ing the audience into the words and actions of the play. “It’s going to be like a dream and the audience will see that life is a farce,” Massingham said. The director added the costumes will be very eye-catching along with the masks and other actors in heavy makeup. “It’s going to feel like you

are looking at a painting,” he said. Dubbed an anti-romantic comedy, Shaw’s play explores love, war and social status. “It’s possibly the funniest anti-romantic comedy you can see,” Massingham said. Originally set in 1885, Massingham said he has set the play in a more contemporary setting.

News - Concerns about what kind of “landmark building” could end up on the old Belisle Chevrolet-Cadillac site dominated a meeting about the future development of Vanier. The city is refreshing the Official Plan for Vanier, which has remain unchanged since amalgamation. The old plan encourages big-box style development, allows for buildings of up to 14 storeys in many places on Montreal Road and restricts the ability to mix residential units into commercial buildings, which is something the city now encourages. A preliminary version of the new plan would see Montreal Road redevelop mainly with six-storey buildings, stepping back to taller structures in some places where larger lots allow. But the new draft plan also paves the way for more significant developments at the two entrances to the district – at the corner of Montreal Road and North River Road, where the Eastview Plaza is located, and at Montreal Road and St. Laurent, the site of the former car dealership.

Fresh market growing success in Overbrook Monthly event offers produce, grains to community michelle.nash@metroland.com

Community - A small lineup of fresh-food lovers was on hand to greet the opening of a new monthly market in Overbrook. The Good Food Market set up at the corner of Lola Street and Presland Road to offer fresh fruit, produce and dry goods for area residents. It is the brainchild of the local poverty and hunger working group, which is made up members of the Coalition of Community Health and Resource Centres in the city. Even though there are multiple farmers’ markets in the city, the Good Food Markets bring low-cost produce to areas of the city where markets aren’t available. “The idea is to provide access to healthy, affordable food and the markets are open to everybody in the neighbourhood,� said Kaitrin Doll, who helps run the seven markets across the city. The volunteer-run markets were first launched as a pilot project at several locations, including Sandy Hill and Michele Heights. Overbrook was one of four markets added to the list this year. The first event in June saw more than 100 people visit the market. Even before the market opened at 10 a.m. on July 6, residents were milling about, waiting as patiently as they could to purchase some goods. Angela O’Meara and her two children were among the early market goers, and they ended up purchasing a large bag full of fruit and vegetables. O’Meara said her children love to eat fresh produce and she was happy to have the market in the neighbourhood. The food is purchased through the Good Food Box program, a nonprofit organization run out of the Cen-

tretown Community Health Centre, which offers weekly produce boxes for $20, $15 or $10, depending on size. The money for the market was made available through the Community Development Framework funding. Some of the markets offer activities for children, live music, and cook-

The third and final market will take place at the Overbrook Community Centre on Aug. 24 – the same day as the Overbrook Community Association’s community day. There were a handful of volunteers on site to set up the market early on the Saturday morning and Louzouaz said their efforts are vital to the success of the events.

Committee reluctantly supports casino at raceway Laura Mueller laura.mueller@metroland.com

News - Councillors once again said they were holding their noses as they voted on July 9 to make the RideauCarleton Raceway the city’s only option for a new casino site. But the ďŹ nal vote at city council on July 17 might see a different result, depending on additional legal information the city solicitor will bring to the meeting after representatives from the Ottawa Senators and Canadian Tire Centre blasted the city for what they say is a faulty and possibly illegal process of choosing where to put a new gambling facility. While council voted in principle last fall to support a new casino, Watson said changes in leadership at Queen’s Park and the Ontario Lottery and Gaming Corporation opened an opportunity for the city to specify where it wants a casino, and he now thinks the facility should be at the Rideau-Carleton Raceway. Without it, the raceway and the approximately 1,000 jobs provided by the south Ottawa business would be no more, Watson said. “This is the only way to protect slots at the raceway,â€? he said. But critics of the move blasted the city for going down a road of solesourcing the bid for a new casino. While Watson contends that any

hopeful casino operator could submit a bid and then operate a casino at the raceway, critics said in a practical sense, the location and business operations must be linked. Senators owner Eugene Melnyk spoke to the committee at length, pleading for an equal chance to submit his bid for a casino at the Canadian Tire Centre in Kanata. “I’m not asking for a handout. I’m asking for a shot – a shot to make money so I can do this,â€? he said, referring to running his hockey team despite ďŹ nancial losses. The Senators operate at a great ďŹ nancial loss and a casino could help prop up the business, Melnyk said. But he brushed off the suggestion that he was threatening to take the team elsewhere if he didn’t get the chance to bid to build a casino. “I’ve been doing this for 10 years. Why stop now?â€? Melnyk said. “I still love this city.â€? City solicitor Rick O’Connor agreed to get additional legal advice from third-party lawyers after the mayor and council received a tongue lashing from Capital Sports and Entertainment lawyer Paul Webber. He called Watson’s motion “unlawfulâ€? and “morally and ethicallyâ€? unsound. “You are bonusing a business. I don’t know how I can be more clear than that,â€? Webber said. “Not only does it not pass the smell test, it’s not

O’Connor said that’s not true – legal advice from an arms-length ďŹ rm that defended the Lansdowne redevelopment contract indicated the city is allowed to specify a location. But O’Connor said he would like to look at the matter in more depth, given the “aggressiveâ€? nature of comments from delegates like Webber. Gloucester-Southgate Coun. Diane Deans said the goal of saving the raceway and the jobs it provides is laudable, but the city should have more information before it makes moves to save one business at the expense of another, such as a hockey team like

the Senators. Stittsville Coun. Shad Qadri, whose ward contains the Canadian Tire Centre, took a similar stance. He has supported the possibility of a new casino at the area all along, he said, but he would like to see it win in an open and competitive bidding process. The only dissenting vote at the ďŹ nance and economic development committee meeting was from Deans, who has been vocally opposed to a new casino. At least one councillor was surprised to hear the city manager say that the Rideau Carleton Raceway would remain open and operated by

the OLG or a subcontractor if the city rejected OLG’s chosen option for a casino operator and location. College Coun. Rick Chiarelli said that when he asked the same question last fall, he and council were told that rejecting OLG’s casino choice would mean the slots at the raceway – and effectively, the raceway facility itself – would shut down. The news even came as a surprise to the representatives of the raceway. “That’s a new but a positive wrinkle,� Lawryk said. City manager Kent Kirkpatrick said that could end up being the result if the OLG chose not to renew its slots contract with the raceway. Rideau-Goulbourn Coun. Scott Moffatt, who opposes a casino, said it’s impossible to say whether the original vote last November would have had a different result if councillors knew the OLG would be open to continuing to operate the slots. “It appears the direction of the OLG has changed since Wynne came in,� Moffat said. But that option didn’t exist at the time, he added. The previous OLG power brokers were adamant that gambling would be in the urban area, or Ottawa wouldn’t get a gambling facility at all, Moffatt said. The OLG might continue operating slots at the raceway if city council turned down a new casino, he said. R0012208262

Ottawa man chases Canadian history to high Arctic Researcher tracing route of landmark Canadian Arctic Expedition 100 years later Emma Jackson emma.jackson@metroland.com

News - One hundred years ago, a large team of scientists and adventurers were preparing for a journey of a lifetime to Canada’s high Arctic to document the landscape, wildlife and culture of the Far North. The Canadian Arctic Expedition, launched in 1913, would come to span ďŹ ve long years of setbacks, human loss and scientiďŹ c breakthrough and become one of the greatest, largely untold adventures in Canadian history. It’s also a history Metcalfe resident David Gray hopes to bring back to life. The independent researcher, writer and ďŹ lmmaker has spent much of his professional life documenting Canada’s northern regions. Despite his home base in rural Ottawa, hardly a year has gone by without a trip to the Arctic since he ďŹ rst spent 11 months on Bathurst Island in 1968. On July 17, Gray once again took to the north in an attempt to ďŹ nally locate, survey and document the camps and locations of the original expedition a century ago. “It’s an exciting opportunity to bring this site back to life, in a way,â€? Gray said, referring to the main site near Sachs Harbour, N.W.T., 500 ki-

lometres northeast of Inuvik. “Even for the local people, they know it’s historic, they know it’s signiďŹ cant, but they can’t go back and say ‘This is where my grandfather put his tent’ because no one has mapped it out.â€? The six-person team will y into Sachs Harbour on the southwest shore of Banks Island on July 17. From there they can easily access the expedition’s main headquarters west of the town, where they will spend a week documenting the site’s hut foundations and remnants of the schooner Mary Sachs. From there the team will board a motorized sailboat Bernard Explorer captained by Bob Bernard, greatgreat-nephew of expedition member Peter Bernard. They will head due north to explore the western shore of Banks Island looking for any sign of Bernard, who was lost in the winter of 1916. The last sign of his trail was found at the northwest tip of the island and Gray said it’s unlikely he ever turned south toward the safety of fellow expedition member Natkusiak’s camp in the nearby Gore Islands. At the time, Bernard was carrying several large expedition mail bags. Finding those bags – and anything still intact inside them – would be a major windfall. “The most likely scenario is he

Dr. David Gray left on July 17 for Canada’s high Arctic, where he will retrace the steps of the notorious Canadian Arctic Expedition that launched from Victoria 100 years ago. went through the ice and there won’t be anything to ďŹ nd,â€? Gray said. “But given the ocean currents ... stuff could be washed up on the shores at any time. It’s a shot in the dark. It’s a needle in a haystack, but if you don’t look you don’t ďŹ nd.â€? From there the ship will make its way south along the shoreline to document another 10 sites, including Natkusiak’s camp. The crew should return home by the end of August.

The expedition will produce two documentary ďŹ lms, a historical record of Sachs Harbour to be used as a tourism guide, and could someday lead to a book. Of course like many scientiďŹ c endeavours, Gray said funding continues to be a barrier. Despite some indication that federal money would be set aside to commemorate the expedition’s 100th anniversary, Gray gave up trying to squeeze blood from a

stone several months ago and turned instead to a crowdfunding campaign. The team needs about $20,000 to cover the trip’s bare bone expenses, which don’t include individual travel costs incurred by the team members as well as their free labour. “It’s a people expedition,� Gray said. He said many people connected to the expedition, the team members or who have an interest in the north have already come forward with generous donations. Corporate sponsorships and donations from people not otherwise connected to the project are also starting to come forward. “Everybody’s pulling together,� he said. And putting off the expedition until more funds can be raised is hardly an option. As global warming takes its toll on the region, time is of the essence. “Now that there isn’t ice protection in the summer months, the erosion rate is increasing dramatically,� Gray said, noting that as much as one metre of shoreline is eaten away every two years. That erosion is taking history with it. “Every storm, every high tide, artifacts are lost.� Donors can still support the expedition with cheques to the Canadian Museum of Nature, or through the expedition’s website www.canadianarcticexpedition.com. The crew will also maintain a blog and live map on their website throughout their journey, for Canadians who want to follow along at home.

Richmond Underground Earn Extra Money! Keep Your Weekends Free! plan chugs ahead Committee approves light-rail route despite objections from NCC Laura Mueller laura.mueller@metroland.com

News - A chorus of unhappy residents relayed their continued opposition to the “Richmond underground,” despite the city’s offer to study a fully underground western LRT route. The transportation committee approved the route, which would start at Tunney’s Station and runs along the Sir John A. Macdonald Parkway in a trench for approximately 500 metres and traverses Rochester Field before dipping under Richmond Road for 700 m. This leg of the light-rail system will end at Baseline Station, but the portion that will see the most changes – and has stirred the most controversy – runs through McKellar Park. The committee signed off to proceed with the route despite the National Capital Commission twice voting to reject the Richmond Underground option. The route would require the NCC to grant the city access to about a kilometre of its land along the parkway and the federal body was not interested in the city’s plan to run trains – even in a trench – along the road. But a few councillors, including Rideau-Vanier Coun. Mathieu Fleury, said the city isn’t willing to “bow to the NCC” when it comes to the rail route. And the NCC’s approval isn’t even needed yet, said Bay Coun. Mark Taylor. He pointed out the NCC didn’t sign off on the downtown portion of light

Cruising Your Way

rail, the Confederation Line, until just before the details were finalized and the contract tendered. City staff have already proposed changes aimed at pleasing the NCC that will inflate the bill by $80 million. The budget for the project, which now stands at $980 million, cannot stand to get any larger, or it will impact the city’s ability to tackle other transit projects on its list, said city treasurer Marian Simulik. “Every time we whittle a dollar away, it eats into that $4 billion envelope for rail until 2031,” said Innes Coun. Rainer Bloess. Deputy city manager Nancy Schepers said staff have not done a “deep enough analysis” to come up with a price tag for burying the remaining 500 m. “That’s what we’d propose to do in the next phase,” she said. Schepers did say there is a significant difference in cost between keeping the rail line above ground or burying it. Per kilometre, it costs approximately $40 to $60 million to build on the surface, but that number balloons to $100 to $150 million per kilometre for underground rail. The line wouldn’t begin construction until around 2018. It would carry 1,300 passengers in each direction during the peak hour by 2031. A handful of delegates – mainly representatives from nearby condo buildings – told the committee they’d prefer to see the route run down Carling

Avenue, or for the line to at least be fully underground. Neeta McMurtry of Neighbours for Smart Western Rail said the concerns “are not simply about NIMBYism (not in my backyard).” She was concerned about protecting parks and green space. Although the delegates were still displeased, Egli pointed out that the city has changed the plans substantially in response to residents’ concerns about property value, access to the waterfront, safety and more. “You’ve made us do our job better,” he said. Estimating the cost of burying the remaining section along the parkway isn’t the only work on city staff’s agenda. They will also be looking at refining the station locations, including analyzing whether it might be a good cost-saving measure to eliminate one of two proposed new stations at Cleary and New Orchard. Ron Bollman, representing a condo corporation at 727 Richmond Rd., said the proposed Clearly station is too large and elaborate for the needs of the local community. The stations were included because the city wants the rail system to serve the local community, too – not just commuters, Schepers said. Getting rid of one of the stations would create a one-kilometre distance between stations in that area instead of the proposed 600 m walking distance, she said. The city will also look at making the berm that would run atop the train tunnel a bit shorter so it doesn’t block views to the river or create a steep hill that makes it hard to cross to the river.

Let’s avoid city planning extremes

T

here is little room for black and white when it comes to planning Ottawa’s future. A good case-in-point is the debate that surrounded the decision to turn Main Street, running through Old Ottawa East, into what is described as a “complete street.� This term describes a streetscape that makes room for all modes of transportation, from walking to cycling to cars to buses or other modes of mass transit. It means wide sidewalks, designated cycling lanes and typically fewer lanes for automobile traffic. It is the type of street that is meant to promote and support sustainable growth of cities, making the streetscape a friendlier place for those living and working in the area. It is also something that can prove divisive, a situation that played out at a recent transportation committee meeting. Among the opponents of the plan, two councillors on the committee representing suburban wards expressed concern with the effect such a street would have, not on those living in the area, but those passing through or living in areas that might become home to a complete street in the future. Gloucester-Southgate Coun. Diane Deans said reducing the number of lanes on Main from four to two would have a negative effect on commuters from her

ward. Despite the good intentions of the completestreet plan, that’s a concern worth considering. In a similar vein, Kanata South Coun. Allan Hubley said Ottawa needs to “ensure we’re not designing all our streets in a way that chokes off traffic and the ability to transport people and goods.� Also a good point, but neither concern is reason enough not to make Main Street a more pleasant roadway for walkers and cyclists. They shouldn’t be ignored either. As the city’s intensification policies play out and more people live in the urban core, it will no longer be feasible for more people to drive around their neighbourhood. This scenario won’t be playing out the same way in the suburbs, which will remain reliant on automobiles for decades to come. The problem is, those people use the city’s urban core – for both work and pleasure – too. When they do, they’ll be riding in the comfort of their own automobiles. If we want our city’s roads to be as pleasant and as efficient as possible, automobiles must remain a big consideration for both city staff and councillors. Like with many political decisions, the grey area between the black and white is where many of the best answers lie. Making sure Ottawa is a great place for all of us to live, work and play must be the paramount concern in all decisions made at city hall.

What happens when Alfie comes back?

I

t will be a few months before we have an answer to the big sports question, so far, of 2013. Will Ottawa hockey fans boo Daniel Alfredsson? This is a bit of a trick question, because a percentage of people at the Sens arena have always booed Alfredsson. Those would be the Toronto Maple Leaf fans who have always hated Alfredsson for obscure historical reasons and have stumbled into the wrong arena. But for most fans, Ottawa fans, the moment of truth will come the first time Alfredsson’s new team, the Detroit Red Wings, visits. Will he be booed, like Alexei Yashin and Dany Heatley, or cheered, like Mike Fisher, when he returned to Scotiabank Place as a member of the Nashville Predators? Some people will never forgive Alfie for leaving Ottawa. Others will thank him for his many years of inspiring play for the Senators and wish him well. And some people will boo anyone not wearing a Senators uniform. There are many different kinds of sports fans, as you found out reading the Internet comments on the day Alfredsson announced he was leaving town. While much of the city was in numb shock, some fans had moved on by mid-afternoon. Online, they had already forgotten Alfie, as

Ottawa East News EMC - Thursday, July 18, 2013

Because these fans are so loyal to the players, they expect the players to be loyal to them. But hockey, like all sports, like all society, doesn’t seem to work that way anymore. Players are not loyal to teams, teams are not loyal to players -- at least, not forever. Stars like Alfredsson leave because they see a better chance of winning somewhere else, or because they are offered more money. Teams trade popular veteran players, like Mike Fisher, because they think they can get something in return, or simply to dump some salary. It is a business, as we are constantly reminded. This is a tough thing to explain to a young fan and you put off explaining it for as long as you can. People thought that Alfredsson was different, but it turned out he wasn’t. People thought the Senators would do anything to keep Alfredsson in Ottawa, and it turned out that they wouldn’t. Some of us would like it to be otherwise, but it’s a business. We should know that, from looking at the prices we pay to get in and from looking at the reports of the salaries players are making and the vast amounts of cash laid out for television rights. But there is a part of every sports fan that is a starry-eyed little kid, just

wanting to cheer for the home team, worship the stars and not know anything about the financial details. And it’s probably that little kid who keeps coming back, despite strikes, lockouts, drug scandals and all the other unpleasantness that has been plaguing professional sport in recent years. We want to believe the best of our athletes and the teams they play for. Our faith isn’t always rewarded, but it is often enough to keep us in the game. Over the years, Alfie was one of those who helped us keep the faith, which is why it is so difficult to see him go.

Re-discovering freedom in the woods

I

BRYNNA LESLIE Capital Muse play war. They catch bugs and hide behind trees. I asked my younger son what other kinds of things he likes to do in the woods. “Last weekend, we made a fort,” he said. “And we made up a game: how many rocks you can throw into the hole in the bottom of the tree.” They create things. They have the autonomy to experiment without judgment or instruction and seemingly without limits. Much of this comes down to the fact that they’ve been camping since their first years of life. We’ve also taken them to interpretive nature programs and safety programs, like Hug-aTree-and-Survive. For two years, my kids have been carrying the backpack kit provided by the local Search and Rescue team – including a whistle, a plastic bag and a snack. (We replace the snack on occasion). Age seven and eight, they’ve already been sleeping in their own tent for

areas of the woods and grow. And they do grow, physically and also intellectually and emotionally. There are no temper tantrums in the woods. There is empathy and patience. I can’t explain how their personalities seem to

change. Not bound by four walls, no ceiling to block the elements, their internal rhythms kick in. They sleep when it gets dark, wake with the sunrise and eat constantly, but heartily. It really is a beautiful thing. They

also like that mom is never distracted by the interrupting beep of her smartphone. When’s the last time your kids experienced that kind of freedom? When’s the last time you did?

three years, which is shocking to most of their friends and mine. Our first weekends of the summer also saw the baby get down and dirty. Barefoot on grass, she crawled about and walked, pushing her little wagon further than ever before. One day, we found her with a squirmy green caterpillar wriggling between her wee thumb and forefinger. (She may have been about to eat it, but for that moment, she was just examining it and giggling).When we’re camping, the baby eats well, sleeps well and hardly cries. She gets dirt under her fingernails and campfire smoke in her eyes, and she loves it. She’s a natural. Sometimes we talk dreamily about buying a rural property so we can build a cabin or a chalet. But the thing is we love camping. Every trip offers an opportunity for the kids to meet new friends, explore new R0012206276/0711

have to apologize to my friends and colleagues who’ve been Facebooking and sending me regular emails. They know I’ve recently acquired a smartphone, so I should have no excuse for being out of touch. But here’s the thing: three weeks into summer and we’ve spent every weekend in Gatineau Park. Gatineau Park doesn’t have good wireless coverage for my network. So for three days a week, I’ve essentially been switched off. Although I’ve been reprimanded by friends for forgetting ladies drinks night and hounded by editors desperate to assign me summer projects, I’ve been enjoying the weekends of freedom. It turns out my kids feel the same way. “Mom, I love camping,” said my seven-year-old the other day. “I feel so free when we’re camping.” My boys are the perfect age to explore nature on their own terms. We set up camp and, with some established rules (okay, it’s still freedom with limits), they take off for hours at a time into the surrounding woods. It gives them the impression, at least, that they are loosed from the watchful eyes of parents and rules. They smash rocks and

about egos, the 45-year-old Bowe, a two-time world heavyweight champion, picked up a baseball bat for the ďŹ rst time in 32 years to help. Canseco said this would become an annual event, so even if people missed it this year, they should come out for next year’s challenge. Both teams knocked a few balls out of the park, and making up for last year, Canseco went yard a number of times over the course of the afternoon. An all-star game followed the derby, with members of both the Carleton Ravens and the Ottawa Gee Gees playing alongside Canseco and Bowe. Two fans donated $120 and $125 to play on Team Hockey for the game. The friendly event had the players and fans mingling together, where Canseco signed balls, hats and shirts and Bowe sat in the stands and chatted with the crowd. Malamud said the organization will take the next few weeks to tally to the total and present CHEO with a cheque shortly after.

STARTING FROM

Sports - It was a busy day at Carlington Park when a number of allstar players came out to the community ďŹ eld to play a little baseball for charity. Former baseball star Jose Canseco, boxing champion Riddick Bowe, Pittsburgh Penguins prospect Clark Seymour, former National Hockey League player Doug Smith and former football player and wrestler Glenn Kulka joined organizer and baseball fan Evan Malamud for the Home Runs for Autism fundraiser on July 6 at the community park. The group of heavy-weight stars formed two teams – Team Baseball and Team Hockey – to compete in a home run derby challenge. “This is a great cause, and everyone should help raise some money,â€? Canseco said. Malamud started this fundraiser in 2012 when he had challenged Canseco over Twitter to a derby, in hopes he would show and help raise money for autism. Canseco took on the challenge and came to Ottawa free of charge to help raise as much as he could for the charity. Malamud won the derby against his favourite baseball player. The event took place at the Ottawa Baseball Stadium in May 2012 and raised more than $10,000 for CHEO. This charity is close to Malamud’s heart as his oldest son Jaedyn was diagnosed as autistic at the age of two and since the diagnosis Malamud and his family have spent a lot of time at CHEO for their autism services. A year later, Malamud and Canseco were back at it, joking around like old pals and playing for the same team. “He beat me last year so I though it would be better to play with him,â€? Canseco told the crowd. To prove this event was more about raising money for autism and less

39-storey tower proposed for Somerset Street Steph Willems steph.willems@metroland.com

FOTENN/SUBMITTED

Claridge homes has submitted a rezoning application in the hopes of building a 39-storey building near the O-Train tracks and Somerset Street bridge. Community members have some reservations regarding traffic and height.

News - With Claridge Homes now proposing a 39-storey condo tower adjacent to the OTrain tracks and Somerset Street Bridge, the Hintonburg Community Association is looking to ensure the impact on the neighbourhood is limited. Last month Claridge approached the community with its plan to develop 1040 Somerset St., which is located on the south side, east of Breezehill Avenue. The Somerset-fronting property to the west of the site is already owned by Claridge and zoned for a 23-storey residential building. The proposed building would contain 338 residential units in a

Traffic flow in the area is constrained by narrow roads, sharp corners and limited sightlines. As well, the close proximity of Devonshire Public School makes vehicle speed and cut-through traffic a concern. “We don’t want to exacerbate traffic problems on Breezehill,� said Leiper, adding that sightlines on the Somerset bridge would make signalizing the intersection a challenge. While Leiper also agreed with the low parking capacity (representing one vehicle space for every two units – the lowest the city can allow), he asked Malhotra – and will continue to advocate for – a drop in building height to a maximum of 30 storeys. The neighbouring 23-storey tower, if built, would mitigate the

slim tower atop a four-storey podium, with 162 vehicle parking spaces along with spots for 124 bicycles. Association president Jeff Leiper said Claridge vice president Neil Malhotra spoke to association members about the project in a pre-consultation meeting. Several aspects of the project met with approval, at least from Leiper, though the community holds reservations about other elements, including traffic flow. “We congratulated the developer on hiring a good, Torontobased architect,� said Leiper. “It’s good to see one of the city’s reputable developers taking the city’s challenge for better building design and stepping up to the plate.�

1040 Somerset tower’s height by standing between the community and the new development. However, the HCA would still like to see 30 storeys or less built. While the site would have to be rezoned in order to achieve this height, the parcel of land is designated a mixed-use centre, which supports a wide variety of building uses. “We know it’s going to be tall and I still have to talk to the membership to see how they want to fight this, if at all.� The site is just outside the edge of the boundaries of the Bayview Station community design plan, which was approved earlier this year. That plan would see the addition of varying density to the empty area around Bayview Station, including the City Centre site. Close proximity to two major rapid transit lines makes the site a good candidate for high-density development, Leiper admits. No planning committee date has been set for the proposal, and a public meeting would have to be held first.

Arts - Sandra Oh, known for playing Dr. Christina Yang on the television show Grey’s Anatomy, returned home on July 8 to accept the key to the city. Oh grew up in Nepean, and got an early start acting at Knoxdale Public School and Sir Robert Borden High School. Oh was the opposite of the stern character television fans are used to seeing, as she laughed, smiled and several times, wiped tears from her eyes as she accepted the key at city hall. Her family, including her parents, who still live in Nepean, and siblings all sat with the star at the city hall presentation. Besides Grey’s Anatomy, Oh has been in many independent ďŹ lms, and won two Genie Awards and a Golden Globe. Before she was presented with the key to the city, the audience watched a highlight reel of her work from when she received her star on

Canada’s Walk of Fame in 2011. She dedicated a large part of her speech to her two young nieces, who grinned ear to ear when their aunt spoke to them about living with good values. “You can own the key to the city, to whatever city you live in, if you are responsible for a life well lived,â€? Oh said. “And I wish that for the both of you.â€? Oh’s ďŹ rst performance was in a play called the Canada Goose at Knoxdale Public School. “And then going along Greenbank to SRB, a huge part of my entire time in high school was the Canada Improv Games,â€? she said. “I did so much of my training and acting in those formative years from Grade 9 to 13. I can’t tell you how much that training affected my career, so deeply.â€? She also danced at Nepean’s Les Petits Ballets throughout her youth. Many of her teachers and friends returned to city hall to see her accept the key. She stopped to point out several teachers, friends, and even her ďŹ rst boy-

At one point, the current Sir Robert Borden principal came out to present Oh with a painted ceiling tile. As class president, Oh had promised advocating for painted ceiling tiles as a part of her campaign speech, something that didn’t happen during her year term as head girl. Oh said her parents, Joon-Soo and Young-Nam Oh, who immigrated to Ottawa from Korea, are well-respected in Ottawa’s Korean community.

Nuns express worry over height, mass of future development and then deal with individual developments on their own through the zoning bylaw amendment process,� Knight wrote in an email. The proposed updates to Vanier’s Official Plan would also see sidewalks expanded to four metres wide on both Montreal Road and McArthur Avenue as sites are redeveloped. Cycling connections and intersection improvements are also priorities in the plan, and that’s something the Vanier merchants’ association is excited about. “It’s important because people are looking for that sense of place,� said Suzanne Valiquet, executive director of Quartier Vanier. She said the plan will help Vanier “turn the page� and develop in a similar fashion to Ottawa’s other successful main streets like Bank Street in the Glebe. “We’re certainly very, very pleased with what the city is proposing,� Valiquet said.

LAURA MUELLER/METROLAND

Concern over potential redevelopment plans for the vacant Belisle Chevrolet-Cadillac site overshadowed a discussion about updating plans for the revitalization of Vanier’s commercial district.

Cal

Those sites wouldn’t have any building height restrictions in the new Official Plan, according to the draft version. The idea is to mimic the controversial landmark buildings policy included in the just-adopted Centretown community design plan and secondary plan. In Centretown, the community association and a group of developers formed a rare partnership to write their own version of the plan that eliminated the tall landmark buildings clause. Pheonix Homes recently purchased the Belisle site, but no development applications have been filed with the city. During a public meeting on July 8, Linda Joseph, head of the Filles de la Sagesse convent, said the sisters have heard rumours of plans for three residential buildings on the site, which she said would be “pretty serious.â€? “Can you imagine three or four towers (and) what that would represent?â€? she asked. The nuns worry about the cultural impact on the district, as well as the social and environmental impact of adding many more people and more buildings into the area, Joseph said. The affect on aging worshippers should also be a consideration, she said. The sisters know something will be built on the site, Joseph said, but they hope for something with “a human dimensionâ€? – maybe even a museum. Residents on neighbouring College Circle were also worried about the noise a new Belisle development. “I think they’ve overlooked (the Belisle site),â€? said Carole Larose, referring to noise that could be created by ventilation systems and traffic. But she was excited about the rest of the plan, which she sees as the framework needed to revitalize Vanier. Larose recently moved back to Vanier from Carp. “I want to be part of this up-andcoming vibrant new part of the city,â€? she said. “I have pride‌ you want to keep the flavour but it’s time to move on.â€?

A representative from Phoenix Homes was not available to comment on any potential development by this newspaper’s deadline. City planner Melanie Knight is in charge of the project and said she might still include a height limit for the gateways, depending on public feedback. “We are still looking at the gateway policy and questioning whether or not to actually put a height limit in the secondary plan policies or have that be something that is determined through the zoning bylaw amendment process,� she said. Keeping the old zoning on some of the large sites could lead to benefits for the community, too, since the requisite rezoning would come along with a “Section 37� community benefits payment from the developer, Knight said. “It is better to have the Official Plan policies that guide what the overall development should look like

Transient tramps always welcome at dinner table

F

ather was sure there was a hidden sign nailed to a tree, only visible to the countless tramps who rode the rails that said, “Jump here: good food up the hill.” Deep in the heart of the Depression years, almost as if they were put there to remind us there was someone in worse shape than we were, tramps walked the back roads, rode the freight trains and survived by begging for their next meal. Countless numbers found their way to our kitchen door, always around dinner time, looking for something to eat. They frightened me, although Father said they were harmless, and I was glad that if they did surface at night, we never saw them. My brothers were sure they often came up over the West Hill and slept in the barn where they were warm and away from the outdoor elements. They seemed to know on the farm

MARY COOK Memories the big meal was at the noon hour. They also seemed to know when the family was all seated at the table, because that was when we would hear the gentle knock on the door. They never had to ask for something to eat: we knew why they were there. Mother would look them over and if they were clean, having taken a wash in the Bonnechere River before coming up the hill, they were invited in. If they looked like they needed a hand-scrub, Mother would take out a wash basin of warm soapy water, put it on the back stoop and told them to come in when they had washed up. The brothers would squeeze to-

gether on the bench and make room for the tramp and Mother would laden a plate full of food. I would watch mesmerized as the food vanished as if they hadn’t eaten in days – there was a good chance they hadn’t. Father would try to make conversation, but the tramps said little. We five children clammed up as if we had lost our tongues. I wanted to know where they had come from and how they had become tramps, but of course I too sat mute while the food disappeared. As quickly as they came, they spent just enough time to cram in their heaping plates of food and then they stood and were ready to head out again. Mother would tell them to sit a spell and we always knew what she was going to do because it never varied all the time we lived through those Depression years. She would take a brown paper bag off the rack at the back door.

showing that he had taken more than a quick wash in the river. Just as he finished tucking into his second piece of pie, he asked Father for a job. He talked more than any other tramp we had ever fed. He was what was called a “home boy.” He came from England as a 12 year old, he said, from an orphanage. He was sent to a farm in the Ottawa Valley, where he suffered from abuse and endless hours of labour. Father told him there was no money for a hired man and besides, we had three strapping boys to do the chores. But the tramp persevered. He told Father if he could sleep in the barn and have three meals a day and a flat-fifty of cigarettes every Saturday night, he would work for nothing. That was how one of those tramps who rode the rails and depended on the generosity of others, became our hired man. He really became a member of the family and I would often see Father slip the man, who was really a boy, a dollar when he could spare it. The tramps were a symbol of that era. We knew not where they had come from or where they were going. It mattered little what time of year it was. Winter or summer, almost daily we could count on seeing a tramp coming up over the West Hill. They were never turned away. They came hungry and they left with full bellies and enough food to take them to the next stop on their endless journey.

Then she would go to the bake table and make thick sandwiches of whatever meat we had had for dinner. Always she would tuck in cookies or a big piece of pie and then she would go to the ice box and with the ice pick would chip off big slivers of ice and put them into a glass jar that at one time held pickles or preserves, filling it with cold water from the granite pail. Often I would see the tramp wipe his eyes with the back of his hand, as he thanked Mother and tucked the bulging paper bag into the sack he carried on the end of a short pole resting on his shoulder. He would go as quietly as he came, out the back door and down the hill, making his way to the railroad tracks. I knew he would be waiting until the next freight train rounded the corner at the very back of the farm. It would slow down to handle the curve in the track. Father said this was where they would jump on the train and go off to goodness knows where. We never saw the same tramp twice. They came in all shapes and sizes, and all ages. Some of them, I thought, were no more than boys, young like my three brothers. I would wonder why they were tramps, and my brothers weren’t. Then one day I learned at least a partial answer to that question. The young tramp that rapped on our kitchen door that day was whip thin and as clean as a whistle. His hair was coal-black and slicked down,

Matinees to take place indoors

R0022209322_0718

Continued from page 1

The company said they are aiming to attract both Shaw enthusiasts as well as anyone else who may be walking through the park. “People are going to find it’s more than a play. It’s a bit of an event and really the play starts from the moment people entre the park,” Massingham said. This year the company will also be offering indoor matinees -a first for the company, which said owing to the unpredictability of weather and for the comfort of some long-time patrons, matinees will take place at Academic Hall Theatre, at the University of Ottawa with performances starting at 2 p.m. on Thursdays and Sundays. The performance has got a few helping hands this season as eight high school students are participating in the company’s youth apprenticeship program. The students get to experience a professional theatre company first hand. From stage directing, administration, acting and front of the house experience, these youth get the opportunity to learn as much as they can from Odyssey during the summer months. The program also offers students the opportunity to collect volunteer hours. “It’s great, at the end of the summer I might have at least 100 hours,” said Cléa Spencer, one of the youth apprentices. She added the hours are a bonus, but really it’s the experience she can’t

JESSIE PARK-WHEELER/SUBMITTED

Pippa Leslie, of Odyssey Theatre, will be performing in George Bernard Shaw’s Arms and the Man. get enough of. “You get so much more than just hours,” she said. “I recommend this program to anyone who is interested in theatre, and I also recommend you bring your enthusiasm too.” For Massingham he said the experience the students is much more educational than simply sitting in a classroom. “It’s the ultimate summer camp,” he said. “They each have their own role and it’s crucial that they care a part of it. We learn as we do. This is not drama class, it’s a show. We all, including the students, have our blood, sweat and tears in this.” City hall-goers will be able to meet Spencer and her fellow high school colleagues at city hall. As of July 17, the young troupe will be performing a

love scene to garner attention for the theatre company every Wednesday from noon to 1 p.m. “It’s going to be like flash mob theatre,” Spencer said. The young Canterbury student admits she thinks it’s going to be tough trying to get people to stop and watch their short play, but she says she welcomes the challenge. “It’s such a physical performance and there is going to be some great music from another apprentice, I hope that makes people stop and pay attention,” she said. Lead actress for Arms and the Man, Pippa Leslie, said working with the students has been great. “It’s been great. I hope we can teach them lots of things,” Leslie said. “I just wish there was this kind of opportunity when I was in school.” Spencer said Leslie and the other actors and stage hands have been great at making this program a great experience for her and the other students. Regular performances are Tuesday through Sunday at 8 p.m. Tickets are $24 for general admission, $19 for students and seniors and $9 for children under 12. Matinees are $15 for general admission and $9 for children under 12. Families can purchase group tickets for $45 for the matinee shows and $60 for the evening shows. The box office opens at 7 p.m. and the gate at 7:30 p.m. The paywhat-you-can shows move to Sunday nights. More information about the company or the youth apprenticeship is available at odysseytheatre.ca.

Rideau River park celebrates 50 years with community day Emma Jackson emma.jackson@metroland.com

News - Any 50th anniversary is reason to celebrate, and staff at Rideau River Provincial Park are jumping on the opportunity. On Saturday, July 20, members of the public are invited to wish the park a happy anniversary with a funfilled day of fishing, canoeing and exploring. At various times between 11 a.m. and 5 p.m., families can meet Smokey the Bear, visit with conservation officers and learn about the park’s rich habitats and wildlife with natural heritage education staff from sister park Murphy’s Point. The Friends of Murphy’s Point will host a barbecue and cake-cutting event for a nominal fee, and in the afternoon families can jump in an 18-person voyageur canoe for an hour-long free tour on the Rideau. Families should register in advance for a voyageur canoe tour. Family fishing on the public docks will also be available, but park supplies are limited so families should bring their own tackle if they can. Family activities wrap up around 5 p.m., but everyone can return at 8 p.m. to see the Celtic Rathskallions perform in the park until 9:30 p.m. with Celtic-rooted music, dance, drama and stories.

EMMA JACKSON/METROLAND

Rideau River Provincial Park will mark 50 years on July 20. Assistant park superintendent Harvey Cornell and senior park clerk Laurie Dulmage hope the community will help them celebrate the anniversary. While individual activities are free all day, a day pass entrance to the park is $14 per car. Assistant park superintendent Harvey Cornell said the celebration is open to everyone. “Just like anything, we want to celebrate the anniversary,m because

it’s quite a big milestone,” he said. “We want to talk about the park.” The 98-hectare green space is located off Donnelly Drive near Beckett’s Landing, along the “long reach” of the Rideau Canal – the longest stretch between any two lockstations.

The park was part of the province’s explosion in park development in the 1950s and 1960s, when Ontario’s parks jumped in number from only eight in 1954 to a whopping 77 in 1961. In 1957, Ontario’s minister of lands and forests, J.W. Spooner,

announced plans for a swimming beach and campground on forest station land along the Rideau. Camping started in 1959, and in 1963 Rideau River was officially designated a provincial park. In those days, a day pass cost only 50 cents, and a camping permit was $1. For $3, you could use the park all season. Today the park is a popular site for day use as well as car and RV camping. Along with 184 regular camp sites, it offers six group sites which are well-used by local scouting and community groups. The park boasts sandy beaches, a fitness trail and fishing opportunities. Senior park clerk Laurie Dulmage has worked at the park for 13 years and said it’s unique because of its accessibility. “We’re on the Rideau Canal, which is a UNESCO World Heritage Site, and we’re close to Ottawa and close to Merrickville,” she said. Down the road, visitors can find hiking trails and a golf course. In the past decade the park has upgraded its washrooms and sewage systems, and has seen much of its park infrastructure updated as well. Last year 39,000 visitors used the park. The park is located at 2680 Donnelly Dr. For more information call 613-258-2740.

Heavy lifting A handful of locals came out to watch as more than 100 construction workers replace the 55-year-old, 600tonne bridge where Highway 417 crosses Kirkwood and Carling avenues on July 6. The work is part of the Ministry of Transportation’s repair and widening of the highway and took less than 24 hours to complete from the time work began at 6 p.m. This is the third time the province has replaced a bridge on the Highway 417 using this method.

run – and an afternoon one too! He’s an outgoing, friendly boy who gets along well with other dogs and kids older than 12. He’s looking forward to learning some basic commands, so his new family will need to send him for obedience training. Charlie is a creature of habit who is most

comfortable in his crate, which he’s used since he was a teeny pup. Meet Mr. Butters (A140976), a twoyear-old, neutered male, white and black domestic shorthair cat who would love to find a home with a fellow feline! Mr. Butters was surrender to the shelter by his owner June 5 and is now available for adoption. Mr. Butters is known to hop into the tub after your daily shower to play in the water left behind. He’s a very affectionate cat with a gentle disposition and would be a great fit in any home. Mr. Butters would rather not be left outdoors, as he is deaf, and would not be able to hear the world or dangers around him. He would love if his new family could provide him with an array of scratching posts to use daily. If you are interested in finding out more about Charlie, Mr. Butters or the other pets available for adoption from the Ottawa Humane Society, visit www. ottawahumane.ca, call the Adoption Centre at 613-725-3166 ext. 258, or e-mail adoptions@ottawahumane.ca.

Leaving a dog alone in a hot car, even for just a few minutes, can be fatal. Each year, the Ottawa Humane Society (OHS) receives hundreds of calls about dogs left in vehicles on hot summer days. A parked car can quickly become a furnace, even on a mild summer day, endangering an animal’s life and leaving the owner at risk of criminal charges. With only hot air to breathe, a dog’s normal cooling process – panting – doesn’t work. A dog can withstand an internal body temperatures of 40C for only a few minutes before brain damage or death can occur. Last year, we received 325 telephone reports of dogs in cars on hot days, 126 of which lead to warnings and advisories. The OHS Rescue and Investigation Services team removed eight dogs from cars and charged nine individuals, resulting in eight convictions. The OHS will continue to lay charges when animals are found in distress. Signs of canine heatstroke/heat exhaustion include:

Zoe, a 7 year old white German shepherd, is a total Duchess. She isn’t afraid to get a little dirty in order to be one with the common doggies. Zoe has a gentle disposition and lives for her tummy rubs from Daddy. Every dog runs to greet her in the dog walking group and she of course obliges there attention with a romp. A lover of snow, she gleefully rolls in the white fluffy stuff at any chance. It keeps her white coat even whiter and her nose turns pink!

Arts - The sixth annual Greely Legion Country Music Festival promises another toe-tappin, foot-stompin weekend of music and merriment beginning July 26. This year’s outdoor festival, which runs Friday, July 26 to Sunday, July 28, will welcome Douglas, Ont., band The Douglas Connection to headline on Saturday night -- their first performance inside Ottawa proper. “They’ve been at the Shawville festival, but not as far east as Ottawa,” said organizer Linda Wyman. “This is something new in Ottawa, a new entertainment for us.” Other headliners include Howard Hayes, Lauren Hall and Roger Damphousse, and WRD, an Ottawa-area old-time country band that includes local legend Wilf Arsenault. The festival will also welcome the McWilliams Boys from Navan – a set of

six brothers under the age of 12 who will lead the audience in song and step dance.More than 15 performers, bands and country acts will take the stage over the weekend, beginning at 7:30 p.m. on Friday with a performance from WRD. “There’s a good variety,” Wyman said. “There’s a lot of old time music, but there’s some gospel, too -the Gallagher family will be there. We haven’t ventured far from what we’re doing.” Rough camping on the legion’s large property at 8021 Mitch Owens Rd. will open by June 24, and meals will be available at the legion for a nominal cost beginning on Saturday morning. Weekend camper passes are $40 per person in advance or $45 at the gate. Walk-in day passes are $10 on Friday and Sunday and $20 on Saturday. All proceeds will be donated to the Winchester District Memorial Hospital. Wyman said the legion hopes to beat last year’s $4,000 donation.
