News - New beds of yellow roses at city hall are meant to bring attention to a little-known piece of Canadian history. The flowers surrounding the Elgin Street entrance to city hall’s heritage building are Ghent roses, created in 1815 to honour the Treaty of Ghent. The treaty brought an end to the War of 1812 when it was signed in the city of Ghent in the province of East Flanders, Belgium. “It is not widely known, indeed, that war was brought to a close in that city,” said Bruno van der Pluijim, outgoing ambassador of the Kingdom of

Belgium, as he helped unveil the garden on July 14. To mark the war’s bicentennial anniversary in 2012, the Belgium embassy suggested donating 144 of the rose bushes to adorn city hall’s lawn. It was a “long road” to complete the garden, van der Pluijim said during his remarks at the unveiling, including a last-minute scramble when the plants were almost turned away at the United States-Canada border when all the required documents weren’t in order. A ring of poppies and ornamental bushes complete the garden. The rose garden is in a fitting location at the newly named Nelson Mandela Square, in the shadow of the Human Rights monument. Along with the Second Peace of Paris Treaty that was also signed in 1815, the Treaty of Ghent was one of the first international treaties to acknowledge human rights by declaring the slave trade “irreconcilable with the principles of humanity and justice.”

Male shot in leg on Ritchie Street Police search for suspects in city’s 21st shooting of 2014 Michelle Nash

michelle.nash@metroland.com

News - Another man was shot in the leg in Ottawa, this time in the city’s west end. This is the fourth shooting which has involved a gunshot wound to the leg in the less than a month in the city and the 21st shooting this year. The last shooting occurred on July 17 in Ottawa’s south end. According to Ottawa Paramedic spokesman J.P. Trottier, the man was about 20 years-old and shot once in one leg on Ritchie Street at around 3 p.m. on July 21. The man was taken to the Civic campus of the Ottawa Hospital and was in serious but stable condition. This is not the first time a shooting has occurred on Ritchie Street. Last May, another man, Malik Adjokatcher, 24, was shot and killed in a Ritchie Street townhouse in the early morning of May 15, 2013. Although Adjokatcher was not in a gang, at the time police suspected gang members

Because of this, residents of Michele Heights, Britannia Woods and surrounding neighbourhoods held a meeting to discuss the situation shortly after the shooting. At this time, police are not saying whether the

shootings are related and the investigation is ongoing. Anyone with information about the July 21 shooting is asked to call the Ottawa police guns and gangs section at 613-236-1222, ext. 5050.

• 2013 – There were 30 shootings in total in the city with at least 12 of those shooting considered gang related according to police. • 2012 – There were 32 shootings in total in the city with at least 15 of those shootings considered gang related • 2011 – There were 23 shootings in total in the city with at least eight considered to be gang related.

Ottawa gets invaded by British

3:50:04 PM

City hosts annual North America MG sports cars meeting Michelle Nash

michelle.nash@metroland.com

Michelle Nash/Metroland

Favouring an out-of-country car to an Ottawa-owned MG, Mayor Jim Watson makes his official ‘Mayor’s choice’ picking a 1956 MG 1500 from Virginia, U.S. More than 120 British sports cars filled up the front lawn at the Canada Science and Technology Museum on July 16.

News - Ottawa was subjected to a British invasion last week – an attack mounted by a fleet of small vintage sports cars. More than 120 Morris Garages (MG) sports cars, coupes and saloons took over the city during the final leg of this year’s North American MGA Register’s Annual Get-Together. For many of the MG owners, the cruise started in Victoria on July 5 and ended up in Ottawa on July 14.

Once in the capital, MG owners had a week full of activities, including a city drive, and for the first time, a car show open to the public at the Canada Science and Technology Museum on July 16, which drew hundreds of spectators and car enthusiasts. Organized by the Ottawa MG Club, Andy Bounsall, chairman of the club, said creating the car show was an addition the Ottawa chapter thought would be a good way to include all of Ottawa in the event. Hosting the event at the Canada Science and Technology Museum, Bounsall said was a natural fit. “They have been really great, and it’s the perfect place to have the car show,” he said. North American MGA Register’s Annual Get-together is held in a different city each year. Last year it was

held in Asheville, N.C., located more than 1,500 kilometres south of Ottawa, a trip Bounsall happily made in his 1956 MGA 1500. Bringing the cruise to his home town this time around, Bounsall said, is an awesome feeling. “Here there is a mix of the MG group and friends and family and it’s really great to have them all in one place,” he said. Bounsall bought his MG 13 years ago on eBay with the blessing of his wife – who later admitted to him had only said yes thinking he would be outbid by another classic car lover. “I had drooled over them for many years and then started to look for one for myself,” he said. Unfortunately for her, Bounsall said, his wife was wrong and he quickly drove south to New York state to pick up his new toy. Since his purchase, Bounsall joined the Ottawa MG Club and began annual trips to the meetings until the North America club asked if Ottawa would host it this year, the first time the organization has come to Canada in five years. MG owners from all over North America made the trek to Ottawa to check out the capital, go for a drive along the Rockcliffe Parkway and see the sights. Wrapping up the week-long event, the host club offered an old time drive-in movie at the Courtyard Marriott hotel on Coventry Road where the majority of the group was staying and the annual general meeting was held on July 18.

Collision reporting now ‘self-serve’ with new centre $3,00 Adam Kveton

involved in the collision waiting on the side of the road in a potentially dangerous situation. “That collision can hold up thousands of people who are on their way somewhere else,” added McLaren. Now motorists can get their vehicles out of the way, go about their life and report their collision within 24 hours. MacLaren said the process reflects the kind of “self-serve” society we live in today. “While people may think that they may want to wait for police on the side of the road, this is a priority four call for police, so it’s going to be up to two hours for them to actually arrive at the scene, and then once they get there, there will be a lengthy time to process the report,” she said. The way collisions are reported has also changed, she said. Instead of officers submitting an all-paper report, the document is now electronic,

of Rideau River, Dow’s Lake and Island Park Drive) can call 613-230-6211 for instructions on how to handle their collision. Those in collisions involving injuries should continue calling 911, said McLaren. The other two Collision Reporting Centres, located at 474 Elgin St. and 3343 St. Joseph Blvd., are expected to be open by the end of the year.

In this new system, officers can make a determination of who is at fault based on the motorists’ statements and photographs of the damages done to the vehicles. “So the investigation is done up front with the best evidence,” she said. Motorists involved in noninjury collisions in Ottawa’s west division (anywhere west

with officers taking high-resolution photos at the collision reporting centre and including those in their report. In the case of low-priority collisions, the value of having a police officer go to the scene is fairly low, said McLaren, as the vehicles will have likely been moved and a lot of evidentiary value will have already been lost.

News - A new Ottawa police program has motorists reporting 70 per cent of collisions to new reporting centres, the first of which opened July 14, 2014 in the west end of Kanata. The Collision Reporting Centre initiative looks to save police money and time by having motorists involved in noninjury collisions, which make up about 70 per cent of all collisions, report to the centre rather than wait for police to arrive at the scene. The program, in the works for the last two-and-a-half years, should save police $1.6 million a year, and 8,600 hours of patrol time. It will also get collisions cleared off roads quicker, said Insp. Sandra McLaren who is leading the new program’s implementation. “It enables you to save your own time,” she said. Before now, about 22 per cent of collisions were reported by motorists involved in the accident, said McLaren. Those were non-injury collisions where the vehicles involved were still driveable. Motorists involved in the collision then have to report immediately to the same police station. In an effort to make the process more efficient and more convenient for drivers, Ottawa police are now allowing motorists to report their collision within 24 hours, and not require those involved to report at the same time. The changes through the new program also allow for collisions where a vehicle is not

driveable to be self-reported as well. Vehicles can be towed to one of three Collision Reporting Centres, two of which have yet to be opened. The centre opened July 14 at 211 Huntmar Dr. in Stittsville. When all three are open, police project 13,000 of Ottawa’s 18,000 annual collisions could be self-reported. “The reaction from the public has been superb,” said McLaren after several days of the centre being in full operation. That reflects the reaction the program received when it first started, she said. “The overwhelming feedback we got from motorists in general was, ‘Thank goodness you are going to get these collisions off the road.’” Non-injury collisions are not a high priority for police, meaning getting a police officer on the scene can take 30 minutes on average, and up to two hours, leaving motorists

No money for Clegg Street crosswalk: NCC chief Issue will have to be addressed in the fall budget process, Kristmanson says Michelle Nash

michelle.nash@metroland.com

Michelle Nash/Metroland

Mayor Jim Watson, left, and National Capital Commission chief executive Mark Kristmanson test out the new crosswalk at Fifth Avenue and Queen Elizabeth Driveway. The signaled crosswalk opened on July 15, only days before the TD Place Stadium at Lansdowne Park will open for the first RedBlacks game on July 18. The speed in which this latest crossing was completed was noted by Glebe Community Association traffic committee chairman Brian Mitchell, who said there is no question it was completed quickly

because of the impending opening of the new stadium. “This is great,” Mitchell said. “It’s what the community has been waiting for, for years.” Watson said he feels the

crossing will offer safety not just for game days, but throughout the year and the new intersection responds to the needs of the community. “It’s always been a risk to cross,” he said.

News - Residents in Old Ottawa East are going to have to wait a little while longer for a safe crossing at Clegg Street and Colonel By Drive, near the Rideau Canal. The latest safe crossing initiative by the National Capital Commission and the city, a new signalled crosswalk at Fifth Avenue and Queen Elizabeth Driveway, became fully operational on July 15, a mere two months after the commission held its first and only open house on the crossing and days before the RedBlacks hit the field at TD Place Stadium for the first time on July 18.

The National Capital Commission officially opened the new crossing on July 15, with both Mayor Jim Watson and NCC chief executive Mark Kristmanson on hand to test the crossing. At the event, John Dance, president of the Ottawa East Community Association, asked Kristmanson when a new crossing would be constructed at Clegg. Kristmanson said it was a priority, but funding for the crossing would be addressed in the commission’s capital budget in the fall. Dance said the crossing at Clegg is incredibly unsafe and added he hoped the speedy work managed for the crossing close to Lansdowne could

be repeated once again for Old Ottawa East residents. “We’ve waited too long,” Dance said. “There is twice the amount of traffic over there. It should be done soon.” Much like the crossing at Fifth and Queen Elizabeth, the crossing at Clegg and Colonel By was identified as a place where a safe crossing is needed in the Rideau Canal corridor. In total, in the Rideau Canal Corridor Pedestrian Crossings Study conducted in 2011, 14 crossings were identified with the NCC currently prioritizing four spots; Fifth Avenue, Hartwell Locks, Dow’s Lake and Clegg Street on the Colonel By side. Prior to the crossing at Fifth, the Hartwell Locks crossing was complete late last year, but the latest crossing is the first to have both cycling lanes and a signal for pedestrians.

Turning away from democracy

wo separate situations, occurring within days of one another, point to a dangerous trend away from democratic principles. The first has to do with the never-ending Carp dump saga. The corporation wants it. The people don’t. The corporation wins. Despite some 20 public meetings, dozens of residents’ submissions, the rise of opposition citizen groups, 18 council-backed recommendations from the city, and a hand delivered list from Mayor Jim Watson to the environment minister, the provincial government caved to Waste Management’s demand. Recently, as a last slap in the face to the democratic will of the people, city council voted in favour of the dump expansion. Council knew the city didn’t need another dump; Waste Management thought otherwise. But the city would have lost at the Ontario Municipal Board. Forget that council felt its hands were tied. Forget that a mockery was made of the democratic process. The corporation got what it wanted, no matter who it hurt.

The second case involved a cell tower. Rogers wanted it built next to 120 homes in Crown Point, far into Ottawa’s rural west end. Like the dump, property values would likely drop. But unlike the dump, the corporation listened to the protesters to the extent that it agreed to move the tower down the road. However, it is important to note that Rogers could have ignored the will of the people and the city’s suggestions, and instead appeal to Industry Canada. It could have gotten that cell tower built wherever it could find a landlord. It is only business interests that caused it to relent. A homeowner whose house would have been 40 feet away from the cell tower called the situation draconian. “How can Industry Canada just ignore what would happen to our property values?” said Vince Thompson. Good question. What to call this shift away from democracy and protection of citizens? When profit trumps all, another step is taken toward “corporatocracy.”

What else can we implode around here?

round here, the most watched computer video lately is the implosion of the Sir John Carling Building. The taking down of the building was spectacular, apparently flawless and way more fun to watch on the Internet than kittens. For reasons that are difficult to explain, the event drew hundreds of spectators at 7 a.m. on a Sunday morning and thousands more watched it on television and various online news sites. Perhaps the explanation for the video’s popularity is as simple as this: you get to watch a big explosion and nobody gets hurt. An intriguing aspect of one of the videos was a brief interview after the implosion with an official from the U.S. company that handled the demolition. “We want to come back,”

CHARLES GORDON Funny Town she said. Hmmm. Are more implosions are ahead for Ottawa? Although there were few serious objections to taking down the Sir John Carling Building, which nobody seemed to want, it is worth noting that the building wasn’t all that old. It was built in 1967. A lot of us were built well before that and we’re still standing.

ing down. The next one could appear perfectly fine to you, just as Sir John Carling did to the naked eye. According to newspaper reports, it was discovered as early as 1994 that the building was showing signs of neglect and might not be worth saving. That’s 27 years after it was built. Even the 47 years that have elapsed between construction and destruction don’t seem that long. Certainly many of the houses we live in are older than that and are doing just fine. So what do we learn from this? Is it that we need to look after our buildings better? Or is it that there is a rather brief planned obsolescence built into our newer structures? Could be either.

having the Agriculture Department all in one place on Carling Avenue. If the government was committed to the concept, it would have looked after the building better. Governments, like people, can be fickle. Meanwhile, keep your eyes peeled out at the airport for Americans in hardhats. What will they implode next? You probably have candidates of your own, such as most of Queen Street and many big box stores. Remember that the offending building need not be all that old. And it doesn’t have to be ugly. The Sir John Carling building, designed by the distinguished architect Hart Massey, certainly had its admirers. Yes, I can see you there with your hand raised. The Senate, you say. Well, there will be a lot of sympathy for that point of view. But think it through. It’s true we might not miss the institution and many of its inhabitants, but think about what might

rise in its place. Right, it would be one of those glass things, with ornamentation meant to symbolize this and that. By contrast, the Centre Block, where the Senate sits now, looks quite nice. We just have to put something different there.

the truth is, really, it’s not luck. It’s not. There is nothing lucky about my children being well behaved. We talk a lot about etiquette at our house. That includes how the children are meant to dress for a particular occasion – a wedding, a soccer game, a dinner with neighbours. That includes how they should answer adults when asked questions, including

using Mr. And Mrs. or Auntie and Uncle, unless invited to do otherwise. It means reminding them that we believe there is a hierarchy in society. That older adults deserve the most reverence and respect, that children need to listen well, especially to adults that may be harder to understand or have accents, and that they need to work hard to find common ground with people in order to make good conversation. That means listening, really listening, in order to ask appropriate follow-up

questions in conversation. It means soliciting for their own charitable causes and writing thank you notes. It also means us reminding the children in advance of an occasion specifically what will be expected of them. A recent example: “You will address so-and-so’s parents as Dr. and Mrs X. You will sit quietly on their sofa. You will not gorge yourself on cookies, but may take a second if offered. You will offer to help clear the dishes.” See TIME, page 10

Last Friday marked a special occasion in Canada’s Capital. For the first time in almost a decade and in the presence of Prime Minister Stephen Harper, Ottawa hosted a CFL game at TD Place in our newly renovated Lansdowne Park. You could feel electricity in the air as we anticipated seeing our REDBLACKS playing at home for the first time! The evening was spectacular and the REDBLACKS came out on top with a last minute field goal late in the 4th. Congratulations to our Ottawa Fury FC who debuted at TD Place last Sunday. The Fury set a North American Soccer League (NASL) attendance record of 14,593 in their first game at Lansdowne Park. Wow! Special thanks to City staff and the Ottawa Sports and Entertainment Group (OSEG) for working in partnership to ensure that our stunning new facility opened on time.

Greening the Traffic Island – Planting Continues in Carlington This spring, the City began landscaping along Carling Avenue at the Merivale Road/Carling Avenue traffic island. New trees were the first additions in early June and the landscaping is almost complete with the addition of topsoil, sod, and the planting of shrubs, perennials, and annuals. Our newly greened island will serve as a striking gateway to Carlington and is a welcome addition to the beautiful surroundings resulting from the major reconstruction of Carling Avenue that took place a few years ago. Thank you again to Carlington residents who provided their input at our landscaping planning session that took place last fall. If you are interested in planting next season’s annuals, please let me know.

It sounds very Victorian. Because most of the time at home the kids are footloose and fancy free, like many parents, I worry. Are the kids remembering to say please and thank you? Are they helping out at their friends’ houses to tidy or wash dishes or help out with a younger sibling? Because they don’t always do it at home. But recent reports suggest my kids are doing okay. More than okay. I have to say, that

makes me feel good as a parent. And I pass on the compliments to the kids so they know their positive behaviour has been well received. I don’t always find the same thing when other kids come here. I find most kids are picky eaters, they don’t say please and thank you, they’re overly familiar, they talk too much, they’re demanding, and they don’t help out. Are good manners a lost art? If so, what can we do to create a renaissance?

Vanier BIA launches new cigarette collecton bins First in city to test out new product developed by University of Ottawa students Michelle Nash

michelle.nash@metroland.com

News - Quarter Vanier wants more people to butt out. New cigarette bins were unveiled on July 16 as part of the business improvement area’s new initiative. Partnering with a company called Cigbins, the BIA will install bins along the three main commercial streets in the area in an effort to stop cigarette butts from being tossed on the streets and sidewalks. “The new butt bins are easy

to use, uniquely designed, to encourage smokers to dispose and recycle their cigarettes as opposed to polluting our streets and sidewalks,” said Mark Kaluski, chairman of the BIA. After collecting an estimated 3,000 butts in one day, Kaluski said ultimately the best thing would be to have as many cigbins as garbage bins in the area, but he added that three bins is a start. The bins can collect up to 10,000 cigarette butts, and will be installed at sites along Montreal Road and Beechwood and

McArthur avenues. The bins cost the BIA $80 each and will be emptied by Cigbins for $20 a week. The company will partner with Causeway Work Centre to manage the program. The bins were created by Kathleen Vivienne Kemp, Ajmal Sataar and Brian Tomaszewski, who participated in a 48-hour weekend exercise hosted by Hub Ottawa called Launch Some Good. The three University of Ottawa students were tasked with creating a company that could

provide solutions for the community. According to the company, 19 per cent of Canadians reported to being smokers, smoking an average of 15 cigarettes a day. Cigarette butts are the number one most littered item in the world, with approximately one third of cigarettes purchased being discarded in public places. The BIA said it will keep statistics on how effective the bins are, monitoring how many butts are collected to see if the bins in fact make a dif-

ference. Mayor Jim Watson and area councillors Mathieu Fleury and Peter Clark were on hand to help officially unveil the

butts,” Watson said. “I am pleased with the Vanier BIA’s leadership, who has teamed up with Cigbins and we need to get this kind of product around the whole city – there’s no question.” So far, the project is only taking place in Vanier. The exact locations will be in front

Neilson set to lead company into its fifth decade of performances Continued from page 1

“I am very happy to be joining the passionate board and staff of Great Canadian Theatre Company as this company embarks on its next 40 years,” Neilson said. “I am also excited to be returning to the city and people who were so very influential in the early years of my career in the arts.” Neilson is a graduate of the University of Ottawa. Before that he attended Lisgar Collegiate. Neilson is one of the founders of the Canadian Improv Games, a cross-Canada high school improv comedy competition created in 1977, and remains on the board of directors for the association. Neilson will take over the reins from Nancy Oakley, who has served the company for the past nine years. Oakley led the company’s move from the original Gladstone Avenue facility to the new Irving Greenberg Theatre Centre in 2007.

“Nancy Oakley led Great Canadian Theatre Company through a period of incredible transformation,” said Nhanci Wright, chairwoman of the theatre company’s board. “We are looking forward to working with Mr. Neilson as he leads us into our fifth decade”. The company is committed

to the production of Canadian work and artist development of both emerging and established playwrights. It also mentors emerging companies, festivals, master classes and internships. This fall will mark the theatre’s 40th anniversary with the premiere of The Boy in the Moon on Sept. 18.

Now the co-chairwoman of the community association`s heritage committee and a volunteer with Heritage Ottawa, Miller Chenier leads a walking tour of the neighbourhood, bounded by Rideau Street, King Edward Avenue and the Rideau River. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We have a couple of build-

ings that are designated heritage, but no district,â&#x20AC;? she said, adding volunteers have sent a long list of buildings to city hall that they would like to see given a heritage designation. â&#x20AC;&#x153;But itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s all volunteers, so it takes time,â&#x20AC;? she said. The walking tour in Lowertown East on July 13 was the fourth in a

series of 12 led by volunteers from Heritage Ottawa. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Our mandate is education and awareness about Ottawa heritage,â&#x20AC;? said Linda Hoad, another volunteer with the organization. â&#x20AC;&#x153;These walks are a great vehicle for that.â&#x20AC;? The Lowertown East tour starts

It is now the French equivalent of Canterbury High School â&#x20AC;&#x201C; with a concentrated arts program. Despite what Miller Chenier alluded to as a controversial redevelopment of the neighbourhood in the 1970s, the area still has some historical gems â&#x20AC;&#x201C; like the Macdonald Gardens, designed on the site of a cemetery and Bordeleau Park, which was reclaimed from the river. Miller Chenier referred to the neighbourhood as the Colonel By workers village. Despite the rain and construction on Old St. Patrick Street, two dozen Ottawans turned out for the walk. Miller Chenier said last year there were 50 people. The next walk will take place along the Rideau Canal on Aug. 3. Participants will meet at the Bytown Museum and explore the engineering and architecture of the canal. Other tours include a Parliament Hill tour on Aug. 10 and a look at Old Ottawa South on Sept. 14. For more information on Heritage Ottawa and the walking tours, visit HeritageOttawa.org.

MINIMIZE THE FINAL INCOME TAX LIABILITY OF YOUR ESTATE proper planning, a deceasedâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s â&#x20AC;&#x153; Without income tax liability could be significant Did you know that approximately 80% of Canadians will donate to a charity during their lifetime? However, it is estimated that less than 10% will include a gift to a registered charity in their Will.

By Marty Clement, Leader EYâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Professionals Services marty.clement@ca.ey.com (613) 598-4894

This is one of a series of several articles intended to build awareness about the impact of legacy giving to Forever CHEO. In addition to the spiritual and community benefits of gifting to a registered charity, naming a registered charity as a beneficiary in your Will can also be an effective way to minimize the final income tax liability

of an estate. Without proper planning, a deceasedâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s income tax liability could be significant. Various income inclusions at the time of death, such as deemed capital gains and the fair market value of an RRSP can result in a higher than expected estate income tax liability given Canadaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s graduated income tax rates.

Gifts to Forever CHEO can include cash legacies, bequests of real or personal property, securities, life insurance proceeds and all or part of the residue of the estate. All of these gifts can potentially generate tax credits available to reduce an estateâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s income tax liability. Additionally, the gifting of certain types of capital property to Forever CHEO under the terms of a Will may avoid capital gains but still maximize the tax credits available from such a gift.

If you are interested in finding out about how you can leave a CHEO legacy, please contact Megan Doyle Ray at

megandoyle@cheofoundation.com or (613) 738-3694

â&#x20AC;?

Please feel free to contact any member of CHEOâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Legacy Advisory Committee for more information about minimizing the tax liability of your estate and how you can make a lasting impact on the kids and families at CHEO. We would be happy to help you create your Forever CHEO legacy for generations of CHEO patients.

Construction woes frustrate residents in Lowertown’s Wedge

Laura Mueller

laura.mueller@metroland.com

News - Resident’s in Lowertown’s Wedge neighbourhood are upset that a developer didn’t apply for permission to use a vacant lot to park construction trailers. Claridge Homes has now filed an application for a temporary rezoning to allow it to continue to use a vacant site at 281 St. Andrew St. for its trailers. In the meantime, the city has allowed the trailers to remain on the site, despite concerns from neighbours about the noise. The trailers are being used for Claridge’s Water Street condo development down the road, spanning part of the block from Bruyère Street east of Rose Street and extending to St. Andrew to the south, about 100 metres away from the new development. The use of vacant lots for parking, which is regulated by bylaws, is something the Lowertown Community As-

Claridge Homes has applied for permission to temporarily use a lot at 281 St. Andrew St. in Lowertown’s Wedge neighbourhood for construction vehicles as it builds its nearby Water Street condo development. sociation is very concerned about, said nearby resident John Chenier. He said the issues on St. Andrew started in March, when the trailers first pulled in. “They were using generators for power and the noise and fumes were waking up the neighbours before 6 a.m.,” Chenier wrote in an email.

Now, the trailers are wired for hydro so the noise has been reduced to the sound of air conditioners and the noise of arriving workers, Chenier said. Residents complained to the city in March and were told Claridge had been given until June 27 to vacate the lot. When the vehicle weren’t removed, residents were told the property’s owner and Claridge were seeking a temporary zoning variance. Calls to Claridge were not returned before this newspaper’s deadline, but the company’s rezoning application states the only option besides using 281 St. Andrew St. would be to encroach on city streets for the duration of the construction, “which would cause inconvenience and partial street closures.” “This impact has more impact on the community than the proposed use of the lot,” the application states. According to Linda Anderson, head of the city’s bylaw and regulatory services, Claridge has applied for a temporary rezoning and has been given until Oct. 31 to comply with the zoning regulations. That application will be on a September planning committee agenda and full council on Oct. 8, she said.

People living near the site, however, won’t support the variance, Chenier said. “We are asking the city to enforce the bylaw on illegal parking lots, we will oppose any application for a temporary variance, and in the interim, expect the city to enforce the bylaws and require the removal of the construction trailers,” he said. The temporary rezoning application will follow the same process as a

regular rezoning, said Don Herweyer, the city’s manager of development review. Planning committee and council would have to approve the request for the temporary rezoning, which could be granted for up to three years, Herweyer said. Rideau-Vanier Coun. Mathieu Fleury is unable to comment or act on the issue due to a conflict of interest because his father works for Claridge Homes.

Fury FC’s home opener breaks league attendance record Ottawa East News staff

News - Fans flocked to TD Place Stadium for Ottawa Fury FC’s first game on July 20, breaking a North

American Soccer League record when a total of 14,593 people filled the stands as the home team took on the New York Cosmos. The Fury put up a fight, but lost

on a first-half goal from Sebastian Guenzatti. “It’s tough to create so many chances against New York - they only conceded three goals the whole

spring season,” Marc Dos Santos, the Fury FC head coach said. “Normally, teams don’t create that much, and today we created. If you’re going to lose, lose like that - lose with many

scoring opportunities, lose with creativity and flair.” TD Place Stadium officially opened on July 18 when the Ottawa RedBlacks took on the Toronto Argonauts in Canadian Football League action. The Fury FC began to play in the North American Soccer League this season, but only began playing home games at the new 24,000-seat sports and entertainment facility during the second half of the schedule. Next up for the Fury was an international friendly agains Rangers FC from Glasgow, Scotland, on July 23 before the team travels to Carolina to take on the Railhawks on July 26. A full schedule is available at OttawaFuryFC.com.

Cancer survivor returns to Ride the Rideau By Tracey Tong Two things first inspired Dawn Morewood to start cycling in Ride the Rideau when the signature fundraiser of The Ottawa Hospital Foundation launched five years ago.

husband welcomed their first grandchild.

The first was her father, Jack, who was diagnosed with bladder cancer, and subsequently successfully treated with the oncolytic therapies the Ride would help support.

Since then, Dawn’s had another mammogram and ultrasound, and both came back clear. After a year off from Ride the Rideau, she and Arthur are plotting their return to the 100 km event at the fifth annual ride on Saturday, September 6 – on a tandem bicycle, of course.

With three rides already under her belt, irony struck when Dawn herself was diagnosed with breast cancer in May 2013. The investment advisor with RBC Dominion Securities was 50 years old at the time. “I’d had the instinct that something was wrong,” said Dawn.

A mammogram and an ultrasound confirmed the presence of a solid mass, and she underwent a biopsy and a battery of tests at The Ottawa Hospital. Although it was breast cancer, Dawn did get the good news that it was caught early. “The diagnosis came way out of left field,” Dawn remembered. Within two weeks, Dawn had undergone a lumpectomy. The results were excellent – the cancer had not yet spread, and the margins were clear. She underwent six rounds of chemotherapy over 18 weeks, as well as radiation, which ended February 13 of this year.

One of the best parts? Her dad – “a picture of health at 88 years old” – will be there to cheer them on, she said. To learn more about Ride the Rideau or to register as a rider or volunteer, visit www.ridetherideau.ca. Laura Mueller/Metroland

The second was her love of bicycling. A cycling fanatic of more than 30 years, she and her husband, Arthur, met 28 years ago through the Ottawa Bicycle Club, and participate in Ride the Rideau every year on a tandem bicycle.

“It was the closing of a chapter and the start of a new one,” Dawn, now 51, summed up perfectly.

Two days later, Dawn and her

Giving back where they build

��

By Tracey Tong When Mattamy Homes first got involved with Ride the Rideau in 2012, they were a cozy team of five. But like many event participants, the event grew on them. Inspired by the cause and captivated by the well-organized event, the team decided to up their involvement. Two years later, the team has grown to more than 20 riders, and Mattamy Homes has taken the reins as title sponsor of The Ottawa Hospital Foundation’s signature fundraiser. Ride the Rideau is a natural fit for Mattamy Homes, Canada’s largest new home builder, said Peter Gilgan, Founder and CEO of Mattamy Homes. Based in Toronto, Gilgan, who is an avid cyclist, recently signed up to do the 100-mile ride in Ottawa alongside his staff. “This is definitely something that we’re proud to be a part of,” said Mark Parsons, President of the Ottawa Division of Mattamy Homes. Parsons and team captain Mattamy Senior Project Manager, Land Development

Mike Green, both avid cyclists, are leading group rides so all team members will be comfortable with their conditioning on the day of the Ride. The team has brought Mattamy’s small Ottawa office closer together, Green said. “Ottawa has always supported Mattamy,” said Gilgan, “and we want to give back where we build.” According to the Canadian Cancer Society, cancer is the leading cause of death in Canada and is responsible for 30 cent of all deaths. An estimated 191,300 new cases of cancer and 76,600 deaths from cancer will occur in Canada in 2014. The proceeds from Ride the Rideau support the groundbreaking cancer research that will save or improve the quality of life for many.

In its fifth year, Ride the Rideau will be held Saturday, September 6. It features a brand-new 100 mile distance this year, in addition to its popular 50 km and flagship 100 km rides. All distances feature new routes, departing from and returning to Ottawa’s EY Centre, making it easier for family, friends and fans to cheer riders on at the start and finish. The Ride grows each year, continues to be the top cancer fundraiser in Eastern Ontario. In just four years, has raised over $6.45 million in support of cancer research, including the development of personalized therapies for cancer patients and clinical trials at The Ottawa Hospital.

“We’re off to a great start,” says Manager Dave ‘Cowboy’ McColl. “We’ve had all positive feedback so far.”

“We operate on a different business model,” says owner Rick Moore. “We invest in the latest, high quality equipment, and eliminate labour. That’s why we say we are cleaner, better and faster.”

There are three levels of amazing finishes. You can choose the level of dazzle that suits you best.

A typical automated car wash can clean about 10 cars per hour. Suds Express Wash can wash over 100 cars per hour, virtually eliminating wait time. Combined with the 11 self service bays, Suds Car Wash can handle nearly 200 vehicles per hour.

The talk is all about the shine. No matter what you drive or the condition of the finish, you will be amazed at how much better your vehicle will look after a visit to Suds Car Wash.

“Suds treats all water before it is sent to the sanitary sewer for further treatment,” points out Rick. “We also recycle the water that flows through the self-serve lines to keep them from freezing in the winter.”

Not a franchise, this is the second Suds location for Rick Moore. The first outlet in Kingston has been operating for 10 years and has won newspaper readers choice awards every year since opening. The same level of integrity is in the new Ottawa location, conveniently located in the heart of Nepean at 1999 Merivale Road, 1 km south of Hunt Club.

Every wash always ends with spot free water. This technique uses reverse osmosis to remove all solids from water. “Solids cause spots,” advises Rick. “Tap water has about 200 parts per million. Suds spot free water is always under five parts per million.” And don’t forget friends and family. Suds Car Wash Gift Cards make a thoughtful and practical present for any occasion.

In Ontario, funds raised will go towards the Tim Hortons Memorial Camp. “Just seeing them smile, just seeing them have a great time” is his reason for launching the #boatsmartmoment campaign. “We really want to raise this money for youth camps.” Driving his motorboat from the Nepean Sailing Club around Britannia Bay, Taylor said that as summer kicks into high gear, boaters should take a moment to ensure everything is ship-shape before heading out on the water. “We remind boaters, especially at this time of year, to check their safety equipment,” he said.

It’s like hockey in the winter,” he said. “Just do it safely.” Boat Smart offers an online course for pleasure craft licences, which are good for life and can be obtained at any age.

Plantar Fasciitis: heel pain causes, symptoms and treatment

The plantar fascia is a thick band of tissue that originates at the heel bone and extends under the arch and joins the tissue under the balls of the feet. The purpose of this band of tissue is to maintain the arch of the foot by binding bones, muscle, ligaments and soft tissue. When the arch flattens (known as a fallen arch), the plantar fascia may stretch which results in micro tears where it attaches at the heel, causing inflammation. When a person with plantar fasciitis stands and places weight on the foot, the

What causes Plantar Fasciitis? Plantar Fasciitis can be caused by one or several factors including: • Excessive weight or weight gain • Overuse of muscles caused by long periods of standing, walking or exercising • Pregnancy • Wearing worn or damaged, unsupportive footwear • Flat feet or fallen arches, weak ankles http://www.bioped.com/ conditions/foot_pain.asp What are the treatment options for plantar fasciitis?

the casting, manufacturing and fitting and modification of custommade orthotics. Custom made orthotics control and/or correct the mechanics which caused the problem by supporting the body’s skeleton muscles and fascia in the correct position and help prevent the problem from reoccurring.

There are many different types of custom foot orthotics ranging from dress to sport which are manufactured from multiple types of materials. Rigid orthotics can be made of thin, strong materials which fit within any shoe, from skates, golf shoes and even dress shoes. Semi-rigid orthotics are made of shock-absorbing materials which are moulded with support systems and crafted to relieve high pressure areas. Rigid and semi-rigid orthotics can be made with higher sides and thicker materials to custom fit a patient’s needs. No one will know you are wearing orthotics, except you and your happy feet!

Nineteen-year-old Orléans resident Colin Ratzlaff, left, celebrates with his mom, Karen McDonald, after winning a gold medal in five pin bowling at the Canadian Special Olympics in Vancouver on July 12.

Sports - A 19-year-old bowler from east Gloucester has reached a new height in his athletic career with his first gold medal at the Canadian Special Olympics in Vancouver. “I am just so happy for him,” said the young man’s mom, Karen McDonald. “He is a great kid.” Colin Ratzlaff won a gold medal July 12 after a superb performance in the five pin team bowling event. Ratzlaff’s personal average of about 114, with a high of 140, netted him the gold, said McDonald. “It was excellent,” said Ratzlaff, and a bit of a surprise. Ratzlaff has been bowling for the past seven years, said McDonald, after a family trip to Prince Edward Island

In addition to the victories that will be seen during the national championships, the event will also score a victory for the area economy, Watson said, pumping an estimated $3 million into the city in 2017 and again in 2018. The championships will serve as the selection trials for national teams for the World Championships, Olympic and Paralympic Games and the Pan and Parapan American Games, drawing 1,500 junior and senior athletes and 300 trainers and coaches. “That’s 1,800 people, in addition to the literally thousands of people that will come and cheer on their family, their friends and their neighbours at the competition,” Watson said, adding that tourism and hospitality is Ottawa’s third largest industry after government and high tech.

Steak rub: In a small bowl, mix together the brown sugar, salt, garlic powder, paprika, thyme, chili powder, smoked paprika, mustard and pepper. Press the rub generously onto both sides of steaks and place them on a plate and cover with plastic wrap. Refrigerate for 1

hour or up to 24 hours. In a medium bowl, mix together the olive oil, rosemary, garlic and seasoning salt. Peel and slice the sweet potato crosswise, about one centimetre (1/4 inch) thick and toss in the rosemary oil to coat. Cut each pepper into four wedges. Slice the onion into one centimetre (1/4 inch) thick rings. Place the veggies on a greased grill over high heat. Grill covered for three to four minutes or until they’re tender,

Thousands expected to attend competition, mayor says Continued from page 25

“And the combination of bids won in events hosted over the past few years has generated almost $40 million to the local economy,” said Watson, who was flanked during the announcement by city councillors Mark Taylor, Maria McRae, Mathieu Fleury and Scott Moffat. “That’s why our ‘Bid More, Win More, Host More’ strategy is a key priority of our department of economic development and innovation,” said Watson.

The competition is typically held in late June and early July, but the Ottawa dates have not yet been selected. That won’t be announced until next year. But there is still a lot of work to do before the championships can be held. The city and the Ottawa Lion’s Tack and Field Club, said to be one of the largest clubs of its kind in the country, will each need to pump in sizable chunks of change to improve the Terry Fox Athletics Facility. The city will spend $300,000 in new money, while the Ottawa Lions

Track and Field Club will contribute $72,000 to pay for a new throwscompetition area, where the shot put, discus and hammer are launched by athletes.The city’s investment would cover track painting and a new track curb for about $30,000, $15,000 in new lighting, $10,000 in audio equipment and $100 in additional storage. The city is also looking for a partner to match its $40,000 pledge to purchase a new scoreboard, said Kelly Robertson, the city’s manager of citywide recreation programs. “As part of that project, we’re going

to try and see if we can actually find some partners to help us get enhanced scoreboards at the site,” she said, adding that the current scoreboard at the facility doesn’t work. “We’ll be obligated to rent something but it’d be nice to if we had something for all of our users of the facility,” she said. “I think it’s a better interactive experience too for people in the stands.” Other facility upgrades from a different pot of budgeted funds are expected to include a $127,000 timing

tower and $17,000 in fence repairs. The bulk of the improvements will be done in 2015 and 2016 ahead of the national meet. As part of Ottawa’s Bid More, Win More, Host More strategy, which launched in 2011, the city began the bidding process in January 2013 to bring the championships here. The competition closed last September, and Athletics Canada notified Ottawa officials in January of this year that the Terry Fox Athletic Facility had been chosen. The event is held annually, but stays in the same city for two consecutive years. Moncton hosted the event in 2013 and 2014, and it will move to Edmonton for the next two years.

Emerson’s invention gets him in hot water

other always said my brother Emerson was going to grow up to be a prominent scientist, or at the very least an inventor of note. He spent hours drawing on art paper that Mother somehow managed to buy at Ritza’s Drug Store at the one cent sale – you got five pads for a quarter, and then five more for a nickel. So Emerson always had a number of pads on which to draw mysterious glass buildings, unrecognizable structures, and maps of countries which existed only in his imagination. And he was forever dreaming up some idea that would

MARY COOK

when we were both swinging on the gate behind the cow byre. The cows were waiting to be put inside to be milked, and the horse flies were as thick as thieves. I felt so sorry

for the cows. Their tails weren’t nearly long enough to swat the flies off their front parts, so I would often stand with a leafy branch and swish it over

their backs chasing away these dreadful flies, which I hated with a passion. I was lamenting to Emerson that the horse flies even followed the cows into the barn. And I commented that once I started to milk I had to forgo chasing away the flies. See FORTUNE, page 36

Mary Cook’s Memories make life easier on the farm. These ideas would be first put to paper, and if he could manage it, put into use, but rarely did any of them amount to a hill of beans. Take the time he thought if he put plank-like devices on the horses feet in the winter time it would prevent the horses from plunging bellydeep in the snow. Fortunately Father wouldn’t let him near

the team, but Emerson was so sure the idea was one of the best he had ever dreamed up that he took his design and tucked it under his bed with his collection of maps and pictures of buildings the likes of which we had never seen before, and thought we never would. And then one hot summer day he got another spurt of imagination. It happened

‘If this works, I’ll make a fortune,’ Emerson said Continued from page 34

Emerson hung most of his body over the link fence. Not a muscle in his entire form was moving. He went like that when he was thinking, sort of like being in a trance. That night, Emerson was in a corner with his pad of graph paper. No one paid any attention to him – this was the way he spent many an hour. But the next day he took

me into his confidence. He had been working in the drive shed for most of the morning, and when he came out he had two long poles, cleaned off branches really, off the lowest part of the big maple in our front yard, and an armful of binder twine. He beckoned me to come with him behind the cow byre. “If this works, I’ll make a fortune,” he said. “See if you can sidle up to that cow over

there.” Now, I know why I was taken into his confidence. Most of the cows were pets to me, and I had no trouble getting old Bossy to stand still. Emerson approached her rear end slowly with the two poles and the binder twine. Bossy was swishing her tail like mad. Emerson had to make two or three grabs before he got a hold of it. He placed the two hefty limbs along each side of the tail and very quickly

SCHOOL’S OUT

son’s contraption came around her rear end and connected with the side of Father’s head with such a whack that it knocked him off the stool and sent the milk flying. Father just sat there for several seconds trying to figure out what hit him. Then he got up and slowly made his way towards Bossy’s tail. He stood for the longest time looking at the two branches and the binder twine. He roared at Emerson to get in there at once. I turned to where Emerson had been standing. All I saw was our barn cat lapping the spilt milk.

wrapped the binder twine around them. When he had it secured, by wrapping some binder twine around her back legs, he said, “Now when she swishes her tail, it will reach farther and if my design is correct, she will kill the horse flies on contact.” Under ordinary circumstances nothing would have come of this, and it would have gone the way of all Emerson’s inventions. But

that evening Father was late coming in from the fields, and he went right at the milking. It was almost dark in the barn, as he positioned the stool at Bossy’s full udder, but you didn’t need much light to milk. Father was a scant foot from this weapon Bossy had attached to her tail. The place was buzzing with horse flies. Emerson was standing at the barn door, which I realized was very fortunate for him. Bossy’s tail was moving ever so slightly, and then one of the flies must have really done some damage, because Emer-

Elite athlete with autism does talking on the track Adam Kveton adam.kveton@metroland.com

Sports - A young man from Kanata who has autism was the fastest Ottawa resident in this year’s Scotiabank Ottawa Marathon on May 25. The race was Tommy Des Brisay’s first full marathon at 22-years old, finishing with a time of two hours and 39 minutes. It’s something Des Brisay has been working up to for years, with a half marathon personal best time of one hour 14 minutes and 56 seconds and many runs under his belt since he began running with his dad at 14 years old. That Des Brisay would do so well in the Ottawa marathon is really no surprise to his parents. He has always been a great athlete, and a dedicated one. “I’m going to be the first fastest runner in the world,” said Des Brisay. Though he works tirelessly to be the best at what he does, his great-

est accomplishments are the relationships he has gained through his achievements, said his mom, MaryAnn Given. Diagnosed with a severe communication disorder at two-and-a-half years old, Des Brisay’s parents were worried their son might never be able to communicate with others and build meaningful relationships. But they always knew he would be an athlete. At nine months, Des Brisay learned to walk and immediately began to show his athletic side. “He showed, at a young age, really good endurance and stamina and balance and coordination,” she said. But, when you called out his name, Des Brisay didn’t respond. One of the few forms of communication he did engage with was Disney movies, and even there, his restless side came out. “He was not a passive watcher,” said Given. “He would run out of the room when the villains came and run

Bridlewood’s Tommy Des Brisay, number 11, finished his first full marathon as the fastest Ottawa resident in the Scotiabank Ottawa Marathon on May 25. towards the TV and laugh and jump up and down and dance to the music,” she said. Despite the joy the movies gave him, Des Brisay’s doctors said the movies weren’t good for him, and that he needed to engage more with people face-to-face. His parents didn’t listen. “I just thought, ‘If someone loves something that much, it’s got to be a good thing.’” said Given. So they bought more Disney movies. At this point, Des Brisay was still

very non-verbal, but at the age of nine, that changed. Des Brisay’s parents bought their first DVD – his favourite movie, The Jungle Book. “He fiddled around in the menu and he came running to get me,” said Given. “He had it frozen at his favourite scene and he had turned on the subtitles.” It was a eureka moment for them, because, when Given recited the words to her son, Des Brisay looked

at them, and for the first time was able to say the words. That was a major turning point for Des Brisay, who can communicate rather well now, especially when it comes to recalling dates. Certain questions remain difficult for him, and he continues to prefer communicating in writing, but it hasn’t kept him from graduating from Ottawa Technical Secondary School in 2012 or auditing classes at the University of Ottawa. Like speaking, participating in organized sport was difficult when Des Brisay was younger as he didn’t understand many social cues or how to deal with people. But, as his athletic and communicative abilities have grown, so has his group of friends. Des Brisay is a member of the Ottawa Lions Track and Field Club and the Rideau Canoe Club, a frequent rock-climber at Vertical Reality, an award-winning skier, runner and rower, not to mention an avid user of social media with five million views on his YouTube channel and nearly 10,000 subscribers. Many of Des Brisay’s athletic accomplishments are in mainstream competitions as well as handicapped ones, showing his athletic ability is not constricted by his disability, and nor is his social circle.

This weeks puzzle answers in next weeks issue

ARIES - Mar 21/Apr 20 Aries, you have had little luck regarding relationships of late. Rather than focus on what hasn’t gone your way, change your perspective and focus on the good things. TAURUS - Apr 21/May 21 Taurus, you can be pretty stubborn when it comes to something that matters dearly to you. No matter your feelings, try to behave in a diplomatic manner. GEMINI - May 22/Jun 21 Gemini, be a shoulder to cry on for a beloved friend or family member this week. Everything will ultimately work out for the best, but your loved one needs support this week. CANCER - Jun 22/Jul 22 Be mindful of what you say and do this week, Cancer. Your head may be telling you to speak up, but your heart is telling you to stay quiet for a little while longer. LEO - Jul 23/Aug 23

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!

CAPRICORN - Dec 22/Jan 20 Capricorn, express yourself when asked for your honest opinion this week. Keeping things close to the vest is not what people want to see, so don’t hesitate to offer your insight. AQUARIUS - Jan 21/Feb 18 Trust your intuition in a sticky situation, Aquarius. Panicking will only make the situation more complicated, so allow your instincts to take over. PISCES - Feb 19/Mar 20 The time has come for you make your move, Pisces. You’re fully capable of making this transition and more than ready to do so.
