“It is a privilege to serve the residents of Beacon Hill-Cyrville. Please feel free to contact me anytime”.

Community - Pete Weston isn’t the new kid on the block – and when it comes to the block, he’s got it covered.

He got his block of Queenswood Heights involved in Neighbourhood Watch in 1983 and has been involved with volunteering every since.

Two years later he started volunteering with the police, and now, 28 years later, he’s been recognized with the Brenda Landry Award for Excellence in Volunteering and an Ontario Volunteer Award.

After starting out with the Queenswood Heights Neighbourhood Watch program, he became the chairman, and started volunteering with the OPP. After amalgamation, he began volunteering with the Ottawa police.

Always on the go, Weston’s volunteer jobs range from answering phones and helping visitors at the community police station on St. Joseph Boulevard, to doing home security

cumberlandfarmersmarket.ca

inspections and helping with the child fingerprint program.

Weston is certified to visit homes and give home security inspections, a free service provided by the police.

His weekly volunteer schedule varies because of all the different programs he’s involved in.

“I can put a good long day in,” he said. “It might be going to a barbecue with a police officer. We can be doing other things like child print, talking to them about crime prevention.”

Child print involves collecting information and fingerprints in case a child goes missing.

“He’s just one of those people who is always willing, and wanting, to help out,” said Orléans community police officer, Const. Caroline Tessier.

“He’s a wealth of knowledge and it’s fun to bring him out because he knows everyone in the community after 28 years of doing this.”

Cyclist struck by SUV on roundabout Brier Dodge

brier.dodge@metroland.com

News - A man was struck by an SUV on June 24 around 6 a.m. while travelling through the roundabout at Jeanne d’Arc and St. Joseph boulevards.

An off-duty fireman stopped to help the man, and police and paramedics were called. The cyclist was taken to the hospital, where he had received several stitches and was diagnosed with a broken clavicle.

Coun. Rainer Bloess said that in an

Ottawa Valley Tours

email the roundabout is “not overly friendly to cyclists,” but in the last traffic study he received, there were no reports of accidents in the roundabouts with cyclists or pedestrians.

Coun. Bob Monette also said he wasn’t aware of any prior accidents involving cyclists in the roundabout.

It’s important to note cyclist and pedestrian safety with the roundabouts so the future roundabouts planned for Trim Road can be made as safe as possible, he said.

Both Bloess and Monette said city staff would be asked to investigate the

incident.

It’s important for cyclists to follow the same rules as cars when taking the roundabout, said Orléans community police officer Const. Caroline Tessier.

She said the most common mistake she sees cars make when driving in the roundabout is treating the two lanes as one, and cutting off other cars.

“People should slow down (in the roundabout),” Tessier said. “Drivers need to be completely aware of their surroundings, whether it be pedestrians or cyclists.”

Rick Mofina releases new thriller novel Brier Dodge

brier.dodge@metroland.com

EMC news - Orléans author Ricki Mofina is hoping his next book lands where his last seven novels have: on The Globe and Mail’s bestseller list.

The former crime reporter turned civil servant writes crime and thriller novels in his spare time, often planning while commuting downtown on OC Transpo buses.

He’s launched his latest book, Into the Dark, which focuses on Los Angeles psychologist Claire Bowen.

She’s newly married to Robert, who is a local hero and pilot – but there is something wrong with him.

Claire can’t tell if it’s from trauma from his work, or if something else is going on.

She meets homicide detective Joe Tanner, who is working on solving some of the department’s cold cases.

The book includes a reporter, a common element in Mofina’s books. He said he often includes them because he feels comfortable writing about them, even if the technology has changed since he worked in a newsroom.

His challenge for this book was to write about a psychologist, someone who studies the human mind.

“Trying to get into the mind of a professional psychologist is a little tricky,” he said.

When writing the book, Mofina considered real life cases where a well-known member of the com-

The book is already on sale at a variety of locations, and he will be doing a book signing July 4 at the Book Stop from 6:30 to 8 p.m., across the street from the shopping centre at 41224 Place d’Orléans Dr.

A slice of nature located in Orléans’s backyard Brier Dodge

brier.dodge@metroland.com

Community - It doesn’t take long for students at Forest Valley Elementary School to get to a place where they can observe wildlife, see frogs, turtles and insects, and compare types of trees.

Friends of Petrie Island run a conservation program right next to the beach at Petrie Island, which makes it easy for local schools to bring students out to learn about ecology.

On June 25, a class of 24 students from Forest Valley came out to learn about frogs, to catch insects, and on a scavenger hunt.

TRIP

“It’s just such a nice yearend trip, and the kids love catching frogs and seeing in-

sects,” said teacher Suzanna Brydon.

“It’s a best-kept secret.”

Brydon said she takes students from nearby Forest Valley every year, and takes her own children in the summer.

The highlight for her students is getting to see turtle eggs.

Caleigh Delle Palme, the nature centre manager, said she often sees students from field trips return in the summer with family members.

Delle Palme, who studies biology, enjoys teaching students about how to be environmentally conscious.

“They’re learning respect for nature and the native species at Petrie, and they get to experience nature,” she said.

Delle Palme took a group of Forest Valley kindergarten students to see a marsh where frogs live, and explained why

they couldn’t touch them with their hands – any reside from soap or sunscreen can harm the frogs.

“Their skin is slimy, and you can’t touch them,” said kindergarten student Jason Gong, when asked what he learned.

“I like frogs so much.”

Friends of Petrie Island is run by volunteers and donations to hire summer students and complete projects. The school trips only cost $2 per student.

ACTIVITIES

The tours and activities aren’t just limited to school groups, as programs run throughout the summer.

For $2, youth can participate in either the junior naturalist sessions for ages two to five, or the youth naturalist for

ages six to 12.

This summer, Delle Palme is also hoping to expand the youth club for ages 12 to 14.

The group would focus on more advanced environmental issues.

Any families are welcome to take a tour from one of the staff who are at the centre.

There is no minimum cost, but a donation is encouraged, said Friends of Petrie Island president Al Tweddle.

The times for the sessions are still to be determined, but anyone interested in the programs or a tour can email Delle Palme at cdpalme@ connect.carleton.ca to book, or visit the Friends of Petrie Island website at www.petrieisland.org.

For adults, there is an upcoming edible wildflower walking tour on July 6 at 10:30 a.m. for a cost of $10.

Humble retiree has no plans to leave Continued from page 1

Weston said he enjoys volunteering because he gets to focus on the positive aspects of policing.

“Being with community policing, we’re trying to tell people not to get involved with the bad side of the law, be friends with the folks, this is the good side. I like to think I’ve helped people.”

Now retired from his job as a visual artist with the Department of National Defence, Weston said he was surprised to learn he was the recipient of the Ottawa police’s volunteer award, given at an annual brunch.

“He’s a very humble guy,” Tessier said. “He just goes above and beyond and never asks for anything in return.”

And 28 years down the road, he has no plans to stop.

“I’d be one of the longest (standing volunteers), but not the oldest,” he said.

“You’d be surprised – I’ve een some volunteers well into their 80s.”

Chapel Hill townhomes in limbo Traffic delays expected News - Townhomes planned for Chapel Hill were left in limbo after a planning committee meeting on June 25.

Thanks to prompting from Innes Coun. Rainer Bloess, committee members voted to restrict buildings along La Chapelle Street to threestorey single-family homes. The committee was also set to vote on a controversial plan to allow stacked townhomes of up to 12 metres high on the remainder of the former Roger Bergeron and Sons property, but councillors voted instead to throw out the rezoning recommendation without a decision.

Coun. Katherine Hobbs, a member of the committee, initially voted against approving the rezoning recommendation from city staff. In order to finalize the committee’s decision to reject the rezoning, councillors had to vote again to reject that recommendation, but Hobbs changed her vote.

She said she mistakenly voted against the staff recommendation to allow the stacked townhomes and wanted to reverse her vote.

That means it will have to come back and be dealt with at a city council meeting on July 17. A councillor will have to move a motion to ask city council to consider rezoning the balance of the property for 2.5-storey stacked townhomes.

Before the complicated vote, Bloess and representatives for the developer, Domicile, met to try to hash out an eleventh-hour compromise.

Those efforts were unsuccessful.

“In this case, I have failed … We have not been able to achieve a consensus here,” he said, adding that his motion to restrict buildings to singlefamily homes facing La Chapelle was an effort to work towards some consensus.

That move was met with some thanks from residents who lined up to speak to the committee. They were concerned that the density of a stacked-townhome development would not match the character of the surrounding neighbourhood.

Speakers at planning committee emphasized the single-family homes in the community, but the staff report to planning committee indicates there are two- and three-storey homes across from the vacant site, on Orléans Boulevard.

“The city is imposing a one size fits all standard by applying an urban standard to a suburban community,” said André Thivierge, co-chairman of the Chapel Hill residents’ committee.

Thivierge said the community is well aware of the development potential for the land and they see Domicile as a high-quality developer whose project has an opportunity to enhance the neighbourhood. But his main frustration is the perception that businesses that are out to make a profit will get to decide what’s best for a community.

Miguel Tremblay, a planner from

FoTenn Planning and Urban Design who represents Domicile, said the change to single homes along La Chapelle would “erode” the good design of the entire proposal.

He was backed up by Domicile’s planning lawyer, Alan Cohen, who noted the irony of the rezoning being considered on the same day the committee tabled the draft update to its Official Plan, which stipulates the city must grow “up, not out” to avoid sprawl.

“Failing that, you will not realize your (intensification) objectives,” Cohen told the planning committee.

Bloess agreed that the city sends a mixed message if it emphasizes urban intensification in its master policies but doesn’t back them up with zoning to ensure that type of development happens.

Other neighbours, including Denise Rousseau, were concerned about things like traffic, garbage and green space.

Although a traffic study was not required for a development of this scale, Domicile did one anyways.

The review showed that Meadowglen Drive and Orléans Boulevard could handle any extra traffic with no problems and that there would be minimal traffic impact on neighbourhood streets because the site proposed for development is on the edge of the community.

Construction on Montreal Road is expected to start at the end of July.

Work will be completed in portions, starting closer to highway 174 and working west.

Engineer Brian Harris, who was hired by the city to work on the project, said there will usually be two lanes open westbound, and one lane open eastbound.

Work that requires the westbound off-ramp to be closed will be done on weekends, and will see modifications that allow vehicles to temporarily use the bus lane to exit the highway at Montreal Road, he said.

Work within the Shefford Road intersection will also be done during off-peak hours to minimize disruption for business park users and commuters.

“Will it impact traffic? Yes, it’s construction,” Harris said.

Work along Ogilvie Road, which is expected to happen once the section along Montreal road has been completed, will see one lane eastbound and one westbound lane open.

Plans for work along Youville Drive haven’t been completed yet, and work isn’t planned to start until May 2014. It’s expected to be finished by December 2014.

Project manager Steven Courtland said there will be display boards indicating upcoming road closures, so there won’t be any surprises.

Because of the April 2011 water ban in Riverside South, Barrhaven and Manotick, residents have been understanding about the work that needs to be done, Beacon Hill-Cyrville Coun. Tim Tierney said.

In 2011, a broken water main on Woodroffe Avenue caused problems when there wasn’t sufficient water remaining for the area’s residents.

City parks and soccer fields weren’t serviced, and residents and businesses couldn’t water gardens, fill swimming pools, or wash vehicles with city water.

The existing water mains were installed in Gloucester and Orléans before they amalgamated with the city of Ottawa.

Only a few residents attended an open house at the Earl Armstrong Arena on June 24 to learn about which sections of road would be closed and the water main work.

More details will be available once plans have been made for the Youville Drive section of pipe replacement.

Information about the water main replacement is also available at http://ottawa.ca/en/orleans-watermain-link.

Getting wild at Ottawa Bluesfest for local band Brier Dodge brier.dodge@metroland.com

EMC news - The Wild Vines were thrilled to find out they’d been accepted into the Bluesfest lineup.

Getting scheduled the same night as country headliner Zac Brown Band was just the cherry on top.

The Wild Vines is made up of singers Sarah-Jean McClurg from Constance Bay and Samantha Marie Timmins of Embrun, drummer Steph Boucher from Orléans, bass player Stefan Ferraro from Buckingham and guitarist Dan Deslauriers from Nepean.

The group has played together, in different variations and combinations, for years, but became the Wild Vines two years ago.

McClurg said the group has a “country-infused” sound, and dabble in rock and soul.

“Our roots are country,” she said.

“So when we write our songs and make our arrangements, we just kind of let it go where it needs to go.”

So it was a perfect fit to find they would be playing on the Claridge Homes stage on July 5, the second night of the music festival. The Friday night show features the Zac Brown Band.

“We really look up to them as far as their harmonies,” McClurg said.

Samantha Timmins and Sarah-Jean McClurg, vocalists for the Wild Vines, will play July 5 at Bluesfest. sure.”

They found out in the winter that they were accepted to play at the Ottawa festival, but only found out

when the general lineup came out exactly where they had been slotted.

While the Wild Vines have played

a variety of shows around Ottawa, including last year’s Metcalfe Fair and the upcoming Grassroots Women’s Festival, it’s the first time at

Bluesfest.

McClurg said they prefer events where they can perform their own songs, which are all written by band members.

Music is a full-time passion for band members, all of whom have taught music at some point at the music school McClurg owns.

“We’re really involved with the kids that we teach and we hope we can mentor them,” she said.

Many of their students will be coming out to Bluesfest to see their teachers on the local stage.

In late 2012, the Wild Vines toured a little further away – throughout Europe, travelling to Holland, Germany and Italy. They will return in to even more countries next spring.

McClurg said there are a surprisingly large number of country music fans in Europe, who showed up knowing The Wild Vines lyrics and ready to sing along.

She’s hoping to get the same reception at home on the Bluesfest stage.

“It’s a venue we’ve wanted to play for a long time,” she said. “We got the notification when we were on tour and it was a huge highlight.”

OrlÊans grad selected for internship in Caribbean Ottawa man to work with farmers network News – Patrick Delle Palme travelled to St. Vincent and the Grenadines in June to work with Caribbean farmers on projects to build a sustainable future.

Delle Palme recently graduated from St. Francis Xavier University’s development studies program, and attended St. Peter High School.

Delle Palme, a resident of Orleans, was selected as one of 20 youth interns to participate in the Coady International Institute’s Youth In Partnership Program.

He left for St. Vincent and the Grenadines on June 2. “My assignment is to work with the Caribbean Farmers Network and member organizations to mobilize resources through strategic networking and collaboration among farmers,� said Delle Palme in a press release. “Through prioritizing food security, health and nutrition issues, poverty can be eliminated and the livelihoods of farmers can be improved.�

Delle Palme says he decided to apply to the program because of his passion for social justice and a desire to gain experience and utilize his skills.

The major issues facing

farmers in the area include theft of produce and cattle, lack of access to funding, lack of usable land, and the high cost of fertilizer, seeds, and pesticides.

Currently, more food is being imported than is produced.

Delle Palme also said there is a social shame attached to farming in the country, so it has been given a low priority for training and education.

Delle Palme and 19 other youth interns underwent an intensive three-week orientation session at the Coady International Institute on the campus of St. Francis Xavier University in Antigonish, Nova Scotia.

The Coady International Institute’s program gives Canadian university graduates experience working with development organizations in their ďŹ eld of study.

The program helps them increase their understanding of global development issues while contributing to the Coady Institute’s overseas partnerships.

The Coady Institute receives funding from the federal government through the Canadian International Development Agency.

Local acts make Bluesfest great

O

ttawa is spoiled for festivals each summer.

Dragon Boats hit the waters of Mooney’s Bay. Jazz drifts through downtown.

Countless other events draw people each weekend, with Canada Day leading the way.

On LeBreton Flats, blues – and an amalgam of other sounds – draws thousands of Ottawans and visitors to this city.

We’re lucky to live in a city that hosts the second largest blues festival in North America (Chicago holds top spot).

While the headline acts at Bluesfest garner the most attention, it’s local acts that make up the majority of the entertainment. They may play earlier in the day than B.B. King or the Tragically Hip, but every one of the local musicians is really what makes Bluesfest work.

Without the input of Ottawa artists, Bluesfest couldn’t fill multiple stages for the festival’s 10 days.

The payoffs from this commitment to the local community are immeasurable.

Not only does Ottawa get an economic boost as thousands of visitors arrive to take in the shows, the local musicians get a chance to share their material

with large crowds of music fans.

For the Ottawa entertainers, there’s the added bonus of getting to open a stage for national and international stars they might never have the chance to meet at any other time.

The RBC Ottawa Bluesfest always draws a few grumbles for straying from its blues roots, but the crowds that arrive each year suggest the lineups meet with mass approval. The growing list of genres that can be heard each year also means more and more local acts can try to snag an invitation to play. And every note – in some way – can be traced back to the blues, because it’s the root of almost every North American musical style.

And because Bluesfest draws such large crowds, ticket prices can often be much more affordable than an arena show by one headlining act. Once you have a ticket for that famous act, you’re also able to arrive earlier or stay later to take in everything the music fest has to offer. Including all those local acts.

If you’ve never spent a lazy Saturday or Sunday wandering between six musical stages, taking in unknown acts and finding real gems, you’ve been missing out.

Grab your lawn chair and sunscreen. And have fun right here in Ottawa.

We’ll miss having our own man in Toronto

T

oo bad Dalton McGuinty had to leave politics in such an awkward way because he actually was a pretty good premier until things started to go a bit weird toward the end.

It would be an exaggeration to say he will be impossible to replace, because his replacement seems to be doing all right so far. But in one respect, Kathleen Wynne cannot replace McGuinty.

She is not from Ottawa. McGuinty is. That meant that for the 10 years McGuinty was premier we had a premier who knew that Ottawa existed.

Knowing that Ottawa exists is not as easy as you might think. The government of Ontario resides in Toronto and Toronto is a needy place. Amplified by Toronto’s rather noisy media, the city’s needs are all too evident. To remember that Ottawa exists, it helps to be from here and come back on weekends.

On those visits, a premier can leave behind Toronto’s traffic, its urban sprawl, its overcrowded schools and understaffed hospitals and notice our traffic, our urban sprawl, our overcrowded schools and our understaffed hospitals.

No matter what is going on in the 416, the premier will be reminded of the Queensway,

Not to mention some of the things that make Ottawa unique, such as the presence of the federal government, its departments and agencies and the need to go through nine layers of government (it seems) before action can be taken on any problem.

Born and raised in Ottawa, McGuinty couldn’t help but be aware of such things.

Wynne is from Toronto. This doesn’t necessarily mean that she thinks all problems can be solved with latte. In fact, her instincts on the casino issue seem to be surer than McGuinty’s. While he was in power, it looked like we would get one downtown whether we wanted it or not. Not long after Wynne came in, the downtown casino seemed to disappear

and it began to appear that the Rideau Carleton Raceway might in fact survive.

But being from Toronto, Wynne gets overexposed to all that Toronto stuff. Lately she has been musing about improving the provincial government’s relationship with the city. “I’ve prided myself and ourselves on being able to rebuild that relationship,� Wynne said, as reported by the Globe and Mail. “It pains me that it’s not as good as it maybe has been, and I hope that we’ll be able to rebuild those relationships.�

This can hardly be seen as good news. Toronto’s municipal leadership being what it is, rebuilding those relationships is going to take most of the time the premier has available. It is also going to take a lot of money, given the rather expensive list of things Toronto needs – such as subways.

And while that is going on, the rebuilding process with Toronto, what happens to Carling Avenue and the Queensway and OC Transpo?

Not to mention light rail, which it sometimes seems we will never get.

Would it help if Ottawa had a more colourful mayor? Not meaning any disrespect to Jim Watson, but his demeanour does not demand attention, it does not cry out to the provincial government that if Ottawa does not get what

it wants he will hold his breath until it does.

Other Ontario cities have mayors that.

So maybe Watson needs to develop a few rough edges, become colourful, learn how not to keep his temper in check. As soon as he does that, he becomes a problem and a problem needs to be solved.

Right now, Watson is not a problem for Queen’s Park. That was OK when an Ottawa guy was premier. But now, Watson not being a problem means Ottawa is not a priority.

Can Jim Watson learn how to become a problem? Maybe. You should never underestimate a politician.

Don’t tell me what to do

N

o one likes to be told what to do.

Kids get annoyed by it. Adults detest

it.

And there are some, like me, who always do exactly the opposite of what we’re told.

I like to think of it as a healthy disrespect for authority. It’s the main reason I went to journalism school.

In fact, I believe queries about this should be on the journalism school application forms: “Do you have a healthy disrespect for authority?”

“No? You may be applying for the wrong program.”

“Yes? Automatic entry with full scholarship.”

So much do I hate to be told what I “should” do that I even reject the little voice of authority in my own head. I’m sure I’m not alone in this. In fact, I realized recently that others among you must have this handicap.

Capital Muse Why else are we not all sipping Evian hourly, eating loads of veggies, exercising daily and basically just doing all the things we’re told we “should” do to lead healthy lives?

Because rules are made to be broken. And I don’t know about you, but when that voice of authority speaks in my head, I just crave potato chips and dry rosé.

I started my own fitness routine in early April. After working like a dog all winter, sitting at my desk, tipping the scale and living on a steady diet of cortisol spikes, it was time to make a change.

In the first month, I forced myself to meditate on the voices of my doctor, my husband, my mom, my business coach, and even my six-year-old: “You must exercise, sleep, eat well and get outside more.”

It wasn’t working. At every moment of weakness – let’s say I was feeling too tired to work out one evening – I’d think about those authoritative voices and do something self-defeating like open a bottle of wine or take on a new magazine assignment.

To override that inner authority, rather than try to

discipline myself enough to listen to that overbearing voice, I decided to try making the inner voice my friend. (After all, healthy disrespect for authority and unhealthy tendency to give into peer pressure often go hand-in-hand).

Former church minister John Izzo writes about the importance of “mindfulness” in his book, The Five Secrets You Must Discover Before You Die. He recommends setting one goal at a time and keeping a reminder note in an obvious place like your pocket or wallet. I did this.

My note says: “Your best body.”

It’s a bit cryptic and people who do goal-setting exercises would probably criticize its vagueness. But the note is just a reminder, not the actual goal spelled out with all the blood, guts and determination it’s going to take me to achieve it.

So I carry this note around with me. And I take it out and I read it throughout the day. I’ve been doing this for eight weeks. It’s my pal.

When I need to make any one of hundreds of decisions throughout the day, I take it out and read it. What’s the result? I’m working out two hours daily, eating healthier than ever, forgoing weekday wine. And the best part is I’ve lost 16 pounds, which is four pounds away from the goal I set for September.

Skeptical? Well, here’s how being mindful works.

The other day, after waking at 5 a.m. with a baby, running around all day doing errands, cooking food and typing articles, the boys’ two-hour round trip to swimming lessons had done me in. Any thoughts of getting in a workout were out of the question. Tired, more than hungry, all I wanted to do was toss a grocery store

pizza in the oven, drink a glass of wine and go to bed.

But I happened to make a quick stop at my friend Kay’s place. She mentioned she was going to the gym after supper.

I got home and took the note out of my pocket.

I thrust the pizzas at my husband and said, “I need 30 minutes alone in the basement.” I put the TV on, stretched, got on my exercise bike and pedaled my butt off for 12 kilometres.

By the time I got upstairs, the wine was open and the pizzas cooked. My carbcraving exhaustion gone, I showered, drank about a gallon of water, and then had a single piece of pizza and some spinach and edamame salad.

Oh yeah, and a guilt-free glass of dry rosé – all because of that single, friendly voice that detests authority as much as me.

EMC news - Bad habits tend to accumulate like drops in a bucket.

They are the little things we do daily that add up and ultimately impact our overall health and wellbeing.

To reveal bad habits that are common today, and how to turn them around to make positive changes in our lives, Dr. Janet Tamo, a consulting dentist for Crest and Oral-B, plus fitness expert, Kathleen Trotter, met recently to share their thoughts.

“Inactivity throughout the day is one of the habits I see most often,” said Trotter.

“Many people drive to work, search for the closest parking

spot to the entrance door or sit in front of the TV for hours after sitting behind a desk all day. There are so many quick and easy ways to integrate activity into your day without sacrificing valuable time with family and friends.”

Trotter recommends integrating exercise into your routine with these examples: • Bike to work instead of driving.

• If it’s safe to do so, park at the end of the parking lot and walk.

• Opt to take the stairs instead of the elevator. If it’s too much, get off the elevator early and walk at least one flight.

• Do some resistance exercises with an exercise band or exercise ball while watching TV. • Schedule and commit to weekly walking dates with your family or a friend.

Dr. Tamo echoes this advice when discussing oral health habits with her patients.

The effects of bad habits can accumulate and have a negative impact on your overall health over time. By choosing to make healthier choices every day, you can feel better about your health – and have something extra to smile about.

Cardinal Creek village won’t have big-box stores, developer vows Laura Mueller laura.mueller@metroland.com

News - A developer insisted a controversial commercial district planned for a new community in Cardinal Creek won’t be big-box stores.

The new village located off highway 174 east of Trim Road won’t begin construction for another five years, but when it’s done, the 208-hectare site will become home to more than 8,000 residents and create around 950 jobs in a mixed-use centre that will feature offices, retail shops, schools and parks.

Two residents pleaded with the city’s planning committee on June 25 to prevent a commercial zone next to the Ottawa River from becoming built up with big-box stores that block the view.

Although Cumberland Community Association president Clive Horn said the residential area is “very well thought out,” he hoped the committee would do everything it could to strengthen the quality of the new village by excluding the opportunity to build big-box stores, espe-

cially on the river.

Anda Bruinsma made the same impassioned argument.

“It’s critical not to lock it in the way it is,” she said. “Box stores will come and go but this community will be here for a long time.”

But Wendy Nott, a designer working on behalf of the developer, Taggart, showed photos of traditional-looking buildings with a small-town village feel.

“The form and architectural treatment are intended to be very much in line with village character,” Nott said.

“This is not intended to be a large format, traditional development.”

Ted Phillips, a lawyer representing Taggart Group of Companies, said it is a “misnomer” to call it a commercial area. Creating an attractive development is in the company’s best interests, Phillips said.

“To think that by approving anything today we are going to devastate that area is completely inappropriate,” he said, adding that he hopes Taggart can have a “degree of trust” with community asso-

ciations moving forward.

Phillips said Taggart is committed to working with neighbouring resident groups in a voluntary design guideline process. After planning committee approved the Cardinal Creek village concept plan, Taggart sent a letter to the city promising to undertake those consultations.

“This will confirm that Taggart will agree to undertake an owner initiated design guideline process for the mixed-use area once we have completed the draft approval process … While we would apply to draft approve these lands we would not ask for zoning or site plan approval for the mixed-use lands until these guidelines are finalized.

The letter says Taggart plans to initiate zoning for the residential lands and draft plan applications on the lands north of Old Montreal Road this summer.

That satisfied east-end councillors, including Orléans Coun. Bob Monette.

“It’s one of the nicest properties left in our area,” he said. “If we’re going to do it, let’s do it right.”

City planners on a quest to define ‘character’ Laura Mueller laura.mueller@metroland.com

News - City planners are having a tough time trying to describe in enforceable language a home that doesn’t fit the neighbourhood’s character.

The city had one big win when it defended its infill design guidelines at the Ontario Municipal Board earlier this year, said city planner Elizabeth Desmarais, when the board ruled the city does have the right to regulate character.

“Most importantly, the board indicated that when we speak about neighbourhood character, what we’re really talking about is the look as we go along the street,” Desmarais told the planning committee on June 25.

But the OMB sent the city back to the drawing board on a number of issues related to how the city could enforce the rules it created to try and prevent homes from being built that are grossly incompatible with the neighbourhood.

“They said staff didn’t go far enough to prove character and patterns in established neighbourhoods,” Desmarais said. Since then, Desmarais and her fellow planners have been scrambling to document what factors contribute to creating “character” in different communities. So far, they have looked at 500 lots, but they need more time to finish up that research and write a bylaw that could legally enforce it.

“We’re dealing with new things here. We actually need to define the word ‘character,’” Desmarais said.

Staff is looking at factors such as how far back from the

The city recorded a big win at an OMB meeting earlier this year when the board ruled the city had the right to regulate a neighbourhood’s character. street the homes are built, The positioning of walkways, the elevation of the ground a home is built on top of and the location and distance between driveways, as well as the type of parking facility – pad, carport, garage, etc.

The OMB was also displeased that the city’s rules were only proposed to apply to new homes and not additions on existing homes.

The changes will be much broader than anticipated, said planning lawyer Murray Chown, who spoke to the planning committee on June 25.

In an unusual move, Chown, who is usually an advocate for developers, joined forces with Hintonburg Community Association president Jeff Leiper to ask the city to consider consulting those who may be affected by the changes.

“It may be unusual to see us together but we do have some common concerns,” Chown said. “It sounds like the department is taking that opportunity of the direction from the board to go back and totally revamp the infill design

guidelines bylaw … I don’t know whether that’s a good or bad thing.”

Chown said developers and community advocates had thought the city would entertain a “dialogue” with them while they work out the fix.

“It turns out that the fix is much bigger than any of us realized,” Chown said. “For the planners not to consult with the industry is mindboggling.”

The planning committee approved the direction staff are taking with updating the infill design guidelines to fulfill the OMB’s orders, but the work is sure to go beyond the five-month deadline the OMB set for Aug. 8.

The city’s planners and lawyers hope the OMB will provide more time if Ottawa can show it’s working hard to tackle the issues.

After city council approves the rules, the city will head back to the OMB to argue whether the city has the jurisdiction to enforce the rewritten rules and whether the guidelines represent good land-use planning.

Active thinking leads to better grades and learning in school is because, like many other school skills (such as studying, organization, and focus) active thinking is a skill that students need to be shown how to use.

Dr. Whitehead outlines three simple steps for students to follow to practice

News - All students are active thinkers by nature, but not all students know how to think actively when it comes to classroom learning or athome studying.

According to Oxford Learning’s CEO and founder, Dr. Nick Whitehead, this

their active thinking skills: • Before the activity, whether it’s doing a craft or sitting down in class, students should pause to try reflect on what they already know about what they are going to do.

This primes the brain to

get it ready learn something new.

• During the activity students should ask themselves questions to draw connections or highlight details, like “What is this similar to?”

• After the activity students can reflect on what

they just learned. This can be done by creating summary notes. Students should attempt to draw similarities, no matter how random.

Dr. Whitehead says that parents can encourage active thinking by prompting conversations about learn-

ing and by asking the right questions. Instead of asking, “how was school?”, more specific questions such as “how was math class?” or “what concepts did you learn today?” are more helpful.

Planning committee scraps payoffs for reduced parking Laura Mueller

laura.mueller@metroland.com

News - It’s better to scrap a broken policy that lets developers pay their way out of parking requirements than try

to fix it, the city’s planning committee decided.

The policy was ditched with little fanfare during a June 25 meeting, but one citizen who spoke to the committee said community asso-

ciations have a deep interest in the issue and would have rather seen a proposal to fix the policy. Daniel Mullaly from the Centretown Citizens Community Association said if the process is broken, the

egy to deal with a significant community issue.”

The CCCA and other community associations in Hintonburg, Westboro, Old Ottawa South and the Glebe discussed the need to a com-

city should fix it.

“This policy has been mismanaged for an extended period of time,” he said. “But CCCA thinks that abolishing it is not the solution … We are left without a policy or strat-

prehensive parking strategy for the city, Mullaly said.

Planning committee chairman Peter Hume, councillor for Alta Vista Ward, insisted the change doesn’t mean people will have a “free pass” to avoid providing parking.

The old policy required property owners and developers to pay a fee in exchange for a reduction in the parking they are required to provide in cases where there are restraints on the owner’s ability to provide parking. It’s only supposed to be used in cases where it is “clearly demonstrated” that the requirements would result in an over-supply of parking.

The city would ostensibly use the money to build public parking facilities, but the report notes the amount of money collected will likely never be enough to replace the total number of spaces in the communities where they are needed.

In fact, a rule that the fee could be waived for community housing developments has been extended to all applicants who make a case to planning committee that providing parking will cause them “undo hardship.” The city collects an average of $125,000 a year from the bylaw.

The new process will require relief from parking requirements to be sought through a rezoning or minor variance request.

Planning manager John Smit said those options are more robust because they require more scrutiny and they can also be appealed – something the current policy lacks.

The remaining $3.7 million in the cash-in-lieu of parking fund will likely be used to build an $8-million parking garage in the Glebe and development or redevelopment of smaller on- and off-street parking facilities.

There is still the possibility the city could create localized cash-in-lieu of parking bylaws if a local parking study recommends it.

News - The federal government hopes to have an impact on human trafficking in Ottawa.

Rona Ambrose, the federal minister responsible for the status of women announced that $200,000 would be given to Persons Against the Crime of Trafficking in Humans Ottawa at a June 24 event at city hall.

“This project will help to support the safety of women and girls in our nation’s capital,” Ambrose said.

“Our government is taking action to protect the most vulnerable women in Canadian society. We are doing this through action plans, new laws and essential women’s projects.”

Ambrose added the federal government recently launched a national action plan to combat human trafficking. To improve the safety of women and girls across Canada who are targeted for sexual exploitation.

The money will fund a two-year study that aims to prevent trafficking through education and collaboration. PACT Ottawa, along with the Ottawa police and Crime Prevention Ottawa will be working together to compile the data.

Consultations within the community will aim to find gaps in programs.

This project will help to support the safety of women and girls in our nation’s capital.

Ottawa police Insp. Uday Jaswal talks about the importance of bringing together the city’s resources to put a stop to human trafficking. The federal government announced $200,000 for Persons Against the Crime of Trafficking in Humans (PACT) Ottawa.

Gloucester-South Nepean Coun.

laid by the Ottawa police in the past and he supports the initiative because it will work with stakehold-

Insp. Uday Jaswal, who will be the lead on the project from the Ottawa police side, said it can be hard to identify trafficking victims because of under-reporting.

“I think there’s also a wealth of information in the many agencies locally that provide support for victims of human trafficking, but they don’t often get a chance to collaborate,” he said.

The project will be entitled Working Together: Engaging Communities to End Violence Against Women and Girls.

Lumière festival lineup in New Edinburgh announced Michelle Nash

michelle.nash@metroland.com

News - New Edinburgh’s annual festival of light will showcase a number of Ottawa’s visual, music, film and circus artists this year.

The New Edinburgh Community and Arts Centre announced the lineup for the 2013 Ottawa Lumière Festival on June 25.

The organization promises a three week-long festival full of activities fit for the whole family.

“Lumière is not your typical static audience experience,” said Melanie Davis, executive and creative director of the centre. “Lumière embraces all different types of artistic expression, inviting artists from all over the National Capital

Region to come together and collaborate through photography, film, performance and visual arts and create something unprecedented.”

Professional fire dancer Sophie Latreille, who will perform along-side her Mini Cirque/Fire Weavers troop for her 10th year, loves the participation and enthusiasm at the festival.

“I absolutely love the Lumière Festival,” Latreille said.

“There is a special ambiance there. It really is magical.”

The festival is presented each year by the New Edinburgh centre and celebrates creativity and light. Among the activities which will be returning this year are the lantern workshops, a photography marathon challenge, story telling, fire dancing and circus

arts.

There will also be a lantern labyrinth, which invites festival patrons can silently walk through 600 candle lanterns that will be arranged in an ancient labyrinth pattern known as the “seven circuit labyrinth,” a pattern which dates back more than 4,000 years to ancient Crete.

More than a dozen artists will perform during the Evening of Light.

Davis said the festival invites participation, exploration and celebrates everyone’s creative spirit.

“Lumière tears down the fourth wall and provides a dynamic creative experience for everyone,” she said.

The event is pay-what-youcan. For more information about the festival or to view

its full schedule please visit lumiereottawa.com.

The lineup

The line-up for the 2013 Evening of Light will feature the following Ottawa-area artists: • Canada China Art Association - Ethnic Chinese dance and traditional Chinese music

• Cultural Horizons - Indian dance, music & story-telling • Giant Seagulls • Gillian Kirkland - accordion and story-telling • Gitana Georgia and Istvan Betyar - fire and flamenco • Jean-Guy Beaudry - unicycle, juggling, fire • Maccie Paquette • Mike Essoudry’s Mash Potato Mashers - mobile

dance riot • Mini Cirque/Fire Weavers - fire spinning/hooping/acrobatics • Pirates - pirate story-telling and music • Samba Ottawa - percussion • Success Lion Dance • Whimsimole (Emily Soussana and company) - dance and music.

Mary has her first foray into milking the cows

I

’m telling you, she’s too young,” Mother said.

Father said he milked a cow the day he learned to walk. Mother said “that’s nonsense, and you know it.”

Rarely did I have so much attention sent my way and I loved every minute of it. With four siblings, rarely was I singled out, but that day I was getting my share.

The subject was if I was old enough to milk. Once a calf got to the cow stage, I lost interest in her and I had little desire to sit with my head on her belly and try to get milk into a pail. But Father said it was time I did my share like everyone else in the family. Needless to say I was never consulted as to how I felt about the issue.

And so on a Saturday, Father put a three-legged stool at the rear end of the quietest cow in the cow byre, put a pail under her and without a word of instruction told me to go ahead and milk.

The old cow turned her head in my direction and then back to chewing her cud. After watching my three brothers and sister do the milking often enough, I

MARY COOK Mary Cook’s Memories figured there wasn’t much to it. Well, I pulled and I tugged, and I spit on my hands and kept saying “sooo Bossie.”

Nothing worked.

The brothers were real pros at the job. The barn cats lined up on the other side of the gutter and every so often a squirt of milk would be headed in their direction. Without fail, the milk went right into their opened mouths. But here was I who couldn’t even get a drop of milk into the pail.

My arms ached right up to my shoulders and a couple times I almost fell off the three-legged stool. It was beyond me why the milk stool only had three legs in the first place.

To add to my misery, it was fly season and the poor old cow kept swishing her tail trying to rid herself of

the pests. With each swish, however, I took a lash square in the face.

Mother was right -- I was too young for this job. But to convince Father was another matter.

First of all, I didn’t like the cow byre. It was full of cobwebs, the cows smelled differently from the horses and I wouldn’t put it past any one of them to give me a good kick, especially when I was engaged in something as personal as tugging at her private parts.

Emerson, Everett and Earl were into the snickering and I knew it wouldn’t be long before I was into the tears.

It was my beloved sister Audrey who finally came to my rescue. She finished milking her cows, the milk had been emptied into the cans, and came over to where I was

sitting hunched over, still tugging away with absolutely not a drop to show for my efforts.

“Let me try,” she said, and I gladly surrendered the stool.

The milk spewed out on the first try with Audrey.

I blamed it on the cow. I thought I was doing exactly what my sister was doing, but it certainly wasn’t working for me. I was convinced the cow didn’t like me any more than I liked her.

Audrey tried her best to show me how to milk.

Nothing worked. Finally, she went up to Father who was at the far end of the cow byre.

“Mary’s hands are too small,” she said. “And the cow’s too big,” I offered.

Father ran his hand over my head. Even though it wasn’t near my nose, I could smell cow and milk off him, neither of which were my favourite odours. “Well, we’ll try again some other time,” he said.

I was out of the barn before you could say “milk pail.” I ran to the house and told Mother I wanted to change my clothes. She knew exactly why. I bundled up what I had on in the barn and

brought the whole pile down to the summer kitchen to wait for the Monday wash. I asked Mother for a pan of hot water and wash cloth and towel, which I hauled upstairs to the privacy of the bedroom.

I washed every square inch of my body I could reach, but I thought I could still smell the cow byre off my skin.

been warned not to bring up the subject and I knew, without a doubt, my milking days were over, but only for the time being.

Everyone had to pull their share back then and I knew the time would come when I would be led back into the cow byre and made stick at it until I could fill a milk pail like the brothers and Audrey.

The milk spewed out on the first try with Audrey. I blamed it on the cow. I thought I was doing exactly what my sister was doing, but it certainly wasn’t working for me. I was convinced the cow didn’t like me any more than I liked her.

I opened my sister Audrey’s drawer of the little wash stand we shared and took out her precious can of Lily of the Valley talcum powder and slathered it on with abandon. Then I put on clean clothes from the inside out.

When we sat down for supper, my try at milking was never mentioned.

I figured the brothers had

Not a word was spoken all during supper about how I had failed at a job that everyone worth his or her salt would be expected to do growing up on a farm long before modern milking machines did the job for you.

Even Audrey, who guarded her belongings like a mother hen guarding her chicks, never said a word about how I smelled of Lily of the Valley.

Stop investment scams in their tracks

BELLE IMAGES

Together for a cause Participants gather for the Canadian Cancer Society’s Ottawa East Relay For Life at Millennium Park on June 14.

News - We’ve all heard the saying, “if it looks too good to be true, it probably is”. But when it comes to investments, how do you know what’s too good to be true?

“Investment fraud can be devastating financially, but research also shows that it can affect your emotional and physical well-being, says Tom Hamza, president of the Investor Education Fund (IEF). “Knowing how to recognize a scam can help you protect your savings.”

Here are four signs that an investment might be a scam: • You can make a lot of money with no risk. Investments that are considered low risk typically have returns close to current Guaranteed Investment Certificate (GIC) rates.

If your expected return is higher than this, you’re taking more risk with your money.

• It’s a hot tip or insider information. If the hot tip is false, you will lose your money if you act on it. If the inside information about a public company is

true, acting on it would be illegal.

Ask yourself why someone would share this information with you, and how they might stand to benefit.

• You’re pressured to buy right away. Scammers know that if you take time to check out the details, you probably won’t fall for their scheme.

• The individual or the company are not registered to sell investments. Anyone selling securities or offering investment advice must be registered with their provincial securities regulator, unless they have an exemption. In Ontario, you can check their registration – and whether they’ve been in trouble with a securities regulator – with the Ontario Securities Commission.

“Before you invest, always take the time to do your research and get a second opinion,” says Hamza.

You can test your knowledge of fraud prevention with the Cranial Cash Clash at www.GetSmarterAboutMoney.ca.

Vanier Farmers Market cancelled for the season Michelle Nash michelle.nash@metroland.com

MICHELLE NASH/METROLAND

The Vanier Farmers Market has been canceled for the 2013 season.

“Our family purchased our vegetables from the Vanier Farmers Market almost every Saturday over the last five years,” Valiquet wrote.

“We travelled from the west end of the city to come here on weekends, because we so enjoyed seeing all of you and

the general ambiance that a market creates in a community. I have very fond memories of our market days.”

The executive director went on to say the decision was made because of the thousands of dollars in BIA subsidies each year that en-

sured the market continued.

Bands, buskers, Franko the Clown, face painters, barbecues and a petting zoo are just a few of the events the market offered each Saturday in the summer and early fall.

Smudge is patient and has a great easy-going disposition.

He wouldn’t mind sharing his household with cats and children, as long as they are cool as a cucumber, just like him. Smudge has only ever known an indoor lifestyle, and would rather not be an outdoor cat.

Smudge loves to play and would love if his new family could provide him with great toys!

Summertime and the livin’ is easy, until a heat wave strikes and the recent weather in the Ottawa area makes it difficult for furry friends to stay cool.

You may think that a backyard pool party or a trip to a local beach that allows dogs is a perfect way to beat the heat, but there are some things to think about before you dive in.

If you’re swimming with your dog, don’t get in over your head.

Many dogs will try to climb on their guardian’s head or shoulders when they tire.

Keep a close watch on dogs near pools: an untrained animal will probably head for the nearest edge of the pool to get out, but slippery pool walls do not offer an easy exit. Panic can lead to exhaustion. Barking may be difficult for a dog in the water, making it tough for them to cry for help.

Use a canine life vest or PFD. A well-fitted canine life vest is an easy way to keep your dog safe on a boat or while swimming

Hughie is a Scottish Fold, a grey tabby, whose ear cartilage is folded, giving his face an owl-like appearance Smart, sweet and laid back, Hughie is a loverboy with big round golden eyes and a soft, tiny voice which is only used for greetings and food emergencies. This fur-face is a trusting homebody and a sharer of favorite things such as live frogs and deceased field mice at the cottage. Playful, curious, he accompanies me ‘round the garden sniffing the roses, his only dispute with the evil resident squirrel. Folds are also loved for their amazing body contortions, their eccentric positions when asleep. Fur-face does this unique sitting thing called the “buddha position”. On haunches, leaning against a pillow, back legs stretched out and front paws crossed on a furry tummy, he sleeps… and everyone in the room tiptoes because we simply cannot bear to disturb this lovable wonder who chooses to live in our home.

was not able to recruit more farmers this year was simple, Valiquet said.

“Farmers told us about their flooded fields this year, their lack of staff and that they were too busy with other markets in the area,” she said.

“Our board could not justify the investment required by the BIA without a sufficient critical mass of farmers. We heard it already from our customers – they wanted more variety.”

According to Valiquet, the BIA had been supplementing the cost of running the market including tents, storage and staff.

“The last five years have cost our merchant association, the BIA, hundreds of thousands of dollars to run this not-for-profit event in Vanier,” she said.

Valiquet said the board will hold a special meeting on July 9 to discuss new oneof-events the BIA will host during the summer.

“It is the end of a chapter, but who knows, there may be other opportunities later.

Time will tell.”

in lakes and larger bodies of water. PFDs are made just for dogs and are available at many stores – including the Ottawa Humane Society’s retail store located at 245 West Hunt Club Road.

A good PFD will have flotation all around your animal’s body, not just along their backs and will be brightly coloured and have a large grab handle along the back of the jacket.

If your dog has never worn a PFD, give them time to get acquainted with it before actually getting on the boat. Get your pet used to the PFD in small steps. Start with wearing it in and around your home, then outside for short walks and finally aboard the boat. Make sure the life jacket fits properly and allow your dog to practice swimming in it.

To keep your dog from swimming too far away, use a long nylon lead. Keep a close watch to make sure your dog doesn’t get tangled in the lead. This is a great way to make sure new swimmers are relaxed and comfortable in the water.

Please note: The Ottawa Humane Society has many other companion animals available for adoption. Featured animals are adopted quickly!

News - The Vanier Farmers Market has been canceled for the 2013 season.

The decision was made June 26 by the Quartier Vanier Merchants Association’s board, citing loss of money, limited interest from residents and low farmer participation as the reasons.

The executive director of the merchants association said she wishes the business improvement area didn’t have to go through this.

“This is a sad day for Quartier Vanier,” she said.

The market opened in the summer of 2008, offering residents in the area a place on Montreal Road to purchase fresh produce.

Just last week, Valiquet discussed the 2013 famers market with Ottawa East News, when plans were still in place for the market to start up July 13.

In a letter addressed to market supporters, Valiquet expressed her disappointment and sadness about the news.

1,200 people the first year the association held the event.

“We had lots of fun and the community loved it. Our elected officials attended events and supported the market,” Valiquet wrote.

It has only been in the last two years that the market’s numbers went down and sales began to suffer.

Getting the market going this year had been difficult, starting with the market’s location; the Scotiabank parking lot was no longer going to be made available. Valiquet said the BIA worked hard to find another suitable location, acquiring the Belisle Cadillac and Chevrolet parking lot as its new site, with the BIA saying they hoped to grow the market even bigger because of the new-found space.

But it was lack of interest from farmers which was the final straw for the board, who pulled the plug because they could only confirm five farmers by June 26.

“You can’t run a farmers market with only five farmers,” Valiquet said.

getting thrown back in time. With its big band sound, the group likens itself to Motown artists and bands from the late ’50s and ’60s.

The band met through online musician wanted ads three years ago, but since then, they say they have become very close.

“We have become like a little family and being able to feed off the other members’ energy, as well as the audiences’, during our performances is definitely the best,” deValk said.

The band cites their musical influences as the classic Motown artists such as Marvin Gaye, Stevie Wonder, Gladys Knight and Sly and the Family Stone, to name a few.

The Hornettes are hoping lots of their fans come out to see them perform, but also encourage every ticket holder to check out the River Stage that afternoon. “They’re all a bit different,” deValk said of the band’s shows. “There are little mistakes, intentional change ups, and funny ‘moments’ that make every show special.

We do our best to keep things fresh by continually learning and writing new songs, too.”

The band will hit the stage at 1:30 p.m. on July 7. For more information about the group, check out their profile at ottawabluesfest.ca/lineup or go to the group’s Facebook page, facebook.com/thehornettes.

Entertainment - Fans of Motown artists, funk and rhythm and blues are in for a treat as an up-and-coming Ottawa band hits the River Stage this year at Bluesfest.

The Hornettes feature Anna Stamatova and Irina Popova on vocals, Jeff deValk on guitar, Ryan Forsberg on bass, drummer Norman Hladik, and horn players Brady Leafloor and Ed Lister.

Based mostly in the Glebe, the group performs at local pubs and bars such as Irene’s, Babylon, the Rainbow, Zaphod Beeblebrox, Maverick’s and The Ritual, but this summer the group will make the step up to the Royal Bank Bluesfest on July 7.

“We are definitely very excited,” deValk said. “We expect the best bit to be being able to hang out backstage, meet other bands and hopefully find some new fans inside and outside Ottawa.”

Although deValk has played the festival before in another band, this will be the first time The Hornettes will take the stage and the high-energy group promises a good time for all. “We try to one-up ourselves every time we play,” he said. “Energy is the one thing we strive for above

Each show is full of music, dance and fun the group said. This latest gig at Bluesfest will be rounding out the band’s busy winter and spring,

which has included sets across Ottawa and Gatineau almost every weekend, the completion of their brand new album and a performance at Jazzfest on June 29.

DeValk said the band will be tak-

Base your fitness resolution on knowledge, not numbers Lifestyle - As the calendar flips to a new year and we wave goodbye to 2012, many Canadians will use the celebration to make a personal resolution and, hopefully, wave goodbye to old habits.

When it comes to predicting the success of these personal promises, a 2012 study at the University of Scranton indicates this will be challenging for most Canadians.

The study discovered the top resolution is to lose weight and/or make a healthy self-improvement.

And, out of the 45 percent of people who make a New Year’s resolution, only eight per cent will fully accomplish it—with 39 percent of people experiencing “infrequent success.”

But that doesn’t mean you should return the workout clothes you re-

ceived for Christmas or cancel the recently purchased gym membership.

Greek philosopher Plato reminds us that “a good decision is based on knowledge and not on numbers.”

To increase the chance of triumph, three leading Canadian fitness experts share their ‘knowledge’ to help this year’s resolutions become a success story, not a number.

David Patchell-Evans, the founder and CEO of GoodLife Fitness, has 33 years’ experience helping people achieve their fitness goals.

With 750,000 members, GoodLife’s enthusiastic founder has many tips, but the first one that comes to mind: “Get friends and family onside with your resolution.

“A workout buddy serves many purposes when it comes to fitness motivation,” said Patchell-Evans.

“They provide comfort for people who might be entering a fitness club for the first time, they’re a great referee on the days when your motivation is wavering, and most importantly, they’re your cheering section when you begin to see results.”

For the 16 percent of Canadians who have already joined a gym or fitness club, their resolution may be to take their fitness routine to the next level.

Rod Macdonald, the vice president of canfitpro, the largest provider of education in the Canadian fitness industry, explains that one of the keys to success is enlisting professional help.

“Increase your support group.

Hire a personal trainer, let your favourite group exercise instructor know about your resolution, and tell

as many friends about it as possible,” Macdonald said.

Lisa Belanger, an exercise physiologist and doctoral candidate at the University of Alberta, says a third tip is to “make an emotional connection to your resolution. Keep reminding yourself the reasons for your actions to keep you going. For example, ‘I am going to the gym to stay active and keep up with my grandchildren.’

Or ‘I’m eating more vegetables to avoid getting heart disease like my mother.’

Although it is unlikely Plato was referring to New Year’s fitness resolutions, his statement offers perspective. Base your good decision to become healthier on knowledge rather than shying away because of intimidating numbers. By taking realistic steps to reach your goal, you’ll be

more likely to accomplish your resolution and defy the odds.

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!

Cancer, keep trying even if you feel as though your efforts are getting you nowhere. Eventually you will make a breakthrough, and all that hard work will pay off.

Aquarius, expect to tackle many things on your to-do list this week.

While you are feeling motivated, keep going. You may accomplish a lot more.

Pisces, sometimes you will have to make sacrifices, and this week you may find yourself putting others first. You thrive at being selfless.
