adam.kveton@metroland.com
The Scott Tokessy Memorial Gold Glove baseball tournament has managed to attract more teams than ever before in its 20th year, which saw $20,000 donated to CHEO on Aug. 8. Sixty-one teams from
the northeastern United States, Drummondville, Que., Oakville, Ottawa and places in between took part in the tournament from Aug. 7-9, mostly at Walter Baker Park. The tournament raises money through a silent auction, raffle prizes, corporate sponsors and donations, said Lionel Dubois, the tournament director. See KANATA, page 11

BeaverTails grand opening About 103 balloons, one for every BeaverTails shop in the world, are set loose above Ottawa’s first westend BeaverTails location during the ribbon cutting on Aug. 12. The grand opening of the shop, located at Tanger Outlets across from the Canadian Tire Centre, is also the first BeaverTails shop in Ottawa to offer the company’s full line of food offerings. From right, Kanata South Coun. Allan Hubley, Kanata North Coun. Marianne Wilkinson, Tanger general manager Eric Topolnisky, Mayor Jim Watson and BeaverTails founder Grant Hooker release the balloons. Watson, who described BeaverTails as a ‘great Ottawa success story’ presented Hooker with a plaque in honour of the shop opening.

pair of vehicles used in the robbery suggests a certain level of effort in the planning of the robbery, the crime as a whole was fairly straightforward. The presence of a handgun and the threat put the crime on the “spectrum of violence,” he said, though he added that police cannot be 100 per cent certain that the handgun was real, as it was not found in the suspects’ possession at the time of the arrest. “We haven’t recovered a firearm at this point,” said Haarbosch on Aug. 12.
Haarbosch would not describe the pair’s previous convictions, though he said the first man taken into custody is known to Ottawa police, while Webb is less so. No jewelry was found in the suspects’ possession when they were pulled over, said Haarbosch. The first two charges of possession of property obtained by crime relate to the two vehicles. The third is in relation to property in the suspects’ possession tied to a break-and-enter south of Stittsville. Haarbosch said that while the

Police have arrested the second suspect in relation to a brazen jewelry robbery that took place at Harden’s Jewellers in Hazeldean Mall on July 29. Robert Webb was picked up in Montreal on Aug. 16 after going on the run last week when another suspect was arrested during a Quebec traffic stop. According to police information, a man entered the jewelry store at about 1 p.m. July 29, walked up to a display case, pulled out a hammer and smashed the glass. The man, who wore nothing to hide his face, grabbed an undisclosed quantity of jewelry and left the scene, but not before threatening to kill a witness if he interfered, and showing a handgun tucked into his waistband. The robber then got into a waiting vehicle containing a second suspect, and the pair drove off to nearby Abbeyhill Drive, dumped the vehicle and got into a second one waiting there. They then fled the area, said police. But two days later, that same car containing two men was pulled over for a traffic infraction in Repentigny, Que., north of Montreal. Staff Sgt. Michael Haarbosch with the Ottawa police robbery unit described it as “a significant development in the case when the police stopped the vehicle with the occupants in the vehicle,” as Ottawa police had not yet identified the suspects, but had identified the second vehicle used in the robbery based on witness information. The two men found in the vehicle were then linked to the robbery. However, only one of the two men in the vehicle was arrested at the time. That man, who Haarbosch said is believed to have been the one to enter the jewelry store, was arrested on a parole warrant. The second, who police have identified as Robert Webb, remained at large until Monday. The men have been jointly charged with robbery with a firearm, theft of a motor vehicle, three counts of possession of property obtained by crime under $5,000, conspiracy to commit an indictable offence and one count of uttering threats.

Last ribfest of the summer to be held in Kanata Organizer hopes to expand into east end, create lobster festival Adam Kveton
adam.kveton@metroland.com
With vacations ending, the weather cooling off and kids soon back to school, Kanata and surrounding residents will have at least one thing to look forward to in September. The organizers of this year’s Capital Ribfest which took place out front of city hall are bringing their food, smoky and smothered in sauce, to Kanata’s Walter Baker Park from Sept. 10-13. Organizers are calling the event the first in their Suburbalicious offerings, which aim to bring food festivals to Ottawa’s suburbs. Heading up the event is Les Gagné, the former executive director of the Sparks Street Business Improvement Area. He brought his experi-
ence helping to grow the Ribfest and Poutinefest events on Sparks Street to his own independent offerings of poutine and rib festivals in front of city hall in May and August. With the Sparks Street and city hall ribfests, the Kanata Ribfest will be Ottawa’s third of the year, but Gagné said Ottawans are far from ribbed out. “It’s going to be the third in Ottawa, but the first in the suburbs, which I’m excited about,” he said. Gagné said he was inspired to bring the festival to Kanata after taking a ribfest booth to this year’s Canada Day in Kanata event. “I just couldn’t believe how tight the community is and how many people came out to support the whole Canada Day festivities,” he said. Expecting the rib festival to draw people from Barrhaven, Stittsville, Arnprior, Carleton Place and elsewhere – many of whom wouldn’t necessarily make the trek downtown – and including possibilities of partnering with the high tech

can,” he said. The Kanata Ribfest will also bring additions to the experience, said Gagné.
“There is apparently a big demand for barbecue, and obviously we want to bring the experience to them if we
community and the Ottawa Senators, Gagné said there are plenty of good reasons to bring the event to Kanata.
“We are certainly going to have live music and that’s going to feature a lot of great local entertainment,” he said. The event will also include a large corn roast, with a corn eating contest. “I think going forward just because of the cool grounds we have there at Walter Baker Park, I think it’s going to allow us to really broaden what that festival looks like in two, three years down the road,” he said, hinting the festival could grow to include more types of entertainment, while maintaining its barbecue roots. “If everything goes as well as we think it will, we obviously would like to be going to Orléans next year, because again these are really committed (areas) and they are their own communities, so they can sustain these types of events,” he said. Gagné’s organization, Feature Media and Promotions, which will be rebranded this fall to Feature Festivals, is also hoping to bring a lobster and seafood festival to town, said Gagné.

Candidate expense limits skyrocket John Carter john.carter@metroland.com
One clear indication of how much longer this year’s federal election campaign is compared to the last two is the dramatic increase in the amount of money Kanata-Carleton candidates can spend trying to get elected. Because of the 11-week campaign, candidates in the riding can spend up to $212,958 (preliminary figures), more than double the $104,000 in Carleton-Mississippi Mills in the 2011 election and about $97,000 in 2008. Of course, those two campaigns were only just over five weeks in length. The major boost in allowed spending has led to speculation that the Conservatives called the Oct. 19 election early so to take advantage of having more money than the other parties. Election expenses limits for a riding are based on the number of names on the preliminary lists of electors. The limits are increased for election periods longer than 37 days. Meanwhile, Elections Canada has issued a reminder that individual political contribution (including loan and loan guarantee) limits have increased to $1,500 annually. Cash contributions of more than $20 are prohibited. The limits will increase by $25 on Jan. 1 of each year. More information is available at elections.ca. RETURNING OFFICE
Keith H. Antol is the returning officer for the new riding of Kanata-Carleton. The riding’s returning office is located in the Hazeldean Mall at 300 Eagleson Rd. in Kanata. It is open Monday to Friday from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. and can be reached toll-free at 1-866-241-7765. This early in the campaign no candidates are officially confirmed in the riding, but there is plenty of time. The nomination deadline for candidates is almost a month and a half away – Monday, Sept. 28. The Conservative, Libertal, NDP and
Green parties have all chosen candidates in the riding, made up of parts of the the old ridings of Carleton-Mississippil Mills and Nepean-Carleton. An extra day for advance voting has been added, with advance polls open around the ridiing scheduled for Oct. 9 to 12. ELECTION SIGN RESTRICTIONS
There may be federal election campaign signs sprouting up in many lawns in Canada, but not until today (Aug. 20) in Ottawa. Or at least, they shouldn’t have. A city bylaw restricts when election signs may be posted. They can’t be erected on private property until 60 days prior to an election, or Aug. 20 in the case of the Oct. 19 federal election. The public property regulation is even more restrictive, with signs not allowed until 30 days prior to an election, or Sept. 19 for the federal election. Enforcement by the city is conducted on a complaint basis, or proactively in the event the placement of a sign causes a public safety or a line of sight problems. On public property, signs may be removed and impounded without notice. In the case of private property, notice is given, with a specified period of time for compliance. If there is no compliance, the sign may be removed and impounded. As well, election signs must be removed within 48 hours following election days. Signs still in place following the 48-hour period may be removed and impounded accordingly, although notice is typically given to allow candidates to collect their signs. Election signs may be placed on the road allowance of city streets but must not interfere with the safe movement of vehicles or pedestrians. For safety reasons, election signs are not permitted on central boulevards or medians, and may not be placed within 50 centimetres of a sidewalk, or where there is no sidewalk, within two metres of the roadway, or within 50 centimetres of the edge of a shoulder.
Making votes count Resource centre looks for residents to take part in voting workshops Jessica Cunha jessica.cunha@metroland.com
A new initiative looks to engage Kanata women living on low incomes to get involved in this year’s federal election. The Western Ottawa Community Resource Centre is seeking residents to take part in workshops on Sept. 16 and 18 as part of Making Votes Count Where We Live – a joint project between the City for All Women Initiative, the WOCRC, the Coalition of Community Health and Resource Centres of Ottawa. Those selected to participate will learn the skills necessary to facilitate a community café on voting, said Maria Friis, community developer with Western Ottawa Community Resource Centre. “We’re looking for women who are living on low-income and women who are interested in learning about the elections and also in sharing their perspectives and insights,” she said. “The federal election, although far away, has an impact on what happens in our daily lives.” With “dismal” voter turnout in the last elections – less than 40 per cent of people cast a ballot during Ottawa’s municipal election last year, the 2014 provincial election saw a 51 per cent voter

A new initiative is encouraging women living on low incomes to take part in workshops on the upcoming federal election. Those selected to participate will learn the skills necessary to facilitate a community café on voting. turnout, while a slightly higher voter turnout of 61 per cent was counted in the 2011 federal election – the initiative aims to get more people engaged. “The voice of people living on low income often doesn’t show up in elections and political processes,” said Friis. “We can do better. It’s time for people living on low income to be heard in the 2015 federal election.” Project partners interviewed more than 200 people, including francophones, recent immigrants, rural residents, Aboriginal people, those with disabilities, seniors and youth about their voting experience. “People who have more money have more ability to do things, but with voting it’s equal,” responded a West Carleton participant. “Every person regardless of money has one vote. One person, one vote.” The majority of participants felt positive about voting, but those living on low-incomes are
often so busy with other immediate issues – work, schooling, daycare, and other obligations – that casting a ballot falls by the wayside, said Friis. The training workshops aim to change that. “It’s to encourage all people to get involved in learning about the different party platforms in the upcoming elections,” she said. “It’s bringing women together from all across the city for the training and then (they will) go back to their communities to have conversations about voting and the concerns in their own areas.” The WOCRC will support transportation and child and family care costs, while an honorarium will be provided in recognition of women using their new skills and insights in the community. For more information and to apply, contact Maria Friis at friis@wocrc.ca or Julie McKercher at mckercher@wocrc.ca, visit makingvotescount.ca or call the WOCRC at 613-591-3686.

Taxi mess does no one a favour
T
axis drivers and their customers have been dealing with a perfect storm; one that is costing everyone time and money. The arrival of Uber in the city has created serious challenges to the existing system. No one wins. And on top of this, because of a new deal with the airport authority which wants to maximize revenues, the taxi service broker Coventry Connections has decided now is a good time to bump up fees for transporting passengers who arrive at the airport in need of ground transportation. Of course, those fees donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t apply to Uber cars. Taxi drivers may own a taxi plate or drive for a plateâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s owner. That means some drivers have invested in plates that have suddenly dropped in value, as almost anyone with a car can drive for Uber. The taxi drivers who drive a car but donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t own the plate, any increase in fees will come right out of their pocket or push people to cheaper options: ie. Uber. Now is not a good time to bump up fees. Now is
the time to make changes to the existing system to better compete with newcomers. As a public relations move, shutting down transportation from the airport by regular cabs helps no one. Passengers left stranded wonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t be inclined to support the taxi drivers; it simply pushes more people into the hands of the part-time drivers at Uber. The taxi driversâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; dilemma goes deeper than a protest or a sound bite. They have a case to make. Drivers with taxi plates on their bumper are mostly full-time workers trying to survive, and probably support a family. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not fair that they see their livelihoods turned upside down in the blink of an eye. And adding fees they must pay out of their own pocket, or pass on to customers who may feel gouged is not the recipe for a promising future. The city promises it will study the taxi-Uber question and address it with new regulations. Until that new set of rules is drafted, fees should remain unchanged.

CHARLES GORDON Funny Town cyclists before they get out of their cars, and it is probably also to tell cyclists to be careful of car doors. Fine. But does anybody seriously think any of this will solve much? Instead of forcing everyone to decipher the street painting, wouldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t it be better to take a truly serious look at the relationship between bicycles and cars? The fact is that cars and bicycles will never coexist properly on the streets. There will always be people on both sides who are careless or reckless or too aggressive.

On most of our city streets there is too little room for error. They are too narrow. One mistake, one miscalculation, one moment of inattention and somebody gets hurt â&#x20AC;&#x201D; most often the cyclist. Sharrows wonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t solve that. Advertising wonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t either, nor will Internet pleading. Public education campaigns are a nice idea but not everyone will be paying attention. Wider streets would help but there isnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t the room to widen most of them, and there isnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t the money either. So itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s time to stop with the half measures, time to bite the bullet, time to be bold and creative. And that means one thing: Make some streets bicycles-only. Ban cars from them to make them truly safe for cyclists. And perhaps go the other way too: ban bicycles from some streets, the ones that are too busy and too narrow. Have some north-south streets that are bicycles-only. Have some east-
west streets. Ban bicycles from some others. And then â&#x20AC;&#x201C; yes â&#x20AC;&#x201C; get ready for a mighty howl from just about everybody. Cyclists, motorists, merchants. The thing is, theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll get used to it. People adjust. Then we might see traffic moving more smoothly for the motorists. We might find cyclists operating in a safer environment. We might even find a new kind of profitable commerce opening up on the quieter, bicycle-only streets. Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m sure Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m not the only one who would enjoy strolling beside a street where there were no cars. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s less difficult, after all, for bicycles and pedestrians to co-exist. On that stroll, Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d be looking for somewhere to stop and have a coffee. Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d be looking to window-shop at leisure and perhaps even buy something. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s time to try this.

Stewards of the earth
F
indings from a Canada Parks Council study two years ago show that the more time people spend in nature, the more likely they are to care for the natural environment. Organizations in the Ottawa area, such as Ottawa Riverkeeper – a group of volunteers that protect the Ottawa River for swimmers, boaters and fishers – is a good example of natural space users that have easily made the transition to stewards. Sadly, the opposite can also be true. As city dwellers flock to local natural environments to escape the hustle and bustle or heat of the city, there are among them those who abuse the space. Sandbanks Provincial Park has been a favourite family destination for a few years now. Halfway between Ottawa and Toronto, and a frequent destination for Montrealers, Sandbanks is popular beach and camping spot for city folk.
BRYNNA LESLIE Capital Muse
A group called Friends of Sandbanks has worked for years to inform visitors about the unique designation of the sand dunes, the largest freshwater dune system in the world. Despite their work preserving hiking trails, removing invasive species, running a nature store and summer outdoor theatre toward helping people to a greater understanding of the space, they continue to face an uphill battle against day beach users and campers who are determined to litter and destruct. Two years ago, we arrived at the park to find the fire pit on our campsite had been relocated by the previous tenants – multiple fire pits are a terrible rape of the organic land beneath. Even worse, it had been used as a garbage pit; it was full of
smashed alcohol bottles, chip bags and other non-recyclables. The site was covered in broken glass, plastic bread tags, tiny plastic envelopes from juice box straws and other miniscule pieces of metal and plastic. It became a pastime for my older children – stewards in training—to collect tiny morsels of crap from the ground to put them in the waste bin. Generally, we’ve found Gatineau Park visitors to be more considerate of nature. In the last visitor study conducted in 2011, the National Capital Commission determined that 2.7 million people visit the park each year, making it second to Banff as Canada’s most popular federal park. Gatineau also holds the distinction as the only federal park that is not run by Parks Canada; the park is overseen by the NCC. In July, the NCC put out a call to vendors to launch a major economic impact study – the first in 17 years – to determine how people use the park, where they come from, how local spending affects surrounding communities, and if they’re
Local Events
aware of the NCC’s mandate to protect this natural space. Based on my most recent visit to the campground at Philippe Lake, management of which is further outsourced to a private company called Demsis, I’m not sure the preservation issue is top of mind for visitors. The lake offers three public beaches, two of which are for day users. Entrance to the Philippe Lake sector has been automated this year, which is efficient, but it also means most day visitors have no interaction with park staff during their visits. As a result, there seems to be no clear communication of the regulations to park visitors. Day users to the park may not realize, for example, that Gatineau Park is a federally-
protected natural space, which means it’s forbidden to migrate wood from outside the park, and it’s also prohibited to remove anything from the 13,000-hectare site. Foraging for firewood is not allowed. In past years I’ve seen the odd person, ignorant of these rules, gathering sticks in the forest. But this is the first year, I’ve seen rampant abuse of the rule – including campers showing up with trunks full of firewood – which makes them subject to a fine of up to $50,000 – and day users gathering wood and building illegal fire pits adjacent to the beach. For the first time in many years, campers are allowed to consume alcohol on their campsites. Booze used to be R0383078702
forbidden. Alcohol on the beach is still not allowed, communicated to day users by ancient signs that show various outlawed activities, such as feeding birds and swimming outside the buoy line. But it’s rarely spoken. This year is the first time I’ve had to collect glass beer bottles from the sand, clearing the dangerous litter of beach users. As the NCC prepares its economic study to inform its next master plan, it’s worth considering the role of communication to park visitors to ensure that, even as the park grows in popularity and proves to be an economic boon, all users are simultaneously working to preserve this protected natural space.

End of life hard to imagine To the editor,
Re: Column, “The inevitability of dying,” by Brynna Leslie, Aug. 13. I found the article by Brynna Leslie interesting. I have never been ill until this year. I am 66 and last month I went into the hospital for a problem and came out with a DX of stage 4 colon cancer (four to five years life expectancy). Since then I have been surprised by how many people are receiving these “surprise” diagnoses. It is true that we are all dying, however, the life stories for people in my situation are interesting. It is well known that everyone is dying. What is not well understood is how people should react to the surprise news. The reactions will be different depending on each person’s personality, family situation, etc. In my case I naively assumed that I would live to 95-plus and never be sick since I have no family history, many relatives with great
longevity, never been sick until this year, etc. I have many reasons to want to live for many more years since I am currently enjoying: • our 43-plus years of marriage with lots of travel, fun at home, friends. • my two sons, age 36 and 34. • my two grandchildren, age two years and two months. • doing engineering consulting work in an important area of systems engineering and accident prevention. • a dynamic church with many friends. • reading books and watching movies. • going for walks along the Ottawa River and watching sunsets at Petrie Island. It is hard to imagine all this coming to an end in four or five years even though we all know that dying is inevitable. I know that many people are snuffed out in minutes in car accidents or other disasters, however, the four- to five-year period creates an interesting scenario to think about. Robert Fletcher Ottawa

Kanata wins Junior A championship Continued from page 1
Dubois attributed some of the tournament’s success this year to the inclusion of younger teams, which started last year. The tournament now welcomes teams from Rookie (6-8 years old), Minor (9 and 10 years old), Intermediate (11-12 years old) and Junior (13 and 14 years old). But overall, he said people rally around the tournament because of the great cause it supports. The tournament is a memorial for Scott Tokessy, a young Kanata baseball player who died after having an irregular heartbeat while rounding the bases after hitting a home run. He died several days before his 12 birthday. “Every single dollar that we make goes back to the cause,” said Dubois – namely, CHEO’s cardiology department. With the help of local sponsors, community members and dedicated participants, the tournament has grown to become the largest charity little league baseball tournament in Canada and the U.S., he said. “It’s fun to see the community

Dubois. “He threw a strike, too,” he added. In preparation for the tournament, Scott Tokessy field at Walter Baker Park underwent some renovations thanks to Kanata South Coun. Allan Hubley and Thomas Cavanagh Construction. “(Hubley) asked Greg Tokessy, Scott’s dad, if he could have anything

And he asked for the scoreboard,” said Dubois. However, Cavanagh went above and beyond, he said, and built roofs above the dugouts and will be installing a bench between two large rocks on which are plaques telling Scott Tokessy’s story. Overall, Dubois said he is overwhelmed by how well the tournament has done over the years and in
its 20th year. “A community comes together,” he said. “It’s great to see.” The winners of the tournament were: - Minor A: Fayetteville - Minor B: High Park - Major A: Brooklea - Major B: Drummondville - Junior A: Kanata - Junior B: Hull - Rookie: High Park
Good hearing but trouble with conversation? A lot of people have trouble catching what people say, especially in group situations, despite having good hearing. What a lot of people don’t know is that this may be caused by damage to the so-called motor or amplifier function of special cells in the ear. A new type of hearing aid can help balance this out. A great many people have difficulty hearing others clearly on a daily basis. Bad acoustics, unclear pronunciation, background noise and music often make it challenging to catch what people say. This results in them having to repeatedly ask questions, straining to hear and perhaps increasingly avoiding discussions in large groups. As mentioned earlier, this may be caused by malfunctions in special cells in the ear. According to a theory proposed by hearing researchers, “motor cells” are a type of hair cell responsible for amplifying quiet sounds. They vibrate up to 20,000 times per second. If these hair cells do not work properly then quiet sounds

Closing dates and operating hours for most outdoor pools and wading pools vary between August 16 and August 30. Information about the operating hours of your favourite wading pool or swimming pool is available online at ottawa.ca or by calling 3-1-1. Splash pads Most of the City’s splash pads will continue to operate between 9 a.m. to 9 p.m. until September 16. New Bus Only Lane I am pleased to report completion of another major transit and commuter improvement for residents of Kanata. A new bus only lane has been opened on the 417 between Pinecrest and Woodroffe.
Chief among the advice that Roberto Alomar had for young baseball players gathered in Ottawa on Aug. 13 was this: believe in yourself and you can do whatever you want with the right amount of passion and dedication. The former Blue Jays player, 12-time all-star and Baseball Hall of Fame inductee joined Canadian Little League Championship players, coaching staff and players’ families for the tournament’s Champions Dinner at Algonquin College
This change was first suggested by transit users who found the buses were slowing down when they had to join traffic from the Pinecrest ramp to the Woodroffe entrance to the Transitway. Working with Councillors Mark Taylor and Rick Chiarelli, we secured the funding to ensure the project was completed as quickly as possible.

Alomar took the opportunity to offer guidance to the young players in pursuit of the Canadian title. “Don’t let anybody put you down. If you tell yourself that you’re gonna be somebody in life, I know with a lot of hard work and dedication you can achieve that goal,” Alomar said. “And remember guys, you guys control your own destiny, not your parents, not your friends, only yourself. You have to be strong mentally to say, ‘I’m gonna stay on the right path and I know one day, I’m gonna make my parents proud, I’m gonna make myself proud.’” Alomar joined the players throughout the last day of round-robin games, throwing the first pitch at the day’s noon game between Ontario and British Columbia and meeting with the players – no coaches or parents – before dinner. “It was amazing meeting him,” said East Nepean Eagles player Michael Stremlaw, 13. “Obviously he’s someone to look up to, and to hear him, the speech was amazing.” The Eagles played the final game of the day against Quebec’s NDG Lynx team, who they defeated 14-2, tying the Eagles with teams from British Columbia and Ontario with a win-loss record of 5-1. Ultimately the top three teams’ ratios of minimum runs allowed broke the tie, putting British Columbia’s White Rock All Stars in the top spot going into the semi-finals, with Toronto’s High Park Braves in second place and the East Nepean Eagles in third. Finishing in fourth place, Atlantic Canada’s Glace Bay McDonalds Colonels joined the top three teams in the semifinals. Semi-final day, Aug. 15, ended with the Eagles defeating the High Park Braves 2-1, while the White Rock All Stars won their game against Glace Bay 11-1. The Eagles went up against White Rock in the championship game on Aug. 16, but lost 16-0. White Rock now represents Canada in the Little League World Series in Williamsport, Pa., which begins on Aug. 20. See page 17 for game photos

Sens hope to hype with pre-season tour adam.kveton@metroland.com
The Ottawa Senators are bringing players and some pre-season excitement to their fans with the second annual Hometown Tour, starting Aug. 18. The tour sees 12 days of free events at Canadian Tire locations in 12 different communities in eastern Ontario and western Quebec featuring two Senators players interacting with fans and signing autographs. Senators defenceman Cody Ceci took part in some of the tour stops last year and will be again this year. “Meeting all the fans was a great time and to see all the support was really cool for us,” said Ceci. The events aim to get fans to show their Sens pride to win tickets and display their skills with some interactive games. Those include ball hockey matches, mini stick games on mini inflatable rinks, a shot speed and accuracy test and more, said the team’s director of fan and community development, Aaron Robinson. “We have lots of opportunities to interact with the fans,” he said. “(The Hometown Tour) is a chance for us to get out and thank fans and get ready for the season.” Robinson said he expects there to be more prizes available this year, with fans able to sign up to win free tickets to Senators games, as well as ticket giveaways for people who show up in their best Sens gear to show their love for the team. But the main attraction is the players, who will sign autographs at each event. The Senators will reveal which players will be at which tour stop the Monday before the tour.
Hometown Tour stops will take place at the following locations in OttawaGatineau: Aug. 18 • Gloucester in Ottawa at 2010 Ogilvie Rd. from 4 to 7:30 p.m. Aug. 19 •Gatineau at 700 Maloney Blvd. West from 2 to 5:30 p.m. • Hull at 355 Blvd. de la Carrière from 4 to 7:30 p.m. Aug. 20 • Nepean at 1820 Merivale Rd. from 2 to 5:30 p.m. Autographs will be given to those with wrist bands only, with more than 200 available at each Canadian Tire location starting at 9 a.m. on the day of the tour stop. The event is both a chance for Senators players to see fans from far and wide, but also see a bit more of the communities their fans call home, said Robinson. “Fans travel a ways to come see us a lot of times, and now it’s our turn to go to them and get our players to see what eastern Ontario and western Quebec is all about because sometimes they don’t necessarily get out past Ottawa,” he said. Ceci said he was amazed by the attendance at last year’s tour stops. “You don’t really realize how many fans there are outside in the smaller communities until you get there and you see a huge line of people,” he said. Senators players are starting to filter into the city to start training early, said Ceci. “It just shows that everyone is committed to the season and we are all ready to get back at it,” he said. With a good end to last season, Ceci said he and the team hope to keep that en-

THE NEXT KANATA NORTH TOWN HALL MEETING is on September 14 in the Owen Prince Room at the Kanata Senior’s Centre, 2500 Campeau Drive. As this is the first meeting since June, there will be updates on many ongoing items from mosquitoes to development, to traffic calming, to new development applications. One new application is for a retirement residence located on part of the property along the Goulbourn Forced Road near Kanata Ave. Information on having Kanata Ave. as a Main Street and an application for development in the Centrum will also be discussed. Plan to attend to be informed about your community. EXPANSION LANDS MEETING for residents from Celtic Ridge and Windance, who back onto the open field, has now been set for Wednesday September 23 at 7pm at St. John’s Church, 325 Sandhill Dr. This meeting is specifically to determine the best way to deal with the new development taking place directly behind their homes and what possible buffers could be provided. My position has always been to have a buffer open space strip that would protect the existing trees (except for the Ash which are unfortunately dying) and provide a recreational path to connect into the new development. PARK & RIDE PUBLIC MEETING has been set for Thursday September 24 at 7pm in the Minto Room at the Richcraft Recreation Complex, 4101 Innovation. Staff will present the plans for the total project, as well as, work for Phase I to be built in 2016. Phase I work includes new traffic lights at the bus entrance off Terry Fox, an entrance with traffic lights off Innovation, a connection to the Goulbourn Forced Road and approximately 300 parking spots. Timing for the Phase II, to add more than 600 more parking spots, will be based on demand. HEAD START FOR YOUNG WOMEN is holding a debate workshop on Tuesday, August 25 from 5 – 7:30pm in the Councillor’s Lounge at City Hall. The workshop will be led by Golsa Ghamari, a business lawyer at Hazlo Law and member of Head Start’s advisory panel. Primarily for young women (under 30) this is an open session. Join this event by going to “Head Start for Young Women in Ottawa” site on Facebook or just stop by on August 25.

Bryce Desrochers made his way around the four bases with so much joy, he couldn’t help but laugh the entire way around the ball diamond.

Everything had finally come together for one crazy dream he had, a dream his family and community followed through on. Bryce was watching Extreme Makeover: Home Edition with his mother one night, and saw a boy on television go to a Miracle League field in his home town. The field had a rubberized surface, and no puddles or angry ruts for a wheelchair to get stuck in. This was baseball that Bryce, who has cerebral palsy, could actually play. “If he decides he wants to

Miracle League fields make the difficult easier for athletes Continued from page 14
“We saw people kicking up and doing things and saying yes, yes, yes, not no, no, no,” Michelle said. The Miracle League of Ottawa became its own non-profit, and has fundraised to build the diamond on city donated land on Navan Road. “Over three years ago when we started this project, I had doubts,” Rolly, Bryce’s dad, said. “But as we started moving forward and made contact with David (Gourlay from the Champions for Ottawa Baseball), at that point, I really saw the dream start to really come forward. We reached out to the Rotarians, and from there, there was no looking back.” The Jays Care Foundation, a charitable branch of the Toronto Blue Jays, pitched in a significant amount - $210,000 – to see the project meet its fundraising goals. The group also received $25,000 through the Kraft Celebration Tour, when they were nominated as one of the top 10 community development projects in Canada. The city matched donations for the project. Bryce, Rolly and Michelle were at
the field on Aug. 14, to help the board of directors, sponsors, and community members officially open the field. When Bryce, assisted by Rolly, hit the very first pitch, thrown by Blue Jays alumnus and Word Series winner Duane Ward, it meant the dream had officially become reality. “To be the first one to hit that ball, it just felt like it was really good,” Bryce

tion – crossing the finish line only half a second behind the Brazil’s Odair Ferreira Dos Santos and his guide. The Brazilian duo were disqualified after finishing first in the 5,000-metre race earlier that week, but managed to earn snag gold in the 1,500-metre race and hold onto it. This time around, Dunkerley’s silver medal remained just that. Dunkerley – who is a member of Ottawa South’s Ottawa Lions Track and Field Club – was upgraded from a silver medal finish to be the gold medal winner in the men’s 5,000-metre race on Aug. 10. It was a gold medal that he felt was somewhat tarnished by circumstance. Dunkerley and his guide – Orléans resident Josh Karanja – finished the race just behind Ferreira Dos Santos, initially taking a silver medal and were proud to have it. When Ferreira Dos Santos was officially disqualified from the race the following day, Dunkerley was awarded the gold medal for the race. Despite what sounds like it could be the bonus on top of a well-run race, Dunkerley said it was a bittersweet victory. “We feel good about the way we raced,” he said. “Obviously we’re really happy to win, but it’s not
quite the way we would have wanted to win, just with the circumstances of the Brazilians being disqualified.” According to Dunkerley, Ferreira Dos Santos’s disqualification was the result of a clerical mistake, rather than any violation of rules that would have given the Brazilian runner an unfair advantage in the race. Dunkerley said Ferreira Dos Santos was disqualified for stating on the start sheet that he would have the help of two guides throughout the race, while ultimately running with one. “It’s a technical violation. To be honest, we weren’t aware of the rule either,” Dunkerley said, adding that he and Karanja supported Ferriera Dos Santos’s reinstatement in the race before officials cemented the disqualification. “For us, we want to go up against them fair and square and if they do something wrong in the race that’s a clear infraction, that’s different, but in this situation it didn’t have a bearing on the race so it’s a little weird.” Still, Dunkerley considered his close finish behind the Brazilian runner in the 5,000-metre race a significant accomplishment.

Dunkerley gives up gold to Brazilian duo Continued from page 18
Dunkerley said that because Brazilian runners are some of his toughest opponents in races, it’s a goal of his to close the gap between him and those runners. He accomplished that on Monday and feels that was the real highlight of the race. “We’ve raced them for quite a few years and they’ve always been really strong and we were a lot closer to them in that race,” Dunkerley said. “So we took a lot of encouragement from that and we felt
like we were able to execute our race.” Although Ferriera Dos Santos eventually got his gold medal at the end of the Aug. 14 race, Dunkerley was able to close the gap between himself and his Brazilian rival to a mere half-second, finishing even closer to Ferriera Dos Santos than in the 5,000-metre race. “I’m happy that there were no complications and it would have been nice to beat them fair and square,” he said. “But this will keep me hungry for next time.”
He hopes to beat Ferriera Dos Santos fair and square in the 2016 Paralympics in Rio, and although he won’t know for months whether he will qualify to compete in the 2016 Games, he is confident both he and Ferriera Dos Santos will be there to compete again. “I think we have a good chance of going to Brazil if everything goes according to plan,” Dunkerley said. “Based on where we are right now, and barring injury or health problems, I think we stand a good chance of being on the (Paralympic) team.”

Phil Sweetnam has been recognized for his 35 years of service with the Pinhey’s Point Foundation. He was presented with a plaque noting his years of service following a summer lecture presentation at the Pinhey’s Point Historic Site on the Ottawa River in rural Kanata last Friday evening, Aug. 14. Mr. Sweetnam was one of the founding members of the Pinhey’s Point Foundation 35 years ago and he remains on the Foundation’s Board of Directors to this day. Mr. Sweetnam is a Stittsville businessman who operates the Fringewood North housing community on Hazeldean Road. He is also the current vice-chair of the Stittsville Village Association as well as the treasurer of the Goulbourn Museum and a longstanding member of the Board of Directors of the Mississippi Valley Conservation Authority. The plaque presentation to Mr. Sweetnam followed a lecture by retired Carleton University professor Dr. Sandra Campbell about World War One nursing sister Annie Green from Eastern Ontario. Ruby Pinhey, whose family lived at Pinhey’s Point, was also a nursing sister in the First World War.
Pinhey’s Point Historic Site is hosting an archaeological dig this weekend as part of the city’s Archaeology Month. A certified archaeologist will lead excavations on a portion of the property that hasn’t been surveyed before, said museum administrator Brahm Lewandowski. Fragments of a foundation have been found at the site of the dig. “These are areas that haven’t been dug up yet so there’s a good chance we could find some artefacts or remnants of what the site looked like,” he said. “It’s a neat opportunity. It’s real honest-to-goodness archaeology.” There will be a children’s dig set up as well in a different area, where they will be “guaranteed to find something,” said Lewandowski. This is the first time the historical site is hosting a public dig. “This is an opportunity for you

Art on the Grass offers activities for all ages Jessica Cunha
jessica.cunha@metroland.com
The third annual Art on the Grass will offer something for everyone on Saturday, Aug. 22. From outdoor painting sessions to children’s activities to vendor stalls, there’s plenty to see and do during the West Carleton Arts Society’s event. “There’s a lot of variety,” said organizer Lis Allison, member of the arts society. “There will be enjoyable activities for all ages.” More than 25 vendors will have fine art and original hand-made crafts on offer, including jewellers, potters, photographers, painters, woodworkers and fibre artists. Live entertainment will be provided by Ottawa folk rock, blues and instrumental musician Spencer Scharf, and the mini mobile circus of Dr. Kaboom. A children’s tent will be set up where youngsters can paint their own masterpieces with
the help of Jeff Banks of JB Arts in Almonte. Painters of all ages can register the day of, before 10 a.m., for a “plein air” paint out that will take place throughout Carp. Registrants will be given a map of the village and can choose where they want to paint, said Allison. The cost to register is $10 for adults and $5 for youth under age 18. Prizes will be awarded for first, second and third place. Painters must bring their own art supplies. Art on the Grass takes place at the Carp Fairgrounds from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m., rain or shine, although shine is preferable, said Allison. The Carp Farmers’ Market also takes place at the same time, so “it’s two events for one,” said Allison. “It’s fun, there’s something for everybody. It’s a community art event.” Parking and admission are free. For details, visit westcarletonartssociety.ca.
The Richmond Fair has one of the best quilt shows among fall fairs but the quilt committee wants it to be even better. And that means having more and more quilters show more and more quilts at the Fair, displaying the great talent and skill in quilting that exists locally. The quilt show committee of the Fair is encouraging all quilters to exhibit their work at this year’s Fair to help make this the most spectacular quilt show ever at the Fair. The show is
open to everyone in the area. There are categories for all kinds of quilts and techniques, from first quilts to applique to wall hangings to traditional to hand or machine quilted. There are even categories for quilts made by youth under 19 years of age as well as categories for wearable art. There is a section in the show for those just wishing to display their work without having it judged. There are prizes for the winning quilts in the various categories.
Sponsors of these prizes include The Country Quilter in Richmond, Mad About Patchwork in Stittsville, The Running Stitch in Kanata, The Pickle Dish in Carleton Place, The Quilting Quarters in Almonte, Textile Traditions in Almonte and the Westboro Animal Hospital. For more information about the various categories in the Fair’s quilt show, go to the website www. richmondfair.ca and look at the homecraft section or contact quilt committee co-chair Alison
Tranter at ptranter@sympatico. ca or by phone at 613-8385347. The quilt committee is also looking for volunteers to help out with the quilt show on the days of the Fair and also volunteers to demonstrate quilting techniques at the show. The Richmond Fair is running from Thursday, Sept. 17 to Sunday, Sept. 20 this year. The Richmond Fair takes place at the Richmond fairgrounds in Richmond. The quilt show takes place in the curling club building on the grounds.

Airport cabbies take fee-hike protest to dispatcher HQ Erin McCracken

Erin McCracken/Metroland
Ottawa police officers manage an intersection at the Airport Parkway and Uplands Drive near the Ottawa International Airport on Aug. 17 as a parade of taxi drivers take their protest over a hike in airport fees onto the parkway. said he could understand a fee increase to reflect rising airport operating costs “but to go and say we want to more than triple the rates to provide a service to their passengers is ludicrous.”

Taxi drivers took their protest against an increase in airport dispatch fees to the Airport Parkway earlier this week, further slowing commute times as they continued to signal their outrage. Dozens of cabbies, some with “locked out” signs attached to the front of their vehicles, slowly paraded in both directions along the parkway between Hunt Club Road and Uplands Drive at the start of the Monday afternoon commute, and then took their protest down to their dispatch company’s headquarters in Overbrook Tuesday morning. It’s the latest in a series of measures they have been spearheading since Aug. 11, coinciding with the day the airport cab drivers were to pay Coventry Connections new dispatch fee rates the company negotiated with the Ottawa International Airport Authority. Calling the fees “very exorbitant to us in this day and age,” Harry Ghadban, the Unifor union national representative speaking for the airport drivers,
The fee hike, negotiated within the past six months, has not been accepted or paid by the Ottawa airport taxi drivers, who have been in a legal strike position since Aug. 1. “In that agreement, it now requires drivers to pay roughly $4.50 for a
pickup. It used to be around $2. It is now more in line with what’s happening across North America,” said Daniel Coates, spokesperson for Coventry Connections. “This is a typical fee you see at most airports across North America, so we’re only catching up.” But Ghadban argues the dispatch fee is not typical of other airports, nor are fares picked up at the airport dispatched through Coventry. He said under the previous contract, drivers each paid $345 plus HST per month to Coventry, regardless of the number of fares they picked up. Under the new contract, the drivers would each be required to pay about $1,335, based on the estimated 40,000 fares that come from the airport each month. “They don’t pay per fare now. This is just a new business model that they’ve tried to introduce as a way to quadruple the costs,” Ghadban said, speaking on behalf of 260 airport fleet drivers operating 150 taxis. Drivers previously rejected the idea of recouping the cost through their customers, saying they are already having to compete with illegal cab operators who are undercutting their rates.

“So we can’t go to people now and say we want to increase each fare by $5 when people like Uber are undercutting us by $10 or $15 a trip because they don’t have the insurance costs and the licensing costs and the background checks,” Ghadban said. Taxi drivers countered with an offer to pay an increase of 15.5 per cent or $400 a month, but this was rejected. Coates said the upset drivers are also protesting another change to the contract that now gives two other local cab companies the right to pick up customers at the arrivals terminal. Previously, only the airport taxi fleet could provide this pick-up service. “But because we have an influx of more and more passengers coming to Ottawa with no more plates being given out by the city, this new agreement also allows for Blueline and Capital taxis (both of which are dispatched by Coventry) to access those same passengers to make sure we’re meeting the demand,” Coates said. The slow-moving protest along the Airport Parkway and down to the Coventry headquarters comes on the heels of an emergency court injunction the airport authority was granted on Aug. 15 to curb the actions of the protesting cab drivers on airport property. Tempers flared the first day of the protest on Aug. 11, when airport drivers sparred with drivers from other cab companies, who were allowed to pick up customers during the protest. The airport drivers say Coventry essentially locked them out that day by disabling their transponders that allow them to open the airport gates and pick up customers at the door to the terminal. The airport authority said the injunction was necessary to curb the escalating dispute, which had expanded from drivers slowing down traffic at the airport and horn honking to harassment of other taxi drivers and airport staff. The injunction restricts the number of protesting drivers to 20 inside a barricaded area at the airport terminal, limits the number of taxi vehicles driving in protest to just 10 and prohibits the drivers from honking their horns and using megaphones. “The safety and security of our passengers, employees and partners is not something that we will compromise,” Mark Laroche, airport authority president and chief executive, said in a statement. Laroche encouraged Coventry Connections and the airport fleet drivers to return to the bargaining table. When Coates was asked by email to elaborate on the terms of the contract, Ashlea McGrath, another company spokesperson, said Coventry is “unable to provide any further detail at this time as there are still sensitive discussions going on at this point.”
Downtown, downstairs, down the hatch New brewery opens in heritage basement Alex Robinson alex.robinson@metroland.com
A new pint–sized brewery has opened downtown to join the ever-growing number of microbreweries in Ottawa. Waller St. Brewery held its grand opening on Aug. 7 to celebrate what has been a project two years in the making for head-brewer MarcAndré Chainey. The brewer, who is a full time engineer, had to figure out how to put all the equipment of a microbrewery into the basement of a heritage building. It has taken a lot of patience and persistence, he said. “It was pretty clear there would be some pretty severe technical challenges,” Chainey said.
“One day the charm of the vision was strong enough to seduce us into thinking the technical challenges wouldn’t be that bad and we took the plunge and decided to start a brewery down there.” The building, at 14 Waller St., was built in 1866 and houses Lunenberg Pub and the Loft Board Game Lounge on the two top floors. The heritage status and limited size of the space has provided a conundrum for brewing, which is usually carried out in large industrial spaces with huge vats for brewing and fermentation. “There was really an art to working around the existing building to figure out what works,” Chainey said. Every single piece of equipment had to be redesigned, repurposed and modified to fit perfectly within the confined space. “A lot of manual hard work went into everything,” Chainey said. “Everything was built or assembled right downstairs.” Chainey said he and his

partners settled on this location rather than a larger industrial site as they wanted the brewery to be an urban neighbourhood institution. Before he opened the brewery with a colleague and fellow engineer, Chainey homebrewed beer for six years. He has come up with three beers that will be the brewery’s regular brews and always available: Speakeasy Red, Moonlight Porter and Bootleg Blonde. Chainey also plans to have seasonal beers that will change. His first seasonal was called the Hideaway Hefe, a German style wheat beer. The brewers also have dreams expand the business into a micro-distillery, but it is not clear how and if it would take shape, given space constraints.

Pipeline’s risks outweigh benefits, OEB report finds Energy East project could threaten Rideau, Ottawa rivers, leaders say Emma Jackson emma.jackson@metroland.com
Some local leaders are hoping a report from the Ontario Energy Board will take the steam out of a proposal to bring crude oil through the Ottawa Valley. TransCanada’s Energy East pipeline proposal would convert about 3,000 kilometres of natural gas pipeline to instead carry diluted bitumen from the Alberta oil sands to refineries on the east coast. Along the way, the pipeline would skirt or cross a number of waterways in Ontario, including the Rideau, Madawaska and Ottawa Rivers, and
the Oxford-Marsh and Nepean aquifers south of the capital. TransCanada has long touted the economic benefits of the project, but the provincial energy regulator’s report released Aug. 13 found that safety and environmental risks could vastly outweigh any of the “modest” economic benefits Ontario would see. “As with all pipelines, the benefits will largely accrue to the region producing the goods … and the region taking the goods out of it,” the report said. “This leads to an imbalance between the economic and environmental risks of the project, and the expected benefits for Ontarians.”
The pipeline will create jobs, particularly during construction, but not enough to have a huge economic impact in the province, according to the OEB. And any modest gains could be offset by the fact that natural gas prices could rise by as much as 12 per cent during winter months between 2016 and 2035. That’s because converting the pipeline to carry crude oil will effectively reduce natural gas supply, particularly for eastern Ontario. And the safety risks could be costly, too, both in monetary terms and in environmental damage. The OEB has added a greenhouse gas emission analysis to its report mandate, after it was raised as a major concern time and again at public consultations. Another big concern from residents

was the fear that bitumen is more toxic and more difficult to clean up in the event of a spill – an incident that could send enough oil to fill an Olympic swimming pool into the Ottawa Valley’s drinking water supply. The proposed route nears the Ottawa River downstream from the city’s drinking water intake, the report found. RISKY BUSINESS
The report’s dire findings have got some local leaders hopeful the province will advocate for the route to be changed – or even canned altogether. “We’re assuming with this report the provincial government cannot support this project,” said Graham Saul, executive director of Ecology Ottawa. “The OEB emphasized there were serious risks, not just environmental risks, and they clearly stated those risks outweigh the benefits.” Ottawa South MPP John Fraser certainly seemed swayed by the report, which his government commissioned, although the province has yet to say if it will support or reject the project when it acts as an intervener at the National Energy Board hearings sometime next year. Calling the report “a win for our environment and for the Rideau River,” Fraser said the document gives voice to serious safety and environmental concerns raised by residents that might otherwise have been silenced. “We’ve looked around the world to see the devastating impacts of spills,” Fraser said. “We don’t want 30 or 40 years from now (to have) the next generation – our grandchildren, our great grandchildren – going, ‘What were they thinking?’ “The Rideau River is a UNESCO world heritage site and it runs through our city and through a large portion of eastern Ontario, and not only is it there for recreation and people’s enjoyment, but people depend on it for their livelihood,” he said. Capital Coun. David Chernushenko, who chairs the city’s environment committee, is personally against the pipeline, and has long argued that the broader climate

David Chernushenko is hopeful the National Energy Board will consider the environmental risks to Ottawa’s drinking water after a report from Ontario’s energy regulator highlighted safety and economic concerns about the Energy East pipeline. change debate must be part of the impact assessment of the project. “Initially we were not talking about whether we should be consuming oil in the first place,” Chernushenko said. The City of Ottawa has yet to take an official stance on the project, although council sent a letter to the National Energy Board outlining the city’s concerns with regard to emergency preparedness, safety and drinking water protection. Chernushenko said the city won’t be an official intervener in the hearings next year, but he hopes the environment committee will eventually host a public discussion on what stance, if any, the city will take on the project. “We had anticipated that debate would come this fall, but we keep pushing back when that might be because the NEB’s deadlines keep getting pushed back,” he said. UNPREDICTABLE
Even if the province and the city do take a stance against the pipeline, it’s ultimately up the National Ener-
gy Board to decide if it goes ahead – and that’s unpredictable at best. “(Canada’s) environmental protections have been so damaged by (the Harper) government, and the National Energy Board process itself has been so fatally undermined, we can no longer count on the NEB to provide a fair process,” said Saul. Fraser agreed that federal regulatory changes have weakened the hearings, which he said will result in limited community consultation, “minimal consideration” of environmental impacts and less of a voice for First Nations and Métis people, who believe the pipeline violates their aboriginal and treaty rights. The changes to the scope of the National Energy Board hearing process is meant to speed up the pipeline application process, Fraser said. “As a resource-based economy, there’s pressure to get new resource projects going faster,” he said.

Loving brother of Paulette Cantin (Raymond) Astorville, Denise Males (Garry) Orillia, Monique Laperriere (Arnel), Astorville, Lucie Miller (David) North Bay, and his sister-in-law Michelle. Loving brother-in-law of Linda Armstrong (Tim) North Bay, and loving mother-in-law Kathleen Boller. He will be lovingly remembered by his many nieces and nephews. He was predeceased by his dad Roland and his mom Germaine Guillemette, his two brothers Marcel and Claude, his nephew Eric Laperriere and his father-in-law George Boller. Vic worked at Carleton Place and District Memorial Hospital as Plant Manager and Maintenance supervisor for 23 years. He will be sadly missed by his co-workers.

Hair Donation Ottawa raises $126K in April for cancer research Alex Robinson
alex.robinson@metroland.com
For 10-year-old Nicholas Paravan, chopping off his hair for cancer research was the least he could do. Nicholas was one of many people who helped local charity Hair Donation Ottawa raise more than $126,000 for cancer research in April. The young Carlingwood resident, who attends Woodroffe Public School, raised more money than anyone else for the charity this year, garnering more than $5,000. “I feel happy because I know I’ve made a big difference,” he said at a ceremony on Aug. 11, when Hair Donation Ottawa officially presented the raised money to CHEO. Nicholas said he felt compelled to help out because his brother suffers from an undiagnosed neurological condition, which brought his family to Ronald MacDonald House in Toronto, where he
made friends who had cancer. “I thought I should help them,” he said. Nicholas had hair down to his shoulders before he cut 15 centimetres off in April to raise the money for Hair Donation Ottawa. The charity was founded in 2011 by Helene Hutchings, a cancer survivor who wanted to give back to research after she was cured of the malady. “When I do what I can, and everyone involved does what they can, every bit helps,” Hutchings said. “Can I ever repay the medical profession? Absolutely not because I could never repay someone for life, but I do my best to make a difference, and so does everyone else in Hair Donation Ottawa. We make a difference because we can.” The charity invites participants to donate their hair and raise funds for cancer research at CHEO and the Ottawa Hospital. Since 2011,

said donations such as the one from Donation Hair Ottawa allow researchers to take risks. “Some of the things we do are less conventional and they’re difficult to fund from existing grant agencies,” he said. “Having philanthropic dollars like those that come from Hair Donation Ottawa allow us to be a bit more risky in the things we try to do.” There are new types of treatment being developed that would not be possible if researchers had to rely on conventional sources of fundAlex Robinson/Metroland Nicholas Paravan, far left, stands with his brother, Matthew at a ceremony at CHEO on ing, Stojdl said.

Wetland to provide wildlife haven near Remic Rapids Emma Jackson
emma.jackson@metroland.com
What’s now a haven for toxic invasive species may soon be home to native frogs, turtles and ducks along the Ottawa River, if the Rideau Valley Conservation Authority’s vision to construct a wetland near Remic Rapids goes to plan. The conservation authority has teamed up with the National Capital Commission to turn a small triangle of land between the Sir John A. Macdonald Parkway and the recreational path just east of the Remic Rapids parking lot into a functional wetland habitat. Biologist Jennifer Lamoureux said the spot is currently overrun with buckthorn, an invasive species that can actually poison the soil so other plants can’t grow. Beginning Sept. 8, volunteers will rip all of that out to make way for native shrubs and trees, wetland plants and wildflower species. The area is already wet, Lamou-
reux said, particularly in the spring, and she saw mallard ducks nesting there this year. Cattails are trying to push through the buckthorn in some spots, too. The conservation authority will improve on that by creating a more inviting spot: small pools of standing water, nesting and basking sites for turtles and water fowl, and a wide variety of wetland plants and ground cover. The site doesn’t connect to the nearby Ottawa River; instead, it will maintain itself with rain water from the spring and fall. It will likely be fairly dry in the summer months, Lamoureux said. The wetland will cost about $35,000 for construction and materials, which the NCC will cover. The conservation authority will offer about the same in staff time, Lamoureux said. Once the wetland is complete, it will be visible to residents using the Ottawa River path, who can stop to see if they can spy any turtles or herons among the foliage.
Emma Jackson/Metroland
A small piece of land near the Ottawa River just east of Island Park bridge will be turned into a functional wetland habitat this fall. Volunteers are needed to help with site construction, which starts Sept. 8 and will last about two weeks. A class from Connaught Public
School in Hintonburg is already on board, but about 30 more people are needed, particularly on Sept. 18, the final day of construction, when
Lamoureux expects to install about 400 plants. There will be another week of work in late October, as well. The conservation authority
will continue to monitor the new wetland’s health over the next five years. To volunteer, email jennifer.lamoureux@rvca.ca.

Hydro Ottawa adds 10 generating dams Acquisition expected to reap big dividends for city Steph Willems
steph.willems@metroland.com
Already the greenest municipal electric utility in Ontario, Hydro Ottawa’s recent bulk purchase of 10 run-of-river generating dams ensures its status of a hydro power leader. Energy Ottawa, a subsidiary of Hydro Ottawa, recently closed a deal with Newfoundlandbased Fortis Energy to purchase 10 hydro dams – six in eastern Ontario and four in New York State. The combined output of the stations of 30.9 megawatts. Hydro Ottawa already generates 48 megawatts of hydroelectric power, which it touts as the most long-lasting and cost-effective method of producing green energy. The acquisition joins a

planned expansion of the utility’s Chaudière Falls generating facility (due for completion in 2017), and the recent purchase of Domtar’s Chaudière generation assets in Hydro Ottawa’s rapidly-expanding asset list. “By the time we get the Chaudière expansion done, we’ll have about 90 to 95 megawatts of renewable energy in our portfolio,” said Bryce Conrad, president and CEO of Hydro Ottawa. One of the generating stations being purchased is located in Ottawa, but remains mostly unseen to the public. Below the pavilion adjacent Rideau Falls lies an outflow port, the only real sign of the hydroelectric generator behind it. “(This) is consistent with our strategic plans – where we want the company to grow,” said Conrad. “Green energy has been an area we’ve been in for a long time.

However, that doesn’t mean residents don’t benefit indirectly. “The dividends (from hydro generation) go into general revenues at the city, which reduces the amount they need to tax residents,” said Conrad.

Youth are learning how to be leaders in their community thanks to a City of Ottawa camp sponsored by the Ottawa Senators Foundation and Canadian Tire Jumpstart. More than 25 youth and 265 children from across the city took part in the final day of the Ottawa Youth Sports Camp at West Carleton Secondary School Aug. 14. The youth program brings in teens between the ages of 13 and 16 who come from lower-income families and teaches them various life skills – from cooking to budgeting to resume writing, said Bryan Richards, program co-ordinator with the city. The youth also learned how to organize and lead the younger children through play-based activities like dodge ball, basketball and freeze dance. Sixteen-year-old Abdikarim Buraleh, from Britannia Woods, said the camp has been a rewarding experience. While leading a game
of dodge ball earlier in the season, a younger child came up to him and said this had been “the best summer ever.” “It touched my heart,” said Abdikarim. “It made me feel really good that I was doing something positive in this world.” Richards said the four-week program has been very successful, with more than 30 youth taking part each week. “It’s to give low-income youth the opportunity to gain some experience in terms of jobs, in terms of life skills,” he said. Abdikarim said he’s learned how to work as a team and to make decisions independently, as well as communication, organization and self-assessing skills that will help him in his future. “It’s going to help me a lot, not just all the skills I learned but also to be part of the workforce,” he said, adding he would like to work in Parliament. “(This is) by far the best program.” The Senators Foundation plans to continue the program after a positive first summer, which saw more than 1,500 children and youth from low-income families take part in the recreational and skill development camps.

No one is immune to mental illness. Not fame, not wealth, not working hard or living right, will guarantee that you, or someone you love, will not fall under the shadow. One in five Canadians will experience mental illness. We all know someone who has been affected, directly or indirectly. It’s the single greatest cause of workplace disability today. For too long, the shadow of stigma kept me from understanding or talking about my sister Cecilia’s struggle with generalized anxiety disorder. But her pain, and the tragic losses that occurred in our community, finally moved me to speak out. I think of my friend’s daughter Kim Mackenzie Smith or the Lees family’s beloved daughter and sister, Allison. Then there’s Daron, daughter of my friends Luke and Stephanie. For the past seven years, I’ve been proud to reach out to the Ottawa community on behalf of the Royal Ottawa Mental Health Centre. When I joined the team, I made a personal commitment to do all I can to help. I meant it then, and I mean it now. Are you with me? I know our community is up to the challenge. Next to my parents, Ottawa has done more to make me who I am than anything else in my life. I learned to support my neighbours when they are down. I learned to reach out to the ones who are suffering in silence, in fear, and in painful dignity. Sometimes, when I was feeling particularly down about my performance on the ice, I found the best cure was to get out into the community. I would go shopping with my wife and kids, drop into a coffee shop, or chat with the guy at the gas station. The message was always the same, “Hey Alfie, you’re going to beat them next time. Don’t sweat it. We love you.” And every time, I’d drive home smiling, with new energy and gratitude. The people of Ottawa lift up those who stumble. We reach out to those who need it most and expect it the least.
Together, we need to overcome the stigma of mental illness. We need to support exciting research that is unlocking the mysteries of the brain. Most importantly, we need to support people and their families who know what it’s like to struggle every day of their lives with depression, anxiety, and mental illness. Your kind donation to The Royal in support of the Campaign for Mental Health will do so much good. You’ll be supporting research, the purchase of a new brain imaging machine, a women’s mental health initiative, family support services, advocacy and awareness programming as well as funding fellowships and public education. Your support today will help The Royal purchase a new state-of-the-art PET-MRI imaging machine. The PET is a highly sensitive imaging tool that allows researchers to quickly track chemical changes in the brain. And the MRI gives a clear picture of where brain function is different from the normal. Researchers at The Royal tell me this new technology will be like a window into the brain that will allow them to learn more about how and where depression affects it. This research will one day enable doctors to offer better care by basing their diagnoses and personalized treatments on hard evidence. Ottawa will be the home to the PET-MRI which will be the only machine of its kind in North America focused on research into the diagnosis and treatment of mental health issues. I’m excited that progress is being made in research at The Royal that will help people like my sister and others with mental illness. They are doing innovative clinical research that will change many lives. The Royal is leading the way with innovative treatments that are being shared around the world. Please join me in standing up for people with mental illness. On behalf of my family, and all those striving to regain mental health, thank you for caring. We fight this battle for all of us. Sincerely, Daniel Alfredsson

Capital Fair
Free Gate admission
is the last big summer hurrah
For the past 40 years, the Capital (formerly Gloucester) Fair has welcomed spring to the National Capital Region, bringing fun and excitement along with it. Now in its second year as the 10 day late summer event at the Rideau Carleton Raceway, the Fair promises to have something for everyone with wild and crazy outdoor monster truck shows, western horse and barrel racing shows, Eastern Ontario’s largest midway, three days of senior’s bridge tournaments, a raucous demolition derby, free daily live entertainment, a comedic hypnotist, a daily dog stunt show, Armwrestling championships, an amateur BBQ competition, a Petting Zoo and a huge kids zone among lots of other attractions. It’s is a great way to get out and have one last summer celebration with the whole family. The Fair’s signature event, the Monster Trucks on a Mission show is not your average extreme action feature. These trucks take full advantage of the outdoor venue to reach speeds and heights and perform tricks that can’t be performed in any indoor arena. With a show on Friday, August 21st, Saturday, August 22nd and Sunday, August 23rd, there’s lots of opportunity to enjoy this spectacular event. Discount tickets are available on-line (capitalfair.ca) for a limited time and at the door for only $25.00. Special combo packages are available but only on-line. They offer all day midway rides and admission to the Monster Shows. There are also VIP packages for the best seats in the house, a pit pass and autograph session. Cars and trucks will be crashing all over the fair, as the Monster Truck Show is complimented by a return of our FREE Demolition Derby on Thursday night. See our derby cars smash and crash, all to the delight of the crowd. And it won’t just be the car’s strength that will be tested. On Sunday the Ontario Championship arm-wrestling competition will push competitors to the edge. All of that outdoor fun is sure to build up a healthy appetite and barbeque is
the name of the game at the Capital Fair at the D&S Southern Comfort B.B.Q. Restaurant “Smoked to the Bone” barbeque competition. The competition will pit amateur teams against each other for $1,000 in cash and prizes. Think your barbecue talents deserve glory? Why not try your hand? All you need is a BBQ. Chicken and ribs are provide with your admission. For animal enthusiasts, there are western horse barrel races on Friday and Saturday night and a full Gymkhana show on Sunday. The Kids Zone features the Bird of Prey show where families can meet eagles, owls and hawks up close and personal. See them soar overhead as the conservation team explains the habitat and challenges these species face. There’s also a petting zoo and pony rides. Also inside the Kids Tent is DooDoo, the world famous clown and his Dance Party. There’s also the Reptile Rainforest, the Kommunity Stage and the Travelin’ Farmer display where city folk can get in touch with their country cousins. Kids young and old can enjoy the World’s Finest Midway, which delivers all the best rides from summer´s past including the Cannonball, Music Express, Alien Abduction and Fireball. All-day ride passes are regular $36 or you can purchase in advance for $18. The Capital Fair also appreciates the community it thrives in, so they give back every year the day before the fair starts with the Hydro Ottawa Special Needs Day. This year we will host over 1,500 special needs children to a private party where legions of Hydro Ottawa volunteers help move children to and from World’s Finest Midway rides and then off to a hotdog and ice cream lunch in the Hydro Ottawa food tent. Entertainment, Karaoke and a Petting Zoo, courtesy of Monalea Petting Zoo, round out what is the best day of the year for many of these children.
So come check out all that the fair has to offer! Now Starring

Axe-throwing club takes a chop at Ottawa Alex Robinson
alex.robinson@metroland.com
Throwing axes isn’t just for lumberjacks any more. Less than a year since Joel Melnichuk created Bad Axe Throwing in the GTA, he is bringing his axethrowing business to Ottawa. Last summer, Melnichuk heard about an axe-throwing craze that had taken hold in Europe and decided to try it out. He built a wooden target in his backyard with his brother-in-law and started launching axes. “We just started chucking axes at it and thought, ‘This is super cool,’” said the company CEO and self-described “Chief Axe Thrower.” Melnichuk bought an industrial space in Burlington, Ont., in October 2014 and has since seen his business take off at lightning speed, opening three more locations in the GTA by this May. “It totally exploded,” he said. “We knew it was a super unique idea, but we didn’t think it would explode this rapidly. We thought it would take a couple years to get established.” Bad Axe Throwing now has
about 20 employees at five different sites. The newest location, at 1580 Liverpool Crt. – near Innes and St. Laurent – is set to open on Aug 22. Groups of at least eight people can book the site for three-hour sessions to competitively throw axes at two wooden targets. Axe coaches give group tutorials on how to throw the axes safely before letting newbies loose to compete against each other. Bad Axe Throwing is open to hosting events such as birthdays and bachelor parties and axe-hurlers are encouraged to bring their own food and drinks to the sessions. Melnichuk is now looking to expand Bad Axe Throwing nationwide and has plans to open two locations in Western Canada this fall. The company also recently announced it is hoping to expand globally and open at least 10 more locations within the next year. “It beats bowling and mini-golf,” Melnichuk said. “It’s definitely a unique activity. People come and get to throw axes against their boss and it provides a different dynamic.”

The Abilities Centre Ottawa is incorporated as an organization but has yet to receive the charitable status. “We are not even a year old,” said Peters. For part of the awareness initiative, the centre group is
holding its first tournament on Sept. 18 at the Canadian Golf and Country Club. The event is for golfers of all abilities to take part in a round of 18 holes. “We are in the start-up development phase,” said Peters. “You have to walk before you can run and we have to be able to put all our ducks in a row.” The Abilities Centre in Whitby is a 125,000 square foot, state-of-the-art facility that “offers sports, fitness, arts and life skills programming, as well as research and education opportunities, for people of all ages and abilities.”
“Ottawa’s won’t be exactly the same, but Whitby is what we are going for in concept,” said Peters. The committee is also receiving help from officials in Whitby in getting Ottawa’s centre off the ground. “We are addressing the needs that it will be a place for everybody and for convenience. There are rehabilitations like someone with a brain injury and who is relearning, to families, to people with disabilities.” The plans for the centre include three full-size basketball/all-purpose courts, a 200-metre six-lane track for

Lennox Sterling of Richmond was fortunate to have received end-of-life care at a hospice in Ottawa and his family and friends undertook this annual tournament in his memory to ensure that the hospice beds will be in place in Ottawa’s west end so that others will be able to experience the hospice end-of-life care that Lennox
Charity tournament tees off for Tysen Proceeds from an annual charity golf tournament this month are going to be donated to Tysen Lefebvre’s “Mission To A Million.” This is the 12th year that Dunrobin Meat & Grocery has hosted an annual charity golf tournament. The tournament will be held on Saturday, Aug. 29 at the Irish Hills Golf and Country Club on Carp Road between Stittsville and Carp. Tournament organizers feel that Tysen’s “MissionTo A Million” is a most deserving cause and want to help Tysen reach his goal in helping other children have their wishes granted by Make-AWish Eastern Ontario. While the tournament is
sold out for golfers, organizers are still looking for sponsors and also for prizes for both the live and silent auctions that will be part of the event. If you want to pursue sponsorship or donate a prize, please contact Mike, Julie or Cindy at Dunrobin Meat and Grocery Ltd. at 613-832-3462 or via email at info@dunrobinmeat.com. Tysen Lefebvre of Stittsville, who is 15 years old, has been raising funds for MakeA-Wish Eastern Ontario with the goal of raising one million dollars over a five year period. This will be enough to fund the granting of 100 wishes for children facing life-threatening illnesses. Already over $300,000 has been raised and 29 wishes have been granted.

Four tournaments and over $198,000 raised to help make hospice beds in Ottawa’s west end a reality. Now a fifth annual Lennox Sterling Memorial “Holes For Hospice” Golf Tournament is being held this coming September and it will be the last one because the new hospice beds are to become a reality in 2016. But there’s still some final fundraising to be done to ensure that all of the funds are in place for the early 2016 construction
of a 10 hospice bed addition at the Ruddy Shenkman Hospice in Kanata. That’s why the fifth annual Lennox Sterling memorial “Holes For Hospice” Golf Tournament is being held on Friday, Sept. 18 at the Loch March Golf and Country Club in Kanata. Activities that day will begin at 10:30 a.m. with a lunch followed by a 12 noon shotgun start to the best ball tournament. A cocktail hour followed by an awards dinner will wrap up the event. The first four tournaments

‘Blessing scam’ targets elderly Chinese: police Staff
Police seek credit card fraud suspects Alex Robinson
alex.robinson@metroland.com
Police have turned to the public for help finding two men accused of fraudulently charging more than $9,000 to credit cards at stores in downtown Ottawa. Police released photos of two men who allegedly com-
mitted credit card fraud in the Rideau Centre and ByWard Market in May. Police described one of the men as between 5-foot-10 and 6 feet tall, 35 to 45 years old, heavyset with tanned skin and a chin strap beard. The second man was described as 6 feet tall, between 35 and 45 years old, heavy-
set, with a thin beard. He wore a large ring on his right ring finger. Police asked anyone with information regarding the investigation to call Det. JoLynn Wellman at 613-2361222, ext. 5677. Anonymous tips can be submitted by calling Crime Stoppers at 1-800222-8477.
Anyone with information with respect to this scam is asked to contact the police organized fraud section at 613236-1222 ext. 5433. Anonymous tips can be submitted by calling Crime Stoppers toll-free at 1-800222-8477 (TIPS), or by downloading the Ottawa Police iOS app.

Police released this photo of two men who they said committed credit card fraud at stores in the Rideau Centre and ByWard Market in May.
A new fraud seems to be targeting elderly Chinese women, say Ottawa police. The ‘Blessing Scam’ or the ‘Chinese Evil Spirits Scam’ has multiple suspects claiming to be doctors who can help cleanse them of evil spirits. The victim is then instruct-
ed to bring valuables such as gold, jewelry and cash in a bag to the suspects, which are then turned over for a “blessing.” The victim’s bag is returned, empty. This scam appears to be well organized. The scam has been identified in other parts of Canada and may be occurring in Ottawa, said police.

One of the factors of academic success is development of rigour and self-discipline. This in turn promotes respect for instructions, builds concentration and motivates children to study and complete their assignments. However, this self-discipline can become very monotonous on a daily basis, which leads, almost inevitably, to a drop in motivation. Here are some strategies that will allow you, as a parent, to successfully encourage your children to keep going. â&#x20AC;˘ Introduce your children to the joys of reading from an early age. Later on, you could also help them discover nonfiction works on topics that interest them to stimulate intellectual curiosity. â&#x20AC;˘ Homework supervision is a great way to develop good study habits and a work ethic in your children. It will increase motivation and even their independence. Get a good start

KEEP ON LEARNING The future looks bright for Ontario’s university graduates last decade,” says Patrick Deane, COU chair and president of McMaster University. “They are getting jobs related to their skills and on average Ontario University graduates earn 58 per cent more than graduates from other Ontario post-secondary programs.” The report says Ontario university graduates consistently outperform the rest of the population in employment and earning outcomes. That’s true for all ages, including recent graduates. Citing data from Statistics Canada’s National Household Sur-

vey, the report says the average high school grad earned $38,808 (during the last year data was available), while the average Ontario college grad earned $47,706, and the average university grad earned $75,396. “When lifetime earnings and employment rates are considered, a university education is still one of the most resilient and personally fulfilling investments a person can make,” says Deane.

(NC) Ontario appears to be recovering and headed for growth after years of economic challenges, improving the outlook for both the employment and earnings of university graduates, according to a new report, University Works. The report, newly released by an economist with the Council of Ontario Universities (COU), says the unemployment rate for university graduates in February was 4.2 per cent – the lowest among the population. “In fact, university graduates experienced the highest employment growth of any educational attainment group over the

(NC) For many Canadian families backto-school season is the time to organize their thoughts and lives. Clarity and preparation starts at home as a clean and organized house sets the tone for everything people do. One common item many families will come across when fall cleaning their home is old cell phones. While used cell phones are extremely common and are gathering dust in drawers across Canada, many do not know how to properly dispose of them. Recycle My Cell is Canada’s free cell phone recycling program. The program accepts many different items for recycling, including smartphones, pagers,
cell phone batteries and accessories. After a device is received, it is sent to a processor where it can be refurbished or broken down. All items recovered are recycled in accordance with Canadian e-waste laws. Canadians can visit www.RecycleMyCell.ca and enter their postal code to locate drop-off locations closest to them where their old wireless devices will be accepted, regardless of brand or condition. If you can’t get to one of the drop-off locations in your neighborhood, the website offers a printable postage-paid label that can be used to mail the device back to Recycle My Cell at absolutely no cost. newscanada.com

If possible, organize a meet ing with their future teacher, as it will help reduce some anxiety. However, as a parent, the best way to reassure your children is to tell them about your own experiences (in positive terms, of course). If you’ve never experienced a

Because it’s their first day, tell them that you’ll walk them to their classroom if they would like you to. Every child is unique, so it can be difficult to gauge the level of anxiety generated by a change of school, either during the year or at the beginning of a new school year. In any case, you can help calm their fears with a few ca ring gestures and lots of encou
ragement. The goal is to show your complete support. After
A change of school requires an adjustment period that varies from child to child. After the first few days, watch for reactions and be attentive to what they’re saying. Contact the school psy chologist if you feel your child needs professional help.

WestKourier-Standard Carleton Review - Thursday, August 20, 2015 57 59 Kanata
KEEP ON LEARNING The benefits of music lessons Music has many benefits. Multidisciplinary and versatile, it has the ability to soothe as much as stimulate an audience. If fact, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s very unlikely that youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll ever hear someone say they donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t like music, since it has positive associations for most people. But in practical terms, what are the benefits of music in the school context? 1. It facilitates learning There is an undeniable correlation between ease of learning and music instruction in schools. In fact, learning to play music usually encourages the assimilation of reading concepts, among other things. This relationship can be explained by the rhythms, sounds and tones that are also detected when reading. 2. It increases motivation For many students with a below-average academic performance, learning music in school is a real life safer that keeps them from dropping out.
Music facilitates learning in a school setting. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a source of motivation, maybe even a real passion, which compels them to give their best for the benefit of the group they belong to. 3. It heightens a sense of belonging Learning music in a school context can also provide a social haven for some students who typically find themselves excluded. Music can be a
common interest that bridges diverse individuals and groups of friends. The positive impact of this is immeasurable. School music teachers are faced with the huge challenge of getting students interested in music, while awakening their critical thinking. Those are long-term goals, but they are ones that benefit students throughout their entire lives.

Ottawa Mission boosts bed count at hospice Alex Robinson
alex.robinson@metroland.com
The Ottawa Mission has expanded the capacity of its hospice by 50 per cent to accommodate more homeless people who are in the final days of their lives. The mission has added seven beds to the Diane Morrison Hospice, which opened in 2001 with 14 beds. The facility, which sits on Daly Street, has provided palliative care to more than 150 homeless people over the years. “We realized several months ago –about six months ago – we needed to do a little better. We needed to do a little more,” said Peter Tilley, executive director of the Ottawa Mission. “Our director of health services, Marg Smeaton, was pushing us that she felt we needed to provide more beds for those who are suffering or terminally
ill. So we’ve done so.” Before the expansion, the hospice had a waiting list that often had three or four people seeking immediate palliative care, said Wendy Muckle, the executive director of Ottawa Inner City Health, which oversees the facility. The problem was that some of the beds were being filled by those who had a number of incurable chronic illnesses, but did not have acute needs. “We often were in the situation of trying to pick the least sick person to transfer to one of our other programs to free up a bed here, knowing we couldn’t address their needs adequately,” said Muckle. “There was no place else to put people and we obviously can’t turn them back out on the streets when they can’t get out of bed without assistance. So it really has given us more capacity.”

The hospice simply did not have the space or staff to provide care for everyone that was seeking it, but the expansion has given it the ability to meet those needs, Muckle said. w“We have to have both a place and the staff to provide care,” she said. “Because we have this vision and commitment to alleviating suffering and allowing people to live their last months of life in dignity, the mission decided to come forward, step up to the plate and provide a place where people can do just that.” The hospice was renovated with the help of donations to the Ottawa Mission Foundation, including a $25,000 gift from Telus.

F
ather said it was a poor farmer indeed who couldn’t feed his family. Although we never had the treats our cousins had in Ottawa, such as regular trips to the picture shows or rides on streetcars where the fare for a child was a whole nickel, or store-bought fruit, we knew they did enjoy the ample meals we had on the farm during those Depression years. I knew this, because whenever they made the long trip out to Northcote, they never left without the back seat of the car being filled with vegetables, eggs and usually a couple freshly plucked chickens. And when our visitors came, always for a meal of course, they ate like it was to be their last meal on earth! Always they had seconds, which in itself wasn’t that odd to us. I never knew Father or my brothers to leave the table without first loading their plates for another helping. Our big meal was always at noon hour. When Mother came to the farm from New York, one of the first things she learned was what meals were served when. She said she made the mistake of calling the noon meal lunch. Father was quick to point out the order of mealtime: breakfast in the morning, dinner at noon, supper at night, and a lunch was what we had before we went to bed! No one enjoyed his meals more than Father. Especially dinner. Mother would have cooked all morning, and the table would be laden with enough food, I thought, to feed half of Renfrew County. Soup was never served at noon. It was a supper meal. But on the table, in heaping bowls, always there would be steaming bowls of mashed and creamed potatoes. Father never considered his noon meal much without his potatoes. A roast of beef or pork would be sliced at the stove, and it would fill the platter. Of course, that meant a jug
MARY COOK Memories of gravy too; poured over the entire plate, and the remnants sopped up with a thick slice of freshly baked bread. This time of year, Mother would have cooked up at least two and sometimes three vegetables right out of the garden. Yellow beans, beets and fresh carrots were always available,
And when our visitors came, always for a meal of course, they ate like it was to be their last meal on earth!
and other than coleslaw, we never had tossed salad like Aunt Vanetta made when we visited Lyon Street in Ottawa. Instead, a large dinner plate held freshly picked sliced tomatoes (on which Mother sprinkled sugar when she put them on her own plate) cucumbers, and a bowl of radishes swimming in cold water amongst chips of ice from the ice house. Father didn’t consider it a proper meal if he didn’t have at least one big piece of pie, or a wedge of chocolate cake to top off the meal. And all the time, Mother would be constantly refilling Father’s tea cup with steaming green tea. Although supper was considered a lighter meal, it was indeed hearty, often starting off with a big bowl of Mother’s homemade soup, cold sliced roast, fried potatoes, homemade pickles, and always
a fruit nappy of homemade preserves. After consuming such enormous meals, it was astonishing to me how Father still had room for what he called “a bit of lunch” before crawling into bed. Always there was the cup or two of green tea, and a sandwich of roast meat left over from the day’s meals. I often would watch Father delve into those enormous meals and wonder why he wasn’t as fat as old Herman, who could barely walk. But Father was rail-thin, with energy to burn, and hardly ever sick a day in his life on the farm. He said he owed his good health to hard work and good food. Father wasn’t one to hand out praise lightly. He rarely if ever said to Mother, “that was good,” but often, after tucking away an enormous meal, he would tilt his kitchen chair back on its two hind legs, and with what would pass for a grin, he would say, “You have to wonder what the poor people are eating today.” And I would think: we are supposed to be poor people ... didn’t I hear it often enough when I wanted something as simple as new hair ribbons? And yet, I would look around that old pine table, and the platters and bowls full of food, all raised from our own hands, and I would think, “Yes, indeed, we are richer than most.” Interested in an electronic version of Mary’s books?

Qi Hu, of Archery Games, aims during a demonstration of archery tag. Archery Games is set to hold its grand opening at 1680 Bank St. on Aug. 21.

If dodgeball and archery had a baby, its name would be archery tag. Three local entrepreneurs have brought the growing sport to Ottawa in the city’s first archery tag arena called Archery Games. The game, which was invented in the United States, recently saw its popularity in Toronto skyrocket, as archery tag facilities started popping up all over the GTA. “People are looking for alternative ways of having fun,” said Brian Seto, one of the owners of Archery Games. “I’m always looking for new things to do, and this definitely falls right up that alley.” Seto, and his partners Ramsey Jackson and Qi Hu, are set to open their brand new 8,000-square-foot facility in the south end at 1860 Bank Street, Unit # 3B on the weekend of Aug. 21. The game is played by teams of six to 10 people, armed with bows and arrows with foam tips. Archery tag follows similar rules to dodgeball. Players are eliminated from the game when they are hit by an opponent’s arrows. But if a player catches an arrow, the shooter is out and one of their eliminated teammates can come back into the game. The sport is played with masks on and is less painful than paintball, according to Jackson. The arrows do not leave welts when they make contact
and hurt as much as having a tennis ball thrown at you, Jackson added. “While it’s similar to a lot of other tactical games, it’s totally a different type of game,” he said. “With paintball, you hide and spray bullets at each other, but with this game you only have one shot, because you’re only holding one arrow at a time. So it’s more about being stealthy and accurate and less about brute force.” The owners first leased their space to build an escape room facility, but soon realized they had enough space to do more than just that. Escape rooms are one of the latest crazes in adult entertainment, in which a group of people is locked in a room and find their way out by solving a puzzle. When the trio discovered archery tag and tried it out in Toronto, they decided bringing the new sport to Ottawa would be a good way of diversifying their space. Hedging their bets on both endeavours would also give the entrepreneurs something to fall back on if one of the ventures was not as profitable, Jackson said. “We really didn’t want to abandon escape rooms, because we know we can do something really cool, but instead of waiting to slowly build it up we thought we should take advantage of this huge space we have,” Jackson said. Bookings can be made online and the facility will only be open Friday evenings and on weekends at first.

Hospital to pursue spinal cord research Steph Willems steph.willems@metroland.com
Suruchi Bhargava didn’t get her old life back after being involved in a car crash in 1989, just a few months after her wedding. The crash left her paralyzed from the neck down, and despite her determination and her parent’s love, Suruchi passed away 17 years later without regaining her former abilities. She was 40. Parents Uttra and Subhas Bhargava remain determined to keep their daughter’s memory alive while working towards a cure for spinal cord injuries. On Aug. 13, the family joined doc-
tors at the Ottawa Hospital’s Civic Campus to announce the Suruchi Bhargava Chair in Spinal Cord and Brain Regeneration Research. The chair, which will oversee a team of researchers seeking ways to repair and rebuild damaged spinal cords, was made possible by a $500,000 donation from the Bhargavas. “The motivation was our daughter who had a car accident in New York – it was a drunk driver – a few months after her wedding,” said Subhas Bhargava. “She was 23. She died after 17 years of suffering … Now, the pain is gone, but you want to do it so that others don’t suffer.”
Uttra Bhargava spoke highly of her daughter’s strength during the chair announcement. “It feels so great, because our daughter was very creative, she never gave up, and didn’t believe in giving up,” she said. “After the accident, she did an MBA and got 92% in one course. “She was very brilliant, very spiritual, and very courageous … What we have gone through, what our daughter has gone through, I don’t want to see anyone else go through it.” The chair-holder will be Dr. Eve Tsai, an award-winning
neurosurgeon and clinician scientist who has been with the Ottawa Hospital since 2006. Tsai’s surgical interests lie in spinal injuries and the cuttingedge solutions being developed to treat them. Stem cell therapy, nanotechnology and tissue engineering are growing fields in scientific research, and Tsai believes they will lead to established therapies. Tsai said that research into spinal injuries was lagging until private donors such as the Bhargavas began putting money towards a cure. And while the chair comes with a limited

there to be money forever,” Tsai said. “This is a first step, and it’s a major step, because without it, there’s nothing,” Tsai said.

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