White Cane campaign

COMMUNITY

ville Main Street fire hall on Saturday, Sept. 29 which attracted a capacity crowd and raised $3,650 for Anderson. Donations to help Anderson and his mom have the financial resources to provide for Anderson’s medical needs and to allow his mother to stay home and care for him continue to flow into the fundraising website which can be found at http://www.indiegogo.com/ help-anderson . Anderson’s medical problems happened quickly, just four months ago. On June 5, Anderson suffered a brain aneurysm which then ruptured, causing extensive bleeding in the brain. He also suffered a massive stroke. Emergency surgery was the only recourse in an attempt to clamp the aneurysm and stop the bleeding in the brain.

Special to the News EMC news - The Stittsville District Lions Club lost one of its most dedicated canvassers for the blind and vision impaired with the death of Lion Patricia (Pat) Peskett who succumbed to ovarian cancer on Monday, Sept. 24 after a year long struggle with the disease that is known as the silent killer. For the past several years, Lion Pat, in conjunction wit her husband Lion Al Zoschke, chaired the Lions annual October White Cane fundraising and awareness campaign at various Stittsville business locations. Pat’s interest in vision problems had its roots in her childhood when her grandfather lost his sight. But rather than bemoaning his misfortune, he took it as a challenge to satisfy a long time interest to master the playing of the violin. This early experience was augmented by Pat’s friendships over the years with people having varying degrees of vision impairment. In addition, she had a personal concern with the beginning of macular degeneration. That’s why the White Cane campaign of the Stittsville District Lions Club became a rallying point for her community involvement, particularly with vision related issues. Together with a Lion colleague, she usually anchored the White Can fundraising station at Brown’s Your Independent Grocer in Stittsville where she could always be counted on to produce the highest receipts of the campaign. A photo of Pat during the 2010 campaign at Brown’s YIG graced the front page of the Oct. 7, 2010 issue of the Stittsville News EMC. The 2012 White Cane campaign will be conducted with heavy hearts by Stittsville District Lions Club members as they remember the leadership and commitment displayed by Lion Pat Peskett in past campaigns. The White Cane campaign this year will happen over the two upcoming weekends. This Saturday, Oct. 13 from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m., Lions Club members will be at Brown’s YIG, collecting donations, handing out white cane pins and providing information about blindness and vision impairment.

EMC news - It’s a win-win. You can drive away with a gleaming car while filled with the knowledge that you have helped out a Stittsville single mom and her seven year old son who is recovering from a brain aneurysm and massive stroke. This can all happen at a car wash which Ottawa Fire Services firefighters from District 4 which includes both of the Stittsville stations host a fundraising car wash for young Anderson and his mom Shelley Black this Saturday, Oct. 13. Proceeds from this car wash will be going to help Anderson and his mom with their expenses as Anderson recovers from the brain aneurysm and massive stroke which he suffered last June and which has resulted in his left side being paralyzed.

The fundraising car wash will be held from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. at the former Stittsville Flea Market site on Hazeldean Road between Stittsville Main Street and Carp Road. With the spacious paved lot, there will be lots of room for vehicles wanting a car wash to line up, well off the road so that there is no traffic problem. In addition, the spacious area should allow the firefighters to move cars through their car wash area promptly. Firefighters from District 4 includes the Eagleson Road and Riddell Drive stations in Kanata as well as the Iber Road and Stittsville Main Street stations in Stittsville.

$2,000 raised in Apple Day Special to the News

EMC news - We all know the saying about “an apple a day keeps the doctor away.â€? It stems from as far back as 1866 in Wales. Apples are healthy for us, as they contain vitamin C, among other beneďŹ cial ingredients. There is even some suggestion that apples can protect brain cells against disorders like Alzheimer’s Disease. But, as the Stittsville Beavers and Cubs proved with their Apple Day over the Thanksgiving weekend, apples can also be effective fundraising objects, perhaps because of their beneďŹ cial properties as portrayed in that old saying about keeping doctors away. In any case, the Stittsville Beavers and Cubs collected

$2,000 for the Stittsville Food Bank from their Apple Day activities last Saturday, Oct. 6 as Stittsville residents were extremely generous. The Beavers and Cubs handed out the apples as a way of saying thanks to residents of the community for their support of Scouting activities while also collecting donations at the same time for the Stittsville Food Bank. Stittsville Scouting would like to thank all of the youth and parents who helped make this Apple Day event so successful this year. Thanks also go to the community businesses who permitted the Stittsville Beavers and Scouts to conduct their Apple Day activities at their premises.

Ken, accompanied by one of her daughters, Sandra, to drop the puck at a ceremonial faceoff at the first-ever home game for the GGHA atom Rockets team at the Goulbourn Recreation Complex (GRC) in Stittsville last Saturday afternoon. Her legacy for the GGHA, which started up last season and this season is icing teams in league play for the first time ever, has been immense as she and her husband Ken and their family provided an initial $5,000 donation that was the essential seed money needed so that the GGHA could provide the jerseys, socks and other equipment necessary for a viable girls’ hockey program. And the Thorneycroft family has continued to support the GGHA this season, with Joan recently attending the inaugural on-ice session involving all of the girls registered in the program this season and, of course, with her final wish that in memoriam donations for her be directed to the GGHA.

Joan Thorneycroft, an avid hockey fan, passes away Continued from page 4

“She was such a great lady and they (Joan and her husband Ken and family) are truly a great example of what giving is all about and the true joy of life,” GGHA president Cathy Bureau says. Joan was not a faceless benefactor for the GGHA, by any means. She attended GGHA on-ice sessions at times and last January was honoured with the presentation to her of a Rockets jersey of her own in appreciation for the generosity and support which she had shown to the organization. And the GGHA has grown, from its initial efforts last season when it held skill development sessions and played exhibition games to this year when it now has a novice (age 7 and 8) team and an atom (age 9 and 10) team which are playing in a league plus an initiation level program. The plan is to add another age-level team in each subsequent season with a peewee team being planned for next season. The GGHA teams are playing home and away games against a variety of teams such as Perth, Carleton Place, Smiths Falls, Kemptville and Russell. Indeed, in the novice team’s first-ever home game against Perth

last Saturday at the GRC, the Rockets posted a 4-1 victory. All those skill development sessions last season paid off. GGHA teams this season will be playing one game a week and also will be enjoying one practice session a week. The challenge, as with all minor ice sports, is to have enough ice time. The GGHA is using the mini-ice surface at the new Complete Hockey Development Centre on Iber Road in Stittsville for some of its initiation level ice needs. Joan Thorneycroft, right from when she was born as Joan Rowland in East Angus, Quebec, loved the outdoors. After attending school in East Angus, she went on to Stanstead College where she was captain of the women’s hockey team – yes, hockey was a lifelong passion of hers. After Stanstead College, she went on to the Montreal General Hospital, graduating as a registered nurse in 1952. That was a big year for her as it was also the year that she met the love of her life, Kenneth Thorneycroft from Swift Current, Sask. They married in 1953, after which Ken pursued his career in the Canadian Armed Forces, one that would last 30 years and take them throughout Canada, Europe and the United States, including postings in Yel-

lowknife, Germany and Colorado Springs. Following Ken’s retirement in 1983, the couple settled in Stittsville where Joan was an active member of St. Thomas Anglican Church and was a member of various golf and bridge groups over the years. They spent as much time as possible with family and friends at their cottage on Lac St. Pierre in Quebec. It was a place that they both cherished and where their grandchildren grew up enjoying the outdoors, just like Joan did in her youth back in East Angus. Joan is survived by her husband Ken, three children Sandra (Bruce Wickware), Diana (Michael Boss) and Robert (wife Kathy Schultz) and six grandchildren. It was a $5,000 donation which the family of Joan Thorneycroft of Stittsville made in her name to the new GGHA as seed money that really helped the new organization get up and running last year, complete with unique bright blue jerseys with the name “Rockets” on them. Rockets is the name of a team which Joan Thorneycroft played for back in her youth when she played hockey for her school teams. The name was adopted for the GGHA teams as a way of honouring Joan

for her generous support for the new organization. The initial $5,000 donation was so vital in helping the GGHA get established since the organization had really started up with basically no cash. The $5,000 donation meant that the jerseys, pucks and even ice time could be purchased. For Joan Thorneycroft, her youth growing up in East Angus, Quebec on the banks of the St. Francis River near Sherbrooke certainly involved hockey. There was an open air rink near her home and her two brothers were there all the time, playing hockey. She naturally ended up going there as well and started to skate and eventually play hockey, initially using hand-me-down skates from her brothers. Her school had a girls hockey team which played against other local schools. Joan, who played centre, admitted that her school team was not the best team but that everyone enjoyed playing together and felt like a family. The captained the girls’ hockey team at Stanstead College where she went for grade 12 but except for a couple of other occasions, this ended her hockey playing career. But it did not end her hockey loving days. She was a Toronto Maple Leafs fan for years, mainly because

when she was young, she and her father would listen to Maple Leaf games on the radio. But with the advent of the Ottawa Senators, she became an avid Sens fan. Wade Redden was a favourite player of hers. She watched a lot of hockey on television and would frequently get excited doing so, constantly urging players to shoot at the goal. She was always very sports minded, both in her youth and throughout her life, not only playing hockey but also golf, curling, volleyball and track and field. The $5,000 donation by her family in her name to the GGHA came about as a result of a conversation which her daughter Diana had with her about what kind of legacy she would like to leave. At the time Joan said that she would like to be able to provide financial assistance to help a young girl pay for skates and other hockey equipment. Diana investigated a couple of opportunities to do this but eventually the family settled on making the $5,000 donation to the new Goulbourn Girls Hockey Association as seed money to help the organization get going. In this way, Joan felt that she was helping not just one young girl but many young girls to have the joy of being able to learn about and play hockey.

Letter: Negatives outweigh positives in gaming expansion Editor: I take exception to the opinion expressed in the Oct. 4 issue of the Stittsville News EMC regarding the plan for a new casino in the Ottawa area. That legalized gambling and casinos have

been around for some time is no argument for or against gaming expansion in our city. The welfare of a society is far more complex than only its revenue. Determining the benefit of any plan requires a careful look at all its ef-

fects. It is the responsibility of our society’s leaders to make right decisions that will truly benefit people in the long term. While claims of millions and billions of easy revenue may be impressive and hard to resist, a careful look

at all the issues in and around gambling would show that the negatives outweigh the positives. Alan Gilman Stittsville

JOHN BRUMMELL/METROLAND

Seven year old Anderson Black is now recovering from his brain aneurysm and massive stroke which has caused paralysis on his left side. His rehabilitation could take up to two years.

Anderson survived the surgery but because the bleeding was worse than initially believed, the surgeons had to remove part of his skull to allow for the brain to swell. His life was literally hanging in the balance that night because of the severe trauma that his brain had suffered. The severe stroke that Anderson suffered caused a devastating degree of paralysis on his left side. He must spend his time in a wheelchair, quite a

hardship for a boy who used to enjoy riding his bike and playing the piano. Anderson was discharged from hospital on Aug. 10, unable to walk or even stand up on his own. He has not yet returned to school and when he does, it will only be on a part-time basis. He is still recovering from his brain injury, tiring easily. It could take up to two years for him to recover, doctors say. His mom Shelley left her job to be at Anderson’s side through this ordeal. That’s where she wants to stay, caring

for Anderson at least for the next year. Since her work was on a contract basis, she has no benefits and she does not know when she will be able to return to work or even if there will be a job for her when she does. Right now, she is focused on helping Anderson heal from his brain trauma. With no income and no insurance, Shelley is also a new single mom since she and Anderson’s father separated just four days before Anderson’s brain aneurysm. Anderson’s father was unemployed when Anderson fell sick and

like Shelley, he too wanted to be with Anderson during his hospital stay. Shelley, now facing a world that has been turned upside down with a child whose medical needs are massive, has swallowed her pride and on the advice of friends is asking for help. So far the generosity has been overwhelming. Funds raised to help Anderson will go toward neurological physiotherapy, equipment needs and various forms of treatment while also helping his mom to continue to be at his side throughout his recovery.

$2,651 raised at BBQ for ‘Leave the Streets Behind’ Village. The prestige of the event was enhanced thanks to the celebrity appearances by CTV Ottawa’s Max Keeping, city of Ottawa mayor Jim Watson and city of Ottawa Stittsville ward councillor Shad Qadri. David Desjardins, a former Master Corporal in the Military Police from 1995 to 2010 who is now a representative for the “Leave the Streets Behind” homeless veterans program, was also present for the event. Ottawa Fire Service firefighters were on hand throughout the BBQ, helping out. The BBQ was held not only to raise funds for the “Leave the Streets Behind” program but also to increase awareness of the problem of homeless veterans.

sue which is why the Royal Canadian Legion has launched the “Leave the Streets Behind” program. The problem is a hidden one because former soldiers are notorious for not asking for help and are reluctant to admit that circumstances may have gotten beyond their control. Their selfreliance, which made them good soldiers, hinders them in seeking basic support that they should be receiving to keep them healthy and off the streets. The Royal Canadian Legion itself has allocated $500,000 to this program, working through Royal Canadian Legion branches like the Stittsville Legion to provide support to needy veterans. This help can take the form of dental and medical assistance, food and rent. Canadian veterans of all ages and their families are eligible for assistance from the program.

Preparing for Ottawa’s vital green-bin change

C

hances are your garbage day is changing Oct. 29. If it’s not, you’re still going to have to get used to differences in the way trash is collected. For one thing, garbage will only be picked up every two weeks, while green bin materials will be collected weekly. Just shy of 160,000 households will soon get a letter telling them their garbage day is changing and letting

them know that text message, email and Twitter alerts are available for residents by signing up on the city’s collection calendar web page. Typically, changing the way someone’s trash is collected is enough to start a public uproar. Residents were unusually quiet last year when the city held public meetings about waste collection, but you can expect the outcry to get louder as the date of the changes draws closer.

But we hope that cooler heads prevail. Is taking out a green bin instead of a garbage bag every week such an onerous task? The benefits of diverting that recyclable organic waste away from the landfill cannot be overstated. Besides building the city’s new light-rail system, closing a landfill and finding somewhere else to bury our garbage would be the most expensive thing this city would ever have to do.

Currently, 42 per cent of household waste is diverted from the landfill through green, blue and black bin recycling. The switch would push the city’s organics diversion rate up by 50 per cent (about 40,000 tonnes), incrementally closer to the city’s goal of 60 per cent before the waste collection contract is renewed in 2016. Places like Sweden have loftier goals. That country already diverts 80 per cent of its waste away from landfills.

Complaints about the “mess� of green bins abound, but we have to wonder if those people realize that messy waste would still have to go into their garbage bags if they chose not to put it in their green bin. For every person who has given up on recycling organic waste because they found maggots in their bin, there is another person who has never faced that problem because they learned to freeze meat waste and put it into the bin

on pickup day. The city’s website, ottawa.ca/greenbin, is full of other common-sense tips to make the process cleaner and easier. Starting Oct. 29, people who choose to put their organic waste in the trash instead of the green bin will just have an extra week for it to decompose and cause odour. Or, they can simply put it into a different bin. It’s just a matter of being willing to adapt.

Our civic gambling addiction CHARLES GORDON Funny Town

N

ew irritations are added to our lives every day. The latest is the fact that lottery tickets are on sale virtually everywhere and everywhere you go people in front of you are buying lottery tickets, while you wait and wait. You’ve got a magazine or chocolate bar or a package of razor blades to pay for and you can’t do it because the guy in front of you keeps buying tickets and winning more tickets and buying more tickets and winning again. The guy could be spending his money on something that could be improving the quality of his family’s life. Then he wouldn’t be standing at the cash clogging things up for everybody else. “Winner! Gagnant!,� the machine keeps exclaiming, way too cheerfully, while he keeps buying more tickets with his “winnings� and while you mutter under your breath about the decline of civilization and wonder if you should start ordering your razor blades online. In such small ways does gambling make life miserable for innocent bystanders. People are addicted to lottery tickets; stores are addicted to selling them. But before you spend too much time condemning these clients of the gambling industry, take a minute to look at who’s setting the example for them. That’s right. Our governments – as hooked on gambling as the unsmiling slot-machine feeders you see in the casinos. Exhibit A: The mayor of Ottawa and the city council – or at least most members of it – drooling over the prospect of a big shiny casino being located downtown somewhere

(and just incidentally helping to doom the horse racing industry when the slots are taken away from the race track). The mayor and council could be spending time, not to mention money, on ways to improve the lives of their constituents. Think of infrastructure, roads that don’t cave in, neighbourhoods that work, transit, traffic congestion. Instead, they are standing at the counter, waiting for the lottery ticket to pay off. Carrying the metaphor to its logical conclusion, taxpayers are the ones behind the counter making the decision. Is the casino a winner or not? We can decide that, either by encouraging the mayor’s casino dream or by frightening him off it. The final council decision will take quite a bit of time and the mayor did not get where he is today by not listening to people. So the question is, does the casino pay off for us? How does it pay off? Do tourists flock to Ottawa? Remember that some casinos in border cities have been doing badly. Do customers of the casino in Gatineau flock back? Do the customers drop big money in local restaurants and stores or do they just stay in the casino? Are there big tax revenues to be had? Are casinos an adornment to the downtown landscape or a drag on it? No one actually knows. All we really know is that gambling addiction is on the rise, with lots of social costs and that a new casino is certainly not going to reduce those. We have learned, from years of watching the industry develop, that there is nothing classy about casinos. We know that casinos are not really for the high-end, fashionably dressed tourists you see in the advertisements. They are also for people who can’t afford to gamble. Are we doing those people a favour by making it more convenient for them to lose their money? Are we doing the city a favour by doing this? Those questions don’t seem to concern the mayor and most of the councillors as they stand at the counter waiting for the machine to tell them they are winners, while the rest of us stand impatiently behind wanting them to move on and do something useful.

Recovery after 40 years as compulsive gambler John Curry john.curry@metroland.com

This usually results in even bigger losses. Mr. Finn said that gambling may start out as a fun activity but it can become a problem for some. He said that from his 40 years of experience, gambling is definitely not a way to make money. He admitted that if a person plans their gambling and stays in charge of it, gambling can be a lot of fun. He said that he estimates that he lost a half a million dollars gambling over the 40 years that he gambled. Part of the problem is the mental stress involved. When elated with a gambling win, he could not share that happiness with anyone. The same was true if he lost when gambling – he could not share the feeling with anyone because of the double life that he was leading as a gambler. His wife did not know anything about his gambling as he intercepted all of the bills in the mail, keeping them away from her since many were not paid. Mr. Finn said that the hardest part when he quit and went into counseling was telling his wife. He said that her look of disapproval, shock and devastation on her face at that time of telling was something that he never wants to see again. He and his wife are still to-

He said that a gambling addiction can be overcome but like with any addiction, it is a day to day struggle. He admits that he still gets the urge to gamble once in a while but he doesn’t, although he says that he still enjoys watching horse racing on television. Citing the amount of exposure which gambling such as

poker receives these days and the province’s current plans to expand gambling facilities, he says that there is a need to be educating today’s youth about the risks related to gambling. The Responsible Gambling Council which Mr. Finn now chairs is the independent, nonprofit organization which operates gambling resource help centres at all Ontario Lottery

Corporation facilities. It is his view that the gambling facilities do want to help in eliminating problem gamblers, partly in a self-serving way because a problem gambler is not a good client for them. The Responsible Gambling Council wants people to be responsible gamblers who realize that any kind of gambling comes with risks, both financial and also health related due to stress that could be involved. The Responsible Gambling Council advocates five ways to keep gambling safer: gambling is not a way to make money but should be viewed as a leisure time activity done with the knowledge that most players lose, not win; only gamble with money you can afford to lose, that is, money that is put aside for entertainment; set limits for time and money and then quit when you reach these limits since the longer a person plays, the more likely the person is to lose; don’t chase your losses by trying to get lost money back by gambling more and going over your limit; and never borrow money to gamble since this is likely to end up with the person being in debt. Advice regarding responsible gambling can be found on the website NoRegrets.ca . R0011650589

EMC news - With gambling somewhat in the spotlight in the city of Ottawa at the moment with the move to have a full-fledged casino in the municipality, it might be revealing to know the story of Terry Finn. A Kanata resident who admits to being a recovering gambler after 40 years as a compulsive gambler, Mr. Finn told his story recently to members of the Rotary Club of Ottawa – Stittsville. Now chair of the Board of Directors of the Responsible Gambling Council, he told the Rotary members how he began gambling when he was 13 years old and working at the Connaught Raceway in Aylmer, starting a gambling addiction that did not stop until the end of 2000 when he was 53 years old and sought counseling to end the addiction. It all began for him when he was 13 and making two dollar bets while working at the race track. It was exciting since he was underage to bet and it was a chance to make some money. On graduating from high school, he worked as a sales representation and was, as he said, a full time patron of the race track.

“Soon I was leading a double life,� he said. No one, not even his wife, knew about his gambling and this in itself became stressful for the husband and father. His mental burden of trying to cover his gambling losses while always looking over his shoulder, afraid someone would find out, wore on him. “I always thought I could deal with the problem,� he said, with a perpetual belief that he was only one bet away from a big win where he could pay off all his debts and quit. He always thought that he could win back what he had lost and he would bet whatever money he had in his pocket. Mr. Finn was on the verge of bankruptcy when he finally took action, identifying himself as a problem gambler at the casino and asking to be excluded and beginning three years of counseling. He disputed the perception that a person with a gambling problem can easily quit. He admits that in his case, all of the warming signs were there, such as using money for gambling that should be going to pay bills. “I was chasing my losses,� he said, referring to the gambling behaviour where a person, on losing money, tries to get it back by gambling more.

Rotary film series john.curry@metroland.com

EMC news - The Toronto International Film Festival, founded in 1976 and now one of the most prestigious film festivals in the world, has shown the way and has generated interest in independent cinema productions as well as mainstream Hollywood films. Now Stittsville and area movie fans are going to have a chance to attend their own mini-film festival. It’s being called the Stittsville Rotary International Film Series and plans are slowly coming together thanks to the

work of a committee of Rotary Club of Stittsville – Ottawa members led by Val Wright. The Rotary Club hopes to establish this mini-film festival as a fundraising initiative but also to provide a film experience for Stittsville and area residents. Initially it had been thought that the film festival would take place in the theatre at Sacred Heart Catholic High School but the equipment there is not compatible with what is required. So arrangements are being made for the film festival to take place at the Empire Theatre in Kanata, albeit under the name of the

Stittsville Rotary International Film Series. It is envisioned to present four film evenings, held on a monthly basis between October and April. Plans include selling ticket packages for all four evenings. There will also be individual tickets available and tickets will also be sold at the door. The Rotary Club is hoping that the ticket packages will catch on as a Christmas gift idea. There will be more forthcoming about this Stittsville Rotary International Film Series as arrangements and dates firm up.

EMC news - On a student trip to Italy when she was in grade 11, Sacred Heart Catholic High School grade 12 student Anna Polito saw and heard Pope Benedict XVI delivering an address to an assembled crowd. While he spoke in various languages, she still remembers the Pope’s English language words: “Put all your trust into God and you can achieve all goals.” This trip to Italy had quite an impact on Anna who claims that she has never had a better experience in her life than on this trip which not only exposed her to the culture of her ancestors but also let her enjoy the company of many friends. Even today, she daily wears a bracelet obtained on this trip

to Italy. “I loved it,” she says about this student trip to Italy, admitting that she would like to go back, extolling Italy’s rich culture and the different way of life which prevails in that country. “It was just being in the culture which was the great experience for me,” Anna says, noting that she particularly liked seeing both Venice and Florence. But this trip to Italy was not the only experience at Sacred Heart that has had an impact on Anna. Since grade nine, she has been attending “The Well,” a student-run retreat program which helps students learn about and discuss their faith. She is now serving as the program’s co-director this year and from her own experience knows the value of it both to

an individual student and to the school itself. “The Well” has helped me grow as a person, she says, allowing her to better herself by bettering others and developing a relationship with God. “The Well” has weekly meetings as well as weekend retreats twice during the school year. “I am a great fan of The Well,” Anna says, believing that every high school should have such a program. “It betters the students which betters the school,” she notes. Anna, 16, also served as one of the student leaders at Sacred Heart’s leadership camp for grade nine students this past September. In this position, she helped organize the activities and workshops at the camp, including its prayer services.

Anna Polito She had wanted to be such a student leader at this threeday leadership camp since she attended the leadership camp when in grade nine and found that the camp really helped

This year Anna has also joined Sacred Heart’s Eco Team whose environmentally inspired activities she feels are helping to better the school community. In school, Anna’s favourite subject is English, especially as she enjoys creative writing. Her dream is to attend Queens University in Kingston next year with the ultimate goal of becoming a teacher like her mother or to go into law. That’s why she is trying to focus on her school studies this year, even though she already enjoys marks in the 80’s. Anna, who has attended Sacred Heart since grade seven and was a student at Holy Spirit Catholic School in Stittsville before that, says that she is close not only with her immediate family but also with her extended family in Sault Ste. Marie, saying that she is very close with her cousins there.

Anna is busy outside school as well, as she now has a job as a dietary aide at the Granite Ridge long term care facility in Stittsville. In this work, she serves the meals to residents, giving her an opportunity to get to know them personally. She has come to know that these residents all have their own personalities and it is fun being around them. Anna used to play soccer in the community and this year she plans to try out for the school’s girls’ soccer team, playing defense. Although she does not play football, she knows the sport well as her younger brother plays for the Bell Warriors minor football club and her father coaches one of the Bell Warriors teams. This means that football is a frequent and constant topic in her home.

Fall supper at Stittsville United Church

Pets help street youth John Curry john.curry@metroland.com

EMC news - Pet ownership by homeless street youth has some downsides but more upsides. This is the view of Dr. Michelle Lem who founded Community Veterinary Outreach which provides veterinary services to the pets of the homeless and who herself is working on a Master’s thesis which involves epidemiology research about street youth who are pet owners. As she told members of the Rotary Club of Ottawa – Stittsville at their meeting on Tuesday, Oct. 2, her work has found that pet ownership by homeless street youth does have certain liabilities such as affecting their ability to find shelter since homeless shelters do not allow pets, affecting their employment prospects since they generally have no place to leave their pets while working, adding more demands since they have to feed both themselves and their pet, the potentially damaging impact of losing the pet and a negative public view based on a perception that if a homeless youth cannot look after himself or herself, how can the youth also look after a pet. But while there are these liabilities, there are also signifi-

cant benefits for these homeless youth who have a pet. The pet helps the youth cope with any depression and also provides some structure to the youth’s life. There is also a pride of ownership of the pet. Dr. Lem also found that having a pet was likely to decrease the use of drugs by a homeless youth. Indeed, interviews with homeless youth, both pet owners and non-pet owners, has revealed that homeless youth with pets decrease their use of alcohol and drugs and also try to avoid getting arrested because such an arrest would lead to the loss of their pet. Almost half of the pet owning youth who were interviewed admitted that having a pet saved their life in their view. Dr. Lem said that there also seems to be an association between pet ownership and depression, with non-pet owning youth three times more likely to be depressed. This could be because having a pet helps give some meaning to life for

homeless street youth. She said that pet ownership by homeless street youth needs to be supported as pet ownership provides a degree of structure and routine to their lives. She said that it is estimated that about 12 percent of the homeless population are pet owners. Dr. Lem said that the pet can be a vehicle to engage these homeless street youth and perhaps get them involved with other services. “People will show up for their pets: they may not show up for themselves,” said Dr. Lem. As for the Community Veterinary Outreach program which provides veterinary services to the homeless with pets, the program is now expanding to the Hamilton and Kitchener-Waterloo areas. In addition, a pilot clinic was held in Toronto recently for the first time. The Rotary Club of Ottawa –Stittsville has provided financial support to this Community Veterinary Outreach program in the past.

EMC news - Do you like turkey? What about ham? And then there’s potatoes, gravy, baked beans, salads, turnips and corn. And don’t forget those pies for dessert. You can’t beat it and, as the old saying goes, if you can’t beat it, join it. Yes, that’s right, everyone is welcome to attend the annual fall supper at Stittsville United Church where all of this – turkey, ham, etc. – will be on the menu. And you don’t have to eat it there at the church because there is takeout available for those who wish to enjoy this meal at home. This fall supper is being held at the Stittsville United Church on Fernbank Road just west of Stittsville Main Street on Saturday, Oct. 20 from 4 p.m. to 7 p.m. Tickets will be available at the door.

University fastball at Alexander Grove Special to the News

EMC sports - University women’s fastball was played at Alexander Grove in Stittsville last Friday and Saturday. The University of Ottawa Gee Gees wrapped up their regular season home games before the final championship weekend at the University of Western Ontario in London this coming weekend. Queens University and York University provided the opposition for the Gee Gees in a pair of doubleheaders. Queens played the Gee Gees on Friday evening,

going down to a pair of defeats, 9-0 and 8-1. On Saturday, the University of Ottawa Gee Gees played the York University squad, splitting a pair of games. An 8-1 victory was followed by a 6-4 loss. The Gee Gees and York Lions both finished in the top three in the regular season, so they will be strong challengers for the championship prize this coming weekend. The University of Ottawa Gees team, which plays many of its home games

in Orleans, does move its home games around the city a little to allow different minor ball athletes to watch the games. These games at Alexander Grove were dedicated by the Gee Gees to the memory of Jamie Hubley, the Glen Cairn young man who committed suicide last year after being bullied due to his sexual orientation. The Grove is near city of Ottawa councillor Allan Hubley’s Kanata South ward, making it an appropriate location for such games dedicated to his son’s memory.

The green and white X-Men jumped out into a 29-0 lead after the first quarter, expanding it to 43-0 by half time. The red-shirted Huskies gave up only two touchdowns in the second half as the game ended 57-0 for the X-Men.

DROP IT AND DRIVE CAMPAIGN PUBLIC MEETING Drop It And Drive (D.I.A.D)’s presentation is energetic, hard hitting, improvisational and fully interactive regarding the dangers of Talking & Texting While Driving as well as other forms of Distracted Driving. Drop It And Drive founder, Karen Bowman has pulled together a unique team of speakers including a retired Captain with the Surrey Fire Fighters, members of the RCMP and Young Drivers of Canada. The goal of the D.I.A.D. campaign is to help raise awareness about this growing problem through its Blog, social media and powerful on-site presentations. By reaching out to as many residents as possible, they hope to not only effect change within the immediate audience, but through them, reach parents, peers, co-workers & neighbours. By frequently switching speakers, using PowerPoint presentations and carefully selected videos, they hope to ‘drive’ home the message. The presentation will be taking place on Thursday, October 25th from 7pm to 8:30pm in the upper room, located at the Johnny Leroux Stittsville Community Arena, 10 Warner Colpitts Drive, Stittsville. This presentation is free of charge. FIRE PREVENTION WEEK OCTOBER 7 TO OCTOBER 13TH Fire Prevention Week and Ottawa Fire Services will be in the community to celebrate the week. Smoke alarms and escape plans won’t stop a fire at home, but it will save lives. Here are some helpful tips and reminders: • You have working smoke alarms on every level of your home – including the basement and outside of sleeping areas. It’s not just great advice; it’s the law. Test them once a month and replace your alarms every 10 years. • Your home and family have a fire escape plan and periodically have practice drills. This is the best way to prevent panic, especially among children. Be sure every family member knows what to do and where to go in the event of a fire emergency. • If your home has a fuel-fired appliance, like a natural gas furnace or wood-burning fireplace, and an attached garage have a carbon monoxide alarm installed. Carbon monoxide is a colourless, odourless and toxic gas that can lead to serious injury or death. Ottawa Fire Services wants residents to not only have a fire escape plan for every room in the home, but also a backup plan in case the primary exit is blocked. This is why the theme for Fire Prevention Week, is Have Two Ways Out. TAKING ACTION TOGETHER: ADDRESSING GANGS IN OUR CITY Are you concerned about youth getting involved in gangs? Please come join City of Ottawa Police Chief Charles Bordeleau and Crime Prevention Ottawa along with special guests on Wednesday, October 17th from 6:30 pm to 9:00 pm at Ottawa City Hall. • Panel presentation about gangs and prevention from 7 pm - 8 pm • Ottawa Police Guns & Gangs Unit Staff Sergeant Mark Patterson • Get involved – share your ideas and solutions from 8 pm - 9 pm with Adrian Harewood from CBC News Ottawa • Networking and light refreshments available 6:30 – 7:00 pm To register or for more information, please email CPO@ottawa.ca or contact Francine Demers at 613.580.2424, ext#22454 TRANS CANADA TRAIL CONSTRUCTION Residents using the Trans Canada Trail (TCT) may notice the work being undertaken at along the trail near Terry Fox Drive. The work underway is related to providing sanitary services to the Fernbank Community in accordance with the Fernbank Community Design Plan (CDP). The Sanitary Sewer is located within the TCT from the Hazeldean Pump Station until the first major collector road (approximately 325m west of Terry Fox), where it then crosses into the Hydro Easement. It then continues within the Hydro Easement west to the second major north south collector road (320 m west of Iber Road). The construction is planned to commence this week and to be completed to the major collector road by mid-November 2012. As part of the agreement to extend the sewer services, the developers group has agreed to plant ten new trees in a location approved by the City. It is understood that such location should be along the TCT or as close to it as possible. HAZELDEAN ROAD WATERMAIN UPGRADE FROM CASTLEFRANK TO KINCARDINE In accordance with the City of Ottawa Infrastructure Master Plan, the existing 610mm ductile iron watermain, which was installed under the eastbound lanes of Hazeldean Road in 1976, is to be upgraded to a 914mm diameter main between Castlefrank Road and Kincardine Drive, to match the size of the existing feedermain east and west of the project limits. There have been several recent breaks on this section of watermain and the pipe is shallow and in poor condition. The watermain is part of the critical backbone infrastructure that provides the main supply of water to the Stittsville area. A new 914mm diameter watermain will be installed and the road structure above the trench will be reinstated. There are no identified needs for any other infrastructure to be upgraded as part of this project. The plan is to install the new watermain under the westbound lanes of Hazeldean Road and for the new main to be commissioned before the existing watermain (under the eastbound lanes) is filled and abandoned.

PUBLIC INFORMATION: A notice of construction start will be sent to adjacent property owners prior to the commencement of construction. The notice will contain information regarding the anticipated construction impacts, schedule and the key contacts for the project. Timing of Construction is as follows: • Mid / late Oct, 2012 – The contractor will mobilize to site and commence preparatory work and set up temporary traffic control measures. • Early Nov, 2012 to mid Dec, 2012 – Watermain installation from Kincardine Drive to Edgewater Street. • Spring 2013 to fall 2013 – Watermain installation from Edgewater Street to Castlefrank Drive. • Regular traffic flow on Hazeldean Road will be reinstated from approximately mid Dec 2012 to mid March 2013. The contract is scheduled to be fully completed by Oct 2013. For further information or to provide comments, contact Jonathan Knoyle, the City of Ottawa Infrastructure project manager at 613-580-2424 extension 16436 or email jonathon.knoyle@ottawa.ca HYDRO ONE BRUSH REMOVAL Hydro One is currently undertaking removal of brush land underneath the large hydro corridor as part of their 10 year cycle for brush control. This is the large hydro corridor crossing Fernbank Road at the Shea Road intersection and then continues parallel with the Trans Canada Trail towards Kanata. Staff have advised their intention is to remove invasive brush and retain significant trees; however in some areas a complete removal is required due to the density of the vegetation. This work was started in Smith Falls and will continue to Terry Fox Drive in Kanata. I understand that some of this work is being done in the area that has become an informal dog park. It is important that residents are aware that this land is private property and any residents that are accessing this property should take caution at all times. This area will be developed in the future as outlined in the Fernbank Community Design Plan (CDP). For more information on the Fernbank CDP please visit: http://www.shadqadri.com/plan_mix.htm . Waste Management Environmental Assessment for the expansion of theCarp dump up for comments The Environmental Assessment Report, submitted by Waste Management to the Ministry of the Environment, will be available for public review and comment from until Friday November 2nd, 2012. The Environmental Assessment Report is available in electronic form on the project website (http://wcec.wm.com) and in hard copy. The five volumes of information pertaining to the Environmental Assessment are available in hard copy at the Stittsville Public Library as well as my Ward office in the Goulbourn Recreation Complex. I strongly encourage you as residents, to please provide your comments to the Ministry of Environment on the Environmental Assessment regarding this project, keeping in mind that this is in regards to the proposed expansion of the Carp dump. It is important for the public to get involved with their feedback on this Environmental Assessment. Resident of Stittsville honoured with Queen’s Diamond Jubilee Medal I would like to take this opportunity to congratulate one of our residents, Louriene Ford also known to many as “Fordie”, who was awarded the Queen’s Diamond Jubilee Medal on October 2nd at Parliament Hill by the Speaker of the Senate. Ms Ford has been donating her time for the past 20 years singing and playing her keyboard at seniors’ retirement/ nursing homes as well as many other events. I have had the pleasure of having Ms. Ford perform with her entourage of ladies at my Canada Day Seniors’ Breakfast. It is a true delight to see the way she engages everyone in the room to sing and clap along to the music. Ms Ford is a modest lady who often declines recognition for what she does as she does it simply to make people happy. What better way to receive thanks than being honoured with the Queen’s Diamond Jubilee Medal. Congratulations Fordie you deserve it! DID YOU KNOW....THE GREAT FIRE OF 1870? On August 17, 1870, workers cutting brush in preparation for the new Central Canada Railway line near Blakeney between Almonte and Pakenham, set about to burn the brush only to have it become unmanageable. The fire had spread into the adjacent bush area. Efforts to contain the fire proved ineffective as the winds, eventually picked up 60km per hour speeds later in the day. As the day went on the winds shifted and began blowing eastward, with the fire front increasing from the seven mile front experienced in the Fitzroy Harbour area to an 11 mile wide front when the fire reached the Goulbourn/Stittsville/Bells Corners area. Eventually much of the Carleton County and Lanark County had been devastated. Countryside residents sought refuge either by rushing to the Ottawa River and wading into the waters, along with other men, women and children and farm animals like pigs, horses and sheep or by climbing down their dug wells or by burying themselves in trenches in their potato fields. The fire lasted for weeks. Over 3000 farms and dwellings on both sides of the Ottawa River were destroyed. Twelve lives were lost along with countless numbers of livestock. The fire was unknown in Ottawa, about 40 km distant, because the telegraph lines were destroyed early in the fire, and newspaper publishers only got what information someone happened to bring to their doors. In the wake of the fire, Ottawa city council gave $5,000 to help the victims. The provincial government in Toronto initially offered no help but eventually agreed to provide loans at a high interest rate to farmers who still had their stock intact. The federal government eventually gave first $20,000 and then $50,000 in relief aid for those affected by the fire. ALWAYS LISTENING AND ACTING ON YOUR CONCERNS As your Councillor, I always welcome your keen input and ideas on how we can sustain and improve Stittsville. Please contact our office anytime by phone at 613-580-2476 or by e-mail at Shad.Qadri@ottawa.ca. I also encourage you to follow me on Twitter and on Facebook.

EMC events – Hannah Harlow-Maillet of Stittsville was among 127 children who enjoyed ice cream as they watched the sun come up aboard an Air Canada flight staffed by a pirate crew as they made their way to the “happiest place on earth.” And if that sounds like the start of the best day ever, it only got better as the annual Dreams Take Flight Ottawa trip to Walt Disney World in Orlando, Fla. touched down shortly after 9 a.m. on Sept. 25. By 10:30 a.m., children who might never have had the chance to visit the theme park could barely contain their excitement – eager to experience everything Disney had to offer. The day began bright and early at 4 a.m., as parents and children arrived at Ottawa’s Canada Reception Centre, where the prime minister and other dignitaries fly from, in anticipation of the 5:30 a.m. flight. Once inside the hangar, all were greeted by nearly 100 smiling Dreams Take Flight Ottawa volunteers who turned what could have been a chaotic scene into a sea of excitement and organization. Each child and volunteer received a uniform to wear on the trip. Children received white Tshirts, red hats, black shorts and Crocs. Volunteers received a white hat, white shirt, black shorts/capris and Crocs. “This is just incredible,” said first-time Dreams trip volunteer Nida Kealey. “We are going to have such fun.” She recalled how her now 18-year-old autistic son went on a Disney trip with the organization nine years ago and

it was the best thing he could have done. He has since travelled on a plane 10 times and she credits the Dreams trip with giving him the confidence to do whatever he set his mind to. Since October 1995, Dreams Take Flight Ottawa has given children with physical, mental or social challenges an incredible day where they can be carefree and make memories to last forever. A total of nine hours was spent at Disney World including meals and shopping time. Dreams Take Flight Ottawa uses specific criteria to select children for the trip. Among the criteria, children with special needs must represent various agencies, be between the ages of six and 12 and have never visited a Disney theme park before. Making special memories happen is not cheap. This year’s trip cost $195,000 and would not have been possible without assistance from organizations like Air Canada, which donated the plane for the trip and Shell, which donated the fuel. The Air Canada pilots and flight crew for the trip also donated their time, taking a vacation day to be part of the magical experience that not only included dressing up for the flight but also coming to the park later in the day to enjoy the rides. Other corporate sponsors like Mark’s, Crocs and Bentley stepped up again to assist with clothing, shoes and backpacks for volunteers and children. And even more sponsors support the trip and the charity in other ways. Dreams Take Flight is a 100-per-cent voluntary run organization. Various fundraising events held over the course of the

year help top off coffers so everything is paid for on the trip. Children also received spending money to bring home a special Disney souvenir. For some parents, the trip marked the first time their children were either away from them or travelling to the United States without them. But, the fear of having a child gone for nearly 24 hours was not greater than their desire for them to have the experience of a lifetime. Dunrobin’s Laura Taffinder, 8, was recommended for the trip by the teacher at her school in Kanata. “She is very, very excited,” said her mom Tracy Taffinder, who said she was not nervous about her daughter travelling without her. “I am so excited for her. It really is the chance of a lifetime.” Laura even managed to get a full night’s sleep before the flight, with mom having no trouble waking her up bright

and early. This year’s trip to Disney World featured a number of siblings sharing the magical experience. Among them were sisters Shaily and Feyah Turner of Orleans. “We are very excited,” 12-year-old Shaily said on the plane, noting the sisters couldn’t wait to ride the popular Splash Mountain ride. “We have been looking it up (on) the computer for quite a while.” The first rides chosen by groups the minute they walked through Disney’s gates were either Splash Mountain or Space Mountain, and they were revisited frequently throughout the day. While the water ride sends riders hurling down a 15-metre water drop and the other is a roller coaster ride in the dark, the screams heard were not of fear but excitement. See DREAMS, page 23

As the day went on, the smiles got wider. While most of the children on the trip were English, a number of French youngsters enjoyed themselves as well. One of those was Denisha Poulain Levasseur. She had a great time driving a race car on the Speedway ride and she kept saying she could not believe she was doing it. For some volunteers, this

year’s trip likely marked their last with the organization. “It has been awesome. The kids are great. We’ve had a great group today,” said 2012 Dreams Take Flight Ottawa president Nicole Banville midway through the Disney World trip day.

This stone Munster United Church was a Methodist Church when it opened, becoming the Munster United Church at the time of Church Union in 1925. The congregation itself, though, traces its roots back to 1823.

After nine hours at Walt Disney World in Orlando, Florida, enoying rides such as Splash Mountain and the Thunder Mountain roller coaster, the Dreams Take Flight airplane ride back from Orlando to Ottawa on Tuesday, Sept. 25 saw many of the 127 youngsters on the trip drift off to sleep, like Hannah Harlow-Maillet of Stittsville has done.

Her husband Mike, the organization’s vice president, has been on five trips to Disney World and he said the experience is very gratifying. As the day wound its way to a close, and all the rides has been thoroughly ridden, children and volunteers made their way to Disney World’s famous Main Street for some souvenir shopping. Each child received $30 to find that special memento of a day not to be forgotten anytime soon. The group arrived back at the hangar at Orlando International Airport and boarded the steps to the waiting plane before the 9 p.m. takeoff. While the trip down to Florida had been filled with the sounds of excited children, the return trip was much quieter and many huddled down in the first class sleeper bunks to dream about the incredible day that had become reality. Once back inside the Canada Reception Centre, each child received a donated Bentley backpack filled with gifts to mark celebrating their special day. From there, they were ushered into the main part of the hangar where a red carpet was rolled out and parents waited eagerly for their children. “This was the best day ever,” one child was overheard telling his parents. No doubt, a sentiment shared between many other parents and children as they reunited after a long, exhausting but thrilling day.

EMC news - How does $1 become $6? Easy. Just donate the money to the Rotary Club of Ottawa – Stittsville to support Rotary’s End Polio Now campaign. That’s right! A one dollar donation can grow to six dollars thanks to a couple of commitments that have been made. First of all, the Rotary Club of Ottawa – Stittsville has committed to matching the first $1,600 donated by members of the public to the End Polio Now campaign. So, your $100, for instance, is now $200. But there’s more. The federal government, through the Canadian International Development Agency (CIDA), will match any donations made to Rotary for this

cause. So, the $200 now becomes $400. And, on top of this, the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation has made the same offer, so add another $200 to those Rotary funds, bringing the total to $600. That’s how a $100 initial donation, for instance, becomes $600. All donations of $20 or more will be issued an income tax receipt as well. Those wishing to donate to help eradicate polio in the world once and for all should send cheques to 28 Renshaw Avenue, Stittsville, Ont. K2S 1G9. The cheques should be made payable to the Rotary Club of Ottawa – Stittsville. For more information, please contact Rotary Club member Leo Maiorino at 613371-6975.

EMC news - Her oil painting entitled “Pink Lake, Gatineau Park” follows in the best traditions of classic Canadian landscape art. Now hanging in the “Fall Fantasy” exhibition at the Ottawa West Arts Association (owaa) gallery at the Goulbourn Recreation Complex (GRC) in Stittsville, this painting by owaa member Jan Inniss not only depicts the Canadian landscape in what is now virtually a recognized national style, as it were, but also follows what has become her evolving style of painting scenes which are relaxing and restful. Ms. Inniss was an art enthusiast when she was young and took up watercolour painting in the 1980’s but found that she had no time to pursue it. However, when she retired, things changed. She took classes and tried her hand at both oils and acrylics. Her subjects vary between landscapes and florals, although she will also do portraits and other subjects.

“I’ll try anything,” she says. She admits that nowadays her art has improved as she feels that she sees scenes more clearly. “I see things better,” she says, noting that she often works from a photograph that she has taken at a scene. Ms. Inniss says that she is not painting as much now as she used to when she was part of a painting group with the late Angela Kilby of Kanata. But she always has ideas in mind about possible paintings. And although she is currently not taking any courses, she says that she is always learning things about painting. Her painting “Pink Lake, Gatineau Park” is one of the 27 pieces of art, mostly paintings, which are no on display in the current “Fall Fantasy” exhibition at the owaa gallery at the GRC. This exhibition will be on display through until Saturday, Oct. 27. Located on two walls in the foyer of the GRC, the owaa gallery is open for viewing whenever the GRC facility itself is open.

Students do murals Special to the News

EMC news - Three agriculturally-related murals done by South Carleton High School students were erected inside the agricultural awareness building (old curling club) at the Richmond fairgrounds for this year’s annual Richmond Fair. The these large murals featured rural scenes as indicated by their titles: The Large Corn Mural, The Cows and The Corn Field. Students worked voluntarily to produce these murals, qualifying for community service hours for their efforts. A number of community service hours are required before students can graduate from high school.

The students worked both after school and during exam week at the end of the last school year to do these murals. And these will not be the last murals done by South Carleton students for the interior of this agricultural awareness building. There are many more that will be required in the coming years as the idea of the Richmond Agricultural Society, hosts of the Richmond Fair, is to have such rural-related murals line the interior walls of the agricultural awareness building. South Carleton High School students who worked on these murals this year are Rebekka Stiller, Breanna Leger, Anya Hutchings and Allanah Alibhai.

‘Coast to Coast’ at library John Curry john.curry@metroland.com

EMC news - Songs of the sea will ring out through the Stittsville branch of the Ottawa Public Library this Saturday, Oct. 13. The Goulbourn Male Chorus is presenting a one hour program that will journey musically across Canada, going from coast to coast. In fact, that is the program’s name: “Coast to Coast.”Familiar tunes from both the east and west coasts of Canada will provide a nautical backdrop to the performance, with water something of a theme throughout the event, not only because of the East Coast and West Coast music but also because the Central Canada portion of the program will feature the poetry of Pauline Johnson with “The Song My Paddle Sings” featured. The area just inside the library’s main door is going to be the “stage” for this performance by the Goulbourn Male Chorus, bringing another water feature into play as the branch’s aquarium with its fish is located in this area. A number of books with nautical themes are going to be on display in view of the performance area, adding a literary aspect to this “Coast to Coast” program. Goulbourn Male Chorus members Leo Mevel, Art van Draanen and Bob Major will all have storytelling roles to play during the program. Mr. Mevel will provide a narrative on the East Coast song “I’se the B’y that Builds the Boat” while Mr. van Draanen will give the story behind “Jack Was Every Inch A Sailor.”

Bob Major will introduce the song “My Paddle’s Keen and Bright,” during which he may just have a canoe paddle in hand as a prop. This nautical, watery theme to the program will go along with the nautical theme which is evident on the library’s Art Space wall this month, with three works by Stittsville artist Gerard Smith on display, each of which is clearly nautical in nature – two paintings of the Bluenose under full sale as well as a third painting showing a buoy in the Bay of Fundy. This Saturday’s program is geared to families, so everyone is invited to attend, especially children. It will wind up with a rousing audience participation piece, “This land was made for you and me.”This program will be taking place from 3 p.m. to 4 p.m. at the library. There will be a display of sailing related items laid out – rope, sailors’ tools, rigging, an anchor chain, a wind speed gauge, examples of rope work and more, adding to the nautical nature of the performance. The song “My Paddle/Dip, Dip,” an action song where children will be encouraged to pretend to be paddling to the beat of the song, will also be part of the program. This musical and education program by the Goulbourn Male Chorus at the Stittsville library this Saturday, Oct. 13 will start its musical/poetic journey on the East Coast. And no song is more “East Coast” than “I’se the B’ye that Builds the Boat.” The audience, both young and old, will be taught the refrain for this iconic Newfoundland folk song which promises to be a fun experience.

“Jack Was Every Inch A Sailor” will round out this East Coast portion of the program. It will then be on to Central Canada for the song “Land of the Silver Birch” followed by Pauline Johnson’s poem “The Song My Paddle Sings.” The paddle song with its associated actions will wind up this portion of the program. It will then be a quick flight to the West Coast with the Goulbourn Male Chorus singing “Hunker Down.” A windup joint effort by

the chorus and the audience on “This land was made for you and me” will end the hour-long program which will take everyone from “Coast to Coast” across the country, all in one hour and without ever leaving Stittsville. Now that’s something worth experiencing. And everyone is certainly invited to attend this free program and get to enjoy this cross-country musical trip, all without ever physically leaving the confines of the Stittsville library.

Bluenose paintings on Art Space wall at library john.curry@metroland.com

EMC news - The Bluenose is an iconic Canadian symbol. It has been profiled on the Canadian dime since 1937. It has been on Canadian postage stamps. And now this month two paintings of the Bluenose under full sail are part of the exhibit of the art of Gerald Smith of Stittsville that is featured on the Art Space wall at the Stittsville branch of the Ottawa Public Library. Each month the work of a different local artist is featured on the Art Space wall and this month it is the work of Gerald Smith.

Best known perhaps for his large paintings of heads, Mr. Smith is also known for his seascapes. And the art on display at the library this month falls into this category. There are two large paintings of the Bluenose under sail, with a wave exploding at its bow. One is entitled “The Bluenose passing by,” an oil on canvas. The other Bluenose painting is also an oil on canvas, entitled “Between Sea and Sky: The Bluenose.” They are joined in the exhibit by another oil on canvas painting entitled “Flood Tide, Bay of Fundy” which features a buoy floating in the water,

with seven birds flying past in the background. While these three paintings on hanging on the Art Space Wall, the associated display cabinet features two smaller paintings by Mr. Smith. One, an oil on panel entitled “Half Moon Light, Nova Scotia” depicts waves crashing on shore with a lighthouse in the far distance. The other is an oil on canvas painting of a white lighthouse under a blue sky, called “Baccaro Light, Nova Scotia.” The display cabinet also includes an old photograph of sailors as well as a newspaper clipping about the refitting and re-launch of the Bluenose

Fourth birthday party and art sale at gallery ing Committee to investigate possible exhibit space in the community was formed. Members included Sue Perley-Robertson, John Madden, Louise Barker, Beverly Ashford and Gerard Smith, with Terry Sametz as a consultant. In Dec. 2007, the committee became the GRC Gallery X Steering Committee whose efforts resulted in the formation of the Ottawa West Arts Association (owaa) in May 2008 involving the committee, a group of local artists and a number of community residents. The owaa began planning for an exhibition space for the visual arts in the phase two expansion of the GRC. This exhibition space was named the owaa gallery and opened on Nov. 1, 2008. This new visual arts exhibition space is meant to increase the awareness, appreciation and promotion of the visual arts in the community.

Special to the News

EMC news - Everyone loves a birthday party. And that’s why you should mark down Saturday, Nov. 3 on your calendar and plan to attend the fourth birthday party and art sale of the Ottawa West Arts Association (owaa) gallery at the Goulbourn Recreation Complex (GRC) on Shea Road in Stittsville. There will be cake and ice cream as well as live music and a children’s craft table. There will be door prizes being given away as well. For art lovers, there will be art for sale and a number of artists will be in attendance to discuss their work. It’s all happening on Saturday, Nov. 3 from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. Everyone is most welcome to attend and have some fun as the owaa gallery marks its fourth birthday. The story of the owaa gallery at the GRC goes back to Nov. 2007 when a Stittsville Steer-

II at Lunenburg, Nova Scotia recently. The Bluenose II was first launched in 1963. The display cabinet also includes a copy of the book “Bluenose Master: Memories of Captain Ernest K. Hartling.” The original Bluenose schooner, built in 1921, won fame in a racing career in which she defeated the fastest American schooners at that time. The Bluenose was undefeated in racing through until 1938. Stittsville artist Gerald

Smith earned his Bachelor of Fine Arts degree at Mount Allison University in Sackville, New Brunswick. He then went on to earn his Masters Degree at the University of Saskatchewan. Over his career, he has had numerous solo exhibitions of his work as well as participating in various group exhibitions at such locations as the Foyer Gallery in Nepean, the Kanata Civic Gallery, Ottawa city hall, the Ottawa School of Art, the Rosemont Gallery in Regina, the Mendel Art

Gallery in Saskatoon and the Maritime Art Association in Fredericton, New Brunswick. He was one of the founding members of the Ottawa West Arts Association gallery in Stittsville and is a member of the Foyer Gallery in Nepean and the Kanata Civic Gallery in Kanata. He has participated in both the Stittsville Artists’ Studio Tour and the Kanata Artists’ Studio Tour. Mr. Smith’s website can be found at www. geraldsmithartstudio.com .

Stittsville News EMC - Thursday, October 11, 2012 33

NEWS There is a lot of Casino talk around Ottawa these days. Many of you may recall the debate in the 1990’s about whether or not the former City of Ottawa should put a casino on Sparks Street. At the same time, the City of Gloucester was moving one step ahead, permitting the installation of Slots at the Rideau Carleton Raceway. A few of the folks around back then are looking to revisit the debate and are again looking to have a casino downtown. The problem with that is that it would come at the expense of the Rideau Carleton Raceway and its 1,000 local jobs. The real issue here is the Ontario Lottery and Gaming Commission (OLG) and their “modernization” plans. Their plans call for one gaming facility per each of their 29 zones across Ontario. Of course, they created the “Gaming Zones” and when browsing them it is pretty clear that the goal will be to close rural facilities in favour of opening new facilities in urban cores. This is clear in Kitchener/Waterloo, Milton/Georgetown, Kingston, and right here in Ottawa. The OLG has even said publicly on multiple occasions that they want their gaming facilities where the people are and it doesn’t take more than a short drive down Albion Road to see how the OLG can use the “where the people are” argument against Rideau Carleton. In my mind, the OLG desires a casino in downtown Ottawa and I’m not sure how much say we really have in that. At City Hall though, the story is that this is just the beginning and we will be consulted on the location and then the final decision will rest with us. Personally, I do not trust the OLG to pursue anything but a downtown casino. It is for this reason that I cannot support any current motions regarding a future gaming facility in Ottawa. The OLG was less than committal in their desire to consider RCR as an option for a future casino expansion and they did not rule out any zoning amendment appeals should Council vote against their final proposal. To be clear, I am not against the idea of a casino in downtown Ottawa but I am against closing the RCR as a means to get one. Anyone who knows me knows that I hate being wrong, but in this instance, I would be more than happy for the OLG to prove me wrong in the end.

Mid-Term Town Halls The town halls are continuing this week with the previously announced meetings in Manotick and Beckett’s Landing. Next week, you can find me in North Gower at the Alfred Taylor Recreation Centre on Thursday, October 18th from 7-9pm.

Scaring is Caring at Saunders Farm A year ago, a good friend of mine and colleague, Allan Hubley, lost his son. Since that time, Councillor Hubley has worked closely with the Youth Services Bureau to raise awareness and promote acceptance. Please join Jamie’s family and friends as they Celebrate Acceptance at the” Scaring is Caring” event at Saunders Farm. The Saunders Farm family will donate $5 from every admission ticket sold either pre-sale online or at the admission booth at the farm on the 12th of October, with proceeds going to the Youth Services Bureau of Ottawa. The event will be held from 6:00pm to 10:00pm at the farm located at 7893 Bleeks Road in Munster. If you can’t make it out, please go to the Saunders Farm website and help honour Jamie’s memory by making a donation to the YSB Foundation.

9 RUN RUN is FUN FUN John Curry

john.curry@metroland.com

EMC news - It’s called 9 RUN RUN but it could also be called 9 FUN FUN because there’s lots of fun to be hand, not only running and walking but also all the other activity that will be going on at this third annual event in Stittsville on Saturday, Oct. 20. There will be a chili cook off, a BBQ, live music and lots to eat. Representatives of all three of the emergency services involved in this event – the police, fire and paramedics – will be competing for the best chili designation in the Chiefs’ Chili Cook Off. Joe Miccucci of the Ottawa Paramedic Service, who won this Chili Cook Off at the inaugural 9 RUN RUN event in 2010, will be back and you know that his chili is great. The Ottawa Police Services has recruited city of Ottawa councillor and former restaurateur Eli El-Chantiry, chair of the Ottawa Police Services Board, as its representative in the Chili Cook Off. And the Ottawa Fire Service is right in there too, with Gerry Pingitore, winner of last year’s Chili Cook Off, back, apparently with a new and improved chili. It’s going to be quite a competition this year. Brown’s Your Independent Grocer has generously agreed to provide all of the ingredients required for this Chili Cook Off. And there’s going to be plenty of chili to eat thanks to Scrumptious Catering of Stittsville which is providing enough chili to serve 500 people. The chili has been a big hit with 9 RUN RUN participants in the past but the challenge has always been to have enough to go around. Now, thanks to Scrumptious Catering, there’s going to be lots of chili for people

to enjoy. Members of the Rotary Club of Ottawa – Stittsville will be back at the event again this year, providing face painting which youngsters all love. There will be a BBQ hosted by the Hobbs family farm and McDonald’s. And Tim Hortons will be back as well, helping out. Live music will be in the air thanks to Stittsville’s own “Just Us” along with music provided by BOB-FM. And then there’s all the fun from the running. Indeed, there’s something for everyone. There’s a 10K Run which is already sold out; there’s a 3K run that is close to selling out; there’s a half marathon that has already attracted more than last year with time for registration still to go; and there’s the 3K Nesbitt Burns Family Fun Run. Registration for these races closes on Tuesday, Oct. 16 or earlier if the cap numbers are reached. The starting line on Saturday, Oct. 20 is going to be busy from 8 a.m. right through to 10 a.m. The Bushtukah half marathon walkers will be setting off at 8 a.m. The 10K runners and also walkers will head out at 9 a.m. while the half marathon runners will be off at 9:15 a.m. The 3K Nesbitt burns Family Fun Run participants will leave the starting line at 10 a.m. Race kit pickup for the participants is being held again this year at Bushtukah at the Grant Crossing shopping area on Hazeldean Road. These pick up dates and times are Thursday, Oct. 18 from 5 p.m. to 9 p.m. and Friday, Oct. 19 from 1 p.m. to 9 p.m. The runners will love crossing the finish line, not only for the sense of satisfaction that they will have and also the satis-

faction from raising money for a worthy cause but also because awaiting them at this finish line will be bananas, bagels, chocolate milk and more, all thanks to the generosity of Sobey’s. Water stations along the route of these runs and walks are being sponsored this year by Coldwell Banker and Holitzner Homes. And runners will also be able to have a massage at the end of their runs thanks to Stittsville Main Street Physiotherapy. How good is that! The rallying point for this 9 RUN RUN event on Saturday, Oct. 20 is Sacred Heart Catholic High School at the corner of Abbott Street and Shea Road in Stittsville. The event is happening again this year thanks to the support and input from city of Ottawa Stittsville ward councillor Shad Qadri and the city of Ottawa’s police, fire and paramedic services. There are also hundreds of volunteers involved. As volunteer coordinator Karen Von Jagow says, “Volunteers don’t just do the work – they make it work.” There will be some traffic disruptions and detours in place to accommodate the runners and walkers. Motorists are asked to try to avoid Stittsville Main Street and Abbott Street on this particular Saturday. It’s all for a good cause. Last year this 9 RUN RUN event raised $25,911.11 in support of Do It For Daron and the Royal Ottawa’s youth mental health awareness study and early intervention research project. Do It For Daron is a youth-driven program focused on raising awareness and inspiring conversations about youth mental health. This year’s 9 RUN RUN event will once again be going to support the Do It For Daron program and the Royal Ottawa’s youth mental health campaign.

Thanksgiving weekend is good to Stittsville Royals - two victories at GRC John Curry john.curry@metroland.com

EMC sports - The Stittsville Royals followed up a Friday night loss in Arnprior with two home ice victories on Sunday and Thanksgiving Monday. The Eastern Ontario Junior Hockey League team had lost 6-4 to the hometown Arnprior Packers in Arnprior last Friday. The game was tied 1-1 after the opening period but the Pack-

ers struck for three unanswered goals in the second period to open up a 4-1 lead going into the third period. The Royals scored three goals in the third period but the Packers had two goals to emerge with a 6-4 win. Scott Barnes, Kyle Drisdelle, Tim McDonnell and Alex Hulford scored for the Royals in this game. Earning assists were Brandon Lee with two, Kyle Drisdelle, Tim McDonnell, Michael Kalyn and Scott Barnes.

The Royals returned to the friendly conďŹ nes of the Goulbourn Recreation Complex for two Thanksgiving weekend games, both of which turned out to be victories. Last Sunday, the Royals beat the visiting Ottawa West Golden Knights 4-3 on goals by Michael Di Bello, Alex Hulford, Ryan Bochert and Matt Kadolph. Assists went to Ryan Dube, Nate Blenkarn, Aaron Hickie, Brandon Lee and Kevin Groulx.

On Thanksgiving Monday afternoon, the Royals entertained the visiting Perth Blue Wings. The game ended up tied 2-2, forcing a shootout. In this shootout, the Royals shooters Kevin Groulx and Michael Di Bello both scored while the Perth snipers were blanked, giving the Royals the 3-2 shootout victory. Scoring for the Royals in the game were Michael Kalyn and Michael Di Bello. Assists were earned by Corey Drisdale and Ryan Dube.

Fun with pies, balloons Special to the News

JOHN BRUMMELL/METROLAND

Munster Elementary School grade five student Trent Wallace takes aim with a water-filled balloon at the celebration marking the school’s surpassing its fundraising goal for its recent Terry Fox Run.

EMC news - When a goal is surpassed, it’s time for a celebration. And when the goal is surpassed by over five times, well, that’s a time for a grand celebration. And for students, there is probably no better way to celebrate something than by having a chance to take dead aim and tossing a water balloon at a defenseless teacher (or even principal) or being able to plop a whipped cream pie on the face of a teacher. All in good fun, mind you, but what fun! This is what happened at Munster Elementary School on Tuesday afternoon, Oct. 2. Students were able to throw waterfilled balloons at a lineup of teachers standing defenseless against one of the

school’s walls. Some students also had the opportunity to take a whipped cream pie and introduce it to the face of a teacher. It was great fun, especially for the students but the teachers also seemed to enjoy being part of such an enjoyable experience by the students. And, of course, it was all for a good cause as this was the reward offered to the students if the school was able to surpass its goal of $271 raised for the Terry Fox Foundation at its recent Terry Fox Run on Thursday, Sept. 27 which was Terry Fox National School Run Day in Canada. The school not only surpassed this $271 goal but it smashed it, raising over five times the amount, with a final total of $1,453 raised. What an accomplishment!

Something for everyone at Complete Athletics on Iber John Curry john.curry@metroland.com

EMC news - It really does live up to its name – Complete Athletics. This fitness gym that is part of the offerings at the Complete Hockey Development Centre on Iber Road in Stittsville provides individually customized programs for all levels of fitness. “We cover all the bases and there is something for everyone here,” says Chris Smith, the head strength and conditioning coach at Complete Athletics. What it all means is that Complete Athletics, as a sport conditioning centre with coaches who have “been there, done that,” can help any person at any level of fitness to improve. And this is done not with fitness machines but with active, movement oriented conditioning. This can take the form of small group training or personal training. Clients are asked to provide pertinent information so that Complete Athletics can place the person in an appropriate class or with an appropriate personal trainer. This allows for the personalization of the class program or the personal training. Class sizes at Complete Athletics are limited in order to ensure an optimal training environment for all participants. Chris Smith, who has 20 years in the fitness business, says that one hour a day working out will definitely increase a person’s quality of life. But

at Complete Athletics, this involves using your body and its movements rather than using a piece of equipment. “Your body is the ultimate machine,” Mr. Smith says in explaining why it is preferable to concentrate on body movement and function rather than a fitness machine. Machine based fitness is body building in his view whereas the Complete Athletics approach is athletic conditioning. Your body is meant to move, he says, adding that at Complete Athletics, participants are taught how to move the body properly for maximum fitness benefit. That’s why what would normally be called a gym is called an “athletic conditioning centre” at Complete Athletics. And coaches are there at every group class, ensuring that participants are showing the correct form for all of the movements. Every exercise must be done correctly for maximum benefit. Complete Athletics is also located right beside West Physio, all under the same Complete Hockey Development Centre roof. West Physio provides quality injury care services. This means that between the two of them, West Physio and Complete Athletics, this is a “one stop shop” where any rehabilitation can be handled, with the person returning to health and fitness under the watchful eye of experts in both therapy and conditioning. And you will be able to discover and learn about Complete Athletics for yourself at an upcoming meet-and-greet

open house at the facility at 145 Iber Road on Sunday, Oct. 28 from 1 p.m. to 4 p.m. Everyone is welcome to attend and check out the Complete Athletics facility and speak with Mr. Smith and other trainers and coaches, learning about the Complete Athletics approach to fitness and how it can help you. More about Complete Athletics can be found at the website www.completeathletics. ca . The phone number for Complete Athletics is 613796-2479.

Parade of Lights Nov. 24 Police messages John Curry

Special to the News

EMC news - It’s only six weeks away, the highlight of the year in Stittsville. The annual Stittsville Parade of Lights. Every year crowds line Stittsville Main Street from Carp Road through to Carleton Cathcart Street as lighted floats make their way along the street, generating smiles of amazement among both young and old. This year this annual Parade of Lights is happening on Saturday, Nov. 24, starting at 6:30 p.m. Hosted by the Stittsville Village Association (SVA), registration is now open for entries. There is no entry fee and even

last minute floats are welcomed but early registration helps the SVA better organize the event and plan for the number of floats. Indications are from inquiries already received by the SVA that there will be a number of new participants again this year. This could make this year’s Parade of Lights the biggest and best ever. Those requiring information about the parade or wishing to register a float should contact SVA president Marilyn Jenkins at jenkinsdm1@rogers.com . In addition, the SVA is also looking for volunteers to look after the barricades that are placed along Stittsville Main Street

for the parade, blocking vehicle access onto Stittsville Main Street from the side streets. These barricades will be in place from 5:15 p.m. to about 7:45 p.m. Those who look after the barricades have quite a bonus – they get marvelous front row seats for the parade when it passed by their barricade location. All of the barricades have to be staffed with volunteers or else the parade cannot go ahead. So these are important and vital positions that need to be filled. Anyone who would like to volunteer in this capacity should contact SVA president Marilyn Jenkins at jenkinsdm1@ rogers.com .

EMC news - Reporting suspicious activity and following common sense procedures like looking vehicles and homes are two ways of preventing neighbourhood crime. These are two of the messages which Rideau-Goulbourn/West Carleton community police officer Arun Daniels of the Ottawa Police Service delivered to those at the Richmond Village Association’s meeting on Tuesday, Oct. 2 in Richmond. “We encourage people to report any suspicious activity,” constable Daniels said. He also urged that people should take a common sense approach to prevent crime, such as locking vehicles and homes. He reported that there were about half a dozen thefts from vehicles reported in Richmond

reported to police in September, most of them happening from unlocked vehicles. Constable Daniels also mentioned that the Ottawa Police Service offers a number of crime prevention programs such as a program for businesses, a free home security inspection program and the Neighbourhood Watch program. He said that the police encourages residents to report criminal incidents so that the police knows what is going on where and can allocate its resources to combat these problems. He said that this should even include speeding on a street. Constable Daniels is the new community police officer for the Rideau-Goulbourn and West Carleton areas. He has been with the Ottawa Police Service for eight years and prior to that he was a police officer in the United Kingdom for five years.

Councillor Moffatt’s ward meetings Special to the News

EMC news - Ashton and Country Club Village are the next two Goulbourn stops on city of Ottawa Rideau-Goulbourn ward councillor Scott Moffatt’s ongoing series of town hall meetings being held throughout his ward.

Grand opening ribbon cutting John Curry john.curry@metroland.com

INTEGRITY UPDATE: TRANSPARENCY AND OPENNESS AT CITY HALL By Jim Watson

http://www.JimWatsonOttawa.ca

During the 2010 election, I committed to an integrity package – a set of proposals that would bring a new level of transparency and openness to City Hall. 3OME OF THE PROPOSALS WERE THINGS THAT EXIST IN OTHER MUNICIPALITIES or at the provincial or federal level. However, the difference was that there were no scandals or conicts driving these changes in Ottawa. The integrity package was about establishing a fundamental system of accountability where nothing before EXISTED ,EADERSHIP ON THESE ISSUES MEANS BEING PROACTIVE NOT reactive. Working together, we are establishing the checks and BALANCES THAT CITIZENS EXPECT OF THEIR ELECTED OFlCIALS I am pleased to update you on the progress we have made. OfďŹ ce Expenses /NE OF OUR lRST ACTS OF OFlCE WAS TO BEGIN POSTING OUR OFlCE EXPENSES ONLINE TO SHOW TAXPAYERS HOW THEIR MONEY IS BEING spent. Every month, you can visit ottawa.ca to see how Members OF #OUNCIL AND SENIOR MANAGEMENT ARE SPENDING THEIR OFlCE budgets. Integrity Commissioner In August, we appointed an Integrity Commissioner, Robert -ARLEAU -R -ARLEAU HAS YEARS OF PARLIAMENTARY EXPERIENCE including 13 years spent as the Clerk of the House of Commons. He has also served as the interim Privacy Commissioner of Canada and as the Information Commissioner of Canada. The Integrity Commissioner’s role is to act as a resource for Members of Council on integrity issues, as well as to make recommendations to City Council about accountability measures. Lobbyist Registry

EMC news - It might have set the record for the longest red ribbon ever cut at a grand opening of a Stittsville business. The ribbon stretched from the front to the rear of the IM Pilates Studio in the Shops of Main Street plaza in Stittsville. It ran past the Studio’s specialized professional grade Pilates equipment and across the Studio’s cork oor open area where the basic principles of Pilates such as good form, stability and proper breathing are taught using mats and sometimes props like a foam roller which strengthens muscles and the so-called “magic circleâ€? which can be used to work out either the upper or lower body. But despite its length, it cut just like any other grand opening red ribbon, with city of Ottawa Stittsville ward councillor Shad Qadri doing the honours, assisted by IM Pilates Studio owner Isabella Moroz and Stittsville Village Association (SVA) president Marilyn Jenkins. The studio had already been open a couple of weeks with group classes beginning a couple of days before this Sept. 13 grand opening. Councillor Qadri, in his remarks at the grand opening, welcomed Isabella Moroz and her new business to the community, calling it another great addition to the Stittsville business community. He praised Ms. Moroz for her vision in establishing this Pilates Studio, the ďŹ rst in the community. SVA president Marilyn Jenkins said that this new Pilates Studio will help promote a healthy community. In her remarks at the grand opening, owner Isabella Mo-

City of Ottawa Stittsville ward councillor Shad Qadri, centre, cuts the ribbon at the recent grand opening of the new IM Pilates Studio in Stittsville, flanked by IM Pilates Studio owner and instructor Isabella Moroz, left, and Stittsville Village Association president Marilyn Jenkins, right. roz noted the wonderful response which the business had already received in the community, with people interested and happy to see such a facility in the community. “Pilates is ageless and is for everyone,� she said, adding that Pilates is complementary to everything else physically that a person does, whether it be yoga, cycling, running or whatever. She noted the great interest being shown in the Studio’s classes for beginners. “People want to try it,� she said about Pilates, adding that with this facility now in Stittsville, people do not have to go outside the community to experience Pilates. Isabella Moroz has instructed Pilates in studios across Ottawa but decided to open her own studio in Stitts-

ville because she wanted to be in a community setting. In addition, she knows that Stittsville is a fast growing community and that having a handy Pilates location right in the community will be appealing to many. Isabella derives much satisfaction from her instruction work with Pilates because her clients inevitably experience beneďŹ cial results and so this makes her job extremely satisfying. Pilates, which was pioneered by the late Joseph Pilates, is a mind-body exercise system designed to strengthen the weak and to challenge the strong. Pilates exercises help both men and woman develop optimal strength, exibility, endurance and posture without building bulk or stressing joints. Pilates exercises tone the body and allow a person

to feel revitalized and to move with ease. Pilates builds core strength and stability, improves posture and alignment, increases exibility, balance and coordination, improves muscular balance and strength, increases endurance and muscular tone, heightens body awareness, enhances athletic performance and can relieve stress and back pain. A Pilates workout is gentle and controlled with no sudden jarring actions. A qualiďŹ ed, experienced instructor like Isabella will ensure that the Pilates movements are being done correctly and are geared to a person’s physical abilities and limitations. IM Pilates Studio can be contacted at 613-435-9002 or via email at info@impilatesstudio.com .

Part of my day as Mayor and that of your City Councillor is meeting with various individuals who are legitimately seeking to change or implement a particular policy or by-law. Until recently, there WAS NO WAY FOR CITIZENS TO KNOW WHO #ITY OFlCIALS WERE MEETING with or on what topics. Our new Lobbyist Registry changes this. A lobbyist is an individual who is paid to represent a business OR lNANCIAL INTEREST !NY TIME THEY COMMUNICATE WITH A PUBLIC OFlCE HOLDER THEY MUST REGISTER THEIR COMMUNICATION WITHIN 15 days. In turn, citizens are be able to visit the City website at ottawa.ca/lobbyist TO SEE WHO THEIR ELECTED OFlCIALS ARE MEETING with and about which issues. 4HE REGISTRY IS THE lRST OF ITS KIND IN THE MUNICIPAL SECTOR IN #ANADA and stands on the principle that public policy should be made PUBLICLY 4HE ,OBBYIST 2EGISTRY CLEARLY DElNES LOBBYING ACTIVITIES and advocacy work. It also omits advocacy activities by not-forPROlT GROUPS LIKE COMMUNITY ASSOCIATIONS Next Steps I am proud of the progress we have made, but there is still more to do. Our new Integrity Commissioner will soon oversee the CREATION OF A CODE OF CONDUCT EXPENSE POLICY AND GIFTS REGISTRY FOR Members of Council. These will provide additional transparency, AND SET THE GROUND RULES FOR HOW WE EXPECT OUR ELECTED OFlCIALS to conduct themselves.

First-ever Pilates-A-Thon in Stittsville John Curry john.curry@metroland.com

EMC news - Whether you are a Pilates rookie or a seasoned Pilates lover, here’s your chance to help out with youth mental health while also enjoying Pilates under the tutelage of several guest instructors. It’s a first-ever event taking place in Stittsville, specifically at the recently opened IM Pilates Studio at the Shops

of Main Street plaza on Stittsville Main Street at Carp Road. It’s a Pilates-A-Thon with Pilates classes running every half hour on both Saturday afternoon, Oct. 13 and Sunday afternoon, Oct. 14. And the classes are geared both to those who might be new to Pilates as well as those who are experienced Pilates advocates. The classes will be short 25 to 30 minute Pilates mat classes. A number of guest Pilates

instructors from different Pilates studios across Ottawa are volunteering their time to be part of this Pilates-A-Thon. So this is a great opportunity to be exposed to different teaching styles and instructor personalities. The classes, which will run every half hour during the Pilates-A-Thon, will be by donation, with a suggested contribution of $10 per class. And all of the funds donated will be going to benefit the

upcoming 9 RUN RUN Emergency Services Run that is also taking place in Stittsville. This 9 RUN RUN Emergency Services Run, which involves the organizational efforts of the city of Ottawa’s police, fire and paramedic services, is taking place on Saturday, Oct. 20 with a half marathon, 10K run and 3K run, all geared to raise funds for the Do It For Daron youth mental health initiative and the Royal Ottawa’s youth mental health awareness study and early intervention research project. This means that by taking part in this Pilates-A-Thon, you can not only learn about Pilates or further develop your passion for Pilates but also you can help out this upcoming fundraising event geared to improving youth mental health programs in the Ottawa area. The Pilates-A-Thon is tak-

ing place this Saturday, Oct. 13 from 1 p.m. to 5 p.m. and also this Sunday, Oct. 14 from 12 noon to 4 p.m. at the IM Pilates Studio right here in Stittsville. Those planning to participate should register with the IM Pilates Studio so that the event can be properly organized. You can register by calling the IM Pilates Studio at 613435-9002 or by sending an email to info@impilatesstudio.com . Isabella Moroz, owner and instructor at IM Pilates Studio, is hoping that this Pilates-AThon fundraiser may become a new tradition for Pilates instructors in the city of Ottawa, with the event becoming an annual happening that would take place at different Pilates studios in support of different fundraising efforts each time. But, right now, for the first time ever, this Pilates-A-Thon

fundraiser is happening right here at the IM Pilates Studio in Stittsville. What an opportunity to try out Pilates! What an opportunity for a seasoned Pilates lover to experience instruction from a guest Pilates teacher! What an opportunity to use Pilates to help out in providing improved youth mental health programs in the area! Everyone of all ages (yes, Pilates is fun for even the youngest as well as for seniors) is welcome to participate in this first-ever PilatesA-Thon in Stittsville. The classes will be fun no matter what your level of Pilates involvement is, from the novice right through to the most experienced. And you will know that just by being there and participating, you are helping out the upcoming 9 RUN RUN event in raising funds for youth mental health programming in the community.

Rural youth summit in Stittsville John Curry john.curry@metroland.com

EMC news - All roads for rural youth are leading to Stittsville this coming Saturday, Oct. 13. That’s when a rural youth summit is being staged at the Johnny Leroux Stittsville Community Arena with rural youth from the West Carleton, Carp and Richmond areas being bussed in from their local communities. The Western Ottawa Community Resource Centre is hosting this rural youth summit which is happening one day after city of Ottawa mayor Jim Watson is hosting a city-wide youth summit. This rural youth summit happening in Stitts-

ville is meant to provide a voice for rural youth who are in school and cannot attend the mayor’s downtown summit. This rural youth summit this coming Saturday in Stittsville is to be an opportunity for ruralbased youth to provide input on what matters to them and where improvements can be made by the city in order to improve the quality of life for rural youth. It is meant as a chance for youth from the rural area to say what they would like to see in terms of programming for youth in rural areas. While the rural youth summit is being promoted as an event for youth between the ages of 12 and 25, organizers particularly want to hear from youth between the ages of 12 and 16 who are still

too young to drive and to have a part-time job. This rural youth summit will run from 10:30 a.m. to 1 p.m. this Saturday, Oct. 13, with pizza being provided to those who attend. The summit will involve two components: an initial session will see the youth attended asked the same questions that will have been asked to youth at the mayor’s youth summit the day before. Then a second session will consist of breakout groups where rural youth from particular rural areas will get together to discuss youth concerns in that area. For more information about this rural youth summit or to register to attend, contact info@ wocrc.ca or call 613-591-3686.

DEATH NOTICE

GARAGE SALE

Francis Gay Ruff (Lobb) (nee Morton) It is with sad hearts that we announce the passing of Francis Gay Ruff (Lobb) of Ottawa Ontario. Born in Hamilton Ontario, she was the daughter of the late Aubrey (Veteran of World War I) and Nancy Morton. Predeceased by her first husband, James Alan Lobb and second husband Albert Ruff, both proud sailors through World War II, she is survived by her brother Dr. Phillip Morton (Ann) of Toronto. Much beloved and devoted mother of Phillip Lobb (Julie) of Sidney BC, Timothy Lobb (Loanne ) of Surrey BC and John Lobb (Brenda) of Carp, Ontario. Also survived by nieces Cynthia, Nancy, Gwyneth (Mark) and Charles (Heather) as well as by the Ruff clan, Stewart and Susan Ruff and Eric and Barbara Ruff. She was a much loved and cherished Gramma to James and Joel Lobb and to Cody Walsh as well as to Elizabeth, Michael, Andrew and Daniel. Gay grew up in Hamilton Ontario and was a child of the great depression; that experience gave her a great appreciation for the basics of life and taking care of her husband James and the family was the main order of business which she did extremely well even as they moved around so that James could follow his career path. The family resided in Bamfield BC, England, Montreal, Calgary, Toronto and Victoria. Gay took employment where she could and as well as raising her three boys, also volunteered at the Royal Jubilee Hospital in Victoria BC for 25 years. Unfortunately, she lost her first husband James in 1975. In her later years she enjoyed much world travel. She was proud of her lineage and gathered genealogical information as she could, sometimes by visiting distant relatives in England, Wales and elsewhere. In her retirement, Gay’s travels expanded to include European and Asian destinations. In 1992, she married Alan Ruff, a fellow Victorian and Brit, with whom she travelled even more and found great happiness with. Her children and grand children were her greatest source of pride and her highest priority. Despite challenges of distance and time, she did the best she could to keep the family connected. Trips to visit son John while he was on military postings around the country were common-place, as were visits to her brother, Dr Phil Morton and his wife Ann in Toronto. Gay had many interests and was constantly occupied with various volunteer positions. She especially loved to entertain friends and family. Rarely seen without a book, she also enjoyed crafting, playing scrabble, bridge, gardening, walking, and she was a great cook. She will also be remembered for her great sense of humor. Despite her failing health and the onset of Alzheimer’s in her latter years, she could still trigger gales of laughter with her wry sense of humour and rapier-like wit. She will be missed by all who knew her. There will be no immediate funeral however a memorial service will be announced and held in the near future. The family wishes to acknowledge the wonderful care Gay received while a resident at the Fairview Manor in Almonte as well as the personal support workers who assisted Brenda and John while Gay lived with them in Carp. In lieu of flowers, the family suggests a donation in her name to: Almonte General Hospital, Fairview Manor Foundation

Mary Cook’s Memories Miss Crosby was fair to a fault, yet she stood for no nonsense. Most of the boys in Senior Fourth at Northcote School were a couple heads taller than she was, but she had no trouble handing out discipline to any of them when the need arose. We all had a healthy fear of Miss Crosby, including Cecil and my brother Emerson, both of whom seemed to attract trouble like ants to a plate of honey. The strap that hung on the side of her desk from a cup hook was a constant reminder that if anyone stepped out of line, she would use it in a split second. When she did, the whack was enough to raise her off her feet. So needless to say, just looking at the black leather demon was enough to keep us on our best behaviour. Miss Crosby was lucky to live in the community, not like some rural teachers who had to “room and board” at one of the local farms. She could walk to school. She also had the patience of a saint. Marguirite was enough to try anyone’s patience, but Miss Crosby knew exactly how to handle the girl who was the bane of my existence. Marguirite never did anything bad enough to warrant the strap, but she aggravated the daylights out of me, mostly because she was the only one in her family and had the best of everything. She had a real leather school bag, for instance and a tin box for her lunch, items that were deemed luxuries at the time. About once a year, just about every family in the community would have the teacher over night on a weekend. That meant of course, that she would attend church with the family on the Sunday and it didn’t matter what church they attended, the teacher was expected to go with them. So Miss Crosby could be at a United church one week and at a Lutheran one the next. What a thrill it was to have the teacher over for the night. Of course, when it was our turn to host the teacher, she couldn’t be expected to walk the five-and-a-half kilometres my brothers and sister and I had to trudge to and from school. No, Father would take the buggy

Preparing students for the world

in the summer and the cutter in the winter to fetch her to our old log house. That weekend, I felt so smug. I knew for a fact that Marguirite had asked Miss Crosby at least three or four times during the school year to go to her home for the weekend. But Miss Crosby wouldn’t dream of that. No, everything was fair and square with Miss Crosby. Marguirite would constantly bring a treat to school for the teacher. This time of year it would be an apple. Often Miss Crosby would have an apple every day from the little girl with the drug-store-bought curls and I would watch to see what the teacher would do with it. I never saw her eat the apple, but it would be taken home with her and I liked to think she maybe threw it away when she got far enough away from the school. I have no idea what Miss Crosby did with the boxes of hankies, the cheap tin cans of talcum powder and the countless bars of soap she got at Christmas time, but I do remember getting a little note of thanks every year. She would make sure the notes were all written at the same time, on our desks waiting for us. The notes were never mailed. After all, it cost three cents for a postage stamp back then. She never seemed to have a big wardrobe. In the winter, it was a simple black wool dress and in the summer a printed silk. She had a variety of crocheted collars that she attached to her outfit to bring variety to what she wore and she wore black laced shoes with thick rubber on the heels. My brother Emerson said the heels were like that so that she could creep up on you without being heard. Miss Crosby loved the Bible. Every morning she read a scripture lesson and we all recited the Lord’s Prayer in unison. When Mother said Miss Crosby was a saint, I believed her. Her salary was only a few hundred dollars a year and Mother said she earned every cent of it. When you left the Northcote School, having graduated from the entrance class, you were ready for whatever road lay ahead. Miss Crosby saw to that.

Ultimate peach cake

Several years ago, I featured a recipe in my column for a cake made with peach pie filling. In less than a week, supermarkets and grocery stores from Brockville to Ottawa were completely sold out of peach pie filling. As a result of it being so hard to find, I developed a recipe for a quick, homemade peach pie filling to use in the cake. It’s not as convenient as the canned version, but it has more peaches and less sugar. Due to popular request, here are both recipes, one for the cake and the other for the homemade peach pie filling. The ingredients for the cake are simple: white cake mix, peach pie filling, eggs, and almond flavouring. Ultimate Peach Cake 1 white cake mix 1 can (540 ml) peach pie filling or use the recipe below 4 eggs, beaten 1 1/4 tsp. almond extract 1 tbsp. amaretto liqueur

What’s for

Ignore the directions on the cake mix package. The batter does not need any other liquids. Butter and lightly flour either a Bundt pan or a 23-by-33-centimetre cake pan. In a large mixing bowl, stir together the cake mix, pie filling, eggs, flavouring and liqueur if you’re using it. Use a spoon, not an electric mixer, to mix the batter. Stir until thoroughly combined, about two minutes. If the peaches in the pie filling are in large slices, break them into smaller pieces with the spoon. Spread the batter evenly in the prepared pan, and bake at 325 F (160 C) for about 35 min-

PAT TREW Food ‘n’ Stuff utes. Check with a toothpick to make sure the cake is done. If not, bake for another five minutes and test again. When the cake is done, remove it from the oven, and let it cool for five minutes. If you used a Bundt pan, turn the cake out on a rack. If you used a 23-by-33-centimetre pan, leave the cake in the pan. Cool completely before serving. This cake is very moist and doesn’t need icing. If you want to serve it with something else, a dollop of whipped cream is nice. This recipe makes a large cake, but it freezes well. This is handy if there are only two of you. To freeze, cut the cake into manageable, place each portion in a tightly-sealed plastic container and freeze. Homemade Peach Filling 398 mL can of peaches, either slices or halves, in their own juice water (see directions below for the amount) 1/4 cup flour If you can’t find canned peach pie filling, here’s how to make a homemade version. Drain the canned peaches, reserving the juice in a measuring cup. Add enough water to make one cup of liquid. Combine the liquid with the flour in a small plastic container with a tight-fitting lid. Cover, hold the lid firmly and shake well. Pour this into a small saucepan. Cook the mixture, over medium heat, for three to five minutes, stirring constantly, until it thickens into a sauce. Cool completely. While the sauce cools, cut the canned peaches into pieces about the size of a walnut. When the sauce is cool, stir in the peaches. Use this homemade peach mixture, instead of the canned pie filling, in the cake recipe.
