‘Nobody’s coming up with an alternative’ Over 400 people show up to protest development on Beaver Pond land JESSICA CUNHA KOURIER-STANDARD More than 400 people turned out to walk through the Beaver Pond forest on Saturday, June 5, to protest a planned subdivision that would see 182 hectares of the woods demolished. Steve Hulaj, who moved to Kanata because of access to the Beaver Pond forest, put the event together to bring the development to a halt. “This is an old growth forest in the city of Ottawa,” he said. “It is the only forest in the world in a major city that has species at risk and we’re about to destroy it all simply because nobody’s coming up with an alternative.” Families, environmental activists and residents turned out in droves to show the developers they don’t want to see the forest destroyed. “I’m here today because I use this forest all the time,” said Adam Caldwell, who grew up in Kanata and moved his family back to the area one

year ago. “It’s an extremely valuable resource. If they tear down this forest it’s going to seriously impact the liveability of this community. There’s a lot of unique environment in there that they will destroy. If they move forward with that it’s going to be a real loss.” HOME FOR AT-RISK SPECIES In 1981, the area was zoned for development. Since then, 17 at-risk species have been located in the forest, such as the Blanding’s Turtle, but the planned subdivision is still going ahead. “By holing out the middle (of the forest) for 3,200 homes, the remaining fringe of this forest that they were able to protect by not zoning it urban – all those remaining 17 at-risk species – they’ll all perish simply because you can’t sustain a sensitive forest JESSICA CUNHA PHOTO when you have a hole in the middle,” Kathleen Hauschild, Natascha Wood and Cyndi Thomson don’t want to see the Beaver Pond lands said Hulaj. developed. “We’ve been going here since we were young,” said Hauschild. “It’s important to the BEAVER POND, SEE 4 community.” Added Wood, “It’s not going to come back once you destroy it.”

tion of why this is the best approach,” she said. When pressed, Curry said that she thought the budget needs to address the structural deficit of the school board. The way the budget is designed, the committee has to guess at numbers until funding from the province is confirmed. New trustee for Barrhaven/ Knoxdale-Merivale, Mark Fisher, believes that the budget is doing the best with what it’s got to work with. He said that the budget closely matches the money provided. “It’s an overall responsible budget. I like that it’s multiyear,” he said. “We don’t have a fix in the budget to fund all things.” jamie.doggart@metroland. com

election – is irresponsible. “The board gets money over the course of the school year,” she said. “To tie hands for a two year period when you know money is coming in is irresponsible,” Especially when it comes to the touchy topic of cutbacks to special education and cultural liaisons. FitzGerald believes that cuts to those departments should be reversed since there’s expenditure in the budget of $600,000 for replacement elevators at central headquarters. “It’s a waste of money,” she said. Kanata trustee Cathy Curry is taking a more reserved approach to the budget until she’s had time to read it over. “We’re still at a stage where we’re trying to get clarifica-

The city’s public school board’s projected budget for this year faces a deficit of $14.9 million. The budget put forward for debate is based on estimated expenditures of $737.4 million, with projected revenue income of $722.8 million, which creates the shortfall of $14.9 million. The Ottawa-Carleton District School Board (OCDSB) must by law pass a balanced budget and in order to do that, four key aspects were factored in. The previous board approved reductions of $2.9 million mainly to staff, plus an additional $3.6 million in reductions. The board projects revenue to increase by $1.9 million and a total of $6.5 million will be used from the reserves to make up the balance. In order to do all of this and place the public board firmly in the black, the proposed budget spans an unheard of two years. Riley Brockington, budget committee chair for OCDSB, said that balancing the budget this year was a challenge

“It’s a massive budget and sometimes things can get lost in the shuffle,” he said. “The community will have to decide if the proposed budget is acceptable.” Despite the proposed budget being the fruit of nine months of debate and discussion, the community will still have a few more opportunities to question the budget before it is passed. “We expect members of the community to examine education for the students. Reductions are made to minimize impact on students,” Brockington said. Some projected cuts will be $400,000 in computer technology spending, $165,000 in funding for multicultural liaison officers and $204,888 in reductions to the special education operating budget. It’s cuts such as these that has trustee for College ward Pam FitzGerald worried. “I’m very worried about what it means,” she said. “I’m worried that the neediest children will face cutbacks.” According to FitzGerald, implementing a two-year budget now when it hasn’t been done before – especially before an

Hulaj’s Facebook group, ‘I want to save the land North of Beaver Pond Park in Kanata, Ontario,’ has grown to almost 3,500 in two weeks. Over 400 people who support saving the Beaver Pond walked in protest of the development. BEAVER POND, FROM 1

“We need to halt this to the point where environmental laws can be forced down the throats of the developers so they can’t do what they want to do,” said Hulaj URBAN DEVELOPMENT Developers Urbandale and Richcraft agreed to preserve 40 per cent of the forest, including Trillium Woods. However, the subdivision will block the natural loop in the forest, which allows people to begin and end their walks in the same place. “If you picture a clock, from 3 o’clock to 7 o’clock there is a subdivision,” said Hulaj. “Currently it’s an entire clock in a sensitive forest and they’re not only holing out the middle, they’re taking the loop away.” The developers are moving ahead on the project, with a start date around the middle of July. “The land is designated for development, both in the city’s official plan and in the former city of Kanata’s official plan,” said Mary Jarvis, the land development manager at Urbandale. “July 16 we’ll be in a position to cut the trees, not clear-cut, but cut the trees within the area that’s to be fully developed.” ROADBLOCK Kanata North Coun. Marianne Wilkinson has a meeting scheduled with Bob Chiarelli, and one with the NCC for June 14 to discuss possible options.

“People seem to think we can just wave a wand and change it but it’s not that easy,” she said. “The only way to get (the developers) at this point is to either buy them out or provide better land for them.” She said she is hoping something can be accomplished to stop the development of the forest. “I’m working as hard as I can,” she said. There are no guarantees, however, that the developers will agree to a land swap. “As with any comment that we receive from the public, agencies and the city, we consider all comments; that’s all that I’m willing to say,” said Jarvis. The Endangered Species Act, which was passed in 1998, doesn’t void the zoning passed in the ’80s. “The unfortunate situation is the developer wants to go ahead soon rather than later because the species at risk laws are getting tighter and tighter as time goes on,” said Hulaj. “The reality is just because you have that ability doesn’t necessarily mean that it’s the most profitable and the best way to move forward.” ‘IT’S SO SAD’ Hulaj said it’s a shame that future generations will miss out on the benefits of having an entire forest in their backyard. “All the opportunities for snowshoeing, for cross country skiing, for mountain biking – the loop (will be) gone,” he said.

“Residents will have to walk under hydro wires, along railroad tracks to get to the Trillium Woods.” Hulaj offered the developers to buy the area of land from the Beaver Pond to the railroad tracks in order to maintain the pathway loop that connects the forest but they turned him down, he said. “It’s so sad because the lands are so loved and have been recognized as important and sensitive; this is the last part of the South March Highlands,” he said. “There’s nothing like it.” jessica.cunha@metroland.com

Kanata Food Cupboard update

Memories at the Beaver Pond The Beaver Pond is a place where many Kanata residents spent time while growing up; studying ecosystems on science class field trips, hiking through the woods on a Sunday afternoon with the family or taking the dog for a walk around the pond. This forest is home to countless animals, insects, birds, trees and plants. If the developers go ahead and build their 3,200 home subdivision, where will the wildlife go? More than likely, it’ll die. With 17 species at risk calling the Beaver Pond Forest home, it’s a wonder why the entire area wasn’t given protected status. Even though the Endangered Species Act protects species at risk, it’s not enough to halt the impending subdivion since the area was zoned for development back in the 1980s – which is apparently more important than protecting endangered wildlife. Urbandale and Richcraft agreed to preserve 40 per cent of the lands – but stick a subdivion, with a large increase in people, pets and pollution – and the surrounding areas will slowly die off. An increase in traffic means more animals will be run down in the road; an increase in people means less space for wildlife to call home as residents chase away raccoons, groundhogs and other animals deemed to be destructive; and an increase in domesticated animals mean more predators that wildlife will have to watch for. Remember when developers wanted to build on Young’s Pond in south Kanata? The residents gathered, protested, and eventually, won. The planned subdivion was never built and the pond is still around today for the community to enjoy. Saturday, June 5, over 400 residents gathered at the Beaver Pond to show the city they don’t want a new subdivision choking out a precious natural sanctuary. Hopefully, the developers and the city will take notice, the way they did back in 1999. It’s not impossible. So get out there and make some memories. In a few months, it may be all you have left.

The Kanata Food Cupboard held its annual general meeting on Wednesday, May 26 at St. Paul’s Anglican Church. At the meeting a number of the board members who were up for re-election were returned, and a new member, Marc Dumais, was added. At the same time, Jeff Seeton, who until this meeting served as vicechair, ended his tenure on the board of the Kanata Food Cupboard. In a brief board meeting after the AGM, it was decided that Tom Smellie should continue to serve as chair, Daniel German as secretary, Jenna Sudds as treasurer, while Ian Anderson took on the position of vice-chair. Two annual awards were presented at the AGM. The first, the volunteer of the year award for 2009, in recognition of outstanding contribution and dedication to the KFC by a volunteer, was awarded to Clarence Maheral for his undaunted support and assistance throughout the year.

This is a reasonably clear statement from Feltmate that I appreciate hearing restated from her. But I ask – what does that responsibility really mean? Perhaps she means what I believe she should have said – that the city bears a moral responsibility to see this problem fixed. As someone who lives in the K2L postal code, I know that we are all impacted from house prices to insurance rates as we wait to see this issue resolved. What I was expecting to see at the recently held flood meeting, to explain to Kanata South residents the causes of the flooding, was both information AND action. This is not unreasonable as we are almost at the one year mark since that unfortunate event. I remember it well having experienced first hand the pain of cleaning out destroyed basements with

neighbours and friends, and I understand the fear over this summer’s storm season. I am just hoping that we will avoid another big storm. But hope should not be required at this stage. Action will bring the changes we need. What I expect is a city that cares, and as a result, gets busy at bringing fixes as soon as possible. At the flooding meeting, I gave my comments that I was very disappointed that the city would bring us together for a meeting, yet not have any tangible action to show us on mitigating the risks of future flooding. But what made me upset was the reaction of some of the city’s consultants and engineers. The looks of confusion and apathy that appeared on some of their faces after my comment was, frankly, very disappointing and even surprising to me. Something as simple as using heavy plastic to seal our leaky sewer grates, which was seen as one of the major causes of infiltration to our sewer network and flooding, would show residents that the city is doing what it can

to mitigate things while they wait for the more permanent sealed grates to be ordered and installed. This would also give them time to investigate further solutions, while still giving us some real improvement and protection. And of course, this all ties into future development and the risks associated with that. We all know that development is very important to the health of our city, but that our community requires smart, managed growth. I know that we need to stay vigilant as a community to ensure that we put existing communities first, before new problems are created. That is why I so appreciate the freeze on development that is being planned. This will ensure that we get fixes put in place to our pumping stations. We also need assurances that new development will not have negative repercussions on Kanata, and until we can get that clearly, I say – stop! to the new development.

Kudos to NCC for trail maintenance over hills and rocky terrain while dodging boulders as we bounced unceremoniously along puddle-filled paths that, at times, had us knee-deep in mud. While we did indeed enjoy and cherish those rides, now that our children are all grown up, we certainly appreciate the efforts and consideration of the NCC to make our outing much more comfortable. Kudos!

On an absolutely beautiful morning last Sunday, the husband and I dusted off our two-wheelers and ventured out for a bike ride along the hydro corridor and onto the NCC trails that run behind Bridlewood. We were wonderfully surprised and very pleased to see that the NCC had performed minor miracles to bring about a much smoother surface than we previously recalled. When our two youngest were toddlers we would strap them into little seats attached to our bikes and they would enjoy an outing with us along those same trails; however, the ride was quite different for we vividly recalled pedaling

KFC, FROM 6

The second award for exceptional service for 2009, established to recognize a group of people demonstrating outstanding support to the KFC, was awarded to the Tuesday Night Crew (and accepted by Rick Wall) for their assistance with inventory management, client distribution and stock rotation at the KFC every Tuesday night throughout the entire year. On a more somber note, on Tuesday, May 25, it was found that at some time over the May long-weekend a storage facility belonging to the Kanata Food Cupboard was broken into and vandalized. The vandals were no doubt looking for items to sell and took out their disappointment at not finding anything by destroying some food and emptying the shelves onto the floor. Most of the damage was to the steel security door, which had to be replaced. Lastly, the KFC is seeking input from all members of the community on the direction the KFC should take moving forward. The board hopes to direct itself to viable long-term plans keeping the viewpoints of all key stakeholders in mind. Anyone wishing to assist in this respect is asked to fill out a strategic information questionnaire by contacting Karen Waters or Amanda Burnside at 613-8367847. Please note that any and all information collected for the purposes of this gathering is considered to be and will be treated as private and confidential at all times, and will only be used to support the strategic functioning and decision-making policies of the board of directors.

Volunteers set to patrol pathways JESSICA CUNHA KOURIER-STANDARD Trails in Kanata will soon be patrolled by volunteers on bicycles trained in first aid and CPR. Pathway Patrol members will begin hitting the trails later this month, once mandatory training wraps up. The east end is patrolled by close to 50 people, while the central and south ends also have established groups. “We’re working on making our west end group bigger,” said Monja De Luca, who is in charge of recruiting members. De Luca is hoping to get volunteers from every area in Kanata and Stittsville. Members will make the rounds in pairs on secluded and isolated paths while wearing bright yellow shirts that are easy to spot. All volunteers will be trained for emergencies and carry first aid kits, along with maps and information of the places they patrol. “It’s a group of volunteers who ride along the pathways during daylight hours only,” said De Luca. “Helping tourists who have gotten lost; kids might fall and knick their knees and their parents don’t have a first aid kit on them.”

If people see the volunteers on the pathways, they’ll also be less likely to cause disturbances or vandalize public property, said De Luca, referring to teenagers with too much time on their hands. “It’ll make a healthier and safer community,” said Marilyn Miller, who signed up to become a volunteer. “It’s kids we’re worried about – not just kids but adults too. Just keep the riff-raff away.” 2009 ATTACK PUT SPOT LIGHT ON PATHWAYS Pathway security has been under scrutiny since the November 2009 attack on a 17-year-old male. The teenager was biking home after work on a secluded path when he was hit in the head. He was knocked off his bike and two males began kicking him while he was on the ground. The teenager’s backpack, cell phone, iPod and bicycle were stolen by the attackers. The pathway the teenager was travelling was the bike path from the Kanata Centrum to Goulbourn Forced Road. “Having eyes and visible patrollers on the ground is good,” said De Luca about stopping problems before they begin. Kanata North Coun. Marianne Wilkin-

son said she wants to see Pathway Patrol members bike along the Beaver Pond, local paths that connect the schools and trails through the park systems; anywhere that is isolated from immediate help. “Anywhere that’s fairly isolated,” she said. VISIBLE PRESENCE Volunteers choose the times they want to patrol, generally two to three hours at a time, and always during daylight hours. “We want as little risk to you (the volunteers) as possible,” said De Luca. Pathway Patrol members can also inform the city about items that need to be cleaned up, such as drug paraphernalia. “They don’t have to pick up anything they don’t want to,” said De Luca. “Just call the city at 311 and they’ll get out there within a few days.” The goal is to make the community safer by providing a visible presence within the area. Training for members begins on Saturday, June 12. Registration is required. Anyone interested in becoming a Pathway Patrol volunteer can call De Luca at 613-580-2424 ext. 16044 or email her at pathwaypatrol@ottawa.ca. jessica.cunha@metroland.com

Outreach workers will frequent city parks from June to the end of August and will liaise regularly with police and by-law officers. Engaging youth through recreation, education and outreach is part of the program’s goals. As the police will be closely monitoring calls for service, emerging trends and problem areas, Ottawa residents are invited to report ongoing youth problems in park areas by calling the OPS’s call centre. Where applicable, parents will be held accountable for their children’s actions through the enforcement of curfew and restitution for damage. jessica.cunha@metroland.com

The City of Ottawa’s Green Acres program is the proud patron of one million new native trees planted in the rural parts of the city over the past 10 years. This milestone was reached during the spring planting season, which ended in May. These trees will reach free-to-grow status because the city and its partners go that extra step to provide monitoring and maintenance of the Green Acres plantings. Each of these trees is a little environmental cleaning station; cleaning the air, the water, enriching the soil, providing wildlife habitat and life-giving oxygen and helping prevent soil erosion. “The City of Ottawa’s commitment to supporting and investing in tree planting is greatly appreciated,” said Alan Arbuckle, chair of the Rideau Valley Conservation Authority. The program helps cover up to 50 per cent of the costs for the tree seedlings, site preparation, planting and tending. It also provides landowners with technical advice and guidance. For more information or to see if you qualify for the program, call the LandOwner Resource Centre at 613-6923571.

Students run for Kenya STEPH MURPHY BLUEPRINTS STAFF The High Commissioner of Kenya started A.Y. Jackson Secondary School’s second annual Kenya Run for the Lwak Girls’ High School in Kenya on May 15. Participants in the event walked, jogged or ran the five and 10 kilometre routes along the Trans-Canada Trail. The race directors, A.Y. students Bryan Cole, Grade 12, Emily Hammond, Grade 11 and Kevin Morris, Grade 11, had been planning the race since February. “I’m looking forward to the start,” said Cole. “150 runners – all crowded at the start

line trying to warm up.” It costs $750 to sponsor one of the girls at the Lwak Girls’ High School for a year. While primary education is free in Kenya, students are required to pay for if they want to further their studies. For many of the students at the girls’ school, meeting the required funds can be a struggle. A.Y. has expanded from sponsoring nine girls at the high school to over 70 with help from annual fundraisers such as the Kenya Run and the Kindness for Kenya Benefit SUBMITTED PHOTO Dinner. Last year, 150 students participated, and A.Y. students Emily Hammond and Bryan Cole with His Excellency Simon Nabukwesi, the Kenyan Ambassador to Canada raised $5,000.

Capital clean up CHARLOTTE MCINNES BLUEPRINTS STAFF Students at A.Y. Jackson Secondary School got their hands dirty during Cleaning Up the Capital on May 14 when they spruced up areas of Kanata. Cleaning Up the Capital encourages students to get involved and support the community by coming together and making an effort to keep the city clean and green. The event gives students a sense of community pride by cleaning up parks, bus stops, woodlots, ravines, shorelines and pathways. A.Y. Jackson has been participating in Cleaning Up the Capital since 2001. After the clean-up students are treated to a barbeque where they can relax after a morning of successful work. “Every year A.Y. participates in cleaning up the capital,” said Rachel Snider, a Grade 12 student who has been participating in the

clean up for four years. “Typically the school cleans around the Hazeldean Mall, the Trans Canada Trail, and other parks in the area. We have always had warm weather and the barbeque is so much fun.” While most students find this event enjoyable, others said they see it as a waste of time and pointless because people will keep littering. “Community clean up day seems to be a waste of time to me,” said James Riley, a Grade 12 student. “It’s almost incentive for teenagers, like myself, to litter. Even if we do, kids in high school will pick it all up next year anyways.” Cleaning Up the Capital is an event that encourages people to help the environment in a local way, where they can see the impact they make. Hopefully it makes people think twice before they litter or harm the environment again.

A.Y. Jackson Secondary School’s varsity girl’s soccer team is ripping up the field this year. Over the last few years, A.Y couldn’t get a win and even scoring a goal was a struggle for the team. This year the team, coached by Mr. Barter, has already managed to score 15 goals in five games for a record of 2-2-1. What is the reason for the team’s success? “We just persevere more and I think we click really well as a team, and we all are really motivated to win this year,” said Roshelle Lawrence, one of the newest defenders of the team. “Mr. Barter, of course, is a really great coach.” The most interesting game by far at A.Y. Jackson was a 9-5 victory against Philemon Wright. “It was crazy, goals scored every minute,” said fan and student Darrell Tremblay, who was painted blue, A.Y.’s school colour. “The girls played really hard.” Led by captains Katie Liuzzo and Rhiannon Power, the team hoped to make it to the playoffs.

A slice of happiness DESMOND KNIGHT BLUEPRINTS STAFF A.Y. Jackson Secondary School hosted a charity cake auction for the student body on May 19. All proceeds from this wonderful event are going to underprivileged children in Afghanistan, specifically to those at the Malika Suraia school. The money will be used to buy clothing and school supplies for the children, who are in desperate need of such every day things. The cake auction was organized by Ms. Talbottt’s third period business leadership class, and the project was spearheaded by student Nabil Zazay, whose father is working with the school in Afghanistan. All third period classes have been collecting funds in order to raise money to bid on a variety of delicious donated cakes made by teachers, students and alumni. Each class sent representatives to bid on the cakes, and then the cakes were delivered and consumed . The entire experience was a blast, with everyone, from the bidders to the auctioneers, having a really great time. The cake auction raised over $1,200.

Students at A.Y. Jackson Secondary School completed an obstacle will blindfolded, competed in a log-balance challenge and faced other Survivor-type competitions during the week of May 7 to 12. Students participated in several activities based off of the popular TV show for the grand prize of a $100 gift card to Bayshore Shopping Center. Four teams of students and one team of teachers rose to the challenge of competing in the daily trials. Mr. Hoogenraad’s Grade 12 entrepreneurship class organized and hosted the activities as a class project. The money raised the Survivor games are being given to Kiva, an organization dedicated to lending money to farmers in developing countries. Once the farmers are able to pay the money back, it is lent to another person, and the cycle continues.

Teams consisted of five contestants and during the lunch period of each day, a task was arranged for the students to participate in. The team that failed to accomplish the day’s task was eliminated, similar to the television show’s format. To add another hint of Survivor’s charm to the events, an “immunity idol” was hidden in the school for participants to find, with its location only being revealed through hints. The activities varied from navigating an obstacle course consisting of several pylons and soccer balls while being blindfolded, to Survivor’s frequently-used log balance challenge. On the final day, the last team remaining was disbanded as each individual on the time had to compete against one another for the grand prize. Michael Cillis of Team Hydra, (Grade 9 boys) the lucky finder of the immunity idol, eventually came out on top as the grand winner.

The days of handing assignments in on time are long gone The unwritten life-or-death rule (all right, that’s hyperbolic) of handing assignments in on or before due dates, is now extinct. The new policy seems to be the “five day window” rule, which has taken students by storm at A. Y. Jackson Secondary School. The Ontario Ministry of Education originally proposed the idea of more flexible due dates, which gives students extra school days – after the due date – to hand in work because the ministry felt it was unfair for students to lose marks for late assignments. The ministry felt that handing an assignment in on time is a skill separate from the actual assignment; therefore it is unfair for students to lose marks on their work because it wasn’t handed in on time. This leaves teachers in a tough position. Teachers are encouraged to call

parents on the due date when a student has failed to hand a piece of work in on time. “This would have us sometimes doing more calling than teaching,” said Ms. Abra, an English teacher at the school. The truth is that the five day rule has been abused. Often, due dates approach at rates that are hard for students to keep up with. “A lot of students don’t even begin their assignments until the actual due date,” said student Dan McDonald. The results have been shocking to university professors each year since the policy’s implementation, as students seem to misunderstand the concept of “the due date.” Not only are assignments not being handed in on time, but the quality of the work has also diminished. As students prepare for the final push of this school year, and with teasers of summer weather clashing with numerous assignments, tardiness when handing in work has become a reflection of a student’s initiative. While some students always strive to get their work in on time, the majority make the most of the five day rule.

What do Paul Revere, Harvard University and the Blue Man Group all have in common? They – and much more – were all part of A.Y Jackson Secondary School’s April Boston trip this year. The 50 student participants, including myself, and five teacher chaperones left for “The Athens of America” on April 29 and were ready for four days of fun and adventure. The packed itinerary gave us the opportunity to explore the history and local culture of Boston. The bus ride down took us through New York, Vermont and Massachusetts, as well as some beautiful country road detours thanks to the GPS. After nine hours, we were all glad to get off and stretch our legs at Burlington Mall. Needless to say, most of us left that evening with plenty of shopping bags to add to our luggage. But, we hadn’t travelled so far just to shop. Our group drove to Woburn Memorial High School where we got a tour from the best guides possible – the Woburn students themselves. Our friendly student guides were as excited to show their Canadian visitors around the beautiful campus and cutting-edge facilities as we were to join them in attending their morning classes. By the end of the visit, everyone was scrambling to swap contact information with their guides before returning to the bus, promising to keep in touch with our new friends. Next, our group was privileged enough to

Memories to last a lifetime KATIE ROBERTS BLUEPRINTS STAFF

visit the Harvard University campus where we were shown the area by a humorous and mildmannered senior student. He was able to tell us that, though attending Harvard can cost up to $54,000 in total annual expenses, the experience is well worth it. We also got a look at the Museum of Fine Arts, where we saw beautiful paintings and sculptures as well as ancient artefacts from past civilizations, including real Egyptian mummies. For the historical part of our trip, we participated in another tour, this one following the Freedom Trail. We visited the graves of Paul Revere, Samuel Adams and even John Hancock. We also learned some interesting facts such as how two men, Samuel Prescott and William Dawes, had accompanied Paul Revere on his midnight ride. On the third night of the trip, we attended a showing of a Blue Man Group performance, a unique and thrilling experience. The audience was kept in awe and laughter the entire night, always in anticipation of being splattered with paint, marshmallow goo or any other strange substance used in the performers’ antics. The day of departure eventually arrived, and though we had a wonderful time, we were also ready to return to daily life to rest up from all the excitement. The friends that we made, the laughs that we shared and the new experiences we had, have made the A.Y Jackson 2010 Boston Trip unforgettable for all who participated. We brought home stories and souvenirs, but best of all: memories.

The annual Grad Oscars was held at A.Y. Jackson Secondary School on May 13. Awards were presented to the graduating classes based on personalities and characteristics such as best smile, future prime minister, party starter and future Olympian. Tensions were high as people waited to hear the victor of each award. Everyone got into the spirit of the event, as it got louder and wilder as the night went on. Weeks before the event, sheets were given out to nominate individuals for the awards. After the nominations were tallied, the top nominees were placed on a sheet and the winners were chosen from them.

The show was held in the cafeteria, with tables surrounding the stage. There was free food and drinks for all that attended. Mr. Costello hosted the show, and presented the awards. Those who won an award were given a loot bag and a certificate. The Grad Oscars were organized by Kayla Emmerson and Krista Brunette, and it was a great night for A.Y graduates to come together and celebrate the traits and characteristics of each other.

Quebec. The other transportation such as to the War Museum and from Camp Fortune have to be arranged by the students. While some say that $147 is nothing, lots of students complain that it costs too much and they can’t afford it. With the end of the school year coming close, many graduates will be saving up money for what they really need – university or college tuition. The $147 is not the entire amount of money that some students will pay. Including the cost of prom itself, there is also a hotel room and some other form of transportation that needs to be arranged by the students. Now there is about $200 more flying out of students’ wallets. And the cost of the outfits add even more. Fortunately, some friends of mine who are not going to prom are making their own prom night at the bowling alley, so they won’t miss all the fun. On the other hand, students that are going to prom say that it will be the only night in high school that they will never forget for their entire lives.

concert for seniors during their lunch hour. One woman said the performance was so wonderful she cried during the song Reflections on an English Hymn (Jerusalem). Two days later, the students from both bands packed up their music folders and instruments, and headed off to Dow’s Lake to play at the Tulip Festival. This is the second year A.Y. has performed at the event. Later in the month, the Senior and Junior bands proceeded to the band shell at Andrew Hayden Park, for a concert. People lined up their lawn chairs in front of the band shell on May 20. The spring concert is typically the last performance the band plays for the year, and is their biggest in terms of audience members. Being a part of the band requires commitment; practices start an hour before school, and some performances take place after school so students must dedicate their own time. A.Y.’s students are willing to do this to provide entertainment for their community. There are some perks from being in band other than getting a course credit. The band has been known to travel to different locations across the globe; New York City in 2006, Italy in 2008, and Quebec City in 2009. The band is planning to return to New York City in the spring of 2011. We wish them good luck in their performances abroad.

For grades 10 to 12, band is considered a course at A.Y. Jackson Secondary School. Unlike other courses though, band requires class attendance outside of school hours. It’s spring again, which means there are many opportunities for A.Y. to perform. To start off the long procession of performances, both Senior and Junior bands, with their conductor Linda Taylor, competed at the Kiwanis Music Festival. The Senior Band performed two pieces at Woodroffe High School on April 14, Toccata for Band composed by Frank Erickson, and The Indiana State Band March, by O.R. Farrar. The Junior Band performed on April 13, and played Three Folk Miniatures by Andre Jutras; a Canadian composer, and the Military Escort March by Harold Bennett. Both bands achieved silver. Shortly after, the Senior Band did a performance at Bridlewood Elementary School on April 21 for grades 5 and up. The band played a number of songs, mainly ones that the children could recognize, such as themes from Pirates of the Caribbean, and Let the Sunshine In/Age of Aquarius. Down the road from the school is Glen Cairn United Church, another location where the bands perform. On May 12, the Senior Band performed a

Students celebrate victory

Kanata Kourier-Standard - JUNE 10, 2010

JUSTIN MARENTETTE BLUEPRINTS STAFF Thousands of Canadian students and teachers came together in the Netherlands to commemorate the 65th anniversary of Victory in Europe Day and Liberation Day in May. In a gesture of remembrance and celebration, 7,600 Canadian students symbolically represent each Canadian soldier who died fighting in the Netherlands for freedom.

The students participated in parades – one totally silent – and commemorative wreathlaying ceremonies. Many of the Dutch students shared their knowledge of the sacrifice made by the Canadians – and often knew more about Canadian activity in the Netherlands than students. The Dutch have not forgotten the sacrifices made by the Canadian solders in liberating the Netherlands after five long years of oppression, fear and hunger.

Navigating Roundabouts. The City of Ottawa is installing more and more roundabouts. Roundabouts are actually pretty simple to use and, more importantly, safer than traditional intersections. Because navigating roundabouts is new to many residents of Ottawa, the following tips will help steer you in the right direction. TIPS FOR DRIVERS • Reduce your speed when approaching a roundabout. • Watch for pedestrians and cyclists and be prepared to stop if necessary. • When approaching a roundabout, you will see a yield sign and a thick painted dashed line (yield line). Look to the left for approaching traffic within the roundabout and be prepared to stop. Vehicles in the roundabout have the right of way. • If another vehicle is stopped at the yield line, do not stop on the crosswalk. Keep the crosswalk clear for pedestrians. • Enter the roundabout when there is an acceptable gap in traffic. • Once in the roundabout, you have the right of way over all entering traffic. • Do not attempt to overtake other vehicles, including bicycles. • As you approach your exit, use your right turn signal to indicate your exit. • As you exit the roundabout, maintain your slow speed and watch for pedestrians and cyclists. For tips for pedestrians and cyclists or to learn about navigating two-lane roundabouts, please visit ottawa.ca/roundabouts. Ad # 09-2083-8829 | 394308

The young woman who helped shape OC Transpo bus service in Emerald Meadows in 2007 will be receiving a Governor General’s Medal on Friday, June 11. When OC Transpo planned to eliminate the 161 and 169 bus routes from Grassy Plains Drive, Jean Liu and her mother organized a petition, collecting close to 300 signatures. They successfully lobbied OC Transpo, Jean Liu keeping the existing bus routes and adding the 164. Liu is now graduating from Carleton University with honours and a bachelor of science degree in neuroscience. She maintained an A+ average throughout her four years, which automatically entered her for the award. “When I found out that I had won the Governor General’s Medal, I was extremely excited,” said Liu. “It felt great to be recognized for all of the hard work that I had put into my studies – I had never thought that I could win such a prestigious award just by studying something I found fascinating.”

Liu will be attending Dalhousie University in the fall, studying for her masters in pharmacology and neuroscience. “The most difficult part of moving to a new province will be leaving my family and friends in Ottawa,” said Liu, who is nonetheless excited about the move. “Having lived in this city for the better part of my 21 years, living in Halifax will probably be a drastic change.” Liu, who taught piano at the Kanata Music Academy for several years, said she will be examining the effects of preventative pain medication for surgical patients for her research project. “Pain is something that affects virtually everyone to some degree,” she said. “When someone experiences chronic pain, their entire quality of life can diminish significantly. I believe that research into preventive analgesia can hugely impact the way that chronic pain is treated. I know that if my work is successful, then countless people can benefit from it.” Once she completes her masters, Liu said she is hoping to get her PHD in the same field and become a medical researcher and professor. The Governor General’s Medal awards excellence in academics and is the most prestigious honour students in Canadian schools can receive. jessica.cunha@metroland.com

Dynamic Duo walking to find cure for diabetes JESSICA CUNHA KOURIER-STANDARD Simon and Sam Bricker will be walking for a diabetes cure on Sunday, June 13. Named the new Youth Ambassadors for the Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation (JDRF), Simon and Sam will be leading the warm up exercises for the TELUS Walk to Cure Diabetes. “I’m excited because it’s fun,” said 7-year-old Sam. Both boys were diagnosed with Type 1 Diabetes in 2008. Simon and Sam got a virus that attacked their pancreases, causing both of them to become diabetic. Thanks to a certain genetic marker, the boys were more susceptible, even though diabetes doesn’t run in their family. “I have to take four finger pricks, one needle in the arm and one needle in the leg a day,” said 9-yearold Simon. The finger pricks check the boys’ blood sugar levels while the needles provide a boost in insulin. “Somehow our pancreases stop working,” said Sam, who has the same routine as his brother. DOUBLE TROUBLE The family goes by the team name Team Dynamic Duo, although the boys’ mother, Jill McAnich said

she should have called them Team Double Trouble. When the boys were diagnosed with diabetes, McAnich said she tried not to change things too drastically for them, instead altering small things to keep their blood sugar levels in check.

“

It’s one of those illnesses where they’re so close to finding a cure. • Jill McAnich

”

“I don’t send them to a birthday party and say, ‘No cake,’” she said as an example. “I say, ‘cake in moderation’.” The finger pricks the boys do help McAnich adjust their dietary needs, depending if their blood sugar levels are too low or high. However, if the reading is normal, than there’s nothing to stress about, she said. “That wasn’t very fun, getting

rid of junk,” said Simon, who is in Grade 4 at Bridlewood Community Elementary School, about having to alter his eating habits. “We still get treats once on a while,” said Sam, in Grade 2 at the Turnbull Educational Learning Centre, especially when their blood sugar levels need a boost. ‘THEY’RE SO CLOSE’ Team Dynamic Duo has 18 members walking for a cure. To date, they have raised just over $7,000. “Between $10,000 and $12,000 is our goal,” said McAnich. “We’ve been the top family fundraisers for two years. There is a chance we’ll be the top family team again.” She said she is happy to see that more families are closer to the amount Team Dynamic Duo has raised. “It’s the biggest fundraising event for JDRF. They do a lot of research into cures,” she said. “It’s one of those illnesses where they’re so close to finding a cure.” Walkers can choose to do either the five or 10 kilometre walk. “It’s fun,” said Simon, who plans on completing the 10 kilometre walk this year. “It gets us closer to a cure and we’ll keep doing it until JESSICA CUNHA PHOTO we find a cure.” Simon and Sam Bricker hold up pieces of their diabetes kits.

JESSICA CUNHA KOURIER-STANDARD Creating a perfect cell balance and researching the relative age effect are things you expect a seasoned scientist to be studying. However, A-J Hutchings and Brittany Vandenberg researched these areas for their respective science projects; which took them all the way to the Canada-Wide Science Fair, held in Peterborough, Ont. from May 15 to the 23. The two Kanata residents walked away with thousands in award money thanks to their enlightening research. ‘IMAGINE A CHOCOLATE CHIP COOKIE’ Grade 12 student A-J Hutchings, who attends All Saints Catholic High School, studied how to create a perfect balance in Endogenous Neural Stem Cells (NSCs), which could help with neurological repair in the central nervous system.

NSCs have three main cell types: neurons, oligodendrocytes, and astrocytes. “If you imagine a chocolate chip cookie, your neurons would be the chocolate chips, and then the astrocytes and the oligodendrocytes would be the dough holding everything together,” explained Hutchings. When NSCs separate, they create an imbalance between the three cell types. “Right now with stem cells we just let them differentiate by themselves; they mainly disproportionately become astrocytes and oligodendrocytes with hardly any neurons. So my project was incorporating different chemicals to encourage neuronal growth to create a perfect cell type balance.” Hutchings, who’s step-mother has multiple sclerosis and grandmother was diagnosed with colon cancer, had a personal interest in the outcome of her research. She said she sees the need for more research. “Wanting to find the answers to the questions

Before

out there is basically my motivation.” Hutchings, who hopes to become a neurosurgeon, was born in England and moved to Canada in Grade 10. “I found myself on a study permit and unable to work during the summer months, so I took summer co-op,” she said, where she worked at a laboratory doing research. Hutchings took home the Manning Innovation Achievement Award, the Manning Young Canadian Innovation Award and honourable mention in the health sciences senior category. ‘A HUGE ADVANTAGE’ Brittany Vandenberg was the youngest contestant in the science fair at only 12 years of age. A Grade 7 student at Joan of Arc Academy, Vandenberg wanted to determine whether the relative age effect existed within organizations she knew. SUBMITTED PHOTO

“It’s about whether people born earlier in the year have an advantage over people born later in the year in school, sports and other activities,” she explained. She studied four organizations: Kanata Soccer, the National Ballet School, Joan of Arc Academy and the National Hockey League. “What I found out was yes, people born earlier in the year do have a huge advantage over people born later in the year because they are more mature mentally and physically,” said Vandenberg. “When you’re four years old and you start playing soccer, for example, someone born in January is 11 months older than someone born in December. So what happens is, the person born

So they get picked for the better teams, and eventually as they get older, they keep getting picked for the better teams because they are stronger. As they reach a certain age they’ve had more experience than the person born in December because they’ve been picked for the better teams.” Vandenberg got the idea from her father, Jack, who mentioned the relative age effect to her after reading about it. “She’s quite the sponge,” said her father. “She absorbs information easily.” Vandenberg, who hopes to become a veterinarian, won second place in the life sciences junior JACK VANDENBERG PHOTO category and received a schol- Vandenberg, seen here with her awards from arship from the University of the regional and canada-wide fairs, took home Western Ontario. $2,700 in scholarship money.

Kanata Council Notes Marianne Wilkinson Kanata North Beaver Pond gathering was a great success. I would like to thank all who came to the Beaver Pond last Saturday to support maintaining this wonderful piece of land. The situation is very difficult since the land was approved for development by city council some years ago, and the Ontario Municipal Board overturned the appeals from community members, including myself, and approved the development. My view is that until the development actually happens, there is still a chance to save all or some of these land,s and that’s what I’m working towards. KNRC - The final design for the Kanata North Recreation Complex will be presented at a public meeting on June 23 from 7 to 9 p.m. in the Mlacak Centre. Waste Management will be at my Ward Council on June 21 to present plans for a new landfill and recycling facility. 613-580-2474

Annual parade marks end of exciting year 872 KANATA KIWANIS ROYAL CANADIAN AIR CADET SQUADRON The 872 Kanata Kiwanis Royal Canadian Air Cadet Squadron finished off an exciting, fun-filled year with their Annual Parade and Review on June 6 at the Richmond Arena. The 100 cadets on parade proudly displayed many of the things they had learned over the past year, with dynamic displays from the band and the drill team. The Ceremonial Review by Brigadier General Parent was followed by the presentation of Squadron Awards and speeches from those involved with Air Cadets. Warrant Officer 1 Kofi Gyan was presented with the MWO Dan Demers Memorial Award as well as the Lord Strathcona Medal, which is the highest award that can be bestowed upon a cadet in recognition for exemplary performance in physical and military training. LAC Ines Lopez-Espinosa received the Top Recruit award from Glenn Bruneau, chair of the 872 sponsoring committee. Following the parade, the cadets were joined by family, friends and guests to enjoy a reception and static displays describing many of the activities they had participated in over the past year. Displays included information about bi-

athlon, bush weekends, marksmanship, flight, drill, survival, ground school, band, and the Inter Provincial Cadet Exchange trip to five provinces. 872 cadets will finish off their year with a fun day at Karters Korners before many of them head off to all-expense paid summer camps or employment in locations all across Canada. May was a busy month for 872 Squadron. Our cadets participated in the Spring Bush Weekend, Gliding Day, Aviation Day and Helicopter Flight, Tag Day and Aviation Day in Montreal. The Sponsoring Committee also held our 1st Annual Fundraising Golf Tournament and Auction and we would like to thank the many donors and sponsors that helped make that event a success. 872 Kanata Kiwanis Royal Canadian Air Cadet Squadron’s motto “To Learn, To Serve and To Advance” is complemented by our aims; to develop the attributes of good citizenship and leadership, to promote physical fitness and to stimulate the interest of youth in aviation and aeronautics. For more information, please visit our website at www.872-squadron-rcac.ca and we look forward to meeting you at A.Y. Jackson High School at 6:30 p.m. starting mid-September.

Percentage of children walking and biking to school less than half of what it was in 1980. According to a presentation to the City’s Transportation Committee last week, the percent of children walking or cycling to school is less than half of what it was in 1980. In 1980 between 70 and 75 per cent of children walked or cycled to school. Today, only 30 or 35 per cent walk or cycle. This change has led to a number of problems. Because many communities were planned when children walked or cycled to school, traffic congestion was not a consideration when school sites were selected.

arti-FACTS: antique, heritage preservation day CANADIAN ASSOCIATION FOR THE CONSERVATION OF CULTURAL PROPERTY Canadian homes are full of antiques and heritage objects which may be in need of some special care, but it is often hard to find an expert who can give reliable advice

on how to save those treasured heirlooms. Conservators have the training and the expertise to help preserve these treasures for years to come. arti-FACTS: Antique and Heritage Preservation Day aims to bring the public and conservators together. Time and use can take a toll on

even the most carefully cared for objects. The Canadian Association for the Conservation of Cultural Property (CAC) is organizing the arti-FACTS event in order to provide the public with information on how to preserve those special items. For a $5 fee, people are invited

to bring in their objects for an individual preservation consultation with practicing conservators from both private businesses and cultural institutions. The conservators will provide information on how to store, handle and care for the artifacts, and explain what conservation and restoration treatments are available. Other conference events will include workshops, lectures, poster presentations, and the proclamation of Heritage Preservation Week by Mayor Larry O’Brien.

The CAC was organized in 1972 to promote responsible preservation of the cultural property that gives Canadians a sense of place, history, human innovation and artistic expression. arti-FACTS: Antique and Heritage Preservation Day will be held on June 12 from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. at Library and Archives Canada (395 Wellington Street, Ottawa). The CAC is a charitable organization. Please visit the CAC on the web for more information at http:// www.cac-accr.ca.

A good deed can go a long way, and students at St. Isidore Catholic School are ready to send deeds flying across the city and the nation. Dressed in matching T-shirts, more than 500 students filled the school’s gym on Tuesday, June 8, as the Pay It Forward movement was launched. The concept – which began as a book and was later turned into a movie – encourages people to do nice things for other people without any expectation of a reward. Instead, the recipient of the good deed is asked to Pay It Forward by doing a favour of any kind for anyone else. Grade 6 student Janelle Rowsel said she learned “to be nice to everyone” and plans to put the lesson in action.

DEEDS, FROM 32

Suggestions ranged from helping someone get up after they have fallen, bringing in the garbage cans at home without being asked, and sharing Freezie money if someone forgets theirs at home. The children were clear on the movement’s concept, shouting a raucous Pay It Forward! when asked what they should tell someone they have helped. The co-chair of the St. Isidore parent council reminded the students that their actions count. “No act of kindness is ever too small,” said Donna-Marie Flanagan.

Kanata Kourier-Standard - JUNE 10, 2010

“I’ll probably help people in the schoolyard,” Janelle said. Ottawa police Chief Vern White and West CarletonMarch Coun. Eli El-Chantiry attended the launch. White said the grassroots nature of Pay It Forward is a good fit for youngsters. “What I like about this is the reminder every month,” White said, alluding to the school’s plan to have students wear their Pay It Forward T-shirts on monthly Spirit Days. “Canada is an extremely kind country,” White said,

adding that many people in this country volunteer their time and donate to charities. “There’s already a strong level of support and this is about reminding people to be kind.” When White spoke to the students, he told them that he has benefited from the kindness of others. “People who were kind to me helped me get where I am as a police officer,” he said. As the children awaited the arrival of the police chief, councillor and other guests, they shared their ideas of good deeds they can carry out.

Kanata Kourier-Standard - JUNE 10, 2010

Caregivers pause for a breath of fresh air A bit of magic happened at the Galilee Retreat Centre in Arnprior on May 12. It was the 4th annual Caregiver Retreat Day, hosted by Friends of Hospice Ottawa and sponsored by City of Ottawa community support funds. Caregivers are those who assist their loved ones during life–threatening illnesses, usually at home, and often on a 24/7 basis. For many of these caregivers, their last break may have been years ago. The day started early, but not as early as most of these caregivers are used to. It was obvious that some had trepidations about taking a day for themselves, and entrusting the care of a loved one to someone else. Some even cancelled at the last moment. Those that were determined to go, or had been strongly encouraged – even coerced – by family, boarded the bus at 8 a.m. and headed out with two nurses and three volunteers, and every detail of the activities had been meticulously planned and reviewed, so that participants would be able to be nurtured and pampered for the full eight hours. People signed up for holistic treatments like Reiki and Reflexology. The care-giving parents, spouses, children, and siblings of many loved ones spent meaningful time walking among the ancient trees of the forest walk, or on the life enriching path of the

labyrinth. The air was fraught with discernable feelings of relief, relaxation, lingering uncertainties, and sometimes raw emotions associated with the pressures of caregiving. Later on, those who needed rest took a room to sleep in. Others learned how to journal; to record their hopes, and regrets, and the special legacies of those they love. Our music therapist Courtney took us on a melodious journey where we recorded the day in a spontaneous harmony of sounds. Finally, in a very comforting and personal meditation, Ayya M. grounded us, and prepared us for the journey back to reality. As we gathered the caregivers, now care takers, on the banks of the Ottawa river for a picture, the smiles were easy to capture and preserve. These extraordinary individuals stood restored, refreshed and maybe a little regretful that this day had to end. It is one thing to talk about the need for respite for caregivers. It is entirely another to have the privilege of facilitating a much needed time to re-energize and recharge. We who had the honour of assisting with the day are humbled and blessed to have been part of this wonderful initiative. Friends of Hospice Ottawa would welcome the chance to help unburden a caregiver you know of and care about. Visit us at www.friendsofhospiceottawa.ca to find out more.

Tooth Root

Many patients are concerned that any tooth replacements may not look, feel or function like the originals. With dental implants, however, there is no need for concern because, dental implants actually replace not only the missing tooth or teeth, but the roots too, for complete stability and a natural look and feel. If you’re missing more than one tooth, ask how implants can function as anchors to secure and stabilize bridges and dentures.

Call us to ﬁnd out how dental implants can bring back the appearance of your natural smile, and the conﬁdence Jawbone that will come with it.
