krypton has power to save energy John Curry john.curry@metroland.com

CITY HALL NEWS

EMC news - Superhero Superman was born on the fictional planet of Krypton, being rocketed to earth as an infant by his scientist father moments before Krypton’s destruction. And as the saga of Superman reveals, kryptonite, supposedly mineral debris from the planet of Krypton which has been transformed into radioactive material by the forces that destroyed the planet, is the one material, at least green kryptonite, whose radiation nullifies Superman’s powers and immobilizes him. Such is the power associated with the word krypton – it can even disarm Superman. But, of course, there is a real krypton and it is a colourless, odourless, tasteless essentially inert gas that occurs naturally in trace amounts in the atmosphere. It has uses in lighting and photography because of its impact on light. And this is how krypton is associated with what has become Canada’s most energy efficient privately retrofitted rural home which is located on Jock Trail in southwest Goulbourn, west of Richmond. The most recent and last energy saving improvement which homeowner Bill Eggertson has done and which boosted the 3500 square foot home’s EnerGuide for Housing (EGH) rating for energy efficiency to an unheard of and never before attained 90 is the installation of triple-pane windows with double low-E and, you guessed it, krypton gas fill. Yes, Superman, krypton is powerful in this case because its resistance to heat transfer makes it ideal for thermal insulation in windows. See MOST, page 2

Get ready to rock ‘n roll at Village Square John Curry john.curry@metroland.com

EMC news - Village Square Park in Stittsville will be rock ‘n roll heaven this coming Thursday, Aug. 9. That’s because Eddy and the Stringrays, who rocked the park at the summer concert series there last year, will be back again with their wide repertoire of rock ‘n roll hits from the 1950’s and 1960’s. You’ll hear again this year rock ‘n roll standards which could include Jailhouse Rock, Runaround Sue, Rock Around the Clock, Peppermint Twist, Pretty Woman, Kokomo, Whiter Shade of Pale and more. This performance by Eddy and the Stringrays will be the second of three free Concerts in the Park sponsored by Waste Management in conjunction with the city of Ottawa. They will be taking to the stage at 7 p.m. on Thursday, Aug. 9.

Eddy and the Stringrays bills itself as Canada’s No. 1 Rock & Roll Show and Dance Band and it’s hard to dispute this when you have seen them perform. Eddy and the Stringrays have been together for 32 years now, having been formed in 1980. They are known for their showmanship, choreography and comedic flair, playing tunes made famous by such legends as Elvis Presley, Buddy Holly, the Beach Boys and the Beatles. Renowned for their vocals and musicianship, they perform doo-wop, tear jerkers and rock ‘n roll standards. They also cover other musical styles such as the 1970’s classic rock tunes. Eddy and the Stingrays have played as far afield as Georgia, Massachusetts and Alberta. They have played with such stars as Chubby Checker, the Five Man Electrical Band and Trooper.

The group has produced several CD’s including “Alive ‘n Jivin’,” a CD featuring music from live shows from late 2007. Eddy and the Stringrays is comprised of Eddy “Fingers” Fontana who does lead vocals and lead guitar; Frankie California who plays bass guitar and backs the vocals; Buddy Love who plays the guitar and does lead and backing vocals; and Tommy Schnare, the drummer who also does lead and backing vocals. Those planning to attend this free concert at Village Square on Thursday, Aug. 9 at 7 p.m. are reminded to take along a lawn chair or blanket for seating. Wearing your dancing shoes in case you just get carried away by the music and feel that you have to dance might also be a good idea. Concert goers are reminded that the concert will go ahead, rain or shine.

This 7 p.m. concert, just like the others in this free Thursday evening free summer series, will be preceded by a cash BBQ that will begin at 6 p.m. under the auspices of Stittsville’s youth connexion program. All funds generated by the BBQ will go to support local youth programming iniatitives. Donations to the Children’s Hospital of Eastern Ontario (CHE)) are also being collected at these Thursday evening concerts. The concert series will conclude with a performance by Captain Fantastic, an Elton John cover band, on Thursday, Aug. 16, again at 7 p.m. at Village Square Park. Captain Fantastic will be playing songs from Elton John’s long career, reproducing the sound that Elton John has made famous. If you are an Elton John fan, you won’t want to miss this Aug. 16th concert.

Most energy efficient retrofitted home in Canada Continued from page 1

John Curry photo

Bill Eggertson stands outside his home on Jock Trail in Goulbourn west of Richmond. The home has achieved the highest score for energy efficient for a renovated older home in Canada. ergy and the environment in the works. He is currently working on a black box that would allow him to access his rooftop solar panels for home consumption if there were a major hydro outage, such as the 1998 ice storm. This would allow him to run his house and also be a source of battery regeneration for neighbours. But right now, this could not happen because the solar panel system is tightly controlled. If the hydro system into which it feeds

goes down, it automatically shuts off. So Mr. Eggertson is developing a black box to allow access to the solar panels in the case of major outages but it still needs approvals before it can be implemented. This is not all that he has underway. He is working on a vertical rain barrel that would not only capture rain water like the typical round rain barrel but because of its height up the side of a house, it would

provide naturally the water pressure that would operate a hose or sprinkler. For more details about Mr. Eggertson’s energy efficient home, check out the website http://my-green-home.ca Mr. Eggertson has worked as a senior executive or consultant for five national renewable energy associations, has written for the top renewable energy magazines in Britain and the United States and has worked on climate change for the British government.

He has been peer-selected twice as “Association Executive of the Year” and is one of the 250 Canadians trained by former United States vicepresident Al Gore on the implications of global warming. He serves on the Environmental Advisory Committee of the city of Ottawa. His long commitment to the principles of environmental stewardship led to his selection as a torchbearer for the 2010 Olympic Games in Vancouver.

These new south-facing krypton gas filled windows have, in fact, made the solar blinds which had been in use with the previous windows unnecessary for energy efficiency purposes. Mr. Eggertson may put them up again for privacy purposes but even this has a downside for him as it would block the view of the home’s spacious yard which is filled with eye-pleasing greenery thanks to over 50 trees planted by his wife and is adjacent to the Jock River. He sees no reason to block off these exterior views with blinds, especially since both he and his wife enjoy looking out their spacious windows and feeling at one with their natural exterior surroundings. But krypton gas filled energy efficient windows are just one of the many steps which Mr. Eggertson took to make his home the most energy efficient older rural home in all of Canada. Just how energy efficient is the home? The average EGH (EnerGuide for Housing) rating for homes in Ontario that were built in 1985 is 66. New R-2000 homes have an EGH rating of 80. And Mr. Eggertson’s home has achieved a rating of 90. The previous high rating for this type of retrofitted home is believed to have been 87. How has Mr. Eggertson achieved this since purchasing the home in 2006? His home energy improvements have ranged from upgrading insulation to installing a geothermal heat pump to his krypton gas filled windows. They have all been market ready, available materials or systems. And while he readily admits to be “dorky” in his ap-

proach to energy efficiency, something which is understandable in light of his 30 year working career involved with renewable energies and climate change, his house and its energy saving features do not require any special talents to run. If you know how to use a programmable thermostat, for instance, and have enough sense to know when to switch from heating mode to cooling mode, then you can live in such a house. Mr. Eggertson says that he got a big “bang for the buck,” as it were, by installing a geothermal heat pump which involved the installation of an underground loop system in his yard. This system provides all of the hot water and all of the hating and cooling for the home, with about a seven year payback period. But he also notes that he probably got his “biggest bang for the buck” by simply sealing off with insulation the upper foundation cavity in the basement, a task which took him and his daughter just two days to do. This decreased air leakage. While saving energy on the one hand, Mr. Eggertson’s home is also generating energy on the other hand. The home was the first in Eastern Ontario to mount 10 KW of solar panels on its roof under the provincial microFIT tariff program. So he is feeding energy generated by the home’s rooftop solar panels into the hydro grid. So, not only is the home not producing excessive carbon emissions due to its energy efficiency renovations but also it is providing green energy to the electrical system. It is more than doing its share in battling greenhouse gas emissions and their impact on climate change. But Mr. Eggertson still has some projects related to en-

At program in Kingston John Curry

EMC news - Brooke Zacharuk of Stittsville is a 17 year old honour student entering

grade 12 this September who plays ringette, is artistic and plays both the guitar and violin. And, lo and behold, she is also an ostrich.

John Curry photo

Rotary Club of Ottawa – Stittsville member Alfredo Patricio, right, presents Brooke Zacharuk, left, with a gift of appreciation for the presentation about the Rotary Youth Leadership Awards program which she made to the Club at its meeting on Tuesday, July 24.

What, you say? Yes, that’s right, an ostrich, the bird renowned for burying its head in the sand. Brooke learned that she was an ostrich when she attended the recent Rotary Youth Leadership Awards (RYLA) program in Kingston and attended a presentation that explained how people deal with conict in their lives by comparing them to different birds. So, there is the ostrich which tries to stay oblivious to the conict. There’s the parakeet, more concerned about the relationship affected than anything else; there’s the owl, concerned about both the relationship and the conict and talking the issue through; there’s the woodpecker, concerned only about the conict and not the relationship; and the hummingbird, who seeks a fast, quick paced solution, somewhere in the middle. This presentation about conict resolution and how people deal with conict,

comparing them to different birds, was just one of the presentations which Brooke heard at the recent RYLA program which she attended thanks to the sponsorship of the Rotary Club of Ottawa – Stittsville. There was a presentation about Rotary and what the organization has done, such as trying to eliminate polio in the world, and an explanation of the principles of Rotary and how they apply in everyday life. She also heard a presentation dealing with ethics and how ethics is the foundation that supports both skills and knowledge. Doing the right thing is always paramount but ethics as formed by personal morality determines what this right thing to do is. Yet another presentation dealt with sustainability in

the environment, noting that many are more concerned now about fads and materialistic things than with family and friends, two things that really bring people joy in their lives. About 20 youth attended this RYLA program in Kingston which featured a group picnic to wind up the three day weekend event. It gave all of the participants an opportunity to sit around together and talk about world issues and what they would like to change in the world. Brooke said that all of the participants became close over the course of the weekend and now they are all part of a Facebook group that keeps in contact with each other. Brooke herself enjoyed the conference. “I thought it was a great opportunity,� she told the Rotary

Club of Ottawa – Stittsville members during a presentation about her RYLA experience at the Club’s meeting on Tuesday, July 24. She advised that the Rotary Club should try to make the RYLA program better known so that more youth would become aware of the opportunity to attend. She said that next year she would love to talk to youth interested in attending so that she can tell them how good of an experience it was this year. The Rotary Youth Leadership Awards (RYLA) program is a leadership training program for young people from ages 14 through 30, although usually the age range is less. For instance, this year’s group was in the age 17 to 20 range. The RYLA program emphasizes leadership, citizenship and personal growth.

Most of these bursaries were provided by the Stittsville Legion Branch 618 from its poppy campaign funds. These funds are meant to support veterans and their dependents. All of these recipients of bursaries from poppy funds are related to veterans. The Ladies’ Auxiliary of the Stittsville Legion awarded a couple of these bursaries while the Survivors Club and the Legion’s 55 Plus Club also provide funding for bursaries. Recipients of these post-secondary school bursaries from the Legion are all expected to volunteer a minimum of two hours in the Legion’s annual poppy campaign.

Beer, wine don’t belong on every corner

A

re they drunk? The Ontario Convenience Stores Association is pressing the province to allow corner stores to sell beer and wine. At first blush the idea seems attractive, offering the convenience of more locations to pick up our libations. Some convenience stores in rural locations are already licensed to sell beer and wine. And of course corner store owners love the idea. The ability to sell alcoholic

beverages can only serve to drive more traffic to these small businesses; customers who will potentially buy other items. But while this argument may offer a lot of dollars (for corner store owners), it is lacking in sense. There’s a reason why the sale of wine and beer is restricted to limited locations. Easier access to beer and wine translates into easier access for those who are underage. Loosening the restriction on where beer and wine may

be sold will provide more opportunities for youth to obtain alcoholic drinks. If Ontario follows the example of Quebec and puts beer and wine in convenience stores, teens will have a wide variety of outlets to choose from, where they can hang around outside and pester adults for a litre of wine or a six-pack of beer. The consumption of alcohol causes more problems than other drugs used recreationally, so why would we want to make it easier for our

children to obtain it? According to a 2010 report by Britain’s Independent Scientific Committee on Drugs, alcohol is a more dangerous drug than both crack cocaine and heroin when the combined harms to the user and to others are assessed. According to MADD, following the privatization of alcohol sales in Alberta, Calgary police reported a rise in impaired driving charges and family violence in areas of the city with the highest concentration of liquor stores.

Don’t be swayed by the argument that ease of access will translate into lower prices. There’s no guarantee that prices will lower or even that the selection available will be as good as at the Beer Store or LCBO. Without that guarantee this is an idea not even worth discussing. Keep in mind that the average corner store won’t have the shelf space to provide a wide selection. Customers may be stuck with a few major brands of beer, two white wines and two reds. Even though purchases would be more convenient for some people, a reduced selection

and no price advantage is no improvement on today. The price of alcoholic beverages sold at corner stores may even go up compared to those sold at LCBO stores. Who sells a bottle of Pepsi for less – a large grocery store or a small corner store? If they catch the premier during a tipsy moment and this idea flies, what happens if it turns out to have been a big mistake? It may prove difficult to take away licences to sell booze if they are handed out. Ontario Premier Dalton McGuinty has already rejected the idea. We should all raise a glass and offer him a toast.

Week 41, still waiting for baby BRYNNA LESLIE Capital Muse

I

’m 41 weeks pregnant and I’ve decided pregnancy is now my permanent state of being. For those of you who don’t know, 41 weeks means I am exactly one week past my due date. It also means that, for the past four weeks, I’ve been on tenterhooks: anticipating baby’s arrival at any moment, thinking every cramp from a bad strawberry is a contraction, altering my labour plan daily to make sure we had a neighbour on-call to look after our older children, unsure how far to drive or to travel as a passenger. Every morning I wake up with leg and back cramps. Until I stretch for five minutes, I’m pretty sure it’s “time.� Every morning I’ve been wrong. Every evening, I make sure camp lunches are diligently made, the bathroom is relatively tidy, and all the laundry folded or hidden in a cupboard. I’ve decided what people call “nesting,� is actually unsustainably impeccable housekeeping driven by the fear that strangers may come to the house at any moment. The first weeks around my due date, my husband was pretty patient. “No rush,� he said. He was on VBPL (vacation before parental leave) and using the time to complete a few things on his long list of home renovations. On a hot July weekend just before my due date, we decided it really wasn’t the best weekend to have a baby, as everyone we knew seemed to be out of town, including my midwife. “Let’s wait until Tuesday,� we decided, and we went to the beach. Tuesday came and went. Another weekend loomed. “Let’s wait until after the weekend,�

we said. “No rush.� We watched movies, did some gardening, made pies and did other activities that one can only do with a family of four. Before we knew it, Monday arrived. “Monday’s not a good day to have a baby,� I said. “We’re always rushed on Mondays. Besides, we have relatives in town for supper tomorrow. Let’s wait until Wednesday.� And then it was Wednesday. And I was officially a week overdue. And here I am. Everyone, except my husband and children, consider me to be “quite cheerful� under the circumstances. They all ask me how I’m feeling and pat my belly as if it’s public property. They tell me I look great, and I’m “all baby,� that “there’s no fat on me� (they haven’t seen my thighs), and ask me how long I can go before the baby makes its arrival. And everybody generously shares details about their labour and birth horror stories – to make me feel better about the whole dreaded process, I suppose. Although people are very kind, and I’m sure they mean well, their condescension makes me feel, frankly, like a bit of a freak. But really, it’s not too hard to make a 9.25months’ pregnant woman feel a little weird: I’m already carrying an extra 32 pounds; in the last couple of weeks, waddling has become a more natural way to put one foot in front of the other; and boy, you should see me in a bathing suit! I’ve maintained my public game face – “all I want is a healthy baby whenever it’s ready to arrive� – but admittedly, I’m ready to reclaim my uterus. I wasn’t sure how to start the conversation with baby to let it know it’s time for it to make a move. Then out of the blue, a friend posted something unusually supportive on my Facebook wall. “Your timing is perfect and elegant,� she wrote, quoting Regena Thomashauer, owner of Mama Gena’s School of Womanly Arts. I read it aloud to baby. Let’s see what today brings. Charles Gordon’s column will return.

What’s up, doc, in the village of Stittsville? EMC news – The Goulbourn Township Historical Society is looking for any artifacts/items celebrating Queen Elizabeth or the Royal Family, with the goal of borrowing them for display at an open house entitled “The Queen – A Celebration” which the Historical Society and the Goulbourn Museum are planning to hold on Saturday, Oct. 20 at the Stittsville branch of the Ottawa Public Library. Anyone with items that would prove interesting at this event should contact Georgia Derrick of the Historical Society at 613-8367931…Bob Slack, who was the first principal of Holy Spirit Catholic School in Stittsville when it began in 1988, has been elected president and director for Ontario for the term 2012-2014 of the Canadian Snowbird Association (CSA). A former Richmond resident

who now lives in Athens, Ontario, Mr. Slack served on Goulbourn Township council in the first term after the amalgamation in 1974 that created the new municipality out of the former municipal villages of Stittsville and Richmond and the former rural Goulbourn township. The Canadian Snowbird Association is a national not-for-profit advocacy organization which works to defend and improve the rights and privileges of Canadian travelers…Work on installing traffic signals at the intersection of Stittsville Main Street and Wintergreen Drive/ Mulkins Street is scheduled to begin in early August. It has been a long wait for these traffic signals as their installation has been an issue going back to the late 1980’s. Longtime Wyldewood Homeowners Association president, the late Andy Dunlop, advocated for these traf-

fic signals over the years. These traffic signals will not only assist the flow of traffic in and out of the Wyldewood subdivision via Wintergreen Drive but will also make it easier for traffic exiting from Mulkins Street after visiting either the Johnny Leroux Stittsville Community Arena, Alexander Grove park or St. Andrew’s Presbyterian Church…The Rotary Club of Ottawa – Stittsville has donated $100 to the Ottawa Power Wheelchair Hockey League to help it with expenses related to its hosting of the North American Championships this coming weekend…Rev.

He will be formally installed as pastor on Sunday, Aug. 12 when Ottawa Archbishop Terrence Prendergast will be at the church to perform the ceremony.

Warrior time at Laval Soccer Cup Special to the News

EMC sports - It was Warrior time at the Laval International Soccer Cup this year. That’s where the West Ottawa Warriors U10T1 Girls won gold by going undefeated in the recent two day tournament. The team’s work ethic and team play were both put to the test in the tournament, especially in the championship game against the St. Leonard team. Add in heat and fatigue and it was a real challenging experience but the Warriors, with their tenacity, prevailed by a 2-1 score, winning tournament gold. It was a relieved – and proud – coach Alex St. Jean who summed up his team’s efforts after its championship win. “My girls played hard and consistently all weekend,” he said. “I told them all to believe in themselves.” “They know now they have the abilities and skills to be successful,” he said about the Warrior players. The Warriors entered the tournament down three players on their roster but nonetheless the team earned a first place finish in round robin play with a perfect record of four wins and no losses. The team’s technical skills and self

confidence seemed to improve with each game, setting up the team well for the gold medal game. Throughout the tournament the Warriors showed strong chemistry between its forwards and defensive players, along with solid goaltending. Striker Saumyaa Richi had a strong tournament, receiving great support from her wing mates Makena Barker, Courtney Neilson and Adrienne Jones. The Warriors’ Rebecca Harford and Sarah Doiron dominated mid-field play, showing endless energy and leadership. Their solid offensive and defensive performance controlled the tempo of play in the games. The Warriors’ defensive trio of Sophie Bernier, Mackenzie Gordon and Lauren Reid won battles for the ball through hard play and restricting the opponent’s freedom of movement. The trio provided support and offensive reinforcement when needed throughout the tournament. And, to top it all off, goalie Alessandra Lacroix anchored the team’s play with strong performances in the Warriors’ net. Added all together, it was a formula for golden success in this Laval International Soccer Cup Tournament.

Artist Rosemary Holt likes doing ‘personal art’ John Curry john.curry@metroland.com

EMC news - The term “tennis elbow” suggests a strong link to sports but it is not confined to athletes. Just ask artist Rosemary Holt who suffered from this condition caused by longtime repetitive motions due to her coloured pencil drawings. Indeed, she has tended to give up this form of art in favour of painting and its freer brush strokes

which have proven easier on her arm. Of course, her work remains very detailed, with the exhibition of her work which was on display at the ArtSpace wall at the Stittsville branch of the Ottawa Public Library for the month of July being a good representation of her work. The exhibit included a Tuscany architectural scene, a landscape featuring an old

truck and a barn, several of her personalized art pieces such as a pair of skates and a stroller filled with a trio of antique toys and a series of four pieces of fruit, all on their own. Rosemary’s work can also be seen on exhibit at the Glen Scottish Restaurant in Stittsville. Rosemary Holt has been drawing or painting for her whole life but it was only

about ten years ago that she started taking courses to formalize her art knowledge. And it has only been in the last year or so that she has really focused on her art, putting her work on exhibit and chalking up some sales. Having such a focus on art, though, is not unfamiliar for Rosemary as her father, R.J. Mitchell, has been a successful artist in England for over 50 years. The series of four pieces of fruit which were on display at the Stittsville library came about when Rosemary was looking for paintings for the kitchen when she moved to Stittsville three years ago. She ended up doing the paintings of fruit which she found to be very simple and effective and she says look great on a kitchen wall. She likes to and does paint

people’s personal items which she finds make unique gifts for retirements or other special occasions. So she has done a pen and ink drawing of a pair of golf shoes which she called “Robert’s Essentials” and which became a gift at his retirement. She has also done a drawing of her grandson’s hockey skates, again a very personal thing. Doing this “personal art” appeals to her, she says. Besides doing these drawings of personal items, Rosemary also likes to paint buildings. “I love doing architectural stuff as well – buildings,” she says, noting that when she returns to England on a visit, she takes photographs of buildings and their architectural details there which she then uses for her painting. She re-

cently sold, for instance, a set of four paintings of English lampposts which happened in this way. The display at the Stittsville library also included a clay bust of one of her grandsons which she did a number of years ago. It was the only time that she did any sculpturing and while she enjoyed doing it at the time, she has not done any since, focusing instead on her paintings and drawings. She describes her art as being detailed, a trait that has always been part of her art. She says that she draws or paints exactly what she sees which results in such detailed work. Rosemary Holt, who operates under the name “Acorn Illustrations,” can be contacted at rosemaryhlt@yahoo.ca or at 613-599-2075.

July 30th, 2012 Suburban Lens Stittsville Tour I am a member of the City’s Intensification Implementation Working Group (IIWG) which is comprised of five City Councillors and City Planning staff. As part of the IIWG, Councillor Harder who represents Barrhaven and myself, have undertaken a Suburban Lens review to have planning staff provide a thorough review of planning issues with new developments. On July 26, myself, along with Councillor Harder, Councillor Hobbs and members of the Planning & Growth Management Department, took a tour of Stittsville for them to see firsthand the issues that we face. In theory and on paper plans the City policies make sense. However, in practice this is not always the case. Some adjustments may be needed to make and that is one of the major reasons for this IIWG group as well as the group tour through Stittsville. Some of the main issues of discussion were regarding parking issues, landscaping plans and the placement of utilities. Councillor Harder and I will continue to work on the Suburban Lens with City staff and will be making changes to the current plans and policies to ensure that proper growth is undertaken in the City’s suburban areas. Thank you to everyone that came out to Stittsville to participate on the tour. Wintergreen/Mulkins & Stittsville Main Traffic Signal You may have noticed some markings on the sidewalks at Wintergreen and Mulkins. I was recently advised by staff in the Traffic Department that in early August work will begin on this traffic light. This is good news for the community as this new traffic signal will assist residents to exit from the Wyldewood community as well as residents using the Johnny Leroux Stittsville Community Arena and Alexander Grove Park. Through continuing efforts and advocacy for this control signal, a positive action has emerged from the community and myself. 2011-2014 City of Ottawa Strategic Plan The 2011–2014 City of Ottawa Strategic Plan provides a common focus for Council and staff over the next four years, ensuring that the City’s programs and services address the changing needs of our community. The Strategic Plan is available to the public on the City of Ottawa website at www.ottawa.ca. Maple Grove Status Update I have been in touch with Mattamy Homes staff in their construction department involved in this project for a timeline on the installation of the sidewalks there. Previously we were advised that there was a construction start time of July 17th. However, due to delays in approval from various agencies Mattamy staff are hoping to begin construction around August 27th. I will keep you updated as more details become available in my column and on my website at http://www.shadqadri.com/ plan_res.htm. Are You Aware of Green Flashing Lights? The green flashing light means volunteer firefighters are responding to a call in the community. It is imperative that drivers pull over as much to the right as possible and ensure all intersections are clear.

Helping Ontario Spaniel Rescue Special to the News

EMC news - The Ontario Spaniel Rescue came to Stittsville last Saturday, July 28. A fundraising event for Ontario Spaniel Rescue was held at Pet Valu at the Crossing Bridge Square plaza at the corner of Stittsville Main Street and Carp Road in Stittsville. Manon Demers was on hand to cut a dog’s nails for five dollars or shave a dog’s face and also cut the nails for a ten dollar donation to Ontario Spaniel Rescue. Krysta Williams, founder of Ontario Spaniel Rescue, was on hand at the event

along with several volunteers to provide information about the Ontario Spaniel Rescue and its services. Ontario Spaniel Rescue is a non-profit organization based in Ottawa that is committed to rescuing homeless and abandoned dogs, aiding shelters and assisting dog owners who can no longer care for their spaniels. Dogs can be adopted through Ontario Spaniel Rescue, with all of the dogs offered for adoption being fully vetted including vaccines, sterilization and heart worm prevention. Ontario Spaniel Rescue rescues dogs in need and provide them with loving care

until new homes are found for them. Ontario Spaniel Rescue also provides information about responsible pet ownership, including the importance of spay/ neuter, good veterinary care, proper behaviour training and good nutrition. Spaniels are a breed of dog known for its long silky coat and drooping ears. In years past, spaniels were bred to flush game out of dense brush. By the late 17th century, spaniels had become specialized into both water and land breeds. Ontario Spaniel Rescue can be contacted at ontariospanielrescue@gmail. com

Our fire services have been under a lot of pressure over the last while doubling all of the forest and brush fires. They should be commended for a job well done! I want to thank everyone involved to all of our emergency services, paramedics, police and firefighters. I would also like to pass on my thanks and congratulations to the City’s emergency management team for their excellent communications both with our services and the Councillor’s offices. Tick Removal Information from Ottawa Public Health Lyme disease is an infection caused by bacteria transmitted through the bite of an infected tick. The number of ticks capable of spreading Lyme disease in Ottawa is low, but researchers believe the number could increase as climate changes bring milder winters. The first symptom of infection is a rash at the site of the tick bite that appears 3 to 30 days after exposure. The rash can resemble a bull’s eye and can measure up to 30 cm across. It is not usually painful. Lyme disease is treated with antibiotics. For more information on prevention and treatment, call Ottawa Public Health at 613-580-6744.

Buddhist flag displayed at Cambodian Buddhist Temple Special to the News

EMC news - At the United Contribution Ceremony at the Cambodian Buddhist Temple on Hazeldean Road in Stittsville on Sunday, July 15, miniature Buddhist flags were omnipresent. They were displayed around the top of each of the tents which col-

lectively created a canopy over the Temple’s outdoor meeting space where the ceremony was held. This Buddhist flag was designed in the late 19th century to symbolize and represent Buddhism. It is now used by Buddhists throughout the world. It was originally designed in 1885

by the Colombo Committee in Colombo, Sri Lanka. It was at the inaugural conference of the World Fellowship of Buddhists in 1950 that the flag was adopted as the flag of Buddhists throughout the world. The six vertical bands of the flag represent the six colours of the aura

which Buddhists believe emanated from the body of the Buddha when he attained Enlightenment. The colours are blue for loving kindness, peace and universal compassion; yellow for the middle path, avoiding extremes; red for the blessings of practice, namely achievement, wisdom, virtue, fortune and dignity;

white for the purity of Dharma, leading to liberation; and orange representing the Buddha’s teachings. The sixth vertical band of the flag is made up of a combination of rectangular bands of the five other colours and represents a compound of the other five colours in the aura’s spectrum.

Exactly one year ago, Jeannette On September 8, Corriveau, now Corriveau was diagnosed with 53, will Ride the Rideau alongside breast cancer. Dr. Segal. “I was shocked. I’m an avid cyclist and a very healthy, active woman with no history of breast cancer in my family,” said the Stittsville resident.

She got another big surprise when she walked into her oncologist’s office and realized that Dr. Roanne Segal – a woman she knew from her spin class – would be her physician in her cancer journey. She underwent a lumpectomy and began radiation at the end of August 2011. The radiation ended just before Christmas.

Cupcakes at concert John Curry john.curry@metroland.com

EMC news - It was a cupcake concert at Scrumptious Creative Catering in Stittsville last Friday evening, July 27. Even the members of the band, the newly named Garden of Weeds, enjoyed cupcake treats during the break after their first set. It was all thanks to a Kids Cupcake Zone which Scrumptious added to the attractions at this second free Open Air Concert of the summer, held at the table-filled front lawn and adjacent outdoor stage of the Stittsville Main Street catering firm. That’s why cupcakes took a prominent place beside the free lemonade, coffee and samples of goodies which also were on hand for the concert crowd on this sunny, warm July evening. Scrumptious set up a cupcake decorating area right in the kitchen area at its facility. Youngsters and others could grab a freshly baked cupcake, add whatever frosting was desired and then spruce it all up with candy sprinkles. The result - instant custom made cupcakes that were a real hit with the youngsters there as well as any adventurous adults. All of this was the backdrop to the entertain-

ment of the evening which was provided by the trio of Skyler Radmore, Adam Traversy and Greg Higgins with their voices, their guitars and a bongo-type drum. This is a newly formed band called Garden of Weeds, a combination of two former bands, Plush Garden and Weeds. The band claims to play music inspired by the great bands of the past and a few good bands of today. The band can be hired for engagements of any kind. Check out Garden of Weeds.com on the web or The Garden of Weeds on Facebook. Jeff Robinson of Scrumptious Creative Catering had heard the band play at Local Heroes at Crossing Bridge Plaza in Stittsville and signed the band up for this second of four planned free open air concerts this summer at Scrumptious Creative Catering. Fifteen tables with white table cloths and floral centerpieces were set up on the front lawn at Scrumptious Creative Catering and even this was not enough as a few concert-goers and youngsters sat on the grass near the expansive maple tree that is a landmark on the front lawn. People came and went throughout the three hour concert which began at 6 p.m. with a 9 p.m. scheduled conclusion.

Stittsville beavers back in spotlight Special to the News

EMC news - Beavers are again in the spotlight in Stittsville. A demonstration was scheduled last Monday, July 30 at noon at the Human Rights Monument at Ottawa city hall where defenders of the beavers in the pond at Paul Lindsay Park in Stittsville called for the city not to harm or harass the remaining beaver and her two kits. This beaver, named Lily by her supporters, and her two kits, named Hope and Harmony, are now without a lodge at the pond since city of Ottawa

workers destroyed it on the Canada Day weekend. Without a home and without a partner who had been named Lucky who may have died when the lodge was destroyed, the beaver and her two kits are now vulnerable to attack by dogs and predators. Attempts by Lily to rebuild the lodge have been thwarted by city of Ottawa workers who have destroyed these attempts. The beaver supporters are asking that the city place a moratorium on the trapping and killing of beaver until the city releases a new wildlife

strategy which hopefully will include the use of humane, non-lethal methods for managing beaver in city waterways and ponds The city of Ottawa, for its part, maintains that no beaver were living in the lodge when it was destroyed by city workers on Friday, June 29, just before Canada Day. The city states that beaver were seen coming to the pond at Paul Lindsay Park from elsewhere. The beaver supporters dispute this and argue that with the drought and dried up waterways, beaver cannot relocate from the pond.

Stittsville News EMC - Thursday, August 2, 2012 27

SPORTS

In order for me to experience the entire operation, my role was more of an Assistant Supervisor to Mel Foster. Mel, along with his wife Davonne, operates the farm in partnership with his parents, Greg & Shirley, who started the family business 40 years ago. My day at the farm started at 6am on a beautiful day fresh from a dumping of rain the night before. Yes, it actually rained. The busiest time of the day at Foster Family Farm definitely seems to be first thing in the morning. By the time I arrived, workers were already out picking fresh vegetables for the day, getting ready to pack the trucks and deliver them to the stands throughout the region. Foster’s operates stands in Nepean, Alta Vista, Kemptville, Barrhaven, and two in Smiths Falls. They pick all of their vegetables fresh daily to sell. One of the really great things they do at Foster’s is the Community Supported Agriculture program. The CSA program closes the gap between the customer and the farmer by providing a weekly supply of fresh vegetables to customers, which now total 150. I helped out packing CSA boxes with fresh corn, beans, onions, lettuce, cabbage, jalapeno peppers and broccoli before they were sent out to their pickup locations in Kanata and Nepean. It was a great experience to work at Foster Family Farm for the day and learn more about what they do in our community and how they help get locally grown produce onto dinner tables throughout the city. I also learned a lot about the challenges they face, especially in conditions we have experienced this summer, as well as what role the City plays in their operation. To learn more about Foster Family Farm and their CSA program, visit www.fosterfamilyfarm.ca. You can also follow them on Twitter @FosterFamFarm. Thanks to Mel for inviting me and giving me the opportunity to work with you for the day. My next job is this week at the Richmond Cooperative Nursery School.

EMC sports - The Canadian Golf and Country Club is the place. Saturday, Aug. 25 is the date. The ninth annual Tori Carswell Memorial Golf Tournament is the event. It is hoped that this year’s tournament will raise over $34,000, just like every tournament since 2006 has done. Indeed, over $300,000 has been raised by these tournaments since they began in 2004. Again this year all of the proceeds from the tournament will go to Tori’s Helping Hand which was established in 2005 and is part of the Candlelighters Childhood Cancer Support Programs Inc. It provides funds to palliative care oncology children and their families as well as to families whose children require a transplant. The funds for palliative children helps the families provide much needed comfort in their child’s last days. This comfort might come in the way of a comfortable chair, a spa visit, a puppy or other desired item. Anyone who would like to participate in this year’s tournament on Saturday, Aug. 25 should email Kim or Paul Carswell at kcarswell@rogers.com or contact them at 613-836-2183. Sponsors and volunteers are also welcomed as well.

Last year’s eighth annual tournament, also held at the Canadian Golf and Country Club, saw $35,117 raised. The posttournament evening was MC’d by Michael O’Byrne from CTV Ottawa. The winning team of golfers at last year’s tournament consisted of Paul Carswell, Steve Carswell, Ian Riggs and Don Cumming. The second place team included Gerry Chenier, Rick Raymond, Richard Dinelle and Gary Theoret. Most honest golfers in last year’s tournament were Steve Rogers, Jen Lanthier, Nicky-Lanthier Rogers and Buzz Lanthier-Rogers. This tournament and Tori’s Helping Hand are named after Tori Carswell of Stittsville who died of a childhood cancer called neuroblastoma in Jan. 2004. Funds raised by friends, family and the community of Stittsville ensured that Tori had some special moments during her last weeks of life. This is what inspired the Carswell family to set up Tori’s Helping Hand so that other palliative care oncology children could enjoy the same experience. The $18,000 raised by the tournament in its initial year of 2004 went to the Neuroblastoma Research Fund and the Children’s Wish Foundation. Since 2005, the funds raised by the

The challenge gets underway at 10:00 so come out and cheer us on. Of note, my brother is being paired with the Mayor so I’ll have the satisfaction of defeating the Mayor and my brother all at the same time. The market is also pleased to support the sale of “Buns in the Oven” cook book by Pam Collacott that day. All of the proceeds from the sale of the books will be go to the Buns in the Oven, a prenatal nutrition program for pregnant youth. The North Gower Farmers’ Market can be found in the Big Red Barn in the village of North Gower. This authentic country market has more than fifty vendors selling everything from produce, meat and eggs and all kinds of homemade baking to cutting boards, pottery and jewellery along with a great café offering both breakfast and lunch. The Market is located at 2397 Roger Stevens Drive and is open from 8:30 to 1:00 every Saturday until Thanksgiving.

tournament have been directed to Tori’s Helping Hand. Tori Carswell was born in 1994 but she began having back and leg pains after turning five years old. That’s when she was diagnosed with Stage IV Neuroblastoma – she was just three weeks shy of her sixth birthday. Tori underwent many rounds of chemotherapy, surgery, radiation and a stem cell transplant. In the summer and fall of 2001, the community of Stittsville along with family and friends rallied around Tori, with over $100,000 raised to assist with medical and travel costs as treatment had to be found outside of Canada. She underwent an experimental type of treatment in New York City. But despite this and other treatments, the spread of the disease could not be halted. After a family Christmas in 2003, her health quickly deteriorated and she passed away on Jan. 16, 2004. But her lasting legacy is her infectious smile and passion for life which inspired so many as did the courage and strength that she exhibited throughout her battle with cancer. Her memory is carried on through Tori’s Helping Hand and this annual Tori Carswell Memorial Golf Tournament.

The North Gower Farmer’s Market will be hosting a Celebrity Cook-Off Challenge on August 4th which will pit Mayor Jim Watson and CTV Ottawa News anchor Carole Anne Meehan against yours truly. Each team will be working with ingredients provided by Market vendors. We will each be paired with a local chef, namely; George Ebrahim, a retired chef who is a favourite of customers to the Market for his middle eastern fare; Steve Moffatt, co-owner and head chef at the Marlborough Pub and Eatery and, coincidentally, my brother; and Pam Collacott, a local cookbook author. I’m told communication skills and a sense of humour will be definite assets so I’m hoping this serves me well in my attempt to become the North Gower Farmers’ Market Top Chef!

It has been almost a year since I began spending a day a month working a different job throughout Rideau-Goulbourn. On July 24th, I had the pleasure of wrapping up the first year of work by spending the day at the Foster Family Farm on Lockhead Road West in North Gower. This was my 12th work experience as part of the Councillor For Hire initiative and was my second at a farm, but instead of working at a 5,000 acre farm, I was at the Foster’s 400 acre produce farm.

EMC sports - It’s not like beer is the most important thing in the world to me – I really do love my wife and kids more – but it was still nice to see Canadian being served at Canada House in London Thursday, July 26. It was a wildly Canadian atmosphere, after all, chockfull of optimism on the outskirts of Trafalgar Square and with the official opening of the 2012 Summer Olympic Games looming just over a day away.

And while it was nice to see such dignitaries as Marcel Aubut and Dick Pound in attendance, it probably meant even more to the few 2012 Olympians on hand to see the likes of Alexandre Bilodeau and Catriona Le May Doan. It’s people like them, after all, who are inspiring to the current crop of Olympians – or at least they should be considering both are Winter Olympic champions. And it sure was interesting to hear Bilodeau refer to Whitby’s Kelita Zupancic

Even though it’s the Games, just enjoy it.� Zupancic has been singularly focused on the task for countless years, dating back to when she was nine and saw her now-coach Nicolas Gill win a silver medal at the 2000 Games in Sydney, Australia. But, as obvious as that killer look is in her eyes, it’s nice also to see the glint. Cheers to that, mate.

EMC sports - There are few things more Canadian than hockey and moose, and both can be easily spotted outside Team Canada’s residence within the Olympic Village. A big red moose statue stands proudly – and permanently throughout the 2012 Olympics – just outside the doorway of Canada’s 11-floor building that is decorated with flags and huge C-A-N-A-D-A letters running down the middle-floor balconies. Off to the side are a couple of hockey nets, which were being put to good use during a media tour of the village on Thursday, July 26. Among the players was Thomas Gossland, a Vancouver swimmer who doesn’t normally play the game, but was having a blast nonetheless as he gears up for his 4x100metre freestyle relay race on Sunday. “I don’t know who brought them, but I just saw the nets and a few hours later there were sticks out,� Gossland said during a brief break in the action. “It’s awesome,� he said when asked his impression of the village so far, two days into his visit. “It was really overwhelming to come here. I’ve never been to a Games environment before, but everything in Canada House from what I can see is set up great, and the dining hall is huge. It’s pretty overwhelming. I’ve already been to the aquatic centre and it’s gi-normous. It’s pretty exciting too.� The village as a whole is a remarkable feat of planning and engineering, the culmination of a process that began shortly after London learned of its successful bid some seven years ago. The idea is to provide all the

Fast facts about the Olympic Village • 2,818 townhouses and apartments • Peak time, there will be about 16,000 residents • The design echoes London’s tradition of building homes around communal squares and courtyards • 22,000 pillows, 28,000 duvets • Each apartment has its own lounge • No more than two athletes per bedroom • Food to be consumed in the village includes 25,000 loaves of bread, 232 tonnes of potatoes, 75,000 litres of milk and more than 330 tonnes of fruit and vegetables comforts of home, including entertainment spots, a recreation centre, salon, bank, dry cleaner, post office, general store, Internet lounge and a huge dining area that offers the athletes tastes from all over the world. The task to feed the athletes and staff in the village, which during peak time will see some 60,000 meals served in 24 hours, has been led by catering manager Mari Holloway, who’s been on the job for twoand-a-half years leading up – and much of the 24/7 in which the hall is now open. “For the athletes, they see food as fuel, so for us it’s important that we have the main components of an athlete’s diet, and that’s carbohydrates and plain protein foods, so we’ve worked a great deal with the athletes’ committee and hence the concept here works extremely well,â€? she says.

Pastry chef uses rolling pin, taste buds john.curry@metroland.com

EMC news - If your best friend is a French rolling pin and if you use your taste buds to test your recipes, then you very well could be a pastry chef, just like Aimee Vachon at Scrumptious Creative Catering and Take Home Food Shop in Stittsville. She is the shop’s pastry chef and yes, she does refer to her French rolling pin as “my new best friend” because she uses it so much and so often in her baking. A French rolling pin is different from other rolling pins in that it has no handles and is tapered at each end. This allows a baker to get a better “feel” for the dough being rolled than is possible with a rolling pin with handles. While a pastry chef does not chop and cut food like a cook, there is a lot of physical effort required in lifting and rolling dough and in constantly lifting and moving the baking or baked items. But besides using her French rolling pin a lot, Aimee also gives the taste test to all of her recipes. She does this for every recipe that she uses so that she can adjust the ingredients if her taste buds tell her that something is missing. She wants her baked goodies, be they cupcakes or butter tarts or pies or wedding cakes, to be the best that they can be. Aimee even likes tasting things from other bakeries, since this sometimes gives her ideas about what she might bake. But being a good pastry chef like Aimee involves more than having a French rolling pin and lively taste buds. There is a lot of technique involved, such

as mixing ingredients appropriately. The texture of the finished item can be impacted if, for example, the ingredients are over mixed, making the finished product dry and crumbly. This again is where the taste buds come in as a taste test can determine if the proper texture and flavour has been achieved. Of course, tasting some of her work is not always done just for quality control for Aimee. Sometimes she does it just for enjoyment. “I can never say no to a warm chocolate chip cookie every now and again,” she admits. Even the temperature of various ingredients is vital to making a difference between a good finished product and a great one. For example, whether eggs are cold or at room temperature can make a difference in some recipes. Or a pie crust might not be flaky enough because the butter used was not cold enough. Aimee Vachon started off as a cook but transitioned into being a baker, serving as an apprentice under a pastry chef from whom she learned much. She has been a Scrumptious Creative Catering and Take Home Food Shop since last February where she handles preparing the baked goods both for catering events and for the food shop. She ensures that there is always a variety of goodies in the shop’s showcase ranging from cookies to squares to butter tarts to cupcakes. She also will do pies and birthday cakes and other special occasion cakes including wedding cakes. Aimee enjoys working on special cakes, creating a cake that meets a client’s vision. She finds it a rewarding part of her job when a client is happy with what is produced.

CAT OF THE WEEK

“I like when people are happy,” she says. It’s all about seeing the customer happy and enjoying what was baked, she adds. She says that she is always on the lookout for new recipes to try at the shop and new ways of creating items. Aimee says that she does not have a typical week as orders and events change from week to week and so then also does what she bakes every week. For the shop’s showcase, she tries to display a variety of items each week although there are some staple items like squares and cupcakes. She says that cupcakes, which are featured at

the shop every Friday and Saturday, have become very popular in recent years and notes that anything that can be done with a regular cake can be done with a cupcake. She says that the key to a good cupcake is developing a good recipe and then applying the right icing with the right decoration so that it not only looks nice but also tastes good. Scrumptious Creative Catering and Take Home Food Shop is located at 1610 Stittsville Main Street across from Home Furniture and beside the Stittsville post office. It can be contacted at 613-686-5959 and can be found on the web at www.ScrumptiousFood.ca

No one ever looked forward to ‘potato bug day’

MARY COOK Mary Cook’s Memories

R0011531387

Father was not going to be bitten twice. No-sir-eee. It sounded like a good idea the year before when he saw the ad in a farm magazine. It was guaranteeing an easy way to kill potato bugs and he sent off $2 for the latest invention which was going to put an end to one of the most hated jobs on the farm. What arrived were two pieces of small at board about 10 centimetres square and instructions to put the potato bug on one piece and slam it dead with the other. Of course, you had to pick off the bug ďŹ rst. Father knew he had been had, as he chucked the two pieces of wood into the Findlay Oval and watched his two dollars go up in smoke. He wasn’t going to fall for something like that again he may have only had a junior fourth-level education, but knew a crooked deal when he saw one. Now, Father loved farming. He loved his land and he loved his livestock, but what he couldn’t abide was picking off potato bugs. Yet it was a job that had to be done if we were ever to realize a good crop of potatoes for winter. So this time of year, when the plants were high, ďŹ lled with

blossoms and in a few weeks ready to be dug up for the new potatoes, we could also see hundreds of miserable little bugs eating to their hearts content on what would surely be the end of our crop and a disaster if left alone. We called it ‘potato bug day’ and Emerson said you looked forward to it as much as you looked forward to a trip into Renfrew to get a tooth pulled. We hated the job with a passion and with Father lamenting about it, didn’t make it any easier. The entire family got into the job, we ďŹ ve children, Mother and Father. We were told the night before, just before we went to bed and it was enough to keep you tossing and turning most of the night. Of course, my brother Emerson didn’t make the job any easier for me when he told me one of the Kallies boys got rabies from potato bugs. My sister Audrey said to pay him no heed - it was impossible to get rabies from a potato bug. This greatly put my mind at ease. Audrey, 11 years older than I was, was very clever. At breakfast, Father sat like a black cloud at the head of the table. Mother said we would leave cleaning up the kitchen so that we could get out to the potato ďŹ eld before the hot sun was at its cruelest. We followed Father to the drive shed where seven little tin cans were lined up on a plank like soldiers. Father took the old battered coal-oil can and ďŹ lled each tin half full with coal-oil and we headed out, down the hill behind the barn and the silo, each of us with our own ammunition to get rid of the despised potato bugs. The potato patch was about twice the size of our garden. We were big potato eaters. Father expected them fried for breakfast, creamed for lunch at noon and if there were any left over, fried with bacon fat and onions for supper. We could end up with many bags in the cellar if we were lucky. And of course, there wasn’t a smidgen wasted either. The peels were fed to the pigs and it wasn’t unusual for Mother to barter in Renfrew for supplies either. A bag of potatoes could mean more than two kilograms of sugar, a bag of green tea and

even a few yards of print from Briscoe’s General Store. So it was important that we save the crop from the potato bugs. It was no easy job picking off the bugs. There were no gloves to protect your ďŹ ngers. The only time I ever saw a pair of rubber gloves was when old Dr. Murphy took out my tonsils. No, you took a hold of the potato bug between your thumb and ďŹ nger and pulled it off the leaf, and popped it into the tin of coal oil. We went up and down the rows of potatoes, covered from head to toe to keep off the mosquitoes and the ies, with sweat pouring down our backs. We wore straw hats and gum rubbers. If we were lucky and worked quickly we could ďŹ nish the whole patch in the better part of a day. We didn’t even stop for lunch, so anxious were we to ďŹ nish the job and you wouldn’t dare speak to Father unless it was something very important. He hated the job so much, he was in vile humour most of the day, which was very unusual for Father. When we ďŹ nished the entire patch, we went into the summer kitchen and stripped down to our underwear and Mother would have lined up seven wash basins, using the pot she used for bleaching the tea towels. With hot water from the reservoir, we scrubbed our hands until they were red and washed any other part of our body we could get at without being completely naked. It took the better part of the evening before Father got rid of the scowl on his face and not before he could be heard muttering to himself in German, which Audrey said were swear words, which he wouldn’t dare say in English in front of Mother. If we were lucky, the potato bugs were ďŹ nished for the year. I often wondered if they died a slow and agonizing death in the coal oil. As I was going through a very religious spell in my young life at the time, I said a silent prayer that there was a potato bug heaven where they would ďŹ nd lots of potato plants to eat and where they could escape their coal oil deaths. I knew in my heart, Father would feel very differently about them, and if he prayed, it would be that we had seen the last of them for another year.

Ride the Rideau, Eastern Ontario’s most successful cancer fundraiser As a medical oncologist at The Ottawa Hospital, Dr. Neil Reaume has treated hundreds of cancer patients – and all of them have a story to tell. R0011507487_0719

“Every patient is different in their own way, and everyone has a story that’s touching,� said Reaume, who is also the director of the Hospital’s medical oncology training program. But one story he heard during the inaugural Ride the Rideau event in 2010 – The Ottawa Hospital Foundation’s signature fundraising event in support of cancer research at the Hospital – was particularly unforgettable. While volunteering, he met a young woman from Montreal who was riding her dad’s bike – he had died one year to the day of the ride from colon cancer. She had found out about Ride the Rideau the week before, and raised $3,000 in just seven days. “My jaw just dropped,� Reaume said. “I won’t forget that one.� The 42-year-old Reaume enjoyed the event so much that he returned to Ride the Rideau last year, the event’s second, but this time as one of the 715 riders. Over two years, the event has raised a total of $2.7 million. While cancer touches most people’s lives, Reaume is especially grateful for the incredible success of the event. Ride the Rideau funds the work that he is involved in as a researcher, which includes interna-

Guests must be 19 with valid, gov’t issued, photo id to enter SLOTS & Dining Room. All 19 - 25 will need 2 pieces of id.

tional lung and kidney cancer studies, as well as other clinical trials. There are over 70 trials currently taking place at the Ottawa Hospital Research Institute, with thousands of patients taking part annually. Reaume is thrilled that there are so many people out there who are just as passionate about the ďŹ ght against cancer as he is. Their enthusiasm, he said, is so inspiring that he has registered for the third annual event on Saturday, September 8. To join Dr. Reaume in the event, or to sign up to volunteer, visit ridetherideau.ca.

FEATURE OF THE WEEK

$30 for 30 days

R0011530146

This week I’m passing along three recipes that are all worth trying. The first is for a low-calorie creamy topping that you can use instead of whipping cream on fresh fruit, crepes or cake. Made with cottage cheese and flavoured with wine, this can be sweetened with either sugar or a sugar substitute. With raspberries in season, I serve this topping over crepes filled with fresh berries. When we run out of crepes, I spread it on thick slices of toasted homemade bread then top that with raspberries. You might want to try the same idea with fresh peaches for a Sunday brunch treat. Use a blender if you have one to make this rather than an electric mixer. The blades of the blender break up the lumps of cottage cheese so that the topping ends up almost as smooth as whipped cream. The second recipe is for a quick, tasty salad dressing that goes well on any green salad. Made with tomato juice and flavoured with tarragon, this has a slightly sweet flavour. It can also be made with a sugar substitute if you wish. If you don’t have any tarragon, you can substitute basil. The last recipe is for a marinade that you can use with fresh salmon, pork chops or chicken. After marinating, they can be barbecued or baked in the oven. This recipe calls for fresh ginger, but powdered ginger can also be used. The soy sauce gives additional flavour as well as colour.
