Brant Pethick gets radio play with new song Brier Dodge

brier.dodge@metroland.com

EMC news - For Orléans singer-songwriter Brant Pethick, technology was an important tool when the full-time high-tech worker was trying to record an album. He’s had to whip out his Blackberry many times to quickly record a melody or lyrics he thought of, saving the material for a later recording session. Pethick grew up in Beacon Hill and now lives in Springridge, but commutes daily to Kanata. The commute seems like nothing when compared to the endless roadtrips he made to Kitchener, Ont., in order to record the album with producer Andrew Horrocks over the course of a year.

Slipping away While several schools are not entering teams in high school leagues this fall, and the city high school football league has been cancelled, St. Matthew’s senior boys still took to the field on Sept. 27 against St. Francis Xavier. St. Matt’s, in yellow, had two games last week, with a game against rival school St. Peter on Sept. 29. Four schools are in the Tier 1 division this year, with St. Francis Xavier replacing Franco Cité. St. Mark’s rounds out the four Tier 1 schools.

EMC news - The first year, St. Peter Catholic High School’s graduating class was two students. “We did a ceremony in the atrium,” said vice-principal Kim Schreider. “Last year, grad was so big we had to have it at Earl Armstrong Arena.” With housing development around the school booming, so has enrollment over the years. Teachers Brad Davison and James Olsheskie can find themselves through their much thinner yearbooks from their time as students in St. Peter’s inaugural years. Davison and Olsheskie were both students in the early years at St. Peter; Olsheskie was there for the school’s opening day on his first day of Grade 7, and Davison came through the halls the next year. Both will be able to participate in the

Distinctive Bathrooms & Kitchens

school’s 20 year reunion activities going on over the Thanksgiving weekend. On Oct. 5, there will be various class meet-and-greets around Orléans, starting at 7 p.m. Graduates from 1993-97 will meet at Johnny Canuck’s Bar and Grill, 1998 to 2002 at Broadway Bar and Grill, 2003-06 at the Barley Mow and 2007-10 at D’Arcy McGee’s Restaurant Bar. Oct. 6 will have alumni football and basketball games, as well as a senior boys football game with current city champions St. Peter versus St. Matthew in the afternoon. The evening includes a social event at the school with live music and a barbecue. Oct. 7 there will be a special 10 a.m. mass at Divine Infant Parish to celebrate. They’ll be able to flash back to some of their favourite times at the school. Davison and Olsheskie remember black canvas backpacks, grunge and Nirvana dominating the halls of “St. Pete’s” dur-

ing their years. Participants are asked to register for Friday and Saturday events by visiting www.SPK20.com. CHANGES

St. Peter has seen changes over the years, but has always had a clear identity as a school, Schreider said. The first principal, Peter Linegar, knew how he wanted the school to be. He hand-picked his staff to develop specific programs and strong sports teams. “He was big on sports, he wanted to establish the best school possible,” Schreider said. “He wanted it a certain way.” Many of the memories listed on the class reunion website mention sports and various championships won through the years.

City website going open source Laura Mueller

EMC news - Error screens and backlogs during swimming registration on the city’s website could be a thing of the past thanks to a new platform for ottawa.ca. The city is launching the full new version of ottawa.ca on Nov. 19 and the site will be built on an open-source platform called Drupal. The

content management system is more flexible, so it will enable the city to “scale up” the capacity of the website to respond to peaks in demand, such as during online recreation registration that so often leaves frustrated parents refreshing their Internet browsers, information technology subcommittee chairman Coun. Tim Tierney said. “It’s the new gold standard,” said Tierney, the councillor for

Beacon Hill-Cyrville Ward. Since open source technology relies on a community of people to develop and share tools, Ottawa is well positioned because so many federal departments based in the city are already using Drupal. In addition to making the site more flexible and able to respond to the needs of both the city and users, the other benefits will be a reduction in licensing maintenance costs.

Tree Day for Garneau Student council and Grade 7 and 8 student representatives plant a tree in the front of Garneau high school on Sept. 26. The tree was planted for National Tree Day, and Ottawa-Orléans MP Royal Galipeau was on hand to speak to students and help plant the tree. This is the 40th anniversary for Garneau high school, so the tree was planted in honour of the school’s namesake, François-Xavier Garneau, a historian born in 1809 who worked to highlight French-Canadian history.

Celebrate Ontario grant applications open Festivals invited to apply

Hydro Ottawa also owns Chaudière Generating Station No. 4, built in 1900 and refurbished in 2005, as well as a smaller station named the Grinder Powerhouse which uses an innovative technology that is similar to a pump operating in reverse – the first time this technology has been used at a scale of 700 kilowatts or more.

THE FAMILY THAT RIDES TOGETHER TOGETHER, SAVES TOGETHER

Hydro Ottawa’s Chaudière Falls stations have a generating capacity of 17 megawatts and an annual production of about 125,000 megawatt hours of green energy. With the addition of its landfill gas-to-energy generation, Hydro Ottawa is the largest generator of green power in eastern Ontario.

Brier Dodge

brier.dodge@metroland.com

This green energy portfolio will expand with the closing of the acquisition of three more hydroelectric stations at Chaudière Falls from Domtar with a capacity of 20 megawatts. The acquisition will more than double Hydro Ottawa’s hydroelectric generating capacity, enabling the company to generate enough clean, renewable energy to meet the annual needs of 28,000 households. Another benefit of the acquisition is that the Chaudière Falls site is one of the largest remaining sites available in Ontario, with an expansion opportunity that could see Hydro Ottawa’s hydroelectric capacity grow to 60 megawatts.

EMC news - A provincial grant for festivals and events that has funded Bluesfest and Winterlude is open for applications. The Celebrate Ontario grant is open to recurring events that are running new initiatives that will increase attendance. It is also open to major one-time events in Ontario that will draw tourists to the province. Last year, Festival francoontarien was given $15,000, and the Folk Festival, Bluesfest and Winterlude were given $350,000 each. Several other Ottawa festivals were also given grants for 2012. “When we support local festivals and events, our government can make a real difference in our communities right here in Ottawa,” OttawaOrléans MPP Phil McNeely said in a press release. The Celebrate Ontario grant application is available through the Grants Ontario online portal. The deadline for 2013 grants is Nov. 20.

On September 28, Ontario’s Minister of Energy Chris Bentley visited Chaudière Generating Station No. 2, one of Hydro Ottawa’s historic hydroelectric generating stations at Chaudière Falls. The station, commissioned in 1891 and refurbished and fully automated in 2001, is a heritage-designated building that is Canada’s oldest fully-functional run-of-theriver hydroelectric facility. Minister Bentley was accompanied by Pierre Richard, Chairman, Hydro Ottawa Holding Inc. and Hydro Ottawa Limited; and Bryce Conrad, President and CEO, Hydro Ottawa Holding Inc.

Positive message to the music

Hall access improved EMC news - The Cumberland Lions Club is pleased to announce the completion of a new barrier-free access ramp and automatic door opener at the rear of the Maple Hall. The Lions, with substantial funding from Trillium, installed a barrier free washroom in the hall in 2010. This improved delivery of services to people with mobility disabilities and created increased physical access inside the building and made better use of the interior. Following consultation with a local contractor, the Lions had a plan prepared by an architectural draftsperson that provided a ramp at the rear of

the hall. It also gave the Lions an opportunity to create one or two handicapped parking spaces near the new ramp. The availability of these spaces has since been posted at the front of the Hall where there is street parking only. This project was made possible with grants received from the rural community building grant program at the city, the Cumberland Community Association and the Lions Trillium grant surplus. Lions members, particularly past-president Gordon Kerluke and local welder Mike Scott devoted extensive volunteer hours.

“The cool thing is you get away from life and you’re just immersed in music,” he said of his trips south to focus on the album, which lasted two to four days. Horrocks is known as a gospel producer, but Pethick said he wouldn’t label his album as a Christian rock album, though it has received airtime on radio station CHRI. “It’s pop-rock,” he said. “Lyrically it’s positive messaging so the Christian community has liked it. It has some spiritual elements to it.” He said he fits into the same genre as Chris Tomlin, Simple Plan and the Sidewalk Prophets. The album is called Awake because the lyrics were written to awake listeners to spirituality, life and encourage them to seize the day, Pethick said. “It’s allowed me to express my emotions and my life experiences through music,” he said. He got his start as a drummer and backup singer for Ottawa band On the Edge when he was in his late 20s. He’s been writing music ever since, and in 2007 he released his first solo album, A New Day. Over the last five years, he’s played local shows such

Brant Pethick, an Orléans singer-songwriter, recently released his second album, entitled Awake. as Petrie Island’s Canada Day celebration, and at charity events he finds meaningful. He spent two years writing and one year recording Awake, which he quietly released in front of about 20 family members and friends at his home, with an official release party still to come. It was different this time around, as Pethick self-pro-

duced his first album. “This time I focused on songwriting and singing, which are my strengths,” he said. So far, the single Only You has already been played on CHRI in Ottawa and he hopes more radio stations will follow. “It’s the energy of the music and the emotion of the lyr-

ics,” he said of why he chose it as his lead single. “It’s about believing in a relationship, investing in it.” Pethick will be performing on Nov. 3 at the Shenkman Arts Centre as a part of the Do More Canada Showcase. The full album is also now available on iTunes for purchase. For more information, visit www.BrantPethick.com.

Back to school: from students to teachers St. Peter has a long list of citywide titles over the years, too many to quickly rhyme off, but specifically in football. “Football has always been a pretty proud tradition,” said Davison, who can still remember plays from the Grade 7 and 8 football championship in his early years at the school. St. Peter has had several alumni go on to notable athletic accomplishments. Recently Cody Ceci was named captain of the Ottawa 67’s and drafted by the Ottawa Senators. Courtnay Pilypaitis represented Canada this year at the Olympic Games in basketball. Singer Keisha Chanté lists St. Peter as home, as did hockey players Anthony Stewart and Jonathan Matsumoto. Local councillor Stephen Blais is also a St. Peter graduate, and Schreider believes the list of famous graduates will continue to grow – the oldest graduates of the school haven’t hit 40 yet. The school hasn’t just focused on sports and has worked to build strong arts and musical theatre programs, including a new high skills major launched this year. Schreider said the school has a history of academic excellence they’ve worked hard to build. The physical school building has grown over the years as well. In 2002, almost every student had to travel to the portable classrooms behind the school to accommodate the overflow, soon after a new, three-storey wing was built with an extra 24 classrooms. The development in Or-

léans shows as well – the school used to back onto a large area of forest, now homes. Olsheskie can remember playing capture the flag in the back forest during gym class, unable to have a clear out of bounds zone because of it’s sheer size. Now with 1,840 students – the largest Catholic school in Ottawa – St. Peter has three vice-principals and is on its sixth principal. After Linegar, Brent Wilson took the reigns, followed by Anne-Marie McGillis, John Karam, Sue Arbour, and now Norma McDonald. One of the biggest changes the teachers have seen since their days as students come in the form of technology. The school now has Smartboards – a big step up from the markers and overhead projectors of the past. “It was a big deal when the school got dial-up internet,” Davison said. COMING BACK

Olsheskie now teaches science at the school, alongside his high school sweetheart – another St. Peter graduate currently on maternity leave. He started teaching in 2004, and came on staff fulltime in February 2005. Olsheskie said he was happy to return to the school because of traditions and community connections like the Canley Cup food drive. “I was nervous about working with teachers I had,” he said about first joining the staff. Davison, who teaches history and physical education, can remember his first day back at his school as well. “Do I go into the staff room and say, “Hello, sir?’”

BRIER DODGE/METROLAND

Brad Davison, left, and James Olsheskie, are both teachers who were students at St. Peter Catholic High School in its early years. In the first year, Olsheskie was in Grade 7, and Davison started in Grade 7 the following year. The two check out yearbooks from some of their early years, having a few laughs over graduation photos and growth spurts. he wondered. Davison wanted to teach St. Peter physical education classes since he was a student in the school himself, and did a teaching placement at the school while a student. “Ever since I was in Grade 10, I aspired to teach, and to teach here,” he said. “The community is tight-knit, and that’s something I never lost sight of.”

Watsonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s casino wager the right call

espite the ethical hand-wringing that will inevitably accompany the mayorâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s announcement last week that Ottawa will entertain any proposals from the Ontario Lottery and Gaming Corporation to build a casino in the city, it is the right way to move forward on this issue. Casinos have been a reality in Ontario since 1994, in the capital region since 1996 and there have been slot machines at the Rideau Carleton Race-

way since 2000, meaning residents of this city have had plenty of opportunity to gamble for more than a decade. Getting squeamish about gambling at this point is a little naive â&#x20AC;&#x201C; gaming arrived in Ontario nearly 20 years ago. What is at issue is not if Ottawa will allow a casino, but where. Currently, gamblers travel to Gatineau or to the racetrack to place their bets. In the near future, OLG will close the slots at Rideau

Carleton, meaning any money made from gambling will leave the city, as will the jobs associated with the operation of the slots. It would be irresponsible for either Mayor Jim Watson or council to let this happen. As Watson said last week, â&#x20AC;&#x153;every Ottawa dollar spent at the Gatineau casino is a dollar lost for Ottawa taxpayers â&#x20AC;&#x201C; it is time that we repatriate that money.â&#x20AC;? What is at stake is whether Ottawa will allow jobs, gambling revenue and

associated tourist dollars to stay in our city or leave for good. The mayor indicated any revenue generated for the city by a casino will be spent on infrastructure renewal, job creation and economic development, all areas that will be moving to the forefront of the cityâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s agenda in the coming years. But gambling revenues wonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t be the only way building a casino could benefit the city. As the federal govern-

ment sheds jobs, new sources of employment will be vital to Ottawa. If one of those sources of new jobs is a casino, so be it. It wouldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t just be a casino, however, as other hospitality businesses would benefit from a casinoâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s presence, as would the more established Ottawa tourism industry. In order to ensure a casino is successful, the city will need to be brave enough to approve a location that ensures its success. This would likely involve a central location close to existing hotels and transit. To place it on the outskirts of the city would only deter tourists and serve

to limit the casinoâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s capacity to benefit the city, making the whole exercise a waste of public time and resources. Does all this mean the city and the province would not have a responsibility to educate residents about problem gambling or support those who have an addiction? Of course not - and it would only be appropriate that some portion of gambling revenue be directed towards expanding and improving those efforts. Gambling is nothing new to the Ottawa region and by firmly putting his support behind any future OLG casino proposal Watson has placed a good bet on the cityâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s future.

Life after the record storeâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s demise CHARLES GORDON Funny Town

hese days, when you lament for the past you are not looking all that far back. Change happens so quickly that the latest thing becomes the previous thing in no time flat. DVD players came about 15 years ago. Five years after that they became dominant and people stopped renting videotapes. Now itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s next to impossible to rent a DVD. Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s fast. And donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t bet the mortgage on the next thing lasting all that long either. Think of how long radio was dominant before television took over. Think of how long phonograph records lasted before CDs came along. Decades and decades. Now within a single decade we see new systems emerge, disappear and be replaced by others which then disappear too. If you feel too lazy to try to keep up, join the club. Last week Sam Sniderman died at 92. He was the founder of the record store Sam the Record Man. Located on Yonge Street in Toronto it was the place to go for fans of all kinds of music, especially the less popular kinds. Eventually there were more than 100 Samâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s across Canada, including several here. There was a pretty good one at Carlingwood and a really good one at Bayshore, with the jazz and classical music in a special glassed-in section of the store. Anywhere in Canada, if you wanted a wide selection of classical music or jazz or folk music, Samâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s was where you went. Where do you go now? You go online. And who is there? No one, except you. Some of the comment on the death of Sam has stressed that point - that there was always someone knowl-

edgeable around the store to consult if you wanted to know about the latest Miles Davis reissue. But, actually, there is no shortage of opinion available today, expert and otherwise. If you want to buy the latest Miles reissue you can scan the web and find out what everyone thinks about it. You can probably sample a track. Even though there is no one to talk to in a store, you can find what you need to know. So itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not the absence of expertise that makes the passing of the record (later CD) store lamentable. Nor is it that there is less music available. There is more. Those of us who grew up desperately searching for jazz in small-town record stores and on the radio find ourselves facing riches beyond belief on the Internet. So why do we miss the record store? Why, for that matter, will we miss the book store. There is no shortage of ways to get books online and no shortage of books either. Maybe itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s because we feel we are at the mercy of technology. A record (or a CD) is a tangible thing. It is always there. Music on the Internet depends on your Internet connection; music on your computer depends on your hard drive not packing it in. It feels tenuous and temporary. Not to everyone, of course. It is not unusual to find people whose entire music collection is stored on a device smaller than, say, a DVD box. Their total embrace of the new technology is what has sparked the tremendous growth in online music and the death of the record store. To be fair, the record, or CD store, still exists. They are fewer and often drastically scaled-down. But a few stores, like Compact Music and CD Warehouse in Ottawa, are still fighting the good fight. In response to Sam Snidermanâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s death, there has been comment on the feeling of community in the store and the loss of that community since it closed. There is, of course, a new community â&#x20AC;&#x201C; it is online and it will take some getting used to. When Marshall McLuhan talked about the â&#x20AC;&#x153;global village,â&#x20AC;? he didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t know the villagers would be solitary people at their computer screens.

Nifty Fifty Plus group mixing it up in Navan Brier Dodge

brier.dodge@metroland.com

EMC news - Juanita Vetter said she hated seeing space at the Navan Memorial Centre and Arena sit quiet and empty week after week, while older adults in the community had nowhere within walking distance to meet. The upstairs community room has been getting a weekly infusion of energy this month, as the new Nifty Fifty Plus group took over from 12:30 to 4 p.m. every Wednesday. Vetter is the chairperson of the group, which falls under the Navan Community Association’s umbrella. The drop-in has various activities, with several board games, chess and cards set up for members to use. There’s also a “knotty knitters” station set up, where Vera Cotton can usually be found with her yarn and knitting needles, and Sheila Minigue-Calver’s Coffee Café with a coffee machine she donated. The group came together, with various members donating skills or items to get the group started. The only major roadblock to the group’s idea was the facility rental fee, Vetter said. With a $5 annual membership to the Navan Community Association and $20 annual fee for the group, there weren’t additional funds to secure the space. Cumberland Coun. Stephen Blais stepped in and paid for the hall rental for the first year, allowing the group to launch and grow their membership base. By the fourth week, the group was already up to 40 members, with hopes to grow even larger – potentially even ex-

Vetter said the group is necessary in the community because not all seniors are still comfortable driving, or would prefer to walk to see their friends. There are no nearby places where they can go to sit and have a coffee or play cards, so this fills a void. “It’s a place where seniors can socialize and have fun,” she said. “Nothing’s

open in the village for coffee.” Starting in October, the first drop-in session of the month will include an optional lunch, using local village caterers as much as possible. “Navan is a village that knows how to get things done,” said Blais. “I am pleased that seniors from the surrounding area will have another great option to stay active in their community.”

Young at Heart keeps exercise flexible for participants Brier Dodge brier.dodge@metroland.com

The Orléans EMC is profiling local fitness classes at a variety of local fitness centres through the fall. EMC news - Orléans fitness

instructor Nancy Scullion threw on some ’50s tunes and grabbed some dumbbells. It’s her way of launching into the Young at Heart class she teaches at the Ruddy Family YMCA in Orléans. The class fits into the University of Ottawa’s certified

Heart Wise program. Heart Wise classes are geared towards both people with no health issues who want to maintain cardiac health and those who are dealing with heart-related problems. All offer options to increase or reduce intensity.

For Scullion, this means pushups can be done from the toes, from the knees or against the wall, and every exercise can be done with a weight that suits the participant. Usually in fitness classes using weights, I’m used to hearing a recommended weight for each exercise. Scullion instead suggests when to go a bit heavier or a bit lighter, but doesn’t put a total on weights, letting participants pick what works best for them. After our warmup track, we went right into squats. While I used a bar with weight and did a full squat, many of the 20 participants in the class used lighter dumbbells and did smaller, modified squats. We went through the major muscle groups, including biceps, triceps, legs, back and core. Scullion wore a microphone throughout the class and gave us tips on each exercise before we did it to make sure everyone had proper form and wouldn’t get injured. While the class can be geared towards any age group, in my 20s, I was the youngest participant. The demographic is primarily older adults who are relatively fit but are looking for a similar group to exercise with, and a class with some options. The class was a healthy

The Heart Wise classes are designed to work around injuries, so modifications are available. Because of several participants with shoulder injuries, Scullion limits the amount of overhead lifting that is done, instead strengthening the shoulders using other exercises. Because you can add more weight to increase the intensity, it’s also a good class for adults looking to stay fit without the pressure of someone

lifting half their body weight standing next to them. The class had become a tight-knit group, said Christine Eckhardt, regional director at the YMCA. Many do several of the Young at Heart classes throughout the week, motivating each other to keep up with their fitness routine. The YMCA in Orléans offers three Heart Wise classes including Young at Heart, which is offered several times in the week. The total muscle conditioning class I attended is Monday at 11 a.m. Young at Heart Cyclefit is on Tuesday and Thursday mornings, Young at Heart interval training on Wednesday mornings, and Young at Heart cardio combat on Friday mornings. There is also a Heart Wise aqua vitality class, which is a gentle workout for older adults who are new to water fitness or recovering from injuries. There are Heart Wise certified classes in the east end at Beacon Hill North Community centre, Bob MacQuarrie Recreation Complex, Cyrville Community Centre, Ray Friel Recreation Complex and the St. Laurent Complex, but the Young at Heart classes are a YMCA program. The class is included with memberships, which cost $45 a month for adults, less for youth, students, seniors and families.

There’s always plenty to be thankful for this time of year

so long ago? Let me turn back the clock and take you back to a more gentle time, as I recall with thankfulness lessons learned and a way of life that was more safe and secure. I will be forever grateful that I lived in a time when it was perfectly safe to walk five kilometres of back country roads to a school without fear. Even in the cities so far away children felt secure and a mother’s warning was not to be wary of strangers, but rather to keep out of the ditches of water so that we wouldn’t catch our deaths of cold.

very day back in the ’30s, according to Mother, was a day of thanksgiving. Looking back, there was indeed much to be thankful for. And as Thanksgiving is upon us, perhaps it is appropriate that those things we took for granted so many years ago, should be remembered. So what are some of the memories of those Depression years that have lasted through the decades? Those that in recalling them have me wondering what has happened to what we took for granted

��

I am thankful I lived in an era where the owner of the general store trusted his customers. Where you filled your own bag of cookies, put it on the scale yourself and had the cost added to your mother’s bill which hung on a nail behind the counter. And if you didn’t have the money to pay for your groceries, you could offer a trade. Sometimes weeks would go by and no money changed hands. It was a time when a young child was taught that honesty was all a part of doing business. I am thankful today that I grew up in an era where a deal was made with the simple shake of a hand and it was binding. It didn’t take a lawyer to draw up papers to trade a couple head of cattle for an old Model T or a load of hay or to exchange a steer or a few loads of gravel for

MARY COOK Mary Cook’s Memories your first car. Today, I am thankful I grew up in a home where there wasn’t a lot of money for frivolities. It was a time when we children made our own fun. Toys from a piece of whittled wood, playthings like empty spools of thread, a button box and Eaton’s catalogue, all filling hours of fun and not costing a penny. I am thankful today that because we lived in a house overflowing with aunts and uncles, cousins, and grandparents, I learned at an early age what it meant to be tolerant.

I was taught that it was more blessed to give than receive. In giving up our bed for an elderly aunt, Mother reminded us how the aunt enriched our lives with her stories, her hand-knitted mitts, and pans of Johnny Cake, the best I have ever tasted. Today, I am thankful we had a wonderful doctor who would drive out from Renfrew, plowing through snow and blinding rain and whose only pay might be a dressed chicken or a couple dozen eggs and some fresh butter. I remember him sitting by

the bed of a very sick little girl until the dawn crept into my bedroom window and my fever broke. I am thankful today that I grew up in a home where every child had a special worth. Where even the youngest was made to feel important and daily chores, done to a parent’s satisfaction, was all part of growing up. We were taught that it was all right to fail, and that from each failure came a lesson. This is the legacy handed down to us by a generation of people who, although never rich in material wealth, were rich in the things that mattered. This is the time to be thankful for that era that made us what we are today and to be truly thankful for all the blessings we enjoy today living in a free and bountiful country. May each of you have a happy Thanksgiving.

n one of our visits to Jeff’s parents, his mother and I went shopping in the local supermarket. In the bakery section, we came across a loaf of bread called a chop suey loaf. We could see that it contained fruit, not Chinese vegetables, and decided to give it a try. With a soft texture and bits of candied fruit scattered through each slice, it was delicious, plain or toasted. After some experimenting when I got home, I came up with a similar loaf that I could make in my bread machine. To make this, use the diced candied fruit that you use in holiday baking. The recipe calls for skim milk powder and water. In some recipes, you can substitute milk for the dry milk powder, but not in this one. Milk makes the loaf dense, while the skim milk powder gives a much lighter texture. Chop Suey Loaf

• 3/4 cup water • 1/4 cup skim milk powder • 1 egg • 1 tsp. salt • 1 tbsp. white sugar • 2 tbsp. butter or margarine, at

PAT TREW Food ‘n’ Stuff room temperature • 2 1/3 cups flour • 1 cup candied fruit • 1/4 cup raisins • 1 1/4 tsp. bread machine yeast Before you start, measure the candied fruit into a sieve and rinse it under cold water to remove excess sugar or syrup. Spread the fruit on two sheets of paper towel and blot up as much of the water as you can. Set aside. If your machine has an “extras” option allowing the user to add fruit or nuts automatically, measure the raisins into that section. If it doesn’t, you will have to add the raisins later. Place the water, milk powder, egg, salt, sugar and butter in the bread machine pan in that order. After measuring the flour, use about two tablespoons of it to lightly dust the candied fruit.

Place the remaining flour in the bread pan and then add the floured fruit. Leave a small area free of fruit, and measure the yeast into that spot – you don’t want the yeast sticking to the fruit and not mixing into the batter. Set the bread machine for the “sweet” cycle or on some machines it’s called the “fruit and nut” cycle. If it has the automatic “extras” feature, press the “extras” button. Don’t use the “delay” cycle. This recipe makes a 1.5pound loaf. If your bread machine has a setting for different loaf sizes, press the one for this size. Start the machine. If your machine doesn’t have the “extras” feature, it will beep when it is time to add extras. Add the raisins and let the machine continue until the bread is done. Remove the loaf from the pan and let it cool for an hour before serving.

R0011645959

EMC news - For Chelsea Lambert, Green Day isn’t just a band to look for in on iTunes. “Green Day, it’s not just the band, it’s not just the music,” she said. “It’s like everything that is important to me is in that band.” The Grade 12 Cairine Wilson Secondary School student is currently displaying seven works of art at the Cumberland branch of the Ottawa library, several of which are based on Green Day and their songs. “The lyrics are very important to me,” she said. One of her works, Better Thank Your

Lucky Stars, incorporates the lyrics into the piece. The pieces include mixed media and pencil. The piece Midnight was produced with ink Lambert made by grinding pigmented blocks on stone. Her exhibit is a part of the Young at Art program, an awards program for Ottawa high school students. She first started participating in 2010, and the exhibit is a collection of her work since then.

placement classes, so art is a hobby for weekends and holidays. She hopes to become a nurse practitioner after graduating from Cairine Wilson and said art is only thing she does that isn’t science based. Even one of her first art works was based on science; an artistic depiction of atoms colliding on canvas. Besides the works about Green Day, she also has a monochromatic painting of Jon Montgomery, a gold medal winner in the 2010 Olympics. She hopes to expand her work with Green Day as she is producing an intricate chain link fence piece using the band’s lyrics. She’ll be able to draw some inspiration in January, as she’ll see her first ever live Green Day show in Montreal. The library is happy to have the wall space in the teen section of the library filled. “We are extremely proud to be able to feature local teens’ artistic talents on our walls,” said Christine Chevalier, teen services librarian at the branch. “The teen space of the library has been specifically designed for the teens in our community, so what better place for teen art.” Lambert’s art will be on display until Nov. 15.

National Tree Day gets youth into the great outdoors Brier Dodge

brier.dodge@metroland.com

EMC news - Elementary school children spent the day at Andrew Haydon Park on Sept. 25 to celebrate the second annual National Tree Day. Tree Canada put on a day of events and tree planting for students from D. Aubrey Moodie Intermediate School and Featherston Drive Public School. The students learned how to properly plant a tree to make sure it would grow strong roots and properly mature. “With everything trees provide us, it’s important we make plans to sustain them,” Tree Canada president Michael Rosen told the students. “By taking part in tree planting events like this, we help make sure there will be trees for future generations.” The students also met the Tree Amigos: Penny Pine, Re Spruce and

Sophie Cedar, and had their photos taken with them. Last March, Ottawa-Orléans MPP Royal Galipeau’s motion proclaimed the Wednesday in the last full week in September as National Tree Day. He said he worked with Tree Canada and Rosen, who sent a letter to every MP last year, asking for support for the day. “Trees make life worth living,” Galipeau told students. “They reduce energy costs, prevent water run-off, keep our waterways clean and purify our air.” National Tree Day falls within National Forest Week, which is promoted by the Canadian Institute of Forestry. “Trees and forests are an important part of our heritage,” Galipeau said. “They are, and always have been, essential to our well-being, our economy and even our identity as a nation. The whole world recognizes the maple leaf that’s on our flag.”

Orléans MP calls for better nutrition for youth Brier Dodge

Police warn of distraction thefts

to create programs to encourage healthy eating habits. “If you’re tempted to get a soda, get a juice. If you’re tempted to get a juice, get a water,” he said. “We’re asking you to make a choice today that will have an impact in 20 years.” The motion calls for a framework for action from the Curbing Childhood Obesity report. The programs will hopefully be ready to start before Christmas, and will launch in elementary schools while the secondary material is developed. Orléans will be the first place in Canada to get the programs in schools. “The young people in Orléans will be the healthiest in the country,” Galipeau said.

EMC news - In response to an obesity epidemic, the Ottawa-Orléans MP Royal Galipeau has introduced a motion to promote healthy eating habits for youth. The motion, proposed in February, was passed on Sept. 19. Galipeau said that more than one in four children in Canada are overweight or obese. “The rate of obesity in children and young people has almost tripled in the past 25 years,” he said.

The suspects have used the following four tactics, which have also been observed in other municipalities in Ontario. • Street distraction is when the victim is approached by a suspect, usually in shopping areas, often by a female

tion is when suspects position themselves behind a shopper at a cash checkout and memorize the victim’s PIN. They then follow the victim outside and distract them while a second suspect steals their wallet. • Store distraction is when a store employee is distracted by a member of the group while a female suspect conceals retail goods under a long flowing skirt, then leaves the store. Anyone with any information regarding these incidents is asked to contact the Ottawa police east district investigation section at 613-236-1222, ext.3566 or Crime Stoppers at 613-233-8477 (TIPS).

The suspect places a gold-coloured necklace over the victim’s neck and quickly removes the victim’s own gold necklace. The victim may not realize the theft has occurred until later. • Family in need distraction is when suspects approach a victim and give a sympathetic story about a family member being in need.

Eliminating the ‘lifer’ mentality

t’s not an easy time to be a public servant. In Ontario, slightly more than half of teachers are locked in battle with the government. At the federal level, departments continue to implement broad and deep cuts to meet the Conservative party’s 2012 budget targets. On top of the internal strife, government workers must also deflect the near daily onslaught of criticism from the public and the media, which tend to portray them as greedy, lazy, and spoiled. There’s a widely-held perception, after all, that the public service is where talent and innovation go to die. Once people sign on, they’re there for life. No need to work hard. Push some paper. Organize a conference call now and again. Then you can just kick back and enjoy the ride – or, in this case, a lucrative benefit package. The sad thing is, as with most stereotypes, there’s some truth to this perception. It’s not surprising, really. The federal government employs a quarter of a million people, the largest employer in the country. The hiring process alone is a cumbersome and lengthy affair, often taking more than six months to fill even an entry-level position. There are written tests followed by a series of interviews by committee, where mechanical human resources officers tick off horribly detailed boxes designed to fit existing job descriptions. But if the hiring process is archaic, the firing process is positively draconian. In the private sector, you get a pink slip, maybe a package and someone walks you out the door, ideally with some kind of career transition counselling. In government, you get a notice that maybe, possibly, perhaps you’re going to lose your job at some point between now and six months from now. You have the option to take a package or a retraining amount and leave. But if you want to stay employed you, and, say, 15 others who’ve received the same notice, are going to have to compete for a handful of positions. Imagine what this does to morale which is already in the toilet. The department affected goes into a tailspin. People’s reactions range from “the devil may care,” to panic-stricken. Whatever the response, it’s hard to go to work without looking at your colleagues sideways. Most of those whose positions may be affected have a tendency to reduce their efforts to the bare minimum. Part of the problem, and what causes much of the panic, is that people don’t have a Plan B, says Moira Hutchison, a life strategy mentor and coach. “When people work in the government, they feel like they’re set for life,” says Hutchison, owner of Wellness with Moira. “They have the pension and the health benefits. They may not even like

BRYNNA LESLIE Capital Muse their jobs, but they become so panic-stricken because the idea they had of safety and security has been stripped away from them. They are stuck.” For the last 10 years, Hutchison has been connecting clients with a number of self-help methods – ranging from hypnosis to selfaffirmation and coaching -- designed to help them get “unstuck”. “People forget what motivated them to get into these jobs in the first place,”

explains Hutchison. “When the cuts come, they get frozen into this worst-case scenario kind of thinking. But before they hit a crisis, they need to be tapping into resources to make sure they have the tools for self-care, and are equipped to handle these things when they see it coming rather than waiting until the crisis hits.” Hutchison adds that, with so many layoffs occurring at once, people would be well-served to tap into their entrepreneurial skills, think-

ing about ways to turn their passions into money-making ventures. “People aren’t going to be able to just go and work at Tim Horton’s,” says Hutchison. “They require jobs of equal calibre to what they’re doing now. But these jobs don’t exist, so they are going to have to create one for themselves.” She says everyone in government – regardless of whether their jobs are imminently affected or not – would be well-served to escape from the mindset that they are “lifers” in the government. A little innovation and entrepreneurship within their jobs could make them a lot happier and more productive, and it may just help them minimize that nasty public perception.

China disabled people’s performing arts troupe By Michael Crabb

Becoming a skilled professional-level dancer is no cakewalk. Apart from talent, it takes incredible discipline and years of training. Imagine, then, how much more challenging it is if you’re deaf, unable to hear the music that dancers normally rely on to guide their moves. Yet the hearing-impaired dancers of the China Disabled People’s Performing Arts Troupe (CDPPAT), who make their Ottawa debut October 14 at the National Arts Centre, have defied the odds, proving that if you have a dream and the unswerving will to pursue it, there’s little that can stop you. The Beijing-based troupe also features blind musicians and, depending on the company roster from season to season, performers with severe physical handicaps. The troupe’s members, however, don’t speak of handicaps. They’re focused on presenting what by any standard is a spectacular, entertaining show. The varied two-hour program, entitled My Dream, includes dance and music in a range of styles, from classic to contemporary. There’s the troupe’s precision-perfect Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva (Thousand Hands Dance)— you can check it out on YouTube—through comic Peking Opera-style scenes, jazz sets and Latin dancing, to a ravishing classical ballet solo with the dancer in traditional tutu and toes shoes. The troupe was established in 1987 as a program of the China Disabled People’s Association by a former civil

servant, Liu Xiaocheng. Initially amateur and part-time, it was soon touring internationally. CDPPAT became a compelling advocate for the cause of disabled people’s special abilities. By 2002, with a wellestablished repertoire and high level of training, became an independent, fulltime professional organization.

Tai’s work ethic permeates the organization. Younger troupe members attend academic classes at a nearby school for the disabled, then return to company headquarters for training classes and rehearsals. After supper—they eat in their own cafeteria, the deaf students guiding the blind ones—they’re back to

Liu Xiaocheng, now in his late sixties, currently holds the title of “Advisor,” but if you visit the CDPPAT’s Beijing headquarters you’ll soon learn that he’s still very much involved. Liu even lives in a small apartment on the premises, as do supervisory staff and younger troupe members—in somewhat Spartan dorms. Liu views the troupe as family. “I have more than eighty grandchildren,” he declares enthusiastically. Day-to-day running of the company is handled by Liu’s protégée, artistic director Tai Lihua and her team of support staff. Tai arrived in the troupe as a dancer, became its star and continues to perform, as she will in Ottawa, when her busy schedule permits. Through her example of hard work and dedication, Tai is an inspiration for younger troupe members.

work for more rehearsal or, for many of the deaf members, attending speech rehabilitation classes. But just how do deaf dancers learn to perform without hearing the music? If the music follows a regular rhythmic pattern they internalize the beats, stamped out for them loudly on the studio floor by an instructor. In performance, they follow “conductors” standing on stage who convey the music’s tempo, rhythm and phrasing through arm and hand gestures. As one of them explains: “I am their visual music.” Even so, watching My Dream, it’s easy to forget that these amazing young performers have never heard a note.

HELP PROTECT CHILDREN IN OUR COMMUNITY October is Child Abuse and Neglect Prevention Month More than 47% of adults in Ontario have been exposed to or know someone who is the victim of child abuse and neglect. In Ottawa alone, only 42% of residents claim to know how to report abuse directly to the CAS. These numbers suggest there are far too many vulnerable children and youth, without a voice, in our community. During Child Abuse and Neglect Prevention Month, through a variety of media outlets and social media tools, it is the Children’s Aid Society of Ottawa’s mission to educate the public about the prevention of abuse. “People feel it’s hard to infringe on parental rights, and they’re naturally hesitant to involve themselves,” says Barbara MacKinnon, Executive Director of the Children’s Aid Society of Ottawa. “When reporting to CAS, it doesn’t mean we are going to remove a child from their home. It is about assessing the situation and discovering whether the family may benefit from support services.” Signs may not always be obvious in a child who has been abused or neglected. This is why it is our responsibility, as a community, to stay informed of the signs of abuse and learn when and who to call to help a child. “If your gut tells you that something’s wrong, then it probably is,” continues MacKinnon. Not all calls received by CAS result in an investigation, and only an extremely small percentage of investigations require that a child or youth be removed from the family home. Most often, the intervention involves simply connecting the family to services within the community. Last year, in more than 90 per cent of cases where CAS became involved, work was done with the family and the child stayed home. To learn more about the warning signs of abuse, visit useyourvoice.ca. Get involved and help protect children in our community. If you suspect child abuse or neglect call 613-747-7800, 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. R0011647598-1004

Orléans woman credits first aid training for life-saving efforts Brier Dodge

brier.dodge@metroland.com

EMC news - An Orléans woman got a good deed paid forward when a local company agreed to recertify her first aid training for free after she told them about her life-saving efforts only days earlier. Linda Verreault, who lives in Charlemagne village, was contacted by the Community CPR

“He could have had permanent brain damage, or would have died.”

Ever wonder what happens after dark?

Linda Verreault,

and Prevention Project to see about recertifying her skills, but told the company that the cost was too steep. “I simply don’t have the money right now,” she said she told the representative on the phone. Verreault, who works with children and adults with various disabilities and has used her first aid training while at work, is currently working part-time. But after she told the rep she had used skills she learned in a previous CPR certification course to help save a child’s life just days earlier, the rep tried to see what could be done. Verreault then got a call saying the company would let her take the certification course for free. “She said, ‘Tell you what, I’ll talk to my boss and I’ll call you back,’” Verreault said on Sept. 18. “So I start tonight, a free CPR course. They said they’re paying it forward.”

Prepare yourself for an unsettling experience unlike anything else around as you walk the darkness and join the lost souls of Ottawa’s only living history museum to find out. Come face your fears – if you dare. Fridays and Saturdays, October 12-27 from 6:30 p.m. – 9:30 p.m. $7/per person or $18/per family CHILDREN UNDER 14 MUST BE ACCOMPANIED BY AN ADULT Cumberland Heritage Village Museum 2940 Old Montreal Road, Cumberland 613-833-3059 ext. 221 or visit ottawa.ca/museums for more information Like us on Facebook at Facebook.com/cumberlandmuseum

EMERGENCY

Verreault said she was shopping at the St.

Laurent Centre when a woman started screaming that her small child had stopped breathing. Verreault, then in a change room, quickly threw on her clothes and ran out to see what was happening. The child had a very high temperature and started having a seizure. She used cloth to cool down his body temperature and stop the seizure. She said when the paramedics arrived, his temperature was 103. “He told me, ‘Lady, you saved his life. If you hadn’t brought down the temperature, he would have had a second seizure. He could have had permanent brain damage, or would have died.’” Verreault thinks it’s important that citizens take advantage of courses, like the one she is now taking in Blackburn Hamlet. “We were very happy when he heard it, and we were happy to help,” said Serge Leduc of Community CPR Project. “First aid, that’s all it’s about, saving lives. Sometimes it doesn’t take much.” Leduc said he encourages citizens to take a course and familiarize themselves with CPR, first aid and defibrillator procedures no matter who teaches the course. He said that five minutes of proper first aid can be the difference between life and death. The Community CPR Project offers courses and has a foundation to provide subsidized or free training for low-income participants. “No one should have any obstacles to taking those classes,” Leduc said. “People like Linda who are willing to make the move, that’s what we need.” City of Ottawa first aid courses can be found online at http://ottawa.ca/en/health_safety/emergency/firstaid/courses/index.html and Community CPR Project can be reached at 613-7005164 or by email at communitycpr@bell.net.

NEWS

Pro-intensification group starts up in Ottawa

Laura Mueller laura.mueller@metroland.com

EMC news - A new pro-intensiﬁcation group is looking to get away from community activism that opposes development and instead promote creating a vibrant, world-class urban experience in the nation’s capital. Ottawa Urbanism ofﬁcially formed on Sept. 19 with the election of an executive team and board of directors. Around 30 people came to the Bethel Field House in the Golden Triangle to hear about the initiative.

“One of the most problematic things is the debate over planning is divisive,” said Felix Macias, secretary of Ottawa Urbanism and one of its founding members. “It doesn’t ﬁt into the greater sense of what it means to live in the city.” The group grew out of an online discussion forum on skyscraperpage.com. In Feburary of 2012, Macias and other founding members began meeting at the James Street Pub to discuss forming the group. Executive members include newly-elected president Philip Ghosh, a Centretown lawyer; Tyler Saikaly, vice president of research and proposals; Thom McVeigh, vice president of development reviews; Lucia Harper, director of communications; and three members-atlarge of the board of directors: Peter Drake, Liam Mooney and Luke Schnurr. The group’s activities are still to be determined, but will rest on its vision statement: “Ottawa Urbanism strives for

an Ottawa recognized for the richness and vibrancy of its urban experience, for its quality of life, its cutting-edge architecture, and design; a city where it’s easy and desirable to live an urban lifestyle.” INTENSIFICATION FOCUS

Ghosh, a founding member and now president, said he hopes Ottawa Urbanism can shift the debate over development from a focus on height to a focus on the quality of design and how building can better integrate communities. “We want to be a voice for people who have a legitimate

view that is not being adequately expressed.” Ghosh said he is familiar with other urbanist- and planning-focused groups in the city, including the Federation of Citizens’ Associations, and he hopes Ottawa Urbanism can ﬁnd its own voice and work in conjunction with existing groups. “We will go where the membership wants us to go, but I’m hoping to focus on intensiﬁcation,” Ghosh said. The group won’t just be focusing on downtown Ottawa. “Urbanism goes beyond the core,” Macias said. “It’s about connected communities.”

Championing pedestrian and cycling issues, as well as transit-oriented development, is a citywide concern, Macias

One of the most problematic things is the debate over planning is divisive FELIX MACIAS

said. Even Ottawa’s rural villages, such as Manotick and Carp, contain a smaller example of urban experience and share similar concerns, Macias

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

Students call for stop to bus fare hikes jennifer.mcintosh@metroland.com

DAVID CORSON PRESIDENT, ALGONQUIN STUDENTSâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; ASSOCIATION

U-PASS

A human rights challenge could be made with the province because itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s discrimination against older students, said Corson, who is a 48-yearold student. College Coun. Rick Chiarelli is sympathetic to the studentsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; plight. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I think we have to look at why we were giving students a price break,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Is it because they are younger or be-

Both Carleton University and the University of Ottawa have the U-Pass, which provides bus passes to all students at a cost of $290 for the eightmonth school year. The charge is included in the student fees each year. Students over 19 who stay in the city during summer months have to pay for an adult pass. The charge was voted in

during a referendum held by the universities two studentsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; associations. But Corson said thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not an option for the college. Right now no form of a UPass exists for Algonquin, La CitĂŠ CollĂŠgiale, St. Paulâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s University or the cityâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s adult high schools. Ottawa Mayor Jim Watson told council on April 25 that a U-Pass at those schools probably wouldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t be made available until 2014. The U-Pass discount only works if the entire student body pays the fee for the pass. Annie Thomlinson, the marketing director for the Algonquin Studentsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; Association, said with the high number of commuters who use cars, it just doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t make sense for the college to go the U-Pass route. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We have a number of people coming from rural areas, who already pay $500 in parking here at the college; it doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t make sense to charge them for a bus pass,â&#x20AC;? she said. Corson said he represents a student body of more than 15,000 and he isnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t comfortable with the majority paying for the beneďŹ t of a minority. According to statistics from the collegeâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s parking department, there are 7,000

cause they are going to school during working hours and needed the help ďŹ nancially?â&#x20AC;? Chiarelli said he thinks itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s the latter; otherwise the city should do away with student bus passes and simply offer a discount to anyone under the age of 19. In 2009 city council voted to disqualify students over the age of 26 from getting a discounted pass. Students organized a broad campaign that forced an amendment to the cityâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s budget that year ultimately cancelling the age cap. Chiarelli guessed a human rights challenge has about a 50 per cent chance of succeeding, but he hopes to be able to work with the mayor and his council colleagues during the upcoming budget process to make the change and avoid a legal challenge.

EMC news - The Algonquin Collegeâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Studentsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; Association may take on the city in a legal challenge unless the new age restrictions on student bus passes are lifted. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Right now our lawyers are talking with the city,â&#x20AC;? said David Corson, president of the association. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It could be a human rights challenge.â&#x20AC;? An age restriction was placed on student bus passes during changes to the whole rate package as part of the intended introduction of the Presto payment cards. While Presto wonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t be used until February, changes to student passes have already been implemented. The cutoff age for student bus passes is 19 under the new system â&#x20AC;&#x201C; a cap that is supposed to align Ottawa Presto prices with those of other areas using the system such as the GTA and Hamilton. Corson said Ottawa could have set their own rates and age caps. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We understand there is a budget crunch at the city but the changes will mean millions coming off the backs of students. Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not right,â&#x20AC;? he said. Right now students over the age of 20 will have to purchase

an adult pass which is $30 more per month. In an Aug. 24 transit commission meeting, Innes Coun. Rainer Bloess asked Metrolinx CEO Bruce McCuaig if the student ages were â&#x20AC;&#x153;set in stone.â&#x20AC;? McCuaig, whose company manages Presto, said the Ottawa transit commission had ďŹ nal say over its rate structure.

Fire Hydrants: Testing for your Safety This summer, as in past years, the City of Ottawa will be testing municipal ďŹ re hydrants on various streets throughout your community. Fire hydrant testing may result in temporary inconveniences, such as poor water pressure and brown or rust-coloured water. It is important to note that temporarily discoloured City water is not harmful to your health. This ongoing maintenance procedure ensures that our hydrants are ready, should Fire Services require their use.

The Algonquin College Studentsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; Association is campaigning against a city-imposed age restriction on student bus passes, which came about as a rate change due to the introduction of the Presto payment card. The campaign, called Keep Fares Fair is designed to push council into changing the rate structure.

Newcomers share business success stories support of your family.” Baquero also preached conservative economics to any future entrepreneur. “Don’t spend more than you can afford,” he said.

Future entrepreneurs gather to learn what it takes to start up in Ottawa Nevil Hunt

EMC news - From computers to cupcakes, new Canadians have become Ottawa’s entrepreneurs. Newcomers to Canada who hope to become business owners received a large dose of inspiration at a networking event hosted by Ottawa Centre MP Paul Dewar and the Ottawa Public Library on Sept. 25. More than 150 people travelled to Ben Franklin Place in Nepean to learn about starting a business. The event was aimed at new Canadians because Dewar’s office noticed so many newcomers tend to search for the same information. “We were getting the same requests over and over,” Dewar said. “Usually we send them to the resources and then we thought, ‘Let’s pull these people together and show them what’s available.’” The city’s hub for business questions and answers is Invest Ottawa, but the evening’s would-be entrepreneurs also had a chance to chart with representatives of micro-loan programs, local and federal

organizations and the library. Visitors heard a few success stories from people who, like them, once dreamed of starting their own business. A panel of five entrepreneurs – all newcomers to Canada at some point – gave advice and answered questions from an audience that seemed to hang on every word. Common themes were passion for the chosen field of work and the support of family, along with thorough research prior to a business launch. Claudia Arizmendi of the Cupcake Lounge moved to Ottawa from Mexico in 1994. She started baking part-time at home and decided to switch to full-time. She attended Algonquin College to learn the culinary skills she’d need. Arizmendi said she started gathering information and had her business plan reviewed by what is now Invest Ottawa and made the changes the experts suggested. With the help of a loan, the Cupcake Lounge opened in 2011 in the Byward Market. “We broke all projections,” Arizmendi said, adding the shop has 15 employees and served 50,000 customers last

Have your plan reviewed and make changes.” Xuening Chen arrived here from China and worked in high-tech before starting a retail computer business in 1990. He sold that company in 2006. Between those years he learned that his then-lim-

ited English communications skills made it critical to find a local partner who could approach corporate customers, and sales to companies eventually eclipsed retail sales to individual consumers. Columbian émigré Jaime Baquero said he has been successful because he works on something he is passionate about: coral reefs. In order to succeed in Can-

ada, Baquero said he needed to learn English and French, so took work in retail. Once he could better communicate with his fellow Canadians, he volunteered with a group that protects reefs and has since made a living by starting a company that maintains aquariums. “Canada is a country of opportunities,” Baquero said. “The key is passion and the

Ottawa library CEO Danielle McDonald said new Canadians have a tendency to start their business inquiries at their local library branch, and as a result, Ottawa’s librarians have learned what helps their customers. Ottawa’ libraries have also developed programs that can help newcomers, such as workshops on English conversation and career development. Dewar said the networking event successfully matched people with the information they need if they decide to go into business for themselves. “It’s not just about different levels of government putting out programs, but making sure they make sense,” he said. Ottawa Mayor Jim Watson encouraged visitors to get in touch with Invest Ottawa; what he called one-stop shopping for businesspeople. The office at 80 Aberdeen St. can provide advice and arrange contacts within the provincial and federal governments. Invest Ottawa can be contacted at investottawa.ca or 613-828-6274.

PET OF THE WEEK

TANK

TARGET

ID#A146478 This neutered male, chocolate Labrador Retriever is about 3 years old. He was surrendered to the shelter by his owner on July 26, 2012. Tank loves to play with his toys! He’s still learning to play more gently with them, but he could play all day long. Tank has a busy body and an active mind, so he requires more demanding exercise and mental stimulation to keep him respectful in his home. For now, Tank should be in an adult-only home until he has some additional training. He’d rather not live with other dogs, but he has lived with a cat. Tank will need to be enrolled in obedience classes before his adoption can be completed. This will ensure he has the proper structure and discipline needed to be a good canine citizen.

you leave for work. You should be able to find out which of the common problems discussed below is the cause of your dog’s barking. Attention: Your dog wants to eat, go outside or wants your undivided attention. Boredom/Frustration: If your dog is left outside day and night, crated or confined to one room all the time. Fear: your dog is afraid of objects, people, places, other animals, or loud noises such as thunder and fireworks. Your dog’s posture can tell you if he’s barking out of fear. Typically his ears are back, and his tail is held low. Territorial: If your dog barks in the presence of “intruders,”

which may include people and other dogs in adjacent yards, his posture appears threatening with his tail held high and his ears up and forward. Play and Excitement: If your dog is barking with a wagging tail wanting to greet people in a friendly way. Health: Older dogs may have Canine Cognitive Dysfunction or deafness – and may bark because they are unable to hear themselves. Dogs with health issues Some dogs bark because of age-related dementia or deafness. Be patient with your dog. Keep his environment simple and orderly; don’t make frequent changes. Talk to your vet about medications that may

help the dementia. Teach your deaf dog the “quiet” command using hand signals or a flash of light or a vibrating collar (NOT a shock collar) as the cue instead of saying the word “quiet.” If you have multiple dogs If you share your home and your life with more than one dog, you know how they can set each other off. The doorbell rings and deafening, out-ofcontrol barking ensues. You must train each dog individually before you can work with them as a group. It takes a little more effort to settle your pack of wild hounds, but you’ll be rewarded with a group of well-mannered dogs. And your friends and relatives will no longer dread coming to your house!

My name is Luke. I am a 5 year old, adopted by the Arnold-Martindale family recently. I love going on walks, “singing” to my family when they walk in the front door, stealing muffin wrappers, and harassing my new pug brother, Matzoh. I love my new life!

Barking: Why Dogs Sound Off Dogs have a lot to say, and they do it by barking. They bark to go out, come in, to tell you a stranger’s in your yard, and at people, cars, and other animals. Too much barking or barking at inappropriate times can be a problem. You want to be respectful of your neighbours as well as local laws, so you need to get your dog’s barking under control. Reasons for barking You may need to do some clever detective work to determine why your dog barks, especially if it occurs when you’re not home. Ask your neighbours what they see and hear. Go around the block and watch and listen, or start a tape recorder or video camera when

ID#147896 This neutered male, brindle coloured Doberman Pinscher/Boxer mix is approximately 8 months old. He was brought to the shelter as a stray on August 28, 2012 and is now looking for a forever home. Target enjoys playing with his canine pals and would be happy in a home with another dog, provided they don’t mind that he’s still learning how to share toys. He has lots of energy and is in search of a family that can help him expend that energy. A tired dog is a good dog! He gets along well with children 12 years and older who have grown with dogs and understand that he’s not done his training yet. Target will need crate training as well to keep him secure and items safe when he is unattended. His obedience training must be continued, and at this stage of training apartment living is not recommended for him.
