Start line changes for 9 RUN RUN
Inside NEWS
John Curry john.curry@metroland.com
The Fair’s heavy horse show was cancelled on Saturday which featured that allday rain but then after a few line classes were shown on Sunday morning, the heavy horse show exhibitors themselves decided to cancel the show including the afternoon hitch classes as the wet grounds made it too risky for the horses as they would have been susceptible to slipping and possibly breaking a leg.
News - The 9 RUN RUN event, known as Ottawa’s Emergency Services Run, is back again for a third year on Saturday, Oct. 19 but with a new start/finish line. In addition, the 10K course is new this year. The start-finish line will now be on Abbott Street west of Stittsville Main Street, not on Abbott Street east of Stittsville Main Street as in the past. This will be the case for both the Bushtukah half marathon route as well as for the Bushtukah 10K race route. The route for the 10K run, which starts at 9 a.m., will see participants leave the Abbott Street start line headed east to Stittsville Main Street and then go along Stittsville Main Street to Fernbank Road. It will then be right on Fernbank Road and then right on West Ridge Drive to the Trans Canada Trail. It will then be west on the Trans Canada Trail to the turnaround point where participants will turn around and head east on the Trans Canada Trail back to Abbott Street and the finish line.

News - What a difference a day can make! Last Friday the Richmond Fair experienced a record Friday crowd thanks to a day which featured warm sunshine. And then last Saturday, with its all-day rain, the Richmond Fair experienced what was probably its lowest Saturday turnout ever or at least since 1996 when current
general manager Dale Greene became involved with the annual Fair. “Two extremes,” is how Mr. Greene summed it up last Monday as he reported the outcome of these contrasting days at the Fair. He noted that last year, rain hurt the Fair’s attendance on the Friday with the Saturday being a good day. This year this was reversed, with Friday experiencing a record crowd and Saturday being a virtual washout.

Richmond Fair 2013 - ‘Two extremes’ Continued from page 1
The western horse show was cancelled on the Sunday. However, it did go ahead with a limited number of competitors on the rainy Saturday, finishing about 2 p.m. The saddle and harness show did not happen except for a few classes on Saturday. All of the activities on the outdoor stage were cancelled on Saturday and Sunday including the Saturday evening performances by youth phenom singers Jordan McIntosh and Henry Norwood. But the amateur talent show, slated for the outdoor stage on Sunday, did go ahead, with the venue switched to the upstairs hall at the Richmond Memorial Community Centre arena. The Fair’s sheep show went ahead on Sunday,

The Sunday morning ecumenical church service, originally planned for the outdoor stage, was relocated to the arena. The Friday and Saturday night entertainment events at the Fair, both held in the arena, were sold out. Friday’s record crowd was helped by an evening demolition derby that attracted 58 entries. The Children’s Storyland area at the Fair kept operating during the weekend, although the visitors there were sparse on the rainy Saturday. The Homecraft, floral and school work displays in the Richmond Curling Club building attracted a lot of attention, not only because they were dry throughout the Fair but also be-

moved inside a Fair barn. The miniature horse show and beef show, both on Sunday, also were held, as was the beef cattle show on the rainy Saturday. The dairy cattle show was held as it took place on the sunny Friday. The high wire acrobatic show went ahead on both Friday and Sunday and the midway operated on all of the Fair days, from Thursday through Sunday, although there was virtually no one on the grounds on the rainy Saturday. There was a substantial crowd on the grounds on Sunday, with a steady crowd coming through the gate. But it was a fairly cool day, with a cold wind, so not ideal Fair weather. But it sure was better than the rain-plagued Saturday.
cause they were colourful, interesting and plentiful. The Judge’s Choice award for quilts went to a hand quilted wall quilt entered by Lynda Smyth of Stittsville. Friday saw a couple of thousand students visit the fairgrounds including 400 special needs students, a unique program provided by the Richmond Agricultural Society. Among the educational opportunities provided to these visiting students were an explanation and demonstration about miniature horses and also one about sheep shearing. In the old Curling Club building, there was a new mural added this year to the collection of student-done rural-related murals. This mural, showing a pair of horses, driver and wagon in a silhouette setting and named “At Day’s End Mural,” came from John McCrae Secondary School in Barrhaven, with Chelsea Ross doing the painting.

News - Land in the southwest corner of the village of Richmond, south of Ottawa Street and east of McBean Street, was allocated as industrial lands in the 2010 Community Design Plan for the village. Now, though, there may be some interest that the lands be developed for residential uses rather than industrial lands. City of Ottawa RideauGoulbourn ward councillor Scott Moffatt told the Richmond Village Association executive of this possible interest at the Association’s last executive meeting. He said that in his opinion, this area is the one best suited in the village for residential development because it would have no impact on the existing village. In terms of transportation, the lands are located
adjacent to the Eagleson Road and also would have good access via Brophy Drive to highway 416. However, there are hurdles before any such residential development of the land. A developer

Coping with tragedy
T
he awful events of Sept. 18 cost six people their lives. Naturally we all have questions about what went wrong when a double-decker OC Transpo bus struck a Via train near Fallowfield Station in Barrhaven. Yet, our priority in these days following the tragic event should be to care for those affected and let them know that their neighbours are here to help in any way they can. We will find out what happened as the Transportation Safety Board and Ottawa police complete their respective investigations. We may never know exactly why events unfolded as they did, but we’ll have a general idea. In the meantime, we should all make an effort to avoid speculation. Guessing at the cause serves no purpose and can only be hurtful. There is also no good reason to point fingers at past decisions about the design of rail crossing on Woodroffe Avenue and the Transitway where the collision took place. That crossing met all the existing standards of the day and is no different than hundreds – or possibly thousands – of crossings across the country. If that crossing is inherently dangerous then there is much work to do across Canada, and the federal government will have to help other levels of
government pay to keep citizens of this country safe by separating train lines for roads in many places. The TSB has committed to sharing all its information when their work is done and has also promised to alert the public and authorities if they find a glaring safety issue during their work. We can ask nothing more and nothing less. But as for now, many residents across Ottawa are bound to know someone who was on the bus, on the train or sitting in their car on Woodroffe Avenue when the collision occurred. This was a traumatic event, and those who witnessed it deserve our support to cope with the emotional fallout. Some will also know the families of the six people – Michael Bleakney, Connor Boyd, Karen Krzyzewski, Kyle Nash, Rob More and Dave Woodard – who lost their lives. Those family members need all the help and support this city can afford them. But perhaps forgotten among those who might be shaken by this tragedy are the OC Transpo bus drivers. It’s never easy losing a colleague, and many drivers may recall the times they’ve driven past that site and think it could’ve been them and their passengers. So next time you’re getting off a bus, take a moment to thank your bus driver for getting you there safe and sound -- their job is far from easy.

Messy as it is, democracy in action is a wonderful thing
L
ast week was Democracy Week, which you probably didn’t notice either. There could have been something said about it in Parliament, but the House of Commons was prorogued. So most of us didn’t notice until it was too late. Except that it’s never too late to think about democracy. Why do so many of us, who live in one the most free countries of the world, decide not to vote when we get the chance on election day? Why do we, who are better educated than people in most countries of the world, know so little about public affairs? And why do we not care? People blame television for this. More recently, people blame the Internet. People blame the parents of Canada, who are too busy watching television to talk to their kids about democracy. People blame politicians for being such bozos. People blame the news media, who care more about sports and Miley Cyrus than about democracy. People blame our affluence and our freedom: We’re doing just fine so we don’t have to care about what our governments are doing. This is a big mistake, because government is with us every day -- sometimes less than we want, on issues such as homelessness, and sometimes more, on issues such as how

CHARLES GORDON Funny Town big a cross you can wear around your neck or whether you can put your inside furniture on your front porch. Most lovers of democracy are rightly steamed about Quebec’s charter of values, which stipulates what religious symbols government employees can’t wear. Less significant, but equally silly, are changes to Ottawa’s property maintenance bylaw, publicized recently, which would have required green bins to be stored in back yards. This has something to do with bureaucrats thinking green bins don’t look good on front porches. The same changes also contained a provision that indoor furniture shouldn’t be outdoors -- in other words, no chesterfield on the veranda. Nobody around city hall twigged that such

recommendations might cause inconvenience -- for example, to the many people in the city who don’t have back yards or garages or other places to keep their green bins out of sight; or people who can’t spend money on cool-looking outdoor furniture for their front porches. Away from city hall, people did notice, however. The proposed changes became subject to public debate and seem, like Quebec’s charter of values, on their way to being laughed out of existence. Mind you, the charter of values might take a little longer. In their rather different ways, both issues are examples of democracy being put to improper uses. We don’t elect a government to tell us what to wear on our heads or put on our front porches. In a democracy we can have whatever we want on our heads or our front porches, as long as we aren’t endangering anyone or interfering with anyone else’s rights. Putting the chesterfield on the front porch is fine as long as you’re not sitting on it playing the bagpipes at three in the morning, or vermin aren’t escaping from it (the chesterfield, not the bagpipes) into the neighbour’s yard. The chesterfield might not look so nice, but that’s a question of taste, and we don’t elect governments to rule on taste. If we did, politicians would dress a lot cooler than they do
and their office walls wouldn’t have so many plaques on them and pictures of the politicians shaking hands with celebrities. We are allowed to have our own tastes, especially if they are bad. Because who’s to say? Wide ties may come back. Obviously, the people sense this, hence the uproar, hence the retreat by city hall. This all happened during Democracy Week, by the way. Exercising the right to yell and protest and cause a public uproar is democracy in action. It’s messy sometimes, like the chesterfield on the front porch, but we’re comfortable with it.

Coalition against new landfill wants money, political action John Curry john.curry@metroland.com
News - Six hundred people giving $100 each. That’s $60,000 and that’s what the Coalition of Citizen Groups and its “Don’t Let Ottawa Go To Waste Campaign” are seeking to carry on its fight against the new Carp Road landfill. “That’s what we need to get started,” Olivia Nixon of the Richardson Corridor Community Association, one of the Coalition members, told the 60 people who attended a public meeting called by the Coalition last Monday night at the hall at the Johnny Leroux Stittsville Community Arena in Stittsville. An online donation site has been set up at www.igg.me/at/dlogtw with the hope that the desired $60,000 will be forthcoming in the next 60 days. Donations can also be made to the “Don’t Let Ottawa Go To Waste” legal defense fund that has been set up at the Royal Bank in Stittsville. Donations can also be mailed to “Don’t Let Ottawa Go To Waste”, c/o 113 Wilbert Cox Drive, Carp, ON K0A 1L0. This fundraising will allow the Coalition to take possible action on the legal front which Ms. Nixon termed “another tool in the tool box, “ saying that going forward on this issue, there definitely is an opportunity to fight a legal battle. Mx. Nixon admitted that a legal fight on this issue could cost in the 100’s of 1000’s of dollars. “Any legal fight is expensive,” she said. This could include a judicial review, asking a judge to decide if the Minister of the Environment erred in his decision to approve the Environmental Assessment (EA) that allows the new landfill at the Carp Road site to go ahead. Ms. Nixon said that the EA did not meet the terms of provincial legislation nor even the Terms of Reference for this particular EA. Right now, as a result of a meeting last Monday involving city of Ottawa politicians and staff as well as three members of the Coalition – Ms. Nixon, Harold Moore and Marilyn Jenkins – the city’s legal staff is developing a legal opinion on the possible success of such a judicial review process. This will determine if the city joins the Coalition in the legal action or whether the Coalition would have to go it alone. “I would like the city to back us in our fight,” she said but noted that the city’s political leaders need to be told by the citizens of the community that this is the community’s will and the city should support the battle. Besides a judicial review, other legal avenues might include asking for an Environmental Review Tribunal which would make a decision on the matter. But this would involve engaging experts and would be an extremely expensive process. Another possible legal avenue would be a class action which Ms. Nixon indicated might be down the road in this issue. She said that it would have to be determined what form such a class action might take. She lamented that such a legal class action was not taken in the 2006-2009 period when the Carp Road landfill that is now closed was generating a lot of odours. Another front on which the Coalition wants to take action is the political front, approaching politicians at all levels and pushing them to do what the Coalition views as the right thing in this case, namely to reject the proposed new landfill at this Carp Road site. She advised people to call the mayor and urge that the city take aggressive action on this matter. She did suggest that the city probably did not push hard enough on this issue during
the EA process and really has entered the fight a little late. But Ms. Nixon was not complimentary about Carleton-Mississippi Mills MPP Jack MacLaren in whose riding this proposed new landfill will be located. “He’s been wholly unhelpful in this case,” she said about Mr. MarLaren, adding that the MPP apparently views this landfill as a temporary solution to the waste problem. She admitted that she does not understand how something that may cause pollution for 300 years into the future can be viewed as a temporary solution. “These are environmental time bombs,” she said about landfill sites, predicting that the people of the community will end up paying in the future for this environmental disaster. Ms. Nixon noted that Waste Management, the proponent for the new landfill, is a large global company. “This is definitely a David and Goliath struggle,” she said but noted that other such battles have been won but that winning will require passion and drive from the community. In the meeting, she cited examples of several landfill projects which had been halted by community pressure even after the projects had received EA approval as this new Carp Road landfill has just received. “If this decision was based on the facts, we would have won,” Ms. Nixon said about the EA process. She said that the decision was not based on the facts of the case but was entirely political. “Basically it was rubber stamped,” she said. The community has to tell the politicians that they just can’t impose this landfill on this community, Ms. Nixon said. This is where political action is required. It was even suggested during the question and answer period at the meeting that Eugene Melnyk, owner of the Ottawa Senators, should be approached to try to get his support to fight the new landfill, given its proximity to Canadian Tire Place. He did not get a casino or a soccer field, Ms. Nixon said, “but he got a big friggin’ landfill right in his backyard.” “If anyone knows Melnyk, give us a shout,” Harold Moore of the Coalition later shouted to the crowd when the meeting was breaking up at 8:30 p.m., an hour and a half after its 7 p.m. start time. City of Ottawa Stittsville ward councillor Shad Qadri was the only politician in attendance at this meeting. He reported that fellow west end councillors Eli El-Chantiry, Marianne Wilkinson, Scott Moffatt and Allan Hubley were all tied up at other meetings while mayor Jim Watson was busy dealing with matters related to last week’s tragic bus/train collision. Councillor Qadri expressed his disappointment in the decision of the Minister of the Environment to approve the EA for this new Carp Road landfill. He said that others can call it a landfill or the West Carleton Environmental Centre but he calls it a “dump.” He noted that perhaps only one of the 13 conditions suggested by Ottawa city council in the EA process was incorporated into the approval decision. One of these conditions was asking that only waste from the city of Ottawa and adjacent municipalities be sent to this new landfill. This condition was not included and the new landfill will be able to accept waste from across Ontario, Ms. Nixon predicted that the bulk of the waste for this new landfill will come from outside the city of Ottawa.

Art Mad Artists meet weekly at library Special to the News
News - The Art Mad shop in Stittsville may have closed last year but its artists live on. The Art Mad Artists of Stittsville has been formed by a group of local artists who used to attend classes at
the Art Mad shop at the Stittsville Shopping Centre when it was operating. Now, the group meets regularly at the Stittsville branch of the Ottawa Public Library, one afternoon a week, to practice their art and to
encourage each other in their artistic endeavours. The group had its ďŹ rst public outing at the Artists and Authors in the Park event at Village Square Park in Stittsville in May. Members of the group are now
spreading their wins a little farther with a couple of entries being submitted in the annual Cock Show at the Atomic Rooster Bar & Bistro in downtown Ottawa. This roosterthemed show is now on at the Atomic Rooster Bar & Bistro until Sunday,
Oct. 13. The Art Mad Artists of Stittsville will be entering the public arena again in early spring 2014 when the group will be presenting its work on the Art Space Wall at the Stittsville branch of the Ottawa Public Library.

New year begins for Nursery School Special to the News
News - Another year has begun for the Stittsville Cooperative Nursery School. Located in premises at A. Lorne Cassidy Elementary School on Hobin Street in Stittsville, the Nursery School goes back to 1971 when a group of parents interested in providing a pre-school experience for their children started the Stittsville Cooperative Nursery School. The licensed Nursery School is a parent co-operative administered by an elected executive committee of volunteer parent members. The executive committee manages the facility, hires qualified staff and handles the everyday business of the Nursery School. Parents assist in the classroom on a rotational basis and also fundraise as required. Fees are kept at a minimum while providing the best possible Nursery School experience for the youngsters enrolled. Since its founding, the Nursery School operated in premises at the Stittsville United Church and then in its own premises at a renovated building in the heart of Stittsville before relocating to A. Lorne Cassidy Elementary School when it opened in the 1990’s. In 1988, the Stittsville Cooperative Nursery School officially became an integrated school. This means that the program and staff were assessed by the Ontario Ministry of Children and Youth Services and were found to be suitable to accommodate children with special needs. Such integration of children with special physical, mental or emotional needs into the classroom helps not only the special needs children to develop through contact with other children but also helps all of the children in promoting acceptance and fostering an environment of tolerance and helpfulness. The Stittsville Cooperative Nursery School tries to provide a stimulating environment in which children can learn trust and can develop at his or her own pace. Children are supervised in a quiet, positive and constructive manner. The program is well planned but not highly structured or academic in nature. It focuses on activities that encourage children to experiment freely and creatively. Children at the Nursery School learn to handle themselves in a larger group of peers, learn to take instruction from adults and develop new relationships. The Stittsville Cooperative Nursery School can be contacted by phone at 613-836-1500 or via email at schs@ bellnet.ca.

At least 65 volunteers are needed for this and their role is essential – if the barriers cannot be staffed, the parade may not be allowed by the city.

Roadway modifications coming John Curry john.curry@metroland.com
News - The first roadway modifications to accommodate the new north/south arterial running through the Fernbank lands in Stittsville are coming. The new two lane north/south arterial, named Founders Way, is expected to be under construction by developers early next spring with completion expected by 2015. This first section of the north/south arterial will run from Fernbank Road north to Abbott Street. This is the first of what will eventually be a three phase project. The second phase will take this north-south arterial from Abbott Street north to Hazeldean Road while a third phase, expected in the 2020-2021 time frame, will see the northsouth arterial constructed from Hazeldean Road north to Palladium Drive. This north-south arterial will be built initially as a two lane road but eventually it will be a four lane roadway with two adjacent bus transit lanes. To accommodate the first phase of the construction of this north-south arterial road, namely from Fernbank Road north to Abbott Street, there are going to be road improvements made on Fernbank Road and also Abbott Street for the new roadway. On Fernbank Road, at this new Founders Way
intersection, there will be a traffic signal, a northbound left turn lane and a new concrete median. There will also be construction of a multi-use pathway along the north side of Fernbank Road in this area. The new north-south arterial, Founders Way, will include a southbound right turn lane onto Fernbank Road. This intersection of the new Founders Way with Fernbank Road will be in the area where the EQ sales office is now located along Fernbank Road, about halfway between Shea Road and Terry Fox Drive. The modifications being made where Abbott Street will be meeting this new Founders Way north-south arterial are more extensive than what will be happening on Fernbank Road. Abbott Street is going to be extended eastward about 400 metres to where it will meet Founders Way. This extension of Abbott Street east of Iber Road will have a concrete sidewalk on its north side. There will be a new left turn lane added for traffic headed north on Iber Road from Abbott Street. There will also be new right and left turn lanes added to Iber Road for southbound traffic that will be headed either west or east respectively on Abbott Street. There will be a concrete median on Abbott Street as it approaches the new Founders Way intersection.

Stittsville Royals suffer two losses John Curry john.curry@metroland.com
Sports - Two 5-4 scores and the Stittsville Royals were on the losing end of both. It was not a good few days for the Eastern Ontario Junior Hockey League team from Stittsville. On Thursday, Sept. 19, the Royals travelled to Ottawa to take on the Ottawa Canadians who rallied for three straight goals in the third period to capture a 5-4 win, scoring the winning goal with less than three minutes to go in the game. The Ottawa Canadians peppered 16 shots at Royals netminder Jason Shaw in the third period while the Royals managed only four shots at the Canadians’ net. These 16 third period shots were part of the 43 shots which the Canadians directed at the Royals goal. The Royals had 26 shots at the Ottawa net in the game. It was 1-1 at the end of the first period with Gord Sinclair scoring
for the Royals. The Royals scored three straight goals in the second period to take a 4-2 lead into the third period. Scoring for the Royals in this second period were Ryan Daniel assisted by Alex Perrault and Jake Oliver; Blake Martyniuk assisted by Alex Perrault and Jermy Nichols; and Robbie Clarkson assisted by Ryan Daniel. In fact, the Royals led 4-1 with less than a minute to go in this second period before the Canadians scored on a power play to narrow the gap to 4-2 and set the stage for the third period three goal rally that won the game 5-4. Ryan Daniel of the Royals was selected as the third star of this game. At the Goulbourn Recreation Complex in Stittsville last Sunday afternoon, the Royals were again on the losing end of a 5-4 score. This time it was a shootout goal that sent the Royals down to defeat to the visiting Perth Blue Wings. The Royals led 1-0 after the first period and 3-1 at the end of two pe-
riods of play. But Perth erupted for three goals in the third period while the Royals only tallied once, making the score 4-4 and setting up an overtime period. Nothing was settled in the overtime session so it was on to a shootout which Perth won, earning a 5-4 victory. The Royals had 40 shots at the Perth goal in this game while Perth had 34 shots at Royals goalie Jason Shaw. It was Talmadge Farnes of the Royals who scored the only goal of the first period. Brendan Moloney had an assist on the play. In the second period, the Royals scored two goals, one by Clay Carter assisted by Robbie Clarkson and another by Eric Malloy with Jake Oliver earning an assist. Perth replied with one goal in this period so the Royals had a 3-l lead going into the third period. Perth made it 3-2 in third period play but then the Royals’ Jesse Renaud scored a power play goal, assisted by Ben Wade and Jeremy Nichols
to restore the Royals’ two goal lead 4-2. Perth then roared back with two goals to tie up the game 4-4 and force overtime play. After the scoreless overtime period, it was on to the shootout which Perth won. Joey Laird of the Royals was selected as the game’s first star. Talmadge Farnes of the Royals was chosen as the game’s second star while Royals goalie Jason Shaw captured the third star selection in the game, making it a Stittsville Royals sweep of the games three stars. Despite these two 5-4 losses, the Stittsville Royals continue to be tied for first place in the six-team Valley Division with five points on a record of two wins, a loss and one shootout loss. The next home game for the Stittsville Royals is this coming Sunday, Sept. 29 when the Royals will be hosting the visiting Shawville Pontiacs in a 2:30 p.m. game at the Goulbourn Recreation Complex on Shea Road in Stittsville.
French language conversation group formed Special to the News
News - A French language conversation group has been established at the Stittsville branch of the Ottawa Public Library. A weekly schedule of Thursday morning meetings at 10 a.m. has been set up. So far, attendance is from nine to ten people. It is expected that membership will be capped at somewhere around 13 to 15 people for the time being. The hope is that this French language conservation program will appeal to those with an ability to speak French at an intermediate level. In addition, it is the hope that those participating would attend this conversational group on a weekly basis. Anyone with an interest in this program should contact Bonnie Foster of the Stittsville library at 613-836-3381, via email at bonnie.foster@biblioottawalibrary.ca or in person by dropping into the Stittsville library branch.
Six die in OC Transpo bus/train collision Jennifer McIntosh and Laura Mueller jennifer.mcintosh@metroland.com
News - Seconds before he saw the front of the bus he was riding on disappear Eric Nelson asked himself why the driver hadn’t hit the brakes. “We were about to cross the rail line and the safety arm had come down,” he said. “I looked over at the cars on Woodroffe all the other cars had stopped. That’s when he stomped on the brakes, but it was too late.” Nelson was one of the dozens of passengers on an OC Transpo bus struck by a train near Fallowfield station on Wednesday, Sept. 18. Seated about two rows behind the front stairwell at the top of the double-decker 76 express, Nelson said the first three rows of the bus were wiped away by the westbound Via train when the two collided. He added the bus was likely 90 per cent full. Amanda Brooks, 20, who spoke to the media with cheeks smeared by tears and dirt, said passengers were screaming at the driver to stop. Nelson said it was akin to a religious experience for him. He says timing and luck saved him from being one of the fatalities. “If we had crossed two seconds later we would have missed it,” he said. “Two seconds earlier and it would have hit the middle of the bus and done a lot more damage.” Once the bus stopped, passengers made for the exit, which was tough because the stairwell was pretty much demolished, Nelson said. “We had to kind of hold the door up to get it out, because it was leaning on its side,” he said. When he got off the bus, he described the carnage on the train tracks as a war scene. “There were blood and limbs everywhere. There were people who were obviously very injured. I hope they survived. One guy flew 10 metres down the tracks during the crash so I doubt he did,” Nelson said. Police, fire services and paramedics rushed to the scene of the crash – where Woodroffe Avenue crosses the Via Rail train tracks at 8:48 a.m. Shortly after the crash, police confirmed five
fatalities, including the bus driver. A sixth person succumbed to injuries in hospital. Police have identified the deceased as Michael Bleakney, 57, Connor Boyd, 21, Karen Krzyzewski, 53, Kyle Nash, 21, Rob More, 35 and driver David Woodard. Thirty-one people were sent to hospital and three more people who left the scene of the crash later went to hospital. One more person died in hospital before noon, 10 more were in critical condition. Calline Au, a spokesperson for the Queensway Carleton Hospital said five patients who turned up at hospital on their own after the crash were released. Four were brought in by ambulance and one of those has been released. Two patients had already undergone orthopedic surgery. Au said one patient was waiting to undergo surgery for a minor fracture on the morning of Sept. 19. The rest of the injured were transported to the Queensway Carleton Hospital, the Montfort and the Civic and General campuses of the Ottawa Hospital. Hours later, Nelson was still in the parking lot of the train station with his pregnant wife. As soon as he got off the bus Nelson texted his wife that there had been a major accident. She called him six times before he heard the phone and picked up. “It was hard to text because my hands were still shaking,” he said, adding he later called his boss and took the day off. Robert Evraire, who was standing on the platform at the time waiting for the train at Fallowfield station, said he noticed the train’s headlight went out. Then he looked up and noticed the front of the train slide to the right, accompanied by flying debris and smoke. “It hits you in the gut,” he said. “I could’ve been on that train.” Heather Hogan, who was about to board the train for Kingston, said the same thing. “I could have gotten on the train downtown and then I would have been on it,” she said. Hogan, who was on the platform as well, remembered the sounds of the crash. “First I heard this loud bang, then awful screeching,” she said, adding she didn’t know
at first that the bus had been hit. “It looked like the bus was in the safe zone from where I was,” she said, adding she saw what she thought was the train’s conductor stick his head out the window to survey the damage. Hogan called 911 immediately upon seeing the crash. She said her first thought was for the people on board the train. “You hear of trains derailing or you see it in the movies, but I never thought I would see it,” she said. The picture was much different from inside the train said one man who identified himself as Ntuk. He was going to Toronto when he saw a blur and heard what he described as a series of bumps. “It stopped and then I realized we were off the tracks,” he said. The bus driver is one of five pronounced dead at the scene. He has been identified by police as David Woodard, 45, of Ottawa. Craig Watson, president of the Amalgamated Transit Union local 279, said he had been on the job 10 years with a good driving record. “He was a nice guy,” Watson said. “Any of the drivers who know him will tell you he’s one of the nice guys.” Watson described Woodard as a family man from the east end of Ottawa. He added there is grief counselling available for members of the union. “This is devastating for the whole city and our hearts and prayers go out to anyone in the city whose been affected by this tragedy,” Watson said. While awaiting news of their loved ones, family members were directed to the Nepean Sportsplex. David Fraser, a disaster management volunteer with the Canadian Red Cross, said a dozen volunteers had been dispatched to help reunite passengers with their families. “People come in and give their information about their identity and that of the person they’re looking for and we try to connect them,” he said. “We also have volunteers here just to listen and to offer counselling.” Const. Marc Soucy, a spokesperson with the
Ottawa police, said grief counselling and victim services were on hand for the family members. He added those on board the train and bus were spread out across the city and were being interviewed by police and the Transportation Safety Board. Safety board investigator Glen Pilon said that the train contained a “black box” which would give information such as speed of travel at the time of the collision. Because of the severity of the incident, an investigation into the collision has already begun. The investigation could take months, said Jean Laporte, chief operating officer for the Transportation Safety Board. Pilon said that safety at crossings where trains and vehicles could potentially meet was already on the board’s safety watchlist, a document created in 2010. The watchlist indentifies the riskiest safety issues for Canadians, each of which has found “that action taken to date are inadequate, and that industry and regulators need to take additional concrete measures to eliminate the risks,” said the safety board’s website. The watchlist recommended in 2010 that Transport Canada implement new crossing regulations, develop enhanced standards for certain types of crossing signs, and improve public awareness of the dangers at railway crossings. If any safety deficiencies are identified at the Woodroffe crossing during the course of the Transportation Safety Board’s investigation, they would be identified to the relevant agencies and made public, Laporte said. However, the board does not have the authority to enforce any regulations or recommendations for corrective action. Watson said he has directed city officials to work “as co-operatively as possible” with the investigation to find out what led to the crash and how to prevent similar incidents in the future. “Obviously any deficiencies that are found on any of our roads or crossings or vehicles, of course we’d take immediate action,” the mayor said.

Carp Road - Divided four lane road? John Curry john.curry@metroland.com
News - Heavy existing traffic volumes and a projected ever-increasing traffic load means that increasing the Carp Road from highway 417 to Hazeldean Road from the existing two lanes to four lanes is needed. And not only that but due to the projected annual average daily traffic volumes and the already active driveway traffic movements, the preliminary design concepts involve a divided four lane roadway. The preliminary designs range from a 33.70 metre wide right of way involving an on-road bike lane, a wide median, narrow boulevards on the sides and sidewalks to a 29.70 metre wide right of way with the bike lane in the boulevard area and a narrow media in the middle, separating the traffic lanes. Existing peak traffic volumes on Carp Road are up to 1200 vehicles per hour in the morning and afternoon peak hours. This exceeds the theoretical capacity of a two lane roadway which is considered to be 800 to 1000 vehicles per hour in peak hours. Based on future development in the area, it is projected that the Carp Road will be experiencing from 2600 to 3800 new two-way vehicle trips during the weekday morning and afternoon peak hours. The city of Ottawa’s current Transportation Master Plan identifies the need for Carp Road from highway 417 to Hazeldean Road to be widened from two lanes to four lanes in a time period identified as between 2016 and 2022. It is the projected increase in traffic volumes on this portion of Carp Road as well as traffic movement and safety concerns that warrant the need to improve traffic operations along this stretch of roadway that justify the creation of a
four lane roadway. In addition, the widening project could include the opportunity to provide pedestrian and cycling facilities along this stretch of roadway. There will also be the opportunity to improve the roadway’s visual environment to provide a more pleasing entrance to Stittsville. One challenge is that the existing right of way for the road is between 22.0 and 30.0 metres wide. This is less than what the city’s Official Plan calls for with regard to a four lane roadway, namely 37.5 metres. Even the narrowest of the preliminary designs involves a 29.70 metre wide right of way. It is recognized that widening the right of way will have notable impacts on adjacent private properties. A preferred preliminary design will be unveiled at an upcoming open house sometime in the winter of 2014. Design principles for the project include greenery to improve the visual environment, safe vehicular access to adjacent properties and having the most efficient and compact footprint possible. A four lane divided roadway is being considered rather than an undivided four lane roadway because of the number of driveways, as there are presently over 60 driveways along this portion of Carp Road. It is expected that with future development or re-development of Carp Road properties, there will be an increase in the number of turning movements for these driveways. This increases vehicular conflicts and potential collisions. Current safety risks along this section of Carp Road include vehicular slip-around movements by motorists who use the existing unpaved shoulders to get around a turning vehicle.

Carp Road widening to four lanes Continued from page 22
ed at the open house. Other solutions rather than four laning the Carp Road in this area were examined and rejected by the study team. These ranged from “Do Nothing” which would see the existing traffic conditions continue and get worse while offering no chance to improve walking and cycling along the road or to improve the visual character of the road. A two lane renew of the existing Carp Road plus construction of a new parallel north/south road running to the east of the present roadway, hitting Hazeldean Road in the area of the former Stittsville Flea Market site was considered but rejected on the basis that this would be constructing a redundant road and would divided a future developing residential community. It is expected that this study
about the widening of Carp Road to four lanes will concluded by the summer of 2014. The open house proposed for January 2014 will be followed by another open house in April 2014. The matter would then go on to Ottawa city council’s transportation committee and ultimately full Ottawa city council in May 2014. Estimated total cost of the widening of this two kilometer stretch of Carp Road from highway 417 south to Hazeldean Road is seven million dollars, although this is not a firm number. For more information about this Carp Road widening study, please contact Jabbar Siddique, Senior Project Engineer (Environmental Assessment) for the city of Ottawa at 613-580-2424, ext. 13914 or via email at Jabbar.Siddique@ ottawa.ca.
This is one of the preliminary design concepts for the widening of Carp Road between highway 417 and Hazeldean Road in Stittsville, showing a divided four-way roadway with a middle median, cycling lanes in the side boulevards and sidewalks on both sides of the street.

The annual average daily traffic volumes of about 29,000 are going to be well over the 18,000 vehicles volumes that is considered the standard for a four lane undivided highway. This, added to the active driveway density along the road, is what is making a four lane divided highway the future of this project. An initial open house about this Carp Road widening project was held on Wednesday evening, Sept. 18 in the lobby at the Goulbourn Recreation Complex on Shea Road in Stittsville, with about 25 various information boards set up for viewing by those who attended. City of Ottawa staff were also available for oneon-one conversations. In addition, the city was looking for written comments about the information present-

News - The stories just came. And music is his game. And, oh yes, Jon Whittington, aka jkstraw, is his name. He brought his unique brand of music incorporating Americana, folk songs, country songs and road songs to the Friday music evening at the Gaia Java Coffee Company shop at the Stittsville Shopping Centre (Shoppers Drug Mart plaza) on Stittsville Main Street in Stittsville last Friday. Accompanying himself on the guitar, an instrument which sometimes just took over
thanks to a solo flourish at the beginning or in the middle of a song, Jon sang song after song which told a story from his play list of 90 or so tunes. And on this occasion, which was special because it was his mother’s birthday, he played a lot of Robert Hunter songs, the American lyricist, singer and songwriter who is best known for his work with the Grateful Dead. Indeed, in 1994 when the Grateful Dead band was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, Robert Hunter was included as a band member, the only non-performer ever so honoured. Robert Hunter also has collaborated with Bob Dylan on several occasions.
JOHN CURRY/METROLAND
Jon “jkstraw” Whittington, with his guitar and trademark hat, performed at the Friday music evening at the Gaia Java Coffee Company shop in Stittsville last Friday, Sept. 20.
Both Jon and his mother like Robert Hunter tunes and so much of last Friday’s music evening featured Hunter songs. It is Jon’s husky, gravely voice that sets him apart (not counting the ever present cowboy hat that he has become his trademark over his ten year music career) – it makes you believe that he has said and done what he is singing about. “I wish I was a headlight on a northbound train”; “Going down the road feeling bad”; “Did you say your name was Ramblin’ Rose”; “Nothing’s going to change my mind” – the lyrics just kept on coming as did the stories and they were all believable and engaging. Jon took the past summer largely off from performing, although he did sing at the Stittsville Legion Hall. However, now with two children, both involved in hockey, his four year old daughter for the first time, he expects to be spending more time in hockey arenas being a hockey parent than in performing. But he will still be making some appearances in the Ottawa area and there’s always YouTube where he has attracted close to half a million views. Lots of people like the jkstraw down-to-earth style of singing. Friday music evenings are held at the Gaia Java Coffee Company shop every Friday at 7 p.m. There is no charge to attend but those planning to attend should be there early for the best seating. Singer/songwriter Les Gorman will be performing at the Gaia Java Friday music evening this Friday, Sept. 27 at 7 p.m.

DYING FOR DIGNITY

Hospices face critical conditions With hospital beds at a premium and the seniors’ population set to double, the city is in desperate need of more palliative care options METROLAND EAST SPECIAL REPORT
T
errence Quickfall knows he is going to die. He was diagnosed with prostate cancer seven years ago and the slow moving cancer continues to advance. “It’s very traumatic when you’ve been told you have cancer and you need to learn how to deal with that – the trauma, the big C. What the hell do you do, where do you go from here?” asks Quickfall. He received the traditional treatment – chemotherapy, radiation and hormone therapy – at a hospital but became depressed and withdrawn. “The trouble with a hospital is it’s very clinical,” he says. “There’s not enough personal attention, personal care. They’re always busy, busy, busy. “I’m stuck in these bloody four walls, I can’t get out. There’s no point in me hanging round, I’m not doing anything. And I’m taking up a lot of money that could be used on other people.” Sensing his distress, his social worker mentioned the option of hospice. Intrigued, Quickfall visited the Hospice at May Court, located in Old Ottawa South. The non-profit – a part of Hospice Care Ottawa, which includes Friends of Hospice Ottawa in Kanata – offers specialized support and a wide range of services to people and families experiencing a lifelimiting illness, either in their homes or through residential programs at one of their two locations. After four months of attending day programs at May Court, the 73-yearold has found a sense of community and belonging. On a regular visit, Quickfall can be found painting in the art room, talking to other patients, enjoying the garden views or playing cards with friends he’s made through the hospice. “We’re all in palliative care; palliative care is preparation for end of life,” he says. “We all know we’re going to die, but we’re here to have fun and that’s what we’re damn well going to do.” Quickfall plans on taking advantage of a residential bed at the hospice when his time comes. Aside from offering more personal attention, the cost to the health-care system is much lower. A residential

DYING FOR DIGNITY A three-part series about hospice palliative care in Ottawa Part 1: A look at palliative care in the Ottawa area and the need for more resources as the population ages. hospice bed comes in at $400 a day, while a hospital bed is between $800 and $1,200. But hospice beds are in high demand and the supply isn’t where it should be. A report by Hospice Care Ottawa states 75 per cent of people with a terminal illness pass away in hospital and only 15 per cent of those patients receive quality end-of-life care. With a population close to one million people, Ottawa should have 70 hospice beds; that estimate allows for population growth and increasing mortality as the population ages. But the city only has 17. As baby boomers age, Ottawa’s seniors are expected to make up 20 per cent of the population by 2030. The number of deaths are expected to rise from 9,000 to 19,000 a year and 90 per cent of those people could benefit from hospice palliative care at the end of life, according to the report.
26 Stittsville News EMC - Thursday, September 26, 2013
Currently, fewer than 300 people have access to hospice palliative care in the city each year. Although the idea of hospice palliative care isn’t new – home support programs have been available in Ottawa since 1987 and residential hospices since 1997 – the way society thinks about end-of-life-care needs to change. Instead of focusing on a person’s last days, palliative care needs to begin at the initial stage of diagnosis, says Dr. José Pereira, head of the division of palliative care at the University of Ottawa, and medical chief of the palliative care programs at Bruyère Continuing Care and the Ottawa Hospital. “We relegate it to the very end and we make the wrong decisions in the meantime. People suffer,” he explains. “As a society, we still think of palliative as being only the last few days of life. The problem with that is we
then miss the opportunity of preparing for the end of life. We miss the opportunity of improving quality of life, of improving symptoms, pain, shortness of breath, etcetera – of having these discussions much earlier,” says Pereira. “This is something that as a society we need to start rethinking.” In preparation, Ottawa must have resources in place to help people in every aspect of the palliative care continuum – something that is sorely lacking. “Fifty-two per cent of cancer patients are dying in hospitals,” says Pereira. The reasons? A lack of preparation and a lack of hospice beds, he says. Quickfall is one of the lucky ones – receiving the type of quality care that the report says is needed. “We desperately need more of

old one day. The days are gone when you retired at 65 and died at 66. Now, we retire at 55 and die at 95, and in that 40 years anything can happen.” CAN’T MEET NEEDS
Until recently, there were only nine beds available at May Court. Eight more beds were opened earlier this year at the Embassy West Senior Living centre on Carling Avenue. “We have them full pretty well all the time,” says Hospice Care Ottawa executive director Lisa Sullivan, adding the average length of stay is between 12 to 15 days. “There is definitely a need out there for hospice beds and when we opened more beds, within a couple days they were full again.” There will be two more beds by October and there are plans to build a 10-bed residential hospice in Kanata by 2016. But even then, that will only bring Ottawa to less than half of what’s recommended. Only a year ago, the city was operating two separate hospices: the Friends of Hospice Ottawa and the Hospice at May Court. The two organizations joined forces in an effort to integrate funding and services for the city. Continued on page 27
DYING FOR DIGNITY Continued from page 26
Currently undergoing rebranding, the organization is now called Hospice Care Ottawa and has been working hard not only to get funding for its $1.7 million operating costs, but also to fill the gaps with other fundraisers and donation opportunities. Government funding only covers 40 per cent of the hospice’s total costs. Local health integration networks, which are funded by the province, pay $90,000 per bed – the standard across Ontario. “When they say $90,000 per bed that just covers the (registered nurse), all those who serve the needs of the patient,” Sullivan says. That money doesn’t help hospices purchase equipment, run day programs, or offer grief and bereavement counselling. “We have some services but they really just scratch the surface in terms of meeting the needs of our clients,” says Sullivan. “We can’t meet the needs of everyone in Ottawa. That’s a real area of concern.” The hospice, which includes

home-based hospice services, relies on the community to raise the additional 60 per cent to remain open every year through events, monetary donations and grants to pad the funding, says Sullivan. “It’s a real challenge, but that is why we do things like Hike for the Hospice, Home for the Holidays and Girls Night Out,” says Sullivan about community-based fundraising. “Without fundraisers, we wouldn’t have the services that we do.” For the executive director, dying is an important part of living and she says people need options when it comes to end-of-life care. “If it’s at home, how can we as a community support them for being at home?” asks Sullivan. “The longer we can keep them at the home, connected to the right services, give them the support they need, the less likely they are to go through those emergency doors and end up in a hospital bed. “If it gets to be too much at home, if the caregivers are exhausted, then they should have the choice of having a hospice bed available to them,” says Sullivan.

years, his family had a nurse visit in the evenings to help with his care. His wife, Kathleen, was his primary caregiver at home. But it became impossible after his chemotherapy was stopped. “It became a situation where, even though Lennox wanted to pass away at home, he just wasn’t able to because the cancer had spread through his whole body,” says Kathleen. “I felt fortunate that when the time did come, that May Court had a bed available for him,” she says. He passed away six days after being admitted to the May Court at the age of 51. “This was a devastating time in our lives, but to have our loved one cared for by the very special people at May Court in his final days gave us great comfort. We were allowed to be his wife and children without the stress of his daily care. But most importantly, Lennox was allowed to die with dignity,” says Kathleen, who now donates her time fundraising for the hospice.
“To have that bed available just took that stress away from myself and the kids. “It just allowed us to be able to spend those last six days with him in a more relaxed, calm, peaceful setting. The people that work at the May Court surround you with their compassion; they’re always there for you. That it just made that journey and those last six days of his life that much easier on us.” This type of care should be available to everyone who needs it, and that means more resources are needed. “Hospice care is an integral part of our health system,” says Sullivan. “We as a society recognize how important it is that dying is part of all our lives and that we create the kind of supports that people need during those last days of their life and make it available and accessible and as peaceful and as close to home as possible.” Special report by Michelle Nash, Jessica Cunha, Laura Mueller, Blair Edwards and Emma Jackson

Ontario should have between 900 to 1,030 hospice beds with a population of 13.5 million. Currently there are 231 beds open, 10 in construction and 141 in planning.

The amount of money that would be saved by shifting 10 per cent of patients at end of life from acute hospital care to hospice palliative care. It costs approximately $4,700 per client to provide palliative care in the home, or about one-quarter of the $19,000 cost for acute care.
Next week Part two looks at a new regional program in Ottawa, which aims to make the city a leader in hospice palliative care in the province.

Terry Fox Run at A.Lorne Cassidy on sunny day John Curry john.curry@metroland.com
News - The spirit of Terry Fox is alive and well and took to the streets of Stittsville last Friday afternoon as students of A. Lorne Cassidy Elementary School held its annual Terry Fox Run. Students wore paper patches on their backs, proclaiming that they were running in this Terry Fox in memory of a loved one such as an aunt or grandmother who has battled cancer. The day was sunny and warm with a blue sky as the students, along with some participating parents and teachers, assembled in the music-filled school yard to hear some final words of encouragement, to get some last minute instructions, witness a draw for a t-shirt from the Cancer Foundation which was won by student Sarah Charlebois and to go through a series of warm-up exercises such as rolling the shoulders, stepping side to side, and doing jumping jacks and knee jump.

Selling cakes to help Alzheimer Society in its work Continued from page 32
JOHN CURRY/METROLAND
Neva Slade places a name on the donation tree at the “Celebrating Memories Cake Sale” at the Stittsville Seniors Community by Revera on Stittsville Main Street in Stittsville last Friday, Sept. 20. The proceeds from the cake sale are being donated to the local chapter of the Alzheimer Society.
These were added to the cakes provided by Stittsville Seniors Community residents, their families and the facility’s staff including executive director Lisa Cowan herself to make for lots of cakes for sale at this second annual “Celebrating Memories Cake Sale” there. Cakes were sold for $20 each, with boxes being provided for transport and storage of them. New this year was a donation tree where those who did not wish to purchase a cake would have their donation recognized with their name placed on the tree. The tree was the idea of Stittsville Seniors Community resident Doris O’Neill who also used her artistic talents to create the tree. Besides this green donation tree, the lobby area at the Stittsville Seniors Community by
Revera (Stittsville Villa) on Stittsville Main Street in Stittsville was further adorned by purple and white balloons which were attached to the cake sale table, adding a further flourish of colour to the event. All of the proceeds from this second annual Celebrating Memories Cake Sale at the Stittsville Seniors Community by Revera in Stittsville, totaling $1,018.30, will be going to the local chapter of the Alzheimer Society to help with its work regarding Alzheimer’s disease education and provision of community support for those suffering from Alzheimer’s. This Celebrating Memories Cake Sale is part of the Revera Giving – Community in Action initiative. Through this program, Revera is trying to make a difference in the communities that it serves and give back
and support causes and organizations that are meaningful to its communities, clients and employees. The Alzheimer Society was chosen as the recipient of the funds raised by this cake sale because Alxheimer’s touches the lives of many of those served by the Stittsville Seniors Community. The cake sale happened last Friday, Sept. 20, just one day before World Alzheimer’s Day which took place last Saturday, Sept. 21. World Alzheimer’s Day, which happens on Sept. 21 each year, is a day on which Alzheimer’s organizations around the world focus their efforts on raising awareness about Alzheimer’s and other dementia. Alzheimer’s disease is the most common form of dementia, a group of disorders that impairs mental functioning.
As a pioneering home builder that helped to define the best and most livable neighbourhoods in Barrhaven, Campanale Homes is proud to mark the grand opening this month of their Longfields Station community. It represents a completion of a circle of excellence in creating affordable new homes for every type of buyer. Campanale Homes has been creating lasting investments in Ottawa and it’s surrounds for over three decades. Founders and brothers - Rocco, Tony and Vince started with a vision and desire to bring exceptional value and traditional craftsmanship to homes of varying sizes and styles. Longfields moves this standard even higher. Like their experienced craftspersons that turn plans into the reality, Campanale planners took the same care and skill to develop their community in the absolutely perfect Barrhaven location. Longfields is either a
cross-street walk or a short stroll to the most complete grouping of amenities. From Utman and South Nepean Parks to Mother Theresa Secondary School and P.E. Trudeau Public School, nothing is missing. Large retail centres and small independent shops abound within a few minutes by car or public transit, including the new Longfields Station, a new major key to efficient transit to the city core and beyond. The first phase of Longfields will be executive townhomes with sales models now open and a number of properties already owner occupied. Campanale Homes has worked tirelessly with suppliers and partners to be able to provide their customers with feature-laden homes. The threebedroom, 2.5 bathroom layouts will have long lasting and attractive ceramic and hardwood flooring throughout. They will offer EnergyStar rated appliances and central air with high-efficiency
natural gas furnaces and fireplaces. Starting at an ultra-competitive mid $310’s these spacious retreats and family centres, provide ample room for those on the grow with floor-plans ranging from 1,500 to over 2,000 square feet. For families with the need for extra space, Campanale is currently offering a fully-finished lower-level rec-room upgrade for less than $10,000! An in-house professional decorating team gives Campanale buyers the perfect balance of flow and function with ease of care. Kitchens that create family traditions of togetherness and quiet retreats and sun-drenched breakfast areas are the result of years of experience in satisfying particular home-owners. And like with all Campanale homes, the planning and advice services of their award-winning design centre is included to let individuals put their own personal touch on their living space.
Wireless home control experts ThreeCodes have turned these great towns into ihomes, providing new home owners with the ability to safely change climate controls, audio systems, personal security features, and lighting/ shade settings from anywhere via a smart-phone or computer connection. Future phases will see completion in a very timely manner thanks to the seemingly unlimited resources that an established builder like Campanale has access to. Two-level terrace homes, condominium flats, and condominium apartments with ground-level neighbourhood retail will complete Longfields in a master-plan that creates a secure quiet community that meets the needs of a wide variety of families of any size or age. Landscape architects will surround and connect the living structures with all manner of nature’s best, and first-time buyers will love the fact they can stay close to choice schools and enjoy short commutes without paying the premiums of inner-city properties. Those with a penchant for prepurchase research find it easy to discover how well a Campanale home does after time by simply

‘Jump Into Fall’ horse show at Westar Farms on Saturday Special to the News
JOHN CURRY/METROLAND
Field hockey action Players on the South Carleton High School Storm girls field hockey team defend their goal against an attack by Mother Teresa Catholic High School players during action in the high school West Division tier 2 field hockey game between the two teams at the Minto Field at the Nepean Sportsplex last Friday afternoon. Mother Teresa won the game by a 3-0 score.
News - The annual “Jump Into Fall” horse show at Westar Farms in Goulbourn is happening this coming Saturday, Sept. 28. It was originally scheduled for Saturday, Sept. 14 but rainy weather created wet grounds that forced the show’s postponement to this coming Saturday, Sept. 28. This Saturday promises to be a big day at Westar Farms, not only because of the re-scheduled horse show but also because this will be the evening for Westar Farms’ 25th anniversary party. Instead of just being a great evening of celebration and entertainment marking Westar’s 25 years in business, it has now become an all-day event with a full day of horse jumping followed by the anniversary party in the indoor arena. Everyone is welcome to drop by and take in the horse show which will run from 8 a.m. throughout the day. Those planning to attend are reminded to bring along a lawn chair for seating if possible. Westar Farms is located on Fernbank Road west of Stittsville and just east of Dwyer Hill Road in Goulbourn.

HolaEcuador: A Canadian beachfront development in Ecuador Enjoy a year-round tropical paradise in a secure, comfortable environment
Gordon Poole, Co-Owner of HolaEcuador, one of the Canadians taking part in the project.
Tired of scraping your windows and shovelling snow? Escape to the warmth and charm of Ecuador! Home to the world-famous GalĂĄpagos Islands, millions of hectares of untouched rainforests, massive Andes mountains and hundreds of kilometres of pristine beaches, Ecuador is ďŹ nding its place on the world stage as a top-tier destination. But itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not just the weather thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s hot in Ecuador â&#x20AC;&#x201D; the real estate market is cooking too, and a Canadian company is making it easy to own a beachfront paradise of which dreams are made. HolaEcuador Property Development Inc. develops and sells beach properties on the PaciďŹ c coast of Ecuador. Mirador San Jose â&#x20AC;&#x201D; the largest of HolaEcuadorâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s projects â&#x20AC;&#x201D; has over 1600 lots to choose from. Managed by Canadian owners and investors, Mirador San Jose is the perfect winter escape, retirement project, investment and/or rental property opportunity.
oceanfront restaurant? One of the most biodiverse places on the planet, Ecuador is the ideal location for outdoor activities such as all types of water sports, biking, ďŹ shing, hiking and nature-gazing. Need a ďŹ x of culture and culinary wonders? The capital city Quito, perched among volcanoes in the Andes mountains at 9,350 feet boasts the UNESCO World Heritage colonial district, with architecture, restaurants and nightlife that rival the best of European cities. Fantastic climate The climate in Ecuador is ideal all year long, without the extreme wet seasons that are common to the tropics. Being located on the equator, the country never experiences the devastating hurricanes and major tropical storms that are commonplace in regions such as Mexico and Florida. The average temperature varies between 23C and 28C and the water temperature in front of Mirador San Jose is 23C or more, throughout the year. Excellent investment
Why Ecuador? Unparalleled mix of nature and culture Where else can you visit a volcano on horseback in the morning, meet tribal elders at an Amazonian jungle resort in the afternoon and ďŹ nish the day with a seafood dinner in an
In addition to all the great lifestyle advantages of being in Ecuador, it is also an incredible investment opportunity not to be overlooked. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We have many property owners that missed the Costa Rica boom and are very pleased to ďŹ nd that itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s still possible to acquire a property

Owning property at the Mirador San Jose is ideal for those looking to diversify their investment portfolio. The value of the lots at the development has increased on average by 45 per cent over the last two years. And there are no taxes on capital gains on the occasional sale of properties in Ecuador, even for second and third residences, which makes investing in Ecuadorian real estate and interesting alternative to the stock markets. Further, property owners can take advantage of the property value increase while generating rental income.
Welcome to Mirador San Jose Mirador San Jose is located 60 kilometres south of Eloy Alfaro International Airport in the port city of Manta and just minutes north of Machalilla National Park, a spectacular jungle and marine park. Accessible by the Routa del Sol, a brand new highway built speciďŹ cally to cater to the regionâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s growing tourist population, Mirador San Jose consists of over 1600 lots on a 130-acre, master planned, gated beachfront property. The development features all basic services (water, sewage, electricity) running underground, as well as domestic waste and sewage recycling, high speed Internet, plenty of parks, playgrounds and recreational areas with tennis courts, soccer ďŹ eld and swimming pools. Further, there are three sectors within the development zoned for restaurants, bars, shops, boutiques, cafĂŠs, grocery stores and a medical centre. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re not buying a cottage lot; these are full ownership properties in a resort town,â&#x20AC;? says Mr. Poole. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Fully serviced lots a short 10-minute walk from the beach are available for under $1 ,000. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s very difficult to find this value and quality elsewhere in the world, which is why our properties are sell-ing quickly. Of the 00+ home sites sold to
date, more than 0 have been purchased by Canadians, and the remainder mainly by Ecuadorians. Since September alone, home sites have been snapped up by OttawaGatineau residents.â&#x20AC;? Once clients have secured their lot, HolaEcuador will help them build the beach home of their dreams. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We offer many home models for all tastes and budgets,â&#x20AC;? says Mr. Poole. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We also offer custom house and condominium design services. Our architects and engineers work with clients to make their dream house a reality, at prices that are a fraction of what they would pay in North America. Luxurious homes can be built in Ecuador for US$75 to $95 per square foot. We have nice little two-bedroom bungalows that are available for only $55,000 and larger, two-story luxurious homes with private pool available for $161,900 â&#x20AC;&#x201D; land and taxes included!â&#x20AC;?
HolaEcuador Property Development Inc. HolaEcuador Property Development Inc. is owned and operated by Canadians with offices in Trois-Rivières DQG *DWLQHDX QC and Manta, Ecuador, with regional sales representatives across Eastern Canada. Coowner Gordon Poole lives in the Ottawa area and makes frequent visits to the Mirador San Jose project, where a team of Canadian and Ecuadorian professionals are permanently located. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Nearly half of our clientele comes from referrals from existing customers, which demonstrates how excited property owners are to be part of this community,â&#x20AC;? says Mr. Poole. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Our property owners vary from adventurers in their 20s to pre-retirees in their 40s and 50s who are buying property now, while itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s still affordable. Some intend to use their property for vacationing only, while others are planning to use it as a rental income investment. Certain clients see property ownership in Ecuador as a means to stretch their vacation and investment dollars further, while others are simply looking to escape the cold winters. Here in Ecuador you can do both.â&#x20AC;? HolaEcuador will be holding a free informational seminar on the lifestyle and financial benefits of property ownership in Ecuador on 6HSWHPEHU 2 and 2FWREHU DQG .

in an oceanfront development such as ours,â&#x20AC;? says Gordon Poole, co-owner of HolaEcuador. â&#x20AC;&#x153;In fact, real estate prices in Ecuador match those of Costa Rica of 15 years ago.â&#x20AC;? Indeed, many people dream of owning a property in the tropics, but the capital costs can be signiďŹ cant. Property in Ecuador, however, is absolutely within the reach of many Canadiansâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; budget. Ecuadorians enjoy the lowest cost of living in all of South America, a high standard of living and a stable, democratic government.

Great fiddling but more! John Curry john.curry@metroland.com
News - There was a lot of great fiddling as might be expected in a show featuring renowned Cape Breton fiddler Natalie MacMaster and her husband and fellow fiddler Donnell Leahy, considered in his own right as one of the best fiddlers in the world and a member of the internationally acclaimed family music group “Leahy.” And so whether it was the iconic “The Anniversary Waltz,” a 1941 song that has been covered by such singers as Connie Francis and Bing Crosby, or a rollicking, foot stomping, high tempo tune played by Natalie that generated rhythmic clapping throughout the audience or a tune played by Donnell that started out slowly but then evolved into a foot stomping, fast moving piece that ended with a fiddle flourish, generat-
ing a mountain of applause, fiddling was front and centre – and great – at this show on Thursday, Sept. 19 at the Richmond Memorial Community Centre arena opening this year’s Richmond Fair. When Natalie and Donnell faced each other and performed like dueling fiddlers, going faster and faster in their playing, you could not help but get excited. And it was excitement that prevailed when Natalie did a spurt of step dancing while holding her fiddle, with the excitement growing when Donnell joined her and the two of them step danced in unison. Yes, there was more to this show than just fiddling. And there was more ripples of revelry in the audience when her band member piano player Mac Morin left his keyboard and did a spot of step dancing. Drummer Eric Breton, the only
other regular member of Natalie’s band who was performing at this gig, showed his talent later in the show, not step dancing but playing what Natalie called a “Collection Box Solo,” holding the audience’s attention with his solo drumming on a small wooden collection box as would be found in a church, opening the lid, tapping on its side, all in rhythm. Natalie and Donnell and band members Mac and Eric were joined for this performance in Richmond by Donnell’s sister Siobheann, another Leahy musical group member, playing the bass guitar. At the end of the show, she performed a step dancing flourish while holding her guitar, much to the delight of the audience. But the real hit of the show was when four of the five children of Natalie and Donnell appeared on stage, with six year old Michael playing a fiddle tune, followed by seven year old Mary Frances playing. They both also step danced and were eventually joined by their two younger siblings, four year old Clare and two year old Julia as they all step danced as their parents fiddled beside them. And this was not the only family aspect to the concert. Earlier in the evening, Natalie revealed that a sixth child is on the way, to join Mary Frances, Michael, Clare, Julia and one year old Alec.
And later in the show, Natalie and Donnell chatted with the audience who learned that the couple first met in 1991 and were married in 2002. But the audience also learned the story behind their first meeting. Donnell had been performing with his family in Germany for six months, three shows a day. While there he became exposed to Natalie MacMaster’s music thanks to a tape which had been purchased. But there was no picture of her with the tape and so he had no idea what she looked like. But in returning to Canada, he decided he had to meet her and phoned her out of the blue to ask her to dinner. Because they were going to meet in a crowded foyer, he asked her to bring along her fiddle so that he would be able to recognize her. Donnell admitted to the Richmond audience that when Natalie appeared with her fiddle, he found the view absolutely gorgeous – we are not sure if he meant the fiddle or the then-18 year old Natalie although after some noticeable audience amusement, he quickly admitted that it is Natalie who is beautiful. It was this kind of family and personal touch to this performance by Natalie and Donnell that lifted it to that special level of not only an entertaining evening but also a memorable one. No one who was there – and the ice slab at the arena was two-thirds jammed with the audience – will soon forget this night at the Richmond arena. An immediate standing ovation when the show ended just before
10:30 p.m. was evidence of this, as was the closing remarks of MC Dai Bassett of Valley Heritage Radio in Renfrew – “What a show, what a show!” he proclaimed. Natalie MacMaster, who is a Juno and Grammy award-winning fiddler, has released 11 albums, with “Cape Breton Girl” being her most recent one. Born in 1972, she is known for her Cape Breton style of music. Over the years, she has performed on such stages as Carnegie Hall and Massey Hall and has appeared on television numerous times. Her three decade career has seen her capture eight Canadian Country Music Association awards and ten East Coast Music awards among other honours, including an honorary doctor of divinity degree from the Atlantic School of Theology and, along with her husband Donnell Leahy, an honorary doctorate from Trent University. Donnell Leahy not only performs with Natalie on occasions like this show in Richmond but also is the frontman and plays fiddle along his seven brothers and sisters in the acclaimed band Leahy which has released multiple albums, received several Juno Awards and was featured in an Oscar-winning documentary “The Leahys: Music Most of All.” The current eight members of the Leahy folk music group are all siblings from Lakefield, Ontario. Each member has a main role that he or she plays in the band, although most play more than one instrument and all of them step dance.

City of Ottawa Councillor Reports By Shad Qadri, Councillor Ward Six Stittsville City of Ottawa
September 20th, 2013 FATAL OC TRANSPO- VIA RAIL COLLISION As you are aware, a fatal incident occurred Wednesday morning involving an OC Transpo bus and a VIA Rail train in Ottawa. This horrific event has touched us all. My thoughts and prayers go to all those who have been affected by this terrible tragedy. I would like to thank all of our Emergency responders for their great team work and leadership, along with all of the support services and the OC Transpo family that made themselves ready and available to assist those in need. I would also like to thank the residents on the bus that helped each other in the instances immediately following the accident. Finally, I would like to thank the Mayor and his team for their leadership during this crisis. A book of condolences has been made available in Jean Piggott Hall and the Nepean Sportsplex for staff and the public to express their condolences. City flags have been placed at half mast to signal the City of Ottawaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s sadness for the tragic loss of life.
PLANNED POWER OUTAGES IN STITTSVILLE

New Lionettes president makes pitch for new west end hospice John Curry john.curry@metroland.com
News - Incoming Stittsville Lionette president June Warner used the occasion of her installation into the presidential ofďŹ ce last Friday evening to issue a plea and a challenge to her fellow Lionette Club members to do some fundraising to help make a west end hospice a reality. Juneâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s husband, Ivan, who was chosen as Citizen of the Year in the Stittsville Appreciation Awards earlier this year, passed away after spending his ďŹ nal days at the newly opened Embassy West Hospice, a facility which has now grown to 14 beds from an initial four beds. But there still remains no residential hospice in the west end of Ottawa to serve residents of Stittsville, Richmond, Kanata, West Carleton and surrounding areas. Hospice Care Ottawa has recently purchased the former Trinity Presbyterian Church site on McCurdy Drive in Kanata for use as ofďŹ ce and program space and as the site for a residential hospice in the future, hopefully by 2016. A six million dollar capital campaign is now underway to help make this happen. Mrs. Warner urged the Lionettes and other groups to become involved with fundraising for this facility, noting how successful the Stittsville community was in the late 1960â&#x20AC;&#x2122;s and early 1970â&#x20AC;&#x2122;s in raising funds to build the Stittsville District Community Centre which is now called the Johnny Leroux Stittsville Community Arena. She said that it is time that
area residents do something about having a hospice to serve the west end of the city. Other than the new Embassy West Hospice near the intersection of Carling Avenue and Kirwood Avenue, there are only the Hospice at Maycourt in Ottawa South and the Bruyere palliative
care facility in downtown Ottawa to serve the needs of those who are terminally ill and wish to spend their ďŹ nal days in the home-like and comfortable surroundings associated with hospice care. Mrs. Warner noted that Ivan refused to go to either the May-

court or Bruyere facilities, contending that it was time that there was a hospice facility in the west end to meet the needs of the residents of this area. He did agree to go to the new Embassy West Hospice last April which was only has as long to get to as the other facilities. Vicki Potter, who becomes immediate past president of the Stittsville Lionettes after serving as president for the past year, noted that the Club had had a great and busy year including the hosting of the Lionettes rally in Stittsville last April. She thanked her executive for their efforts over the year. Members of the Stittsville Lionettes new 2013-2014 executive as installed last Friday at the Lions Hall in Stittsville are June Warner as president; Diane Davidson as ďŹ rst vice-president; Debbie Carson as secretary; Georgette St. John as treasurer; Clare Redtman as penalty ofďŹ cer; and Vicki Potter as immediate past president. The position of second vice-president is vacant. The Stittsville Lionettes continue as one of six Lionettes clubs in the area. At one time, there were 12 such clubs but the number has decreased to six at present. A Lionettes Club exists primarily to support a Lions Club and its members in their work and initiatives in the community. Lionette members usually have some connection to members or former members of a Lions Club. The Stittsville Lionettes Club has worked for the past 39 years to support the work of the Stittsville District Lions Club.
In conjunction with the City of Ottawaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Fernbank Road and Shea Road roundabout rehabilitation work, Hydro Ottawa began a project to relocate and install new hydro poles at the intersection of Fernbank and Shea Road.

In my column last week, I announced a series of public consultations on the ongoing review of the Official Plan, Infrastructure Master Plan, Transportation Master Plan, Cycling Plan and Pedestrian Plan. I also announced that the Transportation Master Plan would be launched this week. Due to the unfortunate and tragic events that took place last week, the launch and subsequent meetings have been postponed until October. As soon as I have information on their rescheduling, I will post it here. Scheduled Power Outage Last week, I indicated some possible times for scheduled power outages in conjunction with the roundabout construction at the intersection of Shea Road and Fernbank Road. These times have now been revised. These planned outages, approximately 15-30 minutes in duration, will now take place on October 3rd and October 7th at 10:00am. Rain dates will be on October 10th and 14th. Affected areas include Munster Hamlet, Dwyer Hill (between Copeland Road & Purdy Road and between Dwyer Hill Road and Ashton Station Road), and the area directly around the intersection of Shea Road and Fernbank Road. Rideau Township Hall Historical Exhibit Launch This Saturday, September 28th, I am inviting all residents to the grand opening of a permanent exhibit located in the old Rideau Township Hall at 2155 Roger Stevens Drive. This exhibit will be featured on the walls of the former Council Chambers and will serve to commemorate the political history of Marlborough, North Gower and Rideau Townships.

Prize winners in parade John Curry john.curry@metroland.com
For the last three years, I have stared at these walls that have only featured Rideau Township Councils from 1985-1997. It also featured several Reeves and Mayors from 1972-1985. However, our history is so much greater than this small window and it deserves commemoration. This exhibit will allow residents of Rideau-Goulbourn and elsewhere see the names and pictures of those individuals who have served our area as Wardens, Reeves, Mayors, Councillors and Clerks over the last two hundred years.
News - “Neither rain nor snow nor sleet nor gloom of night..” is how the unofficial creed of the United States Postal Service reads. Well, it could also apply to the Richmond Fair as an all-day rain last Saturday did not halt the annual Fair parade and with the parade went the judging of the floats.

mond captured the first prize. Third prize went to the Richmond Nursery floral decorated float. There was no second prize awarded. In the Antiques category, only one prize was award. It was a third prize which went to Preston Harris and his antique tractor entry. In the Organizations category, the Goulbourn Township Historical Society’s float featuring the Duke of Richmond and other costumed figures received the first prize. Second prize went to the Richmond Village Association while the Goulbourn Skating Club float took third prize.
If you aren’t able to attend Saturday, the exhibit will be permanent and will be open to the public on Thursdays when the Client Service Centre is open. I would like to thank Georgina Tupper of the Rideau Township Historical Society and Wendy Eberwein from our office for their work on putting this together. I hope to see many of you out to visit with your former representatives and take in some of our local history. You may even discover who your road was named after.

Steady rain creates ‘Umbrella Parade’ John Curry
john.curry@metroland.com
News - The annual Richmond Fair parade became the “Umbrella Parade” last Saturday. Due to a steady rain which fell throughout the whole day including during before, during and after the 11 a.m. parade, umbrellas became the object of choice, not only for many of the spectators who braved the wet to turn out to watch the parade but also for a number riding on the floats that moved along the rain-drebcged route from South Carleton High School to the Richmond fairgrounds. As has become the tradition, a Royal Canadian Legion colour party from the Richmond Legion led off the parade again this year. Their flags were not flying in the breeze as usual but instead, rain soaked as they were, they hung clinging to their poles. This year’s parade featured three highland pipe bands. There were also a collection of military vehicles, one of which was transporting members of the Richmond Legion along the route. There were the usual dignitaries taking part – Richmond Agricultural Society president Gerd Lohmann and Homecraft president Denise Crawford, Carleton-Mississippi Mills MP Gordon O’Connor, Nepean-Carleton MPP Lisa MacLeod, city of Ottawa mayor Jim Watson and city of Ottawa Rideau-Goulbourn ward councillor Scott Moffatt.
And moving along in the rain were a number of colourful floats, decorated with corn stalks, pumpkins, hay bales, scarecrows or flowers, with umbrellas a common accessory for those riding on these floats. They included the floats of the Goulbourn Skating Club, the Richmond Munster Minor Hockey Association, Richmond Nursery, the Goulbourn Township Historical Society, Creekside Gardens, the Richmond Village Association featuring a big brown fox, the Richmond Cooperative Nursery School, and Harmony Gardens. Other entries in the parade included Ottawa Fire Service trucks from Station 82 in Richmond and Station 81 in Stittsville, Southpaw Property Management, Loyal Orange Lodge 151 of Richmond, Car-o-Practor with several vehicles, Fallowfield Tree Farm with a couple of giant machines including a tree spade holding a tall tree, a Royal LePage sports car, a Week Loads vehicle, a trailer full of vintage tractors and a wagon from Francois latour, Preston Harris pulling an antique tractor on a trailer, several vintage cars including an Impala, a Volkswagen Beetle and the Ralph family’s pink classic, an array of vehicles from the Myers automotive dealerships, the Richmond District Lions Club entry with some members wearing, what else, but lion costumes. All in all, it was quite a parade, rain or not. And it may have set a world record for most umbrellas in a parade.

Liam Baglole off to England in March for soccer Special to the News
Sports - A ten year old Stittsville player will be off on a soccer experience of a lifetime this coming March. He will be travelling to England to train with the Youth Academy of English Premier League team Liverpool F.C. It will all be happening in March 2014 when Liam Baglole, a ten year old grade five student at Ecole JeanPaul II Elementary School in Stittsville, will fly to England to train with the Youth Academy of Liverpool F.C., the world famous English Premier League soccer club. Liam is one of a dozen young soccer players from Eastern Ontario who have been selected to train under the supervision of the Liverpool coaching staff as well as play a series of exhibition games against Youth Academy players from English Premier League teams Manchester City, Fulham, Everton and Chelsea. In England, top level professional teams like these have youth squads that they use to develop talented players beginning at the age of nine. “I know what the players my age are like here in Ontario and in Quebec,” says Liam, who began playing soccer at the age of four. “But it will be cool to see what the top players my age are like in England, where soccer is everyone’s favourite sport.” Liam began playing with West Ottawa Soccer where he was a prolific
striker before being recruited by the Ottawa South United club. Liam currently plays for Ottawa South United’s top Force Black team, training under coach Paul Harris who was previously a Youth Academy trainer at English Premier League Club Everton F.C.
At Everton, coach Harris helped to develop professional players such as Manchester United forward Wayne Rooney. Coach Harris is now working to identify top talent here in the nation’s capital and to provide these players with opportunities to showcase their skills to the world’s leading
soccer organizations. For instance, a group of 13 year old Ottawa South United players recently trained at Real Madrid in Spain, perhaps the world’s most famous soccer club. “Having a chance to go to England is pretty great,” says Liam. “Coach Paul says he expects us to soak up the

soccer culture over there and come back even more motivated to play.” Liam, who describes himself as a “physical player and generous passer,” will be joined on this British excursion to the Liverpool F.C. by other skilled ten year old players from across Eastern Ontario including from Cumberland, Greely and Smiths Falls. He will be spending this fall and winter preparing for his upcoming challenge in England by competing in an indoor Coliseum League against U12 soccer players who are two years older than him. “Playing against older kids is tough,” says Liam, who spent the past summer competing in the top tier of U11 soccer in Eastern Ontario. “But it provides the challenge we need to get better,” he adds. “And we’ll need to be ready for the players we face in England.” Liam adds that he is working hard to make faster decisions on the soccer pitch, a skill that is needed as the game’s intensity rises and rival players try to take away his time and space in game situations. “What I like most about playing soccer is the team work,” says Liam. “I feels awesome when our team is moving the ball well around the field,” he says. “At Ottawa South United, they teach us that it’s not enough to simply kick the ball. The goal is to play with style. And win with style.”

Coalition wants community to keep fighting Continued from page 9
“This landfill is not for Ottawa waste, it is for Ontario waste,” she said. But she remains convinced that the community has to keep fighting this issue. “If we don’t do anything, we will lose,” she said.
She admitted that people are tired of talking about the issue after eight years since the first proposal but she said that part of the Waste Management strategy is to wear the opposition down. She said that groups which have successfully opposed a new landfill in their community have not let this happen.
The city of Ottawa still must rezone a part of the site of the new landfill to make it able to host a landfill site. But it was pointed out at the meeting that if the city tries to dictate too many conditions as part of the rezoning approval, then Waste Management would go to the Ontario Municipal Board which would prob-
ably approve the rezoning based on the province’s current laws regarding such facilities. There have been no applications received by the city as yet from Waste Management regarding rezoning for the site or a site plan for the new landfill, councillor Qadri reported at the meeting.
Groups associated with the Coalition of Citizen Groups opposed to a new landfill site on Carp Road just north of highway 417 include no.dump.ca, the Richardson Corridor Community Association, the Stittsville Village Association, OttawaLandfillWatch.org and the Huntley Manor Community Association.

Here comes the 2013 Haunting Season John Curry john.curry@metroland.com
News - The 2013 Haunting Season at Saunders Farm in Munster begins this coming weekend. This opening weekend of Saturday, Sept. 28 and Sunday, Sept. 29 will see the launch of the Farmâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s new restaurant, a brand new American-style extreme haunt attraction, changes to several popular attractions and a couple of special events. All in all, 2013 promises to be what Director of Fun Mark Saunders would call the â&#x20AC;&#x153;most eek-citing and delicious Haunting Seasonâ&#x20AC;? ever at Saunders Farm. And thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s saying something, because Saunders Farm, which has won local, regional and international awards for its innovative leadership in the agri-tourism industry, has seen hundreds of thousands of visitors over the Farmâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s 38 year history, all attracted by its spook-tacular and eerie-sistible attractions for the whole
family. One â&#x20AC;&#x153;must seeâ&#x20AC;? this Haunting Season at Saunders Farm is the Farmâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s new Farmers Table walk-up restaurant. This is now a reality after four years of planning, studying, calculating, debating and almost giving up a dozen times due to bureaucracy. This state-of-the-art kitchen is the largest single project undertaken in the Farmâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s history. With the opening of this new restaurant, Saunders Farm will be offering â&#x20AC;&#x153;REAL FOOD served quickly.â&#x20AC;? With the restaurant facility now available, Saunders Farm will be innovating how and what kinds of food are served at the Farm during its special events and its everyday happenings. In addition, Saunders Farm will share ideas with guests on how to eat, make and share delicious real food for families. So, you are going to be well fed at Saunders Farm this Haunting Season and into the future thanks to this new restaurant.
But Saunders Farm did not get to be the most popular fall attraction in the Ottawa region without having some scary attractions. And this year another one is being added, namely the brand new Camp S/Laughter, an American-style extreme haunt attraction that will allow a visitor to take part in those scary movies that are seen in theatres. The Farmâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Haunting Season favourites, the Haunted Hayride and the Barn of Terror, are both back this fall but both have added new scenes and new rooms to provide more thrills and scares than ever before. Saunders Farm is also changing things up a bit on its Ghost Town Stage. A tribute to the Farmâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s beloved Super Heroes will be staged, so make sure that you see Larry Scary, the Green Queen and Mortimer Toad in â&#x20AC;&#x153;Fatman â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Stage Fright Rise.â&#x20AC;? The Zombie Paintball shooting gallery is back again this year but it is now in a brand new paintball field
section of the Farm. Thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a couple of special events coming up in October that will make Saunders Farm a place where you will want to be. On Saturday, Oct. 5, Saunders Farm will be marking Spartacatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Birthday. It will be Ottawa Senators day on the Farm, complete with Spartacat, Ottawa Senators inflatables and birthday cake. Friday, Oct. 11 and Saturday, Oct. 12 will be a special couple of days at Saunders Farm as Saunders Farm joins with Wendy and Allan Hubley and the Youth Services Bureau of Ottawa to help youth by raising money and creating awareness to support mental health services. This third annual â&#x20AC;&#x153;Scaring is Caring â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Celebrating Acceptanceâ&#x20AC;? fundraiser is in memory of Jamie Hubley and his dream. Jamie worked at Saunders Farm for two Haunting Seasons, working as various characters on the Haunted Hayride.
For this â&#x20AC;&#x153;Scaring is Caring â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Celebrating Acceptanceâ&#x20AC;? fundraiser, five dollars from each admission to the Farm will be donated to the Youth Services Bureau. Saunders Farm employs more than 180 paid staff for its Haunting Season. Haunting Season 2013 will run from Saturday, Sept. 28 to Thursday, Oct. 31 but the Farm is only open weekends during this time except for Halloween Week itself when it will be open each night from 6 p.m. to 9 p.m. from Monday, Oct. 28 to Thursday, Oct. 31. Weekend hours for the 2013 Haunting Season are Fridays from 6 p.m. to 10 p.m.; Saturdays from 10 a.m. to 10 p.m.; and Sundays from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. The Farm will also be open on Thanksgiving Monday from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. Information about Saunders Farm can be found online at www.saundersfarm.com or can be obtained by calling 613-838-5440.

Poet at library Special to the News
News - â&#x20AC;&#x153;Imagine Mercyâ&#x20AC;? is poet David Groulxâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s sixth book. And now you will be able to hear the poet himself read from â&#x20AC;&#x153;Imagine Mercyâ&#x20AC;? at the Stittsville branch of the Ottawa Public Library this Saturday, Sept. 28 from 2 p.m. to 3 p.m. Registration is required for those wishing to attend this free reading. Registration is capped at 15 people but there are still a few remaining spaces available. Registration can be done online at www.biblioottawalibrary.ca under â&#x20AC;&#x153;Programsâ&#x20AC;? or by telephoning 613-8363381. David Groulx was raised in Elliot Lake in northern Ontario, the son of a French Canadian father and an Ojibwe mother. He is proud of his native and Metis roots as indeed the poetry in his latest book reveals. The website of his publisher, Bookland Press Inc., describes â&#x20AC;&#x153;Imagine Mercyâ&#x20AC;? as â&#x20AC;&#x153;a vibrant poetry collection portraying the daily realities of living as an Aboriginal in Canada.â&#x20AC;? The website goes on to describe the book and its poet author as follows: â&#x20AC;&#x153;David Groulx seamlessly weaves the spiritual with the ordinary and the present with the past. He speaks for the spirit, determination and courage of Aboriginal people, compelling readers to confront cruel reality with his honest and inspiring vision. The poems in â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Imagine Mercyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; portray mixed bloods, resistance, determination, sovereignty and cultural issues that generate sharply divided opinions and deep emotional struggles. Groulxâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s poetic power renders an honest and painful perception of modern-day Aboriginal life with a strong voice against prejudice and injustice.â&#x20AC;? David Groulx attended Lakehead University in Thunder Bay where he received his B.A. and where he won the Munro Poetry Prize. He won the Simon J. Lucas Jr. Memorial Award for poetry at the Enâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;owkin Centre in Penticton, B.C. He was also a co-winner at Harbourfront Centreâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s 2011 Poetry NOW competition. David Groulx has written five previous books of poetry, starting with â&#x20AC;&#x153;Night in the Exudeâ&#x20AC;? in 1997. His previous one before this latest one was â&#x20AC;&#x153;Rising With A Distant Dawnâ&#x20AC;? which was published in 2012.

Girl Guide Cookies in Richmond BBQ at Sobeys John Curry
John Curry john.curry@metroland.com
News - Girl Guide Cookie time is coming in Richmond. Sparks, Brownies, Guides and Pathfinders will be going door-to-door in Richmond this coming Wednesday, Oct. 2 selling the Girl Guides’ Minty Cookies for $5 per box. If you are away from home during the door-to-door canvas or are missed, you can arrange for the purchase of these Minty Cookies by calling Community Guider Debbie Markell at 613-838-5998 or via email at debbiemarkell@gmail.com. These chocolatey mint cookies have
proven popular since they came into prominence in the 1990’s. It was in 1995 that these chocolatey mint cookies were sold right across Canada. In 2009, Girl Guides of Canada launched reduced trans fats in these chocolatey mint cookies. It was even earlier, in 2003, that these chocolatey mint cookies, along with the classic chocolate and vanilla Girl Guide cookies, were produced in a nut-free and peanut-free bakery. It was in 2012 that Girl Guide Cookie boxes got a new look, featuring fun illustrations tracing the journey from Sparks right up through the different branches of Guiding. The chocolatey mint cookies sold by
john.curry@metroland.com
Guiding are available every fall while the classic chocolate and vanilla sandwich cookies are sold every spring. Proceeds from the sale of Girl Guide cookies support various Guiding activities. Over 5.5 million boxes of Girl Guide cookies are sold across Canada each year. Girl Guides Canada has been selling cookies since 1927 when a Girl Guide leader in Regina baked and packaged cookies as a fundraiser. The sale of cookies became an official Girl Guides of Canada fundraising activity in 1929. They have now become a Canadian tradition. Girl Guide cookies are now the official fundraiser of Girl Guides of Canada.
News - It’s a unique “Show and Tell” presentation that ends with a “donut” that you don’t eat. But you do eat at a follow-up BBQ. And it’s all part of a fundraiser that can raise lots of money, in this case for A. Lorne Cassidy Elementary School in Stittsville. This is happening thanks to Stittsville Sobeys and its partnership with Canadian stock car racing driver DJ Kennington in its “Fuel for Kids” fundraiser program. Stittsville Sobeys has partnered with A. Lorne Cassidy Elementary School to host a “Fuel for Kids” fundraiser this Friday, Sept. 27 and Saturday, Sept. 28. This program has been operating in community all across Ontario for the past seven years, raising over $150,000 in total for local elementary schools. Here’s how it will work: This Friday, Sept. 27, stock car racing driver DJ Kennington, who competes in the NASCAR Canadian Tire Series, will be at the school to present a unique “Show and Tell” session which takes the form of an educational talk about the various safety elements involved both in what he wears as a driver as well as what is designed into his race car. Following the “Show and Tell” presentation, students can assemble outside where DJ Kennington will do a final “donut” goodbye in his #17 Castrol Edge/Sobeys race car. It’s always a hit with the students. But this is not the last that A. Lorne Cassidy students, their parents and indeed others in the community will see of DJ Kennington, his race car and his race crew. On the next day, this Saturday, Sept. 28, they will be at Stittsville Sobeys at the Stittsville Corners shopping area at the corner of Hazeldean Road and Carp Road where they will be joined by parent volunteers and Sobeys staff for a fundraising BBQ, running from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m., with all of the proceeds going to the school. There will be hot dogs, juice boxes and water available, plus a few other snacks. Prices will range from $2 to $4 depending on what is ordered. But all the food and BBQ items are being donated by Stittsville Sobeys, so that every dollar raised will go to the school. Besides attending the BBQ, you will be able to get a close up look at DJ Kennington’s NASCAR stock car. DJ himself will be on hand at the BBQ, signing autographs and giving youngsters (and perhaps some not so young) a chance to hop into his Castrol/Sobeys sponsored NASCAR stock car. DJ Kennington, who was born in St. Thomas, Ontario in 1977, was the NASCAR Canadian Tire Series champion in both 2010 and 2012. In 2008, he was honoured as the NASCAR Canadian Tire Series most popular driver. He has participated in over 150 NASCAR Canadian Tire Series races over the past 12 years.

Five players from the Stittsville/Richmond area who played for the Bell Warriors tyke football team at the annual Warrior Day at Beckwith Field last Saturday are, from left, Keelor Goffin, a linebacker; Aiden-Ty â&#x20AC;&#x153;ATVâ&#x20AC;? Vallati, a running back; Ryan Morisette, an offensive lineman; Duncan Kemp, a running back; and Avery Osborne, linebacker.
Sports - â&#x20AC;&#x153;Wâ&#x20AC;? was the letter of the day last Saturday at Beckwith Field near Carleton Place. Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s because it was not only Warrior Day when all four Bell Warriors football teams were squaring off against their Kanata Knights counterparts but also because it was a â&#x20AC;&#x153;wetâ&#x20AC;? day, with rain starting before the first game at 9 a.m. and continuing throughout the day. Fortunately, Beckwith Field has artificial turf so there was not the mud that might be expected from a grass field but it was still a wet Warrior Day â&#x20AC;&#x201C; a â&#x20AC;&#x153;Wâ&#x20AC;? day if there ever was one. This was the third annual Bell Warriors Football Club Warrior Day at which all four Bell Warriors teams from tyke (ages 8-10) through mosquito (ages 11-12) and pee wee (ages 13-14) up to bantam (ages 15-16) take to the field in consecutive games to display Bell Warrior football at its best. The Bell Warriors Football Club offers a tackle football program for players between the ages of 8 and 16. In existence since 1955, the Bell Warriors Football Club draws its players from a territory which includes Stittsville, Richmond, Munster, Bells Corners, Crystal Beach, Bayshore and Britannia. The Bell Warriors Football Club stresses skill development, sportsmanship and the value of teamwork in its programs.

Here comes the deadline! Special to the News
Ottawa’s #1 Ranked Soccer Club
News – This Monday, Sept. 30 is the deadline for the submission of entries to this year’s heritage photo contest being sponsored by the Goulbourn Township Historical Society. Up until then, entries can be dropped off at the Stittsville, Richmond and Munster branches of the Ottawa Public Library. Entries must be colour or black and white prints, anything up to 8 x 10 inches in size. Entries to this “A Snapshot in Time” photo contest must be original shots taken within the boundaries of the former township of Goulbourn during 2013. They cannot have been previously published or entered in any other contest or showing. There are five different theme categories, with a photographer allowed to submit up to two entries in each category. Entries should be enclosed
in a sealed envelope with each separate photo clearly marked on its back with the location where it was taken, the subject, the name, address and phone number of the photographer and the theme category being entered. In addition, brief notes explaining the historical connection of a particular shot are welcomed. Such information could potentially enhance the points awarded by the judges for a particular entry. The five theme categories in this year’s photo contest are “Heritage Homes in Goulbourn”; “The Richmond Fair 2013: Tomorrow’s History”; “Goulbourn Swamps & Wetlands”; “Links to the Past”; and “Heritage Tombstones.” This year, a new wrinkle has been added to this annual heritage photo contest and that is a special youth category, open to local residents aged 17 and under.
The categories are the same as are the contest rules such as the photo must be taken this year within the boundaries of the former Goulbourn township. But in this youth section of the contest, entries are to be submitted via email, with a one Megabyte (MB) file size as the maximum allowed per shot. Such entries are to be emailed to YouthPhotoContest@GoulbournHistoricalSociety.org . For all entrants to this heritage photo contest, both young and others, there is no entry fee. However, all entries do become the property of the Goulbourn Township Historical Society. Judging will be based on both historic interest and photographic merits such as the use of lighting, composition and impact. Detailed rules can be found on the Historical Society’s website at www. goulbournhistoricalsociety.org . There will be prizes awarded and a public unveiling of the contest’s winning entries will be held.
OSU 2000 GirlsForce Academy are the New Ontario Provincial Champions In a first for Ottawa soccer, The Ottawa South United 2000 Girls Force Academy Black completed a fantastic soccer season winning their league, the ERSL Cup and the Province. The team dominated league play, compiling a record of 14-0, with a league high goal differential of 83. A similar story took place in ERSL Cup competition, scoring 24 goals and giving up none in four matches. The road to the Ontario Cup championship, however, proved a tougher task. The team won the tournament round in convincing fashion with 4 wins. In the quarter-finals, the team faced a highlyregarded Whitby squad and managed to come away with a wellearned 3-1 victory. A resilient Eastside Kickers team held the girls to a narrow 1-0 win in the semi-final match. This win set the Ontario Cup Final match between OSU and the Stoney Creek Battalion at the Oshawa Civic Stadium on Saturday. The team had faced the talented Stoney Creek Battalion squad at a tournament earlier in the season and were defeated 3-0. However, the team had gained a lot of experience during the season and had customized their training sessions in preparation for the final. Sporting identical 14-0 records in their individual leagues going into the match, the Championship game ended regulation time in a 1-1 draw, requiring the winner to be decided by penalty kicks. In the end, the Force girls prevailed, winning 3-1 in kicks from the mark. The team became the first Ottawa team to win a girl’s provincial soccer championship in decades. Congratulations to the girls, Alison, Becky, Emily, Jordyn, Kaleigh, Kathleen, Kory, Logan, Marita, Mei Mei, Melissa, Mollie, Nina, Odessa, Shivani, Sydney, Vanessa and our call-up’s Ariel, Carmen and Olivia for an amazing season. Thanks also to our coaches Widdgin, Bernard, Hilary, Pierce and Paul, our trainers Kathy and Wendy, and our managers Jane and Joanne for an unprecedented season for an Ottawa team. OSU President Bill Michalopulos added that this “significant success by the Force 2000’s as well as our Force 97’s boys’ victory over the Toronto FC Academy to win the OYSL league, represents a tangible and measurable step forward for youth soccer in Ottawa. Occurring on OSU’s 10th Year Anniversary as a new club, it’s a testament to the targeted and relentless efforts of OSU to provide the very best for youth soccer development in Canada.”

Presentation about new public high school made to Ottawa Carleton Board Special to the News
News - The case for a new public high school in Stittsville was presented to the Board of Trustees at the Ottawa Carleton District School Board at its meeting on Tuesday, Sept. 17. Presenter Jennifer Guth made the presentation on behalf of concerned Stittsville parents. City of Ottawa Stittsville ward councillor Shad Qadri also made a brief presentation at the meeting, urging establishment of a public high school in Stittsville with its population of 28,000. A preliminary priority list for capital projects for the Ottawa Carleton District School Board, as prepared by staff, lists a new high school in Stittsville as the Boardâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s number six priority. Higher on the list are new elementary schools in the Avalon community in Cumberland, Half Moon Bay in South Nepean and Findlay Creek in south Gloucester. Also higher on this preliminary list are a rebuilding of Broadview Avenue Public School in Ottawa and an addition at West Carleton Secondary School in Dunrobin. A staff report with a list of recommended capital projects is scheduled to go before the trustees in a Committee of the Whole setting on Tuesday, Oct. 1, with a final decision to be made at the Boardâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s meeting on Tuesday, Oct. 22. As for the Ottawa Catholic School Board, staff has provided a report recommending
two capital priorities, namely new elementary schools in South Nepean and in Kanata North. A final decision on these recommended priorities will be made by the Board of Trustees at its meeting on Tuesday, Oct. 22. The Catholic Board has a new elementary school in the Avalon area of Cumberland to be opened in 2015. The two priority projects being submitted this year are for new schools opening in the 2016-2017 school year. In the 2017-2021 time frame, the Ottawa Catholic School Board has on its capital priorities list new elementary schools in the Fernbank lands in Stittsville, in the Kanata West area in Stittsville, in Leitrim and in Riverside South. It also has a new high school in the Half Moon Bay area of South Nepean and also a new high school in the Riverside South area. The Boardâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s capital priority plans for the post-2021 period include a new elementary school in Gloucester, a new high school in the Mer Bleue area and a new high school in the Fernbank area of Stittsville. The proposed site for this high school is on Fernbank Road immediately west of the Walmart shopping area. Currently the Ontario Ministry of Education has asked school boards to provide a business case on Ministry templates for capital priorities that need to be open and operational for the 2016-2017 school year.

Operation 9 RUN RUN happens on Saturday, Oct. 19 Christmas Child Special to the News
News - Operation Christmas Child, a project of Samaritan’s Purse, is back for its 21st season. Operation Christmas Child is a project that is fun and that can involve people of all ages. Shoe boxes are filled with toys and small gifts and then sent to boys and girls in need around the world, sharing with them the love and hope of Christmas. For the Stittsville/Kanata area, the kickoff for this year’s program will be held on Saturday, Oct. 5 from 7 p.m. to 9 p.m. at the Kanata Baptist Church at 465 Hazeldean Road just east of Castlefrank Road in Kanata. Shoe boxes will be available at this event. Last year a total of 662,312 gift filled shoe boxes were collected across Canada last year. The Kanata/Stittsville centre collected 6,000 boxes last year. This year’s goal has been set at over 6,500 boxes. These gift boxes will be distributed in countries in West Africa, Central and South America and Haiti. National Collection Week for these shoe boxes will be the week of Nov. 18 to Nov. 24. Shoe box gifts are distributed in more than 100 countries on six continents. They are given to children suffering from war, poverty, famine, disease and disaster. Operation Christmas Child works with volunteer local pastors, charities and civic leaders in the receiving countries to identify the children of greatest need and to coordinate the distribution. Each gift-filled shoebox should contain a variety of school supplies, toys, hygiene products and a personal note and photo if desired. An age category for a boy or girl to help is provided. Operation Christmas Child is a project of Samaritan’s Purse, an international Christian relief and development organization. The project is meant to be a hands-on way for Canadians to bless others by filling shoe boxes with gifts. Samaritan’s Purse Canada is a nondenominational evangelical Christian organization that has been providing spiritual and physical aid to suffering people around the world since 1970. Samaritan’s Purse and the Billy Graham Evangelistic Association are both under the leadership of Franklin Graham. However, they are separate organizations. Operation Christmas Child is the world’s largest children’s Christmas program. It was founded in 1990 and in 1993 it was adopted by Franklin Graham in his capacity as international president of Samaritan’s Purse.
The annual Tea & Sale hosted by the Ladies Auxiliary of the Richmond branch of the Royal Canadian Legion will take place on Sunday, Oct. 20 from 1 p.m. to 3 p.m. at the Richmond Legion Hall on Ottawa Street in Richmond.
For the half marathon route, participants will head off at 9:15 a.m. from the Abbott Street start line, going east to Stittsville Main Street and then south on Stittsville Main Street to Flewellyn Road at Stanley’s Corners. It is then west on Flewellyn Road to Munster Road. Turning north on Munster Road, participants will go to Fernbank Road and then to Jinkinson Road. Heading north on Jinkinson Road, participants will come to the Trans Canada Trail where they will head east until they reach Abbott Street and the finish line. The BMO Nesbitt Burns 2K-ish Run will still begin at 10 a.m. on the Trans Canada Trail in front of Sacred Heart Catholic High School, with the route heading west for 1K-ish and then turning around and returning to the start line area. This is meant to be a family fun run or walk.
There will still be the post-race Chiefs’ Chili Cook-Off in which the chiefs of the city’s three emergency services will compete for the honour of having prepared the best-tasting chili. And there will be lots of chili for everyone as Scumptious Creative Catering of Stittsville will be on hand with chili. The Rotary Club of Ottawa – Stittsville will be hosting face painting at the event while Deschenes Poitras Family Dental will sponsor Brad the Balloon Guy. Junk Yard Symphony will be on hand to entertain youngsters. Moore Chiropractic is hosting the massage tent which will be set up on the Hudson Insurance property at the corner of Stittsville Main Street and Abbott Street. Stittsville Sobeys will be providing food, water and chocolate milk at the finish line. The McDonalds cof-
fee truck will also be on site. Brown’s Your Independent Grocer of Stittsville is hosting the breakfast for the volunteers involved. Sculpt Conditioning of Stittsville is providing spinning bikes so that runners can get ride of their lactic acid after the run. This annual 9 RUN RUN Emergency Services Run is supported by the Ottawa Police Service, the Ottawa Fire Service and the Ottawa Paramedic Service. This year’s 10K Run is already sold out for participants. Information about this year’s 9 RUN Run event is available at http:// www.9runrun.ca/. Last year’s event raised $40,911.12 for Do It For Daron (D.I.F.D.), a youth driven program focused on raising awareness about youth mental health, and the Royal’s Youth Mental Health Program.

MARY COOK Scratch proved her worth as a house cat Mary Cookâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Memories

As far as Mother was concerned, there were no â&#x20AC;&#x153;ifs, ands, or butsâ&#x20AC;? about it when it came to having pets in the house. They belonged in the barn, and thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s all there was to it. The barn cats had litters, it seemed to me back then, every time the weather changed and every time a new batch of kittens came on the scene, I begged Mother to let me keep at least one in the house for a pet. â&#x20AC;&#x153;No cats in the house,â&#x20AC;? she would say each time I asked. So I would have to play with them in the barns, where they were allowed to wander freely, some in the cow byre, some in the stable and often one or two in where Father kept the sheep. I would make sure they all had fresh milk every day and, of course, I gave them all names. They came in all colours, but mostly they were grey or black with white spots. One batch produced one that was golden brown with white around its neck and a pure white tail. To me it was the most beautiful kitten I had ever seen. But it didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t look like its mother had much love for it. To me it always seemed to be pushed aside, away from the other kittens. Neglected, it got thinner and thinner. Emerson said it wasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t long for this world and the best thing that could happen to it was to put it in a grain sack and take to the Bonnechere River. Needless to say that sent me into ďŹ ts of crying and I begged Mother to let me keep it in the house until it had grown a bit. Finally, Mother relented. It would have to be kept in a box at
night. I would have to take it outside to â&#x20AC;&#x153;do its businessâ&#x20AC;? and it would only be in the house until it was able to fend for itself out in the barn. I called it Scratch because it loved to scratch on the side of the cardboard box which was its home through the night. It grew and ďŹ&#x201A;ourished and every day Mother would warn me that soon it would have to join the other cats in the barn. The litter was born early in the fall and as the nights got colder I was eternally grateful that Scratch was in a warm spot to sleep. Just before I went to bed every night I took Scratch outside and then put her into the cardboard box. Then one morning, even before I was out of bed, I heard Mother let a scream out of her that I was sure could be heard across the Twenty Acre Field. I tore downstairs, not knowing what to expect and there was Scratch sound asleep outside the box and beside her, half mutilated, were two very dead mice. Now, if there was anything Mother hated more than the common house ďŹ&#x201A;y or pet animals in the house, it was a mouse! She was sure they carried germs. It wasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t so much that she was afraid of them, it was just that she thought they were the dirtiest critters on earth. There was little hope of keeping them out of the house, in spite of the countless traps spaced around the ďŹ&#x201A;oor. Well, it was obvious how the mice had come to meet their maker. Scratch had done them in -- that was obvious. Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s what changed Motherâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s mind about having a pet in the house. R0012324098

Cupcakes Using an electric hand mixer, beat the butter with all but 1 tbsp (15 mL) of the brown sugar until fluffy. Add the egg yolks, vanilla and almond extract and beat again. Stir in the carrots and set aside. In a large bowl, sift together the flour, cocoa powder, cinnamon, baking soda, baking powder and nutmeg. Fold into the butter mixture, alternate with buttermilk, making three additions of flour mixture and two of buttermilk. Fold in the chocolate chips. In a separate bowl, beat the egg whites until they’re frothy. Beat in the remaining 15 ml (1 tbsp) of brown sugar until stiff. Gently fold into the batter until just blended.

Icing: In a bowl, beat together the butter, icing sugar and cocoa powder for about one minute or until fluffy and smooth. Beat in the buttermilk and vanilla until smooth. Spread the icing over the cooled cupcakes. Decoration: Knead the marzipan to soften. Tint it with food colouring by combining one part red food colouring to two parts yellow to make orange. Form into 12 small carrot shapes. Roll edge of small knife around each carrot, making light indentations. Make small hole in top of each carrot with a toothpick and press fresh carrot greens (the leafy part) into the hole.

Alpha course to begin with free dinner Oct. 2 Special to the News
News - The Alpha course, which has been taken by over nine million people around the world, is going to be offered in Stittsville. And while the Alpha course is designed for everyone, from those with no faith to those wanting to learn more about their faith, you may wonder whether it is something that you would enjoy or not. That’s why there’s going to be an introductory evening offered, after which you can decide to sign up for the ten week course or not. This introduction to Alpha along with a free dinner will take place on Wednesday, Oct. 2 at St. Thomas Anglican Church at the corner of Stittsville Main Street and Carleton Cathcart Street in Stittsville. The introduction to Alpha will explore the topic “Is Christianity Boring, Untrue, and Irrelevant???” At the end of this introductory evening, people who choose to do so will have the opportunity to sign up for the ten week course which begins the following Wednesday, Oct. 9. It must be noted that there is no cost to take the Alpha course. However, participants are invited to make a small contribution towards the meal which is held at the beginning of every session in the course. The Alpha course is meant to provide a relaxed and friendly setting in which to explore the meaning of life and other similarly important questions. And while it is meant to be a practical introduction to the basics of Christianity with lots of opportunity for discussion and
debate, Alpha is a course designed for everyone – from non-Christians curious about whether there is a God to people who may attend church but who have never really felt that they understood the basics of their faith to those who are interested in learning more about their faith. It is a course for people from all backgrounds, religions and viewpoints. Alpha takes place one evening a week for ten weeks, including a Friday evening and a Saturday halfway through the course. Each session begins with a meal which is a good opportunity for participants to get to know each other. After the dinner, there is always a talk on such topics as “Who Is Jesus?”, “How Does God Guide Us?” and “Does Jesus Still Heal Today?’ The talk is followed by small group discussions where issues raised in the talk can be explored in an atmosphere where everyone’s opinion is heard and welcomed. Comments and questions are encouraged. And what’s the result for those who have completed the ten week course? Some comments that have been recorded are “I was astonished at how much I enjoyed myself,” “I really appreciated the opportunity to ask questions and not feel like I was getting a hard-sell pitched at me,” and “When I first went to Alpha I was pretty nervous…by the third Alpha evening, I could hardly wait until the next week.” To find out more about this Alpha course coming up in Stittsville or to reserve a place at the introductory dinner on Wednesday, Oct. 2, please call 613-836-5741.

God saw you getting tired And a cure was not to be, So He put His arms around you and whispered, â&#x20AC;&#x153;Come to me.â&#x20AC;? With tearful eyes we watched you suffer and saw you fade away, Although we loved you dearly, we could not make you stay But loving memories never die As years roll on and days go by

John Shouldice Memorial Tournament raises $9,300 John Curry
john.curry@metroland.com
News - Thursday, Sept. 19 was a sunny, warm day, ideal for golfing. And so it was a glorious day for those who took part in the third annual John Shouldice Memorial Golf Tournament at the Canadian Golf and Country Club west of Stittsville. But what was really glorious that day, even more spectacular than the weather, was the $9,300 which was raised and presented to help a family whose child has been struck with a life threatening cancer. It doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t get any better than this! It was Sharon Shouldice, wife of the late John Shouldice of Stittsville in whose memory and honour the tournament is held, who, joined by Shouldice family members, handed over at the conclusion of the tournamentâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s windup dinner a giant cheque representing the $9,300 raised by the tournament to help the Zavitske family of Dunrobin whose six year old daughter Bridget Rose has been bat-
tling cancer. It all began for the Zavitske family last June when Bridget was diagnosed with Wilms Tumor (kidney cancer) at CHEO where it was also discovered that the cancer had spread to her lung and lymph nodes. Bridget had had blood in her urine but nothing was diagnosed at the time. But at home, while she was getting dressed, it was noticed that she had a lump in her side. This led to her eventual diagnosis and surgery which removed what turned out to be a tumor on her kidney. But unfortunately the cancer had by then spread to her lung and lymph nodes and so Bridget then underwent radiation and chemotherapy treatments. She is still travelling to CHEO once a week for treatment. Meanwhile, her mother Christy has taken time off work to be at home with Bridget who is in grade one but who cannot currently attend school because of her low immune system brought about by her treatments. She would be just too susceptible to ill-
ness if she attended school at this time. Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s why the tournamentâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s fundraising and other fundraising has been so important, because it helps the Zavitske family meet expenses with mother Christy off work. The family also has two other children, seven year old Stella and three year old Miller. The firefighters at Station 81 in Stittsville have helped in fundraising for Bridget, directing proceeds from the Villagefest pancake breakfast which was held at the Station 81 fire hall on Stittsville Main Street on Saturday, Sept. 7 to the Zavitske family. In addition, firefighters at Station 66 in Dunrobin in West Carleton held a â&#x20AC;&#x153;Buzz for Bridget Dayâ&#x20AC;? fundraiser involving both head shaving and a car wash. And the family really appreciates all of this fundraising on their behalf. It was Bridget herself who expressed this appreciation when the $9,300 from this John Shouldice Me-
morial Golf Tournament was handed over to the family on Thursday, Sept. 19. Taking the microphone, she said simply: â&#x20AC;&#x153;Thank you for getting a lot of money for us.â&#x20AC;? And while Bridget now only visits CHEO on a weekly basis and is not there as an in-patient, the family is full of praise for the way in which Bridget was treated and continues to be treated by CHEO staff. Indeed, when she was able to be discharged and return home, she did not want to leave â&#x20AC;&#x201C; she liked it so much. And this was after she had undergone surgery and cancer treatments there but she still loved the place, a real testament to the staff and how it treats the young patients there. And the family has also appreciated the presence of Ronald McDonald House where the family was able to stay while Bridget was in the hospital. Orange wrist bracelets stamped with the phase â&#x20AC;&#x153;For the LOVE of Bridget Roseâ&#x20AC;? were handed out at the tournament. Orange is the colour
associated with kidney cancer. At the tournamentâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s windup dinner where the $9,300 giant cheque was presented, Bridget got to meet and spend time with Alyssa Shouldice, another youngster who has battled cancer. Indeed, Alyssa was the recipient of the funds raised by the first John Shouldice Memorial Golf Tournament in 2011. Last year the funds raised by the second annual John Shouldice Memorial Golf Tournament were given to the Jude family of Stittsville whose son Bryce was battling a rare form of cancer. Sadly Bryce died just days before the tournament but the $8,500 raised went to help the family deal with the huge expenditures which it had accumulated in seeking treatment and care for Bryce. John Shouldice, in whose memory and honour the tournament is held, was a long time resident of the Stittsville community who was involved in many sports and charitable activities. John Shouldice himself died from cancer in June 2002.

City, MVCA want more current data John Curry
john.curry@metroland.com
News - The Stittsville Village Association (SVA) has sent a letter to the city of Ottawa’s planning department regarding issues related to the proposed development of a 6.8 hectare site in southwest Stittsville. The development proposal includes 59 lots for single detached dwellings and 81 street townhouse units. Vehicle access is proposed to be via Elm Crescent. The SVA has identified issues such as potential flooding due to the current wet nature of the land and the proposal for only one access road to the area off Elm Crescent. David Jenkins, the SVA director who leads on planning issues, predicted that the approval process for this proposed development “is going to be a long and messy process” due to the concerns of adjacent residents. City of Ottawa Stittsville ward councillor Shad Qadri, who was in attendance at the last SVA executive meeting at which this issue was discussed, cited concerns as identified by residents in the surrounding area. One is the proposal for only one access to the site off Elm Crescent. He said that there could be other possible accesses such as off Fernbank Road at Etta Street or via Porter Street. He said that discussions are still going on involving city planning staff regarding access to
the site. Councillor Qadri said that the studies on which the development proposal is based are at least six years old. He said that the city wants more current information provided by the proponent. Those in the surrounding committee feel that there is too much density proposed for the development area. Councillor Qadri said that the city is still gathering comments on this aspect of the proposal. Councillor Qadri said that the Mississippi Valley Conservation Authority (MVCA) has concerns about the proposed development, wanting to ensure that there is no runoff issue caused in the area by the proposed development. SVA chair Phil Sweetnam commented that the proponent will have to show that there is no impact on other property owners in the area if this development were to go ahead. He said that there will be a lot of work for engineers on this project before it gets off the ground, saying that the Conservation Authority wants more current data provided. Councillor Qadri said that the proponent will have to address the concerns expressed by residents of the surrounding area before any draft plan of subdivision is approved by the city. He also said that there will be a public meeting hosted by the city about the proposal some time in the future.
