Scott Tokessy baseball tourney hopes to increase its profile Jessica Cunha

jessica.cunha@metroland.com

Sports - There will be more than just peanuts and crackerjacks at the 18th annual Scott Tokessy Memorial Gold Glove Tournament this August. Organizers are hoping to attract more than just baseball fanatics this year by offering a wide variety of raffle and silent auction items, instant prizes, and a number of games and attractions, said Barbara Foster, promotions co-ordinator for the charity tournament. “It’s a great weekend for baseball but there’s more than that,” said Foster. “We’re just trying to increase the interest … increase the profile of the tournament.” The Scott Tokessy Memorial Gold Glove Tournament is the nation’s largest little league tournament for charity. Hosted by the Kanata Little League Baseball Association, games take place at ball diamonds throughout Kanata from Aug. 2 to 4. The volunteer-run baseball tournament began in 1996 in memory of 11-year-old Scott Tokessy. Three days shy of his 12th birthday Scott hit a homerun and collapsed in the dugout from an irregular heartbeat. His condition was unknown at the time. The competition raises funds for the Children’s Hospital of Eastern Ontario in Scott’s memory, to help fund equipment purchases and research within the cardiology department.

Making workplaces mental-health friendly Not Myself Today campaign continues to spread message Laura Mueller

Kanata North Coun. Marianne Wilkinson, right, joined Partners in Mental Health president Jeff Moat, centre, and Mucho Burrito co-owner Andrew Oestreich in Kanata on July 22 to promote a workplace mental-health awareness campaign called Not Myself Today.

News - The campaign may be over, but mental health issues don’t take a summer off and neither does the Not Myself Today project. The advocacy group is still hitting the pavement this summer, handing out cheery, brightly coloured buttons and mugs and in the process, raising awareness about how to bring the discussion about mental health into the workplace and support coworkers through their mental health issues. Jeff Moat, president of Partners for Mental Health, the organization that runs the workplace campaign, joined partners from the Canadian Federation of Nurses Unions to spread their message at Mucho Burrito in Kanata Centrum on July 22. The cause is close to the heart of the franchise’s owner, Andrew Oestreich. Oestreich’s father struggled with schizophrenia and ended up living on the streets of Ottawa before being reconnected with his family thanks to a charitable organization. “Mental health is something that affected my family and myself personally,” he said. “We’re trying to do something to destigmatize it.” Stigma is what often leads

to silence about mental health in the workplace, said Moat, even though people’s jobs can have a significant impact on their mental health – and vice versa. “Most of us wouldn’t think twice to tell our boss if it was a physical health issue,” Moat said. Not so for mental health issues, he said. “I think there is a responsibility on behalf of employers to create a mental-health

Mental health is something that affected my family and myself personally. We’re trying to do something to destigmatize it. ANDREW OESTREICH CO-OWNER, MUCHO BURRITO

friendly workplace,” he added. The campaign aims to help everyone connect with the concept by asking them to relate to everyday emotions such as grumpiness or sadness. “Everyone has had one of those days,” Moat said. The Not Myself Today campaign asks people to imagine what it would be like

to live with those feelings not for one day, but many days – not to mention the shame and discrimination that can accompany them. “It’s a way to build a bridge and get people into the subject matter.” Each day, half a million Canadians miss a day of work due to mental health issues, Moat said. One in three workplace disability claims relate to mental health, according to a 2011 study. The overall economic impact of mental health issues amounts to $51 billion in lost productivity, Moat said. The organization has handed out 200 mental-health toolkits for workplaces and 400 more have been downloaded so far from notmyselftoday. ca. Moat hopes the campaign will help employees feel more comfortable discussing mental; health issues in the workplace and asking for help and help employers be prepared with the resources they need to respond to those requests. Moat said the toolkit is a resource so individuals – whether they identify with having a mental illness or not – can bring them to their employer to spark a discussion. “We want to look after mental health not just at an individual level but also at the community level,” Moat said.

Tournament attracts teams from Quebec, Ontario and U.S. Continued from page 1

“We just want to make sure that we get as much money as we can for CHEO,” said Foster, about the reason for adding new attractions this year. “For me, the more awareness we get of the tournament, the more money we get to send directly to CHEO.”

Last year, the tournament raised $10,000, bringing the total amount of funds collected to $265,000 since it began. The 2012 tournament attracted 34 teams and more than 700 participants, including players and coaches. The baseball competition attracts teams from across the province, Quebec and the

United States. This is the first year rookies will be taking part in the tournament. PRIZES, RAFFLES, AUCTIONS AND GAMES

Midway games with fun prizes will be on site at the Scott Tokessy Field, located at the corner of Maple Grove

Road and Terry Fox Drive. “We’ve got all this fun stuff,” said Foster. “Every cent we raise goes to CHEO.” A radar gun will be set up to clock the speed of pitches thrown. “You do your two pitches then guess (the speed of) your third,” said Foster. “If you guess it right you get a prize.”

Other games will include the classic “knock over the pins” as well as “go fish,” said Foster. The silent auction and raffles will run from Friday, Aug. 2, at 1 p.m. to Saturday, Aug. 3 at 6 p.m. Raffles will be instant wins and specific draw times will be announced for the bigger prizes. “Don’t just come for the great baseball, come for your chance to win amazing raffle prizes and bid on fantastic silent auction items,” said Foster. EVENT

TICO#50007364

The opening ceremony will take place at the Scott Tokessy Field, located at the corner of

Maple Grove Road and Terry Fox Drive, on Aug. 3, at 10 a.m. Games will be played at diamonds across Kanata, including the Bridlewood core fields, Scott Tokessy and the east and west Walter Baker fields, the Kinsmen fields and the Frank MacDonald Field. The organizing committee is looking for volunteers to help run the tournament. High school students can obtain volunteer hours for helping out. To sign up, email barbfoster@live.ca.

Tourney raises funds for Make-A-Wish Foundation wishes of children in the Ottawa region. Last year’s inaugural Hockey4Wishes fundraiser raised $25,000 for Make-A-Wish Eastern Ontario, allowing for the granting of three wishes. This year’s goal was $25,000, with more than $23,000 actually raised. Organizers hope that by 2016 the event will have grown enough to fund the granting of up to 10 wishes each year. The concept of the tournament involves participation of four teams, each with 15 skaters and two goalies, with each team playing 12 onehour games over the 24 hour period.

john.curry@metroland.com

News - A hockey tournament raising money to grant wishes of children with lifethreatening medical conditions was held at the Bell Sensplex on July 20 to 21. The second-annual Hockey4Wishes Fundraiser, the brain child of a pair of Stittsville dads: Joel Barrette and Carlos Zaidi, featured 12 games played over a 24-hour period, with the money raised going to support the Make-AWish Foundation of Eastern Ontario. Proceeds from the fundraiser go towards granting the

Three meals are provided during the 24 hour event which is capped off with a gala brunch after the hockey ends at 9 a.m. on the Sunday. For last year’s inaugural event and for this year’s event as well, there were only enough players registered to ice two teams. This year saw an additional 10 players, and there were also some who took part in just a few of the games, making a donation for the privilege of playing on this drop-in basis. The hockey action is noncontact and non-competitive, involving adult recreational players of both sexes and game scores are not recorded.

FUNDRAISER

Barrette and Zaidi have combined their love of hockey with a desire to help Make-A-Wish Eastern Ontario fulfill the wishes of children suffering from severe medical conditions. That they both have healthy children has only made them more passionate about helping parents who are not as fortunate as they are. Barrette and Zaidi attended an adult hockey skills camp together which is how they rekindled their interest in playing hockey. Barrette serves as an assistant coach with his daughter’s hockey team and also plays in a league at the Sensplex while Zaidi plays pickup hockey. The idea of holding a fundraising hockey event came from the two of them sitting together in a dressing room and talking about such a fundraiser. Barette came up with the concept of organizing it like a hockey marathon, as it were, with games being played over a 24-hour period. Zaidi had previously participated in other 24-hour events such as relays and rallies, so the idea of playing hockey for 24 hours straight had what he calls “a nice ring.” Zaidi came up with the idea of using a hockey marathon to raise funds for Make-A-Wish Eastern Ontario. A friend of his daughter was a recipient of a wish from Make-A-Wish. He suggested that Make-A-Wish be the recipient of funds raised by this hockey marathon event.

Community - A rain storm didn’t keep picnickers at home last Wednesday. People packed themselves under a giant tent at Sandwell Green Park to wait out a burst of heavy rain that lasted about 20 minutes before continuing to enjoy the annual Kanata North Picnic on July 17. As the sun came out again, residents turned out in healthy numbers to take advantage of the free community event, hosted by Kanata North Coun. Marianne Wilkinson. The festivities included a free barbecue, displays from the Ottawa police, fire department and paramedics, a bouncy castle and slide, a petting zoo, face painting, and a rope bridge display from the Kanata Scouts.

We can handle beer, wine in stores Editorial missed the mark To the editor, After an hour of mowing my lawn at the end of a warm afternoon I poured myself a tall glass of cold refreshing beer. Unfortunately it was the last one on hand. To restock Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d have to drive 12 kilometres to Rockland or 15 kilometres to Orleans to a Beer Store. So it was with some dismay later to read Charles Gordonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s panning of why beer and wine should not be sold in corner stores.

His Funny Town column pokes a little humour at his fellow journalists pretending to be serious drinkers wanting more access to it. But then he points out the indecision of government ministers on this issue. He suggests that our provincial government needs to continue to keep its strict control and not let us get out of hand. Mr. Gordon states that it is difficult to see where the greater good is by allowing its sale in local corner stores. For me the greater good is

to allow family-owned corner stores to have the legal right to sell or not sell beer and wine as part of their business. For me the greater good is to have a free and open society where young people are taught at home, and to some extent at school, to choose food and drink wisely and consume them in moderation. It should be available on corner store shelves as much as tea, coffee, or soft drinks. Robert (Bob) Hawley Cumberland

To the editor, Your cynical editorial in the July 11 edition on Ontarioâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s byelections cannot go by unchallenged. The Ontario budget provided much-needed investments in public transit, infrastructure and employment programs and home care initiatives. It also lowered auto insurance rates. More needs to be done, particularly in the area of improving social assistance. The paper fails to acknowledge any of this â&#x20AC;&#x201C; opting instead to parrot Opposition leader Tim Hudak.

OPINION

EDITORIAL

Now you see it, soon you wonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t

nce again, city council has come up with a politically-savvy solution to the question of where to build a casino: build two of them. Last week, council members were slapping each otherâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s backs and tweeting merrily after they agreed to ask the Ontario Lottery Gaming Corporation for permission to build two gaming facilities in Ottawa. Never mind that the OLG has already denied such a request before. The provincial gaming authority has said numerous times that Ottawaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s â&#x20AC;&#x153;zoneâ&#x20AC;? can only accommodate one casino. Councilâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s vote is little more than an attempt to assuage the complaints from Ottawa Senators owner Eugene Melnyk, who is hoping to bring a gaming facility to Canadian Tire Centre in Kanata. If the OLG turns down Ottawaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s request for two casinos, the city will move ahead with its default location: the racetrack. This marvelous sleight of hand highlights the fact the casinoâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s location is a purely political decision made before any studies, consultation or rational debate has taken place. Earlier this month, the cityâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s finance committee approved sole sourcing the casino, located at the Rideau-Carleton Raceway, a motion proposed and pushed by Mayor Jim Watson. Never mind that the

mayor was flip-flopping on his previous promise to make the selection process an open competition. This was a decision based on political pressure. Lobby groups and supporters of the racetrack made their preference known, likely highlighting the 2014 municipal election date on Watsonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s calendar. Melnyk wasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t exactly thrilled with the mayorâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s motion. Lawyer in tow, he showed up at the finance committee meeting and blasted council for not providing a level playing field for bids, suggesting the process wasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t exactly legal. An independent legal review indicated it is legal. It certainly isnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t how council has conducted business in the past. Usually, the city allows an open bidding process and holds public consultations to figure out if residents want a proposed building/business in the first place. But why destroy a perfectly sound political decision with the principles of good decision making and democratic tradition? The mayor has dealt himself a winning hand, getting council to approve a plan that pleases everyone, yet has small chance of approval. We can only admire the shuffling ability of the mayor, who, like an experienced card shark has deftly maneuvered council to approve his motion. Two casinos? Now you see it, soon you wonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t.

COLUMN

A place where you donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t have to be an expert

ereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a scene from a cottage weekend. See if it seems familiar to you. Six guys, probably late teens, are on one of those pontoon boats. A pontoon boat is notoriously hard to manouevre, especially in a wind, and these guys are fishing off it. Theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re trying to get through a narrow opening between two islands. The opening is shallow and the bottom is covered with large boulders. The boat is trying to find its way through. To make matters more interesting, at least one of the anglers has caught bottom. So theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re trying to avoid the boulders, get through the opening and also get the guyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s lure off the bottom. One of the guys stands in the bow, watching for rocks. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Stop!â&#x20AC;? he yells. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Reverse! Reverse!â&#x20AC;? The boat reverses, clumsily. Somehow the snagged hook is freed and the pontoon boat backs out of the narrow passage and safely into open water. Somehow the proverb: â&#x20AC;&#x153;God helps drunks and little children,â&#x20AC;? springs to mind, except that these guys werenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t little and they didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t seem to be drunks either.

is a large amount of enjoyment. What a relief it is, after the exacting demands of the city, to get to a place where it really doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t matter how much skill you have. Sure, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s nice to be good at something. But itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s also nice when it doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t matter all that much. Beside a lake, there are no bosses, no alarm clocks, no buses to run after. Mastery of software does not enter into your existence. There are no updates to anything. There is no such thing as a cc, never mind a blind cc. There is no traffic â&#x20AC;&#x201C; once you get there. There is very little in the way of selfimprovement. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s true that at some lakes, children are offered lessons in this or that, but they donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t last long and the kids might learn something they might be able to teach you. Not that it matters if you learn it all that well. The demands of cottage life are quite rudimentary. You have to be able to tolerate the noise children make. You have to be patient and learn to read a story out loud several times in a row. You have to be the kind of person dogs like. Knowing a few simple card games comes in handy. There are some basic safety things you have to learn, but they are

mostly common sense. Even driving a boat, while not all that easy, can be accomplished by a non-expert, because the margin of error on a lake is wider than on a city street. Along the way, you find and settle into the activities at which you can be an expert, that you might have forgotten over the year â&#x20AC;&#x201C; taking a nap, telling jokes, eating gooey desserts, singing off-key, walking through the woods, exaggerating, unloading a boat, using a fly-swatter and figuring out whodunit. Easy. The rest of it is eating and sleeping, getting along with people and knowing when to wear a hat.

Addiction: the devil inside

was very saddened to hear of the death of Glee actor Cory Monteith earlier this month. That he died of a heroin and alcohol overdose made his death even more tragic. Drug addiction -- alcohol, tobacco, prescription or street drugs -- is a powerful demon. Addiction is something that affects most of us, either personally, or because we have friends or family that struggle with addiction. Despite this, many of us fail to sympathize with addicts. Whether it’s the homeless person wandering the street, begging for change to help him get his next fix, or the successful, middle-aged, middle-class woman secretly downing a bottle of wine each night, we have little understanding of addiction

BRYNNA LESLIE Capital Muse and even less sympathy for the addict. “Why can’t they just get help?” Anyone who’s ever dealt with addiction, however, can relate to the old Christian adage, “The closer you are to God, the harder the Devil works to tempt you.” Addiction is a lot like that. For Monteith, this seems to be a harrowing reality. Not only was the actor fresh out of rehabilitation, but he died on the night he had dinner with the co-founder of

Project Limelight. Monteith was planning to support the theatre program for children in Vancouver’s Downtown Eastside, best known as the poorest postal code in Canada. Myself, I’ve had a life-long struggle with nicotine. I grew up in a smoking household and started smoking at the ridiculously young age of 13; this, despite spending most of my childhood begging my relatives to quit. I’ve quit many times over my adult

life, always eventually returning to the comfort, satisfaction and inspiration that only cigarettes seem to provide. For those who are fortunate enough to have escaped addiction, it may seem there are lots of supports available to addicts. This is far from true. Young people, in particular, face up to two years’

As a result, too much pressure is put on family doctors and others on the frontline, people who have neither the training nor the resources to support addicts. For those, like me, who have struggled on and off with a nicotine addiction, it often comes down to individual resources and the

Monteith, a wealthy celebrity and anti-drug crusader, took heroin and died. It seems unfathomable at a time when Monteith was, to use my previous metaphor, “as close to God” as he could get. Unfortunately, the devil was working pretty hard that night. A recent fundraising success in Ottawa is perhaps a great example of how we can work collectively to take the pressure off frontline medical workers and dedicate more to treatment and rehabilitation. Last year, a local fundraiser spearheaded by former police chief, (now Senator), Vern White, raised $2.25 million to build a 30-bed facility at the Dave Smith Youth Treatment Centre for youth addicts. White rated the fundraiser as one of the biggest successes in his 30 years as a police officer. Given how close the devil resides in all of us, I’d have to agree.

West Ottawa Warriors help build school in Nicaragua Steph Willems

steph.willems@metroland.com

News - Education can easily be taken for granted, but in developing nations few have the luxury to feel this way. Six players from the West Ottawa U14 Girls Warriors will soon return from Nicaragua, where they assisted members of charitable organization SchoolBOX construct a rural school building in the Central American nation. The journey follows a 2012 fundraising initiative in which the girls raised more than $1,700 (and significant awareness for the issue) through a five-kilometre run. An additional $2,000 was handed to SchoolBOX through the True Sport Give Back Competition. Warriors teammates Kathleen Carson, Priya Nagpal, Tiffany Ingram, Gabriele Donnelly, Jessica Aiello and Talia Laroche joined coach Dina Bell-Laroche for the trip, something the West Ottawa Soccer Club is very proud of. “It’s been an inspiring process from beginning to end,” said Bjorn Osieck, chief executive of the club. “This is a wonderful, feel-good story, and I’m proud of the girls and their coach.” The trip was arranged following the granting of a youth volunteer

scholarship by CTV’s Amazing People Gala, in support of SchoolBOX. The six players and their coach are lending assistance to the construction of a four-room school. SchoolBOX executive director Sarah Kerr said that in Nicaragua, only 51 per cent of the population reaches Grade 5. The organization has a vision of a country where everyone has the opportunity to complete primary school and where students and educators feel empowered. “It has been so inspirational for our entire team at SchoolBOX to see the dedication and commitment of the West Ottawa soccer team to this mission of ‘Making Education Possible,’” said Kerr. “Under the direction of their amazing coach, Dina Bell-Laroche, these young athletes have raised thousands of dollars towards educational materials for hundreds of kids and sponsored five regional soccer

tournaments for the children of Nicaragua.” Kerr said that each day at the build site, the Warrior teammates have been organizing soccer games with the boys and girls of the village, as well as developing lasting friendships. The West Ottawa Soccer Club has a long history of philanthropy, raising funds and making donations to many deserving charities and organizations over the years. Osieck said the club has no formal connections with any given charity and the recipients of their fundraising dollars are chosen on an individual basis. “We engage the Warrior community to live by True Sport principles, by giving back to the community in both large and small ways,” said Osieck. “I love the though that we are building the community leaders of both today and tomorrow.”

Hydro Ottawa helps rebuild Pullen Avenue Group Home

On July 16th, a group of Hydro Ottawa powerline maintainers and cable jointers generously lent their time and talents to connect the electrical service to the rebuilt Pullen Avenue Group Home, a 10-unit home for people with disabilities. Hydro Ottawa donated the use of their equipment, which included multiple vehicles, while its employees promptly answered the call to volunteer their time for this great cause. Personal Choice Independent Living, which operates the Pullen Avenue Group Home, is a non-profit organization offering housing and support services to people with physical disabilities and provides assisted living services to senior citizens in the community. “Donating time and talents for this cause just goes to show how much our employees care about the community they serve,” said Bryce Conrad, President and Chief Executive Officer of Hydro Ottawa.

A fish picture worthy of putting into a book

he coffee table book Beautiful Arnprior is by professional photographers Pat and Rosemarie Keough. Although more than 20 years old, the book has aged well and remains the definitive book on the town. Along with historic photos, landscapes and portraits, there is exactly one photo of a fisherman with his catch. It seems a bit odd; just one picture of a smiling angler in a book about a town where sport fishing plays such a central role. But there it is on page 57, a photo of Don Johnston and his prize: a 27-pound muskie, caught in Chats Lake. Johnston has nabbed plenty of fish all over the valley during his 80 years on this planet. The past president of the Arnprior Fish and Game Club has pulled up lunkers from Quebec to Barry’s Bay, the latter where he belongs to a club along a road named for a West Carleton village – Carp Way. A wealth of stories and facts from days gone by, the developer holds a vivid memory of that day in September 1983 when he showed up on his friend’s doorstep in Logger’s

or five days. You can’t keep nature out of the kid.

Valley Fish Tales

Way with a muskie. “I had the boat on top of my old army truck,” Johnston said. “It was too nice of a day to work, so I said ‘I’m going fishing.’” Now, anyone who knows him knows that Johnston is a tough old bird. A lifetime of hard work was taking its toll, even at age 50 when he had his first heart surgery, a bypass. (His seventh is coming up.) But it wasn’t long after that first one when he took a boat to the Quebec side of the Ottawa, not far from the CN rail bridge. Bumping along the water at full blast with a bum ticker didn’t faze him. There were photos to take and fish to catch. “I was taking pictures of the Quebec side; exquisite in colour,” he said with narrowing eyes. “My line stopped and I figured it was stuck. I was looking back at the Quebec

side and didn’t pay much attention. Then I noticed the line was way out in the river. That can’t be right!” Johnston managed to land the muskellunge, and brought it to Pat Keough’s nearby house. “He took a picture and the next thing I knew it was in the Arnprior book.” He has plenty of stories about back in the day when he and friends would pack their fishing gear, a frying pan and butter, maybe a block of ice and head out for the day. It could be in the Shawville direction for speckled trout. It could be the Madawaska for bass. The developer and owner of Kingdon Holdings also has a few stories from today. After his seventh time under the knife for heart surgery, he plans to travel up Carp Way and stay at the camp for four

Eighty-four-year-old Jean Applebee in the Pontiac has more energy than most kids half her age. She loves to talk and tell stories and, well, take a sincere interest in people. So when she overheard a couple of gentlemen talking while waiting to see the doctor at hospital, Jean couldn’t help but interject. The men were staring proudly at a couple of snapshot photos. Jean thought it peculiar, since most folks these days flash photos on their phone before hitting delete. The man holding the photos was explaining how the one is 2.5 pounds and other a healthy 7.5 “I hope their mother made out OK,” Jean said, whooping with laughter. “Turns out they were looking at a couple of trout!” Her daughter sitting on the other side bumped Jean in the arm, and said, “Your big mouth is going to get you in trouble.” Born and raised in the Maritimes, Jean spends most days watching the coming and goings at the Otter Lake municipal building. She has her indoor cat, tea and usually something baking in the oven. Life has been good and continues to be good to Jean, that much is evident. “I wave at everybody,” she says, speaking a mile a minute. “And if you are close enough I’ll give you a hug.” She enjoys reading Valley Fish Tales (obviously a wise woman) and has plenty of friends in Renfrew and elsewhere on this side of the river. Sure, life has given her some setbacks. Her “hubby” was rushed to hospital hours before their 60th anniversary party. He didn’t come out. But she seems to say “Yes” to every rising sun. “From day one when we moved to the Pontiac we never felt shunned. You know there is a lot of French, but everybody has always been great to us,” she said. And who wouldn’t be, regardless of language? Jean’s liable to give them a hug.

Do you have a fish story sure to entertain readers throughout the Ottawa Valley? It has to be true and it has to be short. But after that it’s up to you. Give Derek Dunn a call at 613.623.6571 or email derek. dunn@metroland.com. He’ll jot it down for an upcoming Valley Fish Tales.

Blueberry coconut dessert light on calories not on taste Lifestyle - This is a new twist on the classic angel food cake. Served with yogurt sauce, it makes a low-fat dessert. Preparation time: 10 minutes. Baking time: 40 minutes. Serves 12. INGREDIENTS

• 750 ml (3 cups) blueberries or raspberries • 430 g (1 package) angel food cake mix • 375 ml (1-1/2 cups) toasted ﬂaked coconut • 375 ml (1-1/2 cups) zero per cent Greek yogurt

• 75 ml (1/3 cup) part skim milk • 45 ml (3 tbsp) liquid honey • 5 ml (1 tsp) vanilla PREPARATION

Line a 34-by-22-centimetre (13-by-9-inch) cake pan with parchment paper. Rinse the blueberries and pat them dry with paper towels. Spread the berries in a pan. Prepare the cake mix according to the package directions. Fold in 175 ml (3/4 cup) of the coconut. Spoon the mixture evenly over the berries. Bake in a 180

Guess Who is coming to the Carp Fair

SERVING KANATA NORTH

Kanata’s Silver Creek to open for iconic band Patricia Leboeuf pleboeuf@metroland.com

News - The 150th-annual Carp Fair is fast approaching and such a big event deserves an equally big band, namely the Guess Who. Wrapping up Sunday’s lineup, the band, without superstars Randy Bachman and Burton Cummings, will be entertaining the crowd with a two-hour show. Gate admission is the only cost to attend, but space is limited. “If they want to see them I would say you need to be here early in the day,” said Carp Fair general manager Joyce Trafford. “Enjoy the day at the fair and make your way early to the arena to see them.” People will, however, be able to stand outside and listen in, she added. The Guess Who have been a big name in rock since they first began performing in the ’60s, gaining recognition worldwide with such hits as “American Woman.” They broke up in 1975, but reunited in some shape or form several times over the years. Hype over the band’s arrival is growing. With news of the band playing in Carp, the fair committee has received numerous phone calls and emails abut the event, detailing the excitement people are feeling for the band’s upcoming visit. “The Guess Who have never preformed in this area,” said Trafford. “So I think it’s great that we were able to obtain them for the fair.” They will infuse new blood into the musical mix and make for a good fit, she said. “We kind of started to exhaust our bands because we have had them for quite a few years and have started to recycle them,” said Trafford. Opening for the Guess Who is Ottawa’s Silver Creek. “They are a local band,” said Trafford. “I think some of the people that are in the band went to school at Holy Trinity. They are really local Kanata boys.” Their sound is often described as “strongly reminiscent of certain influences

City Councillor, Kanata North CASINO DEBATE CONTINUES I am pleased that last week Council moved towards a more open process on the location of any future casino in Ottawa. The motion to consider only the location at the Rideau Raceway was referred to a Committee Meeting on August 26th where a revised motion will be debated. The revision is to support but restrict gaming operations at the Raceway to what is presently permitted on that site (1,250 slot machines and 21 tables). Ontario Lottery and Gaming (OLG) could then continue their procurement process for another site. This will require approval by the Ontario Cabinet. At my request City Staff, in doing an economic analysis of casinos, will also look at the funds that Rideau Carleton will receive from the Province, under a plan for all Raceways. To be completed this September, this plan will replace funds formerly received from slot operations at all Raceways in Ontario. In my view it is not the City’s role to determine or support activities to help fund any business – in fact it is questionable if this would be permitted under existing provincial legislation.

Kanata-based Silver Creek will open for the Guess Who at the Carp Fair on Sunday, Sept. 28. The band’s sound is influenced by groups such as The Band, The Allman Brothers and Neil Young. such as The Band, The Allman Brothers and Neil Young, but never coming even close to sounding like an imitation,” remarked a press release.

On Sunday, Silver Creek will be opening for the Guess Who. On the ground and performing three times a day will be the President’s Choice Superdogs. These trained pooches will leap, dance and delight crowds of all ages. “If you have ever seen them anywhere else you definitely know they are a drawing card,” said Trafford. Admission cost is $5 for children ages six to 12 and $10 for anybody over the age of 13.Advanced tickets can be found at the Carp Fair office or by calling 613839-2172.

Today there is an excellent and effective immunization program for measles. This wasn’t available when I was a child and, at the age of 5, I had a very serious case of measles. I remember being in a darkened room unable to concentrate on anything. My mother said she could hear my struggling breathing throughout the house. Many children in other parts of the world die from measles and there is absolutely no reason for that to happen to a Canadian child today. Ottawa Public Health (OPH) and the Children’s Hospital of Eastern Ontario (CHEO) are encouraging residents to ensure their measles immunizations are up to date following the confirmation of one case of measles in Gatineau. OPH was notified of the measles case in an unimmunized child who was seen at CHEO. The source of the case is suspected to be from international travel. This case highlights the need for continued vigilance, not only for measles, but for all other diseases for which you can be immunized.

LAC-MEGANTIC Our hearts have gone out to the residents of Lac-Mégantic as they struggle to deal with the terrible train disaster that has taken so many lives and destroyed much of the core of their town including their public library and archives. City Council on July 17th approved a motion that I submitted to encourage residents of the City of Ottawa and Members of City Council to support the Town through donations to the Red Cross. I have sent a donation and I know a number of residents of Kanata North have also done so. Thanks to all who come to the support of others in their time of need.

Well, Father never did settle down for a nap. He walked the shoreline, he lit and relit his pipe, and when he finally sat down with his back against a tree, he never took his eyes off the blanket covering the lunch. “Think I’ll head back to the barns to check on that cow that didn’t look too good this morning,” he said.

Even though we had yet to eat the lunch, I knew Father wouldn’t be back, and I knew too the cow had little to do with it. When the sun was heading for the west and we had eaten the lunch, the boys had dried off, and everything was packed onto the little red wagon, Father still hadn’t come back. Mother assured me he would be just fine. “He just doesn’t like picnics,” she said. We gathered up our belongings and started for home. I saw it before anyone else -there was smoke coming out of the chimney over our house. Mother just let out a long and laboured sigh when I pointed it out to her. We opened the kitchen door to blazing heat and there was Father

sitting at the old pine table. He hadn’t bothered taking off his straw hat and in front of him was a dinner plate piled high with fried potatoes, slabs of salt pork and enough buttered bread to feed a family of six. The white granite tea pot was boiling on the stove and Father had opened a jar of preserves and they weren’t in a fruit nappy, but in a soup bowl. “Well, so much for a nice cool kitchen,” was all Mother said. Finally, Father stopped shovelling in his food long enough to look up from his plate. “A man can’t be expected to work from dawn to dusk and survive on a sandwich and a piece of cake,” he said, taking another long slurp of hot tea from his saucer.

Make sure your child is eating plenty of colourful fruits and vegetables and good fats, which will help support brain health now and in the future. One good fat is DHA (docosahexaenoic acid) omega-3, a major structural fat in the brain accounting for up to 97 percent of the omega-3 fatty acids found in the brain. DHA plays a role in how well cells communicate with each other, which may help with memory function and clear thinking. While most people believe that fish produce their own DHA, it’s actually the microalgae in their food chain that makes them a rich source of omega-3. Children traditionally have a low dietary intake of DHA since they don’t usually stack their plate full of fatty fish, including salmon, tuna and mackerel. New research points to the benefits of DHA for mainstream school children who are underperforming in reading. The Docosahexaenoic Acid Oxford Learning and Behaviour (DOLAB) trial found that supplementation with 600 milligrams of DHA from algae a day for 16 weeks improved reading and behaviour in healthy school-aged children with low reading scores, as compared to placebo. “Just as calcium is needed for strong bones, DHA is needed for a healthy brain,” says Dr. David Perlmutter, a board-certified neurologist and author of Raise a Smarter Child by Kindergarten. “It’s never too early to incorporate DHA into a child’s diet. In fact, mothers deliver this important fatty acid to their infants in their breast milk during nursing. The DOLAB trial demonstrates that DHA is an important nutrient for school-aged children too.” There are algal DHA fortified foods, beverages and supplements on the market. Visit lifesdha.ca to see a listing of products fortified with the same source of vegetarian and sustainable DHA used in the DOLAB trial. News Canada

Fun continues at art gallery Summer exhibit features new artist for August Jessica Cunha

jessica.cunha@metroland.com

Arts - The fun continues at the Kanata Civic Art Gallery throughout the month of August, as artist Patricia Brander takes the helm. The Greely resident is the second feature artist of the “Just for Fun and Colour Me Kids” exhibit, which launched in June and runs until Aug. 29. Morgan’s Grant artist Amie Talbot was featured throughout July. “You can’t get more different in terms of people,” said Brander about her acrylic abstract artwork and Talbot’s coloured pencil drawings.

She said she got the creative gene from her father, who had a decorative wrought iron business in Nova Scotia and had the ability to create “anything and everything.” Brander began to gravitate more towards abstract painting because it allowed her to work more with thoughts and moods, rather than objects. “It’s a feeling or emotion that I operate on, or a memory,” she said. “I find it more fun and there’s more freedom to express (with abstract painting). I find with this it’s very freeing in a way.” As well, various people can find different meanings within the same abstract piece. “People can decide what it means to them based on how they’re feeling,” said Brander. She joined the Kanata Civic Art

She signed up to be featured in the “Just for Fun” exhibit because “it best represents what I do,” she said. Brander’s work features a kaleidoscope of colours and textures. “I use a lot of paint. You can make it very thick,” said Brander, who works for high-tech company Irdeto Canada Corporation in north Kanata. “I found this a great way to relax … because it’s so much fun.” Although she’d always had an interest in art, Brander was first bit with a real interest around age 12. She started her artistic career using oils, watercolours and pastels, creating landscapes, and studying a “bit of art.”

JESSICA CUNHA/METROLAND

Greely artist Patricia Brander is the feature artist for the month of August during the Kanata Civic Art Gallery’s ‘Just for Fun and Colour Me Kids’ exhibit. Her abstract artwork features a kaleidoscope of colours and textures. Gallery two years ago, after another member approached her at an art show and asked if she’d ever considered joining. “It’s fun. I enjoy it,” said Brander of the organization. “These people are great.” Her tools of the trade include a palette knife and containers of paint, which she squeezes directly onto the canvas. “I’ll just create this thing directly on the canvas,” said Brander. “It’s easy to manipulate … if you don’t like something and want to take it off, you can do that.” If the creative mood strikes her, Brander said she can finish a piece in a

morning, something that’s not possible when working with other mediums because she’d have to wait for the paint to dry. And sometimes the finished product is a surprise, even to her. “I didn’t really know how (one painting was) going to look until it was done,” said Brander, adding, “When it’s done, it’s perfect because that’s how it’s supposed to be.” The Kanata Civic Art Gallery is located in the Mlacak Centre at 2500 Campeau Dr., and is open while the building undergoes construction. A temporary entrance is set up at the arena, to the left of the main doors. For more information and hours of operation, visit kanatagallery.ca.

News - A development proposal first unveiled to Westboro residents last winter is now officially on the books. The zoning bylaw amendment filed with the city last week concerns the abandoned used car lot on the southeast corner of Richmond Road and Tweedsmuir Avenue, adjacent to the Richmond Plaza Motel and LCBO. The proposal is for a ninestorey, 70-unit residential apartment building with four commercial units on the ground floor. A public “heads-up” meeting held in February brought together the residents of the surrounding community, architect Vince Colizza -- also the representative for owner First Capital Realty -- and city planning staff. First Capital purchased the land in order to add new, upscale housing stock to its property portfolio, referencing nearby amenities and proximity to rapid transit as its rationale for wanting increased height on the site. The lot, located at the bottom of a slight hill to the south, has a traditional mainstreet zoning designation, which allows for four storeys of height. Traditional mainstreets typically allow buildings of four to six storeys, although there are exceptions that can be made for prominent locations. “I have a group that wants to bring rental units to market, which there are a severe shortage of,” said Colizza during the Feb. 7. Members of both the Westboro Community Association and Hampton

Iona Community Group pressed Colizza for answers at that meeting, asking why the proposal increased in height from six storeys to nine at the last minute. Colizza said that a previous planned project in Sandy Hill fell through following a height reduction that would have negatively affected the rental rates of the planned units. While Colizza felt the nine-storey height was appropriate for the site, many community members disagreed. Other questions surrounded street interaction and parking garage access. The working proposal outlined during the winter described a building of 72 units, 9,700 square metres of retail space and a total of 60 parking spaces for all resident, retail and visitor uses. While the nine-storey design remains in the submitted rezoning application, the number of units has fallen to 70 and the amount of retail space to 6,319 square metres. Parking remains the same at 60 vehicle spaces, while 33 spots will be available for bicycle parking. Details of the application to amend the existing traditional mainstreet zoning include the height increase, reduced setbacks, a reduced driveway width, and the elimination of a 45 degree angular plane restriction. Geoffrey Hall, planning assistant to Kitchissippi Coun. Katherine Hobbs, said a public meeting for the 236 Richmond Rd. application won’t happen until the fall -- likely in early or mid-September. A planning committee date would likely be in late October or early November, Hall said.

Council rolls the dice on two gambling sites City will discuss protecting slots at the raceway and adding a new casino Font_PalatinoLinotype_Bold Location_MyriadPro_Bold

Laura Mueller

laura.mueller@metroland.com ALL TYPE OUTLINED

News - City council is doubling down by asking the province if Ottawa can have two gambling sites. While council had already indicated a preference to see gambling options expanded where they already exist in Ottawa – at the Rideau Carleton Raceway – the vote on July 17 means councillors would like to see another casino site in addition to keeping at least 21 gaming tables at the raceway. The move was in response to what Mayor Jim Watson and councillors have been hearing from residents, said Beacon Hill-Cyrville Coun. Tim Tierney, who proposed the motion. Osgoode Coun. Doug Thompson represents the raceway in his ward. He said he brought the largest petition he can recall a politician presenting: a 70,000-signature petition supporting saving jobs at the raceway by keeping gambling there. “There must be a fair and open process for casino bidding,” Watson said, adding that he feels there has been plenty of consultation on the issue already. All members of council supported Tierney’s move to refer the discussion to a special meeting of the finance and economic development committee on Aug. 26 so public delegates could come speak to the concept of creating two gambling zones in Ottawa. But that doesn’t mean the idea of having two casinos has unanimous support around the council horseshoe. One of the most vocal casino opponents, Gloucester-Southgate Coun. Diane Deans, dissented on the

raceway but be fair to other casino bidders at the same time. But it won’t be the first time the mayor has asked for two gambling sites in Ottawa. Watson has previously written to the Ontario Lottery and Gaming Corporation and provincial officials to ask for a “satellite facility” to complement gaming operations at the raceway. He received no response.

This is a lesson in what not to do. West Carleton-March Coun. Eli El-Chantiry

The city’s finance committee will discuss the idea of having two casinos in Ottawa – one at the Rideau Carleton Raceway, above, and another in an undecided location. parts of the motion asking for two gambling zones for Ottawa. “This is confirmation of a pre-determined outcome that we want more gaming in Ottawa,” Deans said, noting that perhaps the city might want to do more consultation on the matter before coming to that conclusion. That’s why she voted in favour of sending the matter to the committee on Aug. 26. The move made other councillors happy, though, because it removed

the perception that city council is favouring one community institution – the raceway – over another, like the Ottawa Senators and Canadian Tire Centre. Sens owner Eugene Melnyk’s pleas to let him bid for a casino at the arena were shot down at a recent committee meeting when councillors voted to limit gambling to the raceway. Tierney’s motion at the July 17 council meeting could re-open the door for a casino in Kanata or else-

where in the city. “This somehow devolved (into something) about saving jobs,” said Bay Coun. Mark Taylor, who was the seconder on Tierney’s motion. “ The debate about gambling resulted in pitting two community resources against each other … This motion restores fairness.” “It gives everyone a chance to be at the table,” said Orléans Coun. Bob Monette, who was among the councillors who wanted to protect the

That’s different than asking for two gambling sites in the form of two gaming zones for Ottawa, Watson said, so he’s hoping for more success this time around – especially since he now has the support of council. West Carleton-March Coun. Eli El-Chantiry was among those who pointed out that the city has misstepped as it tries to react to a process dictated by the OLG. “This is a lesson in what not to do,” he said. “It’s really hard to turn a big ship after it’s been sailing for a while.” Other councillors wanted city staff to prepare a report on the socio-economic impacts of expanding gambling in Ottawa. Council has already ordered such a report, but it wouldn’t be undertaken until after a casino location had been proposed. If Tierney’s motion was accepted by the committee in August, it would kick off such a study, but only for the raceway location. KnoxdaleMerivale Coun. Keith Agli said he planned to ask for an amendment to ensure the study looks at the possibility of more than one gambling site. “We should understand what kind of problem we could be creating,” said Capital Coun. David Chernushenko, who is not in favour of a new casino. “In a way, the point is moot to me today about how many casinos we have and where they are located.”

Main Street to be made ‘complete’ Council approves reducing street to two lanes, adding cycling track Laura Mueller

News - A heated discussion about making Main Street “complete” ended in the result Old Ottawa East residents were looking for: reduced car lanes, added cycling lanes and wider sidewalks. The two-lane, “complete street” makeover for Main Street was approved by council on July 17, but construction won’t get underway until August of next year, after the detailed design is completed. The ward’s councillor, Capital Coun. David Chernushenko, said council’s 18-6 vote was a huge win for the community. “Main Street has degraded as a place to live, a place to walk, a place to own a business or develop,” he said. “This will be a boost for businesses and development.” Kanata South Coun. Allan Hubley has been outspoken in his objection to the complete-street makeover. He worried that approving the format would set the stage for city staff to recom-

Revamp will slow down traffic: mayor Continued from page 30

Mayor Jim Watson was also in support of the revamp because he said it will slow down traffic and make the area safer, which are the top issues he hears about from residents across the city. “This is a very progressive thing to do,” the mayor said, adding he hopes to see more “complete streets” in other communities. Transportation committee chairman Keith Egli, councillor for Knoxdale-Merivale Ward, has been a champion for the complete-street makeover. He said it “is not an inflexible template.” “A complete street in Kanata might not look at all like a complete street in Coun. Chernushenko’s ward,” Egli said. “There are criteria, but it’s a flexible approach to dealing with roads. “This is our first entry as a city into that innovative city design,” he said. Gloucester-Southgate Coun. Diane Deans was opposed to Main Street’s makeover as a complete street, but she said she’s also not against the idea of a complete street. “In the right place, at the right time, I do think this is something we should be pursuing,” she said. “I don’t think this is the

right time to be removing arterial roads.” Deans’ south-end residents who commute by car could face a longer commute – or be forced to find a different route – since a rebuilt Main Street will have less traffic capacity at the busiest times.

A complete street in Kanata might not look at all like a complete street in Coun. (David) Chernushenko’s ward. There are criteria, but it’s a flexible approach to dealing with roads. COUN. KEITH ELGI, TRANSPORTATION CHAIR

Project manager Ron Clark from Delcan, the consulting firm the city hired for the project, said Main Street can currently handle 1,200 vehicles in both direction per hour in peak times. When the street is rebuilt, it could handle 900 vehicles in the same period with no traffic delays, or the

same 1,200-vehicle volume as today, but with a three-minute delay. “It’s giving more mobility options. It’s not saying you have to walk or cycle,” said Chernushenko, who has a reputation as a cycling advocate and environmentalist. “ It’s saying that if you were too scared, now you can.” Barrhaven Coun. Jan Harder was completely opposed to the idea. She said she doesn’t want an assumption ever, or at least in the next decade, that the city would put a similar type of complete street in a suburban area. Harder and Alta Vista Coun. Peter Hume said they hoped getting a complete street for Main Street would make Old Ottawa East residents more willing to accept the Alta Vista Transportation Corridor – a new bridge from the hospital area across the Rideau River, connecting to Lees Avenue in Old Ottawa East. But Hume also said he didn’t think the issue was as “dramatic” as other councillors made it out to be. “I don’t think it’s as drastic as going on a road diet or any of the other rhetoric surrounding it,” Hume said. “You’re not going to notice the function change. I fundamentally believe that. We’ve seen it happen on other roads.”

32 Kanata Kourier-Standard EMC - Thursday, July 25, 2013

News - Residents’ ire over the proposed Richmond Underground light-rail route was nowhere to be seen as city council unanimously approved the plan on July 17. Despite hearing from a chorus of unhappy residents in a day-long transportation committee meeting two weeks before, councillors approved the route with no debate at the council meeting. Approving a route for the future extension of light rail west of Tunney’s Pasture means the city’s chosen Richmond Underground route is close to becoming enshrined in the city’s transportation master plan. The route would start at Tunney’s Station and run along the Sir John A. Macdonald Parkway in a trench for approximately 500 metres and traverses Rochester Field before dipping underground under Richmond Road for 700 m. Council has committed to looking at the cost and feasibility of burying that remaining 500 m through the field – something the National Capital Commission, which owns the land, has said is essential if the city wants its blessing. The route would require the NCC to grant the city access to about a kilometre of its land along the parkway and the NCC’s board has

twice voted against the city’s plan to run trains – even in a trench – along the road. The NCC issued a terse news release shortly after council’s vote to re-iterate that the federal agency has the final say over how its land along the Sir John A. Macdonald Parkway will be used. “Notwithstanding today’s decision by Ottawa city council of the Richmond Underground as the preferred corridor for the light rail, the decision as whether to build or not on federal lands in this corridor will remain with the National Capital Commission board of directors,” the news release reads. The NCC’s board will focus on two key concerns when it looks to make a decision, the news release continues: unimpeded, continuous access to the land along the Ottawa River and minimal visual impact on the landscape quality and the experience of people who go there. Half an hour later, Mayor Jim Watson responded in an open letter sent to NCC board chairman Russell Mills and the media. Watson assured Mills the city will continue to work with the NCC on the route. “We fully appreciate and understand that the NCC is in a position to establish conditions,” Watson wrote. “We are confident that we have identified a budget and an approach that can accommodate every

aspect of the NCC’s motion as design progresses.” City staff has already proposed changes aimed at pleasing the NCC that will inflate the bill by $80 million. The budget for the project, which now stands at $980 million, cannot stand to get any larger or it will impact the city’s ability to tackle other transit projects on its list, said city treasurer Marion Simulik. “Every time we whittle a dollar away, it eats into that $4 billion envelope for rail till 2031,” said Innes Coun. Rainer Bloess. During a transportation committee meeting on July 5, deputy city manager Nancy Schepers said staff has not done a “deep enough analysis” to come up with a price tag for burying the remaining 500 m. “That’s what we’d propose to do in the next phase,” she said. Schepers did say there is a significant difference in cost between keeping the rail line above ground or burying it. Per kilometre, it costs approximately $40 to 60 million to build on the surface, but that number balloons to $100 to 150 million per kilometre for underground rail. The line wouldn’t begin construction until 2017 or 2018. It would carry 1,300 passengers in each direction during the peak hour by 2031.

News - The city pushed forward with plans to redevelop Arts Court last week despite the federal government rejecting its request for $9 million needed to build the project. Rideau-Vanier Coun. Mathieu Fleury said he found out the feds tossed out the funding request by reading an Ottawa Citizen story about the letter, which was sent to deputy city manager Steve Kanellakos on July 9. “I’m disappointed because we’ve asked for $9 million. To be brutally honest, we didn’t expect $9 million, but we expected something,” Fleury said. “To turn around and say ‘Ottawa, don’t come to the feds for all your priorities’ – we’re not.” The project is still listed at the top priority in the city’s arts, culture and heritage action plan and it’s the only request the city made under the Canada Cultural Spaces Fund more than a year

ago, Fleury said. The letter from Marie Moliner, regional executive director of Canadian Heritage, says that the city’s $9-million request amounts to a third of the total annual budget for that nationwide fund. Fleury, Mayor Jim Watson and city staff were set to discuss next steps and strategies for reopening the funding discussion. “This project needs to happen, but I don’t know at this point,” Fleury said. “It leaves me with a lot of questions, a lot of doubt. I’m still confident that in the end we’ll find some way of getting in done – maybe not in the same timeline.” Those questions went unanswered even as the city’s planning committee was asked to support rezoning the site to pave the way for the future privatepublic partnership redevelopment. The committee unanimously approved that rezoning, including permitting a 23-storey tower at the corner of Waller and Daly streets, on July 16. The city is

A couple residents of a neighbouring Claridge condo tower spoke to the committee to warn them against adding more people into an area that’s already packed with people and noisy trucks. “You guys don’t under-

stand…” an emotional Graham Gleddie shouted at the committee. “It’s a hellish nightmare of noise from truck traffic.” Gleddie has been living in his condo for four years and said he didn’t think the city could allow more people to live or sleep in hotel rooms in the area until it removes the heavy-truck route from the downtown core. Another resident from that condo building pointed out that there is nothing stopping a private developer from coming back to the city to ask for an even taller tower. But the city’s planning manager, John Smit, said the city wouldn’t approve that change and the Ontario Municipal Board would probably reject an appeal because it wouldn’t match the city’s planning bible – it’s Official Plan. The $36-million expansion would also include a large addition to the existing Arts Court building – a heritage complex that used to be home to the courthouse and registry office. One of the architects the city hired for the project, Mitchell Hall, said the new Ottawa Art Gallery portion would be a 3,260 square-metre “elegant box” tucked in along the existing north-south stone wall that divides the site. The city is looking at having the gallery building serve as a billboard for art, perhaps using projection or a digital sign, Hall said. A 250-seat screening room, a café and a black-box theatre on Waller Street for the University of Ottawa is also part of the concept. The university will pay $5 million for that portion while the city and other potential partners such as the federal government would cover the remaining $31 million. Open space, seating areas and sculpture courts would buffer the new buildings along Daly, leading into the main entrance, and along Waller. The adjacent former jailhouse is now a privately-owned hostel and not up for redevelopment.

Council approves townhomes in Chapel Hill Developer says city should better explain infill policies to neighbours to reduce conflict Laura Mueller

News - Developer Domicile got approval for the townhomes it wants to build in Chapel Hill from city council on July 17, to the chagrin of neighbours residing in singlefamily homes. André Thivierge, co-chairman of the Chapel Hill Residents Committee, called the result a disappointment. He said councillors’ arguments over the plan to allow

stacked townhomes of up to 12 metres tall on the former Roger Bergeron and Sons property focused on the process, not the substance of the community’s concerns. “It was very clear that it had been decided before the meeting,” he said. “The info we provided was definitely not taken into account.” An attempt by Innes Coun.

John Doran, president of Domicile, reflected on the bittersweet council win two days later before a speech at

cause his company tries hard to engage with neighbours. But he said the opinion of professional land-use planners holds more weight in his mind, and he stands by the development as an example of good planning, despite what the community says. “I can understand their frustrations,” Doran said. “They moved for a homogeneous single-family environment. They don’t want change.” “It’s the same reaction I’ve seen in the past: too much traffic, too much density, cheapen our property values, who knows what kind of people will move in.” It’s the same fight Doran had long ago with the community near a development he wanted to undertake in Rideau Terrace. Now, those same angry neighbours have seen how nice the development is and have moved in themselves, he said. “It’s hard going into a neighbourhood like that in Orléans because they just don’t get it,” he said. He placed the blame for the conflict on the city’s intensification policies. “If the city doesn’t want intensification in the suburbs … Well then, make the change. Don’t do it. Be clear with people like me. I can live with it. I can live with no infill in the suburbs, but make up your mind.” Thivierge saw it a different way. He referenced the second phase of the city’s infill study, which is looking at parameters to guide the height and mass of infill homes in neighbourhoods inside the Greenbelt (not including Orléans). “It’s the lifestyle of suburban communities,” Thivierge said – especially multiple-car ownership. An expensive appeal to the Ontario Municipal Board is unlikely, Thivierge said. “The decision has been made and we have to live with it,” he said. Now the community is hoping to work in partnership with Domicile through the site-plan process to “minimize the collateral damage,” Thivierge said, referring to the potential effect of townhomes on neighbouring single-family dwellings.

and finishing second in the 100m final, crossing just behind American blade runner April Holmes. “We are so thrilled,” Brown said. “We never expected she would do so well, especially so young. But it’s opened so many doors for her.” NATURAL ATHLETE

Larissa has always been active, despite her visual impairments. Until last year she was heavily involved in competitive dance, but had to quit when her vision worsened and she couldn’t decipher the choreography. Without dancing, Larissa faced a void. “She was so involved and all of a sudden we had a lot of time on our hands,” Brown said. One day in early spring, Larissa and her family visited the Terry Fox facility and saw several visually impaired athletes training. Larissa decided to try track, and joined the Ottawa Lions Club team in March. Since she had joined an able-bodied group, at first La-

rissa felt badly that her peers had to act as her guide on the track even though they were paying to run themselves. But as luck would have it, no one in Larissa’s age group was fast enough to be her guide anyway. She recently moved up to a university-level training team where the runners were able to match her speedy stride. Now she trains three nights a week with a regular “twilight meet” on Wednesday evenings. She hopes to add high jump training on Saturdays. While breaking the high jump record was a happy shock, Larissa said she will focus on her track performance so she can someday compete at the Paralympic Games. Currently, women’s high jump does not exist at the Paralympic level. “My goal this year is to beat my personal bests for the 100m and 200m, and hopefully someday Canadian records as well,” she said. Larissa will enter Grade 9 at St. Mark Catholic High School in Manotick this fall.

Sports – Larissa Brown is soaring to new heights after she smashed a long-standing Canadian high jump record on her first try July 6. The 14-year-old St. Mark Catholic High School student was already registered for two track events at the Boiling Point Track Classic, which welcomes all track and field athletes with a disability to compete at the Terry Fox athletics facility. Larissa is visually impaired and competes in category T12 (track) or F12 (field), which means she has some perception of light and movement. As a burgeoning track star, she planned to compete in

the 100-metre and 200-metre dashes. But that Thursday, she asked her coach at the Ottawa Lions Club if she could try high jump as well. With a white t-shirt tied to the bar and the help of a guide, she attempted a jump that evening and found she was a natural. She signed up for Saturday’s event. Two days later during warm-up, Larissa casually cleared 1.30 metres, the Canadian women’s F12 high jump record set in 1987. “They said they need to get an official over there to measure it,” Larissa’s mother Sue Brown said. “They knew she was going to break the record.” Larissa cleared 1.40 metres in competition, winning the event and also setting a new Canadian women’s record for the F12 category. “I couldn’t believe it. I was so surprised,” Larissa said. Six other Canadian records were broken at the seventh annual Boiling Point meet. The young field hero also performed on the track, winning first in her 200m heat

News - Last month, two teens were arrested in south Ottawa for setting fire to a chair in an open garage and following an investigation of the police arson unit, they were admitted into the youth fire setter intervention program. Fire prevention officer Peter Cutler said the goal of the program is to change a child’s behaviour through education and referrals. The fire department teaches fire safety, while Crossroads Children’s Centre, a mental health centre, steps in if the child or teen has mental health issues, he said. The intervention program was developed back in the 1980s, said Cutler, following in the footsteps of similar programs run in Toronto. “We typically deal with kids between the ages of six and 12,” said Cutler, adding the youths are usually referred by police or parents. More often than not, fire prevention officers will sit down with the whole family to discuss general fire safety tips, including having an escape plan and keeping fire sources (such as matches) out of reach from young fingers. “It’s strictly an educational program, but there are often family issues going on at the same time,” he said. “Sometimes it’s just a matter of getting mom and dad on board with fire safety tips, and telling them how to reduce access to light sources, and to teach kids to not to be afraid of firefighters.” As children grow older, crimes could become more serious, said Cutler, “There is the potential they are involved in more crime at that age,” he said. The program takes up to three sessions and ends up being a positive experience for everyone

The city’s fire department runs a fire setter program to change criminal behaviour in children. involved, he said. The program’s success rate is very high, said Cutler, and proves to be a lesson learned for the teen. “I’ve never had a kid come back for a second time,” he said. “So it’s a good success rate.” “If a parent is worried about a son or a daughter, we will do an assessment,” he said. The program is confidential and free. Based on the information presented, a specific educational strategy will be modified to address the fire setting behaviour. Upon completion of the program, the child will be presented with a certificate of achievement on behalf of OFS. According to the fire department, studies have shown that 81 per cent of children will re-offend if not involved in an intervention of some kind.

Parts of the city more vulnerable to disaster Patricia Leboeuf

pleboeuf@metroland.com

News - Ottawa is well prepared in cases of natural disaster or emergency, but some parts are more vulnerable than others, said Pierre Poirier, the city’s chief of security and emergency management. Having only one road into Constance Bay could prove a problem in some cases of emergency. “A second road is a reasonably big issue,” said Ian Glen, president of the Constance and Buckham’s Bay Community Association (CBBCA). “I wouldn’t say the top, but people are aware that if there is a forest fire and the smoke goes across the Constance Bay Road we can’t get out. Then we might have a problem.” A second road is something that people would like to see and there is even a potential location. It’s up to the developers who own the land to put the road in and not the city, said Glen. “I doubt I’ll see it in my lifetime,” he added. He isn’t particularly worried about extensive flooding disaster because there is a dam up the stream that can help control the water flow. “With respect to something like flooding in Constance Bay with a single road in and out, the city would be well served to understand and prepare

for evacuation of people in advance of the road being severed,” said Poirier. “If it were to happen, the city would have the means to access those people.” These means could include helicopters or boats or other such vehicles. The current community centre in Constance Bay is not equipped to become an emergency reception or temporary shelter, but upcoming renovations may change this. “One of the things we’ve planned for the extension of the community centre is showers which we don’t have at the moment,” said Glen. “If we get showers and a kitchen and storage for supplies, then it could be an emergency shelter if it’s needed.” It would be an ideal place for people to gather as it is high up and clear of overhanging trees. The best way to cope with an emergency is to be prepared, say emergency preparation experts. Before a disaster even occurs, people should have a plan in place. An evacuation plan should be created. “I think the first part is your own personal safety and your meeting point for family members,” said Poirier. “What is the personal safety for each individual family member?” Households should have an emergency preparedness kit in case of trouble. These kits should be mobile, easily located and allow the residents to

be self-sufficient for at least 72 hours. It is possible to purchase these kits, but it is often cheaper to create one as most items are already inside most homes. It can also be tailored to suit peoples needs. To create the city-suggested kit, fill an easy-to-carry container such as a duffle bag or backpack with a three day supply of necessary medication, a battery-operated or crank radio, flashlights and extra light bulbs, extra batteries, cash, utility knife, rope and a shovel. You should also include an ABC type fire extinguisher, a tube tent, blankets or sleeping bags, plastic sheeting, candles and matches or a lighter, extra car keys, important papers such as passport and birth certificate, one or two changes of clothing and footwear, toilet paper and other personal supplies, first aid kit, plastic garbage bags and ties, disinfectant like chlorine bleach, a map of area and compass, a adjustable wrench to shut off household gas and water, a whistle and playing cards, games, paper and pencils. Stored in a safe place and in an approved container, a small quantity of fuel for the car should be kept as well. A similar kit should be prepared for any pets with food, water, blankets, toys, medication and paperwork emergency details such as health issues, behavior information and contact information.

What to do during emergency

The city has prepared a few guides on how to deal with a disaster. It is a legal requirement to have an emergency preparedness plan for its citizens to peruse. “Are we prepared for the apocalypse? No,” said Poirier. “Are we prepared for an atomic bomb that drops on the city or those kids of things, the exaggerations? Probably not on the most part. That would create a real stressor, but for the most part if you look at what is happening we are prepared.” In case of a severe winter storm, people should stay inside as long as they are safe, warm and can feed themselves. Residents should stay in closed off rooms or well insulated basements to keep the space warm. During an earthquake, people inside buildings should remain away from windows, shelter themselves under a heavy desk or table and hold on. If there is nothing to take shelter under, people should flatten themselves against an interior wall and protect their head and neck. People outside should go to an open area and move away from things that may collapse. People in cars should stop their vehicle and avoid overhead dangers. If an area is flooded, turn off your basement furnace and the outside gas valve. Shut off electricity. If the fuse box or breaker is wet, stand on a dry

surface and using a dry wood stick to shut it off. Never cross a flood area either by foot or by car. If the water is quickly rising, escape from the area. In case of disease outbreaks, listen to the radio and follow all recommendations. Help prevent the spread by covering your month, washing your hand and surfaces and limiting contact with others or at least staying a meter or more away. If your water is contaminated, don’t drink it, put it in your mouth or use it for cooking or mixing baby formula. Follow directions on the radio. If you suspect that your water is contaminated, bring it to rolling boil for at least a full minute. Do not stop this process until all it is determined to be potable. If there is a hazardous chemical release, back off as quickly as possible and leave the area. If you have come in contact with a biological or chemical agent, you may have to go through a decontamination process. If you think you have been contaminated or know for sure, wait at a safe distance and listen to authorities. If you have left, call the Poison Information Centre for advice at 1-800-268-9017. For more information on emergency preparedness, call 311, consult the Red Pages in your phone book or go to ottawa.ca and enter “emergency preparedness” in the search box for several resources.

Day care probe looks at Ottawa toddler’s death Brier Dodge

brier.dodge@metroland.com

News - The Jérémie Audette inquest will play a part into the Ontario ombudsman’s recently announced investigation of unlicensed daycares. Jérémie, 2, drowned in the pool of an unlicensed daycare provider in Orléans in 2010. A corner’s inquest was launched into his death, which made several recommendations surrounding home pools and home daycares. Recommendations made by the coroner’s inquest jury last December included matching the ratio of adults to children at both licensed and unlicensed daycares, and requiring all unlicensed daycares to register with the provincial Ministry of Education. Currently, licensed daycare providers must include their own children in total children being cared for, with a cap of five. In unlicensed daycares, the provider’s own children aren’t counted in the five allowed.

Ombudsman André Marin announced July 15 that he would investigate how the Ministry of Education responds to complaints and concerns about unlicensed daycare providers. “Our investigation will certainly look at the Jérémie Audette case and the inquest recommendations, as well as any other previously reported serious incidents or coroner’s investigations involving issues with unlicensed daycares,” said the ombudsman’s director of communications, Linda Williamson, via email. The investigation comes on the heels of a child’s death at a home-based daycare in Vaughan, Ont. There have only been about 30 investigations of this type since 2005. The have looked at topics ranging from the property tax assessment system to funding for cancer drugs. Anyone who has information that might be relevant to the investigation is asked to contact the Ombudsman’s office at 1-800263-1830, or email info@ ombudsman.on.ca.

Nepean Kiwanis revs up for car show Steph Willems

Community - Organizers of the Nepean Kiwanis Charity Car Show are looking to build on previous years’ successes. Scheduled for Aug. 17, the fourth-annual show will once again take over the vast Bells Corners Loblaws parking lot at the corner of Robertson Road and Moodie Drive, with classic vehicles converging from across the National Capital Region. This year’s recipient of car show proceeds will be the Nepean Rideau Osgoode Community Resource Centre.

“Last year we saw about 170 vehicles and a good number of people,” said Kiwanis club member Gord Clark. “We’re hoping for a decent turnout; numbers have gone up substantially from our first two years.” Classic car owners looking to show off their rides can show up and register on site for a $10 fee. Dash plaques will be provided, and goodie bags and door prizes will be available, along with a 50/50 draw. Trophies will be handed out following judging. Residents looking to take in the sight of classic sheet metal can also enjoy onsite live music and a barbecue.

Life-changing moment lands author spot in best-seller Riverview Park woman published in Chicken Soup book Sabine Gibbins

sabine.gibbins@metroland.com

News – Moving forward has never come easy for Catina Noble. The Riverview Park resident admits she had always been a “cup half-empty” type of person. One day, she stumbled upon a short story in the best-selling “Chicken Soup for the Soul: Attitude Adjustment” book, which would ultimately lift her spirits. Noble, who has always loved to write, and recently published some of her poetry, decided she needed to adjust her own attitude and rebuild a relationship with a family member. A few years ago, Noble had experienced a falling out with her cousin, but wasn’t sure what it was about.

Noble was later invited to her cousin’s wedding, but was unable to go due to another family commitment. She kept waiting for her cousin to apologize, but for what, she didn’t know. Noble realized she missed her friendship, and one day sat down to write a letter to her. A week later, the phone rang. It was Jenny calling to thank her for the letter. The two reconciled and spoke on the phone for over an hour. A few weeks ago, Noble met Jenny’s husband and children for the first time. This moment in her life changed her way of thinking, and now she’s looking at the world in a very different way, and learning to “dance in the rain”. This life-changing moment became fodder for a short story that eventually was published in the latest “Chicken Soup for the Soul” book. An avid reader of the “Chicken Soup for the Soul” series, Noble

the series’ 20th anniversary, and decided to enter one of her stories last January. In March, she received an email from “Chicken Soup” co-author D’ette Corona telling her she had a good chance of having her story published in the book. A proof of her story, with minimal edits, soon arrived in the mail. In April, she got the final answer: yes. Noble was overjoyed, as she has never had anything published in a book of this scale. “I was telling everybody, but I felt like an idiot after because I thought, ‘What if it doesn’t actually happen?’” she said. The message of the story was a resounding one for Noble: “Life isn’t about waiting for the storm to pass. It’s about learning to dance in the rain.” This theme rang true in her own story. As she writes in “Chicken Soup”, “Just repeating that sentence over and over again makes me feel more positive and changes how I feel and react to situations that I am not normally happy with.”

When she called and told her cousin about the story being published, Jenny was ecstatic. Having this story published in a notable book such as “Chicken Soup” was a confidence booster, said Noble. “As a writer, you tell yourself to believe it (that your stories will get published), but it’s not until you actually see that it’s in print that it’s real.” A single mother of four, and with a bachelor of arts from Carleton University, Noble hopes to one day publish another short story (or two) in a “Chicken Soup” book. She says she has about a dozen pieces ripe for the picking for the novel. She’s also looking forward to publishing a collection of poetry. In total, Noble has had about 100 different written materials published in a variety of publications. Personally, this experience has taught Noble much about herself. “I’ve learned that persistence does pay off, and sometimes you don’t know what the other person is thinking or going through,:” she said.

Quartier Vanier cancelled its farmers market at the end of June before it had a chance to open for 2013. Now local farmers can be found at different locations throughout the Quartier on Saturdays, including Maison Baguettes.

News - Only weeks after the market was all but cancelled, merchants in Vanier have joined forces to support a different kind of famers market this summer. The Quartier Vanier merchants association announced the cancellation of its summer market at the end of June, before it had the chance to open for the first weekend of the season.

M.Power 46 Kanata Kourier-Standard EMC - Thursday, July 25, 2013

Only a week after that announcement, local merchants began stepping up to the plate to offer tiny pieces of land to local famers and longtime vendors in the neighbourhood. It started with gourmet food shop Jacobson’s on July 6, when owner Susan Jacobson let Rock’n’Root Farms sell their organic produce at a market stand outside the store. Cheryl Cadrin of Rock’n’Root said after the news of the cancellation, having a new location to sell in the area was very important to them. “For us, it was our only market. It was a good fit for us and when we lost it, we were scrambling a bit,” Cadrin said. “I think I was more disappointed because we had been there for five years and we had been cultivating a clientele and they were loyal to us. We wanted to be there for them.” Since that first day at Jacobson’s, Cadrin started a petition to ask residents if they wanted a market back permanently for 2014. “I don’t think it was right for Vanier to not have a market. It’s important,” she said. “It’s fair for people to have an option to buy local. The petition is also about asking if Vanier is interested, I can only say what I think. Who wouldn’t want one, but that’s my business. I get excited about it, but this is on the community. I want the community to own this.” And the community has come out in support. Accord-

ing to Vanier Community Association president Mike Bulthuis, residents and members of the association began expressing their disappointment regarding the cancelled market. Now, the association is helping spread the word about Rock’n’Root’s new location and about new business owners stepping up to offer space for local farmers. “Our role is to try and rally the community and find ways for residents to support the market,” Bulthuis said. It started on July 20, at Maison Baguette, with a jazz band and a free barbecue to draw residents, Alpenblick Farms and Kiwan Farms set up from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m. Maison Baguette owner Amos Mbenoun said it will continue every Saturday for the rest of the summer. “We need the market, we were part of it for the past three years and it was great,” Mbenoun said. He has offered up the space for free for the vendors.The shop added it hopes more vendors from the former market become involved. “Its about taking part in a community,” he said. There is also talk of working towards re-launching the market in 2014. Meetings would begin in the fall and people interested in participating or offering ideas can email marchevaniermarket@ gmail.com. There is also a petition available to sign online, at chn.ge/14Z5egd – or visit one of the stands at the market locations this Saturday.

Avoid making an important decision this week, Aries. Your mind is busy with too many ideas, and you will not be able to focus all of your attention on one task. Taurus, you may find you are focused on your finances this week. It’s a good time to assess spending habits and make some changes for the better. Gemini, you may find that luck is on your side this week and you can use this to your advantage. Take some risks you might normally be hesitant to take. You certainly are in the spotlight this week, Cancer. All of this attention may try your nerves, so you may be interested in hiding out somewhere. Later in the week, you will have the chance. Leo, a discussion with a friend could be significant this week, inspiring you to expand your goals and pursue new dreams with confidence. Be thankful for the newfound inspiration. Protect your privacy this week, Virgo. Though nothing serious is on the horizon, now is a good time emphasize safety and security for you and your family.

Restlessness settles in this week, Libra. You might want to plan a little adventure, whether it is a weekend trip or a night out on the town. The goal is to change the scenery. Scorpio, stay on top of bills, paperwork and anything else that helps you to get organized. Once you’re finished catching up, resolve to be more organized going forward. You will have to put forth some extra effort this week, Sagittarius. It may feel like others aren’t pulling their weight, but you still need to do what you have to do to get the job done. Capricorn, take some extra time cleaning up in anticipation of an unexpected guest. While company is always welcome, you want to have a tidy home to show off. Aquairus, enlist others to lend a helping hand this week. Others may not offer their time and effort, so be proactive in seeking help with an important task. Pisces, it may be tempting to stay at home. But you have responsibilities, and they need to be tended to. You can always relax once your work is done.
