Enriched Bread Artists ready to open doors Steph Willems
steph.willems@metroland.com
Arts – A unique architectural relic of Ottawa’s manufacturing past will throw its doors open this October, inviting residents into its labyrinthlike belly. Once home to a bustling bread factory, the big, white building overlooking the O-Train tracks on Gladstone Avenue now houses a large and diverse group of artists, one that pays homage to the building’s history with their name – En-
riched Bread Artists. Each year, the members of this non-profit organization hold a fall open house to showcase their works of art and the white-washed brick building that dates from 1920. Joyce Westrop, artist and spokeswoman for the collective, said that this year the group decided to push the date further back. This year’s opening night falls on Oct. 30, with the building remaining open until Nov. 2.

term project space is currently being tested for artists who need to use the venue for two to four months. “We’re trying to stay versatile and vibrant,” said Westrop. Whatever the visual theme of opening night, the late-October setting and eccentric architecture will make 951 Gladstone it a good destination for Halloween. Westrop said she has reasons to believe the occupants of the building aren’t all of earthly origin. “The building itself makes a lot of interesting noises – it has radiator heat, lead pipes and window fans – but sometimes there’s that feeling that someone’s walking past you. I’m not the only one who says this, either.” In its early years, the building saw bread dough mixed on the third floor, the loaves baked on the second, and bakery orders filled on the first. Light industrial uses occupied the building in the decades following, until the Enriched Bread Artists took up occupancy of the space 22 years ago. In the recent past, rumours have surrounded the fate of the aging building. The fact that the structure was nearing a century old, and had sustained considerable damage in the infamous “Bluesfest Storm” of 2011, made the artists nervous. “We got considerably damaged at

that time, and it took the landlord a couple of months to get going on the repairs,” recalled Westrop. “So, we were feeling very vulnerable at the time. It was our 20th anniversary, there was scaffolding up, the front peak of the building had sustained brick damage, part of the roof was peeled away and there was water damage inside – I didn’t know if they were going to bother repairing it.” The building’s prominent location near the future Gladstone O-Train station will change the nature of the property once those community design plans are finalized, she said. “As far as we know, nothing is written in stone,” said Westrop. “Some of us feel we’d be a valuable part of any development … The previous owner didn’t sell to the highest builder, which preserved our artist community. Most of the businesses on this corner are artist-related – the owner has kept that intact.” Besides being a long-time home to members of the city’s artistic community, Westrop said she hopes the building prevails for the sake of history. The open studio is meant to reinforce its attributes among members of the public. “We really hope we’ll be here another 20 years,” she said. “It’s one of the few light industrial spaces in Ottawa. People really have to come in and see the building for themselves.” More information on the event can be found at enrichedbreadartists.com.
Kitchissippi residents work to ‘de-pave paradise’ nated from the community and members of the congregation. The site is in the church’s south courtyard and serves as an entrance to the church and the Ottawa Children’s Montessori Centre. The area was historically a wetland and in old architectural renderings of the church, the site was intended to be a lush, green courtyard.

News - Many hands made for light work during the planting of a community garden at the Kitchissippi United Church on Sept. 13. The garden is the first in Ottawa constructed under Depave Paradise initiative – a partnership between the church, Ecology Ottawa and Green Communities Canada. “Ecology Ottawa put out a call for proposals and we applied,” said Andrea Prazmowski, who works for the church. The idea of the initiative is to address the overwhelming amount of asphalt in the city. Asphalt reduces the permeable surfaces capable of absorbing rainwater – as a result the storm water capacity becomes overwhelmed during a heavy rain and wastewater from Ottawa’s sewers overflows into the Ottawa River. Prazmowski said nearly 50 volunteers gathered in the church parking lot on June 15 to remove 10 square metres of pavement. “We had a good mix of Ecology Ottawa volunteers, members of the congregation and area residents come out to help.” Prazmowski said. The new installation will feature a butterfly garden, a drought-resistant garden and a section for local, native plants. Prazmowski said the bulbs and material have been do-

However, the alcove was almost entirely covered in pavement prior to the de-pave day on June 15. “Trees and plants naturally act as sponges and contribute the natural hydrological style,” Velta Tomons, a tree organizer with Ecology Ottawa said in a press release. “They also increase the mental and physical health
of residents as well as diminish the heat island effects by cooling down our neighbourhoods.” Volunteer Karen Hawley said she made it out to the planting session in the rain because it was the “funnest part” of the whole project. “It’s really nice to see the planning come to fruition,” she said.

Meet the candidates: Edward Conway News - Edward Conway, a 50-year-old lawyer and economist, has joined a host of challengers in this October’s municipal election. Conway, who lives in Centretown with his partner, has called Ottawa home since 1999, having previously lived here as a student in the late 1980s. Bringing with him an extensive background in law and finance, Conway said that advocating for residents would bring him great personal satisfaction. In response to the challenges being experienced in the ward, Conway is campaigning on policies that he said would temper the negative side-effects of urbanization and development. His full platform is outlined at conwayforsomerset.ca. Q: Why are you running for council in Somerset Ward? A: I spent 20 years as a lawyer, and 10 years as a legal aid layer. My satisfaction came from looking at client’s faces when I got them something ‌ I would get great personal satisfaction for representing (residents) at this level. Housing, roads, biking, sewer and sidewalks are all the types of things that impact people’s personal existences. As a councillor, I know the things being dealt with by council, the files they deal with, and the things one can be successful with. Q: Detail your past political and civic activism,
whether it’s volunteering, campaigning, donations, lobbying or employment at any level of government or political party? A: I was involved in advocacy groups for low-income housing and injured workers during my early years as a lawyer. I was council to a nonprofit disability organization for multiple sclerosis called Angioplasty for All. That’s my involvement with respect to organizations. I have spent 15 years as council to federal government ministers and committees of the Senate. Q: How are you going to fundraise for your campaign? A: I’m paying for this out of my own pocket, though there are a group of friends and associates in the legal community interested in helping me. They’re throwing a few dollars into the hat for my campaign. I hope at some point to hold a fundraiser. Q: Do you have any potential pecuniary interests or a financial or family conflict of interest? A: Absolutely not. I’m not a member of any board or any entity that deals with the City of Ottawa. Q: What do you think the biggest issue was in Somerset Ward this term and how was it handled? What will be the big issue next term? A: My belief is that the biggest issue in the ward is the nature and progression of development. Over the past 30 years, Somerset Ward has
suffered from the fact that single-family homes left and moved to the suburbs ‌ My ardent desire is that development in Somerset somehow succeed in turning the ward into a community with the kind of demographics we see in the suburbs. The city wants to intensify to deal with (rising) service costs – that’s fair and valid – and it has led to rapid development of condominiums. The city can be quite demanding of these developers in order to make everyone in the building and surrounding neighbourhood happy, to some degree – I would be very aggressive on items like that. There’s a requirement that developers set aside a certain percentage of their property for parkland – I would insist that when four or five condos get built and the percentage is accumulated, a city block would be developed into parkland. For every densification, there would be a corresponding densification of parkland. Cash-in-lieu-of-parkland is an easy way for a developer to (appease) the city. The problem is, the city doesn’t do it. My answer would be to, within 24 months, put in a full block of green space in the area being intensified. Other candidates currently registered in Somerset are: Martin Canning, Catherine McKenney, Thomas McVeigh, Conor Meade, Jeff Morrison, Sandro Provenzano, Silviu Riley, Denis Schryburt, Curtis Tom, and Lili V. Weemen.

JAIL BREAK
Metroland East Special Report
Rehab programs feel the crunch Canada’s jails are bursting at the seams. Federal and provincial correctional facilities are struggling to meet the rising intake of inmates, the result of federal government toughon-crime legislation. A Metroland East special report shows rehabilitation and treatment programs have taken a backseat to the push for prison expansion. In the first of a fourpart series, we look at how prisoners are struggling to find employment and addiction-treatment support. Brier Dodge and Jennifer McIntosh

he first time Dan Parlow went to jail, he was 16 years old. “I was a boy, going to a man’s prison,” said Parlow, who was convicted of robbery and served time at the Guelph Correctional Institute. Instead of being rehabilitated, Parlow said he felt like he was sent to a university of crime. Over the last three decades, Parlow, 49, has served time at four federal penitentiaries, provincial jails, and has stayed at several halfway houses. “A lot of it was robbery or assaultrelated – some firearms stuff,” he said. But he said some of the circumstances in his early life led him down that path. Parlow, originally from Sault Ste. Marie, Ont., said he grew up in a tumultuous home environment. His father left when he was five years old, leaving the kids with his alcoholic mother. Parlow said he was physically, emotionally and sexually abused both in the home and after he entered the foster-care system. He committed robbery at the age of 16 after leaving foster care and finding himself homeless. “All these things were precursors to the life I would lead later,” he said. He started using substances to help him cope: first alcohol, and eventually heroin. Once an offender enters the system, the first conviction will often echo through the rest of their life. Parlow has been out of jail on his statutory release since July 2013 – his longest stretch of parole in a long time. He currently lives at the Ottawa Mission and is participating in its Lifehouse drug-treatment program and is studying criminology at Car6

The number of inmates in federal prisons is at an all-time high with more than 15,000 this year. Between 2003 and 2013, the federal prison population has risen by 16.5 per cent, close to 2,100 inmates. Critics blame the jump on mandatory sentencing and the federal government’s Truth in Sentencing Act, which eliminated the two-for-one credit for time served before conviction.

The federal government’s “toughon-crime” legislation, which pushes mandatory minimum sentencing and stiffer punishments, doesn’t help deal with the root issues of crime or why parolees reoffend, Parlow said. “There’s a moral panic going on,” Parlow said. “Crime rates have been on the decline since the ’60s, but there’s still bottlenecking in the system and a real tough-on-crime attitude.” Offenders face large barriers in turning their lives around in prison due to a lack of programming – including drug and alcohol rehabilitation – in both jail and the community,

said Parlow. His experience isn’t unique. According to the annual federal prison ombudsman’s 2011-12 report, almost two-thirds of federal offenders reported being under the influence of drugs or alcohol when they committed the crime for which they were incarcerated. Four out of five offenders come to jail with a history of substance abuse. Parlow said inmates’ reduced access to rehabilitative programs can be linked to overcrowding. CROWDED SPACES
Over the past decade, Ontario pris-
ons have seen a large increase in the number of inmates. Federal penitentiaries, which take in prisoners serving sentences two years or longer, have seen incarcerated populations increase by 2,100 inmates, or 16.5 per cent, from 2003 to 2013. Meanwhile, provincial jails are experiencing explosive growth in the number of inmates remanded in custody, while awaiting trial or bail hearing. On any given day in 2012-13, 25,208 people were detained in Canada’s provincial and territorial jails according to Set up to Fail: Bail and the Revolving Door of Pre-trial Detention, a report released in July 2014 by the Canadian Civil Liberties Association and Education Trust. More than half of those inmates were awaiting trial or a bail hearing. Canada’s remand rate has tripled over the past three decades – but this is not the result of a rise in the nation’s crime rate, which has been falling for the past two decades. Aaron Doyle, a criminology professor at Carleton University, has spent the past year studying overcrowding
conditions at the Ottawa-Carleton Detention Centre. The centre has been overcrowded for years, with three and sometimes four inmates living in cells designed for one or two, he said. “Two-thirds to three-quarters of the prisoners in the Ottawa-Carleton Detention Centre are on remand, which means they’re just awaiting their day in court – they actually haven’t been convicted of anything,” said Doyle, a founding member of the Criminalization and Punishment Education Project, made up of faculty and students from Carleton and the University of Ottawa. Meanwhile, they’re getting very little in the way of programming because of overcrowding, he said. “Some of them are in and out of court 10 times and will spend months and over a year in there just waiting to get their case settled,” said Doyle. The project is planning to release a report about conditions at the Ottawa detention centre this fall. At the federal level, Correctional Service Canada spends approximately three per cent of its $2.5-billion annual budget on core rehabilitative programs, such as anger management and programs for substance abuse and sexual offenders. Federal inmates have access to a variety of substance-abuse programs, including coping strategies for offenders undergoing methadone treatment, and national substance-abuse programs. Most penitentiaries offer Alcoholics Anonymous/Narcotics Anonymous groups, Véronique Rioux, a spokeswoman for Correctional Service Canada, said in an email. “Overall research shows that offenders who complete CSC’s substance-abuse programs are significantly less likely to return to custody with new offences and less likely to return with new violent offences,” she said. “Over the past five to 10 years, programs and services have not been reduced, but rather improved to ensure that they are continuously targeting the specific needs of inmates,” she said. Brent Ross, spokesman for Ontario’s Ministry of Community Safety and Correctional Services, said $24 million is spent annually on skilldevelopment and rehabilitation programs, which have reduced recidivism rates for the inmates who participate.

“These people talk a big game about these programs, but they don’t work,” said Jody Faucher, who is currently incarcerated at the Ottawa-Carleton Detention Centre awaiting trial on fraud charges. Faucher has a rap sheet “at least 11 pages long,” and has faced 150 charges – mostly fraud-related – throughout his life since he first landed in jail at the age of 15. Faucher has been conning people for decades to pay for his cocaine addiction. Now, at the age of 44, he’s decided to seek help to get himself clean and back on the right path. Given a choice between an early release and probation or a lengthier commitment to a drug-treatment program, he said he would opt for treatment. When he last appeared in court, Faucher said he asked to go to a 26 week drug-treatment program. But his request was denied because a judge ruled Faucher wouldn’t be sufficiently monitored and may return to criminal activities if given pay phone access, as he in the past has used phone scams to con jewellery stores out of thousands of dollars. “I know I have a chance. I have a brain, I have a future,” said Faucher. “I’m asking for help, I don’t understand why I can’t have help.” He’s had periods of sobriety before, but he said his emotional struggles led him back to using drugs. “I was strung out on cocaine, my son died, I got served with divorce papers,” he said. Faucher has been in and out of the Innes Road jail more times than he can count, but he said treatment programs are limited. Wait lists are long, and with every repeat visit he says he sees resources shrink and programs disappear. Sporadic Alcoholics Anonymous meetings do little, he said. Because of his consistent reappearance at the jail, Faucher said he thinks the system has given up on him. “I want to clear up my demons. The drugs, the criminal thinking, the death of my son,” he said. “I think the chances are high I’ll end up back here if I don’t get help.” According to the Ontario Ministry of Community Safety and Correctional Services, 52 per cent of the province’s current 61,303 inmates, both in custody and under community supervision will reoffend within two years of being released. Often inmates can continue to

The federal prisons ombudsman’s report says the presence of homemade alcohol and illicit drugs in federal prisons are still a major safety and security challenge, despite the zero-tolerance stance taken by Correctional Service Canada. The federal department’s budget for substance-abuse programming fell from $11.6 million in 2011-12 to $9.6 million in 2012-13. REHAB PROGRAMS NEED
Critics say rehabilitation has taken a backseat to mandatory minimum sentencing and that the corrections system is doing less and less correcting. Rebecca Jesseman, research and policy analyst for the Canadian Centre on Substance Abuse, said the majority of offenders are currently actively using or have a history of substance abuse. She said offenders often have complex needs regarding resources, but policy can fall victim to ideology. “Not-for-profits that offer services are struggling for funding,” Jesseman said. “Offenders with addictions issues are dealing with a double stigma. There’s a fear of crime in our society and people still feel like substance abuse is a choice you make.” Jesseman said overcrowding in jails means dwindling programming space and an increased demand on staff. “Mandatory minimums and stricter conditions on parole eligibility have an impact at all levels,” she said. Once offenders are released they need the tools to comply with their conditions, she said. “There needs to be a formal period of treatment, not just setting a condition, that sets people up to fail,” she said. “Giving people the
tools they need and addressing the risk factors is important.” Private programs, such as those run by the Ottawa Mission, have emerged as some of the only options for rehabilitative programs and services following cuts to programs and services in jails. “And all of this is happening while the prison population itself is growing,” said Howard Sapers, the federal prisons ombudsman. “So it’s a bit of a double-whammy.” Karen White-Jones, manager of addiction services at the Ottawa Mission, said many of their clients are former prison inmates. The Mission currently operates a day program, a dry wing, a stabilization program and the Lifehouse residential program to help former offenders. “We have a lot of former inmates in the day program, because of the lack of affordable housing. A lot of guys getting discharged from jail end up in the shelter and hear about the day program.”
Mandatory minimums and stricter conditions on parole eligibility have an impact on all levels. REBECCA JESSEMAN ANALYST, CANADIAN CENTRE ON SUBSTANCE ABUSE
The day program is a drop-in clinic; the dry wing offers a place to stay with other people trying to get clean. The stabilization program offers detoxification treatment that typically lasts 30 days. The Lifehouse program, which Parlow is currently attending, is five months long and offers housing to help clients with reintegration. “People leaving jails or prisons may have been abstinent or modified their use, but they haven’t learned the skills to maintain that,” White-Jones said. And parolees are displaced, often fearful of how they’ll function in the real world, she said. “A lot of people who have been institutionalized long-term have real fear,” White-Jones said. “They might be doing well on their addiction or anger management, but there’s still a lot they don’t know about day-to-day life.” White-Jones said every program at the Mission has a wait list. “As soon as a bed empties, there’s someone to fill it,” she said. The popularity of these pro-
grams isn’t surprising to WhiteJones, who said a lot of organizations are struggling to fill the need with limited resources. Prison employment and education programs have also been underfunded and post-secondary education is next to impossible with no Internet access, according to many critics of federal corrections system. In 2009, the federal government announced a plan to eliminate six prison farms, a program that offered employment and life skills. CORCAN, a prison work program provided by Correctional Service Canada, employs inmates around the country in industrialbased jobs, but the positions are few and far between, said Sapers in his recent annual report. “When I visit an institution, typically I’ll see maybe half a dozen guys in the yard with a broom all sweeping the same area of the yard because it’s the only employment that they have,” Sapers said. “It’s not very meaningful employment.” Without the proper treatment or programs, it’s normal to see offenders cycle through the jail several times without receiving any rehabilitation programs, said Denis Collin, Ontario Public Service Employees Union local unit president for the Ottawa-Carleton Detention Centre. Collin has worked as a correctional officer for 13 years, including the Ottawa-Carleton Detention Centre and the former Rideau Correctional Treatment Centre. The treatment centre had programs, ranging from workshops to a working farm. “You had all sorts of programs, where at least when the offender would be coming out and had served their time, you would give them hope and some sort of option or direction to have some options once they leave,” he said. “And the word “corrections” is exactly that. It’s meant to correct behaviour and meant to try and give people some resources to move their life forward.”

Cycling with caution
T
he death of a cyclist in an Ottawa charity bike ride on Sept. 6 has sparked a flurry of discussion concerning bike safety. Laurie Strano, 40, was killed in a crash with a garbage truck on River Road, south of Manotick, while participating in the fifth-annual Ride the Rideau, a fundraiser for cancer research run by the Ottawa Hospital Foundation. It’s still too early to make any decisions about the future of the event, as Ottawa police are still investigating the crash, Tim Kluke, president and CEO of the Ottawa Hospital Foundation said during a Sept. 8 press conference. But there are a few obvious considerations about the event, which should already be under discussion. First, the route: event organizers might want to consider a different location for the event, one that is further removed from traffic speeding along at 80 kilometres an hour and sometimes greater speeds. River Road only has two vehicle lanes and no designated bicycle lane, making it a tight fit
between cyclists and passing cars. It only takes one distracted moment, either on the part of the motorist or the cyclist, for a collision to occur. Ride the Rideau already has a number of safety measures in place: police were contracted to work several intersections to watch over a portion of the ride – but they were located north of where the crash occurred. The foundation’s safety measures included some 300 volunteers, many of whom acted as ride-along guides, and eight police officers. Part of the problem lies squarely in the lap of the cyclists, suggested several of the participants of the event on the Ride the Rideau Facebook page. One competitor said he saw several competitors “blow right through� four way stops. Others complained about the fact the event went on despite rainfall in the morning. But even if organizers were unable to change the behaviour of cyclists, Ride the Rideau would become a much safer event if organizers simply selected a different route.

Becoming alarmed by the silence
A
car alarm went off the other day in the neighbourhood. It didn’t last long, just six honks. Car alarms used to go on for hours, or so it seemed. This one was, however briefly, unnerving and annoying, but – the thought suddenly occurred – it was rare. Yeah: we don’t hear them that much anymore. For which we can be grateful. It wasn’t long ago the peace of the evening was frequently broken by the steady honking of a distressed automobile, waiting, as we all were, for its owner to do something about it. Not to look a gift horse in the mouth, but it’s interesting to know why all that should suddenly cease. Looking for an answer, you type a couple of phrases into Google, where

enon about fewer car alarms going off. Some speculate that car alarm technology has improved – in other words that birds and specks of dust and clouds passing overhead don’t set the horn to honking any more. Technology has made a difference in another way as well. Cars, we learn, are harder to steal, mostly due to innovations that have nothing to do with alarms. Newer cars are built with systems that keep them from starting unless the driver uses a key recognized by the built-in computer. And there’s tracking technology available too. Because of this some manufacturers have stopped putting noise-making alarms on their cars. So maybe there are fewer cars with alarms, and maybe fewer people are trying to steal the cars.

bear out this last point. It’s intriguing what you can find out just looking for a couple of facts about car alarms. What you find out, courtesy of The Economist, is that crime has been in a steady decline all around the world since the 1950s, and nowhere is this more evident than in the area of automobile theft. In New York, the annual number of car thefts has dropped by 93 per cent over the past 20 years. In England and Wales, 400,000 cars were reported stolen in 1997; in 2012, the number was just 86,000. Who says there’s no good news in the paper? Certain questions remain. Can we really believe that the welcome silence in our neighbourhoods is solely due to a world-wide trend away from grand theft auto? What about the well-grounded suspicion that most car alarms are set off by law-abiding people doing something silly with their car keys?
One possible explanation is that manufacturers have made car keys more idiot-proof. The other possible explanation is that we have made ourselves more idiot-proof. Could that be true? If so, a celebration is in order. Just don’t honk your horn.

When adulthood is postponed BRYNNA LESLIE Capital Muse
Talk to anyone in administration or faculty at a postsecondary institution today, however, and you’ll realize that colleges and universities are not only marketing to parents – as well as prospective students – from the outset, but that they’ve also found ways to stay in constant communication with parents over the course of the student’s academic life. This includes parent-only web portals, invitations to special events, and in some cases regular emails between professors and parents about a student’s progress. Parents think they’re doing their adult children a favour, that they’re supporting them by fighting with professors for extra credit opportunities or arranging to have alternative exam times.

The event will take place starting at 7 p.m. at St. Luke’s Anglican Church, 760 Somerset St. W.

Home is where the heart is The opportunity to grow a family overnight does not come around very often, but three brothers in Orleans want to give that chance to an existing family with big hearts and a few rooms to spare. These children are already part of the community in Orleans, it’s their home, and they would love to be able to stay here. These siblings were lucky enough to stay together in foster care thanks to a caring foster parent, but now need a forever family that can help them grow and prosper throughout the rest of their childhood, into their teens, and onward into adulthood. The children themselves are doing really well. They are active, inquisitive, energetic and just lots of fun. The oldest—a pre-teen—does well in school and has a strong interest in technology, and would respond well to parents who share those interests.

The younger brothers are more cuddly and bubbly, they just need the support, stability and dedication of a forever family to help them reach their full potential in school, though they’re still very early on in their journey and have lots of time to figure things out. All three love spending time outdoors, and would really enjoy being part of a family that spends time outside, especially around water, as fishing and swimming are right up their alley! These children are have a strong bond with each other already, but really want the love, guidance and support that a forever family will give them as they develop through the most important years of their lives.

Want the Real Beauty Benefits of Collagen? Generate It. Don’t Eat It!
BioSil Advanced Collagen Generator ™
Clinical Trial Results
• Reduces Fine Lines and Wrinkles • Increases Skin Elasticity • Thickens and Strengthens Hair • Strengthens Nails By now you know. Adding body collagen directly reduces wrinkles, increases skin elasticity, and adds vital moisture to your skin. Indirectly, collagen thickens and strengthens your hair. You may also know that collagen production slows by 1% per year after the age of 21. Can you gain it back? Yes. But not by eating collagen. You see, collagen is a protein. When you ingest it, your body breaks it down, like any other protein, and uses it as food. When you want the real beauty benefits of collagen, you have to generate it.
BioSil™ generates collagen by activating the collagen pro producing cells in your body known as fibroblasts. It is clinically proven to increase collagen formation. In fact, in the clinical trial the women taking BioSil™ reduced wrinkles by 30%, increased skin elasticity by 89% and thickened and strengthened their hair by 13% compared to women not taking BioSil™. So when you want genuine visible results from collagen, generate it, don’t eat it. Experience the beautiful difference for yourself!

THE REALITY IS,
YOU’RE HELPING CHEO On August 4, 2013 the Laviolette family was enjoying a fun day on the water when disaster struck. Brad was tubing behind the boat when he fell off and was thrown toward the back of the boat. “He told us that he could see it all happening before him. Brad said that the propeller was coming straight for his stomach. He was strong enough to push away but the propeller hit both his legs,” says dad Rob with emotion in his voice. Brad was wearing a wet suit which was fortunate for him as it was able to hold his legs in place. Sadly, the propeller severed both his legs and one tibia and he needed to be airlifted to CHEO. Surgeons worked hard to save his legs. He lost 80 percent of his right quadricep muscle and required intensive physiotherapy to help him heal and get mobile again. Brad is a true superhero! He spent two and half months at CHEO and it was not an easy road but he was a fighter. He began in a wheelchair, graduated to a walker, then crutches and today is standing tall and proud walking on his own two feet unassisted. What true determination! He’s had multiple surgeries, had a bone infection that required six months of antibiotics and yet this 17-year-old is still smiling. In a recent radio interview
Brad commented on the staff at CHEO. “Doctor Kontio, the nurses on the fifth floor and child life specialist Heather were all so great to me,” said Brad. “I’ve been fully supported by my family as well.” “I refer to Bradley as my superhero. His father and I are so proud of him for all he has overcome,” says mom Manon. “Our entire family has been so impressed with the staff at CHEO; from doctors to custodians. We were informed at every step what was happening with Bradley. The compassion and understanding from all the staff was really comforting.” The Laviolette family knows all too well that no one knows when they’ll need CHEO. By supporting the Dream of a Lifetime Lottery you make it possible for the staff at CHEO to do their job…saving the lives of children and youth. Just ask Brad.
WE ARE SO GRATEFUL TO THE TRAUMA TEAM, REHAB TEAM, AND THE FIFTH FLOOR STAFF WHO TOOK CARE OF HIM. THEY SAVED MY SON’S LIFE AND HIS LEGS!

The Carleton University Gee-Gees and the University of Ottawa Ravens will face off at TD Place on Sept. 20 in the latest edition of the Panda Game featuring the longstanding rivals.

hospice located at 110 McCurdy Dr., will be the first public event that community members can come to and find out what Hospice Care Ottawa is doing at the site. “We will have goodies and give little tours and let people know what the expansion plans are,” she said. “The open house is really to give members of the community a chance to see what’s going on inside.” Also coming to the hospice for the first time will be a day program, allowing up to 20 people reaching the end of their life to spend a day of socializing, participating in music and art therapy and other activities at the hospice, while simultaneously giving caregivers a day of respite. “The day hospice program is designed for people who have been diagnosed with a terminal illness, but are still able to live at home with support,” said Sullivan. “The idea is to provide social support so that there is the opportunity to talk and connect with people who might be experiencing the same concern about end of life issues,” she said. “We have about 20 people in each day, and we hope to get three days running it at the Ruddy-Shenkman site at some point, but we are starting with the one day.” The current day program group will be relocated from the Bell’s Corners United Church to the Ruddy-Shenkman Hospice, meaning no new spots will be available until the organization can secure more funds, said Sullivan. Each day of the day program costs about $1,000, she said, and while Hospice Care Ottawa is applying for govern-

Donations to the hospice can be made to the day program, as well as to the Hospice Ottawa West Capital Campaign which is a specific fundraising campaign to construct the live-in portion of the hospice. The campaign has raised about $4.8 million, with the fundraising goal being $6.2 million, said Sullivan. Donors like John Ruddy and William Shenkman (for whom the hospice is named) have been extremely generous, but “We need a final push,” said Sullivan. The overarching goal of the hospice is to keep people living at home for as long as possible through in-home programing and the hospice day program, said Sullivan.
“(Providing that support) has an impact on how many people have to end up in hospital, how many caregivers fall ill or sick because they have overextended themselves, and it also has an impact on caregivers, we find, in the bereavement and grief process as well,” she said. This is largely accomplished through volunteers, said Sullivan, as well as the hospices’ donors, the Bruyère Foundation which has been promoting the Capital Campaign in partnership with Hospice Care Ottawa, and many others who donated their time and skills to renovate the Ruddy-Shenkman Hospice. To find out more about how hospice care is changing, the organization’s AGM starting at 6:30 p.m. will include a talk by Dr. José Pereira.

Kanata burlesque class giving women new lease on life Adam Kveton
adam.kveton@metroland.com
Community - There is nothing wrong with women learning to be sexy and move in their own body, says Kari Hummer. Far from it, she says. It’s actually empowering. That’s how she felt, anyway, after taking dancing up again after leaving a volatile relationship. And, when she shared her love of dance with other women, she learned two things: she was definitely not the only woman who could regain her self-esteem that way, and, to accomplish that, burlesque is best. Hummer began offering dance classes in Pembroke in 2006, she said. “The reason I started was because I had been in (a bad) relationship and I didn’t really know who I was,” she said. “I felt very uncomfortable in my own body and I wanted to do something about it, so I started researching and taking action on building my own confidence, my self-esteem
and feeling comfortable in my body. “One of my passions that I had was dance and I started sharing that with people just for I guess connection and I thought, you know, people might like to do it.” She was right. At first, the classes were not really “burlesque-ee” she said. “It was more just teaching some fun dance routines to the women,” said Hummer. But, when Hummer ventured to teach a “sensual dance” class, she found her students loved it. “Women wanted to learn, ‘How do you feel feminine and feel sensual in your body and feel OK with that?’” she said. That’s when she started combining the skills and techniques she learned with her sensual dance class. The response was amazing, she said. Women who had suffered abuse as well as those who hadn’t were not just enjoying the class but learning to walk confidently in their own skin.

Dance instructor Kari Hummer, centre, leads members of her transformational burlesque class in a routine on Aug. 29. The class has been pushing women to feel at home in their own skin, said some of Hummer’s students. “I thought, ‘Wow, this is something that could really help people,’” said Hummer. She moved to Kanata four years ago, and has been offering transformational burlesque classes for about a year and a half, now working out of the
Kanata Recreation Complex. Ashley Nuovo, aka Ruby Noir in dance class, began taking classes with Hummer while living in Pembroke, and has since moved to Kanata as well and has continued taking classes.
“I had been a dancer years before but I had always struggled with my femininity,” she said. “I thought (the class) was a chance to open and explore that side of myself.” Nuovo admits to being sceptical at first of both being in a classroom with so many women, and of the self-esteem exercises. Now, she said she is a convert. “It’s unbelievable,” said Nuovo. “I feel more comfortable in my skin, and it’s just been great for self-esteem in general.” Trisha Bond, aka Honey Rider, said she had no particular reason for joining the class a year-and-a-half ago other than because it looked like fun. But she said it helped her as well. “I think the biggest thing is I don’t feel like I need to fly under the radar anymore,” said Bond. “I always kind of hid in my life. I didn’t look at people when I walked into a room, my eyes were down, I didn’t feel confident, I never wore colour, so it’s really built my confi-
dence and my self-esteem in a really healthy way, and people around me notice.” Hummer said the classes work because it’s a little scary, and forces women to become vulnerable, but in a supportive atmosphere. “Most people have a misconception about what we do,” said Hummer. “They think we just dance and shake things. Some people even think that we take our clothes off and we don’t. That’s not even at all what it’s about. “I just tell them that the dancing part is a way out of people’s comfort zone because 95 per cent of the women that come here have never danced before.” Though she has met women who have gone through abuse as bad and worse than what she endured, Hummer said the class works for all kinds of women, so long as they are ready for it, because it is combating a general trend.

CHARITABLE GIVING WITH LIFE INSURANCE POLICIES - A WIN-WIN FOR BOTH FAMILY AND CHARITIES The use of life insurance in the context of charitable gifting at death will appeal to those who want to reduce or eliminate taxes at death and/or have a strong desire to make a larger bequest to one or more charities. By Shawn Ryan, CFP, TEP Partner and Senior Insurance and Estate Planner Scrivens Insurance and Financial Solutions
Life insurance is a popular, practical way to make a significant gift to CHEO. Your donation will be wisely administered through investments which will provide a stable source of income to CHEO for years to come. There are three main methods you can gift life insurance: by making a bequest of the proceeds of a life insurance policy through your Will; donating the policy during your lifetime at fair market value; or by naming CHEO as beneficiary and remaining as policy owner.
Here is a scenario where a mother owns purchase a permanent life insurance policy a family business and wishes to gift the for $500,000 and donate the proceeds to shares to her adult children through a charity through her Will. provision in her Will.

Glebe Fine Arts Show welcomes artists from across city Michelle Nash
michelle.nash@metroland.com
Arts - Some of Ottawa’s best fine art will be on display in the Glebe this weekend. The Glebe Community Centre
will transform into a gallery for the annual fine art show on Sept. 20-21. Celebrating its ninth year, this year a number of new artists will fill Scotton Hall to show off their wares for the two-day event. “The Glebe Fine Arts Show pro-
vides Ottawa with a cultural event not to be missed,” said organizer Linda Bordage. “If you are looking to find the perfect piece for your office, family room, living room or bedroom, this event is for you.”
Ontario’s First Gold Level Cycling Community
Cycle Tracks • Dedicated space for cyclists at the same level as a sidewalk
There will also be many returning artists; Anne Remmer Thomson, Margaret Chwialkowska, David Houlton, John Shea, Olaf Krassnitzky to name a few. A full list of participating artists is available at glebefineartshow.ca. “It is like walking through an art gallery but with one important difference, you can not only purchase the artwork right there but also meet the artist at the same time.” Bordage said. According to fellow organizer Eileen Durand, over 1,000 people attended the show last year, which draws art lovers from across the National Capital Region, offering a variety of mediums for patrons, including embroidery, photography, pottery and paintings.
Aside from artists showing off and selling their art pieces, local students will participate in the event. “They will have their own booth and show things they have done,” Durand said. “It’s nice to see the new generation of artists helping out with the show and having an opportunity to show their art.” The students also volunteer, helping set up, offering any help to the exhibitors and offer support during the show. Admission is free and there will be door prizes and a café open with tables and chairs, serving a light lunch, soups, beverages and desserts. The show runs from 10 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. both days.

City seeking more ideas to improve the Byward Market Michelle Nash michelle.nash@metroland.com
News - What would you like to see change for the better in the Byward Market? That is the question the city has posed to residents to help improve the ailing market. “Right now the market is not a friendly place to shop,� said Jake Rupert, the city staffer who is currently working on a report to help improve the Lowertown shopping district. “It’s busy, there are too many people. The anchor building isn’t designed for fresh produce. It’s lost its cache as a place to go. So we need to reintroduce fresh food and local products to the market. This should make it return to what it was.� Rupert, attended the Lowertown Community Association’s Sept. 8 meeting to show residents preliminary designs and ideas on how to improve the market. Rupert then asked residents to share other ideas with him to ensure the end results reflect the desires of the community. The city approved spending of $80,000 in June 2013 on the more in-depth study of ideas to improve
FILE
City staff is currently looking at a number of ideas to help make the Byward Market more functional and enjoyable. Some of the ideas they are thinking about is ways to add more fresh food and local products to the area. the market Rupert is working on -$50,000 has been dedicated to study the policy and funding needed to create a new governance model for the market and $30,000 has been dedicated to a plan to improve the
streetscape. Those funds were needed to implement the suggestions in a report called Strengthening the Future of the ByWard Market, prepared by New York-based Project for Public
Spaces. That report recommends things like creating a non-profit group to manage the market vendors, providing incentives for food retailers, improving safety and creating more vibrant public spaces. Since June, Rupert has been working at developing a business case for the market and create a new governance model as well as to create a public space in the market. “We are looking at what will be managed, how to use the public spaces,� Rupert said. “We will also look at the number of bars and restaurants, whether they are working and if they aren’t what are we going to do about that.� Both the community and the PPS report said the market needed facelift and that local, fresh food and products become once again what the market is all about. Rupert reported that is his main goal with this project. “We want to support fresh food and local products,� Rupert said. Only, it’s not as simple as luring farmers and small businesses to the market, he added. Rupert reported that to make the market more functional than it operates now, it would need to involve finding a business plan which brings in money as well as promotes public use of space. As an example, one idea that staff is looking at is reducing or removing parking in the market, making it possible to create a large central courtyard for people to flock to. Parking could be created underground, Rupert said. “The report said we have a market in a parking lot,� Rupert said. “So we are looking at it as a clean slate -- what would you do?� Ideas that are floating around,

Rupert said are to make the market building less crammed for space and allow for more room for both stalls and shoppers to walk around. By changing the layout of the market building or creating a “ballroom� where the building is completely wide open, it could allow for a flexible space for vendors, Rupert said. Aside from making the market viable, Rupert said, it is important to note that the market needs to be a functional shopping district throughout its redevelopment. “The changes we are talking about could take years,� he said. Residents did share concern with Rupert about what any reduction in parking could do to their neighbouring streets. Rupert confirmed that before any removal of parking took place a transportation study would be conducted. “Right now it’s very preliminary, once we come to a design, then we would look at the impacts,� he said. WHO WILL RUN THE MARKET
When it comes to determining what type of governance model would work best for the downtown attraction, Rupert said staff is leaning towards a non-profit model, such as a Municipal Service Corporation which would work and coordinate with the district. “What I want from you is an idea of what should it do, who should be on the board? These types of models are what we make them,� he said. A similar model already in operation is the Covent Garden Market in London, Ont. “What we are doing is bringing forward something that needs leadership,� Rupert said. “But it needs to be flexible because there are so many interests in the market. It’s about bridging competing public and private interests.� Residents who attended the meeting asked how they could comment, as well as whether there would be further opportunity to comment in the future, once any ideas become concrete in a report. Rupert said they would be seeking comments probably in January 2015, before the staff report is presented to council. Comments about the ideas Rupert presented can be sent to the association at info@lowertown-basseville. ca. The next step for the project is to ensure anything determined in the report will receive budget priority in 2015. The report is scheduled to be complete in the first quarter of 2015.

City gives anti-landfill group another $25,000 Coalition has now received $75,000 in taxpayer-funded grants to fight waste facility developer Laura Mueller laura.mueller@metroland.com
News -The city is bolstering a community effort to fight a proposed landfill in Carlsbad Springs to the tune of $25,000. The recent top-up in a grant city council gave to Capital Region Citizens Coalition for the Protection of the Environment brings the total funding to $75,000 of taxpayers’ dollars. The money allows the group to hire experts in hydrogeology, biology and other fields to review environmental assessment documents – something members would be hard-pressed to do on their own, said Susanne Langlois, president of the group. “I’m up against Goliath here,” she said. Langlois recently brought a copy
of the draft environmental assessment with her to a meeting of the agriculture and rural affairs committee. The voluminous tome, commissioned by the proponent of the waste facility, Taggart-Miller, filled six large binders with dense technical information. Being able to spend some of the initial $50,000 the city gave to the group allowed it to hire an expert who flagged a major discrepancy in the data regarding how long it would take water to penetrate the bedrock. While Taggart-Miller’s consultants estimated 500 years, the CRCCPE’s consultant said the calculations used were flawed, meaning the water could reach the bedrock in 50 years. “There are a heck of a lot of assumptions and no data to back them up,” Langlois said. “I wouldn’t be able to do this without this money.” The group has also fundraised
about $10,000 on its own, Langlois said. Having another set of experts arguing against the landfill is in the city’s best interests, said Cumberland Coun. Stephen Blais, who opposes having the facility in his ward. City staff has also raised questions about the analysis of air quality in the draft environmental assessment, as well as soil issues that would affect the groundwater, so providing additional funds for other experts to help bolster those arguments is a good way to oppose the dump. Landfills are a different beast than other types of development, such as a building or industrial facility, Blais said. Being able to effectively par-
ticipate in the process is much more difficult for average residents who don’t have the technical background, he said. West Carleton-March Coun. Eli El-Chantiry, whose residents also got intervener funding to fight a proposed landfill expansion in Carp in the past, said the money helps groups get on more equal footing with landfill proponents. Taggart-Miller, the company proposing the Carlsbad Springs landfill and recycling centre, did not respond to a request for comment about the intervener funding. The reason Capital Region Citizens Coalition for the Protection of the Environment didn’t get the full
$75,000 in intervener funding right away was due to concerns raised by staff and politicians about how past groups in West Carleton and Navan used the money the city gave them, Blais said. Money was being used for public relations and promotions, including messaging opposing the city, El-Chantiry said. He said the city learned its lesson and used more specific wording in the city-council motion and funding agreement needed to make the money available. The money must be used to conduct technical reviews and for educational purposes – not for public relations. The initial $50,000 for the Carlsbad group came from the waste reserve fund, while the additional $25,000 was allocated from the city’s account for unforeseen expenses.

CHEO lottery on the road to Vancouver Grey Cup 2014 Dream Home opens for tours in Manotick Emma Jackson emma.jackson@metroland.com
News – The Children’s Hospital of Eastern Ontario is taking its 24th-annual lottery on the road. This year’s Dream of a Lifetime lottery campaign will start handing out prizes right off the mark this year as it prepares to send 200 winners to an Ottawa RedBlacks home game against Toronto and one lucky winner to the Grey Cup game in Vancouver at the end of November. But there’s a catch: to win, customers must buy their $100 Dream
of a Lifetime lottery ticket before midnight on Sept. 26, at which point they’ll be eligible for the RedBlacks ticket draws as well as the Grey Cup draw. The 200 RedBlacks prize packs include two RedBlacks jerseys and tickets to the team’s final home game on Nov. 7. The grand prize includes two Grey Cup tickets, airfare for two to Vancouver and three nights at the Renaissance Vancouver Harbourside Hotel. For the second year in a row, the CHEO Foundation has partnered with Minto to build its fully-furnished dream home in the Mahogany devel-

opment south of Manotick. This year’s grand prize includes the immaculately furnished 483-squaremetre-home (complete with an inhome theatre, walk-out basement and the latest home decor fashions), a 2015 Cadillac ATS Luxury, house cleaning for a year, $5,000 in groceries and $100,000 cash. At the Dream Home grand opening on Sept. 15, foundation president Kevin Keohane was quick to thank ticket buyers for supporting the pediatric hospital located on Smyth Road in Ottawa. “The priority in all of this is making dreams come true for CHEO’s kids, and then after that there’s the possibility that you could win this dream home,” Keohane said. He said the lottery campaign has netted $42.5 million since it began in 1991, and last year’s lottery alone raised $2.8 million for the facility. The foundation raises about $14 million annually, Keohane said, and the lottery is a big part of making sure the hospital has the equipment, staff and knowledge it needs to deal with its 250,000 annual patient visits. Currently, donations are bankrolling $5 million in renovations for the hospital’s day surgery unit, a new MRI machine worth $3 million and ongoing in-house medical research.

No one knows CHEO’s importance better than Wendover teen Brad Laviolette. The 17-year-old was tubing on the water with his family last August when he suddenly faced disaster. “I fell off the tube and my dad lost sight of me and I got stuck under the boat,” Lavoilette told a captive audience at the dream home on Sept. 15. “The propeller severed both my legs.” He was airlifted to CHEO, where trauma surgeons worked to save his legs. In the end, he lost 80 per cent of his right quadricep muscle and required intensive physiotherapy to help him get back on his feet. But it wasn’t an easy road for Lavoilette. He had multiple surgeries, and developed an infection in his bone that required six months of antibiotics. “I was pretty scared,” Lavoilette said. “I thought I would lose my legs, but CHEO basically saved them.”
CHEO has become his second home, Lavoilette said, and his nurses and doctors have become a second family. Today, Lavoilette still pays weekly visits to the hospital, in which he is considered a “frequent flyer” patient, according to child life specialist Heather Crawford. She worked with Lavoilette to find a way forward. “Bradley is himself a very resilient individual,” Crawford said. “He is charismatic and willing to push through.” The dream home is located at 536 Bridgeport Ave off Manotick Main Street. The home is open for tours from noon to 8 p.m. Monday to Friday, and from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. on weekends and holidays. Tickets are on sale now at dreamofalifetime.ca for $100 for one or $250 for three. Early bird prizes will be drawn on Dec. 17 and the final draws will be made Jan. 6 and 7, 2015. R0012896153

Airborne mould detected at science museum Ottawa West News staff
News - Mould detected at the Canada Science and Technology Museum has caused the closure of the facility until further notice. The museum indicated in a Sept. 11 release that it would be closing until the source of the mould can be found and properly cleaned up. At that time, the museum could not say how long it would last. The mould, found in the
south wall of the museum, was detected during the building’s annual September clean-up and maintenance. Staff working in the museum was evacuated as soon as the air test results showed the high levels of airborne mould and have been relocated during the clean-up. According to the museum, no visitors were affected by the immediate closure, as the museum was scheduled to be closed on Friday, Sept. 12 for maintenance. Any events planned for
the museum, including birthday parties and group visits, have been cancelled. “The health, safety, and wellbeing of the people who visit us and work at the museum are our absolute priority,” said Alex Benay, president of the Canada Science and Technology Museums Corp. “We took action as soon as the situation was discovered, and we will continue to show the same transparency following the evolution of the situation.”

Robert Graham touches a checkpoint to register his time during an orienteering event at Pinhey’s Point in 2013. Ottawa Orienteering held a night orienteering event in Beaverbrook and Kanata Lakes on Sept. 13. Hunter. That area of Kanata was a particular challenge for orienteers, he said. “Kanata is ideally suited for navigation issues because there are so many linear parks and pathways, so if you keep going down the wrong one or if you miss a turn off of one you could end up having to go a long way around, so navigation is at a premium,” said Hunter. Private residences were out of bounds, he said, and night orienteers were required to wear headlamps or bring flashlights, as well as reflective armbands provided by
Safer Roads Ottawa. Despite some nasty weather on Saturday, the event was a success, said Hunter. More than 30 people participated in the night event, and 86 participated in the day time events. Orienteers came from as far as Montréal and Rochester, New York, to compete. Participants came back with stories of wildlife encounters, mistaking the animals’ eyes for the reflective material placed on the route flags, only to see their goal hop away from them. While presenting a new problem for orienteers, Hunter

race put on by Ottawa Orienteering. The race, which anyone could participate in, served to start the season for the club, as well as begin to garner enthusiasm for the upcoming North American Orienteering Championships, taking place in the Carp Hills and Arnprior on Thanksgiving weekend. Orienteering, which has racers figure out the quickest way through checkpoints based only on a map and compass, generally takes place during the day, but the night event served to spice things up, said Gord Hunter, one of the directors of the event. “(Orienteering) at night time is literally seeing it in a new light,” he said. The event was likely the first night orienteering event to take place in Kanata, said Hunter. Orienteers good take part in one of four races from 3.3 kilometres for intermediate orienteers to 6.3 kilometres for more experienced participants. There were also daytime races held on Sept. 14, with lengths ranging from 2.7 kilometres to 7.4 kilometres. The various routes were all in the Beaverbrook and Kanata Lakes areas, from Teron Road in the east to Goulbourn Forced Road in the west. The races began and ended at the Royal Oak on March Road, making for a pleasant change for orienteers who often meet in fields and forests, said

good deals, Sandy Hill will also host a sale on Sept. 20 from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. Organized by Action Sandy Hill, the sale typically coincides with a “welcome to the neighbourhood” barbecue, but this year, due to a lack of volunteers, the barbecue will not go ahead. A list of homes participating in the event is available at ash-acs.ca/sandy-hill-yardsale-2014. Neighbourhood businesses have also been invited to participate by setting up tables outside of their establishments. A decision concerning the rain date: Sept. 21, will be made and posted on Action Sandy Hill’s website on Friday, Sept. 19.

New Edinburgh and Sandy Hill will host community-wide garage sales on Sept. 20.
0904.R0012873375
News - Two communitywide garage sales aim to offload goods to some of Ottawa’s thrifty shoppers. New Edinburgh’s Crichton Community Council will host the New Edinburgh Community Garage Sale on Sept. 20 from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. rain or shine. The sale welcomes all New Edinburgh residents to participate. “It’s a great community event,” said Catherine McConkey, event organizer. “There is a lot of exchange between neighbours and it’s a great way to get to know your neighbours or reconnect with them.”
The council asks anyone who participates to donate 10 per cent of their sales to the council. The money donated helps fund family activities and the maintenance costs for the community skating rink. McConkey said although it’s up to each individual home or apartment to participate, there typically are tables set up along MacKay Street and Dufferin Road, on the grass along Rideau Hall’s fence. McKonkey and other council volunteers will walk through the community to every participating sale to collect donations. If thrifty shoppers are looking for more than one place to find some potential

Community rallies behind Glebe cook Fundraisers planned for Sept. 20 at restaurants across city Erin McCracken
erin.mccracken@metroland.com
News - The afternoon that David Muzaliwa was supposed to show up for work and never arrived, Jilleen Niles was worried sick. “He was (usually) prompt, he was reliable, he was 15 minutes early for his shift,” said Niles, kitchen manager of Corner Bar & Grill in the Glebe where Muzaliwa was a line cook. She called and messaged him on Twitter,
but to no avail. It wasn’t until the following morning that she received the grim news about her friend in a phone call from a social worker at the Civic campus of The Ottawa Hospital. The avid runner had been accidentally hit by a vehicle the previous afternoon on Aug. 20 at the corner of Bank Street and Heron Road while doing his usual afternoon run. Niles listened in shock as the social worker said they needed to connect with Muzaliwa’s family, who still did not know their loved one had suffered a critical head injury. “I started crying,” said Niles, who helped the hospital contact the family.

Apple cinnamon doughnuts a sweet treat anytime Lifestyle - The addition of apples makes these baked doughnuts soft and moist. Once the batter is mixed, it’s best to bake them as soon as possible. Preparation time: 30 minutes. Baking Time: 10 to 12 minutes. Makes 12. Ingredients
• 375 mL (1-1/2 cups) all-purpose flour • 10 mL (2 tsp) baking powder • 2 mL (1/2 tsp) salt • 2 mL (1/2 tsp) ground cardamom (optional) • 2 eggs • 150 mL (2/3 cup) granulated sugar • 175 mL (3/4 cup) coarsely grated peeled apple • 50 mL (1/4 cup) buttermilk • 25 mL (2 tbsp) vegetable oil or
butter, melted • 4 mL (3/4 tsp) vanilla Cinnamon sugar • 90 mL (6 tbsp) granulated sugar • 7 mL (1-1/2 tsp) ground cinnamon • 90 mL (6 tbsp) butter, melted Preparation
In medium bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, salt, and cardamom, if using. In a large bowl, whisk eggs with sugar; stir in apple, but-
termilk, oil and vanilla. Stir in flour mixture until moistened. Spray two six-doughnut pans with cooking spray. Fill each cavity with about 50 ml (1/4 cup) batter. (If you have only one pan, cover and refrigerate remaining batter.) Bake in 180 C (350 F) oven for 10 to 12 minutes or until doughnuts spring back when touched and are light in colour. Let cool in pan for three minutes; invert onto rack and let cool completely. Repeat with remaining batter if necessary, cleaning and re-spraying pan. Cinnamon sugar: In medium bowl, mix sugar with cinnamon. Brush or dip doughnuts in butter to coat all over. Dip doughnuts into cinnamon sugar, pressing lightly to adhere. Foodland Ontario

Soup was a stick-to-your-ribs kind of meal
T
he big white granite pot never left the back of the Findlay Oval. It might blacken around the bottom edge, and sitting close to the reservoir, it never really got down to a boil until Mother felt it was ready to be moved closer to a front burner. This was Mother’s soup pot. It was as much a part of our kitchen, as the old pine table and the back-to-thewall cupboard, and the only time it left the stove was when its innards were ready for the table. If soup ever came in tin cans, and could be bought at Briscoe’s General Store, none of that extravagance ever came through our door. Soup was just another food that could be made from what we grew on the farm, albeit mostly from leftovers from our kitchen table after a meal was over.
MARY COOK Mary Cook’s Memories Pea and potato soup were never made in the big granite pot, mainly because it was already in use on the back of the Findlay Oval. My sister Audrey called Mother’s soup pot “scrap heaven.” That was because not a crumb of a leftover was ever thrown out, and these “scraps” were what formed the bulk of the soup, and “heaven” because the aroma’s coming from the pot, filled us with anticipation of what was in store for us when it was time to add the soup to a meal.
Thank You!
Of course, there were never any scraps from our dinner plates. They would be wiped clean by a crust of bread, and heaven forbid that there would be as much as a half a carrot left to be eaten on your plate! As Mother would say, if we ever wasted a morsel of food, “you are taking it right out of the mouth of a starving Armenian” who I was pretty sure lived in Arnprior. No, the leftovers would be what were left in the bowls or on the meat platter at the end of a meal. Now, there never was very

ture of vegetables, the onions, and the three bay leaves -- never two leaves, always three. Mother explained that she always used three so that she would know exactly how many to dish out and throw away when it came time to eat the soup. Although she could never give me a name, she assured me that someone from the Barr Line had choked on a bay leaf, and she wasn’t taking any chances. Although we ate two hefty meals a day, one at noon hour and one at night, when Father was going back out to work in the fields or the barns after our supper, that’s when the soup pot was brought to the table. Those nights, supper would mean a big bowl of soup, maybe a plate of cold headcheese, fried potatoes, enough sliced homemade bread to feed half of Renfrew County, and of course, this time of year, a platter of freshly picked tomatoes and cucumbers. That was called a light supper.

It was always a mysmuch left after our big family had attacked the table, but there was always a bit of meat, or a few vegetables, leftover gravy, all of which was put into Mother’s soup pot on the back of the cook stove. Even bones from the roasts were simmered, and carefully scooped out just before the soup was brought to the table. Our old collie, Sport, made short work of the bones out on the back stoop. And there it simmered away, with Mother taking an occasional peek into the pot to make sure everything was well covered with water. And often she would take a teaspoon off the spoon holder on the kitchen table and dip it into the pot, blow on it to cool it down, and sip. It was then she would add another dash of salt and pepper if needed. The pot was kept covered, but that didn’t stop the wonderful aroma from seeping out and filling the kitchen.

tery what you were spooning into your mouth the night we were served the soup. You may be able to distinguish the carrots and the onions, but by the time everything had been simmering for so long, the potatoes and parsnips were as one. It wasn’t unusual to find a meatball, a smidgen of a pork chop, and even chunks of roast beef or the remains of a chicken leg in your soup bowl. Whatever had been left on the table after a meal, regardless what it was, went into the soup pot. The night we had the soup, it was a “stick-to-yourribs” kind of meal, and when supper was over, back onto the stove went the pot. More water added, three more bay leaves, and the pot was ready and waiting for Mother’s next batch of soup. It was recycling at its finest. Long before the term became popular. Mother was a master at recycling, but without a doubt, her pot of ever-simmering soup on the back of the Findlay Oval was one our favourite meals back during those lean Depression years.

States – in order to help their son in his recovery. With that in mind and knowing Muzaliwa helped his parents financially, Niles has stepped in to rally the community around the family. She organized a fundraiser on Aug. 29 at the Corner Bar & Grill in the Glebe, which generated $1,000. Another is planned for Sept. 20 at all three Corner Bar & Grills in the Glebe, Westboro and Orléans. “Knowing David, I knew every month he would set money aside for his family,” Niles said. “Who’s going to help him and his family? I just wanted to do everything I could for them. “He’s such an extraordinary person,” the Manor Park resident said. “I just want to make sure he gets the best, and that his family is taken care of.” Proceeds from the inaugural fundraiser helped pay for Muzaliwa’s last month of rent at his Alta Vista apartment, and to help move his belong-
ings back to his family’s home in Greely. But it will be some time before he is able to leave the hospital, though he has been beating the odds so far. For the first 10 days following the accident, the 27year-old remained in critical condition. His brain was so badly swollen doctors had to remove part of his skull to allow it to swell and retract, Niles said. It was at this point, doctors gave David’s family the option of taking him off medical support, his condition was so grave. “They gave him a five-percent chance of recovery,” she said. “I was heartbroken. I could not eat or sleep for three days. I could not grasp the concept. With my staff, I treat them like family, and we have such a connection. They’re like my brothers and sisters, and I wouldn’t wish anything like this upon them.” The family decided to opt for brain surgery, and follow-
ing the operation on Aug. 28, Muzaliwa has improved. He opened his eyes, and now can move when given commands. And though his brain is still swollen, he is talking a little bit. “The doctors were astonished,” Niles said. Nurses from other floors in the hospital have even been dropping by to meet the man who has proven to be a fighter. “He has the willpower of a lion,” she said, adding that while his speech and memory are still impaired, and his recovery will be long, everyone is rooting for him. “We’re all just waiting and praying for him,” Niles said. She and her staff are anticipating the day when they can once again see him dance in their kitchen like old times. “Of course he’s going to pull through, because he’s the strongest person I know,” Niles said. The next fundraiser, known as #Donations for David on Facebook and Twitter, is planned for Sept. 20, from 5 p.m. to midnight at the Corner Bar & Grill at 777 Bank St., 344 Richmond Rd. and 1779 Tenth Line Rd.

Lung Run to hit streets of Barrhaven on Sept. 28 Jennifer McIntosh jennifer.mcintosh@metroland.com
News - The lung run will breeze into Barrhaven for the second year. Last year the run managed to raise $12,000 for the Give2Live campaign â&#x20AC;&#x201C; aimed at raising awareness about
organ donations and raising money for families who incur relocation costs and other expenses due to the need for transplants. Double-lung recipient Helene Campbell is the spokesperson for the event, along with local realtors Mary and Travis DeFranco.
Campbell said her family received money from the community when she had to relocate to Toronto to wait for her lung transplant. The total cost was approximately $32,000. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Not everyone has such support from the community,â&#x20AC;? she said. The run, which raises mon-
ey through registration fees, will kick off at Mother Teresa High School. There is a free one-kilometre run for kids, as well as a 2.5-km family run and timed five and 10-km runs. Travis DeFranco said planning started early in 2014 with the organizing committee
â&#x20AC;&#x201C; which includes community sponsors and the DeFranco family. Thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s something for everyone this year, including Zumba, demonstrations from Stronger You Martial Arts and face painting. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Even if you donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t run we want people to come out and
have fun,â&#x20AC;? Campbell said. The race will kick off at 10 a.m. on Sept. 28. Organizers are hoping to beat the $12,000 that was raised last year. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We had a great turnout,â&#x20AC;? Campbell said. For more information on the run, visit the website at alungrun.com.

Police investigate after senior falls prey to ‘granny scam’ Erin McCracken
erin.mccracken@metroland.com
News - An elderly Ottawa man who was driven to a bank to make a cash withdrawal is the victim of fraud, according to Ottawa police, who are looking for a person of interest in connection with the case. The senior was allegedly scammed of an undisclosed amount of money on Aug. 7 after he received a call and was told his grandson was in trouble and needed money. He was then driven the same day to a bank where he withdrew cash from his bank account. A bank employee alerted police to the incident after suspicions were raised for a number of reasons, including the amount of money that was taken out of the account. “They felt something was fishy,” said Ottawa police spokesman Const. Marc Soucy. Police are not disclosing

In images captured by video surveillance cameras at the bank branch, a frail-looking senior, whose identity is obscured, can be seen sitting at a kiosk. Beside him sits a man wearing a dress shirt and slacks, looking around the
room. Police are not alleging the individual accompanying the elderly man is the granny scammer, but he is considered a person of interest in the investigation. Anyone who recognizes the man is urged to contact the Ottawa police fraud section at 613-236-1222, ext. 5781.
Choose Canlok Stone for all your flagstone needs
Flagstone is a popular, affordable and easy-to-maintain pavement option amongst home and business owners, and for those in the OttawaCarlton region, Nepean’s own Canlok Stone canlok.com is the go-to source for all your flagstone needs. With flagstone, maintenance is effortless. To avoid stains, simply sweep it regularly to ensure any loose dirt or plant debris don’t stain your stone by staying on it for too long. Should you need to clean any stains or mold that develop, just
dilute your favourite brand of bleach or muriatic acid with water and spot clean as necessary. If you prefer, you also have cleaning options available that are specifically made with your flagstone pavement in mind. Canlok Stone also takes the guesswork out of finding cleaning supplies for your flagstone pavement as they provide not only cleaners, but also sealers to protect your investment. Picking up a flagstone cleaner is a good idea once your pavement has settled as all flagstone pavement is susceptible to water stains, particularly if the water in your area contains chemicals such as alkaline or if it has added minerals. Even with the utmost care, stains are still likely to
occur in outdoor living spaces, especially if you use them for cooking and dining. With stains considered, make sure to seal all of your flagstone pavement when it is completed. The sealer goes directly into your stone’s pores and helps to prevent any damage caused by spills. Just be sure to avoid sealers with glossy finishes as they can alter your pavement’s appearance— instead use a penetrating acrylic sealer with a matte finish. By using that instead, any water or oil that hits your pavement turns into beads. To further protect your pavement, reapply this sealer yearly to shield it from damage and help maintain its colour. For more on flagstone pavement and care, contact Canlok Stone. Call 613-828-7686, visit them online canlok.com or in person at 950 Moodle Drive in Nepean to learn more.

Lowertown basketball court set to open New court located in Bordeleau Park Michelle Nash
michelle.nash@metroland.com
News - When Michael Kirkpatrick first moved to Lowertown, all he wanted for him and his friends was a place to play basketball. That desire to get some extracurricular exercise is the reason Kirkpatrick started to get involved in his community. It began with a petition he said in 2007, which he took door-to-door seeking support for a court from neighbours, receiving 200 signatures. “Sports bring people together,” Kirkpatrick said. “No matter what age or background, the passion for health and sports will unite all that come to shoot hoops. Also sports is a great outlet for youth. To build a strong community we need to start with our youth. If youth can pour
Michelle Nash/Metroland
A new basketball court at the far left corner of Bordeleau Park, between King Edward Avenue and the Rideau River will open for Lowertown residents on Sept. 19. their energy into positive endeavours such as sports only good things will follow.” The petition and desire to bring a basketball court to the community led the young
man to joining the Lowertown Community Association, where he began working on projects beyond his dream to bring a basketball court to the neighbourhood.
Until recently, the idea to have a court in the area seemed like it might never happen, but the city project to turn a four-way stop at Union Street and the northern leg of
King Edward Avenue into a roundabout to accommodate a turnaround for STO buses created the opportunity to build the basketball court. “It was a combination of projects,” said Rideau-Vanier Coun. Mathieu Fleury. According to Fleury, the construction staging was planned to occupy the far left corner of Bordeleau Park, near four-way stop at Union. “They needed a working area and we wanted to see if we could leverage that and use the resources smartly,” Fleury said. The site, accessible by taking an off-ramp from King Edward Avenue towards Union Street, was perfect for the basketball court, as it is not located near any homes, so complaints of noise would not be an issue. At a total cost of $150,000, the court and an adjacent parking lot featuring five parking spots are near completion, with plans to open on Sept. 19. “I first met Michael when
he came knocking at my door with a petition to get a basketball court for the neighbourhood,” said Elizabeth Bernstein, Lowertown Community Association’s president. “He’s been persistent and it has paid off.” Fleury credits Kirkpatrick with making the court a reality. “This really demonstrates what can happen when a community member is engaged and how it can really get things accomplished.” There will also be bicycle parking available at the location. Kirkpatrick said he is overjoyed at the prospect of soon having a place to play. “This will be Ottawa’s best outdoor basketball court,” said Kirkpatrick, who is also involved in organizing the annual Ottawa Charity Ping Pong tournament. “The court is perched upon a hill, has a great view of the river, Bordeleau Park, and the skyline of the market. The view is picturesque. And not only will Lowertown youth and sports enthusiasts use the court but it will be a destination for basketball players from all around Ottawa.”

News - The owner of a derelict former convent in Overbrook has applied to demolish a home on the site. The demolition will allow the owner of 127 Presland Rd., Groupe Lépine, to move forward with building a 298-unit residential building the city’s planning committee originally approved in 2011. The building, for which the city has approved a site plan, ranges in height up to 15 storeys. The house that’s set to be demolished was already partially torn down without city

approval in December of 2012. The developer wasn’t fined, however, because the city had mistakenly included its address as part of the demolition permit for the neighbouring institutional building. The partially demolished home later caught fire in June of this year. Documents submitted to the city with the demolition application indicate the home is in poor structural condition and is not salvageable. It’s also standing in the way of a road modification needed to change access to the site, so vehicle would enter and exit from the Vanier Parkway, not Presland. Comments on the demolition request can be submitted to the city by Oct. 6. City staff will make a decision on whether to allow the demolition by Nov. 9. The documents also state the developer would also like

to start construction on roadway modifications for a new signalized intersection at Vanier Parkway and Presland Road. The institutional building formerly occupied by Les Soeurs Franciscaines Missionaires de Marie de l’Ontario was demolished on 2012. Groupe Lépine faced fines for illegally cutting trees on the site in 2012. Most of the trees were planned to be removed anyways to make way for a 15-storey apartment complex at the corner of the Vanier Parkway, but Groupe Lépine had not applied for or received the required permits. The company pleaded guilty to one count of injuring or causing the destruction of a tree without a permit and was fined a total of $625, according to Lee Ann Snedden, the city’s manager of policy development and urban design.

Midway ticket system changing at Metcalfe Fair Pro wrestling among new attractions Emma Jackson emma.jackson@metroland.com
News - Ride bracelets are becoming a thing of the past for fairgoers, with the costsaving bracelets available only on Friday, Oct. 3, at this year’s Metcalfe Fair. Midway operator Robertson Amusements has changed the way it charges for rides at the Metcalfe Fair, said fair spokeswoman Cheryl Cooper. Instead of daily bracelet deals, fairgoers can buy a ride-all-day bracelet for Friday, but must buy pre-sale tickets if they want a deal throughout the rest of the
weekend. “Traditionally you could buy ride bracelets for whatever day you wanted, and that was a significant savings,” Cooper said. “But as a board we weren’t given that option this year.” Robertson Amusements manager Chris Patrie sees it differently. He said the company has fielded many complaints about half-day bracelets, which weren’t economical when they were only good for four hours. “People weren’t getting their money’s worth,” Patrie said. “People are very pleased with this (one-day) special.” He said the midway operator has been experimenting with a version of this system for the better part of a decade, but it’s only made its way to the Metcalfe Fair now.
“It’s taken us a while to get it perfected to find out what’s the best day for the special,” he said. Friday’s ride-all-day bracelet is $25 and allows patrons to ride between 1 and 11 p.m. Thursday night is still toonie night, costing fairgoers $2 per ride, and pre-sale tickets are on sale now at a cost of $40 for 35 tickets. But full-price tickets, purchased on the day of the visit, can run patrons as much as $5 a ride. “It’s frustrating for everybody, including fair directors who have kids,” Cooper said. Despite this disconnect over prices, Cooper said she still believes Robertson is the best midway operator – and this change is just a sign of the times.
“They still are one of the best midways out there, with an excellent safety record. They’re supposed to be bringing extra rides this year, too,” Cooper said. Patrie said they’ll pack as many rides as they can into the space available – and they’ll be sure to bring rides never before seen at the Metcalfe Fair. Pre-sale tickets, dance show tickets and weekend passes for the 158th Metcalfe Fair running Thursday, Oct. 2 to Sunday, Oct. 5 are available now at the Metcalfe Fair office at the Metcalfe Farmers’ Market on Saturday mornings, Metcalfe Variety on Victoria Street and Cooper Physiotherapy in Osgoode. And as of Sept. 22, the tickets will also be available at the Scotiabank branch in
Findlay Creek. Cooper said the branch will match all sales in the form of a donation to the not-for-profit fair. Crusher Kline makes fair debut New this year, the Metcalfe Fair is welcoming Osgoodeborn professional wrestler Wayne “Crusher Kline” Cryderman to the ring for an evening of family entertainment. On Friday night, families can enjoy three professional wrestling matches inside the OLG Entertainment tent, compliments of Big Time Pro Wrestling. “We’re excited to have him and his group of wrestlers at the fair,” Cooper said. “One of our younger directors is in charge of entertainment, and she feels it’s important to bring new events. We all like the traditional events but it’s
important to change things up and feature new people. We’re hoping to draw a different milieu of people.” That’s been a major part of the Metcalfe Fair’s modern approach: to add new events while maintaining the traditional agricultural focus. “We’ve tried to change with the times,” Cooper said. “Our main emphasis is we’re an agricultural fair, and our main focus is celebrating agriculture in our community ... but we’re also bringing in the south-end people, and letting them know that with the change in the urban fairs like the SuperEx we’re still here and we want to make Metcalfe Fair your fair, your tradition. We think we offer enough for everyone.” Along with the traditional cattle, sheep and horse shows, the agricultural displays and exhibits, in recent years the fair has added a classic car and hot rod show, a fashion show and a baby show.

Students of the game Working for academic balance in sports-focused schools Adam Kveton adam.kveton@metroland.com
ROUTES AVAILABLE!
News - As students get back into the swing of school, some are choosing to bring more sports into their academic lives. Of the dozens of public and Catholic schools throughout the city, some offer programs allowing students to focus on a particular sport, not to mention several private sports academies that offer specialized sports training along with the regular slate of academic classes. But, in going above and beyond with young athletes, these programs do not put academics on the back burner, said directors of both Peak Academy in Kanata and Louis Riel secondary schoolâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s sport study program in Blackburn Hamlet. â&#x20AC;&#x153;In terms of academics, there is no cutting back. Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a misconception,â&#x20AC;? said JoĂŠ
Fournier, director for Louis Rielâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s sport study program. Rather than having students focus on their sport above all else, these programs expect a strong work ethic in the classroom and on the field for the privilege of doing what they love, they said. That is exactly what is being delivered said students from both Peak Academy and Louis Riel, who said their academics are just as important to them as their sport, and can even make them better athletes. GOING PRIVATE
Peak Academy is a private, sports-skills development school located in the Bell Sensplex near Terry Fox and Palladium drives. The academy began with a single class of a handful of Grade 5 students in 2010, and now has 50 to 60 students from grades 5 to 10. The school ex-
pects to offer grades 5 to 12 in the next two years. The academy allows students to specialize in a particular sport, putting aside 100 hours or more of yearly skills training per year for every student, with strength conditioning on top of that. While the school tends to have a strong contingent of hockey players, the academy can help students train for any sport, said the academyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s director, Ken Brunet. Ryan Horvath began going to the school in Grade 7 to advance his hockey skills and is now a member of Peak Academyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Grade 10 class. He said that while balancing athletics and academics can be a challenge, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s one he takes on with gusto. â&#x20AC;&#x153;If I go out and get a 90 on a test, I have the same sense of pride as if I go out and get a hat trick in a game,â&#x20AC;? he said.

Dedication important for all student athletes Continued from page 54
SUBMITTED
A Peak Academy student undergoes physiological testing as part of the athletic side of classes at the school, located in the Bell Sensplex.
“If we lose in a game seven in the play-offs, I would feel the same was as if I were to get like a 60 on a test, which doesn’t really happen, but if it did, it would be the same feeling.” Brunet said one of the advantages the academy has is getting to athletes at a young age. Every student participates in strength training, said Brunet, but the program is tailored to their age and individual needs. This is important for developing specific physical abilities before the body is no longer able to develop them, he said. “For example, if somebody does not develop their speed between the ages of six and nine, they will never have speed,” he said. “They will have passed their window of trainability.” The program is gruelling, and while instructors don’t expect students to all become elite athletes, requirements to get into the school are strong
personal motivation and commitment to athletic development, as well as school marks in the A and B range. While Brunet said the academy goes above and beyond with its sports training, the academic side of things is not lost. “We are a ministry of education accredited school,” he said. “The curriculum for the school (is similar) to any other Ontario public school. The only difference is that we have smaller class sizes.” Horvath said the school places emphasis on academics, and that working hard in class is just part of the deal. “You have to have a dedication to academics to make it all work out,” he said. Students spend a minimum of four hours a day on academic school work, and homework is not given to students in grades 5 to 8 if they finish their work during school hours.

and field, and hockey, said Fournier. The school can also offer credits for club-athletes for sports not offered in the school, he said. The sport etude program requires that students maintain a 70 per cent average and pass a tryout to get in. Kaitlyn Ball, a Grade 11 student in the soccer sports study program, said the combination of academic study and athletics has made her more than just an athlete, but a student of the game. The program helps athletes to apply a study mentality to their sport and develop mentally, she said. While Peak Academy fits both the athletics and academics into a regular school day, the sport study program at Louis Riel has junior-high students give up gym classes for their sports specialization, while senior high students sacrifice an elective. But the program still demands academic excellence, said Ball. “It’s a privilege to be here,” she said. “It’s something that you need to earn to be able to be here.”

Tuition for the school ranges between $15,500 and $16,000. Louis Riel secondary school has been offering a sports study program since 2005.

News - Every step counted, just as every dollar raised will make a difference. Fifty volunteers and 30 participants with the Carefor Health & Community Services team, who wore their â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;dare to careâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; T-shirts, raised more than $24,000 through The Canadian multi-sport day on Aug. 30 at Mooneyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Bay Park. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Thanks to the support of Careforâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s sponsors, runners, and walkers, a financial barrier to accessing highquality respite care was removed,â&#x20AC;? Carefor fundraising specialist Beth Monaco said in a statement. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The money raised will help seniors living with Alzheimerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s or a related dementia access Careforâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s adult day programs and Guest House or for any senior to access a mental-health support group called the Letâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Get
Together Club.â&#x20AC;? Carefor has been an official charity of the event, organized by Somersault, for the past five years. The team generated more much-needed funds than ever before during their participation in the annual walk and run. Proceeds will help subsidize seniorsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; programming. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The point of doing this fundraising event is to make more people aware of these great programs and more importantly to show how much we need these programs,â&#x20AC;? Debbie Flavell of Create and Renovate, one of 15 businesses that sponsored the Carefor team, said in a statement. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Personally, I will never forget what Carefor has done for my father in the past and I praise the work they do to help the senior community.â&#x20AC;?

Orléans football players travel to Nova Scotia Cumberland Panthers take on east coast brier.dodge@metroland.com
Sports - Football season is in full swing, but several local youth players got an early start to this year earlier this summer. The Cumberland Panthers Football Club’s mosquito level team, made up of players ages 10 to 12, had a pre-season trip to Nova Scotia to play against east coast teams. The team also invited several players from the Orléans Bengals and Gloucester Raiders football sqauds. Players and their families travelled to the east coast at the start of
July for the experience. They did fundraisers, bottle drives, and received sponsor donations to help fund the trip. “It was a different experience to get out and play some teams in eastern Canada,” said Cumberland coach Jeff Koradi. “The kids play everyone in Ottawa and Orléans typically. Some of the kids have good success playing football, and want to see what it’s like playing somewhere else.” Koradi said the team had contact with a similar organization which agreed to host the club. The players took a bus to Halifax, and stayed in

importance of identifying pets with a microchip, said Sarah Oswald, manager: admissions and rehoming. “A microchip is an animal’s way of telling us who they are and where they live,” Oswald said. “It’s the best safety step that you can take to help your animal get home to you if they’re ever lost.” To find out about upcoming microchip clinics, please visit http:// ottawahumane.ca/yourpets/microchip.cfm.

Does your cat or dog have a microchip? Tiny and virtually painless to implant, this life-long form of identification may mean the difference between never seeing your lost pet again and having her returned safely to you. From April 1 to Aug. 31, 24 lost cats and 55 lost dogs brought to the Ottawa Humane Society were returned to their human companions because they had a microchip. When you consider the total number of strays brought to the OHS during that same time period — 964 cats and 498 dogs — it’s clear that there is still work to be done when it comes to education on the
large storm hit and knocked out the power in a dome they were supposed to play in. The Cumberland Panthers regular season is now underway. The club
