Parkway proposal revised Building cut to nine storeys, still ‘too much’ Jessica Cunha

jessica.cunha@metroland.com

EMC news - A controversial plan to build a mid-rise condo in Beaverbrook received a cool response from residents at a public meeting held on Tuesday,

Sept. 18. The developer, who owns the land at 2 The Parkway, submitted a last minute revision to the project’s site proposal, calling for changes to the building’s height, setback and landscape. The Morley Hoppner Group revised the proposed height of the mid-rise building to nine storeys, down from 10 storeys in the first revision, and 16 storeys in the original plan. “We’ve been working with the city,” said Ken Hoppner, adding the developer is trying to come up with something

“that fits the community.” Although a number of changes have been made to the proposal, Beata Myhill, acting president of the Kanata Beaverbrook Community Association (KBCA), said it’s still not acceptable. “Yes, it’s better, but it’s not there yet,” she said. Nine storeys is still “too much” for the area, she said, adding the density far outweighs any other Beaverbrook property. See PARKWAY, page 2

EMC news - Six-year-old Isaac Ciarlo is excited to be nearing the end of his chemotherapy treatment. The Grade 2 St. Gabriel Catholic Elementary School student was the guest of honour during Chalk Day on Thursday, Sept. 20, at the north Kanata school. When Isaac strolled onto the playground just after 2 p.m. to kick off the event, his classmates erupted in shouts and cheers. “You can tell your friends are really happy to see you,” said teacher Sue Dauncey, as Isaac settled himself in among his friends. Around 60 students from three Grade 2 classes took to the pavement, drawing colourful pictures and writing inspiring messages for Isaac and other children undergoing treatment. Students wrote messages such as “Know U R loved,” “Get better soon,” and “Smile.” “I want the people who have cancer to feel better,” said one girl about her “Hope you get well soon,” message. “We wanted to support him,” said Dauncey about hosting the Chalk Day event. “It’s great now that the kids can see him.” Isaac helped his friends draw pictures on the ground and raced on the grass with his classmates – who were almost all covered in chalk dust by the end of the period. Isaac’s mother Tricia drew a gold cancer ribbon among the student’s messages of love and hope.

Parkway proposal belongs in Town Centre: resident Continued from page 1

“It’s two and a half times the density of The Atriums,” said Myhill, “because it’s a teeny piece of property. “This property has the same density of the Town Centre… that’s where this property belongs.” Hoppner said he had “no comment” when told the community thought nine storeys was still too high. Resident Mike Nyenhuis said the developer should just stick with townhomes and scrap the nine-storey midrise. “Look at Callaghan and Reaney (courts) to see what the community wants,” he said during the comment portion of the evening. “There’d be no fuss, no muss.” Retired architect and Beaverbrook resident David Evans said if the developer was smart, he would reverse the location of the building and townhomes – having the townhouses front Teron Road and the mid-rise tucked in the back of the property. “If we could only tell them what to do,” he said, adding if it’s kept the way it is, the building will be an “eyesore

for miles around.” City planner Marc Magierowicz presented the changes to the crowd of just more than 100 who turned out for the meeting at the Kanata Recreation Complex. The developer wasn’t present at the meeting. “There’s been significant revisions,” said Magierowicz, adding he understood the changes might not be as major as some would like to see. The revised plan calls for: • Removing the raised berm and top floor amenity area. • A 72-unit building, down from 120 units in the first revision and 125 in the original proposal. • A four-metre setback from the property line, up from three metres in the first revision and 2.8 metres in the original proposal. The original setback (as the area is currently zoned) is 7.5 metres. • In the second revision, the developer doesn’t call for a change in the landscaping buffer, which is currently 1.5 metres. The first revision and original proposal called for a reduction to 1.2 metres. The proposal still includes the 10 townhomes, with the entrances and exits to the townhouses and mid-rise

building on The Parkway. “Staff is reviewing what came in,” said Magierowicz, adding residents had until Sept. 25 to submit comments on the new revision. Comments will still be looked at after that date, he said, but may not make it into the report. SHOW SUPPORT

Myhill said she wasn’t expecting as large a turnout as 100 people at the third meeting. She said she hopes residents will consider attending the planning committee meeting, tentatively scheduled for Oct. 23. “It’s important for the councillors on planning committee to see how much we care,” she said. Kanata North Coun. Marianne Wilkinson said it’s important the presentations for planning committee are thought out before hand so there is no repetition. “It’s been a lot for people to stand up for their community,” she said. Residents have attended numerous meetings for both 2 The Parkway and another proposed development just up the street at 1131

The city is set to make its planning report public on Oct.

oper. “They can keep coming back and making revisions,” he said. “If the developer wasn’t listening, he wouldn’t be making changes.”

Teron, Mlacak condemn Beaverbrook development Jessica Cunha

jessica.cunha@metroland.com

EMC news - Two men who were influential in the growth of Kanata, both politically and esthetically, say there is something wrong with Ottawa’s development system. Bill Teron, known as the “father of Kanata” who developed the shape of the community, and John Mlacak, former reeve of March township and mayor of the former city of Kanata, both attended the third meeting on a rezoning application for 2 The Park-

way, in Beaverbrook, on Sept. 18. “We’re here again,” said Teron. “This is a sham.” Nothing came out of the first two meetings, he said. “Tonight, it will be the same thing.” He said if the developer’s concept is approved and the community appeals it, the Ontario Municipal Board (OMB) will side with the developer. “How many times has the OMB sided with the community?” said Teron. “It’s a waste of time and money going to the OMB.”

the developer that it fits and by us that it doesn’t. “It’s going to be a lot more work because you’re dealing with an argumentative situation.” He added that even though the building has dropped to nine storeys from 16, it’s not enough and the developer will use it to say they listened to the community’s request that the first proposal didn’t fit. “We’re vulnerable with the current Official Plan,” said Mlacak. “It’s not an easy,

clear-cut battle.” Developer Ken Hoppner of the Morley Hoppner Group, which owns the land at 2 The Parkway, said the company has been working “since day one” on coming up with a proposal that fits within the community. “We’ve been working with the city for almost a year now,” said Hoppner, adding they want to satisfy everybody’s concerns. City planner Marc Magierowicz said the developer can

revise the plan as many times as he likes. “There’s no limit on the amount of revisions,” he said, adding not every revision would require a public meeting. “We’re not quite sure what we’re going to end up with,” said Kanata North Coun. Marianne Wilkinson, adding she’s working on behalf of the community to find something that works for everyone. The proposal can be seen online at ottawa.ca/devapps.

He said if the community needs to appeal the decision, it will do so in a court of law. “I will continue to back a review in the courts,” he said, adding he would not fund a fight with the OMB. “The OMB is in disfavour of the public.” Mlacak added the rezoning process itself, as well as the city’s Official Plan, are flawed because they are based on who has the better argument, not on hard facts. “Everything seems to be a guideline,” said Mlacak. “Everything can be argued – by

A 57-year-old man was treated with second degree burns to his hands and a 20year-old woman suffered an asthma attack brought on by smoke inhalation. Both were taken to hospital. A 48-year-old firefighter was also taken to hospital with a non-life threatening abdominal injury. The family was awoken by a smoke alarm on Saturday morning and the father tired to put out the fire, suffering burns to his hands. The fire was contained to the kitchen, but there was heavy smoke damage to the rest of the home; damages have been estimated at $200,000 to the home and $100,000 to its contents. Firefighters evacuated two of the neighbouring homes as a precaution, but neither suffered any damage.

Family is ‘incredibly grateful’ for school community support Continued from page 1

The school has gone “above and beyond what we’ve ever expected,” said Tricia. “They’re doing it for us. They’re doing it for Isaac. “It really helps.” She said her family is “incredibly grateful” for the support from school staff for all her children, which include Jacob, who’s in Grade 4, and

Matthew, a Grade 7 student at All Saints Catholic High School. “They look after my other kids,” she said. “We’ve just been absolutely overwhelmed by the support.” Chalk Day is an initiative started by the Pediatric Oncology Group of Ontario (POGO). The organization donates chalk to schools that want to take part by drawing pictures and mes-

sages of encouragement and hope for young cancer patients and survivors during September, which is Childhood Cancer Awareness Month. “(It’s) to lift the spirits of kids who are fighting the fight,” said Tricia. END OF TREATMENT

Isaac was diagnosed with a Wilms’ tumour, a cancer of

the kidneys found most commonly in children, on March 16, 2012. He wasn’t experiencing pain or discomfort, said his mother Tricia, who happened to notice some slight swelling and took him to the doctor. Tests picked up the tumour, as well as dark spots on Isaac’s lungs. “It all happened within a week,” said Tricia, adding the staff at CHEO were helpful.

“We were really fortunate.” Wilms’ has about an 85 per cent cure rate, and within six weeks of radiation treatments, Isaac’s tumour, which had measured in at eight by 13 by nine centimetres, had shrunk to four by four by four. The doctors were then able to remove his kidney. Isaac proudly showed off his scar, which he calls his “shark bite.” He’s been granted a Dis-

St. Gabriel Catholic Elementary School students Isaac Ciarlo and Rowan Kovacs are best friends. Three Grade 2 classes took part in Chalk Day on Sept. 20, drawing messages of hope for children undergoing cancer treatments. Isaac is just starting his last round of chemotherapy and should be finished in about nine weeks.

ney Cruise to Disney World from the Children’s Wish Foundation, said Tricia. When asked what he’s most excited about, Isaac answered, “being done with treatment!” Isaac has entered his last round of chemotherapy, which should wrap up in about nine weeks. “He will be done treatment by his seventh birthday,” said Tricia.

Landfill assessment submitted, urban boundary expansion approved Jessica Cunha

jessica.cunha@metroland.com

EMC news - The first item up for discussion at the Kanata North ward council meeting was Waste Management’s environmental assessment for a new landfill. The assessment for the new West Carleton Environmental Centre on Carp Road was submitted to the province on Sept. 14, said Kanata North Coun. Marianne Wilkinson. Residents have until Nov. 2 to review and comment on the submitted assessment, which can be found online at wcec.

wm.com. The province, not the city, is responsible for making the final decision, said Wilkinson According to Waste Management, the new facility would provide up to 75 “green jobs” and would include: • Residential diversion. • Materials recycling. • Organics processing. • Construction and demolition. • Electronic waste handling. The new landfill would have a total capacity of 6.5 million cubic metres. Wilkinson said the new dump site would be “similar

The Ontario Municipal Board (OMB) has approved expanding the urban boundary, which includes a “large urban expansion up March Road,” said Wilkinson. The new area is about the same size as Morgan’s Grant, and extends north from Maxwell Bridge Road up to St. Isidore Roman Catholic Parish, she said. “There will be lots of public meetings on that,” she said, adding the developers who own the area will have to work to come up with a cohesive building plan, which will take several years. At the moment, the expanded area is in West Carleton-March Coun. Eli ElChantiry’s ward, but would be incorporated into north Kanata after being built up. “He and I are going to be working together on this,” said Wilkinson, adding the process should begin this fall.

All Saints students drum up support for Terry Fox fundraiser Blair Edwards blair.edwards@metroland.com

ONLINE FUNDRAISING

The committee organizing All Saints Terry Fox Run is encouraging students to collect pledges online this year. During the rally, the committee asked two volunteers to participate in an online contest, racing each other on two laptops placed at the front of the assembly to register their name on the Terry Fox fundraising site: www.terryfoxrun.

org. Grade 11 student Steve Smaridge emerged victorious, winning a Starbucks gift pack. ROUTE

All Saints’ five-kilometre run will start just before lunchtime on Sept. 28 at the high school and continue along Kanata Avenue, then loop back across several residential streets and parks. The event will stagger start times, with runners going first, followed by walkers. The school will offer a barbecue lunch for the participants. The school mascot, Eddie the Yeti, will travel ahead of the runners and walkers in a car along with several student council members who are organizing the event. The school’s Terry Fox Run organizing committee challenged their fellow students to fundraise $20,000 – $7,300 more than last year. “We all know someone who is battling cancer or who has battled cancer,” said Medeiros..

Six teens embraced in a huddle shortly before a school assembly for the Terry Fox Run on Thursday, Sept. 21. The tight knit group of students worked together for weeks preparing for the day’s assembly, hoping to drum up support from their fellow 1,600 students at All Saints Catholic High School for the Sept. 28 charity run. Their goal was ambitious – raise $20,000. The organizing committee started the assembly off with an inspirational bang, showing a video of Terry Fox’s Run across Canada. “This group of students is so motivated to get the school spirit up,” said Erika Erskine, one of the teachers supervising the All Saints student council. “They really want the students to obtain a goal of $20,000.” The run’s organizers appeared on stage wearing Tshirts with stickers stating their motivation for participating in the run. The teens took turns read-

ing their T-shirts to the assembly. “This year, I’m running for all the children who didn’t survive cancer,” said Victoria Medeiros, a Grade 12 student. Aaron Doucet said, “I’m running for my grandmother who held me as a baby boy but I never knew her.” Stacey Lance, a teacher at All Saints, then performed Reckless Running, a song she wrote when she was a teenager, shortly after her father died of Hodgkin’s lymphoma. “After my father passed away I made it my mission to raise as much money for the Terry Fox Run as possible,” said Lance.

Meeting Ottawa’s infrastructure challenge

ollowing the presentation of a report on the state of the city’s infrastructure last week to the city’s finance committee, it has become clear Ottawa has an infrastructure problem. The potential consequences of this problem were brought sharply into focus recently when a portion of highway 174 was closed by a sinkhole. While the extent of Ottawa’s problem is not so acute as the east-end sinkhole, the

report indicates that without a significant infusion of cash to increase maintenance activity, the city runs the risk, in the long run, of seeing things like sinkholes, broken water mains and collapsed roofs popping up like dandelions from Carp to Carlington to Cumberland. We cannot afford to let this happen. Just ask anyone who had to sit in traffic on Montreal Road or Barrhaven residents who saw watering restrictions imposed in 2011 following the

Woodroffe Avenue water main break how much fun it is to have critical infrastructure fail. Yet despite a two-per-cent infrastructure levy that was imposed from 2008 to 2010, more than $400 million in federal and provincial stimulus cash and the $340million Ottawa on the Move program, the city is only able to scrape by when it comes to maintaining things like roads, recreation facilities, libraries and other civic buildings. This means the city needs

to find $165 million per year, up from the $80 million it’s currently spending, to maintain what it already has and even more once new infrastructure is added by 2022. As Mayor Jim Watson said following the presentation of the report to council, there are several ways this maintenance can be paid for: adding debt, increasing taxes or seeking funding from other levels of government. Looking to other levels of government, at least in the

short term, appears to be a non-starter – the province is looking to spend less money, not more, and the federal government is poised to slash thousands of civil service jobs in Ottawa to get its own fiscal house in order. Borrowing money to pay for what are permanent, ongoing needs is a dubious course of action. The need to maintain infrastructure isn’t going to stop anytime soon, so why mortgage the future to pay for it?

That leaves us with finding additional money to pay for this vital, necessary work. This can be done in two ways. The city can raise taxes or money can be cut from other areas of the city budget. Things like upcoming capital projects can be put on hold or cancelled, city staff can be cut or services can be reduced or eliminated to shift money to pay for these needs. Either tax hikes or spending cuts will bite taxpayers in the end, but such decisions are the burden of leadership. How council handles these choices will have far-reaching implications for this city – let’s hope it chooses wisely.

COLUMN

Oh no, not more about 1972! CHARLES GORDON Funny Town

f it weren’t for the hockey lockout the anniversary of the 1972 Canada-Russia series would not have received so much attention. Whatever the reason, the attention goes on and on and on and it may be that anyone who wasn’t around in 1972 - a good chunk of the population - might have seen more than enough of it. The good news for them is that it should all be over soon. September 28 marks the 40-year anniversary of Henderson’s goal in the final game. Mind you, there is still the 40-year anniversary of the plane ride home, the 40-year anniversary of the team’s welcome in Toronto, and there could be many others. Still, for all intents and purposes it’s over. Not that it hasn’t been interesting, especially to look at the lessons we think we’ve learned from those moments in time 40 years ago. There was a lot of jingoism in Canadians’ attitude toward the series. Along with our love for our team went a certain amount of hatred for the Russians. That seems, if not embarrassing, at least quaint when looked at today. We were willing to tolerate some thuggish behaviour by our team, not to mention the officials, if it was necessary to win the series. There were also judgments made about the way the then-Soviets played hockey. They were emotionless robots, uncreative, unable to play with passion, it was said, despite the incredibly high level at which they played. We wince at that today, with so many Russian players playing so well on “our” teams in the National Hockey League. Perhaps you can argue that Russian play-

ers can now play with passion and creativity because they have been freed from the yoke of Communist oppression. But more likely the difference is in the way we perceive things. Heaven help us that we should be drawing deep philosophical conclusions from hockey anniversaries, but if there is a conclusion to be drawn it is that the world and Canada have changed a lot in 40 years. That may be difficult to fathom for those who feel like it only happened yesterday, but it’s true. To begin with, 40 years ago there were no Russians in the NHL, in fact hardly anyone who wasn’t Canadian. Forty years ago, we feared the Russians in a way we do not now. The Cold War was at its height. The Soviet Union was a closed society. The hotel rooms were lousy and could have been bugged. The Russians didn’t trust us all that much either, although our hotel rooms were better. Everything isn’t wonderful now, but the Cold War is over, the Russian hotel rooms are better and probably not bugged. There is no Soviet Union and there is dissent in Russia - to what avail no one is quite sure. Players from all over what used to be the Soviet bloc are performing, creatively and with passion, in the NHL, or will be, when the NHL begins. Is any of that because we “won” the 1972 series? Maybe. Or maybe it’s because we almost lost it and realized there was something to be learned from the way the Russians played. And they learned that there was something to be learned from the way we played. As for Canadian fans, did we learn anything? Did we learn that it was a little excessive to be as excessive as we were in cheering our boys on? Probably not. Think of the waves of patriotism that swept over Sidney Crosby when he scored the game-winning goal against the United States at Vancouver 38 years later. We are still going to get worked up over hockey. Whether we get too worked up is another question. We’ll get another chance to think about it when the 50th anniversary of all this rolls around in 10 years. You can hardly wait, right?

where we can have the most impact,” said Leu. “Certainly we’ll be looking at the city budget.” The Chamber held its annual general meeting at the Brookstreet Hotel on Tuesday, Sept. 18, and introduced a brand new executive: • Rick Chase, president elect. • Greg Weatherdon, past president. • Angela Houle, past president. • Peter O’Leary, vice-president communications. • Lynn Johnston, treasurer. • Cathy Smithe, vice president, membership. This year’s board of directors is: Houle, Blair Latour, Phil Nguyen, Mark Nisbett, O’Leary, Weatherdon, Stephen Buss, Chase, Megan Cornell, Joanne Ironside, Johnston, Phil Sweetnam, Barbara Lippett and Alana Haining. The Chamber, which presently has a membership of 400 businesses, saw a net income of $14,000, with the increase coming from the growth in membership. “We’re getting more recognition in the community,” Leu said. “I think there’s more recognition of who we are and what we do.” The Chamber has a host of special events on its schedule for this year including: • Food for Thought, Kanata’s Food and Wine Show at the Kanata Holiday Inn Hotel & Suites on Nov. 15. • The People’s Choice Business Awards at the Brookstreet Hotel on Feb. 13. The Chamber also has a new location this year, moving from the second floor of its site on 555 Legget Dr. to the ground floor. “We grew so much we had to move to a new location,” said Leu. It has also started a Chamber Academy, a series of workshops and small seminars available to its business members. Every month, the Chamber will continue to offer breakfast and after-hour meetings as advertised on its website: www.kanatachamber.com.

EMC events - This year’s Retirement Living Fair, organized by the Kanata Seniors Council, will take place on Oct. 14 from 2 to 4 p.m. in Halls A, B, C and D of the Mlacak Centre at 2500 Campeau Dr. Originally conceived as a way of bringing the retirement community together with those companies and organizations whose services

are designed to make retirement living more interesting, the fair continues to add new twists on what has proved to be a popular information forum for retirees. This year is no exception. “This year, apart from our regular displays, we’ve been able to add a number of new organizations which have something to offer to our growing population of retirees,” said event organizer, Renate Harder. Among the newcomers is a stand featuring skin and beauty products designed for older adult skin. Harder said that would be of particular interest to the ladies.

There are also booths featuring aqua fit classes, a travel agency that will provide information about short trips and excursions, as well as longer holidays. Harder said there will be a host of other information booths all featuring activities and support systems of interest to many in the older adult community who may not be aware of many of these facilities. “It’s a really useful onestop shop where seniors can find out what’s out there for them,” said Harder. “And to keep everybody’s energies up, we’ll be serving coffee, tea and cookies.”

Fall tradition of burning leaves became a family pastime

MARY COOK Mary Cook’s Memories ing out at Northcote. “Well, I sure hope we aren’t the first,” he retorted every year as long as I can remember. I wasn’t big enough or

strong enough to manage a rake. So my job was to circle the mounds and with my feet, try to make each pile round, and push any wayward leaves into place.

It took most of the day to round up all the leaves and when we were finished we would have about four big piles of leaves in the centre of the yard. Of course, Mother, who made an occasion out of the simplest events, wouldn’t let us light the leaves until after the sun had gone down and the yard was in complete darkness.

Supper would be early that night; another excuse for Father to complain. He liked everything on time and that included his meals. So by the time we had eaten, cleaned up the kitchen and hauled out chairs to circle the mounds of leaves, nightfall had settled in. We would start out with heavy jackets on to ward off

the chill of the fall evening. My oldest brother, Everett, was always in charge of the matches. He had the lighting of the leaves down pat. He rolled sheets of the Renfrew Mercury into tight cones, and he lit the paper, setting it ablaze. See LEAVES, page 19

his time of year, we all smelled the same at Northcote School. The heavy scent of burning leaves penetrated everything we wore and no amount of airing out could eliminate the odour of our smoke-infested clothes. But none of us minded. Burning leaves was something we all looked forward to at our farm and as far as I knew everyone in Northcote did the same thing. None of us minded the smell of smoke on our clothes- well, that is, we five kids and Mother. Father said making the event into a grand affair was something he had little time for: too many other more important things to do on the farm instead of making a party out of burning leaves. Our front and side yards were full of big maple trees and by the time the last days of summer rolled around the leaves were in some places knee deep. We waited until the limbs were completely bare and then on a Saturday it was time to rake the leaves and pile them into big mounds well away from the house and barns. “You’re asking for trouble,” Father would say. “Just one little spark and the whole place would go up in smoke.” Mother paid him no heed, asking him to come up with even one barn or house that had been burned to the ground because of leaf burn-

Fall the time to bake with apples

ow that fall is officially here, the cool, sunny days are just right for a family outing to visit one of the many apple orchards in Eastern Ontario. While you’re there, ask the orchard staff to recommend which apples are best for eating and which types are better for baking. For this apple cinnamon braid, you’ll need two or three baking apples. The recipe starts with the dough cycle in your bread-making machine and finishes in the oven. Shaping the dough into a braid is very easy. Give the recipe a try now, and you’ll want to make it again for your guests on Thanksgiving weekend. This bread is nice with breakfast, with coffee or for dessert.

Dough • 2/3 cup water • 3 tbsp. margarine or butter, softened • 3 tbsp. white sugar • 1 tsp. salt • 2 cups ﬂour • 1 1/2 tsp. bread machine yeast

Filling • 2 cups apples, peeled and sliced • 1 tbsp. white sugar • 1 tbsp. ﬂour • 1/4 tsp. cinnamon

PAT TREW Food ‘n’ Stuff • 1/2 tsp. margarine or butter Place the ingredients for the dough into your bread machine in the order given. Select the dough cycle. While the machine is working, prepare the apples. Mix all the ingredients for the filling in a microwave-safe bowl and let sit for 15 minutes. Microwave the apple mixture on high for four to five minutes, stirring at one-minute intervals. When the apples are soft and syrupy, the filling is done. Set it aside to cool. When the dough is ready, remove it from the bread machine. Place it on a lightly floured surface, cover with a damp cloth and let it rest for 10 minutes so it will be easier to work with. On the floured surface, roll the dough into a 33-by-20centimetre pan. That’s about three hand widths long and two hand widths wide. Trim the edges of the dough, if necessary, to get the shape. Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil, grease the foil and then place the dough on it.

Spoon the filling down the middle of the rectangle, so that the centre third of the dough is covered. To shape the braid, first make cuts in the long side of the dough. Each cut should be 2.5 centimetres apart, and extend from the outer edge of the dough in to the edge of the filling. Next, starting at one end of the rectangle, fold a strip of dough diagonally over the filling. Now, fold a strip of dough from the other side so it overlaps the first strip in the centre. Continue, alternating sides, so that the filling is completely covered. Cover the dough with a damp cloth and let it rise in a warm place for about 30 minutes or until double. Use a ruler to measure the height of the braid before and during the rising to tell when it’s ready. Bake at 375 F (190 C) for 30 minutes, or until golden brown. When the bread is done, use the aluminum foil to transfer it to a rack. Slide the foil out from under the braid and let it cool. Slice to serve.

Most people dream of one day owning a home. But if the home you purchase does not meet your needs and budget, this dream can quickly turn into a nightmare. That’s where a real estate agent can help. He or she is there to help you identify your specific needs while respecting your financial limits. But how can you tell if a real estate agent is competent? First of all, he or she should take the time to fully understand what type of home you are looking for. For example, do you want a single-family dwelling, semi-detached home, condo, farm or chalet? The agent should also look at what size of home you will need. This will largely depend on the number of people in your family. A competent agent will also ask about any special needs your family may have, such as a wheelchair ramp or first floor bathroom. He or she should also ask where you would like the home to be located - for instance, next to a school, near public transportation, or in a quiet neighbourhood. Since it’s easy to get caught up in the fantasy of finally owning a home, a real estate agent can help you keep your feet firmly planted on the ground. This means going over all the costs involved in buying a home-both the obvious costs such as the mortgage and insurance, as well as the less obvious costs such as

Do you know which questions to ask the newspaper representative in order for your advertisement to be effective? Once the advertisement has been published: -are you prepared to answer the phone every time someone is interested in your ad? -would you be able to recognize a serious buyer who wonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t waste your time? -can you be available to show potential buyers your home? -do you have enough time to answer everyoneâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s questions?

Leaves the smell of fall: Cook Continued from 13

That way he could poke the paper deep into the mounds of leaves, making sure it burned from the inside out. Very clever, was my brother Everett. We sat on the kitchen chairs, circling the burning piles, but well back from the fire, we five children and Mother. Father chose to stay in the house reading the Ottawa Farm Journal. If marshmallows were in existence back then, we certainly didn’t know about them. And

it is doubtful we could have afforded them anyway. So the only enjoyment we got was sitting on the chairs and watching the raked leaves go up in smoke. Mother always took her mouth organ out on those nights and she expected us to sing along to whatever she was playing. Emerson refused. Audrey with her clear, sweet voice was the only one who could carry a tune and so she and Mother provided what entertainment there was. I would sit on the chair and listen, watching the flames

rise towards the sky and wonder why Father couldn’t see the sheer joy of the evening. The old iron pump was right in the middle of the yard and although Mother said there was absolutely no need for it, Father made sure there were several pails on the pump platform just in case the blaze got out of hand. By the time the fire was raging, we took off our jackets as the heat came at us in waves. It didn’t take long for the piles of leaves to be burnt right to the ground and I often wondered if it was worth

REAL ESTATE

the effort. When it was all over and we had hauled the kitchen chairs back into the house, Father would let out a big sigh, as if he carried the cares of the world on his shoulders. He would go out to the yard for the first time since supper was over, and he would pump many pails of water, and pour it over the remnants of the burning leaves. He was taking no chances that the barns and the log house that had been there for three generations would go up in smoke.

NEW LISTING

Renovating bathrooms is commonly at the top of home improvement to-do lists. Though some rooms around the house may remain timeless, bathrooms, like kitchens, show their age (and era) much more easily, which could be why homeowners are always on the lookout for new ideas. Although many people may dream about creating a spa-type oasis in their homes, not everyone is lucky enough to have a large bathroom, much less a large budget for a full-scale renovation. Small bathrooms are common, particularly in older homes, but they needn’t force homeowners to compromise on style when renovating. Small bathrooms may be a half-bath on a main home level or even a full bath, depending on the home. By thinking creatively, homeowners can maximize their spaces and redo bathrooms in ways that bring out their best assets. * When space is at a premium, it’s best to look for fixtures and items that fit

with the scale of the bathroom. Although you may want a large vanity and cabinet in which to hide all of your toiletries, this simply may not be practical -- taking up most of the bathroom real estate. Instead, look for elegant pedestal sinks that have a much smaller profile. They’ll also help you control the clutter in the bathroom because there won’t be anywhere to hide it. * Use optical illusions to make the bathroom appear more roomy. For example, lay tile diagonally to create the impression of space. A large mirror will reflect the room back and make it appear much larger than it really is. * Select lighter hues in paint colors and accessories. Dark paints and fixtures could make the room feel cramped. Dark colors are generally used to make spaces feel more cozy. In a small bathroom, it may make the space feel claustrophobic. Instead, think light and bright and the room will instantly feel more airy. * Minimize wall hangings and keep fixtures smaller. Filling the walls with knickknacks may contribute to clutter and make the space appear closed in. Use decorative items sparingly.

A frameless shower can take up less space in a small bathroom. * If possible, store towels in a closet outside of the bathroom. This way you won’t have to devote space inside the bathroom to a closet, leaving more room for other things. * While some people like the thought of a separate bath and shower, in smaller bathrooms this may not be

possible. Instead, look for a combined shower and bath, or select a walk-in shower with a much smaller profile. * Windows are often welcome in bathrooms because of the ventilation they provide, but they could be a hindrance in smaller bathrooms because they take up prime wall space. Cover a window in a shower stall to free up space. Just be sure to install a venting fan to reduce moisture in the bathroom. * Maximize wall space if you need storage. Find cabinets that will fit beneath windows or be able to fit in thin areas between sinks and toilets. Over the toilet is prime area for cabinetry. * Consider a frameless shower. This is a partitioned area of the bathroom that’s set aside for the shower and is typically only cordoned off by a thin wall or piece of glass. Or a shower with no walls at all is the ultimate in spacesaving. The entire bathroom floor is decked out in tile, and a portion is sloped toward a shower drain. * Think about installing a skylight if you prefer natural light, but there is no room for a traditional window. Thinking creatively can help turn a cramped bathroom into a space-saving and welldesigned room homeowners desire.

(MS) -- Before the holidays bring family celebrations and visiting friends to your home, give your home a new look and improve its comfort level. Check out the suggestions below, make your project list, and then go to Woodcraft for the tools and accessories to get the job done. “Put safety first,” cautions Scott Phillips, host of The American Woodshop. “Before you begin your first project, make sure you have eye, ear and breathing protection available and then follow the manufacturer’s directions for all the tools and products you use. Have a first-aid kit and a phone handy, and enlist help for the heavy-duty work.” Entrance, Windows & Floors -- Give your entrance an easy update with a new door or add color and new hardware to your existing one. Install new windows that are attractive, reduce heating and cooling costs, and are easy to maintain. And consider installing a hardwood floor in at least one of your rooms -possibly the entryway and/or the living/family room. Kitchen & Dining Areas -- Apply stain or color to your kitchen cabinets and replace hinges and pulls or knobs to brighten your “home cafe.” If your cabinets have seen better days, install new ones -- either store-bought or ones you build.

CHEO patients get Olympic visit during Heroes Tour Brier Dodge brier.dodge@metroland.com

EMC news - It was a special visit for patients at CHEO as the Olympic Heroes Tour arrived at the hospital on Sept. 19. The Olympic Heroes Tour was held in Ottawa and Toronto, and brought Canadian Olympians and Paralympians to schools and CHEO to meet with children. Several medalists, including open water swimmer Richard Weinberger and Paralympic swimmer Summer Mortimer, brought their medals for the youths to try on. There was a lot of energy when athletes entered a room, and Olympians and officials packed around patients who were eager to meet the athletes they cheered during the summer. The tour was set to conclude in Toronto with a parade through the downtown core on Sept. 21, with the athletes taking the train from Ottawa after Sept. 19 visits. Selena Close, 11, from Stittsville, watched many of the athletes in the room all summer. “It was fun to get to learn things about them and all the things they had to go through,” she said. Selena recently had surgery on her foot because of a condition she was born with, tarsal coalition, meaning two of the bones rub against each other.

Meeting the Olympians was a good consolation for missing the first day of tryouts for her competitive basketball team in Goulbourn, but she hopes to be back playing in December to finish the season. The Grade 6 student at Holy Spirit Elementary School also plays soccer and runs track, and said she would love to be an Olympian herself one day. It was one of the first public visits back in Ottawa for Westboro’s Michael Tayler, a kayaker who attended Nepean High School and now Carleton University. “It’s such a cool experience, and it’s something I was really looking forward to,” Tayler said of being able to meet with the children. “It’s great to be able to share my story and hopefully improve some lives.” He also spoke to an excited crowd at St. Peter Catholic High School in Orléans earlier in the day as a part of the tour. For Jake Periard, a student at Farley Mowat Public School in Nepean, in CHEO for an eye infection, the experience was “awesome.” He was enthralled by Paralympic boccia player Marco Dispaltro’s equipment as they plotted where to find a quiet hallway to share a quick demonstration. “Marco was very cool,” he said. “I had to stay in bed all BRIER DODGE/METROLAND day yesterday. Today was the Stittsville’s Selena Close, 11, a student at Holy Spirit Elementary School, got to try on the four medals that Paralympic funnest day of my life.” swimmer Summer Mortimer won at the Games at CHEO on Sept. 19.

New chemical to be tested against ash beetles Laura Mueller laura.mueller@metroland.com

EMC news - An experimental chemical insecticide and a different way to process infected ash wood are two new ways the city is fighting the emerald ash borer. Two dozen Ottawa trees will be injected with a new insecticide called Confidor over the next couple of weeks, making the city only the second Canadian municipality to try the treatment against the beetles, which burrow under ash trees’ bark, slowly killing them. Its recent Health Canada approval means it isn’t even available for sale yet, so Ottawa is getting the insecticide for free from the company as it assesses Confidor’s effectiveness and impact. That announcement came with news that the beetles have spread farther across the city. New locations identified this year include: Barrhaven, Kanata North, Fitzroy Harbour, Stittsville, Richmond, Manotick, Metcalfe, Vernon, Vars and Navan. Environment committee chairwoman Coun. Maria McRae said it is “pretty frightening” how quickly the emerald ash borer is spreading across Ottawa. The beetle was first identified here in 2008. “It’s really quite a tragedy to see the number of trees lost,” said Mayor Jim Watson, adding he doesn’t want to see Ottawa lose its reputation as a green city. The city has already injected 2,309 trees with an insecticide called Tree Azin, including 262 new trees as part of $1 million in extra EAB funding approved by city council in July. The city expects to have 4,000 to 5,000 trees on a twoyear inoculation cycle by the end of 2013. Some trees can’t be saved by Tree Azin insecticide injections at a cost of $200 to $400 per tree, so the city has a strategy to plant a variety of species to replace them. The city will have planted just shy of 4,000 new trees in 2012 by this fall: 1,267 trees were planted along streets and in parks this spring, and another 2,700 will be planted this fall thanks to the rest of that $1 million in extra funding. Many of those trees will be larger 50 millimetre diameter trees, which residents have said they’re rather see than the

LAURA MUELLER/METROLAND

Environment committee chairwoman Coun. Maria McRae and Mayor Jim Watson plant a new tree in a yard on Southmore Drive East on Sept. 24 after giving an update on the city’s emerald ash borer strategy. 25 millimetre diameter trees the city has been planting. The city will send a notice to residents on streets where planting will occur; if the tree is a city tree on private property, that property owner will be a second notice before the city comes to plant the new tree. In the future, McRae hinted that the city would be open to adding a new tool into its arsenal: biological pests. Wasps are being used to fight the emerald ash borer in Minnesota, and Ottawa’s forester is watching to see if it’s something worth talking about for this city. NO MORE ASH AT TRAIL ROAD

Infested ash wood will no longer be shipped or stored at the city’s Trail Road landfill site. Ottawa Cedar Lumber, a company located just east of Ottawa, successfully bid to

sort of process the city’s ash wood. The Canadian Food Inspection Agency also signed off on the bid. According to the city, the family company at 2188 Dunning Rd. in Cumberland operates a sawmill and has been producing rough-cut wood and large volumes of wood chips for the past eight years. Owner Luc Laplante said he plans to turn much of the usable wood into lumber for flooring or furniture, but the city has discussed buying back some of the wood at a reduced rate to be used in the future light rail stations. The city also expects the tipping cost fees of 30 per cent to drop. Tree removal was set to resume on Sept. 24. Homeowners on streets where infected ash trees will be cut down will receive a notice one week in advance.

Is the NDP ready to govern? Four Quebec university students who rode the Orange Wave into Parliament offer a glimpse into what tomorrow’s politics may be Derek Dunn

derek.dunn@metroland.com

EMC news - It was pretty much what you’d expect to find when a few university educated 20-somethings get together at a bar: beer jokes and Seinfeld references mixed with anxiety over future job prospects; then someone tosses in feminist rights, while another laments bus service. Typically young people are preoccupied with identity is-

sues and dismiss traditional political discourse as hyper partisan. Except that these young people aren’t wallowing in self-alienation. And they aren’t bummed about antics on the Hill. And, yes, they even have jobs. Some of the most important jobs in the country. Four NDP members of parliament gathered with party faithful at the Kanata D’Arcy McGee’s on Sept. 17.

R0011634887

Status of Women critic Niki Ashton, Copyright and Digital Issues critic Charmaine Borg, Sports and PostSecondary Education critic Matthew Dube, and Foreign Affairs critic Eve Peclet garnered a crowd of about 50, mostly baby boomers but interspersed with a few younger faces. At one time in federal politics a gathering of New Democrats in the solid-conservative riding of Carleton-Mississippi

Kanata Montessori School’s

North Campus

Mills would be largely inconsequential. But not only has the party reached official opposition status, the NDP have rivalled the Conservatives for months now in many national polls. Members have even begun to speak with some confidence of working to form the next government. But to become the first socialist-background party to govern Canada, Thomas Mulcair and the NDP have to get by the Tory attack machine that has gobbled up and spit out more than one opposition leader over the last few years. Dube, after the formal part

Quebec – an “opportunist,” he said. The next volley in their attempt to define Mulcair emerged on the eve of the House’s fall session start. Prime Minister Stephen Harper and other Conservatives accused Mulcair of favouring a carbon tax, making him another tax-and-spend socialist. Mulcair responded by calling the Conservatives “liars.” Whether increasing the rhetoric and name-calling is part of the NDP’s strategy is unclear. But Dube, like Mulcair, is well trained in brass-knuckled Quebec politics. He remained stone-faced at the suggestion that Harper and other grey hairs across the House are tough opponents.

of the meeting that involved the MPs discussing “files” under their responsibility and answering questions from the crowd, said the party has learned from Liberal mistakes. “We don’t think Canadians are stupid,” he said. “And we don’t see ourselves the (automatic) government in waiting.” Like the Harper Conservatives, the NDP are a principled, ideologically-driven party, unlike the one-time pragmatic Liberals that have obtained a reputation as the party that seeks power at any costs. Dube said on that front, the blue attack machine will have to find a new strategy. They tried and failed to brand Mulcair – at one time the lone NDPer elected in

On the issues

The four MPs discussed portfolio-related issues. Privacy online, abortion, violence against Aboriginal women, prison expansion plans, clean water, and public transportation were among those mentioned. Of course, there were also sweeping partisan comments: Conservatives champion a handful of core supporters’ issues while ignoring those that, if understood and addressed wisely, could benefit all Canadians; and that the government replaced foreign affairs (and humanitarian causes) with international trade and hawkish diplomacy.

Status of Women critic Niki Ashton, left, Copyright and Digital Issues critic Charmaine Borg, Sports and Post-Secondary Education critic Matthew Dube, and Foreign Affairs critic Eve Peclet met recently with NDP supporters at a Kanata pub.

â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re going to take our Canada backâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; â&#x20AC;&#x153;You have all these torn apart nations,â&#x20AC;? Peclet said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re, like, â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;We need Canada. We need you.â&#x20AC;&#x2122; And Canada doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t care. They forget who Canada was.â&#x20AC;? On the dismantling of Nortel and the resources boom out west, she said, â&#x20AC;&#x153;We have a platform for Alberta and Saskatchewan. But we wonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t have (our) own personal beliefs take over national interests.â&#x20AC;? All four explained that the NDP isnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t anti-business. It is pro small and medium sized business because those are where many tax dollars come

to pay for needed social programs. They also said solving social issues like poverty will reduce the overall costs on every citizen. Continuing to provide massive tax breaks to large corporations while allowing social problems to fester is not the way to help taxpayers, they said. Ashton, who lost to Mulcair in the contest to replace Jack Layton, spoke passionately against cuts to womenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s organizations and faltering pay equity. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Many women of our generation are saying we canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t afford to keep going backwards,â&#x20AC;? she said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re going to take our Canada back.â&#x20AC;?

On closed-doors trade negotiations with the EU â&#x20AC;&#x201C; which could lead to higher drug costs â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Borg was dismayed over the governmentâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s unwillingness to disclose information. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s like the 400-page budget bill,â&#x20AC;? she said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We cannot know the impact on us.â&#x20AC;? Asked how to turn the riding orange, Borg said it comes down to knocking on doors and holding roundtable dis/ cussions. People appreciate it when politicians really listen. â&#x20AC;&#x153;And remember that we are the viable alternative right now,â&#x20AC;? she said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We are polling at the same level, and we can form the next government.â&#x20AC;?

Ryan’s Well brings clean water and sanitation to schools in Ghana Ryan’s Well Foundation

EMC news - In the Ashanti region of Ghana, West Africa, three schools are humming with anticipation this year. It’s not new computers that have them excited; not a new gym or sports equipment. These students are getting new school latrines and a brand new water well. The Ryan’s Well Foundation announced its fourth-annual School Challenge Project, which was created for students and teachers with a passion to run, bike, bake, compete, draw,

World Water Day on March 22, 2013, nearly 2,000 students and teachers in Ghana, as well as their parents and nearby communities, will be facing a much brighter and healthier future. Since 2009, students from 70 schools around the world have raised more than $77,000 for rainwater harvesting tanks in Kenya, new wells and latrines in Uganda and Togo, plus clean water taps, education for teachers, and hygiene training. To join the School Challenge, visit ryanswell.ca/inthe-classroom.aspx.

to build a well, latrines and hand-washing stations at three schools in Ghana. The project also sponsors a school-to-school competition designed to teach health and hygiene, through classroom activities and traditional music, drama and dance. While students are fundraising, pictures and reports directly from Ghana will help them track the construction progress and follow the hygiene competition, and they’ll see immediately the positive impact they’re making. By the time the project wraps up on

sing, sell, collect, dress up, dress down – wherever their imagination takes them – to make a difference in the world. Through the School Challenge, kids learn about the global water crisis and the fact that not everyone has a tap flowing with clean water. And just like Ryan Hreljac found out in Grade 1, they learn that they can help. This year, they’ll be helping fellow students halfway around the world who lack life’s most basic necessity. Teachers and students are invited to join the School Challenge and help raise $37,000

EMC events - The Ontario Straw Bale Building Coalition, a group that fosters information about building with straw bale, is hosting a provincewide tour of straw bale buildings on Sept. 30. Straw bale building has grown from complete obscurity to public prominence in the past decade. Captivated with the idea of strong, durable, super-insulated and beautiful homes that cost no more than custom conventional construc8tion and which offer remarkable environmental benefits, over 200 homeowners across the province have chosen to build with bales. This tour is the perfect opportunity to step right inside some straw bale buildings, see what they are like, and get honest feedback from the owners about all aspects of their buildings.

Kanata Lakes siblings dominate in cycling circuit Sister breaks female, male peewee records, brother wins U-17 national race Jessica Cunha

jessica.cunha@metroland.com

EMC sports - A new Byway has taken to the bicycle. Nia Byway, 12, broke both the female and male all-time peewee records at the Ottawa Bicycle Club open time trial series last month. Nia eclipsed the female record, which was 25:39, set by Julie Peltz in 1993, by one minute, and she destroyed the male record of 25:23, set by Simon Cousineau in 1996, by 44 seconds. The Grade 7 student at Morgan’s Grant French public elementary school only began competing this year. “My dad kept saying I’d be a good cyclist,” said Nia, who used to play competitive soccer until this year. “I like the competition and just knowing…that it’s just all me. I’m the one putting in all the effort.” Nia said she’s been to the Ottawa Time Trial on four occasions trying to beat Julie’s record. “Over the summer we’ve been training quite a bit,” she said. “I felt good about breaking the record.” Nia also improved her personal best by two minutes with a time of 24:39 for the 15-kilometre track. “That night she went out, she was just on fire,” said her father John.

Connor Byway, 15, won the under-17 Omnium Canadian National Track Championships in Moncton, N.B., earlier this month. Nia also placed second in a road race that took place in Ancaster, Ont. earlier this month, even after a crash sent her to the back of the pack. “I got back up as soon as I could,” she said. “They were already quite far away…but I just kept going.” Although she was one of the last to finish, her accumulated points put her in second place. SIBLING COMPETITION

Nia’s brother, Connor, won the under-17 Omnium Cana-

dian National Track Championships in Moncton, N.B., which took place earlier this month. He placed first in the 10kilometre points race and 500-metre time trial, placed second in the two-kilometre pursuit race and sixth in the seven- kilometre scratch race. “I didn’t know what I was expecting,” said Connor, 15, of the competition he faced. “What I was really surprised about was the pursuit race.” Both Nia and Connor were set to race the Cycle Cross, a

mix of mountain biking and road racing in Calabogie on Sunday, Sept. 23. “It’s really nice to have that…to be able to go out and ride as a family, that’s really special,” said John about his two children, adding there’s some friendly competition between the siblings. “I think it’s great.”

EMC sports - A 17-yearold Bridlewood triathlete is the fourth recipient of the Paul van Steen Sports Achievement Award. Samantha Klus was presented with the award, along with a $250 cheque from the Bridlewood Community Association (BCA) during its annual general meeting on Tuesday, Sept. 18. “She’s very dedicated. She’s very hard working,” said BCA president Margaret Kellaway. “She gives back to her community and she’s also an excellent example for all Bridlewood residents. “She’s already accomplished so much and the sky’s the limit for where she’s going to go.” Klus is one of three girls recently named to the national junior triathlon team at the International Triathlon Union World Championship in Auckland, New Zealand from Oct. 18 to 22. She earned a spot on the

team after placing fourth overall, but first among Ontario athletes, ages 16 to 19, in the junior elite provincial championship on Aug. 4 in Ottawa. “Sam is probably one of the strongest female athletes that I’ve ever coached,” said Greg Kealey, head coach of the Bytown Storm, which Klus joined five years ago. “She’s kind of coming into her own – she’s very diligent, trains hard and is very focused. “I thought she had the potential to make the world’s team.” A triathlon race starts with a 1.5-kilometre swim, followed by a 40-kilometre cycle and a 10-kilometre run. Kealey said Klus is a dominant cyclist, an ability that will help her compete on the hilly course of New Zealand. Klus is one of the few 17year-olds to make the worlds, said Kealey – most of her competition is either 18 or 19. Klus said she was “super excited” when she learned she landed a spot on the national junior team. “I’m very nervous,” said Klus. “I definitely want to see where it takes me and hopefully one day be in the Olympics – that’s like the main goal.”

Apart from her athletic achievements, Klus also volunteers her time helping to organize local races such as the Dunrobin Kids of Steel Race held in West Carleton earlier this year, and also helped shovel snow off community rinks in Bridlewood last winter. BYTOWN STORM

Five years ago, Klus was playing competitive soccer when her coach suggested she might want to train as a triathlete. Klus joined the Bytown Storm, a triathlon team that trains in various locations

across the city including the Kanata YMCA/YWCA and the University of Ottawa Regional Training Centre. “I gave triathlon a try with my mountain bike and I loved it,” said Klus. “Three different sports means you’re not training for the same thing everyday. There’s so many things you can train for.” Every race and course is different, she added. “It’s just variety I guess.” But training for the triathlon requires a serious time commitment. The young athlete’s day starts at 5 a.m., when Klus wakes up and heads to the pool at the University of Ottawa or Carleton University to swim for 90 minutes.

The Myers Riders rode off as the winners with a 10-8 victory over the Myers Riders at Bob Barr field on Wednesday, Sept. 19. The Knights gave away points, first allowing the Riders a touchdown on a kickoff return on the first play of the game. Then Kanata tried a sweep near their own end zone which resulted in a safety. Kanata’s defence kept them in the game with batted balls downed by Braydon Campeau and Bryce Marshall. Sebas-

The tykes shut the Brockville Buccaneers out 25-0 on Sunday. On both sides of the ball, Kanata was firing on all cylinders. Kaseem Ferdinand led the defence with five solo tackles and several assists. Evan Wakeman picked up two fumble recoveries and Jack McCrady and Joe Brennan racked up over a half a dozen tackles each. Darius Reid and Denny Ferdinand also kept the defences momentum going with one sack each. On the offence, an elusive running attack led by Devaughn Blackwood, with 108 yards and two touchdowns along with the power running game of Aaron Chase and Nicholas Allarie was the key to the offence’s running game. Stephan duPlooy and Redford Brown each added a rushing touchdown thanks to the great blocking by Trevor Schwab, Ethan McFadden and A.J. Richmond. The Knights head into their bye week, but will be preparing for their previously rained-out game with Bel-Air Copeland Lions on Wednesday Oct. 3 at Bob Barr football field.

tian Vienneau, Justin Malloy, Shabach Kerr and Tyrese Brown had the majority of the tackles. The Knights’ offence didn’t move the ball with the exception of a short field touchdown. The determination to reverse a stagnant offence in previous games, was easily made up for in a 28-6 win over the Brockville Buccaneers on Sunday, Sept. 23. Both quarterbacks, Jared Valentino and Jerrad Norcott, were hot totalling 75 passing yards on four passes of which Tony Zeidan caught two. Norcott scored on two quarterback sneaks while Connor Ogilvie ran for 137 yards and punched in two touchdowns. Not to be out done, injured running back David Wardowski accumulated 90 yards on just two carries. Kicker Ethan Chase continued to put the Bucs deep in their zone and the Knights defence took advantage by not allowing Brockville to pass the halfway line until the last play of the game. Props goes out to outstanding defensive plays by Justin Malloy, Fiore Clark, Corey Bolivar and Sebastian Vienneau. A combined 14 tackles and two fumble recoveries were shared by Jarod Wakeman and Shabach Kerr. The Knights were scheduled to next play Bel-Air at home, on Wednesday, Sept. 26, after the Kourier-Standard went to press.

SERVING KANATA NORTH

City Councillor, Kanata North ASSET MANAGEMENT REPORT Last week a report on the Cityâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s assets was tabled and forwarded to the October 2nd meeting of the Finance and Economic Development Committee. The report looks at the state of roads, bridges, culverts, sidewalks, lighting, buildings (including recreation facilities), playing fields, playground equipment, libraries, water and sewer pipes, sewage treatment plant, water filtration plants, vehicles etc. Everything that needs ongoing maintenance and/or replacement is included. The value of these assets is $32 Billion (like managing 1/3 of all homes in Ottawa) so looking after them is important. Ottawa has 5,800 km of roads (like a two-lane road from Halifax to Vancouver), 8,000 km of underground pipes (could stretch them from Ottawa to Istanbul, Turkey), 3 treatment plants and 13 million sq ft of building space (almost 6 Empire State Buildings).

Moms asked to join breastfeeding contest

R0011646133

EMC events - Mothers and babies will gather at sites across Ottawa and around the world for a friendly competition to see who can set the record for the most babiesâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; breastfeeding at one time, at 11 a.m. on Saturday, September 29. Mothers are asked to register their event and be counted. The Quintessence Breastfeeding Challenge began in 2001 as part of World Breastfeeding Week, an international celebration of breastfeeding. The event promotes the importance of breastfeeding and of supporting breastfeeding mothers and their families. Breastfeeding has many well-documented health benefits for both mothers and babies. Ottawa Public Health (OPH), the World Health Organization, Health Canada, and the Canadian Paediatric Society all recommend exclusive breastfeeding from birth to six months of age, with continued breastfeeding to two years and beyond. As Ottawa strives to be a city where mothers can feel comfortable and free of judgment to breastfeed when and where they choose, OPH encourages families to join in this celebration of breastfeeding. You can participate and be

counted in the challenge by attending one of the registered sites, or by hosting your own event. Information on the Breastfeeding Challenge site locations and how to register your own site can be found at ottawa.ca/health. OPH also invites mothers to share that they breastfed on Sept. 29, by tweeting @ ottawahealth with the hashtag #ibreastfeed, or by posting on OPHâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Breastfeeding Challenge event wall at facebook. com/ottawahealth.

There is a lot of information on the City website about how to use your green bin without having food stick to the bins or problems with insects. For example, putting a bit of crumbled newspaper in the bottom will stop the contents from freezing to the bottom. Spraying the inside with cooking oil spray also helps. I use cereal and cracker boxes as they have lids that close. We donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t put our green bin out every week so I freeze them until garbage day â&#x20AC;&#x201C; something you can do if you have freezer space. With all the things I can recycle, I only have a bag of waste every 3-4 weeks. Families that have a special need (e.g. diapers) can arrange for pick up of those items in the interim week by registering at ottawa.ca or calling 311. Special toxic waste depots and locations to take electronic waste are also on ottawa.ca. Your pickup date may change, so information will be provided by letter to you if your pickup day is changing. You can find more information by using Waste Explorer on the Cityâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s website â&#x20AC;&#x201C; go to the Garbage and Recycling tab. Letâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s all do what we can to make these changes go as smoothly as possible. RECREATION CENTRE CONSTRUCTION The Richcraft Recreation Complex - Kanata is now well under construction, with closing of the building roof scheduled for October 10th. The expected completion of the entire site by the contractor is September 2013. The opening is scheduled for November 2013, after the City has completed the interior requirements. Fundraising for the community requirements is well underway and you will soon be obtaining information on how you can contribute. One item is a time capsule area, where members of the public can, for a small, tax receiptable donation, obtain a vial, put family and other memorabilia in it, and place it in a cavity in the floor to be opened in 50 years. Your children (and many of you) could be present then for the opening and get your capsule back. Can you imagine what would have been placed in one 50 years ago! INFORMATION ITEMS WINTER MAINTENANCE TRAINING on local streets has started, so if you see ploughs out along the streets & pathways it is for training on routes so that everyone is ready for the first snowfall.

WASTE & RECYCLING CHANGES Councillor McRae, Chair of the Environment Committee, was at the Briarbrook/Morganâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Grant Community meeting last week to discuss the changes to pick-up of waste that starts on October 29th. At that time, the new contracts will begin with waste to be picked up every two weeks. Blue and black boxes will be collected on alternate weeks and green bins every week. The City has new dual trucks for the areas served by City staff, which enables us to reduce the number of trucks on the road by 30. Although you will be able to put out the same number of items for waste pickup (presently 3 items per week, so with collection every 2 weeks, it will be 6), I challenge you to recycle more.

PEDESTRIAN SAFETY â&#x20AC;&#x201C; A coronerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s report has made a number of recommendations to increase pedestrian safety. These are being reviewed for inclusion within the review of the Cityâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Pedestrian Plan. INTERNATIONAL DAY OF THE GIRL CHILD is on October 11. Please send me your suggestions for that day & let me know of activities youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve planned.

It took the band seven months to put together their first full-length album, said Haneman. “There were many transformations,” said Allard, who was responsible for writing the lyrics for the eight original songs on Strings Untied. “Doing this the right way, doing a CD the right way, is a lot of work.” Go Long also covers three tracks on the album – Whatever You Like by T.I., Green Grass by Tom Waits, and Black Velvet by Alannah Myles. The group wasn’t planning on creating a full-length disc but pressure from their fan base convinced them it was worth it, said Haneman. “We weren’t ready to for a long time,” he said, adding the band is hoping to tour the country and is planning on playing in Florida. “It’s going to be a great experience.” “We want the band to be bigger than just a local band,” said Allard, adding the CD has been mastered for the radio.

The group released a video for its first single, Hurricane, which has more than 750 views on YouTube. The song is Allard’s favourite original composition from the album. “I think it was the fastest song I’ve written lyrically,” she said. The entire thing came together in about five minutes at 2 a.m. “It’s the only one I wrote fully in the middle of the night,” she said, adding she usually writes in chunks and blocks. “It’s good to see yourself evolve writing.” “If they were a breeze to write, they’re going to be a breeze to play,” said Haneman, whose favourite tune is Bass in My Veins for its musical texture. “It was the first song that Danielle and I collectively wrote together,” he said, add0927.R0011641103

This doesn’t happen very often,” he said. “It was just a very inspirational time.” Crisafi’s favourite song is the last track on the album, The Long Way. “I think that it’s the kind of song that corresponds to my general state of mind,” he said. “It’s that moment where you’re unsure what’s going to happen.” For more information, visit the band’s website at www.golong.info, search Go Long (!) on Facebook or connect with them on Twitter @GoLongMusic.

Physicist-turned-artist enjoys life in Kanata Lakes Blair Edwards

blair.edwards@metroland.com

EMC entertainment - When the high-tech bubble burst in 2001, it came as a natural career crossroad for France Tremblay. For nearly a decade, the Kanata Lakes woman had worked as a scientist, first studying quantum mechanics at the prestigious Cavendish Laboratory at the University of Cambridge in England, then later developing radar systems for the Department of Defence. From 1996 to 2001, Tremblay managed teams of scientists developing the next generation of telecommunication technology at Nortel Networks. But always in the back of her mind, she carried with her the dream of becoming a fulltime artist, a seismic career switch for a woman who had spent the past 20 years developing impressive academic and professional credentials in the fields of physics and telecommunications. The change in careers came a little earlier than originally planned with the fall of Nortel. “I’m now a full-time artist with science as a hobby,” said

Sports Day in Canada is back for its third year on September 29, 2012. Sports Day in Canada is a national celebration of sport, from grass roots to high-performance, in communities across the country. In the week leading up to, and including, September 29, local sports organizations, communities and schools across Ottawa are encouraged to open their doors to celebrate sport and physical activity at the local level by hosting try-it days, competitions, meet-and-greets, tournaments or spectator events. BLAIR EDWARDS/METROLAND

France Tremblay produces nearly 10 paintings a year. The Kanata Lakes painter is the 2008 Grand Prize Purchase Award winner for her piece Southeast View from Zabriskie Point. Tremblay. Science was Tremblay’s first passion in life. “I loved it since I was a kid,” she said. Tremblay, who grew up in Quebec City, was interested in studying the physical world, with math simply providing the paintbrush to bring her observations to life. “The maths are an essential tool to describe the world we live in,” she said. Tremblay earned a bach-

elor’s degree in physics at Lavalle University, in Quebec City, a master’s degree in physics at the University of Toronto and finally a PhD degree in physics at Cambridge. “Physics is the best way to do a lot of maths while linking it to the physical world, so I found that exciting,” said Tremblay. “Physics means you study something that’s real.” See REALISM, page 43

Kanata Kourier-Standard EMC - Thursday, September 27, 2012 41

Ways to lower car insurance rates at any age Drivers should look for more savings regardless of driver profile. Auto insurance is a major expense in a household budget. While it’s mandatory to have insurance, overpaying is not necessary. There are simple ways of getting a more affordable auto insurance rate, regardless of age or driving experience. NEW DRIVERS Use of a ‘good student discount’ is one way to save on insurance for a young driver. Many insurance companies offer a discount for students who carry a minimum required grade average. Another way to save is by taking a driver education course from an approved school; to learn the rules of the

road. Be sure to inquire about these options, as they may not always be advertised. DRIVERS OVER 25 There may have been some improvement in yearly premiums for drivers with some driving experience. Don’t forget to also ask about further discounts. These may include: installing a security system, driving an eco-friendly car, or installing safety features such as winter tires. If recently married, combine policies with your spouse and take advantage of bulk discounting by having more than one car insured with the company. EXPERIENCED DRIVERS An experienced driver with a good driving record may be eligible for better insurance rates; the key is to find the insurance company that will offer the lowest rate. Shopping around for car insurance is the easiest way to find a better way. Other ways

to save include changing your deductible – perhaps carrying a higher deductible; or, combining home and auto insurance policies with the same insurance company. DRIVERS OVER 55 YEARS Mature drivers over 55 years old may qualify for some of the best rates available. Some insurance companies across Canada specialize in getting the best rates for mature drivers. There are also retirement benefits to keep in mind: no commute distance may mean a lower rate. Make sure the insurance company changes the commuting status to pleasure use. MORE TIPS Remember to review your policy frequently. Tickets come off your driving record in three years from the date that you are convicted and accidents come off in six years. If a ticket or accident has come off your driving record,

check with your insurance company to make sure you’re not still paying for that ticket or accident. If you drive an older car, you may want to remove the collision coverage if you feel that it’s not worth the extra yearly cost to compensate you for your vehicle value. This will reduce your insurance premium. Many car insurance companies may actually offer a lower rate to drivers who pay their premium in full on renewal than to those who choose to pay in installments. Monthly payments often come with fees that are charged on each installment. Paying the whole thing up front is a quick and simple way to pay less. No matter how old you are, it is always a good idea to shop around for a better rate. Quoting sites like ComparaSave.com help drivers find the lowest insurance rate available within their network of over 30 insurance companies.

France Tremblay takes reference photos of sand dune patterns in Death Valley National Park, California, one of the hottest spots on earth.

Realism requires a lot of field work During her off time while studying in England, Tremblay toured art museums throughout Europe, and developed a second passion in life. “I was having a natural interest in art,” Tremblay said. The fledgling artist visited many of the great museums in France, such as the Louvre and the Musée d’Orsay, as well as some of the smaller venues devoted to only one artist, such as Picasso and Rodin. “They’re still jewels,” she said. Those tours allowed Tremblay to begin learning the tools she would need to prepare for a career in art. “A seed was planted in my heart in Europe,” she said. “I had a decade to prepare.” When she started working as a scientist, Tremblay used her off hours to learn the fundamentals of painting, such as drawing techniques and the proper way to mix paint. “This is a life-long learning curve,” Tremblay said. “You need to have a lot of tools in your toolbox.” Since 2002, Tremblay has become a full-time artist and part-time scientist – she works as a professor in the electrical engineering department at the University of Ottawa. She has entered high-profile exhibitions in the United States, including the Paint the Parks Top 11 in 2007, 2011 and 2012 as well as The Art of Conservation, an international annual event presented at various prestigious museums and the Society of Animal Artists exhibition from 2010-12. She won the grand prize in the Paint the Park Top 100 in 2008 and was selected a finalist in the landscapes category and wildlife art category of the Artist’s Magazine Annual Art Competition, which draws entries from nearly 15,000 artists every year. Every year, Tremblay opens her home to the public, participating in the annual Kanata Artists Studio Tour. Tremblay paints landscapes, still life and wildlife pieces using acrylic paint as well as drawing using coloured pencils, graphite and carbon. She lists some of her influences as Canadian wildlife artist Robert Bateman, as well as painters Patricia Pepin and John Banovich. In 2002, Tremblay founded an art school that she runs out

Singer wide Awake for launch of second album Brant Pethick gets radio play with latest single Brier Dodge

brier.dodge@metroland.com

EMC news - For singersongwriter Brant Pethick, technology was an important tool when the full-time hightech worker was trying to record an album. The Kanata businessman and Orléans resident had to whip out his Blackberry many times to quickly record a melody or lyrics he thought of, saving the material for a later recording session. Pethick grew up in Beacon Hill and now lives in Springridge, but commutes daily to Kanata. “I’ve been driving to Kanata for about seven years,” said Pethick, who works for Telus. “I like the job and although the commute is very long and challenging some days, I use this time to be creative musically. I listen to demos I produced the night before and I get creative ideas musically and lyrically. “It makes the commute more efficient. It also allows me to catch up on new music. It’s a very creative musical commute.” The commute seems like nothing when compared to the endless roadtrips he made to

Kitchener, Ont., in order to record the album with producer Andrew Horrocks over the course of a year. “The cool thing is you get away from life and you’re just immersed in music,” he said of his trips south to focus on the album. Horrocks is known as a gospel producer, but Pethick said he wouldn’t label his album as Christian rock, though it has received airtime on radio station CHRI. “It’s pop-rock,” he said. “Lyrically it’s positive messaging so the Christian community has liked it. It has some spiritual elements to it.” He said he fits into the same

genre as Chris Tomlin, Simple Plan and the Sidewalk Prophets. The album is titled Awake because the lyrics were written to wake up listeners to spirituality, life and encourage them to seize the day, Pethick said. “It’s allowed me to express my emotions and my life experiences through music,” he said. He got his start as a drummer and backup singer for Ottawa band On the Edge when he was in his late 20s. He’s been writing music ever since, and in 2007 he released his first solo album, A New Day. Over the last five years, he’s

played local shows and charity events he finds meaningful. He spent two years writing and one year recording Awake, which he quietly released in front of about 20 family members and friends at his home, with an official release party still to come.

It was different this time around, as Pethick self-produced his first album. “This time I focused on songwriting and singing, which are my strengths,” he said. So far, the single Only You has already been played on CHRI in Ottawa and he hopes

more radio stations will follow. “It’s the energy of the music and the emotion of the lyrics,” he said of why he chose it as his lead single. “It’s about believing in a relationship, investing in it.” Pethick will be performing on Nov. 3 at the Shenkman Arts Centre.

Pro-intensification group starts up in Ottawa Ottawa Urbanism wants voice in helping turn capital into world-class city Laura Mueller

laura.mueller@metroland.com

EMC news - A new pro-intensification group is looking to get away from community activism that opposes development and instead promote creating a vibrant, worldclass urban experience in the nation’s capital. Ottawa Urbanism officially formed on Sept. 19 with the election of an executive team and board of directors. Around 30 people came to the Bethel Field House in the Golden Triangle to hear about the initiative. “One of the most problematic things is the debate over planning is divisive,” said Felix Macias, secretary of Ottawa Urbanism and one of its founding members. “It doesn’t fit into the greater sense of what it means to live in the city.” The group grew out of an online discussion forum on skyscraperpage.com. In Feburary of 2012, Macias and other founding members began meeting at the James Street Pub to discuss forming the group. Executive members include newly-elected president Philip Ghosh, a Centretown lawyer; Tyler Saikaly, vice president of research and proposals; Thom McVeigh, vice president of development reviews; Lucia Harper, director of communications; and three members-at-large

of the board of directors: Peter Drake, Liam Mooney and Luke Schnurr. The group’s activities are still to be determined, but will rest on its vision statement: “Ottawa Urbanism strives for an Ottawa recognized for the richness and vibrancy of its urban experience, for its quality of life, its cutting-edge architecture, and design; a city where it’s easy and desirable to live an urban lifestyle.”

stipulates a minimum of quarterly meetings, but Ghosh said he hopes the group will meet monthly. The group has already discussed adopting a policy against accepting donations from developers in order to avoid a perception of working on their behalf. A few subcommittees are also in the works. To contact or join the group, email ottawaurbanism@gmail.com.

“Urbanism goes beyond the core,” Macias said. “It’s about connected communities.” Championing pedestrian and cycling issues, as well as transit-oriented development, is a citywide concern, Macias said. Even Ottawa’s rural villages, such as Manotick and Carp, contain a smaller example of urban experience and share similar concerns, Macias said. The group’s constitution

INTENSIFICATION FOCUS

Ghosh, a founding member and now president, said he hopes Ottawa Urbanism can shift the debate over development from a focus on height to a focus on the quality of design and how building can better integrate communities. “We want to be a voice for people who have a legitimate view that is not being adequately expressed.” Ghosh said he is familiar with other urbanist- and planning-focused groups in the city, including the Federation of Citizens’ Associations, and he hopes Ottawa Urbanism can find its own voice and work in conjunction with existing groups. “We will go where the membership wants us to go, but I’m hoping to focus on intensification,” Ghosh said. The group won’t just be focusing on downtown Ottawa.

KMHS to discuss common landscaping mistakes Kanata-March Horticultural Society

EMC news - As we prepare our lawns and gardens for winter, it’s a time to reflect upon what worked well and what did not. Perhaps there’s a plant that never really thrived where it was planted, or maybe you think you need to add a tree, shrub or garden to create some interest or fix a problem area. On Tuesday, Oct. 2, the Kanata-March Horticultural

Society welcomes Donna Warwick of Avant Gardeners who will present “Common Landscaping Mistakes Homeowners Make”, and how to avoid them. The meeting will be held from 7:30 to 9 p.m. at the Old Town Hall, 821 March Rd. (the entrance to the Old Town Hall is on Klondike Road across from the Shopper’s Drug Mart). There is a $5 fee for non-members. Our society members are

a workout for all ages

local gardeners from novice to expert in experience, who share a common love of plants and gardening. We feature guest speakers each month on a variety of topics, and help beautify the local community through the maintenance of the Molly Wilson Garden at the Old Town Hall. Visit our website at kanatahorticultural.com for a full listing of the 2012 program and come grow with us.

Ice skating is a low-impact activity that provides exceptional cardiovascular health benefits. Just like walking, running or swimming, ice skating can offer a great workout while being easy on the joints! Look no further than the City of Ottawa Recreational Skating School to get an introduction to skating. Or you can learn specialties such as figure skating, speed skating or power skating. Courses are offered at various times, every day of the week, for ages two years and up. If private lessons are more your style, these can be arranged too! Lesson plans are specially designed to accommodate the participant’s skill level. Call 613-580-2596 for information or register to learn, improve or master the ability to skate. All participants must wear CSA approved hockey helmets.

Want to practice your skating?

Use our convenient Public Skating search tool found on ottawa.ca to find the many public skating locations and times in your area! The Kanata-March Horticultural Society will hold a meeting on Oct. 2.

Skater safety is a top priority at the City of Ottawa and safety starts with a properly fitted helmet. Children aged 10 and under, as well as skaters of all ages at a beginner skill level, are required to wear a Canadian Standards Association (CSA) approved helmet while attending City of Ottawa indoor public skate sessions. Some tips for choosing a helmet: • Buy a helmet that fits now, not one to grow into. • Never buy a used helmet. • Make sure your helmet has been tested for safety (Helmet will have a CSA sticker inside) To learn more about our helmet safety requirements, visit ottawa.ca or call the Public Skating Information line at 613-580-2666. Remember to skate smart – all skaters, regardless of age, and skill levels are encouraged to wear a CSA approved helmet while skating. Skating is a great way to be active and enjoy our Ottawa winters!

KAC hosts special events in October Kanata Art Club

Kanata artist Moe Hussain uses oil and encaustics to create his paintings.

Moe Hussain

EMC events - The Kanata Art Club has three major events planned for October. Club members will be treated to an exciting demonstration of the finer points of water color painting by its specially invited guest Brenda Beattie of Constance Bay, at the club’s regular monthly meeting on Oct. 10. Beattie was born and raised in Banff National Park and is renowned in the Ottawa area for her beautiful and well executed paintings. Visit her website at brendabeattie.com to get a better appreciation of her art and style. These meetings are open to club members and run from 7 to 9 p.m. Members will have the opportunity to participate in a four-day workshop given by well-known Canadian watercolorist Hi-Sook Barker from Oct. 19 to 21. Barker paints a wide variety of images with florals appearing to be an ever-present theme with the Canadian winter landscape – the subject she loves the best. This event is being co-ordinated by Dorothy Hayter and runs from 9:30 a.m. to 4 p.m. each day. Dorothy can be

contacted at 613-592-6639 for members wishing to register for this workshop. There is a fee associated with this event. A series of full-day classes are being planned for October for the benefit of club members. This event is being co-ordinated by Josie Braden but the guest artist, dates and medium are not yet fully confirmed. These classes are held once a week for four to six weeks. Club members interested in this event can contact Josie at 613-599-4959. A small fee applies. In addition to these special events, club members have the opportunity to meet on a weekly basis on Thursdays to paint as a group. They bring their easels, colors, canvases or paper, brushes, etc. and paint from 10 a.m. on. All monthly meetings, classes, workshops and group paintings are held at the club’s meeting place at the Montessori School, 1030 Riddell Dr. in Kanata. Non-members wishing to join the club are asked to fill out the membership form on our newly created website kac1.ca or call Gail Brooker at 613-592-2904.

Half of public high schools fail to register sports teams Eddie Rwema

eddie.rwema@metroland.com

EMC news - Nearly 200 public high school students protested the loss of their extracurricular activities outside Premier Dalton McGuintyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s office in Alta Vista on Sept. 19. Eleven public high schools failed to sign up for regular season play in the National Capital Secondary School Athletic Association this year, after teachers withdrew from extracurricular activities such as supervising clubs or coaching sportsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; teams in protest of the Liberal governmentâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s legislation. The new legislation, Bill 115, freezes teachersâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; wages, bans strikes for two years and prevents them from banking sick days. Danielle Saunders-Gauthier, a Grade 11 Ridgemont High School student who has played basketball, volleyball, rugby and football for her school, organized the protest. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The message we are trying to send out is that the bill was really negative not just to the teachers but to students as well,â&#x20AC;? she said. Danielle took a basketball course this summer to prepare her to play in the fall NCSSAA season. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t have any idea that

by the time this (fall) comes around, there was going to be no sports team anymore,â&#x20AC;? said Danielle. Across the city, students have staged protests to express their outrage over Bill 115, said Danielle. â&#x20AC;&#x153;These programs are extremely important. It is where you get the best memories of high school,â&#x20AC;? said Danielle. According to numbers given by the public school board, nearly half of Ottawa high schools will have no extracurricular sports teams this fall. Gary Schreider, co-director of the NCSSAA, said the schools were unable to provide any volunteer coaches who met the boardâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s criteria to fill in for the teachers by the entry deadline date. Gabriel Paul, a Grade 12 student at Canterbury High School, said he was protesting because he believes the bill is taking away a lot of basic rights from teachers â&#x20AC;&#x201C; like the right to strike. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I believe that is not right whatsoever and I also believe the teachers are not handling this correctly,â&#x20AC;? he said. Paul, who is part of Canterburyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s jazz and concert band, added that taking away extracurricular activities from students is just not right. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It has taken away one of

Eddie Rwema/Metroland

Hundreds of students gather at Premier Dalton McGuintyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Ottawa office in Alta Vista on Sept. 19 to voice their anger with the loss of their extracurricular activities due to disagreements between the teachersâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; unions and the province. the things that I enjoy most from school,â&#x20AC;? he said. Kai Benson, another Canterbury student, was looking forward to forging a career

in music and said she now feels those hopes may soon be shattered. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Ninety per cent of my curriculum is outside school.

STEP BY STEP, WEâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;LL FIND A CURE!

Music is what I want to do the rest of my life and this bill is taking away what to me is the most important thing in our education,â&#x20AC;? she said.

â&#x20AC;&#x153;I am here because I want the premier to understand that students have a voice and that we are not going to be voting for him next election.â&#x20AC;?

Fall paddle offers history lesson Pinhey’s Point Historic Site

EMC events - Explore your local history from a new vantage point on Sunday, Sept. 30. Pinhey’s Point Historic Site will take visitors on a twohour paddle of the Ottawa River, where they will hear stories about Pinhey’s old neighbours and learn about the area’s natural history. Participants are required

to bring their own canoe or kayak and appropriate safety equipment. The fall paddle is $10 a person and takes place from 1 to 3:30 p.m. Pinhey’s Point is located at 270 Pinhey’s Point Rd., Dunrobin. For more information, visit the website at ottawa.ca/museums. Pinhey’s Point is a historic site and estate located on the scenic shores of the Ottawa River. The estate was the

home of Hamnett Kirkes Pinhey, a British settler who was a leading member of Upper Canada. The Pinhey family lived in the home until the early 1970s. This is a great place for boaters, picnickers and people who just want to enjoy the green space. Tours of the house and the ruins of Old St. Mary’s Church are available upon request.

Aries, relaxing for a few days seems like the perfect idea, but restlessness will ultimately thwart these plans. Engage in low-energy activities, instead. Taurus, you might find it difficult to ask for what you desire, but you just have to buckle down and make a stand. It may not be easy, but your efforts will prove fruitful. Gemini, you are in your element this week and the good vibes will last for several days. There’s no pressure to get things done, so keep on sailing. Cancer, it may seem like a good idea to retreat to a fantasy world when the going gets tough, but you’ll need to have your feet and mind firmly planted in reality this week.

Here’s How It Works: Sudoku puzzles are formatted as a 9x9 grid, broken down into nine 3x3 boxes. To solve a sudoku, the numbers 1 through 9 must fill each row, column and box. Each number can appear only once in each row, column and box. You can figure out the order in which the numbers will appear by using the numeric clues already provided in the boxes. The more numbers you name, the easier it gets to solve the puzzle!

India 3. Ribosomal ribonucleic acid 4. Ironies 5. Peaceable 6. Between 7. Cessation of activity 8. “Little House” actor Merlin 9. Lying in one plane 10. Joins the military 11. Knock out 12. British School 13. Puts on clothing 21. Radioactivity unit 22. Helps little firms 25. Podetiums 26. Fluid accumulation in tissues 27. Backed seat for one

Leo, it is good to be optimistic, but it also helps to develop a plan in case things don’t go your way. Ask a friend or family member for help when devising your plan. Virgo, concentration comes naturally to you, so don’t worry if some extra work at the office is presented at the last minute. Ask a coworker for help, if necessary.

Last week’s answers

You are eager to listen and learn, Libra, but you also want to share your own experiences. This week you will need to find a balance between being a student and a teacher. Scorpio, think things through before making big decisions. There is some pressure on you, but concentrate and focus on the task at hand. Make some decisions now before you change your mind again, Sagittarius. Too much information can cloud your judgement, so go with your gut. Capricorn, you are at a turning point in your life and it could be a good time to make a few important changes. This may involve a new career or making new friends. Aquarius, even if you have a lot to get done, you will be able to think on your feet and make changes as needed depending on the situation this week. Actively explore your impulses in the next few days, Pisces. You may not have the opportunity to do so later on.
