Glen Cairn family delivers Christmas joy Hamper project helps family celebrate for first time in three years Jessica Cunha
jessica.cunha@metroland.com
Community - An Ottawa family celebrated their first Christmas in three years thanks to the generosity of strangers. When Meggan Larson pulled up to the house on Dec. 21, there were few lights on and no holiday decorations. She learned the husband had been working 70 hours a week just to pay the bills. The weekend before Christmas, the Larson family delivered some holiday joy, along with gifts and the makings of a feast. “We helped a family who literally hadn’t celebrated Christmas in three years because they couldn’t afford it,” said Larson, who collects and dis-
tributes hampers to families in need during the holiday season. “They have older kids. Those kids know that it’s Christmas. When we showed up with gifts, they couldn’t believe it.” For three years now Larson and her husband Rob – along with a host of volunteers – have collected gifts and put together baskets of food for others. “We had so many people give in so many different ways,” she said. The family chooses to distribute the gifts and food items themselves because there are too many restrictions when going through an organization, said Larson. Every tag says “Love, Jesus” because the family’s faith plays a big role in their life and they want to share His love with others.
“As always, we do it in Jesus’ name, especially at this time of year. It’s really important at this time of year that people know it’s not just about the fact that He was born and that He saved the world. It’s so much more than that,” said Larson, who lives in Glen Cairn with her husband and their two children (soon to be three). “He still cares about us. He still cares about all of the little details and he cares enough to orchestrate a whole bunch of strangers to get gifts together and food together to bless families that none of us know. That’s just who He is. He loves everybody.” The hamper project helps people of all faiths, said Larson, adding they help anyone in need anywhere in the city. HUMBLING AND AMAZING
The Larsons chose to give back after a group of Kanata mothers helped the family when Larson was diagnosed with cancer, she said in an earlier interview. The boost they received during the difficult period helped them pull through – and that’s what they hope to do
SUBMITTED
The Larson family and a host of volunteers help deliver some Christmas cheer to families in need on Dec. 21. for other families through the hamper project. The Larsons first stumbled upon the idea to provide hampers after seeing posts online. People were offering holiday dinners or gifts to those who were struggling to make ends meet. The Larsons jumped on board and provided two dinners and gifts for four families in 2011. The following year, she said they helped more than 50
families. This year, the Larsons and countless volunteers helped 34 families – 166 individuals. “It’s really humbling. It’s amazing. It’s so simple to give someone gifts and dinner,” Larson said. “One person told me that her tears of sadness turned to tears of joy when she got her hamper. A few days ago they didn’t have anything for Christmas at all. Now they’ll
have gifts under the tree and a Christmas dinner.” The husband of another family was just diagnosed with cancer and the family was struggling, said Larson. “It just brought joy to their house at a time when everything is up in the air. At least they don’t have to worry about their kids not having anything to open.” Larson said the experience is eye-opening after learning many of the background stories of the families she’s helped. “It’s just a good reminder that everyone’s struggling with something,” she said. “It’s just a good reminder not to be judgemental about people and peoples’ circumstances.” She said she had to thank Dymon Self Storage for providing a large locker to store the goods, and a truck and a driver for free to deliver everything to a wrapping party. “It’s amazing and we’re able to help more people as a result,” said Larson. For more information, search Operation Christmas Spirit on Facebook or email Larson at your.christmas.spirit @gmail.com.

tablish, develop and maintain a support hub for Chinese seniors in Kanata and the surrounding areas. “Chinese New Year is a showcase of their work. We want to show how happy they are, how they’ve conquered coming to a new country and become part of the community here,” said Ho. “They are so excited.” Many of the seniors in the group immigrated to Canada to be closer to their children and grandchildren, don’t know the language or anyone outside their family circle. The Chinese seniors network helps them integrate and meet new people. The mandate of the group is: caring, bridging, integrating and contributing. “It’s a chance (for) the whole community to come together,” said Ho. “This is a great opportunity for people to come out and meet others. What I’m trying to do is being everyone together.” It’s also an opportunity to learn more about the Chinese culture, she added. High school students can receive volunteer hours for helping at the event and sponsorships are still available. Prizes for the lucky card draws are also welcome, said Ho. For more in-
News - A group of seniors are preparing the finishing touches to ring in the Chinese New Year in February. After 2013’s event was such a hit with hundreds of people attending the full-day affair, the Kanata Chinese Seniors Support Centre is looking to replicate the success for the Feb. 2 event. “Everyone can come and enjoy,” said Wen Jean Ho, founder of the support centre. “It’s going to be very exciting. The venue is a lot bigger than last year.” This year, the group has rented three rooms (the gymnasium, the youth room and a multi-purpose room) at the newly opened Richcraft Recreation Complex Kanata. In 2013, the event was held in the upper halls of the Mlacak Centre and quickly filled to capacity. The theme of this year’s event is Chinese inventions and will focus on four main innovations: paper, print, firecrackers and the compass. “We will have games related to all four of these inventions,” said Ho. “It’s really becoming a festival.” The celebration will also feature a number of traditional music and dance performances, Chinese crafts and art, cultural displays, food and more to welcome the Year of the Horse, which represents compassion, said Ho. “The optimistic nature of 2014 allows us to cope with financial hardships in the belief that good fortune will soon be on its way. The Year of the Horse is kind-hearted in nature promising to provide us with supportive friends, ready to help us. “The horse is a very good year.” The Kanata Chinese Seniors Support Centre is a non-profit organization that aims 7-701 to es-

2014 Walk for Memories aims to be biggest yet Event to take place Jan. 26 Jessica Cunha jessica.cunha@metroland.com
News - The 2014 Walk for Memories in support of the Alzheimer Society of Ottawa and Renfrew County aims to be the biggest and best one yet. With the number of participants hovering around the 600-person mark in 2013, not to mention just over $260,000 raised in funds for the society, the organizing committee is hoping the event draws even higher numbers. “We just keep setting our sights a little higher,” said Tracey Pagé, who has been on the committee since the beginning of the event in 1996. The Kanata woman was instrumental in creating the Walk for Memories, which has steadily grown over the years. That first walk raised
$22,000 and saw 175 participants. The goal for the 2014 walk is to have more than 600 people participate either in teams or individually and raise $275,000 for the Alzheimer Society. “What these funds do is they support people in the community who are living with dementia,” she said. The funds also help provide for caregivers. “It stays in the community for support, education and resources,” said Pagé, who grew up in Manotick. “Anyone who’s had a family member with dementia, they know there’s a lot of care required.” FAMILY FUN
The 2014 Walk for Memories will take place on Sunday, Jan. 26, from 9 a.m. to noon at the Carleton University Fieldhouse. The event is held annually on the last Sunday in January at the conclusion of Alzheimer Awareness Month. “It’s fun for the whole fam-
ily,” said Pagé. “It’s got that unique element. You can give a little bit back with some exercise and some fun.” Last year’s walk saw around 60 teams participate, many decked out in team costumes or colour-coordinated outfits. Ages ranged from infants to grandparents, said Pagé. There are lanes for all speeds, she added, so wheelchairs and strollers are more than welcome. Participants who raise $100 or more will also receive a free T-shirt. The event will also boast a number of new features, including a youth-led activity centre. “We wanted to have an activity centre run by the youth and driven by the youth,” said Pagé. “It’ll be educational and an activity at the same time so there’s something other than walking.” A memory board and slideshow will also be set up during the walk. Attendees are invited to submit a photo by email of who they’re walking
for ahead of time, or they can post a photo or phrase on the message board the day of the event. “We like to see people’s faces lighting up when they see their family member’s pictures of who they’re walking for,” said Pagé. The Sons of Scotland pipe band will lead the first lap around the track, and Ozone and Free Association will provide live musical entertainment. “It’s a premiere indoor
*
fundraising walk,” said Pagé. “If in January you’re looking to get out and get some exercise for a good cause, you’ll have fun and everybody wins out in the end.” Pagé is an accountant with Collins Barrow Ottawa LLP in Bells Corners, one of the main sponsors of the event every year. “We want to be behind the Alzheimer’s society, where we can contribute most,” she said. “We see the good that the Alzheimer Society does with
the dollars they have. We’ve gotten to know these people; we’ve gotten to know the participants and that’s important to us. And we enjoy it too.” Every year a number of employees and retired accountants volunteer their time to help co-ordinate the walk, said Pagé. To register, visit walkformemories.ca.

Rediscovering the winter running habit for 2014
H
BRYNNA LESLIE Capital Muse numb from the feet up when I’m involved in an interesting article and forget to move). The next day, I ran into my neighbor, recently returned from a 15-km run in a bitter cold wind. He’s about 15 years my senior. I asked him about equipment required for winter running. I was expecting --- and maybe sort of hoping – he’d tell me that I required a lot of expensive gear, something that would give me an excuse to stay on the couch. But he made everything simple and inexpensive. He told me what was ideal to wear and then he showed me what he was actually wearing – a basic fleece, a hat and his regular shoes. Three things I already own. So maybe I have just been making excuses. And believe me, I’ve had a ton of excuses – everything from being too tired, to having a cheese hangover after a ladies’ night in. You know,
when your body feels so fat from eating cheese that you can’t possibly do the best thing for yourself, which is a likely exercise. But in that selfdefeating way, your body just tells you to eat more cheese – for breakfast. But Jan. 1 has been and gone. I’m pretty sure all that cheese and sitting has caused me to gain five pounds. To be honest, I’ve been too scared to step on the scale. What I do know is that I’ve been opting for jeans with a little stretch in the waistline, rather than the skinny jeans I had been wearing following four months of steady running. Why is it so much easier to gain five pounds than to lose it? So no more excuses. Auld Lang Syne has been sung. I’m going to get out there and see if running in sub-zero temperatures on ice kills me or makes me stronger. I’ll let you know if I make it beyond mid-February.

appy New Year. Have you made your resolutions yet? I typically don’t bother making resolutions at New Year. I like to start early – in November – or wait until February when everyone else has failed, having buried their resolutions in that extra-long to-do list. As it turns out, I wasn’t organized enough this year to start early. I didn’t even have my Christmas shopping done on Dec. 24, truth be told, and now I find myself too impatient to wait six weeks. So here it is: I resolve to become a winter runner. This may sound easy since I wrote about building myself up to a five kilometre run last April. (You’ve heard of the couch to five kilometres? That was me, pushing a baby stroller). But after forcing myself to run three times each week, somewhere around midNovember I gave it all up. The reason I stopped was threefold. First, with the time change, it was getting harder to run first thing in the morning. I kept it up for a few weeks, but then I caught a cold, so I had a forced break while my respiratory system recovered. Ten days later, just as I was safely out of the running habit, the mercury dropped to -20 C with the wind chill and I found myself both ill-equipped and uninterested in torturing my body. A Christmastime haircut and a chance encounter with a neighbor -- who’s a running fanatic -- has changed my mind. First, the hair stylist, in her fifties, was fit as a fiddle. Being the nosey journalist I am, I asked her what she did for exercise. “Running,” she said. “I’ve been running regularly for 30 years. It’s the only thing that always fits in my schedule, wherever I am in the world and whatever I’m doing. “ This was impressive. I told her how I’d fallen out of the running habit. I included all my well-rehearsed excuses in an attempt to get sympathy. “Get back into it,” she encouraged me. “There’s nothing better than running 21 km when it’s -21 C outside.” Woah, 21 km? Her goals were way more ambitious than mine. I was really just looking to get off the couch again. (My biggest fear is dying of a blood clot in my mid-thirties due to sitting at my desk all day, where my legs tend to go

Looking back, looking forward
T
he year 2013 brought some important news to Ottawa. Light-rail is now underway although it will take many years before we get to ride the rails. After so many years of stops and starts, getting the project started for real is a major accomplishment. The redevelopment of Lansdowne Park will be completed much sooner, so we have that to look forward to in 2014. The RedBlacks start play on a brand new field this summer and the Ottawa Fury will kick off pro soccer at Lansdowne too. That’s good for everyone – not just sports fans – because sports bring fans into the city on a regular basis and they spend money on accommodations and entertainment. It may be too much to wish for the Senators to win a Stanley Cup this spring given their current form, but there’s no doubt that with a little more experience the team could be good to challenge for the Cup in 2015 and for years to come. For political junkies, we’ll have a municipal election in 2014 and a provincial election is a real possibility. There’s a possible trifecta in the offing if Stephen Harper decides to go to the polls too. Our wish list for 2014 includes a temperate winter,
with days and evenings just right for a skate down the Rideau Canal. An early spring would be welcome after that. We’d also like to see the city, province, federal government and the NCC come up with a plan that fixes truck issues in the core and causes the least possible disruption for the citizens of Ottawa. And speaking of bridges, we can only hope to see the city complete one bridge this year. Maybe it will be the Strandherd-Armstrong span across the Rideau River in the south end or maybe it will be the pedestrian bridge over the Airport Parkway. One would be nice so we’re not still hoping this time next year. Other construction plans call for infill in many neighbourhoods. While no one may want a highrise near home, the city’s plan to make the best possible use of land within the Greenbelt – and especially around transit hubs – deserves support. Infill sure beats sprawl beyond our current urban boundary. The continued strength of our annual festivals is worth wishing for too. From the Tulip Festival to blues and jazz fests, the events are what make it great to live in this city. Bring on 2014.

Taking on a new perspective for 2014
S
ix things I’m going to do next year: 1. Take the bus. Retired people get out of the habit of getting on the bus, but it’s crazy that I spend so much time driving around looking for parking spaces or paying large amounts to parking garages. It makes me grouchy. Meanwhile there are a lot of places I can get to easily on the bus. Getting downtown or visiting somebody at the hospital is a breeze. Even with fare hikes, I save money and get there in a better frame of mind. It might even be community-minded of me: if more people use the system, the system will thrive and improve. Plus, Ottawa will have a sparkling new system by the time I’m 130, so I might as well get used to it. 2. Hear more live music. Just when you discover a new favourite club, it’s gone, replaced by a spa or a money mart, depending on which part of town you’re in. That’s because people aren’t turning up, except maybe in festival season. It’s always tempting to stay home and catch your music on iTunes or YouTube or whatever, but there’s something about live music and there’s something about supporting local musicians. As an occasional musi-

If we want places to play, we have to help those places stay in business — particularly those that pay a decent wage. 3. Go to more SkyHawks games. It’s very good basketball, high-scoring and exciting. Plus, it’s a good family atmosphere. Afternoon games have mascots and child-oriented entertainers to add to the action. There’s more music than you need during the play, but that’s life. And the Canadian Tire Centre is way too large: even a respectable-sized basketball crowd is lost in there. Also, the Canadian Tire Centre is where the Canadian Tire Cen-

tre is — namely, on the outskirts of nowhere. But the small crowds do mean that parking and getting in and out are far easier than during Senators games. When Lansdowne is completed, the SkyHawks will move down to the Civic Centre, which will be more intimate. But they need to survive. The principle of use it or lose it applies here as well. Remember, we had some pretty good baseball in this town and lost it at least in part because we didn’t get out to see it. 4. Spend more time at the National Gallery. Because it’s always there and the exhibitions are on for lengthy periods of time, it’s easy for me to put off going to the Gallery. But there’s no way it should be taken for granted. The building is a masterpiece and the collections are, for lack of a better phrase, world-class. Why wouldn’t I be there all the time? You could apply the same reasoning to the National Arts Centre and the War Museum, which are not as appreciated or as patronized as they should be. Living in a government town does that to you: you don’t appreciate what you have. 5. Cut down, at least a bit, on complaining. This flows from the previous point. We don’t appreciate what we have and we think our
problems, which are often problems of affluence — the second computer doesn’t connect to the WiFi! — actually matter. Meanwhile, there are people with real problems who aren’t getting enough of our attention. 6. Don’t buy a musical toothbrush. I saw this advertised on TV, more than a few times, while watching small bits of a Christmas movie between large bits of commercials. It’s battery-operated and there’s a selection of tunes it will play, in order to entice you or your children or your grandchildren to brush their teeth more often. I have decided against it.

City offers more transit to Kanata, but not light rail NOVEMBER

ovember is Woman Abuse Prevention Month and Metroland Media looks at various aspects of violence against women in partnership with the Western Ottawa Community Resource Centre. The barriers older women face when deciding to leave an abusive relationship, the effects on children, a program to educate youth, and the white ribbon campaign round out the series.
T
he city is squeezing a little more transit into Kanata under its new plan – but not light rail. During a discussion about the draft transportation master plan on Nov.4, city staff revealed an altered plan that would see a bus Transitway in the median of March Road extended farther to end at Solandt Road instead of Carling Avenue. The changes would also add a $25-million new section of Transitway along Highway 417 through an alreadybuilt tunnel under the Valour Bridge to connect to Terry Fox station. The changes remove a plan to create another off-ramp to separate buses from traffic at the Eagleson/March/Campeau intersection.

aying the needs of businesses are more important than the city’s needs, Kanata North Coun. Marianne Wilkinson was successful in getting the city to reconsider building-height limits in the tech park. The height-restriction policy for business parks that aren’t near rapid transit was adopted as part of a five-year update to the city’s Official Plan, which council approved on Nov. 26. The tech park and also the Kanata South Business Park were exempted from those policies.

It was a natural step for Ford to move in this direction based on their success with their ‘active park-assist’ system which is available in several models to help drivers win the battle of parallel parking.

The system takes over if the driver fails to steer or brake following system warnings. The system was featured on the Ford Edge Concept that debuted recently at the Los Angeles Auto Show. “The obstacle avoidance research project is a prime example of technologies we are developing to benefit drivers whose Ford vehicles are equipped with the technology and others who share the road with them,” said Paul Mascarenas, chief technical officer and vice president, Ford research and innovation. “We are optimistic that Mess through our research and findings, we will be able to reduce these No Funnel of rear-end collisions.” •types Fill anything without worrying about overspills

by Brian Turner
The staff and management of the Benson Group, including their automotive specialist teams at over 100 locations in Ontario and Quebec wish to extend their warmest season’s greetings to all their customers for a very Merry Christmas and a Safe and Happy New Year.
the fuel tank near full will reduce the likelihood of gasoline or diesel condensation problems and will add extra weight for improved traction and handling. Please remember posted speed limits are for optimal road and weather conditions only and extra time should be factored in to any winter trek.
With this time of increased travel, busy highways, and less than ideal weather and road conditions, the Benson team wants to remind everyone to plan ahead for trips no matter what the distance. Take extra time to clear all vehicle windows, exterior lights and surfaces of snow and ice. Make sure your auto has plenty of washer fluid, winter tires, and an emergency roadside kit. Pack cargo, luggage, and gifts with care, because, in the event of a collision, anything loose in the passenger compartment can become a fast-moving projectile which can cause injury. Keeping
The Benson automotive stores will be closed on Christmas Day, Boxing Day, and New Year’s Day to allow their staff to enjoy the holiday time with family and loved ones. Your automotive needs are always on the top of the Benson Group’s list and their outlets’ experts will make sure that you have the right part at the right time for the best price available. Roadside emergency kits are available in a variety of types for both commercial and personal use. Please drive safely and give your family the best gift of all; you safe at home to share these special times.

Pan-roasted peppered steak with caramelized leeks is easy and tasty Lifestyle - Sometimes you just crave a great steak, so keep it simple and serve with seasonal leeks and mashed potatoes. Preparation time: 10 minutes. Cooking time: 20 minutes. Roasting time: 10 minutes. Serves two. Ingredients
• 4 ml (3/4 tsp) black peppercorns or very coarsely ground pepper • 1 ml (1/4 tsp) salt (preferably Kosher) • 375 g (12 oz) strip loin or rib eye steak, at least 2.5 centimetres (one inch) thick • 15 ml (1 tbsp) butter • 15 ml (1 tbsp) olive oil • 25 ml (2 tbsp) balsamic vinegar • 1 bunch well washed leeks (white
part only), sliced • 15 ml (1 tbsp) fresh thyme leaves • 5 ml (1 tsp) granulated sugar Preparation
On a cutting board, use the bottom of a frying pan to coarsely crush peppercorns. Sprinkle the peppercorns and salt over both sides of the steak. In a large frying pan (preferably not non-stick), melt half of the butter with half of the oil over medium-high heat until sizzling. Add the steak and reduce heat to medium. Cook the steak until browned, two to three minutes per side. Transfer it to a small baking sheet. Pour the vinegar into the hot
pan, stirring to scrape up any brown bits and pour it over the steak. Bake it in a 200 C (400 F) oven until medium-rare -- about 10 minutes. Let the steak stand loosely covered with foil for about 10 minutes before thinly slicing. Meanwhile, wipe the pan clean and heat the remaining butter and oil over medium heat. Add the leeks and cook, stirring occasionally, until it begins to soften and turn golden, about 10 minutes. Sprinkle the leeks with thyme and sugar, and reduce the heat and cook until bits of the leeks are browned, about two minutes. Serve with steak. Foodland Ontario

Christmas tree a treasured addition to the kitchen t didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t take Mother long after moving to a drafty old log house in the backwoods of Renfrew Country to figure out the parlour was no place for the Christmas tree. With no insulation, storm windows or heat, the room was closed off for the winter, and so the Christmas tree, after much moving of furniture, was crammed into a corner of the kitchen. Father didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t care where it was, as long as it wasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t put up until Christmas Eve, a German custom that was part of his heritage for three generations. Well, it didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t take long for Mother to get rid of that idea too. The tree was hauled in from the bush about two weeks before Christmas,
I
MARY COOK Memories dragged behind the flatbottom sleigh, and allowed to stand in the summer kitchen until the clumps of snow could be taken off its wide-spread branches. And then, with much finagling, it was wired to the window frame on one side, and the downstairs bedroom door on the other.
It was placed in a wash tub of water, in the hope that the heat from the Findlay Oval wouldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t entirely rob the tree of its needles. There was always a mystery to the tree decorations which I could never figure out. Every year, dozens of little tin holders with miniature candles in them were

clamped all over the Christmas tree, but they were never lit. I wondered why on earth we had candles on a tree if they couldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t be glowing at night. Well Mother, with her dread of fire, was the reason. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The whole place would go up like a tinder boxâ&#x20AC;? sheâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d say if I even as much as suggested lighting even a few of them. I would wonder why we even bothered bringing them down from the humpbacked trunk upstairs. It was my sister Audreyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s job to make sure the tub of water under the tree was always full. That meant she had to haul it in from the pump outside, and â&#x20AC;&#x153;while youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re at it,â&#x20AC;? Mother would say, â&#x20AC;&#x153;you might as well fill the reservoir too.â&#x20AC;? The few glass ball decorations Mother had brought from New York, coloured paper loops made by us children, and only the prettiest of Christmas cards which had come through the mail, were placed here and there on the wide sweeping branches. After the tree was up for the holidays, it changed the whole house. I loved the nights when we all sat around the table with the coal-oil lamp sending out dim beams of light and the tinsel, moving gently from
the heat in the kitchen from the stove, made the tree look magical. There were never any gifts under the tree until they mysteriously appeared on Christmas morning, but I would sit with my elbows on the table, and just stare at the wonder of it all. I would picture in my mind what on my list sent to the Ottawa Farm Journal would be left for me by Santa. Would he bring me the doll I had seen in the five and dime store window? What about the real storebought underwear I longed for? So many evenings before Christmas were spent just dreaming of that morning when I would wake to find that Santa hadnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t forgotten us in Northcote after all. And each day, the spruce tree got sparser and sparser. It didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t matter how careful Audrey was about keeping the tub full of water, every night there seemed to be another dustpan full of needles to sweep up and dump into the Findlay Oval. With each dustpan gathered up with the broom, Father could be heard muttering from his rocking chair by the oven door that had Mother listened to him, and waited until Christmas Eve
to put up the tree, it might look half â&#x20AC;&#x153;decentâ&#x20AC;? by the time Christmas morning rolled around. Although I would have loved to have the tree stay up until the New Year rolled in, it rarely lasted until a day or so after Christmas. By then, you could see clear back to the wainscoting along the wall behind it, and we all knew it wouldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t be long until the heat of the stove, confined to the kitchen as it was, the Christmas tree would be as bare as a badger. The tub would be emptied, furniture rearranged, and the only remnants of that most wonderful time of the year would be the needles that seemed to appear out of nowhere for weeks long after the Christmas season was over. Father knew better than to say â&#x20AC;&#x153;I told you so.â&#x20AC;? If he did venture an opinion, Mother would remind him that his job was to look after the barns, hers was to look after the house. My sincere Christmas wishes go out to all our faithful readers. May each of you experience the true meaning of this wonderful time of year, and may you spend it with loved ones around you.

City Councillor, Kanata North LET IT SNOW This winter started with a vengeance, bringing us a lot of snow and then freezing rain. Clearing snow and ice is a difficult and often thankless task, carried out under stressful conditions such as roads clogged with cars, and sidewalks filled with waste containers on pickup day.

Beaverbrook’s Judi Miller uses a mixture of fabric paint and embroidery to create traditional landscapes. The Kanata Civic Art Gallery’s newest exhibit is entitled ‘Points of View’ and will feature a host of artworks by various artists. the background then a sewing machine to free-hand stitch the detail. ARTIST SUBMISSIONS
There is no feature artist at the gallery for the month of January – instead, new members will be juried in during the
first week of the month. New members are juried in by third party artists who do not belong to the gallery. “We have quite a handful of artist submissions for new artists. We’re really excited about that,” said Miller. The Points of View exhibit begins on Jan. 8 and runs until
Feb. 2. The Kanata Civic Art Gallery is located in the Mlacak Centre at 2500 Campeau Dr. While the West District Library is under construction, a temporary entrance is set up at the arena, to the left of the main doors. For more information and hours of operation, visit kanatagallery.ca.

Remember to keep valuables safe in your car by keeping them from view. For example, move valuables to your trunk, but then be sure to park your car in another location in case someone sees you moving valuables around. I once had my car broken into to remove a purse I had placed in the trunk. Never leave your car running and unattended even in cold weather, and don’t leave your keys in the car and lock it, even in your own driveway. Following these recommendations will protect your vehicle and valuables.
Parking Issues - January 16th at 7pm, Richcraft Recreation ComplexKanata, 4101 Innovation. Public consultation with bylaw staff present to discuss issues on Ayton Lane.

SLEDDING HILLS & LOCAL RINKS Enjoy winter by skating on the canal or local rinks or zoom down a sledding hill (go to http://ottawa.ca/en/residents/parks-andrecreation for details). The rinks are maintained by local community associations, so do your part to help keep them in good condition. Sledding hills are not listed in Kanata North, but a good place is at Juanita Snelgrove Park from Sandhill. The Kanata Golf Course can be used for cross-country skiing (avoid green locations), but please don’t sled towards a road. A visit to the Rink of Dreams at City Hall is also a fun outing for your family.

You can help by piling snow on your own property (it’s not only illegal to move it onto the street, but that creates a hazard for pedestrians and motorists), ensuring your snow contractor does the same, and keeping your waste containers off the sidewalk. The next time you’re out clearing snow please recognize the job done for you by those who plough and remove that beautiful white stuff and give them a friendly wave as they drive by.
Youth Futures is a comprehensive 7-month program, offered in English and in French, for low-income high school students. The program includes leadership training, community engagement, mentorship and paid summer employment. The program breaks the cycle of poverty through education. Go to www.youth-futures. com for details and to apply by January 19, 2014.

Falling snow can cause a white out, and poor visibility makes it difficult to see where you’re going. In fact, I once rode with an operator during a storm and I still don’t know how he could see where to put the snow! So, I’d like to thank all of the City staff who work long hours, day and night, to keep our streets and sidewalks safe. Yes, they do fill in our driveways, and until final cleanup comes a sidewalk may end at a pile of snow. But, unlike many other cities, Ottawa’s main roads are opened quickly, and side streets usually within 24 hours.

Art - Everyone has a different point of view – and the public is invited to see the way the Kanata Civic Art Gallery’s artists observe the world this month. The newest exhibit at the non-profit gallery is entitled “Points of View” and will feature a host of artworks by various artists. “What’s really nice about our gallery is there are so many different (types of art),” said gallery member Judi Miller. “We’re all different. Each of us brings a different point of view to our work.” Discussing the exhibit just before Christmas, Miller said she was unsure what she might display but had plans to create some new pieces. “I’m actually going to try and do something over the holidays. We’ll have to see,” she said. “I’m thinking some kind of panorama, a distant vista.” Miller creates her three-dimensional works of art with a mixture of paints and embroidery.

Borough councils off the table for remainder of term Laura Mueller laura.mueller@metroland.com
News - As city council rounds the corner on the final year of its term, Mayor Jim Watson can check almost every single election promise off his list. All but one – reducing the size of city council. “I thought there would be greater support,” Watson said during a yearend chat with the Kanata KourierStandard on Dec. 19. Even though Ottawa has the most elected representatives per capita of any major Canadian city except for Montreal, it’s also a big city, and shrinking council means expanding wards, Watson said. When council voted against his idea in favour of waiting until a scheduled 2015 review of council’s size, with it died another Watson campaign idea that intrgued many community activists: the concept of local “borough councils” made up of citizens who could advise the city on how decisions would affect their areas. “My plan, because I announced it at the same time, was a package deal,” Watson said. “With that went the idea of the borough council, because I saw them as intertwined,” he said. The purpose of making council smaller was to transfer some of that power to “smaller, regional blocs,” he said. “I’ll have to decide over the course of the next several months as I put together my platform for 2014 where I am going to go on that issue,” Watson said. He’s still of the opinion that a borough council system wouldn’t work without accompanying reforms and
LAURA MUELLER/METROLAND
Mayor Jim Watson sits down for a year-end chat with the Kanata Kourier-Standard in his office on Dec. 19. reductions to the size of council, but the current council works together so harmoniously that perhaps the reforms he suggested when the last tumultuous council was in power aren’t really needed, Watson said. “I am much more optimistic that the local voices through the individual councillors (are) in fact getting through,” he said. That wasn’t the case in the last council, the mayor said. Decisions
were being made downtown with little regard to how those choices affected the suburbs or rural area. “I think a lot of that had to do, quite frankly, with the fact that there was a sense that that council just was not working well together,” Watson said. The mayor admitted the system only works that way if the elected councillors endeavour to listen to their residents and put regional squabbling aside.
“I think it gives us and the public an incentive to make sure when we’re electing men and women to serve office that they bring forward a perspective that part of their job is actually to work collaboratively with one another,” he said. Even a borough system wouldn’t eliminate the problem of a decision that’s good for one area adversely affecting another area. “You’re never going to find a perfect system,” the mayor said. Watson said he doesn’t spend enough time touting how this council has tried to increase public participation in “real” decision making. Under his leadership, the city transformed its councillor-composed transit committee into a commission that includes four citizen members. The same goes for the board that oversees Ottawa Public Health and now includes independent public members. The city’s built heritage committee was “upgraded” from an advisory group to a decision-making subcommittee, while still including citizen members. The other advisory committees also got an overhaul: in 2012, the city axed 10 of its 15 citizen advisory groups, saving $190,000 annually. Although the number of citizens who have the privilege to sit on those bodies and participate in decision making is very limited, “It’s a start,” the mayor said. Watson declared almost immediately after the 2010 election that he planned to run again, but don’t expect him to have any council candidates he supports standing beside him. Watson won’t campaign as part of a slate of candidates and he “doesn’t intend” to endorse anyone running for
council, he said. “I can’t give you a definitive ‘yes’ or ‘no’ on that except to say it is certainly not my intention (to endorse anyone),” he said. “I didn’t do it last time because I had enough on my plate.” Moments later, Watson said he was happy with the performance of the councillor who represents his ward – Bay Coun. Mark Taylor, who worked for Watson as his executive assistant when he was an MPP – and said he “look(s) forward to supporting him again.” But the mayor said all members of council have contributed greatly, but he won’t “pass judgment on who should stay and who should go.” Watson won’t hesitate to publically call out candidates who make false statements during the election, he said. Although Watson said he has seen commentary recently that he will establish a slate of candidates to run alongside him, that’s not the case, he said. “No, I don’t believe in slates. I don’t believe in parties,” Watson said. “I’m wishing all my colleagues the best, but my intention is to focus on my election.” Slates become de facto political parties, he said, and that should be avoided. “When you have a party, you have to feed the party. You feed the party with money and you’re always fundraising. That’s not a good way of governing,” he said. Watson, who has experience in all levels of government, said the healthiest system for a municipal government is to have independent candidates running.

Soccer star scores with balance between sport and school “He took off and ran as fast as he could and took a big lead on everyone, and I was like, I am going to have to pick him up later because he was going to be dead tired by the time he finishes the two-kilometre run,” said Mascoe. To Mascoe’s surprise, Richard didn’t give up the lead and ended up winning the race. Flash forward several years later, when the coach at the Ottawa International Soccer Club concluded that another, more competitive league would be better suited for Parker. Firmly believing in Parker’s talents, Mascoe spoke to a teacher he knew who was coaching at the Ottawa Fury Soccer Club, and helped him secure a try-out. Parker’s path to soccer stardom was just beginning. Following this, Parker was scouted by the eastern Ontario regional team and won a spot on the squad. He was eventually asked to try out for the provincial team. After playing with the provincial team for the past three years, and winning national championships twice, he scored the opportunity to play a number of international games and travelled to Europe on three different occasions. While Parker would like to play professional soccer one day, he knows education is vital for his future. A number of American universities have been contacting him to attend training camps, and Parker says playing at the NCAA level and working towards a degree would be the best option to have something to fall back on. “After I graduate perhaps I can focus on a professional career in soccer,” said Parker. “I’m thinking on the positive side that along with having soccer in my life, I also

need to have an education to fall back on in the future,” he said. “Anything can happen in soccer at any time, injuries can throw you out of the game for life. “That’s why I am choosing to go to university and play soccer at the same time instead of trying to go straight into the pros.” Finding a balance between school and sport is not easy for Parker, who trains five days a week. He currently attends Bill Crothers Secondary School, an athletic-based high school located in Markham, Ont, which he began attending during the second semester of Grade 9. He was able to get in because the national team’s soccer coach wrote a letter of reference. The school understands the responsibilities athletes have when it comes to training, so they provide them with flexibility in their school schedule, he said. So far, the school experience has been a phenomenal one for Parker, who won a Student of Success Award for the York Regional School Board, of which only 25 are handed out. Parker knows the success wouldn’t have been possible without support from his family, teachers, and mentors like Mascoe. He said winning the Canadian championships was a highlight. Not to mention scoring two goals against FC Zurich in Switzerland. Another high point was scoring against Brazil at the Mondial Pupilles Tournament in France in 2013. His secret to chasing his dreams, he said, has always been about believing in himself. “Don’t let anybody tell you that you can’t do something or that you don’t belong because of your race, your skills, your age,” he said. “Stand up for what you believe in and always stay on the positive side no matter what.”

Sports - Richard Parker has always dreamed of playing professional soccer. It was in Canada where he first picked up a soccer ball, was taught the basics of the game from his brothers, as well as a few moves which he soon began using on the soccer field. His passion for the game has taken him around the world, and now Parker is working on furthering his education while playing for the men’s soccer league in the National Collegiate Athletic Association. But the journey itself was challenging. When he was very young, he went through a series of hardships: leaving a refugee camp in Ghana amidst the nightmare of war, losing his father, and moving to Ledbury-Banff in Ottawa. “All the experiences my family went through to get to where they are today in life has made me very strong on the field and in my every day life,” he said. The first team Parker started playing for was the Ottawa International Soccer Club with his older brother, Michael. His teacher, Patrick Mascoe, devoted much of his spare time to driving both boys to soccer practices. Parker was a Grade 4 student at Charles Hulse Public School when Mascoe, who taught at a Kanata Lakes-based school, discovered the boy had a great talent. “One day I was walking out on the schoolyard and I saw this little boy standing on top of the soccer ball,” said Mascoe. It was then that Mascoe approached Richard and asked him if he could enter a cross-country meet.

Holiday Retirement What can I expect at a Holiday Retirement residence? A common misconception about retirement living is that you’ll be giving up your lifestyle.

Community - After the chaos of the holiday season, many New Year’s resolutions are made for healthier lifestyles, including changes around the home. In January, you will find lots of fresh tropical plants of all shapes and sizes for sale at grocery and home improvement stores – which seems like a great idea to help freshen decor and improve air quality in our homes. But how do you choose the best plant for your home and lifestyle? On Tuesday, Jan. 7, the KanataMarch Horticultural Society welcomes Horticultural enthusiast Donna Christie who will discuss “House Plants: The Horrifying, Hideous, Hilarious, Haunting, Healthy and Heavenly.” Donna will present a slide show on the trials, tribulations and triumphs of indoor gardening touching on care, selection, placement and problem prevention techniques for houseplants. The meeting runs from 7:30 to 9 p.m. at the Old Town Hall, 821 March Rd. (entrance to the Old Town Hall is on Klondike Road across from the Shopper’s Drug Mart). There is a $5 fee for non-members. January is the perfect time to join us as a member, enabling you to attend all of our speaker series meetings for less than $2 a meeting. Our
memberships follow the calendar year from January to December and the cost per year is $15 per person or $25 per couple. These memberships must be renewed annually. Our society members are gardeners from novice to expert in experience, who share a common love of plants, gardening and take pride in their home’s landscaping. We feature guest speakers each month on a variety of topics, and help beautify the local community through the maintenance of the Molly Wilson garden at the Old Town Hall. New members are always welcome at any time of the year. Visit kanata-horticultural.com and come grow with us!

The calcium complex in New Chapter® Bone Strength Take Care™ is derived from a special form of plant called Algas Calcareas (AlgaeCal®) that is harvested from the pristine shores of a protected national reserve park in South America. Because calcium alone isn’t enough, Bone Strength Take Care also provides key whole-food complexed nutrients like Vitamin D3, which helps in the absorption of calcium, and Vitamin K, which helps in the maintenance of bones.
