Sports - West Carleton’s Todd Nicholson will be inducted into the Ottawa Sports Hall of Fame in the athlete category this May. The Dunrobin man will be one of five people honoured at this year’s award ceremony, the organization announced on April 4.

“It means quite a bit,” said Nicholson. “As much as I’m accepting the award, I realize I wouldn’t have been able to do this without the support of the community, and my family, my friends.”

Growing up, Nicholson played a number of sports but his main love was hockey.

“As a kid growing up that’s what I wanted to do, play hockey,” he said. Then, a car accident on his high school prom night left him a paraplegic. But Nicholson didn’t let that stop him.

deficiencies.

The D55 issue flared up last year when the city refused a lot severance for a West Carleton landowner after he spent $17,000 to have a well drilled, tested and certified by an engineer, Dolan said. The water has treatable high sulphur content – an aesthetic, not health, issue.

The Ottawa-Carleton Landowners’ Association got involved, but the hope the committee might take action was always slim, Dolan said.

She says the issue is all about control.

Dolan said she believes the city is misapplying the guidelines in a way that wasn’t intended by the Ministry of the Environment. She said she’s confirmed twice with ministry that the water-quality guidelines were never intended to apply to single-lot severances – ministry representatives said the guidelines were meant to be applied to communal wells that serve six or more lots.

Murray Chown, a prominent local development lawyer, agreed the city is too strict in its application of the D55 guidelines. “The city doesn’t apply that flexibility. The city is much

RIGOROUS APPLICATION

LAURA MUELLER/METROLAND

A growing crowd of around 200 people – many from West Carleton – packed the Osgoode Community Centre on April 4 for a rowdy meeting discussing strict water-quality guidelines that need to be met before lot severances can be granted in Ottawa. quality – but some rural residents say they’re out of date.

The problem, said people who came out to the April 4 meeting of the city’s agriculture and rural affairs committee, is that the guidelines are 18 years old and don’t reflect the invention of technologies that can fix aesthetic problems with water, such as a high sulphur content.

“If the water that is coming out of the tap is clean, is safe, the city really has no business, according to the province, to regulate the water on private property,� Dolan said.

As long as the city’s Official Plan requires the guidelines to be met before granting the severance of a lot, the city can refuse those severances.

The committee asked for

Osgoode Coun.

Doug Thompson, who heads the rural affairs committee, said the water quality in different areas of Ottawa varies and it makes sense for the city to have some control over it to ensure water safety for residents. He worried about legal repercussions if the city granted a severance and the untested water made someone ill.

But Dolan pushed Thompson and the committee to consider what Prince Edward County did. That municipality ditched the guidelines and now requires consent agreements to be registered on the property’s title stating the county is not responsible for water-quality R0012608139

If the water-quality guidelines aren’t met, the city can deny the severance of the lot.

The guidelines have been used since 2009.

The city has only denied three lot severances due to water-quality guidelines since 2004 – 1,673 severances have been approved in that time. “Restricting severances is going to destroy the right to rural life,� West Carleton resident Adele Muldoon told the city’s agriculture and rural affairs committee on April 4. “It is the seniors of the rural area that will be hurt most if the city continues to implement the procedures now in place,� she said, because it’s common practice to sever a lot to build a home for aging parents to live in the same vicinity as their children in the community they’ve lived for most of their lives.

The provincial procedure, called D55, identifies the maximum concentration of contaminants in well water – both for health and aesthetic impacts.

Those guidelines reflect the federal and World Health Organization’s standards for water

more rigorous in their application of those guidelines,� he said.

Thompson said the city has to work within the parameters of the province and urged concerned residents to lobby their MPP to support updating the guidelines.

Everyone agreed the D55 guidelines, which were drafted in 1995, are out of date and should be reviewed by the province.

Some of the residents in attendance pointed out the Osgoode Community Centre, where the meeting was held, doesn’t follow the same strict water-quality rules: the washrooms feature signs warning of high sulphur content in the water. “Yes, there is a bit of an irony,� Thompson said.

Daphne Snell, a Kanata resident whose mother lives in the rural area and might one day choose to sever her property, said the City of Ottawa itself wouldn’t be able to offer clean drinking water to any of its residents if it wasn’t for technologies similar to ones that can be used to fix aesthetic water-quality issues being used to deny lot severances.

News - On a beautiful Sunday afternoon on March 30 at the Point Dining Lounge in Constance Bay, music could be heard for a local sweetie, Liam McKnight.

Liam is an almost six-year-old local boy with Dravet Syndrome, a rare form of epilepsy.

Mary and Rick Charlebois (owners of the Point) and Al and Sue Cockerell quickly put this fundraiser together to help Liam and his family.

Food was supplied by the Point Dining Lounge and Dunrobin Meat and Grocery.

Music was supplied by a great bunch of lads: Al Cockerell, Johnny Griffiths, John Bradley and Iain Scott.

“We take care of our own,” explained co-organizer Al Cockerell. A huge crowd came to do just that. Locals young and old came out to play with Liam, dance a little and enjoy the feeling of generosity in the room.

Local MPP Jack MacLaren and his wife Jackie came to support little Liam. Also attending was Hayrettin Buyuktepe from the International Dialogue Institute in Kanata (representing the Turkish society). Many thanks to him for attending.

“Thanks to all who helped make this day a success.”

There was another huge fundraiser at the West Carleton Legion last Saturday with the Constance Bay firefighters putting on a dinner for Liam. More on that in next week’s Review.

Hydro prices unlikely to drop Derek Dunn derek.dunn@metroland.com

News - The Liberal government doesn’t seem prepared to enforce a lowering of hydro rates in reaction to a protest at Energy Minister Bob Chiarelli’s constituency office and other places around the province last Friday.

Dozens of angry customers, along with Progressive Conservative MPPs Jack MacLaren and Lisa McLeod, were on hand to rally against escalating costs and erratic billing.

Chiarelli’s spokeswoman, Beckie Codd-Downey, rhymed off five programs introduced to help reduce electricity costs that “the opposition party voted against,” including:

The Ontario Clean Energy Benefit helps families, small businesses, and farms manage electricity prices by taking 10 per cent off hydro bills.

The Ontario Energy and Property Tax Credit saves qualifying individuals up to $963 per year, with a maximum of $1,097 per year for qualifying seniors.

The Northern Ontario Energy Credit saves families up to $210 per year and individuals up to $137 a year.

The Low-Income Energy Assistance Program provides emergency financial support for families and individuals having trouble paying their bills.

The saveONenergy Home Assistance Program helps income-eligible consumers manage their energy costs by providing home energy efficiency assessments and energy saving measures at no cost.

PHOTOS BY BRANDON GILLET/METROLAND

Residents from more than 24 communities gathered in front of Minister Bob Chiarelli’s office on April 4 to demonstrate their displeasure at the escalation of hydro rates in Ontario. They claim the higher rates are contributing to loss of jobs and business closures.

“We understand the pressures faced by electricity consumers, which is why our government has taken significant steps to mitigate price increases going forward as we continue to ensure our energy system is clean, reliable and affordable,” Codd-Downey said.

“As noted in our 2013 Long-Term Energy Plan (LTEP), we have undertaken a number of measures to help reduce costs for Ontarians, including renegotiating the Samsung Agreement, lowering Feed-in Tariff prices, early coal plant closures, deferring the construction of two new nuclear reactors, and introducing new wind dispatch rules.

“Compared to LTEP 2010, average residential consumers can expect to pay $520 less from 20132017 and $3,800 less from 20132030.”

Snowmobilers thank landowners, permit buyers as season ends News - Snowmobilers are being warned to stay off of closed Ontario Federal of Snowmobile Clubs’ (OFSC) prescribed snowmobile trails effective immediately as the season has come to an end.

The trails are reported as “Unavailable” (Red) on the website at ofsc.on.ca and area clubs have stopped regular grooming operations.

Rapidly deteriorating snow and ice conditions due to spring thaw make snowmobiling extremely hazardous. Roads and road crossings are now generally bare and the ice on all waterways is melted, melting or unstable.

“The only safe and sensible course of action for snowmobilers is to put away their sleds until next winter,” said manager Terry Vaudry. “The risks of trying that ‘one last ride’ are simply too high now that spring thaw has commenced.”

The public is also reminded that an OFSC snowmobile trail on private land reported as “Unavailable” means that access to that trail is also prohibited for any other users or persons for all other seasons, without the specific prior permission of the landowner.

“I want to thank all of the landowners who have generously allowed the use of their property,” said Vaudry.

‘It was a huge sense of pride to put on the hockey Canada jersey’ Continued from page 1

“When my accident happened doors started opening, opportunities started coming up. I took those opportunities and ran with them,” Nicholson said.

And run with them he did.

Nicholson boasts a number of accomplishments. The 45year-old is a three-time Paralympic medalist and captain of the Canadian Men’s Sledge Hockey team, winning gold in 2006, silver in 1998 and bronze in 1994.

He was twice named to the Paralympic all-star teams, was the Canadian flag bearer for the opening Paralympic ceremonies in 2006, and has won eight medals at the World Championships, including gold in 2000 and 2008.

“It was a huge sense of pride to put on the hockey Canada jersey,” he said. “That is something I’ll never forget.

“I think the biggest thing is for people out there to realize that anything is possible. Life may throw you some curves but it’s all in how you deal with them.”

He said he remembers attending the ceremony where Steve Yzerman was inducted

into the Ottawa Sports Hall of Fame in 2008.

“I wore number 19 and one of the reasons was because of him. I always really like what he did on and off the ice,” said Nicholson.

In 2010, Nicholson was elected to the International Paralympic Committee Athletes Council and is currently the chair of the organization.

“My goals and life have changed a bit since being on the ice and now are more focused on a much bigger picture for all athletes around the world,” he said. “I will do what I can to ensure every athlete gets the opportunity to showcase what they are capable to achieve.”

Nicholson, who graduated from Arnprior District High School, is also a motivational speaker for the Canadian Paralympic Committee’s Changing Minds, Changing Lives program. He helps encourage young people with physical challenges to remain active, while also helping others understand the importance of physical activity.

He was awarded the both the Queen’s Golden and Diamond Jubilee Awards.

“Never be afraid to ask for

help, for me that was a huge part of what I became,” said Nicholson. “I always try to surround myself with positive people.”

Nicholson still plays hockey recreationally on Sunday nights in Arnprior.

“I’m the only guy in a sled,” he said. “I enjoy it, it’s a great time. It keeps me involved, it keeps me active and I still get to play the game that gave me so much.”

School bells may toll at different times Derek Dunn derek.dunn@metroland.com

News - School bell times could change in a bid to save millions of dollars in busing costs.

The Ottawa Student Transportation Authority (OSTA) is proposing major changes to

more than 100 schools in the city, including two that educate West Carleton students. The move could save $3.3 million for Ottawa Carleton District School Board and the Ottawa Catholic School Board.

Changes wouldn’t happen until the September 2015 school year. However, some

could see start times affected by an entire hour.

That type of change won’t be the case for West Carleton’s seven schools. There is no change proposed for West Carleton High School, Huntley Centennial Public School, St. Isidore Catholic School, St. Michael’s Catholic in Corkery

Welcome Dr. Amanda Spielman

R0012625920

The Doctors of the Kanata Optometry Centre are pleased to introduce and welcome Dr. Amanda Spielman to their practice. Dr. Spielman has been successfully practising in Ottawa since 2005 and is now accepting new patients. She provides full scope optometric care for patients of all ages, which complements the services presently in place.

or St. Michael’s Catholic in Fitzroy Harbour.

Arnprior District High School is not included OSTA catchment area.

The area’s largest elementary school, Stonecrest, may see its start time pushed up 10 minutes from 9:05 a.m. to 9:15.

And All Saints High School in Kanata could see a 20-minute change: from 8:20 a.m. to 8.

The changes would create three standard bell times to allow buses to be used on three different routes every morning.

It would limit how many buses are needed, thus the savings. But it could come at a cost for some schools. Kars on the Rideau would start at 9:15 a.m., an hour later than it does today.

Sue Grant believes the change is too severe. The 2015 school board candidate from Carp is in favour of the boards working closer together to save money, but Kars on the Rideau – which is in the same zone as Huntley, West Carleton Secondary and other local schools – is being asked to take too much of a hit.

“I think it’s a great idea for the boards to be working together to maximize dollars,” Grant said. “But 60 minutes

She will withhold her final position until after the consultation period. Especially the April 15 meeting in Kars.

That’s the same for area Catholic trustee John Curry. He endorses the concept of public and Catholic boards working together on busing and other issues. But he isn’t ready to respond until parents have had their say.

“We’ll have to see what happens at the consultations. It’s really up to parents,” Curry said. “If it’s going to significantly disrupt their chances to catch the bus to work in the morning, there’s a reason to be concerned.”

He calls the potential savings “significant” but doesn’t

want to see the move backfire.

“It’s about efficient use of tax dollars, but not to the extent it will not work.”

Walking distance changes are also part of the consultations. There has been no standard measurement for safety and potential dangers across the city. OSTA is proposing changes to some routes they now consider too dangerous and others less so. Volume of traffic is among the factors under consideration.

“They looked at virtually every school in both boards.

It affects schools differently,” Curry said. “This consultation also deals with how parents feel about the proposed changes.”

Public trustee Lynn Scott could not be reached for comment.

Last year the realignment of the north leg of Shea Road by approximately 90 metres to the east was completed. This year a single lane roundabout at Fernbank Road and Shea Road is to be constructed. This project is to be completed by the end of the summer of 2014.

The new roundabout will eliminate the offset between the north and south legs of Shea Road on Fernbank Road. It will also eliminate the stop controlled intersections at the two Fernbank and Shea intersections.

Egg-cellent Easter weekend planned Jessica Cunha jessica.cunha@metroland.com

Events - There are plenty of egg-cellent Easter weekend events taking place in West Carleton that offer fun for the whole family.

From the open-air Easter farmers market to egg hunts around the area, the Easter bunny will be kept hopping all weekend long.

The annual Carp Farmers’ Easter Market will take place on Saturday, April 19, at the Carp Agricultural Fairgrounds.

More than 50 vendors are offering everything from homemade jams, jellies, and sauces, meats and eggs, veggies and fruits, chocolate and baked goods, and anything else needed for the perfect Easter meal. Also available

are an assortment of crafts, art, toys, clothing and more. “(People will) be pleasantly surprised. It’s their chance to kick off the market season a little bit early,” said Don Henderson, who sits on the market’s board of directors.

“It’s quite unique.”

He added it’s a chance for people to experience a different type of farmers’ market than they may be used to.

Spring street sweeping begins April 14 City-wide sweeping operations including concentrated street sweeping City wide street sweeping includes daytime and night-time work that will cause some noise and dust. The City of Ottawa Noise By-law allows for this service to be performed during night-time hours.

If vehicles are parked on the street, the un-swept area is noted and crews must then return to sweep that portion. Your patience and cooperation in keeping vehicles off the streets during the spring cleanup is appreciated.

The dates of street sweeping are weather dependant. Annually, the City sweeps over 6,500 kilometres of roadway and over 2,000 kilometres of sidewalks to keep Ottawa clean and green.

“It’s different than a downtown-based market,” Henderson said. “It’s really a place for urban dwellers to see that other side of Ottawa, the true rural side.”

The market is also partnering with the West Carleton Food Bank, running a 50/50 draw and collecting non-perishable items.

“We’ve just done that for as long as I’ve been there,” said Henderson. “It’s just a way to help out. A lot of our vendors are West Carleton residents so it’s a natural tie in.”

The event kicks off at 8 a.m. and lasts until 2 p.m. and takes place rain or shine.

DIEFENBUNKER EGGS

The Easter Bunny plans to visit the Diefenbunker to hide eggs around the complex on Saturday, April 19.

The eggs will be concealed

throughout the 100,000 square-foot bunker. Children will also have the chance to win a large basket filled with goodies by answering a short quiz based on their experience, said curator and marketing manager Megan Lafrenière.

“This is a really popular event,” she said. “We got a few hundred kids last year.”

The last two years have seen great numbers of participants. In 2012, more than 300 people visited the underground bunker turned Cold War museum for the inaugural Easter egg hunt.

“It’s not your typical museum,” said Lafrenière.

“Looking for Easter eggs in a 100,000 square-foot venue …

It’s a pretty rare experience.”

And it’s fun for the parents too, she added.

“As kids are running around looking for eggs, just taking in the environment is special,” she said. “The parents can enjoy the exhibits, the historical spaces.”

Attendees will also have the

opportunity to make an Easter craft – with a spy-theme – after the eggs have been found.

The Easter party is included in the price of admission and runs from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. Only nut-free eggs will be used.

For more information, email education@diefenbunker.ca or call 613-839-0007.

EGG HUNT, PARTY

The Constance and Buckham’s Bay Community Association kicks off Easter Sunday celebrations on April 20, with a chocolate chip pancake breakfast at 10 a.m. The cost is $2.50 for children and $5 for adults.

The rest of the day will be filled with even more chocolate with the annual Easter egg hunt at noon, followed by the children’s Easter party hosted by the West Carleton Legion Branch 616 at 1 p.m.

“One event, two places; don’t miss either one,” said the community association.

Separate fact from fiction

T

he best man in Ottawa has taken a tumble courtesy of some shotgun silliness emerging from yet another sensitivity-spooked sports organization in the capital.

A couple weeks ago, the Ottawa RedBlacks introduced Big Joe Mufferaw as the football team’s new mascot to the applause of hundreds of delighted children at the Kanata French public school in Morgan’s Grant. The school’s vice-principal, Matthieu Vachon, said Mufferaw was “a wonderful choice of name.� “Jos Montferrand is a pioneer of French language rights in Ontario, so it’s a great choice of name for the mascot of the team, and it shows the heritage of Ottawa and eastern Ontario,� he said.

It’s important to note that Big Joe Mufferaw is a fictional character created by Ottawa Valley author Bernie Bedore that was inspired by the exploits of a French Canadian logger. But only three days after the announcement, following a string of “several� complaints, the Ottawa Sports and Entertainment Group, the group that owns the RedBlacks, gave the name the old heave-ho, deciding to go with Big Joe or Grand Jos. Apparently, the sports group was deluged with “several� emails and phone calls (it didn’t quite reach “dozens� proportions) complaining how the name was an anglicized version of Montferrand.

And don’t forget the “several� people who expressed their displeasure over the Twitterverse, with messages denouncing the football team’s sensitivity to the sensitivities of French Canadians.

It’s time for a reality check: Big Joe Mufferaw is a fictional character. You can dislike a fictional character. You can refuse to read a book or watch a movie about a fictional character. But it’s more than a little silly if you try to stop others from reading or watching movies about a fictional character.

Clearly, the Ottawa Sports and Entertainment Group (OSEG) were a little gun shy about offending francophones, considering it was only a few months away from the newly created team’s season opener at Lansdowne Park. OSEG should have shown a little backbone and stuck with their original choice.

Ottawa’s professional sports teams are already starting to earn a reputation for being wishy washy.

It’s been little more than a year since Ottawa’s franchise professional basketball team dropped the name TomaHawks, following complaints from several fans, who claimed the team name misappropriated First Nations culture. Tomahawk – it’s an inanimate object. History has shown us that a small and determined group of people can make a real difference in this world. But sometimes they shouldn’t.

A place for all your eclectic tastes

f you know Ottawa at all, you know that it is a city of cults. There are little groups, hundreds of them scattered about, that are interested in the most out of the way things.

You might think you are the only one fascinated with, say, the political thought of M.J. Coldwell or the proper way to cook an eel, but there is probably a group meeting about that right now.

For a while it appeared that people who believed in the arrival of spring were another oddball aggregation. But it turns out maybe they were right.

This is by way of an introduction to a unique meeting that happened a couple of weeks ago when the former Montreal Expos outfielder, Ellis Valentine, was in town. An invitation went out to meet him and help the Miracle League of Ottawa, a group that helps special-needs children, young adults and adults play baseball on specially-constructed fields.

Valentine didn’t play long enough for the Expos -- six years -- to become one of the team legends -- except to the cult. He was traded away in the middle of the 1981 playoff season and wasn’t around for some of the exciting times that followed. But he

CHARLES GORDON Funny Town was a fine hitter and outfielder, known for his throwing arm. Before Gary Carter, Andre Dawson and Tim Raines emerged as stars, Valentine was the best guy on the Expos, an all-star in 1977.

And, of course, there are people who remember that, even though Valentine had not been in an Expos uniform for more than 30 years. So they came to a Westboro pub, helped the cause, got autographs and heard Valentine, who had arrived from Texas, give a graceful little speech about the Expos, baseball and the Miracle League.

It would be fair to say that this cult consisted largely of middle-aged men and men who wished they were still middle-aged.

Some of them were wearing Expos uniform shirts and there was a guy wearing a Phillies

uniform too. We all stood in line for autographs and a chance to chat.

Which is to say that you’re never too old to be fanatical about stuff. And that doesn’t apply just to Westboro. There were undoubtedly many other unexpected events taking place in other Ottawa venues the same night.

The quintessential thing about being in a cult is that you believe, no matter what. A couple of days later the cult of the Expos had grown into a wave, gathered at the Olympic Stadium in Montreal, ostensibly to watch an exhibition baseball game between the Toronto Blue Jays and the New York Mets, but really to will into existence a new major league baseball team for Montreal. Montreal has been without one since 2004. For two days, the Olympic Stadium was filled in a way that the Expos had not been able to fill it in their last doomed years.

This may also have had something to do with being desperate for arrival of spring.

Whatever the reason, they packed the place with roaring voices and Expos shirts that had been in the bottom drawer for many years.

It was an impressive show, a demonstration of hope. It may not succeed, because it is up against the irrational realities of sports capitalism, but it was moving to see.

Among the group at the Ellis Valentine night were people involved in bringing baseball back to what used to be called the Lynx Stadium next year. That’s another demonstration of hope.

The Lynx, in the 1990s, rode a wave of baseball enthusiasm in Ottawa and then suddenly the wave disappeared. Maybe it can reappear. Stranger things happen every day in this town.

Meanwhile, it is comforting to be reminded that, no matter how arcane is your interest, no matter how distant your target, in Ottawa you are not alone. How’s that eel tasting?

And just like that, spring rolls in for the farm Lifestyle - Ice and snow has layered with leavings of hay and manure and more ice and more hay, until a sloping hill has formed around the cattle feeder.

The mound is so high now the cows can just lift up a

hoof and step right into the feeder.

On a warm sunny afternoon I often ďŹ nd a calf asleep in there, like a babe in a manger. We often ďŹ nd the horse lying down now too.

She’s pregnant and probably

tired as she heads into her last three months.

She likes the sunny spot up against the stone wall.

Now that it’s warmer out, she doesn’t need her winter coat. It’s starting to uff and fall off her back, but she appreciates the extra grooming help.

When we bring her into her tie stall at night, I squeeze myself in there between her bulging belly and the wooden half-wall.

She has two different brushes – a soft bristled brush and a curry comb. She likes you to put them under her nose ďŹ rst so she can smell them.

As I brush and comb Misty, her reddish-blonde hair clumps and rolls like big uffy tumbleweeds off her back. Afterwards I pick up the pile of hair and bring it outside to the bird feeder.

Someone can make a nice nest out of that.

Donkey likes a brushing too. His hair doesn’t behave the same as the horse’s though. His coat is coarse and dusty. He just likes a good scratch.

The nursery is still full of

ewes and lambs, but soon we will be able to open the little half-door so they can wander in and outside as they like.

In another month we will sell the lot of them, except Gracie. The Farmer said I can keep her, as she is my favourite, tame sheep. She thinks she’s a dog. I just hope she isn’t too lonely as the only remaining sheep. They are herd animals.

Soon Donkey will have to be separated from Misty for the safety of her new foal.

He and Gracie can head over to hang with the cows.

Our cattle herd is growing so quickly. We had four females born last season and so the multiplying will happen fast.

We’ll open up the barn and let them wander through to the house side this year.

They will have choices; the luxury of options. On a

hot day they can follow the fence along the cool forest, in the shade. When the back porch is teeming with guests at Sunday dinner, they can wander over to the gate and socialize.

It has been a long, cold, frozen winter.

The Farmer is so tired of defrosting water hoses and smashing the ice out of troughs.

The cows are bored of their daily menu of silage and hay. We’re going to run out of hay very soon.

The cows keep looking out toward the sunset. I wonder if they are daydreaming of the days when they can once again wander along the crooked diagonal path across the ďŹ eld, to the pasture meadow.

The snow is almost gone now. The path they beat into the earth is visible again.

“Soon,� I tell Mocha, and scratch her behind the ears.

Soon you will ďŹ nd more sweet green grass than you can eat.

Soon you will smell apple blossoms and then, weeks later, the sun will bring the smell of warm baked apples across the meadow to your nose. You won’t be able to resist it. You will break out of the pasture and follow your nose to the meadow and I will have to bring wheelbarrows full of the wild fruit just to keep you in the barnyard.

I remind her of these things and my tame cow bats her long eyelashes at me, blinking brown eyes.

She remembers. Turns away from me and stares down the path.

The sheepdog snoozes in the afternoon sunshine, on top of the stone fence. The temperature should be reaching 10 degrees or higher now, every day.

We’re on the home stretch.

Hang in there, fellas.

Every year, millions of Canadians are targeted by fraud regardless of their age, education level, income, profession or ethnicity.

March was Fraud Protection Month in Canada and the Financial Consumer Agency of Canada (FCAC) joined the Competition Bureau and several other organizations in raising awareness about the issue of fraud. It’s an ideal time for Canadians to find out how to recognize, prevent and report fraud should they become a victim.

It’s easy to fall for a financial scam. Criminals

use creative tactics to catch potential victims at different stages of their lives.

Whether you are starting your first job, moving out on your own, maintaining a home or living in retirement, be mindful of the potential scams that could target you. Protect your assets, property and identity by recognizing and reporting the warning signs to the proper authorities and by visiting itpaystoknow.gc.ca to learn more.

Too long have the local Tory MPs such as Cheryl Gallant, Scott Reid and Gordon O’Connor towed Stephen Harper’s line of hypocrisy.

My God, O’Connor was National Defense Minister and retired general! Even he is still silent in this veteran travesty.

What will it take for these Tory MP to speak up?

Harper prefers to send federal lawyers after the vets and fight them in the courts than pay them what’s due. Maybe Harper’s federal attack litigation lawyers should be sent to

Macnamara Owl Prowl was a real success

PHOTOS BY MICHAEL RUNTZ

The tiny Northern Saw-whet Owl sounds like a saw being sharpened.

Lifestyle - Each year I lead two very popular outings for the Macnamara Field Naturalists’ Club.

One is a mid-summer excursion to see wild orchids. The other is one in which we usually don’t see the target subjects. That is because the event doesn’t start until the sun has set.

The late start is for good reason: the subjects are owls.

Owls are hard to see because most are creatures of the night. There are exceptions: Snowy Owls, which were plentiful this winter, are highly diurnal. But apart from those and a couple of other northern species, most are active only at night.

Recently, 60 members of the Macnamara group joined me for a nocturnal excursion to find owls.

We travelled quiet backroads from Stewartville to Cedar Hill, stopping half a dozen times where owls had been encountered on previous excursions. Although as many as six species of owls are possible, usually three at most are encountered.

Late March is an excellent time to hear owls, for they are vocal when pairing up and claiming territories.

Each species has its habitat preferences, so the best strategy is to visit a variety of sites. We started off near an old hardwood forest, the habitat of Barred Owls, our most common species. It wasn’t quite dark when we arrived and no owls were calling.

Now, some people use taped calls to elicit responses from owls, but I use vocal imitations.

Michael Runtz Nature’s Way

Barred Owls are the owls most commonly heard in our area.

I began belting out rhythmic: “who-cooks-for-you, who-cooks-foryou-awwwllll” calls and eventually a reply was heard in the distance. The owl moved closer, and after enjoying its wild calls for a few minutes, we returned to our cars and moved on.

Our next target was Northern Sawwhet Owls. At about seven inches tall, they are our smallest owls.

Saw-whets prefer wetlands bordered by cedars, with winding creeks being favoured sites. Our route took us along the beautiful Bellamy Road, which has plenty of good habitat.

At two locations we heard the distinctive repetitive whistles of those little owls. My imitations brought them closer, and one actually landed in alders beside us, offering good views under a flashlight’s illumination.

Our final stop was in the heart of Pakenham where Eastern ScreechOwls, which sit about 10 inches tall, have been resident since the 1920s.

None were calling so I gave whistled “whinny” impersonations of their song (they really are misnamed birds!).

Not long after, people called out that an owl had flown over their heads. It made another pass and then perched in a maple beside us.

The little fellow never called back and eventually made another pass overhead before vanishing into the woods.

The final count of three seen and four heard owls (a second Barred Owl was heard) made this one of the most successful Owl Prowls ever.

Participants were also treated to a star-drenched night, shooting stars and howling coyotes.

If you have never heard an owl, try listening along quiet backroads. Or next year join the Macnamara outing. I think you’ll find it to be a real hoot!

Rural Root’s spring play marks 10 years of entertaining Nicole d’Entremont Rural Root Theatre Company

Arts - When the lights go up on the Rural Root stage on April 30, the moment will mark an important milestone in West Carleton community theatre.

That’s because the troupe’s spring comedy, Things My Mother Taught Me, will kick off the start of their 10th anniversary season.

Member Bruce Buie, who plays one of the hilariously drunken dads in the play, has been involved with Rural Root since its early days.

“It’s very gratifying that we’ve come this far. In 10 years, we have put on many successful plays and we’ve had some very dedicated people involved,” says Buie, a resident of MacLaren’s Landing.

“I’m very happy to be involved in this play because it’s challenging me as an actor. I have to be able to deliver my lines, while seeming like I’m not

too sure of my lines because of my drunken state.”

‘New’ is a common theme for this production. Veteran actor Jen Boucher is working behind the scenes as director for the very first time. Audiences will remember Boucher from her role as the 1920s singing starlet, Janet Van de Graff, in last spring’s sold-out musical, The Drowsy Chaperone.

“I’m very excited to be transitioning from the role of actor to director. The transition has been smooth because I have an excellent and experienced production team,” she says.

Founded by Helen and Martin Weeden, together with local theatre lovers, the Rural Root Theatre Company has had a proud history of bringing plays to West Carleton audiences.

Productions run at the Constance and Buckham’s Bay Community Centre in the spring and fall.

Among the reasons for the troupe’s success has been their ability to stage

Another important ingredient has been Rural Root’s ability to attract talent on stage and behind-the-scenes year after year. New member, Greg Geisler,

who plays Gabe, is from Stittsville.

“It’s a close-knit and friendly environment,” he says. “There is an awesome energy coming from the actors and the audience.

“As much as we give to the audience, they give back and it just makes the show that much better. That’s one thing I really enjoy about theatre.”

As Boucher points out, keeping audiences engaged is all about bringing the best talent to the stage - new or experienced. That’s exactly what she has done for Things My Mother Taught Me. “The casting was a huge part of making this play come together,” she says. “Based on the people we got and their capabilities, it has set the stage for how comical this play will be.

“We also have some very experienced people with costumes and backstage. It’s easy to describe the vision and have talented people like that run with it.”

As assistant director, Fitzroy Harbour’s Kellie Shrimpton plays an important supporting role to Boucher.

She last appeared on stage in the fall farce, Let’s Murder Marsha.

“It’s really interesting to look at things from the other side of the table.

Watching how everybody’s character develops through the weeks is very rewarding,” she explains.

Shrimpton, who is also a member of the Rural Root board of directors, is thrilled to be part of a longstanding tradition of community theatre.

“This spring play, which promises to be hilarious, is a nice opportunity to celebrate Rural Root’s 10 years,” she says. “So many volunteers have put a lot of effort and hours into this group over the years. I’m happy to be a part of that celebration.”

The show runs from April 30 to May 3 and May 8 and 9 at the Constance and Buckham’s Bay Community Centre. Ticket prices are $15 for Friday and Saturday nights, and $12 for all other performances. Show times start at 7:30 p.m. For tickets, visit ruralroot.org/tmmtm.

Breadventure: a new club based in West Carleton Anglican Parish Of Pakenham Services Sunday April 13/14 9:00 Am – Palm Sunday St. John’s, - Special Memory Book Service 10:30 Am St. Mark’s, Pakenham

Lauryn Rochon-Kaiser Breadventure Press Reporter

Lifestyle - The West Carleton 4-H Breadventure Club held its first meeting on Feb. 8 at the Galetta Hall.

Two 4-H leaders, Carolyn Styles and Melody Rochon, started the meeting with a quick introduction. There are 14 members who will be participating in this new club.

In order to get to know each other, we played an ice-breaker game where half the participants had to guess what type of bread they were by taking clues from the other participants.

We taped cards depicting different types of bread on the members’ foreheads, and others had to give them clues and answer any questions until they guessed their bread type.

We then went into the kitchen to start making whole wheat twist loaves. We mixed the ingredients, kneaded the dough, rolled it out, twisted the dough into shape and put it into the bread pan. We then placed it in a cold oven with a pot of boiling water for 45 minutes to help it rise.

While the bread was baking, we held the elections for the executive. Victoria Eastman

It was decided that a different club secretary would record the minutes for each meeting, which would allow for six different secretaries to record the events, letting more members have a chance to be an executive member.

After the elections, we sampled the warm breads with some fun butter spreads. The bread was a great hit with all of the members and parents.

The meeting was then adjourned.

The second Breadventure Club meeting was held Feb. 23 at the Galetta Hall.

The meeting began right away with the creation of a simple white bread. This bread was very time-consuming to make.

The dough was prepared ahead of time. We were taught some tricks about rising and kneading.

The bread dough was prepared and placed in the oven to bake. While the bread was bak-

ing, the members were divided into two groups to create our second bread project, French bread.

While letting the dough rise and bake, the members played some ice-breaker games including a brain teaser game. We all enjoyed warm, fresh white bread and French bread before adjourning the meeting.

March 9 was the date for the third West Carleton Breadventure Club meeting at the Galetta Hall.

ment Day expectations, set for April 27, we took a quick test to see how much we had learned from the meeting.

We returned to the kitchen to sample our homemade crescent rolls. Carolyn Styles had quickly prepared some store-bought crescent rolls to compare with

the homemade rolls that we had just prepared.

All of the members agreed that the homemade rolls were much better, even though they took more time to prepare. The meeting was then adjourned and the members and parents feasted on the buns and rolls.

MPPâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s bill would force drivers to clean snow oďŹ&#x20AC; cars News - Renfrew-NipissingPembroke MPP John Yakabuski has introduced a private membersâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; bill at Queenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Park designed to make Ontarioâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s roadways safer during the winter months.

The bill, introduced March 26, aims to tackle the problem

of ice and snow dislodging from moving vehicles that can result in personal injury and property damage. â&#x20AC;&#x153;As a person who puts a lot of miles on the odometer, Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve often witnessed chunks of ice flying off cars and trucks during the winter months,â&#x20AC;? ex-

plained Yakabuski. â&#x20AC;&#x153;What really crystallized the need for this bill was hearing from a constituent named Gord Stickles whose minivan was struck by a sheet of ice up to five inches thick and 53 feet long from a tractor trailer.

What could have been a fatal

incident fortunately only resulted in minor injuries and a wrecked van, but highlighted the need for this requirement.â&#x20AC;?

Currently, there are no requirements in the Highway Traffic Act compelling drivers to clean off their vehicles.

Yakabuskiâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Private Membersâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;

Bill, if passed, would provide police officers the tools to charge offenders and include provisions to fine drivers who fail to do so.

With the bill tabled in the Legislature, Yakabuski is hoping to secure all-party support to see the changes implement-

ed before another winter arrives on Ontarioâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s roadways. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The goal of this bill is to make our roads saferâ&#x20AC;? said Yakabuski. â&#x20AC;&#x153;If this issue can be addressed more quickly by the Minister of Transportation, reintroducing my bill as government legislation, I will give it my blessing. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Ultimately, this is an issue of highway safety,â&#x20AC;? he concluded.

Science cafĂŠ focuses on family farms Jessica Cunha jessica.cunha@metroland.com

News - An upcoming science cafĂŠ will focus on building sustainable

family farms with a spotlight on access to healthy local food.

Moe Garahan, the executive director of Just Food, will speak at an upcoming Science CafĂŠ Kanata

event on Tuesday, April 15 about her new program, the Just Food Farm School. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Just Foods has a number of programs related to food security,â&#x20AC;? said

Garahan was part of the founding team for the Good Food Box program in the city and taken leadership roles organizing at regional, provincial and national levels on food and farming issues.

The cafĂŠ is a free event â&#x20AC;&#x201C; designed to be an informal gathering for anyone who is interested in learning more about the eveningâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s topic â&#x20AC;&#x201C; and will take place from 7 to 8 p.m. at Zakâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Diner in the Signature Centre.

The gathering is not a long lecture with a passive audience listening to an expert, said Collins. Instead, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a dynamic, two-way interaction between a specialist and the public.

And since 2014 is the UN Year of the Family Farm, the meeting couldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; be better timed, said Collins.

The goal of the April meeting, Collins said, is to bring a local focus back into consumer habits. â&#x20AC;&#x153;If people are still interested in eating locally, then there are still opportunities for the family farm to continue to survive,â&#x20AC;? said Collins. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The West Carleton area is a strong farming community.â&#x20AC;?

She added thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a farmer in Quebec who runs a sustainable family farm on 0.61 hectares (1.5 acres) of land. â&#x20AC;&#x153;He and his wife run a small market, that is their livelihood,â&#x20AC;? said Collins. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s been doing it for five years and heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s doing a wonderful job.â&#x20AC;?

For more information, visit smartcityscience.com, email Collins at Val@SmartCityScience.com or call 613-406.9145.

Val Collins, executive director of Smart City Science and the founder of the science cafĂŠ. â&#x20AC;&#x153;She can talk about the successes and the challenges that small family farms are facing.â&#x20AC;?

Kanata woman wins $48 million Blair Edwards blair.edwards@metroland.com

News - She bought the ticket on a whim.

It was Friday, March 28, the end of another work week, and Tina Ferrone was shopping for groceries during her lunch break at Your Independent Grocer in Billings Bridge Plaza.

The 42-year-old Kanata woman had never purchased a lottery ticket before in her life, but the lotteryâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s grand prize seemed too good pass up, she said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;(My husband and I) saw the commercial, it was like $48 million,â&#x20AC;? said Ferrone. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I thought, â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;I have to pick up a few groceries, I might as well pick up a ticket.â&#x20AC;&#x2122;â&#x20AC;?

The next morning, Ferrone was drying her hair and listening to the radio, when she heard that the weekly drawâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s grand prize winner was won by someone in Ottawa. She walked her golden retriever and at around 3

p.m. headed down to the Shoppers Drug Mart at the Signature Centre in Kanata Lakes.

She needed to pick up a few items anyway. Might as well check the ticket, she thought.

When she checked her numbers at the lotto self-check kiosk, the machine printed out the numbers four, eight and a whole lot of zeros, too many to count. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I thought it said $48,000,â&#x20AC;? said Ferrone. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It was a lot of zeros and said â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;big winnerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; in big bold letters.â&#x20AC;?

So she checked her ticket again. And then again.

Finally, she decided to check her ticket with a front counter clerk at Shoppers.

There was a large line-up, and she didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t want to draw attention to herself, so Ferrone waited until everyone left and then handed her ticket to the cashier. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I think I just won a lot of money, so can we be discreet?â&#x20AC;? she asked.

When the cashier scanned

the ticket, big noises suddenly erupted from the machine, along with a message asking the woman to remain at the counter as an Ontario Lottery and Gaming Commission representative would soon contact her at the store.

Ferrone asked to use the store phone and called her husband of four years, Liam McGee. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I told my husband to get his butt over there because I won a lot of money,â&#x20AC;? said Lisa.

After her husband arrived, the store phone rang, and after verifying her ticket number and identity, the representative told her she was the grand prize winner of $48 million. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I had to give my phone to my husband to talk to the OLG rep, because I couldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t breathe or function,â&#x20AC;? said Ferrone.

Ferrone said the money comes at a good time in the life of the couple, who have three children. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Liam has been off work for two years while battling can-

cer,â&#x20AC;? she said in a press release. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s in remission now and weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re excited for the good times to begin.â&#x20AC;?

Ferrone said she hasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t made any plans to quit her job as an events co-ordinator, but she already has a few ideas on how to spend her windfall. For the past few years, she has been drawing up plans to open a yoga studio in Kanata. McGee wants to buy a new truck, an upgraded

More delays than last year, motorists warned Carp Road overpass work to affect traffic Laura Mueller laura.mueller@metroland.com

News – Ottawa residents should brace for an even busier road construction season than last year, the city says.

From highway lane restrictions and ramp closures to

road resurfacing and the complete closure of Belfast Road and St. Joseph Boulevard, the upcoming road works are sure to put more bumps in your commute than last year, said Phil Landry, director of traffic operations.

The message again this year

is clear: walk, cycle or take the bus instead.

OC Transpo is adding a big boost to ridership capacity, especially in the east end, to account for anticipated traffic snarls. There will be space for 5,200 riders in the morning peak and 4,600 riders on the way home from work between the downtown and Orleans.

This year, 540 buses will have bike racks.

Public Meetings All public meetings will be held at Ottawa City Hall, 110 Laurier Avenue West, unless otherwise noted. For a complete agenda and updates, please sign up for e-mail alerts or visit Public Meetings and Notices on ottawa.ca, or call 3-1-1.

Landry said commuters have been spared what would have been the most massive construction headache to date: all-day lane restrictions the construction contractor proposed for eight weeks on Highway 417. The city rejected that outright, Landry said.

“It would create unimaginable delays and was unacceptable for the city and residents,” he said.

Instead, the Queensway will be reduced to two lanes between Nicholas Street and the split only on weeknights and on weekends from 9 p.m. on Friday to 6 a.m. on Monday for six weeks starting in late May. “The work between Nicholas and the split continues to be our single biggest challenge with respect to overall mobility throughout the city this year with impacts being felt to the east and west well outside of the project’s limits,” Landry said.

Queensway ramp closures between Nicholas and the split will also make motorists’ lives more difficult throughout the summer.

Commuters in the west end will also have to grapple with the reduction of the Carp Road overpass starting in April. It will be reduced to a single lane alternating directions while the

The Castlefrank Road eastbound on-ramp to Highway 417 will be closed for a month starting in May. Overall, the city will spend $127 million on 80 products to renew roads and utilities or build new infrastructure representing 50 kilometres of roads in total. Four million dollars of

that is slated to improve congested intersections, while $2 million is dedicated exclusively to 13 projects to build 6.5 km of new cycling facilities.

Some road construction budgets also include cycling facilities.

The spring roadwork season will kick off with street sweeping starting April 14.

News – The Ministry of Natural Resources is reminding anglers to check local ice conditions before heading onto the ice to fish as spring weather has finally arrived.

Ice conditions can be deceptive and variable. Always remember: • Ice does not freeze at a uniform thickness across most lakes and rivers. This can be hazardous at the start of the winter season when near-shore ice is often much thicker and safer than ice further out. Check thickness regularly with a spud bar or auger as you move further out on the ice.

• Not all ice is created equal. Ice that has formed over flowing water, springs, pressure cracks, old ice holes or around the mouths of rivers and streams can be weaker than surrounding ice.

• Clear blue ice is the strongest.

White or opaque ice is much weaker. Ice that has a honeycombed look, common during thaws or in the spring, should be avoided.

Large Bright

The city will also spend more than $51 million to repave roads this year. The rough pothole season took a toll on roads, but no additional work is planned because of the pothole-filled spring. However, the city re-arranged the schedule to repave some streets sooner, Landry said.

Bumpy Highway 174 will be resurfaced this spring and summer.

Some road projects that begin last year, including on Rideau Street, Elgin Street, Montreal Road, Queen Street and Sussex Avenue, Trim Road, the Hunt Club interchange, the Minto Bridges and the Jockvale Bridge will continue this season.

R0012559748

By far the longest-running traffic impact will be the twoyear complete closure of Belfast Road between Coventry Road and Trainyards, Landry said. Tremblay Road will remain open, but the long-term closure is needed for construction on the depot for light-rail trains, in addition to the rehabilitation of the road and bridge.

It’s not the only long-term closure: St. Joseph Boulevard, a major commercial artery in Orléans, will be completely shut down all summer, and Lees Avenue on Old Ottawa East will be closed for 12 weeks in the fall while the Highway 417

overpass is replaced.

Five kilometres of Baseline Road is also set to be resurfaced between Woodroffe Avenue and Prince of Wales Drive.

Greenbank Road will be widened south of Fallowfield Road starting in May and continuing into the fall of 2015.

Churchill Avenue will be under construction between Carling and Byron avenues.

The MacDonald Cartier Bridge to Gatineau will see lane reductions this year as the federal government undertakes some rehabilitation work.

Work on the Orléans water main will resume, affecting a number of roads throughout the east end.

West Carleton Review EMC - Thursday, April 10, 2014 23

CITY OF OTTAWA CLASS ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT COMBINED SEWAGE STORAGE TUNNEL NOTICE OF FILING OF ADDENDUM In February 2013, the City of Ottawa completed a ‘Schedule C’ Class Environmental Assessment (EA) to develop a preferred solution and functional design for additional storage of combined sewage in the ultimate combined sewer area of Ottawa. In 2013, Combined Sewage Storage Tunnel (CSST) Environmental Study Report (ESR) was completed.

The preferred design of the CSST consists of an east-west tunnel (EWT) through the downtown core from LeBreton Flats to New Edinburgh Park and a north-south tunnel (NST) along Kent Street from Catherine Street to the existing outfall north of Wellington Street. The 2013 ESR concluded that the preferred design for the NST would include a construction staging area in St. Laurent Square.

After consultation took place during preliminary design of the CSST in 2014, it was determined that the CSST could be extended south to Chamberlain Street for an alternative construction staging area for the NST. The resulting change in the preferred construction staging area requires additional property. An addendum is required to evaluate the potential environmental implications.

Fishing & Outdoor show a success

That Hunting and Fishing Store from Richmond, Ont., is a regular participant at the Carp Valley Fishing & Outdoor Show.

The store salesmen include Robert Lavigne, with this Browning A5 12-guage shotgun used for geese and ducks, and Tom Wood.

“It’s a good show, and it’s right in our backyard,” said Lavigne. See more photos on page 32.

Roland Bertoli has been attending the Valley Fishing & Outdoor Show for about 10 years. He showcases some of his rifles from his Centre d’entreposage d’armes business in Laval, Que.

Joel Theriault from Nemegosenda Lake Lodge in northern Ontario speaks to Jamie Affleck of Carleton Place. The lodge was among several companies at the show offering guided tours for hunters or fishermen. “I can’t believe this show,” said Affleck, who was impressed by the Valley Fishing & Outdoor Show’s wide variety of information and merchandise. “It’s amazing.”

Arnprior Farmers’ Market set to return Community – The Arnprior Farmers’ Market will be back next month, this year under the guidance of the Arnprior Agricultural Society.

The society, which organizes the Arnprior Fair each year, took over stewardship of the farmers’ market effective Jan. 1. Now governed by cochairs Scott Brum and Joe Wilson, the Arnprior Farmers’ Market has an exciting year ahead, planning for more vendors and produce than in previous years. The Arnprior Farmers’ Market, to be located on the fairgrounds on Galvin Street, is scheduled to open Saturday, May 24 and will run every Saturday thought to Oct. 11, operating from 8 a.m. to 1 p.m.

Live music is planned for the opening on May 24, and the first of three garage sales is slated to occur May 31.

The community will have opportunity to buy locally grown foods and locally produced products, which will assist in stimulating the local economy. According to research, every $10 spent on local produce and products puts $4.50 back into the local economy.

A new website, arnpriormarket. com , is up and running, as well as a Facebook page.

Anyone interested in becoming a vendor is encouraged to contact the Arnprior Farmers’ Market soon as spaces are filling up quickly.

The City of Ottawa will be marking National Wildlife Week with the second session of its Wildlife Speakers Series on Friday, April 11 at 7pm in Andrew S. Haydon Hall (Council Chambers) at City Hall, 110 Laurier Avenue West. The topic of this session is Backyard Biodiversity: Welcoming nature into your yard, not your home.

The featured guest speakers are Sarah Kirkpatrick-Wahl, Conservation Coordinator, from Nature Canada, Canada’s oldest nature conservation charity, and Bill Dowd, CEO of Skedaddle Humane Wildlife Control, Canada’s largest wildlife control company that partners with SPCAs/ Humane Societies and animal control departments in communities across Canada. Ms. Kirkpatrick-Wahl is a conservation biologist, who is currently working on the NatureHood program, which aims to connect people with nature in urban environments – right in their backyards. Mr. Dowd has more than 25 years of experience in helping people live with wildlife around residential settings. He is respected as an expert in the field.

In addition to the presentations, there will be a nature slideshow and an environmental exposition from 6-9pm in Jean Pigott Place for residents to learn more about Ottawa’s wildlife and natural environment and local environmental initiatives.

The City will hold two more events in the Wildlife Speakers Series this year. The series is intended to increase residents’ knowledge and appreciation of wildlife and promote coexistence through understanding and respect. All of these events are free of charge.

Open doors for cancer canvassers, society urges News – Cancer campaign canvassers will be out in full force this month throughout West Carleton.

The Canadian Cancer Society appreciates the generous support of West Carleton resi-

dents during Daffodil Month (April).

The residential canvass campaign is so important because every three minutes another Canadian is faced with fighting cancer.

Throughout April, volunteers in West Carleton and across Ontario will be working together to raise funds for the Canadian Cancer Society.

Support Canadians living with cancer, urges society officials.

“Make a donation, buy a daf-

fodil pin and unite behind those living with cancer this April.”

The Canadian Cancer Society does everything it can to prevent cancer, save lives and support people living with cancer.

It is only with the support of its volunteers and donors that the society will continue to save lives and support people living with cancer right now.

Canadian Cancer Society local fundraising co-ordinator Christina Thompson, who is overseeing the residential

canvass, explains that canvassers will have a kit identifying them.

Donors are entitled to a tax receipt for any donation, she adds.

To make a donation, you can also visit cancer.ca or call the Ottawa office at 613-723-1744.

The society is always thankful to accept more volunteer canvassers to lighten the load of those already given routes.

It is also looking for daffodil pin sellers at a few locations in Stittsville.

Seven-year-old cancer patient Michael Meehan made quick friends with Gov.-Gen. David Johnston at the official launch of the Canadian Cancer Society’s Daffodil Campaign on April 1. Meehan and Johnston compared ties, talked about dinosaurs and played with daffodils in the greenhouses of Rideau Hall. The campaign sells daffodil pins and fresh daffodils to help raise funds for cancer research.

Meanwhile, the provincial government announced last week that thousands more children across Ontario are being given access to free dental care.

As of April 1, 70,000 more kids from low-income families can get dental services including regular cleanings, diagnostics and treatment through the newly expanded

Healthy Smiles Ontario program.

As a result, over 460,000 children are now eligible for dental treatment through the province’s low-income dental programs. Starting August 2015, six publicly funded dental programs will be integrated into one program to provide seamless enrolment and make it easier for eligible children and youth to receive the dental care they need.

Providing more children and youth with access to free dental care supports Ontario’s Action Plan for Health Care by delivering the right care, at the right time and in the right place, says the government.

Expanding dental care to low-income children and youth is part of Ontario’s Poverty Reduction Strategy.

One out of five Ontarians cite cost as a barrier to visiting a dentist.

Other recent provincial initiatives aimed at helping Ontario’s children grow up healthier, include introducing legislation to forces posting of calorie information on menus of large chain restaurants, creating more than 200 new breakfast and morning meal programs, and banning the use of tanning beds for youth under the age of 18.

Hospice Care Ottawa to honour memory of local man at hike News - Hundreds of area residents will set out on the 10th annual Hike for Hospice Palliative Care in support of Hospice Care Ottawa on the afternoon of Sunday, May 4.

Many will be thinking of Craig Gordon.

Gordon passed away on April 11, 2013, at the too-young age of 56. He was a partner at the KPMG Kanata office (formerly Cox Merritt & Co.) and had worked in the community for almost 30 years. He was a selfless and dedicated contributor to multiple sports organizations and charities including Hospice Care Ottawa.

While the hikers will be walking, a significant number of them will be thinking of skating – for that is how so many fondly recall Gordon, whose memory the 2014 Hike, which takes place at the Ruddy-Shenkman Hospice at 110 McCurdy Dr., will honour.

Gordon’s passing was remarkably sudden. He had been diagnosed with chronic

lymphocytic leukemia in 2006 during a routine blood test, but progress had been so slow that no one outside his family was aware of the condition.

In early April he was still playing hockey. On April 10 he was at his desk filing tax returns for clients. The following morning he was dead from a rampaging infection.

“We knew the underlying condition was serious,” said Ann Gordon. “We were expecting a slow decline and never thought that something could happen so suddenly.”

Known to his teammates as “Flash” – as in the comic book superhero ‘Flash Gordon’ – Craig was the driving force behind several recreational hockey groups.

Though he had never played organized hockey growing up, Craig was an incredibly gifted and swift skater and had become a skilled player over the three decades

in which he played and organized teams.

His passing came just weeks before his youngest child Erica – the Gordons have two older boys, Andrew and Duncan – was to graduate from high school.

At the funeral, the children spoke warmly and fondly of their father’s renowned sense of humour – dry, mischievous – and of being out in the boat at the family cottage and playing euchre at night.

He was particularly proud of the fact that years after he had coached his sons through the

CRAIG GORDON various minor hockey levels, he was joined on his Monday night team by Duncan and Andrew.

Like his great hero, Gordie Howe, he was finally able to

play on the same line as his boys.

Hockey friends spoke of his dressing-room wit, his speed on the ice and his lifelong cheering for the Detroit Red Wings.

All knew that they themselves might not still be playing were it not for the one person always willing to organize – right down to bringing the pucks and making sure there were two goaltenders.

Colleagues talked about his dedication to work, his oldfashioned values, his honesty and his sense of fun. He was truly a beloved personality.

He was a dear friend to all.

If you would like to support Hospice Care Ottawa’s Hike for Hospice Palliative Care in the memory of Craig Gordon, you can pledge online by supporting the Craig Gordon Team or form your own team by visiting hospicecareottawa.ca.

All monies raised by Hospice Care Ottawa’s Hike for Hospice Palliative Care will go directly to support the programs and services provided at the May Court Hospice, Central West Hospice and the Ruddy-Shenkman Hospice without charge to their client’s and families.

Spring art show features work of budding artists Sherry Haaima Sherry.haaima@metroland.com

Community – In a quaint studio home on Carss Street in Arnprior, wonderful things are happening.

Artist Marg Lamendeau has been quietly painting, working and teaching for many years and this weekend the public has a chance to see just what everyone’s been up to.

The Budding Artists Spring Art Show and Sale will be held at the Arnprior Mall April 1113. Lamendeau will be showcasing her most recent pieces of art, along with that of more

than 30 of her talented students.

Lamendeau hosts five classes every week, catering to artists of all ages and skill levels.

“Everyone works on their own subject matter and at their own pace. Some people are fast and some take their time,” said Lamendeau, who works individually with each artist to help them reach their goals.

A peaceful and encouraging atmosphere makes all the difference, says Lamendeau. That’s seconded by her students.

“It’s very relaxing and therapeutic,” she said. “It’s not like a high brow serious art class. We

have a lot of fun.”

“She’s a great teacher,” said student Sue Chick. “We have great fun.”

Lamendeau has been teaching classes in this forum for about seven years. She came to the area in the 1970s after earning a Queens University fine arts degree and was a one-time teacher at Arnprior District High School. Then came time spent as a private artist working and selling locally.

“The pendulum has kind of swung back to being a teacher,” said Lamendeau.

It’s a role she relishes.

“I really enjoy instructing.

It’s wonderful to see the progress,” she said.

The upcoming show is a great experience for her students.

“It’s really nice to have a venue where the artists can display their work and get feedback from friends, family and the public,” said Lamendeau.

Many of the art pieces will be on sale with a percentage of the proceeds being donated to the Neighbourlink Fountain.

Members of the public and meet the artists Friday from 6:30 to 9:30 p.m. in the old Pet Valu store in the shopping centre.

Calabogie Ski Racing Clubâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s talented racers celebrate after every racer placed in the top-10 at the Provincials. In the back, from left, are Jeremy Van Grunsven of Odessa, Sam Alexander of Carp, Luke Hansen of Renfrew, and coaches Shawn Clarke and Jay Knox; in the middle Louise Stonham of Arnprior, Wesley Matthews of Calabogie, and Carson Lefebvre of Calabogie; and in front Lucas Zohr of Golden Lake, Noah Matthews of Calabogie, and Wyatt Campbell-Brunke of Renfrew.

Carp U12 skier wins gold Anne Lefebvre Calabogie Ski Racing Club

Sports - Calabogie Ski Racing Clubâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s smallest competitors concluded their season in triumph.

Some of the U10s and U12s elected to travel to Huntsvilleâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Hidden Valley Ski Club for the inaugural U10/U12 Provincial Championships March 2223. Ski racers attended from across Northern and Southern Ontario.

Calabogieâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s alpine athletes dominated the competition, with every single athlete landing in the top-10.

Wyatt Campbell-Brunke of Renfrew, Noah Matthews of Calabogie and Louise Stonham of Arnprior ably represented the U10s. Wyatt was the winner of the panel slalom and third in the giant slalom, Noah collected silver in the GS, and Louise, skiing against

bigger and older competitors, was seventh and eighth in her races.

The U12 contingent included Sam Alexander of Carp, Lucas Zohr of Golden Lake, Wesley Matthews of Calabogie, Luke Hansen of Renfrew, Carson Lefebvre of Calabogie and Jeremy Van Grunsven of Odessa.

After a good ďŹ rst day in which Sam, Lucas, Luke and Jeremy all placed in the top-10 in GS, with Wesley and Carson each having a top-10 time on one run, the boys ripped up the panel slalom course. It was a complete podium sweep for Calabogie â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Sam in ďŹ rst, Lucas in second, Wes in third, Luke in fourth and Carson in sixth.

Jeremy also had one run that was a top-ďŹ ve ďŹ nish.

These talented racers certainly put Calabogie on the map, and wrapped up the season with a bang.

News - Rideau Carleton Raceway and horse owners are breathing a sigh of relief after the province conďŹ rmed a $26.5-million lifeline to keep racing alive.

The new funding program announced funding on March 31 to replace the Slots at Racetracks program, which the province axed two years ago. While the $26.5 million over ďŹ ve years wonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t match the old funding, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s enough to keep racing going, said Alex Lawryk, spokesman for the raceway. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a positive step, but itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not what we had,â&#x20AC;? Lawryk said.

Before the old funding program was cancelled, Rideau Carleton hosted 154 races a year. With the new $5.25 million annual funding for ďŹ ve years, the raceway is looking to offer 90 races this season.

The raceway has only been able to continue hosting racing for the past two years because it had money from the previous slots pro-

gram leftover after the funding was cancelled, Lawryk said. That money has now run out, so without the new funding, Rideau Carleton would have only offered â&#x20AC;&#x153;a few dozenâ&#x20AC;? racing opportunities each year. Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s simply because the owners love and are committed to racing, which has been part of the raceway for 50 years, Lawryk said.

The two-year gap in funding and the uncertainty of the racewayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s future until now have left deep wounds in the local horse-racing industry, Lawryk said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;A lot of people, after two years, have left the business,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;There are mixed feelings. People are quite interested in continuing, quite excited about the possibility of continuing the industry in Ottawa, but itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a lot less than it was. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We basically have to re-ignite the interest and rebuilding,â&#x20AC;? he said.

Lawryk said the raceway hasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t been told about a long-term strategy for

funding horse racing after the ďŹ ve-year funding runs out, but at least in Rideau Carletonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s case, the facility is hoping to have a casino open by then.

Last summer, city council voted to limit any expansion of gambling in Ottawa to the raceway site with the 21 gaming tables that has already been approved as part of a pilot project, and the existing 1,250 slot machines.

Rideau Carleton is expecting â&#x20AC;&#x153;some effortâ&#x20AC;? to be made to integrate horse racing into the site when it begins operating as a casino, but the province has yet to announce the details of that integration plan.

Additional activity at the raceway â&#x20AC;&#x201C; along with more funding â&#x20AC;&#x201C; is what Rideau Carleton is hoping for, Lawryk said.

The wild card will be which political party is overseeing the program after the next provincial election, if a vote is called soon, he said.

Lawryk said he is expecting an announcement

with more information in the next month.

The company that owns Rideau Carleton did express interest in being selected by the OLG to operate the future casino at their site, but the decision on short listing qualiďŹ ed bidders has been delayed, Lawryk said.

If Rideau Carleton Entertainment wins the contract, Lawryk said a casino expansion would be a long-term certainty. â&#x20AC;&#x153;(The OLG) originally wanted the site to grow to 2,000 slot machines and three times the number of tables â&#x20AC;&#x201C; something like 60 gaming tables (as part of the gambling modernization plan),â&#x20AC;? Lawryk said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;If the utilization of the 1,250 slot machines grows signiďŹ cantly, there is no reason why (the OLG) couldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t re-approach council and ask for a zoning change to ask for a couple hundred more slots. â&#x20AC;&#x153;In that 20 years, Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m sure there will be a need to review the numbers,â&#x20AC;?

Lawryk said.

Football club axes Big Joe’s Mufferaw Derek Dunn derek.dunn@metroland.com

News – Hey, hey: remember the big man who put out a forest fire halfway between “Renfrew and ol’ Arnprior”?

He did it with five spit balls all the way from Smiths Falls?

Apparently his last name is offensive to some and, therefore, won’t be appearing on the back of a football mascot’s jersey.

Heave hi ho.

Just three days after naming its mascot Big Joe Mufferaw - the folk legend immortalized

by Arnprior author Bernie Bedore and folk singer Stompin’ Tom Connors – the newly revived Ottawa CFL team short-

ened its new mascot’s name to ‘Big Joe’ in English and ‘Grand Jos’ in French.

Redblacks president Jeff Hunt said in a March 31 press release that some Francophone football fans from Gatineau and Eastern Ontario, which make up 35 per cent of the fan base, complained about the name.

Bedore’s fictional lumberjack was inspired by Joseph Montferrand, a real life Outaouais logger and defender of Francophone rights in the early 1800s.

“We unintentionally offended some with the original name and we sincerely apologize for that,” Hunt said. “We hope to create a fan base that

ADAM KVETON/METROLAND

Judy Bedore of Arnprior and the Ottawa RedBlacks football team’s newly named mascot, Big Joe Mufferaw, greet excited children at a French public school in Kanata on March 28. Three days later the name was changed to Big Joe because of complaints from some Francophones in the region.

have long loved Mufferaw, Judy said. She knows it because she lived it – going back to 1962 when her father’s first book came out, all the way to six years ago this June when he died.

She is hoping folks on that side of the river will speak in his defence.

Many questions have yet to be answered.

Will the Stompin’ Tom song be featured at RedBlacks games? Will the planned new series of Big Joe Mufferaw books go ahead? How to explain to the original supporters that half the name has been axed?

is unified in its support for the RedBlacks and we will continue to strive to do our best in that regard.”

There is no mention of how many complaints were received. The name was chosen after overwhelming support was revealed in a survey.

Bedore’s daughter, Judy, still lives in Arnprior and owns the rights to Big Joe Mufferaw. The team and Judy were to join in new promotional ventures.

She is saying little at this point, inviting folks to stay tuned for a measured response.

But when reached for comment April 1, Judy said the phone hasn’t stopped ringing.

She is not upset with Hunt directly, just disappointed there are still people out there who want to divide the Ottawa Valley community.

“It’s unfortunate, but it’s not over, it’s not done,” Judy said. “Watch for updates and promotions about Mufferaw.

I will be setting the record straight on the history and methodology that created Big Joe.” She said both the person and character are real in their own way and deserve to be

Voted The Best Low Rise Condominiums in Ottawa

Only three storeys in height, eQ Homes’ exclusive Foxwood Collection condominiums are much more intimate than a high-rise. And with just four units per floor, every suite is a corner suite, loaded with luxury features and square footage ranging from 1,040 up to 1,430.

That’s why Foxwood Collection won the coveted 2013 SAMMY Award for Best Condo Low-rise, as presented by the Greater Ottawa Home Builders’ Association.

Model T kicks the ghost temporarily Celebrating Volunteers Volunteers are an integral part of the Children’s Aid Society of Ottawa’s (CASO) work, generously donating approximately 30,000 hours of their time each year. Volunteer tasks are varied and flexible, matching interests and skills with volunteer positions and working with people’s busy schedules.

While some of CASO’s volunteer opportunities require a moderate time commitment, Special Assignments allow for more flexibility and can include: organizing, event management, providing entertainment, or acting as photographers at events.

Volunteer Drivers support children and youth in care by providing a safe non-judgmental space where they can comfortably sit in silence or speak with an attentive listener. Child Access Volunteers similarly help to provide a safe space by supervising visits between parents and children.

Pre-School Volunteers and Tutor/ Mentors provide more formalized guidance. Pre-School Volunteers assist professional staff, guiding children from three months to five years through a variety of weekly programs. Tutors/ Mentors, under the supervision of the case worker, help school-aged children with subjects like math, english and science, encouraging students to develop their interests and build educational goals.

Volunteering with CASO is a learning opportunity for the volunteers themselves as they undergo training, work collaboratively with fellow volunteers and staff and develop relationships with foster parents and the families we serve.

April 6-12, 2014 is National Volunteer Week, an opportunity for us to take stock of the time that volunteers across the country donate daily. We would like to take this opportunity to formally thank our volunteers for their tireless work. Their contribution to supporting children and youth in care, and the Ottawa community more broadly, makes a difference every day and every hour.

Lifestyle - “Finally!” Mother said, as Father backed the old Model T out of the drive shed where it had been sitting up on blocks since the first heavy snowfall.

That meant our trips into Renfrew no longer meant hitching up the horse and cutter, or in some cases, the team and the flat-bottom sleigh every Saturday for our weekly supplies. We were all so excited, Mother said she saw no reason why we five children couldn’t go in as well, since it was our first trip with the car that year.

It didn’t take long for us to get out of our Saturday work clothes and into our next-to-Sunday-best, wash our faces, comb our hair, and make sure our necks were clean.

Why anyone in Renfrew would give a hoot in Hades if the Haneman children had clean necks or not was a mystery to me!

The old car sure wasn’t much to look at, with one back door missing, a fender that was painted an entirely different colour from the rest of the car, and a hole as big as a pie plate in the back floor where I had to sit being

STOPPED DEAD

Father cut the gas back as we headed down Raglan Street, looking for a place to park the Model T. And suddenly, just like the run-down of a wind-up clock, the Model T gave a gasp, and stopped dead in the middle of the street.

Father shoved the gas lever up and down, pulled on the choke, and the car with a mind of its own, sat there like a big black lump of clay.

Father got out with the crank, and with the sweat pouring off his face, his arm flying off the crank on occasion, and the Model T, like a rebellious child refused to catch.

It wouldn’t have been so bad if Father had been able to steer the car into the curb, but there it sat, right in the middle of Raglan Street.

Audrey offered me a nickel if I would change places with her. She wanted on the floor so no one would see her.

I said I would consider it for a dime. All she had was a nickel, and so I stayed crouched on the floor.

Mother was fanning herself with her purse in the front seat, Emerson said he would meet us at Thacker’s Garage when Father got the car going, and Everett and Earl decided they would have a look in the Five and Ten Cent store.

Mother said everyone would stay exactly where they were! “We aren’t going to traipse all over Renfrew when we get the car going and are ready to go home,” she said.

“If we get the car going,” Audrey said, from under the silk scarf, which now covered her entire face, except for her eyes, reminding me of a pic-

Boat Motor Treatment

ture of someone from a foreign land in a book I brought home from the Renfrew Library.

A crowd had gathered on the sidewalk in front of Scott’s Hardware where the car had broken down.

Mother waved to a few of them just as if it was an everyday occurrence to be stopped dead in the middle of the main street of Renfrew!

“Nice day,” she said. The people nodded in return.

Mr. Scott came out of the store, assessed the situation, and deciding the problem was doing nothing for his business, he offered to have the two men on his staff, with the help of Father and my three brothers, start pushing the car towards Thacker’s Garage.

Mother stayed in the front seat, I got off the floor, Audrey shot down like a bullet to take my place, and the car with Father behind the wheel started slowly down Raglan Street to Thacker’s garage.

It didn’t take long for Mr. Thacker to figure out what was wrong, and he circled the car, shaking his head, kicking the tires with the toe of his boot, and telling Father the car wasn’t long for this world!

Whatever Mr. Thacker did, the car was purring like a kitten when we pulled out of the garage, and Mother said she was sure we could manage without stopping for supplies for one week, and that the best thing we could do was head for Northcote.

You couldn’t hear what Mother was saying to Father in the front seat, but he pulled into Briscoe’s General Store on the way home. She said once we stopped, since we hadn’t spent any money in Renfrew, she saw no reason why we couldn’t all have an ice cream cone.

Father wasn’t taking any chances.

While we five children and Mother traipsed into the store, Father stayed in the car with the motor running just in case the old Model T took another notion to give up the ghost.

the youngest, and from which point all I could see was the Northcote Side Road zooming by.

It was a lovely day for a first drive, Mother commented, as Father turned out of our lane, and passed Briscoe’s General Store. I could hear the purr of the engine, as he worked the lever under the steering wheel increasing the speed.

It was a bone shattering ride over the washboard road, and the dust blew into the open car like brown clouds.

My sister Audrey wisely brought a silk scarf, which she tied around her face. The rest of us covered our eyes as best we could.

Programs for Fun Fest available at seniors centre Continued from page 49

“When we launched the program, it was strictly on a ‘let’s see’ basis and I must admit it’s been exciting to see how it’s taken off. From the moment we introduced the ‘Fun Fest’ – and that’s exactly what it’s designed to be, fun from start to finish, we were amazed at how many people came to us to make sure it would be back ‘next year’.

“We listened, we brought it back, and expanded its program to include, as far as we were able, the suggestions that poured in for new activities.”

To perennial favourites such as the darts tournament followed by fish and chips at the legion, flower arranging sessions (which, due to sheer popularity have now been expanded), lawn bowling, and nine-hole golf (to mention a few) have been added such activities as square dancing, Sage Age theatre, Mah Jong, the tulip tour and yoga.

“We’re so grateful for the support and participation of local seniors’ residences who

partner with us to host some of our activities,” said Dubie, who goes on to suggest that “it would be a good idea to pick up your programs as soon as

possible so you can choose the activities you’re interested in.

That way you’ll avoid being disappointed.”

Programs are ready to be picked up from the lobby desk in the Kanata Seniors’ Centre at 2500 Campeau Dr., as well as at any participating seniors’ residences. As usual, the basic registration fee is $20, although some events carry

a small additional charge.

Cheques should be made out to the Kanata Seniors’ Council.

“There’s a sheet with a list of activities in each program booklet,” explained Liz Tucker, vice chair of the Kanata Seniors Council. “All registrants have to do is mark their selection and get it back to the council no later than Friday, April 25.”

The April 25 deadline is critical. “It’s our job to try and make sure that everybody gets their choice,” said Dubie.

“Sometimes, if too many people sign up for one activity, it’s just not possible. So I encourage everybody to pick up their programs, make their choices, and get them back to us as quickly as possible.”

For more information, contact Tucker at 613-5925585 or check out the Kanata Seniors’ Council website at kanataseniors.ca where there are details of this year’s Fun Fest as well as the extensive range of activities available at the centre.

Longtime volunteer makes a connection with her community Liz Wall Seniors at Home

Lifestyle - We all know someone, and sometimes wish we could be just like that person who always comes to work with a smile on her face, with her warm and caring personality

shining through.

Well, that is Arnprior-Braeside-McNab Seniors at Home Program’s (ABMSH) volunteer receptionist Alexis Barr.

Alexis may have one regular afternoon shift as a volunteer receptionist, but she can be counted on

to fill in an extra day or two or three when required. For this we are very grateful as our agency depends heavily on the hours that all our volunteers provide.

Why does Alexis volunteer? “I do it for several reasons; mainly for the seniors

themselves as well it is a connection to my community,” smiles Alexis.

“It feels good to know that I can make a difference in the lives of all who participate in the many programs offered by Seniors at Home, and besides that the

staff is wonderful,” she concludes with a grin.

A native of Kirkland Lake, the daughter of Alex and Grace Ardiel has two brothers and one sister. Her dad was an employee of Ontario Hydro and that meant plenty of moving for the young family.

All of Alexis’s siblings were born in different locations.

This may the reason for her appreciation of community life and her commitment to helping out where ever she can.

The various places she called home were the ‘hydro’ communities of Haileybury, North Bay, Markdale, Deep River and Stewartville.

She and husband, Art, have one son, Jeffrey, who today calls Alberta home as an employee of the oil fields.

She attended Kemptville College studying home economics, later work-

After retiring 11 years ago, she and Art now love to take

cruises. Their adventures have taken them across Canada and the U.S and to Cuba.

Their favourites are Newfoundland and Cuba and have travelled to both locations at least four times each.

She is an avid reader and member of the Golden Gem Chapter of the local Red Hat Society

Alexis will celebrate her 10th anniversary as a volunteer for ABMSH on July 19.

As well as receptionist, she volunteers for the weekly foot clinic and when requested helps out during special events planned by the fundraising co-ordinator.

Island View seeks Easter No raise for seniors for next three months basket donations Old Age Security benefit amounts are reviewed quarterly: federal government

Communuity – Island View Retirement Suites of Arnprior is seeking public donations for Easter baskets to be distributed in the community.

Island View is working with Kathy Tonkin and her volunteers of the Arnprior Food Bank to provide the Easter baskets of food and goodies for residents of the area for Easter, which is on the April 18-21 weekend this year.

Island View has been accepting donations of food items from the community since March 1. Donations for the Easter baskets recommended by the food bank are: canned ham, canned pineapple, chocolates (small boxes for adults and/or chocolate bunnies for children), instant coffee, juice boxes, canned tuna, pasta, and canned corn, peas, green beans, etc.

Island View also has a collection jar available for any monetary donations to buy last minute perishable items for the baskets, i.e. dinner rolls, fresh potatoes, carrots, butter.

On April 16, the residents of Island View and the Arnprior Food Bank will get together at 1 p.m. to sort the food and make up baskets for delivery.

News – It’s not the best timing.

Hydro and gas bills are skyrocketing, along with everything from recreation fees and water rates.

However, Employment and Social Development Canada announced last week that the Old-Age Security (OAS) rate received monthly by senior citizens was not going up April 1. No fooling.

The benefit amounts for OAS for people 65 and older from April to the end of June will remain unchanged at $551.54 per month from April 1 to June 30, 2014.

Payments under the Guaranteed Income Supplement (GIS), the Allowance and the

Allowance for the Survivor will also remain unchanged.

OAS benefit amounts are reviewed quarterly (in January, April, July and October) and revised as required to reflect increases in the cost-of-living, as measured by the Consumer Price Index (CPI) set by Statistics Canada.

OAS benefit amounts increased slightly for the first quarter of 2014, in response to an increase in the average CPI. GUARANTEE

The Old Age Security Act guarantees

that OAS benefits do not go down, even when there has been a decrease in the CPI. If the average CPI surpasses the previous level in the future, OAS benefits will go up again.

FUNDING

The Old Age Security program is funded through general tax revenues and provides a modest base for retirement.

In 2012-2013, it provided 5.2 million Canadian seniors with $40.3 billion in benefits.

FLEA MARKET

Island View Suites is also accepting donations for its annual community flea market to be held June 14 from 8 a.m. to 2 p.m. Proceeds of the sale go to the Arnprior and District and Memorial Hospital’s Partners in Caring campaign.

“I am happy to be part of a team that makes a difference whether it be here at Seniors at Home or at the hospital,” said Alexis.

“I highly recommend volun- Dr. Corrine Motluk Dr. Alan Franzmann teering. I feel I get more out of it than I give,” concluded Alexis.
