No end in sight to cabbies’ protest Erin McCracken

erin.mccracken@metroland.com

Taxi drivers took their protest against an increase in airport dispatch fees to the Airport Parkway earlier this week, further slowing commute times as they continued to signal their outrage over what they feel is an unfair hike in their cost of doing business.

Dozens of cabbies, some

with “locked out” signs attached to the front of their vehicles, slowly paraded in both directions along the parkway between Hunt Club Road and Uplands Drive at the start of the Monday afternoon commute, and then took their protest to their dispatch company’s headquarters in Overbrook on Tuesday.

It’s the latest in a series of measures they have been spearheading since Aug. 11, coinciding with the day the airport cab drivers were to pay Coventry Connections – a taxi management company that also provides dispatch services to taxi companies – new dispatch fee rates the company negotiated with the Ottawa International Airport Authority.

Calling the fees “very exorbitant to us in this day and age,” Harry Ghadban, the Unifor union national representative speaking for the airport drivers, said he could understand a fee increase to reflect rising airport operating costs “but to go and say we want to more than triple the rates to provide a service to their passengers is ludicrous.”

The fee hike, negotiated within the past six months, has not been accepted or paid by the Ottawa airport taxi drivers, who have been in a legal strike position since Aug. 1.

“In that agreement, it now requires drivers to pay roughly $4.50 for a pickup. It used to be around $2. It is now more in line with what’s happening across North America,” said Daniel Coates, spokesperson for Coventry Connections. “This is a typical fee you see at most airports across North America, so we’re only catching up.”

But Ghadban argues the dispatch fee is not typical of other airports, nor are fares picked up at the airport dispatched through Coventry.

He said under the previous contract, drivers each paid $345 plus HST per month to Coventry, regardless of the number of fares they picked up. Under the new contract, the drivers would each be required to pay about $1,335, based on the estimated 40,000 fares that come from the airport each month.

“They don’t pay per fare now. This is just a new business model that they’ve tried to introduce as a way to quadruple the costs,” Ghadban said, speaking on behalf of 260 airport fleet drivers operating 150 taxis.

Drivers previously rejected the idea of recouping the cost through their customers, saying they are already having to compete with illegal cab operators who are undercutting their rates.

“So we can’t go to people now and say we want to increase each fare by $5 when people like Uber are undercutting us by $10 or $15 a trip because they don’t have the insurance costs and the licensing costs and the background checks,” Ghadban said.

Taxi drivers countered with an offer to pay an increase of 15.5 per cent or $400 a month, but this was

rejected.

Coates said the upset drivers are also protesting another change to the contract that now gives two other local cab companies the right to pick up customers at the arrivals terminal.

Previously, only the airport taxi fleet could provide this pick-up service.

“But because we have an influx of more and more passengers coming to Ottawa with no more plates being given out by the city, this new agreement also allows for Blueline and Capital taxis (both of which are dispatched by Coventry) to access those same passengers to make sure we’re meeting the demand that exists,” Coates said.

The slow-moving protest along the Airport Parkway and down to the Coventry headquarters comes on the heels of an emergency court injunction the airport authority was granted, and that came into effect on Aug. 15, to curb the actions of the protesting cab drivers on airport property.

Tempers flared the first day of the protest on Aug. 11, when airport drivers sparred with drivers from other cab companies, who were allowed to pick up customers during the protest.

The airport drivers say Coventry essentially locked them out that day by disabling their transponders that allow them to open the airport gates and pick up customers at the door to the terminal.

The airport authority said the injunction was necessary to curb the escalating dispute.

The injunction restricts the number of protesting drivers to 20 inside a barricaded area at the airport terminal, limits the number of taxis driving in protest to 10 and prohibits drivers from honking horns and using megaphones.

“The safety and security of our passengers, employees and partners is not something that we will compromise,” Mark Laroche, airport authority president and chief executive, said in a statement.

“While we respect the drivers’ right to protest, our primary concern is ensuring that our passengers have unimpeded access to the services and transportation options that suit their needs.”

Laroche encouraged Coventry Connections and the airport fleet drivers to return to the bargaining table.

When Coates was asked by email to elaborate on the terms of the contract, Ashlea McGrath, another company spokesperson, said Coventry is “unable to provide any further detail at this time as there are still sensitive discussions going on at this point.”

Pipeline’s risks outweigh benefits, OEB report finds Energy East project could threaten Rideau, Ottawa rivers, local leaders say Emma Jackson emma.jackson@metroland.com

Some local leaders are hoping a report from the Ontario Energy Board will take the steam out of a proposal to bring crude oil through the Ottawa Valley.

TransCanada’s Energy East pipeline proposal would convert about 3,000 kilometres of natural gas pipeline to instead carry diluted bitumen from the Alberta oil sands to refineries on the east coast.

Along the way, the pipeline would skirt or cross a number of waterways in Ontario, including the Rideau, Madawaska and Ottawa Rivers, and the Oxford-Marsh and Nepean aquifers south of the capital.

TransCanada has long touted the economic benefits of the project, but the provincial energy regulator’s report released Aug. 13 found that safety and environmental risks could vastly outweigh any of the “modest” economic benefits Ontario would see

from the project.

“As with all pipelines, the benefits will largely accrue to the region producing the goods … and the region taking the goods out of it,” the report said. “This leads to an imbalance between the economic and environmental risks of the project, and the expected benefits for Ontarians.”

The pipeline will create jobs, particularly during construction, but not enough to have a huge economic impact in the province, according to the OEB. And any modest gains could be offset by the fact that natural gas prices could rise by as much as 12 per cent during winter months between 2016 and 2035.

That’s because converting the pipeline to carry crude oil will effectively reduce natural gas supply, particularly for eastern Ontario.

And the safety risks could be costly, too, both in monetary terms and in environmental damage.

The OEB has added a greenhouse gas emission analysis to its report

mandate, after it was raised as a major concern time and again at public consultations. Another big concern from residents was the fear that bitumen is more toxic and more difficult to clean up in the event of a spill – an incident that could send enough oil to fill an Olympic swimming pool into the Ottawa Valley’s drinking water supply.

The proposed route nears the Ottawa River downstream from the city’s drinking water intake, the report found.

RISKY BUSINESS

The report’s dire findings have got some local leaders hopeful the province will advocate for the route to be changed – or even cancelled.

“We’re assuming with this report the provincial government cannot support this project,” said Graham Saul, executive director of Ecology Ottawa. “The OEB emphasized there were serious risks, not just environmental risks, and they clearly stated those risks outweigh the benefits.”

Ottawa South MPP John Fraser certainly seemed swayed by the report, which his government commissioned, although the province has yet

to say if it will support or reject the project when it acts as an intervener at the National Energy Board hearings sometime next year.

Calling the report “a win for our environment and for the Rideau River,” Fraser said the document gives voice to serious safety and environmental concerns raised by residents that might otherwise have been silenced.

“We’ve looked around the world to see the devastating impacts of spills,” Fraser said. “We don’t want 30 or 40 years from now (to have) the next generation – our grandchildren, our great grandchildren – going, ‘What were they thinking?’

“The Rideau River is a UNESCO world heritage site and it runs through our city and through a large portion of eastern Ontario, and not only is it there for recreation and people’s enjoyment, but people depend on it for their livelihood,” he said.

Capital Coun. David Chernushenko, who chairs the city’s environment committee, is personally against the pipeline, and has long argued that the broader climate change debate must be part of the impact assessment of the project.

“Initially we were not talking

“We’ve looked around the world to see the devastating impacts of spills. We don’t want 30 or 40 years from now (to have) the next generation – our grandchildren, our great grandchildren – going, ‘What were they thinking?’ ” OTTAWA SOUTH MPP JOAHN FRASER

about whether we should be consuming oil in the first place,” Chernushenko said.

The City of Ottawa has yet to take an official stance on the project, although council sent a letter to the National Energy Board outlining the city’s concerns with regard to emergency preparedness, safety and drinking water protection.

Chernushenko said the city won’t be an official intervener in the hearings next year.

Good hearing but trouble with conversation?

A lot of people have trouble catching what people say, especially in group situations, despite having good hearing. What a lot of people don’t know is that this may be caused by damage to the so-called motor or amplifier function of special cells in the ear. A new type of hearing aid can help balance this out.

A great many people have difficulty hearing others clearly on a daily basis. Bad acoustics, unclear pronunciation, background noise and music often make it challenging to catch what people say. This results in them having to repeatedly ask questions, straining to hear and perhaps increasingly avoiding discussions in large groups. As mentioned earlier, this may be caused by malfunctions in special cells in the ear. According to a theory proposed by hearing researchers, “motor cells” are a type of hair cell responsible for amplifying quiet sounds. They vibrate up to 20,000 times per second. If these hair cells do not work properly then quiet

a good solution for most people.

This improvement in hearing can be achieved for some clients through the new Phonak Audéo V’s hearing aids. This cutting-edge hearing technology comes in a miniature casing that can significantly enhance the user’s ability to hear speech in company. The hearing aids attune to the person you are speaking to and can also recognize if ambient noise increases in the background.

Hair cells in the ear move very rapidly and can act as an amplifier or dampener. If these cells are damaged, they can no longer properly amplify speech and dampen loud noises.

Connect Hearing is currently looking to improve hearing for people who experience these challenges and want to try this new technology.

Ottawa South News - Thursday, August 20, 2015

NSP-WNTD-OEMC

If dodgeball and archery had a baby, its name would be archery tag.

Three local entrepreneurs have brought the growing sport to Ottawa in the city’s first archery tag arena called Archery Games.

The game, which was invented in the United States, recently saw its popularity in Toronto skyrocket, as archery tag facilities started popping up all over the GTA. “People are looking for alternative ways of having fun,” said Brian Seto, one of the owners of Archery Games.

“I’m always looking for new things to do, and this definitely falls right up that alley.”

Seto, and his partners Ramsey Jackson and Qi Hu, are set to open their brand new 8,000-square-foot facility in the south end at 1860 Bank Street, Unit # 3B on the weekend of Aug. 21.

The game is played by teams of six to 10 people,

armed with bows and arrows with foam tips.

Archery tag follows similar rules to dodgeball. Players are eliminated from the game when they are hit by an opponent’s arrows. But if a player catches an arrow, the shooter is out and one of their eliminated teammates can come back into the game.

The sport is played with masks on and is less painful than paintball, according to Jackson. The arrows do not leave welts when they make contact and hurt as much as having a tennis ball thrown at you, Jackson added.

“While it’s similar to a lot of other tactical games, it’s totally a different type of game,” he said.

“With paintball, you hide and spray bullets at each other, but with this game you only have one shot, because you’re only holding one arrow at a time. So it’s more about being stealthy and accurate and less about brute force.”

The owners first leased their space to build an escape room

facility, but soon realized they had enough space to do more than just that. Escape rooms are one of the latest crazes in adult entertainment, in which a group of people is locked in a room and find their way out by solving a puzzle.

When the trio discovered archery tag and tried it out in Toronto, they decided bringing the new sport to Ottawa would be a good way of diversifying their space.

Hedging their bets on both endeavours would also give the entrepreneurs something to fall back on if one of the ventures was not as profitable, Jackson said.

“We really didn’t want to abandon escape rooms, because we know we can do something really cool, but instead of waiting to slowly build it up we thought we should take advantage of this huge space we have,” Jackson said.

Bookings can be made online and the facility will only be open Friday evenings and on weekends at first.

Left: The L’Heureux family – Éric, left, Cindy Desouza L’Heureux, Julia, Yves and Alexandra – are all smiles before their trip this to Cambodia where they spent a week building houses for people in need. Right: The L’Heureux family sit on the steps of one of 22 houses they helped build in a small village outside Cambodia’s capital city of Phnom Penh in July.

Alta Vista family returns from their Cambodia house-building adventure Though they helped build 22 new homes for Cambodia’s poor, Alta Vista’s L’Heureux family insist they got much more out of the experience than the people they helped.

“Yves summed it up when he said, ‘You know how they say, when you give, you receive even more?’ We felt that we got more out of it then we gave,” Cindy Desouza L’Heureux said of her husband, Yves L’Heureux.

“We felt so privileged and honoured to be giving these people their houses that it was like a gift to us.”

Desouza L’Heureux and her husband took their children, Julia, 11, Alexandra, 14, and Éric, 17, to Southeast Asia this summer for a vacation – with a twist.

The family of five has travelled the world, but had never before been to Asia together. When they decided upon their next destination, Desouza L’Heureux recalled hearing about house-building efforts spearheaded by the Tabitha Foundation, an organization that provides aid to Cambodians.

The family worked with

Though the family had no prior house-building experience, Desouza L’Heureux said they quickly caught on with guidance from local contractors, who taught them how to install the iron walls and nail down bamboo strips for flooring.

“There’s a complete language barrier so you can’t talk to these men,” she said.

“It’s gestures and smiles

It was just amazing.”

When the houses were completed, the volunteers gifted each of the recipient families a blanket as a housewarming gift to welcome them to their new homes.

“You can see by the expressions on their faces how grateful they are to see their finished house,” Desouza L’Heureux said.

about 35 other volunteers from the U.S., the U.K., Japan and Singapore to build 22 houses for villagers more than an hour’s drive outside Cambodia’s capital city of Phnom Penh.

Each family paid for their own travelling expenses and fundraised to pay for the construction of as many new houses as possible.

The L’Heureuxs originally hoped to raise $5,000 to pay for three homes, but ended up generating $12,565.91, which paid for eight houses, or one-third of the houses built by the group. The houses are constructed on stilts and feature corrugated iron walls, a bamboo floor and a roof.

“Out of all the volunteers, we were the ones who raised the most money,” Desouza L’Heureux said.

“The support we received was amazing. It was such a mix – colleagues, friends, acquaintances, neighbours, teammates and parents from my kids’ hockey and soccer teams,” she said, adding that one 11-year-old Ottawa boy donated $65.91 – a month’s worth of his earnings from his newspaper route – to the family’s fundraising efforts.

OPINION

Taxi mess does no one a favour

T

axis drivers and their customers have been dealing with a perfect storm; one that is costing everyone time and money.

The arrival of Uber in the city has created serious challenges to the existing system. No one wins.

And on top of this, because of a new deal with the airport authority which wants to maximize revenues, the taxi service broker Coventry Connections has decided now is a good time to bump up fees for transporting passengers who arrive at the airport in need of ground transportation. Of course, those fees don’t apply to Uber cars.

Taxi drivers may own a taxi plate or drive for a plate’s owner. That means some drivers have invested in plates that have suddenly dropped in value, as almost anyone with a car can drive for Uber.

The taxi drivers who drive a car but don’t own the plate, any increase in fees will come right out of their pocket or push people to cheaper options: ie.

Uber.

Now is not a good time to bump up fees. Now is

the time to make changes to the existing system to better compete with newcomers.

As a public relations move, shutting down transportation from the airport by regular cabs helps no one. Passengers left stranded won’t be inclined to support the taxi drivers; it simply pushes more people into the hands of the part-time drivers at Uber.

The taxi drivers’ dilemma goes deeper than a protest or a sound bite. They have a case to make.

Drivers with taxi plates on their bumper are mostly full-time workers trying to survive, and probably support a family.

It’s not fair that they see their livelihoods turned upside down in the blink of an eye. And adding fees they must pay out of their own pocket, or pass on to customers who may feel gouged is not the recipe for a promising future.

The city promises it will study the taxi-Uber question and address it with new regulations. Until that new set of rules is drafted, fees should remain unchanged.

The good kind of separation

Y

ou might be among those drivers startled to find outlines of bicycles in what you thought was your lane on some downtown streets. Whoops: are you driving in a bicycle lane?

Well, no, actually. Here’s what a city website has to say: “The City of Ottawa is introducing sharrows on several of our busiest streets. The purpose of a sharrow – road markings showing a bicycle with two chevrons – is to remind residents to share the road when driving or cycling in Ottawa.�

So they painted that on the road to remind you that there might be bicycles. OK. Now, they’ve also painted the words “Dooring Zone� on the pavement along parts of Wellington Street.

This is to tell motorists to look out for

CHARLES GORDON Funny Town cyclists before they get out of their cars, and it is probably also to tell cyclists to be careful of car doors. Fine.

But does anybody seriously think any of this will solve much? Instead of forcing everyone to decipher the street painting, wouldn’t it be better to take a truly serious look at the relationship between bicycles and cars?

The fact is that cars and bicycles will never coexist properly on the streets. There will always be people on both sides who are careless or reckless or too aggressive.

Vice President & Regional Publisher Mike Mount mmount@metroland.com 613-283-3182, ext. 104 Director of Advertising Cheryl Hammond cheryl.hammond@metroland.com Phone 613-221-6218 Editor-in-Chief Ryland Coyne rcoyne@metroland.com General Manager: Mike Tracy mike.tracy@metroland.com

On most of our city streets there is too little room for error. They are too narrow. One mistake, one miscalculation, one moment of inattention and somebody gets hurt — most often the cyclist.

Sharrows won’t solve that. Advertising won’t either, nor will Internet pleading. Public education campaigns are a nice idea but not everyone will be paying attention. Wider streets would help but there isn’t the room to widen most of them, and there isn’t the money either.

So it’s time to stop with the half measures, time to bite the bullet, time to be bold and creative.

And that means one thing: Make some streets bicycles-only. Ban cars from them to make them truly safe for cyclists. And perhaps go the other way too: ban bicycles from some streets, the ones that are too busy and too narrow.

Have some north-south streets that are bicycles-only. Have some east-

And then – yes – get ready for a mighty howl from just about everybody. Cyclists, motorists, merchants.

The thing is, they’ll get used to it.

People adjust.

Then we might see traffic moving more smoothly for the motorists. We might find cyclists operating in a safer environment. We might even find a new kind of profitable commerce opening up on the quieter, bicycleonly streets.

I’m sure I’m not the only one who would enjoy strolling beside a street where there were no cars. It’s less difficult, after all, for bicycles and pedestrians to co-exist.

On that stroll, I’d be looking for somewhere to stop and have a coffee.

I’d be looking to window-shop at leisure and perhaps even buy something.

It’s time to try this. The alternatives are not working and no amount of painting stick figures on the pavement EDITORIAL MANAGING EDITOR: 4HERESA &RITZ

There are new types of treatment being de-

For 10-year-old Nicholas Paravan, chopping off his hair for cancer research was the least he could do.

Nicholas was one of many people who helped local charity Hair Donation Ottawa raise more than $126,000 for cancer research in April.

The young Carlingwood resident, who attends Woodroffe Public School, raised more money than anyone else for the charity this year, garnering more than $5,000.

“I feel happy because I know I’ve made a big difference,” he said at a ceremony on Aug. 11, when Hair Donation Ottawa officially presented the raised money to CHEO. Nicholas said he felt compelled to help out because his brother suffers from an undiagnosed neurological condition, which brought his family to Ronald MacDonald House in Toronto, where he made friends who had cancer.

“I thought I should help them,” he said.

Nicholas had hair down to his shoulders before he cut 15 centimetres off in April to raise the money for Hair Donation Ottawa.

The charity was founded in 2011 by Helene Hutchings, a cancer survivor who wanted to give back to research after she was cured of the malady.

“When I do what I can, and everyone involved does what they can, every bit helps,” Hutchings said.

“Can I ever repay the medical profession? Absolutely not because I could never repay someone for life, but I do my best to make a difference, and so does everyone else in Hair Donation Ottawa. We make a difference because we can.”

The charity invites participants to donate their hair and raise funds for cancer research at CHEO and the Ottawa Hospital. Since 2011, Hair Donation Ottawa participants have donated more than $250,000 and sheared off 38,000 centimetres of hair.

This year, Hair Donation Ottawa topped its previous fundraising records.

“What’s done here is going to help research that’s done worldwide,” Hutchings said of cancer work being done at CHEO. “If we can help people ­– whatever age they are – combat cancer and still have a good quality of life after the treatment, that’s all we can ask.”

Dr. David Stojdl of CHEO said donations such as the one from Donation Hair Ottawa allow researchers to take

The Ottawa Mission has expanded the capacity of its hospice by 50 per cent to accommodate more homeless people who are in the final days of their lives.

The mission has added seven beds to the Diane Morrison Hospice, which opened in 2001 with 14 beds. The facility, which sits on Daly Street, has provided palliative care to more than 150 homeless people over the years.

“We realized several months ago –about six months ago ­– we needed to do a little better. We needed to do a little more,” said Peter Tilley, executive director of the Ottawa Mission.

Together we can make a difference…

An open letter from Daniel Alfredsson, Champion for Mental Health and former Captain, Ottawa Senators (1999-2013) cmyk

black

inverted

No one is immune to mental illness. Not fame, not wealth, not working hard or living right, will guarantee that you, or someone you love, will not fall under the shadow.

One in five Canadians will experience mental illness. We all know someone who has been affected, directly or indirectly. It’s the single greatest cause of workplace disability today.

For too long, the shadow of stigma kept me from understanding or talking about my sister Cecilia’s struggle with generalized anxiety disorder.

But her pain, and the tragic losses that occurred in our community, finally moved me to speak out. I think of my friend’s daughter Kim Mackenzie Smith or the Lees family’s beloved daughter and sister, Allison. Then there’s Daron, daughter of my friends Luke and Stephanie.

For the past seven years, I’ve been proud to reach out to the Ottawa community on behalf of the Royal Ottawa Mental Health Centre. When I joined the team, I made a personal commitment to do all I can to help.

I meant it then, and I mean it now. Are you with me?

I know our community is up to the challenge. Next to my parents, Ottawa has done more to make me who I am than anything else in my life.

I learned to support my neighbours when they are down. I learned to reach out to the ones who are suffering in silence, in fear, and in painful dignity.

Sometimes, when I was feeling particularly down about my performance on the ice, I found the best cure was to get out into the community. I would go shopping with my wife and kids, drop into a coffee shop, or chat with the guy at the gas station.

The message was always the same, “Hey Alfie, you’re going to beat them next time. Don’t sweat it. We love you.” And every time, I’d drive home smiling, with new energy and gratitude.

The people of Ottawa lift up those who stumble. We reach out to those who need it most and expect it the least.

Together, we need to overcome the stigma of mental illness. We need to support exciting research that is unlocking the mysteries of the brain.

Most importantly, we need to support people and their families who know what it’s like to struggle every day of their lives with depression, anxiety, and mental illness.

Your kind donation to The Royal in support of the Campaign for Mental Health will do so much good. You’ll be supporting research, the purchase of a new brain imaging machine, a women’s mental health initiative, family support services, advocacy and awareness programming as well as funding fellowships and public education.

Your support today will help The Royal purchase a new state-of-the-art PET-MRI imaging machine. The PET is a highly sensitive imaging tool that allows researchers to quickly track chemical changes in the brain. And the MRI gives a clear picture of where brain function is different from the normal. Researchers at The Royal tell me this new technology will be like a window into the brain that will allow them to learn more about how and where depression affects it. This research will one day enable doctors to offer better care by basing their diagnoses and personalized treatments on hard evidence.

Ottawa will be the home to the PET-MRI which will be the only machine of its kind in North America focused on research into the diagnosis and treatment of mental health issues.

I’m excited that progress is being made in research at The Royal that will help people like my sister and others with mental illness. They are doing innovative clinical research that will change many lives. The Royal is leading the way with innovative treatments that are being shared around the world.

Please join me in standing up for people with mental illness. On behalf of my family, and all those striving to regain mental health, thank you for caring.

We fight this battle for all of us.

Sincerely, Daniel Alfredsson

The Ottawa Senators are bringing players and some pre-season excitement to their fans with the second annual Hometown Tour that started Aug. 18.

The tour sees 12 days of free events at Canadian Tire locations in 12 different communities in eastern Ontario and western Quebec featuring two Senators players interacting with fans and signing autographs.

Senators defenceman Cody Ceci took part in some of the tour stops last year and will be again this year.

“Meeting all the fans was a great time and to see all the support was really cool for us,” said Ceci.

The events aim to get fans to show their Sens pride to win tickets and display their skills with some interactive games.

Those include ball hockey matches, mini stick games on mini inflatable rinks, a shot speed and accuracy test and more, said the team’s director of fan and community development, Aaron Robinson.

“We have lots of opportunities to interact with the fans,” he said. “(The Hometown Tour) is a chance for us to get out and thank fans and get ready for the season.”

Robinson said he expects there to be more prizes avail-

able this year, with fans able to sign up to win free tickets to Senators games, as well as ticket giveaways for people who show up in their best Sens gear to show their love for the team.

But the main attraction is the players, who will sign autographs at each event.

Hometown Tour stops will take place at the following locations: Aug. 20 - Cornwall at 201-9th St. East from 2 to 5:30 p.m.

- Casselman at 95 Lafleche Blvd. from 4 to 7:30 p.m.

Aug. 25 - Renfrew at 1050 O’Brien Rd. from 2 to 5:30 p.m.

- Carleton Place at 485 McNeely Ave. from 4 to 7:30 p.m.

Aug. 26 - Kingston at 59 Bath Rd. from 1:30 to 5 p.m.

- Perth at 45 Dufferin St. from 4 to 7:30 p.m.

Aug. 27 - Nepean at 1820 Merivale Rd. from 2 to 5:30 p.m.

- Kemptville at 311 Ryan’s Well Dr. in the Lambton Mall from 4 to 7:30 p.m.

Autographs will be given to those with wrist bands only, with more than 200 available at each Canadian Tire location starting at 9 a.m. on the day of the tour stop.

The event is a chance for Senators players to see a bit more of the communities their fans call home, said Robin-

son.

“Fans travel a ways to come see us a lot of times, and now it’s our turn to go to them and get our players to see what eastern Ontario and western Quebec is all about because sometimes they don’t necessarily get out past Ottawa,” he said.

Ceci said he was amazed by the attendance at last year’s tour stops.

“You don’t really realize how many fans there are outside in the smaller communities until you get there and you see a huge line of people,” he said.

GETTING READY

Senators players are starting to filter into the city to start training early, said Ceci.

“It just shows that everyone is committed to the season and we are all ready to get back at it,” he said.

With a good end to last season, Ceci said he and the team hope to keep that energy rolling.

Apart from bringing up his own defensive numbers, he said his hopes for this season include getting back in the playoffs.

“We were kind of counted out around Christmastime and from there we went on a bit of a tear, so it was really cool for us to win that many games and make it into the playoffs,” he said.

Bryce Desrochers, 12, swings a baseball bat with a little help from his dad, Rolly, as he hits the first ever pitch thrown out at the Miracle League field on Navan Road on Aug. 14. The field officially opened, to Bryce’s delight. The youth and his family were the driving force behind the fully accessible field.

Accessible baseball field comes true for boy with a dream Brier Dodge

thrown by Blue Jays alumnus and Word Series winner Duane Ward, it meant the dream had officially become reality.

“To be the first one to hit that ball, it just felt like it was really good,” Bryce said. “It feels really awesome.”

The field, which will have an adaptive playground built next to it over the next year, will now host baseball leagues for players, including Bryce, many of whom have never had the chance to play the game.

Stephanie Paravan was excited for her son Matthew, 8, who uses a wheelchair when she met the Desrochers family and heard about the field.

Matthew was at the opening to play in the inaugural Miracle League of Ottawa game.

“I think it’s amazing,” Paravan said. “Matthew is so excited, and I’m so excited that he has the opportunity to play baseball in a league just like the other kids.”

Though the family lives in the Carlingwood area, “it’s worth the drive,” she said.

Registration is now open for anyone who wants to play in the leagues at the field at online at miracleleagueofottawa.ca. The leagues are open to anyone and all ages with a physical or mental disability.

“Bryce, you said if you say your dreams out loud, they can come true,” Rolly said, as he spoke prior to the ribbon cutting. “Here you have it son.

We did it.”

Bryce Desrochers made his way around the four bases with so much joy, he couldn’t help but laugh the entire way around the ball diamond.

The 12-year-old hit the first home run and made his way around the bases at the Miracle League field in Navan on Aug. 14 in his power wheelchair.

Everything had finally come together for one crazy dream he had, a dream his family and community followed through on.

Bryce was watching Extreme Makeover: Home Edition with his mother one night, and saw a boy on television go to a Miracle League field in his home town. The field had a rubberized surface, and no puddles or angry ruts for a wheelchair to get stuck in.

This was baseball that Bryce, who has cerebral palsy, could actually play.

“If he decides he wants to do something, we’re going to figure out how he can do it and where,” his mother Michelle said. “And when there isn’t a place? Well, let’s build one.”

The family got in contact with the Orléans Rotary Club and Champions for Ottawa Baseball, and pitched the idea of Miracle League an organization that works with communities to build custom-designed, rubberized turf fields and run leagues for players

with different physical and mental disabilities.

“We saw people kicking up and doing things and saying yes, yes, yes, not no, no, no,” Michelle said.

The Miracle League of Ottawa became its own non-profit, and has fundraised to build the diamond on city donated land on Navan Road.

“Over three years ago when we started this project, I had doubts,” Rolly, Bryce’s dad, said. “But as we started moving forward and made contact with David (Gourlay from the Champions for Ottawa Baseball), at that point, I really saw the dream start to really come forward. We reached out to the Rotarians, and from there, there was no looking back.”

The Jays Care Foundation, a charitable branch of the Toronto Blue Jays, pitched in a significant amount - $210,000 – to see the project meet its fundraising goals.

The group also received $25,000 through the Kraft Celebration Tour, when they were nominated as one of the top 10 community development projects in Canada. The city matched donations that came in to fund the project.

Bryce, Rolly and Michelle were at the field on Aug. 14, to help the board of directors, sponsors, and community members officially open the field.

When Bryce, assisted by Rolly, hit the very first pitch,

Joel Melnichuk, the ‘Chief Axe Thrower’ of Bad Axe Throwing, launches an axe at a target in one of his facilities in the Toronto area. The axe-throwing club is expanding to Ottawa, with an east-end location set to open Aug. 22.

Axe-throwing club takes a chop at Ottawa expansion Throwing axes isn’t just for lumberjacks any more.

Less than a year since Joel Melnichuk created Bad Axe Throwing in the GTA, he is bringing his axethrowing business to Ottawa.

Last summer, Melnichuk heard about an axe-throwing craze that had taken hold in Europe and decided to try it out. He built a wooden target in his backyard with his brother-in-law and started launching axes.

“We just started chucking axes at it and thought, ‘This is super cool,’” said the company CEO and self-described “Chief Axe Thrower.”

Melnichuk bought an industrial space in Burlington, Ont., in October 2014 and has since seen his business take off at lightning speed, opening three more locations in the GTA by this May. “It totally exploded,” he said.

“We knew it was a super unique idea, but we didn’t think it would explode this rapidly. We thought it would take a couple years to get established.”

Bad Axe Throwing now has about 20 employees at five different sites. The newest location, at 1580 Liverpool Crt. – near Innes and St. Laurent – is set to open on Aug 22.

Groups of at least eight people can book the site for three-hour sessions to competitively throw axes at two wooden targets. Axe coaches give group tutorials on how to throw the axes safely before letting newbies loose to compete against each other.

Bad Axe Throwing is open to hosting events such as birthdays and bachelor parties and axe-hurlers are encouraged to bring their own food and drinks to the sessions.

Melnichuk is now looking to expand Bad Axe Throwing nationwide and has plans to open two locations in Western Canada this fall. The company also recently announced it is hoping to expand globally and open at least 10 more locations within the next year.

“It beats bowling and mini-golf,” Melnichuk said. “It’s definitely a unique activity. People come and get to throw axes against their boss and it provides a different dynamic.”

OPINION

Stewards of nature

F

indings from a Canada Parks Council study two years ago show that the more time people spend in nature, the more likely they are to care for the natural environment.

Organizations in the Ottawa area, such as Ottawa Riverkeeper – a group of volunteers that protect the Ottawa River for swimmers, boaters and fishers – is a good example of natural space users that have easily made the transition to stewards.

Sadly, the opposite can also be true. As city dwellers flock to local natural environments to escape the hustle and bustle or heat of the city, there are among them those who abuse the space.

Sandbanks Provincial Park has been a favourite family destination for a few years now. Halfway between Ottawa and Toronto, and a frequent destination for Montrealers, Sandbanks is popular beach and camping spot for city folk.

A group called Friends of Sandbanks has worked for years to inform visitors about the unique designation of the sand dunes, the largest fresh-

juice box straws and other miniscule pieces of metal and plastic.

It became a pastime for my older children – stewards in training—to collect tiny morsels of crap from the ground to put them in the waste bin.

Generally, we’ve found Gatineau Park visitors to be more considerate of nature. In the last visitor study conducted in 2011, the National Capital Commission determined that 2.7 million people visit the park each year, making it second to Banff as Canada’s most popular federal park.

Gatineau also holds the distinction as the only federal park that is not run by Parks Canada; the park is overseen by the NCC. In July, the NCC put out a call to vendors to launch a major economic impact study – the first in 17 years – to determine how people use the park, where they come from, how local spending affects surrounding communities, and if they’re aware of the NCC’s mandate to protect this natural space.

Based on my most recent visit to the campground at Philippe Lake, management of which is further

BRYNNA LESLIE Capital Muse water dune system in the world.

Despite their work preserving hiking trails, removing invasive species, running a nature store and summer outdoor theatre toward helping people to a greater understanding of the space, they continue to face an uphill battle against day beach users and campers who are determined to litter and destruct.

Two years ago, we arrived at the park to find the fire pit on our campsite had been relocated by the previous tenants – multiple fire pits are a terrible rape of the organic land beneath.

Even worse, it had been used as a garbage pit; it was full of smashed alcohol bottles, chip bags and other non-recyclables. The site was covered in broken glass, plastic bread tags, tiny plastic envelopes from

outsourced to a private company called Demsis, I’m not sure the preservation issue is top of mind for visitors. The lake offers three public beaches, two of which are for day users. Entrance to the Philippe Lake sector has been automated this year, which is efficient, but it also means most day visitors have no interaction

with park staff during their visits. As a result, there seems to be no clear communication of the regulations to park visitors.

Day users to the park may not realize, for example, that Gatineau Park is a federally-protected natural space, which means it’s forbidden to migrate wood from outside the park, and it’s also prohibited to remove

anything from the 13,000-hectare site. Foraging for firewood is not allowed.

In past years I’ve seen the odd person, ignorant of these rules, gathering sticks in the forest. But this is the first year, I’ve seen rampant abuse of the rule – including campers showing up with trunks full of firewood – which makes them subject to a fine of up to $50,000 – and day users gathering wood and building illegal fire pits adjacent to the beach.

For the first time in many years, campers are allowed to consume alcohol on their campsites. Booze used to be forbidden.

Alcohol on the beach is still not allowed, communicated to day users by ancient signs that show various outlawed activities, such as feeding birds and swimming outside the buoy line.

But it’s rarely spoken. This year is the first time I’ve had to collect glass beer bottles from the sand, clearing the dangerous litter of beach users.

As the NCC prepares its economic study to inform its next master plan, it’s worth considering the role of communication to park visitors to ensure that, even as the park grows in popularity and proves to be an economic boon, all users are simultaneously working to preserve this protected natural space.

A 30-year-old Orléans man faces sex assault charges in relation to an incident involving a teenage girl at the Calypso Theme Water Park in Nation Township on Aug. 6.

The man has been charged with sexual assault, voyeurism, possession of marijuana, criminal harassment and sexual interference with a person under 16 years old.

He appeared in provincial court in L’Original, Ont., on Aug. 11 by video.

Calypso released a statement that said the incident occurred just before the park closed for the day at the park’s Jungle Run ride.

The water park’s first aid and security personnel intervened immediately and police and paramedics were called.

Park management would

not comment further because Calypso is assisting police with the investigation.

The OPP’s child sexual exploitation and technological crime units are continuing their investigation of the case.

Anyone with information is asked to contact Det. Cst. Anthony Donnelly or Paul Dube at the Russell County OPP detachment at 613-443-4499 or 1-888-310-1122.

NEB will ultimately make the decision on pipeline Continued from page 5 But Chernushenko hopes the environment committee will eventually host a public discussion on what stance, if any, the city will take on thwe project.

“We had anticipated that debate would come this fall, but we keep pushing back when that might be because the NEB’s deadlines keep getting pushed back,” he said.

UNPREDICTABLE

Even if the province and the

city do take a stance against the pipeline, it’s ultimately up the National Energy Board to decide if it goes ahead – and that’s unpredictable at best. “(Canada’s) environmental protections have been so damaged by (the Harper) government, and the National Energy Board process itself has been so fatally undermined, we can no longer count on the NEB to provide a fair process,” said Saul.

Fraser agreed and said federal regulatory changes have weakened the hearings, which will result in limited commu-

nity consultation, “minimal consideration” of environmental impacts and less of a voice for First Nations and Métis people, who believe the pipeline violates their aboriginal and treaty rights.

The changes to the scope of the National Energy Board hearing process is meant to speed up the pipeline application process, Fraser said.

“As a resource-based economy, there’s pressure to get new resource projects going faster,” he said.

Tyler Moore shows off his eSight eyewear during a Lewis Vision Improvement Foundation event earlier this summer which featured demonstrations of the electronic glasses. Moore, who is legally blind, uses the eyewear to see, and now works for the company as an ambassador.

adam.kveton@metroland.com

Research and development that took place in Kanata has resulted in a set of high-tech specs that can help the legally blind to see.

Now, the founder of the company which produces the glasses has launched a charitable organization aimed at helping those with vision impairments to afford the $15,000 specs as well as technology produced by other companies.

Conrad Lewis, engineer and eSight founder, launched the Lewis Vision Improvement Foundation at the Marshes Golf and Country Club back on June 4, where eSight eyewear was demonstrated.

The glasses contain a pair of screens which display high quality video from a camera at the front of the glasses. The battery-powered eyewear can automatically adjust contrast, brightness and other settings to a user’s needs or preferences.

Users can also manually adjust settings and focus, allowing them to zoom or even stream video content from a DVD or other device directly to the eyewear.

The eyewear cannot help those with absolutely no vision, but improves vision for those with sight problems or who are legally blind, said eSight’s vice-president of marketing and outreach, Taylor West.

“Our sort of clinical sweet spot is from a visual acuity of about 20/60 to 20/400,” said West.

Someone with 20/60 vision can see from 20 feet what a person a person with normal vision can see from 60 feet, and someone with 20/400 vision can only see from 20 feet what others can see from 400 feet.

Available since late 2013, more than 300 pairs of eSight eyewear have been sold, said West.

Family donation helps Ottawa Hospital to pursue spinal research Steph Willems

steph.willems@metroland.com

Suruchi Bhargava didn’t get her old life back after being involved in a car crash in 1989, just a few months after her wedding.

The crash left her paralyzed from the neck down, and despite her determination and her parent’s love, Suruchi passed away 17 years later without regaining her former abilities. She was 40.

Parents Uttra and Subhas Bhargava remain determined to keep their daughter’s memory alive while working towards a cure for spinal cord injuries. On Aug. 13, the family joined doctors at the Ottawa Hospital’s Civic Campus to announce the Suruchi Bhargava Chair in Spinal Cord and Brain Regeneration Research.

The chair, which will oversee a team of researchers seeking ways to repair and rebuild damaged spinal cords, was made possible by a $500,000 donation from the Bhargavas.

“The motivation was our daughter who had a car accident in New York – it was a drunk driver – a few months after her wedding,” said Subhas Bhargava. “She was 23. She died after 17 years of suffering … Now,

the pain is gone, but you want to do it so that others don’t suffer.”

Uttra Bhargava spoke highly of her daughter’s strength during the chair announcement.

“It feels so great, because our daughter was very creative, she never gave up, and didn’t believe in giving up,” she said. “After the accident, she did an MBA and got 92% in one course.

“She was very brilliant, very spiritual, and very courageous … What we have gone through, what our daughter has gone through, I don’t want to see anyone else go through it.”

The chair-holder will be Dr. Eve Tsai, an award-winning neurosurgeon and clinician scientist who has been with the Ottawa Hospital since 2006.

Tsai’s surgical interests lie in spinal injuries and the cutting-edge solutions being developed to treat them.

Stem cell therapy, nanotechnology and tissue engineering are growing fields in scientific research, and Tsai believes they will lead to established therapies.

“This family has really worked to try and develop something in Ottawa,” Tsai said of the Bhargavas.

“We have done a lot of work and research in spinal cord injury and really

Steph Willems/Metroland

The family of a spinal cord injury victim joined staff of the Ottawa Hospital to announce the Suruchi Bhargava Chair in Spinal Cord and Brain Regeneration Research on Aug. 13. The $500,000 chair will seek to develop treatments in Bhargava’s memory. From left, Dr. Jack Kitts, Ottawa Hospital president and CEO, Uttra Bhargava, Dr. Eve Tsai, chair of spinal cord research, Subhas Bhargava, and Dr. Duncan Stewart, vicepresident of research at the Ottawa Hospital. built something here, which involves basic science, translational research, as well as clinical research. So, we’re kind of building everything so that we can develop a pipeline for developing a cure.”

Tsai said that research into spinal injuries was lagging until private

donors such as the Bhargavas began putting money towards a cure.

And while the chair comes with a limited time frame, Tsai said they’ll be working to make it permanent fixture at the hospital.

“Ultimately, what we’re working on is developing an endowed chair,

which allows there to be money forever,” Tsai said. “Once you have the money for the endowment, then all the money will always continuously go towards developing research.

“This is a first step, and it’s a major step, because without it, there’s nothing,” Tsai said.

Plates were piled high for every meal at Mary’s table

F

ather said it was a poor farmer indeed who couldn’t feed his family.

Although we never had the treats our cousins had in Ottawa, such as regular trips to the picture shows or rides on streetcars where the fare for a child was a whole nickel, or store-bought fruit, we knew they did enjoy the ample meals we had on the farm during those Depression years.

I knew this, because whenever they made the long trip out to Northcote, they never left without the back seat of the car being filled with vegetables, eggs and usually a couple freshly plucked chickens.

And when our visitors came, always for a meal of course, they ate like it was to be their last meal on earth! Always they had seconds, which in itself wasn’t that odd to us.

I never knew Father or my brothers to leave the table without first loading their plates for another helping.

Our big meal was always at noon hour. When Mother came to the farm from New York, one of the first

MARY COOK Memories things she learned was what meals were served when. She said she made the mistake of calling the noon meal lunch.

Father was quick to point out the order of mealtime: breakfast in the morning, dinner at noon, supper at night, and a lunch was what we had before we went to bed!

No one enjoyed his meals more than Father. Especially dinner.

Mother would have cooked all morning, and the table would be laden with enough food, I thought, to feed half of Renfrew County.

Soup was never served at noon. It was a supper meal. But on the table, in heaping bowls, always there would be steaming bowls of mashed and creamed potatoes. Father never con-

sidered his noon meal much without his potatoes. A roast of beef or pork would be sliced at the stove, and it would fill the platter. Of course, that meant a jug of gravy too; poured over the entire plate, and the remnants sopped up with a thick slice of freshly baked bread.

... Father didn’t consider it a proper meal if he didn’t have at least one big piece of pie, or a wedge of chocolate cake to top off the meal.

This time of year, Mother would have cooked up at least two and sometimes three vegetables right out of the garden. Yellow beans, beets and fresh carrots were always available, and other than coleslaw, we never had tossed salad like Aunt Vanetta made when we visited Lyon

Street in Ottawa.

Instead, a large dinner plate held freshly picked sliced tomatoes (on which Mother sprinkled sugar when she put them on her own plate) cucumbers, and a bowl of radishes swimming in cold water amongst chips of ice from the ice house.

Father didn’t consider it a proper meal if he didn’t have at least one big piece of pie, or a wedge of chocolate cake to top off the meal.

And all the time, Mother would be constantly refilling Father’s tea cup with steaming green tea.

Although supper was considered a lighter meal, it was indeed hearty, often starting off with a big bowl of Mother’s homemade soup, cold sliced roast, fried potatoes, homemade pickles, and always a fruit nappy of homemade preserves.

After consuming such enormous meals, it was astonishing to me how Father still had room for what he called “a bit of lunch” before crawling into bed. Always there was the cup or two of green tea, and a sandwich of roast meat left over from the

day’s meals.

I often would watch Father delve into those enormous meals and wonder why he wasn’t as fat as old Herman, who could barely walk. But Father was rail-thin, with energy to burn, and hardly ever sick a day in his life on the farm.

He said he owed his good health to hard work and good food.

Father wasn’t one to hand out praise lightly. He rarely if ever said to Mother, “that was good,” but often, after tucking away an enormous meal, he would tilt his kitchen chair back on its two hind legs, and with what would pass for a grin, he would say, “You have to wonder what the poor people are eating today.”

And I would think: we are supposed to be poor people ... didn’t I hear it often enough when I wanted something as simple as new hair ribbons?

And yet, I would look around that old pine table, and the platters and bowls full of food, all raised from our own hands, and I would think, “Yes, indeed, we are richer than most.”

We want it to be here for our kids, our kids’ kids and beyond that. That is what Forever CHEO is all about!

When Ferreira Dos Santos was officially disqualified from the race the following day, Dunkerley was awarded the gold medal for the race. Despite what sounds like it could be the bonus on top of a well-run race, Dunkerley said it was a bittersweet victory.

“We feel good about the way we raced,” he said. “Obviously we’re really happy to win, but it’s not quite the way we would have wanted to win, just with the circumstances of the Brazilians being disqualified.”

According to Dunkerley, Ferreira Dos Santos’s disqualification was the result of a clerical mistake, rather than any violation of rules that would have given the Brazilian runner an unfair advantage in the race.

Dunkerley said Ferreira Dos Santos was disqualified for stating on the start sheet that he would have the help of two guides throughout the race, while ultimately running with just one.

“It’s a technical violation. To be honest, we weren’t aware of the rule either,” Dunkerley said, adding that he and Karanja supported Ferriera Dos Santos’s reinstatement in the race before officials cemented the disqualification.

“For us, we want to go up against them fair and square and if they do something wrong in the race that’s a clear infraction, that’s different, but in this situation it didn’t have a bearing on the race so it’s a little weird.”

Still, Dunkerley considered his close finish behind the Brazilian runner in the 5,000-metre race a significant accomplishment. Dunkerley said that because Brazilian runners are some of his toughest opponents in races, it’s a goal of his to close the gap

between him and those runners. He accomplished that on Monday and feels that was the real highlight of the race.

“We’ve raced them for quite a few years and they’ve always been really strong and we were a lot closer to them in that race,” Dunkerley said. “So we took a lot of encouragement from that and we felt like we were able to execute our race.”

Although Ferriera Dos Santos eventually got his gold medal at the end of the Aug. 14 race, Dunkerley closeed the gap between himself and his Brazilian rival to a mere half-second, finishing even closer than in the 5,000-metre race.

“I’m happy that there were no complications and it would have been nice to beat them fair and square,” he said. “But this will keep me hungry for next time.”

He hopes to beat Ferriera Dos Santos fair in the 2016 Paralympics in Rio, and although he won’t know for months whether he will qualify to compete in the 2016 Games, he is confident both he and Ferriera Dos Santos will be there to compete again.

“I think we have a good chance of going to Brazil if everything goes according to plan,” Dunkerley said.

Blue Jays legend tells young ball players to believe in themselves Megan DeLaire

mdelaire@metroland.com

Former Toronto Blue Jay Roberto Alomar told young baseball players gathered in Ottawa on Aug. 13 to believe in themselves and they can accomplish whatever they want with the right amount of passion and dedication.

The 12-time Major League baseball all-star and Baseball Hall of Fame inductee joined Canadian Little League Championship players, coaching staff and players’ families for the tournament’s Champions Dinner at Algonquin College that evening.

On the last day of the tournament’s round robin games – with semi-finals scheduled for Aug. 15 and the championship game scheduled for Aug. 16 – Alomar took the opportunity to offer guidance to the

young players in pursuit of the Canadian title.

“Don’t let anybody put you down. If you tell yourself that you’re gonna be somebody in life, I know with a lot of hard work and dedication you can achieve that goal,” Alomar said.

“And remember guys, you guys control your own destiny, not your parents, not your friends, only yourself. You have to be strong mentally to say, ‘I’m gonna stay on the right path and I know one day, I’m gonna make my parents proud, I’m gonna make myself proud.’”

Alomar joined the players throughout the last day of round-robin games, throwing the first pitch at the day’s noon game between Ontario and British Columbia and meeting with the players – no coaches or parents – before dinner.

“It was amazing meeting him,” said East Nepean Eagles player Michael Stremlaw, 13.

“Obviously he’s someone to look up to, and to hear him, the speech was amazing.”

The Eagles played the final game of the day against Quebec’s NDG Lynx team, who they defeated 14-2, tying the Eagles with teams from British Columbia and Ontario with a win-loss record of 5-1. Ultimately the top three teams’ ratios of minimum runs allowed broke the tie, putting British Columbia’s White Rock All Stars in the top spot going into the semi-finals, with Toronto’s High Park Braves in second place and the East Nepean Eagles in third. Finishing in fourth place, Atlantic Canada’s Glace Bay McDonalds Colonels joined the top three teams in the semi-finals.

KEEP ON LEARNING

The start of a new school year usually means shopping for school supplies and new clothes. But perhaps this time of year should also involve visits to your healthcare spe­ cialists to make sure that noth­ ing will hinder your children’s academic success.

• The dentist: Plan a visit to the dentist to confirm (keep your fingers crossed!) the absence of cavi­ ties and to ensure that your children’s teeth are positioned correctly.

In some cases, orthodontic treatment might be required.

It’s also essential that your children understand the im­ portance of having good oral hygiene.

• The optometrist: For most people, over 80 per cent of learning is done visually. In fact, several vision

SuBmITTed

Health professionals play an important role in children’s academic success.

problems may be detected when children are being taught to read and write. Conse­ quently, it’s vital to have your children’s eyes checked on a regular basis.

• The chiropractor: Your children’s vertebrae and backs are in constant use as they grow, so it’s a good

idea to have them checked out by a chiropractor.

This specialist may even demonstrate how to wear a backpack without causing in­ jury.

• The audiologist: Not responding properly to instructions, constantly asking teachers to repeat themselves and not reacting immediately when spoken to are just some of the signs that your child may have a hearing problem.

A hearing assessment is ad­ vised in these circumstances.

Some types of ear infections, if they remain untreated, could contribute to varying degrees of hearing deficits as well.

Put all the odds in favour of your child’s success by visit­ ing your healthcare special­ ists.

For many Canadian families back-to-school season is the time to organize our thoughts and lives.

Clarity and preparation starts at home as a clean and organized home sets the tone for everything we do. One common item many families will come across when fall cleaning their home is old cell phones.

While used cell phones are extremely common and are gathering dust in drawers across Canada, many of us do not know how to properly dispose of them.

Recycle My Cell is Canadaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s free cell phone recycling program.

The program accepts many different items for recycling, including smartphones, pagers, cell phone batteries and accessories. After your device is received, it is sent to a processor where it can be refurbished or broken down.

All items recovered are recycled or refurbished in accordance with Canadian e-waste laws.

Canadians can visit www.RecycleMyCell.ca and enter their postal code to locate the drop-off locations closest to them where their old wireless devices will be accepted, regardless of brand or condition.

If you canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t get to one of the drop-off locations in your neighborhood, the web site offers a printable postage-paid label that can be used to mail the device back to Recycle My Cell at absolutely no cost. newscanada.com

PET OF THE WEEK

Ottawa South News - Thursday, August 20, 2015

Meet Kip (ID#A177927), a mature, laid back boy looking for his purr-fect match.

Easygoing Kip can spend hours lounging in the sun by a window. When he’s not relaxing, he likes to play with his favourite wand toys – he loves to jump and catch them.

Kip is very affectionate and he’s is looking for a calm home with a new best friend to cuddle with. Could that new best friend be you?

For more information on Kip and all the adoptable animals, stop by the OHS at 245 West Hunt Club Rd. Check out our website at www.ottawahumane.ca to see photos and descriptions of the animals available for adoption.

August 15 is National Check the Chip Day — a perfect time to get a microchip for your furry companion if they don’t already have one, or to ensure their existing chip is up to date.

A microchip provides a permanent means of pet identification. Each grain-sized microchip has a unique 0820.R0013419062

GiGi

My name is GiGi. I’m a one year old Rottweiler mix. My parents rescued me all the way from London, Ontario. I can be a little shy at first but once you get to know me I will quickly show you my gentle and loving personality.

I love going on long walks with my parents and hanging out at the park near my house watching the world go by.

Microchips will not fade or be lost over time. Owner information can be accessed electronically and immediately, ensuring the speedy return of a lost pet. While tags may be lost from time to time, tags are still important as a quick and visual way of identifying your pet.

This week’s puzzle answers in next week’s issue

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

ARIES - Mar 21/Apr 20 Focus on your finances in the coming week, Aries. This is not just something that should last this week, but for the rest of the month to get your affairs in order.

TAURUS - Apr 21/May 21 Taurus, you have the opportunity to see yourself more clearly this week. This may help you focus your goals precisely and change your life for the better.

Choose one project.

LIBRA - Sept 23/Oct 23 Courage will be your secret weapon this week, Libra. When everyone else is backing out of a difficult situation, you will rise to the challenge and show your mettle.

SCORPIO - Oct 24/Nov 22 Scorpio, even if you want to pursue personal interests this week, you may not be able to get any time alone. You may need to put aside these tasks and handle what’s in front of you.

Since 1975

Capital Fair

Free Gate admission

is the last big summer hurrah

For the past 40 years, the Capital (formerly Gloucester) Fair has welcomed spring to the National Capital Region, bringing fun and excitement along with it.

Now in its second year as the 10 day late summer event at the Rideau Carleton Raceway, the Fair promises to have something for everyone with wild and crazy outdoor monster truck shows, western horse and barrel racing shows, Eastern Ontario’s largest midway, three days of senior’s bridge tournaments, a raucous demolition derby, free daily live entertainment, a comedic hypnotist, a daily dog stunt show, Armwrestling championships, an amateur BBQ competition, a Petting Zoo and a huge kids zone among lots of other attractions. It’s is a great way to get out and have one last summer celebration with the whole family.

The Fair’s signature event, the Monster Trucks on a Mission show is not your average extreme action feature. These trucks take full advantage of the outdoor venue to reach speeds and heights and perform tricks that can’t be performed in any indoor arena. With a show on Friday, August 21st, Saturday, August 22nd and Sunday, August 23rd, there’s lots of opportunity to enjoy this spectacular event. Discount tickets are available on-line (capitalfair.ca) for a limited time and at the door for only $25.00. Special combo packages are available but only on-line. They offer all day midway rides and admission to the Monster Shows.

There are also VIP packages for the best seats in the house, a pit pass and autograph session.

Cars and trucks will be crashing all over the fair, as the Monster Truck Show is complimented by a return of our FREE Demolition Derby on Thursday night.

See our derby cars smash and crash, all to the delight of the crowd.

And it won’t just be the car’s strength that will be tested. On Sunday the Ontario Championship arm-wrestling competition will push competitors to the edge.

All of that outdoor fun is sure to build up a healthy appetite and barbeque is

the name of the game at the Capital Fair at the D&S Southern Comfort B.B.Q. Restaurant “Smoked to the Bone” barbeque competition. The competition will pit amateur teams against each other for $1,000 in cash and prizes. Think your barbecue talents deserve glory? Why not try your hand? All you need is a BBQ. Chicken and ribs are provide with your admission.

For animal enthusiasts, there are western horse barrel races on Friday and Saturday night and a full Gymkhana show on Sunday. The Kids Zone features the Bird of Prey show where families can meet eagles, owls and hawks up close and personal. See them soar overhead as the conservation team explains the habitat and challenges these species face. There’s also a petting zoo and pony rides.

Also inside the Kids Tent is DooDoo, the world famous clown and his Dance Party. There’s also the Reptile Rainforest, the Kommunity Stage and the Travelin’ Farmer display where city folk can get in touch with their country cousins.

Kids young and old can enjoy the World’s Finest Midway, which delivers all the best rides from summer´s past including the Cannonball, Music Express, Alien Abduction and Fireball. All-day ride passes are regular $36 or you can purchase in advance for $18.

The Capital Fair also appreciates the community it thrives in, so they give back every year the day before the fair starts with the Hydro Ottawa Special Needs Day. This year we will host over 1,500 special needs children to a private party where legions of Hydro Ottawa volunteers help move children to and from World’s Finest Midway rides and then off to a hotdog and ice cream lunch in the Hydro Ottawa food tent. Entertainment, Karaoke and a Petting Zoo, courtesy of Monalea Petting Zoo, round out what is the best day of the year for many of these children.

So come check out all that the fair has to offer!
