Murray backs unconventional cancer treatment Former Sens GM launches fundraiser Adam Kveton

adam.kveton@metroland.com

It’s massages, it’s acupuncture, it’s naturopathic medicine, special diets, yoga and more. And when used alongside chemotherapy, it works.

That was the message from both former Ottawa Senators general manager Bryan Murray and CBCTV news anchor Lucy van Oldenbarneveld. Both are cancer patients and both See $1 M, page 2

Join the fight Pranay Agrawal, 7, of Kanata and Gov. Gen. David Johnston mark the launch of Daffodil Month by spending the morning in the Rideau Hall greenhouse on April 5. Pranay was diagnosed with T-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (T-ALL) in October 2014. Due to his treatments, Pranay missed a full year of school but is now back in Grade 2 at Jack Donohue Public School in Kanata. Durring Daffodil Month, Canadians are encouraged to join the fight against cancer by purchasing a yellow daffodil pin as well as fresh daffodils. By wearing a pin, Canadians can show their support for people such as Pranay who are living with cancer. Money raised during the month helps fund essential support services, life-saving research and projects.

use the Ottawa Integrative Cancer Centre’s services.

They spoke at the Canadian Tire Centre on April 6 to announce the cancer centre’s first major fundraising campaign, called Changing How We Live With Cancer.

The OICC is looking for $5 million for research, specialized patient programs and to subsidize its services.

After one of his daughters convinced an admittedly sceptical Murray to try the centre, he is now convinced that the centre’s methods work, he said. Now, Murray wants to help make the OICC’s methods available to more people.

The not-for-profit cancer centre uses things like naturopathic medicine, yoga, acupuncture, special diets and even hypnosis to compliment regular cancer treatment.

Its aim is to support people physically, mentally and emotionally through cancer-

Former Ottawa Senators general manager Bryan Murray discusses his experience with cancer thus far, and the help he has received through the Ottawa Integrative Cancer Centre during the launch of a $5-million Changing How We Live With Cancer campaign at the Canadian Tire Centre on April 6. treatment, reduce side effects, improve quality of life and help prevent the recurrence of cancer.

Though it may seem odd to some, more than half of people living with cancer seek out complimentary medicine, said the OICC. Both Murray and van Oldenbarneveld provided a look into their mindsets as cancer patients and why they and many others look for whatever help they can get.

“There were no signs of cancer,” said Murray.

He had always been a fairly healthy man, he said, but not getting a colonoscopy allowed his cancer to go undiagnosed.

So his cancer spread to his liver and lungs, he said. The prognosis wasn’t good.

About five per cent of people at this stage live for five years, said Murray.

“It’s shocking,” he said. “It’s frustrating, it’s maddening, it’s every negative emotion you could ever have.”

Campaign for research, patient subsidies Continued from page 2

One of Murray’s daughters later convinced him to try the OICC. Despite being sceptical, he went and was told that one of the things he had to do was yoga.

“I had never done yoga in my life,” he said. “I thought it was a girl’s thing.”

Nonetheless he tried it, found it difficult and kept trying.

Now he credits his work at the OICC with keeping him healthy enough to work and live a normal life.

During his time at a regular cancer clinic, he’s met many others who could benefit from the OICC.

“Many of them are much younger than I,” he said.

But when he’s suggested it, they said they could not afford it.

Some OICC services are covered by OHIP, some are covered under third-party insurance plans, and others aren’t covered at all, said the OICC’s website.

Part of the $5-million campaign – and the big push from Murray – is to subsidize the care the OICC offers, to make it more affordable for more people. “I am proud to take on the role of honourary chair for the OICC’s first major fundraising campaign,” he said.

He also announced that

the Ottawa Senators Foundation and the National Hockey League Foundation jointly donated $100,000 towards the campaign.

President of the Sens foundation, Danielle Robinson, called cancer “hockey’s most important fight.”

Along with an anonymous donation of $900,000 from another foundation, the campaign has already reached $1 million.

While Dr. Dugald Seely, the founder of the OICC, the CEO of the Canadian College of Naturopathic Medicine and others emphasized the need for research to prove what alternative medicines and techniques work with

which cancer treatments.

Van Oldenbarneveld recalled the two times she has been to a hypnotherapist through the OICC. The first time, it was to come to terms with chemo.

“I was terrified of what it would do to me,” she said.

But the hypnotherapist helped her reframe her feelings towards the treatment.

It was no longer a toxic destroyer but a bright light that would go in and get rid of her cancer.

The second time, van Oldenbarneveld went because her veins had collapsed, making it impossible to get a needle in.

So with the hypnotherapist, they “talked to” her veins, and

quires more than just surgery, chemotherapy and radiation.

For me, it also meant dealing with the emotional fallout, and the physical recovery from each round of treatment. The OICC has been there to help guide the way.”

incredibly they opened up, she said, admitting that it sounds nuts, but it worked.

“The OICC has been a lighthouse in the storm for me,” she said. “Trying to figure how to manage a diagnosis like breast cancer is something that re-

Karen McCrimmon Serving Constituents of Kanata-Carleton

Member of Parliament Kanata-Carleton

I want to thank everyone for their kind notes and messages this week. Your support was very much appreciated.

Veterans Advisory Groups For two days this week I had the rewarding experience of working with great Canadians, representing various Veterans’ groups, who are working together to bring real change for our Veterans. The work is underway and updates will be shared in the near future.

School Visits - Jack Donohue Public School It was great to have had the chance to meet and chat with the students from Jack Donohue Public School.

It always energizes me to have the chance to engage our youth. I am always happy to visit local schools to speak with students or meet with local classes when they visit Parliament.

Canadian Aviation and Space Museum I had the pleasure of representing the Minister of National Defence at the Canadian Aviation and Space Museum this week for the arrival of a CC-130 Hercules aircraft. This particular ‘Herc’, one of the work horses of the Royal Canadian Air Force for the past 51 years, is being donated to the Museum. Having flown many operational missions as a Navigator on the Hercules, amounting to almost 2,500 hours, I am so pleased that millions of Canadians will be able to visit the aircraft at the Museum.

April Householder – Electoral Reform My April householder will be delivered to your inbox in the coming weeks. You can go to: http://goo.gl/i0VEH8 for a sneak peak. In this householder you will find the advocacy I have been focusing on for Kanata-Carleton and all Canadians; from middle class families, our business community, to veterans, and our military members. There is also a chance for you to provide direct feedback on electoral reform and what you believe is critical for real change to occur. Your feedback is important to me and will allow me to incorporate your views in our government plans.

Town Hall – April 26 I will be hosting my next town hall on April 26 at the Kanata Recreational Complex located on 100 Charlie Rogers Place. It will take place from 7:00 pm – 9:00 pm.

I am looking forward to having a chance to have a conversation with our community members of Kanata-Carleton.

Working for and Representing Kanata-Carleton It is such an honour and privilege to serve as your Member of Parliament and I look forward to meeting and working with you all. Please feel free to contact our office at 613-592-3469 or by email at Karen.

McCrimmon@parl.gc.ca. Also, you can follow me on twitter @karenmccrimmon.

World-first light, sound show part of Ott. 2017 Tanya Molloy

tmolloy@metroland.com

There’s light in the dark.

As part of Ottawa 2017’s festivities, the city will have full access to the future Lyon street light rail station for three months, in order to host a world-first underground multimedia light and sound show, billed as Ghost Train.

“It’s going to be as close as you can get to a live sci-fi

show,” said Guy Laflamme, executive director of the Ottawa 2017 bureau that’s planning for Canada’s 150th birthday celebrations.

“You’ll see streams of light and ghost-like pictures of people.”

Laflamme said the show includes a holographic image, but not an exact replica, of the LRT train, and that the show will feel like an image passing by at high speed.

He says that people won’t

just see the show, they will feel it too.

The old Place de Ville theatre – connected to the Lyon Street station – will serve as the starting point for visitors.

From there, they will be able to travel down into the station for the show.

Free, timed tickets will available and each show will last between 20 and 30 minutes.

“When I first came up with the concept, I had

great support from the city,” said Laflamme. “I believe that it will become a powerful tourism tool, and that it’s going to show how edgy and creative Ottawa really is.”

The show is to take place when the construction of the station will be almost complete, in order not to shut down any subterranean digging. The hope is that the project will attract at least 300,000 people to the depths of the city.

“This is a great opportunity to showcase Ottawa 2017 in a fun way,” said Mayor Jim Watson.

However, the cost of the project is projected to be between $3 million and $4 million, and will be funded by private partners and all three levels of government.

Montreal-based group Moment Factory will put in place the multimedia aspects of the show.

Laflamme added that the equipment used to create the show will be mostly Canadian and Ontario sourced, and that some of the equipment will be permanently installed at other LRT stations in the future.

It’s been about two weeks since a Kanata toy store had its 1.3-metre tall Playmobil firefighter stolen.

The firefighter figure, which stood outside the doors of the shop for eight years, remains lost to store owner Patti Taggart as of April 9, despite numerous Facebook posts which have received much attention. It was taken from the front of the store on March 30.

The Facebook posts and concern also attracted the attention of Playmobil Canada, the makers of small figurines that live in different worlds, such as a knight’s castle, a tropical hotel and many others.

They also make 1.3-metre tall versions of their figures, including the stolen firefighter.

“We heard about this story and immediately wanted to help out,” said Richard Brookes, director of sales and marketing at Playmobil Canada.

On April 7, Playmobil presented Tag Along Toys, located just west of the Centrum shopping mall, with a new sentry to guard their store – a 1.3-metre tall knight.

“We are thrilled to be getting a new Playmobil knight to stand guard,” said Taggart. “We look forward to seeing all the happy faces who will come by to visit him and continue to take pictures outside the store.”

McCrimmon accepts MPP’s apology over ‘rude, inappropriate’ joke The annual Carp Fair Men’s Night yielded more than $14,000 to support those with cancer on March 24, but some highly questionable remarks came out of the otherwise positive event as well.

The West Carleton Review wrote a column on the incident without identifying who said what or what was said.

The Toronto Star has since revealed that Carleton-Mississippi Mills MPP Jack MacLaren was the source of crude humour aimed at Kanata-Carleton MP Karen McCrimmon and her husband.

His attempt at humour reportedly silenced and disgusted many in the crowd.

The joke, referencing McCrimmon and her husband’s sexual relationship, was

Kanata-Carleton MP Karen McCrimmon has received an emailed apology from Carleton-Mississippi Mills MPP Jack MacLaren almost two weeks after he made a sexual joke at her and her husband’s expense while addressing a Carp Fair Men’s Night crowd on March 24. made by MacLaren as he addressed the crowd at the men’s night after convincing McCrimmon to come up on stage, reported the Star.

The joke, apparently taken from a raunchy Irish joke about a husband “between the legs” of his wife, was met with no applause whatsoever, said a long-time Carp Fair board member to the Star.

But that’s not because it had no impact, said McCrimmon.

“They were mortified,” she said of the men’s night crowd.

“That was good to see,” said McCrimmon of the reaction. “I didn’t feel like I was wearing that on my own. They were all there with me.”

MP buoyed by response from Carp Fair Men’s Night attendees Continued from page 6

Response from the crowd continued thereafter, with McCrimmon saying she’s received dozens of apologies from attendees and organizers of the event.

“I really appreciate all the people who have reached out on Twitter, on Facebook, on email, phonecalls, at the constituency office. That to me was really heartening,” she said.

APOLOGY

Now, nearly two weeks later, McCrimmon said MacLaren has apologized.

That came in the form of an email sent to her on April 6, well after McCrimmon had confronted MacLaren face-to-face, saying, “I thought (his remark) was rude and inappropriate,” she said.

The email conveyed “sincere apologies” for comments made at the Carp Fair event, said a McCrimmon staffer.

The apology says the joke was a poor attempt at humour, that it went too far and left a mark on the true purpose of the event, said the staffer.

McCrimmon said she has accepted MacLaren’s apology. MacLaren’s of-

fice did not immediately respond to a request for comment.

“This is something that needs to be dealt with and I think we’ve dealt with it,” said McCrimmon of the episode.

Asked what this experience says of gender politics in Canada, McCrimmon said, “I think it’s getting better. I do.

When so many people recognize that this was inappropriate, that’s a good thing.”

However she acknowledged that it is a problem when a democratic representative is the only one in the room that doesn’t understand what is acceptable and what isn’t.

Regardless of what may come after MacLaren’s comments and the public’s response to them, McCrimmon said she hopes none of this reflects poorly on the Carp Fair.

She did add, however, that it is perhaps a time for people to reflect on who should represent them at the provincial level.

“They are going to have to decide if that’s the kind of person you want to involve in politics or not … people have a choice to make.”

TAXIS, LIMOUSINE & PRIVATE TRANSPORTATION REVIEW – Regulating Vehicles-for-hire in the City of Ottawa – A

Council Committee has recommended how to regulate Uber (and other companies) to Council. The Uber operation is in fact a taxi service, but does not follow all laws. Every bylaw charge by the City found the drivers of Uber guilty of breaking the law. However, many citizens found the service to be convenient and ignored the fact that it was illegal.

Times are changing with technology and this is one example of a service that does not fit the rules. Taxis have been heavily regulated and taxi drivers have been following the bylaws, which cost them a lot, putting them at a disadvantage to Uber drivers. I support the recommended changes, but feel the rules don’t go far enough to level the playing field between taxi and Uber drivers. So, I will seek some additional conditions so that taxi drivers will not be driven out of a legal business where they have followed the law for many years by a company that supported drivers who broke every law on vehicles-for-hire in Ottawa.

OC TRANSPO – University and college students voted to support a summer U-Pass Program, so full-time students during the summer term will now have a U-Pass. Some route changes start on April 24th so check your travel routes on April 25th for changes to commuter runs. The 182 will now serve the eastern part of Terry Fox, the 188 is cancelled and other times of some routes will vary.

Taking a toll on everyone

T

olls on Ottawa roads or highways are now part of the conversation at city hall. The transportation committee has voted to have a report completed, and tolls will be one possibility.

That any possible toll is many years or even a decade away is the only good news.

The city needs more money for roads, goes one argument, and driver-related charges don’t pay all the costs associated with their upkeep. But non-drivers also benefit from roads; they buy the same goods as everyone else and those arrive on trucks. And those trucks arguably put more wear and tear on roadways than passenger vehicles.

Even if we share the cost of travel more equitably, council needs a sense of scale. Tolls around the centre core may make sense in London, England, but not London, Ontario. Not Ottawa, Ontario, either.

Tolls will no doubt deter travel; another nail in the coffin of downtown businesses already being squeezed by the massive free parking lots at shopping malls in Barrhaven and Kanata.

Few would argue that a new highway – maybe a ring road around the city – could come with a user fee. But it’s beyond galling to ask drivers to pay for roads through their taxes, and then turn around and charge them to drive on those same streets.

We’re currently investing billions of dollars in light rail. If the eventual LRT system in the city encourages people to leave their cars at home, that’s good. That will be a sign of success.

We don’t need to deter people from driving on publicly funded roads. Since there’s no practical way to add lanes to Highway 417 or build a new highway into the core (thankfully), traffic volume will act as all the deterrent we need.

And if the word toll raises its ugly head at city hall, councillors should be asked to tackle the obvious untapped revenue source presented by all the bridges across the Ottawa River. Every day, thousands of drivers who have paid nothing towards this city’s street maintenance cause wear and tear on our pavement as they zip in and out of our city.

The perks of coffee shops

W

ell, the sky didn’t fall when Bridgehead began serving wine a year or so ago, so maybe we shouldn’t worry too much about Starbucks doing the same.

The coffee house empire announced it would begin serving wines and craft beers in some Toronto locations, with plans to expand to other parts of Canada.

There hasn’t been much of an outcry over it, one way or the other, perhaps because there are more important things to worry about. Still, it would be nice in some ways if the experiment didn’t work. The growth of coffee culture has been a positive thing in North America and you’d hate to see that jeopardized.

CHARLES GORDON Funny Town useful concepts we have taken from Europe in the last couple of decades. What a good idea it is to stop whatever we are doing to sit down somewhere and have a coffee with other people around, particularly in a society where people spend too much time rushing around, too much time by themselves, staring at computers or phones.

One thing you notice in European cities is the absence of people walking down the street with takeout coffee cups in their hands.

That’s because the people are inside a coffee house, sitting down and relaxing with others. That’s a good thing, and it was a good thing that Starbucks, followed by other national and local chains, brought it to North America.

Of course, the importation was not perfect. In North America we had to add the blight of the drive-thru, which undercuts the whole idea. And North America also contributed the laptop guy, who parks at a prime table for hours at a time. But overall, the coffee house has worked in North America, made life a little nicer.

The vibe in the coffee house is different from that of a bar or tavern. It might be better for some, worse for others, but the point is that it’s different, more relaxed, more low-key, and many people DISTRIBUTION INQUIRIES Graham Bragger 613-221-6208 ADMINISTRATION: Donna Therien 613-221-6233 HOME BUILDERS ACCOUNTS SPECIALIST Geoff Hamilton - 221-6215 DISPLAY ADVERTISING: Gisele Godin - Kanata - 221-6214 Randy Olmstead- Ottawa West - 221-6209 Cindy Gilbert - Ottawa South - 221-6211 Carly McGhie - Ottawa East - 221-6154 Jill Martin - Nepean - 221-6221 Mike Stoodley - Stittsville - 221-6231 Annie Davis - Ottawa West - 221-6217 Rico Corsi - Automotive Consultant - 221-6224 Blair Kirkpatrick - Orleans - 221-6216 CLASSIFIED ADVERTISING SALES: Sharon Russell - 613-221-6228

like that. That could go if the coffee house starts acting like a wine bar.

For one thing, it will make things awkward, at the least, for under-age students. After the disappearance of the malt shop, where Archie and Jughead, Betty and Veronica used to hang out, teens have needed a gathering place and the coffee house has been that for some. That changes if the trend toward wine and beer in coffee house accelerates.

It is sometimes difficult to understand why businesses that prosper by doing one thing well invariably decide that they need to do other things too. Fast food chains aspire to fine dining. Grocery stores sell bicycles. Hardware stores begin selling groceries. So do drugstores. Bookstores sell candles.

Wal-Mart becomes a bookseller.

Everything becomes the same.

Which is why the coffee culture has been so refreshing.

yelling and the music isn’t loud. The coffee house is not like other places.

Why can’t it stay that way?

Bringing wine to the coffee house may be a sign that the coffee chains are not making as much money as they want just selling coffee and snacks.

Maybe there are others ways to do that. How about making laptop guy pay rent?

Raise your hand. Time to volunteer

S

omewhere in a church basement on any given night of the week, a group of people are holding up the fabric of society. They are volunteers. They are holding committees, raising money, feeding the homeless. They are organizing rides for seniors, settling refugees, administering cooperative community programs such as childcare and meal deliveries. They are coaching your daughter’s hockey team, building better business environments in your community and collecting clothing or money for diabetes and heart disease.

It’s easy to take for granted the contribution made by volunteers. It’s desperately easy to presume that “someone else will look after it,” or “the government has or should have us covered.” The reality is that, in 2013, volunteerism accounted for two billion hours of work, the equivalent of one million full-time jobs. And make no mistake, we are relying on older people to govern and organize many of the services we rely on.

It’s encouraging that 44 per cent of Canadians spent some time volunteering in 2013. But, mirroring the population, generally, volunteers are getting older.

“In 2013, 28% of all Canadian volunteers were aged 55 and older, compared with 26% in 2010, 24% in 2007 and 23% in 2004,” reported Statistics Canada in January.

BRYNNA LESLIE Capital Muse The older cohort of volunteers are more likely to do certain activities. Fortytwo per cent of volunteers over 55, for example, sat on a committee in 2013, compared with just over one third of those aged 35 to 54.

Recently, I was invited to speak as a guest at a committee of a group that has been settling an average of one to two refugee families per year for over two decades. They provided an update on the two families. One had reached the end of the 12-months of sponsorship, and the group was helping them make the transition to independence. The other had arrived mid-winter.

With a number of children, the first six weeks had been a flurry of appointments – school registrations, dental appointments, vaccinations, along with things like grocery shopping and filling of prescriptions.

At the meeting, they discussed how the group had been organizing everything from accounting and banking to acquiring official documentation, all things which take considerable hours outside of the monthly committee meetings. I listened to them give an account of those

early settlement weeks and I was admittedly shocked to realize that the same people overseeing the committee, soliciting fundraising dollars and reporting back to their donors and church communities, were the ones doing the ground work.

One woman had attended about six medical appointments with the refugee family within a few weeks. As a parent who’s spent a lot of time in dental and doctor offices for my own kids this year, just the thought of it exhausted me. Yet this woman seemed tireless as she plotted the next round of appointments and administrative tasks. She is in her sixties, like the majority of the people sitting around the table that night, and the work she undertakes is more than a full-time job.

It’s encouraging that so many of us volunteer.

Canadians who volunteer put in an average of 154 hours per year. Although some may argue that retired Canadians have more time to devote to the services and charitable groups that fill the gaps in government services, it’s my hope that younger generations will step up and step in to fill the shoes of the dedicated older generation.

City of Ottawa Notice of Proposed Official Plan Amendments Kanata North Community Design Plan In accordance with Section 22(6.4)(a) of the Planning Act and Section 11.(1) of Ontario Regulation 543/06, notice is hereby provided that an official plan amendment proposal is being considered by the Planning and Growth Management Department at the City of Ottawa.

The proposed Official Plan Amendment (OPA) affect properties located in Ward 5, West Carleton-March.

The planning area for the OPA is the Kanata North Community Design Plan (CDP) limits, extending along both sides of March Road from the existing urban area of Kanata. It is generally bounded by Old Carp Road, Murphy Court, Nadia Lane and the rail corridor and excludes the existing subdivisions.

Three concurrent and integrated Class Environmental Assessment Studies/Master Plans were initiated: Transportation Master Plan (TMP) to provide the road network; Master Servicing Study (MSS) for water, storm drainage and sanitary; and an Environmental Management Plan (EMP) for the natural environment and select stormwater management components. These reports have been prepared in conjunction with the Community Design Plan (CDP). The CDP is being brought forward for approval by Planning Committee and Council at the same time as the proposed OPA. Approval of the CDP and subsequent development applications under the Planning Act will be supported by the TMP, MSS and EMP. The purpose of the OPA is to provide policies that implement the land use components of the Kanata North CDP. The main effects of the proposed OPA are to: (1) change the land use designation in Schedule B from Developing Community (Expansion Area) to General Urban Area; (2) designate the tributaries of Shirley’s Brook and significant woodlot as Urban Natural Features; (3) update various schedules to reflect the expansion of transportation facilities within the CDP area; (4) update various natural heritage system features; (5) refine the required mix of housing; and (6) implement policy with respect to a cost sharing agreement.

Knowledge is power. I encourage all of my constituents to visit my website, www.jackmaclarenmpp.com, to learn more about the services available to them, about upcoming community events, and important issues impacting Ontarians.

To review additional information and materials related to the proposed amendments, please contact the undersigned planner, go to Ottawa.ca/devapps and input the File Number D01-01-16-0007 in the “Search” criteria. The City of Ottawa would like to receive comments regarding the proposed amendments.

Please forward comments to the undersigned planner via mail, facsimile or email by May 11, 2016.

Comments received will be considered in the evaluation of the proposal.

I would also like to invite you to join me on social media. My Twitter handle is @jackmaclaren1 and you can find me on Facebook by searching “Jack MacLaren, MPP”.

If a person or public body does not make oral submissions at a public meeting (meeting date, time and location to be determined) or make written submissions to the City of Ottawa before the before the proposed official plan amendment is adopted and the proposed by-law is passed, the person or public body is not entitled to appeal the decision of the Council of the City of Ottawa to the Ontario Municipal Board.

Monday through Thursday and provide a vast array of activities for seniors.

My plan is to bring the London format of Huff’n’Puff to Ottawa in the Name of Huffing and Puffing Ottawa Seniors Fitness Association.

Huff’n’Puff Ottawa along with its city partners could bring about a significant change for seniors as well as bring in additional revenues to the city.

By allowing seniors the use of facilities that would otherwise be hardly used, it means a great amount of additional revenue is generated for use in other city programs. This additional revenue source could be used to sponsor youth in programs they could not otherwise afford.

I’m not looking to take over or compete with the existing city programs but merely to enhance them and offer seniors an organization tailored to meet their requirements at a cost which encourages them to “give it a try.”

London’s Huff’n’Puff members pay a mere $40 a year with an additional surcharge of $25 for those actives which involve the facilities for which rent is paid.

The keys are affordability, ease of access to programs, a friendly and inviting environment, no intimidation, getting seniors out in the community and giving them a great deal to look forward to.

It’s a win-win for, the city, seniors, disadvantaged youth and the community at large.

Let’s get this initiative started and bring a new spark into the life of seniors.

For more information and on how a successful program works please visit London’s Huff’n’Puff site at www.huffnpuffsfa.com.

I would love to see Seniors stepping out and embracing this venture.

Seniors count down to Far West Fun Fest ’16 Submitted

Submitted

Kanata Seniors Council’s own dynamic duo are up to it again with the launch of this year’s popular Far West Fun Fest.

The brochure also contains the registration sheet along with the waiver form.

“Once you’ve made your selection and signed the waiver form, please return it, along with your payment, in a sealed envelope either directly to the Kanata Seniors’ Centre front desk, or to your seniors residence,” says Tucker.

Your key to the two-week-long program carries a modest price tag of $25 and payment should be included with the completed registration form.

Cheques should be made out to the Kanata Seniors Council, “but we’re quite happy to take cash as well,” adds Tucker.

More than ever, this 2016 edition of the Kanata Seniors Council’s Far West Fun Fest promises to be a great way to finally shed those winter blahs and swing into spring.

Running from Thursday, May 12 to Thursday May 26, Kay Dubie and Liz Tucker, the council’s “dynamic duo” have put together two weeks of activities where the program signature is one of fun and friendship.

Started in 2011, Far West Fun Fest’s choice of activities changes slightly from year to year. Back by popular demand are such regulars as square dancing, bingo, a cookery demonstration, cribbage and euchre tournaments, miniputt, a darts and fish and chip evening at the Legion and, of course, a bus tour to enjoy the tulip festival to name just a few.

But slipped into this year’s program are such “newbies” as card making, how to make a mini cactus garden, a post lunch date with Elvis (who is, apparently, alive and well in Arnprior), a walk back through time at Pinhey’s Point, and an opportunity to burn some calories and catch some heat with a morning of Latin chair dancing.

This year’s Fun Fest kicks off at 9 a.m. on May 12 with a continental breakfast when participants are invited to wear their brightest spring colours.

Two weeks later, there’s another treat in store at this year’s closing luncheon when Colores Andinos, a MASC fiveperson group using more than 20 instruments to interpret original and traditional songs, will be the featured entertainment.

Brochures outlining detailed descriptions of events are available at the Kanata Seniors’ Centre desk in the front lobby. All activities have a ceiling on the number of spaces available and registration is strictly on a first come first served basis, so if there’s something you really want to register for, it’s a good idea to get yourself registered quickly.

Tourigny and goaltending coach Rick Wamsley have also been fired, while assistant coach Jason Smith has been “relieved of his coaching duties and has been offered another position within the organization.”

Dorion said there is no specific position Smith has been offered, and that there is no timeline for when he must accept.

“It’s not a great day, and it’s not a fun day. We are dealing with human beings here,” said Dorion at the opening of a press conference on April 12 to discusses the dismissals.

“There have been evaluations going on for the past month,” said Dorion. “Since I was appointed to general manager on Sunday, I had conversations with the management group that includes Bryan (Murray, former general manager), that includes (director of hockey operations) Randy Lee about how we can get better and we just went about it and decided

that this was the course of action to take and we informed the coaches this morning.”

The dismissals come after

Since I was appointed to general manager on Sunday, I had conversations with the management group ... and decided that this was the course of action to take and we informed the coaches this morning.

Pierre Dorion, Senators GM

team owner Eugene Melnyk announced on April 10 that Dorion would replace Murray as general manager of

the hockey club. Murray has been battling cancer since June of 2014.

This also comes following a rough season for the Sens, as the team missed the playoffs.

“I think we have a team that underachieved this year,” said Dorion, adding that the players must bear part of the responsibility for this, not just the coaching staff.

While he said he does not yet have a list of possible head coaches, he said he would like to have one by draft time, and that the head coach will have “total autonomy” to bring on whomever they would like as coaching staff.

“Mr. (Eugene) Melnyk (owner of the Sens) has assured me that we have the resources to hire the best available coach,” said Dorion.

Asked if there will be changes to the team’s roster come training camp in September, Dorion said there will be, but said today is not the time to talk about it.

Committee approves licensing of Uber cars Jennifer McIntosh

jennifer.mcintosh@metroland.com

After dozens of delegations and nearly as many motions, the city’s community and protective services committee voted in favour of licensing

the ride-sharing app Uber on April 8.

In addition to allowing organizations such as Uber to operate under a new class of car-for-hire called private transportation companies, the bylaw change will reduce

the fee for taxi licences and allow for fare flexibility when a rider books a traditional taxi through an electronic app.

The decision came as a result of a review of the industry by consultant KPMG and a slate of 70 recommenda-

tions that came in a 116-page document. A notable change by the committee to the series of recommendations was the start of the new bylaw.

The motion was presented

by Osgoode Coun. George Darouze. The change would push back the implementation of the new set of rules

to Sept. 30 from June 30 to give the industry more time to adapt to the new rules.

The first day of deliberations saw nearly 100 people from all walks of life – Uber drivers, taxi drivers, representatives from the tourism industry and accessibility advocates.

On the second day, committee chair Diane Deans said the city wouldn’t compromise on the issues of safety or accessibility.

Deans added that she didn’t want to see councillors using regulatory tools to bar Uber from entering the market place.

“You can’t say that you want PTCs and then it’s death by a thousand cuts,” she said.

A few motions, aimed at dealing with a number of requests made by taxi companies, fell flat.

The most notable of which was to require private transportation companies to have

Police Insp. John Maxwell spoke to the committee about the value of cameras in taxi cabs.

He said they are invaluable

as a crime deterrent and have helped solve cases.

College Coun. Rick Chiarelli championed the motion.

‘Non-answers’ from Uber rep. does not ease coun. concerns Continued from page 16

“If we don’t do it now,” he said of making cameras mandatory in cars operated by services such as Uber, “we will end up doing it later and wondering why we didn’t do it now.”

City deputy manager Susan Jones said the cost of a camera in a cab was $1,185 when the requirement was rolled out in 2008.

Some councillors felt that the price was an undue burden on Uber drivers, many of whom work less than 10 hours per week, according to Uber public policy manager Chris Schafer.

Deans said the nature of apps such as Uber, which

provide the driver photo and licence plate to the rider and the fact that each transaction is done electronically, makes cameras unnecessary.

After the motion failed angry taxi drivers filed out of council chambers.

One yelled “you’re biased.”

West Carleton Coun. Eli El-Chantiry put forward an unsuccessful motion to force PTC drivers to undergo mandatory driver training.

Deans said the market should determine which training is important.

The committee did manage to add one set of checks and balances, thanks to a

motion by Knoxdale-Merivale Coun. Keith Egli.

The motion requires any PTC in operation to hand over each driver’s licence and proof of insurance to the chief licence inspector two weeks prior to the enacting of the bylaw and every three months after.

Egli said that he has some issues with the business practices of Uber. He said that the “non-answers” he received from company rep Schafer the day before didn’t allay his concerns and he thinks the information would be a usual enforcement tool.

City council as a whole will vote on the committee’s recommendations on April 13.

Negotiations have again broken down between the Ontario Lottery and Gaming (OLG) Corporation and workers from the Rideau Carleton Raceway Slots, continuing a lockout that has been in affect since December.

On March 30, the Public Service Alliance of Canada (PSAC) met again with OLG to continue negotiations over the workers’ collective agreement. PSAC is looking to secure wage increases for the slots employees, who have been without a raise since 2009, and protect their existing pension language. “Basically they (OLG) were unwilling to continue negotiating,” said Alroy Fonseca, a communications officer with PSAC. Fonseca said there was a lot of pressure on OLG to come back to the bargaining table after a rally at Queen’s Park in March brought more focus onto the fight of the workers.

started well, he said, but soon turned ugly when representatives from OLG walked out of negotiations.

“It was definitely an abrupt departure,” he said.

A spokesperson with OLG, Rui Brum, said the union is making it difficult to have a serious discussion about the collective agreement.

“Unfortunately PSAC was unwilling to talk seriously and that’s why negoti-

ations broke down,” he said.

“They’re not willing to make any movement in negotiations.”

According to Brum, OLG and PSAC had the help of a conciliator from the Ministry of Labour for their most recent meeting, but even that couldn’t help the groups come to an agreement. Negotiations have been ongoing for the current agreement for a year and a half, and PSAC says they’re not giving up any time soon.

“We’re going to continue

to fight for the rights of the workers,” Fonseca said.

PSAC will continue their campaign of political pressure, working with area politicians to call attention to their battle with OLG. OLG, in response, said they are willing to go back to the bargaining table to discuss the collective agreement.

“We are open to it and have always been open to it,” Brum said. “We continue to be open to serve our patrons.”

Gymnastics club launches season with Kanata Cup Submitted

The Kanata Rhythmic Sportive Gymnastic Club launched its competitive season on March 12 and 13 with its 26th annual Kanata Cup. Gymnasts in the interclub, provincial, national and Special Olympic streams from three area clubs and five other clubs from the Montreal and Toronto areas, tested their routines against others in their age and category level.

Kanata gymnasts placed well against their competitors with notable placings going to Isabel and Chantal Raoux, Emily Qin, Kylie Fung, Isabel Chui, Serena Nie, Karma Makary, Alanna Lu, Jessica Luo, Britney Han, Sylvia Qi, Jade Vo, Brianna Lu, Adeline Wang and Caroline Liang.

The club was honoured

to have former Ottawa 67’s coach Brian Kilrea award medals to several of the gymnasts during the weekend long event.

The coveted Kanata Cup, awarded to the club with the highest number of overall placings on the weekend, went to the Ottawa Rhythmic Gymnastics Club. The weekend event was a huge success due in large part to the exceptional volunteers who supported the home club and all the gymnasts.

The Kanata Rhythmic Sportive Gymnastic Club’s new national level stream gymnasts also travelled to compete in their first national level competition at the 2016 Rhythmic Elite Ontario Championships.

The event was hosted by Mississauga NewNorth RG Club at the Hershey SportZone in Mississauga, Ont., on March 19. The

wonderful performances put forth by our gymnasts were marked by a second and 12th place overall placing by Haley Miller and Erika Lin respectively in the junior open division; and with a 10th and 12th place finishing overall by Emma Yau and Cynthia Zhang respectively in the Novice division.

They are to be congratulated on the solid placings in their first ever national level event. More to come from these amazing athletes who will travel to their first international competition held in Chicago next month.

Week in Review This week is National Volunteer Week in Canada. We are very fortunate in Kanata South to have so many awesome volunteers in our community. Last weekend I hosted my annual rink volunteer’s appreciation event to thank all the volunteers who take the time to work on our outdoor rinks all winter. Thanks to your hard work and dedication, our community has the use of 15 fantastic outdoor rinks. That is just one area where volunteers make the difference. The Kanata Food Cupboard, our various Service Clubs, those who operate our many different sports groups that are far too many to list in this space and the volunteers who individually take time to help others such as visiting seniors or residents who are unable to leave their homes – all deserve our appreciation for giving their time to help others!

In our first series of articles in this paper, we tried to tell you some of the basic steps leading to a healthier life. We hope we were helpful in doing that.

Now, by coincidence, we have the opportunity to hear from one of North America’s experts in this field, how to get the most out of the food we eat. It turns out that Dr. Michael Greger will be speaking here in Ottawa on May 10.

What makes him so special? For one thing, he has no hidden agenda.

He does not make any money for himself in the work he does in nutrition.

His website, nutritionfacts.org, does not have links to special vitamins, or potions, or elixirs, that he is trying to sell. Nor does he have any connections with any private companies or product manufacturers.

What he does have is a very good understanding of much of the credible research and reports that abound in the field of health and nutrition.

In effect, he scours out all the current information available on this subject, sorts through it, and delivers the essence of it all in layperson’s terms to anybody who wants to know. And he does it in a very entertaining style.

I met Greger myself a few years ago when he spoke here in Ottawa to a very appreciative group of some 100 people. In a separate session, we were also able to arrange for him to address the graduating class of medical students from the University of Ottawa.

Not only were those students impressed with what he had to say (and they can be a tough audience!), but we found out what little nutrition information they learned in their curriculum. Even doctors can learn a lot from Greger.

If you can free up the evening of May 10, you should come out to hear him. You may learn things you never knew about your diet. You may learn how to eat healthier, how to enjoy your food more, and perhaps even how to save your life.

All proceeds from the event go toward Greger’s charity, NutritionFacts.org, to continue his good work and non-profit public service.

An Evening With Dr. Greger is on Tuesday, May 10 from 6 to 9:30 p.m. at Machzikei Hadas, 2310 Virginia Dr., near Billings Bridge. Go to www.healthwiseottawa.com for tickets and more information.

More and more, people are taking notice of the technology companies innovating in Kanata North.

The recent TechNATA career fair and tech demo event is the latest proof of that, said Kanata North Business Improvement Area executive director Jenna Sudds.

The event, hosted by the BIA, saw 51 companies participate and 1,300 people attend on April 7 at the Brookstreet Hotel.

That’s up from 35 companies and 1,100 attendees last year.

“I think there is definitely a growing interest in the interesting tech happening in Kanata,” said Sudds.

“People are paying more attention than ever, and recognizing that there are some fabulous opportunities for meaningful work.”

But a new job wasn’t the only reason to check out TechNATA. For the first time in its three years, the BIA added a tech demonstration component to the fair so companies could See 1,300, page 27

To show what it might be like for your car’s systems to be hacked and taken over remotely, an Irdeto employee drives a virtual car as someone else presses a button to disengage the car’s brakes. The software security company was one of about a dozen that demonstrated their tech at the TechNATA job fair on April 7 in Kanata.

NOTICE OF PESTICIDE USE

Between April 15 and September 15, 2016, G.D.G. Environnement Ltée. will be applying a biological larvicide by air and ground to stagnant water in order to control larval mosquitoes that impact on the residents of Kanata North and the surrounding areas.

The program will use multiple ground applications of the larvicides VectoBac 1200L (Bacillus thuringiensis israelensis, PCP #21062, liquid) and Vectolex CG (Bacillus sphaericus, PCP # 28008, granular), while VectoBac 200G (Bacillus thuringiensis israelensis, PCP #18158, granular) will be applied by helicopter.

The treatment area map and program details may be accessed on ottawa.ca

demonstrate their innovations to job seekers and the general public.

CAR HACK ATTACK

One of the companies that participated was Irdeto, a software security company that develops products to keep hackers out of various computer systems.

They signalled their move into automotive software with a video game-like demo meant to show how it feels to have your car’s systems taken over.

Using the kind of racing video game setup you might see at an arcade, attendees took a turn in a virtual racecar, navigating sharp turns on a course displayed on three monitors.

Others could press a blue button to remotely trigger the virtual car’s accelerator, or a red one to disable the virtual brake.

That way, you can see first hand what could happen if your car’s software is taken over, said one of the employees at the booth.

Organizer hopes tech demo portion grows vehicles, and that software is able to control more and more things as the auto industry move towards autonomous driving capabilities. So it’s a fair bet that more and more cars will be remotely hacked in the future, said an Irdeto employee. That’s where Irdeto’s service comes in.

Continued from page 27

Though the Irdeto staff could not say how many cars currently on the road are susceptible to that level of remote hacking (they said automakers don’t generally share that information), some like the Jeep Cherokee are, as demonstrated in a Wired story. Or at least they were. Chrysler recalled 1.4 million vehicles for a “bug fix,” says a subsequent Wired article.

But more and more software is in our

The local company creates sensors that can monitor the temperature, depth, conductivity, salinity and oxygenation of water and the software that displays this information.

Q: A friend tells me that he used a family trust to multiply the use of the lifetime capital gains exemption and saved a lot of tax on the sale of his business. Is a family trust useful for my business?

There are many types and uses of trusts. In essence, a trust is a contractual relationship in which one or more persons (trustees) hold property on behalf of another group of persons (beneficiaries). Family trusts, also known as discretionary family trusts, are a particular type of trust widely used to hold shares of private business corporations.

In the typical discretionary family trust, the trustees are the parents (and often one additional trusted friend or relative) and the income and capital beneficiaries are the parents, their children, grandchildren and remoter relatives, if desired. The trust acquires shares of the active business corporation pursuant to a corporate re-organization, resulting in income to the trust out of dividends from the corporation, and capital gains on disposition of the shares of the corporation. Since income and capital gains retain their character for tax purposes when distributed through a trust, significant tax savings About Allan Snelling

may be realized when proceeds are distributed among family members whose marginal tax rates are lower, or to family members who have not previously used their lifetime capital gains exemption.

Discretionary family trusts also serve other purposes, including business succession and asset protection.

If properly set up, a discretionary family trust may also be “unwound” simply and without adverse tax consequence.

Under the Income Tax Act, a discretionary family trust is deemed to have disposed of its property every 21 years.

This deemed disposition gives rise to a taxable capital gain within the trust, if the property has appreciated in value. Typically a discretionary family trust is wound up before 21 years to avoid the application of the deeming provision.

There are significant tax and legal complexities and traps associated with setting up and using discretionary family trusts. Legal and accounting advice should be obtained.

Prov. announces $1.5 million for youth treatment centre Adam Kveton

adam.kveton@metroland.com

“It’s going to happen, folks. It’s going to happen.”

Those were the words of Dave Smith, philanthropist, restaurateur and founder of the Dave Smith Youth Treatment Centre, which helps youth overcome substance abuse and other issues.

He and many others were present in Carp, at one of three Dave Smith treatment centre locations, on April 8 when OttawaWest Nepean MPP Bob Chiarelli announced the provincial government is committing $1.5 million towards the centre’s $7.8-million project to build a 30-bed treatment centre.

“It’s going to happen,” said Smith of the planned centre. However Smith’s enthusiasm for the momentum of the campaign didn’t stop him from soliciting more donations.

“It could happen faster if you all open up your chequebooks,” he said to the crowd of several dozen people, who responded with laughter and nods – he is known for those sorts of comments, some of them said.

See IF FEDS, page 37

If feds match, building of new facility to start 2017 Continued from page 33

However, the campaign, dubbed Dave’s Dream, really is gearing up to start construction, said the executive director of the Dave Smith Youth Treatment Centre Foundation, Stephanie MacGregor.

The foundation now has $4.5 million left to raise for the campaign. However it is working with the federal government in the hopes that it might match provincial funding.

Even with $3 million left to raise, MacGregor said “we’re good to go” and start construction as early as next year.

HELPING KIDS

While Chiarelli outlined the importance of what Smith has done to start the youth centre, the importance

of the work it does was emphasized with a short video about a former client of the centre – Jemma Barlas.

In it, she describes being so deep into addiction in her late teens that she often saw no reason to try and

I felt like I conquered the world by being sober.

Jemma Barlas, former client of treatment centre

get healthy again, as there might not be anything left to save.

But with the help of the youth treatment centre, she said she learned that she didn’t have to consume a dangerous substance to feel

OK about life.

“It’s possible to not hate yourself,” she said in the video.

Barlas, now 22, was sitting in the crowd during the funding announcement, but as others watched the video, she looked down at her knees and let out a few tears.

“I felt like I conquered the world by being sober,” she said in the video, and encouraged others struggling with addiction that working to get sober again was worth it.

Derek Johnson, vicechair of the treatment centre, referred to Barlas as a “shining example to all of us.”

People like her are why he and others are motivated to build the new facility, he said.

LEAVEYOURLASTING MARKFORCHEO’S CHILDREN&FAMILIES KATHLEEN BELIEVED IN THE GREAT LOVE OF NEW-BORN CHILDREN AND THE IMPORTANCE OF EARLY CARE TO THEIR LIVES. FOR THAT REASON HER SON ESTABLISHED THE KATHLEEN ELIZABETH AND E. NEVILLE WARD ENDOWMENT FUND FOR NURSING EDUCATION IN HER MEMORY.

For more than 40 years our community has benefited from the care and medical expertise at CHEO. While some of us have thankfully never had to use CHEO, others have for minor or sometimes more serious issues. The one commonality we all share is a great respect and appreciation for CHEO. We want it to be here for our kids, our kids’ kids and beyond that. That is what Forever CHEO is all about!

By making a planned gift to CHEO you not only help future generations of children, but you also provide some tax relief to your estate, while still providing for your family members.

Here are some ways you can create your Forever CHEO legacy: make a bequest in your Will; create an endowment fund; name CHEO as the beneficiary of your RRSPs or RRIFs; or take out a life insurance policy with CHEO as the beneficiary.

CONSIDER CREATING A TRULY LASTING LEGACY AND HELP TO ENSURE THAT CHEO IS FOREVER PART OF OUR COMMUNITY.

Your gift keeps on giving. Forever.

New facility needed to keep up with demand Continued from page 37

The new 30-bed facility will be a centralized substance abuse residential treatment centre for youth from the ages of 13 to 21, says the foundation’s website. Rather than continuing to support existing treatment centres in Stittsville, Carleton Place and Carp, which need costly repairs, the new facility will bring together all staff and programs in a single location – a 10-hectare lot just west of the Carp location.

The existing treatment centre, at its three locations, treat about 160 youths and their families every year.

There are many more youth in need that the centres are not able to treat. A centralized facility built specifically as a residential treatment centre will be more ef-

ficient and provide “exceptional care that helps heal young lives and families,” the organization says.

However it is Smith’s “compassion and passion” that has convinced politicians, health professionals and many more to take notice and do something about it, said Ottawa Centre MPP Yasir Naqvi.

“We are here because we believe in you (Dave Smith),” said Naqvi.

Bringing up the often repeated phrase “the children are our future,” Naqvi amended it, saying “Every single child is our future.”

Smith has shown that society must pay attention and support those least likely to succeed as well, he said.

Chiarelli too lauded the achievements of Smith, saying, “The community owes you a debt of gratitude.”

Local model discovered at the Rideau Centre Laura Winges went from selling clothes to modelling them on the runways of Paris, London and Milan mmurray@metroland.com

Laura Winges can’t wait for Bridal Week in New York City.

The 21-year-old, originally from Nepean, looks forward to walking the catwalk in flowing gowns of white.

“It’s always a lot of wedding dresses, but I can’t wait,” Winges said.

Bridal Week is a far cry from what she was doing a short year and a half ago.

Then, she was working at the Brandy Melville clothing store at the Rideau Centre after leaving a post-secondary program and figuring out what steps to take next in her life.

She had just reached her goal to be part of the Ontario ringette team and was posting fashion photos to her Instagram account, which was gaining in popularity.

At five feet 11 inches, Winges never wore heels and was often told by her customers that she should model because she was so tall.

It was a comment she usually laughed off — until a photographer handed her his card.

Everything snowballed from there.

Within a month she was working in South Korea and since then

she’s worked with a number of agents walking the catwalks of London, Paris, Tokyo and Milan. In her first season, she did 16 shows.

“Now I like my job a lot and I still can’t believe this is what I’m doing now.”

As a rookie, she took in ev-

erything she could, learning from other models and asking a lot of questions.

“It was a lot to take in at first,

and I’m still learning to walk in heels,” she said.

Winges quit ringette to pursue modelling full time Continued from page 43

Winges has modelled brands she never imagined, including Dior and Armani. She’s even been in a show at fashion designer Pierre Cardin’s Bubble Palace in the south of France.

“I love architecture and had learned about that house, so it was really neat,” she said.

Her favourite show, so far, has been walking for Dior.

“It’s such a high-end show and every detail

matters,” she said.

Before being discovered, Winges hadn’t

travelled much at all.

In the course of the season, she became a world traveller.

44 Kanata Kourier-Standard - Thursday, April 14, 2016

“All of a sudden I’m going to huge cities. I’m so lucky and grateful. It has really changed me,” Winges said.

With all of the travelling, she’s also made friends around the “ world, with New York being her home away from home.

While she had brushed off comments about her being a model previously, she said those who do want to follow in her footsteps should know it’s a tough industry.

“My agent warned me

about the industry; it’s intense and you will get rejected.”

But that shouldn’t be a deterrent, she said.

“Don’t be shy, and send your pictures out,” she said.

“Keep trying, you never know what you might miss out on.”

For now, Winges is riding the wave and seeing where things in the industry take her.

“Hopefully I’ll book a big campaign to bring my career to the next level,” she said.

At the time Winges was discovered, she had to quit ringette to start modelling and though she doesn’t have time for the sport, she took the time to skate on the canal this winter.

“I don’t have any regrets, but I do miss it.”

Perfect lifestyle for all types of people

KANATA AND STITTSVILLE

Ottawa’s west end still a fast growing community Jen Traplin Known for its bountiful green spacaes, booming high-tech industry, popular attractions like the Canadian Tire Centre (home of the Ottawa Senators) and the Diefenbunker, as well as a wide array of residential communities, the City of Ottawa’s west end offers the perfect lifestyle for just about anyone.

The area has enjoyed steady growth for decades, particularly in Kanata, one of Ottawa’s largest suburbs, and Stittsville, which lies just west of Kanata and roughly 30 minutes from the downtown core.

15 years ago, before Kanata became part of the amalgamated City of Ottawa, it was one of

the fastest growing communities in Canada, a trend that continues to this day. More than 80,000 Ottawa residents now call Kanata home and the area is constantly expanding, not just in terms of residential development but business as well.

Kanata North houses many of the major hitech employers in Ottawa, including Cisco Systems, Inc., Blackberry and Mitel, and rumours continue to swirl about Apple setting up shop in the same business park, the largest research and tech park in the country.

Just a few kilometres west is Stittsville, which started as a sleepy farming community in the 1800s and has since transformed into a bustling suburb, while still managing to hang onto its village charm.

Recently, the City of Ottawa released a Community Design Plan for Stittsville, which aims to preserve the heritage status of the area while also transforming it into a modern and more walkable community.

Big city living with village charm Western suburb

The past ten years has seen big changes for Stittsville Jen traplin One of the Ottawa region’s best kept secrets is the small, western suburb of Stittsville, which offers all of the luxuries of big city living while still holding onto its historic village charm.

In the past decade, the population of Stittsville has exploded as the area has undergone a massive transformation.

“There are a lot of new businesses coming in and there are a ton of new people. We’re over 30,000 people in Stittsville,” says Glen Gower, vice president of the Stittsville Village Association. “It’s really changed in the last five years.”

During that time, there has been a steady stream of new residential builds and several big box stores — like Michaels, Winners and Lowe’s — have moved into new retail locations along the now widened Hazeldean Road.

“On one hand, you’re getting these really big businesses and chain stores and, at the same time, we’re getting a lot of really interesting, locally owned small businesses as well,” Gower says.

“I’m thinking of places like Covered Bridge

Ottawa-born musician Kathleen edwards opened Quitters Coffee in stittsville. Contributed

Brewing, a craft brewer on Iber Road, or Quitters Coffee, owned by Kathleen Edwards, and a lot of other small businesses like the food trucks coming in.”

Of course, at the heart of Stittsville’s draw is

its village charm. Many of the buildings along Stittsville Main Street are designated heritage status. While some have been preserved, others have been neglected, creating a bit of a turning point, in terms of Stittsville’s identity.

“I think Stittsville is still figuring out what kind of community it really is. Is it a little bit outside of Ottawa -- that idea that it’s a bit beyond the fringe? Or is it a modern suburb? I don’t know,” admits Gower.

With more than 50,000 hours of flight time, the aircraft was used as a transport plane, a navigation training airplane and a search and rescue plane.

The Hercules 307 was the third of its kind acquired by the military between 1964 and 1968.

After more than 50 years in service the Tiger 307 has touched down for the last time.

Canada Aviation and Space Museum’s neighbouring airport, the Rockcliffe Airport.

The aircraft landed at 11:30 a.m., where a number of its current and former flight crew stepped off, to say goodbye.

The Department of National Defence donated the plane to the museum, to become part of the facilty’s permanent exhibition. According to the museum, the donation commemorates

Canada’s last Hercules E Legacy takes final flight Continued from page 51

Lt.-Gen. Michael Hood, commander of the Royal Canadian Air Force, said although it was a sad day for many who have sat in the cockpit or on the Hercules, he was happy to know that it has found its final home with the museum.

“This is something we should

celebrate,” Hood said.

Hood said his first flight with the aircraft was in 1988.

“It was a great privilege to be able to fly it,” he said.

Pilots Lt.-Col. Phil Marcus and Maj. Keith Hoey had the task of flying the aircraft on its last mission. Together the pair has more than 6,000 hours in the air with the 307, which they said was easy

as pie to fly.

“It’s so steady,” Hoey explained.

Marcus agreed, crediting its long wingspan.

Both spent their time in the aircraft mostly within Canada and looking back on their time in the air, both agreed Alert, Nunavut, was their favourite mission.

“Imagine the middle of no-

where, and then go past it,” Hoey said. “It’s just amazing, it’s quite a sight to see.”

Canada Science and Technology Museum Corporaton president Alex Benay was a passenger for its final flight.

“The Canada Aviation and Space Museum prides itself in charting not only Canada’s rich aviation heritage, but also the important mile-

Beney added it was a honour to accept guardianship of the aircraft for future generations to see and learn from.

There is no defined date for when the Hercules will be on display, but the museum said it aims to have the aircraft a part of its summer programming.

Battle of Vimy Ridge remembered on 99th anniversary Brier Dodge

brier.dodge@metroland.com

Legion members, politicians, and local youth gathered on April 9 to mark the 99th anniversary of the Battle of Vimy Ridge at Vimy Memorial Bridge in Riverside South.

Members of the Barrhaven and Manotick branches of the Royal Canadian Legion organized the second annual event, which also included local army cadets and the Falkland Sea Cadet band.

Legion members and local politicians gathered at Claudette Cain Park to remember the battle as well as those who lost their lives almost a century ago.

The Battle of Vimy Ridge lasted for three days; 3,598 Canadians died.

Carleton MP Pierre Poilievre, Nepean MP Chandra Arya, Mayor Jim Watson, Gloucester-South Nepean Coun. Michael Qaqish and Barrhaven Coun. Jan Harder all delivered remarks before laying wreaths.

“We must not forget the brave souls who gave their lives,” Arya said. “We owe them our everlasting gratitude.”

Watson said it’s important that Canadians continue to honour war heroes and those who died in battle. His father and grandfather both fought for Canada.

Thinking of the sacrifices made by families 99 years ago makes some of the complaints that come into her office seem quite small, said Harder, such as a dog barking or a fence painted a colour a neighbour doesn’t like.

“I wonder today, I wonder how many people would want to allow their children to go fight, like many of our great-grandparents did?” she said.

The bridge was originally called the Strandherd-Armstrong Bridge when it was completed in 2014, and connects Barrhaven and Riverside South.

Later that year, city council approved the Vimy Memorial Bridge name, after local legion members made the suggestion.

It was a fitting spot, Watson said, to remember the anniversary.

The colour party stands next to the Vimy Memorial Bridge at Claudette Cain Park on April 9, just before wreaths were laid.

Eric Lindros urges Queen’s Park to act fast on Rowan’s Law Staff

Rowan Stringer died after she sustained a concussion playing rugby.

16,205 YOUS

vate member’s bill has been stalled in committee.

Fearing that the provincial government would prorogue the legislature before it passes Rowan’s Law, MacLeod wrote a letter to government house leader and Ottawa Centre MPP Yasir Naqvi, urging him to push the bill through to third reading.

In 2012 a similar bill was introduced by the Liberal

government, but died when former premier Dalton McGuinty prorogued the legislature.

“As a society we cannot let that happen again,” MacLeod said in the letter.

“Witness the tragic deaths to second impact syndrome and suicide, or the struggles with depression that can be the result of concussions.

As a legislative assembly we must act.”

Retired NHL player Eric Lindros showed his support for concussion legislation on April 5 when he joined Nepean-Carleton MPP Lisa MacLeod at Queen’s Park to call on the Ontario legislature to pass Rowan’s Law. If passed, Rowan’s Law would be the first concussion legislation of its kind in Canada, applying the recommendations of the coroner’s inquest into the 2013 death of Nepean rugby player Rowan Stringer from second impact syndrome.

“Timing is everything and right now we need to pass Rowan’s Law so we have consistency in protocols, treatment and awareness,” said Lindros, who sustained multiple concussions during his NHL career.

Lindros has supported concussion awareness in the past, contributing financially to research at Western University’s Schulich School of Medicine.

“Eric’s support brings

much needed attention to the importance of concussion legislation in Canada and the need for a centralizing role in concussion treatment and awareness,” MacLeod said.

Rowan’s Law has received support from all three parties and is being co-sponsored by NDP MPP Catherine Fife and Liberal MPP John Fraser. Despite widespread support, the pri-

Hand-me-down box came with a colourful surprise

T

he spring handme-down box from Aunt Lizzie was waiting for us at the station in Renfrew.

The stationmaster had called; a man of few words, and all he said was, “It’s here.”

We knew exactly what he was talking about. It would mean a trip into Renfrew with the flat-bottomed wagon.

The wooden box, which had one time held bulk tea

ver kind of paper, was much too big for the buggy. So the team was hitched to the wagon, and Father made the trip into Renfrew.

It was almost suppertime by the time we saw Father come in the lane. With the three brothers helping, the big box was heaved into the kitchen, where it would sit until our evening meal was over, the kitchen redded up, and our hands washed.

why we all had to wash our hands before we could touch an old and badly marked-up box that came all the way from Regina on the train.

Very seldom was there anything in the box besides boy’s clothes and well-worn men’s suits and shirts from Uncle Jack. It was like my sister Audrey and I didn’t even exist, as far as Aunt Lizzie was concerned.

That night, sitting around

and was lined with a heavy sil-

I could never understand

the box, as Everett pried off

the lid with the crowbar, in my mind’s eye, I thought we looked just like my Sunday school class at the Lutheran Church at Northcote.

Why Audrey and I even bothered to sit and wait for the box to be unpacked was beyond me! Well, were we in for a surprise! Sitting on the very top of the pile of clothes was a big red leghorn hat. (I had no idea why they were called leghorn hats. I thought a leghorn was a hen running around the barnyard!)

But there it was, one of Aunt Lizzie’s hats.

The crown of the hat was mashed down as flat as a pancake by the lid of the box, but the brim was in perfect condition. I thought the hat would be perfect for the days my little friend Velma and I dressed up in our mother’s clothes.

Well, Mother had a different idea. It was like someone had just handed her a $100 bill! She went right to the mirror at the back door, wearing the hat. My sister let out a snicker. “Mother, you can’t wear that with the crown all smashed down.”

A flat crown was not going to stop Mother from wearing the hat, and she went right to the wood box where a stack of Renfrew Mercury papers were at the ready, and scrunched up several and crammed them into the hat. Right before our eyes we could see the hat transformed into something

MARY COOK Memories that would only be seen on the head of one of Renfrew’s richest women. I knew the hat would go to the Lutheran Church on Sunday!

And it did. And it certainly caught the attention of the other ladies. Many complimented Mother, which pleased me no end.

We took our pew and Father had to move over from Mother, because the wide brim of the hat caught him square in the face when she turned her head. So I sat beside her, taking many a look at Aunt Lizzie’s hat that had found new life out there in Renfrew county. Half way through the sermon, I glanced at the hat, and poking out, just above Mother’s ear, was a good sized piece of the Renfrew Mercury advertising silk bloomers at .20 cents a pair.

I was torn. Should I try to stuff the piece back into the hat, tell Mother what was happening, or let nature take its course? I decided to poke the paper back into the hat,

which caused Mother to glare down at me as if I had committed some deadly sin.

I whispered to her, as quietly as I could what was happening, which caused the minister to glare at me, but I could tell Mother was grateful.

Heaven forbid the entire Church know her beautiful leghorn hat was stuffed with the Renfrew Mercury!

She never wore the hat again, but Velma and I were thrilled to prance around the house in it, pretending we were one of those rich women from Renfrew, who bought eggs and butter from our Mothers every Saturday.

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