News - Crime rates rose across Kanata, bucking the citywide trend that saw an increase of less than one per cent.

Property crimes saw the biggest jump in both Kanata wards, accounting for 85 per cent of all offences in 2012. According to statistics released by Ottawa police, one in 50 people in both wards experienced a

property crime last year.

Thefts from vehicles and fraud increased in both wards, while Kanata South saw a rise in arson and Kanata North had a spike in break and enters and theft of $5,000 and under.

But both communities also experienced decreases in crimes against the person – such as robbery and assault.

In total, north Kanata saw a 10 per cent increase in Criminal Code offences (excluding traffic offences) with 796 crimes, compared to 723 in 2011. Kanata South experienced a rise of four per cent, coming in at 1,084 offences in 2012, compared with a total of 1,044 the previous year. “I believe charges are higher for a number of reasons,� said Kanata South Coun. Allan Hubley. “The public is more aware of how to report a crime and how to provide descriptions and details in a manner that is leading to more charges.�

Kanata Legion pays tribute to local war hero sabine.gibbins@metroland.com

News – A Korean War hero was remembered for his leadership and bravery at a memorial service last Saturday.

The Kanata Legion paid tribute to Lt.-Col. Ed Hollyer, MC, CD (retired), who passed away the morning of July 4.

He was 91 years old.

The legion hall was filled with friends, family, military dignitaries, the Kanata Symphony Orchestra, and legion members, who celebrated Hollyer’s life.

During the memorial service, military representatives who had worked with Hollyer or known him, remembered him as a courageous and kindhearted man.

Col. Joe Atchison said Hollyer taught young officers about bravery and teamwork. “He led an active battle of fundamental importance to Canadian forces,� he said. “I don’t think you can give anymore credibility to him. He was a proven courageous leader.�

Maj. John Summerfield from CFB Petawawa spoke highly of Hollyer, saying he was struck by the poise and grace Hollyer carried with him.

Summerfield said he came to know Hollyer this year.

Korean War Veterans Association president Bill Black said Hollyer’s actions during the Korean War will never be forgotten.

And Donovan Redknap, who spoke through tears, remembered him as a long-time friend and leader during the battle for Hill 187. “I could talk for hours about him,� he said, remarking on the brave decision Hollyer made.

A HISTORY

In May 1953, Hollyer led the defence of what was known as Hill 187, one of the Royal Canadian Regiment’s most epic battles, during the Korean War. He played a crucial leadership role in the battle and due to his bravery throughout the engagement, was awarded the Military Cross.

Hollyer also served his country during the Second World War, when he served in the Royal Canadian Air

STARTING FROM

Force from 1942 to 1944.

Transferring into the safety equipment department, he became a parachute rigger at a flight training school in Oshawa.

Hollyer would transfer as a private into the Canadian Army in 1945, with the goal of serving overseas.

After undertaking basic and advanced infantry training at Camp Borden, as well as jungle warfare training, Pte. Hollyer was posted to The Royal Canadian Regiment.

With the war in Europe coming to an end, he had volunteered to serve in the Pacific against the Japanese.

Pte. Hollyer joined the 1st Battalion, 1st Regiment, 6th Canadian Infantry Division, which had been created in 1945 as part of the Canadian Army Pacific Force.

The outbreak of the Korean War in June 1950 would mark a crucial turning point in his life. The Royal Canadian Regiment was slated to become a multi-battalion infantry regiment.

In 1951, he became an officer.

Another battalion was created specifically for service in Korea in January 1951, where Second Lt. Hollyer would eventually be posted as a platoon commander.

The Royal Canadian Regiment departed Petawawa by train for Seattle on Feb. 7, 1953. On March 23, the battalion reached Pusan, South Korea.

After a period in reserve, the battalion rotated into the front lines (known as the Jamestown Line) on April 19, occupying a defensive positions on and around Hill 187.

Hollyer’s platoon then took charge of a defended location on Hill 97.

In late April 1953, signs pointed to an imminent Chinese attack on or in the vicinity of Hill 187.

Enemy artillery and mortar fire was increasingly zeroing in on Charlie Company in the days prior to the attack. The Chinese force consisted of at least 400 men, more than the Canadian platoon.

Just before midnight on May 2 from his post on Hill 97, Hollyer could see the Chinese assault groups forming up inside the minefield, preparing to attack. His platoon was the most visible, with only two bunkers left in the platoon area.

Soldiers had to take cover in the back of their trenches as machine guns began to take over the platoon’s

Friends, family, military members, war veterans, and dignitaries filled the Kanata Legion hall to remember a man who led Canadians in battle against the Chinese during the Korean war.

lines and into their trenches, using grenades to silence the Canadian defenders.

Communication between the platoon and headquarters was destroyed.

The Chinese continued to advance, clearing trenches with grenades and satchel charges, taking many injured Canadian soldiers prisoner.

Hollyer called for artillery fire on his own position, where the Canadian and Commonwealth gunners blasted 3,400 shells. After checking on the status of his men, there were only eight left, and all the bunkers and trenches had been destroyed. The Chinese army started to withdraw.

The battle for Hill 187 was Canada’s bloodiest conflicts during the Korean War. To close the memorial service, Hollyer’s son Jeffrey played Song for all Seasons with Kanata Symphony founder Nancy Eadie, on the violin.

It was a fitting tribute to his father who once played the violin with the local orchestra.

Couple marries at Katimavik quilt store Sabine Gibbins Sabine.gibbins@metroland.com

News – A Kanata couple tied the knot at a quilt and fabric store in Katimavik on July 13.

The wedding, held at the Running Stitch, was anything but ordinary for bride Susan Scruton and groom Robert Friedman.

When they were dating, the couple had taken a beginner’s quilting course at the store, neither knowing how to sew or quilt.

“We love coming here and surrounding ourselves with creativity,” said Friedman.

“This shop us to create, and we get to do it together. That is the best part.”

Their idea of a perfect weekend is heading to the craft store to spend some time working together in the sewing room.

The Running Stitch’s owner Michele SanSABINE GIBBINS/METROLAND tere remembers the day Scruton walked into Susan Scruton and Robert Friedman married at The Running Stitch on July 13.

“When she came in with the ring, I asked her where they were planning on getting married and she said she didn’t know, so I said, ‘Why not here?’” said Santere.

FATE

The duo met and fell in love online while playing a game of Scrabble on Facebook.

They discovered they had nearly met one another several times throughout the course of their lives.

They attended the same high school in Montreal, with Scruton starting just after Friedman graduated. Both studied at Carleton University and the University of Ottawa, but at different times.

Furthermore, they lived on the same street in the Glebe, but again, Scruton arrived after Friedman had left.

There were many more near-misses over the years, but in 2008, fate played a role in bringing them together over a virtual Scrabble game.

They continued to play Scrabble for several more months before they finally met at a mutual friend’s 50th birthday party.

Friedman’s father, Shulom, said the family was very enthusiastic about the wedding, saying the couple shared many common interests, which he believed is the cornerstone of their marriage. He called the setting of the marriage ceremony a unique one.

“They’re a very special couple,” he said.

“We’re all very happy for them.”

After the ceremony, which included the Jewish tradition of breaking glass to formally unite the couple, Friedman said they were both relieved it was over, but elated to be joined by family and friends.

When the idea first came up to have the wedding at The Running Stitch, Scruton said they wondered what their guests would think.

But it proved to be a memorable occasion – in a place where they both shared a comforting hobby, said Friedman.

“It was everything we hoped for,” said Scruton.

Experience the freedom of the woods

I

have to apologize to my friends and colleagues who’ve been Facebooking and sending me regular emails.

They know I’ve recently acquired a smartphone, so I should have no excuse for being out of touch. But here’s the thing: three weeks into summer and we’ve spent every weekend in Gatineau Park. Gatineau Park doesn’t have good wireless coverage for my network. So for three days a week, I’ve essentially been switched off.

Although I’ve been reprimanded by friends for forgetting ladies drinks night and

BRYNNA LESLIE Capital Muse hounded by editors desperate to assign me summer projects, I’ve been enjoying the weekends of freedom. It turns out my kids feel the same way.

“Mom, I love camping,” said my seven-year-old the other day. “I feel so free when we’re camping.”

My boys are the perfect age

to explore nature on their own terms.

We set up camp and, with some established rules (okay, it’s still freedom with limits), they take off for hours at a time into the surrounding woods. It gives them the impression, at least, that they are loosed from the watchful

eyes of parents and rules.

They smash rocks and play war. They catch bugs and hide behind trees.

I asked my younger son what other kinds of things he likes to do in the woods.

“Last weekend, we made a fort,” he said. “And we made up a game: how many rocks you can throw into the hole in the bottom of the tree.”

They create things.

They have the autonomy to experiment without judgment or instruction and seemingly without limits.

Much of this comes down to the fact that they’ve been camping since their first years of life. We’ve also taken them to interpretive nature programs and safety programs, like Hug-a-Tree-and-Survive.

For two years, my kids have been carrying the backpack kit provided by the local Search and Rescue team – including a whistle, a plastic bag and a snack. (We replace the snack

on occasion). Age seven and eight, they’ve already been sleeping in their own tent for three years, which is shocking to most of their friends and mine.

Our first weekends of the summer also saw the baby get down and dirty.

Barefoot on grass, she crawled about and walked, pushing her little wagon further than ever before. One day, we found her with a squirmy green caterpillar wriggling between her wee thumb and forefinger. (She may have been about to eat it, but for that moment, she was just examining it and giggling).

When we’re camping, the baby eats well, sleeps well and hardly cries.

She gets dirt under her fingernails and campfire smoke in her eyes, and she loves it.

She’s a natural.

Sometimes we talk dreamily about buying a rural property so we can build a cabin

or a chalet. But the thing is we love camping.

Every trip offers an opportunity for the kids to meet new friends, explore new areas of the woods and grow. And they do grow, physically and also intellectually and emotionally.

There are no temper tantrums in the woods.

There is empathy and patience. I can’t explain how their personalities seem to change. Not bound by four walls, no ceiling to block the elements, their internal rhythms kick in. They sleep when it gets dark, wake with the sunrise and eat constantly, but heartily.

It really is a beautiful thing. They also like that mom is never distracted by the interrupting beep of her smartphone.

When’s the last time your kids experienced that kind of freedom?

When’s the last time you did?

Let’s avoid city planning extremes

T

here is little room for black and white when it comes to planning Ottawa’s future.

A good case-in-point is the debate that surrounded the decision to turn Main Street, running through Old Ottawa East, into what is described as a “complete street.�

This term describes a streetscape that makes room for all modes of transportation, from walking to cycling to cars to buses or other modes of mass transit.

It means wide sidewalks, designated cycling and transit lanes and typically fewer lanes for automobile traffic. It is the type of street that is meant to promote and support sustainable growth of cities, making the streetscape a friendlier place for those living and working in the area.

It is also something that can prove divisive, a situation that played out at a recent transportation committee meeting. Two councillors serving on the committee, both representing suburban wards, expressed concern with the effect such a street would have, not on those living in the area, but those passing through or living in areas that might become home to a complete street in the future.

Gloucester-Southgate Coun. Diane Deans said reducing the number of lanes on Main from four to two would have a negative effect on commuters from

her ward. Despite the good intentions of the complete street plan, that’s a concern worth considering.

In a similar vein, Kanata South Coun. Allan Hubley said Ottawa needs to “ensure we’re not designing all our streets in a way that chokes off traffic and the ability to transport people and goods.� Also a good point, but neither concern is reason enough not to make Main Street a more pleasant roadway for walkers and cyclists. They shouldn’t be ignored either.

As the city’s intensification policies play out and more people live in the urban core, it will no longer be feasible for more people to drive around their neighbourhood. This scenario won’t be playing out the same way in the suburbs, which will remain reliant on automobiles for decades to come.

The problem is, those people use the city’s urban core – for both work and pleasure – too. When they do, they’ll be riding in the comfort of their own automobiles. If we want our city’s roads to be as pleasant and as efficient as possible, automobiles must remain a big consideration for both city staff and councillors.

Like with many political decisions, the grey area between the black and white is where many of the best answers lie. Making sure Ottawa is a great place for all of us to live, work and play must be the paramount concern in all decisions made at city hall.

What happens when Alfie comes back?

I

t will be a few months before we have an answer to the big sports question, so far, of 2013. Will Ottawa hockey fans boo Daniel Alfredsson?

This is a bit of a trick question, because a percentage of people at the Sens arena have always booed Alfredsson. Those would be the Toronto Maple Leaf fans who have always hated Alfredsson for obscure historical reasons and have stumbled into the wrong arena.

But for most fans, Ottawa fans, the moment of truth will come the first time Alfredsson’s new team, the Detroit Red Wings, visits. Will he be booed, like Alexei Yashin and Dany Heatley, or cheered, like Mike Fisher, when he returned to Scotiabank Place as a member of the Nashville Predators?

Some people will never forgive Alfie for leaving Ottawa. Others will thank him for his many years of inspiring play for the Senators and wish him well. And some people will boo anyone not wearing a Senators uniform.

There are many different kinds of sports fans, as you found out reading the Internet comments on the day Alfredsson announced he was leaving town. While much of the city was in numb shock, some fans had moved on by mid-afternoon.

Online, they had already forgotten Alfie, as

CHARLES GORDON Funny Town they happily discussed the team’s new acquisitions, Bobby Ryan and Clarke MacArthur, dropping scoring statistics into the conversation, speculating on the positive effects of the team becoming younger, as well as various issues relating to the salary cap and other esoteric abstractions.

Meanwhile the rest of the city was in mourning. The rest of the city was talking about Alfredsson’s character, his contributions to the city, his leadership, his influence on young hockey players.

People like this root passionately for the home team. They love Ottawa’s players because they play for Ottawa. The more prominent of those players, particularly those who become more involved in the community, are especially beloved.

Because these fans are so loyal to the players, they expect the players to be loyal to them. But hockey, like all sports, like all society, doesn’t seem to work that way anymore.

Players are not loyal to teams, teams are not loyal to players -- at least, not forever.

Stars like Alfredsson leave because they see a better chance of winning somewhere else, or because they are offered more money. Teams trade popular veteran players, like Mike Fisher, because they think they can get something in return, or simply to dump some salary. It is a business, as we are constantly reminded.

This is a tough thing to explain to a young fan and you put off explaining it for as long as you can.

People thought that Alfredsson was different, but it turned out he wasn’t. People thought the Senators would do anything to keep Alfredsson in Ottawa, and it turned out that they wouldn’t.

Some of us would like it to be otherwise, but it’s a business.

We should know that, from looking at the prices we pay to get in and from looking at the reports of the salaries players are making and the vast amounts of cash laid out for television rights. But there is a part of every sports fan that is a starry-eyed little kid, just

wanting to cheer for the home team, worship the stars and not know anything about the financial details.

And it’s probably that little kid who keeps coming back, despite strikes, lockouts, drug scandals and all the other unpleasantness that has been plaguing professional sport in recent years.

We want to believe the best of our athletes and the teams they play for. Our faith isn’t always rewarded, but it is often enough to keep us in the game. Over the years, Alfie was one of those who helped us keep the faith, which is why it is so difficult to see him go.

Signs, signs . . .

Twenty seven signs lead to the roundabout located on Kanata Avenue, Stikine Drive and Keyrock Drive in Kanata Lakes.

SUBMITTED

To the editor: Do you see anything different about the above picture?

It does not look like there is anything amiss. But there is.

Take a close look.

Yes, that’s it, the signs to help our residents negotiate a roundabout on Kanata Avenue in Kanata Lakes. How considerate.

There are 27 signs, not including the ones on the approach to the roundabout.

Do the residents of this neighbourhood (Stikine Drive and Kanata Avenue) need more help driving round a roundabout than others in the City of Ottawa?

I think not. And probably most of our residents do not pay any attention to signs, that’s my guess. So why have them there at all? But pay you will, this is your tax dollar at work.

Twenty seven signs for one roundabout.

Think about it.

Mall to honour Jamie Hubley To the editor: In honor of Jamie Hubley the Hazeldean Mall will be hosting a variety of events in the month

of September to raise funds for the Youth Services Bureau.

We are looking to the community to help the mall create a very unique piece in honour of Jamie.

The Hazeldean Mall will be creating a custom charm that can be added to any silicone bracelet including the existing acceptance bracelets.

Charms will be sold in September during the events held at the Hazeldean Mall and through the Youth Services Bureau. The mall is asking the community to submit their ideas for the charm that best represents Jamie.

If you have an idea for a charm we are asking for a small sketch or picture of your idea to be uploaded to this events page.

A committee will decide on the best idea and have it professionally designed. All submissions need to be received by July 22.

Don’t forget to like our Facebook page to ensure you get all the details on our up-coming fundraising efforts from Sept.

14 to Oct. 13.

All designs will be considered by the committee for the custom charm, only the winning designer will be contacted in advance.

The general public will be notified of the winner at our kick-off event Sept. 14. The winning designer chosen will receive no monetary gain from their submission, the submission becomes the property of

Hazeldean Mall for the purpose of raising funds for a non-profit organization where 100 per cent of the proceeds will be donated to the chosen organization.

Don’t take vote for granted To the editor: I was reading an editorial published in the Manotick News about the upcoming by-elections. More specifically, it spoke about the small turnout of voters at by-elections compared to the last general provincial election, where, even then, less than half of the eligible voters took part in the election. And those were just those of us who can vote.

In the article, it said, “In a perfect world every Ontarian would take it as their duty to vote.”

It might be my duty to vote, but it isn’t my right. I was born in Canada, and I have Canadian citizenship. By all logic, I should be able to vote. So why can’t I? I’m not eighteen yet. I don’t have any more say in politics than the opinions I voice at the dinner table.

Having a missing demographic from the voting system creates a disturbing bias. For example, if teenagers could vote,

the majority would probably vote for someone who could lower admissions to universities or offer financial support for young adults applying for postsecondary educations. Elections are held every four years so, as it is, someone might not even be able to vote at all until they are twenty-two years old. By that time, they might be halfway through university already.

Furthermore, this previous school year was a struggle due to the putting students first act, an act that set off a chain reaction that ultimately resulted in the termination of most extracurricular activities throughout public schools for the year. A major player in this act was Dalton McGuinty. Did he ask students what they wanted? No, he didn t.

Consequently, it is partially because of McGuinty’s resignation that we are having these byelections at all.

I can’t vote at this election, but a lot of people can. If you do have the ability to vote, I encourage you to, not just in this election, but in all future elections. It is your right, your duty, and your responsibility. It is your country, after all.

Besides, if you don’t vote, and you could have, you don’t have the right to complain about so-and-so wasting your wellearned tax money.

Learning to speak with confidence Non-profit course teaches structure, poise jessica.cunha@metroland.com

News - Twelve years ago after being laid off from his job at Nortel Networks, Alan Quirt knew he would be facing a slew of interviews when looking for new employment.

Although he was used to giving presentations in front of people, he was always scared when he got up to speak. Wanting to give himself the best shot during his job search, he began to look around for something that would help improve his public speaking.

He found the Christopher Leadership Course, a non-profit registered charity that has been teaching public speaking in Canada for more than 50 years. He said the move changed his life. “I’d been doing presentations at Nortel for years but I was always scared,â€? he said. “After I lost my job at Nortel ‌ (I) decided that I needed to be able to speak better in interviews.â€?

They start off with really, really simple things ‌ The whole confidence thing allows you to take little bits at a time, a steady progression up.

LINDA POND GRADUATE, INSTRUCTOR OF CHRISTOPHER LEADERSHIP COURSE

He signed up, completed the 11week course, and now teaches others how to become confident speakers.

He has also completed a number of consulting jobs, including helping others apply for science tax credits. “I don’t think I could have done that without ‌ the course,â€? said Quirt. “The general confidence I learned was exactly what I needed. “It makes a huge difference when you learn you can structure your

talk. The course teaches you specific ways.�

Each Christopher Leadership Course has a minimum of 15 people, up to a maximum of 25 per group, with four to five instructors who are graduates of the course. Everyone, from the teachers to the president, is a volunteer. “We put out a quality course as cheaply as possible,� said Quirt. “The basic thing about it is for people to gain confidence in their speaking abilities.�

The class meets once a week over the course of 11 weeks, for three hours a night. Every student speaks twice in front of the group each week.

The class boasts a success rate close to 100 per cent, said Quirt. “People who get through the first two weeks almost always make it through to the end,� he said. “It’s not a miracle. People who speak broken English will still speak broken English, but they’re going to speak with better structure and less tendency to hum and haw. “There is an easy, fun way to speak confidently in public,� he said. “And it works.�

As an instructor, Quirt said he’s had the opportunity to see people “turn their life aroundâ€? with the newfound ability to speak confidently. “It opens up a range of new opportunities for them,â€? said the Beaverbrook resident. “I’ve seen a surprising number of people who have used the course as a springboard to create a personal business ‌ some of them have become authors.â€?

One that stands out in his mind was Linda Pond, who took the course in 2005.

NO ONE LISTENS

Working for a high-tech firm, one of Pond’s mentors came up to her one day and asked if she knew why no one listened to her.

He said to her: “It’s because you don’t have confidence in what you’re saying.� “I took that to heart,� said Pond, a Carleton Place resident. “I looked at different ways I could increase

Beaverbrook resident Alan Quirt signed up for the Christopher Leadership Course, a non-profit registered charity, to build his confidence in public speaking after losing his job. Now an instructor, Quirt said he’s had the opportunity to see people “turn their life around� with the newfound ability to speak confidently. my confidence.�

She Googled public speaking classes and found the Christopher Leadership Course. For good measure, she also signed up for singing lessons. “For me that meant just do something better,� she said. “It was an interesting time.�

The course is designed to help even the most shy people, she said. “They start off with really, really simple things: what’s your name and where did you live? Really simple things you could speak in front of people,â€? said Pond. “Each lesson gets a little longer ‌ The whole confidence thing allows you to take little bits at a time, a steady progression up.â€?

The hardest thing for Pond to get used to was not using notes; the Christopher Leadership Course teaches students how to speak without the aid of reminders, which can help speeches sound more natural and less forced. “You’re not up there reading anything,� she said. “You talk about what you know. You talk about things you’ve experienced in your life, which makes it really

easy to remember. “It teaches you the skills you need to build a good story and how to remember it without notes.�

She took her newfound confidence and became an entrepreneur – designing the Fab Light, a little LED that illuminates the inside of coolers, with her daughter. The experience gave Pond enough content to write and publish her first book: Top Secrets of a Girl Entrepreneur.

Two years ago she went on the Dragons’ Den, a television show where budding entrepreneurs pitch their inventions to a panel of business moguls. Although her taping never aired, it provided Pond with a great story. “It was a pretty fabulous experience. It was pretty fun,� she said. “If you have a good story and you’re able to put the message out there, that’s what it takes to be a good speaker.�

Pond took the advanced Christopher Leadership Course, which focuses on presentation skills, then became an instructor. “As a student and as an instructor it’s high energy and high fun,� she said.

Her path to confidence has provid-

LINDA POND ed her with ample opportunities to speak in public and she also consults for other inventors, helping them get their products to the market. “It’s a great ride; lots of fun,� said Pond. “This all came out of Christopher Leadership, so I say ‘Why not?’�

The next course will take place in September, with another in January. For more information, visit clcottawa.com.

News - The Crepeault children canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t bottle their enthusiasm for the familyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s sixth-annual fundraiser for local charities on Aug. 10.

The seven youths â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Jacob, 17, Hannah, 15, Sarah, 13, Simon, 11, Nathaniel, 9, Lily, 7, and Joseph, 14 months â&#x20AC;&#x201C; are part of the non-proďŹ t Kreative Kids who Kare. Every year, they collect empty wine, beer and liquor bottles to raise funds for the Childrenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Hospital of Eastern Ontario and the Kanata Food Cupboard. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s become a lot of fun to plan everything and organize it all. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a nice project to work on as a family,â&#x20AC;? said Hannah. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I just like â&#x20AC;Ś being able to give back to the community because itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s just done so much for me and my family. Just helping another family is awesome.â&#x20AC;?

What started as a small family project has quickly grown. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Our friends get excited about it every year,â&#x20AC;? said Hannah.

This year, the Crepeaults already have 15 vehicles lined up to help pick up donations, whereas last year they had seven. Volunteers go door to door in Bridlewood, asking people to donate any empty alcohol bottles. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a great way to give back to the community every year. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s become a tradition for us too, something we look forward to every summer,â&#x20AC;? said Jacob. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I just like the whole day in general. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a fun day to count down to and when it happens, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a great way to spend the day; (going) door to door to raise money.â&#x20AC;?

Since 2007, the Bridlewood family has raised $9,000 for CHEO and the food cupboard. In 2012, they collected $5,000 in cash and food donations; the food weighed in at 317 kilograms.

The idea for a bottle drive started when Wendy and her husband Kevin asked their children to come up with a plan to get involved and help out their local community. The family chose CHEO as the charity recipient because each child has needed treatment there at one time or another. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve all been there so much we just thought we could do something for them,â&#x20AC;? said Jacob in a previous interview.

Last year, all donations went to help the Kanata Food Cupboard, which had issued a plea to the community because its stores were depleting. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We chose the food cupboard last year because we read an article in the newspaper and they were saying there was a real need for food â&#x20AC;Ś They were running low,â&#x20AC;? said Hannah. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We just ďŹ gured it was a great cause and weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re giving back to our community.â&#x20AC;?

This year, donations will help both organizations.

Aside from the bottle drive, the Crepeaults also host a bake sale with â&#x20AC;&#x153;cookies, brownies, cupcakes â&#x20AC;&#x201C; all the yummy stuff,â&#x20AC;? said Hannah.

People are invited to drop off empty bottles, funds and non-perishable food items at the Crepeault house, located at 20 Redstone Ln., prior to the fundraiser, said Wendy. As well, the family will sign off on any volunteer hours for high school students. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d be happy with people helping out,â&#x20AC;? added Jacob.

The fundraising drive will kick off on Aug. 10 at 8 a.m. and run until there are no more bottles to drop off, said Wendy. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We never have an end time because it really depends on how many people (donate bottles),â&#x20AC;? she said.

News - The Kanata Chinese Seniors Support Centre is preparing to take part in an Asian-themed night market, to be held on Aug. 9 and 10.

Wen Jean Ho, founder of the support centre based in Kanata, said the inaugural Ottawa Summer Carnival event is an educational opportunity, as well as a chance for people to come out and have a little fun.

“It’s going to be very interesting,” said the Barrhaven resident. “It will be fun for the whole public.”

The mandate of the Kanata Chinese Seniors Support Centre is to introduce Asian culture, said Ho, and the group will have a booth at the evening festival. The activities at the booth, however, are a secret, she added.

A night market is a street bazaar, featuring vendors selling goods at reduced prices, operating outdoors in the evening.

“It’s going to be vibrant,” said Jezamine Lee Blomqvist, who volunteers with the Kanata Chinese support group and lives in Nepean. “The first thing is food (but) they sell everything … This will be a gastronomic experience.”

BAZAAR

The Ottawa Summer Carnival will be held in

the parking lot of the T&T Supermarket, located at 224 Hunt Club Rd., in south Ottawa. Organized by the Federation of Ottawa Chinese Canadian Organizations, an umbrella association of more than 35 Chinese groups across the city, the free event will feature Asian street foods, entertainment, fun and games, a car show, contests, performances and merchandise vendors.

Jimmy Wen, manager of T&T, said he’s excited to be part of the first Ottawa Summer Carnival in the city, having seen the events take place in Toronto, and around the world.

“It’s very popular in Asian countries and areas,” said the Barrhaven resident. “The people come out and enjoy the outdoor culinary experience.”

Some street foods that will be available include barbecue lamb kebob, stinky tofu (which is salty and spicy but has a distinct smell, said Wen), bubble tea and ice smoothies.

Wen said he’s expecting around 20 food booths, more than 60 vendors in total, and around 10,000 people at the night bazaar.

It’s a chance for people “to learn about different cultural things and enjoy the celebration,” said Yoyo Tsai, with T&T. “We just want to give them more different, new things to try.”

The carnival takes place on Aug. 9 from 6 p.m. to midnight and Aug. 10 from 4 p.m. to midnight.

Dumpling extravaganza attracts both young and old Kanata Chinese Seniors Support Centre

Community - A Dumpling Extravaganza hosted by the Kanata Chinese Seniors Support Centre attracted both young and old. The fund-raising event was held on June 22 at the Glen Cairn United Church at 140 Abbeyhill Dr. Many families with young children in tow turned up to support the event.

The dumplings and spring rolls were freshly made by the Chinese seniors in the church kitchen. These delicacies, which enjoyed brisk sales, are a hot favorite among Canadians.

A special highlight of the evening was a dumpling-making course taught by the Chinese seniors.

The course received significant response from the public who signed up in advance to learn the techniques of making dumplings. The youngest among them was nine-year old Anna

Blomqvist, a Grade 3 pupil of Regina Street Public School. She took her lesson very enthusiastically and was totally engrossed in learning the art, much to the amusement of her instructors and the other students.

Interactive game stalls were also set up to keep the children entertained. One of the seniors was also on hand to show the children how to fold objects from paper balls to scarecrows with colored paper.

The repertoire of traditional Chinese songs and dances performed by the various Chinese troupes had everyone enthralled.

Aboriginal students empowered with green energy program Jennifer McIntosh jennifer.mcintosh@metroland.com

News - Five aboriginal students got empowered at Algonquin College during a four-day course between July 9 to 13.

The students hail from Golden Lake in Renfrew County and Curve Lake, Ont – about 25 kilometres northeast of Peterborough. They were chosen by their prospective band councils.

Denyse Diakun, director of the college’s workforce and professional development department at Algonquin, said the aim is to teach students about green energy technology and advocacy.

“It’s a partnership between the First Nation’s communities, Hydro One and the college,” she said. “Hydro One is working to diversify their workforce.”

After four days of instruc-

go home and present what they learned to their peers. They will also be able to perform home energy audits, Diakun said.

Claude Lloyd led the instruction, teaching students about energy-saving technology and related careers.

Classes were eight hours a day for the four-day duration of the workshop. The five students were a mix of high school and mature students and were paid for their time to attend the course.

Sébastian Blais, from the college’s physical resources department, led the tour, giving the students a chance to look at the living lab and apply what they had learned in the first two days of classes.

First stop was the biowall, a five-storey wall made up of

Sébastian Blais, from the college’s physical resource department, shows off the solar panels on the roof of Algonquin College’s Centre for Construction Excellence.

Blais gave five students in the college’s green energy advocacy program a tour on July 11. tion, which included a behindthe-scenes tour of the college’s

Centre for Construction Excellence, students were asked to

living plants that filter the air, providing oxygen to the atrium space and all five connected floors. Then they made their way up to the roof where they looked in at the college’s diesel powered generator, the boilers, so efficient that they only come on when the temperature outside dips below -20 degrees Celsius. Next stop was to look at the solar panels, which heat all of the water in the building.

The centre also boasts a living roof, covered in grass and plants rather than asphalt.

“If you look at this roof in isolation, it’s not a big deal,” Lloyd said. “But if you think about all the roofs in the city made of asphalt and heating up and wasting rain water, replacing them would make a huge difference.”

Transient tramps always welcome at dinner table MARY COOK Mary Cookâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Memories something to eat: we knew why they were there. Mother would look them over and if they were clean, having taken a wash in the Bonnechere River before coming up the hill, they were invited in. If they looked like they needed a hand-scrub, Mother would take out a wash basin of warm soapy water, put it on the back stoop and told them to come in when they had washed up.

The brothers would squeeze together on the bench and make room for the tramp and Mother would laden a plate full of food. I would watch mesmerized as the food vanished as if they hadnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t eaten in days â&#x20AC;&#x201C; there was a good chance they hadnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t.

Father would try to make conversation, but the tramps said little. We five children clammed up as if we had lost our tongues. I wanted to know

where they had come from and how they had become tramps, but of course I too sat mute while the food disappeared.

As quickly as they came, they spent just enough time to cram in their heaping plates of food and then they stood and were ready to head out again.

Mother would tell them to sit a spell and we always knew what she was going to do because it never varied all the time we lived through those Depression years.

She would take a brown paper bag off the rack at the back door. Then she would go to the bake table and make thick sandwiches of whatever meat we had had for dinner. Always she would tuck in cookies or a big piece of pie and then she would go to the ice box and with the ice pick would chip off big slivers of ice and put them into a glass jar that at one

Just as he finished tucking into his second piece of pie, he asked Father for a job. He talked more than any other tramp we had ever fed. He was what was called a â&#x20AC;&#x153;home boy.â&#x20AC;? He came from England as a 12 year old, he said, from an orphanage. He was sent to a farm in the Ottawa Valley, where he suffered from abuse and endless hours of labour.

in the track. Father said this was where they would jump on the train and go off to goodness knows where.

We never saw the same tramp twice. They came in all shapes and sizes, and all ages.

Some of them, I thought, were no more than boys, young like my three brothers. I would wonder why they were tramps, and my brothers werenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t.

Then one day I learned at least a partial answer to that question.

Often I would see the tramp wipe his eyes with the back of his hand, as he thanked Mother and tucked the bulging paper bag into the sack he carried on the end of a short pole resting on his shoulder. He would go as quietly as he came, out the back door and down the hill, making his way to the railroad tracks. I knew he would be waiting until the next freight train rounded the corner at the very back of the farm. It would slow down to handle the curve

ather was sure there was a hidden sign nailed to a tree, only visible to the countless tramps who rode the rails that said, â&#x20AC;&#x153;Jump here: good food up the hill.â&#x20AC;?

Deep in the heart of the Depression years, almost as if they were put there to remind us there was someone in worse shape than we were, tramps walked the back roads, rode the freight trains and survived by begging for their next meal.

Countless numbers found their way to our kitchen door, always around dinner time, looking for something to eat.

They frightened me, although Father said they were harmless, and I was glad that if they did surface at night, we never saw them. My brothers were sure they often came up over the West Hill and slept in the barn where they were warm and away from the outdoor elements.

They seemed to know on the farm the big meal was at the noon hour. They also seemed to know when the family was all seated at the table, because that was when we would hear the gentle knock on the door.

Crimes against persons rate decreases in Kanata Continued from page 1

â&#x20AC;&#x153;I also believe the officers on bikes is an extremely effective program and the increased charges are a result of more officers in the parks and pathways that weave through our community,â&#x20AC;? said Hubley.

Total calls for service decreased by four per cent in both Kanata wards, as well as citywide. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I believe the increase in the reduction in calls but increase in charges is a result of excellent police work by the high calibre of officers we have in the west division,â&#x20AC;? said Hubley.

Kanata North saw a decrease of 24 per cent in crimes against the person, with 81 total offences in 2012: â&#x20AC;˘ Robbery: three incidents, 73 per cent decrease â&#x20AC;˘ Assaults, including sexual assaults: 54 incidents, 17 per cent decrease â&#x20AC;˘ Uttering threats or intimidation: 11 incidents, 21 per cent decrease â&#x20AC;&#x153;Things we donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t get a lot of are really serious crimes like attacking of people,â&#x20AC;? said Wilkinson. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We have people get drunk but other than that, the community is pretty law abiding.â&#x20AC;?

She said residents need to work together to keep crime low. â&#x20AC;&#x153;If you donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t have a Neighbourhood Watch on your street, consider getting one going,â&#x20AC;? said Wilkinson. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s when youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re watching out for each other you have the most amount of safety. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re all in this together in the community.â&#x20AC;?

KANATA SOUTH

Uttering threats or intimidation was the only offence in the category of crimes against the person to see an increase in Kanata South. The number of crimes rose by 108 per cent, with 25 incidents, up from 12 in 2011. â&#x20AC;&#x153;One particular area that requires improvement is the uttering of threats or intimidation,â&#x20AC;? said Kanata South Coun. Allan Hubley, in his community newsletter. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We must work together as a community to be better.â&#x20AC;?

In total, crimes against the person decreased by 13 per cent, with 130 total offences: â&#x20AC;˘ Attempted murder: zero incidents, 100 per cent decrease â&#x20AC;˘ Robbery: 16 incidents, 33 per cent decrease â&#x20AC;˘ Assaults, including sexual assaults: 64 incidents, 16 per cent decrease â&#x20AC;&#x153;Kanata South remained murder free for the second straight year, and we are also experiencing decreases in incidents of attempted murder, robbery, assault, and Criminal Code traffic offences,â&#x20AC;? said Hubley in the newsletter.

A total of 913 property crimes were committed in Kanata South, an increase of 10 per cent: â&#x20AC;˘ Arson: nine incidents, 125 per cent increase â&#x20AC;˘ Fraud: 117 incidents, 63 per cent increase â&#x20AC;˘ Thefts from vehicles: 39 incidents, 11 per cent increase â&#x20AC;˘ Break and enter: 69 incidents, 19 per cent decrease

The population in Kanata South rose to 45,540 in 2012, up from 45,096 the previous year. Total calls for services however, decreased in 2012. Police received a total of 8,846 calls, down from 8,885 in 2011. â&#x20AC;&#x153;There is a shift towards proactive policing when the situation allows for the move and I appreciate the work our officers do to prevent crime and to get to know our community,â&#x20AC;? said Hubley. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Their dedication to service is what keeps our community safe and secure so I hope residents will join me in thanking each officer for their efforts.â&#x20AC;?

TRAFFIC OFFENCES

Criminal Code traffic offences increased by two per cent overall in north Kanata, while dropping by four per cent in the south ward.

Kanata North saw 20 offences for impaired operation of vehicles, the same as in 2011, while the number rose to 30 in Kanata South, up from 26 the previous year.

Citywide, the number rose by two per cent, with 675 impaired driving offences in 2012 versus 660 in 2011.

Speeding cars and aggressive driving were the top concerns in both wards, according to the 2012 public survey results released by police, with 65 per cent in the south and 60 per cent in the north labelling it as the biggest issue. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s been the biggest concern for most wards,â&#x20AC;? said Wilkinson.

The monster fish that was nearly lunch

SERVING KANATA NORTH

Lifestyle - Get the kids out of the river, there’s a monster lurking.

Steven Grail is no stranger to catching big fish. With 50-plus years of fishing in and around the Ottawa, Grail’s caught beauties: dozens of muskie, more pike, and a bunch of bass. One a super fatty. You name it and he’s landed it. He’s even nabbed barracuda in Mexico – they turn every colour of the rainbow when you

The motion to remove all locations except the Raceway provided a huge advantage to a single business, horse racing, which is struggling. However, both horse racing and hockey are in need of additional funds to be solvent.

I’m not an advocate for casinos, but I am an advocate for fairness and this wasn’t fair. I’ve spoken with both parties and attended a public session at the Raceway on transition funding and future provincial support for the horse racing industry. I’ve also met with the Mayor’s Chief of Staff and many of my colleagues to try to work out a solution that does not pit one business against others. I’ve spoken with the President of the OLG and Provincial MPPs about the possibility of having one casino operation with parts at two locations.

I have done as much as I can to ensure a fair and open bidding process.

Business is an important part of the Ottawa economy. The City needs to demonstrate that it treats all businesses fairly and doesn’t unilaterally choose one over others. I hope that the decision, taken after writing this column, is an amended motion that puts fairness first.

By the time you read this column, City Council will have dealt with a motion from the Mayor which recommends that the only location for a future casino is the Rideau Carleton Raceway. Considering that last year Council passed a motion requesting Ontario Lottery and Gaming (OLG), who do the procurement for casinos, have an open competition - this motion simply requesting that any bid at the Raceway be considered caused me a lot of concern. Proponents were not to discuss their submissions during this competition so it is not known how many were planning to make a submission. We soon heard from the Ottawa Senators that they had been working on one for more than a year and suddenly had the ground taken out from under them.

SPEEDING AND TRAFFIC

A Traffic Management Study is just getting underway for the Knudson Drive area. A Public Advisory Committee has been set up to work with City staff in analyzing the speeding along Knudson and develop recommendations to address it. A public meeting will be held later this year once preliminary information has been collected and analyzed.

Please note the closure of the on-ramp going west from March Rd. onto 417 has been moved to July 26th and will be in effect for approximately 12 weeks.

It can give you up to 3rd degree burns or even blind you! If you come in contact wash your skin immediately. If it gets in your eyes, rinse them and get immediate medical help. It is a serious plant and not to be ignored.

pull them out – and other beasts in other countries. He knows fishing.

So when on May 31 at around 8 p.m. as the light began to fade, he didn’t think much at first of the jiggling on his 78-inch rod with 12pound test line. But what transpired over the course of the next hour, in four-foot water, proved to be his finest hour on the Ottawa.

It happened at a cottage not too far from his hometown of Arnprior. Using a five-inch Rapala lure with no leader, Grail said the pike he caught jumped out of the water about 10 times, sometimes clearing it by four feet. It ran several times for more than 200 feet.

“It was the best fight I’ve ever had in my life,” he said of the pike that weighed in at between 30 and 40 pounds. “I put him back. I already have a pike on my wall.”

He knows it wasn’t a muskie. The stubbed nose, brown in colour, characteristic pores – it all pointed to a northerner.

He beached it after 9 p.m. and because the mosquitoes were so bad he tied it to part of the dock until morning.

This is where the story gets really interesting.

He returned in daylight to check out the prisoner.

“It was snapping at me like an alligator,” he said. “When its mouth opened you could easily drop a soccer ball into it.”

That’s when he noticed, while struggling to lift the thing out of the water - the fish slapping the water like a beaver’s tail - that it had a bite mark down near its tail. The teeth marks formed a semi circle eight inches wide. Eight.

Something out there tried to eat a 35-pound pike. Now that’s nasty.

R0012179891

Many of our streets, particularly the collector roads within communities, have too many people travelling well over the speed limit. Two activities are now underway in Kanata North with the objective of making these streets safer by slowing traffic. Halton Terrace is one of 12 streets across the City where flexible plastic speed limit signs, 1.2 metres high will be installed down the middle of the street, approximately 100 metres apart. This is a seasonal installation until November, after which their effectiveness will be analyzed. The technique has been used successfully in Montreal, where reduced incidents of speeding were recorded in participating neighbourhoods.

any other fish. His is more on the big picture level. It’s about the topography of one of his favourite spots to dip a canoe in the river.

A hidden gem along the mighty Ottawa is a conservation area known as Morris Island. Located near the village of Fitzroy Harbour, this 47 hectare site consists of forested woodlands and wetlands that will appeal to nature enthusiasts of all ages.

Banks, now a journalism instructor at Algonquin College, recalls dipping a canoe in a spot he calls Snye River, or the South Ottawa. This is back in 1984 before he was a reporter at the Arnprior Chronicle-Guide and while the editor of Almonte’s newspaper.

“I happened to be the president of the Almonte Fish and Game Club at the time,” he said. “I went with (a) good reader-friend of mine, Neil MacArthur. Very few people knew about this place. We caught about 30 large mouth bass that day. We ran out of room on our stringer.”

The two caught progressively larger fish as the day wore on. They used smallish silver-and-black lures.

Little guys were released and bigger ones gilled to the stringer. But for Banks, the fishing was the sideshow.

He was more struck and impressed by the geography and wildlife. It was the first time he saw a gar pike, sunning itself in shallow water as they are prone to do. He was even spooked by a huge water snake.

Regal limestone, the lazy river meandering around bends, the stately trees: it was a memory he kept for many years until his return a five summers ago.

Banks, who lives in Osgoode, said the river has grown in over the years and the water’s a little lower, but remains a stunningly beautiful place.

Father told him there was no money for a hired man and besides, we had three strapping boys to do the chores.

But the tramp persevered. He told Father if he could sleep in the barn and have three meals a day and a flat-fifty of cigarettes every Saturday night, he would work for nothing.

That was how one of those tramps who rode the rails and depended on the generosity of others, became our hired man. He really became a mem-

ber of the family and I would often see Father slip the man, who was really a boy, a dollar when he could spare it.

The tramps were a symbol of that era. We knew not where they had come from or where they were going.

It mattered little what time of year it was. Winter or summer, almost daily we could count on seeing a tramp coming up over the West Hill. They were never turned away. They came hungry and they left with full bellies and enough food to take them to the next stop on their endless journey.

Bridgetâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Army is on the march Six-year-old with Stage IV Wilmâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s tumor backed up by community Patricia Leboeuf pleboeuf@metroland.com

News - When six-year-old Bridget Rose Zavitske smiles, she lights up the room.

Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a contagious grin, belying her sweet and loving nature to those around her.

She loves to dance, to draw, to play hockey and soccer. She loves animals of all types, her friends and the colour red.

She just graduated senior kindergarten at Stonecrest Elementary in West Carleton where her favorite subject is gym.

And yet she manages to accomplish it all with Stage IV Wilmâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s tumor. This cancer typically occurs in young children

and effects the kidneys. It has cost Bridget her left kidney. It has also spread to her lungs and lymph nodes.

It spread quickly.

On June 17, the family rushed to CHEOâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s emergency room and three days and a whirlwind of tests later, Bridget was on the operating table.

Two weeks after that, she started chemotherapy and radiation. â&#x20AC;&#x153;She has been pretty sick from that,â&#x20AC;? said her mother Christy McNeely Zavitske. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We are hoping the sickness doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t last. We hear the first few weeks of chemo are the worst.â&#x20AC;?

Bridget doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t let her illness doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t define her.

â&#x20AC;&#x153;A week from her surgery date she was at her soccer game cheering on her team,â&#x20AC;? said McNeely Zavitske. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I was stressing out making sure she sat still.â&#x20AC;?

Her strength and tenacity has allowed her to return to her home in Dunrobin much sooner than doctors anticipated.

This is to everybodyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s relief.

Her siblings, Maddy, 16, Stella, 7, and Miller, 2-and-ahalf, were extremely concerned and were acutely anxious to see the youngest daughter home.

They were overjoyed to have her back. The family is very close. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We come from very close families,â&#x20AC;? said McNeely Zavitske. â&#x20AC;&#x153;My family is from Carleton Place and Daveâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s (Bridgetâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s father) is from Renfrew.â&#x20AC;?

This closeness has been demonstrated by their communityâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s unwavering support.

friends, family, random strangers and local businesses have come out of the woodwork to give their support. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I honestly canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t believe the support we have received from family, friends and total strangers,â&#x20AC;? said Bridgetâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s mother.

Theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve organized a food drive, school and community groups have sent the family monetary gifts as well as presents for Bridget.

Family friend Jennifer Facchin has created a team of runners, named Bridgetâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Brigades, who will be running 100 kilometres from Ottawa to Montebello for the Relay to End Kids Cancer on Oct. 5. Her goal is to raise $500 for national pediatric oncology research initiatives at CHEO. More initiatives are coming. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I have a group of friends who have started a group called Bridgetâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Worker Bees,â&#x20AC;? said McNeely Zavitske. â&#x20AC;&#x153;They have some great ideas: an evening gala, a change and bottle drive, etc. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m hoping they can also donate money to local cancer organizations as I feel we have been so blessed with the amount of support we have been receiving,â&#x20AC;? she added. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Everyone is

Six-year-old Bridget Rose Zavitske receives her cancer treatment at CHEO in Ottawa. Despite losing a kidney, she remains in high spirits and enjoys the hospital playroom.

Supporters from many communities are behind her. really working hard out there.â&#x20AC;?

There is a tough journey ahead for Bridget and her family, but knowing she has her own army helps tremendously. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We have already received so much, much more than I would have ever imagined,â&#x20AC;? said McNeely Zavitske. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I would just like everyone to keep thinking

More needs to be done for youth jobs: labour minister brier.dodge@metroland.com

EMC news - Local businesspeople, agencies, politicians and several students came together on July 3 to discuss youth employment – or a lack thereof.

Kaylee Dufresne, a 15-year-old St. Peter High School student, said she’s applied for jobs everywhere she can, but hadn’t been able to get a summer position.

She said many jobs require employees to be 16, and because she doesn’t have a driver’s licence, she’s limited in where she can apply.

“There’s more than 100 people applying for a job, so it’s about connections,” she said, speaking during the roundtable session.

The discussion included provincial Labour Minister Yasir Naqvi, Minister of Economic Development, Trade

and Employment, Eric Hoskins, and Ottawa-Orléans MPP Phil McNeely.

“We’re getting almost a failing grade, collectively, in supporting these young individuals,” Hoskins said. “We need to keep creating those good old-fashioned jobs.”

Hoskins also spoke about the German model for youth employment, where youth have a heavy emphasis on apprenticeships and work experience through all their educational process.

While he doesn’t think adapting the full German model is the solution, his point was that not enough is being done to expose youth to job opportunities and work experience.

In Orléans, the primary job sector is retail. Orléans Chamber of Commerce executive director Jamie Kwong said she notices a younger demographic working in retail and food services in the community than

YASIR NAQVI other parts of the city.

Kwong said that programs that give grants or incentives for employers to hire youth go a long way. The chamber currently has a summer student, which they wouldn’t have been

common mistakes can include putting youth in environments where they are uncomfortable, like a formal wine and cheese, and holding an event at a location not easily accessible by public transportation, roundtable speakers said.

“We’re not going to solve the problem overnight,” Hoskins said.

“So I’d encourage you to talk to both Yasir (Naqvi) and Phil (McNeely).

You have an opportunity to continue to provide advice and ideas.”

able to hire without a grant.

“Most of our business community is older, so we don’t hear the feedback from youth,” Kwong said, adding that focus needs to broaden from summer jobs for students returning to post-secondary education and into more flexible opportunities, such as in the trades.

“It leaves out a huge group of youth who need something year round,” she said. “Especially for marginalized youth; they might not be able to afford post-secondary education, but staying home and taking courses in trades wouldn’t qualify them for (grant-assisted summer jobs).”

Speakers from various organizations and groups, such as the YMCA, said that a more holistic approach is needed with marginalized youth, with factors like providing appropriate clothing and Internet access.

Nepean’s Sandra Oh returns home to receive key to the city Brier Dodge brier.dodge@metroland.com

News - Sandra Oh, known for playing Dr. Christina Yang on the television show Grey’s Anatomy, returned home on July 8 to accept the key to the city.

Oh grew up in Nepean, and got an early start acting at Knoxdale Public School and Sir Robert Borden High School.

Oh was the opposite of the stern character television fans are used to seeing, as she laughed, smiled and several times, wiped tears from her eyes as she accepted the key at city hall. Her family, including her parents, who still live in Nepean, and siblings all sat with the star at the city hall presentation.

Besides Grey’s Anatomy, Oh has been in many independent films, and won two Genie Awards and a Golden Globe. Before she was presented with the key to the city, the audience watched a highlight reel of her work from when she received her star on Canada’s Walk of Fame in 2011.

She dedicated a large part of her speech to her two young nieces, who grinned ear to ear when their aunt spoke to them about living with good values.

“You can own the key to the city, to whatever city you live in, if you are responsible for a life well lived,”

Oh said. “And I wish that for the both of you.”

Oh’s first performance was in a play called the Canada Goose at Knoxdale Public School.

“And then going along Greenbank to SRB, a huge part of my entire time in high school was the Canada Improv Games,” she said. “I did so much of my training and acting in those formative years from Grade 9 to 13. I can’t tell you how much that training affected my career, so deeply.”

She also danced at Nepean’s Les Petits Ballets throughout her youth.

Many of her teachers and friends returned to city hall to see her accept the key. She stopped to point out several teachers, friends, and even her first boyfriend sitting in the crowd.

At one point, the current Sir Robert Borden principal came out to present Oh with a painted ceiling tile.

As class president, Oh had promised advocating for painted ceiling tiles as a part of her campaign speech, something that didn’t happen during her year term as head girl.

Oh said her parents, Joon-Soo and Young-Nam Oh, who immigrated to Ottawa from Korea, are well-respected in Ottawa’s Korean community.

While they’ve come to many award shows with her, she said getting the key was special because it was one of the first times her entire

“I have shamelessly brought

my parents to almost every award show,” she said. “But this is very different. My entire family is here, and

the entire community I grew up with is here. These are people who have watched me grow up.”

Lead actress for Arms and the Man, Pippa Leslie, said working with the students has been great. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s been great. I hope we can teach them lots of things,â&#x20AC;? Leslie said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I just wish there was this kind of opportunity when I was in school.â&#x20AC;?

Spencer said Leslie and the other actors and stage hands have been great at making this program a great experience for her and the other students.

Arts - Theatre under the stars welcomes audience members to take part in a farce this summer as Odyssey Theatre brings one of George Bernard Shawâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s plays outdoors for the first time.

Odyssey will present Shawâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Arms and the Man beginning July 25 at Strathcona Park. According the playâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s director, Andy Massingham, this will be the first time one of Shawâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s plays will be performed outside. It will also feature actors in masks â&#x20AC;&#x201C; something Odyssey Theatre is known for. There will be little to no set, drawing the audience into the words and actions of the play. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s going to be like a dream and the audience will see that life is a farce,â&#x20AC;? Massingham said.

The director added the costumes will be very eye-catching along with the masks and other actors in heavy makeup. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s going to feel like you are looking at a painting,â&#x20AC;? he said.

Dubbed an anti-romantic comedy, Shawâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s play explores love, war and social status. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s possibly the funniest anti-romantic comedy you can see,â&#x20AC;? Massingham said.

Originally set in 1885, Massingham said he has set the play in a more contemporary setting. The company said they are aiming to attract both Shaw enthusiasts as well as anyone else who may be walking through the park. â&#x20AC;&#x153;People are going to find itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s more than a play. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a bit of an event and really the play starts from the moment people entre the park,â&#x20AC;? Massingham said.

This year the company will also be offering indoor matinees -- a first for the company, which said owing to the unpredictability of weather and for the comfort of some long-time patrons, matinees will take place at Academic Hall Theatre, at the University of Ottawa with performances starting at 2 p.m. on Thursdays and Sundays.

The performance has got a few helping hands this season as eight high school students are participat-

ing in the companyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s youth apprenticeship program. The students get to experience a professional theatre company first hand. From stage directing, administration, acting and front of the house experience, these youth get the opportunity to learn as much as they can from Odyssey during the summer months.

The program also offers students the opportunity to collect volunteer hours. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s great, at the end of the summer I might have at least 100 hours,â&#x20AC;? said ClĂŠa Spencer, one of the youth apprentices.

She added the hours are a bonus, but really itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s the experience she canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t get enough of.

For Massingham he said the experience the students is much more educational than simply sitting in a classroom. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s the ultimate summer camp,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;They each have their own

Michelle Nel Chow, centre, with her children Avery, 14, left, and Nolan, 5. Nel Chow recently wrote a book called To Be a Nut or Not to help children with nut allergies.

Nuts about nuts for Ottawa mom Brier Dodge brier.dodge@metroland.com

News - Whether itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s peanuts, walnuts, almonds, pecans or pistachios, Michelle Nel Chow needs to watch out.

Her five-year-old son, Nolan, suffers life-threatening allergies to multiple foods, including peanuts and tree nuts.

And while Nel Chow is well versed in what Nolan can and canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t eat, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s sometimes hard to explain to babysitters, teachers or grandparents. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s especially hard because foods with the peanut-free logo arenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t automatically ok for Nolan because they can still contain tree nuts.

She decided to write a series of books for kids about allergies, and recently released To Be a Nut or Not, the first in the planned series. Sheâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s already written several articles about living with life-threatening allergies for Allergic Living Magazine. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I wanted creative, completely offthe-wall ways to bring up (allergies),â&#x20AC;?

Nel Chow said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;There are many products that have a peanut-free logo, but they contain tree nuts. But a caregiver or a grandparent might assume its safe â&#x20AC;&#x201C; but itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not.â&#x20AC;?

While Nolan has had allergies since infancy, Nel Chow said the books can help parents of children who have to be taught what foods they can and

canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t eat. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a safe way for kids with allergies to learn what to avoid,â&#x20AC;? she said.

She hopes that teachers will be able to use it as a resource, and has sent copies of the book to different organizations that distribute or promote allergy resources.

Nel Chow said she would eventually like to see the book sold as an educational resource for elementary school libraries and classrooms.

She went into her sonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s OrlĂŠans elementary school to read the book to his classmates, and she said it started a good discussion about what nuts heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s allergic to, and other friends and siblings with allergies. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It opens up a conversation, and from there the conversation grows,â&#x20AC;?

Nel Chow said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Questions like, â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;What about coconuts?â&#x20AC;&#x2122; And funny enough, coconuts arenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t a nut.â&#x20AC;?

She got the idea for the book some time ago, but had difficulty finding a publisher. She was able to sync up with another â&#x20AC;&#x153;allergy mom,â&#x20AC;? an illustrator from the United States, who drew all the pictures for the book.

They self-published the book and are distributing it through www.lulu. com. Nel Chow said by the end of July, it will be available on Amazon. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It will help empower kids,â&#x20AC;? she said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I know it might take a while, but I hope (the books) get where they need to be.â&#x20AC;?

Country fest headliners make Greely debut Emma Jackson emma.jackson@metroland.com

Arts - The sixth annual Greely Legion Country Music Festival promises another toe-tappin, foot-stompin weekend of music and merriment beginning July 26.

This year’s outdoor festival, which runs Friday, July 26 to Sunday, July 28, will welcome Douglas, Ont., band The Douglas Connection to headline on Saturday night – their first performance inside Ottawa proper.

“They’ve been at the Shawville festival, but not as far east as Ottawa,” said organizer Linda Wyman. “This is some-

thing new in Ottawa, a new entertainment for us.”

Other headliners include Howard Hayes, Lauren Hall and Roger Damphousse, and WRD, an Ottawa-area old-time country band that includes local legend Wilf Arsenault. The festival will also welcome the McWilliams Boys from Navan – a set of six brothers under the age of 12 who will lead the audience in song and step dance. More than 15 performers, bands and country acts will take the stage over the weekend, beginning at 7:30 p.m. on Friday with a performance from WRD. “There’s a good variety,” Wyman said. “There’s a lot

of old time music, but there’s some gospel, too – the Gallagher family will be there. We haven’t ventured far from what we’re doing.”

Rough camping on the legion’s large property at 8021 Mitch Owens Rd. will open by July 24, and meals will be available at the legion for a nominal cost beginning on Saturday

All proceeds will be donated to the Winchester District Memorial Hospital. Wyman said the legion hopes to beat last year’s $4,000 donation.

Lifestyle - This makes a terrific warm, gluten- and dairyfree meal. To save time, prepare the vegetables while the beef marinates.

Preparation time: 30 minutes. Marinating time: 15 minutes. Cooking time: 20 minutes. Serves four.

INGREDIENTS

• 50 ml (1/4 cup) tamari or soy sauce • 25 ml (2 tbsp) liquid honey • 15 ml (1 tbsp) sesame oil • 4 cloves garlic, crushed • 5 ml (1 tsp) hot chili sauce (such as sriracha) • 2 ml (1/2 tsp) finely grated ginger root • 250 g (8 oz) thinly sliced deli-cooked beef • 125 g (4 oz) thin vermicelli rice noodles • 15 ml (1 tbsp) vegetable oil • 750 ml (3 cups) thinly sliced mushrooms • 375 ml (1 1/2 cups) thinly sliced sweet red pepper

• 4 green onions, sliced • 4 large leaves of lettuce • 15 ml (1 tbsp) toasted sesame seeds • 50 ml (1/4 cup) fresh coriander leaves (optional)

PREPARATION

In a bowl, mix together the tamari sauce, honey, sesame oil, garlic, hot chili sauce and ginger root. Cut the beef slices into one-centimetre (1/2-inch)

wide strips and stir them into the marinade. Let the marinating beef stand at room temperature for 15 minutes.

Meanwhile, cook the vermicelli according to the package directions and drain well.

Measure out 1 litre (4 cups) of vermicelli and set aside.

In a large non-stick skillet, heat the vegetable oil over medium-high heat. Cook the mushrooms, red pepper and half of the green onions in the skillet, stirring, for three to five minutes or until mushrooms are golden.

Drain the marinade from the beef and add it to the skillet, cooking for one-to-two minutes or just until no liquid remains.

To serve, place a lettuce leaf on each plate and top each with 250 ml (1 cup) vermicelli, then one-quarter of the meat mixture. Garnish with the remaining green onions, sesame seeds and coriander, if it is being used.

Ottawa man chases nation’s history to the high Arctic Researcher tracing Canadian Arctic Expedition 100 years later Emma Jackson emma.jackson@metroland.com

News – One hundred years ago, a large team of scientists and adventurers were preparing for a journey of a lifetime to Canada’s high Arctic to document the landscape, wildlife and culture of the Far North.

The Canadian Arctic Expedition, launched in 1913, would come to span five long years of setbacks, human loss and scientific breakthrough and become one of the greatest, largely untold adventures in Canadian history.

It’s also a history Metcalfe resident David Gray hopes to bring back to life.

The independent researcher, writer and filmmaker has spent much of his professional life documenting Canada’s northern regions.

Despite his home base in

rural Ottawa, hardly a year has gone by without a trip to the Arctic since he first spent 11 months on Bathurst Island in 1968.

On July 17, Gray once again took to the north in an attempt to finally locate, survey and document the camps and locations of the original expedition a century ago.

“It’s an exciting opportunity to bring this site back to life, in a way,” Gray said, referring to the main site near Sachs Harbour, N.W.T., 500 kilometres northeast of Inuvik.

“Even for the local people, they know it’s historic, they know it’s significant, but they can’t go back and say ‘This is where my grandfather put his tent’ because no one has mapped it out.”

The six-person team will fly into Sachs Harbour on the southwest shore of Banks Island on July 17.

From there they can easily access the expedition’s main headquarters west of the town, where they will spend a week documenting the site’s hut foundations and remnants of the schooner Mary Sachs.

From there the team will board a motorized sailboat Bernard Explorer captained

by Bob Bernard, great-greatnephew of expedition member Peter Bernard. They will head due north to explore the western shore of Banks Island looking for any sign of Bernard, who was lost in the winter of 1916.

The local people ... know it’s historic, they know it’s significant, but they can’t go back and say ‘This is where my grandfather put his tent’ because no one has mapped it out.

DAVID GRAY

The last sign of his trail was found at the northwest tip of the island and Gray said it’s unlikely he ever turned south toward the safety of fellow expedition member Natkusiak’s camp in the nearby Gore Islands.

At the time, Bernard was

Finding those bags – and anything still intact inside them - would be a major windfall.

“The most likely scenario is he went through the ice and there won’t be anything to find,” Gray said. “But given the ocean currents ... stuff could be washed up on

the shores at any time. It’s a shot in the dark. It’s a needle in a haystack, but if you don’t look you don’t find.”

From there the ship will make its way south along the shoreline to document another 10 sites, including Natkusiak’s camp. The crew should return home by the end of August.

The expedition will produce two documentary films, a historical record of Sachs Harbour to be used as a tourism guide, and could someday lead to a book.

Of course like many scientific endeavours, Gray said funding continues to be a barrier.

See ARCTIC, page 45

Despite some indication that federal money would be set aside to commemorate the expedition’s 100th anniversary, Gray gave up trying to squeeze blood from a stone several months ago and turned instead to a crowdfunding campaign.

The team needs about $20,000 to cover the trip’s bare bone expenses, which don’t include individual travel costs incurred by the team members as well as their free labour.

“It’s a people expedition,” Gray said.

He said many people connected to the expedition, the team members or who have an interest in the north have already come forward with generous donations.

Corporate sponsorships and donations from people not otherwise connected to the project are also starting to come forward.

“Everybody’s pulling together,” he said.

And putting off the expedition until more funds can be raised is hardly an option. As global warming takes its toll on the region, time is of the essence.

“Now that there isn’t ice

protection in the summer months, the erosion rate is increasing dramatically,” Gray said, noting that as much as one metre of shoreline is eaten away every two years. That erosion is taking history with it. “Every storm, every high tide, artifacts are lost.”

Donors can still support the expedition with cheques to the Canadian Museum of Nature, or through the expedition’s website www.canadianarcticexpedition.com.

The crew will also maintain a blog and live map on their website throughout their journey, for Canadians who want to follow along at home.

Scratching the surface Preliminary digging and pile-driving has begun on the western approach to Ottawa’s downtown light rail tunnel. Workers began construction on the entrance, near Wellington and Commissioner streets, last week, with the bulk of above-ground work expected to be finished by August. At that point, a boring machine will begin tunneling through the bedrock underneath Centretown.

Snowmobile club seeks snowy logo

En garde The sixth-annual Osgoode Medieval Festival took people back in time to a century of knights in shining armour, archery, horse-back riding, and yes, even sword-fighting, seen at right. The weekend-long event, held July 12 to 14, is a traditional event in Osgoode, where the community can leard about the medieval way of life and participate in different activities.

Emma Jackson emma.jackson@metroland.com

News - Artists can start thinking about snow a little earlier this summer as the Osgoode Carleton Snowmobile Trail Club launches a logo contest for next year’s provincial convention.

The club has been chosen to host the Ontario Federation of Snowmobile Clubs annual general meeting in September 2014. Hundreds of delegates from across the province will attend the convention in Ottawa, and the Osgoode club is already planning more than a year in advance.

As part of its hosting duties the club needs a logo to represent their theme, “Suit Up and Sled,” to be used on mail-outs, registration websites and delegate packages.

“We have our own club logo, but we wanted to come up with something

unique for the convention,” said club president Leigh Stacey. “We have lots of talented people around so we thought we’d try and generate some publicity about the club in a positive way.”

All residents, even those who don’t snowmobile, are welcome to submit a logo

by Aug. 15.

A winner will be chosen by the end of the summer, taking home a prize and the chance to have their artwork spread across the province.

The content is up to the artist’s interpretation, as long as it captures the spirit of winter and snowmobiling, Stacey said.

The logo also needs to be scalable to any size without losing quality, because it will be used on a variety of resources.

Entries can be forwarded to vice president Christine Smart at cksmart@live. com.
