Westfest coming to Laroche Park Steph Willems

steph.willems@metroland.com

After searching for a new home, Westfest has finally found a place to set up shop. On Oct. 8, producer Elaina Martin announced the popular west-end celebration of music, culture and the arts would move to Laroche Park in Mechasnicsville for 2016. In early September, organizers and residents alike were shocked to hear that the Westboro Village Business Improvement Area had withdrawn a funding grant to the festival, leaving the future of the event in jeopardy. The size of the grant was behind that decision, with the BIA opting to pursue other goals with its funds. See SPACE, page 3

Park at Fallowfield Station opens Staff

The Memorial Park at Fallowfield Station is open to the public. The park, located in a quiet corner of the Fallowfield park-and-ride, is dedicated to the memory of the six individuals who lost their lives in the bus-train collision on Sept. 18, 2013,

and honours those whose lives were forever changed. The design chosen for the Memorial Park is called a bosquet. Rows of identical trees define order and symmetry around a central focus, and it is surrounded by distinct areas for quiet reflection. The park features six unique sec-

tions that reflect the life of each individual who lost their life that day. At the centre of the park, a shaded area features an inscribed monolith that honours the victims, the other passengers on the bus, the residents who witnessed the event, and the first-responders who provided assistance on scene.

Laroche Park in Mechanicsville was picked by Westfest organizers for its space, accessibility, and proximity to downtown. “We’ve jumped through a lot of hoops and had green lights from everyone on this,” she said, adding that the Mechanicsville Community Association, which runs the space, has “accepted us with open arms.”

The park setting of next year’s Westfest has Martin envisioning families bringing lawn chairs and their dogs to the event. She’s certain the festival – which will return to its traditional three-day length in

10 Pick-Up Locations 2 Departure Times

2016 – will give the Mechanicsville community a boost of “economic and cultural stimulation,” as well as recognition. Musical acts will be announced closer to the event date.

R0013228099

Though they felt compelled to stay in the area where residents and businesses had supported them for years, Martin said that Westfest would move to any space willing to host it. Now, the event can remain true to its “west” billing. “We’re very excited,” she said of the coming move. “There were many green spaces in Kitchissippi Ward that we were scouting, and there was a strong community desire to keep it in the community.” Martin said the location is ideal for space and accessibility, being located close to both downtown and west-end neighbourhoods and easily reachable by bike path and transit. In the 12 years since Westfest launched, Martin and the festival have formed a healthy working relationship with the city – one that helped streamline and expedite the approvals process for next year’s festival, scheduled for June 10 to 12, 2016.

Student voters can choose to vote in their “home” riding – where they live when they’re not at school – or the riding of their school residence. If voting at school, you’ll need to bring an official document with your local address on it, as well as photo ID, if it isn’t updated with your school address. Utility bills, letters of admission or a lease agreement will all work. If you live on campus in a residence, you might need an administrator to fill out a form attesting to your address – find the form at elections.ca. ID OPTIONS

You can show your driver’s licence or any other government card with your photo, name and current address . If your photo ID doesn’t have your current address, check out elections.ca for a complete list of alternative documents that can help you identify yourself. Here are some of the more common documents you can bring to the polling station (you will need two): • health card, Canadian passport, citizenship card/certificate or birth certificate • utility bill, bank statement or personal cheque • government cheque or income tax assessment • lease or mortgage contract • credit or debit card • employee or student card • Indian status or band membership card • letter of confirmation of residence or admission form from a student residence, seniors’ residence or long-term care facility.

The niqab election A BRYNNA few weeks ago, I couldn’t have imagined that the niqab would be a central election issue. For one, there aren’t many women in Canada who don the garment. Secondly, there are only two women in the country that have ever attempted to wear a niqab in a citizenship ceremony, so surely it couldn’t be the primary issue on which people would vote. But propaganda, successfully implemented, has made it so. As it has done in the past, the Conservative Party of Canada has used what authors Silverblatt, Bruns and Jensen call “Karl Rove’s Playbook.” If you’re unfamiliar with Rove, he’s the guy who helped get George W. Bush elected, first as the governor of Texas in 1994, and subsequently as U.S. president in 2000 and 2004. Rove developed a number of propaganda tactics designed to garner control of elections and, ultimately, to win them: set the tone of the campaign; create straw issues, ideally ones that stir up emotion in otherwise rational people, (the best is fear); always accuse your opponents of things you’re

You see, scrambling to “correct” their position on

refugees wasn’t enough. Rovian tactics told them they needed to “set the tone of the election.” They needed to distract a Canadian public that was worrying about real issues like plummeting oil prices, a low Canadian dollar, and the possibility of a recession. Rove was a big supporter of wedge issues – things that stir up emotions and get people engaged, albeit for potentially the wrong reasons – that secure the party base. Enter the niqab. The niqab is the perfect Rovian play for the Conservatives. Hardly anybody likes the niqab – not really. And judging by the reaction of most Canadians who have been polled, they’d rather see it banned than have it as part of the Canadian wardrobe See PROPAGANDA, page 7

Propaganda an easy tool to wield Continued from page 6

although simultaneously most would rather see the Charter of Rights and Freedoms upheld. The Conservative party, as government, had been attempting to ban the wearing of it at citizenship ceremonies since 2011. The federal court struck it down, saying that the government failed to prove a woman would cause harm to others by donning it. In early October, the federal appeal court struck down the government’s argument again. The niqab could stay. And stay it did. Across the country, all the bigots came out of the woodwork. From the streets of Vancouver, Montreal and Toronto, there emerged stories of Muslim women being attacked – not because they had their faces covered, but because they wore the hijab, a head scarf. People were fearful,

emotional and pitted against each other. It was playing out perfectly. Conservatives accused the other parties of politicizing an apolitical issue in the midst of a campaign – the other parties accused the Conservatives of the same thing. (Rove: Accuse your opponents of something you’re doing; when they turn around and accuse you of doing it, cry foul.) If we weren’t in the midst of an election campaign, perhaps cooler heads would have prevailed. But propaganda rules king in elections. So just as we thought the niqab issue should take a back seat to real issues, the CPC announced a new RCMP tipline that people can use to report “barbaric cultural practices” of their neighbours. A quick check in my hard copy dictionary told me that the origins of “barbaric” are “non-Christian.” A subsequent online verification showed

that barbaric comes from the Greek “barbaros,” meaning “foreign” or “rude.” I gather, with this new tipline, we can snitch on our neighbours for anything from yoga to curry-making. It

Are you better off now than you were four years ago?

sounds like a joke, but it isn’t. It was fuel to the racist flames, and it worked to breathe new life into the Conservative campaign. In the same way Green supporters love to slam pipelines,

Liberals love themselves and the NDP loves unions, Conservatives love to see themselves as the defenders of morality. Harper, and one of his highest profile ministers, Chris Alexander, knew exactly how to keep Conservative supporters’ attention shifted away from the real issues and onto the issue they created. Propaganda is a powerful tool, more so in a world where we all go online to confirm our bias about everything from kale to childrearing. But this election isn’t really about the niqab, not really. Whatever party you support, this issue shouldn’t have any bearing on your vote. As you get ready to vote this week, it’s worth asking a single question: Are you better off now than you were four years ago? If you are, then cast a vote for your incumbent or a candidate of the existing government. If not, it may be time for some reflection.

Government advertising must deliver substance

ach week more than 1,000 English and French community newspapers just like the one you are reading today go about the business of telling stories that matter to the communities they serve. We are at your rinks and schools. We are at your council meeting. We are at the scene when tragedy strikes. We celebrate your milestones. Our job is to cover your neighbourhood, warts and all. And we are good at it. We are in towns big and small. Independent research shows that more than 70 per cent of Canadians read their community paper. Despite our collective strength, ours is a medium easy to ignore. Because we focus on Canada one community at a time, we lack the sex appeal of other media. We’ve seen our share of federal govern-

ment advertising gradually erode over the years. Our regional and national associations have met with government MPs, opposition MPs, cabinet ministers and senior bureaucrats to promote our case. We are always met with courtesy and a promise that things will get better. Well things are not getting better. So despite it being contradictory to everything we believe in journalistically, the time has come to tell you. In short, the federal government is all but ignoring your community newspaper. We believe this means the federal government is ignoring you and your community’s right to be informed about programs and services offered by the Government of Canada. In the last fiscal year, the federal government spent $75 million on

Time to take a stroll

ne of the refreshing things about this election is that no one is talking about declining the ballot. That’s nice. Maybe people will stop complaining about voting this time, and just vote. Last election there was a spate of righteous indignation about the leaders, the parties, the candidates, the process, and out of it arose the righteous people’s hope that they might, rather than just staying home quietly, actually go to the voting station and, as a protest, publicly decline their ballot. This would make them feel better, not to mention holding up the line a bit. It turned about that there was no provision for this in federal law. A voter could spoil his ballot, by

In Ontario’s election there was and 31,000 people took advantage of it, thereby having no effect whatsoever on the results. Perhaps because of that, there doesn’t seem too much clamour for the declined ballot this time. Maybe people are more engaged in the issues now. Maybe they feel the

advertising. More than $26 million of that went to TV ads, while another $15.5 million went to Internet advertising – an industry dominated by American-based companies like Google and Facebook. Creating ads and paying ad agencies ate away another $10 million. Radio advertising cost just under $7 million. By comparison, community newspapers saw a paltry $867,000 in total advertising from Ottawa – or an average of about $25 per week per newspaper. The way in which your government uses your money to communicate with you is very telling. TV and Internet ads work to build brand, not to inform. Your community newspaper generates debate and serves as a forum for discussion – and is also one of the few places where local MPs actually receive editorial cover-

age outside election season. That’s why those MPs submit letters to the editor, columns or buy their own local advertising to share their work with the community. They know the power of your local community paper. The federal government knows it, too. The Harper government spent $1.25 million with a company called NewsCanada to create its own stories –stories it offers for free to print and broadcast outlets. The vast majority of these government-approved stories are never published. But you and I paid for them. It is disconcerting that the federal government spent 50 per cent more creating its own news than the total advertising buy in Canadian newspapers. The federal government strategy appears to be that it’s more important to make pretty ads than to put

relevant information about programs and services in front of readers of community newspapers. They’re telling you they’d rather give your tax dollars to Facebook and Google than Canadian-based companies that invest in local journalism. If the federal government continues to ignore our community newspapers, some communities may lose them. When that happens a vital voice is silenced. If you believe, as we do, that government should invest in meaningful communication with citizens through community newspapers, we ask you to help us. Contact your local candidate. We’d love to hear from you, too. Give us a call at 613-221-6261 or write a letter to the editor and email theresa.fritz@metroland.com. We’ll continue to make sure your voice is heard.

choices are better. Or maybe they realize that it isn’t all that satisfying to make a grandstand play in a church basement in front of 23 people who don’t even notice. And so we proceed, many of us quite happily. We like the ritual stroll to the neighbourhood church hall, getting the ballot (although all identification requirements makes us feel vaguely not trusted), marking the ballot, double-checking it to make sure we didn’t accidentally vote for the wrong person or play tic-tac-toe, asking the scrutineers how the turnout is, and then strolling back. It feels good, as if we have done something worthwhile, like going to church, which we sort of have. People who don’t vote miss out on this. It’s hard to know why, because voting is the farthest thing from difficult. The polling place is invariably close by, the hours make it easy to vote after work, and it is

possible, in many cases, to get time off to vote, if necessary. So there is nothing holding people back. Except for their own inertia and whatever feelings of alienation they may have. The local candidates may not appeal to some, none of the leaders may seem just right, none of the party platforms are perfect. But, hey: it’s not a perfect world. There must be something or someone you like better than the others. Or, to put it negatively, there must be someone you want to vote against. That’s a legitimate choice too, voting against. The important thing is to choose. There have been many strolls to the same church hall over the years and some changes too. The big difference is that there are people from all over the world at the polling place now, Canadians all, which is something that Canadians rightly celebrate. When asked what

differentiates Canada from other countries, Canadians might mention medicare, hockey and better beer, but they also mention how easy has been the transition from bicultural to multicultural society. As we know, not everyone is as happy with that as they should be, but voting day is a good time think about it.

Hospital stay was a blast

Foods that don’t heal To the editor,

I take umbrage at Irma Cohen’s letter of Oct. 1, regarding food choices at the Queensway Carleton Hospital. I recently had knee surgery there and my total experience was most wonderful. Each staff member I encountered from front desk to porters and everyone in between were very respectful. They actually appeared like they were going to make it through their shifts. Instead of focusing on supposedly suspect food, Irma should be revelling in the fact that we have in our immediate area a top rate facility the likes of QCH. I licked my plates clean Irma, and my bowels were most joyous and thankful in their response!

It was with great interest I read Irma Cohen’s letter about the dreadful nature of the food given to patients in hospitals. We have all heard people complain mightily about the fare they are offered when they are at their most vulnerable. However, it was with even greater interest that I read about the fiduciary responsibility of hospital trustees to provide an environment that contributes to patients’ well being. If the food offered to patients doesn’t contribute to their recovery, then one wonders if this responsibility is being taken too lightly. I have been in hospital myself, so have direct experience with the meals. As well, when visiting friends, I’ve been struck by the almost inedible nature of much of the food. Even people on low salt diets, for example, are given salty food. When looking at the suggestions of dieticians for a healthy diet using fresh leafy greens, whole grain pasta and bread, and a variety of fruits and vegetables, one wonders why hospitals don’t offer these foods that have proven health benefits. As for foods that harm rather than heal, perhaps removing foods full of sugar, chemicals, and colouring such as gelatin and canned drinks/juice would be a good start.

High demand for more services, taxes at budget talk Steph Willems

steph.willems@metroland.com

The group of residents who turned out to provide feedback at an Oct. 8 pre-budget consultation illustrated the tough job city councilors have ahead of them. Held at the City Centre complex, the public discussion was organized by the offices of Somerset Coun. Catherine McKenney, Kitchissippi Coun. Jeff Leiper, and moderated by Manjit Basi of the civic engagement advocacy group Citizens Academy. The City of Ottawa is in a tight spot as it enters the budget season. In creating the financial document for the coming fiscal year, it also needs to eliminate a $41-million deficit from the existing year, as well as an $11.5-million shortfall at OC Transpo. Mayor Jim Watson, who campaigned on a promise of sub-two per cent tax increases, stated previously that the shortfalls can be erased by finding savings within existing areas of operations. However, the coun-

cillors at the forum and most of the residents in attendance felt that the public could chip in more to cover the increased expenditures. “Budgets are hard – there are limited resources available to us, and how we allocate those resources often pits different public interests against each other,” Leiper said at the opening of the meeting. “I think we should be paying a little more in taxes. The knock against not sticking to a, say, two per cent tax increase is that it leads to uncertainty. I would argue the opposite. I think this year’s budget is extremely important because it raises – if we stick to the current proposed approach – a number of uncertainties.” McKenney said the previous year’s budget “didn’t work,” given the existing deficit, and spoke of the rewards and risks of finding efficiencies. “Efficiencies can be new technologies, new ways of doing things, or they can be cuts to services,” she said of the city’s direction. “I know that I’m not willing to budget backwards

any more. We have to budget forward and look at what we need ... (tax revenue) is not a bottomless pit, and we have people in the community on fixed incomes who can’t afford continually raising taxes, but they also can’t afford continually raising user fees.” McKenney said a one per cent property tax increase would bring in $14 million annually, while costing the average home owner 69 cents a week. Already, OC Transpo has decided to increase a property’s transit levy by 2.5 per cent next year. Water and sewer rates, which like transit, don’t factor into the property tax rate, have risen by 20 per cent over the past three years, with a coming above-inflationary increase planned. The format of the meeting allowed the group of participants to make the hard decisions – to break into groups representing key areas of expenditure and decide what they would do to raise the necessary funds – while showing what services and entities they feel needed the most attention.

PUBLIC CONSULTATION Policy Update for Pupil Accommodation Review Process The Ottawa-Carleton District School Board currently undertakes school accommodation reviews in accordance with Policy P118.PLG, School Accommodation Studies. The Ministry of Education has recently released an updated Pupil Accommodation Review Guideline (March 2015) and requires school boards to amend their policy documents to incorporate the requirements of the new guideline. These changes came about as a result of comments provided to the Ministry of Education from parents, schools/communities and school boards. In an effort to develop a more streamlined and efficient accommodation review process, policy amendments include minimum standards required to ensure that valuable school and community input is heard when addressing the need for the movement of students, relocation of programming and/or the consolidation of facilities. Details about this consultation can be found on the OCDSB website at: http://goo.gl/9fJpqP Comments may be submitted to: commentsPARpolicyupdate@ocdsb.ca The consultation will be web-based and will take place until October 28, 2015. We look forward to your consideration of the updated material and feedback. R0023503354-1015

Ottawa West News - Thursday, October 15, 2015

VULNERABLE RESIDENTS

On the social services front, the group returned with a call to protect the city’s “small and vital groups,” including food cupboards and addiction services, while urging the city to create a transparent investment strategy for the sector. “(These groups) are the most vulnerable to cuts, yet they serve the most vulnerable in our society,” said Alieen Leo. On public transit, Silviu Riley urged the city to rethink OC Transpo’s rate structure in light of stagnant or declining ridership numbers, advocating for a decrease in price to spur ridership and collect more revenue. Linking community passes to the low-income cutoff would ensure that a vulnerable group of people would continue to be able to ride the bus, and not be priced out of transit service. The group examining parks and recreation were concerned about facilities being able to maintain proper levels of staffing and expertise. They advocated for multi-tiered user fees to reflect the financial

means of the user. As well, they called for increased funding to library branches, especially inner city ones, through a combination of community fundraising and property tax increase. SURVEY

Through the use of electronics, participants at the consultation were able to weigh in on questions asked by Citizens Academy, with results tabulated on a bar graph. When asked if they were satisfied with existing city services, 39 per cent of participants disagreed, with 18 per cent strongly disagreeing. Another 21 per cent were neutral, with the rest agreeing to some extent. When asked about public works spending, 57 per cent of the participants responded by saying there should be increased spending for increased services, with 43 per cent happy with maintaining existing spending levels. A full 82 per cent of participants wanted to see increased spending on social services, but they were mixed on transit

funding – 48 per cent wanted to see more expenditure to increase service levels, while 44 per cent wanted to maintain current spending. On the topic of transit, 88 per cent of responders wanted OC Transpo shortfalls to be made up through the tax base, not through hiked fares. Increased spending on parks, recreation and culture was also a popular idea, though freezing services (while cutting select others) was overwhelmingly unpopular. A full 48 per cent said a three per cent hike was acceptable for the coming budget, while 38 per cent favoured a four per cent increase. While the participants clearly favoured increased spending and taxation, the dangers of a non-representative sample were discussed in reaction to the votes. For many, rising home values lead to a greater household expenditure on property tax, even without a property tax increase levelled by the city. This puts extra pressure on those living on fixed incomes who own their own homes, especially seniors. User fees and fares, if increased, would impact low-income individuals the most.

Campaign for Mental Health nears $25 million goal Physicians at the Royal donate $1 million towards cause Steph Willems

steph.willems@metroland.com

The Royal is now within striking distance of a longstanding fundraising goal, thanks to the generosity of its physicians. On Oct. 5, a group of 76 physicians – calling themselves the Associates in Psychiatry – presented a gift of $1 million towards the mental health centre’s Campaign for Mental Health. The donation places the Royal within $800,000 of their $25 million goal. “That’s 100 per cent physician engagement for us,” said Nancy Stanton, acting president and CEO of the Royal Ottawa Foundation for Mental Health. “In 2004, they gave us $1 million for the capital cam-

paign in support of our new facility. They’re amazing – as we’ve said before, they’ve contributed continuously for ongoing research, not just during campaigns.” The campaign kicked off in the fall of 2010 with the intention of improving all functions of the facility, but with a special emphasis on desperatelyneeded mental health research. “The biggest pillars of the $25 million are research, care, advocacy and education,” explained Stanton. “Research makes up $18 million of the goal. With this money, we’ll open a brain imaging centre with a PET MRI machine – hopefully, it will be open in 2016.” That machine – a specialized, expensive and exceedingly rare device – allows researchers to view exactly what

is occurring inside a brain in real time. This could allow scientists to develop better treatments and therapies, while gaining a better knowledge of the complex functions of the human brain. “It’s like performing a biopsy on a living brain,” Stanton said of the device. “We want to get to the point to where cancer and heart disease are today – faster diagnosis, better prognosis – it’s our turn. We need an investment in research, and we need research before anything else.” Once the campaign’s goal is reached, Stanton said that staff and physicians will ensure the Royal doesn’t lose the momentum it built up over the course of the past five years. “We’ll continue on that path,” she said.

Emerson and Everett were in charge of bringing in the heavy bushel baskets of cabbage heads.  Earl took the heads out, one at a time, and handed them to Audrey and me sitting at one end of the table.  Our job was to peel off the outer leaves, and toss them into one of the empty baskets (they would be fed to the pigs).  Mother cored the heads and handed them, one after another to Father at the shredder. One head at a time was placed in the board with a groove and blade in it, and Father shoved the cab-

bage back and forth over the blade, filling the cavity underneath.  Once it was full, Father dumped the shredded cabbage into the big barrel beside him. Every so often, the entire operation would stop, and Mother would take the wood plunger we used to whip cream into butter, and pound down the cabbage in the barrel, take a cup of coarse salt from the bag and toss it over the shredded cabbage. I loved the smell of the cabbage, which I was sure started to ferment as soon as it hit the barrel, but of course, it didn’t.  It would have to sit for weeks before we could truly call it sauerkraut! By the time the last bit of cabbage had been shredded and pounded down into the barrel, it was ready for Father to put the round disc of well scrubbed wood on top of it all.  A large stone, so big only Father and Everett

or Emerson could lift it, had been sitting in the dish pan filled with clean water from the pump.  It too, had been scrubbed clean, and I loved to hear Father tell how it was the very same stone used by his Father when he was a young boy.  The very same stone used to press down the

Mother cored the heads and handed them, one after another to Father at the shredder shredded cabbage years and years ago.   I would look at the stone, and marvel at the mystery of it all.   It always amazed me how we seemed to have the exact amount of cabbage to fill the barrel.  It would take the strength of Father and the three boys to carefully roll the

filled barrel out to the summer kitchen, where it would again be covered with a clean sheet and then a quilt.   Days and sometimes weeks would pass before we could use the sauerkraut.  And often it would be frozen solid in the barrel, and had to be chipped with a special tool made just for that purpose. As Fall stretched into winter, out in the summer kitchen was a barrel that would augment our meals, and we would enjoy the fruits of a true family evening...and savour the wonderful German dishes Father so often made.  Just like his Father did a generation before him.

Turkey hash a great brunch This hash is a great brunch idea. The eggs also make it a pleasing lastminute dinner. Serve hash with hot sauce if you like lots of heat. PreparationTime: 15 minutes Cooking Time: 1-1/2 hours Serves: six to eight Ingredients

· 1 tbsp (15 mL) extra-virgin olive oil · 1/4 cup (50 mL) minced fresh parsley · 1 clove garlic, minced · 1 tsp (5 mL) chili powder · Salt and pepper · 1 whole turkey breast (about 5 lb/2 kg), bone in, skin on and trimmed of fat Hash: · 5 red potatoes, cubed, about 1 lb (16 oz) or 2 cups (500 mL) leftover potatoes · 1/4 cup (50 mL) butter · 1 onion, chopped · 2 cloves garlic, minced · 1 hot pepper, seeded and minced

· 1 each sweet red and yellow pepper, chopped · 10 Ontario Eggs · 1/4 cup (50 mL) milk or whipping cream · Salt and pepper · 16 corn tostadas · 1-1/2 cups (375 mL) shredded cheddar cheese · Minced fresh parsley Preparation instructions

In bowl, mix together oil, parsley, garlic, chili powder, and salt and pepper to taste. Pat turkey dry with paper towel; rub mixture under skin and on both sides of breast to evenly distribute. Place skin side up, on greased rack in large roasting pan. Roast turkey in 425º F (220ºC) oven for 30 minutes. Reduce oven temperature to 350ºF (180ºC); cook until thickest part of breast registers 160ºF (70ºC) on instant read thermometer, about 1 hour. Transfer to cutting board and let rest for 20 minutes. Remove skin and meat from bone and slice. Set aside.

(Make-ahead: Cover and refrigerate for up to 2 days.) Hash: Meanwhile, in saucepan, cover potatoes with enough water to cover by 1-inch (2.5 cm); bring to boil. Salt water and reduce heat to medium; simmer until potatoes are tender, about 12 minutes. Drain and let cool. In large skillet, heat half of the butter over medium-high heat. Add onion, garlic and hot pepper; cook, about 3 minutes. Add red and yellow peppers; cook until vegetables are tender and slightly golden, about 4 minutes. Add potatoes; cook until warmed through, about 4 minutes. Meanwhile, in large bowl, whisk together eggs, milk, and salt and pepper to taste. In large nonstick skillet, melt remaining butter over medium heat. Add egg mixture; cook until no liquid remains, about 4 minutes. For each serving, put 2 tostadas on plate; top each with 1/4 cup (50 mL) chopped turkey, 1/2 cup (125 mL) potato mixture and follow with eggs. Sprinkle with cheese and parsley. Foodland Ontario

Transportation committee approves overnight parking ban Monthly parking fees to increase to $140 during winter months Alex Robinson

R0013452388/0910

alex.robinson@metroland.com

Drivers could find themselves paying $140 per month for on-street parking this winter, if city council approves proposed changes to overnight parking ban rules. The transportation committee approved the changes on Oct. 7 for the overnight parking ban, which comes into effect during winter months any time the forecast calls for

more than seven centimetres of snow from 1 a.m. to 7 a.m. The new policy would include towing cars that have been left on the street during the ban without a parking pass. Fines for drivers who leave their cars on the street will also increase from $65 (earlier in the night) and $85 to $75 (also earlier in the night) and $95. The city decided to explore possible changes after it racked up an $11-million shortfall in

the city’s winter maintenance pot last year. City staff has said the ban has not worked as well as hoped as many cars have remained on the streets during major snowfalls, meaning plows have to return to the same roads two or three times to clear them. Fees for on-street parking passes will also be increased during winter months from $59 monthly to $140. See RESIDENTS, page 23

Residents frustrated by inflexible ban Monthly fees during the summer will be $30. The annual fee of $648 for a parking pass will remain the same. Gloucester-Southgate Coun. Diane Deans, who sits on the transportation committee, said she would have liked to have seen the fee increases phased in over a longer period. “It seems like a very big change in a very short time,” she said at the meeting. “That’s a huge jump they wouldn’t have planned for financially.” Kevin Wylie, general manager of public works, said only 100 people bought winter month passes last year but did not buy passes for the summer as well. A total of 1,400 car owners had parking permits last winter and bylaw officers wrote 12,032 tickets during the parking ban between November 2014 and March 2015, ac-

cording to city staff. The city held three consultations about the overnight parking ban in the spring in Overbrook, Glen Cairn in Kanata and at the Ron Kolbus-Lakeside Centre. Wylie said staff heard from residents that they were frustrated with the ban’s lack of flexibility. To deal with this, one of the proposed changes will give management the ability to call off the ban if a storm is going to last into the morning. “What residents told us is that there is a lack of options and that they feel trapped from the parking ban,” he said at the committee meeting. To give residents more options when a ban is called, the city would also make parking in city-owned parking garages free during bans. Deans blasted staff for not holding any consultations downtown. “That doesn’t make any sense to me,” she said.

Wylie said the consultations were open to the public, advertised on the city website and that residents could also submit their comments online. The new rules would also restrict on-street parking in new suburban subdivisions to only one side of the road so that they can be cleared. If approved by city council, the new rules will come into effect in November.

Smith & Barber are carving out their future David Johnston

In a world where mass production and throw-away commodities are common, two local men are keeping a time honoured tradition alive. Smith & Barber Sculpture Atelier Inc. is an Ottawa company devoted to practising the craft of stone carving. Employing a traditional approach, they create sculptural stone details for projects across North America. It takes both talent and skill to handle the Crandall hammer and chisel to create masterpieces in stone. Sharing a love and devotion to heritage and quality, professional stone carvers John-Philippe Smith and Danny Barber came together in 2012 to establish a European-style atelier devoted to the trade’s past,

present and future. “Our stone works are sympathetic to the architectural style and period of the buildings we work on,” says Barber. “Our core values are founded on a deep respect for the craftsmen who built our heritage. This reverence is manifested in our attention to detail and the high quality of our many works.” Through working and training in France and England, Smith and Barber have refined their skills and acquired a comprehensive understanding of all aspects of the profession. With their team of like-minded and highly-trained craftsmen, their company is able to meet demanding production schedules while maintaining high quality of work. See QUALITY, page 26

For Barber, it’s the next level of his traditional family occupation. “I was born in St. Catharines and I grew up in the cemetery memorial business. It was started by my grandfather, followed by my father and I

worked there from my early teens until I was 32 years old. I found there was a low ceiling artistically and decided that I wanted to learn more about the traditional craft of stone carving. I also wanted to get away from the family business and spread my wings. “After looking at different

options I decided that doing a heritage stone carving/conservation course at Weymouth College in England would be the best move.” Barber and his wife Hali sold their house in 2002 and moved with their daughter to England, where Barber completed a year-long program at

the college learning tradition methods for working stone. “After that we stayed for three more years and I worked for a small company called Centreline Architectural Sculpture,” he said. “I learned a lot from my colleagues there. A highlight was carving five Corinthian capital for Birmingham Town Hall.” In 2006, the family decided it was time to move back to Canada. “I started looking for work and found an opportunity in Ottawa. My first project was the stone replacement for the restoration of the Mappin Wing of Rideau Hall. Since then I have worked on the East and West blocks on Parliament Hill, the Museum of Nature and the Royal Canadian Mint to name a few.” Meanwhile Smith was gaining his own experience. “I completed my training in 2002 at the Heritage Masonry Programming Perth, Ontario. Following this I moved to Toronto to work in stone carving shops where I completed my apprenticeship. “After moving back to Ottawa, I decided to search for work in Europe. I had the for-

tune of securing employment with France’s most renowned sculpting studio, Atelier JeanLoup Bouvier, in Avignon. He said all the studio’s work was on heritage buildings in Paris such as the Palais Royale and the Préfecture de Paris. “With everything that I learned here, I was inspired to return to Canada and start a similar style of atelier, focusing on high quality stone carving and sculpture.” The pair decided to open their own business in March 2012, specializing in traditional tooling and finishes, and fireplace surrounds. “Philippe and I worked together for about five years with a couple different local masonry contractors. During that time we gained a lot of knowledge about the Parliament Buildings and the styles of carving used. We could see the opportunities in the future with the work scheduled for the Parliament Buildings and thought since we are the only carvers actively working in town, we should try to get the work for ourselves.” The result is timeless creations in stone, both on government structures and for private clients. “Having both worked in Europe we could see that there had been a clear loss of knowledge in the produc-

tion and lowered standards of work being produced in North America,” said Smith. “Our goal was and is to provide the highest quality of work and pass on our knowledge to future generations.” He said 90 per cent of their work is in the heritage restoration sector and 10 per cent is residential. “For the past six years in a row, we have been part of the the Canadian Stone Carving Festival,” Smith said. “We bring carvers together to make original pieces over a two-day period. There are no power tools allowed. At the end of the two days we auction off the pieces to the public and the proceeds go to charity.” The pair have supported the Ottawa Innercity Ministries, Unicef and Habitat for Humanity. Smith & Barber attribute their success to their dedication to their craft. “Maintaining high standards in the quality of our work and being fair and honest are fundamental to us,” says Smith. “Danny and I have also taught at the heritage masonry program in Perth (at Algonquin College). We feel that it is important to share our knowledge and experience.” And that’s how the stone carving tradition lives on.

A smashing good time Alex Bellavance, 2, of Orléans chooses a pumpkin to smash at the Cumberland Heritage Village Museum’s annual pumpkin smash on Oct. 4. Kids could select a pumpkin and decorate it, before staff loaded it onto one of two 15-foot trebuchets that then launched the pumpkins over a field at a target.

Museum turns into spooky village for Halloween Brier Dodge brier.dodge@metroland.com

In Cumberland, the scientists of scare are museum staff. Since March, theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve been brainstorming fears, and taking advantage of what one another are afraid of to create a creepy haunted village tour â&#x20AC;&#x201C; not suitable for those under 14. â&#x20AC;&#x153;All of us have different fears, so we use those,â&#x20AC;? said Rachel Perkins, museum administrator at the Cumberland Heritage Village Museum. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It involves a lot of screams. We have a lot of volunteers who want to scare the bejeebers out of you.â&#x20AC;? The museum opened up the Haunted Historic Village on Oct. 9. It will run on Friday and Saturday nights until Oct. 30. The museum changes the experience every year so that itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not a repeat experience. Most of what they

have planned is kept under tight wraps, including room themes, decorations, and characters. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s less blood and gore, and more creepy, though. Last year, visitors went in from the dark into an all white room. Suddenly, the lights would go out and the room would be pitch black. When the lights went back on, theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d be face to face with a man in a gas mask. While that room wonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t be featured in the 2015 haunted village, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s the type of thing those who attend can expect. The whole experience takes about 30 to 40 minutes through the village, which more often hosts family-friendly events or activities geared towards children. Elements are both outdoors, as well as inside the various structures at BRIER DODGE/METROLAND the museum. Zakary Dupuis gets his makeup applied for his character at the Haunted Historic Village at the Cumberland See SCARY, page 31

Heritage Village Museum during a dry run on Oct. 7. Heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s one of about 45 volunteers who are in the cast for the creepy performances.

Scary surprises around every corner Continued from page 30

Part of the reason for the haunted village is to connect a different demographic with the city-run museum, said Perkins. And it has worked. Now people from Toronto and Montreal will even inquire about coming back to experience the fright fest at the museum’s outdoor property. “The reputation has grown so much we’ve had to extend the hours,” Perkins said. The event now opens at 7 p.m. and takes the last group of the night through at 10:30 p.m. Guests travel through the village in groups of four. Tickets are now sold for specific time slots, and many are pre-sold ahead of time. Only 40 are available per night at the door. A lot of the event’s success can be chalked up to the volunteers who take part. A wide range of people show up each year to dress in costume and scare people. Perkins said there are many

high school students who have volunteered one year to get their mandatory community service hours, but end up coming back. Curtis Thibault, 17, is one of those students “It’s got better every year,” he said. “I like scaring people. There are a lot of screams.” It’s his third year taking part in the Haunted Historic Village. He brought along several school friends who still need hours. They helped work on set construction, and will play various parts in the spooky evening dressed in costumes. The many volunteers will be sure to keep visitors on their toes. “If you’ve been out in the rural areas at night, it’s already spooky,” Perkins said. “It’s about messing with people and messing with their fears.” The Cumberland Heritage Village Museum is located at 2940 Old Montreal Rd. Tickets are $10, and can reserved by email, at cumberlandmuseum@ BRIER DODGE/METROLAND ottawa.ca or by phone at 613- A creepy looking mask is just one of the things people might expect to see at the Haunted Historic Village at the 833-3059, ext. 221. Cumberland Heritage Village Museum this year. The event changes every year.

)MAGINE 4HIS &AMILY &RIENDLY %NTERTAINMENT THAT 0ARENTS 7ILL ,OVE Like many new parents ﬁnding themselves knee-deep in children’s music, four New Orleans friends found themselves at the end of their ropes when listening to their kids’ favourite music. Imagining that there could be family friendly music that wouldn’t drive parents crazy, they began gathering after their kids’ bedtimes to write songs about healthy snacks, playing catch and conquering childhood fears of bedtime, all set to music that parents could get behind. Critical acclaim for the Movers includes nods from Entertainment Weekly and The New York Times, which reported the Movers are “prized by many parents for non-condescending lyrics and music that evokes the Beastie Boys or Red Hot Chili Peppers more than Barney or the Wiggles.” Today line-ups at Movers’ shows stretch city blocks, they’ve got an animated series is in the works, and success with Disney Junior has cemented the Movers as a favourite with the juice box set, but it didn’t all come easy for these New Orleans natives.

When the levees broke after Hurricane Katrina, the disaster turned the Movers’ world upside down, and put their Disney dreams on hold. Three of the Movers lost their own homes, their studio was destroyed, but the storm proved to be a turning point for the band. While New Orleans doesn’t feature prominently in the television show, the crew felt strongly about keeping production local which presented unique challenges in the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina. Tasks as simple as locating required construction materials took twice the effort, items that would normally be easy to come by had to be shipped from neighbouring states. As the cast and crew begin the setup of a new studio, it was quickly apparent that the biggest asset the group had was the dedication of the crew. The Movers have ﬁlmed three seasons of their hit musicand-comedy series for Disney Junior and sales of Movers CDs, DVDs and merchandise are approaching a half million. Parenting Magazine praised the band’s “dash of rebellion” and songs that are “fresh and treacle-free.” National televi-

sion appearances include The View, Live with Regis Kelly, and Good Morning America. The Movers have also become a force to be reckoned with in the concert business. Their recent “In a Big Warehouse” tour attracted 150,000 fans and was one of Pollstar magazine’s top 100 tours of the year. They received stellar reviews from concertgoers thanks to the guys’ highly interactive music and winning ways with an audience. In addition to showcasing the Movers’ music, the Disney Junior series has introduced international audiences to the band members’ lively comedic talents. “We all love the classic comedy,” Durbin says. “Lots of people talk about the Monkees, which are an obvious reference for us. But really it’s Jerry Lewis, the Marx Brothers, Carol Burnett. Oldschool fun.” The Movers will be performing two shoes at Centrepointe Theatres October 24 (1 PM & 4 PM).

SENS EXTRA

Better, faster, stronger Sens first round pick leaves camp with contract but returns to junior adam.kveton@metroland.com

The Ottawa Senators first pick of the NHL 2015 draft, Thomas Chabot, has left Ottawa with a contract and two main aspects of his game to work on to improve his chances of making the team’s roster at next season’s training camp. The club signed Chabot, an 18-year-old, 6-foot-2 defenceman to a three-year entry-level contract, general manager Bryan Murray announced on Sept. 30. Though Chabot has now returned to play with the Saint John Sea Dogs in the Quebec Major Junior Hockey League, he said he was very satisfied with his first training camp experience with the Senators. “They told me I had a great camp and I knew I had a great camp,” said Chabot. “It’s hard to go (to camp) and not make it (on the team), but I wasn’t really thinking about it. I was just focusing to get to learn and enjoy the experience and live it day by day and try to get better,” he said.

“To be back now and to get back in junior with a contract in your hands, it feels real good.” The training camp was one of the first opportunities Chabot has had to play with and against players older than himself, he said. “Everything was quicker; everybody was stronger, so it was something really different.” While Chabot worked to adjust his game, using his own speed and trying to simplify his game, he said speed and power are the two major things he will have to work on. “You’ve always got to be faster, but I’m going to try to be stronger … to be strategic for me to battle against older guys,” Chabot said. “I have some things to learn in my game, but first thing is to be stronger in my game and develop physically.” Chabot said he is aiming to become a player with a strong two-way game with an emphasis on offence, and strong skating ability who’s not afraid to carry the puck. He listed Blackhawks de-

fenceman Duncan Keith and L.A. Kings defenceman Drew Doughty among his inspirations. Returning to the Sea Dogs, Chabot has earned an assist after two games in which the Sea Dogs defeated the Gatineau Olympiques 4-3 and the Shawinigan Cataractes 5-2. “I know we have a great team, we have a lot of good players, so I know it’s going to be an exciting year,” he said. Last year, Chabot recorded 41 points with 12 goals and 29 assists, in addition to 62 penalty minutes in 66 games. Asked who his dream team was growing up, Chabot said it was the Montreal Canadiens, but added, “I wouldn’t mind anywhere to get drafted. (Getting drafted by the Sens) was something special for me.” SENS START SEASON

Holocaust survivor fundraising concert has a poignant history on all WINTER TIRES OPTIONS

Jewish Family Services initiative draws renowned violinist to Ottawa steph.willems@metroland.com

In 1933, Eugene Drucker’s father – an accomplished violinist living in Cologne, Germany – was prevented from finishing the Brahms Violin Concerto by members of the newly empowered Nazi party on account of his Jewish heritage. The younger Drucker, himself a renowned violinist, symbolically finished his father’s interrupted performance a lifetime later, performing the concerto in Israel earlier this year. Drucker will bring that same concert to Ottawa’s National Gallery on

Nov. 1, in support of Jewish Family Services’ efforts to fund social and recreational programming for Russian Jewish seniors now living in Ottawa. Joined by pianist Marija Stroke – whose father escaped from the Nazis in 1943 – Drucker will perform Brahms, Bach and Prokofiev in memory of those who survived, and those who perished, in the Holocaust. “We wanted to replicate it here,” said Mark Zarecki, executive director of JFS. “When he understood what we wanted to do, he agreed to do it at little cost – as long as the money raised went to Holocaust

Councillor looks to thank veterans with free Remembrance Day parking TIRE TEST RESULTS

OVERALL SCORE

Erin McCracken

erin.mccracken@metroland.com

Veterans may be able to park for free when they attend Remembrance Day services this November at the National War Memorial in downtown Ottawa. The city’s transportation committee unanimously supported Gloucester-South Nepean Coun. Michael Qaqish’s motion Oct. 7, and was expected to be considered by council Oct. 14. If approved, those driving vehicles with veterans’ licence plates from any province, which depict a red poppy and the word ‘veteran,’ would be able enjoy free on-street parking on metered streets in the vicinity of the National War Memorial, within the posted parking hours, and nearby in the city’s underground garage at city hall. “I thought it was a thoughtful idea (for) that one day where you do get veterans from across the city come downtown, especially the older ones,” Qaqish told Metroland Media. The councillor’s quest was inspired by a retired military veteran and Riverside South resident, who approached him in recent months to

pitch the idea. “Initially, his request was to look at free parking all year round for veterans,” said Qaqish, who then sought feedback from city staff and council colleagues. He also did some research and learned the idea was first raised – and rejected – by a previous council. “There’s issues with enforcement. There’s issues with revenue,” Qaqish said. During a previous council term, concerns were also raised over whether others driving a veteran’s vehicle, such as a veteran’s licensed children, would be entitled to the complimentary parking. Though there were issues raised around providing it 365 days a year, Qaqish felt there was an appetite to provide the free parking on Nov. 11. “So this was sort of a compromise that we came up with,” he said. Qaqish’s motion still needs council support, but he expressed optimism about its chances for approval. If given the green light, it could serve as a pilot project this year. “And then that will give us a sense

For more than 40 years our community has benefited from the care and medical expertise at CHEO. While some of us have thankfully never had to use CHEO, others have for minor or sometimes more serious issues. The one commonality we all share is a great respect and appreciation for CHEO.

Women take over Habitat for Humanity build for special program Brier Dodge

brier.dodge@metroland.com

A nail is a nail, no matter who holds the hammer. “Whether it’s a male or a female, hammer, nail going into the board – gender doesn’t really matter,” said paramedic Tracy Levesque, a member of the Women in Emergency and Protective Services build team with Habitat for Humanity. She’s completed multiple renovations, and is comfortable navigating her way around a construction site. But there’s still something special about getting a group of women together to complete a special women’s build project at the Habitat for Humanity site on Cousineau Street in Orléans. “They’re all really committed. We understand single women, and families. We get it,” said team captain Nadine Leduc. “And that’s why women work as hard as we do. We

From left, Nadine Leduc, Breanne Lessard, Dana Koss, Kassandra Reinhardt and Amanda Bleeks take part in a women’s build day in Orléans with Habitat for Humanity on Oct. 7. The women were all part of the Women in Emergency and Protective Services group that has raised almost $20,000 for four Orléans homes. get it.” The team was on site on Oct. 7 for one of their two build days. As a part of the women’s build project, all-female teams will complete the fundraising

and work equivalent to building one house in Orléans. There are four houses being built on the site - two semi-detached homes, and two single family homes. Because of the way the site

is structured, it wasn’t feasible to have the women just work on one home, because they

need to have certain construction phases finished in a particular order. Teams are usually composed of 10 members, and asked to raise $10,000 – though the Women in Emergency and Protective Services team is larger, about 18 members, and has raised closer to $20,000. Each team is booked to come and work on the house for the day, under supervision of a site supervisor. All help on the homes is appreciated, and Leduc said it’s a bonus that the young children, some of them girls, moving into the homes get to see women working. “We want to show the girls that women can be in non-traditional working roles and careers,” she said. There are almost 200 women participating in the women’s

build project this year. To create the team, Leduc had an email sent out for volunteers who were willing to both participate in build days, and fundraising efforts. Fundraisers have ranged from evening events to bake sales, and months of fundraising went into getting the team to their first build day. It also gave them a chance to work alongside some of the future home owners. Habitat for Humanity doesn’t give houses away, but offers pre-screened and selected families a chance to purchase them through an affordable, zero-interest payment plan. “They’re out there hammering with us,” Leduc said of those who will eventually end up living in the homes. “I love it.”

Support workers take job action as teachers return to table Province, school board association resume bargaining with Elementary Teachers’ Federation of Ontario Steph Willems Steph.willems@metroland.com

The same day that the union representing public elementary teachers returned to the bargaining table, support staff at Ontario schools began taking strike action. The legal strike sanctions taken by educational support workers represented by the Ontario Secondary School Teachers’ Federation (OSSTF) were announced Oct. 5, the same day the actions commenced. In Ottawa, the labour action involves staff at both elementary and secondary schools. Affected are educational assistants and early childhood educators, office administrators and assistants, guidance staff, custodial and

maintenance staff, language instructors and childcare staff. Various services will be withdrawn as part of the action, cautioned the Ottawa Carleton District School Board, which was still trying to gather information when they posted a bulletin to parents. Those services could include calling students to the office, monitoring entry to school buildings, school websites and newsletters, and assistance on special events. Controversy broke out soon after the announcement after it was revealed that school doors would go unlocked on buildings that choose to install safety-minded buzzer systems. Those systems were put in

place at many Ontario schools following the Sandy Hook school massacre in Connecticut three years ago. On Oct. 6, Ottawa Mayor Jim Watson called it “disturbing” and “upsetting” that education professionals were neglecting to enact measures designed to keep students safe. On Oct. 7, Nepean-Carleton MPP Lisa MacLeod was ejected from the Ontario Legislature after pressing Education Minister Liz Sandals on the matter. ‘WYNNE WEDNESDAYS’

As representatives from the Elementary Teacher’s Federation of Ontario (ETFO) returned to the bargaining table with officials from the

province and Ontario Public School Boards’ Association (OPSBA), the elementary teachers’ work-to-rule campaigned continued at public elementary schools. Talks had broken off on Sept. 11 after the ETFO rejected a ‘net-zero’ proposal that closely followed those offered to other teachers’ unions. Following early bargaining, Sandals was cautiously optimistic with the way things were progressing. “(It’s) not hugely fast progress, but there is progress being made and given the history with ETFO — where things have often seemed to be in reverse instead of forward — forward is good,” said Sandals the day after talks resumed. While both sides were

meeting, ‘Wynne Wednesdays’ returned for a second week, with teaching staff staging a union picket outside their respective schools. The protests take place outside of school hours, and have yet to interfere with the ability of students and other staff to access the buildings. A memo sent to elementary teachers from the ETFO describes how the September offer from the province and OPSBA removed most of the “contentious demands” contained in earlier bargaining sessions, but still fell short of expectations. “This ignores our right to negotiate contracts that address the unique needs of our members and students,” reads the ETFO memo. “Elementary classes are,

on average, larger than secondary classes. Elementary education is more affected by Ontario’s standardized testing and prescriptive curriculum expectations, which determine teacher workload and teachers’ ability to develop engaging lessons and cater to a student’s natural curiosity. Elementary educators face classrooms with wider ranges of student ability, which results in increased workload,” the memo said. The memo then slammed the province for “imposing an austerity agenda” on the education sector, citing net-zero bargaining’s impact on salaries, benefits, and the ability to negotiate smaller class sizes and educational supports.

CHEO applauds Australian court ruling knocking down gene patents CHEO is applauding the Australian High Court’s recent ruling that human genes cannot be patented and hopes Canada follows in Australia’s footsteps. The regional children’s hospital launched an unprecedented legal challenge against ﬁve U.S. gene patent holders last November, which it says prevents it from testing and treating its patients more quickly. “Two common law countries, the United States and Australia, have now agreed that human genes are not patentable. We hope Canada is next because it will help us realize the full potential of genomic medicine,” Alex Munter, CHEO president and chief executive, said in an Oct. 6 statement. The Australian court overturned two previous lower court judgments in ruling that the BRCA1 gene, which is related to breast and ovarian cancer, can’t be patented, and that human genes are not an

invention. CHEO’s legal case, ﬁled in federal court by Torontobased law ﬁrm Gilbert’s LLP, continues to work its way through the legal system. The case, which was expected to take two to three years, focuses on the testing patent for Long QT, a potentially fatal genetic heart rhythm disorder that can cause quickened, irregular heartbeats. It can lead to fainting, seizures and sudden death in even very healthy people. The hospital wants to change the law allowing broad gene patents so that it can improve patient access to patented genetic tests in Canada. CHEO has two such specialized tests its geneticists want to put into practice that would enable them to identify the Long QT mutation and more quickly treat patients. However, the U.S. patents, which give the holders exclusive right to diagnose the disorder, prevent doctors from being told whether a patient

has Long QT. As a result, Canadian hospitals must send patient blood samples south of the border, resulting in a higher financial cost and a longer wait for results. CHEO said the patenting of human DNA is a roadblock preventing patients from accessing their own genetic information. “Doctors and scientists are on the cusp of being able to examine the whole of human DNA – not just individual genes – through new technologies,” the hospital said in a statement. “Genomics holds the promise to unlock many medical mysteries, speed diagnosis and tailor medical decisions and treatment to patients’ specific genetic profile.” When CHEO, a recognized leader in genetic research, launched its legal case, it became the first hospital in Canada to challenge gene patents in the country. -With files from Erin McCracken

CHEO is celebrating the Australian High Court’s ruling that human genes can’t be patented, and hopes Canada will do the same. The regional children’s hospital is in the process of challenging five U.S. gene patents, which it says prevents its specialists from testing patients for a potentially life-threatening heart rhythm disorder.

animals that can include budgies, ﬁnches, cockatiels, lovebirds, doves, parrotlets, gerbils, mice, hamsters, degus, chinchillas, rats, guinea pigs, rabbits and more. Most often thought of as starter pets, small animals actually require the same level of commitment, enrichment, interaction and vet care as their feline and canine counterparts. Many small animals can also be trained to learn tricks, use a litter box and walk on a leash, among

other things. What they lack in size, they more than make up for in love and companionship and you will quickly ﬁnd yourself under their spell as you play with them and discover their personalities. If you have been hoping to add a little bundle of love to your family, come by the Adoption Centre at 245 West Hunt Club Rd to meet a wide variety of small animals and ﬁnd that perfect match for your family.

Please note: The Ottawa Humane Society has many other companion animals available for adoption. Featured animals are adopted quickly! To learn more about adopting an animal from the Ottawa Humane Society please contact us:

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

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

ARIES – Mar 21/Apr 20 Aries, delve deeper to get to know a new acquaintance more closely. There is more to this person than what you will see on the surface, so don’t hesitate to connect. TAURUS – Apr 21/May 21 Taurus, expect to be pulled in a million directions over the next several days. Keep a cool head and you will handle this situation with the same flare you always do. GEMINI – May 22/Jun 21 Take a step back and reassess a particular situation this week, Gemini. A step back and a new perspective might be just what you need to make the most of this situation. CANCER – Jun 22/Jul 22 Cancer, you sometimes have a sixth sense about you, and it guides you through the tough decisions that need to be made. Rely on your intuition for something major this week. LEO – Jul 23/Aug 23 Leo, you will be the king (or queen) of your domain this week. Others will respect your final decision on many issues, and you will feel comfortable being the head honcho. VIRGO – Aug 24/Sept 22 Virgo, you cannot dictate every situation. Not only can you get frazzled, but also others may begrudge your taking over all of the time. Go with the flow once in a while.

LIBRA – Sept 23/Oct 23 Libra, if you have any tricks up your sleeve, now is a good time to pull them all out. People are expecting serious productivity and you can deliver. SCORPIO – Oct 24/Nov 22 Scorpio, this week presents a great opportunity to allow a colleague to take over the reins of a big project. This person is fully capable and ready for the responsibility. SAGITTARIUS – Nov 23/Dec 21 Sagittarius, others may turn up at your door this week seeking assistance. Don’t be surprised by the sudden visitors, and do your best to send them off with what they need. CAPRICORN – Dec 22/Jan 20 Capricorn, with so much on your schedule, you have to give some serious thought to prioritizing. Otherwise, you may expend energy that cannot be wasted. AQUARIUS – Jan 21/Feb 18 You have been indecisive of late, Aquarius. While you may not know which way to go regarding an important decision, trust your instincts and you won’t be unhappy. PISCES – Feb 19/Mar 20 Treat yourself well this week, Pisces. Dine out at an upscale restaurant or indulge in a spa treatment. You deserve something special. 1015
