Public school board inks deal with high school teachers’ union Full ratification of contract expected by Sept. 30 The school year will continue according to plan for Ottawa high school students now that a tentative contract agreement has been forged between the local public school board and its teachers’ union. On Sept. 21, the OttawaCarleton District School Board announced it had reached a tentative agreement with the Ontario Secondary School Teachers’ Federation (OSSTF) District 25, shortly after the main agreement between the province, OSSTF and school boards association was ratified.

The initial agreement in late August put an end to the labour action that commenced in late spring of this year and left parents worried about what the coming school year might bring. “This was a new bargaining process and I am very happy that we have been able to work together with OSSTF to achieve this tentative, local agreement,” stated OCDSB Director of Education Jennifer Adams.  “Labour negotiations can be challenging, but we have the utmost respect for all of our employees and we value the work they do.  That has guid-

ed us through the negotiations process.” a first

The two parties can boast that theirs is the first locallynegotiated settlement in the province, though the exact terms will remain secret until full ratification occurs. That is expected to happen by Sept. 30. The OSSTF was the first of the province’s teachers unions to strike a tentative deal with the province. Only one, the Elementary Teachers Federation of On-

tario (ETFO), has not reached a deal, and is currently ramping up its work-to-rule campaign in advance of a possible round of rotating strikes in October. OSSTF District 25 President Dan Maxwell referenced the long process in his remarks on the agreement. “After several months of local bargaining under a completely new two-tiered process, we have finally reached a local deal,” he said. “This deal speaks to the steadfast support of our members who have been on a partial withdrawal of services since last May.”

A ride for refugees, displaced people and others in need of help has been organized for Oct. 3, and will head through Kanata, into Dunrobin and back, with hopes of raising $75,000.

Ride for refugees and others in need to head through Kanata Nearly $50,000 already raised for various charities Staff

A bike ride and walk to raise money for refugees and others in need will be headed through Kanata and into Dunrobin Oct. 3. The event, called the Ride for Refuge, is organized in both the U.S. and Canada, and helps charities to raise money for refugees, migrant families, orphans, the home-

less, sex-trade survivors and others through teams of walkers or riders. This year’s ride is hosted by Matthew House Ottawa, which provides refugee services. The event offers 10-, 25and 50-kilometre rides, and a five-kilometre walk, with each beginning at 9 and 9:30 a.m. respectively. With the world well aware

of Syrian refugees in need of places to start their lives again, some refugee support organizations in Ottawa are hoping residents will look to events like these to lend a hand. As of Sept. 28, $49,026 has been raised. The goal is to reach $75,000. So far 43 teams have registered for the event, which begins and ends at the Mitel Building at 360 Legget Dr. To find out more about the ride, visit rideforrefuge.org/ location/Ottawa.

New wells or well-being? To the editor,

I am strongly opposed to further drilling off the coast of any of Canada’s shores; it is time that decisions be made that not only protect the coastal environment but also protect industries important to those that live there. The argument that Canada or the world needs further development of fossil fuels is no longer valid in a time where climate change requires us to reduce not increase the release of CO2. Responsible governments are turning to renewable energy development rather than propping up a dying and destructive form of energy.

The current application from Shell to drill off the coast of Nova Scotia in the Shelburne Basin will put at risk important fishing grounds and the Sable Island National Park Reserve. Providing food and protecting wild life is more important than yet another oil well that threatens the well being of all who live off a well established industry while pouring yet more fossil fuel into a warming planet. Some might question why both cannot co-exist. The answer lies in the possibility of a blowout, which like the genie in the bottle is impossible to put back. Once the oil is out it usually poisons the water and shore-

lines, endangering wildlife and killing industries that rely on them. Increasing the production of fossil fuels is not in our best interests. Funding green energy is. Shell’s capacity to effectively cap a blowout is impeded by having its emergency equipment located more than 5,000 kilometres away. This would not meet any definition of prudent and safe operations of a project of this kind. The future global existence as we know it is at risk. Now is not the time to accelerate its demise or risk damaging a beautiful part of our country. Vivien Ratcliffe Ottawa

Refugee advice coming To the editor:

The crisis in Syria has galvanized cities around the world with a common feeling that we can and should do more. Ottawa has a proud history of welcoming refugees and I have heard clearly from residents all across the city that they are ready to do their part once again. The question I hear most on this issue is not “Should we help?” but rather “How can we help?” To begin answering it, I held a very constructive first discussion with faith leaders and frontline organizations on how our community – and other communities across

Canada – can help with the continuing Syrian refugee crisis. Our discussions clearly demonstrated that there is capacity in the city, as well as an overwhelming desire amongst faith groups, community organizations and residents, to help in whichever way they can. As a facilitator of our community’s humanitarian efforts, the City of Ottawa will be holding a public information forum and panel discussion at city hall to bring together our residents and community groups that wish to help with subject matter experts that can provide them with the knowledge and contacts that will make their

involvement possible. This session will take place on Thursday, Oct. 1, from 5 to 7 p.m. The information forum will be followed by a legal clinic offered by lawyers from the University of Ottawa’s refugee sponsorship support program and the Canadian Association of Refugee Lawyers, where they will provide assistance to residents wishing to sponsor Syrian refugees. I encourage you to save the date and to join us for this session. For more information on our Syrian refugees resettlement efforts, please visit Ottawa.ca/Syria. Mayor Jim Watson

I’ve got a hunch about the devolution of man

T

he last few weeks have renewed my belief that we’re devolving as a species. Caught up in election work that spans four time zones, I have found myself sitting at my desk as early as 5 a.m. and still taking phone calls at 11 p.m. Of course I take breaks in between, but most of my day is spent hunched over my keyboard, tapping at keys in the name of research and a nice bit of prose. In between, my headset resting ever so lightly on my noggin, I take calls and type some more. I am the epitome of the knowledge economy. The odd time, if I know I’ll be previewing video or on a particularly long conversation, I’ll sit and pedal gently on my exercise bike. That’s happened four times in as many weeks, so I won’t brag about it. Spending our days sitting, hunched forward over a keyboard, with no circulation to our extremities makes devolution a real possibility, of course. A few hundred years from now, should the human species still exist, we’ll look

BRYNNA LESLIE Capital Muse back and wonder about a society that needed an excuse to move, rather than an excuse to rest. We’ll note the general change in body form, from upright, muscular homo sapiens to figures resembling the apes from which evolutionary theorists believe we’ve developed. I think of the animation, WALL-E, with all the overweight people who survived the apocalypse riding around on moveable chairs and sidewalks. The movie nailed it on the one hand, but if I were to redesign the characters, they’d be somewhat more bent over than they appear in the film. As a knowledge society, we also get trapped in our

heads a lot. In the absence of physical movement, our big brain muscles – ever efficient – move into overdrive. I have a personal theory that many of today’s mental health issues – including depression, addiction and manic behaviours – stem from our lack of movement. That doesn’t mean exercise can cure depression, but it can help significantly. More than 30 years of research into treatment of one of the most common mental health issues in our society has shown that exercise can be as effective as antidepressants in treating depression. A 1999 study in the Archives of Internal Medicine divided people into three groups – those who were put

on a cardio program to treat depression; those who took antidepressants and those who did both. By the end of the study period, 60 to 70 per cent of people in all three groups no longer had major depression. Follow-up studies showed that the exercise group was the most likely to stave off depression. An online report from Harvard Medical School notes the following: “A study published in 2005 found that walking fast for about 35 minutes a day five times a week or 60 minutes a day three times a week had a significant influence on mild to moderate depression symptoms. Walking fast for only 15 minutes a day five times a week or doing stretching exercises three times a week did not help as much.� Could it be that all our sitting and thinking is not only altering our body shape, but also altering the chemicals in our brains? And as a result, there’s something bigger happening, perhaps more significant – we’re losing the ability, as a society, to feed ourselves. Like the pets that we coddle,

we sit and wait to get fed – and I’m not talking about takeout. Take a drive down some of the roads south of the Ottawa airport, and check how once

who’ve gone west to Saskatchewan and Alberta to take advantage of a different kind of natural resources boom. We sit, we type, we eat – and in turn, we hunch, we

Taxi drivers deserve to work

T

he city’s taxi drivers find themselves in a tough spot. Uber has created a price challenge for current licensed taxi drivers. Uber operators have no taxi licence, iffy insurance rules and choose to do part-time, sporadic work aimed at peak periods of demand. The licensed drivers who used to serve the airport – and are now locked out – face added fees that the airport authority has washed their hands of and which airport fleet drivers must pay. The fees arrive without the ability to pass on some of their extra costs to customers. Driving a licensed cab is a full-time job, one that often supports a family. In some cases the long hours help to pay off the debt incurred by buying a taxi licence plate – plates that Uber drivers do not have to have. No taxi passenger should begrudge that part of a taxi fare that goes to a taxpaying, hard-working driver. We can take exception with high rates, but that’s the system put in place by dispatch companies in concert with our elected councillors at city hall. They set the rates – not the drivers.

The drivers who are locked out are not rich. There are no millionaires among them. They work long hours with no guarantee of good money, all while risking physical harm: both from the dangers of driving in city traffic every day and from unknown passengers. Your mom told you not to pick up strangers. Taxi drivers pick up strangers in dark places every day. The people who choose to drive for Uber are working part-time for less pay, slowly nibbling away at full-time jobs. It’s the Wal-Mart-ization of an entire livelihood as employees get forced to work for less money because customers want to pay the lowest possible price. Unless of course the job can be outsourced to a developing country – and then they don’t work at all. This is a real-world case of “pay me now or pay me later� if we turn full-time workers into the unemployed and spread their incomes across a parttime landscape of our own making. Maybe there even more desperate people out there willing to give paying customers piggyback rides around town. Those in need of transportation in the real world should support the taxi drivers now on strike.

Filling the music gap

W

hen Ken Rockburn’s book, We Are As the Times Are, was launched at Irene’s a couple of weeks ago, the tables were full of old-timers, some of them the very performers who had filled Le Hibou, the legendary coffeehouse that is the subject of the book. (The title is from a song by William Hawkins, one of those performers, and he was there.) The book is fascinating even for someone like me who arrived in the city after the Le Hibou’s day had passed. In its various locations, from Rideau Street to Bank Street to Sussex Drive, the club was host to some of the most celebrated and influential artists of the day – from Sonny Terry and Brownie McGhee, to Gordon Lightfoot, to Joni Mitch-

of anecdotes and good gossip, you get a clear sense of a scene that was distinctly Ottawa. And it makes me wonder if there is such a scene now. Both Rockburn and I are probably far too old to know. But I asked him anyway. He was quick to point out the differences between now and Le Hibou’s era, 1960-1975. “Back then your options were severely limited,� he said. “A few dark corners on radio, one or two record counters downtown, and, around the start of the Sixties, virtually no music venues that were there for kids in high school or university. So a place like Le Hibou, latching onto the burgeoning folk music scene, very easily became the focal point, making it appear as if it was distinctive.� That’s true.

book groups devoted to their music. They can find Internet radio stations that play nothing but. But is it possible that this abundance of riches, rather than cutting into the appetite for live music, has stimulated it? Says Rockburn: “I don’t pretend to be a part of it any longer but, from a distance, it sure seems to me that Ottawa has a vibrant and thriving pop culture scene. You only have to look at the music clubs, the smaller art galleries, and events like Nuit Blanche to see that.� Those are encouraging words for those who think we shouldn’t be getting all our culture from looking at screens. There have been some discouraging events on the local folk and jazz scenes in recent years, even though festivals more or less devoted to them have got bigger and bigger. Rasputin’s is gone. Irene’s survives. Could Le Hibou, or something like it, succeed today? CLASSIFIED ADVERTISING SALES:

Hospital serves up poor food choices for patients To the editor,

Re: “Councillor, Biagio’s team up to reach hospital funding goal,” Sept. 24. After weeks of almost daily visiting a senior member of the family, bringing him fresh fruits and vegetables, I wrote to the Queensway Carleton Hospital board of trustees, chief of staff and CEO to complain of the unhealthful patient menus, which are full of highly processed junk food and drinks – white flour pasta, pizza crust

and crackers, white rice, sugarladen drinks and flavoured yogurts – and the total absence of whole grain products and plain yogurt, the scarcity/tiny portions of fresh fruits and vegetables and cooked/baked beans. These un-nutritious menus prolong patient recovery and necessitate the higher use of laxatives and expensive drugs. I hope people complain to the trustees about the lack of attention paid to the nutritional needs of all patients. The trustees are failing in their fiduciary

Wilkinson recognized for more than 25 years of service Adam Kveton

adam.kveton@metroland.com

Kanata North Coun. Marianne Wilkinson accepted a special mayoral certificate on Sept. 23, recognizing her more than 25 years as an elected municipal official. Mayor Jim Watson presented her with the award, saying, “It’s inspiring to see (Wilkinson) at work representing the interests of Kanata residents so ably and for so many years. She has many goals for her community and our city, and I look forward to working with her as she pursues those goals going forward.” After accepting the award, Wilkinson tweeted, “Thank you for the best wishes. I look forward to the next 25 years.” In a subsequent interview, Wilkinson said the comment was tongue in cheek, adding that she doesn’t know if she will run for another term in office, saying it depends on many things like her health, and whether she feels she has the support of the community.

That’s something she has received time and time again, and for much more than 25 years, said Wilkinson. “It’s really been a 46-year journey, because when I’m not on council I’ve been president of the community association and various other things,” she said. Born in Ottawa, and raised in Ottawa and Calgary, Wilkinson was a teacher in Perth, Hamilton and Toronto with a degree in honours geography before moving to Kanata in the former March township in 1968. That got her on the ground floor of a new community, giving her an experience unlike many of her colleagues, she said. “I started when it was very small, and we had no staff in planning, no staff in recreation, so we in council had to do all that work. I really learned how a small community works,” said Wilkinson. Serving as a councillor of March township from 1970 to 1974, Wilkinson was put

in charge of planning, with a voluntary committee of residents. “We won two national design awards, and I always said it’s because the people involved cared, and that’s something I’ve carried with me right through everything,” she said. But her greatest accomplishment was helping to form the city of Kanata, she said. The reeve of March township at the time, Wilkinson worked with Goulbourn and Nepean townships to create the city of Kanata, which was incorporated as a city by the province in 1978. It was an uphill battle, she said, with some last minute lobbying of the three provincial parties required to have the legislation passed before summer recess. It was a hugely important change, said Wilkinson, placing much of the growing communities on the west side of the Greenbelt under one government, allowing for better services, and ultimately a

City begins building sidewalks up to Eagleson overpass Adam Kveton

The botched Eagleson overpass sidewalk that left commuters walking into traffic caused the city to close the walkway. It should be fixed by this winter, say Kanata councillors. But not before the city builds proper sidewalks right up to the provincially-owned Highway 417 overpass. Construction on the city’s portion of the work began Sept. 23. The new sidewalks will link Campeau Drive to the highway’s westbound onramp, and from the eastbound on-ramp to the eastbound offramp, says the city. Both Kanata Couns. Marianne Wilkinson and Allan Hubley hope the city work is one of the very last steps in making the overpass safe for pedestrians. “We are really happy it’s

getting done and we are going to follow it through until all the work is done,” said Hubley. Construction is planned to take place during off-peak hours, with no impact on highway ramps. Temporary pedestrian walkways will also be maintained during construction. As for the province’s work – that won’t start until after city construction has ended, said Wilkinson. “(The province) is working on a design and they will do it after we do our work,” she said. The actual overpass, like all bridges spanning Highway 417, is under the province’s jurisdiction, though municipal funds sometimes go into building each original bridge. Attention was brought to the greater need for pedestrian infrastructure in that area last winter when the city closed the newly built side-

walk across the overpass. Repairs, a new median and the addition of a sidewalk to the bridge, which finished in October, were include in an $86-million west end Highway 417 expansion project. However, the so-called sidewalk was less than 1.5 metres wide, meaning it didn’t actually qualify as being a sidewalk, said Wilkinson. In addition to not meeting a technical definition, the sidewalk wasn’t wide enough for city snowplows. It was the accumulation of snow that ultimately caused the closure of the sidewalk for the winter months. “People were stepping out into traffic (to cross the overpass),” said Hubley in a previous interview, “So it was only a matter of time that someone was going to get hurt.” See PROVINCE, page 13

Province expected to widen ‘dangerous’ walkway before winter Continued from page 12

The sidewalk’s curb also didn’t allow for wheelchair access, and a cutout near the middle of the bridge for drainage made it even less accessible. Though the city considered having staff plow the sidewalk by hand, that was judged unsafe. That left many bus riders without a way to cross Eagleson, especially those north of the highway who would cross the overpass to reach buses at the Eagleson park-and-ride. “I’m not poking at the province for this. Errors happen,” said Hubley at the time. “They happen on city projects too; they happen in the private sector.” Both Hubley and Wilkinson had since exacted promises from the province that the sidewalk would indeed be made usable in 2015. Wilkinson had expressed a hope that the city would be able to construct a proper sidewalk up to the bridge to coincide with the province’s work, and now Hubley and Wilkinson expect all construction to be done be-

Snow accumulates after city crews discovered they couldn’t plough the walkway over Eagleson overpass safely last winter. Now, the city has started work to bring a sidewalk up to the overpass, while the province is expected to widen the overpass walkway before the start of winter. fore this winter. “That was what we’ve been told it’s going to get done by (the Ministry of Transportation) and we are waiting to see it happen,” said Wilkinson. Both councillors said they did not

know how much the city sidewalk work would cost or exactly how long it would take, though Wilkinson estimated a few weeks would be required for the city’s construction, and added, “It’s not a terribly expensive job.”

OMB sides with developer on 23-townhouse proposal

Carp Farmers’ market

Adam Kveton

adam.kveton@metroland.com

A 23-townhouse development planned for Bachman Terrace in Katimavik-Hazeldean is ready to go ahead despite the city refusing the developer’s application and widespread opposition from the community and the area’s councillor. Thanks to an Ontario Municipal Board decision rendered Aug. 21, Tega Developments Inc. is free to build their townhouses at 19 and 23 Bachman Terrace, where community members, Kanata South Coun. Allan Hubley and the city have concerns over the density on the property. Other concerns include a lack of snow and garbage storage space, and the possible impact on a nearby park and the surrounding roads. The lot area is about a third

development a bad name, and most of the other developers in this city would never come

forward with a proposal like this,” said Hubley. “It’s a bad proposal.” But the proposal process didn’t start that way, he said. Several years ago when the first proposal for the property came in, a plan for 14 to 16 townhomes was being proposed, he said. “It would include underground parking. It was, I will say, a good proposal,” said Hubley. After holding a community meeting on the proposal, support was mixed and changes requested, he said. However, Tega came back with a proposal for 25 homes. “Then they lost every bit of support that they had in the community,” said Hubley. “There was no place to store snow. There was no visitor parking. There was no place to store garbage.” See NEARLY, page 17

The community was also concerned about rain water runoff from the development, which would have very little green space itself. “There is going to be a lot of their storm water being drained into that park,” he said. As last minute effort, Tega dropped the proposal to 23 townhomes, said Hubley, who said it wasn’t enough of a compromise for the city to allow the required rezoning, and Tega went to the Ontario Municipal Board to appeal. The board sided with Tega. “I was optimistic that the OMB would recognize the need for development to have proper parking, proper garbage, proper snow storage, but the OMB did not,” said Hubley. “I thought they would drop it down to the 16 to 18 range that would be much more respectful of the neighborhood,” he added. “This is a classic example of what’s wrong with the OMB under its current mandate,” he said. “This is why the OMB process needs to be revitalized and refocused on what are the concerns of the community.” Tega Developments did not respond to multiple attempts to contact them. After suggesting at a Katimavik-Hazeldean Community Association meeting on Sept. 14 that Tega could begin construction “tomorrow,” Hubley added, “We’re not going to make life easy for them.”

The role of the neck in post-concussion syndrome:

ASK THE CHIROPRACTOR

With an estimated 3.8 million concussions per year in the United States, there has been a lot of attention given to this condition. When the symptoms of a concussion linger for a number of weeks or months it is classified as postconcussion syndrome. It is of little surprise that the neck can be involved in post-concussion syndrome when you consider that studies have shown that it takes only 4.5 g’s of acceleration to cause a mild strain injury to the tissues of the cervical spine. In the event of a concussion the head can accelerate between 60 and 160 g’s. What is really interesting is that the symptoms of post-concussion syndrome are very similar to injuries or dysfunction of the cervical spine. This includes; headaches, dizziness, loss of balance, nausea, visual and auditory disturbances, reduced cognitive function and many other signs and symptoms.

A coalition of leading health organizations is calling on the Ontario government to develop a comprehensive alcohol strategy to address the health harms of alcohol. The planned introduction of beer sales to grocery stores will increase alcohol availability across the province. Evidence from other jurisdictions shows that expanding alcohol availability leads to increased consumption and related harms. “A direct relationship between increased alcohol availability and greater health and social harm is well established,” says Dr. Catherine Zahn, CAMH President and CEO. “We need coordinated leadership and a comprehensive strategy to ensure that health is not an afterthought when it comes to alcohol policy.” Other provinces, including Nova Scotia and Alberta, have alcohol strategies in place. Ontario has been a national leader in a number of alcohol policy areas but we are beginning to fall behind. While the sale of alcohol plays an important role in Ontario’s economy, the costs far exceed the revenues. Alcohol has recently been shown to increase the risk of several types of cancer. The annual costs of alcoholrelated health care, law enforcement, corrections, lost productivity, motor vehicle collisions, injuries, and social problems, are estimated at $5.3 billion annually – well above the alcohol revenue accruing to the province. “Alcohol is a powerful drug with health consequences for individuals, families, and communities. Rather than normalizing alcohol sales like it would for any other commodity, the government must ensure it is doing everything it can to protect the health and well-being of Ontarians,” says Dr. Doris Grinspun, Chief Executive Officer of the Registered Nurses’ Association of Ontario, adding that “RNs, NPs and nursing students expect the province will consult broadly with organizations to deal with the inevitable harms that come with easy access to alcohol.” Health-focused, evidence-based policies can help mitigate harms caused by alcohol consumption. The most effective population-level approaches include: socially responsible pricing, limits on the number of retail outlets and hours of operation,

and restrictions on advertising. Camille Quenneville, Chief Executive Officer of the Canadian Mental Health Association, Ontario is clear: “For individuals living with mental health conditions, the impact alcohol can have on their lives can be debilitating and tragic. Now is the time for the government to create a comprehensive provincial alcohol strategy to improve the health of all Ontarians.” When implemented alongside more targeted interventions like drinking and driving countermeasures, enforcement of the minimum legal drinking age, and screening and brief intervention in the primary care setting, these approaches have consistently been shown to help reduce alcohol-related problems. “Alcohol is a public health issue and as such, we welcome a provincial alcohol strategy for Ontario that is developed through a public health lens,” said Rita Notarandrea, Chief Executive Officer of the Canadian Centre on Substance Abuse and a Co-Chair of the National Alcohol Strategy Advisory Committee. “We are pleased to offer our evidenceinformed resources and expertise to assist the Government of Ontario in developing a comprehensive strategy, just as we have guided the Government of Manitoba and others in building strategies to control alcohol availability, improve awareness of low-risk drinking guidelines and promote a culture of moderation to reduce the harms associated with alcohol.” “An approach to alcohol policy that prioritizes public health and considers the costs associated with alcohol consumption is critical to the health and well-being of Ontarians,” said Larry Stinson, President of the Ontario Public Health Association. The coalition includes the following organizations: · Canadian Centre on Substance Abuse · Canadian Mental Health Association, Ontario · Centre for Addiction and Mental Health · Mothers Against Drunk Driving Canada · Ontario Public Health Association · Registered Nurses Association of Ontario.

BRIER DODGE/METROLAND

Front line workers open up umbrellas to reveal the United Way’s new campaign goal as confetti flies through the air at Marion Dewar Plaza on Sept. 24. Police chief and co-chair of the campaign Charles Bordeleau encouraged those in the audience to get out their phones, and donate via text message.

United Way’s goal is to change lives Brier Dodge brier.dodge@metroland.com

Umbrellas opened up all over Marian Dewar Plaza at City Hall on Sept. 24 to reveal the number 57,200, the number of people United Way Ottawa hopes to help through its 201516 campaign. While it was a sunshinefilled day with no rain, campaign organizers hoped as soon as the umbrellas went up, money would start pouring in. The 57,200 number was calculated using a $16 million target, and a few different figures. A child who participates in a homework club might need limited resources to be helped, while a youth who has an extended stay in a shelter would be worked into the total budget

at a higher cost. “In some cases, it’ll be a crisis hotline that really doesn’t cost a lot, but it can make a world of difference,” said United Way Ottawa CEO Michael Allen. “But supports for drug or alcohol addiction treatment are a little more expensive.” The campaign kick-off was hosted at City Hall’s Marian Dewar Plaza with a lunch catered by Art-Is-In Bakery followed by a concert by singer Jeremy Fisher. Police chief and co-chair of the campaign Charles Bordeleau was the host at the announcement, as his co-chair, Danya Vered, was away on her honeymoon. Bordeleau spoke about the importance of United Way, and showed a video telling the

story of a young refugee who found himself living in the shelters at the YMCA/YWCA in Ottawa. “For over 30 years, I’ve been lucky to serve a vibrant and caring community,” Bordeleau said. “I’ve been exposed to unique experiences and I saw firsthand the need for support. I’ve been especially moved by the struggles young people face today.” He invited front-line workers from a variety of service agencies who received United Way Ottawa funding up on the stage in front of City Hall to unveil the campaign goal on large red umbrellas. “You don’t have to be in the frontlines to make a difference,” the police chief told attendees. “We all have the ability to be a hero in somebody’s

life.” Allen said many services are central in the downtown core or more urban neighbourhoods, but there are services that benefit across the city. He lives in Orléans himself, where neighbours may use a food bank locally, or some of the counselling services supported by United Way Ottawa. “(United Way services) are all throughout our community,” Allen said. “People who suffer a loss in their life – they’re affected as well. And that grief knows no boundaries.” United Way Ottawa is now accepting donations towards its goal of helping 57,200 people this year. The United Way accepts donations online at unitedwayottawa.ca or by phone at 613228-6767.

Group to advocate for sex offender support Erin McCracken erin.mccracken@metroland.com

SERVING KANATA NORTH

City Councillor, Kanata North

Volunteer-based support groups for high-risk sex offenders across Canada, including in Ottawa, now have a national umbrella organization to advocate on their behalf, says Susan Love, program co-ordinator of CoSA-Ottawa and a CoSA Canada interim board member. back into society each year. That forced the closure of CoSAs in Moncton, N.B., Halifax and Kingston. “Kingston is the prison capital of Canada with eight prisons, and (is) now without a CoSA, and that is not good,” Love said. CoSA-Halifax only started up in 2010, but “they were making a huge impact,” she said. The co-ordinator there had arranged with local police to help link sex offenders, who must abide by specific court-imposed conditions after incarceration, with local circle volunteers. “And I don’t know any other city in Canada that’s done that with the police,” Love said. CoSA-Ottawa, located on Catherine Street, lost $12,000 in annual federal funding. Despite that, its 40 volunteers are currently operating 12 circles. “That’s a lot actually, especially now that we’re down to one staff person,” said Love, who is the only paid staff member. A casual bookkeeper and part-time administrative assistant had to be let go last fall due to the cuts. CoSA-Ottawa has been trying to make up that shortfall, and generated about $10,000 through a spring gala. As well, the United Way has been instrumental in allowing the organization to keep its doors open. In July, it began contributing

$50,000 a year for three years to the Ottawa-based group. “But that’s really only half of our budget, so we’re still on the fundraising path,” Love said, adding the goal is to secure a long-term funding source. “It’s really hard to apply year after year,” she said. “So it’s wonderful that United Way identified the need.” CoSA-Ottawa now has $70,000 a year to work with, but the hope is to get it back up to $100,000, which would allow the hiring of an assistant to help implement volunteer training, screen volunteers and provide administrative expertise. In the meantime, CoSA’s nine volunteer board members have stepped up to fill that role. But an assistant would allow the organization to support even more people, as well as ensure those it is currently helping don’t commit more crimes. Without circles of support in place, registered sex offenders are

at a very high risk to reoffend. “I shudder to think,” Love said of what the loss of CoSA would mean for society. “There’s only one CoSA,” she said. “There’s only one organization that does this, that helps people who have been incarcerated for committing sexual offences stay on the straight and narrow, develop a meaningful life and avoid reoffending.” MEMBERS WANTED CoSA Canada is now looking for members. For the cost of $100 per organization or $25 per person per year, members can participate in the Oct. 27 AGM, vote for CoSA Canada’s first board of directors and vote on resolutions and bylaw changes. The organization is also seeking nominations for national directors. The deadline to apply for a membership is Oct. 2. For details and application forms, visit cosacanada.com.

SYRIAN REFUGEES- KANATA NORTH MEETING, Beaverbrook Library (Room A), 2500 Campeau, Oct 15, 7pm – Kanata residents have told me they want to help the refugees from Syria who are fleeing to Europe, just as they reached out to help the Vietnamese Boat People more than 30 years ago. Tonight I’ll be at the Mayor’s Forum on Syrian Refugees to get information on how we can help. Then on October 15th, I’ll host a meeting with representative from groups already seeking to help, along with any residents willing to join these groups, to provide strong community support for families that may come here. Last Sunday, I heard that several Syrian families with young children have been cleared to come to Canada. To support a family, you have to have $5,000 on hand for initial costs and raise an additional $8-10,000 within 10 months. We need community support to find housing and to assist the family in adjusting to a new life in Canada. Although I’m aware of 7 churches in our area with refugee committees and have invited them to the meeting, this event is for the broader community since we can all work together to support this humanitarian cause. My own church’s refugee committee has raised the first $5,000, but we need community support to be successful. Please come meet those who know how to sponsor a family and join the experienced refugee groups as community partners, to help make these new Canadians feel at home. Most Syrian refugees are well educated and are motivated to find a safe place for their families. Canada is home to people from many parts of the world, which has enriched our nation, and these new neighbours will do the same. If you cannot attend and wish to help, please send me an email and I’ll connect you with one of the groups. We also need volunteers who speak Arabic, so please let me know if you can help in that way. Together we can make a difference for many families who need our help. RAIL CONNECTIONS – Unlike Councillor Hubley, I feel that ensuring that an existing rail line is protected for possible future use is not ‘reckless’, but shows forward thinking. This line runs from Arnprior to Ottawa and is owned by the City of Ottawa from Arnprior to a point in the Greenbelt. From there to Ottawa South it is owned by CN. Since not everyone is going downtown, a route that connects across to Ottawa South will be needed as our population grows. It is not to replace our light rail network, but to provide an additional route to a different area in Ottawa. This route should be protected by being included in our Transportation Master Plan so that it will be available in the future.

The only volunteer-based organization of its kind in Canada that helps convicted high-risk sex offenders reintegrate into society after getting out of prison now has a national voice. Circles of Support and Accountability, also known as CoSA, already exist across the country, but faced with federal funding cuts and a need to secure long-term financial support, those advocating for the Circles have been working behind the scenes since 2010 to establish CoSA Canada. That effort became reality this spring, and the national body is set to hold its inaugural annual general meeting on Oct. 27, at which time a board of directors will be elected. “I think it’s really important to have a central organization that is advocating with, particularly, the federal government,” said Susan Love, program co-ordinator of CoSA-Ottawa. “We always felt that forming a national association was critical in the long-term sustainability of CoSA in Canada.” The umbrella organization will also spearhead the development of a start-up kit for organizations and cities looking to establish programs for sex offenders, the majority of whom are released into society after serving their time with little to no support. “Where does an organization, a city, go if they want to start up?” Love said. The goal is to eventually hire a national executive director, and perhaps have them work out of Ottawa, where they would have access to the federal government and can lobby for funding. “There needs to be a CoSA site in every major city,” said Love. “Just look at the research, that those involved in CoSA (reoffend) 70 to 80 per cent less (after incarceration).” The model has proven so successful it has been emulated in several countries, including the U.S. “We really are the only game in town that works specifically with this population.” The creation of a national organization couldn’t come at a better time, given the loss earlier this year of funding from the Correctional Service of Canada which was keeping several CoSAs afloat as they worked with hundreds of sex offenders settle

ONTARIO JUNIOR CITIZEN AWARDS 24 Kanata Kourier-Standard - Thursday, October 1, 2015

ADAM KVETON/METROLAND

Residents of Celtic Ridge and Windance crescents check out the current plan for the urban expansion area just north of their homes, at a meeting to discuss the preservation of a hedgerow on Sept. 23.

A view to a hedgerow Protection for line of trees discussed on edge of urban expansion Adam Kveton adam.kveton@metroland.com

South March residents are pushing for the preservation of a line of trees behind their houses to serve as a visual barrier between them and the urban expansion lands to the north. About 40 residents attended a meeting about the Kanata North Urban Expansion Area north of Old Carp Road as well as Celtic Ridge and Windance crescents, where some 3,000 residential units are expected to be built in the coming years. The meeting, held at St. John’s Anglican Church on Sept. 23, was a chance for engineer Murray Chown of Novatech Engineering and Metcalfe Realty representative Ted Fobert to present their plan to residents and take suggestions. With the urban expansion, residents’ backyards would look onto other houses, rather than the rural area, so preserving the hedgerow is an effort

to keep some of their current view intact. The plan presented to residents would provide lots north of the hedgerow with an extra six metres of backyard to accommodate the line of trees. While some trees would have to be removed for safety reasons, more would be planted as well, said Chown. “We want to protect as much of that hedgerow as we can,” he said, with Fobert adding “My client is prepared to accept the extra deep lot.” However residents were concerned over what guarantee they could get that the hedgerows would in fact be preserved, as each section of the line of trees would be owned by each new homeowner in the urban expansion land. Similarly, other residents were worried the new homeowners would erect fencing that blocks the view of the trees. Residents then brought up an idea from previous meetings for the hedgerow to be turned into a city-owned trail.

Kanata North Coun. Marianne Wilkinson, whose ward will eventually include the urban expansion lands, said the city does not want the responsibility of caring for the trees, while Chown said a trail would be little more than an opportunity for thieves and vandals to cause mischief, and that a required fence along the trail would not allow residents of Celtic Ridge and Windance crescents to access it anyway. As for new owners potentially cutting down the hedgerow trees, Fobert said a restrictive covenant could be put on the title of the land, saying the trees must be maintained. In addition to that, there is the city’s urban tree cutting bylaw. “The city could take legal action,” if the trees were cut down, said Wilkinson. However, residents wanted more assurances about whether or not a fence blocking the view of the trees could be built. “Really, you can’t make any kind of promise to us,” said one resident during the meeting. See MAJORITY, page 25

Majority of residents ask for chain link fence Continued from page 24

Adam Kveton/Metroland

A diagram shows the plan for six metres of extra space to be added onto lots in the urban expansion area to allow for the preservation of a hedgerow that runs west to east along the border of the expansion area.

Wilkinson said that while the requirement for a black chain link fence that would preserve the view could be put in the city’s community design plan, there could be no requirement to prevent a fence be-

ing put there. Asking for the attendees’ opinion, the majority of the residents at the meeting said they preferred that a chain link fence be required along the hedgerow. During the meeting, Chown pointed out the

current plan for the urban expansion lands, showing the tentative locations for parks and schools, with the majority of commercial uses slotted for the east side of March Road. However, Chown cautioned the plan will continue to evolve.

The third annual Mental Illness Caregivers Association summit takes place on Oct. 24 at Glen Cairn United Church at 140 Abbeyhill Dr. If you are a family member or a friend of someone who suffers from mental illness, this is your chance to connect with others who face the same challenges. This year’s theme, Families Building Partnerships, focuses on caregiver collaboration and engagement with both public and private institutions to bring about long-lasting solutions to the issues that affect families of those with a mental illness. Caregivers throughout eastern Ontario are invited to attend this free day-long event running from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. Pre-registration is required, however, and space is limited so if you plan to attend, please register before Oct. 9 at www.micaontario. com.

self strong and healthy? What will happen to my loved one when I’m gone?” The reality, says McIntyre, is that no single organization has

the answers and governments do not have the capacity to meet the demand. “We as caregivers must work with each other and with institutions, both public and private, in our communities to find practical solutions together,” he says. For example, family members from regions across eastern Ontario have been working closely with organizations such as Ottawa Public Health, the Canadian Agency for Drugs and Technology in Health, Canadian Mental Health Association, Canadian Public Health Association, Citizen Advocacy of Ottawa, Ontario Disability Support Program, Renfrew Mental Health Services and others in addressing some of the challenges being faced by caregivers. The caregiver is the front-line and often only touchstone, advocate, and support to help their loved one face the challenges of living with mental illness. See EVENT, page 28

Mission starts collecting turkeys for Thanksgiving James Kerr

The Ottawa mission is hoping the goodwill that surrounds the Thanksgiving holiday will include donations of turkeys for the mission’s annual Thanksgiving dinner. Once again, the Ottawa Mission is preparing for its

annual Thanksgiving turkey dinner by urging people to donate large frozen turkeys to help make this year’s dinner a success. The dinner, which served close to 2,800 people last year, aims to feed anyone without a home, food, or company on the holiday. “It takes between 80-90

turkeys to feed everyone who comes to our special Thanksgiving Dinner,” said Peter Tilly, executive director of the Ottawa Mission. volunteers

“Our kitchen volunteers and staff are cooking for about

a week before the special holiday event to ensure everyone who attends will have a delicious turkey dinner,” he said. “This special meal isn’t just for people staying in shelters; it’s for anyone hungry or alone in the community during the holidays.” Turkey donations can be

dropped off at the mission at 35 Waller Street. Donors can also arrange for their donations to be picked up by calling 613-234-1144, ext 248. The Thanksgiving Dinner will be served on Thanksgiving Monday, Oct. 12, 11:30 a.m. to 5 p.m. at the Ottawa Mission at 35 Waller St.

What Does De-Criminalization Mean? A good question. It is not a legal term. It is a political phrase which is at best ambiguous, and perhaps dangerous in so far as it invites assumptions which are not accurate. We have all heard the term used in the context of a debate currently in vogue with the coming federal election. If something, say some kind of plant material is prohibited, then possessing it is illegal. Possessing it will attract Criminal Sanctions. In Canada, those consequences are spelled out under the Controlled Drug and Substances Act. If it is no longer the case that possessing the plant substance is illegal, then the offence provision of the Controlled Drug and Substances Act will be repealed and the substance may be said to be legalized (though no doubt regulated like say, alcohol). But what do they mean by de-criminalize? I have heard various ideas, most of which suggest reducing the consequences of contravening the law. This is the danger: What are the consequences now, and how will they change upon decriminalization?

A weekly guide in legal matters

If you have a general legal question that you would like to have addressed send it via email to Legalmatters@compellingcounsel.com

Patrick Snelling received a BA from the University of Western Ontario in 1992 and his LLB from the University of British Columbia. He was admitted to the Law Society of British Columbia in 1996 and to the Law Society of Upper Canada in 2000. Patrick has extensive experience as a civil litigator. His primary areas of expertise are business disputes, personal injury and insurance matters.

From the point of view of sanctions, simple possession of cannabis carries minimal risk of jail, and very low risk of significant financial penalty. The real risks of being convicted of a cannabis related offence involve the recording of that conviction and the limitations one may experience as a result of that conviction being known. Those consequences may not change with de-criminalization. The fact that you received a “ticket-like” penalty for possession will not have any bearing on how foreign countries view you as a person they are willing to allow to enter their country. Nor will a prospective employer be compelled to view the conduct in question differently. I will not offer a view with respect to what, if any, changes should be made to the laws regarding cannabis. But I will say discussions around de-criminalization are, in my view irresponsible. It is currently illegal to possess cannabis. If it is legalized, then there is no ambiguity, people will know where they stand. In the murky world of de-criminalization, there is room for ambiguity, misunderstanding and unexpected real consequences. In the law, particularly the criminal law, clarity is very much the desired approach.

Triple murder suspect caught in West Carleton Jessica Cunha and Sherry Haaima jessica.cunha@metroland.com

The 57-year-old man who led police on an extensive manhunt through the Ottawa Valley before being arrested in West Carleton was charged with three counts of first degree murder on Sept. 23. Basil Borutski is charged in the deaths of three female victims: 36-year-old Anastasia Kuzyk of Wilno; Nathalie Warmerdam, 48, of Bonnechere Valley; and 66-year-old Carol Culleton of North Gower. “My heart goes to the families of the victims,” said West Carleton-March Coun. Eli El-Chantiry. “When something hap-

pens in a small community we all hurt a little bit more. We know the victim and we know the accused. This guy, two of his brothers lived not too far away from the Lighthouse when I owned the Lighthouse. It is a tragedy every way you look at it.” It was thought that Borutski may have been trying to reach his brother Art Borutski’s house on Kinburn Side Road. Calls and messages to the residence for comment were not answered. Borutski made an appearance in a Pembroke courtroom last Thursday to answer to the charges. See FIVE, page 33

Five-hour manhunt across the Valley ends in West Carleton Continued from page 31

The judge ordered him not to speak to a long list of family members and acquaintances, including relatives of the victims, according to The Canadian Press. Borutski was remanded into custody and will make his next appearance via video link Oct. 5. “Right now, my heart just goes out to the families ... all our brothers and sisters, our hearts go out to all the victims,” Borutski’s brother Will told The Canadian Press in an

interview. “We’re all just in disbelief. Right now the only ones we’re thinking about is the victims. The children, the families, the friends.” News of the killings, which happened Sept. 22 in three different areas in and around the Wilno area, gripped communities across the Valley and made national headlines. An extensive manhunt for the armed suspect began around 9 a.m. and ended with Borutski’s arrest around 2:30 p.m. near the Becks and Kinburn Side roads intersection. Police road blocks were

stationed at various points throughout West Carleton to maintain a perimeter around Becks and Kinburn roads where the command post was located and Stonecrest Elementary School was put on lockdown. “I was relieved and pleased by the quick response of the Ottawa police,” said El-Chantiry. “We worked together for the safety of our community. I was pleased to see this happen, the co-operation happen between the both agencies,” he added, speaking about the

Ontario Provincial Police and Ottawa Police Service. TIMELINE

Just before 9 a.m. on Sept. 22, officers of the Killaloe detachment of the Ontario Provincial Police responded to an incident on Szczipior Road in Wilno, Ont. about 131 kilometres west of West Carleton. Upon arrival officers found an adult female deceased. Information police received during the ongoing investigation led officers to a

second location, a residence on Foymount Road,‎ where a second adult female was located deceased.  At about 11:10 a.m., Bancroft OPP officers responded to a residence on Kamaniskeg Lake Road, locating a third deceased adult female. OPP emergency response, tactics and rescue and aviation units, along with the assistance of Ottawa police, searched for the armed male suspect. Several locations between Wilno and Ottawa were secured as a precautionary measure.

The accused, who has a history of violence and has spent time in jail, was known to the victims. He was arrested Tuesday afternoon in a wooded area at Becks and Kinburn Side roads in rural West Carleton without incident after a fivehour manhunt that involved the Ontario Provincial Police Emergency Response Team, Tactics and Rescue Unit and Aviation Services, with the assistance of the Ottawa Police Service.

Merge Conflict is the first community-based team in Ottawa and it’s pulled a number of mentors from the former All Saints team, as well as recruited alumni from other teams who are attending university in the city. “We’re not a rookie team;

tion and business part, and 30 per cent is building a robot. We’d love to have parents of the students join us as mentors. We think it’s a unique opportunity for them to share the experience with their child,” said George. “I’ve never experienced anything else that my child has been involved in that has that type of experience.” The team is searching for sponsors within the community to help cover some of the associated costs of competition fees and building materi-

als, as well as a facility where they can create their robot when building season begins. “We’re hoping we raise enough sponsorships to go to two competitions,” said George, which will cost around $9,000. Merge Conflict meets every Monday at the West District Library in Beaverbrook (2500 Campeau Dr. in Kanata) from 6:30 to 9:30 p.m. There is a fee of $175.

In sub-Saharan Africa, grandmothers are raising some15 million children and young people orphaned by AIDS. Here in the Ottawa/Gatineau region, 23 groups of Canadian grandmothers and “grand-others” support their efforts to make a better life and future for themselves and their families. Wanda Maurais, a resident of Barrhaven and a member of the Riverside Grannie says, “We raise funds and awareness, and advocate for policies and programs that will improve the situation for the grandmothers in Africa. This is meaningful volunteer work. But at the same time, belonging to a grandmother group means meeting like-minded people, making friends and having fun.” The grandmother groups channel the money they raise to grassroots organizations in Africa through the Stephen Lewis Foundation. The money provides grandmothers and the children in their care with seeds for gardens, income generation activities, bereavement counselling, HIV awareness training and testing, home visits, support groups, school fees, housing, and more. Local groups are collaborating in the GRAND MARKETPLACE, which will be held on November 14 at the Churchill Seniors’

Centre, 345 Richmond Rd (9:00-3:00). “It will be a grand bazar,” says Wanda Maurais with high-quality, gently used goods, beautiful crafts and homemade food at ridiculously low prices. Grandmother Moon will be there to read your tarot cards and you can get a delicious homemade lunch at the Sweet and Savoury Café. “The Grandmothers Campaign is based on respect and solidarity, not charity,” says Fatma Maged. “The courageous African grandmothers are the unsung heroes of Africa. They are the experts in what is needed and what to do.” HOW YOU CAN GET INVOLVED:

• Join a group. You don’t need to be a grandmother; grand-others are always welcome. Contact wd.maurais@sympatico.ca for information on groups near you. • Join us on November 14th at the GRAND Marketplace, Churchill Seniors’ Centre, 345 Richmond Rd (9:00-3:00). • Learn more about the grandmothers’ advocacy efforts at http://grandmothersadvocacy. org. • Donate directly to the Stephen Lewis Foundation and learn more about the Grandmothers to Grandmothers Campaign at www.grandmotherscampaign.org.

Six-year-old Quinn holds one of the large bull frogs he caught while playing in Fitzroy Park. His mother wants to organize a frog catching contest next summer, similar to events held in the U.S., to get more youth outdoors and active.

The art of catching frogs Jessica Cunha jessica.cunha@metroland.com

The young boy’s eyes move left and right as he scans the marshy area, tracking softly through the water and the grass, looking for the tell-tale signs of large amphibians. He moves quietly, softly, stepping lightly and not too quickly. Suddenly, his net shoots out, over, down. In a scooping motion he lifts it up. Inside sits a large bullfrog. He reaches in, holds it gently, and places it in a large orange bucket with a net on top. There is an art to catching frogs and six-year-old Quinn Vanneste has mastered it. “I’m a frog-catcher expert,” said Quinn. “All you have to do is look for the mouth and the big eyes. You have to walk quietly, softly, and if there’s snakes around you have to be super quiet.” The young Kanata boy spent his summer days playing in Fitzroy Park, following in the

footsteps of his mother Ann Marie Vanneste, a teacher at All Saints Catholic High School who spent her summers there as a little girl. “When I say catching frogs, we’re talking massive big bull frogs,” said Vanneste. “The passion he has – he has an art to it.” Quinn learned from his 18year-old brother R.J. how to catch the massive amphibians, including the most important advice: “You release them where you found them,” said Quinn. His enthusiasm rubbed off on others at the Park’s beach. It would take no more than 10 minutes of him catching frogs before a crowd would form around and others – of all ages – would be joining in the fun. “Everybody is engrossed in catching these frogs,” said Vanneste. “I’m really lucky, here’s my two kids, 12 years apart, playing together. Quinn was instructing other people on how to catch frogs. It attracted kids of all ages; it’s ageless. Even

the parents got involved.” Seeing her son being active outdoors, making friends and playing in the mud was the best part of the summer for Vanneste. “As the summer’s going on, what do we normally see? Kids on phones and iPads,” she said. “I’m out at Fitzroy Park with a kid who has a passion catching frogs.” The activity gave her an idea for next summer – to hold a frog catching contest to get more children and youth out and active in the community throughout the warm days. “Frog catching contests exist in the States; I want to try and do this next summer,” said Vanneste. “It’s just fun loving. At the end of the day you don’t hear enough of releasing your inner child.” And Quinn concurs. “With video games sometimes you lose and sometimes you win,” he said. “When you catch frogs, you always win. If you get frogs you don’t have to sit on the couch.”

Mizrahi returns with new Wellington West condo plan Height unchanged, design differs after OMB ruling Steph Willems steph.willems@metroland.com

The lengthy saga of Mizrahi Developments’ attempt to build a luxury condo development on Wellington Street West has entered its newest phase. After being ordered to come up with a new proposal by the Ontario Municipal Board following an appeal, the developer has floated a new design for the property on the northeast corner of Island Park and Wellington West. The design – still at the initial 12 storeys – was vetted at a community meeting held on Sept. 24. In its ruling, the OMB declared that Mizrahi could either come up with a nine-storey design (thus conforming to the area’s community design plan and the site’s “traditional mainstreet” zoning), or submit a truly iconic 12-storey design. Mizrahi has long declared

that the large expense of remediating the site’s contaminated soil requires a 12-storey building to make the investment worthwhile. The new design retains the same height and shape as the previous proposal, but adopts a new facade with recessed balconies and a green metal roof that hints at the city’s Parliamentary precinct. The upper setback has been moved lower by one floor, while the setback between the fourth and fifth floors remains the same. The uppermost portion of the roof slants inwards to create less massing when viewed from the ground. Not surprisingly, those who had earlier demanded the area’s community design plan be respected held firm to this stance in light of the newest proposal. Kitchissippi Coun. Jeff Leiper said no other issue in his ward generates as much feedback and comment to his office as this one. “A couple of people have

changed their minds (since the revamped proposal came out), one person said it’s much improved, but that’s one person out of dozens,” said Leiper. “We’re still at about a 70-30 split, where the majority don’t want to go beyond the ninestorey limit for the site, and others say it’s well-designed and offers the best hope for redeveloping that corner. To my understanding, the density of the building remains the same … They’ve reduced the height of the ground floor, so the building is slightly lower.” In May of last year, city council rejected the previous 12-storey proposal, deferring to the rules laid out in the CDP and treating the proposal as a cautionary example of what will befall developers who ask for too much. In past meetings, many residents were supportive of the outdoor furnishings that Mizrahi proposed to make the surrounding property friendlier

to the public. Those attributes remain in the new plan – a city parkette is shown on the west side of the building, with a landscaped public area and small playground. Floor plans for the development show a 500-square-metre retail or restaurant space on the ground floor. Leiper who sits on the city’s planning committee, said he won’t be recommending the proposal. “I will be urging staff to recommend against it and will be urging colleagues to not allow 12 storeys,” he said. “The new proposal is a big improvement and the architecture is good for a proposal like this, but I don’t think it’s so good that it warrants going above the nine storeys allows in the CDP.” City staff are expected to recommend a preferred direction to planning committee on Oct. 27. The committee’s vote, and subsequently council’s, will guide the city’s lawyers when they join representatives from Mizrahi at the Nov. 7 OMB meeting.

Laundry came with a ‘laundry’ list of procedures

N

othing interfered with the Monday wash. Or for that matter, the Tuesday ironing. Monday night, after the clothes hung on the line all day, they were brought into the kitchen stiff as boards. Wrinkles were smoothed out of Father’s overalls and the boys pants, socks matched and rolled into balls, and hand towels folded just right. Some of the laundry, like my sister Audrey’s and my blouses had a bath in a basin of water and starch before being hung on the line on Monday, and they too could stand up alone when dried out. Before we went to bed on Monday night, Mother would put the flat irons on the reservoir at the back of the stove, just to warm them. Because once breakfast was over, the fry pan washed and put away, the irons would be moved to the front of the Findlay Oval to get burning hot and ready for the ironing. Winter or summer, come Tuesday, the old kitchen stove had to be raging hot, or the irons would never be ready for the work ahead. The ironing board was nothing more than a plank wrapped with a few layers of well-worn flannelette sheets, and then placed between the backs of two kitchen chairs. Once everything was in place, Mother took a used vinegar bottle and filled it with water and tucked in a stopper with holes in it.   Everything that had been starched, and the flour bag tea towels, and pillow slips, Father’s Sunday shirt were

MARY COOK Memories well sprinkled with the vinegar bottle water and then rolled into tight sausages and stacked at one end of the kitchen table, close to the ironing board. All the time the flat irons on the stove would be getting hot, absorbing the heat from the raging fire inside. When I wasn’t away to the Northcote school, I loved to sit at one end of the table and watch Mother iron. There was a clamp affair with a smooth wood handle that fitted over the flat irons, and using a thumb press, Mother could change the irons when they cooled down and would no longer do the job. I thought that was very clever indeed. But the cleverest trick of all, I thought, was when Mother tested the iron to see if it was hot enough.

the flat irons allowed to cool down on the reservoir before being put on top of the warming closet on top of the stove waiting for the next Tuesday’s day of ironing.

Mother read in the Renfrew Mercury about a new type of iron that used gas to heat it. But she was having none of that. It was enough that she worried constantly about us either freezing to death in our beds on a cold winter’s night, or meeting our Maker from a fire in the winter when the Findlay Oval was plugged to the gunnies with blocks of wood to help keep us warm. She didn’t need a gas iron that could explode and blow us all to pieces, all in the name of moving up to a modern convenience. No siree, the old flat irons would do just fine!

She spit on the end of a finger and quickly tapped the bottom of the iron...if it sizzled, it was ready to use. If it didn’t, she moved over to another iron on the stove and tested it the same way. She did it so quickly, she never burned her finger, which I learned one day could happen if you didn’t pay attention. That day I was allowed to iron the tea towels. They, of course, were rolled up in tight little sausage shapes, and I laid one out flat on the ironing board, clamped the holder over an iron on the stove, spit on the end of my finger, and connected with the iron. Of course, I wasn’t quick enough, and I was sure I had fried the end of my finger!  I soon learned to barely touch the iron and to make sure

there was plenty of spit before contact. Ironing was a serious business back then. It took Mother the better part of Tuesday to complete the job. On a summer’s day, the heat in the kitchen was fierce, just to keep the irons hot on the Findlay Oval, and Mother’s face poured sweat. When it got too hot to bear, she would put the iron back on the stove, and go out to the grape arbour with a glass of water and sit for a spell...just long enough to cool down and rest her tired back. And then it was back to the job that consumed every Tuesday. When the last of the ironing was done, clean, starched blouses hung on wire hangers all around the kitchen. Father’s Sunday shirt would be on the back of a chair. The tea towels would be spread out to make sure they were perfectly dry before being put neatly in the drawer on the back-to-

In partnership with

Street mural to enliven concrete canvas in Hintonburg Garland Street retaining wall to gain colour following committee motion Steph Willems

steph.willems@metroland.com

Hintonburg, a community long known for its artistic prowess, is set to become a little more colourful. On Sept. 22, the city’s planning committee gave the green light to a planned mural that would adorn a concrete retaining wall that faces Garland Street, just south of Scott Street. Council voted in favour if it the following day. Following the submission of a report by Kitchissippi Coun. Jeff Leiper, the committee waived two bylaws in order to allow the mural, whose actual street address would is 3 Lowrey St. The installation is part of the city’s mural program, an initiative designed to enliven streetscapes throughout the urban area.

The mural, which will be privately funded, was requested by the property owner of 3 Lowrey in order to beautify the street, deter graffiti and promote the local arts scene. “Roger Senecal, an area realtor, suggested painting a mural (on the wall),” said Leiper. “It has been a couple months in the works because it requires a rezoning … I hooked him up with local artists and did a quick consultation with the Hintonburg Community Association’s arts committee.” Leiper, who called the mural concept “absolutely gorgeous,” said that with colder weather approaching, time was of the essence in requesting the rezoning. At committee, he asked his council colleagues to adopt the agenda item for the council meeting held the following

SENS EXTRA Canadian Tire Centre reveals new seating, food options brier.dodge@metroland.com

The Canadian Tire Centre will have about 500 fewer seats this Ottawa Senators hockey season, as the new Club Bell seats are now in place. The luxury section – with tickets that include valet parking, food and drink – start at $10,000 a seat for the whole season. Single game tickets aren’t available in the special section, which seats 472. The renovation changes the total capacity down to 18, 684 from 19,153. “We think this is going to be the best location to watch a game in the entire league,” said Ottawa Senators president Cyril Leeder. “It’s quite a significant change.” There are a few seating options, with larger, premium seats, and blocks called “loges”, which give customers a bar-style counter to keep food and drink on. Leeder said the ticket sales for the Club Bell section will be gearing “pretty well all to businesses and high net-worth individuals.” FOOD OPTIONS For fans who won’t be sitting in the new premium seeing, there are still upgrades to look forward to this season at the Canadian Tire Centre. For those who have dietary requirements or just enjoy eating healthy, Farm Boy will open the

Farm Boy Fresh zone. Options will include wraps, salads, soups and sushi in a menu created by Jamie Urie. The Fresh Zone will feature similar food to the pre-made food in the grocery store chain, including options for gluten-free and vegetarian diets. “That’s part of our mandate. Number one is being able to offer something for everybody,” Urie said. “We’ll have vegan soups, vegetarian chilli – and of course, options for the meat lover.” Favourite Smokes Poutinerie, which has been a popular stop during games, will also expand its presence to include a new Smoke’s Burritorie. It will have a few unique burritos on the menu to add another food option for Sens fans. There will also be more than quadruple the number of Tim Hortons coffee stands through the arena, as the chain has increased its presence at the facilty. “Tim Hortons has really made a big investment and we’ve been able to expand the distribution of coffee to 14 locations, up from three last year,” said Geoff Publow, the team’s vice-president of strategic development. “The lines have become a bit legendary.” There is also improved accessibility access with a counter that is more accommodating to fans who are in wheelchairs.

Above, new seats in the Bell Club will start at $10,000 each. That’s for a season ticket, per seat. The new section is aimed towards corporate buyers and “high net-worth individuals,” said Ottawa Senators president Cyril Leeder.

Right, Farm Boy is one of the new food additions for the Canadian Tire Centre in 2015. The takeout restaurant, located on the concourse accessible from the 200 and 300 level seats, will have vegetarian, vegan and gluten-free food options.

Anne Lewis hitting all the right notes John Curry

john.curry@metroland.com

Anne Lewis’ battle with cancer saw her lose her singing voice. A long time singer at local venues, her surgeries and treatments compromised her vocal chords. So she had to stop singing. “My voice was gone,” the Stittsville resident recalls now, a decade later. But in 2008 she discovered that her voice had returned, somewhat. She eventually started training her voice, spending hours trying to regain her voice’s strength and adding notes to improve her range. In 2013, she retired from the federal government and started to re-discover the local music scene, visiting various venues to get back in touch with local musicians. Eventually she started to perform again, two or three times a month since last October, mainly at private functions and at the Brookstreet

Hotel in Kanata. Now, the “Anne Lewis Quintet” is holding a concert at the National Arts Centre (NAC) on Saturday, Oct. 17 to celebrate the first anniversary of her return to singing. For Anne, it is an important performance because it is a “celebration of the joy of singing.” To be able to sing again after overcoming the challenges of cancer will make it a memorable evening, not only for her personally but also for those in the audience who will get to hear a program featuring about 18 songs. These will include some originals as well as some classic cover tunes. Indeed, the performance is going to be recorded as the basis for a live CD that will be produced. After this concert at the NAC, Anne will be continuing with her singing career, although perhaps only performing once a month. What’s important in all of this is that Anne has fought back from the devastation which her cancer forced on her singing voice.

She now has regained her selfconfidence in her voice and singing ability. Those who attend the NAC concert on Oct. 17 will get to see and hear her renewed self-confidence in herself as a singer. But Anne is no stranger to battling and overcoming adversity. She has been identified as legally blind since 1992 as a result of Stargardt disease, a hereditary retinal disorder, and cannot drive. In her earlier career when she was known as Anne Wagner, she did a lot of benefit concert work for the Canadian National Institute for the Blind because of her own sight challenges. This earlier career also saw her record two albums of contemporary pop music. She was also performing at various Ottawa area venues, singing not only blues and pop but also jazz. She even performed at jazz festivals in both Ottawa and Montreal. However, in the mid-1990’s, Anne’s marriage to her high school sweetheart ended and her music career had to take

a back seat to full time work in the public service so she could raise her family. Then, in 2004, she was diagnosed with cancer requiring surgeries, with her voice affected as a result. Her singing career seemed to be over for good as she had no singing voice. She wouldn’t even listen to music during the ensuing years. That is, until 2008 when her son’s marriage led to Anne singing a song as a gift for the newlyweds. But it was still another three years until 2011 before Anne caught herself singing a range of notes in the shower. Her singing voice seemed to be returning. This led to a couple of years of ongoing daily practice, trying to get her vocal strength and range back. She started performing a year ago and now she wants to celebrate it all which is why the upcoming concert at the NAC is being held. Now 57 years old, she feels that the challenges that she has faced have made her a singer who now understands phras-

ing, intonation and breathing and that a song’s lyrics and melody go hand in hand. Anne, who has lived in Stittsville since 2004, says that Stittsville is an incredible community. She works out at the Goulbourn Recreation Complex several times a week and has found the group there to be a welcoming, kind group of people. They frequently go for coffee together afterwards and she says that the group has been very supportive of her return to music. She also loves Stittsville because although legally blind and unable to drive, she can walk or take the bus to many locations such as the GRC or the bank. Anne acknowledges that there are many others who are battling cancer and she notes that cancer can affect a person’s self-confidence. She feels that it is important for people to get through the battle, perhaps helped by thoughts of a personal passion such as she did as she tried to stay focussed on her passion

for music and the return of her voice. Anne’s concert at the Fourth Stage at the NAC is taking place on Saturday, Oct. 17 at 7:30 p.m. Tickets at $25 each are available through the NAC box office.

French Catholic high school being readied in Stittsville John Curry

john.curry@metroland.com

Work continues on the new Ecole secondaire Catholique Paul Desmarais in Stittsville as its Feb. 2016 occupancy date comes closer. Because construction of the new $27.1 million two-storey school was not completed by the beginning of the current school year, students are temporarily being housed at Ecole secondaire Catholique Pierre-Savard in Barrhaven for the first semester of the school year. The new school is to be ready for student and staff occupancy in Feb. 2016 which will be the beginning of the second semester of the 2015-2016 school year. This new high schoo, being built to accommodate 759 students, will open with about 300 students from grades seven to nine. Addition grades will be added annually so that the school will house a full grade 7 to 12 compliment of students in the 2018-2019 school year. This new French Catholic high school is located at the corner of Abbott Street east of Iber Road and the future north/south arterial road

named Robert Grant Avenue which will eventually run through the Fernbank lands. There will be a roundabout at the intersection of Abbott Street and Robert Grant Avenue, with the school located on the northwest corner of the intersection. This new French Catholic high school will feature 17 classrooms, five science laboratories, five music and art rooms, three student support rooms, a stage, resource centre, cafeteria, chapel, triple gymnasium, exercise room and four change rooms. There will also be playing fields. The school has been named after businessman and philanthropist Paul Desmarais. Mr. Desmarais, a Sudbury-born financier who in 2011 was ranked as the fourth wealthiest person in Canada, died in 2013 at the age of 86. He was highly regarded for his integrity and his commitment to a united Canada. Mr. Desmarais was made an Officer of the order of Canada in 1978 and became a Member of the Queen’s Privy Council for Canada in 1992. He received the Grand Cross of the National Order of the Legion of Honour in 2007. In his

lifetime, he also received numerous honourary degrees from universities such as St. Francis Xavier University, McMaster University, Concordia University, McGill University, Wilfrid Laurier University, Laval University and the University of Toronto. Mr. Desmarais’ Power Corporation of Canada was involved in the pulp and paper industry and controlled financial firms like Great-West Life and Investors Group. The new school has as its elementary feeder schools Saint Jean-Paul II in Stittsville, Elisabeth Bruyere (excluding Bells Corners), J-L Couroux, Roger Saint Denis (excluding Crystal Beach) in Kanata and Saint Remi. This new school is needed because College Catholique Franco Ouest in Bells Corners has reached maximum capacity including portables and cannot handle any more student enrolment. The official sod turning ceremony for this new French Catholic high school in Stittsville was held on Friday, Nov. 7, 2014. McDonald Bros. Construction Inc. is the general contractor for this new French Catholic high school.

Ottawa children’s dreams take flight on Disney trip Alex Robinson alex.robinson@metroland.com

When your heart is in your dreams, no request is too extreme. Those words could not be truer for 104 children from the Ottawa area on Sept. 23 who were taken on a whirlwind trip to Disney World in Orlando, Fla. The Ottawa chapter of charity Dreams Take Flight organized the day, raising money throughout the year so that the children would not have to pay a cent for their trip. The charity asked organizations that work with socially, mentally, and physically challenged youth to select children to go. Some of the children have difficult situations at home. Some have been diagnosed with life-changing illnesses and some are the siblings of children with serious conditions. The kids assembled in a large hangar near Ottawa’s airport at 4 a.m. before doors swung open to reveal the plane that would take them to Florida. After the excited little VIPs said goodbye to their parents and scampered onto the plane, they were told the engines would not start. Luckily, the flight crew had brought plenty of magic pixie dust to get

the plane off the ground. Most of the children had never even been on a plane before. “I love the clouds,” said a grinning Hunter, a 12-yearold from Nepean, who gazed out the window as the plane headed towards Florida early that morning. “I didn’t sleep last night because I thought I was going to miss it. It’s basically a dream come true.” Once they landed, a short bus trip and ferry ride brought them to the gates of Disney World. A small army of volunteers ushered the children around the park in groups, darting around the magic kingdom. A group of seven little boys beamed excitedly as they eagerly hugged Mickey Mouse. The same group of boys later screamed as they whipped around on Space Mountain. “It was fun, but I felt like I was going to puke my guts out,” Dominic, 8, excitedly said. The kids got to go on as many rides as they could pack in and meet Disney characters from old and new movies. The day was capped off with a visit to the gift store, where the children each got to choose a souvenir to take home. Ahmad, 10, clutched his stuffed Pluto as the kids were

A group of girls screams as they ride Thunder Mountain Railroad rollercoaster in Disney World on Sept. 23. rounded up and counted before getting back on the buses at the end of the day. Ahmad’s family fled Syria in 2010 and has been adjusting to Canadian life since. Back in the spring, Ahmad came home from school

one day and eagerly told his mother about his classmates’ trips to Disney World during March break and said he would like to go one day. He got his wish. When asked what his favourite part of the day was,

the shy 10-year-old said meeting Mickey Mouse. “Mickey was funny,” he said. For Hunter, Space Mountain was the highlight. “It’s all in the dark. You’re going and then you take a

sharp turn and you go down and then you go up,” he said. While they were split on what their favourite parts of the day were, the kids all agreed this was a day they would remember forever.

Liam’s Army gathering Dravet Walk recruits

Registration for the fourthannual Dravet Walk for the Kids is underway and organizer Mandy McKnight is hoping to equal 2014’s record-setting event. Last year the event saw more than 400 participants come to Constance Bay from as far away as Mississauga, and others from Orléans, Manotick and across the city. Almost half of the walkers registered to be part of Liam’s Army, led by McKnight’s son Liam who has Dravet syndrome, a rare form of epilepsy that causes dozens of seizures per day. The event raised more than $50,000 for epilepsy and Dravet syndrome research. The goal this year is to hit the same marks at the Saturday, Oct. 3 event. “The three previous walks, we’ve raised over $120,000 for research,” said McKnight. “It’s really great because epilepsy is so underfunded, there’s not a lot of research going on. As a parent I feel like it’s up to us to champion the cause and try to get the word out there and try to raise awareness. “Our goal this year is $50,000. We are hoping to get over 400 people to come out

ment Liam’s seizures are more under control and the Grade 2 student is doing well, said McKnight. Funds from the event support Dravet.ca to raise awareness about Dravet syndrome, provide support and information for patients and their families, and fund research for improvements in medical diagnosis and better treatment options. “It’s amazing the way all the families come together to help and the community has been incredible. It really is an amazing experience,” said McKnight. “A lot of these kids live in communities throughout the city. It’s a great way to come out and support the kids. It’s a great day, it’s just a huge celebration.” There will be bouncy castles, face painting, a fundraising barbecue and bake sale, a raffle and a silent auction at the event. Local businesses or people who want to contribute to the silent auction are asked to email dravetwalkottawa@ live.ca. Anyone who wants to bring items to the bake sale is asked to do so the day of the event. The Dravet Walk for the Kids will take place Oct. 3 at the Constance Bay Community Centre, 262 Len Purcell Dr. Registration begins at 10 a.m. with the walk starting at 11 a.m. Registration fees are $25 for adults, $20 for youth, $15 for children, and free for anyone who has epilepsy.

this year. So far we have 11 teams registered.” Those who don’t have a team can register to be part of Liam’s Army and anyone who can’t attend is encouraged to register as a virtual walker. “They can sign up their child and their family,” said McKnight. “I’ve had people sign up as virtual walkers and they’ll walk wherever they are.” The Dravet Walk for the Kids, which features a threekilometre family walk, is the only event of its type in Ottawa. McKnight began the event four years ago to raise funds for epilepsy research after her son Liam was diagnosed with Dravet syndrome. “I never really had a specific goal in mind; it was always just (about) raising awareness, meeting other families,” said McKnight. “When you have a child who has a seizure disorder life can be pretty isolating, you’re home a lot. Seizures do really dictate your day-to-day lives. Meeting other families and making those connections is very important.” The McKnight family made headlines last year across the country for their novel way of administering medicinal marijuana to treat Liam’s seizures. They used oil in order to control dosage rather than having the six-year-old smoke it, which was considered illegal until this year when the Supreme Court ruled that forcing people to smoke medicinal weed was unconstitutional. Since they began the treat-

Scaring is Caring at Saunders Farm At 8 p.m., there will be a performance of Saunders Farm’s new Ghost Town Stage Show “Straight Outta Munster.” The Youth Services Bureau has been helping youth and their families access services and programs that they need for more than 50 years. This includes several key areas such as youth mental health, community services, youth justice, youth engagement and youth employment.

Saunders Farm is just about to welcome its one millionth visitor to its annual Haunting Season. Its mission is to create a space that provides fun, food and memories for everyone. Saunders Farm has employed 100’s of youth over the past years. For more information about Saunders Farm, please check out the website at www.SaundersFarm.com or the website www.FrightFest.ca or call 613-838-5440.

R0013450030_1001

The scaring continues in the Haunting Season at Saunders Farm at Munster this weekend but this Friday, Oct. 2 is special because that’s when Saunders Farm is hosting its fourth annual “Scaring is Caring” fundraiser in support of the Youth Services Bureau of Ottawa and its mental health initiatives. This “Scaring is Caring” fundraiser is held annually in memory of Jamie Hubley, a Kanata youth who died as a result of bullying and lack of acceptance. Jamie worked at Saunders Farm during two Haunting Seasons, playing the roles of various characters on the Haunted Hayride. The “Scaring is Caring” fundraiser was founded to celebrate Jamie’s life and to emphasize his message of acceptance. The fundraiser is also meant to raise not only money but also awareness to support mental health advisory services in the community. This “Scaring is Caring” fundraiser will run this Friday, Oct. 2 from 6 p.m. to 10 p.m. at Saunders Farm, with five dollars from each admission being donated to the Youth Services Bureau of Ottawa and its youth mental health initiatives. Collaborating in support of this fundraiser are the Hubley family, the Youth Services Bureau of Canada, the Holy Trinity High School jazz band, Saunders Farm staff and family and friends of Jamie Hubley. It all starts at 6 p.m. when Saunders Farm’s Fright Fest will open for the evening. At 6:30 p.m., there will be a ceremony involving the Saunders family and guests. It will include a live performance on the Farm’s Ghost Town Stage featuring the Holy Trinity School’s jazz band and other performers. At 7 p.m., the Scar-y-Okee in the Tipsy Tombstone Tavern will begin, running through to 9:30 p.m.

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!

ARIES – Mar 21/Apr 20 You are extra motivated to explore new opportunities this week, Aries. Bring along a trusted advisor who can steer you in the right direction if you have questions. TAURUS – Apr 21/May 21 It is very important to find balance, Taurus. Many activities are coming up, and you have to figure out a way to juggle them all. This will take some creativity. GEMINI – May 22/Jun 21 Gemini, avoid overindulging this week. Even though it may seem like you can never get enough, over time something special may lose its spark. Practice moderation, instead. CANCER – Jun 22/Jul 22 Cancer, everything will work out the way it should if you keep a smile on your face this week and continue with the status quo. Soon you can shake things up. LEO – Jul 23/Aug 23 Leo, you may be compelled to get more involved in your community or a volunteer project this week. A desire to give something back propels your actions. VIRGO – Aug 24/Sept 22 You have a soft spot for underdogs this week, Virgo. Anyone who seems to be struggling will have your attention, and you will offer to lend a hand.

LIBRA – Sept 23/Oct 23 Libra, this week presents opportunities to help people or even animals in need. If ever there was a time to take up a cause, now is it. You have plenty of extra time to lend a hand. SCORPIO – Oct 24/Nov 22 Scorpio, you may find yourself waking up extra early just to accomplish everything you need to get done. Try not to burn the candle at both ends for too long. SAGITTARIUS – Nov 23/Dec 21 Sagittarius, you will enjoy downtime much more after you complete an important task and feel a sense of accomplishment. Rest may still be a few days away, so be patient. CAPRICORN – Dec 22/Jan 20 Capricorn, things may be a little confusing of late, but you will find a clear path to get things done. Ask a friend or colleague to lend a helping hand if things get too hectic. AQUARIUS – Jan 21/Feb 18 Relationships are very important this week, Aquarius. Nurture both the personal and professional relationships that you want to grow, and you will be happy you did. PISCES – Feb 19/Mar 20 Pisces, the earlier half of the week may be hectic, but things will return to an even keel as the days press on. 1001
