EMC news - Saunders Farm is proving that scaring is caring by raising money in memory of a former employee to help promote and celebrate acceptance. The family-fun park will be donating $5 from every admission ticket sold, for entry on Oct. 12 between 6 and 10 p.m. to the Youth Services Bureau of Ottawa (YSB) in memory of Jamie Hubley. Jamie, the son of Kanata South Coun. Allan Hubley, took his own life last year after struggling with depression and being bullied for his sexual orientation. “We want to do something to remember him in a fun way and to bring all of his friends together and anybody that wants to join us,” said Allan. “And it will go towards a good cause.” The Scaring is Caring fundraiser is all about “celebrating acceptance” and “making Jamie Hubley’s dream come true,” said the event press release. Jamie worked at Saunders Farm for two seasons as various characters on the Haunted Hayride. “Jamie really loved Saunders Farm. After he passed away last year, that’s where a whole lot of his friends and family went because we felt close to him there,” said Allan. See JAMIE on page 4

Hate graffiti rattles resident Joe Lofaro

EMC news - A Bridlewood homeowner is in shock after he came home early Saturday morning, Oct. 6, to see that someone had spray-painted “F--K NI---RS” and “KKK” on the front of his townhouse. Philippe Savoie said Ottawa police came to his house on Meadowbreeze Drive around 3:30 a.m. to investigate and are treating the incident as a hate crime. Police could not be reached for comment Monday.

A large, black X now marks the front of his garage and his front door. The left side of the garage is also littered with profanity and two front lights are covered in spray-paint. “I don’t understand,” said Savoie. “Me and my roommate, we’re really quiet people. We don’t have enemies or anything or any fights with people.” He said his roommate, who was out of town Monday, is of Pakistani descent and has brown skin. Savoie said the hate crime is very unusual because he

lives in such a family-oriented, multicultural neighbourhood and he doesn’t know why his house was the only one targeted. The incident prompted him to install a surveillance camera Sunday to monitor the front porch. “I didn¹t use to lock my door, but now, yeah,” he said. “It’s kind of angering. Everybody sees these messages now constantly and it’s just a bad reminder every time.” Savoie said he has been unsuccessful in trying to remove the graffiti so he will

call a private company to get rid of it. His next-door neighbour, Susan O’Gorman, was out of town for the weekend and was just as shocked at what she saw when she came home Monday afternoon. “That makes me very angry,” she said, reading the graffiti in disbelief. “I’m almost sorry I wasn’t here because I might have heard something.” In her six years living in the neighbourhood, she said she hasn’t seen anything like this.

Students raise $30,000 for Terry Fox Run Tenth annual event for Holy Trinity sees hundreds participate jessica.cunha@metroland.com

EMC news - Hundreds of students took to the streets of south Kanata for Holy Trinity Catholic High School’s 10th annual Terry Fox Run on Thursday, Oct. 4. Over the past decade, the school’s staff and students have raised $325,000 for the Terry Fox Foundation and this year the school added more than $30,300 to that total. “Lots and lots came in,” said organizer Sharon MacLachlan, adding the students had done a great job raising funds. Thirteen-year-olds Melanie Molian, Emma Robillard and Shannon Tisch dressed up in matching green shirts that read Terry Fox Marathon of Hope. All three were running for their friend Anton, who passed away from cancer. “We went to school with him,” said Melanie. Principal Jennifer Oake told the students, ranging in grades from 7 to 12, that she was proud of them for their efforts. “You came together as a family and a community,” she said. Some of the students got into the spirit, dressing up in

various costumes. Ariane Poserio, 13, stuck a gator mask on her head, while 12-yearold Ayla Suprey decked herself out in a full-body green spandex suit. Kanata South Coun. Allan Hubley was on hand to issue some words of encouragement to the students. “I want to thank you so much,” he told them, adding he was pleased to see so many students taking part. Mary Blais’ Grade 7 class had the honour of cutting the ribbon and signaling the start of the run for the junior grades, having raised the highest per-student amount. Paul Voisin’s class kicked it off for the grades 9 to 12 run. Students walked and ran the route, which took them down Terry Fox Drive, up Castlefrank Road and back to the school. A barbecue lunch, along with entertainment by Kanata-based band Keek, capped off the run. “Each year, this event grows in size. During last year’s national event, more than one and a half million students from close to 4,000 schools in Ontario alone, walked for Terry Fox,” said Oake in a letter to parents. “We are so grateful for the solid support you have always shown for this event.”

City seeks public input on renaming park Staff

EMC news - The city is looking for the public’s input on renaming a park in north Kanata after an influential member of the community. The commemorative naming committee is considering naming a park located at 1190 Second Line Rd. after Louis Turner for his contributions to the community. Turner started the first youth hockey team in the former March township. In the early 1960s, he introduced an organized team for local boys called the Kanata Chiefs, and

later, the Kanata Iroquois. Turner coached, managed, mentored, and chauffeured the young, aspiring hockey players. The city is also looking at renaming a trail in Sheila McKee Park, located at 1730 Sixth Line Rd., after Martha Webber. Webber is an active and long-serving member of the March Rural Community Association, advocates for the conservation of nature and educates her community on local ecology. Webber has hosted a number of nature walks through

the South March Highlands. To view the proposals for Louis Turner Park and Martha Webber Trail, visit ottawa.ca. Comments for all proposals must be received no later than 4:30 p.m. on Dec. 4.

Botanist Martha Webber shows a group of hikers which plants along the path are edible during a 2010 hike in the South March Highlands. The city is seeking public input to rename a trail in West Carleton after Webber, as well as a Kanata park after Louis Turner. File photo

“It was a place where kids could be themselves and have fun…that was very important to Jamie.” Saunders Farm held a fundraiser in Jamie’s name last year, raising $5,000 for the YSB. Allan said the goal is to match or beat that amount. “We’re hoping with the support of the community we can

do that or more this year,” he said. “I really hope everybody can find the time to join us and celebrate Jamie’s life with us.” So far this year, $800,000 has been raised in Jamie’s name for the YSB, CHEO and the Royal Ottawa Hospital. “We’re very honoured by that and appreciate folks contributing to making sure that no other kids have to make that awful decision that Jamie made,” said Allan.

Students flash mob Bridlewood school jessica.cunha@metroland.com

EMC news - The afternoon recess at Bridlewood Community Elementary School started out like any other on Wednesday, Oct. 3 – students were running around the yard, some were tossing a football while others played in the sand. Then all of a sudden Flo Rida’s Good Feeling started blasting out of loud speakers. The intermediate students in the yard came together in a perfect harmony of hiphop dance moves. Partway through, the flash mob grew as the junior students jumped in, taking up the fluid steps as the speakers belted out “Oh, oh, sometimes I get a good feeling.” More than 300 grades 1 through 8 students were smiling, laughing and dancing to the rhythm of the song, when to their surprise, the teachers got in on the act. Then, as quickly as it started, everyone dispersed and went back to their previous activities. “It was fantastic,” said dance teacher Deb Cameron, who put the whole flash mob together. “They all came in when they were supposed to.” FLASH MOB

The flash mob idea came about to help introduce the students to dance and get them pumped about the hiphop unit. “This will really cement the

buy-in to the dance (class),” said Cameron, who has a dance background in ballet, jazz and hip hop. “I just decided it would be a fun way to get everyone together.” Now in her 19th year at Bridlewood Community, Cameron went about teaching the dance steps to the grades 1 through 8 classes. The students thought they were going to surprise all their teachers with a flash mob – but the real shock came when the teachers jumped right into the dance.

“That’s part of the whole surprise element,” said Cameron. “The kids think the teachers don’t know.” The students were bundles of energy after the mob dispersed, talking excitedly about what had just happened and how well it all went. A number of them ran up to Cameron to hug and thank her for putting the dance together. “I’m just proud of the kids for the work they did,” said Cameron. “I’m pleased they put in the effort.”

SUPPORT

Tabrizi said friends and strangers alike are sharing their stories of cancer with her

since she announced she’ll be going bald. “It’s been really heartwarming,” she said. “The sad truth is a lot of people have been affected by it. “Sharing stories – it brings people together.” Aside from raising funds, she said she’s hoping to raise awareness as well. The Canadian Cancer Society has been in touch with her and offered to send a representative to the event on Nov. 10, which is set to be held in her family home. The cancer society helped her family by providing information and connections when her mother was ill. “Throughout they’ve been supportive,” said Tabrizi. She added that she will shave the initials or company logo of the highest bidder into her scalp after lopping off her locks. “I know the money is going to a very good cause.” For more information, email bspringt@hotmail.com or visit the website at convio. cancer.ca/goto/B_for_bald to donate.

EMC news - A Bridlewood woman is going bald to raise funds for cancer research. Bahareh Tabrizi lost her mother, Rafat, to brain cancer 11 years ago. Diagnosed on Nov. 10, 2000, Rafat succumbed to the illness after 18 “long, hard months of fighting,” said Tabrizi. “I experienced with her the awful treatments, hair loss, bone loss, fractured spine, nausea…I would not wish it on my worst enemy.” Tabrizi said she got the idea to shave her head and raise money after seeing an episode of the Ellen DeGeneres Show. Female country artist Kellie Pickler was a guest on the show and had shaved her head in support of a friend. “I’ve always done various fundraisers to raise money for cancer, but it’s been a matter of a couple of hundred dollars for this run, another couple of hundred for this walk. I’ve always wanted to do more,” said Tabrizi. “So I thought, ‘well, what do I have lots to give?’ Not money. Not really too much time…Well, I have lots of hair; lots and lots of thick hair.”

which makes wigs for children undergoing cancer treatment. “It’s the least I could do; it’s just hair. It grows back,” said Tabrizi. “I have a choice. I’m making it. I’m not watching it fall out.” Tabrizi said it was tough to see her mother lose her hair when she was going through cancer treatment. “My mom was very pristine,” she said, adding although the loss of her mother’s hair was “the least of her struggles,” it was still difficult to process. However, the battle with the disease and the subsequent illnesses that came with treatment – such as nausea and osteoporosis, which ended in Rafat suffering seven fractures in her spine – was worse, said Tabrizi. “It was a really long and horrendous struggle,” she said.

Preparing for Ottawaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s vital green-bin change

hances are your garbage day is changing Oct. 29. If itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not, youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re still going to have to get used to differences in the way trash is collected. For one thing, garbage will only be picked up every two weeks, while green bin materials will be collected weekly. Just shy of 160,000 households will soon get a letter telling them their garbage day is changing and letting them know that text message, email

and Twitter alerts are available for residents by signing up on the cityâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s collection calendar web page. Typically, changing the way someoneâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s trash is collected is enough to start a public uproar. Residents were unusually quiet last year when the city held public meetings about waste collection, but you can expect the outcry to get louder as the date of the changes draws closer. But we hope that cooler

heads prevail. Is taking out a green bin instead of a garbage bag every week such an onerous task? The benefits of diverting that recyclable organic waste away from the landfill cannot be overstated. Closing a landfill and finding somewhere else to bury our garbage would be the most expensive thing this city would ever have to do, other than the light-rail project. Currently, 42 per cent of

household waste is diverted from the landfill through green, blue and black bin recycling. The switch would push the cityâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s organics diversion rate up by 50 per cent (about 40,000 tonnes), incrementally closer to the cityâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s goal of 60 per cent before the waste collection contract is renewed in 2016. Places like Sweden have loftier goals. That country already diverts 80 per cent of its waste away from landfills.

Complaints about the â&#x20AC;&#x153;messâ&#x20AC;? of green bins abound, but we have to wonder if those people realize that messy waste would still have to go into their garbage bags if they chose not to put it in their green bin. For every person who has given up on recycling organic waste because they found maggots in their bin, there is another person who has never faced that problem because they learned to freeze meat waste and put it into the bin on

pickup day. The cityâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s website, ottawa.ca/greenbin, is full of other common-sense tips to make the process cleaner and easier. Starting Oct. 29, people who choose to put their organic waste in the trash instead of the green bin will just have an extra week for it to decompose and cause odour. Or, they can simply put it into a different bin. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s just a matter of being willing to adapt.

COLUMN

Our civic gambling addiction CHARLES GORDON Funny Town

ew irritations are added to our lives every day. The latest is the fact that lottery tickets are on sale virtually everywhere and everywhere you go people in front of you are buying lottery tickets, while you wait and wait. Youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve got a magazine or chocolate bar or a package of razor blades to pay for and you canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t do it because the guy in front of you keeps buying tickets and winning more tickets and buying more tickets and winning again. The guy could be spending his money on something that could be improving the quality of his familyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s life. Then he wouldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t be standing at the cash clogging things up for everybody else. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Winner! Gagnant!,â&#x20AC;? the machine keeps exclaiming, way too cheerfully, while he keeps buying more tickets with his â&#x20AC;&#x153;winningsâ&#x20AC;? and while you mutter under your breath about the decline of civilization and wonder if you should start ordering your razor blades online. In such small ways does gambling make life miserable for innocent bystanders. People are addicted to lottery tickets; stores are addicted to selling them. But before you spend too much time condemning these clients of the gambling industry, take a minute to look at whoâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s setting the example for them. Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s right. Our governments â&#x20AC;&#x201C; as hooked on gambling as the unsmiling slot-machine feeders you see in the casinos. Exhibit A: The mayor of Ottawa and the city council â&#x20AC;&#x201C; or at least most members of it â&#x20AC;&#x201C; drooling over the prospect of a big shiny casino being located downtown somewhere (and just inciden-

tally helping to doom the horse racing industry when the slots are taken away from the race track). The mayor and council could be spending time, not to mention money, on ways to improve the lives of their constituents. Think of infrastructure, roads that donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t cave in, neighbourhoods that work, transit, traffic congestion. Instead, they are standing at the counter, waiting for the lottery ticket to pay off. Carrying the metaphor to its logical conclusion, taxpayers are the ones behind the counter making the decision. Is the casino a winner or not? We can decide that, either by encouraging the mayorâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s casino dream or by frightening him off it. The final council decision will take quite a bit of time and the mayor did not get where he is today by not listening to people. So the question is, does the casino pay off for us? How does it pay off? Do tourists flock to Ottawa? Remember that some casinos in border cities have been doing badly. Do customers of the casino in Gatineau flock back? Do the customers drop big money in local restaurants and stores or do they just stay in the casino? Are there big tax revenues to be had? Are casinos an adornment to the downtown landscape or a drag on it? No one actually knows. All we really know is that gambling addiction is on the rise, with lots of social costs and that a new casino is certainly not going to reduce those. We have learned, from years of watching the industry develop, that there is nothing classy about casinos. We know that casinos are not really for the high-end, fashionably dressed tourists you see in the advertisements. They are also for people who canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t afford to gamble. Are we doing those people a favour by making it more convenient for them to lose their money? Are we doing the city a favour by doing this? Those questions donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t seem to concern the mayor and most of the councillors as they stand at the counter waiting for the machine to tell them they are winners, while the rest of us stand impatiently behind wanting them to move on and do something useful.

anada has no abortion law. I find this troubling. In 1969, the Liberal government of Pierre Trudeau decriminalized abortion. Abortions could occur, providing a committee of doctors deemed it necessary for a woman’s health. In 1988, the Supreme Court ruled that caveat within the law was unconstitutional and cancelled the law, ultimately punting it back to Parliament to create a new law. Parliament never did, so Canada has no abortion law. All Canada has is a definition of child, which states that a child is not considered a human being until it has exited the womb. Unlike other Western countries, which have determined restrictions on abortion – including gestational age limits – in Canada, it is perfectly legal for a woman to abort a baby at full-term, rather than to deliver it. Because it’s a woman’s right.

There’s something wrong with this. Two weeks ago, Conservative MP Stephen Woodworth put forth a motion asking to strike a parliamentary committee to review the definition of child under Canadian law. The motion was defeated. What followed was a media frenzy, pouncing on the “right-wing Christian Conservatives” in Harper’s cabinet – including Rona Ambrose, minister for the Status of Women, who evidently wanted to “strip away women’s reproductive rights in Canada.” A poster circulated widely on social media sites stated, “Canada’s Minister for the Status of Women just voted to criminalize abortion.” Mainstream media outlets claimed the Conservatives were “re-opening the abortion law debate in Canada.” Evidently, people failed to read the nuance of this story. For one thing, Canada has no abortion law – we have a vacuum -- so “re-opening the

perhaps it’s because they have stronger convictions. If pro-choice representatives in Parliament feel so strongly about women’s rights, let them be brave enough to raise the issue in the House, fill the vacuum, create a law and put the issue to bed once and for all.

abortion law debate” is a misnomer. For another, Ambrose voted in favour of striking a committee to re-examine the definition of child under the law, which is hardly a vote to criminalize abortion. Finally, as far as I can tell, we’ve never had a debate on abortion in this country, at least not since the 1960s – and certainly not within the lifetimes of women who would currently be affected by such a discussion. In the interest of full disclosure, I qualify as neither anti-abortion nor pro-choice. I’ve always been rather wishy-washy on the subject of abortion. On the one hand, I think women should have some say on whether or not to carry a baby to term, particularly in cases where there has been abuse or where a woman is not positioned to care for a baby for a wide variety of reasons and of course where there is a medical reason. I’ve supported slightly less than a handful of girlfriends as they’ve made the choice to abort or not and I like to think I’ve done so without judgment. I’ve also been a consistent supporter of stem cell research. On the other hand, having been through three pregnancies myself and all the ultrasounds and prenatal testing

Race day raises more than $80K Jessica Cunha jessica.cunha@metroland.com

EMC news - More than 1,000 people faced the chilly wind and drizzling rain to run the track at the Rideau Carleton Raceway on Sunday, Sept. 30, to raise funds for brain cancer research and put an end to the deadly disease. The inaugural South Ottawa Race Day raised more than $80,000 as of midday on Sunday.

â&#x20AC;&#x153;We were completely overwhelmed by the communityâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s response,â&#x20AC;? said Chris Hill, one of the organizers. â&#x20AC;&#x153;This particular disease touches a lot of people. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I think the brain cancer community was looking for a voice and I think they found it in this race. There were a whole bunch of people who had stories to tell. It was unbelievable, the number of people who had been affected and were looking for a way to

get involved, and the way they rallied around this common story.â&#x20AC;? Barrhaven resident Leslie McCarthy was honoured during the closing ceremonies for raising $5,200, the most by an individual. McCarthy didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t know Greely resident Heather Geddie, who was the catalyst for the event, but was driven to do her part after being diagnosed with thyroid cancer just a few weeks before the race.

‘We were completely overwhelmed by the community’s response’ Provost, who is undergoing a battle similar to Geddie’s, said “it was wonderful to see all the beautiful people.” Geddie’s parents, Don and Pat White, said it was incredible that their daughter inspired such an event. “She would be overjoyed,”

said Don. “She will help us find a cure.” Hill said he hopes the South Ottawa Race Day becomes “one of the key events in the Ottawa race series, and that runners start to mark it in their calendars.” The original fundraising goal of the inaugural race was set at $50,000, a number

that was quickly surpassed thanks to the efforts of all those involved. A new target of $75,000 was also exceeded, with the total coming in at more than $80,000 in funds raised. “This will allow us to support innovative research,” said Hill. “What came across loud and clear is that there are really

EMC news - Brian McConaghyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s life was changed by a little girl he never met. After being shelled and shot at on the Thai-Cambodian bor-

countryâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s child sex trade. But it wasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t that experience that led the forensic scientist with the RCMP to start Ratanak, the international charity that now rescues children who have been sold to pimps and brothels. It was the horror of watching seven young girls getting raped on video that forced him into action. McConaghy had been working on the Willy Pickton prostitute murder file when he was asked by the Vancouver city police department to watch a series of videos and aid in the investigation. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I could walk away from the statistics of human trafficking,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;But I couldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t walk away from that. It changed me forever.â&#x20AC;? McConaghy found five of the seven girls he saw in the videos and brought them into the Ratanak fold. He couldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t identify one child and one is still in the sex trade, but he said

by the womenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s group at St. Leonardâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Parish in Manotick. Organizer Sandy Russell said they had 240 women turn out this year. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I think this cause resonates with women...we feel for the children,â&#x20AC;? she said. Russell, whose husband serves in the RCMP like McConaghy, said she has been to Cambodia and saw the organization at work. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I was blown away,â&#x20AC;? she said. McConaghy said there is hope to get the country turned around, but the political climate had a lot to do with fostering what he calls a haven for international pedophiles. In April 1975, a communist revolution decimated the countryâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s population. McConaghy said more than 3 million of the countryâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s 7.5-million population were killed during the uprising. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Basically anyone with more than a Grade 3 education was killed,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a reason that they call it the Killing Fields.â&#x20AC;? The killings caused families to be torn apart, producing a generation that didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t know how to be parents. â&#x20AC;&#x153;There was a lot of domestic violence with children subsisting by eating garbage off the streets,â&#x20AC;? McConaghy said. Many of the children sold into the sex trade are sent there by their families. They are started in the brothels as young as five. Because it is believed that having sex with a virgin has rejuvenating powers, their first clients pay an exorbitant sum to keep them in a hotel and have sex with them for a week. Then they are used goods and their value drops dramatically. In some cases the girls only earn $2 per customer. â&#x20AC;&#x153;There was no police, no judicial system and no family unit, so itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a perfect storm for the child sex trade,â&#x20AC;? McConaghy said. The New Song Centre, named for two girls who were rescued, basically abducts young girls from the brothels in order to save them from sex work. See ROCK on page 15

Rock The Chains for Ratanak taking place in Kanata Continued from page 14

While McConaghy showed slides of the centre, he reminded the audience that he couldn’t show the front of the building as the address is secret to protect the girls. “The girls are product. We essentially have to steal them from the brothels. It’s no different than stealing cocaine from a dealer,” McConaghy said. Ratanak staff start working with girls before they rescue them. McConaghy said it’s tough to spend the day playing with little girls only to go back to your hotel knowing they are being assaulted. “They are just like other kids except they can’t sit down because of the abuse the night before,” he said. “Then you finish playing and they get painted up and ready for work.” Once rescued, girls are accepted into a Ratanak group home and led in a ceremonial dance by other rescued girls. For some it is the first time they get a bed of their own, not shared with other girls and middle-aged men. “Most of the time the girls are afraid of us. They think if we were able to steal them we are more powerful then the men who… raped them. They need the other girls to tell them they are finally safe.” Once there, the healing be-

gins. There are currently 54 girls at the New Song Centre and 61 workers are on hand to deal with their complex emotional, physical and mental needs. “These girls are just ruined,” McConaghy said. “We are not talking about one or two sexual assaults, we are talking about thousands.” Girls are taught they are valued and given skills so they can work and make money without selling their bodies. They actually bake cakes – what McConaghy said were the best in Asia – for the country’s upper crust. “These are kids that were told they are lower than dirt making cakes for the royal family and diplomats,” he said. “It really helps with their self worth.” And the country is slowly recovering. The University of Phnom Penh finally has a social work program and the government is co-operating with Ratanak’s efforts. “The ministry of social services is now putting us through the ringer making sure our programs are properly structured and I couldn’t be more pleased,” McConaghy said. Here in Canada Manitoba MP Joy Smith has been working on changing Canadian law to deal with human trafficking. Her son worked with the integrated child exploitation unit

led by the RCMP, which gave her insight into a world she didn’t know existed. “Often the pimps will brand their victims,” she said. “And these kids are just ruined. But they can be brought back.” The Conservative MP was the driving force behind Bill C-310 – which gives the Canadian government the authority to go after Canadian citizens or permanent residents who commit human trafficking offences abroad. “It sends a clear message we won’t tolerate it,” she said. McConaghy ended his talk with the story of a group of young girls who testified against a former U.S. Marine captain who had moved to Cambodia and bought seven young girls. He was arrested and brought up on molestation charges in the States, but the girls – who had been rescued by Ratanak – had to travel there to testify. “They had to fly and when they got off the plan they were surrounded by white males. They were terrified. But they all got up on the stand and testified for a grueling five hours,” McConaghy said. “After that we took them on a VIP tour of Disneyland.” The captain was given a prison sentence of 110 years. “I can live with that,” McConaghy said. He continues to search for the last girl he saw being raped

in the series of videos from the Vancouver police. “There’s still work to do,” he said. Ratanak is hosting Rock

The Chains on Saturday, Oct. 13, a 12-hour fundraiser featuring 100 youth and 100 rocking chairs at the Kanata Baptist Church, located at 465

Hazeldean Rd. Registration begins at 10 a.m. and McConaghy is scheduled to speak at 11 a.m. Kanata-based band Open Sky will provide live entertainment, as well as To Tell and Joe Larmer. For more information, visit ratanak.org. 0510.R0011388258

Miss Crosby prepares students for the world Limited time offer!

Mary Cookâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Memories the bane of my existence. Marguirite never did anything bad enough to warrant the strap, but she aggravated the daylights out of me, mostly because she was the only one in her family and had the best of everything. She had a real leather school bag, for instance and a tin box for her lunch, items that were deemed luxuries at the time. About once a year, just about every family in the community would have the teacher overnight on a weekend. That meant of course, that she would attend church with the family on the Sunday and it didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t matter what church they attended, the teacher was expected to go with them. So Miss Crosby could be at a United church one week and at a Lutheran one the next. What a thrill it was to have the teacher over for the night. The house would have a cleaning from top to bottom, just like it got in the spring or fall. Floors upstairs and downstairs were scrubbed, the kitchen was spotless and bedclothes were all fresh off the line. There would also be plenty of food

on the table. Of course, when it was our turn to host the teacher, she couldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t be expected to walk the five-and-a-half kilometres my brothers and sister and I had to trudge to and from school. No, Father would take the buggy in the summer and the cutter in the winter to fetch her to our old log house. That weekend, I felt so smug. I knew for a fact that Marguirite had asked Miss Crosby at least three or four times during the school year to go to her home for the weekend. But Miss Crosby wouldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t dream of that. No, everything was fair and square with Miss Crosby. Marguirite would constantly bring a treat to school for the teacher. This time of year it would be an apple. Often Miss Crosby would have /an apple every day from the little girl with the drug-store-bought curls and I would watch to see what the teacher would do with it. I never saw her eat the apple, but it would be taken home with her and I liked to think she maybe threw it away

iss Crosby was fair to a fault, yet she stood for no nonsense. Most of the boys in Senior Fourth at Northcote School were a couple heads taller than she was, but she had no trouble handing out discipline to any of them when the need arose. We all had a healthy fear of Miss Crosby, including Cecil and my brother Emerson, both of whom seemed to attract trouble like ants to a plate of honey. The strap that hung on the side of her desk from a cup hook was a constant reminder that if anyone stepped out of line, she would use it in a split second. When she did, the whack was enough to raise her off her feet. So needless to say, just looking at the black leather demon was enough to keep us on our best behaviour. Back then the teacher was right up there in importance with the family doctor or the member of Parliament and each was treated with the utmost respect. Miss Crosby was lucky to live in the community, not like some rural teachers who had to â&#x20AC;&#x153;room and boardâ&#x20AC;? at one of the local farms. She could walk to school. She also had the patience of a saint. Marguirite was enough to try anyoneâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s patience, but Miss Crosby knew exactly how to handle the girl who was

Secret to making the ultimate peach cake

Celebrating Acceptance

everal years ago, I featured a recipe in my column for a cake made with peach pie

Help make Jamie Hubley's dream come true.

filling. In less than a week, supermarkets and grocery stores from Brockville to Ottawa were completely sold out of peach pie filling. As a result of it being so hard to find, I developed a recipe for a quick, homemade peach pie filling to use in the cake. It’s not as convenient as the canned version, but it has more peaches and less sugar. ULTIMATE PEACH CAKE

Please join Jamie's family & friends between 6pm & 10pm on Friday, October 12th, 2012 at Saunders Farm for

• 1 white cake mix • 1 can (540 ml) peach pie ﬁlling or use the recipe below • 4 eggs, beaten • 1 1/4 tsp. almond extract • 1 tbsp. amaretto liqueur

The Saunders Farm family will donate $5 from every admission ticket sold either pre-sale online or at the admission booth at the farm on the 12th, with proceeds going to the Youth Services Bureau of Ottawa.

Ignore the directions on the cake mix package. The batter does not need any other liquids. Butter and lightly flour either a Bundt pan or a 23-by33-centimetre cake pan. In a large mixing bowl, stir together the cake mix, pie filling, eggs, flavouring and liqueur if you’re using it. Use a spoon, not an electric mixer, to mix the batter.

PAT TREW Food ‘n’ Stuff Stir until thoroughly combined, about two minutes. If the peaches in the pie filling are in large slices, break them into smaller pieces with the spoon. Spread the batter evenly in the prepared pan, and bake at 325 F (160 C) for about 35 minutes. Check with a toothpick to make sure the cake is done. If not, bake for another five minutes and test again. When the cake is done, remove it from the oven, and let it cool for five minutes. If you used a Bundt pan, turn the cake out on a rack. If you used a 23-by-33-centimetre pan, leave the cake in the pan. Cool completely before serving. This cake is very moist and doesn’t need icing. If you want to serve it with something else, a dollop of whipped cream is nice. PEACH FILLING

• 398 ml can of peaches, either

slices or halves, in their own juice • water (see directions below for the amount) • 1/4 cup ﬂour If you can’t find canned peach pie filling, here’s how to make a homemade version. Drain the canned peaches, reserving the juice in a measuring cup. Add enough water to make one cup of liquid. Combine the liquid with the flour in a small plastic container with a tight-fitting lid. Cover, hold the lid firmly and shake well. Pour this into a small saucepan. Cook the mixture, over medium heat, for three to five minutes, stirring constantly, until it thickens into a sauce. Cool completely. While the sauce cools, cut the peaches into pieces about the size of a walnut. When the sauce is cool, stir in the peaches. Use this mixture, instead of the canned pie filling, in the cake recipe.

City council set to roll the dice on bringing casino to Ottawa Full city council would also have to endorse the move on Oct. 10, after this newspaper’s deadline. While the mayor spent the week before the Oct. 2 meeting insisting he would prefer to see a casino downtown with access to transit, he backed a motion from Osgoode Coun. Doug Thompson to ensure the Albion Road racetrack is automatically considered for expansion into a casino. But the mayor couched his support of the raceway motion by saying it “sends a very clear signal that we’re not asking for preferential treatment, we’re asking for fairness.” Rideau-Carleton will celebrate its 50th birthday this fall and has been home to 1,275 slot machines for the past 12 years. It faces closure after OLG decided to cancel its slots at the racetrack program. Alex Lawryk, a representative for the raceway owners, said Rideau-Carleton intends to put in a bid to expand its facility into a casino. “We are also ready to propose a compelling gaming model and program …to continue to serve Ottawa in a responsible manner,” Lawryk told the committee. OLG kicked off the debate in August by indicating it wants to “modernize” gambling in Ontario, including a plan to find private developers to build casinos in each of 29 zones across the province. OLG will be asking for proposals from potential casino developers early in 2013. The OLG hasn’t said what the revenue-sharing agreement would be for new casinos or how much Ottawa

– or another eastern-Ontario municipality – could stand to gain from welcoming a casino. The city receives about $4 million a year in revenue from the raceway slots, but the province is cancelling that program. Despite the support of the mayor and all but one of the city councillors on the finance committee, almost all of the 32 members of the public who spoke to the committee on Oct. 2 said the push for a casino was too hasty and not based on any evidence of the potential benefits – or consequences – of a new casino in Ottawa. Adam Awad questioned why the committee would consider approving the idea of a casino before receiving any evidence for or against it. Watson said city council needs to decide whether it wants to head down that road before it charges staff with researching the impacts and benefits of a casino. Liam Mooney, spokesperson for a new casino-focused community group called A Better Bet, said the group is most concerned that the process is being rushed. “This matters to people. You need to consider what people are saying,” Mooney said. “Take the time. Do not rush into this.” A couple delegates were in

ital, both at the slots at Rideau Carleton Raceway, and at Lac Leamy Casino across the river in Gatineau – not to mention lottery ticket sales and even church bingos, he said. Repatriating some casino revenue that currently goes to the Quebec government through Lac Leamy would boost gambling addiction treatment in Ontario and add money to the city’s coffers to help pay for things like infrastructure renewal, Watson said. The mayor emphasized that the Oct. 10 decision would merely kick off the process, and there will be ample opportunity for public input and research as the process moves forward.

favour of pursuing a casino, including Noel Buckley of Ottawa Tourism. “Increasing the variety of attractions in the city… will help attract more visitors,” he said. Longtime casino critic Gloucester-Southgate Coun. Diane Deans was the only committee member to oppose the move. “I don’t like being asked to support something in principle without having the evidence,” she said, pointing out that all public delegates without a financial stake in the matter opposed an Ottawa casino. But Watson said the “horse is already out of the stable” on that argument, because gambling already exists in the cap-

Mental health clicks for college students Nevil Hunt nevil.hunt@metroland.com

EMC news - Mental health challenges don’t always turn up during office hours, so Algonquin College has turned to the Internet to connect students with help. “Ottawa is well-served by mental health resources,” said the manager of the school’s counselling services, Jeff Agate. “But if it’s 2 a.m. on Saturday night, students can’t use the

services on campus.” Agate said the students’ association identified the gap and paid for access to the website ICopeU.com/Algonquin, which went live shortly before an Oct. 2 launch event at the college. “It’s built by young people, for young people,” Agate said, adding it’s “loud and busy” to help it catch students’ attention. The college also brought in musician Steven Page as a guest speaker and he shared his own story of mental challenges

during his youth. “If you’re feeling panicked or lost or whatever else you’re feeling, if it’s something that is confusing you, take it seriously,” Page said. College students must deal with many pressures that go beyond getting good marks. Many are away from home for the first time, dealing with housing and financial challenges. Algonquin president Kent MacDonald quoted a statistic that suggests many college stu-

dents will need assistance as they go through school. “Up to 21 per cent of people 15 to 24 years old struggle with some type of mental challenge,” MacDonald said. He said Algonquin can’t simply count “how many people come through the door” and consider it successful. “The time has come to be more engaged,” MacDonald said. In addition to the website, the college has committed to a new online course for all faculty so professors can help identify students who may need assistance. The training has been developed in partnership with the Canadian Mental Health Association. NEVIL HUNT/METROLAND

Steven Page performs the song Brian Wilson during a visit to Algonquin College on Oct. 2. Page, formerly of the Barenaked Ladies, helped launch a website to connect students with mental health resources 24 hours a day.

With our right hand over our hearts, we belted out God Save the King. Even those who couldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t carry a note in a sloppail were expected to sing. Miss Crosby was high on manners. It didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t matter who

came to the door at Northcote School, we were expected to get out of our seats, noiselessly of course and stand at attention until told to sit down. If it was the inspector, Miss Crosby would introduce him and we had to say, â&#x20AC;&#x153;good morningâ&#x20AC;? or â&#x20AC;&#x153;good afternoonâ&#x20AC;? and repeat

the inspectorâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s name. When Mother said Miss Crosby was a saint, I believed her. Her salary was only a few hundred dollars a year and Mother said she earned every cent of it.

Promoting cycling for all at Oct. 16 meeting EMC news - Citizens for Safe Cycling’s annual general meeting on Oct. 16. will feature a well-known professor, Ralph Buehler, speaking on the topic of making cycling irresistible. The meeting will take place

at Tom Brown Arena, 141 Bayview Rd. in Hintonburg. Speakers will begin at 6:45 p.m. Buehler is an assistant professor in urban affairs and planning and a faculty fellow with the Metropolitan Institute

at Virginia Tech’s Alexandria Center. Sponsored by the German Embassy, Buehler’s talk will emphasize that cycling shouldn’t be limited to those who are very fit, trained and “daring enough to battle traffic

on busy roads.” His talk will focus on taking lessons from Europe and North America about co-ordinating infrastructure, programs and government policies to ensure successful cycling promotion. He will describe ways to make cycling feasible, convenient and safe for daily commutes, from shopping trips to work or

school commutes. Trinity-Spadina NDP MP Olivia Chow, wife of the late federal NDP leader Jack Layton, will speak about her private member’s bill pushing for transport truck side guards to protect cyclists from being pulled under trucks. The meeting will begin with a 6 p.m. meet and greet at the arena.

Speakers will take the stage at 6:45 p.m., followed by a re-cap of the year’s activities and achievements beginning at 8:30 p.m. The event is free, but those who wish to attend are asked to register online at www.safecycling.ca so the group can anticipate how many people to expect.

Algonquin supports 3-year degree proposal Jennifer McIntosh

jennifer.mcintosh@metroland.com

EMC news - David Corson, president of the Algonquin College Students’ Association said three-year degree programs at Ontario’s colleges could help recent grads from getting kicked out of job competitions with the federal government. “We have advanced diploma programs, but the problem is there is no term for that at the federal level, so applicants get kicked out in the first round because the pool is automated to look for degrees,” he said. Colleges Ontario released a report on Oct. 4 that shows many of the three-year-programs in the province’s 24 colleges already meet the standards for baccalaureate education. “Giving colleges the authority to offer three-year degrees will provide an important new option to students,” Linda Franklin, the president of Colleges Ontario said in a press release. “In most of the world, a student completing the same program would graduate with a degree.” The report, entitled Empowering Ontario: Transforming Higher Education in the 21st Century, says many

students are interested in career-focused programs at colleges but they want a degree. Corson said the standards in Ontario for post-secondary education are very high and allowing three-year degrees at colleges would in no way diminish the title. “It wouldn’t work for all programs, but there are a lot where it would make sense,” he said. FACULTY

The Algonquin faculty agrees with College Ontario’s findings. “We believe offering a degree to those who complete a three-year program will make our students more competitive as they enter the job market,” Claude Brulé, vice-president at Algonquin, said. The college currently offers 26 advanced diploma programs. Brulé said staff is looking at which of those could be converted to threeyear degree programs and which new programs could be offered as three-year degrees. He dismissed the notion that colleges are trying to be more like universities, saying the proposal gives students who learn better in an applied environment equal opportunities.

Civic art gallery exhibition focuses on texture Jessica Cunha

jessica.cunha@metroland.com

EMC news - Texture and colour will be the focus of the Kanata Civic Art Gallery’s newest exhibition, which features two north Kanata artists. Beaverbrook’s Judi Miller uses a mixture of painting and embroidery to create her pieces, while Lynne Morin from Kanata Lakes uses a technique she’s dubbed fibre art. Both women’s work – which will be featured until Nov. 10 – leaps off the canvas and draws the eye thanks to the three-dimensional effects they create. Morin began as a traditional quilter and realized she had a passion for painting about 10 years ago. “I love texture and colour so fabric always seemed to work for me,” said Morin, who joined the Kanata Civic Art Gallery this year. “I also was getting into painting. That’s why I’ve combined the two, the painting and the fibre.” Her first show with the Kanata gallery, she said she’s excited and nervous to hear people’s reactions. “I’ve never done that kind of a show where I’ve put my work out there,” said Morin, who will also be participating in the Ottawa Art Gallery’s Christmas show, which runs from Nov. 10 to Jan. 19. “It’s easier to be a secluded artist…When you’re out there trying to sell, it’s scarier.” She added that a private volunteer group for the National Gallery of Canada will be stopping by to view her pieces. “They spend some of their time going to visit different artists…ones that they are interested in,” said the abstract artist. “It’s very encouraging

to know that some people understand what I’m trying to communicate.” The Kanata Civic Art Gallery hosts a new exhibition every month. The current hanging titled “Recollection,” highlights the work of Morin and Miller at the entrance to the Mlacak Centre. EXPRESSION

Miller joined the gallery 11 years ago and is a member of the Kanata Artists Studio Tour, which takes place every spring. She uses a mixture of fabric paint and embroidery to create realistic-looking landscapes. “That’s how I express myself,” she said. Most recently, Miller completed a dozen images of traditional Canadian landscapes and a dozen pieces inspired by the South March Highlands. One of the pieces was purchased by a jewelry artist from England. “I was thrilled,” said Miller, who paints the background on a piece of canvas, then uses a sewing machine to free-hand stitch the detail. “That’s what is wonderful about having Lynne, another textile artist, she totally gets it,” said Miller. Recently, she participated in the Glebe Fine Art Show, the inaugural Arnprior and Beyond Arts Discovery Tour and West Carleton’s Expressions of Art show. “It’s great, not only do you get to talk to other artists, but you get to talk to visitors,” said Miller, who’s now gearing up for the Kanata gallery’s annual Gift of Art event in November. Miller learned her trade through a friend of her mother’s. The woman showed her how to use a machine to add

Miller, who has a degree in chemistry and worked in conservation, is now a full-time artist. “This was something I always did and always came back to,” she said. “The Kanata Civic Art Gallery was a great venue for me. “There are artists of all different media and at different

places in their careers…a lot of mentoring goes on.” With 34 active artists, the art gallery is currently searching for new members. “Right now there is a call for artists,” said Miller. The deadline for submissions is Nov. 23. “We do feel we’re offering the community something,” she said. The Kanata Civic Art Gallery is located at 2500 Campeau Dr., in the Mlacak Centre.

New program helps off-set high hockey costs Ottawa District Hockey Association

EMC sports - Hockey arenas across the country are gearing up for the wave of youth hockey players that will soon descend upon the ice, skating from end to end and scoring big goals, continuing the great Canadian tradition of the opening of the annual hockey season. With more than 500,000 young hockey players registered this year, the youth hockey scene is vibrant from coast to coast. Survey data from Community Engage, an Ottawa-based social commerce company that helps raise funds for youth hockey teams and leagues, show the top skills parents notice their children developing are: confidence, listening to coaches, teamwork and empathy. When looking at the major threat to Canada’s game, the issue of escalating costs associated with playing the game is the top concern. Community Engage estimates the average annual cost for a first year player to be approximately $1,000, and it can be much higher for subsequent years. The Ottawa District Hockey Association (ODHA) and Community Engage have come together to help address the rising costs of

youth hockey in eastern Ontario. Representing more than 27,000 hockey families, ODHA is focused on recruitment and retention of young hockey players. “We are excited to be introducing Community Engage to the hockey families of eastern Ontario. Our region is a hotbed of hockey activity and our association is looking to help families get the most out of the game,” said Jeff Baker, ODHA technical and marketing director. “The benefits of youth hockey are numerous, including physical activity for youth, learning about team work, and fun game play. But escalating costs are definitely a hurdle families need to overcome and we are trying to create partnerships that reduce the financial burden on families who love the game of hockey.” With parents looking for ways to save money on hockey related merchandise, and hockey associations wanting to offset increased registration costs and ice rentals through fundraising initiatives, Community Engage is transforming the power of group buying into the power of group giving. “Reducing the cost of youth hockey in this country is the single biggest weapon

we have to fight eroding enrollment numbers. By offering families savings on hockey related merchandise and then funneling 12.5 per cent of all sales back as donations to local hockey associations and teams, Community Engage is looking to put dollars back in the wallets of Canadian hockey families,” said Craig Doornbos, of Community Engage. “The main reason Community Engage was born was to help ignite more passion for youth sports and play a role in helping reverse declining enrollment in youth hockey.” Vendors will offer unique promotions that help hockey families save money on sports related merchandise and other relevant products and services. All voucher sales on the site are tracked and 12.5 per cent of all sales are given back to the team or minor hockey association conducting the fundraising. Current and future deals will feature Barrhaven Source for Sports, Lacroix Sports Ottawa, Sports Experts, BodyArmour, COMBAT Sports, Family Physio and Ottawa Senators. The special offers are open to all residents of eastern Ontario. Visit the website at communityengage.com for more information.

ward Market was a resounding success when organizers announced the event doubled its original goal. More than 250 people played a little ping pong for charity on Sept. 28 at the third Ottawa Charity Ping Pong Tournament at the SpinBin located at 310 Dalhousie St. The event was in support of four charities: Do it for Daron, the Youth Services Bureau, Operation Come Home and Christie Lake Kids. After covering some overhead costs Michael Kirkpatrick, organizer and treasurer for the event, announced each charity will receive $5,000. “The real winners here are the charities,” he said.

“This event was all about raising their profiles and raising money for them.” The last two events, organized by Kirkpatrick and his friends, raised a total of $7,000 for charity. This year, organizers had aimed to raise $10,000, but surpassed that goal by $16,000. “I think the best thing was it was nice to see everyone come together to help raise money for the event, it was great we managed to make it happen,” Kirkpatrick said. Musical guests Rory Gardiner and the Pelts set the mood for the players and cheering section. See MASTERS on page 37

There were prizes, a silent auction and everyone was sporting their best ping pong outfits for the fun-filled event. The event was for charity, but there were three master table tennis players who walked away winners: Bence Csaba, Jebeur Fathally and Laine Silver. Each beat out the other players to win the top three prizes of the night. Silver later told Kirkpatrick the evening made her feel like

Kirkpatrick said the event was such as success thanks to his friends and fellow organizers: Tristan Hanington from K6 Media who helped with promotion, Wendy Leung from Beyond Events, and Verdun Windows and Doors for offering to be the event’s title sponsor.

Mayor’s Report

Put truck study in budget: Manotick leader City-wide review would be part of transportation master plan Emma Jackson

emma.jackson@metroland.com

EMC news - As the city prepares its 2013 draft budget, Manotick Village Community Association president Klaus Beltzner is pushing to have a truck route study added to the list. While the $250,000 comprehensive study would be a city-wide review, Beltzner’s motivation is to help his own village solve its longstanding problem of too many trucks using Bridge Street, Main Street and Bankfield Road on their way to Highway 416. He said many roads and the developments around them have changed in south Ottawa since the city’s last truck route review in 2005, and there are gaps in the system – leaving almost all trucks in the area rumbling through Manotick. Limebank’s designation as a truck route is spotty, and the Woodroffe connection at Prince of Wales is due to be closed. Earl Armstrong has changed from a rural two-lane road to a four-lane urban arterial – prime truck route potential, he said. With the Strandherd-Armstrong Bridge due for completion sometime next year, the only way to get the new bridge and its connecting roads on to the city’s official truck route is through the study. Adding these roads, he said, will help share the load between communities. “I’m not looking for a total elimination of trucks from Manotick, I’m looking for a sharing of the roads,” he said. Beltzner said he wants to deal with this issue now before it grows into a situation like the one on King Edward Avenue downtown.

“We’ve already seen how bad planning resulted in King Edward being a fiasco. The people on King Edward have had to bear these heavy trucks and all the chaos and loss of life it led to,” he said. Transportation committee chairperson Marianne Wilkinson supports including the truck route study in the transportation master plan scheduled for 2013, but Beltzner said he has met resistance from other councillors such as Barrhaven Coun. Jan Harder, who represents residents on the west side of the new bridge. Harder could not be reached for comment by press time. Rideau-Goulbourn Coun. Scott Moffatt said he supports any effort to add the study to the budget as part of the city’s transportation master plan, but staff currently have no plans to include it. “I’m trying to find out more information, and if there’s some wiggle room. It’s definitely something worth exploring,” he said. Staff have maintained that they would like the ongoing interprovincial bridge study to be completed first, and it is scheduled for the end of 2012 or early 2013. “The time is right,” Beltzner said. Moffatt said any changes to the south end’s truck route would likely result in more options for trucks rather than a total elimination from Bridge Street and the village. Hunt Club Road will be a viable option once it is connected to the 417, he said, and the Strandherd-Armstrong Bridge needs to be considered. “We’ll find a way to work with the trucking community

Trucks rumble down Bridge Street through Manotick every week day. Residents have long complained that the village core should not be a truck route. to relieve some pressure and spread it out,” he said. Truck calming

Beltzner is also calling for a speed reduction from 80 kilometres per hour to 60 km/h on Bankfield Road between Main and Prince of Wales, as part of his “program” to reduce trucks through the village. Beltzner said a study of that section of Bankfield found that one in five, or 20 per cent, of all vehicles were heavy trucks. “That is way out of line with any other truck routes in the rest of city,” he said, asserting that the road was not made for that kind of volume. Newer roads like Earl Armstrong, however, have been built to higher standards, he said, and are more suitable for heavy truck traffic. The poor infrastructure leads to increased vibrations and noise for nearby residents, which Beltzner said can cause hearing loss over time when the trucks are going 80 km/h.

He said reducing the speed to 60 km/h on Bankfield would cut noise and vibrations and encourage trucks to take alternate routes. Moffatt said he has had some complaints about speeding on Bankfield, but it’s not supported by data and he has not had complaints about noise or vibrations. “Some residents think I’m not listening, but I need evidence and I also need overwhelming support for the change,” he said. Beltzner’s master plan to get trucks out of Manotick rests on making Bridge, Main and Bankfield “less comfortable” for the big rigs. Along with reducing Bankfield’s speed limit, he wants to add parking and cycling lanes on Bridge, and to turn the village’s major intersections at Bridge and Main, Main and Bankfield and Bankfield at Prince of Wales into roundabouts. “It will give some truckers the idea that Strandherd’s 10lane-wide bridge will be an easier way to go,” he said.

IntegrIty Update: transparency and Openness at cIty Hall By Jim Watson

http://www.JimWatsonOttawa.ca

During the 2010 election, I committed to an integrity package – a set of proposals that would bring a new level of transparency and openness to City Hall. Some of the proposals were things that exist in other municipalities, or at the provincial or federal level. However, the difference was that there were no scandals or conflicts driving these changes in Ottawa. The integrity package was about establishing a fundamental system of accountability where nothing before existed. Leadership on these issues means being proactive, not reactive. Working together, we are establishing the checks and balances that citizens expect of their elected officials. I am pleased to update you on the progress we have made. Office Expenses One of our first acts of office was to begin posting our office expenses online, to show taxpayers how their money is being spent. Every month, you can visit ottawa.ca to see how Members of Council and senior management are spending their office budgets. Integrity Commissioner In August, we appointed an Integrity Commissioner, Robert Marleau. Mr. Marleau has 32 years of parliamentary experience, including 13 years spent as the Clerk of the House of Commons. He has also served as the interim Privacy Commissioner of Canada and as the Information Commissioner of Canada. The Integrity Commissioner’s role is to act as a resource for Members of Council on integrity issues, as well as to make recommendations to City Council about accountability measures. Lobbyist Registry Part of my day as Mayor and that of your City Councillor is meeting with various individuals who are legitimately seeking to change or implement a particular policy or by-law. Until recently, there was no way for citizens to know who City officials were meeting with or on what topics. Our new Lobbyist Registry changes this. A lobbyist is an individual who is paid to represent a business or financial interest. Any time they communicate with a public office holder, they must register their communication within 15 days. In turn, citizens are be able to visit the City website at ottawa.ca/lobbyist to see who their elected officials are meeting with and about which issues. The registry is the first of its kind in the municipal sector in Canada, and stands on the principle that public policy should be made publicly. The Lobbyist Registry clearly defines lobbying activities and advocacy work. It also omits advocacy activities by not-forprofit groups, like community associations. Next Steps I am proud of the progress we have made, but there is still more to do. Our new Integrity Commissioner will soon oversee the creation of a code of conduct, expense policy and gifts registry for Members of Council. These will provide additional transparency, and set the ground rules for how we expect our elected officials to conduct themselves. At the City of Ottawa, we are setting a higher standard of transparency and openness because City Council is showing leadership on this issue. I am proud that we have delivered on our commitments, and I look forward to continuing to make progress on the integrity file. R0011670637-1011

Ringing endorsements accompany final Lansdowne OKs Laura Mueller laura.mueller@metroland.com

EMC news - Shops, restaurants and football will make a renewed Lansdowne Park a success, according to presentations by the city’s partners on the project before the finance committee gave Lansdowne’s redevelopment its final blessing on Oct. 2. Gloucester-Southgate Coun. Diane Deans was the only member of the 11-member finance and economic development committee to vote against the final Lansdowne partnership agreements with the Ottawa Sports and Entertainment Group. Deans said she hopes Lansdowne will become a success, but she had concerns about creeping costs, including an additional $12 million in capital authority the committee was asked to approve. The rest of the commit-

tee, including the chairman, Mayor Jim Watson, didn’t hesitate to express appreciation to group and city staff for the final financial plan and legal agreements that will make the long-discussed redevelopment a reality. Admitting that there will be challenges and no plan is perfect, the mayor said it’s time to move forward on Lansdowne. “The period of talk is over. We’re now moving into the action phase,” Watson told the committee, calling the project “an opportunity of a lifetime.” Full city council will be asked to approve the project on Oct. 10 and major construction on the new components would be allowed to start as soon as Oct. 15. MORE VISITORS?

Lansdowne will welcome

FILE

Shops, restaurants and football are in the plans to make a renewed Lansdowne Park a success. between 7.5 million and 10 million visitors each year, said Roger Greenberg, head of OSEG – more than the group had originally anticipated when it calculated how much it could earn by selling naming rights for the park’s

facilities. While Greenberg framed the volume of visitors as a positive thing, the perceived increase raised flags for councillors. The ward’s councillor, David Chernushenko, and Deans asked what impact the number of visitors would have on transportation plans for Lansdowne. The number of projected visitors hasn’t gone up, Greenberg said. Rather, OSEG did more homework and crunched the numbers to find out how many people would be expected to visit the site throughout the year, including residents, office workers, shoppers and park goers in addition to the

visitors expected for large stadium events that were originally considered. “We don’t expect any more than we would have expected in totality in 2010,” Greenberg said. “Now we’re just adding them all together when it comes to selling naming rights.” Previous city reports on the Lansdowne redevelopment indicate that eight million tourists visit Ottawa each year. Whether or not there are more visitors than originally estimated, transportation is going to be a concern - a message conveyed by Chernushenko and other councillors, including transportation chairwoman Coun. Marianne Wilkinson. NAMING RIGHTS

But whether the site will still be called Lansdowne Park is another question altogether, Greenberg said. The group plans to sell naming rights for different parts of the development to willing sponsors in a bid to earn $50 million in revenue – far more than the original estimate of $15.7 million. It will be up to the city if it still wants to keep the name Lansdowne Park for the urban park portion of the site. The naming-rights revenue would be earned by seeking a major sponsor and smaller sponsor-

STADIUM DESIGN

The man behind the striking, wooden “veil” redesign for the football stadium is no longer working on the project. Rob Claiborne penned the design, but he is no longer with the design firm in charge of the project, Cannon Design. While city councillors asked if Claiborne could be made available to help review changes to the design, Greenberg said relations between the architect and his former firm “aren’t exactly cordial.” Those changes include removing 14 metres of roof and box beams from the north side roof to address snow accumulation issues and make the stadium more symmetrical; changes to simplify the construction and maintenance of the wooden veil structure; and reducing the size of the canopies covering the stadium’s north-side entrances. RETAIL

Greenberg said despite concerns aired in the media, retailers have showed a great deal of interest in signing on to the development. He dropped a couple more names of merchants that have signed on to Lansdowne: two westcoast restaurant chains, Joey and LoCal, as well as South Street Burgers, Il Fornello and a store called Sporting Life. Empire Cinemas, LCBO and Whole Foods had previously confirmed their tenancy. The city will aim to bring the Grey Cup to the capital in four years, either in 2017 or 2018.

ships for the other components, including the stadium, mixed-use retail and office area. Greenberg said he still wants to find a way to recognize the stadium’s historic namesake, Frank Clair. “I think we’re very sensitive to the history … We really want to connect with the past,” Greenberg said. “We’ll be mindful of the names that are there, but we need to ensure the naming rights sponsor has a major role to play as well.”

EMC news – One hundred and twenty-eight children enjoyed ice cream as they watched the sun come up aboard an Air Canada flight staffed by a pirate crew as they made their way to the “happiest place on earth.” And if that sounds like the start of the best day ever, it only got better as the annual Dreams Take Flight Ottawa trip to Walt Disney World in Orlando, Fla. touched down shortly after 9 a.m. on Sept. 25. By 10:30 a.m., children who might never have had the chance to visit the theme park could barely contain their excitement – eager to experience everything Disney had to offer. The day began bright and early at 4 a.m., as parents and children arrived at Ottawa’s Canada Reception Centre, where the prime minister and other dignitaries fly from, in anticipation of the 5:30 a.m. flight. Once inside the hangar, all were greeted by nearly 100 smiling Dreams Take Flight Ottawa volunteers who turned what could have been a chaotic scene into a sea of excitement and organization. Each child and volunteer received a uniform to wear on the trip. “This is just incredible,” said first-time Dreams trip volunteer Nida Kealey. “We are going to have such fun.” She recalled how her now 18-year-old autistic son went on a Disney trip with the organization nine years ago and it was the best thing he could have done. He has since travelled on a plane 10 times and she credits the Dreams trip with giving him the confidence to do whatever he sets his mind to. Since October 1995, Dreams Take Flight Ottawa has given children with physical, mental or social challenges an incredible day where they can be carefree and make memories to last forever. A total of nine hours was spent at Disney World including meals and shopping time.

Dreams Take Flight Ottawa uses specific criteria to select children for the trip. Among the criteria, children with special needs must represent various agencies, be between the ages of six and 12 and have never visited a Disney theme park before. Making special memories happen is not cheap. This year’s trip cost $195,000 and would not have been possible without assistance from organizations like Air Canada, which donated the plane for the trip and Shell, which donated the fuel. The Air Canada pilots and flight crew for the trip also donated their time, taking a vacation day to be part of the magical experience that not only included dressing up for the flight but also coming to the park later in the day to enjoy the rides. Other corporate sponsors like Mark’s, Crocs and Bentley stepped up again to assist with clothing, shoes and backpacks for volunteers and children. And even more sponsors support the trip and the charity in other ways. Dreams Take Flight is a 100-per-cent volunteer-run organization. Various fundraising events held over the course of the year help top off coffers so everything is paid for on the trip. Children also received spending money to bring home a special Disney souvenir. For some parents, the trip marked the first time their children were either away from them or travelling to the United States without them. But the fear of having a child gone for nearly 24 hours was not greater than their desire for them to have the experience of a lifetime. Dunrobin’s Laura Taffinder, 8, was recommended for the trip by the teacher at her school in Kanata. “She is very, very excited,” said her mom Tracy Taffinder, who said she was not nervous about her daughter travelling without her. “I am so excited for her. It really is the chance of a lifetime.” Laura even managed to get a full night’s sleep before the

Splash Mountain was one of the most popular ride choices at Walt Disney World. Dreams Take Flight volunteers Mike Banville, Wendy Robblee (with mouse ears) and trip participant Kideyn Matthias are all smiles as they move along the circuit before taking the 15-metre plunge. Children, volunteers and even the media got to spend nine hours at Disney enjoying the sights, sounds and most of all the rides during hot and humid Florida weather on Sept. 25. flight, with mom having no trouble waking her up bright and early. This year’s trip to Disney World featured a number of siblings sharing the magical experience. Among them were sisters Shaily and Feyah Turner of Orléans. “We are very excited,” 12-year-old Shaily said on the plane, noting the sisters couldn’t wait to ride the popular Splash Mountain ride. “We have been looking it up (on) the computer for quite a while.” The first rides chosen by groups the minute they walked through Disney’s gates were either Splash Mountain or Space Mountain, and they were revisited frequently throughout the day. While the water ride sends people hurling down a 15-metre drop and the other is a roller coaster ride in the dark, the screams

heard were not of fear but excitement. As the day went on, the smiles grew wider. While most of the children on the trip were English, a number of French youngsters enjoyed themselves as well. One of those was Denisha Poulain Levasseur. She had a great time driving a race car on the Speedway ride and she kept saying she could not believe she was doing it. For some volunteers, this year’s trip likely marked their last with the organization. “It has been awesome. The kids are great. We’ve had a great group today,” said 2012 Dreams Take Flight Ottawa president Nicole Banville midway through the Disney World trip day. Banville is stepping down as a director with the organization and the most recent trip marked her final one.

“It is bittersweet. I will miss everybody. I will probably hang a bit, maybe volunteer,” she mused. “I think the kids have had a great time from what I have seen,” Banville concluded. Her husband Mike, the organization’s vice president, has been on five trips to Disney World and he said the experience is very gratifying. As the day wound its way to a close, and all the rides has been thoroughly enjoyed, children and volunteers made their way to Disney World’s famous Main Street for some souvenir shopping. Each child received $30 to find that special memento of a day not to be forgotten anytime soon. The group arrived back at the hangar at Orlando International Airport and boarded the steps to the waiting plane before the 9 p.m. takeoff.

While the trip down to Florida had been filled with the sounds of excited children, the return trip was much quieter and many huddled down in the first class sleeper bunks to dream about the incredible day that had become reality. Once back inside the Canada Reception Centre, each child received a Bentley donated backpack filled with gifts to mark their special day. From there, they were ushered into the main part of the hangar where a red carpet was rolled out and parents waited eagerly for their children. “This was the best day ever,” one child was overheard telling his parents. No doubt, a sentiment shared between many other parents and children as they reunited after a long, exhausting but thrilling day.

Archville â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;ground zeroâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; for intensification woes: residents ers until recently, but redevelopment pressure is mounting. Like many property owners, residents in the small section of Old Ottawa East didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t realize what the cityâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s zoning rules allow to be built on their lots. Now, with a three-storey, nineunit triplex rising on Chestnut Street, neighbours are worried.

Laura Mueller laura.mueller@metroland.com

EMC news - Archville is set to become â&#x20AC;&#x153;ground zeroâ&#x20AC;? for infill in Ottawa, residents say. The small community of modest post-war bungalows has stood unchanged in the shadow of Lees Avenue apartment tow-

In a block and a half, there are around 20 unimproved homes that are ripe for redevelopment on Chestnut Street, said Rick Burrows, who lives on the street. Under the permitted zoning, those lots could all be redeveloped into triplexes, increasing the small streetâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s population by 400 per cent.

â&#x20AC;&#x153;Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s whatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s allowed with no minor variances,â&#x20AC;? Burrows said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We are ground zero for this.â&#x20AC;? Burrows spoke out at a meeting about infill development held at St. Paul University on Oct. 3. He said heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a fan of the cityâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s policy of intensification and having more people live

with a smaller footprint in the cityâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s core, but whatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s allowed in Archville goes too far. Applause from about 40 other residents in attendance signaled their agreement. â&#x20AC;&#x153;If Chestnut was redeveloped that way, it would be dysfunctional. It wouldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t work,â&#x20AC;? said Old Ottawa East resident

John Engeland. Problems like a lack of parking compound as intensification occurs beyond what the city was expecting and spot rezonings only make it worse, he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve had it,â&#x20AC;? Engeland said, to another round of applause.

agreed. She was satisfied that the change would allow multiple-dog ownership for a sport like hers, which involves dogs pulling people on skis. VETS EXEMPT

City staff came under fire from the audience of more than 100 for exempting veterinarians from the kennel rules. Patrick Hunt, who breeds Irish setters in North Gower, received applause when he said the vet exemption needs to be fixed. Many veterinary clinics operate a boarding kennel as a side business, but they are not required to get a licence or pay a fee for that kennel, and the new rules would continue that exemption. “They shouldn’t be exempt because they’re professionals,” he said. City bylaw chief Linda Anderson said boarding operations at vet clinics are “traditionally” used to house animals after operations, or for temporary care of animal patients. That declaration elicited a loud boo from the crowd, and with direction from the committee, Anderson said she would take another look at that aspect of the rules. The new policies have been in the works since 2009.

EMC news - The city would be asking many rural dog owners to fly under the radar if it passes new kennel and breeding rules, one resident says. Kinburn resident Tim Pychyl was one of more than 20 residents who came to the Greely Community Centre on Oct. 4 to poke holes in the city’s draft rules regulating the boarding and breeding of dogs and cats. There were so many complaints and a hefty five proposed changes to the bylaw that West Carleton-March Coun. Eli El-Chantiry asked to have the entire matter deferred to a later date. “I don’t believe we should be making policy on the fly,” El Chantiry said. The agriculture and rural affairs committee will revisit the matter on Dec. 6 after city staff revises the rules. Pychyl, who owns eight sled dogs, pleaded with the committee to include people like him – recreational pet owners who have more than three dogs. Under the proposed rules, people who have more than three dogs or five cats for breeding or showing must apply for a new permit: an in-home breed-

ing licence. There is a separate licence proposed for commercial kennels or boarding operations. A last-minute change was proposed to address Pychyl’s concern and allow people who own a larger number of pets for recreational reasons, including sledding or agility, to apply for an in-home breeding licence, but Pychyl said that’s not good enough. “It’s a principle thing,” he said. “It’s about being part of a city that understands what we’re doing.” If the city is drafting new rules in order to clean up the different regulations from former municipalities, it should be done right and be inclusive of all citizens, Pychyl said. While Pychyl has always obtained a kennel licence for his dogs, many other citizens in his situation don’t bother because their type of dog ownership isn’t recognized by the rules. Continuing the practice of refusing to recognize sport and recreational dog ownership in numbers larger than three would encourage those owners to continue to fly under the radar, Pychyl said.

staff, is all made possible by things like Chills for CHEO,” said Lamont. Gloucester-South Nepean Coun. Steve Desroches was on hand at the kickoff to deliver a message of goodwill on behalf of Ottawa mayor Jim Watson. Desroches, whose family recently welcomed twins into their household, expressed his gratitude for being able to reside in a city where people can benefit from a facility like CHEO. He also thanked the founder and volunteers of Chills for CHEO, having met Ellis when he was a constituent operating a possibly too-successful haunted house inside his riding. “Dave has been one of the great entrepreneurs of our city,” said Desroches. “People want a city where they can work, live and play, and this fits right into that.” Chills for CHEO is now open at 1050 Baxter Road, and will remain open until Oct. 31.

EMC news - It’s that time of year when thoughts turn to jack-o’-lanterns, trick or treating, and sheer terror. The organizers of Chills for CHEO are always more than happy to provide Ottawa residents with their annual terror quotient, and this year they’re back with even more frightful fun. Returning for a second year to Funhaven’s Baxter Road location, where the Oct. 4 kickoff was held, Chills for CHEO has become famous for teens and adults looking for pulsepounding thrills in the infamous Crypt of Torment. Now, the event is adding a haunted house for kids – the Magic Manor - which tones down the terror while still providing a fun, spooky experience. “It incorporates a new storyline,” said Funhaven events manager Danielle Vicha. “Strange things have been happening at Funhaven and Scooby Doo and the gang are coming to solve the mystery.” Last year 10,000 people attended Chills over a threeweek period, raising $65,000 for the children’s hospital.

This year, the event will run a full month and promises to bring in even more money – a fitting result for an event that began 10 years ago in founder Dave Ellis’ garage. “What’s in Chills takes up two tractor trailers,” he explained, noting how the event quickly outgrew the confines of his suburban yard. “It’s great to have a place where we can put it and get it going.” Ellis said it takes a team of 200 volunteers a full month to construct the Crypt of Torment. It has been designed to process a large number of participants while still providing “a very close experience.” CHEO Foundation vicepresident Norma Lamont praised the initiative and those who make it possible. “It is donor dollars that makes the true difference…it makes (CHEO) not just a hospital but a special place for the kids.” CHEO is hoping to purchase a laparoscopic tower – a mobile, rolling device that provides visualization and documentation of endoscopy procedures – in the near future to further advance the work occurring at the hospital. “The equipment in the OR, the research that helps our

Old Ottawa South first for new zoning fixes Laura Mueller

often clamor for to establish growth and development standards. But community design plans are really intended to guide the growth of an area, Hume said last spring, so the SWAT team will have a different focus: to protect what’s already there. The process is intended to be “surgical,” Hume said: geographically limited, and quick, likely under six months. Community design plans can take years and some areas can see significant redevelopment and change before the process is completed. “In cases like this, areas that seem to be a target of quite aggressive development, you have to act quickly or give it up,” Chernushenko said. “If you wait … there is no character left to save.” One strong option is

“down-zoning” the area, meaning the zoning could be downgraded to set a lower height limit and smaller massing for new buildings. A heritage overlay is another possibility, Chernushenko

said. But the councillor said the exercise is not intended to prevent change entirely. “I’ll support it if that’s what the neighbours want … (I will be) supporting them

in their quest to better protect the character without stopping change outright,” he said. Meloche is expected to gather a group of stakeholders for a preliminary meeting this month.

EMC news - The city’s answer to communities’ cries to save neighbourhood character is coming to Old Ottawa South this month. The very first project for the zoning “SWAT” team promised by Mayor Jim Watson and planning committee chairman Peter Hume during the city’s planning summit this spring will get underway this month – before the team has even been fully assembled. The city has hired a planning consultant, Nancy Meloche, to look at a small section of Colonel By Drive where homes have come under pressure for redevelopment. City planning staff who will be working on future SWAT projects are currently

being assembled into a new team, following a restructuring of the city’s planning department. Meloche will be speaking to residents and surveying the existing homes between Grosvenor and Bronson avenues. City staff declined to provide further details about the project until it is officially unveiled sometime this month, city spokewoman Jocelyne Turner said in an email. The aim is to try and protect some of the character in this small area along the Rideau Canal, said Capital Coun. David Chernushenko. “What are the attributes that people want to save?” he asked. That idea is in contrast to the intention of a community design plan – a lengthy process neighbourhood groups

Knight leads charge on creative teaching jennifer.mcintosh@metroland.com

EMC news - Good teachers can weave magic. That was the lesson Sir John Jones left with a group of parents and educators after speaking as part of the public school board’s Lead the Way series at Longfields-Davidson Heights Secondary School (LDHSS) on Oct. 3. Jones, who has taught in several schools in north-western England, said one student asked him once why he needed a teacher if he had Google. “I told him that it was a good question. Then I was quiet,” Jones said. “Then another student spoke up and said, ‘Google can teach you history, but it can’t teach you to love history.’ It’s our job to teach a love of learning.” But the learning environment is changing. “Eighty per cent of children in elementary school will be working at jobs that don’t presently exist,” Jones said. Students of today don’t remember a world without messenger, without Facebook, without iPhones and yet, 60 per cent of the writing done in classrooms is copying with a pen and paper. Jones said if your job can be done by someone in Asia for cheaper you need to change what you’re doing. If

it can be automated, or done by a computer you need to change what you’re doing. If it’s something a lot of people can do, you need to stop what you’re doing. To be able to compete with an international workforce, children need to be problem solvers and creative thinkers. ‘There are more children in India with degrees than there are children in America,” Jones said, adding China is now the largest English-speaking country in the world. “Our children will be competing for jobs with them,” he said. “They need to be innovative and have new ideas.” To foster these attitudes, teachers need to be flexible. Jones said teachers should ask themselves why they do things the way they do. If the answer is because it’s always been done that way, then the method should be changed. “In most classrooms teachers do 80 per cent of the talking. Why are you working so hard?” Jones said, adding that letting the students do the talking can change the scope of the lesson – often for the better. “Over-preparation kills creativity,” Jones said. “If you spend all day Sunday preparing for Monday’s lesson then no one is going to derail it.” The world is changing,

Jones said, and with it, so should the education system. The system was designed to foster left brain activities like reading and writing and tends to discount the less analytical subjects like the performing arts and design and technology. “In a lot of cases it’s these types of courses that prepare us for life,” Jones said. Jones’ talk was entitled Engaged Parents, Happy Students and was part of a larger showcase offered by the board’s parental involvement committee that provided information about school clubs across the city that teach students in new and innovative ways. BACK TO KINDERGARTEN

As part of a watercolour unit in their Grade 10 art class last year, LDHSS students repainted the kindergarten play yard at Adrienne Clarkson Elementary School. Emily Plantinga, now in Grade 11, participated in the project. “It was really neat because I went to school there (Adrienne Clarkson),” she said. “We went to meet with the kindergarten students and got input about what they wanted to see in their play yard.” Some of the requests included things like a smaller

hopscotch grid and more colour. The students made up a watercolour model and then spent a morning last spring painting on the asphalt. “There was a drizzle right after we finished so the teachers had to spend an hour sopping up the water,” Plantinga said. “So students in the Grade 10 class may go back and do touch up.” Despite their weather woes it was a great project, Plantinga said, adding that it was the first time she had really done art work with “client” input.

City seals the deal for Barrhaven park-and-ride Jennifer McIntosh

jennifer.mcintosh@metroland.com

EMC news - The city’s transportation committee signed off on the $5.2-million purchase of a plot of land on Woodroffe Avenue on Oct. 3. The purchase will seal the deal for a future Barrhaven park-and-ride meant to serve residents on both sides of the Rideau River. The report presented to the committee said both the city’s transportation master plan and official plan call for a parkand-ride to serve the southeastern part of Barrhaven. The need for the park-andride was identified in a 2008 update to the transportation plan. “Continued rapid residential growth in Barrhaven would be served by the new park-and-ride,” the report reads. The new lot – which would have 680 parking spaces – would be serviced by the bus route 94. The bus would access use an already constructed bus turnaround on the lot at 3311 Woodroffe Ave. The land is also located on the future Chapman Mills rapid transit corridor and will connect with the Strandherd Drive transit corridor before

linking up with the bus-only lanes on the Strandherd Armstrong Bridge. The route would connect northward along Woodroffe Avenue for commuters travelling to Fallowfield station and south to the Riverview park-and-ride lot in Riverside South where commuters have the option of continuing downtown. “The purchase of this land from the South Nepean Development Corporation (SNDC) allows the city to move forward on its plans to provide convenient, accessible rapid transit service to the residents of south Ottawa,” GloucesterSouth Nepean Coun. Steve Desroches said in a press release. “In addition to the residents of Barrhaven, many residents in rural Ottawa will also benefit from this park-andride facility along this major transportation corridor.” The land purchased from the SNDC amounts to more than four hectares. The development corporation will be developing two single-storey mixed-use buildings in the land adjacent to the park-and-ride. Desroches said potential uses could include banks, a convenience store, office space or a service or repair business.

DEATH NOTICE

GARAGE SALE

Francis Gay Ruff (Lobb) (nee Morton) It is with sad hearts that we announce the passing of Francis Gay Ruff (Lobb) of Ottawa Ontario. Born in Hamilton Ontario, she was the daughter of the late Aubrey (Veteran of World War I) and Nancy Morton. Predeceased by her first husband, James Alan Lobb and second husband Albert Ruff, both proud sailors through World War II, she is survived by her brother Dr. Phillip Morton (Ann) of Toronto. Much beloved and devoted mother of Phillip Lobb (Julie) of Sidney BC, Timothy Lobb (Loanne ) of Surrey BC and John Lobb (Brenda) of Carp, Ontario. Also survived by nieces Cynthia, Nancy, Gwyneth (Mark) and Charles (Heather) as well as by the Ruff clan, Stewart and Susan Ruff and Eric and Barbara Ruff. She was a much loved and cherished Gramma to James and Joel Lobb and to Cody Walsh as well as to Elizabeth, Michael, Andrew and Daniel. Gay grew up in Hamilton Ontario and was a child of the great depression; that experience gave her a great appreciation for the basics of life and taking care of her husband James and the family was the main order of business which she did extremely well even as they moved around so that James could follow his career path. The family resided in Bamfield BC, England, Montreal, Calgary, Toronto and Victoria. Gay took employment where she could and as well as raising her three boys, also volunteered at the Royal Jubilee Hospital in Victoria BC for 25 years. Unfortunately, she lost her first husband James in 1975. In her later years she enjoyed much world travel. She was proud of her lineage and gathered genealogical information as she could, sometimes by visiting distant relatives in England, Wales and elsewhere. In her retirement, Gay’s travels expanded to include European and Asian destinations. In 1992, she married Alan Ruff, a fellow Victorian and Brit, with whom she travelled even more and found great happiness with. Her children and grand children were her greatest source of pride and her highest priority. Despite challenges of distance and time, she did the best she could to keep the family connected. Trips to visit son John while he was on military postings around the country were common-place, as were visits to her brother, Dr Phil Morton and his wife Ann in Toronto. Gay had many interests and was constantly occupied with various volunteer positions. She especially loved to entertain friends and family. Rarely seen without a book, she also enjoyed crafting, playing scrabble, bridge, gardening, walking, and she was a great cook. She will also be remembered for her great sense of humor. Despite her failing health and the onset of Alzheimer’s in her latter years, she could still trigger gales of laughter with her wry sense of humour and rapier-like wit. She will be missed by all who knew her. There will be no immediate funeral however a memorial service will be announced and held in the near future. The family wishes to acknowledge the wonderful care Gay received while a resident at the Fairview Manor in Almonte as well as the personal support workers who assisted Brenda and John while Gay lived with them in Carp. In lieu of flowers, the family suggests a donation in her name to: Almonte General Hospital, Fairview Manor Foundation

City looking to let ATVs on road allowances Laura Mueller

SERVING KANATA NORTH

laura.mueller@metroland.com

EMC news - ATVs on unopened roads are nothing new, but a local group wants to be the first to make the practice official. Ottawa members of the Nation Valley ATV Club have been successful in lobbying rural city councillors to support putting together a pilot project to let all-terrain vehicles use trails in Osgoode that are technically unopened road allowances, as well as the shoulders of some roads. The trial period is still a ways off – city staff must research whether it’s a good idea and talk to residents in the community to find out what they think. But the eventual goal is to allow the club to use and maintain the trails for about two years. After that, city council could look at making the arrangement permanent or even expanding it to other areas in the city. “For over 133 years, nobody has used them,” said Kris Gough, a Greely resident who is leading the charge. “We want to be the first to come ahead, open them up and let all residents … use it. “It’s city-owned property and I think the city residents should be using it,” he added. The road allowances would be open for ATVs and recreational users such as off-road cyclists or horse riders, but “specialty vehicles” such as dirt bikes and dune buggies would be prohibited. Unofficially, though, Gough said the road allowances have been used “forever,” but the city requires a club to go through the process of getting a bylaw passed in order to officially be allowed to use it. “I think this is an important step forward,” said Osgoode Coun. Doug Thompson. “If we don’t do it, we are going to have more problems in the future.” “If it’s official … then we can maintain the trail, sign it and make it safe,” Gough said. “Right now, when a tree falls down, nobody cleans it up. We’re going to maintain them and open them up.” The Nation Valley club currently has 15 wardens that patrol its trails, mainly south of the city, and it already owns equipment that can be used to maintain the trails. Overall, the club spends $15,000 a year to maintain all of its trails. Club president Dave Baker said the club will probably end up spending $1,000 on wayfinding signs for the Ottawa trails. The club raises money through selling trail passes, running rallies and finding sponsors. Gough and other local ATVers tried to get the city to allow ATVs on a multi-use pathway two years ago, but were unsuccessful. “When we lost the multiuse pathway debate, we regrouped and really thought about what we wanted and we realized these unopened road allowances are what we wanted,” Gough said.

City Councillor, Kanata North TOWN CENTRE ZONING Urbandale has submitted an application to zone the remaining lands that it owns in the Kanata Town Centre. These lands run from Campeau Drive to Highway 417 west of Knudson. I have spoken with Urbandale and met with City staff to discuss the request and to raise concerns about building height along Campeau, building design and the set back from Campeau Drive and other streets. City staff require a full urban design plan to be included and I concur with that requirement. An update and discussion on the submission will take place at the Ward Council meeting on Oct 22nd (program room, Senior’s Centre, Mlacak Centre at 7 pm). LAURA MUELLER/METROLAND

Nation Valley ATV Club member Mark Smiley of Greely rides on the road allowance off Flag Station Road. pathways are mostly flat and smooth, road allowances are more rugged and better suited to ATV use. “It’s not a safety issue, it just comes down to enjoyment,” he said. “This is a lot more enjoyable than a flat, straight surface.” ATVS ON ROADS

There are areas where ATV riders would have to use road shoulders to get to the next trail. At the moment, ATVs are only legally allowed to cross roads at 90-degree angles – not drive alongside them. The ATV club has proposed a trail and shoulder network that includes shoulders along Cabin Road between Doyle Road and Manotick Station Road, and Manotick Station Road between Cabin Road and Springhill Road, and a couple other small links along roadsides.

“However, our goal is to get off of all the roads. We don’t really want to ride on the sides of roads,” Gough said. “But to do that, we need a trail backbone in place and then we can approach private land owners.” City staff will be studying the proposed map and asking Osgoode residents what they think, but for the most part, Gough said the trails aren’t close to any homes. The project is expected to increase the number of ATVs on city road allowances. “Hopefully a lot of people who didn’t know they were here will come out,” Gough said. Stittsville Coun. Shad Qadri wants city staff to pay special attention to how the bylaw would be enforced in areas like his, where rural and urban sections of the city meet. “How do we control the renegades in that kind of sce-

nario?” Qadri said. If everything goes well, the club hopes to follow the example of what it did in Winchester and expand the local trail network. “We have these problems now,” said West-Carleton March Coun. Eli El-Chantiry. “Maybe we should be looking at a wider scope. This will not be the end of it.” Eventually, the Ottawa members of the club might look at breaking off and forming their own club, but for now, they are a chapter of the Nation Valley group. The club has about 150 members and almost half of them reside in Ottawa. The city will be announcing public consultations soon. For more information about the Nation Valley club’s proposal, visit www.nvatvc/ ottawatrailproject or email ottawatrailproject@ nvatvc.org.

2 THE PARKWAY MEETING DEFERRED I have spoken with the Manager of Planning on the results of the last public meeting and the need to have any staff recommendation reflect the Official Plan, which does not support a 9 storey building. As a result, a further review of the plans submitted is underway and the report will not be at the Planning Committee on Oct 23rd as was indicated at the public meeting. I have not yet been given the date to be rescheduled. VACCINATION TIME The HPV vaccine is now available at no cost to females between the ages of 14 and 19 through a one-time catch up program.

EMC news - Eight years ago, Lucie Marleau was moved into a war zone when she bought her new home in Vanier, having saved up for 10 years to make the purchase. A concentration of absentee landlords left her adrift on a street of homes housing drug use, prostitution and constant partying. Police had to be called an average of three times a week to deal with dangerous and intimidating behaviour and Marleau stopped inviting friends over because of the loud partying and beer bottles and dog excrement thrown onto her patio. She felt desperate and fearful. Then Crime Prevention Ottawa offered her some help to work on changing the neighbourhood. “I – and others – took (Crime Prevention Ottawa’s) motto to heart,” Marleau told the city’s community and protective services committee on Sept. 20. “I became the change I wanted to see in my community.” Since 2007, Marleau and Together for Vanier are one of three neighbourhood groups to have been involved in Crime Prevention Ottawa’s commu-

nity-based crime prevention initiative. Between 2006 and 2011, each of the three neighbourhoods, including Vanier, Lowertown East and PinecrestQueensway, have seen more than a 20 per cent drop in crime. “That’s not just a statistical drop,” said Rideau-Vanier Coun. Mathieu Fleury, whose ward contains two of the targeted communities: Vanier and Lowertown East. Those two neighbourhoods each saw a 20 per cent drop in crime, while west-end neighbourhood Pinecrest-Queensway had a 27 per cent drop in crime. Crime also went down across the city, but by a lesser margin: 15 per cent. The approach offers hope that communities facing a seemingly insurmountable challenge of overcoming crime and the effects of poverty can turn their neighbourhoods around. It’s a three-pronged approach that involves creating safe and welcoming physical environments and being actively engaged with partners in the community. But perhaps the most important element is building a group of actively engaged residents.

RIDEAU-VANIER COUN. MATHIEU FLEURY

From neighbourhood gatherings, movies in the park and community gardens to safety audits, walkabouts and youth leadership development, pushing for improvements wouldn’t be possible without passionate residents driving the change, said Nancy Worsfold, executive director of Crime Prevention Ottawa. “This is a community approach, looking at the community context in which people were living,” Worsfold said. “This approach engages more people, builds resilience in the community and innovative solutions.” Part of that resiliency involves making the initiatives self sufficient, so Crime Prevention Ottawa has worked to find outside funding for the projects. Community-based crime prevention initiatives in Lowertown and PinecrestQueensway haven’t received

Crime Prevention Ottawa funding since 2010. Even without direct funding, the initiatives have taken on a life of their own. In Lowertown, a successful push for community engagement has lead to reclaiming Jules Morin Park from drug traffickers and users as well as sex workers. Now, work is just beginning on renovations to the park to provide it with a soccer field and make the park one level. “A space once dominated by the hustle and bustle of a vibrant community was vacant,” said Holly Brown, community development co-ordinator at the Lowertown Community Resource Centre. “With persistence we are coming to reown our park.” This year, Crime Prevention Ottawa launched an online resource to support communitybased crime prevention: the Neighbourhood Toolkit. It offers information and resources to help residents create safer communities and build community spirit. The website can be found at toolkit.crimepreventionottawa. ca/.

EMC news - Should skateboards be allowed on the sidewalk or on the road? What about rollerblades? Capital Coun. David Chernushenko wants those questions answered. While bicycles are classified as vehicles and therefore banned from sidewalks, skateboards and especially longboards have no such classification. Longboards travel faster than standard skateboards and are more often used for transportation than tricks. Chernushenko said the growing popularity of longboards should prompt the city to look at how the rules of the road apply to the long skateboards. “They fall into this gray area … not allowed on the sidewalk and not allowed on the road,” he said. “I feel we should be moving forward with some way of legitimizing them.” Chernushenko said he’d like to see clearer rules to tell longboarders that they belong on the road rather than the sidewalk, with similar enforcement as police would consider for bicycles. He’s happy to promote emission-free ways to travel, the councillor said, but more clarity is needed.
