News - KidSport Ottawa is asking the corporate world to lace up its running shoes to raise funds for a good cause. The inaugural Ottawa Corporate Challenge invites businesses to put together teams of eight to compete in various sports and team-building exercises. Proceeds from the event will go towards KidSport, which provides funding to underprivileged children in the city to play organized sports. “It’s a great fundraiser and benefits our children and youth in Ottawa,” said Kyle Dawson, a volunteer with KidSport who works for the city’s parks and recreation department. “It gives them a day to miss work and get out into some fresh air and try some new sports they wouldn’t get to try otherwise.” Teams will take part in eight different sporting and non-athletic contests. The Ottawa Corporate Challenge takes place on Friday, Sept. 13, from 8:45 a.m. to 4 p.m. at the Kanata Recreation Complex. Dawson, who lives in Barrhaven, said the goal is to have a minimum of 24 teams enter and fundraise between $18,000 and $20,000, which will help around 100 children. KidSport provides grants of up to $450 to pay for registration and equipment fees associated with team sports. Every year, KidSport helps around
500 children and youth become active, whether it be playing basketball, hockey, or another organized sport. Dawson has been active in sport his entire life, with hockey, lacrosse, skiing and snowboarding topping his list. His love of being active spurred him to volunteer with KidSport to help foster the same affection for sport in others. He’s been active with the charity for more than two years. “It’s a way of giving back to my community,” he said. The Ottawa Corporate Challenge will feature a mix of mainstream and alternative sports, as well as fun teambuilding activities, such as beach volleyball, mini-soccer, ultimate Frisbee and goalball – a sport designed for the visually impaired. Goalball uses a soft, mid-size ball with a bell in it; teammates lie on the ground and have to navigate the ball into the opposite net. “That’s the one I want to really see being done,” said Dawson, adding the day is a way for colleagues to get to know one another in a fun setting. “It really gets the business community involved in sports and team building,” he said. There is a registration fee of $250, and teams are asked to fundraise a minimum of $800. There will be a lunch, awards presentation and a wrap up ceremony. Every participant also receives a gift package and water. For more information, visit ottawacorporatechallenge.ca.

Hintonburg mural comes to life steph.willems@metroland.com
News - Plain brick walls seldom raise heartbeats, but they do make for a great blank canvas. After decades of sitting idle (and weathering occasional bouts of graffiti), Charlie’s Groceteria located on the corner of Ladouceur Street and Carruthers Avenue in Hintonburg recently saw its exterior get a visual boost. A pop-up block party outside the store took place on Aug. 15 as a mural designed by local youth was affixed to the outside of the two-storey brick structure. The sizeable creation contains a variety of shapes, images and themes, and was the result of several brainstorming sessions held earlier this summer. Funding for the project was provided by a grant from Crime Prevention Ottawa’s Paint It Up program. A group of children aged 10 to 12 met with Mike Davis and Cassandra Dickie of Ottawa Urban Arts at the Hintonburg Community Centre, where they were told to let their imaginations run wild. At that age, said Cassandra, kids haven’t yet gotten into the habit of censoring their own creative ideas. “They’re not coming out with ideas just to sound cool, they’re just spitting them out as it comes to them,” said Davis. Davis said the elements of the Steph Willems/Metroland building’s wall had to be incorporated Mike Davis and Cassandra Dickie of Ottawa Urban Arts are seen putting the finishing into the mural design, which wraps touches on a youth-inspired mural on Aug. 15. The project, now attached to a corner around the various external fittings store in Hintonburg, involved local youth and a grant from Crime Prevention Ottawa.

More gambling would be harmful to city’s health, top doc says But if council says ‘yes’ to casino, more treatment funding needed: report laura.mueller@metroland.com
News - Ottawa’s top doctor says a new casino would be bad for Ottawa’s health. But if city council continues to pursue one or more new gambling sites, it should ensure the Ontario Lottery and Gaming Corporation pumps $2 million into communitybased gambling treatment services in the city. That would be a steep increase from the $741,000 the Champlain Local Health Integration Network currently receives to fund programs in Ottawa – a number that hasn’t changed since 2007. On top of that, Dr. Isra Levy, the city’s medical officer of health, says the city should allocate 6.5 per cent of its annual take of casino revenue (around $350,000 of the city’s current take from the Rideau Carleton Raceway slots) towards gambling-prevention programs run by Ottawa Public Health. That figure is currently zero. No estimates on possible future casino revenue have
been made public because it’s not known how large a new facility could be – or if there could be multiple gambling sites. The report released on Aug. 12 will provide ammunition for councillors who are opposed to adding more gambling options in the nation’s capital, a discussion that kicked off a year ago in Ottawa after the OLG asked municipal councils whether they would be willing to consider accepting new gaming facilities as part of its gambling modernization plan. The board of health will discuss the report at its Aug. 19 meeting and the information will also fuel a discussion at the finance and economic development committee on Aug. 26 about whether city council should ask the province and OLG to allow two gambling sites in Ottawa. While council had already indicated a preference to see gambling options expanded where they already exist in Ottawa – at the Rideau Carleton Raceway – councillors indicated in a unanimous vote on
July 17 that they would like to discuss the option of another casino site in addition to keeping at least 21 gaming tables at the raceway. The public health report says residents’ proximity to gaming facilities makes it more likely they will experience problems with gambling. The report cites multiple studies that indicate that the closer people live to a casino, the higher their risk of problem gambling. The public health report reveals that in 2010-11, the OLG spent nearly $300 million of its $6.7 billion in revenue on marketing and promoting gambling and $51.1 million on programs to address problem gambling. “In recent years, plans to increase availability of and access to gambling across Ontario as a means to generate revenue have been proposed without concerted increased efforts to mitigate gamblingrelated harm among Ontario residents,” the report reads. “There is an identified need to improve awareness raising, early identification of people
Feedback wanted on possible marijuana production facilities Steph Willems steph.willems@metroland.com
News - New federal rules regarding the production of medical marijuana has prompted the city to seek feedback on potential grow sites. Health Canada’s most recent Marihuana for Medical Purposes Regulations (MMPR) seeks to treat medical grow facilities as a functioning, licensed commercial business, given that it plans to stop producing the product by April 1 of next year. That means small-scale homegrowing and large-scale government facilities are out, and large-scale private facilities are in. And, because new businesses are subject to the municipal zoning regulations, the City of Ottawa wants to ensure the implementation of the federal policy mitigates community concerns. Already, the city has released a city-wide zoning bylaw amendment proposal for the public to weight in on, with Sept. 6 being the comment cutoff date. Those comments will be
included in a draft report, which the public can then comment on until Sept. 30, at which time it will be finalized in advance of committee and council consideration. The city’s proposed amendment will seek to clarify or provide new definitions under its zoning bylaw for medical marijuana production facilities, clarify the type of use under which such a facility will be permitted, and identify appropriate zones for such facilities. Certainly, the locations of such facilities could draw concern from neighbouring residents, even though the production would have to incur indoors. Media reports from late July suggested a potential

Those stories quoted Sam Mellace, manager of New Age Medical Solutions, as saying he had purchased land in the rural west end of Ottawa for just such a facility one of many he would like to create across Canada. Mellace, a medical marijuana advocate who garnered headlines in 2010 for lighting a joint in the House of Commons, had not spoken with city planners at the time of his comments.

in the report wouldn’t be as effective as simply foregoing more gambling opportunities in Ottawa. “The group of nine community health and resource centres have been clear that the best mitigation measure to avoid problem gambling is not to increase access in the first place by opening up a new location in the city of Ottawa,” states a press release from the coalition.
“We are very pleased that they have reached the same conclusion as our nine centres regarding the inherent risks of a new casino, and we look forward to promoting this report with other city councillors and members of the community,” the coalition’s spokesman, Centretown Community Health Centre board president, Jim Morrison, stated. The Rideau Carleton Raceway’s 1,250 slot machines attract 1.8 million visitors annually, while three million people visit the Lac Lemy casino in Gatineau each year, the health report states. Both facilities are open 24 hours a day – something Levy doesn’t recommend for a new gambling site in Ottawa. In 2007-08, 10 per cent of Ottawa’s population reported using a casino in the past year. Public health estimates two per cent of the city’s adults over age 18 – 13,000 people – experience problematic effects from gambling, but only about 280 of them seek help. Problem gambling can range from risky financial activities and emotional or psychiatric issues to substance abuse and bankruptcy.

Networking group gives women a boost in business Jessica Cunha jessica.cunha@metroland.com
News - Shawna Norwood knows how difficult it can be to meet people. She moved from Osgoode to Sudbury, Ont. in 2010 when her husband took a position as deputy fire chief and operations manager at the Sudbury airport. The founder of McLean Media and Event Management, Norwood found herself in the position of having to re-establish her business in a new city without the benefit of knowing a soul. Starting over, she had to get to know the right people – and quickly, she said. “It was difficult having to start from scratch in an area where no one knew me,” said Norwood. “I realized I needed to reach out fast and hard.” So she developed BoostWomen, a networking organization that offers women in business the opportunity to get together once a month for dinner, followed by a motivational workshop. The Sudbury chapter has grown to more than 400 members. “Never did I realize it
would have the impact it did,” said Norwood. She launched the second chapter in Kanata last month and has plans to open a third in Osgoode in September. Norwood said she was surprised to hear there were few options for women in business to meet once a month and connect in Ottawa. “There wasn’t really anything for them in the west end; not really any opportunities to network, have a sit down dinner, to get to know each other on a personal level,” she said. “I realized it was time to expand the BoostWomen in business network for other business owners to enjoy.” There is no membership fee to join; people just pay for the dinner, which costs $40. “We don’t charge for membership; no membership fees, no annual fee, no vendor fee to set up a display table – we don’t even charge for business to have their own unique profile on our website. Women pay for the dinner and that’s it,” said Norwood. “I wanted a group that was affordable for all … By not charging allows women to want to come out and see what
SUBMITTED
Kanata is home to the second chapter of BoostWomen, which originated in Sudbury, Ont. The organization offers women in business the opportunity to meet once a month for networking, dinner and a guest speaker. The next event is Aug. 26. all this is about. Then they come out and they realize how great it is and that it is a women’s networking dinner but it is also very fun and social.” The first local event, held at the Holiday Inn & Suites in Kanata, attracted more than 40 women, with some coming from as far as Orléans, Embrun, Casselman and Carleton
Place, said BoostWomen Kanata chapter president Colleen Lyle. Lyle is a real estate agent with Keller Williams Ottawa Realty and founder of the Silver Lining Program, where proceeds from homes sold can be donated to a local family dealing with a life-threatening illness. BoostWomen has given Lyle a platform to discuss her
projects and connect with other women in business. “The key to being successful in any business is putting yourself out there,” she said. “You can no longer have a website and do some marketing material and assume you’re going to be successful. In this day and age it’s all about getting out there, putting your feet on the ground and shaking hands.” The Stittsville resident said she was searching for alternatives to the early-morning network opportunities because as a mother of three, she spends the first part of her day making sure her children are prepared for school. “I’ve actually gotten to a point where I just won’t do them,” Lyle said. “It’s unfeasible.” She stumbled upon BoostWomen, which fills the gap for female professionals who are balancing work, families and personal lives, she said. “The fact that you’re mixing business without the stuffiness, I don’t know of another group that does it and does it as successfully as Boost.” The evening consists of open networking and the opportunity for people to showcase their profession or their
products, dinner and a motivational guest speaker. “The nice thing about Boost was we all got to sit down for a dinner that we didn’t cook, talk as women and support each other’s businesses,” said Lyle. Lyle said she encourages women to check out a BoostWomen event. “Think about the possibilities of networking with people who want to network with you. You never know what could happen,” she said. “You could come out not only with a new client but possibly with a new friend.” The Kanata chapter hosts dinners on the fourth Monday of every month, from 6 to 9 p.m. at the Holiday Inn & Suites Kanata. The next networking dinner will be held on Aug. 26. Sherry Crummy, owner of Crummy Media Solutions, will be the guest speaker. The Osgoode chapter is slated to have its first dinner on Sept. 24 at the Red Dot Café, and continue every fourth Tuesday, from 6 to 9 p.m. Applications for chapter president will be accepted at the first dinner event.

Proposed four-storey garage concerns residents Continued from page 1
The traffic and transportation overview prepared for the amendment by CastleGlenn Consultants shows the garage entrance on Macfarlane, which would be turned into a cul-de-sac at the north end to prevent cut-though vehicle traffic. A pedestrian crosswalk across Ruskin would connect the garage to the campus. The study stated other locations were evaluated “from a traffic operations perspective, access separation and cost effectiveness,” and ultimately the P2 lot was chosen as the most desirable. On July 9, the city’s finance and economic development committee passed a report recommending council approve a 16-year lease extension on the land in question. Council subsequently approved the lease extension. The lease is dependent on the building of the parking structure, which requires a rezoning in order to see the light of day. The Civic Hospital Neighbourhood Association, however, believes the city is acting too fast, stating on their
website, “what’s the rush?” The association references the typical Ottawa planning process and the public consultations that come with it. While Geoffrey Hall, planning assistant to Kitchissippi Coun. Katherine Hobbs states that there is no requirement for a community meeting on this rezoning file, there has been an informal meeting between the hospital and the community on June 20 of this year and a subsequent meeting between the group and the councillor that discussed the planning process. When contacted by the Ottawa West News, association president Amanda Farris elected to withhold comment until after a meeting with hospital representatives scheduled for Thursday, Aug. 22, after this paper’s deadline A petition is still being circulated through the community objecting to the garage, and the association’s stance is that it not be built; instead, they would like to see the original lease on the surface lot play out until its 2025 expiry date. That lease began in 1995. The community sees the

Residents of the surrounding Civic Hospital neighbourhood will be meeting with hospital officials on Aug. 22 to discuss the project. structure as a roadblock to the site’s potential future use as a community park, the possibility of which is mentioned in the original lease agreement. The proposed garage building would fall within the current surface lot footprint, meaning the current treed corridor along Hutchison would
remain in place. Provincial funding totaling $175 million for the Heart Institute’s expansion was announced in 2011, with an aging population and rising instances of heart disease as the rationale. Capital funds from the institute make up the rest of the
total project cost. Construction on the expansion is expected to begin in 2014. The rezoning application was received by the city on July 29, meaning a 120 day comment period is to follow. No planning committee date has yet been set, though Hall
said it will likely be in November. In the interim period, comments regarding the parking garage project can be sent to file lead Douglas James at 613-580-2424, ext. 13865. Emails can be sent from the city’s development application page.

Give Ottawa its casino cut
O
ttawa’s top doctor says a new casino would be bad for our health. No argument there. A casino invites customers to gamble their hard-earned cash, promising a big payoff if they win. The problem is most people don’t win. For many, dropping a couple hundred dollars at the craps tables and slot machines is simply the price of admission for an enjoyable night out on the town. For some, casinos feed an uncontrollable addiction, encouraging people to gamble away their rent money, retirement savings, or in extreme cases their home. But these addicts are a minority, the cost of doing business. And casinos are big business for both municipalities and the province, taking in hundreds of millions of dollars from residents – an inelastic source of income. Dr. Isra Levy, Ottawa’s chief medical officer of health, who is obviously a realist, realizes the city will be unable to resist the lure of building a casino. As a realist, Levy is recommending the city pump $2 million into community-based gambling treatment services, a steep increase from the $741,000 the Champlain Local Health Integration
Network currently receives to fund programs in Ottawa, a number that hasn’t changed since 2007. He is also recommending the municipality allocate 6.5 per cent of its annual take of casino revenue, which amounts to around $350,000 of what the city currently receives from the RideauCarleton Raceway slots, to gambling prevention programs run by Ottawa Public Health. Levy’s recommendations are a reasonable compromise. If the city turns down the opportunity to build a casino, people will simply head across the Ottawa River to gamble at Casino du Lac Lemy in Gatineau. Since Lac Lemy first opened in 1996, millions of local and tourist dollars have travelled out of Ottawa and Ontario to the Gatineau casino. Every last cent lost at the Gatineau casino ends up in Quebec coffers. Simply put, we want our cut. We can continue to do nothing and watch money leave the province and the city, or we can try and keep a slice of one very large pie. If there are going to be casinos, it’s critical that the profits do some good for Ottawans and Ontarians.

ome sights challenge your basic assumptions. Such as seeing an 80-year-old guy in a shopping centre with his laptop open playing solitaire. What are the basic assumptions about 80-year-old guys? First, when they are in the shopping centre they’re reading the paper, or talking with other 80-year-old guys, or maybe in running shoes doing the mall walk. Second basic assumption: 80-year-old guys are not into computers. Computers are for young people. Old people are confused by computers and do crossword puzzles instead. It takes only a little calculating to figure out why these assumptions are wrong. Personal computers became popular in the mid-‘80s and by that time many people were already using computers at work. So do the math: if you’re 45 in 1980, working with a computer, you’re 78 now and computers have been with you much of your adult life. Of course you play solitaire on the computer now – you probably did at work. As an aside, it’s funny that you never see anyone in public playing solitaire with cards.

editor at 1 a.m. anymore, wanting him or her to settle an argument about the 1978 Calder Trophy winner. (It was Mike Bossy, since you ask, or Bobby Smith, if you’re thinking the 1978-79 season.) Our commercial world is now encouraging the omnipresence of electronics. We’re all familiar with the laptop in the coffee shop – all too familiar, if we’re searching for a seat. It used to be that only the trendier places enabled laptoppers to connect via Wi-Fi. Now Wi-Fi is in Tim Hortons, not to mention just about every roadside motel. More and more enterprises, from airports to shopping centres, are accommodating themselves to the computer generation – which, as we have now seen, includes all generations. Church is next. There may remain a few generational differences. My guess is that many older people haven’t quite figured out how Twitter is relevant to their lives and Facebook is a taste that not all of them have acquired -- although the appeal of daily photos of grandchildren may be luring some older people in. The initial impulse is to regret the fact that the wireless generation is now all of us, that the Wi-Fi has come to the shopping centre. We picture malls jammed with Sudoku-play-
ing senior laptoppers, added to the hoards of teenagers and lawyers staring into their phones. But it may not be so bad. For one thing, it may help get people out of their houses. The sad irony about computers is they help us get in touch with the world while we sit alone in front of the screen. So even if the senior is going to the mall to check his email or play solitaire, at least he’s surrounded by other people. He may even bump into someone he knows and can grab a coffee, if all the seats aren’t already occupied by people with laptops.

Mothering in isolation
T
he death of 32year-old Winnipeg mother Lisa Gibson just days after her daughter and infant son were found dead in their home is nothing short of tragic. At a memorial service, there were rallying cries for an examination into Manitoba’s mental health services. While it is not yet known whether Gibson killed her children, it is known that she suffered from a severe form of post-partum depression. Across social media, people began questioning what would compel a mother to kill her own offspring. Maybe, one friend pondered, mothers feel too far removed from parenting by instinct. Anyone who has children, or who is going to have a child, or who even thinks about having children is im-
BRYNNA LESLIE Capital Muse mediately offered a platter of unsolicited advice, she noted. Not to mention the Internet. Between our obsession with celebrity parents and the mommy bloggers and news-on-demand, it’s hard to avoid conflicting information on parenting wherever you go. But if mothers are more depressed than they have been in the past, I’d wager it has more to do with the isolation of motherhood than with anything else.
Until the post-war era, most women stayed home with their children, which is isolating unto itself. But many lived in multi-generational homes, which meant a lot of women had their own mothers, aunts and sisters to help them through the tough moments of parenting. And there are many. In many Aboriginal cultures, likewise, the community is very much expected to help raise children. It is not meant to be a solo venture.
But in modern day, we have women – often women who have been active in their social and work lives – suddenly confined to the home when baby is born. This is even more pronounced with the current push for attachment parenting techniques, with the underlying message that women should never be away from their children for a second. Eight years ago, when my first child was born, I remember waking him in the morning and thinking, “what am I going to do with you all day?” None of my friends had children and I had only recently moved back to Ottawa, in a neighbourhood where I didn’t really know anyone. At that time, my spouse was travelling for work, which meant 12 hours a day – and more during
the night-waking phase – I was completely on my own. Sometimes I’d wander the neighbourhood or the mall, hoping to meet someone like me. I remember looking forward to his check-ups at the doctor’s office, as an excuse to get us out of the house so I could speak to another adult. I eventually discovered playgroups, which were more for my socialization than for my child’s. I’d show up thirty minutes early for one particularly popular group in Vanier at the time, determined to get a place for a couple of hours. I was fortunate to find a couple of women and men there that liked to talk politics and world affairs. I wasn’t fortunate enough to be able to carry on complete conversations, with our focus always on the kids. I’ve seen women, like me, walking around the neighbourhood we now live in, hoping to catch a glimpse of another parent and child,
someone, anyone they can talk to. My friends in other cities, away from their families and friends, post on Facebook frequently, a call to the outside world to “please talk to me in something other than single syllables!” While midwives, maternity hospital staff and community centres these days are very good at pushing breastfeeding and attachment parenting, they’re not so good at reminding women that it’s not only okay, but recommended, that they maintain some connection with the adults in their lives. Before baby arrives, all those advising women, and women, themselves, would do well to propagate the importance of establishing social and professional networks that can be maintained – as a high priority – postpartum. Otherwise, I guarantee, mothering an infant may be one of the most isolating things you ever do.
LETTER
Lack of real platform is federal Liberal flaw To the editor, I thoroughly agree with Brynna Leslie’s views on the federal Liberal party’s platform – or lack thereof. I am a senior citizen and a long standing Liberal. Ever since the party was destroyed by the bickering between the Chrétien and Martin camps it has been extremely difficult for Liberals to vote at election time. We have had no leadership worth voting for for a considerable amount of time. This, as you know has been demonstrated by the low numbers of voters for Liberal candidates for some time now. I value my right to vote and did show up at the voting stations to register my presence but returned the ballet unmarked in the ballet box rather than vote for the Conservatives or the NDP. Although I would have preferred that Justin Trudeau wait another four years before considering the Liberal leadership so that he could gain a bit more experience, I was somewhat encouraged by the statements he made about the changes needed in the Liberal party and had some hope that he would bring about the badly needed changes. However, the statement he made in British Columbia recently only proves that he is first and foremost a politi-
cian – when addressing an audience in any particular area of the country, say what you think the people want to hear. Legalizing marijuana would no doubt be a very popular political move in British Columbia. I was very disappointed to hear Justin Trudeau making such a statement. There are so many critically important issues facing Canadians today and no one seems willing or able to address them. Once again the Liberal party is ignoring the problems within the party, the lack of any solid and badly needed policies, as well as a well-defined platform aimed at improving the lives of Canadians across this country.

Tearing up the Capital City track nevil.hunt@metroland.com
Sports - Capital City Speedway has been a racing mecca since 1961. There’s still plenty of speed and noise at the track just west of Stittsville four nights a week. Wednesdays are for stock car racing on the three-eighths of a mile oval – about 600 metres. Cars race in five classes, including a category called 4 For Fun that features cars that are much like vehicles you’d see on the street minus exterior trim and the interior fittings other than the drivers seat. At the top end, the Late Modelclass cars can rip around the track in about 18 seconds. Thursday nights are for fans of drifting: cars that skid and slide around the turns. Fridays and Saturdays leave the adjacent oval behind as the Capital City Dragway times cars as they run a straight drag as street-
legal cars and narrow dragsters tear up the track. The season wraps up this year on Sept. 7 with Summer Slam 2013, which culminates with a demolition derby. For information, visit capital cityspeedway.ca. R0012_0822

84-year-old cancer survivor to Ride the Rideau Jessica Cunha jessica.cunha@metroland.com
Community – An 84-yearold Kitchissippi man is preparing to cycle 100 kilometres for the hospital that has given him so much. Irwin Waldman has battled cancer multiple times and the Ottawa Hospital is an organization close to his heart. Waldman will cycle from Ottawa to Merrickville as part of the fourth-annual Ride the Rideau event. “I’ve been cleared for five years now, but I still get checked regularly,” Waldman said. “The hospital has done something for me and I’d like to do something for it in return.” Waldman was first diagnosed with bladder cancer in the 1980s while living in Montreal. It was caught early and he had three tumours removed. “My presumption was, at the time, was that’s done,” he said. “A few years later when I moved to Ottawa, lo and behold these malignant cells are growing in my bladder again.” He underwent three more surgeries and drug treatments and has been clear for five years, but Waldman doesn’t
consider himself a cancer survivor. “I go back every year to get checked out,” he said. “I don’t really look at it as being a survivor.” Waldman, who is also a member of the Ottawa Bicycle Club, leads an active lifestyle. He said he follows “the big three” when it comes to keeping fit: flexibility, which requires stretching, muscle toning by lifting weights, and cardiovascular health. He uses his bike for everyday errands like grocery shopping and visiting his local library. When he’s training, he’ll take his bike across the river or through back-roads in the city. “I use either long rides in the flats, like Osgoode, Cumberland, past Kanata, or if I want to overload, then I go to the Gatineau (Park). It’s my playground,” he said. “In Gatineau Park, there I’ve got some formidable hills.” Waldman, a grandfather, has participated in the 100-km ride since the inaugural event. This year, Home Instead Senior Care – a local organization with offices in Kanata and the Glebe – is sponsoring Waldman. “Mr. Waldman is everything
an inspiration to us,” she said. “Mr. Waldman shows us that people of all ages can make a difference in the fight against cancer. “And he’s not alone. We have 36 cancer survivors signed up to ride so far, and they are an inspiration to all of us.” RIDE THE RIDEAU

Irwin Waldman, 84, has battled cancer multiple times. The Kitchissippi resident is preparing to Ride the Rideau for the fourth time to raise funds for the Ottawa Hospital. we all aspire to be in our senior years,” said Lesley Sullivan, owner of Home Instead Senior Care “He is physically active and healthy, and contributing to society rather than letting the years go by. Many of our clients and caregivers are living with cancer, so in addition to supporting Mr. Waldman, we are also supporting the Ot-
tawa Hospital Foundation and cancer research. Tracey Tong, spokeswoman for the Ottawa Hospital Foundation, said Waldman illustrates how people of any age can get involved to raise funds for cancer research. “At 84, he is our oldest rider and he’s a three-time cancer survivor to boot. He is truly
Ride the Rideau has raised more than $4.4 million for the Ottawa Hospital. Last year saw around 700 cyclists participate, bringing in $1.7 million. This year, with the addition of a 50km option, organizers are expecting more than 800 riders to join the cause on Sept. 7. “It’s nice cycling with a bunch of people,” said Waldman, adding he enjoys the people “hooting and hollering and giving encouragement” along the route. His wife, Elsa, will be waving him on as he crosses the finish line. “It’s fun to wave him in and he was always very excited about it,” she said. “(The event is) a great thing for him and he loves that. “He couldn’t wait to retire. He could do all those things he wanted to do. That’s what everybody should do, enjoy their

“Certainly from the design principles it would be something that we’d be interested in,” he said, adding that it’s something Windmill may or may not pursue. “It all will come down to the terms it’s put out on the street for on a competitive basis. Location-wise, urban infill wise… it’s got all the reasons
why any developer doing urban infill would be interested,” he said. As for how many residents or jobs could come to the Domtar lands, Westeinde said it’s too early to say. Walkability and active green space will be key components of the development, located a kilometre from Parliament Hill. “To create a truly pedestrian-friendly neighbourhood,
it has to be unfriendly to cars,” he said. Westeinde made reference to the aging Science and Technology Museum during his presentation, but in an interview afterwards he declined to elaborate on the possible relationship between the museum and his project. “At this point, it’s just ideas,” Westeinde said. “I can’t add much meat to it at the mo-

ment because there’s not a whole lot other than us dealing with the high-level concepts of what we’d like to see there.” “We’ve had no conversations whatsoever to support the vision we have at the moment,” he said. There are preliminary plans for 10 historic “installations” throughout the property and Westeinde hopes at least three of the former industrial buildings could be restored and reused as workspaces. Westeinde said Windmill hopes to finalize its intent to purchase and develop the property by October. “If all could go well, and we could have our zoning in place by next year, you would start to see the first phase getting launched at the same time,” he said. It won’t be a cut-anddry approach because of the site’s jurisdictional complexity, Westeinde said, and that’s what scared other interested developers away.
“We unfortunately like to do things that cause brain damage,” he said wryly. “It’s really going to be a shame if we can’t find the ability to connect at the levels necessary.” While construction on both the residential and employment areas could start as early as 2015, the entire project would take about a decade to complete, Westeinde said. During his presentation, Westeinde alluded to the difficulty of gaining support of decision-makers in Ottawa for the types of developments Windmill wants to do. Windmill’s Eddy and Cathedral Hill developments were simpler than the Domtar proposal and didn’t “push the envelopment too much,” Westeinde said, but there were still issues getting approval for novel wastewater and stormwater systems. “We’ve gotten support for at the end of the day, but it’s taken a lot of time,” he said. “The relationship has been a

retirement, make good use of it.” The Waldmans keep active with round dancing lessons – a choreographed ballroom-style dance similar to line dancing – and cycle together when the opportunity arises. They’ve travelled together through Europe and most recently returned from a Baltic cruise. “It’s nice to keep active at this stage; you have to really, otherwise what else is there?” asked Elsa. “They’re memories I’ll take with me to the grave; just indescribable, really.” Waldman plans to continue cycling in the Ride the Rideau event for years to come. Next year, he said he’d like to get together a group of “golden oldies” to cycle and fundraise together. “If they help the hospital which helps them, then they are viewed under a new light,” said Waldman.

healthy one,” Westeinde said, cautioning that he didn’t intend to slight Ottawa. Many of Windmill’s past projects have been the result of city governments seeking them out to create a project for a specific site. “Other places that we’ve gone there has been a really clear political mandate for a certain site, or to say, ‘We really want to do something here,’” he said. “As a result, most of the things we’ve done have been the result of a municipal process that’s led to (municipalities) saying, ‘We’d like someone like you to come in and do this.’” Not so in Ottawa, he said. “This one is one where it’s been led by us, it has different levels of jurisdictions and different levels of politics, so we’re having to try and foster that support to make sure that before we go forward, we can see the same kind of political support to drive this thing forward.” Westeinde is hoping to bolster relationships with local decision-makers because he’d like to do more projects in his hometown. “My hope is to be in Ottawa more,” he said. “We’d like to stop getting on planes to do stuff in other cities and we’d like to do more of the type of development we’d like to do in our own city.”

Province boosts funding for youth, children with special needs sabine.gibbins@metroland.com
News - The Ontario government announced it will spend $5 million to reduce wait times and improve services for children with special needs. The money will see an additional 1,300 children youth served by rehabilitative services such as physical, occupational, and speech therapy at Ontario’s children’s treatment centres. Ontario funds 21 children’s treatment centres across the province, providing service to more than 64,000 kids a year. Minister of Children and Youth Services Teresa Piruzza made the announcement at the Ottawa Children’s Treatment Centre on Aug. 13. John Fraser, marking his first public event as Ottawa South’s new MPP, was also on hand at the event to speak about the importance of the funding. “When you hear that a family was able to see their child who had complex needs strive and succeed, it doesn’t get any better than that,” said Fraser. “As government, we can help, and that’s what we’re here to do, but the broader community should know the OCTC is here and it’s a very special place and it needs support.” The announcement coincided with Fraser’s campaign to improve health-

More young people with autism will also benefit from improved access to intensive behavioural intervention therapy, which helps decrease challenging behaviours, increase appropriate behaviours and promote development, according to the Ontario government website.
care services across his riding. Piruzza said she couldn’t pinpoint how much each centre would receive in funding from the $5 million, but that the plan would roll out in the fall. The average wait time for rehabilitative services in Ontario for new families is 20 to 27 days. “We heard from families about what they need to support their children and youth with special needs, and we took action,” said Piruzza. “We remain committed to helping all children and youth in Ontario achieve their goals, Piruzza said the government is working towards reducing the wait times. “Today’s investment is part of our larger vision for these families and to help their children and youth get timely effective services,” she said. “Because the true cost, social eco-

Ottawa West News EMC - Thursday, August 22, 2013
News – Young ATV enthusiasts are invited to tell the Children’s Hospital of Eastern Ontario why they love their sport, in an effort to prevent injuries. CHEO will spend the next several months interviewing ATVers aged 12 to 18 years and their parents to study what makes the activity fun as well as risky. “We want to know what people’s experience is in riding an ATV and get their thoughts on what can make it safer,” said Corrine Langill, manager of health promotion and injury prevention at the children’s hospital.
Langill said CHEO sees a wide range of ATV-related injuries every year, including concussions, head injuries, broken bones, internal injuries and, on rare occasions, death. The audio-taped, confidential interviews will take between 30 and 60 minutes and will cover a range of questions including what parents worry about when their kids are ATVing, what kinds of rules parents and their children set in order to make the experience safer, and why youth choose ATVing as a hobby. Interviews can be conducted in the participants’ homes to make the experience more convenient, but parents and youth will be interviewed separately.
Each participant will receive a $20 gift card, up to $40 per family. Langill said the study’s parameters don’t dictate a specific sample size, so interviews will continue until she and her research partner Kristina Rohde feel they’ve adequately surveyed the subject. “The research team will then perform a detailed analysis of the information and pull out common themes. Eventually, Langill said she and her team would like to publish their findings in a peer-reviewed journal. For more information or to book an interview, contact Rohde at 613-737-7600 ext. 4128 or email krohde@cheo.on.ca.

Vanier church designation could be a win-win situation Laura Mueller
R0012265334_0822
laura.mueller@metroland.com
News - One Vanier resident is fighting misconceptions that St. Charles church has been stripped of its value by fighting for the city to designate it as a heritage building. The move to protect the former Catholic church on Beechwood comes as the Catholic archdiocese has made moves to sell the property, including deconsecrating it on July 1. A representative from the archdiocese was not available to comment, but Rideau-Vanier Coun. Mathieu Fleury said his impression is that the community and the archdiocese are not necessarily at odds when it comes to the possible heritage designation. The archdiocese has never brought up the issue of money, Fleury said. But even the Vanier community member who has asked the city to designate the church – Mike Steinhauer – agrees that a designation would likely reduce the value of the property. A report on the proposed designation is expected to be considered by the city’s built heritage subcommittee on Oct. 10. Approvals from both the planning committee and city council would also be required. Before that happens, Fleury said it is essential for the community and Steinhauer to meet with representatives from the archdiocese to get a sense of common goals and head off any mediation that might be necessary if the two groups don’t agree. “The diocese was surprised by Mike’s application and they wanted

In June, community members participate in a design charette intended to identify what residents would like to see happen with the former St. Charles church. One resident is now asking the city to designate it as a heritage building. to clarify the process,” Fleury said. “I don’t think it says they are opposing, necessarily.” Steinhauer is seeking the designation now because he recently received more information about the church’s history. Steinhauer said there were widespread rumours in the community that a previous attempt to designate the church had been unsuccessful and that any heritage value the church had was destroyed by renovations over the years. Both rumours are untrue, he said. City heritage staff confirmed to Steinhauer that no designation was ever formally sought for the church. Steinhauer says his research shows the mindset that the church’s heritage features had been stripped of values due

to renovations is also untrue. When he had a chance to view the interior of the church this summer, Steinhauer said he was taken aback by the beauty of the church and the good condition it is in. “I was surprised by the condition and I was surprised by the architectural elements,” he said. “This notion that it had no heritage value – I started to doubt it.” Although the church has sat empty for three years, the move to seek a heritage designation comes at the same time development interest in the site is picking up. Several developers including, most vocally, Domicile, have been in talks with the archdiocese, Fleury said. Steinhauer said he was aware of the rumours and the church’s deconsecration when he made the request to designate the church. Although a reduction in the property’s value could be a possible outcome of designation, Steinhauer said decreasing anyone’s property value is not his goal. Rather, the move could serve to increase the value of the overall community, he said. He says there is definitely a case to be made that the church meets all three of the heritage values the city uses to asses whether something should be designated. Only one of the values – design/physical value, historical/associative value and contextual value – needs to be fulfilled in order to qualify. Francophone community members have been very vocal that the parish is also a significant institution to them, Fleury said. Steinhauer makes his case in an eight-page application that’s posted online at saintcharlesottawa.ca. He said it’s important to consider the possible heritage designation as a separate process from what the site could be redeveloped as, but he hopes it could once again become a public space that could house something like a farmers’ market. Possible futures for the site were considered by members of the community at a design charette held at the end of June, a meeting used to ask residents to define what they’d like to see happen with the property.

How to effectively help teens with homework A few tips for parents of high school students Lifestyle - Some experts believe it is a mistake for parents to think that their teenagers, no matter what their age, are old enough to take complete responsibility for their school obligations all by themselves. Even the most independent teenagers sometimes need to be encouraged to stay motivated. Your role as a parent is crucial during all of your children’s school years. Take an interest in what they do. Take the time to talk to them every day in order to know how their day went, what subjects were taught,
and what they liked or disliked. Don’t be afraid to ask questions, and be attentive to their answers. The goal is to let your teenagers know that you are truly interested in their lives. If their school results are not what you’d hoped for, don’t go on and on about their weak points. Congratulate them on their efforts and help them find solutions to their problems. On the other hand, if they never seem to have any homework, it may be a sign that they are lacking confidence or commitment. Discuss this with them, check their agendas, and don’t hesitate to contact their school for more information. Remember that while your child is living at home, you are still their parent and it is

reasonable to ask for a minimal commitment from them. Encourage learning by creating a stimulating and positive atmosphere at home. Set up a work area in a quiet, well-lit room. Apart from providing an organized home office area, parents can also help their teenagers get organized. Skills that your children must learn include establishing good work habits, managing time, submitting work according to deadlines, balancing study time and relaxation time, and preparing for exams. You are their best ally in the acquisition of these skills. Lastly, keep a careful eye on their life habits: the good management of diet, sleep, and extracurricular activities are decisive factors in your child’s educational success.

BACK TO SCHOOL & 2013 FALL REGISTRATION
On the hunt for school supplies? Let the race begin How to stay calm amid the tumult time and do it right. Some stores organize their school supply section based on the lists supplied by the schools, while others offer personalized help in finding items on the list. To save yourself some money, you could check the flyers of the various stores before leaving home. You could also buy some items, such as pencils, pads of paper and exercise books, in larger quantities. That way you’ll have everything at hand if your children run out during the school year – you won’t have to go shopping yet again and pay the full price. Keep in mind that selecting

Lifestyle - And they’re off: the race to buy school supplies has begun. That’s right, the time has come to head out to the stores with your list at the ready in search of school supplies, clothing, backpacks, and lunch boxes. After all, you want your children to have everything they need for the school year and for their teacher’s class list. Here are a few tips to help you stay calm during all the tumult. First of all, carefully examine the list of supplies requested by the school. These detailed lists can be big orders to fill, so start early, take your
products of a lesser quality could cause you a few headaches if they break or wear out too quickly. What you should be looking for is the best quality-price ratio. Lastly, include your children in this shopping trip if they express the desire to accompany you, but be sure to set certain limits before you leave home. Let them know if there is a budget for extras, and if not, remind them that they are meant to be helpers rather than shoppers.

One summer offered hope during Depression years
I
t seemed to me we lived in a constant state of anxiousness. Mother and Father so often wore worried looks that sent a pall over the entire household. The egg money in the blue sugar bowl never seemed to be enough to cover our needs. Frivolity, like a few slices of bologna from Briscoe’s General Store or a package of Cracker Jacks after our Saturday peddling of Mother’s wares in Renfrew was out of the question. And then one summer everything changed. It was almost like someone had lifted a roller blind in a darkened room, letting in sunshine. It didn’t happen suddenly, but it came as the summer wore on. The season started out like any other. Father planted the fields, Mother raised hens from chickens, packets of seeds arrived in the mail and were planted. But that year, as spring rolled into summer, I knew in my heart, that year things were going to be different. For one thing, there were no frosty days or nights to kill what had been planted. But one season blended into the other, as if by some magic plan there was nothing to halt the natural growth in the fields and in the ample garden. That year there were no heavy rains to flood the seedlings or leave big pools of water in the low lying fields. The rain came as often as was
MARY COOK Memories needed. Soft wonderful rain and often, as if led by some outside hand, it fell during the warm nights so that Father was able to spend the days tending to the crops. The rain barrels, empty at night sitting at the corners of the back of the old log house, would be filled in the mornings from the runoff of the eaves as we slept in our beds. It was wonderful soft rain water which Mother put to good use. That year there was no drought. Gone were the cracks in the soil at our back stoop that in other years we saw after weeks of a dry spell: parched ground, crumbling under our bare feet, and burning the soles. That year, when everything seemed to change, the ground was moist to the touch. And I would see Father walk the back fields. After the morning chores and often after supper, he would go over to the West Hill, cross the Bonnechere and look – just look – and he would come back to the house and I could see a spring in his step that in other years was so often missing.

News - Vanier aims to shine this weekend for its first-ever festival of nations. The event will start at 10 a.m. on Aug. 24 and will occupy most of the south side of Montreal Road from the Vanier Parkway to Dupuis Street. Activities run well into the evening, with musicians taking to the main stage located in the Eastview Legion’s parking lot all day. The inaugural festival is what organizer Dan Shipley said he hopes will become an annual event.. “We want people to come and show off what they love about Vanier,� Shipley said. There will be food trucks, live music, antique vehicles and an artists’ corner at the legion, St. Margret’s Church, the Moose Lodge parking lot, Centre Pauline-Charron and Assumption School. A big portion of the festivities will include celebrating Eastview’s 100th anniversary. The organization has found two centenarians who will come out to celebrate. Complete festival information is available at festivalsvanier.com.

Drumming up support for minimum wage boost Joseph Ndala Mukendi bangs on an empty pot as part of a protest calling on the provincial government to raise the minimum wage. Members of ACORN Ottawa rallied outside of Ottawa-Vanier MPP Madeleine Meilleur’s office on Aug. 15 to protest the current minimum wage, saying, ‘there’s nothing left in the pot.’ ACORN is advocating for the province to raise the minimum wage from $10.25 to $14 per hour.

Sometimes I would go with him. Father was not one to talk idly, so we would walk in silence. And I would watch him stop at the alfalfa field and pull at a few stacks, rubbing them between the palms of his hands. The buckwheat field, the last to be planted, was already starting to turn to a golden brown. To me it looked like a large velvet carpet. I was too young to know why we planted certain grains or crops, but I knew if they thrived, we would be saved for another year – I was old enough to know that. The hay was being cut with stalks dotting the fields. Many loads had already been taken to the barn and hoisted up into the loft. Unlike some of the other farmers’ hay fields in Northcote, there were no fancy bales in our fields, just hand-piled hay, gathered with a pitchfork. The smell of the newly mowed hay filled my nostrils and I often went into the
barn and climbed the little ladder just to look at the hay mound, and I would be filled with contentment, knowing our livestock would be well fed over the coming winter. Our barnyard held fat cows, sheep shorn of their wool, pigs contentedly rolling in the dirt and I knew our smoke house would be filled to take us through the long winter months ahead. Mother’s garden that year, seemed to be spared the onslaught of crows and wild animals that often had their fill of the vegetables she had planted. For reasons unknown, our garden overflowed with produce, much of it to be peddled in Renfrew, and the rest to be canned in glass sealers to give us an ample table over the winter. And that year, the lone apple tree behind our house, had sprouted a wild crop and already we had our fill of pies, crisps, and apple sauce. Already, the shelves in the crawl space under the house that served as a root cellar

and a place to store Mother’s preserves and pickles were filled with jars of raspberries and chokecherry jam. And so that year, the pall of anxiety that usually filled our house, was gone. We sang joyously at night before we went to bed with Mother on her mouth organ. Father still fell asleep in the rocking chair with the Family Herald and Weekly Star spread out on his knee, but I thought the lines in his face were lessened. Still bone-tired was he, but with a look of contentment on his sleeping face. It was the only year I remember when the Depression wasn’t choking the blood out of our veins. All around us was the miracle of life. It would be replaced, as sure as death and taxes, the next year with the struggle for survival that marked that time in life, when every day was a challenge. But that year alone, there was hope that we would last to see another year of that era, known as the Dirty Thirties.

Classic artistic spirit coming to banks of Rideau River Fine art, jewellery show to take place in Manotick Emma Jackson emma.jackson@metroland.com
Arts â&#x20AC;&#x201C; What better place to evoke the spirits of impressionists past than in a beautiful rural garden on the shores of the Rideau River? This is the idea behind Jewellery and Fine Art in the Garden, an outdoor art show at the Manotick home of Klaus and Judy Beltzner showcasing the work of Barrhaven artist FortunĂŠe Shugar. From 10 to 4 p.m. on Saturday, Sept. 7 guests can tour Shugarâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s large collection of original paintings and a new series of fused glass jewellery at 1370 River Road. The Beltznersâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; large backyard garden impressed Shugar when she visited last year, and the friends began discussing the possibility of an outdoor show on the grounds. This summer, it became a reality. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I love going to outdoor shows,â&#x20AC;? Shugar said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s
nature, you hear the birds. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s just so pleasant.â&#x20AC;? A large part of Shugarâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s paintings are done in the impressionist style, after she spent almost two months walking the paths of famous impressionists like Van Gogh and Monet in 2011. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I wanted to get to know them,â&#x20AC;? she said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I wanted to stand where they stood, see the light that they saw. And I think I achieved that.â&#x20AC;? Whatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s left of a ďŹ ve-month painting spree after her trip to Europe will be for sale at the show. But Shugar, a lifelong student of all types of arts â&#x20AC;&#x201C; she has certiďŹ cations in ďŹ ne art, dress making, haute couture and animation â&#x20AC;&#x201C; doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t hold herself to any one genre. Since she returned to the University of Ottawa to complete her ďŹ ne arts degree several years ago, Shugar has been exploring abstract styles. Large, colourful pieces made with painted paper and other mixed media adorn her walls. She started her career doing pencil drawings of the human body and other ďŹ nite objects,
EMMA JACKSON/METROLAND
FortunĂŠe Shugarâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s painting Moments Later is just one that will be for sale on the grounds of a Manotick home on Sept. 7. so abstract was a leap for her. But Shugar said she has learned to interact differently with her abstract work. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not an intellectual approach so much as an emo-

tional response,â&#x20AC;? she said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve gained a real understanding and love of connecting with the paint.â&#x20AC;? A large painting on the mantel in her dining room,
called Mother, is very close to her heart, she said, because she wasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t actively trying to put her impressions of motherhood down on canvas â&#x20AC;&#x201C; it happened organically. She was merely thinking about motherhood while she applied paint to canvas, she said, but the result was a stirring interpretation of the worldâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s oldest job. The circular movement in the piece evokes images of vessels and nests. Chaotic lines and colour address the unique love, tension and passion that can exist between mother and child. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m curious to see the reaction from folks,â&#x20AC;? Shugar said. Another abstract work, Moments Later, is awash with bright, warm colours: fuscias, yellows, oranges and reds broken up by layers of painted paper. Shugar painted it while her daughter was living in Africa, and the passionate colours came from the stress of missing her, she said. But when the painting hung in a consulate ofďŹ ce in Zambia, many African diplomats related to it much differently, Shugar said. The colour palette brought to mind the blaz-
ing sunsets of the continent, and one woman even found her own village hidden among the paint. Along with her traditional paintings, Shugar will also showcase her newest canvas: glass jewellery. Several months ago, Shugar made a large fused-glass pendant as part of a class, and received many compliments. An art store owner in Florida encouraged her to pursue the craft, and she now has her jewellery for sale in three stores across North America, although none in Ottawa yet. The collection, called Black Ice, features large, medium and small pendants as well as earrings made from dichroic glass. Technology centres like NASA fuse the vapours of precious and semi-precious metals to glass to create a variety of bright, iridescent colours and patterns. The glass is then broken into pieces and sold to artists. For more information about Shugarâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s traditional and â&#x20AC;&#x153;wearable artâ&#x20AC;? visit www. fortuneeshugar.com. When attending the art show look for balloons and a sandwich board marking the location.

Community – Ottawa will pull together for the community next month. The 8th annual Plane Pull Challenge will take place on Sept. 14 at the Ottawa airport. Airport spokeswoman Krista Kealey said the event has grown from featuring 12 teams to 34. “It was a small event the first year we held it, but it’s since continued to grow,” she said. All of the proceeds from the event will be split equally between Project Clear Skies and the Sens Foundation. Last year’s event raised approxi-

mately $80,000 for both charities, and Kealey said they are hoping to achieve a little more than that this year. While they are still waiting on confirmation on the type of aircraft teams will be pulling, Kealey said it will be a challenge all round. Kealey said they are keeping their fingers crossed for a large jet, courtesy of Air Canada. A team consists anywhere from 15 to 20 people who compete against other teams and try to beat their times, she added. The fastest time a team has ever achieved in pulling an airplane is five seconds. The task is actually easier than it looks, she said. “Once you get a great momentum going, you’ll be surprised how easy it is,” she said. The one-of-a-kind event is a unique one, and has always attracted a vast number of spectators, said Kealey. “It’s a really different type of event,” she said. “It’s a unique experience for anyone who participates.” After all, Kealey added, it’s not often one will have a chance to pull an airplane. The family-friendly event will feature something for everyone, including live entertainment and children’s activities. Once the teams arrive on site for the fundraiser, they are led through a warm-up activity to get their adrenaline pumping. Team members will line up adjacent to the pull rope, which is tied to the aircraft. When instructed by the referee, participants will create tension on the rope and prepare to pull. The team will start pulling at the sound of the horn and the timer will start. Participants will haul the aircraft 12 feet. Medals will be given to the three fastest teams, and the coveted Plane Pull Cup will be awarded to the winning team. Sponsorships and participants are still welcome to join the event or create a team. For more information, visit ottawa-airport.ca/plane-pull.

Ravens ‘rookies’ ready to make most of football renaissance to compete during the week as well.” Because every player is new to the program, Sumarah said he expects it to become a tight-knit program over the years. While many university teams carry up to 100 players, this year he’ll cap the total at 70 to 75 on the final roster, to be determined after an exhibition game this weekend. That will allow the team to recruit about 20 new players next year, accounting for some

Sports - Rookie initiation will be a little different for Carleton Ravens football players this year. The newbies usually have to run to fill the water bottles for veteran players and then diligently wait season after season for a starting position to be up for grabs. As Carleton University started football training camp on Aug. 15, every last player was a Ravens rookie. “A lot is expected from all of us, we all came here with a blank slate,” said Matt Lapointe, an Orléans player who has already graduated from Queen’s University, where he played football. Carleton will field a football team this year for the first time since the late 1990s. Almost all of the new Ravens football players are fresh out of high school; young players ready for their first taste of university football. Besides Lapointe, Ottawa players include Nathaniel Hamlin and Tunde Adeleke, both from Gloucester South and St. Francis Xavier graduates, Tyler Young, a Sacred
Brier Dodge/Metroland
Nathaniel Hamlin, left, and Tunde Adeleke, both St. Francis Xavier graduates, Tyler Young, a Sacred Heart graduate from Stittsville, Nick Gorgichuk, a St. Mark grad and Matt Engel, a graduate from Sir Robert Borden and Yitzhak Rabin, have all been named to this year’s Carleton Ravens football team. Heart graduate from Stitsville, Nick Gorgichuk, a St. Mark graduate from Manotick and Matt Engel, a Nepean graduate from Sir Robert Borden and Yitzhak Rabin. Gorgichuk said the number of new players has both its positives and negatives. “We can set the foundation for future seasons,” he said. “Hopefully we do a good job
at it.” Gorgichuk, a quarterback, originally committed to play at Acadia University, but decided to switch and stay closer to home, joining the Carleton program. He was one of the team’s early recruits, and a star player in the junior football ranks. Because there aren’t any veterans, it’s still a fight for ev-
ery spot in the Ravens lineup. Gorgichuk will have competition in experienced quarterback Jesse Mills, who played with coach Sumarah at St. Mary University before coming to Ottawa. “I’m expecting some battles,” Sumarah said. “They’re going to have to come out and compete on (gameday) Saturdays, but they’re going to have
inevitable turnover, to build the team as the years go on. As the start of the regular season looms, Sumarah didn’t set a goal based on wins and losses, instead focusing on the work ethic on the field. “I’d like to see us go out and compete on every play – be a physical team,” the head coach said. The Ravens will play their first home game on Sept. 7 at 1 p.m. against Waterloo at Keith Harris Stadium on the Carleton University Campus.

LIBRA - Sept 23/Oct 23
Libra, despite the many changes you have made, you still don’t feel completely satisfied. You can’t put your finger on what is off, but you will get to it eventually.
SCORPIO - Oct 24/Nov 22
Scorpio, you have heard the saying that you catch more flies with honey. Be prepared to lay the honey on especially thick this week. Have fun with it.
SAGITTARIUS - Nov 23/Dec 21
Sagittarius, it’s hard to smile when you are feeling upset. This is not the week to let your true feelings show, though. Get through your obligations first.
CAPRICORN - Dec 22/Jan 20
Carpricorn, if you have been thinking about getting active to shed a few pounds, then try something fun like playing a sport. Exercise doesn’t have to mean time in the gym.
AQUARIUS - Jan 21/Feb 18
Certain aspects of your life are a work in progress, Aquarius. Other things you have under control. This week, focus on the things that may be holding you back.
PISCES - Feb 19/Mar 20
Pisces, while creative pursuits tickle your fancy this week, some more mundane tasks require your immediate attention.
