EMC news - Residents got a chance to see the future of Greenbank Road and the park-and-ride that will terminate the southwest Transitway extension during an open house in Barrhaven on June 11. In 2006 the city approved a recommended plan for a realigned Greenbank Road. The plan incorporated Greenbank from Malvern Road to Cambrian Road. The area was defined as a key component of the transportation network in the community. The community design plan identified an extension of Greenbank south of Cambrian to the former urban boundary. But Tim Dickinson, a planner that works for MMM Group, the consultant that is working on the project’s environmental assessment, said with the expansion of the urban boundary to Barnsdale Road, development proposals between Cambrian and the Mahogany development in Manotick have necessitated a study of the transportation network in the area. “The communities of Barrhaven and Manotick represent 30 per cent of the city’s population growth,” Dickinson said.

40 years of fun and games The Nepean Sportplex’s 40th anniversary was celebrated on June 8 with a fun day hosted by Knoxdale-Merivale Coun. Keith Egli. Families had a chance to try out different sports and visit city vehicles on Minto Field, outside the Sportsplex. Nick Miller, a.k.a. Fun Ref, uses a giant stick to fire a field hockey ball. The Nepean Nighthawks team was on hand to share a few tips with children and adults who wanted to try out the sport. See more photos on page 6.

Commercial plaza, more homes now permitted around Deerfox Drive
Laura Mueller laura.mueller@metroland.com
EMC news - A new commercial area can now be built on Woodroffe Avenue in Barrhaven following a localized zoning review.
The change is the result of the city’s first targeted review by the new zoning consistency team, which formed after an announcement at the city’s Planning Summit in 2012. The team of planners originally recommended the wooded areas along
Woodroffe north and south of Deerfox Drive be developed with homes, but after consulting with local residents, planners decided a commercial plaza would be a better fit. See RESIDENT, page 6

The transit study, which looked at trafďŹ c patterns from Barrhaven South and Manotick during the morning peak hours, was one of the things presented to residents during the ďŹ rst of three public consultations held at the Stonebridge Golf and Country Club. The report says 2,800 transit trips are forecast to originate from Barrhaven south and Manotick in the peak morning hours by 2031. The old location of Greenbank road would be closed off at the Jock River for motorists, but where the new road goes and where the transit system terminates are all up for debate. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We have to see if people want the park-and-ride in the centre of the community or if people wanted it extended further to Barnsdale,â&#x20AC;? Dickinson said. One resident said he was concerned with a Barnsdale-road parkand-ride, people would start to use Viewbank Road â&#x20AC;&#x201C; which isnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t really able to handle that much trafďŹ c. Frank McKinney, an engineer with the city, said that would be considered when they were looking at locations. The city is currently working on an environmental assessment of the area. Dickinson said that would include walking the route and identifying species at risk. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We will work with the developer (Minto), to see what has already been done,â&#x20AC;? he said. Klaus Beltzner, president of the Manotick Village Community Association, asked if a Highway 416 interchange on Barnsadale Road â&#x20AC;&#x201C; included in the cityâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s 2008 Trans-

Police ask residents to help keep public sex off Greenbelt trails Jennifer McIntosh jennifer.mcintosh@metroland.com
EMC news - While public sex on Greenbelt trails near a Slack Road parking lot deters residents from walking there, Glens Community Association president Agnes Warda said media attention has helped to stop some of the cruising. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Hopefully soon we can begin using the trails for nature walks and bird watching again,â&#x20AC;? Warda said during the community associationâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s annual general meeting at the Metropolitan Bible Church on June 10. The infamous P15 lot â&#x20AC;&#x201C; on Slack Road between Merivale Road and Woodroffe Avenue
â&#x20AC;&#x201C; garnered attention last fall as residents complained they couldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t use the Crown land because it was a prevalent gay cruising site. Const. Tim Murray, who works as the community police officer for the area surrounding the parking lot, said he monitored traffic to the site for much of May. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I have spent 20 hours at that parking lot from May 16 to the end of the month,â&#x20AC;? he told residents. Murray has been handing out Make the Right Call stickers to people he has met in the parking lot. Murray said he stayed away from an enforcement approach, preferring public education instead.

â&#x20AC;&#x153;I would approach people and tell them residents have concerns about public sex in the area and if they see suspicious activity could they call the police,â&#x20AC;? Murray said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Of course everyone I talked to it was their first time there and a lot of them had just pulled over to adjust something in their trunk.â&#x20AC;? But Murray canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t do it alone. He said despite the fact that Ottawa police are aware of the activity, the organization uses a response-based approach. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Everyone knows whatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s going on,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;But there have only been a handful of calls to police in the last five years.â&#x20AC;? Calls will translate into police presence in the area, which will act as a deterrent, he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I have been monitoring the (cruising) websites and they talk about a police officer being there to hand out stickers,â&#x20AC;? Murray said. A listings site called cruisingforsex.com posted a link to a Nepean-Barrhaven News story about the parking lot two days after it was published in November. â&#x20AC;&#x153;News reports residents complaining of sex in the park, used condoms, etc,â&#x20AC;? the Nov. 3, 2012 post reads. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Be considerate and discrete. Police are â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;awareâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; but there is no report of a crackdown. Cruising for sex is mentioned.â&#x20AC;? Murray reminded residents that the municipal address of the lot is known to police.

â&#x20AC;&#x153;If you see four or five cars parked in backwards with lone drivers, call the police,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;You donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t have to leave your name or number and a car will go out and have a look.â&#x20AC;? AREA CRIME
Other than the infamous parking lot, Murray said the area is relatively crime free. The number of break and enters has remained static for the last two years, with two reports each year. The statistics measure a time period of Jan 1 to May 31. Murray gave the figures for last year then compared them to the same period in 2013. Suspicious incidents went down by one from 8 in 2012 to 7 in 2013. Disputes went down from zero in 2012 to one in 2013. Suspicious cars reported stayed the same for both years, with three reports. Theft from vehicles also stayed the same, with two reports for both periods. But Murray said residents need to remember the importance of calling police. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Often thefts from vehicles donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t get reported,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;And calls mean police are aware of any trends in an area.â&#x20AC;? The number to report a crime is 613-2306211.

Resident supports zoning Continued from page 1
Homes similar in density to existing neighbouring homes could be built behind the commercial area, off Deerfox Drive. The new zoning still allows for residential development on those sites, but adds other retail options and even the possibility of a retirement home – something the appealed to residents, said Kertsen Nitsche, the planner who led the study. Roberto Mirabelli, a local resident who participated in the review, thanked the city for expediting something that has been “a few years in the making.” The zoning review kicked off after a developer proposed rezoning three of the properties to allow for 154 townhomes and stacked townhomes with underground parking. That application was withdrawn following a public outcry. The underdeveloped area sticks out like a sore thumb, he said, and residents were starting to become concerned about what developers might propose to build there. The land was previously designated simply as reserve land for future development. “This has been a somewhat touchy topic at times,” Mirabelli told the planning committee on June 11. “We want to thank you for the opportunity to move forward and not be stuck in a no-man’s zone.” Barrhaven Coun. Jan Harder said there was a lot of engagement in the
study because residents were enthusiastic about the chance to help define the future of their community. Around 100 people participated in the review – a large turnout for a suburban community, Harder said – and the end result reflects views held by a majority of people who participated. Water and sewer hookups will have to be extended to the sites before anything can be built. Soon, a park-and-ride lot will be built farther south. The strip of land in question is just over a kilometre away from Barrhaven’s town centre. The local commercial zone would permit buildings up to 11 metres tall, which would help preserve the mostly low-rise feel of the area. That was important to residents, Nitsche said. The types of businesses allowed in the zoning aren’t expected to generate a lot of vehicle traffic, she said. There is already a strip mall and gas station to the north of the rezoned area and a larger big-box retail plaza to the south, said Nitsche. Planning committee chairman Coun. Peter Hume said he was pleased with the new, quicker process to proactively look at areas that should be redesignated by the zoning consistency team. “It’s not been easy to change what in some cases you’ve been doing for decades, but we’re starting to do that,” he said. “Our work is not necessarily what the community wants, not necessarily what the developers want … It’s good planning.”`

A rose by any other name
L
ike many fans, we’re a little disappointed after the city’s new Canadian Football League franchise announced its name as the Ottawa RedBlacks. The naming has certainly put Ottawa on the map, but not in a good way. The moment it was announced, the Internet lit up like a Christmas tree with people criticizing the choice on sports fan websites and Twitter accounts. To make matters worse, the franchise sent out a request to the media to spell out the name using all caps. One pundit on the Internet quipped, “The Ottawa REDBLACKS are apparently that one guy in high school who wants to give himself his own nickname that everyone calls him.” Jeff Hunt, president of Ottawa Sports and Entertainment Group, the organization responsible for bringing CFL football back to the National Capital Region, said red and black are the colours of Ottawa sport, with teams ranging from the original Rough Riders of the 1890s to the past and modern day Senators. The name is “unique, maybe even a little edgy,” said Hunt, adding it’s a brand that will stand the test of time and that fans will eventually get used to it.
But that begs the question, why introduce a name that fans must “get used to”, instead of coming up with something creative, that captures the imagination of a city, and makes fans eager to get behind the team? If the franchise wanted to attract a whole new generation of fans, why pick a name that harkens back to the 20th century? Also, RedBlacks doesn’t exactly smack of creativity -- we can only imagine the process for coming up with that logo: something along the lines of “Hey, the uniforms are red and black...why not call them RedBlacks!” The name RedBlacks will probably stick, but following the example of sports cities throughout the ages, fans will inevitably invent a more palatable nickname. Something that rolls of the tongue when people cheer at Lansdowne Park -- the same way fans in other cities came up with the Habs for the Montreal Canadiens. Blue Shirts for the New York Rangers, or the Boatmen for the Toronto Argonauts. Eventually we’ll learn to live with the club’s official name. As William Shakespeare once said, “A rose by any other name would smell as sweet.”

Neighbourhood summer events prove it’s always nicer outside
T
hings that start small and comfy can get big and out of hand, particularly if they are successful. Eventually, people begin to lament the absent smallness and comfiness. You see that happening in today’s discussions about the ByWard Market. If this has happened to Westfest, a neighbourhood festival that started 10 years ago, it isn’t obvious from the little window of it I took in. Certainly it has grown considerably, attracting more visitors and presenting bigger entertainment names. But the neighbourhood feeling still survives. I walked down there on a Saturday thinking it would be a nice to grab some street lunch. Walking was my first good decision. Success breeds cars and cars breed congestion and congestion breeds ill temper. Walking avoided all that, and produced an appetite. Where there are crowds you will find people with different attitudes towards being in them. For example, some people are attracted to long line-ups, figuring that they must indicate that the food is good. Other people, instinctively go where the lineup is shortest. That would be me, finding a very nice Polish sausage from a wagon at a traditional spot beside Mountain Equipment Co-op. There then followed a period of trying to remember

how to walk and eat at the same time, followed by a period of trying to remember how to get mustard off a shirt. At this time of the day, a kind of happy amateurism prevailed. The big names would come later, after dark, but for now there was a feeling that it was people you knew playing the guitars and violins. Many street musicians and entertainers were highly experienced, you could tell, but there were also high school kids happily pounding out their rock chords, perhaps newly emerged from the garage. There was an enjoyable middle school stage band playing Route 66 for an appreciative crowd. One puzzling thing: of the 21 musicians in the band, only three were boys, by my count. Why is that? Don’t the guys know how much fun it is to pick up a horn and be in Published weekly by:

the band? Just down the street is a jazz band of middle-aged men and women. You can tell they’re having fun. The spirit of amateurism is also evident in the booths, where small items are being sold, worthy causes are being promoted and demonstrations of this and that are taking place. Few of the people staffing the booths do this for a living. That means there is no such thing as a hard sell, which is refreshing. It also means that the customers are more patient than they might be in store. At a neighbourhood thing like this, you bump into people know you and stop to chat. When you think back upon those chats, you realize they have one thing in common: Nobody is complaining. How rare is that? Two people in Ottawa meet and converse and nobody complains? It must be the sausages and the proximity of ice cream. Or it may be that there are no cars around. We own the street on this day and it feels good. (Although the sensation can be a bit disorienting at intersections where cars reappear and the pedestrians and drivers have temporarily forgotten to watch out for each other.) Another puzzling thing: nobody talks about hockey. This is Canada and the finals

Sure, the Senators are out of the playoffs, but it feels like a cultural shift that the acquaintances you meet are talking about everything but hockey. Maybe it’s just a peculiar bunch of acquaintances. Everywhere there is food – healthy food, of course, but also an infinite variety of cookies and muffins and ice cream and honey and pickles and more exotic fare, sold by people who seem to be pleased to be out of doors. People are always nicer outside, haven’t you noticed?

Encore Steel fined after worker fatally injured EMC news - Encore Steel, an Ottawa steel fabricator, has been fined $75,000 for a violation of the Occupational Health and Safety Act after a worker was fatally injured. On June 4, 2012, two workers were loading steel beams onto a truck at an Encore Steel industrial facility located at 1090 Cummings Ave. When the truck was loaded, one of the workers climbed up on to the load of beams to ensure that they were stable and to help strap them down. While standing on the load, that worker instructed the other to use a forklift to move a beam closer to the middle of the truck. The worker standing on the load remained there while the other used the forklift to move the beam. The beam slipped off the forks and knocked the worker off the truck. The worker fell 2.9 metres to the ground and sustained fatal injuries. Encore Steel pleaded guilty to failing to ensure that materials were lifted, carried or moved in a way that
did not endanger a worker. The fine was imposed by Justice of the Peace John A. Balkwill. In addition to the fine, the court imposed a 25-per-cent victim fine surcharge, as required by the Provincial Offences Act. The surcharge is credited to a special provincial government fund to assist victims of crime.

lowed by a cryptic note saying, in a nutshell, “Don’t send anyone in my family messages because we don’t need information from you.” When I received this message, I was confused. I had come to the message in a very positive mood. I also hadn’t messaged anyone on Facebook for nearly a week, so I wasn’t sure to what “family messages” the relative referred. As one does in these situations, I sent back a question mark symbol, the lazy, social media way of asking for more information. I’ve been burned by Facebook messaging before. Particularly when there’s a generational divide or some sort of emotional content, I’ve learned these things are best dealt with person-to-person. I asked the relative to call me so we could sort out the misunderstanding. She didn’t call. The result? It ate away at me -- for days! Until finally, she sent me another nasty note on Facebook. And that was the end of the line. Evidently, this individual and I could not -- and were not Facebook friends. We couldn’t handle it. She wasn’t using Facebook properly, according to my own standard. I wasn’t using Facebook properly, according to her standards. The honeymoon phase of Facebook is over. While many of us came at the social medium with gusto, friending every high school ex, work acquaintance and relative, it’s
time to start weeding out the contact list. When deciding who to keep, ask yourself this, “can you handle being Facebook friends?” Look into your crystal ball. What are the possibilities of offending or alienating each person, and more importantly, what are the consequences if it all blows up? Facebook is not about truth. It’s about the public representation of oneself. If you like to use Facebook to complain about work or clients, it’s probably best to get your boss and colleagues (and clients) off your friends list. If your family members get annoyed every time you post something, it’s time to hit the unfriend button. There are many other, better ways of communicating with family and close friends. If you’re not ready to start eliminating people from your list, try to be a little more discerning -- both in how you send and receive messages and in who you allow to be part of your public platform. Communications 101 tells us that there is frequently a divide between what you intend to communicate in a message and how it’s received. If you’re not checking back with people frequently to make sure they’ve received your message as intended, you could be setting yourself up for a storm. Most of all -- and take it from me, I’ve learned the hard way -- be polite. It will get you much farther and, ultimately, allow you to keep more friends.

acebook’s tagline goes something like this: “Facebook helps you connect and share with people in your life.” It sounds so rosy, doesn’t it? But the majority of us don’t know how to use Facebook with etiquette. We’re sharing opinions and criticisms that nobody wants to hear. We’re posting edgy videos that get our mom’s friend’s sister, Alma’s knickers in a twist -even though we never intended them for her eyes at all. We receive political propaganda, emotional appeals, updates from the neighbour’s teenager’s dating scene, and all the while, our role is to choose how to react or not. Most of us, frankly, aren’t discerning enough to figure out the way to go. Call it the limitations of human relationships, but if I don’t have a clue who’s reading my messages or how it’s being received, chances are that somebody, somewhere has the opportunity to feel offended by something I post. And as a May 2012 Huffington Post blog pointed out, perhaps the biggest problem is that there isn’t actually a rulebook or manual for Facebook usage. Every single one of us approaches the medium with a different expectation of how it’s meant to be used. I, for one, think Facebook is the worst medium for having any kind of authentic, emotional conversation. Others don’t share this opinion. Case in point: I received a nasty Facebook message from an older relative last week. I hadn’t received a message from this person since 2007. When I opened the messages on mobile, the feed came through in a single blob. Something along the lines of, “How are your babies (plural, which confused me because it was actually a six-year-old message), fol-

Melanie Adams, director of the Queensway Carleton Hospital Foundation, welcomes the Fab Five to the Bushtukah store in Stittsville on Feb. 22.
Fab five set for cycling fundraiser Jennifer McIntosh jennifer.mcintosh@metroland.com
EMC news - Nancy Penk, one of the five women chosen by the Queensway Carleton Hospital to participate in the Wheels for Wellness fundraiser, said she is surprised by how much she enjoyed training for the 50kilometre bike ride in the city’s west end. The hospital partnered with Share the Road Cycling Coalition and GranFondo Canada for the event, which will hopefully become an annual fundraiser for the hospital’s new, five-year, $40-million Better Tools for Better Care fundraiser campaign. “The funds will go towards outfitting the new expansion with equipment,” said Karalee Bowles, who works with the hospital’s charitable foundation. The event was announced in January and five women were chosen a month later to participate in the 0-50 challenge – which
offered training and nutritional support to help them complete the 50-km ride. Penk, a 57-year-old financial planner who lives in Perth, said the group started training in March, but weren’t able to get on the road until the beginning of May. The women were trained by hospital foundation volunteer Jim Brockbank. He took the group out twice a week to practice things like staying in formation and sharing the road with vehicles. Penk, who has to drive in from Perth for the 7:30 a.m. weekend practices, said she was surprised she was able to stick to it. She said she didn’t really exercise much and when she visited the doctor, her tests came back OK. “But I didn’t want to wait too late, or for there to be a problem before I started to get healthy,” she said. Aside from the physical training, the participants had to work on their diet.
Jennifer Camirand, from Be Well Nutrition, offered nutritional support in the form of counselling, meal plans and grocery shopping tips. “It was a bit of an adjustment,” Penk said. The team was chosen through the Women Leading Care Network, which brings together women leaders in the community to discuss healthcare issues. Each member of the team was to raise $750 for the fundraiser. The festivities kicked off with a Family FunDo on June 14. The barbecue will be on the hospital’s Baseline Road campus. The next day, participants were to cycle along a 50- or 105-kilometre route in the west of the city. Bowles said the longer bike ride will take cyclists as far as Almonte before heading back to the hospital campus. To learn more about the fundraiser visit wheelsforwellnessottawa.ca.

Ontario truckers demand equality with blockade Jennifer McIntosh jennifer.mcintosh@metroland.com
EMC news - In a bid to draw attention for his private members bill, Fairness is a Two-Way Street, CarletonMississippi Mills MPP Jack MacLaren and a group of supporters shut down a lane of traffic on the Champlain Bridge June 13. The act â&#x20AC;&#x201C; if it becomes law â&#x20AC;&#x201C; would make construction projects on the Ontario side of the Ottawa River off limits to Quebec-based firms. A similar law was enacted by the Harris government in 1999 but was repealed by the liberals in 2006. MacLaren was joined by long-time trucker Lloyd Griffith, who said having to compete with Quebec truckers who donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t pay taxes in Ontario makes it an uneven playing field. Walter Pamic, who owns an electrical services company, said it was easier to send his employees to Nicaraugua and Poland then deal with the red tape when he tried to send people to Quebec. Ron Barr, who helped to organize the protest with MacLaren, is a spokesperson for the Greater Ottawa Trucking Association. He said many of the people he represents are having trouble making ends meet because Quebec truckers donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t pay fees to work in Ontario, making it possible for
them to underbid on jobs. Barr said he and MacLaren brought along a dozen trucks as a gesture, but he could get a lot more. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Obviously I donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t want to do that, but I could have brought a 100 trucks,â&#x20AC;? he said, adding protesting truckers could shut down the city. MacLarenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s bill has already gone through the first reading. He expects it to go through second reading on Sept. 12 and become law by Christmas. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We had no intention of trying to stop (Quebec truckers and contractors) up until now,â&#x20AC;? McLaren said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;This will slam the door on Quebec. Quebecers will lose jobs but we are going to protect Ontario jobs.â&#x20AC;? MacLaren thanked College Coun. Rick Chiarelli, who is attempting to introduce a motion that would bar Quebec construction companies from bidding on city jobs. Chiarelli wasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t immediately available for comment, but he plans to bring the motion to a vote on June 26. Barr said he would continue to champion the cause of Ontario truckers to local politicians. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We need to take care of Ontario first,â&#x20AC;? he said. With files from Derek Dunn

He has always had a hunger for food knowledge and over the years has owned a gourmet sub shop, a deli, a bakery, and a restaurant. His famous sandwiches will be on sale for $1, along with an optional donation, on June 23 at his Greenbank Road restaurant, thanks to an annual fundraiser he hosts for the Tourette Syndrome Foundation of Canada - Ottawa Chapter. Spartico, who suffers from Tourette’s himself, started hosting the fundraiser three years ago. It was a year after his son was dianosed with Tourette’s. Since the diagnosis, Spartico said he wanted to raise awareness and prevent
Now if anyone asks about his tics, his classmates can explain what’s happening. FRANK SPARTICO

his son from being bullied. “We got the president of the Tourette Syndrome Foundation of Canada to come out and talk to his class,” Spartico said. “Now if anyone asks about his tics, his classmates can explain what’s happening.” Aside from the actual event, a jar on the restaurant counter takes donations to the Tourette’s Syndrome Foundation in place of tips. Tourette syndrome is a neurological disorder characterized by repetitive, stereotyped, involuntary movements and vocalizations called tics. Spartico takes pride in creating most of his food from scratch. His restaurant has a real family feel with his daughter working the counter. He said he hopes the fundraiser will be a real party.

Teacher says course taught global citizens Teacher Cathy Belanger says the course involved 18 students and many, many people who believed in the concept of bringing together book work and practical work. “The big winners in this pilot project were the kids, who not only now understand the complexities of the Costa Rican economy but can speak Span-
ish,” she said. Belanger added that the students fundraised for a year, selling Costa Rican coffee imported from a plantation, running bake sales and talent shows during the school year. The Rotary Club of South Nepean also generously partnered with the students. The trip involved living with host families in the small rural community of San Ignacio. Students were partnered with
families and learned what it was like to live and work in the community. Jobs included helping at a wellness center to get its business licence re-instated, creating a library in a school, teaching English to primary students and helping the principals of three different schools digitize and organize their records. “The experience was an overwhelming and joyous teaching

Brownie (A154083) is a 10-month-old, neutered male, tan Labrador Retriever and Mastiff mix dog with the most beautiful puppy-dog eyes that will make your heart melt. He was brought to the shelter as a stray on March 21, and is patiently waiting for a family who will take him on
big adventures! Brownie would be a great cottage dog as he loves to play in the water, and would never miss the opportunity to make new friends! Brownie would rather not be cooped up inside all day. In addition to lots of daily exercise, he would love a bit of space, and
and learning experience,” Belanger said. The people of San Ignacio welcomed all of us as extended family members and were so appreciative of all the work that was being done to help their community.” Students not only obtained two credits towards their high school diploma, they also grew more aware of their role as global citizens.
maybe even a yard to play in! Brownie would love to spend lots of time with you, and needs lots of exercise and mental stimulation to keep him busy. Leash walks are great but he will also need to run, so trips to the dog park are encouraged! Brownie will need a confident and experienced owner, with your guidance and dedication he will be a wonderful friend. Parker (A152884) is a three-year-old, neutered male, Domestic Longhair cat who loves to play. He was brought to the shelter as a stray on January 21, and is looking for his forever home. Parker gets along with the quieter children who visit him at the shelter, and wouldn’t mind living with them. Parker is laid-back and is looking for a family that will give him some alone time, and a nice sunny spot to perch in, from which he can watch the world fly by!

Take your dog with you on your weekend getaway to other campers or animals. If you are going to camp with a dog (or dogs), it is important that the dog is well-behaved around other people (both adults and children) and animals. Your dog will need to understand when play time is over and how to be quiet. You may want to consider taking the dog to basic training which will help both you and the dog in the new environment – it will make you a better, more responsive dog owner, and it will help you keep your canine companion comfortable in the new place. You know your dog better than anyone. You know what may or will provoke a defensive reaction, and you need to know the steps to take to appropriately deal with any situation that may arise. Make sure your dog is upto-date on vaccinations because dogs can encounter unvaccinated animals while camping. Dog licenses should also be current, and a microchip and identification tags up-to-date. A second set of tags with your cell phone number (or perhaps the number of the cottage or the campsite you will be staying) may be a good idea.

Mia (4months) and Walter (7 1/2 yrs) first came to meet two months ago. It was love at first sight. Their first time meeting, Walter brought Mia every single toy he had. Mia preferred chewing on Walters face. In two months they’ve enjoyed bone’s together, nap times cuddled up, long afternoon strolls, and a slew of tug o’ war matches. These two have a bond that will last a life time of chasing squirrels.

It’s that time of year when weekend getaways are appealing, and summer vacation time is just around the corner. The OHS receives a higher number of dogs surrendered or abandoned as strays in the summer months because their owners cannot find care for the canines during their vacation. But why not pick a getaway that’s fun for the whole family, furry members and all? Camping with your canines can be a lot of fun, and a learning experience for everyone involved. Dogs discover interesting things you might otherwise overlook, and a dog is always thrilled with new smells and sites. You may even see new characteristics in your dog when you are camping; they may walk a little faster, play a little happier, and show you other different aspects of their character you may not see day-to-day. Don’t forget, all these new smells and sites can be very exciting for a dog, and you have to be able to restrain your canine companion in the presence of distractions, such as deer, squirrels and other critters, and also be responsible enough to prevent the dog from being a nuisance

White says Senate should be reformed to fit needs of Canadians Former police chief addresses integrity concerns in the wake of Senate scandal Jennifer McIntosh jenifer.mcintosh@metroland.com
EMC news - Former police chief and Conservative Senator Vern White said itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s time for Canadians to have their say. During a talk at a Greater Nepean Chamber of Commerce breakfast held at the Centurion Conference and Event Centre on June 6, White took some time to talk about controversy surrounding some of his colleagues. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s nothing like I faced in policing,â&#x20AC;? White said of the controversy surrounding Senators Mike Duffy, Pamela Wallin and Patrick Brazeau. â&#x20AC;&#x153;There I had ofďŹ cers killed or ofďŹ cers kill people.â&#x20AC;? White said the main difference between dealing with similar issues as police chief and how the government is dealing with the embattled Senate is that loyalty has been placed over integrity. â&#x20AC;&#x153;They are the two most important things in policing,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Loyalty is important when I am going on a call with my partner. I have to know that he will potentially put his life on the line to protect me. But by the same token he has to know that if he does something wrong, like punch a suspect, that integrity trumps loyalty.â&#x20AC;? White said integrity was so im-
portant to him as a police chief that he ďŹ red ofďŹ cers he liked and ofďŹ cers he thought, other than the infraction; were good police ofďŹ cers. â&#x20AC;&#x153;But they no longer deserved my loyalty to continue on the police force,â&#x20AC;? he said. Recently White wrote to the Senate Ethics ofďŹ cer asking her to investigate a $1.7-million offshore trust that reports say names Liberal Senator Pana Merchant as a beneďŹ ciary. He said the situation in the Senate is made more difďŹ cult by the fact that loyalty is being placed over integrity in some cases.
There are some people that donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t deserve our loyalty. FILE
VERN WHITE
Senator Vern White, seen here while still Ottawaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s police chief, talked about the challenges facing the Senate during a meeting of the Greater Nepean Chamber of Commerce on June 6. â&#x20AC;&#x153;There are some people that donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t deserve our loyalty,â&#x20AC;? he said. White said he wouldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t have joined the Senate if there wasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t talk of reform. He said one of the positive outcomes of the controversy is that Canadians have never been more plugged into what they expect from
the Senate. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We need to ask Canadians what they want to see, and to be fair that could be abolishment,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;But if people want to see regional representation in areas where they donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t have any representation, thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s what we need to be doing.â&#x20AC;?

COMMUNITY ENGAGEMENT
He said one of the reasons most people come to the Senate is because of what they have done in their communities. â&#x20AC;&#x153;There are more Order of Canadas there than any other place I have seen,â&#x20AC;? he said.
White, a Kanata resident, is often asked to speak about community engagement. He came to policing after being on the wrong side of the law a couple of times during his teen years in Cape Breton. See VOLUNTEERS, page 16

I USE MINE TO PAY-PER-RIDE BECAUSE TICKETS COST MORE
But a job bartending at a little pub put him into contact with RCMP ofďŹ cers. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I used to ask them about policing and what it was like to be police ofďŹ cers,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;They suggested I do a ride-along and I told them I had done a couple, but they werenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t the best experiences.â&#x20AC;? Despite that, White completed 800 hours of ride along time before applying to work for the RCMP. During his career with them he worked his way up to assistant commissioner after 19 years serving in the countryâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s three northern territories. He said differing opinions on integrity with the commissioner of the day is why he made the move to municipal policing â&#x20AC;&#x201C; ďŹ rst with Durham and then with Ottawa. He said growing up in a small town has helped him to stay on the right path. His father, who worked as a coal miner, worked more than three decades without taking a sick day.
â&#x20AC;&#x153;When we messed up my dad used to ask us if we had known what the right thing to do was. If we said yes, then we had no excuse. There was no alternative,â&#x20AC;? White said. White said Ottawa was a unique community. â&#x20AC;&#x153;This city has more play than any other place I have lived,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I have yet to see a city with as many segments â&#x20AC;&#x201C; as many deďŹ nitions of community. People always say, â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;I am from Kanata, Cumberland or Nepean and I think that helps prop up the city to make it a better place to live.â&#x20AC;? White recalled the work he and other volunteers did with philanthropist Dave Smith in an effort to get two youth drug treatment centres built in the city. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We brought together more than 30 partners to raise $6 million and build two centres,â&#x20AC;? he said.

Lumière Gala to benefit cancer foundation Jessica Cunha jessica.cunha@metroland.com
EMC news - The Lumière Charity Gala is an important event for the Brookstreet Hotel, said Patrice Basille, executive vice president and general manager of the organization. Now in its 11th year, the event raises funds for the Ottawa Regional Cancer Foundation – a charity near and dear to the hotel staff. Eleven employees are cancer survivors, said Basille. His wife is also a breast cancer survivor. “They’ve all come through it,” he said. The Ottawa Regional Cancer Foundation is the perfect recipient, he said, because the money stays in the community and it’s possible to see where the funds are used.
“This is very important,” he said. “We all know we’ll be touched by cancer.” LUMIÈRE
The Lumière Charity Gala kicked off with a food demonstration at the Brookstreet Hotel on June 13. The hotel’s executive chef, Clifford Lyness, prepared a shrimp dish for those in attendance, served alongside duck, sushi and a variety of desserts. Lyness has created a preliminary menu, which may see a few changes before the Sept. 11 event, but the overall idea is to incorporate food from musical events around the globe. “The concept is to do (food from)
Beginning June 27, 2013, the Ottawa Police Service (OPS) will collect the observational recordings of the race of drivers involved in traffic stops for a two-year period. Drivers will not be asked to identify their race. The focus of the project is officer perception of driver race. Passengers are not included in the study. This project is the result of an agreement between the Ottawa Police Services Board and the Ontario Human Rights Commission (OHRC). The OHRC and the OPS believe that race-based data collection is important in ensuring bias-free policing services. The data will be provided to the OHRC at the end of the two-year collection period. It will be limited to information required for analysis. The data will not include any personal identifiers of drivers. The project will be the largest of its kind in Canada.

jazz festivals from around the world,” said Lyness. Some of the initial dishes include the Cajun spiced gulf shrimp, served with andouie sausage, fried grit cake, collards and sassafrass root beer sauce from the New Orleans Satchmo Summer Fest, and sushi served with traditional condiments from the Mt. Fuji Jazz Festival in Japan. “It’s a great event,” said Lyness about the gala. “It gets to showcase what we can do.” Lyness and his culinary team will prepare a nine-course meal paired with numerous wines. There will be live jazz, a silent and live auction and a fireworks show. The Lumière Gala is a partnership between the Brookstreet and the Wesley Clover Foundation to raise funds for the Ottawa Regional Cancer Foundation. “It’s a great cause,” said Lyness, who’s worked at the hotel for six years, and as executive chef for five.
“It’s always nice to be able to give back.” The Lumière Gala began as the hotel’s grand opening, but due to its success, chairman Terry Matthews decided it should become an annual event. “We’re all looking forward to it,” said Matthews, also founder and chairman of Wesley Clover International. “We’ll all have really good fun – a little music, a little fireworks, a little socializing, a little drink – what a great chemistry set we have to play with.” To date, the Brookstreet has donated more than $380,000 to local charities and another $162,000 to cancer research. “We’re doing something that’s beyond anything else taking place in Ottawa. And most importantly, we’re helping those people with cancer,” said Linda Eagan, president and CEO of the Ottawa Regional Cancer Foundation.

The inaugural Keltic Cup Golf Classic is also raising funds for the cancer foundation, in partnership with the Brookstreet and Chmiel Architects, with a tee-off on the morning of Sept. 11 at the Marshes Golf Club. “We’re half full so we’re very excited,” said Bill Toutant, president of Make Space Work and organizer of the Keltic Cup. “It’s going to be a fun, fun event.” The tournament will include breakfast, lunch, host drinks, gifts, a pre-gala networking reception and entry to the Lumière event.

Neil Young, Patti Smith to open Folk Festival Jennifer McIntosh jennifer.mcintosh@metroland.com
EMC news - Neil Young and Crazy Horse will rock the opening night of the Folk Festival on Sept. 4. The festival’s executive programming director Mark Monahan announced the lineup of the 20th edition of the event on June 11. Monahan said organizers added a day on the fourth because they landed the Canadian rocker for opening night. In the three years Monahan has overseen the event, he said he has seen the audience grow in numbers. It has also become more diverse and younger. Part of the reason for that, he said, was subsidized student passes available at the city’s two universities and Algonquin College. “We already have agreements with the University of Ottawa and Algonquin,” Monahan said. “We are just finalizing with Carleton.” Acts like Vampire Weekend, Amos the Transparent, The Sheepdogs and the Carolina Chocolate Drops are also aimed at bringing in a younger crowd.
Names like Neil Young, Pattie Smith and Emmylou Harris help the festival stick to its folk roots. The five-day event will kick off at Hog’s Back on Sept. 4 and close on Sept. 8 – a little bit later than its been held in the past, but Monahan said he isn’t worried about the weather. “One of the rainiest festivals was when it was held in the third week of August,” he said. “Obviously you run a risk when its an outdoor festival but we had a look at the forecast and things are pretty similar weather-wise in the first couple of weeks in September.” Monahan added the new timing will coincide with orientation at the universities, ensuring students will be in town to enjoy the festivities. Passes went on sale June 12 at 10 a.m. for the early bird price of $128.50 for a five-day, adult transferrable wristband. Youth wristbands are nontransferrable and cost $99. The early bird price ends on June 14 at midnight, at which point adult wristbands are $148.50 and youth ones are $119. Like Bluesfest, Folk Festival passes will come in the form of radio frequency identification

When it comes to exercise and fall prevention, twice as many seniors will soon benefit from classes that will be offered in retirement homes, community centres, and other locations. All Long-Term Care Home residents will receive 75 minutes of exercise and activation classes per week, in addition to one-on-one physiotherapy, if needed. We will strengthen the quality of one-on-one physiotherapy in long-term care homes, and continue to offer exercise classes in these locations. Eligibility is not changing.
We will also integrate physiotherapists into family health care settings like Family Health Teams, Nurse Practitioner Led Clinics and Community Health Centres.

In total, we will help over 200,000 more Ontarians be healthier with better access to physiotherapy. This is in addition to the 215,000 Ontarians that currently benefit from the province’s physiotherapy services.
With these changes, wait times for physiotherapy delivered to people who need it in their homes will be dramatically reduced. Most importantly, it will be easier to access physiotherapy right across the province, including in small and rural communities.

With, Ottawa Valley LeafGuard you get MORE than a great gutter system you get expert installation and personal service from a local established company, who is going to be there during and after your installation. What’s Wrong with Clogged Cutters? Ordinary gutters capture rainwater and also collect leaves, twigs and other organic debris that can become clogged and create dams that impede the flow of water. These clogs cause water to spill over your gutter and pool on the ground below. This can result in damage to your shrubs; lead to surface erosion; and seep into your foundation causing cracks and basement flooding. Water can also spill behind the gutter causing damage to the wood of your fascia and soffit. If you have add-on toppers, helmets and hoods, that are attached to your roof and hang over your gutters, they are usually held in place by screws and nails hammered into your roof. Putting holes in your roof can cause leaks and may void your roof warrantees. Take the first step in making your home maintenance free

Centrepointe, Alta Vista libraries go high-tech this fall RFID tags speed up tracking of materials Laura Mueller laura.mueller@metroland.com
EMC news - Library branches in Alta Vista and Centrepointe will be next to receive a hightech book-sorting system this fall. Work is already underway to affix RFID tags – short for radio frequency identification – to library materials in order to automate the sorting process. Instead of a librarian having to scan each book, CD or DVD back into the library manually, that work will be done instantly by a machine that can pick up a radio signal to track that
the material has been returned to the library. The project to upgrade library branches to the new technology is meant to save time, ensure library materials are in circulation instead of sitting on a shelf waiting to be sorted and to free up staff time to provide other services for library patrons. The Hazeldean library branch in Kanata was the first branch to get the RFID technology last year. The Emerald Plaza branch in Nepean will also get the new system as part of a larger renovation which is expected to be completed early this fall, likely by September. The library board approved spending $634,500 on RFID equipment for the Centrepointe and Alta Vista branches. Combined with the cost for RFID at the Emerald Plaza branch, the Ottawa Public Library will spend $985,000 on the new technology this year.

Last week Council received the monthly update on economic development for the City of Ottawa, which I found interesting and wanted to share with you. The economic development update is broken down into four categories. Labour Market Following a signiďŹ cant decline in employment in March (-50,000 jobs), the Canadian labour market regained 12,500 jobs in April 2013, with approximately one third of job creation occurring in Ontario (+3,800). In stark contrast, the local labour force shed an additional 6,900 jobs in April, representing a 1.3 per cent drop in local employment. Participation in the Ottawa labour market also continued to decline in April (-1.0 per cent), marking the fourth consecutive monthly drop in the size of the local labour force. Despite the decline in employment and overall participation in the local labour market, Ottawaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s unemployment rate remained stable at 6.1 per cent in April, which is well below the provincial and national ďŹ gures (7.7 per cent and 7.2 per cent, respectively). Ottawa remains in a strong position at second lowest in the province. The Economy The annual inďŹ&#x201A;ation rate in Ottawa was 0.3 per cent in April 2013, marking the smallest growth in consumer prices since June 2009. As was the case over the past several months, local inďŹ&#x201A;ation remains slightly lower than provincial and national levels (0.4 per cent). According to the Conference Board of Canada, modest economic growth is expected for the Ottawa- Gatineau CMA. In a cross-city comparison, Ottawa-Gatineauâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s annual gross domestic product (GDP) will likely be the weakest of all census metropolitan areas, dropping from ninth position in 2012, to thirteenth (last) position in 2013. On a more positive note, the Conference Board also predicts that manufacturing in Ottawa will start to recover this year, largely due to positive growth in the information and communication technology sector (ICT). Letâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s hope this holds true for our City. Housing Housing starts in Ottawa totalled 515 for April 2013, up from 441 units at this time last year. The year-over-year growth in housing starts activity was driven almost entirely by an increase in condominium construction (+172 units over April 2012 ďŹ gures). There was also a signiďŹ cant increase in the number of semidetached units; however, these remain a small proportion of the overall new builds in Ottawa. Conversely, fewer single-detached homes are being constructed. As has been the case for several months now, housing starts were concentrated in the core of the city (61.5 per cent), due primarily to an abundance of condominium apartments. The areas of Nepean and Gloucester had the second-largest share of housing starts in April 2013 (approximately 10 per cent each). According to the most recent data released by Canada Mortgage and Housing Corporation (CMHC), the average selling price for a newly constructed single-detached residential property in Ottawa in April was $549,414, up signiďŹ cantly from the average price of $464,909 at this time last year. The average price of homes on the resale market was also up at $367,499. Construction According to the most recent data from Statistics Canada, the City of Ottawa issued building permits totalling $170.6 million in March: $128.6 million in residential permits and $42 million in non-residential permits. Contrary to the trend witnessed over the last several months, overall construction intentions in Ottawa increased in March (+32.4 per cent over February). Residential construction continued to gain momentum in March, rising 24.4 per cent over February levels. Similarly, non-residential construction picked up in March (+65.1 per cent), recovering from the signiďŹ cant drop recorded past month (-69.3 per cent). Commercial buildings experienced the single largest increase, with the value of permits issued in this category rising from $15.9 to $30 million. Despite the month-over-month increase, nonresidential construction continues to trend lower than at this time last year (-35.8 per cent since March 2012). Due to the cyclical nature of construction, volatility in the value of building permits issued on a month-over-month basis is not uncommon.

MPP celebrates clean energy partnership
New gas-to-energy plant offers clean energy solutions
Targeting International Tax Evasion Honest Canadians work hard and pay their taxes in full and on time. But some people feel that they are above the law. They take their money and hide it in offshore bank accounts, resulting in millions of dollars in lost revenue for the government. Since 2006, the Canada Revenue Agency has audited nearly 8,000 cases of suspected international tax evasion, identifying about $4.5 billion in unpaid taxes. This is not fair to law-abiding Canadians. That is why our government is cracking down on these international tax cheats to ensure that taxes on money hidden overseas are recovered.

Ottawa West-Nepean MPP Bob Chiarelli, centre, and provincial energy minister Bob Chiarelli opened the new Moose Creeke Energy’s facility on June 7. greenhouse gas emissions while strengthening our commitment to clean energy sources,” Chiarelli said in a press release. Energy Ottawa, a subsidiary of Hydro Ottawa the largest municipally-owned producer of
green power in Ontario. The Laflèche facility will divert up to 100,000 tonnes of greenhouse gas emissions annually by preventing landfill gas from being released into the atmosphere.
Since 2003, Ontario has brought more than 3,300 megawatts of renewable energy capacity online. This is expected to produce enough electricity each year to power over 900,000 homes.
By not paying taxes, these tax cheats increase the tax burden for average Canadians, leaving less money available for important services like health care and education. As part of Economic Action Plan 2013, our government is empowering the Canada Revenue Agency (CRA) with all the tools they need to crack down on this aggressive tax avoidance. We have created a dedicated team of international tax experts within the CRA who will help ensure the measures being implemented are working correctly. They will also be working closely with auditors to ensure that this money can be recovered quickly.
We Need You to
Clean Out Your Closets!
As part of our Plan, we will also give the CRA the ability to stop, locate and reclaim lost tax money by granting them the authority to review large international wire transfers. This move will also help prevent money laundering and potential terrorist activity. Furthermore, we have recently launched the ‘Stop International Tax Evasion Program’, which will enable the CRA to create a Crime Stoppers-type system, offering financial rewards for information that leads to the successful collection of taxes from an international tax cheats. The United Kingdom and Germany have similar programs which have proven highly successful at recovering hidden tax money.

EMC news - Ottawa WestNepean MPP Bob Chiarelli participated in the opening celebrations for Energy Ottawa’s newly constructed landfill gasto-energy facility. Moose Creek Energy’s Laflèche Facility is Energy Ottawa’s second landfill gasto-energy project. The 4.2 MW gas-to-energy plant, located at the Laflèche Environmental Inc. Landfill Facility, will generate enough green electricity to power more than 2,500 homes. The plant is a partnership between Energy Ottawa and Integrated Gas Recovery Services. Gas-to-energy is a clean technology that has been applied to landfills across the world. Electricity is generated from the capture and combustion of methane produced by landfills. This should reduces greenhouse gas emissions, while producing cleaner electricity to help Ontario eliminate polluting coalfired generation. “Ontario continues to be a clean energy innovator and Moose Creek Energy demonstrates that gas-to-energy is setting the stage for innovative strategies to help reduce

Finally, our government is proposing to change reporting requirements for Canadians who have more than $100,000 in foreign income or foreign property. This change will require that these Canadians additional information, in order to help the CRA determine if they have paid their fair share.
Cracking down on international tax cheats will help our government keep taxes low for lawabiding citizens, and help ensure that the services that Canadians and their families rely on are fully funded and paid for fairly and honestly.

Hydro Ottawa wins United Way ‘Best Community Campaign’ Award
Hydro Ottawa is honoured to be the recipient of this year’s United Way Ottawa’s ‘Best Community Campaign’ award.
NEVIL HUNT/METROLAND
Squishy save Andrew Rose of the Krew team dives into the soggy sand to keep the ball in play during a beach volleyball game on June 8 in Shefford Park. Hundreds of people supported CHEO with pledges and donations as they spent the day playing volleyball and ultimate Frisbee.
Last year, Hydro Ottawa employees took part in our most successful United Way Ottawa workplace campaign to date. Our 2012 campaign raised a record $201,905 for the United Way. This was made possible through employee donations, fundraising events and corporate matching dollars. Our award-winning campaign included a 10 km relay that saw a group of employees run from our Merivale Road office to our head office located on Albion Road North and a series of fundraising events that included a bake sale, chili cook-off and an online auction. Hydro Ottawa and its employees are strong supporters of the United Way. Through employee donations and corporate matching dollars, Hydro Ottawa’s United Way campaigns have raised more than $1.3 million over the past 12 years.

Childrenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Aid Society of Ottawa receives Fire Safety Award CAS partners with city to provide training EMC news - The Childrenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Aid Society of Ottawa received a Fire Safety Award from the Fire Mar-
shalâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Public Fire Safety Council at a ceremony on June 12 in Toronto. The annual Fire Safety Awards recognize outstanding contributions to fire protection and prevention in Ontario. Data from the Office of the Fire Marshal show that a number of fire fatalities occur among children who were receiving services from a child welfare agency. To help address this
issue, the Ontario Association of Childrenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Aid Societies developed Fire Safety and Prevention - A Resource Guide for Child Welfare Professionals. Based on this resource guide, the Childrenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Aid Society of Ottawa, with the support of the Ottawa fire department, delivered training sessions to their entire staff of field workers and incorporated a fire
safety component into their home assessments. During their assessments, CAS field workers ask the caregivers to check all of the smoke alarms in the home. If there is a problem with an alarm, the CAS worker corrects the situation before leaving or leaves a loaner smoke alarm. Ottawa fire then follows up and make sure the smoke alarm issue
properly corrected. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Thanks to the Childrenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Aid Society of Ottawa and the Ottawa Fire Services, vulnerable children and families are protected by working smoke alarms,â&#x20AC;? said Ted Wieclawek, Ontario fire marshal. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The resource guide is important because caregivers are provided with education about the importance of smoke alarms.â&#x20AC;?

Recycled flour bags served an indispensible role
G
oing into Renfrew to the grist mill with Mother was always a treat for me. I marvelled at how she bartered for a good price on the flour bags and how she always seemed to come out with a good bargain. The bags were piled willynilly in a heap in a corner and if we went early on a Saturday morning, before too many people beat us to it, the selection was at its best. Mother would take off one at a time, examine it closely, and either toss it aside, or put it in a pile by me. My job was to take the bag and fold it into a square so that it, with the others she picked, would fit nicely in the clothes hamper we brought from the farm. There would be no Saturday-night house party that week as my sister Audrey, Mother and I would spend the evening getting the bags ready for the Monday washing. There would be seams to rip out and those that needed it were cut open with the scissors so that they would lay flat. Of course, they still carried the remnants of the flour they
MARY COOK Mary Cook’s Memories once held and by the time we had worked our way through the basket of bags, we were covered from head to toe. Even our hair was flecked with flour. But since it was Saturday night anyway, our weekly bath and head wash would take care of that. Before they could be made use of, the flour bags had to be washed twice. On Monday morning, they were washed separate from the rest of the laundry, and hung over the fence to dry. That washing was to get rid of the flour dust. The next stage was one I detested and I tried to keep my distance. Mother bought big glass bottles of javel water from Briscoes General Store. Using a big square tub, the bags were soaked for the better part of a day in a mixture of water and javel. This was
supposed to take out the bright printing that came with every flour bag, but sadly, it never quite did the job. It wasn’t unusual for me to wear bloomers made out of the bags, with “Pride of the Valley” still quite visible across my behind. Then the bags had their second washing. If it was a sunny day, they were spread out on the grass outside in the hope the hot rays of the sun would further diminish the vivid printing on every bag. Although everyone I knew in Northcote made use of flour and sugar bags, older girls like my sister Audrey would never admit their underwear once came from Five Roses Flour. Happy was the day when Audrey was finally wearing store bought bloomers from Renfrew. But alas, as long
as I went to the Northcote School, my lot in life was flour bag underwear! The best bags, once they had been washed, were laid out flat and the very best of them became sheets. It took four bags to make one sheet and I was off the farm before I found out that sheets didn’t come with a seam down the middle and one going cross wards! Working around the printed words was a challenge for Mother. She made sure that the best pinny aprons were free of print and pillow cases, sometimes after being bleached three or four times, were ready for embroidering by Audrey and me. I thought my sister was very clever indeed. She made beautiful cross-stitching, which I never did seem to be able to master. French knots were another specialty of hers and “company” tea towels were festooned with lovely embroidery work, which I was quick to point out to whatever guest happened to be helping us red up the kitchen. The aprons Mother made out of flower bags were enormous. They had long tails to
tie at the back, and when I had to wear one to churn for butter, it covered me from chin to my ankles, and lay in a heap around my feet on the floor. A coat hook at the back kitchen door held many aprons. These were always fresh as a daisy, ironed, and spanking white. As soon as Mother heard someone come in the lane, she ripped off the apron she was wearing, even if she had just put it on that morning, and reached for one off the hook.
was known many years later as recycling was just another way of surviving those days when there was no money for frivolities. Although just about everyone at the Northcote School wore flour-bag underwear, with a few exceptions like my little friend Joyce and my rival Marguirite, there were times when I wished there was a better way of getting rid of the dyed printing on just about every pair of bloomers I wore.
The best bags, once they had been washed, were laid out flat and the very best of them became sheets Heaven forbid that she should be caught with a spot on an apron in front of company, even if it was just another farmer coming to have a chat with Father. Rick rack braid went on collars of flour-bag blouses to take away the look of where they had come from. The bags had many uses and the price was just right for those Depression years. And what
The answer came one morning when I was dressing for school. I mistakenly put the bloomers on backward. The printing was still there, but it was less likely to be seen in a game of tag or ball if my skirt accidentally flew up. Ever after I went to the Northcote School with my flour-bag underwear on backwards and no one was the wiser.

Exciting plans for homes tour underway Robert Greenslade
EMC news - The 11th annual Ottawa Homes for the Holidays tour on Nov. 15, 16, and 17 may be months from now, but lots of work is underway to make it the best ever. First, the tour is very pleased to have Brian Tobin as the honorary chair of the 2013 tour. He has a personal connection to the hospice. “The hospice’s care of my brother, Terry, and his family two years ago was so very comforting,” Tobin says. “Serving as honorary chair is one way I can express our family’s appreciation for that care and to encourage support for hospice services in Ottawa.” In addition to the new chair, several important and exciting changes to the feel and format of this year’s tour are also being made. As in past tours, six area homes have been selected, three of which will be exquisitely decorated by Ottawa florists. What’s different this year is that the other three will each be decorated reflecting a specific seasonal theme.
Visitors will find all the homes more enticing than ever. The boutique too is being rethought. Visitors will be able to browse the new Holiday PopUp Shop – at a surprise location – and find just the gift they’re looking for. What’s more, some of Ottawa’s best food purveyors are developing signature preserves, sauces, chutneys and other goodies to make that holiday meal just perfect. And visitors will be able to stay for a coffee or tea. Tour organizers are hoping this year’s tour will be the best ever as it supports the important work of the Hospice at May Court, which provides end-of-life care free of charge, and in a home-like setting, to some 600 people and their families each year. The official launch for the Homes for the Holidays tour takes place at the Hospice on Oct. 7, and ticket sales start of that date too. Keep an eye on the website www. hospicemaycourt.com. Join the tour on Facebook too.

EMC lifestyle - This is an easy summer entertaining brunch idea. The parfaits can be made ahead to allow for relaxed and easy entertaining. Wheat berries are a true whole grain: they are loaded with nutrients; add a slight crunch and subtle nutty flavour to the parfait. Layers of luscious, creamy whipped ricotta, chewy wheat berries, slices of strawberries and maple syrup for sweetness, will have everyone endlessly dipping their spoons and clanking the bottom for more. Preparation time: 15 minutes. Standing time: 12 hours. Cooking time: 90 minutes. Serves eight. INGREDIENTS
• 250 ml (1 cup) wheat berries • 25 ml (2 tbsp) packed golden brown sugar • 2 cinnamon sticks, broken in half • 2 ml (1/2 tsp) salt • 475 g (16.75 oz) traditional ricotta cheese • 175 ml (3/4 cup) maple syrup • 1 vanilla bean, split in half lengthwise • 1 l (4 cups) thinly sliced strawberries
beer-washed artisan
• 125 ml (1/2 cup) slivered almonds, toasted PREPARATION
Rinse the wheat berries in a colander then drain and set aside. In medium saucepan, whisk together the sugar, one litre (four cups) of water, the cinnamon sticks and salt. Add the wheat berries to the saucepan and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat to mediumlow, cover and cook, stirring occasionally, until the wheat berries are tender, or about 90 minutes. When finished, drain any liquid and discard the cinnamon sticks. (Make-ahead: Refrigerate in airtight container for up to three days; tuck in cinnamon sticks to extend flavour.) Meanwhile, in a food processor, purée the ricotta until it’s completely smooth. Add 125 ml (1/2 cup) of maple syrup. Scrape the vanilla seeds from the pod and add into the cheese. Process until smooth. (Makeahead: Refrigerate in airtight container for up to three days.) In eight dessert or wine glasses, put 25 ml (two tbsp) of
wheat berries, a heaping 50 ml (1/4 cup) of strawberries and a heaping 25 ml (two tbsp) of the whipped ricotta mixture. Repeat layering and then
sprinkle with almonds. Drizzle with the remaining maple syrup before serving. Foodland Ontario

Students study in San Ignacio, Costa Rica EMC news - What is the absolute best way to earn two high school credits? If you ask Longfields-Davidson Heights international business students, they will tell you traveling and studying in Costa Rica. The Costa Rica trip was the summative for the LDHSS international business course. But this course took dedication – it is held in addition to the students’ regular course load. The students involved went to class after-school, twice a week for a year. The curriculum covered international business theory and how it applied to Costa Rica. Topics included tourism, fair trade, economics and Spanish. The students obtained a second credit for international co-op by working in the small community of San Ignacio for two weeks. The trip was a partnership project between Canada World Youth, the public school board, LDHSS and the community of San Ignacio, Costa Rica.
