West Carleton War Memorial wins city Urban Design Award BY JAKE DAVIES
jake.davies@metroland.com
The West Carleton War Memorial was recognized by the City of Ottawa as one of the best of the best in urban design built within the last two years.

Recipients include Farley Smith and Denis Surveying Ltd., Fineline Perspectives Inc., James Lennox; James B. Lennox and Associates Inc. Landscape Architects, Stuart Hodge; Carp Village BIA - West Carleton War Memorial Committee Chair; Project Owner/Developer and Coun. Eli El-Chantiry. “The City of Ottawa’s Award of Merit at the biennial Urban Planning awards to the West Carleton War Memorial in Carp is a true validation for this project,” West Carleton War Memorial Project/Carp BIA Secretary Peter Maddocks said. “The original design concept was to get away from a bland rectangular space and take full advantage of the unique setting. So, we set about
converting what had become a piece of unused, scrubby grass and traffic island, and which was once the centre of village life complete with a well, into a small city park to honour the fallen from the local area. It was a long process. Raising sufficient funds and gaining the required architectural and planning approvals was, however, well worth the effort.” Maddocks wanted to point
out the support of the community to help make the project a reality. “We owe a great deal to a lot of people,” he said. Maddocks said thousands of hours of work was donated as well as actual currency allowing the project committee to raise enough money for a matching grant from Veteran’s Affairs Canada and beyond. He said many local businesses
and individuals gave of their time and materials when it came time to build the memorial site. “The committee has been very moved by this outpouring of time and money to this project, without which none of what has been achieved would have been possible,” Maddocks said. “While we are extremely proud to have received this Urban Planning award, it is as much a testament to the war memorial itself as it is to the community.” The design of the memorial “centres around the theme of a Canadian everyman soldier reading and re-reading a letter from home amid the detritus of war,” Maddocks said. The sculpted figure of the soldier was conceived and realized by Lanark artist Ron Cowle and his small cadre of artisans. The number 11 figures throughout - the slopes against which the soldier is leaning and the angles of the support base for memorial plaque itself are all at 11 degrees, in recognition of the time and date on which the Armistice in 1918 was signed. “The soldier has become a popular spot for pictures and

we have designed in a small platform to allow people to sit alongside the soldier, whose face is etched with the pain of having seen too much in his young life,” Maddocks said. “At 11 a.m., on the 11th day of the 11th month, the shadow of the flag pole crosses the face of the memorial plaque, honouring 73 local heroes who died and were buried elsewhere in both world wars and in Vietnam.” The War Memorial was officially inaugurated and commemorated on June 18, 2016. “The impact of good urban design can be seen and felt throughout the city – in its buildings, its landscapes and in its public spaces,” Mayor Jim Watson said at the event. “The city is proud to honour these 28 different projects who have helped transformed our cityscape. The creativity and design of these projects showcases urban design excellence in Ottawa.” The West Carleton Memorial will hold its second annual Remembrance Day Ceremony on Saturday, Nov. 11 at 11 a.m. Organizers ask you be in place by 10:45 a.m. and there will be some nearby road closures during the event.

Games used as healing tool for many competitors From front page
She shattered her leg in the early ‘90s but has suffered several injuries over the years. Bush was a navy diver and an athlete, having competed in a national championship in Ringette when she was 20 and played in military championships in hockey and ringette. But injuries took their toll and it led to a downswing in Bush’s mood. She dropped out of soccer and hockey. “It’s a vicious cycle,” she said. “The injuries caused depression due to my inability to train and compete, and then I would put on weight and would feel bad about myself.” But then came the opportunity to apply to the games. Bush was one
of 300 to do so. She was selected as an alternate, and not invited to the first training camp. About 11 people dropped out and Bush was in and on her way for the second training camp. After that, she was given a training guide and about a year to get ready. Originally, she was to compete in swimming, but a shoulder injury caused a doctor to pull her from that team. She would compete in cycling and was named an assistant coach to the wheelchair basketball team. “I had taught spinning and cycled a lot, but had never done a time trial,” Bush said. “I joined the Ottawa Bike Club, did a couple of time trials, anything to get something under my belt.” Bush came in 10th of 15 riders in the road cycling criterium and came in

11th of 18 in the time trial. The wheelchair basketball team had a 1-2 record in pool play and did not advance to the medal round. “We all needed Invictus,” Bush said. “It was amazing to see the human spirit and what people can achieve. When you see a triple amputee rowing a boat with no prosthetics, it’s hard to put in to words. To see the camaraderie. It’s not about the medals. It’s about being with your brothers and sisters in a positive environment. Iran and Iraq had a team for the very first time, we have this similar Esprit d’Corps.” There were 550 competitors from 17 countries and more than 1,800 volunteers to take part in the largest Invictus Games yet. Bush says the games were good for those not in the military as well. “It’s really brought the nation together again in terms of supporting our military,” she said. “But we still have a lot of folks who are injured who need our help.” Bush says she will take her Invictus spirit and inspiration with her for the rest of her life. “They really encourage us to keep it going,” she said. “To help keep people away from that dark place.” So, Bush has signed up for Wounded Warriors Battlefield 2018.

MacLaren calls federal Liberals proposed tax changes ‘dirty blow’ to businesses BY JAKE DAVIES
jake.davies@metroland.com
Carleton-Mississippi Mills MPP Jack MacLaren hosted a town hall meeting last Thursday evening billed as an effort to help stop the tax assault on small businesses and farmers. MacLaren spoke with the West Carleton Review on Oct. 23 to discuss the meeting and his concerns about the ruling party’s taxation changes currently being considered. He said about 50 to 60 people were at the Intercultural Dialogue Institute on Oct. 19 for the meeting. While MacLaren hosted the town hall, Certified Professional Accountant Thomas West and tax consultant Charles Rotenberg provided the expert opinion on how tax changes could impact Ontario families. MacLaren referred to the speakers as “two very knowledgeable accountants.” West has 40 years experience and Rotenburg specializes in agrifinancing. “They painted a pretty scary picture. It was kind of an info meeting on what the federal government
was considering on proposing,” MacLaren said. “Generally, they are pretty major changes. They are going to affect a lot of business people.” MacLaren said currently there are some tax breaks available for businesses as an incentive for people to go in to business. “There is a risk to opening a business,” he said. “Small businesses can, and do, fail. There is a number of businesses that don’t fail, but don’t make much money either.” MacLaren called income sprinkling one of those breaks. Business owners being able to distribute income amongst family members to get taxed at a lower income. “For the Liberals to come along and change that, is kind of like changing the rules of a game half way though,” he said. He called some of these potential changes a “dirty blow” to seniors, small business owners and farmers. MacLaren said proposed changes to the capital gains exemption could cost farmers who want to gift their farms to their children. Farmers would be

MacLaren does admit “it seems like the government is backing away on this.” “These breaks were sensible, well-though out plans to encourage people to take the risk of opening a business,” MacLaren said. “Small business is by far the biggest employer and biggest economic driver for Canada.” While MacLaren
says it looks like the Liberal government is backing away on some of its proposals due to public pressure, the battle is not over. “I think it’s a little pre-mature to get comfortable,” he said. “We haven’t seen anything in the form of draft legislation. We have to keep up the pressure. It’s not good for Canada, it’s not good for Ontario. The government’s job is to help people, not hinder people. It’s a bad idea.”

Underground walking dead BY JAKE DAVIES

In Carp, zombies are always ruining Halloween. But, if you are fearless, quick-thinking and a bit of a problem solver, perhaps you can put an end to the zombie infestation filling the Diefenbunker Museum to the brim with smelly, stumbling yet determined brain eaters. Legend has it on the night of June 21, 1994, a group of scientists gathered in the depths of the Diefenbunker in the hopes of making the latest scientific breakthrough. Blah, blah, blah, fast-forward 23 years later, and now there’s zombies. This Halloween season, the Diefenbunker will once again partner with The Haunted Walk of Ottawa to present, In-

Guests will be led on an interactive adventure with the undead, deep inside the labyrinth that is the Cold War Museum. This unique Halloween experience is a perfect combination of storytelling, interactive challenges, unexpected surprises and
of course, those pesky zombies. “We call it a storytelling adventure,” said Haunted Walks Inc. creative director Jim Bean. “The concept is to drop guests in to the middle of their own zombie movie using the bunker as an amazing setting for our story. While there are plenty
of scares, the experience also has lots of humour and tonguein-cheek fun. Due to the dark, confined spaces and the horde of the undead, the experience is not recommended for children.” Deifenbunker marketing and business development manager Kelly Eyamie says the cold war museum
adds the perfect ambience as a setting. “What I can tell you is that the museum has been invaded by almost 100 zombies over all four floors underground,” she said. “There is only one exit and it is up to our visitors to find the zombie antidote, avoid being eaten and save us all from a zombie apocalypse.” Incident at the Bunker will run on Oct. 28 and 29 and Nov. 4. For more information on the event and to purchase tickets, visit hauntedwalk.com. Tickets start at $18.75 for youth up to 17 and the event lasts about 75 minutes. The tour is not recommended for young children or those who fear enclosed spaces, being underground or being surrounded by a horde of the walking dead.

All Saints golf swings fifth-place OFSAA finish BY JESSICA CUNHA

In its first-ever appearance at OFSAA, the All Saints High School boys golf team swung a fifth-place finish at the provincial championships, held Oct. 11 and Oct. 12 in Kingsville, Ont. S i x t e e n - y e a r- o l d players Hunter McGee, Christian Meliambro, Dylan Pudrycki and Johnny Howie came back from ninth place in the first round to finish fifth out of 20 teams. Coach and teacher Melissa Black said she could not be more proud of her team. “To be part of their journey has just been incredible for me as a coach,� she said, adding she’s been working with some of the players for four years. “They met their goals; they told me, ‘Miss, we’re going to be top five.’ And they were.� The team had a near-perfect practice round, said Black, but a two-hour rain delay combined with gusting winds during the tournament made play difficult. “We could have played better, but the conditions were hard,� said Johnny, a Grade 11 student who’s been

The team played together nearly every day at the Kanata Lakes Golf and Country Club, said Grade 12 student Christian, which helped the team build a rapport and cohesive playing style. Losing graduating students Hunter and Christian will be difficult, said Dylan, but he’s optimistic for next year. “We’ll have high expectations,� said the two-year veteran of the team.

In the City of Ottawa, it’s not easy being a green bin
I
t’s difficult to process the information that only 51 per cent of people in this city are using the green bin system for organic waste. For most of us it seems smart and convenient. But it seems that not everybody feels this way. The obstacles are complicated and the city is trying to figure out how to overcome them. For whatever reason, people need to be persuaded to make changes in how they go about their daily lives. How to persuade people to change their behaviour? One way is to make it easy for them to do so. A good example is our current blue box and black box recycling system. It’s no trouble at all, so we do it. And we feel good about it. We’re recycling! Conversely, if something becomes inconvenient, there is an incentive to give it up. When you couldn’t smoke

A social stigma began to be attached to smokers. People frowned upon guests smoking in their homes. Smokers were banished from public spaces. Gradually, smoking became more trouble than it was worth. Another important element was cost. It got more and more expensive to buy cigarettes. Canadians hate spending money.

cline in drunk driving. Through a process of public education, driving after drinking began to be seen as uncool. Young people out on the town selected designated drivers. Peer pressure was a big influence. As we contemplate the arrival of legal marijuana it is interesting to ponder how these elements — cost, stigma, convenience and public education — will play out. From all the confusion visible at all levels of government, it is a safe bet to conclude that nobody knows. To return to the green bin, there is clear agreement that it is a good plan, but how do we get more people to participate? Stigmatizing those who don’t use it? Terrible idea, but some have actually suggested it — make garbage bags clear so passersby (and the garbage police?) can see what’s inside them. Let’s forget about that one. Cost? There’s some promise here.
While the green bin program costs us nothing (other than what we pay in taxes), there are other costs involved, such as the lined paper bags that we use for the inside and outside compost bins. Those cost money. Could they be made cheaper? Some have suggested allowing plastic bags, which as we know are readily available, to be used as liners. That would be practical, but does the world really need more plastic bags out there? Convenience is not an issue for those who live in houses. It appears that work needs to be done to help those who live in condos and apartments. For the green bin system to work, it should be easy. If it isn’t, making it so is a good place to start.

haps not. Time to start again, with an emphasis on schools. When the kids learn about it, maybe they’ll shame us into doing the right thing.

The Kanata Civic Art Gallery’s signature Gift of Art show and sale will feature hundreds of works by 29 different artists. Now in its 24th year, the event continues to be a highlight in the local art community. “It’s a lovely opportunity for us,” said textile artist and member of the gallery Judi Miller. “We enjoy it and I think the public picks up on that.” The two-day event — which takes place Nov. 18 and 19 — typically sees hundreds of attendees come through the doors to peruse the new art works, talk with the artists and purchase original pieces. “It’s just really nice to see those people year after year,” said Miller, who has been participating in the annual show for around 15 years. “It’s a good experience. People will let you know how they feel — the good, bad and indifferent.” There will be a wide variety of media — from oil, watercolour, encaustic and acrylic paintings, to photography, textile art, sculpture and others — available in numerous styles, from the abstract to

Purchasing original art is very different from buying a mass-produced piece from a box store or even from a commercial gallery, which tend to lean toward “cookie-cutter styles,” said Daniel Morales-Gómez, who’s been showing his work at Gift of Art for about a decade. The Stittsville resident is a self-taught artist who specializes in oil and wa-
ter paintings. A native of Chile, Morales-Gómez often draws his inspiration from his travels, while the Gift of Art show provides the incentive needed to create new pieces. “I feel like I need to have new stuff for the show,” he said. “This one is special in many ways.”
SHOP LOCAL
Bev Ashford, a 10year veteran of the show, said Gift of Art is one of the few times the gallery members all congregate in one space. “I like the artists that are there, getting to talk to people and the positive feedback,” said the Stittsville resident who works with acrylic paints

Member of Parliament Kanata-Carleton Celebrating Diwali This week marked the festival of Diwali, a time for friends and families to come together to share a festive meal, light diyas, and exchange sweets. I had the honour of joining the Network of Indian Professionals at their Gala as well as participating in several events in Ottawa to celebrate this festival of lights. Happy Diwali and Bandi Chhor Divas!
Farewell to Jenna Sudds I want to thank Jenna Sudds for her excellent work in the community as the Executive Director of the Kanata BIA for the past 4 years. Her leadership has strengthened our high-tech sector, benefitting everyone in our community. A great woman who has done amazing work for Kanata is leaving some big shoes to fill. Jenna, you will be missed!
Constituency Youth Council I was thrilled to meet with this year’s edition of the Kanata Youth Council for the first time to discuss the issues that matter most to them. On the Council this year are 25 high-school students in grades 9-12 from Kanata-Carleton who care deeply about their community and are eager to learn about the functions of government. I will be meeting with the Youth Council once a month to have informal, face-to-face conversations and get their perspective on pertinent issues. I look forward to our next meeting!
I had the pleasure of co-hosting an amazing event this week with Senator Marilou McPhedran, MP Elizabeth May, MP Anita Vandenbeld, and many other incredible women. Informal discussions covered issues of women’s rights in conflict areas, sexual violence in war, and the role of women’s rights organizations in peace missions. I spoke to a score of impressive women on the importance of female leadership both in government and in our daily lives. Women are vital to conversations on the issues of peace and security, bringing forth a range of views and experiences. I was extremely humbled to speak beside such incredible leaders, role models, and friends.
“Coffee with Karen” – 26 October I will be hosting an informal discussion at the Café Luna, 329 March Road, today, Thursday 26 October from 7 – 9 pm. I will be joined by my colleague Omar Alghabra, Parliamentary Secretary to the Minister of Foreign Affairs (Consular Affairs). Please join us for this no-cost event for informal discussion on a broad range of issues, including foreign affairs!
Town Hall in November Our next “Let’s Talk” event will take place on Thursday, 16 November at the Kanata Recreation Centre (Hall A). I look forward to meeting and hearing from constituents on those issues of most importance to the community. Details will be provided shortly.
Working for and Representing Kanata-Carleton It is such an honour and privilege to serve as your Member of Parliament and I look forward to meeting and working with you all.

This team of dedicated volunteers deliver donations weekly throughout the growing season and provide a range of produce to over 70 families. Saturday’s clean up day saw the group harvesting the last of the season’s bounty of carrots, peppers, beets, tomatoes and kale for one final delivery to the WCFAC this week. The Neighbourhood Tomato is also very grateful for all the ongoing community support it has received through the Anglican Parish of Huntley, The Carp Garden Centre, Pipes Plumbing and most recently the contribution of the Campeau branch of the Royal Bank of Canada. Branch Manager Faye Potter and her team of volunteers helped launch the garden season and gifted the garden with a generous donation of $1000. Donations such as this one will go towards tools, soil, mulch, fertilizer as well as plants and seeds for the collaborative gardens. Garden co-ordinator Michelle Rehkopf says initiatives such as this are so important in community development. The mission of the Neighbourhood Tomato is Growing Food, Building Community and when we help something grow, we grow ourselves. Interested volunteers and gardeners wishing to reserve a plot for next season can email The Neighbourhood Tomato West Carlton at michellerehkopf@ rogers.com.

year, please come for the fun knowing that your contributions also help protect the land we love, not only for our greatgreat-grandchildren but also for all the plants and animals that call it home.

Protecting Freedom of Speech This week and last week I voted against Bill 163, also known as the ‘bubble zone’ legislation. And I want to take time to explain why I was the only MPP in the legislature to vote against this legislation before it passed. Bill 168 will create a 150 metre ‘no go zone’ around abortion clinics in Ontario which will prevent pro-life activists from standing near the clinics or engaging with people entering them. This is supposedly to stop harassment of people entering the premise, something that is already illegal. This bill violates two fundamental rights we as Canadians have under our constitution. Those rights are the freedom of speech, and public assembly. As an elected representative of the people it would be extremely unwise of me to vote for a bill that I fundamentally believe violates our constitutional rights. When government takes away our fundamental freedoms we lead ourselves down the path towards tyranny. These freedoms have been fought for on battlefields and debated in parliaments for centuries. Canada’s basic constitutional rights date back 800 years to the Magna Carta and have advanced through the centuries to the modern day, all-the-while never abandoning their fundamental foundations.

Fines levied in Fitzroy park SPECIAL TO THE REVIEW
Two Quebec men have been fined a total of $2,400 for catching and keeping bass during the closed season, snagging bass and fishing without licences. Luis Alberto Quintero Rojas and Duvan Hernandez, both of Gatineau, pleaded guilty and were each fined $250 for fishing without a licence, $250 for snagging bass and $700 for keeping bass during the closed season. Additionally, they are both banned from fishing in Ontario
for one year and their fishing equipment was forfeited to the Crown. Court heard that on May 15, a conservation officer patrolling along the Carp River in Fitzroy Provincial Park observed Quintero Rojas and Hernandez catching and keeping bass. Further investigation revealed that both of them were using large bare treble hooks and large sinkers for snagging fish. They were in possession of 13 bass each. Neither Quintero Rojas nor
Awesome autumn bash postponed
Hernandez had a valid fishing licence. The open season for bass did not start until June 17. Justice of the Peace Richard Sculthorpe heard the case in the Ontario Court of Justice, Ottawa, on Oct. 10.

City looking to boost green bin use BY JENNIFER MCINTOSH
jennifer.mcintosh@metroland.com
The Why and How of Events “How are you?” If you are in business, a working parent (actually, any kind of parent) or an active community leader then I bet your answer is . . . BUSY!!! And even if it’s all good, it is still busy. And so you must be discriminating in how you set your priorities and spend your time. Working smarter is currently being touted as the way to be more productive and effective in a fast paced and highly competitive world. But what does “working smarter” really mean? Particularly when our work/life environment changes so radically and quickly. Technology and social media have completely morphed how we interact with others, build relationships and do business. The art of networking was once straight forward and commonly held as the most effective way of doing business. So attending events was a given. Today, we have so much to choose from in terms of events and marketing it can be overwhelming. Most people in business today could be away from home at a business or community event every day of the week. Most would agree, that is too much. The key is to ensure that the events we choose and the time we spend can produce the outcomes we want. And then we must make the most of each of these opportunities. The West Ottawa Board of Trade mission is to create prosperity. We do that in two main ways; advocating on behalf of the business community and offering relevant services to businesses so they will grow through connecting, learning, promoting and saving money. A part of our strategy for helping businesses, is to host events throughout the year. Our annual calendar is diverse and includes keynotes from local leaders, workshops with expert trainers, all candidates meetings, casual networking events and a few marquee events. In each event we create, we seek to provide multiple benefits for every size and sector of business. Why? Although we continually innovate to serve our members better we also believe in building on existing strengths. And one of those key advantages is collaboration. In a world where individuals, businesses and communities are becoming more disconnected, we strive to bring leaders and business people together for the purpose of optimizing our resources and creating synergy so that we may all thrive. How can our businesses make the most of these events and opportunities? Approach relationship building in a strategic way. Plan the events and meetings you and your team will attend and identify what your goals are for each event as well as your long term goals. We are living in a time of constant information, endless options and expectations for instant results. However, many successful business people understand the best results often come from a long term commitment and building a deep network of trust relationships. The many new and exciting opportunities for business and economic development through technology and globalization are highly effective. One way of doing things should not be abandoned for the other. Rather marry new technologies with face to face interactions to achieve the full potential of your business, your team and yourself as a leader. We invite to check out your local Chamber of Commerce to develop your skills, make connections and grow your business. We hope to see you soon!
Cheers to your success, Sueling Sueling Ching | CEO | West Ottawa Board of Trade www.westottawabot.com
The West Ottawa Board of Trade is a nonprofit, nonpartisan business association, independently driven and funded by business members. Our mission is to create a prosperous environment in which businesses and individuals thrive through economic development and providing value added services. We are advocates. We are change makers.

There’s definitely room for improvement when it comes to use of the city’s green bin program, said environment and climate committee chair Coun. David Chernushenko, but he doesn’t want to simply throw money at the problem. This past year, the city spent $350,000 on promotion of the program, but the participation numbers seem stuck, according to a presentation made to the committee on Oct. 17. “What we’ve been doing the last few years isn’t getting us any further,” Chernushenko said, adding changes are coming to the Waste Free Ontario Act, which governs garbage collection. The city’s also working out additional issues with the contentious Orgaworld contract
through an arbitrator. Chernushenko said he’s heard the new owner of Orgaworld is anxious to iron out the details, but says he’s surprised there’s still so much on the table three years after the city disputed the contract. “It’s better to take the next year to really figure out what the obstacles are (to use of the green bin) before we assign a budget,” the Capital Ward councillor said. Under the city’s 20-year contract with Orgaworld, the city pays to process a minimum of 80,000 tonnes of organic waste. But the city has never reached that tonnage since the green bin program began in 2010. In 2016, Ottawa’s diversion rate was 44 per cent, one of the lowest in the province. Only about half of eligible households used the green bin last year.
The staff report says that 68,000 homes are signed on to the city’s “recollect” feature, which pushes out reminders of which week corresponds with the type of collection – Chernushenko said that’s roughly a quarter of eligible households. Duncan Bury, a member of Waste Watch Ottawa, said there’s no silver bullet. Some ideas from other municipalities are as simple as clear garbage bags. Councillors around the table at the Oct. 17 seemed to generally agree that the major problem is the “yuck factor.” Collecting compostables can be a grimy mess and there’s the risk of maggots. That, coupled with the inability to put plastics in the bins – per the Orgaworld contract – has made some people hesitant. Kevin Wylie, the general man-
ager of public works, said the uptake on the city’s plastic and cardboard recycling programs is really good. He also said there’s a robust education program in place aimed at getting people to use the green bins. “It’s a complex issue and there are contracts in place,” Wylie said of the problem. College Ward Coun. Rick Chiarelli said he wonders if the communications strategy needs tweaking. “What’s our goal?” he asked. “Do we want people to know why using it is a good thing, or jump on the bandwagon.” Chernushenko said with more study of the obstacles, council will be able to get at the heart of why there’s so little uptake. “We want people to want to do it,” he said. “Not do it because they drank the Kool-Aid.”
Annual bylaw review shows parking infractions are up BY JENNIFER MCINTOSH
jennifer.mcintosh@metroland.com
Parking infractions and smoke-free Ottawa violations have increased, says an annual report by bylaw services presented to the city’s community and protective services committee on Oct. 19. There were 1,438 additional parking infractions in 2016 than the previous year said the report, bringing that year’s total to 32,019. Violations under the Smoke Free Ottawa bylaw increased by 40 to a total of 402. As the end of 2017 approaches, bylaw chief Roger Chapman outlined the work his staff has been doing. Staff review the noise and property stan-
dards bylaw and have been doing spot checks on private transportation companies like Uber following the changes to the city’s vehicle for hire bylaw. Uber vehicles are prohibited from getting customers through street hailing — the explicit domain of the traditional cab companies. River Coun. Riley Brockington asked about the level of compliance. Chapman declined to get into specifics about enforcement — citing concerns about bylaw officers’ safety — but said compliance is high. “It’s not 100 per cent, but it’s high,” he said. In addition to keeping an eye on hired vehicles, bylaw has had to increase their service
hours on the weekends to cover noise complaints after police decided they would no longer respond. FUTURE WORK Brockington questioned what changes to the federal legislation around marijuana will mean for bylaw. Chapman said emergency services general manager Anthony Di Monte is working out a plan of action. Right now, a bylaw complaint about a dispensary only drives an investigation into whether or not the business owner has a retail licence. “It doesn’t matter what the retailer is selling from a bylaw perspective,” he said. Di Monte said city staff is confident with the province-led, LCBO style model.

Every year, we gather around at my aunt’s place to celebrate thanksgiving. The whole family comes together and shares a meal, each bringing their speciality; pies, stuffing, ham, bread or beverages. It is one of those moments where we are all together. We honour our loves ones who passed; we laugh, we cry, we remember and most of all, we just talk. The volume sometimes so loud, you cannot hear anything, but that is the music of family. I am not sure how we started speaking about it, but we ended up talking about final wishes. Some have already made their arrangements, some wondering what to do, while the others just quietly listened because they had never thought about it before. Yet, it seemed like such a normal conversation for such a sombre topic. As we shared our wishes, and it came to my own parents, I finally asked them what they wanted. It seemed like for two of the most special people in my life, they did not want us to do very much. It felt odd to me but I did not want to press it. I will take the time to speak to them about it later, encourage them to make their pre-arrangements. Maybe I will make my arrangements at the same time; it could be something we share together. Family has taught me that we need to celebrate the memories and enjoy being together

Mayor’s Report
MUTUAL RESPECT BRINGS UNPRECEDENTED LABOUR PEACE By: Mayor Jim Watson The City of Ottawa employs over 17,000 people in very different fields of work. From providing front line services in City Service Centres or at the Library, to maintaining our roads and greenspace, to driving thousands of commuters to work each day, to delivering parks and recreation programming to tens of thousands of families and children, to keeping us safe and secure thanks to the dedicated work of our first responders, our employees are the backbone of the city.

CPO focuses on violence against women BY JEN MCINTOSH
jennifer.mcintosh@ metroland.com
already spoken with Kitchissippi Coun. Jeff Leiper. Some of the network’s work is to educate people about what to do at big events, such as concerts, when they think an assault is taking place. Project Soundcheck is one of the long-term projects under this umbrella.
It started in 2015, and aims to get people to take responsibility for what’s happening around them. CPO committee chair Diane Deans said education is the key to changing attitudes. “It has to start at a young age to end violence against women,” she said. Travis Wing, a
teacher at Longfields Davidson Heights Secondary School, spoke to the committee about his work with the project Man Up. The initiative, which is active in 25 schools in the Ottawa area, aims to change young men’s attitudes about women and relationships. “It’s amazing what
the students can do at a grassroots level,” he said. Right now, the work is all volunteerbased, with little to no financial support from the school board. Last year, CPO invested $30,600 in programs for youth and those aimed at ending violence against women.
Crime Prevention Ottawa (CPO) is working with stakeholders to end violence against women. The advocacy group provided its annual report at the city’s community and protective services committee on Oct. 19. Last year the group focused on gangs. This year the focus is violence against women — specifically the prevention of sexual assault. One of the key initiatives is working with the city’s special event advisory team, to build sex assault Researchers from Queen’s University, Kingston, need volunteers for a new fibromyalgia pain treatment study. prevention into the city’s process You must have fibromyalgia and no other serious medical conditions.

The incredible services the city delivers are made possible by our hard working and dedicated employees. In fact, for many city staff, their first job was a summer internship or an entry level job and they remained with the city, moving through the ranks and departments and retiring some decades later after long, meaning and successful careers. I am proud that the City is enjoying a period of unprecedented labour peace. Although things can never be perfect, many residents remember the bitter 51 day transit strike in 2008-2009 that paralyzed the city. Today, our labour relations are based on mutual respect. In March 2012, the City and the Amalgamated Transit Union, Local 279 (ATU 279) agreed to terms for a four-year renewal of their collective agreement. This was the first time in more than 20 years that the City and ATU 279 had concluded a tentative agreement prior to the expiry of their contract. This understanding was repeated in March 2016, when the two sides again reached agreement on a four-year deal. More recently, the City has concluded a four-year collective agreement renewal with its largest bargaining agent, the Canadian Union of Public Employees, Local 503 (CUPE 503). With these, the City has long-term collective agreements in place for more than 80% of its unionized workforce, to at least April 2020. Ottawa would not be the great city it is today without the significant contributions of city staff and their dedication to public service. But Ottawa is not just a great place to live, it’s also a great place to work. Throughout the years, the City of Ottawa has been the recipient of numerous Employment, Diversity and Inclusion Awards. For the past 6 years, Ottawa was named in the list of Canada’s Best Diversity Employers and also made the National Capital Region’s Top Employers ranking. These awards speak for themselves, but they would not have been made possible without the strong partnership the City shares with our employee groups and unions. With interest arbitration built into many of its collective agreements as the means through which collective bargaining impasses are resolved, the city can ensure that even if two sides are not able to come to agreement on all of the terms for a new collective agreement, residents do not have to endure the loss of the municipal services they depend on, as a result of either a strike or lockout. It is a privilege to live and work in a city of dedicated residents and city staff, whose passion, dedication and love for Ottawa has truly made it an amazing place to work, live and play.

Help a pet and a person at the SafePet gala
T
his week this column is a bit different in tone and content. I’ve been in a women’s shelter before. As a client; not a journalist. It’s not a time of my life that I care to revisit, even in memories. I had family to turn to, but I didn’t want to get them involved. I needed a place to stay while I figured out the next steps of my life, free from physical or mental harm and emotional manipulation. But my life was never in danger. That isn’t the case for many women fleeing violence in their homes. A few years ago, my eldest daughter began offering her graphic design services to a local charity, SafePet Ottawa. Eventually she became a member of the board, and an organizer of their first annual benefit gala. It was at the 2016 Mas-
DIANA FISHER The Accidental Farmwife querade Ball for SafePet Ottawa that I learned the chilling reason for their existence. Statistics show that across the province of Ontario, nearly half (48 per cent) of women who should be leaving abusive domestic situations choose to stay … because of their pets. The reason is simple. They are afraid of what will happen to their beloved dog, cat or other pet if it is left behind in the hands of their abuser. Violence Against Women shelters are not equipped to house women with pets. This is where SafePet Ottawa comes in.

SafePet will foster an animal for a woman entering a shelter, so that is one less thing she has to worry about while trying to regain control of her life. In many cases that dog or cat is far more than a pet to that woman. The animal has provided comfort, companionship and sometimes even protection for her. In many cases she has been isolated from family and friends, either by her abuser’s control on her life, or by her own choice as she tries to handle things privately, on her own. Her pet has been her confi-
dante when she felt totally alone in the world. She can’t leave it behind while she runs for her life. If she does, she knows there is a very good chance the animal will be neglected or harmed by her abuser. This weekend, my family and friends are joining me at the second annual Gin and Jazz benefit for SafePet Ottawa. Think The Great Gatsby. Bonnie and Clyde. The secret gin joints during prohibition. This is going to be fun. It is Halloween weekend, so we have even more reason to dress up. While we are dining, dancing and enjoying live entertainment with our host Wendy Daniels, we will be learning more about this worthy cause. I invite you to
join us, by visiting the Facebook page or SafePet Ottawa website and buying your tickets. As I said earlier, this isn’t your typical Accidental Farmwife column. But I write about my life, and I share what is important to me. I believe no one should feel forced to remain in a situation that is no longer safe for them. If I can help by supporting a cause that makes it easier for an abused woman to choose a new path, I will do so. If you can’t join us at the ball, I’m sorry because you are going to miss a really good time. But I realize it’s a busy time of year. You can also just visit the SafePet Ottawa website and make a donation. Read about the work they do and share
their website with your friends and family. The more people who know about SafePet, the more lives they can change. There is one more way you can help. SafePet Ottawa can’t help women fleeing violence without the support of their fosters. Do you have the time and space to host a pet for a few weeks until someone gets back on their feet? You will be doing far more than making life easier for a woman in need. You may be saving her life, the life of her pet, and maybe even the lives of her children. Now if that thought doesn’t prompt someone to action, I don’t know what will. See you at the speakeasy.

GAME CHANGERS
for YOUTH
Your monthly update on the Ottawa Senators Foundation news! Project Step funding provides vulnerable moms with a listening ear The Ottawa Senators Foundation gives kids an opportunity to play sports, pursue a postsecondary education and have access to mental and physical healthcare services when they need them most.
An example of the impact the Ottawa Senators Foundation is having can be found at Ottawa’s Youville Centre. A facility that gives adolescent mothers and their babies a chance for a brighter future through education, social support and parenting instruction.

Fortunately, a program called Project Step (project-step.ca) – funded through the Ottawa Senators Foundation – was able to lend a helping hand. Project Step (which stands for substance abuse, treatment, education and prevention) is the foundation’s biggest investment to date – with a $1-million investment dedicated to tackling youth addictions over 10 years.
In the midst of a building painted a sensible beige, sits a small but extraordinary office that’s painted cotton-candy pink – within these pink walls, Jenny Strange offers individual counselling sessions to the centre’s clients – many of whom have been exposed to the troubles of substance abuse. “With Project Step funded by “It’s very rare to see someone Sens foundation, I’m able to with just substance abuse – be here full time – I’m really there’s always a problem be- indebted to them,� enthuses hind the problem,� explains Jenny. “Working with youth is Jenny. “Many of the girls my passion, and our latest outcoming in struggle with some come assessments for mental mental health issues – primar- health and addictions show that ily anxiety or depression – and having in-house counselling for I would say the majority have this clientele really works.� experienced trauma,� explains Thanks to Project Step, Jenny Jenny. “That could be trauma says she’s now able to see up from a sexual assault, physical to 25 clients in a week – which abuse, emotional abuse, finan- means being able to offer criticial abuse – you name it.� cal support on an ongoing baJenny is one of two counsellors at Youville Centre; both counsellors are registered psychotherapists with trauma certification.

For some animals, showing age is a good thing BY MICHAEL RUNTZ
Nature’s Way
It seems our species is obsessed with aging. But not in the view that we look forward to it, rather in how we can avoid it. Plastic surgeons, beauticians, nutritionists, and others have become rich because of our desire to maintain a youthful appearance. Fortunately our wild neighbours have far more serious considerations to occupy their time. Their goals are straightforward: to find sufficient food, survive harsh environmental conditions, escape danger, and pass on their genes. None appear to have the desire and certainly the ability to retain their youthful appearance. While we try to hide our age,
some animals want to reveal it. Cedar waxwings, a rather common bird that loves mountainash berries and other fruit, has name-giving, red adornments on a few of its wing feathers. But only those birds that are two years old or older sport them. Ring-billed gulls, those white rascals that pester people at chip wagons, take three years to gain their immaculate white plumage and black wing tips with white pearls. Bull moose do not display impressive antlers in their first year of life; most take at least six years before their headgear brings gasps of admiration from human viewers. So why do some animals go through a change in appearance to reflect their age? The reason involves their chances of reproducing. Many female animals prefer a mate who is mature rather than young. Older means that the individual was able to survive for more than one year, being able to find adequate food and survive environmental stresses during that time. Young males, especially those only one year old, haven’t proven themselves to be survivors and may well possess inferior genetic material that would be passed on to the female’s young. While moose may take up to 7 years to reveal their peak of maturity to discriminating females, most birds don’t live long and so maturity for them comes at an earlier age. One of our longest-lived birds is the Bald Eagle, which on aver-
age lives 20 years, with 38 years apparently being the record. This majestic bird usually does not acquire its contrasting white head and tail, and dark brown (nearly black) body plumage until its fifth year. It starts off with a blotchy brown and white plumage, and goes through a series of changes until its fourth year, when a white head and tail with dusky tones appear. In earlier plumages, young bald eagles are often mistaken for golden eagles, which are rare visitors to our area from mid-November until late winter. There is little size difference between the two, so the best way
to tell them apart involves the golden nape of a golden eagle, as well is its smaller head and bill (half that of a bald eagle) and its habit of soaring on tilted wings (a dihedral) like a turkey vulture (balds soar on flat wings). If for some animals, baldness is a sign of maturity, perhaps there is hope for me yet! I will be speaking along with Laurie Dougherty about Charles Macnamara and local nature at the Macnamara Field Naturalists’ Club banquet on Nov. 4.

Robert “Bobbie” Basil Mantil
Gone to be with his family and friends, Bobbie passed away shortly after his 90th birthday on Thursday, October 12, 2017. Survived by his sisters Mary Carroll (late Angus) and Betty Carroll (late Gerald). Predeceased by his father and mother Robert and Rose (nee Grace), and by brothers Jackie (late Marian), Raymond, Bill (Corky), and his sisters Grace O’Keefe (late Angus), and Margaret. Bobbie will be dearly missed by his nieces and nephews. A farmer all his life, he tended to his cattle and his beloved dogs. He enjoyed going to the local auction sales and always came home with a box of “trinkets”. Bobbie could be found down in his workshop, working on one of his many projects. Right up until his final days, he still had his sense of humour, which kept the nurses on their toes. The family would like to thank the amazing nurses and staff at the Rosamond Wing of the Almonte General Hospital for their kindness and compassion towards Bobbie. Family and friends may call at the Carp Chapel of Tubman Funeral Homes 115 Rivington St., Carp, ON on Sunday, October 15th, 2017 from 2-4 pm and 7-9 pm. A Funeral Mass will be held at St. Michael’s Roman Catholic Church, Corkery, on Monday, October 16th, 2017 at 11 am. Burial at the Parish Cemetery. For those who wish, memorial donations to the Rosamond Wing at the Almonte General Hospital would be appreciated. BIRTHDAY

Marguirite expected to win Halloween contest with store-bought effort
M
other said it was just because I was excited. Emerson said I wasn’t called ‘Nervous Nellie’ for nothing. Halloween had rolled around, and I was in a state. I wanted to go as a princess, but my chances of coming up with an elaborate costume such as a princess would wear, were pretty slim. The talk at the Northcote School was that bad Marguirite had a store-bought costume, and was having her hair done at Ducharme’s Beauty Parlour. She hinted she even had silver shoes and something with real diamonds in it for her hair. And here I was, destined to wear whatever Mother could throw together from the clothes already being worn to school, or doing chores, or some that long ago should have seen the rag bag. Audrey refused to wear anything that had come within 20 feet of the cow byre, saying it didn’t matter how much of Mother’s cologne she put on, FOR SALE
FOR SALE
MARY COOK Memories you could still smell cow! As happened every Halloween, the school was decorated, parents brought enough lunch to feed all of Renfrew County, and someone was put in charge of a program. The minister from the United Church was always the judge of the best, or most unusual costume, and fair to a fault, he made sure the winner wasn’t a member of the church. Which Cecil said was grossly unfair. His family were devout Uniteds. Those who couldn’t afford store-bought masks, had their faces smeared with stove black, or the soot from inside the FOR SALE
FOR SALE
coal oil lamp. By the time the date rolled around, of course, the cold weather had set in, which meant underneath whatever we were wearing was a pile of long underwear and a couple of sweaters. Often before the school party started, neighbour children would stop at farms along the way for a handout of homemade candy, or if they were lucky, a box of cracker jacks, which cost a whole nickle at Briscoe’s General Store. Mother laid out all the things she thought we five children could choose from to wear as costumes. Mostly, it was old overalls, windbreakers that had seen better days, and an assortment of straw hats that should have been thrown out long ago. Audrey wouldn’t have anything to do with a thing on the bed! Instead she put on a silk dress that had come in the handme-down box from Aunt Lizzie, and of course was much too big for her. FOR SALE
FOR SALE
She tied a silk scarf around the waist, and vanished into Mother and Father’s bedroom where Mother kept what little makeup she wore. Audrey came out looking like she belonged in one of those sideshows from the Renfrew Fair, where children weren’t allowed, and any husband worth his salt ignored. I thought she was gorgeous. It didn’t take long for the boys from the Barr Side road to spot her, and I was amazed at the change in my sister, all because of a silk dress that come in the hand-me-down box from Regina! There was Marguirite, with her store-bought costume, the silver shoes she raved about, and her hair done up high on her head, but I couldn’t see anything that looked like a diamond anywhere. There were games, bobbing for apples, musical chairs, and fiddle music, and the school heated up like a night in July all because of the many bodies crammed into the one room. Finally, the United Church Minister FOR SALE
FOR SALE
clapped his hands together, quieting everyone down, and said he had chosen a winner. Marguirite got out of her chair, ready to bolt up to the front of the room for the prize, so sure was she her name would be called. The minister made a long speech, just as if he were preaching a sermon, and then announced that Audrey Haneman was the winner! Everyone clapped, Audrey turned bright red, Marguirite started to cry, and I was so happy I almost wet my pants. Thank goodness there was no school the next day, because as hard as she scrubbed, Audrey wasn’t able to get rid of all the makeup. I thought she should leave it on for Church. Mother thought differently. Emerson said the prize Audrey got wasn’t worth the effort she went to. I thought it was wonderful! It was a bag of maple leaf cookies from Briscoe’s General Store! No doubt donated by Mr. Briscoe himself. We cleaned them out on the way home from the Northcote School. FOR SALE

Ottawa museums membership rates on the rise BY MICHELLE NASH BAKER michelle.nash@metroland.com
After the countdown to Halloween, Clinton Cowen’s family is marking off the days until Nov. 17. That is the day the Cowen family has been waiting for since the fall of 2014 when the Canada Science and
Technology Museum closed its doors due to mould. “We are counting down the days, we are really excited about the opening here,” Cowen, an Alta Vista resident said. In fact, he added, the entire Alta Vista community, which thinks of the museum as its own, is also counting
DEVELOPMENT APPLICATIONS / AMENDMENTS UNDER THE PLANNING ACT NOTICE OF AGRICULTURE AND RURAL AFFAIRS COMMITTEE MEETING Thursday, November 2, 2017 – 10 a.m. The item listed below, in addition to any other items previously scheduled, will be considered at this meeting, which will be held at the Chamber, Ben Franklin Place, 101 Centrepointe Drive, Ontario. To see any change to this meeting agenda, please go to Ottawa.ca. Zoning – Part of 3315 Shea Road 613-580-2424, ext. 16481 – Sean.Moore@ottawa.ca Zoning – 2980 Colonial Road 613-580-2424, ext. 12681 – Natalie.Persaud@ottawa.ca Zoning – 8165 and Part of 8089 Franktown Road 613-580-2424, ext. 12681 – Natalie.Persaud@ottawa.ca

down to the opening. “Its always been a very cool museum and popular for the children,” he said. “We would go there, especially in the winters, it would be a neighbourhood hangout for Alta Vista — it’s a positive space for everyone.” Opening day however, comes as bittersweet. “A nearly 40 per cent increase on membership fees is a bold ask,” Cowen says, referring to an email he received as a museum membership holder. “The concern is there may be some that can meet the ask, but there may be more that can’t.” Coinciding with the museum’s opening, will be a hike in membership fees — a family membership for two adults and up to three children is currently $90 for one year will go up 39 per cent, to $125. An individual membership fee will rise from $36 to $62. Members have the opportunity to renew now at the current rate. Buying a membership gives members unlimited access to all three museums, as well as access to more than 330 museums and science centres across Canada and
around the world. The hike, Cowen says, better be worth it. “Its been a much missed space, but the increase is quite a surprise,” he said, adding some in the community noted that if their gym membership were to rise at the same rate, they would be hesitant to renew. But many area residents have said they will renew, despite the hike. Admission fees at the Canada Agriculture and Food Museum are also set to rise, with a different cost structure based on the time of year. From November to February, the cost will remain as it is now, $10 for adults, $8 for seniors, $8 for youth and daily family passes are $26. From March to October, that cost will rise to $12 for adults, $10 for youth and seniors and $33 for a family pass. Ingenium, the corporation which manages three museums in the city — The Canada Agriculture and Food Museum, Canada Aviation and Space Museum and the Canada Science and Technology Museum — said the new fee structure is in line with the corporation ensuring programming and exhibitions are adequately supported. All three museums provide
opportunities for free access, said Melissa Gruber, spokesperson for the museum. There is free entrance daily from 4 to 5 p.m. as well as free family passes available through public libraries. “Our museums’ fees have not seen an increase in over three years. The last time membership prices increased was in 2010,” Gruber said. Gruber said a third-party analysis was completed prior to the decision to raise the rates. “The new admission fee structure remains competitive and accessible when compared to other national museums in the National Capital Region,” Gruber said. Currently, Gruber added, the museum has 6,000 active memberships, which represents approximately 25,000 people. “We are confident this number will continue as we reopen of the Canada Science and Technology Museum,” Gruber said. After the museum was abruptly closed after mould was found due to a leaky roof, the museum began massive renovations, as well has designed a new archives building and front playground The $80-million overhaul
— $25 million to $30 million of which will pay for new exhibits — will feature six main galleries and a new 930-square-metre temporary gallery for exhibitions in the 7,400-square-metre space. Once open, the museum will have 11 exhibitions, which will include the visitorfavourite Crazy Kitchen and Steam: A world in Motion — where the steam engines will be set up. Cowen said he is looking forward to watching his youngest walk through the Crazy Kitchen — is it will be their first time. Cowen said throughout the closure, the museum has remained a community partner with Alta Vista, attending the neighbourhood’s annual events. Gruber said the travelling exhibition “Game Changers” will be on display for the opening. The exhibition looks at what shapes a video game player’s experience and explores how innovations have transformed the way people play and interact with computer technology. The exhibit will give visitors eight and older the opportunity to “live” the video game evolution. There will be 15 video games to play and over 120 video games to explore.

THIS WEEK’S PUZZLE ANSWERS IN NEXT WEEKS ISSUE.
sudoku
n i a r B e a s e rs
horoscopes
HERE’S HOW IT WORKS: Sudoku puzzles are formatted as a 9x9 grid, broken down into nine 3x3 boxes. To solve a sudoku, the numbers 1 through 9 must fill each row, column and box. Each number can appear only once in each row, column and box. You can figure out the order in which the numbers will appear by using the numeric clues already provided in the boxes. The more numbers you name, the easier it gets to solve the puzzle!
