A tractor-trailer carrying a load of hay caught fire early Monday morning on Highway 417 near Kinburn. At roughly 8:30 a.m., a fire started in the cab of a fully loaded tractortrailer on Highway 417, just east of the Kinburn off-ramp. Firefighters from Kinburn (Station 61), Dunrobin (Station 66) and Carp (Station 64) responded and had the fire extinguished 45 minutes later at 9:15 a.m. according to Ottawa Fire Services District 6 Sector Chief Jim Andrews. Two pumpers and two tankers were also on hand. There were no injuries or damage to the road surface. “When I arrived on scene the owner had already been working on arranging to separate the cab from the load,” Andrews said. The highway was completely reopened around 2 p.m. “Everything was scooped up and transported to a spot where it could be safely disposed of,” Andrews said. Despite the spectacular photos, Andrews said the fire was easily manageable by trained professionals.

WC residents struggling to get good high speed internet service BY JAKE DAVIES

jake.davies@metroland.com

High speed internet is a basic service in Ontario, but not an easily accessible service in West Carleton. Whether its high cost or poor coverage, West Carleton is not reaping the benefits of the Canadian Radio and Telecommunications Commission’s (CRTC) declaration last December high speed internet is a ‘basic service,’ says Fitzroy Harbour area resident Ken Holmes. The CRTC ruled broadband Internet with download speeds of at least 50 megabits per second and upload speeds of at least 10 Mbps will now be considered a “basic telecom

service.” When the CRTC made the announcement in 2016 it was thought the decision would pave the way for universal access to high-speed service in remote and rural areas. CRTC Chair Jean-Pierre Blais said “the future of our economy, our prosperity and our society – indeed, the future of every citizen – requires us to set ambitious goals, and to get on with connecting all Canadians for the 21st century.” Before the declaration, the only other service deemed basic or essential by the CRTC was local landline telephone service. Accompanying the declaration, the national regulator ordered the country’s internet providers to begin working toward boost-

Ken Holmes ing internet service and speeds in rural and isolated areas. Holmes says he hasn’t seen much improvement in the area, much less a plan for improvement. Holmes is a retired senior

military engineer formerly with the Canadian Armed Forces. He is an author of several military and history books. He is actively involved in municipal affairs in Ottawa and has worked with several councillors and citizens’ advocacy groups including the Community Budget Advisory Team, the Rural Summits, the annual budget process, the Mayor’s Seniors Round Table and the Western Ottawa Community Resource Centre’s initiatives on improving support to rural seniors. Holmes is a volunteer with several community groups. “One of my concerns with the CRTC’s decision is it might promote procrastination amongst those who are already doing things on the issue,” Holmes told the West Carleton Review on Thursday, Aug. 10. Holmes says rural highspeed internet service has been one of his pet issues over the last several years. He says 10 years ago, about 20 per cent of West Carleton residents had high-speed internet service. That number has grown to 80 per cent in 2017, but much of that high-speed service is less than five megabytes per second. “The good news is our MP

(Karen McCrimmon) has been doing stuff on this,” Holmes said. “She’s been talking to internet providers.” Holmes says the City of Ottawa invested $750,000,10 years ago as part of a public-private partnership with Xplornet, but he is still waiting for an outcome from that initiative. “That’s a significant contribution and I applaud them for doing that,” he said. “But I want to see the results. I asked specifically, but they don’t appear to collect that data. The city is not good at collecting performance data.” While many would not think of West Carleton as remote, it is definitely rural and definitely has issues when trying to establish consistent, reliable highspeed internet service. Holmes says he has heard Xplornet, which is the largest provider in the area, is not working well. Line of site is needed to provide the service, and that is difficult in West Carleton with all the low-lying areas, trees and lack of towers. Recent stats claim 95 per cent of the area can access high-speed internet, but the quality is poor. “It’s better than it was 10

years ago,” Holmes said. “Some of that service is only by satellite, which is fairly expensive. Some have to use cell service. There’s little value to the CRTC’s statement. What they are saying to the industry is if someone buys a package at the basic level, high-speed must be part of the package. Nowhere does it state what that package may cost. “It’s a valid concern. The first questions subscribers and taxpayers have is, ‘what’s it going to cost me?’” While Ontario committed $180 million to bring highspeed internet to more than 300 communities in southwestern Ontario last July, no such commitment by the province has been made for this area. “What about the rest of the province?” Holmes asks. “What we need to know is what the plan is. There has not been any indication that I have found, of a master plan, which is a significant failure. You don’t earmark money for one part of the province without explaining what will happen with the rest of the underserved province.

Holmes says government needs to share plan for process Continued from page 2

“When they accepted that responsibility, they accepted the responsibility for the rest of Ontario. We need to know what the plan is.” Holmes was pleased with the city’s contribution, but does not feel providing improved internet service is really a city responsibility. “But they should be advocating. Why isn’t the rural affairs committee talking about this?” Holmes said. “The city is very quick to say it embraces hi-tech but I say, show me the beef. “City senior support leaders are talking up all these online technologies available to assist seniors and to make life easier. There’s no point if

there is no high speed access.” Holmes own research tells him there are technologies being developed that may help rural areas. “Microsoft is looking in to providing service to rural areas,” he said. “I think they are investing around $1 billion so it’s a concerted effort. They are looking at using unused television bands which are more reliable and don’t need line of sight.” Holmes says the rural community needs to see some light at the end of the internet tunnel. He says West Carleton’s only public library in Carp has some of the worst internet service in the area. “Something needs to start moving and it needs to be seen to start mov-

ing,” Holmes said. “The CRTC’s decision needs to start to be reflected in the planning. “Somebody has to say something about how we’re going to do it, what the priorities are and what the timeline is going to be. I want a plan.” While Holmes waits to see some action from at least one of the levels of

government, he says there’s something the community can do to draw attention to the issue. Holmes would like residents to log on to the Canadian Internet Registration Authority (CIRA) website (www. cira.ca) and test your internet performance and register that outcome. CIRA is working to document ser-

vice performance in Canada. “The decision makers will see and be able to compare the red dots we have in West Carleton with all the beautiful white dots urban and suburban Ottawa has,” Holmes said. “That, in combination with politely expressing your concern and issues related to service to your MP and MPP.”

Holmes hopes more West Carleton residents will register their internet speeds with the Canadian Internet Registration Authority, the organization that developed the above chart, to help raise awareness on the need for improved high speed internet service in the area.

The West Carleton Electric squirts won silver at the provincial championship held Aug. 12 and 13. Top row, from left, are Jack Armstrong, Conner Hooper, Adam Brown, Blair Armstrong and Sean LeCuyer. In the middle row are William Potten, Jack Barr, Hunter Coady, Will Herrick, Josh Langford and Blake Bramburger. In the bottome row are Colton LeCuyer, Hayden Bobby Khan, Taelyn LeCuyer and Gabe Brown. 10-0 win over the Oshawa BBs. Will Herrick had the complete game shut out pitching for the Electric. The Electric went on to win their third game of the day, 7-4 over the Westport Storm with Gabe Brown on the mound. Jack Armstrong hit a based loaded triple during the game.

The win Saturday evening set up a rematch against the Twins on Day 2. This time the Electric came out on top with a 12-10 win. “It was an exciting back and forth game,” Brown said. “We were down 3-0, came back to go ahead 5-3, then the Twins had a big inning to go ahead

9-5, but then the Electric responded to go ahead 12-9.” West Carleton won their second game, 6-5 versus the Baden Pirates. “We did things the hard way ending up down 4-1,” Brown said. “But we clawed back to get a 6-4 lead and held on. Conner Hopper did an excellent job catching and was solid at the plate. Hunter Coady made an amazing scoop at first on a low throw which saved two runs.” The team had to bring in mites affiliate Colton Lecuyer to help out the team after an injury. During the final, the Electric lost 17-6 to the Tavistock Athletics. “The Electric were playing their third game in a row and ran out of gas against a well-rested and undefeated Tavistock team.” But overall, coach Brown was proud of the job his team did during the provincial tournament. “The kids showed great resilience on coming up the back side of the tournament after losing the first game and winning four straight,” Brown said. “We just ran out of gas in the final. The coaching staff is very proud of the team.”

Redblacks rookies want young Wolverines to know football is fun Continued from page 6

Redblack rookie wide receiver Austen Hartley and offensive lineman Evan Johnson were on hand to share their knowledge and love of the game. It feels pretty good,” said 21-year-old Hartley who has appeared in five games this season. “When you are younger, you kind of take it for granted, but this is when you learn everything. It’s kind of a good flashback.” Hartley tells the young players he came late to the game, not strapping on the pads until Grade 9. Hartley attended the University of Calgary and played for the Dinos. Hartley was selected by the Redblacks in the fifth round of the 2017 CFL draft. Johnson has a similar story. Despite playing many other sports, the 6’4”, 280-pound Johnson didn’t start playing football until he was 14. The Regina born Johnson attended the University of Saskatchewan before being the Redblacks first pick, ninth overall, in the 2017 draft. Johnson has appeared in seven games for the Redblacks this year. During a break in Wolverine drills, Johnson says he has one message for Jake Davies/Metroland the young football players.

A tarmac travesty T

ake 300-plus people, stick them in a tube for seven hours, turn up the temperature and then keep them confined for another six hours. It’s a recipe for unhappy customers. An Air Transat flight stuck on Ottawa airport’s tarmac for six hours on a steamy July 31 was a travelling travesty. The plane was diverted to Ottawa from Montreal due to storms. There was a stormy atmosphere inside the plane too after passengers waited and waited to take off for Montreal. It’s not entirely clear what caused the lack of service to the plane – fuel and water. The airline – which has received a serious black eye from all the horror stories shared by passengers – and the airport have traded accusations about what services were offered to the Air Transat flight, and what services were declined. All we can be sure of is that a seven-hour flight ended up being about double that time, and that the stay in Ottawa was brutal due to lack of air conditioning on a hot day.

Hopefully a Canadian Transportation Agency investigation will get to the bottom of it. It shouldn’t have happened but it did. But job one is to make sure it doesn’t happen again. In May, the federal government introduced legislation to create a passenger bill of rights. The goal is to make sure travellers know the service levels to which they are entitled, and provide compensation if travel arrangements are disrupted by events within the airline’s control. It’s a fair request of air carriers. In fact, common sense says Canadian travellers should have been protected by such measures a generation ago. Maybe it’s a sign of poor quality across the board that Canadians need to spell out such minimums of service in a federal law. A new passenger bill of rights should be passed quickly and it should be enforced. Every political party should be on board with better protections for captive airline passengers.

Football is not the leader in concussion stats

n a recent column for the American Press, author Paul Newberry predicted the demise of American football. His argument centred on concussion statistics, citing a University of Boston study that found of 202 former professional football players, nearly all had a brain disease resulting from blows to the head. It’s a neatly, cherry-picked stat that Newberry uses to make football out to be a “gladiatorial sport”, which he argues has no place in modern society. Three years ago, my eldest started playing football. I was pretty uncomfortable with the idea. Watching a bunch of seven-to-10-year-olds engage in this wild and violent behaviour often left me feeling nervous. Relatives have frequently questioned why I allow my son to continue in such a violent sport.

But is football the most dangerous sport in America, as Newberry would like us to believe? The short answer is no. In 2015, the British Journal of Sports Medicine published a study Capital Muse examining concussion risk among athletes per 1,000 minutes of athletic exposure (AE). The research included At the same time, I watched my son a review of 23 international studies on thrive in team sport for the first time, concussions in sports.

Family history presentations at St. John’s in Antrim SPECIAL TO THE REVIEW

Antrim’s St. John’s Anglican Church, an historical spot in its own right, will be the site of two family history presentations on Sunday, Aug. 27 at its 10:30 a.m. service. Those in attendance will hear the history of the Armstrong family which hails from Fermanagh in Northern Ireland and also of the Hudson family from Leeds County,

Yorkshire, England. The presentation will be paying tribute to the ancestors of these two families and will be celebrating their heritage. Everyone is welcome to attend this family history presentation service. Following the service, there will be a time of fellowship and refreshments available. St. John’s Anglican Church at 3751

Kinburn Side Road at Antrim has a history itself which dates back to about 1869 when services were held in a local school house. In 1873, St. John’s Church was built on land that was donated. It was in 1888 that Bishop J. Travers Lewis consecrated the church. The interior of the church was renovated in the 1917-1918 period and then was completely redecorated in 1961. In 1976, extensive renovations took

place on the church, with new flooring, a replaced foundation and rewiring of the building. Much of this happened with volunteer labour by members of the congregation. One of the features of the church is its “Good Shepherd Window” which was dedicated in 1893. It was made possible thanks to funds raised by the children of the church’s Sunday school. In 1902, the congregations of the Antrim and Galetta Anglican church-

es became the Mission of Antrim. In 1969, St. John’s became part of the Parish of Pakenham along with St. Mark’s in Pakenham, St. George’s in Waba and St. Augustine’s in Galetta. This four-point charge became a three-point charge when St. Augustine’s Church in Galetta ceased in 1992. St. John’s Anglican Church at Antrim celebrated its centennial in 1973 and then marked its 125th anniversary in 1998.

The first Terry Fox Run happened in 1981 to raise funds for cancer research. Since that time, over $700 million has been raised, with Terry Fox runs happening all around the world. The Terry Fox Foundation was founded in 1988. Terry Fox runs are volunteer-led noncompetitive events. They have become the world’s largest one-day fundraiser for cancer research. Terry Fox, who had one leg amputated due to cancer, embarked on his Marathon of Hope cross-Canada run in 1980 to raise money and awareness for cancer research.

Member of Parliament Kanata-Carleton National Peacekeeper Day August 9th was a day to recognize the Canadian men and women who have served in peacekeeping and peacemaking operations. National Peacekeeper Day allows us to reflect on the ongoing leadership and resilience that the men and women of the Canadian Armed Forces display overseas in UN, NATO, and other multinational task forces. We can all take a moment to think of the Peacekeepers who have sacrificed so much throughout the years, and the families who supported them. International Day of the World’s Indigenous Peoples International Day of the World’s Indigenous Peoples is recognized on August 9th as well. This year marks the 10th anniversary of the UN Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples and offers our Government an opportunity to reaffirm our support for Canadian Indigenous Peoples. While we continue to work collaboratively with various groups from across the country, there is still work to be done. We are working hard on issues of reconciliation to ensure that Indigenous cultures and peoples are respected and protected. Jami Omar Mosque Visit I was happy to visit my friends at Jami Omar Mosque, who were as kind and welcoming as always. It is great to connect with community groups to share in their local initiatives. Jami Omar Mosque continues to do great work serving the West End of Ottawa and I always enjoy visiting their facilities. Drive-in Bingo at the Carp Fairgrounds I had a great time at Carp Drive-In Bingo with Carp Fair President Dan Lord and a wonderful group of volunteers. BBQs and Bingo make for a perfect summer evening! Thank you to everyone who helped out for all of your hard work and to all volunteers in Kanata-Carleton. Food Policy Online Survey There is still time to have your say in Canada’s upcoming Food Policy. I am looking for individuals to share their priorities and get their perspective on what areas the government should focus on when creating the new food policy. The survey feedback will be an important component of policy discussions and will be shared directly with Minister MacAulay. Visit http://KarenMcCrimmonMP.ca/ food/ before September 18th to find out more and to have your say.

Chiropractor Dr. Stephanie Deschenes locates in West Carleton BY JOHN CURRY john.curry@metroland.com

West Carleton has a new chiropractor. Dr. Stephanie Deschenes has set up her practice at Dunrobin Family Chiropractic, joining established chiropractor Dr. Kelly Graham at that location. The two practices are separate but now the location is able to offer more hours, enhancing the service available to West Carleton residents. The Dunrobin Family Chiropractic is located at the plaza at Dunrobin, right next to the Canada Post office. Dr. Deschenes decided to establish her practice in West Carleton because she loves being able to build relationships with people and help them in any way that she can. She feels that smaller communities like West Carleton value

such relationships which is why she has decided to have her practice in West Carleton. She particularly likes to provide chiropractic care for pregnant moms and babies. Her interests and expertise also extend to young families and athletes, although she wants to help people of all ages be as healthy as possible by ensuring that the nervous system is operating as optimally as possible. She particularly believes that it is important to ensure that kids be exposed to chiropractic to ensure they can be as healthy as possible. Dr. Deschenes graduated as a chiropractor in 2014. As a youth, she had wanted to become a medical doctor and, indeed, she worked as a medical assistant while in college. However, she found that she did not particularly like it. Her mother had received chiropractic care and so did she as a baby and when in high school due to her involvement in sports. In addition, a chiropractor was a neighbour. She ended up shadowing her as she was working which helped her decide to become a chiropractor and helping people attain a healthy lifestyle. After graduating, Dr. Deschenes initially helped at a chiropractic practice in Gatineau where a chiropractor was on maternity leave. For the past two years, she worked at the Wellness Group in Kanata. And now she has started her own practice in Dunrobin. The Dunrobin Family Chiropractic is now open every day of the week thanks to the two chiropractors being on site. Previously the office was closed one day a week. Dr. Deschenes is anxious to provide education about health to West Carleton residents, helping them become as healthy as possible. She eventually hopes to purchase a home in the area as she finds the community very friendly. She herself loves the outdoors. She frequently hikes in Gatineau Park and in the summer plays beach volleyball. She continues to play volleyball indoors in the winter. She also trains almost daily include crossfit, yoga and strength training. Dr. Deschenes also has another passion. “I love cooking,” she says, noting that she particularly likes creating desserts, although she does not eat a lot of them. “I love to try new things,” she says about her

cooking, saying that she likes to try different flavours and spices in her cooking. Dr. Deschenes has been involved with the GR Stittsville Solutions Group, a networking group that she learned about from a friend, Susan Bird of Stittsville. She attended an initial meeting and loved it, finding it to be a fun and dynamic group. She finds that in the group, she is able to get advice from experienced people in various walks of life. Dr. Deschenes, in fact, is now president of the group which she says is just like a family to her now. She says that she has received a lot of good tips from members of the group which draws members from Kanata, Carp and Stittsville. She took a business class in university to learn how to run a business but her GR Stittsville Solutions Group has provided lots of free advice about the challenges of running a busiJohn Curry/Metroland ness, which is helping her in running her own Dr. Stephanie Deschenes has established chiropractic practice.

Can music help in studying? Do you usually listen to music while you study? If so,

you’ll be pleased to learn that it’s actually a healthy habit that may help improve concentration and lead to better grades. However, this doesn’t mean you should listen to whatever you want, whenever you want. Most specialists recommend listening to soothing instrumental music for increased learning. Classical music is particularly effective at creating a study environment for tasks that involve logic, planning and critical thinking; Mozart’s famed piano concertos and Beethoven’s Für Elise, for instance, are excellent choices for revising mathematical equations. The same goes for the baroque sounds of Vivaldi or Pachelbel, which are also known to help students achieve the mindset needed for scientific thought. In contrast, when it’s time to express your artistic side, jazz and rock music might help get your creative juices flowing. For those who are studying literature, a new language or social sciences, pop music works like a charm. Finally, if you’re feeling unmotivated or have a short attention span, take a quick break every once in a while and gather your thoughts to a disco, reggae or country rhythm. Some studies suggest that listening to music is beneficial for relaxation, learning and memory. But music is a subjective art whose effects aren’t universal.

Eating well, exercising often and getting enough sleep are healthy lifestyle habits that help youngsters achieve greater academic success.

Walking to school is great for exercise but must be safe Walking to and from school is an excellent way for your child to get their daily dose of exercise. But to ensure they arrive at their final destination safe and sound, it’s important they abide by certain safety rules at all times! Start by identifying the safest route and locate danger zones — like railroads or busy streets — along the way. Make sure the route follows school-approved walkways and intersections with a crossing guard on duty. Once established, travel the planned route with your child a few

times before school starts, emphasizing the following safety guidelines along the way: • Always walk on the sidewalk (or, in the absence of one, stick to the outside of the left lane, facing traffic). • Cross the street at supervised intersections. If you arrive at a pedestrian crossing that doesn’t have a crossing guard on duty, always look to your left, then to

your right, and then to your left again before moving forward. • Always adhere to the traffic signals and pedestrian lights. • Don’t stray from the approved route or dilly-dally along the way. • Never get into a stranger’s vehicle. If possible, encourage your child to always walk with a friend — provided, of

course, that this friend also keeps safety in mind! Finally, prompt your child to leave early to avoid having to run (and risk getting hurt!) to make it to school on time. Does the thought of your child travelling alone make you nervous beyond belief ? Don’t hesitate to accompany them or meet them after school until you both feel more comfortable with the situation.

Daniel Jedzura

Identify the safest route to school and try it out several times with your child before letting them undertake the journey alone.

Too many activities is not good Parents always want the best for their children. But sometimes we do too much for them, such as enrolling them in too many extra-curricular activities. When we do that, we deprive them of the creativity that comes from free time and the relationship building that comes from just being together. It’s normal to want children to nurture a passion outside the classroom, and to learn self-discipline and focus; those are all good reasons to sign them up for classes in riding, karate, or guitar. Getting them involved in more than a couple of activities per week, however, can become a source of tension and stress in the home. Beyond logistical and time demands, it can also seriously cut into relaxed family time and edge out creative play. It causes stress in children when their activities become oriented towards performance and achievement. It’s important to leave room for unstructured play that is unsupervised by adults. It might mean a shift of perspective for many, but “free” play is not a waste of time. On the contrary, it can help children learn to manage their time according to their own rules and to develop their creativity. On the afternoons and evenings when no extracurricular sports or artistic activities are on the menu, family meals can regain their rightful place in the schedule. It is Jupiterimages the perfect time to gather, share the highlights of the day, and build the loving relationships that are so beneficial to A good balance between school, our children. A balance between school, family life, sched- family life, scheduled activities, and free time is essential. uled activities, and free time is essential.

This is the second of two public lectures presented at the Pinheyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Point Historic Site this summer. The first one was presented on Monday, July 17 when Dr. Melanie MorinPelletier, an historian on war and society for the Canadian War Museum, talked about the Vimy Ridge battle of the First World War and how and why Canadians commemorate the battle. These two lectures are but two of the summer 2017 events and activities planned by the Pinheyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Point Foundation of the Pinheyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Point Historic Site. Three exhibits are being held at the Pinheyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Point Historic Site this summer. One is about the origins and significance of domestic Gothic architecture in Ottawa. This exhibit runs through to Oct. 8. This revolutionary residential Gothic architecture helped transform Ottawa from a rough lumber town into a city that had the status of the capital of Canada. Another exhibit this summer, which is running from Aug. 1 to Oct. 8, entitled â&#x20AC;&#x153;Pinheyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Point meets the Sixties,â&#x20AC;? tells the story of the purchase of the Pinhey property by the National Capital Commission in 1959. There were plans for a restoration for Canadaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Centennial in 1967, along with a planned steamboat to Aylmer. The exhibit

Architect Malcolm Wildeboer will be the guest speaker at a lecture at the Pinheyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Point Historic Site. explains what happened and what did not happen. Yet another exhibit at the Pinheyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Point Historic Site which is on display until Oct. 8 tells about the efforts of a Pinhey sister to try to learn the fate of her brother whose name is on the Vimy Memorial as one of the 11,285 Canadian soldiers missing in action in France. The exhibit also tells about the visit of another Pinhey family member who visited the Vimy Memorial as a student pilgrim in 1936. The Pinheyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Point Historic Site has three travelling exhibits this year. One entitled â&#x20AC;&#x153;Meet the Gentry

THE

and Whose Astrolabe?â&#x20AC;? happened at Algonquin College in June while another â&#x20AC;&#x153;Meet the Gentryâ&#x20AC;? was at the Dunrobin Community Associationâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Canada Day event on July 1. The third exhibit, entitled â&#x20AC;&#x153;The Pinhey Family at War 1914-1918,â&#x20AC;? will be on display at the new St. Maryâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Anglican Church on Sixth Line Road on Nov. 12. In addition, the Pinheyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Point Historic Site is hosting a city of Ottawa travelling exhibit entitled â&#x20AC;&#x153;Through the Eyes of the Community: 150 Years of Ottawaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s History,â&#x20AC;? which is a telling of Ottawaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s story since Confederation through the eyes of various people. This includes a child (May 14-June 11), a new immigrant (June 14-July 9), a farmer (July 12-Aug. 6), a woman (Aug. 9-Sept. 3) and a veteran (Sept. 6-Ocft. 1). The city of Ottawa provides financial assistance to the Pinheyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Point Foundation. The city also owns and operates the Pinheyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Point Historic Site, with the support of the Pinheyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Point Foundation and its volunteers. The Pinheyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Point Historic Site at 270 Pinheyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Point Road, RR1, Dunrobin, ON can be found by exiting from the Queensway at March Road and following the signs.

New Plymouth like a member of the family

t wasn’t a secret for long ... even if it was meant to be. But no one got a brand-new car without the news spreading pretty fast. Being next farm to Uncle Alec’s though, meant that we got a look at the new Plymouth before anyone else at Northcote. And what a beauty it was. Certainly many steps up from the old Model T with the hole in the back floor, and the two front fenders different colours, which we got in a trade. I was just as excited as was my little friend Velma when the new car came into her family. My sister Audrey wondered where the money came from. Did Uncle Alec sell off his herd of cattle, or his workhorses? No, he didn’t. The cows and the horses were right there in the barnyard. Uncle Alec, the good neighbour that he was, was more than generous letting us all have a ride in the new Plymouth, taking Mother to Briscoe’s General Store, and our family taking turns, and once driving Velma and me all the way to Douglas. He was pretty fussy about his new car too. None of his sons were allowed behind the steering wheel, even though they were old enough to drive. Even when they were courting, they had to take the horse and buggy, just like every other young fella in Northcote, who wasn’t lucky enough to have a new Plymouth sitting in his yard. My friend Velma said her father could often be seen wiping the shiny fenders with his handkerchief, and when it rained, he covered it with a canvas to keep it dry. Yes, he was pretty fussy ... at least at the start of ownership. But like all things bought for use on the

MARY COOK Memories None of his sons were allowed behind the steering wheel, even though they were old enough to drive farm back then, the time would come when it would have to be put into other service. It wasn’t that the thrill of a new car had worn off. Certainly not! It was still the nicest car to be parked at the Lutheran Church on Sundays. Ralph, one of the older boys, was eventually allowed to get behind the wheel, but only after Uncle Alec let him run it around the 20-acre field a good many times. I was always amazed that Aunt Bertha never learned to drive the new car. Certainly, we didn’t have the old Model T more than a day or so, before Mother got behind the wheel, drove out the long lane, and headed all the way into Renfrew. But not Aunt Bertha. She left the driving to Uncle Alec. Well, as the novelty of the new car wore off, and it was commonplace to see it parked in the rain, and the Thom boys, one by one, were allowed to get behind the wheel, you could see that Uncle Alec would be putting the Plymouth to other uses, to get the full value out of the dollars he spent on it. No longer did we have to take our shoes off when we got in the Plymouth, and it wasn’t unusual to see Uncle Alec unload a few bags of wheat from the grist mill. But I knew the new car had lost its glory when I was over playing with Velma one Saturday, and Uncle Alec

had parked the car close to the barn. When he wheeled the car over to the house to tell Aunt Bertha he’d be back in time for supper, a Holstein calf had its head out one back window, and a sheep out the other. Uncle Alec headed into Renfrew to market the two, and the fastest way to get there was in the Plymouth that only a scant few months before was treated like a member of the family.

Secret geocaches at Diefenbunker SPECIAL TO THE REVIEW

John Curry/Metroland

At the presentation of the championship LMR Invitational Trophy for high three game winner in the LMR Invitational Tournament hosted by the Goulbourn Lawn Bowling Club on Aug. 10 are (from left) Barbara Nicholls, a partner with Low Murchison Radnoff LLP (LMR), winning team members Rico Silvestro, Flo Barclay and David Goff of Galetta Bowls and city of Ottawa Rideau-Goulbourn ward councillor Scott Moffatt.

All through August at the Diefenbunker, as part of Archeology Month, top secret geocaches will be placed on the grounds above the Diefenbunker, ready to be found by geocaching enthusiasts. A murder mystery fundraiser is being held on Saturday, Aug. 26 at 6:30 p.m. at the Diefenbunker. And the title? None other than Murder at the Diefenbunker. This will be a night of murder, scandal and intrigue, set at the height of the Cold War where you are inside the Diefenbunker. Someone is mysteriously murdered and a search over two levels of the bunker is launched to discover who did it, why

and how. Cost for this murder mystery fundraiser is $40 per person. The Diefenbunker is a four-storey, 100,000-square-foot underground bunker built between 1959 and 1961. During the Cold War, it was intended to house 535 Canadian government officials and military officers in the event of a nuclear war. It served as Canadian Forces Station Carp until 1994. Today, the Diefenbunker operates as a not-for-profit charitable museum, offering tours and programs. The Diefenbunker is open from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. daily. Adults cost $14 plus HST while seniors are $13 plus HST.

Member of Provincial Parliament Carleton-Mississippi Mills

One Government Cash Grab After Another This spring the Ontario Legislature passed Bill 65, it is another example of Liberals digging deeper into the pockets of Ontarians. It amended the Highway Traffic Act and other acts to expand the power of municipalities to use photo radar in areas where the speed limit is below 80 km/h. This may sound well and good, but we have had serious problems with this technology in the past. And the Liberals are ignoring two other factors. Firstly, cameras such as these have, in certain studies, been found to hamper not improve safety on roads. And secondly, as the OPP will tell you, speeding is not a major problem, distracted driving is what causes most accidents and deaths on Ontario roads. This bill did nothing to address these issues, and that is why I am proud to say I was the only MPP to vote against Bill 65.

The only problem is that Fergus hates his horse halter-type Halti

rain up a child in the way he should go, and when he is old he will not depart from it. ~ Proverbs 22:6, NKJV. It’s more than just a bible verse, and I am hoping it applies to puppies as well as to children. We had a large, rather untrainable dog before that, although lovable, was a going concern. If let outside without a lead, Cody would dash off to parts unknown. We are hoping that Fergus’ electronic collar is effectively teaching him his boundaries so that he won’t run away if left untended. The funny thing is, we never had to use these techniques with our dogs when I was growing up. We just told them to stay and they stayed. We never had one injured on the road, and none of them ran away. They visited the neighbours occasionally, sure. But they always came home. Cody was terrible at walking on the leash. He would pull me so hard that

he would choke himself and have to stop to catch his breath. I tried stopping and rewarding him with treats, along with a number of different commands to get him to stop pulling, but it never worked. I felt it would be unfair to introduce a choke collar at his advanced age, so I just put up with his shenanigans. It took all my strength to hold onto the leash. It was quite a workout. I couldn’t walk Cody much during the winter, because more than once when he tugged me along the ice I lost my footing and landed on my face, in the middle of the road. Fergus is getting big, strong and brave and he too loves to pull on his leash. It’s time to nip this situation in the proverbial bud. I have been doing my research online and in the dog-owning community and I think I have a solution. It’s called the Halti. Basi-

DIANA FISHER The Accidental Farmwife

cally it’s shaped much like a horse halter, with which I am very familiar. You slip one loop up over his ears and the other around his muzzle. The lead attaches to a ring under his chin. If he pulls on the lead, it tightens the loop around his muzzle, which makes him slow down. I’ve seen the Halti in action and it basically turns a wild, humantugging, zigzagging beast into a wellbehaved canine sauntering along directly beside his master. This is our goal. The only problem is that Fergus hates his Halti. I’ve tried putting the Halti on him every day for a short period of time

so that he can get used to it. We’ve had it two weeks now with very little improvement. He used to spend a great deal of time trying to scratch it off his face but now he is resigned to just lying there, chin in the grass. He won’t get up and he won’t walk with the Halti on. So I turned to the internet for help. It seems I have been going about this all wrong. I watched a video on the dog halter and the trainer advises you introduce the device gradually, with copious amounts of treats. First you coax the dog to put his muzzle through the halter, and reward each time with a treat. Then you pull the halter up over his head as he puts his muzzle through the halter. Now you introduce the instruction “get dressed.” Again, more treats. Finally you buckle the halter on him and reward with — you guessed it — still more treats.

I think that woman handed out approximately 52 treats during the course of the two-minute video. Clearly I will be stocking up. I am wondering if there is such a thing as a treat card, like a coffee card where you get a stamp each time you buy a pack and your tenth one is free? Because if there isn’t, perhaps there should be. We went back to the pet store today, Fergus and I, to ensure the halter I bought him has been properly fitted to his five-month-old head. The clerk witnessed his paralysis after the halter was on, and declared he was acting out in protest. We headed to the drivethru on the way home, and Fergus was introduced to Tim Hortons plain Timbits. I had to show him there is an upside to what he seems to perceive as an extremely humiliating experience. 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 email: dianafisher1@gmail.com

An unexpected encounter with a busy beaver BY MICHAEL RUNTZ

One thing I enjoy about nature is that in the wilds, there are always unanticipated encounters. It might be a spectacular wildflower or unusual insect whose identity remains unsolved until you return home and search the books. Or it might be an encounter with a larger animal, even one with which you are quite familiar. Recently, I experienced the latter. I was in Algonquin Park looking for Common Branded Skippers, tiny northern butterflies that fly in August. For two hours I searched for them in a small meadow near West Smith Lake. This year, apart from Monarchs, most butterflies are scarce; the incessant rain has likely had a negative effect on caterpillars and pupae. The Joe Pye Weed and other meadow wildflowers were alive with bees and flies, but butterflies were near absent; I encountered only three Least Skippers, one Painted Lady and one Aphrodite Fritillary. I was on my knees taking photos of Bumble Bees when I glanced toward the narrow canal that ran along the meadow’s edge to a pond farther out. To my surprise I was looking into the eyes of a beaver. As I slowly moved to change my camera lens, the beaver, which had been floating silently, responded with an explosion of water. Waves soon rippled down the canal toward the pond. Eventually the animal’s head emerged far away and soon was out of sight. I waited quietly and after about 15 minutes the beaver returned. It swam up

the canal, one that had been dug years ago by its ancestors, stopping mere metres from me. For several minutes it silently floated, its nostrils flaring as it smelled the air. When a breeze blew my scent to it, the beaver dove and again vanished. Over the next hour this scenario was repeated several times until the beaver decided I posed no threat. Once satisfied I was harmless, it swam past me and climbed out of the water onto a trail leading to the meadow. It vanished into the dense cloak of Virgin’s Bower that smothered the Bracken Fern and grasses. I

could always tell where the beaver was by the violent shaking of the plants, a scene reminiscent of one in Jurassic Park. Eventually the beaver emerged, a long bouquet of plants clenched in its teeth and trailing behind it. It entered the canal and towed its cargo to a widening where it stopped and began noisily devouring its bounty. A smaller beaver, likely last year’s young, arrived a short time later. When it tried to steal part of the larger beaver’s meal it was met with an angry response, so it settled for nibbling on chunks of Water-lily floating on

the water’s surface. Both beavers regularly swam past me to harvest more plants. One time the larger beaver returned with an impressive White Birch in tow. The physical effort it expended in dragging the tree along the canal and across the pond was admirable. As I have experienced in the past, once Beavers learn your scent they will tolerate your presence. It just requires a lot of patience. And not showering or changing clothes for a week also helps!

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

My mortgage is up for renewal this summer. I will more than likely switch to a different lender. Would I need to use a lawyer to finalize my new mortgage? While some banks and mortgage companies require that their clients retain a lawyer to finalize mortgage refinancing transactions, it is now very common that some lending institutions would either finalize it themselves or use mortgage processing companies. Nevertheless, most lenders would still give you an option of retaining your own lawyer to finalize the transaction. Benefits of using a lawyer. Your lawyer will help you to review and understand complex mortgage documents, such as the registered charge on title to your property, mortgage disclosure statement and standard mortgage terms, and will explain to you your rights and obligations under the mortgage. They will make sure that your old mortgage is discharged from the title to your property. As a lawyer I regularly see mortgages registered on title that have been paid off many years ago, but

have never been discharged by the banks. They will also review with you the mortgage discharge statement to ensure that the payout amount to discharge your old mortgage is correct. Finally, your lawyer will make sure that the terms on the mortgage registered on title are the same terms you have negotiated with your lender. It is not uncommon that long after getting a mortgage some people discover that the amount of mortgage registered on title is a lot higher than the actual amount of the mortgage they received from the lender. This negatively affects their chance of getting a second mortgage or adding a secured line of credit from a different lender. Are you buying or selling your home this summer?
