EMC news - Villagefest is here. The annual celebration of fall is happening in Stittsville this Saturday, Sept. 29. Things get underway with a Villagefest pancake breakfast which Stittsville’s firefighters are hosting at the fire hall on Stittsville Main Street adjacent to the Stittsville branch of the Ottawa Public library. It’s a great way for families and others to kick off Villagefest Saturday. This Villagefest pancake breakfast will run from 7:30 a.m. to 10:30 a.m. with everyone welcome. After this pancake breakfast, the Villagefest scene will shift to Village Square Park at the corner of Stittsville Main Street and Abbott Street which will be the scene of most of the Villagefest activities. But before you head to Village Square, you might want to drop by St. Andrew’s Presbyterian Church at the corner of Stittsville Main Street and Mulkins Street where a gigantic yard sale is being held in conjunction with the Villagefest activities. This yard sale on the church grounds will run from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. In addition, you will be able to enjoy a mug ‘o’ chili and beverages at the event. And if you do not have your fill of yard sales, there will be another one right at Village Square Park held by the Goulbourn Jubilee Singers. At Village Square Park, the Villagefest activities will begin at 12 noon, running through to 5 p.m. There will be horse-drawn carriage rides, children’s games and musical entertainment from groups such as the Goulbourn Jubilee Singers, singers Joel and Kyle Curry and Jon Whittington, among others.

Doug George has his Tesla Roadster plugged in at the National Plug-in Day event which was held at the electric vehicle charging stations at the rear of the new ice pad at the Goulbourn Recreation Complex in Stittsville last Sunday afternoon, Sept. 23.
National Plug-in Day at GRC John Curry
john.curry@metroland.com
EMC news - Electricity was in the air outside the Goulbourn Recreation Complex in Stittsville last Sunday afternoon, Sept. 23. Well, the electricity itself was not actually in the air but there was lots of electric talk going around as owners of electric-powered vehicles assembled at the rear of the GRC’s new ice pad structure to mark the second annual National Plug-in Day which happens in both Canada and the United States. Electricity, though, was very much in the electric vehicle plug-ins that are located at the rear of the GRC as owners plugged their electric and hybrid vehicles in to these electrical sources in the 4 p.m. hour-long vehicle meet-up. The vehicles taking part in this National Plug-in Day celebration included a Tesla Roadster, the first electric vehicle registered in Ontario as evidenced by the numerical designation (AA 001) on its special green-lettered license plate that begins with the letters GV for green vehicle. These license plates are reserved solely for electric powered vehicles.
This Tesla is owned by Doug George who is now considering getting an electric-powered Tesla sedan to complement his roaster. He became a Tesla Roadster owner and the first such one in Ontario as a result of a business trip that he was on to California. While there, he decided to visit the nearby Tesla Motors factory. He ended up test driving the vehicle and then buying one when he came back home. Tesla Motors is a California based company that designs, manufactures and sells electric cars. The Tesla Roadster, which is the first full electric sports car, uses lithium-ion battery cells and is the first production electric vehicle with a range greater than 320 kilometers per charge. The firm is named after famed electrical engineer and physicist Nikola Tesla. Ricardo Borba has a green-lettered license plate on his Nissan Leaf all-electric vehicle. His bears the number 654. He was marking his first year anniversary with the vehicle on Sunday. In his first year of ownership and use, he chalked up 21,600 kilometers in travel. He readily admits that vehicles like his
are not made for long trips since there is a lack of charging infrastructure in the city and province. He notes that these charging stations which were included in construction of the new ice pad at the GRC are the first ones installed by the city of Ottawa. Future newly-built facilities will also include the installation of such charging stations. Besides these charging stations at the GRC, there are only two other publiclyavailable charging station locations in Ottawa, one at Algonquin College and one in Orleans. Most electric vehicle owners charge their vehicles at home, although some have charging accessibility at work. Mr. Borba says that electric vehicles today are ideal for two-vehicle families. The electric vehicle can be used for short trips around town while the second vehicle, either a hybrid or traditional gas powered vehicle, can be used for longer trips. Mr. Borba estimates that he saved over $2,000 on the operation of his electric vehicle in the past year which amounts to five percent of the $40,000 cost price. See ELECTRIC, page 3

Electric vehicles plugged in at GRC in Stittsville Continued from page 1
These savings accrue from using no gas, almost no maintenance costs and lower insurance. He acknowledges that an electric vehicle costs more than a gas powered one because of the batteries involved and the vehicle’s other required technology. There is, though, an $8,500 rebate available from the province for purchase of an all-electric vehicle. One of the vehicles on display at this National Plug-in Day event at the GRC was a pickup truck that has been converted to be an electric vehicle. Because it is a conversion and not a new electric vehicle, its owner, Allan Poulsen, cannot get one of those special license plates identifying it as a green vehicle. But this makes no real difference to Mr. Poulsen who wants an electric vehicle so that he can make a difference and help the world get off its dependence on fossil fuels. He recently installed a new lithium battery pack, replacing an earlier traditional battery pack that weighed 1600 pounds. The new pack weighs only 600 pounds and takes up only about half of the truck’s rear cargo area. The new pack now gives him 90 kilometers on a charge, more than double the previous 40 kilometer range that he enjoyed. He could have purchased a new electric vehicle but felt that it was better just to upgrade his battery pack and continue driving his well-used pickup truck. Mr. Poulsen shows off the small electric motor which has taken the place of a gas engine under the hood, explaining how the vehicle operates. “It’s golf cart technology
on a larger scale,” he says. “It’s not rocket science.” National Plug-in Day is organized by the Electric Auto Association (EAA) in both Canada and the United States.
The Electric Vehicle Council of Ottawa (EVCO), which is affiliated with EAA, has been an advocate for environmentally-friendly electric transportation since 1979.
Electric vehicles, both full electric plug-in vehicles and hybrids, are expected to make up as much of 20 percent of new vehicle sales in Ontario by the year 2020. More charg-
ing infrastructure is key to facilitating this. Advantages of electric vehicle ownership and use include lower fuel prices, namely the equivalent of paying about 75
cents per gallon gas; virtually non-existent maintenance and repairs; cleaner operation, meaning less pollution; and freedom from dependence on oil as a fuel.

Semi-annual free well water sample blitz Special to the News
EMC news - It’s just a couple of weeks now until the semi-annual free well water sample blitz takes place in Goulbourn. This is where homeowners with wells can drop off a sample of well water and it will be sent for testing, with the results returned to the homeowner in a matter of days.. The best way to ensure that a well water supply is safe to
drink is by testing it regularly. Bacterial contamination can cause sickness and in some cases even death, so having the well water tested regularly is key to safe drinking water from a well. There will be a well water sample drop-off on Monday, Oct. 15 from 8 a.m. to noon at the Goulbourn Town Hall (former Goulbourn Municipal Building) at 2135 Huntley Road at
Stanley’s Corners just south of Stittsville. As is tradition, there will also be well water sample drop-offs in Richmond, Ashton and Munster as well, although these will not take place until Monday, Oct. 29. The drop-off in Richmond will be on Monday, Oct. 29 from 3 p.m. to 8 p.m. at the Richmond Memorial Community Centre (arena) at the corner of Perth Street and Huntley Road in
Richmond. The drop-off in Ashton will be on the same day, Monday, Oct. 29, lasting from 5:30 a.m. right through to 6 p.m. at the Ashton General Store in Ashton. In Munster, the drop-off location will be Mac’s at the corner of Munster Road and Bleeks Road in the heart of the community. Hours for this drop-off will be 6:30 a.m. to 6 p.m.

Richmond Legion gives $1,100 Special to the News
EMC news - The Richmond Branch 625 of the Royal Canadian Legion has helped out Friends of Hospice Ottawa. The Legion’s president Brian Goss along with poppy chair Jane Louks presented Ruth Cameron, director of event planning and financial management with Friends of
Hospice Ottawa, with a donation of $1,100 at the Richmond Legion Hall on Thursday evening, Sept. 20. The funds will go to help with the operation of the day hospice which Friends of Hospice Ottawa, in partnership with St. John’s Anglican Church, holds each week at the Anglican Church hall on
Fowler Street in Richmond. With the donation, a number of extra activities will be possible at the day hospice which would not happen if it were not for this financial support from the Richmond Legion. The Richmond Legion has made donations to Friends of Hospice Ottawa for the past eight years.

11 Critical Home Inspection Traps to be Aware of Weeks Before Listing Your Home for Sale
Ottawa & Area - According to industry experts, there are over 33 physical problems that will come under scrutiny during a home inspection when your home is for sale. A new report has been prepared which identifies the eleven most common of these problems, and what you should know about them before you list your home for sale. Whether you own an old home or a brand new one, there are a number of things that can fall short of requirements during a home inspection. If not identified and dealt with, any of these 11 items could cost you dearly in terms of repair. That's why it's critical that you read this report before you list your home. If you wait until the building inspector flags these issues for you, you will almost certainly experience costly delays in the close of your home sale or, worse, turn prospective buyers away
altogether. In most cases, you can make a reasonable pre-inspection yourself if you know what you're looking for, and knowing what you're looking for can help you prevent little problems from growing into costly and unmanageable ones. To help homesellers deal with this issue before their homes are listed, a free report entitled "11 Things You Need to Know to Pass Your Home Inspection" has been compiled which explains the issues involved. To order a FREE Special Report, visit www.OttawaFreeHomeInfo.com or to hear a brief recorded message about how to order your FREE copy of this report call toll-free 1-800-217-1897 7003. and enter 1003 . You can call any time, 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. Get your free special report NOW to learn how to ensure a home inspection doesn't cost you the sale of your home.

Can you help out The Sow Good Sale? Special to the News
EMC news - The Community Bible Church in Stittsville is continuing to help the community of Seje in Kenya. Several church events have already helped raise both awareness of and funds for this African community and a second annual The Sow Good Sale coming up at the church on Saturday, Nov. 17 will be yet another event in this ongoing, long term commitment and initiative. Part of this year’s The Sow Good Sale will include the sale of used jewelry, books, CDs and DVDs and the church is looking for members of the Stittsville community for help in this. Donations of jewelry, books, CDs and DVDs in good condition will be accepted by the church until the end of October. You not only get to dispose of these used items but your donations will help generate funds that will go to help those in the community of Seje in Kenya. It’s a win-win situation! However, please note that textbooks, magazines and VHS tapes are a no-no – they will not be accepted. Donations can be dropped off at the Community Bible Church at 1600 Stittsville Main Street. Those planning to donate should call ahead to 613-836-2606 to ensure that someone is at the church to accept your donation. This is a great way for you to be part of helping out those in the community of Seje in Africa while disposing of that jewelry, books, CDs and DVDs that right now are just taking up space in your home or car and you are no longer using. One person’s junk is
another person’s treasure. Let your items become the treasure of someone else at this upcoming The Sow Good Sale with the added benefit that the proceeds will be going to help a community in Africa. The ongoing partnership between the Community Bible Church and the community of Seje in Kenya has seen a number of fundraising and awareness-raising events already held at the church. Thanks to the great support for last year’s initial The Sow Good Sale, the first permanent school structure in Seje is now fully funded with construction underway. Through the generosity of local supporters, more than 50 four and five year olds in Seje, mainly orphans, have been sponsored and since January have been attending school in a church until the school facility is completed. They are also benefitting from regular nutrition. More children still need to be sponsored. It costs $40 a month to sponsor a child in Seje, providing them with school, nutrition and opportunities which they would not otherwise have. Such child sponsorship qualifies for charitable tax receipts. Anyone interested in sponsoring a child in Seje should contact the Community Bible Church at 613-836-2606. Additional funds for educational support in Seje were raised at last March’s “Quiz for a Cause” at the Community Bible Church. Last June’s “Walk for Water” event hosted by the Community Bible Church in Stittsville raised some of the funds required to provide safe clean drinking water for 100 people
in Seje. Funding from all of these events has helped improve the daily lives of many in Seje in Kenya. This partnership between the Community Bible Church in Stittsville and the community of Seje in Kenya in Africa came about in 2010 when the Community Bible Church learned about a “You Feed Them” initiative undertaken by the Trinity Bible Church in Osgoode. In this initiative, the Osgoode church partnered with the village of Yogo in Kenya to help improve crop yields there as well as help in other ways. The Community Bible Church congregation was so inspired by this outreach by the Osgoode church that it ended up partnering with Seje, a village near Yogo. Pastor Steve Stewart and several members of the congregation visited Seje to meet the community elders and villagers there and to learn about their needs, desires and dreams. This led to the partnership between the Community Bible Church and Seje in April 2011. This partnership is a long term initiative in which the Community Bible Church is working with Seje community leaders to help them transform Seje into a self-sustaining and healthy community. The Seje community has contributed funds towards the new local school, has cleared land for community facilities and has dug trenches for installation of a water pipeline. While the Community Bible Church is providing much-needed help, especially funding, the community of Seje is also dedicated to helping itself with help from this Stittsville church.

‘Neither rain nor...’ applies to derby Special to the News
EMC news - Neither rain nor snow nor sleet nor hail…so goes one version of the unofficial motto of the United States Postal Service. Well, such a motto might also apply to the annual demolition derby at the Richmond Fair. Despite heavy rains on Friday night, Sept. 14, the demolition derby at this year’s Richmond Fair attracted a field
of 50 cars and proved to be a popular attraction for fair-goers, even though attendance at the gate overall was down considerably due to the rainy weather. Four cylinder, six cylinder and eight cylinder vehicle classes all were held, with three heats and a final in the four cylinder class, two heats and the final in the six cylinder class and two heats and the final in the eight cylinder class.
Hall Stewart won the four cylinder class final, with Michel Hotte as the runner-up. In the six cylinder class final, “Super Dave” emerged as the winner, with Gaetan Faubert placing second. Tyler Baskin won the eight cylinder class final, with David Gravelle second. The Kerry Argue Memorial Award winner for best painted vehicle in the derby went to Amanda Holloway.
Largest sheep show in Eastern Ontario Special to the News
Cheviots at the fair, taking the grand champion ewe, grand champion ram, reserve champion ewe and reserve champion ram titles. Curtis Driscoll of Elora won the grand champion ewe and grand champion ram ribbons in the class for other breeds than the six breeds with their own classes. Sheep were just one of the animals on display in the livestock shows at this year’s Richmond Fair which also featured dairy and cattle shows, heavy, light and western horse shows and a miniature horse show. In the heavy horse show, the entries of Stewart and Brian Crabb of Stittsville chalked up several wins. This included the champion Belgian mare, champion Belgian stallion, registered open team, open draft spike, and six horse hitch. John Newell of Richmond took first place in the open draft four horse hitch, triumphing over nine other entries. He also placed third in the six horse hitch class which attracted a total of nine entries and had a third place finish in the open draft spike class. This year’s miniature horse show attracted 12 different exhibitors. Jordan Alma of Munster

I am encouraging residents to please help and keep Stittsville clean and free of debris. In many areas of the community, especially in new subdivisions, some residents are dumping their yard waste and garbage on other residents’ garbage, City property, roadway areas and dead streets. By doing this, these few residents are making the rest of the community suffer with the eyesore of this dumping. If you witness dumping taking place please let me know and also contact the City of Ottawa at 3-1-1 and 311@ottawa.ca . Please be considerate of our community.

In preparation for winter operations, the City of Ottawa has begun training drivers in the operation of snow clearing equipment. Ottawa’s roads are busy with pedestrians, cyclists, parked and moving vehicles, as well as infrastructure such as Pay and Display parking machines, on-street furniture, benches, etc. Winter equipment driver training starts in the classroom and concludes with on-street practical experience. On-street training will begin September 24 and will run until early December. All winter operations equipment used for training will display driver training signs on the rear and both sides of the vehicle. Did you know? Last train from Stittsville
On September 16th 1870, the first steam train passed through Stittsville. It traveled along a newly completed railway line that connected Brockville and Ottawa. The massive locomotive, named the “H. H. Abbott,” was built of shining steel with brass and red painted trim. It was decorated for the occasion with Union Jack flags and red, white, and blue ribbons. Trains remained Stittsville’s principle means of out-of-town travel and transport until automobiles became popular in the 1950’s. The Stittsville Station was demolished in 1969, but trains continued to pass through the village until 1990. On January 14th 1990, the last train left Stittsville. It was a Via Rail passenger train called ‘The Canadian,’ which was on its way to British Columbia. Always listening and acting on your concerns

Meeting Ottawaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s infrastructure challenge
F
ollowing the presentation of a report on the state of the cityâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s infrastructure last week to the cityâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s finance committee, it has become clear Ottawa has an infrastructure problem. The potential consequences of this problem were brought sharply into focus recently when a portion of highway 174 was closed by a sinkhole. While the extent of Ottawaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s problem is not so acute as the east-end sinkhole, the
report indicates that without a significant infusion of cash to increase maintenance activity, the city runs the risk, in the long run, of seeing things like sinkholes, broken water mains and collapsed roofs popping up like dandelions from Carp to Carlington to Cumberland. We cannot afford to let this happen. Just ask anyone who had to sit in traffic on Montreal Road or Barrhaven residents who saw watering restrictions imposed in 2011 following the
Woodroffe Avenue water main break how much fun it is to have critical infrastructure fail. Yet despite a two-per-cent infrastructure levy that was imposed from 2008 to 2010, more than $400 million in federal and provincial stimulus cash and the $340million Ottawa on the Move program, the city is only able to scrape by when it comes to maintaining things like roads, recreation facilities, libraries and other civic buildings. This means the city needs
to find $165 million per year, up from the $80 million itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s currently spending, to maintain what it already has and even more once new infrastructure is added by 2022. As Mayor Jim Watson said following the presentation of the report to council, there are several ways this maintenance can be paid for: adding debt, increasing taxes or seeking funding from other levels of government. Looking to other levels of government, at least in the
short term, appears to be a non-starter â&#x20AC;&#x201C; the province is looking to spend less money, not more, and the federal government is poised to slash thousands of civil service jobs in Ottawa to get its own fiscal house in order. Borrowing money to pay for what are permanent, ongoing needs is a dubious course of action. The need to maintain infrastructure isnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t going to stop anytime soon, so why mortgage the future to pay for it?
That leaves us with finding additional money to pay for this vital, necessary work. This can be done in two ways. The city can raise taxes or money can be cut from other areas of the city budget. Things like upcoming capital projects can be put on hold or cancelled, city staff can be cut or services can be reduced or eliminated to shift money to pay for these needs. Either tax hikes or spending cuts will bite taxpayers in the end, but such decisions are the burden of leadership. How council handles these choices will have far-reaching implications for this city â&#x20AC;&#x201C; letâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s hope it chooses wisely.
COLUMN
Oh no, not more about 1972! ers can now play with passion and creativity because they have been freed from the yoke of Communist oppression. But more likely the difference is in the way we perceive things. Heaven help us that we should be drawing deep philosophical conclusions from hockey anniversaries, but if there is a conclusion to be drawn it is that the world and Canada have changed a lot in 40 years. That may be difficult to fathom for those who feel like it only happened yesterday, but itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s true. To begin with, 40 years ago there were no Russians in the NHL, in fact hardly anyone who wasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t Canadian. Forty years ago, we feared the Russians in a way we do not now. The Cold War was at its height. The Soviet Union was a closed society. The hotel rooms were lousy and could have been bugged. The Russians didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t trust us all that much either, although our hotel rooms were better. Everything isnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t wonderful now, but the Cold War is over, the Russian hotel rooms are better and probably not bugged. There is no Soviet Union and there is dissent in Russia - to what avail no one is quite sure. Players from all over what used to be the Soviet bloc are performing, creatively and with passion, in the NHL, or will be, when the NHL begins. Is any of that because we â&#x20AC;&#x153;wonâ&#x20AC;? the 1972 series? Maybe. Or maybe itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s because we almost lost it and realized there was something to be learned from the way the Russians played. And they learned that there was something to be learned from the way we played. As for Canadian fans, did we learn anything? Did we learn that it was a little excessive to be as excessive as we were in cheering our boys on? Probably not. Think of the waves of patriotism that swept over Sidney Crosby when he scored the game-winning goal against the United States at Vancouver 38 years later. We are still going to get worked up over hockey. Whether we get too worked up is another question. Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll get another chance to think about it when the 50th anniversary of all this rolls around in 10 years. You can hardly wait, right?
CHARLES GORDON Funny Town
I
f it werenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t for the hockey lockout the anniversary of the 1972 Canada-Russia series would not have received so much attention. Whatever the reason, the attention goes on and on and on and it may be that anyone who wasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t around in 1972 - a good chunk of the population - might have seen more than enough of it. The good news for them is that it should all be over soon. September 28 marks the 40-year anniversary of Hendersonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s goal in the final game. Mind you, there is still the 40-year anniversary of the plane ride home, the 40-year anniversary of the teamâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s welcome in Toronto, and there could be many others. Still, for all intents and purposes itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s over. Not that it hasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t been interesting, especially to look at the lessons we think weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve learned from those moments in time 40 years ago. There was a lot of jingoism in Canadiansâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; attitude toward the series. Along with our love for our team went a certain amount of hatred for the Russians. That seems, if not embarrassing, at least quaint when looked at today. We were willing to tolerate some thuggish behaviour by our team, not to mention the officials, if it was necessary to win the series. There were also judgments made about the way the then-Soviets played hockey. They were emotionless robots, uncreative, unable to play with passion, it was said, despite the incredibly high level at which they played. We wince at that today, with so many Russian players playing so well on â&#x20AC;&#x153;ourâ&#x20AC;? teams in the National Hockey League. Perhaps you can argue that Russian play-

New officers to lead Stittsville Lionettes John Curry john.curry@metroland.com
EMC news - The Stittsville Lionettes roared at the Lions Hall in Stittsville last Friday evening, Sept. 21. It was the Lionettes’ annual installation of officers for this ladies’ group which for 38 years now has worked to support the work of the Stittsville District Lions Club. Vicki Potter was installed as the Lionettes’ president for the coming
year, moving up from being first vice-president in the past year. In her remarks at the installation, president Potter predicted that the coming year would be a fun but busy one for the Lionettes, especially since it will be hosting the area’s annual Lionettes rally this coming April. Debbie Carson, who has completed the past year as the Lionettes’ president, will continue on as the Lionettes’ secretary for the coming year.
Other officers who were installed were June Warner as vice-president, Georgette St. John as treasurer and Claire Redtman as penalty officer. Stittsville Lion Don Carson served as the installing officer. A special moment occurred at the event when outgoing president Debbie Carson presented flowers of appreciation to the Lionettes’ three continuing charter members – Lynn Martin, Georgette St. John and Diane Davidson. In presenting the floral gifts, Ms.
Carson thanked the three charter members for being part of the group which 38 years ago had the foresight to create the Stittsville Lionettes, resulting in its years of service to the Lions Club and to the community in general. The outgoing president also thanked all of the Lionettes for their support over the past year before presenting the gavel to the incoming president Vicki Potter. The incoming president in turn presented a gift of appreciation to
Debbie Carson for her work as the Lionettes’ president over the past year. The Stittsville Lionettes continue as one of six Lionettes clubs in this area. At one time there were 12 such clubs but the number had decreased to six at present. A Lionettes club exists primarily to support a Lions Club and its members in their work and initiatives. Lionette members usually have some connection to members or former members of the local Lions Club.

EMC news - There was cranberry coffee cake with pecans. Carrot cake with cream cheese icing. Chocolate chip coffee cake. And what about peach upside down cake. And over there there’s a spice cake. And don’t forget about a good old chocolate cake. It was cake heaven at the Stittsville Villa Retirement Community (now the Stittsville Seniors Community by Revera) on Stittsville Main Street last Friday. And this heavenly experience also included lots of cupcakes –chocolate ones, vanilla ones with frosting and a whole giant box filled with ones with little flags on them. It was all done to mark World Alzheimer’s Day, Sept. 21, and to raise funds for the Alzheimer’s Society. And that’s just what happened. The cakes were sold for $10, although more was certainly accepted. The cupcakes went for $10 altogether or 50 cents each. And a basket in the middle of the cake table was there for the collection of donations. When it was all said and done, this cake sale raised a total of $1,456.01 for the local chapter of the Alzheimer’s Society. The cakes had been baked by Stittsville Villa Retirement Community staff as well as family members of residents and others. The cake sale, formally called the first annual Sweet memories Cake Sale for Alzheimers, was the brainchild of the Stittsville Villa Retirement Community’s executive director Lisa Cowan who enlisted the support of other staff members and volunteers to hold the event. Signs promoting the event were placed around the Stittsville community and a giant sign set up beside Stittsville Main Street beckoned visitors into the sale. It was part of a Revera company-wide event called Celebrating Memories, part of the Revera Giving – Community in Action program. There were about 25 cakes plus several boxes of cupcakes on sale on a long table set up in the Villa’s meeting room adjacent to the main lounge area. See SALE, page 11

Jessie Delahunt, a resident at the Stittsville Villa Seniorsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; Community on Stittsville Main Street in Stittsville, holds a cake which she purchased at the Sweet Memories Cake Sale for Alzheimerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s last Friday, Sept. 21.
mentia is progressive which means that the symptoms will gradually get worse. Alzheimerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s disease is the most common cause of dementia. Other causes include vascular disease, dementia with Lewy bodies and frontotemporal dementia. There are currently estimated to be more than 36 million people worldwide living with dementia. It is expected that the number of people affected will rise to over 115 million by the year 2050.

Groups of balloons floated together at each end of the table while potted African violets sat among the cakes, adding more colour to what was already a colourful setting thanks to the icing on the cakes and cupcakes. Executive director Lisa Cowan says that the cake sale was fun for both the staff and residents and suggested that the next similar fundraising activity might be a pie sale, perhaps at the Villaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s upcoming Christmas bazaar and craft sale on Saturday, Nov. 10. The first World Alzheimerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Day was held on Sept. 21, 1994. This year September became World Alzheimerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Month which will continue as an annual happening. Having such a globally coordinated awareness Month and also Day is meant to send a strong message to governments and policy makers alerting them to the fact that dementia is a serious health issue which will be having serious implications on services and health systems in the world as the population grows older. World Alzheimerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Month was piloted in 2010 in 12 countries and then implemented in the United States by the Alzheimerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Association in 2011. It became a worldwide event this year. The theme for this yearâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s World Alzheimerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Month is â&#x20AC;&#x153;Dementia: Living Together.â&#x20AC;?
The goal of Alzheimerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Day and Alzheimerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Month is to reduce the stigma associated with dementia and to try to make communities more dementia-friendly. Dementia is the more general term used to describe different brain disorders that affect memory, thinking, behaviour and emotion. Early symptoms of dementia can include memory loss, difficulty performing familiar tasks, problems with language and changes in personality. De-

Ray Lalonde retires after 44 years in business John Curry john.curry@metroland.com
EMC news - “Thank you, Ray, for 44 years of beautifying our landscapes and servicing our community.” This inscription on a giant photo said what everyone who turned out for a retirement open house in honour of Ray Lalonde was thinking and what everyone there wanted to tell the founder of Lalonde’s Richmond Gardens in Richmond. The giant photo was a recent photo of Mr. Lalonde standing near the cashier area at Lalonde’s Richmond Gardens. Those at the event were able to write a greeting to Mr. Lalonde on the photo’s wide white margin. The retirement open house was appropriately held in the main greenhouse area at Lalonde’s Richmond Gardens, with a number of colourful potted mums adding an appropriate floral atmosphere to the gathering. Held on Thursday afternoon, Sept. 20 from 3 p.m. to 6 p.m., the retirement open house saw numerous longtime customers and friends drop in to chat with Ray and to offer him their best wishes for a long and happy retirement. About 4:30 p.m., a brief ceremony saw everyone present raise their glasses in honour of Ray and in a gesture
wishing him a happy retirement. Ray thanked everyone for turning out for the event. There was a wide assortment of sandwiches as well as other liquid refreshments on hand at the open house. Ray began what became Lalonde’s Richmond Gardens at his home on McBean Street south of the Jock River bridge 44 years ago. He then relocated in the mid-1970’s to a site at the corner of Ottawa Street and Eagleson Road, developing what became a complex of greenhouses. Over the years, Lalonde’s Richmond Gardens became best known for its bedding plants. The business also carried some shrubs, evergreens and trees but Ray’s focus increasing became to specialize in the growing and sale of bedding plants, offering a wide and varied selection. He sold bedding plants wholesale to other nurseries while also retailing them at his home location. Because of this focus on bedding plants, Ray was able to develop growing techniques which resulted in high quality plants. Customers recognized this and faithfully patronized the business each year. Ray was the area representative for Green Cross, a firm which became well known for its insect and weed sprays and its fertilizers. This made him very knowledgeable about
such products and he became a source of local expertise about the use of such products. But Ray has been more than just a Richmond businessman; over the years he has been a community supporter. For instance, he has looked after the
potted plants which the Richmond Village Association has arranged to be erected on posts along Perth Street and McBean Street each summer as a way of beautifying the village. For years, he has worked on the cemetery committee of St. Philip’s Catho-
lic Parish, annually donating flowers to beautify the cemetery grounds. These are only examples of his community involvement which extended to other areas such as support for the Richmond District Lions Club and the Richmond Munster Minor
Hockey Association. Now, after 44 years in business with Lalonde’s Richmond Gardens, he has sold the business and is retiring. Scott Cummings is the new owner of the nursery with Debbie Goodfellow to serve as its manager.

Editor: Thanks to all for participating in and donating to the Stittsville Seniors’ Community’s first annual Sweet Memories Cake Sale for Alzheimer’s on Friday, Sept. 21. We asked residents, families, staff and our community to get involved in assisting us to raise money for the Alzheimer’s Society. We’re proud to say that we raised a total of $1,456.01. Many thanks to all for making this a truly successful event! This company-wide event called Celebrating Memories is part of our Revera Giving – Community in Action program. With every Revera site and office holding a Celebrating Memories fundraising event, we made a significant contribution to an important community partner which shares our commitment to supporting and celebrating seniors. The Alzheimer Society was chosen as the recipient of our fundraising efforts this year because we know that Alzheimer’s disease and other forms of dementia touch the lives of many of the people we serve. Funds raised from the Cake Sale at our site will be donated to the local chapter of the Alzheimer Society, so we know that we are giving back and building relationships in our community. Every contribution we make to Alzheimer’s disease education and community support is an expression of our commitment to celebrating the ageless spirit of older persons and building stronger communities.

EMC news - Trust, miracles, thankfulness. These were the three theme words that marked the address by double lung transplant recipient Helene Campbell of Barrhaven to those attending last Sunday’s services at the Community Bible Church in Stittsville. She said that her transplant experience taught her that a person has to trust others, such as family members and physicians. God has taught me that you have to learn to trust people in this situation or in any situation in life, Helene said, referring to her own situation but extending it to apply universally. When she asked the members of the congregation what they think of when they hear
the word “miracle,” a shouted answer came back “Helene Campbell.” “My story is really miraculous,” she admitted later in her presentation, not only for its medical aspect but also because now people in 161 countries around the world are more aware of organ donations thanks to the website which carries Helene story and message. God can take a situation and make it a platform for organ and tissue donations, she noted in talking about her story. “Every successful transplant is a miracle in my opinion,” she said. She said that the fact that 345,000 people have now registered to be organ donors thanks to her website and publicized experience is a “modern day miracle,” one that she likened to a modern version
of Christ feeding the 5,000 people despite having only a few loaves and fishes. “God took this story and it grew and grew and grew,” Helene said in trying to explain how her story has made such an impact. Helene urged everyone to thank the Lord every day for what we have, noting that before her double lung transplant experience, she tended to take everything for granted. She noted that she has named her lungs “gratitude,” breaking the name down as “attitude” with a little “grrr” in it or, as she put it, umph. She told how she used to take for granted the simple activity of going up and down stairs. Not any more, after stairs became a challenge when her lungs were ceasing to function. Even drinking a cup of orange juice, one of her plea-

as a vehicle through which people could become more aware of the need for organ and tissue donations. In an effort to promote the website and its message, she contacted Justin Bieber who tweeted about the website, instantly increasing its popularity. She later wanted to enlist the support of TV personality Ellen DeGeneres. She sent Ellen a video and ended up being interviewed via Skype on Ellen’s show. Helene, who is now 21, first encountered problems in July 2011 when she was camping with friends and could not keep up. It turned out she had a collapsed lung from a disease known as hardening of the lungs which interrupts the supply of oxygen. She had to have a double lung transplant and moved to Toronto to facilitate the transplant at the Toronto General Hospital if and when lungs were available. It was on Good Friday of this year that Helene learned about getting her new lungs. The significance of the day was not lost on her, as she pointed out in her presentation
last Sunday. She said that just like Jesus gave His life for us on Good Friday, a donor who passed away gave life to her. “Is that not God at work?” she asked. Helene said that through her whole experience, she got to see God at work not only in what happened to her but in what happened to others around her. She said that being in a relationship with God is something that people have to work on every day in order to stay connected with the Lord. She said that it is easy to get pulled away from relying on God but pledged that she will continue to praise God and continue her relationship with Him. She urged everyone to be thankful for what they have as Thanksgiving approaches. Prolonged applause rang through the church after Helene finished her presentation. Pastor Stewart noted that there is currently a waiting list of over 1,500 people, waiting for an organ donation. He urged people to register as organ donors, saying that being an organ donor can save eight lives and improve the lives of many others.

sures (with pulp, mind you) has joined the ranks of things for which she is thankful. Or just being able to tie her shoes, something that she could not do before her transplant because she was always just too out of breath to bend over and do it. “We have to be thankful for everything we have,” Helene said, adding that the Lord is so good to people. Helene was at the Community Bible Church because it was Taber Bucknell, a member of the congregation, who launched the website that told her story and helped her spread the message about organ donations. A year and a half ago, the Community Bible Church gave $100 to each family in the congregation, with the funds to be used to make a difference in the community. As pastor Steve Stewart said when introducing Helene at the church last Sunday, while many generated great benefits from the funds, one of the initiatives went way beyond what anyone could have imagined. And that was Taber Bucknell who took his $100, added some funds to it from co-workers and launched a website featuring Helene and the need for organ donations. He was familiar with Helene’s situation at the time as his wife knows Helene’s mother. “This is the church that started it all,” Helene said at the beginning of her presentation last Sunday, acknowledging the role of the church and Taber Bucknell in facilitating the website www.alungstory. ca, a website which has resulted in thousands of new registrants as organ donors, stretching out over 161 countries. Organ and tissue donors are now up by 50 percent because of this website and Helene’s story. She came to realize that the website was not really about her and her situation but that it had a greater purpose, namely

Excerpts from book but nothing about ending John Curry john.curry@metroland.com
EMC news - It was a tantalizing presentation by author Brenda Missen at the Stittsville branch of the Ottawa Public Library on Thursday evening, Sept. 20. She read several excerpts from her novel â&#x20AC;&#x153;Tell Anna Sheâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Safeâ&#x20AC;? and told something about the story line and how it all came about that she wrote the book but, in the end, she would not reveal the bookâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s ending. You have to read the book to discover that. This is Ms. Missenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s first published novel and it all arose from real-life events which happened in 1995 when a friend of hers went missing and she spent weeks searching for her. It took Ms. Missen ten years to write this novel reflecting this situation and another five years to find a publisher, no easy task for a firsttime author. But it did happen, with the book being released in May 2011 by Inanna Publications & Education Inc. of Toronto. Ms. Missen told about how she and a work colleague developed something of a friendship. This work colleague developed a relationship with a prison convict whom she had seen testify at a Supreme Court hearing. She ended up in her novel telling not only the story of her friend and her disappearance but also her own
story as well dealing with her search for her missing friend. The novel is, as Ms. Missen herself said in her presentation, a â&#x20AC;&#x153;mix of fact and fiction,â&#x20AC;? with facts being used when known but with much being fictional. Indeed, all of the dialogue comes from her imagination. But through it all, especially with regard to the character representing her friend, Ms. Missen tries in the novel to portray her faithfully, as a person who is on a journey not to try to save her convict friend but on a journey of her own to find and heal herself and solve her fears. In research for the book, she talked to many of Louiseâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s friends and consulted her journals. She visited the Warkworth and Pittsburgh prison facilities where her friend actually spent time visiting with her convict friend. Indeed, one of the excerpts from the book that she read at her library presentation described her friendâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s initial visit to the prison, with its â&#x20AC;&#x153;Stand Clearâ&#x20AC;? signage. Ms. Missen, though, admitted that her novel is not meant to be a sensational crime book but rather was written to provide a sympathetic, non-judgmental story about her friendâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s journey in life. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Everyone is on a journey,â&#x20AC;? she says in explanation. How the book ended up being published is quite a story in itself. As a first-time writer, she had been making approaches to smaller publishers over a five year period, with no success. Over this time, she did

Ways to lower car insurance rates at any age Drivers should look for more savings regardless of driver profile. Auto insurance is a major expense in a household budget. While itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s mandatory to have insurance, overpaying is not necessary. There are simple ways of getting a more affordable auto insurance rate, regardless of age or driving experience. NEW DRIVERS Use of a â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;good student discountâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; is one way to save on insurance for a young driver. Many insurance companies offer a discount for students who carry a minimum required grade average. Another way to save is by taking a driver education course from an approved school; to learn the rules of the
road. Be sure to inquire about these options, as they may not always be advertised. DRIVERS OVER 25 There may have been some improvement in yearly premiums for drivers with some driving experience. Donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t forget to also ask about further discounts. These may include: installing a security system, driving an eco-friendly car, or installing safety features such as winter tires. If recently married, combine policies with your spouse and take advantage of bulk discounting by having more than one car insured with the company. EXPERIENCED DRIVERS An experienced driver with a good driving record may be eligible for better insurance rates; the key is to find the insurance company that will offer the lowest rate. Shopping around for car insurance is the easiest way to find a better way. Other ways
to save include changing your deductible â&#x20AC;&#x201C; perhaps carrying a higher deductible; or, combining home and auto insurance policies with the same insurance company. DRIVERS OVER 55 YEARS Mature drivers over 55 years old may qualify for some of the best rates available. Some insurance companies across Canada specialize in getting the best rates for mature drivers. There are also retirement benefits to keep in mind: no commute distance may mean a lower rate. Make sure the insurance company changes the commuting status to pleasure use. MORE TIPS Remember to review your policy frequently. Tickets come off your driving record in three years from the date that you are convicted and accidents come off in six years. If a ticket or accident has come off your driving record,
check with your insurance company to make sure youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re not still paying for that ticket or accident. If you drive an older car, you may want to remove the collision coverage if you feel that itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not worth the extra yearly cost to compensate you for your vehicle value. This will reduce your insurance premium. Many car insurance companies may actually offer a lower rate to drivers who pay their premium in full on renewal than to those who choose to pay in installments. Monthly payments often come with fees that are charged on each installment. Paying the whole thing up front is a quick and simple way to pay less. No matter how old you are, it is always a good idea to shop around for a better rate. Quoting sites like ComparaSave.com help drivers find the lowest insurance rate available within their network of over 30 insurance companies.

EMC news - The Stittsville Village Association (SVA) supports the creation of the proposed new federal riding that will include Stittsville but with one boundary change and a name change. At its last meeting, the SVA executive agreed with the inclusion of Stittsville is a far-reaching riding that will extend across the southern part of the city of Ottawa, running from the eastern boundary of the city to the western boundary of the city. However, the SVA will be suggesting that the proposed boundary of the new riding not be Terry Fox Drive running south from highway 417 but rather be the Carp River from highway 417 to Terry Fox Drive south of Hazeldean Road. This would not only align the boundary of the new federal riding with the current municipal ward boundary between Stittsville and Kanata but also would see the residential area at the southwest corner of Terry Fox Drive and Eagleson Road (behind Sobey’s) be included in the proposed Kanata-West Carleton riding rather than with Stittsville. This residential area is part of Kanata municipally and the SVA feels that it should be in the same federal riding as well. The SVA believes that the proposed new riding should definitely include the name of Stittsville since Stittsville already makes up nearly 30 percent of the proposed riding’s population, a percentage which will grow as the Fernbank and Kanata West lands develop in the near future. The SVA also wants to see the new riding include reference to Ottawa in its name rather than the historical Carleton designation which has been associated
with federal ridings in the area. The Federal Electoral Boundaries Commission for Ontario which proposed the new federal riding distribution in the Ottawa area suggested that the new riding which would include Stittsville be called Nepean-Carleton, the name of an existing riding. However, the proposed new riding contains no parts of the former Nepean. The SVA will be suggesting that the name of the new riding be something like Ottawa-Stittsville-Riverside South, a name that not only locates the riding in the city of Ottawa but also identifies the riding’s two major population centres, Stittsville in the west and Riverside South in the east. The SVA executive has authorized current SVA vice-president Phil Sweetnam to prepare and make a presentation to the Federal Electoral Boundaries Commission for Ontario at its upcoming public hearings in Ottawa in early November reflecting the SVA’s views on the matter. The proposed new riding, with a 2011 population of 91,550, would include all of Stittsville along with Richmond, Goulbourn, Manotick, Riverside South and rural areas along the southern part of the city of Ottawa from the city’s eastern boundary to its western boundary. Stittsville would account, at present, for 26,000 of the riding’s population. Currently Stittsville and Goulbourn are located in the federal riding of CarletonMississippi Mills, along with Kanata, West Carleton/March and Mississippi Mills. The Commission is proposing that Kanata join with West Carleton/March to form a new riding with a population of 100,118 which is suggested be called Carleton-Kanata. The Mississippi Mills portion of the current riding of CarletonMississippi Mills is being proposed to be included in a riding called Lanark-
Frontenac-Hastings which will include all of Lanark County with a population of 108,500. A total of 15 new federal electoral districts are being proposed by the Federal Electoral Boundaries Commission for Ontario since the province’s increase in the 2011 census saw an increase in population to justify adding these 15 new federal ridings. In 2001, the province had a population of 11,410,046. In 2011, the population of Ontario had grown to 12,851,821. Final decisions about riding boundaries will be made by the Commission following public consultation. For the Ottawa area, these consultation public hearings will be held on Monday, Nov. 5 and Tuesday, Nov. 6, both starting at 10 a.m. and both being held at the Hampton Inn and Conference Centre on the Vanier Parkway near highway 417. Those wishing to make a presentation at these hearings must send the Commission written notice no later than Oct. 1. This notice can be sent by email to Ontario@rfedref.ca. The Federal Electoral Boundaries Commission for Ontario can be contacted at 1-855-747-7224 which is a toll free number. Currently the provincial ridings in this area reflect the boundaries of the federal ridings. However, for this redistribution and creation of new federal ridings, the province may or may not choose to adopt the new federal electoral boundaries as the boundaries for provincial ridings. At present, Ontario is the only province where this happens. All other provinces have completely different federal and provincial electoral boundaries. The new federal riding boundaries are expected to be determined and in place in time for the next fixed federal election date which is Oct. 19, 2015.

Donation for Open Table Special to the News
EMC news - Even as it wraps up its business, “The People’s Gathering Place” is continuing to serve others in the community. This church, which was located on Huntley Road between Stittsville and Richmond, has recently closed its doors, a sad happening, but even in this sadness, the church found joy in being able to help the community by making a generous donation towards the work of the “Open Table” community meals outreach program which takes place at St. Thomas Anglican Church in Stittsville. “The People’s Gathering Place” had started to support the Open Table. Brenda Guigue from “The People’s Gathering Place” had been attending the monthly
Open Table planning meetings, sharing ideas and forming friendships while also praying together with the others involved, both for the Open Table and also for the community of Stittsville generally. The Open Table committee at St. Thomas Church is most appreciative of all those at “The People’s Gathering Place” for their donation towards the work of the Open Table. This donation shows that “The People’s Gathering Place” congregation shares a common vision with those involved with the Open Table, namely a love of community and a desire to reach out to those in that community with the simple gift of a free monthly warm homecooked meal. The Open Table provides people in the community with the opportunity for an evening out in a safe and
caring place, enjoying a nutritious meal and no dishes to do. The Open Table community meals program is continuing, with everyone in the community most welcome to attend and enjoy the meals. These Open Table meals are always on the third Saturday of the month except for the summer. The doors at St. Thomas Anglican Church at the corner of Stittsville Main Street and Carleton Cathcart Street in Stittsville open at 4:30 p.m. with the meal served at 5 p.m. For more information, please phone the church at 613-836-5741 or check out the church website at www.StThomasStittsville.ca . The next Open Table community dinner will be taking place on Saturday, Oct. 20.

The Mid-Term Town Halls continue this week in Burritt’s Rapids. I will be at the Community Hall in Burritt’s Rapids on Thursday, September 27th from 7-9pm. My apologies to anyone who saw the ads in a recent paper which indicated the meeting was on Wednesday the 27th. Clearly, that date does not exist and the correct date is, in fact, this Thursday. Upcoming meetings also include Manotick on October 9th and Beckett’s Landing on October 10th. Last week, I hosted in Richmond and while there was a small turnout, we had a good exchange of questions and I was able to highlight and clarify some projects around Richmond. Given the small turnout, however, I will quickly summarize some of the items we discussed. The Richmond Village Marketplace is moving forward with the scheduled openings this fall of the King’s Independent Grocer and Tim Horton’s. The developer is currently making improvements to the access lanes on both Shea Road and Perth Street in order to allow for safe traffic movement in and out of the mall. The Richmond Plaza is currently exploring their options, including looking for a new anchor tenant and improving the façade of the buildings. As many have witnessed, the development at Hyde Park has been halted temporarily pending changes to the funding of the project. The developer is working toward a resolution and is expected to re-commence construction on the apartment building in the near future. As mentioned in previous columns, the “Western Development Lands” are owned primarily by two developers, Mattamy Homes and Caivan Communities. While Mattamy has yet to move forward on their southern portion of the land, Caivan has submitted an application for the northern portion. This application is for approximately 1000 homes but it is important to note that the process is just beginning and there will be ample opportunity for public comment as we proceed. Questions that will need to be addressed include servicing of the development, the future transportation pressures, and drainage. In 2013, residents along Ottawa Street (Eagleson to McBean) and King Street (Ottawa to the Jock) will see their road resurfaced and the destroyed Richmond sign at Shea Road is scheduled to be re-installed in the coming weeks.
Scarecrow Festival The North Gower Client Service Centre is pleased to welcome and host a scarecrow visitor who is in town this week for the first annual Scarecrow Festival. The Festival will be capped off by a Scarecrow Reunion which will be held at the North Gower Farmers’ Market on Saturday, September 29th, from 8:30 until 1:00. When he is not busy going around town visiting the other scarecrows that have arrived for the Festival, the esteemed Sir Wido Ghoulbourn will be hanging out at the City of Ottawa Client Service Centre on Roger Stevens Drive in North Gower until the Reunion where he will meet up with friends and relatives. I hope that you can drop by the Market, also located 2397 Roger Stevens Drive, and meet Sir Wido and the other scarecrows at the Reunion on Saturday. Adopt a Helmet Ottawa residents are encouraged to “adopt” a helmet between September 24 and 30 to be eligible for discounts of 20 per cent or more at select retailers. The promotion is timed for the beginning of hockey season, but also appeals to cyclists, skateboarders, and inline skaters looking to enjoy the autumn weather. Wearing a properly fitted helmet can reduce the chance of brain injury by 85 per cent, according to Ottawa Public Health.

OPH will be profiling different styles and technologies of helmets as “adoption ads” on the campaign’s blog (adoptahelmet.com).

Infrastructure report shows city needs to increase its spending on repair work Laura Mueller laura.mueller@metroland.com
EMC news - The city’s first-ever in-depth report on its infrastructure reveals that Ottawa needs to boost repair spending from $80 million to $165 million a year by 2022. Just days after spending $4.9 million to repair a sinkhole on highway 174 caused by a collapsed culvert, the report revealed the city isn’t spending enough to stay on top of repairing its roads, underground pipes and bridges. The report was particularly important in the context of a recent significant failure of a key piece of city infrastructure: the highway 174 sinkhole. “The cost in terms of both dollars and quality of life was very real,” Watson said. The money will be needed to repair and upgrade Ottawa’s $30 billion in roads,
water, transit, recreation and cultural infrastructure. None of the infrastructure is unsafe right now, but transportation infrastructure, such as roads, has the highest percentage in really poor shape, with 25 per cent of the city’s $11.2 billion in transportation infrastructure rated in poor to very poor condition. Transit infrastructure is in the best shape, with $1.4 billion of assets rated 79 per cent in good to very good condition. The report didn’t include detail on how the city will pay for the increases, but the options are limited: raise it from taxes, or take on more debt. Funding could theoretically come from the federal and/or provincial levels of government, although no new infrastructure programs are forthcoming. The infrastructure report was only tabled on Sept. 19; debate and discussion will take

place on Oct. 2. During that meeting, city treasurer Nancy Schepers will also present a proposed plan for finding the needed funds, which are all expressed in 2012 dollars and don’t account for inflation. There are spikes in the city’s infrastructure spending in 2012 and 2014 from the city’s Ottawa on the Move road rebuilding project, which shows that city council has already made infrastructure repair a priority, said Alain Gonthier, the city’s asset management boss. “With Ottawa on the Move you’ve allowed yourself a bit of breathing room,” Schepers added. The city currently carries around $1.4 billion in debt, which is less than the limits set by city council and the province. Schepers wouldn’t say whether taxes would have to go up, but Watson was firm on maintaining a maximum tax increase of 2.5 per cent annually. Last year alone, the city added $1 billion in new infrastructure assets it will have to pay to maintain over the years.
Special to the News
When asked if the report was a wake-up call that the city should cut back on building new infrastructure and focus instead on maintaining the assets it already has on the books, Watson said city council’s focus on reining in the urban boundary was an attempt to do just that. “Obviously we’re always going to be growing, but we have to have smart growth,” Watson said. “(It’s) one of the reasons why I was fighting to preserve the urban boundary. The farther out we go, the more expensive it is. We know that growth does not pay for itself.” River Coun. Maria McRae, who heads the city’s environment committee, said the city needs to include future maintenance costs in the “financial implications” sections of reports before council approves projects. “It’s short sighted and myopic of council sometimes,” said McRae, adding that councillors are sometimes just focused on “snipping the ribbon,” not on what it will cost to maintain infrastructure over its lifetime.
EMC news - The Stittsville Food Bank is critically short of food with the Thanksgiving weekend almost here and with Christmas not that far away. Individual donations of food items in the donation boxes located at various locations around Stittsville are one way to help out in this time of shortage. But another way is to organize a food drive which are a great way to share the feeling that you get through giving with your colleagues and friends. In addition, a food drive is a way not only to make a difference but to have some fun while doing it. Food drives can be held at an office, a special event like a BBQ or sports tournament or at a school. There are many possibilities. If you would like to host a food drive, just follow these simple steps: Register your food drive with the Stittsville Phone Bank by calling 613831-0451, through Facebook or by email to w.harding@ rogers.com. Provide your name and your organization along with contact information such as a phone number or email address; publicize
your food drive by sending out emails and Facebook updates to friends, family and colleagues, suggesting what could be donated. Other ways of publicity are using your company or organization’s website or newsletter or putting up posters around the community; hold your food drive at a collection spot that suits your needs. Paper bags and cardboard boxes are usually needed for the items donated and then can be used to transport the donated items to the Stittsville Food Bank. Non-perishable food items are acceptable at any time. Fresh food, milk and produce in limited quantities can be accepted with prior notice to the Food Bank; and, finally, take your donated items to the Stittsville Food Bank. Contact the Stittsville Food Bank at 613831-0451 to arrange for the delivery of the items or their pickup. Donated funds can be mailed to the Stittsville Food Bank, P.O.

Quintessence starts off with Beach Boys medley John Curry
john.curry@metroland.com
EMC news - There’s probably no better way to get a performance off on the right foot than to start off with a medley of carefree songs and there are no better songs in this genre than those of the Beach Boys. And so the a cappella vocal group Quintessence quickly had the audience at the Gaia
Java Coffee Company shop at the Stittsville Shopping Centre (Shoppers Drug Mart plaza) last Friday evening in its musical corner as the group led off its performance with a Beach Boys medley of “I Get Around,” an early hit by the California group; the 1965 hit “Barbara Ann”; and one of the group’s many top 40 hits, “Fun, Fun, Fun.” Even the most arduous
of Fridays takes on a happy sheen when Beach Boys songs are performed. And after this rousing, attention-getting start, Quintessence settled into a program that ranged from Paul Melsness leading in the singing of Billy Joel’s 1984 hit “The Longest Time” to “Oh, What a Beautiful Morning,” a famous Rogers & Hammerstein song most famously recorded
by Frank Sinatra and led by Barbara Jovaisas to Paul Jay’s “Moon Over Bourbon Street” to standards such as the Beatles’ “Blackbird” and “Happy Together,” and “Lullaby of Birdland”, a 1952 song sung by, among others, Ella Fitzgerald to the jazz favourite “Route 66.” And this was only the first half of Quintessence’s performance. Members of Quintes-
sense are Jean-Francois Fauteux, Paul Jay, Barbara Jovaisas, Marion Xhignesse, Susan Mayo and Paul Melsness. Quintessence was, with this performance, getting ready for a performance on Sunday at the first-ever Myeloma March at Andrew Haydon Park in Nepean. This was a fundraising event for Myeloma Canada. Indeed, usually all contributions to the donations box

(in lieu of tips) at Gaia Java Coffee Company go to a Canadian African initiative that helps people in Africa. However, on this particular evening and indeed all day long, the donations went to the Myeloma March, to the tune, at the end of the day, of $81. At intermission at the Quintessence performance last Friday, John and Irene Podgorski, friends of Gaia Java Coffee Company co-owner Paul Jay and his wife Susan Mayo, spoke about myeloma, a disease from which Irene has suffered for five years. Myeloma is a cancer of the bone marrow from which 300 people in Ottawa suffer. Stem cell transplants are one form of treatment. Myeloma is one of the fastest growing cancers in society today. It used to be only found among the elderly but now younger people are getting it. Early detection, like with most cancers, is a key in its treatment. Extreme fatigue is one of its symptoms, although symptoms can vary greatly because many organs can be affected by the disease. Myeloma, which is also known as “multiple myeloma,” is a cancer of the plasma cells which are found in the bone marrow, the hollow area within bones. The word “multiple” is often used because the malignant cells usually affect multiple areas of the bone marrow.

Girl Guide cookie sale Special to the News

Red Hatters pay visit to ‘Casa Di Zia Mia’ Special to the News
EMC news - It was no ordinary outing for the “Hyde & Sneakers” branch of the Red Hat Society. On Tuesday, Sept. 18, members of this branch of the Red Hat Society, which takes it names from the fact that most of its members live in the Hyde Park community in Rich-
mond, became the first Red Hat Society group to have lunch at the new “Casa Di Zia Mia” restaurant on McBean Street in Richmond. While this was noteworthy, what made the outing so special and extraordinary is the fact that this new Italian restaurant has been opened and is being operated by the former
owner of Louisiannies restaurant in Stittsville. And why is this so significant? Because this “Hyde & Sneakers” branch of the Red Hat Society held its first ever outing in the fall of 2004 at Louisiannie’s in Stittsville. And now Louisiannie’s former owner Annie is running “Casa Di
Zia Mia” in Richmond and she hosted the “Hyde & Sneakers” Red Hatters at their lunch at the restaurant on Tuesday, Sept. 18. Casa Di Zia Mia is open from Tuesday through Friday for both lunch and dinner while it is open on Saturday and Sunday from 5 p.m. onwards. The restaurant is closed on Mondays.
EMC news - They’re not the classic chocolate and vanilla sandwich cookies that are available every spring from Girl Guides. Rather, they are the chocolatey mint cookies that the Girl Guides sell every fall. But whether the classic cookies or these mint cookies, one thing is for sure – they are both yummy and delicious. And the chocolatey mint cookies will be on sale in Richmond next week as the Richmond Girl Guides are holding their Fall Chocolate Mint Cookie Sale again. The cookies will be sold door-todoor through the village on Thursday, Oct. 4 in the evening. And, for anyone who was missed or who wanted more, Girl Guides will be on hand at King’s valu-mart at the Richmond Plaza on Saturday, Oct. 6, with lots of the cookies for sale. Proceeds from the sale of these cookies help support Guiding activities, both in the community and across the country. These chocolatey mint cookies now have 90 percent less trans fat per serving than previously. Girl Guides of Canada has worked closely with baker Dare Foods Ltd. to reduce the trans fat content of Girl Guide cookies while maintaining the same great taste that Canadians have come to love. There are no nuts or nut products in Girl Guide cookies. Girl Guides of Canada have been selling cookies since 1927. It all began when a Regina Girl Guide leader baked and packaged cookies as a way to raise money.

EMC sports - Sam Sabourin of Stittsville was the best defensive player in Canadian university football for the week ending on Sunday, Sept. 16. The Queens University Gaels linebacker was named the Canadian Interuniversity Sport (CIS) football defensive player of the week in an announcement by the CIS national ofďŹ ce in Ottawa on Tuesday, Sept. 18. The selection is made by a committee of members of the Football Reporters of Canada (FRC).

Animals a hit at church picnic John Curry john.curry@metroland.com
EMC news - A corral full of animals of all kinds – from a llama to goats to ducks to chickens – attracted a lot of attention at the Sunday School picnic at the Stittsville United Pentecostal Church on Stittsville Main Street at Stanley’s Corners just south of Stittsville last Sunday, Sept. 23. As soon as the circular white fencing was erected and the animals, over 30 in total, were released into the enclosure, it was immediately surrounded with curious onlookers. And it soon became apparent that these animals love to eat. An ice cream cone filled with feed quickly attracted an animal such as a goat or
even the llama to the fence, poking its head through the railings to reach the proffered food. But there was more at the Sunday School picnic than this petting zoo. There was an obstacle course bounce set up on the church’s front lawn, giving children an opportunity to enter its unknown world and finally come out the far end, happy and delighted with the journey through the bounce. Besides this obstacle course bounce, there was also an inflatable laser tag game, something that could not be missed as it sat there on the church’s front lawn, beside the obstacle course bounce, but with a giant green monster at its top. You couldn’t miss it!
Another activity at the picnic was a “Shark Attack” game featuring a picture of a shark with its mouth wide open. This mouth served as the target for participants who had three chances each to use a foot-triggered catapult to try to loft a fish into the shark’s mouth. The day was sunny but cool, with a little breeze but certainly weather that allowed for a fun picnic – and the key was, it was not raining! Face and hand art, children’s games and a treasure chest filled with prizes were among the other activities at this Sunday School picnic. In addition, everyone got to enjoy a free BBQ lunch at this Sunday School picnic which ran from 10 a.m. through to 2 p.m.

‘Around the Block’ for hospice care Special to the News
EMC news - “Around the Block” is a three kilometer walk to raise funds for hospice care. But the event, slated for this Sunday, Sept. 30 from noon to 3 p.m. at St. John’s Anglican Church in Richmond, is more than that. It is also an awareness and knowledge building event, both for the Ottawa Mission Hospice as well as for the opportunities of grief support which are available right in Richmond. Everyone is most welcome to take part in this “Around the Block” event, raising funds for both the Ottawa Mission Hospice and the St. John’s Hospice Fund. Three-quarters of donations will go to the Ottawa Mission Hospice. St. John’s hosts a Thursday day hospice at its Fowler Street hall in Richmond in conjunction with Friends of Hospice Ottawa. The Ottawa Mission Hospice is a unique program that provides palliative care for men and women who are homeless. It operates a 14 bed facility where homeless people with a terminal illness can spend their final days in a supportive environment surrounded by people who care. Since opening in 2001,
more than 180 men and women have spent their final days at the Ottawa Mission Hospice. Donors pay for the food, the heat, the blankets, among other things, all to provide for the comfort of the clients. It is only through the generosity of donors that the Ottawa Mission Hospice can provide this service to the homeless. At “Around the Block,” Marg Smeaton, manager of health services at the Ottawa Mission, will be one of the guest speakers. Another guest speaker will be grief educator Ian Henderson who will talk about the opportunities of grief support being offered in the Richmond area. Those participating in this “Around the Block” fundraiser at St. John’s Anglican Church in Richmond this Sunday, Sept. 30 will not only be able to hear these guest speakers but will be able to participate in the three kilometer walk or, alternatively, a guided labyrinth walk in the church’s Quiet Garden. There will also be a fundraising BBQ held. For more information about this St. John’s Hospice Walk “Around the Block,” please contact Rev. Michel Dubord at 613-838-6075 or via email at info@saintjohnsrichmond.ca.

EMC news - 2012 promises to be the “Year of Fear” at Saunders Farm. Haunting Season at the Munster attraction kicks off this Saturday, Sept. 29, running through until Halloween at the end of October. It’s a completely renovated and re-designed Barn of Terror featuring the latest in scare technologies that will be leading the way in achieving this new level of “fright” at Saunders Farm this year. But it’s more than just a more frightening Barn of Terror. The Haunted Hayride is being enhanced this year with each wagon wired with an audio system that will bring the thrills closer than ever to hayriders. And besides these revisions to the Barn of Terror and the Haunted Hayride, there are other enhancements at Saunders Farm for this 2012 Haunting Season. There’s the new Zombie Paintball Shooting Gallery set up in a vintage army tent. There are new monster face painting workshops where you can learn how to apply monster make-up effects – just great for your Halloween trick or treating. The Farm’s spruce maze will be featuring an interactive pumpkin faces game. What kind of pumpkin face do you envision yourself being – well, when you exit from this maze, you will know. “It’s a fun game,” Mark says about this pumpkin faces game. And then there’s the brand new musical maze where you will be able to play a tune on one of the five instruments right there in the maze. There could be beautiful music coming from the maze this Haunting Season. Mark Saunders, the so-called Director of Fun at Saunders Farm, is excited about the changes made to the Barn of Terror and Haunted Hayride for this year’s Haunting Season. “I think people are really going to jump,” he says about the Barn of Terror this fall. There has been a complete interior renovation as well as a new waiting area that will start off the Barn of Terror experience with …well, you will just have see it for yourself sometime during Haunting Season. But Mark assures everyone that the Barn of Terror, while scary, will see lots of laughs follow the initial scare. “It will be a whole lot of fun,” he says about the Barn of Terror experience. As for the Haunted Hayride, each wagon is being equipped with an audio system that will allow the driver to interact with the people on the hay ride, adding another dimension to the experience. The driver will also be interacting with the characters in the surrounding forest. “It’s going to be more animated, for sure,” Mark says about the Haunted Hayride this year. Saunders Farm won the 2012 Farm Market of the Year in Ontario award, adding this provincial award to local and international awards which Saunders Farm has received previously for its innovation and leadership in the agri-tourism industry. During October every year, Saunders Farm is transformed into an eerie-sistible family fall attraction, playful by day and scary by night, not only with the Barn of Terror and Haunted hayride but with live performances and other attractions such as the new Zombie Paintball Shooting Gallery. Mark says that he is always on the lookout for possible new attractions when visiting other agri-tourism farms and attractions, trying to think of how an attraction from elsewhere could be adapted to fit into the Saunders Farm experience. This year, on Friday, Oct. 12, Saunders Farm will be hosting a special fundraising for the Youth Services Bureau in honour of the late Jamie Hubley who committed suicide last year. Jamie had worked at Saunders Farm for a year and a half before his death. More information about Saunders Farm and this year’s Haunting Season can be found online at www.SaundersFarm.com or by phone at 613-838-5440.

EMC news - Trivia was on the menu at The Glen Scottish Restaurant & Pub last Saturday night, Sept. 22. There was trivia a la knowledge, trivia a la entertainment, trivia at last music and trivia a la sports, all on the plates of the more than 60 who turned out for a Quiz Night at the restaurant in support of Friends of Hospice Ottawa. And when the five rounds of trivia were over, there was only one point which separate the first place team from the runners-up. The so-called Team # 4, comprised of players Neil Frenette, Katie Frenette, Erin Connelly, Pat Hill, Brendan Hanrahan and Jamie Shea finished with 57 points on the night, a one point menu topper over the second place team called Team # 9. The nine players on the runnerup team were Dave Tubman, Kevin Chevrier, Emma Passmore, Ann Chevrier, Carrie Phillips, Cheyene Wells, Cara Gibbons, Jeff Byrne and Greg McMillan. These teams, along with all of the others, had to demonstrate a wide range of trivia expertise. In the first knowledge round, questions ranged from knowing the most populous country on the continent of Africa (Nigeria) to knowing what gifts are traditionally associated with 5th, 15th and 35th wedding anniversaries (wood, crystal and coral respectively) to knowing the name of the last Canadian prime minister who was not born in Canada (John Turner). The second round, focused on entertainment, asked those playing to name two movies directed by Steven Spielberg (Schindler’s List and Saving Private Ryan) as well as other movie/TV related questions such as providing the family names of the main characters in the Bonanza, Eight Is Enough and My Three Sons TV shows (Cartwright, Brad-

ford and Douglas respectively). And so it went, challenging the players on their knowledge of various areas of trivia. So there was the music round, which had answers like Marvin Gaye, James Taylor, Barenaked Ladies, Alabama, Barry Manilow and Elvis Presley. And then, of course, what would a quiz night be without some sports trivia and the sports round had questions about the Olympics, hockey, the Toronto Blue Jays, the Ryder Cup and the U.S. open tennis tournament. The quiz night wrapped up with a second knowledge round which called on a knowledge of architecture, Shakespearean plays, light bulb filaments, the national ownership of various islands and an alternative name for a carbohydrate known as milk sugar. So, if you knew that Notre Dame Cathedral in France was Gothic architecture, that King Duncan was in the play Macbeth, that tungsten is the element commonly used as the filament in light bulbs, that the Canary Islands belong to Spain and that lactose is another name for milk sugar, then you would have dominated this final round. This quiz night also featured not only the quiz but also a raffle draw involving those who purchased raffle tickets which could be purchased, with the proceeds going to Friends of Hospice Ottawa. Up for grabs in this raffle were an inukshuk donated by Robert Webster of Stittsville; a candle arrangement also donated by Robert Webster; two wine baskets donated by Liane Cote of Vins Philippe Dandurand Wines; a Sun Shelter tent; two tickets to the Friends of Hospice Ottawa Christmas luncheon and fashion show; a Friends of Hospice Ottawa ‘Hug Me” bear and a bottle of wine; a Friends of Hpsice Ottawa cookbook and Mountie stuffed bear; and a signed Ottawa Senators jersey, a signed mini hockey stick and a signed Sens hat, all three donated by The Glen Scottish Restaurant & Pub. These three Senators hockey memorabilia were won by Cara Gibbons who had quite an evening as she was also a member of the runner-up team in the quiz night. Almost $2,000 was raised for Friends of Hospice Ottawa at this Quiz Night at The Glen Scottish Restaurant & Pub. Friends of Hospice Ottawa provides community-based programs and services to help improve the quality of life for individuals and their families who are living with a lifethreatening illness. These programs and services include in-home volunteer support, day hospices, caregiver support, transportation, information and referral, bereavement support and community education.

Youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d like to sell your home and youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re thinking about doing it yourself! Youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d better think hard about this because you could be in for a lot of unpleasant surprises. Take plenty of time to ďŹ nd out all the pros and cons and youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll see that thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a lot more involved than just installing a â&#x20AC;&#x153;For Saleâ&#x20AC;? sign on your lawn! To begin with, would you know how to write an effective advertisement? An ad which would reach the people youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re targeting? How much would it cost you? Do you know which questions to ask the newspaper representative in order for your advertisement to be effective? Once the advertisement has been published: -are you prepared to answer the phone every time someone is interested in your ad? -would you be able to recognize a serious buyer who wonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t waste your time? -can you be available to show potential buyers your home? -do you have enough time to answer everyoneâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s questions? And donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t forget the legal side of things. Do you know enough about the law to be able to prepare documents which will protect you in case of a lawsuit? Finally, you must be prepared to gather all the necessary documents together which the eventual buyer will need to ďŹ nance the purchase and which the lawyer or no-

Most people dream of one day owning a home. But if the home you purchase does not meet your needs and budget, this dream can quickly turn into a nightmare. That’s where a real estate agent can help. He or she is there to help you identify your specific needs while respecting your financial limits. But how can you tell if a real estate agent is competent? First of all, he or she should take the time to fully understand what type of home you are looking for. For example, do you want a single-family dwelling, semi-detached home, condo, farm or chalet? The agent should also look at what size of home you will need. This will largely depend on the number of people in your family. A competent agent will also ask about any special needs your family may have, such as a wheelchair ramp or first floor bathroom. He or she should also ask where you would like the home to be located - for instance, next to a school, near public transportation, or in a quiet neighbourhood. Since it’s easy to get caught up in the fantasy of finally owning a home, a real estate agent can help you keep your feet firmly planted on the ground. This means going over all the costs involved in buying a home-both the obvious costs such as the mortgage and insurance, as well as the less obvious costs such as

EMC news - City of Ottawa Rideau-Goulbourn ward councillor Scott Moffatt has set up a series of ten community town hall meetings throughout the ward over the next two months. At these meetings, councillor Moffatt will give an update on what has been happening on the city of Ottawa scene and in the ward in the past two years since the municipal election in Nov. 2010. In addition, he will also be there to listen to any concerns or issues that residents have and that he should be address-
ing in the second half of his four-year mandate as the ward councillor. Councillor Moffatt is hoping that as many residents as possible turn out for these community town hall meetings, each of which will run from 7 p.m. to 9 p.m. In Goulbourn, meetings are taking place in Richmond, Munster, Ashton and Country Club Village. The community town hall meeting in Richmond happened this past Wednesday, Sept. 19 in the upper hall at the Richmond Memorial Community Centre (arena).

Mary Cookâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Memories
night; another excuse for Father to complain. He liked everything on time and that included his meals. So by the time we had eaten, cleaned up the kitchen and hauled out chairs to circle the mounds of leaves, nightfall had settled in. We would start out with heavy jackets on to ward off the chill of the fall evening. My oldest brother, Everett, was always in charge of the matches. He had the lighting of the leaves down pat. He rolled sheets of the Renfrew Mercury into tight cones, and he lit the paper, setting it ablaze. That way he could poke the paper deep into the mounds of leaves, making sure it burned from the inside out. We sat on the kitchen chairs, circling the burning piles, but well back from the fire, we five children and Mother. Father chose to stay in the house reading the Ottawa Farm Journal. If marshmallows were in existence back then, we certainly didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t know about them. And it is doubtful we could have afforded them anyway. So the only enjoyment we got was sitting on the chairs and watching the raked leaves go up in smoke. Mother always took her mouth organ out on those nights and she expected us to sing along to whatever she was playing. Emerson refused. Audrey with her clear, sweet voice was the only one who could carry a tune and so she and Mother provided what entertainment there was. I would sit on the chair and listen, watching the flames rise towards the sky and wonder why Father couldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t see the sheer joy of the evening. The old iron pump was right in the middle of the yard and although Mother said there was absolutely no need for it, Father made sure there were several pails on the pump platform just in case the blaze got out of hand. By the time the fire was raging, we took off our jackets as the heat came at us in waves. It didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t take long for the piles of leaves to be burnt right to the ground and I often wondered if it was worth the effort.
CAT OF THE WEEK
I AM â&#x20AC;&#x153;ODIEâ&#x20AC;? WILL YOU LOVE ME? He is a lovely long haired pewter grey fellow. First few minutes when you meet him he will be shy but once he knows you are visiting him he will show all his sweetness and have his heart on his sleeve. He would love to be loved and made feel that he is special which he is. The more love you give the more he will return to you. Some one who will appreciate his sensitivity will be rewarded with undying devotion. You wonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t have to wait long.... once he loves you... you are his for keeps! For adopting this or any other cat contact GWEN at 613-258-2622. Check out the website www.countrycatrescue.com for available cats and more info. Looking for volunteers and foster families to help out with cat care. We are a registered charity. We are a registered charity.

This time of year, we all smelled the same at Northcote School. The heavy scent of burning leaves penetrated everything we wore and no amount of airing out could eliminate the odour of our smoke-infested clothes. But none of us minded. Burning leaves was something we all looked forward to at our farm and as far as I knew everyone in Northcote did the same thing. None of us minded the smell of smoke on our clothes- well, that is, we five kids and Mother. Father said making the event into a grand affair was something he had little time for: too many other more important things to do on the farm instead of making a party out of burning leaves. Our front and side yards were full of big maple trees and by the time the last days of summer rolled around the leaves were in some places knee deep. We waited until the limbs were completely bare and then on a Saturday it was time to rake the leaves and pile them into big mounds well away from the house and barns. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re asking for trouble,â&#x20AC;? Father would say. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Just one little spark and the whole place would go up in smoke.â&#x20AC;? Mother paid him no heed, asking him to come up with even one barn or house that had been burned to the ground because of leaf burning out at Northcote. I wasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t big enough or strong enough to manage a rake. So my job was to circle the mounds and with my feet, try to make each pile round, and push any wayward leaves into place. It took most of the day to round up all the leaves and when we were finished we would have about four big piles of leaves in the centre of the yard. Of course, Mother, who made an occasion out of the simplest events, wouldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t let us light the leaves until after the sun had gone down and the yard was in complete darkness. Supper would be early that
Fall tradition of burning leaves became family pastime despite smell on clothing When it was all over and we had hauled the kitchen chairs back into the house, Father would let out a big sigh, as if he carried the cares of the world on his shoulders. He would go out to the yard for the first time since sup-
per was over, and he would pump many pails of water, and pour it over the remnants of the burning leaves. He was taking no chances that the barns and the log house that had been there for three generations would go up in smoke.

Baking with apples
PAT TREW Food ‘n’ Stuff
Now that fall is officially here, the cool, sunny days are just right for a family outing to visit one of the many apple orchards in Eastern Ontario. While you’re there, ask the orchard staff to recommend which apples are best for eating and which types are better for baking. For this apple cinnamon braid, you’ll need two or three baking apples. The recipe starts with the dough cycle in your bread-making machine and finishes in the oven. Shaping the dough into a braid is very easy. Give the recipe a try now, and you’ll want to make it again for your guests on Thanksgiving weekend. This bread is nice with breakfast, with coffee or for dessert. Apple Cinnamon Braid Dough 2/3 cup water 3 tbsp. margarine or butter, softened 3 tbsp. white sugar 1 tsp. salt 2 cups flour 1 1/2 tsp. bread machine yeast Filling 2 cups apples, peeled and sliced 1 tbsp. white sugar 1 tbsp. flour 1/4 tsp. cinnamon 1/2 tsp. margarine or butter Place the ingredients for the dough into your bread machine in the order given. Select the dough cycle. While the machine is working, prepare the apples. Mix all the ingredients for the filling in a microwave-safe bowl and let sit for 15 minutes. Microwave the apple mixture on high for four to five minutes, stirring at one-minute in-
tervals. When the apples are soft and syrupy, the filling is done. Set it aside to cool. When the dough is ready, remove it from the bread machine. Place it on a lightly floured surface, cover with a damp cloth and let it rest for 10 minutes so it will be easier to work with. On the floured surface, roll the dough into a 33-by-20-centimetre pan. That’s about three hand widths long and two hand widths wide. Trim the edges of the dough, if necessary, to get the shape. Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil, grease the foil and then place the dough on it. Spoon the filling down the middle of the rectangle, so that the centre third of the dough is covered. Don’t be concerned if the apples are piled up. They’ll settle during baking. To shape the braid, first make cuts in the long side of the dough. Each cut should be 2.5 centimetres apart, and extend from the outer edge of the dough in to the edge of the filling. Next, starting at one end of the rectangle, fold a strip of dough diagonally over the filling. Now, fold a strip of dough from the other side so it overlaps the first strip in the centre. Continue, alternating sides, so that the filling is completely covered. Cover the dough with a damp cloth and let it rise in a warm place for about 30 minutes or until double. Use a ruler to measure the height of the braid before and during the rising to tell when it’s ready. Bake at 375 F (190 C) for 30 minutes, or until golden brown. When the bread is done, use the aluminum foil to transfer it to a rack. Slide the foil out from under the braid and let it cool. Slice to serve.
