Astronaut brings rocket science down to Earth Kanata’s first TEDx talk shares ‘ideas worth spreading’ Adam Kveton

adam.kveton@metroland.com

An astronaut was one of those to share some lofty ideas at the first TEDx Kanata event on March 26. Local business leaders and academics also shared tips to inspire people to put ideas into action. Spearheaded by the executive director of

the Kanata North Business Improvement Area, Jenna Sudds, TEDx Kanata was an independent version of the famous TED Talks speaking events, which have sought to share “ideas worth spreading” since 1984. Made even more popular by posting thousands of the short talks (18 minutes or less) on YouTube, TED Talks are known worldwide as venues for sharing new and exciting ideas. In Kanata, eight speakers – many from Ottawa – presented some of their loftiest notions. See TECH, page 2

Tech industry must integrate art to succeed: speakers Continued from page 1

But rather than overwhelming the audience, they succeeded in convincing attendees that things like quantum mechanics, the philosophy of art and beauty, and Leonardo da Vinci could have a meaningful impact on their day-to-day lives, said several people in attendance. In particular, the last speaker of the day, Canadian astronaut Jeremy Hansen, lent some otherworldly perspective. Morgan’s Grant resident Shawn Rogers said Hansen “tied in really advanced quantum physics to a passion.” “(He) instilled that into you to take it to what you do and apply it to your own life … that’s awesome,” Rogers said of the

talk. “Though it’s rocket science, he connected it with our daily lives,” said local engineer Sandeep Guntapalli. EARTH AS SPACESHIP

An astronaut since 2009, Hansen said one of the most important things his job gives him is a perspective. Seeing the Earth from the International Space Station showed him we are not just on a planet, but on a spaceship hurtling through the universe, and that we are still trying to understand how our ship works. But working on the space station also showed him that our biggest challenge is not our ship, but the limitations we

place on ourselves. Living on the space station, “We stake our lives on the success of international co-operation,” he said. But, on Earth, we struggle to overcome barriers like language, borders and culture, often failing to work together. There are also barriers that people place on themselves, Hansen said. They are the same arbitrary barriers that said humans weren’t meant to fly, or break the sound barrier, or land on the Moon. However, science has shown that humanity can overcome those, he said. Science has also shown how little we know of the universe and how much there is left to explore. Scientists now estimate that

Submitted

Eight speakers, most from Ottawa, presented some of their biggest ideas at the first TEDx Kanata event at the Brookstreet Hotel on March 26. just five per cent of the known universe is made out of matter, said Hansen. “Have you been limiting yourself to the things you can sense?” he asked. ART IN BUSINESS

TEDx Kanata started with a pair of speakers suggesting that the tech industry’s next big challenge is not to make a better battery, a faster proces-

sor or a more realistic game. Instead, it must struggle to understand art and beauty. Mark Rigley, whose job title is playground director for Fuel Industries in Ottawa, said he has had to deal with this problem after becoming responsible for the work of esthetic designers. “I had no idea what they were doing,” he said. For many in the technology industry whose bread

and butter is physics, math and engineering, the look of a product has little to do with the equation. “Design is weird and designers are weird and they talk about weird stuff all the time,” said Rigley. “They talk about form, balance and proportion, and almost most terrifyingly, they talk about beauty.” See RESUMES, page 3

Resumes need to go: recruiter Hometown Hockey, Ron But the benefits to merging good technology with goodlooking products can be huge, as shown by Apple, he said. “That’s been the foundation of their success,â€? said Rigley. In an effort to understand what his designers were doing, Rigley went to work studying the history of design and found that, for some engineers and mathematicians, the inherent beauty of something is not only desirable but an indication of how it will perform. “An aircraft that looks beautiful will fly the same way,â€? said Rigley, quoting a Lockheed Martin aeronautical engineer and the designer of the SR-71 Blackbird, which set numerous altitude and speed records and remains the world’s fastest jetpropelled aircraft. “My idea, which was originally just a suspicion, in now a belief ‌ beautiful things really do work better,â€? said Rigley. Jason Flick, president and cofounder of You.i TV, suggested

that, more and more, corporations must seek to meld innovation with artistry, or they could be left behind. Pointing to the alternative taxi service Uber, Flick said, “You don’t want to be a taxi cab company right now that sat and didn’t innovate for almost 20 years.� TIME FOR RESUMES TO DIE

Perhaps the most down-toearth presentation at TEDx Kanata began with another rumination on flight. Halogen Software talent recruiter John Fleischauer said resumes last as long as a paper airplane flies – about three seconds, the same length of time recruiters spend looking at resumes on average. But somehow, resumes have been around for hundreds of years, originally invented by Leonardo da Vinci, Fleischauer said. He characterized resumes as 2-D highlight reels of how and to whom people have sold their time, packaged in what the job-

seeker hopes is desirable in the eyes of a potential employer. They ignore people’s passions and motivations, and encourage employers to think of hiring as if it’s a transaction. “People are not commodities. People are not pieces of paper,� Fleischauer said. “People are people, and it seems that somewhere between da Vinci and Zuckerberg we have forgotten that.� Fleischauer’s talk inspired human resources workers Alison Rae and Amanda Gordon to look at a different way of recruiting for their companies. “Let’s look at what we are doing in recruitment and how I can engage more the person versus just what’s on the piece of paper,� said Gordon. TEDx Kanata hopes to host another talk next year, said organizer Sudds.

Michel Weatherall has worked to bring his nightmare to the world for nearly 15 years, and in February, he finally succeeded. The Glen Cairn resident released The Symbiot, his first horror book of a planned three. Inspired by famous horror author H.P. Lovecraft – who created the unimaginably frightening Cthulhu – Weatherall said his book aims to delight and frighten readers in their late teens to their 80s. “(It’s) definitely not (for) younger children,” he said, though that’s when his interest in horror began. “I used to read DC comics’ House of Secrets and House of Mystery at night before I went to bed,” said Weatherall. Though his parents forbid him to read those kinds of stories at night, Weatherall would hide his horror comics beneath his superhero ones and get right to reading. “Yes, I would have nightmares,” he said. “I hate it when my parents are right!” Weatherall’s interest in writing SUBMITTED reared its head in Grade 6 during a Glen Cairn resident and new author, Michel short story assignment. Weatherall, has come out with his first horror book, Writing well over the page limit, The Symbiot. Weatherall ended his story with “to be continued.” “Much to the chagrin of my fellow classmates, the teacher made mention of my story and assigned us another story to write because he wanted to hear more,” he said. Weatherall discovered a love for RONALD J. BOIVIN, LL.B H.P. Lovecraft’s work, which is toutBarrister, Solicitor & Notary Public ed as seminal horror literature, after delving into his own concept of alien beings who are so different than humans that they are terrifying.

Motion aims to spare special education providers

As it crafts its 2015-2016 spending plan, the board is grappling with having to balance its budget amid a backdrop of reduced Ministry of Education funding, as the province tries to do the same with its own budget. The motion from OCDSB board chairwoman Shirley Seward, who represents River zone, tentatively took 14 special education staff off of the chopping block, and requested that staff find cuts elsewhere. “I asked for all of the‌ special education staff to be reinstated,â€? said Seward. “I didn’t want any reductions.â€? In the recent past, Seward has expressed her view that such staff, which are usually the first to be cut in tough economic times, are crucial and

deserve protection. “The second part of the motion asked staff to find reductions in other areas ‌ outside special education,â€? said Seward. “The motion said they should be looking at central administrative areas of staffing.â€? An amendment was added to make the directive more general in where staff can look for savings. Board funding has been stagnant for a couple of years now, and the March 26 ministry announcement of grants for student needs (GSNs) revealed a $7 million drop in provincial funding to the public board. As 59 per cent of the board’s budget goes towards staffing, that makes it a clear go-to place to find efficiencies. However, contracts and collective agreements cover 83 per cent of the board’s workforce, leaving certain workers – like special education learning support and learning resource teachers - more vulnerable to cost-cutting. The staffing report sent to the board meeting by Janice McCoy, the board’s superintendent of human resources, called for a reduction of 28.71 full-time equivalents from elementary and secondary schools in Ottawa. Of that number, 14.76 full-time equivalents were in the field of special education. The release of ministry

grants could change the situation, but staff has yet to work out how the funding figures will affect the staffing proposals, said Seward. “The next board meeting is (March 31),â€? said Seward. “Staff will bring forward the proposed offset cuts, and it will be an opportunity to discuss that and see if we’re in agreement with what they’ve proposed.â€? Donna Blackburn, trustee for Barrhaven/KnoxdaleMerivale, voted in favour of Seward’s motion. “What I found problematic with the staff recommendation was that it seemed too topheavy on front-line staff,â€? said Blackburn. “I hope they look to make cuts to central staff, and maybe at the end of the day we can find a compromise position ‌ Special education carries with it a lot of division, and a lot of angst among parents whose kids need special services.â€? The economic situation the board finds itself in – compounded by dwindling reserves – means that an extra emphasis on fiscal prudence will required for this budget and those that follow, said Blackburn. “Going forward, we’re going to have to be pragmatic,â€? said Blackburn. “In some ways, the party is over and there are some hard decisions to be made.â€?

Find out what happens when you call 311 March Rural Community Association

Ever wonder what happens when you call 311? The March Rural Community Association will be hosting an open house on the city of Ottawa’s 311 service request line. On April 8th at 7:30 p.m. at the old town hall at March and Klondike, come and learn about what happens when you call in. 311 is the City of Ottawa’s point of contact between its residents and its services. We will also be talking about possible ideas for the March Central Community Center. We have been approached by West Carleton-March Coun. Eli El-Chantiry and the City Parks and Recreation department regarding the community centre on Riddel Drive. The March Central Community Centre is currently rented out to a private group which uses it as a school. The city has been notified that this group wishes to give up some of the lease. This means some of the space will be returning to be used as community space. We have been asked if there is any particular group or need that this space would serve. The goal is to have a general idea of what is needed out of this community space so renovations can happen to support it this summer. The current idea is to turn it into multi-use space. Saying that there is a prevalent need in the community for something else, it may be used otherwise. The idea of the MRCA assuming more responsibility for the space was raised. Opinions and ideas on this would be appreciated as well. At our last meeting we had the City of Ottawa in to talk about the Greenbin program. The City of Ottawa has a reminder system in place for residents who would like a reminder on what type of collection it is that night for their house. The system can let you know through email, phone, and twitter. We were also informed about what types of what goes where.

By using the Waste Explorer they can find out how to dispose of thousands of different items. Links to both can be found on the March Rural Community Associations website. The

website is www.marchrural.ca. If you have any questions, please contact us at mrcapresident@gmail. com. Looking forward to seeing you there!

Ontario finances still adrift

I

t’s not difficult to find evidence the Ontario government has lost its way. Almost every day they send out reminders, in the form of press releases, to whoever is interested of the many ways in which they’re squandering the future of the province. For example, in the spirit of disclosure and public accountability they sent out information on the annual “sunshine list,� detailing the members of the public sector who earn more than $100,000 per year. In 2014, the number of people on that list surpassed 100,000. That’s not an insignificant number of people. In fact, there are so many people in Ontario earning six figures on the public payroll that, at a minimum, their salaries will make up at least $10 billion of the province’s $130 billion 2014-15 fiscal plans. As most people on the sunshine list make more than $100,000, the actual portion of Ontario’s annual expenditures likely surpasses 10 per cent of the total. And that’s the disclosure part. While the top earners in the provincial public sector count their

riches, school boards and hospitals, including those here in Ottawa, are trimming their front-line staff in an effort to keep their budgets in balance as money from the province is frozen or clawed back. The Ottawa Hospital, CHEO, the public school board have announced in the last couple weeks that they’ll have to reduce the number of nurses and learning support staff in order to keep their books in the black. Those are the sorts of cuts that residents will notice. Yet these aren’t called job cuts, as these decisions are left to those at the local level, yet they do sound awfully similar to the sort that Kathleen Wynne denounced during her re-election campaign last year. She pledged to get Ontario’s economy back on track without tearing apart the public services residents depend on. So far, all we’ve seen is evidence of profligate spending and harmful job cuts. After more than half a decade of sour economic times, Ontario’s leadership is no closer to helping us find our way out of the woods.

t seems like some kind of playoff fever thing hits our town every year. Playoff fever, as we have learned, doesn’t always mean Ottawa makes the National Hockey League playoffs, but it is exciting and it helps pass the last weeks of a very long and hard winter. And actually, it’s not really playoff fever. Actual playoff fever begins when the playoffs begin. What we have is making-the-playoffs fever, a different thing entirely. Some might suggest that, next year, the Senators could try winning more games earlier in the season, so that a playoff spot could be guaranteed and the good people of this city could be spared the nerve-wracking ordeal of a late-season playoff run. Such people have no soul, and no

CHARLES GORDON Funny Town sense of the intense pleasure and pain of making-the-playoffs fever. Because, hasn’t this been fun? A team that gets off to a horrible start, fires the coach, loses most of its veteran players to injury, including the best goaltender in the league at the time, just when the city has given up and started to think about gardening or something -- just then, with a minor-league goaltender and a gang of quite inexperienced players, the team starts to win, and continues

to win, and continues and continues, until the elusive playoff spot is within reach and fans are throwing hamburgers on the ice. Fans of one of those teams that wins all the time would be missing all this. True, having a winning season from beginning to end is the traditional way of making the playoffs, but that can be boring. Far better to keep the fans on the edge of their seats, keep them checking the radio or the TV when they’re supposed to be entertaining guests, keep them listening to the game online when they’re supposed to be going out to sample the nightlife in Florida. Fans of teams that do it the traditional way, in places like Chicago and Detroit, are probably pretty satisfied with their sports life.

should try this. In fact, the Senators themselves were quite traditional until last year, making the playoffs consistently for more than a decade. Then, last season, they rediscovered the extra dose of excitement they could provide for their fans by waiting until the last minute to qualify. The team had done that in 1997, qualifying for the playoffs on the last day of the regular season. Unfortunately, in the case of last season there was a miscalculation. The team was in the race for what sportswriters like to call “a coveted post-season spot� until the last week of the season. Then oops. Still, everyone could see what fun it was. Hence, the position we find ourselves in now as Senators fans, old and new. For there are many new ones. Winning a string of games with no veterans and a minor-league goalie will do that. Exciting as it all is, fans are urged

not to emulate the Sens in real life. Unless she is an exceptional person, the boss will not find it acceptable if you goof off for several months, promising a flurry of accomplishment in the last few weeks. It only works on skates.

How to lead an active life – nothing to do with exercise SaveUpTo90%! Capital Muse my child’s on a potty or demanding my attention for homework, it’s simply not the best time for me to pick up the phone. Learn to say no. I have learned this the hard way. In my personal life, I try not to overpromise. I’ve become comfortable saying no or maybe to social invitations, school activities or other demands from family and friends. It’s not easy for me, I’m a helper and I’m very social. I like to make soup when people are sick. I like to offer to take an elderly neighbour out for coffee. But overpromising and under delivering or backtracking on a yes entirely is far worse than saying no upfront. A few years ago in my professional life, I developed a bad habit of saying yes to every contract. If a potential client asked if I were available for work, I’d immediately say yes, a kneejerk reaction I developed from my early days as a freelancer when there was more famine than feast. I would

also promise to deliver things in less time than was feasibly possible, a negative and reactive habit that is common among small business owners in the early years and is one of the top reasons businesses fail within the first five years. Think of the contractor that promises to renovate your kitchen in two weeks and then takes six weeks to actually get it done. This reactive stance started to get the better of me. I was taking on more work than I could handle. I started to produce substandard work, or good quality work that was past deadline, two things that would have had a negative long term impact on my business reputation had I not nipped them in the bud.

very day we’re bombarded with so much information, it’s difficult to stay focused. There are ads, social media, phone calls, work and family demands. As we receive more information ever more quickly, it’s hard not to react to everything that comes at us. But being reactive isn’t the best way to travel through life. Proponents of meditation would tell you calming and focusing your mind and body helps to reduce negative stress in large part because it trains you to be less reactive. Organizational behaviour theory also frequently supports this view. The best managers, although they’re able to respond quickly to things, are also good at prioritizing, which suggests they are active rather than reactive. In our fast-paced world, besides meditation, how can we promote reflection and determined action? Take a break from electronic devices. Shut down the constant beeping of the smartphone that triggers the reaction to check a friend’s latest Tweet or Facebook status. At work, turn off email indicators and plan to check email at a certain times throughout the day. Have you ever just let your home phone ring and not answered it? I do it all the time. I’ve learned that when

Star Wars lovers and game creators at Kanata company Gigataur celebrated the launch of the newest Star

Gigataur CEO Andrew Fisher, left, and Gigataur’s chief creative officer and one of its founders, Wes Tam, with a pair of light sabres. On March 27, the company announced a new Star Wars game for mobile devices that it co-produced with Disney. Wars game was the result of long hours and gruelling work, the project was a labour of love for many employees, said Anderson. “That’s my desk over there with the giant Darth Vader,” he said, pointing it out among workstations strewn with Yoda, the Hulk, Iron Man, Wolverine and other toys from popular franchises. “All of us are really passionate about

the games that we’ve made, whether it’s He-Man, X-Men or Star Wars,” he said. Phillips called working on the game, “The best time I’ve ever had in my life.” The company hopes to win the approval of both original Star Wars fans and the new generation of movie-goers with the game, which is available for iOS, Android and Windows devices.

Skywalker meets Obi-Wan Kenobi, and focuses on rebels opposing the tyranny of the Empire. Coming out nine months before the anticipated release of the new Star Wars movie, The Force Awakens, the game is meant to “onboard the new generation of Star Wars fans,” said Gigataur CEO Andrew Fisher. The project is Gigataur’s “biggest game yet,” said project producer Laura Townson during the company’s announcement of the game’s release. Over the last three years, the company has released mobile games for Mattel’s He-Man franchise, and Marvel’s X-Men, boosting Gigataur’s prominence among companies with major franchises. Gigataur was started by Wes Tam, Ian Anderson, Josh Phillips and Eric Dalrymple in Kanata six years ago, partnering with Wesley Clover International to become a force in the mobile gaming industry. The company has mostly hired locally, which was acknowledged by Orleans councillor and Deputy Mayor Bob Monette during the announcement. Though work on the Star

Nursing cuts at Almonte hospital prompt rally Local union president pushes for end to provincial budget freeze adam.kveton@metroland.com

The loss of 10 registered nursing positions at Almonte General Hospital prompted a joint rally by CUPE members and Carleton-Mississippi Mills MPP Jack MacLaren on March 27. About two-dozen people gathered in front of MacLaren’s constituency office at 240 Michael Cowpland Dr. in Kanata, calling for the provincial government to end a four-year hospital funding freeze. The quality of care at the hospital will not yet be affected by the loss of the positions, said Linda Melbrew, the Canadian Union of Public Employees president for local 3022, representing Almonte Hospital. But with funding

for hospitals expected to be frozen for another year, patient care could definitely be affected, she said. “The hospitals need the money ‌ so they are taking it out on the front line work-

ers to balance the budget,� said Melbrew. Six full-time and four part-time registered practi-

cal nurse positions were cut at Almonte General Hospital on Feb. 11, she said. Those positions are being replaced by personal support workers – who have less training and can be paid less – while the hospital is trying to find spots for the RPN’s at Fairview Manor, a long-term care facility attached to the hospital, said Melbrew. “A lot of these nurses are between 20 and 25 years of service, and they weren’t old enough to retire,� she said. “So some of them have gone over to the long-term care facility, but that means that people at the long-term care facility are without a position, so basically we are still down the 10 positions at the hospital.� That means the problem is currently shouldered by in-

dividual workers and not patients, said Melbrew, though, in another year, the quality of patient care could be reduced. Ontario Council of Hospital Unions president Michael Hurley said replacing RPN’s

ley said. “Nursing positions are being cut at most hospitals across Ontario and in the Ottawa Valley, whether it’s the elimination of vacant positions or it’s the elimination of positions that are filled,� he said. See HOSPITALS, page 14

Hospitals need yearly increases to keep up

! ! ! !

Some hospitals, like Almonte and CHEO, have not had to cut positions until this year, but the mounting pressure of the budget freeze has prompted cuts now. “The auditor general for Ontario says these hospitals need (an increase of) 5.9 per cent a year just to keep up with the costs of drugs that they have to provide free to the patients we take care of, doctors’ salaries (and) medical technologies,â€? Hurley said. “In effect, Almonte General Hosptial’s budget has been cut by 24 per cent in real terms over that period.â€? The cuts seem to be focused on front line staff, while senior management seems to grow, according to staff complaints, said Hurley. “Since front line staff don’t operate the hospitals, they can just gnash their teeth ‌ there is not much they can do,â€? he said. Hurley said he is calling on the provincial government to increase hospital funding by 5.9 per cent a year once again so that situations at hospitals don’t get worse. ! That is money the government would have if it wasn’t for things like the Green ! Energy Act, said MacLaren, which he said could cost the province up to $100 !! over the next 20 years. billion

!! !! !! !! !! !! !! !! !! ! !

“We are saying to the people of Ontario, all of us here assembled today, that this government is not doing what they were elected to do ‌ eight short months ago, and people are losing their jobs in health care,â€? said MacLaren. The rally also marked a change in Progressive Conservative party doctrine, which had shunned union affiliation before the recent election. “In the past, it could be said that the unions and our party were not on the same page, and that served no one,â€? said MacLaren. “That was, in hindsight, a big mistake, and so we have to put that behind us and, going forward, I think we need to have a more positive working relationship with CUPE and other unions.â€? He said that, in the case of nurses, he and CUPE are trying to do the same thing. “I was very proud today to stand with the CUPE representatives,â€? said MacLaren.

Ontario Council of Hospital Unions president Michael Hurley speaks to a crowd during a rally in support of Almonte General Hospital nurses whose jobs were cut due to the provincial government’s four-year hospital budget funding freeze.

Kanata Psychology and Counselling Centre Sometimes life deals us more than we can handle. We need support and guidance to find our way through our distress and despair. Dr. Rebecca Moore, C.Psych and her team at the new Kanata Psychology and Counselling Centre have the keys to unlock emotional doors to lead to a more stable life. “Almost anyone can benefit from counselling or therapy. However, they must be motivated to make changes,” points out Dr. Moore. “The therapeutic relationship is unique. It may be the one relationship in the client’s life in which they are accepted unconditionally. This enables them to confront and address difficulties that they may otherwise be unable to on their own or with a loved one or friend. Therapists are specially trained to work with clients using evidencebased treatments that have been shown to be effective.” The Kanata Psychology and Counselling Centre at 99 Kakulu Rd, Suite 112, offers a full range of services from a team of psychologists and psychotherapists. “Therapy helps individuals/families/couples, understand their thoughts, feelings, and behaviours, and helps them to overcome difficulties in living such as stress, relationship problems, low self-esteem, etc.,” explains Dr. Moore. “It also helps people cope with the effects of trauma and other adverse life events. Therapy is also beneficial in treating mental health disorders such as anxiety and depression.” Whatever the circumstance, the trained practitioners at Kanata Psychology and Counselling Centre are available to help clients overcome obstacles on their life path. “We provide therapy to children, adolescents, adults and families who are experiencing a wide variety of psychological and interpersonal difficulties,” says Dr. Moore. “Special areas of interest include anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship difficulties, and problems related to identity and self-esteem, including issues pertinent to LGBT in-

dividuals. We also have expertise in parenting as well as issues specific to children and adolescents, such as behavioural problems, coping with the effects of parental conflict and divorce, school refusal, and psychoeducational assessments.” Born and raised in the Ottawa area, Dr. Moore developed her devotion to helping people when she worked at a small private school in Carp. “I had earned an Honours Bachelor Degree in Peace and Conflict Studies at the University of Toronto. I was trying to figure out my career path while I worked part-time as a teacher and tutor at Venta Preparatory School. This school was founded by a clinical psychologist – Dr. Agatha Sidlauskas (who is now 101 years of age). All children, at the time, received psychoeducational assessments as part of the admissions process so as to better understand their intellectual, personality and learning profile. I was fascinated by this process and by her ability to understand the dynamics of each child. I decided to return to school when my first son was almost two years old– 4 years parttime to complete a second undergraduate degree and then the PhD program at the University of Ottawa.” Dr. Moore has been seeing clients since 2003. She was a psychologist for the Ottawa Carleton District School Board for over three years and has been in private practice since 2011. At the Kanata Psychology and Counselling Centre, Dr. Moore is joined by a team of experienced psychologists and psychotherapists. “We have a number of therapists at the Centre, who see children, adolescents, adults, couples, and families.” Scott McCleery, M.A is a psychotherapist who focuses on adult, adolescent and couples therapy. “My practice is guided by an interest in creating a relationship of change through use of advanced empathy and caring dialogue,”

explains Scott.“Under these supportive conditions, you may find it easier to express, develop deeper awareness of, and act in new ways, gradually challenging and potentially resolving difficulties in living. This approach often leads to growth in areas of inner resiliency and deeper self-awareness.” Cristina Guevara, M.A. is a psychotherapist who focuses on individual, couple, child and family therapy. She is also fluent in Spanish. “The healing process is unique to each person. While many go through similar events, not everyone experiences them in the same way,” says Cristina. By viewing my clients through a holistic lens, I develop a collaborative therapeutic relationship from which to create a safe and open environment where processing of past experiences can take place. My primary focus is working with clients who have experienced trauma. Because the nature of trauma is complex, I use an integrative, person-centered approach to meet my clients’ needs. In addition to other evidence-based interventions, I use Play Therapy, Sandtray-Worldplay, and expressive arts therapies.” Dr. Blanka Miletic, C.Psych is a psychologist (supervised practice) who works with individual adults. “I work with adults who experience a wide range of psychological and interpersonal difficulties. My clinical interests include issues related to anxiety, depression, resolving past or current relationship difficulties, life transitions, self-esteem problems, anger management, common life stressors (e.g., work-related, loss), and cross-cultural struggles (e.g., cultural identity, cross-cultural adjustment),” explains Dr. Miletic. “I approach my clients in a genuine and compassionate fashion, and I strive to provide an atmosphere of trust, acceptance, and respect where one can feel comfortable and safe to tell their story, explore their difficulties, and work towards their own healing. I believe in the uniqueness of human experience and I place an emphasis on the im-

pact of unique psycho-social factors as well as cultural context in which individuals live. Therefore, I tailor my treatment approach to the unique needs of my clients.” The Kanata Psychology and Counselling Centre also provides psychoeducational assessments which provide information relating to learning disabilities, ADHD, giftedness, etc. The length of time someone is in counselling depends on the individual case. “There are a number of factors including the nature of the problem and the client’s current life circumstances,” explains Dr. Moore. “Some people attend from 6-12 sessions. Others find it beneficial to attend therapy for a number of months or years. “Research shows that therapy helps with the reduction of distress and symptoms such as anxiety and depression. Therapy can enable individuals to live with more insight and selfacceptance and to understand and change unhelpful thinking styles or interpersonal patterns.” Each therapist at the Kanata Psychology and Counselling Centre keeps their own hours. There may be daytime, evening, or even weekend appointments possible depending on the therapist. Office administrator Anita Perez McCleery takes care of finding the best therapist for an individual and scheduling initial appointments. Therapy is not covered by OHIP but may be covered by most private insurance plans. Fees for therapy vary depending on the practitioner and range from $140 to $180 per hour. Sessions are booked in one hour blocks (50 minutes per session plus 10 minutes paperwork). The fee for psychoeducational assessment services is approximately $2500 and includes initial interview, testing sessions, report writing, and feedback interview.

Country themed Canada Day in Kanata announces headliner Event organizers plan to expand family entertainment Adam Kveton

adam.kveton@metroland.com

Juno-award-winning country artist Brett Kissel will headline this year’s Canada Day in Kanata, with local country singer Jordan McIntosh also helping to take the event in a new direction. This year, the Canada Day in Kanata Association wanted to turn away from classic rock

and try something new in an effort to keep the event from stagnating, said president and chair of the association, Colin Laycock. “We have a brand new board of directors this year, and we’ve done classic rock for almost 10 years and we wanted to do something to change the pace,” he said. “That’s where we came up with, ‘Let’s do something country.’” Brett Kissel is an up-andcoming Canadian country music singer with several 2014 awards, including a Juno for Breakthrough Artist of the

Year. Kissel grew up in Flat Lake, Alta., and the 24-yearold’s first album, Started with a Song, was released in late 2013. “We are pretty excited,” said Laycock of having Kissel sign on for Canada Day in Kanata. After securing Kissel, event organizers looked to include some local talent, and found McIntosh. From Carleton Place, the teenager has released three singles including Grew Up In A Country Song, which details his community, and he is working on an album. Along with some other changes to the Canada Day in Kanata event, like expanding the Family Funzone and adding more bouncy castles for kids, the new genre will focus on families. “(The country focus) is something very different and every time I talk to somebody about it, they say, ‘All right, that’s awesome, that’s a great change,’” said Laycock.

ganizers are looking at less well known groups to perform at the free show. “We try to book somebody that will appease the masses, but also that is completely within a reasonable budget,” he said. But that doesn’t mean money is tight for the association, said Laycock. “We are probably in the best situation that the organization has been in its 11 years as far as I am aware,” he said. Budgets for the event, which are made up of sponsorship money and donations from the public, have ranged from $70,000 to $100,000 annually over the years, he said. Last year’s was a smaller budget of about $70,000 whereas this year’s is in the $100,000 range. The association is also trying to put some money away, and come up with ideas, for Canada’s 150th birthday in 2017. “That is going to be the largest event we are going to put on ever,” he said.

The album, released on March 5, is titled + + +, a nod to the group’s name, The Adding Machine. Taking on the name of a 1923 play by Elmer Rice where an accountant of 25 years is replaced by an adding machine, the group’s intention to bring something new to Ottawa seemed clear from the beginning. Echoing the plot of the play, Johnny McArthur, a.k.a. Defckon, said, “Instead of everybody (in Ottawa’s hip-hop scene) doing the exact same thing over and over again, we essentially wanted to replace that.” The group’s new album tries to introduce something new, he said, with the help of the other two members of The Adding Machine: Arreh Searag, a.k.a. Yuukon, and Ethan Howieson, a.k.a. E.on. The rappers are quick to note that, when you think of rap or hiphop, your mind doesn’t automatically think that it would come out of Kanata. But in the age of the internet, growing up in Bridlewood and Glen Cairn wasn’t an insurmountable barrier to indulging in hip-hop culture. Taking inspiration from acts like the Wu-Tang Clan, Nas, Three 6 Mafia, Kid Cudi and others, McArthur, Howieson and Searag got together back in 2011 to try their hand at making music. While a passion for hip-hop fuelled their work, the group acknowledges that rap music was also the easiest way to start

making music. “We didn’t really have a jam space or anything like that,” said McArthur. “(But with rap) I can literally have a microphone in my room and have the guys come over and we can make a record together with just a single microphone.” The group released a mixtape and an EP, which proved there was an interest for their music in Ottawa, gaining some downloads and attention. The Adding Machine has since performed at venues like Ritual, Babylon, Zaphod’s and others, and has worked to distill their sound to something they say is new and innovative. Adding to their hip-hop influences, the group drew on local hardcore metal music to make + + +. “We really wanted to bring an energy and sound to the album that would go over really well live,” said Howieson. “We grew up in the hardcore scene, the metal scene in Ottawa going to shows when we were in high school and university,” he said. Hoping to liven up some of their own live performances, the group took cues from metal music, and infused their work with that same heavy, angry, energetic vibe that gets the crowd on their feet. That certainly comes through in their music, which they describe as a response to the lack of innovation in Ottawa’s hip-hop scene. “A lot of people’s music, it’s like smiley and nice,” said MacArthur. “It’s like, ‘Yeah, you get a pat on the back. We are all great in Ottawa.’ We wanted to do something to sort of turn it on its head.” That means purposefully rubbing

Arreh Searag, a.k.a. Yuukon, left, Johnny McArthur, a.k.a. Defckon, and Ethan Howieson, a.k.a. E.on, make up The Adding Machine, a rap group which released its first full-length album on March 5. The three members grew up in Kanata and hope to bring a new sound to Ottawa. people the wrong way and not conforming to the norm, as evidenced by the new album’s cover – a cow corpse with everything below the head stripped to the bone. Even the album’s name, + + +, which MacArthur describes as “wholly ungoogleable,” is consciously anti-corporate. The album is available to download at any price, including for free. Despite that, the group’s profits have been adding up. “It’s kind of strange seeing money come into our bank,” said Searag, but also proves that there is an appetite for their sound. With plays of their new album growing into the thousands, The Adding Machine will look to hold an album release house party and make some music videos to gain some more exposure. They also hope to tour around Ontario and Quebec, bringing something new from Ottawa to the rest of the province and beyond. “It would be awesome to make it out of here and say we are hip-hop artists basically from Kanata,” said Searag. “It’s something totally different. So that is kind of a personal drive to get that done and see what we can do with it.” To check out The Adding Machine’s new album, go to theadding machine.bandcamp.com.

While some shoppers were surprised when they were recently met with locked doors at several Ottawa Future Shop locations, the head of the Ottawa Chamber of Commerce was surprised it took the company until now to consolidate its two electronic retail brands: Future Shop and Best Buy. “I’m surprised it took this long to rationalize that, just having the two brands out there,â€? said Ian Faris, president and chief executive officer of the Ottawa Chamber of Commerce. While he doesn’t think the closures will impact the consumer in terms of location, “on a weekly sales basis ‌ in store and in their flyers, there might be deals that don’t happen,â€? Faris said. Parent company Best Buy Canada announced Saturday, March 28 it was permanently shuttering 66 Future Shops across Canada, including locations in Kanata and Nepean. Another 65 locations have been closed for a week and are set to re-open Saturday, April 4 as Best Buy stores, as part of the company’s plans to consolidate Future Shop under the Best Buy brand. Soon-to-be converted stores in South Keys, Barrhaven and OrlĂŠans have

been spared from the chopping block. “Many of our Future Shop stores will be renovated and rebranded as Best Buy stores,� the company announced on its website the day of the closure. Best Buy Canada said the store and website consolidation is being done “to strengthen its position as Canada’s leading provider of consumer electronics products, services and solutions� and that “it has reviewed its real-estate footprint to address the fact that a significant number of its Future Shop and Best Buy stores are located adjacent to each other, often in the same parking lot.� Eighty per cent of the company’s customers will continue to be within a 15-minute drive to one of its stores, Ron Wilson, president and chief operating officer of Best Buy Canada, said in a statement. “We will continue to have a strong store presence in all major markets in Canada.� The nationwide closure eliminates 1,000 part-time and 500 part-time jobs across the country. A company spokesman declined to provide the number of employees affected in the Ottawa area. Faris, however, hopes the newly rebranded locations in the capital region will be able to absorb many of the now out-

of-work employees. The company has said these people will be granted severance pay, employee assistance and outplacement support. “Any decisions that impact our people are never taken lightly; our first priority is to support them through this change,� Wilson said. “From a business perspective just having any less competition is not a good thing, but from a jobs perspective hopefully a lot of these jobs will stay around with renamed Best Buy stores.� Still, despite the Future Shop closures and the departure of Target, Ottawa’s retail market is growing, Faris said. Tanger Outlets opened in Kanata last fall with 75 stores, and a number of shopping centres are undergoing revitalization and renovation projects, including the Rideau Centre, Bayshore Shopping Centre, Lansdowne Park and the St. Laurent Centre. “In almost every case there’s expansion, more square footage,� Faris said. “The sheer growth in retail square footage in the market has been very good news for the Ottawa consumer and very good news for employment. “So I think we’re better able to withstand some of the disruptions that are coming from losses from Target and Future Shop.�

Kanata Future Shop closes for good amid consolidation plans

Kanata Kourier-Standard - Thursday, April 2, 2015 19

Learn from your mistakes Continued from page 9

Thankfully, we learn best from our failures. When I’m asked to do a contract now, I typically do a calculation in my head used by successful renovations contractors: I take the amount of time I think I need and then I double it and add half. I don’t respond immediately to the request. I ask for more and thorough information about what’s involved in the contract. I take time to calculate, look at my calendar and get back-up support in place should I require extra human resources during the course of the contract. And sometimes I say no. Leading an active life more broadly means figuring out which ideas are worth developing, which pursuits

are worth pursuing and then proactively developing only those at the top of the list. Before we were married, my husband was about five years into a decent job. With our impending marriage and

Leading an active life more broadly means figuring out which ideas are worth developing ... family, he started to change his mind about what he wanted his work life to be. He took some time to write down precisely what he wanted. There were five non-negotiable elements –

like a short commute and regular work hours – some nice to haves, and things he definitely didn’t want. He was then able to focus action on the elements that were most important. He didn’t waste time looking at jobs outside of his commuting comfort zone, for example. It took a year, but by being focused and active, he eventually landed a position that met all his non-negotiables an included some of his nice-to-haves. It’s hard to say no; it’s hard to resist the temptation to respond to every text and email as it comes in; it’s difficult to take the time to be reflective rather than reacting instantly. But life is far more manageable and negative stress far more disparate when we put these simple tools in place.

Blasting has begun on lands between the Goulbourn Forced Road and Broughton to remove a rock knoll for this retirement residence. I have just received a preliminary site plan, but no formal submission has yet been made to the City. I hope to have more details to present at my next Town Hall Meeting on April 20.

EARTH HOUR Last Saturday was Earth Hour where around the world individuals, businesses and governments, made a special effort to reduce energy usage. Did you participate? Although this was only for one hour, it was a prime time to stop and have a conversation about reducing our environmental impact. Last week I attended a talk about Extreme Weather and Climate, which highlighted environmental trends and the need to do our part to slow the changes down. Ours was a cold winter, but the rest of the world, including western and northwest Canada, had record high temperatures. Talk about the issues and take steps, however small, to reduce your carbon footprint. These steps can include; turning down your thermostat by 1 degree, letting your children walk to school instead of driving them, and walking or cycling whenever possible. Watch for the questionnaire from TACK, a Committee set up to look at transportation issues in our ward, and have all household members, 10 and older, complete it so I will have the facts to give to the City to improve pedestrian, cycling, transit and roadway transportation.

TEDx KANATA Last Thursday the first TEDxKanata event was held. It was a dynamic, sold out evening with 8 speakers, videos and networking time. Videos of this Tedx Talk will be on the Kanata BIA website soon for all to enjoy and be challenged.

TREE REMOVAL Further tree removal is happening at the future school site at Terry Fox and Old Second Line Rd. to prepare for construction this year. Much of the site will remain as a natural area for the students to learn about the environment. KNL will also soon be clearing along the future route of the Goulbourn Forced Road where a water main to serve the school is needed.

R0013208510-0402

The Ottawa Geek Fest was in full swing on the weekend of March 27. With a second arena needed to house the event, cosplayers, gamers and geeks from all over the city gathered to check out and potentially buy all kinds of geeky gear. From buttons to necklaces, wigs to weapons, shopkeepers from as far away as Halifax peddled their wares to people dressed in costumes ranging from cartoon characters to video game protagonists. One such couple dressed up in what is known as “Steampunk.” Costumes and props in the genre are a mixture of Victorian England and modern technology, usually powered by steam, hence the name. Josephine Temperance and Dr. Gustave Morbeus – most likely not their real names but they identified themselves as such – had all sorts of gadgets and gizmos to show off to the crowd. One such invention looked like a wooden box with copper pipes and glass, but according to the good doctor, was a temporal rift generator, which allowed Temperance and Morbeus to travel through time. Though the devices had no such power, onlookers were still very enamoured with the amount of work that went into the device as well as the pair’s appearance. “They’re very beautiful,” said event-goer Lauren Daly Harrod. “I love the amount of work that went into their costumes.” Also at the event was the “Geeky Godmother” who, at scheduled times during the weekend, read nerdy children’s stories to the kids at the event. One such story was a children’s version of Star Wars. Like Comicon and Pop Expo, the event was geared towards the people who have difficulty finding a place to fit in within society. “These are my people,” said Daly Harrod. “I always feel very

City, museums launch treasure trove of online records Emma Jackson emma.jackson@metroland.com

EMMA JACKSON/METROLAND

Ottawa Museum Network chairperson Kathryn Jamieson says the city’s new digital archives project will increase public access to local history. or one of the community museums not yet involved. OMN members Nepean Museum, FairďŹ elds Heritage House, Pinhey’s Point Historic Site and Watson’s Mill are noticeably missing from the list of collections, and that’s in part because some museums don’t have artifact collections to speak of, Lund said. Watson’s Mill, for example, is a “living museumâ€? in the sense that the working grist mill is itself the artifact – and that’s hard to turn into individual data records. “It’s a question of whether they have the artifacts, and if they have photographs of the artifacts,â€? Lund said. That’s not to say the city will turn them away if they want to contribute; on the contrary, Lund said. “This project is a starting point,â€? he said. “We’re pretty open to any Ottawa museum or heritage institution. If they approached us and had interest

the Diefenbunker in Carp, Osgoode Township Museum in Vernon, the Bytown Museum downtown and Museoparc in Vanier. Collectively, the new website hosts 30,000 records, each searchable by keywords and collection. Not everything has a photo attached, but the idea is that if a resident can ďŹ nd a record of the item they want, they can then call or visit the location to see it in person. “(It) is an amazing online tool that lets users discover the history of their city right at their ďŹ ngertips,â€? Taylor told a small crowd of city and museum staff. John Lund, a city archivist and the project’s manager, said the catalogue will grow over time as museum and archive staff continue to dump data into the system. The city is also open to welcoming other community partners to join the project, whether that’s a local historical society

R0013207030

A project nine years in the making has put Ottawa’s history online for all to see – something the city’s community museums hope will boost interest in local heritage. The Ottawa museums and archives virtual collections catalogue launched March 30, instantly making 30,000 records of artifacts, images and documents available to the world. But it’s mostly local residents, students and researchers expected to dive down the archival rabbit hole, which includes everything from armadillo carcass handbags to vintage Ottawa Citizen photographs. “I’m going to love this and I’m sure residents are going to love this just as much,â€? said Bay Ward councillor and Deputy Mayor Mark Taylor, who helped launch the site at the city archives building in Nepean. “When you see 10,000 web hits in the ďŹ rst week, that’s me late at night clicking on everything.â€? The digitization project was mandated through the city’s 20/20 Heritage Plan, which called for a city-wide collections data base. It includes collection catalogues from the city’s archives and two of its community museums: Billings Estate National Historic Site and Cumberland Heritage Village Museum. Another ďŹ ve community-run museums also offered up their digital catalogues: the Goulbourn Museum in Stittsville,

in participating, we would look at working with them to bring them on board.� Kathryn Jamieson, curator at the Goulbourn Museum and chairperson of the Ottawa Museum Network, said the new website greatly expands the amount of content available to the public at any given time. “All of the museums have quite large collections, but typically only a small percentage is used in exhibits,� Jamieson said, noting that items not on display are usually locked up

in storage except for special days like Doors Open Ottawa. “This allows us to get all of our artifacts online over time, and people will be able to see what we have.� Osgoode Township Museum manager Robin Cushnie said that while it may only boost physical attendance at her site by a small amount, access to the remote museum’s catalogue has just increased exponentially by letting people see what the museum has before they make the trip.

“We are in an inaccessible location if you’re not able to drive to us,â€? she said. Instead of trekking there only to discover the information you need isn’t available, now you can ďŹ nd what you need online and simply call up the museum to get copies. “We’ve gone from being a tiny little museum in Vernon to being a museum in the world,â€? said Jane Cooper, a museum volunteer.

Complete Streets Implementation Framework Open House Wednesday, April 8, 2015 Jean Pigott Place, City Hall 110 Laurier Avenue West 5 to 8 p.m., Presentation at 6:30 p.m. Transit routes 5, 14 and Transitway Routes The City of Ottawa invites you to an Open House to learn more about Complete Streets and the plan for implementation within our city.

Celebrate around the world Easter traditions at Billings Estate Easter Bunny to visit with children at historic house Erin McCracken erin.mccracken@metroland.com

In doing some research on egg jarping or egg tapping, an English tradition that dates back to the Middle Ages, Kelly Eyamie was surprised to learn competitors today can take their egg-breaking abilities to the world stage. The goal is to use a hardboiled egg to crack another person’s egg. “They have a world championship of egg jarping,â€? said ERIN MCCRACKEN/METROLAND Eyamie, audience developBrahm Lewandowski, the city’s museum administrator, and Kelly Eyamie, audience devel- ment officer with the city’s opment officer with the city’s museum and heritage program, demonstrate egg jarping, museum and heritage proin which competitors try to break each other’s hard-boiled egg.

doing crafts, you’re playing games. “So what a great way to introduce kids to some traditions from around the world and what the Billings Estate is about.� This year, the Easter Bunny will once again be available during the event for photos and to meet with children. The family fun will include face-painting, an outdoor Easter-egg hunt during which children can search for chocolate eggs, and handson activities such as roasting marshmallows at a bonfire, which is a Scottish tradition, Irish egg-rolling races, which will be a weather-dependent outdoor activity, and throwing water-sponges at fake rabbit targets. This water event is designed to echo Dyngus Day

Easter activities in countries like Hungry, during which people have buckets of water dumped on them or they pick people up and throw them in a river, Lewandowksi said. The Hungarian Easter tradition of sprinkling perfume on people will be showcased at the estate, also with a twist. Participants will be able to make clove- and lavenderscented perfumes. Ukrainian egg painting will also be demonstrated, and people will have the chance to colour eggs with natural dyes, using beets, cabbage and turmeric.

bit and fox cutouts. “Some countries – if the Easter Bunny is busy – they have an Easter fox who would also deliver Easter treats,� Lewandowski said of the tradition celebrated in Germany and parts of Switzerland. “They also have an Easter stork and an Easter rooster,� he said. “The world’s a big place, so the Easter Bunny can’t necessarily make it everywhere.� People are encouraged to dress according to the weather, since a number of activities will be held outdoors at the museum, located at 2100 Cabot St. The cost of the event is $6 per person, $10 for two and $16 per family. Cash payments are preferred. The site features free parking. Transit users can take the 149 bus to the museum, or the 87 and 97 buses to the nearby Pleasant Park Transit Station. NEW EXHIBIT TO OPEN

This year, the Billings Estate Museum marks the 200th birthday of Sabra Billings, the first child of Braddish and Lamira Billings – the original owners of the Billings Estate – and the first settler born in Gloucester. The museum exhibit, entitled, Settlers to Skyscrapers – the Making of a Capital City, opens May 10. “She is a fascinating woman,� Eyamie said of Sabra, who lived to be 97 years old and called the Billings Estate, which was built in 1829, her home for much of her life. “She was very proper, very strict.� Sabra, who never married, was considered an entrepreneur, a farmer, community builder and a philanthropist. She also had the first church built in the community. “So we’re looking at 200 years of Ottawa’s history through her eyes,� Lewandowski said.

Police won’t lay charges in Ride the Rideau death Kanata Kourier Staff

No charges will be laid by police against the driver of a garbage truck that struck and killed an Ottawa woman as she rode her bike in the Ride the Rideau charity last summer. The police collision investigations unit announced March 25 it has closed an investigation into the death of Laurie Strano, 40. The mother of two served as director of quality, patient safety and risk management with the Royal Ottawa Health Care Group. “The death will continue to be investigated by the office of Dr. Louise McNaughton-Filion, the regional supervising coroner of (the) eastern region,” police said in a statement. “The coroner’s findings are used to generate recommendations to help improve public safety and prevent deaths in similar circumstances.” Police were called to the 2600-block of River Road, just south of Doyle Road on Sept. 6, 2014 just after 11 a.m. Strano, who had participated in the charity bike ride every year since its inception, died of her injuries at the scene. The tragedy cut short the fifth-annual Ride the Rideau, organized by the Ottawa Hospital Foundation. Last year’s event drew more than 900 participants, many of whom had to be bused back to the EY Centre, where the event began, as police conducted their investigation. The 29-year-old male driver of the BFI gar-

bage truck remained at the scene and co-operated with investigators, according to police on location. IN STRANO’S NAME

Proceeds from the 21st-annual Telfer Scholarship Golf Tournament, which will take place on Sept. 18, at the Meadows Golf and Country Club, will go to the Laurie Strano Memorial Master’s in Health Administration Scholarship. “Laurie successfully completed the MHA program at the University of Ottawa and her education launched a career in health care that saw her take on progressive leadership and

management roles at The Ottawa Hospital and The Royal Ottawa Mental Health Care Centre,” the University of Ottawa said on its website. “Laurie was an active member of the MHA Alumni Association and an integral member of the organizing committee of the recent 50th anniversary gala celebration of the Telfer MHA Program in May of 2014. “

No charges will be laid against the driver of a garbage truck that was involved in a collision on River Road that killed Ottawa resident Laurie Strano, who was taking part in the Ottawa Hospital Foundation’s Ride the Rideau charity bike ride last September.

Council has agreed to carve up $50,000 between a handful of local organizations running day programs for the city’s homeless population, in an effort to ease the blow of recent federal funding cuts.

The federal government announced earlier this year that it will focus most of its budget for combating homelessness on just that – putting people in homes. While that’s a welcome policy for most anti-poverty advocates, the shift has left organizations that run day pro-

grams and drop-in centres for homeless people in the lurch. The Odawa homeless dropin centre at 510 Rideau St. is slated to close by the end of April, for example, and organizations like Centre 507, the Well women’s shelter and Cornerstone women’s shelter have been faced with the prospect

of drastic cuts when funding gives out at the end of March. But Somerset Coun. Catherine McKenney bought some of those agencies more time on March 25 after she successfully passed a motion at council to make $50,000 city dollars available to bridge the funding gap. The one-time emergency funding would only be available to the handful of organizations who deliver day programs on behalf of the city – likely only four or five agencies, McKenney said. The Odawa

centre is not one of them, since it only received federal funding and isn’t under contract from the city to deliver its programs. McKenney said Cornerstone, Centre 507 and the Well would qualify. The money is meant to ease operational pressures. Many of the sites still operate other programs for the city homeless population, including emergency housing, but the loss of day program funding will impact the administration of the organizations overall, according to social services general

manager Aaron Burry. While McKenney said the emergency pot won’t backfill all of the funding lost from federal and provincial cuts – nor is it meant to – the extra money will at least keep the organizations afloat while they transition to the new realities of a housing-first funding model. “The agencies themselves, they only got a couple months notice,” she said. “It’s not a lot of time for agencies who operate on a shoestring of a budget and haven’t had an increase since 2000.” While the agencies’ funding will run out March 31, the city hopes to deliver the extra cash within 30 to 60 days.

Council endorses mature neighbourhoods infill bylaw Emma Jackson

emma.jackson@metroland.com

A five-year saga to determine how infill should be built in Ottawa’s mature neighbourhoods has come to a close – almost. Council endorsed a revised version of the bylaw on March 25, the result of mediation between city planners and local developers this January. The bylaw will now go to the Ontario Municipal Board for the final stamp of approval – something city planners expect by early May. It’s been a long-time coming: the original bylaw, which was created to address widespread infill development taking place in mature neighbourhoods like Hintonburg and Sandy Hill, began to take shape over two years of public consultation beginning in 2010. Council passed a version of the bylaw in May 2012, but developers appealed it to the OMB. It has taken until now to

resolve the outstanding issues and come up with a bylaw that everyone can live with – no small feat, according to Barrhaven councillor and planning committee chairwoman, Jan Harder. “This policy is the first of its kind in Canada. Nowhere else has a municipality developed a policy to preserve neighbourhood character,� she said, noting that the successful mediation process helped avoid the cost of an OMB hearing. The bylaw will require developers to do a streetscape character analysis to determine what are the street’s defining features when it comes to landscaping, parking and the locations of things like front doors. That applies not only to infill, but also to any extensions, additions or redevelopment of existing homes that are visible from the street. The applicant would need to look at 21 homes – ideally, five on either side of the

File

The city’s mature neighbourhood bylaw is now just waiting for OMB approval to close a five-year process to regulate infill developments in older communities. lot in question and 11 across the street – to figure out the dominant features in the immediate area. From there, the infill design would have to conform as much as possible to that pattern. The point is not to make infill match the nearby houses perfectly, said city planner Beth Desmarais, but instead to ensure nothing looks out

of place. “What really matters is how you feel, what happens as you move along the street,� she said. “What’s jarring, what’s different? You have to look at character from the level of the street.� She said the analysis is an extension of what architects already do when they’re assigned a project: they drive

up and down the street to get a sense of what they should be designing. “I thought, it they’re already doing that, why don’t we formalize it?� Desmarais said. Murray Chown, a project manager with Novatech and the representative for the bylaw’s appellants, said at a March planning committee meeting that he is “cautiously optimistic� the revised bylaw is going to be a positive change. But he said it remains to be seen whether the streetscape tool will actually work. “We’re not going to know until we actually start using it,� he said. At a mediation session at the end of January, city planners and developers met in Toronto to discuss some of the appellants’ outstanding concerns with the bylaw, which was presented in its current form last May. As a result, several parts of the bylaw were modified ahead of council’s approval

on March 25. For example, the parking requirements changed slightly: while driveways and parking spaces should conform with the local street pattern (for example, onethird of the lot width), the bylaw also imposes maximums for each category. The planners and developers negotiated smaller driveway sizes for lots between 6 and 7.49 metres, while allowing shared driveways to be slightly larger than usual. Lots 18 metres wide or more would be allowed a double wide driveway, Desmarais said. Another change was the removal of any mention of basement garages, in favour of a new definition that requires the first floor to include a certain percentage of living space. Effectively, the change outlaws putting a garage on the ground floor with the front entranceway on the second storey, Desmarais said.

It extends the prohibition zone from Greenbank Road west to Highway 416, and from the Jockvale River south to Trail Road. “All we wanted to do was just clarify (boundaries) using the map,” said Roger Chapman,

head of bylaw and regulatory services. “So including Half Moon Bay and those developments, showing it on the map.” The need to establish new boundaries became apparent after a house on Nutgrove Avenue was hit by a small calibre bullet on Jan. 1. News of the incident spread quickly through the community and members of the Half Moon Bay Community Association contacted Barrhaven Coun. Jan Harder within days to discuss a solution. Harder worked with the city’s bylaw and regulatory services to review the map and update it to

protect newer neighbourhoods. The issue, Harder said, is that the original map was drafted in 2001, five years before development began in the Half Moon Bay area. “The last time it was reviewed was before there were homes there, and now, of course, there are thousands,” she said. In 2002 a bylaw was enacted which outlawed firing a gun within 450 metres of a subdivision, school, public building or place of worship. This means it hasn’t been legal to fire a gun in the area of Barrhaven between Greenbank and Hwy. 416 since housing development began there in 2006, but the confusion lay in the outdated map. While this is the first recorded incident of a stray bullet hitting a home in Barrhaven, people are known to hunt in a forested area not far from Nutgrove Avenue. The street sits about 850 metres west of where the original map showed the boundary ending. Ryan Knuth is a member of the Half Moon Bay Community Association and lives on Nutgrove Avenue. Aware that changing a bylaw isn’t an airtight solution, he still feels like the community has gained some ground. “Unfortunately there are still times when people don’t obey the law,” Knuth said. “But if anything it means peace of mind for those of us who live down there, and also for people who are buying homes in the area.” West Carleton is also currently under review to have its discharge of firearms boundaries updated. Chapman said other wards could be affected in the future. To view discharge of firearms boundaries go to www. ottawa.ca and search “By-law No.2002-334.”

Handshake Agreements For various reasons some people decide to have a “handshake agreement” as a basis to deal with a contractor. Others have lawyers prepare comprehensive written contracts. There is no one size fits all approach. But here are a few things to keep in mind:

Hollywood star learned to dance at Kanata studio Adam Kveton

adam.kveton@metroland.com

For Elite Dance Studio director Gail MacMurray, the romantic blockbuster The Notebook plucks at a few different heartstrings than for most. The first time she saw it, she was in tears, rather like the rest of the audience. But, for her, they were tears of joy for her former dance student Ryan Gosling. “I just thought, ‘Oh my gosh, look at him now,’” she said. News that Gosling was a dance student with Elite Dance Studio in Kanata came out the week of March 9, when videos of a young Gosling performing a dance routine with

a group of girls surfaced on YouTube and began making a stir. Now one of the videos has more than 800,000 views, and MacMurray and her dance studio have been thrust into the limelight after it was discovered that she had been the one to teach him at her Kanata studio. It’s a connection MacMurray has never bragged about, she said, but she is very proud of her student. “He just had so much rhythm,” she said of 11-yearold Gosling. “He was charismatic, like he could just track the crowd from a very young age, even adults.” Those were traits she picked out at a small talent competition on CJOH TV on a program

called Homegrown Café. “My daughter happened to be on it at the same time that he was on it,” said MacMurray. “I saw him dancing and I thought, ‘You know, he need to get properly trained.’” So MacMurray spoke with Gosling’s parents and convinced them to enrol their son in her studio, meaning they would have to commute from Cornwall to Kanata two days a week. MacMurray saw dancing as the last weapon Gosling would need in his performance arsenal to have a chance at making it big. “He played instruments, he sang. All he needed to get was the dancing part,” she said. Never shy, Gosling did what he was told, adding his own charismatic flair, to develop his talent and become a triple threat, said MacMurray. “He could just shake it, and he was not afraid,” she said. The YouTube videos, posted by username Shaun Swire, have gained more than a million views altogether. They depict Gosling performing during a dance recital at Centrepointe Theatre in 1992 along with other dancers, including MacMurray’s daughter, Natalie Tessier. As Gosling developed, MacMurray thought it was time he had an agent, and

Soon enough, Gosling was chosen to be on the Mickey Mouse Club TV series after auditioning in 1993. “It was very sad to see him go, because he was one of our super stars, you know,” said MacMurray. Over the years, MacMurray has delighted in watching

as her former student’s star soared, cutting out articles about him in People Magazine and posting them in the dance studio’s office. With the YouTube videos out, a lot of publicity has been generated for the studio, said MacMurray. But the connection to Gosling has also given some inspiration to MacMurray’s current students during the busy and often intimidating competition season. It could well be one of them who MacMurray is watching

on the big screen in the next few years after a happy but tearful goodbye. All the girls at Elite Dance Studio had a crush on Gosling during his time there, said MacMurray, which she thought was a little funny. “But we were all a little heartbroken when he left,” she said. After reaching out to Gosling’s agency, Anonymous Content, the company responded that they would not be commenting on the dancing videos.

City recognizes gaming corp. for funding community projects Staff

Special recognition was recently given to the Ontario Lottery and Gaming Corporation slots at the Rideau Carleton Raceway in south Ottawa. Rideau-Vanier Coun. Mathieu Fleury, on behalf of the

city, presented the corporation with a certificate at the Jules Morin Park fieldhouse on March 20, marking the more than $5 million the city received in 2014 from revenues generated by the slots at the raceway. Those dollars bolster the city’s general revenues account

and have been used on community enhancement projects, such as recreation buildings, the Jules Morin Park fieldhouse in Lower Town, retrofitting buildings with accessibility features and affordable housing. Fleury said communities across the city benefit from the

partnership. “It is heartening to see our parks bustling with residents enjoying services like wading pools, playgrounds, sports fields, pathways with lighting, community gardens, picnic areas and trees,� he said in a statement on March 20.

The slots at the raceway, located on Albion Road just south of Findlay Creek, have so far generated more than $57.7 million in non-tax gaming revenue for the city. Larry Flynn, OLG’s senior vice-president of gaming, said the corporation is proud to be

an important part of the city for more than 15 years. “Since opening OLG Slots at Rideau Carleton Raceway in February 2000, Ottawa continues to do some remarkable things with this revenue for the benefit of its citizens,� he said in the statement.

Craft brewers want new locations Ontario Craft Brewers advocates for dedicated stores to grow jobs steph.willems@metroland.com

The organization that represents Ontario craft beer producers is calling on the province to expand their proposed liberalization of alcohol retailing to include dedicated craft beer stores. On March 24, Ontario Craft Brewers issued a media release designed to add “another idea to the conversation� about the way beer is retailed in Ontario. Currently, the province is working out a way to open up its restricted alcohol retailing system beyond just the publically-owned LCBO and privately-owned Beer Store. Premier Kathleen Wynne has already stated the possibility of allowing large grocery stores to bid on licenses that would allow them to sell wine and beer. Currently, small craft brewers can only sell their wares from a single, on-site shop, or by competing for a spot amidst the limited spaces available on shelves at the LCBO or Beer Store. The craft brewers group is proposing that breweries be able to open a second, off-site store, which would also be able to sell other local craft beers. “The ability to sell in this complementary channel will help grow the industry of 150 (plus) small, independent and entrepreneurial craft breweries that are operating throughout the province, with more planned and opening on a steady basis,� the Ontario Craft Brewers said in a statement. “This new channel would also directly impact the growth of the emerging local hop industry, which is also expanding across the province.� Two years ago, the brewers calculated that there were approximately 1,000 direct craft brewery jobs in Ontario, a number that has

certainly risen since then. Thegroup calculated that the proposal – given growing demand from Ontario beer drinkers and planned brewery expansions and upstarts – would assist in creating 1,000 to 2,000 additional brewery jobs, as well as four to five jobs in each off-site store. “The fact that Ontario Craft Brewers continue to proliferate to the degree they have, in spite of the retail access barriers they face, is a testament to their fierce determination to make world class products and to a surging consumer demand for those products,� said Ontario Craft Brewers president John Hay is a media release. Hay added that craft brewers need a retail channel “that is a true extension of the craft brewing movement.� Neighbouring Quebec, which allows beer and wine sales in corner stores as well as grocery stores, also has standalone craft beer stores reserved solely for Quebec brews. Josh McJannett, cofounder of Ottawa’s Dominion City Brewing Company, said his eastend operation is eagerly following the booze debate in Ontario. Dominion City started operations in September

Existing alcohol laws in Ontario – which date to the late 1920s – are frustrating, McJannett said, adding that the discussion about new retailing models is welcome, albeit overdue. “There are a multitude of issues that add up to a raw deal for Ontario beer makers,â€? he said. “What are these rules intended to protect us from? Clearly it’s from another time and place. ‌ Hopefully the province is serious about changing this.â€?

Having recently returned from a meeting of Ontario hop growers (Dominion sources its ingredients locally), McJannett called the craft beer store idea “a neat concept,� and added that Ontarians want better options on how to purchase craft beer. “Our bottle shop is only open 20 hours a week, and besides select bars, that’s the only time consumers can buy our beer,� said McJannett. “Very soon – and a lot of other brewers

OSU has been pleased to host Coach Luis FernaNdo Paes De Barros of the famed Santos FC Academy of Brazil this past week. Most recently, world superstar Neymar, of Barcelona F.C. was a product of the historic club in Brazil. Santos F.C. are probably most famous for another Brazilian and world superstar – Pele. Coach De Barros has become known internationally for his knowledge and insight into the development of Brazilian players utilizing a methodology of futsal and soccer. He has travelled abroad, most recently being a guest presenter at the English F.A. National Conference and subsequently at the more local Ontario Soccer Conference. OSU Club Technical Director Paul Harris had the pleasure to see Coach De Barros present on both occasions, noting that “Luis’s approach and depth of knowledge on the development of players in another soccer advanced country was something that intrigued him greatly. Harris thought that this was something that could help the coaches at OSU to see first hand another countries player development style and also subject the OSU players to an additional proven philosophy and methodology. Coach De Barros was able to work with a number of our Academy teams this past week. From this, our Academy players have been exposed to another development approach and philosophy, which will aid in their growth as teams and players. “OSU prides itself on providing new and innovative development opportunities for our players and coaches, in terms of their education in the game of soccer,� Harris stated.� These types of opportunities represent tangible development and education to players and coaches.� Through a growing network and reputation in the field of player development, OSU continues to be able to attract coaches of this nature to the club and Ottawa. OSU has a slate of additional opportunities over the forthcoming year with visits from other professional and national team coaches. More information on these opportunities will be posted and found at www.forceacademy.ca

Ecuadorian rescue puppy recovers from serious health scare Crowd-funding campaign launched to offset medical bills Erin McCracken

erin.mccracken@metroland.com

When Rawan Abujoub recently travelled to Ecuador, she never imagined that among her souvenirs she would be bringing back something with four legs. The Glebe resident and Carleton University communications student volunteered for two weeks in late February with children-in-need in Ecuador’s capital city of Quito. When she spotted a puppy in a market, she was instantly drawn to the small three-month-old animal, which looked much younger because he was malnourished.

The puppy didn’t have an owner, which tugged at her heartstrings. “Initially, I felt very sad,” said Abujoub, 23. “There’s a lot of stray dogs, but I had never seen one so small.” She set out to take the mixedbreed dog to a shelter, but was told there was no space for him and that he would likely be euthanized as a result, prompting her to seek out a veterinarian who gave him his shots, checked him over and cared for Theodore Bear, or Teddy, until Abujoub was set to fly home in a few days’ time. When she told her friend and co-traveller, Nepean resident and Algonquin College student Jonathon Myles, her plans, he wasn’t sold on the idea, not knowing the rules around bringing animals back to Canada.

“But after the first night of us bringing him back (to the volunteer residence in Ecuador) and finding him a place to stay (at an Ecuadorian veterinarian), I kind of got a little hooked on him,” Myles said. Teddy became very sick and was diagnosed with a mild infection. But Abujoub’s fears mounted as her dog’s healthy rapidly declined. He appeared unresponsive and his breathing was shallow. After a long flight to Ottawa, the pup’s condition continued to deteriorate, and after making a quick stop, the pair headed to the Alta Vista Animal Hospital, one of the only veterinarian centres in the city that is open on Sundays and provides 24-hour emergency care. See TEDDY, page 44

Erin McCracken/Metroland

Teddy the pup is recovering after suffering a near-fatal health condition and is now enjoying life at his new home in the Glebe thanks to Rawan Abujoub, centre, with the help of her roommate Tori Balson, left, and their friend Jonathon Myles. “That was way to easy!”

Winter was still a long way from over

‘D

on’t count on it,” Father said from behind the Family Herald and Weekly Star. Mother, instead of sitting at the end of the old pine table in front of her diaries as usual, was that night was gathering up mitts, wool hats, and ordering us, the five of us, to put our long underwear in the dirty clothes, because it wasn’t likely we would be wearing it again the next day. Coming from the Northcote school that day, we had to carry our coats as the sun beat down on us, and the smell of spring was in the air. Just a few days before, it was cold and a fierce wind cut across the TwentyAcre Field, and there was no doubt in anyone’s mind that

MARY COOK Mary Cook’s Memories winter was still around. But now, so soon after, the weather changed, and we could see that much of the snow had gone from the fields, and the Northcote Side Road was bare. It was no wonder Mother said spring was in the air, and it was time to get rid of the heavy clothes and that included the long underwear we had been wearing since the first bite of winter in the fall. There wasn’t one of us who

wasn’t thrilled to be rid of the terrible long johns. After months of weekly washings, they had lost their softness, the ankles were stretched beyond repair, and the elastic around the waist hung limp. We were more than happy to bid the long underwear goodbye. That night, Mother was gathering up the mitts, scarves and hats and piling everything on a chair near the back door. It wasn’t Monday, so there

would be no washing. Everything would have to wait for the laundry tub until after the weekend. I could see Father shaking his head from his rocking chair by the Findlay Oval. Finally, he couldn’t keep quiet any longer. “I’m telling you Mabel, there’s plenty winter out there yet. Everyone will be back in that long underwear, you can bet on it.” Mother stopped gathering up the mitts, hats and scarves. “Now, Albert, where were you all day? I’m telling you we’ve seen the last of the snow. Sure, it’s like May out there today.” Father lifted the lid off the Findlay Oval and slapped his pipe into the firebox, emptying it and getting ready for another load of pipe tobacco. He took his time sitting back

down in the rocking chair. And then he went on to explain to Mother once again all the signs that pointed to a long winter and that it wasn’t over yet, and it mattered not how warm it was that day, or if all the snow had gone off the Northcote Side Road. He explained a sure sign was how deep the early snow was. “That’s a sure sign. If the deer can reach the branches of the trees, you can count on a long winter.” He relit his pipe. “And remember when we butchered and the pig liver ‘melt’ showed those little lumps? Well, that told me what we were in for.” Mother just shook her head, and once again told Father that those “old wives tales” as she called them, held no water

with her. The next morning, I could hear Father in the kitchen lighting the fire as he did every morning. And the bedroom had chilled off overnight, as I ran to jump into my clothes for school, so glad to be rid of the long underwear. But it seemed awfully bright out the bedroom window and it wasn’t an early morning sun either. I went to the window and lo and behold, the snow was coming down in buckets. And it looked like it had snowed all night. Then I heard Mother coming up the stairs. She had dug out the long underwear from the pile of clothes we had taken off the night before and without a word, handed them over to each of us. When we went downstairs for breakfast, our hats, mitts and scarves were waiting for us at the back door.

Teddy now ‘a $5,000 dog’ following treatment Continued from page 40

Myles went off to pick up Abujoub’s roommate, Tori Balson, and by the time they arrived back at the hospital, Abujoub had decided not to have Teddy put down – an option they were considering because of his very grave condition and the expensive medical care. “I just couldn’t do it,” she said. The next few days were touch and go as Teddy was treated for parvovirus, a common puppy ailment. Hospital staff told Abujoub that 80 per cent of puppies recover, but they require intensive medical intervention, including intravenous

medicine. “(He) started doing better so (we) continued,” Balson said. “The bill went up, but

“It makes you feel really good.” Jonathon Myles

we got him.” “You’re a $5,000 dog, Teddy,” Abujoub told her dog as he sat on her lap. Now that Teddy has made a full recovery and is back home after nine days in hospital, he is now attempting to play with Abujoub’s cat, chew shoes and put his nose

into everything. He’s also barking for the first time in a long time. The students now feel they have helped save a life. “It was a complete turnaround from what I thought was going to happen when we brought him back,” he said. “I thought it would be just a little bit of care here and there. I thought he would be fine.” Through the trials of worrying about the pup as he lay fighting for his life at the animal hospital, he said he is relieved that Teddy’s story has a happy ending. “It makes you feel really good,” Myles said. But now the friends are

trying to raise funds to offset the $5,000 medical bill, including a $1,500 deposit, which they say they can’t afford to cover on their own. “I’m in a sorority and we fundraise all the time so I thought if we fundraise for other things, we can figure it out for this,” Abujoub said. They launched a GoFundMe.com page and have so far raised about $2,000. “It’s really uplifting,” she said. “I knew that my friends in the community would care, but I didn’t know they would all be so willing to share his story … and even donate themselves.” To make a donation or for more details, visit gofundme. com/giveteddyachance.

Non-eligible ratepayers to pay for program Steph Willems

steph.willems@metroland.com

Low-income households will see their hydro bills reduced under a program introduced by the Ontario government on March 26, while other hydro users will see an increase. The Ontario Electricity Support Program will be administered by the Ontario Energy Board, and will go into effect on Jan. 1, 2016. Factoring income levels and the number of people in a household, a sliding scale is used to calculate how much a qualifying household would save, ranging from $20 to $50 a month. The timing of the subsidy coincides with the elimination of the 10 per cent Ontario Clean Energy Benefit at the end of this year. Jennifer Beaudry, spokes-

woman for Ontario energy minister Bob Chiarelli, said the program would be paid for by adding to non-eligible ratepayers’ bills “an increase of about 70 cents a month.� This means a single person making $28,001 a year will be paying more on their hydro bill to provide a $20 a month subsidy for someone making $28,000 a year. They would also be paying the same fee as those in higher income brackets, and shoulder the burden of future increases. While the looming elimination of the debt retirement charge will save ratepayers an average of $5.60 per month on their hydro bills, the elimination of the OCEB and future rate increases will see Ontarians paying about $120 a year more for hydro, according to comments made by Chiarelli on March 26. Beaudry elaborated on that

figure, stating, “the approximate $10 monthly increase is outlined in The Long Term Energy Plan and factors in the removal of the OCEB.� She added that the ministry was currently tracking lower than that projection. The province’s Long Term Energy Plan, released in December 2013, forecasted a 42 per cent increase in hydro rates by 2018. Hydro Ottawa, the city’s electricity distributor, is currently mulling a five-year investment plan that would see a roughly $10 a month increase to the delivery portion of a ratepayer’s hydro bill by 2020. This alone would add another $120 to the $120 a year increase mentioned by Chiarelli. In 2010, the provincial government added 13 per cent HST to the usage and delivery portions of Ontario hydro bills, replacing the five per cent GST applied previously.

involved in the competition. Gift cards will be awarded to the top male, top female and top buddy, along with draws for some smaller prizes for everyone involved in the event. Best Buddies Canada is a program that helps individuals with intellectual disabilities create friendships with student volunteers so they can have the same experiences as everyone else. “Best Buddies has been one of the most rewarding experiences of my life and seeing the happy faces of our buddies is worth all the effort,” said Salena Nanwani, the co-president of the Carleton chapter. “It’s amazing to see people who have a disability but are so happy and full of life. Their energy is what keeps me going and why I love working with them.” The organization expects about 100 schools to get involved this year; an increase of around 20 schools compared to last year. “In terms of chapters in Ottawa there are 19, and across Canada there are more than 350,” said Brown. “In regard to the amount of people at Carleton University there are 25 students and 25 buddies. “It’s great to have the support from the student leaders. Last year the program wasn’t running too well and the year before the program was non-existent.”

Hope, healing and reflection to help wake ‘sleeping giants’ erin.mccracken@metroland.com

Some came for deep worship, some for reflection, while still others engaged in discussing the necessary next steps to help First Nations people journey on a path towards healing. They came to take part in the Gathering of the Eagles – National Prayer Summit hosted by First Nations, Inuit and Métis Christian leaders at Tudor Hall in the Hunt Club community, from May 26 to 29. Forty years ago evangelical Christian evangelist Billy Graham, former adviser to a number of U.S. presidents said native Americans are “sleeping giants” who are awakening. He was trying to encourage native people to look beyond the wounds of the past, said Kenny Blacksmith, event organizer and founder and executive director of Gathering Nations International, a registered charitable organization that fosters reconciliation and healing, trains youth and provides humanitarian aid.

Emma Jackson/Metroland

The Gathering of the Eagles – National Prayer Summit showcased First Nations traditions and offered time for prayer, healing and discussion from May 26 to 29 at Tudor Hall in the Hunt Club community. “(First Nations people) blame the white man for their problems, they blame the government, they blame the churches and the Indian residential schools,” said Blacksmith, a

member of the Cree First Nation, from central Quebec. “We want our people to look beyond (Graham’s words) and look for the healing that’s going to be more lasting healing from

the wounds of the past and take ownership of some of these issues.” Blacksmith is referring to the mental, physical and sexual abuse that Aboriginal Peoples suffered in Indian residential schools and through the government’s assimilation policies. “We’re basically hoping to stir up faith and hope and healing,” he said of the summit. Aboriginal chiefs from across Canada and members of parliament, as well Prime Minister Stephen Harper were invited to the event. With the Truth and Reconciliation Commission of Canada set to wrap its five-year mandate May 31 to June 3 in Ottawa, it is important that next steps be identified to help more people continue the healing process. The commission has been documenting what happened in the residential schools, where more than 150,000 First Nations, Métis and Inuit children were placed. According to the commission’s website, there were in excess of 130 government-funded and church-run

schools across Canada from the 1870s up to 1996. The commission estimates today there are approximately 80,000 residential school survivors. “And we’re asking our people, is that door going to be closed or is it just going to remain open with a lot of anger and frustration, loss of hope?” Blacksmith said. “Where does it go from here?” The goal of the summit was to help improve and build relationships between natives and the government, churches and all people, through prayer and discussion.

“We’re pulling for more meaningful reconciliation and healing and relationships in Canada on a spiritual level,” said Blacksmith, adding the challenge for Aboriginal Christian leaders today is to engage more First Nations people in that faith. “We have a story to tell one another, to encourage one another that maybe there’s some building blocks that are existing already and we need to just move to rebuild relationships, restore relationships, restore faith in spiritual faith,” said Blacksmith, an ordained Christian reverend.

The Royal to axe 18 jobs amid budget crunch Rising costs, frozen budget leads to $4.2 million gap Steph Willems

steph.willems@metroland.com

The Royal announced March 30 that it will be cutting staff positions as it wrestles with rising operational costs and a fixed budget. A total of 18 full-time positions will be cut from its overall compliment of 1,500 staff, while another 8.8 positions will be reclassified once they become vacant. The mental health centre said it believes most of the job reductions can be made through eliminating vacant positions, re-assigning staff and voluntary retirement. The news comes after the Ottawa Hospital and Children’s Hospital of Eastern Ontario announced similar cuts to staffing levels. The root of the problem is a lack of increased funding from the Ministry of Health and Long-Term Care as the province tries to reduce its $12.5 billion deficit. The Royal, which has a base operating budget of $161.4 million, hasn’t

seen a funding increase in four years. The years 2010/2011 and 2011/2012 each saw a one per cent boost in funding. “Access to mental health care is a matter of growing importance to our community so we will continue to work towards reducing our wait times despite our challenge to reduce costs,” said George Weber, president and chief executive of the Royal, in a statement. “We hope that future funding will reflect the significance of mental health and help us provide more services to more people – not only at the Royal but throughout the continuum of care.” The Royal pointed out that the treatment of mental health and addiction issues has been singled out by the provincial and federal governments as a high priority. On the same day as the announcement, the Ontario government pledged $587 million to combat homelessness. In addition to the staffing reductions, the Royal will be pursuing other costsaving measures to make up the funding gap.

As reporters waited for the opening of the Sens Mile on Elgin Street on March 26, word came that the city’s plan to set up the ceremonial roadway early had been put on ice. A day earlier, city council voted to open Sens Mile (between Gladstone Ave. and Nepean St.) following a motion introduced by College Coun. Rick Chiarelli. The normal practice is to wait until the Ottawa Senators qualify for the playoffs – a tradition raised by Senators president Cyril Leeder in a last-minute letter to the city urging them not to go ahead with the preparations just yet.

Gizmo is a beautiful long haired, black cat with gorgeous green eyes. Black and green he looks so handsome and adorable. When you brush him he is a wonderfully fluffed up... a delight to see. He’s two years old. Loves to wrestle with his best buddy Tray... when all tuckered out he just stretches out a mile long on his blankie for you to admire his beauty.

If you’re leaving on vacation, make sure you’re not also leaving your house vulnerable to break-ins, warned rural south community police officer Const. Stephanie Lemieux. She said break and enters have been on the rise in rural south villages since February, particularly in Osgoode, Greely and Edwards. It’s likely because people are leaving on vacation, possibly for an extended time, which can tip off a potential burglar if steps aren’t taken to make the house look lived in, she said. According to the police crime mapping tool, there have been three break and enters in the outskirts of Osgoode village, including two on River Road on March 13 and 17 and an earlier incident on Springhill Road in February.

Greely has had five break and enters over the course of February and March, including calls to D’Arcy Street on March 20 and to Tintern Drive on March 23. Edwards has had six break and enters between Feb. 11 and March 23, with the last called in on March 7. The break-ins are mostly happening in the daytime, “which is kind of nervy,â€? Lemieux said. She said the best way to protect your home while one vacation is to make sure it looks lived in. That includes having someone shovel your driveway, putting your lights on a timer to click on at night, and getting a neighbour to put garbage out for you each week. “It just shows that people are home,â€? she said. Safety tips for protecting your home during vacation: • Activate your security alarms/put safety bars in win-

dows and doors • Put your lights on timers so they go on and off at different times • Notify trusted neighbours/ family members so they can collect your mail and shovel your driveway • Have a neighbour park their car in your driveway • Use curtains on windows to prevent others from ‘shopping for goods’ • Keep tools, ladders or garbage pails locked away • Don’t talk about your vacation plans to strangers • Secure or remove valuables from your home. “You are the eyes and ears of your community, so please be vigilant in watching for who belongs and who doesn’t belong,â€? Lemieux added. If you suspect a house is being targeted or there is a crime in progress, call 9-1-1. Call 613-230-6211 for other non-life threatening emergencies.
