Draft budget hits 2% property tax hike target Jennifer McIntosh

jennifer.mcintosh@metroland.com

Residents will see a “reasonable” tax hike of two per cent according to the city’s 2016 draft budget. Mayor Jim Watson called the increase affordable and said it still allows the city to invest in key priorities – such as transit and affordable housing.

Cyclist hit by car in Findlay Creek area

Erin McCracken

erin.mccracken@metroland.com

A male cyclist was injured after he was hit by a vehicle at the intersection of Findlay Creek Drive and Bank Street in the Findlay Creek community Nov. 16. Paramedics were called to the area around 1:30 p.m. “He may have turned from Bank and did a quick turn and hit him,” said J.P.

Water rate going up 6%, OC Transpo set to hike fares

Trottier, Ottawa paramedic spokesman, said of the motorist involved in the incident. Few details were immediately available on how the cyclist and vehicle collided. The cyclist “suffered hip injuries” and was stable and awake at the scene, Trottier said, adding he also received bumps and bruises. “So it sounded a lot more serious than it actually was.”

Aside from the increase in their tax rate, residents can expect to pay 2.5 per cent more to ride the bus and six per cent more on their water bill. Deputy city treasurer Isabelle Jasmin said the increase to water bills would cost the average homeowner $49 annually. But city staff will bring a new water rate structure to council in the first quarter of 2016. Because of the fluctuation in water consumption, the revenues are unpredictable, causing staff to pull $2.9 million from the capital reserves this year. “That means less of your capital spending is coming from debt and less from cash,” Jasmin said. While the modest increase promises to maintain the status quo, council will be able to spend money on projects such as the expansion of the Blackburn Arena and renovations to the Walter Baker Sports Centre, Ray Friel Recreation Complex, the Bob MacQuarrie Recreation Complex and the Nepean Sportsplex. Watson said the increase in transit fares was a good balance between affordability and allowing the city to continue with light rail planning. “We’d like to freeze the rates, but we don’t have the ability to freeze wages or fleet maintenance,” Watson said, adding under former mayor Larry O’Brien’s leadership, council raised rates 7.5 per cent each year for three years. “That’s 22 per cent. We’re well below that and try to keep it reasonable,” he said. In an effort to save money, the city will cut 50 positions. Watson said the city planned to responsibly cut down on the workforce. While the city is cutting employees, the Ottawa police plan to hire 25 new officers. With no growth in members for the past three years, Ottawa police Chief Charles Bordeleau said pressure is mounting. “Where we are with staffing and workloads, we need to make members a priority,” said Bordeleau, defending

a decision to delay the department’s 17-point strategic facilities plan by a year, which could mean a delay in the construction of a new south-end facility. The police budget, which asks for a 1.75-per-cent – or $7.2-million – increase, would equal $11 a year on the average homeowner’s tax bill. The budget would allow for 25 new positions, which Bordeleau said would be mostly achieved by turning 25 temporary positions into permanent full-time.

“We’d like to freeze the rates, but we don’t have the ability to freeze wages or fleet maintenance.” Mayor Jim Watson on OC Transpo fares

“We are understaffed in our sexual assault unit,” Bordeleau said. Police director general Debra Frazer said the suicide of Kal Ghadban, an Ottawa police officer who took his own life a little more than a year ago, highlighted the need for the service to make member health and wellness a priority. “Studies show that workload is a big stressor,” she said. The priorities of the police service’s business plan for 2016 includes engaging with the members through an Ottawa police wellness program, working with the community on shared responsibility for safety, and delivering service excellence through operations. The chief’s operational priorities include: • Guns and gangs. • Violence against women. • Traffic safety. Between Nov. 23 and Dec. 7, the city’s committees and boards will be discussing the budget. Public delegations will be heard during the meetings. Residents can also email budget2016@ottawa.ca to share their comments.

A 70-year-old woman has died after the minivan she was driving crashed into a tree on the front lawn of a Smyth Road home, east of Haig Drive in the Riverview Park community. “We do think that perhaps the collision was caused by a medical event,” said J.P. Trottier, paramedic spokesman, adding an autopsy would likely provide conclusive answers as to how the single-car crash happened Nov. 16 around 1 p.m. on Smyth Road, just east of Haig Drive. “We have to be fair – if she lost consciousness because of a medical event her foot may have gone on the accelerator, but certainly the impact was severe,” he said. “There was quite a lot of damage. That indicates a certain amount of speed was involved in that collision. “Certainly that excessive speed may not have been on purpose (and may have been caused by her losing consciousness prior to the collision.” When paramedics arrived on scene, they found the driver

Three children and two adults suffered bumps and bruises after a car and a small school bus collided in the Hunt Club area, causing the bus to flip on its side. Paramedics weren’t far away when they were called to Hunt Club Road and Paul Anka Drive on Nov. 16, just after 4 p.m. “We found everybody out of the school bus,” said paramedic spokesman, J.P. Trottier. The children suffered bumps and bruises, and one suffered a leg injury, likely bruising, but none needed to be transported to hospital. “It could have been much worse than bumps and bruises,” Trottier said. “There’s no seatbelts on board school buses so they got tossed around a little bit. “It doesn’t take a huge impact to cause serious injuries.” One adult at the scene declined to be medically assessed. Another adult had also suffered bumps and bruises, but declined to go to hospital. It was not immediately

known which adult was driving the bus and which was operating the car involved in the crash. The children’s parents were promptly notified through the school bus company. Two of the kids were picked up at the scene, while police took home the third child, Trottier said. However, they all went home with instructions from paramedics, that parents should be alert for changes in their child’s health in the event they did in fact suffer a head injury. “Even if there are no head injuries … we recommend just monitor them closely, and see their family doctor or go down to emergency (at the hospital),” Trottier cautioned. Hunt Club West resident Cody Goudy was heading east on his way home from work on an OC Transpo bus when the transit bus he was in slowed to skirt the crash site, which was covered in bits of debris from the vehicles. “I simply saw the (school) bus on the side and saw the firefighter and paramedics,” he said. “We weren’t paused for more than 25 seconds in the area.”

About 100 people attend a meeting at Bernard-Grandmaître Catholic elementary school in Riverside South on Nov. 15. Residents have been signing a petition to drive change they hope will reduce traffic on their busy street.

Councillor/Conseillère Quartier Gloucester-Southgate Ward

At the City Council meeting of November 12, Mayor Jim Watson tabled the draft 2016 budget, which proposes a tax increase of 2%, transit fare hike of 2.5% and a water and sewer increase of 6%. On an average property tax bill, these increases translate into roughly $72 more per year for urban homeowners and $49 more per year for water and sewer. As with any budget, the devil is in the details. I’ll be spending the next few weeks combing through the documents and getting answers from City Staff regarding what this all means. The City’s budget is under intense pressure as a result of wage settlements, LRT funding, unpredictable winter weather, and lower-than-expected utility revenue. I want to be satisfied that any budget we approve is financially prudent and doesn’t lead to greater fiscal pressures down the road. That being said, I am pleased to announce that Gloucester-Southgate has been fortunate to secure a number of important proposed projects, including improvements to traffic safety, infrastructure, and community services. • Addition to Albion-Heatherington Community Centre Through a submission to the Canada 150 Community Infrastructure Program, the Albion-Heatherington Community Centre, if approved through the budget, will receive $800,000 in funding to construct a community kitchen in the community centre. The proposed kitchen would be a valuable addition to the Albion-Heatherington community. • Sidewalk and Pathway Rehabilitation Three sections of sidewalk and pathway in GloucesterSouthgate are included in a proposed project to rehabilitate existing infrastructure that has deteriorated. These sections include Hunt Club Rd. from Malak St. to Conroy Rd.; Lorry Greenberg Dr. from Sturbridge Priv. to Kimito Priv.; and the Greenboro Area Multi-Use Pathway from Albion Rd. to Lorry Greenberg Dr. This project is slated to be completed by 2018. • Traffic Control Device on Conroy Rd. at Queensdale Ave. The intersection of Conroy Rd. and Queensdale Ave. has been added to the list of warranted locations in the 2016 budget for the New Traffic Control Devices Program. If approved, a functional operation review would be undertaken to determine whether either a signal or roundabout would be constructed. This would contribute to traffic safety and control for the Conroy Rd. and Queensdale Ave. area. I strongly encourage residents in Ward 10 to attend standing committee meetings to have their say on the 2016 budget. Residents can do this by registering in advance as a public delegation at a standing committee meeting online or by calling 3-1-1.

Ottawa South News - Thursday, November 19, 2015

Almost 100 hands rose in the air in a strong show of support for measures River Road residents said would give them back the quality of life they once enjoyed before the opening of Vimy Memorial Bridge last year. Closing their road to through-traffic, prohibiting left turns from Vimy Memorial Bridge onto River Road and barring traffic from turning right onto River from Limebank Road proved to be popular ideas at the meeting. But naysayers in the crowd of almost 100 people who gathered Nov. 15 at Bernard-Grandmaître Catholic elementary school in Riverside said those changes will just push traffic onto Leitrim Road and Balmoral Drive, nor would drivers abide by the new rules. “There’s been signage up for a month,” River Road resident Susan Laham said, referring to the closure of the road in recent weeks to allow for culvert work. “Signs are telling people there’s no exit, it will be closed, do not go. “I’ve been waving on my lawn, going ‘turn around.’” And it hasn’t worked, she told the group. She is one of hundreds who have signed a petition in support of the ‘Take Back River Road’ campaign, which is seeking to drive change. Residents said the opening of the bridge has resulted in an increase in tailgating, speeding and dangerous drivers who zip around turning cars and speed by stopped school buses. Volumes have also increased according to city traffic data: 8,569 cars used to travel River Road each day before Vimy Bridge opened. That number rose to 12,490 just after the opening. The volume climbed again to 13,200 in the spring.

Noise in many of their backyards has become unbearable, impacting property values and quality of life, the residents claim. Among the ideas raised at the meeting included calling on the city to ban commercial traffic, installing roundabouts to slow down vehicles to 50 km/h, as well as establishing a lower speed limit the length of River Road, which currently changes between 60, 70 and 80 km/h. While city councillors for the area have tried different measures, such as signage encouraging drivers to use Limebank and shortening the left-turn light at the bridge, locals say these measures are not enough. Global-positioning satellite is compounding the problem, directing vehicles to River Road. “The GPS takes the commercial trucks right down River Road,” Robert Squires said, but added a first step is asking the city to ban commercial traffic there. Much of the discussion focused on the road’s designation – whether it is in fact the arterial road the city insists it is or a scenic and/or heritage route that some longtime residents say it started out as. “The primary objective should be having the road declared residential, that is, open only to local traffic,” said Hunt Club resident Al Gullen, who wanted to attend the meeting given his expertise in transportation studies. “I have just experimented by coming (south) down here on (Limebank), and I was amazed. I was here in about six minutes instead of 10 or 12 minutes,” he said. “It is the better route for the through traffic.” See PETITION, page 12

Associations launch refugee fundraiser, clothing drive Erin McCracken

erin.mccracken@metroland.com

Several south Ottawa community associations are once again joining forces – this time to do their part and help raise funds to support Syrian refugees when they do settle in Ottawa. “We’re trying to do our small part,” said John Marshall, president of the Canterbury Community Association. “I think it’s part of contributing to what Ottawa is.” Ottawans played a key role when Vietnamese refugees came to Canada in the 1970s. “It seems like we step up as a nation’s capital,” Marshall said, adding that Syrian refugees will need the support of their new neighbours once as they settle here. “It’s clear that these people are in need and in need of a safe haven,” he said. “Let’s do what we can to get them here.” The idea for the community-based joint effort emerged in recent weeks following a successful collaboration among several associations to co-host an Ottawa South federal all-candidates’ election forum in October. Canterbury volunteers reached out to its partners, including the Hunt Club Community Organization, the Alta Vista Community Association, the Faircrest Heights Community Association and the Riverview Park Community Association, and the Ottawa South Community Associations for Syrian Refugee fundraising effort was born. “We made a couple of calls, sent out a few emails and they said, ‘Yeah, we’re on board

Ottawa United for Refugees website

The Ottawa South Community Associations for Syrian Refugee fundraising effort was recently launched online as a collaboration among several associations in Canterbury, Alta Vista, Riverview Park, Faircrest Heights and Hunt Club. They are hoping residents will donate what they can to help Syrian refugees settle in the nation’s capital. with that.’ So it was very easy. More hands make easier work – isn’t that the saying?” said Marshall. Rather than directly sponsor a family, the groups are pooling their resources to promote their online campaign. “We’ve pooled our resources in terms of promotion. We’re not directly sponsoring a family ... but we are making it easier for people to sponsor through the United Way portal and Refugee 613,” Marshall said. Their efforts have already generated $75 towards their “modest” and initial goal of $1,000. The online link can be accessed through Ottawa United for Refugees – a community initiative and online fundraising campaign launched Oct. 1 through the United Way of Ottawa, in collaboration with the Community Foundation of Ottawa, City of Ottawa and Refugee 613, which was also

launched the same day to help Ottawans support refugees. The initial $1,000 goal is a first step and could be expanded. “We’re starting small,” Marshall said. “We want to get it launched now because we know (settlement efforts are) going to move really quickly. “We’re doing what we can in a very short time frame especially since the new government say they want to bring 25,000 refugees in by the end of the calendar year,” he said. “So everybody has their ears perked up at this point.” It only makes sense that south Ottawa gets involved because some of those people may end up settling in the area, which is already home to thousands of new Canadians from around globe, said Marshall. “We know that it’s a struggle sometimes when they get here and it’s a struggle some-

times to get here,” he said. “And we want to make things as easy as possible for them once we get them here.” The groups are planning to launch the campaign during a public event by the end of November. The online link to the Ot-

have

launched a winter clothing drive to help refugees of all ages prepare for the upcoming Canadian winter. Some of the families that do settle here will be large, possibly with more than a dozen relatives, Marshall noted. “And they have not experienced a Canadian winter. They’re not going to have (winter) clothing,” he added. Everything from jackets, boots and sweaters to toques, scarves, mitts and snowsuits – “anything to get them through their first winter,” Marshall said. Donated items can be dropped off over the coming weeks at the Canterbury Community Association office at the Canterbury Community Centre, located at 2185 Arch St. Items will be provided to the Snowsuit Fund of Ottawa, which is providing clothing to Ottawans in need and refugees.

Still plenty of fat in the city’s budget

t is amazing what drowning in red ink does to help focus the minds over at city hall when it comes to budgeting. When it was reported that the city was on pace to be in the red with a projected $52.5-million deficit at mid-year, preparations for next year’s budget took on a new urgency to stay true to Ottawa Mayor Jim Watson’s pledge to forever keep the annual property tax hike at two per cent or lower. So on Nov. 12 the city unveiled its draft budget for 2016, and the buzzword over at the hall was finding “efficiencies.” Apparently finding millions of dollars in these operational “efficiencies” isn’t that hard to do as, according to the city, searching for these “efficiencies” has led to more than $17-million being trimmed from the bottom line. This will involve more the $10-million in savings from city operations, with winter maintenance operations being one of the areas where belt tightening is underway. Of course, one of the reasons the city claimed it found itself heading into a large deficit position midway through this year is that last winter’s weather put a heavier than expected burden on the city’s purse. The city says don’t worry, it is all about doing things smarter, planning how to deal with winter weather better.

The ability of governments and publically-funded entities to find “efficiencies” and savings in their budgets when the numbers are headed in the wrong direction does pose an uncomfortable question. If you can find millions of dollars in “efficiencies” when slipping into the red on the balance sheet, why are these “efficiencies” not found sooner? Shouldn’t a city’s number crunchers be finding ways to squeeze operating costs at all times? If there are these “efficiencies”, does that mean the city has been operating for years with way too much fat on its budget bones? And will these “efficiencies” really impact the bottom line going forward as projected, or is it all just a shell game to make the numbers line up in a budget for next year. According to the city’s draft budget, if officially approved, the $3.1-billion draft budget does hit that magic target of an average two per cent increase (an average of $72 a year) to the property tax levy. It also pegs a 2.85 per cent increase to the transit tax levy, with OC Transpo fares also going up, and a six per cent increase hike in what residents can expect to pay on their water and wastewater bills. The sudden ability to find “efficiencies” makes a ratepayer wonder what the budget would look like if being efficient from the outset was priority No. 1.

Tolls coming to a road near you

ttawa is just beginning to emerge from a long ordeal of road-building on the Queensway. New lanes have appeared. The road is wider, smoother and – according to the experts – that’s not going to solve anything. The new lanes are going to help for a while, but they will fill up, because there are always more cars and more trucks. It is even possible that the creation of the new lanes will attract more cars and trucks. That’s by no means certain, but it’s true that all the road-widening we have done in the past decades hasn’t solved much. We have more congestion, more gridlock, more pollution and the prospect of still more to come. Naturally, experts have been pondering solutions. The latest, publicized recently, comes from a group called

CHARLES GORDON Funny Town the Ecofiscal Commission. It proposes something called congestion pricing. Tolls, in other words. The ethical principle behind congestion pricing is that those who use the roads should pay for the privilege. The practical principle is that charging for the use of roads might cause some people not to use them. Variations have been attempted with varying degrees of success around the world. Electronic road pricing, such as we see on Ontario’s

Highway 407, has been used in many countries. London, England has a congestion fee for vehicles entering central London. Some say this has cut down on traffic in the city. Some countries have applied the principle of charging more during peak hours, much as we pay for the use of electricity. If we accept the general idea, the next question is how to apply it. In cities where drivers cross bridges to enter, the solution is easy – electronic tolls on the bridges. The same goes for dedicated highways, like the 407, where electronic pricing is already in effect. But what to do about the 401 in Toronto or the 417 in Ottawa, where there are dozens of entrances and exits and people may drive for short periods? The solution being talked about involves charging tolls for

high occupancy lanes. Stop for a minute. Should the fast lane be offered up to those who can pay for it? It offends the Canadian sense of fairness. Why should those with money be able to escape the congestion while those without suffer through it? From a fairness point of view, it makes more sense to charge everyone who uses the Queensway, but there are problems with that too. It’s not as if people are driving on it for fun. In fact, a case can be made that people would gladly pay not to drive on the Queensway. And what’s the alternative? It’s not as if we had a crackerjack and inexpensive public transit system that enabled the majority of drivers to leave their cars at home. So we can imagine a situation in which Ottawans, a group not known for their extravagance, clog the secondary roads and residential streets in their desperation to avoid a toll on 417. ediTorial Managing ediTor: Theresa Fritz, 613-221-6261

A simpler, although radical solution – one that would cost a lot of money but might be worth it – would be to make public transit free. Has anybody thought of that one lately? Sure, drivers would, through their taxes, be paying for the bus, but haven’t bus riders been paying for the highways for years?

Cause of River Road house fire suspicious: police Erin McCracken

Top right: Police arson and fire investigators walk the property the morning after the NCC-owned home at the site was ravaged by fire. Police now consider the cause of the fire suspicious. er someone who used to live there may be responsible. “I guess they had some issues with people who resided there back several years ago,” said Christie, referring to a marijuana grow operation that was discovered in 2013. According to the Ottawa Police Service website, investigators seized 111 marijuana plants from the property that year and arrested two people and laid four charges. “Could those people have come back and set the place on fire just out of spite – I don’t know,” he said. “But if not them, well then who would have a motive to do it. Just a random arsonist who enjoys setting fires?” The remoteness of the residence also may play a factor in whether it was deliberately torched, he added. “Obviously, if you’re an arsonist and roving around looking for a place to set on fire, that’s a pretty good one,” Christie said. “No one’s going to notice. It’s not close to any houses so you’re not going to endanger anybody.” While at the scene, investigators they took away fire debris, such as flooring samples – “whatever looks like it may have a pattern on it.” Other factors are being considered in the investigation, such as the rental home wasn’t inhabited at the time the fire broke out. “That isn’t always an issue, but in a place like that it certainly helps eliminate some main causes of

fires,” such as the electrical system, stove, furnace, washer and dryer, use of candles, as well as cigarettes, Christie said. The NCC cited the ongoing police investigation in declining to

reveal how long the residence had been vacant, how long it has owned the property, the extent of the renovations being done and whether the property was going to be rented again to tenants.

However, Cédric Pelletier, NCC communications officer for real estate and asset management, said the renovations had recently begun and the property was used for “residential tenancy.”

A fire that ravaged a River Road rental home owned by the National Capital Commission that once housed a marijuana grow op may have been deliberately set. “Based on the investigation at the scene, the fire is considered suspicious and further investigation and confirmation of exhibits and samples will help determine that,” said Sgt. David Christie of the Ottawa police arson unit. The house at 379 River Rd., north of Leitrim Road, was gutted by fire the evening of Nov. 10, causing an estimated $250,000 in damages, according to fire officials. The flames and smoke were so intense they could be seen from Prince of Wales Drive, across the Rideau River. Twenty 911 calls reported the emergency around 10:30 p.m. A working fire was declared while firefighters were en route and crews immediately began a defensive attack when they arrived at the secluded property, surrounded on three sides by trees. Multiple water tankers had to be brought in since there is no water access in that area. No injuries were reported and officials said the property had been vacant, which was confirmed by NCC officials. It had been undergoing recent renovations so that it could be rented out again to tenants, Christie confirmed, but added he doesn’t believe the work being done at the site caused the fire. The morning after the property caught fire, Christie joined an Ottawa fire investigator at the scene to go over the charred remains of the gutted structure to look for specific burn pattern and other evidence. However, they were hampered in their efforts by the extent of the damage. “Due to the damage we had limited access into the building. The floors were not stable and the chimney was an issue,” Christie said. The basement also couldn’t be accessed, though he said he “was satisfied that the basement wasn’t an area of origin anyways.” Christie declined to reveal his theory about the fire’s origin and how it may have started. “I think we determined that there may have been some areas, and this is all speculation anyways,” he said, adding that it will be another month before lab results come back from the Centre for Forensic Sciences in Toronto. Other factors will be considered in the investigation, such as wheth-

Police investigate after dispatch HQ ‘stormed’ by demonstrators Erin McCracken

erin.mccracken@metroland.com

Ottawa police are investigating after demonstrators “stormed” the taxi dispatch headquarters of Coventry Connections at the start of a day of action on Nov. 13 by union members and airport taxi drivers amid an ongoing labour dispute. Wires pulled out of computers and telephones, heated words exchanged, people pushed and injured – this was the alleged scene inside the company’s Overbrook-based offices after about 20 drivers and union members “… stormed our call centre (and) started pushing people out the door in a rather harsh manner,” said Marc-André Way, Coventry’s vice-president and chief operating officer. “They covered all the windows in the call centre so no one could see what was going on. “They blocked access, broke one of the doors, covered up our security camera system and started ripping wires out of the wall,” he said.

“The reason I know this is they missed one of the cameras, so we were able to see what they were doing.” Ottawa police have confirmed they are investigating reports of vandalism and injured staffers stemming from the incident. Officers were called to the address just before 8 a.m. and demonstrators left the building when told. The damaged wiring disabled communications to about 1,500 cab drivers as far away as Niagara Falls and St. Catherines for about three hours, Way said. Harry Ghadban, Unifor’s eastern Ontario director, said the intention was for members to go into the building and ask staff to leave “peacefully.” “And we wanted to turn off their dispatch system,” he said. “We have to affect Coventry Connections operations in that they’ve prevented our 250 members from earning any income while their income (as Coventry staffers) is guaranteed.” A union member from Brantford, Ont. who went into the building said the “sit-in”

quickly went south. “Some of (the Coventry staff) wanted to fight. They were pushing, and pushing our women down,” he said outside Coventry, where hundreds of union members, bused in from as far away as Montreal, Sudbury, Sarnia, London, Toronto and Windsor, joined the cabbies to advocate for “a fair deal.” When asked about reports of vandalism and injured staff, Ghadban said, “Certainly, I would not think our people would do anything like that.” He hoped the demonstration and large show of support would help their cause. “I’m proud of our union and the amount of people we were able to bring out to support these locked-out workers,” he said against a backdrop of members chanting and beating drums. At the heart of the labour dispute is the airport drivers’ refusal to pay a $5-per-airport passenger pick-up fee that came into effect Aug. 11, as part of a new contract between Coventry and the Ottawa International Airport Authority.

Roland Kiehne, Toronto-based Unifor director of member mobilization, chants into a megaphone in front of hundreds of taxi drivers and Unifor union members outside taxi dispatch company Coventry Connections in Overbrook on Nov. 13. The drivers are also upset over losing their exclusive right to pick up fares at the airport. With microphone in hand, Unifor national president Jerry Dias told the crowd the union is calling on the new federal Min-

ister of Transport Marc Garneau to establish regulations that prevent airport authorities from making “unilateral changes that negatively impact people’s lives.” While Dias issued an apol-

ogy to Ottawa residents who have been disrupted by the labour dispute, he asked residents to put themselves in the position of drivers who make little more than minimum wage after their bills are paid.

Union calls on feds to stop ‘unilateral changes’ by airport authorities

2016 Draft Budget Tabled On November 12th, City Council tabled the draft budget for 2016. The draft budget proposes to continue record investments in active transportation, affordable housing and economic development. As City Council directed in October, the draft budget also caps the residential property tax change at 2 per cent and provides reasonable cost-saving measures that do not affect front-line services. Some highlights that effect our community directly include funding for land set aside for 2017 intended for the Riverside South Recreation Complex, future funding for additional traffic calming measures and infrastructural investments like the resurfacing of River Road from Mitch Owens Road to Leitrim Road and Rideau Glen Drive from Prince of Wales Drive to Holborn Avenue. Residents can provide their input via email at budget2016@ottawa.ca, on Twitter using the #ottbudget hashtag or directly to my office. The budget will go to City Council for consideration on Wednesday, December 9th.

Residents are encouraged to bring new toys to the breakfast as donations to Toy Mountain. The donated toys will then go to children in need during this holiday season. The Findlay Creek Community Association will be hosting their Breakfast with Santa on December 6th from 8:30 to 11:00 am at the Fred Barrett Arena. Tickets will be available for pick up at the Scotiabank in the Findlay Creek Plaza on Saturday, November 21st from 11 am to 1 pm, Thursday, November 26th from 4 to 6 pm and Saturday, November 28th from 11 am to 1 pm. Tickets are first come first served during two sittings at 8 to 9 am and 9:30 to 10:30 am. Tickets are free for community association members and $5 for non-members.

He said those same drivers who own their costly taxi plates are now being told that, with the new contract, the worth of those plates has been reduced due to the end of the exclusive airport pick-ups. “We can’t have a situation where workers are being treated like this. These are families that are being economically wiped out,” Dias said. His comments come the day after the two sides returned to the bargaining table. At the same time as the meeting, the cabbies engaged in a slow-moving protest on Bronson at Sunnyside near Carleton University, starting around 3:30 p.m. Unifor provided a proposal, one that Coventry said it wasn’t happy with and countered with another offer, which the union planned to review. Both parties planned to meet the following morning on Nov. 13. However, Way said he did not attend because he refused to leave Coventry staff in the aftermath of the trespassing incident and with so many out-of-towners camped out on the property. He said the protest was poorly timed since negotiations were showing some movement. “It’s a give and take process. There’s certain things that we probably would have had

to give up and there’s probably things they would have had to give up,” said Way. “And there’s a way to get to a middle ground. Doing this is not going to do it.” While he declined to reveal the possible concessions, he said the company’s proposal included giving Capital, Blueline and airport drivers equal opportunity to pick up at the airport – which is already included in the latest contract. The difference now, he said, is that Coventry is willing to absorb the airport drivers into the other fleets, such as Blueline and Capital, which would effectively end the dedicated airport fleet, as it is called. “We were looking to create an atmosphere in a fair and equitable fashion,” Way said, adding there is no going back to the former way of doing business with the prevalence of Uber. If the taxi industry wants to strengthen its position, drivers have to get on board. The consolidation would also better serve airport customers, who have experienced long waits for taxis during busy times, such as on weekends, and ensure drivers can pick up and drop off passengers anywhere in the city, rather than dedicating themselves to one set location. “That’s how you win the game. The only way to do that is to have a very fluid system,”

said Way, who is also president of the Canadian Taxi Association and a director with the international Taxi, Limousine and Paratransit Association. “There’s no reason why our industry needs to stay in the Stone Age. There’s competition around us now. Let’s pull up our socks and work towards a common goal, which is serving the public and servicing Ottawa properly.” While Dias called the passenger fare hike for the cabbies “a cash grab,” Way disagreed. “What the airport is looking for and is asking is fair market value,” he said, noting there are similar fees at major Canadian airports and around the world. The fee increase would help the airport offset the cost of snow removal, curbside services like a rest-stop kiosk for drivers and security and camera systems, said Way. Despite what he said were “intimidation tactics,” the vice-president said there is still an opportunity for the two sides to renew talks, resolve issues and get the airport cabbies working again. “There’s always room for negotiations. I never shut the door.” And, in fact, negotiations resumed within days and were still underway at press time. Coventry officials declined to be interviewed due to the ongoing bargaining process.

“I think everybody in this room would agree with you,” said Squires, drawing a round of supportive applause. Parkway, heritage, scenic, residential – residents floated several designations they said should be attached to their two-lane roadway. The problem, said Squires, one of four residents leading the campaign, is the group has been unsuccessful in finding documents that point to the road’s official label. “We are looking to get to the bottom of that,” he said. Joe Westway, who is among those leading the campaign, said he has a map dating back to 2010 that shows River Road as a ‘scenic’ route, but today the road is considered an arterial route. “So they don’t care who lives there ... and that’s what we’re stuck with,” Westway said, clearly frustrated. Meetings held earlier this year on the same topic have not given residents much hope that the city is considering any of the suggestions that have already been pitched.

“What really came out of (a Honey Gables meeting in January) was there is no human factor in anything, so it’s ‘put it here and force people to take it,’” said one woman. A large part of the discussion focused on the rationale behind the creation of two left-hand turn lanes from the bridge onto River Road, which residents complain funnels traffic their way. “There are two imperatives driving the city’s decisions on this matter – one, keep the traffic moving,” said Squires. “The other imperative ... is that the number of affected drivers matters.” One man topped this, suggesting that while votes do a lot of the talking, so does threatening legal action. One woman, who explained tailgaters are a danger to residents trying to turn off River Road into Honey Gables, said it boils down to safety. “It’s an accident waiting to happen,” she said. “And in fact it has happened,” said Squires. Campaign organizers are planning to submit their petition to the city and local councillors by the end of November.

Family thankful for support after pet seriously injured in hit-and-run Erin McCracken

The kindness of strangers, family and friends is helping Daisy, a King Shepherd dog, get back on her paws after she was seriously injured in what her Leitrim family believe was a hitand-run. The five-year-old pooch is now recovering from surgery that saved her hind leg from amputation and fixed several other serious injuries, including internal damage. Now the healing process, which will take another five or six months, has begun, while the veterinary bills continue to mount. “You know when they say it rains, it pours? That was an understatement that day, believe me,” Daisy’s owner, James Hogan, said. He and his wife, Jessica, had been at CHEO with their three-year-old son, Lincoln, when they received the devastating news about their dog in a telephone call from their friend, Matt Haig, on Nov. 2 around 7 p.m. Haig had been caring for the couple’s two older children, Patience, 6, and Damian, 11, at the family’s Leitrim Road home, situated between Bank Street and Albion Road. “He says, ‘Your dog is bleeding out,’” Hogan recalled. It’s believed Daisy and the family’s four-year-old short-haired cat got out of the backyard and onto the road, where Hogan said drivers regularly speed by at 100 km/h, well over the 80 km/h limit. Hogan suspects when the cat got out, Daisy followed, since the dog always

enjoyed playing with the feline. The cat was also struck and killed in the same incident. The family’s pug, Willow, remained in the backyard. “We still don’t know how the gate got open,” Hogan said. “The cat can actually squeeze through the fence, but as far as the dog getting out, we still do not know at this point and time. We always keep our gate closed.” Hogan said the driver who struck his pets likely knew what happened since Daisy is a big dog, and there is lighting in the area and “you have lights on your vehicle – you can surely see what you hit.” When he rushed home that night, he saw Haig covered in blood. “He looked like he’d been dipped in red paint,” Hogan recalled. They got the bleeding dog into a car and Hogan took her to the Alta Vista Animal Hospital. An assessment revealed Daisy’s left hind hip and leg were dislocated and broken, while there was an open wound on her right hind hip. Her spleen was also injured, there was road rash on her front paws and a mark under her chin, which he believes she suffered after she struck the pavement from the force of the impact. She also had an air pocket between her lung and rib cage that eventually worked itself out. Due to mounting medical bills, which had climbed to $2,300, he decided to switch to a Montreal veterinary centre the night of Nov. 5. Daisy was assessed and the medical team felt it could save her more seriously injured leg. But it was going to come with a steep

price tag and Hogan brought Daisy home to care for his pet as best he could while trying to raise the funds to pay for surgery. For days, he knocked on doors and put up almost 1,000 flyers, and his wife created an online GoFundMe campaign that has since generated more than $3,000 towards a $5,000 goal. The vet bills have been overwhelming, said Hogan, who lays asphalt in the summer months and does snow-removal in the winter. But also overwhelming has been the support of friends, family and strangers, who have donated what they can to help the Hogans and their beloved canine. “I’m not the one to be asking people for help for this kind of thing,” Hogan said. Friends have also started collecting refundable bottles to support their cause. “There’s been some help that’s been amazing,” he said. Dog walkers also rallied to hold an impromptu bake sale at Conroy Pit in south Ottawa on Nov. 14 and 15. Their efforts generated more than $700. Hogan said he never considered reporting the hit-and-run to police, not thinking it was an incident they could readily solve. Through the experience, Hogan said he has learned not only about the kindness of strangers, but also another important lesson for the future. “I know one thing, I’ll have pet insurance after this,” he said. The family’s online fundraising link is available at gofundme.com/wn89y3tb.

This past week, Massoud and Carlini were invited by Residency Recruitment Officer Frank Ciaccia to join their Academy for a weeklong evaluation. The invitation was extended after the most recent Vancouver Whitecaps ID event held at the end of September in Ottawa, by OSU Force Academy. During this event, over one hundred and twenty (120) players from across Ottawa had the opportunity to impress Ciaccia who were all hoping to earn an invitation to the Whitecaps Academy program. This caps off an impressive season for both boys, with Carlini leading his 2001 OPDL team to the Eastern Conference Championship and Massoud leading the 2000 Boys to The Ontario Cup championship, scoring a hattrick in the final along the way. Their success follows in the footsteps of former Force Academy players within the professional academy system in Canada, beginning with Abdou Samake (Montreal Impact), Vana Markarian (Whitecaps), Dario Conte (Whitecaps), Zoom Langwa (Whitecaps) and most recently Luka Vujicic (Montreal Impact). The Whitecaps FC Residency is a unique program unlike any other in North America. It is a full-time, fully funded, player development program designed to maximize a player’s potential on and off the field, linking technical and personal development. The full-time Residency program is comprised of approximately 80 of the top players from across Canada. Players can enter the Whitecaps FC club system as early as age 12. The Residency provides elite athletes with an appropriate learning environment to develop mental and physical skills that will ultimately help them attain a successful professional and national team career. “ We are very proud of these boys, along with many others from our club who are being identified, monitored and tracked by the national program and the MLS professional academies. Our close working relationship with The Vancouver Whitecaps, Toronto F.C. and Montreal Impact will continue to provide motivation for our Academy players to progress into these environments,” stated Club Technical Director, Paul Harris.

Observations from the parenting trenches

t was a difficult week. Temper tantrums, kids failing to get up in the morning, some serious attitude. I call it “mid-November.” Surprisingly, I took it all in stride, which I chalk up to my new no-alcohol, excessive cardio, green-tea-sipping routine. In fact, this mom only had one – or maybe two – temper tantrums this week in response to the adversity of the kids, which I think is a new record. As one child started throwing paper and pencils across the room one evening in frustration over homework, I just sipped my green tea and stared blankly at him. It unnerved him; I could tell. He tried a new tactic – banging on the counter. I just sipped and stared, thinking about my gym workout that morning and wondering if a glass of wine would help or hinder the situation. I clicked the kettle on for the next dose of green tea instead. Three weeks without any booze in my life – not even that one glass to relax me after the kids go to bed – and everything seems to be coming into crystal clear focus. Kids can be real jerks sometimes – that is, in fact, their jobs. Kids are supposed to challenge and frustrate and test all limits. Okay, so I’m stating the obvious

Letters Support affordable housing for families I am writing to support the residents of Herongate, who recently received eviction notices from their rental units. The termination date is February 29, 2016, a difficult time to move due to weather conditions and in the middle of a school year. The units themselves are not perfect. A decade of neglect by a series of inattentive landlords has taken its toll on their houses. The Herongate units have a past history of being a good place for low income families to raise children: they were close to schools, bus routes, parks and shopping, without downtown prices or social problems. The residents chose rental housing because they liked their neighbourhood and it was affordable. It’s time the city of Ottawa took affordable housing seriously. Our neighbours need homes that are large enough for their families, in safe neighbourhoods. Do we really need more expensive condos or big box shopping? It’s time for the city to take a good look at how their citizens are being treated, and to protect access to safe and affordable housing. Elizabeth Bryce, Ottawa

BRYNNA LESLIE Capital Muse here, but without the fog of overwork and alcohol, and with the cleansing that has come from sweating and sipping, I think I finally, after almost eleven years, get my role as mom. My role is to put up with the crap to a point, and sometimes to point out when they’re acting like jerks. But mostly, it’s to love them in a calm and rational manner. Rational isn’t my strong point, but I think I’m getting there. If that all sounds sappy, I don’t mean it to. Of course mothers love their children, and sometimes we have more time to express that love than others. And of course, it’s not the first time I’ve decided to love my children overtly. But as I watch them go through the small and tedious trials of their days, I see more clearly how the world can be difficult for their little selves to navigate. I see more

clearly that my job is to give them a compass, teach them how to use it – and once in a while step in if a hostile ship gets in their way. On the latter point, that doesn’t mean I fight their battles for them, but it may mean stepping up more at certain points in their lives than others. And sometimes, sadly, my job is to step back a bit and watch them fail – but to be there with open arms and non-judgement when they do. I wonder, if I’d known a dozen years ago the sheer enormity of my job as mother, if I would have put in the application. I may not have had the confidence in my resume to pursue the occupation. But three kids and 11 years in, I think we’re doing okay. And as time goes forward, and the kids become ever unique from one another, I am challenged to respond to their varying needs. Mostly, however, I find if they’re fed, given opportunities to be creative and active, and get enough sleep things seem to move steadily forward, without too much turmoil. It turns out, to be the best mom I can be, I need the same things.

Fire displaces two in Heatherington Erin McCracken

Two adults were forced from their Heatherington home after fire broke out on Nov. 17. Flames licking inside the front window of a rowhouse unit, located at 25-1485 Heatherington Rd., prompted multiple calls to emergency responders at 11:18 a.m. “Upon arrival, crews declared a working fire with heavy smoke visible from the front door,” communications staff said in a media advisory.

“Fire crews have conducted a primary and secondary search of the structure and there are no injuries to report.” Victim services were called to the scene to assist the adults who were displaced from their home. Ottawa police, paramedics, Enbridge Gas and Ottawa Hydro were also called to the Heatherington address. The cause of the fire is still under investigation. Damages to contents and the structure were initially pegged at about $50,000.

The city’s transit commission directed OC Transpo staff to have another look at a plan to cut the first and last trips of under-used bus routes as part of the 2016 budget process on Nov. 12.

First and last trips of under-used bus routes may face axe Jennifer McIntosh

jennifer.mcintosh@metroland.com

Facing an $11-million deficit, OC Transpo administration proposed cutting the first and last trips to dozens of underused bus routes. While the cuts would save $500,000, three transit commissioners have asked staff to have another look at the situation. “Sometimes we are really good at looking at the numbers, but not so much with the personal element,” said Knoxdale-Merivale Coun. Keith Egli. “It may only be two or three people, but those people don’t have any other option.” The routes include ones such as the 122, which goes from Millennium to Place d’Orléans and has a last trip at 11:48 p.m. and the last 172 from Lincoln Fields at 12:09 a.m. Those routes have two and seven riders respectively. “I am seeing a lot of these

trips to place like Bayshore and Place d’Orléans, which probably means the riders are going to work,” Egli said. Alta Vista Coun. Jean Cloutier asked OC Transpo general manager John Manconi if there was a way to cut the second trip instead. “I was one of the people who would have been on an earlier bus if it was available. I think the people on these routes are probably going or coming from shift work,” he said. Marconi said administration does consider the personal impact of the decision and staff would have another look at specific routes if commissioners had more detailed information about the ridership from their residents. Committee member Blair Crew suggested a compromise, where staff would split the difference between the first and second trip. Staff is also proposing a 2.5 per cent fare increase. The

move would garner $2.2 million in revenue, based on ridership numbers that include 97 million customer trips on conventional trips and 800,000 trips on Para Transpo. Manconi said the rate increase could vary depending on rider method of payment – Presto, tickets or cash. Rideau-Rockliffe Coun. Tobi Nussbaum expressed concern over not being able to tell residents what the actual cost of the increased rate would be. Several committee members also expressed concern that ridership would go down because of higher fares. Manager of transit planning, Pat Scrimgeour, said studies show that riders consider a number of factors when choosing transit such as: cost of car ownership, the cost of fuel and insurance. “If everything else is equal – and it never is – a fare increase of one per cent affects ridership between 0.2 and 0.4 per cent. “

Residents grieve, show support for France at French Embassy Local imam leaves letter rejecting misuse of Islam, offers condolences Adam Kveton

adam.kveton@metroland.com

Dozens of Ottawa residents gathered at the fence of the French Embassy on Nov. 14, sharing their grief, sadness and support for France after gun and bomb attacks in Paris left more than 100 dead on Nov. 13. Flowers, candles and messages were laid on the southeast corner of the embassy where several dozen people gathered. As the evening grew dark, many more people gathered at the park just south of the embassy to hold a candlelight vigil. Gathering near the embassy seemed like the natural thing to do, said one attendee. It’s the closest he could get to France. That was true not just for Ottawa residents, but for Pauline Senderain and Timothée Picard as well – a couple from France spending a year in Canada. “It’s hard to be far away from our friends,” said Senderain after plac-

ing a candle by the embassy amongst bouquets of flowers. “We think a lot about our family, our friends and all the people who are victims of this attack,” she said. Despite having many friends in Paris, Picard said they are all safe. MUSLIM MESSAGE

Kanata imam Sikander Hashmi attended the vigil as well, bearing a letter written in French and English, and addressed to the people of France from Canadian Muslims. The letter offers condolences for “the senseless loss of life and the pain and suffering (the French people) are currently experiencing.” The letter goes on to state Canadian Muslims’ stance against the attacks, and the use of Islam to justify them. “We unequivocally reject any attempts to justify such terrible acts through the teachings of our faith,” Adam Kveton/Metroland it reads. Messages such as this one were placed among the flowers and candles outside the French Embassy in OtSince the attacks, it has been re- tawa where dozens of people gathered on Nov. 14 in reaction to the Nov. 13 terror attacks in Paris.

Holiday Fun for Everyone

The Mayor’s Christmas Celebration Saturday, December 5 2 - 6 p.m. Ottawa City Hall Submitted

From aprons to knitted items, the estimated 2,000 shoppers who converged on the Canterbury Community Association’s annual Christmas craft sale had a wide selection to choose from at the Canterbury Community Centre on Nov. 15.

Join Mayor Jim Watson in a wonderful winter setting, with activities both indoors and out.

Canterbury welcomes eager shoppers at annual craft sale

They came. They saw. They shopped. “It went really well. Probably a couple thousand people at least came through the doors,” said John Marshall, president of the Canterbury Community Association, which hosted its annual Christmas craft sale on Nov. 15. It’s one of the largest community events put on by the association each year. This year, 90 vendor tables filled every nook and cranny of the Canterbury Community Centre, including in the hallways and lobby. “That’s why we have vendors lined up at the door to the community centre at 7 a.m. (for table registration day),” said Marshall. Advance registration – which sells out within a matter of hours every autumn – didn’t even begin until 9 a.m. “It has a good reputation,” Marshall said of the event, which has been held annually for at least the past 20 years. “They do well at our sale. So they want to get a prime spot.” One vendor looking to secure a table showed up on registration day at 6:30 a.m. Most return year after year in anticipation of selling their plethora of wares in a place where shoppers are plentiful. To better streamline the advance table registration process for vendors, Marshall said organizers are considering allowing returning vendors to register online instead of in person in the future. “We’re going to do the same for our garage sale in the spring, I think,” he added. “It’s a real pain for some of these people because some of them are older and standing up waiting for that long is not comfortable for some of them.” The day of registration in November saw a long line of vendor-hopefuls snake back and forth down the main hall inside of the centre. “They’re just waiting to pounce and they’re all crowded. You should see it,” said Marshall.

“It’s just nuts.” While the majority of those waiting to register were successful, he said about six or seven – all of them newcomers to the sale – were added to a waiting list. The day of the sale saw a steady stream of shoppers browsing for deals and unique finds – everything from tea cozies to pickled eggs.

“You want those knitted slippers in festive colours? You can get those, you can get everything you want.” John Marshall, president, Cantebury Community Association

“You want those knitted slippers in festive colours? You can get those, you can get everything you want,” Marshall said. He spent his money on baked goods, such as a small apple cake with rum glaze, iced cake lollipops and holiday cookies – something he looks forward to purchasing at the sale each year. “For me, it’s the food,” said Marshall. Part of the draw for shoppers was the hot coffee and tasty food sold at the canteen by the local scouts and venturers. The group generated $500. The event is also an ideal way to attract and engage local residents who have recently moved to the area, such as new Canadians. “Because it’s quite an experience for them and it’s more of the bazaar-type of shopping that might be more prevalent in their culture,” said Marshall, adding this allows more people to find out about the programs and services available at the city-owned centre.

‘You lived for the day – you didn’t wait for tomorrow’ Remembrance Day time of reflection for husband and wife war vets Erin McCracken

erin.mccracken@metroland.com

It’s best not to call George Fouchard a hero. “I don’t know about that,” said the 93-year-old Second World War veteran. His many military service medals attached to his navy blue blazer tell a different story. “He’s very modest,” said Fouchard’s son, Jim, a Riverside South resident. The war brought together Fouchard and his English bride of 72 years, Betty, and seven decades after the war ended, the couple spent Remembrance Day together in quiet reflection at the Maplewood Retirement Community on Industrial Avenue in Riverview Park. Accompanied by his stepgrandson Cpl. Tyler Kokotailo, from CFB Petawawa, Fouchard laid the only wreath during the Nov. 11 service at the residence, where seniors and 11 other Second World War veterans gathered to pay their respects. Just the night before,

Erin McCracken/Metroland

Betty, 94, and George Fouchard, 93, reminisce following a Remembrance Day service at the Maplewood Retirement Community in Riverview Park on Nov. 11. George and Betty are both veterans of the Second World War. Fouchard was one of 19 Canadian veterans of the Second World War who were awarded the Knight of the French Legion of Honour medal during a ceremony at France’s embassy in Ottawa. The medal honours those who helped liberate France during the war. “It’s nice of the people of France to realize what they did to liberate France,” Fouchard’s son said, marvelling at the sacrifices his father made for the war effort.

“It’s hard to imagine they could do that – be gone from their family for five years.” Still, for Fouchard, Remembrance Day does not get any easier. Time does not heal all wounds. Memories of his five years spent overseas during the war percolate to the surface – his mind stretching back through the decades to friends and fellow soldiers who never made it home from the battles. “So many names. We lost a lot of people,” he said, his

voice trailing off as he blinked back tears. Fouchard, one of nine children who grew up in Old Ottawa South, was just 18 when he enlisted in the Cameron Highlanders of Ottawa. He and his older brother, Tom, who joined the same unit, followed in the footsteps of their father, Tom Sr., an army military police officer. “It was the ‘in’ thing to do,” Fouchard chuckled. “We thought it was going to be fun.”

Fouchard was first sent to Iceland in 1940 to help prevent that nation from falling to the Germans before he was recruited into an engineer unit and trained as a cartographer in Wales before he was sent to the south of England. “I came out of there just in time to do all the D-Day maps,” he said, recalling weeks of round-the-clock top-secret efforts to map out travel routes from the coast of France into Cannes. “You couldn’t even go to the bathroom without a guard.” It was in England where he met Betty, now 94. Fouchard was walking by a pub one night with two friends when Betty and her two girlfriends came outside, headed for a Saturday night dance. Each of their friends decided on a whim to go dancing together, and Fouchard and Betty tagged along – despite Fouchard’s insistence that dancing wasn’t his strong suit. Betty, originally from Staines, near Heathrow, was 21 when she was conscripted into the British military. “They were getting desperate with a shortage of men,” she said. Betty chose the air force and was assigned to Beacon Hill, England, where she worked in a Fighter Command operations room, plotting the co-ordinates, height

and speed of incoming German aircraft so Royal Air Force fighters could head them off. She and George married in July, 1943.

“As soon as daylight came, in we went. Drove right up on shore, dropped the front (of the barge). We didn’t even get our feet wet.” George Fouchard, Second World War veteran

“We got married because D-Day, we knew, was coming, didn’t we?” she said, turning to George, who nodded. “I guess people felt you lived for the day – you didn’t wait for tomorrow. You had a whole different outlook on life.” Fouchard was tapped to go to France around the time of the Normandy landings on D-Day in June, 1944. It was his job as a cartographer to travel on the heels of advancing troops, showing them the way, or, at least, where not to go. See VET, page 31

Mary’s ‘Pride of the Valley’ was on show for all her classmates

or once I was grateful for the fleece lined navy blue bloomers that I had to wear as soon as the cold fall days rolled around. Usually, I hated them with a passion. I used to think I was the only one at the Northcote School who had to wear them. But I learned that all of the girls in the junior grades, with the exception of bad Marguirite of course, put them on when winter was about to set in. Nonetheless that year, I was more than grateful for the bloomers that came once a year from Eaton’s catalogue, replacing the ones that would end up in the rag bag, and

on a flour bag in her life! Once we got the bags home, the job of getting them ready to be made into underpants, tea towels, aprons or whatever else Mother found the need for, was no easy task. Mary Cook’s Memories They had to have their seams opened, then washed were piled in stacks along eventually become part of at least twice to get rid of one wall, and beside each pile whatever flour was still holdthe endless braided rugs that there was a price written in covered our floors in the ing on, and then they got the chalk on the floor. wintertime.

the white side that became bloomers, tea towels and pillow slips. The printed side was used whenever there was a need for a clean rag for any number of chores around the house. And so, to my horror, my new bloomers, the printing held fast in spite of several washings and soaking in Javel water. In those days, it wasn’t unusual to have your backside soaked to the skin from sliding down snow piles, or covered in mud, or just damp to the touch from the intense blast of the old stove in the middle of the room that pounded out a heat like you wouldn’t believe. There was no way I was going to shed those navy blue

fleece lined bloomers and expose my newly made flour -bag underwear with the vivid printing as plain as the nose on your face. And it didn’t matter how often those underpants were washed, the dye held fast. And I didn’t have too many other pairs to fall back on either. There was no doubt about it, the dye was there to stay. I was sure I was the only one at the Northcote School with Pride of the Valley written across her seat. Interested in an electronic version of Mary’s books?

Ottawa Mayor Jim Watson proposed the civic award in 2012 to recognize Ottawans for their contribution to the community. “I envisioned a prestigious civic award to honour exceptional people,” Watson said at this year’s gala on Nov. 10. Recipients are selected by a committee and are nominated by fellow residents for their professional accomplishments to life in the city in arts and culture, business, community service, education, public service, labour, communications and media, science, health and medicine, sports and entertainment and other fields that benefit the city. Paul Meek, president of Kichesippi Beer Co., said he is extremely humbled to have received the honour. “You just go about doing

your business, not expecting any recognition, so this feels awesome,” he said. Meek, who has lived in Stittsville for 13 years, founded Kichesippi five years ago. He said he wanted to preserve Ottawa’s heritage. He uses locally sourced ingredients and does the brewing in Ottawa. Meek also donates 50 cents from the sale of every growler – a 1.8 litre jug of beer – to diabetes research in honour of his son, Alex. Ewart Walters, who’s known for his passion for equality and justice, was nominated for his work with the Spectrum, Ottawa’s Black community monthly paper. He served as an editor and publisher for 29 years. Walters, a resident of Knoxdale-Merivale Ward, said he would be happy to help someone re-establish the Spectrum if they were interested. “I have had people tell me that they miss getting it,” he said. “It’s gratifying when people notice your work. You don’t do it to get noticed, you do it because

you have a passion, but it’s great to be honoured in this way.” Ben Babelowsky, a Kanata artist who has volunteered with the city’s Young at Art competition for 20 years, said he was honoured to be in the company of so many people who have done great things. Babelowsky’s work, which includes rural and urban scenery of Eastern Canada, the United Stats and the Maritimes, was on display at City Hall, outside council chambers. “I like to foster an appreciation in art among young people, I think it’s important. I was young once,” Babelowsky said. The 2015 Order of Ottawa named 15 people, including Dasa Lelli, founder of Kanata Rhythmic Sportive Gymnastics Club, who received the Brian Kilrea Award for excellence in coaching. 2015 Order of Ottawa recipients:

will have the best equipment. CT scans are the backbone of Medical Imaging. They give radiologists the critical information needed to diagnose and save lives. CHEO needs a new CT scanner that will transform CHEO’s ability to improve technique and decrease scan time. Pictures of your child’s brain or body can be obtained much faster! These pictures are very accurate and detailed and they allow radiologists to detect small and important changes or concerns.

It will have a tremendous impact on patient care. From babies to teenagers, patients who need these exams must be exposed to radiation in order to ﬁnd a diagnosis. With the new technologies available, new scanners emit lower radiation doses signiﬁcantly and are much faster. This means a patient spends less time on the CT table! It can mean a reduced need for anesthesia as well.

PLEASE HELP US PURCHASE THIS REVOLUTIONARY PIECE OF TECHNOLOGY TO HELP CHEO’S PATIENTS, JUST LIKE VIENNA. Have a profound impact on the life of a child!

Ottawa launches the Healthy Kids Challenge Jennifer McIntosh

jennifer.mcintosh@metroland.com

Thanks to a grant from the province the city will be investing more than $1 million in community-based programs to make Ottawa’s kids healthier. Ottawa is one of the 45 communities to receive money from the Healthy Kids Community Challenge fund – which will hand out $33.5 million to 45 communities across the province over the next three years. John Fraser, MPP for Ottawa South, announced the funds from the ministry of health and long-term care at the Alexander Community Centre on Nov. 13. The challenge promotes healthy eating, physical activity and healthy lifestyle choices for children. It’s part of the province’s Patients First: Action Plan for Health Care, which aims to improve the delivery of healthcare services. Healthy Kids is a whole-child plan that helps parents learn what to do before pregnancy and during the early years. It also helps parents with healthy food choices and aims to build healthy communities for kids to grow up and play in. “The Healthy Kids Community

Challenge is mobilizing the communities, families, schools, local businesses, health, recreation and other organizations in our community to help our young people lead healthier lives. You can see that action right here in Ottawa. It is so important communities take an active role in promoting healthy lifestyles, because our children’s future health and success is a shared responsibility,” Fraser said in a press release. The city will coordinate with the department of parks, recreation and cultural services, Ottawa Public health, community health and resource centres, research organizations, community, sport and recreation associations, local child and youth communitybased service providers and networks and local school boards to develop its plans to use the $1.125-million grant. “Adopting a healthy lifestyle needs to start at a young age,” said Mayor Jim Watson. “The City of Ottawa is excited to be part of the Healthy Kids Community Challenge, which will invest in community-based programs and resources that will have a positive and Submitted long-term impact on the health and Mayor Jim Watson and councillors Shad Qadri, Diane Deans, Mathieu Fleury and Riley Brockington join Ottawell-being of our children and their wa-area MPPs John Fraser and Yasir Naqvi to announce more than $1 million in funding for the healthy kids families,” Watson said. community challenge at the Alexander Community Centre on Nov. 13.

Fouchard can still remember waiting in a barge in the English Channel ahead of a second-wave invasion into France about 10 days after D-Day. “The next morning, when you could see, there were 1,000 barges, at least, there all around us,” he said. “As soon as daylight came, in we went. Drove right up on shore, dropped the front (of the barge). We didn’t even get our feet wet.” They hopped in trucks and “drove like hell” for Cannes, where the unit set up their generator and printing press – the map-making tools of their trade. They made maps on the fly, based on intelligence relayed from scouts, aerial photos and infantry reports on what lay ahead – bridges, terrain, enemy positions. Their precise maps helped the troops that Fouchard’s unit was tailing into occupied territory. “The artillery could use it so they could shoot,” said Fouchard. “The air force could use it for saturation bombing. But that all backfired on us. They dropped it on us instead of the enemy.” The friendly fire bombing killed “a lot of good men,” he said. “That was tough.” The soldiers moved through France, into Belgium and Holland, crossing the Rhine River into Germany before trooping back to Holland to tackle a stubborn pocket of German soldiers. Among the sad stories of lives lost and sacrifices made are some fond memories that Fouchard holds dear to this day. He and his brother met up with their father, who was briefly overseas for some military police business. Fouchard can still remember walking with them down a street in Manchester, England. “This lady comes up and she starts berating my father, ‘You can’t arrest those two young men.’ We were trying to convince her, ‘No, it’s alright. He’s our dad,’” he said chuckling. On another occasion, deep in the heart of Europe, Fouchard found a bottle of wine and carried it in his kit bag with the idea of uncorking it on his birthday on Jan. 1. But his plans were derailed by German paratroopers, who made a surprise landing nearby on Dec. 31, 1944.

“They caught us with our pants down,” Fouchard said. “These are tough guys. You don’t screw around with them.” He piled into a truck with other soldiers and they braced themselves for battle, but the paratroopers proved to be “pussycats,” all too eager to surrender. “Then I came back and my bottle of wine was smashed – kicked over in the schmozzle,” he said. “I just about cried. I saved that thing for all these months. I didn’t even have any wine for my birthday.” When Fouchard returned to Ottawa after the war, he struggled to adjust to the change of pace. “You’ve been on edge for five years and then suddenly…,” he said, his voice trailing off. “I think everybody went through a period when they came home – there was no excitement. It was very dull.” Once his wife joined him on Canadian soil in 1946, life improved. “I was lucky to have Betty for a wife because she was very understanding of all this.” They built a life together, first in Westboro before finally calling Blossom Park West home – their most recent address before they transitioned to the Maplewood residence just over two years ago. The couple had four sons. Fouchard stayed in the military for 27 years – the bulk of it with the Army Survey Establishment – now known as the Mapping and Charting Establishment. Betty pursued a career with the federal government. Her father had even immigrated to Canada to be closer to her. For Fouchard and his wife, Nov. 11 is a day to reflect on the fallen, no matter how painful the memories. “What a waste – all these good men and women,” Fouchard said, growing quiet. Watching the televised service of the National War Memorial remains a challenge, particularly the two minutes of silence and the playing of the Last Post. “I’m not much good. I’m away in my own thoughts,” said Fouchard. “It brings back the bad stuff, which you’ve been trying to hold down. Then it gets ahead of you. “You can’t push it down anymore – for a little while.”

Minister calls for food strategy in climate change battle Ottawa climate change symposium tackles food security Alex Robinson

alex.robinson@metroland.com

Provincial Environment Minister Glen Murray has called for a continental food security strategy to deal with food shortages climate change could cause for Canada and its neighbours. Long before rising water levels will threaten North America, the continent will have to deal with severe agricultural problems caused by climate change, Murray said at a symposium on the topic in Ottawa on Nov. 13. “We’re going to need one. We have to start looking at where our food comes from, and where it’s going, how much of it we’re wasting and how these droughts are going to impact the security of that food supply,” he told reporters after giving a speech at the symposium, which was organized by

Alex Robinson/Metroland

Glen Murray, the provincial minister for the environment and climate change, speaks at a Canadian Climate Forum symposium at the Westin Hotel on Nov. 13. the Canadian Climate Forum. “The first thing we need to do is a risk assessment of food security around the world.” Researchers have predicted

global temperatures could rise 4 C by 2100, which could have devastating consequences on agriculture and food supply. Canada has a dependence

on California for many fruits and vegetables, especially during winter. The state’s farms have had to deal with crippling droughts over the past four

years, which have driven up prices on some foods. The effects of food security can also stem much further than just determining what kind of foods are on Canadian tables, Murray said. Researchers at the National Academy of Sciences recently released a study, linking a severe drought in Syria from 2006 and 2009 with the country’s instability that sprouted into civil war. The study said the drought, which was one of the worst in modern history, was caused by climate change and was a factor in fuelling unrest, as it devastated the livelihood of many Syrian farmers. “If we’re not going to intervene or try to understand the severity of these events sooner, we’re going to end up with some conflict situations that might be very destabilizing,” Murray said. Murray said he is pitching the idea of a continental food strategy to colleagues in Quebec and California, which have forged cap-and-trade agreements with Ontario.

Murray’s comments came as he and his provincial counterparts prepare to attend the COP21, a major climate change conference in Paris in early December. He said food security will be among the many issues connected to climate change he will be looking to learn more about at the summit.

“The problem with climate change and one of the challenges we have today is the pace of change itself.” Glen Murray, environment minister

“The problem with climate change and one of the challenges we have today is the pace of change itself,” Murray said. “Every time you start to solve one problem it’s a bit like whack-a-mole – you learn about another one.”

Fire crews snuff out flames in Riverside South condo unit Staff

Firefighters are being credited for preventing a fire at a condo from spreading to neighbouring units in Riverside South. Emergency crews were dispatched just after 8 p.m. on Nov. 10 to 109 Eye Bright Cr., off North Bluff Drive, north of Earl Armstrong Drive, after multiple 911 callers reported that flames

could be seen coming from a second-storey balcony at the back of the two-storey residence. Firefighters declared a working fire upon arrival at the multi-unit condominium. “Fire crews prevented the fire from spreading with a quick knock-down,” communications staff said in a media advisory. Their efforts took about 20 min-

utes. No one was injured in the incident. The cause of the fire, source and an estimated cost of the damages to the condo unit’s contents and structure were not immediately available. Ottawa police, paramedics, Enbridge Gas and Ottawa Hydro were also called to the scene.

NOTICE OF STUDY COMMENCEMENT GREENBANK ROAD WATERMAIN MUNICIPAL CLASS ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT AND FUNCTIONAL DESIGN The City of Ottawa has initiated a Municipal Class Environmental Assessment (Class EA) and Functional Design Study for the construction of a new 610 mm diameter transmission watermain on Greenbank Road between Jockvale Road and south of the Jock River as shown on a Figure 1. The objective of this study is to determine the appropriate alignment of the proposed watermain within the realigned Greenbank Road and to determine the most appropriate method for the crossing of the Jock River, including the use of trenchless technologies. Figure 1. Location of the Greenbank Watermain Project

Several 911 calls alerted authorities to flames that could be seen from a balcony at a multiunit condominium in Riverside South on Nov. 10.

St. Laurent Boulevard Transit Improvements (Industrial to Smyth) Notice of Project Commencement and Open House Invitation The Study The City of Ottawa is undertaking a Design and Environmental Assessment Study for intersection and transit facility improvements on St. Laurent Boulevard from north of Industrial Avenue to south of Smyth Road. The project has three main components: • Reconstructing and expanding the Innes / Industrial / St. Laurent intersection to accommodate additional turning lanes and new cycling facilities; • Reconstructing and widening St. Laurent Boulevard, within the existing right-of-way, to include a bus-only lane and a raised cycle track in each direction. The existing travel lanes will be maintained; and • Minor improvements to the parking lot entrance near Elmvale transit station.

Requirement for this new transmission watermain was identiﬁed in the 2013 City of Ottawa Infrastructure Master Plan as a necessary link to improve water supply and reliability in the Barrhaven South development area. In 2006 the City completed the Greenbank Road Class EA Environmental Study Report with the recommendation to widen and realign Greenbank Road from Strandherd Drive to Cambrian Road, including a new bridge structure over the Jock River. The proposed planning and construction for the 610 mm diameter transmission watermain will be closely coordinated with the Greenbank Road project.

This study is being planned under Schedule “C” of the Municipal Class Environmental Assessment (October 2000, as amended in 2007), which is approved under the Ontario Environmental Assessment Act.

This study will be carried out in accordance with the requirements of Phases 1 and 2 of the Municipal Class EA. The study will include identiﬁcation and evaluation of alternative alignments, selection of a preferred alternative and a functional design of the preferred alternative.

Open House You are invited to attend a Public Open House for the project scheduled for:

There is an opportunity at any time during the Municipal Class EA process for interested persons to provide comments. With the exception of personal information, comments received become part of the public record.

Here, Smith, left, goes one-on-one with the evening’s celebrity emcee Jock Climie, himself a 12-year veteran of the CFL and current football analyst on TSN. Their conversation focused on Smith’s career and touched on his successes on the dance floor as a participant in the popular Dancing With The Stars reality television show.

PET OF THE WEEK

Pet Adoptions Meet Ben (ID# A183990), a loving and unique boy looking for his purr-fect match. Ben is a friendly and devoted cat that loves to spend time with his human friends. He enjoys soaking up the sun from a wonderful window perch where he can watch the world go by. Ben would prefer to be the only pet in the home so he can focus all of his love and attention on you. Could Ben be the pet for you? For more information on Ben and all the adoptable animals, stop by the OHS at 245 West Hunat Club Rd Check out our website at www.ottawahumane.ca to see photos and descriptions of the animals available for adoption.

What we do for kids

Ben (ID# A183990) International Humane Education icon Zoe Weil bases much of her efforts on her belief that “the world becomes what we teach,” and we agree. The OHS is committed to helping animals today, but we know that, to create real change for animals in our community, we can’t stop there. We need to work now to help the animals of tomorrow, too. But how? A key component in achieving long-term change in animal welfare is one which is key in achieving change in virtually any issue: we have to reach, inspire, and empower…children. Children are the next generation – of politicians, of parents, and of pet owners. They will base their decisions and their actions on the knowledge and experiences they acquire throughout their lives. So we are working hard today to ensure we have a positive impact on the lives and futures of both kids and animals in Ottawa. Here’s how: • Our Humane Education School Program visits classrooms Grades 1-12 across our city to provide lessons on animal safety, care, and welfare. We work with students and teachers to support class and group projects advocating for animals through creative, studentinitiated activities and campaigns. • Our on-site Field Trip Program invites Grade 2 classes to visit our shelter to enjoy hands-on learning experiences with animals through curriculum-based lessons and activities. • Our popular Camp programs provide active learning for children during PD days, March Break, and through the summer months, allowing children to gain in-depth understandings of many different animal topics including safety, humane handling, and animal needs through fun hands-on activities.

• Our youth Animal Advocate Program is a go-to event for young animal lovers who are interested in learning more about animal welfare topics and careers through direct contact with animals and knowledgeable staff at our shelter. • Our Leadership Education for Adolescents and Dogs (LEAD) program works with community partners to provide a unique experience in dog care and training, and the power of the humananimal bond, to at-risk youth in our community. • Our OHS Birthday Parties combine fun and celebration with animals and humane education for kids. While celebrating with friends, children learn about our shelter and visit with many of our adoptable animals. • Our seasonal Family Events invite kids and their parents to visit the OHS and partake in a variety of fun activities while meeting animals and visiting with our shelter staff and volunteers. • Our OHSkids.ca website provides fun learning opportunities for kids at home or in school through our informative pages on animal care, our activity pages, and our “Ask Buddy & Belle” link for kids to have their animal-related questions answered. Combined, our efforts are reaching tens of thousands of children in Ottawa each year. Our goals are to create positive, meaningful experiences that impart knowledge, empathy, and essential character development onto every child we meet and teach. In the next generation, we are creating the future voice for animals. We are shaping what our world – their world – will become. Learn more at www.ottawahumane.ca
