We Day inspires Kanata students

GO SENS GO!

Charity club members explain why star-studded event is more than a concert Adam Kveton

adam.kveton@metroland.com

We Day, known by some for hosting thousands of students and educators to free concerts with major music stars, held its 50th event at the Canadian Tire Centre on April 1.

The Canadian event, which

continues to expand into other countries along with international charity Free The Children - both founded by brothers Craig and Marc Kielburger - is in fact much more than a concert, said A.Y. Jackson students who have attended the event for several years.

KBCA annual general meeting and news

Look inside for the

Association to host clean-up day

In Your Community Newspaper*

The annual general meeting of the Kanata Beaverbrook Community Association will take place April 14 at 7 p.m. in the Community Centre at 2 Beaverbrook Rd. The association is looking for a new treasurer to succeed Hugh Nelson, who is retiring from the board.

President Neil Thomson said, “KBCA has been left in a strong financial position that will enable us to continue making improvements to the community centre and offer new programs for the community.�

He said installation of an elevator and wheelchair accessible washrooms, scheduled to start this summer, is a jointly funded project by David McKeen, owner of the Beaverbrook Community Centre, and the city of Ottawa.

Preparations are underway for a Mayfair parade and picnic on Victoria Day, May 18, as the as-

programs for adults with development needs.

Over the past year, the community centre has been painted, kitchen appliances have been replaced and a new entrance door will make the building accessible to all.

Relatively new chorus member Barry Read enjoys the camaraderie among the men. “They are a great, welcoming bunch of guys,” he said.

Some of these guys can be found slaking their thirst and lubricating their vocal chords at the Cheshire Cat after rehearsals!

The concert, which starts at 2:30 p.m. on May 9 also features the “Men of Note,” an a cappella ensemble performing spring time music selections, various chorus soloists, audience sing along numbers and more.

Tickets are $15 and are available from chorus members, from Gaia Java and Brown’s Independent Grocer in Stittsville and on line at www.goulbournmalechorus. com.

Mark May 9 on your calendars for when The Goulbourn Male Chorus will present its Annual Spring Concert – and that means an opportunity to enjoy the rich harmony of this local men’s choir.

Entitled “The Bright Side of Life,” the concert promises to deliver 90 minutes or so of uplifting music – some familiar favourites and some less well known pieces.

Under the guidance of recently appointed music director Byron Hermann and accompanied by Lilian McKennirey, the 20-voice chorus will feature songs that “stopped the show:” Broadway music selections including “Ol’ Man River,” “Bring Him Home,” “Luck be a Lady,” “Can you feel the Love Tonight,” “Always Look on the Bright Side of Life” and more.

The chorus will also per-

form a variety of folk songs and spiritual favourites including “Oh Shenandoah” and “Swing Low Sweet Chariot.”

The Goulbourn Male Chorus’s concert is at a new location this spring: Trinity Presbyterian Church at 1817 Richardson Side Rd. in Carp, and GMC president Doug Hall says that the group is excited to be there as the acoustics in the church are excellent.

“And the seating in this modern setting is very comfortable also,” adds Hall.

Vice-president Ian Glen, who chairs the artistic committee for the chorus, is looking forward to the first public performance under the new music director.

“Byron brings his own unique style to rehearsals and to the selection of music.

Branching out into Broadway musical numbers is proving to be both challenging and lots of fun,” said Glen.

Yearly event helps to motivate and give fresh ideas: students Continued from page 1

This year, with acts like rapper Kardinal Offishall, Juno Award-winning artist JRDN, and cast members from Degrassi, We Day lost none of its star-studded appeal.

But with other speakers like the president and cofounder of Ottawa’s Capital Youth Initiative, Patrick Twagirayezu, United States Ambassador Bruce Heyman and his wife, Vicky Heyman, and 14-year-old Russell resident known as a “butterfly child,” Johnathan Pitre, the event gave student activists a chance to learn and be inspired by speakers and their fellow We Day attendees, said members of A.Y. Jackson Secondary School’s Alter Reality club.

Grade 12 students Jessica Crosier, Caleigh Garbutt and Jessica Cooper have each gone to We Day two times or more, and they say their experience at the event each year has been invigorating, inspiring and eye-opening.

Though We Day is free, you don’t get a ticket for nothing. Students have to prove they have taken action on local and global causes to earn a spot. So, while the event is a reward of sorts, it’s not why Crosier, Garbutt and Cooper have fundraised most of their high school careers to build a school in Haiti. But it does help to keep them going and show just how many people have causes like theirs, they said.

The Alter Reality activ-

ism club at A.Y. Jackson has been running for several years, working to support local charities like the Kanata Food Cupboard, and collecting money through school and community events to build a school in Haiti.

Now, having almost raised the $8,000 necessary for the school, the three Grade 12 students hope to have finally reached that goal before they graduate.

The club’s fundraisers, including an annual multicultural buffet and food collection for the food cupboard are what got them and other members of the club tickets to We Day. Every year, the event has given them a chance to see what other students of all ages are doing to make a difference in the world.

“I think it’s like reassurance,” said Garbutt of the event. “You are not alone in this. Everyone else is trying to better this world.”

About 16,000 students and educators were in attendance at this year’s We Day, some of whom were recognized in particular for their charitable work with callouts from the stage, though all had worked to get there.

“It’s just really motivating to know that this group of 16,000 (people) are all trying to make changes – not just the 30 kids back at your school – and that, if we work together, we can all make a difference,” said Cooper.

The event has also given the A.Y. Jackson club ideas

ADAM KVETON/METROLAND

Some of the 16,000 students and educators at National We Day in Kanata hold up the Me to We three finger salute. for supporting other initiatives, she said.

“Last year, Free The Children’s initiative was the Blue Water project, so we did a penny drive. One bag of pennies was enough to build a well … and we raised quite an amount of bags of pennies, so we built quite a few wells from that,” said Cooper.

This year, We Day speakers broke the day down into four sections, focusing on how change can happen through social, technological, educational and economic empowerment, but one common thread throughout the day was that it doesn’t matter how many people you end up helping, but that you find a cause you have a passion for and make a difference by doing something you like.

In support of their cause, Crosier, Garbutt, Cooper and the other members of the Alter Reality club will be holding their annual multicultural buffet in May where traditional food donated by students, teachers and the community will be sold in support of the Haiti school project.

But the club’s latest initiative will take place on the evening of April 10 where the students will bag groceries at the Real Canadian Superstore on Eagleson Road to promote awareness of the club and accept any donations shoppers might give.

Though the three Grade 12 students said they are sad to know they won’t be able to attend We Day again after graduating, they said they hope others benefit from the experience just as they did.

Countering episodes of anxiety

A

nyone who’s suffered anxiety – and most of us have at one time or another – knows there’s nothing funny about it. The lack of focus, that feeling of being overwhelmed by the littlest things. In extreme cases, anxiety can cause shortness of breath, blurred vision and dizziness leading to panic attacks, all of which are scary.

In prolonged and severe cases, it can be very difficult for a person suffering from anxiety to get help because the even the smallest steps toward wellness appear as insurmountable mountain peaks.

But anxiety can be sneaky, often starting as mild or situational anxiety. My bet is that, after the long and very cold winter we’ve had, millions of Canadians are experiencing mild forms of anxiety right now, people that aren’t accounted for in official statistics. There are a few things that can counter the effects of mild anxiety to try to keep it from snowballing into something much bigger.

Avoid alcohol. If the thought of saying no to that after-work drink makes you more anxious, see how you feel after a few days without it. A cocktail at the end of the day may seem medicinal and relaxing – and one drink often is – but it can be easy to go overboard. As tipsy as you get in the evening, the more anxious you’ll often feel the next day.

Breathe out. Maybe you’re about to step into a job interview, write an exam or walk into a room full of strangers. Contrary to the cliche of “take a deep breath,”

BRYNNA LESLIE Capital Muse

forcing breath out of your lungs is actually a much more effective inthe-moment technique. Try exhaling as if holding a straw between your lips. Push the air out hard, but for a long time. Count to 10. To

A quick stint of cardio gets blood pumping into your brain, which can minimize anxiety repeat, inhale for five seconds and then breathe out for 10.

Get some vitamin D. The jury’s out on whether or not supplements are actually effective, but there’s no doubt the real thing is essential to wellness. Now that the sun is high in the sky, it’s much easier to get a dose of D naturally. It may still be too cold to get the full effect of the sunshine drug – which requires bare legs and arms for maximum impact – but standing in the sun, particularly when it’s at its highest can still have an amazing restorative effect.

Go natural. There are a number of theories across multiple disciplines that link modern anxiety to city living.

Contrary to the harsh, repetitive lines in the built environment, nature is made up of abstract shapes. When in nature, it’s hard to focus on any one thing for too long and this has a positive impact on our brains. I liken the brain to a muscle. In built and indoor environments, we seize the muscle, blocked in by walls and stunted by straight lines and artificial noise, making us irritable and often anxious. In nature, on the other hand, our focus is constantly shifting: we can look further, we can see more and, although it may seem paradoxical, our exercised brain is calmer as a result.

Get moving. I’m not suggesting running a marathon every day, or even that you run at all. But if you feel anxiety creeping into your day, try taking a brisk walk around the block. A quick stint of cardio gets blood pumping into your brain, which can minimize anxiety.

It has the added benefit of getting your creative juices flowing and makes you a more effective problem solver.

Finally, make some time in your day to pray or meditate. While nature offers a needed stimulant to the brain, we also need to take it to the other extreme, calm things down and focus intently on something for a few minutes each day.

Anxiety can be sneaky. It can be hard to talk yourself into a walk, or even to breathe when you’re experiencing it. Try practising these things before it creeps up so you can train yourself to respond before that debilitating moment, and maybe help a friend do the same.

Take up fight against fraud

E

ach year, thousands of people across the country lose millions of dollars through scams and fraudulent schemes.

The way to combat this is through public awareness. Letâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s talk about fraud, open up a dialogue and report on the harmful aspects of this type of victimization.

According to the Canadian Anti-Fraud Centre, 66 per cent of Canadian-based mass marketing fraud that took place in 2014 was Internet and email based. Twenty per cent was conducted over the phone and the majority of victims are ages 50 to 70.

Fraud is a terrible thing. It preys on honest citizens who are perhaps investing funds to save for retirement, or making a donation to a charity they trust.

When the relationships break down and the money is gone, many victims feel shame and embarrassment.

However, they can play an important role in investigating fraud, but the anti-fraud centre says just

five per cent report the crimes. If they share their stories, they could prevent other family members, friends or neighbours from falling for the same scams.

Lottery and prize fraud schemes are also on the rise, and the CAFC says that in 2014 more than 4,000 Canadians reported prize or lottery fraud and 652 of those lost a total of more than $4.3 million.

We should all keep in mind the old adage, â&#x20AC;&#x153;If it sounds too good to be true, it probably is.â&#x20AC;?

Keep in mind that most banking institutions and legal firms donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t send out blanket form emails to people asking for their personal information, so donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t give that information to anyone unless you have verified they are a company you deal with and know.

Doing a bit of homework and taking a few extra steps could make all the difference in not becoming a victim of fraud.

Thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s no shame in doing a good deed or saving for your future. We all just need to be a little more careful where we put our hard-earned money.

he dictionary defines charity as â&#x20AC;&#x153;the voluntary giving of help, typically in the form of money, to those in need.â&#x20AC;?

But the dictionary was written a few years ago. A more modern definition might read something like this: â&#x20AC;&#x153;the voluntary giving of help, typically in the form of money, to those in need, as long as the donor gets his name on a plaque.â&#x20AC;?

This is what we draw from recent trends in philanthropy, including the revelation the National Capital Commission has reversed its policy barring onsite donor recognition.

Instead of just mulling it over, as many of us would do, the NCC followed the familiar governmental pattern in paying $35,000 for some consultants to do the mulling.

To the editor,

Now that most of the snow is starting to melt away, the warm spring air has many people out walking and biking around Kanata. It is nice to see. It creates a sense of connection, and leads to all sorts of friendly interactions between neighbours in our communities.

There are many benefits to physical and mental health realized when one engages in active modes of transportation.

Additionally, our transportation-related air pollution drops if we drive cars less, and this helps people breathe easier and reduces our negative collective impact on the planet.

Vehicles burning petro chemicals are also very costly to operate and maintain, so when we walk and bike more, our wallets tend to have more money in them, too.

Unfortunately, many of our streets donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t accommodate pedestrians and cy-

clists well, as the majority of our roads seem designed and operated with people in cars treated as kings. The peasants of the roadway are those individuals walking and biking. A person walking or biking often faces so many unsafe situations they feel distressed. And surveys indicate that many people would like to bike more, but they do not feel safe on the streets doing so.

Yet when one reads Ottawaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s own Transportation Master Plan, passed in 2013, the City says its goals are to create a â&#x20AC;&#x153;supportive built environment,â&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x153;a continuous, well connected pedestrian network,â&#x20AC;? and â&#x20AC;&#x153;a great cycling city.â&#x20AC;?

Ottawa has also committed to offering â&#x20AC;&#x153;attractive intermodal connections,â&#x20AC;? meaning, for example, people riding bikes should safely be able to get to a major bus stop and hop on the public transit system.

Ottawans interested in seeing how committed our elected officials are to achieving these goals need look no further than Eagleson Road. A lack of sidewalks leading to the bridge over Highway 417 meant people walking from Kanata North to the Eagleson Park and Ride were not allowed to use the sidewalks over the winter.

I was talking with a Kanata north

resident April 1st about the awful, cold, wintery, windy detour she had to take on foot in the past couple months because she was walking home from the bus stop and could not use the Eagleson Road bridgeâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s sidewalks. It was not an April Foolâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s joke, but rather the cold, hard reality of being a pedestrian in the nationâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s capital.

What remains to be seen is whether or not city councillors representing Kanata, Marianne Wilkinson and Allan Hubley, will work to improve Eagleson Road for pedestrians and cyclists. In Kanata north, sidewalks need to be built leading to and from the bridge; in Kanata south, we need bike lanes on Eagleson Road.

These improvements are needed immediately.

Veterans Affairs deputy talks inspiration with Kanata seniors Patrick Longchamps

Deputy Veterans Affairs Minister Walter Natynczyk spoke at the Kanata Seniors Centre on March 24.

Natynczyk’s talk covered his background, thoughts on post-traumatic stress disorder and past experiences as the chief of defence staff for the Canadian Forces.

He said the presentation was given to pay respect to the veterans and the community he lives in.

“I was very proud to be your chief of defence, it was a role that I did not aspire too. I had that hand on my shoulder telling me that they wanted me to do the job and I had a tough time,” said Natynczyk.

DO YOU FEEL YOUR PRIVACY IS BEING INVADED ?

If YES learn more. ottawacanadaundersurveillanceattack.blogspot.ca R0013213640

His speech addressed his career path: from chief of defence, to the Canadian Space Agency, and finally to Veterans Affairs.

He mentioned his reason for coming out of retirement and how Prime Minister Stephen Harper asked him to go from the space program to Veterans Affairs.

“I realized something: retirement is overrated. Before I retired, I asked the government for the job of Veterans Affairs minister,” said Natynczyk while explaining how confused he was when they wanted to move him to the space agency.

He also spoke about his struggles with post-traumatic stress disorder along instances where he saw it first hand and what he did to help himself and the others around him.

Many of the attendees said they were impressed and inspired by what they heard during the speech.

“His talks are really good and also interesting because you get to hear someone

from the other side, about something I know nothing about.”

Before and after the presentation, Natynczyk met

with every member of the crowd, introduced himself and answered any questions that were too sensitive in nature for the rest of the room.

Not hearing clearly when many people are talking?

Hearing sensation!

Many people find that they are no longer able to understand everything, particularly when in the company of others. Engineered in Switzerland, System Audéo V has been designed specifically to understand in group situations.

The majority of those surveyed stated that when exposed to considerable background noise they are able to hear that something is being spoken, but can no longer discern precisely what is being said. The words seem blurred and indistinct. But why is that? The effect tends to manifest itselfincompany,orintherestaurant.

It is the high-pitched tones perceived at the entrance to the cochlea that are decisive when it comes to hearing things accurately. In the majority of cases these parts of the inner ear are the first to be affected by noise or aging. As the high-pitched tones are no longer perceived well, the auditory center of the brain begins to struggle to decode language. It’s a bit like an image that doesn’t have enough pixels.

Swiss researchers: Audéo V is superior for conversation.

The new Audéo V devices ensure considerably clearer reproduction of spoken language in company.

New hearing chip developed Swiss audiologists have developed a new hearing chip that restores speech comprehension, particularly with hearing loss in the highfrequency range. People can test the new Audéo V system by Phonak simply by calling now to do so. The test phase in particular is designed to clarify how speech comprehension can be improved in various situations and what role a new technology called “Autosense OS” plays. The chip recognizes where the person being spoken to

is located and amplifies only his or her voice, while ambient noise is lowered and the optimum hearing programs are seamlessly adjusted.

Thanks to several synchronous microphones, the hearing system can detect sound in all directions and select the direction that speech is coming from within milliseconds.

According to Swiss researchers, this significantly augments speech comprehension, especially in conversation. Interested people can register for a no-obligation demonstration of the Audéo V by calling 888.408.7377

Opening in 2015 September

Adam Kveton/Metroland

Being stuck indoors away from the cold has been an issue for most this winter, but students at W. Erskine Johnston Public School have picked up a new hobby to keep them from cabin fever, and to stay warm.

Kathy Lewis, a teacher at W. Erskine Johnston, set up the Finger Knitting Club this winter, with the aim of giving students something to do indoors by teaching them the relaxing skill.

Finger knitting is accomplished by weaving yarn through oneâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s fingers in a particular way to create patterns.

The club has been a hit with students, with 42 students taking part during three monthsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; worth of Wednesday recesses

to knit without needles.

Now, the students are continuing to create wool bracelets, necklaces and scarves on their own time, and hope to start up the official club again in the summer.

Participating in the club has given some students an outlet for their creativity, while giving others a relaxing and productive hobby to do. â&#x20AC;&#x153;At the start I thought I wouldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t like it,â&#x20AC;? said Aislin McBurney, 9. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I thought it was kind of like for grannies, but then once I actually got into it, I thought, â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Oh, this can be for younger kids and parents,â&#x20AC;&#x2122; and itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s actually really calming and useful.â&#x20AC;?

In some ways itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s like yoga, said McBurney, who has started finger knitting outside of school as well. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Whenever Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m in trouble

Experts give parents advice on coping with bullying Megan DeLaire

mdelaire@metroland.com

In the first event of its nature and scope in Ottawa, a panel of experts in child psychology, education and law enforcement addressed concerned parents about strategies for dealing with bullying on March 30.

In addition to a panel presentation, the event called Bullying â&#x20AC;&#x201C; What Can Parents Do? Letâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Talk About It, included community service information booths, and the opportunity for parents to ask questions about responding to bullying more effectively.

The two-fold goal of the event, hosted by Ottawa Public Health in partnership with the Ottawa Bullying Prevention Coalition, was to empower parents to respond to bullying incidents while also providing information on relevant resources and services available in Ottawa. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We heard from parents that they really did want to have a dialogue around bullying,â&#x20AC;? said Ben Leiken, supervisor of

Ottawa public healthâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s mental health and youth section. â&#x20AC;&#x153;They wanted to hear from experts about it. The reason why the coalition put this together was to meet that need that was there. And there was a gap; there hadnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t been something like this that took place yet.â&#x20AC;?

The collaborative event was part of a strategy by the Ottawa Bullying Prevention Coalition to join forces with partners in education, social services and law enforcement and establish a city-wide framework to mitigate the effects of bullying. The Ottawa Bullying Prevention Coalition is led by the Western Ottawa Community Resource Centre. Its partners include Ottawa Public Health, Ottawa Police Service, all four Ottawa school boards and CHEO. Panelists included Dr. Tracy Vaillancourt, research chair in childrenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s mental health and violence prevention at the University of Ottawa; Dr. Phil Ritchie, a CHEO psychologist; Anne McKillopOstrom principal of inclusive safe and caring programs

with Ottawa Carleton district school board; Ottawa police constable Carissa Beck; and Paul Richardson, superintendent of the French Catholic School board. Speakers discussed impacts of bullying on mental health from childhood through adult life, how to monitor for signs of bullying and communicate with youth about bullying, and what help schools and city services can offer parents.

According to Angela Larusso, lead of the Ottawa Bullying Prevention Coalition, the panel event and the coalitionâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s efforts going forward should complement the bullying prevention resources already available in Ottawa, connecting them with the people who need them most. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We do see pockets of services and resources but we need to be more coordinated in the way that we support all children and their families,â&#x20AC;? said Larusso. â&#x20AC;&#x153;This is part of a bigger, more comprehensive plan of action.â&#x20AC;?

Trustees nail down public school board cuts Lengthy, often-heated meeting ultimately aimed for balance in budget for the upcoming fiscal year Steph Willems steph.willems@metroland.com

Trustees of the Ottawa-Carleton District School Board, many of them new to the job, were put in an uncomfortable position on March 31 as they decided which staff positions will be cut for the coming fiscal year.

Ultimately, the group chose an option that spread the cuts over a wider net, though it still meant four special education positions would have to be eliminated.

With operational costs rising and Ministry of Education funding stagnant, the board needed to find efficiencies to cover the shortfall. Staffing makes up the majority of the board’s expenditures, meaning a portion of the $7 million to $8 million in savings needed to be found in that pool.

A staff report to the committee of the whole a week earlier had called for a loss of 14.67 special education positions, in addition to other cuts that totalled 28.71 full-time

equivalents. A motion tabled by board chairwoman Shirley Seward and passed by trustees on March 24 instructed staff to take the special education cuts off the table and find the savings elsewhere.

As the clock ticked towards the March 31 midnight deadline for staffing decisions, trustees searched for a way to ensure the cuts didn’t disproportionally impact the most vulnerable students.

After consulting with staff, Zone 3 trustee Donna Blackburn introduced a substitute motion calling for a total of four special education positions (two learning support teachers and two learning resource teachers) to be eliminated and a further four instructional coach positions to be cut (on top of staff’s proposed reduction of five coaches).

A second central principal position cut was included in the motion after an amendment by Zone 12 trustee Sandra Schwartz passed.

“What I proposed, I think

is a balanced approach,” said Blackburn, who supported Seward’s original motion calling for no special education cuts. “I think we should meet staff halfway.”

Seward, Zone 9 trustee Shawn Menard and Zone 2 trustee Christine Boothby spoke out against the motion, though trustees Lynn Scott (Zone 1) and Mark Fisher (Zone 7) said they felt it provided a reasonable solution to an imperfect situation.

Director of Education Jennifer Adams spoke to the situation and the alternate staffing proposal that was at the heart of Blackburn’s motion.

“To be frank, we haven’t been in a reduction mode in quite a while,” said Adams.

“This is what we’ve been looking at for several months now.

We would prefer not to make any reduction to any staff, but … our way of thinking now is that if we have to make reductions, we have to make them in a balanced way across many performance areas.”

Ultimately, the substitute

motion was defeated after a tied vote, at which point the original motion from the March 24 meeting was put on the table to be amended.

Trustee Ellis moved that the motion be amended to include no cuts to special education, at the expense of a further eight instructional coaches eliminated.

Trustee Schwartz remarked that while she was a huge proponent of special education, “I feel we’re robbing Peter to pay Paul here,” adding that the province was doing a huge disservice to the program by underfunding it. A 13-fulltime-equivalent reduction in instructional coaches would mean a loss of one third of the positions in the board’s elementary schools, she said.

Trustee Menard then moved to amend Ellis’s amendment calling for an additional eight cuts to instructional coaches, reducing the number to the original staff-supported five

positions.

“We’re whittling the reductions down to nothing,” said trustee Fisher. “We’re adding all the spending back in, hoping that there’ll be savings found in phase 2 (of the budget). It’s a spend, spend, spend methodology that’s not going to work these next three years.”

Trustee Scott remarked that the group was “lurching from one extreme to another.”

The board’s chief financial officer, Michael Carson, said that about $2.5 million in savings would have to be found in staffing, as phase 2 of the process covers facilities, maintenance and services – something that carries very fixed costs.

Trustee Menard responded to Fisher’s remarks by saying that even with the special education staff and extra instructional coaches taken off the chopping block, they were still coming close to meeting

Carson’s savings targets.

Those amendments to the original motion didn’t pass when put to individual votes, leaving the trustees against the wall and running out of time.

Trustee Scott then moved that Blackburn’s original substitute motion be reconsidered. When tabled, it carried, though by a slim margin.

The exhausting evening spent deciding unpleasant things clearly frayed the nerves of some trustees, leading Seward to allay worries about the conduct of the meeting.

“I think the debate tonight was extremely healthy,” said Seward. “I don’t see disagreement on policy as ‘not getting along’ – we were elected to engage in healthy debate.”

The budget process will continue through the spring, with the final, staff-recommended budget being presented to the committee of the whole on May 12.

Sky’s the limit at central library consultation Laundromat, bike check-out among blue-sky ideas for a new main branch Emma Jackson emma.jackson@metroland.com

Week in Review I would like to thank Glen Cairn resident Judy McKenna of Kakes by Judy for creating the beautiful snowmobile cake that was presented to the Mayor at his welcome back reception last week. For more information about Judy and her cakes please visit www.kakesbyjudy.ca.

Spring Traffic Calming In 2013 the City of Ottawa’s Traffic Services Branch, initiated a pilot project of Temporary (seasonal) Traffic Calming treatments on a number of local and collector streets. The Temporary Traffic Calming (TTC) treatment refers to the installation of flexible delineator signs (flex-stakes) on the centerline of a roadway, typically within school or playground areas.

The flex-stakes are used as a low cost tool (compared to other traffic calming alternatives: speed humps, curb narrowings, etc.) to narrow the effective road width, discourage excessive vehicular speed, and warn drivers of an adjacent school/playground. By the end of the 2014 summer season the Temporary Traffic Calming Program included the installation of flex-stakes at a total of 53 locations. On average, for all 53 locations, the 85th percentile speed was reduced by 5Km/hr and the rate of compliance was increased by 20%. This Spring, the flex stakes will be re-installed at their previous locations on Chimo, Equestrian, McCurdy, and Steeple Chase.

Would you like a latte with your latest spy novel? How about throwing in some laundry while you check your emails?

All this and more was on the table at a packed public meeting to see what residents want in a re-imagined central library on March 31.

Nearly 200 people flocked to city hall for the consultation, and another 500 tuned in online. They watched a presentation highlighting some of the best features of modern libraries across Canada and the world before breaking out into brainstorm sessions with library staff.

Ideas from the blue-sky session ranged from 3D printer

access to a bike check-out program. Someone suggested adding a laundromat – that got a lot of laughs – but library board chairman Tim Tierney said it’s all on the table at this point.

“As much as we love books and Dewey decimal systems, there is a heck of a lot more (to libraries) than that,” he said.

Creating a teen zone was a common suggestion at the meeting, he said, and the importance of open gathering spaces came up again and again.

Having natural light, places to plug in your electronics, and offering a comfortable place to access information are all key elements.

“Twenty years ago, it was all about ‘shhh, quiet,’” he said.

“Well, that’s not what libraries are about anymore. Vancouver has a pizza joint in their library. We want to look at all opportunities.”

The point of the consultation, Tierney said, was to define what exactly Ottawa residents expect to see inside their central library: do they want to keep the cramped 40-year-old

“bunker” on Metcalfe Street, or do they want a re-imagined community hub that’s accessible to all and offers more than just a holding place for dusty books?

That’s more like it, said Tierney, who worked the room listening to comments from residents – feedback that overwhelmingly supported scrapping the current location, which offers little natural light, poor cell phone and Wi-Fi reception and very little in the way of community space.

The feedback will help library staff present their business case for a re-imagined central library this June, when the city will officially decide whether or not to move forward on the project.

At that point, staff will begin to work out the details of where such a hub might be located.

While the March 31 consultation was more about the interior details, Tierney said participants were clear the library should be accessible.

“Lots of comments were that it should be near transit,”

In addition to the flex stake signage pilot project, my office has implemented speed pavement markings on a number of streets across Kanata South that identify the speed limit on the roadway. This has proven to increase speed compliance by 17%. Public Works will be re-painting the speed limit markings on Rothesay, Chimo, Meadowbreeze, Steeple Chase, Grassy Plains, Stonehaven, Bridgestone and Abbeyhill .

In addition to the previous locations from 2014, we will be adding speed pavement markings to Pinehill, Stonemeadow, Castlefrank, and Pickford.

Tierney said. “The existing location services a smaller portion of the area and it could be a lot more if it was closer to the transit link.”

The library board has been considering the possibility of building a new central branch – likely with the help of a private partner – since last summer.

The city abandoned its plans to build a new structure in 2010 in favour of trying to fix up the current branch.

But a report published last July found the existing building would require $40 million in renovations to just get the library up to 21st century standards, and as much as $70 million to expand the space enough to offer a full range of uses for its 14,000 weekly visitors.

The library board directed staff to report back in 2015 with options for building a central library at a new site.

The library has already hired a consultant group to draft the business case for how the city might move forward in a public-private partnership.

City hall alive with the sound of music

emma.jackson@metroland.com

Residents can catch free chamber music concerts this spring thanks to a partnership between the city and the Ottawa Chamber Music Society, also known as Chamberfest Ottawa.

Every Wednesday until May 6, performers will fill city hall with the sound of music between 12:15 and 1 p.m.

NAC Orchestra members Carissa Klopoushak, a violinist, and Julia MacLaine on the cello kicked off the new sixweek “city series” with several classical duos on the hall’s main concourse on April 1.

Chamberfest’s education and community engagement co-ordinator Colin McFarland said the concert series not only promotes the 15-day festival scheduled for July 23 to Aug. 6 this summer, but also puts chamber music in the path of people who may not know they like it.

“It’s a perfect opportunity for new people to encounter what we do,” McFarland said.

While the series will hopefully drive paying customers to Chamberfest events later this summer, McFarland said the city hall series is more than a prelude: not all of the performers on the spring line-up will take part in the festival, for one thing, and the series is also part of the society’s larger mandate to educate the public on the

SERIES SCHEDULE

• April 8: Jesse Stewart: DOME (Dynamics of Musical Exploration) • April 15: Le Quatuor Despax: Cendrine Despax (violin), Jean Despax (violin), Maxime Despax (viola), Valérie Despax (cello) • April 22: uOttawa School of Music String Quintet: Joel Quarrington (supervisor), Kathryn Koch (violin), Jessica Ramsay (violin), David Endemann (viola) • April 29: Ottawa Children’s Choir, Conductor: Jackie Hawley • May 6: Chorale De La Salle, Conductor: Robert Filion.

COMMUNITY INFORMATION The Kanata Beaverbrook Community Association (KBCA) is holding their AGM on April 14 at 7pm at the Beaverbrook Community Centre, 2 Beaverbrook Road. They are looking for a volunteer Treasurer – details are at www.kanatabeaverbrook.ca.

I’ve asked for an additional information session for residents adjacent to the French Public School, on Halton, once final plans are available. Those affected will be contacted at that time.

The construction of Klondike from March Rd. to Sandhill Rd. will begin soon. Details will be available at my Town Hall Meeting on April 20.

TREE REMOVAL ON KNL LANDS I’ve been informed that tree removal for KNL will likely begin today. Earlier this week fencing was being erected along the road allowance for the new alignment of the Goulbourn Forced Road. Cutting at this time is only within that future roadway. The fencing is to keep cutting within the right of way and protect the site from wildlife. Work will be completed by April 15 as cutting is not permitted between April 15 and August 1, when birds are nesting. It has received all required approvals from the Ontario Ministry of Natural Resources and Forestry(MNRF) in respect to possible impacts on Blandings turtles and Butternut trees.

I’ve also been informed that some additional tree cutting is occurring at the public school site at Terry Fox and Old Second Line Road. Construction of this school is to start this summer so that it will be ready for students in September 2016. The edge of Trillium Woods will be protected, along the east edge of the pathway that runs along the Second Line Road allowance. The stand of White Pine trees that form the north edge of the school site, along Terry Fox Road, will also be protected and will have been incorporated into the design of the school site. Tree protection fencing has been erected and checked by City staff. The pathway along the Second Line road allowance in Trillium Woods will be closed only during active tree clearing operations, so please use it in the mornings before cutting starts or later in the day after cutting ends.

joys of chamber music.

And the concerts are good for city hall, as well.

Mayor Jim Watson told the crowd gathered on April 1 that city staff has worked hard to make city hall a “people place” and a gathering spot to take in local arts and culture.

“I encourage all residents to make their way to city hall for one or all of the performances,” Watson said.

The annual Chamberfest is the largest of its kind in the world. This year it includes 450 artists and more than 100 concert events.

It will feature internationally renowned pianist Andre Laplante, the Danish String Quartet, 13 concerts focusing on Joseph Haydn, and several theatrical events including #UncleJohn, a modern retelling of Mozart’s Don Giovanni.

All performances for the spring concert series will take place in the main concourse except for the performance on April 8, which will be held in Jean Pigott Place.

Students take bullying prevention tips from pro hoops player Harlem Globetrotter player dishes a lesson on deterring bullies Megan DeLaire mdelaire@metroland.com

Students at Adrienne Clarkson Elementary School tested their ballhandling skills against those of an NBA basketball player on March 31 in the name of bullying prevention.

Harlem Globetrotters player Julian ‘Zeus’ McClurkin educated students on the Globetrotters’ ABCs of Bullying Prevention as part of radio station Majic 100’s presentation entitled No More Bullies. The aim of the collaborative event was to teach the roughly 700 students from grades one through six how to take steps to prevent bullying rather than being passive bystanders, or worse, participating in it.

Entertainment was the main medium for getting the message across as McClurkin, towering over students sitting cross-legged on the gym floor, punctuated his talk by dribbling and twirling a basketball.

McClurkin told the students about his struggles as a pre-teen underdog. He said he was cut from every team he tried out for from seventh through 10th grade but persevered and eventually earned a spot on his high school basketball team. After a few more setbacks and triumphs in college, he was recruited to join the Harlem Globetrotters, a basketball team famous worldwide for the athleticism and comedy they bring to the court.

“I know sometimes it’s frowned upon in school, but actually, if you

tell on a bully, you’re really helping a person out,” McClurkin told students, adding that walking away from a confrontation rather than being aggressive, and extending friendship to a bullied student are the best ways to demonstrate bravery and compassion. Action, bravery and compassion, McClurkin said, were the ABCs of bullying prevention.

“A bully most of the time will never stop bullying people until they get in trouble for being a bully. So the proper action to take is to tell a teacher.”

Majic 100’s Stuntman Stu regaled students with stories of his own experiences with bullying. Stu reminded students that it is never alright or normal to feel victimized.

“You should never hate coming to school,” he said. “You should never wake up in the morning and have that feeling in the bottom of your stomach that you do not want to go to school.”

The solution to this feeling, Stu said, was to speak up about being bullied.

“If somebody’s picking on you in the schoolyard, you let the teacher know. If you don’t ever tell the teacher, the teacher can’t help you.”

COPING SKILLS

Peter Joynt, an Ottawa hip-hop artist, addressed students about growing up with a severe stutter. He described ways he’s developed to work around it, and how he’s coped

with bullying.

“I focus on all the good and the rest just goes away,” Joynt said. “Often times, when somebody bullies you, they’re just looking for a reaction. Don’t give in. Believe in yourself and think positively. And that positivity and those good vibes will take you very far in life.”

The presentation culminated with five volunteers – three students and two teachers – joining McClurkin for some group ball-handling exercises while the Harlem Globetrotters theme song Sweet Georgia Brown played.

Rachel Antaya, 11, was one of the student volunteers watching the presentation, and she said McClurkin’s message was well received by the students.

“How he was bullied as a kid; I think that is a big factor,” Rachel said.

Reese Clark, nine, was another volunteer who shared her advice for students facing bullying.

“Stand up for yourself, be positive,” she said. “If somebody is being bullied, you can go over (to them) instead of looking and just watching.”

“Help them out,” added the third volunteer, Costa Grillas, 11.

The Harlem Globetrotters developed the ABCs of Bullying Prevention in collaboration with the National Campaign to Stop Violence, an American non-profit organization.

Members of the team present the program at more than 400 schools each year in an effort to teach lessons of

The campaign is one of five that Globetrotters players promote as goodwill ambassadors. The other four campaigns focus on hospital community outreach, encouraging healthy and active lifestyles, and rewarding children who spread goodwill and display leadership.

McClurkin said he chose to promote the ABCs of Bullying Preven-

tion in order to maximize his positive influence with youth to prevent bullying, something he’s experienced.

“This one specifically really touches my heart because (bullying) is so prevalent today in our youth,” McClurkin said. “One thing I’ve noticed is that kids really look up to athletes and they’re able to see that if we were able to overcome being bullied, then they can do it too. They can go on to do whatever they want. in life.”

Police take stock of public opinion in online survey Check your mail.

Yours could be one of 16,000 households randomly selected to provide feedback to the Ottawa Police Service on its performance, as well as on crime, safety and priorities in your community through an online survey.

During March and April, the service is randomly mailing out an invitation to 16,000 people in Ottawa to go online to a secure portal and fill out the departmentâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s 2015 public survey.

Youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll be asked for your opinion on the level of crime in your neighbourhood, your concerns and to let police know how theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re doing, including what you think of the services they provide, including victim and investigative services. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The results of the survey will help to improve the quality of service and ensure the needs of Ottawa residents are addressed,â&#x20AC;? police said in a statement issued on March 24. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The information collected from the public survey will

also assist the (Ottawa Police Service) in identifying public concerns and priorities for the upcoming 2016-2018 business plan.â&#x20AC;?

Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s the police departmentâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s seventh public survey since 1995.

The deadline to submit answers is April 30, and final results are expected later this spring.

For the most recent questionnaire â&#x20AC;&#x201C; conducted in 2012 â&#x20AC;&#x201C; 16,000 invitations were mailed out.

Of those, 536 were returned as invalid addresses, while 3,147 were completed.

The response rate was 20.4 per cent, which police considered good, but that was lower than the 35 per cent response rate in the 2008 survey.

The service said this was largely due to survey fatigue and that respondents were asked to log onto a secure website to complete the survey rather than provide written answers on paper.

In addition to receiving answers to 63 close-ended questions and 21 open-ended questions, respondents provided data on their age,

gender, language spoken at home, household income and size, as well education.

Some past survey results revealed that: â&#x20AC;˘ Peopleâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s perceptions of crime trends in the city have improved since 2006. â&#x20AC;˘ The most important concern was speeding vehicles and aggressive driving. â&#x20AC;˘ Overall satisfaction with policing services was considered very high at 81 per cent. â&#x20AC;˘ Four per cent of respondents were dissatisfied with the departmentâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s services. â&#x20AC;˘ Seventeen per cent of residents say they have been a victim of crime, down from 21 per cent in 2008.

People were also asked about the Neighbourhood Watch program and Crime Stoppers, among other topics in the last survey.

Four members of the Nepean-Kanata Barracudas swim club qualified for and have completed trials for the 2015 Pan American Games in Toronto. The group were expected to learn by the last day of trials, on April 4, whether any of them had earned a spot in the upcoming Games.

Jessica Yu, Janet Zhao, and Aleasha Knight, all 17, and Katie Breault, 16, left for Toronto on March 30. Qualifying for trials â&#x20AC;&#x201C; which ran from April 1 to 4 â&#x20AC;&#x201C; was the first step in making it to the Pan Am Games. Each of the four swimmers specializes in a different technique, practicing fly, breaststroke, backstroke and freestyle respectively, so each swimmer could potentially qualify to compete in the Games in Toronto this summer.

Monique Knight, president of the Barracudas board of directors, said that while the club has had swimmers compete in Olympic and world trials before, she canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t remember ever having swimmers reach the Pan Am trials. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Everybodyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s really excited,â&#x20AC;? Knight said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s nice to be sending a group of four.â&#x20AC;?

The Pan Am Games are the worldâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s third largest international multi-sport competition, surpassed in size and scope only by the Olympic Summer Games and the Asian Games. More than 7,000 athletes from 41 countries across the Americas and the Caribbean will convene in Toronto to compete in 36 Pan Am sports and 15 Parapan Am sports.

Swimmers from 42 countries will compete between July 10 and 26. Swimmers will compete in five different strokes contested at distances of 50, 100, 200, 400, 800 or 1,500 metres.

According to Scott Faithfull, the clubâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s head coach, the Barracudas four qualifiers needed to show exceptional levels of commitment to qualify for the trials. Each girlâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s training has required her to swim for 25 hours every week, logging time in the early morning hours before school, after school and on Sundays. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The talented kids will make it to a certain level, but they wonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t go past that unless they are willing to do the hard work,â&#x20AC;? said Faithfull. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The level of commitment it takes to succeed â&#x20AC;&#x201C; you need the 25 hours a week.â&#x20AC;?

Should any of the four qualify to compete in the Pan Am Games, sheâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll return to Ottawa and continue to train, albeit with a specialized regimen, until the games in July.

But competing in the Pan Am Games isnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t everything for the Ottawa swimmers, as they have ambitious plans for the future simmering. Yu and Breault will soon complete their final years of high school, while Zhao and Knight are poised to begin university. Knight will head to the University of Maryland, Baltimore County, on a swimming scholarship and Zhao will travel to Princeton University to start the next chapter of her career.

Regardless of the outcomes of the 2015 Pan Am Games trials, all four will have earned the opportunity to compete against Canadaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s best swimmers.

The regional coroner for inquests has announced the inquest into the death of Rowan Stringer will take place at city hall, and will begin on the morning of May 19, just over two years from the date of the 17-yearoldâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s death.

Rowan, a 17-year-old John McCrae student, died on May 12, 2013, after suffering a head injury while playing rugby several days earlier.

The inquest is expected to last 14 days and to hear from 15 witnesses.

The hearing will examine the circumstances surrounding Rowanâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s death, with hopes of a jury using the findings to make recommendations that will help prevent similar deaths.

An inquest is launched whenever the coroner determines its findings could be in the publicâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s interest.

Dr. Louise McNaughton-Filion, the regional supervising coroner for east Ontario, will preside as inquest coroner and assistant Crown attorney Mark Moors will be counsel to the coroner.

When the inquest was announced in February, McNaughton-Filion gave an idea of what to expect. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re going to be listening to the circumstances surrounding Rowanâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s death and determine the answers to those questions,â&#x20AC;? said McNaughton-

Suspect arrested after four banks hit in eight days Police investigate 26 bank robberies so far this year Erin McCracken erin.mccracken@metroland.com

Police have made an arrest following their hunt for a male suspect they allege robbed three banks and tried to rob another – all in the south and east ends of Ottawa in eight days.

Surveillance images of the suspect had been released before, but robbery investigators hoped an image taken from cameras inside an Ogilvie Road bank during the most recent bank robbery would help crack the case.

Then on Thursday, April 2, an Ottawa man “was located and arrested without incident in the Vanier area by the Ottawa police,” Staff Sgt. Mi-

chael Haarbosch, head of the police robbery unit, said in a statement on April 3.

Prior to the arrest, Haarbosch said in an interview he couldn’t think of a recent case in which one person was believed to be responsible for so many bank robberies in such a short period of time.

“We’ve seen them where they’ve done that many, but it’s usually not that confined (in such a short timeframe).”

In the Ogilvie Road robbery – Ottawa’s 26th bank robbery this year – police allege a lone male suspect entered the bank at the Gloucester Centre, at 1980 Ogilvie Rd., on Monday, March 30 at 4:35 p.m.

He passed a note to a bank employee demanding cash and indicating he was armed, though no gun was seen, according to police.

However, unlike the three previous bank robberies police believe he is responsible

“The goal is always to get (the suspect) in and out of the premise as quickly and as safely as possible,” said Haarbosch. “The advice we typically provide is that you co-operate and give them what they want and get them out.”

The string of robberies began on Tuesday, March 24 at a bank at the South Keys Plaza near Bank Street and Johnston Road.

A male suspect entered the premises at 4:05 p.m. and produced a note demanding money. He then fled with an undisclosed amount of cash and headed along a footpath toward the Johnston Road area.

Three days later on Friday, March 27 at around 2 p.m., a suspect targeted a bank in the 1900 block of Montreal Road near Ogilvie Road. In addition to passing a note demanding cash, the paper also indicated he was armed with a gun, though none was seen.

Again, the suspect made

off with cash, investigators said.

Two days later, on Sunday, March 29, a male went into a bank inside the St. Laurent Centre at 3:55 p.m. and also passed a note demanding money and indicating he had a gun, though none was spotted.

The suspect fled with a quantity of cash, according to officers.

No one was injured in the four bank robberies.

Police then announced they believed the same suspect was responsible for all three crimes, and described him as a Caucasian male, between 20 and 25 years old and about five-foot-eight. In each case, he wore sunglasses and a hat.

During one of the robberies, an eyewitness said the suspect had ear-gauges, which are hoops that come in different sizes and are used to stretch a person’s earlobes.

BANK ROBBERY NUMBERS CONTINUE TO CLIMB

The city’s rising number of bank robberies remains troubling for police. By this time last year, they had investigated 11 bank robberies.

There were 30 bank robberies in total in 2014.

“It’s a significant number this early into the year before the end of the first quarter,” said Haarbosch, adding that three bank robbery suspects are to blame for multiple cases, which have largely affected banks downtown and in the south and east ends of the city, including Orléans and Blackburn Hamlet.

Two suspects are still wanted in connection with several of those cases.

Rideau Street storeowner robbed, assaulted: police Erin McCracken

erin.mccracken@metroland.com

Two men who police say travelled in a taxi cab to and from the scene of a violent retail robbery on Rideau Street were caught on the vehicleâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s video surveillance cameras.

Those images may be the key to cracking the case for police as they work to determine the identities of two males they believe are connected to the assault and robbery of a storeowner at a retail business in the 100 block of Rideau Street on Thursday, March 26.

After arriving by cab at 8:42 p.m., the male in the backseat entered the store, while the front-seat passenger remained in the vehicle, said Staff Sgt. Michael Haarbosch, head of the Ottawa police robbery unit.

Inside the store, the suspect pulled a handgun and demanded the storeowner turn over valuables, said Haarbosch. â&#x20AC;&#x153;When the storeowner didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t immediately comply, he assaulted him with the handgun,â&#x20AC;? said Haarbosch, declining to elaborate on the victimâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s injuries, only saying that he required medical attention and was treated in hospital and released.

The suspect also took personal property belonging to the victim. Haarbosch declined to reveal what was taken from the owner. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We want to keep something back to assess the credibility of the tips as they come,â&#x20AC;? said Haarbosch.

The suspect then fled to the waiting taxi. The driver dropped the pair off at another location in Ottawa, which Haarbosch also declined to disclose. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We have interviewed the cab driver,â&#x20AC;? he

said, adding that he is not considered a person of interest.

Police have investigated cases before in which cabs were used to commit a crime and the taxi meter was running.

Ottawa Police Service/Submitted Investigators do not believe the robbery and Two men are wanted by police in connection with the alleged robbery and assault of a assault were motivated by a personal vendetta, retail storeowner in the 100 block of Rideau Street on March 26. but rather for financial gain.

Despite the initial attempt to make off with valuables from the store, the personal items taken from the storeowner did not have a significant monetary value, said Haarbosch.

The male who entered the store is considered the primary suspect in the case and police said the male waiting in the cab is a person of interest.

â&#x20AC;&#x153;When the storeowner didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t immediately comply, he assaulted him with the handgun.â&#x20AC;?

Staff Sgt. Michael Haarbosch, robbery unit

The primary suspect in the case is described by police as a black male, about five-foot-nine and was wearing a grey hooded sweatshirt, grey jogging pants, black running shoes, white gloves and a white balaclava.

The person of interest is described only as a black male.

Anyone with information on the case is asked to call the Ottawa police robbery unit at 613-236-1222, ext. 5116, or call Crime Stoppers at 613-233-8477.

The view along the parkway next to the Ottawa River and its adjacent bike paths will be less obstructed this coming summer, following a flurry of tree cutting on the National Capital Commission land. The scorched skeletons of numerous ash trees killed in recent years by the emerald ash borer have been removed to make way for new plantings.

Warmer weather and receding snow have revealed the extent of the work, which began over the winter months. A total of 600 dead ash trees are planned to be removed from the parkway and Fisher Park areas.

Maintenance quick tips for safety on the roads Travel safely by ensuring your vehicle is properly maintained Lifestyle - As the snow melts and the spring weather approaches, millions of Canadians will be hitting the open road with their windows down and radios turned up. But before they head out for that weekend getaway or warm weather drive, now is the time to give the car a complete inspection to help prevent any

problems that might arise on the road.

Below are a few tips that will help keep your vehicle rolling toward your spring road trip destination: Check Fluids – Think about your engine oil, transmission fluid and power steering fluid. These fluids affect the performance of your vehicle, and poor

performance has a direct correlation to wasted fuel. Every vehicle is different, but pay attention to your owner’s manual. It will dictate what is best for your car to maximize engine life.

Watch Tire Pressure as Temperatures Change. Proper tire inflation is essential for automotive safety, optimum

driving performance, and significant cost savings, including better fuel mileage. Tires should be inflated to the manufacturer’s recommendations printed on the driver’s side door placard or in the owner’s manual. Properly inflated tires can maximize tire life and even improve fuel efficiency by 3.3 per cent for most drivers.

Change Your Car’s Shoes – Now is the time to change tires from winter to

summer or all-season, if you haven’t already.

You Can’t Avoid What You Don’t See – About 90 per cent of all driving decisions are made based upon vision.

When your windshield wiper blades are dirty, clean them with rubbing alcohol; if you see no difference, they may be damaged beyond cleaning. Replace them if they are cracked, torn, cut or streaking so you can see clearly.

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

A weekly guide in legal matters

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

Financial disclosure for separating spouses If you have made the decision to separate from your spouse, some of the most difficult issues to resolve can be related to money. Full financial disclosure between the spouses is critical, so that each person has a clear picture the finances on the date of separation and the date of marriage. Child support, spousal support, and division of family property all require proper financial disclosure.

Financial disclosure of annual income is necessary in order to establish the correct child support payment, which is generally determined solely based on the number of children and the income of the paying parent. Annual income is also an important factor in establishing possible spousal support entitlement.

West Ottawa Ladies Chorus PRESENTS ANNUAL SPRING CONCERT

‘SWEET SERENADE A DESSERT MUSICALE’

Each spouse will need to show the jointly- and solelyheld assets and liabilities, as well as any property that might be excluded from the calculation, on both the date of separation and date of marriage in order to determine how the family’s assets will be divided.

Detailed financial disclosure, including a sworn financial statement, forms part of the documentation required by the court if you chose to start a court process, or if you need to respond to one. Even if you and your spouse intend to resolve your separation outside of the courts, the same detailed financial disclosure is required.

If you do not provide the necessary financial information, your spouse may be able to challenge any agreements you have reached based on that non-disclosure, which creates uncertainty for both parties, and very likely significantly increased legal costs in the future.

Understanding your disclosure obligations and preparing full and accurate financial statements can be challenging.

A family law lawyer can provide you with information and advice you need to meet your obligations, which will form the foundation of a solid resolution to your separation.

Girl’s microwave fixation inspires book for kids with autism Adam Kveton

adam.kveton@metroland.com

Teaching a young child to share can be a difficult task for any parent, but when it came to Lisa Lutes’ five-yearold daughter, Sera, Lutes was at a loss for what to do.

But it wasn’t sharing toys, books or stuffed animals that Sera was having a particular problem with, said Lutes. It was letting others use the microwave.

“She felt like she was this expert,” said Lutes. “So she pressed the buttons every time anyone made anything.”

Sera – who has autism – would even push past her parents to get to the microwave if she thought they were about to use it, she said.

And if anyone else succeeded in using the appliance, a piercing yell would soon follow, said Lutes.

“She would scream and scream and scream,” she said.

The Glen Cairn family knew they had to do something, but unsure just what to do, they asked Sera’s teacher for some advice.

With some paper and marker, Sera’s teacher began drawing some simple pictures, said Lutes – things like a screaming face with an X through it to show “We do not scream when someone else touches the microwave.”

A little surprised, the Lutes realized the drawings helped Sera see what she was doing.

“It really helped,” said Lutes.

It also gave them an idea.

“We were just thinking, ‘Well wouldn’t it be cool if we made it into a real book and personalize (the story) a bit and make it funny,’” said Lutes.

So, Lutes, along with her husband, Jay, an illustrator and kids author, got to work on Sera’s story: Don’t Push The Buttons On The Microwave.

After a year of work, the book was launched in late March.

Written by Lutes and illustrated by her husband, they think it will be a unique offering directed at kids with autism.

While there are plenty of resources for parents of kids with autism, as well as basic instructional books for children with autism, there aren’t many stories for the kids to enjoy and learn from that are about them, said Lutes.

For Sera, who is almost exclusively a visual learner, reading about herself and seeing how she and others react to different situations in drawings has been a huge help, said Lutes, and hopefully it can do the same for other children.

“We are hoping it will help them get a perspective on other people’s feelings about

Adam Kveton/Metroland

Glen Cairn resident and first time author Lisa Lutes shows her first children’s book, written for kids with autism, called Don’t Push The Buttons On The Microwave. the situations that they are putting them in,” she said.

“It’s not just them being upset about the microwave. It affects the whole family in all these situations. We want some sort of teaching aid to show them this is how everyone else feels when you do this.”

Going beyond just an aid, the stories also help to bring

out the humour in the situation, said Lutes, who hopes kids genuinely enjoy stories that are about and for them.

She hopes to write a series of books about common fixations and hang-ups that children with autism have, and already has ideas for books about loud toilet flushes, obsessions about trains and more.

A book launch party will take place at the Beaverbrook branch of the Ottawa Public Library on April 26 from 2 to 3:30 p.m., said Lutes, where families with autism can meet each other, try some activities and learn about the book.

Piano, brass and vocals headed for Barrhaven Megan DeLaire

mdelaire@metroland.com

The sounds of piano, brass and vocals will resonate through Barrhaven United Church on April 11 as the third edition of its concert series takes to the stage.

Saturday’s concert will include performances by pianist Armas Maiste, the Manotick Brass Ensemble and Group Therapy: a Capital Chordettes barbershop quartet.

This spring marks the series’ second anniversary. The series presents two concerts each year, one each in the spring and fall.

While this most recent concert will be Maiste’s third with the series, as well as a repeat appearance for the Manotick Brass Ensemble, volunteer associate minister Dianne Cardin said Group Therapy are a new edition.

“It’s kind of a mix of familiar and new artists,” Cardin said.

Maiste, 86, was the featured act for the series’ first concert

in 2013, which was organized shortly after the church raised the funds to purchase a grand piano.“That’s when Armas did his first concert,” Cardin said. “He really introduced the series.”

Armas is a classical and jazz pianist with more years of experience playing than there are white keys on a piano. And there are 55 white keys on a piano.

During those years he has performed with the Montreal Symphony Orchestra and Les Grands Ballets Canadiens of Montreal, as well as teaching at McGill University and Humber College.

Maiste said it was the new piano which initially attracted him to play at the church, but it’s the acoustic quality of the venue that brings him back repeatedly.

“The piano is of really good quality. It’s good to play on, it’s really responsive,” Maiste said. “And the hall is big, and the sound is very even throughout the building. So there are many

The venue’s acoustics will also carry the trumpet, trombone, tuba and French horn blasts and flourishes of the four-person Manotick Brass Ensemble, and the four-part barbershop harmonies of Group Therapy when those groups perform Saturday night.

The concert is just one of about 60 that Manotick Brass Ensemble play annually across Ontario, according to Cardin, in addition to international performances.

Tickets will be sold at the door for $22 for adults and $12 for students. Proceeds from ticket sales will go to the church and its outreach ministry.

COPD costs lives Lifestyle - Unfortunately, the feeling of breathlessness is all too common for individu-

als living with Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD); a progressive dis-

ease that causes lung damage and ‘blocks’ the airways making it difficult for a person to breathe.

The Canadian Thoracic Society’s COPD guidelines have five simple questions that can help at-risk Canadians deter-

mine if they should speak with a healthcare professional about COPD. • Do you cough regularly?

• Do you cough up phlegm regularly?

• Do even simple chores make you short of breath?

Active living in retirement residences It’s no surprise that people who exercise regularly tend to be in better health than those who don’t, with many studies demonstrating just how beneficial physical activity can be—especially for seniors. Given the vital role that physical activity plays in the health of seniors, it’s clear how important it is for older adults to stay active in their later years, as it could mean their prolonged good health and independence. Yet, according to Employment and Social Development Canada, levels of physical activity gradually decrease with age, with only 44% of adults aged 65+ considered even moderately active in Canada.

“We support residents with their fitness goals by providing active living programming that is not only delivered in a relaxed and supportive atmosphere, but tailored to their abilities and preferences,” she says, “When new residents realize how easy and fun it is to get in their daily physical activity, they’re more inclined to participate.”

As Laura Forsyth, Director of Life Enrichment at Chartwell Retirement Residences, explains, organized classes offered by retirement communities provide seniors with a convenient way to exercise.

ADVERTORIAL

who are over 40 years of age and answer yes to any of the questions above should speak with their doctor about getting a test called spirometry to establish if they have COPD and begin appropriate management.

According to a study conducted by the University of Missouri, seniors living in retirement residences who reported more exercise experienced less physical decline than their peers who reported less exercise, demonstrating just how beneficial retirement living programming can be for a senior’s overall well-being.

At Chartwell Stonehaven, we believe that active living is a critical component of healthy aging. We make it easy for residents to remain physically active and socially engaged so they can enjoy happier, healthier and more vibrant lifestyles.

Our main residence and independent apartments offer a number of active living programs — such as yoga, balance and wellness classes, a walking club, our popular Rhythm N’ Moves class and our new intellectual FitMinds® program — and general recreational activities geared toward improving residents’ physical health.

There may be many reasons why seniors do not exercise regularly, challenges with health and mobility ranking high on that list; however, it’s never too late for seniors to participate in regular exercise, even if it’s from the comfort of a chair. One lifestyle change that studies show often prompt seniors to begin exercising again is a move to retirement living.

• Do you wheeze when you exert yourself when exercising, going up stairs, or at night?

• Do you get many colds, and do your colds usually last longer than your friends’ colds?

Brookfield High artistic talent lines city’s walls in new exhibit Erin McCracken erin.mccracken@metroland.com

At the sound of the end-of-class bell, the students would put down their paintbrushes, wood-burning tools, pencils and pencil crayons, only to head back to the art room at Brookfield High School every chance they got.

“Even when students were finished their artwork, they would come in for another week of lunch hours or after school and continue to rework what they were doing,” said art teacher Erin Cain.

Their hard work has translated into a public exhibit now open to the public at the City of Ottawa Archives, which features 56 works of art and is entitled Canada’s Chronicles: A Glimpse of the Past Through Modern Eyes.

It’s the third year the archives has featured a public art exhibit, all of which have so far displayed the talents of high school artists.

Cain jumped at the opportunity to have her students create a showcase even though it meant quickly developing new lesson plans last fall for all of her students in grades nine to 12.

“They did phenomenal,” she said, adding, in the end, the difficulty was in choosing which pieces to exhibit in the space, which couldn’t accommodate every artwork.

For that reason, the exhibit includes a slideshow of additional artworks, as well as the students while they were working on their art in class.

“We got a chance to do something that was not possible (before),” said Ladan Warsame, a Grade 12 student who spoke during the exhibit’s opening on March 31. “It made us go above and beyond our capabilities, and not just to see this as a school assignment but as a benefit that we can use later on.”

The 18-year-old used a wood-burning technique to depict Louis Riel’s face.

“He fought for people. He fought for his beliefs and what he believed was right,” Ladan said of the Métis leader.

In addition to further honing her artistic abilities, Ladan relished creating for a public audience.

“The students raised their own expectations,” said Cain. “You can definitely see it.”

Her Grade 12 students this semester also designed the layout of the exhibit, and even crafted a three-dimensional scale model of the space before they hung each piece ahead of opening night.

“It was pretty fun doing that,” said student Lay Tu, 18. “It looks really beautiful.”

And in the end, the students said their efforts were rewarded with a finished product that impressed their principal, teachers and their family mem-

ERIN MCCRACKEN/METROLAND

Brookfield High School art students in grades nine to 12, including Minh Nguyen, left, Yaxin Wang, Lay Tu, Megan Ferguson, Maryam Galehdar, Alex Varas and Ladan Warsame, have created artworks and curated a public art exhibit on display at the City of Ottawa Archives until April 14 under the guidance of their visual arts teacher, Erin Cain, right. bers during the public launch.

That night, Alex Varas’ mom posted photos of the exhibit and his watercolour painting of a B.C. landscape on Facebook, prompting both of his grandmothers to tell him how proud they are.

“It was a surprise to (have) them call and just compliment me on these things,” the 17-year-old Grade 11 student said.

Maryam Galehdar, 18, who aspires to one day become an architect, brought her aunt to the ceremony.

“She was really impressed,” said Maryam, who created two pieces for the exhibit. “She didn’t really want to go (at first) because she thought it would just be a high school thing, no big deal, and then I took her there and she was really impressed by the artwork.”

For the show, Megan Ferguson handcrafted a moose from kidney and black beans on canvas in the Algonquin and Métis-style, as well as a watercolour landscape painting textured with wax.

“It’s pretty cool knowing that like I’m 16 and I have two artworks actually in the art gallery,” said the Grade 11 student, who is considering becoming an art teacher or cartoonist in the future.

Minh Nguyen, 17, has two pieces in the exhibit, including a pencil-crayon drawing of a lobster, in keeping with the Grade 12 theme of Canadian food.

“Ms. Cain told us to have three sketches for each idea and for different angles of the lobster,” said Minh, who created a dark background in order to make the colours of the cooked lobster pop.

In addition to learning about the city’s archives, as well as Canadian history, culture and identity, there was also some taste-testing involved in the creative process.

“I was surprised by how many students had never tried a Nanaimo bar before,” Cain said.

Some students, including Megan, plan to revisit the exhibit to see their artwork on display before the final day on Tuesday, April 14.

For Alex, seeing his art on the walls of a public gallery has been worth all of the hard work and sacrificing his free time to produce something special.

“It was very unusual seeing it among all these other pieces,” he said of his painting. “I like the feeling of it being in the gallery and the feeling of me accomplishing something.”

The City of Ottawa Archives are located at 100 Tallwood Dr., near the corner of Woodroffe Avenue and Meadowlands Drive, and are open weekdays from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m., and Saturdays from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. For more about the archives, visit ottawa. ca/archives.

Canterbury garage sale expected to draw hundreds of treasure hunters Erin McCracken erin.mccracken@metroland.com

They call it gigantic for a reason.

Canterbury’s Gigantic Indoor Spring Garage Sale, which has been held annually since at least the early 1980s, is expected to once again draw between 700 and 900 people when it takes over the Canterbury Community Centre on Sunday, April 12, from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m.

When the 87 available tables first went up for grabs about a month ago, hopeful vendors lined up at the centre to ensure they would be able to showcase their goods at the popular event.

“They come here early ERIN MCCRACKEN/METROLAND John Marshall, president of the Canterbury Community Association, will be among the wanting to get it,” said John many volunteers at Canterbury’s Gigantic Indoor Spring Garage Sale at the Canterbury Marshall, president of the Community Centre on April 12.

“We have some of the same vendors who have been coming for decades.”

This year, organizers plan to keep track of how many patrons come to the sale.

association to improve its marketing of the event and ensure vendors and buyers are satisfied, Marshall said.

“In talking to people last year I do know they come from Kanata and Orléans and all around the city,” he added.

In large part, the sale is a way for the volunteer-based association to enhance the community, just as it does through its popular Breakfast with Santa and Christmas craft sale.

“It’s not to make money. It’s to build community.”

JOHN MARSHALL CANTERBURY COMMUNITY ASSOCIATION PRESIDENT

“The Christmas sale and the Breakfast with Santa, especially, you get a lot of people coming through the door that don’t normally get involved with things like that because there’s food, there’s stuff for the kids and Santa’s here,” Marshall said. “It’s not to make money. It’s to build community.”

The Venturers from the 101st Ottawa Scouts will be running a canteen during the sale.

During the event, most of the rooms at the centre, as well as the foyer, will fea-

ture a bevy of goods, ranging from preserves and homebaked goods to craft items and other treasures, such as antiques and other odds and ends.

“And then you’ll get the typical garage sale stuff,” Marshall said. “They’ll bring their inline skates, ice skates and hockey equipment, an old cell phone or Walkman – things like that.

“I imagine it’s one of those places where, if you’re a rare book person and you need things, you come to events like this.”

He too can’t help but browse the tables.

Last year he picked up pickled hot pepper preserves as well as a cast iron Transformer Optimus Prime figurine for his eight-year-old son.

Proceeds generated from the event, such as from table rentals, help the association contribute to several community initiatives, including post-secondary scholarships for graduating students at Hillcrest High School and Canterbury High School.

Admission to the gigantic garage sale is free. The Canterbury Community Centre is located at 2185 Arch St. Parking will be available in the centre’s lot and on nearby side streets. Motorists are advised not to use the parking lots of nearby elementary schools.

Chef represents Manotick at elite five-course cook-off Fundraising event to mark United Nations 70-year anniversary Emma Jackson emma.jackson@metroland.com

Main Street Cellar head chef Braden Parks will get to flex his culinary muscles this weekend as one of two chefs chosen to compete in a fundraising cook-off for the Group of 78 charity on April 12.

The non-profit organization is a foreign affairs advocacy group founded in the 1980s to promote peace and justice. Today its members are largely former politicians, diplomats and justice advocates who meet monthly to discuss current issues like the threat of terrorism, environmental concerns and international giving.

The fundraiser at the Arrow and Loon restaurant in the Glebe will support the group’s annual conference, which this September will focus on the United Nations’ 70th anniversary.

The chef competition is the brainchild of event co-ordinator Nindi Sarkar, who put a call out for local cooks earlier this year. She narrowed down a list of 14 through interviews and personal tastings; Parks served her his beef carpaccio and fried oysters.

Sarkar said she knew right away that the Main Street Cellar chef would be a perfect match to face off against parliamentary restaurant cook Justin Scott, who had already been accepted.

“Both chefs are young, they have a cooking style that is very unique to themselves,” she said. “I wanted to put out a very balanced competition of two peers that are competing against each other.”

Parks may only be 23, but the Maberly native already has a decade of cooking experience under his apron. He started his career as a dishwasher at an organic restaurant in his hometown, moving quickly to chopping veggies before getting plucked to the cook’s line to hone his culinary skills.

He attended St. Laurence College for a cooking apprenticeship, but didn’t finish – opting to work in his field, instead.

Parks joined the Main Street Cellar in Manotick last September and took over the kitchen in January. His menu is constantly evolving as he puts a modern, locally-sourced spin on traditional Canadian and Italian fare; the restaurant’s options range from duck confit with hand-made gnocchi to house-smoked chicken and fresh salmon.

On April 12, the two artists will prepare their five-course meals for 70 guests, but there’s a catch: neither will know the event’s secret ingredients until the day of the competition.

That morning, they’ll receive a list and have three hours to plan their menu around it. Event planners will shop on their behalf, and then the cooks will have from 5 to 7 p.m. to get ready for the dinner service.

Parks said he won’t overcomplicate his menu.

“I want to cook food that is simple, that everyone will like,” he said.

He’s pretty confident when it comes to Italian fare – he spent three months at an Italian cooking school last year – but there are a few genres that might force him to get creative.

“The only two I would find hard are Asian and Indian,” he said. “But I know the basics; I could come up with something.”

He’s not nervous – yet – but Main Street Cellar owner Kim Burns said she’ll be pleased whether Parks takes home the title or not.

“For me, he’s proven himself so far just by getting himself into the competition,” she said.

Of course, if he does win they’ll look at adding his creation to the menu. “If people love it, we have to have the award-winning dish,” she laughed.

Of course, having Parks on the roster will help put Manotick on the foodie map, she added.

“Being in Manotick, we struggle to be heard and seen,” Burns said.

Tickets for the contest are $65 each for 10 courses and dessert. They can be purchased at group78.org.

Main Street Cellar owner Kim Burns and her new head chef, 23-year-old Braden Parks, are thrilled Parks has been chosen to compete in an elite cook-off at a Group of 78 fundraiser on April 12.

Proposed post-secondary student residences on hold Project generated buzz in Riverside Park: councillor Erin McCracken erin.mccracken@metroland.com

Proposed plans to construct three post-secondary student rental apartment buildings on Brookfield Road are now on hold.

Montreal-based real estate development company Redfoxco had applied to the city for approval of a site plan to construct the first of three apartment buildings with ground-floor retail space at 770 Brookfield Rd. in the Riverside Park community, just west of Brookfield High School.

The full build-out of the complex called for 540 units that could accommodate between 1,200 and 1,500 student tenants. Redfoxco

RILEYBROCKINGTON.CA/SUBMITTED

A proposal by a Montreal-based real estate development company to construct three student rental apartment buildings at 770 Brookfield Rd. is now on hold. had hoped the first building would be built and ready for tenants for September 2016.

“The project as we know it is not proceeding. It appears

this is now off the table,” said River Ward Coun. Riley Brockington, who was informed March 26 by city planner Simon Deiaco that

The Canadian National Floorball team is looking for eligible players to tryout April 19 10am to 11:30am at the Quinte Sports and Wellness Centre to make a rooster of 40 players to play in the Canada Cup Floorball Championships May 16-18, 2015.

Eligible players - Women born prior to May 1, 1997 and up to May 1, 2001 (19-15 years of age)

48 Kanata Kourier-Standard - Thursday, April 9, 2015

the developer is not moving forward with the project at this time. Brockington said he was not told why nor provided with future timelines for the $60-million development.

Requests for comment from Deiaco and Redfoxco president Raffaele Freddi were not provided before press deadline.

Brockington said he is “not enamoured with what would have been a very dense site for post-secondary students.”

The residences – described during a previous interview

by Freddi as “comprehensive” and “very avant-garde – were to be marketed to university and college students.

The plans called for 24/7 security, an indoor gym, a central courtyard and underground parking.

Riverside Park Community and Recreation Association president David Hutchinson, who was surprised to learn the project has been paused, had some misgivings about the project as well as questions about who the tenants would be.

“I think that it’s prime land

and personally I would like to see the proposal designed as – just, up front, say that it’s regular rental properties or condos or something,” said Hutchinson.

“The longer it remains vacant the more risk there is that something less attractive would come along.”

DAVID HUTCHINSON, PRESIDENT, RIVERSIDE PARK COMMUNITY AND RECREATION ASSOCIATION

“One of the concerns I had about it was that it could turn out that a lot of it was filled with people who weren’t students who were basically doubling and tripling up because they didn’t have enough money to rent it themselves, and a building like that could support that kind of thing.”

At a Feb. 2 public open house, more than 50 residents were presented with two options for the first phase of the project: a six-storey 180-unit

building with a 16-metre setback between the rear of the building and the backyards of homes located south of the property, as well as an eightstorey option with a larger 27-metre setback.

The site is currently zoned for up to nine storeys.

Hutchinson said he got the sense at the meeting that residents favoured a taller building in exchange for a wider setback.

“I think the neighbourhood had come around to the idea that from a physical point of view it was going to be set back pretty well and it was going to block not very much sun,” he said. “It was a pretty reasonable accommodation from that point of view.”

Some at the meeting expressed enthusiasm for the development, including one resident who hoped the commercial space on the ground floor would attract service providers, such as doctors and dentists, back to the community.

Brockington expressed some disappointment “that for over a decade we’ve had nothing on that site that serves the Riverside Park community. So we recognize that we don’t have a lot of places, a lot of meeting places ... that at least the retail is aiming towards.”

The majority of people who sent comments about the Brookfield Road proposal to Brockington’s office were pleased the parcel of vacant land was to feature a higherend development.

“There was some interest in the community, some buzz going on,” he said.

When asked if Riverside Park is ready for such a large-scale development, Hutchinson said “the longer it remains vacant the more risk there is that something less attractive would come along.

“I don’t think it’s really avoidable,” the association president said.

ROSSS looks to extend supports, become ‘rural hub’ Survey, community forums seek feedback on service gaps emma.jackson@metroland.com

The Rural Ottawa South Support Services wants to broaden its clientele to serve more than just seniors and adults with disabilities, according to its executive director.

Mary Acton-Bond said the organization’s board of directors approved a new fiveyear strategic plan in December that centres on turning ROSSS into a support hub for all rural south residents.

Currently the organization mostly supports seniors and adults with disabilities.

ROSSS runs a Meals on Wheels program, regular outreach activities, preventative health clinics and transportation services for clients who would otherwise be stuck at home.

But Acton-Bond said rural services are so lacking across all areas that it makes sense to put ROSSS’s expertise to work to support other groups as well.

“We would like to be that door, that referral source, that connection point to put you in touch with the right people,” she said.

That will involve partnering with organizations that don’t

necessary have the resources to serve the rural population, be that legal aid, a mental health outreach program or a specific support group like the Acquired Brain Injury Association, for example.

“The urban organizations would like to have a presence in the rural area, but don’t have the capacity to take on the space,” Acton-Bond said.

“If we can say we have a desk open on Wednesdays for your counselling program, we can make that happen.”

While mental health support is the first gap to come to mind, Acton-Bond said ROSSS has lots of expertise in things like transportation services that can be used to help other populations – youth, for example.

“The rural teen has the same isolation issues as a senior, almost,” Acton-Bond said. “If we can help youth gain some independence, we would like to support that as well.”

To kick-start the transition, ROSSS is asking for community feedback through a short survey on the kinds of services needed in the rural south community.

“ROSSS is now ready to take the next step and is look-

ing for input from residents of Rural Ottawa South to ensure that this hub will meet the unique needs of our community,” Acton-Bond wrote in an introductory letter.

The survey asks for feedback on the types of barriers facing every group, from women to francophones to queer and transgender communities.

It also asks participants to list what they feel are the community’s greatest strengths when it comes to services offered.

The survey can be completed online at rosss.ca or in print at the head office in Manotick’s Dickinson Square.

It can also be printed off and mailed into the office.

ROSSS will also host three forums this spring: two small focus groups for volunteers and clients respectively, and a larger community forum on May 7 from 7 to 9 p.m.

The location has yet to be determined, but residents are encouraged to watch for details at rosss.ca.

To register for any of the three forums, call the ROSSS office at 613-692-4697.

Westboro residents want LRT trench buried Congratulations, condemnation in equal measure at public meeting emma.jackson@metroland.com

Westboro residents are digging in to reject plans for trenched light rail through their neighbourhood in favour of a fully-buried line between Dominion and Cleary stations.

The city held a public consultation at city hall on March 30 to discuss new plans for a 1.2-kilometre stretch of track that was subject to a 100-day negotiation period between city staff and the National Capital Commission this winter.

The city is studying three light-rail extensions east, west and south of the Confederation Line currently under construction, which would eventually add 19 more stations and 30 kilometres of track to the city’s transit network by 2023.

But last fall the NCC rejected the city’s plans for a section that runs near Rochester Field, on the grounds that the open trench design would block access to the Ottawa River and destroy local green space.

The two groups agreed to spend 100 days negotiating two options – one through Rochester Field and Byron Linear Park, and the other buried under Sir John. A. Macdonald Parkway.

On March 6 the working group announced its preferred plan will bury most of the line under a realigned parkway between the two stations.

Only one small section west of Dominion station would still be in an open trench, running below grade for about 200 metres before descending into an underground portal in time to cross the northern end of Rochester Field.

That stretch is a primary concern for some Westboro residents who live near the proposed track.

Jacques Vachon with LRT lobby group Underground Solution said it’s unfair that the city

managed to find enough money to address the rest of the NCC’s concerns, but couldn’t live without the estimated $20 million saved by not burying the Westboro section.

“It’s a substantial amount, but its $20 million on a billion,” he said.

“For two per cent more we can bury 25 per cent more.”

Cheryl Ford, who lives on Dominion Avenue, said she fully supports the LRT project but she wants it “to be done right.”

That means putting the trenched section underground to protect green space and save residents from excess light and noise pollution, overhead wires and unsightly infrastructure, she said.

“It won’t look like the pictures they show with people walking in green space,” Ford said.

But not everyone was upset with the compromise.

Wayne Mercer, who lives near Cleary station on the west end of the segment, congratulated planners “for coming up with such a great result.”

“It’s a compromise but it’s a better compromise than I could have envisioned,” Mercer said.

As part of the proposal, the parkway’s westbound lanes would shift further south, increasing usable shoreline space by 38 per cent and allowing for the development of a national waterfront park.

It would also add two new multi-use underpasses to increase access to the river and cut down on illegal parkway crossings.

While Mercer said he feels for his neighbours further east, overall the new plan is hugely improved.

“From a personal standpoint, I’m 98 per cent happy.

From the standpoint of the community and nature and my neighbours, I would like to see that 200 metres buried,” he said.

Kitchissippi Coun. Jeff

EMMA JACKSON/METROLAND

City planner Nelson Edwards explains plans for the city’s western LRT route to Westboro resident Cheryl Ford at a public consultation on March 30. Ford, who lives on Dominican Avenue, said she’d like a 200-metre trenched section near her house to be fully buried.

Leiper said it wouldn’t be impossible to bury the section if there was enough of a groundswell advocating for that – but it wouldn’t be easy, either.

“It’s going to be a challenge to find the money for it,” he said.

The true cost of putting that section underground is still unknown, Leiper added, so there would have to be extensive research and costing exercises done to see if the change would be financially feasible.

While cost savings can always be found, staff can also “hold bidders’ feet to the fire” during tendering to make sure it gets done inside council’s approved budget envelope of $980 million, he said.

But if all else failed and staff need more money to get it done, Leiper warned not to underestimate the cost-savvy attitude of council, which would ultimately have to approve any extra spending.

“It’s a small percentage increase, but council has been very budget-conscious,” he said.

Rockcliffe Park spring sale returns with more than 12,000 books Alex Robinson alex.robinson@metroland.com

Book collectors can expect more selection than ever before at this year’s spring book sale at the Rockcliffe Park Public Library.

A steady stream of donated books has flowed into the library in recent months, overwhelming the Rockcliffe Park Residents Association, which runs the annual sale.

“We’re getting more books than ever before. Something is going on here,” said Jane Dobell, who leads a team of more than 40 volunteers that put in months of work to plan and operate the event.

“The result for us is it’s an ex-

traordinary collection.”

The group has sifted through piles of donations, discarding books that are in poor condition and packing away the sellable ones in storage for the spring.

The sale, which raises money for the library, boasts more than 12,000 titles this year in a wide range of categories – from fiction of all types to reference books and beyond.

“We get whole libraries from heirs of people who have died who or from people who are moving or downsizing,” she said.

“People have been very generous. It’s amazing the variety of interest we’ve had.”

The sale is renting a tent this

The sale accepts cash only and will take place at the Rockcliffe Park Community Hall, at 380 Springfield Road, on April 11 from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. and on April 12 from 11 a.m. to 5 p.m.

Dobell said the annual sale is

year, as the event has outgrown the small space at the library. It has also expanded to include CDs, DVDs, videos and vinyl.

There are usually many rare gems sprinkled throughout the books on offer, Dobell said.

She recalled a time a few years ago when a colleague unknowingly priced an original edition of Jack Kerouac’s On the Road at $1.

The book can sell for more than $1,500.

“There are treasures,” she said.

“That’s the fun of it. It’s the serendipity of finding something.”

There have typically been around 100 people lined up to swarm the sale before it opens on the first day, but that should not deter people from coming later, Dobell said.

“We’re always putting more books up as more space becomes available,” she said.

“They don’t necessarily have to come the first day. They could come another day if they want to come leisurely. The 100 people lined up the first day are pretty eager.”

The sale was first launched in the 1990s by Barbara Mirsky, the librarian in charge of the Rock-

to the arrival of firefighters, said J.P. Trottier, Ottawa paramedic spokesman.

“He was semi-conscious when they arrived at (the) scene, so the potential for head injuries was great, plus any other trauma he may have suffered to the spinal column,” Trottier said of the cyclist who was not wearing a bicycle helmet at the time.

“He was showing clear signs of a concussion or neurological signs of a head injury. He had physical injuries as well – cuts, bruises – but I don’t know that he had suffered any fractures. Our paramedics did not suspect any fractures on him.”

Fire crews were initially called to the scene for a water rescue, but then quickly altered course to conduct a high-angle rescue since the man had fallen three to five metres down onto the ice of the near empty canal.

“The water is drained in that section,” said Rainboth.

Given the evolving nature of the rescue efforts, approximately 27 firefighters from upwards of five fire halls were called to the scene.

“We used our ropes and systems to bring the Stokes basket out of the canal,” Rainboth said, referring to the hard-shelled stretcher used.

The cyclist was pulled to safety and transported to the trauma centre at the Civic campus of the Ottawa Hospital.

Ottawa patrol officers are investigating the incident.

Teen boys face robbery charges “So it happens.”

The 15-year-old Caucasian male and 16-year-old black male, whose images were publicly released in the days following the Blossom Park bank robbery on March 11 at 7:15 p.m., eventually turned themselves in at police headquarters.

“We contacted them and suggested that was the way to go,” Haarbosch said, declining to provide specifics or how the teens were ultimately identified. Initially, investigators were on the lookout for a

Two boys, aged 15 and 16, may have been coerced by an older, more experienced person into allegedly robbing a Blossom Park bank, according to investigators.

“Whenever I kind of see somebody of that particular age group getting arrested for something as serious as this, it kind of crosses my mind that there’s a possibility that they have been put up to it, talked into it, coerced into doing (it)

by somebody older, more experienced,” said Staff Sgt. Michael Haarbosch, head of the Ottawa police robbery unit.

Police don’t typically see teens this young pulling off a bank robbery. Officers have, however, investigated cases in which Ottawa teens have been coerced into committing this type of crime.

“I can think of a major investigation a number of years ago where we had people recruiting people at high schools and in the colleges to do bank robberies,” Haarbosch said.

to police.

No one was injured in the incident.

Five days after the crime, police released a description and images of a second suspect, saying that bank video surveillance cameras caught a black male suspect on tape arriving with the first suspect.

They fled the scene together immediately afterward.

Charges against the pair were laid on March 30, includ-

Father’s love for the farm was obvious MARY COOK Memories and often I saw him move them from one place to another just to keep them on drier land.

As I came out of the the lane, I could see patches of snow still here and there on the TwentyAcre Field that separated our farm from the Thoms’s house.

It would have to be completely

way home from school, I knew there would be other changes too around the farm.

Father would be pleased that the barnyard had cleared of snow, and the cows could graze on dry land. He would never tolerate any of the farm animals wallowing around in mud,

dry before the planting.

I neared the swing gate and then I saw Father. He was leaning on the fence that circled the barnyard – most unusual for him at that time of day. He was wearing what we called his “between winter and summer” hat.

It was more of a cap, with lugs that he didn’t bother to tuck up, but just let them dangle around his ears like flapping wings.

Father waved at me and I waved back and when I got within a few yards from him he told me to leave my school bag near the gate as he had something to show me in the barn.

Goose eggs, maybe? Or a new litter of kittens that appeared as regular as clockwork?

he snow was gone from our long lane, and it had settled into deep ruts of mud which wouldn’t completely dry up into the early summer.

Thick bush on either side of the lane stopped the sun, and it was one of the last places on the farm to give up the snows of winter.

Walking home from the Northcote School that time of year, we had to walk down the centre of the lane to miss the mud in the deep ruts.

That day I could smell a difference in the air. Mud had a special smell to me, one I wasn’t particularly fond of. But I knew it was also the smell of spring, one of my favourite times of the year. And so, that day on the

Managing diabetes at nighttime Lifestyle - What’s usually on your mind before you fall asleep?

Rather than reflecting on their day or thinking about tomorrow’s tasks, Canadians with diabetes who take insulin, getting ready for a good night’s sleep can be a challenge because every night they must prepare their bodies to rest without food or insulin intake for a prolonged period of time.

Without the proper balance of insulin before bed, they can experience nocturnal hypoglycemia. Hypoglycemia occurs when blood sugar (or glucose) levels drop. It can cause confusion, loss of consciousness and even result in death.

“Testing blood sugar throughout the day is necessary to maintain a constant healthy blood sugar level, but during sleep hours, it is difficult to test. For people living with diabetes, nocturnal hypoglycemia can be daunting,” said Dr. Woo, endocrinologist, Health Sciences Centre.

According to a recent survey of diabetes patients and their healthcare providers revealed that: • More Canadian patients worry about experiencing a hypoglycemic event at night than during the day (34 per cent).

• The most common reasons for mis-timing or reducing doses were low blood sugar levels and attempting to reduce the risk of having a hypoglycemic event.

• Patients are also losing sleep over the guilt they feel with missed dosing, as six in ten Canadian patients surveyed said they worry about missing the occasional insulin dose, and seven in ten feel guilty when they do.

• The good news is that it is never too late to take action to prevent or manage hypoglycemia. Here are three tips to prevent nocturnal hypoglycemia: • Test blood sugar levels before bed.

• If the test shows low blood sugar levels, some recommendations for leveling out glucose levels include: bedtime snacks such as 15grams of carbohydrates or a glucose tablet, a glass of milk or a glass of orange juice.

• Talk to your healthcare professionals to learn how to identify and reduce the risk of nighttime hypoglycemia.

Patients should talk to their doctor about new insulin therapy options to help manage nocturnal hypoglycemia.

Birth of lambs awed Mary

And there in the corner of that small stall was one of our ewes, and beside her two newly born lambs, their wool still damp from their birth. so softly I could barely make out what he was saying, and I could hear a wonder in his voice. And there in the corner of that small stall was one of our ewes, and beside her two newly born lambs, their wool still damp from their birth. One was wobbling on legs that looked like little white sticks, and the other curled up beside its mother, two tiny bundles of white fluff.

We leaned into the stall for the longest time, saying nothing. The mother sheep was eyeing us, and the two little lambs, fresh from birth, trying to find their place in this new world they had been born into. I realized Father was still holding my hand.

We came out of the barn, and Father said, “Better go to the house.

Mother will be looking for you.” I walked ever so slowly to the back door, thinking about what I had just seen, and even though I was very young, I knew again why my father so loved his farm. Why every inch, first settled three generations before him, would always be his haven.

I remember, as if it were yesterday, looking up to the sky that day

But no, Father wouldn’t be excited enough about either to meet me at the gate.

He took me by the hand, as if I didn’t know where the barn was. I felt the warmth and the roughness of a hand that had only known hard work and long hours, but I felt a comfort too.

He took me to the farthest end of the barn, past the stalls of where the cows were kept, and into the darkest crevices of the barn at the very south end, never letting go of my hand.

I could smell the fresh hay that had been mounded in the corner, thrown down from the hayloft above. Father said nothing, just leaned over the low stall boards, and let me adjust my eyes to the darkness, and then I saw what Father had taken me into the barn for.

“Would you look at that,” he said

and thanking whoever, or whatever was up there looking down at us, and saying my childish thanks for all that was around me. The Depression, indeed, was in some other country.

Kids just love to dance!

When your kids just â&#x20AC;&#x153;Gotta Danceâ&#x20AC;?; look no further than the City of Ottawa Recreation eGuide available online at ottawa.ca. Our great variety of classes and activities will keep their toes tapping and their body rocking.

Dancing is great exercise for kids of all ages. Younger children will experience a fun introduction to physical fitness as well as developing many key skills that will serve them throughout life. They will learn to follow instructions, and create an appreciation for different styles of music while enhancing coordination, balance, flexibility, strength, stamina, discipline and memory.

Through programs such as Music and Movement and Creative Movement, toddlers as young as three years can explore their natural response to music and rhythm while expanding their creative scope and gaining confidence in their abilities. These programs provide a fun and casual approach to practicing basic and fine motor skills and learning about body awareness and space.

Classes in pre-ballet, jazz and hip hop will teach your tiny dancer the fundamentals and techniques of specific dance styles. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a great introduction to more formal and focused dance classes. A performance for an admiring audience of moms, dads and family members completes the session.

Older children also have a variety of dance styles to choose from. Whatever strikes their fancy weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve got them covered - from Broadway, contemporary and hip hop. Our classes cover a gamut of styles made popular by television dance shows.

Do you have a child interested in learning a bit of everything? A Dance Mix and Gotta Dance class allows your child to create his or her own choreography and experiment with a variety performance styles.

Give your child the opportunity to express, move and create through dance. Our classes are affordable and many are conveniently located in your neighbourhood Apparently, Socrates learned to dance when he was 70 because he felt that an essential part of him had been neglected!

Preparation

I will pay $15 for the kettle

scoop or large spoons, scoop the batter into the prepared muffin pan, filling each cup about 3/4 full.

Bake in a 180 C (350 F) oven for 20 to 22 minutes, or until a tester inserted in the centre comes out clean. Let it cool in the pan on a baking rack for five minutes, then remove the cupcakes onto the rack and let them cool completely.

For the icing, beat the cream cheese and butter with an electric mixer in a medium bowl until it’s smooth. Beat in the jam, then add the icing sugar and milk, and beat until it’s very smooth. Spread the icing over the cooled cupcakes (or use a piping bag).

If you’d like, drizzle a bit of strawberry jam (thinned with a bit of water), over the icing.

CUNNINGHAM, LON

Peacefully at Hospice Renfrew on Wednesday morning, April 1st, 2015. Roland Elmer Clark of Arnprior passed away following a valiant struggle with cancer at the age of 90 years.

Dear son of the late Leslie Clark and the late Lora Ethlyn Mills.

Husband for over 68 years of Lorna (nee Saunders). Dearly loved father of Donna Alfano (late Carmen) and Wendy Grose (Harold), both of Arnprior. Dear brother of Donna Smith (late Ron) of Lanark. Brother-in-law of Donetta Watson (late Ron) and Lois Russett (Blyth), both of Arnprior. Predeceased by his only grandson, Jason Grose as well as siblings: Douglas, Leland, Eleanor Kasycz, Lois Johnson and Joyce O’Brien. Roland was born in Sutton, Quebec and grew up in Lac Megantic. At the age of 15, he hopped on his bicycle and travelled to Montreal where he lied about his age and enlisted into the Armed Forces for the first time. Five months later, his Dad finally caught up with him and had Roland discharged. At the age of 17, Roland enlisted into the Royal Canadian Navy and trained on the HMCS Saguenay in Halifax and later became a coder. Roland received honourable discharge in September of 1945. After the war, the grocery business became a way of life for Roland and Arnprior would become home. A short stint at Cliff’s Radio Repair a well as a stop at the Cabinet Factory in Arnprior also contributed to Roland’s earnings. If you knew Roland, you also knew that golf was his greatest passion. An avid player and longtime member of both the Arnprior Gold Club as well as the Madawaska Golf Course, Roland was a multiple championship winner at both courses. A graveside service at the Malloch Road Cemetery, Arnprior will take place in the intimacy of Roland’s family early this summer. In memory of Roland, a donation to Hospice Renfrew or the Arnprior Humane Society would be much appreciated.

It is with much heartache that our family announces the passing of Helen on April 1, 2015.

Born in Peterborough, Ontario April 13, 1926.

She will be greatly missed by her daughters Elinor O’Connor, Barbara Eamer (Dawson), Valerie Whyte (Everett), grandchildren Mark (Ruth), Tammy, Shannon (John), Heather (Richard), great grandchildren Eric, Finlay, Teagan, Tate, Seamus, Marshall & Emmett.

Helen was predeceased by her bothers Jim, Jack and Fred.

Helen worked at Island Lodge in Ottawa as an R.N.A. for almost 25 years. There is nothing she wouldn’t do for family and was invaluable as a grandmother. Helen was an incredibly hard worker but also loved a rye, dancing, and of course a good game of euchre. We cannot thank enough the wonderful staff at the Almonte Country Haven for taking such fantastic care of Helen, and her family, throughout her stay there and especially at the end.

Friends may visit the family at the Alan R. Barker Funeral Home, 19 McArthur Avenue, Carleton Place, on Saturday April 11, 2015 from 2 p.m. to 4 p.m.

For those who wish, a donation to the Heart and Stroke Foundation would be appreciated by the family. www.barkerfh.com

Hike! RedBlacks visit Orléans elementary school Brier Dodge brier.dodge@metroland.com

Students at Trillium Elementary School grooved alongside RedBlacks players and mascot Big Joe during a March 31 presentation.

The event was a part of the team’s Game Plan for Success school program.

During the school year, Ottawa Fury soccer players and Ottawa 67’s hockey players have also been participating in similar-themed programs in schools.

Students at Trillium were big fans of players Jamill Smith and James Green’s energy as the two players danced with students and goofed around with Big Joe throughout the presentation. Students lined up, eager for autographs from the two professional football players once the assembly finished.

The presentation was hosted by Mark Sluban, who works with the RedBlacks. He talked to students about never giving up, teamwork and set-

ting goals.

“A player wants to put the puck in the net, but we have all types of goals,” Sluban told the students. “Maybe some of you want to do better on the next math test.”

Both Smith and Green answered questions from Sluban about their childhood and how they made it to the ranks of professional football players.

Green only started playing football when he was 17 years old and a senior in high school.

He played for several schools, and graduated from the University of Calgary.

“I was playing basketball and everyone was telling me I was too small, so I figured I’d try something new,” Green told students. “I had to work very, very hard.”

Smith started playing football when he was very young, despite living in a basketballcrazy town in Indiana. He said he grew up with a chip on his shoulder because of small stature.

“We think of these giant

different shapes; all types of people can play.”

Smith went on to play foot-

ball at Ball State in Indiana and is now a member of the RedBlacks team.

“Just never stop trying, and keep your mind on your priorities,” he told the students.
