Community mourns 21-year-old Barrhaven native killed in Osgoode crash Dylan Little was on his way to work for his first day at a new job when his car hit a pickup truck

By Jeff Morris

Dylan Little was on his way to work on the first day of his new job when he was killed in an Osgoode collision. For more on Dylan Little and how Barrhaven has come together to support the Little family, please see page 6.

A 21-year-old man Barrhaven man was killed in a two-vehicle collision on Snake Island Road between Nixon and Doyle Roads in Osgoode Mon. Oct. 25.

The driver was pronounced dead at the scene of the crash, which happened at 7:20 a.m. The vehicle he was driving collided with a pick-up truck carrying a trailer.

The driver and passenger in the truck sustained minor injuries.

Cindy Little, who lives in Kemptville now but who is well-known in the community as a longtime Barrhaven resident as a personal trainer and

a businesswoman, announced in a Facebook post Wednesday (Oct. 27) that the victim in the crash was her son.

“Our 21 yr old son, Dylan James Darren Little, passed away on Monday, Oct 25th,” the post said. “It pains us to share this on FB, but the reality is there are too many people to call.”

According to Little, her son was on his way to his first day of work at a new job. She wrote that he died instantly when his car collided with a pickup truck pulling a trailer.

“As any parent can imagine, it is your worst nightmare to lose a child,” Little wrote. “I was awake when he left for work that

day and I said as he left, ‘have a good day’. Little did I know it would be his last day and my last words to him. I still can’t believe it.”

Dylan Little grew up in Barrhaven and graduated from St. Mother Teresa High School. For years, he worked part time at Ross’ Your Independent Grocer.

He is survived by his sister, Amy, and his parents, Cindy and Darren.

“Dylan was a beautiful, fit, funny and a carefree son,” his mother wrote.

“He was hardworking and did well in school. He took welding in college and had an application in to do a welding trade in the Canadian Armed Forces.

That trade was full so he

did 2 jobs while going to school.

“His co-workers at Equinelle Golf Club and everyone he worked with raved about his strong work ethic and how much they liked Dylan. He had a great reputation amongst the staff and golfing community at our new home in Kemptville.”

Little’s Facebook post had close to 1,000 comments with one day. She expressed her thanks to family and close friends for their support during this difficult time.

The Barrhaven Independent would like to extend the most heartfelt condolences to the Little family during this difficult time.

increased speeding and stunt drivers: This summer the Ottawa Police Service (OPS) implemented a program called “Operation Noisemaker” to tackle these issues which are occurring in all Ottawa neighbourhoods. It has been very successful in levying multiple fines, charges and seizures of vehicles. This is a province-wide, if not Canada wide, issue since the beginning of the pandemic – fewer cars on the road facilitates speeding and stunt driving. The issue of noisy vehicles needs to be addressed by the province and legislation instituted to prevent the sale of muffler modification kits.

The greatest problem facing the city is the shortage

of traffic officers available in the overall city and the ability to provide service to every neighbourhood experiencing these problems.

Below are slides that show the issue of declining numbers of officers per 100,000 residents, increased service demands and the fact that Ottawa has the largest surface area of all major cities in Canada since amalgamation.

The OPS and city are also dealing with budget issues.

The OPS budget is a shrinking portion of the overall municipal budget and has been for several years. (9.8% in 2016 to 9.5% in 2021).

Inflationary pressures have increased between 3.6% to 25% and COVID pandemic created added financial pressure. There has also been a concerted effort by Social Services Communities and organizations to freeze the OPS budget to provide

greater funding available to mental health and social services which creates additional stresses on budget and services.

Councilor Harder constantly advocates for better services but when there is no staff to deal with the entire city, it is difficult to change things. As Ottawa citizens, you have the right to advocate for more and better services directly to the Ottawa Police Services Board who are responsible for the policing in Ottawa. The OPS Board Executive Director can be contacted at: krista. ferraro@ottawa.ca Your complaints are being heard and acted upon to the best of everyone’s ability considering all the above.

The Councilor will continue to advocate and address these issues until we have an adequate process to deal with everything.

Committee report calls for plan to extend life of Trail Road landfill Barrhaven Independent Staff The City of Ottawa has accepted a report by the Standing Committee on Environmental Protection, Water and Waste Management on expanding the capacity of the Trail Road Landfill.

The report calls for council to direct staff to develop a Landfill Life Calculation Methodology to use more predictive indicators, to accurately assess the remaining life of the Trail Waste Facility Landfill for use in long term planning for Solid Waste Services.

It also calls for council to direct staff to investigate and report back on the feasibility of expanding the capacity at the Trail Waste Facility Landfill.

The Trail Road landfill began receiving waste in May 1980 and was initially expected to receive waste for 20 years – until 2000; however, the City has successfully extended its lifespan through the expansion of airspace, development of new waste cells and incremental improvements in diversion policies. While the Trail Waste Facility Landfill primarily accepts curbside residential waste, it also accepts some waste from the general public, the Construction and Demolition sector, and the Industrial, Commercial and Institutional (IC&I) sector.

The cost of establishing a new landfill could be in the range of $100 - $200 million and could take up to 15 years before becoming fully oper-

ational.

Based on the Long-Term Waste Management Needs Assessment Analysis conducted as part of the 2021 Solid Waste Master Plan Phase 2 report it is estimated that there is approximately 30 per cent capacity remaining at the Trail Waste Facility Landfill (based on the 2019 Annual Monitoring Report and updated annually). This, in conjunction with staff’s review of disposal trends, determined that if the City maintains status quo with regard to waste reduction and diversion efforts, the Trail Waste Facility Landfill is expected to reach capacity between 2036 to 2038.

Recognizing that the landfill is reaching capacity sooner than previously thought, the Solid Waste Master Plan may fall short of meeting the goal of extending the life of the landfill beyond the 30-year term of the Plan. To address this, staff committed to developing a focused Residual Waste Management Strategy (RWMS) to optimize the remaining airspace available and reduce the amount of waste going to landfill in the short to medium-term, while longer term strategies will continue to be implemented as part of the Solid Waste Master Plan.

Developing a Residual Waste Management Strategy The RWMS outlines the framework to explore the possibility of implementing a combination of policies, programs, and mechanisms,

all which have been previously identified through the SWMP Long-Term Waste Management Needs, to reduce or divert the amount of waste sent to the landfill for disposal. The goal of the RWMS is to identify shortterm opportunities to divert waste from the Trail Waste Facility Landfill and continue to make operational improvements at the site in order to preserve, to every extent possible, the remaining capacity of the landfill.

Each opportunity identified in the strategy will be quantified based on the impact, including considering the expected potential for preserving capacity, the environmental impact and the financial implicationsof implementation.

The proposed RWMS identifies six specific opportunities that can be actioned in the short term (1-3 years) including: 1. Limiting types of waste received at the Trail Waste Facility Landfill, specifically bulky and non-residential waste received at the gate.

2. Reviewing tipping fees, specifically exploring a tipping fee strategy that would create an incentive to reduce the waste disposal of difficult to manage items.

3. Redirecting residential waste to private disposal facilities.

4. Continuing to make operational improvements to increase the quantity of waste that can be deposited within the approved contours of the Landfill.

5. Increasing awareness of the value of the Trail

The Trail Road landfill site has a projected 16-17 years left of service.I

Waste Facility Landfill through public education and outreach.

6. Designing the framework for a future residual waste management technologies pilot program.

Each of the opportunities will be developed in a way that remains flexible and adaptable to ensure changes in waste management such as evolving legislation, consumer trends, climate change, and new and emerging technologies are considered.

Developing a Landfill Life Calculation Methodology It was expected that the Master Plan process Solid Waste is currently undertaking would identify areas that need improvement based on evolving industry best practices.

As previously stated, the Needs Assessment Analysis conducted as part of Phase 2 of the Master Plan identified that the Annual Monitoring Report methodology currently used by the City to estimate landfill lifespan is not suitable for use in long term planning policy. The AMR calculation doesn’t consider

factors such as evolving landfill operational practices (compaction or use of cover), population growth, expansion of diversion programs, and increased diversion or changing consumption habits.

Now that the need has been identified, work needs to be done to develop a methodology to estimate landfill life which will include an integrated, scenario-based calculation that is more suitable for planning purposes so that Council can make more informed decisions both with the near-term opportunities to preserve life at the Trail Waste Facility Landfill and in consideration of future policy recommendations as part of the SWMP. Staff propose retaining an industry expert to review landfill life expectancy frameworks and adopt a methodology for estimating remaining landfill life to be used for planning purposes that estimates a more appropriate applicable range of remaining years. This methodology will calculate landfill life as a range which is critical to reflecting the dynamic

nature of landfill operations, and the many variables that can impact available airspace into the future and can be readily updated as policies are considered and developed.

Exploring Expanding the Trail Road Waste Facility The Trail Waste Facility Landfill is a significant Cityowned and community asset and must be utilized to the greatest extent possible. Extending and optimizing the capacity of the Trail Waste Facility Landfill was identified as a goal of the SWMP and a future need through the Needs Assessment analysis process of the SWMP. This goal was identified in recognition that this is an important community asset, especially in light of the fact that overall landfill capacity available across the Province is diminishing, with most recent estimates highlighting that province-wide landfill capacity could be depleted in the next 15 years. Staff will investigate and report on the feasibility, cost, and timeframe to expand the capacity within the Trail Waste Facility Landfill property.

Elevation Park Public Consultation

The concept plan for the Elevation Park new park development project is now up for public consultation on the

City’s public engagement website: Engage Ottawa. Please note that the end of the comment period is posted as of November 15th, 2021.

The park is generally located within The Ridge subdivision: west of Borrisokane Road and north of Barnsdale Road, in Barrhaven (Ward3).

Message from the Roads and Parking Services Department:

“Residents who are able to are asked to please clear their local catch basins of leaves and debris to allow water to drain from the roads.”

Fall leaves are beautiful while on the trees, but when those leaves start to fall and cover our catch basins, we can expect trouble. During heavy rain, leaves can block our catch basins causing water pooling on roads.

Residents who are able to are asked to please clear their

local catch basins of leaves and debris to allow water to drain from the roads. Catch basins can be located by looking for the yellow “T” marked on the roadway. Locations can also be found by visiting Ottawa.ca.

In some communities, residents will notice that rainwater drains more slowly due to inlet control devices. Shaped like an hourglass, these devices prevent too much stormwater from entering the system all at once causing overflows. The rain should drain naturally from the road within a few hours.

Automated Speed Enforcement cameras in school zones

The City is expanding its Automated Speed Enforcement (ASE) program by gradually adding 15 new camera locations over the next year, which will be installed near school zones to protect vulnerable road users – especially daycare and school-aged children.

Signage announcing the installment of ASE cameras will be posted in October at

these three locations: • Greenbank Road from Jockvale Road to Half Moon Bay • St. Laurent Boulevard from Noranda Avenue to Clarke Avenue • Bearbrook Road from Centrepark Drive to Innes Road In accordance with provincial regulations, warning signs will be posted at these new ASE locations for 90 days before any tickets can be issued.

The first three locations are expected to be operational by mid-January 2022. Like the red-light cameras, ASE tickets are issued to the vehicle plate holder, not the driver. Only a monetary fine is issued without any loss of demerit points.

The other new locations scheduled to have warning signage and have ASE cameras installed over the next year include: • Tenth Line Road from Amiens Street to Des Epinettes Avenue • Abbott Street east from Moss Hill trail to Shea Road

• Kanata Avenue from Goulbourn Forced Road to Walden Drive • Stittsville Main Street from Bandelier Way to Hazeldean Road • Woodroffe Avenue from Georgina Drive to Highway 417 • Greenbank Road from Harrison Street to Banner Road • Fisher Avenue from Deer Park Road to Kintyre Private • Alta Vista Drive from Ayers Avenue to Ridgemont Avenue • Crestway Drive from Oldfield Street to Hathaway Drive • Chapman Mills Drive from Beatrice Drive to Meadgate Gate • Abbeyhill Drive from Aldburn Place to Sherwood Street • Bridgestone Drive from Sunnybrooke Drive to Granite Court After the Province of Ontario’s Bill 65 – Safer School Zone Act – introduced the use of Automated Speed Enforcement, Council approved the launch of a year-long pilot project in July 2020 at eight

priority school zone locations, where radar data was collected.

One year after the pilot project has been implemented, 101,778 tickets were issued from mid-July 2020 to midJuly 2021 and generated approximately $5.4 million in revenue. The revenue generated from the Automated Speed Enforcement program will be reinvested into the City’s Safer Roads Ottawa program, which uses education, engineering and enforcement to promote greater road safety for all road users.

Data showed that ASE had a positive impact on driver speed and safety on average at all eight locations. Benefits from the program include: • 200 per cent increase in compliance with the speed limit • 11 per cent decrease at which 85 per cent of the traffic is travelling at or below the speed limit • 72 per cent decrease in drivers traveling at 15 km/h over the speed limit

INDEPENDENT Editorial

Doug Ford running out of time to get spending under control The clock is ticking on Ontario Premier Doug Ford. He promised Ontarians “the party is over with taxpayers’ money.” Now he needs to keep his promise to get spending under control before time runs out and the next election starts.

While some may argue that Ford has not had a chance to fix the province’s financial problems due to the pandemic, the Progressive Conservative government increased spending by $5 billion during its first year in office.

How can Ford prove to Ontarians that he really can stand up for taxpayers?

There are at least four key moves the Premier and his government can make.

First, restrain spending.

The pandemic showed that our health-care system needs some improvements.

But that doesn’t excuse the soaring government spending Ontarians have seen in nearly every other area of government.

Two years ago, the Ford government spent a total of $164.8 billion. This year, it plans to spend $186.1 billion.

Any increased spending, other than in health and long-term care, should be temporary and pandemic related. If the Ford government reduces spending to pre-pandemic levels in ministries other than health and long-term care, taxpayers could save $15.2 billion.

That would go a long way in eliminating the province’s $33.1 billion deficit.

Second, Ford needs to cut taxes to keep his election promises.

Ford promised to lower the second income tax bracket by 20 per cent. That could save an Ontario taxpayer up to $827 a year. For hardworking Ontarians trying to make ends meet amid rising costs of living, that money could go a long way.

That one tax-cutting promise would cover over a month’s worth of groceries for a family of four, even at today’s inflated food prices.

Third, the premier needs to end corporate welfare, once and for all.

Ford spoke against corporate welfare during the 2018 election campaign, but his government handed over nearly $300 million to the Ford Motor Company for factory renovations, even though Ford is a wealthy company on the Fortune 500 list.

Finally, we need to end political welfare.

Ford told Ontarians that giving $12 million a year of taxpayer money to political parties with no strings attached was wrong.

“I do not believe the government should be taking money from hardworking taxpayers and giving it to political parties,” Ford said just three years ago.

Ford still has time to redeem himself.

By pursuing these four policy avenues, Ford can show that he still intends to fight for everyday Ontarians.

With only months left before the next election, it’s time for Ford to get cracking.

Jay Goldberg is the Interim Ontario Director for the Canadian Taxpayers Federation.

Lack of planning time mothballs Barrhaven Santa Claus Parade until next year

By Charlie Senack While Santa Claus parades have been given the green light to go ahead, Barrhaven’s annual Christmas parade won’t be happening due to a lack of time.

Parades in Ontario were initially told festivities could not take place since social distancing and mask wearing would be hard to enforce admits fears of another wave of the COVID-19 pandemic.

But on October 28, the province changed its tune, and announced large-scale outdoor events could resume immediately and at full capacity. Masks however would still need to be worn if a distance of six feet could not be maintained.

Proof-of-vaccination will continue to be required in outdoor settings where the capacity is 20,000 or more, and outdoor social gatherings will also continue to be capped at 100 people for the time being.

Dawn Lilly, who organizes the Barrhaven Santa Claus Parade, said the news came too late for anything to be planned.

“The city said we

couldn’t have it about four weeks ago so we thought that was the end of it,” she told the Barrhaven Independent. “The City has since said that the big parade downtown can happen since the province removed all of the capacity limits but that doesn’t help us now as we have no time to put anything together.”

Lilly says she starts organizing the parade in March, and relies on the support of businesses to help cover the costs. But as they struggled through the pandemic, they have needed to look at alternative options for the future.

Now they are looking for the community’s support.

“Our budget is about $25,000 and we used to have sponsorships from the local businesses but with the hard time they have been having, we weren’t planning to ask them for anything,” she said. “Our plan is to try and make this the parade for the community paid for by the community. We hope to have a GoFundMe or something like that and ask each household for a donation to help pay for it each year. We hope to remove the sponsorships and

make it a truly community event.”

The Ottawa Professional Firefighters Association who runs both the Help Santa Parade and Santa’s Parade of Lights, say they will throw an event of some kind this December.

Details at this point are un-

known, but they do hope to have a route throughout the entire city “from west to east.”

The city of Kingston has announced they will go ahead with their annual evening parade of lights starting at 5:00 pm on November 20, and the Town-

ship of Renfrew is also celebrating Christmas with a parade this year. Because of COVID, the floats will be stationary, and parked on Raglan Street in front of town hall. Their parade will take place on Saturday, December 4, from 3 p.m. to 8 p.m.

While Barrhaven won’t have a parade this year, there is hope Christmas festivities of some kind will take place in the community. Discussions are already underway to bring the spirit of the holidays back into the community once again.

Barrhaven shops and restaurants looking to fill vacant jobs

Local Ottawa businesses that managed to survive the worst of the pandemic shutdowns are now being tested, again. As our world slowly opens up and more of us are venturing back out to shop and eat, local establishments anxious to welcome us back are facing a shortage of employees. Like you, I have seen the “Looking to Hire” signs everywhere, from Take Out places to furniture stores and hair salons.

Local businesses are the backbone of our economy.

They provide much needed services, employ our friends and neighbours, contribute to the feel and makeup of our communities and contribute to the tax base.

As the City Councillor for East Barrhaven, Riverside South and Findlay Creek I want to help them in any way I can.

So this week I began visiting local shops and restaurants in Barrhaven to determine what’s really happening. I simply asked owners and managers if they were hiring and if they are having trouble filling vacant jobs. All but a handful told me “yes,” they are desperate to find good

people for both full-time and part-time positions.

One owner told me he is working long days and pressing family to help, to the point that everyone is exhausted. Everyone complained that ads for jobs go answered. They’re in a terrible bind, trying to maintain and possibly grow their businesses to make up for two very lean years during the pandemic, but they can’t because no one wants to work. What’s going on?

The latest unemployment number for Canada is 6.9 per cent, an improvement from when COVID cost the economy three million jobs.

There are plenty of people out of work, but it’s possible many have not started ser-

iously looking to return to the workforce. Several business owners have pointed to government programs introduced in 2020 to help laid off workers - saying they de-incentivized returning to the workforce.

The Canadian Emergency Response Benefit (CERB) ended recently, on Oct. 23rd.

Some employers I spoke to speculate that many people still have health concerns or viewed the world pandemic as reason to re-evaluate their lives and career paths. Still others raise their concerns that potential workers don’t want to work nights, or weekends for a variety of reasons. One manager simply stated “ their work demands don’t meet the needs of my store.”

I’m from a generation that felt lucky to have a job; we were the ones who had to be flexible or be let go. But that’s another topic - for another day.

As we enter the Christmas rush, one of the most lucrative times of year for stores and restaurants, there is real fear among business owners they won’t be able to capitalize because of staff shortages.

Government aid packages and tax breaks from the municipal government won’t help with this problem.

I’m attempting to draw more attention to it. I’m compiling lists of stores in Gloucester South-Nepean that are hiring and putting it out on social media.

If someone is looking for work just maybe some opportunity will catch their interest. Seriously, anyone willing to work is in the driver’s seat today.

As someone who has worked since age 14, at a variety of jobs. tree planting, cleaning, grocery clerk, I can’t say enough about how valued I always felt and how working, learning and earning money shaped me, and I know many of you reading this feel the same way.

Please check my Facebook page, over the coming weeks and share the job prospects with others. Remember we need local businesses to not just survive, but to thrive.

We’re still all in this together.

Small businesses getting a helping hand from the City in their toolkits to help out, I am proud that we were one of the first cities to consider and implement a Small Business Property Tax Subclass.

Eligible properties will automatically receive the new discount based on eligibility criteria related to property use, property size, and extensive consultation with key business organizations.

On October 13, City Council approved the new tax subclass, providing small businesses at eligible properties with a permanent 15% reduction in property taxes phased in over two years at 7.5% per year.

The new tax will benefit 5,800 properties or over 10,000 small businesses, in recognition of the con-

By Jim Watson, Mayor of Ottawa I’ve heard people say that I would go to the opening of an envelope, alluding to the fact that I love to congratulate small business owners on an important milestone and thank them for investing in our city.

Running a small business is one of the biggest risks someone can take on in life, and it can be challenging at the best of times. Add a pandemic to the equation and it makes things nearly impossible. Lockdowns, talent shortages, constant rule changes… You name it, Ottawa’s small business owners have been through it all.

Storage in Arnprior. Unfortunately, the location has closed down since I went back to school, so I haven’t worked there since.”

Pet Peeve: “My absolute biggest pet peeve is when someone walks into the room I’m in, and does not close the door on their way out! I can not explain how much it bothers me, or why it bothers me so badly, but it just does.”

Favourite Subjects: “Law and Biology. I have both of them in my schedule for later on in my school year. They are very different in course content, but I actually enjoyed both of them a lot. Law was a new subject to me, but it did not take much time before I began to enjoy it. Biology on the other hand was especially interesting to me last year, because we focused a lot on viruses and vaccines. It gave me a better understanding, and the ability to add on to conversations about Covid-19 and vaccine development.”

Part-time Work: “I worked as a U-Haul receptionist over the summer at Kenwood U-Haul and

signments, but I do listen to podcasts. My favourite podcast is called Mile Higher produced by Kendall Rae. It’s a true crime focused podcast, which discusses unsolved missing persons and murder cases.”

What is your greatest accomplishment?

“Becoming an aunt to my nephew Leo. More specifically, becoming The Cool Aunt to him. I have never found anyone cuter, or loved anyone harder than that munchkin. He is a little over a year and a half old, and has walking (or running away) down pat. His favourite pastime is to open and close doors, and I’m more than happy to sit with him while he does it.”

School Activities: “I am an Athletic Council Member, which includes attend a meeting once a week, design and sell Jag Swag – our school merchandise, organize athletic events – like Sports Buyouts, fundraise by selling popcorn. With the pandemic, we have adapted with online meetings, organization of entertaining Goo-

gle meets for students (We had an ex-Redblacks player on.) I am currently playing on the boys varsity tackle football team, and I will play on the senior girls volleyball team, the varsity girls touch football team, and the co-ed and beach volleyball teams.”

Other Activities/Interests: “In the summer I play flag football for the Nepean Eagles. I’ve begun the process of trying out for Team Ontario Flag for the spring 2022 season. I used to play high performance volleyball with the Ottawa Maverick Volleyball Club. Although this year, because it was my last year of high school, I would give something new a shot. I tried out for football instead of volleyball, and now I’m on the boys Varsity Tackle Football Team at St Joe’s. I am not going to lie. It was pretty intimidating, being the only girl to make the team, but the boys on my team could not have been more supportive.

Lifting at Capital Strength Training Systems is probably my favourite thing to do. The energy in that gym

is so positive, and it’s time that I look forward to. Between school and football, some weeks are busier than others, but once a week I ensure that I have time to get in there.”

Career Goals: “I’m about to begin the application process to university – focusing on UOttawa, Carleton and Queens.

Scatch is probably the most selfless person I have ever met. If it wasn’t for him, I wouldn’t be enjoying my time at St Joe’s as much as I do. He has a special energy and passion for sports that he brings to every

team he coaches. Scatch makes you want to join a team, simply to get the opportunity to be coached by him. He goes above and beyond for all of his students, and we are so lucky to have him here at St Joe’s.

“Donald Shaw, Athletic trainer at Capital Strength.

Donald is one of the reasons I enjoy working out so much.

He has been a real role mod-

el to me. He has taught me so much about lifting and nutrition. In the gym, or outside of the gym, he inspires me to always work my hardest. He’s always checking in on all of the athletes that go there, just because he cares.

When I told him that I was playing football with boys, he was so excited for me, and has given me so much advice to use on the field.”

Eight local sports figures inducted to the Nepean Sports Wall of Fame The Nepean Sports Wall of Fame inducted eight noteworthy Nepean sport figures this evening at the 2021 Virtual Induction Ceremony, celebrating excellence in local sport.

The class of 2021 represents some of Nepean’s finest athletes, coaches, builders, and the first-ever media member inducted to the Wall of Fame, which is housed at the Nepean Sportsplex. With the eight new inductees, there are now 82 people on the Nepean Sports Wall of Fame.

The virtual ceremony, presented by Mattamy Homes and hosted by Olympian and broadcaster Rosey Edeh, was broadcast on YouTube and remains available to view at www. nswf.ca.

“Congratulations to all our new inductees,” said NSWF board chair Gavin Leishman. “They have made Nepean very proud through their many accomplishments and contributions to sport. Their plaques will be added to the Nepean Sportsplex display to inspire future generations in our sporting community.”

Stuart Schwartz is the first media member to be inducted to the NSWF and has been a staple of the Ot-

tawa sport community since the mid 1990s. Schwartz, known informally as Stuntman Stu, has been a radio host for more than 25 years and was the Ottawa Senators public address announcer for 12 years.

The two athletes inducted onto the Wall of Fame are both former NHL goalies who built successful careers in hockey after their playing days were over.

Barrhaven native Fred Brathwaite played parts of nine seasons in the National Hockey League (NHL) as a goaltender. He later went on to work as goaltender coach for the New York Islanders of the NHL and as a goaltending consultant for Hockey Canada.

Darren Pang played parts of three seasons as a goaltender in the NHL. He was a member of the 1984 Memorial Cup champion Ottawa 67s. He has since worked as a broadcaster and analyst for the St. Louis Blues, NHL Network and TSN. Rene Braendli has been a longstanding member of the local soccer community. A founding member of Ottawa South United, he played a key role in the development of girls’ soccer

in Nepean and Ottawa as a whole.

Cynthia Reid was the co-founder and a longtime coach of the Nepean Skating Club. She was a constant fixture at the rink for more than 40 years and helped build the skating community in Nepean. She coached many talented athletes over the years, including 1985 NSWF inductee and former Canadian champion Janet Morrissey.

Mark Gallant is a longtime hockey referee and dedicated member of the hockey community. He has managed refereeing for both Ottawa District Minor Hockey Association and Hockey Eastern Ontario.

He was also the assistant coach of Canada’s goldmedal-winning ice sledge hockey team at the 2006 Paralympic Games.

Mark Singer has been a member of the Rideau Canoe Club for more than 25 years. During that time, he represented Canada at Junior Worlds and won eight National Championships in sprint canoe. He has since accumulated more than 15 years of coaching experience.

Chris Byrne coached the Nepean Raiders to two Canadian Junior Hockey

League championships before joining the Ottawa 67s. After spending eight seasons with the 67s as coach and general manager, he joined the Los Angeles Kings of the NHL as Director of CHL Scouting.

To learn more about the class of 2021 and see their photos, visit NSWF.ca.

The 2021 NSWF Virtual Induction Ceremony was live streamed virtually due to the COVID-19 pandemic. The link to watch the ceremony will remain available for viewing at NSWF.ca.

All inductee plaques are displayed on the physical Wall of Fame, located in the Nepean Sportsplex lobby. The exhibit is open to the public and represents a tangible permanent collage of significant Nepean sporting accomplishments.
