Burning not option for proposed dump Technology too costly without city garbage contract: Waste Management JESSICA CUNHA KOURIER-STANDARD Waste Management Canada said it would have proposed building an incinerator instead of another landfill if the city had given it control over residential garbage. Back in 2006 when the company first submitted a proposal to the city, it asked for a guaranteed amount of residential waste to make Wheelabrator technology a viable option, said Ross Wallace, site manager at the Carp Road landfill. “What was asked is that we would need a commitment from the city for a certain amount of the residential waste stream for a certain number of years to make the Wheelabrator option financial viable,” he said. Stittsville Coun. Shad Qadri said the biggest issue with the technology is it’s old. “It’s not as clean as today’s technology,” said Qadri. “Wheelabrator technology, if you look at the loca-

tions in the U.S., the majority of them are near bodies of water because that technology requires a huge amount of water supply. That could be one of the reasons the city turned them down because at Carp Road we don’t have that kind of water supply.” The new landfill site would have to charge a much higher dumping fee, and with other sites nearby, it would lose out on a lot of business, said Wallace. “We don’t control enough of the waste stream,” he said. “It’s got to be financially viable.” He said the reason Waste Management put a 10-year plan in the 2010 proposal was because the company believes new and better waste technologies will be available by that time. “Right now today, there’s nothing else available but mass burn and landfills,” said Wallace, who lives within 500-metres of the dump in Almonte.

Beach battle

Public or private — who owns the beach at Constance Bay? The City of Ottawa has thrown its hands up in the air saying the only thing it can say with all certainty is that it’s not the municipality’s. Landowners along the shoreline say the beach is private property. The hundreds of people from the city’s west end who regularly use the beach say it’s traditionally public property. The Kourier-Standard is exploring the dispute in a three-part series: Beach battle. This week in part two we talk to those who don’t want to see the beach privatized. JESSICA CUNHA KOURIER-STANDARD The debate over the privatization of Constance Bay beach is still raging in the city’s west end. Rick Dooher, the creator behind Friends against Privatizing Constance Bay Beaches said his group is prepared to fight the issue in court. “These people from the beach, they’re waterfront owners and they have money and I think they’re prepared to keep fighting,” he said. He said he feels confident that the waterfront property owners will not win. “I’ve gone through the court documentation on the previous two visits they’ve had to court,” he said. “Even their lawyer’s opinion, in order to solve this, said it will have to go to Supreme Court. Their lawyers aren’t even saying they’re winning.” The deeds for the houses say they own to the water’s edge, which Dooher’s group is arguing to mean to the high water line. Dooher said the landowners along Lane

Street are taking the house plans in the wrong context, interpreting water’s edge to mean wherever the water happens to be that day. “People are being chased off the beach,” said Dooher. “I think the main idea of the people who own the beach front property is that they own to the water’s edge. This is all speculation on their part. They say they have documentation but it’s been thrown out of court twice.” The issue is affecting people in the community, as well as those from outside the area who use the beach. “People are buying homes up here with the idea that they have access to the community beach,” said Dooher. “This is a selling feature to the real estate agents. They move up here because they want to be closer to the beach or whatever they have up here and suddenly they’re thrown off the beach. “This whole idea of the real estate being privatized, it doesn’t start here, it starts down in Dunrobin or Kanata north. Anyone who can grab the property on their beach front property will,” he said. Dooher and his group held a fundraiser at

Three police officers speak with beachgoers on Sunday, July 4 at Constance Bay beach. A letter delivered to residents says officers will no longer be responding to trespassing calls.

The Point Dining Lounge on Sunday, July 11. “It was very good,” said Rick Dooher, the creator behind the group and a lifelong resident of Constance Bay. “We had well over 300 people. The money will be used for any signage that we need, it will be used for legal aid, keeping our office going. No one is getting paid for any of this.” ‘IT’S NOT A VICTORY’ The Ottawa police delivered a letter to Lane • Business law • Real estate • Wills and Estates • Environmental law

Street residents on Friday, July 9 stating officers will not be kicking people off the beach unless the homeowner can prove the person is on their property. They will continue to take calls about criminal activity on the beach, however. The city also told residents they would have to move the no trespassing signs off city property and closer to their homes. BEACH BATTLE, SEE 3

NEW COMMITTEE Jane Currie, a moderator of the Friends against Privatizing Constance Bay Beaches, is now heading up the creation of a new group – the Beach Protocol Implementation Committee. “It’ll be a fair committee for the whole community,” said Currie. “Not just dealing with a few people’s interests.” Currie wants to see property owners and beach users come together to ﬁnd a solution that everyone can live with. “I’d like to see at least the beaches open to everyone in the community,” she said. “A lot of people don’t want outsiders coming in because of the limitations.” Many people from the surrounding areas, including Kanata, Dunrobin and Stittsville, use the beach regularly. If privatization occurs, or if it is deemed solely a community beach, residents outside Constance Bay will no longer be allowed to sun themselves with the exception of using the access lanes. “If people from Kanata want to put up issues for the privatization committee we’ll certainly deal with them,” said Currie. “My ﬁrst goal is to have it available to all the community and have the waterfront people agree to that. I know there’s a lot of concern about people outside the community using them.” The committee is open only to residents who live in the boundaries of the old Torbolton Township. “We want to calm down the whole situation,” said Currie. “Figure out who can use

(the beach), how they can use it, when they can use it.” ‘BUSINESS AS USUAL’ As the weather continues to warm up and students are now on summer holidays, Dooher said people should continue to use the beach but avoid causing trouble for the homeowners. “It should mean business as usual, enjoy the beach,” he said. “Just stay off their property, and that’s where the retaining wall is. Don’t aggravate them, don’t cause trouble down there. They’re normal people too. If they have something to say, just don’t meet them with aggression.” Police presence at the beach was heavy before the delivery of the Ottawa Police Service letter. On Sunday, July 4, four ofﬁcers showed up after being called by one of the beachfront residents. Ofﬁcers conducted regular sweeps of the area when complaints were lodged by Lane Street residents, said a member of the force. “It’s not our interpretation, it’s the city’s interpretation,” he said. “We haven’t had any real issues to date, most people just leave when asked,” he said. Beachgoers no longer have to worry about being asked to leave by police unless they are engaged in illegal behaviour, such as public drinking. “They should stay right where they are and carry on,” said Dooher about whether or not beachgoers should clear the area if asked to leave by residents in the area. “As long as you’re abiding by the law – not drinking, just enjoying the sun – I wouldn’t move.” jessica.cunha@metroland.com

“It’s not a victory,” said David Goodkey, co-chair of the advocate group and resident of Constance Bay. “It took a whole week (to get that letter). We’ve tried our best but we won’t be communicating with those (Lane Street) people anymore.” The beach has been used publicly since 1929, said Dooher. Chelsea Dolliver, a Katimavik resident, has been frequenting the beach for years since she was a young girl. “After all these years of people going to the beach there, why should it be private now?” she asked. “It’s not fair to people who have been going there for several years. I don’t think you should buy a house on a public beach if you are not happy with it.” Over the May long weekend, Dolliver said she and her friend were kicked off the beach by police. When they challenged the ofﬁcer, they were told they would be charged for trespassing. Instead, they left, she said. “It sounds like I’m very against the whole privatization thing, but I get how the garbage and drunken noise gets annoying,” she said. “It’s understandable for the police to come and kick off teens drinking or loud groups – but my friend and I, quietly sitting alone are not hurting anyone.” Another main issue of contention is the access lanes to the beach. “There are beach access lanes being opened in the next short while that haven’t been opened properly, encroachment issues that haven’t been dealt with properly,” said Dooher, who wants to ensure all access lanes are clearly visible and assessable. Some residents have expanded their

property onto the access lanes with garages, fences and other items. There are 39 access areas but most are shut or impassable.

Enjoy jazz at the Kanata Seniors’ Centre

Weather wimps When we look at the temperatures of a few decades ago, we’ve become weather wimps. Even though Ottawa is sweating for relief from this heat wave, the nation’s capital is still sitting cooler than it did in the good ol’ days. Temperatures have consistently soared above the 30 degrees mark over the past week or so causing residents to scramble for their air conditioning – or wish they had a unit. According to The Weather Network, the hottest July day on record was July 4, 1913 when temperatures hit a blistering 37.8 – without any help from the humidity. And we’re complaining about the heat we have now. Is it possible that we’re becoming wimps? Some studies suggest that air conditioners can have detrimental effects on the body, one of which is making it more difficult for a person to adjust and adapt to the heat. The inability to adjust to outdoor temperatures has been noticed in those who spend a lot of time in air conditioned climes. It’s been suggested that the stress of the drastic temperate change has lead to an increase in heat-related deaths. A study by Oxford University has also found a direct correlation between the use of air conditioners in the workplace and a rise in illnesses. The study suggests an increase of 40 per cent in sick days is related to air conditioning. Something to think about before cranking the a/c as Ottawa heads into another heat wave. Check out how July this year compares to 2009 and historic highs. Record temperatures July 5, 1897 — 36.1C July 6, 1912 — 35C July 7, 1921 — 36.7C July 8, 1897 — 36.1C July 9, 1911 — 35.6C 2009 temps July 5 — 24.8C July 6 — 22.5C

Please save our Beaver Pond To: Mayor Larry O’ Brien and the City of Ottawa The debate of the Beaver Pond’s future has come to end in a most injust position, and my fellow citizens and I are doing everything we can to persuade the City of Ottawa to avoid cutting down the north side of the Beaver Pond. This is not a small, unimportant issue that can be easily overlooked; quite on the contrary, actually. This idea is a problem to citizens from all over west Ottawa who often come to enjoy this small bit of nature, perhaps the only one Kanata has left. See, 20 years ago, Kanata mostly consisted of forest, rocks, ponds, and nature in general. It is very understandable to diminish those natural resources and convert them into homes. Kanata would be no city if there were no residents living in this wonderful city. Unfortunately, however, many people would agree with me when I state that construction workers have gone a little bit too

far into business and not enough into consideration of nature when deciding to cut down the north side of the Beaver Pond to build 3,000 homes. Isn’t Goulbourn Forced Road, Terry Fox Drive and everywhere else enough? I think we could both agree that people love Kanata because of the Beaver Pond and its lovely surrounding nature. Who could blame them when it’s the one and beautiful natural thing left? If we cut down the north side, we will destroy what attracts the future residents of the future homes that will replace the north side of the Beaver Pond. There will be nothing left. No nature. No money. We also must consider not only the financial angles, but also what we are doing to the greatest ecosystem in Ottawa. After cutting down nearly ever single ecosystem around, this is nature’s last resort, the animals’ last hope.

To the editor, With all the talk about the Ottawa Jazz Festival I wonder how many folks realize that every Friday afternoon from 1 to 3 p.m. – Thursday afternoon’s during the summer – for a number of years, we have been having a jazz fest at the Kanata Seniors’ Centre. The band is called The Geriatric Jazz Band. Ken Backwell is their leader. They invite everyone who comes to the centre to join them in the lounge and be entertained. You will be encouraged to sing along if you wish, songbooks are provided. Ken leads the singing and he also plays harmonica with the band. Ken Backwell directs another band called Souper Jazz. Why the name Souper? Well, for many years this group of talented senior musicians have been raising money for the soup kitchen run by the The Shepherd’s of Good Hope. They feed the hungry down in the Market area. During Jazz Fest, instead of just going out and enjoying the festivities, these guys entertained at the Sparks St. Mall, the Market, and at a cottage near Buckingham to raise money for the soup kitchen. They raised over $2,000. So if you happen to be out and about and hear a Jazz Band playing check it out. After listening to these guys play for a while, you will continue on your way with a smile on your face and a melody in your heart. The folks that come to the senior centre and sing along with the Geriatric Jazz Band every week get that same feeling. M. Eileen Robinson Katimavik

BEAVERPOND, FROM 4

If we cut this down, the animals will also suffer, from having nowhere else to go. The Beaver Pond forest has the highest ecological value and biodiversity out of all areas in Ottawa. Doesn’t that mean something?! The Canadian Shield rock around the Beaver Pond lasted more than a billion years on this planet, yet you plan to destroy it with explosives. The highest point in Kanata lives here; a seven metre high hill. Why go through all that trouble to destroy it, along with

200-year-old trees and better yet, an endangered species?! You can never rebuild rock and its beauty. This is the last wilderness area/forest in the city, and when it’s gone, it’s never coming back. Not only is it painful for so many living things, including people everywhere in Ottawa, but it’s so troubling and difﬁcult to destroy this area in the ﬁrst place. So why not have peace? It’s this desperation for money (which you may not even earn in comparison to the expenses to diminish this powerful ecosystem) that is making this world lose

Check your smoke alarm CITY OF OTTAWA Did you know that working smoke alarms can cut your chances of dying in a fire by 50 per cent? In Ontario, having working smoke alarms is not only a good idea -- it’s the law. Ottawa Fire Services recommends you install a smoke alarm on every level of your home, and outside your sleeping areas. Test your smoke alarms every month and change the batteries twice a year when you change your clocks. A working smoke alarm and a home fire escape plan will significantly increase your chances of surviving a fire.

KOURIER-STANDARD STAFF Ottawa police have arrested six teens in connection with a rash of thefts from vehicles in Kanata. The teens face more than 40 criminal charges for breaking into unattended vehicles. An 18-year-old and a 19-year-old were arrested on July 7 and charged with six counts of theft and six counts of possession of stolen property. A boy under the age of 18 has been charged with six counts of theft, six counts of possession of stolen property and one count of taking an auto without the owner’s consent. Police also charged a 17 year old with poossession of stolen property. Police have also arrested an 18year-old Ottawa man and a 19-yearold man from Perth, charging them with trespassing at night and attempted theft. The teens have all been released from custody and await trial. Police say the six teens targeted unlocked vehicles in residential neighbourhoods for global positioning devices and other articles of value left in unattended vehicles. Police are urging the public to remove items of value from their vehicles and to secure them at all times. Police offer the following tips to minimize the risk of becoming a target for theft from vehicles. • Don’t leave personal identification, vehicle registration or insurance certificates, or credit cards in your vehicle. • Remove valuables and shopping bags from view. This includes loose change. • Never leave your vehicle running and unattended. • Always lock the doors. • Never leave your car or house keys in your vehicle. • Park in well lit areas with pedestrian traffic. • Park your vehicle facing the street. • Have motion detector lights on the outside of your house.

its oxygen and convert it to gases that support global warming. As you can see, this problem doesn’t only revolve around residents near the Beaver Pond. The bottom line is that you can’t build an artiﬁcial pond and be surprised when the city’s largest ecosystem is difﬁcult to be carelessly destroyed in exchange for 3,000 houses. I sincerely hope that I have caught your attention and consideration towards this issue. Victoria Suwalska Kanata

Kanata Kourier-Standard - JULY 15, 2010

BLAIR EDWARDS KOURIER-STANDARD A developer is asking the city to lift a hold on a 217-unit housing project in Bridlewood. Last year the city voted to delay the development until it could fix traffic problems on Stonehaven Drive and Richmond Road. The development is located on nearly 17 hectares of land east of Stonehaven Drive, between Stonemeadow Drive and Sawyer Way. The Ontario Municipal Board later ruled the city had until April 1, 2013 to finish the road improvements. The city has since approved a plan to add turning lanes at the intersec-

tions at Stonehaven and Richmond and Richmond and West Hunt Club roads and to extend the turning lanes at both intersections for longer merge times. The road improvements are expected to cost around $1 million. HOLDING Urbandale Corp. is asking the city to lift the holding order since a solution to the area’s traffic problems has been identified and will be completed by the end of the year. The city plans to start work on the road improvements in September and finish in November. But the developer still has several hurdles to clear before the work can

start on the housing project, said Kanata South Coun. Peggy Feltmate. “While a solution has been identified it has not been implemented yet,” said Feltmate. “I don’t understand why Urbandale would have applied to lift the holding zone. “They have to ensure the city is satisfied with the solution,” said Feltmate. Even then, Urbandale must still wait for the city to complete improvements to the Hazeldean Pumping Station, said Feltmate. The city placed a hold on development in areas of Kanata serviced by the station after concerns were raised over its pumping capacity in 381288

land development. “We hope . . . the city can assign some of the additional capacity to 310 Stonehaven,” said Jarvis. It will take four to six months to receive draft approval for the development, said Jarvis, including the engineering design, said Jarvis. Urbandale wants to begin construction of the homes as soon as possible, said Jarvis. “We have pent up demand,” she said. “There’s a severe supply issue with single family homes.” Some customers have been waiting nearly six years to purchase one of the single-family homes, said Jarvis. blair.edwards@metroland.com

Urbandale wants hold lifted on housing project

LANDFILL, FROM 1

Kanata Kourier-Standard - JULY 15, 2010

However, Qadri said the 10-year span is a “fallacy of their proposal.” “In reality, they’re looking for 6.5 million cubic metric tonnes of capacity,” he said. “If they can fill that capacity in 10 years, then the shelf life is 10 years. But if it takes them 30 years to fill, then that capacity will be 30 years.” DIVERSION RATE The current landfill has a diversion rate of less than 30 per cent and Wallace said that rate is not expected to grow in the first few

years of the new dump. “We still have quite a way to go,” said Wallace. Qadri said he wanted to see the provincial goal of 60 per cent diversion rate reached before the creation of a new landfill. “Give me 60 per cent diversion then we’ll look at other options,” he said. “They are working towards 400,000 tonnes of landfill – that’s what this project is all about. First they want to do landfill then they’ll look at diverting. And that diversion will depend upon how much they can divert and market demand.” Wallace said that 60 per cent diversion is a

difficult rate for the company to reach on its own, even with the introduction of the green bin, but in conjunction with the other waste disposal companies in the area it could be an attainable goal. He did not comment on when that percentage could be reached or how much the new site is looking at diverting. “We want to help get to that number,” he explained. “We’re looking at recycling in a whole different way now.” Waste Management has a Green Squad, said Wallace that helps commercial businesses better manage and separate recycling and waste material. “We’re going to go after as much as we can,” he said. “This project, even though it’s called the West Carleton Environmental Centre, their first prerogative is to look at and go forward with a 400,000 tonne expansion of the landfill,” said Qadri. PROVINCIAL GARBAGE Wallace said the new dump will not be accepting garbage from all across the province, only from the areas known as “good neighbours.” “Ninety per cent of the waste is from the City of Ottawa, residential and commercial,” he said. “The other 10 per cent we keep for our good neighbours; Smith Falls, Carleton Place, out towards Brockville, a little from the Kingston area. They have nowhere else to go. “It doesn’t mean we’ll be taking waste from all over the province.” The garbage mound will be lower than at the existing dump, said Wallace, with the peak reaching just above the tree line. The new centre is less than half as big as the original one proposed in 2006, he said. The current landfill has five gas-to-energy generators, which power around 6,000 homes. There is an opportunity to add three more engines with the new landfill, said Wallace. “It’s pure landfill gas,” he said. “There’s a lot we do besides just landfilling.” But the councillor said he doesn’t agree. “Landfilling is a 1900s solution for handling garbage,” said Qadri. “It’s an antiquated way of doing garbage. To landfill garbage is the cheapest option and most profitable option for anyone who participates in that.” Wallace said odour will not be an issue with the new site since the gas collection power will be enhanced with the use of vertical and

horizontal pipelines. “The gas systems will be there from day one, unlike the one now which is a retrofit.” Residents also don’t have to worry about contaminated drinking water, which was an issue brought up during the June meeting, said Wallace. “There’s no groundwater flow towards the residential areas. We have it very well monitored.” COMMUNITY INITIATIVES Waste Management is looking at putting in recreational space for community use on their new site, said Wallace. The space could be used for greenhouses, sports fields and an off-leash dog park. “We get accused they’re just smoke screens and fluff,” said Wallace. “That’s not true.” He said he’s seen similar initiatives work at other landfill sites. A host fee is charged to those who use the recreational facilities and the money is put in control of the councillors to use for community initiatives. “This generates in excess of $1 million a year,” said Wallace. The money can then be used for community-based structures, “Like a new skate park,” he said. However, Qadri said Waste Management doesn’t have city approval yet. “On this current site they would have to come back to the city for zoning for recreational facilities,” he said. “They don’t have that zoning right now. They can talk about this wonderful scenario but they’re putting the cart before the horse.” Wallace said the company is in talks to build an on-site wildlife habitat centre with Ducks Unlimited Canada, and plans to expand its outdoor education programs with the local schools and service organizations. “It’s too bad some of our opponents are just looking at the landfill portion of the proposal and not the whole thing,” he said. “Their input is obviously needed but I would say look at the whole project and what we do, not just the landfill.” But the dump portion of Waste Management’s proposal is still the focus among those who live near the site. “My community still feels the same way they did four years ago, they don’t want another landfill,” said Marlene Labelle, Stittsville’s representative on the Waste Management project advisory committee. “It’s very frustrating.”

TAX CUTS The Liberal government has linked the added revenue from the HST to corporate tax cuts that are intended to make Ontario more attractive to businesses and foreign investment. Horwath said that the money the average family pays in HST – estimated at $800 annually – shouldn’t be handed to business. “Not a penny of the $800 will go to any services to help families in Ottawa or families in Kanata,” she said. “It will all be given away in huge corporate tax cuts.” Horwath said an NDP government would tie business tax cuts to job guarantees. Asked if her party would repeal the HST, Horwath said it would be difﬁcult to undo the tax completely, but changes can be made. “The ﬁrst thing I would do as premier would be to call the prime minister and negotiate a better deal for Ontario,” Horwath said. She referred to a Nova Scotia provincial election where the opposition ran on a small HST rollback, including removal of the tax from home heating costs. “There are parameters we can look at even without the federal government’s involvement,” she said. “Everything’s on the table. A total reversal is on the table.”

Building a foundation of trust... one home at a time

Andrea Horwath steps carefully over the sledgehammers and saws, paint cans and plaster, placing her high heels gingerly on the sawdustcovered ﬂoor. The Ontario NDP leader visited Kanata on Tuesday, July 13, to make a point about the new HST, and a home renovation job was the right backdrop for the message. “Off-the-books, cash work is a really serious concern,” Horwath said while standing in the midst of the work site inside a home on Kenins Crescent in Kanata Lakes. “The pressure will increase to make the underground economy grow.” Horwath was joined by Carl Taillefer, son of the owner of Renovatek Construction, the company upgrading ﬂoors, paint, railings and drywall inside the home. He said the company is paying more for the gasoline and maintenance of vehicles, just like other Ontario residents, but may now face demands for higher wages and stiffer competition from underground contractors who do cash jobs that don’t include the HST. “Small business owners get a double hit,” Horwath added, pointing to the reduced disposable income in the province, which may cut demand for home renovations. “As costs go up and demand goes down, (Taillefer) can’t employ as many people,” she said.

Ontario NDP leader Andrea Horwath steps out of Queen’s Park and into a home renovation project in Kanata Lakes on July 13 to speak about the HST. Horwath and a local contractor said the new tax will damage small businesses while prompting greater use of underground – tax-free – construction businesses.

NEVIL HUNT KOURIER-STANDARD

Conservatives refuse to amend bankruptcy act BLAIR EDWARDS KOURIER-STANDARD The federal government won’t support changes to the Bankruptcy Insolvency Act giving pensioners preferred status over other creditors in the event a company goes bankrupt, said Carleton-Mississippi Mills MP Gordon O’Connor. The MP spoke to a group of former Nortel employees during one of his In Your Area Days at his constituency office in Tony Marsh Bridlewood on Monday, July 5. Several former employees asked O’Connor why he and his government did not support Bill C-501, a bill calling for preferred creditor status for pensioners during bankruptcy proceedings. In June, the bill passed a second reading by a vote of 144 to 111 and was referred to the Industry committee for review. But Parliament’s Speaker ruled that since a clause in the bill calls for public spending and private members bills cannot require public money, the bill can’t return to the House for a third reading. Twelve Tories broke ranks to vote for the bill, while 111, including O’Connor, the government’s House whip, voted against it. “We’re not going to change it,” O’Connor

said at the constituency meeting. “I don’t know how many times I have to tell you, the federal government is not going to take responsibility,” said O’Connor. “It’s not the responsibility of the federal government to look after Nortel’s pensions. It’s a provincial responsibility.” Giving preferred status to pensioners would drive up the price of credit for businesses, said O’Connor. The changes would also endanger companies struggling to avoid bankruptcy, he added. Nortel Corp. had advised the government that the pension fund had an estimated 69 per cent of its required value earlier this year. But O’Connor said 81 per cent of the pension was now secured. “You should check your numbers,” said Tony Marsh, a spokesperson for the Nortel Retirees and former employees Protection Canada group. “I think it’s important you know your numbers are totally wrong.” If the federal Tories refused to help Nortel pensioners the group would actively campaign against the party during the next election, Marsh said later during an interview. “We’ll try to get another government,” he said. Marsh said a group of retirees and other seniors were organizing a Facebook group to exert political pressure during the next election. “Pensioners do vote,” said Marsh.

The woman was taken to hospital with minor facial injuries but was released the same night.

Kanata Kourier-Standard - JULY 15, 2010

HOT ENOUGH FOR YOU? The crew from Ullett Construction dig a five-by-nine metre pool in the backyard of a home on Knudson Drive.

Workers swelter in summer heat wave With the temperature soaring to 45 C with the humidex it’s easy to get bummed out by the cruelest part of the summer. But if you think you have it rough, consider those who have to work in the blistering heat with no air conditioning or sometimes even shade. The Kourier-Standard took a tour of Kanata on Thursday, July 8, to talk to some of the people working the hottest jobs in the city. 10:15 a.m. Kayla Spruit and Jeremy Nichols rake at the gravel to prepare the way for a skid steer, driven by co-worker Ken Stranholt on Campeau Drive near Kanata Lakes Avenue. The workers are laying gravel for a sidewalk for the new development on one of the hottest days of the year – the fourth day when temperatures soared above 40 C with the humidex. “You drink five to six bottles of water (a day),” said Nichols. The hardest part of the day is dealing with the heat reflected off the pavement and produced by the construction machinery, such as the skid steers, said Spruit. It’s a little cooler inside the air-conditioned skid steer. “It’s beautiful,” Stranholt says with a smile. 10:45 a.m. The heat isn’t preventing the golfers from hitting the greens at the Kanata Lakes Golf and

Country Club. Dozens of golfers are wandering the greens mid-morning. But the high temperatures have taken their toll, said Brady Pink, assistant supervisor of the golf club.

The pool of water used to water the greens has dipped by three metres since the heat wave started on Monday. “We use 160,000 to 180,000 gallons a day,” said Pink. Meanwhile, the club’s maintenance crew is hard at work

on the course trimming bunkers, mulching and edging greens. “It’s rough,” said Jordan Dempster, one of the maintenance crew. HOT JOBS, SEE 12

“But it’s got to be done.” “We’re out here for six hours,” said co-worker Scott Simpson. “You’ve got to keep fluids in you.” Staff and golfers should resist the temptation to jump into one of the pools of water on the greens, said Pink.

“We’ve green dye in it,” he said. “You might come out looking like a smurf.”

NOON With the heat wave, the City of Ottawa has provided more public swims for residents. A small lineup forms at the Glen Cairn Public Pool, with adults and children looking to escape the sweltering summer heat. It costs $1.90 for children and $2.50 for adults - $1.90 per person if it’s a family – a small price to pay for summer relief. “It’s a leisure swim because of the heat wave,” said a lifeguard. “For the past few days it’s been pretty crazy,” said another lifeguard. Lifeguard Alisha O’Hearn works shifts of eight to 10 hours a day, watching over swimmers in the main pool. “It’s really tiring because it’s so hot,” she said. The lifeguards take advantage of their work environment, she said, taking frequent dips in the pool to cool down. 12:45 p.m. Nearing the hottest part of the day, Stephanie Loftus works in one of the hottest areas in Ottawa – the Wee Chippy, a chip wagon parked on Michael Cowpland Drive in Bridlewood. Business is hopping, despite the heat, with a lineup of customers waiting for their poutines, hot dogs and fries. Temperatures soar inside the chip wagon, with the heat of several deep fat fryers, said Loftus. “It feels like 50 C at least,” said Loftus. blair.edwards@ metroland.com

“The show itself is what I live for,” said Amos The Transparent guitarist Dan Hay. The band will be playing the last day of Bluesfest, Sunday, July 18 at 4 p.m. on the Claridge Homes Stage. JAMIE KRONICK PHOTO

Amos The Transparent closing out Bluesfest Kanata band plays last day with Weezer Kanata-based band Amos The Transparent is performing on the last day of Cisco Ottawa Bluesfest, closing the show with Ottawa bands Ty Hall & The EZ3 and Hollerado, along with headlining act Weezer. “We’re pretty excited,” said Amos guitarist Dan Hay about the July 18 show. “We’ll be giving a different show than what we usually do.” A good deal of percussion has been added, along with different arrangements of songs as well as some new material – but the biggest add-on is a “super secret cover song,” said Hay. “It might be a piano-influenced song, it might be from the ’70s and it might be awesome.” The group, which consists of Jonathan Chandler, Christopher Wilson, James Nicol, Mark Hyne and Kate Cooke, along with Hay, have been practicing and solidifying their set list for the event. “For a show like this you want to put a little bit of effort into it,” joked Hay. Amos is a Bluesfest band veteran, having played the festival since 2007. “Last year we played the first day and this year we’re playing the last day,” said Hay, who joined the group permanently two years ago. The band will be testing out new material they’ve written to gauge audience reaction and help them decide what will make it onto their new album. “We’re testing the water,” said Hay. “That’s

why we want to play some of these songs.” NEW ALBUM IN WORKS The band has been in talks with Gus Van Go, a music producer who has worked with such bands as The Stills and Hollerado. Nothing is finalized yet, said Hay, but the band is excited for the potential to work with Van Go and record in New York City. “We could make possibly the best record ever,” said Hay. The bandmates are working on writing as many songs as possible throughout the summer so recording can start in the fall. “There’s six of us,” said Hay. “We want to work with the dynamics a little more.” Amos began four years ago with a constantly changing lineup of performers. Two years ago, the members were solidified into permanent spots in the group. “This one felt right,” said Hay. “All the personalities meshed. We’ve known each other for years – it turns into a marriage. We don’t really have fights, more like small arguments.” Amos won $50,000 from the LiVE 88.5 Big Money Shot in 2009. “The whole Amos experience has been amazing,” said Hay, whose favourite thing about being part of the band is performing at shows. “I really can’t equate it to anything else, there’s so much energy,” he said. Amos The Transparent will be playing Bluesfest on Sunday, July 18 at 4 p.m. on the Claridge Homes Stage. jessica.cunha@metroland.com

MC - Swimming is a popular pastime when it is hot outside - providing good exercise and keeping you cool. However, on average 4,000 water-related injuries occur every year. Many of them are related to swimming and boating. One in four fatal drownings is a child under the age of 14. Even non-fatal drownings can be dangerous. Brain damage can occur from when a person is denied oxygen for prolonged periods. That is why pool safety should be an utmost priority this season.

Swim in safe areas only. It’s a good idea to swim only in places that are supervised by a lifeguard. Swimming in an open body of water is different from swimming in a pool. You need more energy to handle the currents and other conditions. Don’t panic and don’t fight the current. Swim with the current, gradually trying to make your way back to shore as you do so. * Remove enticing toys. Children may be drawn to floats or toys remaining in a pool. Take them out of the water when the pool is not being used. * Learn to swim. Enroll the family in a certified swimming

613-257-1861

course. Not only will you learn the basics of swimming, you can learn techniques to stay afloat and save someone’s life. * Turn off the pump. Injuries have occurred across the country when children get stuck to filter intake sources. While many of these injuries occurred in larger, commercial pools, accidents can still occur at home. Turn off the filter for safety’s sake when the pool is in use. * Learn CPR. If a person does become injured in a pool, prompt commencement of CPR can help clear the airways and revive an individual. Sign up for a class in your area.

OK, so you do more splashing than swimming, but it’s just as important to know your skill level at the water park as it is at the pool. Take a moment to read warnings and other signs. The pool and the beach are great places to learn new skills, socialize, and check out everyone’s new beach toy. So don’t let paying attention to safety turn you off. Now go have fun!

JESSICA CUNHA KOURIER-STANDARD Kanata media artist Alison Chung-Yan’s short video, Transformation, was selected for screening in the Canada Pavilion at World Expo 2010, running until Oct. 31, in Shanghai, China. Chung-Yan has lived in Kanata for five years and has enjoyed the Beaver Pond nature and bike trails on occasion, one of the areas emphasized in her video. “Part of the reason why I thought to bring this up now is I’m aware of a lot of the controversy going on with the Beaver Pond area

right now,” she said. “That’s one of the areas highlighted in the video. I think this video goes a long way to capture what I love about the place. I’m hoping between the National Capital Commission, the residents and the developers, that we find a way to keep what’s actually very unique and precious to Kanata.” The video is kaleidoscopic, portraying the City of Ottawa’s growth, transformation and renewal from its natural and rural heritage through to its industrial and high-tech present. “The changing city is juxtaposed against the passage from day to night with footage

taken from west-Ottawa and environs including Britannia Bay and Kanata’s Beaver Pond area,” said Chung-Yan. “Transformation depicts a city that embraces the beauty of its natural environment alongside its rural and urban landscapes. The work resonates with Canada’s theme at Expo 2010: The Living City: inclusive, sustainable, creative.” Chung-Yan was one of 165 artists chosen to represent Canada at the World Expo out of thousands of applicants. “It was quite an honour,” she said about being chosen. “It was a real opportunity to showcase what I really like about Ottawa.”

Cirque du Soleil is the producer of the Canada Pavilion’s cultural program which features a diversity of artists, works and performances from a variety of disciplines including dance, music, literature, visual arts and media arts. More than 45 short pieces by both established and emerging filmmakers will be showcased on screens in the pavilion’s waiting area. To view the video, visit www.alisonchungyan.com. “I hope people do take the time to actually look at it,” she said. “We want to make sure what’s precious isn’t lost.” jessica.cunha@metroland.com

LACELLE’S APIARY Sweet surprises are in store for visitors to The Carp Farmers’ Market on Saturday, July 17, which promises to be a honey of a day. Paul Lacelle of Lacelle’s Apiary and president of the Lanark County Beekeepers Association, will be on hand with a presentation on the honey bee. “Honeybees play an essential role in pollinating many of our Canadian food crops,” said Lacelle. “They’re not just there to produce honey. Most everything that flowers and fruits owes its crops and flowers to the work of the honeybee.” Visitors will be able to see how a typical hive is set up; where bees live and store their honey. Tools of the beekeeper will be on display and those interested can try on a beekeepers veil and spin an extractor to see how the honey is removed. Lacelle’s Apiary has been producing honey, beeswax candles and skin cream for over 15 years. The hives are located on an 80 acre hobby farm where the bees work hard through the warm months collecting nectar from pastures filled with wild flowers. As summer turns to fall and clover and basswood blossoms give way to the asters, daisies and goldenrod of fall the bees are still hard at work gathering nectar against the winter months ahead. “Autumn honey is a darker honey,” said Lacelle. “It’s more of an amber colour and has a deeper, richer flavour. “Why not drop by and try some?” said Lacelle. “You won’t ‘bee’ disappointed.”

Student only Canadian attending San Diego camp

Kanata Kourier-Standard - JULY 15, 2010

“I’m always looking forward to meeting new people and I think it’s going to be really interesting,” he said. Lerbous is heading into Grade 12 in the fall, but is unsure about whether he will major in science or not when it comes to post secondary education. “This is what I like about this; I’m going to be able to see what my opportunities are with science and if I like any of that,” he said about the American camp. “It’s not like math – there’s so many variables to (science). It answers pretty much any question that a person could have, or it tries to at least.” Biology is his favourite branch of science and he will have the opportunity to study in laboratory settings and in the field with eminent scientists. “Biology studies where we came from and studies other animals; it studies the mind,” he Lerbous. “It’s quite amazing.” He said he was surprised at getting picked for the camp, which is for “motivated high school students who have demonstrated an interest in the sciences but who need encouragement and incentives as well as upto-date instruction,” according to the camps website. “For one second I thought I wasn’t going to go. I thought I wasn’t going to be picked,” he said. “I was super shocked that my teacher picked me, it was a really cool thing she did. She gave me a chance.” jessica.cunha@metroland.com

Jose Pozo Lerbous is the only Canadian student attending this year’s Science and Innovation Summer Camp at the University of California in San Diego. “My teacher, she selected me,” said Lerbous, who attends St. Pius X Catholic High School. “It’s because I like science so much and one of the students that speak Spanish in my school.” Lerbous, 17, moved to Jose Pozo Kanata from the Dominican Republic in 2006. Lerbous When he came here, he didn’t speak any English, said his guardian Larry Sullivan. “It’s a big change in environment for him and I think he’s managed very well,” said Sullivan, who walked Lerbous around their subdivision in Kanata, naming each thing they saw. “It was different,” said Lerbous about the relocation. “Everything is different; the people are different, personalities are different, communities are different, schools are different.” The 10-day program, which runs from July 26 to August 6, is intensive and held only in Spanish, but Lerbous said he is looking forward to the camp.

Capital United scores high in South Africa KATIE MULLIGAN KOURIER-STANDARD After taking Canada by storm, Ottawa’s Capital United men’s soccer team went on to face some of the best soccer players in the world. The team, with members from West Carleton to the east end of Ottawa, won the national tournament in June, allowing them to advance to the Global Beer Champions 6v6 international amateur soccer tournament, held in the same location as the World Cup. Team member Kyle Washington, who grew up in Carp, said they returned from Johannesburg, South Africa not long after the early July tournament. “We were one of the best teams there,” he said. “We were unlucky to lose to Vietnam in the semifinals, but we won more games, scored more goals than everyone other than Brazil.” Washington said the team was proud of their accomplishment overseas. The Canadian team kicked off the tourna-

ment in Group A, along with Vietnam, China and South Africa. On Canada Day, the team was ranked second after the round robin phase, right behind Brazil, who was ahead by five goals. Canada beat Vietnam in the first game 10. They continued the winning streak in the second game, beating South Africa 3-0 and China 3-0. The Capital United headed to the semifinals, where they lost 1-0 against Vietnam. In the finals, Vietnam lost to Brazil 3-0. “Vietnam was all over the field,” said Washington of the semifinal game. “We had a ton of chances, but fate wasn’t on our side that game.” The team felt the loss to Vietnam was “dishonest” due to the amount of play-acting they were doing. “But at the end of the tournament, we held our heads high because we won the second most games among the 11 countries in the tournament (other than Brazil, tying with Vietnam),” said Washington. katie.mulligan@metroland.com

Warriors win soccer gold WEST OTTAWA WARRIORS

401770

The West Ottawa girls U11 premier soccer team blasted their way to the gold medal at the Cumberland Cobras Snakebite Tournament in Orleans during from June 26 to 27. Facing three other Cumberland teams in the tier 1 division, the West Ottawa Warriors finished with four wins out of five games and the most goals scored at 13. The Warriors set the tone with the first game by scoring their first goal of the tournament within 10 seconds of play. Throughout the weekend they were able to shut down their opponents by moving the ball quickly into space, with excellent passing and hustling for every ball resulting in a tie for the lowest goals against total. Goalies Dana Selwyn and Caileigh Riddell got three shutouts out of the five games.

In the championship game, the Warriors faced the Cumberland premier team which had beaten them previously in pool play. Danielle Theoret from the Warriors team opened the scoring during an intense first half. In the second half, both teams were battling to get the critical next goal. The Warriors prevailed with Molly Martel getting the insurance goal. To seal the victory Sasha Thomson scored the third and final goal of the game with the Warriors winning 3-0. Coach Alexandre St-Jean is very proud to coach such an exceptional group of girls. “Every one of them played a part in our success in this tournament,” said St-Jean. The West Ottawa Warriors are coached by Alexandre St-Jean and John MacAngus. Marc Pawlowsky is the team manager.

Marianne Wilkinson Tonight, Thursday, July 15, there is a public meeting at the Mlacak Centre on the KNL lands north of the Beaver Pond. It is unfortunate that weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve had little advanced notice, but staff felt they had to move quickly due to actions planned by KNL Developments. For example, I have been informed that they will be fencing their lands this week (as required by the City prior to any development commencing). The fencing is to protect the cityâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s environmental lands, as well as protecting the public from construction activities. Any comments on the proposed Terms of Reference for a new landfill at the Carp site must be submitted by July 19.

The Holding Zone on lands served by the Hazeldean Pumping Station is intended to reduce the risk of sanitary sewer back-ups. For people living in Kanata and Stittsville it is a no-brainer. After the problems with flooding in our communities, the City should be doing what it can to protect residents. For developers it is a different story. When the Cityâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Planning and Environment Committee discussed the Holding Zoning, spokespeople for Urbandale, Richcraft, and Mattamy spoke in opposition to the recommendation. 613-580-2752
