YEAR IN REVIEW

Jessica Cunha

jessica.cunha@metroland.com

Community - It’s not quite the plot line of the Mighty Ducks movie, but it’s close.

An orphanage hockey team from the town of Chausy, Belarus, took home two silver medals in provincial competitions against more privileged children in a Belarusian league.

The main reason for their success is thanks to the generosity of Kanata Canadian Tire owner Dave Malcomson and his son Allan.

The Malcomsons – heavily involved with the charity Canadian Aid for Chernobyl and the Chausy Orphanage – sent

hockey equipment to the children in 2008.

In 2010, the two men, along with friend Brian Knowles, hosted the first hockey school for the children, which they repeated this past fall with Knowles’ son Shawn.

“We had a request from the children: they dreamed to have a hockey team at the orphanage. They would be the only orphanage in the country with such an opportunity,” said Dave Shaw, humanitarian director for Canadian Aid for Chernobyl.

“It only provided part of the dream when there was nobody there to train the kids. Dave and Allan and their friends came over twice now and put on a hockey school. It made all the difference.

“It’s one of the most significant projects.”

“We’ve been going over on a regular basis since 1998.

And that’s where the Malcomson family got right involved with us,” said Shaw.

“They were one of the very first families to sponsor a child. Their commitment just grew from there.”

The charity delivers humanitarian aid to areas that are still heavily affected by the Chernobyl catastrophe that happened in 1986 when a nuclear plant exploded.

“Shortly after that, they

went through the Soviet break-up,” said Shaw, who lives in Brockville, where the charity is based. “They’ve been suffering. Not only have they lost 40 per cent of their land but they were spun into an economic crisis.”

Volunteers travel with the containers of goods and monitor where they go. Shaw has been to Chernobyl 44 times since the charity was created.

“We follow through on anything we do ourselves so there’s nothing lost on the black market,” he said, adding they focus on orphanages

and families with lower incomes and children with disabilities.

“What’s wonderful about helping is these are well-educated young children and the education system is actually something to be respected. If you can give them the tools to work with, they can absolutely turn around and make a difference, a tremendous impact on their own, giving back to their country or their own quality of life.”

Malcomsons.

In 2011, when the country was in financial disarray, any orphan with living relatives was sent back home no matter the living conditions.

“Two-thirds of the children in the orphanage are there because of parental abuse, not because they’re true orphans,” said Dave Malcomson. “So we took the money we would have used for the hockey school and we paid to bring these kids back to the orphanage.”

They also built the Malcomson Home for Family Living on the grounds of the orphanage.

Growing up in an orphanage leaves many without basic living skills. The Malcomson Home provides living quarters for six people, as well as a supervisor, where young adults learn how to run

a household, manage finances and have the opportunity to finish school.

“They’re learning to look after themselves,” said Allan.

But a large source of pride is the hockey school. “(It’s) just so heart-warming,” said Dave. “It’s all about the joy we bring them and in return all the joy they bring us.”

The hockey school features a learn-to-skate program for beginners, a hockey school for more advanced skills, as well as a goalie clinic.

One of the skating drills includes learning how to jump over hockey sticks, fall, and roll and get back up.

“Well this kid doesn’t just roll over, this kid does a summersault. That’s how he does this drill. I tell ya, it’s the coolest thing I’ve seen,” said Dave. “I think this is one of

the most special things that happened the last time we were there.”

Both Allan and Dave were presented with certificates of appreciation from the mayor of the region for the work they have done.

Aside from Canadian Aid for Chernobyl, the Malcomsons are heavily involved in their community as well, sponsoring local hockey teams in Kanata, Stittsville, Richmond and West Carleton, as well as supporting the Do It For Daron initiative. Both are also extremely humble about their involvement.

“It’s not about us,” said Dave, adding he lives by the quote: “For one that is given much, much is expected.”

Beaverbrook deems apartments unacceptable Teron Road apartment and condo proposal called ‘ludicrous’ and ‘out of whack’ News - Beaverbrook residents roundly rejected a proposed seniors’ apartment and condo complex at Teron and March roads.

Billed by local developer Phil Bottriell as an eco-friendly place for local seniors to retire after they no longer want to maintain a home and yard, the nine-storey building and adjacent three-storey condos would be positioned close to the street on Teron Road. Although the triangular property is 1.6 hectares in size, only a small part of it can be developed because a hydro corridor runs through the remainder of the site, near March Road.

The proposal angered approximately 50 residents who gathered at the Kanata United Church on Dec. 17.

Shouts of “It destroys Beaverbrook,” and “It confiscates the rights of the residents next door,” punctuated the meeting, which was held so city planners could get feedback on the proposal as part of their review of the rezoning request.

Kanata North Coun. Marianne Wilkinson called the proposal “completely out of whack.”

Fifteen metres would separate the new three-storey condos from existing two-storey homes in the Bethune Condominiums. Marlene Young just moved in there, directly beside the proposed development, and she said she’ll move if it gets approved.

“It’s a total loss of privacy,” she said. “It’s ludicrous.”

Jim Birtch, who lives on nearby Varly Lane, said the area is already “doing its part” to reduce sprawl because townhomes and rowhouses are higher density housing than singlefamily homes.

Kanata forefathers Bill Teron and John Mlacak decried the proposal,

saying it would set the stage to undermine their vision for the community.

Teron Road was not meant to handle the amount of traffic the new building would generate, Teron said.

It was meant to be a “limited access parkway” that prevented heavy cutthrough traffic, Teron said, but the new building would change that.

“This is just the tipping point,” he said.

“As soon as people discover they can build an apartment, they will,” Mlacak added.

Teron said he knew the area would need apartments as well as homes, and he planned for them to be built in the Kanata town centrenot the low-rise communities like Beaverbrook. He recommended that the development application be put on hold while the city prepares to study a potential heritage designation for Beaverbrook – something the city committed to do around 2015 as part of its Official Plan update.

The development was originally proposed in the spring of 2012 as a 15-storey tower and there have been six public meetings held to discuss four versions of the project, Bottriell

Bethune Condominiums resident Marlene Young points out to Coun.

Marianne Wilkinson how an apartment and condo-complex proposal would affect her home next door. said.

Based on public feedback, the proposal evolved from a 174-unit building into two structures, including townhomes. The latest proposal that the city’s planning department is reviewing features a tiered building with around 120 units.

The balance of the site that can’t

be developed because of the hydro easement would be landscaped with public pathways and garden plots for residents in the new building under the proposal.

building-inspection business, said he wants to use a geothermal system to heat the building and water cisterns to recycle rainwater.

“My goal is to make it a step above any other condominium construction you see in the area,” he said.

The idea is a good one because it will enable people to continue living in their community as they age, Bottreil said.

Various other ideas for the site had come forward in the past, including a medical office, commercial office or even a park-and-ride lot, Bottriell said.

“Communities do change. The needs of people,” Bottriell said.

Allen Coldham, a Bethune resident, had a question for Bottriell during the meeting, but Coldham was miffed to discover the developer had left unnoticed after his presentation.

The city has decided to extend the deadline for members of the public to comment on the development proposal. Comments can be submitted by email to louise.sweet-lindsay@ ottawa.ca until Jan. 10, 2014.

The Kanata Beaverbrook Community Association and the councillor strongly urged residents to submit comments about the application.

“Don’t take for granted that it will get approved,” Wilkinson said.

Coming home: Kanata CFL player drafted by Redblacks Tyler Hooper

Kourier-Standard

Sports - A Kanata family is looking forward to spending more time with their son after he was drafted by Ottawa’s CFL football team, the Ottawa Redblacks.

Fullback John Delahunt was selected during the non-import portion of the CFL expansion draft by the Redblacks on Dec 16. Delahunt grew up in Glen Cairn and played for the Ottawa Sooners after he attended high school at Holy Trinity Catholic High School.

He played tight end at the University of Connecticut before switching to fullback when he joined the Hamilton Tiger-Cats last year. Dela-

at All Saints Catholic High School, said John will have lots of support from family and friends when he plays in Ottawa.

“It’s awesome,” John said of being drafted by the Redblacks, “(It’s) a dream come true.”

John said he got the news when he was driving home from visiting his girlfriend in Connecticut.

He also said he thought the Redblacks organization “did a great job in the draft,” and he looks forward to meeting his teammates in the future.

hunt was part of the TigerCats’ Grey Cup run which saw them defeated in the finals by the Saskatchewan Roughriders’ this past November.

“It was a real gift,” said Dwight Delahunt, John’s father, when he heard the news of his son moving to Ottawa.

Dwight, who is a principal at St. Michael School in Fitzroy Harbour, added his son has “a wonderful opportunity to be a part of the rebirth of football in Ottawa.”

Both John’s dad and mother, Anne Murphy, made trips to see their son play in Connecticut and in Hamilton. However, both are excited that his games will be much closer to home.

Child poverty is everyone’s responsibility

J

ust before Christmas, federal Industry Minister James Moore found himself apologizing for some comments he made about child poverty on a Vancouver radio show.

In the interview that triggered controversy, the MP for Port Moody-WestwoodPort Coquitlam was asked a question about a new report that found B.C. has the worst child poverty rates in Canada.

Moore answered as follows: “We’ve never been wealthier as a country than we are right now.”

“Certainly, we want to make sure that kids go to school full-bellied, but is that always the government’s job to be there to serve people their breakfast? Empowering families with more power and resources so they can feed their own children, I think is a good thing.

“The government … is it my job to feed my neighbour’s child? I don’t think

BRYNNA LESLIE Capital Muse so.”

In his apology, Moore admitted his comments – which he believed were taken out of context – were insensitive.

Unfortunately, the off-thecuff response reveals much about the pass-the-buck mentality around poverty in this country. That they came from a Conservative cabinet minister highlights something that’s represented in much of federal policy these days – outright hostility toward the collective, the working class and the working poor – in other words, the majority of people in this country.

The government is far from empowering families. Over

the past seven years, with Conservatives at the helm, we’ve seen a steady erosion of salaried positions with benefits, at the same time the cost of living has skyrocketed. From food inflation to a peak in housing costs, no measures have been put in place to give us the resources to feed our own children.

Nevermind that the government is bracing for a full-fledged attack on federal public service unions in 2014.

It’s a harkening back to the overt class warfare launched

by Margaret Thatcher in 1970s Britain. And it’s not going to be pretty.

All the while, kids are

starving in this country. Lots of them. It’s estimated that between 13 and 15 per cent of children live in poverty, a number that has increased since the late 1990s.

The Conference Board of Canada’s annual report card of countries in the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development, found Canada ranks 15th out of 17 peer countries for its handling of child poverty.

“In 1989, the Canadian House of Commons unanimously resolved to eliminate child poverty by the year 2000,” writes the Conference Board. “And there was some initial success; the child

poverty rate fell from 15.8 per cent in the mid-1980s to 12.8 in the mid-1990s. Since then, however, the rate has increased – to 15.1 per cent in the late 2000s – reversing earlier progress.”

This is a shameful statistic, considering, in Moore’s words, “We’ve never been wealthier as a country.”

Moore is technically correct to suggest that school breakfast programs and many other poverty-fighting measures fall under the jurisdiction of the provinces. But the fact that the Conservative government is not only complacent, but hostile, about child poverty measures is

cause for concern.

Kids that live in poverty will have poorer health and education outcomes than those who don’t.

They are also more prone to mental illness and behavioural issues. If one in six children in my kids’ classrooms is going to school without breakfast, it is definitely my responsibility to feed them, and at least part of that should be through our tax dollars.

Because the government – much as it likes to think of itself as a business – is there to level the playing field and make this a great country for all of us.

Another good year

T

he year 2013 has been many things.

Here in Ottawa, it has been a year of new beginnings. A stadium is in the works, tunnels are bored beneath the streets, two new sporting institutions are taking shape, and official plans have been ratified to guide our city into the future.

It was a year of a terrible tragedy, when the lives of six people were lost during a horrific bus crash near the Fallowfield Transitway station. Dozens were injured. We can only hope that the lessons learned from that tragic moment in time will help us prevent such a thing from ever happening again.

It has been a year of controversy. Daniel Alfredsson snuck out of town in the middle of the night. Tall towers have been planned and opposed, heritage has been preserved and destroyed, buses have been diverted, highways constricted by construction. Bridges have been delayed, bridges have been abandoned, and bridges have been mired in mismanagement. It was a bad year for bridges. It wasn’t a particularly good year for electronic bus passes either.

It has been a year of consistency. Winter was cold, summer was steamy and property tax increases were kept to a minimum. Bluesfest still rocked.

Our mayor still managed to appear at every pancake

breakfast and barbecue he could.

Elsewhere, political uncertainty and scandal were hallmarks of 2013. Ontario witnessed the arrival of Kathleen Wynne as premier. She has been dogged by the legacy of her predecessor, and Queen’s Park has teetered on the brink of an election ever since.

On Parliament Hill, things haven’t been much different. The Senate expense scandal has gobbled up great chunks of time in both the red chamber and House of Commons. When it wasn’t the trials and tribulations of Mike Duffy, Pamela Wallin and Patrick Brazeau leading the evening news or topping the front pages, there was always Toronto’s Rob Ford there to fill the vacuum.

Yet through it all, Ottawa has a great deal to be thankful for. Despite federal public service job cuts, the city is still faring better economically than many across the province. The light rail system currently under construction will revolutionize transit and spur development across the city.

Ottawa is a wonderfully green city, with parks and open spaces easily accessible to all who live here. It is a vibrant city, with culture to spare for those who wish to seek it out. The past year has been many things, but it has proven once again how fortunate we are to live in the nation’s capital.

The heartwarming technology of Christmas

T

he technology is lining up pretty well for Christmas this year. Santa’s helpers at the mall will, for a small fee, put your child’s photo with the big guy on a flash drive for you. So there’s that worry taken care of.

It needs hardly to be said that online shopping grows every year. People don’t have to go out to be among other people, except to get their flash drives from Santa’s helpers.

Also, the word has just come in that it is now possible to buy Christmas trees online.

Home Depot in the U.S. has put trees on its website. Ikea sells them in Britain and there’s another big company in Sweden that does it too.

Meanwhile, Amazon is working on a delivery drone. This is a great relief to those people who thought they might have to go out of the house this season and interact with other people.

And there’s this other advantage, found in a newspaper quote from a happy California online tree shopper – “no needles in the car!”

Yes. It’s such a drag at this time of year to have a car that smells like Christmas trees. It reminds you of, well, Christmas.

So things are moving right along. Not that there isn’t room for improvement. Some

CHARLES GORDON Funny Town children are not being co-operative. They are becoming less and less enthusiastic about having their pictures taken.

This may have to do with the fact that every adult they know now has a camera, often disguised as a phone, and the children are constantly forced to pose. And now they have to stand in line in the mall so that their parents can get them and Santa on a flash drive so that they can email photos instead of writing Christmas cards.

But you know, progress is inevitable. Some day it will possible to have robots that will look like children and be more co-operative in front of cameras.

There still remains the necessity of going outside for certain things, such as the picture of Santa and your robot. But surely, if we can

put a man on the moon, we can fix this.

Which leads us, reluctantly, to the following heart-warming Christmas story.

The Christmas Drone It had been a difficult day and Bob was wondering whether this might turn out to be the worst Christmas ever. First the children had, for the fourth visit in a row, refused to have their picture taken with Santa. There would be no flash drive this Christmas.

Then the outdoor Christmas lights refused to turn on automatically, which meant that Bob had to go outside to flip a switch.

Then the WiFi went down. “Oh no!” cried Bob. “How will I finish my Christmas shopping?”

The Christmas cards were all stuck in the community mailbox with care and the Christmas tree he had ordered online was nowhere in sight.

When all of a sudden there arose such a clatter on the roof that Bob wondered he would have to get new insulation. But he sprang out of his house to see what was the matter, hoping he could remember the access code to get back in, and lo and behold his eyes beheld a tiny little airplane.

He was hoping that the tiny little airplane could talk, otherwise it would be difficult to

“Where did you come from?” he asked the tiny little airplane.

“I’m The Christmas Drone,” the tiny little airplane said. “I come from Amazon to bring presents to all the little children of the world and their lazy parents.”

“Did you bring my Christmas tree?” Bob asked.

“Not my job,” the Christmas Drone said.

“The Ikea drone should be along any minute.”

“This will be the happiest Christmas ever!” said Bob, although, to tell the truth, he was getting a bit tired of the clatter on the rooftop.

Police lay 35 charges during downtown safety blitz Ottawa police

News - The Ottawa police, in partnership with the Alcohol and Gaming Commission of Ontario, city bylaw and OC Transpo special constables, conducted a community safety project in the entertainment districts of downtown Ottawa.

The project was designed to address ongoing community concerns in the downtown core.

These are associated with disturbances, noise, public intoxication, drug use, aggressive driving and property damage.

This project took place on Dec. 6 to 8, and Dec. 13 to

14 and 15.

“The goal of the community safety project is to promote the safe and lawful enjoyment of downtown streets, sidewalks, parks, transitway properties and businesses,” said Ottawa police Insp. Chris Rheaume, central district.

“We are working with the

local community and residents to address their concerns regarding nuisance offences. Our approach to violators is education through the enforcement of municipal bylaws, provincial statutes and criminal code offences.”

Over the course of the project, the combined agen-

cies laid a total of 538 provincial offence notices.

They fell under several different acts such as: the Liquor License Act, the Safe Streets Act, the Trespass to Property Act, the Highway Traffic Act, the Compulsory Automobile Insurance Act, the Smokefree Ontario Act, and Ottawa bylaws.

Thirty five criminal charges were laid under the Criminal Code.

Eight arrest warrants were executed over the weekend and 23 inspections were conducted on licensed establishments which resulted in five follow-up investigations related to liquor license infractions.

WEJ students make and sell bracelets for wishes Tyler Hooper

Kourier-Standard

Community – A representative of a local charity visited a Kanata middle school class after students raised $750 for charity by making and selling colourful bracelets.

Shannon Keeling’s homeroom grade 7/8 split class at W. Erskine Johnston Public School raised the money for The Children’s Wish Foundation of Canada. The children raised the money by making

and selling colourful bracelets made out of rubber bands called “Rainbow Loom bracelets.”

After the money was raised, Keeling and her students invited Janet-lee Ferris, resource development coordinator of the national capital chapter of the foundation, to visit the classroom on Dec. 17.

Ferris thanked the students, gave the students a presentation on some of the past wishes granted by the foundation

and brought in a large cheque for the students to sign.

The idea for a fundraiser originated in early November after one of Keeling’s students, Rebecca Lloyd, began making the bracelets, which prompted other kids to ask to purchase them. Keeling approached Lloyd about the idea of raising money for a charity.

After some thought, Lloyd decided the money raised would go to The Children’s Wish Foundation.

According to Keeling, both

D.T.S.M.

Driving Schools Inc.

Lloyd and Rebecca Yee were instrumental in organizing the fundraising campaign.

“We posted up some posters and the flood of kids started,” Keeling said, “Every recess there were kids coming in to buy bracelets.”

Keeling said a lot of the students purchased the bracelets as Christmas presents for their family. Bracelets range in price from 50 cents to $2.50 depending on size and colour.

The class started with a goal of a $100, but Keeling and her class realized they could set their ambitions higher.

“Somebody suggested, ‘why don’t we aim really, really high, and go for $500,’” Keeling said.

At the end of the fundraiser, the class topped their goal and raised $750.

Upon reaching their goal, Keeling and her class contacted the Children’s Wish Foundation, which agreed to send Ferris to thank the class and give a brief presentation.

The students gave a presentation of their own, showing what they had accomplished before Ferris addressed the class.

Ferris said she was “very surprised” that the class raised so much, adding it was “phenomenal.”

Ferris said this kind of classroom fundraising is becoming more popular. “(They realize) kids their age are not feeling well and have illnesses, and they can help grant a wish for them, which is fantastic,” Ferris said.

The bracelets were constructed during recess and class time and every student in the class contributed to making the bracelets.

A

study on the endangered Blanding’s turtles in the South March Highlands has found the species is at risk of local extinction.

Current and past developments pose an “immediate

threat on the already at-risk animal,” said the report, completed by Dillon Consulting Limited, contracted by the City of Ottawa. Kanata North Coun. Marianne Wilkinson hosted a meeting on March 18 to discuss the study.

A

report looking at stormwater management concerns in the Shirley’s Brook and Watt’s Creek area has found five road crossings that don’t meet the city’s criteria for overtopping. “(There) appears to be a bit of a spill,” said Darlene Conway, senior project manager at a public meeting discussing the study on March 18.

“There is erosion but it’s not considered excessive.”

City Councillor, Kanata north ANOTHER YEAR HAS PAST

As we approach the end of 2013 it is a time to reflect on the achievements of the past year and look forward to a New Year and the accomplishments to come.

2013 saw a lot happening in Kanata North. The biggest event was the opening of the Richcraft Recreation Complex Kanata on Dec. 5th. I’ve been involved with this project since 2006, in planning, fundraising and supporting its construction, so opening day was a great one and the facility is a wonderful addition to our area. It’s already busy, although programming won’t be underway until January. 2013 also saw the start of construction on the Outlet Mall, announcement of a BASS Pro shops, construction and the first homeowners in Arcadia and Richardson Ridge, as well as continuing construction in the Broughton lands, Brookside, Klondike Crossing and the Lepine apartments. New restaurants were added in Centrum, and a McDonald’s approved for March Road. Beaverbrook was successful in having the apartment at 2 The Parkway reduced from an 18-storey building to 7-storeys and stood out against a 15-storey application on Teron Road.

A community garden was undertaken for Morgan’s Grant, and the public school board had three school projects approved for Kanata North. A traffic study on speeding on Knudson commenced, and Council approved a heritage study process for Beaverbrook. In the new Official Plan approved by the City, I was able to exempt the business park from height limitations and to adjust the Transitway plans to include light rail to Bayshore and bus transitways along March Road, and from March Road to Terry Fox. Many enjoyed my International Women’s Day Breakfast, July picnic and Expo 55+, as well as a new event honouring community volunteers. The Kanata North BIA hired an Executive Director and completed their first year of operations. There were nine Town Halls and many more meetings with community members and City staff to deal with the many issues that arrive every day – a very busy but satisfying year.

WHAT DOES 2014 HOLD

Next year will see the opening of the stores and housing areas underway in 2013. A full design plan for the new community to be built north along March Road will be completed; our new Library will be opened; Cisco will move forward on their expansion; and, work will proceed on getting the Nortel Campus ready for National Defence Employees in 2015. As well, the Equestrian Park expansion will move forward, the turf field will open at the RRCK and new parks will be developed in the new communities. School construction will be underway along with the 3rd Lepine apartment building. A final plan will be approved for the City-owned Town Centre lands, an underpass constructed under Terry Fox, a new Park and Ride constructed at Terry Fox and Innovation, and new announcements, not yet contemplated, will come forward. I anticipate another stellar year in Kanata North.

PARKING ISSUES MEETING

On January 16th at 7pm at the RRCK, 4101 Innovation Drive, I’ll be holding a public consultation on parking issues on Ayton Lane. A Bylaw representative will be present to answer questions on parking extensions on front lawns and the difficulty in having emergency vehicles and snow equipment passing through the area. The meeting is open to others in the community with similar concerns.

JANUARY TOWN HALL MEETING

On Tuesday, January 21st, at 7 pm come to the RRCK, 4101 Innovation Drive, for the first Town Hall Meeting on 2014. Topics include Klondike Road construction, plans for a new public school, seasonal issues and more. Contact me to add your issues and check my website near the date for a full agenda.

Bridlewood sees rash of thefts from vehicles Continued from page 19

C

hris Neil’s dream team won’t score many goals but they’re sure to win a few hearts.

The team, made up of six children from the greater Ottawa area who are receiving treatment and respite services for life-limiting illnesses, are leading the charge for this year’s Walk Roll & Run fundraiser at Scotiabank Place on June 16.

H

ospice Care Ottawa will host an information session on its new McCurdy Drive property on June 19.

The organization, formerly known as Ottawa Hospice Services, recently purchased the building, located at 110 McCurdy Dr., from Trinity Presbyterian Church to help expand its services in the west end.

H

alf of the Ontario musicians advancing to the nationals for the Canadian Music Competition hail from Kanata.

Five students from the community will compete in the national finals – touted as the country’s premiere competition for classical musicians under 30 – which will take place from June 21 to July 4 in Sherbrooke, Que.

T

he Bridlewood area has seen a rash of thefts from vehicles recently.

In the past two weeks, 28 thefts in the south Kanata neighbourhood have been reported to police. Ottawa police Const. Lori Fahey, who works out of the Kanata and Stittsville community police centre, issued a crime alert for the area.

T

he Western Ottawa Community Resource Centre celebrated its past year with an open house and scavenger hunt on June 24.

Cathy Jordan, executive director of the centre, said four words really encompass the work completed over the 2012-13 year: partnership, community, commitment and passion.

“We do it because we want to make a difference in people’s lives,” said Jordan.

“Here at the Western Ottawa Community Resource Centre, they are truly more than just words.”

A

new residential community planned along March Road as part of the urban boundary expansion was anticipating about 3,000 residential units and 8,000 people, according to the project manager.

Glen Cairn Public School senior kindergarten students Jack Coburn, 5, and Dominic Lachaine, 6, count pennies for the Free the Children fundraiser on Friday, Feb. 8.

It was standing room only as more than 150 residents packed into the hall at St. John’s Anglican Church on June 26 to hear about the plans for expanding the urban boundary up March Road.

Currently, the area was part of the West Carleton-March ward, but will be added to Kanata North once it’s complete. The earliest construction could start is sometime in 2016.

H

ospice Care Ottawa, which operates the May Court and Friends of Hospice Ottawa, took possession of the key to the former Trinity Presbyterian Church on McCurdy Drive in Katimavik on June 27.

The organization said it had plans to add a 10-bed residential and day hospice on the grounds by 2016, and needed to raise the $6-million to open the residential hospice. To date, around $1.7 million has been collected.

F

ears over the potential risk of flooding on land near the Beaver Pond were eased by a city report.

News - A one-way bicycle lane is confounding residents of Old Ottawa East.

The bike lane, proposed for only one side of Lees Avenue, will be part of the street’s reconstruction next summer.

Lees Avenue will be rebuilt between Main Street and Chestnut Street starting in July of 2014. That’s at the same time the street will be blocked off at the bridge over Highway 417 while bridge construction is underway.

The project won’t include replacing any underground utilities – just the resurfacing of the street and streetscaping.

A few tweaks to the design mean the street will continue to be two lanes – one in each direction – with parking along the north side of the street and a dedicated bicycle lane on the south side.

“The city’s proposal tries to strike a good balance between better cycling and residents’ need for on-street parking,” said Old Ottawa East Community Association president John Dance.

But the one-sided lane baffled Dance, who pointed out cyclists don’t just travel in one direction.

Plans for the street show “sharrows,” or arrows indicating for motorists and cyclists to share the lane, on the north side.

“The challenge though is that cyclists tend to go both directions during the course of the day and more work is needed to provide an east-west westbound cycling route that isn’t simply sharrows painted on the road,” he said.

The construction work is part of a larger project to convert Main Street into a “complete street.”

The major reconstruction of Main Street will begin in 2015. The plans approved by city council this summer call for a radical change that will reduce vehicle lanes from four to two to make way for dedicated cycling tracks, wider sidewalks and dedicated on-street parking on Main Street.

Province gives solar power a boost Nepean company gets funding for powerchip production News - A local energy startup received a boost from the province’s Innovation Demonstration Fund on Dec. 18.

Solantro Semiconductor Corporation, based in Nepean, received $4 million for the production of chipset that will make solar panels and other small power generators more efficient, thereby adding more power to the grid.

Unlike chips that process information, the chips process power and turn electrical grids into smart networks.

Bob Chiarelli, the provincial energy minister and the MPP for Ottawa West-Nepean, said the renewable energy sector has improved the economy and created job growth in the province over the last six years.

“Ontario’s green energy strategy has attracted private sector investment and has helped to create over 31,000 jobs in the province,” he said, adding Solantro’s flagship

product will make big changes in the industry.

Chiarelli said the province has more than 3,500 megawatts of renewable energy in the grid and over the course of the next 10 or 11 months there will be 3,700 more megawatts connected.

“Ontario is a Canadian leader when it comes to solar energy. There are 900 megawatts of solar capacity online, which is enough electricity 100,000 homes annually,” he said.

CEO and founder Antoine Paquin said the chipsets wring more power out of solar energy.

“We are in pretty good shape with the grid in Ontario,” he said. “But it could revolutionize things for the 400 million living without electricity in India.”

Chiarelli announced the funding. He said the province hopes to draw half its energy from renewable sources by 2025.

“Solantro is an excellent candidate for this funding

because they are making advancements all across the spectrum in the energy sector, whether it’s in storage, smart grid or solar panels,” he said.

The Innovation Demonstration Fund is administered by the Ministry of Economic Development and Innovation. The fund is designed to help Ontario companies with emerging technology – preferably in green energy – to compete in the commercial market.

The funding to Solantro will allow for large scale production of the chipsets and will create 20 new jobs in Ottawa.

Antoine Paquin, founder of Solantro Semiconductor Corporation, shows solar panels to Energy Minister Bob Chiarelli during an announcement of provincial funding to the Nepeanbased energy company.

One Christmas concert memorable for many reasons

T

he Christmas concerts at Northcote School usually went off without a hitch – Miss Crosby saw to that.

For the entire month of December, we had rehearsals every day after school. Never could we miss even a minute of our studies. Oh no, not with Miss Crosby. That meant it was getting dark by the time we walked the five-and-a-half kilometre trek back home.

Every last pupil had to take part. It didn’t matter if you had a voice like a crow, you sang in the choir. If you were so shy you couldn’t say your name out loud, you had a part in the Nativity scene anyway. The program for the concert rarely varied.

The parents who crowded into the Northcote School to see their children perform could count on a repeat performance of the year before. That is, all except that one year when everything that could go wrong, went wrong.

We had rehearsed until we knew our lines backwards and forwards.

The tree was up in the corner, and the school room had been scrubbed from top to bottom. Christmas messages were written on the blackboards, the desks had been piled in the cloak room, and chairs had been moved in from the United Church.

We pupils were to be at the school early, with our parents arriving in

MARY COOK Memories time for the concert. Well, as soon as we got to school, there was trouble brewing. First of all, the mice had eaten all the popcorn balls off the Christmas tree on Friday night, so all that was left for decoration was the wisps of silver tinsel Miss Crosby brought from home each year, and the coloured paper stars each pupil made.

Of course, there was no piano in the school, so that year Miss Crosby had Three-Mile Herman’s parents bring in their crank-up Victrola, (I think it was the only Victrola in the Northcote area) and from someone else she scrounged a record of Silent Night. The record was as big as a meat platter, and since Three-Mile Herman knew how to get the music out of the Victrola, he was to make it work at the appropriate time in the concert.

The appropriate time was when the Nativity scene was coming to a close, and just before Santa was to burst through the back door.

Marguirite, as usual, was an angel. After she had complained

loud and long that she was tired of being a sheep, Miss Crosby had let her wear a handmade silver halo like Velma and me in order to keep the peace among the students. My sister Audrey was again the Virgin Mary, which didn’t please Cora one bit.

Three-Mile Herman never missed a beat, and kept turning the handle on the side of the Victrola and we continued on with the Nativity scene as if that was the music we had rehearsed with all along.

Finally, the parents were crammed into the school, the old stove was belting out the heat, you couldn’t see out the windows for the steam off bodies, and the bad smell of overshoes and gum rubbers hung in the room like a cloud.

The first thing that happened to put a damper on the concert was when big Emma grabbed a hold of the make-shift curtain (just a group of flour bag sheets hung on chicken wire to separate the performers from the audience) to stop herself from falling, and the entire stage-curtain came down like a cloud wafting from the sky. Someone got a ladder from the cloak room, and it was hammered back up and the concert was ready to begin.

Miss Crosby got us through the

singing numbers, and what passed for a pantomime, and the Nativity scene was about to begin. Someone turned down the oil lamps on cue, and Three-Mile Herman got the nod from Miss Crosby to start cranking the Victrola. Somehow, someone

R0012477047-1226

brought the wrong record, and we were listening to a high screechy voice belting out a song from the First World War. Three-Mile Herman never missed a beat, and kept turning the handle on the side of the Victrola and we continued on with the Nativity scene as if that was the music we had rehearsed with all along, even though none of us, except ThreeMile Herman had ever heard the record before.

The concert finally came to a close, and after thunderous applause from the parents, the entire school room of 18 pupils, sat on the floor at the front to await Santa Claus, who was supposedly standing out in the cold waiting to be let in. Uncle Alec Thom got up and went to the door, and Santa in all his glory flew

in, ringing a set of bells on a piece of rein, exactly like our horse King wore, and just about knocked Uncle Alec for a loop.

He careened into the classroom, and immediately sat right on the knee of the first woman in the back row. She let out a war-whoop and with a mighty shove, pushed him to the floor, where it took three strapping men to right him.

It was obvious to everyone that Santa had been into something stronger than green tea. Uncle Alec, my father and a couple other men got Santa into a chair at the back of the room, and within minutes he was sound asleep and snoring loud enough to wake the dead. Miss Crosby ended up handing out the Christmas presents herself, a few of the mothers passed around cookies, and the Christmas concert came to a close for another year.

Someone drove Santa home in his own cutter, and the talk around Northcote for weeks on end was about all the excitement at the school that cold winter’s night. My brother Emerson and Cecil said it was the best Christmas concert ever held at the Northcote school.

The story of how Yo Vikings! was brought to stage Susan Monaghan Kanata Theatre

Arts - This hereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a true story.

Once upon a time, in far off Philadelphia, a young girl named Emma bought herself a Viking ship because she loved Vikings, and kept it in her backyard and all the neighborhood kids used it as a play structure.

When Emma was in Grade 5 she became obsessed with all things Viking, as only a 10-year-old could be. In true Viking-lore fashion, it was the fates that intervened, and Emma was made aware of a newspaper ad for a 29-foot Viking ship.

Apparently the â&#x20AC;&#x153;Ericson Societyâ&#x20AC;? needed cash for a new ship when their old one â&#x20AC;&#x153;the Ravnenâ&#x20AC;? suffered a close

encounter with a Buick. The asking price was $7,000, but Emma and her sister Sarah began negotiations with an offer of $128, two baseball cards and a fox, and the ship, dragon head, and all was brought to her back yard by modern Vikings and a local news crew.

Emmaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s mom, Judith Byron Schachner, was really taken aback.

Fortunately she is really the author of many popular childrenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s books, so she knew a real live story when she saw one, and â&#x20AC;&#x153;Yo, Vikings!â&#x20AC;? was written.

Then one day, along came Marcus Stevens who wrote the musical with Sam Wilmott composing.

Now when Andrew Williams got wind of this he just knew it would be perfect for Kanata Theatreâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s seasonal

family show, and Andrew knows plenty about stuff like that.

He had already directed awesome musicals such as â&#x20AC;&#x153;The Little Mermaid,â&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x153;Beauty and the Beastâ&#x20AC;? and â&#x20AC;&#x153;Seussical the Musical.â&#x20AC;? Even now a wonderful cast is working hard, singing and dancing their hearts out to bring you plenty of family fun.

You can see them on stage at the Ron Maslin Playhouse from Dec. 27-30, so check outkanatatheatre.com/index.html for more information and tickets.

Instruments for Africa celebrates initial success Led by Ottawa teacher preparing for future donation projects Michelle Nash

michelle.nash@metroland.com

News - It’s a musical end to the year for Zambain students as an Ottawa music teacher announced the successful delivery of hundreds of musical instruments to a school in the African nation.

The initiative began a year ago, when Old Ottawa East resident Todd Snelgrove decided to launch Instruments for Africa. The goal was simple: collect and deliver instruments to the more than 300 students at the Linda Secondary School in Livingston, Zambia.

After receiving strong support from people in Ottawa, Snelgrove prepared and shipped more than 200 instruments in three large wooden shipping crates, which set sail on July 8.

Scheduled to arrive in Zambia early September, Snelgrove, his fiancee Heather Forbes and fellow Ottawa music teacher Susan Carlton travelled to receive the instruments, hand out and teach both the music teachers and

students at Linda and other area schools.

According to Snelgrove, things didn’t go exactly as planned, with the shipment turning up to be more than five weeks late.

Due to prior obligations, both Carlton and Forbes made plans to head home, with the shipment arriving on the day Forbes’s flight left.

Snelgrove made the best of the one week he had remaining.

Though rushed, the work did get done as each school met him and expressed a great deal of appreciation, Snelgrove said.

“Some even organized welcoming ceremonies featuring students singing and dancing in traditional dress,” he said.

The schools received a number of instruments, including guitars, ukuleles, keyboards, violins and accordions.

“The kids couldn’t wait to get started,” Snelgrove said.

“Hundreds of students that were enrolled in music classes now had actual instruments to play in school, many of them

seeing saxophones and clarinets for the first time, despite studying music theory and singing for years.”

The initiative, Snelgrove said, does not stop at this one shipment.

“Being in Africa for nearly two months (has) led to many important contacts that will help Instruments For Africa go forward with even more success,” he said.

Snelgrove added he has also met with the dean of the teachers college that trains each of Zambia’s music educators, who described the project as “miraculous.”

Instrument and financial donations are still welcomed online at instrumentsforafrica. com to help with future shipments as arrangements are being made.

As well, the Arts and Culture Council of Zambia announced it will put together a board to help select future instrument recipients.

Snelgrove added his organization will begin to shift its focus to neighboring countries.

He said he plans on returning to Zambia in the spring as a follow up with each of the recipient schools and ensure that the donated instruments are being used to their fullest potential.

Ottawa women start ‘Mom’s night off’ food service Tyler Hooper

Kanata Kourier-Standard

News - Two Ottawa women have started a new food delivery business with the help of a government initiative that supports those with entrepreneurial ambitions.

Jen Dery and Sue Hayes founded Mom’s Night Off Delivery through the Ontario self-employment benefit program which provides unemployed people who have or are eligible for employment insurance support to develop their entrepreneurial ideas.

In essence, the program teaches people how to create a solid plan for starting a business. The primary goal stated on the government website is to help provide the tools for participants to successfully launch their own business and “create their own employment.”

The program lasts for 42 weeks.

This first month is classroom time, followed by seminars and the eventual launch of a start-up business.

The only monetary support given through the program is a benefit similar to employment insurance, which is given out every two weeks

to help participants with personal payments.

“Amazing, it was really overwhelming to take everything in, but they take everything you thought you knew and teach you everything you don’t know,” Dery said about the program and their experience.

Both women lost their jobs earlier in the year, this, along with other personal issues, motivated Dery and Hayes to take charge of their lives and apply to the program.

“Let’s change our lives, let’s make sure this doesn’t happen again,” Hayes said.

Getting into the program was an ordeal in itself. Those that apply have to attend a seminar, fill-out an application and wait to see if they are granted an interview.

“It was almost like going in front of the Dragon’s Den,” Dery said of the interview process.

After the interview, Dery and Hayes found out a week before the program started that they had been accepted.

“We both cried,” Hayes said.

Dery and Hayes started the program in September.

Jen Dery (in car) and Sue Hayes launched Mom’s Night Off Delivery in early November. completed their classroom and seminar time and launched their business on Nov. 4. The business launched in the east-end, based from Sue’s home, and covers roughly the area between Sandy Hill, Beacon Hill and Walkley Road.

Most recently, the duo have started serving areas of Rockcliffe.

Dery and Hayes already have plans to expand into Orléans by January.

“This is a huge opportunity for us for sure,” Dery and Hayes said.

Dery grew up in the Rockcliffe area while Hayes is native to Overbrook.

Mom’s delivery provides a food delivery service for restaurants that don’t have their own in-house delivery.

Customers can order an array of food, including fast-food, oriental and vegetarian. Mom’s delivery charges the customer for its services, not the restaurant.

Both women are in their forties, and are excited to be taking charge of their lives.

“Here’s to taking control of our lives and supporting our families,” Dery said.

“With hard work, people can do it,” Dery added, “Dream big and work hard; (if) you work hard you can do anything.”

Dery and Hayes added that starting their business has been a little overwhelming but said “We’ve got incredible support.”

In a large wide saucepan, heat the oil over medium-high heat. Season the chicken with salt and pepper and cook until it’s golden all over -- about five minutes. Remove and set aside.

Add the onion, garlic and more oil to pan if necessary and

cook, stirring frequently, until it’s slightly softened, about three minutes. Add the curry paste and stir until the mixture is fragrant -- about 30 seconds.

Lincoln’s MKC Moves

from Concept to Production

by Brian Turner

Lincoln marked another milestone recently in its journey to compete decisively in the prestige and luxury market with the all-new 2015 MKC SPV (Small Premium Utility Vehicle). The Lincoln design team faced the dual challenge of meeting the ever-changing demands of younger luxury vehicle consumers while further defining the Lincoln design DNA. The MKC Concept, which was revealed to the public at the 2013 North American International Auto Show in Detroit in January, introduced a uniquely crafted wraparound lift-gate, a design feature that carried over to the production model. Its side-cut design gives MKC an uninterrupted rear-view to epitomize elegance, while its hands-free feature is another example of Lincoln’s commitment to build customer-friendly vehicles.

Those aspirations also carry through to the interior, where the merging of craftsmanship and technology combine to offer a warm, luxurious environment.

Featuring an architecturally unique instrument panel that showcases Lincoln’s signature push-button gear shifter, MKC creates an open, welcoming interior.

Inviting leathers and available Bridge of Weir leather and real-wood trim accentuate

MKC’s elegance and grace. “We gave attention to every detail to convey a stylish, luxurious vehicle,” said Soo Kang, Lincoln interior design chief. “The structure of the interior allows for openness, and that space contributes to the overall ambience. We want this vehicle to not only meet but often exceed the expectations of the new Lincoln customer.”

“We’re confident we’ve created an allnew vehicle that will attract new customers to the brand while meeting the expectations of long-time Lincoln drivers,” said Max Wolff, director, Lincoln Design. “The execution of the new liftgate is a prime example of how a signature premium design element can create a better customer experience.”

In the 2015 MKC, Lincoln will introduce a series of customer-focused comfort features they call ‘Lincoln Experiences’.

Systems such as ‘Approach Detection’ will allow the MKC to respond to an approaching owner (identified by the key in his or her possession) and illuminate the ground near the doors and in the outer door handle pockets for easier and safer entry. A communication system will allow drivers to interact with the vehicle remotely using the

smart phone-enabled MyLincoln Mobile app. An embedded modem on each vehicle communicates with the app which allows owners to start, lock, unlock and locate the vehicle. Drivers also can use the app to perform a variety of other functions such as place a call for roadside assistance; monitor the vehicle’s fuel level; check the tire pressure and battery status; and program engine start times. .“Lincoln Experiences are about creating a warm, personal driving experience every time a Lincoln owner approaches their vehicle,” said Matt VanDyke, Director, Global Lincoln. “Today’s premium car buyer is more demanding than ever. Our goal is to create vehicles that not only meet those evolving demands, but exceed them and redefine what the luxury car-buying and driving experience should be.”

Production of the all-new 2015 Lincoln MKC is slated to begin in the second quarter of 2014 at the Louisville Assembly Plant in Louisville, Ky. Vehicles will begin arriving to Lincoln dealerships next summer. Canadian pricing has been announced, starting at $39,940.

carstar kanata: Welcoming Customers with Reliable Experts for All Types of Automotive Service

At CARSTAR Kanata (Allard’s)

We Offer:

Full Service Mechanical Wheel Alignments Tire Sales, Installation and Balancing

by Brian Turner

What few people outside of the auto repair business know is that in order to run a successful body-shop like CARSTAR Kanata, a complete and effective support system must be in place to deal with the mechanical, electrical, and electronics components of a modern vehicle in order to return it to like-new condition after a collision. To that end, Yvon Allard has recruited and trained an elite team of automotive specialists and has installed all the equipment needed to successfully deal with the technology-laden vehicles that roll down our roads today. This team continually receives training and updates to keep them on top of emerging vehicle design and manufacturing trends for all makes and models.

So it was a natural progression for CARSTAR Kanata to offer a full menu of maintenance and mechanical repair services for those car owners seeking an affordable and reliable service provider without having the need for a collision repair service. Now Yvon’s customers can get just about any required service from a quick and thorough oil change to a brake-system overhaul to an airconditioning recharge and so much more without having to deal multiple shops and long waits for appointments. The nation-wide resources of CARSTAR have made a lot of this possible and the end result is a growth in repeat business. “We are impressed

by CARSTAR’s extensive guidance and impeccable training programs,” says Yvon. “Our ultimate goal has always been to provide an unsurpassed customer service experience and we will continue to do that as part of the CARSTAR network. We want every one of our customers to remain a lifetime customer.”

Study could look at making a ‘friendlier’ Merivale But when the results of that study – no matter how minor – go to the planning committee and possibly the transportation committee, it will open an opportunity for councillors to use their clout to push for additional attention on Merivale Road, said College Coun. Rick Chiarelli.

Laura Mueller

News - A study of commercial building densities on Merivale Road could trigger its transformation into a main street, if city councillors get their way.

The city is already undertaking a housekeeping study to look at the proper amount of homes and jobs that Merivale Road should accommodate.

In addition to that, Knoxdale-Merivale Coun. Keith Egli was successful in getting his fellow city councillors’ support on a motion to include input about street-renewal opportunities as part of that density study on Nov. 26.

Egli said nearby residents are getting antsy about what might crop up on the only remaining vacant portion of Merivale, referred to as the “triangle.” The plot at the corner of Clyde Avenue sits empty after a 2010 fire forced the demolition of the old CJOH TV station building.

“That’s how it started – basically the community saying ‘We have concerns about Merivale, we have concerns about the triangle and what might happen there.’”

Discussing what could move onto the property led to residents talking about what they’d like Merivale Road to look like in the future, Egli said. That led to discussions about the kind of street the road could become.

The city considering a five-

LAURA MUELLER/METROLAND

A study of commercial and residential density in the Merivale Road area could lead to a broader discussion about making the street a friendlier environment for pedestrians and cyclists, says Knoxdale-Merivale Coun. Keith Egli. year update of its transportation blueprint was also timely, because it got residents to think about how the design of the street affects what it’s like to live, travel or operate a business there.

“More feedback came in through this process saying ‘We want to talk more about cycling, we want to talk more about more of a main street kind of approach to it,’” Egli said.

All those concerns came together at the right time to push the city to look at zoning for Merivale Road in a more com-

erties along Merivale Road, Ruddy said. Similar studies will be undertaken for many of the city’s commercial main streets in 2014, she added.

“I’m anticipating tweaks,” to the zoning, Ruddy said – not big changes.

prehensive way, the councillor said.

Ostensibly, the study is simply a housekeeping matter to ensure the zoning along Merivale actually allows development to accommodate the density target for the street – 120 residents and jobs per hectare, said Carol Ruddy, the city planner in charge of the study. “(We want to) ensure that you’ve got the floor space needed to reach those targets,” she said.

If the zoning wouldn’t allow for enough density, the study might lead to rezoning prop-

Merivale is “not a friendly environment,” Ruddy said. Although it’s a simple technical study, some interesting things could end up coming out of it, she added.

Although it’s maligned as a congested, esthetically unappealing car-oriented retail strip, Egli said Merivale serves an important function as a centre for commerce.

Chiarelli likened the issue to a Yogi Berra quote: “Nobody goes there anymore – it’s too crowded.”

“Over and above that, there are communities along Merivale,” said Egli. “For them, in a lot of ways, that is their main street. That is where they do their shopping and that is where they go out to a restaurant. It’s well used.”

Adding more residents along Merivale will boost the customer base for area businesses without adding to traffic congestion, Chiarelli said.

But residents say it could stand to be a more comfortable and welcoming area to walk in, Egli said.

“Merivale is a challenge,” he said.

When rare commercial redevelopment projects come up, like the Claridge condos on Merivale at Basil Macdonald Way, the city works with the developer to find ways to make the building enhance the streetscape.

“Animating the street” but requiring businesses on the first floor of the tower helps create energy and activity along the street’s edge, Egli said.

“Something so that when you’re walking by, your eye is attracted and it draws you in,” he said. “We’re working on those things.”

The density study will take three to six months to complete, Ruddy said. Any proposed zoning changes would need the approval of the planning committee and city council.

Thanks to the chilly weather, a beach vacation beckons you, Aries.

Start planning an excursion to a warm locale that allows you to escape the daily grind.

A sporting event or something that draws a large crowd is just where you need to be this week, Taurus. Surround yourself with people who share your interests.

You may have been bouncing around aimlessly for some time, Libra. But now is the week to get all of your affairs together and put your plan for the future in motion.

Restlessness can sometimes be a dangerous thing for you, Scorpio.

Channel any restlessness into a worthy project that makes good use of your boundless energy.

Give an issue in your relationship the consideration it merits, Gemini. Though it might not seem like it now, taking time to work this out will ultimately strengthen your relationship.

Cancer, the final stages of a project you have been working on are ready begin. Don’t be afraid to take credit when all of your hard work pays off in a big way.

Obligations to work and family leave you short on personal time, Leo. Though your schedule is hectic, make time to unwind and you will be glad for having done so.

It may take a while to convince someone to go along with your idea, Virgo. Yet once you have this person’s support, they will be fully on board.

Sagittarius, make the best of a situation that needs changing. You might not be able to affect change, but that does not mean you can’t improve the situation with a positive attitude.

Perceptions vary, Capricorn. Just because you feel strongly about something doesn’t mean another will view it the same way. Accept that your passion will not always be reciprocated.

Aquarius, even though it will be a busy week, you aren’t likely to feel wiped out. There will still be time for fun. Figure out a day to do something enjoyable.

Pisces, you are torn between being creative and following convention at work. Ask a colleague for some input.

This weeks puzzle answers in next weeks issue

Here’s How It Works: Sudoku puzzles are formatted as a 9x9 grid, broken down into nine 3x3 boxes.

To solve a sudoku, the numbers 1 through 9 must fill each row, column and box. Each number can appear only once in each row, column and box. You can figure out the order in which the numbers will appear by using the numeric clues already provided in the boxes. The more numbers you name, the easier it gets to solve the puzzle!

Finding your next used car is as easy as pie.
