QNX aims to create the OS of automated cars Adam Kveton

adam.kveton@metroland.com

It won’t be long.

Not today, not tomorrow and not five years from now, but not long after, your car, your neighbour’s car, and just about everyone’s car will be driving itself.

“I’ve been telling people 10 to 15 years.”

That’s the prediction from Grant Courville, the senior director of product

management for QNX Software Systems – an operations system software developer, and a subsidiary of BlackBerry.

It’s not a prediction to take lightly.

QNX software shipped in more than 20 million car systems last year – things like infotainment systems, telematics, digital clusters, and every OnStar system – said Courville.

Police issue 79 provincial offence notices to distracted drivers in blitz Staff

Police in Ottawa and Gatineau issued 79 provincial offence notices to drivers using cell phones on March 22 as part of the Leave the Phone Alone distracted driving enforcement campaign.

The campaign saw officers in the two cities conduct citywide blitzes that morning, targeting drivers using the handheld devices.

“With advance warning about (the) campaign, we were pleased to see that drivers

heeded the warning to focus on their driving,” said Ottawa police Sgt. Denis Hull. “These

These traffic initiatives serve as a reminder that distracted driving is dangerous every day.

traffic initiatives serve as a reminder that distracted driving is dangerous every day and

drivers should always make the choice to leave the phone alone.”

According to the Ottawa Police Service’s 2015 public survey, the top concern identified by residents on a city-wide level was distracted driving, followed by speeding, street gangs, the presence of drugs and youth crime. Distracted driving was also listed as the top concern on the neighbourhood level.

Following the campaign, police listed the roles that everyone can play to prevent tex-

ting or talking while driving, including: • Drivers can put their phones away while driving; • Passengers can remind drivers to focus on their driving if they reach for the phone; • Children can remind parents not to drive distracted; • Phone users can first ensure that the person they are calling or texting isn’t driving. If they are, tell them to wait until they can safely talk or text.

Anyone can take a pledge not to text and drive at Leavethephonealone.ca.

Pharmacist to contest sexual abuse allegations members of the profession as disgraceful, dishonourable or unprofessional.

The accuracy of the allegations has not been ruled on by the Ontario College of Pharmacists. The discipline committee of the college will deal with the matter from Sept. 6 to 9 in Toronto. Ying is not facing any criminal charges.

According to a public document on the college’s website, Ying is alleged to

An Arnprior pharmacist says he will fight allegations he sexually abused a patient while employed at a Walmart pharmacy in Kanata and/or at Victoria Pharmacy in Ottawa.

He told Metroland Media that the allegations are a “personal vendetta.”

have committed professional misconduct while employed as a pharmacist in Kanata or elsewhere in Ottawa.

“It is alleged that … you failed to maintain the professional boundaries of the pharmacist-patient relationship when you developed a non-professional, personal relationship with the patient or former patient, in or about January 2013 to June 2013, and continued to pursue that relationship thereafter, until in or about June 2014, and/or you engaged in sexual abuse of the patient, on one or more occasions, in or about January 2013 to June 2013,” reads the document.

The patient’s name does not appear.

Speaking on March 13, Ying said an ex-girlfriend who has since moved to England made the allegations as “retaliation” before she left.

He said it is true that he moved to Toronto to pursue the relationship, but that it was he who broke it off.

“The allegations were made on a personal vendetta,” Ying said, “not professional. The relationship didn’t work out and she was upset obviously.”

Ying, a soft-spoken young man, said he has been a professional pharmacist for five years.

He said the move is not an admission of guilt.

Matt Subhi is another co-owner. He said Ying disclosed the allegations recently.

“We will have to wait and see what the College of Pharmacists decide,” Subhi said.

If found guilty, the college could suspend or revoke his licence, have him pay a fine of up to $35,000, have him reimburse the college for funding provided to the patient for counselling, and have him pay the college’s legal fees.

QNX, a software systems developer headquartered in Kanata, is aiming its sites at the automated car market, with ambitions of creating the most prolific operating system for car manufacturers looking to automate their vehicles.

Continued from page 1

“Chances are that if you have a vehicle with an infotainment system, it’s running QNX,” he said.

But QNX is aiming to branch out into a new potential market in a big way – automated driving.

QNX revealed some of the tech systems it’s been working on, which the software developer refers to as building blocks towards autonomous drive, in January at CES 2016, which is one of the largest showcases for new consumer electronics.

The big announcement was that QNX aims to create an operating system that can safely and consistently coordinate between computer algorithms and hardware like cameras, radar and other sensors to allow a road vehicle to drive autonomously. QNX is making the software that integrates those elements only, not the algorithms or tech behind it.

“From a QNX perspective,

everything we do is aimed at full autonomous drive,” said Courville.

While it’s a new direction for the developer, it harkens back to QNX’s pedigree as a provider of life-critical systems in hospitals, industry and elsewhere.

“You wont’ find QNX on the desktop. We never focused on that, that wasn’t our world,” said Courville. “We focused on devices and systems where essentially they have to be ultra-reliable, so they have to work well, work predictably and work all the time.”

“We are doing nuclear reactor monitoring, we are involved in high speed rail, laser eye surgery, robotic surgery, MRI systems,” he said.

Now, software in cars is moving from being largely for entertainment purposes to being part of safety systems where, in some cases, the software will be responsible for life or death decisions.

Considering QNX’s emphasis on software built for

safety and security, and its history with the auto industry, working on an OS for automated cars is natural, said Courville.

“Since the 80s we’ve been in safety critical systems and now seeing autonomous drive in safety systems becoming more at the forefront of automotive software, it speaks to our DNA, you know: what makes us different, what makes us ideal for these kinds of environments.”

AUTOMATION NOW

Courville estimates that autonomous drive will be common in cars in about 10 or 15 years, though there are some instances of it now, with the Tesla Model S including an autopilot option that uses a variety of sensors to remain in a lane, steer, maintain and adjust speed and park. The Google Car has also traveled many kilometres on its own.

City Councillor Kanata South Week in Review One of the few negatives to the arrival of spring is the return of vandalism and the increase in thefts from unlocked cars. Please help keep our crime rate as one of the lowest in the city by being aware of what is going on near you and reporting suspicious activity.

Two weeks ago the new benches that were donated for residents to use at Meadowbreeze Park were severely damaged. We are waiting for the report on whether the benches can be repaired or if they will need to be removed. If people continue to vandalize benches and other pieces of park equipment, then we all lose the use of them and it will be even harder to get more park enhancements. I ask everyone to keep an eye out and report vandalism to help keep our community a great place to live, work and play.

Paint it Up! The City of Ottawa has funding available for outdoor mural art projects that support graffiti prevention, youth empowerment, community safety and the beautification of Ottawa neighbourhoods.

For more information about funding, please visit www.crimepreventionottawa.ca, for the program guidelines and application form.

Projects must contribute to a clean, safe and beautiful city by engaging neighbourhoods and youth in a constructive learning process to create murals to prevent or deter graffiti.

Applications must be postmarked, e-mailed, or received by 4 p.m. Monday, April 4th, 2016.

But it’s widespread adoption of automated vehicles is what QNX is looking at.

“It’s well on its way,” said Courville of automated drive technology.

Some of the tech applications that QNX is working on include digital clusters that replace a car’s usual dials with a screen that can show car speeds, music selections and maps that display warning based on sensor data like cameras, lidar, radar and others.

They are also looking into heads up displays, with information like direction arrows, gas station locations, car proximity and more being identified based on GPS information and video cameras to be displayed on a vehicle’s windshield.

QNX brought demonstrations of both of those applications to CES, built into a Jeep and a Toyota Highlander.

Though a video screen in front of the car simulated the Highlander’s heads up display, the demonstration had both vehicles making real-time decisions based on a pre-recorded video of a

vehicle driving down streets.

These kinds of applications are seen as interim steps towards automated driving.

But, for widespread automated drive to become a reality, new technology will have to be embedded not just in cars but in traffic infrastructure as well, said Courville.

QNX also demonstrated some of the advantages of vehicle-to-vehicle communication (V2V) and vehicle-toinfrastructure communication (V2I) with a video.

The idea is that nearby cars who can communicate with each other would be able to alert drivers to oncoming vehicles in passing lanes, a vehicle that has had its breaks slammed on unexpectedly and more. The cars could even take action themselves based on that information.

However, there are even more advantages if infrastructure, like street lights, are able to communicate with vehicles as well. A street light could, for instance, let a car know how much longer there remains until a red light becomes a green light, allowing a driver or their vehicle itself to time the light. The traffic

light could also show when a green light will go to a yellow, or even communicate to a city’s traffic centre if there is some problem with vehicles at a given intersection.

Trials of V2V and V2I technologies are being funded by the US Department of Transportation in New York City, Tampa Bay and parts of Wyoming, while Cadillac is rumoured to be deploying V2V technologies in its vehicles in the next few years.

TECH VS REGULATION

The technology for autonomous driving, which QNX is working to create an OS for, is on its way, and autonomous cars are going to become a common reality, said Courville. But it’s not the technology that will determine when autonomous driving becomes widespread – it’s acceptance of it that will.

How quickly government regulations change to incorporate autonomous cars and how quickly customers grow to accept and trust autonomous cars will be the determining factors, said Courville.

Various governments have signalled interested in test-

ing autonomous vehicles and incorporating some of the interim steps towards that.

The Ontario government announced that it is launching a pilot project to allow for the testing of automated vehicles on Ontario Roads, while the city of Stratford, Ont., is hoping to be the premier place to do those tests.

Over the years, the city has built city-wide Wi-Fi into its infrastructure, removing one of the cost barriers to testing V2V and V2I technology.

As the world moves towards automated cars being the norm, as Courville seems pretty sure it is, some of the interim steps will likely be transport trucks using automated drive systems on highways or specifically designated corridors, and then regular cars able to use automated drive on those specific corridors, with suburban neighbourhoods likely being one of the last places autonomous drive is accepted.

Regardless, it’s an exciting time to be working for QNX, said Courville.

“It’s awesome,” he said.

“We want to dominate the software foundation of the vehicle … it’s a perfect fit for us. It’s exciting.”

The gardener’s garden

T

here’s an old adage that says never judge a gardener by his own garden.

The gardener is too busy tending to others’ gardens to bother working on his own.

His garden is therefore left to become overgrown or wither and die, while the gardens of his clients are neatly tended, and thus bloom and prosper.

Dealing with an extended family emergency recently, I started thinking more seriously about the gardener’s garden. There are a wide range of professional skills in my extended family, and I’m sure many people are very good at their jobs. But frankly, when it came time for us to use those skills in a crisis situation, we all fell down.

Could it be that we’re all prone to gardener’s garden syndrome when attempting to deal with our own lives and families?

We presume people will step up in their areas of expertise. I should be the great communicator; the financial advisor must have a good succession plan in place for his business; the social worker in the family is presumed to be resourceful and a good listener.

In the most recent scenario, in fact, none of us stepped up. Not only did we not step up, but I noted remarkable failure in each of us in our presumed areas of

BRYNNA LESLIE Capital Muse expertise.

Take me, for example. In my professional life, I can conduct interviews, write correspondence and rapidly find the right turn of phrase to persuade people toward my way of thinking. With my family, on the other hand, I found myself frequently exaggerating, over-communicating and generally annoying, rather than persuading, those around me.

As for writing, even scripting a shopping list was a chore. Don’t get me started on the lackadaisical thank you cards I crafted “on behalf of.” A trained monkey could have done a better job.

The social worker in the family, whom we expected to be a great asset to “figuring out next steps,” instead outtalked everyone. She failed to listen to the experts on the case, frequently interrupting or groundlessly questioning their assessments. When it came to finding resources, she couldn’t seem to identify

much that was useful, instead overwhelming us with unrealistic options.

The financial advisor, who is incredibly successful helping small business owners and individuals plan for the future admitted there was no succession plan. So much for long-term planning.

Dealing with an extended family emergency recently, I started thinking more seriously about the gardener’s garden

Maybe I’m too harsh in my critique. After all, the disappointment in myself and others may have had something to do with unful-

filled expectations. But on a deeper level, I think many of us fail to bring our best professional assets to bear on our personal lives. I know a woman who is a professional cleaner. She’s frequently telling me how cluttered and dusty her own house is because she’s rarely home. One friend, who works as a family therapist is divorced and has a teenager struggling with addiction, yet she’s managed to keep countless families together in a harmonious fashion. A lawyer pal is a force to be reckoned with in the courtroom – a master litigator -- and yet she doesn’t fight in a fair or reasonable fashion when it comes to her personal relationships.

When I’m in work mode, I put on a different hat. My brain is trained to be precise in language. Correspondence with clients is brief, clear and polite, and well thought out. The social worker can be a great listener and a great resource for her clients, precisely because she has no deep emotional connection to them, which offers an element of objectivity.

As for the financial planner? Well, there’s really no excuse for him. He is the true gardener among us. He has tended to the finances and businesses of clients extremely well, at the expense of his own. But frankly, he should have had a succession plan.

Federal budget good news for Ottawa

T

he new federal budget may be awash in red ink, but the federal Liberals did exactly what they promised they would, pouring money in the coming years into infrastructure and transit systems that have been on the wish list for municipalities for years, including here in Ottawa.

As Liberal Orléans MP Andrew Leslie says, the budget is good for light rail transit development in Ottawa.

The budget allocates $3.4 billion to public transit infrastructure over the next three years through a new Public Transit Infrastructure Fund, and listed accelerated design for new light rail transit lines in greater Vancouver and Ottawa as examples of projects that might see money from the new fund.

This is music to the ears of Ottawa Mayor Jim Watson and those sitting around the council table in Ottawa who hope to not only go forward with their grandiose plans for LRT in the nation’s capital, but hope to make some of the future phases of the massive multi-billion dollar project move forward at a faster pace.

In fact, Leslie thinks fast tracking extensions of LRT to Trim Road and the airport, and beyond may be something that is now possible.

“Mayor Jim Watson is doing a great job at articulating that these phase two pluses should be looked at as the same sort of package,” Leslie told Metroland Media after the budget was presented in the House of Commons last week.

“So we have to get it from Blair to Place d’Orléans, then to Trim, but my intention is don’t stop. Don’t go to Place d’Orléans and say, ‘Oh, we’re done.’ Keep going.

And the same thing with the airport extension. Don’t stop, just keep going.”

“Keep going” sounds good, although exactly how much of the public transit infrastructure fund that the City of Ottawa will eventually get its hands on will have to be determined in the future as Ottawa will be competing with numerous other cities in Canada seeking that cash.

But for now, Ottawa’s LRT plans seem to have been given a greenlight to speed up in the coming years.

Lessons to be learned from Ford Nation

B

y now you’ve had your fill of commentary on the late Toronto mayor, Rob Ford. As always, when a famous person dies, there is a tendency to sugarcoat and sentimentalize. Mortal enemies of the deceased praise his good qualities and you don’t believe them for a minute.

So it was with Ford, but that’s the way it usually is. The old expression is “don’t speak ill of the dead”, and, for most of us, it doesn’t feel comfortable to do otherwise.

But what is Rob Ford’s real legacy? He will not go down in history as a great mayor, although some admired his conservative ideas. Personally, he was a mess, a guy who struggled with drugs and alcohol, and attracted either

The elites — political, media and intellectual — dismissed him as a clown. They couldn’t understand how anyone could vote for such a person. But people could, and one of the reasons they could was because they had come to resent elite opinion. When the elites sneered at Rob Ford, the people who liked him felt sneered at too.

Stormwater fees need work To the editor,

The city’s proposal to initiate a stormwater fee separate from water and waste water charges has stirred much passion. In the heat of the argument, the basic principle underlying a stormwater fee needs to be reasserted: you pave, you pay.

These facts will also help clear the fog: * managing stormwater (runoff from rain or snowmelt) has nothing to do with providing drinking water to residents and businesses or with managing their wastewater (formerly known as sewage); * roadside ditches and culverts are part of our stormwater infrastructure – not to be confused with municipal drains that benefit farmers’ fields and fall under a totally separate financing and maintenance regime; * a small but significant number of households and a smaller number of businesses, mostly in rural but also in some urban areas, do not receive a water bill, yet many of them do have rainwater run off their properties.

Two straightforward directives follow from the principle of you pave, you pay: 1. paying for capital and operating costs of stormwater infrastructure (from ditches to pipes and ponds to treatment devices) should be in proportion to the amount of hard (impervious) surface on one’s property; 2. reducing the amount of runoff at one’s property should be rewarded by seeing one’s payments lowered.

This means that setting stormwater fees in proportion to assessed property values may be administratively simple but is neither fair nor logical, and offers no way to provide incentives for reducing run-off.

We could be asked to pay for stormwater infrastructure either on the tax bill or on the water bill but the water bill has the edge. We’ll see what we pay every other month, not just twice a year, and we’ll be happy to see the reward for efforts at reducing runoff that much more often.

Psychologically, seeing the charge on the tax bill could suggest that assessed property values and stormwater management are related, which they are not.

Is providing incentives to reduce runoff at the lot level – resulting in less pollution and less need for infrastructure – an impossible dream? Not at all! Dozens of cities across North America have done it.

Not all have succeeded, so getting the rate structure and incentive design right is important.

Ottawa’s extensive rural areas present a complex picture. Many rural residences have their own wells and septic fields and therefore do not help pay for the cost of stormwater management in the way residents who receive a water bill do. Others have one but not the other.

Some infrastructure elements such as ditches and swales may be privately owned and controlled, or are financed by local improvement charges. Certain road maintenance work also serves

stormwater management but how the city is accounting for this is not clear.

The city’s proposals do not come to grips with this complexity and finding out who pays how for what is fiendishly difficult. It would appear that the city has more homework to do to clarify the status quo and seek consensus on a fair solution.

MINIMIZING RUNOFF

The controversy over a stormwater fee is obscuring a key point: controlling stormwater volumes at the lot level delivers proven benefits. They come in addition to improved quality of the runoff and include reduction of peak flows, reduced flooding, reduced erosion and sedimentation in receiving water bodies, improved groundwater recharge, better aquatic habitat and greater resilience to climate change.

Reducing stormwater runoff at source is also good for the city’s finances. Storm sewers suffer less wear and tear, sediment in stormwater ponds accumulates less rapidly and creek erosion is reduced, resulting in less maintenance and rehabilitation costs.

The current review of the city’s water rate structure seems geared exclusively at tapping into new revenue streams and ignores the opportunity to move us one step closer to a more sustainable way of living. The opportunity should not be wasted.

Two arrested for rash of Ottawa break-ins

Serving Constituents of Kanata-Carleton

Suspects allegedly responsible for Monahan B&E

Member of Parliament Kanata-Carleton

Adam Kveton

adam.kveton@metroland.com

Supporting our Belgian Friends I spoke this week in the House of Commons about the horrific attacks in Brussels. I was able to speak on behalf of our Riding and all Canadians to offer our heartfelt condolences to the people of Belgium. As many people know, Brussels is not only the Capital of Belgium and the European Union, but it is home to NATO Headquarters. Having spent 4 years working in NATO, I know that the people of Belgium are very genial and generous hosts. They should know that Canadians are standing shoulder-to-shoulder with them during these challenging times.

Two middle-aged Ottawa men have been charged for a series of break and enters targeting new homes under construction throughout Ottawa.

The men, 46 and 54 years old, are allegedly responsible for a break-in at a Monahan Landing home earlier this year in south Kanata just a few days after the new owners had moved in. Metroland Media reported that police had begun an investigation into that and other breakins in the south Kanata area.

Det. Scott Kendall with the west district break and enter unit confirmed that police believe the two men to be responsible for the Monahan break and enter.

“The same two were responsible for the majority of the break-ins to the new homes and the homes under construction and have been charged accordingly,” he said.

The 46-year-old faces 21 charges in total, including break and enter, mischief

Budget 2016 I was thrilled to be in the House this week as my colleague the Minister of Finance presented our Government’s first budget. Focusing on the Middle Class, the budget committed funding for families, young Canadians and infrastructure – all focused on growing our economy and creating jobs. I was also happy to see our first step towards significantly improving the quality of life of our Veterans.

Events on the Hill I had the opportunity to attend 2 events this week with our Prime Minister. The Forum for Young Canadians brought together students from across the nation. It is always so inspiring to chat with these very engaged people. Also, members of the Persian community held a reception to celebrate Nowruz (or New Year), an event that has been celebrated for over 3,000 years. I engaged in discussions on topics as varied as tidal power, aerospace, mental health, wireless communications, veterans, national defence and transatlantic cooperation. Thank you to the German Ambassador Werner Wnendt and his wife, Dr. Eleonore Wnendt-Juber, for inviting me to spend a terrific evening at their residence. It was a wonderful evening of friendship between our two great nations.

File

Two men have been arrested for a series of break and enters throughout Ottawa targeting new homes under construction. Evidence against the two continues to mount, with charges related to more break-ins expected, said police. to property, theft, possessing break-in tools and possessing property obtained by crime.

The 54-year-old was charged with break and enter, possessing break-in

tools and possessing property obtained by crime.

The two first appeared in court on March 8.

The allegations have yet to be proven in court.

SPOTTING A TREND

In October of last year, police recognized a trend in break and enters to new homes under construction throughout the city, according to a police news release.

“Items targeted in these break-ins included but were not limited to furnaces, gas fireplaces, kitchen appliances, air conditioners, and construction equipment,” says the release.

The suspects were identified in December and an investigative project was undertaken.

“The project culminated with the arrest of two male suspects on March 7, 2016, after having allegedly committed a break and enter in the west end of the city,” states the news release.

The investigation is ongoing, with evidence against the two suspects mounting, said Kendall, adding that he expects additional charges to be laid for similar break-ins.

“Although I cannot say these two were responsible for all of these type of breakins, since their arrest, there have been no similar type of break-ins reported to the Ottawa Police Service,” said Kendall.

Justice in Canadian history.

In her acceptance speech, McLachlin recounted her first months in Ottawa, after moving to the city from Vancouver, B.C., in 1989 with her then 13-year-old son.

She said she’d been warned that Ottawa was an emotionally cold city, and hard to “break into.”

“That was what (people) said, but that was not my experience,” she said.

“Neighbours planted flamingos on my lawn as a

this Chief Justice - the first female Chief Justice in the British Commonwealth … the longest-serving Chief Justice in Canadian history - will be known as one of the most distinguished jurists ever to serve in the British Commonwealth,” he said.

After the speeches, Watson handed McLachlin a framed “key” to the city, making her the 78th recipient of the honour.

The Key to the City is awarded to distinguished people and honoured guests of the city, with roots stretching centuries back.

Although Ottawa’s first key was presented to then Gov. Gen. Lord Tweedsmuir and his wife Lady Tweedsmuir in 1935, the tradition dates back to medieval times, when admission to a city was made difficult by legal restrictions, walls and locked gates.

Some high-profile recipients of Ottawa’s most prestigious award include author Margaret Atwood, Hollywood actors Lorne Greene and Sandra Oh, actor and musician Dan Aykroyd, Queen Elizabeth II and former Ottawa Senators captain Daniel Alfredsson. Watson also received the award in 2000.

Occasionally, institutions, groups and inanimate objects have also received the Key to the City.

Those recipients include the South African Lawn Bowling Team, the National Arts Centre Orchestra, the University of Ottawa and Her Majesty’s Canadian Ship “Carleton.”

EARLY SPRING MAY MEAN EARLY MOSQUITOES - GDG

Environment, who was awarded the mandate for the Nuisance Mosquito Control Program in Kanata North will begin the treatment process as early as the first week of April. Although the treatment process is beginning shortly, Mark Ardis – Entomologist for GDG, warns that the milder than usual winter may result in higher survival rates of overwintering mosquitoes, more specifically the Culiseta species. These mosquitoes overwinter in tree-holes and under trees and are the first mosquitoes we see flying in the spring. It is normal to see them flying around while there is still snow on the ground on warmer days. Because the mosquitoes overwinter as adults, they cannot be controlled by this spring’s biological mosquito larval control program. Culiseta mosquitoes are not aggressive human biters.

Great Canadian Theatre Company announces playbill for 42nd season Staff

Ottawa’s Great Canadian Theatre Company has unveiled a lineup for its 2016-17 season that showcases six original Canadian plays and acts.

The program announced on March 23 by the company’s artistic director Eric Coates promises provocative stories that meet audiences head-on, examining the complexity of human relationships, looking closely at the lives of some of Canada’s most compelling political leaders, and even carving out space for bold adultsonly entertainment.

“This playbill is the result of great collaboration both within GCTC and with our partners across the country,” Coates said in a press release.

“We started to see a wave of younger people coming to GCTC this season and we are eager to build on that success with our programming.”

The season, the company’s 42nd, will open in September 2016 with the first preview of The Gravitational Pull Of Bernice Trimble by Beth Graham on Sept. 20.

That play, which depicts a daughter troubled by the weight of bearing her mother’s secret, will run until Oct. 9.

Showings of The Last Wife by Kate Hennig from Nov. 3 to 20 will deliver a contemporary retelling of the 16th century relationship between Katherine Parr and King Henry VIII in a witty examination of patriarchy and women’s rights.

From Dec. 1 to 18, The Daisy Theatre, by Ronnie

SUBMITTED

Ronnie Burkett’s adults-only marionette show – The Daisy Theatre – features improvised cabaret inspired by bold characters and current events. The show is part of the Great Canadian Theatre Company’s lineup for the 2016-17 season, a year that will showcase six original Canadian plays and acts.

Burkett, will entertain adults with its improvised marionette cabaret, and from Jan. 12 to 29, Trudeau Stories by Brooke Johnson will take audiences back to 1985 to learn about an unlikely friendship that developed between a young Canadian theatre student and former prime minister Pierre

Trudeau.

The season’s penultimate play, Les Passants by Luc Moquin, will illustrate every-day situations that develop into strange scenarios in a series of bilingual vignettes, from Feb. 23 to March 12, 2017, and Michael Healy’s 1979 will wrap up the season from April

Kourier-Standard welcomes new intern Tanya Molloy

molloy.tanya@gmail.com

I remember watching a movie when I was young and coming across this side character who was more or less important to the movie’s story, but very important in today’s world. That person was the reporter, and I thought to myself how cool it would be to expose the corrupt and get in touch with those who make the world a better place.

Now I may not do all that, but I do get to talk to interesting people who are changing the world in their own way. And that is what I love about being in journalism.

Tanya Molloy Getting to know my city and the people who make it what it is.

But I never thought it

would be something I would actually make a career out of.

I attended French school my entire life, until I was attending the pharmacy technician program at La Cité and found that I really sucked at sciences. I joined a pre-media program, and then moved on to Algonquin College, where I will be receiving my diploma for Journalism in April.

Studying journalism, I found that behind each person is a story so different that it sets them apart from everyone else. I have found that it is within the uniqueness of people that we find the best stories to report on.

I take special interest in stories focusing on social issues, mental health and social activism. I’ve written a lot about LGBTQ+ issues, art therapy, suicide prevention, consent on campuses

and lacking food options on post-secondary campuses.

During my time in college, I especially enjoyed profiling social activists, who took personal interest in raising money for charitable organi-

zations.

In my future endeavors, I look forward to meeting interesting people, and coming across exciting stories and events happening all around us.

Adam Kveton/Metroland

39 years of service Barry Portt, a zone supervisor for the City of Ottawa, receives a certificate from Kanata North Coun. Marianne Wilkinson in recognition of his 39 years of service to the Township of March, the City of Kanata and the City of Ottawa, diligently taking care of sidewalks, sports fields, spray pads, parks and many more facilities in Kanata North, Stittsville, West Carleton and parts of Kanata South. Able to speak with concerned residents with alacrity and a positive sense of humour, Wilkinson said, she and others at a town hall meeting on March 23 wished him happiness in his retirement.

Council balks at upping facility time for new sports groups erin.mccracken@metroland.com

A chorus of upset councillors says any increase in the amount of facility rental times given to new sports groups each year would need a new round of public consultation.

Rideau-Vanier Coun. Mathieu Fleury’s bid to increase sports field, ball diamond and ice time availability to from up to 10 per cent from up to five per cent was met with 19 dissenting votes at the March 23 council meeting.

Barrhaven Coun. Jan Harder took the reins in criticizing Fleury’s motion to change the city’s rental policy refresh currently in development, saying it came out of left field.

“Some of us were part of this allocation process and this is news to me,” she said, before asking for clarifica-

tion from staff. “Certainly the people who are our users and who we support with our sports programs and facilities are not expecting this, just like we were not expecting it.”

Staff determined five per cent is enough, giving returning groups a chance to adjust to whatever their new schedule allocation might be.

It would also allow for about 1,000 new users to rent out the city’s arenas, said Dan Chenier, manager of the city’s parks and recreation department.

“With the five per cent, even though it sounds like a small percentage, it actually equates to a significant amount of hours that the city has the ability to transfer in each year of the four years before we do it all again in year five,” he said.

Fleury told his colleagues he was “sad” over their re-

action given the “fulsome discussion” that previously took place at the committee level that began with 30 percent, which he understands is a big risk.

However, he pointed out that committee members said they were willing to go down to 10 per cent on the spot, which he said would have sufficed for a growing sport.

“It’s a great step in the right direction,” said Fleury, whose motion was supported by Somerset Coun.

Catherine McKenney and Osgoode Coun. George Darouze.

“It really corrects the issue we had in terms of the historical allocation, the unfair advantage that male hockey teams have, in this case, over women’s hockey teams, and applies across different sports categories.

New round of consultation needed: councillors Continued from page 17

“I’m concerned that we’re just re-establishing a new historical baseline.”

If staff were given the authority to dole out up to 10 per cent of available rental times to emerging groups, staff would use their discretion to only take what’s needed and when, Chenier added.

Harder said those councillors who worked on the rental policy revamp initially faced an uphill battle with a lot of “push back” from sporting groups. Even with their input, the eventual decision wasn’t easy to make.

“To change it now is absolutely wrong,” said Harder, adding that deviating from five per cent would require another round of public con-

sultation.

Gloucester-Southgate Coun. Diane Deans agreed.

“If we want to go to 10 per cent then we should go back and do it all over again,” she said.

Others around the table

To change it now is absolutely wrong.

Jan Harder, Coun. for Barrhaven

echoed Harder, including Beacon Hill-Cyrville Coun.

Tim Tierney, who said the policy refresh, which he said was developed through “countless meetings (and) hours and hours of telephone

calls and emails,” was to ensure people could access the facilities, remove the penchant for doling out facility times to groups that have been renting the same sites for years and create a sustainable model.

College Coun. Rick Chiarelli said 10 per cent is better than 30, but it still gives staff too much leeway.

“I don’t think it’s a good idea to have variance with no accountability to the public and the users in the first place, but if we’re going to do it, five per cent I think is as far as we should go,” Chiarelli said. “We are the ones elected. We are the ones supposed to make the decisions.”

Council approves more supervised beach time Erin McCracken

erin.mccracken@metroland.com

Ottawa residents can look forward to a longer season of supervised swimming at four city beaches this summer.

City council voted March 23 to lengthen this year’s beach season by one week until the last Sunday in August before the Labour Day weekend – making it 72 days, up from 65 – in response to public demand to have beaches at Mooney’s Bay, Britannia, Petrie Island and Westboro supervised and maintained beyond last year’s midAugust closing date, which coincided with a heat wave.

Beach-goers can use the beaches throughout the warm months, but must do so at their own risk when they are not staffed.

“We heard from residents last summer that they wanted the beaches open longer,” said KnoxdaleMerivale Coun. Keith Egli,

who moved the motion, and which was seconded

by Gloucester-Southgate Coun. Diane Deans.

It will mean an additional operating cost of $31,000. This will be offset by savings with the temporary closure of the outdoor Crestview Pool in Nepean, which is being rebuilt this year. The facility is expected to reopen in 2017.

“I believe councillors Egli and Deans have found an effective way of extending the beach season and keeping the budget in line, which is great,” Mayor Jim Watson said during the city council meeting.

This solution, which allows the season to be extended but within budget, was preferred over the alternative of shuffling around opening and closing dates for the city-owned beaches. That would have resulted in some closing on different dates.

That would have created a lot of confusion for peo-

This summer’s supervised beach season at four city beaches has been extended by one week. ple, Egli said.

“There was also a level of unfairness in the sense

that if you lived close to a particular beach you’d have access,” he told council. “If you happened to live further away then you wouldn’t because

your beach was closed.”

Additional funding to extend future beach seasons will be included in future draft budgets. In the case of the

File

2017 season, staff said they are confident additional dollars can be found in the parks and recreation department’s operating budget.

Beatles history takes centre stage again

“We had the plant running like a Swiss watch and by the time Beatlemania happened in Canada in the mid-1960s, Smiths Falls could handle it.”

RCA Victor employee Charlie Dalton

80 per cent were women.

Dalton was employed at RCA Victor in Smiths Falls for 26 years.

He worked in both shipping and production control.

“We had the plant running like a Swiss watch,” he said, “and by the time Beatlemania happened in Canada in the mid-1960s, Smiths Falls could handle it,” he said.

First record

The first Beatles record ever pressed in North America – Love Me Do – was done at RCA Victor in Smiths Falls.

The Smiths Falls plant was also instrumental in crafting the music of Elvis Presley.

“Elvis was huge,” Dalton said.

He recounted vacationing at a cottage when the King of Rock and Roll died in 1977 at age 42.

To indulge the certain sentimental rush, “my boss called me and demanded I come back to work,” he said. “The plant pressed a million records in about a month.”

Other presenters included Medcalf, who, in 1963, as a teenager, met the Beatles at a concert in England.

She would later become the president of the largest North American fan club for the band, with over 100,000 members.

Ball, an award-winning photographer, lives just outside Smiths Falls.

He photographed the Fab Four in 1964 and 1965. A number of his photos were displayed on March 12.

The Esquires, based in Otttawa, were co-founded by Comeau.

The group developed a strong local following during the 1962-1963 period, and were signed to Capitol Records in 1963.

It was a sellout for the Station Theatre in Smiths Falls on March 12, proving the Beatles can still pack them in.

The venue hosted the launch of the book The Beatles in Canada – The Origins of Beatlemania! by author Piers Hemmingsen.

Hemmingsen, who now calls Toronto home, has spent many years researching the Beatles, and his book contains 468 pages of captivating stories, little known facts, artifacts and photos of the English rock band’s important history. Moreover, the book comes with a CD of radio interviews and recordings of the band playing.

The Beatles in Canada – The Origins of Beatlemania! sold for $60 on March 12, a one-time price for the books to support the Library and promote Smiths Falls as the birthplace of The Beatles’ music in North America.

Earlier in his life, Hemmingsen moved to England with his family, residing in Larkhill, near Salisbury Wiltshire. They stayed from 1961 to 1963. It was here Hemmingsen first experienced the Beatles, listening to his older brother’s copy of Please Please Me, the Fab Four’s debut studio album. In addition to the title track, other popular singles included Love Me Do and I Saw Her Standing There.

Also during the time, the Hemmingsen family watched the Beatles perform on British television – in black and white, of course.

Storytelling

Within the intimate setting of the Station Theatre, guests listened to Hemmingsen and a handful of presenters, including former Smiths Falls mayor Dennis Staples, RCA

Victor employee Charlie Dalton, Beatles Fan Club founder Trudy Medcalf, photographer Lynn Ball, Gary Comeau of The Esquires, and Chris Saumure, the owner of the former RCA Victor plant.

“You are going to hear a very important story tonight,” Staples said.

He noted it was a tale about the Beatles in Canada and the significant part played by the RCA Victor plant in Smiths Falls.

“The plant near Montreal was getting old and they were looking for a place to build another plant. Many people (who worked there) came from Montreal; however, there was local talent too.”

Author Piers Hemmingsen

The record pressing plant, which cost $750,000 to build, opened its doors in 1954, at the site of the current Cornelia Court – 91 Cornelia St. W. “The plant near Montreal was getting old and they were looking for a place to build another plant,” Hemmingsen said. “Many people (who worked there) came from Montreal; however, there was local talent too.”

RCA Victor was a successful American company.

The Smiths Falls record pressing plant employed hundreds (three shifts), and about

Closed in 1978

The band won the first Juno (Gold Leaf Award) in 1964, and was the opening act for major performers, including the Rolling Stones, Beach Boys, Roy Orbison and more.

Last year, Hemmingsen asked Staples to hook him up with individuals who worked at RCA victor in Smiths Falls, including Dalton. A number of Dalton’s artifacts were on display at the Station Theatre, including Nipper, RCA Victor’s mascot.

The RCA Victor plant in Smiths Falls closed its doors in 1978, with the opening of a plant in Toronto.

Books are available at the Smiths Falls Community Hospital Auxiliary gift shop.

Dan River Cotton had the power to change moods

T

he snow had all but gone from the fields, and our long lane was down to mud ruts showing the many trips to the Northcote side road by the sleigh and cutter over the winter.

When we walked the lane on the way to school, we arrived with our gum rubbers covered with mud, and Miss Crosby made us leave them out on the step until they dried off, and at recess, the mud was scraped away with a twig from the big maple tree in the yard.

The days still had a bite in the air, and until it really warmed up, you couldn’t smell spring. I loved the smell of spring, which my sister Audrey insisted smelled like any other time of the year.

It was this time now, that Mother seemed to build up an energy, and it was like she was waiting for something important to happen. Winter

MARY COOK Memories wasn’t her favourite time of the year, when the snow piled up around us, locking us into months of ice and cold that seemed to go on forever.

And so with the first sign that winter was coming to an end, Mother had a restlessness about her, as if she couldn’t wait to see the first robin, or get her little boxes of vegetable seeds planted, or get into the spring housecleaning.

That Saturday, there wasn’t enough snow to take the cutter into Renfrew, and so Father hitched up the buggy, and Mother set off early to peddle her eggs,

butter, a few chickens, and of course her sticky buns.

Audrey and I were left to do our chores and put dinner on the table when Father and the three brothers came in at noon hour.

It was mid-afternoon before we saw Mother coming down the lane, with Nellie at an even trot. Stopping at the back door, and with what I thought was a real spring to her step, Mother brought in the supplies she had bought with the money realized from her sales in Renfrew.

And there was a bag, which I recognized immediately having come from Walker’s Store.

I was curious beyond measure to know what was in the bag, but of course, Audrey and I were ordered to unpack the tea, the sugar and the other few staples bought to replenish what was in the back-to-the-wall cupboard.

The Walker Store bag sat on the kitchen table. Mother pulled the kettle to the front of the stove and when it started to steam, she made herself a cup of tea and sat down placing her hand on the mysterious bag. I was sure she was wearing what would pass for a smile.

Finally, when I thought I would have to grab the Walker’s Store bag and rip into it myself, Mother opened it up, and there was a folded piece of Dan River cotton … checks in pinks, mauve and the palest blue.

I could smell its newness all the way from the other end of the table. How I loved the smell of new material!

I wondered what plans Mother had for it. New blouses for Audrey and me?

A house dress for herself ?

She had just made fresh flower bag curtains for the kitchen, so the new Dan River material wasn’t for that.

It was mid-afternoon before we saw Mother coming down the lane, with Nellie at an even trot And it was much too pretty for just plain aprons.

“Nineteen cents a yard ... a bit pricey I thought. But well worth it,” Mother said, still rubbing her hands back and forth over the material.

I finally asked her what purpose she had in mind for it. “Don’t really know,” she

said, looking out the window into the grape arbour.

She said nothing for the longest time.

“I don’t think there is anything quite like a new piece of Dan River cotton this time of year. It sort of puts an end to the winter, I think.”

It amazed me how just spending less than a dollar on a piece of material could change my mother from a feeling of restlessness to such a feeling of sheer joy. All over a simple piece of Dan River Cotton print. It wasn’t the first time a new piece of material changed Mother’s mood ... nor would it be the last.

Demonstrators bring ‘Black Lives Matter’ campaign to city hall Erin McCracken

erin.mccracken@metroland.com

“Black lives matter” and “stop shooting us” came the chants.

More than a dozen young people, most of them University of Ottawa students, converged on city hall, shouting their frustration over the unfair treatment of black people.

“People like to pretend like racism here isn’t a thing.

People like to pretend that black people and white people get along and everyone’s being treated equally,” said the group’s spokesperson, Centretown resident Vanessa Dorimain, who is black.

“But that’s not the case.

Our lives specifically are being targeted.”

Ottawa police officers, security personnel and eventually some city councillors watched as the students, many of them members of the Canadian Federation of Students, chanted into a megaphone and waved signs.

They shouted loudly but said they came in peace to

call for change as well as to garner donations in support of the Toronto chapter of Black Lives Matter.

“Black Lives Matter Toronto – they’re talking about issues, not just there in their city, but around the whole country,” Dorimain said.

There is no Ottawa chapter at this time, but that could change given enough interest, said Dorimain, a social sciences major at the university.

Ottawa needs to have a voice in championing equal rights for black people, she said.

“I feel like Ottawa, specifically, is very silent around issues with police brutality and things like that,” Dorimain said, adding that, in general, black people are being unfairly targeted by police and some officers are not being held accounted for their treatment of people of colour.

She also pointed to the police practice of randomly stopping people, known as carding, and questioning and collecting identifying in-

formation from them.

“Just because it’s against the law now, it doesn’t mean cops have stopped doing it, specifically targeting racialized folks, black people,” Dorimain said.

She pointed to the decision not to lay charges against a Toronto police officer who last year fatally shot Andrew Loku, a 45-year-old black man with a history of mental illness.

Only through demonstrations will issues such as that remain in the spotlight, she said.

Ottawa has seen a recent spate of shootings, which have claimed the lives of a number of young black men. Dorimain said the significance of these tragedies have been overshadowed by a debate over whether there are enough guns and gangs officers to counteract gun violence.

“People recognize that we’re not all treated equally,” Coun. Catherine McKenney told reporters after speaking with Dorimain. “We have to make sure that people who

About a dozen demonstrators, many of them University of Ottawa students, chanted “black lives matter” and spoke out against racism during a protest at city hall on March 23. universal disapproval when a Black Lives Matter mural in her ward was defaced last September.

“We got feedback from across the city from people who wanted to express it.

are more vulnerable in our society are recognized as such.

“While violence happens to everyone, it doesn’t happen equally.”

Here in Ottawa, there was

They were outraged with what happened,” McKenney said.

She was the only councillor to approach the group of protesters after the morning’s council meeting came to a close.

The students had hoped to gather statements from Mayor Jim Watson and his council colleagues in support of the advocacy work being done in Toronto.

Dorimain was surprised when she learned city staff had locked themselves and councillors inside council chambers during the council meeting when protestors entered city hall.

“That’s unbelievable,” she said. “That tells me that my body is automatically criminalized, that every time I walk in somewhere just talking about my life and how I want to be respected, I’m automatically seen as a criminal.”

a safer, authorized and licensed option.

The main concern with Uber, Patnif said is that the cars are not always new, or in good, reliable order; there is no police checks, or licensing from the city and ultimately, taxi drivers feel it is not a proper operation.

This new application changes that for licensed taxis in the city, Patnif said.

“We can beat them on our standards. And we can beat them on our speed,” Patni said.

The application is a free download on both Apple and Android devices, and will adapt in every city to automatically link customers with local cab companies.

----------

Ottawa residents in need of transportation in a hurry now have a new app for that.

Blue Line Taxi and Capital Taxi have partnered with eCab, a French company, to offer customers a mobile app to connect customers with taxis in a matter of minutes.

The app became available on March 24 in the city, and is currently already in Toronto and Vancouver as well as 36 countries around the world.

According to eCab’s Gilles Gomis, the smartphone application can connect people with the nearest cab, estimate costs for a taxi trip or book a cab for future need.

It also offers customers the chance to rate a driver.

The taxi app mirrors another driving app available in Ottawa, Uber Ottawa, which connects customers with individually-owned and operated drivers for trips in the city. Since its introduction in Ottawa two years ago, there has been a battle between licensed taxi drivers in the city and drivers who work for Uber.

With below market costs for a ride through Uber, local taxi drivers have complained that they are losing customers.

Hanif Patni, president of Coventry Connections, which operates both Blue Line and Capital Taxi, said this new mobile app isn’t about offering customers the same thing as Uber – a taxi at the tip of their fingers – the eCab option is

Light RaiL Update By: Mayor Jim Watson

While the snow melts and days getting longer, another busy construction season is set to begin. While we can expect some delays, crews will be hard at work improving how quickly and comfortably residents move around our city.

Luckily, crews working on the Confederation Line Light Rail have been hard at work throughout the winter. The Confederation Line project continues on-time and on-budget and I am excited to update you on several significant milestones.

• Phase 1 – will be up and running in 2018 • 2016 will see the final section of running tunnel between Rideau and Parliament stations excavated.

• Excavation of the Lyon Station was recently completed, while Parliament is over 90% complete and Rideau soon to reach 80%.

• More than 3.5 kilometres of track have been installed to date.

• All 13 LRT stations will be under construction before the end of 2016.

• Testing on some of the world-class Alstom CITADIS Spirit LRT vehicles will begin within the next year.

As many of you know, this is just the first phase of the system we will be constructing over the next decade. The next chapter of light rail is just around the corner: Stage 2 of LRT. When Stage 2 is complete in 2023, residents will be able to catch a train as far west as Bayshore and Algonquin College, as far east as Place d’Orleans, and as far south as Riverside South. This will bring close to 70 percent of the city’s population within five kilometres of rail. This will fundamentally transform the way our city moves and grows.

Bringing light rail to Ottawa will be the single largest infrastructure project since Colonel By built the Rideau Canal. With a project of this size and scope, some disruptions are unavoidable for commuters.

Mayor Jim Watson proclaims March 22 World Water Day in Ottawa. On this day, the City of Ottawa hopes to show that it cares and that it has the power to make a difference to help ensure everyone in the world has safe drinking water. To mark this day in Ottawa, a flag was raised above city hall.

There is another day in Ottawa residents can mark on their calendars where they can help make a global difference.

On March 22, Mayor Jim Watson proclaimed that it was World Water Day in Ottawa, raising a

flag above city hall.

World Water Day is a United Nations recognized day to bring attention to the more than 650 million people globally who lack access to this basic right and is held internationally on March 22. Locally, WaterAid works to help bring attention to the needs of safe drinking water, sanitation

and hygiene projects in 37 countries worldwide. Chief operating officer of WaterAid Canada Nicole Hurtubise thanked Watson for proclaiming the day as a day to recognize the need and have Ottawans help make a difference.

“We work hard to address this and we would like to thank you for your support,” she said.

To ensure the fewest disruptions to your commute as possible, I encourage you to access construction and traffic management information by: • Visiting the City of Ottawa’s interactive traffic map at traffic.ottawa.ca • Calling 3-1-1 • Following the City of Ottawa’s Traffic Twitter feed @Ottawa_Traffic • Signing up to receive regular e-mail updates at Ottawa.ca/confederationline For those who make use Ottawa’s extensive multi-use pathway network, all efforts will be made to ensure access is maintained during construction, where safety permits. Detours will be provided where necessary.

Thank you for your patience as the O-Train Confederation Line continues to grow into reality. The way our city moves and grows will benefit our economy, our environment, and our families for generations to come.

Daffodil Month flower power Canadian Cancer Society

When loved ones are diagnosed with or pass away from cancer, we often want to do something to help or honour them.

This April, the Canadian Cancer Society wants the people of Kanata to know that there is something they can do.

This April, by volunteering just a few hours of their time canvassing their neighbourhood or selling daffodil pins in support of the Society’s Daffodil Month campaign

local residents can save lives and help people who are living with cancer now.

Marilyn Bergin, Becki Coleman, and David Root are doing just that. They will be participating in the Bridlewood Blitz, and will organizing a canvassing blitz in Kanata on April 25, 2016 to collect donations. These three people are doing this because people close to their heart have been affected by cancer. In areas outside of Bridlewood, volunteers will be knocking on doors anytime in

the month of April.

When Bergin, Coleman, Root and their team of volunteers head out to canvass the neighbourhood you can identify them by the Canadian Cancer Society badges they will be wearing. They will also have an official Daffodil Month donation booklet and receipts.

Money raised through Daffodil Month helps local patients and their families living with more than 200 different types of cancer, through life-saving research, support servic-

es and funds other important work so that fewer Canadians are touched by the disease.

Volunteers are essential to the success of the Daffodil Month campaign and the Canadian Cancer Society is looking for people who can spare a few hours to help out during this critical fundraising time for the charity.

Those interested in signing up as a volunteer to canvass your neighbourhood or sell daffodil pins, register today at myccsschedule.caor call (613) 723-1744.

Each week, a lawyer from the Kanata based Allan Snelling law firm will answer a reader’s question.

I am negotiating to purchase a business and my business advisor has strongly suggested I structure the deal as an “asset purchase”.

Why is this preferable? avoided through an asset purchase agreement. For example, if the owner of the business has been pocketing cash payments or using corporate assets for personal use, the business may be exposed to reassessments and penalties by the Canada Revenue Agency. A purchase of shares would mean that you, through the purchased corporation, are exposed to those claims.

There are two principal ways to structure the agreement of purchase and sale of a business: as an asset purchase or as a share purchase. An asset purchase is just that, a purchase of listed assets without taking on liabilities of the business. A share purchase, by contrast, is the purchase of the shares of the corporation that carries on the business and owns the assets. There are a number of considerations as to which form of purchase is preferable. In this article, we want to focus on why your advisor has strongly recommended an asset purchase.

Exceptions There are some exceptions to the avoidance of liability by an asset purchase. For instance, if the purchased business employed unionized labour, a collective agreement and any ongoing liabilities thereunder will follow the purchased business, even if structured as an asset purchase. Your legal counsel can assist you to identify and understand the relevant risks and how to avoid them where possible or otherwise obtain protection.

Liability A properly structured asset purchase agreement will allow you to purchase all of the desirable assets of the business you wish to acquire while leaving out the unwanted liabilities. Your advisor has likely identified the business as one (by its nature or by the disclosure you’ve obtained) in which there are significant potential liabilities that may be

Pair of parks planned west of Kanata Lakes Adam Kveton

adam.kveton@metroland.com

Members of a community under development got a glimpse of where their children will frolick in summer and winter during the presentation of plans for two parks for Richardson Ridge.

City planner Diane Emmerson presented plans for Devonian and Huntsville parks during Coun. Marianne Wilkinson’s monthly town hall meeting on March 23.

Emmerson outlined the features of each park, with Huntsville Park to be built in 2016 at the south corner of Huntsville Drive and Arkrose

Street, and Devonian Park to be located several blocks to the north in 2017.

At Huntsville Park the city is focusing on winter activities, said Emmerson, with a pond rink and toboggan hill, as well as a play area with equipment aimed at toddlers to 13-year-olds.

That park, which is about 0.8 hectares in size, will retain much of its current hilly landscape, with the city making use of an existing hill for sledding, said Emmerson. The hill will be fun for kids under 10, she suggested.

Splash pad, skating pond two major features Continued from page 39

Devonian Park, on the other hand, will focus more on summer activities, with an intermediate-level soccer field (not full size), a basketball court, a playground and a splash pad.

The 1.2 hectare park, which will be much flatter compared to Huntsville Park, will be constructed by developers under a new city policy. Whereas the city used to contract out the work with funds from the developer, the city is now having developers of new communities build the parks themselves.

This results in slightly lower costs as the developer already has equipment on site, and speedier construction times as the developer has an interest in having the parks built to attract homebuyers, said Wilkinson.

Due to the timeline of the Huntsville Park, it will follow the former plan, however, and the city will arrange construction. The tender for that project expected to be out this summer.

QUESTIONS FROM RESIDENTS

Some

residents

ques-

tioned why there was no boarded hockey rink included in either of the park designs, providing a spot for older kids to play.

Wilkinson said there is actually more call for splash pads than outdoor hockey rinks, while Emmerson said, “We try to do the best we can with the budget that we have.”

Parks are funded at about $480,000 per hectare.

A water play area costs about $85,000 to $150,000 to build, said Emmerson, and things like play structures are included in just about every park as most communities tend to ask

for them.

“You’re actually very lucky you’re getting (a splash pad),” said Emmerson, as they are quite popular, and the city is already over budget on Devonian Park.

The plans for it will nonetheless go ahead, stressed Wilkinson.

She added that the

skating pond planned for Huntsville Park will only operate if the community organizes to run it with local residents. This is the same arrangement at many city parks with small rinks, said Wilkinson. The Beaverbrook community, for instance, looks after three rinks, she said.

The city also has plans

to build trails through Huntsville Park and north, though it is currently assessing how this can be done safely, said Emmerson.

Anyone interested in commenting on the parks can contact Emmerson at 613-580-2424, ext. 16683 or can email her at diane.emmerson@ottawa.ca.

Air quality in Ontario improves over the last 10 years The people of Ontario are breathing cleaner air today than a decade ago, according to data in the province’s annual report on air quality.

The 2014 Air Quality in Ontario report shows significant decreases in smog-causing pollutants while confirming that Ontario’s initiatives, such as eliminating coal-fired power plants, new air standards, Drive Clean, and placing emissions caps on sulphur dioxide and nitrogen oxides are contributing to improved air quality and helping fight climate change. There were no smog advisories in 2014 and the province’s air was rated very good or good for 94 per cent of the year.

Ontario is doing more to improve air quality, including new rules and requirements that will limit air pollution from industrial emitters. This includes: * Working to regulate industrial sources of air pollution for the petroleum and

petrochemical industries by posting proposed technical standards on the environmental registry for a 90-day public comment period. * Ensuring better environmental protection by regulating air contaminants for the metal finishers and foundries sectors by posting final decisions for technical standards on the environmental registry. * Creating provincial air zones that will help direct government actions to maintain and improve Ontario’s air quality based on the unique circumstances of each area of the province. * Consulting this spring on more stringent sulphur dioxide air standards - a byproduct of fossil fuel combustion and industrial smelting processes. New sulphur dioxide standards for Ontario will be announced by the end of 2016.

Protecting air quality, reducing air contaminants from industrial sources, and sup-

porting clean technology and innovation is part of the government’s economic plan to build Ontario up and deliver on its number-one priority to grow the economy and create jobs.

The four-part plan includes investing in talent and skills, including helping more people get and create the jobs of the future by expanding access to high-quality college and university education. The plan is making the largest investment in public infrastructure in Ontario’s history and investing in a low-carbon economy driven by innovative, high-growth, export-oriented businesses. * In 2014, all 40 air quality index stations met Ontario’s outdoor criteria for nitrogen dioxide, carbon monoxide and sulphur dioxide throughout the year. * Since 2005, levels of smog-causing nitrogen dioxide (NO2) have decreased by 42 per cent and sulphur dioxide (SO2) by 49 per cent.

Enthusiastic cyclists wanted for meet and greet Michelle Nash

michelle.nash@metroland.com

Love talking about wheel spokes? Or riding your bike in the winter?

Does the need for more bike lanes or safer cycling initiatives really get you going?

Well if it does, then Bike Ottawa has just the event for you.

The local advocacy group will be hosting it’s annual Spring Bike Ottawa – an event where passionate cyclists can come and learn about local cycling updates as well as have the chance to bend the ear of a politician about the importance of safer infrastructure on city streets.

“This is a good event for Ottawa residents to learn about what is going on in the cycling scene,” said Bike Ottawa spokesperson Heather Shearer.

The event will begin at 1 p.m. on April 2 at the McNabb Recreation Centre in Centretown. There is

space for 100 participants, and currently Shearer said 80 people have registered.

This will be the fifth edition of the biking event, which will feature Bike Ottawa’s annual report on cycling, a report on winter cycling, intersection design presentation from the City of Ottawa, a short film screening, an update from the NCC, a cycling research presentation and a presentation from an injury lawyer focusing on what to do if a cyclist is involved in a collision.

Aside from the presentations, the day will also feature what Shearer said is the best part – a networking break where participants can talk to all different levels of politicians in one room.

“The event shows how much interest there is in cycling, and showcases how important it is to people to cycle,” Shearer said.

According to Eco-Counter, a data analysis company focusing on pedestrian and

bike counting, Ottawa is the third fastest growing city experiencing bicycle traffic and Shearer said Bike Ottawa has noticed a 40 per cent growth in cyclists over the past five years.

“Cycling has gotten massively better,” she said. “Ottawa has certainly gotten a lot better. We have a good plan (East-West Bikeway Plan) we just need to implement it sooner, clearly people want to cycle in Ottawa, so lets get it in sooner.”

Shearer describes the event as casual and encourages cyclist enthusiasts to come out and participate in advocating for biking in this city.

“Still a lot of work to do, but there has definitely been progress.”

Interested cyclists can go to bikeottawa.ca to learn more about the event or to sign up.

A recap of the event will be posted on Bike Ottawa’s website after the event for anyone who couldn’t make it out.

Council curbs request that prov. approve photo radar in Ottawa Erin McCracken

concern.”

He and his staff have been researching photo radar for the past few months. When Toronto Mayor John Tory requested the same technology from the province in February, in an effort to reducing policing costs, Brockington gave council notice that he would ask that Ottawa make a similar plea.

But what his fellow councillors didn’t understand was that he was only seeking permission from the province before asking that staff research photo radar.

He said staff in recent weeks asked him, “‘Why would you ask us to go through all of that work and effort, when we’re already busy, when we don’t even have permission to do that anyway? Seek permission first and then we’ll give you an extensive report.’”

Barrhaven Coun. Jan Harder, who offered the only dissenting vote against Egli’s request that the issue be sent to committee, apparently understood Brockington’s original intention.

“Again, the motion is just whether we ask the province for the right to (use photo radar), not whether or not we do photo radar,” she told Mayor Jim Watson.

But Gloucester-Southgate Coun. Diane Deans said the city shouldn’t ask for something it doesn’t desire.

“I think we need to decide if this is something we want or our community would want before we go asking for it, because you create an expectation if you ask for it, that you’re going to do it,” she said.

River Coun. Riley Brockington said his request that council seek the province’s permission to bring photo radar to Ottawa was misunderstood, and not a quest to put the hightech system in place without public consultation.

Brockington ultimately agreed to send the matter to committee, noting he fully embraces public con-

sultation.

Police services board chair, West Carleton-March Coun. Eli El-Chantiry, who

seconded Brockington’s motion, also supported diverting the issue to the transportation committee.

A quest to ask the province to equip Ottawa with photo radar has been temporarily parked.

“The issue of speeding vehicles in or near residential communities is the No. 1 safety issue in River Ward and prevails across the city,” River Coun. Riley Brockington told council March 23, while pitching a request to seek the provincial government’s permission to allow Ottawa to use the technology.

“While other issues exist – we’ve heard about guns and gangs, drug dealing, prostitution – the severity and frequency of these matters pale in comparison to excessive speeding in our communities.”

While Brockington acknowledged photo radar “isn’t the silver bullet,” he doesn’t envision its widespread use on Ottawa’s roadways.

Rather, it could be deployed on select streets where other traffic-calming measures have proven ineffective and police presence is rare, said Brockington, who has sounded the alarm before on traffic woes after learning the Ottawa police east district traffic complaint team was scaled back at times last year from four to two officers.

That leaves the remaining two unable to adequately respond to complaints that crop up between the Rideau River and Navan, Brockington said.

“There are streets in my ward where people have told me they will not walk.

Cyclists have told me they won’t cycle for fear of their

own personal safety,” he said.

“Is this the city that we want?”

Knoxdale-Merivale Coun. Keith Egli spearheaded the move to have the issue debated at the transportation committee, which he chairs, on May 4, saying there is a lot of confusion and misunderstanding about where photo radar can be used and when.

Although Egli said he agrees that speeding is an issue, he criticized Brockington’s motion, saying it “leapfrogged” council and didn’t allow for any public delegations to come forward.

“We all know that photo radar is a divisive issue in communities,” he said.

Before the city makes “a fundamental change in enforcement,” even on a limited number of streets, that technology is “a discussion we need to have with the public,” said Egli.

His motion was seconded by Kanata North Coun.

Marianne Wilkinson, who said committee could discuss the merits of a pilot project to explore the different ways photo radar could be implemented so it “doesn’t become a cash cow.”

Brockington acknowledged concerns that photo radar can be a money grab are partially real, and some cities use it in excess.

However, he said his request to seek the province’s permission wasn’t designed to fill city coffers, but rather to arm the city with another safety tool.

“Photo radar is not my first choice to enforce speed in Ottawa, but the fact remains that speed is a major

Premier Wynne Unveils New Long-Term Strategy The Ontario government has released Walking Together: Ontario’s Long-Term Strategy to End Violence Against Indigenous Women.

The strategy outlines actions to prevent violence against Indigenous women and reduce its impact on youth, families and communities.

Premier Kathleen Wynne unveiled Walking Together today at Queen’s Park. The government has committed $100 million over three years in new funding to support implementation of the strategy, which it developed in collaboration with Indigenous partners of Ontario’s Joint Working Group on Violence Against Aboriginal Women.

The government committed to the strategy as part of It’s Never Okay: An Action Plan to Stop Sexual Violence and Harassment, released last March.

The new strategy builds on the existing work of Indigenous partners, community organizations and government to raise awareness of and prevent violence; provide more effective programs and community services that reflect the priorities of Indigenous leaders and communities; and improve socio-economic conditions that support healing within Indigenous communities.

and the federal government Improved data and research to guide the partners in developing new programs and policies that fit the needs of Indigenous communities.

The strategy is one of many steps on Ontario’s journey of healing and reconciliation with First Nations, Inuit and Métis peoples. It incorporates a number of the Truth and Reconciliation Commission of Canada’s Calls to Action and reflects the government’s commitment to work with Indigenous partners.

The strategy recognizes the important role provinces play in this national conversation, which is why Ontario will continue to support the federal government’s National Inquiry into Missing and Murdered Indigenous Women and Girls.

Walking Together is part of Ontario’s plan to provide more security, protection and opportunity for Indigenous women and communities. Indigenous partners in Ontario are leading the way on this strategy, and the Ontario government is honoured to support them on this journey. The strategy will help ensure that everyone in the province can live in safety -- free from the threat, fear or experience of violence.

A dozen new hires, extra vehicles to beef up paramedic service Erin McCracken

erin.mccracken@metroland.com

A dozen new paramedics will be added to the City of Ottawa’s payroll this year.

City council unanimously approved the hires, as well as the purchase of four emergency response vehicles for the Ottawa Paramedic Service during its March 23 meeting.

“This is a very important issue across the city and this is a core service that needs to be equivalent across all wards in the city, and this motion will help this balance out,” said Osgoode Coun. George Darouze, who seconded West Carleton-March Coun. Eli El-Chantiry’s motion calling for more resources.

The bid for change was to ensure council’s priority – and the community’s expectation – of delivering “quality paramedic services within established response times,” according to the motion.

The decision to bring on more personnel and beef

up the paramedic fleet is in response to a 23-per-cent increase in paramedic response volumes over the past five years.

“As a result of increasing response volumes, designated rural resources are often required to respond to the urban core where demand is greatest,” the motion states.

“Consequently, this creates a greater reliance on surrounding municipalities, which are then required to respond to the city’s rural wards.”

Council was prompted to ask staff to review paramedic services to identify operational needs and efficiencies now and in the future. That review is expected to be completed this spring, but council recognized “an immediate need” for more paramedics and the vehicles that will support them, according to the motion.

The new hires, which represent a “part-year budget requirement of $780,000,” will be funded from the city’s provision for one-time and

unforeseen expenses, while the cost of adding to the paramedic vehicle fleet is estimated at $260,000.

Of that, $220,000 will come from the paramedic service’s development charge account, while the remaining $40,000 will come out of the citywide reserve fund.

The review of the paramedic service and its future needs “will be considered by council prior to the development of the 2017 draft operating and capital budget city council approval,” ElChantiry told his colleagues around the table.

The question of how the expense will be divvied up between the city and the province was raised by Kanata North Coun. Marianne Wilkinson.

“As in our normal process, any additions we fund the first year and then the province automatically adds it to our base and funds their 50 per cent next year,” said Ottawa paramedic Chief Anthony Di Monte.

They “worked to find a

Apple eggrolls with caramel sauce Eggroll wrappers work well for sweet fillings, creating a crisp outer shell when baked. Serve with a scoop of vanilla ice cream.

Preparation Time: 10 minutes Cooking time: 25 minutes Baking time: 20 minutes Makes 8 eggrolls and 1/2 cup (125 mL) sauce INGREDIENTS

Sauce:

• 1/2 cup (125 mL) packed brown sugar • 1/4 cup (50 mL) 10 per cent half-and-half cream • 1 tbsp (15 mL) butter • Pinch salt • 1/4 tsp (1 mL) vanilla Filling: • 1/4 cup (50 mL) packed brown sugar •1 tbsp (15 mL) butter •1 tsp (5 mL) grated orange rind •3/4 tsp (4 mL) Chinese five spice powder • Pinch salt • 4 apples, peeled and

chopped (about 4 cups/1 L) • 8 eggroll wrappers • 1 tsp (5 mL) vegetable oil • 1 tbsp (15 mL) icing sugar PREPARATION INSTRUCTIONS

Sauce: In small saucepan over medium heat, whisk together sugar, cream, butter and salt until mixture comes to a simmer. Reduce heat to medium-low and simmer, whisking occasionally, until slightly thickened, about 8 minutes. Stir in vanilla and set aside.

Filling: In large skillet over medium heat, combine sugar, butter, orange rind, Chinese five spice powder and salt; cook, stirring occasionally until butter melts and mixture is bubbly, about 5 minutes.

Add apples and cook, stirring, until apples are tender, 8 to 10 minutes. Remove from heat; let cool 10 minutes.

Tech companies to demo innovations at career fair Adam Kveton

adam.kveton@metroland.com

Kanata tech park companies will soon have the chance to not only hire some new talent, but show what they are all about at the Kanata North Business Improvement Area’s revamped career fair.

In its third year, the fair, rebranded to Discover TechNATA, will now include a tech expo element for job seekers, other companies and the general public to check out on April 7 at the Brookstreet Hotel.

Participating companies are now encouraged to showcase their company’s products and innovations for all to see, said the BIA’s executive director, Jenna Sudds.

The BIA is looking to make its successful career fair event even more so with this new element, she said.

“Last year, we had 35 companies participating (at the career fair), so it was obvious that it filled a need,” said Sudds. “But we felt that in going to this effort, it was certainly also an opportunity to shed a brighter light on what was happening within these companies

as well.”

“We are really here to promote this area as a centre for technology businesses. And so any way that we can help do that makes sense and this just seemed like the perfect fit,” she said.

So far, it seems like the idea has caught on, with 43 companies already signed on to participate.

Not all of them are planning to demonstrate their products, but there are a few enthusiastic companies planning to show what they’ve got.

Nuvyyo, a home media company, will be showcasing a digital video recorder for cord cutters called Tablo.

Its tuner allows you to find, record and stream free over the air HD television using HDMI devices such as Roku, Chromecastr and AppleTV. “Tablo is one of the few pieces of consumer technology that we know of that is created, designed and manufactured in the Ottawa-area,” said Laura Slater with Nuyvvo.

“At the event, we’ll be looking to spread the word about the benefits of cord cutting as well as

The Kanata North BIA’s annual job fair, seen here in 2014, is adding a tech expo element this year, encouraging companies to show their technology and innovations to the general public as well as prospective employees on April 7. seeking qualified candidates to add to our team in hardware design, app development and support,” she said.

While the new element of the

event will give the general public and even family members of tech employees the chance to find out what their loved one does when they get to work, it will also be a

Kanata North hiring event adds tech expo element Continued from page 52

Invitations have been sent out to Ottawa’s universities, its employment centres and to embassies located in Ottawa to create some more interest in what north Kanata tech has to offer.

“We have dozens of embassies here and these

ambassadors and their staff are really a conduit into these countries,” said Sudds. “And so helping to raise the level of awareness for them and helping those relationships form I think is a great opportunity.”

Ottawa’s post-secondary schools are certainly taking notice, with Carleton University, the University of

Ottawa, Algonquin College and La Cité collaborating to sponsor a an exhibitor lounge at TechNATA. “It shows you the level of interest that they have in our companies,” said Sudds. “So they are really quite keen to have that interaction specifically with the companies to get a better sense of what they are

up to and what their talent needs are, which, of course, I think is incredibly positive.”

University of Ottawa is especially interested, it seems, as it will be dropping off two busloads of engineering students at the event an hour early for some exclusive chat with company representatives.

Though it’s just the first year for this new take on the career fair, Sudds said the BIA would like to see more companies participate and demonstrate their innovations at the fair to celebrate and share what they do.

“As much as it’s great to get the word out, there is so much value as well in just the companies learn-

ing what other companies are doing,” she said. “So I think, to me, the sky is the limit.”

Last year, 1,200 people attended the fair. Sudds said she expects that number to increase this year.

He is well known around the Beaver Pond and has quite a few besties in the neighbourhood.

He is a foodie, who is always willing to ‘help’ in the kitchen and with unpacking groceries. A typical teenage guy; he is at the hairstylist every six weeks to get his hair just right.

His favourite toy is Crazy Chicken (a stuffie)… whom he carries around in his mouth, whining after he eats.

Do you think your pet is cute enough to be “THE PET OF THE WEEK”? Submit a picture and short biography of your pet to find out! Simply email to: dtherien@perfprint.ca attention “Pet of the Week”

You have never had such affection as this handsome tabby fellow will show you. The moment he sets his eyes on you he will jump into your arms and hug you so tightly....and melt in your arms. He is so happy to be near you he can’t keep his paws on the ground.

He loves other cats and gets along with gentle dogs.

Under 2 years of age, full of spunk and life - a healthy young man. With him around, there will be many laughs and happy hours.

Côrdydd, a prize-winning mixed choir from Cardiff, Wales, will perform in Ottawa during a gala concert on Saturday, April 23, as part of the Ontario Welsh Festival.

Submitted

Ontario Welsh Festival coming to Ottawa this April Calling all people of Welsh descent and everyone interested in Welsh culture and music Long-time Westboro resident Alison Lawson originally hails from Llandudno, in north Wales and her heart is divided equally between Canada and her country of birth.

Over the years she has been involved in a variety of ways to try to raise the profile of the Welsh among Canadians. She has held various positions in the Ottawa

Welsh Society, organizes a monthly Welsh language conversation group, and has helped organize various concerts in Ottawa involving visiting Welsh choirs .

While many Canadians might not know that St. David’s Day, celebrated on March 1, is to the Welsh what with St. Patrick’s Day is to the Irish, almost everyone is aware of the fact that the Welsh love to sing.

We will all have the opportunity to enjoy a feast of Welsh music

during the Ontario Welsh Festival which will take place April 22 to 24. The festival is an annual celebration of Welsh music and culture, drawing visitors from all over Canada, the United States and Wales. First held in Niagara Falls in 1961, the festival has travelled throughout the province from Ottawa to Windsor since then. This year it is Ottawa’s turn to enjoy this feast of music.

Ottawans will have the opportunity to hear the renowned Côr-

dydd, a prize-winning mixed choir from Cardiff, Wales, together with extra-special guests, the world-renowned Three Welsh Tenors, taking part in a gala concert on Saturday, April 23. It will be a night to remember.

The other main highlight of the festival will be traditional hymn singing sessions, known in Welsh as a Gymanfa Ganu, at Dominion Chalmers United Church on Sunday, April 24. The public is invited, and if you have never heard

the Welsh sing hymns in four-part harmony, don’t miss this opportunity to experience it and join in.

There will be two sessions, one at 10.30 a.m. and one at 1.30 p.m. An added treat will be songs by Côrdydd and the Tenors during each session. There will be a free-will offering.

For more information call Alison Lawson at 613-725-2705 or visit www.ontariowelshfestival.ca or e-mail publicity@ontariowelshfestival.ca.

Driver distraction still number one factor in road deaths “If you are texting, you are not driving”: OPP Heading into its annual distracted driving campaig, the Ontario Provincial Police confirmed that 2015 marked the third consecutive year that driver distraction as a causal factor exceeded all other categories of road deaths on OPP-patrolled roads.

Last year, 69 people died in road crashes in which driver distraction was a factor, compared to 61 speedrelated, 51 seat belt-related and 45 alcohol/drug-related deaths.

Numerous studies have been conducted on the risks associated with distracted driving – in particular, texting or talking on a cell phone while driving. Many of these studies have confirmed that this form of distracted driving is as dangerous as driving while impaired by alcohol or drugs.

is impossible to do so safely unless your eyes and mind are solely focused on driving.”

Ottawa-area MPP Yasir Naqvi, who serves as minister of community safety and correctional services said “distracted driving is just not worth it.”

“It has been shown to be just as dangerous as drinking and driving – something we all know is wrong. We all have a role to play in keeping our roads safe and I want to remind everyone to go hands-free and put your hand-held devices away. It can mean all the difference.”

The OPP is encouraging passengers of all ages to take a zero tolerance approach to distracted driving. Take charge of your own safety and speak up when you are in vehicle being driven by someone who is not paying attention to the road and is endangering your life.

Each year for the past three years (2013-2015), OPP officers have laid about 20,000 distracted driving charges throughout the province, which is more than double the number of impaired driving charges they laid over the same three-year period.

Over and above cell phone use, the OPP continues to lay numerous charges every year against motorists whose driving ability is compromised by other distractions such as eating, self-grooming or tending to kids in the back seat, to name a few.

“If you are texting, talking on your cell phone or preoccupied with other activities while behind the wheel, you are not driving safely,” said OPP Commissioner Vince Hawkes. “It does not suffice to keep your eyes on the road. Driving involves sharing space with drivers, their passengers, motorcyclists, cyclists and pedestrians and it

Summer mp Last summer the Carp Ridge EcoWellness Centre undertook a pilot project to see if children would be interested in collecting wild plants for food and medicine. A group of five children aged 6-10, three teens and an adult spent a week out on the Carp Ridge finding plants and then cooking them over a campfire or making safe herbal remedies for home use.

It was wildly successful. Months later we heard from parents that their children were still enthusiastically identifying wild plants and remembering their uses. The other feedback we received was that the remedies we made actually worked—especially the one for soothing the itch and swelling of insect bites.

This summer we are offering a full month of collecting plants, making food and remedies, identifying wildlife, playing cooperative games, making nature crafts, composing songs and putting on presentations each week for the parents. Days will start and end with calming meditations.

The number of children aged 6-12 will be limited to 20 and divided into small groups of five, each with two leaders.

Lunches and snacks are included and will be from local and organic ingredients. Younger children may enrol in the preschool nature program that runs at the centre all year round. Go to www.carpridgelearningcentre.ca and click on Ridgewoods for details.

Proposed Law to Ensure Transparency, Accountability for Use of Cap and Trade Auction Proceeds To build on the work already underway to fight the effects of climate change, Ontario is laying a foundation to join the biggest carbon market in North America by introducing new legislation today that, if passed, would ensure that proceeds from the province’s cap and trade system are transparently reinvested into green projects and actions that will reduce greenhouse gas pollution.

Under the proposed Climate Change Mitigation and Low Carbon Economy Act, all proceeds from Ontario’s cap and trade program would be deposited into a new Greenhouse Gas Reduction Account. In turn, this account would only fund projects and initiatives aimed at reducing emissions.

To ensure accountability to the public, the act would

also: Require an annual report on funds flowing in and out of the Greenhouse Gas Reduction Account, as well as a description of supported initiatives.

Enshrine the province’s greenhouse gas reduction targets in law and require government to develop a climate change action plan detailing how the province plans to meet those targets at least every five years.

Allow for transitional allowances to large industrial emitters which would be phased out over a period of time.

The proposed Climate Change Mitigation and Low Carbon Economy Act builds on Ontario’s recent actions to fight climate change, including ending coal-fired electricity generation, working with industry and other partners on the design of a cap and trade program, releasing a Climate Change

Strategy and investing in projects that fight climate change through the $325 million Green Investment Fund.

Fighting climate change while supporting economic growth, efficiency and productivity is part of the government’s plan to build Ontario up and deliver on its number-one priority to grow the economy and create jobs. The four-part plan includes investing in people’s talents and skills, mak-

ing the largest investment in public infrastructure in Ontario’s history, creating a dynamic, supportive environment where business thrives, and building a secure retirement savings plan.

QUICK FACTS

In May 2015, Ontario became the first province in Canada to set a mid-term greenhouse gas pollution reduction target of 37 per cent below 1990 levels by 2030.

Don’t Miss: Friday 8pm to 1am - “Countrymen Live” in the upper hall, $10.00 Tickets include admission to the home show floor!

Tears trickled down Brittany Murray’s face as she watched her father speaking through the video setting on her cellphone. He recalled the day of his cancer diagnosis, June 23, 20013.

“I was mad. I was frustrated. I didn’t think there were any signs,” said the legendary NHL coach and general manager. A cough, persistent pain in his shoulder; explain how that leads to stage four colorectal cancer that is spreading to the liver and lungs? Bryan Murray was given two to five years to live. He had a five per cent chance to live five years. Brittany wiped her face with her left palm.

He doesn’t revel in speaking before hundreds of people. The Ottawa Senators general manager is self-effacing and at least as private as the next guy.

Cancer is a full-time job: Murray But he agreed to be guest of honour and speaker Carp Fair Men’s Night annual dinner for an important reason.

“I should have had a colonoscopy done.

My wife told me to have it done,” Murray said at the March 24 event at the Carp Agricultural Hall.

“Get yourself screened. Encourage your friends to do it. If your doctor says you don’t need it – do it.”

Among his proudest accomplishments is when he receives a call from a man who took his advice, got tested, detected cancer early on, and has a better chance of surviving. Murray understands the reluctance. He counted himself among the macho guys who’ve overcome broken bones. He didn’t even have a family doctor for many years.

But this is important.

“Cancer is a fulltime job,” he said. “Appointments, doctors, chemo. Which is why I like to help raise some funds for the Ottawa Integrative Cancer Foundation. Most of the year doing chemotherapy I actually felt good. There were a few bad days.”

He appreciates calls from hall of famers like Steve Yzerman and Sergei Fedorov who are closely following his journey. The two were superstars for the Detroit Red Wings, one of the five teams Murray either coached, was general manager with, or both.

The Shawville native has compiled over 600 NHL victories in regular season games.

In his 13 full NHL seasons as head coach, he has taken his teams to the playoffs 12 times.

In other leagues, he has been head coach of the American Hockey League’s Hershey Bears and the Western Hockey League’s Regina Pats.

When he got the call from the Pats, he remembers asking his wife for just one season to see if he could make a go of coaching hockey full time. Before that he was a teacher in Shawville, along with part owner (with some of his nine siblings) of various local businesses.

On the day he left for Regina, one of the businesses went up in flames.

“I must have been anxious to leave, I guess.”

He also recalled getting into coaching, beginning with boys and girls school basketball teams. When the young teacher heard the girls had lost to Hull 54-4, he decided the ship needed to be righted.

“Well – that’ll end pretty quickly.”

He talked about junior hockey in Smiths Falls and winning Centennial Cup (a national championship at the time) in Pembroke.

But the best move he ever made, Murray said, was coming back to Ottawa and the Senators organization.

The City of Ottawa has completed an Environmental Project Report in accordance with Ontario Regulation 231/08 for the Confederation Line East Light Rail Transit Extension Planning and Environmental Assessment study.

The Project The City of Ottawa has developed a plan to extend and expand the City’s existing Light Rail Transit Network.

Specifically the plan includes extending the future Confederation Line further east from Blair Station to an interim terminal at Place d’Orléans station and, ultimately, to Trim Road (see Ottawa.ca/easternlrt or Ottawa.ca/tlrest for further information).

The plan includes options to service the community of Orleans and adjacent lands. New stations will be located at Montreal Road, Jeanne d’Arc Boulevard, Orléans Boulevard and the terminal station at Place d’Orléans. Additional stations will ultimately be constructed at Brisebois Crescent/Mockingbird Drive (Orleans Town Centre), east of Tenth Line Road and the terminus of the line at Trim Road. Preliminary engineering review has resulted in design refinements to the alignment between Blair Station and Montreal Road Station. These changes have no additional environmental impact, reduce implementation costs, and have been incorporated into the Environmental Project Report.

Get yourself screened.

Encourage your friends to do it. If your doctor says you don’t need it – do it.

Bryan Murray

He mentioned making it to the Stanley Cup finals and the 18 wins, 2 losses start of the next season, before goaltender injuries took hold.

He even touched on this year’s record.

It’s been “a disappointing” season. The expectation was to finish the regular season in fifth or sixth. The team likely won’t make the eighth and final playoff spot.

“Expectations are high for next year.”

Through all the clapping, laughter and overt goodwill toward her dad, Brittany continued filming. Murray may not enjoy public speaking, but he does a fine job, has an inspiring story to share, and continues to raise awareness and funds for cancer research.

“I’ve had a great life. I’ve been given some opportunities to travel. I have a great family.

My daughter is here tonight,” he said, again to affectionate applause.

Impacts to private property are not anticipated as the preferred alternative for the East LRT alignment is entirely within the right-of-way of Highway 174.

The Process The environmental impact of this transit project was assessed and an Environmental Project Report (EPR) prepared according to the Transit Project Assessment Process as prescribed in Ontario Regulation 231/08, Transit Projects and Greater Toronto Transportation Authority Undertakings. The EPR documents the entire study process, including a description of the planned project, its anticipated environmental impacts, and the project’s consultation program.

The EPR for the Confederation Line East LRT Extension project will be available for a 30-day public review period starting March 24, 2016 at the locations noted below during their regular business hours.

Journey through art RIGHT: Pam Sevigny, 23, from the Britannia neighbourhood, attaches feathers to a wood and leather spirit doll constructed during an arts workshop with expressive arts practitioner Kat Clarida at Algonquin College on March 15. The workshop was one of a series hosted by Clarida, in partnership with Odawa Native Friendship Centre, which began in January and will conclude in April. The series aims to engage urban Indigenous youth in a personal artistic journey through the creation of several expressive art pieces – including masks and paintings – that are created after a period of thoughtful reflection by the participants.

Hospital honour Ottawa-Vanier MP Mauril Belanger will be presented with the Medaille du 22 Mars on April 15. The medal marks the importance of the date of March 22, 1997, when more than 10,000 supporters of Montfort Hospital filled the Ottawa Civic Centre. They were responding to the S.O.S. Montfort call, just 26 days after an announcement that Montfort would be closed. Belanger was one of those supporters on March 22, 1997, and has been “a tireless defender of the rights of Francophone minority communities,” said the hospital.

Former Senators captain Laurie Boschman, current captain Erik Karlsson, team owner Eugene Melnyk, former captain Daniel Alfredsson, and alternate captain Chris Phillips hold memorabilia marking the club’s 25th anniversary at a March 22 press conference at the Canadian Tire Centre. Some of the players have loaned the club their own personal memorabilia to display. go to who: items of national significance would go to the museum, for example, and items of local or regional significance would be more likely to go to the city archives, said Paul Henry, a city archivist.

The city’s archives doesn’t have a budget to acquire items, but a tax receipt can be given to those who choose to donate their items, instead of loaning them out.

Some of the Senators’ players, and former players, have already loaned personal items to the club, such as Laurie Boschman’s jersey from the first ever Senators season and Chris Phillips’ rookie season stick.

The organizations involved are still seeking items with historical significance, from amateur, professional, women’s and international hockey.

Ideal items would be game worn uniforms, letters, player contracts, pro-

grams and memorabilia.

Attention all hockey fans: memorabilia and artifacts are wanted for 2017.

With the Canadian Museum of History opening a hockey exhibit in February 2017 for the 100th anniversary of the NHL, the Ottawa Senators’ 25th anniversary, and Canada’s 150th birthday, the city, museum and hockey club have put out a call for borrowed or donated items to put on display.

Hockey history is part of Canadian history, said JeanMarc Blais, director general of the Canadian Museum of History at a press conference held by the Ottawa Senators on March 22 at the Canadian Tire Centre.

“It’s hockey, but it’s also part of Canadian history and how we define ourselves,” he said.

The museum will highlight Canadian hockey history in 2017, and has already acquired the first known hockey stick.

There will be a committee to determine what items

over items with personal value, such as a signed piece of memorabilia.

“We’re really looking for unique items,” Henry said.

“Every item should have a story.”

Ottawa Senators owner Eugene Melnyk said his personal hope is that the city can have a permanent display of local historical hockey items, perhaps in a new downtown rink.

The city archives currently has sports memorabilia on display at the Ottawa Sports Hall of Fame at city hall.

The Senators have developed a website with more information on lending or donating items.

Century-old map of Carp tells a story of the community Tiffany Lepack

tlepack@metroland.com

A recently restored map of the Village of Carp from 1898 has many treasures hidden on it.

Members of the Huntley Township Historical Society (HTHS) explored the map at their March 22 meeting at the Memorial Hall in Carp and heard about its restoration project.

“It’s marvellous to have it here,” said Wilfred Gilchrist from the HTHS before the meeting.

“This is 118 years old and it identifies some of the people who were active at the time in the community. It’s what existed and what was proposed. It gives a picture of the village at the time.”

Anne Argue, who is new to the society, examined the map closely before the meeting and was able to identify a few of her relatives who were listed owning lots.

“I’m really getting into family history, so it is really

The map itself has a number of interesting facts about the community and

the people who lived there at the time.

owed lot 93.

“He owned and operated the post office, so it was probably operated out of that location,” Gilchrist explained to the crowd.

Thomas A. Brown owned lot 111 and that is where the hotel was located before it burned down in the Great Fire.

A number of prominent

people also signed the map: William James Johnson the reeve at the time, John Argue the township clerk and See MAP, page 69

John Harrison Moore who was the Ontario Law Surveyor.

The map also shows the O t t awa - A r n p r i o r- Pa r r y Sound Railway as well as the Grand Trunk.

The map lists a Nelson and John streets.

“I think this is a proposed map, because I don’t think those streets ever existed,” said Gilchrist.

“I think what Mr. Moore did was he had a few different projects and shoved them all together.”

William Bartley also signed the map and he was the first president of the Carp Agricultural Society.

“All of these guys knew each other and were very

active,” said Gilchrist.

“This shows some of the activity and what the place was like.”

Restoration project

The 1898 blue print of Carp was restored Kyla Ubbink of Ubbink Book & Paper Conservation.

It was brought to her in late 2014 and she worked on it over several months, a total 35 working hours, which doesn’t include the washing and drying process.

She returned the map to the society last summer and this event was its official coming out party.

Ubbink spoke to the large crowd at the meeting, explaining the intense pro-

cess she went through to restore it.

The map is 187cm by 96 cm and its length presented a challenge to Ubbink because it is longer than her biggest machine, so she cut the map into two pieces during the restoration process.

“It had been rolled for a number of years and it had dirt and debris on it; that’s all pollutants, the acids eat the paper, it does a lot of damage,” said Ubbink.

“Fortunately it didn’t get a lot of light damage because it was rolled.”

As it is a blueprint there may even be an original out there somewhere, she added.

The map is made of three different pieces, almost two

equal halves and a small corner piece, she explained.

Someone might have forgotten something, so the third piece was added, she surmised, noting it is also

two different colours.

“One side got left out in the sunlight longer than the other piece (during the drying process),” said Ubbink.

“Something like this size was hard to manage.”

The restoration pro-

cess included six different steps: cleaning, removal of the coating, separating the map, washing it (three baths, two at an hour each and the third for 30 minutes), drying it (six to eight hours at a time under blotting paper, changing the paper each time), replacing the old cloth backing and putting it all back together.

A second challenge for Ubbink was the coating that was used on the map.

“You always use shellac or varnish coatings. I tested both of them; I even tested to see if it was acrylic. Nothing would work to dissolve it, so I just left it,” said Ubbink.

“I kept the coating.

Someone more recent did the coating and so far it is

not doing any damage.”

It was hard to get the glare off of the map because of the coating.

The HTHS has now framed the map.

“I’m really happy to see it in a frame; any small waves from rolling in during transport will go away and the frame protects it from dust,” said Ubbink.

The map will now be going into storage and will be on display during the Carp Fair in the fall.

The next meeting of the HTHS will take place on April 19 at 7:30 p.m. at the Memorial Hall in Carp.

Chris Weibe from Heritage Canada will talk about heritage buildings, how they are designated and the benefits of the designation.

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

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

ARIES – Mar 21/Apr 20 Aries, expect quite a few opportunities to have fun this week. Just do not disregard any work or other personal responsibilities in the process.

TAURUS – Apr 21/May 21 Taurus, an energy is growing between you and another person who recently entered your life. Others will soon begin to notice the sparks are flying.

GEMINI – May 22/Jun 21 You are in a good position to help a friend or coworker this week, Gemini.

Although the offer may not be immediately accepted, after time this person will seek you out.

CANCER – Jun 22/Jul 22 Cancer, while working on a big project, you may be frustrated by the pace others are working at. But exercise patience, as this is a task that requires considerable cooperation.

LEO – Jul 23/Aug 23 Leo, make a good impression on everyone you meet this week by beginning your conversation with a smile. Remember, accepting others and being polite can help you make friends.

VIRGO – Aug 24/Sept 22 Responsibilities at work leave you feeling more frazzled than before, Virgo.

Remember to take a step away every so often so you can regroup and recharge.

LIBRA – Sept 23/Oct 23 Libra, certain aspects of your life may prove a little topsy-turvy this week.

This unpredictable period may change your perspective for the better.

SCORPIO – Oct 24/Nov 22 Scorpio, embrace a new responsibility for the challenge it presents.

This is a unique opportunity to illustrate your ability to adapt and handle something new.

SAGITTARIUS – Nov 23/Dec 21 Sagittarius, don’t expect to be surprised this week. You are locked in and can see whatever is coming long before it arrives. Use this to your advantage.

CAPRICORN – Dec 22/Jan 20 Capricorn, take a step back if your approach to a problem is not leading to a solution. Some time away might provide the new perspective you need to find the answer after all.

AQUARIUS – Jan 21/Feb 18 Aquarius, do not procrastinate when others request your feedback. Give a prompt answer and be definitive in your explanation so there is no chance for misinterpretation.

PISCES – Feb 19/Mar 20 After coming up with a few dead ends this week, you soon realize you have to take another approach, Pisces. Gemini can guide you.
