West Ottawa chambers to merge in November New organization to have West Ottawa chair, Greater Nepean vice-chair Adam Kveton

adam.kveton@metroland.com

News - The amalgamation of the West Ottawa Board of Trade and the Greater Nepean Chamber of Commerce is planned for Nov. 1 after the Oct. 1 finish date was pushed

back.

The extra month is not due to difficulties with negotiations, said the West Ottawa board’s executive director, Rosemary Leu. “We are in a good spot,” she said. “Just in order to make sure we have all our ducks in a row

and all our legal paperwork and everything done and all our due-diligence, it’s just taking a few more weeks, so our target right now is Nov. 1.”

The West Ottawa board announced the new timeline for the amalgamation at its annual general meeting on Sept. 30.

Due to the extra month, the West Ottawa board membership had to ratify a motion to keep 12 of their 14 directors on until the amalgamation.

“They will continue in their current role, but of those 12, once we hit the amalgamation date and we sign and file those papers, four of those 12 will be stepping down, and eight will go onto the board of the new organization,” said Leu. The new organization, which will retain the West Ottawa Board of Trade name, will have a 15 member board of directors, with seven coming from the Greater Nepean Chamber of Commerce’s current directors, she said.

Kanata North candidates debate the issues Adam Kveton

adam.kveton@metroland.com

News - Kanata North’s incumbent candidate, Marianne Wilkinson, is insulting the community’s intelligence by stealing fellow candidate Matt Muirhead’s platform ideas, said Muirhead during an all candidates meeting.

The jabs started early during the councillor candidate portion of the meeting on Oct. 3, with Muirhead styling himself as an ideas guy.

“I have so many great ideas that Marianne Wilkinson has started taking them,” he said during his opening remarks.

That was in reference to his advocacy of weekly garbage pick-up in summer months, at least until the green bin program is fixed.

“I try to be a tough guy, but I’m not so tough about maggots,” he said about the green bin program.

Wilkinson denied that she was taking Muirhead’s ideas, saying she had been mulling over the weekly pick-up for the summer

Kanata North councillor incumbent Marianne Wilkinson addresses the almost 100 attendees of the Kanata Beaverbrook Community Association’s all candidates meeting at Kanata United Church on Oct. 3 as fellow candidates, from left, Matt Muirhead and Jeff Seeton look on. idea since winter.

Kanata North’s three councillor candidates tackled the issues along with four nominees for

mayor in Beaverbrook at an allcandidates meeting on Oct. 3.

Some of the major themes of the night for Kanata North can-

didates Jeff Seeton, Muirhead and Wilkinson included garbage pick-up solutions, light rail transit and reducing city hall’s tax dollar consumption.

Candidates were asked questions by the crowd of nearly 100 people gathered at Kanata United Church, in addition to giving opening and closing remarks.

Wilkinson had recently publicized her support for weekly summer garbage pick-up, though she said that she had been discussing the idea with her staff since winter, and that Muirhead couldn’t possibly know that.

“I’ll forgive him for that,” she said.

Wilkinson’s answer came after a question on whether or not candidates would advocate banning the sale of cats, dogs and rabbits by retailers. Muirhead re-directed the question after answering that he would support such a ban.

He added that dog poop should also go in the green bin, if plastic bags were allowed to be used another part of his platform.

Board chair to step down Continued from page 1

The agreement, to be ratified by members of both groups, is to have the chair of the new organization be chosen from among the current West Ottawa board’s directors, chosen by the amalgamated board of directors. The vice-chair would be elected from among the Greater Nepean chamber’s directors, said Leu. The West Ottawa board’s current chair, Rick Chase, announced he will step down from his post at the annual general meeting, after 10 years of involvement with the organization. “I’ve got a little bit of a heavy heart,” he said.

“I’m not leaving the organization but I think we’ve accomplished a lot this year.

“We’ve accomplished a lot in terms of advocacy, we’ve accomplished a lot in terms of value for our membership, we’ve accomplished a lot in terms of the education that we can provide our members,” he said, citing the organization’s rebranding last year, and the upcoming amalgamation.

“I won’t leave the role (as chair) until we do come through with the merger,” he said.

The amalgamation negotiations have been going smoothly, said Leu. “We’ve got a pretty likeminded board,” she said, adding that the only real challenge was figuring out how to whittle down both boards into a single board. Many of the potential pitfalls involved in the merger had already been

thought through by a task force made up of members from both groups that has been meeting since January.

The idea to merge both organizations came up late last year, and after voting to take the question to members on May 20, both memberships voted overwhelmingly in favour of the amalgamation in June. “(The Nov. 1 date) is not set in stone, but we are, at this point, not seeing any reasons why (the amalgamation) won’t happen by then,” said Leu. The West Ottawa board and Nepean chamber represent the businesses that make up their membership, lobby government on their behalf, set up events, promote networking and support local businesses.

Eight board members in total, including Chase, will step down, Leu said at the group’s annual general meeting on Sept. 30

Wilkinson and Seeton said they support incumbent Jim Watson, while Muirhead said he would work with anyone who would support his bid to bring LRT to Kanata before 2048. Muirhead said Kanata is being ignored in favour of Orléans, which needs the rail to boost its economy, he said, meaning Kanata is losing out because its economy is stronger.

Wilkinson addressed light rail in her opening remarks, saying that she doesn’t agree with Orléans getting service first, but that she pushed for rail plans to extend the west line right to Canadian Tire Place. The plan had been for the rail to end at Lincoln Fields Station, she said.

She also touted the planned rapid transit bus system which will run from Bayshore Station to Terry Fox Station, with construction beginning next year.

Seeton said he had concerns about Kanata getting light rail at all, as provincial funding has not been secured for the third phase of the implementation, he said.

Mayoral candidates also weighed in on the issue, with Mike Maguire pushing his platform to stop spending on LRT and put rail on existing track in the city. “We even own the trains,” he said.

Incumbent mayoral candidate Jim Watson did not attend the event.

Questions over taxes and city spending were put to both councillor and mayoral candidates. Mayoral candidate Robert White had perhaps the most straightforward solution. He said one of the first things he would do if elected mayor would be to fire the city’s highest paid bureaucrat, city manager Kent Kirkpatrick. White said the firings would continue after forensic audits into all city departments.

Another person asked if mayoral candidates would support Ottawa purchasing hydro from Quebec as a cheaper solution. White spoke out in support, saying

Hydro Ottawa is controlled by the Liberal provincial government that, “want to tax us, they want to profit from us,” adding that, “they are greedy and they are the one per cent.”

Maguire also said he would support that plan, saying he has already spoken with Quebec Hydro, which said it would be happy to take Ottawa on as a customer. “Nobody can afford (Hydro Ottawa rates) anymore,” he said.

Mayoral candidate Anwar Syed said he would lower Hydro Ottawa rates by pushing for smaller profit margins.

When it came to saving money at city hall, Wilkinson said a lot is already being done to run the city with fewer people while implementing time-saving technology. She said that some of the city’s biggest salary expenditures come from protective services like police and firefighters.

Seeton said he would find savings by stopping city-run employment services as the province already provides those services. He added that he would work to have councillor and senior management salaries frozen.

Muirhead he would help save money by reading city con-

tracts more closely before they are signed, push for greater managerial accountability and seek to keep taxes from rising.

“Don’t cut our services and raise our taxes every year and not expect us to rise up,” said Muirhead.

Councillor candidates finished off the night with closing remarks. Seeton said this is his fourth time running for council, and that he has a long-term plan for Kanata North, including bringing LRT to the ward and freezing taxes.

Muirhead listed off the public figures who have endorsed him, lamented the city planning process and referred to the campaign ideas he said Wilkinson copied from his platform.

Wilkinson finished off by saying she doesn’t promise things she knows can’t happen as other candidates do, pointed to her record of accomplishments at city hall and her experience.

When someone asked why Wilkinson chose to run again despite saying she wouldn’t last election, she said retirement is always a personal choice, and that, if people don’t like that she is running again, then they don’t have to vote for her.

Programs back at Kanata-area equestrian park Adam Kveton adam.kveton@metroland.com

News - Riders are back in the saddle at the former Nepean national equestrian park, where the Wesley Clover Foundation has taken over and committed to pumping $30 million into the site.

The park, located north of Corkstown Road on NCC land, had been leased by the city for years, but with the park’s infrastructure crumbling and major horse shows pulling out of the venue, the city looked to pull out of the site in late 2012.

With five groups interested in leasing the property, the Wesley Clover Founda-

tion earned a short-term lease from the NCC in March of 2013, and now has two 25year leases for the park, said Wesley Clover Parks’ executive director, Karen Sparks.

After investing about $1 million in the park so far including making the horse stables, arena and office building useable again and kicking out the raccoons that had taken up residence for the three months that the park had no caretaker - horse lessons returned last April.

While the equestrian portion of the site will remain the primary focus, camping, hiking, soccer, winter sports and community events are all planned for the area, with

some underway now, said Sparks.

Currently, the park’s Ian Millar School of Horsemanship (named after the Canadian Olympic equestrian) is tracking to have 100 participants by the end of the year, said Sparks, with 15 horses on-site.

Since Wesley Clover took over, the park has hosted seven horse shows, as well as eight runs through the existing trail system, with plans to connect to trails to the Trans Canada Trail network, said Sparks.

The existing 80 hectare, 148-site campground was also running this year, though little had to be done on that end, she said. A forest school has also been established in the park, offering pre-school programming with students spending 50 per cent or more of their time outdoors.

The school, run by Marlene Power who started the forest school concept, is expected to be the hub for forest schools in Canada, with educators having taken part in an on-site seminar in September.

Six soccer fields are planned to be ready for 2016, located on the east side of the property near Moodie Drive. The West Ottawa Soc-

FOR

cer Club, the Ottawa Royals Soccer Club and the Ottawa Sports and Social Club are expected to rent the fields and deal with booking, said Sparks.

The park is also working with the Kanata Nordic Club, which will be doing some cross country ski trail grooming this winter, said Sparks, with a plan to have the park as the club’s main base of operations.

The foundation expects to make many more infrastructure improvements, including more parking, a covered stand area by the grand prix ring, and expanding the property’s pond into a lake for skating in the winter.

“I think there will be major pieces (built) for the next seven years,” said Sparks.

The foundation committed to spending $30 million over the 25-year lease, but much of that will be spent in the first portion of the lease, she said, adding that work will be spread out so that areas of the park can continue to be used.

The endeavour is also completely philanthropic, said Sparks, as the foundation’s lease states that all revenue from the park goes back into the property.

The foundation was inter-

ing around it is even regional quality, so it was just sad to see something that could be really great and a beautiful property right in the heart of the city being something that we can’t really be proud of,” she said.

Sparks, and equestrian herself and daughter of Terry Matthews, the founder of Wesley Clover International, pushed for the foundation’s lease proposal.

“I knew that this could be a real jewel,” she said, “and it (wasn’t being) used to its potential.”

Upcoming events at the park include: • a fall festival on Oct. 18 and 19 with a hay maze and more.

• a horsemanship class with team Millar on Oct. 25 and 26.

• a national level horse show from June 17-21 of 2015.

Re: “Sex offender supports on a shoestring,” Kourier-Standard, Sept. 25.

With interest, I read this article.

It is absolutely appalling and disturbing that this government will cut off funding to a rehabilitation program (Circles of Support) that has reduced reoffending by high-risk sex offenders by more than 80 percent following their release from prison.

But this same government will proceed with a sex-offender registry.

The U.S. has had these registries for years.

Research in that country shows that these registries are not effective in protecting the public, but actually put the public at greater risk.

The problem with sex registries/databases.

Not only are sex-offender registries notoriously incomplete but they are also misguided laws that cast far too wide a net, in the process preventing authorities from dealing with the really big problem at hand, that is, sexual abuse against children.

Concerns have also been expressed that these laws focus on a relatively small number of high-risk offenders, in the process excluding the many “medium-risk” offenders who also pose a significant risk to children.

These laws are not evidence-based policy, but rather reactions to high-profile crimes against children.

By focusing on a small number of offenders, these laws may detract attention from more

Lifetime Achievement Award

SO

To the editor,

common crimes such as intra-familial abuse, leaving parents and children more vulnerable to abuse from people known to them; there is also evidence that victims of intra-familial abuse may be deterred from reporting crimes because of fears related to community notification.

The law of unintended consequences!

With these laws there is very little monitoring of vigilantism against offenders, and although there have been few known incidents of harassment, it is likely that these crimes are under-reported and under-recorded.

The question must be asked: are sex-offender registries, with all their limitations, worth the costs of their very expensive monitoring and cumbersome enforcement requirements?

More often than not, many laws are driven by hype, emotion and political expediency rather than sound empirical evidence.

Sex-offender registry laws which are certainly not evidence-based may very well fit into this category.

They are a classic case of “feel good legislation” which makes people feel safer without delivering tangible safety benefits.

Protecting children from all forms of abuse must become a greater societal priority. Child protection laws – those already on the books –must be promoted, given adequate resources, both from a financial and human resources point of view, and enforced.

It is scary and unthinkable to consider the consequences of failing to deal with child abuse when this, in the grand scheme of things, continues to be a low national priority.

This challenge resides with the Harper government. Is it up to it?

More jails not the answer

B

usiness is booming in Ontario jails, but it’s the kind of expansion nobody wants.

This week, we published the final instalment of our four-part series about recidivism – when previously convicted criminals reoffend - in Ontario and the state of our correctional system.

The numbers tell a disturbing tale. We discovered an odd statistical trend: despite the fact that Canada’s crime rate has been steadily declining over the past decade – this year we’re at a level not seen since 1969 – the number of federally incarcerated offenders hit a record high in 2013. Overcrowding is the new reality in Canadian prisons, with double-bunking prisoners required in 20 per cent of all federal prison cells. Also on the upswing is the rising cost of Canada’s prison system: the annual price per offender is $200,000 for females and $117,000 for males in federal penitentiaries.

Meanwhile, the cost of community supervision of offenders hovers around $35,000 per year. Critics of the federal government say we are following the failed example of the United States that started

during the 1980s, with a massive push for prison construction and tougher sentences.

Three decades later, our southern neighbours, a country with 700 of every 100,000 people incarcerated, are reconsidering their strategy and are now starting to spend more tax dollars on rehabilitation and support programs instead of prison construction.

We need to follow their example.

With so many critics – both academic and political – calling into question the federal government’s tough-on-crime approach, with the introduction of mandatory minimums and stiffer sentences, what is the government’s rationale for its push for prison construction?

During the past two months we repeatedly called and emailed the office of Steven Blaney, the federal minister for Public Safety, with no response.

If the Conservatives insist on pushing forward with an irrational correctional strategy, one that will eventually cost us dearly financially, perhaps the only convincing argument must be delivered at the ballot box.

wants to carry back to the city. Still, they approach the weekend with a certain wariness.

They take this wariness to the Weather Network, early, checking the monthly forecast, then the 14-day forecast, then the weekly, hoping for numbers in the double digits but fearing the single. Somewhere in the back of their minds might be the perverse thought that a snowstorm or freezing rain in the forecast might enable the trip to be cancelled.

Then the weekend could be spent in urban warmth and the cottage would somehow close itself.

This isn’t going to happen because even if cold weather looms there are others in the family who welcome it – it will mean the colour of the leaves will be that much nicer and DISTRIBUTION INQUIRIES 'RAHAM "RAGGER ADMINISTRATION: $ONNA 4HERIEN DISPLAY ADVERTISING: 'ISELE 'ODIN +ANATA $AVE 0ENNETT /TTAWA 7EST 3HARON (OLDEN /RLEANS #INDY 'ILBERT /TTAWA 3OUTH 'EOFF (AMILTON /TTAWA %AST 6ALERIE 2OCHON "ARRHAVEN *ILL -ARTIN .EPEAN -IKE 3TOODLEY 3TITTSVILLE *ANINE +IVELL /TTAWA 7EST 2ICO #ORSI !UTOMOTIVE #ONSULTANT 'REG 3TIMPSON !UTOMOTIVE #ONSULTANT

the chill of the air will be offset by the warmth of the fireplace, not to mention the warmth of family ties.

Besides, we do it every year. This is perhaps the most compelling reason we do a lot of things – because we always do them. It doesn’t make a lot of sense when you think about it, but without the force of its dubious logic society might crumble.

What if Grade 3 was optional?

What if baseball season started at a different time each year? What if hockey games had two periods instead of three some days? What if some pianos had 87 keys? What if the alphabet started in the middle occasionally?

Chaos, right? So, it follows that you have no choice but to wrap yourselves as warmly as possible and head down the highway, hoping against hope that one of those weird systems will blow in from the west or the south and allow you to spend

the weekend without once putting the parka on.

Heaven knows, it has happened before. Or at least someone says it has. And when it happens this time, all those people who stayed in the city will be sorry. Yup.

The nuanced feminist

L

ast month British actor Emma Watson delivered a profound speech to the United Nations as part of the HeforShe campaign.

In it she pushed for all – men and women, alike – to do more to promote and practice gender equality. It was moving and tear-inducing, and best of all, it was a call to action that touched people on a number of levels. The video went viral on social media.

The next day a threat to release nude photos of the actress also went viral, apparently to attempt to discredit her as a feminist because, you know, she may have used her body as a sexual marketing tool in the past. The threat turned out to be a hoax, but the damage was done.

Fast forward a few weeks and Chanel’s 81-year-old creative director Karl Lagerfeld shocked audiences in Paris, with a grand runway finale designed to resemble a feminist protest. He got slammed for attempting to capitalize on the popularity of feminism to sell dresses modelled by thin, mostly white models carrying placards.

Since Lagerfeld also happens to be a guy who called British pop singer Adele fat one time, he’s been labelled a hypocrite on a number of levels.

What’s disturbing about people critiquing and defending on all sides is that it gives the impression that feminism is single-faceted. The threat to Watson could only be seen as offensive if one believes nude pictures are anti-feminist. The criticism of Lagerfeld suggests that old, white men who sell dresses can’t be feminists unless they embrace every aspect of the cause.

All of it has annoyed me on a very personal level.

The thing is I am a feminist, in that I believe in gender equality. But I’m not a perfect one, not by a long shot.

Over the last nine years as a family lifestyle columnist, I’ve used my soapbox to rant about a lot of things. I’ve written about childcare policies and breastfeeding.

I’ve even weighed into the abortion debate once or twice.

On some issues, I have maintained my R0012872208

BRYNNA LESLIE Capital Muse opinions – for example, that women should not feel pressured to breastfeed and that formula as a valid choice for women feeding infants.

On others, I have completely changed my mind.

Seven years ago I believed with all my being that universal childcare was neither economically feasible nor desirable. Today, I believe the opposite, that universally accessible and subsidized childcare is the only way to give mothers a real choice to participate in the paid workforce or not.

On abortion, my Christian values and my experience as a mother who has borne three children clash with the apparently feminist ideal – that carte blanche support for abortion is a foregone conclusion.

“There are many different ways that people practice feminism,” artist and feminist Kim Katrin Milan told CBC Radio’s The Current in early October.

She then went onto slam Lagerfeld’s faux feminist protest.

Essentially, said Milan, It’s not okay for Lagerfeld promote feminism because, in Milan’s opinion, he represents an industry run by men that tells women how to present their bodies to the world.

Okay, but that just makes it impossible for Lagerfeld to be a feminist. And maybe it makes it impossible for anyone wearing Chanel to be a real feminist.

And yet, aren’t we trying to get these old white guys and young girls into the cause?

Canadian feminist Judy Rebick, who was quoted on the same episode of The Current kind of affirmed the latter point.

“I’ve spent last 20 years trying to explain that feminism means you support equality for women and it had a bad rap for so many years.” By making feminism part of haute couture, Rubick added,

Lagerfeld “makes it cool” and therefore okay for college girls or any man or woman reading a fashion magazine to see that feminism is a mainstream idea rather than some kind of radical fringe movement.

Milan later noted in the same interview that “feminism is about women being able to access all those things we’ve worked our entire lives for.”

That’s true, so maybe it would be good for feminist activists like Milan to give the rest of us a chance to define what it is that we are working for, what gender equality actually looks like, and appreciate our differences of opinion.

The hardest part about an ideology is living up to its ideal. If you want people to be feminists, don’t make it impossible to be a good one.

If we really want to push ahead on gender equality, it’s time to make room for the nuanced feminist.

Kanata South deserves fullterm councillor To the editor:

DK A E R CLIC

I am writing about Coun.

Allan Hubley’s participation in the upcoming Ward 23 (South Kanata) election for municipal councillor.

It was reported in the Ottawa Citizen on Sept. 11, that Hubley “won’t rule out running as a candidate in next year’s federal election” although he is currently campaigning to be re-elected to city council on Oct. 27.

He is quoted as saying, “I put nothing off the table for the future.”

Time and time again, we see career politicians engage in this disrespectful practice of running for office at one level, getting elected to “do a job” and then resigning into their new term to pursue their own priorities and ambitions at another level of government - with taxpayers holding the bag to pay for by-elections.

The term for councillor is 48 months - not eight to 12 months. I think it would be disrespectful to the voters of South Kanata for Mr. Hubley to ask for our support to then turn around in eight to 12 months and ignore our votes.

I call upon Mr. Hubley to

do the right thing and put to rest the rumours about his running for the Conservative nomination in the new Kanata - Carleton riding in the 2015 federal election.

He should state publicly that if re-elected as councillor for Kanata South that he will serve out his full 201419 term of office.

Martin Callsen Bridlewood To the editor,

In my continued appeal for an off-leash dog area in Glen Cairn it seems that the only opposition is the city and the possibility of dog poop left behind by negligent dog owners.

Glen Cairn needs an off-leash dog park I have assured my councillor that we will pick up after our dogs and we will tell those who don’t that they need to do so.

I have also told him that there are hundreds of dogs in Glen Cairn, thousands in Kanata South.

Every other need in Kanata seems to be met except this one thing for dog owners.

I drove to most of the offleash parks in my area (none within walking distance) to

find two are on-leash, all are pathways from one street to another (not safe for dogs chasing balls), none are fenced or locked as required for Glen Cairn by my councillor, none have parking except on nearby side streets and none qualify as more than a “parkette”.

The baseball diamond in Clarence Maheral Park is unused for most of the summer and throughout the spring, fall and winter.

This seems such a waste of the full sized diamond when minor baseball took place maybe six times this summer. That was an increase over previous summers.

I don’t think it is too much to ask to share this diamond.

It is fenced with one ungated opening. Gates can easily be installed. Please consider this option for responsible dog owners.

Laroche Park is off-leash.

There are children and a baseball diamond, partial fencing, I am told, and apparently no problems. In all fairness we should have the same privilege.

Perhaps the upcoming election will lead to a change in council and a change in the city’s position on off-leash dog parks in Glen Cairn.

If six people complain about dog poop, what can thousands of dog owners do to get an off-leash dog area?

Dr. Gretchen Conrad, a clinical psychologist with the Ottawa Hospital, will return to The Oasis in Kanata on Tuesday, Oct. 21, to discuss how caregivers of persons with mental illnesses can look after themselves so they can better cope with their own fears, frustrations, and feelings of isolation and helplessness.

According to Dr. Conrad, “We often experience difficulty managing strong emotions, such as anger, anxiety, sorrow, and fear, which can have an impact on all aspects of our lives, including our self-esteem and sense of self, our ability to cope, and our interpersonal relationships.�

Experts in the mental health field say that, although anger is a fundamental human emotion, the experience can be greatly heightened in persons with certain types of mental illnesses.

They can lack a sense of perspective and easily lose control over their emotions. An innocent comment or unforeseen event can trigger or magnify feelings of confusion, frustration, or fear. This can quickly escalate into outbursts of uncontrolled rage, creating physically and emotionally threatening situations for their caregivers.

Caregivers often feel like they are walking on eggshells, never really sure when the next explosive episode will occur or what will cause it.

Living with the uncertainty and resultant stress for prolonged periods of time, while experiencing the ongoing pressures of advocating for their loved ones within a complex mental health system, can potentially have severe and long-term emotional and physical consequences for their own health.

Dr. Conrad’s presentation will review aspects of recognizing and managing intense and difficult emotions: how to understand, tolerate, and untangle certain types of emotion, communicate feelings, increase positive emotions, and take control over difficult situations.

The session will take place on Oct. 21, starting at 7 p.m. at the Glen Cairn United Church, located at 140 Abbeyhill Dr. Please join us on Tuesday, October 21, at 7 pm, at 140 Abbeyhill Drive, in Kanata. The session is free and registration is not required. All are welcome. For more information, visit the website at www.TheOasisKanata.ca, email info@TheOasisKanata.ca, or call 613-435-1100.

The Oasis in Kanata is a community outreach program of Glen Cairn United Church.

It provides information sessions approximately six times a year on topics of interest to caregivers of persons with mental illness. Looking ahead to the Nov. 17 session, Dr. Mary Marquardt from the Ottawa Hospital’s On Track program, will talk about cognition and psychosis.

For information about the monthly caregiver support group, contact the program manager at OasisManager@ TheOasisKanata.ca.

Glen Cairn illustrator launching children’s Halloween book Adam Kveton

adam.kveton@metroland.com

Arts - Glen Cairn illustrator and now author Jay Lutes is launching his first book, a Halloween tale inspired by his two daughters and their love of chocolate, on Oct. 26. “The Chili Chip Dragon� began as a bedtime story for Lutes’ eldest daughter, fiveyear-old Sera. “I tell her stories every night,� said Lutes, “and (this one) evolved as I told the story.�

The Lutes’ had just celebrated the birth of their

second child, Emma, and the story was meant to give Sera an idea of what it meant to be an older sister. “My oldest daughter is fearless,� he said, but is very set in her ways, so Lutes crafted his story to teach Sera how to help Emma overcome her fears, while also learning to accept and try out new things.

The story begins with Sera and Emma donning their Halloween costumes to go out trick-or-treating, while declaring the only candy they want is chocolate. But, in their travels, they meet a

dragon.

Though Sera assures her sister that the dragon is not real, it turns out it is, and can spit fire by eating chili chips.

While that impresses the girls, Sera still wants her chocolate.

The dragon has none left, but offers chili chips instead.

Though Sera says she is not interested, Emma is willing to try something new, and convinces her older sister.

The story is about not being afraid to try new things, as well as what it means to have a younger sibling, said Lutes.

The story’s book form

!

came out as a bit of a collaboration with Another Chapter Publishing’s founder Roxanne McLaren and Kanata author Jennifer Perlin, said Lutes. The pair encouraged Lutes to include two songs in the book, and came up with the chili chip idea, he said. “I don’t like chili chips myself,� said Lutes. “I’m actually more like Sara, I only want chocolate.�

The story seems to have had at least some effect on Lutes’ children, he said. “After it, my daughter actually wanted to eat chili chips, so she was like, ‘I only eat chili chips now,’� said

Lutes. “So it worked. If only I’d made it vegetables.�

Otherwise, the Lutes girls aren’t too phased by being their father’s inspiration. “They think it’s pretty normal,� he said. “They are like, ‘Oh yeah, that’s a book about me. It’s not a big deal.’�

This is the second book Lutes has worked on, but the first one he has written and illustrated himself. After working on “Konrad, I will find you,� with Perlin, Lutes brought his own story to the table.

The book retains a Canadiana theme through the locations described in the book,

Ottawa group riled up over community mailboxes Adam Kveton

adam.kveton@metroland.com

0904.R0012873375

News - An Ottawa coalition that opposes Canada Post’s decision to replace door-to-door delivery with community mail boxes has officially launched in Glen Cairn.

The Coalition for an Accessible Public Postal Service, made up of about six organizations, including Solidarity Against Austerity, the Association of Community Groups for Reform Now (Acorn), the Congress of Union Retirees of Canada and the Ottawa-Carleton Elementary Teachers Federation , held a town hall meeting at Don Cherry’s Sports Grill in Glen Cairn on Sept. 24.

Coalition members said Canadians have a right to receive their mail in a timely fashion.

“This is for our children and our grandchildren,” said Nadia Willard a member of Acorn. “To take (home delivery) away only allows the government to take more away.”

More than 30 people attended the meeting, including Kanata North Coun.

Marianne Wilkinson and Kanata South candidate David Abuwa.

Kevin Skerrett, one of the organizers with Solidarity Against Austerity, said the coalition is attempting to bring

pressure to bear at the level of municipal government, but ultimately wants to place pressure at all government levels to have the decision to go to community mailboxes reversed.

“We are calling on the federal government to, essentially, reflect the views of Canadians, which is that we don’t like this plan and we don’t want to lose home delivery,” he said. “I’m still convinced that this is overwhelmingly opposed by Canadians.”

Though decisions on the placement of community mailboxes in the first of 11 communities across Ottawa, including Kanata, has already passed and installation has begun, Skerrett said the fight is not over.

“This is, to my mind … a very open question: what is going to happen with this particularly troubling proposal,” he said.

The speakers at the town hall said the change to community mailboxes will physically harm some people, cause undue hardship and is perhaps a scheme to privatize Canada Post.

Speakers at the town hall meeting included Willard, Kanata resident Trevor Haché, and Geoff Bickerton, research director with the Canadian Union of Postal Workers.

Bickerton said Canada Post has lied

18 Kanata Kourier-Standard - Thursday, October 9, 2014

about needing to cut costs to remain profitable.

Abuwa called community mailboxes a human rights issue, as much of the discussion centred on how the elderly and those with disabilities will get to their mail.

Kanata South Coun. Allan Hubley had originally planned to go to the meeting, but said he later decided there was no point in attending, and that he had to deal with construction on Post Road.

He said Canada Post has committed to helping those with mobility problems get their mail, and that there is nothing more the municipality can do to influence Canada Post.

“The deal-breaker for me was that (Canada Post) had to have some sort of a plan to take care of people that could not get to their mailbox legitimately, and they’ve assured us that they have.”

The majority of Kanata South residents are already on a community mailbox system, and it would be difficult to justify keeping door-to-door delivery for the minority, said Hubley.

“That’s the challenge in this whole discussion,” he said.

Wilkinson said she also does not support the coalition’s objective,

Adam Kveton/Metroland

Speakers address dozens who gathered for the Coalition for an Accessible Public Postal Service’s first town hall meeting, held in Glen Cairn on Sept. 24. though Skerrett said the councillor had spoken in favour of the group during the meeting.

“If they can get the rest of the country to keep on having mail delivery in the central city areas where it’s really hard to put in these boxes, more power to them, but right now, we’ve got them here now. I have other things I have to

spend my time on,” she said.

The coalition’s immediate goal is to have city council pass a motion stating the city’s opposition to Canada Post’s decision, as other Canadian communities have.

Both Wilkinson and Hubley said the motion would have no impact, and that they would not support one.

ON OCTOBER 27TH, VOTE FOR CHANGE IN KANATA NORTH.

Matt Muirhead is running for Ottawa City Council to represent Kanata North Dear Friends, Since January 2014, I have met you on your door steps, you have welcomed me in to your homes, you have called me, emailed me and sent Facebook & Twitter messages asking about my ideas for building tomorrow’s Kanata North.

My platform priorities have been outlined both online and in the Kanata Kourier – and these priorities are, I believe, consistent with what many in Kanata North have been calling for from their next City Councillor: - Light Rail to Kanata: I will fight to ensure that Kanata, and the west end, are included in the City of Ottawa’s Light Rail plan; a plan that, currently, leaves Kanata out until after the 2031 funding period (or in City-speak: past the year 2048);

- Weekly garbage pick-up: I’ve consistently said that unless & until the City of Ottawa fixes the green bin program then we should restore weekly garbage pick-up at least in the summer months. No resident of this ward should have to suffer through the smell of rotting garbage or rancid diapers in the hot days of summer. I’m the one candidate in this race who will fight like heck to get weekly garbage pick-up restored until the green bin program is fixed; - Fixing the Green Bin Program: Let’s fix the green bin program by allowing plastic bags and diapers to be included in it – which Orgaworld, the company that processes the waste, have been asking the City of Ottawa to do since 2009. So far, we have lost $8M on this program – and the City’s Auditor General projects we stand to lose another $12M unless we fix it. Plastics in the green bin works: Orgaworld’s London plant processes waste for Toronto and York Region; they allow consumers to put their organic waste in plastic bags and have been rewarded with a public adoption rate of 90%; - Kanata Central Park: We have 11 hectares of land that borders Kanata Avenue (across from Best Buy and towards the Holiday Inn). We should turn this in to our very own Kanata Central Park replete with lighting, pathways, benches and a bandstand.

Under the current plan, there will be stores, restaurants and residential buildings located on that site. We have more than enough of those in Kanata right now. We have one chance to get this plan right, to protect this urban forest from development.

It’s true that approximately 23 acres of this land is protected but let’s keep all 11 hectares and do something special with it that future generations will thank us for.

- Fighting unfair tax increases: In 2011, Kanata North was hit with a $2.5 million, 10 year, “Matt is an individual with character, with a sense of purpose and with the backbone to stand up for the best interests of Kanata North. I agree with his view that Kanata must be included in the LRT plan for the future… we cannot be excluded from that plan.

Having Matt at the Council table, someone who will look out for our needs as residents of Kanata North, is essential going forward.”

– Senator Vern White, former Chief of Police (City of Ottawa).

levy to pay for burying 12 hydro poles along Kanata Avenue. This is something that should have been fixed in policy – not fixed by a one-off dip in to the pockets of the residents of this ward. Additionally, I have consistently said that residents who live in private neighbourhoods shouldn’t have to pay full property taxes while at the same time having to pay for their own service delivery (sewer & fire hydrant maintenance, snow-plowing, etc). I believe the City should credit the difference these residents have to pay for these services on their tax bill – so that these residents don’t have to pay upwards of an extra $1200 annually for these services. Finally, your tax rates are too high – especially given that services have continued to decline over the last few years. You deserve a Councillor who will stand up against unfair tax increases at every turn; one that will look for efficiencies and ways to deliver better value for tax dollars… not one who says one thing during the election and then is a reliable yes vote on every tax increase this City has seen in the last number of years.

- An Action Plan for Seniors: Let’s build an age-friendly community. My plan includes a walkability audit with safety inspections of paths used by residents, park beautification and improved lighting,and improving snow and ice removal procedures for local pathways and frequentlycrossed roadways. I will push for an increase to the number of days that seniors can ride OCTranspo, free of charge; and, I will work with community partners to implement a Kanata shuttle service to ensure seniors can easily, and quickly, access both business and recreation facilities; and, - An Accountability Pledge: I will hold myself to a two-term limit as City Councillor, should I be fortunate enough to be elected to a first term on October 27th. I will curb the abuse of a councillor’s

office budget by stopping the practice of using taxpayer money to wine and dine friends while using office resources to promote an incumbent’s reelection; and, I will reject free parking passes, free VIP passes and free tickets to events across the City from local businesses and groups. If I want to attend those events, I’ll pay for them myself, out of my own pocket, just like everybody else.

I am a parent, teacher, and community activist; I’ve served as President of the Briarbrook-Morgan’s Grant Community Association, and, since 2011, served as President of the Kanata Lakes Community Association. I live in Kanata Lakes with my three children, two daughters aged 12 and 8 and a 6-yearold son. I’m running to build tomorrow’s Kanata North, with you, because I love this community and know it can be even better than what it is today.

If you want somebody who will focus on the next 50 years of Kanata, and not just on a political career, then I ask you to lend me your vote.

We don’t get “do-overs” after voting day – There is too much at stake in this election to settle for status quo candidates.

On October 27th, if you want real change, I ask you to lend me your vote.

Warmest regards,

City Council Candidate (Kanata North) Ph: 613-291-5602 Email: matt4kanata@gmail.com Web: www.mattmuirhead.ca

“Matt Muirhead is a loyal friend, a dedicated family man and a community leader who has a track record of getting results for Kanata North. We need young dedicated leaders like Matt who can identify with issues and problems for our community into the long term future and not just focus on the next few years down the road.”

Kanata start-up wins Canada Post e-commerce award Adam Kveton

adam.kveton@metroland.com

Community - A new Kanata company that streamlines the fundraising process for businesses and notfor-profits alike won Canada Post’s Most Innovative Start-Up award on Sept. 23.

The company, called Tees for the People, located on Hazeldean Road and Terry Fox Drive, began in January of 2014 to provide fundraisers with an easy way to sell t-shirts.

The company’s business model has corporations, not-for-profits and fundraising groups submit their T-shirt design for a particular event or campaign to the company through their website.

Tees for the People then takes orders for the T-shirts directly from supporters over a period of several weeks. Once the campaign or fundraiser is over, Tees for the People charges the wholesale rate of the T-shirts to the campaign, and transfers the difference directly to the company, not-for-profit or charity being supported by the T-shirt campaign.

The T-shirts are then sent out to those who purchased them.

This takes the guesswork out of having to order T-shirts of various sizes in advance, and having to spend the money to have them printed up-front. “The campaign organizer has very little involvement as far as the headache goes,� said Pat Sullivan, the company’s vice-president of sales. “Ultimately they just drag and drop their design on the garment, and set a few parameters and send out the URL to their social networks and they are done,� he said. “All the orders come into us. We print (the T-shirts), we hit the credit cards and give them their profit.�

The company has seen success with many organizations, including the Sierra Club, the Red Cross, and local Norway Bay group in Gatineau near Arnprior, said Sullivan. “Some campaigns have been incredibly successful, raising tens of thousands of dollars,� he said.

Canada Post, which does a lot of the shipping for the company, took notice and nominated the company for its E-Commerce Innovation Awards.

Tees for the People recognized as most innovative start-up Continued from page 20

“I didn’t really take (the nomination) seriously because I didn’t realize how good a thing we actually had,” said Sullivan.

However, as the running for the Most Innovative StartUp award dwindled, Tees for the People found itself in the top three and headed to Toronto for an awards gala.

“As it’s getting closer and

closer to the announcement of who won, you kind of go through the ups downs of, ‘We won, no we didn’t, yeah we won, no we didn’t win.’

So you are sitting on pins and needles and when they finally announced it, I was in a bit of a daze,” said Sullivan.

The prize for the award was $50,000 in Canada Post shipping.

“It is really amazing for us, because it’s going to help

immensely,” he said.

Sullivan said that while the company is profitable, it is also something he can be proud of on a humanitarian scale as well. “(Canadians) have the ability to support those that need it, the causes that need it,” he said, adding that Tees for the People is becoming a cog in that system.

“It’s always nice to be able to feel like you are doing something that’s helping people.”

Public Meetings on Boundary Revisions and Elementary Alternative Program Boundary Expansion The public is invited to attend one of four joint meetings to be held across the District to seek input on minor attendance boundary revisions and the expansion of the Elementary Alternative Program boundaries.

Minor Attendance Boundary Revisions In an effort to ensure school boundaries are consistent with new development areas, improve access to programming, provide better utilization of existing instructional space and address inconsistencies in neighbourhood alignments, staff is proposing a number of minor boundary adjustments to provide for effective accommodation of students in different parts of the District.

Breaking the chains of recidivism Local community rehabilitative programs and services pick up the slack for federal government

results, excessive use of incarceration has enormous cost implications.”

If mandatory minimums have no affect on recidivism, the federal government must find a way to justify these by evaluating their affects on crime, said Irwin Waller, a professor of criminology at the University of Ottawa.

“We actually know that it doesn’t from studies in other countries, which really means the U.S.,” he said.

Yasir Naqvi, Ontario minister of Community Safety and Correctional Services, said the provincial government’s focus is crime prevention.

“The federal government seems to have a different focus than that,” Naqvi said. “We have raised those concerns with the federal government. We believe that they should offset the cost of measures like mandatory minimum sentencing … because that is going to have a detrimental impact not only on the provinces, but also on the society at large as well.”

Federal Public Safety Minister Steven Blaney did not respond to numerous requests for comment by Metroland East.

Metroland East Special Report

A

staggering number of Ontario convicts – more than half - will go on to reoffend within two years of completing their sentence.

With lack of supports, employment and rehabilitation opportunities, exxperts say many offenders fall through the cracks and are sent back behind bars.

The government is failing on the public safety file, according to Wayne Easter, the Liberal public safety critic.

In Canada the rate of recidivism is estimated at 44 per cent, according to a study prepared for the Solictor General of Canada on federal offenders released between April 1, 1994 to March 31, 1995.

In comparison, the national rate of recidivism across the United States, a country known for its high rate of incarceration, is 43 per cent.

“They have been working on this issue (of recidivism) through the Justice Centre (in the United States) and they are going in the opposite direction from the Harper government because they know the tough-on-crime approach doesn’t work,” Easter said.

With the introduction of mandatory minimums and stiffer sentencing, prisons across Canada are bracing themselves for an influx of inmates.

During the past decade, federal prisons have seen a population increase of 24 per cent, moving from 12,413 inmates in 2003 to 15,400 inmates in 2014.

Meanwhile, the number of prisoners incarcerated in provincial and territorial jails saw a 13.1 per cent jump over the same time period.

But that doesn’t mean crime is up, according to a 2014 report by Statistics Canada.

The traditional crime rate fell by eight per cent, continuing a trend that started in the early 1990s and this year reached its lowest level since 1969, according to the StatCan report.

Critics tie the increase in the num-

Prison time has a negative affect on reducing criminal behaviour according to a review of 50 studies between 1958 and 1999 by a team of academics from the University of New Brunswick and the University of Cincinnati. Excessive use of incarceration also has ‘enormous cost implications’ warns the study.

Part 4: A prescription to reduce the number of repeat offenders in Canada’s jails as well as the rate of incarceration. ber of incarcerated offenders to the federal government’s tough-on-crime legislation, which introduced stiffer sentencing rules and mandatory minimums.

“The principle rationale for mandatory minimums is the belief that length of time in prison acts as a deterrent for future recidivism,” states a 1999 report

by Paul Gendreau and Claire Goggin, with the Centre for Criminal Justice Studies at the University of New Brunswick and Francis Cullen, from

the department of criminal justice at the University of Cincinnati.

But a review of 50 studies dating back to 1958 showed that jail time resulted in a slight increase in the rate of criminal reoffence and that there was a tendency for low-risk offenders to be “more negatively affected” by serving time in prison.

“Prisons should not be used, with the expectation of reducing criminal behaviour,” concluded the report’s authors. “On the basis of the present

Expenditures at federal jails have ballooned from $1.58 billion to $2.72 billion from 2002 to 2012 and the cost of incarceration has gone up by 47.8 per cent in that time, according to a 2013 report by Public Safety Canada.

Last year, the federal government asked Correctional Service Canada to cut 10 per cent of its operating budget.

“So they began to look at ways that they could maintain their core operations but still save money,” said Howard Sapers, the federal prisons’ ombudsman. “What that’s translated into is the erosion of some services for offenders and the cancellation of some programs.”

Over the years, the correctional department has eliminated prison farms, reduced access to prison libraries and cut funding to buy library materials.

Overcrowding in Canadian jails means less space for programming, and double bunking is now the norm, Easter said.

REHABILITATIVE PROGRAMS

The pressure placed on the correctional system is also affecting family members of offenders.

An Ottawa support group for women with relatives serving time in prison

is advocating for funding proven rehabilitative programs, changes to Canada’s remand system as well as more diversion programs, such as a mentalhealth or drug court and restorative justice.

“We want to put practices in place, evidence-based practices in our corrections system that will reduce recidivism, because none of us want to go through it again,” said one of two founding members of Mothers Offering Mutual Support or MOMS. Eventually, most offenders will be released from prison, the Ottawabased mother said, who asked to remain anonymous.

“This person could be your neighbour. How do you want this person to come out? Do you want them coming out having good insight as to what led to their offence, really good insight and for them to have strategies to ensure it’s never going to happen again?” she asked. “(Correctional Service Canada) has a whole list of excellent rehabilitative programs, but their funding has been cut and some of the programs too have been kind of blended together as a one-size-fits-all program.”

Meanwhile, the rate at which offenders are granted parole continues to set new historic lows and a greater percentage of offenders are spending more of their sentences behind bars in increasingly volatile and hardening conditions of confinement.

The programming that does exist often faces precarious funding situations and dwindling resources.

If prison programs are cut, that moves some of the burden to community-based programming, though dollars are stretched just as thin there.

Impending federal cuts to Circles of Support and Accountability, a community based program that helps high-risk sex offenders reintegrate after prison is “nonsensical,” said Randall Garrison, the federal public safety critic for the New Democratic Party. “That is probably the most single most effective program in probably the whole prison system.”

Public Safety Canada acknowledges the program’s success, but in the House of Commons, Minister Steven Blaney has said the Circles program is not in the ministry’s mandate, said Garrison, who doesn’t buy this, and has told Blaney, “‘Your mandate is not punishment, it’s corrections. It’s called corrections. It’s called rehabilitation.’”

Easter also points to evidence that shows rehabilitation programs have a positive impact on an individual’s ability to rebuild their life.

But the supports need to be there.

“There needs to be a national mental-health strategy,” he said. “Sixty per cent of the country’s inmates have mental-health issues and 70 per cent have addictions issues. Prison is the wrong place to deal with these types of things.

Far better than (going) cold turkey is support programs; there’s a chance of making it then. Beyond that, simply making it a condition of parole means that when someone falls off the wagon it’s a violation of their sentence. What works best isn’t punishment, but maybe access to a 30-day facility.”

One Ottawa halfway house for federal offenders looks to blend treatment and reintegration, and is designed to help treat the root causes of substance abuse and teach offenders new coping skills.

“Guys who come to Decision House don’t go back to jail,” said Louis Berubé, executive director of Maison Decision House, which has 14 beds that are always in demand.

Housing and employment help are also available to offenders, many of whom have been in and out of the system.

The organization’s annual budget is a little more than $500,000 – a lot less than the cost of keeping all “his guys” in jail, Berubé said.

John Howard Society of Ottawa staff visit the halfway house to offer employment skills training and provide leads on jobs.

The organization deals with clients who have complex needs, but the key areas of concentration need to be safe,

affordable housing and employment.

The society has a business stream that trains offenders how to do asbestos abatement work and then helps place them in jobs, said Don Waddell, executive director.

One offender who took advantage of the program, who asked to remain anonymous, said after he took the course, he realized afterwards he wouldn’t be able to join the worker’s union. Instead, he was paid less for the same work, and given worse tasks.

The offender said he and his coworkers were treated like secondclass citizens.

“I’m treated differently,’ I’m looked at differently,” he said. “We’re given the dirtier jobs and frowned upon. No matter what inroads I take, I’m always seen as a criminal.”

Though work is being done in the community to curb recidivism, there continues to be a push for change within jails.

The Ontario Public Service Employees Union Corrections Division published a paper in April 2014 titled New Directions: A blueprint for reforming the province of Ontario’s prison system to protect the public, reduce costs and rehabilitate inmates.

The report provides a variety of short-term and long-term fixes to reform the corrections system.

It suggests building temporary housing structures within existing facilities in order to renovate space to expand and add specialized units for severally physically and mentally ill inmates.

“We have an acute crisis with acute mental-health issues,” said Garrison, noting that between 40 and 80 per cent of people admitted to prisons have a mental illness or an addiction.

“In terms of acute problems, we don’t have adequate facilities.”

Though the federal government

says Canada’s prison population is not increasing as projected, Garrison said it is still growing by about 1,000 inmates per year.

“So you still have to provide the physical facilities for that and so a lot of resources are going to that and we don’t have the increased programming money to keep up with that,” he said.

“And so wait lists for treatment are going to get longer and therefore we’re going to get more people who are released who still have mentalillness problems, addiction problems (and) … who are more likely to reoffend because they haven’t had these basic underlying social causes of crime dealt with.”

There are programs in place, often run by non-for-profit organizations, which help fill the gap in services for repeat offenders.

Despite a lack of funding, some of the people they have helped have been able to get a fresh start or successfully begin reintegration in society.

Dan Parlow is one of those people who is breaking the cycle of recidivism, after being in and out of jail since he was convicted of armed robbery when he was 16.

Now, at 49, he’s been out of jail for the longest stretch since that first conviction, and says he knew he had to stay clean after he was paroled in July 2013, otherwise he’d end up back behind bars.

Enter the LifeHouse Residential program, a five-month, substanceabuse residential program run by the Ottawa Mission. Parlow completed the program, then entered secondstage housing and is now moving to an apartment in Blackburn Hamlet. He also started a degree in criminology at Carleton University. He was able to attend school thanks to financial support from the Mission’s donors.

At the close of the first semester,

Parlow had straight As and was hired to research Gladue reports for a consultant firm called IndinGENIUS. The reports are used in the Gladue court system, a special court for Aboriginal offenders – who are extremely overrepresented in the Canadian corrections system, according to statistics from Correctional Services Canada.

It’s a job he says he relishes because he believes it’s particularly important for aboriginals who are involved in the criminal justice system to have the supports they need.

DIVERSION PROGRAMS

There is a glimmer of hope for a fresh start if an offender can enter a diversion program, such as the precharge diversion program run by the Salvation Army, which works with first-time offenders.

The typical offence is theft under $5,000. Clients are directed to the program while they are waiting for their first court appearance, and are often referred by Ottawa police.

“Our office is in the court house and I typically see 30 to 50 clients per month,” said caseworker Sheena Lalonde.

When assessing a referral, Lalonde said she often looks at the whole picture.

“A single mom with two kids on Ontario Works is a totally different case than say, a teen stealing a stereo,” Lalonde said, adding she may assign the mother to community service hours at the food bank, so she can serve her sentence and connect with the organization for resources to prevent repeat offending.

Lalonde said she looks for the root cause of an offender’s crime.

“If someone is stealing to pay for a gambling addiction, for example, it’s

levels that provide public safety and hopefully can save taxpayers money in the long run.””

important to treat the original issue,” she said. “Scrubbing toilets isn’t really going to help them.”

Lalonde said just as much time is spent on connecting clients with resources like Ontario Works or the Low Income Energy Assistance program to help pay utility costs.

The Intermittent Community Work Program offered by the Salvation Army is similar to pre-charge diversion, but instead deals with clients who have already been sentenced. It helps them remain in the community and do service rather than lose their jobs by going to prison.

The program receives some funding from the Ministry of Community Safety and Correctional Services.

Most clients are up on fraud or minor theft charges, and sentences vary, from two weeks to a year of weekends.

“It’s expensive to keep people in jail and this way people get to keep their jobs,” said program head April Rutherford, who deals with about 30 clients each month.

Offenders often work at the Salvation Army thrift store and the Shepherds of Good Hope, a charity that helps the poor and homeless in Ottawa.

Programs such as pre-charge diversion and intermittent community work would have been a welcome solution for Parlow when he first came into contact with the law.

Though he says he is now turning his life around, he can’t help but wonder what would have happened if he hadn’t entered prison, which he refers to as a “University of Crime,” at a young age.

“The system can be very harsh,” Parlow said. “Sometimes it can be a tough cycle to break on your own.”

News – The day Beverley and Brian Davis were told Brian had a brain tumour last year, life as they knew it was forever changed.

Their world turned upside down, the Mooney’s Bay area residents, who have been married 42 years, left the doctor’s office reeling from the devastating news.

Beverley turned to friends, and through Barbara Cook and Dan Greenberg with the Danbe Foundation she learned about the Ottawa Regional Cancer Foundation.

But she didn’t take their advice and reach out until after her husband underwent a nineERIN MCCRACKEN/METROLAND and-a-half-hour surgery, radiaCancer coaches with the Ottawa Regional Cancer Foundation Francine Beaupré, left, and tion and chemotherapy.

Bonney Elliot, right, have been helping Beverley and Brian Davis every step of the way The turning point came following Brian’s brain tumour diagnosis last year. when the oncologist sat them down with the news that Brian had 12 to 15 months left to live.

“And that’s when I thought, ‘Ok, now I need help,’” Beverley told the large crowd that gathered at the Ottawa Re-

gional Cancer Foundation’s Maplesoft Centre for Cancer Survivorship Care on Alta Vista Drive on Monday, Oct. 6.

“I cried for the first hour, that’s all I could do, just let it go,” she said of her first meeting with her cancer coach at the centre.

Since then she has been receiving support from two coaches and has taken caregiving and nutritional courses as part of the foundation’s cancer coaching health and social care service, which launched in November 2011.

“It’s a necessity for the cancer patient and family members because you’re completely overwhelmed. You can’t breathe,” Beverley said.

“I thought I’d never find joy again.”

She and her husband are among the 2,000 families that have benefitted from the program.

And thanks to a $2-million gift from the Danbe Foundation, announced Monday, the foundation will be able to expand its service over the next 10 years by hiring additional

people and certifying more coaches for its five-member coaching team, said Linda Eagen, the foundation’s president and chief executive officer.

This will allow the organization to help many more of the 30,000 people in eastern Ontario who are receiving treatment for cancer, Eagen said.

As the first service of its kind in Canada, families connect at no charge with health professionals, such as nurses, social workers, kinesiologists, nutritionists, physiotherapists and other wellness practitioners.

“Coaching is simple,” Eagen said. “It’s human care.”

Through the program, families and cancer patients receive help navigating next steps following a cancer diagnosis, as well as support and guidance as part of an individualized plan.

“You have cancer. I imagine that must be the most terrifying thing to hear,” said Greenberg with the Danbe Foundation.

Coaching provides ‘magic and miracles’ Continued from page 28

“What I can imagine is a world without cancer, and I think we have four things in our community that will help get us there one day,” he said adding that Ottawa is home to a great health-care system, as well as cancer champions like the Davises, the cancer foundation and its cancer coaching program.

Supporting the program was a nobrainer since cancer coaching provides “magic and miracles,” Cook said.

“It’s about the person. It’s not about the treatment.”

Brian, a former Canadian ambassador to Syria, said he could see an enormous difference in his wife Beverley after she began coming to the Maplesoft Centre.

“Because the stresses of looking after somebody under my circumstances on a daily basis were starting to grind her down, I find. By taking the caregiver course, speaking to the

cancer coaches, you could see a level of relief, a weight off her shoulders,” he said. “And it helped me to see her that way, and it helped our family as well, because everybody in the family, of course, is under stress when you learn you have cancer, but the caregiver carries a big weight.”

More than 6,000 new cancer cases are diagnosed in Ottawa each year and as a result there is a need for improved care in the community, said Mayor Jim Watson.

Many will see eight different health-care professionals in their journey, and spend an average of 15 minutes with each expert during each appointment.

“You don’t have a lot of time – 15 minutes – in, out,” he said.

“And that’s 15 minutes to ask a lot of important life-saving questions – questions about the specific forms of cancer, different treatment options, clinical trials, what community services are available, what comes next, are they going to survive, what re-

sources are available,” Watson said.

“For most, that 15 minutes is clearly just not enough time.”

That’s where the cancer coaching program comes in.

With tears in his eyes, John Ouellette, the cancer foundation’s vicepresident of philanthropy, said he only wishes the cancer coaching service had been available when his father was diagnosed with terminal cancer many years ago.

“Wouldn’t it have been great if our family had the support that people have now in our community?” he said. “We didn’t know where to turn.”

For this reason, the funding announcement is cause for celebration.

“Today’s about turning the page, and not looking back but forward on to what cancer coaching can do for our community,” he said.

Artists take up 24hour comic challenge Emma Jackson emma.jackson@metroland.com

News - Doing anything for 24 hours straight is difficult, but three comic book artists were up to the task on Oct. 4 as they took on the annual 24-hour Comics Challenge.

Beginning at 10 a.m., Clayton Jacobs and Westin Church joined Suzanne Marsden at her Kanata home for an entire day as part of the global challenge.

The goal, Marsden said, is to draw one page per hour – which was harder than it sounds, as Church said he was already a page behind only five hours in.

The artists said candy, coffee and the perfect blend of the two – chocolate-covered coffee beans – were all part of their strategy for staying awake through the wee hours.

The event attracts as many as 2,000 artists every year throughout the United States, Canada and the world according to comic retail trade association

ComicsPro, which administers the event.

American artist Scott McCloud first challenged himself and a friend to complete a 24-hour comic in the summer of 1990, in an effort to blast through writers’ block.

The phenomenon began to spread until 2004, when comic book publisher Nat Gertler organized the first official event to be played out at stores across the United States.

By 2007, the celebration had spread to 18 countries, involving over 1,200 artists and producing an estimated 20,000 pages of comics in a single weekend, McCloud said on his website.

Marsden said she has participated in the challenge online in the past, but this year wanted to open her home up to other artists who wanted some moral support while they worked.

She said it’s a refreshing way to approach your art, especially if you’re stuck in a rut.

“Because you’re going so fast, you don’t over think what you’re doing, you just proceed,” said Marsden, who founded the monthly Ottawa Comic Jam in

Chinatown with Jacobs several years ago. “Sometimes (you’re drawing) stuff at 2 a.m. that you wouldn’t otherwise think of doing. There are themes you

As far she knew, their group was the only Ottawa team participating in an organized way.

Coalition hopes to lay waste to current council Emma Jackson emma.jackson@metroland.com

News - A handful of candidates across the city of Ottawa are promising to scrap the green bin program, bring back weekly garbage pickup, give hydro dividends back to customers and stop the spread of bio-solids on local farmlands.

The Ottawa Property Owners Coalition is the brainchild of Osgoode Ward candidate Mark Scharfe, a farmer and retired Ottawa police officer who wants to overturn the current council – and most of its decisions.

But one candidate is not enough.

“Even if I’m fortunate enough to get elected, if I bring a motion to this council and they haven’t changed much, I’ll just get outvoted,” Scharfe

said. “So we have to get at least half of them out of there.”

Scharfe said he has found 14 other candidates across 23 wards who agreed to bring back “basic municipal services” like weekly garbage pickup.

Along with his son Brandon Scharfe running in Alta Vista and his nephew Roger Scharfe in Gloucester-South Nepean, Scharfe said coalition candidates include Jennifer Robitaille (Orleans), Ian Bursey (Barrhaven), James Parsons (West Carleton-March), David Lee (Stittsville), Guy Annable (College), Mohamed Roble (Gloucester-Southgate), Rene Tessier (Beacon Hill-Cyrville), David-George Oldham (Rideau Vanier), Michael Kostiuk (River), Marc Belisle (Cumberland), Andrew Modray (Innes) and Bruce Faulkner (Kanata South).

If most of them get elected, Scharfe said that would be enough to make big changes at city hall.

“If we can get 11 or 12 to support this platform, then we can get it through. It’s no more complicated than that,” he said.

West Carleton-March candidate James Parsons said he was “on board from the get-go.”

He said he agreed with Scharfe on most policy points, and especially believed in his election strategy.

“There’s been much made about Mr. O’Brien, or even Mr. Harper, in that they brought forth a platform telling the people ‘This is what we are probably able to accomplish if enough of us get elected in, because we have voting power,’” Parsons said.

Osgoode candidate Mark Scharfe has gathered 13 other candidates to support his platform calling for the end of Orgaworld, including Kanata South candidate Bruce Faulkner, pictured here.

But cancelling the contract is no easy feat either: city manager Kent Kirkpatrick said cancelling would cost between $8 million and

chael Kostiuk said he was also happy to join Scharfe’s team.

“I’m running on a governance issue: improving the governance at the city of Ottawa,” he said. “To try to do things individually it’s difficult, particularly if you’re a newcomer. Unless you get together your voice is small.”

The platform centres on the “dangerous and ineffective” Orgaworld green bin program, which Scharfe says “took advantage” of Ottawa taxpayers.

“I read the contract myself, and I can tell you unequivocally that I don’t know a farmer or a businessman in the city of Ottawa who would ever sign something like that,” he said.

In July, a report from city auditor general Ken Hughes found that the city has already overspent $8 million on the Orgaworld contract.

The city pays at least $7 million a year to Orgaworld to process 80,000 tonnes of organic waste. It’s a threshold the city has barely been able to reach in the seven years since the contract was negotiated, leaving the city to pay to process some waste twice. The city has paid $4.7 million extra for unutilized capacity since the start of the contract, plus $3 million extra since the start of the contract to separately process leaf and yard waste, Hughes said.

$10 million – and Orgaworld would likely argue it’s higher.

Continued from page 32

The property owners group also wants to bring back weekly garbage pickup – an essential municipal service, Scharfe says – and also giving Hydro Ottawa’s annual dividends back to its customers instead of city hall.

Scharfe is also passionate about stopping the spread of bio-solids – treated human

sewage – on farmers’ fields, something he considers a public safety issue.

Retiring Osgoode Coun.

Doug Thompson, who has spent 31 years in municipal politics, said he doubts the coalition will sweep council as Scharfe hopes.

“You can go out and find in every ward someone who would say, ‘Yes, I’m going to join; if we’re elected we’ll work at

getting rid of Orgaworld and the green bin,” Thompson said.

“But the reality is that you’re one vote. Maybe one of them ever has a chance of sitting around the table.”

He said being what he calls a “no group” doesn’t tend to go far.

“The general public might not like the green bin program as much as we thought, but I think people are more sensible than

“That was way to easy!”

saying just cancel everything,” he said. “There is a cost to everything.”

Scharfe said he believes the group represents the interests of all Ottawa homeowners.

“We want to be sure the community knows we’re not a renegade group of left- or right-wingers,” he said. We’re just standing up for what we feel are the basic municipal services that should be provided to property owners.”

Canada’s dwindling blood supply prompts urgent appeal for donors Erin McCracken

erin.mccracken@metroland.com

News - A blood shortage across the country has prompted Canadian Blood Services to appeal for donors to roll up their sleeves and boost dwindling supplies to keep hospitals from having to defer elective surgeries and other treatments.

Summertime is typically a slow donation time due to people’s holiday travel schedules, but in the past few months demand for blood, coupled with low donor attendance, has resulted in Canada’s lowest blood inventory since 2008.

“Every community has been struggling this year and that’s why we officially launched the appeal on Tuesday morning (Sept. 30) to all Canadians,” said Pamela Mullins, director of donor relations for Canadian Blood Services, a national non-profit that manages much of Canada’s blood supply.

“We typically like to keep inventory between five and eight days on hand and right now we are just hovering around that three-day mark.

“That’s why we have raised this to a critical issue.”

It is imperative for the agency to keep adequate supplies on hand in order to serve hospital demands for blood on a day-to-day basis.

Blood types A and O are especially needed.

“So if we don’t turn this around, we will have difficulty meeting the expected hospital demands across the country,” said Mullins.

Elective surgeries and other routine medical treatments may have to be delayed until blood donations rise to healthy levels. Hospitals are not yet at that stage, but they are closely monitoring the situation, she said.

“That’s why this is so critical.”

Canadian Blood Services collects about 17,000 units a week across the country, but has been failing to accomplish that in recent months due to higher-than-expected appointment cancellation and no-show rates.

“So in order for us to turn that around, not only do we have to meet those 17,000 units a week, but we also have to have an additional 7,500 on top of that to make up the short-

fall we have been seeing,” the director said. While the organization recognizes that people lead very busy lives, they are hearing from donors who think that if they don’t show up for their appointment there will be other donors waiting in the wings.

“But there isn’t and that’s the issue,” Mullins said.

“So if you don’t come in, that unit doesn’t get to the hospital and doesn’t get to the patient.”

Some people aren’t donating because they say no one has asked them.

“So we’re officially asking,” she said. “It’s really such a wonderful thing that you can be doing – it’s an easy thing that you can be doing – to truly have a direct impact on somebody’s life.”

Fifty-two per cent of Canadians say they or someone they know has needed blood or a blood product for surgeries or medical treatments, “yet less than four per cent of the population donates,” said Mullins.

Setting aside one hour can make a huge difference.

“It’s such a significant gift that

Canada-Ontario job grant now open Brier Dodge

brier.dodge@metroland.com

News - A new job grant opened Sept. 29 for Ontario employers.

The grant is geared towards skilled workers who need short-term job training.

It will provide up to $10,000 per person for training costs,

and requires employers to contribute a third of the total cost.

The Canada-Ontario job grant was announced on Sept. 26.

It intended to help develop job-specific skills.

“By encouraging businesses to invest more in their employees, these new em-

ployer-driven programs are an important step toward improving Ontario’s economic competitiveness,” said Ontario Chamber of Commerce president and CEO Allan O’Dette.

“The Ontario government has engaged the business community in the design of these programs, and we are

pleased that our advice has been taken.”

Training can be done through colleges of applied arts and technology, publicly-assisted universities, school boards, private trainers operating in compliance with the Private Career Colleges Act, union-based training centre and product ven-

dors.

“Employers in Orléans have another tool to help them train their team to succeed,” said Ottawa-Orléans MPP Marie-France Lalonde in a press release.

“No one knows better than our employers what skills their businesses need to thrive.”

Hope.

Why work with a law firm?

QUESTION: My former spouse is self-employed and claims to be earning an annual income of $35,000.00. They have the ability to significantly reduce their personal income by claiming business expenses on their tax return. How will the court consider this for purposes of determining child support obligations?

ANSWER: Child support is based on the payor’s gross annual income. Courts generally refer to line 150 of the payor's tax returns to determine the amount of support payable. If not satisfied that line 150 is a true representation of actual annual income, a judge will consider a person’s average annual income over three years. If a judge determines that line 150 is not a fair representation of the payor’s annual income, they will deem an amount that is fair and reasonable for the purposes of calculating child support obligations.

Parents entitled to receive support may resort to court proceedings to compel the payor to make full financial disclosure. By law complete financial disclosure is required and courts will order document production early in court proceedings. Failure to make full disclosure may result in significant sanctions in the form of cost orders and even findings of contempt.

In appropriate circumstances lawyers representing parents entitled to child support will obtain an order for the production of documents in facilitate investigation of the payor spouse’s true financial circumstances. In cases where the payor spouse’s claimed income is inconsistent with their lifestyle, courts have imputed an income which more fairly represents the payor's means. In the end, a court will decide on a fair and reasonable outcome for both parties.

Aircraft crash-lands in Ledbury-Banff park Erin McCracken

erin.mccracken@metroland.com

News – Two 11-year-old boys walking home from school received the shock of their young lives as they watched a small single-engine two-seater airplane make an emergency landing in Ledbury Park on Monday afternoon.

Frantz Paul and Benit Murhula saw the aircraft swoop in low over the basketball court at the park, located at the corner of Banff and Ledbury avenues, near Bank Street, just before 2:30 p.m. on Oct. 6.

“When I was walking home I saw a plane trying to go on the ground but then it almost hit the basketball court,” Frantz said.

“But it pulled up and it passed

(over) the play structures and it went in the forest.

“The engine was off so we didn’t hear nothing and when it hit the ground it made a big thump,” Paul said.

“The trees were cracking and stuff,” said Murhula.

“A lot of people crowded around it,” Paul added.

The boys thought anyone inside the plane likely had been injured – or worse. Fire and police officials have since confirmed the pilot and passenger of the plane walked away uninjured.

“It made me feel scared because I thought that the person … injured himself badly,” Frantz said, adding that he has never before seen anything like it.

“I felt bad for the guy because I thought he was like dead,” Murhala added.

The quick-thinking boys raced to the nearby Banff Avenue Community House and reported the emergency to a grownup.

Ottawa police and firefighters said initial reports indicate the pilot was experiencing engine trouble on the way to the Ottawa Macdonald-Cartier International Airport.

Civil air navigation service, Nav Can, initially alerted Ottawa police to say a plane had left their radar for a few seconds “and this was the reason,” said Const. Chuck Benoit, Ottawa police spokesman, adding he did not know where the plane was flying in from.

Eight Ottawa fire trucks responded to multiple 911 calls.

“We got reports that (the pilot) was experiencing some engine troubles. He was lined up to land at the airport but didn’t make it or knew he wouldn’t make it so he decided to land it safely in this park,” said Capt.

Marc Messier, Ottawa fire department spokesman.

The tail end of the plane could be seen sticking out of the tree line at the east end of the park. A backhoe and chainsaw operator were brought in around 5:30 p.m. to clear the area of brush before the plane

Workers prepare a small single-engine, two-seater airplane so that it can be hauled out of the tree line at Ledbury Park on Oct. 6. Initial reports indicate the pilot of the aircraft made an emergency landing due to engine trouble on the way to the Ottawa Macdonald-Cartier International Airport. could be tugged out.

The emergency landing was applauded by Ottawa fire Capt.

Roy Robinson, incident commander at the scene.

The male pilot did an “excellent job” finding a flat area for his aircraft to land, he said.

“He came just over the building, landed on the grass and skidded into the trees.

“From what I could see it looked like he just cleared the (community pavilion) build-

ing nicely, landed on the grass right around first base,” he said, adding tire marks can be seen in the outfield of the baseball diamond at the park.

“There was a little fuel spill so we laid down foam just as a precaution,” Robinson said.

Local resident Paula Oakley watched the plane circle over the area, but thought nothing of it until she heard sirens race down her street.

Her community is fortunate no one in the plane or on the ground was injured in the park where children play and people walk their dogs, she said.

“I was terrified,” Oakley said. “Thank God it was only a little plane.”

Youville Centre, St. Mary’s Home gets funding boost Money to help both agencies gain mental health accreditation Michelle Nash

michelle.nash@metroland.com

News - Two local parenting support organizations now have the funding to help expand their services.

The Youville Centre and St. Mary’s Home were granted $300,000 from the Ontario Trillium Foundation on Sept. 30 at the Youville’s annual general meeting at the United Way Ottawa’s office.

Both organizations work with teen and young mothers in different capacities.

At St. Mary’s, at-risk and homeless pregnant and parenting youth receive prenatal education, infant mental health and parenting counselling. The Youville Centre helps young mothers complete their education by making childcare, mental health and addiction counselling available.

The funding from the grant will be

split evenly between the two organizations and will help each towards their goal of becoming accredited mental health agencies.

The accreditation could take up to four years. The organizations will use the funding to hire a consultant to help them with the process.

Both executive directors of St. Mary’s Home, Nancy MacNider and Youville Centre’s Cindy Simpson both expressed excitement about expanding services at the organizations.

“St. Mary’s Home is thrilled to have this new opportunity to enhance our organizational strengths while partnering with the Youville Centre,” MacNider said. “As we reach towards excellence in a process that shares economies of scale, we are building on decades of collaboration on behalf of pregnant and parenting youth and their children.

This announcement means: We all win.”

Simpson said both Youville and St. Mary’s have been partners for decades and was thrilled to have the opportunity to work together towards the accreditation.

Low-income Ottawans being squeezed at the supermarket Healthy food prices have jumped 10% in a year: Ottawa Public Health Steph Willems

steph.willems@metroland.com

News – Low-income Ottawa residents are finding it harder than ever to feed their families, according to the findings of an Ottawa Public Health study.

The 2014 Nutritious Food Basket survey shows that the cost of putting nutritious meals

Steph Willems/Metroland

Sherry Nigro, Ottawa Public Health’s manager of health promotion and disease prevention, speaks to an audience at the Canada Agriculture and Food Museum on Oct. 1. on the table has increased by 10 per cent in the past year.

The findings were released by

OVER

OPH health promotion manager Sherry Nigro at a food security event held Oct. 1 at the

Canada Agriculture and Food Museum.

The rapid rise in food costs, couple with other inflationary pressures, is squeezing individuals and families to the breaking point, said Nigro.

“It means that families are paying an extra $80 a year for food,” said Nigro.

“If you have to pay for your rent, and pay for your food, then you’re already in a deficit … Many, many families in Ottawa are struggling to make ends meet, and what do you think are going to be the priorities?

A house over your head, and the ability to pay for heat.

So, where will you squeeze?

You’ll squeeze by eating less, or by going to a food bank.”

The study is performed by visiting 10 different grocery stores across the city and recording the price of 67 different items, allowing for yearover-year comparisons.

Between 2013 and 2014, the cost of feeding a family of four rose from $789 to $869.

For a family supported by Ontario Works or ODSP, this means that 40 per cent of their monthly income would need to be spent on food; however, the high cost of rent (65 per cent of a budget) means families often have to choose to go without heat, electricity, food, or any number of living expenses to

make ends meet.

Each month, 48,000 people in Ottawa receive emergency food from local food banks.

Nigro estimates that one in 10 Ottawa households is food insecure.

“Where I want to end this is for all of us, as individuals, as professionals, as advocates, and as community members, to think what this means for us,” said Nigro.

“It’s about knowing what resources are out there, it’s about being vigilant and thinking about this through the various lenses … I think each one of us, when we walk out of here, should be thinking of what those implications will be.”

Suburban span to be renamed Vimy Memorial Bridge emma.jackson@metroland.com

News – The StrandherdArmstrong bridge in south Ottawa will soon be christened the Vimy Memorial Bridge, if council accepts a recommendation from the transportation committee.

The Manotick and Barrhaven branches of the Royal Canadian Legion jointly proposed the name Vimy Bridge this July, with the support of Gloucester-South Nepean Coun. Steve Desroches.

The bridge spans the Rideau River, connecting Earl Armstrong Road in Riverside South and Strandherd Drive in Barrhaven.

The proposal aimed to memorialize the 1917 battle of Vimy Ridge, in which 3,600 Canadian troops were killed and another 7,000 were wounded.

A month of consultation revealed overwhelming support for the spirit of the proposal, but enough people were put off by the perceived wordplay of rhyming “bridge” with

“ridge” that the commemorative naming committee added the word “memorial” to appease most naysayers.

“Some (people) objected to what they perceived as a pun on Vimy Ridge,” said Diane Blais in the city clerk’s office.

“The compromise of adding the name ‘memorial’ alleviated their concerns, because their major concern was the play on words.”

Barrhaven legion president Ernie Hughes said the two branches support the revised name – and said it was never their intention to make a pun out of the nation-building battle.

“Once we heard (the revised name) we totally agreed with it. It does sound better,” Hughes said.

In total, the clerk’s office received 293 emails, two letters, four phone calls and a petition signed by 352 individuals responding to the proposal.

Of these 651 responses, 560 were in support and 91 were in opposition, according to a staff report.

Blais said some dissenters

Laura Mueller/Metroland

Ernie Hughes was the brains behind a proposal from the Barrhaven legion to rename the Strandherd-Armstrong bridge after the battle of Vimy Ridge. disagreed with memorializing wars in general, while others wanted more focus on peacekeeping efforts.

Others thought the battle of Vimy Ridge deserved to be

honoured on a more prominent piece of infrastructure, rather than “a suburban bridge.”

But Hughes said there’s no better project for the memorial than the $48 million span con-

necting two of Ottawa’s fastest growing communities.

“A lot of people say let’s wait for the bridge that crosses from Ontario to Quebec; well, they’re never going to name

it that,” Hughes said. A new international bridge to the United States wouldn’t accept the name, either, he predicted.

“People are dreaming if they think there’s going to be another project in the city.”

Staff recommended the transportation committee accept the commemorative name on the grounds that it holds historic significance for the region and country.

A group of legion members from the two southern branches, as well as members from Bells Corners, attended the meeting on Oct. 1 to show their support for the commemorative name.

“We all look back at those people who fought in World War One; here they are charging automatic weapons,” Hughes said. “Canadian soldiers, we remember that type of stuff and the heroes it took to do that. The only way to honour them, as civilians, is to name things after the things they’ve done.”

City council was set to approve the final decision on Oct. 8.

Lasers

Sports - The Kanata Lasers are settling into a new style of coaching under newly-hired Gregg Kennedy with the team earning their second win of the season against the Kemptville 73’s on Oct. 2.

Kanata had lost to Kemptville 3-2 early in the season, but was able to finish their second match-up five minutes into overtime with a goal from the Lasers Bryce Biller.

Kennedy said the team is showing definite improvement, with a stronger focus on defence and offensive power plays.

Kennedy said he is proud of the team’s progress.

“I thought we played very well (against the 73’s) and we deserved to be in front, but we had to pull the goalie to tie (the game back up),”

said Kennedy.

“We gave up a couple of soft (goals), and due to that, we had to work a little harder in the third period to tie it up,” he said.

Kanata’s game against Gloucester on Oct. 3 ended with the Rangers taking finding the win in a shootout with a score of 3-2.

But the Lasers had been leading 2-1 entering the third period in a game Kennedy felt the Lasers should have won.

“We could have used a couple (goals) there … we had chances and just didn’t quite bury them,” he said.

Nonetheless, Kennedy said he is happy with the team’s progress so far.

“I’m quite proud of them,” he said.

Kennedy attributes the improvement to greater tactical knowledge, leadership and hard work from the players, and a rise in skill level with some new players on the team including Dominic Camastra from Smiths Falls and Joey Laird from Stittsville.

Strong leadership is coming from players like centre Nic Marchand

and defenceman Johnny Kyte.

“I don’t believe that (leadership) was a problem before,” said Kennedy.

The team is giving Kennedy the work ethic, drive and commitment he is demanding, he said, which, along with a refocus on tactics, has resulted in an immediate improvement in the team’s defence.

“The defensive side of the puck doesn’t require as much skill. It’s more about heart, commitment and effort,” said Kennedy.

“Was I surprised that they were able to adapt and implement what we wanted? Not really,” he said.

“They are all good hockey players.”

One of the next steps for the team will be to work on scoring goals, as the offensive side of the game continues to let the Lasers down.

“You can’t teach a pure goalscorer,” said Kennedy.

“But you can teach guys to go to the net … and hack and whack until the whistle blows or the puck goes in the net.”

Watered-down motion keeps Renaud rerouting idea alive News - The retiring councillor for Innes Ward brought a watered-down version of a community association’s idea to reroute a road through the Greenbelt to the transportation committee Oct. 1.

The Bradley Estates Community Association thinks a rerouted Renaud Road would help clear up traffic headaches in the area. It’s proposing the idea to use a hydro corridor as an alternative to idea the planned Brian Cobourn Boulevard extension.

“The planned Blackburn Hamlet Extension of Brian Coburn from Navan to Innes is a duplication of the existing Navan Road, and it will not meet the needs of east end residents based on observable and measurable traffic patterns,” said Yasmine Fathers, president of the community association.

Innes Coun. Rainer Bloess said he wanted to propose city staff conduct a full-blown environmental assessment of the Bradley Estates idea, but there was no money to do it.

“Because I didn’t have the funding to do the actual study, and these studies tend to be somewhat costly ... In order to keep the issue on the table and to have some work done on it, this revamped motion accomplishes more or less the same thing, maybe not at the same speed,” Bloess said. “But it keeps it alive.”

Fathers said she would have preferred to see the original motion go forward but she was OK with Bloess’s alternative.

“However, we believe it was a logical move by councillor Bloess to keep this issue active and moving forward, given the significant cost of a study, which might have put the motion at risk of being rejected,” Yasmine Fathers wrote in an email.

The move will be beneficial because it will force city staff – which has thus far been mostly dismissive of the idea – give the proposal a thorough and formal review.

In a brief report prepared

by city staff in response to Bloess’s initial suggested motion to request funding and a full-blown environmental assessment, the councillor said city staffers “raise the red flag of the National Capital Com-

mission.”

Although the suggested route would connect the western leg of Renaud Road to Navan Road via a hydro corridor that cuts through the Greenbelt, B loess said the NCC is

not closing the door to building a new road across its land.

“The irony is, the letter from the NCC was far more positive than our (city) staff,” he said.

“The NCC welcomes opportunities to discuss future transportation initiatives which may be identified through formal processes by the city,” reads a letter from Mark Kristmanson, the chief executive officer of the NCC. The letter was sent to the Bradley Estates Community Association in August in response to the community group’s road rerouting proposal.

The city staff report reads: “Any transportation project

not identified in the (Greenbelt master plan) is highly unlikely to receive NCC approval unless it is clearly demonstrated that there would be no new net effect on the Greenbelt – of particular concern is impact on natural area linkages by facilities that primarily serve vehicular traffic only. A new alignment as suggested by this motion faces significant challenges.”

Still, those staff will be called on to give a more thorough and formal report on the Renaud Road extension idea, which would be delivered to the transportation committee in the first half of next year.

Harvest Festival becoming a favourite tradition Emma Jackson emma.jackson@metroland.com

News - As the sun sets on summer, Watsonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Mill is harvesting the last of the nice weather to host its second annual Harvest Festival.

On Saturday, Oct. 11 guests can enjoy a special treat as the mill welcomes the Orpheus Musical Theatre Society to showcase their upcoming production of Fiddler on the

Roof. The theatre troupe will perform three songs from the classical Broadway play, including its famous tune, Tradition.

It certainly fits the theme, as event organizer Melanie Parker said the festival will include traditional games and harvest activities between 11 a.m. and 3 p.m.

Families can bob for apples, enjoy a wagon ride or even gobble pie to be crowned

the 2014 ultimate pie eating champion, she said.

This yearâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s pie-eating contest features blueberry pie from the Millerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Oven, topped with whipped cream â&#x20AC;&#x153;just to make it messier,â&#x20AC;? Parker said.

Kids can also decorate cookies, play some tug of war and test their skills with a hoop and stick.

Manotick residents have long enjoyed a harvest festival every fall, but the business

improvement area stopped running it several years ago, Parker said.

Last year, staff at Watsonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Mill decided to go it alone, with the help of the Rideau Township Historical Society.

This yearâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s event will also include entertainment from Terry McGovernâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s band the Retrosonics, and staff will be busy baking buns for sale using the clay oven that students

at Manotick Public School helped make on their class trip earlier this fall.

Next door, Bill Zandbelt will set up his extensive display of hand-carved agricultural wooden toys at the Dickinson House â&#x20AC;&#x201C; a display that will stay in place all weekend.

Watsonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Mill is a unique 1860s grist and flour mill located at 5525 Dickinson St.

in Manotick. The mill has a number of fall-themed events coming up in October, including the second-annual Haunt Nights on Oct. 23 to 25, from 7 to 9:30. The mill is looking for youth volunteers to populate their haunted mill.

The mill will also host a paranormal investigation on Halloween night.

For more information call 613-692-6455.

Officer, suspect suffer minor injuries during struggle Police make arrests following recent pharmacy robbery spree Erin McCracken erin.mccracken@metroland.com

News – An Ottawa patrol officer and a robbery suspect suffered minor injuries last week after police say the suspect, who was believed to be armed and dangerous, resisted arrest.

Officers were not taking any chances while attempting to handcuff the man.

Upon closer inspection, police determined the handgun was in fact a BB gun.

“A lot of those things look absolutely (real). It’s hard to tell the difference between that and actual firearms,” said Staff Sgt. Michael Haarbosch, head of the Ottawa police robbery unit. “Some of them, they’re made to look like an actual pistol. Until you get your hands on it and actually have a close-up inspection of it, sometimes it’s hard to tell.”

A struggle broke out after two patrol officers were called to investigate an alleged drug-store robbery in the 2500-block of Bank Street on Oct. 2 at 2:55 a.m.

Investigators say the suspect, who was wearing sunglasses as well as a bandana over much of his face, brandished what appeared to be a handgun and produced a note demanding prescription drugs.

He fled with an undisclosed quantity of medication. Police declined to reveal the quantity or types of drugs taken.

Responding officers spotted their suspect running across Albion Road and nabbed him at the back of a Bank Street car dealership.

That’s when police say the suspect resisted arrest. He was taken to hospital for treatment of undisclosed injuries. The injured officer was treated at the scene by paramedics.

A 29-year-old Ottawa man is charged with wearing a disguise, robbery with an offensive weapon, possession of a weapon to commit an offence, resisting arrest, assault with intent to resist arrest, using an imitation firearm to commit an offence, two counts of breach of recognizance and two counts of possession of a scheduled substance.

victim. Police say the suspect drew a knife, demanded cash, removed the cash register and fled.

Responding officers recovered the register at a nearby building, and arrested two people at that address, including a 26-year-old man and a 30-year-old man, both of Ottawa.

The younger suspect is facing four robbery counts, three counts of wearing a disguise, possession of a weapon, possession of property obtained by crime and breach of recognizance.

The 30-year-old faces charges of accessory after the fact, possession of property obtained by crime, two counts of possession of a scheduled substance and two counts of breach of probation.

Both men were scheduled to appear in court on Oct. 6.

Anyone with information on these pharmacy robberies is asked to contact the Ottawa police robbery unit at 613-236-1222, ext. 5116, or Crime Stoppers at 1-800222-8477.

ROBBERY SPREE

Police have investigated 11 pharmacy robberies so far this year, the same number as this time in 2013.

The number this year was actually down until Sept. 25 when police began to contend with six cases in which pharmacies were targeted.

On Monday, police announced they had made an arrest in connection with four retail robberies in the recent crime spree.

In the first incident, a drug store in the 200-block of Rideau Street was robbed of prescription drugs on Sept. 25 at 10:20 a.m.

Police say the same suspect then hit a drug store in the 1500-block of Alta Vista Drive on Sept. 29 around 8:40 p.m. and fled with prescription medication.

The next day police allege the same individual went back

to Rideau Street, this time to the 500 block, and robbed a pharmacy of prescription drugs around 3:15 p.m.

He struck again on Oct. 4 at 10:10 a.m., though this time an adult store in the 400block of Rideau Street fell

Provincial rule change to allow taller wood buildings Move a construction industry ‘game-changer’, association says Laura Mueller laura.mueller@metroland.com

News - New provincial rules to allow buildings of up to six storeys to be constructed with wood will be a “game changer” for Ottawa, according to the president of the local homebuilders’ association.

John Herbert, president of the Greater Ottawa Homebuilders’ Association, said the Ontario government’s announcement on Sept. 23 that it will increase the height of buildings that can be constructed with wood frames from four to six storeys is a great idea that will increase residential density while allowing for more creative architecture.

Herbert said he anticipates a number of builders will jump on the chance to build six-storey wood-frame structures when the Building Code changes come into effect Jan. 1, 2015 – mainly because it is cheaper than concrete.

Studies show that a woodframe building costs about 15 to 20 per cent less to put up than a concrete structure, Herbert said.

STREETSCAPES

But more importantly, it will change the streetscapes in Ottawa, he said. Right now, there are very few buildings between six and 10 storeys in Ottawa because it was not economically fea-

sible to construct a building of that height and density in concrete, Herbert said.

“It’s a no-man’s land,” he said.

That cost effectiveness should translate into more affordable homes, Herbert said.

Now, builders can use wood and build a profitable project at the six-storey height, Herbert said.

He also expects the buildings will look nicer. Creating interesting and intricate facades isn’t easy with concrete buildings, which often end up looking like flat slabs, Herbert said.

Wood construction is a much more flexible material and will allow building facades to be stepped in at points to break up the fronts of buildings.

BRITISH COLUMBIA

Herbert pointed to British Columbia, where about 50 six-storey wood –frame buildings have been constructed since that province changed the law in 2009, but around 200 more have been approved or are under construction. Seattle has allowed similar building forms for 25 years, Herbert said.

Barrhaven Coun. Jan Harder, vice chairwoman of the planning committee, said allowing this new form of building will help the city “hold the line” on urban sprawl.

Harder said she could

Starting Jan. 1, homebuilders in Ontario will be allowed to construct taller wood-frame builders. The provincial government is changing the building code to allow buildings up to six storeys to be made from wood, up from four storeys. anticipate some builders coming back to the city to request rezonings for sixstorey buildings in order to “take advantage of this new form.”

“We’ll have to deal with that, but I think that the province in saying that it’s possible to do it, is going to allow us and the developers, too, who are building our communities, to make better land use,” Harder said.

“It also allows us to get the density in a different fashion, which will allow more space to possibly more pathways, more space for people to live on,” she said.

The move, which the province said is intended to

support the forestry industry, will be especially beneficial to local companies that produce pre-fabricated wood panels, Herbert said.

That’s because the panels can cut down construction times – the period when the wood buildings are most susceptible to fires, mainly arson, Herbert said. Once a modern wood-frame structure is built with sprinkler systems in place, the risk of it being destroyed by fire are quite low, he said.

Other fire-safety measures include a requirement that stairwells be made of non-combustible materials and roofs be combustion resistant.

Flash your ’stache for prostate cancer Emma Jackson emma.jackson@metroland.com

News - Whether your inspiration comes from Tom Selleck, Charlie Chaplin or Hulk Hogan, get ready to flash your ’stache this fall in support of local prostate cancer care.

The eastern Ontario prostate cancer awareness committee has launched its third annual Dare to Flash a ’Stache campaign, which raises money for prostate cancer programs at the Winchester District Memorial Hospital Foundation and the Ottawa Hospital Foundation.

Similar to the infamous “Movember” fundraiser, Dare to Flash a ’Stache asks participants to shave clean

o n Oct. 31 before spending the month of November creating their best facial coif.

Gentlemen already sporting a legendary beard, can choose instead to give their chops the chop at the campaign’s wrap-up event on Nov. 29.

The committee hopes to raise $65,000 this year, which will be split between the Winchester hospital’s

new cancer navigation program and the Ottawa Hospital’s prostate cancer research project led by Dr. Anthony Bella – the first of its kind in Canada.

Bella’s research is looking for novel ways to prevent and repair nerve damage caused by prostate cancer treatments.

In Winchester, this is the second year the committee is supporting the navigation program, which hired its first co-ordinator this summer, long-time nurse Linda Johnson.

Congratulations

The program helps patients diagnosed with cancer find the resources they need.

“When people are identified with cancer, they’re left in a cloud,” said committee co-chairman Tom Clapp, a prostate cancer survivor.

“They don’t know who to talk to, where to go. So here, when someone’s diagnosed they’ve got a contact person to help them down that road.”

MOUSTACHE MONEY

The campaign website,

flashastache. ca, is up and ready for individuals, companies and organizations to sign up and start raising funds.

The wind-up event will begin on Nov. 29 at 7 p.m. at the Joel Steele Community Centre above the Winchester arena.

Guests can cheer for their home towns at a South Dundas vs. North Dundas ladies hockey game, followed by two short games between Morrisburg Lions

alumni and Winchester Hawks alumni.

Following the hockey games, there will be a moustache judging competition and recognition for the top individual, team and fire station fundraisers.

“People are doing it for fun, and we just want to get as much awareness as possible,” Clapp said.

Along with organizing the annual moustache campaign, the committee hopes to promote its monthly prostate cancer support group, which meets in Mountain.

For more information or to get involved, call Tom Clapp at 613-774-3565 or Linda McMahon at 613774-3431.

Marguirite felt her birthday gift was lacking

R

are indeed were the times we girls of the Northcote School were ever invited to play at Marguirite’s home.

But that week nine of us, all who were in the junior grades, got little invitations handed out by Marguirite herself. They were done up with real printing, no doubt on one of those new typewriters that we read about in the Ottawa Farm Journal, and we were all invited to a party to celebrate Marguirite’s eighth birthday.

Well. This demanded a meeting at the Northcote School, let me tell you. Cora said we should all just not go. Joyce said that would be very bad manners. Velma and I said we wouldn’t miss it for the world. For days, we could talk about nothing else.

I was the only one who had ever been in Marguirite’s house, and that was a day I would be happy to forget about. I barely got my nose inside the door when Marguirite and I got into an argument, and I was hustled home in her mother’s car before I had a chance to even have a good look around. I knew for a fact there

MARY COOK Memories were electric lights and a flush toilet, because Marguirite made sure we all knew about her modern conveniences. And there I was gypped out of trying either. Imagine a flush toilet, not a little hut behind the cedar trees at the back of the house, and electric lights just like they had in the houses in Renfrew.

The party was on a Saturday, and we were all decked out in our very best clothes -- the ones we wore to church on Sundays. When we arrived on the dot, Marguirite looked like she had just stepped out of a gift box.

Her artificial curls were tight around her head and looked for all the world like little golden sausages. I could have sworn she had on lipstick and a spattering of rouge.

Her mother shook hands with us, just like the minister did after church

on Sunday, and it didn’t take long for her to get us playing games, quiet ones, like snakes and ladders and Chinese checkers, and there were prizes for the winners.

Finally, we are shuffled out of the parlour and into the dining room -- Joyce’s house was the only one I knew of which had a dining room -- the rest of us ate our meals around old pine tables in our kitchens. There was even a white table cloth spread out, and in the very centre of the table was a cake with candles, and in front of each of our plates was a little bag like Mr. Briscoe used to measure out black pepper. A gift for each of us to take home.

But before we could have our cake, Marguirite’s mother brought in all our presents and put them in front of her in a heap.

My gift seemed to be the biggest in the pile, but I had taken a heart shaped box that had once held chocolates, and arranged inside of it a lace hanky Aunt Lizzie had sent me

in the hand-me-down box. There was certainly no money for frivolities like expensive birthday presents. Even at that, I hated giving up the little hanky, the only nice one I had with real lace on it.

And the box had held little treasures I had collected, like shiny stones, my own hankie with a few pennies tied in a corner, and hair ribbons I kept for special occasions.

And there I was handing over two of my most precious possessions to a girl who did nothing but cause me anguish at the Northcote School.

Finally, she was down to my present. My sister Audrey had wrapped it in red tissue paper that had been ironed and which was once wrapped around a Christmas present. Marguirite tore into the parcel, which I thought was very extravagant indeed.

We would have saved the paper at our house.

I could tell she loved the heart shaped box, with the hand-painted face on the top. She lifted the lid and

gazed at the lace hanky, which I read immediately as pure delight. She took out the hanky, and stared at the inside of the box.

Then she said, “Where’s the chocolates?”

Her mother quickly held up the hanky and made clucking sounds of approval, while Marguirite looked at me as if I had just stolen eggs out of their chicken coop.

While the cake was doled out, Marguirite never took her eyes off me, and I had the worst urge to ask for both the hanky and the heart shaped box back. And I couldn’t wait for the party to be over.

But before we were all to head home, I decided I was going to get something out of the day besides Marguirite’s ill temper, so I went upstairs and used the flush toilet. In fact, I flushed it three or four times, and even though the sun was shining in the little window, I snapped the light switch on an off for good measure.

The Kanata Kourier-Standard published a series of articles on my business. Now everyone knows how great we are!

Dealing with Stress and Anxiety at University Darby

Renew Life Norwegian Gold Super Critical Omega

I love Renew Life Norwegian Gold Super Critical Omega because it is a high potency formula with Vitamin D in one capsule a day. The oil is contained in capsules made from fish gelatine that also contain lipase - the enzyme that helps your body break down fats, so no more unpleasant fishy burps.

Attending university can be one of the most enjoyable experiences of your life. It can also be one the most stressful. Moving away from home and being presented with exciting new social and academic situations can lead to high levels of both stress and anxiety. A survey of more than 30,000 Canadian students revealed that nearly 90% of students felt overwhelmed by everything they had on their plates in the past year, and 56% experienced overwhelming anxiety.

Here are some simple ways to proactively take care of your mental health.

Ten ways to manage stress and anxiety: 1.

Eat well.

Get exercise.

Surround yourself with love.

Make connections with your professors.

Get sufficient sleep.

Take some time to yourself.

Go outside.

Recognize and avoid stress triggers.

Explore holistic approaches.

Keep things in perspective.

Balance in your diet is particularly important. What you eat affects your energy level, attention span, memory and happiness. Likewise, exercise can be extremely helpful when you need to clear your mind or deal with that gnawing anxiety of an upcoming exam.

Even though the all-nighter is tempting, being rested does wonders for memory retention and focus levels. While procrastinating will only add to stress levels, an hour break to make yourself dinner or watch your favourite TV show can also bring a world of peace to your mind.

Try to find a place to study outdoors or go for a walk and allow yourself some fresh air and sunlight.

Days can begin to feel long and overwhelming when you spend too much time inside. Figure out what is triggering stress; maybe itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s the eerie quietness of the library or that friend that is constantly bragging about her grades. Address the trigger and learn to either avoid it or work around it.

Andalou Naturals Kukui Cocoa Body Butter The Andalou Naturals Kukui Cocoa Body Butter is my new favourite moisturizer! It is so rich, and blends essential omegas 3-6-9 with cocoa and Shea butters to soothe and soften even the driest skin. It is a fall must have, and also comes in passion fruit scent which is just as amazing!

Keep in mind that reducing anxiety doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t have to mean turning to prescription drugs. Products like those from Veeva work to calm the mind and ease away stress and anxiety using herbal ingredients. Always remember that a failed test or a bad mark does not define you as a student or person.

Dwelling on disappointment will send stress and anxiety levels soaring. For this reason, the single best thing you can do to manage stress and anxiety is to stay positive by proactively protecting yourself from feeling overwhelmed and unable to cope.

Did you Know?

- Lemon balm can help reduce stress by 72% and anxiety by 32%!

- Omega 3s, found in fish and fish oils help support cognitive health and brain function, and help promote healthy mood balance.

- Physical activity can boost endorphins and increase self-confidence.

Jessica Abela-Froese is a recent Queenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s graduate with a degree in Political Science, passionate writer, and mental health enthusiast.

Kardish will be closed for Thanksgiving Monday. From our family to yours we are wishing you a safe and happy holiday!

Spiced fritters taste best fresh Lifestyle - These crispy fritter bites are a mouthful of apple delight!

They’re best eaten right away but can be enjoyed cold or reheated. Preparation time: 25 minutes.

Total cooking time: about 20 minutes. Makes about 3 dozen.

Ingredients

• 1 litre (4 cups) vegetable oil • 375 ml (1-1/2 cups) all-purpose flour • 75 ml (1/3 cup) granulated sugar • 5 ml (1 tsp) baking powder • 2 ml (1/2 tsp) each baking soda and salt • 6 ml (1-1/4 tsp) ground cinnamon • 2 ml (1/2 tsp) ground nutmeg • 1 ml (1/4 tsp) ground cloves • 1 egg • 250 ml (1 cup) buttermilk • 15 ml (1 tbsp) vegetable oil or butter, melted • 2 ml (1/2 tsp) vanilla • 500 ml (2 cups) small diced peeled apples • 125 ml (1/2 cup) icing sugar, sifted

Preparation

In a large saucepan or deep-fryer, heat the oil over medium-high heat to about 182 C (360 F) on candy thermometer.

Reduce heat when the temperature is reached. (If you’re not ready to start frying, remove the pot from stove.)

In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, nutmeg and cloves.

In a large bowl, whisk together the egg, buttermilk, 15 ml (1 tbsp) of oil and vanilla. Stir in the apples. Stir in the flour mixture just until moistened. Using a small ice cream scoop or spoons, gently drop about 15 ml (1 tbsp) of batter into the hot oil.

Cook about seven fritters at a time, for four minutes, or until lightly browned. If needed, touch the fritters gently on top to flip them.

With a slotted spoon, remove the hot fritters to a paper towel-lined plate.

Cut one fritter open to check if it’s cooked through and adjust time or temperature. After draining about one minute, dust with icing sugar.

Lynwood daycare expands thanks to ministry funding Jennifer McIntosh

jennifer.mcintosh@metroland.com

News - The Lynwood School Age Program received a facelift this fall thanks to the Ministry of Education.

The program, which is run by the Ottawa Catholic Child Corporation, recently expanded to offer a preschool program.

Janice Cross, the Lynwood program head, said the centre added the additional spots to fill up the centre while kids are in school.

“The ministry made capital funding available for child care centres that were empty during the day because of full-day kindergarten,” she said.

According to a ministry report on the Schools-First Child Care Capital Retrofit policy released in November 2012, the funding formula is based on an average of 20 spaces per room, at an estimated cost of $4,600 per space.

The November memo said the renovations and spending should be complete by August 2015.

Lynwood’s renovations started in the 2013-14 school year.

The centre is physically the same size and nestled in the same footprint attached to Our Lady of Peace Catholic School, but an outer room was added to give the preschoolers dedicated program space. Bathrooms and change rooms were also added to accommodate the younger age group (from two to five years old). The centre also hired some new staff.

Cross said two new staff are currently in charge of the preschool program. More will be added once the program hits its capacity.

“Right now there are nine kids and we have space for 24,” she said.

“There’s space in all of our programs right now.”

Lynwood currently takes children from two-and-a-half to Grade six.

While the program runs in Our Lady of Peace, students from Bells Corners Public School students also attend the daycare.

The child care corporation is also expanding other school age programs in Barrhaven and Riverside South, Cross said.

The city’s daycare landscape is changing with a new waitlist program operated by an agency that’s independent from the city and “floating subsidies.”

Starting this year, the city’s subsidies for families requiring financial assistance with daycare costs will be attached to the family that needs it, rather than being tied to a daycare space.

Cross said she thinks it will be a great thing for quality daycares.

“It means families will get to choose a centre that suits their needs, rather than because one has a subsidized space. I think it will be good for quality daycares and force others to increase their standards a little,” she said. “It’s about time. Ottawa’s the only city in the province that doesn’t have floating subsidies.”

Nordstrom opening to help out two local charities United Way Ottawa, the Ottawa Regional Cancer Foundation to benefit Kourier-Standard Staff

News - Two local charities will be given a helping hand to Ottawa’s newest retailer.

Nordstrom Inc. announced it will celebrate the opening of its second Canadian store, which will be located at the Rideau Centre, with a benefit

to help out the United Way Ottawa and the Ottawa Regional Cancer Foundation.

The benefit and the store will take place on March 6, 2015 at 9:30 a.m.

“As a company, it has always been a priority for us to give back to the communities that we serve before we open

our doors,” said John Banks, Nordstrom Rideau Centre store manager. “We are truly impressed by the reach and impact of these organizations in Ottawa and beyond, and we couldn’t be more proud to support them through our opening gala.”

Tickets are $100 and go on sale on Nov. 19 at nordstromottawagala.com.

According to the retailer, 100 per cent of the ticket sales will be split between the two

organizations.

Funds raised at the Nordstrom gala will help support the Cancer Foundation’s cancer coaching team -- made up of health care professionals who have a background in oncology.

This team provides patients with information and practical guidance through every stage of cancer.

The United Way Ottawa will direct any money raised from the gala to Project STEP.

The organization addresses the need for substance abuse treatment, early intervention and prevention for youth.

Linda Eagen, president of the foundation, said the organization is proud to be one of the beneficiaries.

United Way Ottawa president Michael Allen echoed Eagen’s response.

“Nordstrom is active in the communities in which it operates and has built a strong reputation as a thoughtful, re-

sponsible, philanthropic partner in the retail landscape,” Allen said. “This is why United Way Ottawa is honored to partner with Nordstrom.”

Nordstrom, a fashion specialty retailer, is based in the United States.

Ticket holders will be among the first to shop at the new 14,586-square-metre store during the gala.

There will be live entertainment and a spring fashion presentation at the event.

Bridge over troubled traffic Crews begin to remove the Vanier Parkway overpass over the Queensway on Saturday, Oct. 4, as seen from the roof of the Courtyard Marriott hotel on Coventry Road. The highway was closed at the Vanier exit all weekend as a new bridge was installed using rapid replacement technology.

Pamela will be fondly remembered by her many aunts, uncles, nieces, nephews and the many friends whose lives were enhanced for having known her. A time to join Pam’s family and express support and condolences will take place at the Pilon Family Funeral Home and Chapel Ltd., 50 John Street North, Arnprior on Thursday, October 9th from 11 a.m. until a time of remembrance in the Pilon Family Chapel at 1 o’clock.

Call our Manager: Allison Jamieson 613-839-2910 for further info.

A helping hand was always found, A cold shoulder you never bared, As long as the day was had, A hard working farmer was my Dad when God came for you, that was my hardest test, Especially since he came for you during harvest, which was when we bonded best.

I miss hearing your voice and your sense of humor. But most of all I miss watching the Leaf games and laughing together.

I took for granted all the times I thought would last forever.

People said with time it would get easier.

Even though you are gone, I know you are near.

I will love you forever, my hero you’ll always be!

Love always your Mom, Cassie, Cecilia, Julia and Deb

Matt McKee, right, spars with David McCracken during the third annual Fight for Life in Hintonburg Park on Oct. 5. The fundraiser supports the Youth Services Bureau, and is organized by Les Maitres D’Armes longsword group in Ottawa. In this fight, McCracken represents Les Maitres D’Armes while McKee is from the St. Lawrence Swordfighters Guild in Kemptville. The event raised $2,160 for the Youth Services Bureau through fighters’ pledges and on-site activities.

CAT OF THE WEEK HOBO AND HIS LITTLE SIDEKICK “MIKEY” Uncle Hobo is so very gentle and caring towards this little orphan fur ball. He just took over his care and teaching him being a kitty... looking at them your heart surely will melt. A young gentlemen of about two years and a baby of 6 weeks. Vaccinated, neutered and ready for a loving family... Mikey eats on his own and is litter trained it would be so lovely if they could pack their suitcases together and travel to your home... the little tyke does not take much space LOL. They are each others “one and only love”. Make a phone call and arrange a visit they will steal your heart.

Keep track of your finances Lifestyle - If you are self-employed or a small business owner, chances are you focus much of your time on running your business, making it easy to overlook personal finances. Monitoring your personal goals is just as important as your business goals.

“Business owners are more likely to invest solely in their business, and sometimes this is necessary in order to keep the business going,” says Jason

Round, head of Financial Planning Support at RBC Financial Planning.

Round offers personal investing strategies for business owners: • Registered Retirement Savings Plan (RRSP) – an RRSP can play a key role in diversifying your net worth and provide you with exposure to different business sectors to minimize your investment risk.

• Tax-Free Savings Account (TFSA)

– is an important investment vehicle to save money for personal and business needs and minimize taxes whether for short or long-term goals.

• Succession planning – a good succession plan will help you to think about the market value of your business, making it easier to exit the business when you are ready.
