Hydro meeting in Kinburn to feature ombudsman June 10 Jessica Cunha jessica.cunha@metroland.com

The Hydro One ombudsman will be in Kinburn Friday to answer questions and concerns relating to hydro bills.

Fiona Crean will be on hand to speak with residents directly at the Kinburn Community Centre

on Friday, June 10. West Carleton-March Coun.

Eli El-Chantiry cautioned, however, that joining Hydro Ottawa is not within her mandate.

“Her mandate is about billing, if smart meters are not working – concerns about service, cost, etc.,” said the councillor.

Buzz of excitement at Carp Airport as jet show approaches Jessica Cunha jessica.cunha@metroland.com

The Carp Airport will be buzzing with excitement when the Ottawa Valley Jets radio control club takes over the airfield on July 2.

These miniature planes aren’t your basic models – fuelled by kerosene

many can fly faster than 200-miles per hour, with turbine motors and the same working parts as fullscale jets.

“These jets can be anywhere up to 10 or 12-feet long,” said Ken Park, event director for Ottawa Valley Jets. “This is an airshow unlike anyone has seen.”

‘Bring your bill with you, bring your concerns and ask the ombudsman’: councillor Continued from page 1

On the ombudsman’s website, it states “Hydro One’s Ombudsman is an impartial, independent investigator who reviews and investigates complaints from the company’s customers and affected groups.”

Before taking her current position, Crean was the Ombudsman for the City of Toronto, an assistant deputy minister for Ontario’s corrections systems, and established the ombudsperson’s office at York University.

“When you complain to our office, we will try to resolve your problem through discussion or mediation with you and Hydro One. If that fails, and depending on the facts, we may launch a formal investigation,

The Hydro One ombudsman will be in Kinburn on Friday, June 10, to answer questions and concerns relating to hydro bills.

especially if your issue affects a large number of other people or there is something in the system that may not be working well,” she wrote in a letter posted on the ombudsman’s website.

El-Chantiry said that with the number of complaints surrounding Hydro One billing and smart meters, he’s hoping for a good turnout. His office booked a bigger venue so people aren’t turned away as they were during a public meeting for a proposed stormwater fee.

The Friday date is unfortunate, he said, but the ombudsman was only in town for a certain time period. Crean will be attending another public meeting in Greely on June 9.

“We hear a lot of stories about somebody saying, ‘My

bills have gone up from such to such.’ Bring your bill with you, bring your concerns and ask the ombudsman,” El-Chantiry said. “Hopefully she will help us through this so we can un-

derstand what’s happening and what’s taking place.”

The meeting takes place June 10, from 5 to 7:30 p.m., at the Kinburn Community Centre, 3045 Kinburn Side Rd.

Radio controlled turbine jet show set for July 2

Continued from page 1

“The sound and speed of the models will amaze and entertain everyone,” said Park.

This is the first event of its kind in Carp and Park said they’re planning for a good turnout of pilots – about 25 to 35 expected from around Ontario and Quebec – and spectators.

“It’s a nice family outing. We picked the Canada Day weekend knowing there would be a lot of people in the city,” said Park, who lives in Barrhaven. “It’s non-stop flying all day long.”

Park just started flying radio controlled turbine jets in the last year; progressing from building model planes when he was 16 to flying electric aircraft for about five years and now to the big jets.

“It’s a big like the guys

Pilots check over a radio controlled turbine jet at the Wingham Airport last year. The Ottawa Valley Jets radio control club and the Carp Airport are hosting an airshow on July 2 featuring the model aircraft. who collect the classic cars,” he said. “It’s a progression through the hobby. This is like the highest end of the

hobby you can go.”

The difference between electric and turbines is vast, he said. Electric planes put

out a high volume of compressed air using a battery, while the turbines are a miniaturization of the fullsize motors and burn kerosene.

“We’re the next best thing, models of the real

thing,” he said. “It’s just the thrill of recreating the full size stuff; you’re doing everything a real plane can do performance-wise. You have all the functions of a real plane, with landing gear and flaps. And there’s always the

possibility you could crash, like a real plane.”

Attendees will have the chance to talk to pilots and see the models up close, while an emcee will narrate the flights. The event will also feature music, food trucks, and lots of fun, said Park.

“Bring your sunscreen, bring water, bring a chair.

It’s very casual and the pilots will be glad to talk to people,” he said. “The kids really love it.”

The airshow takes place July 2, from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. with a rain date of July 3.

The cost is $5 for adults and children are free.

The Ottawa Valley Jets will also take to the sky on June 30 at the Vingtage Wings Airshow in Gatineau.

The club has members from across Ottawa, including Kanata, Stittsville, Nepean and Barrhaven.

For more information, find them on Facebook by searching Ottawa Valley Jets or visit maac.ca.

St James Anglican in Carp to offer scattering garden First of its kind in Eastern Ontario open to all denominations Jessica Cunha jessica.cunha@metroland.com

St. James Anglican Church in Carp will be the first location in Eastern Ontario to offer a scattering garden on consecrated ground for cremated ashes.

The scattering of cremated remains has been gaining in popularity as an affordable alternative to a costly burial and as a more environmentally friendly option to a casket burial, said Charlene Johnston, secretary and treasurer of the cemetery.

“The disadvantage of scattering in a park is that there is no certainty that park will remain as a park – it may be developed or re-zoned.”

Some people question if there is an environmental or biological hazard with scattering ashes, she said, adding the cremated remains pose no threats to the environment.

Johnston has been working on the project for three years and said she’s already received requests.

“People were showing interest in it so that’s encouraging,” she said.

“It’s the returning to the earth, it’s spiritual.”

The scattering garden is located

in the back of the heritage cemetery and will feature a stone wall where the names of the deceased can be inscribed. Benches, trees and flowering plants will surround the space as it grows.

“It gives people different burial options,” said Rev. Monique Stone.

“One of the Christian teachings is to be at one with Creation. This is an opportunity to do that.”

The naming wall will also offer a place where future generations can come to trace their family history, said Stone.

Scattering rights are available to all denominations and the church

offers a non-obligatory religious service at the time of scattering.

The scattering garden will be dedicated during the church’s annual cemetery service on June 12. The public is invited to attend the service

at 2:30 p.m. at St. James, which will be followed by a prayer of dedication at 3:15 p.m. in the garden.

“Traditionally, ashes have been scattered on a loved ones favourite place, in a park or lake,” she said.

“The advantage of scattering remains in a scattering garden is that the land is consecrated and the family may chose to have their loved one’s name inscribed on a permanent memorial.”

A dedicated scattering garden also provides certainty.

“The cemetery will prevail for centuries to come,” said Johnston.

Fitzroy students collect donations for Attawapiskat Jessica Cunha jessica.cunha@metroland.com

Students at St. Michael School Fitzroy have collected donations of clothing, warm outerwear and art supplies for Attawapiskat youth.

After attending a conference last month that focused on ending child poverty in Canada, they researched the issue and discovered that many living on the northern Ontario reserve live in poverty.

“It’s a really young population,” said Grade 6 student Avro Gallant. “We researched and we found many news articles about how much Attawapiskat needs our help.”

The community has been dealing with a youth suicide crisis. A state of emergency was declared in April after 11 suicide attempts in the month by April 13 and 28 recorded attempts in March, reported the Canadian Press.

After learning about the issues facing Attawapiskat youth, a group of Grade 6 students put together slide show, which they presented to the entire school on May 31.

They requested donations of warm clothing and art supplies to send to Attawapiskat, said student Avery Crouchman.

“We have so many things,” said student Ava McKnight. “It’s not nice to know a place in Canada has so little.”

The conference focused on the Keep the Promise campaign, an intergenerational project focused on ending child poverty in Canada.

“Twenty-five years ago the government promised to end child poverty,” said student Thomas Blondin.

“That hasn’t happened yet.”

The federal government voted to end child poverty by the year 2000 in 1989. All parties voted again in 2000 and 2015 to eliminate child poverty but according to Campaign 2000, nearly one in five Canadian children lives in poverty while that number is one in two for First Nations youth.

The Fitzroy students have made a pledge to Keep the Promise, said teacher Giovanna Spezzano. The students all said it's unacceptable to know so many children are still living in poverty across the country.

“We have to take charge,” said Avery. Ava added, "To help end child poverty."

Donations were collected From May 31 to June 3 before being sent to the school board’s office to be flown to Attawapiskat.

It’s good to think big for 150th birthday

I

t’ll be a big day when Canada turns 150.

And we should be thankful that the people in charge of the party are thinking big.

Subterranean sound and light shows are coming. The list of entertainment options keeps growing.

Announcements of new ideas continue week by week, month by month. The folks in charge are not holding back, and we’re lucky to live here in the capital, where the biggest party in the country will take place.

Last week saw the announcement of a massive entertainment idea: a giant dragon and a spider that will chill anyone with arachnophobia. The dragon even breathes fire.

The giant wildlife will turn some of Ottawa’s streets into art galleries. They’ll be very public galleries; easily accessible to all. That makes it a great idea.

Canada’s 150th birthday – to be celebrated throughout 2017 – needs to incorporate as many free events as possible. It’s a Canadian value to share.

It will take lots of tax money to put on the party, but we’ll all be able to enjoy the activities, no matter

who we are or where we come from.

Anyone who laments the tax spending should consider the organizing committee’s estimate that the party will boost tourism across Canada, all while generating jobs. As well, there are millions of dollars in private funding going towards the nation’s milestone birthday bash.

The committee estimates a large economic impact for the city, province and country, projecting it will have more than a $230 million impact on GDP and generate more than 3,000 jobs for the province.

The celebrations will stretch throughout 2017, and will take place in cities and towns, spreading the economic impact far and wide.

So far the signs from organizers here in Ottawa are promising. Parliament Hill and the streets of this city are excellent venues that ensure everyone can get a look at the shows, the dragons and any spiders on the prowl. “It will change the way people view Ottawa,� said Ottawa 2017 executive director Guy Laflamme.

Ottawans should look forward to more announcements from the committee. The last task?

Someone will have to bake a VERY big cake.

Technology challenges everyday ethics

L

et’s count up the things the Internet has brought us since it began impacting our lives, roughly 20 years ago: Scams, online bullying, a vast increase in racist and insulting comments, pornography, hacking of personal, corporate and governmental websites, easier plagiarism, computer viruses, selfies, diminished incomes for writers and musicians, texting while driving, the death of independent bookstores, the impending death of privacy, the possible death of print journalism, and the near-death of attention spans.

That may not be a complete list.

But we can’t go back. Humans being humans, we never do. That would not be progress.

And the Internet has brought us positives as well, such as access to real information, assistance with

8 West Carleton Review - Thursday, June 9, 2016

Still, every once in a while comes an event that makes you wonder.

This time it’s the grabbing of tickets for the Tragically Hip farewell tour.

Many Canadians are fans of the band and are even more involved in this tour because of the incurable brain cancer of its lead singer, Gord Downie. They went through their usual Internet moves as soon as tickets went on sale, only to find that they had been scooped up by scalpers, who then offered them for exorbitant mark-up prices on reseller sites.

There has been public outrage, justified. This sort of thing has happened before, but the poignancy of this particular tour has intensified public anger.

There are demands for action.

People want government to do something. But government has Sales Manager: -FTMJF 0TCPSOF MFTMJF PTCPSOF!NFUSPMBOE DPN "SOQSJPS 8$ DISPLAY ADVERTISING: $ISJTUJOF +BSSFU "SOQSJPS 8$ DISJTUJOF KBSSFUU!NFUSPMBOE DPN 4UFQIBOJF +BNJFTPO 3FOGSFX TUFQIBOJF KBNJFTPO!NFUSPMBOE DPN (JTFMF (PEJO ,BOBUB .JLF 4UPPEMFZ 4UJUUTWJMMF "OOJF %BWJT 0UUBXB 8FTU CLASSIFIED ADVERTISING SALES: /BODZ 4NJUI 4IBSPO 3VTTFMM THE DEADLINE FOR CLASSIFIED AND DISPLAY ADVERTISING IS MONDAY 9:30AM

tried. Scalping used to be illegal in Ontario. There is a newer law that sort of discourages it but doesn’t quite abolish it, as we have seen.

How would a law work? Could it eliminate the powerful computer programs that instantly buy up huge blocs of tickets? Could it outlaw ticket resellers, which are now huge corporations? Could it avoid punishing individuals who have legitimate reasons, such as illness, for wanting to resell their tickets? Could it deal with the front-of-the-line programs that seem to put tickets into the hands of resellers?

Or does the answer lie elsewhere?

(No, not another public awareness campaign!) Could it lie in individuals declining to act like jerks or declining to help jerks? Such as: don’t buy the scalped tickets; let the scalpers eat the tickets they gobbled up..

Another answer is promoters using their power responsibly. When Ontario’s ticket reselling law was announced about a year ago, Mirvish EDITORIAL: Managing Editor: 5IFSFTB 'SJU[ UIFSFTB GSJU[!NFUSPMBOE DPN

All over the countryside, farmers are raising your Thanksgiving dinners.

We brought our turkey chicks home a couple weeks ago. The Farmer had carefully shored up the convertible horse stalls again.

They have been used in the past to raise chicks, birth cattle and protect newborn lambs, as well as their intended purpose which was of course to shelter our two horses. Now that we no longer have horses we use the stalls because they are small and close to the house. So we can easily be roused if there is a ruckus therein.

This morning the call of turkey chicks attracted me to the barn. I noted the Farmer had put a live trap on the back porch in the attempt to catch the fat, lazy raccoon who eats the cat food every night. At first I wondered why the cat’s water bowl was full of mud every morning.

Then one night I flicked the porch light on after dark and there she was. The roundest, fluffiest raccoon I have ever seen was crouched there over the feeding station, carefully washing the cat kibble in the water bowl before stuffing it in her mouth. I hissed at her and she gave me a look of disdain, then waddled away.

We need to catch this raccoon, because one night a couple years ago either a skunk or raccoon took all 57 of our chicks in one night. So far she has evaded us by being too large for the live trap.

I hate to think we can’t live in peaceful coexistence with all beasts on the farm but sometimes an animal ventures too far into forbidden territory and their basic instincts kick in. Next thing you know, we’ve got a massacre on our hands. It ain’t pretty. I am going to research how to scare away raccoons. It’s for her own good.

It’s getting nice and warm out now, and my daughter wants to take the baby in the pool.

The Farmer cleaned and treated the pool, and it’s warming up nicely. The only problem is we have strategically placed bird droppings all around the pool ledge. In the fifteen+ years the pool has been there, we have never had bird droppings on the ledge.

I scraped the poop off the pool ledge, cleaned it with bleach spray and then attempted to place uncomfortable-looking, colourful objects around the perimeter to deter the bird. A pool

DIANA FISHER Accidental Farmwife brush, a dustpan, a few floating candles. It did not deter the birds. They returned, and what they did next really surprised me.

As I watched in amazement, the bird landed precariously on the pool ledge in between the assortment of colourful objects. She carried some sort of sac in her beak. Placing the sac on the ledge, she flew off. Moments later she returned with another sac, and placed it a few inches from the first sac. She continued this activity – or perhaps it was more than one bird helping out – until the north edge of the pool was once again covered in tiny sacs of bird poop. I went online to find out what the heck was happening.

My bird expert friends explained. A grackle has been cleaning her nest by depositing her babies’ fecal sacs on the edge of our swimming pool. Charming, and yet disgusting all at the same time.

The good news is, when the baby birds leave the nest, there will be no more deposits on the pool ledge. I was happy to hear that, because the last time I watched, she was dropping the sacks directly into the pool.

Maybe if we bought a pool blanket the bird would have to take her little bags of poop elsewhere. Because the bird experts say she really wants to deposit them beside a pool of water.

She can carry them to the creek as often as she likes and I won’t say a word.

There is one type of animal on the farm who seems to be taking this peaceful co-existence thing a bit too far. The barn cats seem to be confused about their job descriptions. Not only are the birds free to soil the pool unchallenged, but I just saw a mouse walk by.

Farming takes a lot of patience and understanding. www.theaccidentalfarmwife.blogspot.com www.dianafisherbooks.com email: dianafisher1@gmail.com

Carp students pledge support to Indigenous Canadians We Stand Together campaign about breaking stereotypes and speaking up to educate others Jessica Cunha jessica.cunha@metroland.com

Students at Huntley Centennial Public School took a stand on June 1 as part of an awareness-raising campaign to get people talking about the challenges facing Indigenous Canadians and to celebrate their contributions to Canada.

Led by Huntley’s Intermediate Character Crew, the We Stand Together campaign is about breaking stereotypes and speaking up to educate others.

"Three out of four Canadians believe that Indigenous peoples face discrimination in Canada and yet many of us are uncomfortable adding our voices

to the conversation," wrote the Character Crew.

"Our silence gives credence to the stereotypes. So how do you bust a stereotype? You listen. You learn.

And then you speak up to help educate others. That's what We Stand Together is all about."

Grades 7 and 8 students lined the front walk of the school on Wednesday to create a “corridor of voices,” each with a narrative inspired by the Seven Sacred Teachings by David Bouchard and Dr. Joseph Martin, a book of traditional Aboriginal values and hope for the future.

The voices along the corridor began with a bleak outlook.

Students add their names to a giant dreamcatcher after walking through the 'corridor of voices'. Huntley Centennial Public School took a stand on June 1 as part of an awareness-raising campaign to get people talking about the challenges facing Indigenous Canadians and to celebrate their contributions to Canada.

“Long ago, and still today, I was a child and the world did not listen,” said Grade 8 student Katelyn Storr as walkers passed by her.

The students continued: "My school is cold. My friends are sad. No one can help. The water is not clean and we cannot quench our thirst. The land hurts as much as our hearts. Where are my people? My stories?

My Truth?"

The voices then began to offer support as allies: "I want to walk beside you as you journey down this road. There is something

much stronger than just me and that is we. What I do for others will come back to me. I will learn respect and balance in this life."

“Every struggle prepares us for the next to come.

I will be courageous and stand with the Aboriginal people of Canada and all people around the world,” said Devinder Sarai, in Grade 7.

The corridor of voices culminated in a promise to stand together: "I will stand with the children on the reservations and in our midst with respect for them, their history, their future. I will stand with the elders so that I can gain from their wisdom. I will stand with the Aboriginal people of Canada to celebrate truth.

We will stand together. You are not alone."

was a giant dreamcatcher where students and guests tied a ribbon with their name on it in support of First Nations, Inuit and Métis people.

“It was very powerful and moving, ” said Devinder. “It really empowers us to take action and make change.”

The project came about after the Character Crew spoke with Métis Youth Leader Talitha Tolles, said teacher Marg Graff. They asked her what they could do to help and her answer was to educate themselves and others.

Grade 7 student Rebecca Wieler said it’s important to not be silent and that steps need to be taken to reconcile the past.

munity,” she said. “By doing this we’re acknowledging this happened and we want to help as we move forward.”

The school is taking part in an enriched Aboriginalfocus program throughout May and June.

Other activities included storytelling circles around the schoolyard during recess where students shared Inuit, Métis and First Nations stories from the library’s collection, and learning a Friendship Dance.

Students will prepare a portfolio of their thoughts, experiences and reflections that will be presented to former Prime Minister Paul Martin, who works with the Martin Aboriginal Education Foundation, and Craig Kielburger, founder of Free the Children, at the end of the month.

Vanier students enjoy ‘country hospitality’ at Huntley Jessica Cunha jessica.cunha@metroland.com

Students from Robert E. Wilson Public School in Vanier enjoyed some “country hospitality” in Carp on June 3.

Huntley Centennial Public School students in Donna Christie’s class hosted a barbecue for the urban city class, before they all trooped off into the village to watch the horse shows taking place at the Carp Fairgrounds.

“The children (at Huntley) raise all the money by selling candygrams,” said Christie, adding they love treating the urban students to some “country hospitality.”

The two schools have been hosting each other's classes for the past

10 years, she said.

The two classes link up at the beginning of the year when students are paired off as pen pals. They learn letter writing as they correspond with each other before the Huntley class takes a trip to Vanier to see an urban school setting in May. The students also attend the Canadian Museum of History while downtown.

The trips, from Carp to Vanier and vice versa, allow the students to study the differences between an urban and rural setting, said Christie, which falls under the social studies curriculum.

The students enjoyed a picnic on blankets around Huntley’s grounds before taking a tour of the village.

Diefenbunker toilets in need of repair Staff

The Diefenbunker was built to withstand a nuclear blast but its toilets are “pooped.”

The Cold War Museum launched a fundraising campaign with the Great Canadian Giving Challenge, called a Toilet Tale, seeking $10,000 in donations to upgrade its failing washrooms.

“There’s no way around it, our system is pooped,” says the plea on the Diefenbunker fundraising page.

“If you’ve been to the museum (and we hope you have), you’ll have no doubt noticed the many out of order signs that grace our stall doors. And stalls that are actually open welcome visitors with a kind reminder to hold that flush for a count of 10.”

As of June 6, $1,420 had

DIEFENBUNKER.CA

The toilets and urinals at the Diefenbunker are in need of upgrades. been raised.

The toilets are among the character-defining elements that designate it as a National Historic Site, according to the

Diefenbunker. Mounted on a one-inch hard rubber pad, they have flexible connections to the system to keep them from breaking or disconnect-

ing “in the case of an explosion (insert potty humour here).”

“There are no toilets like our toilets,” Lizz Thrasher, facility manager, says.

The funds will be used for improvements to the pressure distribution system to help keep the toilets functional.

“While our team of volunteers and staff does what it can to keep on top of all that needs fixing, some things are just too big for us to undertake on our own,” says the museum.

“Your contribution will help us bring in the professionals and ensure that once work is completed, your next visit to the Diefenbunker is even better.”

For details, or to make a donation visit diefenbunker. ca/a-toilet-tale. Donations are accepted until June 30.

Diefenbunker to unveil Cold War exhibit from Germany A special Cold War exhibit will be unveiling Tuesday, June 14 right after the Diefenbunker’s annual meeting.

‘The Cold War: Causes History – Impact’ is an exhibit developed by two German organizations and will be displayed at the Diefenbunker: Canada’s Cold War Museum.

The German Ambassador to Canada, Werner Wnendt, will be on hand for the official opening reception of the exhibit.

The Diefenbunker’s AGM will start at 6 p.m. with the reception to follow from 7 to 9 p.m. The Ambassador and the Diefenbunker’s executive director Henriette Riegel along with the board of directors are inviting the public to attend the event.

The exhibit was produced by the Berlin Centre for Cold War Studies and the Federal Foundation for the Reappraisal of the SED Dictatorship. It examines the ideological, political, military, and economic causes of the Cold War from a global perspective.

The Diefenbunker says it is honoured to be the first venue to host the exhibition outside of Berlin. It will be on display until Aug. 28.

WHITTON LECTURE

In conjunction with its new exhibition, the Diefenbunker is presenting a lecture a week later on Ottawa Civil Defence

by Andrew Sopko.

Entitled ‘Sound and Fury: A Brief History of Ottawa Civil

Defence under Charlotte Whitton, 1960-1962’, the talk will be give on Tuesday, June 21.

It will be preceded by an optional guided tour from 6-7 p.m., with the lecture followed by a question-and-answer period and refreshments running 7-8 p.m.

From 1960-1962, after years of debate and deferral, the City of Ottawa finally had an official organization, dubbed the City-County Emergency Measures Organization (CCEMO), intended to ready the city for the possibility of a nuclear attack.

However, in the wake of a major resignation, a political crisis took place that saw the organization crumble into irrelevancy.

Under the stubborn leader-

ship of Charlotte Whitton, the City dismissed its responsibility for civil defence. This decision, while controversial, had been supported by years of poor communication from the federal government and by the rapidly improving destructiveness of nuclear arms.

Thus, while the historical narrative of Ottawa’s civil defence program seems unproductive when taken alongside federal efforts, such as the Diefenbunker, it was the culmination of years of changeable policy directions, a lack of communication and excessive expectations on the part of the federal government.

I was one of three MPPs who voted against it. It was a sad day for property rights.

Sticks and Stones evening for MPP raises $1,500 for Red Cross The organizers of the Sticks and Stones evening in support of beleaguered Carleton-Mississippi Mills MPP Jack MacLaren are calling the effort a success.

The event raised $1,500 for the Red Cross to give to the fire victims in Fort McMurray.

In a news release about the gathering in Kanata on May 28, organizers said “our objective of getting together with friends and family in support of MPP Jack MacLaren for a fun evening, a time to put politics aside for a moment, and get past a somewhat difficult time, not only for Mr. MacLaren and his family , but for all of us was certainly met.”

The release goes on the say that at the meeting, MacLaren emphasized the importance of having a loving family and loyal friends during turbulent and rough times.

MPP JACK MACLAREN The theme of the evening ‘Sticks and Stones’ from the old nursery rhyme “Sticks and stones will break my bones but names will never hurt me,” was “elegantly addressed by the guest of honour in his thank you speech,” say organizers.

“The adage is wrong; names do hurt and they can hurt badly. We wanted the

Sticks and Stones theme to remind everyone to think before they speak and to be kinder in general.”

The release went on to say that: “We can never entirely get away from politics especially when politicians are present. But the excellent meal served by the Intercultural Dialogue Institute, the exceptionally amazing magic show by Eric Leclerc, and the chance to win one of the many prizes donated by local businesses and individuals all contributed to a stress free evening.”

Close to 200 tickets were sold. The donation of $1,500 went to the Red Cross, as it was MacLaren’s charity of choice.

“Thanks to the Intercultural Dialogue Institute, our emcee Jonathan Mark, all of our volunteers, and, of course, our guests for making this a truly magical evening,” concludes the release.

18 West Carleton Review - Thursday, June 9, 2016

Some babies only get motherly love Currently many animals are busy preparing for the arrival of young.

Recently I watched a Red Squirrel going back and forth from a dead tree to a mossy outcrop a hundred feet away.

On the ground it would stuff its mouth full of soft moss then climb a nearby pine and with the ease of Tarzan quickly traverse several trees until it reached the dead one.

There it would disappear into a cavity only to emerge a few seconds later, mouth empty. This process was repeated numerous times until I had to leave.

Even though male and female Red Squirrels are identical to our eye (but obviously

Michael Runtz Nature’s Way not to theirs!) I knew this was a female preparing a birth den.

The first conclusion was easy because in 90 per cent

of all of the mammals in the world, after mating the males depart, leaving the impregnated females to deal with the aftermath of their sexual interlude.

This applies to most rodents with Beavers being a notable exception. The other conclusion was also a “no brainer” because Red Squirrels don’t eat moss and use it only for lining dens.

Things are different in birds. In about 95 per cent of all 9,8000 species alive today, males help their mates rear young.

Rearing young can involve keeping eggs warm, feeding mates on the nest, keeping young birds fed and warm, keeping a nest free of feces, and protecting young from predators.

All of these duties take place after a nest is built, a task often completed solely by the female.

Geese are unusual among waterfowl in that both parents help care for their young.

Some birds already have their first brood off the nest.

Recently I’ve seen newly fledged Eastern Phoebes, as well as many broods of ducks and geese.

While male ducks subscribe to the “love them and leave them” philosophy, Canada Geese do not, and male geese can be seen alongside their mates keeping a close eye on their goslings.

Incidentally, geese normally have fewer than eight eggs in a nest so if you see a pair with a dozen or so young in tow, you are not seeing the result of fertility drugs.

You are seeing a crèche, a common phenomenon in waterfowl, especially ducks.

For some reason – possibly the health of the abandoning female – some females deposit their brood with another female and her brood.

Regardless of the underlying reason a benefit is conferred to both broods: by travelling in large numbers, the odds of any one youngster being taken by a predator are reduced.

PHOTOS BY MICHAEL RUNTZ

Keeping their young warm on cold days is only one of the many parental tasks performed by American Robins and other songbirds.

Soon after hatching, waterfowl babies abandon their nest. But songbird hatchlings remain in their nests for about two weeks, until their flight feathers grow in.

After fledging, they continue to be fed by the parents until they gain full independence.

Even though their young will soon be on their own, many songbirds are not yet done with parental responsibilities.

THE ART OF PERFORMANCE

For some, such as American Robins and Eastern Phoebes, a second and even third batch of young may be produced.

And during those other additional nesting efforts, the males never shirk their responsibilities.

But I wonder if they ever wish they were a duck?

Free provincial park day set for July 15 Ontario’s provincial parks will be open to the public free of charge on July 15 for all day-use visitors, as part of the world-wide Healthy Parks Healthy People movement.

Started in Australia, Healthy Parks Healthy People reinforces and encourages the connections between a healthy environment and a healthy society.

Many Ontario parks will be offering a number of fun activities on July 15, and throughout the year.

Included is Fitzroy Provincial Park, which is open for camping May 13 to Oct. 11.

Research shows access to nature and green space plays a vital role in physical and mental health, well-being and development.

For example: • playing in natural environments is essential to children’s development of observation, problem-solving, reasoning, creativity and imagination;

• contact with nature has restorative properties, increasing energy and improving feelings of vitality and focus; • time outside lifts levels of Vitamin D, which is essential for calcium absorption and can help mitigate several diseases and mental health issues; • spending time outdoors is linked to increased work productivity and creativity, and decreased levels of stress and anxiety.

In 2015, Ontario’s more than 330 provincial parks received more than 9.8 million visits from people around the world and brought in almost $90 million in revenue, which supports jobs and businesses across the province.

Last year’s free day-use day for Healthy Parks Healthy People drew an estimated 14,802 visitors.

Check out more on the free day at www.ontarioparks.com.

Why not combine beer and music and then call it a festival?

Walter Baker Park will have something new for Canada Day weekend this year with the start of the first-ever Kanata Festival of Beer.

The microbrewery Whiprsnapr has spearheaded the concept and to get people interested, they held a launch party on June 3.

The duo of Silver Creek put on an acoustic set at that brewing company. The location can be found at Bexley Place in Bells Corner.

“It’s good this year because Canada Day is on the Friday,” said Dave Howard, founder of Whiprsnapr.

“So people will be leaving work on Thursday.”

The festival actually kicks off on the June 30 at 4 p.m. On Canada

The brewing company has been around for only a year and a half and they already considering expanding their operation into another unit, said Howard.

Whiprsnapr also invested in a new canning line for their beer.

There is a selection of about 15 beers, said Howard.

He did highlight their maple cream ale – the internet describes it as a beverage with a ‘subtle maple sweetness, and aged on maple wood chips to give it a woodsy earthy tone.’ Proceeds from sales go towards Do It For Daron.

Capital 2 Capital cyclists return from trip Brier Dodge brier.dodge@metroland.com

First responders have returned to their hometowns after cycling more than 1,600 kilometres for mental health for first responders.

Ottawa first responders, including Ottawa’s Norm Robillard, spearheaded the ride to raise awareness and funds for emergency service workers struggling with mental health issues, including post traumatic stress disorder.

The ride met up with an American group, the Muddy Angels, for their annual ride from Boston, called the National EMS Memorial Bike Ride.

They rode as a group to just outside Washington, D.C., for the second portion of the cycling tour.

There are multiple memorial rides for first responders who have died, but the Heroes are Human ride focuses on PTSD and deaths from suicide.

Along the way, the group stopped in a number of cities and spoke with first responders about depression and PTSD, starting conversations.

They wrapped up a successful ride on May 20. Kanata’s Frank McGregor, a paramedic for more than 30 years, reflected on the ride when the group returned, writing a post summarizing the journey.

He said, “The Oxford dictionary defines ‘a journey’ as an act of travelling from one place to another. In this sense, and if that’s all this journey was, our journey took us from Ottawa, Ont., Canada through two provinces, across our national border into the United States, across many states ultimately ending our journey in Arlington, VA in the greater Washington metropolitan area.

“For the approximately 25 riders that participated in both the Heroes Are Human Capital to Capital Awareness Ride, and the National EMS Memorial Bike Ride, we logged over 1,600 kilometres or 1,000 miles over 14 days. Many other participants, at times we numbered 100, joined us along the way and rode what they could for as long as they were able and their participation was integral to our collective journey.

“However, Oxford also goes on to give an expanded definition of journey as ‘A long and often difficult process of personal change and development.’ And it is this definition, for me, truly reflects our experience.

“Since I’ve returned I have shared to some the range of spiritual, physical and emotional experiences that were had along the way.

“It was a wonder to observe, how life’s contrast was evident all around

us. How the dualities of sadness and joy, peaks and valleys, fast and slow, rich and poor were visible to those who chose to acknowledge their presence. How the elation of completing a ride is spun on its axis and is given depth, meaning and honour by the reading of names. How your fatigue and pain are given new perspective once the you see the faces of loved ones who have lost.

“There were times where every turn of the pedal required more force than the last, and times where the pavement seemed to fly effortlessly under my wheels. Moments where the riders could get lost in their thoughts and others where your attention was required to be at its peak.

“We would ride silently through the Connecticut countryside, with the sounds of the birds only interrupted by the whirring of your chain, only to be contrasted by the piercing wail of police sirens as they safely escort you through the heart of New York City the very next day. Loud and bold, soft and quiet, both experiences invaluable in their own right.

“Along our path we passed thousands on the fly with a wave a smile, yet made time to shake the hands of those that came to give their support, or were there, just thankful for your presence. We arrived as strangers, but

“An hour-long relationship built on connection, openness and mutual support. We spoke with the young, the old, the ‘probie,’ and the Chief.

Conversations were had, stories were shared. Tragedy and triumph in the same room, connecting.

“To paraphrase Mr. Normand Robillard, co-founder of the Capital to Capital Ride who asks, ‘How

do you measure the success of a ride like this? Is it by the money raised?

The kilometres ridden? The truth is we may never know if this ride was successful. But perhaps, just perhaps we connected with someone who was hurting inside, and by giving them a card, or by shaking their hand, or by starting the conversation we’ve made a difference for that person, or someone they know. And if we do, then we are successful.’

ADHS girls earn bronze at Ontario rugby championship Staff

Arnprior District High School rebounded from a rare defeat to win a bronze medal in the Ontario A/AA girls rugby championship.

ADHS defeated St. Mary’s 26-15 June 1 to finish third at the OFSAA championships in Ottawa.

Arnprior’s only loss was to perennial girls rugby powerhouse and eventual champion Trenton in the semi-final game.

Trenton won its third straight A/AA girls rugby title and sixth in the last eight years by trampling topranked Bayside 31-7 in the gold medal game. Trenton was ranked second, ADHS third and St. Mary’s fourth in pre-tournament seedings.

Arnprior gave Trenton its toughest test of the tournament, losing 15-0 in the semi-final Tuesday afternoon. Trenton scored more than 30 points in all its other tournament games.

ADHS kicked off the tournament with a 29-0 win over number 14 seed Ashbury College. Anne-Marie McNab scored two tries, with Shelby Macmillan, Hanna Scott and Bobby Jo Cavanagh adding one each.

Kirsten Trafford had two two-point converts to round out the Arnprior scoring.

ADHS moved into medal contention with a 32-0 win over number 11 seed Courtice, an upset winner over St. Michael’s in its first game. Kirsten Trafford led the way with two tries, while Dakota Hanson, Bobby Jo Cavanagh, Caitlin Clouthier and Grace Maxwell added one each.

Clouthier also had a twopoint convert.

That win set up a powerhouse clash between ADHS and Trenton for a berth in the Gold medal final.

Although shorthanded as a result of a few key injuries and on the wrong side of some crucial and puzzling officiating decisions, ADHS fought to the limit, reports coach Glenn Wallace.

Anne-Marie McNab breaks away to score one of her two tries against Ashbury in a 29-0 ADHS win.

Trailing only 5-0 with 10 minutes to go, a crucial officiating decision went against ADHS and allowed a controversial second Trenton try to stand.

Wallace notes the game was far closer than the final score of 15-0 for Trenton would suggest.

ADHS rebounded from the disappointment of their semi-final defeat to beat number 4 St. Mary’s of Owen Sound.

It was just the latest in a string of strong performances by the Arnprior girls rugby team, which finished fourth at OFSAA last year and has captured five Eastern Ontario titles in the last eight years.

The 2016 A/AA OFSAA bronze medal goes into the trophy cabinet alongside the 2011 A/AA OFSAA silver medal and 2015 AAA OFSAA antique bronze (fourth-place) medal.

Serving Constituents of Kanata-Carleton

Member of Parliament Kanata-Carleton Ruddy-Shenkman Hospice Expansion Congratulations to the Ruddy-Shenkman Hospice as they launched the building of their residential wing in Kanata.

The new wing will be named Hein House in honour of Roly Hein, who along with his wife Barbara, have given so generously to Hospice. I am so thankful for the selfless work that the hospice staff does every day.

Protecting the Ottawa River I was thrilled to attend this year’s Riverkeeper Gala. The organizers of the event have raised more than $420,000 to help support the work of monitoring, restoring and protecting the magnificent Ottawa River and watershed.

The Ottawa River is so important to our Riding and our City and we must do everything we can to protect the waterway.

Youth Summer Jobs Program I was thrilled to join Prime Minister Justin Trudeau at CHEO for the Summer Jobs Program announcement.

In our community of Kanata-Carleton the Government of Canada invested $689,801 across 70 local projects and created 290 jobs for youth. The program delivers important and diverse community services that can range from youth services organizations, to summer camps to services for seniors. Students learn transferable skills such as public speaking, time management, self-confidence, and organizational skills.

Funding Announcement – Edgewater Computer Systems It was my great pleasure to announce, on behalf of the Minister of Innovation, Science and Economic Development, Navdeep Bains, that the Government of Canada will make a repayable contribution of $2.73 million to Kanata-based Edgewater Computer Systems.

Edgewater is working on a solution, the SPARTAN Program, which will enable military agencies to modernize their data systems. This is a great example of the numerous high tech innovation companies we have in our Riding.

There will be many activities taking place at Walter Baker Park in Kanata, beginning with the Scotiabank Canada Day Road Race at 8 am and including opening ceremonies at 5 pm. I am also looking forward to attending events in Huntley and Dunrobin as well.

I encourage everyone to celebrate the day with family and friends.

For a young athlete, meeting a sports hero is a memorable experience.

Ottawa Fury FC is offering its Fury Fanatics program for the second year, and has expanded the number of clubs participating.

The program gives youth soccer players aged 14 and under free access to games at TD Place all season, and the teams which are the most successful in selling tickets to adults and parents are given the opportunity to get up close and personal with the team and interact at games.

“It was amazing,” said Cumberland United Soccer Club coach Isabelle Aube,

who took her U12 competitive girls team to watch the Fury last year. “I think it motivated them, it inspired them and it made it seem accessible.”

The youth players get free tickets, but clubs host special nights where the youth team sells tickets to parents and friends. Groups which commit to selling 25 tickets or more qualify to watch the warm up from the sidelines, and groups which sell 50 or more get an extra experience – such as a training session with a player, or a chance to be on the field.

Aube’s team had a former Fury player, Nicki Paterson, attend a training session and members of the team also acted as ball retrievers and later played a mini-match at halftime.

“Its confirmation that (dreams to play pro) can come true, and it makes it less scary,” Aube said.

Farhan Mirza, who runs the Fury Fanatics program, said young players are excited to be able to meet the professionals.

“It’s often bewilderment and excitement all rolled into one,” he said. “They want to high five them, get their autographs.”

The program has grown this year to include six more clubs, upping the total to 30,000 players who have access to the Fury FC games. The tally includes clubs in the city, but also rural based clubs from areas such as Arnprior, Almonte.

Perth and Kemptville.

Clubs are asked to help promote the Fury to their play-

ers and distribute passes that give players free access to the games.

While it’s community involvement for the Fury, it also means parents and non-soccer family members are purchasing soccer tickets to accompany the youth players.

It’s been successful for the Fury, which has 16 home games this year. The game day experiences are scheduled on a first come, first served basis.

“As long as they’re a minor soccer club, we’re open to working with them,” Mirza said. “The best benefit is the opportunity to watch professional soccer right in their backyard, for no cost.”

Stampede promises to be a rootin’ tootin’ time this weekend John Carter john.carter@metroland.com

Yippee ki yay. It’s rodeo time in Arnprior.

The Arnprior Stampede takes over the Arnprior Fairgrounds this weekend (June 10-12). The Arnprior Agricultural Society is bringing back professional rodeo for a second year after it was received so well last year.

If the stampede is as popular with the fans as it is with the competitors, it should be big hit again.

Organizer Glen Howard pointed out the stampede is being noticed big time by the competitors of the International Professional Rodeo Association. When registration opened up, more than 300 cowboys and cowgirls signed up in 12 hours to come to Arnprior for the first rodeo in this season’s series.

“It’s unprecedented,” said Howard. “It shows how much the competitors en-

joyed the town and how well the event was run last year.”

He noted the hospitality shown the stampede folks was appreciated and even if Arnprior is off the beaten track when it comes to the main circuit, the rodeo folks “love” coming here. “So big kudos to Arnprior.”

Another example of how well the Arnprior Stampede is viewed by the professional rodeo association is that it was voted one of the top five new rodeos in North America last year, said Howard. He quoted B.J. Prince, owner of Rawhide Rodeo, as saying the Arnprior Stampede was a “phenomenal show.”

Howard said while the main rodeos, set for 5-8 p.m.

Saturday and 2-5 p.m. Sunday, will be the big draw, there is plenty of other family attractions from the noon hours into the evening Saturday and to closing time at 5 p.m. Sunday.

The rodeo activities kick

off this Friday, June 10 at 11 a.m. with the two-hour rodeo education event. All area elementary students are invited to the fairgrounds to find out about the rodeo, its animals and hear a safety message from Ontario Power Generation.

Howard is disappointed that it’s a professional development day so the schools won’t be able to bus the students to the event like last year. But he notes that it’s a good way for parents to keep their children occupied for a couple of hours on a day off school.

The official Stampede kick-off runs 7:30 p.m. to 1 a.m. Friday with a dirt dance featuring the band Roadhouse.

“We have some great entertainment this year,” he said. Valley favourite the Riley New Band will be on stage from 1:30-4:30 Saturday and the Hoss and James Barker bands will entertain

Saddle bronc rider Luke Morgan is one of the many cowboys coming to Arnprior this weekend for the Stampede. after the rodeo from 8 p.m. to 1 a.m.

The Hoss band should be a hit with the older crowd, Howard said, noting the ‘outlaw’ band plays songs of Charlie Daniels, Waylon

Jennings, Johnny Cash, Kris Kristofferson and more.

“Both bands are highly recommended,” he said.

In conjunction with the entertainment, there will be a beer garden and a variety

of vendors will be on site.

On both days, there will be an expanded kids fun zone from 12:30 to 8 p.m. and the Urban Sports Yamaha Excitement ‘Revs Your Heart’ zone from 12:30 to 4 p.m.

Furthermore, Hydro One is bringing its huge Electricity Discovery Centre trailer.

“There will be a lot more stuff for the kids,” said Howard. “They should get a real kick out of the Hydro trailer.”

He said members of the local team penning group, who have been “incredibly helpful” in promoting the stampede, will be more prominent this year. They tended to be lost in the back ring last year, so their Spring Jackpot competition Saturday (1:303:30 p.m.) and Jackpot finals (noon to 2 p.m.) will be moved forward into the main ring.

“It (stampede) is all coming together,” said Howard.

“We’re stoked.”

The Madawaska Golf Club is back in full swing after a long winter of snow, ice and cold weather.

The season had a bit of a late start, but the course is in exceptional condition and Martyn Munro and his staff have been very busy keeping ahead of the grass cutting and cleaning up the winter debris.

Major changes include additional tree clearing on both sides of the 1st fairway as well as beside the 10th green and the along both sides of the 11th fairway. The 17th tee is currently being rebuilt with some major tree clearing.

TEENAGE MUTANT NINJA TURTLES 2: OUT OF THE SHADOWS 2ND BIG WEEK!

Diabetes, one of the most common condition in our current day and age, can often turn into a “silent killer” in advanced stages. During the initial stages we are having many uncomfortable symptoms associated with this condition which interfere in one way or another with our lives. However in advanced stages diabetes can contribute to prolonging our suffering and often healing journeys are incredibly challenged and can even be fatal.

I personally observed my grandfather suffer for many years from the ill effects of diabetes, where a wound wasn’t healing, which led to the amputation of a toe and later on even of his leg. Finally, as we see all too often, I saw, what used to be a strong vibrant man, my grandfather giving up and suffering to his final days.

That was unfortunately well before I knew about Heilkunst.

Diabetes is what I’d call more a challenging by-product of our industrial revolution era. In the majority of cases we can do a lot to try and prevent it - and by this I mean ourselves - not the Doctors. Lifestyle and of course eating habits are considered to be the main culprits in the prevention or the management of diabetes. Stress and emotional challenges should not be overlooked or discredited to be doing their influential part as well.

Of course, just as with many other chronic conditions, the moment one organ is chronically challenged or damaged, it will have an effect on other organs as well.

This is how the vicious cycle often starts.

Our Heilkunst treatment will look at all facets of the diabetic condition, from prevention, hereditary challenges, life styles, nutritional habits to pain management. We will look at organ rejuvenation and will try to bring back a proper organ function of your pancreas. Our Live Blood Analysis will help assist any nutritional deficiencies, so you know where to put your money and efforts to rebuild your body, rather than shooting stars by taking a lot of supplements not knowing whether you actually need or benefit from them.

I helped many people manage their diabetes to prevent any medication as well as bringing individuals off the needle to manage their diabetes just with medication. Can you imagine how grateful they are to have this new peace of mind?

Can YOU imagine what kind of new freedom and peace it would be if YOU could also personally benefit from our treatment? Not even to mention how happy your spouses, children or loved ones would be to see you manage this condition in a new way.Take Control…Experience Heilkunst!

Memorial golf tournament honours late Bishops alumni Megan DeLaire mdelaire@metroland.com

SUBMITTED

Bishops University graduate and Kanata resident Kyle Pearson was passionate about education, his family and friends say, which is why they consider the upcoming Four Shades of Purple Memorial Golf Tournament and Fundraiser in Kanata on July 4.

The grass underfoot may be green, but the cause will be purple – four shades of purple.

Organized by a group of Bishops University alumni living in Ottawa, the Four Shades of Purple Memorial Golf Tournament scheduled to take place at Kanata Golf and Country Club on July 4 will honour four classmates who died between 2005 and 2010.

The inaugural Ottawa golf tournament and fundraiser will feature an 18-hole game with 120 openings, a barbecue lunch, dinner, prizes and live and silent auctions. At $150 per ticket, registration also includes the use of a

golf cart.

Proceeds from its auctions and hole sponsorship opportunities – $1,000 for a hole-in-one, $500 for an eagle, $250 for a birdie and $100 for par – will go directly to the Four Shades of Purple Memorial Group, named for the Quebec school’s official colour and the four friends whose memory the charitable foundation honours.

“We were trying to think of a clever name for the charity that would encompass the four boys,” said tournament organizer and Bishops alumnus Maggie Jeffrey, who now lives in Westboro. “Purple is the colour of Bishops, so we were thinking with four shades, they were all different individuals, so it’s tying the four of them in with the Bishops community.”

Michel Fontaine, Cody Triggs, Kyle Pearson and David Teehan came from different areas of the country – Pearson was raised in Kanata – but were united during their studies at Bishops, and later bound by their deaths as a result of accidents and illness.

Jeffrey went to university with the Fontaine, Triggs, Pearson and Teehan, but

grew up in Kanata with Pearson. The two met in elementary school, went to Holy Trinity Catholic High School together, and were still friends after graduating from Bishops. She said that for members of the memorial group, organizing events like the golf tournament is about healing as much as it is about fundraising.

“For us it’s so important for everyone to come together in a positive way and to connect,” Jeffrey said. “The bottom line is ... something positive can come out of it in the sense that we’re helping other people with this foundation for years to come.”

The Four Shades of Purple Memorial Group was established in 2010 after the January 2010 deaths of Teehan and Pearson. Pearson, 26, died in a hit-and-run in Taiwan where he was working as a teacher.

All funds raised by the group support the Bishop’s Refugee Scholarship Program, which sponsors two refugee students each year, covering the cost of their second year at the school.

According to Jeffrey, the memorial group has raised more than $160,000 for the

The Four Shades of Purple Memorial Golf Tournament in Kanata on July 4 will pay homage to four Bishops students who died between 2010 and 2015, while raising funds to help refugee students pay for their post-secondary education.

scholarship program. Jeffrey hopes that, with the participation of Pearson’s friends and family in Ottawa, as well as help from local businesses that have donated raffle and auction prizes, the July 4 tournament will add $10,000 to that total. Education was important to Pearson, she said.

“Through Kyle’s connection – he was in education – I think a big part of it is that it’s nice to see that what we do here kind of connects back to Kyle’s education background,” Jeffrey said.

Among supporters of the memorial group expected to make an appearance at the tournament are Pearson’s parents, Jane and Bruce, who live in Kanata.

Jane Pearson said that her son’s friends and classmates have been instrumental not only in helping honour his memory, but in helping the family recover after his death.

“They’ve helped us through the most terrible time in our lives from the moment it happened,” she said. “They have been in constant touch with us and are always there to make sure we are OK … They have been just the most amazing group of young people that my son was so fortunate to be friends with.”

Like Jeffrey, Jane Pearson said she sees the significance of a foundation in her son’s honour supporting the education of students who might not otherwise have the means to pay for it.

“For Kyle, education was extremely important,” she said. “He was a teacher. So the fact that this scholarship is in their names goes to education, he would be extremely proud and honoured to have his name with the other boys on that.”

TWO THE PARKWAY BEAVERBROOK

WHY OWNING A HOUSE IN WEST OTTAWA IS GOOD BUT LIVING IN A BEAVERBROOK CONDO WILL BE GREAT! JANET AND JUDY

“ OCTOBER CAN’T COME SOON ENOUGH!

“

e enjoy living in the forested suburbs of Kanata with beautiful backyard gardens but our new condo in Beaverbrook is the right fit for us going forward. We are moving from one beautiful space to another.

It’s time to leave the yard work behind us and enjoy the outdoors without having to work in them first. October can’t come soon enough!

e are happy residents in the exclusive Tweedsmuir on the Park adult community in Kanata Lakes. But then when this condo popped up we couldn’t resist. It’s just as nice but doesn’t have stairs! We are thrilled to have bought a condo where we still have space to continue our family traditions—we will just have more time for them now. Our unit is big enough for the grandkids to sleep over! If we bought a comparable condo downtown, it would have cost us $50-60K more.

Beaverbrook has everything. I walk to the senior’s center for my Zumba class, and I can walk to the library with my grandchildren. Life is sweet when it’s simple.

Ontario commits $1 billion to second phase of LRT Brier Dodge brier.dodge@metroland.com

The provincial government has committed to funding Phase 2 of Ottawa’s light rail, including extensions to Trim Road and the airport.

Premier Kathleen Wynne was in Orléans at the Shenkman Arts Centre on June 3 to make the $1 billion funding announcement.

The province will provide a third of the funding necessary to complete Phase 2 of the city's LRT project, which includes extensions to Place d’Orléans, Bayshore, Baseline and Bowesville. The province will also pick up the tab for half of the cost to extend the rail lines from Place d’Orléans to Trim Road, and a two-stop spur to the airport.

In 2014, when Wynne made a campaign stop in Ottawa, she committed to funding Phase 2 of light rail if elected.

“When I announced support … we had already supported Stage 1,” she said on June 3. “But it was just Stage 1. The real test is if we keep going, to keep building.”

Area councillors and OttawaOrléans MPP Marie-France Lalonde have pushed to have light

rail extended all the way to Trim Road at the same time.

As well, the Ottawa International Airport has been pushing to have light rail transit extended out to the airport instead of stopping in the south end without a link to the airport.

Ontario's Minister of Transportation Steven Del Duca attended the June 3 funding announcement and said that Ottawa MPPs have “hunted me down at every opportunity” to lock down funding for Phase 2 of LRT. “This really is a game changer for Ottawa,” said Mayor Jim Watson, who was flanked by members of city council at the announcement. “We don’t put our shovels down in 2018.”

He said it didn’t make sense to stop digging once the necessary people and equipment are already in Ottawa working. It’s more cost effective to build more light rail all at once.

Once Phase 2 is built, it would put 70 per cent of Ottawa residents within five kilometres of light rail transit.

For Orléans, an extension to Trim Road would also make use of the existing park and ride at Trim

Ontario Premier Kathleen Wynne was in Orléans on June 3 to annouce $1 billion in funding for Phase 2 of Ottawa’s light rail transit.

Road instead of requiring all light rail transit users to board at Place d’Orléans.

Stage 2 is scheduled to begin construction in 2018, with a 2023 opening date at this point.

Orléans MP Andrew Leslie campaigned on his commitment to extend light rail all the way to Trim Road, and now it’s up to the fed-

eral government to deliver a similar commitment.

“It’s my job now to replicate the success,” Leslie said of the provincial announcement. “Between now and 2017, the pressure’s on me — and I like pressure.”

In March, Leslie told Metroland Media that the federal Liberal budget was good news for light rail

transit in Orléans and Ottawa.

The federal budget has $3.4 billion allocated to public transit infrastructure over the next three years through a new Public Transit Infrastructure Fund.

In the budget, it listed Ottawa light rail transit as an example of the type of project that could receive funding.

Bluesfest launches fashion line at Bayshore Melissa Murray mmurray@metroland.com

For some it’s all about the music, but for others it’s about the fashion.

Bluesfest is known for attracting fashion statements and this year, for the second time, the festival is launching a fashion line accompanied by a stepped up fashion campaign, after last year’s success, said Julie Beun, Bluesfest fashion director.

“Last year we gave it a shot and thought we would try it and Ottawa embraced it wholly. So this year we are building on the entire idea and creating additional things that will reflect the energy and spirit of Bluesfest in Ottawa,” Beun said.

The Bluesfest fashion line debuted at the Bayshore Mall on June 4, where the 17 different pieces, with a theme “Take me to a place I love,” were shown off down the catwalk. Stacey Bafi-Yeboa,

owner of KANIA – Luxury Canadian Sweatshirts, designed the collection. Pieces from the collection are available for purchase before the festival at Bayshore Mall.

“After the success of last year, in which music fans really loved the focus put on style and their own festival fashion, we decided to bring it back and to expand the scope.”

Bluesfest’s executive and creative director Mark Monahan said in a press release.

Beun said a lot of music festivals, from Coachella in California to the Osheaga Festival in Montreal, are embracing fashion as a key pillar of the festival.

“Bluesfest has recognized that fashion and music are intrinsically related. You don’t look at Jim Morrison without thinking about those leather pants,” Beun said.

Free fragrance and makeup sampling is mak-

ing a comeback in the fashion tents this year, and the Style Squad will be reporting on the best looks of the festival on social media. There will also be free henna, glitter tattoos and onsite hair styling.

Flowers Talk Tivoli, located on Richmond Road, will supply 3,000 free orchids at Bluesfest as part of the Loft

Urban Salon’s free braiding and twirling salon.

But most exciting, Beun said, is the festival’s search to find two faces of Bluesfest from those who post photos or a short video to the festival’s Twitter and Instagram accounts by June 25. The winners will be used in promotional material for the festival,

A weekly guide in legal matters

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

We are buying our first home. The bank insists that we add my father as a co-owner of the home in order to qualify for the mortgage amount we need. The entire down payment is coming from our savings and we will be making all the mortgage payments. I would rather not include my father as a co-owner. What are your suggestions?

Joint Tenancy and Tenancy in Common There are two ways in which two or more individuals can own a real property together. They can own it as either joint

er people the type of music they listen to by what they are wearing, and I don’t just mean a cowboy hat,” Beun said.

“I just love it. You see the girls in their long fringe vest and depending on the day, they have them with cut-off shorts and gladiator sandals or a pair of cowboy boots.”

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

Guarantor of the mortgage vs. being registered on title as owner Adding a person who is not going to be living at the property as a co-owner is generally not recommended, unless you are buying an investment property. You should discuss with your bank whether it would be sufficient to have your father as a guarantor on the mortgage, rather than a co-owner.

If the bank still insists on your father’s ownership, there are ways to structure the co-ownership in order to protect everyone’s interest and to minimize your father’s exposure to any tax related consequences of owning a second home.

receive makeovers, a swag bag and festival passes.

“It’s more of a personality search, a man and woman who best represent the spirit of Bluesfest,” Beun said.

It will be a search of all the styles and personalities, from those who love country music, to hip hop, to rock.

“You can identify to oth-

tenants or tenants in common. The main difference between the two is that people who own a property as joint tenants have a right of survivorship, meaning that if either one of them dies, his or her ownership share passes automatically to the other surviving joint tenants. This is in contrast with tenancy in common, which does not have a right of survivorship, meaning that the share of the deceased tenant in common becomes part of such person’s estate. With tenancy in common you can also specify a size of a share that each co-owner owns. For example, your father can own a 1% share of the home and you and your spouse the remaining 99% share, with all of you owning the home as tenants in common. This will ensure you and your spouse’s share becomes part of your estate rather than transferring to your father in case something happens to both of you.

Flipping for pancakes Firefighters at Station 84 in Corkery hold their annual pancake breakfast on June 4. Leading the flipping brigade (photo at right) is Deputy Cheif Kim Ayotte, far right. The station was packed with hungry residents ready for pancakes, bacon, coffee and more. The proceeds will purchase fireworks for Canada Day, just 22 days from now. Clarke and Scott Morphy (photo at left) share a moment on a firetruck. Scott is a volunteer at Station 84, and Clarke looks like he is ready to take the wheel at the earliest opportunity.

Period Project launches to stem the flow of poverty Campaign continues until June 23 Erin McCracken erin.mccracken@metroland.com

ERIN MCCRACKEN/METROLAND

Ottawa police Det. Sylvie Reaney holds donated tampons while standing beside a collection bin at police headquarters on Elgin Street. Reaney has launched the Period Project to encourage people to donate sanitary napkins and tampons for women in need.

Local Events Find Fin

WITHIN YOUR COMMUNITY

For Det. Sylvie Reaney, periods aren’t just something to think about once a month.

Once again supported by the Ottawa Police Service, the 27-year Ottawa policing veteran has launched the second phase of her campaign to collect sanitary napkins and tampons for women in Ottawa who can’t afford them and often go without as a result.

It’s called the Period Project, and it was spearheaded to coincide with the timing of International Menstrual Hygiene Day on May 28, which is held to boost awareness about the need for good menstrual hygiene and the challenges women face because of their periods as well as to challenge taboos around the subject.

And the fraud investigator is hoping Ottawa residents will show as much support in the coming weeks as they did during the first Women Helping Women campaign launched late last year, which was a purse drive that she and Heidi Dawson initiated, called the Purse Project.

In that campaign, people from across the city rallied behind the cause and dropped off more than 4,000 purses stuffed with supplies for women in need in Ottawa, ranging from toothbrushes to pads and tampons.

“I think it struck a chord with every female out there,”

Reaney said of the response.

“We all connect with it.”

She also took some of the donated items, filled a box with them and took it down to the jail cells at Ottawa police headquarters for women in custody.

“Spending a night in jail isn’t a good thing,” said Reaney. “And this was just a way to recognize their needs.

“We’re not there to judge you. We’re there to help you, show you some respect and dignity.”

Reaney didn’t want the Purse Project to be a onetime initiative, especially given the needs of financially vulnerable women struggling to feed themselves and their families, never mind paying for sanitary napkins for themselves.

This time around, purses are not being collected. Reaney wanted the emphasis to be on the sanitary hygiene products themselves since they are urgently needed at shelters and the Ottawa Food Bank.

Women Helping Women and the Ottawa Police Service are teaming up this time around with the food bank, which will also serve as a collection point for the products.

“Our supply of household products, which includes sanitary hygiene products, can run low as supporters don’t always know we accept these non-food items,” Samantha Ingram, communications coordinator at the Ottawa Food Bank, said in a statement. “Since approximately 35% of our clients

are women, this initiative is an excellent opportunity for us to collect these items and distribute them to women most in need.”

Reaney said she also wants the campaign to be about more than just giving at Christmas, “because periods continue on after Christmas.”

“Periods are a monthly thing, and the purses are going to last forever but the products in them don’t,” she said.

The hope is that the Period Project will also generate awareness about the needs of vulnerable women, whether they’re living on Ottawa’s streets, staying in shelters or living in their own homes but struggling to make ends meet.

Many of the donated items will go to area shelters, where many women find it embarrassing to have to ask for sanitary products, particularly when male staff members are on duty, Reaney explained. “They’re reluctant to approach a male and ask for a tampon,” she said.

Collection bins are now stationed in the entryways of the downtown police headquarters building, at 474 Elgin St., and stations in Kanata at 211 Huntmar Dr., and Orléans at 3343 St. Joseph Blvd.

They will remain in place until the campaign closes on June 23. Products can also be dropped off at the Ottawa Food Bank at 1317 Michael St. For more about Women Helping Women and the Period Project, go to facebook. com/WHWPP.

52 West Carleton Review - Thursday, June 9, 2016

Arnprior’s shop local program is continuing well into its second year with growing interest each month.

March had 236 cards entered in the draw and the winner was Edmund Bartell. The April draw featured 256 cards and the winner was Sarah Seegobin-Reznick .

The Love Love Local pro-

gram, sponsored by the Town of Arnprior and the Greater Arnprior Chamber of Commerce, encourages area residents to shop locally by making them eligible for the monthly draw for a $100 gift card if they fill up their cards with 10 stamps at any of the 65 participating businesses.

“By doing business locally,

you not only get personal service and real value, you also help strengthen our local community and economy,” says Arnprior marketing and economic development officer Lindsay Wilson.

For more on the program, visit Arnprior Town Hall or visit the town website at www. arnprior.ca.

West end author publishes second children’s book Scott Campbell scottcampbell@metroland.com

A family reunion can inspire a book.

At least it did for Jennifer Perlin. She is set to launch her second book, titled Konrad, It’s Not a Caribou. The idea came to her before she even planned to write it.

It’s been over two years since Konrad, I Will Find You has been published.

The tale came from Perlin’s son, Konrad, and his anxiety about being left at pre-school.

“I love being asked to do readings at schools and different events,” said Perlin, “when the story can capture the attention of a room full of children. Since publishing the event I have enjoyed meeting other local authors and trying to grow as a writer.”

Konrad, It’s Not a Caribou was born from a family reunion, when Perlin was watching her son playing with his cousins.

“It reminded me of the times I spent with my cousins as a child, and how fun it was to sleep in the same room, telling stories,” said Perlin. “I wanted to capture these

pivotal childhood memories in a fun and exciting way. I also wanted to feature some Canadian animals, to encourage a love of nature in kids.”

Like in the first book, Perlin collaborated with Jay Lutes on the illustrations.

“I gave Jay some notes, but he took all the ideas and made them even more amazing,” she said.

“His attention to detail and creativity really makes every illustration a joy to look at. We developed a great working relationship for (the first book) and it was just as much fun to work together again.”

Konrad is well aware the books are about him.

He’s only five years old, so he’s not embarrassed by the attention yet, said Perlin.

“This book also features Lucy, Konrad’s little sister. While she may not be in the title, she has a big role in the Caribou book.”

The second crack at a story proved a bit difficult and required a lot more fine-tuning.

“I worked closely with Roxanne McLaren, owner of Another Chapter

Publishing,” said Perlin. “She helped me try and capture the real theme of the story and to try and focus the plot.”

Of course, when authors reach their second book, there’s always that potential

for a trilogy or other ideas to expand their stories.

“Not too sure yet what the plan is, but you never know what Konrad might inspire as he gets older.”

There is a launch party

planned on June 12 for Konrad, It’s Not a Caribou (available in French and English) from 1 to 3 p.m. at Roger Saint Denis School, 186 Barrow Cres. The launch party will include crafts, games,

snacks and door prizes.

The book will be available online through the publisher at anotherchapterpublishing. com. It will also be available at Tag Along Toys in Kanata, and Kanata Chapters.

QCH mental health ward renovations closer to reality Megan DeLaire mdelaire@metroland.com

The section of the Queensway Carleton Hospital that houses its mental health ward has not been updated since long before advocates started to challenge the stigma around mental illness.

But the hospital is working to change that, and it got a little closer to reaching its goal on May 16 with a $100,000 donation from the Ottawa Senators Foundation for its Hopes Rising campaign for improved mental health services.

The campaign’s honourary chairs,

Senators defenceman Chris Phillips and his wife Erin Phillips, and Do It for Daron founders Luke and Stephanie Richardson presented the donation in a gathering at the hospital on May 16.

“Ottawa Senators have been long time supporters and friends of QCH,” said Queensway Carleton Hospital Foundation president Melanie Adams.

“They live and work in our community and have their babies in our hospital…and it’s an organization that’s been touched with mental health very close to home, and so they’re passionate about the work

that’s being done to support many mental health initiatives in our community.”

The Hopes Rising campaign was launched in February to support an extensive renovation of the hospital’s aging mental health ward. It aims to raise $5 million of the $9.7 that the renovation is estimated to cost.

In addition to improving the hospital’s outdated mental health facility – for the first time since its construction in 1976 – the project will enhance the hospital’s emergency programs and services, and strengthen connections to community mental health support services.

Both couples – the Chris and Erin Phillips and the Richardsons – took the opportunity to share stories of their own experiences with mental illness. Phillips referred to friends who had lost their battle with mental illness, and friends who are still fighting.

Luke Richardson, a former Ottawa Senators player, and wife Stephanie reminded the crowd that their daughter Daron had quietly struggled with mental illness before her death by suicide in 2010.

While the ward hasn’t changed much in its 40 years, its role in the community has as the demand for mental health services at the hospital has continued to grow. The hospital has seen a 28 per cent increase in mental health admissions since 2012, and a 25 per cent increase in patients with mental diagnosis through the emergency department in that same period.

“We need more,” said Chris Phillips during the May 16 gathering.

“We need better facilities here, we need more programs, we need more emergency services. The people here are doing an amazing job in all they

Local health integration network endorses $9.7-million redevelopment Continued from page 55

Both identified mental health services as an essential aspect of healthcare, and pledged their support for the hospital and its campaign.

The Ottawa Senators Founda-

tion’s $100,000 donation is the third major contribution made to the hospital’s Hopes Rising campaign since it was launched in February.

Adams announced the campaign’s first contribution – a $1-million donation from mental health

advocate Barbara Crook and her husband Dan Greenberg – on the day the campaign was launched.

In April, the Garrett family – namesakes of the hospital’s Garrett Family Surgical Centre – donated another $500,000. Carey and Nancy

Planning staff take heat over duplicate street names Jennnifer McIntosh jennifer.mcintosh@metroland.com

What’s in a name?

Planning staff took some heat from Kanata South Coun. Allan Hubley last month over the fact that there are still a number of roads that need to be renamed as a result of the amalgamation of Ottawa and the surrounding municipalities.

Acting general manager of the planning department, Michael Mizzi, said the process requires a lot of back and forth between the ward councillor and the community.

College Ward Coun. Rick Chiarelli outlined the hullabaloo around the name change for Robertson Road in Bells Corners in 2011. Almost 2,000 people voiced concerns about the change, he said.

“Some people didn’t understand the need to change confusing duplicate street names,” Chiarelli said.

Committee chair Jan Harder said the fault isn’t entirely with staff.

She said some councillors may delay a name change because of concern over how residents will react.

Frank Bidin, chief building official for the city, said the work should be done in the first quarter of 2017.

There were 150 street names to be changed last year. Bidin said there are about 45 where the city has yet to start the process.

Chiarelli said it may be difficult for residents to understand the reasons for doing it, which in turn has slowed the process.

Chiarelli said the delay may be a good thing because now the streets can honour trailblazing women.

In the fall, Glouceste-Southgate Coun. Diane Deans and Chiarelli submitted the names of 11 women who they deemed to be trailblazers. The names have been vetted and pre-approved through the city’s commemorative street naming process.

Any street names in Deans’ or

Chiarelli’s wards that need to be changed due to name duplication can now be renamed in honour of an accomplished Canadian woman, considered “innovative, determined and historically important,” the councillors said in a joint press release on Oct. 27.

TRAILBLAZERS

The names of women trailblazers that have since been selected represent important firsts for women in many different fields: • Josephine Dandurand, vicepresident of the National Council of Women of Canada.

• Leone Norwood Farrell, a key figure in the mass production of the polio vaccine.

• Allie Vibert Douglas, the first female Canadian astrophysicist.

• Elsie Knott, who became the first Canadian woman First Nation chief.

• Agnes Macphail, the first female

MP. • Elizabeth Muriel Gregory MacGill, the first woman in the world to become an aircraft designer.

• Maud Menten, one of the first women to earn a medical doctorate • Lady Mary Pellatt, the first chief commissioner of Girl Guides

of Canada. ª Hilda Ranscombe, leader and creator of Canada’s most famous women’s hockey team, the Preston Rivulettes.

• Jennie Kidd Trout, the first Canadian woman to become a licensed medical doctor.

• Eileen Vollick, the first Canadian woman to become a licensed pilot.

All road users urged to ‘share the road’ In May, Safer Roads Ottawa (SRO) partners focused on motorcycle safety.

The enforcement effort was aimed at drivers who make unsafe lane changes and excessive noise and engage in speeding, race or stunt driving.

The SRO reminds all road users and motorists to continue to watch for motorcycles, as they can be harder to see on roadways. Between May 25 and June 1, there were five collisions involving motorcycles in Ottawa.

Motorcycle riders are reminded to: • Ride predictably and defensively; • Do not pass vehicles within the lane; • Ride in a staggered formation; • Keep a safe distance between yourself and other vehicles.

“All road users are responsible for following the rules of the road. Whether you are driving, cycling or walking, give it your full attention; make road safety a part of your behaviour every day,” said Ottawa Police Traffic Sergeant Mark Gatien.

Summer weather attracts a variety of road users. For everyone’s safety, share the road, pay attention and follow the rules of the road, he

New sexual assault training rolls out for Ottawa patrol officers Erin McCracken erin.mccracken@metroland.com

Twenty-five Ottawa police patrol officers are arming themselves with an arsenal of new tools and specialized information aimed at bolstering how they investigate sexual assault cases and interact with victims of sex crimes.

The police department’s sexual assault and child abuse section rolled out a new three-day intensive course for front-line officers May 25, known as sexual assault response officer training.

“Their first response heavily impacts how the investigation moves forward, so we’re going to give them more information, specifically towards sexual violence calls,” said Staff Sgt. Angela McDade, head of the SACA unit. “Our goal with that is victim-centred investigations.”

Topics such as scene management and victim sensitivity will be taught by experts from the Ottawa Hospital, a nurse practitioner, the police department’s victim crisis and hightech crime units and a public educator with the Sexual Assault Support Centre, among others.

A list of potential improvements was developed after the police service consulted with a number of ser-

vice providers in late 2014, including the Ottawa Rape Crisis Centre, the Sexual Assault Network, Crime Prevention Ottawa and others.

“When the patrol officer goes to those scenes, we’re hoping with that additional training that the initial response, their lens won’t be narrow, that they will be focused on the victim,” said McDade.

It will also give the officers more in-depth understanding of the challenges involved in investigating sexual assault files “so they will be really tuned in to what’s required to prove cases,” she said. “That victim sensitivity is huge.”

In some cases, victims don’t want police to investigate the crime against them or even speak with the perpetrator, sometimes for fear of reprisal. As well, some are not willing to go to hospital to receive care following an assault.

But it’s important officers ensure victims understand how important medical care is, that they connect with the supports they may need, as well as offer them assistance in going to the hospital and making sure they have a ride to a safe place after they receive medical care.

“We want that sensitivity,” McDade said.

How victims are treated by in-

vestigators is crucial for the victim, never mind for the investigation.

“There’s a lot of emotional trauma,” she said. “It may not be present at the time. We’re learning a lot about neurobiology in that what you see at the time may be very different three days or a month later for a victim.”

The Ottawa police SACA unit has wanted to developed this specialized training for patrol officers for a number of years. Staff sergeants before McDade had it on their to-do lists, and McDade adopted the priority after she began managing the 17-member unit three years ago.

To get it off the ground, other police agencies were looked at, including specialized training provided by the Durham Regional Police Service.

The response to the new Ottawa course was swift and the available spots quickly filled up. McDade said a second course will be offered in September, and it may be offered at least once a year in future.

Those officers who take it may one day become prime candidates for the SACA unit. Their police work following the course will be reviewed and in five to seven years they may want to join the team, said McDade.

Unlike the specially trained

have been assaulted by someone they know, whether they are an acquaintance, a family member, someone in a position of authority or a co-worker, McDade said.

Sexual violence remains underreported. An estimated 10 per cent of victims report sexual crimes, McDade said.

That’s why education and training are essential.

Victims need to know that sexual assault is never their fault, and everyone needs to know that sexual assault includes unwanted touching, groping, kissing, hugging, molestation and penetration. The other message the unit is sharing is that without consent, a sexual assault has been committed.

“I think with that type of awareness and people understand the consequences and that their behaviour is criminal, maybe it will reduce the offending,” McDade said.

“Changing attitudes and behaviours doesn’t happen overnight. It is long-entrenched. It has a lot of history behind it,” she said, but added that social media is giving more people the opportunity to talk about sexual violence.

“People used to have to stay in silence. And I hope that the future will be different.”

SACA investigators, other officers are challenged to know what is entailed in a sexual assault investigation. But that’s where “more education more awareness, more training” can make all the difference, she said.

“It’s our way of being able to give something to the patrol officers that we already know,” said McDade. “I had no idea until I came into the unit as to the type of offences, the amount of offences.”

AWARENESS CAMPAIGN

The launch of the new course just happened to take place in May, which is Sexual Assault Awareness Month.

The SACA section recently issued a public advisory urging people “to stop the cycle” of sexual violence, explaining that anyone — no matter their gender, age, race or cultural background — can become a victim.

McDade’s team of officers investigates a couple of hundred files at any given time, and often issue media releases about sexual crimes in order to garner tips, warn people and to seek the public’s help in identifying a suspect.

Stranger assaults do occur, but the vast majority of cases that are investigated involve victims who

New look at Westar Farms for 2016 horse show season John Curry john.curry@metroland.com

There’s a new look at Westar Farms for this 2016 horse show season.

Gone is the two storey announcer’s tower which had stood for over 20 years beside the main show ring, right in the middle of the grounds.

Known as “Old Faithful,” the tower was recently demolished thanks to a giant backhoe – three swipes of its bucket and the tower was levelled.

This spring a bigger central “people space” called “The Community Hub” is being developed where everyone will be able to sit in the shade of a big tent and watch the events or simply take a break while having a bite to eat and relax.

Last fall work began on two new sand show and warm-up rings with the work continuing this spring.

At its shows, Westar Farms will

now also have a small trade fair with the mobile shops of two local horse tack and rider equipment stores.

There will also be an information area about the horse show taking place and about the Westar Farms riding program.

Westar Farms has been hosting horse shows for more than 25 years, always focussed on improving the farm and its show facilities.

Westar Farms, located on Fernbank Road west of Stittsville, is hosting a pony and horse show this coming weekend, Saturday, June 11 and Sunday, June 12.

Four competition rings will be in action, featuring riders from eight years old and up in a variety of classes.

These will include hunter classes which are based on the style and obedience of a horse over a course or jumps; equitation in which style and accuracy of the rider is the

focus (this is similar to figures in figure skating); and jumper classes where speed and accuracy are the deciding factors with the competitor who completes the course in the fastest time with the fewest faults being the winner.

This weekend, June 11 and 12 at Westar Farms, two levels of showing will happen each day.

At the Bronze or regional level, participants are awarded ribbons in every class.

In the Silver or provincial level, called Trillium in Ontario, ribbons will be presented along with prize money in some classes.

A champion and reserve champion will be recognized in each division which is a group of related classes.

In addition, competitors are going to be encouraged to form teams of three and combine the points earned in order to win special ribbons.

The top three teams in both the hunter and jumper categories on each show day will receive special prizes.

There will also be recognition given to those who earn the highest equitation scores combined with either their hunter or jumper points.

Everyone is welcome to attend this weekend’s shows at Westar Farms, with the action in the rings taking place from 9 a.m. to about 4 p.m. each day. There is no admission charge and refreshments will be available on the grounds.

Spectators are urged to park along the front of the farm. Spectators are also encouraged to bring along a lawn chair.

Walk up the central maple tree lined laneway at the farm and find a shaded spot from which to enjoy the show.

This weekend’s shows at Westar Farms are just the beginning of the

season at Westar Farms.

The annual “Horse Lovers’ Weekend” Trillium and Bronze Horse Show will take place on Saturday, July 9 and Sunday, July 10.

A “Jump Into Fall” Bronze Horse Show will take place on Sunday, Sept. 18.

In addition, a Summer Schooling Series will be running monthly on Tuesday evenings at Westar Farms, with the next such show taking place this coming Tuesday, June 14 from 4 p.m. to 8 p.m.

These small scale introductory level shows provide an opportunity for riders and horses new to horse showing to learn about competition in a relaxed and encouraging environment.

Participants are mostly from the immediate area including Westar riders as well as those from other local riding schools or training stables. Spectators are most welcome at any of these schools.

Massive machines coming to Ottawa for 150th national birthday bash Michelle Nash Baker michelle.nash@metroland.com

What’s a national 150th birthday celebration without a large-scale dragon and massive spider?

Well, thanks to Canada’s 2017 organization committee, Canadians won’t have to wonder what a 150th birthday celebration without them is like.

The committee announced on June 1 at the Canadian Museum of Nature that a large-scale dragon, known as Long Ma, and a giant spider, Kumo Ni, will take over a downtown Ottawa street next summer with the goal that the extraordinary machines will help both local residents and tourists alike ring in Canada’s 150th birthday bash.

The machines, which are indeed a sight to see as the dragon breathes fire and the spider’s eight legs are enormous, are exactly what Canada and Ottawa need for the big birthday celebration, according to Guy Laflamme, executive director of the Ottawa 2017 organizing committee.

“It will change the way people view Ottawa,” Laflamme said at the Ottawa 2017 announcement.

“This will not only be a Canadian first, but a first for North America.”

The company behind the curtain of these massive machines is La Machine, a French production company based in Nantes, France.

Laflamme met with the company in 2015, knowing that they would be able to offer a captivating component of the 150 celebration’s programming.

“Their majestic creatures and style of roving theatre will enchant and create cherished, unforgettable moments,” he said.

The exact location is still yet to be decided, but the entirely free show is set to go on for four to five days, 24 hours a day, to the tune of an orchestra. A team of artists, technicians and theatre designers will be operating the machines.

La Machine constructs the unusual theatre objects with a team of artists, technicians and theatre designers.

“Taking a production of this magnitude to the streets, where a collective imagination, an intangible heritage and a shared identity come into being, is not a trivial matter. A nation’s identity and culture stems from these grassroots,” François Delarozière, artistic director of La Machine said in a statement.

“We hope our art form will connect with and inspire Ottawa residents and all Canadians in 2017.”

Also announced June 1 is that Bell will be the premier partner for the 2017 birthday celebrations.

A Canadian company founded in 1880 — only 13 years after confederation, the largest private sector company in Ottawa, Bell said it is proud to be a

Along with Bell, the Ottawa 2017 organizing committee announced CIBC as its lead sponsor in May. According to the committee, Ottawa 2017 will boost tourism and generate a large economic impact for the city, projecting it will have more than a $230 million impact on GDP and generate more than 3,000 jobs for the province.

ESL, arts and support staff funding all questioned at public school board Megan DeLaire megan.delaire@metroland.com

The first public consultation meeting surrounding the public school board’s upcoming budget left board staff grappling with the questions and concerns of parents, teachers and trustees on May 30.

Among top concerns raised by delegates were the need for English as a second language funding and the importance of the extracurricular and creative arts program threatened by funding cuts. Protesters also gathered outside of the school board’s Greenbank Road office

prior to the meeting to rally against proposed cuts to support staff positions.

The meeting was the first of several public consultations that will invite delegates to join the budget debate before trustees vote on the budget on June 27.

Tasked with recovering $9.3-million in order to balance its next budget, staff recommended in a May 10 report that the board eliminate 47 administrative and support staff positions, in addition to the 38.8 academic staff cuts outlined in an earlier report.

The most recently proposed cuts to full-time-

equivalent positions include the loss of 16.5 educational assistants, 10 early childhood educators, one psychologist and 11.2 school office staff.

The May 10 report argued that the 85 job cuts would be spread across the board in an effort to soften the blow to students and staff.

“Efforts have been focused on developing a budget that staff believes minimizes the negative impacts on students,” the report said. “In addition, the reductions reflected in the staff recommended budget attempt to minimize the impact that these decisions will have on staff and staffing levels.”

But Beacon Hill-Cyrville Coun. Tim Tierney, who spoke during the meeting, said he is especially concerned about how the cuts could affect the Syrian refugee students in the board’s schools.

“I have concerns with regards to the cuts to ESL, specifically in the draft budget, and specific to the region of the Donald Street area where we have the highest concentration of Syrian refugees in the entire city,” Tierney said, adding that 100 Syrian refugee students currently attend Carson Grove elementary.

Tierney praised the efforts of Ottawa residents to sponsor and welcome Syrian refugees, but said he is concerned about the level of community support that refugee families will rely on once federal accommodation funding for those families runs out.

“Over the next year, we’re not going to know the effects, and we have to keep this in mind in regards to federal funding,” he said. “That being said, I know all levels of government are feeling the pinch right now, and ask you to keep this in mind when you’re making decisions around the board.”

Shirley Seward, board chair and trustee for the zone covering River ward, echoed Tierney’s concern that ESL staff levels do not reflect the recent influx of refugee students.

“With respect to English as a second language, we’ve talked about this before and said that if the numbers go up, in terms of new immigrants coming in, we would be able to adjust it in October,” Seward said. “However

Beacon Hill-Cyrville Coun. Tim Tierney was among the delegates who attended a May 30 Ottawa Carleton District School Board meeting to share their concerns and questions about the board’s draft 2016-17 budget and its implications for staff and students. enrolment has already gone up by 100 ... We’ve increased our enrolment and we haven’t increased our number of teachers or English as a second language teachers.”

Several delegates – including advocates for the board’s extracurricular creative arts program and parents of students enrolled in it – spoke in defence of the paid arts program.

Currently managed – though not subsidized– by the board and hosted at its schools, the program is facing a funding elimination that would shift the responsibility of its management from board staff to its arts instructors.

Delegates at the May 30 meeting worried that the cuts would nonetheless threaten the program, which offers paid music, theatre and visual art lessons to students on school property, outside of school hours.

The May 10 staff report said ending funding to the program would save the board $48,000. The report said that the program has operated at a deficit for several years.

Donna Blackburn, trustee for the zone covering the Barrhaven and KnoxdaleMerivale areas, defended the board’s suggestion to end its management of the program, saying that the board needs to focus on its basic mandate.

“The bottom line is we have to do our core business, and our core business is educating JK to Grade 12, during school time,” Blackburn said after the meeting.

“That’s all we can afford to do. If we were flush with money, I’d like to offer this ... but we’re not. And we can’t do all these extras anymore.”

In an effort to offset the impact of budget cuts on support staff across the board, Shawn Menard, trustee for the zone covering Vanier, proposed a set of budget amendments that included taking $1.4 million in funding from school infrastructure and human resources and reinvesting it into staff.

•Reduce occasional teacher budget by $300,000 •Reduce planning and facilities, custodial services, trades and maintenance, facilities management, design and construction – supplies and services budget by $100,000 •Reduce human resource staff development budget by $400,000 •Reduce business and learning technology supplies and services budget by $600,000 •Restore eight full time equivalent education assistants, costing $426,400 •Restore six full time equivalent school office positions in elementary schools, costing $263,400 •Restore a one per cent reduction in school budgets, costing $85,000 •Restore the community outreach officer position, costing $47,200 •Restore two full time equivalent English as a second language teachers, costing $195,800 •Restore 0.8 full time equivalent social workers,

costing $74,800 •Restore one full time equivalent psychologist, costing $104,200 Aside from conceding that the board could afford to reduce the budget for planning and facilities, custodial services, trades and maintenance, facilities management, design and construction, supplies and services by $100,000, comments submitted by board staff rejected the rest of the proposed amendments.

Blackburn said she feels that the scale of the amendments is not realistic.

“The notion that we can just take $600,000 from business and learning technology is just untenable,” she said. “We can’t do that. And what’s happened is in the past is we’ve done that, and now our computer system is way behind, and we’re at risk.

Technology changes regularly. We’re a big organization, and we rely on technology.”

Blackburn said she is not opposed to moving some funding, but $600,000 is not the type of compromise she believes is possible.

“I’m hoping in the debate that we can come to look for some compromises,” she said. “And that is traditionally what this board has done.”

Another public delegation budget meeting was scheduled for June 6, after press deadline, with the debate among trustees expected to continue during meetings on June 13 and 20.

Approval of the budget is expected to take place on June 27.

Protesters condemn proposed OCDSB job cuts at May 30 rally Megan DeLaire mdelaire@metroland.com

A crowd of at least 50 people formed outside of the Ottawa Carleton District School Board’s office on Greenbank Road on May 30 to rally against staff cuts the board says will be necessary to balance its budget.

The group represented school support staff including educational assistants, early childhood educators, office staff, psychologists and social workers.

Among them were supporters from several labour groups including the Ontario Secondary School Teachers’ Federation, the Elementary Teachers’ Federation of Ontario and CUPE. “The reason we’re here tonight is to talk about cuts, and about job cuts, and about a trend … of an attack, a consistent attack, on support staff jobs in this board,” said Dan Maxwell, district president for the Ontario Secondary School Teachers’ Federation and one of the rally’s organizers.

With signs bearing messages like Cuts Hurt Kids and Working Conditions Equal Learning Conditions, protesters waited near the

Tasked with recovering $9.3-million in order to balance its next

budget, staff recommended in a May 10 report that the board eliminate 47 administrative and support staff positions, in addition to the 38.8 full-time-equivalent academic staff cuts outlined in an earlier report.

Those most recently proposed cuts to full-time-equivalent positions include the loss of 16.5 educational assistants, 11.25 school office staff, 10 early childhood educators, and one psychologist.

The May 10 report argued that the 85 widespread cuts are spread equitably across the board, not targeting any particular department or area. But among the protesters outside the board office, many were concerned about the effect the cuts will have on staff that keep their jobs, and the quality of education they are able to deliver to students.

“All these cuts will not only impact staff, but also our students,” said Nancy Akehurst, president of the Educational Support Professionals bargaining unit of the OSSTF. “Support staff have been cut over and over throughout the years.

We are at the bare bones now. Who will be left to perform all those duties? Only those who remain.”

Emerson chokes on his own joke at the table The two chokecherry bushes just before the West Hill began were in full bloom. Soon they would be heavy with the little berries and would become jelly. The jars would help fill our cellar shelves, already starting to show the results of Mother’s pickling and preserves.

Not only did I love chokecherry jelly, spread on fresh buttered bread, but I often went to the two trees and popped a few in my mouth, enjoying the tart taste of the little berries.

My brother Emerson, whose mission in life seemed to be to make my life miserable, one day told me something that just about ruined my love of chokecherries.

“Did you hear what happened to the Kallies boys second cousin, once removed?

Well, he ate a handful of chokecherries and took a few sips of milk, and he choked to death.”

Mary Cook’s Memories MARY COOK

I figured I was safe because even though we had an ample supply of milk in the farm, I hated it. I was sure I could smell cow off a glass of milk, and to get milk into me, Mother had to stir in a spoon of cocoa and a few drops of vanilla. Only then could I get the glass of milk down.

So I wasn’t likely to drop dead from eating a few chokecherries. I assured Emerson if he planned on getting rid of me any time soon, it wouldn’t be from eating chokecherries and then drinking milk!

That afternoon, Mother made a batch of jelly from what Audrey and I were able

to get off the bushes. The house was full of the wonderful smell of boiling berries.

And then supper was on the table. And there was a bowl of fresh jelly. Emerson was sitting across from me on the bench that ran under the grape arbour window, and he spotted the jelly as soon as I did. I wasn’t sure what he was up to, but there was no doubt in my mind he was up to something.

The fruit nappies sat in the middle of the table, and Emerson took one and helped himself to a few spoons full of jelly.

He slathered a good help-

ing of jelly on his slice of buttered bread, and crammed most of it into his mouth.

Then he took a good swig of milk. Within seconds his eyes rolled into the back of his head, and he started to cough, just like he did when he had the gripe in the winter time.

Mother stayed remarkably calm, and in a voice she reserved for the times when she lost her patience, asked Emerson what was wrong.

“It’s the chokecherry jelly mixed with the milk,” he said, gasping for breath. “I told Mary this could happen and she wouldn’t believe me.”

His face was beet red from the coughing, and he looked like he was going to slide off the bench and under the table.

Everett and Earl, sitting on each side of him, didn’t lose a beat. They kept on eating their nappies of jelly as if their brother choking to

death was a common occurrence.

Mother finally put down her spoon, and her voice was now the one she used when she was about to give one of us a cuff on the ear. “So you

Emerson could only nod.

“Well that’s mighty strange,” Mother said. “Because that’s blackberry jelly you’re eating. A bottle left over from last year. The chokecherry jelly has to settle before we eat it.”

Everett and Earl both gave Emerson a poke in the ribs,

my sister Audrey was laughing so hard she had to leave the table, and Father got up and went to his rocking chair and lit his pipe.
