Witness reports indicate the two men were shooting at each other as they ran from Heron Road in behind row houses on Cedarwood. The Ottawa police gunsand-gangs unit is investigating whether the shooting is gangrelated. “This wasn’t just a random

OPINION EDITORIAL

When the party comes to town

T

he eyes of many a sports fan in Ottawa are cast enviously in the direction of the FIFA World Cup in Brazil right now. Despite being thousands of kilometres away, the buzz throughout the city is palpable. From workplace and schoolyard banter, to the crowded bars and living rooms at game time, to cars festooned with flags of the many competing nations, it’s safe to say Ottawa has World Cup fever. This excitement will continue to build throughout the tournament, culminating on July 13 when the two finalists meet on the pitch of Rio de Janeiro’s famous Maracana to decide who will be crowned world champions. On July 14, all the excitement will be over, and the summer of 2018 will seem far, far away. Yet we here in Ottawa, as with the rest of Canada, can take heart: next summer, the party will be coming to us: the Women’s World Cup starts on June 6, 2015. This will be our chance to fill the stands of stadiums across the country – including our very own

TD Place – to soak up the spectacle that is World Cup soccer. We’ll get to see the best women’s players on the planet, including Canadian stars such as Christine Sinclair, Erin McLeod, Diana Matheson, Rhian Wilkinson and Sophie Schmidt. Many of these players might not be household names, but by time the final match is played on July 5, we’ll be just as familiar with these stars as many people will be with their men’s counterparts this summer. While there may be a great deal of contention surrounding the first events to be staged at the stadium when it opens this summer, many of the transportation issues will be worked out as the Ottawa Redblacks and Ottawa Fury seasons progress. There may very well be snarled traffic, raging drivers and riled residents in July and August, but by time the fall rolls around, most of the problems will be moot. The world is coming to town next summer to once again celebrate the global game. It will be well worth the wait.

It’s up to us to avoid Lansdowne parking pitfalls

I

t was encouraging to see the confidence with which the Lansdowne Park folks laid out their traffic plan for Ottawa Redblacks football games. All the citizens of Ottawa have to do is cooperate by behaving as it has been predicted we will. Are we up to the task? It would be nice. According to the Lansdowne Park folks, only a small percentage of us can park on-site, 1,400 people, out of an estimate 24,000 football fans. A somewhat larger percentage of us will do what is described as on-street parking – or prowling around every street in the Glebe and Ottawa South in the unrealistic hope that others have left an empty space for them. These are the sorts of people the

Lansdowne Park folks are confident most of us will not be. Leave your cars at home, they implore us, and their projections reflect a confidence that the imploring will work. According to the projections, there will be a nice group of people, 700 perhaps, will take bicycles, and another nice group of people, 2,100 in all, will walk. Then there are 4,800 who will take transit and another 8,800 will park and take a shuttle. These are all fine, socially and

environmentally responsible folks. When you add us all up, the walkers and cyclists and bus riders and (hiss) drivers, we are projected to make for a workable football experience. If only. We remember only too well how we failed miserably to measure up to the predictions of pollsters on how we would vote in this month’s provincial election. Will we let the experts down again? Well, we can hope not. It appears that few efforts have been spared to persuade us to get to the game by means other than driving. On-site parking has been made scarce. Parkand-ride locations have been set up across the city, with special buses and shuttles set to take people to and from Lansdowne. There are even plans to email ticketholders with

details about how they can best get to the game without driving there. So it’s not as if we haven’t been told. The question is: has that ever stopped us before? Mostly no, is the answer. Ottawa, like most cities without a subway, is the kind of town where people’s first instinct is to hop in the car. It is also, regrettably, the kind of town where people go to any lengths to find a free parking spot. The people who live near Lansdowne know what that means. On game day, or during the old SuperEx, the streets crawled with cars. You couldn’t move in or out. Of course, it wasn’t any more pleasant being in those cars than watching them creep by. No matter how much you love your car, there are times when it’s more enjoyable not to be in it. So it’s always possible people have learned their lesson – or at least enough to allow a football to take place without total chaos. EDITORIAL MANAGING EDITOR: 4HERESA &RITZ

Transit is really the key. Experience has shown that people won’t leave their cars at home just to be nice. It has to be made easy for them. That’s a lesson that applies far beyond Lansdowne Park, to the city as a whole.

How to develop world-class soccer players

A

couple of years ago, I signed my two boys up for a winter soccer skills program with the Gloucester Hornets. Overseen by Hornets’ head coach Michael Lanos, the program was exceptionally well-run from the get go. For an hour each Sunday, the kids would do drills and non-competitive practice mini games in the dome at the Hornets’ Nest. There were no full-field games, no goalkeepers, no refs and no big kicking. The entire program was focused around maintaining control of the ball. It was also about allowing players to make their own decisions on the field.

BRYNNA LESLIE Capital Muse As always, there was a group of enthusiastic parents cheering on Little Johnny from the sidelines. “Go, John,� rang the high-pitched voice of one mother during a non-competitive quarter field non-game. It was mildly annoying, but not so bad, really. But then, “John, pass it! PASS the ball, John! PASS IT!!� And that’s when we all got

the lecture. Lanos wasn’t pleased. He told parents to be quiet. The reason, he told us, that Canada has no presence in World Cup soccer is because of parents like us, screaming from the sidelines. When we shout out commands, we’re not allowing the kids to make their own decisions about how to play the game.

“If little Johnny wants to take the ball all the way to the net, then he should do that,� said Lanos. “If little Johnny decides it’s a good time to pass, then fine. But nobody on the sidelines – none of you -should be telling little Johnny what to do in the heat of the moment.� At the time, I thought it was a little over-the-top, although Lanos was stern enough that I vowed to keep my mouth shut for the rest of the season. The Globe and Mail’s Cathal Kelly cited a number of reasons Canada hasn’t been able to develop world class soccer players – we (the parents) are too competitive, there’s too much structure to the sport and we don’t have

Kelly’s observation about the importance of learning in isolation, they took it to heart. Yes, I spoiled them. I bought them a replica size four Brazil World Cup soccer ball. I bought my younger son another Adidas soccer ball, so they can play and play. But the thing is, it’s worked. They’re out every day after school, dribbling and bouncing the balls off each other’s heads. They’re biking to the park to shoot at tree targets. They’re playing in the morning before they get on the school bus. I don’t have any real aspirations that my kids will become World Cup soccer players. But I’d like to think that their learning in isolation is a step in the right direction for Canada to one day make it again into the finals. In the meantime, Go, England, Go!

many professional soccer teams to inspire kids. But the thing that stuck with me most was the following quote: “The most important skills in soccer are developed in isolation.� Kelly refers to Brazil, a poor country economically, but one with a record five World Cups. Kids there, he says, play the game obsessively. They’re given woven balls from birth; they play pick-up soccer in the streets and monkey-in-the-middle. They just play the game. I read the article to my own boys before the World Cup began. (It’s World Cup fever at our house right now). Sometimes, as parents, we strike when the iron’s hot. Their recreational league this summer has teams named after those participating in the World Cup. When I told them

South Ottawa offers celebration options on Canada Day erin.mccracken@metroland.com

Planning is underway in the lead up to Canada’s birthday party in Claudette Cain Park in Riverside South, a community that has seen rapid growth in recent years. Between 2,000 and 3,000 people, possibly more came to the park on July 1 to celebrate, said Chris Hill, president of

the Riverside South Community Association, which is organizing the festivities. The event was moved to the park, located at 4300 River Rd., two years ago from the Rideauview Community Centre due to space limitations. “The event itself has grown in terms of scope, but also the appetite for the event,” Hill said. “I think people are looking for an alternative to going downtown for Canada Day

nect to things that build community,” he said. Organizers are hoping more people will lend a helping hand during the day-long event. Between 60 and 80 volunteers are needed. “It’s a struggle to get volunteers,” she said, adding that anyone interested in lending a hand at Claudette Cain Park is asked to email volunteers@ riversidesouth.org.

bert, adding that people of all ages will enjoy the diverse activities that are planned. Following the party every year, she said she receives a lot of positive feedback, which serve as a great motivator for organizers. “I’ll have random people stop me on the street (and say), ‘Oh, that was so much fun,’” Gilbert said. “It’s very gratifying” Organizers are already looking to next year, when they hope to include a fireworks display and possibly a battle of the bands. “Down the road we want to grow (the event) even more and appeal to the tweens and the teens,” Hill said, adding that his long-term goal for the association is to become involved in more community events. “People are looking to con-

and we’ve offered that alternative.” This year, activities will include entertainment and music, 11 inflatable games and rides, plus a miniature train ride, a petting zoo and pony rides, face painting, a roaming balloon clown and superhero, a cash barbecue, crafts, a 1 p.m. cake cutting, a fire truck and martial-arts demonstrations. “There’s something that will appeal to the senses no matter what time of day,” Hill said. Lesia Gilbert, the association’s social events co-ordinator, said children ages three to 12 can access the activities with a $10 fun pass, which helps the association offset the $16,000 cost to fund the daylong event. “The majority of the neighbourhood (that comes) is young families, so that’s why we cater to that age,” said Gil-

Re: “Making sense of it all,” editorial, June 19, Ottawa South News. It’s quite disturbing to me that the Ottawa South News, with an elected MPP representing a majority of the voters in the district, would have such a negative take on the Ontario election. It was clear that the electors rejected the austerity platform of the “Progressive” Conservatives, and did indeed endorse the Liberal’s policies, includ-

ing the much needed Green Energy Act. Your lecturing Kathleen Wynne shows your bias, and not the voters’ sentiments. Of course the Liberals do not have carte blanche, but if you had listened to what the premier was saying you would have realized that, and indeed, she is well aware of the need to balance the budget by 2017, only a year later than the PC’s projections. I did not sense any “fear” tactics on the part of the Liberals, only a reiteration of the

foolhardy Tim Hudak plan to slash 100,000 public service workers’ jobs. On the other hand, you seem to think that Premier Wynne should be held accountable for all the scandals that the PC mass media kept projecting would continue, certainly a much stronger “fear” message. Your newspaper is supposed to reflect the community, and this community has spoken. Peter Haley Alta Vista

Several schools locked down after report of male carrying gun Erin McCracken erin.mccracken@metroland.com

News - Four Alta Vista schools were locked down after a student at Charles H. Hulse Public School saw a male walking by carrying a gun Thursday afternoon, June 19. Students playing outside during the afternoon recess were quickly ushered inside,

and the school at 2605 Alta Vista Dr. was locked down, with no one being allowed in or out – except police – and children hiding in their classrooms. The gun-toting suspect was not found, despite the efforts of several Ottawa police tactical, canine and patrol officers who swarmed the area, between Heron and Walkley roads, and focused their atten-

tion on a wooded area behind the school. “Students are safe and were never in danger,” said Sharlene Hunter, spokeswoman for the Ottawa-Carleton District School Board. Still, parents who gathered at the school to wait out the lock down were not only frustrated about what they said was a lack of communication by police and school officials,

but that a suspect was not apprehended. “If there was really someone spotted with a gun, he got away today,” said Shantel, who raced to the school around 2:20 p.m. to see her five-year-old son after she saw heavily armed officers combing the area between her home on Colliston Avenue and the school. “They didn’t find anybody.

That’s why I’m worried,” said the concerned parent, who did not want to provide her last name out of concern for her family’s safety. “If there was really a person with a gun, and they didn’t find them with all this SWAT and everything here, what’s to say this person won’t come back?” An Ottawa police plane was first on the scene and scanned

the woods, to no avail. Meanwhile, dozens of worried parents, many of whom had arrived to pick up their children at the 3 p.m. close of school, waited with bated breath outside for nearly an hour, not knowing whether or not something had happened inside. See OFFICERS, page 13

As an Ottawa police officer looks on, a panicked parent is held back by concerned friends and family who gathered outside Charles H. Hulse Public School on Alta Vista Drive after the school was locked down following a report of a man walking on school grounds carrying a gun. Several schools in the neighbourhood were locked down for about an hour on June 19. The gunman wasn’t found, and no children were injured.

Anxious parents are finally allowed onto school grounds at Charles H. Hulse Public School on June 19 to reunite with their children after the school was locked down for about an hour after a student at the school saw a man walking by carrying a gun. what’s going on,’” she said. The officers didn’t let her approach and she was forced to go the long way around, rather than cut through the heavily wooded area that police were combing, which is her usual route when taking her child to school. Many parents, including Shantel, were frustrated by a lack of communication by school and law-enforcement officials. “They didn’t tell us anything,” Shantel said. “I started panicking when I got here because I wasn’t told that it didn’t have anything to do with the school, that maybe something was happening inside.” She said she planned to keep

her son home the next day for fear the gunman could return to the area. When asked if the report could have been a false alarm, Marin declined to comment. Nearby schools, including neighbouring Ridgemont High School, Featherston Drive Public School and Alta Vista Public School, were also locked down as a precaution. Four nearby Catholic schools went into secure school mode during the incident, including Prince of Peace Elementary School on Heatherington Road, St. Patrick’s Intermediate School on Heron Road, St. Patrick’s High School on Alta Vista Drive and Queen of the Angels Adult School on Heron

Road. “In secure school (mode), the outside doors are locked and movement inside school is restricted, but school classes continue,” said Mardi de Kemp, spokeswoman for the Ottawa Catholic School Board. “We take direction from police when secure school (mode) ends,” she said, adding that this lasted for about an hour. Police said they don’t believe Thursday’s gun sighting is connected to a daylight shooting that rocked nearby Cedarwood Avenue in Herongate just two days prior on Tuesday, June 17, in which a man was shot in the face by another man.

Panic spread among parents waiting outside Charles H. Hulse, and one mother screamed for police to let her enter the school to see her children. Once reunited just before 4 p.m., some parents and children were in tears and held one another close as they made their way off the property. “We got a call from the school indicating there was a male, possibly armed with a gun, at the back of the school,” Ottawa police incident commander Insp. Michel Marin said after the lockdown was lifted just after 3:30 p.m. “The male was observed by a student during regular recess. The male went into the bushes.” “There was a grid search conducted by our tactical unit and our canine unit, assisted (by) our aircraft, and nothing was located,” Marin said outside the school, not long after parents were allowed to reunite with their children. “We’re satisfied at the moment there is no threat; we’re satisfied at the moment there’s nobody in the bushes and we’ll just have to go through an investigation,” the inspector said. Shantel raced to the school on foot when she saw tactical officers scanning the woods near her son’s school, a little more than a half hour before school was scheduled to let out for the day. Her immediate thought was the safety of her son, who is in junior kindergarten at Charles H. Hulse. “When I saw SWAT, … I said, ‘I’m going to come and get him because I don’t know

PHOTO COURESY CANADA SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY MUSEUMS CORPORATION

Alex Benay will take over as the new director of the Canada Science and Technology Museums Corporation on July 2.

Staff

News - The top job at three premier museums in the National Capital Region is changing hands July 2. Alex Benay has been appointed as president and chief executive officer of the Canada Science and Technology Museums Corporation by Shelly Glover, the minister of Canadian Heritage and Official Languages. Over the next five years of his contract, Benay will be responsible for a $33-million annual budget, a staff of approximately 225 employees and day-to-day operations at the corporation, which includes the Canada Science and Technology Museum, the Canada Agriculture and Food Museum and the Canada Aviation and Space Museum. Benay is touted as having “vast” management experience. “Alex Benay is an exceptional leader with the capacity to heighten the CSTMC profile as the only national museum institution entirely dedicated to tracking Canada’s rich his-

tory and heritage in science, technology and innovation,” Gary Polonsky, chair of the corporation’s board of trustees, said in a June 17 statement announcing the leadership change. Benay is leaving Open Text, a large Canadian software company, where he has worked as vice-president of government affairs and business development since 2011. He has been with the company since 2008. “Alex’s significant networks in the private and public sectors in Canada and internationally, and leadership experience with Canada’s digital industry, will be great assets in developing the corporation,” Polonsky said. Benay will replace Fernand Proulx who has been serving as the acting president and chief executive officer of the corporation since last June. Proulx is being credited for “considerably” increasing visitor attendance and entrepreneurial revenues since he took on the role. The museum corporation reports to Parliament through the minister of Canadian Heritage and Official Languages.

Witnesses say two men shot at each other near Cedarwood Drive on June 17.

Police believe shooters know each other

Got Events?

D A E R P S E TH

Police raced to the scene in the 2800-block of Cedarwood Drive, between Heron and Wakley roads, on June 17 at 5:21 p.m. Witness reports indicate the two men were shooting at each other as they ran from Heron Road in behind row houses on Cedarwood. The Ottawa police guns-and-gangs unit is investigating whether the shooting is gang-related. “This wasn’t just a random type of occurrence. We believe it was a targeted attempt,â€? said acting Staff Sgt. Ken Bryden, who heads the Ottawa police guns-and-gangs unit. “That part of the city is known for gang activity,â€? he said. Shootings have plagued that part of the city since the last quarter of 2013, he said. Investigators believe the two alleged shooters know each other. “They were together at a fast-food restaurant just prior to (the shooting) and it does look like they were hanging out as friends,â€? said Bryden. “(The investigation) started for us at the Dairy Queen on Heron Road. And shortly after (that) is when the actually shootings took place,â€? he said. The shooting victim, who was taken to hospital, has only given investigators an “extremely vagueâ€? explanation. He was initially reticent about disclosing his name, but has since told ofďŹ cers his identity. Sgt. Mike Saunders, with the gunsand-gangs unit, said the man, who is known to police, is “very luckyâ€? to be alive.

“He has an entry and an exit wound on his face,â€? he said. OfďŹ cers are examining video surveillance from the Dairy Queen restaurant as well as from the taxi cab they believe the suspect ed in following the shooting. “We believe that he got away in a tax and left the scene,â€? Bryden said, adding that a bystander noted the taxi’s licence-plate number. Depending on what investigators learn from the taxi video, police hoped to release a description of the shooting suspect at the end of the day on Tuesday, June 24 in hopes the public can help identify him. In addition to ďŹ nding .40-calibre shell casings at the scene, police also recovered .9-millimetre casings, he said, but added the second weapon was not recovered. A .40-calibre handgun was recovered at the scene after a resident allegedly saw a suspect dump the weapon in a green compost bin, Bryden said. Police believe it’s a miracle a bystander wasn’t caught in the crossďŹ re. “I just think that deďŹ nitely, with the time of the day and it is a congested neighbourhood and there’s lots of houses in succession there, that it is lucky that (the bullets) didn’t hit someone else or (go) through a home or a car or anything like that,â€? Saunders said. Both males involved in the shooting will likely face charges of use and possession of a ďŹ rearm, said Bryden. Anyone with information about the June 17 shooting is asked to call the Ottawa police guns-and-gangs unit at 613-236-1222, ext. 5050.

Gun violence sparks calls for return of Herongate police centre Erin McCracken erin.mccracken@metroland.com

News - A day-time gun fight between two men during which nine bullets were fired in broad daylight in Herongate last week has prompted residents to renew calls for the reopening of a community police centre in the neighbourhood just months after it was closed. Police tape was being strung up in the 2800-block of Cedarwood Drive as Perry Marleau was returning home from work on Tuesday, June 17. He soon learned that two men had opened fire on each other at around 5:20 p.m. near rental homes where many families live. One of the men suffered a gun-shot wound to the forehead, but the other fled and has not yet been identified. Police are working to determine if the shooting was gang-related. The experience, Marleau said, is sadly nothing new for tenants who have become all too familiar with the distinctive “pop” of gun shots. For that reason he is call-

Perry Marleau stands on Cedarwood Drive where a shooting on June 17 rocked the Herongate community in which he has lived for more than 20 years. He is among several residents who say the return of a community police centre that was closed earlier this year would help deter what they believe is escalating violence. ing on city officials to immediately reopen the community police centre, as well as boost resources for the Ottawa police guns-and-gangs unit. “It’s definitely getting worse since they closed the com-

munity policing centre,” said Marleau, who lives across the street from where the gun battle played out. “Ever since it’s been open season (for criminal activity),” said Marleau, who has lived in

Herongate for more than 20 years. “We are actually in an area where we’re dodging bullets.” “A child’s going to get hit one day in the crossfire.” Marleau, who ran twice for

a city council seat, said he is now trying to bring together residents, police and city officials at the Heron Road Community Centre within the next few weeks to discuss safety concerns, and revisit the issue

of the community police centre. “I just want the city to realize that ... the essential services they’re cutting at the police forces really affect the community directly,” said Marleau. The police centre in a Cedarwood Drive apartment complex had temporarily been closed for several months due to health and safety issues in the building, before signage at the centre was removed earlier this year. The office was slated for permanent closure in March, but community police officer Const. Rebecca Vanderwater was expected to continue working in the community, Ottawa police Supt. Ty Cameron said in April. The issue led police officials to consider whether the 15 community police centres, which cost about $180,000 a year to operate, should undergo a review. That process, which will include community input, is expected to continue into next year. See MORE, page 23

News - When maintaining the house in Elmvale Acres they had lived in for years became too much, Doreen Morgan and her husband moved into a newly constructed apartment at the Perley and Rideau Veterans’ Health Centre. It was Sept. 25, 2013, an important milestone in their lives. “That was the first day we could move in,” Morgan said, referencing last year’s opening of two new 139-unit apartment complexes for seniors, including veterans, at the centre, located at 1750 Russell Rd. “We were anxious to get in.” But, just one month later, her husband, 92, was admitted to hospital with serious heart problems. All he wanted to do was return to the Perley and Rideau, which he considered to be his home. When he was finally allowed to leave the hospital, he found solace. “He was happy he was home,” said Morgan. 84. That night, in the early morning hours, he passed away. Despite her very tragic loss, Morgan said she finds comfort living at the Perley and

adding that the organization first began at the national level in 1925, and it is celebrating its 75th anniversary in Ottawa this year. In addition to providing security services, threat-risk assessments, mobile-alarm response and criminal background checks, “we also ... give back to veterans and military families. That’s who we are.” The organization is expanding, which means good news for veterans, he said. “When we grow, we can create more jobs for our veterans and can afford to give back to community causes like the Perley and Rideau seniors village,” Guindon said. The announcement was also celebrated by long-time community volunteer and highly regarded philanthropist Grete Hall, who is an honourary co-chair of the capital campaign. “It’s a historic day. I like history and historic occasions,” said Hale, 85, who noted that June is Seniors’ Month. One of the principle reasons Hale agreed to co-chair the campaign is the Perley and Rideau’s long history of serving veterans and seniors, including her late husband, she said before 300 residents of the new buildings and donors who contributed to the campaign.

Rideau which she considers to be her home, where other residents rallied around her and where she can keep busy doing the many activities offered at the seniors village. As of June 17, her home now has a new name. Building A, as it has been called since construction began on the apartment complexes in 2011, is now known as Commissionaires Ottawa Place. It’s named in honour of Commissionaires Ottawa, which donated $1 million to the Perley and Rideau Veterans’ Health Centre Foundation’s $5-million Building Choices, Enriching Lives capital campaign, which will help pay for the complex. “I am humbled,” said Paul Guindon, a retired navy captain who joined Commissionaires Ottawa as its chief executive officer 10 years ago. “As a Canadian Armed Forces veteran, like many of you, I join you in supporting the Perley and Rideau as a very important anchor in our community.” He said it was only natural for Commissionaires Ottawa to support the creation of independent and assisted-living apartment units for seniors, including war veterans. “Commissionaires Ottawa is a private, not-for-profit, self-funded company and our social mandate includes a primary focus on hiring veterans and caring for them,” he said,

Public phase of Perley fundraiser launched Continued from page 18

The unveiling event coincided with the launch of the public phase of the fundraising initiative, as well and the success of the Perley and Rideau Veterans’ Health Centre Foundation’s work in generating half of the campaign’s goal. That money will help offset the $3.8-million cost of the seniors village, which includes an in-house pharmacy, hairstylist, dental hygienist clinic, physiotherapy and a hearing clinic, in addition to the apartment units. Of that total cost, $38 million in loans must be repaid. Construction on the two buildings began in 2011, and Building B was completed in March 2013, while work on Building A wrapped up in September 2013. About 90 per cent of the units are already full. There is a critical need for long-term housing for seniors, Hale said, adding that “If the statisticians are correct, there will soon be a lot more of us.” More than 90,000 seniors live in the National Capital Region, and that number is expected to triple within the next 20 years, according to statistics provided by the Perley and Rideau foun-

dation. “Clearly there’s a tremendous need for seniors to have access to a secure, supportive environment where they can be useful, active and respected,” Hale said. Building B at the seniors village will be named once a donor comes forward.

City to set development density quota News - Ottawa could be the first municipality in Ontario to set a minimum density for developments. The quota would apply to certain areas currently being rezoned as part of a project to ensure land-use rules match the goals set out in the city’s new Official Plan. Right now, the city often looks at maximum densities for new developments in most areas. The new policy would change that for certain target areas throughout the city.

Vanier resident Mireille Desmarais speaks to city planner Alain Miguelez, the city’s program manager of zoning and intensification, during a June 17 open house held for the city’s zoning review.

The new calculations will give the city a basis to examine whether development proposals can deliver the density builders claim, and more importantly, that the densities can be achieved without a need for a rezoning. “We’re trying to level the playing field,” said Beth Desmarias, the city planner in charge of the density calculations. The minimums are aimed at promoting high-density development in certain target areas, including: • Central area, including the business district.

• Arterial main streets, including Richmond Road north of Carling Avenue, St. Laurent Boulevard, Bank Street (south), Merivale Road, Montreal Road (east), Ogilvia Road, Walkley Road, Innes Road. • Town centres in Orleans, Kanata and Barrhaven and Riverside South. • Mixed-use centres, including Lees, Tunney’s Pasture, Bayview-Preston, Blair, Hurdman, Confederation Heights, Billings Bridge, Tremblay, St. Laurent and Cyrville. See ZONING, page 21

Zoning review final step in setting city’s growth goals Continued from page 20

A map with the specific locations it will apply to will be posted in the public consultation section of ottawa. ca under “zoning review.” The data is based on employment and retail studies the city completes every other year. Any developers who don’t agree with the density calculations could challenge it with their own research and if the planning committee agrees with a developer’s study, it would amend the entire density calculation table that would apply to all new developments in the priority areas. The Building Owners and Managers Association of Ottawa has appealed the Official Plan to the Ontario Municipal Board and the minimum densities is one of the issues the group is concerned with, said the group’s executive director, Dean Karakasis. “Overall we believe that this, like other sections of the Official Plan, are too prescriptive and the city will find that it limits the ability for developers to put together good design, good developments and overall good ideas for different parts of town,” Karakasis wrote in an email.

The minimum density “spot rezonings” the city apcalculations are just one part proves at the behest of developof a much larger “zoning re- ers. view” for which the city is “It’s what they said they were currently seeking feedback.

going to do,” said Linda Hoad from the Hintonburg Community Association’s planning committee.

But she said the zoning review won’t completely do away with spot rezonings. “But they aren’t doing a com-

prehensive zoning bylaw review for the whole city,” Hoad said. “We’ll still get (developers) saying the zoning is out of date.”

ZONING REVIEW

All the projects – from density studies to additional infill rules to zoning for certain main streets throughout the city – are the final step in implementing the growth goals set out in the city’s new Official Plan. But very few people came out to view the plans at a June 17 open house at city hall. “This is pretty dry stuff,” said Chris Bradshaw, a Sandy Hill resident who visited the open house. The review now will ensure that zoning – the details on what kinds of residential, commercial or industrial use can occupy a property and how big the building can be – match what the city has called for in the blueprint of how Ottawa will grow, its Official Plan. That’s a big deal for planning committee chairman Peter Hume, who has been promising land-use certainty to communities and developers for the last two years. The goal is to reduce the number of much-maligned

City to study landlord licences near Algonquin College Laura Mueller laura.mueller@metroland.com

News - The city will study possible licensing of landlords near Algonquin College and other regulations for rental housing. The review was instigated by College Ward Coun. Rick Chiarelli, whose constituents are increasingly concerned about illegal rooming houses

where homes are converted into more than four dwelling units. Chiarelli wants city staff to look at requiring homeowners in Ryan Farm, Cityview and Bel-Air who want to be landlords to obtain a licence. Other municipalities in Ontario have done something similar as a way to require inspection of the units and compel landlords to comply with

property standards bylaws. In other cities, the licensing only applies within “specific, small, tightly geographically defined areas” that correspond to the problems associated with illegal rental conversions and absentee landlords, according to a city report. The Ottawa study is just getting underway but the move was met with frustration by John Dickie, who represents

Cannonball Rush Claim your fame on Fort Henry Hill

Fort Henry was built on the hill top overlooking historic Kingston, Ontario, the city’s highest point of land, at the convergence of Lake Ontario, the St. Lawrence and the Rideau Canal to fend off the enemy in 1812. Its design and architecture was crafted to intimidate and dominate the enemy before they hit the exposed areas below. Built on a giant slab of granite, it is surrounded by very rough terrain and natural obstacles that make assaulting the mighty Fortress a hopeless endeavor. No one dared attack… until now! Suit up on Saturday July 12th 2014 as Fort Henry hosts the second annual Cannonball Rush - an outdoor 5 K run and tricky obstacle challenge, testing your strength, endurance, determination, and team spirit. This is a grand opportunity to get family and friends together and create a memorable experience at Ontario’s only UNESCO World Heritage Site that you’ll fondly look back on over the years. Start time is 10am sharp and be prepared to take on ten or more challenging obstacles. This outdoors event is open to ages 18 and older. Teams welcomed with a minimum of four participants to a maximum of 10 participants. Each brave ‘rusher’ will receive a Cannonball Rush Tech T-Shirt, a

the Eastern Ontario Landlord Organization. Although Dickie said most of his organization’s member would not be affected by a potential new licence for renting out rooms in single-family homes, he said he is opposed to any form of rental licensing. Adding fees and bureaucracy would put a burden on the city and could drive up the cost of renting an apartment, making living costs less affordable, Dickie argued. He said the “cure could be worse than the disease,” noting there are currently very few problems and it doesn’t make sense to regulate and “punish” all small landlords when the issues would be better tackled by finding ways to enforce the existing bylaws when they are broken. Rideau-Vanier Coun. Mathieu Fluery, whose ward

experiences student-housing issues in Sandy Hill, also argued the city should zero in on the issues: gaining access to inspect problem addresses and enforcing property standards. Fleury asked city staff to look at the citywide impact of licensing rental housing in a certain area and the potential for the problem to spread beyond the boundaries that would be set for where a license is required. Differentiating between a “rooming house” and rental apartments in the review will also be important, Fleury said. Landlords in the area can rent out an entire house, including three or four bedrooms in a single-family home, but the current bylaw doesn’t regulate how many people can live in each bedroom – only the size of the rooms. That’s different from a rooming house, in

which rooms are rented out as individual units with a shared kitchen. A couple of local residents in College Ward saw the issue more simply: as a way to crack down on landlords who are behaving illegally. Jud Rasmussen, a Ryan Farm resident, said students are also part of the community, but said the student-housing issue is a sensitive point. He said he wants a solution that will focus on reducing the number of landlords who break the law in order to monetize the neighbourhood. John Batchelor, another resident, said the community just wants a way to stop the “extreme abuse,” not stop room rentals entirely. He said the city should “nip the issue in the bud” before people start buying up houses in the area and converting them into 12 bedrooms.

More frequent police patrols better investment in safety: Coun. Continued from page 17

Coun. Diane Deans, whose Gloucester-Southgate ward is served by the Herongate community police officer, said at the time she is working with police to move the centre into her ward’s Heatherington neighbourhood. But Alta Vista ward Coun. Peter Hume said the money absorbed by a Herongate community police centre would be better spent on other investments. He pointed to the refurbishment of nearby basketball courts last year as an example. “I think it’s more boots, more frequent patrols, and more constables in the neighbourhood than sort of bricksand-mortar facilities … as opposed to the sort of a plaque on a door that really always isn’t even open and there’s not even a permanent officer there,” said Hume, whose ward includes Herongate. If the Herongate community police centre continued to operate, it would not have discouraged last week’s shooting “because it’s not a police station,” he said. “I really don’t think it’s a visible enough deterrent to warrant the investment that you’d have to make in it.” When asked if a collaborative effort among police, city officials, tenants and property owners could help improve neighbourhood safety Hume said, “To do what? To prevent two people from having an argument?” This violent act, while “a significant concern,” is not unique to Herongate, and was not a random occurrence, said Hume. “You don’t have to worry about being on a street corner

Several Herongate residents say the closure of the community police centre in their community sends the wrong message to criminals. and having some car drive by and shoot at you,” he said. But several residents disagree, saying the closure of the community police centre is counterproductive. “Taking that out of there – I can’t imagine that was anything but a good thing for the gangsters, because people are scared,” said one man, who declined to provide his name for safety reasons. He said far too often he saw heavily armed officers on Colliston Crescent, off Walkley Road, where he and his family have lived for eight years. “We don’t need people with assault rifles, we need people talking to people,” he said. He and his wife decided last year to move away from the community, even before Herongate was rocked by two drive-by shootings just two weeks apart in March. Then, on Thursday, June 19, two days after the recent gun fight, they were shaken up when Charles H. Hulse Public School, where their six-yearold daughter attends school,

was locked down along with three more schools, after a male was seen walking by with a gun. Police searched the area, but a gunman was never found. “Moving is our answer,” said the concerned mother, who also did not want to give her name. “I don’t want (my youngest daughter) growing up in this. “We don’t go out at night, or even to the Dairy Queen (on Heron Road),” she said. “Everyone’s got the same fear: there’s no one to protect us,” her husband added. “This is how gangs work. They get their power by keeping people scared.” David Purcell and his wife were also still reeling from the recent gun violence as they waited at the same school to reunite with their two young sons. Resurgence in crime in Herongate within the past two years has prompted them to consider moving. “I don’t think the police have really implemented their

model of community based policing appropriately, obviously, because they’re not seeing much results,” he said, adding that the recent swell of violence may also be a side effect of the closure of the community police centre on Cedarwood Drive. “When the violence escalates, it becomes an issue for everybody,” he said. Matt Lakatos-Hayward, who campaigned as a Green party candidate for the Ottawa South riding in the recent provincial election, said more school outreach programs and creative outlets for youth to channel their energy could help. “Reaction is better than nothing at all, but, I mean, we should be trying to solve things as opposed to react to something,” said Lakatos-Hayward. When asked if the company that owns the rental properties where the centre was housed would welcome its return, the company’s director of operations said, “We’d love to continue the working relationship

with the Ottawa police.” Blair Spencer, director of operations for Timbercreek Communities in Ottawa, said tenant safety remains a top concern for the property owner, which purchased the rental units from Transglobe Property Management within the last two years. Security cameras operate 24 hours a day, electronic key readers have been installed in all buildings and contracted security personnel from Intelligarde patrol the premises seven days a week, said Spencer. The company also regularly meets with tenants and bylaw officers and works with police to identify and prevent crime in the area, he said. “That’s one of our biggest focuses for the community here,” he said. Spencer said Timbercreek is also looking to enroll in the Ottawa police crime free multi-housing program, which is a safety and crime-prevention initiative. The program includes landlord training, building audits and screening of new and renewing tenants. John Redins, who has lived on Cedarwood Drive for the past nine years, agrees the community has improved since Timbercreek took up ownership. But while tenants regularly meet with the property owner, he said, more needs to be done within the greater Herongate community to improve safety. A recent increase in the number of police patrols following the recent shooting is not enough to benefit the longterm quality of life for residents, he added. “Once an incident happens the police seem to come back, but it’s not stable enough be-

cause everything quiets down and things pick up again and (then) they show up (again),” he said. “They don’t have consistency.” He agrees with Marleau that the answer lies in more collaboration among community stakeholders. “It’s got to be a partnership between public (and) private and making the youth aware that there is a future,” Redins said. Mavis Finnamore, a longtime tenant of the property and a member of citizen-advocacy group the Association of Community Organizations for Reform Now, said she focuses on working with the landlord to improve the rental properties. “Building neglect is an invitation for criminals,” she said, adding that the property has seen many positive improvements in the last couple of years. But the closure of the community police centre sends the wrong message, Finnamore said. “I don’t know how effective they were, but maybe the idea of having a storefront there somehow gave the impression that there was somebody looking out for you,” she said. “And when you remove things like that, definitely, to some people, it would be like a green light.” The bottom line is that Herongate is a community in need, said Marleau, adding that while positive changes have been made in recent years, they aren’t happening fast enough. “We’re nothing. It’s like climbing a huge mountain,” he said. “We are the forgotten community.” With files from Laura Mueller and Michelle Nash

City to search for St. Patrick path money Pathway could be built this year or next; cyclists can use sidewalk in the interim Laura Mueller laura.mueller@metroland.com

News - The city will look to build a multi-use path for cyclists and pedestrians on the north side of St. Patrick Street, but it might not happen this year. Rideau-Vanier Coun. Mathieu Fleury said city staff agreed to design the pathway to run from Cobourg Street west to just before King Edward Avenue. Now, they need to find around $150,000 to $200,000 to build the pathway. Cycling advocates, including Sarah Partridge of Velo Vanier and the Vanier Community Association, have

been asking for the project to be completed this summer because St. Patrick is being repaved. At the next transportation committee meeting on July 2, Fleury said he’ll ask city staff to look for any leftover money to complete the pathway, but it might have to wait until budget discussions next year. That section of St. Patrick is important because it connects Vanier to Lowertown and parts of the city west of the Rideau River. The city is already spending money to segregate cyclists from vehicle traffic over the St. Patrick Bridge as part of the east-west bikeway, which heads south at Cobourg, so leveraging that cycling route and making it safer for cyclists who choose to continue west on St. Patirck into the ByWard Market would make sense, Fleury said. In the meantime, Fleury wants the city to allow cyclists to legally use the sidewalks on that section of St. Patrick Street. Similar to what’s allowed on a portion of Hog’s Back Road, the city would install signs instructing pedes-

trians and cyclists to share the space. “We can do this in the interim,” Fleury said. Sharrow markings will also be painted on the road to instruct cyclists and motorists to share the outside lanes of St. Patrick. The markings will be “super sharrows” – large green boxes with bicycle markings, similar to what’s painted on Cummings Bridge. In the long-term, the city still plans to spend $1 million to add cycling tracks – cycling lanes raised to the level of the sidewalk – to St. Patrick when the entire road is eventually rebuilt, according to a letter from Mayor Jim Watson that was sent to Citizens for Safe Cycling. The mayor’s letter said 2015 will also see cycling improvements to St. Patrick and Murray streets between King Edward Avenue and Sussex Drive in the ByWard Market. The total cost of the St. Patrick resurfacing, which will apply a new coat of asphalt but not change the makeup of the street, will cost $2.3 million, Fleury said.

Custom versus off the shelf orthotics

more durable material and can last up to four-years. If your feet change or concerns about comfort arise during that time, you can have them modified at BioPed instead of having to purchase a completely new pair.

Do you have sore achy feet, knee or hip pain? You might be surprised to discover that a lot of your aches and pains can actually be prevented with an orthotic in your shoe. However, before you run out to your nearest drugstore to pick up a pair, you should know custom orthotics will provide much better support and relief than a brand hanging on a shelf. An orthotic acts as a brace to provide support and reduce strain on the muscles of the foot and lower leg. No two people have the same shaped feet, which is why to truly be effective orthotics should be moulded to fit your feet and

address your individual needs. At BioPed http://bioped.com, certified Pedorthists take the time to discover the individual needs of each patient. They conduct a gait assessment to identify any physical issues that are causing pain and discomfort and discuss lifestyle goals, concerns and medical conditions. A cast is then made of the patient’s foot and custom orthotics are handmade in their onsite lab to address patients’ individual needs. While store bought orthotics only last about six-months custom orthotics http://www. bioped.com/products/custom_ orthotics.asp are made from

Minimum fee is $3,995. (up to $400K) Call for details.

You might think that custom orthotics are too expensive. However, you’re more likely to go through several pairs of store-bought orthotics over the same period of time. In the end, you pay approximately the same amount but with custom orthotics you receive greater support and comfort. To discover how custom orthotics can help relieve the aches and pains you suffer from daily, visit BioPed http:// www.bioped.com/locations/ locations.asp?pv=on online to find a location in Ottawa near you.

Students win chance to play with Isles’ de Haan Erin McCracken erin.mccracken@metroland.com

News - It was difficult knowing who was more excited, the professional hockey player, the students he was about the play shinny with or the young fans who cheered from the sidelines. This was the scene at Steve MacLean Public School and St. Jerome School in Riverside South on June 20, as 10 players from each school grabbed their sticks to play ball hockey in two separate games alongside Calvin de Haan, a defenceman for the New York Islanders. “He’s really good,” said 10year-old Nick Auns, a Grade 4 student at Steve McLean school. Nick was one of the winners of a special contest held by the South Ottawa Race Day organizing committee to entice children and families to register for the upcoming Oct. 28 event during a oneweek period. Ten students from each school won the chance to play hockey with de Haan, while two more were awarded tickets to the July 16 Katy Perry concert. “It was pretty exciting news when he got home and (said) his name was picked and he got to play an NHL player,” said Nick’s father, Dan Auns, who was mistaken a few times following the game by Steve MacLean students who thought he was de Haan. “He’s been excited ever since,” he said. “He was

ERIN MCCRACKEN/METROLAND

New York Islanders Calvin de Haan plays ball hockey with students from Steve MacLean Public School in Riverside South on June 20. Ten students from the school and another 10 from St. Jerome School in the community won the chance to play with the New York Islanders defenceman through a contest offered by South Ottawa Race Day organizers. bouncing off the walls for four days. This is the talk of maybe the year, I think.” Nick had already planned to sign up to take part in the five-kilometre race during South Ottawa Race Day. He and his parents participated last year. The race is a fundraiser that supports brain cancer research through the Ottawa Regional Cancer Foundation. To date, it has generated $170,000. Organizers are hoping to raise another $100,000 this year. “That’s the other thing,

the committee members look at proposals and we decide which projects we think the money should go towards,” said race day co-chair Karen Hill. “So we’re kind of a part of that through the Ottawa Regional Cancer Foundation.” Her co-chair is Karen Sinclair, whose neurosurgeon husband helps them choose which projects would benefit from financial support. Many of these projects focus on glioblastoma melanoma or GBM tumours, a type of fast-acting brain tumour

that killed a close friend of the organizers. Very little research has been done on GBM because this cancer grows so quickly, Hill said. The race-day committee is encouraged in their efforts by the community as well as sponsors who have supported the cause. “We kind of went in blind thinking it would be a nice little run in the park, and it exploded in our first year,” Hill said. “At the time that (our

friend) died, we knew nobody else, and since then we know three people in our neighbourhood alone that have it.” This marked the first year organizers enticed possible registrations with prizes. In addition to Steve MacLean and St. Jerome schools, they’re planning to reach out to students at St. Francis Xavier and École Élémentaire Bernard-Grandmaître, and encourage them to take part in the race. Auns said the prize of playing hockey with a profes-

sional athlete was icing on the cake for an event the family looks forward to supporting every year. “It’s a great way to support the neighbourhood and support the cause,” he said. Once the shinny game was over, students flooded the play area behind the school to beg de Haan for autographs. The NHL player, who is from Carp and attended All Saints Catholic High School in Kanata, couldn’t sign the ball caps, papers, notebooks, mini hockey sticks and T-shirts that were thrust his way fast enough. “The kids were over the moon and that’s exactly what we hoped for when we set it up,” said Fraser Thom, a race day organizer, who arranged for de Haan’s visit. He knows de Haan, and is friends with his agent. “It’s great for Calvin to do this and put the effort into the kids and the schools and the communities,” said Thom, a Riverside South resident whose daughter attends Steve MacLean school. “I think he hard a hard time not being able to sign every single autograph. Even as he walked through the fence he snuck in a few last autographs. “That’s exactly what you want and why you put the effort in to putting it together and that’s what he wanted, too,” the organizer said. “At the end of the day, South Ottawa Race Day is largely about kids and about communities supporting a great cause.”

Ottawa South News - Thursday, June 26, 2014

as World Cup mascot Brier Dodge brier.dodge@metroland.com

Sports - Dozens of girls soccer players shrieked with delight when they saw the official mascot for the FIFA Women’s World Cup 2015, which will be hosted in six cities in Canada, including Ottawa. The girls were introduced to Shuéme, a great white owl, at the Museum of Nature on June 17 by 11-year-old soccer player Sarah Stapley, Laureen Harper, and Canadian soccer player Kara Lang. The announcement was heavy on emphasizing females in sport, with the event’s CEO Peter Montopoli and Minister of State (Sport) Bal Gosal taking a back seat to the women after their speeches. Lang told the audience that the rotunda at the Museum of Nature, used for the announcement, was the very spot that the House of Commons used while on a temporary leave from Parliament Hill. It was the spot they were in when they decided to officially give Canadian women the right to vote. “(It will be) the stage for the best players, showcasing the best of women’s sport, on and off the field,” Lang, the youngest Canadian women’s national team player ever, told the crowd. “It’s the ultimate experience for any player. To play on home soil is an amazing opportunity.”

The girls in attendance were excited to hug and take pictures with the owl mascot, who stretched out her large wingspan to dance with the kids. Cumberland United soccer player Riley Lancia, 7, skipped over the wings and feathers of the mascot, and said her favourite thing about Shuéme is that she is a female. Harper, the prime minister’s wife, said the World Cup is a chance to establish a global platform to “further establish a legacy for women.” Montopoli said he remembered Diana Matheson’s game-winning goal at the Olympics, with under a minute left of play in the semi-final, and turning to hug Gosal, who was brought to tears and crying with happiness and pride. “You rallied the country at the summer Olympics, and I’m confident you’ll do it in 2015 and help inspire the next generation,” Harper said, directing her comments at Lang. According to the organizing committee for the World Cup, Shuéme was inspired by the “elegance and strength of the women’s game.” Her white colour is meant to be a symbol of peace and fair play. The many players who were part of the announcement were all girls soccer players, ages five to 11. They came from the Cumberland United, Gloucester Dragons, Ottawa Royals, Rockland United, West Carleton, Hull and Gatineau soccer clubs.

Rideau Canoe Club to host 2015 national championships Brier Dodge brier.dodge@metroland.com

Sports - The Rideau Canoe Club will host the 2015 Canadian Sprint CanoeKayak Championships at Mooney’s Bay. The Aug. 25 to 29 festival will lead into the Aug. 30 Canadian Master’s Championships, known as the CanMas. The Ottawa location was announced at the Rideau Canoe Club on June 23 by CanoeKayak Canada domestic development director John Edwards, with Mayor Jim Watson and Rideau Canoe Club coaches and paddlers by his side. The championships are expected to bring in 1,200 paddlers, with an additional 500 adults for the CanMas. Edwards said canoe and kayak are some of Canada’s top Olympic sports, and the Rideau Canoe Club has produced quite a few Olympians

a great opportunity to show off our city.” Paddlers and coaches at the Rideau Canoe Club were

excited that they would be the host club for the championships, which the club exclusively hosted for 20

years, from 1947-66. “These championships are known as the best run regatta in the world, the most inclusive regatta in the world, the most competitive regatta in the world,” said coach Ian Mortimer. “But when these championships come home, it’s a little bit special.” Mortimer revisited some of the club’s history, from the first clubhouse at the current Canal Ritz site which literally fell into the canal, to the brand new clubhouse the club built at the current Hog’s Back site. Athletes will have a home water advantage, surrounded by their familiar training site and family and friends. Madeline Schmidt, a junior world medalist, said she won her first national medal in 2008 at home at the Rideau. “It was an unreal moment to be at home on the podium,” she said. “There’s nothing as cool as competing in

front of a home crowd.” Ian’s brother Angus Mortimer, an Olympian, said paddling all over the world has taught him how lucky the Rideau Canoe paddlers are to have such an excellent site such as Mooney’s Bay as a home base. “It’s always a blast to compete at home and have a home water advantage,” he said. At last year’s nationals, Rideau finished second in the overall club title, known as the Burgee. The club, which fields a highly competitive team on the national scene every year, would usually send about 45 paddlers to nationals. With the home advantage, Ian expects about 60 paddlers to compete in the 2015 nationals at home. Ian said the goal is to bring back the Burgee, a flag that the club would proudly fly for the eighth time in club history.

Stamp of approval Former Ottawa Rough Rider Russ Jackson helps unveil a new Ottawa RedBlacks Canada Post stamp bearing his likeness on June 19. The stamp is part of the commemorative Canadian Football League stamps originally issued in 2012, which pays tribute to legendary stories and players who make up the history of the league. A member of the Canadian Football Hall of Fame and Canada Sports Hall of Fame, Jackson said although the stamp only features his image, he believes it represents all of Ottawa’s current and former football players and says how important the game is to this city.

CanAm commissioner Miles Wolff announced a 10-year agreement between the city and the new Ottawa Champions on June 16. The team will play out of the Ottawa Stadium.

Champions to take a swing at baseball in the capital Jennifer McIntosh jennifer.mcintosh@metroland.com

News - Ottawa’s baseball team will be champions before they even play their first game. Mayor Jim Watson, CanAm Commissioner Miles Wolff and David Gourlay, the club’s president announced the name at the Ottawa Stadium on June 16. The city of Ottawa signed a 10-year agreement with the newly dubbed Ottawa Champions, with the intent of providing stability for the sport and bringing more fans to the under-utilized facility. The team will begin play in May 2015 and join established CanAm teams in Quebec City, Trois Rivières, Rockland, NY and New Jersey. “I fell in love with Ottawa and I promised to come back and not leave until we do it right,” Wolff said in a press release. “We really look forward

to the Champions playing ball in Ottawa next spring and staying for the long run.” The name of the club comes from the group called The Champions for Ottawa Baseball. The group was formed in Feb. 9, 2012 after the city announced an agreement-in-principle with the Beacon Sports Capital Partners to bring a double-A professional baseball franchise to the Ottawa Stadium. Gourlay said on the group’s Facebook page that the new name might take some criticism, but urged fans to concentrate on the good news for the time being. “A fantastic morning at the Ballpark – much will be said over the coming days that baseball will or will not work now, the new team name is good or not,” the post reads. “I certainly welcome the discussion as the new President, a role I embrace. But for the

moment we can celebrate success as the Champions for Ottawa Baseball in ensuring that our community will see the game we believe belongs here in 2015. My thanks to all for your support, friendship – from the events we had to deposits and donations for the Miracle League of Ottawa. We have succeeded.” The team will look for partners and suppliers to leverage the city’s initial investment in the Champions. The announcement of the club’s name also kicked off a logo design contest. “The Champions will become a strong reflection of our community,” Gourlay said. “We will focus on building partnerships to ensure families and baseball fans across the city enjoy the best possible experience at the ballpark while providing them an affordable and fun experience in the summer months.”

Former sports reporter pens book honouring Expos Team went from contenders to departure from Montreal in just 10 years jennifer.mcintosh@metroland.com

News - Danny Gallagher, who went from playing first base for the Ottawa-Nepean Canadians in 1979 to working as an Ottawa Journal sports reporter, is now chronicling the Montreal Expos. The book is entitled Ecstasy to Agony: the 1994 Montreal Expos: How the Best Team in Baseball Ended Up in Washington 10 Years Later. It traces the fortunes of the Expos from that day in 1989 when the organization’s original owner Charles Bronfman decided to sell the team and step away from baseball, through to the team’s climb to glory in 1994 and then its final descent into oblivion ten years later. Written by Galla-

gher and Bill Young – authors of the best-selling Remember the Montreal Expos, the story starts with a foreword by award-winning Toronto Sun baseball columnist Bob Elliott. The book provides highlights of the 1994 season, including Pedro Martinez’s near-perfect game April 13, Cliff Floyd’s golf-shot homer off of Greg Maddux June 27, Marquis Grissom’s insidethe-park, walk-off homer Aug. 1. “The team was so good,” Gallagher said. “They were so confident of winning every game. It didn’t matter if they were behind 5-0, they could come back.” COMMISSIONER

Gallagher said he handled a lot of the interviews, includ-

ing the commissioner during the 1994 players strike. “There were 32 players that donned the uniform that year and I talked to 26 of them,” Gallagher said, adding he started compiling contacts in the fall of 2010. “It was a labour of love,” he said. “I tried to get a hold of players and executives from other teams as well to get a different perspective.” Gallagher said he covered the team for a variety of publications from 1988 to 1994. “This is my third book on the Expos,” he said. Gallagher said even though baseball may be as American as apple pie, the number of Canadian players in the major leagues has quadrupled since the ’70s. He credits the growth the Expos and the Toronto Blue Jays.

“Parents are getting their kids to play younger and their skills are growing as they get older to play for scholarships in college,” he said. “There’s a lot of Canadian talent out there.” The book was printed by Scoop Press in 2013, but the authors will be making stops during June and July in at the Indigo Barrhaven in the Riocan Marketplace, the Coles in the Bayshore Shopping Centre and Coles in the Merivale Mall, for dates and times, visit www.chapters.indigo.ca.

Pet Adoptions ZOEY (A167821 )

Zoey (A167821) is a sweet Siberian husky mix looking for her happily ever after! This gentle pup enjoys playing with canine friends who share her low-key approach. Zoey may play shy at first but once she’s comfortable with new friends she will shower them with affection. Zoey would blossom with a loving and confident owner who can help her come out of her shell! She’d do best in an adult home with owners who can take her on regular walks and provide her with plenty of exercise to stay healthy! For more information on Zoey and all our adoptable animals, stop by the OHS at 245 West Hunt Club Rd. Check out our website at ottawahumane.ca to see photos and descriptions of the animals available for adoption.

Breezy’s case will redefine animal welfare By now, most have heard the outcome of sentencing in the Breezy case. Steven Helfer, 24, pleaded guilty in December to animal cruelty for the attack on Breezy, a young lab-cross, in addition to other crimes, and was in court for sentencing on June 19. Helfer received a two-year sentence, will not be allowed to own an animal for 25 years, and will be on probation for three years. This is the longest sentence seen in Ottawa and the longest seen in Canada for animal abuse. How do we feel at the Ottawa Humane Society? Relieved. There are so many people who devoted so much to Breezy. Our outstanding Rescue and Investigation Services team, who first responded to the crime and supported the investigation are second to none. Our animal

care team, veterinary partners and many volunteers gave their all to bring Breezy back from the brink. Our first-rate adoption staff used their considerable talents to find the perfect home to meet Breezy’s special needs. Of course, dozens of animals are rescued and cared for every day by OHS staff and volunteers. None of them can be here for the animals without our committed supporters. This has been a long journey and an emotional one for OHS staff and volunteers. Seasoned staff were very shaken by this case. Our community was shaken too. The outrage for the crime and concern for the innocent victim surprised even us. Something changed. The violence of this crime shocked Ottawa as no other. Even those not particularly devoted to animals and their welfare seemed to recognize

that this crime meant something bigger. The community rallied behind Breezy like no animal before. It was the case that would define the next phase of animal welfare. Our community is more aware of what happens to animals in our midst and wants change. We all hoped and prayed for Breezy when we weren’t sure she would live. We desperately wanted a happy ending for her. And she got it in the form of a new, loving home. We were all anxious about the legal outcome. We all needed to know that this crime would not go unpunished. We needed to know because of what it would mean about our community if it did. Justice needed to happen. We have closure, but our eyes are opened.

Please note: The Ottawa Humane Society has many other companion animals available for adoption. Featured animals are adopted quickly!

Irish sport gains foothold with children in Ottawa Adam Kveton adam.kveton@metroland.com

Sports - Ireland’s most popular game has taken root in Beaverbrook, where an Irish coach and his family have started an introductory camp for Gaelic football. Over the past several weeks, children ages five to 12 have been participating in Kanata’s first-ever Gaelic football camp, which has attracted double the number of children expected. The game combines aspects of soccer, basketball, football and volleyball and is played on a grass field. Players carry what looks and feels like a heavy volleyball a total of four steps before passing the ball with

a palm bump or kick as both teams of up to 15 players try to score points by passing the ball through a goal or between a set of uprights. Gaelic football coach and native of Ireland, Noel McGinnity, has spearheaded the effort, with the help of his family and local parents. But it was the hope that his young children might grow up playing the sport he played as a child in Ireland that inspired the effort. McGinnity moved to Ottawa in 2000, and didn’t expect there to be much of a Gaelic football presence. Becoming a member of the Ottawa Gaels, he later became the group’s youth development officer after helping get

Gaelic football introduced into the Ottawa Catholic School Board’s Grade 7 and 8 physical education curriculums. While McGinnity has been working to introduce more kids to the game across Ottawa, this effort is the first attempt to introduce kids of such a young age in a specific community and who have no past experience with the game. The response has been greater than he was prepared for, said McGinnity. “We were saying at the start, if we could get 20 kids together, that would be great; but we got 45, so we pretty much exceeded what we wanted to do,” ADAM KVETON/METROLAND he said. A young Gaelic football player tries to get past coach and Irish native Noel McGinnity See CAMP, page 43

Gaelic football camp attracts more kids than expected Continued from page 41

The camp had so many more kids than expected that McGinnity had to call in back up from the governing body of Gaelic football in Ireland. “We said, ‘Listen, we won’t be able to handle this,’” said McGinnity. In response, the Gaelic Athletic Association sent Tom Murphy, a certified coach from County Carlow, Ireland. Vinny Laforest, 10, Aislin McBurney, 8, and Jasmine MacEwan, 9, are all taking part in the camp where they were introduced to the game for the first time. “I think it’s really fun,” said both Aislin and Vinny. “You get a lot of exercise,” said Vinny, adding that he enjoys how complex it is.

Jasmine agreed, saying she joined the camp in the hopes that it would help her with school sports like soccer and basketball. McGinnity is planning a second camp for this summer, as well as a trip to New York where thousands of kids from U6 to U18 will compete in the Continental Youth Championships of Gaelic sports. Teams of U8, U10 and U12 players from Beaverbrook will be sent down, said McGinnity, adding that it will be a great experience for the kids to see the game played by people with more experience. To help fund the trip, the Ottawa Gaels’ annual golf tournament will be held in support of youth football development this year. The event will take place

on July 12 at the Irish Hills Golf and Country Club on 3248 Carp Rd. The cost per player to register is $120. The Gaels will also be hosting their first-annual pig roast on July 19. A summer camp for children ages five to 12 will be taking place from July 14 to 18. For more information, go to ottawagaels.ca/ottawagaels-gaelic-football-summer-camp/. Mcginnity said he is excited by the response to this year’s camp, and that he hopes it grows the presence of Gaelic football in Ottawa. “Our aim is to have a flourishing league going here,” said McGinnity. “We want to get Gaelic football established as a sport in Ottawa.”

Paralympic dreams alive for local cyclist Brier Dodge brier.dodge@metroland.com

Sports - Kevin Frost, a deaf-blind speed skater from Orléans, has set himself another athletic goal: qualifying for the Paralympics. Speed skating is not currently a Paralympic sport, but Frost has competed at an international level. He has also rowed and participated in track and field at a competitive level. In his first year of paracycling, he’s qualified for the national championship, being held June 26 to 29 in Lac-Megantic, Que. Frost is legally blind and legally deaf, but does have some hearing and seeing abilities that allow him to be independent and pursue his goals. He was tested last summer by the national governing body to see if he was a good fit. Because of his speed skating, they already knew what classification he would be in – a category

sess the engine” said his coach, Arnaud Litou, the Canadian national paracycling coach. “He was quite powerful,

probably thanks to his speed skating experience and the training he’s been doing,” Litou said.

Frost trained indoors at home through the winter, and got on the bike outside in the early spring. The competition is done on tandem bicycles, with an elitelevel pilot in the front seat, and paracyclist in the back seat. Frost is competing with Quebec cyclist Jean-Sebatien Perron as his pilot. “Knock on wood, we’re a pretty amazing match,” Frost said. “We’ve already done a few races; it’s helping us look forward. I sit in the back – if I sat in the front we’d be in the river.” Perron will also compete in the able-bodied division road race, which is being held the day after the paracycling event. The two use a system so Perron can speak to Frost through his hearing aids throughout the race. The most important thing for the two is staying in sync and pedaling at the same time. “Any move I make, we’ve really got to synchronize and

work together to be aerodynamic and efficient ,” Frost said. They will compete in the 30kilometre time trial, and an 86km road race later in the event. To train, they’ve been working out twice a week, using the Aviation Parkway on Thursday evenings to get ready for the time trial, and longer races on weekends. They also train independently, with most of Frost’s training done at home. The ultimate goal is to qualify for the 2016 Paralympics in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. But for now, Frost is looking to his first ever national cycling championships to land a top the podium. “Canadian tandem athletes are pretty strong and shining on the international scene,” Litou said. “That said, I think they have a good chance in the time trial on June 26. We’re looking forward to seeing Kevin on the podium.”

CHARITABLE GIVING WITH LIFE INSURANCE POLICIES - A WIN-WIN FOR BOTH FAMILY AND CHARITIES The use of life insurance in the context of charitable gifting at death will appeal to those who want to reduce or eliminate taxes at death and/or have a strong desire to make a larger bequest to one or more charities.

Life insurance is a popular, practical way to make a significant gift to CHEO. Your donation will be wisely administered through investments which will provide a stable source of income to CHEO for years to come. There are three main methods you can gift life insurance: by making a bequest of the proceeds of a life insurance policy through your Will; donating the policy during your lifetime at fair market value; or by naming CHEO as beneficiary and remaining as policy owner.

Here is a scenario where a mother owns purchase a permanent life insurance policy a family business and wishes to gift the for $500,000 and donate the proceeds to shares to her adult children through a charity through her Will. provision in her Will. She wants to eliminate This is a win-win for both her family and capital gains taxes of the shares payable the charity. She will own the policy during at her death. The taxable capital gains her lifetime and name her estate as policy reportable on the deemed disposition of beneficiary. She will direct that a gift in an shares on death is $500,000 and tax owing amount equal to the life insurance proceeds on this amount is $230,000 (base on a be paid to a charity named in the Will.

the estate value is preserved. In this case, premiums for the life insurance policy are paid with a relatively small percentage of the funds that would otherwise have been used to pay taxes owing. The use of life insurance in the context of charitable gifting at death will appeal to those who want to reduce or eliminate taxes at death and/or have a strong desire to make a larger bequest to one or more charities. This should be considered in the bigger context of planned giving options available to donors both during their lifetime and at death.

Baked berry and chocolate pancake a decadent treat Lifestyle - Take advantage of the summer’s berries. Stir in chocolate and create a decadent baked pancake, topped with whipped cream and a drizzle of maple syrup. Preparation time: 10 minutes. Baking time: 23 to 25 minutes. Serves four to six. INGREDIENTS

• 20 ml (4 tsp) butter • 175 ml (3/4 cup) milk • 3 eggs • 7 ml (1-1/2 tsp) vanilla • 175 ml (3/4 cup) all-purpose flour • 25 ml (2 tbsp) granulated sugar • 1 ml (1/4 tsp) salt • 500 ml (2 cups) mixed berries, such as raspberries, blueberries

or quartered strawberries • 50 ml (1/4 cup) chocolate chips • 125 ml (1/2 cup) whipping cream • maple syrup PREPARATION

In a 25-centimetre (10inch) glass pie plate, melt the butter in a 200 C (400 F) oven. Meanwhile, in a medium bowl, whisk together the milk, eggs and 5 ml (1 tsp) of the vanilla. Whisk in the flour, sugar and salt as smoothly as possible -- a few lumps are fine. Stir in half of the berries and all of the chocolate chips. Tilt the pie plate so that “That was way to easy!”

the butter coats the bottom and sides. Pour the batter into the pie plate, making sure the berries are evenly distributed. Bake in a 200 C (400 F) oven until the sides are puffy and a deep golden brown -about 23 to 25 minutes. Meanwhile, whip the cream with the remaining vanilla. Remove the pancake from the oven and serve immediately, as it falls quickly. To serve, cut it into wedges. Add a dollop of whipped cream to each wedge. Scatter the wedges with the remaining berries and a drizzle of maple syrup. Foodland Ontario “I just clicked and saved 90%”

Anticipation ran high for delivery of report cards

T

his time of year, as the last school term was coming to a close, my stomach churned from the time I put my foot in the door at the Northcote School until that fateful day when Miss Crosby handed out the report cards. I was convinced I had failed every exam, and would be right back sitting in the very same seat when school started again in September. Miss Crosby’s face gave nothing away. She treated the last day like every other day, and as if handing out report cards were an everyday occurrence. Little did she know, or if she did, she showed no sign, but every one of us wished we could just sleep away that last

MARY COOK Memories day of school. The last day at the Northcote School was set apart by the very tenseness in the air, and every one of us, the entire school, came that morning as if we were dressed for a church picnic. We had been scrubbed within an inch of

our lives, and everyone, even Two-Mile Herman, who never darkened a church door, looked like we were all headed for a Sunday morning service. And it wasn’t only getting our report cards that put us all on edge. It was the responsibility of the teacher which meant

Ottawa South News - Thursday, June 26, 2014

of course, every one of her 18 pupils, to make sure the school room had been scrubbed from top to bottom, the windows cleaned, the blackboards shining, and of course, our desks cleaned out. It would take days, because there were no caretakers or janitors back then, just the hands of the teacher and her pupils. So by the time the last day rolled around, the school was shining, most of our books had been removed from our desk drawer and taken home, and the blackboards were washed and ready for September. Then that fateful day arrived. The day when we would know if we had passed. There were the usual morning devotions, which always included long purposeful prayers to guide us through the summer. Heaven forbid that we would go off into summer without the proper spiritual send-off. And Miss Crosby would finish reading us the last couple of chapters in the books she had been bringing to school every Friday. It could be something like Gulliver’s Travels, or Huckleberry Finn, and rather than leave us hanging over the summer wondering about the ending, Miss Crosby would polish off the book on that last day while we sat in morbid anticipation as we waited for the hour when we would be handed those dreaded report cards. Just like the foolscap pads that sat on the corner of her desk on the days of the exams, the report cards were the first thing we spotting when we came into the school at nine in the morning. There they were,

just like death sentences. All in a neat pile on the left hand corner of that old oak desk. It was a challenge to sit and listen to the last of the story book, as we anticipated the handing out of the report cards. But of course, even if we didn’t, we had to look like we were absorbing every last word coming out of Miss Crosby’s mouth. There wasn’t an eye in the Northcote School that wasn’t glued to the neat little pile of white fold -over cards. And always, I silently wished I had paid more attention, and tried harder, or given more thought to the exams just past. But it was too late now, the die was cast. Of course, Miss Crosby made us suffer even more, by demanding that our feet be planted firmly on the floor, under our desks, with our hands folded on top. She would walk slowly over to the side windows and survey the entire classroom, spending many minutes looking at each one of us in turn. It didn’t matter really. Nothing mattered. It was too late. The report cards were already sitting on the corner of her desk. There was nothing in the world that could change a word on them. And then, as if she all the time in the world, she would walk with great deliberation over to her desk. I had only recently learned to tell the time, and I would glance up at the old CPR clock, and see the hands about to reach the magic hour. The report cards had to be handed out just minutes before we were excused from school.

I knew, since I was the youngest in the school, that I would be the first to get a report card. I certainly didn’t think it was any privilege to be first -- I would have much preferred to be last. Miss Crosby walked up and down the aisles placing the cards precisely in the middle of the top of our desks, just above where our hands were folded. Of course, we were forbidden to lay a finger on the cards until we were told to do so. My eyes were glued to mine like a magnet. When Miss Crosby had handed out the last card, she moved slowly back to her desk, and all she did was give one deep nod, and that was the signal that we could open our report cards. Miss Crosby, knowing of course, that I had yet to learn how to write, printed on my card. And there it was -- I had passed. I would be out of Primer Book and into Junior First come September. I had the deepest urge to let out a war-hoop, but of course, that would be unheard of in Miss Crosby’s Northcote School. Selfishly, I could care little what the fate was of the other pupils. But I was filled with love for Miss Crosby who had nursed me through that first year of school, and even though the whole summer loomed ahead, filled with swims in the Bonnechere, picnics, sleeping under the stars in a tent, and all the other joys of those warm days, I couldn’t wait to get back to school in September. All because of that little folded-over white card on Miss Crosby’s desk.

OC Transpo to hire first ever chief safety officer Laura Mueller laura.mueller@metroland.com

News - OC Transpo is on the hunt for a chief safety ofďŹ cer after a review recommended creating the position. The transit commission received the results of an independent review of the system’s safety and security, which was conducted by the American Public Transportation Association from March 18 to 21. OC Transpo general manager John Manconi said it will take a few months to hire someone for the new role, but the chief safety ofďŹ cer would report directly to him. Task number one will be developing a comprehensive safety program for the bus and light-rail system – something the transportation association panel recommended. Next, OC Transpo will look at whether it should increase the number of special constables, who enforce safety and security as they patrol the transit system. There are currently 41 constables and the panel said there isn’t a “magic numberâ€? for how many are needed, but all panel members agreed the department was “under resourced.â€? Manconi didn’t commit to adding more constables, but said OC Transpo will be using a tool sug-

gested by the panel which looks are the size and needs of transit systems and how much security coverage is needed and in which locations. “We’re going to look at all those variables ... and we’ll look at our implementation plan for the LRT and phase things in and put it through the budget process if we need additional resources,â€? he said. The panel also suggested OC Transpo phase out 10 or so fare inspectors, another type of patroller, and redirect those resources towards adding special constables. That will make sense as the bulk of transit ridership will shift to LRT, which will use fare control gates, reducing the need to enforce proof of fare payment. The panel applauded OC Transpo for its current safety and security efforts, including de-escalation training for drivers who encounter conicts with passengers, safe stop and night stop programs, a 24-hour transit communications centre, outreach efforts such as the safety culture working group and equipment such as emergency call boxes, alarms at the back of buses and closed-circuit cameras.

FILE

While an independent review found that OC Transpo has some good safety and security initiatives, the programs need to be brought into a cohesive safety plan and the transit agency needs more staff – and better communication – to support safety initiatives.

Cameras meant for passenger safety not spying: OC Transpo Continued from page 49

But the panel said OC Transpo needs to do more to communicate those efforts to the public and ensure riders know all the measures that are in place to increase security, as well as how to use them. The panel pointed to a recent move to promote the safe stop program, which allows riders to request a stop closer to their destination after 9 p.m.,

as a positive step. Better communication with the public about incidents and how to report concerns back to OC Transpo is another area the agency needs to strengthen, the panel found. CULTURE OF SAFETY

Those efforts are important to create a culture of community safety on the system, where riders look out for

Manconi assured the commission and Amalgamated Transit Union Local 279 president Craig Watson the cameras would be used to ensure safety of passengers and operators – not to spy on drivers like “Big Brother.�

Ottawa South News - Thursday, June 26, 2014

Police, paramedics injured in training exercise in Kanata Denis Armstrong, Blair Edwards, Laura Mueller and Lucy Scholey blair.edwards@metroland.com

News – Two Ottawa police officers and three paramedics were injured – two seriously – in an explosion during a training exercise in Kanata on June 18. Two tactical paramedics in their 30s were seriously injured with second-degree burns to the face, arms and legs. They were initially treated at the Queensway Carleton hospital, and were later transferred to the critical care unit of the General Hospital where they were intubated to prevent pulmonary swelling after inhaling hot explosive gases, said Ottawa’s Chief of Paramedic Services Anthony Di Monte at a news conference Wednesday afternoon. Their injuries are not considered life threatening, he added. The injured were first treated by paramedics who were also taking part in the training exercise. The two police officers sustained minor injuries. Ottawa police Chief Charles Bordeleau said the use of explosives in training exercises is a “regular part of operations” and wouldn’t comment on what went wrong, saying that the Ontario’s Special Investigations Unit (SIU) and the Ministry of

BLAIR EDWARDS/METROLAND

Police Chief Charles Bordeleau speaks with reporters along March Road across from where three paramedics and two police officers were injured in a training exercise on June 18 in Kanata. Labour were called in to investigate because civilians – the paramedics – sustained injuries during a police activity. The explosion occurred just after 10 a.m., at the north end of March Road, where police and the RCMP were conducting entry training using small-grade explosives, resulting in minor injuries to two police officers

and one paramedic and serious injuries to two paramedics. “Their injuries are serious in nature but I’m told they will recover,” said Bordeleau. “(The injured paramedics and officers) were in proximity of the detonation and the ensuing gases that were released,” said Bordeleau during a press conference following the train-

ing accident. “Our thoughts are with them right now to make sure that they recover from their injuries.” The training had been taking place for about a week at what appeared to be an abandoned house set back from the road at the corner of March and Maxwell Bridge roads. Paramedic gear and train-

ing equipment were scattered around the scene, where approximately 40 officers were taking part in the training exercise. “We work very closely with the RCMP in our chemical, biological, radiological and nuclear- response teams; that includes explosives as well,” said Bordeleau. “The paramedics are there in order to support the officers during the training exercise, but also they work closely with our Ottawa police officers and the RCMP when we’re doing operations. “This is part of regular operations that our officers have this tool available to them to assist them in breaching doors,” said Bordeleau. “What type of explosives, how they were detonated I can’t comment because that will be part of the special investigations unit investigation.” The special investigations unit has assigned four investigators and two forensic investigators to the case. Police alerted neighbouring businesses about the training exercise earlier last week. Allison Rodgers, manager of Pet Valu, said a police officer had visited businesses in the area to warn there might be noise related to the training. “I heard the explosion for sure. The windows shook and

the lights were all rattling,” she said. “I just assumed it was part of the training, but it was a lot louder than some of the explosions during training this week.” Rodgers said patrons outside in the parking lot rushed toward shops in the plaza when the explosion occurred. Some were scared and confused and wanted to know what was going on, she said. “I heard the sound ‘boom’ and that was it,” said Phat Sok, an employee of Browns Cleaners, located in a mall across the street from where the training exercise took place. “Before that they told me don’t worry, they’re training. That’s why I didn’t worry when I heard the sound. “After that I saw a lot of police cars.” While joint training exercises are common, injuries that require hospital attention are not, according to both emergency services. The Ministry of Labour will be investigating along with Ottawa Police Service District Investigators. The Ottawa police say the province’s special investigations unit has invoked its mandate and is probing the incident. Metro/Metroland News Service
