WCSS student elected OCDSB student trustee BY JAKE DAVIES
jake.davies@metroland.com
For the second time in three years, a West Carleton Secondary School student was elected student trustee to the Ottawa Carleton District School Board (OCDSB). Seventeen-year-old Rita Ramotar who will enter Grade 12 next year was elected to the position in February. “I’ve been a student senator and worked with the senate for about a year,” said student trustee elect Ramotar as to why she wanted to run. “Just being a part of that empowered me.” The OCDSB Student Senate is responsible for providing opportunities for students to become informed and involved in board governance and understand the issues and operation of public education. The senate’s mandate is to advise the student trustees in matters relating to OCDSB students. They are also responsible for electing the two student trustee positions as well as senate members as observers at board standing and advisory committees. The senate also determines a process for communicating information to the student councils and to the students at their schools, and when appropriate, feeder schools. The senate consists of one student voting member from each secondary school; two non-voting board members; and one school administrator. The student trustee sits as a member of the school board representing the students that make up the board (all other trustees on the board represent the taxpayer). They are elected by their peers. During the election process four representatives from each OCDSB high school, usually leaders from their schools, are entitled to vote following a brief campaign period where each candidate is able to make his or her case to the voters. Ramotar says her goal as trustee, as well as in to the future, is to remain flexible. “I don’t like to conform to a goal

WCSS Grade 12 student Rita Ramotar was recently elected OCDSB student trustee at the trustee elections held last February. While Ramotar has no personal goals, she knows she has a role. “My role is to communicate and collaborate with OCDSB students,” she said. “It’s a commu-
because I know I will change going in to the future,” she told the West Carleton Review. “Even with this role, I know I will change a lot and may be a totally different person in a year.”
nication role between the students and I want to flourish in that role. “I don’t see my age as a limitation, but an advantage. Policies instituted
by the trustees directly affect me.” Despite students across the province heading in to their summer break, Ramotar will be spending her summer preparing for a busy return to school next fall. She sits on the executive council of the Ontario Student Trustees Association and says she will be focusing on school work that might be missed with the increased workload. “I really want things to go smoothly with the role,” Ramotar said. “It just comes down to time management.” Ramotar says she has already attended a couple of committee of the whole and board meetings. “I’d really like to stress the trustees have been very welcoming and have helped ease the transition even though I haven’t started yet,” she said. “The outgoing student trustee has been a huge help.” Much like politics in the real world, some students don’t feel the board has much of a role in their world. “I recommend students speak to their student-senator, and look in to the position,” Ramotar said. “Become acquainted with your senator and learn about the work they do and how it can help you as a student.”

West says goodbye to 257 graduates BY JAKE DAVIES
jake.davies@metroland.com
Pomp, circumstance and 257 young adults filled the West Carleton Secondary School gym as family, friends, teachers, trustees and Principal Reg Lavergne paid tribute to the Class of 2017. “We made it,” Principal Lavergne said. “This has been the most interesting year. Lots of learning and lots of learning we weren’t expecting. Today is a major accomplishment and you should be very proud.” The school which opened in 1988 has only grown in size since that time. This was evidenced not only by the massive addition construction workers were working on in the rain outside, but also by the overflow room needed to house graduation attendees watching via video-feed who could not fit in the double-gym where the ceremony was taking place. “I used to think a doublegym was a really big space,” Ottawa Carleton District School Board Zone 1 trustee Lynn Scott said. “As I look around
today, I can’t help but think West could use another doublegym.” There were exactly as many smiles in attendance as there were guests. “What’s been a lifetime for you, has been a blink of the eye for your parents,” Lavergne told the young graduates. “You are fantastic people. Four years ago, we walked in to the school together. It’s been an honour to spend that time with you and a privilege to graduate from West with you (Principal Lavergne will be in a new role next year).” Trustee Scott had some advice for the graduates. “There is only one test,” she said. “The test is for you and your expectations in life. You really have tried to be useful members of society. You’ve been good friends, neighbours, family members. I don’t think anyone can deny, despite the weather outside, the sun is shining brightly in here.” Following the opening addresses from the principal and the trustee, the heavy hardware was handed out. West boasted 128 Ontario
scholars and 30 Silver Medal Award of Excellence winners in the Class of 2017. West also boasted Emma Copeland. Copeland was selected out of 35,000 applicants from across the country and was honoured with the CIBC Student Life Network scholarship for $20,000 during the WCSS graduation ceremony. The scholarship is awarded to a student who made student life more awesome through life changing opportunities, unique contests and helpful resources. Following the awards and diplomas, Valedictorian Robert Morissette addressed his fellow graduates and the guests in the auditorium. Morissette was chosen by his peers based on his commitment to academics, his dedication to West and his ability to be representative of the Class of 2017. Morissette had a 94 per cent grade average while at West; was a member of the school bands and choir; played on Jake Davies/Metroland the school basketball and ultimate teams; and was the Euclid Some WCSS grads pose for a photo after the ceremony.

Principal Lavergne read some comments he received while searching for the perfect valedictorian. “Everyone likes him and he treats everyone with respect,” Lavergne said. “He’s totally lit. Exceptionally kind and friendly.” “Well here we are,” Morissette told the Class of 2017. “Our entire high school career comes to a close today. We have grown, certainly vertically, but as people too.” Morissette said it was ironic he wanted to talk about communication as he has no cell phone and was not a Facebook member until the previous Monday. “There’s a lot more to communication then typing a random phrase and pressing post,” he said. “It’s important to stick to your morals and do what you think is right. Everyone has opinions. Listen. Try to find a way to understand why they think the way they do. “You will be able to better understand. Be firm, but not unshakeable. Whether you already know, or this is breaking news, you WCSS Class of 2017 Valedictorian Robert will not always be right.

Graduates have what it takes
Last week was high school graduation time. Mortarboards and gowns, that traditional graduation garb, set the fashion trend for the week as Grade 12 graduates at every high school strode and received a secondary school diploma from a principal, vice-president or teacher, with beaming smiles all around. These smiles were not only on the stage, but throughout the audience, on the faces of proud teachers, parents, family members and friends of the graduates. These secondary school graduation diplomas represent more than just the successful completion of 14 years of schooling, starting with junior kindergarten and continuing through to Grade 12. Quite simply, these diplomas represent the future. You only had to be at one of these high school graduation ceremonies to appreciate not only the accomplishments of these graduates to date, but also the unprecedented opportunities which await them in the coming years. Whether they are off to university, college or the world of work, these graduates have before them endless possibilities for further personal growth and additional learning. Whether it is in nursing, law, social work, interior decorating, software development, animation, marketing, engineering, construction or any other field of endeavour, these young graduates have been armed with all of the tools necessary to succeed in their chosen pathway. But more than this, this generation of graduates has
developed a sense of social justice and community volunteering that will ensure a future that is not only more compassionate, but more participatory. That’s because the high school education of today goes beyond just the "three R’s" and the curriculum. In high school, youth get to know about taking responsibility for this world of ours, for preserving it and for making it a better place to live, work and play. They get to know how to do this in part thanks to the clubs and extracurricular activities in which they participate in their high school years. But they also know how to do this because, besides their learning, they have developed what it takes to succeed in today’s world — skills like collaboration, digital fluency, critical thinking, resiliency, perseverance and empathy. They are globally aware. They respect and accept others for who they are. They are ready to make a difference in the world, not only with their learning, but also with who they have become on their journey through the education system to date. This all gives so much hope, not only for where society is headed in the future, but also for seeing how our goals and aspirations as a country of communities are going to be realized. It will all happen because of these young people who this past week strode across a stage to receive a secondary school diploma. They have what it takes to take us to the next level as a country and as a society. We can’t wait for it to happen!
There's something to be said for team sports
S
o, the kids are out of school — at loose ends — complaining about being bored, while you try to figure out how to keep them away from screens. It’s an age-old dilemma, although there are a lot more screens than there used to be. Myself, I’d get them into team sports. Yes, they went out of fashion some time ago, when lots of people decided that competition was an ugly thing — and indeed it can be, when carried to extremes. That goes for life, not to mention politics, as well as baseball. One of our great national heroes, Pierre Elliott Trudeau, was not a team sports guy. Dubbed a “single-combat warrior” by the great Canadian journalist Richard Gwyn, Trudeau preferred judo and canoeing to baseball, although he was knowledgeable about
CHARLES GORDON Funny Town the latter. But, times change and the pendulum swings back. A more contemporary Canadian hero, Barack Obama, was a team sports guy; a pickup basketball enthusiast. In our town, every available field has some team or another playing on it. There is a lot more soccer than there used to be, which partly reflects changing demographics and partly reflects economic practicalities: to outfit a soccer team, all you really need is a ball, although jerseys are nice.

have baseball games going on, which reflects a bit of a comeback for the sport. The ugly days of major league strikes and steroid scandals are in the past, and the recent successes of the Toronto Blue Jays have stimulated a renewed interest in the sport. Baseball as big business has its faults. If you visit the Rogers Centre in Toronto to see the Blue Jays, you will be overwhelmed by the noise and commercialism and underwhelmed by the comfort of the seating. On a smaller scale, such as at RCGT Park in Ottawa — where the Ottawa Champions play — some of the age-old attractions of the game reappear. The grass is real, the fans are close to the action and the sounds of the game are not drowned out by electronic clatter. Add to this the small-scale charm of the minor leagues, cheesy between-
innings contests, the 50-50 draw. A new one on me is the Poutine Batter promotion, in which one opposition player is designated the Poutine Batter, and every time he comes to bat, the crowd has a chance at free poutine if he strikes out. Although this has the virtue of being a uniquely Canadian event, it seems a bit petty of us to be wishing ill on a player just because we’re hungry. One day I was there, the Poutine Batter was a member of the Cuban National Team called Juan Torriente. He disappointed the fans five times, although he got to two strikes twice, causing brief excitement. By contrast, on the smallest scale of baseball — the Little League diamonds — I didn’t hear anybody cheering for opposing players to strike out. I also didn’t hear any parents or coaches yelling at the 10-year-old
players or 14-year-old umpires. I just saw kids, boys and girls, bonding, encouraging the other players on their team and saying “good try” even when they failed. That’s how team sport is supposed to work. I’m glad it still does.

ANNUAL MADE IN CANADA
CBBCA is continuing SALE to do a lot of work HST TAX Editor: Re: The article of June 27, “The city’s efforts are winding down” The interview with Eli El-Chantiry correctly stated that the City of Ottawa’s efforts are winding down and the City of Ottawa no longer requires volunteers. The city is only one partner involved with the recovery. By not following up with the CBBCA and clarifying the current needs and current services available the article has made it sound like all services are winding down. This is not the case. The CBBCA continues to do a lot of work. The city may have left the Community Centre but the CBBCA continues to operate and provide services. The Red Cross is still on site two days a week, as is the WOCRC (West Ottawa Community Resource Centre). There were two inaccuracies in the article - The CBBCA is supporting homeowners with mould spraying, not the city. The city doesn't answer the phone at the community centre, CBBCA volunteers do. We are now providing engineering inspections, water heaters, water pumps, guidance/support filling out forms, vapour barrier and insulation, drywall, we are still working with organizations to help people who need larger rebuilds, we are helping those who cannot afford plumbers or electricians to get them back into their homes. We rented a truck last weekend and distributed materials and equipment to flood affected homes. The CBBCA has coordinated the loan of commercial dehumidifiers and fans, regular dehumidifiers and fans, collected loaned equipment and clothes, helped with cleaning out basements. We have helped people get food and clothing. We have supplied $15,000 worth of mould control spray alone - helped educate people to
FINAL 3 DAYS
ensure they get their flood damaged properties cleaned up before serious mould happens - and we continue to do that. We make sure people doing their own work have the proper personal protective equipment. All with volunteers and donations. The work that the volunteers did to minimize the damage with pumping and sandbagging homes cannot be overstated. The calls for pumps and hose and shop vacs and middle of the night help with same was through volunteers. The work to get the tear outs and the clean ups/dry outs and the mould control done as quickly as possible to minimize damage was done by volunteers. We hopefully won’t have homes disintegrating due to rot like New Orleans or inches of mould in completely uninhabitable homes for years to come like New Jersey because of the efforts of volunteers. Every spare moment that many of us have we are dedicating to helping flood victims. Every single day there is a new story of someone else who needs our help. We are volunteers and we are continuing to work every single day on flood relief efforts. We aren’t there as much as we would like to be because we are struggling to get enough volunteers who can do the work we need to get done. Our handful of volunteers know their efforts are bringing good. The article of June 27 made these tired and underappreciated people angry, frustrated and defeated. We are not winding down. We have lots to do. We need all organizations to help spread that word – not publish half-finished stories that do not accurately explain the current state of the situation.

You describe Ms. McCrimmon as extremely intelligent; I must now question if she is so intelligent, why would she even attend a Carp Men’s Night? Readers are led to believe that one of the reasons for Mr. MacLaren’s supposed ejection was his misogynistic comment toward Ms. McCrimmon. Yet later in the letter, one sentence reads: “It tells men that no consequences will be met.” It is difficult to discern your mixed message. In the letter, Jack’s daughters were reflecting on their beloved dad and never did they brush off his lewd comments. They focused on the fact that he is not a “career politician”, he just doesn’t play the game. Mr. MacLaren has the courage to stand up for what is “right”, similar to
what JFK expresses so eloquently in his book called, Profiles in Courage. Allow me to quote yet another revered politician. “You have enemies? Good, that means you stood up for something in your life”. A motto that Jack MacLaren lives by, without doubt. I would like to suggest that Ms Veale get involved in her community. She would then have an opportunity to witness how the real world functions. May I suggest in the future that she have her facts straight before she pens a letter to the local media. It is easy to judge those in public office, but inappropriate to rely on what is becoming a popular term, “alternate facts”. Penny McNeely Carp, ON.
The Herb Garden owners set to retire after 13 seasons BY JAKE DAVIES
jake.davies@metroland.com
Gerry and George are retiring from The Herb Garden. After 13 years of growing The Herb Garden in to a multifaceted business, the couple, Gerry Bedard and DE George have decided it is time to sell the popular farm on Old Almonte Road. The couple, known affectionately as Gerry and George, bought the nearly 15-acre farm from Sharon and Gerry Channer in 2004, got married on the property and grew the business in to a well-known herb garden, wedding destination and special event host. “It has been a lot of hard work, but it’s been a labour of love, it had to be,” George said. “We’ve had marvelous staff who love to learn, however it’s time for us to move along. There’s a ton of potential here but the property needs younger energy than we have now.” Both George and her husband Gerry are in their 70s. “It’s been a decision we’ve come to over a couple of years,” George said. “There have been a lot of mixed emotions. It’s just time.” When the couple bought the

fully supportive from thousands of kilometers away.” Gerry and George came from a marketing background. They took over The Herb Garden and also Herbfest, a popular festival featuring music, food, vendors and herbs. “The original idea was Herbfest would move around to different locations,” George said. “The first year there was about 1,500 people and they knew it was too big to go anywhere else. We hosted Herbfest for 20 years.” At its peak, Herbfest attracted more than 3,000 visitors. Two years ago, Gerry and George decided it was time to move on from Herbfest. They did not want to end the popular festival and after some negotiations, the festival found a new home in White Lake where it debuted last year. The Herb Garden has become a popular home to other events as well. The scenic spot has hosted a special Mother’s Day brunch for the last 13 years, special sales events and the Company of Fools which stages a performance each year on the property. See HERB on Page 26

Grade 8 graduation at St.Michael’s Fitzroy SPECIAL TO THE REVIEW
Thirteen Grade 8 students at St. Michael Catholic School at Fitzroy Harbour are off to high school this September. The students received their grade eight diplomas at a ceremony at the school on Tuesday evening, June 27 following a graduation mass with their families at St. Michael Catholic Church right across the street from the school. In addition, 17 awards marking individual accomplishments in various subject and achievement areas were presented at the ceremony. Dylan Swire was the valedictorian for this year’s Grade 8 graduating class at the school. The third generation of his family to graduate from St. Michael’s, he noted in his valedictorian
address that most of the Grade 8 class had been together at St. Michael’s for ten years, ever since entering kindergarten at four years of age. He said that while the graduating students were moving on to high school this September, he and his classmates will never forget the memories that they have from the past ten years at St. Michael’s. In his remarks at the graduation ceremony, principal Dwight Delahunt recalled his own elementary school Grade 8 graduation 52 years ago, after which he went on to attend St. Pius Catholic High School in Ottawa. He advised each graduate to be the best that he or she can be each day in high school to achieve success. See AWARDS, page 15

KIN Vineyard’s new tasting room features Allan Joyner’s prints SPECIAL TO THE REVIEW
The art of photography has seen major changes over the last 30 years. From its beginnings in film to today’s digital cameras, and now on everyone’s mobile phones, the technology used to take photos has all changed and then changed again. Carp photographer Allan Joyner has worked through every stage of this transition
and today uses a digital SLR camera as well as his iPhone for the images featured in clients’ social media, local news and in area art exhibits. KIN Vineyard’s new tasting room at their vineyard on Craig Side Road officially opens this week and they have chosen Allan’s large prints of local and area landscapes to display on their walls for their opening month.
“Images for large prints like the ones for KIN’s exhibition, or my work in the Carp Fair offices can’t be taken on a phone” says Allan, “They just don’t have the detail for large prints, but for social media, photo books and modest sized prints, mobile phone pictures can be superb.”
Allan and his wife Michelle have operated a video and multimedia production and photography company for over 30 years and the business has evolved with the changing requirements for video and photography. See ALLAN JOYNER, page 19

Allan Joyner offering course on taking photos with iPhone
Continued from page 18
Traditional communications and marketing platforms have given way to a greater demand for social media and website content. “For us, adapting to what each new advance brings to our customers is what has kept us busy for so long.” Michelle comments. “We would never have been able to be as effective as we are producing images for social media if we still used the technology of 10 years ago.” And Allan adds, “I wouldn’t think of going out on a shoot without adding my iPhone to my professional gear.” Allan’s photo courses have helped a lot of local enthusiasts learn how to take better pictures with their digital cameras. He recently offered one as a fundraiser for the Friends of the Carp Hills and a number of people asked if iPhones were welcome. A couple of the
attendees used their phones and that encouraged Allan to begin offering dedicated iPhone training. Many people don’t understand how to maximize the power of their iPhone camera and don’t know about the amazing apps available to enhance the pictures you take to full effect. “I often can’t tell whether Allan used his professional DSLR or his iPhone when I see his images these days.” says Michelle. “He loves how easy it is to make great captures with the phone and helping others do the same is a lot of fun for him.” There are a few spots still available for the full day iPhone photo instruction course Allan is offering on Saturday, July 15th. Course information and his photo galleries are on his website at allanjoynerphotography.ca.

Fergus has a shocking experience in the barnyard
W
hen Fergus first arrived on the farm he was quite overwhelmed. All of the sights, sounds and smells filled his senses and he spent many long hours sitting on the front porch, surveying his new kingdom. Occasionally he would summon the nerve to hop down the big set of stairs that his little legs could barely reach, so that he could lie on the cool green grass and nap. That was when he was nine weeks old. Over the next month, Fergus’ legs grew so that he could leap up and down any set of stairs with ease if not grace. He began chasing the birds that had scared him by swooping down and dive bombing him when he had first arrived on the scene. He followed his nose down a groundhog hole under the playhouse and discovered the joy of running laps in the loose soil of my vegetable garden. Finally, after weeks of sitting on the back deck studying the cattle in the meadow, Fergus decided to wriggle under the fence to the barnyard. On his first attempt he was scolded for eating the garbage ash around the burn barrel. He immediately understood that he was not to go into the barnyard again, after a sharp tap on
the butt and a stern tone of voice from his master. However, the attraction was too great. The next time I caught him tip toeing deeper into the barnyard and peering around the corner of the shed toward the big barn. “Fergus!” I shouted. He turned and looked at me, then turned back and ran as fast as he could toward the manure pile. I had just dumped the kitty litter there and realized, with horror, that he thought he could smell a potential midday snack. Over the next week we caught Fergus in the barnyard several times a day, sampling other disgusting delicacies. He developed a digestive issue. I was up two and three times a night, changing the puppy pad at the end of his bed. Fergus needed a bath in the morning, as he had soiled his fur. The vet did a test on his feces and called me with the results. “We found something strange in Fergus’ poop,” she announced, “so we sent it off to someone who looks at this sort of thing all day long.” I can only imagine a few jobs worse than that. “It seems Fergus has a rare parasite that is usually only found in earthworms!” she declared. “Is it possible that he has been eating mud?” I had to laugh. Mud? Try mud,
DIANA FISHER The Accidental Farmwife
“He...is determined never to let his collar sting him again.” manure, cat litter, garden soil … anything that is smelly and on the ground at Ferg level. The vet assured me that the parasite would harmlessly work its way through the puppy’s system. She also prescribed something for the loose bowel problem. Then I looked at the bigger picture. We had to find a way to keep Fergus out of the barnyard. We have inherited the invisible fencing collar that my daughter used with
her hunting dogs. The first morning I walked the perimeter of the property with him on a leash beside me. Every time the collar beeped I told him “no no no” the way I always do when he is leaving his boundary. I made sure the system was set to encompass his established toilet area, the front and back porch and plenty of yard. But he could no longer access the chicken shed, my vegetable garden, or his beloved barnyard.
I adjusted the collar to Fergus’ scrawny little puppy neck, and set him free. Within five minutes he was under the fence and trotting happily into the barnyard. Just then, the collar started to beep. He stopped, turned and looked at me, wide eyed. “Come, Fergus!” I called, holding the gate open to the house yard. He turned to go farther into the barnyard, and then suddenly started hopping around and yelping as if he had been stung by a bee. He yipped and yelped and covered the fifteen feet between us in about three leaps, landing in my arms. He shivered and whimpered like a European football star who had just had his ear flicked during a match. I set the collar a little lower in intensity, realizing it had been dialed up to control Annie’s high-strung German Pointer, Skor. Surely a little Golden Retriever doesn’t need more than a subtle reminder of his boundaries. Now Fergus turns tail and runs back to the house whenever he reaches the outskirts of his property and his collar begins to beep. He is a smart dog and is determined never to let his collar sting him again. Email: dianafisher1@gmail.com w w w. t h e a c c i d e n t a l f a r m w i f e. blogspot.com

Constance Bay boy beneficiary of Orléans blood drive BY BRIER DODGE
brier.dodge@metroland.com
Lincoln Stoate kicked off his sixth birthday with a treasure hunt at school with his classmates. His second stop was a celebration alongside the people who allow him to go to school in the first place: blood donors. Lincoln celebrated his sixth birthday at the blood drive at
the Community Pentecostal Church in Orléans on June 26, complete with a cake and visit from firefighters from the Jeanne d’Arc station. The Constance Bay boy has an immune deficiency, and relies on blood donors to stay healthy. He’s able to be a regular child, going to school and playing hockey for the West Carleton Warriors because he
receives weekly infusions of plasma. Before he got the plasma, he was getting sick multiple times a year. “He wouldn’t be able to fight anything on his own,” said his mother, Amy. He fought pneumonia many times and was in and out of hospital before he started getting weekly immunoglobulin replacement therapy in March 2014. He switched
Notice of Completion Baseline Woodroffe Stormwater Management Pond Class Environmental Assessment Class Environmental Assessment Study Report Available for Review The City of Ottawa has completed a Municipal Class Environmental Assessment (Class EA) Study for the construction of a stormwater management (SWM) pond at the northeast corner of Baseline Road and Woodroffe Avenue. The pond will provide treatment and flow control for runoff from some 435 hectares that currently drain uncontrolled to Pinecrest Creek. The Baseline Woodroffe SWM pond was identified as a priority project in the Pinecrest Creek/ Westboro SWM Retrofit Study (P/W Study), completed in 2011. The P/W Study was completed as a Master Plan under the Municipal Class EA process, identifying a preferred SWM retrofit plan composed of multiple projects. Prior to implementation, individual infrastructure projects recommended in the retrofit plan are required to complete additional Class EA requirements. For the Baseline Woodroffe SWM pond, the process for a “Schedule B” undertaking has been followed in accordance with the Municipal Class EA (2000), as amended 2007 and 2011.
later that fall to a process that can be done at home, giving him more plasma. Within a few months, his parents noticed his infections were slowing down. Now, he has “belly day” every Sunday at home, where he gets his plasma in an hourlong process. It keeps his immune system strong, and Lincoln is able to be around other children carrying germs, and healthy enough to play hockey and T-ball. Lincoln had a special cake at the blood drive that he shared with the people who had just finished donating their own blood. Jim Wills, an Orléans resident who has donated blood for 30 years, said he gives blood to honour his brother who passed away and others in his family who have needed donated blood. “You just want to do something to help,” he said as he ate a piece of birthday cake. “We’re extremely grateful for their time and their selflessness,” said Amy. “Just that one small act that you do can
change somebody’s life. If we didn’t have donors, Lincoln wouldn’t have this medicine to keep him healthy, and his life would be dramatically different.”
DRIVE FOR 150 The June 26 event was also a special blood drive with a goal of collecting 150 units of blood from 150 donors, said Mary Ann St. Michael of Canadian Blood Services. Staff’s goals were exceeded, with 165 units collected from 165 donors. She said Orléans residents donate more blood than anyone else in Eastern Ontario outside of the main office, and monthly blood drives at the church bring an average of 144 units of blood. Every other month, about 115 units are donated at the blood drive at Sir Wilfrid Laurier Secondary School. “There isn’t another community outside our permanent centre that does that,” said St. Michael. “It’s a really generous community of blood donors.” There have been calls out for more blood donations, particu-
larly in the lead up to Canada Day. As of June 27, St. Michael said there was a particular need for O negative blood, the universal donor type. She said there was currently a four-day supply of O negative on hand, with a five- to eight-day supply of blood and blood products needed to meet anticipated hospital needs. About 25 RCMP staff were shuttled to the Orléans blood drive to contribute to the 165 total and help bring up the inventory. “I believe it’s important to give blood when we have a chance, and the clinic made it really easy for us,” said RCMP officer Isabelle Trudel, who coordinated the effort from their Orléans office. Another blood drive was planned in Orléans on Canada Day – with a little more than 80 per cent of the appointments filled up as of June 26, St. Michael said. “It’s so steady, there’s so many people,” Amy said. “It’s awesome – it makes us feel really happy and grateful.”
A Class EA Study report has been prepared documenting the problem statement, existing conditions, evaluation of pond options and the selection of the preferred solution, public and agency consultation as well as potential construction impacts and mitigation measures.

I now make sure I have plenty of Kleenex – I’ve been caught a few times.” Despite the wonderful memories, the couple already have future plans firmly in place. They have a home in the Town of Almonte ready to move in to. A trip to Australia to visit Gerry’s brother is already scheduled. “I love Almonte,” George said. “I’m looking forward to getting my bike out. Neither Gerry or I am concerned we are going to be bored.” The couple also know what The Herb Garden needs in a new owner. “What this place needs is someone who wants to continue the wedding business,” George said. “We already have a dozen or more weddings booked beyond 2018.” Gerry, who has been busy most of the morning showing a young couple the prop-

So, eight or nine years ago the couple renovated the large barn on the property (other out buildings on site had already been renovated). “Neil Hartwig, a great guy came in and did the support and floor,” George said. “Since then we’ve been booked almost every weekend for weddings.

People like making it very much their own wedding.” But George did eventually become involved in the wedding business. “Several years ago, I became a celebrant,” she said. “I now marry some couples here. It’s fun, it’s a lovely time.” George says that has been one of the highlights, of many, of owning The Herb Garden. FOR SALE

He talks about how Herbfest was nominated for one of the best volunteer organizations in the city, losing out only to volunteering legend Dave Smith. “We provided a venue for local businesses,” Gerry said. “It helped the community a lot and that’s kind of what we do here. We help kids with volunteer hours, but we’re not trying to teach them to be employees, we’re trying to teach them to be entrepreneurs. To us, that’s important and we’re going to miss that.” But Gerry is looking forward to returning his focus to painting. “It’s time we move on and let someone else take over, because this place is magical,” he said.

Carp Social KNITwork group yarn bombs - Canada style SPECIAL TO THE REVIEW
It’s an example of yarn bombing — Canada style. And it has been done to celebrate Canada’s 150th birthday. Starting in January, members of the Carp Social KNITwork group at the Carp branch of the Ottawa Public Library began knitting or crocheting projects using red or white yarn.
By the end of May, the group had assembled nearly 100 handmade items. Using clothespins, they then clipped their creations to the fence between the Carp library branch and the Diefenbunker Cold War Museum beside it to spell out CANADA 150. “We decided to keep it simple since nobody could spell Sesquicentennial," comments
Valerie Jorgensen who is the program facilitator for the Carp Social KNITwork group. After the items were displayed on the fence and a group photograph was taken, many of the items were then donated to local charity groups. The Carp Social KNITwork program provides an opportunity for knitting and crocheting enthusiasts to get together
every second Wednesday morning to chat, improve their skills, share patterns and techniques, have a cup of tea and, yes, knit. Attendance at the group is free and open to knitters of all
levels. There is no registration required. This Carp Social KNITwork group will be starting up again this fall at the Carp branch of the Ottawa Public Library.

How did the goat get on the roof?
E Jack MacLaren Member of Provincial Parliament Carleton-Mississippi Mills
Canada 150 We will soon celebrate the 150th anniversary of the foundation of the Dominion of Canada as a constitutional monarchy. Monarchy in Canada goes back even further to the founding of New France, more than 400 years ago. But our constitution is even older than that. All our rights and freedoms, as well as our duties and responsibilities, reach back 800 years to the signing of Magna Carta in 1215 – which is the foundation of every successful democracy in the Western world. We can be proud of the ancient rights and responsibilities of citizenship, together with the history, symbols, and institutions that give us our identity. But we must remember that freedom isn’t free. We must remember those who have fought for Canada both at home and abroad – whether in heated debates in Parliament or on the battle fields of Afghanistan, Juno Beach, or Vimy Ridge. So today let’s cherish our values and traditions while honouring our freedoms and responsibilities, and let’s keep building a better, stronger Canada!

velyn wasn’t the most popular girl at the Northcote School. She wasn’t unpopular, either. She was just there, minding her own business, doing exactly what Miss Crosby asked of her, and always had her homework done, and her desk drawer in perfect order. Evelyn wasn’t much of a talker, either. So, although we knew her family as neighbours, I knew little about what Evelyn did at home. Did she play with dolls? Did she have a pet cat, or a pet chicken like I did? I knew she worked hard at the farm, an only child with no brothers to help with chores. But, what Evelyn did at home for fun, I didn’t know — until the day I was invited to her farm on a warm Saturday to play. I was thrilled beyond words. Finally, I would find out what my schoolmate did when she wasn’t at school. Like our farm, there was a long lane off the Northcote Side Road, and Father took me over in the buggy and dropped me off at the gate leading into the barnyard. Mother sent some sticky buns, as was the custom then. When one visited for the first time, a jar of jam or some other little treat went with you. Evelyn was waiting for me at the gate, and she led me right to the kitchen to say hello to her mother and hand over the sticky buns. When we went outside, I was impressed to see that Evelyn had a playhouse, filled with a make-believe stove and real little table and chairs. This little playhouse was right outside the
MARY COOK Memories summer kitchen, and Evelyn said she often had her lunch out there, which to me was right up there with a trip to the movies on a Saturday night. Imagine, eating your lunch in your very own little playhouse. Then, Evelyn looked up at the summer kitchen roof, and in a voice that sounded as mad as a hatter’s, yelled at the top of her lungs, “Buster, you get off that roof this minute.” There, on the very top of the summer kitchen, was a goat — almost the size of a pony. It just glared down at Evelyn, stomped its front foot, and looked like it defied anyone brave enough to challenge it. How it got on the roof was beyond me. “You heard me, Buster. Get off the roof.” She grabbed a branch on the ground, which looked to me like it was always at hand to deal with the goat, which seemed to have a mind of its own. She swung the branch over her head in the air. “He’s already torn the shingles off one side of the house, and my father said if I couldn’t control him, he was going to sell him to the butcher in Renfrew.” Well, Buster either knew of the threat over his head or he didn’t trust Evelyn with the branch. He made one leap and landed on all fours in front of us. Then, he turned his back on Evelyn, made a snort and kicked her with his back feet, sending her sprawling — and then the chase was on.
The two of them tore around the barnyard like two maniacs in a race for survival. Every time Evelyn got near Buster, he raised his hind legs and defied her to come any closer. It was obvious this wasn’t the first time Buster and Evelyn met horns. Finally, Buster ran toward a back field, and Evelyn very carefully put the branch right back where it was when the fight began, ready for the next challenge with the goat. I asked Evelyn how Buster got onto the roof. She said she had no idea, and neither did anyone else. No one knew how he managed the leap, and she lost count of the times the goat did it. She thought he took a running leap when no one was around, and her father said the goat was too smart for its own good, and if one more shingle was ever seen on the ground, Buster would be taking the trip into Renfrew in the truck. During my short visit, I heard that Evelyn’s pet cat never left the barn since one day Buster kicked it about 10 feet into the air. I asked her if she considered Buster a pet. We were eating cookies in her playhouse. “I did when he was little. But, not anymore. And if he gives me one more kick like that last one, I’ll help Pop load him into the truck myself.” Interested in an electronic version of Mary’s books?

We are buying our first home. The bank insists that we add my father as a co-owner of the home in order to qualify for the mortgage amount we need. The entire down payment is coming from our savings and we will be making all the mortgage payments. I would rather not include my father as a co-owner. What are your suggestions? Guarantor of the mortgage v being registered on title as owner Adding a person that is not going to be living at the property as a co-owner is generally not recommended, unless you are buying an investment property. You should talk to your bank about whether it would be sufficient to have your father as a guarantor on the mortgage, rather than a co-owner. If the bank still insists on your father’s ownership, there are ways to structure the co-ownership in order to protect everyone’s interest and to minimize your father’s exposure to any tax related consequences of owning a second home.

Joint Tenancy v Tenancy in Common There are two ways to structure how two or more individuals can own a real property together. They can either own it as joint tenants or as tenants in common. The main difference between the two is that people who own a property as joint tenants have a right of survivorship, meaning that if either one of them dies, his or her ownership share passes

automatically to the other surviving joint tenant. This is in contrast with tenancy in common, which does not have a right of survivorship, meaning that the share of the deceased tenant in common becomes part of such person’s estate. With tenancy in common you can also specify a size of a share that each co-owner owns. For example, your father can own 1% share of the home and you and your spouse own the remaining 99% share, as tenants in common. This will ensure that your and your spouse’s share becomes part of your estate rather than being transferred to your father in case something happens to both you and your husband.

Serving Constituents of Kanata-Carleton
Member of Parliament Kanata-Carleton Eid
It was a great pleasure for me to join the Kanata Muslim Community at the Richcraft Centre to celebrate Eid al-Fitr, marking the end of Ramadan. I then joined the larger Ottawa Community at the EY Centre for morning prayers, along with my fellow Ottawa political colleagues. To everyone in our community, I wish everyone a Happy Eid Mubarak!
InBay Technologies
I was proud to be on-hand as the Parliamentary Secretary to the Minister of Public Services and Procurement, Steven MacKinnon, announced the Government of Canada will be investing in Kanata company InBay Technologies through the Build in Canada Innovation Program. The made-in-Canada innovation called idQ Trust as a Service enhances security and helps to relieve today’s password burden. This is another example of the outstanding talent we have right here in Kanata!
Canada Company
I had the privilege of speaking at the 10th annual Canada Company Scholarship Presentation Ceremony. Canada Company is a charitable, non-partisan organization that serves to build bridges between business, community leaders and the Canadian Military. Transitioning from military to civilian life can be difficult, but assistance through scholarships is a way to mitigate its challenges.

Citizenship Ceremony
I was honoured to attend a citizenship ceremony hosted by the Ottawa Senators, to welcome 150 new Canadian citizens to Canada. Along with Ottawa Senators President and CEO Tom Anselmi, it was a great pleasure to welcome hockey legend Ken Dryden to Kanata, who presided over the ceremony. It was wonderful to chat with such an enthusiastic group of people, who were so grateful to become Canadians.
Around the Community
More excellent events across the riding, I started the day with a visit to the Bridlewood Community Association Family Fun Day and BBQ. From there I went to see the final installation of the Canada 150 artwork entitled “Wisdom of the Trees”, created by Margit Hideg with workshop participants from local community groups and high tech companies. Thanks to those who work so hard to enhance our great communities!
Visiting US Delegation
Over the weekend I had the opportunity to give US Attorney General Jeff Sessions and Mrs. Sessions a tour of the War Museum and Parliament Hill. At the War Museum we were joined by distinguished historian Tim Cook and Director General Stephen Quick. They did an excellent job showcasing the many exhibits that highlight the sacrifices that the Canadian Armed Forces have made throughout our history. During the Parliament tour we showed the Attorney General and Mrs. Sessions both chambers of Parliament and the memorial chamber; they were both very engaged throughout the tour and very interested to learn more about our country.
Working for and Representing Kanata-Carleton
It is such an honour and privilege to serve as your Member of Parliament and I look forward to meeting and working with you all. Please feel free to contact our office at 613-592-3469 or by email at Karen.McCrimmon@parl.gc.ca. Please follow me on Facebook at karenmccrimmon.ca.

REPORT TO THE COMMUNITY 2017
Together,w e create a healthy com m unity. Community Impact Report Arnprior & Area Rural Eric Hanna, President and CEO Health Hub (AARHH) 20 1 6 - 2 0 1 7
We know that having access to local healthcare services saves our citizens from having to travel into the city. We also know it helps local industry attract a strong workforce, provides community infrastructure upon which others can build, and ultimately, a community where people want to live!
S
eventy-three years ago on June 9, 1944, the Arnprior and District Memorial Hospital was incorporated. Since that time, our organization has impacted the lives of thousands of people within our growing and aging community. Whether it was your first job at the hospital, your first emergency department visit, or perhaps you were born here… many of us remember the impact of that first time you knew of the hospital.
Today we are a very different organization as our services have evolved to meet the growing needs of our community; in fact, we are more than just a hospital. Our nursing home, the Grove, opened on October 9, 1981 first accepting residents transferred from a temporary 11-bed nursing home unit at the hospital. The Grove is now poised for expansion from 60 beds to 96. In addition to the traditional hospital and long-term care services, our organization now provides a comprehensive array of community services, which includes an adult day program and assisted living services. These changes in program growth and our relentless pursuit of quality care has helped us achieve our new vision – “Together, we create a healthy community”. 36 West Carleton Review - Thursday, July 6, 2017
More than 340 dedicated employees provide the outstanding care that our patients/ residents/clients receive. This year the staff at Arnprior Regional Health reported their overall engagement as being 73.2%, an increase of more than 20% from seven years ago. We know that engaged staff result in better clinical outcomes and higher levels of patient/resident/client satisfaction. Arnprior Regional Health could not be successful without the numerous partnerships we have built and the generosity of our many donors. Whether it is through the Patient Family Advisory Council, Rural Health Hub or Health Links we are proud to acknowledge the participation of volunteers, physicians, patients, clients, residents, and caregivers, as they are instrumental in ensuring we are responsive to the needs of our community. To continue to be successful we will increase the number of opportunities to engage our community. One example is the partnership with local seniors on the development of the Rural Seniors Health Care Village. This “village” will provide our senior population with the health services they need at the local level.
O
ur team at Arnprior Regional Health lives the values of Honesty, Accountability, Respect and Teamwork, and these values provide the foundation for all of us to foster a healthier community. Arnprior Regional Health embarked on this initiative due to its importance on many levels. The AARHH focuses on improving the experience of care for both the recipients and the providers; the population health status of the Arnprior area community; and improving the coordination of local services along the care continuum. Arnprior Regional Health is the lead for the AARHH; however, the approach has been the “Five Working as One”: • Arnprior Regional Health • Arnprior-Braeside-McNab Seniors at Home Program Inc. • Arnprior and District Family Health Team • Champlain Community Care Access Centre (CCAC) • Renfrew County and District Health Unit In addition, the “Five Working as One” relied on the expertise of two family physicians – Drs. Cynthia Morrison and Jonathan Fitzsimon – and two patients.
“Arnprior Regional Health could not be successful without the numerous partnerships we have built and the generosity of our many donors.” Dr. Cynthia Morrison
Dr. Jonathon Fitzsimon
Arnprior & Area Rural Health Hub (AARHH) cont’d “I participate in initiatives like the Health Hub because I really truly believe they can make a difference in the lives of my patients and I know that there really needs to be the voice of a family physician at the table.” Dr. Cynthia Morrison “The development of the Rural Health Hub has proved to be an excellent process of bringing together patients, health care providers and health administrators. We have carefully and systematically looked at and listened to different views on what our goals should be and the obstacles we face in achieving them in regard to the prevention, diagnosis and management of diabetes and COPD. There is no denying that it can be a challenge for a family physician to commit the significant amount of time required to a process like the Rural Health Hub, whilst continuing to care for patients in office and in hospital. However, I hope that our contribution will help to bring about improvements to patient care and clinical outcomes as we continue our mission to achieve excellence through working partnerships.” Dr. Jonathan Fitzsimon These five service providers have come together to conduct the investigation, planning and implementation of a rural health
hub that is focused on improving the patient experience and the health status of our community through an improved integrated health serves and experience models of collaboration. The two health issues that have been the focus of this partnership are Diabetes and Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD). Achievements reached during FY16-17: ü Establishment of an innovative co-design methodology for rural health system planning specific to chronic disease ü Review of best practices in rural and chronic disease models of care relevant to AARHH ü New linkages developed with external stakeholders in surrounding regions who have indicated willingness to support AARHH in the launch of their priority multi sector projects ü A comprehensive Action Planning Toolkit with priority selected change projects that inform a future care delivery and experience model Through each step of this initiative, the AARHH Steering Committee has been actively involved in leading, guiding and supporting this initiative. The Steering Committee has endorsed the work to date and confirmed their commitment and support for the next phase of this initiative, which will involve ownership by the region to begin planning and initiating and evaluating priority multi sector projects.
Technology and Your Health
T
his past year ARH made a change in heart monitoring technology. The first stage of heart evaluation is typically an electrocardiogram (ECG). This test captures the electrical activity of the heart over a short period. If the physician feels further investigation is required, they request a loop or Holter monitor.
ARH has replaced all loop monitors with 14-day Holter monitors. The reason we made these changes was for ease of use for our patients. The loop monitors required the patient to press a button any time they had symptom. This would record the data around that episode. The patient would then need to use a land telephone line to transmit the data from the device to the heart institute.
Celebrating their First Year Anniversary at ARH
L
ast summer two new family physicians joined the ARH team due to the recruiting efforts of The Arnprior Physician Recruitment Committee. Dr. Michael Fishman joined the Arnprior and District Family Health Team on August 1. Dr. Fishman has hospital privileges at in addition to Arnprior Regional Health, In hospital privileges at Arnprior Regional Health, he became the primary care physician for the majority of retiree Dr. Mark Robson’s family medicine practice. Dr. Shi also has hospital privileges at ARH where he provides inpatient care and anesthesia coverage. Dr. Shi also took on some of Dr. Robson’s practice as well as new patients. We asked them to reflect on their experience at ARH over the last year and this is what they told us. “What I’m really liking at ARH is the diversity of work I get to do. I get to see and develop relationships with my patients in my office and I also get to work in the operating room as an anesthesiologist. It really is the best of both worlds.” Dr. H. Shi “What has impressed me this past year is the level of collaboration between the physician group, nurses, allied health professionals and office staff. Everyone is working together to provide the best possible health care to this community. So many people have made me feel welcome and really made my first year at ARH a great one.” Dr. M. Fishman
RNPRIOR REGIONAL HEALTH
Since many people no longer have a land telephone line this created an access issue. In addition, data was only being recorded when the patient was awake and around when they had a symptom. This made the clinical decision of changing the technology to a 14-day continuous Holter monitor an easy one. Now our patients wear this devise as prescribed by their physician for 24 hours to 14 days. While the patient is wearing it, the devise continuously records their heart rhythm. All the information saves to a memory card and is then downloaded at ADMH and then sent to Queensway Carleton Hospital. Their cardiology department reviews the information and then prepares a report. The ordering physician with the patient then reviews this report.

“Focus groups and interviews with residents of the Grove nursing home and seniors and caregivers in the community were held. Listening to their stories helped us to understand the healthcare experiences of seniors, residents and caregivers.”
n keeping with the Champlain LHIN vision and mandate to integrate the health system at a local level, Arnprior Regional Health (The Grove) and Arnprior Braeside McNab Seniors at Home Program collaborated for the Meals on Wheels Program. Together we supply fresh daily Hot Meals to seniors 60 years of age or older, adults who are chronically ill, adults living with a disability, adults convalescing from surgery or illness, and adults undergoing medical treatments (no matter the age). Hot Meals on Wheels includes hot nutritious meals cooked fresh daily at The Grove and include: soup, crackers, hot main course, dinner roll and dessert. This past year 4495 meals were prepared and delivered.

or its winning entry – the “Personalized iPod Project” – The Grove partnered with Arnprior Public Library to raise $4,100 in order to provide each of The Grove’s residents with an iPod and a personalized music playlist. Residents use their personalized iPod to listen to their favourite music, which helps improve their behaviours and, ultimately, their care.
The Grove initially surveyed each resident to discover his or her music preferences. Then, the home turned its attention to promoting the fundraising campaign to the community. The Grove held a green-screen photo shoot with residents at the library to help with marketing. Once the campaign went public, the Arnprior community jumped on board. People began dropping off used iPods to the library. The Arnprior Rotarians donated $500. In addition, 38 West Carleton Review - Thursday, July 6, 2017
musician Craig Cardiff held a concert with half of the proceeds going to The Grove. By October 2016 – only six months after the idea was born – the fundraising goal was met, and each of The Grove’s 61 residents had a personalized iPod and playlist. Providing each resident with a personalized iPod has enhanced the resident experience and has raised awareness about the power of music in senior care. The program has now expanded to the community after library patrons began asking to borrow devices for family members with dementia living at home, in seniors’ residences, and other long-term care homes. “Through its Personalized iPod Project, The Grove has shown the Arnprior community how it is improving resident wellbeing and is advancing senior care,” says Catharine Gapp, AdvantAge Ontario CEO. “We are proud to recognize The Grove with this special award.”
facility to accommodate 96 residents. This includes re-purposing the facility to include seniors housing and community support services for the elderly. The goal is two-fold: to increase the capacity of the Grove nursing home and to develop a Seniors’ Village in our community to meet the growing needs of our senior’s population. Throughout the year, many meetings and conversations between Arnprior Regional Health and the Ministry of Health and Long Term Care have occurred to advocate for 36 additional licenses to kick-start the Grove Redevelopment. The Help The Grove Grow post card campaign has been successfully rolled out to show the community support for the need for 36 additional licenses to government representatives. We have collected almost 3000 post cards and the recently launched E-Petition totaled several hundred signatures to date (visit www.helpthegrovegrow.ca). Our advocacy efforts, for additional licenses, are being heard at Queens Park and we are hopeful that the government will make those licenses available to commence the Redevelopment of the Grove and Seniors’ Village in the very near future. Focus groups and interviews with residents of the Grove nursing home and seniors and caregivers in the community were held. Listening to their stories helped us to understand the healthcare experiences of seniors, residents and caregivers. Their input will assist us to map out what services are missing and how the Grove Redevelopment and Seniors’ Village. Participants of focus groups were very engaged and excited to be part of the process. “Thanks for listening. We are finally heard,” said one participant.
The Arnprior Regional & Ottawa West (AROW) Health Link
T
he AROW Health Link puts clients with the most complex needs at the center of care. It links clients and families with family doctors, specialists, and local healthcare and community service providers to work as a team. A dedicated care coordinator supports the creation of an integrated care plan based on the client’s goals. Arnprior Regional Health is proud to lead the Health Link. The AROW Health Link wraps care around the most vulnerable clients in our region to ensure they are receiving the care and support they need. Benefits include better, more coordinated care, reduced ER visits and hospital readmissions, and better transitions in care. The AROW Health Link brings together more than 30 local organizations and care providers who work together to support clients with complex needs. In addition, more than 40 volunteer client partners were recruited to serve as ambassadors for the program. In the past year, more than 185 clients have been supported through coordinated care plans. Five Health Link Service Level Agreements have been signed with local healthcare agencies to support this work. And three financial strategies are being implemented to ensure the sustainability of the program. The AROW Health Link has developed three neighbourhoods of activity to support improved coordination. Through a grant from the Ontario Centres of Excellence Health Technology Fund, an evaluation project will bring innovative tablet technology right into the client’s home. Clients can connect with their circle of care to allow for one-on-one and group video care conferencing.
Connecting with Local Community Services for Better Care
L
ocal health care partners are sharing information for better care, thanks to a new pilot project led by the Champlain Alliance of Small Hospitals (CAsH). Community support services say the enhanced communication will make a difference for clients in the region, as well as for their own staff and volunteers.
When a patient comes to the Emergency Department or is admitted to the hospital, care providers need vital information, including what care that patient may be receiving at home. Arnprior Regional Health (ARH) links with the Ontario Association of Community Care Access Centres (OACCAC) and the former Champlain Community Care Access Centre (CCAC)* to ensure that admission information is automatically shared between the hospital information system and the CCAC database. Now that dialogue is being extended to local health partners.
As part of the pilot project, the Arnprior Braeside-McNab Seniors at Home Program is also connected though the Champlain Community Support (CSS) system. The CCAC and CSS agencies are notified when a client is admitted to the Emergency Department. The hospital then receives notification if the client is currently receiving CCAC services. Finally, notification is sent to the CCAC when a patient is discharged, to ensure follow-up and the resumption of services. A similar process occurs with the Seniors at Home Program. “Health Quality Ontario has identified transitions in care as being a great opportunity to ensure an improved patient experience. This ‘e-connection’ with both the CCAC and Home Support will ultimately result in a better patient experience and potentially reduce readmissions to hospitals and shorten length of stay,” notes Eric Hanna, ARH CEO. “We are excited to be the first hospital to connect with a local community partner through the e-notification program.”
“We wanted to work with Arnprior Regional Health to use communication to better our services and this makes sense,” agrees Dennis Harrington, Executive Director of the Arnprior-Braeside-McNab Seniors at Home Program. “We are very pleased with the format and the timely arrival of information. And this will be beneficial to many more agencies in the future.” The new program offers many benefits. Emergency physicians are able to make care decisions with more information at hand. For example, a physician may be able to avoid admitting a patient or possibly discharge a patient earlier, knowing that there are CCAC or community supports in place at home. Likewise, the CCAC and local community agencies are now advised when clients have had a hospital visit, allowing them to plan their services more efficiently. Having this knowledge means that service providers are able to suspend or cancel services as required. They no longer arrive at a client’s door unaware of the change and wondering if something has happened. This is particularly useful for volunteer-driven organizations with limited resources. To date, Arnprior Regional Health, Kemptville District Hospital and Renfrew Victoria Hospital are on board with the e-notification program with the CCAC, with one local CSS agency connected so far. Plans are underway to add other agencies in the future. Currently, the majority of community support agencies are on the same client information system, which will make it easier to add them. Data is transferred in a secure format to protect patient privacy. ABOUT the Champlain Alliance of Small Hospitals (CAsH) This initiative is one of several IT integration projects led by the Champlain Alliance of Small Hospitals (CAsH). Enhanced integration will result in an improved patient experience, better care and cost effective service delivery. Our vision is to develop innovative rural health delivery options and to advocate for strengthened rural health. CAsH includes eight member hospitals: Almonte General Hospital, Arnprior Regional Health, Carleton Place & District Memorial Hospital, Deep River and District Hospital, Glengarry Memorial Hospital, Kemptville District Hospital, Renfrew Victoria Hospital and St. Francis Memorial Hospital. *Please note that the CCAC has since re-branded to Home and Community Care.

Smoking Cessation Partnership
ARH Auxiliary News
A
A
rnprior & District Memorial Hospital celebrated ten years of partnership with the Ottawa Heart Institute’s Ottawa Model for Smoking Cessation (OMSC). Since implementation of the OMSC at Arnprior & District Memorial Hospital, over 900 smokers have been reached through personalized, best practice tobacco dependence treatment, resulting in increased quit attempts and long-term cessation. An estimated 300 smokers are smoke-free because of the support they received while at Arnprior & District Memorial Hospital.
“The success behind the Ottawa Model for Smoking cessation is truly found in the determined teams across Canada, like here in Arnprior, that are providing personalized support to smokers who are trying to quit,” said Dr. Andrew Pipe, co-developer of the OMSC and Chief of the Division of Prevention and Rehabilitation at the University of Ottawa Heart Institute. “As all hospital grounds in Ontario will be required to be smoke-free by January 2018, helping patients deal with nicotine withdrawal when they are admitted and stay smoke-free when they leave will remain an important priority for hospitals in our region.”
nother busy and productive year has gone by for the ARH Auxiliary. The Opportunity Shop, In-Hospital, Sewing, Grove and HELPP volunteers all contributed to another successful volunteer year.
Congratulations to Ron Anglin who received the Provincial Life Membership Certificate for 2016. Two longtime volunteers retired this past year. We wish Dorothy Baird and Jean Wissing all the best. We said a tearful goodbye to Auxiliary Secretary Cheryl Sunter who passed away suddenly in December. A donation of $265,000 has been earmarked for ARH from the Auxiliary and this commitment will be paid in full by the end of 2017. The Auxiliary also awarded two bursaries of $1000 to two ADHS students for nursing and allied health. Congratulations to Delaney Hopper and John Russell. The Ice Cream Program continues to put smiles on the faces on patients and residents, this long-time partnership with Dairy Queen begins each year in May through to September. The sewing volunteers, in addition to regularly saving ARH thousands in repair work, made twelve dozen surgical caps for the operating room.
The Patient and Family Advisory Council’s Perspective
D
igital X-ray technology is now available at Arnprior Regional Health after a significant investment of community fundraising dollars through the ARH Foundation. This piece of equipment is specially designed for high volume environments and is equipped with robotics allowing the technologist to concentrate on the patient and the exam as opposed to moving the equipment around. With the digital technology, the images are very precise and are uploaded immediately to the hospital computer system for quicker viewing by the physician or radiologist. This machine reduces the procedure time by 25% while also reducing the radiation dose between 30 and 50%. A small team helped bring this technology to Arnprior from the maintenance department leading the renovation, the diagnostic imaging department through their work with the manufacturer, to the Patient and Family

Advisory Council (PFAC) for their feedback from the patient perspective. PFAC formed at the hospital in October 2012 based on the success of the Family Council at the Grove. Both groups are regularly consulted and feedback is both encouraged and welcomed in order to gain the perspectives of patients and residents. When it came time to renovate the X-ray room, the manager of diagnostic imaging requested the patient perspective from PFAC. A couple of members of the council took the time to think about the patient experience when having an X-ray. They chose soothing paint colours, selected lighting that could be dimmed, and easy to read directional signs. While these items may seem insignificant, they do impact the patient experience. Medical tests can be very stressful and putting the patient at ease is important to our health care professionals. We appreciate the perspective offered by PFAC.
In closing off a successful year with 16,221 volunteer hours and 157 active volunteers, I would also like to pay tribute to Gift Shop volunteer Willa Wright who at 92 years young takes a taxi so she can work her two shifts a week. This is true dedication. I would also to thank all the volunteers for the work that they do. Improving the lives of others is what this is all about, whether it is personal contact with patients and residents or raising funds to purchase equipment for Arnprior Regional Health.
Auxiliary members Josie Morrison, Teresa Thom, Sharon Brady, Ralph Mawdsley (RN at ARH), and Bernice O’Connor pose with one of the new bedside terminals. The Auxiliary helped to fund this project.

s part of the 2016 Budget, Ontario proposed a new investment of more than $345 million to all publicly funded hospitals, including a one per cent increase to base funding for small hospitals such as Arnprior Regional Health, to sustain patient access to high-quality health care services as close to home as possible. A few months later, another 1% increase was received to improve patient flow and allow us to meet seasonal surge and increased volume due to our aging and growing population. In addition to these government investments in our operations, further financial support for capital projects came through the Health Infrastructure Renewal Fund (HIRF). This fund supplements hospitals existing capital renewal programs and helps address large scale renewal needs (e.g., roofing systems, boilers, windows). ARH received a total of $1,692,998 from HIRF which was directed towards the modernization of our heating, ventilation and air conditioning systems.
Another significant investment by the Ministry of Health included a one-time capital grant of $1,793,600 towards the redevelopment of central sterilization and reprocessing (CSR). This is the area in the hospital where all surgical instruments are cleaned and sterilized. This funding represents 90% of the required funds for the project the balance of which must be funded locally. While the provincial government is an important source of funding, ARH also benefits from the support of the ARH Auxiliary and the ARH Foundation. The generosity of both of these organizations has enabled ARH to acquire new medical equipment and complete minor renovations. Arnprior Regional Health is humbled by the significant financial contributions made by the community during this past year. These contributions reflect the confidence our community places in us, along with the ongoing commitment to ensure our organization remains vibrant and is positioned to play a vital role in the delivery of healthcare services.

Survival is never guaranteed for turtle eggs BY MICHAEL RUNTZ
Last week’s column addressed the nesting behaviour of turtles. The greatest risk faced by female turtles is being run over when they cross roads. Each year a few despicable people deliberately run over turtles “just for kicks.” Once a turtle completes her task and safely returns to the water, she faces relatively few dangers. However, river otters are known in winter to eat dormant snapping turtles, and I once ob-
served an otter munching tiny painted turtles it retrieved from the bottom of a frozen pond. Still, most adults enjoy very long lives. For young turtles, however, life is full of dangers. Danger starts from the moment their soonto-be-absent mother deposits her eggs in the ground. A friend recently observed a common raven sitting behind a female snapping turtle and grabbing her eggs as they were being laid! A more bizarre fate befalls some eggs. A cer-
tain parasitic fly darts into the egg chamber before it is sealed and lays her egg on a turtle egg. The hatched grub devours the egg’s contents after chewing an entrance/exit hole through the shell. The adult fly that emerges from the empty egg escapes its underground tomb when nearby turtle hatchlings dig their way out of their tomb. But even if eggs remain unscathed after being buried in the ground, survival is never guaranteed. A number of animals including raccoons, striped skunks, eastern coyotes, and red foxes dig them up and devour entire clutches. As turtles have access to a limited number of egg laying sites, predators soon learn about them and each year up to 100 per cent of all nests are depredated. Most predation occurs at night but recently I observed a red fox in action in early morning. The fox was walking along the edge of Highway 60 in Algonquin Park. It was clearly on a mission, its nose held to the ground as it wandered along the roadsides. It crossed the highway several times, working the far shoulder as it had the opposite one. When it came to a cul-
vert it sniffed around its gravel borders for some time. Finding nothing of interest it crossed the road where almost immediately it stopped and began digging. The earth was flying as it frantically dug into the ground with both feet. After a little while it stuck its snout into the excavation and came up with an egg in its mouth. This it placed on the ground and licked out its contents. More digging and more eggs, until finally around ten had been retrieved. Two of these were carried away and hidden, likely to be eaten later. When turtle eggs in undetected nests hatch in the fall, the hatchling turtles run a gauntlet when they move to the water. Predatory mammals and birds pick them off on route, and once in the water, many fall pretty to large snapping turtles and fish. Of all the eggs laid in spring, very few produce adult turtles. Which is likely a good thing, for if all of the thousands of eggs laid each year produced adult turtles, we would soon be experiencing severe shell-shock! The nature email is mruntz@start.ca.
