Barking dog saves Constance Bay family from house fire Derek Dunn

derek.dunn@metroland.com

A dog in Constance Bay will get a nice dinner the day after her family’s house burned to the ground.

Kayla, a shepherd-collie mix, began barking uncharacteristically at about 2:30 a.m. on Friday, June 24. Andrew and Tammie Walker awoke to investigate. Fire was raging at the front door of their Constance Bay home.

The couple quickly aroused their 14-yearold daughter and, with their two dogs, scrambled to evacuate their home at 1263

Bayview Dr. for the last time. They lived in that spot, overlooking the bay side, for 13 years.

“Everyone got out safely, that’s what matters,” Tammie said. “That dog’s getting steak tonight. There’s a very good chance that she saved our lives last night.”

She and Andrew were on the front step of their next door neighbour’s house at mid-morning, having not slept since the fire started. Exhausted, still in some disbelief, the scale of the loss was beginning to dawn on them. But the couple couldn’t say enough about volunteer firefighters and their leader.

Front porch cigarette is cause of $450K in damages Continued from front

“The fire department was here quickly and put the fire out fast,” Andrew said. “The chief was great at giving us updates.

“It’s terrible.”

The brick facade remained on the two-car garage home, but it was possible to see from front to back, and the siding and many contents lay gutted on the yard. The smell of smoke still clung to the air.

The Walkers are very appreciative of the support neighbours and friends have offered. Everything from blankets to a Facebook page entry under ‘Constance Bay/ Buckhams Bay Families’. Donations and items are being offered.

“People are really amazing,” said Tammie, who will stay with family in Ottawa.

They did not have insurance.

Andrew said it expired a few years back and he simply never got around to renewing it.

“Honestly, I just forgot about it,” he said. “It’s one of those things you don’t think about until your house is on fire.” It was four days before their daughter’s graduation from Stonecrest Elementary.

Her prom dress was lost to fire. Her birthday will be two days after that.

The family would like to remain in the area.“We love it out here,” Tammie said. “And it is the best thing we can do for her, to be near her friends.”

By early afternoon, Ottawa Fire Services publicized the following news release.

“Ottawa Fire Services received a 911 call at 2:44 a.m. reporting a roof on fire at 1263 Bayview Rd .in the area of Bishop Davis Drive in Constance Bay. “The house

was fully involved in flames and the roof collapsed which prompted a defensive attack from Ottawa Fire Services crews on scene.

“Neighbouring home owners were concerned for their own properties because of the intensity of the fire and firefighters addressed those concerns in their fire operations.

“Ottawa Fire Services’ primary tactics and strategies include protecting other structures that may be exposed during a fire event. The radiant heat created by a fire can quickly ignite neighbouring structures.

“Firefighters quickly use their equipment to wet those vulnerable items and reduce their temperature.

“This in turn lessens the chance of the fire spreading to another unit or structure.

“We can confirm that no other homes in the area of Bayview Road were impacted by fire.

Ottawa Fire Services Investigation staff has concluded their inquiry and have deemed the cause of the fire as accidental.

“Poorly discarded smoking material appears to have ignited the front landing which quickly spread to the remainder of the home.

“It was Kayla, the family dog that alerted the homeowners of the emergency.

“The Shepherd Collie mix made excessive noise that pulled the occupants from their deep sleep and made them aware of the fire outside. The family of three safely evacuated. There are no reported injuries.

“Damage estimates for the home and its contents stands at $450,000. Two adults and a

Fire consumed a house at 1263 Bayview Dr. in Constance Bay during the early morning hours of June 24. All occupants made it out safely thanks to a family pet.

13-year-old were displaced as a result of the blaze.

“We want to thank our partners at the Salvation Army and Red Cross for helping this family with some of their immediate needs.

“We would also like to take this opportunity to remind Ottawa residents of the high risk of fire spread due to poorly discarded smoking material.

“The cooperation of residents is essential to ensure that homes, buildings and lives are not impacted by fire.

The dangers are real and we want to prevent losses and/or deaths.

“We would like to remind residents to be extremely cautious when disposing of smoking materials. If you or a family member smokes please

Harbour Days celebrations extended to fourth day

Councillor Eli El-Chantiry

Bert Reitsma’s memory to be honoured in presentation to his family Scott Campbell scottcampbell@metroland.com

One of West Carleton’s biggest summer events, Harbour Days, has now added a fourth day. The festival runs from July 7 to 11, with most activities at the Fitzroy Harbour Community Centre.

New to schedule this year will be a special presentation to Bert Reitsma’s family, The Amazing Race Saturday and a Mom and Me event on Sunday.

The presentation to honour Reitsma, a strong community supporter who died in February, will be held at 9 a.m. Saturday.

Reitsma served as Councillor for Ward 2, Fitzroy, in the former Township of West Carleton from 1974-1982 and 19882000. He volunteer in many different community organizations and initiatives.

Reitsma lived in Fitzroy Harbour with his wife, Patricia, where they raised their children, Tricia and Greg. They also have seven grandchildren.

Reitsma’s family immigrated to Canada from Holland in 1950. Patricia was known to say that Bert believed that he had an obligation to give back to his country because Canada had given his family the opportunity to flourish.

Harbour Days starts with a family out-

door bingo at 7 p.m. on Thursday, July 7. Games are affordable to play at just $1 each.

Ladies softball league players are on the field showing off their skills at the same time, while the Greater Ottawa Fastball League teams, West Carleton Electric and Ottawa Valley A’s, take over at 8:30 p.m.

The action on Friday has the ball field hosting a three-pitch tournament starting at 6 p.m.

The kids are invited to enter a bike parade at 7 p.m. The only requirement to be in the parade is to make sure to decorate their bicycle.

There will also be live music by Wilson & Delcourt, with thew tunes beginning at 8:30 p.m.

The big day of the festival is expected to be a “sizzling Saturday,” say organizers, the Fitzroy Harbour Community Association. The day’s activities run all day and won’t wrap until 11 p.m.

Firefighters will be cooking the traditional firemen’s breakfast with bacon, sausage, eggs and all the fixings, bright and early at 8 a.m. The 3-pitch tournament starts up again at 8:30 a.m. and is slated to run straight into the evening.

Runners need to be at the starting line

at 8:30 a.m. for the fourth annual ‘Choose 2 Live’ Lisa’s Run in memory of Lisa Roesler.

The presentation to Bert Reitsma’s family is set for 9 a.m.

There may be no ice, but youngsters can still play ball hockey outside starting at 10 a.m.

The Fitzroy Women’s ball league will be putting on the barbecue and those Amazing Race participants are taking off from the starting line at 11 a.m. Some fans of the television show may be disappointed, as the race is only open to those from 10 to 15 years old.

Teen volleyball tournament teams of four to six can register onsite for a 1 p.m. time slot. A horseshoe tournament is planned for an hour later.

People are welcome to play on the tennis court and those looking for a cool drink can check out the beer gardens.

Sunday is meant as a Cork N’Brush day. The plan for the ‘Mom and Me’ event is to create a sunny fun canvas. Registration in advance is expected, as space will fill up fast.

For more on the day, send inquiries to corkandbrush@gmail.com and for more information on Harbour Days, visit www. fitzroyharbour.com.

OPINION

Connected to your community

Be the bigger nation with many friends

W

ith Canada Day here, it’s worth reviewing all the reasons why we should be thankful.

We’re at peace. We have order.

And most Canadians – based on recent elections – would agree we have good government.

We have been battered a bit by a drop in oil revenue, but Canada appears very capable of moving forward.

We have a federal government that is making a growing middle class a priority.

We have federal unity.

The system works well. When one part of Canada sees good times, it shares the wealth with others. When one province is hurting, the others are there to help.

In good times or in bad, it’s best to have many friends.

Being part of something big helps smooth out the ups and down of an economy.

Clearly we are better when we are part of something larger.

Our forbearers figured that out in 1867. We’ve only added provinces since then; never subtracted.

We can today look across the Atlantic to see a United Kingdom that has voted to leave the European Union.

That was a vote from the heart, not the brain.

As a smaller economic block, the U.K. will enjoy good times and bad times, but the extremes will no longer be so smooth.

There is already talk of further splintering; a possible referendum in Scotland, and a united Ireland – with Northern Ireland joining the Republic of Ireland – could mean the U.K. is just England and Wales.

How long then until Wales wants to go it alone?

From this side of the Atlantic, the division of Europe could spur some in Canada to think with their hearts too.

But now is the time to sit back and watch what all this division will mean for newly created smaller economies that begin operating independently.

We have been delivered an opportunity to watch the results of the experiment.

We wish the U.K. the best of luck, but we remain here the bigger nation.

Enjoying the game without a soundtrack CHARLES GORDON

T

here are signs that big-time baseball could happen again in Ottawa.

And there are also signs that Ottawa is not quite ready for it.

The turnout for the Father’s Day weekend games between the Ottawa Champions and the Cuban National Team was outstanding — more than 5,000 per game — bringing to mind the mid ’90s, when the Ottawa Lynx made the stadium on Coventry Road the place to be. The attendance even exceeded the last year’s big weekend when the Winnipeg Goldeyes were in town.

The stadium was up to the challenge. Food lines were not too long, staff were friendly and helpful, alternative parking across the street helped ease the strain on RCGT Stadium’s shrunken lot.

tant in this town. The fans could choose between sun and shade.

They liked the between-innings stunts. The scoreboard works.

The announcing is bilingual. The umpiring was fine.

After the Sunday game, kids were allowed to run the bases and fathers were allowed out on the field to play catch with their sons, daughters and grandchildren, a nice touch. And the quality of baseball continues to be excellent. Inning after inning, plays of major-league calibre were made and the fans appreciated it.

Adding to the flavour of the game was a section along the right-field line full of Cuban fans with drums of all sorts and a solitary but spirited trombone. They brought a cheerful and rhythmic intensity to the proceedings.

drowned out by loud outbursts, musical and otherwise, from the stadium sound system.

Which brings up a suggestion, one I’m sure I’m not the only one to make. How about a game with no artificial noise, no recorded music, no electronic prompts to fans to MAKE SOME NOISE. Then we could hear the game, listen to the players’ chatter, maybe even converse with our neighbours. Just try it once, see if people like it.

Last summer, I had a chance to talk with the stadium organist at Fenway Park in Boston.

I had noticed that the fans were never ordered to make noise and I asked about that. I was told it was a deliberate decision, when Fenway’s new scoreboard was installed, to avoid that sort of thing. Boston fans, the thinking went, were knowledgeable enough to know when to cheer.

I would hope we are too, not just in baseball but in all sports.

THE DEADLINE FOR LETTERS TO THE EDITOR IS MONDAY AT 9:30AM

Many fans at Ottawa Senators games find the noise level annoying, not to mention difficult for small children. And they wonder why there is a need to pump artificial excitement into an already exciting event. Baseball, a reflective game with a lower adrenaline level than hockey, actually benefits from a sense of calm.

How about it?

OPINION

Connected to your community

For the love of farming It was 32 degrees today. The Farmer went out “at the crack of sparrow fart” as my dear father used to say, before it got too hot, to sow a field.

I kept thinking it was a bit warm to be expecting seed to grow. And a bit dry.

We have been in a semi-drought condition all spring. But what do I know?

Do not question the Farmer. I have learned, even if you do point out the obvious, he needs to decide for himself. He smiled, gave me a kiss on the cheek and headed out into the dusty back forty.

A few hours later he was back to fill up his coffee. The man doesn’t eat before noon but at least he hydrates. He also took a jug of lemonade and a bottle of water. Back out into the heat.

What was I doing while he was toiling in the summer sun? I ven-

DIANA FISHER Accidental Farmwife tured out to refill the dog’s water.

I checked on my turkeys. I pulled a few weeds in the vegetable garden, took note of the plants that will need to be replaced due to the drought, and then I decided it was much more comfortable in the farmhouse.

I spent the morning cleaning floors and doing laundry. The first muggy heat of the day took over the sunny side of the house and tried to push its way inside. I pulled the blinds and closed the windows on the east side.

The smell of bacon filled the

kitchen, for I planned to tempt the Farmer with a BLT at lunch. I heard the ATV pull up at the gate, then the heavy footfall up the steps to the back deck.

The patio door slid open and I saw a dirty arm reach in to grab a towel off the hook. Next I heard a splash, and a yelp. Seventy-six degree water is a bit of a shock when your skin is scorched. Good thing he has a strong heart.

And good thing no one can see into our backyard. Farmers rarely take the time to don a swimsuit.

I carried a pitcher of Arnold Palmer (iced tea and lemonade) to the pool, handed it to him and watched as he drank the whole thing.

“Are you hungry?” “Yep.” He’s a man of few words when he’s been using every ounce of energy to get a job done in extreme temperatures. I pointed out that he had a completely black face except for the eyes, and he dunked his head and gave it a scrub a few times.

Probably at least once a season I find myself wondering whatever would possess someone to do that?

Working a field in the sweltering, blistering heat of summer. Plowing a path to the barn in the life-sucking, aching cold wind of a winter blizzard.

Well, at this point, he’s committed. He has lives depending on him gaining access to the barn no matter how much snow has fallen.

And this season, we have realized our cattle herd is outgrowing the pastures. We needed to turn and re-plant a couple fields so they would be happy with their hay again come winter. That will help them make good milk and grow healthy babies in the spring.

But what possesses a city boy to get himself into this position where animal lives depend on him and he will be forced to get off the cozy couch by the fire or out of the cool shade poolside to go and do some muscle-ripping, sweaty farm work?

For my husband, it was a sum-

mer spent on his uncle’s farm near Winchester. I believe it was a dairy farm.

He got bitten by that bug that makes you see the weather, the seasons, and life a different way. The farming bug.

Some people are born into the farming life; others come across it by accident. We need more of the latter because we are swiftly running out of the former. Farm families, like all families, just aren’t having as many kids as they used to.

Not every kid raised on a farm wants to farm. So this lessens the chances of the family farm tradition continuing to the next generation.

As I set up my stall at the Kemptville Farmers’ Market, it’s awfully nice to see so many first-generation farmers embracing the lifestyle, accepting the hard work and hardship, and sowing the seed. www.theaccidentalfarmwife. blogspot.com email: dianafisher1@gmail.com

There is plenty to be proud of as you celebrate Canada Day To the Editor: Happy Canada Day! As we gather with family and friends in our communities to celebrate, let us also reflect on our good fortune as Canadians.

It is often said that our country embodies the principles of “peace, order, and good government.” We achieve this every day by engaging in our institutions and with each other in a respectful and courteous manner.

Through these actions, we aim

Arnprior manufacturer to double in size, hire 50 more workers Derek Dunn

derek.dunn@metroland.com

An Arnprior company will expand and increase its workforce over the coming months, and forecasts a 100 per cent growth in sales over five years.

Pillar5 Pharma is embarking on a $4 million project that promises new equipment and jobs by January. A manufacturer of over-the-counter eye and ear products, the company awaits the arrival of a multi-mil-

lion piece of equipment that will ramp up production for years to come.

That means increasing the 100-member workforce to 150 over two years. The jobs will be both full and part time, permanent, and range in prerequisites from highly-educated, science-focused to blue collar. Some will be hired this year; training is expected to be time consuming. Others will be brought on board as production warrants.

The project also means a jump in sales from $20 million to possibly $35 million.

“It’s a pretty big deal for us. We are a small company in a big industry,” said Kevin Rampton, CFO and vice-president of business development. “This contract really secures our future and points us in a direction we need to go.”

A large contract signed in midJune with a leading U.S.-based pharmaceutical company will see Pillar5 go from producing three different products to nine (including six new formulas). About 8 million bottles per year are produced; 24 million is the goal in three years’ time.

Many in Arnprior consider the company a success by virtue of not having folded. A proud piece of local lore had Mayor Tommy Sullivan and a group in the 1950s head down to New York City to woo

A Pillar5 worker oversees the production line at the pharmaceutical manufacturer’s plant. The company expects 100 per cent growth in sales over the medium term. manufacturers. It worked. Among the companies impressed by the town that punched above its weight was Pfizer, made famous for producing the drug Viagra.

The plant proved the first of its kind in Canada.

But when it shut down and took the little blue pills with it, few held hope for the local building and the jobs it housed. That’s when Rampton assembled a group of smart investors and experienced executives to purchase the facility, some six years ago.

Their focus was to rapidly turn the facility into a competitive independent contractor.

They managed to sign up existing customers, then secure a niche in “sterile ophthalmic” or safe eye washes.

“So we basically saved the plant, really,” recalled Rampton, who grew up in nearby West Carleton. “It was supposed to be gone.”

Strategic investments by federal and provincial governments, plus partnerships with Canadian research-and-development and virtual companies, kept Pillar5 afloat during turbulent times.

Community leaders are also feeling buoyed by the news, too.

“On behalf of council and Arnprior residents, I would like to congratulate Pillar5

Pharma on the recent news of their expansion,” Mayor David Reid said. “Pillar5 Pharma, previously Pfizer, has been an Arnprior fixture for 60 years; so it is indeed gratifying to see them continue to thrive and be an extremely important part of our community.”

Key is that the company has found a way differentiate itself from competitors in India and elsewhere.

Rampton said Pillar5 offers just-in-time products that meet stringent quality and regulatory requirements set out by the Health Canada and the American Food and Drug Administration.

Issues at other plants in the past have cost big pharma companies millions of dollars in sales, along with tainted reputations.

Chief Operating Officer Jamie Moore said the company finds ways to improve speed and responsiveness.

“Anyone who requires a rapid product launch, transfer, or solutions to complex technical challenges, can depend on Pillar5 to offer lightning-speed solutions,” Moore said in a recent press release.

Client privacy is strictly maintained, as per industry norm. So there is no revealing which products on the shelf are made at the Ottawa Valley plant, if any.

Amateur radio operators simulate emergency situations Jessica Cunha jessica.cunha@metroland.com

Paul Coverdale participated in his first amateur radio Field Day in 1963 and has been taking part in them ever since.

The Bells Corners resident, along with other members of the Ottawa Amateur Radio Club, was at the Corkery Community Centre in West Carleton on June 25 and 26 to take part in this year’s Field Day. The 24-hour event sees thousands of amateur radio operators – sometimes called hams – from across North American test their emergency radio communications.

Greg Danylchenko, who lives in Ottawa east, used a high frequency radio operated off the power from a car battery and made contact with other amateur operators in south and in west central Florida on Sunday.

Field Days simulate “emergency circumstances when normal means of communication are not available,” he said.

“Radio amateurs played a vital role in the Ottawa area immediately following the ice storm of January 1998, assisting police, the military and other emergency services when normal communications were paralyzed.”

Aside from testing emergency preparedness, it’s also a fun and social opportunity, said Glenn MacDonell, president of the Ottawa club and the national Radio Amateurs of Canada group. The general public is able to get a look at what

Dr. Corrine Motluk

Dr. Alan Franzmann

they do and the operators compete to see whose communications reach the furthest and who can communicate with the most people.

Those who missed the Field Day events across Ottawa and are interested in amateur radio communications are always welcome to check out the various clubs that exist in Ottawa, said MacDonell, who’s communicated with people across the globe including in Japan, Australia, and Norway.

“It connects people all around the world,” he said. “You don’t have to be an expert. (People) do it for fun, they do it for education and they do it to build their skills. It’s curious people trying new things.”

EXAMINATION

Amateur radio operators have to pass a licencing exam and there are about 70,000 licenced operators in Canada, said MacDonell, who lives in Alta Vista and is also a member of the West Carleton Amateur Radio Club.

Radio amateurs have helped in a number of other international disasters, and local hams often volunteer their time to provide communications at events such as the CN Cycle for CHEO.

Ottawa to host Stanley Cup tribute on Canada’s 170th Staff

MARC BRISSON/SUBMITTED

Just dance, dance, dance The West Carleton School of Performing Arts completed its season with a year-end showcase May 28-29.

Among the performers were young dancers in Kayla Levesque’s creative movement class.

The milestones keep coming for 2017.

Everyone knows that Canada will be celebrating its 150th birthday next year, but within the hockey world, the Ottawa Senators are hitting their 25th season and the Stanley Cup will be marking 125 years.

The Stanley Cup – recently hoisted by the Pittsburgh Penguins – will be part of a signature event in tribute of the prestigious trophy from March 15 to 18, 2017.

The announcement was made at the Canadian Tire Centre on June 14.

There are a lot parties involved to make such an event to happen, from the Ottawa 2017 Bureau, CIBC and the Senators, in collaboration with the National Hockey League, the Office of the Secretary to the Governor General, the Canadian Museum of History and Lord Stanley’s Gift Memorial Monument. “(The year) 2017 will be a remarkable and memorable year for Canada, for hockey and for the Ottawa Senators,” said Senators owner Eugene Melnyk in a news release.

On March 15 there will be a Stanley Cup evening gala at the Canadian Museum of History, where a new exhibition to celebrate the sport of hockey is to be on display.

The showcase officially opens on March 9 and runs to Oct. 9.

On March 16 the Stanley Cup will return to Rideau Hall.

Governor General David Johnston will welcome the cup and the public can have their picture taken, beneath the portrait of Lord Stanley, the originator of the Stanley Cup tradition.

On March 17, the Aberdeen Pavilion is the planned site of festivities. Fans will have the chance to meet NHL alumni at the same place that fans once cheered for the Silver Seven, who are now known as the Senators.

That evening will also include a Stanley Cup 125th Anniversary Tribute Concert at the Canadian Tire Centre in Kanata.

March 18 is the date for the finale.

Residents and visitors will witness the ground-breaking ceremony for a future landmark on Sparks Street, steps from the very birthplace of the Stanley Cup.

Clearing the air: Board of health votes to ban water pipes, hookahs from public places Jennifer McIntosh jennifer.mcintosh@metroland.com

A bid to ban hookahs and water pipes from public places is a step further along thanks to approval by the Ottawa Board of Health on June 20.

The work on the ban began in November.Gillian Connelly, manager of health promotion for public health, said staff conducted consultation with stakeholders, which included five out of the 15 hookah cafes that currently operate in the city.

“Most preferred enhanced regulation around ventilation, special licenses or only allowing in people over the age of 19 over an outright ban,” Connelly said.

The recommendation was originally to start warning businesses Dec. 1, and then begin charging offending businesses in April 2017.

But Rideau-Vanier Coun. Mathieu Fleury said the city should move forward more quickly, successfully putting forward a motion that would see charges begin in the new year.

At the same time as Ottawa Public Health debated the issue, Mayor Jim

Watson was attending the Vanier Community Association’s annual general meeting. When asked about whether he was concerned about the amount of vape shops and marijuana shops popping up on Montreal Road between North River Road and the Vanier Parkway, Watson said the issue has challenges — specifically to the use of medical marijuana — but when it comes to vaping he was clear.

“Smoking is smoking and we all know smoking kills people,” he told the group.

Mustafa Coja, of University of Ottawa Heart Institute, said the major problem is the increasing popularity of hookahs among young people.

A study he presented to the board, showed that 13 per cent of grades 7-12 students have used hookahs at least once in the past year. The same study said that 14 per cent of high school students have used one in the past year.

A single hookah session, which Coja said typically lasts 45 minutes, has 6.5 times more carbon monoxide and 46 times more tar than a single cigarette.

“Cafes help to reinforce the misconception of reduced harm,” he said. “An average hookah session can lead to inhal-

ing 100 to 200 times the volume of smoke inhaled from one cigarette.”

The only real difference is that one contains nicotine, the other doesn’t – but the other harmful chemicals are still there, Coja said.

Carol McDonald, president of the Ottawa Council on Smoking and Health, said that residents are in favour of going 100 per cent smoke free and asked the board to go a step further and licence vape shops. “The city must deal with the explosion of unlicensed vape shops,” she said, adding some are close to schools in her neighbourhood.

Connelly said the ban on hookahs and water pipes is a first step. She said there are still gaps at the provincial level, which include advertising and the ability to sell without a vendor permit.

Staff said they’d have to apply to the Attorney General for the ability to fine once the bylaw is in place, but in Toronto, a first offence is usually around $300. The fine could be given to either the business owner, an individual or both.

The community and protective services committee has to approve the plan next, then the item would go to council for final

Call volume to City waste hotline almost doubles Jennifer McIntosh jennifer.mcintosh@metroland.com

There was a 92 per cent jump in calls to the city’s fraud and waste hotline last year and 2016 is tracking in the same direction, according to the city’s Auditor General Ken Hughes.

That’s an increase in 2015 up to 319 calls, from 166 that were made in 2014. The annual report on the hotline was released to the city’s audit committee on June 20. Hughes said the spike in calls is likely due to increasing confidence that reports to the hotline actually leads to action at city hall.

“They know their reports will be taken seriously and have faith in the anonymity,” Hughes said.

And the faith has paid off.

Six employees were terminated as a result of tips, another resigned after attending a training session for another employer while on medical leave. Two employees were canned for stealing and selling copper. Another employee was fired for stealing $68 from a city facility.

Cumberland Coun. Stephen Blais asked Hughes if there is a breakdown of costs to other departments for investigating the claims.

But several committee members said it’s in the city’s best interests to ferret out any wrongdoing, no matter the scale. “I think the cost of not

doing anything is higher,” said West Carleton Coun. Eli El-Chantiry.

Kanata South Coun. and committee chair Allan Hubley said if someone gets away with stealing $50, they’re likely to try it again.

“These investigations are in the taxpayer’s best interests,” he said.

The investigations don’t always deal with missing property or money. One employee was fired after it was determined they had falsified information in a provincial database to hide the fact that work wasn’t being completed.

Another employee was fired after taking sick leave to work another job. One worker got the boot after not showing up to work after not being able to find a colleague to cover a planned vacation.

While the calls to the hotline continue to increase, the budget shrinks. There are eight staff members in the Office of the Auditor General, two full-time auditors handle the fraud and waste hotline.

The numbers suggest that the work takes up 25 per cent of what the office does. According to the statistics compiled by Hughes, Ottawa has the lowest budget for an auditor’s office in Canada, and that budget has shrunk incrementally each year since 2009.

Kanata North Coun. Marianne Wilkinson broached the idea of looking at the budget, since the call

volume remains high, but Hughes said he knows the city’s budget is tight and there are other things vying for city money.

City manager Steve Kanellakos said the majority of city staff are great workers, but he takes a hard line with those who abuse the system. He said a lot of tips came from fellow workers, who expect their superiors to deal with the situation.

Top six categories for

complaints to the fraud and waste hotline in 2015: * 84 calls: Unauthorized use or misuse of city property, information or time. * 39: Violation of laws, regulations, policies or procedures. * 26: Unethical conduct, conflict of interest. * 24: Suggestions for improvement. * 21: Theft, embezzlement or fraud. * 7: Health, safety, environment.

National Aboriginal Day It was incredible to see so many people at a sunrise ceremony in honour of National Aboriginal Day. The ceremony included an early morning paddle with our Prime Minister and a terrific breakfast reception. Watching the sun rise over the Ottawa River reminds me how incredibly lucky I am to live in this city.

West Carleton, Kanata students launch French language books Jessica Cunha jessica.cunha@metroland.com

A group of four Grade 5 core French students at South March Public School won a national story-writing contest and launched their published book on June 17.

The students wrote a 1,200word book, based on the play Chat Angora that they read in class, and were published by contest host AIM Language Learning.

More than 20 schools across Canada submitted books to the

contest and the published winner will have a place on the shelves at Library and Archives Canada.

The winning group – comprised of students Amy Newsome and Norah Burgess, both of Dunrobin, Briarbrook’s Cordelia TaylorLalonde and Kenzie Greer, of South March – said they had no idea their book would win.

“We were surprised, happy,” said Amy about their reaction when they learned of their firstplace finish.

“We were freaking out,” added

Cordelia.

The process of writing and illustrating their story was “stressful, but it was so much fun,” said Norah.

For Amy, the win “is a one in a million.”

Two other books were written and submitted to the contest by students in the class. The books were self-published and launched during the event.

Every student who participated in the writing and illustrating of the three books were called to the front of the class to receive a certificate recognizing their excellence.

They then participated in a question-and-answer scrum on their success.

“These books are both a product and a process,” said teacher Joëlle Rudick, who has taught many of the students from kindergarten onwards. “The stories are a thousand words long and written in a second, third, and sometimes even a

fourth language.”

Rudick said that writing a book in a second or third language “is something that’s not just a challenge for kids. It’s a big deal.”

Rudick said she was proud of her students for taking on the challenge.

The 16 students in three groups collaborated online to write and illustrate their books on their own time, working during recess and at home.

“Félicitations – this group says it over and over to each other. This group is constantly congratulating each other,” she told the families who attended the book launch.

The entire grades 5 and 6 split class, she said, has made incredible strides with their French language studies.

“Everyone is talented, making improvements.

The lesson is if you apply yourself, you can do anything. I hope you grow up and know you can take on a challenge.”

The Old Town Hall on March road had graffiti tags on June 13. The hydro box and the Shopper Drug Mart were also hit.

Graffiti tags found at Old Town Hall Scott Campbell

scottcampbell@metroland.com

On the morning of June 13, Kitty Langill made a discovery at The Old Town Hall where March and Klondike roads meet that disheartened her – graffiti tags on the quaint old building.

“It’s a heritage building. It’s just senseless tagging,” said Langill. “I called the city and the graffiti was cleaned up by Wednesday evening. They were very prompt.”

Langill belongs to the Kanata March Horticultural Society, and the group holds monthly meetings at the Old Town Hall.

Many other groups also use the facility.

“There are several lovely gardens, a rose arbour for sitting and a nearby play structure,” Langill said. “The garden is dedicated and named after one of the founding members, Molly Wilson.”

Langill added that the hydro box on March Road in the front of the fence and the Shoppers Drug Mart were also targeted

West Carleton Review - Thursday, June 30, 2016 17

Community newspaper readership remains strong in Ottawa and Valley, report shows Community newspapers are alive and well across eastern Ontario. New research conducted by BrandSpark International confirms it.

The Community Newspaper Impact Report, conducted in partnership with Metroland Media, found that 75 per cent of Ontarians surveyed have read at least one of the last four issues of their Metroland Media community newspaper. That rate includes the nine papers in Ottawa and another six in the Valley.

Even more encouraging, 90 per cent of young adults surveyed aged 18-34 across Metroland’s east region report reading their community paper as much or more now than they did a year ago.

That number climbs to 93 per cent among all adults surveyed.

“There is unquestionably a lot of discussion around the role of newspapers in the modern era, and the future of newspapers as a medium,” said Mark Baltazar, Vice President and Partner at BrandSpark International. “But it’s clear from this research that the community news format – free newspapers and websites focused on hyperlocal news – plays a major role in people’s lives.”

According to the findings, more Ontarians surveyed identified community newspapers as the most involved entity in their community.

“Community newspapers, whether in print or online, provide a unique service in Ontario, offering community-level news and information that consumers can’t find anywhere else,” explained Michelle Digulla, Vice-President of Marketing at Metroland Media.

“Not only is that leading to high levels of trust and engagement, but it’s motivating our readers to take action based on what they see in our properties.”

In fact, 77 per cent of the community newspaper readers surveyed agreed that the content of those papers drove them to take action – either visiting a store, buying something, telling someone about a “great deal or product” or going to a website to learn more.

study focused on readership for the more than 100 local websites and community newspapers (including flyers) published across Ontario by Metroland Media, such as the Kanata Kourier-Standard and Ottawa East News. The margin of error is +/-0.85 per cent.

Further, the report found: • 75 per cent of Ontarians surveyed believe their community newspaper or local news website connects them to their community, • printed flyers and promotional materials are used by 81 per cent of respondents to get local shopping information, ahead of store websites (71 per cent) and emails from stores or companies (68 per cent), • more than 7 in 10 (71 per cent) Ontarians surveyed indicated their community newspaper has a positive impact on their local community.

About Metroland Media

The Community Newspaper Impact Report is the second phase of a major research study undertaken by BrandSpark and Metroland.

The first wave of results were published in the Community Newspaper Readership Report in February 2016 and included the following findings: • the typical issue is read twice (2.22 times), and kept in the house for an average of almost four days (3.65 days), • a Metroland community newspaper is most commonly read by two adults in every household, • an average of 22 minutes is spent reading every issue of the community newspaper and any enclosed flyers.

More than 13,000 adults within Metroland’s circulation footprint across Ontario were surveyed online and by phone for the study, which was conducted from Nov. 24, 2015 to Jan. 31, 2016. The

Metroland Media Group Ltd. is a dynamic media company with a long and proud history of creating community connections across Ontario.

Free fishing weekend features children’s derbies July 2, 9 Staff

There are two kids fishing derbies planned in Arnprior to take advantage of Ontario’s Family Free Fishing Week.

The week when people in Ontario can try out the sport of fishing without a licence runs July 2 to 10 this year. It coincides with National Fishing Week.

The Arnprior fishing derbies will be held on the next two Saturdays, July 2 and 9.

The second annual Arnprior Kids Fishing Derby, organized by Darren Wood, will be held this Saturday, July 2 from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. at McLean Park on the Ottawa River.

All young entrants will receive a prize for participating in this “free family event.”

As well there will be prizes for top three heaviest fish caught in the ages 7 and under and 8 to 13 categories. Prizes include trophies, two-man inflatable boats, a camping weekend and more.

There will also be free hotdogs, pizza and drinks for young anglers while supplies last.

Wood promises that a special guest, a Canadian Hall of Fame angler, will drop in on the derby.

“Don’t have tackle? Never been fishing but still want to participate? No problem,” he says.

The derby will be playing host this year to the Tackle Share program initiated by the

Ontario Federation of Anglers and Hunter and now sponsored by Ontario Power Generation. The program allows young anglers to borrow a rod, reel and tackle for a day of fishing.

Organizers “strongly advise” pre-registration so they can ensure there are enough gear, prizes and food to go around.

Forms can be downloaded from www. facebook.com/arnpriorkidsfishingderby or by emailing arnpriorkidsfishingderby@ gmail.com.

The Arnprior Fish and Game Conservation Club is not involved in the derby this year, but is presenting its own Summer Youth Fishing Derby on Saturday, July 9.

The derby will run from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. at the clubhouse at 3399 Leo Lavoie Rd. near where the Madawaska River flows into the Ottawa. Everyone is welcome for a free barbecue and gift bags for all participating children.

Again, as it is being held on free fishing weekend, fishing licences are not required, notes organizer and club member James Kucharik. Bait and fishing rods will be supplied for those who need them, he adds.

For more information, call 613-623-1895 or email arnpriorfishandgame@gmail.com.

CATION

Stay clear of our dams, power stations: OPG urges public If you plan to celebrate the country’s 149th birthday on the waterways or go fishing during free family fishing week, please make safety a priority – especially near hydro dams and stations, urges Ontario Power Generation (OPG).

When heading out this

Canada Day weekend respect the warning signs and barriers at and near OPG’s facilities, says the corporation in a news release.

“Recently, some people have disregarded our no trespassing signs and have gone fishing or boating near our facilities on the Montreal,

Nipigon and Ottawa rivers,” says Mike Martelli, OPG’s president of renewable generation and power marketing “This is dangerous and we work with the Ontario Provincial Police and Transport Canada on enforcement.

Charges can - and have been laid in cases where peo-

ple trespass “Stay Clear, Stay Safe is our message.

“We take your safety seriously, very seriously. Warm weather brings people to rivers, many of which have hydro stations and dams.

The areas around these sites

can be dangerous and are not safe places for recreation.”

OPG owns and operates 65 hydroelectric generating stations and 240 dams across the province. In areas surrounding these stations, changing water levels and

strong undertows can happen quickly.

To view OPG’s public service TV ad, the Power of Water, and to learn more about water safety, visit www.opg. com/watersafety.

“Happy Canada Day!”

M-R water committee chairman needed The Mississippi-Rideau Source Protection Committee is in need of a new chairperson.

Under Ontario’s Clean Water Act, a Source Protection Committee representing multiple stakeholders is required for each source protection region in Ontario. The Source Protection Committee oversees the drinking water source protection program and the composition ensures that a variety of local interests are represented at the decision making table.

The Mississippi-Rideau Source Protection Committee has been in place since 2007 with many of the original members still represent-

ing municipalities, industry, small business, environmental interests, First Nations, agriculture and the general public.

They have worked to establish “effective and fair policies” to protect drinking water sources in the region, specifically the rivers and groundwater that supply municipal drinking water systems.

A new chairperson is required to provide ongoing leadership to the committee and be a “local champion for the protection of our precious drinking water sources.”

The position of chair is a government appointment and is currently being advertised.

Next week celebrates recreational fishing Continued from Page 20

The Canadian National Sportfishing Foundation is encouraging Canadians to “dust off their rods, reels and tackle in preparation of casting a line during National Fishing Week (July 2-10).

In a news release, the foundation calls National Fishing Week a week-long “celebration of a heritage activity integral to our Canadian identity … recreational fishing.”

Fishing is about so much more than just catching a fish, says the foundation.

“It’s about family, fun, and serenity.

“In a world full of distractions, fishing brings us closer to our family and friends, and reminds us of what matters most.

“Fishing is an adventure, and nothing beats the thrill of reeling in the big one.”

Fishing has also been shown to have both mental and physical benefits, says the foundation, so it helps both Canadians, and the Canadian economy. The fishing industry generates more than $8 billion to the Canadian economy.

“Fishing is good for us, plain and simple.

So, this summer the National Fishing Week team encourages Canadians to grab a rod and reel, and go fishing.”

The foundation notes that in Ontario, there is no better time to try fishing as Canadian residents can go fishing in the province without a license July 2 to 10.

Wetlands harbour many treasures for the avid naturalist When summer’s heat arrives, many people head for water.

I also visit wet places but never to swim. The wet places I seek are often not lakes or rivers but swamps and peatlands, places you never would dive into. The reason I visit these wetlands is they are full of fascinating plants and animals.

Recently I led a Macnamara Field Naturalists’ Club outing to one of the most exciting wetlands in our area. We visited the White Lake Fen, a wetland home to a number of rare inhabitants.

Fens are peatlands, habitats created by sphagnum moss forming a floating mat over water. Bogs are also peatlands, and separating the two is not easy.

Some authorities state that sedges dominate fens while sphagnum moss dominates bogs. Others state that pH is the main difference, while others declare the total diversity of plants to be the key.

But the best defining characteristic is how water-borne nutrients arrive in the peatland: if by rainfall only, it is a bog; if carried by groundwater or flowing streams or other waterways, the peatland is a fen.

Fens tend to be richer in nutrients and the White Lake Fen is

very rich indeed. Orchids abound and not only in the open fen.

To reach the fen, we bushwhacked through a mucky, dense, cedar/fir/spruce swamp. Although physically demanding, the effort was well worth it for we passed by many interesting plants including 200 Showy Lady’s-slippers (the official emblem of the Macnamara Field Naturalists’ Club) - all in peak flower.

The fen was also alive with orchids. Hundreds of Rose Pogonia dotted the floating mat and a lesser number of Grass Pinks, one of my favourite wildflowers, were also in bloom.

This Broad-winged Skipper frequents wet sedge meadows, but it often gets nectar from wildflowers growing along roadsides near its habitat. Left, Showy Lady’s slippers, the emblem of the Macnamara Field Naturalists’ Club, are blooming profusely this year.

A highlight of a recent White Lake Fen visit was this Brushtipped Emerald, a more northern dragonfly.

MICHAEL RUNTZ

Congratulations to our 2016 Taste of Summer

Winners!

Orchids in bloom in White Lake Fen Continued from page 22

Both of these pink orchids look as if they have loads of pollen to offer bees, but the pollen-like masses are a ruse, and when a bee visits either orchid it leaves empty-legged.

This year about a hundred White Bog Orchids, which have the unique distinction of smelling like cloves, were also in full bloom.

Above and around us hordes of dragonflies patrolled the air. Many of the large ones were Prince’s Baskettails, and there were also many smaller Racket-tailed Emeralds.

Brilliant green eyes characterize all of the Emeralds, and a few species including the Racket-taileds are common locally. But I also netted a Brush-tipped Emerald, a more northern species. Until the fen trip I had never encountered this species south of Algonquin Park.

After our fen visit was over, I explored wet-

lands along the Bellamy Road. That road is one of my favourites for it meanders through uninhabited country, and is replete with wet meadows, ponds and streams.

Many species of skippers - thumb-nailsized butterflies - inhabit sedge meadows, and they were my focus.

My highlight was a Broad-winged Skipper, a butterfly near its northern range limits here.

As skippers and many other butterflies get nectar from flowers growing along roadsides, I wonder if spraying for Wild Parsnip in Lanark County will have negative consequences for them.

That day the temperature soared to 32 ºC, but I never felt hot.

How could I when visiting some of the coolest habitats in our area!

MNR canine unit helps nab Pakenham man in ‘careless hunting’ case

A Pakenham man has been fined and suspended from hunting for two years.

A Ministry of Natural Resources and Forestry news release reports that Robert Warren pleaded guilty to careless hunting and was fined $1,000.

Additionally, his hunting licence was revoked and he cannot apply for another licence for two years.

Warren also pleaded guilty to hunting deer during the closed season and unlawfully hunting at night, for which he received suspended sentences.

The court heard that on Nov. 22, 2015, a Ministry of Natural Resources and Forestry conservation officer responded to a call on the ministry’s TIPS line about careless hunting in the Pakenham area.

After the investigation that was conducted, with help from the ministry’s canine unit, it was determined that Warren had killed a deer after dark while trespassing on private property.

The ministry reminds the public that laws regarding firearms are in place for the protection of hunters and the general public as well.

Justice of the Peace Jacques Desjardins heard the case in the Ontario Court of Justice, Perth on June 7.

To report a natural resources violation, call the MNR TIPS line at 1-877-847-7667 toll-free any time or contact your local ministry office during regular business hours.

You can also call Crime Stoppers anonymously at 1-800-222-TIPS (8477).

Fire destroys Sugar Bush Road home A house was destroyed by fire at 628 Sugar Bush Rd. south of Pakenham June 21.

A neighbour alerted Mississippi Mills firefighters at 11:54 a.m. Nobody was home at the time of the blaze.

Firefighters on scene reported flames shooting out of the east side of the structure and requested OPP be called in order to shut

down Cedar Hill Side Road at Sugar Bush Road and the 7th Concession in Pakenham.

The Beckwith Fire Department was called to provide tanker support.

Firefighters remained on the scene for about five hours. The damage estimate is $200,000. The cause of the fire was not immediately obvious.

West Carleton Electric, Valley A’s to meet on Harbour Days Scott Campbell

Scottcampbell@metroland.com

The West Carleton Electric fastball team sits in fourth place in the Greater Ottawa Fastball League with four wins and a tie in nine games.

It has fared better than the other West Carleton-based team, the Ottawa Valley A’s, which is in last place in the seven-team league.

The two teams are set to meet for a special match-up on Fitzroy Harbour Days on July 7.

The first pitch at the Fitzroy Community Centre diamond is to be thrown out at 8:30 p.m.

Electric got off to a great start in Fitzroy against the Kars Aces on June 14, racing to an early 5-1

lead, but a big inning by the Aces put them ahead in the fifth and the Electric lost 10-7.

West Carleton Electric rebounded to thump the Stittsville 56ers 10-2 June 21 in Fitzroy Harbour.

Pitcher Andy Barber got the win.

It was Stittsville that hit the scoreboard first, putting up two runs in the opening inning.

West Carleton bounced back quickly in the bottom of the first, Barber lead off the inning with a solo home run.

The team managed four runs overall and took the game over from that point on.

Electric put up three more runs in the second inning.

Barber started things off again

with a double.

West Carleton added to their lead in the third, with Neil Murphy, Charlie Ross and team manager Adam Brown all making it around the bases.

The Electric hit the road to Micksburg to play the Twins June 24, but the trip didn’t turn out well as West Carleton lost 9-1.

Micksburg pitcher Joran Graham earned the win with nine strikeouts in five innings of work while Steve Cavanagh took the loss.

After a scoreless first, the Twins got on the board with two runs in the second.

West Carleton got on the board in the fourth. Neil Murphy singled, took second on a wild pitch and

moved to third on a misplayed grounder that put Mike Cavanagh on base.

A fielder’s choice scored Murphy for the Electric’s lone run.

The Twins put the mercy rule in effect in the fourth on a three-run homer by Connor Moss, which scored Chad Costello and Quinton Rook who had both singled.

VALLEY A’S

The Carp-based Ottawa Valley As and the Quyon Flyers tied 9-9 in a wild Greater Ottawa Fastball League game on the Quebec side, June 18.

Adam Rueckwald and Bryan Armstrong pitched for Valley,

while Matt Greer went the distance for Quyon, his third game in three nights for the Flyers.

Dave Baird hit a three-run homer for Valley. The rest of the game was a lot of back-and-forth between the two teams. Ottawa Valley had to score three in the seventh to tie things with the Flyers.

The Valley A’s, whose record is 2-9-1, were swept in a doubleheader in Manotick on June 22. Kars won the opener 4-2, with Todd Wilson taking the loss for the A’s.

The follow-up wasn’t much better for the A’s as they lost 7-0.

(nee Wilson) of Franktown, Ontario Born August 19th 1934 Died June 22nd 2016 Peacefully in her sleep after a lengthy illness, at the age of 83.

Shash will be greatly missed by her husband, Donald “Scotty” Ferguson, her dog Cheeky, her family and many friends. Shash was born and raised in Ottawa, Ontario, where she met her husband of 60 years. Shirley worked at the Atomic Energy Corporation of Canada until her retirement in 1995. Shirley loved spending time with her husband, going on long car rides down the backcountry roads of the Ottawa Valley. Nothing made her happier than having her husband at her side, the dog on her lap, a cup of tea and biscuit and a good episode of Coronation Street. Her knitted creations and various types of needle work will always be treasured by her family and friends. Besides her husband, Scotty, Shirley Ann is survived by her sisters, Audrey Weatherall of Golden B.C., Francis Bredin of Arnprior, Ontario and many, many nieces and nephews across the country. She is predeceased by her mother and father, Alice and Cecil Wilson and brother Billy Wilson.

A memorial service will be held at the Alan R. Barker Funeral Home, 19 McArthur Avenue, Carleton Place, Ontario, on Sunday July 10th 2016 at 2:00 pm. Interment at Franktown Public Cemetery.

For those who wish, a donation to the Carleton Place Hospital Foundation would be appreciated by the family. www.barkerfh.com

40 Looks Really Good for Queensway Carleton Hospital The history of Queensway Carleton Hospital is intertwined with the history of Nepean – a township established in 1792. Along with the growth of the region, more people meant more accidents, disease and the need for established healthcare in the form of hospitals.

Nepean residents who needed any type of medical attention headed “to town” to visit one of the hospitals, and even in the 1900s, were subjected to long waiting lists. All patients from Carleton County paid a non-resident fee to Ottawa for medical services rendered. It amounted to $1 per day for treatment. Rural doctors, barred from practicing in city hospitals, were moving into Ottawa where the medical profession offered brighter futures.

More than one attempt was made to establish a hospital in the expanding Nepean Township. During the 1950s a group of prominent citizens, led by Dick Bell, sought support from Carleton County Council to construct a hospital. The request was denied by provincial government.

In 1973, the planning group for the hospital started a petition to be signed by regional government officials. That step opened the door for a delegation, including Jean Pigott, MP for Ottawa-Carleton, Aubrey Moodie and Garry Cardiff, to meet face-to-face with Premier William Davis. At the end of the intense meeting, with Premier Davis’ words “…Jean, you never could take no for an answer…” the final go-ahead funding was granted.

Construction Site March 25, 1974

2016

In 1986, the addition of state-of-the-art diagnostic services ensured pr ured patients were provided the best available tools at QCH. 1989 marked a number of firsts as Dr. Adrien Bernard, a QCH Radiologist performed a new procedure which involved inserting a self-expanding stent into obstructed bile ducts, replacing the need for catheters and external draining tubes for the patient. It was a first in Canada. He would again in 1998, become the first Canadian Radiologist to perform a new radiology procedure that removes fibrous growths delaying or eliminating the need for a hysterectomy.

Growth was finally recognized for QCH in 1997 with the province’s Health Services Restructuring Commission. QCH was mandated to change its program concentrations. With the closure of The Salvation Army Grace Hospital, QCH took on the low-risk maternal newborn program. In addition, CT Scan services were added to the list of the hospital’s growing diagnostic functions.

By December 2002, the hospital received its first commitment from the province for much needed expansion to our facilities and the following are some of the many milestones QCH has enjoyed since: • June 2003 – Groundbreaking for new Emergency Department, ICU and inpatient beds.

• September 2004 - QCH opened the new magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) service.

After that hospital construction started in 1974, the need for community-based psychiatric healthcare was evidenced by long waiting lists at The Royal Ottawa Hospital. Queensway Carleton Hospital made its debut in the community by opening its first program, a store-front psychiatric out-patient clinic in Bells Corners in March 1974.

• January 2005 – new Emergency Department, ICU and medicine units open.

By late 1975, a Board of Directors had been formed with Aubrey Moodie as President and Chairman. The framework for the new organization was established with Garry Cardiff as the first Chief Executive Officer.

• February 2008 - Thanks to a $9 million gift from Dan Greenberg, the cancer centre was named the Irving Greenberg Family Cancer Centre.

Early staff, referred to as “the hardhatters”, worked out of trailers and in a semi-finished building in the middle of a field. Staff hires were conducted by ushering candidates along unlit corridors with flashlights, dodging lumber and wiring and guiding the candidates across board walkways over muddy terrain – while wearing their hard hats at all times.

• January 2010 – The Irving Greenberg Family Cancer Centre opens.

On March 8, 1976, construction was near completion and QCH was set to welcome its first inpatient, 88-year-old Stella Monaghan, a long-time Nepean resident. Mrs. Monaghan led the way for a group of 12 geriatric patients admitted to the hospital’s fourth floor that day.

Queensway Carleton Hospital was officially opened by Premier William Davis on October 5, 1976.

The hospital was opened as a 240-bed facility built on its cornerstone programs: Emergency Services (designed to handle 30,000 patient visits annually); Medical and Surgical Services (supported by clinical specialties as well as diagnostic and therapeutic services); Mental Health Services and Geriatric Services.

As QCH prepared for its 10 year anniversary, emergency visits hovered around 59,000, patients waited in areas such as emergency observation and day surgery recovery for inpatient admission, chronic care patients in acute care beds, and long waiting lists for clinics continued to stretch staff and physician resources. The hospital now had just over 900 staff, 200 physicians and more than 400 volunteers.

The focus was on maintaining high quality patient care under extreme patient volumes.

nt at QCH n - First patie ha ag on M la 76 Stel March 10, 19

• March 2006 - the Ontario government announced plans for a satellite cancer centre.

• November 2007 – Launch of Total Joint Assessment Clinic (TJAC).

• September 2012- James Beach Health Care Centre opens. The new 4 story tower include 10 new operating rooms, ambulatory care facilities, a rehabilitation centre, support services and a partnership with The Ottawa Hospital’s Nephrology Program to bring the dialysis service to west-end patients.

The Shirley E. Greenberg Breast Imaging Suite also opens.

• January 2014 – Premier Wynne announces approval for the Acute Care of the Elderly (ACE) Unit.

• October 2016 – The Myers Automotive Acute Care of the Elderly (ACE) Unit will open.

The hospital was built thanks to the efforts of a community who believed the need for comprehensive, accessible healthcare was paramount to making the west end a success. Today, the 264-bed facility and its more than 1,900 employees, 300-plus physicians and 600-plus volunteers, have helped shape west Ottawa and the Ottawa Valley - and plan to carry on that tradition into the future.

Queensway Carleton Hospital will continue to be a vital part p of this communityy and the region for the next 40 years and beyond.

Home run elusive for Senators Karlsson and Turris Scott Campbell scottcampbell@metroland.com

Ottawa Senators captain Erik Karlsson was frustrated. He shouted and cursed and there wasn’t even a hockey puck in sight. He was instead taking swings at a baseball at Raymond Chabot Grant Thornton Park on June 16.

Karlsson donned an Ottawa Champions jersey, while members of the Cham-

pions pitched and also offered tips and suggestions for the best possible swing.

Karlsson’s presence was the culmination of a bet set up back in January with teammate Kyle Turris, who was also taking some swings of his own.

The Senators were on a West Coast trip and Turris started telling a story about how he took batting practice in Phoenix, when he was playing with the Coyotes.

Turris explained how difficult it turned

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

I’ve worked as a bookkeeper for 9 years. I started as a part-time employee but for the last couple of years I’ve worked almost 40 hours a week. My employer is retiring and selling the business. I’ve heard through the grapevine that the buyer is a competing business and likely won’t require my services so I probably will lose my job, but my boss hasn’t told me anything. Is this legal?

Generally, unless you’re unionized, your employment can be terminated at any time by your employer. If a business is sold and certain employees are not offered positions with the new company, they have effectively been laid off.

Although an employer is allowed to end your employment you also likely have a right to compensation.

The majority of employees who are let go are entitled to some salary continuance under the Employment Standards Act. Depending on the wording of your contract or if you were working under a verbal contract, you may also be entitled to additional compensation for “reasonable notice of termination”.

out to be to a hit a pitched baseball.

Karlsson’s reply was simply – he didn’t believe Turris and the bet was born.

Both hockey players were able to crack a few decent hits but there were also many they missed.

Between Karlsson and Turris, Karlsson came the closest to a home run, but ultimately lost the bet.

What exactly was the bet?

That remains between the two Sens.

of notice (in weeks or in months) that an employee should have received to warn them that they are going to lose their job. If an employee is not given any formal notice of termination they can often make a claim for compensation after they have been dismissed. In some situations, where an employee and an employer can’t agree on the amount of compensation to be provided the dispute has to be resolved in Court. However, the vast majority of these cases are settled out of Court, sometimes with the assistance of a lawyer. Finally, if you’ve been a full-time employee for the last year the compensation you receive should be based on your full-time salary or hours.

The projects were selected from 65 ap40 CONDIE ST plications from Ottawa and across the $169,900 country.

cating to finding and experimenting with new and innovative approaches to delivering municipal services. I am incredibly excited to see the results of this program.”

Key2Access partnered with the Canadian National Institute for the Blind to develop their technology and was to demonstrate the product at the intersection of Waverley and Elgin streets on June 23.

The eight projects will be tested for several months, at which point the city will evaluate their performance and provide feedback.

Where a potential improvement is found to a city process, these companies may be moved into the traditional procurement process to compete for work on an ongoing basis.

The move doesn’t require the city to purchase any products or sign to contracts.

The successful pilots are: * VoIPshield, an Ottawa-based company, who will be piloting their VoiceAudit software, which is an important link in ensuring the security of VOIP phone systems. * WAW Technologies, who will test the network monitoring effectiveness of their Catchwire product.

* The innovative new start-up based out of Carleton University, Gamifi, will be running a pilot to provide interactive content for upcoming City of Ottawa staff mental health awareness training sessions. * Local start-up, Syncrodata, will pilot their TrendifyLive social media monitoring and analytics tool. * Savvydox will test a cloud-based document collaboration solution that will manage the application process for the Innovation Pilot Program. * Signority has developed an e-signature that will manage the authorization process for the negotiation of City pilot agreements with successful applicants. * Millenium Inc., is a start-up based out of Waterloo, whose product Lacelabs is an online forum where municipalities can share information regarding pilots that they have undertaken. * Key2Access, in partnership with the Canadian National Institute of the Blind, have developed a product that will assist people with visual and motor impairments in activating the pedestrian walk signal at traffic intersections.

“One of these companies could be the next Shopify,” Watson said.

A nose for anything amiss at the airport Two of Avalon Ranch’s Scent Detection Dogs had their noses put to the test as they searched one of the many hangers at the Arnprior Airport this spring. Top photo, a Belgian Malinois named Jet with head trainer Mary Spurrell is doing a standard container search and sniffing under the wing for hidden essential oils.

Below, nothing can get past this duo as Hoyt, a German Shorthaired Pointer handled by Todd Spurrell, carefully inspects the landing gear of this PA31 Navajo aircraft. The Spurrells have five classes of Sport Scent Detection currently running with all sorts of different breeds at their Horton ranch. They are hosting the Jump into Summer canine watersports competition July 23-24. Visit them at www.avalonranch.ca if you think you might be interested in this exciting sport. The Arnprior airport supports the local community with medevac services and will have its second hanger subdivision completed by the end of this summer.

To make living in cramped quarters easier, parents should sort and pack each day’s clothing in individual bags in his/her suitcase so your child can grab a bag in the morning and have a full set of clothes for the day.

At night dirty clothes can go back in the bag to keep the suitcase cleaner and organized.

Remember that kids will get cold faster than adults in the evening. “The key to comfortable camping with kids is to dress them in several layers, which can be peeled off as they get warm or added on as they cool off.�

Travel the Rideau for an historic boat experience Looking for a memorable and unique vacation adventure? Look no further than The Rideau Canal.

The Rideau Canal is a scenic, historic waterway that winds its way through eastern Ontario to connect the city of Kingston on Lake Ontario with Ottawa. A UNESCO World Heritage Site, the canal was originally built by the British after the War of 1812 to provide a secure link between Montreal and Kingston. Colonel By of the Royal Engineers was in charge of the project and the town settled at the north end of the system was originally known as Bytown, now called Ottawa.

With 47 locks in 25 separate lock stations, the 202 kilometer route is mostly natural river and lakes, with only about 19 kilometers manmade. Today it is a haven for water enthusiasts and boaters of all kinds.

To see the Rideau Canal, you can either you can travel by boat in the canal itself, or you can drive alongside. Some people like to cycle this route.

SEEING THE RIDEAU FROM THE WATER If you have a boat capable of making the journey, you can go on an inland adventure, or go for a guided tour from any of the many operators along the route. The Canal LV JHQHUDOO\ RSHQ WR ERDW WUDIĆ“ F IURP May 20 to October 12. It can be covered in as little as three days by boat, but a more leisurely pace will allow you time to enjoy the many sights and interesting communities along the shoreline.

Though some people do the entire Rideau, others travel just a section.

With over 1,100 km of shoreline, there is plenty to capture your attention.

For a successful boating excursion, it’s always best to plan your route.

There are lots of online resources to help you determine what you’ll need to bring and what you can get along the way.

Start by determining how far you want to go. Make sure you build LQ WLPH WR VZLP Ć&#x201C; VK YLVLW VKRS DQG GLQH <RX ZLOO QHHG WR Ć&#x201C; QG D launching and exit locations to suit your journey, unless it will be round trip.

There are guide books such as the

Rideau Boating and Road Guide and the Ports Guide to help with route planning. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s always wise to have nautical charts too, available for online ordering from Ontario Travel Guides. Get your charts at the start of your planning so you can become familiar with them before setting out.

Remember to take your time and enjoy the ride. An average trip of Ć&#x201C; YH GD\V WR D ZHHN ZLOO JLYH \RX plenty of time to sightsee and relax.

Travelling through a lock can take about 30 minutes if there is no lineup.

HOW TO GET THERE By water, enter the Rideau at Kingston Mills lock station (from the St. Lawrence/Lake Ontario) or enter at Ottawa from the Ottawa River. If trailering, there are a multitude of access points along the Rideau as well as marinas with ramp access.

SERVICES ALONG THE RIDEAU It is easy to provision from the many grocery stores along the route in waterway towns such as Seeleys Bay, Newboro, Westport, Portland, Smiths Falls, Merrickville and Manotick.

In addition to the grocery outlets and fuel depots, most marinas and a few of the lock stations supply ice.

Fuel and pump outs are available from many marinas along the Rideau. Some offer gas and diesel.

For those without an on-board head, all lock stations have public washrooms as do most of the marinas.

Dockage between the marinas and the lock stations is available and can be pre-arranged. Camping is available at local campgrounds, including two Provincial Parks, or at most lock stations.

Traveling The Rideau by water is memorable holiday adventure, no matter what kind of boat you use.

The lovely scenery will enchant you while you explore the rich history of the waterway. Take time to photograph the abundant waterfowl and wildlife, stop for a refreshing swim, or enjoy a picnic at a lock station or mooring.

To break up the journey, welcoming small towns such as Newboro, Portland, Westport or Merrickville are great for a shopping excursion

on shore.

SHE WORKED HARD TO BUILD UP THE FRENCH COLLECTION FOR THE KIDS AT CHEO. SHE WANTED TO LEAVE A MARK AND HELP TO PROVIDE FOR FUTURE GENERATIONS. THIS IS WHAT MOTIVATED HER TO MAKE A GIFT IN WILL TO CHEO. By making a planned gift to CHEO you not only help future generations of children, but you also provide some tax relief to your estate, while still providing for your family members.

Here are some ways you can create your Forever CHEO legacy: make a bequest in your Will; create an endowment fund; name CHEO as the beneficiary of your RRSPs or RRIFs; or take out a life insurance policy with CHEO as the beneficiary.

CONSIDER CREATING A TRULY LASTING LEGACY AND HELP TO ENSURE THAT CHEO IS FOREVER PART OF OUR COMMUNITY.

Your gift keeps on giving. Forever.

For more than 40 years our community has benefited from the care and medical expertise at CHEO. While some of us have thankfully never had to use CHEO, others have for minor or sometimes more serious issues. The one commonality we all share is a great respect and appreciation for CHEO. We want it to be here for our kids, our kids’ kids and beyond that. That is what Forever CHEO is all about!

Harry with the Heaves held a special place in Mary’s heart

My brother Emerson said I wasn’t the sharpest knife in the drawer when it came to the farm animals.

Except for the cows, which I wasn’t too fond of, I wanted all the others for pets.

Emerson said if I had any brains, I would know that you didn’t raise livestock for pets.

Eventually, they would go off to market, or end up in the smokehouse! But I tended to put those thoughts out of my mind.

Even after my pet black lamb ended up on the supper table one night, sending me into hysterics and turning me against lamb for the rest of my life, I still thought I could make pets out of the farm animals.

Even though I wasn’t too fond of the cows, I loved the calves. It was no chore for me to feed a sickly calf from a bottle, until it was able to feed itself.

Holding a screeching baby pig, with its soft body feeling like that of a real live baby, filled me with the utmost joy.

And then there was poor old Harry with the Heaves. He was never called just plain Harry. It was Harry with the Heaves.

Harry was a horse that had been around the farm long before I was born, and I loved him with a passion.

Apart from the heaves, he had a sway where you could rest a couple bags of grain if you were so moved, and that was why he

Mary Cook’s Memories MARY COOK

had the heaves, Father said.

Harry with the Heaves was no longer able to do any farm work, and my sister Audrey said the only reason he was still kept around, was because Father knew how much I loved the poor old horse. He didn’t eat much, which maybe helped too.

Harry with the Heaves didn’t move around like the other horses, preferring to stand at the fence behind the barn, resting his head on the rails.

Every day I would put a halter on him, and walk him very slowly around the barnyard. We wouldn’t be gone a dozen steps, when the heaves would start. They seemed to come right from his hooves.

And I would stop and let him heave away until the spasm passed, and then we would walk around another few steps, with his head

getting lower and lower to the ground.

The few times we hitched him to the buggy, it was like we were giving him a new lease on life. There were strict orders from Father not to run Harry with the Heaves ... just let him move at his own pace, which wasn’t very fast.

But I could tell he loved pulling the buggy.

And we would circle the barnyard a couple times, until he could no longer breathe eas-

It was Harry with the Heaves.

Harry was a horse that had been around the farm long before I was born, and I loved him with a passion. ily. But it was enough to make the old horse feel he was needed, even if we really weren’t going anywhere.

Other sickly animals would just disappear, and I knew perfectly well what their fate was.

But Harry with the Heaves lived on, contributing nothing to the workload of the other horses, just living day by day with his condition getting worse right before my eyes.

And then one day, when I came home from school, I couldn’t see Harry with the Heaves anywhere.

I thought he may have wandered into the

field behind the barn, but no, he wasn’t there.

I may not have been the sharpest knife in the drawer, just like my brother Emerson said, but no one had to tell me that Harry with the Heaves wouldn’t be around any more. Nothing was said about his missing.

Not a word from Father, the brothers. ... no one said a word.

He was just gone. And I knew, without anyone telling me, that my beloved horse was no more. Not a word was spoken about his end. It was as if Harry with the Heaves had never existed.

A deep sadness came over me. My horse was gone.

Like so many disappointments, and sad happenings on the farm, there was no discussion … no explanation. It was thought the less said the better.

I cried for Harry with the Heaves only when I was alone. And I prayed wherever he had gone, he would be hale and hearty, running around with other horses, eating the finest hay and oats, his back in shape, and the heaves a thing of the past.

To ease the pain in my heart, I had to believe it.
