Airport open to creating noise committee Jessica Cunha

Some residents living in the Carp Ridge and Corkery areas have noticed an uptick in helicopter noise and many aren’t pleased with the constant drone.

Carp Airport manager Mark

Braithwaite said he’d be open to creating a committee of residents and airport members to address the noise issue.

“I’d be interested in sitting down with them to create a solution,” he said.

See the full story on pages 6-7

The annual Carp Fair Men’s Night yielded more than $14,000 to support those with cancer on March 24, but some highly questionable remarks came out of the otherwise positive event as well.

The West Carleton Review wrote an editorial on the incident decrying inappropriate comments without identifying who said what or what was specifically said.

The Toronto Star has since revealed that Carleton-Mississippi Mills MPP Jack MacLaren was the source of crude humour aimed at KanataCarleton MP Karen McCrimmon and her husband.

His attempt at humour reportedly silenced and disgusted many in the crowd.

The joke, referencing McCrimmon and her husband’s sexual relationship, was made by MacLaren as he addressed the crowd at the men’s night after convincing McCrimmon to come up on stage, reported the Star.

The joke, apparently taken from a raunchy Irish joke about a husband “between the legs” of his wife, was met with no applause whatsoever, said a long time Carp Fair board member to the Star.

But that’s not because it had no impact, said McCrimmon.

“They were mortified,” she said of the men’s night crowd.

“That was good to see,” said McCrimmon of the reaction. “I didn’t feel like I was wearing that on my own. They were all their with me.”

McCrimmon asks for electoral reform input Adam Kveton

to (a new election model’s) design.”

That’s the idea outlined in a newsletter McCrimmon’s office is in the process of sending.

REFORM PLEDGE

The Trudeau government has pledged to convene an allparty parliamentary committee to review a wide variety of reforms, such as ranked ballots, proportional representation, mandatory voting and online voting.

In McCrimmon’s newsletter, there is a questionnaire with 15 principles, including space for “other” ideas, which constituents can check off as being important to them.

These include things like: * “decrease in election spending,” * “reduce the power of political parties,” * “provide independent candidates an opportunity to earn a seat,” * “a system that has a higher chance of creating majority governments.”

The questionnaire then asks for a name, address and phone number, after which it can be cut out, folded and dropped in a mailbox. The questionnaire will also be available on McCrimmon’s website.

Explaining the reasoning behind doing the question-

naire based on principles rather than electoral models, McCrimmon said, “What happens when you are trying to build consensus or you are trying to get people to agree on things, sometimes people take a position and they get stuck on the position or a label or a word and I think if I ask people, ‘Well, what kind of principles would you like?’ then they won’t get stuck.”

The plan is to share the data collected from the questionnaire with Minister for Democratic Institutions Maryam Monsef, who has been charged with leading the development of a new electoral system.

“She feels the very same way (with regards to people

Response from the crowd continued thereafter, with McCrimmon saying she’s received dozens of apologies from attendees and organizers of the event.

being stuck on one position),” said McCrimmon. “She wants to understand the principles behind whatever system they end up designing.”

The results of the questionnaire will also be shared with constituents during a town hall meeting McCrimmon is setting up, scheduled for April 26, where constituents can then discuss and work towards a consensus on what kind of electoral system could work, she said.

McCrimmon said she hopes the process she is setting up will be similar to the national process yet to begin.

She said she expects the questionnaires to be in the mail early in the week of April 11.

Nearly two weeks later, McCrimmon said MacLaren apologized.

That came in the form of an email sent to her on April 6, well after McCrimmon had confronted MacLaren face-to-face, saying, “I thought (his remark) was rude and inappropriate,” she said.

The email conveyed “sincere apologies” for comments made at the Carp Fair event, said a McCrimmon staffer.

The apology says the joke was a poor attempt at humour, that it went too far and left a mark on the true purpose of the event, said the staffer.

McCrimmon said she has accepted MacLaren’s apology. MacLaren’s of-

fice did not immediately respond to a request for comment.

“This is something that needs to be dealt with and I think we’ve dealt with it,” said McCrimmon of the episode.

Asked this experience can say of gender politics in Canada, McCrimmon said, “I think it’s getting better. I do. When so many people recognize that this was inappropriate, that’s a good thing.”

However she acknowledged that it is a problem when a democratic representative is the only one in the room that doesn’t understand what is acceptable and what isn’t.

Regardless of what may come after MacLaren’s comments and the public’s response to them, McCrimmon said she hopes none of this reflects poorly on the Carp Fair.

She did add, however, that it is perhaps a time for people to reflect on who should represent them at the provincial level.

“They are going to have to decide if that’s the kind of person you want to involve in politics or not … people have a choice to make.”

Youth treatment centre receives $1.5 million Adam Kveton

adam.kveton@metroland.com

“It’s going to happen, folks.

It’s going to happen.”

Those were the words of Dave Smith, philanthropist, restaurateur and founder of the Dave Smith Youth Treatment Centre, which helps youth overcome substance abuse and other issues.

He and many others were present in Carp, at one of three Dave Smith treatment centre locations, on April 8 when Ottawa-West Nepean MPP Bob Chiarelli announced the provincial government is committing $1.5 million towards the centre’s $7.8-million project to build a 30-bed treatment centre.

“It’s going to happen,” said Smith of the new centre planned for Carp.

However Smith’s enthusiasm for the momentum of the campaign didn’t stop him from soliciting more donations.

“It could happen faster if you all open up your chequebooks,” he said to the crowd of several dozen people, who responded with laughter and nods – he is known for those sorts of com-

ments, some of them said.

However, the campaign, dubbed Dave’s Dream, really is gearing up to start construction, said the executive director of the Dave Smith Youth Treatment Centre Foundation, Stephanie MacGregor.

The foundation now has $4.5 million left to raise for the new facility. However, it is working with the federal government in the hopes that it might match provincial funding.

Even with $3 million left to raise, MacGregor said “we’re good to go” and start construction as early as next year.

While Chiarelli outlined the importance of what Smith has done to start the youth centre, the importance of the work it does was emphasized with a video about a former client of the centre – Jemma Barlas.

In it, she describes being so deep into addiction in her late teens that she often saw no reason to try and get healthy again, as there might not be anything left to save.

But with the help of the youth treatment centre, she said, she learned that she didn’t have to consume a dangerous

substance to feel OK about life.

“It’s possible to not hate yourself,” she said in the video.

Barlas, now 22, was sitting in the crowd during the funding announcement, but as others watched the video, she looked down at her knees and let out a few tears. “I felt like I conquered the world by being sober,” she said in the video, and encouraged others struggling with addiction that working to get sober again was worth it.

Derek Johnson, vice-chair of the treatment centre, referred to Barlas as a “shining example to all of us.”

People like her are why he and others are motivated to build the new facility, he said.

The new 30-bed facility will be a centralized substance abuse residential treatment centre for youth from the ages of 13 to 21, says the foundation’s website. Rather than continuing to support existing treatment centres in Stittsville, Carleton Place and Carp, which need costly repairs, the new facility will bring together all staff and programs in a single location – a 10-hectare lot just west of the Carp location.

The existing treatment centre, at its three locations, treat about 160 youths and their families every year.

There are many more youth in need that the centres are not able to treat. A centralized facility built specifically as a residential treatment centre will be more efficient and provide “exceptional care that helps heal young lives and families,” the organization says.

However it is Smith’s “compassion and passion” that has convinced politicians, health professionals and many more to take notice and do something about it, said Ottawa Centre MPP Yasir Naqvi. “We are here because we believe in you (Dave Smith),” said Naqvi.

Bringing up the often repeated phrase, “the children are our future,” Naqvi amended it, saying, “Every single child is our future.”

Smith has shown that society must pay attention and support those least likely to succeed as well, he said.

Chiarelli too lauded the achievements of Smith, saying, “The community owes you a debt of gratitude.”

There will also be an obstacle course for children, which simulates escaping a fire from a bedroom.

The station has also offered fire extinguisher training – creating small controlled fires and having attendees put them out using an extinguisher – and Datema said he hopes to offer this again.

Firefighters from Station 84 in Corkery are pitching in to help the Gainforth family with renovations to make their home wheelchair accessible.

The local station will donate all proceeds raised from its 13th annual pancake breakfast, to be held June 4, to help the Gainforths with their expenses. Firefighters will also lend a hand with the manual labour required to add a ramp at the front of the Gainforth’s Spruce Ridge house.

“They’re our neighbours, they’re literally a couple of streets over. We’d like to be there to help,” said Roelof Datema, a Corkery resident and firefighter.

“Last weekend a bunch of us went out and we demolished the old deck. The Gainforths want to build a stone-based patio with an integrated ramp. We’ll be involved with the manual labour.”

Don Gainforth was paralyzed from the shoulders down in December when a ladder he was working from collapsed beneath him. Doctors have predicted Gainforth will not regain mobility and remain a quadriplegic.

Self-employed in the construction industry, Gainforth no longer has an income and

“expenses are massive,” according to a GoFundMe set up for the family. The online donation page was created to raise $75,000 to help offset the renovation and equipment costs that are necessary for the family to remain in their current home.

Jessica Davey, Don Gainforth’s eldest daughter, posted on Facbook that the family is grateful for all the community support.

“We have been overwhelmed by the hard work and generosity that this community has shown in rallying around our family during this very difficult time. We are so incredibly grateful for your support. It’s just above and beyond. Thank you, thank you, THANK YOU!!” she wrote.

Enjoy the wonders of the Carp River in canoe adventure The Mississippi Valley Conservation Authority (MVCA), Friends of the Carp River and Trailhead Paddle Shack are teaming up to host the second ‘Canoe the Carp River’ on Sunday, May 1.

The excursion will be held between 10 a.m. and 3 p.m.

Canoes will be launched at Carp Road and Rivington Street by the bridge.

Paddlers will travel upstream as far as Huntmar Road and then return to Carp, a round trip distance of 11 kilometres, which will take about three hours at a leisurely pace. This stretch of the river showcases its natural beauty with shaded banks, wetlands and meadows that host wildlife such as turtles, river otters and herons.

No canoe? No problem.

Trailhead Paddle Shack is generously donating canoes and kayaks for the event, making Canoe the Carp River more accessible than ever.

“We are thrilled to have

Trailhead Paddle Shack as a partner this year,” said MVCA community relations co-ordinator Shannon Gutoskie.

“By providing canoes, it eliminates the guesswork for people who want to participate, but don’t have their own canoe or means to transport it. It’s a great opportunity for the public to see firsthand the true beauty of the Carp River, while getting some fresh air and exercise at the same time.”

“Trailhead Paddle Shack is all about the outdoors. We are pleased to support an event related to the activities we promote with our business,” said co-owner of Trailhead Paddle Shack Jason Yarrington.

“We are happy to provide this service and encourage residents throughout the Mississippi Valley watershed to participate.”

A rest stop along the route will feature refreshments, bathroom facilities and a unique look at a wetland restoration project undertaken

by Ducks Unlimited Canada.

“Sue Prior has graciously offered her Oakleigh Wetlands Restoration Project property as a rest stop so the public can see the initial stages of a large wetland restoration,” said Friends of the Carp River Chair Janet Mason.

“The wetlands were constructed in the winter of 2015, and it’s exciting to see the waterfowl, frogs and other wetland creatures populating the area as the vegetation fills in.”

Trailhead Paddle Shack will also offer a shuttle service between Prior’s property and the initial launch site for people who don’t wish to paddle the entire round trip distance.

Registration is free, but all participants must register ahead of time and sign a waiver. Donations to Friends of the Carp River are appreciated.

Constant aircraft drone above Dunrobin diminishes Helicopter noise still an issue, Carp Airport interested in forming committee with residents Jessica Cunha

jessica.cunha@metroland.com

The constant drone of aircraft above Dunrobin seems to have lessened after a meeting with a Transport Canada official, says an area couple.

Maria and Tom Rey contacted the Review last fall after growing frustrated with a lack of response from the federal government. Air traffic above the Reys’ home had escalated from about five planes a day to upwards of 50 aircraft a day in a two-year period.

After the article appeared, the Reys created an advocacy group with neighbours and other area residents concerned with the increase in noise. They were able to set up a meeting with Nick Taylor, technical team lead of flight operations with Transport Canada and

a former pilot, and got together in January.

“That’s where we actually got some really, really good results,” said Maria. “There’s an extreme decrease in the amount of planes we hear.”

Before meeting with the Reys, Taylor spoke with the chief flying instructors from the Carp, Rockliffe, and Ottawa Macdonald-Cartier International airports (who all train in the Dunrobin area) to discuss the constant noise and lowflying training manoeuvres happening in a concentrated zone.

The result was an agreement with the airports; aircraft training in the area will fly at an altitude of at least 1,500 feet over Dunrobin instead of the 500-foot minimum, and spread the drills over six or seven less populated locations, said Transport Canada in an emailed

response.

The flight schools also agreed to meet with Transport Canada “in the future” to discuss ideas about other suitable training areas.

“We’re very happy with the response we got and the pro-activeness (Taylor) took on our behalf,” said Tom. Spring and summer will be the “real litmus test,” said Maria, but so far, so good.

“So far we don’t hear as many planes as we used to,” she said.

“We will continue with this advocacy group; we want to ensure the rules are respected.”

HELICOPTER ISSUES

A number of residents got in touch with the Reys about helicopter noise closer to the Carp Ridge area.

Others living in Corkery have also noted an increase in helicopter flights overhead.

“They’re still having massive problems with helicopters,” said

“

The Carp Airport is interested in creating a committee of residents and members to deal with any noise issues.

Maria, adding she and Tom are working to create a committee that would benefit both the local airport and the residents.

“If you look at Transport Canada regulations, airports should have committees with residents,” she said. “I really think it would be good if there was a board that had the interest of the airport and the local residents.”

Mark Braithwaite, manager of

the Carp Airport, said he thinks it’s a great idea.

“Let’s do it,” he said. “We want to work in the community. We want to be a good neighbour and bring more business to the Carp area – it’s only going to benefit everybody in the long run. I really wish there was something I could do about the helicopter noise, but unfortunately there’s not much we can do.”

Aircraft noise a ‘complicated issue’: Transport Canada

Transport Canada shut down its Civil Aviation Issues Reporting System (CAIRS) online on March 31.

On its website, it says the public and the aviation community can report issues or concerns through the Civil Aviation Communications Centre: • requests can be made to services@tc.gc.ca or 613957-4208; • questions can be called in to 1-800-305-2059.

It is an issue that is not always resolved, but must be managed while ensuring that aviation safety remains paramount. “When dealing with noise complaints, Transport Canada’s experience shows that these issues are most effectively addressed at the local community level. As such, the department encourages .COM

The Ottawa airport has raised its fees and that has resulted in increased traffic in the west end.

Helicopter Transport Service Canada is a tenant of the Carp Airport and conducts pilot competency checks twice a year, said Braithwaite. The local airfield is also used for military training.

A compromise was to limit late-night training, he said, with most flights now taking place during regular business hours. There are some later flights, but the helicopters are on the ground by 9 or 10 p.m., he said.

Susan Prior, who lives in the Carp Ridge area, said she thinks a committee would be a smart idea.

She often hears helicopters overhead multiple times a day when training sessions are scheduled. “It stopped for a while

and that’s the problem; it’s training sessions,â€? she said. “Not only is it there, it’s repetitive. Each guy goes through the same lesson the same way ‌ When I’m trying to work, like I was today, it gets my blood pressure up.â€?

Braithwaite said the airport keeps a “complaints binder� where all complaints are filed. “It makes it easier for us to narrow down where we’re having issues, what time of day, to try and address it accordingly if it’s required,� he said. “The people that have called in, I feel their pain, living near an airport with the helicopters. But (the helicopters are) not breaking any laws.�

In an emailed response, Transport Canada said the voluntary agreement to limit flights to 1,500 feet over Dunrobin was only discussed with the flight schools and not any pri-

Taking a toll on every driver

T

olls on Ottawa roads or highways are now part of the conversation at city hall.

The transportation committee has voted to have a report completed, and tolls will be one possibility.

That any possible toll is many years or even a decade away is the only good news.

The city needs more money for roads, goes one argument, and driver-related charges don’t pay all the costs associated with their upkeep.

But non-drivers also benefit from roads; they buy the same goods as everyone else and those arrive on trucks.

And those trucks arguably put more wear and tear on roadways than passenger vehicles.

Even if we share the cost of travel more equitably, council needs a sense of scale.

Tolls around the centre core may make sense in London, England, but not London, Ontario. Not Ottawa, Ontario, either.

Tolls will no doubt deter travel; another nail in the coffin of downtown businesses already being squeezed by the massive free parking lots at shopping malls in Barrhaven and Kanata.

Few would argue that a new highway – maybe a ring road around the city – could come with a user fee.

But it’s beyond galling to ask drivers to pay for roads through their taxes, and then turn around and charge them to drive on those same streets.

We’re currently investing billions of dollars in light rail. If the eventual LRT system in the city encourages people to leave their cars at home, that’s good.

That will be a sign of success.

We don’t need to deter people from driving on publicly funded roads. Since there’s no practical way to add lanes to Highway 417 or build a new highway into the core (thankfully), traffic volume will act as all the deterrent we need.

And if the word toll raises its ugly head at city hall, councillors should be asked to tackle the obvious untapped revenue source presented by all the bridges across the Ottawa River. Every day, thousands of drivers who have paid nothing towards this city’s street maintenance cause wear and tear on our pavement as they zip in and out of our city.

The perks of coffee shops

W

ell, the sky didn’t fall when Bridgehead began serving wine a year or so ago, so maybe we shouldn’t worry too much about Starbucks doing the same.

The coffee house empire announced it would begin serving wines and craft beers in some Toronto locations, with plans to expand to other parts of Canada.

There hasn’t been much of an outcry over it, one way or the other, perhaps because there are more important things to worry about. Still, it would be nice in some ways if the experiment didn’t work.

The growth of coffee culture has been a positive thing in North America and you’d hate to see that jeopardized.

Coffee culture is one of the use-

What a good idea it is to stop whatever we are doing to sit down somewhere and have a coffee with other people around, particularly in a society where people spend too much time rushing around, too much time by themselves, staring at computers or phones.

One thing you notice in European cities is the absence of people walking down the street with takeout coffee cups in their hands.

a coffee house, sitting down and relaxing with others.

That’s a good thing, and it was a good thing that Starbucks, followed by other national and local chains, brought it to North America.

Of course, the importation was not perfect. In North America we had to add the blight of the drivethru, which undercuts the whole idea.

And North America also contributed the laptop guy, who parks at a prime table for hours at a time.

But overall, the coffee house has worked in North America, made life a little nicer.

The vibe in the coffee house is different from that of a bar or tavern.

It might be better for some, worse for others, but the point is that it’s different, more relaxed, more lowkey, and many people like that.

That could go if the coffee house starts acting like a wine bar.

For one thing, it will make things

awkward, at the least, for under-age students.

After the disappearance of the malt shop, where Archie and Jughead, Betty and Veronica used to hang out, teens have needed a gathering place and the coffee house has been that for some.

That changes if the trend toward wine and beer in coffee house accelerates.

It is sometimes difficult to understand why businesses that prosper by doing one thing well invariably decide that they need to do other things too. Fast food chains aspire to fine dining. Grocery stores sell bicycles.

Hardware stores begin selling groceries. So do drugstores. Bookstores sell candles. Wal-Mart becomes a bookseller. Everything becomes the same.

Which is why the coffee culture has been so refreshing. Unlike other gathering spots, nobody is yelling and the music isn’t loud.

The coffee house is not like other places. Why can’t it stay that way?

Bringing wine to the coffee house may be a sign that the coffee chains are not making as much money as they want just selling coffee and snacks. Maybe there are others ways to do that.

How about making laptop guy pay rent?

Re: Gallant bashing: Kettle calling the pot black To the Editor: I read several letters to the editor over the past months bashing Cheryl Gallant.

I have no doubt she is not everyone’s cup of tea, nor by the sounds of things do I think I would invite her over for one either.

I find it rather rich that writers latched on to the ‘Hope & Change’ mantra, lamenting what could have been. Please spare us your false indignation, since I am sure you would spout “too bad, so sad” if Gallant went down to defeat in the last election.

To refresh the writers’ memories, Team Trudeau imported advisors from south of our border, sourced from the Democrats war machine. Google is thine friend.

A message with origins from eight years ago.

Look south of the border to see how well that ‘Hope & Change’ turned out.

Regarding the comments about Gallant’s arrogance, I do not dispute, but I find it convenient that a certain recent 60 Minutes interview, with a rather arrogant, self-righteous individual has been forgotten.

This individual went on at length how Americans must change. This is the same individual that said Quebecers are better than other Canadians.

How un-Canadian (if I can borrow his catch-phrase), and yet, I heard McCrimmon is one of his biggest supporters.

I am rather sure McCrimmon is evenkeeled, and has good integrity, though she is now a politician, open to the same tomfoolery as all of them. As evidenced by the emails I get from her office, she sure does not stray from the party message.

Military service does not make one honourable, nor does it make one honest, nor does it make one a good example; only someone’s inner qualities demonstrate the capacity for that.

It is a matter of time to determine if McCrimmon will be a politician of integrity, I hope she can be a better than those that stand across from her, and those that she stand beside her.

Rushed stormwater process shows need for another rural summit To the Editor: I attended four of the eight public consultation meetings the City held for the Water, Wastewater, and Stormwater Rate Structure Review (WWSRSR).

Of these, all were well attended with an average of 200 people showing up to each session. The feedback was consistent: • There was insufficient pre-consultation.

• The three options do not satisfy the objectives of the rate review.

• Rural stormwater services / requirements were not well characterized, e.g., things we already pay for such as municipal drains were omitted from the study, and things we contribute to such as maintaining ditches, our entry culverts, our ability to preserve and soak up stormwater, a resource, were not considered.

• The next steps appear to be rushed - one month to prepare the report for the Environment Committee given all of the feedback and the rejection of the three options proposed does not seem appropriate. One week for residents to review what we hope is a totally new direction is insufficient. The rush to committee gives the impression that

the deal is sealed and our input will not be considered.

• The urban against rural approach to “reallocating” the costs of stormwater management did not appear to sit well with either urbans or rurals. We are all in this together; we all pay taxes. It is unfair to suggest that rural people have not paid their fair share.

The City is engaged in many projects for which rural people will pay (LRT, a new library, bicycle lanes, urban squares) but will not benefit from to the extent that urban people will.

We can do better. Shortly after amalgamation, we had a Rural Summit to introduce staff and councillors to the large rural area of the new City of Ottawa and the characteristics and requirements of a non-urban area.

The examples used of other municipalities that have introduced stormwater levies appear to have been urban.

The recent experience of the WWSRSR would lead one to believe that it may be time for another Rural Summit or similar forum to re-introduce staff to the rural area.

Let’s keep neighbourhoods looking their best To the Editor: Dunrobin has all the charm of country living with small residential neighbourhoods surrounded by farmland and wildlife marshes.

While Dunrobin is in a rural setting, it is part of the City of Ottawa and subject to the same residential property standards and bylaws as urban areas.

For our neighbourhoods to retain their charm and value, all homeowners should feel a need to maintain their properties. This includes lawn and yard maintenance, garbage disposal and the safe and proper storage of unused materials, equipment and vehicles.

Ignoring residential property standards impacts negatively on the community. Potential home buyers are put off by neighbourhoods that look rundown and where “junk” builds up in front, side and backyards. This also impacts property values and makes older, established neighbourhoods less desirable than newer developments in the area.

The same applies to issues such as ‘Stoop and Scoop’.

The City provides ‘5 Reasons Why You Should Scoop and Poop.’ It’s part of being a responsible licensed dog owner and it’s important for the environment and for everyone who walks and plays on residential streets and nearby parks.

In short, all property owners should be accountable in making sure their neighbourhoods don’t look or become rundown. Otherwise, we let ourselves down.

Our community is best served if our properties reflect the quality of life we set for our families.

City of Ottawa Notice of Proposed Official Plan Amendments Kanata North Community Design Plan In accordance with Section 22(6.4)(a) of the Planning Act and Section 11.(1) of Ontario Regulation 543/06, notice is hereby provided that an official plan amendment proposal is being considered by the Planning and Growth Management Department at the City of Ottawa.

The proposed Official Plan Amendment (OPA) affect properties located in Ward 5, West Carleton-March.

The planning area for the OPA is the Kanata North Community Design Plan (CDP) limits, extending along both sides of March Road from the existing urban area of Kanata. It is generally bounded by Old Carp Road, Murphy Court, Nadia Lane and the rail corridor and excludes the existing subdivisions.

Three concurrent and integrated Class Environmental Assessment Studies/Master Plans were initiated: Transportation Master Plan (TMP) to provide the road network; Master Servicing Study (MSS) for water, storm drainage and sanitary; and an Environmental Management Plan (EMP) for the natural environment and select stormwater management components. These reports have been prepared in conjunction with the Community Design Plan (CDP). The CDP is being brought forward for approval by Planning Committee and Council at the same time as the proposed OPA. Approval of the CDP and subsequent development applications under the Planning Act will be supported by the TMP, MSS and EMP. The purpose of the OPA is to provide policies that implement the land use components of the Kanata North CDP. The main effects of the proposed OPA are to: (1) change the land use designation in Schedule B from Developing Community (Expansion Area) to General Urban Area; (2) designate the tributaries of Shirley’s Brook and significant woodlot as Urban Natural Features; (3) update various schedules to reflect the expansion of transportation facilities within the CDP area; (4) update various natural heritage system features; (5) refine the required mix of housing; and (6) implement policy with respect to a cost sharing agreement.

To review additional information and materials related to the proposed amendments, please contact the undersigned planner, go to Ottawa.ca/devapps and input the File Number D01-01-16-0007 in the “Search” criteria. The City of Ottawa would like to receive comments regarding the proposed amendments.

Please forward comments to the undersigned planner via mail, facsimile or email by May 11, 2016.

Comments received will be considered in the evaluation of the proposal.

If you wish to be notified of the adoption of the proposed Official Plan amendment, or of the refusal of a request to amend the official plan, you must make a written request to the City of Ottawa.

If a person or public body does not make oral submissions at a public meeting (meeting date, time and location to be determined) or make written submissions to the City of Ottawa before the before the proposed official plan amendment is adopted and the proposed by-law is passed, the person or public body is not entitled to appeal the decision of the Council of the City of Ottawa to the Ontario Municipal Board.

If a person or public body does not make oral submissions at a public meeting (meeting date, time and location to be determined) or make written submissions to the City of Ottawa before the proposed official plan amendment is adopted and before the proposed by-law is passed, the person or public body may not be added as a party to the hearing of an appeal before the Ontario Municipal Board unless, in the opinion of the Board, there are reasonable grounds to do so.

Dated at Ottawa this 14th day of April, 2016.

Accidental Farmwife The Farmer thinks she has gone back into season already, based on a recent slow dance he witnessed between Mocha and the bull.

We have six calves born, and we are still waiting on the other six.

The two barn cats that came in for the winter left the house for a few weeks in early March when all the snow melted, but now they are baaaaaack.

Junior, the grey tabby, bolted into the house when he saw an opportunity one morning, and he has refused to go back outside. He seems to have been in some sort of a fight during the few weeks he was returned to the barn. Likely he found a Tom who had been over-wintering there, and now he has to re-assert his dominance and claim his territory.

By the looks of him, the battle isn’t going his way.

At first I thought he had mange or something. The back of his hind leg is totally bald, and he has a tiny hole in the top of his head.

When I pet him, a patch of hair also fell off his hind flank. I asked the vet about it

Volunteers prove that Canada is a caring country To the Editor: Happy National Volunteer Week, Canada! I’ll be delighted to hand out a new medal for the first time this week.

It’s called the Sovereign’s Medal for Volunteers, and as an official Canadian honour, it builds on the legacy and spirit of the Caring Canadian Award in recognizing

exceptional volunteers. This medal is driven by nominations from everyday Canadians who know their communities best.

I’m sure that you know someone who deserves a medal from their country for their dedication to others. Well, now you have a chance to give them that medal!

During this National Volunteer Week,

share your story, thank a volunteer and nominate someone for Canada’s new Medal for Volunteers. This week is dedicated to celebrating volunteerism, and I offer all volunteers in Canada my sincere kudos for showing such generosity and caring.

and they said he is likely over-grooming his wounds after a fight. He’s basically cleaning his own injuries so much that he has licked his fur right off.

He isn’t itchy, so I know it isn’t mange.

And he got the flea drops in March along with everyone else. So I guess he is welcome to stay in the house for his convalescence.

A weird thing happened when Junior returned – the other two fulltime housecats, Sheila and Sammy, ostracized him. After that initial sniff for identification, they decided he was either a threat to their health or their territory and they hissed at him every time he approached for a neck rub.

Poor little dude. He still doesn’t like to be petted by humans but will allow me to stroke his fur if he is distracted by food.

Even scruffy barn cats need love.

He has been back in for just over a week now and Sam has finally decided he is worthy of a snuggle. Sheila still boxes his ears if he gets too close.

It’s supposed to be 21 degrees this weekend, so hopefully all of the cats will go outside for a few days and give me a chance to give their winter lair in the basement a thorough spring cleaning.

And if the warm weather continues, as it has in previous years, it will be tempting to start gardening. But I won’t get caught planting veggies too early because you can be sure Mother Nature has a few more surprises in store before the frost season is over. www.theaccidentalfarmwife.blogspot.com www.dianafisherbooks.com

COMMUNITY

I want to thank everyone for their kind notes and messages this week. Your support was very much appreciated.

I was born in early April, 48 years ago, so these things are true about me: I suffer perennially from spring fever; I am stubborn like the ram on my zodiac sign; I am an eternal optimist and, I love the rain.

This year, however, April is a bit drunk.

It’s been snowing, then sunny with a balmy breeze, then torrential downpour, then snowing again. Ah well. We can trust Mother Nature is just having a bit of fun with us and spring will be here soon.

The robins and tulips are not impressed.

Our six new calves, aged three days to two months, don’t seem to mind the snow.

The two oldest calves chase the barn cats in circles around the feeder while the little ones watch from a safe spot behind the nanny-cow.

The nanny (self-appointed guardian of the kindergarten) had her own calf last week and Mocha seems to have given hers up for adoption so the most maternal of the bunch is actually feeding two babies. We aren’t sure yet whether she is aware of that fact and just exceedingly generous, or if the calf is smart enough to steal the milk from her when she isn’t looking.

She spends the day with all six calves curled up around her, so she probably can’t remember which one smells like hers.

I’m not sure what Mocha is up to. She seems to have lost interest in her calf soon after leaving the barn, but they are both thriving. She does allow the calf to cuddle up to her. I will have to stalk them to see if she is still feeding.

OPINION

The naturopathic approach to stress explained at Healing Circle On a sunny Sunday, March 6 at the Carp Memorial Hall, Marcin Padlewski N.D. explained in a Carp Healing Circle session how a naturopathic doctor can help improve a person’s ability to deal with stress.

His kind and gentle manner created an atmosphere where the audience could relax and open up.

He began by acknowledging that stress can be transgenerational, running through families in patterns that stubbornly repeat themselves, from traumatic experiences in utero such as the result of a difficult birth to experiences in early childhood that can’t even be remembered as well as the acute and daily stressors encountered in adulthood.

STRESS

Stress is unavoidable and learning to ride it out can make a huge difference in the quality of lives.

Dr. Padlewski went on to describe an interesting National Geographic study of ‘blue zones’, the highest concentrations of centenarians, people who live past a hundred.

It turns out that the key common denominator is community.

In these areas, the elders are still involved in making decisions.

Coming around to how he helps patients with stress, Dr. Padlewski emphasized that in naturopathic medicine every individual is unique.

From giving foundational suggestions about lifestyle to creating a therapeutic diet to developing a botanical or homeopathic remedy, he carefully listens to the person’s needs in order to craft a realistic healing program.

THERAPY

One of Marcin’s tools is EMDR, ‘Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing’, which can dramatically help shift a person out of stress.

It is so effective that it has been declared the number one treatment for PTSD by the World Health Organization.

Another therapy used in his practice is acupuncture, a powSUBMITTED erful way to move energy, “especially for people who don’t want Naturopathic doctor Marcin Padlewski shares advice on how to deal to talk about things.”

As usual, healing circle atwith stress at March’s Carp Healing Circle. The next circle will be held

this Sunday, April 17.

tendees had a nutrition break to explore easy ways to keep one’s body from falling apart during turbulent times when it’s impossible to put a good meal on the table.

They ended with one of the participants sharing mindfulness techniques and then sharing solutions for dealing with stress.

NEXT SESSION

The next Carp Healing Circle is from 2 to 4 p.m. this Sunday, April 17 with trauma therapist and EMDR expert Mary Ann Carmichael MSW. Admission is free and donations are welcome to offset expenses for sponsor and local charity Carp Ridge Learning Centre.

Please RSVP to lori@ecowellness.com or call 613-839-1198 from 9:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. Monday to Friday.

If you want to attend at the last minute and haven’t had time to reserve, you are welcome to simply show up.

People are welcome to contact Dr. Padlewski at his private practice near Clayton.

Ottawa businesswomen create race for $15,000 down payment Scavenger hunt also runs as fundraiser in support of the Ottawa Senators Foundaion camp program adam.kveton@metroland.com

A pair of local businesswomen have banded together to create an event they say is unique in Ottawa – a scavenger hunt with a $15,000 prize towards a house.

Colleen Lyle, a team leader at Keller Williams Ottawa Realty, and mortgage agent Sue Hameed created the Ottawa House Hunt event, which will take place on Saturday, May 7 at the Crazy Horse restaurant in the Kanata Centrum shopping centre.

The two learned of a similar and very successful event being done in the U.S., said Hameed.

“We talked about it and we said, ‘Hey, what the heck, let’s just do it,’” she said.

Though sponsors have come forward to help with advertising, creating the event’s website and other details, the prize money is coming straight from Lyle and Hameed, she said.

“We are gifting the grand prize ourselves,” said Hameed.

The plan is for teams of two to register by paying $25 each to en-

ter, with all of the proceeds from the tickets going to the Ottawa Senators Foundation’s Campership Program.

Then the teams will have one hour to complete a scavenger hunt at the Kanata Centrum and in various stores located there. “(The teams) are going to have a list of items they have to collect, or tasks to complete,” said Hameed.

“At the end, the horn is going to be blown and everybody has got to come back to the initial meeting spot and we will find out who’s the winner.”

But if you ask Hameed or Lyle to tell you what kinds of things teams will have to do, they can’t quite say because even they don’t know. Only the event planner will, said Hameed.

“We are actually not going to be aware of any of the clues or answers just so that it’s completely legit and there is no talk of anybody knowing answers prior,” she said.

The winning team will then receive $15,000 to put towards the down payment on a house.

event was due to what they’ve observed while doing their jobs.

“What I’m seeing often in my business is you have people who have finished school, they have a student loan, they have a fantastic job and they just haven’t been able to save up the money (for a down payment),” said Hameed. “Their income is fantastic, credit is great, everything is lined up. It’s just getting over that hump to putting away for savings.”

A win could also help renters who are paying the equivalent of a mortgage payment every month.

In addition to the grand prize, there will be prizes for some runners up, said Hameed, and perhaps more.

“It’s something dear to our hearts,” she said of the program.

They hope to raise between $5,000 and $10,000 for the foundation, they said. So far 20 teams have registered for the event, though they are hoping for 100 or more.

They also hope to make the event an annual affair, said Hameed. For more information, go to ottawahousehunt.ca.

A group of residents and a retired fire chief who saved a family from a Caldwell-Avenue kitchen fire were among awarded by the city’s fire services on March 11 at the first commendation ceremony of 2016.

Samson Agboegbulem, Samir Al-Rubaiy, Karl Raycraft, Montel Russell and Keak Wan broke a hole in an apartment door at 1465 Caldwell Ave to search for a mother and her children. They made several attempts to enter the smoke-filled apartment to find the children. Both kids were found by rescuers, who met District chief Don Smith in the hallway. Smith got the rescuers and children out of the building quickly and administered first aid until help arrived.

Agboegbulem, Al-Rubaiy, Russell and Wan were given the Award of Bravery for a

Retired chief Don Smith was awarded the Fire Chief’s Awards of Bravery for a fire personnel’s role during an emergency where the act was meritorious.

ELDERLY MAN ADRIFT

Mark Wheeler was also given recognized for his efforts saving an elderly man from going adrift in the Ottawa River.

Wheeler was cycling with his wife when he noticed the 83-year-old man being pulled by the current into the main channel of the river.

The man couldn’t swim, so Wheeler jumped into the water and swam back to shore with him. The pair waited for emergency responders on the riverbank.

Wheeler was awarded a certificate of merit.

COURTESY OF FIRE SERVICES

Fire chief Gerry Pignitore presents Mark Wheeler with a commendation for his efforts to rescue an 83-year-old man from the Ottawa River. others,” Ottawa fire chief Gerry Pignitore wrote in a statement. “The award recipients acted out of the goodness of their heart without seeking rewards or recognition to assist

someone in an emergency. We congratulate them for this act of bravery and kindness. We thank them for their contribution to keeping our communities safe.”

Locals called by Revenue Canada scammers Ontario Provincial Police wrapped up its Fraud Prevention Month awareness campaign in March by urging citizens to confirm who you’re dealing with before sending any money anywhere for any reason.

The warning comes as calls from fraudsters claiming to be from Revenue Canada increase dramatically in the runup to income tax deadline at the end of April.

An 84-year-old area woman reports getting calls from a threatening ‘tax man’ twice in one day. He unsuccessfully tried to extort supposed tax money owed from her, but she rebuffed the attempts and phoned police. However, she notes her son, who received a similar call, gave out his social insurance number, before realizing it was a scam.

Another area resident was advised by police to call Phonebusters to report scam calls said the organization is receiving so many complaints it took her 45 minutes to get through them.

In the income tax scam,

Councillor Eli El-Chantiry

the criminals extort money from victims by telephone, mail, text message or email, a fraudulent communication that claims to be from the Canada Revenue Agency requesting personal information such as a social insurance number, credit card number, bank account number, or passport number.

Fraudsters are either phishing for your identification or asking that outstanding taxes be paid by a money service business or by pre-paid debit/ credit cards, explain police.

They may insist that this personal information is needed so that the taxpayer can receive a refund or a benefit payment. Cases of fraudulent communication could also involve threatening or coercive language to scare individuals into paying fictitious debt to the CRA. Other communications urge taxpayers to visit a fake CRA website where the taxpayer is then asked to verify their identity by entering personal information. “These are scams and taxpayers should

never respond to these fraudulent communications nor click on any of the links provided,” stress the OPP. The OPP report the Canadian Revenue Agency fraud drew 15,091 complaints, resulting in 751 identified victims who lost a combined $2.49 million last year. Yet police admit 95 per cent of the crimes go unreported.

This year, the number of such scam calls have skyrocketed.

As well, OPP report that in 2015 the emergency (or grandparent) scam claimed 474 Canadian victims who lost nearly $2.5 million from more than 1,100 complaints.

Here are some warning signs: Urgency - The scammer always makes the request sound very urgent, which may cause the victim to not verify the story.

Fear - The scammer plays on the victim’s emotions by generating a sense of fear. For instance they may say, “I am scared and I need help from you.”

Secrecy - The scammer pleads with the victim not to tell anyone about the situation, such as, “Please don’t tell Dad or Mom, they would be so mad.”

Request for Money Transfer - Money is usually requested to be sent by a money transfer company such as Money Gram, Western Union or even through your own bank institution.

To avoid becoming a victim, police advise you to first check with another family member or trusted friend to verify the information before sending money or providing credit card information by phone or e-mail.

If you or someone you know suspect they’ve been a victim of the Emergency Scam or someone posing as a Canada Revenue Agency official, hang up and contact your local police service. You can also file a complaint through the Canadian Anti-Fraud Centre, Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-8477 (TIPS), or online at https://www.tipsubmit. com/start.htm.

Please join the Western Ottawa Community Resource Centre (WOCRC) for their remaining planned conversations to discuss health priorities for West Carleton seniors and caregivers.

Rural residents are not onboard with the City of Ottawa’s proposed options to include a new stormwater fee on their tax bills.

The city held the seventh of eight public consultation sessions for the proposed fee at the Alfred Taylor Recreation Centre in North Gower on Tuesday, April 5. Hundreds of rural residents turned out for the meeting, ready to share their opinions and voice their concerns.

Earlier, people had to be turned away as a full house attended the session in West Carleton.

“Personally I have some concerns as I’m sure you do as well,” said Rideau-Goulbourn Coun. Scott Moffatt as he addressed the crowd.

The city is proposing a new structure for distributing the costs of stormwater management among residents. Currently, the fee is included on the water bills of those served by the city’s water and wastewater system. By nature, this structure excludes rural residents on private well and septic systems who do not receive a water bill – leaving urban residents to foot the bill on their own.

The city collects stormwater fees to help manage the safe transportation of rain and meltwater across Ottawa. Rural stormwater management, according to the city’s presentation, accounts for $8.4 million of the $42.4 million budget.

This includes ditch maintenance ($2 million), system operation like pond and erosion maintenance ($1 million), capital contributions ($4.5 million) and technical and management support ($0.9 million).

According to Dixon Weir, general manager of environmental services with the city, staff have been working since May of 2015 to develop options that would distribute the costs of stormwater management more fairly among all residents of Ottawa. Three are now being considered: a flat rate divided equally among all residents; an assessment-based fee; and a fee based on your home’s average hard-surface area. All of these options would impose a new fee on residents’ tax bills.

The first option, a flat rate, would divide the $25.3 million to be paid by residential property owners (60 per cent of the total budget) by the 354.000 residential properties to arrive at a fee of $5.94 per month.

The second option, based on assessment, would arrive at a fee of $6.75 per month for an average assessment of $360,000.

The third option would impose a fee of $9.29 per month for an average hard surface area of 249 square metres.

The purpose of the public

consultation sessions was to gather feedback on the options from residents to be considered before the final report comes forward in May. “What we’re proposing is that everyone in the City of Ottawa – all residents – contribute to the services they receive,” Weir said of the proposed options. “We’re saying, ‘These are the costs and how do we share those in a way that is fair?’” added Isabelle Jasmin, deputy city treasurer, who also fielded questions at the meeting.

FEEDBACK

Rural residents seem to be opposed to the options put forward by the city.

Several themes emerged from the almost two hours of questions and comments put forward by residents, including a collective feeling that rural residents aren’t contributing to stormwater costs and don’t receive stormwater management services from the city.

Rural residents largely operate on private well and septic systems, paid for exclusively by the property owners themselves. Rural property owners also foot the bill for city-installed culverts and drains that are of benefit to their land.

Additionally, many residents pointed out that their large lots actually absorb more stormwater than they give off.

“Maybe you should have a new option there: rural people don’t have to pay any of it (stormwater costs) because

we’re already paid for a lot of it,” argued on resident.

“I think this is just another cash grab for the city,” echoed another. “I believe this is a city issue –leave us rurals alone.”

While many residents seemed opposed to paying a stormwater fee at all, just as many seemed OK with contributing in some way, but had a problem with the formulas the city is proposing for calculating that contribution.

“To sort of apply a flat rate sure isn’t fair,” a resident said, citing repeated arguments that rural properties do not create as much runoff as urban ones.

“It sure isn’t fair to be based on assessment either,” he continued.

“There’s a tilt here with these options away from any sort of benefit for the rural area,” he finished.

“I think the measures you have to assess are incorrect,” reiterated another resident.

NEXT STEPS

If passed by council. the new fee structure will come into affect in 2017.

Both Weir and Jasmin said that all comments and questions raised by residents would be considered in the final report brought forward in May. However, some residents felt this was untrue.

“This is more just a show to say you were listening,” one resident said, to applause from others. “You’ll do what you want no matter what we say.”

Committee approves changes to taxi bylaw Jennifer McIntosh jennifer.mcintosh@metroland.com

After dozens of delegations and nearly as many motions, the city’s community and protective services committee voted in favour of licensing the ridesharing app Uber on April 8.

In addition to allowing organizations such as Uber to operate under a new class of car-for-hire called private transportation companies, the bylaw change will reduce the fee for taxi licenses and allow for fare

flexibility when a rider books a traditional taxi through an electronic app.

The decision came as a result of a review of the industry by consultant KPMG and a slate of 70 recommendations that came in a 116-page document.

A notable change by the committee to the series of recommendations was the start of the new bylaw. The change would push back the implementation of the new set of rules to Sept. 30 from June 30 to give the industry more time to adapt

to the new rules.

The first day of deliberations saw nearly 100 people from all walks of life – Uber drivers, taxi drivers, representatives from the tourism industry and accessibility advocates.

On the second day, committee chair Diane Deans said the city wouldn’t compromise on the issues of safety or accessibility, adding she didn’t want to see councillors using regulatory tools to bar Uber from entering the market place.

West Carleton Coun. Eli El-

Chantiry put forward an unsuccessful motion to force PTC drivers to undergo mandatory driver training.

The committee did manage to add one set of checks and balances. The motion requires any PTC in operation to hand over each driver’s license and proof of insurance to the chief license inspector two weeks prior to the enacting of the bylaw and every three months after.

City council as a whole was set to vote on the committee’s recommendations on April 13.

Take a tour in the woods with ‘Born to Walk’ author on April 24 The eight kilometres of trails wind through forests and wetlands, passing through a variety of rich habitats. Who knows what interesting wildlife you’ll see along the way?

Registration for this event is at 9:30 a.m. on April 24, rain or shine, with Rubinstein’s presenta-

tion starting at 10 a.m. Following the talk, walkers set off on the trails and it’s probably wise to wear waterproof footwear this time of year.

The admission fee is a $10 donation to MMLT. To reach High Lonesome, take County Road 29 to Pakenham Vil-

lage and turn onto Waba Road.

Continue west for 2.9 km, turn left on Barr Side Road and travel for 1.6 km. Take the first left at Carbine Road and drive four kilometres to 867 Carbine Rd. and you have arrived.

For further information and a map, visit mmlt.ca/events.

Please Be Seated

The Mississippi Madawaska Land Trust (MMLT) shares Rubinstein’s convictions and feels that nature itself offers similar benefits to humanity. If you combine nature and walking together, you’ve found a very powerful tool to help transform your life.

High Lonesome Nature Reserve is a 200-acre wilderness property in the Pakenham hills.

The property was donated to the Land Trust by the family of Barry (Sam) Spicer in 2012 and has seen a growing number of visitors each year since.

Tired of winter and can’t wait to get out and smell the fresh earth and hear the first sounds of spring?

There couldn’t be a better way to experience spring’s emergence than a walk in the woods. Not only will you enjoy the advantages of being immersed in nature, there are great benefits in walking itself.

On Sunday, April 24, you’ll have the opportunity to hear all about the benefits of walking from an expert and then you can take a stroll through the winding, scenic trails of High Lonesome Nature Reserve near Pakenham to enjoy those benefits first hand.

Dan Rubinstein is the Ottawa author of the book Born to Walk: The Transformative Power of a Pedestrian Act. At a turning point in his life, Rubinstein decided to combine his love of writing and his love of walking and turn it into a book.

He travelled throughout Canada, the U.S. and the U.K., talking to countless people who see walking as transformative, with benefits that go far beyond simple transportation or recreation.

Rubinstein’s talk will cover some of the latest research into the physical, emotional and spiritual benefits of walking. Learn more at borntowalk.org.

The Arnprior Ducks Unlimited annual dinner and auction will be held on Friday, April 22 at the Nick Smith Centre.

However, if you haven’t bought tickets yet, it may be too late. The popular fundraiser is known for selling out. Doors open at 5:30 p.m. to allow attendees to view all the items available in the many raffles and silent/live auctions. Dinner will be served at 7 p.m.

The organizing committee led by Stephen Dolan and Chris Coady reports there is a “wonderful new assortment” of 2016 Ducks Unlimited merchandise including limited edition sporting art, sports memorabilia, firearms and home accent pieces. “This is a great opportunity to have a fun evening out and play an important role in protecting and restoring our wetlands,” they say, adding “the ducks and all their friends will be thankful.”

Tickets at $45 per person includes a Ducks Unlimited Canada membership. If there are any tickets left, they can be obtained at http://ww3.ducks.ca or by calling any of the local committee members.

The Arnprior chapter has been hosting the fundraising banquet for the past five years.

Last year 230 from all over the area attended and there were many more on a waiting list.

Ducks Unlimited is known Canada-wide for its fundraising banquets organized by volunteers, who number about 6,500 across

the country. Last year the non-profit organization invested 92 per cent of all net dollars received into habitat conservation, research, public policy and education. Locally, the Ducks Unlimited protects and maintains wetlands and supports projects such as the rehabilitation of the Carp River.

Ducks Unlimited Canada (DUC) is marking Spring Migration Week April 10-16 by encouraging people to celebrate the fact Canada’s grasslands, lakes, marshes and forests are coming alive as millions of migrating birds herald the arrival of spring.

Year after year, wildlife follow their ancient instincts on incredible journeys that showcase just how resilient, resourceful and flat-out spectacular nature really is.

“Everyone has a favourite, tell-tale sign of spring,” says Greg Siekaniec, CEO for DUC. “For many people, it’s the first sighting of a robin bouncing across their front lawn. Others anxiously await the arrival of eastern bluebirds, another early migrant. A meadowlark perched on the top of fencepost sings a sweet song of spring to many people’s ears, while the familiar ‘flying V formation’ of Canada geese sends a clear signal that winter is on its way out.”

On the prowl for Owls in the early morning hours Every spring I lead an ‘Owl Prowl’ for the Macnamara Field Naturalists’ Club. This annual outing is obviously one in which owls are the target group.

As most species aren’t active until sundown, it’s difficult to visually search for owls. But our outing starts just before sunset, so sometimes we encounter a lingering Snowy Owl or a crepuscular hunter like a Short-eared Owl. But those sightings are unusual, and most owls on the outings are detected audibly when they answer back to my vocal impersonations.

This year’s trip had been postponed twice because of poor weather. The postponements were not done for the participants’ comfort; owls are reluctant to respond if it is wet, windy, or extremely cold.

Initially, the forecast for April 10 seemed ideal: no wind and temperatures just below the freezing point.

However, as so often happens, the forecast dramatically changed the day of the outing: snow and wind were now predicted.

It was too late to cancel the event for a third time, so we proceeded with it. Despite the new forecast, more than 40 participants showed up.

Michael Runtz Nature’s Way The original starting time (7 p.m.) had been retained, so this year’s Owl Prowl started nearly an hour before sunset. This allowed time to look for Short-eared Owls behind the Arnprior Airport, one of the better locations for this species.

Short-eareds get active near dusk and hunt on the wing, flopping like giant moths over weedy fields. A particularly good field borders Van Dusen Drive, so we scanned that field for movement. Hearts jumped when a large brown bird was spotted flying low over the field, but it turned out to be a female Northern Harrier, an owl-like hawk.

Then we spotted a smaller, gray harrier - the female’s mate. Like owls, Harriers sport “facial disks,” special feathers that function like satellite dishes, gathering sound and directing it to the ear openings.

We then visited a wet, cedar area near Claybank, an excellent site for Northern Saw-whet Owls. For 15 minutes I imitated that species’ short whistles, but it was windy and nothing responded.

However, we did hear the creaks of a cold Chorus Frog and the chirps of male American Woodcock performing their aerial displays, which conclude with a loud “beep,” revealing to females where the performer sits, awaiting their arrival.

Eventually we reached the Bellamy Road. Running from White Lake to Cedar Hill, this road is my favourite because it is wild and bordered by trees, ponds, and creeks excellent habitat for owls.

At one stop a distant Saw-whet Owl briefly replied to my whistles.

After a few minutes of silence, a small shadow passed over our heads. It was the owl, which landed in a nearby pine. Softly illuminated by flashlight, the tiny bird (a mere six inches tall) provided the group

MICHAEL RUNTZ

Participants on the annual Macnamara Owl Prowl were treated to close-up views of a Northern Saw-whet Owl, our tiniest owl. with excellent views before vanishing back into the dark.

We unsuccessfully tried for Barred Owls and Eastern ScreechOwls at other locations, but if there were owls present, they remained

silent.

It appears that even when an admiring audience is present, not all owls give a hoot!

Members and friends of the Mississippi Valley Field Naturalists (MVFN) are invited to attend the organization’s annual general meeting Thursday, April 21.

The session will take place beginning at 7:30 p.m. at Almonte United Church.

The meeting will be followed by discussion, refreshments and two ‘Wildlife Journals: Member’s Night’ presentations.

For the presentation ‘Encounters with Intriguing Owls’, Simon Lunn, biologist and nature photographer, will introduce several very different owls that he has encountered in recent years, both in his wooded backyard and special places within an hour’s drive of his home just south of Smiths Falls. Each of the owls has a unique story to tell.

The second presentation will be ‘Loons and Human Interaction’

by MVFN president and wellknown bird expert and local naturalist Cliff Bennett.

The past year was a busy one for MVFN (a local member of the Ontario Nature Network serving Lanark County, West Carleton and areas), with significant growth in membership.

Highlights included a successful program schedule (led by committee chair Gretta Bradley); a speaker series; many nature related outings; new birding events held by the birding committee chaired by Tim Pullen; and the vigorous fundraising and education effort supporting a campaign to protect Burntlands Alvar, led by environmental issues committee (EIC) chair Theresa Peluso.

Coloured pencil artist to give fireside talk April 20 in Carp Allison Fagan will give a colourful presentation as the next speaker lined up for the West Carleton Arts Society’s Fireside Artist Talks in Carp on April 20.

Fagan has worked in coloured pencil as her chosen medium since becoming a full-time artist 25 years ago.

She is a signature member of the Colored Pencil Society of America and in 2013 was awarded Master Pencil Artist status by the international Pencil Art Society in recognition of “attaining a high level of skill, respect, professionalism and mastery of the medium.”

Fagan has taught coloured pencil techniques for more than two decades, both in the school environment as a visiting artist and in adult workshops that she hosts in her home classroom.

She will be a guest in the Kanata Artists Studio Tour 2016, in which she has participated for 23 years. It runs April 30 and May 1

this year from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. each day at 1203 Maritime Way in Kanata.

Fagan’s work has appeared in American Artist Drawing Magazine, The Artist Magazine, The Colored Pencil Magazine and in several published art books. She has won many awards for her work, which is collected worldwide.

Other than creating and sharing her art, her greatest joy is seeing her students break down barriers and discover their artist within.

She most recently is giving short classes on techniques for colouring books.

You can see more of her work and find out more about Fagan on her website at www.allisonfagan.com.

Fireside Artist Talks are held on the third Wednesday of each month at St Paul’s United Church, 3760 Carp Rd., at 7 p.m. The talks are free for West Carleton Arts Society Members, and $5 for guests.

For details visit www. westcarletonartssociety.ca/ articulate.html.

ADHS gears up for another Relay for Life ADHS spring concert Staff

Buoyed by the successful return of the Relay for Life last year, Arnprior District High School students are taking a big step toward making it an annual event.

Relay for Life is back at the school this year in support of the effort to find a cure of cancer.

It will be held at the school on Thursday, June 9.

EVERYONE WELCOME

Members from the community are welcome to register teams and join students in the relay, which will run from 9:30 a.m. to 9:30 p.m. on the school track.

Many Ontario high schools are holding Relay for Life events this spring, including RCI in Ren-

frew (May 27) and West Carleton Senior Secondary (May 27-28).

Money raised goes to the Canadian Cancer society.

FUNDRAISER

As well as a fundraiser, the relay spreads awareness about progress in the fight against cancer.

It is also a time to remember family members and friends lost to cancer and provide encouragement and support for cancer survivors and those still battling the disease.

The ADHS Relay for Life was resurrected last year after a fouryear absence. About 130 students took part in the 12-hour marathon, taking turns circling the track.

Inspired by ADHS student and cancer survivor Conor Hogan, the students raised about $12,000.

Several Arnprior area business supported their efforts.

Organizers said last year’s relay was a good first step to bringing the event back to where it was the previous time it was held in 2011, when about 300 students raised $24,000.

CONTACT

For more information about the ADHS Relay for Life, email Mikayla Davis, Michael Clarke or Laura Carter at davism@student. rcdsb.on.ca, clarkem@student. rcdsb.on.ca or carterl@rcdsb. on.ca.

The concert will include performances by the school’s junior and senior bands under the direction of Frank Pecora as well as the vocal group Red Velvet.

Many of the music students will also be taking part in an ADHS coffee house today (Thursday) afterschool (2:45-5 p.m.) in the school’s lower library.

It’s time again for the Arnprior District High School music students to show their talents to the public.

The ADHS music department’s annual spring concert will be held Tuesday, April 19. The public is welcome to drop by at 7 p.m. in the school’s small gymnasium to hear two hours of top-notch music.

Young entrepreneurs encouraged Ontario is now accepting applications for the Summer Company program, which helps youth start their own business and gain the skills they need to succeed.

Summer Company offers mentorship, training and awards of up to $3,000 to students aged 15 to 29. Students can apply online un-

til May 6. Last year, 865 students launched their own companies, including Eric Dolan and several from Renfrew County.

Dolan developed Neutun - an app that works with smart watches and wearable devices that warns the wearer when an epileptic seizure is imminent.

Stonecrest students golden at region musicfest for second year Jessica Cunha

jessica.cunha@metroland.com

The senior band at Stonecrest Elementary School played their way to a gold level finish at the Capital Region MusicFest for the second year in a row – no small feat considering most of the students had never picked up an instrument before the instrumental music class taught in grades 7 and 8.

Music teacher Nicole Vaillancourt said the win is a testament to the students’ commitment.

“I think it’s pretty telling,” she said of how hard the students worked to prepare. “I’m just really proud of them.”

Capital Region MusicFest was held at Hillcrest High School from Feb. 24 to 27.

The festival showcases local musicians while a panel of adjudicators evaluate the performances. The Stonecrest senior band, made up of about 45 grades 7 and 8 students, was deemed to be performing at a gold level standard.

“We were evaluated and judged at a national stand-

ing,” said Vaillancourt. “It’s recognizing an exceptionally high level of performance.”

When the students found out how well they did, “they were ecstatic,” she said, adding it was well deserved.

“They rise to the occasion every year. They work really hard.”

The majority of students in the band don’t have a musical background and haven’t had lessons outside the classroom.

Most have only been playing their instruments for a year and a half before they participated in the competition, Vaillancourt said.

“I’m impressed with the level of commitment,” she said. “They practice diligently and consistently.”

BAND CONCERT

Vaillancourt teaches the music programs at Stonecrest, which begin in Grade 4 on the xylophone. In grades 5 and 6, students continue on the xylophones while also learning the recorder.

Before moving to the next grade level, Grade 6 students

The senior band at Stonecrest Elementary School takes gold for the second year in a row at Capital Region MusicFest.

The band will perform at the school’s annual concert on April 28 along with the Valley Concert Band. undergo a “testing night,” where they try out different instruments to see what will be the best fit for the following two years of instrumental music classes.

“It allows them to figure out what works best,” said Vaillancourt. “The idea is to make it fun for them for the

next two years of instrumental music.”

Grades 7 and 8 students can also choose to participate in the junior or senior band, both of which are extremely popular at the school with more than 50 students in the junior band and 45 in the senior.

The public will have the opportunity to hear just how good the student bands are when they perform during the school’s annual concert on Thursday, April 28. There are two time shows: one at noon, and a second at 7 p.m. that will also feature the Valley Concert Band.

When it comes to promoting the art and music scenes, “there’s a lot of support in the community,” said Vaillancourt.

She said parents are welcome to contact her with questions, for updates, or to help find a music instructor at nicole.vaillancourt@ocdsb.ca.

New registered massage therapy clinic opens in Carp Unique services include infant, heated bamboo massage Jessica Cunha

jessica.cunha@metroland.com

A new registered massage therapy clinic has set up shop in Carp and its owner offers some unique services.

Amanda Foran, who opened the doors to Carp Massage Therapy in December, specializes in infant, heated bamboo and Indian head massage, as well as traditional Swedish and deep tissue massage.

After working for years in local spas – including Mahogany in Carleton Place and Winds of Change in Kanata – Foran made the leap to open her own practice with a focus on promoting overall health.

“I loved the spa atmosphere, but I wanted to get involved in the health aspect; I wanted to be able to help people,” she said about deciding to strike out on her own. “You

The reviews online are all positive.

“Amanda is one of a kind.

Her professionalism, knowledge and kindness goes above and beyond … Dealing with

some health and illness issues, Amanda has really taken the extra time to help out. Her support is greatly appreciated,” wrote one client.

“Relaxation at its best.

Knowledge is her best asset in this relaxing environment,” wrote another.

Located at 411 Donald B. Munro Dr., the Carp Massage Therapy definitely invokes visiting a spa.

The space is done in neutral tones with textured wallpaper along the lower portion of the walls and a minimalist approach to decoration that suits the atmosphere. The massage table is heated and piled with cozy blankets, while low soothing music and dim lighting complete the spa-like feel.

Practicing RMT since 2011, Foran has spent time visiting as many places as possible, learning new techniques and bringing them to her clients.

“I’m always looking for new things to add to my menu,” she said. “I basically think of what I want when I go for a massage and that’s what I try to do for my clients.”

One of her favourite offerings is providing pre-natal and infant massage. She gives parents a hands-on lesson so they can use the techniques at home.

“The benefits are just endless,” said Foran. “It’s good for parent-baby bonding, that’s

The Indian head massage is “absolutely the most relaxing treatment in the world,” said Foran.

She recommends this treatment to those who work desk jobs, who carry tension and stress in the shoulders and head, and who may have postural issues.

Full disclosure: the reporter received this treatment and she can attest to the above statement.

“It’s a massage of mostly the upper body – scalp, facial, shoulders, pressure points – it’s amazing,” Foran said. This treatment takes advantage of therapeutic oils, although clients can opt out.

Visits to Carp Massage Therapy are by appointment only, but Foran’s hours are flexible with booking times available between 9 a.m. and 9 p.m. Monday to Friday, and 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. on weekends.

why I teach it. The parents can take it home and make it a regular thing for their baby.”

She herself uses infant massage on her daughter Layla.

“She’s been getting massages since before she was born,” said Foran, adding infant massage can often help when babies are colicky or experience trouble sleeping. It promotes relaxation, circulation and digestion, and helps stimulate the nervous system and growth.

“I have clients who are two months old all the way up to 92 years old,” she said. “Being able to help people, I find it relaxing even for myself.”

The heated bamboo massage is a treatment Foran found while in Mexico.

“I thought, ‘I have to learn to do this,’” she said.

A popular treatment in the U.S., heated bamboo is a relatively newer treatment in Canada, she said. The bamboo is used as the massage tool as opposed to the RMT’s hands and the heated canes allow for the massage to work deeply into the body’s tissues.

Civic campus makes better use of parking lots Extra spots could mean less stress for patients, visitors Melissa Murray

Patients and visitors familiar with circling the Ottawa Hospital’s Civic campus looking for an open parking spot are in luck.

A new pilot project, launched April 4, will open up about 60 more spaces in the P2 parking lot on Ruskin Street, north of the Ottawa Heart Institute.

Two attendants will help direct drivers to open spaces, asking how long they intend to use the space.

Once the lot is full, other cars can block in the cars of patients with longer visits by leaving keys with the attendant.

Renée Légaré, executive vice-president human resources, who is responsible for security and parking, said the pilot project will last at least six months, when it will be assessed and potentially expanded to the General

and Riverside campuses or other parking garages.

HOT ISSUE

“Parking is always a hot issue,” Légaré said, adding the hospital had received complaints about finding open spots on campus.

She said it wasn’t rare to find between 20 and 30 vehicles circling the garage searching for parking.

“These people don’t deserve to be looking for parking when they are patients or visiting the hospital,” she said.

She’s hoping that allowing more people to park in the lot will help alleviate some of the stress of coming to the hospital, during an already stressful experience.

Légaré added the intent of the project is to be cost-neutral, while also optimizing the number of parking spaces.

started investigating solutions to an emerging parking problem and issued a request for proposals after hearing from patients they had been late for appointments because of the lack of parking.

Line-ups outside the lots were also cause for concern,

The day of the pilot’s launch, 40 of the additional spaces had already been used, she said.

Earlier this year, the provincial government announced they would cap parking rates at hospitals and require reduced prices for weekly and monthly passes.

While the pilot project isn’t expected to provide additional

revenue to the hospital, Légaré said optimizing the spaces and expanding the program could help increase parking revenues when costs are capped.

Parking at the hospital costs $3.50 per half hour or $13 per day.

A weekly pass is $42.25 and a monthly pass is $92, according to the Ottawa Hospital’s website.

Q: A friend tells me that he used a family trust to multiply the use of the lifetime capital gains exemption and saved a lot of tax on the sale of his business. Is a family trust useful for my business?

There are many types and uses of trusts. In essence, a trust is a contractual relationship in which one or more persons (trustees) hold property on behalf of another group of persons (beneficiaries). Family trusts, also known as discretionary family trusts, are a particular type of trust widely used to hold shares of private business corporations.

In the typical discretionary family trust, the trustees are the parents (and often one additional trusted friend or relative) and the income and capital beneficiaries are the parents, their children, grandchildren and remoter relatives, if desired. The trust acquires shares of the active business corporation pursuant to a corporate re-organization, resulting in income to the trust out of dividends from the corporation, and capital gains on disposition of the shares of the corporation. Since income and capital gains retain their character for tax purposes when distributed through a trust, significant tax savings About Allan Snelling

she said.

Other initiatives are also underway that encourage staff to park off site, and the hospital is also working with doctors to stagger appointments to lessen demand during peak hours.

“I’m hoping this is a winwin for the hospital, and that it’s cost-neutral as promised,” Légaré said.

may be realized when proceeds are distributed among family members whose marginal tax rates are lower, or to family members who have not previously used their lifetime capital gains exemption.

Discretionary family trusts also serve other purposes, including business succession and asset protection.

If properly set up, a discretionary family trust may also be “unwound” simply and without adverse tax consequence.

Under the Income Tax Act, a discretionary family trust is deemed to have disposed of its property every 21 years.

This deemed disposition gives rise to a taxable capital gain within the trust, if the property has appreciated in value. Typically a discretionary family trust is wound up before 21 years to avoid the application of the deeming provision.

There are significant tax and legal complexities and traps associated with setting up and using discretionary family trusts. Legal and accounting advice should be obtained.

West Carleton Secondary launches Relay for Life with $95,000 goal Jessica Cunha

jessica.cunha@metroland.com

West Carleton Secondary School students have announced an ambitious fundraising goal of $95,000 for this year’s Relay for Life.

“That’s $95,000 that goes to families in need; that’s $95,000 that goes towards cancer research,” said Fiona Doomasia, marketing captain of the student-led initiative.

The student relay committee held an assembly on April 5 to kick-off this year’s overnight event for the Canadian Cancer Society. The relay will be held from 7 p.m. to 7 a.m.

May 27-28.

Alicia Bedford, co-chair of the relay committee, shared her experience of losing her father to cancer and how the cancer society helped her family.

“This past October my dad passed away from cancer,” said the Grade 11 student. Her father was first diagnosed with colon cancer in 2010.

“Cancer’s been a big part of my life for a long time.”

Money raised through Relay for

Life events goes towards research, as well as support for caregivers and families. Bedford said her father’s treatment cost her family zero dollars because of the Canadian Cancer Society.

“When you’re raising money for relay, you’re doing more than just buying needles for a lab,” she told those assembled. “You’re helping families. You’re helping me.”

Leo Liu, relay ceremonies captain, applied the numbers to the current student body.

“Two in five people will have cancer in their lifetime. One in four people will die from cancer,” he said during his speech. “Of this school of over 1,200 students (that means) 300 will die.”

By participating in the 12-hour relay students “pledge to stand up,” he said. “You and those around you are uniting to fight cancer, for a cancerfree world.”

The school is hoping to attract 65 teams of 10 students for the 12-hour overnight relay. Those who register need to raise a minimum of $150 individually and a number of incen-

The top 20 fundraising teams will receive “relay dollars” to use during the silent auction. The top five teams will also receive priority check-in, while the top fundraising team will receive the previous incentives plus a VIP campsite with electricity.

“I think it’s important everyone get involved because we can make a difference,” said Sasha Main, cochair of the relay committee.

She lost her 14-year-old cousin to lymphoma in 2014. Her next door neighbour also died from cancer.

“Ever since, I’ve been dedicated to making a difference,” said Main.

The relay committee is looking for survivors to honour at the event. For details contact teacher Steve Emmell at 613-832-2773 or at stephen.emmell@ocdsb.ca.

Registration opened to the student body this week. For more information, follow the West Carleton

Relay for Life committee on Facebook (WCSS Relay for Life 2016) or on Twitter (@wcssRelay4Life). To donate online visit the school’s Relay for Life page at www.relayforlife.ca/ westdunrobin.

West Carleton Secondary hosts a Relay for Life event every two years. The 2014 event raised $94,000 - crushing the $80,000 goal for that year. Since the school began holding the events in 2004, it has raised more than $290,000.

New season kicks off 40th year for Madawaska Golf Club ‘We’ve got some big plans for the 40th anniversary’: owner Jake Davies

The Montreal Canadians were the Stanley Cup champions, Jerry Pate was the U.S. Open golf champion, Rocky was the Oscar winner and the Madawaska Golf Club opened its doors for the first time.

This year the golf club located on the border of Ottawa (West Carleton) and Arnprior will be celebrating its 40th anniversary all season long and staff have already been busy getting the course ready for the big year. “Both courses (Twisted Pines and Sumac Grove) are in great shape and came through the winter in good playing condition,� said owner Rick Munro. “There

JAKE DAVIES/SUBMITTED

Kevin Ledgerwood blasts out of the sand on Hole 18 during the 2015 golf season. The Madawaska Golf Club celebrates 40 years in 2016. will be good playing conditions from Day 1.�

Course superintendent Martyn Munro and his team worked hard

during the winter to improve on the work done last year.

Martyn continued his trimming work from last year and now has holes 1, 10, 11 and 18 finished. “It’s pretty much done all the way around now,� Rick said.

Martyn has clipped the low hanging branches from the many hundreds of pine trees that line the courses holes. Not only does this make the Twisted Pine course look stunning, it improves the play of the course for those golfers who hit the ‘rare’ errant shot in to the woods.

The staff has also worked hard to improve the golfer experience off the course as well. Renovations to the clubhouse have allowed staff to move the pro shop in to the clubhouse. “It adds some convenience and brings everything together,� Rick said. “There’s better access, it’s closer to the washroom, it just creates a better feel and improves the experience for our guests.�

Rick is also pleased to say food and beverage supervisor Debbie

Fraser and Pro Shop supervisor Barb Mooney are back and there are no major staff changes this year, “and we think that’s a good thing.�

As to special celebrations honouring 40 years as a local, family-owned business – expect big things all golf season long. “We’ve got some big plans for the 40th anniversary,� Rick said. “But we’re keeping that close to the vest for now.�

Rick says the driving range is clear of snow and will be open soon for golfers to groove their swing, and Sumac Grove and Twisted Pines will follow shortly after that to put that practice to good use.

Gold medal end to the season for Warriors peewee B team Almeida took a pass from Hammel in the second and his slow shot trickled over the line to put the Warriors up 2-1.

The Falcons pulled their goalie with 1:40 left in the third, but Liam Schultz made some diving saves amid many scrambles until time ran out.

The Warriors grabbed another 2-1 victory and earned their spot in the finals with Schultz receiving player of the game.

Tracy Caughell

The West Carleton peewee B1 Warriors finished their season on a winning note as they hoisted a gold trophy after competing against 25 other teams in the Ottawa Year-End Tournament April 1-3.

The players had a shaky start and lost the first game against the Ottawa Centre Gophers on Friday night, with Owen Draycott picking up player-of-the-game for not giving up.

The Warriors shook off the rust and played their hearts out against Canterbury Saturday morning, winning 4-2. Matthis Levesque picked up player-of-thegame, and Ben MacMullin and Marcus Almeida scored with Ty Von Boetticher and Thomas Hammel assisting.

The team was out to the east end Saturday night to play Petawawa. The intensity was high, the passing crisp.

The Warriors scored the game’s first goal in the second period. The tying goal went in with two minutes left in the third.

Four-on-four overtime commenced and the goalies stayed strong.

Time was ticking down when the Warriors goalie made a save. Stuart Caughell scooped up the rebound and passed it to forward

Top row, from left: Stuart Caughell, Liam Schultz, Ty Von Boetticher, Michael Clark, Matthis Levesque, Marcus Almeida, and Owen Draycott. Missing from the photo is Tyler Cooney.

Levesque at the blue line.

Levesque passed it up to Almeida at centre ice. Almeida saw Caughell speeding up the side and made a great passplay.

Caughell broke through two defensemen, shot it top corner, and with 22 seconds left on the clock scored one of the biggest goals of his life and ended the game in over-

time.

The Warriors took the sudden victory 2-1 with Caughell earning player-ofthe-game for his overtime heroics.

The team’s intensity carried forward to the semifinals. The Warriors scored 30 seconds into the game against the West End B5 Falcons.

The Falcons would not end their season easily, and put up a flurry of pressure, until they tied it up with one minute left in the first period.

The Warriors played the well-coached Southend ThunderHawks in the gold medal game.

What a team effort it was – Tim Donaldson and Liam Cavanagh clearing pucks, Curtis Crowder making zone-clearing passes, Michael Clark never out of position, and Schultz making save after save.

With nine minutes left in the third, Draycott got loose and took it from his own zone all the way down the ice as the ThunderHawks were on a change. He sped by the defenders and took a shot

that went in.

That one goal was all that the Warriors needed. A 1-0 shutout won the game and the gold trophy for the West Carleton peewee B1 Warriors.

Crowder earned player-ofthe-game for his playmaking abilities and Schultz earned tournament MVP – he made diving saves, glove saves, even facemask saves in the incredible run to the finals.

Any journey to the gold trophy includes perseverance, positive attitudes, hard work, sibling sacrifices, great leadership, and trust in teammates and coaches.

This was the first tournament gold trophy for most, and lifetime memories for all.

Special thanks to coach Murray and assistant coaches Darren and Pete, goalie coach Steve with trainer Marc and manager Nancy who were positive examples all year-round and taught fair play and team efforts.

“We are proud of our team, our coaches and our parents and siblings for this true team effort. Congratulations Warriors. You earned it.”

Wrestling sisters earn silvers in Pickering Two Arnprior area sisters travelled to Pickering with their wrestling coach Kevin Mayhew of Fitzroy Harbour on the April 2-3 weekend to compete at the Durham Classic Elementary tournament.

The tournament was the first time the pair had been out of the Ottawa area to wrestle, so they had a few nervous moments before the tournament began. But once the day started, the girls were ready.

April Toupin was in the Novice

Age group in a tough weight class. She won her first two matches with pins.

Her final match saw her wrestle the full four minutes with the score ending in a tie at 10-10. Unfortunately two points had been scored against her in the final five seconds, which cost her the match but earned her a secondplace medal.

Emily Toupin wrestled in the Kids Age group and competed very well, winning her first match quickly. She ended up losing to a Kingston area

Despite rainy days, freezes and thaws, Calabogie Ski Racing Club’s alpine athletes managed to conquer the slopes again this year.

The U18 FIS racers closed their season with championships and a slalom at Mount Antoine in Mattawa. In championships, Tarik Hamrouni (Barrhaven) placed second overall with strong performances in Giant Slalom at Calabogie Peaks and slalom at Camp Fortune.

The U16 group travelled to Collingwood in early March to compete at Provincials, then closed the season out with championships March 26-27. Pembroke racer Sam Duff’s four provincial podiums guaranteed him a spot at the CanAm races at Mont Tremblant March 17-20.

He then went on to win the overall CanAm Championship. This, in turn, qualified him to join Team Canada at the Whistler Cup in British Columbia, where he will compete with the best 14- and 15-year-old racers from all over the world. Calabogie Ski Racing is incredibly proud to have one of their own representing the club on the international stage.

The other U16s finished their season with some rather mixed results. Provincials provided a multitude of spectacular crashes, but not so many finishes. Jack Alexander (Carp), having been unable to complete a race at this time, redeemed himself with

Sign up for the Diefenbooker, support your library The Diefenbooker Classic has been a great success for 20 years.

If you haven’t experienced it before, organizers are urging you to “come on out and join in the fun.” There are events for all ages and stages of fitness.

Events include 5- and 10km running races, a 5-km

West Carleton Review - Thursday, April 14, 2016 49

Carp manufacturer moving to larger premises Just 18 months since launching its business, CCI Balconies is moving from Carp to more spacious premises in Arnprior.

A Town of Arnprior news release explains the high efficiency balcony system manufacturer needs more space to accommodate its current success and future expansion plans.

The company announced last

week it is moving from Carp to a plant on 5th Avenue in Arnprior to take advantage of the area’s skilled industrial labour force and easy access to main transportation routes.

Accompanying CCI Balconies to its new location is the custom composites manufacturer and sister company Competition Composites.

For more than 15 years Compe-

tition Composites has been building specialized composite parts for the marine, military, aerospace and telecommunications industries.

“CCI and CCI Balconies are an excellent employment addition to Arnprior’s diverse and highly skilled industrial profile,” said Mayor David Reid.

“Town staff have been working with CCI over the past few months

to assist with their relocation and we look forward to continuing to work together as they grow their business.”

CCI Balconies develops a composite balcony system for high- and low-rise buildings that dramatically decreases the amount of energy lost where a balcony connects to an apartment unit.

With a growing client list and

pending certification, the company anticipates that the product’s energy efficiency (as well as its strength, durability, and design options) will make composite balconies the preferred choice in the industry.

For more information on CCI Balconies and Competition Composites, visit www.ccibalconies. com and www.fastcomposites.ca respectively.

Perfect lifestyle for all types of people

KANATA AND STITTSVILLE

Ottawa’s west end still a fast growing community Jen Traplin Known for its bountiful green spacaes, booming high-tech industry, popular attractions like the Canadian Tire Centre (home of the Ottawa Senators) and the Diefenbunker, as well as a wide array of residential communities, the City of Ottawa’s west end offers the perfect lifestyle for just about anyone.

The area has enjoyed steady growth for decades, particularly in Kanata, one of Ottawa’s largest suburbs, and Stittsville, which lies just west of Kanata and roughly 30 minutes from the downtown core.

15 years ago, before Kanata became part of the amalgamated City of Ottawa, it was one of

the fastest growing communities in Canada, a trend that continues to this day. More than 80,000 Ottawa residents now call Kanata home and the area is constantly expanding, not just in terms of residential development but business as well.

Kanata North houses many of the major hitech employers in Ottawa, including Cisco Systems, Inc., Blackberry and Mitel, and rumours continue to swirl about Apple setting up shop in the same business park, the largest research and tech park in the country.

Just a few kilometres west is Stittsville, which started as a sleepy farming community in the 1800s and has since transformed into a bustling suburb, while still managing to hang onto its village charm.

Recently, the City of Ottawa released a Community Design Plan for Stittsville, which aims to preserve the heritage status of the area while also transforming it into a modern and more walkable community.

Big city living with village charm WESTERN SUBURB

The past ten years has seen big changes for Stittsville Jen Traplin One of the Ottawa region’s best kept secrets is the small, western suburb of Stittsville, which offers all of the luxuries of big city living while still holding onto its historic village charm.

In the past decade, the population of Stittsville has exploded as the area has undergone a massive transformation.

“There are a lot of new businesses coming in and there are a ton of new people. We’re over 30,000 people in Stittsville,” says Glen Gower, vice president of the Stittsville Village Association. “It’s really changed in the last five years.”

During that time, there has been a steady stream of new residential builds and several big box stores — like Michaels, Winners and Lowe’s — have moved into new retail locations along the now widened Hazeldean Road.

“On one hand, you’re getting these really big businesses and chain stores and, at the same time, we’re getting a lot of really interesting, locally owned small businesses as well,” Gower says.

“I’m thinking of places like Covered Bridge

Ottawa-born musician Kathleen Edwards opened Quitters Coffee in Stittsville. CONTRIBUTED

Brewing, a craft brewer on Iber Road, or Quitters Coffee, owned by Kathleen Edwards, and a lot of other small businesses like the food trucks coming in.”

Of course, at the heart of Stittsville’s draw is

its village charm. Many of the buildings along Stittsville Main Street are designated heritage status. While some have been preserved, others have been neglected, creating a bit of a turning point, in terms of Stittsville’s identity.

“I think Stittsville is still figuring out what kind of community it really is. Is it a little bit outside of Ottawa -- that idea that it’s a bit beyond the fringe? Or is it a modern suburb? I don’t know,” admits Gower.

Hand-me-down box came with a colourful surprise The Spring hand-me-down box from Aunt Lizzie was waiting for us at the station in Renfrew.

The stationmaster had called ... a man of few words, and all he said was, “it’s here.” We knew exactly what he was talking about. It would mean a trip into Renfrew with the flat-bottomed wagon.

The wooden box, which had one time held bulk tea and was lined with a heavy silver kind of paper, was much too big for the buggy. So the team was hitched to the wagon, and Father made the 12-and-a-half-mile trip into Renfrew.

It was almost suppertime by the time we saw Father come in the lane. With the three brothers helping, the big box was heaved into the kitchen, where it would sit until our evening meal was over, the kitchen redded up, and our hands washed.

I could never understand why we all had to wash our

Mary Cook’s Memories MARY COOK

hands before we could touch an old and badly marked-up box that came all the way from Regina on the CPR train.

Very seldom was there anything in the box besides boy’s clothes and well-worn men’s suits and shirts from Uncle Jack. It was like my sister Audrey and I didn’t even exist, as far as Aunt Lizzie was concerned.

Sometimes, there was a piece of material for Mother, or a pair of high-heeled shoes, which fit no one in our family.

That night, sitting around the box, as Everett pried off the lid with the crowbar, in my mind’s eye, I thought we

looked just like my Sunday school class at the Lutheran Church at Northcote ... all in a circle around Miss Kallies.

And it wasn’t any more exciting either! Why Audrey and I even bothered to sit and wait for the box to be unpacked was beyond me.

Well, were we in for a surprise! Sitting on the very top of the pile of clothes was a big red leghorn hat. (I had no idea why they were called leghorn hats, since I thought a leghorn was a hen running around in the barnyard!)

But there it was, one of Aunt Lizzie’s hats. She loved red, and Audrey said that’s why it was Mother’s least fa-

vourite colour. The crown of the hat was mashed down as flat as a pancake by the lid of the box, but the brim was in perfect condition.

I thought the hat would be perfect for the days my little friend Velma and I dressed up in our mother’s clothes to play house.

Well, Mother had a different idea. It was like someone had just handed her a $100 bill! She went right to the mirror at the back door, wearing the hat.

My sister let out a snicker. “Mother, you can’t wear that with the crown all smashed down.”

A flat crown was not going to stop Mother from wearing the hat, and she went right to the wood box where a stack of Renfrew Mercury papers were at the ready, and scrunched up several and crammed them into the hat. Right before our eyes we could see the hat transformed into something that would only be seen on

the head of one of Renfrew’s richest women!

I knew the hat would be going to the Lutheran Church on Sunday!

And it did. And it certainly caught the attention of the other ladies. Many complimented Mother, which pleased me no end!

We took our pew and Father had to move over from Mother, because the wide brim of the hat caught him square in the face when she turned her head. So I sat beside her, taking many a look at Aunt Lizzie’s hat that had found new life out there in Renfrew county.

Half way through the sermon, I glanced at the hat, and poking out, just above Mother’s ear, was a good sized piece of the Renfrew Mercury advertising silk bloomers at .20 cents a pair. I was torn.

Should I try to stuff the piece back into the hat, tell Mother what was happening, or let nature take its course?

I decided to poke the paper back into the hat, which caused Mother to glare down at me as if I had committed some deadly sin. I whispered to her, as quietly as I could what was happening, which caused the minister to glare down at me, but I could tell Mother was grateful.

Heaven forbid that the entire Lutheran Church know that her beautiful leghorn hat was stuffed with the Renfrew Mercury!

She never wore the hat again, but Velma and I were thrilled to prance around the house in it, pretending we were one of those rich women from Renfrew, who bought eggs and butter from our Mothers every Saturday.

Prior Chest Nuts look for new dragon boat teammates Jessica Cunha

jessica.cunha@metroland.com

The Prior Chest Nuts are looking for five breast cancer survivors to join their dragon boat team this year.

“We need people right now,” said Jeanette Grant, a member of the team. “We’ve lost five people to breast cancer in five years.”

A plaque with the names of the deceased is displayed on the Chest Nuts’ boat “so they can keep paddling with us,” said Grant. “They remind us why we paddle.”

The team is usually made up of about 20 breast cancer

survivors from across the Valley. Members come from Arnprior, McNab-Braeside, Pakenham, Renfrew, and as far as Kanata. Anyone who has had breast cancer is invited to join.

“We welcome men as well as women,” said Grant. “If anyone’s had breast cancer and wants to paddle, give us a call.”

The motion of paddling is good exercise for those who have undergone treatment for breast cancer, said Grant, adding the motion really helps to work out the upper body.

The Chest Nuts held their annual spring tea and fashion show on April 9. The parish

Rene Campbell, Kathy McMahon, Donna Chateauvert, Michelle Nicholas, Laura Campbell and Erica Campbell enjoy the event.

hall at St. John Chrysostom was packed with more than 220 people enjoying the goodies and seeing the fashions provided by A Dash of Fab. A silent auction, 50-50 draw, door prizes and more rounded out the event, which helps to fund the dragon boat team.

The Prior Chest Nuts were founded in 2010 at a breast cancer support group meeting. Since then, the team has participated in numerous dragon boat events, including the International Breast Cancer Survivor Dragon Boat Festival in Sarasota, Florida.

Practices are twice a week on White Lake from May to September, and the team participates in various festivals and events throughout Ottawa and the Valley.

Sheila Vandekemp kicked off the fundraiser for the non-profit radio station with her old-time country show and it was apparent from the first half hour that Sunday was going to be a special day.

When the microphones were

Excitement mounts as Rural Root gears up for spring play Affections of May hits the stage May 10 to 14 The Rural Root Theatre Company kicks off its new season with a spring production of a delightful comedy by Norm Foster.

The West Carleton-based theatre group will bring Affections of May to life under the experienced direction of Helen Weeden. The cast is rehearsing with dedication, enjoying playing Foster’s wonderful characters.

Foster is a renowned Canadian playwright whose plays are beloved across the country. He has been the most produced playwright in Canada every year for the past 20 years.

His plays receive an average of 150 productions annually, making him, by far, the most produced playwright in the history of this country.

“Norm Foster has a knack for creating winning characters and situations that make audiences respond with affection,” says the Toronto Globe & Mail.

Affections of May is no exception.

When May and her husband Brian move out to the country to run a B & B, May hopes their marriage will get back on track in the quaint, friendly setting.

The trouble is Brian doesn’t like country life and has found himself another woman back in the city. The scoundrel

leaves, but not before a big breakfast.

May is left alone in this small town (where everyone knows everyone’s affairs) to continue running the business.

Now she’s a “single” woman, it doesn’t take long for the suitors to appear at her door.

Affections of May proves that courting can be both awkward and hilarious, as well as hot and spicy; all over a game of Scrabble.

May is certainly finding out a lot about single life, but at the same time will she find herself ? And who will win the Affections of May? “This is one of those shows that make you feel like you’re a voyeur into someone’s life,” says Weeden, the play’s director. “Norm Foster does a wonderful job of revealing the depth of the characters as the scenes play out.”

Affections of May, staged by Rural Root Theatre Company at the Constance and Buckham’s Bay Community Centre, will run from May 10 to the 14.

Curtains open at 7:30 each night. A matinee is offered on Saturday, May 14 at 2 p.m.

PAMELA STOWERS/SUBMITTED Tickets cost $15 each and can be May (Tanja Puchala) and Hank (Jason Matheson) rehearse a scene from Rural Root Theatre’s Afbought online at http://www.ruralroot. fections of May, which will run May 10 to 14 in Constance Bay.
