News - Bayshore Park will soon have a new centerpiece, thanks to the Ottawa Senators Foundation and its community partners. On Jan. 7, representatives from the foundation joined others from Ferguslea Properties and the city in dropping the puck at a new Sens RINK project in Bayshore Park, ensuring new recreational opportunities for years to come. The announcement was made at the Accora Centre, close to where the ice pad will be located. The Sens RINK (Recreational Investments in Neighbourhoods for Kids) is a community rink initiative designed to foster recreation and sport, while providing new neighbourhood focal points designed to be active year-round, rather than just the winter.

initiative is behind the Rink of Dreams at city hall, and the new community rink that opened in Lowertown’s Jules Morin Park one year ago. This is the third of 20 planned projects. “We believe that our Sens RINKS … will provide communities and youth access to sports, activities and programming that will allow kids to get outside, be engaged, and break the cycle of inactivity,” said Danielle Robsinson, Sens Foundation president, who joined Senator Vern White, who is a Sens RINK volunteer, and Ottawa Senators alumni president Brad Marsh at the event. “Each Sens RINK will feature a permanent surface that can be used in the summer or winter, along with boards, upper containment fencing and equipment,” Robinson said.

News - When Canada Post announced in December that it would do away with door-todoor mail delivery, municipal minds filled with visions of vast community mailboxes crammed into downtowns.
The changes announced Dec. 11 mean the remaining onethird of the population that still gets mail delivered to their door will have to head to a more central hub to get their mail. But the communal post boxes won’t necessarily look like the brown-and silver community mailboxes that are such a fix-

ture in the suburbs, said Canada Post. Nor should they, said experts in urban design. “I think they can try, I think if they try that, they’re silly,” said George Dark, a planner with Urban Strategies who the city has hired to define how communities like Centretown,
Scott Street and the PrestonCarling area should grow. “Retrofitting into the city is going to take a different mindset,” he said. He urged Canada Post to hire industrial designers and “think through the problem” of what a community mailbox will look like in a dense urban setting.

Community - It’s already been a long winter, and January has only just begun. Rather than hunkering down with warm blankets and Netflix marathons, the Carlington Community Association is advocating for residents to head outside and have fun with their neighbours. The return of what’s become an annual tradition – the Carlington Cup -serves as a way to foster community involvement while kicking the January blahs to the rinkside. Styled as an old-fashioned, quintessentially-Canadian shinny tournament, the Carlington Cup features friendly competition and hot chocolate to brighten the dead of winter. The new tradition began in 2012.

Traffic Issues: Traffic concerns, like congestion, speeding and parking are the number one issues across our City. My team and I continue to work with residents, Community Associations and the City’s Traffic department to ensure our streets and sidewalks are the safest they can be for everyone. I encourage you to call the City’s 311 service or the Ottawa Police Services non-emergency number at 613-236-1222 ext. 7300 to report your concerns about traffic. These calls are recorded and help in allocating resources for enforcement. In the coming year I plan to host traffic related meetings which will allow residents to learn more about how traffic initiatives are handled and how decisions are made which relate to specific neighbourhoods.
This is just a snapshot of what we have planned for 2014 but as always my team and I will continue to work for you and with you, in an effort to make the neighbourhoods of Bay Ward great places to live, work and raise our families. Looking ahead, Ottawa’s Winterlude celebration kicks off on Friday January 31st and runs until February 17th. There are numerous activities planned for everyone. It is a great opportunity to get out, enjoy winter and all that our beautiful City has to offer. You can visit the official Winterlude Website for more information, http://ow.ly/s5Gn2 . Don’t forget while you are downtown be sure to visit your City Hall and skate on the Rink of Dreams – a wonderful addition to our City. If you have an idea, or question regarding our city, please feel free to contact me at our City Hall or Community office, or reach out to me on social media. You can find me on Facebook or follow me on Twitter (@Go_Taylor). We even have a YouTube channel http://ow.ly/s5GIj where you can see past videos from Bay Ward. Don’t forget you can also visit our website to learn more about our community and to stay up to date on what’s new and happening.

Ron Kolbus Lakeside Centre in Britannia Park: The Ron Kolbus Lakeside Centre and Britannia Park are jewels not only in Bay Ward but in our City. Hidden away on the banks of the Ottawa River they offer so much and have the potential to offer so much more to you, Bay Ward residents and our City. Residents told us they wanted and needed more community and program space. Last year we asked for your ideas and held consultations with various community and user groups. There was no shortage of comments or suggestions for the park and the fifty year old building. In 2014 we will again come back to the community asking for your input and feedback on how best to renew the facility. I am happy to tell you that in the coming year we will begin to roll out park improvements. One of the first changes you will notice is improved way finding signage. This was an area that most users and visitors to the park felt was in need of upgrading.
Following Along: In the coming year my team and I will continue to follow along a number of private redevelopments. We will watch closely and continue to inform residents about the work being done at the former Sterling Place residence, we will also monitor the project at the Fairlawn Plaza and also the Former Grant School. As always I will ensure that residents have the opportunity to make their voices heard through community meetings and open consultations. I have always believed in bringing all parties together to ensure “good neighbours” and also that the project being considered is a “good fit” for the community and its residents.

The City will also be highlighting some of the other changes which are coming to the park in the coming years, like an upgraded field house. The event starts at 10:30am and everyone is welcome to join us.

Carling Avenue Economic Development: As your Councillor I am committed to renewing our neighbourhoods. In 2014 you will begin to see changes on Carling Avenue between Pinecrest Road and Bayshore Drive. This area will soon take on a new look as the Carling Avenue Community Improvement Plan (CIP) begins to take shape. Businesses along this stretch of Carling Avenue will be provided with tax incentives for growing and refurbishing their business. The goal is to make Carling Avenue a “destination” a place where you want to shop. The area is diverse and has the potential to offer so much to local residents as well as encourage residents from other areas of our City to visit. Growing businesses and new business means good local and accessible jobs for residents. By renewing and rebuilding we will provide opportunities; before too long, Carling Avenue will be the piece that connects families to renewed parks and young people to fulfilling easily accessible local jobs.

Review of community benefit payments on tap A year late, not a full report, but councillors will get info on Section 37 Laura Mueller laura.mueller@metroland.com
News - The city’s planning department will be issuing a long-overdue memo about how its new protocol on developer community benefit payments for upzoning is going. On Feb. 14, 2012, the city’s planning committee agreed to terms that allow it to collect money from builders who want to build large projects (bigger than 7,000 square metres) that are at least 25 per cent taller than the current rules allow. The plan is to put that money, estimated at around 15 to 50 per cent of the property value, towards community projects like parks, affordable housing, streetscaping, libraries or other public amenities. The city’s use of that community benefits payment policy, allowed under Section 37 of the provincial Planning Act, was to be reviewed after a year. A memo to the city’s planning department expected “in the coming weeks” should finally shed light on how the Section 37 policy is performing. The city declined to give any detail about the review, but confirmed it was overdue. “We delayed a full report on this matter as there were no pressing issues on Section 37 and planning and growth management was generally focused on delivering its updated master plans in 2013,” a message from city staff reads. Media relations declined to provide information on how many rezonings qualified for the charge since the policy was adopted in 2012, the value of the payments or the developments for which they were or are slated to be collected. That information will be in the memo, the email
How it’s being applied Recent Ottawa developments that qualified for Section 37 charges according to the city’s website include: • 505 Preston St. (Claridge’s Icon 45-storey condo tower): Contribution of $1.15 million towards a pedestrian crossing over the O-Train tracks at Hickory Street, the construction of a pathway along the west side of the train tracks between Carling and Beech, improvements to Ev Tremblay Park, an expansion of Plouffe Park, streetscape and sidewalk improvements, a public square at Preston Street and Carling Avenue and traffic calming projects. • 801 Albert St. (DCR Phoenix’s 30/31-storey office/condo tow-
read. The use of Section 37 in Ottawa hasn’t gone without controversy in the first two years of its implementation. Last April, residents of the Glebe Annex and Capital Coun. David Chernushenko were shocked to discover a Section 37 charge applied to a proposed 18-storey development on Carling Avenue west of Bronson Avenue had been discounted by more than 70 per cent by the city’s planning department thanks to a clause in the policy that allows discretion in the amount of community benefit to be charged. In that case, the community benefit was reduced because the developer proposed building a public pathway through the site to connect Clemow Avenue to Carling, but the local community association and councillor said they were not consulted on whether they considered that to be of benefit to the area. At the time, planning manager John Smit said the calculation of a Section 37 payment is a negotiation between the developer and the plan-
ers): Contribution of $450,000 towards the design and construction of a future pedestrian bridge over the O-Train and connecting pedestrian facilities like paths and stairs. • 111, 115 and 121 Parkdale Ave. and 71 Burnside Ave. (Tega Homes’ Rhombus 32-storey condo tower): Contribution of $400,000 to a recreation and community facility fund for Mechanicsville. • 460 St. Laurent Blvd. (Brigil’s 12-storey condo building): Contribution of $312,000 for the neighbourhood of Cardinal Glen (northeast of Vanier) to provide bike/walking pathways, tree planting and park infrastructure.
ning department. Through the councillor’s office, the community can provide suggestions of benefits it would like to see, Smit said. But if the developer proposes something different, the city planner on the file can judge whether it would qualify and by how much it would reduce the community benefit payment listed on the planning report. “It’s not a back-and-forth,” Smit said. Councillors also have a lot of discretion when it comes to finding uses for Section 37 money, as recently demonstrated by Kitchissippi Coun. Katherine Hobbs. After she didn’t receive documents outlining community priorities she said she requested from community associations, Hobbs decided to earmark $1 million of future Section 37 money in the Hintonburg and Mechanicsville area for the hydro poles on Scott Street to be moved back in anticipation of eventually converting it into a “complete street” with improved pedestrian and cycling facilities.

Flash freeze flood City crews had their work cut out for them on the evening of Jan. 6 after a water main broke under Laurier Avenue, between Elgin and Metcalfe streets. The break, which occurred just before afternoon rush hour, saw that section of Laurier closed to traffic as pavement buckled and water rushed out from the edges of the rectangular opening. Repair work was made more miserable by a flash freeze caused by the ominous-sounding ‘Polar Vortex’ affecting a large area of North America, which sent temperatures plummeting overnight. Pavement resurfacing was well underway on the morning of Jan. 7.

Municipal election 2014 process gets underway All the info voters, candidates need to know as campaign season kicks off Laura Mueller laura.mueller@metroland.com
News - Ottawa citizens won’t go to the polls until Oct. 27, but the 2014 municipal election is already underway. The last municipal election in 2010 amounted to something of a housecleaning. Ten new faces appeared around the council horseshoe and six incumbents lost their bids for re-election. In addition to 20 candidates for mayor, a total of 110 people vied for 23 council seats. Turnout in the last election was down: 44 per cent of eligible voters, or 269,547 people, cast ballots, compared to 55 per cent in the prior election in 2006. Nominations opened Jan. 2 and will continue until Sept.
12, which is also the final day nominations can be withdrawn. Anyone age 18 or older can run in the election if: • They are a resident of Ottawa or an owner or tenant of land in the city. Spouses of landowners and tenants are also eligible. • They are a Canadian citizen who is not prohibited from voting by law. A candidate must file nomination papers in person or by an agent acting on his or her behalf. The signed hard copy must be filed at the elections office at city hall or at any city client service centre. There is a $200 fee to run for mayor and a $100 cost to file a nomination for city councillor or school board trustee. Councillors each earned $93,999 in 2013, while the
mayor’s salary was $168, 102. In addition to the mayor’s seat and council positions for all 23 wards, school board trustees for the four local school boards (public and Catholic English and French boards) will also be elected. Council must pass a bylaw by Sept. 27 to set advanced voting dates. Any candidates who are unchallenged will be acclaimed on Sept. 15 after 4 p.m. Nomination papers and all other election information – including a list of nominated candidates – can be found at ottawa.ca/vote. VOTER ELIGIBILITY
The qualifications for electors are the same as for candidates: you must be a Canadian citizen at least 18 years old who is not prohibited by law from voting, and you must be an owner or tenant of land in Ottawa or the spouse of some-
one who is. The city’s voter list is compiled with information from the Municipal Property Assessment Corporation. It can be viewed at the city hall elections office or any city client service centre, where you can also fill out an application to be added to the list. Revisions to the voters list can be made after Sept. 2. Voters will need to show one piece of identification that lists your Ottawa address, like a driver’s license or an Ontario photo health card, at the polling station on election day. That can also include a utility bill , pay cheque stub or campus residence documentation. DONATIONS
Citizens who donate $25.01 or more to a municipal candidate’s campaign can qualify to receive money back under the city’s contribution rebate program. The program
is meant to encourage citizens to participate in the election. Candidates, their spouses and dependant children are not eligible, nor are corporations or trade unions. The rebates start at 50 per cent for contributions up to $100. Donations of more than $100 qualify for rebates of $50 plus 25 per cent, to a maximum of $75. CAMPAIGN RESTRICTIONS
The Municipal Elections Act prohibits incumbent candidates from using public dollars to sponsor campaign materials; however, the restriction isn’t meant to restrict elected officials from routine communication with constituents. Starting 60 days before election day, there is a complete ban on spending taxpayer-funded council office budgets on ads, flyers or newsletters. That doesn’t apply to emergency events, a commu-
nity issue that arises or an annual community event. City employees, including councillors’ staff, can participate in any election campaign provided the volunteering is done outside of work hours and doesn’t use city resources. No election signs can be placed on private property until Aug. 28 or on public property until Sept. 27. Signs must be at least 50 centimetres away from sidewalks or the shoulder of the street, or two metres away from the edge of a roadway. Campaigning isn’t allowed at voting places; however, if the poll is on private property such as an apartment building, only the common areas are considered to be part of the polling station. Signs are allowed to be placed in windows or on balconies of those buildings on election day. All signs have to be taken down within 48 hours of election day.

visions of “faceless banks of mailboxes.” At this point, there are more questions than answers, Hume said. He hoped Canada Post would engage municipalities in the implementation process as soon as possible. “They need to engage the communities,” he said. “Massive changes to public spaces require a lot of time and a lot of public consultation.” “We’re just in the middle of all of that,” Losier said. No decisions have been taken on what the communal mail facilities will look like in urban areas, she said – but the major consultation is completed, she said. Although there will be “some form of consultation and feedback mechanism” in the coming months, Losier said, that won’t include any public meetings about what the mail facilities will look like or where they will be located. Another part of the mail transformation will include providing options for where people want to have their mail delivered – perhaps to a location near their place of employment instead of their home, Losier said. GATHERING PLACES
Creating a reason for neighbours to gather or run into each other on a regular basis is widely seen as a positive side effect of something that has much more to do with the econom-
ics of physical mail in a digital world. “There is no question, people would run into a neighbour occasionally more often,” Chernushenko said. “That’s the only upside I can see - it will force some people who are able bodied to go out for a walk.” But mail carriers feel like part of the fabric of their neighbourhood, Chernushenko said, and their door-to-door visits will change the atmosphere of a neighbourhood and the feeling of home. Preventing any outdoor community mailboxes from becoming an eyesore is also a concern. Graffiti taggers will surely find them to be a perfect spot for spray-paint markings, Chernushenko said. Depending on where the boxes are located, it could create issues for snowplowing, he said. “It is one more piece of street furniture that sidewalk plows have to make their way around,” Chernushenko said. Canada Post is going to have to think hard about what role so-called “junk mail” – unaddressed flyers delivered through Canada Post – will play in the Crown corporation’s future, Dark said. If people can’t dump unwanted flyers into a recycling bin, many of them will end up blowing around the streets, he said. “If you get junk mail in a remote location, you’ll find it stays there,” Dark said.

Meet the Candidates: Thomas McVeigh Community association president enters municipal race in Somerset Ward Ottawa West News staff
News - It didn’t take long for restaurant manager Thomas McVeigh, 42, to go from being the newly-elected president of the Centretown Citizens Community Association to being the one of the first candidates to register for the municipal election in Somerset Ward. McVeigh, father of a four-year-old son, has another daughter due in February with his wife, Maeve, but that isn’t stopping him from hitting the campaign trail early. He intended to run for city council when he took the CCCA president’s role in November, but he decided to step up for the president’s seat anyway because “the job was going begging.” Having lived in Centretown and the ByWard Market almost all his adult life, McVeigh said he is attuned to the issues facing Somerset Ward. Along with his family and his mother – a senior – he owns and lives
Q: Why are you running for city council in Somerset Ward? A: I’ve been involved in municipal politics in one level or another since high school, so this is just a natural evolution of that. It’s a hugely exciting time to be on council … I’ve been holding off because I am a big supporter and a long-time supporter of (incumbent) Coun. Diane Holmes, but I wanted in on this one.

I was one of the founding members when I lived in Victoria of the Downtown Victoria Residents’ Association. Here in Ottawa I am a former board member and have been active in the (CCCA) planning committee for the last six years. I have been an active member of the Wellington West (Business Improvement Area) and I am on the board. I volunteered on the Hill – my mom worked for (NDP MPs Jim) Manly and (Ed) Broadbent.

Ottawa West News staff
News - Denis Schryburt, a bilingual candidate well-known in Centretown for his activism in the gay, lesbian and transgendered community, thinks he has more to bring to the table as councillor for Somerset Ward. The single 48-year-old “proud public servant” was born and raised in Ottawa and currently works for the Canadian Food Inspection Agency, but his interests and experience run the gamut from computer programming to acting to sports and recreation (his first government job was in the Canadian Sports and Recreation Centre). Until deciding to run in the municipal election, the Centretown resident represented community associations on the city’s parking stakeholders working group, was vice chairman of the city’s community services advisory committee and was chairman of the police board’s liaison committee for GLBT communities. He has been involved with the Centretown Citizens Community Association, Bruce House and Arts Court and he organized the first Diabetes Gala. He is also regional director of the Ontario GLBT Chamber of Commerce and a member of the advisory committee for the Eldercare Foundation of Ottawa.

Q: Detail your past political and civic activism, whether it’s volunteering, campaigning, donations, lobbying or employment at any level of government or political party. A: I did work for Alex Munter when he was running for mayor (Munter ran unsuccessfully in the 2006 election) … I helped in communications, I helped in media relations, door knocking, phone calls, scheduling – a little bit of everything. I worked on the Hill for Liza Frulla, the (Liberal) minister of Canadian Heritage. I worked for Ruby Dhalla, who was the (Liberal) MP for Brampton-Springdale. Working with Ruby I got to work on some very interesting files such as healthcare, childcare, housing, homelessness. I’ve helped out (Ottawa Centre Liberal MPP) Yasir Naqvi in the past ...

A: Other than my ownership of a downtown residential and commercial property, there is no pecuniary interest. Q: What do you think the biggest issue was in Somerset Ward this term and how was it handled? What will be the big issue next term? A: I think the community design plans were the biggest in the last (term) … the Centretown CDP and the O-Train corridor CDP. I think Diane did a very good job of managing a lot of different interests through those processes. The biggest developing issues are going to be managing the LRT, whether it’s rebuilding Queen, Albert and Scott streets after it’s done, or the actual dealing with the Albert and Scott bus detours onto what are essentially residential streets is going to have to be managed and watched very

A: What I’ve been doing so far is meeting and doing coffee parties and wine and cheeses with people who have been organizing them for me so I can meet their neighbours. I am going to use my website to raise some funds. I haven’t given much thought (to corporate and union donations) … I don’t see an issue with that personally. Q: Do you have any potential pecuniary interests or a financial or family conflict of interest? A: Absolutely not. That’s why I am stepping down from these boards and committees – ethics are very important to me. Q: What do you think the biggest issue was in Somerset Ward this term and how was it handled?

I think LRT has been a huge, huge issue in the ward. I think it was handled properly. I am very happy with the way it is turning out so far. Development and intensification is going to be a big issue. There are a lot of condos going up and a lot of people want them higher and higher. I am all for intensification, but I think it can be done smart. I think Bank Street is a good example of something that needs to be done. We need to attract more business to come and settle in on Bank Street and in the area so the people of Centretown don’t have to jump in their cars and go somewhere else to shop.

Putting fun back in hockey
O
ttawa rang in another new year with the 15th edition of the Bell Capital Cup. Despite the almost record low temperatures over the past few weeks, it warms the heart to watch children from all over the world gather at arenas across the nation’s capital in celebration of Canada’s game. The five-day tournament provides a welcome economic boost, drawing more than 15,000 visitors to the city, with thousands of hotel rooms rented for the event. The tournament has also raised more than $2.4 million in support of minor hockey and local charities since it began in 1999. More than 6,500 youth hit the ice to participate in the world’s largest hockey tournament on community ice rinks across Ottawa from Dec. 28 to Jan. 1, with the opening ceremonies held at the Bell Sensplex in Kanata. This amounts to 310 teams in 19 divisions for the annual atom and peewee hockey tournament, with participants coming from Canada, China, Japan, Finland, Germany, Austria and the United States. The Ottawa area is always well represented at the tournament, with a number of teams competing for the top spot, including the Kanata Blazers, the Nepean Raiders, the Ottawa Sting, the Ottawa Silver Seven and the Gloucester Rangers.
But this isn’t a competition centred around which team racks up the most victories, or who wins their division – the highlight of the festival is, as it always has been, the lasting memories created for the both the children and their parents. It’s about kids having fun playing games, enjoying each other’s company, sharing laughs and making new friends. The glory of hockey, the reason it’s woven into our national fabric, is it can be enjoyed by girls and boys, men and women, and as those with physical disabilities. Often we forget that hockey is just a game, distracted by our fanatical devotion to professional teams chasing Stanley Cup glory. Too often, we celebrate the bloody fist fights that mark the “competitive spirit� of National Hockey League teams, driven to win precious points to make the playoffs. For fans, the success of a team is marked in the back pages of the paper’s sports section, recording a team’s wins and losses, as well as the goals and assists tallied by players. Concepts such as good fellowship, laughter and fun usually take a back seat to goals against average, plus-minus and power play and penalty kill percentages. Tournaments such as the Bell Capital Cup remind all of us why we enjoy playing hockey, and that’s the true glory of the event.

Making some fearless predictions for 2014

There will be 7,345,187 instances of fearless predictions for 2014, journalists having nothing else to write about over the holidays. 2. The year will begin with a flurry of speculation about who will run for mayor of Ottawa in 2014. Virtually everyone will be mentioned except for Daniel Alfredsson and that’s only because he’s in Detroit most of the time. This flurry will last until people grow tired of it, which will be in mid-February. 3. In mid-February, downtown Ottawa will officially disappear in cloud of construction dust. People will eventually grow weary of looking for it and look for other downtowns to frequent, such as the downtowns of Kanata, Barrhaven and OrlÊans. When downtown Ottawa re-emerges, around 2022, everyone will have forgotten where it is. 4. The same goes for Lansdowne Park. 5. In a related development, enterprising Glebe homeowners will turn once again to a historical revenue-producing activity — renting out their lawns for parking. The more visionary of these will create underground parking beneath their lawns. 6. In March, local sports commentators will demand that Senators coach Paul McLean be fired.

Pundits will suggest that Alfredsson has no chance, since he lacks many of the qualities of a successful mayor – for example, he does not have addiction problems and he can button all the buttons on his shirt. 9.

RedBlacks, the city’s new Canadian Football League franchise. Team members will have to be helicoptered in because there is not enough parking in the Glebe. On a positive note, Ottawa residents will stop complaining about the team name. As one season ticket-holder says: “At least it’s better than Ottawa BlueOranges.� 11. Ten more outdoor stores and 21 more restaurants will open in Westboro in July. Centuries from now, archaeologists will wonder why all the remains discovered in one section of Ottawa suggest that every resident was overweight and wore hiking boots. 12. In July, the RedBlacks will win their first game, defeating the Winnipeg Blue Bombers. The Winnipeg coach will explain that his team was disoriented, suffering an identity crisis after moving from the West Division to the East Division and back for the second time in 20 years. Winnipeg sources will also reveal that, because of the success of the RedBlacks, the Winnipeg team might change its name to the BlueGolds. 13. In September, Daniel Alfredsson will announce that he is definitely not running for mayor of Ottawa. Toronto Maple Leaf fans will boo him anyway. As of mid-month, the only officially announced candidates will be Jim Watson and John Turmel.
14. In October, tunnelling workers will accidentally bury the Senate building and a nearby McDonald’s restaurant. Frantic attempts will be made to save the McDonald’s. 15. Later in the month, the city will be consumed by rumours of an early federal election, because there is nothing else to talk about. When the snow comes, election talk will cease. 16. Predictions of a catastrophic snow storm will dominate the airwaves and the catastrophic snow storm will not appear. This will be the ninth catastrophic storm not to appear in 2014. 17. Jim Watson will narrowly defeat John Turmel in the Ottawa mayoralty race. Experts will say the difference-maker was Watson’s promise to find downtown Ottawa and put a casino in it.

Lonliness is a killer, especially in post-holiday season
A
t a time when the majority of us are living in urban centres, it’s profound how isolated our lives have become. The ice storm in Toronto made me acutely aware of this. It was shocking to me the number of people, without power and lacking family or friends to take them in, that ended up in temporary shelters over Christmas. In November, a feature in the Globe and Mail covered the gamut of research suggesting that social isolation – in other words, loneliness – has become a major problem in our society. Ironically, as writer Elizabeth Renzetti pointed out, as our lives have become faster, more connected technologically and more urban, we find ourselves increasingly isolated. And it’s making us sick. “Loneliness, it turns out, is as bad for your health as smoking, or being obese,” writes Renzetti. Among many studies Renzetti cites, she highlights research out of the University of Chicago’s Center for Cognitive and Social Neuroscience, which has documented the ill-effects of being cut off – emotionally and physically – from those around us. “It shows that loneliness suppresses the immune system and cardiovascular function, and increases the amount of stress hormone the body produces. It causes wear and tear on a cellular level, and impairs sleep,” she summarizes. Renzetti points to another irony: Despite Canadians being among the most active social media us-
BRYNNA LESLIE Capital Muse ers in the world, these electronic interactions may be making us more lonely, more depressed. They don’t actually replace real live contact, and in many ways they end up making people feel worse about their lives. “Everything is rosy on Facebook,” as one of my friends likes to point out. Renzetti again summarizes the trend beautifully: “Talk to enough lonely people and you’ll find they have one thing in common: they look at Facebook and Twitter the way a hungry child looks through a window at a family feast and wonders, ‘Why is everyone having a good time except for me?’ ” It’s the barren woman reading about the thriving children of others; it’s the jobless reading about another friend that’s received a promotion. Over the holidays, some of us are more aware of the needs around us. We donate more to the food bank. We make a point of serving at a mission or helping out in a hospice. We visit a recently widowed neighbor and bring cookies. We have parties with our friends and family, should we be so lucky. Then January comes, and many of us are back to our usual grind – working, making dinners, running our own kids from one activity to
the next, and generally putting others out of mind. This individualism – fostered by everything from the one-car commuter to urban design around single-dweller condominiums and roads rather than parks – contributes to a general lack of emotional empathy, something Renzetti highlighted in her feature on the issue. But the need doesn’t go away after the holidays – and not just for people we automatically associate

News - From sleigh rides to skating-skill competitions, on-ice games to snowman building, there are more than enough fun things to do for the entire afternoon at this year’s Old Ottawa East Winter Party in the Park. The party will take place on Jan. 19 in Brantwood Park with a number of activities for the whole family. The day’s events offer lots of food from hot dogs to hot chocolate and it’s all free. Organizers have said this event
The weather keeps us indoors, close to our computers and away from the real social interactions that enrich our lives and make us feel whole. Simply being aware – of our own potential to get lonely and the likelihood that others feel the same way – may be a first step to putting community interests ahead of our own, to find opportunities to connect with others and ultimately to behave in a healthy way, like the social animals that we are.

But there are also many who are shut-in – among them, if statistics are to be believed, are your neighbours, colleagues and friends. Social isolation – along with the depression and heart problems that go along with it – becomes more pronounced in the winter months.
is much-loved and the party offers families to hang out regardless of the temperature. That sentiment proved right last year when a large crowd braved winds blowing up to 70 kilometres an hour and temperatures dipping down to -20 C to play hockey, take a sleigh ride and warm up by the fire.

Shorter version if Norman Street condo plan filed Reduction in height from earlier vision fails to sway community opposition Steph Willems steph.willems@metroland.com
Community - A controversial condo proposal in Little Italy is back on city books, but in a different form from before. When Tamarack Homes’ first proposed an 18-storey, 159-unit condo for the end of Norman Street (abutting the O-Train tracks) in November 2012, it sparked opposition from the community. The dead-end street is currently lined by low-rise buildings, a theme that carries over onto neighbouring streets, while access is only gained from a crowded Preston Street. While taller building heights are proposed for select sections of the Carling-Preston community design plan study area, those heights would
be located closer to Carling. The process to create that plan, which is expected to be completed early this year, saw residents tout the importance of retaining the low-rise character of residential streets off of Preston. The new plan for Norman Street doesn’t fit the low-rise category, but does come in at half the height previously proposed. The site plan submitted to the city on Dec. 16 describes a ninestorey building that drops to five, then three storeys in height as it approaches Preston. A total of 117 units are contained within the residential building, along with 94 underground parking spaces for residents and 10 visitor spots. The site plan control compliments a revised zoning bylaw amendment
and Official Plan amendment. Dalhousie Community Association president Michael Powell said the proposal still doesn’t lend itself to the character and capacity of Norman Street. “Going back to when we started this CDP process, the big thing was preserving the low-rise character of Little Italy,” said Powell. “Side streets in the area are barely a car width wide, and the thought of having nine storeys at the end of a road that’s only eight houses deep is concerning.” The original 18-storey proposal was presented as a transition from the multiple 30-plus storey proposals slated for Carling. That rationale didn’t fly for residents in the area, as Norman Street isn’t adjacent to the Dow Honda site or neighbour-
ing parcels pegged for high density development. Those sites are all south of Adeline Street, while Norman lies two blocks north of that boundary, surrounded by tightly-packed standalone homes and small businesses. Powell said that the removal of the mews concept in the CDP – essentially a road connecting the dead end streets between Preston and the O-Train line – means that the original staff report’s recommendation of four storeys as a limit in the area holds more weight. The mews concept would have allowed higher densities in that location due to the improved vehicle capacity and access. “There’s already so much density going into the neighbourhood,” said Powell. “Even if four storeys were
‘When all the work is complete, it is going to be awesome’ Continued from page 1
In addition to the rink itself (and the basketball nets that will be installed during the summer), the
project also brings programming such as hockey and skating clinics to encourage participation amongst local youth. Recreational spaces are maintained by the city.
Bayshore Park serves as the focal point and geographical center of the community, which was purpose-built in the 1960s and 70s to serve the rental market. Owner Fer-
guslea Properties, which rebranded the community as Accora Village in 2011 during a $40 million renewal project, will be contributing $250,000 to the rink project and the refurbishment of Bayshore Park over the next three years. Dan Greenberg, president of Ferguslea Properties and rabid Sens fan, said that his company’s management of the community “is all about the residents,” and that recreation plays a large role in building a complete community. He credited the many people who made the Sens RINK plan for Bayshore Park a reality, including the dedicated volunteers who made a Senators open air practice game in the park possible three winters ago. “As a result of this tremendous initiative we’re announcing, if any child from either Accora Village or any of the neighbourhoods around it, any of them becomes an NHL player or plays for Team Canada, I can say … our dream will come true,” said Greenberg. One Accora Village resident who
placed straight across the block, it would be a substantial increase in density.” Between the existing housing stock and proposed condos, Powell said the community wants to ensure there is a range of housing styles for prospective residents. On behalf of the association, Powell has sent a letter outlining his thoughts to the city planner attached to the file. In the letter, Powell stated the proposal exceeds the CDP’s strategic direction, and is placed in “an unsuitable location for (a) mid-rise.” He went on to say that the top-floor penthouse should be counted as an extra floor, as it contains amenity space, rather than simply housing mechanical functions. The comment period for the Norman Street proposal runs until Jan. 13, with a city staff decision on the file expected by Feb. 22.
grew up in the community, Mohamad Darwiche, 19, spoke of how he and his siblings nagged their parents to move back to Accora from Kanata. “We took our first steps on that rink outside and scored our first baskets on the court, so now we’re providing a good platform for the youth of today to take those first steps,” said Darwiche. Bay Coun. Mark Taylor said the park was the most-used feature of the community, and not just by children. Besides containing a community garden, the space serves as a locale for neighbourhood events. “When all the work is complete, it is going to be awesome,” he told the crowd, which contained elementary students from nearby St. Rose of Lima School. “You are going to see an upgraded fieldhouse - a nice new facility to attend dinners, summer camps, homework clubs and other community activities. The sports field will be upgraded and a new outdoor stage added. Bayshore Park will quickly become a hub of activity and the perfect location for outdoor entertainment.” Taylor will be hosting a public meeting to garner feedback from residents on what extra features they would like to see added to the park. That meeting will be held at the Bayshore Park Field House on the evening of Jan. 14.

Centretown Beer Store staying in one-storey redevelopment Laura Mueller
laura.mueller@metroland.com
News - Redeveloping the Centretown West Beer Store into a one-storey commercial building is a missed opportunity, says the local community association president. The developer, Starbank Developments, needs relief from some of the setback and landscaping requirements to reconstruct a one-storey building that will still contain the Beer Store, but will also expand westward into the underutilized parking lot in order to add two more stores. The committee of adjustment will hear the variance application on Jan. 15. “I would like to see something other than a suburban strip mall,” said Thomas McVeigh, newlyelected president of the Centretown Citizens Community Association. “My gut instinct is that they are

The Beer Store on Somerset Street West is proposed to be redeveloped with a one-storey, three-unit commercial building. underdeveloping that.” The association hasn’t viewed the minor variance application or formed an opinion on it, but McVeigh said personally he’d rather see a larger building of around four storeys, which is what the zoning allows. Adding residences on top of the retail units would not only be desirable be-
cause they would look out onto one of the area’s few urban green spaces, Dundonald Park, but it would also help put more “eyes on the street” to help reduce any perceptions of safety or crime issues in the area, McVeigh said. Residential units would be better than offices on upper floors because it
would help the site mesh in with the residential neighbourhood around it and also ensure there is activity around the building at all hours – not just when businesses are open, McVeigh said. Starbank Developments couldn’t be reached for comment before this newspaper’s deadline. The 882.5 square metre building will have 19 surface parking spaces at the western edge of the site, next to another building that’s for sale. Expanding the plaza with a longer building will occupy 33.5 metres of the total 60.5 m lot frontage. The current Beer Store only takes up 15 m of the frontage. Most projects listed on Starbank’s website are in the Toronto area, but Starbank also has a recent Ottawa project: the 2.8hectacre Fairlawn Centre commercial plaza on Carling Avenue near Woodroffe Avenue.
Mayor’s Report Reflecting on thRee YeaRs in office By Jim Watson It is hard to believe that it has been just over three years since our Council began its term. The time has flown by as my Council colleagues and I have tried our best to work together in a calm and professional manner to move the Ottawa forward on a number of fronts. As we begin the last year of our term, it is worth looking back on what we have accomplished so far. I campaigned in 2010 on a promise to limit any annual tax rate increase to a maximum of 2.5%. I am proud to say that we beat that target in each successive year: 2.45% in 2011, 2.39% in 2012, 2.09% in 2013, and just %1.9 for 2014. While controlling taxes, it is also important that we make the necessary investments in the future of our city. We must constantly upgrade roads, sidewalks, sewers and water mains and at the same time provide the services that everyone demands each and every day – police, fire, paramedics, libraries, parks and recreation facilities and programming, public transit, fresh water, waste removal and recycling, and much more. We have found a balance to do just this and also maintain Ottawa’s strong credit ratings. Over the past three years we have had projects of all sizes get off the ground that taken together are beginning to transform our City for the better. We managed to freeze recreation fees for four years to benefit young and old across the city and we have invested in libraries across Ottawa. Brand new recreation facilities have been completed in Kanata and Orleans and another is under construction in Barrhaven to better service our growing communities. In addition, the new Sensplex East will open in the fall of 2014 to bolster our city’s rink capacity for teams and skaters of all ages. On the larger scale, Lansdowne Park will open in the summer of 2014 replacing 26 acres of asphalt with a new urban park and mixed-use facility the city can be proud. We have invested $340 Million in road, sidewalk, bike lane, sewer and watermain infrastructure through our Ottawa on the Move program. This work has been disruptive for some but it is short-term pain for long-term gain and the more than 400 projects that are part of it will help bring our infrastructure and entire transportation system up to the level needed before the opening of our Light Rapid Transit system (LRT). The LRT is the single most important infrastructure project in our City since the digging of the Rideau Canal. After years of delay and false starts the mammoth $2.1 Billion 13km project is now under construction with a fixed-price contract and a route that will transform the way people move around our city. We have secured a world-class consortium of companies to do the work and I know we are all looking forward to the Confederation Line’s completion in 2018. Lastly, we have taken several proactive steps over the last three years to improve the accountability of city council. We have appointed an Integrity Commissioner and implemented a Council Code of Conduct, set up both lobbyist and gift registries, and made it so that Council expenses are posted online. This package of integrity measures has made us more accountable as elected officials and made us a leader in the province and Canada with regards to transparency at the municipal level. Most importantly, we did it because we wanted to, not because of scandal. I am proud of what this council has accomplished in our first three years of this term and I look forward to another great year in 2014. R0012496461-0109

Gearing up for 36th annual Winterlude This year is Canadian Heritage’s first year in charge of capital’s chilly celebration Michelle Nash
michelle.nash@metroland.com
News - Canadian Heritage promises to have a little something for everyone at this year’s 36th edition of the annual Winterlude festival. The festival will get underway on Jan. 31 at three official sites: the Rideau Canal Skateway, Confederation Park and Jacques-Cartier Park in Gatineau. There will also be a number of community events taking place across the city. “For this 36th festival, many partners from every corner of the country have come together to showcase our country’s sports, winter traditions, and artistic talent,” said Shelly Glover, minister of Heritage and Official Languages, at a press conference in December. Activities at the three main sites will include super slides, the 27th International Ice-Carving competition, the 31st annual Winterlude Triathlon, the Giant Tiger Interactive Hockey Zone and specialized events at the Canada Science and Technol-
ogy Museum. Along with the returning activities and events, Canadian Heritage said it will mark defining moments in Canada’s history during Winterlude. • For the 150th anniversary of the Charlottetown and Quebec conferences, Prince Edward Island and Quebec’s folk traditions will blend together with electronic music to create a “kitchen party” at Confederation Park. • Veterans Affairs Canada plans to present an ice sculpture made from 100 blocks of ice to mark the 100th anniversary of the start of the First World War. The sculpture will be unveiled during a lighting ceremony at Confederation Park. • The Snowflake Kingdom at Jacques-Cartier Park in Gatineau will feature winter sports and games, to celebrate the upcoming Olympic Winter Games in Sochi, Russia. The games will invite all ages to try their luck at a winter obstacle course, get photographed in a bobsled, learn to downhill ski, as well

Winterlude gets ready to launch on Jan. 31. Operated by Canadian Heritage this year, the festival will host a number of events at its official three locations as well as communities within the city. as meet with former members of the Canadian luge team. Culinary activities will also make a strong showing this year, with the 2014 Gatineau Winter Beerfest and the Fascinating World of Bread Making as well as the annual free
pancake breakfast on Feb. 1 at city hall. Celebrations will begin on Jan. 31 at 7 p.m. at Confederation Park. Much like last year, communities will also host individual events,
either in their neighbourhoods or in collaboration with Canadian Heritage at one of the three official sites. Next week, Ottawa East News will explore specific community events taking place downtown.

Newspapers had many uses in the Depression years MARY COOK Mary Cook’s Memories farmers, but offered plenty of news about what was going on at Parliament Hill, enough to cause Father to swear in German when he read it. The Family Herald and Weekly Star came from some far off place, and when it arrived in our mail box at the end of the lane, it was as exciting as getting the new issue of the Eaton’s catalogue. There were puzzles, pen pals to exchange letters with, a pattern Mother could send for 10 cents, and my favourite, a picture to be coloured with crayons. Mother’s Philadelphia Inquirer was of no interest to anyone but Mother. When she was finished with it, it looked like a piece of Swiss cheese. She spent hours clipping and pasting into her scrap books any mention of New York. Every scrap of newspaper,
once it had been read, was saved for another use. The papers were piled in the wood box beside the Findlay Oval at the ready. When the pile got too high, they were moved to the summer kitchen. The soot-covered lampshades on the coal oil lamps were cleaned with bunched up newspapers. This was a job I hated, but since I was the youngest, with the smallest arms, it was my duty to clean them. I hated the feel and the sound, which reminded me of a piece of chalk rubbed the wrong way on the blackboard at Northcote School. It didn’t take long for the first wipe to turn the paper black as ink. By the third wipe, you could at last see inside the glass shade, and by then my hand and arm right up to the elbow were covered with soot.
Newspapers were used to put a shine to the burners of the kitchen stove too. This was done when the fire had died down. Mother would take a blob of pork grease, dab it here and there on the lids, and with a big wad of newspaper, she would clean off the stove. The smell of singed grease would fill the kitchen, and Emerson, to add a bit of drama, would pretend he was choking to death, clutch his throat, and hold his breath until he turned red in the face. The smell would stay in the house until the next time the stove was stoked and the grease burned away. And of course, Father couldn’t start the fire in the morning without a good supply of newspapers from the wood box. They were scrunched up, the kindling put on top, then the smaller blocks of wood, the papers lit, and the stove was set for the day. The well-read newspapers got a real workout every Saturday morning too. Once the floors had been scrubbed, papers were spread out to keep the floors as clean as possible for as long as possible, which wasn’t long once winter had
Every newspaper that came into the house back in those Depression years went on to another life. It was recycling at its highest, long before the word was ever invented.

There was a use for every one of them. Every newspaper that came into the house back in those Depression years went on to another life. It was recycling at its highest, long before the word was ever invented.
It wasn’t unusual, if a pair of shoes came in the hand-medown box from Aunt Lizzie that were too big, for a wad of newspaper to be crammed in the toes. My three brothers always used several thicknesses of newspaper folded tightly and placed under their felt innersoles to help keep their feet dry in the winter. Always, when the stove wasn’t covered with boiling pots, sizzling fry pans, and the

white granite tea pot, sitting on the reservoir would be three or four bricks. When we were leaving the farm on a blistering cold day or night, the bricks were wrapped in thick layers of newspapers and then put at our feet in the cutter or sleigh to help keep us from freezing. We never had to just burn newspapers to get rid of them.
set in. To save the braided mats from taking the brunt of the snow off our boots, several layers of newspapers were spread out on the mats at the door, and when they were sodden through, rolled up, tucked back into the wood box to dry out, and then fed into the Findlay Oval, where they sizzled and spit in the fire.

ven though the Depression was all around us, and money was as scarce as hen’s teeth, there always seemed to be enough to have many newspapers come into our house in Renfrew County. The Renfrew Mercury and the Ottawa Farm Journal came as regular as clock-work, and the Family Herald and Weekly Star, thick as the sole of a boot, was delivered by the mail man and had something in it of interest to everyone in the family. As well, when Mother could spare the 25 cents, she brought home the Philadelphia Inquirer from Ritza’s Drug Store, just because there was plenty of news in it about her beloved New York. Every paper was read cover to cover. The Renfrew Mercury was a real farmer’s paper, with a spattering of social news, like who had visited who for afternoon tea, and of course, it was full of ads of the stores in Renfrew that were offering not-to-bemissed sales of the week, like long underwear for $1.

Bircher Muesli a Swiss favourite and filling Lifestyle - Oats are soaked beforehand instead of cooked in the morning, making it an ideal healthy breakfast for time-starved cooks. While the recipe originates in Switzerland, it makes use of Ontario’s apples, honey or maple syrup and calcium-rich dairy. Preparation time: five minutes. Soaking time: four hours. Serves two. Ingredients Nevil Hunt/Metroland
Going for a spin Victoria Crossman, 2, gets a hand from her mom Christina as they build a spinning top during Winter Frolick on the Farm, a series of Christmas break activities for families at the Canadian Agriculture and Food Museum. Kids also had a chance to watch breadmaking and try their hand at decorating gingerbread cookies.
• 125 ml (1/2 cup) large flake rolled oats (not instant) • 125 ml (1/2 cup) milk • 0.5 ml (1/8 tsp) cinnamon • 1 small apple (unpeeled) • 25 ml (2 tbsp) chopped almonds • 25 ml (2 tbsp) raisins, dried cranberries or chopped dried apricots • 50 ml (1/4 cup) plain or vanilla yogurt • 15 ml (1 tbsp) honey or maple syrup Preparation
In a medium bowl, combine
the oats, milk and cinnamon. Cover and refrigerate for at least four hours or overnight. Just before serving, dice the apple and stir it along with the almonds and raisins into the oatmeal mixture. Divide the mixture between bowls and
top with yogurt and drizzle with honey. Tip: Vary the fruit according to the seasons. Try other nuts or dried fruit to suit your taste. Foodland Ontario

the fuel tank near full will reduce the likelihood of gasoline or diesel condensation problems and will add extra weight for improved traction and handling. Please remember posted speed limits are for optimal road and weather conditions only and extra time should be factored in to any winter trek.
With this time of increased travel, busy highways, and less than ideal weather and road conditions, the Benson team wants to remind everyone to plan ahead for trips no matter what the distance. Take extra time to clear all vehicle windows, exterior lights and surfaces of snow and ice. Make sure your auto has plenty of washer fluid, winter tires, and an emergency roadside kit. Pack cargo, luggage, and gifts with care, because, in the event of a collision, anything loose in the passenger compartment can become a fast-moving projectile which can cause injury. Keeping
The Benson automotive stores will be closed on Christmas Day, Boxing Day, and New Year’s Day to allow their staff to enjoy the holiday time with family and loved ones. Your automotive needs are always on the top of the Benson Group’s list and their outlets’ experts will make sure that you have the right part at the right time for the best price available.

Seniors building proposed for 800 Montreal Road Michelle Nash
michelle.nash@metroland.com
News - A proposal for a seven-storey retirement home on Montreal Road is among the items on the planning committee agenda on Jan. 14. The proposal for a 180room senior living building is part of a larger redevelopment project for 800 Montreal Rd. Purchased by Canada Lands Company in 2007, the former forestry research building has been parcelled off into four pieces and sold off individually. This development is part of the onehectare property CLC divided into four blocks, with townhomes to the south and an 11-storey apartment building to the west. The eastern portion of the site has been purchased by All Seniors Capital Care Limited, which is in the process of submitting a site plan proposal to develop an Lshaped retirement residence building. Spokeswoman Marie France Lalonde said the proposal aims help fill the demand for more seniors living in the city’s east end. “We found that there was a greater need in the east end
Michelle Nash/Metroland
All Seniors Capital Care is proposing to build a 180-room unit retirement residence on a parcel of land located at the former Forintek forestry research building at 800 Montreal Rd. The development proposal will go to planning committee on Jan. 14. of Ottawa and the company is focused on providing living residence for people to age in place,” Lalonde said. “The building will have individual units as well as assisted living.” The company owns and operates 22 seniors living residences across Canada, with three projects currently
under construction. The Montreal Road project, Lalonde said, will be a great addition, with its close proximity to the Montfort Hospital, shops and restaurants. “We feel we will be a part of a community,” she said. “Being close to the hospital, we see this as a great advan-
tage for seniors.” The company is seeking some zoning amendments, including a reduction to the minimum interior side yard setback from 7.5 metres to the current city standard of 6.5 metres. It’s also looking to add parking for the building, which Lalonde explained is because many seniors who move in own a car. “We want to ensure there is enough parking for residents, staff and guests,” she said. The building design Lalonde said would be similar in style and size to a couple of the company’s other developments in Beacon Heights and Chapel Hill. “It will look comparable to the other buildings, but we also try to adapt based on the other buildings in the neighbourhood,” Lalonde said. The former governmentowned site at 800 Montreal Rd. is changing quickly. Before purchased by Canada Lands, the original 1950sera building and property served as the eastern base for the government’s forest products laboratory. The forestry program closed in 1978, and soon after the private forestry research non-profit company Forintek
leased the building until it ceased operation in 1994. Canada Lands consulted with area residents in preparation of the type of development for the large area. The administration building was recognized by the Federal Heritage Building Review Office in 1997. All the non-heritage portions of the building were demolished in 2008. Currently of the four parcels of land, three parcels are either under construction or going through the city’s application process for development. The forth parcel, which includes the heritage building, is still being advertised for sale. Facing Den Haag Drive, an 11-storey affordable housing project is currently under construction. Owned by OCISO Non-profit Housing Corporation, the project is scheduled to be complete by this summer. After receiving approval in May 2012, Valecraft Homes has constructed townhomes fronting Den Haag and LeBoutillier Avenue. A meeting concerning Valecraft’s second phase of construction for 22 rear-lane townhomes will take place on Jan. 15 from 6:30 to 8:30
p.m. at Collège catholique Samuel-Genest, room 181. According to Valcraft’s plans on the city’s website, the new phase of development will consist of three buildings. Each will be served by this proposed private laneway, to be known as Matador Private. The buildings will be three and a half storeys in height, with two of the buildings fronting on LeBoutiller and one facing an internal walkway. It is the developer’s intention for Matador Private and the walkway to form the common elements of this condominium. Lalonde said the company is excited to be a part of this large-scale development. “I think its going to be beautiful,” she said. “We feel we will be part of a concept. When people move here, maybe they will live in one of the townhomes, and at some point in the future, move into our building. This will give people the choice to stay within the community of their choice.” Both the All Seniors Capital Care’s and Valcraft’s applications are available to view on the city’s development application website.

Park getting artistic touch Lowertown site to benefit from Sussex Drive rebuild Michelle Nash
michelle.nash@metroland.com
News - The city will be issuing a call this year to artists to help brighten up one of Lowertown’s oldest parks. Submissions from artists or groups of artists for a $160,000 public art commission for Bingham Park are now being accepted. The winning artist or artists
will be selected in early May, with the installation scheduled to be completed by spring 2015. The project was initially proposed as part of the Sussex Drive reconstruction project. With limited streetscape space on Sussex, however, the city asked area residents to help choose another area nearby that could benefit from an art installation.

“The artwork will be innovative and forward thinking in its design and will celebrate public art as practiced on the highest level of artistic excellence and complement the park design,” said Nicole Zuger, a program manager for the arts and heritage development. Marc Aubin, president of the Lowertown Community Association, said he encouraged the city to choose Bingham Park because of both its proximity to Sussex and its historic character. According to Zuger, the vision for the project will reflect these elements. “We had an initial meeting with (the city),” Aubin said. “They were very kind; however, those who attended made it clear that they want to see the area and its history strongly reflected in the art. They also would like strong consideration given to functional art, such as a fanciful gateway entrance.” Citing a difference of opinion on the significance the art project connected with the

Public art, like that recently installed on King Edward Avenue, could soon be coming to Lowertown’s Bingham Park. The city is putting out a call to artists for proposals. recent Rideau Street development, Aubin said he hoped this project would connect better with the community. “I am greatly concerned that our interests will be shuffled aside like they were in the Rideau renewal art project and that this will become another exercise in praising elitist artists,” Aubin said. “However, this time we will have area residents on the steering committee, so I do hope to see something much, much better this time. I won’t be as patient if I see proposals that have no
connection with our area.” Consultation for the project will begin in April, where residents can give some feedback on the shortlisted artist proposals. The artwork, Zuger said, will integrate seamlessly with the site, with space, nearby homes and park use taken into consideration to whatever art project is picked. Aside from adding a bit of art in the park, Bingham Park is already scheduled for some changes. With funding from a local non-profit organization,
the Chance Foundation, and a matching city grant, the park will see upgrades worth about $75,000. Included in those plans are new play structure for older children, more benches and landscaping. Zuger said she has been working closely with the city’s parks and recreation planner for Bingham Park, taking its timeline into consideration. More information about the city’s art renewal projects is available on the city’s website, ottawa.ca.

Tobogganing and Sledding Safety Winter recreational activities are plentiful in Canada’s Capital. Popular winter activities include sledding and tobogganing. Unfortunately, every year, hundreds of people are injured and may require medical attention. Ottawa Public Health (“OPH”) wants everyone to have fun in the snow but reminds us that risks do exist. Here are a few OPH tips for staying safe while tobogganing and sledding this winter: Do… • Check the weather and physical conditions of the hill to ensure it is safe • Select a hill with a gentle slope and plenty of room to stop • Sled during daylight, and if you’re out at night don’t slide unless the hill is well lit • Choose a sled or toboggan that is easy to control • Wear a CSA helmet • Accompany any child under five on the toboggan • Keep an eye out for oncoming sledders and quickly get out of the way at the bottom • Climb back up the hill by keeping to the side. Don’t… • Use hills that are closed, have signs that say they are unsafe, or have too many obstacles • Use hills that are too steep or too icy • Build ramps and jumps • Attempt to stop the toboggan with your hands and feet if you lose control Your Strong Voice at City Hall As always, I appreciate hearing from you and encourage you to keep in touch with me as it allows me to serve you better. It is an honour and a privilege being your strong voice at City Hall.

New guided sleigh rides along the canal to be offered Michelle Nash
michelle.nash@metroland.com
News - The National Capital Commission ended 2013 with an icy finish - opening the Rideau Canal Skateway for the 44th season on Dec. 31. The opening of 3.2 kilometres of the 7.8 km Rideau Canal Skateway, between Concord and Bank streets, was the earliest start to the season on the world’s largest outdoor skating rink in more than a decade. Marc Corriveau, director of urban lands and transportation for the NCC, marked the opening by raising the NCC flag at the Fifth Avenue gate and rest area. “The NCC, and its skateway operations team, contractors and concession operators are proud and happy to bring visitors and residents of the capital this absolutely unique Canadian winter experience,” he said. The remaining 4.6 km, Corriveau said, will open in the upcoming weeks, if not sooner. Even though weather dipped down to -20 C on New Year’s Eve, skaters braved the cold to get their first skate in on the canal. Typically, the skateway opens in mid- or late-January,

The National Capital Commission’s Marc Corriveau gets ready to hoist the customary green flag on Dec. 31 which announces the Rideau Canal Skateway is officially open. but Corriveau credited this year’s early opening to December’s cold snap.
As part of the official opening the NCC, in collaboration with Ottawa Rickshaws, announced
new guided sleigh tours. The skateway first opened in 1970, with a five km skating surface. The success of that first season saw the NCC work at expanding it to the current 7.8 km stretch. Close to 1,500 Christmas trees recovered from Ottawaarea business will be on display in all the rest areas as well concession stands, skate and sleigh rentals and shelters will be located along the canal. According to the NCC, the skateway sees an average of 20,000 visitors every day and just under a million visits every year. The skateway will also play host for the city’s annual winter festival, Winterlude, as one of the festival three main sites. Winterlude takes place from Jan. 31 to Feb. 17. Change rooms and washrooms are open from 8 a.m. to 10 p.m. from Sunday to Thursday, and from 8 a.m. to 11 p.m. on Friday and Saturday. They are located on the ice near Mackenzie King Bridge, Concord Street North, Fifth Avenue, Bronson Bridge, Dows Lake (on both the skateway and at the Pavilion), Patterson Creek (on land, not universally accessible from the ice) Food and beverage concessions, picnic tables, first aid, skate patrollers, lost and found and skate rentals are also available along the skateway.

Poem puts modern-day slavery into perspective Sabine Gibbins sabine.gibbins@metroland.com
SUBMITTED
Riverside South resident Mirjana Villeneuve learned about modern-day slavery as she worked on her poem, The Girl Who Cried Snowflakes, for PACT-Ottawa’s first ever writing contest.
News – When I was young, I saw the stars, and drew them with yellow crayon, on the inside cover, of a library book. So begins Mirjana Villeneuve’s poem titled “The Girl Who Cried Snowflakes,” which examines the harsh reality surrounding modern day slavery. It was a subject Mirjana, who lives in Riverside South, did not know much about initially. When
the Grade 11 St. Francis Xavier High School student found out about a writing contest being organized through Persons Against the Crime of Trafficking of Humans - Ottawa, she knew she had to enter. Mirjana ended up winning first prize in the creative writing contest. Her school’s social justice club promoted the contest. PACT Ottawa held their first annual writing contest for an End Slavery Day event held on Dec. 2. Prizes were awarded for the top three winners.
Mirjana said she entered the contest because of her passion for writing, and because she wanted to be educated on a subject she knew very little about. “I’m always looking for ways to raise awareness about social justice issues, and this seemed like a good opportunity,” she said. “I’m not involved in any organizations to deal with modern day slavery, and I hadn’t really heard much about this issue until I entered the contest. Actually, I learned most of what I know now about modern
day slavery at the event.” She said she enjoyed the challenge of writing the poem while ensuring her facts were all correct. “I spend most of my time writing or thinking about things I could write about,” she said. “I live to write.” The contest also encouraged the normally shy Mirjana to step outside her comfort zone and read the poem out loud to the audience. “I’m actually quite an introvert, so I usually hate drawing attention to myself,” she said. “I had to read my poem for everyone at the event, and that was miles out of my comfort zone.” POWERFUL POEM

Sarah Sambles, a member of PACT Ottawa who was the lead reviewer for the contest entries, said the panel chose Mirjana’s poem because it was both powerful and touching. “The reader wants to know how someone can cry snowflakes,” she said. The poet’s writing style caught the eye of judges. “The writing style takes the reader on a journey from an innocent, dayto-day image of a child drawing, in which the writing style is more prosaic, to a more violent and jarring description of the abuse, where the writing style becomes more poetic with the use similes and unusual choice of adjectives,” said Sambles. The poem’s ending is profound; ending with an explanation of what it means to cry snowflakes, she said. “The choice of snowflake imagery helps communicate the idea that abuse stops someone from being who they are, it ‘freezes’ them,” Sambles said. The contest was launched this year with a mission to encourage young people to learn more about human trafficking, harness the creativity and energy of young people and inspire them to talk about the issue, raise awareness of the crime and help prevent it. Creative writing styles included not only a letter, but a song, short story, personal essay or memoir, or film script/play. “When it came to judging the contest, we were looking at an original and sensitive approach to the topic, effective communication, engaging, its literary style, written style suiting the medium chosen, and the entry being realistic and accurate.” “Overall, we were very impressed with the maturity and creativity of all the entries.” Mirjana said she was honoured to be chosen as the winner and receiving feedback on her writing is icing on the cake. “It’s always nice to hear that someone likes my writing, so it was really an honour to win,” she said. “I love writing, and I want to do something to help the people in this world who are suffering. So if I can do both at the same time, that is amazing.”

See new Points of View at Kanata gallery exhibit Multi-artist show debuted on Jan. 8 Jessica Cunha jessica.cunha@metroland.com
Arts - Everyone has a different point of view – and the public is invited to see the way the Kanata Civic Art Gallery’s artists observe the world this month. The newest exhibit at the non-profit gallery is entitled “Points of View” and will feature a host of artworks by various artists. “What’s really nice about our gallery is there are so many different (types of art),” said gallery member Judi Miller. “We’re all different. Each of us brings a different point of view to our work.” Discussing the exhibit just before Christmas, Miller said she was unsure what she might display but had plans to create some new pieces. “I’m actually going to try and do something over the holidays. We’ll have to see,” she said. “I’m thinking some kind of panorama, a distant vista.”
Miller creates her three-dimensional works of art with a mixture of paints and embroidery. She uses fabric paint for the background then a sewing machine to free-hand stitch the detail. ARTIST SUBMISSIONS
There is no feature artist at the gallery for the month of January – instead, new members will be juried in during the first week of the month. New members are juried in by third party artists who do not belong to the gallery. “We have quite a handful of artist submissions for new artists. We’re really excited about that,” said Miller. The Points of View exhibit begins on Jan. 8 and runs until Feb. 2. The Kanata Civic Art Gallery is located in the Mlacak Centre, which is at 2500 Campeau Dr. While the West District Library is under construction, a temporary entrance is set up at the arena, to the left of the main doors. For more information and hours of operation, visit kanatagallery.ca.

Orléans wrestler Devon Nicholson recently found out that an experimental treatment he received for hepatitis C was successful.
Negative result a positive ending for Orléans wrestler Brier Dodge brier.dodge@metroland.com
News - After a long string of disappointing results, Devon Nicholson finally got the negative he wanted. Nicholson, from Orléans, wrestled professionally and contracted hepatitis C, a life-threatening disease often transmitted through the blood. He has spent much of the past year undergoing an aggressive experimental treatment, loaded with negative side effects. He decided to undergo the treatment after consulting with specialists at the American Mayo Clinic. Called Incivek triple therapy, doctors at the Civic campus of the Ottawa Hospital pumped Nicholson full of heavier doses of the medications normally used to treat his disease, as well as new medications. Side effects can include extreme insomnia, weight lost, mental issues and intense itching. The first time through the 36-week treatment, he had to stop on week 19.
This second time around, he made it through the 36 weeks. “It was a nightmare-ish ordeal,” he said. And now his final test results have come back negative for hepatitis C, meaning the wrestler is cured. “That means the whole hepatitis C order for me, is completely over,” he said. “It wasn’t there at three months (after treatment), and it’s not here at six months. He said the only way for him to test positive again would be to contract the disease a second time. The diagnosis made him press the pause button on his dream of wrestling for World Wrestling Entertainment – and it made him ineligible. After having to leave professional wrestling, he went on to win a medal at the Olympic trials in Greco-Roman wrestling, before starting his hepatitis C treatment. He hasn’t ruled out returning to the WWE, and would be eligible to try if he passes medical screening and drug tests by the WWE’s doctors.
For now, he’s training with a Montreal-based coach for Greco-Roman wrestling, and will be competing at this year’s national championship. He’s also returning to professional wrestling in May during an event in Smiths Falls. Nicholson starred in Orléans filmaker Max Moskal’s documentary This is Hannibal. In the film, Nicholson alleged that he contracted hepatitis C from another wrestler, Larry Shreve, who goes by the name Abdullah the Butcher. According to Nicholson, Shreve cut him with a blade during a wrestling match, passing on the disease. The allegations have not been proven in court. He’s taking Shreve to court in a case that is due to start March 31. But for now, Nicholson has one negative to celebrate – being cured of the disease that has changed so much of his life. “That was the biggest fight hopefully I’ll ever have,” he said. “I’m just happy it’s over.”

City mends broken fences with Kanata man Jessica Cunha

Broken splinters of fence sit in the snow in Terry Currie’s backyard.

Last year, Currie spent 200 days in the hospital and had to relearn basic tasks such as eating and dressing.
“I’m doing speech therapy, occupation therapy,” said Currie. “I’m getting better.” Currie, currently on leave from his job as an off-ice official for the NHL, took photographs of the broken fence and called the city to report

the incident. The city assessed the damage, put up a temporary chain-link fence and removed the piled snow the following day, he said, adding the city said it would repair the fence in the spring.

News - When Terry Currie looked out his upstairs’ window on Dec. 30, he saw a large gaping hole in his backyard fence. His house at the corner of Cedarock and Bridgestone drives was missing two sections of his wooden fence – still spread across his backyard in broken splinters. Plows had been piling snow against his fence to clear the sidewalks and either the weight of the snow or the plow itself must have broken the fence, said Currie. “I don’t know how he knocked it down,” said the 52-year-old Bridlewood man. He worried about letting his pug, Alfie, in the backyard. Having suffered a stroke last May and a seizure this past December, Currie couldn’t take the dog out himself. The seizure caused him to lose his hearing, which is why he didn’t hear or notice the fence break until he looked out his window. “With all the stuff that happened in 2013 – the stroke,
claim with the city and they’ll come out and inspect it,” said Hubley. “We get lots of reports of damage but often it’s (done by) contractors. But if you make a claim we’ll do our best to look into it.” The city generally only operates plows on main streets, while contractors are brought in for side streets and sidewalks, said Hubley. If it’s discovered the damage was inflicted by a contractor, then they will be held accountable, he said. Hubley added that councillors aren’t allowed to get involved in the claim process since it’s a legal issue. “I don’t actually get to know how often that happens in Kanata,” he said. “From what I’ve been told, it’s not all that common.” Last winter, a sidewalk contractor damaged all the newly planted cedar hedges along Stonehaven Drive near the roundabout by blowing snow and salt on the saplings, said Hubley. He added that the trees will likely be replaced this year. To file a claim with the city, call 311 or visit ottawa.ca.
