After a year of fundraising and learning about the global issues of clean drinking water, St. Michael School, Corkery students were able to put the money raised right in the hands of their chosen charity’s founder. The Ryan’s Well Foundation is a Canadian charitable organization providing effective and sustainable solutions to the water crisis in the poorest regions of the worlds’ developing countries. The foundation grew from the spirit of a driven six-year-old boy named Ryan Hreljac. Hreljac was inspired to take action as a Grade Derek Dunn/Metroland 1 student when he learned of the devastating consequences for people without access to safe drinking water. He was remarkably determined as he succeeded in rallying his community to help him raise A Company of Fools’ actors gain an audience at a recent Carp Farmers’ Market day to promote the funds needed to build one well in Uganda, their upcoming Shakespearean performance. Geoff McBride will play Bottom and Catriona Leger will be Titania in A Midsummer Night’s Dream. The curtain goes up at various parks across the Africa.

Well won’t run dry thanks to St. Michael’s donation Since then, Ryan’s Well, along with its local partners, have been providing access to clean water, sanitation and hygiene education in the poorest regions of developing countries. Hreljac, himself dropped by St. Michael, Corkery on Thursday, June 8 and shook hands, spoke with students and received the donation of around $3,000 with much gratitude. “It’s amazing to connect with youth who are passionate and engaged, and be able to say thank you to them,” Hreljac told the West Carleton Review. “Without the schools, we would be able to do this.” The project started out of teacher BettyLou Milne’s Grade 2 class — although roots were started the year before when she taught Grade 1. “Students brought me some information on Ryan’s Well,” she said. “So we planned on a clean water fundraising project.” The project started over Lent. Students learned more about Ryan’s Well and held fundraising event throughout
the rest of the year. There was a Pyjama Day; a Gum Day that raised about $750 and a math event referred to as a Coin War that ended up raising $1,200. “The classes just went crazy for that event,” Milne said. “That was really fun. It was a math game and an interesting challenge. Grade 6 students even developed a water filtration system based on Ryan’s Well’s systems.” Some students even organized their own fundraising events such as one of the
school’s special needs students who hosted a lemonade stand in the school’s staff room. The journey St. Michael students took throughout the project mirrors the one 28-yearold Hreljac took from young student to philanthropist. “It’s really exciting for us,” Principal Martha Palmer said. “It’s been a schoolwide focus for us this year. “It’s been wonderful for us to motivate students and witness how a young student can affect change in the world and try to make the world a better place.” Jake Davies/Metroland Hreljac says anyone can do St. Michael, Corkery students present a cheque to Ryan’s Well founder Ryan Hreljac on it. “You don’t have to be super Thursday, June 8. From left are Carson Paquette, Allan Lytle, Ryan Hreljac, Brooke Laroda, smart or super articulate to Mattea Bimm, Mackenzie Stanton, Ben Lytle and James Lajeunesse. make a difference,” he said. “My project began as a Lent project too. I failed at it, but just kept going. It was not just my project, but my school’s and my community’s. “You don’t have to wait to make a difference. I was kind of FIND intimidated when I was a kid. I thought you had to be an adult EVERYTHING Ryan’s Well founder is to do stuff like that. Remember, introduced to St. Michael’s, when you find something you YOU WANT Corkery students to rousing care about, do something about applause. it, even if it’s small.” IN A

Dolan is a lifetime member and has sat on the executive council for several terms, including the last four. He says he just wants to stay the course. “I just want to carry on the work of the legion and promote the legion to our community — from our seniors to our youth,” Dolan said. “We’re fully supporting our community outreach program this summer with our community gardens. We make plots available free of charge. Sustain West Carleton co-ordinator Kate Garvie is going to assist with building a rain catching system with a solar powered pump to help make the project more environmentally sound.” Dolan hopes to continue on the tradition of the legion’s TGIF dinners which he calls an “endeavour for the community to be able to come out for dinner at a reasonable price.” The legion will also continue to support veterans in the community and in Ottawa. “One of our main, ongoing objectives will be the support of the Perley and Rideau Veterans’ Health Centre,” Dolan said. “We will provide veterans’ comforts.

He mentioned outgoing president Scott worked herself ragged try-

Intimidation won’t silence media
A
group of disgruntled city councillors in Brampton, Ont., seem to be confusing freedom of the press with freedom from the press. Angry with recent coverage by the local newspaper, some councillors are proposing a motion to scrutinize the media’s questioning of elected officials. It’s a thinly veiled attempt to intimidate reporters. The motion calls for all media inquiries to be posted on the city website along with provided responses. Further, councillors want future meeting agendas to include time to respond to media coverage. Meanwhile, at least one member of Brampton council has also taken to Twitter, suggesting the local paper isn’t providing “real news.” This is all in reaction to assertive reporting that is critical of the city’s leadership. Councillors say they have put the press on notice. Such a statement demonstrates a blatant disregard for, or ignorance of, the checks and balances already strongly entrenched in the Canadian media system. Accountability starts with the news outlet itself. Complaints can be made directly to a journalist, editor or publisher. If the response is unsatisfactory, individuals can contact the press council. The National NewsMedia Council deals
with matters concerning fairness of coverage, relevance, balance and accuracy. Its members (including this newspaper) abide by its decisions. It’s a free and open process for the public. When media make a mistake, we own it very publicly. That’s not something everyone can say. And there is the law. Canada has very strict libel laws. These laws protect the reputation of individuals and organizations from false and derogatory remarks. Media are bound by these laws. These councillors forget that media are not accountable to elected officials. Media are accountable to the public, the same group whose money these councillors are spending. Ultimately this is about control. Councillors are trying to stifle critical voices and control our free, independent and responsible media. That’s a scary development. It won’t work. Metroland is putting Brampton’s elected officials on notice: media will not be intimidated by these thinly disguised bullying tactics. EDITOR’S NOTE: This editorial has been shared by the Brampton Guardian and is running in all Metroland East newspapers.
Former U.S. embassy building should be put to good use
I
f you’ve lived in Ottawa for a long time, you will have a predictable reaction to reports that something will finally happen at the old U.S. Embassy on Wellington Street. About time, you will say. Indeed. That’s a beautiful building and it is a shame that it has sat empty and unused so long. By the time something is put there it will have been at least 20 years since it was last occupied. It has been neglected for so many years that you would think it was on LeBreton Flats. One of the benefits of finding a use for the former embassy is that it will bring another historical attraction to what used to be known as Confederation Boulevard, another attraction to walk to. Ottawa, as we know, has many fine museums and other structures, including the Parliament Buildings,
CHARLES GORDON Funny Town reflecting our history and culture. They are spread out a bit — from the War Museum in LeBreton Flats, to the Museum of History in Gatineau (with side trips to the Museum of Nature down O’Connor Street and the Science Museum on St. Laurent). What we’ve always needed is something resembling Washington’s National Mall — that walkable collection of museums and historical buildings stretching from the Lincoln Monument to Capitol Hill. Adding another attraction across the street from Parliament Hill will help. You might also welcome reports Vice President & Regional Publisher Peter Bishop pbishop@metroland.com 613-283-3182

that the former U.S. embassy building will become a centre for indigenous peoples. That’s a good use. In a day when there is an intense and overdue focus on Canada’s indigenous peoples and culture, it is fitting that a prominent place be given to that. The Canadian Press report on the government’s plans for the building notes that consultations are underway with indigenous communities on the best possible uses of the space. Do they even want it? It would be interesting to listen in on those consultations. You wonder, for example, if indigenous communities, while grateful for the offer, might wonder what a 1930s Beaux-Arts style building historically associated with the government of the United States has to do with them. You could imagine somebody asking the government whether it might, since it is committed to indigenous
culture, put up a building that reflects that on the outside as well as the inside. Something by Douglas Cardinal, say, rather than an American architect born in the 19th century. The beauty of the now-familiar portrait gallery proposal is that it doesn’t much matter what a portrait gallery looks like from the street. So the embassy site is fine for that. But the portrait gallery idea may have passed its best-before date. It has been kicking around since 2001 and nothing has been done. You can blame politics for that — the idea having been started by Jean Chrétien and ended by Stephen Harper — but it is difficult to avoid the conclusion that Canada would have a national portrait gallery by now if there had been public enthusiasm for it. Which is not to say that there shouldn’t be a portrait gallery some-

Letter: Daughters tell about their dad, MPP Jack MacLaren The three daughters of Carleton-Mississippi Mills MPP Jack MacLaren wrote the following letter about their father: We’re proud of our dad, Jack MacLaren, now, more than ever. Every politician has a rough stretch in their career and it’s no surprise that the last year has been tough on our dad. There was sensitivity training, a falling out with Patrick Brown and a dangling nomination that never came. Despite this, we saw our dad work tirelessly for the Ontario PC Party, going to outreach events, signing up hundreds of members and door knocking with volunteers during byelections. Our dad loves that part of the job, where he gets to meet and talk with people. But we also saw the dark side of politics during this time. Seeing people who were friends one day calling our dad untrue, hurtful names because of a bad joke he told was hard on us. That’s because we know our dad to be a loving, caring and fair person who has always been there for his daughters, wife, grandkids and neighbours. Our dad isn’t a career politician and, thankfully, he never learned how to talk in the language of political correctness. He was too busy raising three daughters, working two jobs, combining fields at midnight and delivering calves at two in the morning. But what he lacks in political polish, he makes up for with integrity, honesty and genuine care for his neighbours, friends and community. This desire to help people is what led him into politics. His ambition was never to be a politician; it was just the natural progression in his fight to improve the world around him. At a time when most people his age are wind-
Letter from MPP
The following is a letter that has been received from MPP Jack MacLaren: Dear Constituents of Carleton-Mississippi Mills, I am writing to tell you that I have resigned from the PC Party of Ontario, and that I have joined the Trillium Party of Ontario (TPO). This decision has come after much careful thought and consideration. I have been door knocking for more than a year now in preparation for the nomination meeting in the riding of Kanata-Carleton. I am confident that I would have won that nomination contest. I remain convinced that Ontarians should make it their highest priority to oust the Kathleen Wynne gang that calls itself the Ontario Liberal Party. A stable and prosperous Ontario cannot include Kathleen Wynne. But many of you have expressed disappointment with the PC Party. I share your disappointment. And so I look forward, with enthusiasm, to representing my constituents as a member of the TPO. This Party will give me the opportunity to speak freely on your behalf, to vote freely on your behalf, and to have input into all policy making on your behalf. I will continue to represent you at Queen’s Park as your Member of Provincial Parliament. I will run in the next Provincial Election as a member of the Trillium Party. Jack MacLaren
ing down their careers and thinking about retirement, dad chose to learn politics with the intention to make a difference. Rather than complaining about the system or the politicians within it, he chose to run in provincial politics to make changes from within. We are very proud of him for this. The passion, dedication and initiative dad has demonstrated here and throughout his life are inspiring. Our dad will not say things just because people want to hear it. He despises the games and gossip that are part of politics. And he is not afraid to stand up for what he believes is right, even though it may not be politically popular. It takes courage to step outside this box and tackle bigger, more complicated and less acceptable topics, like property rights. And in politics, once you do that, you become a target for critics, and it can get vicious. But this hasn’t stopped our dad, and it won’t. His sense of responsibility to his constituents won’t allow him to sit back and take the easy route. When our dad told us in midMay that he was leaving the Ontario PC Party to join the Trillium party, we were not surprised. He had been
struggling with the belief that he could not properly represent his constituents any longer while at the same time toeing the party line on things he disagreed with, like the carbon tax. Leaving the Ontario PC Party was not an easy or rash decision for him, but in the end he chose to remain loyal to the people and values that helped him first get elected in 2011. Instead of dwelling on the problem, complaining or becoming apathetic, our dad decided to take a bold step and leave the PC party. He’s travelling a harder road now, but he’s free to speak his mind and advocate for the things he believes in and the people he represents. We are proud of you, dad, for your unwavering honesty, integrity and passion in the face of adversity. We’ve seen you make a positive impact on the lives of people in your community who you have helped and you have made a difference. That’s the way you have always been. We love you, dad. Thank you for inspiring us to never settle and to continue to fight for what is right. Your daughters, Jessica, Rachel and Alexis

Member of Parliament Kanata-Carleton Dairy Farm Visit Thanks to Todd Styles for hosting a visit to the Oakstone dairy farm in Kinburn. It was great to have my fellow MPs Lloyd Longfield and Mona Fortier visit the Riding, and we were well briefed on all the recent advances that have been made in the dairy industry. I’d also like to thank Matt Morrison from Dairy Farmers Canada for helping to organize the event. I couldn’t believe the level of technology and organization that goes into the running of a dairy farm. I am always interested in hearing from our regions farmers; if you own a farm, and would be interested in having me come out to discuss issues that affect you, please contact my office.
Air Cadet Reviews I was proud to attend the annual reviews of 706 Ottawa Snowy Owl Squadron and 872 Kiwanis Kanata Squadron. The dedication and discipline these teenagers display in representing their squadrons is incredible. Canadian Cadet Organizations provide excellent training opportunities for our youth. I will continue to be a proud advocate and supporter of the values they instill in our children, and the role they play in our communities.
Defense Policy Review The Honourable Minister of National Defence, Harjit Sajjan, recently unveiled Canada’s new defence policy. Titled Strong, Secure, Engaged - this new policy was developed following unprecedented consultations with Canadians, parliamentarians from all parties, industry, key stakeholders, partners and allies. The plan focuses, first and foremost, on the brave women and men of the Canadian Armed Forces. The policy sets the course of National Defence and the Canadian Armed Forces for the next 20 years. Our plan commits to a range of new investments for the Canadian Military, its members, and their families. It will deliver the resources and capabilities needed for a strong and agile military to meet today’s complex and modern challenges.
Dan Aykroyd I had the distinct honour on behalf of the Honourable Minister of Canadian Heritage, Mélanie Joly, of welcoming back to Ottawa one of Canada’s comedic legends, Dan Aykroyd. I met Mr. Aykroyd at the Fallowfield station as he travelled from Kingston to Ottawa on VIA Rail to make an announcement as one of Canada 150’s ambassadors. Mr. Aykroyd is an excellent ambassador to represent Canada for our sesquicentennial year. Although our trip together was brief, we talked about film and his time spent in Ottawa and the surrounding region. I also confessed to him that The Blues Brothers is one of my absolute favourite movies.
Working for and Representing Kanata-Carleton It is such an honour and privilege to serve as your Member of Parliament and I look forward to meeting and working with you all.

Murder Mystery Theatre in Carp on July 7, 8 and 9
Special to the Review
A murder mystery theatre is coming to West Carleton. It’s going to have all the sleuthing twists and turns that will make it a time to remember. You just know that it will be a delicious mystery by its very title: Murder at Café Noir. And besides the murder mystery, there will be a similarly delicious three-course dinner. But that’s not all. The whole event is being held as a benefit to help with flood relief in the West Carleton region. This presentation is being presented by the Rural Root Theatre Company in partnership with Lakeside Players. The production will be staged at the Carp Agricultural Hall in Carp on July 7, 8 and 9. Written by David Landau and Nikki Stern and directed by Greg Giesler, Murder at Café Noir will entertain you while you enjoy your catered meal. Murder at Café Noir is a 1940s detective story that features Rick Archer, P.I., who is out to fine a runaway on the forgotten island of Mustique, a place stuck in a black-and-white era. The body of the owner of the Café Noir has washed ashore on the island, murdered and Rick’s suspect
As July approaches, so too do the annual free concerts at Fitzroy Provincial Park presented by City of Ottawa Coun. Eli El-Chantiry, the Goulbourn Stittsville recreation unit and Waste Management.

During the concerts, donations will be accepted for CHEO. Those attending are urged to take along a lawn chair. The concerts will go ahead, rain or shine.

Strawberry time is coming. One spot where you will be able to enjoy local strawberries along with whipped cream and homemade cake is a Canada 150 strawberry social and open house being hosted by the Huntley Township Historical Society on Saturday, June 24 from 2 p.m. to 4 p.m. It’s being held at the Borden Building at the Carp Airport at 1500 Thomas Argue Rd., with everyone invited to attend. Besides the strawberries, you will also have lemonade to enjoy. In addition to this strawberry so-

For more information, please call Suzanne at 613-839-5203. Strawberries are among the world’s great and best tasting fruits, widely appreciated for its aroma, red colour, juicy texture and sweetness.

was the last person seen with him. Rick employs his hard-boiled talents to find the killer. It could have been the French madame and club manager, the voodoo priestess, the shyster British attorney, the black marketeer or the femme fatale. Just who will the murderer be? The audience will vote twice on what they want Rick to do next during the course of the play. These decisions will change the flow of this play which could be seen as a comic tribute to the Bogart era. Indeed, the Boston Herald saw this connection to Bogart in making the following comment about the play: ”It’s as close as you’ll ever get to stepping into Bogey’s shoes at the Blue Parrot.” The doors will open at 6:30 p.m. on both the Friday and Saturday, with the show beginning at 7:15 p.m. On the Sunday, the doors will open at 1 p.m. with the show starting at 1:30 p.m. Tickets are $40 each which will include both the three-course meal and the show. All of the proceeds are going to flood relief in the West Carleton area. Tickets are now on sale and can be purchased online at http://www.ruralroot.org/tickets/ or by phone at 613618-9789.

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 rounding into condition after the very wet spring and Martyn Munro and his staff have been very busy keeping ahead of the grass cutting and cleaning up the winter debris. Some changes include additional tree clearing on both sides of the 1st fairway as well as beside the 10th green and along both sides of the 11th fairway. The 17th tee is now fully operational after last year’s re-build. The course conditions have jump started the Men’s competitive season starting with the Kickers scramble on May 13. Frank Pecora, Harold Neumann and Steve Wilson were the opening day winners with a 3 under par score of 67. The opening Men’s day was held on May 15 and was sponsored by the Madawaska Men’s Club. Kevin Ryan and Matt Brown were the ‘A’ flight winners followed by Dave Timms and Keith Blimkie in ‘B’ flight. Dan Kennedy and Don Aaron were the ‘C’ flight winners and the ‘D’ flight winners were John Kohli and Jim Bonnar. Men’s day on May 22 was sponsored by the Madawaska Golf Club. Dan McCaskill and Ken Ledgerwood were the A flight winners. Andrew Moyes and Steve Marsh were the B flight winners followed by Dan Kennedy and Doug Parkin in C flight.

Ottawa Public Health continues to be diligent in testing for the West Nile Virus throughout the mosquito season. OPH treats any standing water that has had a positive result with the appropriate treatment. If you are concerned about a specific area of standing water and you would like to check if that area is being tested, simply call the Ottawa Public Health Information Line at 613-580-6744 or 3-1-1. The City’s website at ottawa.ca has useful tips and suggestions on avoiding mosquito bites and eliminating standing water around your home. I have received a couple of inquiries wanting to know if the City can spray for nuisance mosquitoes in the Ward 5 area. There are no plans at this time to implement such a program. There is currently a trial program running in Ward 4 (Kanata North) relating to nuisance mosquitoes. It is too soon to conclude if positive impacts are occurring, and the research program will continue for another two years. As well, it should be noted that the residents of Kanata North have to pay a yearly tax levy of approximately $40 for this program. As West Carleton-March is over 30 times larger than Kanata North and boasts many ponds, creeks, and other bodies of water, it would be challenging to institute a similar program in our ward. It should be noted too that the tax levy that would be incurred by the Ward 5 taxpayer would be much higher than what Kanata North is currently paying. Celebrate Canada’s 150th in Kinburn

It started with the unloading of a shipment of grain and continued through the production process including seeing the large milling equipment at the mill. “Wow, this is so cool,” one student exclaimed on seeing the milling equipment. “For me the biggest gain was satisfying my own natural curiosity of what went on in the building,” said teacher Kerry Chick. The Ottawa Valley Grain Products mill is located on Donald B. Munro Drive in the heart of the village of Carp. “For the children, they were fascinated to see the connection between the fields they pass by on their bus trip to school every day, the grain we used in our Stone Soup (based on a Submitted book) and the flour used to make the Kevin Stewart (far left, back), general manager of the Ottawa Valley dough for the pizza they eat,” Chick Grain Products mill in Carp, addresses a group of students from Huntley said. “All right here in their own comCentennial Public School during their recent visit to the mill in Carp. munity.” by sarah band
Special to the Review
A parent volunteer thought it was great to get a look behind-the-scenes at this local business. “This is awesome,” she said. “I’ve driven by it every day but to see it in person is so cool.” Ottawa Valley Grain Products is a family operated mill that has been in business since 1929. The mill produces a number of products from pearled barley to whole grain flour. This visit was part of a more comprehensive an-
nual field trip that made several stops in the village including at the post office and at the fire station. This field trip experience is linked to an aspect of the students’ social studies curriculum called “The Local Community.” “It is important for the children to learn about the relationships between people and services in their community,” explained Chick. “Being relatively rural, it looks at how basic needs are met in their community.”

Carp Herb Festival on June 24 Special to the Review
Jack MacLaren Member of Provincial Parliament Carleton-Mississippi Mills
On Saturday, June 24, the second annual Carp Herb Festival will be held at the Carp Farmers’ Market at the Carp fairgrounds, running from 8 a.m. to 3 p.m., with lots of fresh herbs, cooking demonstrations, tea tasting and more. Then, on Saturday, July 1, there will be the celebration of two birthdays held. Canada is celebrating its 150th birthday while the Carp Farmers' Market is making its 27th birthday. There will be lots of cake available for the celebration.

We’re still open for business The last two years have seen political upheaval of a nature not seen in nearly one hundred years. Voters everywhere roundly rejected the “business as usual” attitude of elites in all mainstream parties. Most feel they are unrepresented and that their concerns go unheeded by people who take their support for granted. From the global level to the local, change is everywhere. But for me very little has changed. I am still committed to representing my constituents and working tirelessly for their interests. Being free from the rigidity of a party that I didn’t agree with is the only major change in my life. This will only allow more transparency, honesty and more direct democracy. It should come as no surprise that I have been exceedingly frustrated with the partisan bickering and whipped votes found in all the major parties. I can now speak freely about issues that concern my constituents and let only sound judgement and conscience guide my policy and actions from here on out. We’re still open for business!

Kerr’s songs focus on connection to experience Continued from page 5
“My song Home, is about many things. “The feeling I put in to my song are hard to describe, but for example, while I was enrolled in my Carleton program, that felt like home, being at my cottage feels like home, being with my friends, feels like home. “Knowing sometime you are going to leave that comfortable place, but also knowing you can always go back to it. I write a lot about nature and being outside.” The song Home can be found on her soonto-be released second EP titled Downtown. The six-song album also features the song The Boat which Kerr wrote when reminisc-
ing about fishing trips. The title track, Downtown, is about living near Elgin Street while attending Carleton. This is her second album having released another EP, Dreams, approximately a year earlier. “I was more involved in the production of this one,” Kerr says as she continues her education in the music industry. The official release party is set for The Cross on Elgin (360 Elgin St.) on Saturday, June 24. Kerr will have some special guests perform with her and says it will be the first time she will perform live with a full band. “I hope my fans who are used to seeing just me will be excited to see something a bit
new,” she said. “It’s really fun playing with a band. I get to interact with more people on the stage.” She says the album is a celebration of her time at Carleton and hopes the party will be too. “A lot of people involved with the CD are my friends and coaches from Carleton,” Kerr said. “We want to celebrate that.” Soon after the CD release party, Kerr will be performing in front of her largest audience yet as one of the musical acts performing at this year’s Bluesfest on Friday, July 7. Kerr will be inside the War Museum at the Barney Danson Theatre. “I’m super excited, this will be my biggest show yet,” she said.
Last year Kerr was an off-site performer at Bluesfest. While currently focused on her performing, Kerr is making sure whatever her future holds, music will be a part of it. “That’s why, despite her busy music schedule, she’s enrolled in teachers’ college. “I want to have a few paths,” Kerr said. “It’s a really cool way to reach kids. I was inspired be seeing my music teacher reach kids who maybe didn’t like school or lacked direction at the time, and see her really reach kids with music. I always thought that was pretty cool.” Kerr’s new album will be available on her website www.jilliankerr.ca or wherever she is performing.

National Aboriginal Day happens on Wednesday, June 21. To honour and celebrate this special event, the Anglican Parish of Huntley is hosting a free community event on Saturday, June 17 from 10 a.m. to noon at the church hall at 3774 Carp Rd., next to the Carp fairgrounds. The event will be held outdoors unless the weather is inclement, in which case the event will move into the parish hall. “We are excited to welcome the community to a morning of drumming, sampling First Nations food, learning and participating in this very special day,” says Rev. Monique Stone of the Parish of Huntley. “All are welcome and the event is free.” Taking place just a few days before National Aboriginal Day, this morning event aims to foster understanding and healing between indigenous and nonindigenous peoples throughout the community. As part of the event, Cree leaders Elaine and Theland Kicknosway will lead a Kairos Blanket Exercise starting at approximately 10:30 a.m. This is an entertaining teaching tool that
shares the historic and modern relationship between indigenous and nonindigenous peoples in Canada. Those participating are urged, if possible, to bring along your own blanket to add to the exercise. There will also be several available at the site. This will be a great opportunity to get some insight into the history and culture of the original residents of this area. National Aboriginal Day is celebrated each year to recognize the unique heritage, diverse cultures and outstanding contributions of First Nations, Inuit and Métis peoples. National Aboriginal Day is held on June 21 in every region of Canada. Activities and events can include summer solstice festivals, barbecue fundraisers, social networking gatherings with traditional and contemporary music, sacred fire extinguishing ceremonies, traditional feasts and more. National Aboriginal Day gives people from all walks of life in Canada the opportunity to celebrate and share knowledge about the Aboriginal peoples’ values, customs, languages and culture. Canada’s Governor General proclaimed the first National Aboriginal Day in 1996.

WCSS Wolves net Tier 2 lacrosse title by jake davies
jake.davies@metroland.com
A ragtag group of happy-golucky men, some with zero experience, bonded; came together; overcame adversity; and against all odds, took home the league championship. It sounds like a movie, and it is. It’s the The Bad News Bears, The Mighty Ducks and Mystery, Alaska. But, it’s also the story of the 2017 West Carleton Secondary School (WCSS) Wolves boys’ lacrosse team. The Wolves went undefeated in the Tier II National Capital Secondary School Athletic Association (NCSSAA) lacrosse season before winning the championship against Glebe Collegiate in overtime. The season kicked off on April 21 with a 5-4 win over Glebe. Game three was their only non-win — a 4-4 tie against Sacred Heart. The Wolves would not let in more than three goals in a game for the remainder of the season, resulting in a string of five consecutive wins. The Wolves defeated St. Peter 5-3 in the semifinals on May 29 before going for gold the following day. The finals were against Glebe — a team they had already played two times previously this season. WCSS was down 2-0 early, but battled back to 2-1 by the half. Regulation time ended with

The WCSS Wolves lacrosse team took gold in Tier 2 NCSSAA in 2017. In the back row, from left, are Cole Angeconeb (assistant coach), John Staff (coach), Jacob Clark, JM Atallah, Ryan Rivard, Nick Langford, Connor Armstrong, Andrew Hudson, Carter Newsome, Cameron Bengough, Rob McCoy, Nick Ashfield, Evan Hoekstra, Cole Ross, Tyler Nicholson and Gavin McOnie (assistant coach). In the middle row are Cassie McCabe (assistant coach), Tye Wetzel, Cohen Byce, Curtis Proulx, Owen Carnegie, Connor Eades, Ryan Evelyn and Brayden Jorsen. In front are Nick Bond, Mitchel Scott, James Owen and Alex Jutras. the two teams tied at three before James Owen scored in overtime to take the title. Despite the great season, several on the Wolves roster had never even played lacrosse before, while others had only played box lacrosse before. “I hadn’t played lacrosse, but I had played hockey before,” Grade 12 student Rob (Roy) McCoy said. “So, it made lot of sense. I played defence with the big stick. I got to hit people with it, so I enjoyed that part of it.” When asked what the secret
was behind the team’s 7-0-1 record, one player said, “Carter Newsome.” Newsome scored five goals in the Wolves’ first game of the season and filled the net regularly at the start of the season. But coach John Staff said he noticed something as the season played itself out. “Newsome scored most of his goals in the first half of the season, and then the rest of the team picked it up in the second half,” he said. “The team had a lot of spirit. They would show up for games
in plaid shirts and cowboy boots for warm up. One hundred per cent spirit.” “And pure offense,” McCoy added. Staff said he saw a lot of growth from the inexperienced Wolves throughout the season, and it was never more evident then during the championship match. “Our team play improved throughout the season,” he said. “It definitely took everyone on the field to win that last game, which was great.”

Now that the time has come to purchase a new home, you want to make sure you get it exactly right. This is, after all, the most important investment you’ll likely ever make. While there is a wide variety of housing choices on the market in Ottawa these days, it is difficult to decide how to get started. There are so many components in your plan to consider: do you want to live in the city, the suburbs or maybe in a more rural setting? Of course the financial considerations are key. How much are you able to put down on that dream home and what size of mortgage can you handle? And what type of home are you looking for, a large single family dwelling with plenty of greenspace or a townhome that might require a little less maintenance? Perhaps you’re approaching your retirement years and looking to be closer to family. The multi-generational option is playing a growing role in the market these days. So many of Canada’s top home builders call the national capital region home, offering an array of housing styles. And Metroland Media brings you closer to these award-winning builders through our monthly feature, Floor Plan 2017. Doing your homework is key to purchasing a new home. We’re pleased to provide this special section to help make that process just a little easier. And look for more ideas in our next supplement inside your Metroland newspaper Thursday, Aug. 24.

2 Floor Plan - Thursday, June 15, 2017
Are you ready to become a HOMEOWNER? Congratulations! You’ve decided to buy a house. Owning a home is something to be proud of, but be careful. Are you really ready to be a homeowner? There’s a huge difference between the dream and reality. To become a homeowner, you’ll have to make a down payment of between 5 and 20 per cent of the property’s price. And that’s not all; you also need to estimate any additional costs associated with the purchase, such as a home inspection, notary or lawyer fees and legal expenses for the transfer of ownership. Generally, you should expect to pay about three per cent of the purchase price for these additional expenses. Don’t forget to add in the property taxes and home insurance as well. You’ll also have to take into account the costs of moving, renovations, utility connections (electricity, cable, Internet, etc.) and any maintenance. In other words, it’s important to evaluate your ability to pay before buying. Your current debt load will be a determining factor, so do your calculations carefully. Tip: before you start looking for your dream home, make an appointment with
your financial institution to find out what level of mortgage loan they would give you. Of course, you don’t have to do this, but it can help you target properties in the price range
you can afford. Lastly, don’t forget that even though home ownership is a great way to build capital, you’ll have to find the time, energy and
money to take care of your home’s maintenance and repair work. If you’d prefer to use your savings and free time to see the world, you’d better think twice before signing.

Buyers in Strandherd Meadows will be able to choose from any of 12 bungalow designs ranging from 1,034 sq. ft. up to 2,515 sq. ft. or 14 two-storey single family homes ranging in size from 1,548 sq. ft. to 3,945 sq. ft. “As the neighbourhood is already built up, buyers of the last 19 lots will not have to deal with very much new construction around them.” Register online today at www.Phoenixhomes.ca to secure one of the remaining lots and then plan to move into your new home next summer! “Our single-family homes combine beautifully crafted designs with exceptionally functional layouts, offering you convenience and charm in one perfect home.” Phoenix Homes builds the highest quality, energy efficient and environmentally friendly, best value homes available. All homes are built to exacting standards, functional and comfortable, no matter what price. “We have made it a point to ensure that we are the best value in any area, compared to competition. Generally speaking, we are one step ahead of the competition – quality finishing, bonuses, and upgrades. When you do the math, you will always find that we’re ahead.” Just one of the many outstanding designs in a twostorey home, the Winchester is a home designed with family in mind. The double garage has access directly to the spacious mudroom with large closet, laundry room and powder room. The main floor is perfect for entertaining with a gourmet kitchen including a large island with seating for three opening into both the great room and living/dining room. The second floor can be made to suit any family – with 3, 4, and 5 bedroom options. The master suite, in any plan chosen, is luxurious with a large walk-in closet (the 4 bed option has his and hers walk-ins) and four-piece ensuite. Similarly, the Rutherford has been designed to provide all the benefits of a large home in a smaller package. The Rutherford has five exciting elevations available in configurations of 2,525 - 2,748 sq./ft. with four or five bedrooms, and four full washrooms on the second floor. Buyers can choose either an enclosed den or opt to increase the size of the kitchen to suit the most discerning chef. The four-bedroom option offers striking elegance with a two-storey family room. A two-sided fireplace helps to separate the family room and dinette while keeping the space open concept. The Rutherford second floor features a laundry, one Jack & Jill washroom, and two ensuites. Accessibility is no problem at Phoenix Homes, which offer custom entrances, wider doorways and halls, and appealing add-ons at ever turn. “We offer the best value anywhere. We invite people to shop and compare. We’ll always have something the others don’t.” Looking for a home that is designed for multi-
generational living? The Newington is all about innovation in design, comfort and functionality. “This home satisfies the demand for homes where family members of all generations stay in the same home. You can easily have three generations living comfortably under one roof.” The well-thought out floorplans and countless options save the hassle of trying to make an-in-law suite that compromises the house. “The Newington is purpose built for multi-generational living, from the ground up.” With a common entrance and shared space for family
interaction, the Newington provides ample opportunity for family gatherings while maintaining independence and privacy for individual interests. In keeping with the growing demand for natural products, Phoenix Homes has had its own operations to supply hardwood and granite since 2005. State-of-the-art CNC cutting machines for fabrication ensure the company’s granite and quartz are of the highest quality. Come home to a parkland setting nestled in the heart of Barrhaven.

Buying from a Plan? Proceed carefully when buying a property from a plan Has a residential property development project caught your eye, and you’d love to buy one of the models? Everything seems right: the location, surroundings, materials, size of rooms and price. But be cautious about signing a pre-purchase contract based on a plan. You need to check a lot of details before buying a property that you’ve never laid eyes on. Your first step is to ask about the developer, builder and architect. Do they have good reputations? How many years have they been in business? Are they accredited by a recognized association? Check their permits and licences and don’t hesitate to ask for references from previous clients. Go to city hall to find out about other projects that are planned for the area where you want to live. Will there eventually be a park? A bigger road? Rental properties? Industrial buildings? Don’t rely exclusively on everything you’re told while visiting the show home. Do you feel pressured to sign quickly? Never sign a preliminary contract before your notary or lawyer has checked it out first. As a final precaution you can hire your own specialists to inspect your house or condo du ring every stage of the building process. They can check the quality of the soil, the excavation, foundations, framing and insulation, to name just a few things worth keeping tabs on.

Garden-insPired decor brightens spaces and mood Many homeowners take up gardening to transform their homes with beautiful flowers and foliage, while others do so to yield fresh fruits and vegetables. But gardening can be more than just a weekend hobby. In fact, it may be especially beneficial for homeowners to surround themselves with more plants and natural decor, whether in the yard or in the home. Studies have indicated that gardening can be good for the mind and body. In addition to improving mood and reducing stress, plant life and gardening also may help people have a more hopeful outlook on life. If reaping the benefit of a beautiful landscape is not reason enough to get into gardening, elevating your mood and coping with depression or illness may be even further motivation to start developing your green thumb.
Living wall planters A living wall planter can add greenery to any décor without taking up floor or table space. Ideal for outdoor structures, these planters also can be used indoors if you safeguard against leaks and dripping. A living wall planter is a framed device that houses plants in a manner that enables them to be vertically mounted to a wall surface. While
there are commercially available models, you can create your own design and paint or stain it to match the existing décor. Use a soil free potting substrate to avoid the mess that regular soil may create.
Combining fish with gardening Enjoy the best of two relaxing worlds by installing a water feature in your yard. Garden retailers offer readymade kits that can make fast work of establishing a pond or other water feature in the backyard. Otherwise, there are plenty of water garden companies and installers who can suggest a design and put in your desired water features. Add fish suitable for outdoor life to your pond. These include koi and certain goldfish varieties. Game fish are discouraged because they can destroy pond plants. If an outdoor pond is more maintenance than you desire, consider an indoor aquarium with a combination of fish and live aquarium plants.
Creative furniture designs Maybe you’re a person who appreciates the unique and whimsical? Tables, benches and chairs can be built with planting channels that enable you to have greenery and garden décor in one piece. Envision a picnic table with a cutout down the center for a thin row of plants or decorative grasses. This is a project the entire family can get behind, as the more creative ideas the better.

Talos Homes feature exceptional quality, value, and workmanship. With the same attention to detail and pride of craftsmanship on which he insisted, Talos Homes today caters to discerning home buyers looking for homes with interiors as exquisitely finished as the exteriors. Talos President David Toscano continues the Toscano family tradition of using only the finest quality materials and workmanship by personally overseeing all aspects of building each home. Talos’ newest community, HighGate is conveniently located within minutes of historic Bridge Street – in the heart of charming Carleton Place.

WCSS sends bumper crop to OFSAA by jake davies
jake.davies@metroland.com
It was another recordbreaking year for track and field at West Carleton Secondary School (WCSS). Coach Kelly Goto said a record number of 80 students represented the Wolves on the track field as the season kicked off, which led to a record number of athletes qualifying for the Ontario Federation of Schools Athletic Associations (OFSAA) championship in Belleville from June 1 to 3. Thirteen WCSS school students qualified for OFSAA (must have a top-two finish at the east regional meet to qualify) in junior girls (Jada Thomson, Jordyn Waines, Elisabeth Cox, Leah Storms and Chi Ekeke) and midget boys (Aaron McArdle, Zach Davis, Kevin Jorssen, Thomas Keough and Gabe O’Donnell) 4x100metre relay; Jr boys shot put and discuss (Brandon Ovington); Jr girls 200-metre sprint (Elisabeth Cox); Jr girls long jump (Chi Ekeke); midget boys triple jump (Curtis Proulx); and midget boys shot put (Logan Madore). The team even brought two medals home, including a bronze in discuss and a silver in shot put thanks to junior athlete Brandon Ov-

BWCSS sent 13 athletes to OFSAA, a school record. In back, from left is Brandon Ovington, Aaron McArdle, Kevin Jorssen, Thomas Keough, Logan Madore, Zach Davis. In the bottom row are Jada Thompson, Chiamaka Ekeke, Elisabeth Cox, Leah Storms, Jordyn Waines, Curtis Proulx, Gabe O’Donnell. ington of Kinburn. Athletes on the team posted six personal bests. The Wolves came first in junior girls and midget boys at the national capital meet and came second in every other division. WCSS also sent a record number of athletes to the east regional meet — the OFSAA qualifying meet. “Our junior and midget program has been the strength of our team the last two years,” Goto said. Ovington, a club member of the Ottawa Lions track club, has been a shot put athlete since Grade 7. He only took up the discus last summer. Ovington likes the solitude of field events.

“I don’t have to rely on a team to excel on,” he told the West Carleton Review. “If it’s only me, win or lose, I can correct the problem myself.” Ovington practices with the Lions three times a week. During the high school season, he also practiced with the Wolves three times a week until he reached the minimum practices to qualify for high school meets and could return his focus to the Lions. When he is not at practice, Ovington is in the weight room another three times a week working on his strength and speed. His two OFSAA medals are also a school record. Ovington said it was not too difficult to become competi-
tive in discus despite his relatively recent introduction to the sport. “Discus and shot put have a lot in common for training,” Ovington said. “It was just a matter of getting the technique down.” Goto, who coaches track with Nick Graham, Deb Thompson, Andrew Ashton, Dan Zuro and Heather Kirk, has been coaching the team for roughly the last eight years. She says she has seen a lot of change in that time. “I saw this program go from 30 kids to 80 kids,” she said. “It’s improved a lot, especially with the strength of the younger kids. They are showing they are very dedicated.”

Molasses filled all sorts of purposes
Y
ou could smell molasses at Briscoe’s General Store, once you got by the row of cookies in their tilted boxes at the front. There was no attempt made to shut out the smells that filled the store, and coal oil, rubber boots, maple cookies, rolls of yard goods, and of course, molasses aromas met you as soon as you opened the door. If Mother didn’t want molasses that day. I would still head to the back of the store, where a pail sat on a narrow bench, with a tin ladle resting on a chipped saucer, where customers could fill little honey pails with as much molasses as they needed. And if no one was looking, I would run my finger onto the saucer, capturing some that had stayed with the ladle used by the last customer. Of course, molasses filled all sorts of purposes at home. It would be poured into Mother’s homemade Boston baked beans, a recipe that was said to turn out the best baked beans in the entire county! All the time the beans were baking, Mother kept testing them with a spoon, and she would add just a bit more molasses, until they were exactly as she wanted them. Soon the smell of the molasses overpowered the chunk of salt pork pushed down into the beans, and all you could smell was molasses. Father never considered his pipe tobacco ready to smoke until he had added a couple spoons of molasses. He bought leafs as big as fry pans, and he had a tobacco cutter attached to a board, which he used to cut the leaves into small pieces. And then with his bare hands he would mix the molasses
into the tobacco. Of course, it all had to dry out before it was fit for his pipe. So it was spread out onto a cookie sheet and put in the warming-closet at the top of the Findlay Oval. And there it sat, with Father running his hands through it until it was dry enough to smoke in his pipe. It wasn’t unusual for one of us five children to come down with what was called the grippe. Of course, that wasn’t serious enough an ailment to call either Mrs. Beam or bring old Doctor Murphy out from Renfrew. So when it happened that one of us, or sometimes the whole lot of us, complained of a stomach ache, out would come the molasses. It wasn’t above Emerson to complain of what he would call “ a sickish feeling” just to be dosed with Mother’s special molasses treatment. It was a real treat, and no one complained when Mother mixed up a glass of cold water with baking soda and a spoonful of molasses. I t fizzed up just like a drink from a bottle of KIK bought at Briscoe’s General Store. Whether it did anything for a sick stomach was a good question, but it was certainly a ‘cure’ we all looked forward to. And every spring, just to give us what Mother called “a good cleanout,” we’d be treated to one of her molasses concoctions. Not one of us complained, even when the drink sent us scurrying to the outhouse, which was its main purpose. Molasses went into muffins and cookies and was drizzled over bread pudding. A special treat for me was when Mother was using molasses in one of her many dishes, and I
was allowed to lick the spoon. Interested in an electronic version of Mary’s books? Go to https://www.smashwords.com and type MaryRCook for ebook purchase details, or if you would like a hard copy, please contact Mary at wick2@sympatico.ca.

When it comes to nature, it is never safe to generalize. For example, one cannot say that caterpillars only eat leaves, for while most do, those of the Harvester variety eat Woolly Aphids. And while most woodpeckers exhume insects out of wood or, in the case of Northern Flickers, out of the ground, there is one species that has a very different item on its menu. As the name suggests, Yellowbellied Sapsuckers eat the sap of trees. Sapsuckers are beautiful birds. Males have a bright red cap and throat and a black bib with yellow below it. Their back sports a striking black and white pattern, one that blends in rather well with a distinctive feature often found on the trunks of White Birches. That feature is a series of rectangular holes made by the woodpeckers to access the tree’s sap. While sapsuckers enjoy the sap of a number of trees, including Eastern Hemlocks and Speckled Alders, they are particularly fond of the sap of White Birches. Still, they do not randomly tap all birches. Instead, they find a particularly good tree and go back to it year after year. When the

right tree is found they drill a series of shallow wells in neat rows on one side of the trunk. They also peel off any bark that might curl and block access to the sap. They return to the wells several times a day and after several days reopen them when they become plugged. Each year they drill new holes above those of the previous year. A filamentous brush on the end of the long, extensible tongue picks up the sap that pools at the bottom of the wells. When the tongue is pulled back into the beak, the sap is removed before the tongue is reinserted into the well for another load. The sap wells provide food for not only their makers. A great variety of other animals also visit them for their sugar-
rich offerings. Ruby-throated Hummingbirds are regular visitors. They regularly visit sapsucker wells all through the summer, with their young joining them as soon as they fledge. Recently in Algonquin Park I spent eight hours observing and photographing the visitors coming to a sapsucker tree. There were three hummingbirds, with one female sitting in the birch and chasing away any rival that approached the wells. Two Red Admirals and a Mourning Cloak came regularly. Joining the butterflies was a Nessus Sphinx, a day-flying moth that hovers at flowers. Numerous flies and wasps including two of the giant European Hornets also visited. The latter aggressively chased away any hummingbird that was feeding. Red squirrels, eastern chipmunks, northern flying squirrels, and even black bears and martens are known to exploit the work of sapsuckers. While sapsuckers defend their wells from other sapsuckers, they seem to tolerate smaller visitors quite well. Perhaps some end up as meals as well. The Nature email is mruntz@start.ca.

The Socialization of Fergus the Red
F
ergus the Red does not like the heat. He lurks around the house seeking out cool corners and air conditioning vents. He goes outside for a short time, then whines and begs at the door to be let back in. His favourite spot is the basement, because it is always cold. But that is the cats’ lair, and he is not welcome there. The pup was ‘helping’ me with the gardening the other day and he got quite muddy so he needed a bath. He certainly is a water dog. He’s very suspicious of the hand-held shower nozzle but he loves the garden hose. After I towelled him off he ran through the house like his hair was on fire. Then he crashed on a heap of stuffed animals and chew toys and fell asleep on his back, legs in the air. As he lay sleeping, the cats dared to tip toe through the room. Sammy sniffed the edge of his dog bed with a horrified look of disgust. Despite my repeated introductions, the cats are not warming up to Fergus. I keep hoping they will get used to him but they may keep their distance until he gets past the chasing, chomping and chewing stage. Fergus has had a few lessons in socialization lately. His best experience by far was with another Golden Retriever. At 10 months old, Chester is still pup enough to play but he is also very gentle and accommodating. They played tug of war with a rope toy and Fergus just thought it was awesome. He has also met his Aunt Cathy’s Basset Hounds, Milo and Baxter. At just nine weeks of age, Fergus decided to mount Baxter. He was summarily dismissed. Anastasia’s yellow Lab, Rupert adores Fergus. He runs
DIANA FISHER The Accidental Farmwife and plays with the pup and puts up with all his shenanigans. Her German Pointer Skor, however, is a bit nervous around the puppy. The first time they met he flattened Fergus’ face into the ground with one paw. The most traumatic meet-and-greet for Fergus thus far was with Vitor, the German shepherd. When Vitor (who is very puppy-minded himself) grabbed the rope toy, Fergus probably thought: “Oh goody. He knows tug of war!” But Vitor was not interested in playing or sharing toys. He growled at the pup in warning. Fergus wasn’t taking no for an answer, and went in to nibble on Vitor’s muzzle. That earned him a quick nip over the eye. The yelping that ensued was like
nothing I have ever heard before. Fergus took off across the yard, his tail between his legs, ears flattened and wounded eye clamped shut. He could barely see where he was going but eventually he slammed into my legs and leaped up into my open arms. Then he whimpered and shivered and moaned for the next 10 minutes. We got him to open his eye and proved to him that he could actually see. He hadn’t been hurt — just frightened to
within an inch of his life. He quieted down, then someone said something in a kind voice and he started yelping again. After he calmed down, we got Vitor to come over and apologize. They touched noises and the little dog shivered with a big sigh. We decided it would be better to put Fergus in the house during dinner. We were just settling in to eat when I noticed something out of the corner of my eye. The dog had gone upstairs to find something comforting to nap with. He decided on a pair of my underwear and one of the Farmer’s socks. He was en route to his den/crate when I spotted him from my vantage point in the kitchen. I didn’t want him to shred my underthings but after what he had been through I figured he deserved some sort of creature comfort. I peeked around the corner and saw that he was curled up in a nest of toys and stolen items, his eyes already closed. The adrenalin rush had knocked him out. I closed the latch on the crate and pulled his curtain down so he could rest. After dinner we heard Fergus whimpering to be let out of his crate. He slowly stretched and strutted out onto the back porch, where he suddenly sat down and looked out over the yard. It was as if he were remembering the traumatic incident as he surveyed the scene of the crime. He is a smart dog, and I think he has learned a valuable lesson.

sudoku

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

ARIES – Mar 21/Apr 20 You may find yourself easily annoyed this week, Aries. Surround yourself with positive people so you’re not pulled into the doldrums. You will snap out of this funk.
LEO – Jul 23/Aug 23 Leo, if you have been hesitant about being in the spotlight, times are about to change. There are no more excuses this week. Dive head first into everything.
SAGITTARIUS – Nov 23/Dec 21 People around you may seem extra passionate about their beliefs this week, Sagittarius. But you can still take things lightly if those same fires are not stoked in you.
TAURUS – Apr 21/May 21 Taurus, when others call on you to police a situation, you might be stuck between doing the right thing and taking the side of a friend. Do your best to remain impartial.
VIRGO – Aug 24/Sept 22 It’s time to pull your head out of the clouds and get back to business, Virgo. The real world is beckoning, so get your mind straight and return to form.
CAPRICORN – Dec 22/Jan 20 This week you may pick up some skills you never thought possible, Capricorn. It may be computerrelated, or you may even begin to learn a foreign language.
GEMINI – May 22/Jun 21 The last few weeks have been good for you, Gemini. Others have had the chance to see what you are capable of accomplishing, and your confidence and ego are soaring as a result.
LIBRA – Sept 23/Oct 23 Libra, when speaking with others, take a more serious tone than you are used to. You don’t want to come off as if this is just a big joke. Something important is happening.
AQUARIUS – Jan 21/Feb 18 Aquarius, you may finally arrive at a destination only to discover you really didn’t want to go to this place after all. Sometimes, you learn through discovery.
SCORPIO – Oct 24/Nov 22 Consider listening rather than gossiping about others, Scorpio. Sit back and enjoy the conversation as it unfolds around you. You might be surprised by what you hear.
PISCES – Feb 19/Mar 20 Pisces, get outside and enjoy the fresh air as much as possible. The great outdoors can provide a welcome respite from the daily grind.
CANCER – Jun 22/Jul 22 Cancer, you may be called on to host family or friends and will have to arrange all of those details. Recognize your strengths and delegate what you can’t handle.

If you have a general legal question that you would like to have addressed send it via email to Legalmatters@compellingcounsel.com
Q: My husband and I are separating. We have two daughters, 4 and 9 years old. Things are reasonably amicable between us, especially regarding the children, and we are trying to figure out custody, access and support. We both work full time and will be living near each other. We plan to share custody of the children equally so does that mean that no child support is payable?

People commonly use custody to describe who the children live with, but that is legally inaccurate. Custody refers to decisions about how the children are raised – for example things such as education, residence, health care and extra-curricular activities. Therefore, joint custody does not mean a 50/50 time split between the parents. It means the parents will share in decisions about those important factors. This means you will make decisions jointly on the above issues, regardless of how much time the children spend with each parent. Time spent with the children is referred to as access. In a joint custody situation, you may share access equally. Some families do one week rotations, others more frequently. When access is not equal, the parent who has the children less often may have them every other weekend and one weeknight each week. However, this arrangement can vary

greatly and is dependent on factors specific to each particular family. If the parties plan to share time with the children equally this does not necessarily mean that no child support is payable. When the children spend equal time with each parent child support is calculated using a set off. Meaning, you would determine the figure each party would pay the other if the children spent the majority of their time in one parent’s home and then set off those two numbers against each other to come up with the child support payable. When you are negotiating your separation agreement or navigating through a formal divorce proceeding, a family lawyer will be able to advise you on the legal and practical considerations of custody, access and support to assist you in establishing an arrangement that works for everyone involved.
