Students raise $75,000 for fight against cancer Jessica Cunha

jessica.cunha@metroland.com

West Carleton Secondary School students raised more than $75,000 for this year’s Relay for Life event.

Forty-one teams of 10 students took to the school’s track for the 12-hour relay on May 27-28.

“The importance of what you’re doing tonight is huge,” said Stephen Eisenhauer, music teacher at Kanata's Jack Donohue Public School and one of the many cancer survivors honoured during the relay.

Eisenhauer, who has taught many of the students at West and often discussed the importance of critical thinking in his class, was diagnosed with stage four Hodgkin's lymphoma in 2014.

“While I was in the hospital I learned that in order to really defeat this disease we need critical thinking, but we also need the innovators, we need the courage for people to push the boundaries, which is not the easiest thing to do,” he said.

“I'm very happy to say that because of people who

are willing to push that boundary and innovate, I'm going to be able to see (my) kids graduate from this high school in 2026, 2028 and 2031. I hope that you know that what you’re doing tonight very much plays into that.”

Many of those relaying had personal reasons for taking part – WCSS teacher Michelle Pert was diagnosed with a rare form of skin cancer at age 13. Now 48, she and her daughter Molly Stewart, 13, took part in the survivor lap and dinner.

‘You are making a difference’: CCS Continued from page 1

Grade 11 student Dani Joshi was walking for her aunt, who is currently battling cancer, while her classmate Kate Moir was walking in memory of her grandfather who passed away from cancer earlier this year.

Shivani Sivabalan said this is the reason they relay.

“It is so important to rally together so we can tell our children what cancer used to be,” she said.

Although the funds raised were $20,000 short of the goal set and participation numbers were down from 2014, the school raised more funds per student than at the last event, said teacher Stephen Emmell.

This year saw 380 students take part and raise about $200 each, while 2014 had 550 participators who raised about $170 each, he said.

“I’m really thrilled,” said Emmell. “We actually raised more per person than we did two years ago.” $1,249,000

Masons help honour those who served with cornerstone ceremony

On May 28 the Carleton Masonic Lodge No. 465 held a cornerstonelaying ceremony at the West Carleton War Memorial in Carp.

Pictured after the ceremony are Dan Gray, (acting) Senior Warden Carleton Masonic Lodge; Don Mumby, Past Grand Master Grand Lodge of Canada in the Province of Ontario; Peter Pregel, Worshipful Master Carleton Masonic Lodge; Stuart Hodge, West Carleton War Memorial committee chair; and Rick Coker, Junior Warden Carleton Masonic Lodge.

War memorial to be officially dedicated June 18 Tiffany Lepack

TIFFANY LEPACK/METROLAND

It was a historic moment in Carp on a sunny Saturday, May 28.

The Carleton Masonic Lodge No. 465 was honoured to lay the cornerstone for the new West Carleton War Memorial.

W.Bro. Blake Farmer, secretary at the lodge, thanked the Carp Business Improvement Association, the War Memorial Committee and many others for the opportunity to perform the ancient ceremony that goes back to the middle ages when Masons were building cathedrals in Europe.

“Thank you … for granting Carleton Masonic Lodge the privilege and valued opportunity to lay the cornerstone of this magnificent new memorial to the sons and daughters of West Carleton,” said Farmer.

He shared a story with the large crowd gathered at the yet to be finished grounds of the new memorial about a plaque that was given to the lodge on June 6, 1916 in honour of their late member Lt. Col. Calvin Wilson.

He was initiated into the lodge on May 24, 1912 and died while on duty in the service of

Canada on Oct. 20, 1918.

The bronze plaque still hangs at the lodge.

“In many ways, that was the first of many commemorations and thank yous from our community and Masons to the brave sons and daughters of West Carleton and Canada,” said Farmer.

“Today, Carleton Masonic Lodge renews its century-long commitment to the many, and to the few who served and perished in the service of Canada.”

Most Worshipful Brother Donald H. Mumby. Past Grand Master Grand Lodge of Canada in Ontario, lead the ceremony which saw the laying of ancient tools; the square, the level and the Plumb rule to ensure the stone was set true.

Mumby led the more than 60 Masons who were on hand from the following communities: Carleton, Kanata, Orleans, Smiths Falls, Ottawa, Arnprior and Aylmer.

They dedicated the stone in part by saying: “We dedicate this memorial as a place of remembrance and thanks … in memory of great company of men and women who made the supreme sacrifice in order that we may enjoy our freedom and liberty ... to all those who shall follow, finding faith to uphold, hope to encourage and charity to share with all mankind.”

Notice of Community Consultation NAV CANADA proposes changes to Ottawa flight paths NAV CANADA is seeking public input regarding proposed changes to flight paths for aircraft arriving to Ottawa Macdonald-Cartier International Airport.

The proposed flight paths are estimated to save up to two minutes flying time for arrivals while greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions reductions are estimated at 750 metric tonnes each year. Where possible, portions of flight paths have been relocated over less populated areas.

Some of the new approach paths will lever new technology – known as Required Navigation Performance (RNP) – that combines satellite-based positioning with modern flight management systems, allowing an aircraft to fly a precise route. This allows for the design of flight paths that are shorter and that provide for a continuous descent.

Initially, only a small portion of aircraft – less than 25 per cent – will be equipped to fly the new procedure. As part of the proposed redesign, some standard arrival routes are also being updated.

No changes are proposed for departure routes.

NAV CANADA has made information – including maps – on proposed flight path changes available online at www.navcanada.ca/YOW. Residents are invited to learn about changes and provide feedback using the comment tool available on the website by June 30, 2016. Residents can also attend one of the following Open House Consultation Events:

Mumby was then presented with corn, oil and red wine to pour at the base of the stone.

The corn represented an emblem of plenty, the wine was an emblem of joy, and the oil an emblem of comfort and consolation.

He also tapped the stone with a mallet cut from an oak beam that was nearly 300 years old as he proclaimed the stone to be dedicated to the “glory of the Great Architect of the Universe and in thankful memory of all those who served.

May generations yet to come in this community celebrate with humble thanks for the sacrifices of the past, the blessings of the present and the

sure and certain hope of the future.”

West Carleton War Memorial committee chair Stuart Hodge said the involvement of the lodge in the project was huge.

For the committee it was symbolic that completion of the memorial is near.

“The focus is to honour the war traditions, but we have to respect the traditions of the lodge,” said Hodge.

Ward 5, West Carleton-March Coun. Eli El-Chantiry echoed Hodges’ sentiments of respecting the lodge’s traditions.

“It was a great ceremony and tradition,” said El-Chantiry. “It’s great to see the community involved in

the memorial on all levels.”

Both are looking forward to the unveiling of the memorial on Saturday, June 18 at 2 p.m. “When we honour the people who served this country from the First World War to Afghanistan,” said El-Chantiry.

“It represents the sacrifices the veterans made so we can be free to enjoy the best democracy in the world.”

The cornerstone has not yet been cemented into place and the lodge is accepting ideas as to what to add to the time capsule inside the stone.

Items should be practical and fit in the three-inch by 10-inch space.

Email Farmer with any ideas at SecretaryCarletonLodge465@ gmail.com.

A motion by the city's police board chairman Eli El-Chantiry asking the province to loosen the rules in the Highway Traffic Act to allow civilians to direct traffic was approved by Ottawa council on May 25.

“If we do need a police officer we can call a police officer,” El-Chantiry said. “If we don’t, we will have traffic staff dealing with those issues.”

El-Chantiry has said with construction underway for the city’s light rail project, now is the time to ask the province.

El-Chantiry estimates that the city pays between $600,000 and $700,000 per year on costs related to having officers direct traffic during construction or special events.

Mayor Jim Watson has been vocal about his stance on the issue, saying that he’d rather see cops and their cruisers fighting crime instead of manning street barricades during parades.

When El-Chantiry first introduced the

motion at the end of April, Watson said that with scarce dollars and little wiggle room with respect to negotiating police officer salaries, municipalities are going to have to get creative in how police resources are used.

Watson has said he plans a trip to Queen's Park in Toronto to meet with provincial ministers to discuss the issue. visit us at

Legion community garden launches Theft of supplies caused delay Jessica Cunha

jessica.cunha@metroland.com

The community outreach program at the West Carleton Legion continues to grow with the official opening of its free community garden, which took place Saturday, May 28.

The launch, which was originally scheduled for earlier in the spring, was delayed after $300 to $500 worth of materials was stolen from the legion over the winter, said John Woodbeck, community outreach committee chair with Sean McCarthy.

“Someone or some people decided they needed the dirt and boards more than we did,” said Woodbeck.

No police report was filed after the theft.

“We decided not to; we didn’t think it was good for the community,” said Woodbeck. “We just looked at it and said it is what it is.”

The legion was able to replace all the stolen goods thanks to its partnership with the Carp Ridge Learning Centre, he said.

Now that the community garden is ready for the growing season, Woodbeck is hoping people will come forward to claim the remaining plots.

The community garden features 28 plots, and more than half are still available to those who would like to grow their own produce.

“The cost is right, it’s nothing.

We decided to waive all the fees,” he said.

The community garden plots are open to anybody – people don’t need to be members of the legion to take part and they don’t need to have prior gardening experience, said Woodbeck, who’s been growing vegetables for more than 30 years.

“We have people on site to help, all you have to do is ask. The whole idea is to get people out in the community, do some gardening, interact,” he said. “We’re trying to bring that exchange forward.”

The community garden will be accessible seven days a week, from 7 a.m. to 7 p.m.

FOCUS ON FOOD

The outreach program is a multi-phase endeavour with a focus on food security.

Legion Branch 616, located in Constance Bay, has revamped its TGIF meals with two choices of protein and various side dishes, vegetables and dessert on Fridays.

The cost is $10 for adults and $5 for children under age nine.

There is also a meal subsidy program in place for those in need.

Submitted

Sean McCarthy, left, and John Woodbeck, with the West Carleton Legion’s community outreach program, build the garden boxes. The community garden at the legion officially opened on May 28.

“They can get a meal card and come in for a nice meal. We’re trying to help out and give back,” said Woodbeck.

Free healthy cooking classes are scheduled to begin around mid-June and the legion is looking for people who are interested in taking part.

“If we get two or three people signed up we’ll do it,” said Woodbeck.

Same goes for a youth gardening class – if there’s enough interest from the community the legion will offer the workshops.

“We’re just trying to reach out and help the community,” said Woodbeck.

For more information on any of the programs, call the legion at 613-832-2082.

Sens and city big winners with Phillips

I

t was expected.

The May 26 retirement of Chris Phillips as an NHL player was a day of celebration in more ways than one.

A celebration of what is so rare these days, a professional sports career that started and ended with the same team.

A celebration of all that Phillips had accomplished on the ice as a hockey player, and a celebration that Phillips, after just under 20 years as a staple of the Senators’ blueline, will be staying with the team in a front office role that involves community programs, alumni relations and business development.

That front office role plays to Phillips’ strengths not only as a former hockey player but as a man, who along with his wife Erin and his family, has shown over his time in this city that as a member of the community he now calls home, he has always been an all-star.

Let’s be honest, as a No. 1 overall NHL draft pick in 1996, Phillips was not the game changer for an organization that some other number ones have been. He was no Sidney Crosby or Mario Lemieux, or Connor McDavid.

He had a long, and productive career for the Ottawa Senators, but you could never call Phillips a superstar on the ice. The Senators did not score a so-called generational top draft pick player such as Crosby has become, when they picked Phillips first overall in the NHL draft.

But the Senators did score big with Phillips in getting a special person who has enriched our community through his tireless efforts with charities and other community initiatives that he, and his family, have taken to heart.

Phillips has been a community superstar, and at the end of the day, that will always be more important than how many points a player gets.

“Today is a happy day,” Phillips, who goes down in team history as having played more games for the organization than anyone else, said at his retirement press conference.

Indeed, despite all the well-deserved accolades that have been coming Phillips’ way, perhaps the best news is that Phillips and his family now call Ottawa their home and they will continue to enrich our community for years to come.

And, for the City of Ottawa, that is as big a win as you can get on or off the ice.

Laser awareness may not be good enough

P

eople do behave badly and preventing them from doing so is one of the things we expect government to do.

So it was with a certain amount of interest that we anticipated Transport Minister Marc Garneau’s response to a growing misuse of laser pointers.

While laser pointers have many positive uses, aiming them at airplanes is not one of them. An increasing number of people have been doing that. In the U.S. there were more than 5,000 laser incidents reported last year, up about 1,000 from the year before. In Canada, there were 600 incidents and there have been 148 incidents so far this year.

Some laser pointers can shoot beams as far as eight kilometres.

When someone on the ground aims a high-powered laser at an airplane,

The British Airline Pilots association demanded that laser pointers be classified as offensive weapons after a Virgin Atlantic flight was forced to turn back after it was struck by a beam outside Heathrow Airport in March.

So, what did Canada’s transport minister do? He said the RCMP and local police will step up enforcement. He said offenders will face up to $900,000 in fines, five years in prison, or both.

That was good. But mostly he announced an awareness campaign.

It will make use of social media to tell people that pointing lasers at airplanes is bad. There’s a hashtag and everything. And there’s a YouTube video too.

Will that really do it, do you think? The former Conservative government tried something similar a year or two ago. Obviously, it didn’t work, so there should be some incentive to go further.

the minister of justice and the government’s point person on the legalization of marijuana, criticized the number of marijuana dispensaries that are popping up in Canada’s big cities. They were reckless and illegal, he said. But he didn’t say if the feds were going to do anything about them. Cities are trying to handle the problem through municipal licensing department.

Perhaps the feds could shame them on Twitter?

Returning to lasers, doesn’t it make sense to stop these things from being sold and distributed? Even those who celebrate the positive uses of lasers say that there is no justification for laser pointers beyond a certain power.

It is already illegal to point a laser at an aircraft, so it is not as if there is no precedent for acting. The government could draw a line, referencing the power of a laser, beyond which it would be illegal to sell or own.

Connected to your community

Calling all you farmwives, share your stories All it takes is a short stroll through social media to realize I am not the only farmwife out there.

I am not the only accidental one either. There are accidental farmwives, trophy farmwives, seven-generation farmwives and celebrity farmwives.

Many times these other farmwives are brought to my attention.

I read their blogs and their books and they inspire me.

Kate Humble has a book – and a website – called Humble by Nature. You can look her up there. I think she also has a TV show in the UK, because that’s where she began – as a television host.

One day she was in an underwater cave as part of a documentary film shoot and she had a moment of panic. I think it was something along the lines of “what if I get trapped and die down here? I haven’t done all I want to do yet.”

(That may not be exactly how it happened but that’s how I remember it.)

When she got home from that

DIANA FISHER Accidental Farmwife trip, she convinced her partner to buy a piece of property out in the country with her.

At first they just worked on restoring and improving their own heritage farmland plot. Soon they added laying hens, a weird-looking pair of flatulent pigs, some sheep and, of course, a sheepdog.

Before they knew it, they were smallholders. That’s what hobby farming is called over on that side of the pond.

One day Kate and her hubby heard the municipally-owned farmland next door to theirs was going on the market.

They worried about the tract housing that might be developed there, potentially destroying their sunset views and bucolic existence.

It seemed although they had moved away from the cramped quarters of the city, the city was threatening to follow them out to the land of stone cottages and rail fences. So they found a way to buy the land.

Over the next few years, Kate turned that extra farmland into a teaching farm.

People can take courses there on the heritage method of fencebuilding, flower arranging, basic animal husbandry, jams, jellies and even cider-making. She has a small gift shop and a café at her farm.

I would love to go there someday, if I can get the Farmer on a plane to Europe.

Another fabulous farmwife who is both entertaining and inspiring is The Pioneer Woman – Ree Drummond. My introduction to Ree came via her photographic cookbook – which contains recipes that everyone loves and even I can follow.

Ree grew up in a golf course community somewhere in the

Funding to our health care system will increase by over $1 billion this year.

States and then lived in California, I believe, before she fell in love with a farmer, from her hometown.

Now they live on a ranch in Oklahoma. They feed the wild horses on their property, raise children and beef cattle and vegetables.

Ree blogs and takes photos, hosts a cooking show and homeschools her children. She is hilarious and uplifting.

From her I learned that a farmwife should keep a bag of sugar in the barn. If you have an animal with a prolapse, you can push the entire mess into the bag of sugar and it will immediately shrink and retract up into the body cavity where it belongs.

Sounds absolutely disgusting and I have never had to use it, but

it is awe-inspiring nonetheless.

I know from my eight-plus years writing this column and reading your emails that there are many other farmwives out there.

Some of you are new at the gig, others are born to it and others are former farmwives with sharp memories of the experience.

My stories often remind you of yours and so I am inviting you to share them with me so I can share them with others.

I am going to be collecting those stories, combining them with photos and doing something special with them in the near future.

In celebration of the farmwife, be she accidental, purposeful, traditional or hopeful. www.theaccidentalfarmwife. blogspot.com email: dianafisher1@gmail.com

letter Notice of Commencement Transit Project Assessment Process Western Extension of the Confederation Line Light Rail Transit

Don’t let law-breakers deter photo radar

The Project The City of Ottawa is proposing to expand the City’s Confederation Line Light Rail Transit (LRT) network, currently under construction, to the east, west and southwest regions of the City. The Western Extension of the Confederation Line Light Rail Transit includes extending the Confederation Line further west from Tunney’s Pasture Station to Baseline and Bayshore Stations as well as a developing a Maintenance and Storage Facility in the Nepean-Woodroffe corridor, south of Norice Avenue. The purpose of this project is to provide a higher level of transit service to growing communities in the west and southwest of the city, a need identified in the City of Ottawa’s 2013 Transportation Master Plan.

The Plan will: • Add 13 kilometres of rail and 10 LRT stations to the City’s overall transit network at Westboro, Dominion, Cleary, New Orchard, Lincoln Fields, Iris, Baseline, Queensview, Pinecrest, and Bayshore.

• Connect directly to the West Transitway and the Southwest Transitway to facilitate connections to the communities of Kanata and Barrhaven.

The Process Planning efforts have been completed and this project will be assessed according to the Transit Project Assessment Process (TPAP) as prescribed in Ontario Regulation 231/08. As part of the TPAP, an Environmental Project Report (EPR) will be prepared by the proponent; the City of Ottawa, to document the study process, the environmental conditions, alternatives considered, the planned project, anticipated environmental impacts, appropriate mitigation and the project’s consultation program.

During the Notice of Commencement phase of the environmental assessment, copies of the draft Environmental Project Report (EPR) will be available to provide interested parties time to review and provide feedback prior to the formal 30-day public review period following the posting of the Notice of Completion.

The draft EPR will be available in print at the locations below: City Hall Client Service Centre 110 Laurier Avenue West Ottawa, ON K1P 1J1

Centrepointe Library (Nepean) 101 Centrepointe Dr. Ottawa, ON K2G 5K7

Carlingwood Library 281 Woodroffe Ave Ottawa, ON K2A 3W4

A digital version of the draft EPR will be available for downloading, in whole or in part, at the following web address: Ottawa.ca/westernlrt.

Consultation Interested persons are invited to review the work completed to-date during the planning phase including a study summary, previous consultation efforts and reports presented to City Council. This information is available on the City web site at: Ottawa.ca/westernlrt Given the extent of prior consultation, and the availability of a draft Environmental Project Report (EPR) for public review, it is anticipated that the City will issue the Notice of Completion in early September 2016 (which is within the maximum 120-day period in the TPAP Regulation). Notification will be provided in advance of the formal 30day public review period. Further information on the Transit Projects Assessment Process is available at:

To the Editor: Re: Jennifer McIntosh’s article, West Carleton Review, May 19.

I read with amazement the reference article on Ottawa City council debate regarding the use of traffic monitoring measures such as photo radar.

In 2014, Mayor Watson was in favour of expanding the red-light camera project, as reported by CTV news (http://ottawa. ctvnews.ca/more-than-17-000-cars-caughtby-red-light-cameras-in-2014-1.2416091), yet now he seems to be somewhat reluctant about proceeding with photo radar on the streets of Ottawa.

Again the argument seems to be a familiar one – the public’s concern that this would be nothing more than a cash grab.

Additionally, Councillor Chiarelli argues that police presence is the best way to change driver behaviour.

First to Councillor Chiarelli’s claim: where are the statistics to validate your claim?

Being a frequent driver on the provincial 400 series highways, I see little antidotal evidence of such a claim, as I watch drivers continue to speed shortly after passing active police speed traps.

I do, on the other hand, give support to your additional observation that there is a second order benefit of the police being able to observe behaviour and signs of intoxication.

Yes, continue to use the police service as a control mechanism, but unfortunately, the City will never have enough of a police presence to have a significant affect on the problem at hand.

The use of photo radar is not a new concept and is used around the world as a traffic monitoring tool.

Interestingly, I just returned from a vacation where I met people from the U.K., Australia and South Africa and for some reason our conversation one day was about the use of photo radar in their countries.

Even more interestingly, none of them (small sample I would agree) did not see the use of photo radar and the fines that were generated as a ‘cash grab’.

All agreed, it was an imposed penalty for ignoring the posted speed limits and thus breaking the law – which is exactly what it is.

So is it the law breakers in Ottawa who are calling it a ‘cash grab’? Not sure how that is supportable as a persuasive argument against the use of photo radar.

I asked how their jurisdictions dealt with the wrong driver getting fined because the owner of the vehicle was not driving at the time of the infraction.

They indicated that there was a transfer mechanism in place for the owner to have the fine redirected to the person driving at the time.

The group also noted that a simple fine may not always be a deterrent for future behaviour, as the wealthy just pay the fine and keep doing what they were doing as if it was a parking fine.

On the other hand, some jurisdictions also imposed additional demerit points, which drove up insurance rates and possible eventual loss of license.

They also commented that photo radar was combined with red light infraction systems – so the driver was often caught with multiple violations, running the red light and speeding.

So, Mayor Watson and City Council, I ask you to move beyond the debating phase and move forward on protecting the citizens of Ottawa.

Surely, the reduced cost to our police services (when having to investigate accidents due to the aforementioned traffic violations) and cost to our medical system that also result is worth the cost of putting in an active and expanded photo radar system.

Law-abiding citizens have nothing to fear from such action, and law-breakers should not have a voice.

For the province, I request you quickly approve requests for implementing photo radar in provincial jurisdictions that request it, and look at additional penalty measure I outlined above.

“Its not your average garage sale; there’s something for everybody,” said Vicki Price, special events director with the Huntley Community Association. “Even if you're not the garage sale type, there’s lots of stuff going on.”

So far, more than 50 tables

are registered for the sale.

Local businesses and organizations will also have a presence, and activities include a cupcake decorating station, crafts, a line dancing demonstration, balloon creations and face painting, and a butter tart bake-off.

“We wanted to have more of a small town fair kind of feel,” said Price. “It’s getting big. We’re really excited about that.”

The West Carleton Food Access Centre, which has seen its number of clients climb, will have a booth at the event. Councillor Eli El-Chantiry and MP Karen McCrimmon will collect non-perishables and cash

The Carp Colossal Garage Sale will take place inside the horse ring at the fairgrounds at the same time as

the Carp Farmers’ Market, from 8 a.m. to 2 p.m. on Saturday, June 11.

“We want to promote local businesses, so (residents) realize they don’t need to leave, you can get everything you need in Carp,” said Price.

“It’s going to really be A to Z – anything you can imagine could be sold will be there.”

The ticks are here: get informed at naturalists meeting June 7 Karen Runtz

Macnamara Naturalists

Katie Clow has been known to see ticks everywhere.

Closing her eyes after days of dragging wooded and grassy areas for these blood-sucking parasites, visions of ticks, described in a 2014 interview, were understandable.

Clow had returned to the University of Guelph, where she had obtained her doctorate in veterinary medicine three years prior.

The university then became her base for research on Lyme disease - investigating wildlife ecology and factors affecting the distribution of the disease in Ontario - as she pursued a PhD in pathobiology.

In the interim, public awareness of the disease rose, along with associated myths and misconceptions.

RISKS ARE REAL

It is now spring 2016 in the Ottawa Valley. Lyme disease has emerged as a major public health issue and the blacklegged ticks that transmit the disease have turned Southern and Eastern Ontario woods and grassy fields into areas of risk. One likely reason: these areas share borders with Lyme ‘hotspots’ in the United States and are within flight distance for Eastern blacklegged ticks catching rides on migratory birds.

Health Canada estimates that about 10 per cent of blacklegged ticks in any infected area carry the bacterium that causes Lyme disease. The greatest risk of being bitten exists in the spring, summer and fall when more of us are hiking, fishing and camping, enjoying the great outdoors.

So what’s a local to do?

Get protected. Get informed.

A time and place to get practical knowledge is just days away.

The Macnamara Field Naturalist Club has booked Dr. Clow to speak at their next meeting on ‘A Journey into the woods: understanding Lyme disease ecology in Ontario’.

The date is Tuesday, June 7, the location is the Arnprior Curling Club, and, as customary, nonmembers are welcome to attend.

Details are at the end of the article.

Here’s an overview of the presentation: Dr. Clow will explore the key ecological factors associated with the blacklegged tick and Lyme disease in Ontario. Emphasis will be placed on the role of habitat, climate and wildlife for the establishment and spread of this emerging disease. Some of the common

SCOTT BAUER/ WIKIMEDIA COMMONS

An adult female blacklegged tick

myths and misconceptions of Lyme disease will be discussed.

Participants will be provided with practical knowledge on how to protect themselves from blacklegged ticks, while still enjoying the great outdoors.

SNEAKY HITCHHIKERS

The disease itself migrates through the blacklegged ticks that pick up the Lyme bacteria when they feed off already-infected white-footed mice, chipmunks and other small mammals and birds.

The tick, now infected, then passes on the bacteria to a human or other animal during its next feeding cycle.

The ticks need a blood meal from a new host at every life stage (larva, nymph, and adult) to survive.

PROTECTING YOU AND YOURS

If you do venture into forests or overgrown areas, experts recommend that you: • wear light-coloured clothing to make it easier to spot ticks; • apply an insect repellant containing DEET to your skin and clothing; • wear long-sleeved shirts and long pants that you tuck into your socks and closed footwear; • shower or bathe within two hours of being outdoors to wash away loose ticks; • do a daily “full-body” check for ticks on yourself, children and pets.

Don’t miss: A Journey into the woods: understanding Lyme disease ecology in Ontario.

When: Tuesday, June 7, 7:30 p.m.

Where: Arnprior Curling Club, 15 Galvin St., Arnprior Cost: Meetings (and presentations) are free for Macnamara Club members and $5 for guests.

Encounters with the rare and endangered The more time one spends outdoors, the more encounters with wild animals one has.

Sometimes it is with a stunning bird such as a Scarlet Tanager that spends much of its time hidden in the leaf canopy overhead. Other times, it is with a shy and elusive creature, such as a Fisher. And on occasion it is encountering a species so rare that seeing one is like winning a lottery.

Recently I encountered several rarities. After my Birdathon in Prince Edward County (where my team tallied 141 species), I visited four sand spits jutting out into Lake Erie. All four are famous for their southern flora and fauna, many of which don’t range farther north in Canada.

They are also famous for spectacular spring and fall bird migration. It was primarily to see birds that I went there.

I visited Rondeau Provincial Park, Point Pelee National Park and Long Point National Wildlife Area. The first two were accessed by car, but Long Point National Wildlife Area can be reached only by boat, and access is restricted.

Rondeau owns a wonderful blend of mature deciduous forest (including spectacular Tulip Trees) and

Michael Runtz Nature’s Way swamp forest.

It was along a trail meandering through swamp forest where I encountered a male Prothonotary Warbler. This stunning bird – golden head, yellow body, blue-gray wings and tail – was relatively common in Rondeau in earlier days, but the species has undergone an 80 per cent decline in population in the last decade, and today only a few pairs nest in Rondeau. As only about 30 individuals remain in Canada, Prothonotary Warblers are classified as Endangered.

I spent several hours watching the stunning bird forage on branches and logs in the water.

Migrants were scarce at Point Pelee because northeast winds discouraged birds from flying north.

However, I did see another male Prothonotary Warbler at a woodland slough. Sadly, it was alone, and sang incessantly as it searched for a mate.

At 40 kilometres in length, Long Point is the second longest freshwater peninsula in the world. It is home to many unusual plants and animals; Fowler’s Toads and Spiny Softshell Turtles are but two.

There is a bird banding station at the tip, and I was fortunate in spending five days there with Ron Ridout, Bill Crins and Don Sutherland, longtime friends and expert naturalists.

The winds had shifted to the south and on the first two mornings birds filled the trees. Flycatchers, warblers, cuckoos, and two Redheaded Woodpeckers provided fantastic views. On the water we spotted four Pacific Loons, Arctic nesters rarely seen in migration.

One morning two Dickcissels flew past, southwestern birds not commonly encountered in Ontario.

Other rarities encountered included a Cerulean Warbler (also an Endangered Species) and another male Prothonotary Warbler!

It is exciting to encounter rare spe-

MICHAEL RUNTZ

Only about 1,000 Cerulean Warblers (this one photographed at Long Point) are found in Canada; they are on the Endangered Species list primarily because of habitat degradation in the Andes where they spend winter. cies, but it is also sobering to know they are endangered not only because of habitat loss here in Ontario but also and perhaps more importantly in South America where they spend winter.

With our relentless assault on natural habitats around the globe, the list of rare and endangered species is only going to grow longer.

The Carp Ridge EcoWellness Centre offers a chance for children to experience nature in all its glory at its holistic summer camp.

Campers will have the opportunity to forage for edible plants, learn how to prepare meals, get creative with their artistic side and have fun without deadlines, said Katherine Willow, founder of the non-profit centre.

“It’s so special, it’s so different from regular camps. It’s holistic – that means that we’re addressing all parts of the children, not only physical but emotional, mental, social and spiritual,” she said.

“It’s also slowed down. It’s childdriven so the kids won’t be herded from one thing to another like they are all year. This is a way that they can relax and really soak in nature and art and mediation.”

Stress is a big part of today’s culture and the camp offers youth an opportunity to learn more about

themselves without any added pressure, she said.

“We have all kinds of stats on how stressed our culture is and how stressed our kids are,” said Willow.

“Everybody’s too stressed. In our culture there’s always too much time pressure and people don’t get a chance to settle into themselves and then it becomes chronic and you become a stressed adult. (The camp experience) gives you time to settle into yourself, figure out what you like.”

There’s also water play in the afternoons, trail walks and music. At the end of the camp last year, the youth put together a presentation for their parents, which included decorating the entire camp.

“They decorated the path, they hung pine cones – the place looked amazing, magical,” said Willow.

“I gave them a musical instrument and they created a song, the tune and words for the presentation for the parents at the end. The parents got to try all the stuff we made and that too was magic.

“It was a real multi-level, rich program. We had a reunion a month later and nobody wanted to go home.”

The groups are kept small, to

“All the kids get really good care and attention,” said Willow.

The camp is also looking for interested volunteers. High school students with a clear police check can get community hours. There is a safety and first aid training pro-

gram for volunteers and counsellors.

The camp runs each week in July and registration is open until June 11. The cost is $249 per week and includes all snacks and meals.

There is also before and after care available for $3 an hour.

“All they have to do is bring a water bottle, so it’s pretty comparable to other camps,” said Willow.

“The benefit will be that they’ll actually be able to slow down, relax and discover things about themselves and nature that they maybe have never known before.”

Site visits are encouraged for families considering the camp.

West Carleton students learn water rescue techniques Local firefighters give hands-on instruction Jessica Cunha

jessica.cunha@metroland.com

Students in the fire foundations course at West Carleton Secondary School had the opportunity to try their hand at water rescue on May 26.

The class of about 26 students attempted bag toss rescues, rope and shore based rescues, as well as rescues from a fortuna boat under instruction from local firefighters.

“You learn how hard it actually is,” said Grade 12 student Darian Gethings.

“It’s one of the best courses.”

The school has been partnering with the local fire sta-

medic visits.

Course organizer Dan Zuro said it’s a good fit for students living in rural areas.

Fire training course an ‘eye-opener’ Continued from page 16

“Given that we’re so close to the volunteer firefighters around here, I thought it would be a good idea,” Zuro said.

“It’s not about training future firefighters, it’s about imparting practical skills,” such as fire safety and prevention, and how to respond if faced with an emergency.

A number of students from the course have gone on to become volunteer firefighters.

Current Grade 12 student Keegan Charbonneau said the class intrigued him when he learned about it last year.

His father, Martin, is a firefighter in Richmond and Keegan has been accepted to the Fleming College fire-

fighter program.

“It’s really fun, really eye-opening,” he said, adding he recommends the course to other students.

“It’s a great experience, a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. You won’t necessarily get the chance to do this again.”

Station 66 firefighter David McCalden said the volunteer firefighters who take part all want to be there – often taking time off from their full-time jobs in order to interact with the students.

“It’s a way to give back to the community,” he said, adding the course helps with promoting fire services and prevention.

“It makes people more respectful and better equipped to deal with situations.”

AGM hears 453 orders filled in 2015, up from 406 in previous year The number of people using the West Carleton Food Access Centre is growing.

The centre filled 453 orders for 105 households in 2015.

The previous year saw 406 orders for 90 households, said Marilyn Hillier at the centre’s annual general meeting on May 25.

“We had 77 households use our services six times or less and 30 of those households used our services only once,” she said.

Twenty-eight clients accessed the centre seven or more times, with four of those using the service every month in 2014.

“November of 2015 we saw a total number of 51 orders filled,” she said. “This was the highest orders filled in a month since the statistics have been recorded.”

The average number of orders per month is in the 38 to 40 range.

That record has since been broken, as 56 orders were requested in March 2016, she said. February and April 2016 also saw 51 orders filled.

When asked why she felt the numbers keep climbing, Hiller said it’s likely due to a number of reasons.

The new central location of the West Carleton Food Access Centre, at the West Carleton Community Complex in Kinburn, as well as an increased presence in the community and the shifting economy all contribute, she said.

“It’s more anonymous at the new location,” said Hillier, adding many clients have said high hydro bills are causing them to choose between keep-

Although the demand for service is up, the access centre is operating in the black thanks to sponsorships, donations and fundraising events.

“We’re pretty on-par with our expenditures,” said Marilyn Roberts.

She added there’s always a dip in donations throughout the year – the lowest month in 2015 was August with only $345 coming in – but it picks up in December.

Some of the most difficult messages to get across are that there is no big-box grocery store with donation bins in West Carleton, and the food access centre is not a part of the Ottawa Food Bank, said Sharon Roper, co-chair of the centre.

She added that all donations made in West Carleton to the food access centre stay in the area.

The centre launched a num-

ber of new fundraisers last year that proved popular and maintained others including having a permanent information booth at the Carp Farmers’ Market and Carp Fair, the Load the Wagon event, a Christmas Craft Fair, annual book sale, and partnering with the Shinny with the Big Boys event.

As well, the Greensmere Golf and Country Club recently held a fundraiser, as did Great West Life in Kanata.

Two local youth also collected donations for the food cupboard instead of gifts at their birthday parties.

The food access centre said it couldn’t do its work without the help of the many volunteers who offer their service and thanked them for their hard work.

Deep Roots Food Hub on the hunt for root cellar location Community-owned root cellar will help West Carleton farmers extend season, offer produce at lower costs Jessica Cunha

jessica.cunha@metroland.com

The Deep Roots Food Hub is looking for a root cellar location in central West Carleton.

Originally called the West Carleton Healthy Food Coalition, which was awarded a $125,000 grant from the Community Foundation of Ottawa last December, the group changed its name to better reflect its purpose.

The goal is to build a community-owned root cellar, said Judi Varga-Toth, which will help farmers extend their season and offer access to local produce year-round.

“It’s about giving a boost to the local food economy,” she said during the West Carleton Food Access Centre’s annual general meeting on May 25.

Many smaller farmers

in the area don’t have the space to store their produce over the winter and spring months before the harvest begins, she said, and a community root cellar would help solve that problem. It will also help to make local produce available at a lower cost.

The project was originally in discussion with the Diefenbunker to host the root cellar on its grounds, but that’s since been taken off the table. Due to the Cold War museum being a heritage building, a root cellar can’t be dug on its grounds, said Varga-Toth.

“If anyone has any ideas (of where a root cellar could go), please let us know,” she said, adding a central area of West Carleton would be preferable to make access easier for everyone.

The group, which is cur-

rent composed of 12 volunteers, will also offer gardening workshops and cooking classes to help teach “lost skills” to the younger generation, said Varga-Toth.

Anyone who would like to volunteer to teach is welcome.

“We’re open to anybody who would like to join us,” she said.

The Deep Roots Food Hub is partnered with the Western Ottawa Community Resource Centre and the Good Food Box program and it hopes to partner with more food-based organizations in West Carleton.

Visually impaired cyclist rides tandem for a cure through Carp Cycle for Sight ambassador, Nicole Hill, will join more than 80 cyclists – including visually impaired and blind cyclists riding tandem with sighted pilots – as they make their way this Sunday, June 5 through “gorgeous backcountry” from the Carp Fairgrounds.

When asked about why she rides, Hill says that “participating in the Cycle for Sight has been a very rewarding experience. It has, literally, ‘opened my eyes’ to the wide variety of people, both young and old, who share my struggle with vision loss on a daily basis.”

By riding in this event Hill hopes that she can help the Foundation Fighting Blindness move closer to its goal

of finding a cure for vision loss, while at the same time serving as an example of what people can achieve regardless of the disability that touches their lives.

Thanks to cyclists like Hill, over the past decade more than $1.9 million in research funding has been invested in Ottawa by the Foundation Fighting Blindness.

This year, Cycle for Sight will make its way to four Canadian cities, contributing to over $3 million already raised by Cycle for Sight riders.

In 2016, the Foundation Fighting Blindness committed to funding 19 new and ongoing research studies. This research is bring-

ing hope to over one million Canadians living with vision loss.

The Ottawa area ride begins and ends at the Carp Fairgrounds. Cyclists depart at 8:30 a.m. and are invited to take part in a Finish Line Celebration at noon.

They have a choice to ride 30, 52 or 90 kilometres.

There will also be Cycle for Sight rides on the West Coast June 4, Toronto-Town of Blue Mountains June 18 and Alberta Sept. 10.

Register as a cyclist or volunteer to support vision research. For more information, visit cycleforsight.ca or call 1-800-461-3331, ext. 233.

Cycle for Sight is quickly becoming Canada’s premiere cycling fundraiser.

Radiothon donors provide boost for Bruyere care Thanks to dedicated 580 CFRA listeners, CTV Ottawa viewers and a generous community, the one-day Bruyère Life Changing Radiothon raised $165,492 May 26 in support of patient care and research.

Present and former Bruyère patients and their families shared personal stories about the care received while at Bruyère Continuing Care.

Physicians, staff and Bruyère Research Institute investigators shared expert advice on Alzheimer’s disease, stroke,

falls prevention, the importance of health care data, care of the elderly and life at the new Bruyère Village.

“We are excited to focus on supporting the incredible lifechanging care and research offered at Bruyère and Bruyère Research Institute, specifically around brain health, integrated seniors’ health, and complex, chronic conditions and rehabilitation,” said Bruyère Foundation president, Peggy Taillon. “On behalf of the future patients Bruyère will care for – thank you to everyone

who made a donation.”

Support for Life Changing Radiothon began live on 580 CFRA at 6 a.m. last Thursday and continued throughout the day. The Radiothon wrapped up with a live report from St. Laurent on the CTV Ottawa Evening News.

Bruyère Continuing Care provides patient-centred and evidence-based health care services for vulnerable and medically complex patients, with a focus on people who require sub-acute, geriatric, rehabilitative and palliative care.

Becoming a hero for CHEO as easy as picking up the phone CHEO Telethon will be broadcast live on CTV from EY Centre June 4-5 Erin McCracken

erin.mccracken@metroland.com

A simple phone call can make a huge difference.

Organizers of the CHEO Telethon are preparing for the 33rd annual 24hour event June 4 and 5, the CHEO Foundation’s largest fundraiser in support of the regional children’s hospital, which provides care to children from across eastern Ontario, western Quebec and from as far away as Nunavut.

Last year it raised a record-breaking $7.94 million, up from $7.1 million in 2014.

“It really shows that the community doesn’t want the hospital to go anywhere,” said Jacqueline Belsito, vice-president of philanthropy and community engagement at the CHEO Foundation. “They really secure the future by participating.”

Televised on CTV, the live broadcast launches on June 4 at 7 p.m. and will feature poignant interviews with

current and former patients and their families, as well as some of CHEO’s medical team.

They will reveal “the real breadth and depth that’s going on here,” Belsito said. “It’s not just an emergency department.”

More than 70,000 infants, children and youth come through the hospital’s ER doors every year, but there is so much more that’s offered in terms of long-term and complex care, she explained.

Allison Franceschina, a nurse and manager of CHEO’s neonatal intensive care unit, the neonatal transport team, follow-up clinic and clinical care respiratory therapy, will appear on the upcoming show.

She will help tell the story of a new isolette deck being donated for the transport unit, which is a mini intensive care unit on wheels.

It has a ventilator, suction machine, respiratory support, a full monitoring system and lighting and will improve care for the team’s youngest and smallest patients that the team responds to throughout eastern and northern Ontario.

The purchase of such expensive equipment is largely thanks to the community’s support.

“We have to find equipment that

sidered a big-ticket item, but means patients don’t have to be moved to the x-ray department for a scan.

That’s why superheroes are again needed this year. This year’s theme for the fundraiser echoes that of previous years: “Be a SuperHERO for CHEO.” To generate excitement and enthusiasm ahead of the 24-hour show, June 3 will be proclaimed “Be a SuperHERO for CHEO Day” in Ottawa. Everyone is encouraged to dress as their favourite superhero.

The 2015 CHEO Telethon generated a record-setting $7.94 million.

This year, organizers are hoping the 33rd annual CHEO Telethon will once again touch the hearts of people everywhere when the 24-hour show takes to the airwaves on CTV June 4 and 5. fits a 23-week pre-term gestation baby up to a child that’s 18 years of age, ” said Franceschina.

She took part in last year’s telethon, answering phones with some of the 1,000 volunteers who made the event a success.

“It was so nice to talk with donors and actually thank them verbally and express how much gratitude and appreciation we have for them taking the time to acknowledge the work that we do for our patients,” she said.

Six patients will be the stars of the

show as they share their experiences at CHEO, including a teen diagnosed with a severe brain injury and a baby diagnosed with cancer while still in the womb. “There’s some real miracles,” said Belsito.

Money raised this year during the telethon will go toward research, staff training and toys, games and crafts for patients, as well as medical equipment. CHEO is looking to buy another digital mobile x-ray unit that can be wheeled right to a patient’s bedside. Priced at $220,000, it’s con-

Popular rodeo clown to return for stampede As well as having many topnotch rodeo competitors returning for this year’s second annual Arnprior Stampede, one of the most popular entertainers from last year is also coming back.

And he is bringing his father with him.

Rodeo Clown Brinson James will be back when the Arnprior Agricultural Society hosts another professional rodeo in Arnprior June 11-12. With his antics last year, James quickly became an adopted son of Arnprior.

Stampede organizer Glen Howard reports he received countless emails and had people stopping him around town asking that Jams return if the society brings in the stampede again.

“Well he is back and bringing with him a very special rodeo clown called Hollywood Harris, who is Brinson’s father,” says Howard.

“Arnprior will be treated to best rodeo clown show in North America today.”

Arnprior Stampede weekend actually begins Friday, June 10 with up to 500 local students taking advantage of a rodeo education event from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m. They will get an informative and entertaining look at the world of rodeo from those involved.

The stampede kick-off party runs from 7:30 p.m. to 1 a.m. with a ‘dirt dance’ featuring the one of the area’s top party bands, Roadhouse.

bers, attracts players of all ages from around the West Carleton and Arnprior areas.

Paul and Millie Pacella, of Arnprior, are two of the newest members to sign up. Having moved to the area two years ago, the couple decided to give lawn bowling a try.

“It’s an activity to do and a way to meet new people,” said Millie.

“It’s also a way to be active in the community,” added Paul.

The two looked like naturals on the green.

“Anybody who takes up this sport always says ‘I wish I’d taken this up 10 years ago,’” said Pat Rose, who’s been playing herself for 12 years.

Rose began playing after a suggestion from a fellow (indoor) carpet bowler and she was immediately hooked.

“Someone suggested playing outside,” she said.

“It’s the fresh air and the nice people who play.

“We live for bowling – it’s addictive.”

The sport is open to all ages and abilities. With organized games at least five times a week, and

organized tournaments throughout the season, there’s something for everyone, said Rose.

Club president Rob Jennings took up the sport two years ago after playing carpet bowling indoors. The outdoor play sold him on lawn bowling.

“It’s relaxing and the game has a lot of different dimensions to it,” said Jennings, who lives in White Lake. “It’s a friendly club. It’s for all ages – it’s something you can do all your life.”

New members are always welcome to try the sport and no experience is necessary. The club has an active recreational and competitive program, as well as social activities throughout the season.

The Galetta Lawn Bowling Club is located at 119 Darwin St. and offers organized games Mondays and Fridays from 10 a.m. to noon, and Tuesdays, Wednesdays and Thursdays beginning at 6 p.m., as well as some weekend plays. Tournaments are organized throughout the summer for competitive players.

Hydro ombudsman to attend Kinburn meeting If the number of complaints about hydro bills coming from West Carleton is any indication, a meeting June 10 should be a lively affair.

Ward 5 Councillor Eli El-Chantiry has arranged to have the newly-appointed Hydro One ombudsman, Fiona Crean, attended a public meeting in Kinburn.

Creak has agreed to hear concerns and answer questions from residents at the session that will run from 5 to 7:30 p.m. at the Kinburn Community Centre.

El-Chantiry is urging all residents who have questions about their hydro bills or have concerns about hydro policy to attend the meeting.

MP’s town hall seeks input on defence Kanata-Carleton MP Karen McCrimmon is seeking public input on three key issues when she holds the second in a series of town hall meeting in the riding this Sunday, June 5.

The public input session will run from 6 to 8 p.m. at the Kanata Legion.

It will be preceded by a barbecue starting at 5 p.m. to raise funds for fire victims in Fort McMurray.

McCrimmon has been asking for input on line on a variety of topics, including what sort

of changes the federal government should embrace when it comes to the environment, what should be included in its review of Canada’s defence policies and what stand should it take when it comes to proposed Canada Post changes (should doorto-door delivery be saved or phased out?).

The MP would like input on all three topics at Sunday’s session.

Her first major town hall session focused on electoral reform.

The Kanata Legion is located at 70 Hines Rd.

Public Meetings All public meetings will be held at Ottawa City Hall, 110 Laurier Avenue West, unless otherwise noted.

Dry, hot weather prompts drought concerns Staff

The recent hot dry weather has raised concerns about possible drought conditions this summer.

The Mississippi Valley Conservation Authority (MVCA) reports that there have been well below average flows in the watershed in the past two months. The flows are less than 40 per cent of normal in

the rivers and streams in the Mississippi Valley watershed for this time of year.

Most of the upper lakes in the watershed are at or slightly above their summer target levels, but evaporation could also become a “significant concern” for those areas if current conditions persist, warns the MVCA. Despite some rainfall on the weekend, it is expected to

have only a minimal impact on existing conditions.

A significant rainfall over a large portion of the watershed will be required to return the watershed to normal conditions.

The MVCA is strong urging residents outside the City of Ottawa’s water system to reduce their consumption of potable water. Using rain barrels to capture any rain to

water lawns and gardens, and avoiding using pressure washers to clean houses, driveways, decks and fences all contribute to the conservation of our water resources, it notes.

For more water conservation tips, visit www.mvc. on.ca.

Daily water levels and flows are available on the MVCA website at mvc.on.ca/waterlevels/.

Each week, a lawyer from the Kanata based Allan Snelling law firm will answer a reader’s question.

A A weekly weekly guide guide in in legal legal matters matters

If you have a general legal question that you would like to have addressed send it via email to Legalmatters@compellingcounsel.com

“I recently learned that my elderly Aunt is a victim of Fraud. The police have advised me that some victims of the fraud are considering a lawsuit and that someone may wish to speak to a lawyer on my Aunt’s behalf. My Aunt suffers from dementia and I hold Power of Attorney. Can my Aunt participate in a lawsuit?”

Special rules apply to lawsuits involving people, like your aunt, who suffer from a mental illness and therefore lack capacity at law.

Generally, children under the age of 18 and people who suffer from mental illness, including those who suffer from dementia, must be represented by a litigation guardian within legal proceedings. There are also special rules which apply to how limitation periods apply to persons who lack capacity at law.

Litigation Guardians assume responsibility for litigation on behalf of a litigant who lacks capacity. Litigation Guardians serve an important role and are saddled with significant responsibilities. They assume the responsibilities of retaining and instructing lawyers on behalf of the incapable litigant,

His primary areas of expertise are business disputes, personal injury and insurance matters.

and litigation guardians assume personal responsibility for any costs liability incurred as a result of a lawsuit.

However the litigation guardian plays an essential role in ensuring access to justice for some of society’s most vulnerable people. Without people agreeing to stand as a Litigation Guardian, people who suffer losses could be left without recourse to the courts.

Generally a lawyer works very closely with a litigation guardian to ensure that risks are properly understood. Lawyers also put in place measures to ensure the risk of personal exposure to the guardian is minimized.

If you are asked to stand as a litigation guardian you should consult with a lawyer before deciding whether or not to stand.

As a community as a whole, our hearts go out to our neighbours in Greely that lost their home and beloved pets in a devastating house fire earlier this week. It is so important that we also take the time to recognize and thank the volunteer firefighters that dropped everything and put themselves in the way of danger to fight such a destructive fire to protect neighbouring homes and ensure no bystanders were hurt. Words are not enough to express our thanks and gratitude for your efforts.

Last weekend the Ottawa Champions Baseball team welcomed our very own Greely Little League team to a game this past weekend. The team was thrilled to be a part of an exciting day of baseball with the professionals. It’s great to have a rural presence at the Champions game, and to see great players supporting little leaguers that can be possible future pros.

Wicked Garage in Greely held its 5th Annual Open House with 400 cars on display up and down the road, and over a thousand people taking it all in. This year, their bbq donations went towards StuStrong for Stuntman Stu and the fight against cancer. What a great way to spend a Sunday afternoon! Same place, same time next year in the Greely Industrial Park.

Young at Art Awards ceremony is where young artists between 12 and 19 years of age are recognized for their artistic abilities through public exhibitions and awards. The program presents a great opportunity for young artists to be evaluated by a jury then showcased throughout the city at local galleries.

Last year there were submissions from 300 young artists from 50 area schools. Osgoode Ward was well represented with two young artists.

What a good experience it was to play an active role in something as big as the Bruyere Foundation Radiothon! Bruyere is known for their expertise in Brain Health, Memory Programs, Palliative Care, Stroke and Geriatric Rehabilitation, Family Health and the groundbreaking research they do throughout all these fields. They play such a vital role in our society to make a difference in health care. Generous donations are what make it possible for Bruyere to carry on with the great work they do.

Thank you for caring by making your donation.

He joined the Army at the age of 17 as a “Boy Soldier” as part of the Canadian Technical Training Corps (CTTC). This program allowed underage recruits who wanted to do their part for their country to complete military training in preparation for active duty at the age of 18. He was a charter member of the Westboro Legion Branch 480 and a member of the Arnprior Legion Branch 174. Family and friends are invited to pay their respects at the Pilon Family Funeral Home and Chapel Ltd., 50 John Street North, Arnprior on Monday June 6th from 4 to 6 p.m. A Legion Tribute will be conducted at 6 o’clock.

Estabrooks - Elsie Aileen Ellorient Vane (née Rogers) The family is saddened to announce Elsie’s passing at Extendicare Starwood Home, Ottawa, on Thursday, May 26, 2016 at the age of 85.

Predeceased by her husband of 43 years, W. Russell Estabrooks and her brother David Rogers. Lovingly remembered by her children Bill (Barb), John (Judy), Mary O’Loughlin (John), David (Loretta); her grandchildren Jason (Andrea), Jen, Laura (Mat), Kim (Derek), Chris; and great grandchildren Samantha, Cameron, Alex, Ryleigh, Eli, Sawyer and Savannah. Will also be missed by her brother Lee (Sue) and sister-in-law Helen. Elsie had a long career with Sears and Eaton’s in Clinton, Ont and Ottawa.

She also had a second career as an Armed Forces wife and when you are an Armed Forces wife you might as well be enlisted. She understood every element of the armed forces including their values, protocols and ranking system.

During her time as part of the armed forces, she lived in St. Margaret’s, N.B., Clinton, Ontario (twice), Metz, France, and Carp, Ontario where she retired as an Armed Forces wife. She was an accomplished seamstress, knitter, crocheter and quilter. Over the years, she was active in the Richmond Legion and St. Paul’s United Church - meaningful parts of her life. Most recently she had been wrestling with Alzheimer’s and fought it bravely to the end. Her children wish to express special thanks to staff at Extendicare Starwood, Ottawa and Richmond Care Home, Richmond, who all contributed to making her final years peaceful and full of dignity.

Private interment in Fielding, N.B. at a later date. For those wishing to do so, a donation to Extendicare Starwood or Richmond Care Home would be appreciated by the family. Tributes, donations or condolences may be made at www.tubmanfuneralhomes.com CLR686699

Realtors work together to improve services offered sellers, buyers Once a month a busy group of Arnprior area realtors gather for breakfast to share listing information, network and preview each other’s listings.

With the ups-and-downs of an active real estate market, the brainstorming sessions keep this group of professionals well-informed of trends in the marketplace.

Although the members act as independent contractors under the management of many different brokerages, the group knows all too well the benefits of working together in an industry that is stressful and competitive.

The ‘Realtor Breakfast Club’ and ‘house tour’ provides realtors with up-to-date information that helps them analyze CHARLOTTE LEITCH/SUBMITTED active and sold listings.

Previewing listings gives realOnce a month a busy group of local realtors gather for breakfast to share listing tors critical knowledge to help information, network and preview each other’s listings.

price homes for their seller and buyer clients. With many years of experience, the realtors have been in thousands of homes.

Modern technology offers the buyer access to more photos, virtual tours and tools to help in their decision to buy a home, but very few houses are sold without the buyer actually seeing the house first, which makes the services of a realtor invaluable. The National Association of Realtors (NAR) states that 87 per cent of all buyers used the services of a realtor when buying and 89 per cent when selling their home.

This local group of realtors cover a broad geographical area from Greater Madawaska and beyond through to the City of Ottawa and all parts in between. All brokers and salespersons are required to complete educational courses prior

to becoming registered and are also required to take continuing education courses.

Selling a home involves more than viewing it and submitting an offer. Professional realtors help their clients determine market value and aid in making sure that problems are solved long before the closing date.

The Arnprior Realtors Breakfast Club started about 10 years ago. Sellers are delighted when 10 to 20 agents preview their home. Often after a tour, an agent will be able to match a buyer directly to a house that was viewed on the tour.

If you are considering selling or purchasing a home, the realtors club encourages you to “choose a local agent” who will work hard with knowledge of the local market and the support of this group of hardworking realtors.

West Carleton Review - Thursday, June 2, 2016 45

Public quizzed on Ottawa Central Library location An online questionnaire is now available for the public to help shape the criteria that will be used to evaluate potential locations for the new

flagship Ottawa Central Library.

The public has until Thursday, June 9 (midnight) to complete the questionnaire online

Clint Pettigrew Sales Representative

Direct: 613-614-4740 clintpettigrew@royallepage.ca

at www.OttawaCentralLibrary.ca. The questionnaire may also be completed using public access computers available at any of the Ottawa Public Library’s 33 branches, including those in West Carleton.

The questionnaire is an opportunity for the public to rate a list of location factors that was developed with community input, technical expertise and best practice research.

This is the public’s oppor-

tunity to identify what is important to them in selecting a site for this city-building initiative.

The Ottawa Public Library (OPL) Board will be asked to approve the evaluation criteria and weighting at the July 12 meeting.

In a concurrent process, the OPL, working with the City of Ottawa, launched a call-out to identify publicly- and privately-owned sites within the city’s Central Area that could be suit-

able for the Ottawa Central Library. The sites identified through the call-out, which closed on May 20, will be compiled in a site inventory that will be made public after the site criteria are approved.

The sites in the inventory will be evaluated and analyzed against the boardapproved criteria. This will result in a short-listing of potential sites, which will undergo financial analysis and due diligence.

The OPL Board will make a decision before the end of the year regarding the financial framework, potential partnership with Library and Archives Canada (LAC), a project delivery method, and location. The OPL Board will recommend a best approach to Ottawa City Council.

Ground-breaking for the Ottawa Central Library is expected in the spring of 2018 with official opening of a new iconic library in 2020.

The main branch of the Ottawa Public Library in the downtown core will be shutdown for the day on Saturday, June 11, to allow for electrical

Algonquin College unveils new senior care innovation centre Megan DeLaire

mdelaire@metroland.com

Canada experienced a population surge in the 20 years following the Second World War, and it is facing another demographic boom as the babies of 1946 become the seniors of 2016.

With Ontario’s population of two million people over age 65 expected to double over the next 20 years, that demographic is driving critical dialogue around senior care in the province.

Moved to action by that dialogue, Algonquin College officially unveiled its new

Garbarino Girard Centre for Innovation in Seniors Care at a May 25 event at the school’s Woodroffe campus.

“The need for a new approach to health and wellness is clear, and this new approach means that we must transform the way we train and prepare the next generation of health and wellness workers,” said Algonquin College president Cheryl Jensen.

“So we need to think differently, we need to be innovative.”

The centre is the product of an ongoing collaboration between the college, the

Champlain Local Health Integration Network, Bruyére Research Institute, the Western Ottawa Community Resource Centre and Carleton University.

Nicknamed the “smart apartment” by those partners, it serves as a learning lab for Algonquin College students in various nursing and community studies programs, an applied research facility for Bruyére Research Institute, and a space where the Western Ottawa Community Resource Centre can host a day program for seniors with dementia.

It represents an approach

to senior care that sees seniors increasingly served within their communities and homes, rather than in hospitals and long-term care facilities.

Students have worked with resource centre staff to care for 30 seniors each week since the centre first opened in February with help from a $365,000 contribution by the Champlain LHIN, but an additional $1 million donation by the estate of the centre’s namesake, Anita Garbarino Girard, will help outfit it with ground-breaking technological features. That donation is what prompted

the May launch of the centre and the announcement of its official name.

The open concept space in the college’s A-building was built to allow retrofitting as more funding for monitoring technology becomes available.

Eventually, the centre will be outfitted with motion sensors that can track the speed and steadiness of patients’ strides, and floor sensors that can recognize a fall or monitor the ease or difficulty with which patients climb in and out of bed.

Designed to have the feel of an apartment, the centre

features a laundry room with accessible shelving for clients in wheelchairs, a kitchen with an accessible stove and sink, a sitting room with an activities area, seniorfriendly seating and a herb garden, and a bedroom with a mechanical ceiling lift.

“I honestly can’t think of a better example to illustrate how we can do better for the people we serve,” said Champlain LHIN CDEO Chantale LeClerc said. “But also for the future generation of healthcare workers that are going to be asked to deliver services in a different way.”

Plan ahead to ‘Shred-It’ in July Liz Wall

Seniors at Home

Arnprior-Braeside-McNab Seniors at Home will be hosting its second Shred-It Day Arnprior on Saturday, July 23.

The agency wants to help you plan ahead and get rid of any paper items that are taking up space and no longer required.

How can ABMSH help? By offering a volunteer to assist you in the sorting and filing of your paper items.

Over the years, we all collect and file

away plenty of important papers, cards, magazines, etc. But now it is time to declutter and the staff and volunteers of ABMSH can help you, at no cost, to plan ahead, sort through these types of items, and decide which are outdated and which can be shredded.

The only cost will be the $8 per Banker-style box, which will be shredded by the professionals, Shred-It from Ottawa on July 23 at ABMSH’s office, 106 McGonigal St. West.

If you would like our help, you are encouraged to contact Liz Wall, develop-

ment co-ordinator, at 613-623-7981, to make the necessary arrangements. All volunteers are registered with ABMSH and have obtained the necessary criminal check by the local police department.

The event is open to local businesses as well. To help you create the right retention schedule for your business you are encouraged to visit www.shredit. com.

Along with paper items, Shred-It also accepts file folders and floppy disks and don’t worry about staples or paperclips with your paper files.

Public meeting with the Hydro One Ombudsman On Friday, June 10 join me as I host the newly appointed Hydro One Ombudsman Fiona Crean at a public meeting for West Carleton-March residents. She will be our special guest for the evening and will be answering questions from residents and addressing their concerns. The meeting is taking place at the Kinburn Community Centre (3045 Kinburn Side Rd) from 5:00-7:30pm.

Spring Giveaway Weekend The City’s spring Giveaway Weekend, on June 11 and 12, is the perfect time to find a new home for gently-used unwanted items, or to hunt for new treasures. Residents participate by placing items they no longer want at the curb.

Items could include clothes, furniture, sports equipment, books, CDs and much more. Stickers or signs should be placed on the items with the word “FREE”. Please consider safety when deciding which items to set out to the curb – used children’s items such as baby walkers, cribs, car seats, strollers, playpens, bath seats, mattresses, blinds, toys and other child-related items should not be placed at the curb. Once you’ve put your giveaway items curbside, it’s then your turn to scour the neighbourhood to discover your own treasures.

Crossing your fingers made things right when telling a lie Mother put her hand on my shoulder and looked me square in the eye. I was about to head out to school, and I knew exactly what she was going to say, so I put my hands behind my back and crossed my fingers. I had it on good authority that if you were about to tell a lie, crossing your fingers made things right.

“Now don’t you and Velma go walking in those ditches of water on the way home from school. It’s still too cold, and you’ll come with a death of the cold, and we’ll have to call Mrs. Beam and you know what that means: the onion treatment.”

With my fingers knitted behind my back, I assured her we would stay clear of the ditches, knowing full well that Velma and I, once we got rid of our brothers and sisters, would do what we did just about every day coming home from the Northcote School.

The ditches still had water from the spring run-off, and heavy rains for several days made them look like little streams, and were too inviting to be ignored.

Mary Cook’s Memories MARY COOK

As soon as the coast was clear, Velma and I headed behind a cluster of cedars, peeled off our shoes and stockings, crammed them into our book bags, and tucked our skirts into the elastic legs of our navy blue fleece lined bloomers.

Making sure no one was on the Northcote Side Road, we squealed with sheer joy as our bare feet hit the water. The grass underfoot was like silk, and, of course, there was never any garbage thrown in the ditches back then, and we sloshed along at our heart’s content, heading from the side road from the school, almost to where our lanes began.

Not once did I think of Mother’s words, as I left for school in the

morning. After all, I had my fingers crossed.

By the time we reached our long lane, we had run out of water in the ditches, and we reluctantly had to abandon what we considered the utmost joy, walking barefoot in the water-filled ditches of the Northcote Side Road.

Our book bags hung from our shoulders, and we reluctantly left the ditches as we neared our lane, which was just before the Thom’s, gingerly stepping onto the dirt road and heading for the cluster of cedars behind the rail fence.

We sat on the big rock and let the sun dry our legs, which were now the colour of beets freshly pulled from the garden, and still dripping

wet from the water in the ditches.

Our legs had to be dried completely before we could put on our long stockings and shoes. And Velma and I laughed and delighted in the conspiracy of the whole escapade. Knowing perfectly well, as long as the ditches held the water, we would repeat our adventure.

We couldn’t spend too much time getting back into our stockings and shoes, or our mothers would be suspicious when we didn’t arrive home when they expected us.

After all, it was only three-anda-half miles between the Northcote School and our farms, and so we had to be quick about it.

I tore down our long lane like someone possessed, and the last I saw of Velma, she was already at their mailbox. I wasn’t that far behind my sister and brothers, tearing into the house out of breath, and heading right upstairs as I always did to get out of my school clothes, passing Mother who was busy at the Findlay Oval getting supper ready for the table.

I kept my fingers crossed as usual, just in case she questioned me

about walking in the water-filled ditches.

My stockings were damp, so I draped them over the chair near my bed, tucked my not too dry shoes under the washstand, and headed downstairs in my play clothes.

“I bet you and Velma walked the ditches on your way home,” my hateful brother Emerson said at the supper table. I dropped my fork, put my hands behind my back with my fingers crossed, and denied it vehemently. Mother was too busy filling our plates to take notice, as I shot daggers at Emerson.

My beloved sister Audrey vowed she saw Velma and me walking on the Northcote Side Road all the way home from school, and we were nowhere near the ditches. She had her hands behind her back, and I knew, without a doubt, her fingers were crossed.

Onions, peas add flavour to spring potato salad Scandinavians love their potatoes and adding fresh seasonal green onions, peas and dill give it a lighter taste.

Serve in lettuce lined bowls, if desired.

Preparation time: 15 minutes Cooking time: 10 minutes Serves: 8 Ingredients • 1-1/2 lb (750 g) potatoes, peeled (if desired), cut into chunks • 1 lb (500 g) fresh peas • 2 tbsp (25 mL) white wine vinegar • 3 tbsp (45 mL) olive oil • 1/2 tsp (2 mL) grainy Dijon mustard • 1/4 tsp (1 mL) salt • 1/2 cup (125 mL) thinly sliced green onions • 2 tbsp (25 mL) chopped fresh dill Preparation instructions

Place potatoes in medium saucepan. Cover with cold water and bring to boil. Cover, reduce heat and simmer until fork tender, 15 to 20 minutes.

During last minute of cooking, add peas. Drain well. Place in large bowl; stir in 1 tbsp (15 mL) of the vinegar. Cool completely.

Meanwhile in small bowl, whisk remaining vinegar with oil, mustard and salt until

blended. Toss potatoes with dressing, onions and dill. Taste and drizzle with a bit more vinegar if needed.

‘More Syrup Please’: Andre Pilon generously donated his homemade syrup for the pancake fundraiser. With him, from left, are Island View life enrichment co-ordinator Eden Boytel and in-town driver Nancy Peck.

How Suite it is for pancake lovers An innovative pancake fundraiser sponsored and hosted recently by the “good folks” at Island View Retirement Suites was a huge success.

So reports Arnprior-Braeside-McNab Seniors at Home, the beneficiary of the event.

Island View served free pancakes April 13, with each one eaten translating into $1

donated to the Seniors at Home.

Thanks to the tastiness of the pancakes and the appetites of those taking part, at least 500 pancakes were consumed.

As well a goodwill jar was made available and $355 was raised by the generous and appreciative pancake-lovers.

In all, Seniors at Home received $855 in the fundraiser.

OC Transpo could explore the feasibility of an affordable bus pass this year, as a result of a report by the city's youth engagement committee.

Committee hears youth action plan for 2016 Working group identifies transportation, access to recreation as key themes Jennifer McIntosh

OC Transpo could explore the feasibility of an affordable bus pass this year, as a result of a report by the city's youth engagement committee.

The report was released to the community and protective services committee on May 19 and laid the groundwork for a two-year youth action plan for 20162018.

The engagement committee is is a working group made up of 13 youth aged 16 to 24 from across the city. It was formed in 2013, following a youth summit held by Mayor Jim Watson and Rideau-Vanier Coun.

Mathieu Fleury.

Fleury said the city addressed the initial imbalance of the committee to ensure that members represented all parts of the city.

To update the action plan, the committee surveyed 253 youth and came up with four themes: • Communication: More two-way engagement between the city and youth.

• Relationships: Connecting youth with their city councillors, community police officers and youth organizations.

• Affordable recreation and transportation: Improving available information about recreation programs and affordable access to transit.

• Environment: Increasing opportunities to recycle and compost.

The report also recommended ensuring the participation and recognition of young people as part of the 2017 Canada 150 celebrations. The working group suggested a project that would profile 150 community contributors over 150 days using social media as part of the 2017 celebrations.

To help with issues around transit and recreation affordability, one of the suggestions was for the engagement committee to work with organizers of youth-specific events to include the cost of transit as part of ticket prices.

Other suggestions include raising the age limit for student bus passes from 19 to 24 and a pilot project to allow youth volunteers to participate in free or reduced fee recreation programming.

The report was carried by the community and protective services committee and will now be heard by city council.

This week’s puzzle answers in next week’s issue

Here’s How It Works: Sudoku puzzles are formatted as a 9x9 grid, broken down into nine 3x3 boxes. To solve a sudoku, the numbers 1 through 9 must fill each row, column and box. Each number can appear only once in each row, column and box. You can figure out the order in which the numbers will appear by using the numeric clues already provided in the boxes. The more numbers you name, the easier it gets to solve the puzzle!

ARIES – Mar 21/Apr 20 Aries, you may desire to be somewhere else this week, but responsibilities keep you close to home. You can still have a good time and make lasting memories.

TAURUS – Apr 21/May 21 Taurus, you initially felt good about choices you just made a few days ago, but now you’re not so sure. Ask around for advice before making any final decision.

GEMINI – May 22/Jun 21 Lately you are more willing to take risks, Gemini. It’s fine to want to try new things, but always let reason guide you. You do not want to bite off more than you can chew.

CANCER – Jun 22/Jul 22 Cancer, the solution to a lingering problem is on the horizon, and you will get some closure. This week you will push past it all and finally move on.

LEO – Jul 23/Aug 23 Leo, realizing your dreams is fully within your capabilities. Make a commitment now and stick with it. You have to work hard to get what you desire, but it’s within reach.

VIRGO – Aug 24/Sept 22 Virgo, after running the show, it’s now time to hand over the reins to someone else. Surrender some control and enjoy this respite from being the go-to guy or gal.

LIBRA – Sept 23/Oct 23 Libra, your energy is focused on too many things at the moment. Focus your attention on just one thing for the time being, and your main goal will be realized.

SCORPIO – Oct 24/Nov 22 Scorpio, you may not be up to too many trivial tasks right now, so immerse yourself in a creative project that’s more about the big picture than the small details.

SAGITTARIUS – Nov 23/Dec 21 Sagittarius, you may have reached a turning point in a romantic relationship. Now is the time to fan those flames so that the relationship can grow into something special.

CAPRICORN – Dec 22/Jan 20 Keep riding this creative wave you seem to be on, Capricorn. It will take you far and in many different directions. Trust in your dreams and put a plan to realize them into action.

AQUARIUS – Jan 21/Feb 18 Aquarius, assert yourself a little more at work so that you get the respect and the recognition you deserve. When you state your case, others will see your perspective.

PISCES – Feb 19/Mar 20 Pisces, you tend to see the best in everyone and that is why you are such a good friend to so many people. Maintain your positive outlook.
