Results split for councillors audits No legal proceedings for El-Chantiry, Taylor considers judicial review Jennifer McIntosh

jennifer.mcintosh@metroland.com

In the case of two Ottawa councillors whose 2014 election campaign filings were under review, the results were split.

The election audit committee ruled on Dec. 13 that Bay Coun.

Mark Taylor was in contravention of the Municipal Election Act and voted in favour of initiating legal proceedings.

West Carleton-March Coun.

Eli El-Chantiry’s 2014 election campaign filings were also audited – based on an application by Nepean resident Patrick Ready.

For El-Chantiry, whose campaign expenses were under the microscope for discrepancies in the valuation of old campaign materials and returned corporate donations, the process is over.

Protestors show up at TransCanada pipeline safety meeting in Carp

jessica.cunha@metroland.com

Protestors from Ecology Ottawa turned up at a TransCanada Energy East Pipeline safety open house in Carp on Dec. 9.

Mike Fletcher, a member of the group, said they were there to educate people on why the oil pipeline – which would travel from the Prairies through Ontario, skirting West Carleton on its way to the Maritimes – is a poor idea.

“Our biggest (concerns) are local. There’s a lot of reasons in our locality not to have a pipeline,” said Fletcher.

“In West Carleton, a lot of people rely on the Oxford aquifer. It’s very porous the aquifer, so if something goes wrong at the top it’s going to be in the aquifer that people are using for drinking water

about their concerns and receive answers to any questions on pipeline safety. The meeting in Carp was held at the Agricultural Hall.

“It’s an opportunity to really have a focused session on safety issues,” said Tim Duboyce, spokesman for TransCanada.

He said he understands some people are opposed to the pipeline for a variety of reasons, but that’s the point of

the open houses, to provide information.

Oil is a necessity – used to keep cars running, make smart phones and fashion clothing – and TransCanada has developed the best way to move it across country, said Duboyce.

“We acknowledge that, people have a right to their opinion. We believe that we are putting forth a project that represents the safest way, the

“You’re exporting all this money; why not make our own product available?” said Duboyce.

The pipeline would be “an amazing recycling project” since it would take advantage of infrastructure that’s already in the ground and negate the need to start from scratch, he said.

Currently, the pipeline carries gas from Alberta to Iroquois, Ont. If approved, a new portion of pipeline would be built from Iroquois to the Maritimes. The pipeline would be converted to run diluted bitumen from Alberta to refineries in eastern Canada where they

very quickly.”

Fletcher also cited that the pipeline would also cross several rivers in the area – the Ottawa, Madawaska and Mississippi rivers.

“Thinking of Ottawa in general, we’re above our water treatment plants so if something were to go wrong – and eventually, in a pipeline this size, somewhere something will – then our drinking water is exposed.”

Fletcher said the pipeline likely wouldn’t reduce rail traffic and that the risks outweigh any benefit.

“We think the economic proposition is poor and all the arguments in favour have just as strong or stronger arguments against,” he said. “This is very much non-settled. I think if people look into this and decide it’s wrong we have the ability to stop it.”

Safety plans key for TransCanada: spokesman and safety experts met with local firefighters and first responders earlier on Dec. 9 to talk about emergency preparedness in the event of a problem.

“We’re working hand in hand with those leaders be-

cause one of the aspects of the pipeline is you do need to have an emergency response plan in place and it needs to work in concert with local first responders,” said Duboyce.

“Their responsibilities are very clearly defined. Their job is to protect the safety of the public, to set up a safety perimeter around the area in the unlikely event that something actually happens. They’re not going to be in there dealing with the problem should something arise.”

Automatic safety valves, sensors and monitors are used to ensure things flow smoothly. If a problem occurs, it would only take “seconds” for them to close off the flow and contain the issue, said Duboyce.

“If we detect a problem, if something happens, our safety teams in our oil control centres see that; they’re only six clicks away from shutting down the pipeline.”

Safety exercises are held annually with emergency personnel taking part in mock spills.

hours to fully set up a perimeter and being draining the fake spill.

Duboyce said safety is one of the top priorities surrounding the proposed pipeline. He cited the Keystone pipeline, which TransCanada has operated for five years.

“You put (plans) in place specifically so nothing happens. That’s the whole point of what we’re doing, to make sure nothing happens,” he said. “We have never had a pipeline integrity issue in that pipeline.”

When it comes to groundwater safety, the pipeline is situated 1.2 metres below ground while most aquifers run deeper, said Duboyce.

TransCanada also offers well water testing for landowners within 200 metres of the pipeline – before, during and after construction. If a problem arises, a new water source will be located and covered by the company, said Duboyce.

“We don’t take safety lightly,” he said. “Problems are bad for business, bad for our reputation, bad for communities.

Our employees live here … so it’s important to us that these things are run safely.”

‘I was glad I was able to help’: Winkler receives bravery award Continued from page 1

Invited to the awards ceremony last year, Winkler had to postpone his acceptance due to his grandson’s birth.

“I was quite honoured really. Chris (Burke) followed up and invited me to this year’s award banquet. It was really quite an honour to sit at the dignitaries table,” said Winkler. “The thing that really struck me – they did quite a number of awards for the firemen. They left mine to the very last; it seemed like a really special event.”

District 6 fire chief Chris Burke said Winkler rescued the female driver from a possible death.

“This award was for a heroic rescue of a stranded passenger in a car on Thomas A Dolan and pulling her through the sunroof just prior to the car catching fire,” said Burke. “When fire crews arrived the car was fully involved in flames. Peter’s efforts that night saved the lady from extreme danger and possibly death.”

Winkler said he did what

anyone else in his place would have done. He just happened to be in the right place at the right time.

TIME AND PLACE

It was a Friday night – Oct. 25, 2013 – just a little before midnight and Winkler was returning to his home in Woodlawn from his weekly hockey game with the West Carleton Old Timers Wild Cats along the Thomas A Dolan Parkway. The conditions were fair and dry.

“I was going up the hill and I could see an oncoming car. I was getting ready to turn my high beams down,” he said.

But the oncoming lights swerved in the wrong direction. As he got up over the hill, he said a SUV turned on its side. As he stopped his car to get out, another car pulled over. Winkler didn’t have a cell phone but the second stopped driver did and called 911 as he approached the SUV. “I got out of the car and heard someone was trapped in the SUV and yelling for

He didn’t think about what he was doing. Seeing the flames and understanding what could happen if he

didn’t get the driver out, he ran to the car. He got his fingers under the sunroof and pulled it free.

“I was able to see the occupant inside; it was a single female. I asked if there was anyone else in the car,” said Winkler. With no one else in the vehicle, he set about getting the driver out.

“I grabbed her shoulders and pulled as hard as I could.

She slipped right out and we both toppled back onto the road. Once out of the vehicle I asked if she was OK. She was shook up, in a bit of shock. Minor scrapes.”

He helped her over to the second stopped car and bundled her in the back.

“We got her in the back of that car and I said, ‘We better get away from this vehicle.’

The flames were gradually getting bigger,” said Winkler.

“We moved down the road towards Dunrobin. We were away from the car, but we could see it was still burning.

We waited there until fire and police came.”

The first police cruiser arrived seven minutes after the

911 call and by then the SUV was fully engulfed. The tire exploded as Winkler spoke with the responding officer.

“By the time they got there, there was no way they could even get close enough to check,” he said. “That’s basically the thinking; if she hadn’t been able to get out … no one was available to get there fast enough.”

The female driver of the SUV was taken to hospital for an assessment and Winkler received, “a very nice phone call from her mother, saying she was fine and everything had worked out and thanking me very much,” he said. “I was glad I was able to help.”

Winkler also received a Certificate of Valour from the police, while the city presented him with a Community Police Award last year.

“Like I said to the fire guys, anybody there would have done the same thing. It was just time and place – it was a spur of the moment decision to do what I can,” said Winkler. “I feel very honoured by all these accolades.”

West Carleton Review - Thursday, December 17, 2015 5

El-Chantiry to toss old campaign material While the committee found El-Chantiry’s filings touched on grey areas, they elected not to initiate legal proceedings.

For Taylor the committee decision is just the beginning.

Taylor’s filings contained what committee members called a clerical error. His 2010 financial statement – which said he had no deficit – didn’t match his 2014 statement, which said he was carrying over a deficit of more than $4,000 from the previous election.

Amended documents were re-filed in July by Taylor.

The mistake was in the audit of the 2010 election, as the wrong amount was carried forward to the 2014 financial documents.

In an effort to correct the error, Taylor filed amended documents in July.

But committee members said they weren’t supposed to consider amended documents, and questioned their timing.

“A note with the 2014 fil-

Eli El-Chantiry told the press he’s considering his options. ings about the deficit in 2010 could have been included,” Lloyd Russell, a member of the committee said, adding it could have prevented the entire process.

But Taylor said the error wasn’t evident until Ready’s application was filed, and he’d made an attempt to fix it as transparently as possible.

“We tried to do so with full integrity and fairness,” he said.

Taylor said he wouldn’t comment on why the committee dealt with the two cases differently, and said he has talked with his lawyer, Joel Dubois, about the possibility of a judicial review of the decision.

“This is a process, and we will keep dealing with the process,” he said.

Even Ready seemed surprised by the outcome of the committee meeting. He said he was confused by the decision to proceed with legal action in one case and not the other.

“Of the (six) I completed I was the least sure about Mr. Taylor’s case,” Ready said, adding El-Chantiry took election contributions after the close of the campaign – which to him seems to be very cut and dry. However, the audit committee didn’t judge that issue worthy of review because the cheques were never cashed and didn’t impact whether or not the candidate reached his spend-

ing limit.

The signs were the bulk of the discussion in El-Chantiry’s case, as the campaign contributions were uncashed cheques.

El-Chantiry listed 300 small signs that were bought in 2006 as campaign expenses, as per the Municipal Elections Act. The problem arose when he listed the old signs’ replacement value at $1.56 each. The signs he purchased in 2014 were listed at $4 per sign.

J.P Kingsley, chair of the committee, tried to direct the auditors to assign present-day values to the signs, but the city’s lawyer, Benoit Duschene, said that was inappropriate.

Kingsley said the option of using old campaign signs gave the incumbent an undue advantage over first-time candidates. And, given that El-Chantiry was within $44 of his contribution limit – Kingsley said he wondered if the valuation of the signs would have pushed him over.

The Municipal Election Act doesn’t give clear direc-

In some cases – as was the case with Brockington in 2011 – the prosecutor can advise the governing body that there’s no chance of conviction. If that happens, the case would be dropped.

If it proceeds, the matter would go before the Ontario Board of Justice. If found guilty Taylor would lose his seat and be prohibited from campaigning for office again.

Ready, who ran for the Ottawa-Carleton District School Board in 2006 and again in 2014, said there’s no reason anyone should be unclear about what is and isn’t allowed during an election campaign.

“You get emails almost daily with directions about things under the municipal election act,” he said.

But, the act has no teeth, Ready said, which is why he took it upon himself to review the councillors’ expenses.

Ready balked at the suggestion that he has an axe to grind, saying he had to be pretty sure the applications were deemed reasonable or he could have been on the hook for “tens of thousands of dollars.”

tion on the value of old campaign materials, Marco Perron, one of the auditors, told the committee.

El-Chantiry said he was glad to be exonerated, but plans to get rid of all his old campaign material to avoid something like this in the future.

“It’s certainly not what I want to do,” he said, adding he didn’t want to see election signs clog up the landfill.

“But since the act is unclear that’s what I would advise anyone to do.”

The committee could’ve pursued costs for the audits if it was deemed the application was without merit but it decided there were reasonable grounds for the review, which means the city is on the hook for the more than $67,000 in expenses already incurred.

The funds to pay for the city’s lawyers and the per diem for the audit committee members – which is $175 per hour – come out of the city’s election reserve fund, the city solicitor’s office said.

Following the decision to initiate legal proceedings, city staff must now hire a prosecutor to deal with Taylor’s case.

West Carleton food program awarded major grant Staff

The West Carleton Healthy Food Coalition and two partners have won a major competition designed to improve local food systems.

The coalition, EnviroCentre’s Sustain West Carleton initiative and the Ottawa Good Food Box have been awarded $125,000 by the Community Foundation of Ottawa. Their project was selected by a jury Dec. 10 to receive the grant in Ottawa’s second annual New Leaf Community Challenge.

The Community Foundation of Ottawa presented the cheque for $125,000 to help the three groups to improve food security in West Carleton, noting Ottawa’s largest municipal ward has limited access to fresh, affordable, healthy food.

The West Carleton initiative was one of the three top proposals presented to a jury of community leaders and food experts at the New Leaf Community Challenge at the Lansdowne Park Horticulture Building.

“All of the projects presented at today’s challenge were highly creative, compelling and, most importantly, designed to make a measurable difference in our community over the long-term,” said Marco Pagani, CEO of the Community Foundation of Ottawa, in a news release.

“While I know it was a difficult decision, I am confident that the Transforming the Food System in West Carleton project will contribute to systemic, sustainable progress on food security in the Ottawa region.”

This second year of funding in support of a more food-secure Ottawa reflects the community foundation’s commitment to fostering systems-level progress on key issues affecting the city’s quality of life.

The foundation says the West Carleton food

system proposal is a prime example of the type of “innovative community collaboration” it is pleased to support as it will focus on creating the needed infrastructure to improve food systems and food security in West Carleton by: • establishing a new community root cellar that will enable area farmers to store their produce longer; • creating a West Carleton Food Centre where local farmers can drop off their produce for redistribution; • expanding the market share of local food through the Good Food Box (GFB) and local retailers; • expanding/strengthening the Good Food Box program in the region.

The other top two projects selected to be presented Dec. 10 included a youth-operated meal preparation and delivery service for seniors and disabled persons called FoodWorks, which was presented by Operation Come Home and Causeway Work Centre, and a hub for more efficient buying and distribution of food to the school breakfast program and other organizations, presented

by Just Food and the Ottawa Network for Education.

Designed to inspire and support Ottawa’s non-profit sector in addressing Ottawa’s most pressing needs, the New Leaf Community Challenge has attracted a wide range of local champions and supporters.

The challenge jury was made up of such notable local leaders and food experts as Ottawa restaurateur Stephen Beckta, Medical Officer of Health Dr. Isra Levy, United Way Ottawa’s Paul Steeves, Community Foundation donor and public health expert David Sweanor, home economist and culinary expert Ellie Topp, Roots & Shoots Farm owner

Robin Turner, and Farm Boy CEO Jeff York.

Established in 1987, the Community Foundation of Ottawa is a public, non-profit organization created by and for the people of Ottawa.

It connects donors who care with causes that matter and serves as a trusted resource for addressing issues and leveraging opportunities in the community.

Priding itself on enabling generous citizens to enhance the quality of life in their community while achieving their own charitable objectives, the Community Foundation currently manages assets worth over $112 million and has provided close to $90 million in grants to the community since its inception.

EDITORIAL

Dissent at city hall a good thing

S

omething happened at city hall this week that didn’t please Mayor Jim Watson, but did indicate that the current crop of councillors sitting around the discussion table on Laurier Avenue are more than just a flock of sheep.

Yes, there was honest to goodness dissent when it comes to – as Gloucester-Southgate Coun. Diane Deans describes it – “the mayor’s budget.”

There was actual disagreement and five councillors broke ranks by voting against the budget. The fact that five councillors voted nay to the 2016 budget was news in and of itself because dissent at the council table is noteworthy because it is so rare.

The councillors who balked at supporting the budget cited a lack of transparency around proposed job cuts, the city’s debt load and efficiencies.

Deans said she couldn’t vote for “a budget process that turns a blind eye and a deaf ear to the concerns of the city’s most vulnerable members.”

Ouch. Those are fighting words.

College Coun. Rick Chiarelli also voted against the budget, saying the proposed cut of 50 jobs

from the city’s workforce was unclear and he couldn’t tell residents it wouldn’t affect services without knowing where the jobs would come from.

Watson said of the job cuts that it’s not council’s job to get into the city’s human resources inner workings – there’s a city manager for that.

Really? Is it not every councillor’s job to question what staff is doing in the name of the city, whether the mayor likes questions being raised or not?

“It’s our collective responsibility to not simply oppose everything but to propose alternatives,” Watson said.

How, pray tell, does one put forward an alternative when the original proposal has not been explained?

The mayor may not like it when some councillors don’t blindly stumble along the line he has drawn. But for healthy debate and a healthy exchange of ideas at city hall, it is, to take up the mayor’s theme, the collective responsibility of councillors to ask questions and not always fall in line just because the mayor prefers it that way.

Something new afoot in the city

M

any years ago I was working on a story about visitors’ impressions of Ottawa. The one that struck me then and, still does, was from a British Columbia author, Audrey Thomas. She saw Ottawa as a city of bridges.

That seemed odd. To me, a city of bridges meant Paris, or maybe London. But then I started to count them — and lost track.

We have bridges over the Ottawa River, over the Rideau Canal and the Rideau River. Wikipedia counted them all up, including railway bridges, and came to more than 30.

That’s a surprise. But if you are on foot, as visitors tend to be more than residents, you are more aware of bridges.

afternoon. But for the walker, a bridge is just the thing.

Recent years have been better for walkers. The Corktown Footbridge has made getting to and from U of O easier and more pleasant for pedestrians and cyclists since it opened in 2006.

And now there is a bridge over the Rideau River, linking Donald Street in Overbrook with Somerset Street East in Sandy Hill.

The new Adàwe Crossing is quite gorgeous, especially when you’re on it. One thing a pedestrian bridge gives you that other bridges don’t is a chance to stop and look off. Adàwe Crossing widens in a couple of places to allow you to pause and be out of the way of cyclists and other pedestrians. Now you see the Rideau River in a way that it hasn’t been seen since the Sales Manager: Leslie Osborne leslie.osborne@metroland.com Arnprior / WC - 613-623-6571 DiSplay aDvertiSing: Paula Inglis - Arnprior/WC- 613-623-6571 paula.inglis@metroland.com Stephanie Jamieson - Renfrew - 613-432-3655 stephanie.jamieson@metroland.com Gisele Godin - Kanata - 613-221-6214 Mike Stoodley - Stittsville - 613-221-6231 Ottawa West - 613-221-6217 ClaSSifieD aDvertiSing SaleS: Christine Jarrett - 613-623-6571 Sharon Russell - 613-221-6228 the DeaDline for ClaSSifieD anD DiSplay aDvertiSing iS MonDay 9:30aM

previous bridge at that spot collapsed in 1953.

Interesting. The river curves there. And it’s shallow in spots.

There’s a view in each direction that you’ve never seen before. In a car you wouldn’t notice, and probably shouldn’t, if you’re watching the road. Plus they always give bridges high sides now to prevent drivers from looking over.

In the winter you’ll be able to look down on the frozen river. In the spring, you’ll be able to see the ice break up.

For pedestrians and cyclists and hikers some of the benefits are obvious. Others await discovery.

There is now easier access to Strathcona Park, for example.

How will it affect how people live?

What will it do for folks on the other side now that the network of trails along the river is handy for the folks in Sandy Hill.

Beyond that there is the impact of a new linking of neighboureDitorial: Managing editor: Theresa Fritz, 613-221-6261 theresa.fritz@metroland.com news editor: John Carter, 613-623-6571 x28 john.carter@metroland.com

hoods. It is now easy to walk from Overbrook to Sandy Hill and back.

That could affect everything from vehicle traffic to real estate prices.

It’s hard to see how anything bad can come of it. So much of the city’s development in the last decades has been about cars. It’s nice when the shoe is on the other footbridge.

To the Editor: The City of Ottawa’s community protective services committee and transit commission have voted to accept their budgets as proposed.

If this is reflective of how other committees are voting, the net result is very much an “as you were” continuation of flat pragmatism adopted by council based on capping taxes at 2 per cent. This is despite Ottawa residents spending hours sharing their views to the contrary with councillors.

For a majority of community agencies across Ottawa, who understand the direct impact on our city’s most vulnerable residents, the status quo is not OK. While the physical infrastructure in our city has received attention, we have seen a decline in the funding that goes to the social services, including child care, transit, food security, social assistance, recreation, affordable housing and public health.

Given the growth in the city’s low-income population over the last five years why isn’t the 2016 budget reflective of this growth? Staying the current course will only result in perpetuating a cycle of greater economic burden and social costs to city services.

Let the mayor and your city councillor know that the status quo is not OK. Coalition of Community Health and Resource Centres of Ottawa

Diana Fisher

The Accidental Farmwife

Imagine you’ve just lost your mother, and it’s Mother’s Day. Everywhere you look, the world is celebrating mothers. Now multiply that feeling by one hundred. That is what the holiday season feels like for many local families this year.

In some cases it’s the head of the household who is missing. The role will have to be assumed by someone else from now on. Holiday traditions may change a little, but many will remain the same.

The missing person may be remembered with stories and anecdotes. In some cases a place is set for them at the table.

We miss the people we have lost. But Christmas and all year long, I believe we have a responsibility to be a witness to their lives.

Some cultures prefer not to mention the dead. They feel it is easier to move forward in their lives if they leave the past behind and never mention the name of the one they have lost.

In our house, it has been nearly eight years since we lost my Dad. The pain, although dulled over time, still swells up forming tears and catching us by surprise occasionally.

We find bringing up stories of the past, using Dad’s favourite quotes and including his memory in our traditions helps to ease the sting of loss.

This year we have much to celebrate with a healthy new baby in the family. We are not

rich, but we have enough. We are trying to keep spending down, so that our credit balances do not rise out of control.

I am following the plan of buying our daughters “one thing they want, one thing they need and something to read.”

For myself, I am really trying to slow down and pay attention. Long before the distraction of social media and cell phones, I have always been a person who finds it difficult to live in the moment. Big events tend to whizz past me and I realize afterward I didn’t take the opportunity to connect with people. In the end I am the one who loses.

I am practicing being present. Every evening I turn Facebook off early so I can enjoy conversation with my husband without distraction. Those pings and bells aren’t really conducive to a good night’s sleep either.

On the weekends, I also try to keep social media activity to a minimum. That way I pay more attention to what’s happening outside on the farm, and in the house with the ones I love.

It’s nice to feel connected to friends far away through Facebook and Instagram, but they can wait. This Christmas I’m focusing on family. We are so lucky to have five generations of women getting together for a family photo.

The new baby and her mama, my mom and I will head into the city to see Great Great Grandmas Vicky and Mabel. I don’t take much time off work over Christmas, but I hope to grab a day here and there to extend the celebration a little bit.

Being busy with family get-togethers over

the holidays is a true blessing. Not everyone has time with family to look forward to at Christmas. I realize this, so I’m trying to make every moment count.

We have another little baby coming to our family this holiday season – the one that was due the same day as my daughter, Dec. 31.

Gloria and Matt are probably on edge, watching and waiting for the signs to start appearing. With any luck we will have two little babies to pass around over the holidays.

We also have a loved one who is in palliative care. This will be her last Christmas. We will be making some time to spend with her as well.

As we head into the holiday home stretch,

I encourage you to put the phone down and look around. Notice the people who are hurting, sad or lonely and consider giving them the gift of your time and attention.

It doesn’t take much – just connect with them and see if there is anything they need, or if they would like to get together and chat over a coffee.

Even a simple Christmas card with a handwritten note inside can go a long way to remind someone that you are thinking of them during this difficult time. You can help make their holidays a little more bearable. www.theaccidentalfarmwife.blogspot.com email: dianafisher@gmail.com

CT scans are the backbone of Medical Imaging.

They give radiologists the critical information needed to diagnose and save lives. CHEO needs a new CT scanner that will transform CHEO’s ability to improve technique and decrease scan time. Pictures of your child’s brain or body can be obtained much faster!

These pictures are very accurate and detailed and they allow radiologists to detect small and important changes or concerns.

It will have a tremendous impact on patient care. From babies to teenagers, patients who need these exams must be exposed to radiation in order to find a diagnosis. With the new technologies available, new scanners emit lower radiation doses significantly and are much faster. This means a patient spends less time on the CT table! It can mean a reduced need for anesthesia as well.

PLEASE HELP US PURCHASE THIS REVOLUTIONARY PIECE OF TECHNOLOGY TO HELP CHEO’S PATIENTS, JUST LIKE VIENNA. Have a profound impact on the life of a child!

St. Paul’s lights up with new cross Jessica Cunha

jessica.cunha@metroland.com

St. Paul’s United Church in Carp is lighting up the night with its new cross, just in time for Christmas.

The church council decided it was time a cross adorned the top of the building. Wilson Boyd, chair of the property committee, came up with the design.

“They left it in my hands

to make it look half decent,” said the owner of Boyd’s Landscaping, adding it was a team effort. “Basically all I did was paint it and put the lights on it. A couple other chaps did the welding.”

With help from Steve Howie, Fred Caldwell, Richard Caldwell, Ken Boyd, Adam Boyd and Dan Armstrong, the 120-pound LEDilluminated cross – which is more than nine-feet high and six-feet wide – sits atop St. Paul’s in time for the Christmas services.

“We’ve had a lot of compliments already about how nice it is. This time of year I think it means a little more,” said Wilson. “I think anybody that has (seen it) they’ve been amazed at how bright looking it is.”

The board of trustees at St. Paul’s covered a portion of the costs from the church’s Memorial Trust Fund.

“There is nothing more beautiful than a brilliant cross on a church on a dark winter’s night,” said Terri-Lynn Veale, St. Paul’s administrator.

“It is the perfect size for our church. The lighting is beautiful and we hope that all of Carp takes note of the magnificence of the illuminated cross this Christmas season and enjoys it

SUBMITTED

A new nine-foot high illuminated cross now adorns St. Paul’s United Church in Carp. for many years to come.”

SERVICES

Everyone is invited to join St. Paul’s for its Sunday morning services at 10:30 a.m.

The church is hosting a special cantata this Sunday, Dec. 20 at 4 p.m. Music directors Tobi Dumoulin and Ryan Phelps along with the

choirs of both Bethel St. Andrew’s and St. Paul’s United Churches will be performing Christmas music for everyone’s enjoyment, said Veale.

West Carleton Review - Thursday, December 17, 2015 17

Counting down the days until the count Recently I’ve been having trouble sleeping. But that’s not because Santa will soon be visiting.

My excitement comes from the approach of Boxing Day, and not because I love shopping or because that day, like Christmas, is a holiday. I’m excited because with Boxing Day comes the annual Pakenham-Arnprior Christmas Bird Count.

This year’s Count is extra special: it is my 50th consecutive one!

Christmas Bird Counts (CBCs) occur throughout North America. Each occurs in an area defined by a 24-km diameter circle, and takes place on a specified day between Dec. 14 and Jan. 5 each year. Volunteers tally all birds seen and heard in areas of the circle to which they are assigned.

Most counts occur on weekends because more participants are available then.

Bird Counts arose in 1900

Michael Runtz Nature’s Way in New York as an alternative to an annual Christmas Hunt. Participants in the ‘Hunt’ shot whatever they encountered, and tallies of the dead animals were taken at day’s end.

Frank Chapman began that first Christmas Bird Count; today, more than 2,000 take place in the Western Hemisphere.

I recall my first CBC as if it happened yesterday.

I read about an upcom-

ing Pakenham Christmas Bird Count in ‘Strictly for the Birds’, an Arnprior Guide column written by Bud Levy under the nom de plume ‘Hawkeye’. Hawkeye’s group covered between Arnprior and White Lake, and highlights included a Red-breasted Nuthatch alighting on a snow-covered rock near Claybank and Red Crossbills devouring seeds in White Pines near White Lake.

Edna Ross, with assistance of her brother Allan, conducted the first Pakenham CBC in 1925; her sister Verna joined the ‘Ross-ter’ in 1926. Surprisingly, that wasn’t the first local bird count; Charles Macnamara conducted the Arnprior CBC from 1913 to 1939.

In 1970, ‘Pakenham CBC’ was changed to ‘PakenhamArnprior CBC’ to honour the two historic counts that ran concurrently for many years.

On recent Counts, Ryan Zimmerling and I cover an area near Arnprior. We start before dawn listening for owls (last year an Eastern Screech-Owl called in Gillies Grove), and from first light to mid-morning we wander through the Nopiming Game Preserve near Marshall Bay. Next we visit Galetta where Common Goldeneyes and Common Mergansers and the occasional Bald Eagle are rewards. We then head to Arnprior looking for birds in the Madawaska River, and for hawks and other field birds near the Airport. Late afternoon is spent searching along the Upper Dwyer Hill Road.

Usually 30 other observers tally birds in other parts of the count circle, and a compilation of all findings is done at day’s end.

To date, 120 species have been tallied on the Pakenham-Arnprior CBC. If the Bullock’s Oriole in Pakenham survives to Boxing Day, that number will rise by at

MICHAEL RUNTZ

If this Bullock’s Oriole survives until Boxing Day, it will become the first of its species recorded on a Christmas Bird Count in Ontario. least one!

Birdfeeders are great sources of birds (especially unusual ones), so if you have a feeder in the count area (a 24-km diameter circle centred near Pakenham), I’d love to hear about it. And if you have basic identifica-

tion skills and would like to participate, please contact me also.

Perhaps then, like me, you’ll have another week of sleepless nights to endure!

Christmas at Corkery

John O’Neill Sales Representative

St. Michael’s Catholic School in Corkery was a busy spot on Dec. 10, as the school held its annual ‘Christmas in Corkery’ production. There was a bonfire outside, while inside students and staff served up homemade chili donated by parents and pizza, hot chocolate, popcorn for over 500 people, said principal Martha Palmer. There were baked goods for sale. Santa and Mrs. Claus came for a visit and some photos with students. The entire school took part from Kindergarten to Grade 6 on the outdoor Cavanaugh stage for singing a special Christmas song. The teachers capped the evening with the Moose in a Maple tree, said Palmer.

cookie exchange co-ordinator, explained that everyone brings their own three dozen cookies and squares to exchange and taste test. Theoretically, those involved can still go home with three dozen treats but just with a different selection. The concept can also help with Christmas baking.

Kim Lacourciere of Carp ventured out to the exchange for the first time. Reading about it in the Review inspired her to go.

She said her speciality is date squares and she wanted to share the recipe but also pick up on other ideas.

Spratt announced the winners. The most attractive square with a criss-cross pattern was Leah Dean’s.

Judged most attractive cookie was a cornflake cluster, created by Diane Egan.

Mary Shoupe and Elenore Wallace took second place slot for the cookie and square catergory. The winning square went to Krista Campbell and cookie to Amy Dean for her toffee sugar recipe.

Fitzroy woman helps others find balance Reflexology and children’s yoga help manage stress, provide coping tools Jessica Cunha

jessica.cunha@metroland.com

Fitzroy Harbour resident Monika Miller is helping families and children find balance through reflexology and children’s yoga.

Life can be busy and hectic, but through her practice she helps people find time to connect with themselves.

“The world is so busy; half the time when you’re working, how many people skip not even going to the washroom until they really have to? You’re so busy you don’t even eat your lunch or take your breaks,” she said.

“Yes it’s crazy and you can get picked up in the momentum of life, but when you stop and do anything like reflexology, mediation, yoga, massage, it helps you say hi to you. It helps you be charged so you’re ready to go out there. If you don’t recharge, physically you’re going to get ill.”

Miller, 49, has always worked in an environment that helped others; she worked for the Ontario Provincial Police before finding employment through the Ottawa Civic Hospital.

When her administration position was cut and she was laid off, she decided to realize one of her life-long dreams of running her own healing practice.

“I’ve always wanted, probably when I was in my 20s, to run a healing centre. I was never confident enough to do anything like that. I worked many different places, went to school, went to college,” she said.

“Administration was something that was predictable, mainstream, in the box. I loved working at the Civic Hospital for 14 years.

Then I got laid off.”

Monika Miller, a Fitzroy Harbour resident, helps others manage stress through her practice Kinder Healing, which offers reflexology treatments and children’s yoga classes.

JESSICA CUNHA/ METROLAND

She thought she might go into registered massage therapy (RMT) but decided instead to study reflexology and children’s yoga, two of her passions.

“It’s been wonderful,” said Miller. “At 49-yearsold I’ve finally figured out what I’m supposed to be doing.

“It makes me feel good to know I’ve contributed positively to (a) person’s world.”

NATURAL HEALING

Miller provided me with a reflexology treatment on my hands to demonstrate how the practice works.

I found myself relaxing – actually relaxing – while she applied firm pressure to the various points on my hands, while explaining how it all works.

I slept better that night and found much of the tension I’d been carrying had disappeared.

Reflexology is “a natural healing art based on the principle that there are reflexes in the feet, hands and ears, which correspond to every part, gland and organ of the body.” By applying pressure to specific points, reflexology can help relieve tension, stress, improve the body’s circulation and promote health.

“Massage therapy works on the outside in, reflexology works on the inside out.

That’s really the best way to describe it. Both of them release toxins in the body,” said Miller.

“These are all different little mechanisms and tools to help you have a better quality of life and better quality relationships in your life with your family, friends and yourself. It starts with you.”

age groups have different developmental needs. What you need to do is adjust; you have a template on what to do and then adjust based on the energy in the room.”

Yoga for children teaches them how to self-regulate, to tune into themselves and offers them coping tools to deal with stress.

“Research is coming out

to show that it’s very beneficial in stress relief,” said Miller. “Holistic medicine is being looked at a little more seriously.”

Miller travels to her clients’ homes to provide treatment and also offers sessions out of her home.

Her goal is to create her own healing centre, but right now being transitory

is beneficial for those she treats.

Miller is offering a onehour reflexology session for $50 (either hands or feet) until Dec. 30. Regular pricing for treatment is $65.

CHILDREN’S YOGA

Miller is a trained reflexologist therapist with the Reflexology Association of Canada, and she received her teaching and training in Radiant Children’s Yoga from Shakta Khalsa (named one of the top five Kundalini Yoga teachers in the world) and Allison Morgan (who created Zensational Kids).

Miller teaches toddlers to teenagers, and is trained to teach differently-abled children and those with ADHD and autism.

Her favourite part of teaching children’s yoga is when she hosts classes at schools.

“When I get a kid who comes up to me and tell me they feel good, it just makes my heart sing,” she said.

Miller began researching children’s yoga when her son, now 11, wanted to attend a class with her – but she couldn’t see him being still or quiet enough for the hour-and-a-half class, which prompted her to start her own.

“Yoga for kids is not like adults,” she said. “Different

City passes budget with two per cent increase Five councillors dissent, want more information on efficiencies, job cuts Jennifer McIntosh

jennifer.mcintosh@metroland.com

The city passed a budget on Dec. 9 that will mean a two per cent increase in property taxes.

While the budget will mean a modest increase of $11 to the average homeowner, the increase on the water bill will be an extra $49.

Transit riders will pay an average of 2.5 per cent more

on fares – meaning an adult bus pass will go from $103 per month to $105.

Rideau-Rockcliffe Coun.

Tobi Nussbaum unsuccessfully moved to freeze transit fares by moving an increase to the transit levy. The levy would have meant an annual increase of $6 to the average homeowner.

The motion was defeated,

Notice of Project Completion Municipal Class EA Phase II Report and Conceptual Rehabilitation Solutions for Ottawa River Outfalls The subject of this Environmental Assessment (EA) study relates specifically to the physical condition of 29 storm outfalls into the Ottawa River identified by the City of Ottawa as being in need of repair or rehabilitation.

The overall project followed an integrated planning approach. The study was carried out as a Municipal Class Environmental Assessment Master Plan and followed Approach #2 from the MEA Municipal Class Environmental Assessment (October 2000, as amended in 2007). This approach involves the preparation of a Master Plan report at the conclusion of Phases 1 and 2 of the Municipal Class EA process where the level of investigation, consultation and documentation are sufficient to fulfill the requirements of Schedule B projects. Any Schedule A and A+ projects identified in the Master Plan may proceed in accordance with the implementation requirements defined by the Municipal Class EA. This report documents the results of an environmental assessment completed in the context of the MEA Class Environmental Assessment (Schedule B) under the Ontario Environmental Assessment Act (OEAA) and the screening process under the Canadian Environmental Assessment Act (CEAA). While the outfalls themselves are owned by the City of Ottawa, the requirement to undertake the screening process relates to the fact that most of the outfalls are located on lands owned by the National Capital Commission (NCC).

Seven outfalls were assessed to be Schedule B which required more detail including the completion of more detailed site inspections, additional stakeholder consultation, selection of the preferred alternative, and a second public meeting to present the preferred alternatives and the methodology used in the decision making process. These outfalls are as follows: Seven Outfalls Identified as Class EA Schedule ‘B’ Undertakings Ref #

The project is being planned under Schedule B of the Municipal Class Environmental Assessment. The EA study has confirmed project need and justification, documented existing environmental conditions, examined alternatives, potential impacts and recommended mitigation measures, and provided opportunity for comments from review agencies and the public, all leading to the development of a preferred solution.

If concerns arise regarding this project, which cannot be resolved in discussion with the municipality, a person or party may request that the Minister of Environment make an order for the project to comply with Part II of the Environmental Assessment Act (referred to as a Part II Order), which addresses individual environment assessments. Requests must be received by the Minister at the address below within 30 calendar days of the first publication of this Notice. A copy of the request must also be sent to the City at the address below.

If there is no request received by Monday, January 18, 2016, the project will proceed to detailed design and construction as presented in the planning documentation.

as many councillors were concerned about the possibility of paying the piper down the road.

“We have seen fare freezes in the past where the result was a much larger increase in future years,” said Cumberland Coun. Stephen Blais, adding the 2.5 per cent increase is a key part of the city’s transit affordability plan.

Five councillors dissented on the budget, citing a lack of transparency around proposed job cuts, the city’s debt load and efficiencies.

Gloucester-Southgate Coun. Diane Deans took a beating after proposing a motion to cut three additional full-time equivalents from the city’s workforce to pay for $250,000 in one-time funding to help out some of the city’s front line social service agencies.

Deans is chair of the community and protective services committee, and heard from dozens of agencies about the increased demand for services like the food bank and dwindling funding dollars.

Originally Deans’s motion sought to use a city contingency fund to find the money, but Mayor Jim Watson ruled her out of order because the $250,000 didn’t have a corresponding spending cut on another item.

Barrhaven Coun. Jan Harder said she thought the

1.5 per cent increase being given to social service agencies was fair, as other departments, like the police were all allocated the same thing.

‘MAYOR’S BUDGET’

Deans said she couldn’t vote for “the mayor’s” budget.

“A budget process that turns a blind eye and a deaf ear to the concerns of the city’s most vulnerable members isn’t doing the city a service,” she said.

College Coun. Rick Chiarelli also voted against the budget, saying the city has doubled it’s debt in five years, and with no plan to pay it back, he worries what will happen to core services once the debt from light rail is added.

“We’ve had to tighten up and can barely afford services now,” he said. “And we have two trains coming at us and the billions of dollars that will cost.”

Chiarelli said the proposed cut of 50 jobs from the city’s workforce was unclear and he couldn’t tell residents it wouldn’t affect services without knowing where the jobs would come from.

During previous terms of council, members would be told where the cuts were coming from, he said, adding snow removal will return to a

council standard.

“We’ve always been above the standard before, but you can’t cut millions without it affecting the service,” he said.

Watson said the budget struck a good balance between maintaining services and the city living within their means.

“It was a tough year,” Watson said.

The 2016 budget ends a five year streak for the mayor – who saw unanimous budgets passed during his first five years in office.

Watson said of the job cuts that it’s not council’s job to get into the city’s human resources inner workings – there’s a city manager for that.

He said of the councillors that dissented that not one of them passed a motion or amendment to the budget.

“It’s our collective responsibility to not simply oppose everything but to propose alternatives,” he said.

But Chiarelli said councillors have met with the mayor and the city manager to discuss ideas for cost savings, but none of it made its way into the budget.

“Any motion that has cross-departmental solutions can’t be introduced until council, so you’re only other option is your 15 allotted minutes with the mayor and the city manager,” he said.

Watson, city manager to choose LRT toilet Jennifer McIntosh

jennifer.mcintosh@metroland.com

The city is looking at selfcleaning, gender neutral washrooms for the future Bayview and Hurdman light rail stations.

The staff report heard by council on Dec. 9 said the new options for washrooms at the stations would cut the $13,000 per month proposed maintenance cost by up to half.

“The cost would be 50 to 75 per cent of the maintenance cost proposed,” city manager Kent Kirkpatrick said.

The LRT construction timelines are tight, so the mayor, Kirkpatrick and transportation chairman Stephen Blais are to pick the model of toilet.

If a choice isn’t made by Dec. 16, the city will be on the hook for an extra $250,000.

The item will go back to council for consideration if staff decides on a pay-per-use model for the washrooms, set to be installed during the construction of the stations.

Knoxdale-Merivale Coun.

Keith Egli said he wouldn’t support a pay-per-use model.

Rideau-Vanier Coun.

Mathieu Fleury said he was happy to hear there would be a reduction in the $13,000 per month maintenance fee.

“That seemed rather high to me,” he said.

River Coun. Riley Brockington said the public should get a say on whether or not they support a pay-per-use model.

At the city’s finance and

economic development committee on Nov. 30, Mayor Jim Watson said the city should look to recover some of the maintenance and construction costs with a pay-to-go model.

College Coun. Rick Chiarelli made a couple of jokes about the plans.

“I look forward to the opening,” he said. “The first photo flush should be something.”

Chiarelli also commented on the mayor’s involvement with the selection of the toilet, noting Watson said it wasn’t the council’s job to get involved in the city’s human resources inner workings – referencing the planned cuts to the city’s workforce.

“Look, the mayor is choosing a toilet,” Chiarelli said.

Ward 5 West Carleton-March CITY COUNCIL APPROVES THE 2016 BUDGET On December 9, City Council approved the 2016 Operating & Capital Budgets for the City of Ottawa. This budget protects the long-term affordability of services for residents, while holding property taxes at 2 per cent.

The proposed tax revenue increase is 1.75 per cent for City and Police services, which translates to a 2 per cent increase for residential property. This represents an increase of approximately $51 per year for a rural home assessed at $375,300.

I’d like to thank the residents of Ward 5 that provided their feedback and constructive ideas during the budget consultation process. Visit ottawa.ca/budget2016 for detailed information about the budget.

CITY LOOKING FOR INPUT ON THE PERMANENT SIGNS BY-LAW Residents are invited to provide input on a City of Ottawa discussion paper regarding changes to the Permanent Signs on Private Property By-Law No. 2005-439. This signage identifies buildings or properties, provides information about what businesses or services are available at particular locations, advertises goods or services or provides directional information. Visit ottawa. ca/permanentsigns to read the paper and to submit your feedback until Wednesday, January 13, 2016. Proposed recommendations for changes to the by-law will be circulated in February 2016. Committee and Council will consider a report and new by-law in June 2016.

LOCK IT DOWN! With the holiday season upon us, the Ottawa Police Service is encouraging motorists to “Lock it Down” by keeping car doors locked and removing or hiding valuables such as shopping bags, electronic devices, spare change, etc. By taking simple measure, thefts from cars can be avoided.

Ottawa Police Officers are often seen in the community placing yellow “All Valuables Removed” cards on parked vehicles. This is a crime prevention initiative and the cards contain information on how to protect property by providing theft prevention tips, as well as important numbers to call if it happens to you. When this card is placed inside the vehicle, it advertises that you are a part of a crime prevention initiative and that there is nothing of value in the vehicle, thus assisting in deterring any potential victimization.

To obtain an “All Valuables Removed” card, contact your local Community Police Centre, visit www.ottawapolice.ca or stop into my ward office.

Stonecrest students help others bundle up School raises more than $1,700 for Snow Suit Fund Jessica Cunha jessica.cunha@metroland.com

JESSICA CUNHA/METROLAND

Stonecrest students in Grades 2 and 3 show off some of the new snowsuits collected through their fundraiser for the Snow Suit Fund. The students also helped raised more than $1,700 to buy new warm weather gear for youth in need.

Got Events?

Students at Stonecrest Elementary School are ensuring other youth have a warm winter after raising more than $1,700 for the Snow Suit Fund.

Students in Grades 2 and 3 made posters announcing the fundraiser and went from classroom to classroom for five days at the beginning of the month, collecting money and new winter gear for the orga-

nization from their peers, while Grade 6 students were charged with tallying the funds raised.

“We went around and got snowsuits or any donations of money for the Snow Suit Fund,” said Grade 3 student Hannah Willett.

“It’s so children could stay warm this winter,” added Jack Britton, in Grade 3. “We collected a lot.”

All in all, 59 Grade 2 and 3 students took part, along with 25 Grade 6 students, and raised $1,731.61 with 11 new snowsuits donated.

The funds were enough to purchase at least 34 more new snowsuits.

SOLSTICE RUN/WALK

This Friday, Dec. 18 is this year’s date for the annual Solstice Run and Walk. While Dec. 18 is not quite the precise date of the true Winter Solstice (Dec. 21), the long dark night and the ever shortening hours of daylight are a stark reminder that winter is approaching.

Since ancient times people railed against the darkness with torches, yule logs and eventually the Christmas tree itself. It obviously worked, because the days started becoming longer. “In the Bleak Midwinter” was no more.

Today the approach at Galilee Centre is a little more modern. Runners and walkers will dress in Christmas or Solstice themed attire, adorn themselves with lights and reflective gear, and either do a 5-km run or a 2.5-km walk along the streets of Arnprior.

A stop at East Side Mario’s for free hot chocolate is oblig-

After the run or walk, everybody retires to the splendidly decked out Galilee Centre for the now traditional Solstice Meal: Lentil Soup, Cesare Salad, two types of chili, bread and the famous Galilee Carrot Cake. There will be prizes for the best costumes, prizes for all the kids and the

singing of carols.

Fourth annual Solstice Run and Walk, 6 p.m. Galilee Centre, 398 John St. N, food bank donations welcome, $25 per person, $60 maximum per family. Tickets and registration forms at the Nick Smith Centre and Galilee Centre (613-623-4242, ext. 21).

DICKENS & DINNER

The annual Galilee reading of Charles Dickens’ A Christ-

mas Carol takes place this Sunday, Dec. 20. This year the readers will be Katherine Miller Gatenby, Debbie Vallen, Charlotte Leach, Rosemary Jones, Shannon Muir Stevenson, Mary Campbell and Anda Sprudzs.

The performance will be in the Oak room. Just outside the audience will see the mighty Royal Oak that was planted by the Prince of Wales himself over 150 years ago.

A Christmas Carol was published in 1843 – 172 years ago. Yet it resonates today, as much as the day it was written.

These seven talented actors bring the book to life in the old tradition of recitation.

All guests are encouraged to wear Dickensian or Victorian attire if at all so inclined.

After the reading, audience and actors with mingle over appetizers, to discuss the performance.

Then all retire to the dining room for a the Galilee Victorian meal (steak and mushroom pie, sausage, soda bread, roasted vegetables and a surprise Victorian dessert).

Fifth annual Dickens & Dinner, 3-7 p.m., adults $40, children 12 and under $25, tickets at the Galilee Centre (613-623-4242, ext. 21) or from Andy Kalnins (613-6225464) or Enid Blackwell (613623-7017).

Huntley Curling Club sweeps up interest in sport Popular learn to curl class back for second session Jessica Cunha

jessica.cunha@metroland.com

The Huntley Curling Club had such a successful inaugural ‘Learn to Curl’ session that it’s hosting a second course this January.

The curling club saw 36 people come out for the introductory 10week course from all over West Carleton, Kanata and Stittsville, said head instructor Charlene Johnston.

“We were overwhelmed, it was a great turnout,” said Johnston. “It’s a new program for us, we’re really pleased with the interest.”

Due to the high interest, a second eight-week introductory course will be held beginning Jan. 10. The course is endorsed by Curl Canada and teaches the sport’s mechanics, rules and etiquette.

One of the reasons curling is so popular is because it’s a “social sport” and can be enjoyed at any age, said Johnston, who’s been curling herself for 28 years.

“It can be learned and played right up to any age; we’ve got a young kids’ program and people well into their 90s,” she said. “You’ll meet a lot of really nice people – everyone’s really friendly – and you’ll get some exercise and get out of the house during those dark, dreary winter days.”

Curling is considered a “gentleman’s” or “gentlepeople sport,” said Johnston, as there are no officials. The game requires a certain etiquette, which is taught during the course. And then if people are really bitten by the curling bug, the Huntley club – located at the back

of the Carp Fairgrounds off Langstaff Drive – offers a whole host of day and evening programs.

“We’ve got leagues every day of the week, and evenings, so there’s lots of places to play,” said Johnston.

The all ages eight-week learn to curl course begins Sunday, Jan. 10, from 7 to 9 p.m. and costs $150.

For more information or to register, contact Charlene Johnston at 613470-0142 or reddoggiegirl@gmail. com.

From left, rookie curlers Matt Edgeworth, Jenna Thompson, Shannon Hayes and Will Maloley take part in the first ‘Learn to Curl’ program at the Huntley Curling Club. The players, all from Kanata, were instructor Charlene Johnston’s ‘all-star team,’ she said.

Sens bring Christmas cheer to CHEO patients during team visit Erin McCracken

erin.mccracken@metroland.com

Putting smiles on children’s faces is one of the perks of being a professional hockey player.

Ottawa Senators goaltender Andrew Hammond still remembers the first time he met an NHL player as a youngster, and feels fortunate he can now give kids that same thrill.

Hammond, who is currently on the injured list, said he was six years old when he had a chance encounter with Vancouver Canucks’ former back-up goalie, Kay Whitmore.

“I saw him walking into practice one day and I think I touched him on the jersey and I still remember it now,” Hammond said during the Ottawa Senators’ annual Christmas visit to CHEO on Dec. 2.

“I was the biggest hockey fan around and just seeing

ERIN MCCRACKEN/METROLAND

Madi Kovacs, 15, of Arnprior, snaps a selfie with Senators left winger Milan Michálek during the team’s annual Christmas visit to CHEO on Dec. 2. Several of the players brought gifts, signed autographs and handed out hockey cards to the young patients. an NHL player was something that I’d talk about for months on end.”

This year was Hammond’s

first visit to the regional children’s hospital and it proved memorable, allowing him to give back to young fans and

their families.

“You feel like a normal person, but at the end of the day you have to remember when you were a kid and how you took those experiences and what they meant to you,” he said.

There was hushed excitement in the hospital cafeteria moments before Senators’ home game public address announcer Stuntman Stu Schwartz entered the room and, one by one, called out each player’s name as they swept into the cafeteria wearing their jerseys and carrying presents.

The players, including Bobby Ryan, Cody Ceci, Mark Stone, Marc Methot, Curtis Lazar, Jean-Gabriel Pageau, Patrick Wiercioch and Erik Karlsson, among others, were first serenaded by patients, parents, CHEO staff and volunteers with a hockey-themed song to the tune of Jingle Bells.

Then, in keeping with past

Christmas visits, the newest Sens players tried singing a Christmas carol as veteran players looked on.

“That was horrible,” Stuntman Stu joked when they finished, prompting laughter.

The Lemke family, from Eganville, only learned the day before that the Sens were going to drop by.

“It’s a bright spot along the way,” said Bernie Lemke, whose four-year-old daughter, Navila, has been undergoing treatment at CHEO for leukemia since March.

“I’m really happy that they take the time and the effort to do this,” he said. “I’m sure they don’t have any idea how meaningful it is for the kids.

It leaves an impression.”

But many of them did, including Methot.

For the past three years, since he was traded to the Senators, he has enjoyed making the annual visit to the children’s hospital during

the holiday season.

In fact, this year he has been making even more solo visits to CHEO. Living “down the street in Mooney’s Bay,” where he grew up, makes it easy, said Methot, who dropped by during training camp to spend time and play games with some of the long-term patients.

“They have little game rooms and so I’ll just go in and shoot (the breeze) with them and play board games, and some of them like to sing songs, which is cool,” Methot said.

Despite being a self-described “terrible” singer, he said the experience serves as an important reminder.

“People tend to take for granted what they have,” the defenceman said. “To see these kids go through this at such a young age and seeing how strong some of them can be, it’s pretty impressive.”

Sens meet their match during CHEO visit Continued from page 28

The players met their match in Sean Grover, 10, of Nepean.

One by one the Sens lined up to sign the hockey buff ’s red foam finger. Some went and brought over Bobby Ryan when they found out the right-winger is Sean’s fa-

vourite player.

“It was probably one of the best moments of my year, actually,” Sean said after Ryan sat down with him to chat for several minutes and autograph the foam finger.

“What I really like about (him), when he first came on the Ottawa

Senators, you could tell he was going to be a good player,” beamed Sean, who has been a CHEO patient since he was born with Kabuki Syndrome, a pediatric congenital disorder that required heart surgery.

“I kind of could tell how he was playing in his first game, ‘this was

going to be a star for the team.’”

Milan Michálek has been making the team’s annual Christmas trip to CHEO since about 2009.

“It’s nice to see them happy,” said the father of a three-year-old boy.

As well as being able to lift the spirits of the patients, the experience was also a gift for the Sens themselves, putting life in perspective and serving as a reminder of how important the team is to the

community.

“We worry about things on the ice when we don’t score goals, when we have a bad game. But when you see kids here, they are struggling and it’s sad,” he said.

“But also you see, this puts a smile on their face.”

It always serves as a humbling moment.

“It’s awesome,” said Michálek.

“I wish that I can come here many more years.”

Foods safety tips to keep the holidays healthy ‘Tis the season to be jolly. So don’t let food poisoning interfere with your festive cheer.

Ontario’s Acting Chief Medical Officer of Health reminds all Ontarians to make sure they follow safe food practices this holiday season. Whether it’s baking goodies for friends or cooking entrées for family, Dr. David Williams suggests keeping these four safe food-handling tips top of mind: • Clean -- your hands, surfaces and equipment and do it well. Bacteria can get onto hands, cutting boards, knives, dishcloths, countertops and the food itself; • Separate -- meat, poultry and fish from ready-toeat foods during storage and preparation to prevent the spread of bacteria; • Cook -- your food thoroughly, especially meat and

poultry, such as turkey; • Chill – your foods to four degrees Celsius or lower within two hours of purchase or preparation, especially for high-risk foods like meat, poultry, fish, eggs and dairy products.

“Food poisoning happens when people eat food that is contaminated with harmful bacteria, viruses or parasites,” said Williams.

“Every year, thousands of Ontarians suffer from food poisoning due to improper food handling in their own homes. Small children, the elderly, pregnant women and people with existing health conditions are most at risk.

That’s why it’s important to wash hands and surfaces, and eat foods that are properly washed, stored and cooked this holiday season.”

French school to be available for West Carleton students Scott Campbell scottcampbell@metroland.com

A site has been acquired for the new French Catholic elementary school that will serve the west end of West Carleton and Lanark and the south end of Renfrew county.

The school will be located across from AJ Charbonneau School on Baskin Drive near Stonehaven Way in Arnprior.

The Conseil des École Catholiques du CentreEst (CECCE) held a public information session on the proposed school in Arnprior Dec. 3. About 25 people came out to the Arnprior Public Library, which actually exceeded expectations of the school officials.

“We had Arnprior on our priority project list,” said Réjean Sirois, director of education and secretary treasurer for the CECCE. Sirois noted that the Ministry of

Education gave funding because the school was given a high priority.

The new school can take up to 248 students from junior Kindergarten to Grade 8. There will also be 49 places in a daycare for those up to four years old.

The project will cost $8.5 million.

Much of the Arnprior presentation was bilingual. People also shared their thoughts on what they felt the school should be like – fully accessible for one.

“Arnprior’s projection (is that) it is a booming community,” said Sirois, making the costs of the construction viable in the long term.

“It will reduce times as kids are already being bused into Kanata and some parents just don’t want to put them on the bus for that long.”

The school has a targeted opening of fall 2017.

Émile Maheu, executive director of the Conseil des École Catholiques du Centre-Est, discusses thoughts about the French Catholic elementary school planned for Arnprior.

42 West Carleton Review - Thursday, December 17, 2015

Area educators are mourning the loss of a Lanark County teacher who died this week at the age of 34.

Megan E. Kumpula, (nee Laidley) was a core French teacher at Pakenham Public School for the past eight years. She died at the Queensway-Carleton Hospital in Ottawa on Dec. 2, after a short battle with meningitis.

Born in Toronto in 1981, she was raised in Perth, to parents from the Bahamas.

ted Balfour. “Our hearts are broken,” read the post.

Online and in real life, “the outpouring of support has been fabulous,” said Balfour. “It speaks to her broad support.”

He and other staffers had known that she had been feeling ill, so every child in the school did get well soon cards to send to her – which were dropped off at the hospital before her death.

“This is a very small community school and she has been a huge part of the community,” Balfour said. “She worked with every child on a daily basis,” he recalled, teaching every grade from Kindergarten to Grade 6.

Kumpula was such a devoted teacher that last year, during her maternity leave, she came back to the school to help out with a Christmas sale. “She was one of the most giving teachers of her time,” said Balfour.

She was famed for her baking and, in a bittersweet twist, as she lay in hospital on Saturday, Dec. 5, her students were selling her baked goods and earrings at the school sale.

“She was really into fundraising. She would do lots and lots of baking.”

With her baking, “she fed their soul and their stomachs.”

During her time at the school, she helped coordinate the school’s Terry Fox Run and the annual Jump Rope for Heart event. In fact, she was instrumental in bringing Fox’s brother to speak at the school earlier this year.

“She loved working with kids, and she loved her job,” said Balfour.

“She made working here a better place (She was) a fantastic person to work with.

She made you feel good to be around.”

Professionally, “she was a life-long learner,” trying to improve the French program and how she taught it.

He promised that the school community would do something to remember Madame Kumupla – just what form the memorial assembly will take remains to be seen, though, as he needs to consult with the family.

O LITTLE TOWN OF BETHLEHEM Phillips Brooks 19th Century Lewis H. Redner 19th Century

O little town of Bethlehem, How still we see thee lie!

Above thy deep and dreamless sleep The silent stars go by; Yet in the dark streets shineth The everlasting Light; The hopes and fears of all the years Are met in thee tonight.

For Christ is born of Mary; And gathering all above, While mortals sleep, the angels keep Their watch of wondering love.

O morning stars, together Proclaim the holy birth, And praises sing to God the King, And peace to men on earth.

How silently how silently, The wonderous gift is given!

So God imparts to human hearts The blessings of His heaven.

No ear may hear His coming; But in this world of sin, Where meek souls will receive Him, still The dear Christ enters in.

O Holy Child of Bethlehem, Descend to us, we pray; Cast out our sin, and enter in; Be born in us today.

We hear the Christmas angels The great glad tidings tell; O come to us, abide with us, Our Lord Emmanuel.

Sanctuary

It came upon a midnight clear, That glorious song of old, From angels bending near the earth To touch their harps of gold:“Peace on earth, goodwill to men, From heaven’s all-gracious King!”

The world in solemn stillness lay To hear the angels sing.

You know Dasher and Dancer and Prancer and Vixen, Comet and Cupid and Donner and BlitzenBut do you recall the most famous reindeer of all?

Still through the cloven skies they come. With peaceful wings unfurled: And still their heavenly music floats O’er all the weary world; Above its sad and lowly plains They bend on hovering wing.

And ever o’er its Babel Sounds The blessed angels sing.

And ye, beneath life’s crushing load, Whose forms are bending low, Who toil along the climbing way With painful steps and slow, Look now! for glad and golden hours come swiftly on the wing; O rest beside the weary road, and hear the angels sing.

For lo, the days are hastening on, By prophet bards foretold, When with the ever circling years Comes round the age of gold; When peace shall over all the earth Its ancient splendors fling, And the whole world give back the song Which now the angels sing.

In other words, “have yourself a merry little Christmas!”

Our hearts are with all the great people we’ve had the privilege to work with this past year. We feel proud to serve and be a part of this wonderful community.

Stonecrest celebrates season with music The gymnasium at Stonecrest Elementary school was filled with Christmas and holiday music on Dec. 10.

Concerts were held in the afternoon and also in the evening.

Conductor Nicole Vaillancourt led students from the junior band, senior band and musical ensembles through a variety of songs to the delight of the large audiences.

Top, students (at back) Danielle, Danika, Lucca and Aimee celebrate with teacher Luc Lemaire on his retirement from Stonecrest Elementary after 16 years.

In front are students Hannah, Taylor and Joey. Lemaire was honoured at the school’s Christmas band concert.

The afternoon concert was especially poignant for many staff and students as they took the time to honour their ‘jock’ and resident Montreal Canadiens fan Luc Lemaire with a surprise song, speeches and a Canadiens jersey.

He’s been teaching French immersion and made the decision to retire after 16 years of being at Stonecrest.

Students from the Stonecrest Junior Band lead by band teacher Nicole Vaillancourt perform a variety of songs including Ode to Joy, Jingle Bell March and First Winter’s Sleigh Ride.

Talented kids in Kinburn JOHN CARTER/METROLAND

The youngsters had a great time at the annual Kinburn Community Association Lunch with Santa Sunday. Not only did they meet Santa and have a fine meai, the children made a number of Christmas crafts. Clockwise from left are Evelyn White and her unorthadox crayoning style, Holly Carruthers and her self-portrait, Austin White and his silver bells, Gwen Laroque decked out in her Christmas hat, and Taylor Goult and her home-made Christmas tree ornaments. Next up for the Kinburn Community Centre are a New Year’s Eve dance featuring: 3’s a crowd and the Waltz into Winter Dinner and Dance Jan. 22 with live music by Revival.

Elves ask for help to fill holiday stockings Carp included in second year of anonymous giving adam.kveton@metroland.com

The elves of the Kanata Stocking Project arenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t looking for recognition â&#x20AC;&#x201C; just a little help.

The project, founded by Crystal Smalldon, is in its second year collecting toys

and other stocking stuffers and distributing them to quietly needy families in the Kanata, Stittsville and Carp areas.

Having provided 200 stockings last year even after launching the project late in the season, the initiative has gained more traction this

year, with about 350 stockings needed, but donations of stocking stuffers falling behind.

Smalldon, who thinks the stocking total will likely hit 400 by Christmas Eve, is hoping the community will be able to respond to the need.

SUPPLIES NEEDED THIS WEEK: Whiskas meaty selections cat food, bleach, paper towels, cat treats

Smalldon, who moved to Kanata five years ago and now lives in Briarbrook, began helping out with a similar project when she lived in the Niagara area, she said.

Smalldon resolved to start up the project in Kanata after finding out that a neighbour of hers was having a tough time during the holiday season. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I knew something was up,â&#x20AC;? she said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I wasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t completely sure what was up, and then I started thinking, â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Why am I not doing (the Stocking Project) here?

I should be doing it here as well.â&#x20AC;&#x2122;â&#x20AC;?

The project looks to provide some Christmas cheer to children whose families are having a tough time financially, but who donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t seek help. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s completely not typical,â&#x20AC;? said Smalldon. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t call churches or food banks or anything like that and ask for referrals. We ask the community for referrals.â&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s people who would never pick up the phone and call and say, â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;I really need help.â&#x20AC;&#x2122; Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s your next door neighbour who you know is struggling so you are going to let us know. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s that kind of demographic.â&#x20AC;?

Often those referring families to the project become volunteers themselves, helping to find, take in and

sort donations to be made up into stockings for kids aged up to 18, as well as a few things for mom and dad or the childrenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s guardians.

Another feature of the project is anonymity. â&#x20AC;&#x153;They literally have no idea the stuff is coming,â&#x20AC;? said Smalldon of the recipients.

Volunteers ring the doorbell, hand over the stockings full of toys and other stocking stuffers, say â&#x20AC;&#x153;Merry Christmasâ&#x20AC;? and walk away, she said.

ALL THEY HAD

â&#x20AC;&#x153;Last year there was one particular story where (the stockings) really was all they had for Christmas and they didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t tell anyone,â&#x20AC;? said Smalldon. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Their neighbour went over to bring them a turkey on Christmas Eve and they were just sitting there, staring at the stockings, and they said â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;We donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t know where it came from,â&#x20AC;&#x2122; but it really made a difference.â&#x20AC;?

The neighbour who delivered the turkey was also the one who referred the family.

Some recipients figure out where the stockings come from, and Smalldon has received plenty of positive feedback.

Last year, the Stocking Project lucked out with donations. A toy company in Kanata was closing and agreed to give volunteers the remaining stock.

But this year with many more referrals, the project is having a tougher time. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I thought maybe I would do 250 (stockings) this year, but I had 250 before Sep-

tember hit, so the doubling of the numbers is stressful,â&#x20AC;? she said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We want to make sure that we can get every single child a stocking for Christmas.â&#x20AC;?

Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not to say the initiative has not had a lot of support already. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Last year I had a gentleman show up on Christmas Eve at one oâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;clock in the afternoon and he brought gift cards and a turkey and a whole bunch of other stuff and he said, â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;There is going to be someone (who needs this). Just wait, something will happen.â&#x20AC;&#x2122; And Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m so glad he did that because not an hour later I get a frantic phone call from someone over in Morganâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Grant saying, â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;My neighbour, they didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t tell me, I just went over there, there is no Christmas for them.â&#x20AC;&#x2122; MAKING A DONATION

Donations of gifts for kids up to age 18 that would go in a stocking, as well as some things for parents or guardians, can be dropped off at the following locations: â&#x20AC;˘ 406 Arncliffe Ave., 24 hours a day. â&#x20AC;˘ 20 Redstone Ln. between, between 9 a.m. and 9 p.m. â&#x20AC;˘ Kanata Centrum at Kiwi Kraze, 3A-145 Roland Michener Dr. â&#x20AC;˘ 18 Thresher Ave., 24 hours a day.

54 West Carleton Review - Thursday, December 17, 2015

We hadn’t had the old Model T Ford for a full year.

It came to us through the simple act of a trade.

A neighbour needed sand from our gravel pit, he had no money to pay for it, and we got the old battered car instead of cash. It was that simple.

The deal was made with the shake of a hand.

Load after load of gravel was hauled by my brothers to the neighbour’s culvert, which had been washed away with the spring run-off of the Bonnechere River, and when the final load was delivered, my brother Everett drove the old Model T home.

It wasn’t much to look at.

The two front fenders were different colours, a result of the original owner trying, and failing, to paint over a deep dent, and there was a hole in the floor board in the back seat as big as a pie plate that allowed you to see the washboard road out of Northcote without looking out the window.

But it was our first car, and it opened up a whole new world for us. The time it took to ride into Renfrew with the horse was cut in half, and Mother who soon mastered the fine art of driving the old car, even ventured as far as Ottawa.

But those mismatched fenders didn’t sit well with Father. He managed to partially repair the dent with a hammer, and he said one day when he had a bit of time to spare, he would nail a piece of tin over the hole in the floorboards in the back.

And then, after the first snowfall that year (and it was a doozie), Father said it was time to think about putting the car up for the winter.

I was really upset, because I never once thought we couldn’t drive the Model T through the snow. Father pointed to the narrow tires with the stem of his pipe and said, “ya wouldn’t even get as far as the gate in the snow with those.”

Mary Cook’s Memories MARY COOK

So Father drove the car into the drive shed where it would sit until the spring thaw.

Father was pretty proud of that old car. And that fall day he decided it was only fitting that the Model T have fenders that matched. Buying new ones from Thacker’s Garage in Renfrew, even if they were available, was out of the question, so Father decided he would paint them both the same colour.

He looked over all the old cans of paint stacked on a shelf in the drive shed.

There were bits and drabs of paint; a bright green used to freshen the pump in the spring. About an inch in the bottom of another paint can was bright orange.

And then Father locked his eyes on the can of silver paint used to paint the stove pipes in the house. “By gar, there’s enough here to do the job real nice,” he said, shaking the can to make sure.

He got a paint brush that had been sitting in a pot of turpentine, gave it a few swipes with an old rag he found on the dirt floor, and without consulting Mother, began slapping the silver paint onto the two front fenders.

Father had to scrape the bottom of the paint pail to get the very last drop out, which he slathered over the already painted fenders for good measure. Well, all of this was done without consulting Mother.

It was getting dark in the drive shed when he asked me to run in the house and get Mother. “Don’t tell her about the painting ... just tell her I need her out here for a real nice surprise.”

Well, Mother threw a sweater over her house dress and went out to see what Fa-

ther wanted, with my sister Audrey close on her heels.

What he wanted, and what he expected was for Mother to be overjoyed with the new silver fenders!

She slapped her hand over her mouth, and said nothing. It was Audrey who said exactly what she thought of Father’s paint job.

She vowed she wouldn’t be caught dead in a car with silver fenders, and that’s all there was to it.

She said if she had to drive into town in it, Father could let her out at the outskirts. Well, she wouldn’t have to worry about it for a few months anyway. The car was in the drive shed for the winter.

The next day, a Saturday it was, Father rounded up the three brothers, and rolled four big blocks of wood from the wood pile into the drive shed. And as if it was as light as a feather, they hoisted up the car and put the four blocks under it, freeing the wheels from the cold dirt floor for the winter.

Audrey changed her mind about riding in the car with the silver fenders when she found out she either got in or stayed home when spring rolled round.

As for me, I thought the paint job added a touch of class to the old car. I knew we were the owners of the only car in all of Renfrew County with silver fenders, and a hole in the floor where I could see the Northcote road without even looking out a window.

58 West Carleton Review - Thursday, December 17, 2015

@ B R O A D W AY B R U Y E R E

It was a dark June night. The Royal Canadian Navy Destroyer, HMCS Algonquin was 150 miles off the cost of California. Commanding Officer Tim Kerr was preparing the crew for a two month deployment. Tim’s life was about to change…forever.

One minute Tim is running the treadmill in the ship’s gymnasium. The next thing he remembers is waking up in the US Navy Hospital in San Diego.

Tim had suffered a brain hemorrhage and serious stroke. “I was unable to us my left arm or leg,” he recalls. “I couldn’t even sit up straight.”

Even though Tim’s crew made life-saving decisions he still faced a very long road to recovery. Tim immediately began his fight to regain some of his previous life.

Tim’s journey brought him to Élizabeth Bruyère Hospital.

“Bruyère is a world-class facility,” says Tim. “They have the best people and they are focused on getting their patients up, out and back to a regular life. That’s what they did for me.”

Tim spent six months at Bruyère as a patient in the Stroke Rehabilitation Unit and as an outpatient where he continued to receive rehabilitation services.

“It was a tough six months” recalls Tim. “There were setbacks, tears and eventually…triumph, thanks to all the professionals at Bruyère.”

Tim knows he was lucky to survive. People who meet him today have no idea he once suffered a massive stroke. Tim also knows luck had nothing to do with his recovery.

“I owe my new life to the people at Bruyère and the donors who so kindly support the

work they do,” says Tim. He understands how life can change in an instant.

Bruyère has been part of Ottawa for 170 years.

“There is an urgent and real need for a strong Bruyère in our community,” he says. “Together we must ensure they have the tools they need to help us if ever and whenever we need them.”

Year-end giving at Bruyère.

“I hope people read my story and make a year-end gift in support of Bruyère.

So many people will be grateful for the support.”

YOUR END OF YEAR SUPPORT MATTERS When you support Bruyère, you help people like Tim Kerr. To learn more about Tim, please visit www.bruyere.org/ foundation.
