Health Links joins patients, practitioners Provincial program aims to co-ordinate care of those with complex health issues Jessica Cunha jessica.cunha@metroland.com

Health Links is a new provincial program aimed at helping people with multiple health needs.

The Dunrobin Women’s Institute hosted a presentation on June 7 to introduce the

AROW (Arnprior Region and Ottawa West) Health Link, which serves people with complex health needs in the communities of West Carleton, Arnprior, Kanata and Stittsville.

“Sixteen per cent of patients in Ontario are complex,” said Diane Dean, a client engagement representative with AROW. “They use over 80 per cent of the (health care) budget.”

More names to be added to memorial plaque

Continued from page 1

The memorial is located at the intersection of Donald B. Munroe Drive and Falldown Lane in Carp.

The parade will be followed by a dedication service that will consist of a flag-raising and an address by guest of honour retired general Walter Natynczyk, Deputy Minister of Veterans Affairs Canada.

An act of remembrance will include a reading of the names of the fallen.

“It’s coming together,” said Peter Maddocks, secretary and project co-ordinator of the memorial. “To me, personally, it looks better than I had imagined. It’s a very comfortable space.”

Crews have been hard at work over the past weeks installing the various components to ready the site.

“The soldier installation took a long time to get it right.

When you get broken pieces of concrete looking like the remains of a destroyed building, it wasn’t quite as easy as we thought it would be,” said Maddocks with a chuckle.

Nicknamed ‘Our man', the bronze soldier is now permanently installed.

The components of the site have all been carefully thought out and feature a lot of symbolism. A bench on the grounds features brackets made in the same style as those in the 1940s, the soldier at rest represents the 'Canadi-

an everyman' and the war memorial has been configured in such a way that the sun, at 11 a.m. on Nov. 11, will fall directly on the list of names on the memorial plaque.

“It looks really good,” said Maddocks. “The site is complete aside from landscaping, which will go on throughout the summer.”

Currently, 37 names are inscribed on the memorial plaque, but more will be added, said Maddocks.

The research team, led

by Stuart Hodge, has spent “hours and hours” pouring over records on Parliament Hill. Their research uncovered about double the original number of names. The new names will be added later this

year and the plaque will be rededicated during this year’s Remembrance Day ceremony.

CEREMONY

Everyone is invited to the ceremony to see the culmination of the project that began in 2011.

“We’ve got the three legions signed up and the three groups of cadets signed up.

We’re inviting all the legions; if they have anybody who wants to join the march they can do that,” said Maddocks.

Also attending will be Kanata-Carleton MP Karen McCrimmon, West CarletonMarch Coun. Eli El-Chantiry, and Ottawa Mayor Jim Watson.

Carleton-Mississippi

Mills MPP Jack MacLaren hasn’t responded to the invitation yet.

A free shuttle service will be provided for veterans and those with mobility issues from the Carp Fairgrounds to the war memorial site.

Attendees are asked to arrive at the site by 1:30 p.m.

The West Carleton War Memorial – a non-profit, community-led project – is a permanent commemoration of the fallen in the First and Second World Wars, as well as

other conflicts where Canadians have served and died.

Many local businesses donated time and materials to complete the site, while the memorial was funded through community donations and Veterans Affairs Canada.

The site has been designated as a city park and will be used for future Remembrance Day ceremonies.

The quick thinking of three West Carleton youth saved an 85-year-old man’s life on June 3.

Avery Crouchman, 12, Ethan Larocque, 10, and Owen Peever, 11, were honoured with fire coins and certificates of merit at Station 62 on Monday, June 6.

The three boys had been hunting frogs in Fitzroy Harbour near a creek on June 3 when they saw an older man sitting on the ground. They thought he was enjoying the late afternoon, but when they waved at him, he didn’t respond, said Avery.

“We saw him, we said ‘hi’, but he didn’t respond,” said Ethan.

As the boys got closer, “He mouthed the word ‘Help,’” said Owen.

The gentleman, who suffers from dementia, had fallen down the embankment and his leg was wedged among large boulders, said Ottawa fire spokeswoman Danielle Cardinal.

Ethan, a Grade 5 student at Stonecrest Elementary School, stayed with the older gentleman to offer comfort and reassurance, while Owen and Avery, both Grade 6 students at St. Michael School

Ottawa fire crews extricated the driver of a vehicle following a rollover on Hwy 417 near the Kinburn off-ramp on Thursday, June 9.

The single vehicle collision occurred around 1:40 p.m. on the eastbound side of the highway.

The vehicle landed against a guardrail and the extri-

cation team had to use a number of tools including spreaders and cutters to get the driver out, said Ottawa fire spokeswoman Danielle Cardinal.

It took just over 30 minutes to extricate the single occupant, who was then transferred to paramedic care.

Early reports said the vehicle had rolled numerous times and someone may have been ejected, said Cardinal.

not have turned out so well,” said Bell.

He added the gentleman was “conscious and in good spirits,” when he was transferred to the paramedics.

AWARD

Ethan, Avery and Owen were presented with the certificates and fire coins during a special ceremony at Station 62 “for their quick thinking and courage,” said Cardinal.

The three boys said receiving the recognition was exciting and all their families, as well as the attending firefighters, were there for the event.

“We all got some awards, a coin and a certificate,” said Ethan. “It went pretty well.”

“They said ‘Well done,’” said Avery.

“They congratulated us,” added Owen.

The coins are inscribed with the words “observation, gallantry, tact and sympathy,” said Bell.

“These are all the attributes those boys showed that day, those are attributes of a firefighter,” he said. “We recognize those qualities and appreciate them, especially when it comes from the community and especially when it comes from kids.”

“I stayed and kept him calm and talking,” said Ethan. “I asked him a few questions, if he wanted some water, if he was alright.”

Owen and Avery went straight to the home of schoolmate Chas Manor where Chas’ dad called 911, said Owen.

The two boys then went back out to wait for emergency services and to let the gentleman know help was on the way, said Avery.

“It was just instinct,” said Ethan, when asked how they knew what to do.

Bill Bell, acting sector chief for District 6, attended the call along with firefighters from Station 62.

“It became evident that the three boys who were on scene were attending to the man,” said Bell.

Crews estimated the gentleman had been stranded among the rocks for close to three hours, said Cardinal.

“If the boys had not found him when they did, he may have spent the night outdoors or worse.”

“The crux of it is, number one, if the boys hadn’t found him and number two, didn’t react the way they did. It might have been a situation where he might have been left there all night. It may

Fire crews performed two sweeps of the area.

“There were no other persons found on scene,” said Cardinal.

Renfrew County paramedics responded to the scene as the closest ambulance in the area.

The patient was "conscious and alert," said John Godin, commander of Renfrew County paramedic service.

“It ensures patients gain quicker access to the services they need,” she said. “The link is a team built around the client. They design a care plan that works.”

Currently, the AROW Health Link has about 50 complex care clients. The co-lead organizations are Arnprior Regional Health and the Western Ottawa Community Resource Centre.

A complex patient is someone with four or more health conditions and includes vulnerable factors – such as being a senior, living alone, being unable to drive, or having cognitive impairments, she said. It can often be difficult for someone to keep track of all medical and emergency or clinic visits, medications and health assessments.

“Health Links brings care providers together to ensure the coordination of care for people with complex needs,” said Dean. “It puts patients and family care providers at the centre of the health system.”

In many cases, when someone with multiple health issues is ill or suffers an injury they call 911, an ambulance arrives and they’re taken to the emergency department. Their primary care physician often isn’t notified, which means proper follow-up care doesn’t happen and the situation repeats itself, Dean said.

“That’s the way it works right now and it’s very costly. (The patient is) going to take up resources, not because he wants to, but because there’s nothing else available.”

Health Links offers a care coordinator who links and synchronizes all aspects of a person’s medical care team so everyone remains up-to-date. It aims to cut down on duplication of services to offer the most immediate and beneficial care possible to keep clients healthy, said Dean.

“I think of it like a bicycle wheel,” she said. The client is at the centre,

“It’s early days and Health Links is still developing,” said Dean. The next step is “to get the word out there.” This means talking to doctors and other health care professionals to ensure people know about Health Links, she said.

Patients can self-refer to the program or request a referral from their doctor, said Dean. “But doctors need to know about this in order to refer.”

Carp parish to share wisdom across the ages Jessica Cunha jessica.cunha@metroland.com

A new project in Carp aims to bring seniors, families and young people together by sharing what they know.

The Anglican Parish of Huntley has launched a community-building project called Sharing Wisdom Across the Ages and will host a number of free events over the next 10 months thanks to funding from the federal government.

“The funding enables the community of Carp to create opportunities for people of all generations to develop relationships,” said Rev. Monique Stone.

“By having the funding, it means the costs are not a barrier for anyone to participate. The funding allows us to offer the programs for free.”

The events being planned include: • A three-hour cooking demonstration with a focus on quick, healthy recipes made with local produce.

• A history of Carp and free bus tour for up to 50 people that will visit sites of importance in the area. Guides will tell the stories of the Great Fire, early schools, and farming settlements, among others.

• Two knitting workshops that will partner long-practicing knitters with those who want to learn. Supplies will be offered free.

• A farming presentation that will highlight the agricultural roots of Carp and the importance of farming.

“These activities will aim to harness the expertise and wisdom of our rural elders who will provide knowledge and expertise in various activities that will reach out to new families, youth, children and individuals who have made Carp their home,” said Stone.

“The community events planned will help to foster intergenerational relationships throughout the community, while encouraging seniors to stay engaged, and active in their community,” said Jean-Yves Duclos, Minister of Families, Children and Social Development, in a press release.

The parish is one of a number of community partners taking part in the project, said Stone, and it’s looking for additional ideas from the community.

Anyone who wants to get involved is invited to call the parish office at 613-8393195 or contact the project co-ordinator Heidi Wieler at carpsharingwisdom@ gmail.com.

Constance Bay Community Market open for the season Staff

Fresh food and local product hunters have a new option in the Village of Constance Bay. Organizers of the Constance Bay Community Market (CBCM) celebrated the first market of the season on Saturday, June 11.

“The Constance Bay Community Market (CBCM) was created with the mission to provide an outstanding venue to promote our own to our own,” says the market website. “The CBCM is a non-profit marketplace managed and operated by a volunteer board of directors, a group of support volunteers and a manager. “ Organizers are thankful to St. Gabriel’s Roman Catholic Church for allowing the

market to operate on the beautiful church grounds, free of charge.

While markets had been held periodically in the past, this is the first season as an official market, said Cindy Pratt, who helped organize the market.

“We will be getting more vendors as the season progresses,” said Pratt.

“The CBCM’s vision is becoming a selfsustaining, regularly occurring, social destination that recognizes and meets the growing needs of the community,” says the website.

The market runs from 9 a.m. to noon every second Saturday on the following dates: June 25, July 9, July 23, Aug. 6, Aug. 20, Sept. 3, Sept. 20 and Oct. 1.

More information is available at marketinthebay.com.

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

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

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

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

No changes are proposed for departure routes.

EDITORIAL

Public safety should be priority No. 1

T

here was good news on the morning of June 8 when the earth opened up and a massive sinkhole swallowed a section of Rideau Street in downtown Ottawa.

Despite the giant hole in the heart of the city, no one was injured.

That no one was injured, except for the city’s civic pride, is a blessing considering the number of OC Transpo buses that go by the very spot where the road collapsed, not to mention all the cars and pedestrians who flow through that part of town on a weekday morning.

Within 24 hours city crews stabilized the sinkhole by pouring concrete into it, and the foundations of nearby buildings had all been secured and the hole was no longer expanding, according to the city.

Now the investigation into why this happened is underway. “It took a month for us to find the answers with the sinkhole on Waller Street, and this is significantly larger,� said Mayor Jim Watson during a media briefing with emergency services and city department heads the day after the large sinkhole made national headlines.

The media briefing was the second within 24

hours. And there are plenty of questions that need to be answered with the two most pressing before moving forward being: Did the tunnelling for the city’s light rail project have anything to do with the road collapsing and is the city’s infrastructure in such bad shape that water main pipes are bursting all over the place?

The mayor and senior city staff say it could take weeks to get Rideau Street in front of the Rideau Centre back in service, and may take a couple of months before all the answers to what went wrong are known.

The timeline is the least of the worries right now.

How long it takes to determine the reasons for this near tragedy is less important than getting those answers right, so that such a situation does not happen again, especially since there is a lot of tunnelling going on downtown for the LRT project.

What should be first and foremost in all of the investigations surrounding the sinkhole is that public safety should be the No. 1 priority going forward.

And that means if it takes a month or two, or even longer, to get to the bottom of this “hole� mess, so be it.

Homelessness needs to be faced head on

egardless of what finally happens with Ogilvie Square, the debate over it will turn out to be helpful for the city and those who live in it.

Last week the plans for the square were unveiled — a block-long plaza on Nicholas Street between Rideau and Besserer, closed to traffic and available for special events.

It will have trees and bicycle racks but no chairs or benches. Various reasons have been given for this, including the need to maintain access for emergency vehicles.

But that’s not what people are talking about. They’re talking about what seems to be a conscious effort to discourage panhandlers and homeless people, of which there are many in this part of town.

A city planner said that “we’ve chosen to take a more adaptable approach and be able to monitor

that people other than panhandlers need places to sit.

More significantly, they say that keeping homelessness out of sight is not the way to deal with it.

There are other opinions, of course, such as the view that the homeless are coddled in Ottawa, but they are far outnumbered by those who believe the city has made a mistake here.

Online Comments sections are not always accurate reflections of public opinion, but my guess is that City Hall is getting an earful on this subject and, on the basis of the strength of the arguments presented, will change its mind.

This was so close to a great idea — creating a new public space in an area that needs it, closing it to traffic, sticking some trees in there.

All it needed was something to make it more inviting, such as a 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

That would be nice for older people and people with disabilities, among others.

If that turned out not to work, for whatever reason, the city could always take the benches away. That might cost some money, but everything costs money. Putting up that elaborate playground at Mooney’s Bay costs money. All the 150th anniversary hoopla is costing money.

The homelessness issue is frustrating. But let’s not forget that it’s the homeless who are the most frustrated.

To those who say Ottawa coddles the homeless, imagine yourself in that position. It’s not a walk in the park. It’s frustrating and complicated and Ottawa has made some good efforts to help. What this debate shows is that there could be significant public support for more effort. As always, the key to solving homelessness is housing. There simply has to be more.

Animal ‘humane’ traps are seldom humane To the Editor: Re: What is a peaceful co-existence, anyway?

It’s encouraging to see that Diana Fisher, the Accidental Farmwife, is prepared to find more humane ways to deter wildlife from her property.

A “humane” trap is seldom humane, as most often it separates a mother from her kits, leaving the kits to die a slow and painful death of starvation.

The average age of raccoon kits right now is around 8-9 weeks old and they depend on their mother for at least another few months, although many stay with her much longer.

A large percentage of the kits that are orphaned each year result from people using a so-called “humane” trap to catch and relocate the adult animal.

We’ve found that most people

Play safe this summer

Dairy lobby clamours for big bureaucracy

To the Editor: As a member of The War Amps Child Amputee (CHAMP) Program and a Safety Ambassador for the PLAYSAFE Program, I have met kids who have lost limbs in accidents that could have been prevented.

With the weather warming up, it’s a good time to teach kids about the dangers that can come with summer, such as lawn mowers, boat motors and playing around water areas.

I encourage parents to go on a “safety walk” with their children and point out the hazards in their area.

By spreading the PLAYSAFE message, children learn to spot the danger before they play, and become more conscious of potential dangers.

It only takes a split second for an accident to happen, so let’s all PLAYSAFE! Rachel Quilty, 17

To the Editor: On Thursday, June 3, an estimated 2,500 dairy farmers stormed Parliament Hill to protest the increasing tariff-free imports of diafiltered milk ingredients of recent years, and the inaction of governments to date to close the loophole under the laws by which the ingredients are tariff-free.

What is curious in the fact of these protests is not that an interest group powerful enough to speak loudly for its own self-interest chooses to do so – that kind of behaviour is as predictable as the trajectory of the sun. Rather, what is interesting is how these farmers are unconsciously protesting the insanity of the same dairy monopoly that they forever lobby for.

These tariff-free imports threaten the bottom line of Canadian dairy farmers because their own production is unable to match the low cost of these imports. But Canadian farmers lack competitiveness with such imports not for reasons of lack of innovation – why would Canadian farmers in particular lack such skill - but instead for reasons that such low-cost production in Canada is, well, made illegal by the dairy monopoly.

who end up creating orphans do so unwittingly and are devastated when they are left with baby animals that have to be euthanized.

Wildlife are attracted to a property by either a food source or denning site. You have to alter the attraction to change the outcome, as trapping and relocating one animal simply opens up the site for another animal to move in. As they say, “nature abhors a vacuum.”

Since prospective Canadian producers by law cannot produce without quota, they cannot produce without the costs of buying into the government-manufactured quota system.

Of course the government could try enacting or enforcing laws against the import of diafiltered milk ingredients into Canada. But try to imagine veteran border services agents, dusting off their boots to seize and inspect mini-vans and compact cars from seat to seat, lest they dare to smuggle traces of milk powder from the south.

If Canadians do not laugh at the kind of big bureaucracy that the dairy lobby is demanding here, a bureaucracy big enough to enforce what looks so unenforceable, they will face more of the same ridiculous producer-oriented laws like the kind that made three-litre milk jugs illegal in Ontarian grocery stores before 2014.

The solution to deranged big bureaucracy schemes is not more of the same, but rather more actual freedom for consumers, please.

Stefan Klietsch Renfrew

Wildlife don’t understand property boundaries or as the article suggests, “venture into forbidden territory.”

If there is a food source such as the outdoor feeding station that is set up for cats, how is the raccoon to know it’s off-limits for her?

I understand there are more challenges for farmers than for other homeowners, but it still comes down to protecting your assets by proper animal-proofing.

The 57 baby chicks that were killed one night a few years ago could have been taken by any number of animals, a raccoon, skunk, weasel or fox. Hopefully, this time

OPINION

Connected to your community

Sittin’ on the hilltop, watching summer come over the horizon It’s 8:30 on a Sunday morning and I’ve already been in the garden for an hour.

I have waged a war against the grass encroachment on my veggies and so far, I appear to be winning the battle.

I’m not sure where my veggies are, however. I see two green bean plants, four beets, two clumps of kale and the beginnings of half a dozen potato plants.

Most of the tomato plants are still standing.

Maybe the rest of my seeds were duds. Or the drought got them. I may have to replant. I think I’ll start with seedlings this time. Maybe the Farmers’ Market will have some.

Speaking of the Farmers’ Market, I’m attempting to bring some things from my garden this year.

In the past I have sold chickens and turkeys and this year I am primarily there to sell my book, but I do have a garden.

Theoretically I will have produce to sell.

I’m starting this morning with bunches of fresh cut pink peonies,

DIANA FISHER Accidental Farmwife yellow and purple iris. The scent is heady as it fills the airspace in my truck, Dora the Explorer.

I hope to bring some farmfresh veggies to weekend markets over the summer, but I doubt I will get to bring many tomatoes.

The Farmer has “staked” a claim to those (see what I did there?) for his winter spaghetti sauce.

So far we have not managed to catch the raccoon that visits our porch each night.

I imagine he is so large that rather than getting lured into and trapped in the cage, he sits beside it, lifts it up over his head and shakes the bait food out of it, enjoying a midnight snack before going on to help himself to the leftover barn cat food.

I am hoping s/he is too fat,

old and lazy to attack my turkey chicks.

The chicks are doing quite well. They are tame and come to my brush their chests against my hand when I dangle my fingers in their pens.

A family of groundhogs lives under our falling-down playhouse in the backyard.

The little miniature farmhouse has become an unstable art installation in the past few years, with its weather-beaten roof, mosscovered porch rails and hole-y floor.

We really should take it down or shore it up, if that is possible, before our granddaughter is large enough to venture inside.

The groundhogs are hoping we don’t make that decision any time soon.

I can just imagine the infrastructure they have built beneath it.

The mother groundhog is the size of a large cat and her half dozen fat little babies look very happy and healthy indeed.

They are brave, too. They crept

out from under the playhouse when the farmer was working on his tractor and approached him in a line.

They were on their way to the rock pile at the fence, where they like to sun themselves in the warm afternoons, and he was in their path. They didn’t perceive him as a threat at all, and passed close by.

I told him I don’t think the groundhogs do any harm and they have been raising families on our property for years. So far, they get to stay.

We don’t have any crops for them to ruin and they aren’t interested in my garden until the veggies come up. We’ll see what happens then.

The cattle are enjoying springtime, taking their afternoon naps in the dark of the barn on hot days, out in the meadow on cool ones.

The Farmer is concerned they may be testing his fences, as the Gallagher electric wire he has installed doesn’t seem to be keeping all of them in.

We often see the calves on the wrong side of the fence, nibbling the sweet, fresh bushes along the fence line.

I guess they are small enough to limbo under the fence and maybe their hide is too thick for the charge.

The mamas and bull are still on the inside, where they belong, so we are ok for the moment.

When the scent of corn and apples hits the breeze, however, we may be in for some escape artists.

Those tempting smells bring out the bad behaviour in all of them. www.theaccidentalfarmwife. blogspot.com email: dianafisher1@gmail.com The Accidental Farmwife book can be ordered online at www. dianafisherbooks.com.

Let’s Stay In Touch 12 West Carleton Review - Thursday, June 16, 2016

The Ontario Liberal government’s “top down” climate plan is anti-democratic, according to local MPP John Yakabuski.

Ontario’s new Climate Change Action Plan released last week aims to continue to reduce greenhouse gas pollution by accelerating the use of clean technology.

Yakabuski and the PC Party now agree climate change is real and is man-made, but they don’t like Premier Kathleen Wynne’s strategy of forcing changes on people and business.

“We are completely on board and recognize this challenge is real. But you can’t dictate to people,” Yakabuski said, adding that industries were not consulted.

“Just because you want something to happen doesn’t mean you can make it happen in the time you want it. That is not democratic.

“The people need to be part of the process.”

He also takes issue with the Liberals’ way of framing climate talk as an us-versus-them situation.

Anyone who disagrees with them is labelled a climate change denier, Yakabuski said.

“Nothing could be further from the truth,” he said. “Everybody agrees we have to reduce the amount of carbon in the atmosphere, but without having to devastate our economy.”

The Climate Change Action Plan and cap and trade program, according to a government press release, form the backbone of Ontario’s strategy to cut greenhouse gas pollution to 15 per cent below 1990 levels by 2020, 37 per cent by 2030 and 80 per cent by 2050.

The government will report on the plan’s implementation annually and renew the plan every five years.

“The plan outlines the key actions the government will take to combat climate change, create good jobs in clean tech and construction, increase consumer choice and generate opportunities for investment in Ontario,” reads the press release.

The actions include:

• Establishing a green bank that would help homeowners and businesses access and finance energy-efficient technologies to reduce greenhouse gas pollution from buildings.

• Creating a cleaner transportation system by addressing greenhouse gas pollution from cars on the road today, increasing the availability of zero-emission vehicles on the road tomorrow, deploying cleaner trucks and making transit more available.

• Halting the ongoing rise in buildingrelated emissions by giving Ontarians more choices, incentives and tools to make the right energy choice for their homes and businesses, by providing better information about energy use by buildings and homes, and making new buildings increasingly energy efficient over time.

• Making Ontario one of the easiest and most affordable jurisdictions in North America for homeowners and businesses to install or retrofit clean-energy systems such as solar, battery storage, advanced insulation and heat pumps, while helping to protect and support low-income households, vulnerable communities and many renters from the cost impacts of carbon pricing.

• Supporting a carbon market that drives the lowest-cost greenhouse gas emission reductions. Actions in this plan, supported by cap and trade proceeds, will help business and industry make investments that reduce greenhouse gas pollution. This will help save energy costs, improve productivity and global competitiveness, and protect and create jobs.

• Working in partnership with First Nations and Métis communities to address climate change, with actions guided

by Traditional Ecological Knowledge, and helping to build capacity in these communities to participate in the economic opportunities that may arise from these actions.

• Building on progress, leading by example and acting on opportunities to make government operations carbon neutral. Ontario will achieve this by reducing

Canadian Propane praises cimate change plan The Canadian Propane Association (CPA) applauds the Ontario government’s Climate Change Action Plan, which includes the expanded use of propane in the transportation sector.

“The CPA supports the government›s efforts to reduce Ontario’s carbon footprint,” said Andrea Labelle, executive director of the Canadian Propane Association in a news release.

“We are pleased to see recognition by the Ontario government that propane has an important role to play. The propane industry can do so without government funding for infrastructure,” she added.

Within the transportation section of the Climate Change Action Plan, the government states that it intends to become “a North American leader in low carbon and zero emission transportation.”

greenhouse gas pollution across our facilities, operations and procurement.

• Ensuring that natural, agricultural and forested lands are used in ways that are efficient, sustainable and enhance the removal and storage of carbon from the atmosphere while working with Ontario’s waste sector to leverage different practices and technologies to capture greenhouse gas pollution that would otherwise be released into the air.

“Ontario is a world leader in the fight against climate change. We are committed to creating a low-carbon economy that will drive innovation, create more opportunities for business and industry, and generate high-value jobs,” Wynne said.

“Our government’s action plan is laying the foundation for cleaner air, a healthier environment, a stronger economy and a better future for our children and grandchildren.”

CARROTS, NO STICKS

Yakabuski said the $8 billion plan is made to look like “all carrots and no sticks,” but that the revenue to pay for the new incentives must come from business and taxpayers.

The Progressive Conservative energy critic also doubts the viability of converting natural gas usage to electricity.

The additional wiring and other hard infrastructure costs, the existing maxedout electrical grid, and the prospect of $150,000 added to new homes for the conversation, all make the plan untenable, he said.

“It’s a shell game. They need to raise the money from somewhere,” said the Renfrew-Nipissing-Pembroke MPP. “People are at the brick now with regard to energy costs.”

Asked if the forestry and agricultural industries will face restrictions, Yakabuski indicated that input costs could skyrocket.

“If costs go up, that affects demand,” he said.

“The bottom line is we can accomplish what is necessary without destroying our economy.”

Included in the strategy is the aim to increase the availability and use of low carbon fuels, such as propane.

“We look forward to working with the Government of Ontario on strategies that will see the increased use of propane in the transportation sector across the province,” said Labelle. “Our industry is already working with the government to reduce emissions by providing home energy retrofit opportunities to propane customers across Ontario, particularly in rural and remote areas,” said Labelle.

West Carleton high school students build home in Kanata Megan DeLaire mdelaire@metroland.com

On the eve of their last day of classes, a group of students from West Carleton Secondary School can point to a new house in Kanata when asked what they accomplished this year.

For those students who will graduate from the high school this spring, the project will have been one of their final high school achievements.

The group of Grade 11 and 12 students, including one from AY Jackson Secondary School in Kanata, built the frame of the house on Escallonia Court as part of the Ottawa Carleton District School Board’s house building program.

Work began on the house – at that point only a concrete foundation and a load of lumber – near the end of March, and the students worked on site from 8 a.m. to 2:15 p.m. Monday to Thursday each week until May 26, at which point other trades

took over to apply the finishing touches to the home.

“We start with the materials and a set of plans and build from there,” said James Patterson, who teaches construction in the school’s specialist high skills major program.

Patterson said that between the practical experience and safety certifications gained through their participation in the program, many of the students are now qualified to work in construction and can enter the workforce directly from high school.

“Coming out of that they already have hundreds of dollars worth of certification that an employer would have to pay for if they were to hire them,” Patterson said. “So it just gives them a leg up.”

The program offers students 16 and older four credits for completing a home building theory course and a practical assignment – the construction of an actual house.

Member of Parliament Kanata-Carleton Kanata LRT This week I had the pleasure of being with the Mayor and Councillors Hubley and Wilkinson as we announced the environmental assessment to bring the LRT to Kanata.

Although there is much work to be done, it is gratifying to work with City officials who understand how import light rail is to Kanata residents, and our businesses.

A Successful Town Hall – Let’s Talk # 3 It was wonderful to see 146 people attend our Town Hall and Fundraising BBQ that was held on June 5th. We were delighted to have Minister McKenna join us to introduce the discussion on the environment and climate change.

Following a lively exchange of ideas, participants had the chance to ‘vote’ on those items that they felt were the top priorities to combat climate change. The top issues were: (1) high speed and light rail investment locally and nationally (2) damaged lands rehabilitation and pollution (3) investments in renewable energies, and (4) national interests before corporate. I also had the privilege of presenting a cheque for $621 to the Canadian Red Cross for Ft McMurray relief efforts, from donations received from Constituents. Thank you to all.

Cadet Annual Parades Congratulations to 872 Kiwanis Kanata and 706 Ottawa Snowy Owl Royal Air Force Cadet Squadrons for their performances on their annual parades. It was evident by talking to many of the cadets that we have an exceptional group of fine young men and women – who have clearly shown the very best in leadership, community spirit and professionalism – living in our Riding. A great job was done by all and I send a special thank you to their instructors, leaders and parents!

Naturalists gathering features generosity of community here and in North At the Mississippi Valley Field Naturalists (MVFN) annual Spring Gathering, Jennifer Kingsley’s ‘Meet the North’ presentation and the generosity of communities near and far shone brightly.

The sold-out event saw more than 150 in the community enjoy a reception and banquet dinner in the Almonte Civitan Community Hall decorated with the color and glow of the ‘Northern Lights’.

Through the keynote presentation, members were privileged to meet many generous people who are making a good life for themselves and their families in Northern communities (in locales such as Longyearbyen, Svalbard; Pond Inlet, Nunavut; Iceland), and who invited guest speaker journalist/naturalist Jennifer Kingsley into their homes and lives as she traveled to ‘Meet the North’ one introduction at a time.

It seemed as if the Arctic circle curved south for this one night as the attendees learned quite unexpected things about Northern life from the sparkling personality of Kingsley.

On her journey, Kingsley explained, she has had to “let

At Mississippi Valley Field Naturalists’ Spring Gathering, Jennifer Kingsley shared her ‘Meet the North’ stories and signed copies of her award-winning book ‘Paddle North: Adventure, Resilience and Renewal in the Arctic Wild.’ Photo Pauline Donaldson expectations go” and the result she said is summed up with the word “unexpected.” Enjoying tea in Pond Inlet made with fresh water collected from a nearby iceberg.

The unexpected stories from ‘Meet the North’ were told formally for the first time at MVFN’s Spring Gathering, leaving the audience intrigued and humbled by many special moments, for example images

of a group of people with divergent political views together “singing their hearts out” in a coal mine in a distant Norwegian archipelago.

The stories were all brought to life in the images of photographer Eric Guth, carried south and shared by Kingsley. You can follow the continuing journey on-line on Kingsley’s ‘Meet the North’ blog.

The generosity of the local community also shone very brightly on this Spring Gathering evening. Thanks to the support of bidders and individuals and business who contributed to a silent auction, more than $3,000 was raised for MVFN’s Environmental Education program. This program is currently supporting Monarch butterfly conservation education at 17 local and nearby primary schools.

Using provided plants, soil, and milkweed seeds butterfly gardens are being, or have al-

ready been, developed and are being nurtured. A special thank you to the following contributors for enabling these efforts.

At the Spring Gathering, the 2016 Cliff Bennett Nature Bursary Award was presented to St. John Catholic High School (Perth) student Erin Symon who will begin a fouryear Bachelor of Arts degree program in Environmental and Resource Studies in September.

In addition to the student award, two MVFN Champion for Nature awards were presented, to recognize individuals or groups for outstanding achievements in wildlife conservation, and whose actions have raised awareness and contributed to the protection of local natural heritage. Dr. Tineke Kuiper, a resident of Wolf Grove and former MVFN Board member and program chair, was nominated for her tireless research work making presentations and providing support and advice regarding development of Natural Heritage System policies for Mississippi Mills and for heading up MVFN’s recent efforts to prevent development within Burnt Lands Alvar.

A second 2016 Champion for Nature award was presented to Ray Holland, a “transporting angel of injured birds.” Lynda Bennett: “There is nothing Ray would not do to protect any living species.”

In the 1980s Holland helped Kathy Nehei save hundreds of Ring-billed gulls and as a resident of Pakenham, he has spent a lifetime studying birds and their habitat. He watched over and cared for the female Bullock’s Oriole found in Pakenham last March.

YEARS YEARS

Myths of the purple mosquito-eaters When I was growing up in Arnprior, Purple Martins were everywhere. Anyone with a multi-room birdhouse had it occupied by those delightful giant swallows.

Today, many of those houses sit empty, and sadly the cheerful chortles of martins are increasingly less heard. The reasons for the decline are not clear, but a decrease in flying insects might be involved.

I saw a lot of martins and heard many stories about them. A popular tale was retold each late April when the first martin returned. It was always a single, stunning male - the only all-purple bird in North America - that would arrive at a martin house.

The lone bird would choose the uppermost of the dozen or more available rooms and sit there, chortling away.

This phenomenon was explained as follows. Each year a single scout was sent back to a martin house to see if environmental conditions were suitable for other martins to return.

When deemed safe, other martins would come back, although an explanation as to how the scout communicated the conditions to his fellow martins without flying south to meet them was never of-

Michael Runtz Nature’s Way fered.

Another “fact” was behind the popularity of martin houses in Arnprior and other locations throughout North America. Proud owners of martin houses stated that their occupants ate huge numbers of mosquitoes and thus were beneficial birds to have in their backyards.

How many mosquitoes did a martin eat, you might wonder? According to the locals and to popular literature, a martin ate as many as 2,000 mosquitoes each day! It was no wonder that martin houses became the rage in eastern North America 50 years ago.

Later in life I learned that both

“facts” were anything but truth.

As for sending up a scout to check out conditions in spring, the reason a single martin arrived well ahead of others in a colony was by no means an altruistic one.

The “scout” was actually an adult male that returned early to keep other mature males away from his house. Only females and young males were allowed to join the colony.

Although the mature male had his own mate, he also “visited” the females of the younger males so that his genes were well represented through the colony!

Thus, the reason single males arrived back early was, genetically speaking, a purely selfish one.

The other myth concerned the martins’ diet. Martins feed in the daytime and typically forage high up, as much as 50 metres above the ground, catching dragonflies, beetles and other flying insects. But Martins seldom if ever eat mosquitoes.

So how did the “fact” of 2,000 mosquitoes per day come into existence? It seems that a martin house manufacturer hired an advertising agency to promote its product. The agency had a brilliant idea: declare that martins eat thousands of mos-

MICHAEL RUNTZ

Purple Martins, once solitary birds nesting in tree cavities, now only nest in man-made, multi-room birdhouses. The pale-breasted birds are females. quitoes per day.

As a result, martin house sales soared and Purple Martins spread through North America. Yet, despite an explosion in the martin population, mosquito numbers

failed to drop one tiny bit.

Which reinforces the old adage: if it seems to be too good to be true, it probably is!

Christine Brackenbury is very much like the library she loves – overflowing with stories.

The Carp artist and member of the West Carleton Arts Society currently has a number of paintings on display at the Carp Library and each one has a tale behind it.

Brackenbury, a member of two local book clubs, points out the details in each, how they came to be and the people involved.

There’s a grouping of five paintings that originated from a day watching dirt bike races in the woods – something her husband loves; another is portrait of a local mechanic in his element; one boasts a view of the Ottawa River from Constance Bay on a calm evening after her husband paddled out of the picture; and another features a happy family moment, the birth of a child, before all heck broke loose when the older sister learned her mom wasn’t coming home

JESSICA CUNHA/METROLAND

Carp artist Christine Brackenbury poses with some of her work that’s on display at the Carp library. right away.

But she doesn’t want to discuss herself or her art; her purpose, she said, is to praise the library and the people there.

“I see myself as a goodwill ambassador,” she said. “Don’t take your libraries and librarians for granted.”

Libraries are important, she said. Often the heart of a community they are a re-

source rich in history and stories.

Her son Oliver, now a published author, wrote his first book at age five to donate to the branch. The library now carries copies of his more current work.

Brackenbury was seven years old when she got her first library card in England and fell in love with books and reading.

“You see so many things and people and places – you can disappear into another world,” she said.

When she moved to Carp in 1977, Brackenbury became involved in forming the West Carleton township public library, which has since become the Carp branch of the Ottawa Public Library.

Carol Millerwood, Brackenbury’s neighbour, would drive around the area to lend books from the back of a car nicknamed the 'Bookmobile', said Brackenbury.

“She and this retired colonel – I don’t remember his name – would drive in their car with the books,” she said.

From there, a space was found in the basement of the Memorial Hall, overseen by director Wendy McKay. As the library outgrew its space, it was decided a new location was needed.

“Next thing I knew, I was heading (the committee),” she said. “The community came together.”

Brackenbury and others involved collected signatures,

held fundraising events, and finally commissioned a study to allow the library to move to its current location near the Diefenbunker.

“And now we’ve got this big beautiful library,” said Brackenbury, who along with her husband Eric have run a booth selling custom jewellery at the Carp Farmers’ Market every week since it opened.

The community continues to come together every year to raise funds for the local library, as well as the locations in Fitzroy and Constance Bay, with the Diefenbooker run.

Brackenbury took part this year and said it was wonderful to see so many people supporting the library.

“There’s so much going on here,” she said. “All the stories; it’s important to have community.”

The branch is currently gearing up for its summer programming that will be offered throughout July and August.

Brackenbury’s work is on display at the Carp library throughout June.

West students among 50 across Ottawa enrolled in home building program Continued from page 13

Each session runs for a semester, during which students continue to earn credits in other areas such as math, and students can participate for more than one semester.

Some join in Grade 11 and return for Grade 12, Patterson said.

During the first half of the semester, students learn safety training and construction theory in a classroom setting.

Lesson subjects range from foundations and framing to mechanical systems, finishing and career opportunities.

“The students learn how to read plans, and it all starts in class with some theory,” Patterson said. “They learn kind of a basic idea in the classroom, but once they get out on site, then it’s a little easier for them to comprehend everything.”

In the spring, the groups go to build sites belonging to a community builder – in the case of the Escallonia

lot, Mattamy Homes – which partner with the school board to help make the practical half of the program possible.

Patterson said it’s those partnerships with community builders that make the program worthwhile for the students who participate.

You feel really proud looking at what you’ve done.

NICK SAVOIE

“For them to step up and say ‘Hey, we’ll work with you’, it’s really made this program that much better to have,” Patterson said. “To have someone like Mattamy really help us develop these kids, develop their skills, and let them see what there is out there.”

Nick Savoie, 17, is set to complete his second semester in the program and gradu-

ate from West Carleton this spring. Although involved in construction for the past few years, having worked with his father during summer breaks and taken construction courses throughout high school, he said participation in the program has directly altered his career path.

“It’s a life changer. It really helps open your eyes, and what you learn is just incredible,” he said. “I wasn’t interested in (framing) before, and now that I’ve done it, I really enjoy it and I like doing it.”

For Savoie, who has already started looking for work, one of the most valuable assets he has gained from his two semesters in the program has been the confidence that comes with building something as substantial as a new home.

“You feel really proud looking at what you’ve done, just being in Grade 12,” he said. “And it’s like ‘I built this house’ you know?”

Annual Carp Fly-In Breakfast lands on Father’s Day Jessica Cunha

jessica.cunha@metroland.com

Fly in or drive in, everyone is invited to the annual Carp Fly-In Breakfast and Open House this Sunday, June 19.

Celebrate Father’s Day with a behind-thescenes look at Carp Airport, with the added bonuses of a hearty diner-style breakfast, aircraft demonstrations, Young Eagles flights, and many small and large planes to view.

Hosted by the Experimental Aircraft Association (EAA) Chapter 245 out of the Carp Airport, the annual event gives the public a chance to experience the atmosphere of a small busy airport.

“Bring dad out to see the planes – it’ll be non-stop flying all morning,” said Ken Potter, member of the EAA. “It’s a chance for pilots to get out and be social and a chance for us to show off our planes and facilities to the public.”

It isn’t often people get to spend time in airports – aside from busy terminals – and the Fly-In Breakfast offers “an inside look at everything that goes on,” said Potter.

Chapter 245 has members from across Ottawa and has been a “major presence in the local aviation community for over 30 years,” said Potter.

Pilots attend the breakfast from all over Ontario, with some flying in from Quebec and New York State. Last year saw one pilot come all the way from Washington, D.C. “Pilots are notorious for spending $100 to buy a hamburger,” said Potter with a laugh.

A pilot from Eganville will be flying in a Czech jet fighter that will be on display, as will the Zenith 750 Cruzer aircraft the chap-

ter is currently building.

The group was gifted with a set of wings and decided to construct the whole airplane as a chapter project, said Potter, adding they may have the public help with some of the building during the Fly-In Breakfast.

And if the weather is good, Young Eagles flights will be offered to children and teens ages eight to 17 on a first-come first-served basis. The Young Eagle program gives youth an opportunity to fly and gain an appreciation of airplanes.

“We hope to fly a bunch of kids, give them an opportunity to get in the air for the first time,” said Potter. “We want it to be a really positive first experience.”

There will also be a rib-building workshop for children, a model airplane display and the Carp fire station will have a truck on scene for people to check out. Pilots and Paws, a pet rescue organization, will also have a booth on hand for the event.

“The pilots fly dogs, cats, owls that have been injured, all over North America,” said Potter. “They’ll be describing what they do.”

The hearty breakfast will feature scrambled eggs, sausages, ham, beans and toast, with juice, coffee or tea between 7:30 and 10:30 a.m. The cost is $8 for adults and $5 for children under 12.

“The public get a really good breakfast – my wife is making beans for 350 people,” Potter said.

The entire event runs from 7:30 to 11 a.m. at the Carp Airport, 1500 Thomas Argue Rd. For more information, visit 245.eaachapter.org or facebook.com/EAA245. People can also email Potter for details at treasurer@eaa245.org or call 613-791-6267.

The Corkery Firefighters’ recent pancake breakfast was a fundraiser for the Gainforth family. Incorrect information appeared in a June 9 West Carelton Review photo spread. Don Gainforth is paralyzed from the shoulders down after a fall last year. Fundraising efforts have reached almost $47,500 of $75,000. See https://www.gofundme.com/don-gainforth for more. The West Carleton Review apologizes for any confusion that may have resulted.

Help the West Carleton Food Access Centre Load the Hay Wagon Jessica Cunha jessica.cunha@metroland.com

The second annual Load the Hay Wagon with food and cash donations for the West Carleton Food Access Centre is set for Saturday, June 25.

The shelves at the local food bank tend to get a little lean over the summer months and this event helps ensure the food access centre can help every person who needs it, said Karin Smith, co-fundraising coordinator with Pam Ross.

“The summer is always a really, really bad time for the food bank; donations drop off,” said Smith. “If we can get them stocked up beforehand that would be great.”

The food access centre’s requests for service have continued to grow over the past year. It filled 453 orders in 2015, up from 406 the previous year. This year has continued the upward trend

with 51 orders filled in February and April 2016, and a record 56 requests for service in March.

“It certainly doesn’t go down in the summer,” said Smith about the number of orders filled.

The inaugural Load the Hay Wagon event was a huge success last year, she said. The fundraiser filled 49 boxes with non-perishable items and “quite a bit of cash,” said Smith. “One man gave us $1,500. We were just stunned. He just turned and left before we could say anything.”

Another family held a garage sale on the same day and delivered their proceeds to the centre’s volunteers at the end of the day.

“The whole community is just so awesome. Everybody pitches in and does little things,” said Smith.

The centre is hoping for a similar turnout this year.

Items that are in short sup-

ply include toiletries, particularly feminine products, said Smith. “That’s something people never think to give.”

Juice boxes, unfrozen freezies and all other nonperishables will be happily accepted, she said.

The food access centre also offers about 10 Good Food Boxes to clients on a first-come first-served basis every month. If people would like to sponsor a family that would help the centre provide more fresh produce to those in need.

The hay wagon will be at the Carp Farmers’ Market on Saturday, June 25, from 8 a.m. to 1 p.m. Supporters are reminded to check the expiration date on non-perishables as expired food can’t be accepted. Cheques are payable to the West Carleton Food Access Centre.

For more information, contact Pam Ross at 613-9134234 or email wcfoodaid@ gmail.com.

Tomlinson opens new waste recovery centre in Carp Road corridor John Curry john.curry@metroland.com

JOHN CURRY/METROLAND

Ottawa mayor Jim Watson, centre, cuts the red ribbon to open the new Tomlinson Construction Waste Recovery Centre in the Carp Road business corridor June 11. He is joined by councillors Marianne Wilkinson, Allan Hubley and Eli El-Chantiry, and Ron Tomlinson of the Tomlinson Group, Ottawa Coun. Scott Moffatt with his daughter Peyton and Kevin Cinq-Mars, president of Tomlinson. from the debris stream.

It was pointed out that this sorting centre creates virtually no dust and that the operation is quiet enough that the workers can listen to music in the facility as they do their sorting.

Touring beneath this second storey sorting centre, the tour group discovered bin after bin, each holding one of the sorted items such as plastics and drywall.

There is an area where wood chips are collected, a popular bed-

ding product for the agricultural community.

Timmins said that adjustments are still being made to the facility such as adjusting the air pressure in some of the conveyor lines to ensure maximum functioning.

Cinq-Mars noted that the Tomlinson Group, which now operates in both Canada and the United States, was founded in 1952 by Ralph Tomlinson with a just one single-axle dump truck.

The company has now become a

leader in transportation infrastructure and environmental services.

Paraphrasing that famous phrase attributed to Julius Caesar about 47 B.C., namely “I came; I saw; I conquered,” dignitaries attending the public unveiling and ribbon-cutting at the new Tomlinson Construction Waste Recovery Centre in the Carp Road business corridor at Richardson Sideroad could claim “I came; I toured; I opened.”

The dignitaries who took part in touring the new state-of-the-art facility before participating in a brief ceremony included Ottawa mayor Jim Watson, Nepean-Carleton MPP Lisa MacLeod, and city of Ottawa councillors Allan Hubley of Kanata South ward, Marianne Wilkinson of Kanata North ward, Eli El-Chantiry of West CarletonMarch ward and Scott Moffatt of Rideau-Goulbourn ward.

They were given a tour of the facility by Lee Timmins, assistant manager, projects and municipal business development at Tomlinson Environmental Services, and Michael Clement, general manager of the environmental division for Tomlinson Environmental Services.

Among others on hand for the tour and ribbon-cutting included Kevin Cinq-Mars, president of Tomlinson, and Jason Wagner, operations manager of the new facility.

The dignitaries on the tour were shown everything, right from where the construction debris is initially dumped by contractor customers to examining a residue product that is considered ideal as cover for landfill.

And in between, what did they see?

They saw a maze of covered conveyor belts that have a roller coaster appearance, but which serves to separate the waste into different recovery streams. There are even magnets along the way that pick out metal objects.

The visitors climbed steel stairs to visit the sorting area where 14 staff members separate the materials as they move into and through the area on a conveyor belt. There are two long conveyor belts from which the items are picked and allocated to a particular destination such as a bin for plastics or a bin for drywall.

This sorting centre can process more than 50 tonnes of construction debris and remnant material per hour, which adds up to 500 tonnes per day. The facility is able to recover or recycle a minimum of 80 per cent of the construction materials delivered for processing, keeping them out of the landfill.

And it is expected that this 80 per cent figure will increase over time as markets open up for the materials currently going unrecovered.

Even stone and rock is removed

said while noting that the new facility is all about diverting waste from landfills.

West Carleton ward councillor Eli El-Chantiry expressed appreciation for the fact that this new Tomlinson Construction Waste Recovery Centre could recover 80 per cent of home construction and home renovation materials, keeping them out of the landfill.

And as he said this, he noted that the site of the new facility was within virtual viewing distance of the Carp Road landfill site over which there has been such controversy in recent years.

Mayor Jim Watson, before cutting the ribbon to open the new facility, stated that society today cannot just keep burying its garbage.

This is why facilities like this new Tomlinson Construction Waste Recovery Centre are needed, he said.

New Hydro One ombudsman hears rural complaints Kelly Kent kkent@metroland.com

Don’t shoot the messenger.

On Thursday, June 9, rural residents had the opportunity to voice their frustrations to the new Hydro One ombudsman, Fiona Crean, at a public meeting at the Greely Community Centre.

Hosted by MPP Lisa MacLeod, Osgoode Coun. George Darouze, Rideau-Goulbourn Coun. Scott Moffatt and Gloucester-South Nepean Coun. Michael Qaqish, the meeting was part of a tour of meetings Crean will conduct in the coming weeks. Attendees were encouraged to express all of their concerns and ask all of their tough questions about Hydro One’s service.

“I actually think that complaining is a good thing,” Crean said to the packed crowd gathered at the meeting. “It’s a courageous thing, and it’s a time consuming thing.”

Another meeting was held the following evening in Kinburn. See next week’s Review for the story.

Crean’s job is to mediate the relationship between Hydro One and its customers, ensuring that residents are not being treated unfairly.

“I investigate complaints about the unfairness in the delivery of services,” she said, adding that her main focus is to make sure all residents are treated with respect.

Hydro One has only recently created an ombudsman position and hired Crean in March. She’s received more than 700 complaints since then, and they just keep rolling in.

Residents of rural Ottawa have been dealing with high hydro bills since before amalgamation. Several rural residents are serviced by Hydro One, while urban residents in the core of the city are serviced by Hydro Ottawa. While the two companies charge the same rates for hydro, Hydro One’s delivery charges are an added expense that has many residents struggling to pay.

“Hydro One (bills) are too high,” said Osgoode Coun.

George Darouze. “I hear about it from residents all the time. People can simply not afford this any longer.”

Ward 5 West Carleton-March Congratulations to three young heros Ottawa Fire Services (OFS) recently honoured three boys for their life saving efforts. Avery Crouchman, Ethan Larocque and Owen Peever were recognized at a ceremony at Fire Station 62 in Fitzroy Harbour for their quick thinking and courage. On June 3, 2016, the boys were hunting frogs at a creek when they found an elderly gentleman who had fallen down an embankment and his leg became wedged among some large boulders. Avery, Ethan and Owen were instrumental in notifying OFS. Ethan helped keep the gentleman safe and provided comfort and reassurance.

The two other boys ran to the road to flag down emergency personnel. The OFS crew from Station 62 was the first to arrive and they safely removed the man from the embankment. Crews suspect he had been stranded there for close to three hours. If the boys had not found him when they did, he may have spent the night outdoors or worse.

The latest on LRT & changes in 2018 to transit service Last week it was announced that the City of Ottawa will begin the planning work needed to extend light rail transit (LRT) from Bayshore to Kanata. Staff will be preparing the first stage of the Environmental Assessment for Bayshore Station to Palladium Drive over the summer, so that the Statement of Work will be ready for Transportation Committee this September. This is great news for west-end transit users. Stay tuned for updates as things progress.

On a related note, on June 7 OC Transpo released three reports that include important information about changes to transit service that will be made when the O-Train Confederation Line opens in 2018.The changes will affected the everyday trips of most transit users. The reports are: Bus Service Identification, OC Transpo 2018 Route Network, and OC Transpo Fare System. The reports are available for review on ottawa.ca. If you are a transit user, I highly recommend reviewing them to familiarize yourself with the changes being planned.

The west-end residence run by the Shepherds of Good Hope is in need of funds to help fix the building’s aging infrastructure.

“It’s our first effort to help raise money for so much updating that is needed at Hope Living,” said one of the organizers, Ruth Cameron. “We raised over $10,000. We had six fantastic good-sport models.”

The event, held on May 7, featured woman’s fashions modeled by local men – including West Carleton-March Coun. Eli El-Chantiry – a silent and live auction, and dinner provided by the Glen Scottish Pub and Restaurant.

“Our guests loved it,” said Cameron, who lives in Richmond. “We had several large trays of lasagna left and the Glen donated it to Hope Living Residence and all leftover baking (went) there too.”

The proceeds from the event will help the Kanata residence, which provides supportive living to about 90 residents, repair dam-

age caused by a flood and update its existing infrastructure, including flooring and bathrooms.

BOUTIQUE

Hands for Hope volunteers have developed a clothing boutique with both men’s and women’s clothing at the Hope Living Residence.

Open two days a week, the boutique enables residents to peruse the selection and “choose anything they want or need,” said Cameron.

“It’s probably the first time a lot of them have ever had really nice clothing. We make each and every one of them feel special.”

Donations of gently used clothing, shoes and accessories for men and women of all sizes – from extra small to plus-size – are needed, she said.

“We are always needing people to donate their nearly new clothing that they don’t want anymore,” said Cameron. “We also need shoes, running shoes and sandals.”

Donations can be dropped off in a box on Cameron’s front porch at 118 Royal York St. in Richmond or at Hope Living at 145 Castlefrank Rd. in Kanata.

OCDSB approves $864.8M budget for 2016-2017 school year The Ottawa-Carleton District School Board (OCDSB) has approved an $864.8 million budget for school year 2016-2017 that cuts some jobs, but not as many as originally feared.

The 2016-2017 budget represents the second year of a three-year plan to more closely align spending with Ministry of Education funding levels. The largest budget investment is in the area of instruction where $636.7 million is allocated - representing almost 74 per cent of the total annual budget.

Additional areas of investment include $88.2 million to school facilities, $40.8 million to amortization, $37.9 million to transportation, $18.3 million to central administration, $16.3 million in extended day and childcare, $9.7 million in debt repayment and $9.6 million to continuing education.

In developing the budget, staff and trustees were guided by the following principles: • Where possible enhance student learning through program reviews and optimize any grant funding opportunities; • Improve business and operational efficiencies to generate savings and /or new revenue; • Review staffing allocations models to ensure equity, reduce duplication/overlays, and ensure sustainability in alignment with funding levels; • Use attrition as the mechanism for full time equivalent staffing reductions wherever possible; • Look for opportunities to defer expenditures until savings can be generated in future years from more efficient use of space “It was a challenging budget, but under 30 West Carleton Review - Thursday, June 16, 2016

the direction of budget chair Keith Penny, trustees worked diligently to identify budget changes that aligned with the district’s core mandate,” said board chair Shirley Seward “All decisions were looked at through the lens of equity, while respecting the fiscal realities facing the district.”

“Every effort was made in the preparation of this budget to recommend changes that maintain our commitment to student achievement and well-being,” said director of education Jennifer Adams. “I would like to thank our staff, trustees, budget committee members and our partners for the time and interest they invested in our budget process.”

The approved budget positions the school district well for the 2016-2017 school year.

In September, the OCDSB will open three new elementary schools in high growth areas, which is expected to have a positive impact on elementary enrolment. In addition, the district will begin a multi-year accommodation review allowing the opportunity to identify and implement changes that will improve learning opportunities for all students; the consolidation of underutilized pupil space; and the reinvestment of savings to more direct services for students.

It could result in the closing of some schools in the district.

The Ottawa-Carleton District School Board provides quality education to nearly 73,000 full and part-time students from junior kindergarten to Grade 12; including adult learners enrolled at our Adult High School and Continuing Education programs.

City crews work to find cause of Rideau Street sinkhole jennifer.mcintosh@metroland.com

Despite a massive sinkhole opening up and swallowing a van in front of the Rideau Centre on June 8, everyone’s been accounted for, said Mayor Jim Watson.

“At this point we have no record of any injuries or missing persons,” Watson said.

“All of our efforts are concentrated on determining the cause of the situation and completing the necessary repairs as soon as possible.”

The sinkhole stretches from sidewalk to sidewalk on Rideau Street.

A water main and a gas line also burst, resulting in the immediate evacuation of businesses and other properties on Rideau from Sussex Drive to Dalhousie Street.

Three hours later, Mayor Jim Watson, and fire and police leaders were on hand to take questions from the media.

NO ANSWERS

There weren’t a lot of answers to give, as the sinkhole was still filled with water, but crews were working with engineers to determine what parts of the area are stable enough to get in and have a look, said acting general manager of community and protective services Anthony Di Monte “It’s a very methodical process,” he said.

Water and gas were shut off to the area in the minutes after the sinkhole appeared, and firefighters worked to make sure the gas leak didn’t pose a safety risk.

Crews were working on tunnelling the last 50 metres before the Rideau Station of the future Confederation LRT line, Watson said, but the work was “substantially below” where the sinkhole appeared.

UNSTABLE SOIL CONDITIONS

INVESTIGATION CONTINUES

Di Monte said emergency workers will continue to investigate the cause to help formalize a plan to reopen the area, but couldn’t say when that would be.

OC Transpo GM John Manconi said all downtown buses have been rerouted to Mackenzie King Bridge. Gatineau STO buses have also been rerouted.

Manconi advised residents to be prepared for delays on the drive home and the morning commute on June 9.

Regulation 545/06, notice is hereby provided that a Zoning By-law amendment proposal is OTTAWA.CA.

Watson was set to tour the area after the media briefing.

He urged residents to keep apprised of the situation at ottawa.ca.

The ByWard Market Business Improvement Area showed their support for business owners affected by evacuations.

“We at the ByWard Market BIA wish to express our deep concern for those impacted by the temporary closure of Rideau Street and the evacuation of the Rideau Centre,” a Facebook post read.

Peggy DuCharme, executive director of the Downtown Rideau BIA was not immediately available for comment.

Steve Cripps, head of the rail implementation office, said workers were aware of the unstable soil conditions in the area and were using world-class equipment to tunnel, and were reinforcing as they went.

This is the second sinkhole to open up in the downtown core.

The one on Waller Street in 2014 was attributed to the water main, and the tunnel

builders – Rideau Transit Group – picked up the tab for the extra expense.

Cripps said that’s the benefit of the fixed, $2.1-billion price of the city’s light rail contract.

Watson said it’s unclear whether aging infrastructure had a role to play.

The water main was replaced in 1992 – making it a relatively “young” water main.

The street was due to be refurbished at the same time as LRT construction.

Alfredsson scores a doctor of laws from Carleton Michelle Nash Baker michelle.nash@metroland.com

Week In Review One of the big public meetings that many residents, including myself, have been looking forward to for quite some time was the Hydro One Ombudsman meeting. Well over 200 people came out to the meeting and many stood up to express their frustrations and aggravations with Hydro One. Issues included billing practices, high rates, arbitrary changes, poor customer services and much much more. Although the Hydro One Ombudsman couldn’t give answers to everyone’s questions right away there were many positives that did come of it. She committed to getting responses to everyone that left their contact information and inquires with her. She committed to be available to continue to take complaints about Hydro One and urged people to call her. Most notably, she committed to making all her reports public. I thank MPP Lisa MacLeod for organizing to have the Hydro One Ombudsman come to Greely to listen to the rural voice, I thank my colleagues Councillor Moffatt and Councillor Qaqish for co-hosting with us, but most importantly the meeting would not have been a success if it wasn’t for everyone that came out and for everyone that spoke up. We continue to stand strong and together on this issue and every step is a step forward to pushing for a change. Let’s continue to be heard and continue to get signatures on my Fair Hydro for Ottawa petition!

Captain, Olympian, and community builder. Now Daniel Alfredsson can add doctor to his name.

Alfredsson and Gail Asper, a humanitarian and advocate for human rights, received honourary degrees from Carleton University during the school’s convocation on June 7.

The former Ottawa Senators captain joked he only had to deliver a five minute speech to receive his doctor of laws — adding he knew all the graduates seated before him had to work a lot harder.

The Sweden-born, adopted Canadian told the audience when he came to Ottawa in 1994 all he knew was hockey, but that if any of the new graduates work hard at something they know, love and are passionate about, anything is possible.

“Believe in yourself,” Alfredsson said. “I know it’s a cliche, but the best cliches get repeated because they are true.”

Alfredsson added nothing is hard work when it’s your passion.

Carleton recognized Alfredsson, not only for his contributions to hockey, but for his commitment to the community.

Alfredsson said it was eight years ago when he began raising awareness and has worked to overcome the stigma that surrounds mental health issues.

“It is a part of my life, and my future. It gives me MICHELLE NASH BAKER/METROLAND strength and is my inspiration,” he told the graduates, adding they should seize what is their inspiration and Former Ottawa Senators captain Daniel Alfredsson receives an honourary degree from Carleton University on June 7. never give up.

Alfredsson agrees to one-year extension as Sens advisor Our second free “BBQ in the park” was held in Osgoode Village at the community centre as part of the annual Osgoode Village community garage sale. We had our volunteer firefighters looking after the grills with a record number of people that came out! We had over 450 people to enjoy a bite to eat, some music, face painting, balloon twisting, mini horses, lemonade stand and a staffed police table. People came and went for 3 solid hours; some people that I met for the very first time. It was an awesome way to meet people. I believe being out in the public gives my residents a chance to meet other neighbours and myself, and also gives everyone a little time to just sit and have a conversation without feeling rushed or confined to an office. Thank you to all my staff and volunteers that participated or helped out. I couldn’t do this without all the help. We are making plans for the next BBQ in the village of Greely.

Stay tuned to my social media for the date, place and time. Hope to see you out there too!

Last week I mentioned that two of our Ward residents received awards for their artistry. They were Maggie Carter and Valentina Donato, both of Greely. Congratulations ladies and I look forward to next year’s awards again to promote youth in art.

St.Mary’s Catholic School held their family fun day again this year with many family activities including the famous dunk tank. I had the pleasure of helping with this particular event that is always fun to do. There was a silent auction as well with great gift baskets.

This week we had a very busy day in the Ward again meeting with residents for my open doors. This is a very productive way to get small issues brought forward and discussed in person so that we can move on the items. Often we have the City staff right here that can help out too. A surprise visit came from the Mayor of Russell this week! It was great to sit and chat about various issues and also to get a feel for what his job as Mayor is all about. My door is always open to anyone that wants to pop by on Tuesday afternoons, 1-5pm. Keep on dropping in, I really enjoy getting to meet people.

The Ottawa Senators have announced that Daniel Alfredsson has signed a one-year extension with the club, where he will continue in his duties as the team’s senior advisor of hockey operations.

“It is great to have Daniel back as part of the Senators’ hockey department,” said Senators owner and chief executive officer Eugene Melnyk.

“It is wonderful to know that Daniel and his family are returning to Ottawa and will once again make the nation’s capital their home.

I look forward to the contributions Daniel will continue to make with our hockey club and in the community.”

Alfredsson lived in West Carleton when he was a star player for the Senators.

“Daniel offers a fresh perspective and unique insights on what we do in hockey operations,” said Senators general manager Pierre Dorion.

“We feel this year we’ll be able to build on his experiences from last year and he’ll continue to be a valuable asset to our staff.”

Alfredsson, 43, will continue to work in the Senators hockey department, serving as an advisor to the hockey operations department with his duties focused at the National Hockey League level, in a variety of areas.

“When I started this last year, I was not really sure what to expect,” said Alfredsson “This job has turned out to be

exactly what I am looking for – the opportunity to be flexbile and see so many of different requirements of working in an NHL front office.

I’ve been able to do just about everything I could imagine, from being part of scouting meetings to working one-on-one with the players on the ice.

“Coming back to do this just feels right, both personally and professionally and I look forward to helping the front office, coaches and players in any way I can to help us win.”

Alfredsson is the Senators’ alltime leader in goals (426), assists (682), points (1,108), power-play goals (131), shorthanded goals (25), game-winning goals (69), shots (3,320) and hat tricks (eight).

Alfredsson is also the franchise’s leader in playoff games (121), goals (51), assists (49) and points (100).

As the Senators’ team captain for 13 seasons (1999-00 to 2012-13), Alfredsson was the first Senator to capture a major NHL award, winning the Calder Trophy in 1995-96 and later the Mark Messier Leadership Award in 2012-13.

Senators alumni raise $40,000 in Dunrobin tournament Scott Campbell scottcampbell@metroland.com

There are some in the Ottawa Senators alumni that never actually put on a Senators jersey.

That doesn’t stop them from supporting causes dear to the NHL team’s heart.

There were 170 golfers – including more than 40 former players – making up 33 teams for a round of 18 holes at the Eagle Creek Golf Course in Dunrobin on June 10.

It’s been an exciting time for the golf course, which is celebrating its 25th anniversary this year.

A month ago, rising women’s golf star Brook Henderson, who won her first major tournament on the weekend, was on the course leading a session for young golfers.

The Sens Alumni golf tournament wrapped up with a hot stove dinner and a talk by hockey historian, Liam Maguire, who was the event’s emcee.

GROW-THE-GAME

When all was said and done, $40,000 was raised for grow-the-game initiatives and charities in the region, reports Aaron Robinson, the Senators’ director and fan and community development.

The impressive number was raised by “sponsorships, registrations, raffles and prize draws along with a live auction,” explained Robinson.

The event was the 17th edition of the Ottawa Senators alumni golf tournament.

According to the alumni website, those involved are classified as “Senators players, NHLers and professional hockey players from various teams who make their home in hockey country.”

This is the case with Laurie Boschman, who is now the president of the alumni, taking over from Brad Marsh.

Boschman was the first captain of the Senators in the new era of the team and had a career that also included NHL stops in Toronto, Winnipeg and New Jersery.

He joked that he scored his first NHL goal against Ed Staniowski, who never played for the Senators.

The alumni is taking on new members each year.

Daniel Alfredsson, Jesse Winchester and Chris Phillips are a few of the recent additions.

Boschman gave much credit to Robinson and also Laurie Davidson on keeping the alumni running smoothly.

Rowan’s Law comes to life at Queen’s Park, along with Rowan’s Pitch in Nepean Megan DeLaire mdelaire@metroland.com

In Queen’s Park and at home in Barrhaven, June has been a pivotal month for the family and friends of Rowan Stringer.

Three years after her death, her name will now be synonymous with Canada’s first concussion legislation, and a popular rugby pitch in Nepean.

Ontario’s legislature passed Rowan’s Law, an opposition private member’s bill proposed by NepeanCarleton MPP Lisa MacLeod, on June 7 after the bill received unanimous support from all political parties.

The bill was co-sponsorship by NDP MPP Catherine Fife and Liberal MPP John Fraser.

“We’re quite euphoric today, pretty proud of ourselves,” MacLeod said in an interview with Metroland Media.

“We’ve done something substantial, and I think we’re going to see more protection for athletes in amateur sport and minor sport.”

Based on 49 recommendations that came out of a coroner’s inquest into Stringer’s death, Rowan’s Law is intended to provide guidelines and tools for players, parents, teachers and coaches to prevent, diagnose and better respond to concussions.

Stringer, 17, died of complications from multiple concussions she sustained while playing rugby in May 2013.

Her parents, Gordon and Kathleen Stringer, approached MacLeod the month after Rowan’s death seeking help to change concussion laws in order to make playing sports such as rugby safer for young athletes.

As well as receiving support from all provincial parties, Rowan’s Law was publicly endorsed by Rugby Canada, Rugby Ontario, and retired NHL hockey player Eric Lindros, who sustained multiple concussions during his NHL career.

In January, Rugby Canada launched its PlaySmart player welfare system, a program that aims to educate players, parents, coaches, match officials and administrators on player welfare and concussion management.

Despite gaining traction through widespread support, the bill recently appeared to be threatened when it was stalled in committee amid fears that the provincial government would prorogue the legislature for the summer before it could pass Rowan’s Law. “If we did not pass the bill today, it more than likely would have died on the order paper,” MacLeod said on June 7.

After its approval in legislature on June 7, the bill received royal assent from the Lieutenant Governor of Ontario – a formality – on June 9, at which point, MacLeod said, it officially came into effect. The next step, she said, is to form a committee of experts who will have one year to develop a framework for implementing Rowan’s Law in Ontario.

“It will be up to the government, as of (June 9), to develop the public appointment process for the 16 committee members from five ministries,” she said.

MacLeod believes Rowan’s Law could go nationwide, with several federal senators already having expressed interest in introducing federal concussion legislation. Earlier in the spring, she said, the Senate invited Lindros and herself to participate in a forum on the topic.

“And then the minister of culture and tourism and sport has told me that in the next month the provincial and territorial ministers of sport are meeting with the federal minister and the first item on their agenda is concussions and Rowan’s Law,” she said.

Days before Rowan’s Law received the green light

in the legislature, the Barrhaven Scottish Rugby Football Club renamed its rugby pitch at Ken Ross Park Rowan’s Pitch in a June 4 ceremony. That day was the opening day of the club’s spring season.

“Naming the pitch after Rowan is not only our club’s way of remembering and honouring her, but also highlights Rowan’s Law and concussion awareness,” Barrhaven Scottish president Barb Gillie said in a media release. “She was an in-

credible rugby player, a funny and loving person, and one who was always giving of herself.”

Stringer was captain of the rugby team at John McCrae Secondary School and played for the Barrhaven Scottish Rugby Club.

The renaming event drew members of the local rugby community, MacLeod, Stringer’s parents and some former teammates, as well as Barrhaven Coun. Jan

Harder and Innes Coun. Jody Mitic, who both worked to gain approval from the city for the pitch to be renamed.

As part of the celebration, club teams played rugby throughout the day, Ross’ Your Independent Grocer and Bells Corners based Whiprsnapr Brewing Co. provided food and beer, and club sponsor Bin There Dump That collected food donations for the Barrhaven Food Cupboard using one of its construction bins.

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

My wife and I are separating after 7 years of marriage.

Will I have to pay child support for my two step-children?

The simple answer is “possibly”. In determining whether or not a step-parent will be required to pay support, there are several factors that merit consideration.

The courts have determined that the test of whether or not a child is entitled to support from a step-parent is whether or not that person “stands in the place of a parent”, which is a fact-driven analysis.

Some of the factors to be considered in determining whether the relationship meets the test include the opinion of the child, the participation of the child with extended family of the step-parent, About Allan Snelling Allan Snelling LLP is Kanata’s full-service law firm.

His practice has been serving the legal needs of business owners and professionals.

whether the step-parent disciplines the child, and the nature of the relationship between the child and the absent parent.

In considering these factors and others, the courts will look at the overall nature of the relationship and determine if the step-parent “stands in the place of the parent”. It should be noted that a breakdown in the relationship between the step-parent and the child following separation is not a consideration.

Furthermore, receipt of support from a biological parent is not a bar to a finding that a step-parent is required to pay child support.

Harpist a highlight at family retreat, performs again June 19

Kaia Nightingale plays the harp at the family retreat. She’ll be featured at the final Carp Healing Circle this Sunday, June 19.

When feedback forms for the June 4 Family Retreat at Carp Ridge EcoWellness Centre were turned in, the overwhelmingly favourite activity from the day-long event was a performance by gifted Ottawa musician, yoga and meditation teacher Kaia Nightingale.

Guests were invited to relax after lunch to listen to Nightingale sing while playing her harp, guitar or singing bowls with the explanation that downtime and rest is essential for their health.

The example was given of companies in Europe that allow naps as part of the work day - and then are more productive than their North American workaholic counterparts. Nightingale ended the performance with a short exercise in sound healing, which took everyone from sleepy to alert in 10 minutes flat.

Nightingale will be the guest speaker/performer at the final Carp Healing Circle next

44 West Carleton Review - Thursday, June 16, 2016

Sunday, June 19.

Other activities at the retreat included picking wild plants to make sumac lemonade, a first aid comfrey crème, sun tea and salad greens for lunch; a full children’s program; a gentle yoga class; a session on simple healing tools; reflection opportunities; and lots of free time to get to know new people and enjoy snacks and a delicious lunch made from local and mostly organic ingredients.

Everyone seemed relaxed and recharged by the end of the day, with one child exclaiming, “I loved it. I wish it could go on forever!”

This was a free offering to the community by local charity Carp Ridge Learning Centre that was appreciated by all.

Sign up for the regular newsletter through the website at www.ecowellness.com to be informed of events in the future.

Special thanks go to the volunteer cooks: Cindy Fleming for “delicious rhubarb

squares and devilled eggs” and Tanya Spirak and talented daughter Jessica for the “best sandwiches ever.”

Thanks also to volunteer Sarah R. for cheerfully helping with the children’s program directed by Nicole Carr and Monika Miller. And a large amount of gratitude goes to Tash Vanieris and Ellie Hannah for the extra effort to make this retreat happen.

Almonte health food store donated a huge basket of goodies that were raffled off separately so almost everyone received a gift - thank you to the kind people at Dandelion Foods.

To experience Nightingale’s healing music, please join the group on Sunday, June 19, from 2 to 4 p.m. at the Carp Memorial Hall. RSVP to info@ecowellness.com or call Ellie at 613-839-1198.

West Carleton Review - Thursday, June 16, 2016 45

Royal Ottawa offers rapid access to medically supported alcohol withdrawal The Alcohol Medical Intervention Clinic (AMIC) is a new outpatient clinic at the Royal Ottawa Mental Health Centre that provides quick follow-up services for people with significant, potentially lifethreatening alcohol problems.

The clinic, a two-year pilot project that opened May 26, provides fast medically supported withdrawal for people who have been referred by the Ottawa Hospital emergency department.

“People with alcohol ad-

diction tend to be high repeat users of the emergency rooms, either for intoxication, withdrawal, or for injuries that happen as a result of intoxication,” said Dr. Kim Corace, program development director and cocreator.

Dr. Melanie Willows, cocreator and clinical director of the Royal’s Substance Use and Concurrent Disorders program (SUCD), said often people are treated and released but “they tend to not get follow up care to address the addiction,

often times because of the wait involved in accessing care.”

Staffed by two nurses, a social worker and addiction medicine doctors from the Royal’s SUCD program, the clinic will provide same day or nextday access to short-term medical withdrawal management support, while working with clients to find an appropriate community or hospital-based program for longer-term support.

“The goal is to reduce the number of repeat visits to emergency departments and demands on paramedic services, reducing the strain on limited resources and ultimately help people with alcohol addictions,” said the Royal’s president and CEO George Weber.

The project will run until March 2018, and will receive approximately $430,000 each year from the Champlain LHIN. Patients referred from the Ottawa Hospital emergency department will be seen in the clinic at the Royal Ottawa Mental Health Centre, 1145 Car-

ling Ave., Monday to Friday between 8 a.m. and 11a.m.

People are encouraged to go to the clinic as soon as possible after being discharged from the emergency department.

Patients will be assessed for their treatment needs and may receive medication for alcohol withdrawal management and/or anti-craving medication.

Clinic staff will provide management and monitoring of the patient on an outpatient basis.

Assessment for further treatment needs either within the Royal’s Substance Use and Concurrent Disorders program or with a community treatment agency will be provided, including linking patients to these services.

For those with severe alcohol addiction, withdrawal can be potentially life threatening with possible symptoms including seizures, delirium, elevated blood pressure and heart rate. In these types of cases, the withdrawal process can be eased by medication under medical supervision.

FLOOR PLAN JUNE 2016 It’s likely the most important investment you’ll ever make. So now that the me has come to purchase your new home, you want to make sure you get it right. With so many choices on the market today, though, it’s difficult to know how to get started on turning your dream into a reality.

There are so many components in your plan to consider: would you like to live in the city, the suburbs or maybe the country? Of course there are the financial considera ons, how much are you willing and able to spend? What type of home are you looking for, a large single family dwelling with plenty of greenspace or a townhome that might require a li le less maintenance? Or perhaps a condominium is more to your liking?

Here in O awa, the possibili es are extensive. So many of Canada’s top home builders operate in the na onal capital region, offering a wide array of housing styles designed to meet the needs of today’s busy families.

And Metroland Media is pleased to bring you closer to these awardwinning builders through our monthly supplement, Floor Plan 2016.

In this fourth edi on, appearing in your weekly community newspaper, read about some of the exci ng new home designs that are available to you, the services being offered as well as more informa on on the latest innova ons.

A glance at HOME PRICES ACROSS CANADA (NC) With much a en on to home prices these days, property owners are increasingly curious about the value of their homes.

According to the Royal LePage House Price Survey, Canada’s residen al real estate market showed strong year-over-year price increases in the first quarter of 2016. The Greater Vancouver and Greater Toronto Area (GTA) real estate markets con nue to lead the country in home price apprecia on while Quebec shows promising signs of renewal, par cularly in the Greater Montreal Area.

The median price of a home in Canada increased 7.9 per cent year-over-year to $512,621 in the first quarter of 2016. The price of a two-storey home rose 9.2 per cent year-over-year to $629,177, and the price of a bungalow increased 6.8 per cent to $426,216. During the same period, the price of a condominium increased 4.0 per cent to $344,491.

“A glance at our na onal House Price Composite points to a very strong Canadian real estate market, yet the findings contain extreme regional dispari es of the kind we haven’t seen in over a decade,” said Phil Soper, president and CEO, Royal LePage. “Like an economic triumvirate, the impact of rock-bo om interest rates, the low Canadian dollar and a rapidly

expanding U.S. workforce are s mula ng economic growth and housing demand in our largest metropolitan areas. Conversely in ci es like Calgary, the ongoing

drags in depressed energy prices and worrisome employment trends have taken a material bite out of sales volumes.”

Helpful tips for NEW HOME OWNERS

Ryland Coyne Editor-in-Chief Metroland Media East

(NC) It may have seemed like it took forever for your new home to be complete, but moving day has arrived at last. Even so, there are countless things to do before you get settled so here are some tips to make the process a smooth one:

Read up on the warranty Almost every new home built in Ontario comes with warranty coverage that is provided by the builder and backed by Tarion. In addition to deposit coverage and delayed closing compensation, there are also three separate warranties on new homes. Together, they last up to seven years and include defects in workmanship, violations to the Ontario Building Code, defects in electrical, plumbing and heating systems, and coverage for major structural defects. Your builder should be providing you with a Homeowner Information Package before you take possession with detailed information about the warranty. It is also available at tarion.com.

Inspect your new home carefully Before you move in, your builder is required to take you through a Pre-Delivery Inspection, also known as a PDI. Look for any items that are incomplete, damaged, missing, or not operating properly and make sure your builder notes them on the PDI form. Take pictures of any damaged or incomplete items. If necessary, those photos can be submitted to Tarion – the administrator of Ontario’s new home warranty program – at a later date.

Sign Up for MyHome

ottawa COMMUNITY

news .COM

The easiest way to stay on top of your warranty coverage is to register for the web-based service, MyHome, on the Tarion website. By registering online, many of the tasks of managing your warranty, such as remembering deadlines and keeping track of the correspondence, are done for you automatically.

2 Floor Plan West Edition - Thursday, June 16, 2016

Maintain your new home In order to keep your home in good shape for the long run and to maintain your warranty rights, be sure to perform the needed maintenance year-round. There is a comprehensive checklist of seasonal home maintenance tasks on the Tarion site, and remember: ongoing maintenance helps to ensure that your statutory warranty is protected.

Wait to make renovations and repairs Since your new home is under warranty, it’s your builder’s responsibility to take care of any defects that you identify – and in fact, renovating a new home can actually jeopardize your warranty rights.

Take a panoramic view WHEN BUYING A NEW HOME (NC) As you choose your next place to live it’s important to see what is going on around you. You may be concentrating on selecting the perfect floor plan, the right finishes and whether or not to purchase upgrades, but today, new neighbourhoods offer so much more than just a house or condominium to go home to.

Many communities are built with a very specific buyer in mind and can come with special conveniences or facilities.

For example, a development catering to young families might have a brand new school, parks, or even a new community centre with a swimming pool. It may appear that these extras are the choice of the developer, but in fact, the municipality usually makes them a condition of approval.

So the perfect neighbourhood for you and your family may be breaking ground right now. Some of the important questions to get answered beyond floor plans, like how long you may have to wait to enjoy it all, include:

What isn’t part of the picture?

One thing not normally included in a builder’s model of a new community is the parking bylaws. The local municipality office will have information about this for your street and the streets around you. This is important if the availability of street parking is important to you.

Your local and provincial levels of government will also have more information on what will be built around you.

The municipality signs off on any future development plans for the community so you will be able to see if there is intensification planning in anticipation of population growth.

This could mean the green spaces around you now may be developed into more houses or condominiums, schools, or commercial buildings.

How long do I have to wait?

For condominium living, new construction projects may be

sold with plans for indoor or outdoor pools, a lounge, and perhaps a putting green or tennis court.

However, you may have to wait some time before everything is completed. In fact, you may be living in a construction zone when you first move in. Under Ontario’s new home warranty program, there is compensation for delays when it comes to your unit, but there is no warranty protection for delays in the completion of the common elements. So although your condominium unit may be ready, the common elements such as the lobby, hallways and any other amenities like a gym or pool room may still be under construction for a period of time after you take possession of your unit.

Another important part of the new home buying process is the warranty protection that is provided by your builder and backed by Tarion. If you’re in the market for a brand new home read up on the warranty protection at Tarion.com. newscanada.com

“Jolt Pink” bearded carna on

Latin name: Dianthus barbatus “Jolt Pink”

Family: Caryophyllaceae

Possible colours: Pink

Height: 40 to 50 cm

Spread: 30-35 cm

Exposure: Sun

Planting: Rich, cool, well-drained soil Submi ed Flowering: The “Jolt Pink” bearded carnation impresses with its big pink flowers throughout the summer.

From June to September 4 Floor Plan West Edition - Thursday, June 16, 2016

Specific maintenance and care

Producers have already won several awards for this variety because it is the most drought-tolerant cul var currently available on the market. To prolong flowering, which is con nuous throughout the summer, remove dead flowers; the results will surprise you.

Ideally, this carna on should be grown in cool, welldrained soil, but it can tolerate many soil types, from clayey to sandy. Various tests have also found that this flower con nues to bloom well even when the weather turns cool in early fall.

Interesting fact

This compact, durable carna on with a contemporary look has many advantages: it a racts pollinators, especially bu erflies; its flowers are edible and their pink colour adds a beau ful, decora ve touch to your dishes; it looks great in container arrangements as well as flower beds; and it produces big pink flowers on strong stems.

A GARDENING GUIDE for beginners (NC) Have you ever wanted to make a salad from vegetables you grew yourself? Or give a bouquet to your loved one made of fresh flowers picked from your own garden?

Or maybe you have just bought a new home and your yard is a blank canvas? Now is your time to shine and grow like a pro with a few tips to get you started: While your first attempt may not be as beautiful as Butchart Gardens in British Columbia, it can certainly serve as inspiration as you begin to visualize how you would like your garden to look. Hop on the web, take a stroll through your neighbourhood or head to your local garden store for some creative inspiration.

Tools

THE SOONER YOU ACT THE SOONER YOU COULD BE RELAXING HERE…

You’ll need to acquire a few essential tools for preparing the soil/space, for planting your seeds and for garden maintenance: • Gloves - To protect your hands from prickles, thorns and dirt, make sure to have some sturdy gardening gloves on hand.

• Hand Trowel – This will act as your best friend when it comes time to plant your

seeds, excavate weeds and transport items from pots to your garden.

• Wheelbarrow - Investing in a wheelbarrow is a must for gardeners. You’ll likely need to purchase some gardening soil to mix in with your ground soil. Having a wheelbarrow on hand to help you transport the soil from your vehicle to your garden is gold.

Gardening gear

To be a true gardener, you’ll need a few key items in your wardrobe: • Overalls – There’s a reason traditional Carhartt overalls have stayed in style for so long. With room for knee pads for extra cushioning and multiple utility pockets, overalls are essential.

• Footwear – You’ll want to wear shoes that are comfortable and functional. Rain boots are are a great option as they are easy to hose off after a day in the dirt.

• Sun hat – You’ll likely be spending quite a bit of time outside so it’s best to protect yourself with a wide brimmed hat in addition to wearing sunscreen. newscanada.com

• When you’re done cooking, turn the heat all the way up for a few minutes to burn off any extra food.

• Once cooled, put a protective cover on the grill.

Every month:

• Remove the grates and clean them.

6 Floor Plan West Edition- Thursday, June 16, 2016

• Replace or clean the grease drip tray while the grates are drying.

Annually:

• Replace hoses that are cracked or damaged.

• If you don’t have spider guards (small screens that discourage bugs), clean the metal tube under each burner with a small flexible brush and look for insects that may have crawled into these tubes and blocked the gas flow over the winter.

• Use a pipe cleaner or wire to ensure burner ports are free of rust, dirt, spider webs or other debris.

• Make sure your quick-disconnect valve is securely connected.

Remember to never use your barbecue indoors. Always consult your owner’s manual for specific instructions and schedules for cleaning and maintenance. If you think your natural gas barbecue is leaking, call your local gas utility.

Try no-cost and Keep your low-cost cooling HOME SAFE tips in your home (NC) Your bags are packed, the car is loaded and your tickets are in hand. You’re finally ready for that relaxing summer getaway you’ve been anticipating all year – or so you think.

(NC) A lot of money is spent on the energy needs of our lifestyles, but did you know that Ontarians spend the majority of their energy dollars controlling the temperature of their home?

In the summer, this means keeping it cool, so before cranking up the air conditioning, try a few alternatives first. Even if you’re using air conditioning, you’ll use less and that will lower your electricity use. Here are some helpful guidelines from Hydro One:

Draw the curtains on heat - In the morning, open

windows to let cool air in. Then close them, and draw your blinds or drapes during the day. Your home will retain much of the cool morning air.

Let fans move the air - Ceiling fans help cool down your

home. They don’t use much electricity and can help reduce the need for air conditioning. Make sure ceiling fans blow air downwards in summer.

Cool down your menus too - One of the easiest things

you can do to conserve energy and keep your house cool is to avoid using appliances that heat up the home. In the summer, use the barbecue and include more cold foods and salads in your menu. Try not to use major appliances in the middle of the day.

The real problem may be humidity - Humid homes

feel hotter. Use exhaust fans in kitchens, bathrooms and laundry areas to expel the air directly outside (not into walls or attics). Avoid air-drying clothes in the home and don’t store firewood inside.

Check around the house - Examine the caulking and weather stripping around your windows and doors. People tend to think this is a winter preparation, but it is just as useful in the summer to ensure that you keep the cool air in. If you have a window air conditioning unit, clean or replace the filter monthly. Dirty filters may restrict air flow and reduce efficiency.

Turn it off - Lights, appliances and home electronics use a lot of power and give off heat. During the summer, it’s more important than ever to turn them off when you aren’t using them. You’ll save energy twice.

In the last minute hustle and bustle of planning for vacation, many Canadians leave their homes without planning for their proper protection. Empty houses are attractive targets for breakins, which is a real threat for homeowners.

“Planning ahead is essential to ensure that you don’t return home to unfortunate surprises,” says Glenn Cooper from Aviva Canada. “The key is to take a few simple steps to make it look like you haven’t left at all.”

Cooper suggests these five tips the next time you travel:

1. Keep it to yourself: Posting holiday

plans and live updates on social networks such as Facebook, Twitter or Instagram could alert potential thieves of your empty house. Keep the details of your vacation plans off social media and save the sharing for when you return home.

2. Get a house-sitter: Arrange

for a house-sitter while you are gone, or ask a neighbour that you trust to check-in daily. Give this person the key to your house, but don’t hide it around your home where it could be found by a potential burglar, especially not under the flower pot or door mat!

“Planning ahead is essential to ensure that you don’t return home to unfortunate surprises,” says Glenn Cooper from Aviva Canada. “The key is to take a few simple steps to make it look like you haven’t left at all.”

3. Set timers: Program the lights in different rooms of your home to switch on intermittently.

4. Make arrangements for newspaper and mail: Piled up mail or newspapers on your doorstep are an obvious sign that you are out of town. You can cancel, temporarily divert deliveries, or ask your neighbours to pick them up for you.

5. Maintain your yard: An overgrown yard

Use the RIGHT PAINTBRUSH for the job Lifestyle - Is it for edges or large areas? Do you need natural bristles or synthetic? Big or small? When it comes to paintbrushes, there is certainly no lack of choice. The following is a short guide to help you choose the model that suits your needs, so that you don’t paint yourself into a corner.

First of all, invest in good quality brushes; they will last a long time if you follow the manufacturer’s care recommendations.

Be sure to choose a brush with the appropriate bristles for the type of product to be used.

• For water-based paints (latex, acrylic), use polyester or nylon/polyester bristles • For oil-based products (alkyds), use natural bristles (often boar bristles) or nylon/polyester bristles

The shape of the brush also has to be specific to the job.

Rounded brushes are ideal for three-dimensional surfaces (such as mouldings) and edges. Flat brushes are perfect for work that doesn’t require precision. Angular brushes are great for edges and drawing a narrow line. Flat, wide brushes should be used for applying varnish, while very wide models are useful for covering big surfaces, such as a patio.

Tricks of the trade Before painting, rub your brushes on a rough surface in order to get rid of any loose bristles. Once the job is finished, clean them in the recommended manner and leave them to dry upside down by hanging them on a piece of string (if there isn’t already a hole in the handle, one can easily be drilled).

When dry, always store your brushes with the bristles pointing up so that they keep their shape.

WALLPAPER here, there, and everywhere Lifestyle - If you’re one of those people who thinks that wallpaper is a thing of the past, maybe you should think again. With a bit of imagina on and good taste, it can confer a surprisingly whimsical touch to your home. Whether it’s to revamp an old piece of furniture, dress up a folding privacy screen, or enhance a decora ve object, wallpaper can be used in a number of unexpected ways.

Use wallpaper to: • create a trompe-l’oeil headboard for a bed • dress up an old sideboard • decorate the mantelpiece • personalize a lampshade • brighten up stair risers • cover a chest of drawers, side table, or bookshelves • enhance a bathroom cupboard • embellish the inside of wardrobes or drawers • decorate a doll house • give a touch of glamour to document storage containers • create a decora ve wallpaper border or a sliding panel effect Of course, you could also use wallpaper for its original purpose, which is to add colour and visual interest to the walls of a room. You can paper an en re room, one wall, or even a ceiling that you’d like to accentuate.

Submi ed For your decora on project Use your creativity to turn wallpaper into your favourite to be a success, be sure to decorating material. choose good quality wallpaper.

These days it is available in an impressive range of pa erns, colours, and textures and is easy to use as well. Now all you have to do is sit back and enjoy your works of art.

Create a safe haven with a fence Whether it’s for safety, privacy or simply for the look, fencing your yard can add instant curb appeal to your home. A fence keeps children and pets inside the enclosure while safeguarding the house and yard. It also adds an interesting visual element to your property.

Before building Do plenty of research. Contact local authorities to find out about current regulations and to ensure that there are no telephone cables or gas lines where you want to dig. You should also check your certificate of location to be absolutely sure of where your property boundary is located.

Choose the material If your fence is meant to be functional and the look doesn’t really matter to you, a chain-link fence remains the cheapest

option on the market. Aluminum and ornamental iron fences won’t rust, are virtually maintenance free and come in a wide variety of styles. PVC fences are very popular and give plenty of low-cost privacy, but their plastic look could put off those more concerned with esthetics.

While any of the above options are viable choices, wood still remains the best fencing material. It requires regular maintenance, but the effort is well worthwhile. Its timeless appearance and the endless ways it can be customized appeal to just about everyone.

Once you’ve decided which sort of fence you want, you can either build it yourself or entrust the job to a professional fence installer. Afterwards, why not embellish your new fence with greenery or some flowers? Let your imagination run wild, as well as your green thumb!

How to get a DESIGNER INSPIRED HOME without the designer cost (NC) When you walk through a professionally decorated home there is a certain

sense of harmony that flows throughout the space. This is because designers consider

each room in terms of its relation to another and choose colours, furniture and acces-

sories that feel cohesive. This is especially important given the popularity of open concept homes. Now, not everyone hires a decorator or has a knack for design which makes choosing complementary paint colours tricky, so most homeowners end up picking one colour for the entire home.

Want to bring your space to life with colour?

Try the following steps:

Determine what your style is What is your inspiration? Do you tend towards clean lines with a mix of retro or vintage treasures? Do you favour a traditional feel over a modern look? Do you envision coming home to a luxurious cozy space or clean minimalist setting? These factors will influence which palette you choose. Finding visual representation of what speaks to you is the best place to start narrowing in on your style.

Decide on the theme Depending on whether you choose warm, neutral or cool colours, you can create a space that helps to set a particular mood.

Warm tones create a space that is inviting and gives off a positive energy. Neutrals create a space that is cozy yet balanced as they complement various looks and stay relevant over time. Cool colours create a space that is relaxing and provide styling options for either an urban or coastal feel.

Great design should reflect the homeownerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s personality and should be more fun than difficult. newscanada.com

SENIORS

Connected to your community

Fighting was a bit of a sport for the boys of the family “I’m not interested!” Mother almost yelled in Earl’s direction, as he framed the kitchen door crying his eyes out.

His nose was spouting blood like a fountain, and covered his shirt, and I could see he had also scraped his knees.

He yelled louder, this time adding that Emerson had almost killed him. Again, Mother said, “I’m not interested. And go out and sit on the back stoop. You’re getting blood all over the floor that Audrey just scrubbed.”

That’s how Mother dealt with fighting among the boys. Come to her for sympathy or to have her intervene, and they were sent packing.

I was more interested in the fights than was Mother. The three brothers were all different sizes, and it had nothing to do with their ages.

Emerson, the middle brother, was a whopper. At 12 years of age, stood just under 6-feet tall. Everett was somewhere in the middle, even though he was the oldest of the three. Earl was the youngest, but growing fast, and it looked like he would soon be taller than Everett.

So they were a mixed lot.

But when it came to fighting,

Mary Cook’s Memories MARY COOK

Emerson usually came out on top.

I found out that a fight could start over the simplest disagreement. It often had to do with barn chores. Whose turn it was to milk Ethel, the cow who wouldn’t stand still, and who you could count on kicking over the milk pail at least once every milking. Or whose turn it was to shovel the manure out the back door of the barn.

A simple argument would spill over into a dragged out fight at the drop of a hat.

The boys also fought over slingshots. Slingshots were everywhere.

They sat on the rail at the back door, and hung from the post at the gate. Always at the ready. There was always a squirrel or mouse to get rid of, or empty tin cans to knock off the back fence. Who owned what sling shot was the cause of many a scrap. Finally, Everett started scratching his initials on the ones

he had made. But that didn’t work, because the three brothers had the same initials … and so the fight was on when it came to ownership.

The boys never went to Father to settle a fight. His response was completely different from Mother’s.

While Mother sent the injured packing, Father would simply find jobs for the three boys to do, and they were never jobs they particularly enjoyed. Raking up the smoke house ashes was a hateful job, and the three brothers knew perfectly well if Father was asked to settle a fight, he almost always sent the complainer to the smoke house.

It would take days to get the smell of smoldering hickory off the offender’s body. Even several dips in the Bonnechere failed to do the job. So going to Father to settle a fight was a last resort.

Although I often argued with Emerson, he knew better than to make body contact. Back then boys simply did not hit girls.

My sister Audrey and I never fought. I was too in awe of my much older sister, who I thought was just about the smartest girl in all of Renfrew County. But I was always amazed at Mother, who could be most sympathetic to our

woes and concerns, but could simply turn her back on my brothers fighting. Audrey said it was because she never liked to take sides.

Audrey said she could be defending the very person who started the fight in the first place. And Audrey said, that in itself, could start an-

other donny-brook.

The Fish and Game Club will have their various events advertised as they come up starting with the annual seniors River Cruise in July. Watch for reminders of all these events on posters and in ‘What’s Happening’.
