adam.kveton@metroland.com

News – Matt Muirhead, runner up for councillor of Kanata North Ward in last month’s municipal election, has agreed to drop plans to file a defamation lawsuit against Kanata North Coun.

Marianne Wilkinson.

The pair met three days after the Oct. 27 election

and agreed to focus their attentions on serving the community.

“We have been friends for many years,” they said in a joint statement released on Nov. 3, “and we agreed that maintaining that friendship and our respect for each other is what matters now.”

News - This year’s Remembrance Day ceremony in Kanata will be a special one for local veteran John Gooch.

After 18 years, this will be his last time organizing the event, and the first in 18 years where he will not be performing the service himself.

Gooch, a veteran of the

Gooch described his life during the war as a tough experience, but a good one.

“It made a man of me right away,” he said.

After moving to Glen Cairn in 1972, Gooch was eventually asked by the Kanata legion to spearhead the creation of the Kanata Cenotaph.

Art show aims to introduce original works Laura Mueller

laura.mueller@metroland.com

Arts - The annual Gift of Art show and sale will pay tribute to an icon of Kanata’s art scene: the late John Mlacak.

The painter and founding father of Kanata died Sept. 19, but the legacy of art he left behind will be on display and for sale in a private room at the Beaverbrook library branch in the building named after him, the Mlacak Centre at 2500 Campeau Dr. Mlacak, who was 78 when he passed away, was known for his community activism and his political career as former reeve of March township. Mlacak’s vision for a “garden city” where the homes fit into nature is evident in his landscape oil paintings.

It is the last scheduled public showing of Mlacak’s work at this time.

Along with Mlacak’s works, 27 artists from across the city will display and sell paintings, textile works, photographs and sculptures in the upper halls of the Mlacak Centre on Saturday, Nov. 15 and Sunday Nov. 16 from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. both days.

It’s an occasion that both new and seasoned artists hope will introduce newbies to the world of original art.

Kanata Lakes artist Meghan Thomas will show and sell her watercolour oil paintings at the Gift of Art on Nov. 15 and 16.

Meghan Thomas, a Kanata Lakes resident who will exhibit her landscape oil paintings at the show for the first time, says many friends in her age group didn’t know that they could get a piece of original, oneof-a-kind artwork for around the same price as a print from a chain retailer.

“In my age group – people in their ’30s and ’40s – people would buy something to decorate their walls at HomeSense,” Thomas said. “They could get something for the same price at this show.”

4 Kanata Kourier-Standard - Thursday, November 6, 2014

The reconciliation comes after Muirhead’s election-night declaration that he would level a defamation suit against Wilkinson in response to the “vitriolic and hateful lies” said about him and his family that he believed Wilkinson had spread.

When asked about Muirhead’s threat to slap her with a lawsuit, Wilkinson responded on election night, saying, “I’m sorry he is taking that viewpoint, but I don’t have anything I regret saying,” and that he has no basis for a slander suit.

Muirhead is now saying he is satisfied that Wilkinson is not the source of the defamatory statements witnesses said they heard.

“I will not be pursuing any sort of suit,” said Muirhead in an interview with the Kourier-Standard.

“The stuff that I had heard was very damaging for me professionally, and that was my primary concern, but after talking with Coun. Wilkinson … we know that some people had said some things, but I am satisfied that it was not the councillor.”

The understanding between Muirhead and Wilkinson comes after a, “nice, long chat,” said Muirhead, in which the two renewed their faith in each other, and turned their attentions towards serving the community.

Wilkinson said she had been disappointed that Muirhead would announce his plans for a defamation lawsuit before speaking with her, but that she was happy they could come to an agreement.

“I’m just glad that we’ve got it behind us and we can use our time to be doing things in the community and not

wasting them on arguing and fighting each other,” she said in an interview with the Kourier-Standard.

“The point of it is that we both do things in the community and it would be stupid if we didn’t work together on them, and neither of us are stupid,” said Wilkinson.

Muirhead agreed, saying, “Putting this behind us and working together for the betterment of the community and the future of the community is probably the best choice that we could make.”

“We know that some people had said some things, but I am satisfied that it was not the councillor.”

Matt Muirhead, runner-up council candidate

Though Muirhead said he remains concerned that defamatory statements were said about him, he hopes it was all a misunderstanding, and that, for now, he will “let that sleeping dog lie.”

Wilkinson said there could have indeed been people saying defamatory things about Muirhead, but that people had been saying negative things about her as well, and that these things can happen in an election.

“You’ve got to put your personal things aside a little bit,” she said.

Muirhead said his conversation with Wilkinson has restored his respect for her and his belief “she is a good councillor and the best to serve this community at this time.”

Second World War veteran recalls ‘a lot of close calls’ Erin McCracken erin.mccracken@metroland.com

News - Robert Henley gently turns the black paper pages of his photo album, and fondly thumbs the sepiatoned images that are as clear as his memories of the Second World War. “That’s an airplane smashed. You saw lots of those,” he said.

Images of downed planes, burned fuelling trucks, barren streets of wartorn Paris, France and emaciated bodies of concentration camp victims depict some of the nightmares Henley witnessed.

But there were also happy times, evident in the smiles that spread across the faces of Henley and his fellow fresh-faced young airmen who stare out from the photographs.

“I was not supposed to (have a camera), but I did. I had it sent (by my mother) in a food box,” he said.

The 94-year-old, who moved into the Perley and Rideau Veterans’ Health Centre with his wife Terri earlier this year, left his family’s wheat and cattle farm in Harris, Sask. outside Saskatoon to join the air force at 19 in 1939.

Like the other dozen veterans who

were invested into the Order of St. George at the Perley and Rideau Veterans’ Health Centre on Monday in recognition of their service to Canada, Henley saw the horrors of war as a young man in his 20s.

He lost friends in the fighting.

He worked around the clock overseeing his men as they patched up Spitfire airplanes and sent them back into the skies over Europe.

He ran for cover as searing hot shrapnel fell down from the sky like lethal rain during the Normandy campaign in 1944.

“If you’ve never prayed you pray at that time. Somebody heard me. Maybe St. George,” he said with a smile.

“There were a lot of close calls.”

And like many of the veterans who survived the battles and came home to their families and the country they fought for, Henley doesn’t describe himself as a brave man when faced with one adversity after another.

When he first received his order to join the fighting overseas, Henley didn’t feel scared or nervous.

“I was happy. There were other people who would’ve liked to have had it, but I got it,” he said. “You could

see the world. You don’t expect to get killed. You don’t even think about that.

At least, I didn’t.”

During the invasion into Normandy, France, Henley remembers flying across the English Channel on a Douglas DC-6 transport aircraft.

“When we crossed the ocean in order to get to Normandy, you looked down from the airplane and there didn’t seem to be any space left,” he said. “The whole area was filled up with ships. It was the most remarkable scene I’ve ever seen in my life – to see, for 50 miles across, there were ships, ships, ships.

“And you can imagine every ship has got so many people. It was absolutely fantastic.”

As his aircraft came in for a landing, Henley could see the beaches of Normandy. The ground troops had quickly disembarked from transport boats to move inland to push back the enemy forces.

Henley’s aircraft landed three miles in from the beaches where a makeshift landing strip had been set up on a farmer’s field.

He and his crew didn’t have long to wait before the British Spitfires came in for repairs, refueling and to reload their single cannons and six machine guns with ammunition.

Ground crews never knew if a pilot would return. Henley said three or four a week didn’t come back.

“You get to know somebody and then he doesn’t show up. You say, ‘Hope to see you,’ and that was it.

What can you do?

“If you don’t like it, there’s no place to hide. You do your job.”

No one slept much during the Normandy campaign. Henley said he remembers pulling in 23-and-a-halfhour days.

“There were times we didn’t sleep at all,” he said of working around the clock during the invasion, which launched on June 6, 1944 and continued until that August when the Allies broke through France and moved into Belgium.

“I was right there,” Henley said.

“War is not a pleasant thing when you’re in it. As long as you come back, that’s the main thing.”

His eyes become red with unshed tears at the memory of his older brother, an army captain, who was leading troops into battle in Italy when he was killed by a sniper’s bullet. He was due to return to Britain the next day.

When word came that the war was coming to an end, there was little celebrating where Henley was stationed in Hamburg, Germany.

“It was not like in the cities,” he said. “We knew it was over before it was over.”

Happy tears also spring to his eyes when he thinks back to the day he returned home a changed man after years of overseas service.

“It was fantastic,” he said.

Robert Henley, 94, a resident of the Perley and Rideau Veterans’ Health Centre vividly recalls the memories behind each of the photos he took when he was an airman working overseas on Spitfire aircraft during the Second World War. Henley was among 12 veterans of the Second World War and Korean War who were recognized on Nov. 3 for their service to Canada and invested into the Order of St. George.

His parents, brothers and sisters and the family’s neighbours all gathered around him at the train station.

His younger sister Alice who had been just 14 years old when he left home had become a young woman of 17.

“You could hardly recognize her,” he said wistfully.

Henly knows many of the war stories will be lost to younger generations as veterans pass on, taking their memories with them.

For that reason, it’s crucial for remaining veterans to share their experiences and their reasons for wanting to help defend Canada, he said.

“It’s important to pass this on,” said Henley, who retired from the air force as a major in 1969. “That (veteran) has been in a special place for everybody. “You would not be here if not for us.”

Re: “Canada’s dwindling blood supply prompts urgent appeal for donors,” Oct. 9, Kourier-Standard.

Kudos to Metroland reporter Erin McCracken for trying to spread the word about blood donations.

I have to be sceptical of the seriousness of the situation since Canadian Blood Services will not take my

blood due to me spending a year in the United Kingdom back in 1990.

At least annually I hear this request and call them up, only to be told I’m not eligible.

I do not have many donations on my record because I had a painful donation experience and had only just restarted my donations when I was told that I couldn’t.

a few times over that year but still they won’t budge.

Though I can’t speak for the rest of my family who were there at the same time, I suspect the “system” has lost quite a few donations over the past 24 years.

If the situation were as dire as they seem to indicate, they should either take my donation and list it “high risk” or test my blood to see what Mad Cow is hiding in it.

A fresh start at city hall

I

t would be easy to suggest on the heels of the Oct. 27 election that Ottawa residents cast a ballot for more of the same.

Upon closer examination, however, there are indications that the latest city council will be nearly as different from the class of 2010-14 as that group was from the Larry O’Brien years.

Four years ago, there were 10 new councillors elected, including six who toppled incumbents. Eight of those 2010 rookies were re-elected in 2014, some by substantial margins (Tim Tierney, who edged out Beacon Hill-Cyrville incumbent Michel Bellemare by less than 200 votes in his first campaign captured 82 per cent of the vote this time around). These councillors won’t need time to find their feet next month when the new term gets underway; they’ll hit the ground running.

Six veteran councillors stepped down ahead of the election – Peter Hume, Diane Holmes, Maria McRae, Rainier Bloess, Doug Thompson, and Steve Desroches – taking with them a combined 124 years worth of political experience. Their knowledge and wisdom

will be missed around the council table.

Eight brand new councillors will join the ranks of those returning, and will inject new ideas and bring fresh attitudes to debates at city hall. Some, such as Catherine McKenney and Michael Qaqish, have worked at city hall for a number of years, while others will face a steeper learning curve.

Those factors alone will shape the face of Ottawa’s municipal government in important ways.

New alliances will be formed and old positions will be discarded.

Yet beyond the ranks of councillors, another factor will loom large over the next four years: Jim Watson’s significant mandate. It could be argued the mayor faced little in the way of competition, but that didn’t stop Ottawans from voting for him (he received 58,000 more votes in 2014 than he did in 2010). He’s been re-elected to carry on the work he started during the last term, and he’ll have every right to push that vision through.

While there will be 15 familiar faces returning city hall this time around, it should be anything but dull.

Doing our own thing at the game

W

ith the season almost over, I finally got around to checking out the Ottawa RedBlacks and their new stadium. I think it would be a good thing if the CFL survives in Ottawa, and wonder if it will, given its past history.

This season is a good test and so far the results are encouraging. The team won only two games at home, yet the fans turned out faithfully and cheered enthusiastically. That’s a good sign, especially when you assume that future teams won’t be as bad.

The stadium itself is impressivelooking from the outside, although there are those who think TD could lower its signage profile somewhat.

Getting in and out is not difficult,

CHARLES GORDON Funny Town and will be easier in the future when all the construction is finished.

Ease of getting in does not include getting into the Glebe from the outside. More and more people will learn that trying it with a car is an hour of your life you will never get back (someday Bronson Avenue will have its own place of honour in the Museum of Impossible Streets).

have liked, but that seems to go with the territory. The link between football and booze is interesting.

Anyway, from all accounts, there are places you can sit to get away from all that.

At least the drunks were friendly.

Also, the stadium atmosphere was fine, staff was friendly and helpful, and the lines for various things moved along all right. Security was not oppressive, despite recent events.

I liked that the crowd did its own thing. Frequently, they were urged on scoreboards to MAKE SOME NOISE. They ignored that and made noise when they felt like. For some reason, the French word “mouchoir,� used when a penalty flag was dropped and announced, invariably inspired a chant of “moooo-shwaw!�

Hard to imagine that happening anywhere else. It’s an Ottawa thing.

That’s what cities need more of – their own thing. So I welcomed the lumberjack mascot, Big Joe, and even the oh-so-Ottawa politically correct discussion about what his name should be.

And if you want a distinctly local flavour, how could you not love the cheesy touchdown celebration, which consists of the Algonquin Loggersports Team cutting a piece off a log with a chainsaw. Are you going to see that anywhere else?

A lot of smart things have been done to give the Redblacks a local identity, none more inspiring than the decision to hire local legend Lucky Ron Burke to sing in honour of the team during one of the breaks.

That’s what the fans want, more Lucky Ron. Also, more chainsaw action and fewer mouchoirs.

More wins will help, and it’s

likely that people will figure out how to get to and from the games more easily. Ottawa fans are notoriously fickle (remember the Lynx?) but they appear to be wanting reasons to come back next year. So there’s hope.

Art show features Mlacak paintings Continued from page 3

Dozens of original pieces of all sizes will be one sale, with prices ranging from $50 to $3,000. Taxes are included in the listed prices and payment plans are available, said Judi Miller, a long-time gallery member and organizer of the Gift of Art show. She will again be showcasing her textile works.

Miller and another artist, Wendy Russell, said the show has been good to the gallery’s members over the years by introducing them to new customers and giving them a venue to make sales in the important season leading up to Christmas.

“It’s one of the few places we get to show a large body of work,” Miller said.

It’s also one of the few times the artists can get feedback from a large number of potential buy-

ers who are ready to offer praise – and criticism, said Russell.

“Your family will always be like, ‘Oh, that’s nice,’” she said. “But it’s nice when somebody (else) says they like it. You get a lot of honest truth, too.”

And for art buyers, it means they can leave with a story directly from the artist about the motivation and inspiration behind the piece, Russell said.

The Gift of Art show has supported Hospice Care Ottawa in the past. This year, some of the gallery’s members collaborated to adorn small decorative houses that will be sold at the pop-up shop as part of the Homes for the Holidays tour event Nov. 14, 15 and 16.

For more information about the show, visit www. kanatagallery.ca, or drop into the gallery itself, beside the library branch at the Mlacak Centre.

Children and sports – too much, too soon

W

hen my kids roll in the door after school at 3 p.m., they have a single mission: Go outside and play.

Homework, music practice, television, even snacks take a backseat to the basketball net in the driveway and the soccer ball in the grass. Over the past six years or so, I’ve signed them up for everything from ice hockey and swimming lessons, to soccer, basketball and gymnastics.

But last year, after spending so much money, and seeing very little interest, I stopped registering them for things. I was sick of fighting with them.

In the back of my head, this triggered panic.

I watched their peers running from the hockey arena to the pool to dance class three times per week. What if, by relenting to their request that they “didn’t want to sign up for anything,� I was somehow sacrificing their sporting future?

But here’s the thing, my boys – now eight and nine-years-old – are among the healthiest

I know. And they love sports. They spend the bulk of their free time kicking, hitting, bouncing balls, climbing ropes, playing driveway hockey, pick-up tennis, swimming in lakes in the summer, kayaking and skiing.

Recently, anticipating the inevitable cold weather that may limit their outdoor running around time,I registered them for a free multisport program at a local gym. (Yes, free. Like, really, really free. Like, they don’t even need a special pair of shoes or any equipment). And they love it almost as much as they love playing outside.

That’s when I realized, it’s not sports they

hate, it’s organized sports. And, according to author Luis Fernando Llosa, they’re not alone. “Between five and nine, even to age 11, is a critical period when kids learn how to adapt, improve flexibility, self-control, learn how to socialize with other kids and self-direction, and they’re not learning that in organized sports,� says Llosa. “These are the skills they learn while playing in a park, building a fort, trying to figure something out, playing pick-up hockey on a pond or in a cul de sac, negotiating with that kid that owns the ball.� “Kids don’t want to sign up for anything; they just want to play,� he says.

Llosa, a reporter with Sports Illustrated, is the co-author of Beyond Winning: Smart Parenting in a Toxic Sports Environment. He also co-founded Whole Child Sports, which offers a series of workshops for parents and coaches on how and why competition and organization are ruining sports for kids and what to do about it.

On Friday, Nov. 7, Llosa will outline the ideas in the book in a lecture at St. Paul’s University, followed by a series of workshops for parents on Saturday, Nov. 8 at Trille de Bois public school in Vanier.

His message to parents, at the most fundamental level is this: “Kids are doing too much, too soon when it comes to sports.�

For the past several decades, says Llosa, parents have been pushing their kids into organized sports at ever younger ages, which he correlates to a phenomenal rise in youth sports injuries, aggression in kids and, perhaps worst of all, an eventual disinterest in sports from youth old enough to make their own decisions.

“By the age of 13, 70 per cent of kids involved in organized sports quit,� says Llosa. “If you’re a parent and you’re signing your kids up for hockey at five, the likelihood of them quitting by 13 is three out of four.�

Llosa, a father of five, cites a few reasons why kids get put off. For one, they’re not given enough breathing space to grow physically and emotionally when their calendars are overwhelmed with too much activity.

But perhaps most devastating, most toxic for kids that are pushed into organized sports too early, is the out-to-win attitude of their parents.

PARENTS

“The moment the parent gets involved, it becomes about them,� he says, which diminishes intrinsic motivation for the kids and can even negatively impact their self-esteem. “When a child is young, they have difficulty separating their performance from their selfworth.�

Not to mention, adds Llosa, that children forced to listen to cheers and direction from even the best-intentioned parents and coaches, will ultimately turnout to be lousy athletes. “They will not be creative athletes when they’re older if they’ve always been told what to do,� he says.

So I’m feeling okay about giving my kids a chance to breathe, play outside, and hang out in a local gym twice per week this winter, because if I really want them to develop a lifelong love of sports, according to Llosa, it’s best for me to just keep my mouth shut and let the kids play.

He recalls choosing the stone for the cenotaph from Walter Baker Park, and planting the 22 trees 18 years ago.

During that time, Gooch has worked to spread knowledge about the Second World War, especially when it comes to having students participate.

“I am extremely proud of the park and I’m very proud of the legion and it’s been quite an exciting episode,” he said.

“Some of the people that have been going to the cenotaph on a regular basis, they were school kids, and now they are in their 20s, and it’s kind of nice because we want the young people to remember the Second World War,” said Gooch.

of war, he said, or when meeting “another old soldier.”

This year’s Remembrance Day may be particularly poignant for people, he said, with terrorism continuing around the world, and at home on Parliament Hill on Oct. 22.

Cpl. Nathan Cirillo was shot and killed by a gunman while guarding the National War Memorial. Gooch said there will be no special recognition of Cirillo, saying that particular soldiers are not singled out during Remembrance Day ceremonies, but that the troops from Petawawa will be acknowledged for their work overseas.

Gooch said that strong participation in the Kanata Remembrance Day ceremony has been wonderful, and that he hopes students especially continue to attend.

The Kanata legion is once again holding the local Remembrance Day ceremony on Nov. 11, with more than 1,000 people expected to attend.

The event begins with a parade, starting from Earl of March Secondary School and leaving at around 10:30 a.m. for the Kanata Cenotaph located at the south end of

Colchester Square.

Troops from Garrison Petawawa, a firemen’s band and the Maple Leaf Band from the Kanata legion will be taking part in the parade, said event organizer John Gooch.

The parade will be followed by a ceremony conducted by Rev. Craig Bowers from St. Paul’s Anglican Church, with students from Holy Trinity Catholic High School singing, and dozens of wreaths laid by groups such as the various cadet corps, the Girl Guides, the Masons, the Kanata-Hazeldean Lions Club and many more.

There will be refreshments at the Legion at 70 Hines Rd. afterwards.

The event generally attracts more than 1,000 people, said Gooch.

Local mom wins environmental superstar award Adam Kveton adam.kveton@metroland.com

Community - Some people have the gift of a green thumb, while others, like Jenna Gonzalez, have the gift of a green mum.

This October, Walmart recognized Gonzalez’ mom, Val Collins, as their Mom of the Year Environmental Superstar – one of five Mom of the Year awards given out annually across Canada.

Collins had no idea her daughter had nominated her, and Gonzalez had actually forgotten about the competition as well, said Collins.

“It was something that she did as a spur of the moment thing,” she said.

“I was gobsmacked,” said Collins when she found out she had won on Oct. 14.

The award comes along with a $10,000 cash prize, as well as least $10,000 to donate Collins’ charities of choice.

Collins has decided to split the donation between the Kanata Food Cupboard and the Kanata North Community Garden, but hopes to have them both work together on a project that draws on some of Collins’ own community science and environmental work.

“Iridescent spectacle that drenches the senses in light and sound. It is something for the kids and also for grown-ups. The magic of the theatre, the magic of diversion, the magic that compels one to say ‘ That’s Entertainment’.”

— New York Times

Community members gather at Val Collins’ front-yard community garden in Kanata South several years ago. Collins won Walmart’s Mom of the Year Environmental Superstar award on Oct. 14.

with a theatrical blacklight show in Toronto that was a feast for the eyes. Liberace attended a showing of their original show, Aruba Liberace, and was so impressed he invited Famous People Players to perform with him in Las Vegas. Famous People Players opened in Las Vegas in October 1975; over the subsequent ten years, the company performed with Liberace internationally resulting in a CBC produced documentary, Carnival of the Animals, and a 1984 CBS movie-of-the-week entitled Special People.

On Friday Nov. 14, Famous PEOPLE Players brings their Good Old Rock and Roll show to Centrepointe Theatres.

Creatures of every shape and size will rock and roll with larger than life characters, props, creatures, costumes and sets. Patrons of any age are sure to be inspired and delighted.

“Their talents are resplendent and the show is uniquely original ... allow me to be your newest fan.”

— Steven Spielberg “A stage event so extraordinary you would have to experience it to understand it.”

Founded in 1974, The Famous PEOPLE Players’ company was built with the belief that the disabled must be integrated into society. Based on the spirit of personal development and team achievement, the production began

Collins’ work background is as a science teacher and science engagement professional, she said, bringing science to kids and adults alike through museums in England, Edmonton and Ottawa.

“It’s a mechanism that is going to start to develop smarter people so they can start to develop solutions for issues that we are going to face in the future,” she said of her former career.

Collins has continued to apply that same methodology in retirement, she said, adding that she is busier than ever.

One of her major projects was a community garden inTrailwest, where she used her own front yard to provide gardening space for community members and their kids.

“It was a community experiment,” she said, which she started in 2010.

After finding there was interest in a community garden in the area, she did not get support from the city, and so decided to build garden boxes in her front yard.

The project gave way to many teachable moments, including impromptu lessons to kids who waited for their school bus with their parents near her house.

Collins hopes to a program to have small but intensively planted square foot vegetable gardens for every person who uses the food cupboard’s services to supplement their consumption.

“I’m going around getting interested parties, and the Kanata Food Cupboard is interested in supporting it as well as the Kanata garden, and I’ve spoken with other food banks in the city that are interested,” she said.

“We are going to get everybody who uses food cupboards an opportunity and a network to grow their own food,” said Collins.

She said she hopes to create a strong partnership with the program, and get the most bang for her buck.

Ultimately, Collins said she is trying to pass on an interest in science to others, and show how that interest can help solve problems in their world.

“Science is what makes me tick,” she said. “That’s why I try to do my bit by getting out and engaging people and getting them science excited.”

R0012982402

“One day I saw the bus was late, and the kids were getting a little rambunctious, so I went out and I said, ‘Does anybody know what rhubarb is?’” she said. Soon, parents had armfuls of rhubarb that their children had learned to pick.

One child had shown interest in the spinach plant, and asked what it was. After Collins put a leaf in her mouth to show it was edible, the kids clamoured for a leaf of their own.

While Collins acknowledges spinach has a reputation as being not child friendly, she disagrees.

“I say, kids who plant spinach eat spinach.”

Collins’ community garden was soon overflowing with interested people wanting to take part, and it became a meeting place for adults and their children to learn about gardening.

Though she closed the garden after selling her house, her interest in community gardening continued.

One of the groups that showed

interest in her garden was the Kanata Chinese Seniors Support Centre which was interested in starting a community garden of its own.

With guidance from Collins, the Chinese seniors became one of the founding groups of the Kanata North Community Garden.

Collins’ work extends beyond the garden as well, including a Smart City Science initiative that holds science cafés with special speakers.

Recently, she has been developing another program called the Green Granny. The program, for primary schools, is a half hour assembly to teach students about taking care of the environment through conscious consuming, water conservation and more, led by Collins.

The program is free, she said, and is ready to go. “I’m just working on my costuming,” she said. “I’m going to do an homage to Robin Williams.”

But the biggest project Collins hopes to foster through her $10,000 donation is a joint venture with the Kanata Food Cupboard and the Kanata North Community Garden.

News â&#x20AC;&#x201C; The Ottawa Hospital is appealing for donations to help researchers find new ways of mending the human body.

The foundationâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Tender Loving Research campaign, launched on Oct. 29, aims to raise $50 million over the next three years â&#x20AC;&#x201C; money that will go primarily towards research on regenerative medicine.

By focusing on this emerging field, as well as cancer research, the foundation hopes to one day introduce new drugs, therapies and treatment options for patients.

The money will bolster research already happening on the campuses of the Ottawa Hospital. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Made-in-Ottawa solutions are shaping healthcare in our city and around the world,â&#x20AC;? said foundation president and CEO Tim Kluke in a media release. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Every day, individuals benefit from the research taking place right

here at home. Research improves lives, and saves lives, which is why â&#x20AC;&#x201C; everyone deserves a little TLC.â&#x20AC;?

The Ottawa Hospital is ranked in the top five per cent of research institutes worldwide, thanks to its pioneering work in medical research.

The $50 million the foundation hopes to raise will go towards the purchase of new equipment to stay current in a quickly evolving medical field, as well as the establishment of research chairs to focus on specific elements of the hospitalâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s work.

Ottawa Hospital researcher Dr. Bernard Thebaud specializes in regenerative medicine, a growing field where stem cells â&#x20AC;&#x201C; either the patientâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s own or those of a donor â&#x20AC;&#x201C; are injected to regenerate damaged tissue.

In essence, they can allow the body to heal itself.

Thebaudâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s specialty is working on helping premature infants suffering lung damage â&#x20AC;&#x201C; a common problem for babies of low birth

weight for which there is no cure. â&#x20AC;&#x153;In the lab we found that a certain type of stem cell can repair damaged lungs in experimental models,â&#x20AC;? said Thebaud, adding that clinical trials on actual infants will be the next step.

Clinical trials are also being prepared to study the effects of stem cell therapy on heart disease, hypertension, and septic shock â&#x20AC;&#x201C; the latter being only a few months away.

Clinical trials and the work needed to craft a rationale for the human trial is expensive work, given the amount of people and expertise involved.

Thebaud said the campaign is â&#x20AC;&#x153;timely,â&#x20AC;? given that regenerative medicine is finally becoming a reality after years of animal testing. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The time is right for these therapies to be tested in the clinic,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Over the next five to 10 years, we will see if these cells hold their promise. However, money is needed to get things done in a timely manner.â&#x20AC;?

News - On Nov. 11 each year, Canadians gather at the National War Memorial in Ottawa, standing in collective remembrance of all who have fallen in the military service of their country. The Royal Canadian Legion Dominion Command is proud to organize and conduct this national commemoration on behalf of and for Canadians.

This year, the ceremony will take place at the National War Memorial in Ottawa on Tuesday, Nov. 11.

The national ceremony, which has seen attendance increasing on year basis, involves veterans of all wars and peace support operations, numerous dignitaries, the Canadian Armed Forces, RCMP, members of the diplomatic corps and youth representatives, the National Remembrance Day Ceremony has played a key role in Remembrance for decades. Broadcast nationally and covered by media across the country,

tens of thousands of Canadians choose to show their respect by attending this ceremony each year.

Last year 40,000 attended the national ceremony and numbers are likely to be higher this year following the tragic shooting death of Cpl. Nathan Cirillo as he stood on guard duty at the National War Memorial Oct. 22.

All veterans are welcome to join the Veterans Parade. Please arrive at the form up point, on Wellington Street, corner of Elgin (near the East Block), no later than 10:10 a.m. An OC Transpo bus will be at that location to provide a warm waiting area for those veterans who arrive early. You may also report to the Adam Room, Fairmont Chateau Laurier to wait. The parade will step off at 1030 hours en route to the National War Memorial, arriving at 10:35 a.m.

Tens of thousands of spectators experience the ceremony from all around the National War Memorial, so arriving

early helps to get a good vantage point.

Whatever your position, you can also view the ceremony on the jumbo screens set up around the memorial and the many speakers broadcast the entire ceremony.

The jumbo screens will display the Virtual Wall of Honour and Remembrance before and during the ceremony until 10:30 a.m., just before the arrivals of special guests including the prime minister, the Silver Cross Mother and the Governor General.

Please remember that there are some road closures starting at 7 a.m.

Passholders wishing to lay a wreath must contact Angela Keeling Colkitt at 613-591-3335, ext: 244.

Non-passholders please contact your local branch.

Remembrance Day

November 11 is a day we remember You might think the legacy of World War One hangs on by a tenuous thread â&#x20AC;&#x201D; as sad as it is, there are no longer any living veterans of that war.

But we have the red poppy pins, In Flanders Fields, and countless books and movies to keep the story alive and to remind us of what Canadians won and lost in the conďŹ&#x201A;ict of 1914-1918. Here are a few of the reads that best recount the era, with all its glory and losses.

YOUTH FICTION. The book Road to War: A First World War Girlsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; Diary, 1916-1917 is a ďŹ ctionalized ďŹ rst-person account that makes it real. The author puts a young woman in an active role as a WWI ambulance driver on the French front.

YOUTH NON-FICTION. The Horrible Histories Handbook: Trenches Would You Survive World War One? Is an engaging look at the stark realities of ground warfare with great illustrations.

NON-FICTION. For a Pulitzer-prize winning overview, read The Guns of August: The Outbreak of World War One, by Barbara W. Tuchman. For a contemporary re-examining of Canadaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s role in the conďŹ&#x201A;ict, check out military historian Gwynne Dyerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Canada in the Great Power Game: 19142014. For an interesting twist, try Canadian anthropologist Wade Davisâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; sweeping account of World War One and what it meant for mountaineering; itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s called Into the Silence: The Great War, Mallory, and the Conquest of Everest.

NOVELS. First published in 1920, Erich Maria Remarqueâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s All Quiet on the Western Front has become a classic. For the romantically inclined, Birdsong, by Sebastian Faulks, has been on best book lists for the last 21 years.

Looking at

Sports - Two Orléans skaters, both of whom train out of the national training centre in Calgary, medaled at the International Skating Union Fall World Cup Long Track Selections in October.

It gave them the results they needed to be named to the Canadian team which will compete at four long track speed skating world cups.

Vincent de Haître and Ivanie Blondin, both former Gloucester Concordes who skated out of the Bob McQuarrie rink, won individual events at the selection and were named to the team.

Blondin was named to the team for 1,000-metre, 3,000metre, 5,000-metre and mass start events; de Haître was named for 500-metre, 1,000metre and 1,500-metre events.

Cumberland’s de Haître won the 1,000-metre event on

Oct. 26 at the Calgary Olympic Oval with an impressive performance.

According to Speed Skating Canada, de Haître is the 43rd skater in history to skate the kilometre in under one minute and eight seconds. He finished ahead of current Olympic silver medalist Canadian Denny Morrison. Earlier in the week de Haître won the 1,500-metre event.

“I’m really thankful for the guys in my training group,” De Haître said in a press release.

“They are all very strong and they push me every day, so I have to show up ready to race.”

Blondin, who grew up in Orléans, won the 16-lap mass start race on Oct. 26, one of two races she competed in that day. She also finished second in the 1,000-metre event.

Speed Skating Canada said the mass start events – such as the 16-lap race Blondin won – will get a bigger push and gain

more attention on the World Cup circuit this year because they have been added to the 2018 Olympic medal schedule.

Both Blondin and de Haître represented Canada at the 2014 Olympic Games in Sochi, Russia.

A third Ottawa-born athlete, Lauren McGuire, was also named to the World Cup team for the 3,000-metre event. McGuire was raised in Ottawa and trained with the Ottawa Pacers, a different club than Blondin and de Haître, and is now based in Calgary. She graduated from south Ottawa’s St. Patrick’s High School.

The skaters will represent Canada at the first four World Cup events this year in Obihiro, Japan from Nov. 14 to 16, Seoul, South Korea from Nov. 21 to 23, Berlin, Germany from Dec. 5 to 7 and Heerenveen, Netherlands from Dec. 12 to 14.

Museums join Open Data movement Staff

News – ‘Priceless’ Canadian scientific and technological artifacts are now just a mouse click away.

Data on the Canada Science and Technology Museums Corporation’s collection and operations are now available on the federal government’s new open data portal: data. gc.ca, as well as through the corporation’s data portal at data.technoscience.ca.

In joining the Open Data movement, the corporation is looking to support open science and open government, it said on its portal.

“With more than 100,000 artifacts in the collection, highlighting Canadian achievements in science and technology over the past 150 years, the museums’ challenge is sharing these fascinating artifacts with as many Canadians as possible,” the corporation said. “The government of Canada’s Open Data initiative provides a useful and accessible way of sharing the collection with everybody.”

“The national collection of artifacts under the custody of the (corporation) really belongs to all Canadians,” Alex Benay, the corporation’s president and chief executive officer, said in a statement on Oct. 28. “By using the latest information technology tools at their disposal, Canadians can now devise a variety of ways of using the data about their national artifact collection at their leisure.

FILE

The Canada Science and Technology Museums Corporation, which manages four national museums in Ottawa, has joined the Open Data movement with the online release of information on the artifacts in its collections.

The data being made available centres around the artifacts in the collections of the Canada Science and Technology Museum, the Canada Aviation and Space Museum and the Canada Agriculture and Food Museum.

Available artifact data on the portal ranges from firefighting to bookbinding and from astronomy to photography.

“Now that technology affords such possibilities, it is perfectly logical that Canadians have full access to the data about their collection of priceless and technology artifacts.”

The initiative is part of the federal government’s commitment to the Open Data movement nationally and internationally, Tony Clement, president of the Treasury Board, said in a statement.

“Open Data is a global phenomenon that holds incredible opportunity to spur innovation and economic growth and improvement the lives of everyday citizens,” he said.

The corporation invites anyone who makes a discovery or creates “new and unanticipated applications” with the open data to email collection@technomuses.ca.

The facility is expected to open in about two years, but in order for that to happen, the community will be called on to fundraise $1.5 million, Couns. Rick Chiarelli and Jan Harder announced on Oct. 30.

The Nepean-area councillors emphasized that residents of the former city have continually responded through the years to contribute to the local hospital. If each household in old Nepean donates $30 over the next year, the goal will be reached, Harder said.

up to do this again,” Chiarelli said.

The project is important for the area because 14 per cent of the people in the catchment area for the west-end hospital are over age 65 – that’s the third-highest population in Canada, Harder said.

Another $1.5 million will be raised through donors sought out by the hospital foundation, Adams said. The donated money will cover 10 per cent of the cost of capital construction, as well as the entire cost of equipment.

Last fall, the provincial government announced an $8.8-million contribution to the total $10.8-million project.

News - The Queensway Carleton Hospital will spend almost $11 million to create a unique unit that treats elderly patients holistically.

A 34-bed unit focused on acute care for elderly patients will offer specialized beds and a range of experts in geriatric care – from doctors and nurses to social services.

They will treat all the conditions a patient is dealing with – not just the one that landed them in the hospital.

That’s an approach currently only used at Mount Sinai Hospital in Toronto and it’s a shift from the old method of “putting them in a bed,” giving the patient medication and hoping they get better, said Cathy Gray, clinical nurse specialist for geriatric care at QCH. “This is a completely different way of providing care,” Gray said. “This is a new philosophy ... We’re not treating one acute medical issue, but all of those conditions.”

The hospital hopes the new unit will ease pressure on the rehabilitation centre for elderly patients, which is used to treat patients who have a longer-term issue such as a broken bone.

The approach should help prevent loss of muscle strength, as well as a medical condition called delirium, which prevent elderly patients from returning home on their own.

Gray said she expects frail patients will require shorter hospital stays and will leave in better condition than they would if they were treated with the standard approach to acute care.

The 34 beds aren’t new – they will be transferred from the hospital’s acute-care unit into the new centre, which is to be located above the new James Beech operating room. But the renovations and specialized

CHEO launches legal fight against gene patents Erin McCracken erin.mccracken@metroland.com

News – Ottawa’s regional children’s hospital has launched an unprecedented Canadian legal challenge against five American patent holders that have exclusive rights over human genes and related genetic mutations on heart conditions, which it says is not only “morally objectionable,” but is also creating roadblocks to providing prompt patient diagnosis and treatment.

“Genes are naturally occurring,” said Dr. Gail Graham, clinical geneticist and chief of CHEO’s genetics department.

“They belong to all of us and we think patenting a gene is a lot like patenting air or water. It just doesn’t make sense.”

Toronto-based law firm Gilbert’s LLP filed its legal challenge in Canadian federal court Monday morning, coinciding with CHEO’s announcement that it is the first Canadian hospital to take on gene patents in the country.

The test case the firm will base its courtroom battle on over the next two to three years is the patent for testing of Long QT, a potentially life-threatening genetic heart rhythm disorder that can cause fast, irregular heartbeats that can lead to fainting, seizures and in some cases sudden death in a very healthy young adult.

CHEO has two specialized tests its geneticists would like to put into practice, allowing them to identify the Long QT gene mutation, and allow patients to be treated as soon as possible.

But because of the patents, they can’t reveal to doctors whether a patient has Long QT because they are muzzled under patent law.

“That is unacceptable,” said Graham. “You can imagine being a doctor and sitting across from a patient knowing they’ve had this test and that they might have Long QT syndrome, and if they do you don’t know about it because the lab scientist who has that mutation (information)

can’t tell you about it.”

After years of hunting for answers about what killed her mother and grandmother when they were in their early 20s Katherine Dines’ was finally diagnosed as having the genetic disorder in 2002, thanks to CHEO. Genetic testing confirmed she and her two young daughters have Long QT. “It was bittersweet because at least for me it was a final confirmation and my children now have information to go forward and plan their futures,” the Carleton Heights resident said.

She said she couldn’t fathom the idea of not being immediately told she had the syndrome because of a gene patent.

“I would say that’s criminal to do that to a person,” Dines said.

Calling the patenting of human genetic information “morally objectionable,” Graham said the case is about breaking down barriers to patient care, at a time when there are likely

Shelley Ordorica, senior genetics technologist at CHEO, left, and Katherine Dines, who along with her two daughters was diagnosed with a genetic heart disorder known as Long QT syndrome, get a closer look at equipment in CHEO’s molecular diagnostics laboratory. CHEO announced Monday it is challenging five gene patents. more gene patents pending in Canada.

“Long QT is just one gene, but there’s nothing stopping people from patenting more and more and more genes, and eventually we could be sending all of our patients’ blood samples to the United States and missing out on the power that these technologies are giving us to help families,” Graham said.

The problem reared its head in Canada about four years ago when the Ontario Ministry of Health gave CHEO the green light to begin testing for Long QT, which can affect one in 2,000 to 2,500 people The American patent holders sent the ministry a ceaseand-desist letter laying claim to their exclusive right to diag-

nose the genetic disorder.

Because of that, Canadian hospitals are forced to send their patients’ blood samples to two labs south of the border to test for the abnormal gene.

It costs the ministry between $1,500 and $3,300 – twice what it would cost CHEO to do the same test in its own genetic labs.

Shipping samples out of the country also means a longer wait for test results.

The sooner a patient is diagnosed, the quicker they can be treated with medication and counselled on how to alter their lifestyle to safeguard their health, said Graham, adding that in higher-risk cases, a patient may receive an implantable defibrillator.

This is especially important

for undiagnosed parents, offspring or siblings of the patient, who don’t show any symptoms and need be tested for the disorder since there is a 50 per cent chance they have Long QT. “Right now these patents are interfering in patient care,” said Graham. “They’re bad patents in that sense.

“To put it simply, our doctors cannot accept the prospect of a child dying or potentially being orphaned because a patent prevented us from diagnosing and treating a serious life-threatening condition,” she said.

Sana Halwani and Nathaniel Lipkus will be representing CHEO in going up against the University of Utah Research Foundation, Genzyme Corporation and Yale University, and possibly more other corporate entities, which will hold those specific 20-year patents for another seven or eight years.

The case could go all the way to the Supreme Court of Canada, CHEO’s legal team said. A similar case is unfolding in Australia, and last year the U.S. Supreme Court ruled that patenting of genetic mutations related to breast cancer was not allowed because they occur naturally within the body.

Those who seek to monopolize that genetic information are motivated by money, said Halwani said.

“For them it’s going to be about profit margins, and about how much can they charge for the test, and obviously you can charge more when you have a monopoly on a test,” she said.

“For CHEO, this is about patient care.”

D R Artist paints tribute in WO memory of slain soldier

REMEMBRANCE DAY IN KANATA

NEW

!

News – With paintbrush in hand, Katerina Mertikas was in the midst of creating one of her trademark colourful paintings when news broke that a soldier had been shot at the National War Memorial in downtown Ottawa.

When word came later in the afternoon on Oct. 22 that Cpl. Nathan Cirillo had not survived after being shot by lone gunman Michael ZehafBibeau, Mertikas grabbed a blank canvas and let her emotions pour through her brush.

By 11 a.m. the next morning, as Canadians were still trying to come to grips with the attack on the Canadian Armed Forces reservist, Mertikas had painted five-year-old Marcus Cirillo saluting his father standing in uniform nearby in front of the National War Memorial.

The painting is aptly named, “Honouring My Father.”

Mertikas said she was very emo-

tional as she painted the colourful images, which include the Parliament buildings and the Chateau Laurier. The Upper Hunt Club artist is known for depicting poignant childhood scenes awash in vibrant colours.

“I thought, ‘What would my children do?’ I would salute my father,” Mertikas said of her inspiration.

“I thought, it was just an unprovoked thing,” she recalled. “It was awful. You don’t need thousands of deaths to feel. This one death touched us. It was just tragic, unnecessary, cold.”

Her husband took a picture of her artwork and posted it on Mertikas’ Facebook page. It was shared about 300 times.

As word spread about the tribute painting, she was contacted by former Ottawa mayor Jacqueline Holzman, who met with Mertikas and Terry Koyman, owner of Koyman Galleries, where Mertikas’ works are sold.

Proceeds from the sale of each $124 print of the painting will go to the Marcus Cirillo Trust Fund. The last two digits of the price tag were chosen to reflect Cirillo’s age when he passed away.

“That man was 24, just on the verge of his life,” Mertikas said.

An image of the painting was posted on Koyman Galleries’ website the evening of Oct. 30. By the next morning, more than 30 prints had already been ordered.

The reaction to her painting and the support she has received have been so overwhelming and exciting for Mertikas that she couldn’t concentrate enough to paint last Friday, even though she typically paints every day.

“I can’t believe it. I don’t know what to say,” she said. “People were touched by this.

It’s not just about the painting.

“It’s the idea behind the painting. It’s the son.

“A lot of people want to be part of some-

A suggestion has also been made to present the first print of the painting to Marcus.

Feds roll out tax cuts, boost benefits for families Erin McCracken erin.mccracken@metroland.com

News – The federal government is rolling out tax cuts and increased benefits for Canadian families with children to help them offset childcare costs, and provide additional financial relief for other expenses.

The changes include a boost in the universal childcare benefit for families with children under age six, from $1,200 a year per child to $1,920. That takes effect Jan. 1, 2015.

And families with children ages six to 17 will also receive financial relief to the tune of $60 per month per child, which translates into $720 per child each year, the federal government announced late last week.

That benefit also comes into effect Jan. 1, 2015, and parents will receive their first lumpsum payment next July 1, to allow the government to put the payment system in place for four million families. Following that, parents will begin the payments monthly.

“The idea is that childcare is much more expensive in the preschool period and then the education system picks up the cost of the daily childcare once the kids reach six years old,” said Democratic Reform Minister Pierre Poilievre, who serves as member of parliament for Nepean-Carleton. “So the benefit is more generous in the preschool period.”

But the federal government wanted to help families with older children with expenses such as groceries, sports, and housing, among others, he said of enacting a benefit for additional families.

“That’s a lot of money for the average Canadian household,” he said.

The Conservative government’s vision to support families makes sense compared to that of the New Democrats and Liberals which support “institutional, unionized childcare bureaucracies,” Poilievre said. “Whereas we believe in just giving the dollars back to parents.”

The Harper government wants families to decide what to do with their childcare benefits and tax savings, whether they spend these additional funds on childcare or other expenses.

“Our view is that these are decisions for parents to make,” he said. “The government should let people keep more of their money and make those decisions for themselves, rather than having a top-down, one-size-fits-all institutional program.”

The new family tax cut, which was promised SUBMITTED by the Conservatives in the 2011 election, will Democratic Reform Minister Pierre Poilievre, who serves as member of parliament for come into effect for the 2014 tax year when par- Nepean-Carleton, joins families in Manotick in celebrating the Conservative governents file their taxes next spring. ment’s tax-relief measures for families on Oct. 31.

Poilievre said these families can expect to see their refunds before Christmas 2015.

EXTRA MEASURES

The federal government has also announced plans to increase childcare expense deduction limits by $1,000, which will come into effect for the 2015 taxation year.

The maximum amounts claimed will increase to $8,000 for children under age seven, to $5,000 for children aged seven to 16 and infirm dependent children over age 16, and to $11,000 for children who are eligible for the disability tax credit.

Families in which one parent works full time and the second parent either stays at home with the children or works part time and earns less will be taxed at a lower rate beginning next year.

Parents of children under age 18 will be able to split the higher of their two incomes on their tax forms, which Poilievre said will help almost two million Canadian families.

The higher-earning spouse will be able to transfer up to $50,000 of their taxable income to the spouse in a lower tax bracket to reduce their tax bill by as much as $2,000.

“It recognizes that a stay-at-home parent is doing a job and arguably is partly responsible for the salary that the breadwinner is bringing home,” Poilievre said. “If the breadwinner of the house is able to get up (and go to work) between nine and five as the stay-at-home parent is taking care of the children and the household, therefore their income really is shared because it is a team effort.

“And the tax system is now going to recognize that.”

As a result of Prime Minister Stephen Harper’s family tax cut and increased childcare benefit, the average Canada family with children will have an extra $1,100 in their pocket, Poilievre said. There are an estimated four million families with children in Canada.

Conservatives holding office warn against Agenda 21 Cheryl Gallant shows ‘courage’ in fight for survival of rural life: MacLaren Derek Dunn derek.dunn@metroland.com

News - At least two prominent conservative politicians in the Ottawa Valley are convinced governments are intent on seizing control of all landuse decisions, starving rural areas of funding and forcing people into city apartment complexes.

Small town hospitals will shut down; roads and sewers left to crumble and collapse; overall individual rights removed; people forced out of cars and onto public transit; and wealth redistributed from western countries so “people in poorer countries will have more.”

It will come to pass because of Agenda 21, a UN document that champions 21st century sustainable development.

The agenda was laid out in Renfrew-Nipissing-Pembroke

MP Cheryl Gallant’s ‘Report from Parliament’ last August.

Later, Carleton-Mississippi Mills MPP Jack MacLaren tweeted: “I’m proud of (Gallant) for having the courage to bring up the issue of Agenda 21.”

Although prone to numerous gaffes over her long political career and having little influence on Conservative heavyweights on Parliament Hill, Gallant has spent considerable time examining the issue and has determined the Liberal parties at the provincial and federal levels are set on implementing the UN plan.

“With your support and encouragement, I will continue to expose the hidden agenda of the merged liberal (sic) party of Toronto in Ottawa,” she concluded in the lengthy essay. “They have condemned our children to a lifetime of debt repayment by promoting wacky social experiments

like Agenda 21, the Places to Grow, Green Energy Acts and similar misguided policies.”

One-time Fox News host Glenn Beck penned a dystopian science fiction novel based on the idea, appropriately titled Agenda 21. He envisions rural and suburban homeowners stripped of their property and schlepped off to cities crammed with human masses forced to don government-issued uniforms and walk on energy boards to feed the power grid.

Neither Gallant nor MacLaren mentioned the nonbinding, suggestion-filled nature of Agenda 21, a 22-yearold document similar to others the UN habitually generates following international summits. The urban planners and decision-makers who follow smart growth objectives to check urban sprawl, and who attempt to counter environmental degradation and extreme poverty, are not merely offering plans that parallel Agenda 21, but offering “ideas that can become dangerous,” according to Gallant’s essay.

CROWN PATENTS

CLIMATE DENIAL

For many years, MacLaren has been preoccupied in protecting private property rights from legislation inspired by Agenda 21 and other sources.

The former Ontario Landowners Association (OLA) president promoted and took a leading roll in a recent conference that founded “The International Property Rights Association” in Kanata.

International and Canadian guest speakers discussed Letters Patent, U.S. constitutional law and related topics. The former involves the notion that a landowner is protected against current laws if they can secure the original Crown patent. Therefore, no need for building permits or protecting wetlands.

Few, if any, in the legal profession defend the notion.

The issue prompted another prominent area conservative to break with OLA in 2012. Randy Hillier founded the movement but recently denounced members in a daily newspaper as “nutbars.”

That wasn’t what Progressive Conservative leadership hopefuls Lisa MacLeod, Christine Elliott, and Vic Fedeli said when they attended the OLA conference. All had positive comments about the discussions.

Political columnists such as

MacLaren has also stated on numerous occasions that he doesn’t believe in climate change; quite the opposite. He said more carbon in the atmosphere will have a beneficial effect on the environment, creating more trees.

“CO2 is a positive gas. We need CO2,” MacLaren said.

“There is a positive side to that.”

Despite the often stated fact in mainstream media that the vast majority of the world’s scientists agree that human induced climate change is underway, MacLaren insists the ratio is closer to 45 to 55 per cent; with the latter in disagreement with the science proving climate change is real.

He admits catastrophic weather events are occurring, but they are nothing new.

“We’ve always had extreme weather. There’s always been storms,” MacLaren said.

“Things go up and things go down.”

He chided U.S. President Barak Obama, who along with the Pentagon, many business organizations, most major media outlets and other institutions has declared the science closed.

“If the science is closed, he’s not a very open-minded person. Is he?”

CHERYL GALLANT

Martin Regg Cohn of the Toronto Star say the Progressive Conservatives must shrug off the Tea Party North reputation if they hope to regain power in Ontario. Playing to their narrow base with property rights issues, union bashing and suspicion of government hasn’t worked in years.

“After a four-election losing streak that has claimed three leaders since 2003, it’s a lifeor-death question for Progressive Conservatives: Not just who’s next, but what’s next,” Cohn wrote soon after the recent election that ended with a Liberal majority.

“More than a mere change of face, they need a new voice and a broader vision. Cheap talk about ‘compassionate conservativism’ won’t win over voters when a party muses about mass firings.”

Police announce new rural south community officer Emma Jackson

emma.jackson@metroland.com

News - After four and a half years in Osgoode ward, Const. Nicole Gorham will leave the community in the hands of a new community police officer.

“It’s bittersweet,” said Gorham, who will leave the Rural South Community Po-

lice Centre on Parkway Road in Greely on Nov. 7.

She’ll start her new role as a use of force instructor at the Ottawa Police Services’ professional development centre at Algonquin College later this fall, after a trip to Ireland with her husband.

Gorham will teach defensive tactics to new recruits, and help re-certify police of-

ficers already on the force.

While Gorham said she is looking forward to bringing her teaching skills to her day job – she’s a Goodlife fitness instructor on her time off – she said she’ll miss the friendships that inevitably grow from a community policing position.

“It has been one of the most rewarding jobs in policing,” she said in an email to her extensive contact list.

“Many times as police of-

ficers we are faced with some horrific things and have seen people at their absolute worst.

Community policing has left me feeling restored, grateful and valued.”

The Orleans resident said it was sometimes a challenge to earn her constituents’ trust, being an outsider to the tightknit rural community that includes all of Osgoode ward.

“It’s taken a while for them to call me, as the outsider,” she said. “The geography is

huge, so trying to keep tabs on everybody and everything going on has been a challenge.”

Gorham’s replacement, Const. Stephanie Lemieux, comes from a school resource officer background, so already has lots of experience connecting with residents, Gorham said.

Lemieux has also filled in for Gorham on holidays, and joined Gorham for this week’s Crime Prevention

R0012_1016

Const. Stephanie Lemieux to start Nov. 10

Week activities in an effort to get to know the community.

Gorham said she’s confident the transition will be an easy one – and promised to be just “an email away” for both Lemieux and residents as Lemieux gets settled.

“It’s been four and a half years for me, so it’s good to have fresh eyes come in,” Gorham said.

Lemieux starts on Nov. 10.

The community police centre is located at 7010 Parkway Rd. in Greely and can be reached at 613-236-1222 ext 3787.

Taking back the power from digital abusers Resource centre raising awareness about the rise of digital abuse Jessica Cunha

jessica.cunha@metroland.com

Imagine having every move tracked, every conversation recorded, and being bombarded with negative and harmful messaging at any moment.

As technology becomes smarter, so too do abusers, say counsellors working at the Western Ottawa Community Resource Centre.

“We’ve seen more and more of it. For example, using cell phones with GPS systems to track where the woman is,” said Vivienne, a counsellor in the resource centre’s Violence Against Women (VAW) program. No last names are used to protect those working at the resource centre.

Home security systems that use cameras and smart phones become 24-7 monitoring devices.

“That’s always good in a healthy relationship, but can you imagine that in the hands of an abuser?” Vivienne asked. “He watches the woman; who she’s with, all the movements.”

Clients have found peel-and-stick cameras placed around their house and bugs in the landlines, said Vivienne.

The various systems are used to give an abuser more control over his partner or ex-partner; the ability to monitor every movement, to record and listen to every conversation, and to undermine any sense of safety or security.

Over the past five years, the number of women reporting technological abuse at the centre has become more common, said Vivienne. It includes cyber stalking and bullying, threats and harassment, sexual, emotional and verbal abuse.

“This is going to get worse and worse,” she said. “The more technology there is out there the more it’s going to be used against the vulnerable. And that’s really sad.”

November is Woman Abuse Prevention Month and Metroland Media will be publishing a number of articles on the subject. The first installment focuses on technological, or digital, abuse.

Digital abuse is when technology is used to gain and maintain control

over a partner or ex-partner.

It is emotional, physical and psychological, said Maureen, a counsellor who works with children in the resource centre’s VAW program.

Many abusers give their child a smartphone and use that to keep tabs on what happens when the child is with the mother.

“Some will send messages through the children, putting the child in the middle,” said Maureen.

“They’ll use the kids – ask ‘where are you? Where’s mom? Is mom there with a man?’” added Vivienne.

“Then they know where mom is whenever the kids are with mom.”

Online, cyber bullying isn’t something only teens and youth have to deal with; abusers stalk their victims’ social media accounts, post and spread rumours, and send threatening messages.

“We’re busy enough just texting in a healthy situation … but to have someone like this do it to you all the time … swearing at you … it really has a huge impact.

They tell me they can hear his voice, can hear the tone.”

Maureen Western Ottawa Community Resource Centre counsellor

Text messaging also becomes a form of control and the constant bombardment is instant.

“We’re not just talking about one or two texts, we’re talking about hundreds,” said Maureen.

“They live in fear constantly,” said Vivienne. “I’ve had women come in and they cannot even speak; they are so overwhelmed.

“We’re busy enough just texting in a healthy situation … but to have someone like this do it to you all the time … swearing at you … it really has a huge impact. They tell me they can hear his voice, can hear the tone.”

And it’s not always as easy as turning the phone off or disconnecting from technology. When children are involved and the parties need to talk about access, it can get complicated.

“If the court says you have to communicate for the sake of the children … (abusers are) able to get around

A still taken from a promotional video by Interval House, which provides safety and support to women and their children escaping abuse, shows how an abuser can use technology to control his victim. The video, titled ‘Phone Demo’ can be viewed at youtube.com/watch?v=8eUIe_mnVjk. it by saying ‘I need to talk about the kids,’” said Maureen.

This can often leave women feeling like they have no course of action available to them.

So what can be done?

Creating a safety plan can help, said Maureen. “There’s a lot of things women can do themselves.”

If it’s possible, change phone numbers, change phones and screen calls from unknown numbers.

If that isn’t an option, there are other steps people can take, she said.

When children are in the mother’s care, she has a right to hold on to and monitor any cell phones.

Keep track of and save all abusive, harassing and inappropriate voicemails and texts.

Have a friend screen any incoming messages.

Make sure phones are password protected.

Check to ensure the satellite symbol is not flashing, that programs do not start running when the phone is turned on and that the battery life isn’t shorter than normal – those signs can all mean a cell is being tracked.

Online, change passwords regularly and keep them private. Edit privacy settings on social media sites and applications so only people that have been approved can see any posts.

Check the location settings on

smartphone applications and turn off the GPS tracker for any apps that don’t need it.

Women can also request a sweep of their home to locate any recording or monitoring devices. Ottawa police and Ottawa Victim Services both offer this service, said Vivienne.

It is possible to get help.

“If you live in fear you’re giving them exactly what they want,” said Vivienne. “Take your power back and just live well. That’s what (abusers) hate, so live well.”

The Western Ottawa Community Resource Centre has a large VAW

program that helps women living in West Carleton, Kanata, Goulbourn, Rideau, Nepean, Osgoode and Bay wards. The program offers peer support, individual and group counselling, transitional housing, referrals, and resources.

The resource centre also runs Chrysalis House, a secure 25-bed shelter for women and children leaving an abusive home.

Ottawa native part of launch for new social media company Jennifer McIntosh

jennifer.mcintosh@metroland.com

News - A new business, aptly dubbed Needls, helps entrepreneurs find sales leads through social media.

Like the proverbial needle in a haystack, Needls looks for keywords on Twitter and Facebook to find clients for everything from plumbers to tutors.

Jeremy Poriah, a Sir Robert Borden alumni and former Barrhaven resident, started the company with Michael Koral and Justin Hartzman.

He said the Needls tool was originally an offshoot of their web business.

“Our wives would notice people on Facebook looking for a web designer or an iPhone app developer,” Poriah said. “So we created a very basic code that would search key words and send us an email. We got a very large contract from that.”

And the idea grew.

The trio decided local businesses and entrepreneurs could benefit from

the data mining capability.

“Increasingly people go to the web looking for services, like ‘my basement flooded -- does anyone know a plumber?’” he said. “But businesses don’t have time to scour the Internet.”

So, with a little tweaking, Poriah said they were able to create an algorithm that uses key words, geographic location, natural language pro-

cesses and data mining techniques to bring those who offer services to the people that want them.

Poriah said their original prototype only used keyword searches and returned too many irrelevant matches.

Needls had a soft launch in the spring and did work for clients in an effort to get feedback. He said the accuracy of the searches was about 80 per cent – which includes measuring

intent to buy.

Of the clients that test drove the service, 37 per cent were willing to pay for the service and Poriah said a strong marketing campaign - both online and off – will grow those numbers.

“People are increasingly turning to the Internet to get recommendations on plumbers, contractors, tutors, nannies…really everything,” Poriah

A weekly guide in legal matters

Have you thought about a cohabitation agreement?

Many couples today choose to live together in long-term and committed relationships without marrying. What some couples don’t understand is that the law treats married and unmarried, or common-law, spouses differently. It is important to understand these differences and how they will affect a person’s rights to property, support payments or a partner’s estate.

Some key things to remember: in Ontario, property is not automatically divided between unmarried couples if a relationship ends; unmarried spouses may have a spousal support obligation, but only if they have a child together or if they have been living together for at least three years; and only married spouses automatically have a right to share in a spouse’s estate if that spouse dies without a will, no matter how long a couple has been in a relationship or whether they have children together.

How can we protect each other with a cohabitation agreement?

In Ontario, unmarried couples are permitted to negotiate a contract–a cohabitation agreement–that lets them agree on certain rights and obligations in the relationship. A cohabitation

agreement gives couples a great opportunity to carefully consider each other’s financial situation now and in the future, and decide together how they wish to share property, pay (or not pay) support to a partner in the event of a break-up, and what happens to the estate upon the death of a partner.

Cohabitation agreements can also address who has a right to direct the “education and moral training” of children, but it cannot address who will have custody or access to children.

That can only be decided once a relationship ends.

It is important to plan ahead, be aware of your rights, and know what will happen if a relationship ends by choice or in the event of a death. It’s never too late to draft a cohabitation agreement, but in order to have legal effect these agreements need to have clear terms that are understood by each person.

This is why it is critical to have a qualified lawyer assist in the preparation of a cohabitation agreement.

Many couples worry that having a conversation about a cohabitation agreement will be difficult and distasteful, but having these discussions now can lead to thoughtful and caring discussions about the future.

Cause close to heart

The cause is particularly close to the Rochon’s hearts, said Luc, as Camille has cystic fibrosis. The Ottawa chapter of Cystic Fibrosis Canada held the event, which had three slingshot devices of various sizes for kids and adults to fire pumpkins. Anyone who hit a target had their name put in a draw for prizes.

Billeting hockey boys Experienced billiter Heather Johnston reveals what itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s really like Heather Johnston

Kanata Lasers billet coordinator

I became a billet mom to provide a loving, safe, family-like environment for players who were playing away from home.

I was teaching intermediate grade special needs students when I first started doing this.

I lived alone and always enjoyed having people around.

I am retired now and have more time to take care of and provide for these kids.

My family are very involved in hockey and enjoy being part of the boysâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; lives as well.

There are some players who donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t want or need the family experience. These are not the types I want in my home.

Our family go to as many games as we can and our billet guys do the same for my grandchildrenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s games.

Some of my boys have assisted with coaching on their teams as well. The boys are considered part of the family and are included in all celebrations and activities such as birthdays, backyard rink games, mini stick challenges etc. They have been called upon to help with the dogs when needed. They love the extra attention.

Feeding hungry, growing guys nutritionally is a challenge. I shop the flyer bargains every week.

Food is the greatest increase to the budget. You have to come up with nutritional meals while keeping costs within reason.

No packaged convenience foods in my house.

Homemade soup, bread, cookies and occasional desserts are a must. You can expect significant increases in water and hydro bills as well.

My boys have individual bedrooms in a fin-

ished basement.

The boys are expected to keep their living areas neat and tidy, do their own laundry, help with household chores and some outdoor work such as shovelling, garbage and lawn cutting.

They should all be doing some courses and if they are not involved with schooling they are expected to be working or doing community service. I teach my boys to cook and clean up as well so they can produce healthy meals and take care of themselves when they leave me.

We have our main meal together each day. This is a talk time and the events of the day are discussed.

Billet parents naturally assume the role of mentor.

Many social and emotional issues arise. The billet guidelines are very clear and deal with the social traps that are bound to arise. I play the parent/ teacher card when emotional issues come up.

I treat them like my own children so they are expected to respect me and my moral standards.

We bond and become very

close.

I mentally start preparing for their departures three weeks ahead. They leave a very big hole when they go. I keep in touch with my boys, even from 10 years ago, through social media. They check up regularly on me and the team.

One way or another I make sure I have contact with the boysâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; family. I have met so many wonderful families. I have fostered warm, meaningful relationships and enjoyed having them in my home for visits, dinners and even stay overs.

Billeting has been a very positive experience for me.

I have had good guys and some not so good ones.

Many are leaving home very young and need tending. On the other hand others are in their 20th year and seek more independence. You have to be flexible to make it all work.

Each person is different.

I think that is the challenge for me. My job is to keep them healthy, well rested, educated and mentally positive - ready to play their best hockey.

New Ottawa police collision reporting centre now open Staff

News - A new collision reporting centre is now open at the Elgin Police Station.

The centre, located at 474 Elgin St. is aimed at reducing the amount of time motorists wait for a police officer at the scene of a collision -which police have said can sometimes take up to two hours.

â&#x20AC;&#x153;Collision Reporting Centres mean officers will spend less time on calls involving minor collisions,â&#x20AC;? said Insp. Sandra McLaren, who is running the new collision centre.

All motorists involved in collisions must contact the police communications centre at 613-230-6211, where police will determine whether the collision can be reported at a collision centre, or if an officer needs to

attend the scene.

Drivers involved in a collision must report at the centre as soon as possible. In the case where there is more than one vehicle involved in a collision, drivers also do not have to attend the centre at the same time. â&#x20AC;&#x153;If a driver has not reported within 24 hours, police will begin a fail to report collision investigation,â&#x20AC;?

McLaren said.

If a motorist is referred to a collision centre, they will be given a police report number to bring with them.

The 474 Elgin St. Collision Reporting Centre is open seven days a week from 7 a.m. to 9 p.m.

Collisions in the west end and central parts of the city will be diverted to 211 Huntmar Dr. Collision Reporting Centre or the Elgin Street one.

According to police, since the collision centre opened at 211 Huntmar, 898 non-injury collision from the west end have been diverted off of areas roads.

It is expected that 70 per cent of all collisions, or 13,000 collisions, will be redirected to a reporting centre by the end of 2014. According to police, this will free up about 8,600 hours of patrol time,

Kidney donor recognized for lifesaving donation erin.mccracken@metroland.com

News – In the eyes of Jacqueline Nemeth, her brotherin-law Steve Mortimer moved mountains so she could one day climb one, a goal she never thought she would accomplish if he hadn’t donated his kidney.

“I just got back from a hiking trip to Mount Assiniboine, which is on the B.C.Alberta border,” she said of her September hiking trip up more than 2,100 metres.

“One of the things illness teaches people is to live for now. I don’t want to miss anything because I sure feel great right now and I’ve been given this opportunity and a lease on life.”

Nemeth received her second kidney transplant in September 2012 through the Canadian Blood Services’ Living Donor Paired Exchange national kidney transplant registry for incompatible donor-recipient pairs. Despite sharing the same blood type, Mortimer could not directly donate to Nemeth because her body would have rejected his kidney due to an antibody antigen in his blood.

But thanks to the Cedardale resident’s willingness to provide the gift of life, a threeway organ donation exchange was set up among participants whose identities are not disclosed to one another. The Mortimers travelled to Vancouver in September 2012, where another pair and Nemeth were waiting.

Mortimer’s kidney went to a female recipient, whose husband donated a kidney to an out-of-province recipient.

And someone close to that recipient donated their kidney to Nemeth.

“It starts off a chain of events so that more people can benefit,” Mary Rada, a registered nurse and living donor co-ordinator of the Renal Transplant Program, based at the Riverside Campus of The Ottawa Hospital, said of Mortimer’s willingness to donate.

Nemeth is also grateful for Mortimer’s gift.

“I wouldn’t be alive if I hadn’t received my two transplants,” the 48-year-old said.

“In the case of kidney donations, often direct dona-

tions happen, but when they can’t I think it’s really important that people know of the alternative that’s created through the paired exchange, because it’s a wonderful program that has saved hundreds of lives across Canada,” said Mortimer, who was among 36 donors recognized at a special ceremony held at the Civic Campus of The Ottawa Hospital on Oct. 14.

Mortimer doesn’t consider himself a hero.

“I think when it’s so close to home and it’s so personal you don’t think of yourself that way. You think of it as stepping up to help a loved one in need,” said Mortimer, 47. “I had the benefit of witnessing as my sister-in-law had an incredible recovery from where she was to where she is now, and for me that’s been tremendously rewarding.”

Nemeth, who lives in Vancouver with her husband, stepson and three teenage daughters, had suffered from kidney disease for much of her young life because of a malfunctioning duct through which urine passes from the kidney to the bladder. She received her first kidney from a deceased donor in 1987 at age 17.

That kidney lasted about 25 years – far longer than the expected 10 to 15 years. In 2011, she was told she needed a replacement.

For Nemeth, the second transplant surgery was done in the nick of time. Her lone kidney was functioning at just 10 per cent.

“Basically when I woke up from the surgery I felt better,” she said.

Nine months later, Nemeth completed a mini-triathlon.

“It’s something I would have loved to have done, but never thought it would have been possible for me, and the only reason it was possible was because of Steve giving me his kidney,” she said. “I feel better than I felt 10 years ago.”

“For her to be able to do that was just amazing,” said Mortimer. “Just knowing that someone has had their life changed is great. It’s very rewarding.”

The recent recognition ceremony was an emotional time for those recipients and

“It brings back the memories of what they’ve done,” she said.

Between 40 and 45 living donor transplants have been conducted at The Ottawa Hospital annually in last two years.

“It’s amazing,” Rada said of the positive impact of organ donation.

News Armed with boxes brimming with hundreds of brand new ruby red poppies, Georges Winters and Brian Madden planned to head out to dozens of businesses in south Ottawa on the first official day of the annual poppy campaign.

“We’ll make 42 stops,” said Winters, a 20-year member of the Royal Canadian Legion and former military musician who served in the 1960s.

The massive undertaking that began at the Strathcona legion branch was a team effort. Legion poppy chairman Martin Maltais has been co-ordinating the operation.

“If we weren’t doing it, who would be doing it?” the retired 24year veteran of the Air Force said of his reasons for being involved in the campaign.

Winters was joined on the delivery route by the branch’s past-president

Martin Maltais, left, Georges Winters and Brian Madden have been working behind the scenes at the Strathcona branch of the Royal Canadian Legion on Bank Street to ensure thousands of poppies would be available at businesses and organizations in south Ottawa starting Oct. 31 – the first official day of the national poppy campaign. The Strathcona branch members will hold their annual Remembrance Day ceremony in east Ottawa on Nov. 6. and deputy poppy chairman Brian Madden.

“It needs to be done,” said Madden of his reasons for participating.

“I would not have met my wife. I would not have two good sons if it wasn’t for the people who laid down their lives, and allowed me to do

this,” said Winters.

That day, their thoughts were of their Second World War veteran friends, one of whom passed away earlier this year.

“They were always there for us,” Madden said. “The reason it’s important for us is to help these veterans

and their families.”

The poppies they planned to deliver are among about 18 million that are being distributed by the Royal Canadian Legion across Canada.

Last year, the Strathcona, Westboro and Eastview legion branches collected $176,000 through their Ottawa poppy campaign. Donations collected during the campaign in the lead up to Remembrance Day on Nov. 11 will support military veterans and their families through the provision of mobility aids and helping offset the cost of groceries, hydro bills, even the cost of snow shoveling.

“We’re very strong on trying to keep people in their homes,” Winters said.

Another cause that is close to their hearts is the Royal Canadian Legion’s national Leave the Streets Behind program, which provides financial assistance and other support to homeless veterans or those at risk of becoming homeless.

“Last year, our Ottawa poppy fund donated $50,000 to the Leave the Streets program,” said Madden, a legion member for about nine years, who also served with the Canadian Army in the 1980s. “It’s very important to the legion to help our Afghan

veterans now.”

Many people today don’t realize there is a new generation of war veterans, many of them in their 20s, who are in crisis and in need of financial, mental or physical support, he said.

“It’s frustrating that they’re not getting the supports that they need so the legion is going out of its way to make sure that the youngest veterans are getting the support that they need,” said Madden.

He remembers encountering a Silver Cross mother two years ago when he was working to distribute poppies along with cadets at the Canada War Museum.

“She was younger than me,” the 52-year-old Sandy Hill resident said.

“Growing up we think of the Silver Cross mothers as those in their 80s and 90s. Suddenly this woman comes in and she’s in her 40s. And that’s when it really hit home, how old these veterans are.

“It’s the one thing we wanted to run out of – Silver Cross mothers.

It means we haven’t had anybody killed in a long time. Now we have more than 100 more Silver Cross mothers.”

Shauna Quinn with a donated pack of diapers at the diaper drop-off for the Bare Bottoms Diaper Drive at the McDaniel’s Independent Grocer near Merivale and Meadowlands.

Bare Bottoms no more for mothers in need Nepean diaper drive collects for the Ottawa Food Bank Brier Dodge brier.dodge@metroland.com

News - When Shauna Quinn gave birth to her daughter, her family experienced the financial struggle of a newborn. Extra costs arrived every day, ranging from food, equipment, clothing, and the dozen or so diapers a newborn often goes through each day.

So she decided to do something to help mothers in difficult financial shape. She started a diaper drive, now in its fifth year, to collect diapers for the Ottawa Food Bank to distribute to families in need or in shelters.

While online, she noticed a program that collected diapers to distribute, and tried to find something local in Ottawa.

“There was nothing in Canada,” she said.

“So I started my own.”

Disposable diapers come in seven sizes – newborn and then one through six – but parents often move their child into the next size as soon as possible.

If a baby wears a too small diaper, things can

get messy quickly, Quinn said.

That means it’s common for parents to have half a package or more of unused and undersized that are prime for donating, she said.

“You always have leftover diapers,” she said. “You don’t wait until your child reaches the end of the size to transition.”

The Ottawa Food Bank doesn’t accept open food items, but they make an exception for open packs of disposable diapers. By donating to the Ottawa Food Bank, they can allocate diapers where they are most needed on a yearby-year basis.

From birth to the potty-training stage, a child goes through an average of 7,500 diapers, Quinn said – a cost of about $3,000. The first year of the diaper drive, she collected 7,500. This year, she aims to pass the 10,000 mark.

She has set up a drop-off at the McDaniel’s Independent Grocer near Merivale and Meadowlands, where she works. She is actively looking for a second drop-off location, preferably in the east end.

Anyone wishing to get in contact about donations or to set up a drop-off spot can contact Quinn at BareBottoms@outlook.com. You can also follow the diaper drive on Twitter at the handle @BareBottomsDD.

Bronson escarpment bike path design finalized Construction on Albert-Laurier link to start next year Laura Mueller laura.mueller@metroland.com

News - Ottawa cyclists are getting a better picture of what a pathway link through the Bronson escarpment will look like when itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s built next year.

The path, which includes a section through the former technical high school lands east of Bronson Avenue and south of Slater Street, is the next section of the bikeway that will eventually link Vanier and Westboro with a series of paths and different types of bike lanes.

The goal is to improve the comfort of cyclists by separating them from roads with heavy traffic, like Bronson, and reducing the steepness of the grade they have to travel up or down.

The tricky portion near the intersections of Bronson, Slater, Albert Street and Commissioner Street will require two new sections of pathway and a new traffic signal to be built next year. The new crossing signal will allow pedestrians and eastbound cyclists to cross Albert Street halfway between Brickhill Street and Commissioner to get to a new pathway to be built in the green buffer between Albert and Slater.

The location of that new traffic signal was determined by traffic engineers, who wanted to ensure there was enough room for vehicles to â&#x20AC;&#x153;stackâ&#x20AC;? at the Bronson intersection.

The path will curve around to bring cyclists south to the Bronson-Slater intersection, where they will have to dismount to cross to the south side of Slater. From there, the route will continue with a crossride, which allows cyclists to ride beside the pedestrian crosswalk, to get to the pathway link through the tech

CITY OF OTTAWA

Construction on two multi-use pathway links in west Centretown will begin in 2015.

Designs for the east-west bikeway link were finalized this fall. school land. That path will cut south to link up with the segregated bike lanes on Laurier Avenue, at Percy Street, which has a southbound bike lane.

The route cuts through an existing pet play area, which

will be reduced to 70 per cent of its current size. It will be fenced off during and after construction.

Both pathways are multiuse, so pedestrians and people using mobility devices, skateboards and roller blades can

also use the route.

Eventually, after the lightrail transit system begins running in 2018, another cycling route will be constructed along Slater between Bronson and Empress Avenue. That two-way cycling route will

be separated from vehicular traffic and will give cyclists a more direct way to get down the escarpment and connect to new bike lanes on Slater and Albert to the west, which will be constructed when those roads are rebuilt after LRT is up and running. A crossing for cyclists will be added at Empress to allow cyclists on the south side of Albert to access westbound lanes on the north side.

But itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not clear whether the pathway links being built in 2015 will be changed or decommissioned, said Zlatko Krstulic, the planner in charge of the bikeway linkâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s design. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t think we have a final decision on that right now,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We have a few years to make that decision. For the time being, weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re going to leave that an open question.â&#x20AC;?

Winter maintenance of the new pathway link would be considered as part of city councilâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s 2015-16 term priorities.

As part of the project, a section of the Laurier bike lane between Percy and Bay streets will be converted to a raised cycling track at the same height as the sidewalk.

Ottawa daycare providers fight proposed childcare bill Michelle Nash michelle.nash@metroland.com

News - Ottawa’s independent child care workers want parents in the city to know proposed changes to the Ontario Day Nurseries Act will affect families negatively.

The Coalition of Independent Childcare Providers of Ontario held 11 protests across Ontario on Oct. 26 to draw attention to the Liberal government’s proposed childcare modernization act and what it could mean for independent daycare providers.

The child care modernization act, Bill 10, will replace the Day Nurseries Act, which was first introduced in 1946 and has not been reviewed since 1983. According to the Liberal government, the changes will reflect child care needs of today’s families.

The changes will increase access to spaces in each licensed home child care settings from five to six.

According to the province, by allowing daycare providers to take in one more child will add 6,000 licensed spots.

It would also change the number of children a daycare provider would be allowed to have under a certain age; each home daycare would only be able to accept two children under the age of two.

The government would also have greater enforcement tools to strengthen safety and clarify programs that do not require a licence.

Proposed changes would also require anyone working within the early childhood education field to be registered with the College of Early Childhood Educators, including individuals providing care in unlicensed settings.

The Ottawa protest took place at the Human Rights Monument adjacent to city hall, where child care workers, parents and supporters rallied to help spread the word about the changes.

“We want people to join the coalition and join the fight,” said Heidi Higgins, co-founder of the coalition.

Higgins spoke about what the coalition believes would happen if the changes to the act were implemented in Bill 10.

Higgins said is its unnecessary to change the number of children allowed at each licensed facility, such as two children under the age of two as well as the individual daycare provider’s children counting as children in their care.

Higgins added the greatest need for daycare spots is parents seeking a spot for a child 12 months old – at the usual end of a maternity leave – and with the proposed two-chil-

dren-under-two rule, daycares will be unable to fill that need and it will ultimately limit the number of spaces available, resulting in what the coalition calls the loss of 140,000 daycare spots in Ontario.

Higgins said that most daycare providers worry about the safety of adding another child – six, up from five – and the restriction of having only two children under the age of two will likely result in home daycares closing. She said that will result in the exact opposite to what the Liberals hope to achieve by reducing spaces.

Daycare provider Sharon Higginson believes moving from five to six children in a home daycare wouldn’t be safe.

“I cannot add a child to the five I already have,” said Higginson. “It would not be fair to the five monkeys I am already taking care of.”

Nepean-Carleton MPP and current Progressive Conservative leadership candidate Lisa MacLeod, who spoke at the rally, said she will support independent daycare providers at Queen’s Park, and called into question the current changes the Liberals would like to make.

“Mothers will be impacted,” MacLeod said. “I think it’s wrong and I will stand against it.”

MacLeod added, along with PC education critic Garfield Dunlop, plans to start a petition asking the current government to listen to daycare providers about what these proposed changes will actually do to daycare in the province are in the works.

“I want them to listen to you and look you in the eye,” MacLeod said.

The zone includes the city wards of Barrhaven, and Gloucester-South Nepean.

The Barrhaven Business Improvement Area executive director had put out a statement on Oct. 3 that she had decided not to seek election for “personal reasons,” but since her decision came after the Sept. 12 drop-out deadline, Steenbakkers’ name still appeared on the ballot.

Andrea Steenbakkers, who urged south-end voters to choose one of her competitors after deciding not to

“The decision I am making is a personal one,” she wrote in the Oct. 3 statement. “In the last two weeks, we have had a significant and unexpected change at home. My kids need me here right now and I need to be here. I need to put my family first.”

Steenbakkers’ mother, Barrhaven Coun. Jan Harder, said her daughter is evaluating her options in consultation with the school board and is not speaking to reporters at this time.

“They will be working on this together,” Harder said.

In her Oct. 3 statement, Steenbakkers said she “does not want the Ottawa Catholic board to incur expenses in the case that a byelection is required if she is elected.”

Harder said Steenbakkers and both their election teams were “actively campaigning against” her election as trustee.

“We tried very hard to get the message out,” Harder said.

“There was that concerted effort, but I think it’s just a testament to what a great job she would do and

the respect she has in the community,” Harder said. “I’m her mom and I support all my children, but in this case, life happens.”

Until the newly elected representatives get sworn in on Dec. 2, the trustee for Zone 4 is Alison Baizana.

It’s still unclear if the school board could appoint Warren, the second-place candidate, if Steenbakkers withdraws, or if I byelection would have to be held.

“We are still getting clarification on that from elections Ottawa,” said Mardi de Kemp, spokesperson for the Ottawa Catholic School Board.

News – A new general manager has been hired to lead the Recreation Association of the Public Service of Canada.

Tosha Rhodenizer will helm the association, which manages the RA Centre, the largest private not-for-profit recreation and leisure facility in Ottawa which serves thousands of members, the association recently announced.

In touting Rhodenizer’s experience in facilities management, program development, fundraising and not-for-profit management, Diana Monnet, president of the association’s board of directors said, “The RA is tremendously happy to have been able to bring in Ms. Rhodenizer to lead our historic association.

“Our next GM had to have the skills and abilities to lead the RA strategically and inspirationally. The board of directors is confident that Ms. Rhodenizer brings the right mix of skills, entrepreneurial spirit

and experience as leader.”

Rhodenizer most recently worked for seven years at the National Capital Region YMCA-YWCA. While there, she worked as vice-president of health, wellness and family engagement and was responsible for operational and strategic leadership of health, fitness and recreation facilities and programs, licensed and unlicensed childcare and residential and day-camp operations.

Her accomplishments there included managing the Taggart and Ruddy Family Y’s $31.5-million capital improvement project. And she designed a campaign to fund the new Carlingwood Y. She also was instrumental in the development of the Y Kids Academy, said to be the first initiative of its kind in Canada, which saw the enrollment of more than 1,800 Grade 6 students within three years in the program that encourages them and their families to lead more active and

First Shift program launches in Kanata for Ottawa hockey club Brier Dodge

brier.dodge@metroland

Sports - Boys and girls were all smiles at the Canadian Tire Centre on Oct. 23 as they were fitted for their first hockey skates, shoulder pads and helmets.

Parents’ grins were equally as wide as the children placed their equipment in new bags as there was mp cashier ringing up an expensive total in the background.

Players from the Orléans Minor Hockey Association took part in a new program, called the First Shift. The program is run by 30 local hockey clubs nationwide

in partnership with Hockey Canada and Bauer Hockey.

Parents paid $199 for their children, ages six to 10, to get all their hockey equipment along with six on-ice sessions.

The Orléans program will host the six sessions at the Ray Friel Recreation Complex.

In order to be eligible for the program, the child cannot have ever been registered with a hockey club before, which ensures all the program participants are true beginners. It also gives them a first chance to hit the ice with other new players, as initiation level hockey introduces

Three generations Burd family came out to Kanata to see young Dezman get his first hockey gear. His grandpa paid for him to join the First Shift program, and accompanied the youngster along with his father.

“It’s very well organized and excellent for the kids,” said his father, Jason Burd.

Andy Bradbury, 6, said the trip to the Senators home rink to get all of his equipment was “the best day.”

His mother, Jenna Sparks, said he was extremely excited.

“They’ve done a fantastic job,” Sparks said.

The families participated in the welcome event on Oct. 23 at the Canadian Tire Centre, where they got an overview of the program and a fit session on how to get their child ready to hit the ice.

The 45 participants were given absolutely all their equipment, including a hockey bag.

(Parents) don t want to spend $1,000 knowing eight weeks later their child may lose interest, said Bob Picard, director of competitive hockey for the Orléans Minor Hockey Association.

Mother puts decorative touch on salt pork barrel

M

other never quite got used to having the salt pork barrel in

the kitchen.

Once again she lamented that on her very first visit to the farm in Northcote, when she came face to face with the sauerkraut and salt pork barrels, smack in the middle of the kitchen, she was ready to race right back to New York.

She said she was greatly relieved when Father assured her the sauerkraut barrel would be moved to the summer kitchen as soon as the brine had settled, where it would freeze solid. But that still left the little salt-pork barrel.â&#x20AC;Żâ&#x20AC;Ż Father said it needed the warmth of the kitchen, and besides, it had sat in the very same spot for three generations, and furthermore, there was no other place to put it.

And so every day, once fall had settled in, there sat the lidless barrel, with nothing but a big dinner plate covering the opening, and ever so much smaller than the one that held the sauerkraut. But as far as Mother was concerned, it was a real eyesore.

And thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s when Mother

MARY COOK Memories got the idea that she would make a skirt for the barrel.

She had enough Dan River material left over from two blouses she had made for Audrey and me, and it would do nicely to cover the unsightly salt pork barrel.

So one morning, after we had heard the old foot pedal churning away on the Singer sewing machine long after we had gone to bed, we came down to find the little barrel covered from top to bottom with a mauve and yellow flowered skirt. Since there was no lid on the barrel (the plate had been removed), Mother had simply made the skirt with a round inset at the top, and both Audrey and I thought the whole idea added a lovely touch to the kitchen.

â&#x20AC;&#x153;Nonsense,â&#x20AC;? we could hear Father mutter in his saucer of green tea when he came in from his morning chores in the barn, scanning a look in the corner of the kitchen near the ice box. Mother paid him no heed. She had even moved one of the straight backed kitchen chairs, the only one with arms on it and the one Father favoured, to sit on at the dinner table, beside the little barrel, and commented that it now looked like a little end table.

She reminded us not to set anything on top, though, as the small circle of material covering the top wouldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t hold.

So there it sat, adding a bit of colour to that corner of the kitchen. Father added

â&#x20AC;&#x153;nuisanceâ&#x20AC;? to his complaints about the Dan River skirt, because now he had to take it off to fork out a slab of saltpork. Often, he just let it lie in a heap on the floor by the little barrel, which annoyed Mother almost as much as when Father slurped his tea out of his saucer.

Aunt Bertha on the next farm thought the skirt was a lovely idea and said she was going to do the same thing to their little pork barrel. Everyone thought it was fine except Father.

Our minister never seemed to have a reason to pay a visit.

But his call always seemed to be at mealtime, which Mother said assured him of at least one good meal that day.

And so that Saturday, just before noon dinner, in walked the minister, Bible in hand, and even though it was a cold fall day, with snow flurries dusting through the air, the sweat was pouring off his

round, fat face.

Mother took his coat, and told him to â&#x20AC;&#x153;please be seated, Reverend.â&#x20AC;? He headed for the armed chair, plopped down like a sack of grain, wiped his face with the sleeve of his black shirt, and placed his bible on top of the pork barrel.â&#x20AC;Żâ&#x20AC;Ż It was a big Bible, and well worn. It was the one he carried up to the pulpit every Sunday.

Well, it sunk into the pork barrel, like a stone in a wash tub, taking most off the skirt with it. He looked at it for what seemed like a full minute, and then reached down into the barrel and pulled it out. It was covered with salt water, and brine crystals had already settled on the cover of the Bible.

Mother rushed over, grabbed the Bible and was wiping it up and down on her apron as she headed for the dish pan and a dry tea towel.

The minister decided heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d be on his way -- heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d be back on another day, he said, never taking his eyes off the pork barrel, now with most of the skirt inside it. It looked like the Bible was finished.

But that Sunday, there he was, walking up the aisle to the front of the church with the four members of the choir, and the battered Bible clutched in his hand.

He always nodded to those in the pews, but he didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t give us as much as glance.

Emerson swore he could smell salt pork off the minister as he passed us at our usual place in the very front row.

Farm Boy Local Food Fair made a tasty impression

By David Johnston metroland media

Farm Boyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Local Food Fair, Oct. 28 at the Train Yards location 665 Industrial Ave., showcased the wide variety of quality products to be found in Farm Boy stores.

The store was busy all day as curious customers sampled tasty treats, meats, sauces and more.

Farm Boy is committed to supporting local producers. The relationship with local food suppliers is a tasteful blend of everything from soup to nuts, almost literally. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We currently have over 40 local supplier products in our stores - 17 were on hand sampling their products for the food fair and 24 new local vendors met with our Farm Boy buyers to pitch their products,â&#x20AC;? says Carolyn Trudel, Farm Boyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Director of Marketing. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Small producers are unique and know that quality is what will make their product stand out.

Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a great relationship that our customers appreciate.â&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x153;Our stores are brimming with unique and tasty locally-made prod-

ucts and weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re always on the lookout for more, says Carolyn.â&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x153;We carry locally made products in all categories â&#x20AC;&#x201C; produce,, grocery, meat, seafood, dairy, deli, cheese, floral and bakery.

Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s the kind of event that can make all the difference for a small business trying to get established.

Hannaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Bakery, makers of Perfect Pita, is a small, local company with a big future. Owner Charbel Hanna is proud that his product is popular at Farm Boy and across the region. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Our pita is known as â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Healthy Choiceâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; because it has no preservatives, no sugar and no fat,â&#x20AC;? says Hanna. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We are happy to have our products sold through Farm Boy stores. It has been a tremendous advantage for our business.â&#x20AC;?

Similarly Emily Peachey of Peachey Honey Farm had good things to say about working with Farm Boy. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We love our relationship with Farm Boy. It has really helped our business become established.â&#x20AC;?

Farm Boy customers were all smiles at the Food Fair. Eager to sample the delicious offerings, the store was buzzing with ex-

Auntie Looâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Treats Inc. owner Amanda Lunan was on hand at the Farm Boy Food Fair to hand out samples of her delicious, gluten-free treats. Picking up some desserts is Oliver McDonald.

Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve always been like a local fresh market store with many locally made products on our shelves. Our customers ENJOY THE UNIQUE SHOPPING experience we provide, unlike traditional grocery stores that carry mostly the same national brands. We fill our stores with unique and tasty products made in small batches by local artisans with high quality ingredients. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We welcome all producers interested in speaking with our buyers to email their local product suggestions to fbmail@farmboy. ca.

Gingerbread, apple combine for tasty upside down cake Lifestyle - Gingerbread is often served with applesauce.

In this twist, applesauce is in the batter itself, providing moistness, and more apples are used as a topping. Preparation time: 15 minutes. Baking time: 35 to 40 minutes. Serves 12.

Ingredients

* 375 ml (1-1/2 cups) all-purpose flour * 15 ml (1 tbsp) ground ginger * 5 ml (1 tsp) baking soda * 2 ml (1/2 tsp) each ground cinnamon and salt * 75 ml (1/3 cup) each vegetable oil and molasses * 125 ml (1/2 cup) packed dark brown sugar * 1 egg * 125 ml (1/2 cup) unsweetened applesauce * 25 ml (2 tbsp) minced ginger

Topping * 50 ml (1/4 cup) butter, melted * 175 ml (3/4 cup) packed dark brown sugar * 500 ml (2 cups) sliced, peeled apples (about two) Preparation

In a medium bowl, combine the flour, ground ginger, baking soda, cinnamon and salt, and set aside.

In a large bowl, beat together the oil, molasses and

brown sugar. Next, beat in the egg until it’s smooth. Stir in the applesauce and minced ginger until it’s smooth, and set aside.

For the topping, pour the melted butter in a 1.5-litre (nine-inch) round cake pan, brushing butter up the sides.

Spread the brown sugar evenly over the butter. Arrange the apples on top.

Stir the dry ingredients into the egg mixture until it’s just moistened. Pour the mixture over the apples. Bake in a 180 C (350 F) oven for 35 to 40 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the centre comes out clean. Let it cool in the pan on a wire rack for five minutes. Run a thin spatula around the edge of the cake to loosen, and then invert it onto a serving plate.

Algonquin College men win provincial soccer title Eric Thompson

Sports - They came in with the best record in the province and after two hard-fought games, the Algonquin Thunder men’s soccer team proved they were the best team in Ontario late last month. Now a national tournament awaits.

The teamed capped the title run with a 1-0 extra-time win over the Humber Hawks to capture Algonquin’s first provincial gold medal since 2010.

“We just battled,” said head coach Mike Gagliano. “Guys with injuries, guys that were sore. We went from a battle

Eric thompson

Isaac Johnson rises up among a sea of Humber players to head the ball during the second half of the OCAA championship game on Oct. 25. Algonquin would go on to win the game 1-0, in extra-time.

yesterday to a battle today and we came out on top. That’s all you could ask of the guys. It was absolutely brilliant; everyone came together.”

The game was revenge for last year’s final, a 1-0 win that saw the Hawks came out on top.

Kishoyian Kipusi found the back of the net late in the first half of extra time on a feed from Jemuel Paul, and it would be the only score the Thunder needed. Led by goalie Simon Brown – the tournament MVP – the team desperately clung to the lead for the final 15 minutes, despite fierce pressure put on by the Hawks.

“Our team always plays with a lot of heart,” said Brown. “We didn’t have most of the possession today, but certainly when we had it, we finished our chances when we needed to. I knew we were going to push through for the last 20 minutes because we’ve worked all season for that.”

Algonquin found it difficult to create chances early with high winds blowing in their face for the first half of the game. When opportunities did present themselves, each team took their chances missing them.

“We knew our defensive shape was good enough so we just said, ‘Let’s defend for the first 45,’” said Paul. “We knew we could bring it home

in the next half. We didn’t; so we said ‘This is where our fitness comes in, this is where we bring in the work.’”

Players collapsed on the field following the win, not only exhausted from the goldmedal game, but the semifinal game on Friday. Algonquin fell behind 2-0 to the Sheridan Bruins before scoring four straight goals to move on 4-2.

back on track.”

To round out the awards Maher Husseini was recognized as a tournament all-star, Johnson was named OCAA East defender of the year, and Brown was the East’s goalie of the year.

Algonquin will soon see Sheridan again, as they will host the CCAA National Championship between Nov. 5 and 8.

the Thunder, while Isaac Johnson and Trevor Turner each had one.

“I expected nothing less,” said Stephane Emard, who was named OCAA player of the year on Oct. 23. “This team has come together in a short time. We’ve stuck together, we worked hard. Previously we’ve had some tough times in the past years. We have a rich history; it’s nice to get it

Never forget President of the Osgoode branch 589 of the Royal Canadian Legion, Sam McGee, salutes after placing a wreath at the foot of the cenotaph in front of the Osgoode Township Historical Society building during the communityâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Remembrance Day ceremony on Nov. 1.

The importance of planning and designing your project Take some pictures, sketch a few mock-ups, and if you have it available, use computer software to create a virtual version of your final project.

When planning your outdoor space Nepeanâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s own Canlok Stone canlok.com understands it can be overwhelming, especially when it comes to finding the right landscaper for the job. However, many in the Ottawa-Carlton region have found that some research and a focus on your projectâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s goal can be significant factors in making it successful.

Adam Kveton/Metroland

Before finding a landscaper, take some time to learn about your space by taking good measurements and considering

exactly what it is you want to do with it. This can go a long way when working with your contractor to figure out how to best arrive at your desired outcome.

If youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re working on the project by yourself, planning and getting accurate measurements is even more essential, as without them your project likely wonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t be completed correctly, if at all.

Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s also important to visualize what your space looks like now and what it will become.

Additionally, always keep in mind your spaceâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s final goals.

Are you looking to create an outdoor kitchen complete with a BBQ or is your main goal a quiet garden with a tranquil waterfall? It may seem obvious, but each project has different needs. When youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re working with your landscaper, take time out to ensure the materials such as stones are appropriate for the job at hand.

To make your project an easy and successful one, reach out to Canlok Stone. With 43 years of experience, they know how to help you complete your project correctly, safely and with ease all at a great price as well. To learn more about Canlok Stone, visit them online canlok.com, call 613-828-7686 or visit their showroom in person at 950 Moodle Drive in Nepean.
