Back to the drawing board OC Transpo suggests alternative express routes for northern Kanata commuters Adam Kveton adam.kveton@metroland.com

News - OC Transpo says it is trying to deal with increasing ridership in north Kanata without spending more money. In response to the growth of subdivisions on the north and west edges of Kanata north of the highway, as well as in antic-

ipation of further subdivisions further up March Road, OC Transpo has drawn up a plan suggesting changes to express bus routes. The plan received a cold reception from residents when it was first presented during a meeting on July 30. Chris Wardle who attended the meeting said the commu-

nity was “up in arms” over the changes, which would cause longer rides for some, and fewer express bus trips overall. According to OC Transpo, of the 210 people consulted on the first route change option, 121 were opposed, with many people saying they were concerned about the longer travel time between Halton Terrace and downtown Ottawa on the proposed new 64 bus route and the proposed reduction in trip frequency. The new Route 64 would serve most of Halton Terrace and Flamborough Way residents, but, rather than taking Teron Road south like Route 60, it would travel on Terry Fox Drive, loop into Kanata Lakes, and then head to the highway. While some residents questioned why more bus routes weren’t being created to keep travel times shorter rather than longer, OC Transpo representatives explained that the proposed changes try to deal with new neighbours and more riders without any budget increase.

Alternative route options bypass Terry Fox and Eagleson stations Continued from page 1

ADAM KVETON/METROLAND

OC Transpo’s manager of transit planning, Pat Scrimgeour, discusses new bus route alternatives with north Kanata residents during a meeting at the Beaverbrook branch library on Aug. 20.

That first meeting ended with residents asking OC Transpo to go back to the drawing board. To the surprise of some residents, OC Transpo returned with two new options after considering public input, which Kanata North Coun. Marianne Wilkinson said showed “significant improvements.” The new alternatives both have Route 64 bypassing both Terry Fox and Eagleson stations, making for a quicker ride compared to the previous alternative, said Pat Scrimgeour, OC Transpo’s manager of transit planning. The ride would still take a few minutes longer than taking the Route 60 for Morgan’s Grant residents, while actually speeding up the ride for Kanata Lakes residents, he said. OC Transpo data showed that, with the new routes, travel times would be reduced by five to 11 minutes for 600 riders, while travel times would

increase by two minutes for 270 customers, specifically along parts of Flamborough Way and Halton Terrace. “We looked at probably half a dozen different options,” Scrimgeour told those attending the meeting on Aug. 20 at the Beaverbrook branch of the Ottawa Public Library. “You can see that there are both positives and negatives here,” he said, adding that the positives outweigh the negatives in terms of minutes saved. That OC Transpo came back with any alternatives at all surprised some at the meeting. One resident said, “I had

no faith you were going to listen, and you did,” proceeding to thank Scrimgeour for taking a second look at the route options. Others at the meeting remained sceptical, questioning the decision to reduce express bus frequency in the middle of winter, as that is when the changes are slated to take place. Several routes will be going down to nine trips in the

morning and nine in the evening. Others expressed concern about overcrowded busses, especially with busses going to park-n-ride stations. Scrimgeour said that busses will be added to routes as required provided there are busses from elsewhere in Ottawa that can be rerouted without causing problems for riders elsewhere.

Crops of corn growing in a field near March and Hertzberg roads are ready to be harvested, but birds remain a persistent pest. A local farmer’s noise device that scares them away has been frightening neighbours who did not know where the sounds were coming from.

News - Loud, frightening banging noises have been scaring residents on the east side of Beaverbrook, with their cause unknown for several weeks. However, the mystery has been solved, said Kanata North Coun. Marianne Wilkinson, who expects the noises to quieten down significantly right away, and then cease completely in the next three weeks.

Kanata resident Nigel Ward said the noise sounds “like a gun being shot,� and that it has been frightening residents on the west side of March Road near Hertzberg Road, with the blast sounding off every 10 minutes or so around dawn and dusk. “It made me jump out of my skin,� he said. There had been speculation that the noise was coming from the Connaught Range just as few kilometres to the north, said Wilkinson. See NEIGHBOURHOOD, page 5

Neighbourhood complaints prompt councillor action Continued from page 4

However, the culprit turned out to be a bird deterring device used on a farm located at the corner of March Road and Hertzberg Road. Responding to Ward’s report on the noise during a town hall meeting at the Beaverbrook library branch on Aug. 20, Wilkinson said the device, regardless of whether it is used early in the morning or late in the evening, is perfectly legal. “Farmers are allowed to do things to protect their crops, so that’s under provincial legislation, so our city staff and bylaw say the noise bylaw doesn’t apply,” she said. The device produces something like a gunshot noise, she said, and fires in various directions every 30 minutes, according to the farmer using it. Wilkinson would not reveal the man’s name. Though city bylaws could not keep the farmer from using the device, it did not stop Wilkinson from speaking with the man on Aug. 21.

“(The farmer) wasn’t aware it was causing so much trouble,” said Wilkinson. Though Wilkinson had only been receiving complaints about the noise over the past few weeks, the device has been in use for three years, said the farmer. This year, the device was placed far closer to the vicinity of houses than in the past, and that is why the noise is causing such a problem, said Wilkinson. Immediately after explaining the situation to the farmer, he agreed to move the noise device, she said. “It will be a much farther distance away from people,” said Wilkinson. That should mute the sound considerably, she said. Either way, the farmer will be harvesting his crops in the next three weeks, after which the noises will stop. In an effort to avoid the problem in coming years, Wilkinson requested that the farmer investigate other means of scaring birds away from his crop.

OPINION LETTER

The little legion that could To the editor:

Back in September, 1989, when 50 brave men and women applied for a charter to start a branch of the Royal Canadian Legion in Kanata, which was then a small suburb of Ottawa, there were a lot of raised eyebrows. Many didn’t think we could make it – and the 25 years that we have been in business have seen an abun-

dance of problems, even very near brushes with financial disaster- but we weathered the storm. We stand on the verge of paying off a crushing mortgage of almost $800,000. We are financially in good shape, unlike many other branches. Our membership is remarkably stable, in a time when many branches our size have withered and died – though we will never cease welcoming new members.

How do we do it? Volunteers. Throughout our 25 years we have relied on volunteers to carry out all of our operations, save the very few, like snow removal, that are beyond our ability. So many of our members have given generously of their time and talents that it is impossible to name them all here. Our successive service officers have helped a great many veterans to access government disability and other benefits. One member has, for many years, operated (and called) all our weekly bingo games, which have given so much pleasure (and cash) to Kanata’s residents. Another, for at least as long, has been our chef, purchasing officer, treasurer and Johnny-on-the spot. Yet another of our members has lovingly tended the Cenotaph and gardens since the inception of Kanata’s own Cenotaph. What makes us most proud to

be Kanata’s own legion branch? It is what we have done to make our community a better place to live. Yes, we offer food and beverage services, a hall for public and private use, and host special events open to the public every year. Our Sunday afternoon bingo has been popular for many years, and we now have a reputation of offering some of the best fish and chips in Ottawa for lunch on Fridays. For years we have operated a foot care clinic at a fraction of the cost of similar clinics in the west end, and we have hosted fundraisers for a wide variety of community organizations. From our gaming revenues, we have poured more than a million dollars into more than 50 community organizations – minor sports, programs helping the disadvantaged and the handicapped, or that help the community, our community, in many different ways.

We have used the money you donate through the annual poppy campaigns to help many others. We support the four cadet corps active in our area. We hold public poster, poetry and public speaking competitions. We donate $10,000 in bursaries each year to Kanata students, and we support the legion’s province-wide bursary program. We help to fund the Western Ottawa Community Resource Centre’s Meals on Wheels program. We buy medical equipment for the Queensway-Carleton Hospital. We support local service agencies like the Ottawa Mission, The Shepherds of Good Hope, the Salvation Army, and very special places like Kanata’s shelter for battered women and their children, and Kanata’s hospice. We assist the Military Families Resource Centre, and agencies that provide service dogs to veterans with post-traumatic stress disorder. We pour thousands of dollars each year into the care of damaged and indigent veterans : in Kanata, in Ontario, and in the former British West Indies colonies, (for who’s ageing veterans the Royal Canadian Legion is a major source of help). Do you support the Kanata Food Cupboard? So do we. Do you wear a poppy or give a thought to Remembrance Day? It was our branch that led the drive for a cenotaph in Kanata and–it is our branch that organizes the annual services at that cenotaph. Are you a member of the Kanata Seniors Centre? We were part of the force that pushed for its creation. Have you served in Afghanistan? Those hundreds of thousands of Tim Horton vouchers were all provided by the legion and a small group of volunteers from our branch helped to process every one of them. And it’s all done with two things – your dollars and our volunteers. Together, we have done so much to build our community – and we thank you. Still think we’re nothing but a watering hole for old drunks? Think again – and celebrate with us our 25th birthday as one of the more solvent branches in Ontario and – most important of all – we have made and continue to make a solid and lasting contribution to our community.

St. Paul’s celebrates 10-year anniversary Church holds first neighbourhood barbecue

We live in such a fast-paced, busy world. It is rare that we take the time to get together, break bread together (or hamburgers in this case) and really meet our neighbour. REV. CRAIG BOWERS

The year 2004 was the most recent re-build of the building, and in honour of that 10-year anniversary this fall, the congregation wanted to thank the neighbours within the immediate area for their support. The barbecue ran from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m. and

Community - St. Paul’s Anglican Church in Katimavik hosted its first neighbourhood barbecue on Aug. 16. The event offered a free lunch, intended to thank the residents surrounding the church for being great neighbours. St. Paul’s has been part of the community for 140 years, and in that time, has been rebuilt three times.

included traditional fare such as hamburgers, hot dogs, juice and pop. Clowns entertained the children with balloon animals, pirate hats and swords. “The goal of this event was to focus on the community, not the congregation”, said Colin Mackenzie, one of the organizers. Feedback from some of those who attended the lunch said they had a positive impression of St. Paul’s and that the church had been a good neighbour. Several of the attendees remember the church re-construction in 2003 and 2004, and, at that time, had questioned the size of the building. A facility of this size in the midst of a small residential community might have been awkward, but St. Paul’s seems to have stuck a nice balance the needs of its parishioners and the needs of the community. “We live in such a fast-paced, busy world. It is rare that we take the time to get together, break bread together (or hamburgers in this case) and really meet our neighbour,” said Rev. Craig Bowers. “Making a connection to the people who surround you every day is important. After 10 years in the new building, and 140 years in the community, we can’t forget that our neighbours are the ones who make this place special. We wanted to let the community know that our parishioners are grateful for their support.”

OPINION EDITORIAL

Please stop for school buses

P

arents across the city are breathing a collective sigh of relief, as the final days tick off the calendar to the start of the school year. On Tuesday, Sept. 2, tens of thousands of children will stream into Ottawa’s streets, returning to school on foot or by car or bus. Motorists will begin seeing a lot of yellow starting next week. Fleets of school buses will flood our streets as children return to elementary and high schools. Most schools welcome students back the day after Labour Day, but the French public and Catholic boards open a week earlier. The colour yellow in motorist’s language always translates to one word: caution. Motorists must keep their eyes open for children waiting on street corners. Kids will be kids, which means they are in constant motion. We must always remember the first rule of defensive driving: expect the unexpected. Children tend to offer a lot of unexpected behaviour, which occasionally involves a mad dash across the street chasing a ball or a friend waiting at a bus stop. Motorists would do well to drive a little more

slowly the first few weeks of September. They might also want to reacquaint themselves with the rules of driving when approaching a stopped school bus with its lights flashing. The flashing lights mean cars must come to a halt to allow children to board the bus. It also allows children and parents to safely cross the street. By law, traffic in both directions must stop anytime a school bus is stopped with its overhead alternating signal lights flashing. If the danger of hitting a child with your vehicle isn’t reason enough, failing to stop for a school bus can result in fines up to $2,000 upon conviction and six demerit points given to a motorist’s driver’s licence. And that’s only for a first conviction. Each subsequent offence can result in fines as high as $4,000 together with six demerit points and possible imprisonment for up to six months. Staying alert while behind the wheel and being aware of the rules of the road governing school buses is everyone’s responsibility. We’re all winners if we educate ourselves about the rules of the road and school bus safety.

Canada Post’s journey down the slippery slope

W

e’ve had lots of exposure to NIMBY – the Not in My Back Yard – phenomenon in which people rally to protect their neighbourhoods, sometimes selfishly, often nobly. But the front yard is not immune either. Nor the side, if you happen to be on a corner. We’re seeing it already in Kanata, where there is controversy over the placing of the first of the new community mailboxes by Canada Post. There is no perfect place to put one of these. It will always be right where there is no place to park, or right in front of someone’s house, or too far to get to on foot or too close to something else. Some people are annoyed and many more will be as the process of dropping home delivery and in-

news

Funny Town stalling more community mailboxes continues over the next year or so. The annoyance factor is accentuated by the fact that nobody wants these things in the first place. How could they? People are used to reaching outside the front door for the mail. Now they have to go somewhere else for it. At least Canada Post, unlike many enterprises, is not billing this reduction in service as something that will serve the customer better.

It will serve Canada Post better, is the idea. Eliminating door-to-door delivery will enable it to cut costs and become more viable financially. (Those with long memories will recall that Canada Post’s mandate used to be to serve the public, before it was changed to require the corporation to turn a profit.) The irony of the community mailbox conversion is that it could make Canada Post less likely to turn a profit than it was before. Most obviously, Canada Post is losing good will over the conversion and that can’t help any enterprise. If people are mad at Canada Post, they will be more likely to use a competitor’s services.

the mail they receive. As you know, few people write personal letters any more. Consequently, they buy fewer stamps and Canada Post must lean more heavily on distributing flyers and what unsympathetic customers refer to as junk mail. Up to now, nobody has minded that much. The advertising that forms a large part of the mail we receive is an irritant, but it’s no trouble. We take it out of the mailbox and throw it away. Now we will have to walk down the street or perhaps even get into our cars to retrieve something we didn’t want in the first place. Won’t that change our attitudes toward junk mail? Won’t we demand that Canada Post do something to reduce it? And if Canada Post is forced by public opinion to cut back on the advertising it distributes, that will cut into Canada Post’s revenues, further undermining the financial position

that the community mailboxes were supposed to improve. Oops. After this little victory on our behalf, it is hard to know what happens next. Whatever it is, we probably won’t be finding out through the mail.

Back to school blues

T

here’s nothing like a fish in a bucket to attract the attention of a group of kids. That’s exactly what happened on the beach last week. A kid caught a sunfish in a broken net. He put it in a bucket of water. The next thing you know a group of 10 children, aged four to 12, are standing over the thing, watching it circle. They had stopped whatever they were doing – swimming, sandcastles, volleyball – to give their full attention to the sunfish. And then there was a dad. He knew all about the fish. The kids had questions. He had answers. They wanted to hold the fish. He showed them how to lip it. He warned them some fish have teeth, so you have to be careful. They stood there in their learning circle for about 10 minutes before they dispersed. I went over to talk to the dad. “Nothing like a fish to

pronounced. My children have spent eight of their nine weeks of vacation outdoors. We accumulated four weeks of tent camping. In between, we had day kayak trips, picnics in Gatineau Park and fishing on the Ottawa River. They went to canoe camp. They rode their bikes, they played soccer, and we’ve been eating outdoors. The boys have each grown an inch-and-a-half, judging by the short trousers I had to donate to charity this month. When September comes, it’s like flipping a switch.

I have a few strategies to try to lessen the impact. But at the end of the day, as the dad indicated, it’s the indoor, sedentary school life which is largely out of my control. I met another parent recently who’s planning to home school her six-year-old with a group of other parents. Three mornings per week is all it takes to get through the grade one curriculum. The rest of their days will be spent in the garden, hiking outdoors and other physical ventures. I admire her and the lifestyle she’s creating for her family, but homeschooling is not for me. Outside of school hours, I’ll try to get the kids active, keep homework to a minimum and make the most of our weekends to get out in nature.

In order to keep your trees and shrubs looking their best, it is important to know when to prune, what to remove, and when is the best time of the year to take care of this chore. On Tuesday, Sept. 2, the Kanata-March Horticultural Society welcomes the Knippel Nursery team who will present Pruning – To Cut or Not to Cut. The difference in health and appearance in pruned versus un-pruned trees and shrubs is significant. However, figuring out how, why, where and when to prune can seem very daunting to the home gardener. This presentation will take some of the guesswork out of pruning

and give homeowners tips on how to trim with confidence. The meeting runs from 7:30 p.m. to 9 p.m. at the Old Town Hall, 821 March Road (entrance to the Old Town Hall is on Klondike Rd across from Shoppers Drug Mart). There is a $5 fee for non-members, or join us for the remainder of the 2014 program year for $15. Our society members are gardeners from novice to expert in experience, who share a common love of plants, gardening and take pride in their home’s landscaping. We feature guest speakers each month on a variety of topics, and help beautify the local community through the maintenance of the Molly Wilson garden at the Old Town Hall. New members are always welcome at any time of the year. Visit our website at www. kanata-horticultural.com and come grow with us.

Ema Lee Fashions: 11 years and counting

It was a hot June night in 2002 and everything was quiet in the small hamlet of Balderson. No one knew that in one house, there was a deal going down! Two men sat facing each other at the kitchen table in Mr. George Myers’ home. The conversation was quick and right to the point. Would Mr. Myers sell his old general store or not? That was the question. The sun was going down. The clocks on his wall ticked to their own tock. The silence had been broken. Finally a deal had been made on the back of a cigarette pack. The transformation began on the old general store and eleven years later Ema Lee Fashions is still a thriving, successful business. It is located seven kilometers north of Perth on Hwy 511 and open seven days a week. Gerry McSweeney and Emily Desjardine had no idea that the business would become such a huge success. “We are known all over for being the largest ladies clothing store in the Ottawa Valley and for being a destination shopping spot” Desjardine said. “The store is also known for it’s plethora of ladies apparel, swim suits, purses and men’s shirts”.

Adjoining Ema Lee Fashions in the “Downtown Balderson Complex” you will find Balderson Fine Foods, well known for its homemade ice-cream and the Anne and Vanessa’s Bakery. Since their last anniversary Emily and Gerry are very happy to announce and welcome the new proprietor and trained Chef Adam Porter of the Balderson Café. Adam’s theory: “Our philosophy is simple freshness is our commitment”. The Café is open from 10:00am to 5:00pm and the response from all of the customers has been extremely complimentary and positive. Emily and Gerry highly recommend that you drop in for lunch and don’t forget to try his homemade desserts…you won’t be disappointed! Come and discover Downtown Balderson!

Furrow queen bests politicians Plowing match brings out VIP contestants John Curry john.curry@metroland.com

News - The Queen of the Furrow lived up to her majestic title at the VIP plowing competition at the Ottawa Carleton Plowmen’s Association plowing match at Jockbrae Farms on Fallowfield Road near Munster last Friday. Taylor Brophy, the 201415 Ottawa Carleton Queen of the Furrow, won the competition, besting an array of local elected politicians, candidates running for municipal office in this coming October’s election and even the first vice-president and a director of the Ontario Plowmen’s Association (OPA), Charles Leduc. And none of the local elected politicians, ranging from federal MP Pierre Poilievre to provincial MPPs Jack MacLaren and Lisa MacLeod to Ottawa mayor Jim Watson to a host of incumbent councillors

even finished in the top three. The first runner-up was Fred Sherwin, a veteran journalist who is a candidate in the OrlĂŠans Ward, while the second runner-up was George Darouze, a candidate in the Osgoode Ward. Besides OPA first vicepresident Charles Leduc and the Queen of the Furrow Taylor Brophy of Richmond, the other non-political contestant in this VIP plowing competition was Rev. Arlyce Schiebout, the minister of the Munster and Ashton United Churches. Incumbent politicians on hand to try their luck included councillors Scott Moffatt, Steve Blais and Doug Thompson. Nepean-Carleton MP the Hon. Pierre Poilievre carried the federal banner in the competition while Nepean-Carleton MPP Lisa MacLeod and Carleton-Mississippi Mills MPP Jack MacLaren were both at the event. MacLaren

Besides OPA first vicepresident Charles Leduc, Rev. Arlyce Schiebout and winner Taylor Brophy, the Queen of the Furrow, other participants included Osgoode ward municipal candidates Davis Jermacans, George Darouze and Kim Sheldrick and Orleans ward candidate Fred Sherwin. Jean-Marc Dessaint, a regional director for Cumberland for the Ottawa Carleton Plowmen’s Association, accompanied each of the VIP participants as they plowed, ensuring that the plow was appropriately set and providing coaching as each participant made one pass each way on the plot of farmland designated for the VIP plowing.

By Megan Punnett City Council candidate Matt Muirhead believes that Kanata North seniors deserve better infrastructure and services across the ward. With that in mind, the frontrunner for the Kanata North Council seat, unveiled his Action Plan for Senior Citizens on Wednesday. “Ensuring Kanata North is a great place for seniors is good for all of us,� said Muirhead, “And you don’t need to be a senior citizen to see that our aging community ought to be better served.� Muirhead’s 5-point action plan includes: s %STABLISHING A 3ENIORS 4ASKFORCE TO PROVIDE ONGOING actionable recommendations for an age-friendly COMMUNITY 4HIS TASKFORCE WILL PROVIDE INPUT ON community design plans, road and path safety, improved LIGHTING PARK BEAUTIlCATION AND PROMOTION OF lTNESS health and wellness for senior citizens in Kanata North;

Five-year-old gives up birthday gifts for ailing cousin Community - Instead of receiving gifts for his birthday, five-year-old Noah Rand-Chu from Bridlewood tried to give one. By asking his friends to pilfer their piggy banks and bring donations rather than presents to his birthday, Noah did his best to give the gift of health to his sick cousin. Noah turned five on June 19, and after attending the birthday of one of his friends who had asked for donations rather than presents, Noah was curious about the idea himself. “His cousin (Maisy Anderson) was diagnosed with leukemia about two and a half years ago,” said Noah’s mom, Holly Chu. “(The birthday) gave us a chance to talk a little bit about helping others, and he thought it was a really great idea to do what we could to raise money to help Maisy get better.” So, instead of presents, the 22 children invited to Noah’s birthday on June 21 brought cash donations.

“They were all so excited,” said Chu of the children. “Kids were coming to the door with bags of change, and it was obvious that they had gone into their piggy banks and just dumped (the contents) into bags to bring to the party.” One of the largest donations to the birthday was from one of Noah’s school friends, who brought $50 in change. “All the parents were just thrilled,” said Chu. With the children’s donations, and a little help from parents, Noah’s birthday raised more than $500 to be donated to a research team with CHEO that is focusing on childhood cancer. “We were absolutely blown away,” said Chu of the total raised from Noah’s birthday party, who added that she was proud that her son would choose to give up birthday presents for his cousin. “I was just so touched to think that that’s something that he felt was important and something that he really wanted to do,” she said. But Noah isn’t the only one.

living in Kanata Lakes, finished his insider’s look at the Atlantic fishing industry early this summer. The book takes a close look at the collapse of cod stocks and other species, in an attempt to show what policies and practices led to massive overfishing that decimated an industry that used to produce 800,000 tonnes of fish a year.

Fisheries in author’s blood Continued from page 18

“It’s unbelievable,” said Snow, adding that just 30,000 tonnes of cod are fished per year now. “I never thought it would happen to that extent.” The fishing industry is in Snow’s blood. Born in Harbour Grace in Newfoundland and Labrador, Snow was born into the fishing culture. Though he spent just one summer actually fishing, Snow grew up working in fish plants, and so his decision to apply his degree from Memorial University in biology and geography to the fishing industry was a natural one, he said. “When I went to university I got a chance to look at theories of resource management, and I came out with a different perspective,” said Snow. “I knew that if we don’t protect our environment then there are going to be all kinds of problems, and of course we see a lot of problems today.” One of those problems continues to be the East Coast fishing industry, where, in 1992, the cod fishery closed its doors after depleting one of the richest fish resources in the world. Snow was working in the industry during and in the lead up to the collapse. “At the time it was a big

catastrophe,” he said. “Thirtythousand people (on the east coast) were put out of work. People had to leave where they lived and that applied to Nova Scotia as well,” said Snow. Small communities collapsed as families left to find work elsewhere, abandoning an industry that had sustained them for nearly 500 years.

“Because of what happened, a lot of younger people didn’t want to get into the fishery because they couldn’t see a very bright future there for them.” GORDON SNOW

“The younger people of course couldn’t get good schooling or couldn’t get good medical attention, so most of the young people that became more educated, they just left,” he said. “Because of what happened, a lot of younger people didn’t want to get into the fishery because they couldn’t see a very “That was way to easy!”

bright future there for them.” It was not just the cod, but many of the other kinds of fish that dwelt near the ocean floor that had become over-fished to the point where all industry activity had to stop, said Snow. When Snow joined Fisheries and Oceans Canada and began work in the east coast fishing industry, he knew there were problems, he said, but never imagined such a collapse could occur. “In the end it was thought that the fishery would come back in a couple of years,” he said. “Well that’s since ’92 and they are not back yet.” In an effort to give readers a better understanding of the Atlantic fishing industry and what was going on leading up to and during the collapse, Snow has spent several decades collecting information, offering a view of national and international policy, industry management, science and the feeling among fishermen themselves. The book, entitled “From Fishing Boat to Ottawa,” is available through Amazon, Chapters and other book retail stores. Snow’s next book will be “Whales of Point aux Gaul,” which he plans to have out this fall.

Birthday donations have become a bit of a trend, said CHEO’s senior manager of community engagement, Chantal Charbonneau. Several years ago, CHEO created a program in response to these birthday donations called the Special Occasions program, said Charbonneau, and the donations have continued to pour in. “Every week, we could have as many as three or five kids coming in giving donations to CHEO because that’s how they chose to celebrate their birthday,” said Charbonneau. “The program overall raises close to $20,000 a year.” Kids who participate in the program are given a special certificate recognizing their donation, as well as a pin given out only to children who give through the Special Occasions program. While the program also accepts donations from other events, like anniversaries and weddings, the majority of the donations still come

While the generosity of children is helping researchers find better ways to combat childhood cancer, the disease continues to take its toll. Maisy has undergone two-and-a-half years of treatment for her leukemia, with treatment finally ending in mid-August. “We had a celebration with the family to celebrate the end of her treatment, and the day after, Maisy developed a fever and she is back at CHEO right now on IV,” said Chu. “They are just trying to sort out … why this has happened,” she said.

A candidate may nominate him/herself for elected office by filing the prescribed nomination papers during regular office hours at one of the City locations listed below. A nomination paper must be filed by the candidate in person or by an agent acting on the candidate’s behalf.

Ottawa’s basketball future bright after gold, silver finishes Adam Kveton adam.kveton@metroland.com

Sports - Some of Ottawa’s top young basketball players proved the city will be a hoops powerhouse for years to come after bringing back Ontario Summer Games gold and silver. The U16 girls and U16 boys ended the summer games basketball tournament in early August with a first and second place showing, respectively, which boys head coach Jeff Wilson says bodes well for the city’s basketball future. “It’s a great feather for Ottawa hoops in general,� he said. “These are some of the best kids from the U16 age group coming out of our region, and the fact that both teams, the girls and the boys, made the gold medal game really speak volumes for the rise and the quality of the sport in this town.� The tournament, held in Windsor,

Ont., from Aug. 7 to 10, was a trial by fire for all teams involved, as teams are made up of players from various club teams and have no league play before the tournament. Ottawa’s teams were made up of players from Stittsville, Ottawa South, Nepean, Kanata, West Carleton, Barrhaven and elsewhere. Both Ottawa’s teams stumbled in their first games, said Wilson and head coach for the girls team, Jaime McLean. However, both teams proved to be worthy of the medal-round hopes their coaches had for them.

The girls finished off Huron with a score of 79-60, calming nerves and establishing a good benchmark for the team, said McLean. The Ottawa girls would continue to put up strong play, defeating defensive team South Simcoe 56-41 before overcoming the North region team 64-50 in a closer match-up. See THEY, page 24

They proceeded to take the Mountain region team by a score of 66-49 after slowing down the Mountain team’s fast-paced style. With that, Ottawa was in the finals against St. Clair in their toughest match of the tournament. “We hadn’t met anything like them yet in the tournament,” said McLean, describing St. Clair as a very polished team with a strong defensive game and a high intensity. Ottawa managed to stay on top throughout much of the game, but found themselves with just an 11-point lead by the third quarter. “At that point in time, I said to the girls, ‘Look, this is an 11-

point game, this is still close, that is only six baskets and this team (will have) a lead on us,’” said McLean. “’You’ve got to make a choice right now on how badly you want to come home with gold.’” The girls played a phenomenal fourth quarter, said McLean, with a great performance from Goulbourn Hornets player Morganna Hinds who proved to be a workhorse on rebounds. The team expanded their lead to 18 points for a 65-47 win. “They really showed their dedication and desire to win in that final game,” said McLean. THE BOYS

Ottawa’s boys team blazed a similar path to the finals, though with fewer points separating

them from their opponents compared to the girls. The boys’ semifinal game proved the most exciting, said Wilson, with Ottawa and St. Clair competing back-and-forth for the lead. Though Ottawa had given up a 16-point lead to St. Clair, entering the third quarter 12 points behind the home-town team, Ottawa came back, winning 80-73. “It was a fantastic game to watch,” said Wilson. The final game against the Tri-County region team ended in heartbreak, with Tri-County playing what many parents thought was the best game of their lives, said Wilson. Though Ottawa refused to collapse, the game ended 91-66 for Tri-County. “They are extremely talented,”

said Wilson. “They deserved to win in every facet of the game.” Despite the stumble at the finals, the Ottawa boys showed some talent, including Kanata All Saints player Regan Lynch who, in his first year of competitive basketball, has proved to be a six-foot-eight powerhouse, said Wilson. Also drawing attention was St. Patrick’s High School player Nathan Garcia from South Ottawa, who Wilson described as a lightning quick guard who more than made up for being the smallest player on the team. Though the games were over, perhaps the hardest part of the tournament was the trip home, laughed Wilson, with both teams traveling together by train, and the girls flashing their gold medals.

Barrhaven Oktoberfest to have world’s largest beer tent Festival returns to traditional roots in fourth year Jennifer McIntosh jennifer.mcintosh@metroland.com

News - This year’s Oktoberfest celebrations could have the world’s largest beer tent said organizer Dwight Brown. The Myers Volkswagen Auto Haus will be 24 metres wide and 95 metres long – roughly the size of a baseball field from home plate to the foul pole. Organizers plan to

submit it to the Guinness Book of World Records. Brown said this year, the festival organizers are going to focus on the traditional Oktoberfest roots. “One of the most common comments we got from the people we surveyed last year was that they wanted it to focus more on the traditional experience,” Brown said. “One of the best analogies I heard was

someone who said they go to a St. Patrick’s Day Parade expecting to hear the fiddle.” To that end, the headlining band will be a Grammy-winning Bavarian group called Black Forest Band. The Polka troupe has played Oktoberfest in Munich. In recognition of the history of the event, organizers received a grant from Heritage Canada this year, as well as one

from the city, Brown said. The annual event is a partnership between the Rotary Club and the Barrhaven Business Improvement Area and is run by volunteers. Brown said volunteers are still needed and can get more information on the Ottawa Oktoberfest website or Facebook page. The festivities will kick off on Oct. 3 and run until Oct. 5 in Clarke Fields – which has been home to the last two festivals. Brown said in addition to

the record-breaking tent being unveiled on opening night, Oct. 4, a team of Clydesdale Horses will lead a procession across the Strandherd-Armstrong Bridge to the fields for the annual keg-tapping ceremony. This title beer sponsor this year is Creemore Springs, who will be making a special Oktoberfest beer. The annual event will run until midnight on Oct. 3 and Oct. 4, with performances by acts like the John Carroll Band and Sweet Home Chi-

cago Band. Each day will also boast a number of games and contests. Sunday is family day, with a drum circle, a visit from Little Ray’s Reptiles and the Junkyard Symphony. For the first time this year, organizers have introduced a VIP pass for the whole weekend. Shuttle buses are available for $2 at the Strandherd Drive snow dump as parking at Clarke Fields is limited.

Bubble boy disease screening celebrates anniversary Staff

News - Newborn screening for bubble boy disease marked an anniversary this month at the regional children’s hospital in Ottawa, coinciding with a recently published study showing that twice as many newborns are affected by the disease than previously thought. Since last August, Newborn Screening Ontario, which is based at the Children’s Hospital of Eastern Ontario, has been screening newborns for severe combined immune deficiency (SCID), a deadly disorder often referred to as bubble boy disease. The study, which was published on Aug. 20 in the Journal of the American Medical Association, reveals that one in 58,000 newborns is affected by the deficiency, rather than one in 100,000,

which was previously thought. “We are pleased to see a collaboration of this magnitude amongst our newborn screening colleagues in the U.S. as we complete our first full year of SCID screening,” Dr. Michael Geraghty, medical advisor for Newborn Screening Ontario, said in a statement. “We have already identified and diagnosed some children with SCID, but it will be some time before we are able to determine its true prevalence in Ontario.” Screening is crucial in diagnosing babies with this disease since there are typically no clues that an infant may have it, though their faulty immune systems make them more susceptible to recurring, life-threatening infections within their first six months. Ontario is the only jurisdiction in

the country where every infant born is tested for the genetic disorder, according to CHEO. Since the inception of the province-wide screening last year, Newborn Screening Ontario has used a new approach pioneered at CHEO to test more than 145,000 babies. “At least one baby has been diagnosed with SCID and is receiving life-saving treatment,” the hospital said in a statement. Prior to screening, babies who weren’t diagnosed in time could not benefit from treatment, which includes a bone marrow transplant.

There were many opportunities for character building

other called it character building. My sister Audrey had another name for it, which she told me not to repeat in front of Mother.

Marguirite did something nasty to me, Mother called it character building. When my brother Emerson did me some dastardly deed, Mother called it character building. I figured I had enough character building in the 1930s to last me into the next century. And so it was when the old aunt who appeared unannounced at least twice a year, and Audrey and I had to give up our bed upstairs, and sleep on the narrow creton couch in the kitchen, foot to foot – Mother called it character building. The summer was beastly hot that year. The upstairs was like an oven. Even with the windows wide open in the boy’s room and the hall, the slight breeze did little to cool it off. And when Auntie arrived, she went right upstairs like she owned the place, and put her tapestry bag on the chair and laid claim to the

After Audrey and I had redded up the kitchen, the three brothers dragged the wire couch into the coolest room in the house, and we hauled in the thin felt foldover mattress. We didn’t even bother with sheets, so glad were we to have someplace to sleep other than the narrow creton couch, and a cool place at that. The walls of that old house were paper thin. And before we fell asleep, Audrey and I heard Aunty get up several times to use the chamber pot, walk across the floor to the window, and let out long and purposeful sighs.

MARY COOK Mary Cook’s Memories bed Audrey and I shared. We were doomed for the creton couch in the kitchen. Apart from the narrowness of the couch, sleeping in the kitchen was not a hardship in the summer, because the Findlay Oval had already been moved to the summer kitchen, quilts hung on the windows in the daytime to keep the sun out, and the kitchen became the coolest room in the house. It was the narrow couch that was the bane of our existence. Out in the summer kitchen was an old wire couch, the kind where one part sat on top of the other when

it wasn’t in use, but when pulled apart became a double bed. Moving the cook stove to the summer kitchen, left one wall bare, and Audrey asked Mother why the old wire couch couldn’t be moved into the regular kitchen for Audrey and me. Mother hardly gave the idea a moment’s consideration (she was busy cooking dandelion greens, a favourite dish of Aunty’s), and said she saw no reason at all why the couch couldn’t be moved into the main kitchen. T he boys could do that little chore when they came in for supper.

The simple way to shop for insurance.

Pride in the capital The sun was high in the sky as the first floats started to roll down Bank Street on Aug. 24 during Capital Pride’s annual parade. With hundreds of spectators ready to take in the show, organizations from across the city marched in this year’s parade. Above, The Village march in the Capital Pride Parade, left, many parade participants handed out goodies, including free hugs to any spectator willing.

News – The rainbow colours made their way up the flag mast at city hall on Aug. 18 to mark Capital Pride, a week-long festival in the city. Mayor Jim Watson noted it’s the second time in 2014 the rainbow flag has flown at city hall; the flag also flew during the Sochi Olympics. “We have the power to foster that change at the local level and the city has made it a priority,” he said. “How better to demonstrate that Ottawa is a city for everyone…but by raising the rainbow flag.” Ottawa South MP John Fraser also spoke at the flag raising, and said all the Liberal MPPs from the Ottawa area would be taking part in the pride parade. Also in attendance was the U.S. ambassador to Canada, Bruce Heyman and his wife, Vicki. Heyman said the embassy will fly the rainbow flag for a month in support of the event. The U.S. embassy is a community partner of Capital Pride week and sponsored two Americans to come to Ottawa. Cason Crane, the first openly LGBT man to climb the “seven summits – the highest mountain of each continent – will act as the international parade marshal.

Alta Vista councillor, planning chairman stepping down Laura Mueller laura.mueller@metroland.com

News - After 23 years in local politics, Alta Vista Coun. Peter Hume surprised constituents and council alike with his announcement last week that he is withdrawing from the municipal election. Hume announced in a letter to residents that the increasing demands of the job – particularly due to his accessibility through email and social

media – have taken their toll and led to work dominating his life. “I had created an environment which had no work/life balance and that lack of balance wasn’t good for me, wasn’t good for my family and it wasn’t good for the way I interacted with my constituents,” he wrote. His 15-year-old daughter, Helen, played a big role in the decision, Hume said. She recently recounted

how she’d spent more time on schoolwork while in council chambers than at her desk. “I registered in April or May and I fully intended to put together a campaign. I had a campaign team,” he said. “But over the summer, we started to think about my years on city council.” Hume, 51, was first elected in 1991 and became the chairman of the planning committee in 2003. He also sits on the finance

and economic development committee. Hume also served as president of the Association of Municipalities of Ontario from 2008 to 2011. Spending more time with his wife, Anne Marie, and his daughter – a skier who competes around the globe – will help fill Hume’s time. He joked that he even liked his daughter’s idea that he could serve as a “liftie” – a ski-lift operator – over the winter so she could go train in Whistler. “For a little second there, that sounded really appealing,” Hume laughed. Hume said he will miss “being in the thick” of issues, particularly as Ottawa sees the areas around its new light-rail stations develop. But he might still be involved in development issues in the future – on the other side of the council horseshoe. Hume said he’d be pleased to play some role in bringing the type of development he supports – such as a well-de-

Hume throws support behind Canterbury pres Jean Cloutier “Things that I’ve talked about and believed in – would I like to go and actually put those into practise? If I had that opportunity, I’d love to do that.” Hume leaves a big hole as the longstanding chairman of the planning committee, which he has led for 10 years. The next head of that committee will need to be someone who stands behind the city’s updated Official Plan, with its focus on intensification and improving public spaces, Hume said. “You need someone who actually believes in those things to chair the committee, and quite frankly, I look around the table and I think there are lots of them that believe in the Official Plan – they all supported it – and would do a great job chairing the committee,” he said. Hume said he’d like to see

thing that I was always proud of as a skill,” Hume said “That I could be the (Association of Municipalities of Ontario) president – a red Tory – during a Liberal majority government – I think it was those skills that allowed me to bridge and create those coalitions that allowed projects to be successful.” Hume was quick to throw his support behind Jean Cloutier, an accountant and former Canterbury Community Association president who Hume said has long had an interest in the council seat, but refused to run against the incumbent. Cloutier registered three days after Hume announced his withdrawal. Hume said he expects more candidates to come forward and said they will be “good, qualified” candidates. The other two contenders currently registered in Alta Vista are Daher Muse Calin and Hussein Mahmoud.

the city begin to play more of a negotiator’s role in trying to bring wanted amenities and developments to Ottawa, such as a grocery store for Little Italy, which lacks a supermarket.

“Being able to bridge both sides of the political spectrum was something that I was always proud of as a skill.” PETER HUME

Negotiating between disparate interests on council will also be important for the next council and it’s something that Hume says has served him well in his own political career. “Being able to work with Diane Holmes. Being able to work with Allan Hubley. Being able to bridge both sides of the political spectrum was some-

R0022864627_0828

News - Alexandra Yarrow presses a few buttons on an electronic screen within a bank of shiny new black lockers. A small door to one of the lockers pops open, marking an important step in providing expanded library services for Hunt Club and Riverside Park residents, says River Ward Coun. Maria McRae. The high-tech lockers, which became available for use at the Hunt Club-Riverside Park Community Centre on Aug. 18, are the newest pick-up location for library patrons who have placed holds on everything from books to video games. The $30,000 holds lockers are the first of their kind in Ontario. “It’s one-stop shopping now for library service in here,” said McRae. Library staff approached her about 18 months ago with the idea of test-

driving the holds lockers. Her ward is one of two in the city that do not have a bricks-and-mortar library, but with the recent installation of the lockers, residents now have access to the next best thing, said McRae. The closest library branches for residents in Hunt Club and Riverside Park are at Emerald Plaza on Merivale Road, Greenboro on Lorry Greenberg Drive and another on Alta Vista Drive. “For us this is a way to be where people are,” said Yarrow, manager of alternative services for the Ottawa

Public Library. The electronic lockers represent the second installation of cutting-edge technology at the centre, following the introduction of two vending machines full of library materials, from books and museum passes to movies and music CDs, in spring 2010. The machines were the first in Canada, and the second in North America behind Philadelphia. “You can’t keep books in them some days,” said McRae. But if a patron wanted to read some-

thing specific, they could only choose the next available title at the kiosk since the machines couldn’t store holds or requested materials. The library’s bookmobile, which has been servicing the community for decades, will continue making Wednesday stops at the centre. A library staff member has been working out of the community centre twice a week, on Monday evenings, from 4 to 7:30 p.m., and Saturday mornings. But with the new holds lockers in place, the Saturday hours

have been cut since much of the foot traffic during that time was to make holds requests, said McRae. “Certainly (the lockers are) cheaper than the cost of having a seven-daya-week person, and it doesn’t replace that human contact,” she said. An employee will continue to work at the site on Mondays. The technology was made by the same company that has supplied selfcheckout machines at a number of Ottawa library branches. “It’s a very intuitive design, so ... seniors were able to do that on the first try,” Yarrow said. “It’s not something you need an instruction manual to figure out.”

Airport Parkway bridge inches toward completion Erin McCracken erin.mccracken@metroland.com

News - A “huge milestone” was craned in to place over the Airport Parkway last week – an important step forward in the overdue construction of the pedestrian and cycling bridge north of Hunt Club Road. Three pieces of the deck went in on Tuesday and Wednesday of last week. Riv-

er Ward Coun. Maria McRae watched workers fit the pieces together and bolt them in place, among other steps. “It was a huge milestone to actually see that,” said McRae. “It looks like a bridge now, and that structure is magnificent, and it was meant to be a gateway. That was what the community wanted as part of the design. “When you go near the

project it’s obvious we’re very, very close to getting this thing done right now.” Railings are now being installed along the deck, a process that is expected to continue until the end of September. Also in September, cables will be strung between the deck and the standalone anchorage piece that has hovered over the road for some time. The footbridge is expected

to be ready for use by the end of the year, more than three years after the original deadline. “It’s tracking on time right now,” said McRae. “It’s very consistent with what we said last October, which was just a heartbreaking day on many fronts.” Originally budgeted to cost $6.8 million, the infrastructure project has spiked to $11

million, though the city hopes to recoup the costs associated with the faulty design of the original tower that had to be torn down after flaws were discovered. The city launched a $4.6million lawsuit earlier this year against WSP Canada Inc., which was known as Genivar when it designed the structure. A third-party review of the

project published in February of this year also led to the city disciplining staff for contributing to the problems. “It was such a betrayal … to find out there were problems with the design of that bridge,” said McRae, who began lobbying for a safe crossing at the parkway in her first term of office.

“Thousands of people live in this part of our city and tragically there have been people killed on the Airport Parkway, very badly hurt,� she said. The east-west link gives people west of the busy road easier and safer access to the Greenboro transit station on the opposite side at the South Keys Shopping Centre. It is also being built in consideration of future expansion of the parkway. “So (the) number one thing is to link the community with cycling, walking, either to get to public transit or take the cycling paths,� said McRae. “Number two, it allows people to safely get inside the Sawmill Creek constructed wetlands and the cycling path.�

Following the results of the independent review on what went wrong in the project, construction started back up in early spring of this year. But McRae can still recall driving by the construction site and seeing chunks of concrete falling in the fall of 2011. “It looked like hockey pucks coming off the bridge,� she said. “I was there when they took it down. It was just awful.

An update on the status of his condition was not known before press time. Police are asking anyone who witnessed the incident to come forward by calling the collision investigation

unit at 613-236-1222, ext. 2481.

Add an exotic touch to you child’s lunchbox Lifestyle - Are you and your kids fed up with insipid lunches? Is your family threatening to strike over the perennial ham and cheese sandwich with carrot sticks? Are they pleading for money to eat at the school cafeteria? Are you spending most of your own pocket money on snack bar meals? Don’t despair! It is possible and easy to make your lunches more diverse and appetizing. First of all, get ready to step out of your comfort zone of sandwich, veggie sticks, and an apple or banana. An easy way to create variety is by changing the kind of bread you

use. Trade in traditional sliced bread for Indian naan bread or half a pita bread. Try adding a new kind of cheese to sandwiches; feta is a delicious salty cheese that many young people discover they like. You can also prepare rice or vermicelli salads with finely diced raw or leftover vegetables and a yummy vinaigrette. Check the weekly specials at the grocery store; when berries or unique fruits and vegetables are on sale, give them a try. Sliced zucchini makes a nice substitute for cucumber, and avocado halves eaten

with a spoon out of the shell make a creamy, healthy vegetable alternative. Try mixing flavours to add novelty to familiar foods — put a few walnut halves, dried cranberries, or mango slices in a chicken salad sandwich. The taste of a roast beef sandwich is deliciously transformed by including some sliced cooked fig or date. Turn lunch preparation into a family affair. Children will be more tempted to taste a bean salad or a spinach pizza if they helped to make it. To keep things varied, get into the habit of researching lunchbox

possibilities.

Let’s all unite to eradicate bullying

Bullying is not only about pushing people around or calling them names. There are in fact four principal types of bullying, and being able to identify them is a ďŹ rst step in the ďŹ ght to eradicate this scourge. Verbal bullying includes insults, sarcasms, teasing, the spreading of rumours, threats, inappropriate sexual comments, and slurs about culture, race, religion, gender, or sexual-orientation. Social bullying includes group threats, making a scapegoat of someone, exclusion, public humiliation, and demeaning grafďŹ ti. Physical bullying includes hitting, pushing, pinching, hounding, jostling, stealing or destroying possessions, and sexual touching of an undesirable nature. Cyberbullying includes using the Internet or text messaging to bully, humiliate, make fun of, or circulate rumours about someone.

DEVASTATING EFFECTS

Just as there are many forms of bullying, there are also many devastating effects. Victims can experience an inordinate amount of insecurity, distress, withdrawal, isolation, fear, stress, anxiety, loss of self-conďŹ dence, and nightmares. Some victims can also feel physical symptoms such as headaches, stomach aches, nausea, fatigue, and panic attacks. Bullying can even lead to academic problems, including dropping out of school. In a few cases – and only one case is too many – the pain caused by bullying can cause the victim to consider committing suicide. No one should have to feel wounded or humiliated or live in fear or isolation. Let’s all unite to eradicate bullying. Are you, or one of your friends, a victim of bullying? Is your child a victim, or perhaps even the bully? Several resources are available to you, including Kids Help Phone at 1-800668-6868 or www.kidshelpphone.ca.

Lifestyle - According to the Canadian Institutes of Health Research, at least one Canadian teenager out of three can tell stories about what it’s like to be a victim of bullying at school. Other Canadian studies show that bullying occurs every seven minutes in the playground and every 25 minutes in the classroom. Do these statistics shock you? Whether you’re a student, parent, or educator, you have a role to play in putting an end to bullying.

Dyscalculia: When numbers turn into a nightmare Lifestyle - Sarah doesn’t like math. She has difďŹ culty reading and writing numbers, she can’t remember her multiplication tables, and the simplest calculation discourages her. When she’s asked to solve a problem, the task is laborious and she feels stupid. Sarah may suffer from a math disability: dyscalculia, or numlexia. Dyscalculia is to numbers what dyslexia is to letters. The number 243 can turn into 200403 inside the heads of children with dyscalculia. They use their ďŹ ngers when asked to count, and addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division are incomprehensible. There are several outward signs of this learning disability, but they have nothing to do with intellectual disability or sensory disorders. Before diagnosing dyscalculia, health pro-

fessionals eliminate other hypotheses, such as problems with vision, hearing, or the consequences of brain trauma, for example. A neuropsychological examination is then conducted in order to assess intellectual quotient, concentration, memory and language. These procedures may seem to take a long time, but they are vital in order to avoid making a premature diagnosis, which could point doctors in the wrong direction. Children diagnosed with dyscalculia are treated by a speech therapist. The length of the treatment varies, as each case is unique, but excellent results are entirely possible. If you’re concerned that your child may suffer from a math disability, talk about it with a professional who will be able to direct you towards appropriate assessments and treatments.

Long live extracurricular sports Lifestyle - If your children come home from school at the beginning of the school year asking if they can join the school’s volleyball or badminton team, think before you object. Joining a sports team or club is a great idea for several different reasons. Wearing the school’s colours encourages a feeling of belong-

ing in your children. At the same time, it will probably help them to more easily accept the constraints of student life. Besides, many schools require that students maintain passing grades in order to play on teams. That can be a real source of motivation for students inclined towards homework laziness or who are less academically gifted than

the average. The sedentary lifestyle of today’s young people is alarming. Kids no longer naturally migrate outdoors after school to play. Playing sports on a team at school will help your children become more active, and if they follow the advice of their coaches, they’ll also be much more concerned about eating well.

Many schools also offer a late bus service for students who go to the gym after classes. That means playing after-school sports won’t necessarily entail a lot of extra driving for you. And last but not least, think about the pride you’ll feel when you see your children playing. Who knows, perhaps they’ll be the star athletes of their teams!.

Lifestyle - Watching children leave home for their very first day of school is always an emotional time for parents. After a last goodbye, many mums and dads will spill tears of joy and pride, but sometimes those tears can be caused by anguish and worry. Leaving children in the hands of strangers is never easy. Parents must prepare themselves in advance so they can keep their composure during this big day in the lives of their children. It is helpful to establish the new routine several days before school starts. Set the alarm clock to wake up at a reasonable hour and take the time to eat breakfast with your children. Practise taking the route to school. In other words, if you get your children used to the new routine, you will probably feel reassured as well. I the last days before school starts, and after offering all the support you can give to your children, give yourself some time to catch your breath. You deserve a break after all the back-to-school rushing around.

SUBMITTED

As your child’s first ever day at school approaches, try not to be overwhelmed by anxiety; this could be very upsetting for your little one. Relax in a candle-lit bubble bath, go for a walk or distract yourself with a good book. Acknowledge your feelings without any judgment, and just try to enjoy yourself. It is OK to feel nervous, but do try to avoid becoming overwhelmed by anxiety. This would be upsetting to your children. Little boys and girls

are very perceptive. By showing that they are in control of the situation, parents will help their children feel safe and self-confident. The first day of school is certainly a very special time, but it is a normal step in the life of any child. So relax, keep smiling, and above all, be positive.

Lifestyle - Does your child complain of a stomach ache every morning, hoping he’ll have a day at home? Does she drag her heels as she gets on the school bus? Children who resist going to school might not be seeing its relevance in their lives, or they might be unsure about their abilities. As a parent, your attitude and your actions play a vital role in how your children feel about learning. Here are ďŹ ve ways to get your kid feeling better about school: 1. Marks aren’t everything. Children hate being judged solely on their marks. It’s true that results are important, but above all, take an interest in

what they are learning. 2. Make learning fun. If your children are not succeeding because they ďŹ nd a subject boring, try and ďŹ nd out what exactly is boring them. MAKE IT INTERESTING

Perhaps there’s a way to personalize the learning method or to ďŹ nd another angle that can make the subject more interesting; interactive studying is just one example. Remember that it’s normal to prefer one subject over another and to not succeed equally well in all of them. It’s the same for adults! 3. Get involved. Your children will enjoy school a

R0012861972

Help your children to love going to school lot more if they realize that school is important to you. Be sure to attend parentteacher meetings at the beginning of the year, and consider becoming a volunteer for some school activities. 4. Routine is important. Help your children get into the habit of doing homework at the same time every day. Being regular will make the inevitable work seem less painful than panicking at the last minute, such as before bed or at breakfast time the next morning. 5. Press the “pause� button. Ensure that there is some free time in your children’s schedules so they can relax, play, and reduce their stress levels.

Cheese tostaditas with nectarine salsa an easy app PREPARATION

Lifestyle - These colourful bites are a hit with all ages. Make and refrigerate ingredients ahead of time, then have friends or family help fill the cups at serving time. For a faster version, omit the cheese filling, double the salsa and let everyone help themselves. Preparation time: 45 minutes. Makes 24 appetizers. INGREDIENTS

• 125 ml (1/2 cup) finely diced sweet red pepper • 75 ml (1/3 cup) minced fresh coriander • 50 ml (1/4 cup) finely diced red onion • 15 ml (1 tbsp) minced jalapeno pepper • Grated zest of 1 lime • 5 ml (1 tsp) fresh lime juice

MICHELLE NASH/METROLAND

Race to the finish Thirty young racers participated in this year’s Manotick Village and Community Association’s fourth annual Soapbox Derby on Aug. 24. Flying down Beaverwood Road, the soapbox racers fought hard to get the fastest time, to win the coveted Soapbox Derby’s grand prize.

Foodland Ontario R0042764449

• 125 g (4 oz) light cream cheese, softened • 1 clove garlic, minced • 4 ml (3/4 tsp) dried oregano leaves • 4 ml (3/4 tsp) each ground cumin and chili powder • 24 corn tortilla cups (scoops) Salsa: • 250 ml (1 cup) diced nectarines or peaches

In a small bowl, blend together the cheese, garlic, oregano, cumin and chili powder until smooth. Salsa: In a medium bowl, combine the nectarines, sweet pepper, coriander, onion, jalapeno pepper, lime zest and juice. To serve, spoon or pipe 5 ml (1 tsp) of the cheese filling into each cup (scoop) and top with 10 ml (2 tsp) of salsa. Tips: For easy piping, put cheese mixture into plastic bag, and seal and snip the corner of the bag to create small opening. If making the cheese filling ahead of time, cover the mixture and refrigerate. Soften it in a microwave before filling cups.

Achilles Tendinopathy (AT) refers to the inammatory and degenerative changes to the Achilles tendon. The gastrocnemius and soleus muscles combine to form the Achilles, which is the strongest tendon in the body. Yet despite its strength, it has a weakness—it can frequently be injured. That predisposition to injury is attributed to the anatomy of the tendon and biomechanics of the foot.

The two muscles which form the Achilles cross three joints –the knee, ankle and subatalar joint and insert into the calcaneus. Plantar exing the foot or tendon allows for propulsion, enabling us run or jump. A bursa between the Achilles tendon and calcaneus cushions and lubricates the tendon. When inammation of the bursa occurs alongside insertional Achilles Tendinopathy (AT) this is known as “Haglund’s Syndromeâ€?. Non-insertional AT is more common, encountered due to an area of hypovascularity near the calcaneal insertion. Insertion of the tendon into the calcaneus means the calcaneal eversion at the subtalar joint, commonly referred to as at feet, stressed the tendon, and in most cases, tendon degeneration is located at the medial aspect.

forces up to eight times greater than a person’s body weight. AT pain is a direct result of tendon degeneration. There is a 52 per cent chance that an elite long distance runner will develop an Achilles injury at some stage of their life. Patients with AT can be treated with foot orthotics used in a combination of other modalities, such as physical therapy.
