able to more than double their revenue to a total of $93,000, while receiving less tonnage.

As City Council prepares for the draft 2013 City Budget, it is worth exploring whether the program can be expanded to generate additional revenue for the City.

Findlay Creek Community Central Park Naming Opportunity I would like to take this opportunity to share with you a possible naming opportunity for the Findlay Creek Community Park. I am currently proposing to name it Diamond Jubilee Park. As you know, the Diamond Jubilee takes place in 2012, to commemorate 60 years of the Queen’s reign. I believe naming the new community park in Findlay Creek to recognize this significant event is a tremendous recognition for the Findlay Creek community. I also believe that this “majestic” name would be fitting given the size and scope of this wonderful central park.

I am pleased at all the great work we have done as Findlay Creek continues to grow and I would like to hear the community’s feedback with respect to the proposed naming opportunity.

Back to School Time It is back to school time and I would like to remind residents to watch for the children who will be walking and cycling to and from school. The City of Ottawa and the Ottawa Police Service are reminding motorists to be cautious, drive safe and follow the rules of the road, especially near school zones and school buses.

Ottawa Police will be focusing its efforts on ensuring drivers are respecting the rules of the road related to school zones and buses and I urge residents to please drive safely at all times in our community.

We all have a responsibility to drive appropriately to ensure everyone’s return to school is as safe as possible.

Laplante-Gaul took on the challenge to organize the fundraiser along with her 19year-old daughter Samantha.

In January, Sofia, a student at Steve MacLean Public School, was diagnosed with a rare and life threatening brain tumor and was airlifted to the Hospital for Sick Children in Toronto.

Not really feeling sick, Sofia didn’t understand why all the people at the hospital were “torturing her,” Laplante-Gaul said in a statement.

“At such a young age, her parents dreaded having to explain the illness that had invaded her body and the many challenges that she would be facing because of it.”

Laplante-Gaul said they organized the fundraiser to bring awareness to the community to ease some of the many obstacles Sofia is faced with on a daily basis.

“Donating at this event will both help in the fight against brain cancer and help ease the family’s medical cost burden.

“But perhaps most important of all, it will help Sofia find a sense of belonging in her own neighborhood again,” she said.

Laplante-Gaul and her daughter’s goal is to raise $5,000 for the family and $1,000 for research.

The duo have been working together baking and soliciting business for auction items.

“Since June, we wanted to make people aware of brain cancer and how it affects you but mostly how Sofia has been fighting this disease since January,” said Laplante-Gaul.

“This all stemmed from an email from Sofia’s mother mom asking us to educate our kids so Sofia can feel accepted in her neighborhood.”

McGuinty to help monitor Ukrainian national election Eddie Rwema eddie.rwema@metroland.com

EMC news –Ottawa South MP David McGuinty joined a team of experts sent to the Ukraine last week to assess the country’s upcoming parliamentary election.

McGuinty is a member of a U.S.-based National Democratic Institute (NDI) delegation which was sent to check out the country’s electoral conditions ahead of the country’s national elections on Oct. 28.

The MP was joined by Christine Todd Whitman, the former governor of New Jersey and four other delegates, a group that included international election experts, for a week-long review of the conditions and preparations in place for the election.

McGuinty said that being part of the delegation is a great honour and privilege.

“I have met a few people in my own riding who are originally from Ukraine and they tell me they are very worried about the state of Ukrainian democracy and whether the

rule of law will thrive and whether or not this election will be conducted impartially, fair and transparent,” he said.

The delegation will meet with election and government officials, political competitors, civil society organizations, and the media to gather information about the country’s election process.

“It is an opportunity for me to contribute to something meaningful (to) the Ukrainian electoral environment, but at the same time learn from it and bring Canadian experience to bear in very practical ways,” added McGuinty.

The delegation will release a report highlighting its findings at the conclusion of the mission.

The report will look at the Ukraine’s existing legal framework, how the election was run, the political environment for the campaigns and whether there was any intimidation or harassment of candidates.

It will also highlight legal mechanisms available for any problems during the election and possible future reforms.

Ottawa South MP David McGuinty is on a mission in the Ukraine assess the country’s upcoming parliamentary election.

“It is going to be important to report out to the world,” said McGuinty.

Canada will be sending 500 observers to help monitor the elections.

In a statement early last month, Jason Kenney, minister of Citizenship, Immigration and Multiculturalism said that Canada has a long and proud history of providing observers to countries to help ensure free and fair elections.

“These elections are criti-

cal to a democratic and prosperous Ukraine. We are proud that Canadian election observers, many from the Ukrainian-Canadian community, will continue to stand by the people of Ukraine.”

The deployment of Canadian election observers will help assess the credibility of the elections in Ukraine, including steps in the months leading up to the elections. It will also observe voting day conditions and procedures of the Oct. 28 election.

Even though this shopping centre is not within the Gloucester-Southgate ward boundaries I know it is of interest to many residents because of its close proximity to Gloucester-Southgate ward.

I have learned that there will be five new buildings constructed in the mall re-development. The Food Basics store will remain in its current location and will have general façade work done once the rest of the mall has been demolished. The pedestrian crosswalk across Walkley Road will remain in place and the Planning Branch has assured me that there will be a future sidewalk connection, with a crosswalk, leading to the new front door of the Food Basics store for enhanced pedestrian safety.

The building currently under construction at the Walkley Road south corner of the site will house a Rexall Pharmacy; the future building on the north side of the site off of the Heron Road entrance will be a Scotiabank, and they are both scheduled to be completed by March 2013. There will be a future building adjacent to the Scotiabank off of Heron Road, but the tenant and completion date have not been determined. The largest building on the northwest edge of the site has no scheduled construction date at this time as well. Lastly, there is a small building to be located at the Walkley Road main entrance which will house a barbershop, dentist and a Subway Restaurant slated to be completed prior to any future mall demolition.

City of Ottawa’s Youth Summit – October 12th Registration has begun for the City of Ottawa’s Youth Summit which is being held on October 12th at City Hall.

The summit will provide a forum for youth (ages 16 to 25) to speak freely about issues that they are concerned about and will encourage information sharing among all participants. The goal of the event is to have youth help shape their City by engaging in discussions and to hear suggestions on how the City can improve its services for local youth. There will be a variety of guest speakers and information sessions for those in attendance.

I encourage youth to take part in this summit. For more information and the full registration form please visit ottawa.ca/youth, email youth@ottawa.ca or phone 613580-2450.

‘We Care’ Community Event On Tuesday, August 28th I partnered with the South East Ottawa Community Health Centre and the No Community Left Behind Steering Committee to host the “We Care” Community Event in the Heatherington and Fairlea communities. The event was aimed at addressing recent concerns in these neighbourhoods. Residents were encouraged to go out and meet their neighbours while learning more about the service providers available to them. The evening started in Fairlea Park where guests enjoyed a variety of entertainment and community resource information booths and ended with a ride on OC Transpo’s new double-decker bus to the Albion-Heatherington Recreation Centre for cake and music. I would like to extend a big thank you to all of the sponsors and volunteers who made this event possible and to the communities for coming out to show support for their neighbourhoods!

Get electoral boundary changes right

U

ndertaking the task of re-drawing federal electoral boundaries is surely daunting, but it serves to ensure all Canadians are as equitably represented in the House of Commons as possible.

While the recent announcement of a proposed federal electoral map makes several positive moves for voters in the city of Ottawa, it also fails to address an issue that many residents of this city can relate

to: the urban-suburban-rural divides.

The total number of electoral districts required in Ontario has grown by 15 to 121, triggered by 2011 census data showing this province’s population has grown by more than 1.4 million since 2001.

According to the proposal created by a federal electoral boundaries commission, a number of new ridings have been created in areas of dramatic population growth across the province. Some ex-

isting riding boundaries have likewise been adjusted.

Among them are the proposed new riding of Nepean and the renamed riding of Carleton-Kanata, formerly Carleton-Mississippi Mills.

There are positive aspects to both of these moves, but they were easy decisions to make.

Move the western border of the renamed Carleton-Kanata riding to the city limits, break off the well-populated suburban chunk of the massive Nepean-Carleton riding and

name it Nepean. Job done.

But there are missed opportunities here. Residents in rural places like Carp, Fitzroy Harbour and Dunrobin are still at the mercy of the suburban voters in Kanata. The voices of voters in Dwyer Hill, North Gower and Metcalfe are still drowned out by residents of Stittsville, Riverside South and Greely – larger, denser suburban nooks in what is mainly a rural riding.

The situation is slightly dif-

ferent in the east end, where pockets of voters in places like Cumberland, Carlsbad Springs, Vars and Sarsfield remain in the sprawling Glengarry-Prescott-Russell riding, despite the fact they pay city property taxes.

These examples stand out as missed opportunities for the commission, opportunities to ensure voters receive fair, balanced representation in the House of Commons.

Presently, it must be difficult for an MP, such as Nepe-

an-Carleton’s Pierre Poilievre or Carleton-Mississippi Mills’ Gordon O’Connor, to balance the way they represent their constituents. They are beholden to two different viewpoints, but one of those viewpoints gets them elected, the other – owing to smaller numbers – doesn’t.

The federal electoral boundaries commission should be doing its utmost to make this balancing act easier for our elected officials, so they can serve an electorate with common concerns.

If it involves redrawing the entire Ottawa electoral map to ensure the population is balanced, so be it.

Giving a nod to the wave CHARLES GORDON Funny Town

W

aving is important. We don’t do it enough either.

The other day, in one of those inevitable construction lineups on Highway 7, I watched the guy in front of me wave to the flagman as we started moving after a long delay. The flagman waved back. I waved too. He waved back at me.

It was nice. Now, what did it mean? What were we all saying to each other? The guy in front, was he saying “thanks for waving me on, for changing the STOP sign to the SLOW sign”? Or was he saying: “No hard feelings: it’s not your fault I had to sit here for five minutes.” Or was he saying: “Thanks for standing out in the hot sun all day so that all of us don’t go crunching into some construction machinery?”

What about the flag guy? Was he saying “thanks for being so patient” or was he saying “thanks for waving?”

It could have been any or all of that, or none of it. Probably what mattered most of all was that we were human beings acknowledging that we’re all in this together, which, when you think about it, we don’t do often enough.

On our lakes there is an old tradition that people in boats wave at people in other boats as they pass. Who knows what that means, perhaps something about members of the community of boaters saluting each other. The funny thing is you notice it when it doesn’t happen. And if it does happen, it can change the way you think about the other boater.

Say he’s driving some great big noisy overpowered ocean liner of a boat that you think has no business being on a lake this size. And

as you’re thinking that, he gives you a friendly wave. Oh well, you think, at least he waved.

Waving is a connection. Sometimes it’s an unpleasant connection, such as the well-known one-finger wave which usually occurs in traffic. Other times the connection is fleeting and distant. Children wave at a passing train.

Passengers wave back. What does it mean for either of them? Yet they couldn’t not do it.

The wave as “thank you” figures prominently in our daily lives. You know the situation: You’re coming out of a gas station or a side street into a heavy stream of traffic and somebody slows to let you in. When you are safely into the traffic, you wave your thanks.

With your whole hand. And you mean it.

Without people like that, willing to give up a few seconds of their busy lives, we’d be living in chaos, gridlock interrupted by some people barging into traffic and others slamming on their brakes.

There would be a lot more one-finger waving then.

The funny thing is that, even though the sacrifice we make in letting someone in is tiny, we still expect to be thanked for it. We want to see that wave. When we don’t, we are annoyed. “Wave, dammit,” we mutter from behind the steering wheel.

The same thing goes for when we hold open a door for someone. It’s certainly no trouble, but we expect thanks for it. It may be sheer vanity but it may also be that we like people to acknowledge that we exist.

Such acknowledgement is all the more important in an age when so many of our dealings are with computers, robots and other gizmos that know us only as a number, if at all.

So we wave our thanks and feel thankful for waves. Mind you, for some of us, no thanks are required. Simply doing the good deed is reward enough.

Those would be the saints among us. Too bad more of us are not like that, but then we’d all be saints and who would we look up to?

And who would we look down at?

Fallen firefighters honoured Eddie Rwema eddie.rwema@metroland.com

EMC news – About 200 Ottawa firefighters marched to city hall as part of a solemn ceremony to honour local fallen colleagues during the 11th annual Firefighters Memorial Service held on Friday, Sept. 9.

The ceremony honoured lives of three men who died in the line of duty and 13 others who passed away outside the line of duty.

Several dignitaries, including Ottawa fire Chief John deHooge, Mayor Jim Watson and Ontario Minister of Transportation Bob Chiarelli, delivered messages that paid tribute to those who had selflessly given their lives in the line of duty.

“Each and everyday firefighters risk their own lives in order to save and protect the lives of others,” said Watson.

He hailed the Ottawa fire services for playing an important role in the community, adding that their dedication to the city is to be admired.

“Today we honour and remember firefighters who have lost their lives on the line of duty. We also honour and remember the firefighters who have served our community and have since passed away.”

The fire chief presented flowers and certificates to the families of the fallen firefight-

ers and a bell rang out after each name was read.

“We are here in reverence to support and comfort our families in their loss, and to offer the continuing love and support of the Ottawa Fire Services,” said fire chief John deHooge.

“We are here to honour their memory by remembering their courage and sense of duty, to respect their service to humanity, their fellow firefighters and our nation’s capital.”

The service was also marked by unveiling of three new plaques at the Ottawa Firefighters Memorial to remember the dead.

“These plaques are a humbling tribute to the memory of those courageous firefighters, who sacrificed while protecting others,” said Chiarelli.

“We keep their legacies alive by gathering here and showing our respect. They were outstanding individuals who made a difference in the communities they served.”

In a related development, on Sept. 9 part of LeBreton Flats was transformed into a permanent memorial site, honouring more than 1,100 fallen Canadian firefighters.

A six-meter-high, bronze statue of a firefighter stands tall, his right arm pointing to a commemorative wall. Etched into the granite are the words “Never to be Forgotten,” alongside the names of fire-

fighters who died in the line of duty since 1848.

Governor General of Canada David Johnston recited the names of 12 firefighters who were added to the list of fatalities in 2011.

Among the names was Jean-Luc Deba, a 54-year old pilot who died on May 20, 2011, in a helicopter crash while fighting fires in Slave Lake, Alberta.

“I came here to remember my brother,” said Laurence Deba, who traveled from France for the ceremony. “It gives me lots of hope… he’ll be remembered as someone important.”

Louise Rea from North Perth, Ontario was also presented with an honorary medal and helmet. Her husband Kenneth Rea was one of two firefighters who died battling a blaze at a Dollar Stop store in downtown Listowel, Ont. on March 17, 2011.

“It was very overwhelming, I’m honored to be here,” said Louise.

Kenneth was 56 years-old when he died.

The Canadian Firefighters memorial cost $5 million, including $2 million which was raised by the Canadian Fallen Firefighters Foundation, $2.5 million from the Government of Canada’s Department of Heritage and $500,000 of inkind donations.

Youth get their say at city hall Oct. 12 Photo contest leads up to youth summit Laura Mueller laura.mueller@metroland.com

EMC news - Mayor Jim Watson wants everyone from street kids to student council presidents to participate in the city’s youth summit.

Watson said he is always inspired by young people and he hopes the city can leverage their opinions to influence how the city makes decisions.

The event on Oct. 12 will invite 200 young people between the ages of 16 and 25 to city hall for speakers, discussions and workshops, but event chairman, Rideau-Vanier Coun. Mathieu Fleury, invited all the city’s youths to participate by watching the webcast on ottawa.ca and tweeting using the hashtag #ottyouth.

Registration is limited.

Youth can register now at ottawa.ca/youth.

“My goal is to give street kids and student council presidents and everyone in between a chance to address the shortcomings of the city,” Watson said during a launch

summit will lead to five to 10 tangible initiatives the city can undertake to make Ottawa more youth friendly.

The youth summit will also feature a slew of mentors young people can chat with to find out how they charted their course to success.

That list includes the keynote speaker, David Hale, founder of Social Group, a digital, mobile and social marketing strategy firm. He is also on the board of the Ottawa Community Loan Fund and the CHEO social media committee.

The summit is co-organized by other local organizations, including Child and Youth Friendly Ottawa (CAYFO), which is running a photo contest in the lead-up to the Oct. 12 summit. Youth Pic Ottawa asks young residents to show off “their Ottawa.”

“What is your Ottawa and what makes it youth friendly?” asked Mandi Duhamel of CAYFO. Go to cayfo.ca to submit your digital photo and a short description of why it represents the city and what makes the city youth friendly. Submissions will be accepted until midnight on Sept. 28. The photos will be displayed during the Youth Summit.

Two local youth already had a chance to get involved by designing the logo for the event. Greenboro resident Ahmad Hussein came up with the concept and Nepean resident Sara Minaeian refined it into the final product.

The logo depicts a mountain surrounded by a border that mimics the city’s “O” logo.

“It defines how youth will be the base of the summit,” said Minaeian, who attends Colonel By Secondary School in Beacon Hill North.

“The three peaks show how the youth, seniors and adults in the city can connect,” added Hussein.

South Ottawa Race Day hopes to end brain cancer Emma Jackson emma.jackson@metroland.com

EMC news â&#x20AC;&#x201C; The brain cancer battles of two Steve MacLean Public School membersâ&#x20AC;&#x201C; one a 38-year-old mother who lost her battle last summer, the other a Grade 2 student currently ďŹ ghting for her life â&#x20AC;&#x201C; have inspired an entire community to ďŹ nd a cure.

Greely resident Heather Geddie was diagnosed with a cancerous brain tumour in 2009, and fought for two years until she passed away in July 2011. Two of her three children, then aged 9 and 15, had attended Steve MacLean Public School in Riverside South.

A group of parents from the school were so inspired by Geddieâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s positive attitude that after her death they decided to host the South Ottawa Race Day, which will fundraise for brain cancer research at the Rideau Carleton Raceway on Sunday, Sept. 30.

But well into planning for the big event, the community received a second blow this spring when another Steve MacLean family discovered their daughter SoďŹ a has an inoperable brain tumour. She would have been going into Grade 2 this year, but is instead ďŹ ghting her disease at CHEO.

Riverside South resident Karen Sinclair holds a photo of her friend Heather Geddie, who died from a brain tumour last summer. Sinclair and three other parents from Steve MacLean Public School will host a fundraising race day in her memory on Sept. 29. sense to pair their fundraising efforts with something active.

Adding SoďŹ aâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s cause to the banner has only served as a poignant reminder that brain cancer is prevalent everywhere, she said.

Sinclair said the group hopes to raise $40,000, which the Ottawa Regional Cancer Foundationâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s board of directors will help direct to a

worthy brain cancer research project.

Fellow organizer and Steve MacLean parent Chris Hill, who didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t know Geddie, said he was motivated by her positive attitude and the communityâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s response during her illness. He said the event will help people grieve her loss and celebrate her life while helping to end cancer.

â&#x20AC;&#x153;I think people wanted an outlet to express their grief and express their inspiration,â&#x20AC;? he said.

Geddie was born in Nova Scotia but grew up in Kanata, where she graduated from the Earl of March Secondary School. She studied Recreational Marine Management at St. Lawrence College in Kingston and then worked for

two years at a small shipyard before moving back to Kanata in 1997.

A great lover of sports, Geddie spent the last eight years of her life in Greely where she focused on family activities including playing tennis, spending time at the cottage in Calabogie and skiing at the Peaks, according to her biography on southottawaraceday.ca. She and her family also developed strong ties to the church community in Manotick, and her husband Kevin will perform with the Manotick Village Singers on the race day.

Her children Breanna, Ryan, and Colin will all take part in the event, and her parents will talk to the crowds about their daughterâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s ďŹ ght.

Sinclair said Geddie remained positive throughout her entire illness, and was always thinking of others before herself. â&#x20AC;&#x153;She honestly never said a bad word about anybody, she was always looking on the bright side and thinking of how to help people,â&#x20AC;? Sinclair said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;She was quite a humanitarian in that sense and we wanted to keep that positive outlook going.â&#x20AC;?

The race day will include a two-kilometre family walk/ run, a ďŹ ve-km walk/run, a 10-km route and a half marathon or half marathon relay through rural Ottawa South.

A free barbecue, a childrenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s corner provided by the Manotick co-operative nursery school and speeches from Geddieâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s family will take place after the races are all ďŹ nished.

But itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not just the small organizing group that has come together, said co-organizer Karen Sinclair. Businesses, dance studios, students and parents who never met Geddie or SoďŹ a have jumped on board to raise funds and awareness.

Dance Roots studio choreographed an awareness ďŹ&#x201A;ash mob at the school last June, and a ladiesâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; night fundraiser in February sold out more than 400 tickets in just a few days.

Plane makes emergency landing in Barrhaven cornfield Pilot walks away without injury Nevil Hunt nevil.hunt@metroland.com

EMC news - The pilot of a single-engine plane was able to walk away from an emergency landing in a dirt field on the afternoon of Sept. 5, crediting his training for the safe end of his solo trip.

The plane remained upright during the landing, skimming over the hard dirt and the remaining stumps of hundreds of corn stalks that appeared to have been harvested recently.

The 1997-model Katana two-seater lost power shortly after takeoff from Ottawa airport, said Ottawa fire department acting district Chief Donald Smith.

“He took off on a test flight and had engine trouble and lost power,” Smith said.

“He tried to get back to the airport.”

The pilot radioed the Ottawa airport tower to report he was landing on the west side of the Rideau River.

He avoided nearby power lines before landing in a plowed section of field northeast of the intersection of Fallowfield and Merivale roads.

The spot is about two kilo-

metres from the nearest runway at the airport.

“He did a great job,” Smith said of the landing, adding there was little damage to the plane and the pilot was feeling fine despite the challenging landing.

Emergency crews from the Ottawa airport, as well as Ottawa firefighters, paramedics and police officers responded to the scene.

The male pilot, who did not identify himself, was wearing a shirt with an Ottawa Aviation Services logo when he walked out of the field.

“If you’re trained well, you can land it well,” is all the pilot would say before departing in a car with two other men wearing shirts with OAS logos.

Smith said the Transportation Safety Board has been informed of the emergency landing and will investigate.

The plane was expected to be moved from the field to the airport by flatbed truck later the same day.

OAS declined to comment on the emergency landing.

The flying school lists the Katana on its website as its most basic trainer and says the plane is notable for its glide ratio, which is “a significant advantage in the event of an engine failure as it allows the aircraft to reach a greater number of potential landing areas.”

Airport Parkway Pedestrian/Cycling Bridge Work continues to progress on our important community connection, the Airport Parkway Pedestrian/Cycling Bridge. This summer, construction crews completed the railway underpass structure and the east and west bridge approaches, installed light poles and fixtures along the pathway approaches and installed a chain link fence along the east pathway approach between the Sawmill Creek culvert crossing and the Transitway. Next steps include pouring the concrete for the main tower, constructing the bridge deck, installing outstanding light poles, paving the pathways, landscaping and all other miscellaneous construction activities.

During the next phase of construction, while the contractor builds the formwork crossing the parkway and while the concrete for the bridge deck is poured, there will be a period of time when traffic on the Airport Parkway is heavily impacted. Please visit ottawa.ca for current information regarding traffic impacts. You can also visit my website at MariaMcRae. ca, sign-up for my e-newsletter, or follow me on Twitter @CouncillorMcRae for updates on this project.

I continue to closely monitor progress on this project to ensure that this connection is built safely and to the highest quality standards. Thank you for your patience during construction.

City Receives Light Rail Consortia Submissions Earlier this week, the City received submissions from three industry teams to design, build, finance and maintain the Ottawa Light Rail Transit Project.

Proposals were submitted by: r Ottawa Transit Partners (led by Vinci Concessions) r Rideau Transit Group (led by ACS Infrastructure Canada) r Rideau Transit Partners (led by Bouygues Travaux Publics) Each of these teams was prequalified to submit proposals after an initial Request for Qualifications was completed in October 2011. Collectively, these firms have successfully built over $100 billion in light rail projects and 2,000 kilometres of tunnels in cities across the globe.

The City of Ottawa and Infrastructure Ontario will commence the evaluation of these submissions, and will recommend a Preferred Proponent along with their design, cost and schedule to City Council for approval by the end of this year. Construction of this project will begin in 2013 and the system is expected to be fully operational by 2018.

As the city looks at how to move people around downtown after the cityâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s underground light-rail tunnel is built and operational in 2018, managing the levels of pedestrians and cyclists in the core and ensuring there is enough space for them is a priority.

Prioritizing bikes over cars?

City project looks at changing the way we assess whether to give road space to cars, bicycles or pedestrians Laura Mueller laura.mueller@metroland.com

EMC news - The city uses benchmarks to decide when there are so many vehicles that it needs to expand a road.

Now, Ottawa is looking at creating similar benchmarks for pedestrian and bicycle traffic.

As the city looks at how to move people around downtown after the cityâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s underground light-rail tunnel is built and operational in 2018, managing the levels of pedestrians and cyclists in the core and ensuring there is enough space for them is a priority, said Nelson Edwards, the lead planner on the cityâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Downtown Moves project.

On Sept. 5, Edwards told the cityâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s transportation committee that heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll deliver an interim report in November.

But he gave a taste of some of the ideas the Downtown Moves working group has

been tossing around.

Somerset Coun. Diane Holmes, whose ward comprises most of the study area, asked Edwards whether his report will look at the â&#x20AC;&#x153;level of serviceâ&#x20AC;? philosophy as it could be applied to pedestrian and cycling traffic. While the city takes â&#x20AC;&#x153;â&#x20AC;?level of serviceâ&#x20AC;? benchmarks for vehicle traffic very seriously, Holmes said, there is no similar metric for assessing when to add or expand pedestrian or cycling facilities. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s the very crux of Downtown Moves,â&#x20AC;? Edwards said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We will look to redistribute the space in the public right-of-way â&#x20AC;Ś to prioritize modes that can carry more people per square metre.â&#x20AC;?

Removing a significant amount of bus traffic from downtown streets by putting light rail transit underground instead, will free up a lot of street space, Edwards said.

His study will help the city decide how best to use that space.

A key part of the project is responding to the needs of all street users, Edwards said.

For instance, Slater Street already has a lot of storefront businesses and restaurants, Edwards said, so widening the sidewalks there would provide even more incentive for people to use that route if they are walking to get somewhere.

Albert Street, which is currently bogged down by Transitway buses, could provide good opportunities to replaces buses with bicycles and pedestrians instead of buses and cars, Edward said.

The final report will come in March of 2013 and include ideas to capitalize on the changes LRT will bring to the cityâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s core, including urban design solutions that can be used to co-ordinate streetscape proposals and road design after LRT is built. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s been made clear to us thatâ&#x20AC;Ś itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s the quality of the urban environment that will influence choices of how people get around downtown,â&#x20AC;?

Edwards told the planning committee.

There is probably no better way to make a mess than through pottery.

Artists at the Nepean Visual Arts Centre produce more than 50,000 pieces of art each year. This year, some of them can be yours. Think about Discovering Your Voice in Clay, Sculptural Handbuilding or maybe a Wheel and Hanbuilding Combo.

For a splash of colour in your work area there are painting classes of various media offered across the city. Whether you are a beginner or an expert, you can work with oil, acrylic, watercolour or mixed media, explore abstract expression or classic portraiture.

Does Canvas and Cocktails sound appealing?

For something artistic and practical, learn to make a table, tray or mirror frame mosaic. Using stained glass tailored to suit the individual (beginner or improver), learn about techniques and materials and take home the completed project of your choice.

If you would like to eat your art, there are cooking classes available for young and old alike. Classes involving sushi, phyllo pastry and wine are on the menu, with cake decorating for dessert.

Donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t worry, if you really want to keep your hands clean while being creative, there are several classes available across the city and in your neighbourhood that involve drawing, sketching, calligraphy and creative writing.

The art of photography, which used to be messy, may have gone digital in recent years, but there are still plenty of opportunities to explore this medium in City classes. Get an introduction to the medium, sharpen your skills or simply learn how to Take Your Camera for a Walk.

Youth given hand up through Operation Come Home donation Michelle Nash michelle.nash@metroland.com

EMC news - Youth from Operation Come Home can now take an active role in changing their future thanks to targeted funding from Hydro Ottawa donated through the United Way. Operation Come Home made the announcement on Sept. 7 at its Centretown location at 150 Gloucester St., showcasing how a grant from Hydro Ottawa and United Way Ottawa’s Brighter Tomorrows Fund has made it possible to for the organization to open a new retail outlet with art and jewelry made by youth who frequent the centre.

“It is really hard to get funding for this type of space, idea,” said Elspeth McKay, executive director of Operation Come Home.

The organization received more than $9,000 to incorporate a number of small upgrades which were outlined in a 2011 energy audit.

The building had insulation installed in the walls and headers, replaced toilets and installed an electronic thermostat - all of which allowed the youth-oriented organization to direct their operation costs directly to services and programs.

The result, McKay said, was the storefront called Repurpose.

“We already had a jewelry business, called Beadworks and when we moved into this building, we had the retail space to expand and with this funding taking care of the other expenses, we had the opportunity,” she said.

Canada’s Economic Action Plan It is stormy waters in the world today. Across Europe and the United States, millions go without work. Those who do work face a lifetime of crippling taxation to pay for the entitlements of their countrymen and the debts of their governments. Canada by contrast is strong.

MICHELLE NASH/METROLAND

Mike Tremblay, 22 and Kristi Rogers, 23, show off their jewelry made at Operation Come Home. The jewelry will be sold in the organization’s new store, Repurpose, which will open on Sept. 24.

The organization focuses on turning at-risk youths lives around through education and programs, such as the new storefront. According to McKay, this storefront gives youth a chance to find a purpose.

United Way Ottawa changed the way the way the organization allocated funding raised from its annual campaign two years ago, creating goal priorities and criteria to appeal to donors.

Hydro Ottawa, which participates in the campaign, took a portion of its donations and directed the funds towards the Brighter Tomorrows Fund, an energy efficiency improvement program.

“It is not sexy, but this fund-

ing allows organizations to improve and reduce its running costs,” said Bryce Conrad, chief executive of Hydro Ottawa. “It is truly a privilege to be here and see first hand what our contributions can do.”

Rideau-Vanier Coun. Mathieu Fleury, the United Way’s 2012 campaign co-chairman, said this is what the United Way’s funding is all about targeting communities and organizations that need it.

“The Brighter Tomorrows Fund is a great example of how United Way works with organizations to achieve their business and corporate social responsibility objectives, while addressing a specific need in the community,” said

Fleury. “In this case, community agencies often do not have the funds to improve the energy efficiency of their facilities, but now, thanks to Hydro Ottawa, they have access to funding.”

In the past 11 years, Hydro Ottawa and its employees have contributed more than $1 million in support of the campaign.

This year, the company gave $85,696 to the fund, which was distributed to Operation Come Home and six other agencies in the Ottawa region.

Repurpose will officially open its doors on Sept. 24.

More information on the store or the organization is available at operationcomehome.ca.

Many believe that the 2008 US financial collapse and recession were the result of irresponsible behaviour by business and banks.

In fact, this behaviour was merely the symptom. The illness was massive government intervention to turn the mortgage business into a social program. The government encouraged millions of Americans to spend money they did not have on homes they could not afford, using loans they could never repay. It then gave them a tax incentive never to repay it by allowing them to write off their mortgage interest. The bigger the mortgage debt, the lower the taxes. The U.S. government debt is now bigger than the entire American economy and one in five American households had mortgages that were bigger than the value of their homes.

Mark Steyn points out, according to the congressional budget office, that by 2020 the United States government will be spending more annually on debt interest than the total combined military budgets of China, Britain, France, Russia, Japan, Germany, Saudi Arabia, India, Italy, South Korea, Brazil, Canada, Australia, Spain, Turkey and Israel.

Yet if America is jogging off the debt cliff, Europe is sprinting.

The European welfare state borrows on taxes to give people stuff they have not earned. Standard and Poor’s has downgraded French and Austrian government debt and has reduced the ratings of seven other countries in the Euro currency block. Because no one will lend their own money, the European Central Bank must step up and lend 150 billion Euro of other people’s money.

Thank goodness, the EU has a bailout fund to prevent government defaults. Too bad Standard and Poor’s has downgraded that bailout fund, so soon the bailout fund will need a bailout.

Margaret Thatcher pointed out that the problem with socialism is that eventually you run out of other people’s money. We call that a “sovereign debt crisis”.

Thank You for Choosing Health.

I describe this humiliating American and European experiment with the welfare state because it is precisely the same experiment the opposition and its union bosses wish to impose on Canada. We know where it leads. Everyone takes and nobody makes. Work does not pay and indulgence does not cost. Money is free and money is worthless.

Y

our contributions to Healthpartners, through the GCWCC campaign, help to save lives, fund groundbreaking research, and provide support to Canadians in every community who are dealing with life-changing illnesses.

Canada is one of the greatest success stories of human history precisely because our leaders were practical and smart. From the beginning, they understood the basic rules of success: people should work hard, pay their bills, spend only what they have and let free people do the rest.

More freedom meant less government. Low-cost government meant a low-tax nation. Then, as now, Canada’s low-tax system worked. In the first 20 years of the 20th century our population grew by an unprecedented two-thirds, the wheat yields in the Prairies by 500% and exports more than doubled.

Thank you for helping us help Canadians.

Today we have an economic action plan based on our history. To stay strong, Canada must never repeat the mistakes of Europe and the United States and we must instead focus on what Canada has already done right.

Sonographer Tahir Mahmood is pictured with ultrasound equipment during the official opening of the urgent care wing of the Rideau Valley Health Services Centre in Barrhaven on Sept. 10.

Urgent care centre opens in Barrhaven jennifer.mcintosh@metroland.com

EMC news - Barrhaven, Manotick and Riverside South residents now have an alternative to heading to the emergency room thanks to a new urgent care centre on Greenbank Road.

The urgent care centre – which opened on Sept. 10 – is part of the Rideau Valley Health Centre, which opened in November.

“Barrhaven and Manotick have always been part of the Kemptville District Hospital’s catchement,” said CEO Colin Goodfellow. “Fifty years ago it was just a small community in the middle of farmers’ fields, but now we have to bring services to the area.”

Goodfellow said the new centre has nine treatment spaces, a casting room, diagnostic imaging and an ambulance bay. He said he expects it will generate the same number of visits per year as the Kemptville Hospital – which

sees about 21,000 patients per year.

“This will also unclog emergency rooms and it won’t keep you there for 20 hours and cost you $20 in parking,” Goodfellow said.

Sonographer Tahir Mahmood said the ultrasound equipment onsite will help doctors examine joints and vascular areas as well as carry out the more traditional abdominal and pelvic exams.

“It’s very safe and a lot less expensive than an MRI or CT Scan,” Mahmood said.

Goodfellow said the ambulance bay is for patients with vascular or other serious problems that need to be taken to hospital. There is also space used to stabilize patients who will be transported to an emergency room.

The centre will be open from 8 a.m. to 9 p.m. from Monday to Friday, and Saturday from 8 a.m. to 3 p.m.

There will be one fulltime

physician per shift and two registered nurses, which Goodfellow said is similar to the staffing at the Kemptville Hospital. The physician team could also expand in the coming months.

Jenny Read who handles communications for the hospital, said an innovative funding model allowed the centre to open in three years with without the use of public funds.

“Opening a hospital would have taken 20 years and millions of dollars,” she said.

“This way we are addressing the needs of the area with no cost to taxpayer.”

The funding model essentially means that the doctors and pharmacy on site pay their own overhead and any surplus goes into a non-profit fund for the Rideau Valley Health Centre.

The space is about 1,700 square metres and has the capacity to serve 200 patients a day according to Goodfellow, who added the average wait time shouldn’t be more than an hour.

Ottawa man knocked out of judo medal round Ian Ewing

EMC sports – In what was likely his first and last Paralympic Games, Tony Walby began brilliantly, before succumbing to world-class opponents and injury in the men’s 100+-kilogram judo event on Saturday, Sept. 1 in London.

The Riverside Park man was eliminated Saturday evening by the reigning two-time Paralympic gold medallist Ilham Zakiyev in the repechage round, finishing one step short of competing for a bronze medal.

In judo tournaments single elimination brackets are used to determine the finalists for the gold and silver medal match with the fighters they have beaten competing against each other for bronze in repechage rounds.

The mountainous Azerbaijani scored an ippon (the maximum score), to end the bout after only 1:44. Zakiyez went on to win one of two bronze medals, while Walby received medical attention for a second time that day – this time to treat what appeared to be a shoulder injury.

The Ottawa judoka was clearly upset after his loss, head hung in disappointment as he declined media interviews. For the man whose motivation was to win a Paralympic gold here, finishing seventh out of 12 athletes in his class was a bittersweet end to a dream reborn.

A long-time member of the national able-bodied judo team, the Takahashi Dojo athlete retired from the sport at 35 – about the time his vision deteriorated to the point of legal blindness. But two years later, when Walby discovered he qualified to compete in the Paralympics, he began training again.

“A couple years ago, it was a bit of a pipe dream,” he recalled during an interview earlier on the day of his Paralympic competition. “When I got closer and closer, it just came together.”

In his opening contest, the Mechanicsville-raised judoka convincingly beat Frenchman Julien Taurines in the round of 16 to advance to quarterfinals.

Walby controlled the match from start to finish, despite his significant weight disadvan-

Riverside Park’s Tony Walby celebrates his victory by ippon (maximum score) over Julien Taurines of France in the first round of his Paralympic competition on Saturday, Sept. 1 in London. tage. After several near-successful attacks, Walby finally got his opponent’s back and threw him for a spectacular ippon two minutes and two seconds in.

“I fought him once earlier this year in Germany,” Walby said after that match, “and threw him with almost the same throw.”

After a couple unsuccessful attempts, he described, “I got him just where I wanted, the perfect grip, and he went in the air and went down.”

The Canadian contingent in the crowd, including his wife, 17-week-old daughter, and a number of other family, went wild.

There was little time for celebration, however. Walby’s quarterfinal matchup later that session came against Yangaliny Dominguez Jimenez

of Cuba, who he’d previously lost to at the Parapan American Games.

“I didn’t have a great match against him at the Pan Americans,” Walby admitted, “but this isn’t the Pan Americans.

This is a whole new thing.

“I feel good. I feel strong.”

The positive attitude was warranted. Over four minutes into their five-minute contest, the Canadian and the Cuban were still knotted at zeros, each foiling the other’s every attack. Just when it seemed a golden point (sudden-death round) was certain, disaster struck.

With 11 seconds remaining on the clock, Walby attacked, looking for a hip throw. The Cuban took advantage of Walby’s high body position and countered with ko soto gari (small outside leg reap),

throwing him to the ground and landing all 100+ kilograms on top of Walby, whose fingers were in a hyper-extended position at the bottom.

The referee signalled a single point as the Canadian cried out in pain.

As a Canadian trainer rushed onto the mat, the three referees gathered. After a few moments of confusion, they signalled an ippon, and the Cuban was declared the victor.

WALBY DISPLAYS HIGHEST INTEGRITY

After receiving attention from the team doctor and learning nothing was broken in his hand, Walby explained what happened. In a great deal of pain when his fingers were caught as they fell, Walby

tapped out instantly.

But the referee hadn’t noticed. He was prepared to let the match continue – that is, until Walby told him.

“At that point right then, I was OK. I probably could have continued fighting,” recounted the veteran who is also a lead instructor at Takahashi Dojo on Melrose Avenue. “But I’m a fair play guy, and I did tap right away, so I told him. That ended the match.”

DISAPPOINTING FINISH FOR NEW FATHER

Later, the federal government computer engineer entered his evening repechage bout, where a win would propel him into a bronze medal match.

But almost from the utterance of “hajime” (begin), it

was clear Walby was in trouble. The hulking Zakiyev controlled the fight from the start and the Canadian appeared to be just hanging on. Then in an instant, the dream was over.

Now 39, Walby is unlikely to make the trip to Rio de Janeiro in four years as an athlete, although he is interested in helping to grow the Canadian para-judo program from a coaching perspective. But there is certainly an unforgettable memory that he’ll carry from his Paralympic experience.

“For my little daughter to be in the stands, my newborn …” Walby trailed off, finding his words.

“I know she won’t remember it, but I will, for the rest of my life. To me, that’s probably the biggest thing, knowing she’s right there.”

Bittersweet B final win for Blair in London Dan Plouffe

DAN PLOUFFE

David Blair, right, and the Canadian mixed coxed four adaptive rowing team got to finish their Paralympics with some smiles as they won the B final at Eton Dorney in London. est member of the Canadian crew, Blair’s teammates had warned him that the Paralympics would be unlike any other competition he’d previously participated in, and that turned out to be the case when he made his Paralympic debut on Friday, Aug. 31.

“My first race going down,

I knew I would get a surge of energy just by knowing where I am, hearing everything that’s going on,” recounted Blair, whose team was over six seconds behind eventual gold medalist Great Britain in the heats to miss the lone automatic qualifying position in the final.

“My focus was on being as technically clean as possible,” the Ottawa Rowing Club member added. “By the end of the race, I had so much energy still that I could give from absorbing everything that was coming from the crowd. It’s been pretty incredible.”

The repechage round on

Sept. 1 was when the big letdown came for the Canadians.

With two more places available in the final, Ukraine and China both beat Canada to the line in 3:23.53 and 3:25.03, compared to Canada’s 3:28.82.

“It was disappointing, especially because we were in

R0011613653

EMC sports - If you’d told Ottawa’s David Blair prior to the Paralympic Games that his Canadian crew would win their race on the final day of rowing, you can bet he’d have been on top of the world.

And that’s precisely what played out in London, but the big surprise was that Canada’s LTA4+ mixed coxed four adaptive rowing team was racing in the B final for seventh to 12th place.

Canada won the race in three minutes, 31.17 seconds – close to one second ahead of France. But make no mistake – the Canadian team’s performance in London was a bitter disappointment on the heels of gold and silver medals at the 2010 and 2011 world championships, although they did get to end their Paralympic experience on positive note.

“Obviously given our track record, we wanted to be in the A final,” Blair said on the dock at Eton Dorney. “But that wasn’t in the cards, so we all needed to reset and come here today focused with a new goal, and that’s what we did.

“It was a good confident, relaxed feeling warming up.

It feels good to come out in first in whatever race you’re in. That was nice.”

A national team member for only two years and the young-

contact,” said the Merivale High School grad who now studies humanities at Carleton University. “If we had our best race, I think we could have qualified.”

Blair said it wasn’t so much a case of the Canadians racing poorly, it was just that their competition enjoyed standout races.

“The level stepped up,” added the rower who is visually-impaired and wears a blinder so that he’s not able to see at all. “If you look at our times, they’ve been pretty consistently around there. It was more that other crews from other countries upped the bar in a big way and we weren’t capable of responding.”

Despite the disappointment, Blair sounded somewhat at peace with the result.

The 20-year-old was already thinking about the future and taking another crack at the Paralympics come 2016 in Rio de Janeiro.

“I spent every day trying to get ready for these Games,” he said. “About a week ago I realized I never want to stop improving. I’m never going to be at that point where I can say, ‘Yes, OK, this is the best I’m ever going to be.’ I came in here knowing that I’m going to give it my all and when I come back next time I’m going to be even faster.

“I’ll definitely do it again.”

EMC sports - The tension in the Copper Box gymnasium was only elevated by the fact their sport must be played in complete silence so the players with visual impairments can hear the small bell ring inside the ball when itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s rolled.

Tied in the ďŹ nal moments, the Ottawa-based Canadian womenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s goalball team was involved in similar high-stakes matches on back-to-back days at the London 2012 Paralympic Games. But the emotions they felt when the deciding goals were scored were polar

opposites.

The ďŹ rst day, it was elation.

Prior to the Tuesday, Sept.

4 contest, the Canadians had dropped their ďŹ rst game of the tournament 2-1 to Sweden, but rebounded to knock off Australia 3-1, and then Japan 2-1. A victory over the U.S. would give them ďŹ rst place in their pool â&#x20AC;&#x201C; otherwise it was likely theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d face powerhouse China in the playoff round.

The game was scoreless the whole way through, but with under two seconds left, Nancy Morin ďŹ red a shot home down the sideline to give Canada the 1-0 victory.

Loss can’t break team’s family feeling Continued from page 30

It was the abrupt end to the Canadians’ podium dreams, after training together daily in Ottawa for the majority of 2012 – the first time the team has ever been able to centralize leading up to a Paralympic Games, which was made possible thanks to Own The Podium funding.

“It was really tough,” said coach Janice Dawson, adding that her girls played great throughout the event. “I thought they did really well.

We had a bit of shaky start but we just got stronger as we went on.

“Of course I think we deserved a better fate. The girls trained so hard and they wanted it so badly, but the same can be said for any team that’s here.”

Whether the squad will re-

turn to Ottawa as a group any time soon is unclear. The immediate plan was for everyone to go home after the Games, take time to regroup and plan for the future.

Five of the six team members lived together in the same apartment building.

Team members Kneebone, Bogart, Jill MacSween and Cassie Orgeles all moved to Ottawa at various times in recent years before the full team came to town and made Algonquin College their home base.

Dawson, meanwhile, was born and raised in the capital before pursuing high-performance long-track speed skating in Calgary, where she now

lives.

Living in close quarters at the Athletes Village was nothing new for the team, which also included Morin of Longeuil, Que. and Ashlie Andrews of Penticton, B.C. Five of the six team members lived together in the same apartment building at Prince of Wales and Meadowlands, while Orgeles was less than two blocks away.

“We spent a lot of time together,” Bogart smiled, noting most of their downtime at the Paralympics was spent in their rooms, catching up on TV shows such as Big Brother and Hell’s Kitchen. “We were watching funny movies to pass the time and stay relaxed.”

March-in for Opening Ceremonies was a huge highlight for the players, along with getting to perform in front of a close-to-soldout crowd larger than 80 – the amount Knee-

bone estimated was their previous non-Paralympics high.

Having friends and family in the stands was the most special part in her view.

“It was the first time they’ve really got to see us play internationally, so I’m really happy we were able to put a show on for them,” noted the 22-yearold.

There was unquestionably a family feel to the tight-knit group. And now for two of the players, they will soon be family for real. Bogart’s brother proposed to Kneebone shortly before they took off for London, and the couple are now engaged to be married, although a date has yet to be established.

“While we’re here, we’re focused on goalball,” Bogart highlighted. “But as soon as we’re done, we get to plan a wedding!”

Blue sugar bowl was sometimes lacking

T

here was no doubt about it, Father needed a new suit.

The only one he owned was threadbare, and even though he hadnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t grown an inch, the cuffs on the legs were above his ankles.

No doubt because Mother had tried to wash it one Monday and now even the sleeves were too short. There was no getting around it. He needed a new suit, and the ad in the weekly Renfrew Mercury was just what the doctor ordered â&#x20AC;&#x201C; three pieces for $14. Father said there was no money for such frivolity. Mother said going to the Lutheran Church on Sunday dressed like a tramp raised the purchase well above frivolity.

I knew Mother had waited until the big wood box of hand-me-downs had come from Aunt Lizzie in Regina to make sure there wouldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t be something suitable from Uncle Jack. But as always, whatever Uncle Jack once wore had to be severely

EMC news - A school bus driver is being commended for staying cool under pressure after his bus caught ďŹ re on the afternoon of Sept. 7.

There were more than 50 young children on the bus

to sell at least four chickens, ďŹ ve or six pounds of butter, and six dozen eggs to make up the difference between what was sitting on the ice-box and what the suit would cost.

The day before we were to head into Renfrew, just before we were to sit down to eat at noon, Father came into the kitchen with a long piece of harness in his hands. He stood silently at the back door, never taking his eyes off it. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Broke. Just as I was putting it on Queenie. This is the piece I have ďŹ xed at least a dozen times. Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m afraid it wonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t take another ďŹ xing. Canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t use the team without it.â&#x20AC;?

He didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t have to say any more. Mother went to the ice box and slid the coins into her hand with the bills. She looked at it for a minute and walked over to the door and handed it to Father. It would take just about all of it to replace the worn-out harness that should have been replaced long before. Horses and their harness meant survival back in

â&#x20AC;&#x153;The bus driver deserves accolades for getting the kids out so quickly,â&#x20AC;? said Ottawa ďŹ re Capt. Sid McLennan.

At least two ďŹ re trucks from a station nearby on Viewmount responded and doused the ďŹ re, which produced masses of black smoke for a short period of time. Soon after the ďŹ re was extinguished, the First Student Canada bus could be seen with its front engine compartment and rear emergency exit hanging open.

The damage appeared contained right at the front of the bus and the passenger compartment was unaffected.

The students on the bus were travelling from a school

Parkwood Hills and were headed for the Chapman Mills area of Barrhaven when the ďŹ re started. The students will attend a new school in Chapman Mills later this year but are currently being bused to Parkwood Hills until their new school is completed.

Another bus was quickly called in after the ďŹ re and the students were transferred to it so they could continue on their way.

They were in good spirits despite the ďŹ re and waved at the ďŹ reďŹ ghters as their new bus left the gas stationâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s parking lot.

McLennan said the cause of the engine ďŹ re is unknown.

The driver quickly evacuated about 50 children. There were no injuries.

MARY COOK Mary Cookâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Memories altered before it would ďŹ t Father. Uncle Jack was about Fatherâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s height, but there the similarity ended.

My sister Audrey said he looked like a pineapple. I have no idea how she knew what a pineapple looked like, because I never knew one to come into the house, but I did know Uncle Jack was more round than long. His arms were huge and hung well below his hips, and it always looked like he was carrying a bag of grain under his jacket. Without altering the suit, you could put at least two of Father in it.

Now Mother, when she moved to the farm out in Northcote, tried her best to master the old pedal Singer

sewing machine and she did well on simple things like clothes for Audrey and me, making aprons and even simple house dresses out of Dan River cotton, but when it came to trying to make Father ďŹ t into one of Uncle Jackâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s suits, she failed miserably.

It always ended up that the suits, after being taken apart, became jumpers or skirts for my sister and me.

The Mercury had come in the middle of the week and Mother said there was just about enough money in the blue sugar bowl in the back-to-the-wall cupboard to buy the suit. What was lacking would be made up when Mother peddled her eggs, but-

ter and chickens on Saturday in Renfrew. So it was decided Saturday was the day Father would be getting his new $14 suit. The excitement ran high that week in our old log house in Northcote.

That didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t mean we could ease off on the workload. Chores were done as usual morning and night in the barns and Mother made sure my sister Audrey and I kept up with what was expected of us in the house too. But youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d think we were all getting a new outďŹ t, not just Father, as the day of this major purchase drew closer.

Mother took the blue sugar bowl out of the cupboard a few days before we were to head into Renfrew. She dumped the coins out on the kitchen table with a couple crumpled $1 bills. Then she moved the money over to the top of the ice box and stacked the coins in little piles on top of the bills. The blue sugar bowl went back into the cupboard. She ďŹ gured sheâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d have

The driver pulled into the Esso gas station at the corner of Merivale Road and Viewmount Drive and evacuated the children, who all appeared to be under the age of 10. No one was hurt.

the 1930s. A farmer couldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t farm without either.

Nothing more was said about the $14 suit. We went into Renfrew as usual on Saturday for our few supplies, bought only after Mother made her house calls along the back streets of the town with the cleaned chickens, butter and eggs. That day she had sticky buns as well.

It would be a long time before the blue sugar bowl had in it enough for what Father called a frivolity like a new suit. Sunday morning saw him at the Lutheran Church in the same old suit he had worn for years.

Easy-to-make ‘mother sauce’ has unlimited possibilities

O

f all the millions of recipes that exist in cookbooks, there’s one which is found more often than any other.

It appears in cookbooks published around the world – from Eastern Ontario to France to Australia. You probably have it in at least one of the cookbooks in your kitchen right now.

The recipe is for a “basic white sauce,” and it’s made with three ingredients – butter, flour and milk.

In France, they call it “one of the great sauces,” but they also have another name for it – the “sauce mere” or “mother sauce.”

And that’s probably the best name for this sauce because it’s the starting point for so many different recipes.

It can be flavoured with cheese, herbs, mustard or wine, and served over vegetables, meat, poultry or fish.

Although the basic white sauce has been used in both home and professional kitchens for years, it became a lot simpler to make with the introduction of the microwave.

The recipe that follows is for creamed salmon on toast, a convenient and quick supper dish. It starts with a medium white sauce

PAT TREW Food ‘n’ Stuff high, uncovered, for four to five minutes.

During this time, stir the sauce once every minute, scraping around the bottom of the bowl to mix in all the flour paste.

When the sauce is slightly thickened, cook it one to two minutes longer on high.

This time, stir the sauce every 30 seconds to prevent lumps from forming and the sauce from boiling over.

The sauce is done when it’s thickened and bubbly.

If you’re making creamed salmon on toast, place the half teaspoon of butter, frozen peas and onion in a small microwave-safe dish.

Cover and cook on high for two minutes.

Stir the onion mixture and the salmon into the white sauce. Cook on high for one to two minutes longer, stirring every 30 seconds, to heat the salmon.

To serve, spoon over toast. Use one or two pieces of toast per person. Serves four.

and you can use this basic sauce recipe for any other dish that calls for it. The microwave technique for cooking it is explained stepby-step.

CREAMED SALMON ON TOAST

• 2 tbsp. butter or margarine • 2 tbsp. flour • 2 cups milk • 1/2 tsp. butter or margarine • 1/2 cup frozen peas • 1/2 medium onion, chopped • 2 cans (213 gram) salmon, drained • salt, pepper to taste Use a microwave-safe bowl or a measuring cup that holds four cups. In the bowl, melt two tablespoons of butter or margarine on high for 40 to 50 seconds.

West-end basketball associations look to merge programs EMC sports - A plan to combine competitive basketball programs in the city’s west end is a slam dunk for developing young players, said Dave DeAveiro, president of the Kanata Youth Basketball Association.

The Kanata and Goulbourn basketball associations, which serve hundreds of youth between the ages of five and 18 in house league and competitive programs, agreed last summer to begin discussions on a possible merger of their competitive teams.

A west-end basketball association could one day also include players from Osgoode, Rideau, Carleton Place, West Carleton and Arnprior, said DeAveiro.

“Soccer’s gone that route,” said DeAveiro. “They’ve taken all the west-end clubs and merged them into one.

“When you combine all the smaller associations and form just one large association, you have all the best kids playing together and they don’t have to leave their area to go and play (competitively).”

Details of the proposed merger still have to be ironed out and nothing has been approved by the executives of either association.

“Discussions continue towards looking at an Ottawa

west organization including Kanata and Goulbourn and will continue on throughout the coming year to ensure members’ expectations … have been met,” said Paula Warnholtz, a member of the Kanata Youth Basketball Association executive.

Discussions are still in the early stages between the presidents of both associations, who will bring a proposal for consideration by their associations’ executives at a later date.

If the merger is approved, the new west-end basketball association – the name has yet to be decided – would start with a pilot-program next year, with up to four competitive teams in the younger age groups.

“We’re hoping two years from now there’ll be just one association in the west end,” said DeAveiro.

ELITE PROGRAM

DeAveiro said a merger is the next logical step in a process that started this year, with the Kanata basketball association agreeing to absorb the Ottawa Next Level, an elite-level program that develops some of the best players across the city.

“It’s a vision of building basketball in the west end, providing our kids with quality coaching and the competition

Dave DeAveiro, president of the Kanata Youth Basketball Association, is looking to merge Kanata and Goulbourn’s competitive basketball programs starting next year.

that they seek and desire,” said DeAveiro. “Our kids want to be exposed to and play against the best teams and those teams are Toronto, those teams are the U.S., those teams are Montreal.”

The merger will help children in all levels of basketball, from ages five to 18, including those in house league, said DeAveiro.

DeAveiro held tryouts for the under U-19 Ottawa Next Level basketball team at Franco Ouest high school on Sept.

5.

The players came from across the city and as far away as Brockville, all hoping for a chance to play on the elite-level team, a talented group that every year competes against some of the best teams in Ontario, Quebec and the United States.

DeAveiro created the Ottawa Next Level program in 2006, when he was the head coach of the University of Ottawa Gee-Gees men’s basketball team, as a way to scout and develop young players capable of making the jump to university ball when they graduate from high school.

“There’s so much talent out there right now,” he said.

“Right now we’ve fallen short in terms of providing them with the programs, the coaches, the resources that these kids need to become very good basketball players and compete against the powerhouses, which is more (in) southern Ontario.

Basketball associations consider merger Continued from 34

â&#x20AC;&#x153;We believe thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s enough good basketball players in Ottawa, where our kids are all together and theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re not scattered playing for different teams, that can compete against teams in Toronto and beat them.â&#x20AC;?

DEVELOPMENT

David Byck, president of the Goulbourn Basketball Association, said the proposed merger would provide more opportunities to develop players on house league, competitive and elite teams. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It just increases the gene pool,â&#x20AC;? said Byck. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The better the players, the better the programs â&#x20AC;&#x201C; that has a ripple effect; we can provide more resources for our houseleague coaches.â&#x20AC;?

House league and competitive league coaches would have the opportunity to learn from Ottawa Next Level coaches, as well as from guest speakers from the Ontario Basketball Association and special coaching clinics.

Byck said this will have a â&#x20AC;&#x153;trickle-down effectâ&#x20AC;? on all levels of basketball.

Goulbourn and Kanataâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s house league teams would still run under the name of

the Goulbourn Hornets and the Kanata Cavaliers, he added. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Goulbourn has a very strong reputation around the province and we donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t want to lose that,â&#x20AC;? said Byck. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a big concern of ours.â&#x20AC;?

Creating an elite-level program in the west end would keep Kanata and Stittsvilleâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s players in the community, said Byck.

In the past, Goulbournâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s best basketball players travelled as far as Gloucester to play on competitive teams. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s tough on the families; thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s tough on the parents,â&#x20AC;? said Byck.

The proposed merger wouldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t result in any unusual fee increases, said Byck.

DeAveiro said he hopes the west Ottawa basketball association will eventually expand to include teams and players from Carleton Place, Arnprior and West Carleton. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Down the road weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re looking at making it bigger in bringing Goulbourn into the situation and building basketball speciďŹ cally in the west end,â&#x20AC;? he said.

The Ottawa Next Level teams will still make use of gymnasiums at Immaculata, Ridgemont and other Ottawa high schools.

Gloucester native publishes graphic novel Blair.edwards@metroland.com

EMC - entertainment - Applying for a job as an illustrator can be a tough sell, said Jo Rioux.

Illustrators fresh out of art school ritually pepper magazine and book publishers with postcards decorated with their art, hoping to catch someoneâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s eye. Rioux spent several years developing her craft and waiting to get noticed before she got her ďŹ rst big break.

After she graduated from the art program at Sheridan College in Oakville, Ont., Rioux sent out hundreds of postcards, with no reply. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s one of those things,â&#x20AC;? said the 30-year-old Kanata Lakes woman. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It can really get lost in the shufďŹ&#x201A;e.â&#x20AC;?

The trick is meeting someone in person, said Rioux, who presently holds a full-time job designing graphics and animations for Smarter Apps, located in downtown Ottawa.

Rioux, who recently published The Golden Twine, a graphic novel for young adults, landed her ďŹ rst publishing deal after cornering the editor-inchief of Kids Can Press during a book signing at Ottawaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Museum of Nature in 2007.

At the time, Rioux was working at a boutique in the museum. The ďŹ&#x201A;edgling then25-year-old artist introduced herself to the editor and handed her a business card along with samples of her work.

A few days later, Rioux received a contract offer from Kids Can Press, asking her to illustrate a childrenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s comic book series called Sam and Friends Mysteries. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I was pretty ecstatic because in Ottawa thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s no book publishing business that will employ illustrators like me,â&#x20AC;? she said.

In 2007, the publishing company was just starting its graphic novel program. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I checked out her portfolio and I just loved it,â&#x20AC;? said Karen Li, editor of Kids Can Press. â&#x20AC;&#x153;What I was looking for was something that would appeal to kids who love manga,â&#x20AC;? she said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I knew she could speak the language of manga.â&#x20AC;?

Rioux produced four books over the next three years, publishing the last of the series in 2010. Last month, Rioux published her ďŹ rst graphic novel that she wrote and illustrated.

The Golden Twine, the ďŹ rst book of the Catâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Cradle series, is set in a fantasy world and is about a little girl, abandoned at birth, who teams up with a giant dog and an imp to ďŹ nd her family.

The book sells for $9.99 in paperback and $17.99 in hardcover and is available at Chapters, Indigo, Coles or online at www.amazon.ca. So far, 2,700 copies have been sold.

Riouxâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s long road to becoming a paid illustrator started when she was a child growing up in Gloucester.

The young artist loved to read French-language comic books, devouring titles such as Spirou et Fantasio and later, when she learned to speak English, comics illustrated using the Japanese manga style of art. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I was deďŹ nitely inďŹ&#x201A;uenced by it,â&#x20AC;? she said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Anyone who gets my book (can) see that.â&#x20AC;?

Later, she attended De La Salle French public school in downtown Ottawa, where she studied in a special arts program that included one hour of visual arts everyday.

KIDSâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; LIT GALA

Rioux will share some advice about breaking into the publishing business during the

BLAIR EDWARDS/METROLAND

Jo Rioux has recently published her first graphic novel that she both wrote and illustrated. The Kanata Lakes woman is already sifting through several dozen ideas for her next book.

12th-annual Kidâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Lit Gala, scheduled to be held in the Chamber Room of Ben Franklin Place in Nepean on Oct. 16, starting at 7 p.m.

She will be one of 10 artists and authors appearing at the childrenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s literature gala.

Rioux said her ďŹ rst tip for new artists is to learn from other illustrators and authors. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t try to re-invent the wheel,â&#x20AC;? she said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a lot of great authors out there. Take some paneling here and there, glean from whatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s already been done.â&#x20AC;?

Artists can also take advantage of the tools available on the web, she added. â&#x20AC;&#x153;With the Internet you can get exposure for your own work,â&#x20AC;? she said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;DeďŹ nitely put your stuff out there so you can get feedback and get better.â&#x20AC;?

Artists should learn their trade by drawing in black and

white, she said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I would advise people to start black and white,â&#x20AC;? she said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It teaches you whatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s important visually and then you can move on to colour.â&#x20AC;?

Much of Riouxâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s art is produced on her computer. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Invest in a good tablet, draw on it with a stylus or plastic pen â&#x20AC;&#x201C; it is so much easier to draw.â&#x20AC;?

Rioux still does much of her work on paper, drawing her panels using a blue colerase pencil. She later scans

NOCO Fuels Canada awarded Esso branded Fuels and Lubricants reseller business for Eastern Ontario by Imperial Oil

Be our guest

A recent investment by a family owned company is making business news in Eastern Ontario. NOCO Canada, a family owned and locally operated company has been serving Canadaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s energy needs for decades. The company is leveraging their rich heritage in the business with an expansion of their fuel and lubricant operations into the Trenton and Ottawa areas. As a proud Esso and Mobil branded reseller, NOCO supplies heating oil, gasoline, diesel, and lubricants to serve residential, farm, commercial, and industrial customers. â&#x20AC;&#x153;With almost eighty years of experience in the energy business, we are honoured to have the opportunity to serve the hard working consumers of this region,â&#x20AC;? noted Mark Yeatman, General Manager of NOCO Fuels Canada, a wholly owned subsidiary of NOCO Canada.

With this expansion, NOCO has established more local ofďŹ ces to efďŹ ciently and safely deliver high-quality products at competitive prices. With ofďŹ ce locations in Toronto, Trenton, Ottawa and Pembroke, NOCO simpliďŹ es access for their customers by allowing them to get all of their products from one place.

One major change customers will see is the elimination of a national call center. By establishing local ofďŹ ces and working with local personnel, NOCO is keeping business local and investing in communities. Other improved operations include online ordering and automatic payments, with online billpay coming soon. NOCOâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s customers can expect the prompt, courteous, and dependable service they deserve.

As the second largest Mobil distributor in North America, NOCOâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s expansion has created a stronger product mix to more completely serve their customers.

The company provides a full line of Mobil lubricants for automotive, ďŹ&#x201A;eet, industrial, metalworking, and specialty needs. NOCO also offers a used oil recycling program in some areas to make sure that businesses never need to worry about the proper collection, transportation, and processing of the waste they generate. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We believe the addition of the new products and new geography allows NOCO to address unmet consumer needs in the territory. Along with our key product brands, Mobil and Esso, we offer excellent service and local personnel.

Our distribution model is strong and this new venture will provide strong value to the consumers throughout the region,â&#x20AC;? said James D. Newman, President of NOCO Canada.

For more information, visit noco.ca or call 1-888-284-7777.

From September 17 to 23 youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re invited to participate in our aquafitness, cycling and group fitness classes or workout in our fitness centre FREE of charge!

EMC news - The Old Ottawa South Art and Music Festival returns later this month for a weekend filled with sights and sounds for the whole family.

Now in its eighth year, the two-day festival will be held in Windsor Park on Sept. 15 and 16. This year 40 artists will set up booths at the festival which hosts artists and musicians from Ottawa and the surrounding region.

The festival, started as Old Ottawa Southâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s own version of Art in the Park, has grown into what organizer Susan Phipps said a family-fun affair. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Try to have something always fun for the whole family,â&#x20AC;? Phipps said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We want it to be fun for everyone.â&#x20AC;?

The artists who show at the festival must meet two requirements, the art work must be original, created by the artist and it must fit into the acceptable media requirements, such as a painting, drawing, mixed media, photography, sculpture or pottery.

Singers, fiddlers, jazz bands and a drumming ensemble will be among the perform-

Art ideas to help Rideau Street’s image Laura Mueller laura.mueller@metroland.com

EMC arts - Creating a conversation between the two ends of Rideau Street was a main theme of the public art pieces proposed for the downtown thoroughfare.

As part of Ottawa’s One Per Cent for Art program, the city will spend approximately $135,000 to install outdoor artworks along Rideau after it is reconstructed from Dalhousie Street to the Cummings Bridge over this year and next.

Rideau-Vanier Coun. Mathieu Fleury said he is a supporter of the city’s public art program.

“It adds some cultural, visual pieces to the street,” he said.

“We always complain that there is too much concrete and streets are too heavy on cement,” Fleury said. “With the addition of tree planters and other (things), you’re able to really … beautify the street.”

The city asked artists to submit proposals for art that could unify the street, from the “downtown Rideau,” considered the urban theatre, fashion and arts district, and “uptown Rideau,” the eastern portions of residential Lowertown and Sandy Hill and where the street meets the Rideau River.

Four finalists, who each received a honourarium of $2,500, showed off their designs during an open house at the Rideau Street library branch on Sept. 5.

MARK THOMPSON

Salem, Ont., glass artist Mark Thompson said he wanted to reflect the modernization of Rideau Street with four colourful glass beacons along Rideau Street.

The beacons themselves would be comprised of an interwoven grid of coloured glass that creates a shifting pattern as people pass by.

Each beacon would be inside a 1.1-metre glass cube atop a platform, mimicking information kiosks.

At night, the cubes would be lit from inside by blue-ish LED lighting, similar to the style of bright white streetlights that will be installed along Rideau Street.

“It would give a more contemporary feel to the whole thing,” said Thompson, who grew up in Alta Vista.

ERIN ROBERTSON AND ANNA WILLIAMS

A classical bronze sculpture of a woman and a man sharing a message via carrier pigeon was proposed by local artists Erin Robertson and

Anna Williams.

The duo recently completed a public art installed entitled Bellwether at the Longfields Transitway station in Barrhaven, consisting of a flock of four bronze sheep and a border collie.

The Rideau Street installation would include a main sculpture of a figure at either end of the street (possibly one at Cumberland Street and one at Wurtemburg Street), with 20 bronze pigeons scattered as groups, pairs and individuals down the length of Rideau Street.

A female figure standing on a chair speaking into a megaphone that emits carrier pigeons would be situated in the downtown section, while a male listener would receive the message in uptown Rideau.

“It is highlighting the need for communication between those two areas in our society,” said Williams, a Centretown resident.

“It creates at story, a kind of narrative as well,” said Robertson, who lives in Hintonburg.

“It’s something that someone can follow along the street … as they see one figure, then see the birds and where they are going and the other figure, and create a story between them,” Williams added.

DAVID WATSON

Manotick resident David Watson said his lifelong affinity for trees and their unique situation in urban environments was the inspiration for his proposal.

Watson designed three rectangular columns, each about 2.5- to three-metres tall and cast in bronze. The individually designed columns would have unique markings and a square base that would reflect the grate and interlock pavement settings that are often used to contain street trees.

The installation is a balance between “reason and spirit,” Watson said; “reason” representing the rigid setting that contains the trees in a harsh urban environment, and “spirit” being the life force of trees and nature that people connect with.

“In the city, everything is a concrete jungle,” Watson said. “I’m blown away by the symbolism (of street trees). It could be positive. It could be negative.”

That’s were the element of irony comes in, Watson said.

“It’s the irony of a free-spirited tree being reined in by the reason of the city,” he said.

LYNDA CRONIN

Stittsville resident Lynda Cronin wants to use the in-

Manotick resident David Watson proposed three tree-like bronze sculptures along Rideau Street as part of a call for public art ideas. ternational nautical symbols to express a message of “O’ Rideau” from one end of the street to the other.

“They all speak to each other,” Cronin said.

The smaller sculpture at Cummings Bridge simply says “O” on a single cube using the equivalent symbol from the international code. “Rideau” would be spelled out at the other end of the street at Cumberland Street in a stack of six 75-centimetre cubes to create

a 5.5-metre tall sculpture.

“They are talking to each other, like vessels do at sea, and like a person would do going down Rideau Street, (saying) ‘Hey there, I am over here,’” Cronin said.

Comments gathered at the open house were submitted to the public art selection panel to help inform the panelists’ decision. The winner of the competition will be revealed within the next two weeks.

Fall fashion to support Watson’s Mill this September Emma Jackson emma.jackson@metroland.com

EMC news – Heritage and high fashion will come together at a fall fashion show at Watson’s Mill on Friday, Sept. 28.

Since 2007, Nin Boutique owner Eva Michaliszyn has organized a charity fall fashion show for Manotick’s landmark heritage site, where she showcases her fall and winter collections while visitors enjoy a relaxing “girls’ night out” at the mill.

The evening begins at 7 p.m. and Black Dog Bistro will cater a mix and mingle hour with appetizers and wine on the mill’s main floor.

The Swing Bridge Band will keep everybody hopping throughout the hour.

At 8 p.m., guests will move to the mill’s upper level for the fashion show.

Chairs are stationed around the old milling machinery so that everyone gets a front row seat.

“It’s a relaxing evening, it’s rustic and has a nice atmosphere,” said Michaliszyn. “It’s a girls’ night out, it’s a really great couple of hours.”

Michaliszyn has owned her women’s clothing boutique for 28 years, and spent 20 years downtown Ottawa at Kent and Queen

Streets. Eight years ago the Manotick resident brought the business back to her own village and immediately began to give back to the community that embraced her.

“The town gave me a shot from the start. I was very, very lucky,” she said. “I do this to give back, it’s as simple as that.”

While she supports other causes throughout the year, “this is my main thing,” she said, because Watson’s Mill is such an important part of the community.

“That’s what makes us unique. We need to keep it up,” she said.

Mill manager Isabelle Geoffrion said Michaliszyn’s efforts have been a huge boon for the museum. Her fashion shows have already raised $30,000 for museum programming.

Geoffrion hopes to make about $5,000 this year between ticket sales and the evening’s raffles.

Tickets are $35 and include a drink voucher. All of the proceeds go towards Watson’s Mill programming – a huge help for the community museum, according to Geoffrion.

“Events like this that really help us make sure we have a whole calendar of public programming throughout the year,” she said. “There are all kinds of things that we do ... never mind all the milling

demonstrations and being open free to the public seven days a week.”

Geoffrion said Michaliszyn’s commitment to the museum makes her one of the village’s unsung heroes.

“It’s time we highlight her story a little bit because she’s been so incredibly generous with us,” she said.

While the mill provides some volunteers and helps with some logistical planning, Michaliszyn champions the show every year, Geoffrion said.

Michaliszyn said she will bring a mix of business, weekend and “after-five” fashions. She will not sell anything on site during the event, she said, because she doesn’t want to pressure anyone into buying.

However she will open her store on Manotick Main Street after the event until about midnight.

If nothing else, Geoffrion said the fashion show itself is worth seeing.

“The ladies of Manotick dress extremely well. (At this event) I’m usually the one whose the worst dressed in the entire building,” Geoffrion laughed. “It’s really fun and interesting to see.”

Tickets are available at Nin Boutique on Manotick Main Street or at the mill.

For more information call 613-692-6455.

Pet Adoptions SHEEBA

CHANEL

ID#A127117

ID#A138025

Sheeba is a spayed female, brown brindle and white Pit Bull Terrier mix who is about seven years old. She was surrendered to the shelter by her owner on April 25.

Sheeba loves to make friends with everyone and is very gentle and polite with strangers.

She has a moderate level of energy and will be happy to go on daily walks – she has excellent leash manners. Unfortunately because of the law in Ontario, she will need to wear a muzzle when out in public.

Sheeba is a very loving and respectful dog and she would appreciate the same treatment in return. She’d rather not live in a home with cats, but enjoys the company of other canines. She needs to live in a singledwelling home with a fully-fenced yard. Due to the law in Ontario concerning her breed, this is not negotiable.

Chanel is a spayed female, torbi Domestic Shorthair cat who is about four years old.

She was surrendered to the shelter by her owner on August 27.

Chanel loves to play with toy mice that rattle, and has been known to enjoy sitting or sleeping beside her human companions. She also loves neck rubs!

Chanel gets along well with other cats.

She prefers a litter box with tall sides – one that is always kept clean. She is used to having her litter cleaned twice daily.
