Kanata mom co-founds Ottawa art in fashion show Adam Kveton

adam.kveton@metroland.com

When you first see Glen Cairn resident Kym Brown, she says people generally make a few assumptions.

With classic tattoos down both her arms, her naturally grey hair shaved down to nothing on the side of her head, and likely wearing a fascinator of her own design – made to simultane-

ously creep out and intrigue – Brown says she generally falls into a few categories for people. “’Oh you must be a makeup artist or you must be a hairdresser or you must be (some other kind of) artist,’” she said in an interview in her home workshop.

So it doesn’t surprise people when she tells them she is a fashion designer.

But you shouldn’t have to

be an artist or work in haute couture to turn heads with some less-than-conservative fashion choices, she said.

With her work, Brown tries to make people aware they have a choice. People don’t have to blend into the crowd with their clothing, but can choose to wear their interests, their passion or their art right on them.

Math in English, more French sooner for early French immersion brier.dodge@metroland.com

The public school board will evaluate the way French immersion is run for kindergarten and primary early French immersion programs.

The school board tabled a report from staff on proposed changes at the Sept. 29 meeting.

The changes include: •Two-year kindergarten program shift to 50 per cent English, 50 per cent French •Introduction of 60 minutes daily of English (as a language and subject) in Grade 1 early French Immersion •Grades 1 to 3 students in EFI would study math in English instead of French Currently, junior kindergarten students spend 20 minutes a day in French in EFI, and 150 minutes of their day in French (50 per cent) starting in senior kindergarden.

Grade 1 shifts to 100 per cent of instructional time in French, with 80 per cent in French in Grades 2 and 3. English as a language subject is currently introduced in Grade 2.

The report on the changes said that the lack of English in Grade 1 means that early intervention opportunities for students with learning difficulties are sometimes missed.

In term of math studies, students currently start studying math in English in Grade 4, so the report proposes it makes more sense to have math in English in Grades 1 through 3 as well.

holder meeting, and a series of consultation meetings in dual track (French and English) schools in the district.

School consultations will take place on Oct. 13 at W.O. Mitchell Elementary School and Oct. 19 at Fallingbrook Com-

The board wants to implement the changes for Sept. 2016, so the goal is to have consultation done prior to kindergarten registration in Jan. 2016.

Consultation on the changes will be done through electronic feedback, stake-

munity Elementary School. There will also be opportunities for school councils to give input.

Recommendations will be presented to the English public board on Nov. 24.

Animal welfare executive director faces criminal charges Ashley Kulp

akulp@perfprint.ca

The executive director of Lanark Animal Welfare Society is up on criminal charges following an August collision she was involved in while operating a vehicle belonging to the organization.

According to documents obtained from the Ontario Court of Justice, Kanata resident Rhonda Fleming is charged with failing to stop or remain at the scene of an accident and obstructing a police officer, as well as a Highway Traffic Act violation for driving a motor vehicle without an interlock device.

The charges stem from an Aug. 24 incident in Smiths Falls, where, according to a Smiths Falls Police report, Fleming hit an off duty police officer’s vehicle in the parking lot of a local restaurant.

“The female was driving a local

business vehicle of her own and left the scene of the accident,” the report stated. “The officer followed the female to another business where she abandoned the vehicle and fled on foot.”

Acting LAWS board president Kathy Hoyland confirmed Fleming was driving a van belonging to the organization on the day in question, but declined to comment on the charges she is facing or whether Fleming is currently on sick leave from her position with LAWS. “LAWS did own the vehicle,” Hoyland stated. “I have no comment on that (sick leave). She (Fleming) is an employee and as the board hired her and I’m the president, I’m in the position of her boss,” she said.

Fleming’s first court appearance will be Monday, Oct. 19 at 9 a.m. at the Perth courthouse.

None of these charges have been proven in court.

Talks have resumed between the province, the Ontario Public School Boards Association, and the last teachersâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; union without a contract.

On Sept. 29, the Elementary Teachersâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; Federation of Ontario (ETFO) released a statement indicating that it was returning to the bargaining table on Oct. 6 in the hope of reaching a new collective agreement. The announcement came on the same day that ETFO filed an Unfair Labour Practice Complaint against the government and OPSBA on the grounds of failing to bargain in good faith. â&#x20AC;&#x153;ETFO has been ready to return to the table for two weeks to bargain a fair and reasonable agreement specific to ETFO members,â&#x20AC;? stated ETFO president Sam Hammond on the evening of Sept. 29. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We accept this invitation and we look to the (Education) Minister to confirm where and when negotiations will resume.â&#x20AC;?

Contract talks broke down on Sept.

11 after ETFO claimed the province and OPSBA walked away from the table after making an initial offer.

Education Minister Liz Sandals later claimed that the offer presented to ETFO mirrored the offers accepted by the other teachers unions, which included a modest raise in pay, an extra professional development day, and changes to sick days.

Since then, teachers at Ontarioâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s public elementary schools ramped up their work-to-rule campaign to a new phase, staging their first â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Wynne Wednesdayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; on Sept. 30. During that protest, teachers adorned in union colours staged demonstrations before and after classes at their respective schools.

Radio ads purchased by ETFO speak of the need for a different kind of provincial support, given that elementary students have different needs than those in high school. This â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;one-size-doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t-fit-allâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; message is in line with the criticisms made by Hammond following the Sept. 11 impasse.

Though administrative duties were reduced, including the cancellation of field trips and most interactions with parents, classes have remained uninterrupted so far this year. However, the threat of rotating strikes has been made, and could kick off at any time â&#x20AC;&#x201C; especially if the looming talks fail to produce an agreement.

The Ottawa-Carleton District School Board has since posted information regarding Wynne Wednesdays onto its website.

613-596-5353

â&#x20AC;&#x153;There may be protests or picket lines at elementary school sites and administration buildings on Wednesdays as part of â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Wynne Wednesdays,â&#x20AC;&#x2122;â&#x20AC;? states the OCDSB. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Protests or picket lines should not adversely affect secondary studentsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; access to secondary schools. However, secondary school staff and students at Longfields-Davidson Heights and Earl of March may anticipate delays.â&#x20AC;?

The board also posted words of caution about crossing a protest or picket line, including advice on keeping emotions or biases in check to ensure safety.

W

hat a long election campaign.

But we’re finally in the home stretch. If you’re like me you’ve been watching daily micro-polling like a baseball fan watches sports stats or an investment adviser watches stocks.

So closely do I follow issues and polls that I’m the constituent that candidates love to hate.

Not to mention I work from home.

The doorbell rings, a rap at the door and I bolt up the stairs from my home office, excited to see another human face. I’m giddy before I even open the door.

Then I realise it’s a candidate! I hug him or her, (OK, I resist the urge to hug) and then hammer the candidate

100 houses in my neighbourhood, an unfortunate candidate likely found over-enthusiastic me, followed by an even more enthusiastic work-from-home neighbour willing to answer the door.

We may have misrepresented the ’hood.

After the candidate’s visit, I texted my equally intellectual, under-socialized neighbour: “Did the candidate come?

What did you ask?”

His response made me realize my own shortcomings: “We talked about ISIS, refugees, daycare, income splitting, childcare, science, security, political divisiveness.”

I wondered if the candidate took him for a crazy guy that works in his basement and ponders world affairs, or an

educated and wellgroomed voter.

“If the only doors that got answered in our neighborhood today were mine and yours, the candidates may wish they’d never come,” I wrote.

But maybe candidates love us for being engaged, (and desperately in need of human contact), as much as their campaign managers hate us for keeping them on the doorstep for an exorbitant amount of time.

This election campaign, I’ve had the benefit of doing something unique – interviewing, albeit by phone, candidates across a wide variety of ridings in Atlantic Canada and the Prairies, of all political stripes.

Regardless of what you think of campaigns or the party platforms, you’ve got to give it to the candidates. Many have halted their businesses, given up jobs or taken leave without pay, all in the name of democracy.

You could be cynical and suggest that they’re only in it to win it, but most of them won’t win and many don’t even have a chance, and a few of them know it. Yet they’re out their door knocking, riding buses in the rain, attending community events, listening to the concerns of voters. If all

elected individuals could be as active as MPs as they are during campaigns, Canadians may actually start to feel like they have a voice in political affairs.

I used to think all MPs were cut from a certain cloth. But it’s not true. People have many motivations for getting into politics – and in the beginning, for rookie candidates – it’s often to really serve the public in some way.

There are always long-term politicians that lose the silver lining, become overly partisan and egotistical, but when you dig deep, most individuals are motivated by something that transcends their own egos.

They are motivated to make a difference.

Candidates come from all backgrounds. I’ve interviewed lawyers, activists and business people, which we seem to think make up the pack. But there is more diversity among candidates than you think.

One candidate I spoke to is an oncologist. Another one played in a symphony for half a decade. There are farmers and teachers, international aid workers, and one guy who spent 80 days in jail for stealing a ballot box and throwing it into the harbour.

There are failed politicians, those in remission from cancer, individuals who admit to living below the poverty line because

of lack of jobs in a particular area. And they’re all out there, campaigning selflessly, listening to people, debating the issues, hoping they can have the honour of sitting in the House of Commons as our representatives.

When I see the quality of candidates across the country, it makes me question our obsession with the party leaders. The leaders are the top salespeople for their teams, for sure.

But at the end of the day, you have to be comfortable that the person in your local riding will go to bat for you. It’s one of the reasons I always have such a hard time deciding for whom to vote. It certainly helps when the candidate comes to the door. This is democracy, people power, at its best.

In fairness to the candidates, they can’t make it to every door, although judging by their running shoes, they try.

But you can get to the only poll that matters. If you need a ride, call a candidate. They’ll get you there. Advance polls are Thanksgiving weekend.

Election day is Monday, Oct. 19.

Your candidates may have lost their jobs to take part in democracy. All you have to do is take a few minutes to tick a box. So grab a Timmies and go do it!

To the editor,

The death of three young children and their grandfather by an alleged drunk driver in a horrific road crash in Vaughan, Ont. on Sept. 28 will renew the call by many to reduce the criminal limit for drunk driving to 0.05 blood alcohol level (BAC) from the current 0.08 level.

Canada set the current criminal limit at 0.08 for impaired driving over 35 years ago.

An internal federal government study in 2010 warns that lowering the bar for drunk driving convictions could overwhelm the justice system.

The Justice Department says that courts, police services, and jails could be pushed to the breaking point if the federal government ever lowered the criminal drunk-driving threshold.

Canada’s practice of not using criminal law for drivers under 0.08 is in line with the approaches taken in other countries. Canada’s impaired driving laws are among the strictest in the Western world.

Lowering the criminal limit would nullify many effective countermeasures now in place. If criminal charges were to be laid below the current threshold, that many more, if not all, would be challenged.

A significant concern and risk in reducing the criminal limit below a point most Canadians would consider unreasonable is that it would encourage contempt, disrespect, and disdain for the law.

Unquestionably, this would weaken the resolve of the criminal justice system - the police and courts – to enforce the law. Tinkering with this criminal limit could well open the doors to a barrage of defence challenges!

Frivolous criminalization will not protect the public. There is absolutely no evidence that charging low-BAC (0.05) drivers under the Criminal Code would prevent more deaths and injuries than measures now in place in provincial and territorial regulations. When it comes to dealing with impaired driving, the current administrative and criminal sanctions in place in Canada provide a well thought-out mix of effectiveness, efficiency and severity. Let’s keep it that way!

What is needed is to increase the perception of apprehension, and to improve the system’s efficiency and effectiveness in dealing with impaired driving offenders.

Hospital serves up poor food choices 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, sugar-laden drinks and flavoured yogurts – and the total absence of whole grain products and plain yogurt, the scarcity/tiny por-

tions 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 duty to patients and the general public, all of whom are potential patients.

Until the QCH replaces its junk foods with nutritious food, I will not contribute to the QCH. Irma Cohen Ottawa

OC Transpo shouldn’t be a surprise to anyone To the editor,

Re: Kanata Kourier-Standard Editorial, Sept. 24.

The Kourier-Standard editorial focuses on two important reasons for the expected OC Transpo deficit of $11.5 million for 2015.

The failure to budget for the end of the warranty period for new buses is inexplicable. Certainly, it is difficult to believe that people who have been in charge of OC Transpo budgeting processes for many years would have “forgotten” that this cost factor would not be part of the 2015 budget.

If they did forget, what penalties should they face for such an outstanding example of poor performance? Moreover, the astounding number of breakdowns recently is not merely an inconvenience for passengers, but also a potential safety issue; is maintenance being delayed due to the failure to cost the function properly?

Where were the mayor and council when the OC Transpo budget was approved?

The flat-lining of ridership should come as no surprise to anyone who has paid the slightest attention to

the matter over the years.

When the LRT initially became a serious public issue several years ago, attention was drawn to the fact that the expected ridership and the proposed routes were based on demographic projections that were considered to be out of date.

However, OC Transpo officials insisted on using them to justify decisions already taken. Do you believe they did it on their own?

Can one be surprised that ridership is not growing as “expected”?

The real question is: expected by whom?

Did the mayor and council direct OC Transpo to ignore the new projections, and do they still refuse to take a reality test?

In addition to the two factors that appeared in the article, another reason for the deficit can be attributed to a revenue shortfall caused by failure to pay fares.

In Ottawa, free riders need not even bother to jump turnstiles. Despite signs that tell riders to board using the front door that unless they have Presto cards, it is clear that many who board using rear doors do not have them – and possibly don’t have any other proof of

payment.

Moreover, some bus drivers don’t seem to care even if people board using the front door without proof of payment. Recently, for example, someone boarding a bus at Eagleson, probably “transferring” from the 96, was unable to provide the driver with a transfer; furthermore, this person didn’t seem to have any cash either.

Fortunately, the good-hearted driver let this person board anyway. How many times have paying passengers seen this occur? Does this sort of behavior incentivize passengers to pay fares, or does it do just the opposite?

What do the mayor and council propose to do about free riders?

My crystal ball tells me that we can look forward to higher transit fares, higher taxes to pay for an underutilized LRT transit system, and higher fees to pay for everything else that could have been avoided by politicians who took their roles seriously and made decisions that reflected the longer-term well-being of the residents, taxpayers, and voters of Ottawa.

Saying goodbye to a friend The city lost an icon on Oct. 1.

Max Keeping was a reporter, a news anchor and he came into thousands of homes every weeknight across Ottawa and eastern Ontario on CJOH, later CTV Ottawa.

But he was more than that.

He could have lived a 9-to-5 life and headed home after the cameras shut down at the end of each newscast. But he was more than willing to do much more.

Keeping knew he was considered a friend to his viewers.

He could have capitalized on that by appearing in commercial advertisements but he made the choice to put full his effort into helping those less fortunate. Keeping backed charities across the region â&#x20AC;&#x201C; notably CHEO â&#x20AC;&#x201C; encouraging viewers to help too, all in that familiar, calm tone of voice.

Who could fail to respond when a friend asked for help?

So Keeping was iconic. But he was more because he was not just a celebrity seeking more fame and more notoriety. He saw that kind of opportunity

existed but made a conscious decision to take a pass because kids, seniors and so many others might benefit from his connection with TV viewers.

An example that touched our reporting staff: one cold winterâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s night in 2003, Keeping drove straight from his newscast to the old bingo hall on Merivale Road, arriving minutes after 7 p.m. simply because heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d been asked to help out. He arrived to call out the final bingo numbers as one lucky player won a new car.

It was all for charity of course.

And the connection this city felt with Keeping was on display for all. As he walked in the room and gave his familiar wave, he received a standing ovation from the packed house.

He was good for the city and the city knew it. He lived life to the max.

The greatest tribute anyone can pay to Keepingâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s lifelong support of charities is to make sure the efforts continue. If you were inspired by Keeping and his mantra: do something to make a difference in anotherâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s life.

Max, you will be missed.

Toronto will just have to do

T

his is hard. But we might as well own up to it. A number of us in Ottawa â&#x20AC;&#x201D; probably quite a large number â&#x20AC;&#x201D; are cheering for a Toronto sports team.

No, of course itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not the Argonauts. And itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s certainly not the Maple Leafs, except for a few who were cursed from birth with that affliction.

No, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s the Blue Jays, who are in the playoffs for the first time in 22 years, capturing the imagination of long-suffering local baseball fans.

All the indicators are present: In a recent months Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve been at Ottawa dinner parties where people were checking the score between courses.

Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve been at cottages where people with smart phones prowled the decks and docks hoping for a signal

a Toronto team by thinking of it as cheering for a Canadian team. That will be easier once the American nationalism ramps up during the playoffs.

And it could be an added incentive that the Blue Jaysâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; catcher, Russell Martin, spent part of his boyhood in Chelsea. Much more should be made of this.

The thing is, people need to have someone to cheer for, particularly in these gloomy times, and if the nearest suitable object happens to be a team from Toronto, well, you take what you can get. No one gets hurt, after all.

There is certainly precedent for this. In fact, it is all around us in the federal election. Few people are ever completely satisfied with the candidate or party they vote for. But they cheer for someone anyway.

LETTER

Public unaware of province’s changes to medical system To the editor,

Doctors are growing increasingly frustrated with the government of Ontario. We have been without a contract for over a year.

The government is making unilateral cuts to health care.

What I find concerning is that they are changing health care without the input of patients or physicians.

Doctors recognize that public funding for health care in Ontario is limited. In 2012, recognizing the financial difficulties of the province, Ontario’s doctors agreed to a pay cut.

In 2015, the government has imposed a cap on the physician services budget. This cap is unfair to Ontario’s doctors and, more importantly, its patients. Patient illnesses are neither controlled by doctors

nor by the government.

The government is essentially punishing doctors if the needs of the people of Ontario exceed an arbitrary cap on funding. Imagine if snow-clearing services were expected to work for free after its budget was exceeded. As an essential service, we cannot simply stop working. We put our patients first.

Even more concerning are the reforms to family medicine that are coming. The Ministry of Health and Long Term Care Primary Health Care advisory committee has recommended that patients be assigned a physician based on their home address, like the public school system.

Unfortunately, this report raises many questions that remain unanswered. Will you be able to keep the doctor you know and trust? Doctors do

not know how many more patients we will be expected to take on.

They also propose increased administration, which will strain the finances of the province. How much more of our hard-earned tax dollars will go to administration rather than patient care?

Physicians have not been consulted and I do not believe the public is aware of these upcoming changes.

While there may be some who welcome these reforms, I feel they are being passed without the knowledge of the general public. I hope that those reading this take action and contact their MPP. The future of health care in Ontario may depend on it.

Allan Hubley Positive Change for Kanata South

City Councillor Kanata South Week in Review Thank you to all who came out last Friday to Saunders Farm for the 5th Annual Scaring is Caring event in support of the Youth Services Bureau. $5 from each ticket sold will go to support youth mental health initiatives. A special thank you to the Saunders family for hosting, Councillor Shad Qadri for his support of this event by sponsoring a bus from Stittsville and to Cindy Cutts from Proud to be Me for helping to organize and fill the buses!

Thank you to St. Paul’s Church for inviting me to their silent auction and spaghetti dinner last weekend in support of the Ruddy-Shenkman Hospice. This dedicated group of volunteers raised $6728 with this event!

Thank you to all who have provided comments on our budget consultation link at www.councillorallanhubley.ca Hydro One tree cutting behind Bridlewood Elementary School The trees and brush being removed in Bridlewood along the hydro corridor is being done by Hydro One and was conducted as part of their transmission line maintenance program. Unfortunately, the work took place on Hydro One’s easement and was deemed necessary to maintain the property for servicing, as well as to ensure safety for the public and staff to facilitate Hydro related operations. This work is usually done when there is a risk of interference in the delivery of power or difficulty for workers to quickly access the equipment. Unfortunately, the municipality has no say in the activities of provincial bodies so we had no means to stop the work or suggest a different approach.

Cleaning the Capital I would like to encourage residents to please register your community clean dates at www.ottawa.ca or by calling 3-1-1. The fall campaign runs from September 15th to October 15th and you have until October 31st to submit your clean report. Kanata South has won the fall Cleaning the Capital award 4 times for most volunteers…let’s set a record and make it 5!

Kanata Beer and Spirits Festival The Kanata Beer and Spirits Festival is coming to the Hazeldean Mall (in the Target space) this weekend (October 9th and 10th)! Tickets are $10 online, or $12 at the door and the event runs on Friday from 3pm-10pm with local musical legend, The Rainman and Saturday from 11am-8pm. Details can be found at www.KanataFest.ca.

If you have other ideas for new festivals and celebrations to be held in Kanata, please let me know how we can help.

Fashion designer and Glen Cairn resident Kym Brown shows some of her work at her home studio in advance of the Art in Fashion 613 event she co-founded. Taking place on Oct. 17, the event will spotlight local up-and-coming designers and their unique visions of clothing as art.

Event looks to inspire greater self-expression Continued from page 1

It’s a message she hopes to spread with a brand new fashion show and night market taking place on Oct. 17 at Library and Archives Canada.

The Art in Fashion 613 event is meant to prove that art can be fashion and fashion can be art, said Brown, who cofounded the show with Creative Ottawa’s René Trim.

10 Kanata Kourier-Standard - Thursday, October 8, 2015

The event will pull together nine different Ottawa designers, many with very unique clothing to show, inspired by steampunk aesthetics, the rockabilly subculture, bioluminescent sea animals and more. One designer is incorporating fibre optics.

With a burlesque performance included (though without a full reveal to keep the event open to all ages), the evening ends with a night market where, among the 35 artists and vendors, the fashion

designers will have booths “where you can meet them in person and purchase right off the runway what you saw that night,” said Brown.

With the incorporation of the night market and the focus on Ottawa’s “hidden fashion design and artistic talent,” Brown says the event should be a ground-breaking one for the city.

“It’s just important in Ottawa where people always say it’s boring and there is no fashion scene and the art scene is not as wild as elsewhere,” she said.

“There are people in the city that maybe people don’t know about, that are different and are there to pique your interest and make you ask questions and make you feel things, whether it’s fear at some of the imagery, or interest and curiosity.”

Brown, owner of Bombshell Revival Designs, will be showing her designs on the catwalk as well, using models with shaved heads and tattoos to

give a sense of the rockabilly aesthetic she tends towards in her work.

While Brown said she hopes her creations give people the idea that they can dress outside of the norm and show their passion with their clothes, it was years before she started fully living that way herself.

Brown spent her final high school days dressing to look like a pin-up model, and soon after grew to be a Madonna clone, she said.

“My mother wouldn’t even go to the store with me unless I changed,” said Brown.

Brown later became a legal assistant in real estate, keeping her tattoos to where they could be hidden and dressing more or less to meet expectations.

But after 20 years, and despite much success and enjoyment in her job, Brown decided a legal assistant wasn’t what she was meant to be.

“So I quit and I went back to school full time,” she said, determined to work in fashion.

“I’ve never been more ful-

filled and more happy.”

Now she’s working to show others there is a choice beyond regular fashion fare, and that they can let their inner geek, freak or whatever show with their clothes.

“I find that there are a lot of people that look the same and if that’s how they are comfortable and that’s who they are, nothing wrong with that. But there are other options out there, and I’m just really about pursuing individuality and being free to express who you are and have people more accepting of that,” said Brown.

Choosing to look very different from the crowd on a day-to-day basis isn’t for everybody, she said, adding she still feels a bit uncomfortable going to her 11-year-old son’s school, where she still gets looks from some people.

But at this point, Brown says different is just who she is.

12 Kanata Kourier-Standard - Thursday, October 8, 2015

The race to represent the Kanata-Carleton riding is close if a poll commissioned

by Ecology Ottawa is anything to go by.

Support for the Conservative party is down by about 10 per cent in comparison to the results of the 2011 federal election, while backing for the Liberal party is up by the same number, said Graham Saul, executive director of Ecology Ottawa.

“It’s become apparent that we actually have an interesting race shaping up in KanataCarleton,” said Saul. “We were surprised. Eight months ago I never would have guessed that Kanata-Carleton would be a close race. It’s closer than everyone expected it would be.”

Conservative candidate Walter Pamic was leading Liberal candidate Karen McCrimmon by seven points at the end of September with a total of 44 points.

The riding-level projections on the website threehundredeight.com had even tighter estimates on Oct. 5 – Pamic was in the lead with 41.2 per cent while McCrimmon was right behind with 40.2 per cent.

Support for Green party candidate Andrew West and NDP candidate John Hansen remained “largely unchanged” from the 2011 election, with five and 13 per cent support respectively.

STRATEGIC VOTING

Saul said Ecology Ottawa, a non-partisan grassroots environmental organization, is not pushing for a certain party but said voters may want to consider strategic voting if they value environmental leadership.

“If the environment is important to you, then the voters of Kanata-Carleton have the opportunity to make a difference in the coming weeks,” said Saul.

“Not all the opposition parties are in a position to win in every riding – but all opposition parties have better environmental platforms. In Kanata-Carleton, your next member of parliament is going to be one of two people, Liberal or Conservative, and from an environmental perspective the difference is significant.”

March rural resident Marjorie Edwards said voters in Kanata-Carleton should consider voting ABC – “Anything But Conservative.”

“The number of pieces of legislation that have gone through in the last 10 years, I don’t think have been beneficial to Canadians,” said Edwards, who was once a member of the Green party but

It’s become apparent that we actually have an interesting race shaping up in Kanata-Carleton GRAHAM SAUL

is now not affiliated with any party.

“The purpose is to encourage people to seek out the most likely candidate other than the Conservative.”

The Ecology Ottawa poll questioned voters’ willingness to switch their votes strategically. It found that 49 per cent of Green voters and 61 per cent of NDP voters would be willing to change their vote.

“If ABC voters co-ordinate their support around Liberal Karen McCrimmon, who polled 37 per cent support, she could well overtake Conservative Walter Pamic, who led with 44 per cent of decided voters in the poll,” said Edwards. “The Liberal candidate has the best chance, with help from NDP and Greens, to win.”

McCrimmon said she prefers the much closer results on threehundredeight.com, but just because the projections have her in a close second, she’s not taking a break from knocking on doors.

“We’re continuing what we’ve been doing all along and that’s knocking on doors, every day talking to people,” she said. “It’s the one-on-one contact that I think will make all the difference in the end.

“Some people vote for the leader or vote for the party; some vote for the platform or for the candidate. Some people will be voting for change and I say that I am the candidate with the real chance to bring change to Kanata-Carleton and the country as a whole.”

A request for comment from Pamic’s office went unreturned by press time.

LeadNow commissioned Environics Research to conduct the poll through telephone surveys of 500 to 600 eligible voters in 31 federal ridings across Canada. Ecology Ottawa co-sponsored the polls in four Ottawa ridings – Kanata-Carleton, Orléans, Ottawa West-Nepean and Nepean.

In Orleans, the poll has Liberal challenger Andrew Leslie, like McCrimmon a military officer, leading Conservative incumbent Royal Galipeau 51 to 36. In Ottawa-West-Nepean Liberal, the poll has Anita Vandenbeld with a narrow four-point lead over Conservative Abdul Abdi.

In the new riding of Nepean, Conservative Andy Wang leads Liberal Chandra Arya of the Liberals 40 to 34, according to the poll.

Ecology Ottawa “wants to see environmental leadership from all its decision makers and representatives,” said Saul. “All the opposition parties have demonstrated more environmental leadership, taken better environmental positions and put forward better environmental platforms over the years than this (Conservative) government has.”

Are ABC voters becoming strategic voters in Kanata-Carleton?

LeadNow

“Anything But Conservative” voters – also known as ABC – are not hard to find. They come in all four colours – red, orange and green, and disaffected blue. Can ABC voters cooperate to vote out the government of Stephen Harper?

Clearly, in 2011 they did not: Harper won a majority with just 39 per cent of the vote. Opposition votes were too split across NDP, Liberal and Green. poll

A Sept. 22 poll of more than 500 Kanata-Carleton residents shows that this riding is now a so-called “conservative swing riding.” If ABC voters co-ordinate their support around Liberal Karen McCrimmon, who polled

37 per cent support, she could well overtake Conservative Walter Pamic, who led with 44 per cent of decided voters in the poll.

The poll, commissioned by LeadNow, a strategic voting organization, probed ABC voters’ willingness to strategically switch their vote. According to the poll, 49 per cent of Green voters and 61 per cent of NDP voters feel so strongly about defeating Harper, that they are willing to switch their vote. This would give McCrimmon the numbers that she needs to win.

So the critical questions are: Do voters realize the power of their individual vote? Is strategic voting too complicated to put into practice? And, can McCrimmon convince enough NDP and Green voters to lend their strategic support?

For more information, visit www. votetogether.ca/pages/localpolling.

METHODOLOGY

Environics was commissioned by LeadNow to conduct telephone surveys of approximately 500 to 600 eligible voters in each of 31 federal ridings across Canada between Sept. 18 and 21, 2015.

In each riding, the names of nominated local candidates were read. Respondents were asked, “In this election, would you say you are voting to re-elect Stephen Harper and the Conservatives, or are you voting to defeat the Harper Conservatives and elect a different government?”

In Kanata-Carleton, the sample size of 562 people provides a margin of error of 4.1 per cent, 19 times out of 20.

For ‘good day, bad day’ Para Transpo users, using OC Transpo when well enough could be the key to sustaining conditional categories allowing those riders to use the accessible service.

Para Transpo looks to broaden base despite tight budget Just as the city prepares to tighten its belt, Para Transpo is considering how to serve more people with intellectual and mental health disabilities.

Provincial accessibility legislation covers both those groups, but right now Para Transpo’s system decides each case based on how well the person can use OC Transpo.

When someone is denied, it’s often because their illness is fickle: someone with anxiety, for example, may sometimes feel able to take the regular bus, and other days not at all.

This kind of ‘good day, bad day’ condition is hard to assess, and right now it’s not even part of Ottawa’s equa-

“Then we’ll have more capacity within Para Transpo to transport those who have no other option,” Blais said.

That’s certainly the goal for Catherine Gardner, who uses a motorized wheelchair.

She said there’s no incentive for Para Transpo users to transfer from Para to regular transit because they’ve already paid for their trip.

She said bringing the Presto payment system into Para Transpo would encourage more cross-traffic.

Creating a “hub and spoke” system connected to conventional transit stations would also free up space on accessible vans.

“I see many, many people on Para Transpo who maybe should be on OC Transpo,” she said.

tion. But it could be: Calgary has done it, offering several conditional categories. ‘Direct riders,’ for example, use accessible transit only when the regular bus would requires a transfer beyond their capability.

But Anu Bose, who participated in Para Transpo’s consultations, said all these good ideas were ignoring “the elephant in the room”: what it’s going to cost.

“We’re making all these wild demands without knowing what’s actually feasible,” she said.

According to transit commission chairman Coun. Stephen Blais, the changes don’t have to cost more if current users can be encouraged to take OC Transpo when they’re able.

Ottawa driving sponsorship efforts with new website, fundraising campaign Erin McCracken

erin.mccracken@metroland.com

Mohd Jamal Alsharif was just one of hundreds of people who came to city hall looking for answers.

As the son of Palestinian refugees who fled to Canada, he is determined to sponsor Syrian refugee families desperately trying to leave their warravaged homeland behind and start afresh – and rebuild in safety.

“We started a small group (of

sponsors) by ourselves when we saw that picture of that small boy...,” he said, pausing as the tears rolled down his cheeks.

Alsharif remains haunted by the images of Aylan Kurdi, the threeyear-old Syrian Kurdish boy – a refugee – who drowned after the overcrowded boat he and his fleeing family were on capsized in Turkey last month.

“I understand that (experience),”

said the Gatineau, Que., resident, who works in the Hunt Club community. “It’s very difficult to lose a child.”

Others were equally as motivated to attend the mayor’s forum on Syrian refugee resettlement efforts on Oct. 1, held to connect potential sponsors with community organizations, faith groups and agencies, as well as access free legal expertise during a clinic hosted by the Canadian Asso-

OUR FALL COUPON EVENT

ciation of Refugee Lawyers and the University of Ottawa Refugee Sponsorship Support Program.

The event also coincided with the launch of Refugee613.ca, an organization that will co-ordinate the efforts of local sponsorship agencies and settlement organizations to ensure the city is ready to meet the needs of refugees who come here.

The organizations spearheading the new initiative plan to chip in and hire a co-ordinator as soon as possible. In the meantime, the website offers different ways people can help: sponsorship, advocacy, donating funds and volunteering.

“Our city and our residents are committed to accepting and assisting refugees in our community, and as a result this will place significant demands on the resource of our local immigrant agencies and organiza-

tions,” Mayor Jim Watson told the capacity crowd in council chambers.

“We need to work together as a community to help those who need our assistance.”

Refugee613.ca is designed to serve as a virtual mirror of the forum, a one-stop shop with information and contact details for those looking to connect with organizations, from the United Way to the Catholic Centre for Immigrants.

“It’s a co-ordinating, communicating, inspiring ... web portal,” said Carl Nicholson, executive director of the Catholic Centre for Immigrants.

“It’s a way of trying to co-ordinate, to convene, to make sure we’re not wasting energy.

“We think it will allow more people to know what they can do.”

YOU WILL BE MISSED BUT NEVER FORGOTTEN

MAX’S UNRELENTING LOYALTY TO OUR CHILDREN AND YOUTH WILL CONTINUE TO MAKE A DIFFERENCE FOR FAMILIES WHO NEED CHEO Max Keeping has been CHEO’s greatest ambassador and champion for the past 40 years. His presence on the CHEO Telethon each June marked another year of countless appearances at special events, hospital visits to raise the spirits of kids and families, and advocating for them nightly from the anchor desk. Max’s immeasurable love for the children of our community was recognized in 2003 when CHEO named a new wing in his honour. The Max Keeping Wing stands as a permanent reminder of his incredible dedication and contribution to CHEO and the difference Max continues to make in the lives of all children and families we have the privilege of serving.

In accordance with Max's wishes, the new Max Keeping Fund for Kids has been established. This fund will ensure that his name and his unwavering support for children and families is ever present within CHEO and within our community.

On behalf of all CHEO patients, families, doctors, nurses, researchers and staff, we thank you for always being there for us.

Fundraising efforts being mobilized Continued from page 16

The website offers several ways people can get involved, including advocacy, volunteering, sponsoring and donating, and is another step towards ensuring Ottawa is ready to provide for refugees who settle in the city.

The organizations involved in the new service plan to each chip in money to hire a co-ordinator as soon as possible.

Nicholson said Refugee613 will ensure community services are not duplicated, so that more people can benefit.

“We don’t want to have six agencies for training programs for sponsors on the same night,” he said.

It’s too early to set a goal of how many refugees Ottawa can take in, but the city can accommodate more than the estimated 1,000 refugees who arrive here every year.

That will depend on the federal government, which oversees immigration.

“The latest numbers from the federal government were 10,000 refugees over a span of four years. Well, that’s only 2,500 refugees a year for the whole country.

“So we think we can do more than that obviously as a country,” Watson said.

“We want to make sure we take as many as we can and make sure that we have the capacity to welcome them with open arms when they do arrive here.”

For those who can’t commit to the approximately $27,000

Mohd Jamal Alsharif, a Gatineau, Que., resident who works in the Hunt Club community, was brought to tears during the mayor’s forum on Syrian refugee resettlement efforts at city hall on Oct. 1. Hundreds attended the event, which featured information tables, a free legal clinic and a panel discussion. cost to sponsor a refugee, they are being asked to donate to a newly launched fundraising campaign, Ottawa United for Refugees.

It will allow more groups who are willing to provide sponsorship, but can’t afford it.

“So by doing this citywide fundraising we can help subsidize or cross-subsidize those groups, to dip into this common pool of dollars so that we don’t have dollars and finances as the reason why we can’t use your good resources to sponsor someone.”

Between the fundraising ef-

fort, the sponsorship assistance and the enormous crowd during the forum, Alsharif said he was heartened to see the mobilization efforts.

“With all these people hand in hand, I think we can do something,” he said. “We need to act.

We need to motivate people.

“When I heard about this, I know a lot of Ottawa citizens and Gatineau citizens were coming here because they have open hearts,” said Alsharif, wiping away his tears. “There is no home like home; however, Canada is a special place where ... everyone feels at home.”

John Mlacak retrospective to take place at Ottawa gallery Prolific artist and one of Kanata’s founding fathers remembered Adam Kveton

adam.kveton@metroland.com

Some of John Mlacak’s largest artistic works will be on display at a major Ottawa art gallery just over one year after the death of the Kanata activist, supporter and longtime resident.

A lover and painter of Canadian landscapes, the artwork of former March township reeve (representing the northern part of Kanata before it became a city) will be shown at Koyman Galleries at 1771 St Laurent Blvd. from Oct. 17 to Nov. 1.

Mlacak’s widow, Beth Mlacak, said she is thrilled to have the gallery show her late husband’s work, especially as it is one of the few places were his largest pieces have the space to be displayed.

Of the 32 pieces to be Submitted shown, some are as large as John Mlacak’s painting, Vu de l’arrière, Montréal, adorns the invitation to a retrospective one-by-1.3 metres.

“I think there is a good, showing of the late artist’s work, to be held at Koyman Galleries at 1771 St Laurent Blvd. broad cross-section of his from Oct.17 to Nov. 1.

work,” Beth said of the pieces to be displayed.

“They are bright and vibrant, lively,” she said of his work. “He used to say to people, ‘There is enough doom and gloom in the world. I’m not prepared to join that. I’m going to use our lovely Canadian landscape colours.’”

She said her husband was particularly fond of messy backyards as art subjects.

In addition to a focus on autumn colours with a light dusting of snow, Beth said with a laugh, “He loved garbage cans – particularly fond of garbage cans. You know, the messier the better.”

The upcoming show is already very different than previous ones, she said, as she and John were used to being quite involved with the setup.

“I keep asking them what am I supposed to do, and they said, ‘Well, just get your hair done and show up.’ I’m not used to that. I’m very excited

about it,” she said.

REMEBERING MLACAK

There is much more than Mlacak’s own art to recall the Kanata advocate. In the Mlacak Centre – named for the artist and former reeve – a large portrait of his likeness is displayed near the entrance to the new Beaverbrook library branch.

The portrait was done by Gerald Smith, fellow artist and a friend of John’s, said Beth. He passed away around the same time, but not before doing a portrait series that included his friend.

Beth said she hopes the portrait and details about John will keep his memory alive as newcomers and children wonder who the man in the painting was.

OC Transpo is looking for millions of dollars in efficiencies, in addition to millions from a tax hike and fares, as rising costs and low ridership find it in need of $24.5 million.

Compliments

OC Transpo plans tax hike to balance budget Emma Jackson Metro Ottawa

OC Transpo is raising its transit tax 2.5 per cent in 2016 as the transit operator faces rising costs and flat-lining ridership.

An early budget report released Sept. 29 asks staff to craft a transit budget that finds $24.5 million in new money while limiting the transit tax increase to 2.5 per cent.

Between the $9 million extra collected through that hike and another $6.9 million more coming from fares, OC

Transpo will still have to find $8.6 million in ‘efficiencies’ to avoid going into deficit.

That process has already started, according to transit commission chairman Coun.

Stephen Blais. He said five management positions were cut this summer, and the system is “becoming more efficient in how some of the routes operate.”

But that hasn’t been enough to fend off a rising tide of extra costs. Insurance claims were much higher than budgeted in 2015, for example, and as warranties end on the city’s fleet of hy-

brid buses maintenance costs are rising, too.

“In order to provide the same level of service doing the same work on the buses, we now have to spend more money,” Blais said.

Blais said more details about OC Transpo’s savings plan will come to the finance committee as part of the draft budget. He skirted the notion the transit operator is considering service cuts.

“We need to consider making sure we have an efficient and affordable system for the highest number of people that we can,” he said.

Duncan, Margaret Helen Margaret Helen Duncan died the morning of Saturday, October 3, 2015. She had struggled for the past few years with the challenges of dementia. At the end, she was a shell of her former self, enjoying the few small pleasures that are left to those getting from one day to the next in the small world in which very old and ill people are often forced to live. Helen’s parents, Peggy and Jack Duncan of Peterborough, Ontario, died many years ago as did her only sibling, her brother, Ronald Duncan (Mary), of London, Ontario. Born in Estevan, Saskatchewan (May 19, 1929), Helen moved to Peterborough, Ontario as a child. It was there she met and, in 1949, married Charles James Helmes of Sydenham, Ontario. Helen and Charlie lived in Peterborough and Belleville before moving to Ottawa in 1962. They had four children — Rick (Pamela), Geoff (Nancy), Melanie (Mike Shurben) and Kyle (Helene), but divorced after nearly three decades together. She never remarried and for the rest of her life pursued her own interests. She lived and worked for awhile in Ottawa before moving, first, to Smiths Falls, and, finally, to Carleton Place. She lived at the Carleton Place Manor for a few years moving subsequently to Stoneridge Manor, and passed the final months of her life in their care. The family would like to thank the nurses, doctors and other staff who helped her — and us — to make the last years of her life as pleasant as possible. Helen liked art and design and for a number of years worked at an art gallery and for a couple of years ran a couple of small dress shops in Ottawa. Like her mother, she was a talented artisan who took great pleasure and showed great skill at various crafts: knitting, sewing, needlepoint, brass, mosaic tile, etc. to create personal heirlooms for members of the family. She will be remembered with love and fondness by her children, grandchildren (Kevin, Graham, Jessica, Ian, Jim, Christine (Fady), Sarah and Leah) and great-grandchildren (Charlee, Sawyer, Owen, and Conner). A memorial service will be held Saturday, October 10, 2015 at the Alan R. Barker Funeral Home, 19 McArthur Avenue, Carleton Place. Visitation beginning at 1:00. Service at 2:30 in the chapel.

Reception to follow. www.barkerfh.com

Ottawa team finishes third in City Chase nationals brier.dodge@metroland.com

If more than 16 hours of running, white water rafting, swimming, laser tag, archery, or eating 40 chicken wings in one sitting sounds like an exciting day, meet Alex Read, 27, and Matt Kelly, 26.

The pair just took third place in the City Chase national championships on Sept. 26, a competition that had them complete checkpoints and run cross the city in a race against teams from across Canada.

“It’s very similar to what you’d see on the Amazing Race,” said Read, who grew up in Orléans and attended Sir Wilfrid Laurier Secondary School.

“But all condensed into one day.”

The team, dubbed “The Alex and Matt Story”, took second place at the City Chase event held in Ottawa.

The top three teams at events held across Canada qualified for the national championships, hosted this year right here in Ottawa.

The qualifier event was a much shorter event which only took teams a couple of hours. Nationals however, took significantly more endurance.

Read and Kelly – who grew up in Nepean – estimate they ran the equivalent of a marathon – 42 km – throughout the day. They were told

Read said the most challenging checkpoint was a BMX track. They ended up taking a 10 minute time penalty because neither could complete the track in less than 60 seconds.

A favourite though, was flyboarding, where jets propel you up from a board out of the water while the participant balances.

Getting to try so many different activities was the highlight for the pair.

A lot of the things they got to do would normally require an admission fee or have a cost associated with them – so it was a free, day-long crash course in all the different activities available in Ottawa.

The other highlight, said, Read, was all the people who took part. Most teams advanced by finishing in the top of their local city chase, though there were some fundraising and social media challenge wildcard entries Submitted/City Chase accepted as well.

Alex Read, left, and Matt Kelly recieve their medals for finishing in third place at City “We were all competing Chase National champioinships held Sept. 26. against each other, but we’re all in the same situation,” he said. “Because it’s not a sprint – it’s a marathon. (I’d do it again) in a heartbeat.”

With many teams competing year after year, Read said he sees himself doing the City Chase competition again in the future.

“Once you start, you can’t stop,” he said. “You just want to do better.”

after that the minimum distance teams who completed the course ran was about 30 km.

Teams had to complete a variety of checkpoints at different locations throughout the city.

The competition included figuring out the clues to find the checkpoints, getting from point A to point B with only their legs, OC Transpo, or in some cases, a volunteer city chase driver. Then, they had to complete the checkpoints to advance.

Midway through the day, the last place teams were eliminated from the competition.

Having the national championship at home definitely gave the pair an advantage.

At one point in the competition, two out-of-town teams asked a bus driver for directions, while the local boys snuck off the back of the bus and high-tailed it to the OTrain.

They beat the other two teams to the checkpoint – a mail sorting challenge at Canada Post – by about 15 minutes.

The challenges were exactly that: challenges. There was a wide variety of tasks in the 24 events they competed in, from a mental test of 100 questions, to white water rafting on the Ottawa River, to jumping from a tall diving tower while throwing a ball into a hoop.

Poll says senior care an election issue: poll As Canadians celebrate National Seniors Day today, a new poll shows that the vast majority (83 per cent) think it is important that the long-term health needs of seniors be addressed during this federal election campaign.

The poll findings strongly support the ongoing efforts of the Canadian Medical Association to make the creation of a national senior strategy an issue for all candidates.

More than 25,000 Canadians have endorsed the CMA’s call for action through www.demandaplan.ca.

“On this, National Seniors Day, we are seeing growing momentum as the federal parties engage with Canadians on how they would address the greatest looming challenge facing our nation: specifically how they would create a national senior strategy,” said Dr. Cindy Forbes, the CMA President. “There are just 19 days remaining in the federal election campaign, the CMA and the over 25,000 supporters who have called for action on senior care through www.demandaplan.ca want action now.”

In commissioning the poll, the CMA continues to connect with Canadians in calling attention to the fact that Canada’s older population is set to almost double over the next 20 years, while the 85 and older population is set to quadruple. These demographic facts demand that our federal leaders act now.

Each week, a lawyer from the Kanata based Allan Snelling law firm will answer a reader’s question.

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

I have been living with my boyfriend for 18 months and we have no plans to get married. At what point are we considered “common law” and what does that mean?

What constitutes “common law” as most people use the term is highly dependent on the circumstances. In terms of the ownership of assets, a common law spouse has no right to the assets of the other party – the starting point at law is that each party keeps assets in their own name, and jointly titled assets are divided evenly.

QUICK FACTS

* Only 11 per cent are confident and 31 per cent somewhat confident that when they are 65 years of age or older they will be able to afford either daily home care or to reside in a private long-term care facility with the quality of life they would like. * Only 10 per cent are confident and 32 per cent are somewhat confident that they will have appropriate supports (family, friends, or ability to pay for services) to provide the health care services they will need as they age. * Almost half (43 per cent) have a family member or close friend who is elderly and in need of daily home care or lives in a private long-term care facility.

These observations are based on a hybrid telephone (land- and cell-lines) and online random survey of 1,000 Canadians, 18 years of age or older, between Sept. 12 and 15, as part of an omnibus survey. The margin of error for a random survey of 1,000 Canadians is plus or minus 3.1 percentage points, 19 times out of 20.

However, a party who is not the registered owner of an asset may claim an interest in the property through the legal concept of unjust enrichment or a constructive trust. In these cases, a party must demonstrate that although they are not a registered owner to the asset, they have contributed to the acquisition, maintenance or appreciation of the asset, entitling them to a share in the value. These cases are somewhat complex and depend heavily on the unique facts of each situation.

Will MacEwen

Prior to returning to Ontario and joining Allan Snelling LLP, Will was the managing partner of a full service law firm on Vancouver Island. He is experienced in family law, commercial and real estate matters, and all matters relating to wills and estates.

In terms of spousal support, a common law partner only has the potential entitlement to spousal support after three years of continuous cohabitation, or if there is a relationship of permanence and you have a child together. The amount of spousal support payable, if any, will depend on several factors, such as the income, assets, health and financial independence of each party.

Again, the specific facts of each case are important.

In most cases, it is important to understand your rights and liabilities, and to conduct yourself in a manner which will not create undue hardship or confusion upon the end of the relationship.

Hockey hopefuls get on the ice thanks to special equipment Adam Kveton

adam.kveton@metroland.com

Two young boys who were told they could never play hockey – the game they love – are now able to do just that thanks to some special equipment and a fundraising push from a supportive community.

Tysen Lefebvre and Lukas Hooper both have severe health issues which normally make participation in sports difficult and dangerous. But upon contacting the Capital City Condors, a hockey club that works to make hockey possible for young special needs athletes, and learning about a device called a Kaye Trainer, the two boys and their families discovered

they had a chance to lace up and get on the ice.

The Kaye Trainers are large metal frames with a harness and wheels on each leg, which the Condors said would provide enough support and protection for Lukas and Tysen to play.

But with a price of $2,500 each, some extra fundraising was needed.

The company which makes the device donated one of them to the hockey club, while Kanata photographer Steve Cain, a longtime supporter of the Condors, dedicated his White Shirt Gallery project to raising funds for the second Kaye Trainer.

Kanata photographer helps hockey dreams come true Continued from page 39

Over the course of a year, Cain was able to raise half the money and present it at the Condors annual banquet in May. “That was my goal; to get 50 per cent,” Cain said. “And I thought, ‘Well, what about the other 50 per cent?’”

Stepping up his efforts, Cain aimed to have the remaining $1,250 raised over the summer in time for the start of hockey season.

With many community members and groups interested in participating, Cain was able to raise more than $1,250 in the short period of time, and says people are still interested in taking part in the project.

“Everything over and above gets given to the team at their banquet next spring,” he said, as the project has been a fundraiser for the Condors since 2011.

Cain wasn’t the only one to help fundraise for the trainers, said Jim Perkins, president and founder of the Condors.

“As we put the word out, people got involved in it that we hadn’t even met before,” he said. “One family donated $500 within the week just because they wanted to see it happen.”

“One girl raised $80 at a lemonade stand and then her parents matched it, and another little guy did a fundraiser with his school friends.”

ON THE ICE

“It really wasn’t until we knew there was a possibility he could play that we realized how much it meant to him, and to us as a family to support him, to be on a hockey team with his peers,” said Lefebvre.

Both boys were excited to have their first goals arranged during an on-ice tryout of the new equipment on Sept. 19, said Perkins.

“Just the screams when they scored that goal, and to look over and to see parents standing there, just in tears because this is something they never thought they would see … it’s unbelievably meaningful for the kids, but I think we underestimate just how much it might mean to the parents too,” he said.

With the addition of the Kaye Trainers, even more families will be able to see their young athletes do what they thought was impossible and play hockey, said Perkins.

“Through some assistance and through the kindness of people around Kanata and around Ottawa, it’s just going to become possible for more people to get out on the ice and be a part of the game,” he said.

The Condors hockey season has now started, with the players on the ice at Jack Charron Arena every Saturday. Perkins encouraged others to come by and see what it’s like for the Condors athletes to play.

“It’s just pure joy for them to be out there,” he said.

For more information on the Condors, visit capitalcitycondors.org. To find out more about Cain’s White Shirt Gallery, go to caincophoto.com/ Charity-Work.

On Sept. 19, Cain and other fundraisers joined Tysen, Lukas, their families and

Condors volunteers to see the two boys’ first time using the Kaye Trainers and scoring their first goals.

“It’s a bit emotional for everybody that was out there, seeing all this come together,” said Cain.

Lukas’s dad, Mark Hooper, said he never thought his son would be able to play hockey.

Now nearly 16 years of age, Lukas contracted meningitis when he was two days old, said Hooper. That led to significant brain damage, and left Lukas with cerebral palsy, which includes physical and developmental disabilities “The chance to be on the ice and participate in hockey is going to be very exciting for him because he loves the sport,” said Hooper.

Though the Hooper family knew about the Condors for many years, they were concerned for Lukas’s safety.

But with the Kaye Trainer, Hooper said they are no longer worried, but are excited to see Lukas participate in the sport.

Tysen’s mother, Linda Lefebvre, said the day was nothing less than a dream becoming reality for Tysen.

“He’s already told his dad, Scott, and I that we need to go out and get Hockey Mom and Hockey Dad jackets,” she said.

Tysen, known for his fundraising efforts for the MakeA-Wish foundation through his Tysen’s Mission to a Million campaign, has a rare genetic disorder called Pfeiffer syndrome which causes bones in the skull to fuse prematurely.

Despite a record-setting performance by Wendel, the GeeGees fell to the Ravens 48-45 in double overtime. Wendel set a school and personal best, throwing for 542 yards in the loss. Ravens quarterback Jesse Mills threw for 217 yards and four touchdowns.

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.

“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.

Pre-budget meeting gives little choice to residents Have to lose something to get something, say councillors Adam Kveton adam.kveton@metroland.com

The city chose to start a new pre-budget process this year, with meetings for residents in areas across the city between Sept. 19 and Oct. 8.

However, much of the meeting for Kanata and Stittsville residents was spent explaining just how little choice city council has in determining the budget for 2016.

The city’s treasurer, Marian Simulik, began the meeting on Sept. 29 with a breakdown of the city’s 2015 budget of $3.1 billion into categories, showing which services were funded directly from fees (meaning the city can’t move money from that into something else), which included funding from the province with the city providing the service on the province’s behalf, and other categories to give an idea of what money council could actually choose to allocate elsewhere.

“The amount that we really control is not very great,” said Kanata North Coun. Marianne Wilkinson, though an exact amount was not given.

Nonetheless, both Wilkinson and Stittsville Coun. Shad Qadri sought to engage the dozen or so residents present in the budget process. Those in attendance included a young boy who Qadri asked for input on where he would like to see more money allocated.

The boy said he would like to see more soccer fields, and that existing ones be better maintained.

Qadri then asked the boy to identify another service that the money should be taken from for the soccer fields.

While the boy suggested savings could be found with the police, who he said could use their time more wisely, the theme of getting something only while losing something else remained throughout the meeting.

Another resident suggested that, if the city is finding itself with so few options in allocating funds, perhaps it could choose to increase property taxes. The resident went on to say that many organizations for the poor and newcomers to the city are in great need of more support from the city.

And, with the city facing its largest deficit ever – estimated at $41 million – valuable services are at risk, said the resident.

However, Mayor Jim Watson has promised that property tax increases go no higher than two per cent.

Wilkinson said that while Watson’s promise has been a point of contention with the council, the city is doing other things to save money, with a hiring freeze currently in place and restrictions on overtime and expenses.

While the resident suggested a three or four per cent tax increase could help underfunded community services, Wilkinson said though residents often say they are willing to spend a little more on certain services, they often change their tune come tax time.

ADAM KVETON/METROLAND

City of Ottawa treasurer Marian Simulik uses last year’s city budget to show what portions go to which services, and how much money city council has to move around, during a pre-budget meeting in the Mlacak Centre on Sept. 29.

Another resident suggested that perhaps councillors need to stand up to the mayor and push for a tax increase.

Wilkinson responded, “We respect his position.”

A different resident said perhaps the city should look

at its compensation rates for employees, which is the largest component of the city’s operating budget, and have recently grown above consumer price index increases, he said.

Wilkinson said this is due to unions and compulsory

binding arbitration, which she said unions use “at the drop of a hat.”

Qadri and Wilkinson said there is little the city can do on that front.

When the resident suggested the city look at outsourcing

some jobs, Wilkinson said the city is doing that when it can, but those opportunities are limited due to union agreements, adding that the city is working to reduce redundant management positions to save money.

City mourns death of ‘champion for the underdog’ Max Keeping Erin McCracken erin.mccracken@metroland.com

Max Keeping, considered by many as a community leader and champion for children, has died at the age of 73.

Mayor Jim Watson’s voice broke as he struggled to contain his emotions when he announced Keeping’s passing in front of a packed council chamber during the city’s Syrian refugee resettlement forum at city hall on Oct. 1.

A minute of silence was held in Keeping’s memory.

“It’s a very, very sad day for the whole city. Max was larger than life,” said Watson, who first met Keeping in 1982 when Watson was a student leader at Carleton University.

“He was such a community builder, such a great friend to so many different causes and individuals. He was always a @CHEO/TWITTER champion for the underdog Veteran news anchor and champion for children, Max Keeping, who anchored the annual and always so positive, even CHEO Telethon for more than 25 years, passed away Oct. 1 at the age of 73 after a long during his many bouts with cancer.” battle with cancer.

When Watson last saw Keeping about a month ago at a fundraising event, Watson said “he was still living life to the max, as he used to Contact us today and Get YOUR BUSINESS FOUND! say.”

He epitomized community and advocated for children and youth, including children in care, said Ottawa South MPP John Fraser, who knew Keeping well for the past 16 years.

“He work very hard on scholarships for wards of the Crown so he always brought to us, not (things) for him-

self, but for kids, whether it was through CHEO, wards of the Crown or children’s mental health,” he said.

“He was able to help us give expression to the desire to do the right thing for our kids. He brought people together.”

Staff, volunteers and patients and their families at CHEO, where a wing was named in Keeping’s honour in 2003, were also in mourning.

“Today, Ottawa has lost one of its proudest ambassadors. Kids in our community have lost one of their biggest champions. CHEO has lost its most ardent supporter,” Alex Munter, CHEO president and chief executive, said in a statement.

Keeping anchored the annual CHEO Telethon, the regional hospital’s largest fundraiser, for more than 25 years.

He was first diagnosed with prostate cancer in 2003.

It returned in 2010, the same year as his final CTV Ottawa News broadcast, according to the media outlet.

The longtime community leader, who hailed from Newfoundland, was first named to the CJOH news anchor desk in 1972.

“He was in your living room every night,” said Fraser.

Munter said the veteran newsman was a “constant presence during generations of tremendous change.”

“To put Max’s longevity into perspective, by the time I entered Grade 1 in 1974,

Max was already a fixture on Ottawa’s airwaves,” said Munter, who recalled going to work for Keeping for a couple of years when Munter was a CTV Ottawa commentator.

Keeping remained a strong advocate for children, even through his own cancer diagnosis and treatment, said Munter.

“This past year was very hard as Max lost his legendary ‘gift of the gab’ – but he never lost his spirit, curiosity or love of community.

When I last saw him, the TV was tuned to federal election coverage and newspapers were spread across his bed, the inveterate newsman,” he said. “As I gave him the latest updates from CHEO, he smiled and laughed – always happy at the success of ‘his’ hospital.”

Keeping co-founded Child and Youth Friendly Ottawa, and established the Max Keeping Foundation, which helped more than 6,000 families over 21 years.

The charity was dissolved earlier this year amid his deteriorating health, and the remaining $150,000 went to the creation of the Max Keeping Fund For Kids, an endowment fund at CHEO that helps families with expenses related to medical care, such as travel and accommodation.

“There is no doubt that Max’s legacy will be felt by kids for generations to come,” said Munter. “Indeed, Max will always be a hero to CHEO.”

Figure your way out of Ottawa’s newest escape room Erin McCracken erin.mccracken@metroland.com

You and your team have tracked a terrorist with a penchant for explosives to an abandoned bunker.

Your informant leads you into the dimly lit and sparsely furnished space, where a black light glows eerily overhead. He slips behind you and slams and locks the door, altering the course of your mission.

You have exactly 60 minutes to escape the Boom Room, the first themed escape room launched Oct. 2 by the directors and owners of Room Escape Ottawa, located on Bank Street in south Ottawa.

“Basically we’re making a movie here, but one that you can be in and one that you can interact with and hopefully win and hopefully solve,” said Qi Hu, a Nepean resident who coowns the business with Ramsay Jackson, of Riverside Park, and Greenboro resident and marketing expert Brian Seto.

Teams of two to eight people must follow a series of clues and solve puzzles to gain entry to a second room, and eventually a third before making their way to freedom.

Notes, drawings, books and strange symbols and patterns hold the key. Even the music and sounds piped into the room can hold answers.

Those who become stumped can use a walkie-talkie they will eventually find to ask Jackson for a hint. He’ll be watching teams

as they work via wall-mounted cameras.

“Just like any movie, you want to have “A-ha” moments that either happen physically or happen mentally, and for us we have both,” said the carpenter by trade who is now at work designing and constructing a second theme room, known as Serial Killer Charade, which will open in December. Two more rooms will be unveiled next year.

The business is the latest in the escape room game craze that has been sweeping Canada over the past year, including here in Ottawa – part of a trend that first emerged in Japan and then spread to China in 2012 before moving into Eastern Europe.

It was Hu, a high-tech expert and former competitive gamer, who pitched the concept to Jackson. They were hoping to open in January, but were caught up in a lengthy permit process. In the meantime, they opened Archery Tag in the same 740-square-metre building.

Their puzzle designs are a collaborative effort with Toronto-based Game Hive game and app designers, and future rooms – though still under development – will be multi-storey. The directors are considering changing the Boom Room theme and puzzles next year to draw in players who will have already tackled it.

“When you’re in the gaming industry or the recreation industry like we are, it’s just how far the mind can take it,” said Hu. Some escape rooms feature

robotics, live actors and require participants to construct devices. Themes vary from thriller to horror, complete with gory props.

Jackson said the Boom Room is ideal for participants as young as 12, though they’ll need adult assistance with the puzzles. As for the serial killer room, they’re still deciding just how scary it will be.

“So you can get into a real horror theme and that’s a big part of the fun … being scared while you’re in there,” said Jackson.

“Why else would you escape?” asked Hu, a high-tech expert and former competitive gamer. “To fit into the narrative of escaping something you need to be escaping something dangerous.”

Early testers of the Boom Room weren’t able to escape, though some came close. For those who want a quick exit before the hour is up, the door to the first room will remain unlocked.

“It’s a delicate balancing act that you have to maintain in there so that everybody’s going to have fun with it, but not everybody’s going to get out,” Jackson said.

DETAILS

The experience is $24 per person. Room Escape Ottawa is open Friday to Sunday and is located at 1860 Bank St. in unit 3B. For details, visit roomescapeottawa.com.

Hospice initiative heading for goal St. Paul’s Anglican Church

St. Paul’s Anglican Church hosted a Spaghetti Dinner and Silent Auction on Oct. 3 to support Hospice Care Ottawa in raising funds for the addition of a 12-bed residence at the Ruddy-Shenkman Hospice in Kanata.

Once built, this residence will provide compassionate end-of-life care in a home-like and peaceful setting to patients and their families.

St. Paul’s is participating in the West End

Churches for Hospice initiative, which is working towards raising $100,000 for naming rights to a Reflection Room in the Ruddy-Shenkman Hospice. St. Paul’s was aiming to donate $5,000 towards that $100,000 goal.

We are very pleased to announce that we surpassed our goal – the event raised $6,728 for hospice!

A big thank-you to the many volunteers who made the event possible, and to the Kanata community for supporting this worthy cause.

Seniors: live at home and be active Submitted

Imaging dying alone at home without being found for two years, and your neighbours taping your door to keep down the smell. It may sound unbelievable but it happened in real life to an isolated senior in Italy.

Jacques Bertrand, the Executive Director of HelpAge Canada, told this story at an event hosted

by HelpAge Canada at the First Unitarian Congregation of Ottawa on Oct. 1 – International Seniors’ Day. The objective of the day was to “address the effects of social isolation and loneliness on seniors and find community based solutions,” said Natalie Fraser, the event’s organizer.

Community groups and seniors from around Ottawa were invited to discuss the issues of social isolation and loneliness.

Activities ranged from live music, tap dancing, Bollywood dancing (all done by senior groups), cultural exhibits, an information booth on services provided by the

city and other community groups, as well as discussion panels consisting of seniors from diverse cultural backgrounds.

“If you are alone in the suburbs and don’t have family around you, you can be very lonely,” said Gail, one of the panellists, explaining the emotional challenges faced by isolated seniors. She continued to suggest what one could do to support isolated seniors.

“If you know someone in a house or an apartment by himself or herself, just knock on the door and say ‘hi I’m your neighbour’ and ask if there’s anything you can help with.”

Seniors living at home may feel lonely or have difficulties looking for assistance in their daily living.

“Keep contact with your church, friends and family…look for services like the senior centre,” said Earl, another panellist. “Get to know what are the options available when you can’t take care of yourself anymore …there are many community groups to help.”

Many participants shared their own stories.

T r e n d s Magazine

“I learned to be with people [through joining a community senior centre]. I used to hide in the house for many years...it takes courage...but now I feel I can’t be happier,” one person said.

Other discussions also touched on issues faced by immigrant seniors. John, a panellist, shared his story.

As immigrants with no relatives nearby, he and his wife used to work a lot.

“After all this time, we felt lost and isolated…but the seniors’ program changed our lives.”

They started to participate and became more active. “Our health has greatly improved … we feel much younger when we are in the group,” he said.

Speaking on the solutions for social isolation, most panellists agreed that volunteering is important.

“Being a senior, everyday is another day. But my days are full, because I volunteer,” said one of the panellists. “Volunteer and you will have a good life and won’t be lonely,” said Gail.

HelpAge Canada is launching the RISE (Reach Isolated Seniors Everywhere) this fall. “We have many partners across Canada. Our goal is to gather as many organizations as possible to spread the message about social isolation and loneliness,” explained Bertrand. “There are different stages of social isolation; the more one becomes isolated, the more one is at risk for health and mental problems that can result in emergency room visits,” said Bertrand.

HelpAge Canada has developed a tool to help identify symptoms of social isolation and the corresponding actions. The tool can be found on the RISE websitem www. rise-cisa.ca.

“We are hoping that organizations and individuals will download this tool and distribute it,” said Bertrand.

HelpAge Canada encourages organizations and businesses to join or sponsor the campaign. They are also looking for volunteers to help write and translate materials to promote best practices in this area.

Grandmothers in solidarity Cathy Blauer

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.

Ottawa west resident Marjory Kort is a member of One World Grannies, a group that meets monthly and is hosting the first annual GRAND Marketplace.

“We raise funds and awareness, and advocate for policies and programs to improve the situation for the grandmothers in Africa,” she says. “This is meaningful volunteer work that connects grandmothers and others in this active network of 26 grandmother groups in our region.”

The grandmother groups channel the money they raise to grassroots organizations in Africa through the Grandmother to Grandmother cam-

paign of the Stephen Lewis Foundation.

The money provides grandmothers and the children in their care with income generation activities, seeds for gardens, bereavement counselling, HIV awareness training and testing, home visits, support groups, school fees, housing and more.

The courageous African grandmothers are the unsung heroes of Africa. They are the experts in what is needed and what to do.

Eleven regional grandmother groups are collaborating in the Grand Marketplace on Nov. 14 at the Churchill Seniors’ Centre, 345 Richmond Rd. from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m.

This marketplace will be the scene of a grand bazaar where you will find new and gently used brand name women’s clothing, high quality 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.

HOW YOU CAN GET INVOLVED

• Join us on Nov. 14 at the Grand Marketplace, Churchill Seniors’ Centre, 345 Richmond Rd. from 9 a.n. to 3 p.m.

• Join a group. You don’t need to be a grandmother; grand-others are always welcome. Contact cathyjbauer@ gmail.com for information on groups near you.

• Learn more about the grandmothers’ advocacy efforts at grandmothersadvocacy.org.

• Donate directly to the Stephen Lewis Foundation and learn more about the Grandmothers to Grandmothers Campaign at www.grandmotherscampaign.org.

Best September on record for number of Ottawa resales Submitted

Members of the Ottawa Real Estate Board sold 1,244 residential properties in September through the Board’s Multiple Listing Service® System, compared with 1,131 in September 2014, an increase of 10 per cent. The five-year average for September sales is 1,137.

“Ottawa Real Estate Board members continued their ac-

tive summer into a busy fall,” says David Oikle, President of the Ottawa Real Estate Board.

“In fact this September marks the best September on record for the number of units sold in the Ottawa resale market.

There was a possibility that the federal election campaign might affect the local real estate market, but this does not appear to have been the case thus far.”

September’s sales includ-

ed 221 in the condominium property class, and 1,023 in the residential property class.

The condominium property class includes any property, regardless of style (i.e. detached, semi-detached, apartment, stacked etc.), which is registered as a condominium, as well as properties which are co-operatives, life leases and timeshares. The residential property class includes all other residential properties.

THANK YOU!

brand

The Ottawa Regional Cancer Foundation would like to thank the EPIC WALK Leadership Team, co-chairs Jan Harder and Susan Jones, event sponsors, participants, donors and volunteers for their outstanding support of the 3rd annual EPIC WALK for Cancer Care. $269,332.42 was raised in 2015 - funds that benefit the Ottawa Regional Cancer Foundation and the Queensway Carleton Hospital Foundation.

Over the last three years, more than $839,000 has been raised through the EPIC WALK. Thank you for your extremely generous support!

“Inventory levels continued to decline; by over 4 per cent since last month, bringing the Ottawa resale market into balanced territory,” says Oikle.

“Cumulative days on market increased slightly to 93 days, up from 89 days in August.

In addition, the average sale price remains steady.”

The average sale price of a residential-class property sold in September in the Ottawa area was $385,142, an

increase of 0.5 per cent over September 2014. The average sale price for a condominiumclass property was $257,303, an increase of 1.3 per cent over September 2014. The Board cautions that average sale price information can be useful in establishing trends over time but should not be used as an indicator that specific properties have increased or decreased in value. The average sale price is calculated

based on the total dollar volume of all properties sold.

“The highest concentration of properties sold continues to be in the $300,000 to $400,000 price range, followed closely, again, by the $200,000 to $300,000 range,” says Oikle.

“In addition to residential and condominium sales, OREB members assisted clients with renting 250 properties in September, and over 2,300 since the beginning of the year.”

Catholic school board recognized as ‘digital ecosystems’ leader Erin McCracken erin.mccracken@metroland.com

Kaylee Mak-Lin doesn’t know what she wants to be when she grows up, but she knows technology will be a big part of her future career.

“I want to learn how to be an expert at (using technology),” said the Grade 5 student at St. Thomas More Catholic elementary school in Hunt Club Park. “I want to help people with viruses.

I hear a lot of people are getting them now.”

She’s only 11, but already she can work Google Chromebooks, tablets and has created a computer game.

She even helps her parents with technology from time to time.

“Sometimes they need help printing a picture,” said Kaylee, who has her teachers to thank for her digital fluency.

The Ottawa Catholic School Board has been on a five-year mission to transform its 83 schools into ‘digital ecosystems,’ which is the reason why the school board received special recognition from the Canadian Education Association during a ceremony at St. Thomas More on Sept. 24.

Through the initiative, teachers were each provided with laptops, classrooms were equipped with LCD projectors and interactive whiteboards, policies were upgraded, libraries were converted into tech-friendly learning commons, and an interactive digital citizenship program was launched to teach students to use technology responsibly.

Technology did not drive the transformation. Rather, technology served as a tool to support, enhance and ac-

celerate learning, said Denise Andre, the board’s director of education.

“You don’t start with the device,” she said. “You start with, ‘What is it I need to teach the student?’ and then, ‘How can I best use the technology to support that?’”

The initiative came at a financial cost, made possible through seed funding from the Ministry of Education, and by saving money through several changes, including the closure of the board’s central library at St. John XXIII elementary school in Nepean and instead connecting its libraries online.

The board also stopped an expensive Grade 5 robotics program field trip, and also turned to web-based resources in place of some non-fiction materials.

“We were channeling the money into digital resources instead of textbooks,” said Andre, who couldn’t provide the pricetag of the digital overhaul. “We still believe in fiction and reading but we wouldn’t be buying textbooks that would be out of date” in two to three years.

The Canadian Education Association was “so impressed” with the school board’s transformation that it was chosen from among 35 school districts across the country to take part in a $50,000 three-month “Innovation that Sticks” national case study.

Representatives will be visiting schools throughout Ottawa to learn how the digital transformation was accomplished across the school board.

“I can assure you, what you’ve accomplished is very significant, and not only significant, but actually rather quite unique in Canada,”

said Ron Canuel, association president.

Tammy Doyle, a Grade 1 teacher at St. Thomas More, said using technology to enhance learning is essential to preparing students for the jobs of today and the jobs of tomorrow that don’t yet exist.

“If you want improvement and you want to prepare students for today then you have to be a forward thinker,” she said.

Last year, her Grade 1 students connected globally with an at-risk class of Grade 10 students at St. Pius X high school in Nepean.

They were tasked with writing narrative stories and the Grade 1s would provide feedback in real time using Google Drive, an online system that stores digital information.

The Grade 10s could also speak with and see the younger students by using Google Hangouts, a text, talk and video communications service that connects individuals or groups over computers and mobile devices.

Once the stories were written, the older students used green-screen technology to craft movie trailers that they could tweet out and share with their parents.

Through the experience, the high school students became much more engaged learners, said Doyle.

“So that’s creating connected, creative, collaborative students,” she said.

“Think about going into a job and having that skill set already. You’re a risk-taker, you’re a communicator, you’re a collaborator, you’re a problem solver.

“What employer does not want that?”

ERIN MCCRACKEN/METROLAND

Tammy Doyle, a Grade 1 teacher at St. Thomas More Catholic elementary school in Hunt Club Park, watches one of her former students, Alexa Connolly, now in Grade 2, play a computer game and, at the same time, learn how to code on a school tablet on Sept. 24.

The Canadian Education Association will spend the next three months studying how the Ottawa Catholic School Board is using technology at all of its schools to enhance learning.

Drama ensues over drawing that vanishes

E

merson was raging mad. He was thumping around the kitchen, arms waving, and his face was the colour of his flaming red hair.

“It was right there, I tell ya,” he said, stabbing his finger on top of a pile of notepaper. “I accidentally folded down a corner of the sheet, and I put it into this stack of papers to smooth it out, and I haven’t touched it since. Someone has deliberately taken it out of there, and it sure wasn’t me.”

It had darkened enough that night in late September, that Mother had lit the coal oil lamps and one sat at either end of the old pine table. With the exception of Father, who as usual was sitting in front of the Findlay Oval in his rocking chair with his feet up on the oven door, we five children were

MARY COOK Memories occupied with our favourite pastimes. Mother was working on her scrap books, Everett was making a new sling shot, Earl was carving some animal from a piece of smooth wood he had found, and Audrey was attempting to teach me once again how to make French knots on the end of a flour bag tea towel.

Emerson had been working on yet another one of his crazy drawings of a building with glass walls and an el-

evator going up the outside.

He had drawn and erased the one sheet, and he claimed he had accidentally turned down the top right corner.

To straighten it out he had tucked into the big pile of sheets already full of his crazy ideas of how his buildings were going to look when he became famous.

And now the sheet was gone. Into thin air.

And he knew for a fact that one of us sitting around

the table had taken it out of the pile for spite!

“And it was my best drawing yet,” he roared. “I even had glass doors on the building. This was going to be a building like no one has ever seen before, and someone in this very room has taken it right out of this pile of papers.”

And he closed his fist and banged it down on the pile of sheets before him.

Nobody paid him any heed. Emerson was always ranting about something, and it often had to do with his crazy drawings put to the paper tablets Mother bought for him on the one-cent sale at the Rexall Drug Store in Renfrew.

“Hours of work I put into that drawing,” he said. It was amazing to me how no one paid him any heed. Father never took his eyes off the Ottawa Farm Journal, Mother continued to cut pieces out of the Philadelphia Enquirer and paste them into her scrap book, and Everett and Earl kept right on doing what they were doing.

Finally, Mother suggested he start at the top of the pile of papers and work his way to the bottom, just in case that particular sheet somehow got tucked into the stack. Emerson said he had done that and the drawing was gone.

“Gone, I tell you! Gone! And when I find out who took it out of

this pile (and he pounded the stack again for good measure) he’ll pay dearly.”

STIFF HANDS

The evening was wearing on, and my fingers were stiff from holding the needle and the embroidery cotton trying desperately to master the French knot, which as far as

I knew I would never be as clever as my sister Audrey, and trying to teach me the fine art of embroidery was a complete waste of her time

I was concerned was a lost cause. I knew I would never be as clever as my sister Audrey, and trying to teach me the fine art of embroidery was a complete waste of her time.

I forced a yawn and asked my sister if we could put the embroidery away, and maybe take a look through the brand new Eaton’s catalogue, which had just come.

It was sitting on the top of the ice box, and this time of year I spent many a happy hour going through the thick

catalogue working my way from the corsets in the front, right through to the cream separators in the back.

Audrey brought it to the table, put it in front of me, and told me to start where ever I wanted. I decided to flip to the Christmas section...toys...candies... girl’s pretty clothes. Well!

What I found, smack in the middle of the catalogue was Emerson’s missing drawing!

There it was, as large as life.

Emerson saw it at the same time. He slapped his forehead, his face turned even redder if that was possible. And in a voice barely heard, admitted to putting it in the middle of Eaton’s catalogue to straighten out the page that had a corner fold.

Gentle Earl demanded an apology, Everett put a wad of paper wet with spit in his new sling shot and hit Emerson dead on, Father said a swear word in German, Audrey rolled her eyes, and Mother closed her scrap book, let out a long sigh, and ordered us all to bed.

Another exciting night at Northcote had come to an end.

Robbery charges laid Ottawa police have laid charges after five separate robbery investigations.

On Sept. 15, at about 2 a.m., a male and a female suspect entered a convenience store situated along the 0-100 block of Tartan Drive in Barrhaven.

A demand was made for cash and cigarettes. The female suspect indicated she had a knife though none was seen. The suspects fled with an undisclosed quantity of money and cigarettes. There were no injuries.

Tips to avoid hazards of tree cutting The Ministry of Labour reports that in the past four years, nine people died and 67 were critically injured in Ontario while working on trees, as a result of unsafe work practices.

Trees have no shortage of hazards associated with them—beetles, storms, brittle branches, the propensity of birds, raccoons and other wildlife who make trees their home. A compromised tree is full of surprises.

Professional arborists rely on their formal training and field experience to undertake a detailed diagnostic process and identify risks before making the cut—especially important with ash trees infested by the ubiquitous Emerald Ash Borer and whose limbs and trunks break in unpredictable ways.

The International Society of Arboriculture warns homeowners about the dangers of hiring workers without experience who buy chainsaws and market themselves as professional tree trimmers in what even certified and veteran arborists call a dangerous profession. Fly-by-night operators eager to make a quick dollar close their eyes to the fact that tree cutting is a serious trade, supported by colleges and private companies offering training and apprenticeship programs.

“Homeowners need to know who’s in their backyard” says Stephen McQuigge, a member of the Board of Directors, ISAO. “Consumers need to know who’s in their backyard. They need to front-load the question, “Do you have the credentials to prove you’re competent to perform this work? What is your knowledge, training and experience? When the fire department, police, EMS and MOL are standing in your back yard, it’s a lousy time to figure out whether your contractor is insured and competent to perform the job.”

The important thing for homeowners to know is that not everyone who claims to be a qualified arborist in fact is one - putting homeowners

at risk of injury, fatalities, and personal liability.

Surges in demand, the result of pests like the Emerald Ash Borer, tornadoes and inclement weather, combined with long waiting periods for tree trimming and removal, have given rise to unqualified people promoting themselves to do the work.

clients were satisfied.

Ask for written estimates from more than one company, bearing in mind that the right skills

and equipment, and proper insurance, might cost more but is well worth the investment.

QUALIFICATIONS

“If you’re having work that is risky done on your property, take the right steps to reduce the impact on your home,” advises Steve Kee, a director at the Insurance Bureau of Canada. “By checking to see if the business is registered with the Workplace Safety and Insurance Board, and if it carries workers’ compensation on its employees, you’re protecting yourself.”

Tips to reduce your risk The arborist profession is not regulated, which means the onus for hiring a reputable company and experienced tree cutter rests with the homeowner. Here are several ways you can look for barometers of competency: Inquire about the length of time the company or individual has been in this business.

Request details on the company’s and/or tree trimmer’s health and safety record.

Ask for a copy of the firm’s WSIB clearance certificate number and other applicable liability insurance, and check to ensure it is in good standing. If you are hiring a self-employed individual, find out what type of insurance the worker has through the WSIB or through another insurance provider.

Find out what licenses, qualifications or certifications the individual has for this work.

What education and training, and in particular safety training, the individual has completed?

Does the person have the right skills for the job?

There is a big difference between cutting a tree at ground level, and removing limbs from the canopy.

Mental Illness Caregivers Association holds family summit Mark down Saturday, October 24, to attend the third annual Mental Illness Caregivers Association (MICA) Summit at Glen Cairn United Church, 140 Abbeyhill Drive, in Kanata.

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 am to 4 pm.

Pre-registration is required, however, and space is limited so, if you plan to attend, please register before October 9 at www.micaontario.com.

Paul McIntyre, president of MICA and a caregiver himself says, “Every caregiver asks the same questions: Where can I go for support? What financial help is available?

How do I keep myself 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.”

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 (CADTH), 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 frontline and often only touchstone, advocate, and support to help their loved one face the challenges of living with mental illness. daily challenges

Caregivers themselves can feel overwhelmed by the emotional, physical, and financial demands of managing the daily challenges; working towards recovery; and planning for the future.

MICA, established in 2008, is an association of family, friends, and consumers of mental health services who provide mutual support to manage the effects of serious and persistent mental illness.

In recent years, the organization has worked across East-

ern Ontario to identify priority issues and stimulate action.

In 2012, MICA conducted a “Quality of Life” study with caregivers and service providers in Smiths Falls, Cornwall, Pembroke, and Ottawa. Change can be slow to effect but, since the second “Roadmap for Change” Summit held a year ago, project Champions and their teams have made significant progress in priority areas. MICAsponsored events such as the Family Support and Education session in Smiths Falls; the “What happens when I am gone” workshop in Cornwall, and the Disability Benefits workshop in Renfrew County are making a difference in the Eastern Ontario community.

MICA’s 2015 “Families Building Partnerships” Summit is an opportunity to learn more about the “Roadmap for Change” initiatives and progress being made by family members and their partner institutions, for caregivers to

connect with other caregivers, and to contribute ideas that will help create a better quality of life for themselves and their loved ones.

For more information about MICA or to register for the Summit, please visit the MICA Web site at www.micaontario.com. For more details about MICA or the Summit, call 613-860-7800. The event is free, but registration is required prior to October 9. Refreshments and a light lunch are included.

MICA’s “Families Building Partnerships” Summit is being hosted this year by The Oasis in Kanata at Glen Cairn United Church, 140 Abbeyhill Drive in Kanata. The Oasis in Kanata is an outreach program of Glen Cairn United Church that provides information and support to caregivers of people with symptoms of mental illness.

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 Aries, it may be challenging to express your true feelings, especially when you fear what others may think. Just do what feels comfortable to you.

TAURUS – Apr 21/May 21 Take a sentimental journey with a loved one, Taurus. You never know what examining your emotions will uncover, and you will get to spend quality time together.

GEMINI – May 22/Jun 21 Gemini, you can strike up a conversation with just about anyone this week. Your gift for gab makes you a fun person to have around and a welcome member to any new group.

CANCER – Jun 22/Jul 22 Cancer, someone may catch you off guard this week and you don’t have your go-to plan in place. Worry not, as you will rebound quickly and bounce back in a big way.

LEO – Jul 23/Aug 23 Leo, it may seem like everyone is hanging on every word you say this week. Don’t worry about performing, just continue to do what gravitates people toward you.

VIRGO – Aug 24/Sept 22 Virgo, although you’re not a big fan of the spotlight, this week you will be asked to handle a situation on center stage. You just may enjoy the situation, so don’t fret about it.

LIBRA – Sept 23/Oct 23 Libra, share your long-term goals with colleagues and you may find some unexpected allies. Support can only help your efforts even further.

SCORPIO – Oct 24/Nov 22 Scorpio, set personal feelings aside when dealing with professional matters. Allowing emotion to get in the way of your goals will only end up affecting you.

SAGITTARIUS – Nov 23/Dec 21 Sagittarius, this is a great time to try something new. Whether it’s a new food or a new experience you’ve been looking to try, dive right in and enjoy the excitement.

CAPRICORN – Dec 22/Jan 20 Capricorn, expect to be excited by a budding relationship in the weeks ahead. Open up to friends or family members so you can share this positive development with loved ones.

AQUARIUS – Jan 21/Feb 18 Waiting patiently this week will not get the job done, Aquarius.

You may have to be more assertive to get things done. Others will understand and prove helpful.

PISCES – Feb 19/Mar 20 Pisces, a problem at work seems tough to crack. Take your time and try a new approach, and you will be happy with the results.
