Morris Island area now charging for parking BY JAKE DAVIES

jake.davies@metroland.com

If you visit the beautiful Morris Island Conservation Area (MICA) this fall, bring your change purse. As of Oct. 2, the Mississippi Valley Conservation Authority (MVCA) will charge $3 for parking at the popular set of walking trails. “The revenue generated from charging entrance fees will be reinvested

directly into the continued maintenance and development of roadways, parking areas, trails and other infrastructure within MICA,” MVCA general manager Paul Lehman said in a recent MVCA press release. On average, MICA sees more than 11,000 visitors per year. In July, 2017, more than 1,000 people visited. The area has a network of trails including a long berm through some of the

The conservation area even has one fully accessible trail, a washroom facility and a few other amenities. Community relations

coordinator Shannon Gutoskie says the MVCA receives lots of feedback on Morris Island. “Many visitors enjoy Morris Island year round and have noted to Mississippi Valley Conservation Authority staff they would like to see improvements

to the site such as more timely snow removal and pothole maintenance,” she told the West Carleton Review. “While no one likes to pay for something that has otherwise been free of charge (or by donation), most people understand that there is a cost as-

Those who do not ‘pay and display’ may find more than a falling leaf on their windshield when they head out at the end of their visit. MICA’s regular hours of operation are from

dawn until dusk, seven days a week. The bathroom facilities are maintained from May to October. Visitors can also purchase an annual parking pass for $40 which also provides admittance to Purdon Conservation Area and the Mill of Kintail Conservation Area. Annual passes are available at the MVCA office in Carleton Place or online at www.mvc.on.ca.

Rural Root Theatre hosting One Act Play Festival BY JAKE DAVIES

jake.davies@metroland.com

The Rural Root Theatre Company is hosting this year’s prestigious One Act Play Festival on Nov. 3 and 4. Rural Root is part of the Eastern Ontario Drama League (EODL), and was selected to host this year’s juried event. The EODL is a network of roughly 50 theatre groups across eastern Ontario and works to foster development and interest in the performing arts. It is also a resource centre for theatre activities in eastern Ontario. The EODL, hosts a fulllength festival in the spring and the one act festival in the fall. This year, the NorthWinds Wireless Fibe Centre, formerly the Constance Bay and Buckham’s Bay Community Centre, will be site to nine one-act plays performed by the troupes of nine different eastern Ontario theatre groups. This year’s festival is celebrating Canada’s 150th birthday and all the theatre troupes selected to perform will be focusing on Canadian-written plays.

All plays will be adjudicated and audience members are invited to listen to the adjudicator’s comments. “For Rural Roots theater, it’s a real showcase for our group and a great opportunity for local theatre fans to see a variety of different productions and learn about the art of production by listening to the adjudicator’s notes,” Rural Root member and festival organizer Lee Powell said. Powell says he expects around 100 actors, directors and production volunteers will come to Constance Bay as part of the festival. “We’re trying to showcase West Carleton,” Powell said. “We’re very proud of how far we’ve come.” Following the performances, the Diefenbunker Cold War Museum will host an awards brunch as 14 separate production awards will be handed out following the festival. Martin Weeden is directing the Rural Roots production called Still Stands the House. Weeden has been with the Rural Roots Theatre Group since Day 1, back in 2005. “Helen (Martin’s wife) and I

were roped in for the first show, a variety show, and we managed to fill the house,” he said. “After that, we were hooked.” Still Stands the House has five actors, “one you don’t see, but certainly do hear.” The production takes place in the 1930s in the prairies. “We just had the recession,” Weeden said. “A farmer is looking after his livestock in a -38 C degree blizzard. He’s outside while his wife and his sister are in the house. His dad died six years earlier, and he’s trying to make a go of it. It’s a bit more serious than we normally do. It is not our usual fare, but we are up for a challenge.” Weeden says one-act plays offer a bit of a challenge as well. “You’ve only got one act and you have to do all the introductory stuff, who the characters are and the story, all in one act,” he said. “It’s demanding of the actors as well.” Rural Roots will be presenting their competition play, as well as two other one-act plays prior to the festival.

Several departments, units respond to hay fire

Jake Davies/Metroland

Ottawa Fire Services, and several other neighbouring departments battled a hay storage facility engulfed in flames on Monday, Oct. 2. Water had to be shuttled from the nearby Mississippi River to douse the flames. A Thomas Cavanagh Construction truck was also seen sharing its load of water with firefighters. The coverall structure was approximately 100 feet by 20 feet. Fire crews from Mississippi Mills, Almonte and Pakenham also responded.

HEART

HELP BROADEN LEAHâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;S HORIZONS Hearing is critical to speech and language development, communication, and learning. At just six months of age Leah was fitted with a bone vibrating hearing aid that she will wear using a soft band around her head until she is old enough to undergo surgery to permanently attach the device. For some children, conventional hearing aids are not as effective due to malformations of the outer or middle ear. Bone conduction hearing aids send vibrations through the bones of the skull directly to the inner ear. In addition to improved listening and language skills, it results in a natural sound with less distortion and feedback. These devices enable a child with significant hearing loss to have access to sound which is critical for brain development. Early intervention with appropriate amplification helps children to learn in school, participate in activities and make friends.

YOU CAN HELP KIDS LIKE LEAH

Through community support, the CHEO Foundation provides funding to CHEOâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s audiology program for equipment and supplies that are not currently covered by public funding. This is just one example of how your generous gifts help children like Leah thrive.

Garden Club meeting will be buzzing about flow hives SPECIAL TO THE REVIEW

Things should be buzzing at the upcoming October meeting of the West Carleton Garden Club. Guest speaker Jacqui Ehninger Cuervo will be presenting “A new and innovative way of beekeeping with the flow hive.” The flow hive is a specialized beehive designed to allow automatic mechanical honey extraction from the frames without any complicated honey extraction processes. The frames of a flow hive contain a partiallyformed plastic honeycomb lattice with vertical gaps. Bees fill in these gaps with beeswax and fill the cells with honey. When the mechanism of the frames is activated, the vertical gaps are offset by one half of a cell, breaking the wax seal and allowing the honey to flow down through the cells into a chamber at the bottom and out into a collection vessel. The system is then reset and bees remove the capping and reseal the cells, beginning the process again. This flow hive system costs significantly more than traditional hives. This flow hive system was invented in Australia by Cedar Anderson and his father Stuart Anderson. In Feb. 2015 they launched a campaign on crowdfunding platform Indiegogo, hoping to raise $70,000. They ended up raising over $12

million and received nearly 25,000 orders from over 130 countries. The campaign broke records for Indiegogo, becoming its most successful campaign. The flow hive system only changes the process of harvesting of honey. The rest of the beekeeping process such as regular maintenance and observation to check for diseases and other problems remains the same as with traditional beekeeping. The flow hive system simplifies the practice of extracting honey, especially for small beekeepers without expensive extraction equipment. With the flow hive system, there is no need to open a hive in order to extract honey from a comb. A beehive generally is a structure used by humans to house a honey bee nest. A beehive’s internal structure is a densely packed group of cells made of beeswax called a honeycomb. The bees use the cells to store food i.e. honey and to house eggs. Bee in beehives not only produce honey but pollinate nearby crops and house bees. The October meeting of the West Carleton Garden Club at which the flow hive will be discussed will take place on Tuesday, Oct. 10 at 7:30 p.m. at the Carp Memorial Hall in Carp. Everyone is welcome to attend this meeting, although there is a guest fee of five dollars for nonmembers of the Garden Club.

Cardboard Cafe makes its return at Corkery Community Centre

Notice of Study Commencement Vanguard Drive Extension Environmental Assessment Study Project Overview The City of Ottawa has initiated an Environmental Assessment (EA) study to develop a Recommended Plan for the extension of Vanguard Drive from Lanthier Drive to Mer Bleue Road. Study Area The EA study limits for the extension of Vanguard Drive will extend from Lanthier Drive in the east to Mer Bleue Road in the west. The Study Area as shown in Figure 1 will cover a broader area extending westerly to west of Frank Bender Street and easterly to Tenth Line Road, to address environmental impacts, operational issues and to co-ordinate with relevant on-going studies and projects. This ensures that a reasonable range of alternatives can be developed and assessed. Rationale for Extension of Vanguard Drive The Official Plan, as amended by Official Plan Amendment (OPA) 150, identifies the westerly extension of the Vanguard Drive on Schedule EA as a future east-west collector road. The existing Vanguard Drive is an east-west collector road with an urban cross-section that runs between the arterial road Tenth Line Road and the local road Lanthier Drive. In September 2016, the City of Ottawa Planning Committee established a strategy and work program for the construction of the Vanguard Drive extension to support economic development of the South Orléans Business Park. The EA study will identify and protect a corridor for the roadway extension. Study Process The study is being conducted in accordance with Ontario’s EA Act, fulfilling requirements as a Municipal Class EA process for a Schedule C project. The City must consider alternative designs for the project, undertake public and agency consultation, assess the potential environmental effects of the Recommended Plan and identify measures to mitigate any such impacts.

Board games twice a month

As part of the study process, an Environmental Study Report (ESR) will be prepared for public review. Following the public review period, the project will be considered to have EA approval and may proceed to implementation once funding is in place.

The Corkery Community Association will once again be hosting the Cardboard Café at the Corkery Community Centre starting on Tuesday, Oct. 10. Join your neighbours in playing your favourite board games or learning new ones. The Cardboard Café will be taking place every second and fourth Tuesday of the month from 7 p.m. to 9 p.m. A play group meets every Friday from 10 a.m. to 11:30 a.m. at the centre, found at 3447 Old Almonte Rd. at Corkery. A crochet club is being held every Wednesday from 7 p.m. to 9 p.m. at the centre. All ages and skill levels are welcome. All you need is yarn and a hook. The Corkery community needs a new rink boss for the coming skating season. There is also a need for more volunteer flooders. The rink boss will receive compensation. A volunteer flooder usually floods at least one night a week. For more information, please contact the Corkery Community Association.

The EA process will include a consultation program involving many stakeholders, including the City of Ottawa, the Government of Ontario, the Government of Canada, and other approval and regulatory agencies, local community associations, businesses and institutions, special advisory and interest groups, and members of the general public. The study is expected to be completed by late 2018.

OPINION

Connected to your community

Library should be porn free

he Ottawa Public Library is funded handsomely by taxpayers not only to be a publicly-accessible repository of information and other resources but also to be a representative beacon of pride for the municipality. That’s why, for example, there’s a push to have an impressive new central library branch, to be a symbol of all that is good and prideful about the city. But how can anyone take much pride in a public library that places its theoretical status as the defender of intellectual freedom ahead of ensuing a safe environment for its patrons, especially its youthful ones? It may have been that at one time the public library had to be the defender of intellectual freedom, providing unrestricted access to the information of which it was virtually the sole source. But things have changed — the public library is now only one of the, and indeed not even the major, gatekeepers of information. Its traditional role has been overtaken by Google and the internet in general. So, why does the Ottawa Public Library’s adherence to intellectual freedom take precedence over its role as a supporter and upholder of

public morals? This makes no sense. Instead of only tweaking its policy regarding the viewing of pornography and other obnoxious subjects, the Ottawa Public Library should have opted to totally block all pornography and other offensive material, putting the interests of patrons first. The viewing of pornography, whether legal or not, is not an appropriate activity in a public place. It’s that simple! But, instead, the Ottawa Public Library still places the onus for public morality and standards on the shoulders of each and every patron. A complaint has to be lodged before any action is taken to police pornography. We should expect more from a publicly-funded institution like the Ottawa Public Library. We should expect leadership that eliminates all blatantly offensive material. We should have a child-friendly library, not an X-rated library. And if this infringes a little on that sacred cow of freedom of information, so be it. There are lots of sources of information in today’s social media world. Unfortunately, there’s not a lot of sources of public morality and behaviour. The Ottawa Public Library should be one, but unfortunately it has shown it is not.

Here we go again on fixing Sparks Street I

f you had a nickel for every time somebody tried to fix the Sparks Street mall you’d have more than a few dollars by now. And it begins again. Another nickel. Another consultant hired to study the street and figure out how to make it better. Mayor Jim Watson says he’s serious about this. Well, people have always been serious. They were serious when the pedestrian mall began in 1967. They were serious when they put up statues, then took them down, when they put odd structures in the middle of the street then got rid of them, when they experimented with markets, when they agonized over buskers, when they suggested maybe putting traffic back on, and then withdrew the suggestion. Most people recognize the main source of the problem: not enough people around, particularly at night. Not enough people live downtown

CHARLES GORDON Funny Town

and not enough people drive downtown in the evenings. Those who do go to the ByWard Market. So it is not just that there too few people around. There is also a failure to attract the few people who are around. The mall is competing with the market, with suburban malls and their late hours, with suburban cinema complexes — not to mention Netflix and all the other diversions that are located in people’s homes. And Sparks Street is competing, as it always has, with the Rideau Centre, which scooped up a number of Sparks Vice President & Regional Publisher Peter Bishop pbishop@metroland.com 613-283-3182

Street stores and a lot of Sparks Street customers when it opened in 1983. That might have been the beginning of the end for Sparks Street, but Sparks Street didn’t do much to help itself recover. The policies of Public Works, which owns many of the buildings on the street, have been much discussed, but the merchants contributed to their own difficulties by refusing to stay open late. An underlying problem was the lack of people living downtown. Most of the buildings within walking distance of Sparks were office buildings and emptied at night. So even if Sparks Street had been jumping at night there were few people around to take advantage of it. Still, other North American cities have faced similar difficulties and pedestrian malls have thrived in other cities. Ottawa has taken a few ideas from elsewhere, but these are mostly

gimmicks — mini-festivals of one sort or another: ribs, poutine, etc. Nice stuff, but you can’t run them every day. What does Sparks Street need? Something visually striking: a really great fountain, perhaps, that people could hang out around. Something permanent and interesting: a museum —hey, what about the portrait gallery? Some distinctive retail: stores that can’t be found in any shopping centre in the city. Or, more generally, something that no one has thought of yet — a bold piece of entrepreneurship that makes up for all the years of dullness and caution. In the long run, help may be on the way. More bars and restaurants are open on the mall. More residential construction is promised for the area. In the even longer run, Sparks Street may receive some positive spin-

off when LeBreton Flats is completed and more people come downtown for hockey games and other LeBreton events. Those people might be looking for something fun to do before or after. Will Sparks Street be ready for them?

Drainage

Along Carp Road Corridor SPECIAL TO THE REVIEW

Manufacturers in the Carp Road Corridor are among those across the city interested in raising the profile of the manufacturing sector in Ottawa. The Carp Road Corridor BIA and some of the Corridor business owners have met with others in the city to discuss ideas to promote the manufacturing sector. These include creation of a director or database of manufacturers and their websites; creation of a local advocacy group to reach out to the public, to the industry in general, and to the government; identification of ways to improve training opportunities for those who want to enter the manufacturing industry; establishment local connections with education at all levels from elementary to university; and development of a means of collaborating and sharing of information among Ottawa’s manufacturers. In recent months, the Carp Road Corridor BIA has been reaching out to members to hear their business challenges. One challenge which is frequently expressed is finding and keeping good employees. As a result, the BIA has been working on a few initiatives to raise awareness of the Carp Road Corridor and help businesses attract employees. These include a profile of the Carp Road Corridor in the next issue of the West Ottawa Living Magazine; meeting with OC Transpo to identify how some form of employee transportation service could be provided in the Carp Road Corridor; and reaching out to Algonquin College to better understand how its programs are preparing students to work at jobs found along the Carp Road Corridor and to raise awareness of the Corridor among students. As announced in the 2017 federal budget, the Department of Finance is working on legislative changes that target tax strategies available to private Canadian corporations. These include income “sprinkling”, holding passive investments inside the corporation and converting income into capital gains. Business owners along the Carp

Road Corridor who are concerned should contact federal Liberal MP Karen McCrimmon at Karen.McCrimmon@ parl.gc.ca or send a letter to Karen McCrimmon, MP, 555 Legget Dr., Suite 121, Ottawa, Ont., K2K 2X3. With regard to security in the Carp Road Corridor, the Ottawa Police Service has only four incidents of break-in or theft at properties along the Carp Road Corridor in the past three months. Carp Road BIA Corridor members are encouraged to report incidents to the police. A member of the Ottawa Police Service has toured the Carp Road Corridor and will be providing the BIA with comments on how owners can protect their properties. The Carp Road Corridor BIA has discussed with its members the cost and possible value of extending municipal water service to the Corridor. Since last year, both the Carp Road Corridor BIA and the Carp Village BIA have been working together to promote the extension of municipal water service from Kanata to Carp village. John Curry/Metroland Such a project would provide a permanent solution to A sign along the Carp Road identifies the Carp Road poor well water quality in Carp and would remove pos- Corridor. sible commercial growth and site use constraints in the “wellhead protection area” of Carp village which stretches from the village into the Corridor area. This could provide economic stimulus to vacant land in the Corridor by removing costly private fire-protection costs. More information on this possibility will be provided to BIA members at the upcoming annual general meetings of the Carp Road Corridor BIA and the Carp Village BIA. The Carp Road Corridor BIA acts as the voice of over 300 businesses and property owners along the Carp Road in West Carleton. The Carp Road Corridor BIA can be contacted at 613-314-7597 or via email at roddy.bolivar@ crcbia.

SPECIAL TO THE REVIEW

Drainage is a current concern of the Carp Road Corridor Business Improvement Area. A few businesses along Carp Road have regularly reported flooding problems to the business improvement area (BIA). Drainage problems can impact businesses in two ways, both from direct flood damage and from losses resulting from business interruption following flooding.

‘Blackrapids Farmfest: An evening with the Ruiters’ SPECIAL TO THE REVIEW

‘Ignore the rain, look at the rainbow.’ These words are inspiring both Peter and Rosemary Ruiter and the whole community in the aftermath of a devastating fire on September 8th that destroyed three barns, an 80-cow dairy herd and the livelihood of the Ruiter family. The landmark farm on Prince of Wales in Nepean was considered by many as a beacon of agricultural excellence for the community. The community wants to show its support for the Ruiters in their time of need, and the Ruiters want to give thanks to their many friends, family and strangers who have shown such inspirited generosity. This celebration will take place on Saturday, October 14 at the North Gower Community Centre in North Gower with the ‘Blackrapids Farmfest: An evening with the Ruiters’. All are welcome. “The outpouring of generosity and help has been overwhelming. My family and I are so grateful,” says Peter Ruiter. “I just consider myself to be a regular guy who has always helped my neighbours and community as best I can. But this response has been… Well, it’s been humbling to say the least.” When asked what his plans are for the future, Ruiter responds, “It’s too early to make any big decisions just yet. We are still in clean-up mode and assessing the damage. There is a lot to consider and I am not going to make any rushed decisions.” The evening will start with a quieter reception from 6 – 8 p.m. with coffee and desserts being served. This time is to accommodate those who would like to drop by and visit, but can’t stay the whole evening. From 8 – 9 p.m. there will be speeches and a live auction, followed by a dance, buffet and silent auction. Admission is free but donations will be gratefully accepted at the door. “Our goals for the evening are two-fold,” explains Wyatt McWilliams, event co-chair. “One is to raise as much money as we can to help Peter and Rosie recoup their losses. And two, is to show our support from the community for which they have helped so much. They have always been there whenever the community needed something, now it’s our pleasure to be there for them.” Anyone wishing to support this event with an item for the live or silent auctions may do so by contacting Jane Schoones at JSchoones@ rogers.com. Donations are also being accepted through https://www. gofundme.com/ruiter-family-barnfire-recovery. For more details, like us on Facebook at Blackrapids Farmfest.

NOTICE OF PUBLIC MEETINGS – ROUND 2

YOW 2038 – Ottawa Macdonald-Cartier International Airport (YOW) Master Plan Update The Ottawa Macdonald-Cartier International Airport (YOW) is updating the Airport Master Plan (last updated in 2008).

WHAT IS AN AIRPORT MASTER PLAN?

The Airport Master Plan establishes a strategy to address your airport’s future by creating a 20-year development framework (to 2038) that will ensure the best use of YOW’s fundamental resource – land. The YOW 2038 Master Plan will identify how:    

the needs of stakeholders and the communities we serve will be met in the future; growth in passenger, aircraft, and cargo volumes will be accommodated; the longer-term viability of the airport will be supported; and the airport’s key strategic objectives will be achieved.

WHY IS THE AIRPORT UPDATING THE MASTER PLAN?

Transport Canada requires the airport to update its Master Plan every 10 years. The Master Plan assists airport management in making informed decisions about the timing and estimate d costs of future improvements, action plans, and preferred development solutions.

PUBLIC MEETINGS - ROUND 2 (OTTAWA AND GATINEAU)

The first round of public meetings was heldin July 2017 to introduce the Master Plan update. The Ottawa Macdonald-Cartier International Airport Authority invites you to attend the secondround of public meetings to review and provide input on the Airport’s PreferredLand Use Plan which maps land use designations and identifies where andhow future growth and development of the airport lands willoccur over the next 20 years. The Land Use Plan was last updated in 2008. Proposed key changes include:   

The designation of a section of land adjacent to the existing terminal building andparkade structure will be changed to “Commercial Aviation/Non-Aviation Employment Area” to reflect the future development of a hotel; The designation of some leased lands located north of Taxiway A will be changed to “Government Employment Area” to reflect current tenants; and The existing “Greenbelt Linkage” designation will be expandedacross th e southern lands of the airport.

The public meetings will be held in both Ottawa andGatineau. Airport staff and its consultants will be available to answer questions. Please visit the project website (www.yow.ca/2038) to review digital mapping of the Preferred Land Use Plan and provide comments. DATE: Wednesday, October 11, 2017 TIME: 6 p.m. to 8 p.m. LOCATION: Riverside UnitedChurch (Sanctuary) 3191 Riverside Drive Ottawa, ON

DATE: Thursday, October 12, 2017 TIME: 6 p.m. to 8 p.m. LOCATION: Centre communautaire Belmont 26, rue Belmont Gatineau, QC

Please note: The venues are fully accessible. The same information will be presentedat both meetings, and information will be available in both official languages.

Relishing Mother’s kitchen treats

other put the last lid on the jar of plum preserves. They had stewed on the back of the Findlay Oval all morning. Then with a slotted spoon, she put them in the big brown bowl, and when they were cool enough to handle, with her well-scrubbed hands she squished out the stones, which were put on the breadboard. The pitted plums were then bottled. The stones were my treat. How I loved to smash them with the little kitchen hammer, and then eat the innards. To me, the pulp was as good as anything I could buy from the candy counter at the Five and Dime store in Renfrew. When Mother and I were alone in the kitchen, just the two of us, there were other treats to come my way too.

“How would you like some oven toast?” she might ask. Would I? My mouth would water just thinking of it. Thin slices of bread would be slathered with butter on both sides, and put on a wire rack over a tin pie plate, and put in the hot oven. I could hardly stand the wait, as it toasted on the topside, and then the slices were flipped over to turn a golden brown on the other. It was crisp when taken out of the oven, and piping hot, and I devoured yet another treat of that magic time alone with Mother in the kitchen. I loved when Mother was making relish this time of year. The smell of the spices, as the corn, or beets, cucumbers, or tomatoes stewing on the stove filled the kitchen.

Mother would ladle out a heaping spoonful into a fruit nappy, and I would butter a slice of homemade bread, and dip it into the relish, and devour it in minutes. I knew if I asked for a second helping, Mother would say, “Better not... you don’t want to spoil your dinner.” Even if dinner was hours away, only one fruit nappy was all I was given, but how I loved that special treat. I think I was the only one in our entire family who liked crispy fried pork rinds. Before a slab of smoked bacon was fried, it was sliced thin, and the rind removed. Mother knew I loved this rind, and so while the bacon was frying in the big black pan, room was made for the slivers of rind for me, and when they were as crisp as little pieces of raw spaghetti, another special treat came my way. Our ample vegetable garden served us well. I

knew we would never go hungry over the coming winters when those shelves in the dug-out under the house we called a cellar, were full of canned vegetables, preserves, jams and jellies. Mother would spend days this time of year, “putting down.” And if I happened to be in the kitchen when she was making cucumber relish, I never failed to have a cucumber sandwich. To me, thick slices between two pieces of freshly baked bread, well buttered of course, was a special treat. No one else in my family, it seemed to me, liked cu-

cumber sandwiches. But I could make a meal of them, if I was allowed, but again Mother would say, “Don’t 1-866-384-0012 www.MapleLeafTours.com spoil your supper.” Any one of these special treats would have been enough to amply satisfy me to replace my dinner or supper if allowed.

St. Michael Catholic School at Corkery continues an education tradition in the community that goes back to the very first settlers in the 1820’s.

St. Michael Catholic School at Corkery SPECIAL TO THE REVIEW

St. Michael Catholic School at Corkery traces its history back to 1840 when what was known as the Manion’s School was built. This school later became S.S. No. 6 of Huntley when school sections were introduced in 1851. It became one of four schools to serve residents of the Upper Huntley area. The Upper Huntley area had first been settled in 1823 when Peter Robinson led a group of more than 500 settlers to the area, nearly all of them Roman Catholics. Indeed, St. Michael Catholic Parish was established in 1824 with masses taking places in the homes of settlers. In 1837, St. Michael Catholic Church was built as a log structure. This building, later covered with clapboard, was used until 1864 when the present stone church was built. In education, it was S.S. No. 6 which was the direct ancestor of the current St. Michael Catholic School at Corkery. S.S. No 6 at Manion’s Corners was closed in 1919 when a Roman Catholic school was established.

The first organization meeting for this new Catholic school was held at the St. Michael Parish Hall in June, 1919. This was followed by another meeting two days later at which Tim N. Scott, William J. (Big Bill) Egan and Frank Forrest were elected as trustees for the new Catholic school. Subsequently the archbishop agreed that the new school could be erected on church property at Corkery. The wooden school was built quickly, opening in 1919. The school, along with the adjacent church, became the centre for religious, social and educational life for Catholics in Upper Huntley. In 1965, the Catholic school at Corkery was consolidated with S.S. No. 7 and S.S. No. 8 of Huntley, with a new three room school built beside the church. This new school received a semi-permanent addition in 1967. In 1982, a five classroom portable expansion was added at the school, carried out by the then-Carleton Roman Catholic Separate School Board. In John Curry/Metroland 1996, St. Michael Catholic School at St. Michael Catholic Church in Corkery is located Corkery received a facelift and renoadjacent to St. Michael Catholic School. vations including another addition.

This presentation to the Dare to Care campaign related to the Care Coach was just one of the items dealt with at the meeting. The Lorne Sutherland WI received a thank you from the Dave Smith Youth Treatment Centre for a donation which had been given by the WI branch. The Lorne Sutherland WI is renewing its membership with the Central Experimental Farm at an annual cost of $25.

Another workshop, this one on fermentation, is being held in Kinburn on Oct. 22 but the Lorne Sutherland WI will not be able to have a representative in attendance that day. The WI Area Convention hosted by the Russell District is being held on Oct. 16 in Embrun. Although the Lorne Sutherland WI will not be sending a representative to this Area Convention, word will be sent that the Lorne Sutherland WI supports a proposal that the Area WI use some of its funds to digitize Tweedsmuir history books. A convention is being held in Kingston at the end of November. Lorne Sutherland WI members will decide at the branch’s next meeting who will be attending from the branch. The Renfrew District WI is holding a craft day in Calabogie on Saturday, Nov. 4. There will be workshops in making a denim angel with a gift box; a stuffed owl; a greenery arrangement; and a rustic birdhouse. Lorne Sutherland WI members Joyce Headrick and Berna McClure will be attending. The Lorne Sutherland WI will be catering one of the Thursday evening euchres coming up in November at the Galetta Hall. In addition, it will be catering an upcoming Diners Club lunch at the Galetta Hall. The Lorne Sutherland WI has been asked to support the Erland Lee Museum at Stoney Creek which the Federated Women’s Institutes of Ontario owns. Each WI branch is being asked to consider a $200 donation. The Erland Lee Museum, which opened

in 1972, has been a national historic site since 2003. It was the birthplace of the Women’s Institute as Janet Lee, one of the founders of the WI, wrote the original WI constitution on the dining room table in the home in 1897. Janet Lee, her husband Erland Lee and Adelaide Hoodless are considered the founders of the WI. The WI was founded in 1897 to promote education among isolated rural women. The Lorne Sutherland WI has also been asked by the Federated Women’s Institute of Ontario to support the nomination of the late Peggy Knapp to the Canadian Agricultural Hall of Fame. Such support would include a monetary pledge to help pay for a portrait of Peggy Knapp for display in the Hall of Fame if the nomination is successful. The Lorne Sutherland WI has not yet made a decision on making such a monetary pledge nor the amount of such a pledge. Peggy Knapp, who died in 2014, had been a WI member since 1950. She served at the branch, district and area levels and was the provincial president of the Federated Women’s Institute of Ontario from 1989 to 1991. She also was the Canada Area president for the Associated Country Women of the World. She chaired the WI’s “Convention ‘97” which celebrated the 100th anniversary of the founding of the WI. In 1998, she was inducted into the Ontario Agricultural Hall of Fame. She served as president of the Canadian Agricultural Hall of Fame and was a member of the executive of the Royal Agricultural Winter Fair.

Give A Jewel, Feed A School

Help us raise money for school breakfast programs in Nunavut. REALIZING THE NEED Eva von Jagow, a student from Stittsville, was researching Nunavut for a school project when she came across the harsh reality of nutrition in our Far North. She was shocked to see a photo of a jar of peanut butter costing $18.99 in a Nunavut supermarket! Eva quickly learned even with federal shipping subsidies, a head of cabbage can cost over $20. A three-litre container of orange juice is typically $9. In the winter months especially, fresh fruit and vegetables are exorbitantly priced and of poor quality. All this means that many Nunavut children start off their school day with poor nutrition. In Canada, a country that is hailed as having one of the highest standards of living in the world, no child should be going to school hungry or malnourished.

Drop-off until November 10, 2017

CRAVING CHANGE Eva decided she wanted to help, and she wanted to start by giving children a healthy start to the day, beginning with breakfast. She contacted the Breakfast Club of Canada and they agreed to direct any money she raised to specific Nunavut schools in need of a funded breakfast program.

The idea for the All That Glam fundraiser itself came to her while helping her mom clean out her closet and jewelry box. Like many women, Eva’s mother, Karen, wore the same 10 to 20 pieces of jewelry and used the same five handbags most of the time. That’s when Eva thought, “Women donate their clothes all the time; why not their jewelry?” This realization sparked the idea to create a gently-used jewelry and handbag sale to raise money for Nunavut schools. NOURISHING CORAL HARBOUR SCHOOL’S BREAKFAST PROGRAM The All That Glam Sale has become an annual event. For the 5th year running, the fundraiser will collect donated jewelry and handbags from the community and resell the pieces at a one-day sale to raise money needed to provide nourishment to children in Nunavut. To date, All That Glam has donated over $100,000 to Sakku School in Coral Harbour (with corporate fund matching) which wouldn’t have been possible without the support and generosity of the local community and our sponsors. A heartfelt thank you to each and every one of you. A special thanks to the Breakfast Club of Canada for directing the money raised to the Coral Harbour School. For more information on the Breakfast Club of Canada and their initiatives, please visit The Breakfast Club of Canada’s website.

Member of Parliament Kanata-Carleton Carp Fair

I would like to thank all those who came out to the Carp Fair. It was so great to see the crowds come out on the warmest weekend of the â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;summerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; and experience why the Fair has earned its name as â&#x20AC;&#x153;The Greatest Little Fair in Canadaâ&#x20AC;?. Once again the community of Carp lived up to and surpassed all expectations. Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d like to thank the organizers and volunteers, the farmers, vendors, and participants who came from miles around to participate in such a wonderful community event. Whether that was breeding livestock, herding cattle or offering up incredible food to the hungry fair goers. It was so great to speak to so many of you who took the time to stop and say hello. I look forward to seeing you all next year!

I had the honour of travelling to Toronto to watch athletes from Canada and around the world compete at the 2017 Invictus Games. I had the opportunity to watch a number of different sports taking place at the Games, from volleyball to wheelchair rugby, perhaps one of the most intense sports I have ever witnessed. A huge thank you goes out to the volunteers and organizers of the Invictus Games, and all those who provided such great support. Thank you to His Royal Highness Prince Harry, The Right Honourable Justin Trudeau, and The Honourable Seamus Oâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;Regan for their tremendous support of the Games and to the athletes. Lastly, the biggest thanks of all go out to the ill and injured Canadian Forces members and veterans whose indomitable spirit and camaraderie, together with their sense of brotherhood make them all true Canadian heroes.

City backs off on proposed increase in stormwater fees BY JENNIFER MCINTOSH

The city will finance more work on water infrastructure through deficit thanks to a decision to back off a proposed increase in revenue from stormwater fees. Instead of the recommended 13 per cent per year over the next decade, proposed by staff at the city’s environment committee on Sept. 19, council on Sept. 27 voted on a motion that would keep the increases to five per cent per year. Barrhaven Coun. Jan Harder was in support of the compromise. “When we did the fee structure review, we went back to the drawing board to come up with something more fair,” she said of the changes to the water and stormwater billing done last year. The city needs $2.6 billion over the next 10 years to deal with the backlog of capital investments in the water infrastructure. Kitchissippi Coun. Jeff Leiper pointed out that deferring fee increases will mean another $1 million in debt financing down the road. Leiper, along with Gloucester-South Nepean Coun. Michael Qaqish and Osgoode Coun. George Darouze, voted against the stormwater motion. Darouze said he hasn’t had the opportunity to properly consult with his resident on the proposed increase. “Saving a couple of bucks per year for residents now will create a debt problem for the fu-

ture,” Leiper said. City treasurer Marian Simulik said staff will have to come back to council on the fee increase for 2019. She also said staff will look at “nonfinancial measures,” to deal with needed work. Another element of the stormwater motion was to ask staff to provide a list of needed work. Rideau-Goulbourn Coun. Scott Moffatt said it’s tough to support a fee increase when councillors don’t know where the money is going. “Residents want to know what the needs are and where their money’s going,” he said. Capital Coun. David Chernushenko, who also heads the city’s environment committee, said he’s proud to support the motion with the knowledge that the city’s water infrastructure is being properly funded. “And no resident feels like they’re being unjustly charged,” he said. The stormwater fee was combined with the road tax before the city amalgamated in 2000. Since rural areas were absorbed into the City of Ottawa, they hadn't been paying for the upkeep. The city has 8,500 kilometres of stormwater, water and sanitary pipes. There are 92 pump stations and 5,800 culverts. There’s also the Lemieux Island and Britannia water treatment facilities. According to the capital asset management report, which was also presented to the committee, 93 per cent of city assets are in fair to very good condition. The infrastructure that needs repairs is triaged according to need, based on the city’s risk-based approach.

The skin’s game winners were Perry Freda, Ray Kulchyski, Gary Grainger and Travis Fraser. As noted, this year’s event was the 25th annual gathering of local amateur golfers to the invitational competition which has been sponsored and hosted by the Munro Family and the Madawaska Golf Club since inception. The first competition was held in 1993 between the Madawaska Golf Club and the Arnprior Golf Club. The Mountain Creek Golf Club entered the event in 1994 followed by the Pakenham Highlands Golf Course in 2000, an event that they won in their inaugural year. Special thanks to Rick Munro and Victoria Oliver for hosting the event, to Martyn Munro and his staff for the excellent playing conditions and to Debbie Fraser (Food and Beverage Manager at the club) for another great meal.

Target distributions are not guaranteed and may change at any time at the discretion of the fund’s Manager. If distributions paid by the fund are greater than the performance of the fund, distributions paid may include a return of capital and an investor’s original investment will shrink.

Moonstone Manor bed and breakfast BY JOHN CURRY

john.curry@metroland.com

It’s a bed and breakfast bearing the name of a gemstone that can represent peace and harmony within the body and spirit. But Moonstone Manor B and B takes its name not from this gemstone but from the road on which it is located. Moonstone Road is off the Carp Road south of Highway 417 in West Carleton, but

just outside Stittsville. Owners Susan Anderson and Mark Dickinson have opened Moonstone Manor B and B in their completely renovated home at 130 Moonstone Rd., with three bedrooms all with their own private bath. Susan explains that she loves meeting new people and also loves to entertain, so opening a B and B seemed like a good way to accomplish both. In addition, she loves to cook and bake, other passions that she can now

pursue with her B and B guests. She admits that she had the idea of hosting a B and B for a while, but she wanted to ensure that her home setting was presentable for such a role. She and Mark have lived in the 40-year-old house for 16 years, but before becoming a B and B, it was time to renovate and update everything and that’s what they did, with Mark himself doing quite a bit of the work. See MOONSTONE MANOR, page 31

Jack MacLaren Member of Provincial Parliament Carleton-Mississippi Mills

Hurting our Small Businesses It goes without saying, but I will say it any ways, small businesses are the backbone of the Canadian economy, always have been and always will be. But our Provincial and Federal governments don’t seem to understand this. Recently I met with a constituent who I will call D, she runs a not for profit day care in northern Kanata, and she told me how the new minimum wage and tax increases will hurt her business. With the hiked minimum wage at $15/hr, her Early Childhood Educators who earn around $18/hr, will rightfully expect an increase in salary because without one their work becomes devalued. But D can’t afford this increase, the new salary equivalent would be almost $24/hr to keep the same rate of pay. Now D fears her employees will be looking at other jobs that now have wages that are artificially more competitive with less stressful work. On top of the higher minimum wage D finds herself caught up in the new tax hikes on small businesses that the federal government is proposing. These new taxes will make it harder for D to save for her retirement, and harder to re-invest in her business to create a better environment for the children she cares for. These reforms are going to hurt our businesses, they are going to hurt our farmers, and they are going to hurt our doctors. We must stop them.

Costs are $140 per night for The Porch Room, $130 per night for The Pine Room and $120 per night for The Chelsea Room. Internet is available in all three rooms. Susan feels that her prices are fair as they not only include the accommodation and a full breakfast but also complimentary tea, water and pop. She also bakes muffins and cookies for her guests. “I want to provide quality for a fair price,” she says. In addition, visitors can enjoy a common room on the first floor which is filled with puzzles and board games.

Susan calls it a “nice quiet room.” It has a heritage wood fireplace mantel that came from a home on Gilmour Street in Ottawa and which Susan views as a “real treasure.” Visitors also get to enjoy an outdoor salt water pool (in season) as well as a yearround hot tub. There’s a fire pit in the backyard. Other common areas include the living room, the dining room and a sun room. There’s also a couple of chairs in the landing area at the top of the stairs where a guest can read, chat or just relax. The home is a smokefree environment.

An adult-catered B and B, Moonstone Manor serves a breakfast for its guests including homemade breads, jams, quiche, eggs Benedict, bacon, sausages, fresh fruits, yogurt, eggs, tea, coffee, juice and more. Moonstone Manor B and B is close to the Canadian Tire Centre and to the Tanger Outlet Mall as well as to the Kanata Centrum shopping area. It is located on a street that is very quiet, especially on the weekends, and its spacious circular driveway allows for lots of visitor parking.

A floral rock garden is situated along much of the home’s frontage. Although Susan and Mark have two dogs and two cats, no visiting pets are allowed for the B and B. Moonstone Manor Bed and Breakfast is located at 130 Moonstone Rd. just west of Carp Road between Hazeldean Road and Highway 417 and accessed from Rothbourne Road west from Carp Road.

Each week, a lawyer from the Kanata based Allan Snelling law firm will answer a reader’s question. A weekly guide in legal matters

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

My husband and I have been married for the last 25 years but don’t have any children. Do we need a Will, or would everything just go to the surviving spouse anyway? Yes, you do need a Will. Whenever you don’t have any children, under the statutory distribution scheme for individuals that die without a Will, your spouse would receive your entire estate. However, you should still have a will for at least two reasons: 1. Appointing an executor of your estate; and 2. Making instructions for the distribution of your estate in the event that you’re predeceased by your spouse.

1. Appointment of an executor of your estate. John Curry/Metroland

The executor named in a Will has the legal authority to take possession of all your assets, do your final income tax returns, and deal with banks and government institutions. If you don’t have a Will, a court would have to appoint an executor of your estate to deal with any assets that were not jointly owned, as well as any registered investments that did not have a named beneficiary. The process of appointing an executor usually takes a few months, so in addition to incurring unnecessary costs, there will be an extended delay during which your spouse will not have access to the assets in your estate. In my experience, some financial institutions will waive a probate requirement if your spouse is the named executor and the only beneficiary of your estate, which could provide your spouse with ready access to some assets shortly after your death.

He obtained his law degree from the University of Ottawa’s Common Law program in 2011 and subsequently articled in Burlington, Ontario.

2. Distribution of your estate if you survive your spouse. By having a Will in place, you will make sure that your estate is distributed the way you want it to be in the event that your spouse passes away shortly before you, or in the event that you are unable to make a Will after your spouse’s death. Under the statutory distribution scheme, if you don’t have a spouse nor children, your estate would go to your parents. Alternatively, if your parents are deceased, your estate would go to your siblings. This may not be your wish. For example you might want to leave part of your estate to your spouse’s family, or you may wish to skip your parents and siblings and distribute the estate among your and your spouse’s nieces and nephews, or make gifts to a charity or charities. No matter which option you choose, having a Will can provide the peace of mind of knowing that your estate will be distributed according to your wishes.

How we use the internet is evolving, but can your internet provider keep up? We all love the Internet. Thanks to the availability of millions of new services and apps (as of March 2017, Apple’s App Store alone offered 2.2 million apps1), the Internet is making it easier than ever to work, socialize, play, shop, learn, share and keep ourselves entertained from our laptops, tablets and phones. Our nation spends more time online than any other (36.7 hours/month2) as we use our computers to watch movies and TV, our tablets to read, and our smartphones to browse and play. Internet usage is at an all-time high, as 89% of Canadians connect to the Internet.2 In fact, high-speed Internet has become so important to us that 73% of Canadians say they would be unlikely to purchase a home that didn’t have access to high-speed Internet.2

anything about these problems, so you wait for the connection to improve. Why does this happen? Often, it is because of something called “peak hours.” Peak hours are times of the day when more people are online. Maybe your neighbours are streaming movies, sending emails or just surfing the web. It is during these peak hours, when everyone is online at the same time, that some Internet service providers cannot keep up with demand and your connection becomes unreliable. Considering how important the Internet can be in day-to-day life, the challenges of a bad connection can feel endless.

Does your Internet provider give you the freedom you’re looking for?

We demand a lot of our Internet service, especially with more people online at the same time.

Whether kicking back and relaxing, helping the kids with a school projector putting in some overtime from home, Canadians are more connected than ever. Unfortunately, many of us have difficulty finding an Internet provider that can keep up, all because of where we live. As technology evolves, those who live outside of urban areas continue to be limited to what entertainment we can enjoy, how our families can connect, and where we can work. We should be beyond this problem, shouldn’t we?

If you’re spending time online (and who isn’t these days?), you’re likely familiar with the frustration of slow connection speeds, or an Internet connection that simply doesn’t work. We’ve all experienced these problems: Netflix slows to a standstill, emails sit in your outbox, or that dreaded icon spins endlessly in the middle of your screen. You feel helpless to do

500 GB of data/month means you can: Watch 200 hours of Netflix

and

Skype for over 1,000 hours

and

and

Fortunately, there are new options to make the most of our online experience, even in rural areas.

Outsmart slowdowns with Xplornet’s new & improved LTE network To get ahead of slow Internet, look for a true high-speed Internet provider with state-of-the-art technology in your area.

Penny’s Fudge Factory moving to Pakenham BY JAKE DAVIES

jake.davies@metroland.com

While the business started in Fitzroy Harbour, owners Vic and Carole Bodé are from Pakenham and they are bringing Penny’s Fudge Factory home. The owners recently made the tough decision to take their business closer to home. Penny’s Fudge Factory opened in Fitzroy Harbour in 1989 and was then owned by Syd and Judy Gravel. The Gravels retired in October of 2014 and the Bodé purchased the business from them. The Bodé are Pakenham residents and also own Scoop’s Ice Cream and Carnivic Lodge, a bed and breakfast in Pakenham. Carole says its time to move the business closer to home. “The main thing is we own a building in Pakenham and would no longer need to rent,” she told the West Carleton Review during a Sept. 28 interview in Fitzroy Harbour. “There’s a lot going on in Pakenham. We’re certainly very appreciative of the support we’ve got from the Fitzroy Harbour community. “Dropping by in the summer or getting off the bus after school for a treat. Fitzroy Harbour is one of those places where you know where all the kids are by the location of the bike pile.” The Bodés will close their doors for the season, as they usually do, around the Thanksgiving weekend. When the Fudge Factory reopens its doors in spring, it will be located in Pakenham with “a gorgeous view of the river.”. Along with owning their business, Carole is hopeful the business will grow. She said they close around Thanskgiving each year, be-

She says she is so thankful for the support the business received from the community of West Carleton. cause that seems to be when traffic slows at the Fudge Factory. Carole is hopeful, the business will attract customers closer to Christmas. One thing that won’t be moving to Pakenham is the Fudge Factory’s ice cream business.

Carole says there’s no need, with Scoop’s just around the corner, but she does fear she will miss that aspect of the business. “I won’t be doing ice cream anymore, which is too bad, because I’ve built up a really nice

bicep with all that scooping,” she said. “When I first started working here I put on a pile of weight. I finally had to put the clamp down on ‘quality assurance’ and join a gym.” The Bodés put up a large sign by their Fitzroy Harbour

store informing the community of the impending closure. Carole says the sign has had an added advantage for the community. “That sign has been the greatest traffic calming device I’ve seen in Fitzroy Harbour,”

she said. “People slow right down to read it.” Carole says she has nothing but fond memories of her time in Fitzroy Harbour and wants to thank the community for its support of Penny’s Fudge Factory.

Board OK’s police budget directions, despite criticism JENNIFER MCINTOSH jennifer.mcintosh@metroland.com

Great. Big. Savings. Saving energy is easy

with tips, rebates and instant discounts Don’t miss our Energy Savings Guide in today’s paper!

The Ottawa Police Services Board has approved the 2018 budget review and timetable that will draw $3 million from reserves. The budget, based on a two-per-cent tax increase and 1.3-per-cent increase from the growth in the assessment base, has drawn ire from board members for taking risks with budgets down the road. The $8.5-million budget puts off spending and dips into the reserves, primarily to stay in the line with the two-per-cent tax increase under which Mayor Jim Watson was elected. Without using the reserves, the increase would have likely included a 4.3-per cent increase the police services finance com-

mittee heard on Sept. 11. Among the pressures driving up the costs are $2.1 million to hire 25 new officers and $3 million in overtime. While the plan will keep the police within spending limits for 2018, it could leave them with a spending increase as high as 5.4 per cent in 2019. The draft budget also includes $2 million in efficiencies every year for the next four years. Kanata South Coun. Allan Hubley asked if police had looked at their fleet as a way to save money. “I am seeing a lot of one-time cost-saving measures,” he said at the Sept. 25 police services board meeting. “Have we done a review of the fleet and potential savings?” Debra Frazer, the director general of corporate services,

Police started phasing out the Ford Taurus cruisers last year – opting instead for Sport utility vehicles. Police Chief Charles Bor-

deleau said the vehicle acts as a mobile office for members. “The vehicle needs to be safe and spacious,” he said. The draft budget for the police services will be officially tabled at the November board meeting.

Ottawa police push to recruit new members, boost diversity JENNIFER MCINTOSH jennifer.mcintosh@metroland.com

The Ottawa police force is ramping up efforts to recruit racial minorities and Indigenous officers and women, but they have to compete with other forces, the Police Services Board heard on Sept. 25. The report, titled Go Forward Framework – Diversifying the OPS Sworn Workforce, said there were 460 new sworn members between 2005 and 2012. About 125 of those were women, which is

status quo for the number of women. Racialized groups are on an upward trend according to the numbers, and Indigenous people are on a slight downward trend. Debra Frazer, director general of corporate services for the police, said the downward trend is partly because there are so few Indigenous officers, that any time someone leaves or retires it creates a bigger impact. Police Chief Charles Bordeleau said there’s work to be done, as the force doesn’t yet reflect the

community it serves. Insp. Carl Cartright, head of recruitment for the Ottawa police, said several forces are competing for the same number of recruits. “The OPP is looking for 500 new candidates,” Cartright told the board. “All police agencies are competing for the same candidates, with the same experience and credentials and we hope that makes a good police officer.” The force started identifying diverse candidates and fast tracking them in 2016.

ment. “I don’t think you’re going to see a lot from external candidates,” Frazer said. “We did most of the work in-house.” She added there’s a small amount of consultant work to provide “evidence-based” research. Board member Carl Nicholson, who’s been working on the issue during the tenure of the last four chiefs of police, said staff should tap into existing officers. “We need to ask what attracted them to the service,” he said.

Cartright said the force needs to work on reaching millennials (born between 1980 and 2000), by increasing outreach. But it’s not enough to just recruit, OPS has to work on retention, he said. Frazer said staff will meet with stakeholders and present a finalized report in January 2018. This is the third workforce census the force has done, she said. Kanata South Coun. Allan Hubley said he’s concerned police are spending more money on consultants than actual recruit-

Nicholson said the force needs to be proactive. “Diverse youth are watching TV, and there’s the barrier of the perception of policing,” he said. Beacon Hill-Cyrville Coun. Tim Tierney said he wonders if candidates from low-income families that can’t afford postsecondary education are getting screened out. “We need to ensure we are hiring the best and the brightest,” Bordeleau said. The force is looking to hire 25 new officers in 2018.

West Carleton Electric advances Well water drop-off spots SPECIAL TO THE REVIEW

West Carleton Electric of Fitzroy Harbour has advanced to the finals of the Greater Ottawa Fastball League against the Micksburg Twins. The Electric moved on to the finals by defeating the Ottawa Valley A’s 1-0 in the deciding semi-final game between the two teams on Wednesday, Sept. 27 in Fitzroy Harbour. It was a close game with the outcome really up in the air un-

til the seventh and final inning when Electric pitcher Andy Barber struck out the final A’s batter with a runner on third base, thus preserving the 1-0 victory. Electric had scored the only run of the game in the bottom of the fourth inning. With one out, Jeff Cavanagh got on base thanks to an infield single and an Ottawa throwing error that allowed him to get to second base. Cavanagh was replaced with pinch runner Matt McKay who advanced to third base on a wild pitch. He

then scored when Jon Daley singled up the middle for West Carleton Electric. Andy Barber went all seven innings on the mound for Electric, giving up only one hit and striking out eight. Getting hits for Electric were Kevin Shonfield, Andy Barber, Jeff Barber, Cavanagh, and Daley. Adam Rueckwald took the loss on the mount for the Ottawa Valley A’s. He allowed just five hits while striking out six batters.

100th game for Fury’s Haworth BY JAKE DAVIES jake.davies@metroland.com

In the Ottawa Fury’s short four-year history a lot has happened, and forward Carl Haworth has been witness to it all. On Sunday, Sept. 24, Haworth played in his 100th match for the Fury, a number no other player is close to reaching. His achievement was celebrated by the football club before playing its United Soccer League (USL) league game against Louisville City FC. “It means a lot, especially in North America it’s a pretty unique milestone,” Haworth told Metroland Media while signing autographs on the TD Place pitch following a 1-1 draw against Louisville. “People bounce around from on club to another, year to year. To stay in one place, especially a place like Ottawa, I’ve called this place home for a few years now, I love the fans, I love the organization and it’s a real proud moment for me.” Haworth was born in Southport, England, in 1989, but has since earned his Canadian citizenship. Haworth joined the Fury in 2013 in the team’s final season in the Professional Development League. In 12 appearances, he scored 12 goals.

Haworth then signed his first professional contract on Nov. 19, 2013 with the Fury, which was also the first professional contract the Fury offered in club history. Haworth made his professional debut on April 12, 2014 for the Fury as the club played its first game in the North American Soccer League (NASL). In 2016, Haworth led the Fury in goals (8), assists and shots, and was named the Fury’s top player for that season. In 2017, the Fury moved from the NASL to the USL, and Haworth continued with the team after signing an extension last November. In 2017, Haworth has appeared in 18 matches with 13 starts. Internationally, Haworth was a member of the Canadian Under-23 national team for their Olympic Qualifying Tournament in 2012. Haworth received his first call-up to the Canadian senior team on Nov. 4, 2016 for a friendly game against South Korea. In that time, Haworth has a lot of fond memories. “Definitely scoring the first goal for the Ottawa Fury here at TD Place is a big one for me (against Fort Lauderdale back in the fall season of 2014),” he said. “Making that run in the fall season in 2015 going all the way to the finals was a pretty special moment as well. Getting called up to the men’s national team, that was a big

moment for me as well.” He has been present for all the Fury’s success and miss-steps in its history. “I guess it’s been a difficult first three-and-ahalf, four years for the club,” he said. “Obviously we had some good success with Mark dos Santos over the first couple of years, and we’ve been kind of transitioning since. Paul (Dalglish) came in and brought in a different style of play. It was something that takes time and he probably had a vision for something two or three years down the road, but unfortunately for him, it didn’t pan out. I enjoyed great success under Paul. I owe him a lot for fine-tuning my game and instilling confidence in me and yet to be here and see how the organization has grown over the years is pretty cool.” Manager Julian de Guzman has had the unique opportunity to play alongside Haworth, and now coach him. “He’s becoming an icon for the Fury,” de Guzman said. “He’s accomplished something not many Canadians have done for a Canadian club. For him to achieve this at a professional level, is something to celebrate. I think Carl has had the qualities even to be a part of the national team level, and he’s had that chance too. He’s a huge asset to the team and for him to achieve this, I’ve played with him and now have the opportunity to coach him, see him to continue to grow as a professional, for me, it’s great to see and hopefully many more Canadians can follow in his footsteps.” Longtime teammate, defender Eddie Edward, has played alongside Haworth the last two years and couldn’t be happier for his friend. “Carl is a great person on and off the pitch, and for any player to achieve what he has achieved at

one club is amazing,” Edward said following the Louisville City game. “I think that shows the kind of player he is and the kind of person he is. A club doesn’t keep someone for that long unless they can add something special to the club. We are so happy for him and to see him get involved in the goal in his 100th game is brilliant.”

Talking about Sunday drives and ‘winter camping’

hen I was little my dad used to pile my mom, sister and me into the car and we’d go on a Sunday mystery tour. This involved driving slowly down all the back roads to see where they ended up. If we were lucky, there was an ice cream parlour or a chip stand en route. It was a great way to spend a Sunday afternoon, although I do remember getting car sick a few times. And if anyone gave my sister apple juice before the ride, there would be a few pee stops along the way as well. Now whenever we get stuck behind a slow-moving vehicle, the Farmer says “Sunday driver.” It isn’t always a Sunday when this happens, but I know what he means. Sundays are for taking your time, sightseeing, and seeing where the road takes you. Farm tractors are a common sight on rural county roads.

DIANA FISHER The Accidental Farmwife They are usually pretty good to move over and let people pass, because they are pretty agile and can drive on the roadside halfway into the ditch without tipping over. But this manoeuvre isn’t always possible — particularly on a busy roadway. You don’t want to pass them on the right and end up in the ditch yourself. And you don’t want to pass them on the left when there is oncoming traffic. So you will have to be patient, like the rest of us. And yes, they have every right to be there. You’re in the country. Surrounded by farmland. D’uh. Did you know that tractor drivers often use the same hand signals as cyclists? For tractors that aren’t equipped with electronic turning signals, you will see the driver put a straight arm out the window for a left turn, and a bent arm (fingers pointing to the sky) for a right turn. A bent arm with fingers pointing

down, of course, means they are about to stop. So watch out. They aren’t just wavin’ at ya. Our latest Sunday drive followed a sleepover at our log cabin on the river. The Farmer built this cabin over the last winter and finished it up this summer. We have only used it a few times. My first stay at the cabin with a girlfriend was a warm one, and I was grateful for the log walls that cool things down so you can get a good night’s sleep. We enjoyed a light dinner at a pub in Merrickville, then settled into the cabin for wine and good conversation around some candles. We had intended to build a campfire but the mosquitoes at the river’s edge scared us inside. We had a very sound, peaceful night’s sleep to mark the end of summer. Our most recent sleepover was a whole different story. It now drops down to single digit degrees overnight. We had space heaters plugged in but they didn’t do much good. They kept blowing fuses so we eventually gave up and tucked in for a cold night. Our Norwegian student wore several layers of wool and a knit cap to bed. She said she is accustomed to winter camping. In an igloo. The Farmer and I were snuggled into our slouchy double bed for a cosy night’s sleep when Fergus the Golden Retriever, on his pillow beside us, be-

gan licking the wall. He wasn’t just interested in the chinking between the logs; he was obsessed. Every few minutes there was a cycle of slurps. “Fergus. Go to sleep,” the Farmer pleaded. And then we would hear a groan, followed a few minutes later by dog snoring. One of us would shift our weight and roll into the valley in the middle of the bed, which would bring the other person down on top of them. Giggling ensued. This woke up the dog, who resumed licking the wall. My hands were ice blocks, my nose was running and I could no longer feel my feet. My husband, who is always a raging furnace on his own side of our king-sized bed, was actually being quite stingy with his body heat. He didn’t want to get close to me, for fear of being touched by my ice-cold extremities. I went and got extra blankets and we struggled through the night, eventually falling to sleep just as the sun began to rise. I could hear Mina giggling in her sleep in the next room, so she can obviously still have a good dream when frozen. I just wish the hot flashes that hit me and covered me in sweat in the morning had happened a little earlier in the night. Next time I will bring electric blankets. Email: dianafisher1@gmail.com

Paddler has overcome challenges SPECIAL TO THE REVIEW

Ottawa River Canoe Club athlete Genevieve L’Abbe brought back three medals from this year’s Canada Summer Games, but it was not without having overcome some challenges. There were both physical and schooling challenges, but Genevieve overcame them in achieving her goal of winning multiple medals for Team Ontario at the Canada Summer Games. At these Canada Summer Games, Genevieve, 19, brought home two gold medals and a silver medal. Genevieve teamed up with Lexy Vincent, a member of the Rideau Canoe Club in Ottawa, to win the K2 female 1,000-metre event, setting a personal best time in this race. She and Lexy had trained together this year. Genevieve also won a gold medal in the K4 female 500-metre event, teaming up with fellow kayakers Lucy Pennyfather of Oakville, Hayley Plante of Toronto and August Sibthorpe of Ottawa. Besides her two gold medals, Genevieve also earned a silver medal in the K4 female 200-metre event, teaming up with Lucy Pennyfather, Hayley Plante and Lexy Vincent. But the road to the Canada Summer Games podium was not easy for Genevieve. She was attending a training camp in Florida in February 2016 when she was hit by a car

while riding a bike home from weight training. She suffered a fractured right leg just below the knee. She returned to Canada to train and attend physio, only getting back on the water that April. This set her back, leading to a disappointing outcome at the national team trials and provincial team trials that June. In August 2016, she finished fourth in both the K1 1,000 metres and the K1 500 metres at the national championships. It was really a remarkable result after she had lost a good part of her training year due to the broken right leg. It was in the fall of 2016 that Genevieve enrolled in a bachelor of engineering degree at Carleton University on a scholarship. It proved to be an extremely challenging year for her as she had to keep up her grades in a very intensive engineering program while also training to achieve her goal of making Team Ontario for the 2017 Canada Summer Games. Genevieve, though, successfully completed her first year at Carleton University with high enough marks to retain her scholarship. In addition, she trained hard enough to make Team Ontario for the Canada Summer Games by finishing third in both the K1 200 metres and K1 500 metres at the selection trials. She also competed at the national team trials, achieving her best ever results by winning the C-Final in the women’s K1 200-metre event and finishing third in the B-Final in the

women’s K1 500-metre event. And then she went on to win three medals in the recent Canada Summer Games in Winnipeg. The Summer Games also provided her with valuable experience in her quest to compete for Canada at the 2020 Olympic Games in Tokyo. Genevieve started paddling in 2008 at the Sydenham Lake Canoe Club north of Kingston. In 2012, at the age of 15, Genevieve moved to Ottawa for the summer to seek a higher level of coaching and training in the sport. It was not easy for her to move away from her family and friends, but she found a new family and support network at the Ottawa River Canoe Club. During the fall and winter months, Genevieve went back to Sydenham where she joined her high school rowing team, swim team and track team while continuing her training. Unable to kayak twice a day with her teammates in Ottawa, Genevieve would row in the mornings with her high school team and then do either track and swim team in the afternoon before going home to paddle in the evening at the Sydenham Canoe Club, where she trained on her own. In 2013 at the Canadian national championships, Genevieve finished fourth in the U16 John Curry/Metroland women’s K1 1,000-metre race, her best ever Genevieve L’Abbe of the Ottawa River Canoe result up to that point. Club has the goal of competing in the Olympics.

A total of $14,455 was raised for the Dave Smith Youth Treatment Centre Foundation at the recent first Drop The Shame Get In The Game golf tournament. Held at the Canadian Golf and Country Club west of Stittsville on July 18, the tournament was not only an important fundraiser for the Dave Smith Youth Treatment Centre Foundation but also it was a great day of golf and fun for the participants. The Dave Smith Youth Treatment Centre Foundation raises funds to support the Dave Smith Youth Treatment Centre which is currently in the midst of a $5 million fundraising campaign to support the construction of a new 30-bed youth residential treatment facility off Richardson Side Road in West Carleton. This new facility will see the merging of three existing programs into one centralized location. The new centre will also mean more addiction treatment supports and services will be

available in the area. At this tournament Drop the Shame honoured Senator Vern White with the first DTS (Drop the Shame) Award in recognition of his commitment to publicly advocate for youth addition and mental health services and programs. The tournament was successful thanks to the help and assistance from sponsors, supporters and volunteers. These included the Wesley Clover Foundation, Jeff Greenberg of Royal LePage, City of Ottawa Rideau-Goulbourn Ward Coun. Scott Moffatt, Dakota Auto, Blue Collar Golf, John Baizana Broker link, White Pines Dental, La-Z-Boy, Dan McCurdy Auto, Country Grocer, Lalande Insurance, Kruger &amp; Manor, Myers-Kanata, Fidelity Insurance, Maffet Design, Frisby, Christopher’s Meats, HB Pools, Kardish, Metroland, Canadian Tire (Kemptville) and Krazilchuk.

Asters among last of bright wildflowers BY MICHAEL RUNTZ

Despite the stretch of unseasonably high temperatures that seemed to halt summer’s departure, autumn has arrived. With shortening days and cooler temperatures, most summer wildflowers have vanished. Gone are viper’s bugloss, purple loosestrife, and Queen Anne’s lace. These gave way to smartweeds that adorned ponds, jewelweeds that lined damp shores and goldenrods that clustered in fields. However, even these have waned in recent days. Currently, asters are among the last of the wildflowers to brighten the landscape. A variety of asters grow locally. Some, such as panicled aster, are white. Others, such as Lindley’s aster, are pale blue. My favourite is New England aster, which sports deep rose-purple petals that strikingly set off the flower’s central cluster of bright yellow disk florets. Asters, like other members of their family (Asteraceae), have two types of flowers. Each bloom consists of petal-like ray flowers and a central cluster of disk flowers. Another unusual feature is that insects seldom ravage their leaves. In fact, it is difficult to find even one leaf that sports holes chewed by caterpillars or beetle grubs. Untouched leaves are signs that a plant contains powerful chemical deterrents. Milkweed leaves are laden with bitter-tasting terpenoids, toxins that in exceedingly large doses can cause heart failure. But, a few insects — notably Monarch caterpillars — eat milkweed leaves with impunity, safely storing the nasty chemicals in their bodies, thereby rendering them-

selves unpalatable. But, few insects seem able to cope with the alkaloids that permeate the leaves of asters. Alkaloids keep herbivores away — not only because they taste bad, but also because they interfere with the animal’s ability to digest food. Alkaloids contain nitrogen, and when eaten, they incorporate themselves into enzyme production in the animal’s gut, preventing their host from gleaning nutrition from its food. Aster leaves repel insects, but their blooms do quite the opposite. They attract them, and being among the last wildflowers to bloom, they receive a remarkable amount of attention. In fact, watching a patch of flowering asters on a sunny day is like visiting an airport on a holiday weekend. There is constant motion, with hordes of visitors (including bees, wasps, hornets, flies and butterflies) landing and taking off. The insects are seeking food. Many, like hover flies, come to asters for their sugar-rich nectar. Others, such bumblebees, visit asters for their pollen. It is often difficult to tell hover flies from stinging insects, for many bear remarkably similar appearances — a mimicry that makes animals wishing to avoid the pain associated with eating bees or wasps avoid the harmless flies. With cooler, more seasonable weather finally here, the days of asters and their insect visitors are numbered. When the hard frosts finally arrive, the last of the asters will die, as will most of their insect visitors. In many cases, the eggs or larvae of the flying insects will survive the winter; for bumblebees, wasps and hornets, only the new queens that mated this fall will be around
