Kanata councillors disagree over need for more consultation Adam Kveton adam.kveton@metroland.com

News - Canada Post is going door-to-door for one of the last times in Kanata, but they won’t be delivering mail. Starting May 20, Canada Post has been knocking on the doors of Kanata residents who will have a community mailbox placed either abutting, adjacent to, or opposite their property, says Canada Post correspondence forwarded by the city.

“We will explain why the location was chosen,” reads an email from Canada Post. “We will also explain when the boxes will be installed and when delivery will commence.” Though Canada Post said the door-to-door consultation has started because the site plans for community mailboxes are now final, it goes on, saying, “Canada Post will be taking customer concerns and input regarding the location at this time.” Kanata South Coun. Allan Hubley said this is more public consultation on the part of Canada Post which promises to take into consideration legitimate safety concerns with regards to community mailbox placement. Kanata North Coun. Marianne Wilkinson said going door-to-door is a good idea, but that it is not the in-depth community engagement she had envisioned. Hubley suggests consulting with communities on individual community mailbox placement would not have made things any better. “This point … may be relevant,” said Wilkinson. “Because I don’t think they listen.”

If you look good, you do good, says All Saints class Participation can be as easy as throwing on a dress shirt, a tie and some dark jeans, but students hope these fashion efforts have a much larger effect. Essentially, it’s about looking good so that you feel confident enough to do good in your community. The idea started with a discussion in one of Vanneste’s civics classes, said Vanneste. “One of the kids was saying, ‘Well miss, I know that you are expecting us to be great citizens and do great things, but the reality is that a lot of kids don’t feel the greatest about themselves, and that’s where it’s got to really start,’” said Vanneste. The class discussion soon turned to student fashion. “It’s almost like the worse you look, the better it is,” said Vanneste. Her class agreed. “So they came up with this whole concept of Werk It Wednesday,” she said. The class resolved to wear whatever they considered to be their best clothes, whether that meant a dress, a suit and tie, a golf shirt or even their favourite jean jacket, and “Werk It” at a class photo shoot. The event meant breaking away from the typical fashion choices of skater shoes, ratty jeans or leggings and a

T-shirt, and instead putting some thought into what students want to look like. “I think it’s working,” said Paige. “I feel better when we have our Werk It Wednesdays. It’s fun and I look forward to it, and I think other people do too.”

Good citizenship starts with your own self-confidence, so if you dress nice and you think that you look good, it usually makes you feel good about yourself. ALYSSA LIU, STUDENT

Fellow student Kaitlyn North agreed, adding that her confidence in herself is going beyond the event. “I was never really comfortable wearing dresses to school before, but yesterday it wasn’t a ‘Werk It Wednesday’ and I wore a dress because I feel more comfortable now,” she said. Creating a day where it’s safe to dress your best has actually allowed for greater self-expression, the students said. “A lot of girls just wear hoodies and leggings, so

(Werk It Wednesdays) gets people to expand their wardrobe and express themselves in a different way,” said Paige. “It used to be just everyone trying to fit in and be one, but now you see people’s personalities through how they dress,” she said. The third “Werk It Wednesday” was May 28, but the event has already outgrown the school, said the students. “I think it’s cool that parents and siblings are doing it too,” said student Alyssa Liu. “It’s not only people from our school, but people that we are related to, or people that we can help influence to make themselves confident.” Though some may question how much a change of clothes can do for people, these students believe looking good is a good start towards improving their community. “Good citizenship starts with your own self-confidence, so if you dress nice and you think that you look good, it usually makes you feel good about yourself,” she said. Vanneste, who has been witnessing the results of “Werk It” days on her students, agreed. “When you throw on that outfit that makes you feel like $1 million bucks, I mean, there is something to be said about what it’s doing for kids.”

No further community mailbox consultation needed: Kanata South councillor Continued from page 1

Canada Post announced in February that it would be moving to community mailbox delivery from door-to-door delivery starting with a few communities across Canada, including Kanata. Since then, Canada Post has rolled out a limited, but adequate community consultation plan, said Hubley. That included a survey mailed to Kanata residents that asked whether they wanted their community mailboxes in a central location, or closer to their homes. Closer to their homes was the overwhelming answer, said Hubley. Canada Post also met with community association presidents in both Kanata North and South to explain a bit about how the changes will be made. But the Kanata North meeting did not include the proposed locations for the mailboxes, said Wilkinson. Still, community presidents were given contact information to provide comments. Though Wilkinson and Beaverbrook community members have decried what they call Canada Post’s lack of an open process, Hubley said adequate community consultation has occurred, and he sees no reason for any more. Wilkinson’s main charge has been that Canada Post refuses to hold a public meeting on mailbox locations. “I’m not getting this feedback that there is a huge demand for a public meeting on this,” said Hubley. “People are saying what

Canada Post is knocking on doors to speak with residents living near locations where community mailboxes will be installed, like this one in Kanata Lakes where community mailboxes have long been in use. they want to say through either the website or their survey.” That includes safety concerns, like whether or not there is adequate street lighting for a particular community mailbox, if

there is a place for people to park and whether there is a nearby sidewalk. Those sorts of comments will be taken into account, said Hubley, whereas con-

cerns over having the mailbox in front of your home because a resident doesn’t like the way it looks will not. For her part, Wilkinson said she remains skeptical over whether any action will be taken on any residents’ safety concerns. This is particularly worrisome when it comes to the Beaverbrook community, she said. “Beaverbrook was built with pathways through parks rather than sidewalks, and with lowlevel lighting rather than street lights, and so to find the place (in Beaverbrook) that is safe on a road and is lit is almost impossible,” said Wilkinson. Wilkinson said safety is her ultimate priority. “If (community mailboxes) are going to come, I want them to be in as safe a location as possible,” she said. With that in mind, Wilkinson said she is making a last ditch effort to have a meeting with a select group of Kanata North residents and Canada Post to discuss individual community mailbox locations. Hubley said, “I believe with the survey and with the meeting with the associations, (Canada Post) has done all we need them to do on public consultation.”

Glen Cairn needs off-leash dog park To the editor,

Let’s look at the issue regarding an off-leash safe area for dogs in Glen Cairn as petitioned for by more than 50 households in Glen Cairn. Kanata South Coun. Allan Hubley recently called me on the telephone to say the plan was to make the current baseball diamond at Clarence Maheral Park (Pumphouse) smaller and build a fence around it so the dogs would have a run around the area. He proposed a locked gate, a fee to join a dog club to cover the cost of having a company clean it regularly (remove dog poop), and

I agree with the ongoing need to stress importance of supporting/funding educational requirements. However with the state of Ontario’s present deficit/debt situation, I feel that the economy needs to be the most important issue in the upcoming election. If our financial status does not improve significantly (and soon) we will need to continue borrowing money to be paid back not only by present taxpayers but also by future generations. Ontario has a history of being the engine running the country, now we are a havenot province requiring other provincial governments to support us through annual transfer payments. Our overall debt has doubled since the Liberals took over and their most recent budget only increases that. Ontario PC leader Tim Hudak is not perfect, however. I feel he is the only provincial leader telling the hard truth in what has to take place to get our provincial economy back in place. The Liberals billion dollar scandals (e-health, orange,

To the editor,

only residents “around here” would be allowed/expected to use it. He also said the Rotary Club was willing to donate some money to the project but he did not know how much. There is no money in the city’s budget this year to pay for a fence -- perhaps in the next budget. Local businesses are available to donate to community projects. I assumed he meant I was to request these funds. He expected the fence would cost $20,0000 to $30,000. Mr. Hubley also wanted me to start a dog club and charge money to clean the area. Everyone who was a member would receive a key to enter the dog run. My response was that this had become a bureaucratic nightmare, rooted in a simple request for an off-leash safe dog area within one of the parks near us. He told me he would look into it further. This week, I found out that the Rotary money has gone to Stittsville to create a dog park. There is no one working on an area for dogs in Glen Cairn, and it is because I said ‘No’. I would like to hear from the people who signed the petition. I would like your opinions and suggestions on what we can do next.

Explore Ottawa’s cultural diversity

T

he city is offering a wonderful opportunity for residents to explore Ottawa’s cultural diversity and rich heritage this weekend. Since 2002, more than 700,000 visitors have taken advantage of Doors Open Ottawa, a free annual event that provides insider access to buildings such the Embassy of the Republic of Armenia, the Royal Canadian Mint and the Ottawa Police Service building. The event will unlock the doors of normally offlimit buildings such as ambassador’s homes and the Britannia Water Purification Plant. This year’s tour, on June 7 and 8, will feature more than 120 buildings. The Children’s Hospital of Eastern Ontario will participate in the event as part of its 40th birthday celebration. Residents are invited to take a behindthe-scenes look at the hospital’s “cutting-edge� research and visit labs, surgical suites, a butterfly garden as well as a chance to check out its famous Karsh portraits. Visitors can select from a variety of modes of transportation: walking, driving, cycling – Doors Open Ottawa will provide a free shuttle bus, which will offer stops within walking distance of 50

buildings on the tour. For some residents, the day will present an opportunity to learn about other cultures or religions by visiting buildings such as Blessed Sacrament Church, located on 194 Fourth Ave., the Greek Orthodox Church,1315 Prince of Wales Dr., the Hindu Temple of Ottawa-Carleton Inc., 4835 Bank St. The Ottawa Main Mosque, 251 Northwestern Ave., or the Protection of the Holy Virgin Russian Orthodox Church, 99 Stonehurst Ave. Mayor Jim Watson hit the nail on the head when he referred to the tour as an opportunity to experience first-hand some of Ottawa’s architectural treasures. Organizers say this year’s buildings are an “eclectic mix of modern and heritage architecture,� including churches, mosques, government buildings together with artist studios and private businesses. Some examples include the Arts Court, 2 Daly Ave., the Mercury Court Building, 377 Dalhousie St., the C.D. Howe Building , 235 Queen St., the Carleton Masonic Lodge, 3704 Carp Rd., or the First Baptist Church, 140 Laurier Ave. West. We should never take our history and culture for granted.

Life turning into a series of beeps

M

y friend and I bumped into each other at the gym and were discussing what it needed. There was the usual list of complaints, despite the fact that it is a very nice gym. Then he said something that struck me. “We need to get rid of the beeps,� he said. From that moment, I began hearing beeps that I’d never heard before. This gym, like other gyms has machines that beep. They beep when you change settings. Because they are spiffy new machines — treadmills, bicycles, ellipticals and the like — there are lots of settings to change. You can change the speed, the incline, the degree of difficulty, the type of readout. You can turn the TV on and off and change the channels. If you increase to six miles per hour from one mile per hour, the machine will beep for every 10th of a mile. They aren’t that loud. If you never think about beeps, they probably don’t annoy you. Once you start thinking about them, they do. Sorry to make you think about them. We are so used to beeps in our lives that we may have forgotten to ask why they are there. What favour is the machine doing for us when it beeps?

CHARLES GORDON Funny Town Well, it’s telling us that we pushed a button. The bank machine tells us we pushed a button. Some car keys beep when we push a button. (Others honk – even worse.) Gas pumps beep when we select a grade of gasoline. Phones beep when we press a number. Maybe we need to be informed that we pushed a button. That’s because, in another triumph of modern design, buttons have been made so that they don’t click down when we push them. But we shouldn’t need that favour, should we, because machines have a visual display that tells us we pushed a button. In the gym, you know without a beep that you just increased your speed.

We seem to want a noise that tells us when there’s email, even though we can see the icon on the screen. It’s easy to stop your car from honking when you lock it, but most people don’t bother, which is yet another reason why shopping centre parking lots are among the least pleasant places on the planet. The sad fact, really sad to my friend, is that we have become a beep-addicted society. The number of devices that beep grows every day and our efforts to control them are laughably ineffective. There is no will to do it. It’s no surprise, is it, that the federal government is giving in to those who demand that their electronic devices be available to them at every possible second on airplanes. Transport Minister Lisa Raitt announced last week that passengers will be able to use their portable electronic devices during takeoff, ascent, descent and landing flights, as long as the devices are in non-transmitting, or flight, mode. “If you think about it,� she said, “here

Now nobody has to go without their beeps for even a second. It could be a good campaign issue for the government next year. Unless people suddenly start noticing beeps.

United Way Ottawa changes people’s lives To the editor,

Re: “Charity’s failure to meet campaign goal not surprising,” letters, KKS, May 29. Please allow me to share a response to the letter published in the Kourier-Standard on May 29 regarding United Way Ottawa. In this letter, a question was posed, “How does it [United Way Ottawa] change lives?” As the executive director of Youville Centre, a nonprofit, registered charity in Ottawa, I have experienced first-hand how United Way changes lives. They are currently changing the lives of 48 young mothers and 55 babies in our centre. United Way Ottawa has helped us immeasurably through their multi-year sup-

port of our Me, My Baby, Our World attachment-based parenting program. This program supports positive infant mental health, and helps to decrease young mothers’ levels of depression and parenting stress. Last year, through a United Way-led initiative called project step, 150 youth-aged clients served by Youville Centre and three other community agencies received support through counseling and intervention for their struggles with addiction and substance abuse. Also in 2013, thanks to a targeted investment from United Way Ottawa, Youville Centre received $20,000 to launch our toy and book lending library that enables our moms to access educational toys and books selected to support their child’s development. The letter also stated that, “Far too many of us do not know what it (United Way Ottawa) does or what it stands for.” For the staff and young mothers of Youville Centre, United Way Ottawa stands as a beacon of hope for the most vulnerable in our com-

munity. They mobilize the Ottawa community to share their resources with those in the greatest need, and they connect people to these resources. United Way Ottawa is one of Youville Centre’s most valued partners. They have shared with us their public platform, so that we could communicate our clients’ success stories to a wider audience. If the United Way “disappeared”, as was mentioned in the letter, I believe that it would be a significant loss to the Ottawa community, including the myriad of agencies like ours, who partner with United Way Ottawa to provide essential social services. I personally know many young moms and Youville Centre alumnae who would agree that United Way Ottawa is truly “making change happen” in their lives, and allowing them to feel more united with others in their community.

Protect Yourself and Prevent the Bite! Warm weather has arrived and outdoor adventure has begun. Ottawa Public Health (OPH) is reminding residents and visitors to be cautious of unwanted company who may latch on for a free ride – ticks. Ticks vary in size and colour depending on their age and feeding status. While Ontario is home to a numb e r of different species of ticks, it’s the black-legged tick (Ixodes scapularis; also called the deer tick) that we have to worry about as it can carry or spread the bacteria Borrelia burgdorferi that causes Lyme Disease (LD). Though not all black-legged ticks are infected with Borrelia burgdorferi, those that are infected must be attached to their human host for a minimum of 24 hours for the bacteria to be transferred into the human blood stream hence the importance of catching it early. Symptoms of LD usually begin three days to one month after being bitten by an infected tick. Individuals that acquire LD often develop a round, red rash that slowly expands away from the tick bite resembling a “bull’s eye” pattern. Other flu-like symptoms include – fever, chills, fatigue, headache, muscle and joint pain. If left untreated, LD can cause neurological symptoms, rheumatologic symptoms or cardiac abnormalities weeks to years after onset. As a result, residents are encouraged to see their doctor if they think they might have contracted LD. Ticks hide in tall grasses or shrubs and crawl onto human or animal hosts when given the opportunity. Humans, dogs, birds and deer populations are all ideal hosts for ticks.

As well, help make your environment less favourable to ticks: • Keep the grass in your yard mowed; • Remove brush and fallen leaves from the edges of property, especially if your yard borders a wooded area or fields of tall grass; • Reduce the attraction of small critters such as mice and voles by cleaning up areas under and around bird feeders; • Discourage deer from entering your yard, as ticks also feed on these animals; • Place children’s play structures away from wooded areas. By following these simple tips, you can better enjoy outdoor adventures with your family and friends. In the event a tick bites you, follow these steps to effectively remove it: 1. Using tweezers, grasp the ticks head as close to the skin as possible and pull slowly until the tick is removed. Do not twist, squeeze or rotate the tick. Do not use a match, lotion or anything else on the tick. 2. Place the tick in an empty pill vial or zip-lock bag with a moistened paper towel. 3. Wash your bite site with soap and water.

To avoid tick bites, take these easy steps to protect yourself and your family:

If you have a “tick key”, you can:

• Apply an approved insect repellent containing DEET to exposed skin and clothing;

2. Slide the tick into the specially tapered slot.

• Wear long pants, a long sleeved shirt, shoes and socks to avoid exposed skin; • Tuck pants into socks; • Wear light coloured clothing; • Stay to trails and avoid walking in the long grass; • Check yourself, children and pets for ticks, pay special attention to the scalp, groin, armpits, and behind the knees.

1. Place the key over the tick in the tear-drop hole.

3. Pull the key away from the skin. The tick should come out easily. Disinfect your tick key after each use. Ticks that have bitten humans may be submitted for testing to OPH, by appointment. As this is a surveillance and identification program only, results may not be available for a number of months. Your physician conducts all clinical case management relating to your tick exposure. For more information or questions regarding tick submissions and Lyme disease, please visit ottawa.ca/LymeDisease or contact Ottawa Public Health at 613-580-6744 (TTY: 613-580-9656).

tive thing. If I need to pick up and leave for any reason at all, there is no one who can just pick up the pieces of my work and take over. I have no team. I remember hearing a story several years ago about a freelance newspaper editor who put together a weekly in the late ’80s. She went into early labour with her first child. It was the evening before the paper was due to go into production. On her way to the hospital, she stopped by the office, copyedited every single item, laid out the copy and then called an ambulance. Some may see this as admirable. I see it as crazy. We live in a society where independence is celebrated and seemingly desired. Fewer people marry; more people live alone; in our hearts we fancy independent home

ownership over cooperatives and individual patents over team wins. But in so many ways, we need each other. And we need to offer ourselves to others whenever possible. I heard a great sermon a few weeks ago, which reminded me that we are all part of a carefully crafted mosaic. Often we never realize the impact our small or big actions will have on another person. Sometimes, it’s only many years later that we come to understand a simple phone call or a gift has changed another’s life profoundly. As I check and doublecheck my still half-empty suitcase for tomorrow’s journey – do I have shoes, shirts and jewellery that coordinate? – the more profound understanding is that, it’s at times like this I realize

the importance of having a network of friends and family: People who are willing to provide extra meals and ad hoc childcare while mom’s out of town; those who can take on an editing project for me at the last minute; the ones that offer to pick up groceries or take the kids to their soccer games. Nurturing these relationships and being available to others is a priority for me in my life. People need people and we all have something amazing to offer. (I tend to make soup). It’s through the depths of our generosity that we nurture deeper relationships. The deeper the relationships, the more likely we are to have someone to turn to in our own time of need. Not only that, but our simple actions may even alter the course of someone’s life forever – we just never know.

City to bury new Founders Ave. hydro wires laura.mueller@metroland.com

R0012536987

News - A technical issue means a new road in Stittsville will break city rules and get underground hydro wires. Despite a new policy passed in 2011 that says the city won’t bury hydro lines unless it’s fully paid for by the developer, businesses or residents that request it, the hydro lines along a new road being built in Stittsville will be underground. The two-lane road, Founders Avenue, will be constructed through undeveloped land between Fernbank Road to Halezdean Road in two phases. The problem is that the area already has two hydro-line corridors traversing the area, which

could create electrical interference if another set of hydro lines are added along the road. The only solution, said Stittsville Coun. Shad Qadri, is to use $1.46 million the city will collect in development charges for future construction in the area to pay for underground installation of the new wires. It will be the first set of hydro lines put underground in Ottawa since the city passed its new policy in 2011. “It’s because of a technical issue,� Qadri said. “There are a couple hydro corridors in close proximity and in order to put a third one in would be really, really impossible from a technical perspective.� The area already has a highvoltage Hydro One line running

through the area, as well as an Ottawa Hydro corridor. Other solutions investigated the possibility of excavating the roadway to lower the road by 2.7 metres, or raising the height of the Hydro One lines. According to a memo from city staff, both those options would have created “unacceptable conflicts� with development plans for the area and would have resulted in a “multitude of technical issues making it almost impossible to support development in an efficient and effective manner.� The underground option is also $366,125 cheaper than making the existing hydro towers taller, according to the memo. On May 27 the city’s planning committee approved the

exception to allow development charges to be used to pay for the work. The construction of the future Founders Avenue has already begun, so council had make an exception to pass the committee’s recommendation the next day in order to avoid construction delays and increased costs, Qadri said. Phase 1 of the road between Fernbank and Abbott is expected to be done late next year. Phase 2, from Abbottsford to Hazeldean, is expected to be built in the next two to three years. A third phase connecting Founders Avenue from Hazeldean Road to Palladium Drive would be completed later – likely before 2025, according to the city’s transportation master plan. The entire road will paid for using development charges, since it is a new road and the charges are used to pay for the costs associated with the city’s growth. The road will eventually be widened to four lanes for vehicle traffic and two transit lanes.

Tuesday, June 17, 2014 Holy Spirit Catholic School - 1383 Stittsville Main Street 6:30 to 9 p.m. Transit Access: Route #96 The City of Ottawa is undertaking the Carp Road Widening Environmental Assessment (EA) Study to determine the most appropriate means to accommodate increasing transportation infrastructure requirements in the northwest Stittsville area of the city. The City’s Transportation Master Plan (TMP 2013) identifies the need for the widening of Carp Road from two lanes to four lanes between Highway 417 and Hazeldean Road as a Phase 2 project to be completed between 2020 and 2025. Consultation At the second public open house held in February 2014, the Study Team presented a Preliminary Preferred Design for Carp Road that included roundabout intersections, a narrow raised median and, a multi-use pathway on both sides of the corridor. Having regard for public input, the Study Team has re-evaluated the alternatives, placing a greater emphasis on providing for adjacent site access and on minimizing property requirements. This third Open House will provide an overview of the study progress to-date, including a Recommended Plan for the corridor. This Recommended Plan now includes traffic signals at major intersections, two-way left-turn lane in some sectors, intermittent medians, and a multi-use pathway along both sides of the corridor. Your participation in Open House meetings is important where you can discuss the project with the study team and provide feedback. The EA Study is being undertaken in accordance with Ontario’s EA Act, fulfilling requirements as a Municipal Class EA process for a Schedule ‘C’ project. The EA process involves developing, assessing, and evaluating alternatives, which result in a Recommended Plan that will be presented to City Council for approval. Further information on the Carp Road Widening EA Study is available at ottawa.ca/carproad

Incumbent not taking voters for granted Derek Dunn

derek.dunn@metroland.com

News – Jack MacLaren won the last election by about 9,000 votes, but that hasn’t stopped him from knocking on as many doors in the CarletonMississippi Mills as possible. “There’s still more people out there to bother,” he said with a chuckle. “We’re not taking any of them for granted.” Currently the Progressive Conservative MPP in the riding, MacLaren hails from MacLaren’s Landing on the Ottawa River in West Carleton where his family has held deed since 1826. A gentleman farmer with one and a half employees, 550 acres of corn and soya along with beef cattle, he is also well educated. He has a degree in civil engineering from Queen’s University. MacLaren is has a strong interest in private property rights as past president of the Ontario Landowners Association. He won the PC nomination in a controversial race against the incumbent MPP and went on to win in the 2011 election with 50 per cent of the vote. He cites his experiences at Queen’s Park and as head of a provincial rural rights organization as reason for qualifying him to represent the riding. Having travelled around the province meeting with folks from all walks of life and business people at all levels, he feels confident in understanding the problems they face. A husband and father to three nurses, he is opposition critic holding three portfolios: democratic and senate reform,

t c e l E

John Hansen MPP Carleton—Mississippi Mills

“With John Hansen you have an MPP that will create jobs, stop waste and make life affordable.” Jack MacLaren: Progressive Conservative candidate infrastructure, and transportation. He is a standing committee member on justice policy. MacLaren maintains government often does a poor job of serving its residents and too often is interfering in areas it shouldn’t be involved in. He was prompted to enter politics by a passion to “push back” against a growing government. “We are over regulated. Did you know there are 385,000 regulations in the province of Ontario?” he said. “Did you ever imagine there are 385,000 things you could do wrong?” The most important issue facing his constituents, he said, is the escalating cost of living. The solution is for government

to control cost it is responsible for: reduce tax on electricity, properties, and more. “Seniors on fixed incomes, lower middle class people, these are the ones that could be taxed out of their homes; that are being taxed out of their homes.” Asked which aspects of his party’s platform will be most important to voters in the riding, MacLaren pointed to the tackling of “wasteful spending” and rising public debt and deficit. He noted the Liberal government “gave away” $5.7 billion to 39 businesses in the 27 days before the election was called. He doesn’t believe those who called it an investment.

the riding that he wants to represent, and that’s just not the way to do the job.” One of the comments she has heard from residents is that “even staunch conservatives” are not being represented, she said. Job creation and transportation are two of the largest issues in the riding, she said. Stevens cited the Liberal’s funding support for various businesses, as well as the $220 million pledged to high-tech giant Cisco over the next 10 years to provide 1,700 jobs, as an example of the Liberal’s job creation strategy. Stevens contended that most of those 1,700 jobs would be coming to the Carleton-Mississippi Mills riding. “We need to make sure that we are investing in business to make sure that those jobs are being created,” she said. The Liberals are committed to supporting Ottawa’s light rail transit plan, said Stevens, with $14 billion in the proposed budget for transportation outside of Toronto and Hamilton.

Adam Kveton/Metroland

Rosalyn Stevens: Ontario Liberal Party candidate Stevens would not say whether or not this kind of funding and other proposed service improvements to things like geriatric care would increase taxes, though she said it could. Early childhood education and child-care supports are important issues for Stevens,

she said. As for how to support those kinds of initiatives, Stevens said, “I can promise you right now that it’s something very close to my heart and something that I will look into.” For more information on the party’s plans, visit ontarioliberalplan.ca.

Energy retrofits are part of plan Continued from page 19

West said the Green Party would support Ottawa’s light rail transit project, and would set aside $3 billion to fund transit in Ontario. He commented that the city’s most affordable plan, one that would have the Confederation line stop well short of Kanata, is not good enough, and that the number of local bus routes have to increase. If elected, the Green Party would look to reallocate taxes rather than increase them, he said. That would include closing HST loopholes and doubling the employer health-care tax exemption from $450,000 to $900,000 for businesses with payrolls less than $5 million. The tax exemption would be off-set with a one per cent increase in Bay Street corporate taxes and

would increase local jobs, said West. The party’s biggest money saver would be amalgamating the public and Catholic school boards. This would save $1.2 to $1.6 billion a year, he said. As for the party’s stance on energy creation, West highlighted a home retrofit grant of $4 million over four years. “The Green Party is all about conservation. So rather than adding new generators and new nuclear plants ... we would rather see money put towards home retrofits to conserve energy,” said West. The Green Party would continue to subsidize green energy creation, but work on keeping things like windmills at a greater distance from residential areas, he said.

NDP candidate champions hard work, incrementalism Derek Dunn

derek.dunn@metroland.com

News – When asked about the incumbent MPP, CarletonMississippi Mills NDP candidate John Hansen often recalls a meeting in March with 20 unemployed computer engineers. It didn’t go well. “Jack MacLaren was asked what he would do for high tech. He basically said nothing,” Hansen said. “He said go into mining or forestry; that’s where the jobs are.” The exchange left a deep impression on Hansen, himself a retired high tech employee. By nature a passionate and driven individual, the perceived indifference to the plight of people in dire straits motivates Hansen to attend little-publicized events in far-off regions of Carleton-Mississippi Mills and talk to as many voters as possible. “I think, I mean I know I have a lot of value to add to complex and serious issues,” Hansen said. “I’m a passionate individual and I work very hard.”

On secondary qualities, PC MacLaren and NDP Hansen couldn’t be further apart. MacLaren is a farmer who focuses on libertarian issues such as property rights and the hardships faced by seniors on fixed incomes. He won the 2011 election largely on standard Tory messaging that says government can’t do anything as well as the private sector and lower taxes always improve the economy. Hansen has lived in Kanata for about 35 years, and focuses on transit issues and investing in start-ups. While campaigning he meets many young people at the door. They are well educated, have large debts, but can’t find work. At bus stops many say they have a job, but their spouse or adult child either can’t find one or work for minimum wage. Many others say they have work, meaning “consulting” work, but that often means they don’t have a predictable cash flow, Hansen notes. “I’ve lived in the community for over 30 years. And worked in

John Hansen: NDP candidate the community and understand what people have been going through. It’s tough out there in high tech, but also in government and other sectors Ottawa has traditionally created jobs,” Hansen said. However, Hansen doesn’t talk like the prototype New Democrat. Trained in the hard-grinding work of sales, where you rise or fall based on verifiable numbers,

he is a champion of hard work, doing more with less. He supports social programs as a means of bolstering the economy. He doesn’t pull at the heartstrings, saying the misfortunate need to be shown compassion for compassion’s sake. He talks about reducing the cost of household bills and bringing good-paying jobs to the riding because it will benefit all.

Jennifer McIntosh jennifer.mcintosh@metroland.com

News- The Kanata Kareer Group hosted a debate of candidates with engineering backgrounds at Vitesse Re-Skilling Canada Inc on May 23. The candidates included John Hansen, the NDP option for Carleton-Mississippi Mills, Conservative incumbent for Carleton-Mississippi Mills Jack MacLaren and Gordon Kubanek – an engineer-turnedteacher who is running for the Green Party in Nepean-Carleton. The Ottawa Chapter of the Professional Engineers of Ontario helped to select the candidates and provided most of the questions. Candidates were hit with questions about provincial changes to regulations that would remove the requirement for professional engineers to oversee some aspects of design work. Kubanek and Hansen supported keeping the requirement in place, but MacLaren said the government has to “get out of the way� if they want to encourage manufacturing business in Ontario.

John Hansen, the NDP candidate for Carleton-Mississippi Mills, takes questions at a debate hosted by the Ottawa Chapter of the Professional Engineers of Ontario on May 23. Most of the questions dealt with the unemployed or underemployed knowledge workers who are such a common part of the landscape in places like Canada. The debate moderator asked each candidate how their party would help to get people back to work.

MacLaren said his party would cut corporate taxes from 11.5 per cent to eight per cent. He also said his party wouldn’t support the creation of a provincial pension plan. “That’s just another payroll tax,� he said, adding he was open to suggestions from people in the industry.

John Hansen, who was an engineer with Nortel, said corporate tax cuts don’t create jobs, and he said it would be worth putting money into more re-skilling programs like the Kanata Kareer Group or programs run by Vitesse. See CANDIDATES, page 22

Candidates tackle employment issues at debate Continued from page 21

“Investing in smaller Canadian companies will help to bring jobs,” he said. Kubanek said mentorship programs to allow unemployed knowledge workers to keep their skills current or government funding to cover a productivity gap could help provide a bridge to a new job. “The government could provide subsidies to companies to cover a portion of their salaries while people get up to speed,” he said. “We have seen an unrestricted free market doesn’t work.” Candidates were also asked about their party’s commitment to infrastructure investment. Hansen said the NDP wants to use a portion of federal gas taxes to fund infrastructure and transportation projects locally.

Gordon Kubanek, the Green Party candidate for Nepean-Carleton, left, and Jack MacLaren, the Conservative candidate for Carleton-Mississippi Mills, take questions at a debate hosted by the Ottawa Chapter of the Professional Engineers of Ontario on May 23. Kubanek took a slightly different approach and said the Green Party wants to ad-

dress urban sprawl and structural changes to how we get around.

MacLaren said he’s hearing at doors that people want to see light rail in Kanata. He also said there needs to be investment on the Gardener Expressway in the Toronto area. “We could look at some private partnerships,” he said. When asked how his party would invest in students, MacLaren said his party would work to more closely align students with careers that have higher employment rates. “I don’t think reducing tu-

ition is the answer,” he said. “We do need carpenters, plumbers and electricians, but we have many students graduating from university with no job prospects.” Hansen said his party plans to freeze tuition fees and interest rates on student loans. “Schools also need to work on co-op programs,” he said. Kubanek said students are graduating saddled with massive debt. “There’s a social contract

As a way to commemorate the 100th anniversary of the First World War, Doors Open Ontario has chosen WW1 as the theme for the 2014 Ontario-wide Doors Open event season. Doors Open Ottawa, which takes place June 7 and 8, is proud to feature several buildings that tell a story regarding this important time in Canadian history. The Carleton Masonic Lodge, located at 3704 Carp Road in Stittsville, was originally built as a Presbyterian church in 1904. The great fire in 1920 damaged much of the interior of the building. When the church was restored, it became the village of Carp’s Masonic Lodge in 1925. The lodge is characterized by its original stained glass windows and beautiful oak furniture, which was used by Le Havre, a military Masonic lodge located in France and opened by the Allied Forces during WWI. Constructed in 1879, the Cartier Square Drill Hall is a military training facility nestled between the Rideau Canal and neighbouring Ottawa City Hall, which occupies land that was once an open field used for military exercises. The Cartier Square Drill Hall has been a landmark in the heart of Ottawa for over a century. Its Officers’ Mess was the scene of Sir Sam Hughes’ (Minister of Militia and Defence at the time) declaration of war by Canada in 1914, commencing our participation in the Great War. “Given that it has been at the centre of military mobilization and training, and used by a wide variety of civic organizations as part of their activities, we felt it should be shared with the Ottawa public,” says Major Gregory Ptolemy of the Cameron Highlanders of Ottawa (Duke of Edinburgh’s Own).

the Changing of the Guard ceremony on Parliament Hill. It is also home to the Cameron Highlanders of Ottawa (Duke of Edinburgh’s Own) and Governor General’s Foot Guards, reserve infantry units trained to augment the Regular Army during times of war and peace. The financial services of Diane A. Gagne operate from a Queen Anne Revival style home built in 1905 in Sandy Hill. It had previously been used as the Italian Embassy, the national headquarters of the Victorian Order of Nurses, and was once the family home to WWI aviator Billy Bishop. Bishop, born in 1894, was decorated as Canada’s top flying ace after being credited with 72 victories. This house features a spacious foyer, beautiful woodwork and mouldings, and eight fireplaces. Exterior details include a steep, cross-gambrel roof, decorative brickwork, classically inspired porches and use of slate, stone and corbelled chimneys. Pinhey’s Point Historic Site, located on Pinhey’s Point Road in Dunrobin, depicts upper- and middle-class rural life in the 19th century. In honor of the 100th commemoration of WWI, Pinhey’s Point will be featuring an exhibit highlighting the journey of Charles Pinhey and his fellow soldiers of the 38th Ottawa Battalion from Bermuda to the Somme. Margot Reid, a member of the museum committee, added, “Charlie and his battalion’s service in Bermuda and France are explored in this exhibit through his letters home, photographs, documents and personal artefacts”. Doors Open Ottawa, which takes place annually during the first full weekend in June, offers residents and visitors the opportunity to explore the city’s architectural gems, history and culture free of charge. 2014-02-8023-23320_4_en

Candidates debate hydro, agricultural issues in Pakenham News – The candidates in Carleton-Mississippi Mills were grilled with questions during an all-candidates debate at the Stewart Community Centre in Pakenham on June 2. The debate was hosted by the Arnprior Region and Lanark chapters of the Ontario Federation of Agriculture. The first question was: what will your party do to rein in the escalating hydro-electricity rates? Liberal candidate Rosalyn Stevens said it was a question on everyone’s mind and she thinks people need to look at hydro from a very wide scale perspective. “When our government took office, we took over a broken system,” said Stevens.

“The PCs had tried to privatize hydro and messed that up big time and we were left with a $12-billion debt that they tried to tack on to your bills as the debt retirement charge.” She said her party is trying to pay that off two years earlier than planned, saving taxpayers $70 right away off each of their hydro bills. “We are working hard to make sure we have a system that will support our needs,” added Stevens. “Sometimes that means in-

vesting in infrastructure, but we have the plan to mitigate cost as well.” PC candidate Jack MacLaren offered three key ideas when it came to hydro: stopping the Green Energy Act because he said “we cannot afford it,” ending the Ontario Power Authority and privatization. “We would look at breaking up and privatizing Hydro One because Hydro One is an unaccountable government agency. It’s out of control and very expensive,” said MacLaren.

“There are other private electricity distributors in Ontario that are small companies like Mississippi Power in Almonte ... We should look at the idea of breaking up Hydro One, privatizing, creating competition and lowering prices.” Green party candidate Andrew West told the crowd that the best way to lower energy cost is to use less energy, and the Green plan is to put in $4 billion over four years for retrofits.

2014 Zoning Review – Phase 2 Notice of Public Information Sessions

AdbWVgYd 9g^kZ H^YZlVa`

Why? In 2013 City Council approved new Official Plan policies to create a more liveable Ottawa. To put these policies into action, the Zoning By-law needs to be updated. In some review areas, changes to existing Secondary Plans will also be made to permit the zoning updates to proceed.

How will this affect me? Zoning affects how land can be used on both public and private properties. It regulates things like types of housing, shops, schools, industries, as well as building heights and building densities. The right zoning will make sure our streets and neighbourhoods develop in ways that encourage vibrant, liveable places for all to enjoy.

Zoning changes will provide greater certainty for residents, developers, businesses and others, about what to expect when it comes to future development in the review areas.

“Not only would that help reduce your energy cost, it is also expected to create over 50,000 new jobs, many in this riding,” he said. West also wants to look at importing power from Quebec, which he says would save $1 billion per year and wants more local power. NDP candidate John Hansen pointed out that each party is just blaming the others for the current situation. “The Liberals blame the Conservatives and they forget the

billion dollar scandals; the Liberals plan is back-door privatization,” said Hansen. “Privatization, if the Conservatives do it the way the Liberals were doing it, it’s not going to work.” SPLITTING MINISTRY

In regards to the splitting of the Ministry of Agriculture and Food and Rural Affairs, each candidate had varying opinions. MacLaren said that both are valuable fields, but there was nothing wrong with one office. West wanted to form a food

and farmers council to consult with, while Hansen spoke on reducing the number of ministers and Stevens said she supported two voices at the table for agriculture. Hansen said while canvassing door-to-door, he is hearing residents are tired of the Liberal scandals and the NDP has a plan that believes in the province. West said that MacLaren was going to win the election, which drew some chuckles from members of the crowd, but emphasized that if people vote Green it will show MacLaren that his party’s issues

CHEO celebrates turning 40 with Doors Open Ottawa By Jenna Guilbeault

This year, the Children’s Hospital of Eastern Ontario will be celebrating its 40th year of service to children and youth, and what better way to celebrate than to open its doors to the public during the Doors Open Ottawa event June 7 and 8. CHEO is a world-renowned and cutting-edge pediatric care facility that specializes in research and training and is one of the few independent pediatric hospitals in Canada. CHEO is located at 401 Smyth Road in Ottawa, but they extend their services to communities in Eastern Ontario, Western Quebec, Nunavut and parts of Northern Ontario through their numerous partnerships with organizations such as Ronald McDonald House, Roger’s House, Children’s Miracle Network and Compassionate Friends of Canada. CHEO is a teaching hospital that also offers medical support to other doctors in Ottawa institutions and this, in turn, strengthens the quality of care that is offered to children and youth. Each year, CHEO provides more than 6,000 admissions, 7,000 surgeries and 170,000 clinic visits. It houses one of the busiest pediatric emergency rooms in Canada, treating more than 65,000 children and youth a year. CHEO offers

a wide range of specialized programs for youth that focus on disorders such as early language developmental disabilities and autism. CHEO’s is celebrating its 40th anniversary this year by opening its doors during Doors Open Ottawa. You can join a guided tour and get a unique behind-the-scenes look at the hospital’s cutting-edge research facilities, surgical suites and the simulation lab. Eva Schacherl, from the communications department at CHEO, says that there will be lot of interesting things for kids and adults to see. There will be child-friendly activities, and parents can experience the human library, where they can sit down one-on-one to talk with a heart surgeon or a brain surgeon, for example. Schacherl says there is a superhero theme within the hospital and she hopes that those who visit CHEO will support that theme – dressing up as superheroes encouraged! Doors Open Ottawa takes place this year during the first full weekend in June. It celebrates the historically and architecturally significant buildings in the Ottawa area by opening their doors, free of admission, for the public to see. 2014-02-8023-23320_5_en

matter. MacLaren finished by saying the Conservatives will balance the budget in two years, create jobs, reduce the red tape for businesses, and cancel the Green Energy Act and the Ontario Power Authority. Stevens said her party is going to invest in people not job cuts and that the riding needs better representation. She then quoted what she called a “shocking” statistic from Hansard indicating that MacLaren had not mentioned Almonte, Pakenham, Munster or Constance Bay once at Queen’s Park but had mentioned Quebec 83 times. “We are not in Quebec, Jack, we are in Carleton-Mississippi Mills and we deserve somebody who is going to stand up for our concerns, our issues,” she said. “You deserve someone who is going to listen to you, who is going to respect you and who’s going to take your issues forward to Queen’s Park,” said Stevens. “But if you go by Jack’s numbers, I guess there are no issues here.”

WHAT’S KEEPING ME BUSY Kanata North is a busy and exciting place for a City Councillor. I’ve been dealing with issues in the ward over the last few weeks that take a lot of time but are important to maintaining the community services and values that make our Kanata such a great place to be. So here is a brief summary of those matters, big and small, that keep my days full of activity. At City Hall I serve as Chair of Ottawa Community Housing, Trustee on the Ottawa Public Library Board and Board member for the Kanata North Business Improvement Area, as well as reading reports and participating as a member of the Transit Commission, Transportation Committee, IT Committee, Audit Committee and City Council. Most evenings are filled with Community meetings on items such as the Carp Landfill, Kanata Town Centre, Kanata Avenue Environmental Assessment, March Road Expansion Lands, a new Business Park at Huntmar and my monthly Town Hall Meeting, together with fundraisers to support local activities. Planning issues that impact existing residents like the proposed apartment on Teron Road, locating sites for community mailboxes, the proposed retirement residence to be attached to the apartment on Varley Lane, what is needed for a buffer between homes on Celtic Ridge and the expansion lands, park plans for Arcadia and Richardson Ridge, a place for a new school off Terry Fox Drive with its complexities of access, servicing and site control, new business buildings on March Road, making Klondike safer from March to Sandhill, protecting and adding to the Town Centre Park, construction of a roundabout at Campeau and Huntmar, and buildings up to 30 storeys in the Town Centre - all require review, meetings with impacted residents & city staff and co-ordination of community requests with budgets and existing conditions. Then there are meetings with my staff to plan for upcoming events that we’re involved with – a BBQ to thank those who donated to the Richcraft Recreation Complex Legacy Commemorative Walkway; Canada Day activities; the Kanata North Picnic on July 23rd; the opening of the new Beaverbrook Library in August; and Expo 55+ and Kanata Race Day, both in September. As well, there are urgent issues that emerge including: Getting an evaluation for a pedestrian crossing on Campeau where a cycling accident happened last week and where commuters have trouble crossing to their homes in the evening; meeting with West End Councillors to get the right conditions to minimize the impact of the new landfill site approved for Carp Road; meeting on site where a park is impacted by blasting from a developer to work out a solution; supporting a resident by providing a sign for an arboretum in our community; and getting staff to create the Wildlife Construction Protocol to ensure that animals can relocate safely when development occurs. Then there are the ongoing responses to residents on items like lawn damage from winter operations, buses arriving early or late or not at all, dog issues, garbage issues, traffic concerns, requests for meetings, support for activities and more. It’s busy, but getting things done, supporting community requests and seeing the benefits from the volunteer efforts of so many is very inspiring.

News - The debt. Pensions. Hydro bills. Health care. Catholic schools. These were but some of the questions asked at a Carleton-Mississippi Mills candidates meeting in Stittsville on May 30. But there were also some questions of a more local nature, covering the future of Kemptville College, the possibility of new schools in Stittsville and Kanata and the proposed Energy East pipeline which will run past Stittsville. In response to a question about the future of Kemptville College, Liberal party candidate Rosalyn Stevens emphasized her farm and 4H background and that many of her friends had attended Kemptville College. She pledged to fight to keep it open. “I know how important Kemptville College is to our community,” she said, adding that she would not leave a single stone unturned in fighting to keep it open.

ing of Kemptville College an “unthinkable thing to do” and said that a PC government would provide the funding to keep Kemptville College open as an agricultural college. New Democratic Party candidate John Hansen voiced similar support, saying that the NDP supports the continuation of Kemptville College. Green party candidate Andrew West, while admitting that he was not aware of Kemptville College, nonetheless cited his growing up on a farm in the Owen Sound area and noted that the Green party wants to protect agriculture. “Farmers feed us,” he said. Ottawa public school board trustee Lynn Scott asked the candidates about capital funding for new schools and how each of them would expedite getting funding for a new public high school in Stittsville and new elementary schools in Stittsville and Kanata. Hansen wants to fix the process of funding new schools which he called a “lottery” at present. “I want to fix the process,” he said. MacLaren said that the Tories would get the province’s

financial house in order so that there will be the dollars available for building new schools. He acknowledged that there is a need for these schools in the area. Stevens noted that there are three new school projects approved in Kanata at present and said that if the OttawaCarleton District School Board gives priority to the Stittsville school in its capital funding request, then a Liberal government will provide the funds. West laid the blame on the fact that the province has two publicity funded school systems, the public and the Catholic, causing $1.2 billion to be wasted on duplication. With regard to responding to a question about the proposed Energy East pipeline that will see an existing natural gas pipeline that runs near Stittsville converted to be an oil pipeline, it was only Hansen who voiced concerns based on the age of the existing pipeline and the fact that it supplies the area with natural gas at present. He said that he was not in favour of the Energy East pipeline. In reply to an earlier question, MacLaren confirmed that

he believes that human-caused climate change is a hoax. Responding to a question about the province’s financial situation and its debt, MacLaren said that the solution is to get the province’s financial house in order, promising that the Tories would balance the budget in two years’ time. One aspect of this will be to cancel the Green Energy Act which provides what he called unaffordable subsidies to green energy producers. West disagreed with this view of the Green Energy Act, placing the blame instead on the cost to refurbish nuclear reactors. He wants to see the money used instead to retrofit homes so that people will use less energy. He also favours acquiring water-generated energy from Quebec. Hansen spoke against what he called the Tories’ austerity approach, saying that the Tories’ plan for the economy will hurt the high tech community in this area. He advocated dropping the tax rate for small companies while maintaining existing tax credit programs. Stevens said that growing the economy by investing in new businesses and creating

jobs is the way to deal with the current debt situation of the province. “We have to look at growing the economy,” she said. Just how the current pension situation should be improved was seen differently by the candidates. Hansen said that the best way forward is to improve the existing Canada Pension Plan, adding that the NDP does not think that a provincial pension plan is the way to go at present. MacLaren said that defined benefit pension plans are not sustainable and advocated for defined contribution pensions. West said that the Green party supports pension reform but added that there is a need for more innovative approaches to solve the problem. Stevens said that the Liberals are the only party in Ontario with a plan for a fully costed pension plan. She said that the Liberals want to make sure that seniors in the future can enjoy retirement security and are able to retire with respect. The candidates were asked how they would solve the problem of high hydro bills

that people are receiving. Stevens noted that Ontario is the first jurisdiction in North America to be coal-free with regard to the generation of power. She said that the previous Tory government in the province had left the hydro system in a shambles, requiring investments in the system by the Liberals. She noted that there have been no “brownouts” in the province recently, unlike previously. “Our hydro system is a mess,” Hansen said, blaming it on Ontario premiers who keep what he termed “playing” with the system. He said that the NDP would turn to private industry to come up with the solution to the problem while adding that the NDP will take the HST off hydro bills. West proclaimed the party’s support for green energy, advocating that the setback distance for windmills from residential properties should be increased, noting that in other jurisdictions such setbacks are up to 5,000 metres whereas Ontario’s setback distance is only 550 metres.

He again advocated for the Green party’s plan to introduce a program so that homes could be retrofitted to be more energy efficient. He said that this would not only create jobs but would save people money. MacLaren reiterated that the province’s Green Energy Act is something that the province just “cannot afford.” He said that nuclear power plants are cheap producers of hydro once they are constructed. Health care spending and long waiting periods were the focus of another question. MacLaren said that a Tory government would make better use of health-care dollars, partly by getting ride of the Local Health Integration Networks and the Community Care Access Centres with the savings going to having more front-line personnel instead. He advocated for a focus on home care, calling it the happiest and cheapest place for a person to be, while also supporting the creation of more long-term care beds.

He wants to streamline the health-care system so that it is “better and quicker.” West said that the Green party supports better care for seniors and having more long term care available but added that his party wants to look at prevention in health care as a first step. Hansen noted that it was the NDP which introduced socialized medicine to Canada and promised that the Ontario NDP will improve the system by cutting emergency room wait times, by opening 24-hour clinics staffed by doctors and nurses and guaranteeing five days of support at home for anyone who has been released from hospital. Stevens showed support for more health care hubs in communities and voiced a commitment that all Ontario residents should have access to a private health care provider. She supports the LHIN’s, saying that they ensure that decision making on health care matters happen at the local level rather than by the bureaucracy in Toronto. The candidates were asked

for their positions on the abolition of Catholic school boards in the province. Stevens noted that the current school system is working well, adding that any abolition of Catholic schools is a constitutional issue. Hansen also referenced the constitutional issue, saying that the current situation is “the way it is” and is probably the way that it will be for a long time. MacLaren said that his party has no plans to change the current situation with public and Catholic school boards. It was only West who voiced a differing opinion, claiming that the province had the power to amend the constitution in this regard. “We can do it,” he said. Former Goulbourn township councillor and former Stittsville Village Association president Louise Beggs served as the moderator for this candidates meeting which attracted about 80 people to the Stittsville United Church which was the site of the meeting. The candidates meeting was organized by the Stittsville Village Association.

Don’t let learning slip while school out News - Everybody loves vacation time and the break from the ordinary routine. Students are no exception. However, for students, vacation time can be detrimental to learning as school breaks are often when school

momentum and good habits begin to slip. “While children should have fun with their time off, they shouldn’t take a complete break from learning,” says Dr. Nick Whitehead, the CEO and founder of Oxford

time to pay special attention to maintaining habits. This is the last stretch of the school year and final report cards are not that far away.” He adds that in the scope of the school year, spring break is a critical time for students;

Learning. According to Dr. Whitehead, maintaining learning momentum over spring break is especially important. “More than any other school-year break, the spring holidays are an important

by not taking a break from learning, students can actually make academic gains rather than losing momentum. Most students have projects, essays, assignments, or reading that can be worked on during this period. Even if due dates are weeks away, holidays are the perfect time to get a head start on schoolwork. According to Dr. White-

head, if students do not have assigned work, it is a good idea to spend at least an hour a day engaged in activities to keep their brains in learning mode. By keeping the brain engaged over the school break - even in just an hour a day - students will stay mentally agile and motivated to learn. News Canada

By Jim Watson

Since long before I ran for City Council in Capital Ward in 1991, people had been asking what we should do with Lansdowne Park. It was a historical landmark, on that everyone could agree. But should it be preserved as it is? Should it be renovated? Should it be torn down? These were some of the many questions that were asked about Lansdowne, without answers, from before my time as a Councillor right up until only a few years ago. It was clear that the status quo at Lansdowne was not sustainable. A crumbling stadium surrounded by a sea of asphalt was an eyesore for the city especially when the beautiful Aberdeen Pavilion sat in the middle of it. But what to do? This council inherited a plan that would see Lansdowne Park transformed into a mixed-use facility. The plan needed work and we worked hard to not only improve it but also to get shovels in the ground and implement it so that years of indecision would be behind us. Some people raised concerns about our plan for Lansdowne and I agree that neither the process by which it came about nor the plan itself is perfect. But perfection is the enemy of getting things done. Our plan means a significant improvement and revitalization of Lansdowne and I am thrilled that it is almost complete. On July 18th we will welcome the Ottawa REDBLACKS to the CFL at TD Place for their home opener. The long wait for CFL football to return to Ottawa is now over and I can’t wait to be there to cheer on our team as they push for the Grey Cup. TD Place will also play host to the Ottawa Fury soccer team whose season is already underway as they do our city proud in the North American Soccer League. In August, we will open the urban park at east end of Lansdowne that will see three times more green space (18 acres) than was previously there, four times more trees, 7.2 kilometres of sidewalks and pathways, and five pieces of public art. Lansdowne Park had always been a misnomer because there had never been much park space in it. Now, there will be ample space for people to have a picnic, throw a Frisbee, or just enjoy our beautiful city outdoors. And finally this fall, our retail shops will open. A mix of stores and restaurants both familiar and new will make up this site that will serve to bring people to Lansdowne year-round in addition to providing great options for before and after a game or concert. This promises to be an exciting summer and fall for Lansdowne and for our city. It has been a long time coming but I am happy that Lansdowne Park will once again be a place that Ottawa residents can be proud of. Watch for the official park opening where we will pay tribute to Lansdowne’s past with a community celebration on Saturday August 16. R0012711363-0605

Runners participate in a Beaver Chase series race held on May 13, 2013. “Some people like to come out and run it as fast as they can,” he said. “Others like to come out with their friends and just kind of enjoy the night, run together very semiserious, but with a bit of a leisure component to it. I would say that’s what we try and encourage.” The race has about 50 to 75 runners taking part in each event, said Du Vall, who hopes the Beaver Chase could grow to up to 125 runners for each race. Participating costs $5 per adult, and $2 for children 16-and-under. The next race takes place on June 10. Registration begins prior to the 6:30 p.m. start time of the race.

Sports - Ottawa’s Beaver Chase is up and running for its 21st season, with Run Ottawa holding the event every second Tuesday of the month in north Kanata. The event, which began in 1994, is dubbed a “simple, low-key and very friendly event,” by one of the founders, and current Run Ottawa events operations manager, Joe Du Vall. The idea was to have a race once a month between May and August that would give both novice and experienced runners a chance to have an event timed and see what it’s like. Now, the Beaver Chase offers six- and two-kilometre races on the Monk Conservation Trail and through the Nordion Canada campus. New this year, the runs will start and finish at the Richcraft Recreation Complex on Innovation Drive. Runners will have access to the bathrooms and lobby, though Du Vall said organizers strive to keep as much of the event outdoors as possible. That is a nod to the runs origins. The race has always been close to nature, especially the surprisingly quick critter that gave the event its name. Du Vall said he recalls the very first race the group held, when the frontrunner was greeted on the Monk Trail by a beaver who wanted to take part. The runner, who was well ahead of the rest of the pack, said the beaver started scurrying alongside him, and eventually overtook him, said Du Vall. The furry critter eventually stopped by a pond and watched the rest of the runners go by. “Everybody had a good laugh over that,” said Du Vall. After that, the organizers decided to call their event the Beaver Chase Running Series. Du Vall said he encourages runners of all levels to come out and experience the race.

PC lovers combine passion for tech and giving back Erin McCracken erin.mccracken@metroland.com

News - Jeff Dubois’s voice radiates crystal clear over the telephone. But, given his passion for computer technology, which began in the late 1980s, it shouldn’t come as a surprise that he doesn’t use a regular telephone landline to make a call. In a recent telephone interview with the Ottawa South News, he piped his voice over the Internet, by way of voice-over Internet protocol or VOIP. “I have not paid a telephone bill in about seven years, relying instead on free VOIP alternatives,” said Dubois, who sits on the board of directors for the non-profit Ottawa PC Users’ Group. Dubois’ passion for technology is shared by other members of the not-for-profit group, and for that reason they enjoy learning from one another and other high-tech experts during the group’s monthly meetings. Their presentations at the Canada Science and Technology Museum are free of charge for the public and run the gamut on topics, from ebook technology to 3D printing to video editing. Given the constantly evolving nature of technology, there is never a shortage of high-tech topics to choose from, said Dubois. “It changes so rapidly and it is so vast and all-encompassing that no, that is never an issue,” he said. But as passionate as members of the Ottawa PC Users’ Group are about discussing desktop computers and a diverse array of computer-related applications, issues and news, they also enjoy giving back to the community. “It’s more than just a bunch of people with plastic pocket protectors and Band-aids on their glasses sitting about talking about transfer rates and gigabytes,” said Dubois,

who sits on the group’s board of directors as public relations chair. “We’re more than that.” In addition to their December silent auction of donated technology, which last year raised funds for the Ottawa Food Bank, the group will host their second annual e-waste PHOTO COURTESY NANCY KELLY collection event at the museum prior to the start of its June 11 meeting.

3 Ways to Buy a Home for Less Money Ottawa - If you're like most homebuyers, you have two primary considerations in mind when you start looking for a home. First, you want to find the home that perfectly meets your needs and desires, and secondly, you want to purchase this home for the lowest possible price. When you analyze those successful home buyers who have been able to purchase the home they want for thousands of dollars below a seller's asking price, some common denominators emerge. While the negotiating skills of your agent are important, there are three additional key factors that must come into play long before you ever submit an offer. This topic has been the subject of extensive analysis by Industry Experts, and a summary of their findings, and a specific step-by-step purchase plan for homebuyers, can be found in a new special

report called "Homebuyers: How to Save Thousands of Dollars When You Buy". This free report outlines the psychology of how a seller sets their asking price, and gives you 3 simple steps to follow, before you even set foot in a seller's home, which could help you to successfully slash thousands of dollars off the price of the home you want.

Between June 9 and October 13, 2014, the City of Ottawa will be conducting a larviciding program under the authority of the local Medical OfďŹ cer of Health to control larval mosquitoes in order to prevent their development into vectors of West Nile Virus. Altosid pellets (PCP No. 21809) will be placed into catch basins of storm drains within the city. Vectobac 1200L (Bti) (PCP No. 21602) and Vectobac 200G (EPA 18158) will be applied to ditches and temporary or permanent pools including storm water management ponds within the City. Vectolex CG (PCP 28008) will be applied by Ministry of Environment licensed applicators or trained technicians. The 2014 larviciding program is similar to the 2013 larviciding program.

The public is welcome to drop off unwanted electronics, including desktop and portable computers, monitors, televisions, keyboards, hard drives, printers, photocopies and typewriters, telephones, radios and speakers, from 5:30 to 7 p.m. The public is also invited to attend the group’s free meeting which gets under way after the e-waste event at 7:30 p.m. in the museum’s auditorium. The presentation will go until 9 p.m., and attendees will break up into smaller discussion groups until 10 p.m. The PC organization, which dates back to 1982, boasts around 150 members, most them from the Ottawa area, and they range in age from their early 30s to early 70s. “We have people who work in high tech and we have people who attend who have very limited knowledge, which is why they attend,” said Dubois, an Alta Vista resident and retired aerial and underwater photographer. Members aren’t satisfied with keeping their high-tech knowledge to themselves. In fact, their motto is ‘users helping users.’ For this reason, they present between 60 and 80 free weekly public educational workshops at Ottawa Public Library branches across the city, on topics ranging from social media and digital photography to the Linux open-source operating system and securing

home networks. Despite what Dubois calls “gloomsday” predictions of the demise of the desktop computer, he and other group members remain loyal fans of this device.

“When you look at things like tablets and smartphones, they’ll never replace the desktop, at least not in the immediate future, because they lack an effective input device (such as a keyboard),” said

Dubois, who owns five desktops as well as a tablet, and several other devices, and operates his own email server. “I always joke ... that (tablets are) wonderful devices, but you wouldn’t want to write War and Peace on one,” he said with a laugh. “Can you imagine trying to type large amounts of data into an

on-screen keyboard?” The group’s outdoor e-waste drop-off zone on June 11 will be under a tent to the left of the entrance of the Canada Science and Technology Museum, located at 1867 St. Laurent Blvd. To learn more about the Ottawa PC Users’ Group, please visit opcug.ca. R0012736595_0529

“The idea of a waterfront linear park that would run from the Canadian War Museum up to Britannia on the Sir John A. Macdonald Parkway is an idea for the long term. It’s not something you’ll see coming next year or something,� Kristmanson said. “This is kind of an aspirational ‘blue-skying’ of what could be done with the parkway in the long term. It could be 10 years before something happens.� He was hoping people would come up with ideas to create better access to the waterfront and add more activities or amenities that would attract people there or entice the large volumes of cyclists who use the pathways to stick around. Connecting the parkway lands back into the “urban fabric,� especially near the war museum, is another goal of Kristmanson’s. The main theme of discussions around various tables at the consultation was how much people cherished the green space that is already there. “It’s a fantastic amenity. Any changes need to be in addition to, rather than a change,� said Ben Gianni, a professor from Carleton University’s school of architecture.

Michael Powell of the Dalhousie Community Association agreed. “It’s less about creating a linear park than expanding on what’s already there,� he said. “I think they’re a great asset. They are already very well used and much loved and beautiful,� Kristmanson said. “But you could imagine ... As society changes, as means of transportation change, as climate changes, all of things things, it will open up new possibilities and opportunities.� Some ideas floated by participants included adding washroom facilities – perhaps composting toilets, suggested Melissa Hugh of the Woodroffe North Community Association – and adding interpretative signs to explain the flora and fauna of the area. Several participants pointed out that access across the parkway to the water is limited and even obvious access points – such as well-used routes near Tunney’s Pasture – are not made into actual paths. While the city and the NCC are at loggerheads over a proposed western extension of the light-rail line that the city hopes to run through a portion of the NCC’s parkway lands at Rochester Field, Kristmanson said the linear park consultation doesn’t

relate to the rail project. “I think it will help inform the broader consultation about western light rail and how it should work, what it should do and what it forms part of, but that’s not part of the objective tonight,� he said. “We’re looking at what people are doing around the world with waterfront spaces and using them in imaginative ways,� Kristmason said. The initiative is part of a broader consultation on what Canadians would like to see the NCC’s parkways become. More shoreline planning projects are in the pipes, Kristmanson said, likely starting with the Quebec side of the Ottawa River.

FINALLY, YOUR SEARCH FOR THE PERFECT HOME IS OVER...

Hunt Club resident Reid Farquharson, front, and Uplands resident Andres Carranco, both dragonboat coaches with the Rideau Canoe Club, put their paddles to work in the Rideau River at Mooney’s Bay Park on June 2. Organizers, coaches, paddlers and volunteers with the Tim Hortons Ottawa Dragon Boat Festival ensured six dragon boats made it into the water safely and over to the Rideau Canoe Club on the opposite shore. The boats are now being used for practice sessions ahead of the 21st annual festival, which will be held June 19 to 22. The series of races is expected to draw 200 teams.

News - Two people can swim for the price of one at all 21 city pools on June 7 to encourage people to be active on National Health and Fitness Day. The city will offer public swimming completely free of charge for one session at each of six city pools on the same day: Bob MacQuarrie Recreation Complex Orléans, the Canterbury Recreation Complex, the Lowertown Pool, the Pinecrest Recreation Complex, the Richcraft Recreation Complex and the Kanata Leisure Centre. That final location was a lastminute addition by Kanata South Coun. Allan Hubley, who was one of the councillors who jumped on the free-swimming motion proposed by Rideau-Vanier Coun. Mathieu Fleury, a former city lifeguard. Somerset Coun. Diane Holmes questioned why income levels were not a factor in choosing the locations. Gloucester-Southgate Coun. Diane Deans wanted to know why city staff chose some pools over others for the free swimming. Dan Chenier, who is in charge of city recreation, said the pools were chosen to provide a geographical spread and expand from the three locations where free swimming was offered last year for health and fitness day. The selected pools offered the largest capacity to accommodate clients, Chenier said. The goal of the promotion is to get people interested in swimming more regularly, Chenier said, although he couldn’t provide numbers showing whether the promotion made a difference in the number of swimming memberships or day passes purchased afterwards. “At the three pools (last year) we did see a marginal increase,” Chenier said. The real value of the $1,500 the city planned to spend on free swimming in five locations is its promotional value, he said. “Behind all of this is our role in promoting physical activity,” Chenier said. Orléans Coun. Bob Monette said he’d like to see the program expanded across the city next year. After a lengthy debate, council approved the promotion unanimously.

Tim Hudak’s education agenda:

Tim Hudak’s Conservatives say they will cut 19,000 teachers, education assistants, custodians, and other school staff. It’s really kids who will pay the price. • less individual attention for every child • less support for students with special needs • cuts to vital programs kids count on We can’t afford to relive the Mike Harris years of cuts, overcrowded classrooms, and chaos. The cost to Ontario’s future is too high.

On June 12th

CHEO launches virtual superhero app Staff

LAURA MUELLER/METROLAND

Holy city council, Batman! Two pint-sized super heroes – Curtis (Captain America) and Evan (Batman) Corrigan – were on hand with Children’s Hospital of Eastern Ontario CEO Alex Munter at city council’s May 28 meeting to promote CHEO’s 2014 fundraising telethon theme: ‘Be a SuperHERO for CHEO.’ Mayor Jim Watson declared June 6 as CHEO Superhero Day in Ottawa. The telethon will take place June 7 and 8. The group was joined by a special appearance of ‘Batman’ – otherwise known as Max Lauzon of the League of Superheroes, a group of non-profit caped crusaders who will appear at charitable events.

Notice of Completion Queen Street Renewal (From Bronson Avenue to Elgin Street) Environmental Study Report The City of Ottawa has completed an Environmental Assessment of the Queen Street Renewal Project. The City has identified the need to renew Queen Street to upgrade the streetscape and pedestrian environment in anticipation of the commencement of the Confederation Line service. The streetscape/ surface renewal on Queen Street between Bronson Avenue and Elgin Street is being coordinated with the construction of the Confederation Line light rail transit (LRT) through the downtown area. The Recommended Plan will provide one shared-use travel lane in each direction with turning lanes where essential, while providing maximum space for wide sidewalks including opportunities for on-street parking, loading and/or taxi space. The City has planned this project under Schedule C of the Municipal Class Environmental Assessment. The Environmental Study Report (ESR) has been completed and by this Notice is being placed in the public record for review. Subject to the comments received as a result of this Notice and receipt of necessary approvals, the City intends to proceed to detailed design. The implementation timing has not yet been confirmed however construction activities will be coordinated with the Confederation Line project.

‘Don’t stay quiet’ Continued from page 54

The funds will be used to cover the publishing costs. The students behind Teen MINDS were awarded the top entrepreneurial award in the country for a school-based project on May 29. Nolan said they are working to get teachers in other schools to have their students write or illustrate a submission before the June 22 contest deadline. An educator link on the website (teenminds.com) has a six-step lesson plan that is perfect to help fill one of the last classes before school ends. “This is the best time of year for teachers to do this instead of trying to scramble for lesson fillers,” Nolan said. “This would be an amazing opportunity to do this in your class.” Youth ages 12 to 23 are invited to submit a story or image supporting youth mental health. Subjects include dysfunctional families, abuse, eating disorders, cancer, schizophrenia, smoking, di-

vorce, self-harm, racism, suicide, homophobia and body image issues, as well as positive attributes such as choosing your mood, being grateful, perspective, love, goal-setting, resiliency and friendships. Submissions will be published in the book and prizes will be awarded to the top five in each category.

other students to talk about issues,” Nolan said. In a previous article, the students behind Teen MINDS said they hope the personal stories published will help others dealing with difficult situations and to let them know there are others in similar situations.

It’s the opportunity to potentially save a life.” JUSTIN NOLAN

“We’re trying to really engage youth and inspire them,” said Nolan. “(People need to) recognize it’s an opportunity to make a difference. It’s the opportunity to potentially save a life.” Since launching the initiative earlier this year, there have been many conversations surrounding the issues of youth mental health. “It’s been a trigger to allow

“Everyone goes through problems,” said Caitlin Clouthier, a Grade 8 student. “It’ll definitely help people to know they aren’t alone.” And although there’s been a local push to destigmatize youth mental health issues, it still exists. People will often support the cause with donations, but no one is really talking openly about their experiences. Teen MINDS aims to change that. “Everyone goes through it,” said Caitlin. “Don’t stay quiet; it doesn’t do any good to keep it all in. People care. Speak out.” For more information, visit teenminds.com.

City holds little sway over landfill expansion Zoning issues to be dealt with; serious concerns to be handled by advisory committee Derek Dunn derek.dunn@metroland.com

News – The City of Ottawa held a meeting last week in Carp that showed, going for-

ward, how little power it has over the landfill expansion. Waste Management plans to create a second site next to the colloquially named ‘Carp Mountain’ at Carp Road and

Highway 417. It has received the provincial government’s blessing but requires a zoning change approval from the city. City planner Cheryl McWilliams told the dozen or more concerned residents at the agricultural hall meeting on May 28 that the city has a say on a few requirements: exterior visuals such as landscaping (including tree species), berms, fencing,

and the like; the location and size of parking lots and internal roads; buffer zone sizes; on-site water treatment for workers; and building height. “So it gets down to a fair bit of detail as to the peripheral things,” McWilliams said. “The zoning process doesn’t get into some of the concerns raised.” A few fears raised include: groundwater contamination if landfill leachate seeps into

the fractured limestone below: increased traffic on the already-congested area roads; odour similar to levels that forced the province to reprimand Waste Management about six years ago; a drop in property values due to having a nearby landfill; the catchment area is not limited to Ottawa and area, but could see trash come in from other parts of Ontario; a working landfill situated among the

three fast-growing communities of Kanata, Stittsville and Carp. The four west Ottawa councillors at the meeting explained there is an advisory committee made up of city and company officials, along with community stakeholders. The committee will negotiate agreements on the contentious issues. See COMMENT, page 58

Comment period ends in early July

grand

OPENING

Continued from page 56

The committee has no legal power; Waste Management can accept or reject recommendations. The company has publicly stated it wants to satisfy area residents. Residents at the meeting doubted there is enough time for negotiations, and accused Waste Management of accelerating the process to silence critics. The 120-day comment period ends in early July, when council votes on the plan. Company officials were at the meeting but declined comment. One resident found it difficult to believe a landfill could be created within city limits without council’s agreement. Other area communities in recent years have rejected landfills.

“If you really wanted to stop it, you could have.” Another asked: “The city has no authority over a company coming in and contaminating our groundwater? Doesn’t that infuriate you?”

Then we found out in the media that it was approved COUN. ELI EL-CHANTIRY

West Carleton-March Coun. Eli El-Chantiry recounted city efforts to block the expansion, inlcuding the mayor’s letter to the environment minister, the 18 council-backed demands, the 20 public meetings and many residents’ submissions, and the rise of opposition citizen

groups. “Then we found out in the media that it was approved,” he said. Kanata North Coun. Marianne Wilkinson warned against taking the company to the Ontario Municipal Board (OMB). Any gains made at the committee level would be lost at the OMB, she said. Incorrect information has appeared on the city’s website. Residents asked if missing addresses is enough to delay the entire process. It was explained that the map shows the affected properties and that is enough to keep the process on track. “There was no intention to mislead,” McWilliams said. No one representing the province was on hand. Carleton-Mississippi Mills NDP candidate John Hansen attended the meeting.

Are you ready for some football? Above, defensive line coach Leroy Blugh demonstrates for RedBlacks defenders what he wants to see during a drill at the team’s rookie camp on May 28 at Carleton University. Blugh, who grew up in Napanee, Ont., played in the CFL from 1989 to 2003, winning the Grey Cup with the Edmonton Eskimos in 1993. At left, RedBlacks rookie offensive players carry out drills including a smooth handoff during a practice. The first action against another CFL team comes June 14 when Ottawa travels to Saskatchewan for a pre-season game. The RedBlacks first home game at TD Place is July 18 against Toronto.

Drivers should look for ‘Super Sharrows’ on Bank Speed to change to 20 km/hr and vehicles must travel single file Michelle Nash michelle.nash@metroland.com

News - A new single file designation for Bank Street Bridge aims to make cycling more safe and comfortable. Capital Coun. David Chernushenko said he believes he has found a decent compromise to designated bike lanes on the Bank Street Bridge. New “super sharrows,” lane markings reminding motorists they must share the road with cyclists, will be place on the outside lanes on the bridge this month. “The point is going to be either stay behind the cyclist or change lanes,” Chernushenko said. “We will see if this helps bring out more cyclists as well as have less cyclists using the sidewalk. If we see this change that will be how we know we have made it more safe.” With construction at Lansdowne Park, there is a temporary lane reduction. Northbound motorists are currently not supposed to pass cyclists, but Chernushenko said many do and the situation becomes more difficult as the northbound curbside lane over the Bank Street Bridge is currently closed

due to construction on the east side of Bank Street. The councillor said this has left many cyclists feeling squeezed out and not safe, and has led to some taking the sidewalk instead. To fix this, without creating designated bike lanes, all existing “Share the Road” signage on the Bank Street Bridge will be changed to “Single File”. Motorists are no longer allowed to share the space with cyclists and are instead expected to follow behind cyclists in single file. Also, speeds for the bridge will be reduced to 20 kilometres per hour. The bike “sharrows” will be visible on a green background and will be placed in the middle of the southbound curbside lane. Similar cycling markings exist on Cummings Bridge in Vanier. MICHELLE NASH/METROLAND An avid cyclist himself, Chernushenko said although this is not as ideal New ‘super sharrows’ will be painted on the Bank Street Bridge, similar to sharrows on Cummings Bridge. as a segregated lane, this should help keep cyclists safe along this stretch of the road. To ensure motorists obey the new speed limit, Chernushenko said he will be placing a speed display board on the bridge. Once Lansdowne Park completes its construction in the fall, and all northbound lanes along the bridge are reopened, Chernushenko said the “super sharrows” will be placed along that 9%!23 curbside lane too.

Emerson insists on proper burial for animals

L

ifestyle - Emerson was having no part of it! Ronny and Terry had come from Montreal for their usual long summer holidays, and Ronny, just as aggressive as Emerson, insisted he was quite capable of playing a leading role in burying the dead bird. Emerson was high on burying anything that had died on the farm, and hav-

else that roamed the large acreage that was our farm at Northcote. He was known to drag a dead groundhog a half mile to give it a proper service. Now, the service usually included us five children standing, (although my sister Audrey, the oldest was getting less and less enamoured with the whole idea) around in solemn wonder as Emerson said a few words, put the deceased in a shallow hole, covered it up, stuck a twig in the mound, and then we were supposed to stand and meditate for at least a full three minutes, which Emerson measured off by counting backwards. That Saturday the dead bird was discovered in the barn yard, and Emerson

didn’t take long to announce that we should all gather behind the silo as soon as we finished our breakfast. Ronny said he would be glad to help with the service. Emerson said that wouldn’t be necessary, he had the service down pat. Well, Mother wasn’t letting any of us away from the house until the kitchen had been redded up, and that included Emerson pitching in. We all had our special chores, and nothing interfered with Mother’s routine, dead bird, or no dead bird. Ronny was to take the table scraps out to the back stoop for our old Collie dog Sport, who, like the rest of us, was well aware of our meal-time routine, and was already sitting on the bottom step waiting for whatever morsel was coming his way. As Ronny was heading out the door, Emerson hollered, “We’ll meet at the silo in five minutes.” Finally the red and white oilcloth covered table was wiped clean, the dishes washed, dried and put away,

and the floor swept. We all headed for the back door. Audrey couldn’t be coaxed out of the kitchen. “Nonsense...just plain nonsense,” she could be heard muttering. Everything could have been happening in another country as far as Mother was concerned. As long as our chores were done to her liking, she was happy! Emerson always wore his cap at these ceremonies. I thought that strange since you wouldn’t dare wear a cap in church, and this was supposed to be as close to a church service as you could get without actually going to church. He also took the battered hymn book with him. He would have loved to take the bible which sat in the parlour on the twig table, but Mother drew the line on that! No bible left the house to bury a dead bird. Ronny was already at the site. And it didn’t take a university graduate to figure out what he had done. There

was a soft mound of dirt, and a stick at one end of it, and there stood Ronny standing in solemn wonder with his hands folded in steeple position and his eyes closed. Ronny had buried the bird. Well, Emerson lost all sense of piety, lunged at Ronny, dropped the hymn book, and was about to tear into him when Everett and Earl got a good hold of him and held him back. Ronny had the good sense to head for the house where he knew Mother would never let Emerson lay a hand on him. The rest of us stood around the little mound. I have no idea when he did it, but Ronny had taken a scrap of paper, woven it through the twig at the head of the make-shift grave, and printed in black red crayon, “Goodbye Bird.” Interested in an electronic version of Mary’s books?

Meringue ice cream pots a treat

R0012732767_0605

Lifestyle - With each bite, indulge in the burst of luscious ripe Ontario strawberries, crisp meringue and creamy ice cream. Enjoy this cool dessert on a hot summer evening with friends and family. Preparation Time: 10 minutes Cooking Time: 18 minutes Chilling Time: 30 minutes to two days Serves: 4 INGREDIENTS

• 500 ml (2 cups) quartered strawberries • 125 ml (1/2 cup) granulated sugar • 750 ml (3 cups) vanilla ice cream • 2 meringue nests, coarsely chopped (about 1-1/2 cups/375 ml) • 125 ml (1/2 cup) finely chopped dark chocolate • 4 large strawberries • 4 fresh mint leaves PREPARATION INSTRUCTIONS

Place large glass bowl or metal bowl in freezer. In medium saucepan, over medium-high heat, combine quartered strawberries and sugar, cook stirring until sug-

ar starts to dissolve and juice begins to release, about three minutes. Reduce heat to medium; simmer for 15 minutes or until strawberries can be crushed easily with back of spoon. Transfer to shallow heatproof dish; refrigerate for 30 minutes or until cool. (Sauce can be made two days in advance and refrigerated.) Remove bowl from freezer; add ice cream. Working quickly, coarsely break up ice cream. Add meringue, chocolate and 1/2 cup (125 mL) of the straw-

berry sauce; lightly combine ingredients. Scoop one-quarter of the ice cream mixture (approx 1 cup/250 mL) into each bowl; top each with 1 tbsp (15 mL) remaining strawberry sauce. Garnish with whole strawberry and mint leaf. Serve immediately. Tip: For a make-ahead idea use Mason jars, seal with the lid and store in the freezer. Simply top with a little strawberry sauce and serve on a moment’s notice. - Foodland Ontario

News - I must have resembled the cat that swallowed the canary – 2,000 feet in the air over the Gatineau Hills and I was flying; actually directing a single-engine aircraft up and down, left and right. It was exhilarating. I’m almost positive my grin was big enough to split my face in two. Never in my wildest dreams did I think I would have the opportunity to get my hands on the controls of a plane. That’s one of the reasons Alfio Ferrara – and a number of other local pilots – continues to volunteer his time to organize and take part in a Young Eagles event that gives youth a chance to get up in an airplane – free of charge. “It’s fun for us to see the smiles and hear some of the comments,” said Ferrara. “It’s something they’ll remember for a long time.” I can attest to that. I don’t think I’ll ever for-

get how amazing it felt to be flying over The Point in Constance Bay or circling over the village of Carp, looking at the places I’ve seen a hundred times from ground level but never from above.

It’s fun for us to see the smiles and hear some of the comments. It’s something they’ll remember for a long time. ALFIO FERRARA

It was magical. PROVIDING OPPORTUNITIES

Ferrara, a member of the Experimental Aircraft Association’s chapter 245 out of the Carp Airport who works in Kanata’s high-tech sector, has always liked airplanes.

As a boy, he would construct models – which would eventually turn into building the real thing – or he would head out to the airport with his father to watch the aircraft take off and land. They are fond memories, and helped Ferrara foster a love of flying. He now pilots a RV9A, home-built, two-seater airplane he constructed with his wife, Shirley Mackey. “I’ve always liked it,” he said about flying and the aircraft that make flight possible. Nowadays though, people often don’t have the same opportunities, as regulations and rules around airports have become stricter. “I don’t think kids have the same exposure,” Ferrara said. Airports have become more commercial, just a place to wait between point A and point B. Loitering by those who don’t have a plane to catch is often discouraged or even illegal. See PILOTS, page 69

Pilots volunteer for free youth event June 14 Continued from page 68

So in 2011, the Stittsville resident organized the first Young Eagles event. It’s intended for youth between the ages of eight and 17; to give them the opportunity to experience some of the same magic Ferrara felt as a young boy. This year’s event will take place Saturday, June 14, (with a rain date of Sunday, June 15) from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. at the Carp Airport. So far, five pilots have confirmed their participation and Ferrara is hoping a number of others will sign up for the event. Young attendees receive a background lesson before getting into the planes, which includes how to use the in-craft microphone and headsets, as

well as a flight log book, a voucher to take the online Learn to Fly Course for free and the chance to win full flight training.

It’s basically an introductory flight of about 10 to 15 minutes. We sometimes let them hold the controls. It’s amazing how well some of them do because they play video games. ALFEO FERRARA

Last year, he flew a young girl over her house in Dunrobin during her turn in the plane. “When we got back, she told her parents she knew what she wanted for Christmas,” he said, laughing.

And flying doesn’t have to be an expensive recreational activity, Ferrara said, adding there are many opportunities for youth to get involved through the Young Eagles program. To register for the June 14 event, email Ferrara at young. eagles@eaa245.org. A reception with snacks, as well as a chance for hands-on airplane construction, will take place after the flights. More information can be found on the EAA chapter 245’s Facebook page at facebook. com/EAA245 or on the webpage at www.245.eaachapter. org. “We’re people from all walks of life with a passion for aircraft,” said Ferrara. And they’re helping to spread the magic, one flight at a time.

DEALS YOU LOVE

Hydro Ottawa will provide a rare glimpse inside Canada’s oldest operating run-ofthe-river hydroelectric generating station on June 7th and 8th.

FOR LESS

Last year, more than 1,400 people toured Hydro Ottawa’s hydroelectric Generating Station No. 2 at Chaudière Falls as part of Doors Open Ottawa. Brought to the community by the City of Ottawa, Doors Open Ottawa is city’s largest heritage and architectural event, giving visitors the opportunity to explore the inside of some of Ottawa’s most prestigious buildings and facilities. “Chaudière Falls is in the heart of Canada’s National Capital and has great historical significance,” said Bryce Conrad, President and CEO of Hydro Ottawa. “It fueled the industrial explosion of the mid 1800s by providing the water power for the vast complex of lumber mills that generated electricity that drove railroads and factories in the area after 1885.” Hydro Ottawa owns and operates six run-of-the-river hydroelectric facilities, located along the Ottawa River adjacent to Chaudière Falls, the birth place of Ottawa’s rich logging history. Less than 1.5 kilometres away from Parliament Hill in Ottawa’s downtown core, these facilities produce more than 270,000 megawatt hours of power each year, making Hydro Ottawa the largest municipallyowned producer of green power in eastern Ontario. Generating Station No. 2, commissioned by E.H. Bronson in 1891 during the lumber boom, is a heritagedesignated building and Canada’s oldest surviving hydroelectric facility still in operation.

“It’s a unique opportunity to share the history of this site with the community,” said Conrad. “Not only do visitors get to tour this historic building, but they also learn how hydroelectricity is produced.”

During the two-day event, visitors will get the chance to explore the historicallysignificant facility between 10 am to 4 pm, learn about electricity safety and conservation from on-site experts, and inspect the company’s electric-powered Chevy Volt. There will be an on-site BBQ and bucket truck rides in support of Hydro Ottawa’s United Way campaign.

Entrepreneur Week Giant Tiger’s business philosophy focuses on customer satisfaction, community involvement President says company’s model is one for entrepreneurs to emulate Staff

Community - Since the first Giant Tiger store opened its doors in Ottawa’s ByWard Market in 1961, every step taken has been done with the customer in mind, the company’s president says. By the end of August this year, the company will have 207 stores in communities across Canada, including six new stores. “Our goal is certainly to add store count and continue to grow because we think there’s a lot of markets yet that we’re not in that we think we should be in,” said Greg Farrell, Giant Tiger president and chief operating officer, adding the company regularly receives feedback from customers who would like to see Giant Tiger stores open in their cities. For that reason, Giant Tiger’s business model is one that entrepreneurs can learn from when it comes to achieving success in delivering outstanding customer service and creating an ideal working environment for employees. A key feature of the privately held Canadian company’s business model is profit sharing for the more than 2,000 employees, including at warehouses, franchise stores, the trucking division and home office, which is located at 2480 Walkley Rd. in Ottawa. It encourages those within the Giant Tiger family to work harder and longer for the customers they serve, said Farrell. “Everyone contributes to the success, and everyone, thereby, should share in the success,” he added. That success is reliant on delivering quality products, from fashion and groceries to everyday supplies, at low prices to customers. “Everything is about reducing the cost to get the product onto the shelf and into the customers’ hands. That’s number

one and number two we will never be beat on price,” said Farrell. Giant Tiger’s customers appreciate the company’s many guarantees from providing rainchecks and accepting coupons to offering a satisfaction guarantee, a no-hassle refund policy, which includes no time limits on refunds, as well as price clawbacks and an ad-match guarantee. “The customer has to trust us that we have the best price,” Farrell said. Giant Tiger stores also offer convenience by offering friendly store layouts and accessible parking. The company also strives to deliver affordable fashions for the entire family. “We will match Target’s quality and style but beat them on price,” said Farrell, a Stittsville resident. “We will match Walmart’s price, but beat them on style.” Given the highly completive retail industry, the company’s management team and franchise store owners have built a solid name in a highpressure industry. “It’s all about trying to give confidence to our customer,” Farrell said. His advice to up-and-coming entrepreneurs also includes being clear on your competitive advantage and differentiating your business in the marketplace. “You also have to be willing and able to change and innovate,” he said, adding that the company also maintains its edge by keeping a close watch on competitors. Giant Tiger is also proudly Canadian. Today, there are fewer Canadian companies in the rapidly changing retail sector. “There’s a lot that have gone by the wayside, a couple of regional players that are in bankruptcy protection,” said Farrell. The company also prides itself in giving back to communities. “We have three brand pillars as to how we run our business, and one of them is being connected to our communities, and we think that’s really important,” he said, adding that the ways the company helps range from providing for families in need to supporting local hospital foundations and food banks. Each year, the company donates more than $2 million

Greg Farrell, president and chief operating officer of Giant Tiger Stores Ltd., says the privately held Canadian company’s business model is one that entrepreneurs can find success in emulating.

Giant Tiger Stores remain committed to serving the community, not only by delivering quality products for low prices to consumers, but also by supporting charitable causes. Giant Tiger president and Stittsville resident Greg Farrell was the first to purchase a hat in support of the company’s support for the Soldier On Afghanistan Relay team, which travelled from Trenton, Ont. to Parliament Hill in early May. to charities and organizations across the country. Most recently, eight stores organized free barbecues during the Soldier On Afghanistan Relay in early May that saw wounded personnel travel from Trenton,

sleeves and they’re very visible, doing what needed to be done to make a difference, in order to make their communities stronger,” said Alison Scarlett, Giant Tiger manager of public relations and community activation.

“Giving back is not just something we do, at Giant Tiger it is who we are.” For additional information on Giant Tiger, please go online to gianttiger.com, and visit them on Facebook and Twitter.

News - (NC) - Pay it Forward initiatives are popular across Canada. They are successful because they benefit both those who give and those who receive. “The Canadian Youth Business Foundation has its own unique Pay It Forward movement,” says CYBF Mentor in Residence, Linda Morana. “Every day, thousands of business mentors nurture and support the fantastic ideas and energy of Canada’s young entrepreneurs. This is great for the entrepreneurs, but mentors get so much out of it too.” CRITICAL

CYBF research finds that a solid mentoring relationship is critical to the success of nearly every business startup. Research shows that 88 per cent of entrepreneurs who have mentors survive in business, compared with only 50 per cent of those who do not. Many successful young entrepreneurs cite “quality, meaningful mentorship” as a driving force for their businesses. Mentoring increases their confidence, risk-taking and vital skills development. By paying it forward, you will also build a culture in Canada that supports entrepreneurship – and that’s good for business and good for the country. More information is available online at www.cybf.ca/mentoring.

ADVERTORIAL

Keeping it all in the family for the sake of customers Brian Turner

News - Ottawa, from a automotive shopper’s perspective is blessed with a retailer per capita rate that is one of the highest in North America with 65 manufacturers’ dealerships, all operating with solid financial footing under professional customerfocused management. The number of dealers has doubled since 1971. Auto retailer ownership here has undergone its own version of restructuring and the results are providing more security for car owners as well as increased selection and a more competitive market. A great example of how family involvement can improve client satisfaction and long term viability can be found under the Myers nameplate. The name Myers first became associated with automotive retailing and service in Ottawa in 1942. At the time Gordon Myers established Myers Motors as the successor to Ottawa’s first General Motors dealership. After thriving through a series of dedicated owners, Hank Mews, the current

president, took over in 1975. Hank Mews joined Myers in February, 1971, as general manager. He was born and grew up in St. John’s Newfoundland and after graduating from high school, his first job was as a salesperson with a Ford dealership in St. John’s. BASELINE AND MERIVALE

From there, being uncertain about what career path to follow, Hank moved to mainland Canada and over the next few years he tried his hand as a commercial pilot, as a life insurance salesperson and finally as a representative in a Toronto Advertising Agency. Hank piloted Myers Chev-Olds Cadillac at the corner of Baseline and Merivale by himself until sons Harry and Robert joined

22 O lé N EMC Th d J 5 2014 78 Kanata Kourier-Standard EMC - Thursday, June 5, 2014

the organization in the early 1990’s. They have held various management roles along the way and today are partners with Hank in all of the dealerships. They and their customers alike have benefited from examples lived and lessons passed down from their father. In the showroom, at the home dining table, or at the cottage, Harry and Robert were constantly exposed to Hank’s drive for success and his instruction. They have carried on Hank’s philosophy of providing superior customer satisfaction and the vision is to continue to evaluate opportunities for future growth. From early on, Hank Mews and his family realized that long term success would be dependent on providing outstanding customer service. They dedicated

much of their financial and human resources to building a reputation, one client at a time, of being competent, caring, and trustworthy. As a result, in a very competitive marketplace, Myers grew, their parts, service and collision repair departments flourished, and they quickly became recognized as one of General Motors’ top Canadian dealerships. They also learned that customers are most comfortable and loyal when dealing with a neighbourhood retailer that supports the community in an active partnership model. To serve the growing demand for local quality car retailers in growing outlying areas of the city, the Mews family opened Mews Chevrolet in Orleans in 1992. They quickly became a driving force in the burgeoning

Eastern city with a fastgrowing customer base and extended service hour’s right from the start. MOVING WEST

They moved west in 2003 by purchasing Elliott Chevrolet in Bell’s Corners and relaunching it as Chevy West. In 2005 they partnered with Keith Bean and amalgamated 2 great GM stores in Brockville into a gleaming 4-line GM store. They expanded outside the GM family with the addition of Myers Hyundai in 2008 in Ottawa West quickly earning Hyundai Canada’s top President’s Award of Merit for superior customer satisfaction ratings. Myers Volkswagen in Kanata, Myers Kanata Hyundai, Myers Orleans Nissan followed as

did their newest member of the dealership family; Myers Kemptville Chevrolet Buick GMC. Each store is guided by an experienced and dedicated team of professionals, all committed to Hank Mew’s philosophy of providing an exceptional experience to every customer whether they’re buying a $39 oil change service or a $75,000 luxury sedan. No one rests on the laurels of past successes or gets any slack because they’re family. Each store, every manager and department head, all of the friendly staff answers to their customers and in this way they are responsive and proactive to the specific and unique needs of the areas they represent. They are proud to serve and be part of their Ottawa and Eastern Ontario neighbourhoods. Every year, the Myers Automotive Group gives back generously through donations to youth development groups, local hospitals, and the United Way. With family leadership like this, it’s easy to understand why the auto retail industry in our region is the cream of the crop.
