Mmmm… Vinyl!

Music Hall MMF 5.1 Record Player
NAD C556 Record Player
Denon DP-300F Record Player
Whether you’re looking to digitize and download your record collection, release your inner DJ, or simply discover the joy of spinning vinyl, the usb-1 is your answer. It has a built-in phono preamp, cartridge, dust cover, and includes all necessary cables and software required for simple plug and play operation.
The construction of the MMF-2.2 has been simplified to focus on the critical music making components; the main bearing, motor, and arm. It is constructed using high quality components and comes complete with cartridge mounted.
The distinctive design isolates the critical sound reproducing components; platter, main bearing, tonearm, and cartridge on the top platform from the motor, switch, wiring and feet which are mounted on the bottom platform. Viso-Elastic cones separate the two platforms and provide vibration damping. The MMF-5.1 comes complete with Music Hall’s Magic 3 cartridge mounted. The Magic 3 is specially built by Ortofon for Music Hall.
When it comes to the C 556, NAD has spent lavishly on the parts of the turntable that define its performance, and has left off the features that do nothing to improve the sound.
Fully automatic push button stop and built-in phono pre-amp along with premounted cartridge make this an easy addition to any audio or A/V system with an aux input. Heavy base design for reduced vibration and increased audio performance.

Tool library opens its doors Steph Willems
steph.willems@metroland.com
Need a specific tool for an odd job but don’t want to shell out money for something you’ll only need once? Well, help has arrived. On Oct. 23, Ottawa’s first tool library opened its doors at Makerspace North, located in the City Centre complex, just off Albert Street. The launch party followed months of advocacy, promotion, and – most of all – tool collecting, in order to stock the non-profit enterprise with everything from rakes and shovels to table saws, lawnmowers and electric drills.

Historical songs and musical pieces associated with Remembrance Day will echo through the Eglise Saint-Francois-d’ Assise in Hintonburg on Nov. 7, thanks to two celebrated performing ensembles. The National Capital Concert Band will join talented artists from the Castenchel Choir for an event aimed at fostering remembrance via a selection of songs made popular during the First and Second World Wars. This is the second time the 60member brasswind band has joined up with the Chelsea, Quebec-based choir to mark Remembrance Day. Heading both ensembles are Nepean High School music teachers - Rocco Romeo is maestro for the band, while Lee Carter is choral director for the choir. Each group brings to the stage

a long history of acclaimed performances and an extensive repertoire of musical styles and languages. Saint-Francois-d’ Assise church on Fairmont Avenue recently celebrated its 125th anniversary, and the historic building’s soaring roof is well suited to a large performance, said Romeo. “The musicians and vocalists were amazed at the sound qualities that came from the church setting when we performed together last year,” stated Romeo. “The setting as well is so fitting for the Acts of Remembrance incorporated into the day.” The event will take place at 1:30 on Nov. 7 at 20 Fairmont Ave, with tickets ($20 per person) available at the door. Group rates are also available. More information is available by calling 613-729-9393.

City Hall goes spooky As darkness fell on Oct. 24, Ottawans young and old made their way into a dim city hall, hoping to find thrills, chills, and quite possible, candy. This was the ninth annual Trick or Treat with the Mayor event, designed to provide a fun pre-Halloween event for children while raising donations for an essential community service. This year’s benefactor of donations was the Ottawa Food Bank’s Baby Supply Cupboard, with admission to the event being one non-perishable item for the service. Here, Mayor Jim Watson, sporting a conductor’s outfit in light of the city’s LRT project, spends some quality time with Kim Tulipan and her daughter Constance Le Bouthillier at the Trick or Treat with the Mayor event held at city hall on Oct. 24.

The former commander of the starship USS Enterprise is coming to Ottawa. The attendance of Montreal-born actor William Shatner, best known for playing Capt. James T. Kirk in the Star Trek franchise, at the thirdannual Ottawa Pop Expo next month is a major coup for organizers. “How did we score that? Through time and patience,” said Cliff Ca-
porale, program director of Ottawa Pop Expo, a celebration of pop culture and science fiction and fantasythemed movies and TV shows at the EY Centre on Nov. 21 and 22. “We weren’t planning for such a huge name for Pop Expo,” said Caporale. “It’s a smaller show so the budgets are different from Ottawa Comiccon, so we were like, ‘OK, let’s go for it.’” The event has featured big-name stars before, including Norman Reedus from The Walking Dead and
Tom Felton, who played Draco Malfoy in the Harry Potter series. In terms of name recognition worldwide, Shatner is the biggest star to appear at the Ottawa popular culture convention, which this year is expected to draw more than 8,000. It was Shatner who first announced his Ottawa appearance via Twitter on Oct. 21. “I think we got the contract, we signed it and not even an hour or something (later) … boom. He announced it himself,” Caporale said with a laugh. Organizers were initially hoping to book him for Ottawa Comiccon in May, a three-day event that attracts
tens of thousands of fans. “Next year is the 50th anniversary of Star Trek, the universe as a whole,” he said. “We saw that Mr. Shatner, or, as I like to say, Sir Shatner, is unfortunately unavailable during our Ottawa Comiccon weekend.” But they were thrilled he could instead attend Pop Expo for a special Friday night appearance on Nov. 20, and during the first official day of the convention on Saturday, Nov. 21. Special tickets for that evening go on sale Oct. 28. Attendees are not required to purchase Pop Expo tickets. For event details and ticket pricing, go to ottawapopexpo.ca.

Four-alarm blaze guts Chinatown businesses, apartments Smoke visible across city as Somerset Street closed for firefighting Steph Willems
Steph.willems@metroland.com
Brown smoke blanketed the Ottawa skyline just before noon on Oct. 21, as fire crews battled a four-alarm blaze that engulfed a two-storey building in Chinatown. The fire was first reported to Ottawa Fire Services at 11:07 a.m., originating at 123 Percy Street. It quickly grew to a threealarm blaze, before a fourth alarm was called around 1 p.m., when the gutted building appeared in danger of collapse. Two aerial ladders attacked the fire from above, while fire crews on the roof of an adjacent building joined in. The fire was first reported in the upper level of the building, according to Ottawa Fire. The building, located on the northeast corner of Somerset Street and Percy, con-
tains the Shiraz Food Market and Middle East Bakery, as well as four residential apartments on the second floor. The Daily Grind coffee house is located in an adjoining building. Somerset Street was roped off for a block in each direction while fire crews battled to gain the upper hand, with heavy smoke affecting visibility and air quality in the blocks west of the fire. work crew
One young man who lived in the building, and asked not to be named, said that a work crew had been working on the roof of the building before the fire started. He and his two roommates fled their apartment about three minutes after first smelling smoke, he said, adding that he was unable to locate one of his two cats be-
fore leaving. The man said his neighbours are “being good about things,” offering to help displaced tenants. Salvation Army representatives were on scene to help the affected, and an OC Transpo shelter bus was brought in to temporarily house those with nowhere to go. Ottawa Fire spokesperson Bob Rainboth said the fire had been brought under control at 2:28 p.m, and that fire crews were “de-escalating” in the vicinity. Photographs from the scene show that most of the upper floor of the building had collapsed. All remaining upright portions of the building have since been knocked down to accomodate nearby vehicle and pedestrian traffic. The cause was ultimately found to be an accidental fire sparked by roofers.

ollowing a gruelling 11-week election campaign, it may come as no surprise that a resounding win for the Liberals left many Canadians in a state of euphoria. First, a clear majority for the Liberals means we don’t have to fear another election call six months down the road, which may have been the case in a minority government situation. Second, the entire world has headlined news about Canada’s handsome new prime minister, which should lend itself to fodder for comedians and editorialists alike for the next six months. As was the case in 2009, when U.S. President Barack Obama first took office, however, this is the honeymoon period. Few in Ottawa can forget Obama’s visit to Ottawa within weeks of the inauguration, his spontaneous trip to the ByWard Market to meet regular Canadians – embarrassingly, we still have Obama Cookies as a memorial to this celebrity event. It was a nightmare for his security detail, but added to the post-election euphoria linked to a handsome, young
BRYNNA LESLIE Capital Muse leader, who also happened to be the first black president in America’s history. As for Canada’s new prime minister-elect, he spent the morning after the election meeting and thanking voters in a Montreal Metro station. The king of the selfie, Trudeau shook hands and posed for at least half a dozen smartphone photos in the video footage I saw. The following day, he was back at it on Parliament Hill. He has vowed to live under less security than his predecessor to make himself more approachable and available to the people of Canada, which is both welcome and frightening. On the whole, it’s all very lovely. I’ve been caught up in the viral shares of news headlines, photos and online quizzes. One of my favourites was “Trudeau vs. Zoolander,” where you
have to guess whether our new prime minister or Ben Stiller’s character gave voice to a particular quote. I achieved 70 per cent on my first round. But what happens after the honeymoon? First, we’ll wait to see who Trudeau appoints to his cabinet on Nov. 4. He has promised a smaller cabinet than that of his predecessor, one where ministers have more autonomy from the PMO and one that is 50 per cent women. The latter promise shouldn’t be hard to fulfill. There are a number of veteran woman Liberals—Judy Sgro, Kirsty Duncan, Carolyn Bennett and Joyce Murray—any of whom could easily be established in cabinet. There are also a number of newcomers, including Ottawa Centre’s Catherine McKenna, an international affairs lawyer, and the founder of the NGO Level, formerly known as Lawyers Without Borders. Sharp as a tack and with international experience in southeast Asia, McKenna is pegged as a favourite for Foreign Affairs, which would make her Canada’s third-ever woman in this portfolio. Once the cabinet is established,

then the real work begins. For those15 anticipating or dreading radical change, don’t hold your breath. These things take time. Trudeau has promised to pull Canada out of the conflict against the Islamic State, but it’s my expectation that even that could take up to a year. Whatever was promised in the campaign, the process of transition needs to go through the bureaucracy, both international and domestic. The same goes for legalization of marijuana, tax changes and international trade agreements. The new government will be bound and restricted by what the previous government has put in place. Some things may take more than a four-year term to unravel or reverse. The most interesting thing from where I sit is the change of mood.

Regardless of the inevitable gaffes and missteps that will take the shine off Trudeau in the coming weeks, the promise of more openness from the new governing party – including more media availability – is a welcome one for those of us in the world of journalism. Will the government and the prime minister maintain that promise when they realize how sharply the media will scrutinize and hold them to account? That remains to be seen. Our collective honeymoon with Trudeau and his government will come to an end sooner or later. But that doesn’t mean we have to let go of our nostalgia for a young and handsome leader who promised change – because Moulin de Provence has Obama Cookies for everyone.

Recognize our great young people
E
very community has young stars, and while they may not have achieved celebrity status, they deserve to be recognized for the feats that they have accomplished. These young stars, our future leaders, are none other than Ontario’s youth. These young individuals who have worked hard to make their community a better place by volunteering for various organizations, making donations, saving lives and maintaining top grade averages. They can be found everywhere, in your homes, at school, on the field, and at church. If you know a young person who deserves praise for their actions and involvement in the community, nominate them today for the Ontario Junior Citizen Awards! We look forward to providing recognition for such outstanding young people who continue to be shining examples of leaders in our community. The Ontario Junior Citizens Award program is co-ordinated by the Ontario Community Newspaper Association, of which this newspaper is a member. The program is sponsored by TD Bank Group and the Insurance Bureau of Canada. Any resident of Ontario aged six to 17 by Nov. 30, is eligible to be chosen as a final recipient of this
award. Anyone can nominate someone as long as this young individual has excelled in one of these five areas: A person involved in worthwhile community service, a special young person contributing to their community while living with a physical or psychological limitation, an individual who has performed an act of heroism in the past year, excellence in achievement in fields such as the arts or athletics, good kids who show a commitment to make life better for others and do more than is normally expected of someone their age. Up to 12 nominees will be chosen as recipients for the provincial award and will receive them at a special ceremony to be held in Toronto sometime in the spring of 2016. Any nominated young person will be personally presented with a certificate of recognition and showcase their contributions in this newspaper.

Time to get moving
A
s a new Canadian government prepares to take over in Canada, you might be thinking about how you can take advantage of the changes about to take place. Here’s an idea: get yourself quickly into the moving business. At times during the election campaign you would hear it argued that elections don’t make that much difference in our day-to-day lives. Despite seeming ideological differences, the argument goes, and despite real hatreds that develop between people of different political stripes, the business of life goes on no matter who is in office and nothing really changes all that much. Whether or not you agree with that premise, there is one place where it doesn’t apply and you’re living in it. Never mind whatever

In this city, hardly anyone is unaffected. To start at the top, it was estimated by the Citizen last year that 94 exempt staff — that is, political appointments — work in the Prime Minister’s Office.

452 exits and entrances. Those who enter the political sphere will have to be replaced in their current jobs. Those who leave it will find new jobs, often in Ottawa. Some of them will move into the communications and lobbying world. More changes there. All of the defeated politicians will be gone, and along with them most of the people on their staffs. New ones will be hired. Whatever jobs those people left will have to be filled. And so it goes down the line. In the end, thousands of people will be affected in this city. Because of our system, those in the public service will not be among them, at least not immediately. We don’t have the spoils system prevalent in some other countries, where a change in government means a wholesale change in the public service. But it’s possible that gradual changes may occur.

promotions for certain bureaucrats, sideways shifts for others. New agencies will be established, others abolished, with resultant shifting of personnel. To take only the most extreme example, think of the administrative apparatus needed to deal with the legalization of marijuana. Policy changes might also affect the way the city looks. Those who thought they might be working on the big memorial to the victims of communism might find themselves working on the small memorial to the victims of communism, in a different location. Or they might be working on a portrait gallery instead, or something else. Certainly, if promises are kept we will see a lot of construction jobs.

Transit not user-friendly To the editor,
Re: OC Transpo to increase tax hike to balance budget I do not ride the bus. I live only 20 km from downtown. The nearest bus stop is about seven km away from my house. The bus is not at all convenient for me. But what percentage of Ottawa residents do have easy access to a bus and do not use the service? OC Transpo ridership is flat or diminishing, their costs are going up and they want property taxpayers to cough up more to subsidize their failure to offer a public transit service that appeals to enough people to pay for itself. As a taxpayer I would ask the top earners (management) at OC Transpo to determine why so many residents choose
Thanks to workers To the editor,
to drive their own vehicles over taking the bus. And to create and execute a plan to make public transit so user-friendly, convenient and cost-effective that people would ask themselves why they would choose to shovel their driveways, scrape the ice from their windshields, honk their horn after being cut off or risk an accident in rush hour traffic ever again? Raising taxes and fares are not the way. Perhaps OC Transpo could start by looking at why every single city employee living within 500 metres of a bus stop does not take the bus to work and what change to the bus service would make them leave their car at home.
I would like to take this opportunity to thank the more than 230,000 Canadians who contributed to the successful delivery of the 42nd general election. Once again, Canadians were willing to take time from their busy lives, making personal and professional sacrifices to work long hours to ensure their fellow citizens could exercise their democratic right to vote and receive the election results without delay following the close of the polls. I am overwhelmed by the exceptional professionalism and dedication our election workers have demonstrated in serving Canadian electors, often in very challenging circumstances.

Council approves overnight parking ban changes Winter fees to increase to $140 Alex Robinson
alex.robinson@metroland.com
City council has approved changes to overnight parking ban rules that will bump monthly parking fees up to $140 this winter. The overnight parking ban comes into effect during winter months any night the forecast calls for more than seven centimetres of snow. A list of amendments to the city’s bylaw concerning the overnight parking ban was passed at a city council meeting on Oct. 14. The changes included opening up
city-owned parking garages for people to park in for free when the ban is in place. The new policy will also give city management the ability to call off a ban as they see fit, to give them more flexibility. Fees for on-street parking passes will also be increased during winter months to $140 from $59. Monthly fees during the summer will be $30. The annual fee of $648 for a parking pass will remain the same. City staff has said this hike will affect few people as only 100 of 1,400 drivers who had parking passes last year only had them for the winter months. The maximum fine for leaving a car parked on the road during the ban without a parking pass will also rise this winter to $95 from $85. The city will also be towing cars
that have been left out on the streets. After the city became aware of an $11-million shortfall in its winter maintenance budget last year, it started looking at ways to change the overnight parking ban. The ban was meant to get cars off the street so that plows could clear them of snow, but had proved fairly ineffective in some places, city staff have said. Many drivers were still leaving their vehicles, meaning plow drivers would have to take multiple passes. The city held three public consultations to see how it could rejig the overnight parking ban policy and came up with the amendments that council approved. The changes will come into effect on Nov. 15.

The city is set to introduce a set of new regulations concerning the overnight parking ban after city council approved them on Oct. 14.

Membership to tool library a plus for do-it-yourselfers Continued from page 1
Co-founders Bettina Vollmerhausen and Frederic Sune (a.k.a. Tool Goddess and Toll Master according to their business cards) marked the occasion by cutting into a celebratory cake with a pruning saw. The tool library, according to Vollmerhausen, represents the latest expansion of the sharing economy. “Sune and I had a conversation about how many people have tools in their basement that got used for one project, and why isn’t there a central source where people can just share tools,” she said. “He really ignited it, and we got going on it.” A crowdfunding campaign got the operation off the ground and paid the initial rent, and Makerspace North was chosen not just for its available space, but also for its easily accessible and central location. Other occupants of Mak-
erspace North include a welder, a woodworker and a laser cutter, making the tool library a good fit. Over the course of two months in late summer, an appeal went out to residents to donate their unwanted or unused tools, and Ottawa responded in a very big way. “Look around – it’s amazing,” said Vollmerhausen. “Everything you see in our library is 100 per cent donations, and we have way more (in storage). It’s been amazing. Even the older generations, who are downsizing or moving into retirement homes, we’ve had people saying ‘My mother or father has passed away, and they had a workshop – do you want the tools? They’d have loved that people will continue to use them.’” While the crowdfunding money got the operation off the ground, memberships will sustain the tool library. Fifty dollars a month gives
a member unlimited access to the contents of the library. The next step for the library, according to Vollmerhausen, is to offer workshops for members. “Not only giving them access to resources, but also helping them learn new skills,” she said. “We’re open two days a week – Wednesdays and Saturdays – and we’re trying to always have a tool doctor on hand. We have tool doctors now that assess all of the donations, making sure they’re safe to use, and they’re also here as a tool ninja for people who don’t know what they need or how to operate the tool.” Makerspace North is located on the upper level of the City Centre complex, at 250 City Centre Ave., accessed via a ramp at the south side of the building. More information about the library and its contents can be found at ottawatoollibrary.com

Between the evenings of Oct. 23 and Oct. 25, Highway 417 was shut down between Rochester and Metcalfe streets in order to complete the removal and rapid replacement of the Kent Street overpass. The project is part of the Ministry of Transportation’s rehabilitation and replacement plan for downtown 417 bridges.

The school year is in full swing. Here are the highlights of what is going around the school board. Labour Issues at the OCDSB This school year started with uncertainty as labour issues remain unresolved at our elementary schools. I can happily report that agreements have been reached with high school teachers who are represented by OSSTF (Ontario Secondary School Teachers Federation). Unfortunately elementary teachers represented by ETFO (Elementary Teachers Federation of Ontario) are still stalled in negotiations at the provincial level. Labour action has mostly been in the refusal of teachers and other school staff to do certain administrative duties. This has resulted in the cancellation of field trips and other extra curricular activities. It is my hope that negotiations will continue and a collective agreement will be reached at the provincial level so the OCDSB can begin local discussions. We look forward to seeing a solution that will put students’ best interests first. Proposed Curriculum change 50/50 French/English in Kindergarten The OCDSB Is looking to have all kindergarten classes in both the French Immersion and English programs have a 50/50 split of French/English at all elementary schools across the district. This program is already in use in the Ottawa Catholic school board system. The balance out will be that mathematics will be taught in english instead of french in the all grades. For a complete outline of the proposed changed please go to the Board website at www.OCDSB.ca. Parents and community members are welcome to send their comments on this propose change to chat@ocdsb.ca or by completing the online survey. Comments can be submitted up to October 31st. Enrolment at Elementary schools in Bay Ward As the Early French Immersion (EFI) program continues to grow in popularity the English program equally sees a drop in enrolment. Our board also offers a high quality Middle French Immersion (MFI) program which begins in Grade 4. In Bay Ward the MFI program is available at D Roy Kennedy. Despite these other options almost 70% of parents are placing their children in EFI in kindergarten. It should be pointed out that the english stream program continues to provide an excellent curriculum. All English stream students are taught Core French which uses the same high standards as the EFI and the MFI programs. Our students from all three of these program have performed well on international standardized tests showing a proficiency in French as a second language both in written and oral skills. EFI has been an optional program for over 40 years but now it has become the choice of the majority. Our board needs to look at how this trend has effected enrolment and address the imbalance it has caused in school populations. I will be asking our Board to examine this issue in Bay Ward as well as other school enrolment imbalances across the district. October is Walk to School Month I am pleased with the growth level of participation from our local schools to walking to school. Some of our schools have a majority of students walk to school. For others with larger attendance boundaries we are seeing an increase in walking because parental involvement.

Memories made with a few pennies and marshmallows
H
ad I not gone to Briscoe’s General Store that day with Mother... a Saturday it was...we would not have had that wonderful fall evening out on the farm in Northcote. It all started when Mother was just about finished with gathering up the few things she needed and asking Mr. Briscoe to just put them on her bill. I had three of those very large brown pennies in my pocket, and I was looking over the choices in the candy counter. But when I heard Mother ask Mr. Briscoe to add her purchases to her bill, I was overcome with a feeling of deep sadness. And so I reached into my pocket and took out the coins and handed them to Mr. Briscoe and asked him to please take them off Mother’s bill. He looked at the coins in his hand, and looked at Mother, who I thought was about to break into tears. “I’ll tell you what I’ll do,” he said. “I’ll take three cents off your mother’s bill, and in exchange I’ll give you this bag of marshmallows.”
MARY COOK Memories We had never had marshmallows on the farm. After all, they would be considered sheer luxury! I looked at Mother for approval, and she nodded. I ran to the buggy as fast as my legs could carry me, and had to talk myself out of diving into the brown paper bag to eat a few on my way back to the farm. It was a beautiful fall day, and when we pulled into the yard, and Everett came to unhitch Queenie off the buggy, Mother and I had to wade through the mounds of leaves fallen off the big maple tree to get to the back door. It was then Mother said she had this wonderful idea, and it would be something the whole family could enjoy, and she grabbed the bag of marshmallows out of my hand and plunked it on top of the ice box. “We’ll all rake leaves today, and
tonight, we’ll have a bonfire and we’ll roast the marshmallows.” Well, sharing my treat with everyone else certainly wasn’t in my plans, but the thought of a bonfire thrilled me no end! And so for the entire afternoon, using every rake we could find, including two Father used to rake out the manure in the barns, we five children and Mother, and even Father, mounded the fallen leaves into a crimson mountain, well away from the house. Father made sure it was close to the watering trough too ...“Just in case,” he said. chores done
Evening chores, supper, and redding up the kitchen, were all done in jig time, and blocks of wood taken out of the summer kitchen were put around the heaped leaves. The sky was black. Night had closed in around us, and the nip of fall was in the air. Father had found long pieces of twigs, and with his jackknife, put points on
each end. It was like Christmas Eve to me, sitting on a block of wood, with a quilt wrapped around my legs, and Mother said since I was given the marshmallows, I should be the one to hold the bag. Father circled the pile, and every few feet he lit a match and touched the leaves with its flame. Soon, the fire had caught, and the mound became a mass of burning leaves. My sister Audrey, Mother and I had skewered a marshmallow onto our sticks, but my three brothers chose to use the three-pronged forks they used to catch mudpout in the Bonnecherre. I could see everyone’s face in the light of the fire, and I was overcome with such a feeling of happiness that I thought I just might explode. The marshmallows turned black on the outside, and the insides were just as I expected them to be: scorching hot and sweet like honey. Long after the brown paper bag was empty, we sat around the fire. The boys stretched out on the grass with their feet towards
the burning leaves. Father with his back against the water trough, had lit his pipe, and I could see the red from its bowl, and a wisp of smoke from the tobacco he had tamped into it. We sat long after the fire had died down to just smoldering ashes. But no one moved to go into the house. The brothers talked about things boys talked about back then, and Audrey and Mother sang familiar songs. I rested my head on my sister’s shoulder, and she put an arm around me, as she so often did. I looked up at the dark sky, and saw the warm glow of the coal oil lamp in the window in the kitchen, and the warmest feeling came over me. And I marveled at what simple joy and contentment you could get out of only three big pennies. Interested in an electronic version of Mary’s books?

Planning committee OKs ‘landmark’ Wellington development Councillors argue meaning of ‘wow’
council rejected the plan, citing the nine-storey limit in the area’s community design plan. The developer subsequently appealed council’s decision to the Ontario Municipal Board, which ruled the developer could either build up to nine stories, or submit a new 12-storey design that could be a considered a “landmark.” The developer maintained that it needed to build a 12storey building to make the investment worthwhile because of the cost of remediating the site’s contaminated soil. Mizrahi came up with a new design with a threestorey copper roof and spire that it shared with residents at a meeting on Sept. 24.

alex.robinson@metroland.com
The city’s planning committee has approved the development of a 12-storey building on Wellington Street West, despite protests from the area’s councillor, Jeff Leiper. After what councillors agreed was one of the most bizarre discussions in recent memory, they voted 8-2 in favour of the development on Oct. 27, with Leiper and Rideau-Rockcliffe Coun. Tobi Nussbaum casting the only dissenting votes. “An overwhelming majority of people I’ve heard from don’t consider this as a landmark,” Leiper said at the meeting. “They don’t consider the building to be ostentatious. It is out of character of the neighbourhood and is not an example of excellent archi-

WOW
The OMB set out nine criteria for Mizrahi to follow, which were central to the debate at the planning committee meeting as to whether
the building should be approved. Among them were the requirements that the development have an “element of wow.” Councillors struggled to determine how to define the “wow factor” and wrestled with whether the proposal would be a landmark. “We’re not in Kansas anymore. I don’t envy staff for having to weigh in on this,” Leiper said of the committee’s task to determine if the proposal had a wow factor. City staff said the revised plan did have the wow factor and that it does constitute a building that would be a landmark, but Leiper and others disagreed. “It’s posterity that decides whether something is a landmark,” said Peter Coffman, an architectural historian and Kitchissippi resident who attended the meeting. “That isn’t a status that can be determined by a committee in advance.” Coffman blasted the OMB’s criteria, saying they
provide a loophole for the developers to get around planning regulations. Proponents said the building would be a landmark, pointing to the architectural elements taken from the Confederation Building on Parliament Hill. “It is unlike any building in the neighbourhood and that in my view is one of its strengths,” said Ryland Dorsay, a long-time resident of Island Park Drive. More than 17 members of the public spoke at the meeting, some in opposition and some in support of the development. City staff received written comments from 19 residents at the earlier Sept. 24 meeting, eight of which supported the proposal. The plan for the building includes 114 residential units, commercial space on the ground floor and a fourfloor parking garage. If city council approves the application, Mizrahi could break ground on the site as early as 2017.

Mayor to lead economic development trip to China, Thailand Visit begins Nov. 20 in Bangkok Brier Dodge
brier.dodge@metroland.com
Mayor Jim Watson will lead delegations to China and Thailand in November, he announced on Oct. 21, flanked by the ambassadors of both countries. Watson will be part of the Ottawa Tourism delegation in Bangkok from Nov. 20 to 22 for the OneYoungWorld Summit, which Ottawa will host in 2016. Watson said it made sense to schedule the trip to China, where he will be with Invest Ottawa and business leaders at the same time while he was already in that part of the world. He will be in China prior to Bangkok, and spend his time in Beijing. He’ll speak at an investment and innovation seminar hosted by Invest Ottawa and partners while there. There will also be 15 local business leaders who will travel to China as a part of the
Ottawa delegation. “We have to continue to grow the economy, the economy doesn’t grow on its own,” Watson said. “We have to get out there and market, like every other international city around the world. “We are a city that really has to go out and expand its private sector footprint, because we’ve seen over the last several years a shrinkage of the federal government.” Beijing is Ottawa’s only sister city, and the Chinese government purchased the large sign in Chinatown on Somerset Street West as a gift to the City of Ottawa. During the trip, Watson and delegates will also meet with Beijing municipal government representatives, China’s Ministry of Culture and the Canadian ambassador. It is expected that the meetings will focus on investment opportunities, cultural exchanges and ways to recognize the 150th anniversary of
Canada in 2017. Watson last travelled to Beijing in 2013 with a business delegation. Over the past two years, Invest Ottawa has organized 10 trips to China and received approximately 30 incoming Chinese delegations. The mayor’s travel and accommodations are being paid for by the Invest Ottawa and Ottawa Tourism budgets, though the city ultimately funds Invest Ottawa and has contributed towards Ottawa Tourism’s budget. The total cost of his trip is yet to be determined, and Watson said that while there will always be people who oppose city spending on any travel, it’s worthwhile. No city councillors will join him on the trip. “There will always be people who don’t want me to travel to Stittsville because it’s too expensive,” Watson said. “But at the end of the day, these are good investments that bring back millions of dollars in economic activity and create more jobs.”

Marathon to go golden Brier Dodge
brier.dodge@metroland.com
The Tamarack Ottawa Race Weekend’s marathon has been awarded a gold level label by the International Association of Athletics Federation (IAAF), organizers announced on Oct. 22 at city hall. “We have literally grown our own world class sporting event from scratch,” said race director John Halvorsen. “I am beyond proud.” The marathon was granted the gold standard after it fulfilled criteria this year at the 2015 event. The 10 km race was granted the gold standard for the 2015 race after it met the criteria in 2014. Halvorsen said the missing piece for the marathon was to meet the criteria of enough elite runners from the right range of international countries. The criteria was met this year, meaning the IAAF could go ahead and grant the gold standard to both the marathon and the 10 km races for 2016.
“We join the ranks of Chicago, Boston, New York and Toronto,” said Halvorsen, who added that Lisbon, Portugal, is the only other city in the world to host two gold standard events on the same weekend. He was presented with the official certificate by Abby Hoffman, a fourtime Olympian and IAAF member, who happens to live a block away from the race route in Ottawa. “I live half a block from the canal, so I stood at the Bank Street Bridge and saw them going up and down Colonel By,” she said, adding she’s seen the spirit and high-calibre quality of the event year after year. “I think this is less of an incentive, but recognition to Ottawa.” Hoffman said that the gold level designation works as an assurance to those who enter events that there will not only be a certain quality of course and management of the race,
but also a certain number of highcalibre, elite athletes from different countries to compete against. “It sends a clear message – it’s a world class event and will continue to be,” said Orléans Coun. Bob Monette, who spoke at the ceremony at city hall. Organizers hope to grow the number of participants who enter the marathon event for the race weekend to peak at close to 10,000 runners in 2017. Last year, there were 5,800
participants in the event – a huge leap from the 146 runners who took part in the very first Ottawa Marathon in 1975.
The 2016 Tamarack Ottawa Race Weekend is May 28-29, with the marathon slated for Sunday, May 29.
ECONOMIC BENEFIT
IN THE NUMBERS
The same day as the gold level announcement, the Tamarack Ottawa Race Weekend staff released the economic benefit numbers from the 2015 race. They said $15.1 million was spend in the region by runners, participants, event sponsors and race organizers, and it provided $23.1 million in economic activity for the city of Ottawa, including wages and salaries.
*38,220: the number of out-oftown participants in the race weekend *49,439: the number of total participants *2,500: the number of volunteers *$323 : the average amount spent per person on or at race weekend * 87 per cent: the number of visitors who stayed at least one night in the capital

It’s been a year since Cpl. Nathan Cirillo was murdered, but Canada continues to grieve. Hundreds gathered at the National War Memorial Thursday to honour the sentry, who was gunned down as he stood guard at the monument on the morning of Oct. 22, 2014. The ceremony also remembered Warrant Officer Patrice Vincent, who died two days earlier after he was targeted and hit by a car because he was wearing a military uniform in Saint-Jean-sur-Richelieu, Que. “Their duty was to defend us and to bravely stand on guard for our country,” Governor General David Johnston said at the ceremony, which was attended by the families of Cirillo and Vincent. “Ours is to remember their sacrifice and remember why they served.” Cirillo was reportedly shot at point-blank range by Michael Zehaf-Bibeau, who then stormed Parliament Hill, where he was later shot and killed. The shooting sent the capital into a frenzied lock down for most of the day, as police tried to determine if Zehaf-Bibeau had acted alone. The events of those days shook the nation in a way that some say changed Canada forever, but Johnston disagrees. See THIS, page 28

‘This is who we are’: Governor General Continued from page 23
“Last October, many people said Canada would never by the same, but I don’t think Canada changed forever,â€? he said. “Canadians are caring and courageous people. This is who we are and that will not change.â€? Johnston recalled the heroism of those who leapt into action in the face of danger and the ďŹ rst responders who came to Cirillo’s aid on that day. “Such moments arise rarely in a nation’s history and how we respond tells us what kind of people we are,â€? Johnston said. “We owe an enormous debt to everyone who pulled together one year ago with such bravery, humanity and resolve. And so, here we stand and here we shall remain.â€?
A 21-gun salute ďŹ lled the air as members of the military and RCMP stood in silence. Elected ofďŹ cials, dignitaries, as well as family and friends of Cirillo and Vincent watched as CF-18 Hornets conducted a “missing manâ€? yby – a formation typically done in memory of a fallen pilot. Outgoing Prime Minister Stephen Harper and Prime Minister-designate Justin Trudeau laid a wreath together for the two fallen men. “Today, on this solemn anniversary, I join Canadians from coast to coast to coast in committing that we shall continue moving forward, together,â€? Trudeau said in a statement. This summer, the Department of National Defence contracted the Ottawa police to protect the sentries in the hope that the tragedy that befell Cirillo will never happen again.
STEPH WILLEMS/METROLAND
Italian community honours Cirillo Claudio Pagani, left, president of Ottawa’s Italian Week, joined Angelo Filoso, president of the Italian Canadian Community Centre, and Italian ambassador Gian Lorenzo Cornado in unveiling a memorial plaque in memory of Corporal Nathan Cirillo in the Piazza Dante on Oct. 25, across from St. Anthony’s Church on Booth Street. The plaque will recognize Cirillo’s sacrifice, while the surroundings mark his Italian heritage. Donations to Italian Week and proceeds from its activities have been donated to Cirillo’s young son.

That suspect is said to also be a Caucasian male in his 20s, between five-foot-eight and five-foot-10, with short dark hair. He too was wearing a black winter coat with a fur hood liner. In this incident, he was wearing beige pants and running shoes. In both cases, the suspect did not have facial hair or glasses. Neither victim required medical treatment, Benoit confirmed. Police are urging anyone with information on these attacks to contact the sexual assault and child abuse unit by calling 613-236-1222, ext. 5944, or call National Capital Area Crime Stoppers at 613233-8477.

One man may be responsible for two near identical sexual assaults on young women in less than 24 hours, prompting police to ask for the public’s help. Investigators with the Ottawa police sexual assault and child abuse section suspect the attacks may be related for several reasons. “In some incidents it’s going to be related to how it was done,” said Const. Chuck Benoit, Ottawa police spokesperson. Connecting crimes can be based on similarity in clothing, words spoken by the suspect, items the suspect may have been carrying at the time, how he may have grabbed the victim and evidence left behind. “Certain details are very similar, so they’re able to say there’s a possibility that this is the same suspect,” Benoit said, adding the timing and location of the assaults may also be a factor in making that link.
Police are now turning to the public for help in identifying the suspect to prevent possible future attacks. “If it’s two separate incidents and he’s still at large – this is one of the reasons why they’re pushing it out to the public,” said Benoit. In the first case, police said a young woman walking alone was approached from behind and sexually assaulted on Oct. 19 around 11 p.m. in the 100block of Chesterton Drive in the Fisher Glen neighbourhood, not far from General Burns Park. “The female victim screamed and the male suspect fled on foot,” police said in a statement.

Giant bugs on display at Museum of Nature Exhibition runs Oct. 23 to March 27 Alex Robinson
alex.robinson@metroland.com
Giant bugs are taking over the Canadian Museum of Nature – giant bugs made of plastic that is. The larger-than-life replicas are part of a new traveling exhibition – Bugs: Outside the Box – which opens Oct. 23 and invites the young and curious to come face-toface with insect specimens. “It is going to force us all to get up and close and personal with the world of insects, both large and small,” said Meg Beckel, the museum’s CEO. The exhibition is anchored by 16 sculptures, which were created by Italian artist Lorenzo Possenti. The artist creates his incredibly detailed replicas by study-
ing real specimens, building moulds for each part and filling them with a liquid resin that hardens. “What I think makes it special is insects are so small and this brings them up to a size that we can see them with a naked eye,” said Robert Anderson, a research scientist with the museum. see the details
“So with these big sculptures, you can actually look at details of how insects are put together and see it pretty clearly without the aid of a microscope or anything like that.” The exhibition also displays more than 2,000 species of the museum’s collection of scientific specimens and six live species in terrariums. Monarch butterflies, Hercules beetles, giant stick insects and spiny jungle nymphs will be among the
live insects flying and crawling around tanks in the exhibit, which continues until March 27, 2016. The exhibit will also include interactive activities and programs for kids in a play area, where they can “roll like a dung beetle, hope like a grasshopper, don a bug eye mask, and be a beetle ‘heavy weight lifter.’” There will even be some edible bugs to taste for the more adventurous crowd. More than 70 per cent of all animal species in the world are insects, making it all the more important we get to know them, said Anderson. “I’m hoping people will take away as a message that insects aren’t all bad, gushy, smushy little things you should be afraid of,” he said. “They’re beautiful in their own way. They do lots of wonderful things in the environment we really can’t do without.”
Tickets for the exhibition cost a surcharge of $4 in addition to the regular general admission fee at the museum. For more information, visit nature.ca.

Every porch is a stage At least, that’s the case in Hintonburg on the afternoon of Oct. 24, as the community takes part in the inaugural Ottawa Porchfest event. Artists and musicians performed on both their own and donated porches across the neighbourhood, chosen by Ottawa Porchfest’s founder for their strong creative side. Here, Rachel Eugster and Andrew Mah (two-thirds of Ottawa’s Dragon’s Tea Trio) perform before a crowd on Bayswater Avenue.

Fundraiser planned for Nov. 8 Mirai-Josiah Kushida was born on Dec. 18, 2008 in Montfort Hospital. He was perfect in every way. But two months after his birth he had a seizure and in that moment everything change. Mirai was diagnosed with a severe form of epilepsy – Dravet syndrome. About 1,000 people in Canada have Dravet spectrum disorders, but many are undiagnosed. About 72,000 Canadians have epilepsy not fully controlled by existing medications. By his first birthday, he was already on five different medications to control his seizures. Despite the doctors’ best efforts, his condition kept getting worse. The following years would be an arduous journey from Canada to Japan in search of alternative treatments. Mirai would show promise, taking his first steps and learning to speak both Japanese and English. But then the seizures would return and he would again slip away. In 2013, he had a massive cluster of seizures and nearly died. The little boy pulled through, but he had lost all vision, motor and verbal skills. The strain of Mirai’s health problems proved too much for his parents and their relationship fell apart. In Japan therapy options were very limited, and his mother brought him home to Canada in May 2014. While the healthcare system covers some of Mirai’s care, thousands of dollars worth of therapies are not covered. To help him continue to access these treatments, Mirai’s supporters are holding a fundraiser on Nov. 8 at Sala San Marco on Preston Street. The family-friendly event will feature a magician and other entertainers. The family has also set up a fundraising website at www.youcaring.com/mirai.kushida.

Ben
Ben is an 8 month old border collie who enjoys his daily hike at Conroy Pit, and his weekly agility lessons. Ben was named by his breeder because he was the first born and the biggest of the litter of 7, “Big Ben”. Ben is friendly, and loves to engage other willing dogs in a game of chase. He tries to be mommy’s little helper in the garden, by grabbing the nozzle of the garden hose, and burying it in his freshly dug hole. He has a wonderful grin that has us all love him.
Pet Adoptions Whether it’s studies on heart disease, stroke, immunity, allergies, depression, or anxiety, there is an common finding showing up in more and more medical research these days: It helps to have a pet. You don’t have to look hard to find a new report on the positive impacts of pets on our physical and mental health. Indeed, caring for a pet has been linked to everything from physical health to happiness to longevity. The rationale, though, is simpler than you may think. Properly caring for a pet provides us with three key components of a long and healthy life: exercise, purpose, and companionship. We all know it: Exercise every day keeps the doctor away. Whether it’s taking Fido for a hike or batting cat nip toys back and forth on the floor with Fluffy, pets get us off the couch and moving, without having to pack a bag for the gym or subscribe to the newest costly at-home fitness program. Our commitment to caring for our pet’s physical needs doubles as caring for our own. Caring for a pet also provides a sense of purpose and a structure to our daily routine. The thought of heading to work may not make you want to get out of bed in the morning, but knowing a furry companion is
waiting for you to start her day with – to feed, walk, play with and snuggle before you launch into other responsibilities – may be just what it takes to motivate you to start your day. Caring for a pet has been proven to result in adults – including the elderly – caring better for themselves on a daily basis. And, pets can be the perfect cure for loneliness – in more ways than one. Pets provide us with their unmatched unconditional love and loyalty; they become our someone to wake up with, come home to, and talk to every day. However, owning a pet can also be the best way to boost our social interaction with people. Pets are great conversation starters and easy ice breakers: taking your pet to the park or to obedience classes can be a great way to meet people and make new friends … or more! So, whether you’re looking to get fit, prevent health problems in the future, or simply find a date for Saturday, you may not need to look any further than the loyal furball curled up at your feet. Or, if you don’t have a pet at home, maybe it’s time to skip the pharmacy and head to your local humane society – your perfect match (and cure) may be waiting for you.
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, you can’t seem to focus your attention on one thing this week. However, wandering thoughts may put you in touch with some better ideas. TAURUS – Apr 21/May 21 Taurus, you may like to tackle projects on your own, but sometimes letting someone else pitch in can provide a fresh perspective and a new way of doing things. GEMINI – May 22/Jun 21 It’s time to get serious about your job-seeking efforts, Gemini. Start putting out feelers and see what is available. Also, fine-tune your résumé to get noticed. CANCER – Jun 22/Jul 22 Cancer, while success brings you many things, it can feel lonely at the top. Make some time to reconnect and hang out with friends this week. LEO – Jul 23/Aug 23 Leo, listen more than you speak in the coming days. You can learn so much more by remaining quiet and taking it all in, and others will appreciate your attentiveness. VIRGO – Aug 24/Sept 22 Virgo, after an exciting event, life may seem a little mundane for a while. Happiness is what you make of it. Try a new hobby or make some new friends.
LIBRA – Sept 23/Oct 23 Expand your social circles and you may meet some influential new people, Libra. This can only help your reputation and open up new doors to various opportunities. SCORPIO – Oct 24/Nov 22 Scorpio, take control of a situation that comes to light this week. No one else seems capable of taking the reins but you. Chances are you will be an excellent leader. SAGITTARIUS – Nov 23/Dec 21 Sagittarius, you may be unable to keep everything organized this week. Don’t fret, as you need not be in complete control at every moment. CAPRICORN – Dec 22/Jan 20 Capricorn, you may be inspired to do something creative but don’t know where to begin. Pisces may be a good source of inspiration. You can work on a project together. AQUARIUS – Jan 21/Feb 18 Aquarius, make the necessary changes in your life to put primary goals back on target. These may be career or fitness goals or even plans to increase family time. PISCES – Feb 19/Mar 20 Pisces, this week may start off a little differently than most, but by midweek you will find your groove. 1022
