Hubley elected in Kanata South Candidate vows to rein in city spending JESSICA CUNHA KOURIER-STANDARD

Allan Hubley embraces his son, Josh, after winning the election for councillor for Kanata South, a ward where he took nearly half the vote. He celebrated with his supporters, family and friends at the Kanata Sports Club on election night.

Allan Hubley is the new face of Kanata South, winning the councillor seat with 6,783 votes. Aaron Helleman, who was endorsed by now-retired incumbent Peggy Feltmate, conceded to Hubley just after 8:30 p.m. on Monday, Oct. 25. Hubley was voted in as the new councillor for Ward 23 with 48.8 per cent of the votes. “I now get to live my dream,” said the 52-year-old. “It’s time to celebrate.” Hubley’s supporters watched the election results unfold at the Kanata Sports Club. He joined his family, friends and close supporters after polls showed he won the seat for Kanata South. “It’s exciting,” said Hubley’s wife, Wendy. “I’m now relieved it’s all over.” Less people turned out to vote in

Kanata South with 13,901 heading to the polls compared to 16,818 in 2006. Hubley’s win is a surprise in a ward that traditionally votes centreleft on the political spectrum. He said he credits his victory to the people of Kanata South and the hard work of his campaign team. Hubley ran on a platform that promised to work on getting recreation facilities to Bridlewood, reducing traffic congestion, fixing the issues behind flooding in Glen Cairn and Katimavik-Hazeldean and keeping taxes at or below the rate of inflation. “Priority number one is to get spending under control,” said Hubley. “It’s a city-wide issue. If we can get spending under control everything else will fall into place.” He said he will work well with the next city council. HUBLEY, SEE 8

The media landscape in Ottawa has made a dramatic and positive change with the debut of four new community newspapers. Bucking the trend of downsizing at some area newspapers, Metroland Media – Ottawa Region, publisher of the Kanata Kourier-Standard, is expanding. Four new community newspapers launched on Thursday, Oct. 28; all will bear the name Ottawa This Week but each one will have content targeted to the diverse neighbourhoods it serves. “We are very excited to be launching four new papers in some very vibrant areas of the city,” said Deb Bodine, editor-in-chief of Metroland Media – Ottawa Region. “While the mainstream media is filled with tales of layoffs and downsizing in the newspaper industry, it’s a great feeling to be the one that’s beating the odds and hiring talented staff for both print and online products.” Over 35 full-time staff members have been hired and over 2,000 carriers will be delivering 100,000 copies of the tabloidsized weekly papers within their community each Thursday. With the addition of Ottawa This Week, Metroland Media – Ottawa Region now publishes 15 community papers that reach 320,000 households, including some of Canada’s oldest newspapers, the Perth Courier and The Renfrew Mercury. “We are very excited to be expanding across the city of Ottawa,” said Chris McWebb, VP and publisher of Metroland Media – Ottawa Region. “Ottawa is a diverse collection of com-

munities, which is a perfect match for our commitment to providing readers with the most important news and information affecting their neighbourhood.” Ottawa This Week will provide hyperlocal content to the communities it serves with hard-hitting news, profiles of residents, thought-provoking editorials, entertaining opinion columns and coverage of sports, upcoming events and arts and culture. Its accompanying website, YourOttawaRegion.com, will offer residents daily news updates and multimedia content. “There is a definite opportunity to provide readers with more focused local content, while offering advertisers targeting and flexibility that was not previously available – a win/win combination for everyone,” said McWebb. “We are also very proud to be the only newspapers in the region to be using 100 per cent recycled newsprint,” said Bodine. “Despite the fact it is more expensive than the whiter paper used by others, we truly believe it is the right way to go.” PUBLICATIONS Ottawa This Week West will serve Britannia, Carlingwood, Westboro, Island Park and area; Central will serve the Glebe, Alta Vista, Elmvale Acres, Mooney’s Bay and area; East will serve New Edinburgh, Rockcliffe, Vanier, Pineview and area and South will serve Riverside South, Hunt Club, Blossom Park and area. In addition, Nepean This Week, another one of the Metroland family of newspapers will also be changing its name to Ottawa This Week - Nepean edition

Feds buy Nortel campus

Sale could sweeten deal for commercial property owners in Kanata

Reduce the clutter! Sell it in the Classiﬁeds. 401410

JENNIFER MCINTOSH KOURIER-STANDARD Nortel Networks sold its sprawling Carling Avenue campus to the federal government for the tidy sum of $208 million. The campus sits on 370 acres of land and is comprised of 11 buildings — totaling over 185,807 square metres. Nortel, who was once the continent’s largest maker of telecommunications equipment announced the deal on Oct. 19. In a press release sent out on the same day, a spokesperson for the company said they expect the sale to close at the end of the year. The sale agreement provides for Nortel to continue to occupy parts of the campus for varying periods of time to allow for them to work on their global restructuring. The company filed for bankruptcy protection in January 2009 and has been auctioning off parts of its business in an effort to pay back debt holders. After Nortel vacates the building, all leases will be assumed by Public Works and Government Services Canada. The lease with Ciena will be shortened from 10 years to five years and will result in a $33.5 million repayment — to come from the sale proceeds. Minto’s executive vice-president Greg Rogers said the sale was a good deal for the feds. “We had participated in the bidding process, with a mind to obtaining the property and leasing it back to the federal government,” he said. Minto’s involvement in the bidding battle went three rounds. Rogers speculated that the feds wanted to buy the property rather than lease because of the unique security needs of the Department of National Defense — which is

likely to be the newest tenant. “I wish we had won but the federal government is getting buildings and land at a phenomenal price,” he said. Other commercial property owners could benefit from the sale as the other technology companies — Ciena, Avaya, Ericsson and Genband will now be looking for new homes. Rosemary Leu, the general manager of the Kanata Chamber of Commerce, said that she expects the Kanata Research Park is hoping to house some of the displaced businesses. “I think they (Kanata Research Park owners) will see it as positive,” she said. Leu couldn’t confirm the vacancy rate for commercial businesses in Kanata, but said 15 per cent sounded “pretty accurate.” jennifer.mcintosh@metroland.com

New mayor, fresh start

Congratulations Mr. Mayor. Voters have given you a four-year mandate to lead city council in governing the City of Ottawa. The position is nothing new for you; you were mayor of Ottawa before amalgamation. But a lot has changed since then. Amalgamation brought together a mish-mash of rural, suburban and urban communities; a variety of councils have struggled over the past decade to address the needs of this family of former municipalities. It’s a big city now, facing some large problems: suburban growth, pollution, higher-thaninﬂation annual tax increases to name just a few. Council has many issues on its agenda, including a multibillion dollar light rail project, cleaning up the Ottawa River and the city’s struggles to maintain its planning vision

in the face of objections from developers, who are often supported by the unelected Ontario Municipal Board. Voters were a bit frustrated with council’s performance over the past four years, which, we’re sure you’re aware helped you at the polls. Everyone who voted for you shared a common trait – hope. Hope that a Jim Watson-led council will turn the problems facing Ottawa into opportunities and solutions. Opportunities to build a world-class transit system, promote business and tourism and build a city where we can live, work and play. The people who voted you into ofﬁce are counting on strong leadership from the mayor’s ofﬁce. That doesn’t mean issuing edicts from the mount – as mayor, it will be your role to

set the legislative agenda and forge consensus on council. Ottawans don’t have an appetite for tax increases – residential taxes have gone up exponentially over the last four years despite the pledge of “zero means zero” from your predecessor. We’re happy to hear your vision for growth does not include urban sprawl and we’re hoping council will be able to work with developers and communities to form a consensus on inﬁll development. We also hope you will move quickly to introduce your promised borough model of municipal government, giving more decision-making power over local issues to communities. You have a lot on your plate Mr. Mayor, but take a few days to enjoy your election win.You have the support of the greatest city in Canada behind you.

Ottawa car stars in new movie – or maybe not

pproaching the parking lot around midnight, I saw lights blazing and recognized it as a movie set. It wasn’t a movie set when I left my car there a few hours earlier and my ﬁrst thought was not, “Oh, good, a movie!” It was, “Oh no, how am I going to get my car out of there?” Perhaps some of the sense of wonder has gone out of my life. After I determined cameras were not rolling, I trudged past a lot of people who didn’t seem to be doing anything over to where my car was. Except that my car wasn’t there. Around the spot where I thought I had left it was a grey car with a Pennsylvania licence plate. I stood there looking puzzled long enough for a movie person to offer assistance. “I’m looking for my car,” I said. “What does it look like?” he asked. I was starting to say that it was grey when I noticed that the grey car with the Pennsylvania licence plate had a familiar-looking dent behind the back door. “Um …,” I said. “It’s a sticker,” the movie guy said, reaching over and peeling the Pennsylvania plate off, revealing my Ontario plate. Too stunned to ask him anything else

CHARLES GORDON Funny Town – such as, what’s my car’s motivation? – I got in, backed out, helpfully directed by several movie people, and drove off. As I bounced along Sussex Drive, I pondered what profound conclusions could be drawn from this experience. The best I could come up with is that you think you know Ottawa but you don’t. I’ve lived here for 36 years and still can’t predict what will happen. I often arrive way too early for events because I figure that everyone in town will be there and I’ll have to drive around for hours to find a place to park. When I get there, I park right in front of the door and find 14 people inside, not counting me. Or it can work the other way. My first traumatic memory of the city is

of trying to drive my family across the Champlain Bridge to see the autumn leaves in the Gatineau. How could I have known that everybody in Ottawa drives across the bridge into Quebec to look at leaves? It’s not as if there are no leaves in Ontario. For a while, I was working on a theory that people in Ottawa will go to anything if it’s free. And there’s something in that. But there are some very expensive events, galas and whatnot that are sold out every year. So then I developed the theory, equally ﬂawed, that people in Ottawa will go to anything if it costs them $500. In terms of outdoor behaviour, my working theory is that Ottawa people will go to anything if they can take a lawn chair to it. None of this explains why a parking lot on Clarence Street would turn itself into Pennsylvania. Unless, the movie is really about a Pennsylvania car, played by mine, that, through a series of wacky coincidences, winds up in a lot in Ottawa.

esque.” So you can see why Ottawa would be the logical place for it, although there are no reported plans for filming in the Senate. One thing I’ve learned in 36 years in Ottawa is that Psycho-esque behaviour is all around us. True, it is mostly confined to the letters-to-the-editor pages, but you can sense the undertone of violence as people rage on about whether pedestrians should walk on the left or the right side of the bicycle paths. As a famous film character might have said: “I have a feeling we’re not in Pennsylvania any more.”

Soccer merger impact on fees

I would like to open by thanking the Kanata community for the generosity it showed to the Kanata Food Cupboard during the recent Thanksgiving season. With the Annual United Way Fundraising drive underway, I am writing on behalf of the Kanata Food Cupboard to encourage residents to contribute towards this worthwhile cause. The monies raised by this drive benefit charities across the region, and help to ensure that the most vulnerable in our society receive some of the aid and assistance they need. A simple one-time donation is always appreciated, and longer-term donations can often be accomplished through payroll deductions, such as those available for Federal government employees. Remember, all of the donations are taxdeductible, and a small bi-weekly payroll deduction can amount to a good sized refund when tax time rolls around. I would also like to point out that you may direct your United Way donation to one or more specific charitable agencies. All you need to know is the name of the charity and its charitable registration number, which you can find on the website of the Canada Revenue Agency at www.cra-arc.gc.ca; the registration number of the Kanata Food Cupboard for instance is 118977529RR0001. Please use this opportunity to help your community. Your community appreciates it. Tom Smellie Chairman, Board of Directors Kanata Food Cupboard

There are many costs not under our control that need to be covered, only one of which is field rentals. The merger itself will not have a direct impact on registration fees but, as usual, any increase in fixed costs including not only field rentals but other costs such as field lining, coach training and equipment purchases will have an impact on the fees.

To the editor. Re: Kanata Soccer votes to merge with Goulbourn, Oct. 21, Kourier-Standard. The article gave a good overview of what lies ahead in the merger of the two clubs. I would like to clarify however that there are many factors that have an impact on the registration fees charged by any notfor-profit community sports organization, including the new West Ottawa Soccer Club.

Municipal Election 2010

Kanata North

Wilkinson wins nailbiter BLAIR EDWARDS KOURIER-STANDARD It was déjà vu all over again for Marianne Wilkinson on election night. Same ward, same challenger, same end result. But this one was a nail biter. Voters once again gave Wilkinson the nod as councillor of Kanata North, with the incumbent taking 4,742 votes, roughly half of the votes cast. Jeff Seeton finished a close second with 4,274 votes, or 45 per cent of the vote. Lili Weemen finished third with 1.79 per cent of the votes, followed by Hal Watson with 1.5 per cent and Herntz Golmann with 1.26 per cent of the 9,450 total votes cast. NAILBITER Wilkinson stared at the screen as the results slowly trickled in at her campaign headquarters at Jack Astor’s Bar and Grill in the Kanata Centrum Oct. 25. Some of the results were slow to come in because of lineups at the All Saints Catholic High School polling station. Early numbers showed Wilkinson neck and neck with Seeton. “By one vote?” said one supporter as she stared at the results. “Are you kidding me?” Wilkinson led by just one per cent with eight out of 15 polling stations reporting. “What about Watson?” asked a Wilkinson supporter as the time approached 9 p.m. “Oh Watson was elected half an hour ago,” another woman replied. Finally a cheer erupted in the room, as the City of Ottawa’s election website reported Wilkinson ahead by five per cent with 93 per cent of the results in. The newly elected councillor turned and embraced Bob Teron. “The father and mother of Kanata,” she said. With 21-years of experience as a municipal politician under her belt, Wilkinson said this will be her last term in office. “This is the last time I’m going to go through this again,” she said. “I had a feeling it would be a tight one.” Wilkinson, a long-time resident of Kanata, has been in this position before. She served as Kanata’s first mayor before its incorporation into the City of Ottawa. Before that, she was a member of March township council. She has also served as mayor and regional councillor in the regional municipality of Ottawa-Carleton for nine years. Wilkinson said she has a few items left on her to-do list for Kanata North, including finishing the west district library and opening the Kanata north recreation complex. The incumbent ran on a platform that promised improved transit service

within Kanata, a review of city programs to find savings and help control taxes and to bring the lands north of the Beaver Pond into public ownership. Wilkinson also promised to lead the fight to stop development on 29 hectares of land near the Beaver Pond and promote plans to turn the area into an eco-tourism site, using the Kanata north recreation complex as an epicentre. The re-elected councillor also promised to fight the Carp Road landfill proposal and to ensure the Bayshore to Moodie section of the Transitway is completed. Wilkinson said she also wanted to establish a development advisory committee to develop a “smart growth” plan for Kanata that fits in with the city’s development plan. NEGATIVE CAMPAIGN Wilkinson said her work championing the purchase of the South March Highlands from a developer took her away from the campaign trail. The incumbent said she was disappointed with her opponents’ negative campaigning. “I didn’t like it when they started questioning my health,” she said. “They tried to blame me for (the Bea-

ver Pond sale) instead of saying you saved (some of) the lands. “The Beaver Pond issue was huge.” She said she looked forward to working with Allan Hubley, the newly elected councillor of Kanata South. “The two councillors will have to work together,” she said. Wilkinson said she also looked forward to working with Mayor Jim Watson. “I have worked with him many times before,” she said. “And I worked well with him.” Seeton said he was pleased with how well he did in the polls. “I put everything into this race,” said Seeton. “I would have preferred a different result. “It shows there’s a (desire) for a change.” Seeton congratulated Wilkinson and promised to share his ideas with her concerning the purchase of the South March Highlands slated for development. He said the reports of negative campaigning in the media were greatly exaggerated. “I have never harboured any ill will, though some media have suggested otherwise.” blair.edwards@metroland.com

HUBLEY, FROM 1

“I’ve talked to Jim Watson before,” he said. “Our number one priority is to build a better city. “I will work with anybody, any other councillor to make this a better city.” TWO-TERM LIMIT Hubley ran against Feltmate in 2006 and finished with 5,631 vote, the second most votes of anyone challenging an incumbent. An active member of the community, Hubley moved to Kanata in 1978. He held the position of president of the Glen Cairn Community Association for the past 10 years, retiring this year after he announced his candidacy. Also a member of the Kanata South Flood Committee, Hubley said the flooding issue is his second priority. Hubley said he will self-impose a two-term limit on himself, and will support a provision that limits all councillors to the same time frame. “Now it’s up to us,” he said, addressing his supporters. “Tonight we’re going to celebrate.” Helleman finished with 36.4 per cent of the votes. “He stayed so positive and kept calm about everything; took the high road and just went on. I am really proud of him,” said Helleman’s mother, Henni. “(We’re) disappointed; he would have been great. His love for people and community is so big. We’re so grateful for the whole experience.” Helleman said he wasn’t sure if he would try running for council again. “I need time to reflect on this whole process,” said Helleman, who didn’t like the way the campaign was run. “I wish we would have campaigns about issues instead of partisan (politics). I prefer to talk about real issues with people.” Marc Favreau came in third with 11.8 per cent of the vote. Rodney Tellez finished with 1.4 per cent, Perry Simpson with 0.9 per cent and Michel Tardif with 0.8 per cent. With files from Katie Ciavaglia jessica.cunha@metroland.com

Jim Watson celebrates victory at the Ukrainian Banquet Hall on Byron Avenue on Oct. 25.

BLAIR EDWARDS KOURIER-STANDARD The winds of change swept city hall on election night. Ottawa elected a new mayor on Monday, Oct. 25, as Jim Watson cruised to a lopsided victory collecting 131,258 votes, or nearly half of the vote, easily trouncing the incumbent, Larry O’Brien by 66,405 votes. “Tonight we are celebrating but the hard work starts tomorrow,” said Watson, who celebrated his win with hundreds of well wishers at the Ukrainian Banquet Hall on Byron Avenue. “Each and every one of you embodies the spirit of our capital. I’m truly honoured to accept this privilege to serve as your next mayor.” Watson isn’t the only new kid on the block on council, with voters electing nine new councillors and unseating an unprecedented six incumbents. O’Brien took only 64,853 votes, a result that marked the end of his four years sitting at the helm of city council. Clive Doucet finished third with 40,147 votes or 14.9 per cent of the vote, signalling the end of his 13-year career at city hall where he served as councillor of Capital Ward. Former Nepean mayor Andrew Haydon fell into the fourth spot taking 18,904 votes, nearly seven per cent of the vote, followed by Mike Maguire who attracted nearly 2.5 per cent of the vote. The remaining 15 mayoral candidates collected only three per cent of the vote, led by Robert Gauthier with 1,413 votes.

The polls attracted a low turnout with only 269,547 registered voters casting a ballot in the 2010 mayoral election, down from 300,039 votes cast in the 2006 election. PREDICTABLE MAYORAL OUTCOME The results of the mayoral race came out as expected with Watson winning a landslide victory over O’Brien. Watson led in the polls since he declared himself a candidate, holding a double-digit lead over his opponents a week before the election. This is Watson’s second kick at the can serving as mayor of Ottawa – he was elected mayor of pre-amalgamation Ottawa in 1997. In 2003 Watson was elected MPP for Ottawa West-Nepean and he served in Premier Dalton McGuinty’s cabinet as minister of consumer and business services, health promotion and later municipal affairs and housing. O’Brien trailed behind Watson for the entire election. O’Brien congratulated Watson during his concession speech at Broadway’s Bar and Grill in Nepean on election night. “I think people like Jim Watson,” he said. “Certainly (the win) was not about getting things done.” O’Brien said his four-year term as mayor had its ups and downs. Earlier this month, the incumbent apologized to voters for his first two years as mayor, calling them “a disaster”. Watson will be joined by a host of neophytes to city hall including Tim Tierney, who defeated Michel Bellemare by

181 votes in Beacon Hill-Cyrville and Mark Taylor, a former aide to Watson, in Bay Ward. The other new councillors are: • Scott Moffatt, who defeated Glenn Brooks in Rideau-Goulbourn. • Katherine Hobbs who beat Christine Leadman in Kitchissippi Ward. •Stephen Blais beat Rob Jelllet to take Cumberland Ward. • Matthieu Fleury defeated Georges Bedard in Rideau-Vanier by 88 votes. “He’s been blessed with a wonderful crew,” said O’Brien of Watson. “He has a council I would have been happy to lead.” Watson will need the support of council to bring about his plan to shrink the number of councillors and to limit tax increases to 2.5 per cent per year as well as introduce a borough system allowing communities to make local decisions. Doucet told supporters at his Wellington Street campaign headquarters that he had no regrets. “We didn’t lose,” he said. “We just didn’t win – there’s a big difference.” Doucet said he didn’t lose because he campaigned for “the right reasons:” a vision of a city linked from east to west by light rail and a prosperous city filled with strong neighbourhoods. Doucet said it is now time for him to step back from the public stage and reflect on the future of the world’s cities, and perhaps visit some of them. Doucet choked on his words as he closed his speech by saying: “But my home, my heart and my greatest hopes will always be for my city, the City of Ottawa.” With files from Laura Mueller and Lois Siegel

Qadri by a landslide JOHN CURRY KOURIER-STANDARD Incumbent city of Ottawa Stittsville ward councillor Shad Qadri is off again to city hall with an overwhelming mandate from ward voters in last Monday’s election. Facing only token opposition in the person of Richard Eveleigh, a virtual unknown in the ward, councillor Qadri received 7,185 votes or 91.46 percent of the 7,856 votes cast. Mr. Eveleigh received 671 votes or 8.54 percent of the votes cast. He promises to be a strong voice for the community at city hall and feels that his campaign, which saw him canvass many homes in the community, especially in the new areas, has given him a good feel for the major concerns of residents. He found that taxes were the number one issue for residents, especially in the newer areas with younger families. Other issues were the Carp Road landfill expansion, transit in the community, infrastructure needs and concerns about safety, security, vandalism and speeding. “I want to make sure that we stay as close to the inflationary rate as possible,” councillor Qadri says with regard to upcoming taxes. He believes that reviewing city services on a regular basis will help keep taxes down. While he favours the light rail transit plan with the downtown tunnel, councillor Qadri also sees the need to improve the bus system serving Stittsville as the community grows. He thinks one answer may be in using smaller buses to serve as feeder buses within the community, transporting riders to routes served by larger commuter buses. Councillor Qadri wants to see

the city work with the province on improving diversion and recycling in the commercial, industrial and institutional section for which the province is now responsible. This might even mean introducing some sort of green bin program in the business community. He also wants to see more waste to energy initiatives, whether it be Plasco or other technologies. He is also aware of the continuing need for infrastructure improvements in the community, ensuring that the community has the infrastructure it needs as it grows. Whereas previously this meant an improved Hazeldean Road, which is now under construction, infrastructure needs coming up include Carp Road and Huntmar Drive improvements and getting the north/south arterial through the Fernbank lands in place. A new ice surface is coming for the Goulbourn Recreation Complex and a major recreational facility, perhaps not quite to the scale of the Goulbourn Recreation Complex, is slated for the Fernbank lands when they develop. Councillor Qadri thanks his family, his office team and his campaign team for their work and support either during the past term of office or during the campaign. In the 2006 municipal election, Mr. Qadri, running for the first time for council, received 6,287 votes or 72.02 percent of the votes cast. There were 8,729 votes cast in that election, more than the number of votes cast in last Monday’s election despite the fact that the ward has grown in population in the four intervening years. john.curry@metroland.com

Former West Carleton mayor Roly Armitage, left, congratulates Eli El-Chantiry on his re-election to a third term as councillor. El-Chantiry and his supporters gathered to hear the election results Monday night in Constance Bay.

Voters re-elect El-Chantiry NEVIL HUNT KOURIER-STANDARD While upsets were the order of the day in many wards, voters in West Carleton-March checked the box marked status quo. Eli El-Chantiry was re-elected as councillor in the ward by more than 77 per cent of voters. With all ballot boxes counted, challengers James Parsons and Alexander Aronec took 14.9 and 7.7 per cent of the votes respectively. El-Chantiry and his supporters gathered at the Legion in Constance Bay shortly before the 8 p.m. end of voting. The councillor – now headed to his third term – seemed nervous despite all signs pointing to re-election. He wandered about, chatting here and there while taking frequent glances at the time as 8 p.m. neared. When early results indicated he had 77 per cent of the vote, El-Chantiry managed a quick, “That’s good, that’s good,” and then scurried outside to hear an update on his cell phone. The supporters inside weren’t able to keep track of the results thanks to two TV networks that stuck with network programming. Skating and dancing shows provided a strange backdrop to the political drama. By 8:45 p.m. radio reports made it clear the advantage would hold up, and El-Chantiry spoke to the

80-plus people who worked their way into the Legion banquet room. He accepted their applause as he stepped onto the small stage. “I’m as nervous as I was the first time,” said ElChantiry, alluding to the 2003 election when he was elected by just 29 votes. The councillor said he never wanted to be accused of taking the race for granted, and that he still went door-to-door to hear from voters in the ward. “You have to prove yourself in the community,” he said, adding one of his goals for the coming term is improving communications across the ward. El-Chantiry saved his greatest thanks for Roly Armitage, the former mayor of the what was once the municipality of West Carleton. The councillor called Armitage his hero in politics. El-Chantiry then stepped down from the stage and shared hugs and handshakes with everyone in the room. Armitage later repaid the compliment, calling ElChantiry “dedicated and loyal.” “I saw that in him,” Armitage said. “You have to have that in-depth integrity.” Armitage also speculated El-Chantiry may one day make a good MP. “I think we’ll see him in federal politics,” he said. “If he doesn’t do it, I’ll have to talk him into it.” nevil.hunt@metroland.com

Challenger Todd Johnson received 29 per cent of the ballots cast. “I’m really gratiﬁed at the level of support,” Scott said late this evening. “I tried to

work hard for the zone, and make sensible and defensible decisions on things.” She now heads into her sixth term on the board, during which she served two years as chair. The West Carleton resident said the coming four-year term will likely see changes to the way the board works, with an emphasis on tracking the effects of change. “We need to monitor the impact of board decisions so we know they are having a positive impact on students,” Scott said. She added that changes to provincial legislation have made trustees more accountable when it comes to student success. nevil.hunt@metroland.com

Cathy Curry will keep her position as trustee for Zone 2 in the public school board. Curry won against Christine Boothby, taking in 57 per cent of the votes against Boothby’s 43 per cent. Also chair of the Ottawa Carleton District School Board, Curry said her main issues of focus will be overcrowding in public schools. “Our hope is what this committee will do is come up with a short-term solution to alleviate the pressing concerns,” she said. “But also a longtime solution for all of the elementary schools in Kanata north and south.” She also promised to focus on building a new school in Kanata North, reducing the number of portables, renovating older schools and introducing more after-school programs. Ottawa Catholic School Board incumbent Ted Hurley won by a landslide, with 83 per cent of the votes. Hudson Egbert only received 17 per cent. Zone 2 trustee Hurley promised to focus on forging stronger ties between families, schools and parishes as partners in Catholic children’s education. “Catholic morals and character development — that’s what Catholic schools is all about,” said Hurley. “Otherwise it’s just public education.” He said he would also continue to take advantage of advances in technology, such as smart boards, to keep classroom learning up-to-date. Other issues he said he intends to address are lack of adequate funding to support special education, more opportunities for faith development in schools and dealing with changing transportation needs and reducing busing costs. Linda Savard took the position of trustee for Zone 12 for the French public school board (Conseil des ecoles publiques de l’Est de l’Ontario) with 72 per cent of the vote. Savard upset incumbent Bernard Bareilhe, who received 15.3 per cent votes. Savard said she would focus on getting a French-language high school built in west Kanata. “The most pressing issue in our school board is the need for a high school,” she said. “Students are forced to abandon permanent instruction in French and leave their friends in order to attend immersion programs offered elsewhere.” Savard said she promised to work on better public transportation for students, a reduction in portables and student retention. Abdourahman Kahin ﬁnished with 13 per cent of the votes. jessica.cunha@metroland.com

The loss of the South March Highlands will mean more than losing a natural habitat for endangered species; more than the loss of trails to walk, run and bike on. For one Kanata family it will be a very personal loss if the developers go ahead and build the 3,200-home subdivision. The Gibbons’ son, Christopher, has autism. The family takes walks in the woods four to six times a week to help Christopher with his anxiety levels. “It has the pond, and streams, the water; it’s very calming for him,” wrote Diana, his mother in an email. “It is for people who have autism.” Autism can affect an individual’s nervous system, making them

much more sensitive to day-today stimuli. “Chris’ nervous system is much more sensitive to stimuli than a neurotypical individual,” said Diana. “The woods are a place he can go away from artificial lighting, technological auditory stimuli, and the confusing sounds of crowds. He is much calmer there, he unwinds, and it allows him to get the cardiovascular exercise that he requires. “This is something not only an individual who has autism benefits from, but all individuals; something in our fast-paced world that people do not do enough of.” ‘A GREAT LOSS’ Individuals with autism tend to get used to a routine that helps them function in their daily lives. Repetitive routines are calming, and a break from routine pattern can cause distress. “From a personal perspective, it would be a great loss for Christopher,” said Diana. “Christopher can not speak on his own behalf. The loss of these lands will be devastating for Chris; this has been part of Chris’ routine and life since he has been a small child. Individuals with autism are dependent on continuity in their lives. Christopher needs places like the Kanata North lands to keep some consistency in his life, a place where he can walk forth in the world and feel safe.” Christopher lost his grandmother to leukemia earlier in the year, said Diana, and the loss affected his anxiety levels greatly. “He was very close to her and as a result his anxiety levels are much higher than before,” she said.

A PIECE OF HISTORY A motion to delay the development of the 29 hectares of land will be brought before city council on Nov. 17. Diana said she hopes the land can be saved, for her family and for others who use the lands. â&#x20AC;&#x153;While we do not know people on the pathway by names, we see the same individuals over and over on our walks. They have come to know our beautiful, intelligent, sensitive young man. They treat him with dignity and respect while Christopher learns the etiquette of the world in a calm, beautiful environment that has evolved right in front of us,â&#x20AC;? said Diana. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Losing these woods is losing a part of this history; a history that has slowly crumbled in Kanata in the name of progress. Being green means stepping back; progress means saving our lands and reevaluating what is important in life.â&#x20AC;? jessica.cunha@metroland.com

cated within the forest, including the Blandingâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Turtle. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It would be a horrible loss not only to the Kanata area, but to the province of Ontario to lose these lands,â&#x20AC;? said Diana. â&#x20AC;&#x153;This is a land rich in trees and foliage that do not exist in such abundance in other areas. Also, these animals would lose their place to live.â&#x20AC;? She said she and her husband Michael were naĂŻve when they bought their house in an undeveloped area. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We live in an area that backs on to NCC lands. In Kanata, as in many areas of the city, the deer walk about our streets, the raccoons frequent our backyards, the coyotes and foxes are a stones throw away. While from our perspective, we are fortunate to live this close to the forest and see these majestic animals, we now realize in life that we have stolen their sanctuary, their safety. As the City of Ottawa pushes towards a green environment, we believe that it would be in the best interests to save these lands. There are many other areas that the builders can develop.â&#x20AC;?

Mlacak to receive Lucille Broadbent award at art expo JESSICA CUNHA KOURIER-STANDARD John Mlacak is to be awarded the first ever Lucille Broadbent Artistic Achievement Award from the Board of Ottawa Art Expo on Friday, Oct. 29. “I think it’s great,” said Mlacak. “I’m certainly honoured to receive something like that. It’s a recognition of a lot of things I do. I know people appreciate my participation in their events.” Mlacak has been a pillar in the Kanata community for years. Mlacak and his wife Beth moved to the area in the 1965 and he got involved with local municipal and regional councillor and then as reeve of March Township (now the community of Kanata). Mlacak, who primarily paints with oils, participates in numerous art groups and exhibitions. “This is certainly an honour,” he said about the award.

MLACAK, FROM 15

“Particularly from a good part of the artistic community,” said Mlacak. The Lucille Broadbent award is to commemorate the lifelong support to the arts given by the late Lucille Broadbent. It’s presented to an individual or organization that has made a significant contribution to Canada’s and Ottawa’s artistic community. “From the Kanata point of view, Lucille lived on Beaverbrook Lane,” said Beth. “Lucille was the first French teacher at Steven Leacock Public School. They had a connection with Kanata as well as the artist that’s receiving it, namely John.” Mlacak is a founding member of the Kanata Civic Art Gallery, which is located at the John G. Mlacak Centre on Campeau Drive.

Kanata Theatre aims to tame the shrew ROBYN PEKARCHUK To tame a shrew is to tone down, soften or domesticate a bad tempered woman. This is exactly what Kanata Theatre is attempting to do with William Shakespeare’s

The Taming of the Shrew. Directed by Jim Holmes — recent Capital Critics Circle Award nominee for best director of last season’s The Underpants — this timeless comedy is his second production of the season.

The age-old comedy centres on Katherina the shrew, played by Tania Carriere, and her seemingly perfect sister Bianca, played by Tara Sisson. Bianca has many suitors and is anxious to be married.

Enter Petruchio, played by Dale MacEachern, who takes on the task and courts Katherina. All the while Lucentio, played by Aaron Lajeunesse, is pursuing Bianca. Attitudes towards marriage, women’s roles and a classic war of the sexes unfold as this farce is told. Holmes updated the play, making it more relevant for today. “Every generation attempts to re-interpret a play and this generation is no different,” said Holmes. “The trick is finding ways in staying true to the text while making it still true to today’s audience.” The cast has been busy with rehearsals and are ready to tame an audience. “There is an extra sparkle and vibe when performing for an audience,” said leading lady Carriere. Come and be tamed by Kanata Theatre’s The Taming of the Shrew, opening on Nov. 9 and running until Nov. 20. There are no shows on Sundays and Mondays. Tickets are $15 and the curtain goes up at 8 p.m. Student Rush Seats at $5 go on sale at 5 p.m. on the day of each performance, subject to availability of seats.

OTTAWA PUBLIC HEALTH

COUNTERPOINT ACADEMY™

A Smarter Learning Community www.COUNTERPOINTACADEMY.com

The influenza vaccine is now available at doctors’ offices, community health centres and walk-in medical clinics throughout the city. The vaccine is publicly funded and recommended for all people aged six months or older that live, work or study in Ontario. “The flu vaccine is safe, free and the most effective way to protect yourself and your loved ones from the flu,” said Nadine Sicard, Ottawa’s associate medical officer of health. “Getting the flu vaccine is an easy way to avoid missing school or work, or passing on the flu to those around you.” In the coming weeks, most residents can receive the vaccine from traditional providers such as their family doctor, health care practitioner or at a workplace immunization clinic. Ottawa Public Health (OPH) has identified 727 doctors at 312 sites across Ottawa who will be providing flu vaccines. Ottawa residents will also be able to get the flu vaccine at 37 public clinics in neighbourhoods across the city beginning in late October. “We are seeing a trend where young and middle aged adults are skipping the vaccine,” said Sicard. “This is cause for concern as many adults between 20 and 64 years have a chronic condition like lung or

heart disease, which puts them at increased risk for complications from influenza. Taking this easy step along with washing your hands often is the best way to stay healthy this flu season.” This year’s Canadian flu vaccines will cover three strains: the 2009 H1N1 strain, a new H3N2 strain and an influenza B component, which was included in last year’s vaccine. Sicard said she also reminds Ottawa residents of these key steps to avoid the flu: • Wash your hands with soap and water, or use hand sanitizer. • Cover your coughs and sneezes with your arm, not your hand. • Stay at home if you are sick. The flu is a serious, infectious respiratory illness that is caused by the highly contagious influenza virus. This virus spreads rapidly from person to person, usually by a simple cough or sneeze. On average, people who get the flu can be bed-ridden from one week to 10 days. According to Health Canada, up to 8,000 people, most of them young children and seniors will die this year due to flu-related complications like pneumonia. Visit www.ottawa.ca/flu or call the Ottawa Public Health Information Line at 613580-6744 or 311 to obtain a list of health care providers and community clinics that are administering the flu vaccine.

Nicolas Ruszkowski

Nicolas Ruszkowski VP, Communications Ottawa Hospital In 1992, I moved in with my Polish grandparents; Babcia (grandma) and Dziadzio (grandpa). Before long, I noticed my grandmother’s calling as a person who communicated, rather frequently, with Ottawa’s hospital establishment. One day, I found a ﬁle folder that belonged to Babcia. It was literally bursting at the seams, ﬁlled with two dozen letters to hospital CEOs around the city. “Wait times are too long,” she wrote. Why are emergency departments so busy? Why don’t I have easier access to my patient records? Can you do more to manage the pain I’ve had since my hip replacement? Are those child-like people in white lab coats really doctors? Now, in my role as Vice-President, Communications and Outreach at The Ottawa Hospital, I often think of Babcia. Wait times, high occupancy, patient records,

pain management, quality and safety of care; the issues she worried about then are still completely relevant today. How would she feel about that? She would hate that we still deal with the same problems, but she’d appreciate our progress. She would love writing to one hospital CEO, instead of three, since the merger of the General, Civic and Riverside hospitals into The Ottawa Hospital. She would be impressed to know The Ottawa Hospital serves 1.2 million Eastern Ontarians, and sees more patients in a year than any other academic health science centre in Canada. She would remind me that hospitals, imperfect or not, were always there for her and Dziadzio. Fractures were painful, but surgeries allowed my grandparents to walk well into their nineties. She would want to know what hospitals do, in spite of their challenges, to ensure they still provide the comfort, care and hope our communities need to keep thriving. This column is for Babcia, and anyone else who cares about their healthcare. Nicolas Ruszkowski is VP, Communications and Outreach at The Ottawa Hospital. Each week, he will share behind-the-scenes insight from the hospital. E-mail him at nruszkowski@toh.on.ca

JESSICA CUNHA KOURIER-STANDARD It was their form of entertainment, something to brighten the mood and enliven the atmosphere of war. Terry Meagher, a veteran of the Korean War put together a CD Songs of the combat soldier in order to preserve a piece of Canadian history. “The idea was before everybody died off – it was a piece of history that would die off – so we put it on CD and a book goes with it,” he said. Meagher got together a group of veterans and serving members of the Canadian Forces, as well as some music students to help put together the music. “Outside of the musicians everyone is a veteran or serving soldier,” said Meagher, who served as an infantry soldier and paratrooper. “They volunteered their time to do this.”

With the war in Afghanistan, soldiers have the option of using the internet, cell phones and other forms of electronic entertainment to keep themselves busy, he said. In Korea, none of that was available. “The songs are still known; some of them,” he said. “But Korea was the last war in which Canadian soldiers sang. They sang on the marches, that was the only entertainment in Korea. There were no CDs, no record players, no communication with anyone but his buddy. So he turned to singing for his entertainment.” SING SONG On Nov.6, Meagher and his group of musicians and singers will put on a sing-a-long at the Royal Canadian Legion in Kanata. Some of the songs they will sing are from the two World Wars and others will be from Korea, some never before heard by the Canadian public, he said. “This is not a choir that people are going to hear,” said Meagher. “We have tried to simulate the way the songs were sung in Korea; but that doesn’t make it boring.” COMBAT SONGS, SEE 23

Lennox® knows you don’t compromise. And neither do we. That’s why we dedicate ourselves to product innovation and customer service. So go ahead, get comfortable.

Laurel Johnson received the Paul Van Steen Sport Achievement Award on Oct. 19 from the Bridlewood Community Association. A triathlete, Johnson has raced in six Ironman competitions, her latest being the world championship in Hawaii earlier this month. Johnson said when she got home from Hawaii it was like a post-Christmas let-down after the adrenaline of competing. Then she got the call about the award. “I was just really, really touched,” she said. Her neighbours, Marie-Claire and Gerry Thauvette nominated her for the award.

A resident of Bridlewood since 1997, Johnson has been coaching and encouraging young children to be fit and active, said new BCA president Margaret Kellaway. Johnson runs the Kids of Steel triathlon and duathlon, which include swimming, biking, and running for the triathlon and running, biking and running in the duathlon. Both are conducted over shorter distances than those competed in by adults. Johnson said she’s been hosting the event for two years, which is open to all ages. Johnson competed in her first triathlon in 1994. She took an 11-year break and got back into the sport in 2005. PVS, SEE 24

“I wanted to do something huge,” said Johnson about getting back into the competition. “It’s huge to get to Hawaii.” She has competed in the Hawaii world championships twice. “I don’t take that for granted.” VOLUNTEERS NEEDED The BCA held its executive and committee elections but still has a few vacant spots to fill. Positions are still open for first vice-president, sports committee, communications

Boys’ soccer kicks up the spirit CASSANDRA GALLO ALL SAINTS CATHOLIC HIGH SCHOOL The All Saints Catholic High School student body filled the gymnasium with cheers and spirit as the junior boys’ soccer team ran through the crowd during the first pep rally of the year on Oct. 20. As tattoo-clad, spirit-boosted students poured out of the gym to watch the game, the boys hammered at their foe, Longfields Davidson Heights High

School. Each team played well as they were motivated by the spectators. Ryan Martello, a Grade 10 student, played exceptionally well and almost scored the only goal of the game. The game ended in a shutout. “It’s not about whether you win or lose, it is about how hard you cheer,” said Meghan Walsh. Earlier in the pep rally students and staff were formally introduced to various ASH teams including swim, tennis, golf,

girls’ field hockey, boys’ and girls’ volleyball, cross country, and of course the boys’ junior and senior soccer. The cheer and dance squad made a tunnel and welcomed each team with cheers. “The pep rally was full of energy and lots of fun,” said Danielle Peltier. “It was a great way to pump-up the teams.” The event hosts, Dallon Kuprowski and Victoria Head, were pleased with the rally outcome and they said they look forward to organizing another soon.

Trick-or-treat tips to stay safe It’s that time again when children enjoy dressing up and roaming the neighborhoods in search of their favorite candy. When you think about it, 364 days of the year we tell our kids, “Don’t take candy from strangers,” but then on Halloween we send them out to take candy from every stranger they can find. Sound dangerous? It doesn’t have to be. Take certain precautions will help keep kids safe. Using safety tips and common

sense can help you make the most of your Halloween season. If everyone prepares a bit and follows these common sense rules, Halloween will be a safe and happy event. • Wear a properly fitted costume that is bright and non-flammable. • Use reflective tape on your costume so you can be seen in the dark. • Use face make-up or enlarge the eyes on your mask so you can see well. • When wearing a mask, push it up on your head while walking. • Go trick-or-treating with family or friends.

• Let people know your route. • If someone invites you alone into a house, say “No thanks” and then leave. • Don’t go anywhere with someone you don’t know. • Only go to homes with lights on. • Walk, don’t run; and look all ways before crossing the street. • Trick-or-treat on one side of the street and then do the other side. • Use a flashlight to help you see in the dark. JESSICA CUNHA PHOTO • If you need assistance, speak to a Avery Crockette-Clark, 7, Cassidy Clark, 12, and Savannah Clark, 4, had fun police officer. • Have an adult check the treats picking out pumpkins to carve for Halloween on Oct. 24 at the corner of Eagleson and Hazeldean roads. you collect before you eat them.

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.

The world’s largest arts and crafts retail chain opened its new store at the Grant Crossing shopping area on the north side of Hazeldean Road on Saturday, Oct. 23 in an 8 a,m. grand opening event that included a red ribbon cutting, free tote bags, free Tim Hortons coffee and cake and lots of smiles and friendly customer assistance. Blue “grand opening” balloons hung over the two main aisles in the store as about two dozen shoppers gathered outside the main door of the store, which sits between the newly opened Winners and HomeSense outlets at Grant Crossing,

just before the 8 a.m. opening. At exactly 8 a.m., Michaels district manager Rod Falkins cut the red ribbon to mark the grand opening of the store. Holding the ribbon for the ceremony, which took place just outside the front door of the store in view of the waiting inaugural shoppers, were store manager Jennifer Pieroway and assistant manager David Shapiro, with the store’s staff of 20 or so lined up behind them. In his remarks before slicing the red ribbon with a pair of scissors, Mr. Falkins said that Michaels had been trying to locate a store in the area for the past five years and finally it had been achieved.

He had delivered the same message to the staff just moments earlier in a last minute pep talk in the store while also reminding the staff that they had all learned a lot in the past several weeks. He reminded them as well to be happy and friendly and make a good impression on customers. “Let have fun today,” he urged them. An earlier staff gathering had reminded the staff to smile and be helpful since customers will generally not know where any items are in the new store. Immediately after the ribbon cutting when the store did open its doors to the waiting customers, Brenda Thomas of Richmond was the first customer to grab a shopping cart and take to the aisles. This newly opened Michaels arts and crafts store is the fourth Michaels store in the Ottawa area. A fifth one will be opening this coming weekend. Across North America, Michaels operates over 1,000 stores, with each store displaying about 40,000 different products, including a selection of arts, crafts, framing, floral, wall décor and seasonal merchandise. It all began back in 1976 when a Dallas businessman opened the first Michaels outlet. It has grown and expanded since that time, reaching over 500 stores by 1995. This new Hazeldean Road store has a staff of

about 60 people, most of whom are part time employees. It is the size of most of the new Michaels stores now being opened. It also features high ceilings which enhances the shopping experience. Michaels is happy to be located in a setting flanked by the Winners and HomeSense stores not only because the stores are of a similar size but also because they tend to serve the same demographic. This new Michaels store held a “Friends and Families” night on Thursday, Oct. 21 at which friends and family members of the staff could visit the store and shop. This helps not only to make the staff more familiar with their roles and the store’s inventory but also catches any glitches that might arise. For instance, one of the six checkout stations had problems that evening, a problem which was able to be fixed in time for the Saturday grand opening. With this store within view of Scotiabank Place, the home of the National Hockey League Ottawa Senators, it is not surprising that there is a display of Senators memorabilia just inside the main door. Nearby for the official opening was a table where customers could sign up for Michaels email list. Departments in a Michaels store include art supplies, beads, craft painting, framing, home décor, weddings, Christmas and gifting, floral, general crafts, yarn and needlecrafts, seasons and celebrations, and kids and teachers.

NEVIL HUNT PHOTO

Don Herron of Kanata gets a front wheel off the ground during a tractor pull in West Carleton on Sunday. Herron’s McCormick Standard tractor dates from 1952, but still managed a pull of 156.9 feet. It was the final event of the year at Richard Foley’s farm, located between Arnprior and Pakenham. In the spring, new dates will be posted at www.tnediesel.com.

Audrey Hanniman In fond remembrance of “my old friend” who passed away Oct. 28, 2009

My Old Friend Today I said goodbye to my old friend I pray some day we get to meet again Under one more clear, blue sky Up there where the eagles ﬂy And we’ll go walking in the sunshine With a big smile on our face, Race the river to the ocean, Go splashing in the waves, And I’ll wrap my arms around you, We’ll be together once again. And I’ll tell you how much I’ve missed you My old friend. I know you’re up there looking down On that rainbow bridge we talked about, There’s a place for me and you Somewhere up there behind the moon. (Song & lyrics Johnny Reid)

I think of you often Reina
