LeBreton Flats move would take five to 10 years: Leeder Sens’ plan for downtown arena one of four proposals shortlisted by NCC on Feb. 18 Adam Kveton

adam.kveton@metroland.com

The Ottawa Senators could be playing hockey at LeBreton Flats in five years at the earliest, said the club’s president, Cyril Leeder. The hockey club announced

it was thinking of relocating to a downtown location last December. Based on past examples of professional arena and stadium developments, Leeder said it could take anywhere from five to 10 years to relocate the Senators to LeBreton Flats.

“In Ottawa, (residents) wanted to build a new football stadium and there seemed to be just about unanimous approval that we needed to rebuild Lansdowne Park and that took us eight years,� said Leeder. “In one sense you can make an argument that that’s about as good as it’s going to get, or as quick as it’s going to get.� The Edmonton Oilers just went through the process of securing a site for their new arena, and it is expected to be ready in 10 years since the project was started, Leeder said. “It’s certainly at least five years and it’s probably a five to 10 year window before you are actually (finished),� he said. “Certainly five, and probably even closer to 10.� Previously, Kanata South Coun. Allan Hubley had estimated the time frame to be closer to 10 to 15 years, with other councillors suggesting longer. See LRT, page 2

ing, we are being fairly tightlipped about the actual details of what’s in our proposal,� he said. But, once the National Capital Commission’s process allows for public consultation, Leeder said the Senators organization is keen to share its plans with fans and the Ottawa community.

Kanata Symphony to hold classical concert on Feb. 28 The Kanata Symphony has been hard at work preparing a challenging program of well-loved favourites for its classical concert at the Glen Cairn United Church, 140 Abbeyhill Rd., on Saturday, Feb. 28, starting at 7:30 p.m. The symphony will perform Beethoven’s Symphony No. 3, which is also called the “Eroica Symphony.” The music of the Eroica Symphony runs the emotional spectrum from grief to intense joy, and is considered to mark the beginning of the true Romantic Era in classical music. The Kanata Symphony will also perform Vivaldi’s Cello Concerto in D major, with the group’s principal cellist, André Pelletier, as the

soloist. Also on the program is the Romeo and Juliet Overture by Tchaikovsky. This passionate piece brilliantly evokes the doomed love of Romeo and Juliet and the brutal conflict of their families.

Tickets are $15 for adults, $10 for students and seniors, and $30 for family and are available at Domenic’s, CD Warehouse, located in Kanata and on Clyde Road, and at the door. The symphony hopes to see you there.

Bass Pro store ‘full steam ahead’ despite competitor’s plans: rep Adam Kveton

adam.kveton@metroland.com

A plan to bring a Bass Pro outdoor outfitter to Kanata won’t be derailed by news a competitor plans to set up shop a few blocks away, says the U.S. retailer. Taggart Realty Management has submitted a site plan proposal to the city calling for a shopping centre with a Cabela’s, another major outdoor outfitter and a competitor of

Bass Pro. Under the plan, the shopping centre will have 28,725 square metres of retail space on a 117,900 square-metre site, and will be located on the west side of the new Tanger Outlets shopping centre, and north of the Canadian Tire Centre. Cabela’s has been slated as the shopping centre’s anchor tenant, and will have 6,500square-metres of retail space, giving the U.S. outdoor outfitter its second location in On-

tario and eighth in Canada. Cabela’s aims to open in the spring of 2016. BASS PRO

Bass Pro announced in late 2013 that it would be anchoring a 210,437-square-metre development, on the east side of the new Tanger Outlets shopping centre, saying it planned to open in 2015. See TAGGART, page 6

A Taggart Realty Management sign proclaims the future construction of a new shopping centre anchored by a Cabela’s outdoor outfitter store across the street from the Tanger Outlets shopping centre in Kanata by Highway 417 and Palladium Drive. The Tanger mall is creating opportunity for more regional retailers, said a company spokesperson.

Taggart to take advantage of Tanger’s regional attraction Continued from page 4

R0013156418

The development, which will have a retail component, is managed by Broccolini/Laurentide Holdings. Some, including Taggart Realty’s vice president of development, Jeff Parkes, have speculated that Bass Pro was thinking twice about moving to a location near Cabela’s, especially since Bass Pro no longer has a firm opening date. Kanata North Coun. Marianne Wilkinson said at a community meeting on Feb. 23 that she also doubted that Bass Pro would be coming to OtIN KANATA THIS tawa in light of Cabela’s plans. SATURDAY ONLY! But, according to Bass Pro’s communications manager, Katie Mitchell, Bass Pro is “still full steam ahead with the project.” “(We are) going as planned and still very excited about that site,” she said. “We are in lots of markets that also have Cabela’s close by, so I don’t think Cabela’s has a bearing one way or the other on whether or not we put a store there,” said Mitchell. Bob Perkins, vice president of Join us for a very special presentation on the world of river cruising real estate for Broccolini ConstrucExclusive prices up to $2000 OFF tion, would not comment specifically on select sailings, extra dollars OFF for attending the presentation about Bass Pro due to a confidentialWhen: Saturday Februrary 28, 2015 | 1pm to 3pm ity agreement.

He added that Please RSVP 613.832.9047 Broccolini is not looking specifically TICO Licence 50018498 Head office 251 Consumers Rd Suite 700 ON M2J 4R3 Tel: 416-487-5385 for outdoor retailers, but said there

are three retailers Broccolini is dealing with for the site. TAGGART’S PLANS

Taggart’s plan envisions attracting regional retailers that generally do not want locations in a downtown setting, but would benefit from Tanger Outlet’s long reach that goes well beyond Ottawa, said Parkes. “Tanger, they believe they are drawing from as far away as Kingston and as far up the valley as, almost North Bay, and to the east as far as halfway to Montreal, so they call it a super-regional kind of location,” said Parkes. Taggart is looking to include home furnishing stores, an automotive supply store, restaurants, junior department stores and more at the site. The developer also wants to include an entertainment-type destination that does not currently exist in Ottawa, but Parkes would not elaborate on what that destination might be. But the entire site would be anchored by the Cabela’s store, he said. CABELA’S

“We’ve designed the whole project around them,” he said. The store is expected to include an indoor archery range, a large mountain replica, museum quality wildlife displays, and employ 175 full-time

and part-time employees, “most of whom will come from Ottawa and the surrounding area,” says Cabela’s press release. It would also include parking and dumping services for RVs. The service would be connected to the municipal sewer system, which can support the service without a problem, said Paul Black with Fotenn Consultants who are working with Taggart. Some Kanata residents at the Feb. 23 community meeting voiced their concern that Kanata could not support so many new and large retail stores. But one man, who preferred to remain anonymous, said he thinks Cabela’s will draw people from as far as Smith Falls. “Every red-blooded male on Saturday morning will be there,” he said. “Finally, a store for guys.” Taggart has spent about a year dealing with site access issues with Cabela’s and the city, said Parkes, referring to the re-alignment of Palladium Drive and the extension of Campeau Drive. With so much retail going into the area, Parkes said the city will be looking to limit any more retail growth after Taggart’s development. To comment on Taggart’s proposal, contact city planner Patricia McCann-MacMillan at 613 580 2424 ext. 13799, or email patricia. mccann-macmillan@ottawa.ca by March 18.

Minus 30 degrees? Time for summer camp

H

ave you registered your kids for summer camp yet? I’m asking because, you know, it’s minus 100 degrees outside and it’s still February. Several years ago, I realized that to get the best choice of summer camps, one had to start thinking about forking out a lot of cash within six weeks of Christmas. Nowadays, typically on the coldest day of the year – the only day of the year my kids don’t play outside, which this year was on Family Day -- I start talking to my family about summer vacation, sports and camps. It drives my husband crazy. What’s the urgency, he asks, as I start racking up sport and camp fees on the credit card. Urgency? Truth is I start scanning the calendar and the previous year’s offerings around Dec. 26. And I check Groupon and talk to friends to find out where their kids are

BRYNNA LESLIE Capital Muse going and what sports they’re playing and who’s carpooling this year. I am on that online registration system the day it crashes because of overzealous parents like me who can’t risk waiting a day. Yes, I’m that mom. GREAT CENTRES

We’re extremely lucky to live in a city like Ottawa. We pay heftily for property taxes that look likely to increase. But we also have great community centres, with free

public skating at most arenas every weekend until the end of March funded by RBC (in case you’re looking for an indoor activity until the thaw). And I’ve always been impressed with the high quality of the local camps. I also like to get my kids into at least one specialty camp each summer. If you are looking for something a little out of the ordinary this year, check these out: * Aviation and Music Camp. This was a new offering put on by Sonart Musique

from Gatineau and the Canada Aviation and Space Museum last year. For the museum, it was somewhat a godsend, as their camp ideas had dried up. Rumour has it they were contemplating cancelling camp in 2014 until Sonart made the pitch. The music academy has several successful camps in Gatineau, including one at the Chateau Cartier that all include two hours of music instruction per day in various instruments. Add space exploration and aviation, including a ride over Ottawa in a 1930s vintage plane, and you’ve got yourself a winner -- the camp sold out in its inaugural year. * The YMCA’s Camp Otonabee. For anyone not familiar with this program, it gives kids the experience of overnight camp without the overnights. Camp Otonabee is located in Dunrobin, west of Kanata, on the Ottawa River. The YMCA offers school bus transit from various parts of

the city to get kids there and back daily. The basic adventure camp has kids as young as four swimming, hiking and exploring the woods. Older kids can be more specialized by registering for sailing and paddle sports. All that for less than $200 (plus a premium for sailors) is a steal. They also have a sleepover version for camp veterans. * Carleton University Radio Camp. My kids haven’t tried this one. The journalist in me thinks it looks really cool. Kids get to learn all aspects of radio, including advertising, participating in a play and hosting a live radio program on the university radio station CKCU 91.3FM. They also get to mess around with the sound board and learn behind-thescenes production. Can you

imagine how many fart sounds make it into the broadcast with a group of 10-14 year old kids? If you’re looking for something a little more frugal, there are a number of vacation Bible schools and church-run half day camps across the city that are minimal or no cost. In years past, the Ottawa Catholic School Board has also offered a free morning Mandarin camp. Kids get language lessons in the morning and parents have the option to pay for afternoon camp in local schools. It may be cold and the groundhog may be hiding for a while, but planning for summer in February – even if it gets my husband’s back up -- makes me feel all warm and fuzzy inside.

Make people focus of Flats plan

F

ollowing the presentation of a short list of qualified proposals for the development of National Capital Commission land at LeBreton Flats, the future of the site has begun to take shape. That’s a great thing for the city, as the significant swath of land perched on the shoulder of the Ottawa River, just west of the Parliamentary precinct, should be one of the jewels of the capital. As it stands now, and as it has been for the better part of 60 years, all that resides on that prime piece of property is a brownfield (the Canadian War Museum and a few stout condo towers notwithstanding). Yet while we can see the future peeking over the horizon, it’s still rather hazy. What we know for certain is each of the four proposals – submitted by Claridge Homes, Devcore Group, Focus Equities, and Rendez Vous Lebreton Group (backed by the Ottawa Senators) – will feature a mixture of residential and commercial development, as well as green open spaces, with some sort of cultural or

institutional feature at its core. That’s about all we know at this point. Any additional details won’t be made public for about a year. In the interim, what Ottawans should be hoping is going on in the minds of each of the participating groups is a distinct focus on people. What the redevelopment of LeBreton should not be is some vast expanse of manicured green space surrounding a performance hall, an arena or an office building, no matter how architecturally appealing they might be. No, the redevelopment of LeBreton needs to be focused on bringing people back to what was once a populated working class neighbourhood. People lived their lives in LeBreton, and they should have the opportunity to do so once again. There should be shops, services and other employment in addition to entertainment or other attractions. The NCC has said it wants to see some sort of “anchor� to make LeBreton a “world-class destination.� What will help achieve that goal is a friendly, thriving space anchored by people.

Spring: the cure for what ails us

U

nless you’re one of those smiling winter activities fanatics, cold eventually makes you sad. A bit of it is all right. It reminds us about being Canadian and we take pride in that, our ability to endure. In Ottawa we take pride in our city’s ability to deal with snow and make our life at least a bit more liveable. A little cold is fine. We are used to that week or so of wicked temperatures in January. But February has been an unpleasant surprise and too much, really. It makes a lot of people just want to just stay in the house, which makes them sad. There are those who say that cold is a virtue, that surviving it makes us strong and that it’s not good to

CHARLES GORDON Funny Town be lying around on beaches all the time. That’s all very well and good for those of us with good furnaces and cozy homes, but for those who have to work — and, in tragic cases, sleep — outdoors, that’s a virtue they could do without. It’s no wonder there are not a lot of fans of cold. In addition to freezing your toes off, there are a couple of other things wrong with the cold we’ve been having. First, extended cold is not all

that great for the national psyche. We crank the furnace up, put on sweaters and then look at newspaper photographs of people cross-country skiing in this stuff, which makes us feel inadequate and guilty. This is probably reflected somehow in House of Commons debates. Second, all this cold is making people too smug about climate change. “Global warming?� they sniff. “How can there be global warming when my car won’t start?� You can understand that. This is the second consecutive year of long and brutal winter. It makes it far too easy to forget that polar ice is melting and many parts of the world are experiencing their hottest summers ever.

making us far too envious of warmer places, such as Florida. When you think about it, Florida doesn’t offer us much, culturally speaking, that we can’t get at home. In fact, you could argue that there is more of it here than there. But it’s warm. So instead of paying attention to important issues here, people are checking the newspapers every day to see what the temperature is in Orlando or Fort Myers. It didn’t help that just last week the pitchers and catchers reported to their spring training camps in Florida, part of baseball’s ritual of the seasons. This caused some of us to think that, given the cold, it might be a good time to go down there and check up on how the pitchers and the catchers for the Toronto Blue Jays are doing. Whereas, if we were upstanding citizens of the Valley, we would be

sticking around, shivering, to cheer wistfully for the Senators and keep an eye on the National Hockey League trading deadline. Spring won’t cure all of these problems, but it would at least be a start.

Good Samaritans warm resident’s heart To the editor,

Ottawa’s winter is very cold this year, but I feel warm in my heart because of several strangers’ great help when I had car trouble. Here is my story, which I want to share. On Tuesday Feb. 17, I drove to Cedarhill Golf and Country Club for GCWCC Volunteer Appreciation Event at 1 p.m. I was not familiar with this area and I thought, ‘I may have passed Cedarhill,’ so I parked my car on the side of the road to check the map. Unfortunately, the front right wheel was stuck in the snow, and the car would not move. I didn’t have my cellphone with me, so I was unable to call the Canadian Automobile Association. I had to go for help. It was a very cold day and the temperature was about -20 C. A nice man stopped and he tried to drive my car out of the snow with no luck. Then he called CAA.

If CAA had answered the phone as usual, then my experience would have been simpler. A stranger helped me to get CAA, but CAA was very busy that day. No one was answering the phone. A message on the phone continually said “Please stay on the line, you will be served shortly.” The man told me he had to leave as he was invited to give a speech for GCWCC event. He didn’t want to leave me with no help and suggested I go to the event with him, and he would call CAA after the speech. I told him not to worry, I will find someone. He said he would come back after the speech. After he left, a second man stopped. He also tried to call CAA, but he couldn’t get through either. After trying for 10 minutes, he said he had to leave for an appointment. He took a picture of my CAA information, and promised to

keep his phone on until someone answered. Afterwards, a young man stopped. He did the same thing as the other two men, but still couldn’t reach a CAA operator. Oh My God, CAA wants to test people’s patience? The young man was also going to the GCWCC event. He asked me to go to it with him and he would make sure to contact CAA later. This time I went – it was so cold. As I went to the GCWCC meeting room, they were introducing the next speaker. He was Senator Vern White, the former Ottawa police chief. I was surprised to learn the speaker was the first man who tried very hard to help me. After waiting almost 20 minutes, the young man finally got through to a CAA operator. The operator said someone just called for me. It was the second man I met who was trying to help me. As CAA was extremely busy, the waiting time was a threehour window. I want to thank all the

Time

strangers who helped me. I was glad to finally get through to CAA. Next thing for me was to wait. After one hour waiting inside, a truck passed by, it returned after a few minutes. The trucker asked me if the car in the ditch was mine. He said he can help me get my car out. I told him that CAA will come. He said the wait was too long and the weather being so cold, to try it now. He removed some snow around the wheel, used a rope to connect the car to his truck, but the rope was not strong enough. It was not successful. CAA finally came and my car was pulled out of the snow.

That day, I was helped by Sen. Vern White, Martin Ricard, a manager at United Way, John Laflong and a man, perhaps from Barrhaven, who didn’t leave his name. I was moved and impressed by all these people’s help; I really appreciated everything they did for me. I am glad that I live in Ottawa where people help each other, no matter if they are a senior officer or normal resident. I feel very lucky to have such an unforgettable experience. I will pass on the help to other people just like someone helped me.

Correction In the Feb. 19 edition of the Kanata Kourier-Standard, the article “Ottawa plagued with spike in bank robberies” incorrectly described the Bank Street bank robbery suspect’s height as six-foot-10. Ottawa police, in fact, described the Caucasian male as fivefoot-10. The Kanata Kourier-Standard apologizes for the error.

ing the course of the investigation threats were made “to cause harm to responding officers (and) one officer was named specifically,” said an Ottawa police news release. Threats were also made against at least one station, which triggered the closure of all Ottawa police stations and collision reporting centres for two hours starting at about 4 p.m., said Const. Marc Soucy, spokesperson with the Ottawa police.

As a result of the investigation, a 23-year-old man was arrested and charged with public mischief, breach of probation, two counts of false messages, three counts of uttering threats and for being a common nuisance. The matter is now before the courts, said Soucy, so police will not share any more information about what occurred. “We won’t comment on matter that are before the courts,” he said.

NCC unveils short list of Lebreton Flats proposals steph.willems@metroland.com

The Ottawa Senators’ plan for a downtown arena is among the four proposals shortlisted by the National Capital Commission for the redevelopment of LeBreton Flats. The proposals for the vast, underutilized site just west of downtown will be given until November of this year to submit detailed design proposals and financial plans to the NCC for consideration. The finalists, of which only vague details are presently known, were announced on Feb. 18 by NCC chief executive Mark Kristmanson and board members Pierre Lanctot and Kay Stanley. The NCC is seeking an anchor tenant for the undeveloped lands to capitalize on its location to downtown, the Ottawa River, and the city’s light rail system, which is still under construction. The redevelopment site is 9.3 hectares in size, with an ad-

ditional 12.3 hectare “option lands� available. Five proposals were evaluated by a selection committee, consisting of NCC staff, a hired architect and a development consultant, which concluded that one proposal didn’t fit the initial criteria for consideration. In introducing the proposals, Stanley called LeBreton Flats an area of “rich history and one of the most beautiful waterfront sites in the capital.� “(This is) a unique opportunity to create an exemplary vibrant, urban destination in the heart of the nation’s capital,� she said, calling the end result of the competition “one of the most important legacy projects the NCC will contribute to in the National Capital Region.� Claridge Homes, which has already developed condos on the easternmost LeBreton parcel, is proposing indoor and outdoor concert facilities, as well as “cultural enterprises,� all surrounded

by green space and mixeduse development. Devcore Group wants to build “multiple cultural institutionsâ€? around a central grand allĂŠe, as well as green spaces, and residential and commercial developments. Focus Equities wants the site to be home to the headquarters of an international organization (which was not identified), along with cultural venues and mixed development. Rendez Vous Lebreton Group, which is the banner under which the Ottawa Senators are submitting their proposal, envisions “a major events centre for sports and entertainment performances,â€? surrounded by green spaces and mixed developments. Lanctot said the public will be “asked to comment on these designs ‌ in early 2016,â€? after which the evaluation committee with make their recommendation to the NCC board of directors. “(The process) will be under the scrutiny of an external

Kristmanson said the request for proposals that are to be submitted by the four groups, and the details con-

tained within, won’t be released to the public, explaining that the proponents needed time and space to develop their designs. When asked why the members of the four groups were

instructed not to discuss the details of their proposals with the media, Kristmanson said, “we’ll have a public debate on the merits of the proposals after they develop their proposals.�

Vaccination saves lives! It is safe, effective and has reduced and even eliminated many diseases. Immunization is a priority at Ottawa Public Health. Next to sanitation and clean drinking water, vaccines have been called the greatest public health intervention in history. Many diseases that once disabled and killed millions are now at their lowest levels, thanks to vaccines. Some say that vaccines are a victim of their own success. Thankfully in Canada, we don’t often see many of the vaccine-preventable diseases that used to be commonplace. On average, vaccination coverage rates are high in Canada, and overall Ottawa is well protected against vaccine preventable disease. The return of measles in various pockets of Canada is a prime example of what happens when we become complacent about the importance of immunization. Measles in Disneyland and in many U.S. states; recent measles cases in Toronto, Niagara, Winnipeg and Quebec have resulted in many questions and concerns from residents.

Children in Ontario must be immunized and show proof of immunization to attend school or daycare. Your child’s docMeasles, also called red measles, is a very contagious infection that is caused by tor will give you a record of all your child’s vaccinations. As a the measles virus. It is usually more severe in infants and adults than in children. parent or guardian, you are required to contact Ottawa Public Health to report every time your child receives a vaccine. This can be done online at OttawaPublicHealth.ca or by calling How can I protect myself against measles? 613-580-6744 (TTY: 613-580-9656).

What is measles?

The best way to protect yourself against measles is to receive the measles vaccine. It is combined with the vaccine for mumps and rubella and is known as the MMR vaccine. MMR is very safe. One dose of the measles vaccine provides immunity for 85% to 95% of individuals, and a second dose increases immunity levels to 99%. The vaccine is given to children at 12 months of age and again at 4 to 6 years of age.

How do I know if I am protected against measles? After being infected with measles, immunity is generally lifelong. Immunization with 2 doses of the measles vaccine provides almost 100% protection against measles. Adults born prior to 1970 are generally considered as having acquired natural immunity to measles – since measles was common place in the population. Adults born in or after 1970 without evidence of immunity to measles should receive 1 dose of the MMR vaccine. If you are unsure of your immunization status, contact your health care provider.

This record is very important and should be kept safe with other documents such as birth certificates and passports. Immunization records may be needed for travelling outside the country, going to summer camps, starting university or college, and for many occupations. A schedule of publicly-funded vaccines can be found at OttawaPublicHealth.ca and the Ontario Ministry of Health and Long-Term Care has an interactive and very useful tool on their Facebook page to help understand the schedule. Immunize.ca has an app that can help you keep track of your family’s immunizations however, you still need to report your children’s immunizations to Ottawa Public Health. You can report immunizations online or by calling 613-580-6744 (TTY: 613-580-9656).

If you have questions about immunizations, call to speak with an Ottawa Public Health Nurse, Monday to Friday, 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. or email healthsante@ottawa.ca. You can also tweet us @OttawaHealth for general immunization questions. R0012516814-1204

Food cupboard organizations in the Ottawa area and into Gatineau can expect thousands of pounds of food donations after local pizza restaurant chain Gabriel Pizza announced a new initiative with the Ottawa Food Bank. From Feb. 20 to March 20, the pizza chain will donate four pounds of food (the same weight as an extra-large pizza) for every extra-large pizza sold. The inaugural Pound 4 Pound campaign will benefit food banks from eastern Ontario and western Quebec including the Kanata Food Cupboard. “I think it’s a wonderful win for both parties,� said Patricia Elkins, event and volunteer co-ordinator with the Kanata Food Cupboard. “I don’t know what the sales are from an extra-large (pizza) perspective, but I can imagine that

over a month there would be quite a few sold, so four pounds for one pizza is an incredible, generous offer,� she said. “I can’t wait to see what we have at the end.� The campaign has a goal of selling 10,000 pounds, or 4,536 kilograms of extra-large pizzas, meaning the company would donate that same amount, said an Ottawa Food Bank press release. “This is a time of year when our food banks are looking for additional donations,’ says George Hanna, president of Gabriel Pizza. “Gabriel Pizza is privileged to support these amazing organizations and our community.� Gabriel Pizza locations will also accept non-perishable food donations during the campaign. Other food banks that will benefit from the campaign include the Nepean Family Services Association of Churches, the Barrhaven Food Bank and the Stittsville Food Bank.

Theme park among options considered to replace Senators Adam Kveton

adam.kveton@metroland.com

Kanata South Coun. Allan Hubley is floating the idea of turning the Kanata location of the Ottawa Senators into a theme park if the hockey club moves to LeBreton Flats. The National Capital Commission announced on Feb. 18 that the Senators’ plan to build a downtown arena was one four proposals shortlisted for the redevelopment of LeBreton Flats. Meanwhile, Hubley and members of the west-end business community are drumming up ideas for use of the land on Palladium Drive in case the Senators relocate. “(It’s) very important to say right from the start that everybody’s first choice is to keep the team where it’s always been, and that is here,” said Hubley. “I’m not giving them an eviction notice or anything to bring in a waterslide. That’s not going to happen.” But, if the Senators’ proposal to the National Capital Commission to move their arena to LeBreton Flats succeeds, a theme park is one alternative use for the Canadian Tire Centre location, said Hubley. “I’ve talked with our economic de-

velopment folks (at the city) and I’ve also talked with the Western Ottawa Board of Trade … so that these guys start thinking now about what the options are for that land and what can we do,” he said. “One of the early ideas that’s rising to the top quickly with popularity with people that I’ve been talking to is to convert the area into some sort of a theme park, like a Wonderland kind of idea,” Hubley said. “Anytime I’ve brought that up in response to what is going to happen if (the Senators) move, I’ve always got a very good reaction from people to that idea,” he said. The West Ottawa Board of Trade’s executive director, Rosemary Leu said she could not provide details about the idea of building a theme park, stemming from options for use of the land on Palladium Drive should the Senators chose to relocate. “The West Ottawa Board of Trade will certainly work to support any ideas that will provide benefit to the business community, and the community as a whole,” she said. Senators Sports and Entertainment president Cyril Leeder said that he had not heard about the theme park idea, but said that, if the team does move,

the sports organization would hold discussions with regards to what to do with the Kanata arena and land. “A theme park could be one of the uses,” he said. You would need somebody willing to make the investment in establishing a theme park.” Roller-coasters or not, the Senators organization would not simply pick up and abandon their land, he said. “We own the site, (and) it’s a valuable piece of land,” said Leeder. “We wouldn’t just up and walk away from it. “It’s an important piece of property to get it right so we would be working with the city and the local community here to get something that would make the highest and best use of the property.” Since the Senators announced in late December 2014 they would make a proposal to the National Capital Commission about moving the team to LeBreton Flats, the Kanata business community has voiced concern about the impact a move like that would have on businesses like local restaurants, retail and hotels. “As an organization that represents the business community in west Ottawa, we would obviously be disappointed to see our NHL franchise move

With the Ottawa Senators one step closer in their bid to move to LeBreton Flats, Kanata South Coun. Allan Hubley and the Kanata business community are starting to consider their options for replacing the team, including the possibility of creating a theme park. out of this part of the city and would be concerned about the impact that may have on local businesses,” said Leu. If that happens, some kind of theme park could be a good alternative, said Hubley. “All the home games we get is 44, unless they make it into the playoffs, so a theme park would give you many, many more days of family entertainment,” he said. “(And) if we develop that area into a theme park, obviously if anything,

business is going to go up for the restaurants and the retail and the hotels,” Hubley said. But the first choice is still keeping the Sens where they are, he said. “Certainly, and like anybody in Kanata, I don’t want to see the Sens leave. But if this is what it takes for them to succeed, then we need to understand that it’s more important that the team stays in Ottawa then where exactly it’s located in Ottawa,” said Hubley.

16 Kanata Kourier-Standard - Thursday, February 26, 2015

Kanata to get new bus route, improved service: Wilkinson Conversations with OC Transpo to determine what other changes should come out of the budget increase continue, she said. “Nothing will happen until (the draft budget) is passed, but what (OC Transpo) need to do is they have to be ready to go quickly because they would like to have these routes in place for the end of June,� Wilkinson said. The boost to OC Transpo’s budget is welcome, she said, as new suburban neighbourhoods continue to be built, but are left without sufficient transit service. “We have areas which don’t have any all-day service,� said Wilkinson. Council is slated to vote on the budget on March 11. “There is no new money for express buses, unfortunately,� she added.

The city is planning the first increase in OC Transpo’s budget since 2011 with $1 million slated to provide new routes and improved service to new and growing communities outside the Greenbelt, said Kanata North Coun. Marianne Wilkinson. The money is expected to provide a new regular service bus route from Morgan’s Grant to the Kanata Centrum, an increase in Route 93’s frequency, and improvements to Route 168, as well as routes in other communities, said Wilkinson. Some money over and above the $1 million will go towards providing approximately 5,700 more Para Transpo trips a year, according to the draft budget. Citing discussions with OC Transpo staff, Wilkinson said the money will be used in five areas across the city: north and south Kanata, Stittsville, Barrhaven and the east end.

EXPRESS BUSES

North Kanata has been dealing with a change in express bus routes since the be-

ginning of this winter, where a Route 64 was created, displacing some of Route 60. Route 64 was created to serve newer communities around Klondike Road and near the South March Highlands, while continuing to serve residents in Morgan’s Grant, Briarbrook and elsewhere. While that has left some residents happy with their new service, others are facing longer rides, said Wilkinson. About 60 people attended a meeting on Feb. 3 where many Morgan’s Grant residents complained about extended ride times, buses that show up late or not at all, and waiting in extremely cold weather with no shelter, Wilkinson said. While residents can get to work by bus, the express bus changes are causing some people to lose money. “One person said she is paying $300 more a month now for childcare after work because of the time that she gets home one the bus because of the longer route,�

File

The city is planning to give a $1 million boost to bus service in Kanata and other communities outside of Ottawa’s Greenbelt, with the first increase to OC Transpo’s budget since 2011. said Wilkinson. Some of these problems are due to the poor winter driving conditions, while others

stem from an overburdened bus system, she said. But OC Transpo is working on the problems residents voiced at

the meeting, she said, adding that service should become more reliable as spring arrives.

Sens sign Brookfield High grad to $19.6M contract extension erin.mccracken@metroland.com

The Ottawa Senators have signed defenceman Marc Methot, a Brookfield High School graduate, to a fouryear contract extension. “Honoured and excited to be a part of this great organization for the next four seasons,” Methot posted on his Twitter account after inking the deal with Ottawa Senators general manager Bryan Murray on Feb. 16. “I’m proud to remain an Ottawa Senator. Thank you.” The 29-year-old will continue playing for the National Hockey League team until the end of the 2018-19 season as part of the new contract worth $19.6 million US or $4.9 million US per year. The deal carries a 10-team, notrade clause, the Ottawa Senators Hockey Club said on Twitter, the same day the paperwork was signed. “And I certainly can’t forget to thank Bryan Murray and (club owner) Eugene Melnyk for giving me the opportunity to play in this great city,” Methot said in a tweet that was shared by 109 followers and favourited 461 times. His fellow defenceman and team captain Erik Karlsson was equally enthusiastic the team had reclaimed Methot. “It feels amazing to have you for another four years, my friend,” Karlsson tweeted to Methot. Methot’s record with the Senators this season, up until Feb. 16, includes five assists, 10 penalty minutes and a plus-eight rating in 17 games, according to the NHL club. An injury, widely reported to plague his hip or back, forced him to the sidelines for 37 games. The Ottawa native, who stands at six-foot-three and weighs in at 230 pounds, has scored eight goals and made 31 assists, earning him 39 points in 138 games in his three seasons with the Senators. In 10 playoff games with the team, he has garnered one goal and four assists. Methot first started wearing the Number 3 jersey for the Sens after he was traded from the Columbus Blue Jackets in 2012.

With pen in hand and as Ottawa Senators General Manager Bryan Murray looks on, 29-year-old defenceman Marc Methot, left, smiles while sealing his future with the National Hockey League club for the next four years. The $19.6million US contract extension was announced on Feb. 16. During the 275 regular-season games he took to the ice with the Blue Jackets, Methot scored seven goals, made 55 assists and racked up 208 minutes in the penalty box. The Blue Jackets scooped up Methot as their sixth-round pick in the 2003 NHL entry draft. He was the 168th draft pick overall.

Winter Parking Overnight Restrictions

Timing is everything Make confident decisions with AgExpert Analyst

I would like to remind residents that winter overnight parking regulations are in effect until April 1. There is no parking on city streets between 1 a.m. and 7 a.m. when 7 cm or more is forecast by Environment Canada. This includes any forecast for a range of snow of more than 7 cm (for example, 5 to 10 cm). Vehicles that remain parked on the street during an overnight parking restriction will be ticketed and could be towed. You can sign up for Winter Parking e-Alerts at http://ottawa.ca/en/city-hall/ your-city-government/contact-city-ottawa/sign-e-subscriptions to receive e-mail notification on overnight parking bans and also follow the City of Ottawa Winter Parking Alerts on Twitter @ottawacity Parking on the streets in winters (like this one with lots of snow) is leading to streets not being plowed properly and serious concerns being raised about access for emergencies, for garbage trucks and for other needs such as Para Transpo. Bylaw Services will be enforcing the three hour parking limit on streets where complaints are received.

CITY OF OTTAWA NOTICE OF APPLICATION OF A ZONING AMENDMENT In accordance with Section 34(10.7)(a) of the Planning Act and Section 3.(1) of Ontario Regulation 545/06, notice is hereby provided that a zoning by-law amendment proposal is being considered by the Planning and Growth Management Department at the City of Ottawa. LANDS SUBJECT TO THE PROPOSAL The zoning amendment proposal affects various lands throughout the City of Ottawa. PURPOSE AND EFFECT OF THE PROPOSED AMENDMENT This report proposes substantive changes that provide for a new intent with regard to a permission for a property or to a general provision of the Zoning By-law, as well as technical amendments to correct anomalies in the Zoning By-law as provided for by Section 5.2.3.3 of the Official Plan. Additional anomaly items may be added to the report on a priority basis. Where an amendment is reliant upon the policies in Official Plan Amendment 150, that amendment will not come into effect until such time as the applicable policies introduced by Official Plan Amendment 150 also come into effect.

Blondin wins silver at world championships Brier Dodge

brier.dodge@metroland.com

Ivanie Blondin landed on the podium at the long track speed skating world single distance championships, which wrapped up on Feb. 15 in Heerenveen, Netherlands. She won a silver medal in the women’s mass start, her strongest event. She already has won two gold, two silver and a bronze in the event on the world cup circuit this season. Blondin finished 0.15 seconds behind the Dutch winner, Irene Scouten. “I would have preferred

the gold medal, but finishing first at this stage of my career remains a big accomplishment for me, so I’m still super pumped with second place,� said Blondin in a Speed Skating Canada press release. “I’m ecstatic with the result, which follows a fantastic season.�

Blondin also was part of the fourth-place women’s pursuit team, alongside Regina’s Kali Christ and Kamloops, B.C.’s Josie Spence. It’s an improvement for the Canadians; at the last world single distance championship, held in 2013, Blondin was on a team that finished

eighth. She also raced in the 5,000metre race, where she finished sixth. She was beat in her pairing by Olympic champion Martina Sablikova, a Czech skater.

City Councillor, Kanata North DRAINAGE, BLANDING’S TURTLES AND IMPACT ON KNL LANDS – Public Meeting March 4, 7-9 pm, All Saints High School For the past four years the City has been undertaking drainage studies to come up with the present situation of runoff from the lands north of the Beaver Pond through the Kanata North Business Park and into the Ottawa River. The studies have identified work that needs to be done on downstream culverts, but does not deal with drainage from any further construction on the KNL lands. It is up to a developer to submit plans for drainage for their lands. Those plans are analyzed by City staff and then outlines where specific permits are required by the province and conservation authority. At the meeting City staff will present the findings of both the latest Drainage Study and the final Blanding’s Turtle report (the Blanding’s Turtle is an endangered animal found in the South March Highlands. The City was required to conduct a study to find out how many are in the area and their habitat locations). By the time of the meeting I hope to have information on what the next steps for the area will be, including construction of the new public elementary school at Terry Fox and the Old Second Line.

CHINESE NEW YEAR Congratulations and thanks to Wen Jean Ho, the Kanata Chinese Seniors, and the Beaverbrook Library staff for a wonderful event to celebrate the Chinese New Year. It was a thoroughly enjoyable event for all.

DRIVE SAFELY

!

This winter has been a challenge for driving due to frequent small snowfalls and extreme cold which makes salt less effective. Additionally, many drivers continue to text and use hand held cell phones while driving, which leads to more accidents. Using devices is now a major cause of accidents so pull over or wait to make that call!

The March Town Hall Meeting will be held earlier in the month to avoid March Break. The key issues will be a new site plan, just filed by the developer of 2 The Parkway, which divides the building into two towers, with the first planned to start construction this year. There is no change in the height or total number of units in the two towers. Other issues on the agenda include an update on development plans north of the Beaver Pond, proposed new bus routes in Kanata North, exciting developments at the Wesley Clover Equestrian Park and information on a TedTalk in Kanata.

Nepean Minor Hockey Association turns 50 League celebrates with video contest Alex Robinson

alex.robinson@metroland.com

Growing up playing hockey in Nepean gave Jeff Chychrun a base to build his NHL career. The retired defenceman has nothing but fond memories from his time playing in the Nepean Minor Hockey Association, where many players that went on to the NHL learned to play the game. “I was really fortunate to grow up in Nepean,� Chychrun told the Nepean-Barrhaven News. “When I look back now, the quality of people who were coaching our team and the lifelong family friends we gathered from playing in Nepean – it built a great base for my career going forward.� The NMHA is turning 50 this year and has decided to celebrate by holding a video

contest called “50 for 50.� The league is asking Nepean residents, alumni, players and coaches to submit 50-second videos that describe what the league meant to them. Chychrun has already sent in a submission of his own to help kick off the competition, thanking all the coaches, players and parents who helped him along the way. “We had really good coaching, really good facilities and really good people,� he said. “The coaches passed along their love of the sport.� Chychrun went on to play eight seasons in the NHL with the Philadelphia Flyers, Los Angeles Kings, Pittsburgh Penguins and Edmonton Oilers. He said the calibre of players in the NHMA created a competitive atmosphere that helped his development. Chyrchrun was in the age group below Steve Yzerman, another Nepean native who went on to achieve NHL greatness. Among the older alumni

who also submitted a video to celebrate the league’s 50th anniversary, was John Ollson, who went on to play for the Ottawa 67’s and Chicago Blackhawks after playing in the NHMA in the 1970s. Ollson, who now runs hockey camps out of his business – Ollson Sports Group in Ottawa – grew up in Barrhaven and was constantly playing on outdoor rinks in the neighborhood. Ollson fondly recalled his days playing minor hockey in Nepean, where he was coached by Jim York, the father of former Ottawa Senator Jason York, and played alongside Yzerman, as well as former NHL goalie Darren Pang. “I’m surprised 50 years has gone by so quickly,� he said. “I think these hockey associations nowadays, they have a lot of responsibility to deal with than they ever did before. My hat goes off to the people putting the time and effort in. The bigger things get the harder it is to keep everybody

Area Tim Hortons owners invest in food security Ottawa stores donate $10,000 to food bank Steph Willems

steph.willems@metroland.com

As the number of food bank users grows, the need for donations to fund

the operation of this service becomes increasingly important. February normally coincides with a drop in donations, so the Ottawa Food Bank was thrilled to accept a $10,000 donation on Feb. 18 from local Tim Hortons franchise owners. The money will go towards the purchase of food for the 50,000 people a month the food bank serves. Amid rising food prices and eco-

nomic pressures, food bank use is up five per cent over this time last year, said Patti Murphy, director of communications for the Ottawa Food Bank. “The timing is brilliant,� she said of the Tim Hortons donation. “This kind of donation is tremendous to us. It allows us to purchase food throughout the year.� Food drives usually get underway

in the spring, meaning there’s a lull in donations between the holidays and the arrival of warmer weather. When it purchases food to fill in the donation gaps, the Ottawa Food Bank takes advantage of partnerships in order to get five dollars’ worth of food for every dollar donated. Tim Hortons is a regular contributor to the food bank, and most recently organized a food share program to

benefit the service. “This year, rather than put all that money into the promotional material, and buying the shopping bags, we decided to take that money and donate it directly to the food bank,� said west-end franchise owner Bill Holdsworth. As the region’s central food assistance program, operating out of a warehouse on Michael Street in the city’s east end, the Ottawa Food Bank delivers to 148 member agencies throughout the city. The food bank is online at ottawafoodbank.com.

Each week, a lawyer from the Kanata based Allan Snelling law firm will answer a reader’s question. A weekly guide in legal matters I was injured in a car accident while driving to drop off a package for my employer—I almost never drive as part of my job. I work in an office as a clerk. The other driver was charged. Now I am off work and need physiotherapy. My doctor says I may have a permanent injury to my back. I have received a Notice from the Workplace Safety Insurance Board (WSIB) requesting that I elect whether or not I want to receive benefits. Can I sue the other driver and receive benefits? No. In Ontario injured workers who receive WSIB benefits forego their right to sue on their own behalf. You may choose to elect not to receive benefits and preserve your right to sue a third party in some limited circumstances. In Ontario, employees who are insured under the Workplace Safety Insurance Act scheme are not permitted to sue their own employer for injuries sustained while working. Depending on the nature of your job, you may not be able to sue another worker or employer either. About Allan Snelling

The Bells Corners Business Improvement Area is renewing its push for an urban renewal plan from the city to revitalize the neighborhood. The BIA has been calling for a community improvement plan for the west Nepean area since the organization was founded in 2009, but has not gotten its wish yet. The city currently has community improvement plans in Orléans, Carling Avenue and St. Joseph Boulevard. Under the provincial Planning Act, community improvement plans are tools municipalities can use to revitalize specific areas. They vary depending on the needs of the community and can focus on a number of issues, including environmental, economic and social concerns. Some of their uses include targeting neglected lands or vacant buildings for redevelopment, and providing municipal incentives, such as grants, to attract investment in the community. Bells Corners BIA executive director Alex Lewis hopes Bells Corners will be the next area in the city to get a plan. “I think it’s one of those communities that was left by the wayside in amalgamation,” Lewis said. “I’m not saying we should have extra attention, but we need attention in general,” Bells Corners has seen a downturn in recent years after surrounding suburban neighborhoods built up their own retail centres. Residents in those communities who might previously venture to Bells Corners to buy things, no longer need to. But Lewis and other local leaders say signs of a revitalization are growing, as the Department of National Defence is preparing to move into the old Nortel campus on Carling Avenue, bringing thousands of employees back to the area. Lewis said a community improvement plan could serve as a roadmap to guide a possible revitalization and to help attract more residents to the area. At a forum during the last municipal election campaign, Lewis asked mayoral candidates whether a Bells Corners community improvement plan would be a priority for them. Every candidate, including Mayor Jim Watson, said yes, according to Lewis. “We’d like to meet with Mayor Watson and the (city’s) economic development (and innovation department) this year to figure what we can do to expedite this process to get it through before the next election,” he said. College Ward Coun. Rick Chiarelli has been supportive of a community improvement plan for the area, as have a number of other councillors. The BIA has started informing local stakeholders of the process, which would include a number of community meetings to get feedback before council adopts a plan. “The sense that we’re getting from council is that we’re next in line,” Lewis said. “We’d like to get the ball rolling this year and we’d like to have the plan completed before the next election. That’s a priority.”

If you have a general legal question that you would like to have addressed send it via email to Legalmatters@compellingcounsel.com

However, if you are injured in a vehicle collision and the responsible driver is not a worker as defined in the Act then you may elect whether or not you wish to receive WSIB benefits or pursue the at fault driver. That is a complicated decision. Generally speaking, the more serious the injuries you have sustained the more likely you will be better off foregoing WSIB benefits and pursuing the at fault driver. However, if there are questions about liability (if you are wholly or partially at fault), or if there is a question about your ability to successfully recover damages in a tort action the WSIB scheme may be the best option for you. Deciding whether or not to elect to receive WSIB benefits is complicated, and best made with the assistance of a lawyer with experience in such matters. Experienced lawyers are available to consult with you, often without obligation to you.

Ottawa man charged in Riverview Park homicides DNA evidence links accused to three unsolved murders: police Brier Dodge

brier.dodge@metroland.com

Ottawa police had a eureka moment when DNA evidence allegedly linked Ian Bush, the 59-year-old Orléans man accused in the December 2014 home invasion robbery and attempted murder of Second World War veteran Ernest Côté in New Edinburgh, to three unsolved murders in south Ottawa. Alban Garon, Raymonde Garon, and Marie-Claire Beniskos were killed in their Riverside Drive condominium in June 2007. Police waited until Bush finished a psychiatric evaluation stemming from charges related to last year’s home invasion and

attempted murder before formally charging him with three counts of first-degree murder on Feb. 20. The police robbery unit has also pressed an additional 11 charges related to firearms stemming from last year’s home invasion. Bush had already been charged for the attempted murder of Côté. “In the last few weeks, investigators have worked to establish evidence to warrant the homicide charges,” said deputy police Chief Jill Skinner at a Feb. 20 press conference. She said investigators decided, in consultation with the Crown, to charge Bush once his psychiatric evaluation was complete. Hundreds of police officers have been involved in the triple murder case over the years, including the robbery unit, which investigated the recent home invasion. Staff Sgt. Bruce Pirt, with the police major crime section, wouldn’t release much information on the links between the murders of the Garons, a mar-

When pressed if there were any more suspects or potential accomplices in the murders,

Pirt said he can’t comment on the police investigation, but the murder case has now been closed by police. “It was a good, solid sevenand-a-half years of investigation that got us here today,”

Pirt said. “I’m relieved. I was part of the investigative team in 2007, and I’m a part of the investigative team now, and I’m proud of everyone who put this together.” Still ongoing is the com-

parison of the evidence to other similar cases, in Ottawa and across Canada, Pirt said. He wouldn’t comment on specific cases, such as the unsolved murder of Paul-André Simard, killed in Nepean several months before the three south Ottawa murders. Bush is being held in police custody. The families of the three south Ottawa victims put out a statement through police, following the Feb. 20 announcement. “We are very pleased with the results of the investigation. The three families sincerely thank the police service for the tireless teamwork it has demonstrated since 2007. The friendship that linked Marie-Claire (Beniskos), Raymonde and Alban (Garon) also unites our families by force of circumstance. “We wish to thank all those who have supported us during this ordeal and who continue to lend us their strength against all that is yet to come. We now ask media to kindly respect our privacy.”

The proposal calls for the installation of eight new telecommunications antennas and an accompanying equipment shelter designed to improve coverage for Telus Mobility customers. “Telus is proposing to construct this antenna system in order to provide improved wireless and voice-data service to their customers in the area,” Gloucester-Southgate Coun. Diane Deans said at the start of a public information session at the Greenboro Community

Centre on Feb. 19. No one from the community attended the meeting. “In that spot we have a hole in our network,” said Marc Boustani, a Montreal-based Telus radiofrequency design specialist, adding the system’s coverage area would span one kilometre. Before the installation goes ahead on the roof of the Donnelly Ford Lincoln dealership at 2496 Bank St., Telus must have its municipal concurrence application approved by the city. Public consultation is required in this process, as set out by Industry Canada, which regulates radio-communication and broadcasting antenna systems. The municipal concurrence and public consultation process

was brought into effect in Ottawa in April 2012 to give the city the opportunity to provide input on the location and design of antenna systems. Deans asked Telus representatives at the meeting whether Industry Canada allows companies to consider health impacts of cellular antennas on the municipality. “They require the site to be built and maintained all through its life according to Safety Code 6, so that’s the commitment we have to meet,” said Joanne Rinfret, Montreal-based senior manager of real estate and governmental affairs for Telus. Safety Code 6 sets out Health Canada’s radiofrequency exposure guidelines, released in a 2009 report entitled, “Limits of

Human Exposure to Radiofrequency Electromagnetic Energy in the Frequency Range from 3 kHz to 300 GHz – Safety Code 6.” “So it’s sort of a pass-fail on Safety Code 6,” said Deans. “If you pass then residents can’t come out and say we’re concerned about the long-term health impacts of living in close proximity. You’ve met the standard,” she said, to which Rinfret agreed. “All cellular carriers are required to meet that (code) and it’s no different from TV stations and other broadcasting (agencies),” said Gregory Mignon, a senior project manager with Ottawa-based engineering consultant firm, Novatech, which has been contracted by

Telus for the project. No one at the meeting knew the exact emission levels for the proposed antennas, but Boustani said these will be tested and given a pass or fail. The public consultation process for the application was triggered by the total height of the rooftop antenna system, which will be more than 25 per cent of the height of the automobile dealership, said Theresa Gilchrist, a Novatech planner. The structures will be 2.8 to 4.57 metres above the roof, for a total height of 11.48 metres. This site was chosen because there were no other cellular towers in the immediate area that could be used to mount the new antennas, she said, adding this rooftop was also selected

for its lower overall height. Rooftop installation was the preferred method to enhance coverage, “and the fact that the profile rooftop antennas would be less obtrusive than a standalone tower,” Gilchrist said. There are homes on Albion Road to the east of the property, Sawmill Creek lies south, and there are commercial properties to the north and west. “Within that 120-metre radius of the antennas, there’s only a few residential properties,” Gilchrist said during the meeting attended by representatives from Deans’ office and city planner Ann O’Connor. Public input on the proposed project must be submitted in writing by March 5 to r.gilchrist@novatech-eng.com.

City receives paperwork on new Findlay Creek school Findlay Creek may be one step closer to having an elementary public school built in the growing south Ottawa community. The Ottawa-Carleton District School Board has submitted a site plan control application to the city for the construction of a two-storey public elementary school on a vacant parcel of land the board owns at the northwest corner of Findlay Creek and Kelly Farm drives. “It’s one of our highest priorities in Findlay Creek, so we’re happy to hear it,” said Meagan Lydan, president of the Findlay Creek Community Association. “People have moved to this community to send their kids to school in this community. We’ve been promised it a long time and so they’ll be excited,” she said. Jason Smith, who handles the community association’s education portfolio, said the board’s application to the city

was “a longtime coming.” “It’s been a gruelling process,” he said, referring to the project moving up and down on the school board’s list of priority capital projects over the years. “It was expected to be a lot sooner and with those expectations not coming, I think part of it is, ‘We’ll believe it when we see it.’” The school board still has to develop and submit its prioritized list of school projects to Ontario’s Ministry of Education. The province is expected to ask for that in February or March. Mark Fisher, public school board trustee for Zone 7, doesn’t yet know where the Findlay Creek school sits on that list, but said he doesn’t see how it can’t be placed at the top given the closure in 2017 of Elizabeth Park Public School at the former Uplands base. “We’re in an emergency situation right now,” he said, adding that the majority of the more than 400 students at the Uplands school live in Findlay Creek. “It can’t be anywhere

ERIN MCCRACKEN/METROLAND

The Ottawa-Carleton District School Board, which owns this parcel of undeveloped land at the corner of Findlay Creek and Kelly Farm drives in Findlay Creek, has submitted an application to the city for the construction of a new elementary school there. else on the list but at the top because we’re running out of time to be able to build (it) and there’s no Plan B.” The province is aware the board can’t funnel Elizabeth Park students into Blossom Park or Sawmill Creek public schools, which are already near capacity, he said. Fisher said the ministry was also made aware of and, in fact, encouraged the board when it was set to begin spending the $1.2-million it had set aside for the engineering, design and permit process ahead of

the construction of the kindergarten to Grade 8 school, estimated to cost $13 million to $15 million. Now all that’s left is the province’s funding announcement and permit approvals. If those are secured early enough, the board could break ground this fall and the school can be ready for September 2017, said Fisher. “I never like saying a guarantee, but I think it’s going to happen. Everybody has aligned on the need that this new school is a priority and we’re running

out of runway to get this school built,” he said. The board’s application to the city was welcome news to Gloucester-South Nepean Coun. Michael Qaqish, who lobbied for funding for the school’s construction in a letter sent to Minister of Education Liz Sandals in January. “I’m not sure that there’s ever been an application from the school board where it didn’t actually go forward,” said Qaqish, whose ward includes Findlay Creek. “It’s only step one. There’s lots of steps to go, but

this is a positive step, that’s for sure.” A centrally located school in the community would give parents more options, said Eddy Kwan, a Findlay Creek resident whose three-and-a-half-yearold daughter, Olivia, will be attending junior kindergarten at St. Thomas More School in the Hunt Club Park community in September. Depending on when the new school is constructed, Kwan said he may enrol his second child, who will be born later this year. He may also consider transferring his daughter at that point “just for the sake of the location.” If he were to transfer Olivia, Kwan said it would mean shorter travel times. “She can just walk back home,” he said. The city’s approval of the board’s site plan control application is required to ensure any land developments are safe, functional and orderly and that applicants abide by development standards set out by the city and other agencies.

Chocolate lovers to unite for people living with dementia Erin McCracken

erin.mccracken@metroland.com

Satisfy your sweet tooth, give in to your chocolate cravings and, at the same time, help Ottawa residents living with dementia and their caregivers. Billed as Ottawa’s sweetest fundraiser, the 11th-annual Carefor Chocolate Competition will see nine competitors present their unique chocolate desserts on March 7 at Tudor Hall in the Hunt Club community in hopes of winning the coveted judges’ and people’s choice awards. “If you have chocolate cravings, this is definitely the place to go,” said Beth Monaco, Carefor fundraising specialist. The competition is the signature fundraiser for Carefor Health & Community Services, an Ottawa-based registered charity that provides health-care and communitysupport services. Through it, organizers hope to generate $35,000 to help pay for upgrades at three Carefor facilities that support people living with dementia, such as Alzheimer’s. Carefor runs adult day programs for people with dementia and seniors living alone who suffer from depression at a centre on Carling Avenue, and runs the 12-bed Guest House at the Perley and Rideau Veterans’ Health Centre that provides

KARL BUTLER

Last year’s Carefor Chocolate Competition drew 400 chocolate enthusiasts and raised $35,000. The 11th-annual fundraiser at Tudor Hall on March 7 will allow chocolate lovers to enjoy a savoury breakfast and sample and vote for their favourite chocolate desserts created by nine competitors. short-term respite care, as well as the 16-bed Richmond Care Home for women with Alzheimer’s. “So we need new flooring, new carpeting. We need the sprinkler system updated,” said Monaco. “We need some new furniture at all of those spaces.” The Carling Avenue day program centre operates six days a week, “so the furniture and the wear and tear on the facility … is quite heavy (and) the flooring is constantly needing to be changed,” she said. “The furniture needs

to be changed regularly just because of the use six days a week.” Last year, the sold-out chocolate competition drew 400 people and generated $35,000, allowing Carefor to subsidize its services for people in need. Two weeks before the upcoming event on March 7, 64 per cent of tickets had been sold. When guests arrive at 10 a.m., it won’t be long before their stomachs are filled with a savoury breakfast, topped off with the sweetness of a

chocolate and fruit fountain. They’ll have to find room to sample each of the nine chocolate dishes crafted by four new and five returning

competing chefs, and then vote for their favourites. Larger portions of the dessert entries will be plated and presented to four food experts for the chance to win the judges’ choice award. They include food journalist Ron Eade, who has judged the competition since its inception, Altaf Sovani, chair of the Algonquin College School of Hospitality and Tourism, chef and fifth-generation chocolatier Heinrich Stubbe of Stubbe Chocolates Ottawa, Algonquin College food services executive chef Russell Weir, who is also president of the Ottawa chapter of the Canadian Culinary Federation. “So for the judges, they’re looking for creativity, taste and presentation,” said Monaco. “And guests are looking at creativity and taste.” In the past, the edible works of art have featured chocolate drizzles, gold flakes and other tasty decorations. “They’re beautiful,” Mo-

naco said. The fundraiser will also feature the musical talents of a guitarist and vocalist. And guests will be able to bid on several silent auction items, including a Tiffany necklace, Ottawa Senators tickets, a tailor-made SLDR 460 driver and accompanying golf bag, an overnight stay and breakfast for two at the Westin Hotel Ottawa, National Arts Centre tickets, as well as several gift certificates for a wide range of services. “It certainly is a unique event,” said Monaco. “It’s a serious competition, but it’s very family friendly and fun, and a lot of the competitors know each other.” Carefor’s chocolate competition takes place March 7, from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m., at Tudor Hall, located at 3750 North Bowesville Rd. Tickets are $75 for adults and $40 for children, and are available by calling 613-7490239, ext. 2180, or visiting chocolate.carefor.ca.

Patients are in agreement that the emergency department of the Children’s Hospital of Eastern Ontario makes it one of the top performing hospitals in the province, according to a report published this month by National Research Corporation Canada. passion and skill our staff bring to work every day,� he said of the teaching hospital, which employs more than 2,500 doctors, nurses and other staff. Every year, CHEO helps more than 500,000 children, youth and their families from Ontario, Quebec and Nunavut. Over the course of one year, patients were surveyed about the care they received at Ontario hospitals in the areas of acute and pediatric inpatient, emergency department, maternity, rehabilitation, mental health and day surgery. The results were broken down into four categories: overall, teaching hospital and community and small hospitals.

The report is designed to shine the spotlight on Ontario hospitals “that have received excellent performance ratings, based on patient perceptions,� the research corporation said in its report. “The top performing hospitals that have been named in this report may have leading practices in place from which others can learn.� The corporation, which assists healthcare providers in measuring and improving the experience of their customers, is encouraging hospitals to share their knowledge about how best to deliver excellent patient experiences. In the wake of the report, CHEO said it will keep striving

for excellence. “We will continue to make improvements at CHEO through our CHEONext action plan, so that we can raise the bar for pediatric health-care quality,� Munter said. “We aim to deliver the best possible care to our patients, improving their lives, the lives of their families and our community.� The hospital’s action plan, which was developed from an in-depth strategic review at the hospital, outlines areas in which it aims to improve, such as inpatient experience.

Patients have given top marks to the emergency department at the Children’s Hospital of Eastern Ontario, one of the busiest pediatric emergency departments in Canada that sees more than 70,000 children and youth every year. CHEO, South Bruce Grey Health Centre’s Durham Hospital and the Grey Bruce Health Services’ Lion’s Head and Markdale hospitals were listed as the top hospitals in the province for overall emergency department care received, according to National Research Corporation Canada in its fourth-annual report on patient satisfaction and experience, published earlier this month. The findings are based on surveys done by patients who received care at hospitals in Ontario between April 1, 2013 and March 31, 2014. Surveys also reveal that patients of CHEO, Deep River and District Hospital and Grey Bruce Health Services said they would likely recommend these emergency departments to friends and family. “CHEO is a great hospital with a lot of passion for the work we do,� Alex Munter, CHEO president and chief executive officer, said in a statement on Feb. 17. “We are pleased to hear that the hard work and dedication of staff in our emergency department are being recognized. “Our high patient satisfaction score is a testament to the com-

Mooney’s Bay daycare closes despite extension hopes Daycare would suffer continued financial losses with extension: parish rep Erin McCracken

erin.mccracken@metroland.com

St. Elias Child Care & Family Resource Centre has closed its doors for good, despite attempts by concerned parents to lobby for an extension they said would give them more time to seek out alternate childcare. In the lead up to the Feb. 20 closure, a promising proposal was developed between parents of children at the nonprofit daycare and parish council representatives with the St. Elias Antiochian Orthodox Cathedral, which managed the centre in the Mooney’s Bay Park community. But the proposed terms outlining a daily increase of $6 per child, the requirement that parents enrol their children for a set timeframe and a minimum 40-child enrolment were ultimately denied by the parish council about two weeks before the site ceased operations. Despite the suggestion that fees be increased, the parish board said it would continue losing money if the closure were extended, reason why the board initially told parents the daycare would shut its doors. In a letter to parents on Jan. 20, the board said the daycare had suffered a 30 per cent decline in enrolment because of the full implementation of junior kindergarten last September. “Simply put, payroll objectives could not be met to make the operation even close to break even,” Charles Saikaley, an ex-officio parish council member and lawyer who provides the board with volunteer legal counsel, said in an email. “That, coupled with the withdrawal of about half the students in the weeks after they received notice, made the operation of the daycare economically infeasible. “St. Elias daycare centre regrets the closure, but it was

left with no choice.” An interview request with a parent representative who lobbied on behalf of parents was not returned before press time. The decision was disappointing to River Ward Coun. Riley Brockington, who brokered a meeting between parents and parish council members in the wake of the closure announcement in January. “I thought there was hope here for an acceptable resolution that both sides could live with in the interim until August, but as more and more parents found placements and began to withdraw their child or children, the financial framework that the church was looking at operating under just wasn’t feasible anymore,” he said.

The closure and outpouring of concern from parents who initially struggled to find other childcare options in the ward in the lead up to St. Elias’ closure underscores the need for an established daycare operation in River Ward, said Brockington, who has expressed this need since late January. There are home-based daycares throughout the ward as well as one nursery school, “but as an established entity in the community or a church … that is not happening,” he said. St. Elias parents expressed alarm and were left scrambling after they were informed by the parish council in a letter on Jan. 20 that the childcare centre would close, giving them one month to find spots elsewhere for their children. Several concerned parents then met with local municipal, provincial and federal political representatives on Jan. 24. Though a number of possible daycare sites were floated as replacements, including

the federal government’s Sir Charles Tupper building on Riverside Drive and the Villa Manconi Long-Term Care Centre in Nepean – both home to former daycares – nothing could be established in the short term. In the days that followed, parent reps met with parish council members, who agreed to review the Feb. 20 closure date and examine staffing, cost-cutting measures and potential fee increases that could make an Aug. 31 extension financially possible, and give parents more time. According to parent reps, 46 children were still enrolled at the centre as of Feb. 2. That same night, the 12-member parish council was expected to meet and review the proposed terms. The extension was turned down, with the council saying it could not agree on a financial plan that would allow the facility to continue until the end of August. In addition to payroll costs, the council told parents that enrolment had dipped to 29 children with more departures expected, and that some staff had already found work elsewhere. “Unfortunately, and despite the best efforts of the daycare committee – a volunteer group of parishioners – who spent a lot of time in the past three months trying to make it work, the continued operation of the daycare was not feasible,” Saikaley told The Ottawa South News. Brockington said that while there was “overwhelming support” among parents for the centre to continue, many immediately began looking elsewhere given the uncertainty about the daycare’s future. “I can’t blame them for that. I’m a parent with children in childcare,” he said. In the wake of the parish council’s decision not to grant the extension, Brockington said his office did not receive calls from St. Elias parents seeking help finding other daycare. Families receiving subsidized care at the Mooney’s Bay Park centre have been successful in making alternative arrangements, he said.

Nepean brewery offers new suds on Colonnade Road Alex Robinson

alex.robinson@metroland.com

Ottawa beer aficionados can add Nita Beer to the ever-growing list of craft breweries popping up in the nation’s capital. The Nepean brewery opened its doors, at 190 Colonnade Rd., in the end of January and offers an expanding menu of craft beers, including an ale, a bitter and an IPA. In addition to providing the city’s thirsty with new beverage options, the brewery’s owner, Andy Nita, hopes it can become somewhere home brewers come to learn about their craft. “It’ll be good for us to help home brewers so we can give back to the beer community,” he said. Nita was struck by the sense of community among the region’s breweries since he started the process to open his own. A number of established breweries such as Kichesippi Beer and Broadhead Brewing have helped Nita out with advice while he worked out kinks along the way. Nita plans to host brewers for events such as speaking series and panel discussions. He’s also hoping to get feedback from home brewers on his own beer to make it even better. “We’re going to look to them to help shape our future beers,” he said. Nita, an electrical contractor

by trade, started the brewery with his wife, Bridget Carey, who serves as the brewery’s chief financial officer. Nita first started home brewing beer six years ago, and eventually decided he wanted to open his own brewery. Before he set his plan into action, Nita stayed up many long nights reading about the brewing process, poring through thousands of pages to learn as much as he could. “It was a lot of homework but I think it paid off,” he said. “Until you’ve actually implemented your knowledge in practice you don’t know how things will result.” Carey did some market research, came up with a business plan for the brewery, and the duo took it from there. Now that the brewery’s open, one of Nita’s main concerns is to keep the beer flowing to keep up with demand. “While some small brewers sell out, we want to ensure we’ve always got supply to meet demand,” Nita said. The brewery currently only sells kegs and large glass jugs called growlers, but he hopes to soon start producing cans so the product can get into the LCBO by the end of the year. Nita’s flagship beer is an ale called Ten12, which he describes as a beer that “tastes like a pilsner with the feel of an ale.”

The brewery hopes to attract both new beer drinkers and craft beer enthusiasts to its beers, which range from some more accessible ales to others only a hop head could enjoy. “As long as we craft the beers that apply to a broad community, we should be able to float the business and grow it,” Nita said. “But we’re not just putting out a commodity. We want to make sure to have beers that apply to the market at large, but also the craft beer enthusiasts.” Nita plans to put out a seasonal beer every quarter. He’s preparing a stout, which he hopes will be ready for St. Patrick’s Day. He’s also hoping to have a lager for the spring or summer and a harvest ale in the early fall. Nita has a staff of five at the moment, but anticipates the brewery will employ more people as it expands. He acknowledges that as it grows, he will eventually have to step back from the brewing process and let his assistant brewer, Adrian Huisman, take over. But Nita might not be willing to give up one of his favourite parts of the process so far – the job of cleaning out the brew kettle after making a fresh batch. “It’s a simple task, but it was so peaceful and a nice moment,” he said. “It was the calm after the storm. I don’t ever want to give that up.”

INGREDIENTS

• 25 ml (2 tbsp) vegetable oil • 1.5 kg (3 lb) pork shoulder roast, trimmed and cut into 2.5-centimetre (1-inch) cubes • 2 ml (1/4 tsp) each salt and pepper • 2 onions, diced • 4 cloves garlic, minced • 15 ml (1 tbsp) minced chipotle pepper in adobo sauce • 5 ml (1 tsp) each ground cumin, chili powder and dried oregano leaves • 1 butternut squash, peeled, seeded and cut into 2.5 cm (1-inch)

PREPARATION

In a large Dutch oven, heat half of the oil over mediumhigh heat. Season the pork with salt and pepper and cook in batches, stirring, until it’s dark brown, about eight minutes, adding more oil as needed. Remove the pork with a slotted spoon, leaving the fat in pan. Add the onions, garlic, chipotle pepper, cumin, chili powder and oregano to the Dutch oven, and cook, stirring until softened for about five

minutes. Stir in the squash to coat. Add the tomatoes and broth, and bring to a boil, stirring to remove any brown bits from bottom of pan. Return the pork to the Dutch oven. Reduce heat and simmer covered over low heat until pork and squash are very tender, about two hours. (Alternately, place it in a 160 C/325 F oven) Stir in the coriander and lime juice. Tip: To make it easier to peel the squash, pierce the squash all over with a small sharp knife. Place on plate and microwave on high for one minute. Let cool slightly and peel. Cut it in half to remove the seeds with a spoon. Foodland Ontario

Ice house played pivotal role on the farm

T

he little black building on the north side of the barn had been ready since the fall. To me, it always looked like it was about to topple over, and yet it was solid. It had no windows, and the only door was nothing more than a slit in one side, just wide enough to take a large block of ice and the body of the person sent out to get a block for the ice box. That was always my sister Audrey, or my oldest brother Everett, both of whom were considered big enough and capable of abiding by all the rules set down for going in and out of the ice house: be quick about it, close the door behind you and brush off as much sawdust off the block of ice as you can before lugging it into the house. The ice house was made ready by the fall. For days the door was allowed to hang open, so that any remnants of the left over ice would melt and the building got a thorough chilling. My brothers would spend days shoveling out the wet sawdust and spreading it behind the silo where

for the “fitness

it rested until it rotted into nothingness. I could never understand why the sawdust couldn’t be used over and over again, but Father said the ice kept better with good dry sawdust, and besides, when the temperatures dipped way below zero, the clumps would freeze into hard and solid masses. By the last of November, most of the sawing bees in the Northcote area would be over. Everyone’s wood was sitting in piles in the back yards, ready to be loaded into the summer kitchen for the long cold days and nights ahead. And beside the wood, where the saw had been, there were small piles of sawdust, but there was never enough to fill the icehouses. And so, every year after the harvest was done, and fall was crisp in

the air, Father and the brothers would make trips to the saw mill where the owner was more than glad to part with however much sawdust we wanted. The wagon would be hitched up with the team and the job of hauling the sawdust would begin. Load it on, and then load it off. Piled outside the ice house the mountain grew higher and higher until Father thought there was enough to do the job. This would take days, and sometimes weeks before there was enough. And the job had to be done between the other farm chores, and when the brothers were off school. So it was usually done on a Saturday when every hand could help. As for my sister Audrey and me, there was little we could do, other than make sure the barn cats were kept out of the little black ice house. When Father thought there was enough sawdust, it all had to be moved into the icehouse. It was piled high up the walls, like pastry in a pie shell, and there would be a foot-high layer on the floor. Whatever was left over was piled

against one wall away from the small slit of a door. My brother Everett said this was the hardest job because there was no light in the icehouse, and everything was done by feel. Father sometimes hung a lantern on a nail from a rafter, but it did little more than cast shadows. The sawdust was clean and fluffy and gave off the most wonderful smell. Father would check the roof to make sure it was tightly sealed and that no rain would get in. The roof slanted to the ground on one side so that the snow would slide off easily. It would never do to add moisture to the fresh sawdust before it had it come in contact with the ice. And then when it had all been moved inside, the wood lock was put in place to keep everything dry until Father was ready to haul in the ice. And then the waiting game began. The winter, I used to think, was half over before Father was able to bring in the blocks of ice from the Bonnecherre River. The water had to be frozen solid and Father liked to take the blocks from the centre where it ran deepest and clearest. It was usually early January, or even into February, before Father

thought the river was ready. And then when the cutting began, the blocks would be hauled up over the West Hill and across the fields to the little ice house. One by one, the entire floor would be covered with the blocks, weighing close to 45 kilograms each, and then they too would be covered with the clean sawdust. And so it went, until the little house was full, each block wrapped in its winter cloak. The exercise was not to keep the ice frozen in the winter – the cold Renfrew temperatures looked after that – but to make sure the ice would not melt over the long summer months ahead. And it was always like a miracle to me, that something as simple as covering the ice with sawdust would keep it as solid as if it had just come out of the Bonnecherre. Father would say a lot of things had to match up: the ice house had to be light proof, and the door small, to let in as little warmth as possible when it was opened, and the building had to be on the north side of the barn. And all those things together kept the ice from melting. The ice house, Mother said, was the most important building on the farm, right up there in importance

Greely Players alumni comes full circle in Peter Pan Manotick dancer Chris Stuewe leading Greely Players choreography Emma Jackson

emma.jackson@metroland.com

Dancer and choreographer Chris Stuewe is finding himself back where it all started as he tackles the choreography for the Greely Players’ production of Peter Pan this spring. The Manotick resident made his Greely stage debut at the age of 11 when he was cast as Oliver, the lead role in the community theatre’s production that year. Stuewe ended up in the drama program at Canterbury High School, later switching to South Carleton for his senior years, but he never again had the time to participate in a Greely Players musical. Until now, that is.

dancing seriously in Grade 11. As a member of the school’s football and rugby teams, he and his teammates were asked to accompany some of the school’s dancers in an annual performance. He signed up, and surprised himself when he took an immediate liking to it. “I love music, I love being physical and I love being creative. So I put all three of my favourite skills together and created a really cool combination,” he said. By Grade 12 Stuewe was SUBMITTED fully immersed in South CarManotick dancer Chris Stuewe is helping the Greely leton’s top-notch dance proPlayers develop choreography for its spring production of gram.

was an athlete and I played contact sports, it gave me the advantage of dancing like a guy.” He said dance classes for young kids focus mainly on what the girls are doing, and the boys just follow along. “If the girls are doing a bootie shake, the guy’s doing a bootie shake. As he gets older it never changes,” he said. Stuewe has put his unique advantages to good use; today he’s an accomplished dancer, having spent two years studying at the Broadway Dance Centre in New York and three summers at the Debbie Allan Dance Academy in Los Angeles. He’s a personal trainer at Tony Greco Fitness in Manotick, but has plans to take his dancing on the road to the United Kingdom and south of the border next year. In the meantime, though, Stuewe said he’s pleased he

has come full circle. “Greely Players kind of gave me my first real start,” Stuewe said. “I went to Canterbury due to Greely Players.” He said Peter Pan traditionally features a lot of ballet elements, and many of the leads have major dance solos – including Peter’s famous dance with his shadow. Stuewe said one of the biggest challenges is convincing the actors they can actually do it. “I’m taking actors and turning them into dancers,” he said. “You have to take your time teaching it. It’s not about simplifying things, it’s about making them understand what they’re about to do, and a big thing is getting them to not be afraid to do it.” The Greely Players’ Peter Pan will be staged at the Greely community centre March 25 to 29. Tickets are on sale now at greelyplayers.org.

worse.” These days, the characters in his sketches are less off-the-wall. “We’re trying to be more satirical and have more to say as we get older,” Kennedy said. Kennedy said his first love is improv, but sketch comedy is becoming a bigger part of his work. Having an open mind about the direction comedy can take you is important in a job that can be pretty unstable, he said. “What I’ve found with this work is if you’re looking to do one specific job, you could end up being disappointed because shows don’t last very long or you’re not a good fit for it,” he said. “It’s about having a broader goal of just working in the medium and working every day to get better at what you do. Treat it with the consistency that an accountant would.” He and his comedic part-

ner – who together become Accidental Company – are returning to the festival after a hiatus of a few years. This will be their sixth time performing at the festival, which this year boasts Saturday Night Live performer Kate McKinnon as its headliner. Kennedy said he hopes to come home for the Ottawa Improv Festival this summer, but he still needs to be accepted on the roster. “I’ve always wanted to get back to Ottawa and perform for my old high school friends and family,” he said.

Greely resident Jordan Kennedy and his sketch comedy partner Brian Crosby will return to the Toronto Sketch Comedy Festival this March for 10th anniversary celebrations. SUBMITTED

Greely native Jordan Kennedy will breathe new life into that age-old debate between city dwellers and rural folk during two performances at the Toronto Sketch Comedy Festival next month. Kennedy grew up south of Ottawa, attending Greely Elementary School, Castor Valley Elementary School and then St. Mark High School. He moved to Toronto as a young adult to immerse himself in the comedic genius often found in places like the Second City, which counts celebrities such as Dan Aykroyd, Catherine O’Hara, Martin Short and Eugene Levy among its alumni. Kennedy will pit his rural upbringing against his current urban lifestyle to offer a new perspective on the question during the festival, which runs March 5 to

15 at several venues across the city. “The pros are that (rural life is) super safe and ... you get to have land and breathe clean, crisp air,” Kennedy said. “When I go back I can literally feel my lungs saying, ‘This is what I’m supposed to be breathing.’” Kennedy’s penchant for performance materialized early, developing into a well-earned reputation as the class smart aleck at St. Mark High School. He had lots of support from his friends, who helped him pull off absurdist gags – like the time they threw a goodbye party for a vice-principal who wasn’t actually leaving. “We got a cake and sang For He’s a Jolly Good Fellow,” Kennedy laughed. “They knew we should be punished but they didn’t know how or why. We would try to explain ourselves which would obviously make things much

ARRESTS MADE OTTAWA POLICE SERVICE

Crime Stoppers is offering its maximum $2,000 reward in hopes that it will garner anonymous tips that can help police solve the robbery of a bank in the 1600 block of Montreal Road in Beacon Hill on Feb. 5. OTTAWA POLICE SERVICE

Ottawa police are hoping a $2,000 Crime Stoppers award will encourage someone to help them identify this suspect in connection with a bank robbery in the 2300 block of St. Joseph Boulevard in Orléans on Feb. 8. are assisting. Police and Crime Stoppers are hoping someone can identify a male suspect who allegedly held up a bank at gun point in the 1600 block of Montreal Road in Beacon Hill on Feb. 5 around 8:30 a.m. Investigators said the Englishspeaking man who spoke quietly and with a stutter passed a note demanding money and took a handgun out of his pocket. No one was injured, and the suspect made off with an undisclosed amount of cash. In Orléans, a male suspect entered a bank in the 2300 block of St. Joseph Boulevard on Feb. 8. Police said he passed a note to an employee demanding money and indicated he was armed with a gun, though eyewitnesses didn’t see one. He left the bank without the cash he was after, but Haarbosch declined to say why. The hope now is the suspects can be identified by those who know them despite their attempts to hide their faces. “That’s one of the challenges

that we face this time of year,” said Haarbosch. “I still maintain there are people out there who know who these guys are, that they have information that they’re doing the robbery and know about it, and that’s why were hoping that $2,000 reward will

compel somebody to make a call to Crime Stoppers.” In the Beacon Hill robbery, the suspect is described by police as a black male with a dark complexion, in his mid to late 20s and between five-foot-seven and five-foot-10. He was wearing a black jacket, dark pants, black stretch gloves with rubber grip, a black knit scarf or balaclava and a black hat with the hood up. In the Orléans case, the suspect is

Police recently made an arrest in two bank robberies in Orléans and on Ogilvie Road with the arrest on Feb. 19 of a male suspect. Witnesses tackled the suspect inside the Rideau Centre when he allegedly smashed a jewelry store display case with a hammer and tried to make off with a watch. In addition to facing robbery charges for the Rideau Centre incident, an 18-year-old Ottawa man has also been charged with two bank robberies, one in the 200 block of Centrum Boulevard in Orléans on Feb. 17 and another in the 1900 block of Ogilvie Road on Feb. 18. Anyone with information on the unsolved robberies is asked to provide anonymous tips to Crime Stoppers by calling 613-233-8477, or contact the Ottawa police robbery unit at 613-236-1222, ext. 5116.

Police and Crime Stoppers are taking a different approach to tackle the rising number of bank robberies in Ottawa. The agencies are hoping the offer of the maximum $2,000 reward available from Crime Stoppers will entice tipsters to identify two suspects wanted in connection with two unsolved bank robberies in Beacon Hill and Orléans. It’s been at least five years since the region’s Crime Stoppers specifically said it would offer its top cash reward. “It’s very rare,” said Richard McMullen, chairman of National Capital Area Crime Stoppers, a non-profit organization that offers cash to anonymous callers who offer information leading to an arrest and prosecution in court. “One (reason for the release) is the frequency of bank robberies that we’ve seen in the region that’s led police to look for the public’s assistance and Crime Stoppers’ assistance specifically to help them in their investigation,” he said. In bank robberies, suspects don’t typically get away with significant amounts of money, “but their impacts on the staff and the public and the potential for risk is there every time somebody is engaging in that type of crime,” McMullen said. There have been 16 bank robberies in Ottawa so far this year, more than half of the 30 police investigated in 2014. By this time last year, they had dealt with six. The Ottawa police robbery unit has no immediate plans to request more officers for the squad to help curb the spike in bank robberies, “but we’re working closely with units within the police service,” said Staff Sgt. Michael Haarbosch, head of the robbery unit. “The neighbourhood officers are helping us out a little bit.” Citing investigative reasons, he declined to reveal the other units that
