HELP KIDS BE KIDS... NOT PATIENTS. The best care for CHEO’s patients is truly the heart of the matter DONATE NOW SO YOUR GIFT IS DOUBLED
CHEO is embarking on a project to improve the Catheterization Lab and Interventional Suite. Creating one, technologically advanced suite will help doctors more accurately diagnose, and more gently treat, CHEO patients. Your support will make all of this a reality.
THE IMPACT WILL BE MONUMENTAL!
What an improved Catheterization Lab and Interventional Suite will mean for CHEO: •
Nearly real-time, 3D imaging guiding CHEO’s physicians as they place stents, close inter-cardiac defects (holes in the heart), enlarge cardiac vessels, perform biopsies, insert g-tubes, drain infections, deliver orthopedic care etc.
•
Provide higher quality images with fewer x-rays and the lowest possible radiation.
•
Eliminate the need for surgery in some cases.
•
Provide more accurate imaging to assist in diagnoses.
• Allow
CHEO to perform minimally invasive surgical procedures.
•
Reduce time in hospital and patient discomfort in comparison to older techniques.
Meet CHEO’s CHEO’s ambassador: ambassador : ZANDER Zander Zatylny is a seven year old cardiology patient at CHEO, and it so happens he loves golf! He was born with a serious heart malformation that required two open heart surgeries before he was two years old! To date he has had eight stents placed in his heart to ensure proper blood flow to and from his heart. With CP’s announcement to help upgrade a catheterization lab and interventional suite at CHEO, patients like Zander will benefit.

Residents along river face historic flood BY JAKE DAVIES
jake.davies@metroland.com
The worst flooding seen in West Carleton in more than a generation, had communities around the ward coming together to help one another out. Intense and prolonged rainfall in April and the beginning of May, quickly following the spring snow melt and runoff caused flooding of historic proportions creating record levels for the Ottawa River. The Ottawa River rose more than three-quarters a metre since April 27 according to ottawariver.ca. Heavy rainfall, and some snow, throughout last weekend means the river continues to peak through to May 13. By Monday, May 8, Mayor Jim Watson said 275 homes were affected in West Carleton – by far the largest number of homes affected by floodwater in the City of Ottawa. Cumberland was the next most affected region with 25 homes damaged. In Constance Bay, it was a real community effort. Around 1,000 volunteers came together to fill and deploy sandbags, control traffic, make food and care for the evacuated. The Constance Bay Buckham’s Bay Community Centre

Volunteer coordinator ‘overwhelmed with love and support’ From Front page
Constance Bay resident and lead volunteer coordinator Heather Lucente was touched by the incredible support. “I can not say enough,” she told the West Carleton Review Sunday morning, May 7. “It’s been absolutely amazing. We’ve been overwhelmed with love and support.” On Friday, there were about 200 volunteers. On Saturday, Lucente said there were 160 volunteers who signed up but guessed there were about 300 who actually came out to help. On Sunday, Lucente said 300 registered but guesstimates about 600 volunteers were on site. It looked like much more than that. By 4 p.m. Saturday, volunteers had filled and distributed 20,000 sandbags. Coun. Eli El-Chantiry says 120,000 were filled in all of West Carleton as of May 8. All that shovelling requires a lot of energy and a whole other contingent of volunteers have been providing that fuel. “Tons of food is coming
in,” Lucente said. “An enormous amount of food. We keep thinking how are we going to go through all of this food, and by the end of the day it’s gone.” On Saturday crowds of onlookers made it difficult to get work done. “We had so many people coming to take pictures, we had the police shut down the road,” Lucente said. “But now we’re running strong. I’m sure we’ll be running all day tomorrow (Monday, May 8) as well and doing disaster response all week long.” Donations have been great as well with hip waders, work gloves and shovels coming in. Home Hardware donated a load of cinder blocks. But as the water levels drop, Lucente says “our real big need will be sump pumps, generators and hoses.” WILLOLA BEACH On Thursday, May 4, lifelong residents of Willola Beach said they haven’t seen water levels like this since 1979. Brothers Ken and Glen Foley were out watching the water

Constance Bay resident and lead volunteer coordinator Heather Lucente said she thinks about 1,000 volunteers helped throughout the weekend. Around 120,000 sandbags were filled and deployed in West Carleton last weekend. rise and filling sandbags. Many houses in the tight-knit community along the Ottawa River where the Carp River drains were surrounded by water on May 4. The number may rise with more rain coming. “Some people have evacuated,” said Glen who was working his shovel. His house, for now, remains dry, but he’s not
taking any chances. “It’s going to be a real mess when the water returns to normal. There’s 40 years of debris being brought down river to our shores.” Glen said he spent five hours on May 3 burning some of that debris.bKen says the city has dropped off about three loads of sand in the area for residents to fill bags with.
Everything you need for your home design dreams
“The city takes about half an hour to arrive after you call,” Ken said. “I hear the Fitzroy Harbour dam is letting two Olympic-size pools of water through every two seconds.” Ken says one neighbour told him their Internet was down. When they called the provider about the disruption, they were told their access was underwater. Coun. Eli El-Chantiry spoke to the West Carleton Review on May 3. “If we see more rain, we might be in a bit of trouble,” he said. “We haven’t had to call for evacuations yet, but we are monitoring the situation.” Forecasts were calling for 30 to 70 millimtres of rain over the May 5 weekend. “It’s a 20-year high, according to the Mississippi Valley Conservation Area, and a bit more will make it an one hundred-year high,” El-Chantiry said. “Every phone call I receive, every e-mail I receive is about more sand and more bags.” El-Chantiry suggests anyone in need of help call his office (613-580-2475) or 311. If it is
an emergency call 911. “We’re on 24/7 now,” ElChantiry said. Mississippi Valley Conservation Area water management supervisor Gord Mountenay says “from what I’m hearing, this is the most significant flooding people have seen in decades.” Mountenay said the Mississippi River is the highest it’s been in 20-25 years. “What we’re seeing now is taking longer to settle down than it has in many years,” he told the West Carleton Review. He said the river peaked in April “and now we’re seeing an extend peak. It takes a lot of rain to do that, and that’s what we’ve got,” Mountenay said. Mountenay said it will be a couple of weeks before levels are at what we want to see for the start of the summer season. “Last week (of April) we started shutting flows down,” he said. “We had a few days of no rain and things dropped quite a bit. It will take a while to get this water through the system, but we aren’t as high as we were.”

Harbour resident inspires women with words BY JAKE DAVIES
jake.davies@metroland.com
Fitzroy Harbour resident Monika Miller hopes to inspire women around the world. The reflexologist and children’s yoga instructor is now an author as one of several contributors to The Book of Inspiration for Women by Women. “I’ve always loved helping people since I was little,” Miller said (and if you’ve met her you believe that). “This is another aspect of that. I think the book is so exciting for me. I’ve never written for a book before.” The book was created by Australian Ruth Cyster-Stuettgen, and published just this year. Each page is an inspirational message, story or theme written by women, from age seven to 84, for women of all ages. One for each day of the year. “It’s for women searching for ways to create change in their life,” Miller said. “It is kind of like the chicken soup for the soul books. You can put it on your coffee table and read a new inspiring story every time you pick it up. I think, for women, this is the way they get their inspiration.” Miller has four separate pieces in the book. “Stuettgen’s vision brought me and my fellow co-authors together
around the globe to empower each other and inspire our inner voice that says ‘you are awesome, you are meant to be here and are supposed to live a truly wonderful life,’” she said. Miller is not an author by trade, but has spent a lifetime helping people through her yoga practice and work as a reflexologist. Miller has worked for more than 18 years as a yoga instructor and has most recently focused that practice on children, specifically children with ADHD, autism and differently abled children. Miller is also a registered Canadian reflexology therapist. Reflexology is a natural healing art based on the principle there are reflexes in the feet, hands and ears which correspond with every part, gland and organ in the body. A sample of the book is available for those who would like to get an idea of what it contains, and one of Miller’s submissions is in the sample. “I’m so excited,” she said. Miller said she thought of her youth when looking for inspiration for her contribution. “I thought of a time from when I was a teenager,” Miller said. “Mental health is so important. Everybody has a bad day where they don’t feel they measure up. I had a dad

Another Sham Budget So the 2017-2018 budget is out. This year’s budget is the government’s last opportunity to convince Ontarians to give them another chance. Predictably, the government is congratulating itself on a supposedly balanced budget and a mass of new ‘investments’. But don’t be fooled. The budget isn’t really balanced. The government is hiding a $5 billion operational deficit with one-off revenues and inappropriate use of assets. Government apparatchiks have papered over a lot of what they owe with revenue from the embarrassing fire-sale of Hydro One and the carbon tax boondoggle. They’re also citing assets held by public-sector pension plans as government assets – a cheap trick which Ontarians should easily see through. But it gets worse. The budget says that Ontario’s debt will go up another 8% over the next two years to $336 billion. This means that the government has no plan to reduce Ontario’s massive debt – a debt which has more than doubled since they took power. Annual interest payments on this debt amount to $12 billion. This is just about the cost of a gas plant scandal every month. It is also significantly more than this government spends on post-secondary education and community safety combined. Ontarians deserve a better deal than this. The 2018 election can’t come soon enough!

The owners of the Diagnostic Imaging Lab located in the West Carleton Medical Centre want to expand their services but are having difficulty getting ministry approval. Cindy and Chris Hamilton took over the Diagnostic Imaging Lab last August and provide x-rays and cardiac loop monitors to the public. They primarily serve as a referral service for the 12 physicians that make up the West Carleton Family Health Team (WCFHT) but are open to the public and can serve anyone who has a referral for those services. Cindy, who has 23 years
experience in the industry, says she often finds “patients don’t realize access to the blood lab and x-ray services are open to the public.” The owners would like to add ultrasound and bone mineral density scanning services to their clinic but their application to adjust their license was rejected by the Ministry of Health. “Our response was no,” Cindy said. “The ministry said there is no unmet need in our district, which includes the City of Ottawa.” So patients in West Carleton needing those services must travel to the Arnprior Jake Davies/Metroland or the Queensway Carleton Cindy Hamilton performs an x-ray hospitals.

Information Session Baseline and Woodroffe Stormwater Management Pond Municipal Class Environmental Assessment and Functional Design May 17, 2017 6 to 9 p.m. Presentation at 7 p.m. St. Paul High School 2675 Draper Avenue By attending this information session, residents will be updated on how the City will address the community’s concerns related to the design and construction of the proposed stormwater management pond. Residents will be able to ask questions of staff and subject matter experts and hear more about the project’s next steps. This session is the last step in the public engagement process for this project. Information about the project’s background, existing conditions on the site, and pond alternatives will also be available at the meeting. The City of Ottawa has initiated this Municipal Class Environmental Assessment (Class EA) for a proposed stormwater management pond at the northeast corner of Baseline Road and Woodroffe Avenue. A stormwater management pond was initially recommended in the Pinecrest Creek/Westboro Stormwater Management Retrofit Study (2011) and underwent further assessment in the Feasibility Study for a Surface Stormwater Management Facility at Baseline Road and Woodroffe Avenue (2015).The proposed pond will provide water quality treatment and flow control for runoff from some 435 hectares that currently drain uncontrolled to Pinecrest Creek. The study process is following the requirements of a Schedule B project under the Municipal Class EA and has identified a preferred alternative and functional design for the proposed pond. Accessibility is an important consideration for the City of Ottawa. If you require special accessibility accommodation, please email your request before May 15, 2017. For more information, visit ottawa.ca/baselinewoodroffepond. If you wish to have your name added to the mailing list or ask further questions, please contact: Darlene Conway, P. Eng.

“The government thinks a 25 minute drive and six to eight-week wait time is reasonable,” Cindy said. “Ultrasound is one of the most commonly ordered tests. Any organs, prostate, ovaries, anything inside, and that is the first test. The West Carleton phy-

Another added benefit is we can help reduce wait times in other hospitals.”

Council must protect the city’s history
C
ity council will soon consider an application containing more than a touch of folly. A family in Rockcliffe Park is seeking approval to demolish a 1940’s heritage home. A folly indeed, and one council should turn down. The applicants say the house has bats, mould and asbestos. All those issues can be remedied for a small sum of money when compared to the value of the existing home – well over $2 million. And it’s a good bet the current owner didn’t skip the home inspection before plonking down millions of dollars. There’s little doubt the owner has the means to make the home as nice as it was in the ’40s. It’s equally clear the current owner – who purchased the home in the last decade – knew what they were buying. It begs the question: did they buy the home with the intention of knocking it down?
When there are people in the city without homes, knocking down a massive, elaborate, and quite livable house, just to build an even more elaborate residence is wasteful in the extreme. Beyond the irony of demolishing livable space to make new livable space, council should also consider the wastefulness in terms of actual waste. Somewhere a landfill will be a little closer to full when tons of debris and rubble arrive. And truckloads of new building materials will need to be manufactured and trucked to build the planned mansion. If the owner wants a brand new, massive house, there is land for sale within the city limits where one could construct a Kardashian-style home that the neighbours would likely accept with a shrug. Rockcliffe has history. It has character. It has homes more than a few years old, and that’s a good thing. The city should turn down any request to knock down Ottawa’s heritage.
Work still needed to make Ottawa walkable city
T
he Council on Aging of Ottawa has just released its Age-Friendly Walkability Progress Report. The council’s seniors transportation committee studied various neighbourhoods with the help of local students and other volunteers who went out and walked in the winter and reported on their findings. The timing of the report (which is available on the council’s website www.coaottawa.ca) couldn’t be better. Winter is still fresh in our memory and many of the council’s observations concern winter walking. And, speaking of timing, the report coincides with new census information on population trends in Canada. According to the 2016 census, Canadians 65 and over now outnumber Canadians 14 and under. The trend will continue. In 15 years, almost one quarter of Canadians will be 65 and older.

assign higher priority to efforts that ensure age-friendly walkability.” The point about getting people out of their cars is worth underlining. City planning policy has long been pointed in that direction, with transit expansion and the encouragement of denser population around transit hubs. So improving walkability fits right in. So does improved access to transit. It may also be that the trend to taller buildings and denser neighbourhoods will create new challenges to walkability that will need to be studied. As the Council on Aging notes, the city has been taking some steps. But the population trends dictate that the challenge will be a continuing one, as well as one with certain political implications. City politicians now know, if they didn’t know it already, that seniors will make up an increasingly large segment of the voting population. And city politicians already
know that seniors, unlike younger groups, actually turn out to vote. You can bet that city councillors will paying attention to this report. It’s in their best interests. Fortunately, it’s in the best interests of the community as well.

WCMHA battles high ice costs, low availability BY JAKE DAVIES
jake.davies@metroland.com
The high cost and limited availability of ice time puts a huge strain on West Carleton hockey parents. In fact, no one in Ottawa and the surrounding area, such as Lanark and Renfrew counties, pays more for ice time then West Carleton Minor Hockey Association (WCMHA). These were some of the hard truths the approximately 66 parents learned while attending the WCMHA annual general meeting on Tuesday, April 25. “There is no association in our district that has a bigger challenge when it comes to cost,” 2016-2017 WCMH president Hylton Jorssen said. “We compete with a lot of organizations for ice — we’re in a battle.” West Carleton pays an average of $233 per hour for ice time. Kanata, Stittsville, and Osgoode pay an average of $181 an hour while Carleton Place, pays $133, Almonte pays $120 and Perth pays $104. The discrepancy comes from the Public-Private Partnership formed to build the Cavanagh Sensplex arena in 2007. The private partner, Canadian Sports Management Incorporated (CSMI). Under the partnership program, WCMHA purchases 60 per cent of their ice time from the City of Ottawa and 40 per cent from CSMI. While the city charges $181 an hour, CSMI charges $311 an hour. “It’s our number 1 complaint,” past president Chris Bryson said. “And we’re short 60 hours of ice time a month. Over five months, that adds up. It’s quite the challenge.” “We have been unwilling to compromise on ice time for our
kids,” Jorssen said. “As a result, we have the highest registration fees in the area. Per kid, we pay more than anyone else.” There are only two indoor ice pads in West Carleton to serve the roughly 408 minor hockey players, as well as the other organizations that use the facilities. The WCMHA could rent ice outside of their district and would still see savings despite paying out-of-town rates. For example, the out-of-town rate for Carleton Place is $167. Cheaper than the City of Ottawa rate and half the price of CSMI’s rates. The only problem is, there is no spare ice time available to rent. “There are very limited options for us,” Jorssen said. But the WCMHA leadership does see a solution. “The city subsidizes the ice we have to buy from CSMI,” Jorssen said. Because most of the costs for minor hockey are fixed, there really is only one thing WCMHA members can do. “The big opportunity is fundraising,” treasurer Doug Newman said. “I know it’s a lot of work, but it’s the only way to get costs down.” The WCMHA retired their phone book fundraising program due to obvious reasons, but managed to raise $5,000 through their Jerseys and Jewels event which also raised $1,000 for Roger Neilson House. The club hopes to raise another $5,000 this year with a golf tournament scheduled for September. “If we can make it annual that would be great and help fill the hole left by the end of the phone book program,” marketing director Sheila Lyttle-Clark said.
The treasurer’s report showed income in 2016-2017 increased by almost $8,000 to $307,839. Big ticket items in 2016-2017 for the WCMHA were ice rentals at $182,061, referee wages at $28,693 and insurance at $19,100 adding to a total of $285,540 in expenses. Overall registration was up $13,000. The WCMHA reserves are just under $60,000. The annual general meeting also held elections for executive positions. Many of the positions had only one candidate, but this year, voters could vote yes or no on the candidate if they felt the person was not suitable. The former director of hockey operations, Del Brown, will be the new WCMHA president in 2017-2018. Murray Crowder was voted to the first vice president position. Armando Correia was voted to the second vice president position — the only contested position in the election. Josh Batley was named director of hockey operations. Ross Morgan is the new treasurer and Tracy Caughell will return as the secretary. Brown made a few comments following the election. “We’ve improved our program, but I think we can improve it some more,” president elect Brown said. “(Past president) Chris wanted people on the board for the right reasons. Hylton brought in transparency. We have some rock stars on the board. Tracy is more than just a secretary, she’s our project manager and our task master. We have the best ice scheduler ever (Debbie Heuchert). We’ve got a lot of work to do, and I am looking forward to it.”

Harvey’s memory honoured with West Carleton road name
BEECHWOOD: EXPLORE AND DISCOVER
BY JAKE DAVIES
jake.davies@metroland.com
Riddell Drive near Shirley’s Bay will be renamed in honour of a lifelong West Carleton boy who passed away far too young. The road will be renamed to Cameron Harvey Drive and the name changed will be marked by a small ceremony on Friday, May 12 at 1 p.m. attended by Cameron’s family, Ward Coun. Eli El-Chantiry and other dignitaries. As part of the City of Ottawa emergency services policy, no City of Ottawa road name can be duplicated within the city. Prior to amalgamation in 2000, many road names were duplicated across the region, especially in the rural areas. Over the last 17 years, the duplicate road with the fewer number of residents was chosen as the one that had to change its name. This policy was created to help avoid confusion when first responders were responding to emergencies. Riddell Drive was one of those duplicate roads. Coun. El-Chantiry said he knew exactly what he wanted to do about the issue. “Why don’t we have the road named after a young man who died young,” he told the West Carleton Review. Cameron died following a car accident in October of 2009. Cameron was on the way to help build a house in Kanata as part of his studies in Algonquin College’s house building program. Cameron was a life

In November 2016, eight members of the Galetta lawn bowling club travelled to Sarasota, Fla., to compete in the U.S. Open lawn bowling championships. The tournament saw bowlers from all over the world coming together to compete in a weeklong event. Players from North Ireland, Scotland, United Kingdom, Israel, Argentina, the U.S. and Canada, just to name a few, participated in the men’s and women’s singles, pairs and fours events. Faced with some challenging competition, the bowlers from Galetta exceeded all expectations. Notable results included top 10 finishes in the men’s singles, pairs and fours events, as well as a top 20 finish in the women’s singles event. The highlight of the tournament, however, was a bronze medal finish in the women’s pairs event by Sandra Jefferies and Flo Silvestro. And while the effects of a long winter have tried to fade the memories of the U.S. Open, these bowlers, along with the other members of the Galetta lawn bowling club, are now busy preparing the greens for another summer and are looking to attract potential

Health care close to home good for patients and family members “Nine doors down.” That’s how Eric Pottle describes the distance from his AGH hospital bed to the home he has shared with Sharron, his wife of 39 years. The close proximity to home consoles Eric, although he won’t head home in the foreseeable future.
A chance mishap on a Saturday afternoon last summer changed Eric’s and Sharron’s lives forever. They were sitting in their backyard with a few friends on August 27, when Eric stood up from his chair. He tripped and fell on his back, which was already damaged by a chronic spinal condition. Eric was rushed to the AGH’s Emergency Department where the doctor on duty immediately called the X-ray Department, which provides 24-hour service for emergency cases. A medical radiation technician rushed the AGH’s new digital portable X-ray machine to the ER and took an X-ray on the spot. After reading the X-ray, the doctor diagnosed a broken neck. Eric was stabilized and then transported to Ottawa where specialists performed surgery.
Two months later, Eric returned to AGH, first to the Medical-Surgical Unit and, on November 4, to the Rosamond Complex Continuing Care Unit. Eric is paralyzed now, with only limited mobility in his left hand. He receives his food and medication through a feeding tube inserted in his stomach. AGH nursing staff provide Eric’s personal care, while an automatic lift assists in moving him between his hospital bed and wheelchair. In a few weeks, Eric will be fitted with
an electric wheelchair. He’s looking forward to that, “though I don’t know how long it will take to learn to drive it.”
Eric has adjusted remarkably well to his new life with the help of Sharron,
We are so lucky that Eric is here in AGH… It’s like a second home for him. who visits him every day. And Sharron offers generous praise to their family physician, Dr. Christiane Deschenes, who is also AGH’s Chief of Staff, and others on the AGH health care team. “We are so grateful to Dr. Deschenes. She has been our doctor for over 35 years. We don’t know what we would have done without her. Dr. Heather Abramenko was on duty when Eric was rushed to the ER. The nurses, the physios and all the staff are so caring and good to us,” Sharron adds. The Pottles also appreciate the critical importance of AGH’s diagnostic imaging (DI) equipment in providing Eric’s care and comfort—first the X-ray machine used to diagnose Eric’s broken neck in AGH’s ER, and more recently an abdominal X-ray to check placement

of his feeding tube. Each time, DI staff wheeled the X-ray equipment to Eric’s bedside. “The portable equipment makes such a difference to our patients with mobility issues,” says Dr. Deschenes. “They avoid the ordeal of being moved and brought downstairs to the DI Department. The new digital X-ray equipment provides even greater benefits,” says Dr. Deschenes. “The image quality in digital machines provides better diagnostic accuracy, and the digital machines have much lower radiation.” Those benefits, and pretty well all the care Eric has received at AGH, are not
lost on the Pottles. They are also thrilled that Eric is close to home. “We are so lucky that Eric is here in AGH,” Sharron says. “It’s like a second home for him. It is so much easier for me to visit and it’s so nice for Eric’s peace of mind.”
Being close to home means a lot to the Pottles, especially after Sharron’s experience in the first two months after Eric’s injury. Two days after Eric’s accident, Sharron had knee replacement surgery. The surgery had been previously scheduled, and despite her worries

AGH launches $4-million Put Yourself in the Picture campaign to ensure patients have access to the best in diagnostic imaging “Put Yourself in the Picture” is what representatives of the Almonte General Hospital-Fairview Manor Foundation are asking community members to do in an effort to raise $ 4 million for new diagnostic imaging equipment at the Hospital.
“AGH counts 100 percent on funding from the Foundation to ensure our staff has reliable, up-to-date equipment with which to treat our patients,” said Mary Wilson Trider, President & CEO. “We have recently purchased two new digital ultrasound machines, a new portable, digital X-ray machine and a new digital X-ray suite, all of which cost the Hospital
$1.8 million. We are now counting on the Foundation to pay off loans for these vital tools as quickly as possible to minimize our borrowing costs.”
The Hospital moved to purchase the new equipment because both the old ultrasound machine and the old X-ray equipment were more than 10 years old. Finding replacement parts was becoming increasingly difficult and wait times for ultrasound were becoming too long. Plus, the new equipment is better for the patients. “The image quality in digital machines provides better diagnostic accuracy,” said Dr. Chris Deschenes, Chief of Staff at AGH.
AGH also intends to purchase a CT scanner, subject to the approval of the Champlain Local Health Integration Network (CLHIN) and the Ministry of Health and Long-Term Care. Part of the approval process depends on confirming a funding source. The AGH-FVM Foundation has committed to raising $2.2 million to pay for this new and urgently needed diagnostic tool. AGH currently does not have CT scanning so patients requiring a CT scan are sent to another hospital.
Long-time Almonte residents Paul and Rhonda Virgin were announced as Put Yourself in the Picture campaign cochairs. They were then presented with three cheques: • The staff, volunteers, board members and physicians at AGH and the Fairview Manor have raised $100,000 to date through a “Family” or internal campaign.
• Long-time Hospital and Manor supporters Art and Helen Levi presented the Virgins with a cheque for $250,000 as lead donors to the campaign.

• Representatives of the Foundation including Art Solomonian, current board chair, and Al Lunney, past board chair, gave $600,000 from the Foundation’s reserve, bringing the campaign to $1 million so far.
Long-time Hospital and Manor supporters Art and Helen Levi “Quality health care is part of what makes a community a place to put down roots and raise a family,” said Co-Chair Rhonda Virgin. “We can never take our quality of life for granted and must continuously work together to maintain and enhance it.”
“That’s why we are asking individuals, businesses, groups, schools and community organizations to join us and to ‘put themselves in the picture’,” said Co-Chair Paul Virgin.

Get in the swing for AGH golf tourney on June 16 Golf enthusiasts, take note! Registration is now open for the 2017 Almonte General Hospital Golf Classic, which will be held on Friday, June 16.
AGH staff Nicole Proulx and Diane Villeneuve with Eric about Eric, doctors advised her to go ahead with the surgery. When she was released from hospital a week later, she was confined to a wheelchair. Friends drove Sharron to Ottawa every day to visit Eric during her recovery period, until she was able to drive again. “Those two months were dreadful,” Sharron recalls. “It’s been so much better since Eric was moved back here.”
Now Sharron visits Eric daily, as do other family members. Three of Eric’s “coffee buddies” also drop in twice a week for an afternoon chat. Then there are regular workout sessions in the AGH’s
Physiotherapy Department where physio staff play a CD of country music that Eric recorded back in 2014. The CD’s title, That Foghorn Sound, recalls Eric’s childhood in Conception Bay, Newfoundland. Eric, who retired in 2000 at the age of 60, used to sing and play guitar and violin with local musicians before the accident. He even fondly recalls performing for patients and residents at AGH and the Fairview Manor over the years. Now he is on the receiving end of those recreational visits from community-minded entertainers. Just one more benefit of being here at AGH, close to home.
PUT YOURSELF IN THE PICTURE
Guido Patrice, owner of Your Independent Grocer in Almonte, returns this year as chair of the 15th annual golf tourney after a few years’ hiatus. “I am very excited and proud to be chair of this year’s AGH golf tournament,” said Patrice. “There is something special about not only the AGH, but this golf tournament, and especially the people who support it, volunteer and play in it. We are so fortunate to have a hospital in our community that offers the highest care for the people it serves,” Patrice added. The tournament will begin with a shotgun start at 11:30 a.m. and includes a barbecue lunch, an 18-hole round of golf, a shared golf cart and steak dinner, as well as a silent auction, a live auction, a 50-50 draw, and several other contests and prizes. The tourney is the centrepiece of the AGH-FVM Foundation’s annual
fundraising campaign, said Joyce Delahunt, chair of the Fundraising Committee for the AGH-FVM’s Foundation. “Last year, the campaign raised $60,000. We’re expecting to outdo that total this year,” Delahunt said, adding that the funds will go to the purchase of new diagnostic imaging equipment for AGH. “The event has always attracted a large crowd of golf enthusiasts,” said Delahunt. “We greatly appreciate everyone who contributes to this worthwhile event, from the players to the sponsors, and everyone who works on planning, organizing and the game itself.” The main sponsors this year are Karson Konstruction, Bank of Montreal, Bean Chevrolet Buick GMC Ltd. in Carleton Place and Levi Home Hardware Building Centre in Almonte.

Put Yourself in the Picture 365 days a year: Join our Circle of Friends monthly giving society Almonte General Hospital and Fairview Manor have a very special society of supporters, and we’d like you to join them. Circle of Friends donors make a monthly donation because they know that the Hospital is there for them 24/7, 365 days a year, and they want to be there for the Hospital every day of the year, too. Last year, for instance, our Birthing Centre had close to 500 deliveries. That averages out to more than one baby born each day.
Our Emergency Department had more than 15,000 visits in 2016. That averages out to 41 patients seeking treatment in the ER each day of the year.
Almost every medical journey begins with an accurate diagnosis, which means our Diagnostic Imaging Department sees patients every day, too. Last year, 4,551 ultrasound examinations were conducted; that’s about 12 per day. Our X-ray staff was even busier with about 18 per day, totalling 6,701 for all of 2016.
The Put Yourself in the Picture campaign is the perfect time for you to join our special Circle of Friends monthly giving society. Your support will mean better quality images, faster more accurate diagnostic tests, shorter wait times and better health care closer to home. Your donation will automatically be withdrawn each month or put on your credit card (good if you
collect reward points!). At the end of the year, you will receive one income tax receipt, which cuts down on our overhead expenses as well. You can cancel your monthly gift any time by contacting our office. If you join now you will receive special recognition to help show others that “You’re in the Picture” for health care close to home.
This offer is only available to Circle of Friends society members to thank them for their ongoing, monthly support, and so they can show people how much they care about the care provided at the Almonte General Hospital.

was dedicated in memory of Brenda Robertson. For library patrons who visited the Fitzroy Harbour and Constance Bay library branches between the years 1998 and 2014, the person most likely greeting and serving them with her warm smile was Brenda Robertson, who was public service supervisor at the branches for over 15 years. Sadly Brenda passed away at the age of 63 last November.
Not only did Brenda volunteer at each of the Diefenbooker Classic events, but she also served as the volunteer co-ordinator on the steering committee from 2014 to 2015 during her retirement. It is in recognition of Brenda’s invaluable service and contributions to the library and the community that the Diefenbooker steering committee decided to hold this year’s Diefenbooker Classic in her memory.

Also surviving is her very special niece, Jennifer (Stephen) Johnson and their children, Tabitha, Brendan, and Aidan. She was blessed with many nieces and nephews and cousins too many to list, as well. Lyn was a long time resident of Glen Cairn where she and Ron moved in 1971 to raise their family. She graduated from the Belleville General Hospital nursing program but left nursing to stay home with her children and to allow them the long summer vacations that Ron had as a teacher which they spent happily camping across Canada. Lyn devoted countless hours to volunteer activities in her community and she built many strong friendships within the UCW of Glen Cairn United Church and with Beta Sigma Phi. She returned to work as a special education teacher’s assistant after Susan left home and was fortunate to spend her final years at Glen Cairn Public School in her neighbourhood. She was a creative and talented artist and crafter who enjoyed painting, knitting, sewing, and in recent years Swedish weaving and she brought those hobbies with her when she moved in 2002 to White Lake. She also took a lot of pleasure from cooking and travelling and was able to indulge in both with her family and large circle of friends. Her heart disease slowed her down in recent years, but she did as much as she could when she was able and enjoyed every second! Please join with her family and friends on Saturday, May 20th from 12:30-3 at the Lion’s Den Community Centre at 170 Castlefrank Rd in Kanata for a celebration of her life. Before she died, we planned a party with her favourite poutine and Caesars and with lots of laughter and memories of a life well lived. I hope that those who knew and loved Mom can come and share their memories with us.

Letter: Councillor photos Editor: As a regular reader of the West Carleton Review, I have noticed repeatedly over the years that our councillor is displayed multiple times in one edition. Whether intentional or not, I find this type of extensive coverage unfair, especially to those who may decide to challenge for the seat in the upcoming election such as myself. As a sitting councillor, I would expect to see periodical coverage. However I would argue your coverage goes far beyond the norm. On top of him being on the front cover and inside as is normal for information bulletins and updates, he often has three or more additional photos from other events. Obviously many people attend the events all over the area, whether they be the organizers, the speakers or simply attendees. These are the people that make the area tick much more than any politician could or ever will. Many interesting people and other politicians represent the area, but nobody comes close to the amount of attention given to our councillor. It is my understanding that this has been pointed out to your paper before by the runner-up in the last municipal election, yet it continues. I suggest that you be more careful with how much attention you provide to any one person, especially a politician, or you run the risk of appearing to favour that person, which is not something a news organization should give even the appearance of doing. Brendan Gorman Kinburn, ON Former candidate for Ward 5 City of Ottawa, West Carleton-March
At West Carleton Legion SPECIAL TO THE REVIEW
The West Carleton Legion Branch 616 was designated as a Red Cross Emergency Centre during the flooding crisus in the area. The Red Cross set up cots at the Legion Hall for anyone needing a place to sleep. The Legion provided meals for evacuees and emergency workers throughout the crisis. Royal Canadian Legion Branch 616 West Carleton will be holding its annual general meeting and elections on Thursday, May 18 at 7:30 p.m. Officers from the Kanata Legion Branch 638 will be on hand to officiate. Refreshments will be available after the proceedings. Plans for the celebration of Canada’s 150th birthday are underway for the West Carleton Legion, with events being planned for Friday, June 30 and Saturday, July 1. Condolences are extended to the family of former Branch 616 member Eleanor Crawley. She was a member of the Branch 616 executive for many years. Branch 6165 recently hosted the annual Seniors Games darts tourney, which was won by the team of Linda Cassidy and Maryjane Strelbisky. The team of Dave Rockburn and Arleen Morrow were second, while the pairing of Gord Johnson and Maggie Gibson placed third. The Ladies Auxiliary is holding its annual yard and craft sale on Saturday, June 3 from 8 a.m. to 2 p.m. Tables are $10 each. The event will be held inside the Legion Hall if the weather is bad. The next meeting of the Ladies Auxiliary of Branch 616 will be held on Monday, June 5 at 7 p.m. The dart leagues at Branch 616 are winding up for the season. The ladies’ darts windup party is being held this Saturday, May 13 with a prime rib dinner followed by presentations and entertainment by Lisa Kopil. The men’s darts windup party is slated for Saturday, May 27. Don’t forget the TGIF dinner that is held every Friday at 5:30 p.m. at the West Carleton Legion Hall. It’s $8.85 plus tax per person. Children under nine years of age are $5, while toddlers are free. Please show your support for Canada’s troops and their families and to the families of the 158 soldiers killed in Afghanistan by wearing red on Fridays. The West Carleton Legion Branch 616 of the Royal Canadian Legion is located at 377 Allbirch Rd. in Constance Bay. West Carleton Review - Thursday, May 11, 2017 23

etting invited to a birthday party didn’t happen very often. Birthdays, if celebrated at all, were left to the family. And if your birthday was close to Easter, or Christmas, like mine was, all you got was cake with well-used candles on it. There would be no money for even the simplest of presents. But Two-Mile-Herman’s home was different. There were 11 children in his family, some of them married and on farms of their own, and there was young Cora, who was my age, and when her birthday rolled around, those of us who were in her grade were simply invited by an older brother or sister at recess at the Northcote FOR SALE
of the butterscotch suckers gathered together with an elastic band, and bought at Briscoe’s General Store for a nickel a bunch. It didn’t take long for the boys to separate from the girls, going outside to play tag, shoot tin cans off the fence with their slingshots, or sitting on the pump platform playing marbles. Cora’s friends elected to stay inside, never taking our eyes off the big mile high cake in the School. And so, one Saturday, it was an everyday occurrence to centre of the kitchen table. Cora’s mother eventually my brother Everett drove me see them come to blows behind went to the back door, banged over to the Barr Line in the the Northcote School over a wooded spoon on the bottom buggy for Cora’s birthday party. something as simple as failing All Cora’s friends from school to hit the ball, or make it to first of a tin pot, and the boys tore into the kitchen and with us girls were there, as well as various base. circled the huge table.

in wax paper, including a whole dime. No one knew who would get the dime. It depended entirely on where Cora’s mother cut into the cake. I was told by Mother before I left home that if I was the lucky one, I was to hand the dime over to Cora, which I didn’t think the least bit fair. Well, I needn’t have worried, because Three-Mile-Herman got it, and that’s when the fight started. Two-Mile told his cousin to hand it over to his sister Cora, but Three-Mile already had it in his pocket. Two-Mile threw himself at Three-Mile and they went rolling on the kitchen floor barely missing the cook stove. Cora’s mother simply went to the pump in the kitchen,

pumped out a dipper of water, and threw it over the two boys, which brought the fight to a sudden halt. She just stood there with the dipper in her hand, and her arm stretched out. ThreeMile knew what she was after, and he pulled the wax paperwrapped dime from his pocket and handed it over, which was then handed over to Cora. Cora licked the cake off the wax paper, and tore upstairs with the dime to put it away for safekeeping. The party was over. Interested in an electronic version of Mary’s books?

Karen McCrimmon Serving Constituents of Kanata-Carleton
Member of Parliament Kanata-Carleton Flooding in West Carleton We are currently in the midst of a heavier-than-normal spring run-off along the Ottawa River, and as a result numerous communities along the river are experiencing flooding. We should all take precautions and make sure we stay safe during this time. Talk to your children about the dangers of playing around the high waters. Reach out to your neighbours to see if they need any assistance. Sand and sandbags are being made available at: the Constance Bay Community Centre, at Moorhead and Willola, the Morris Island Conservation parking lot in Fitzroy Harbour; and Greenland at Armitage in Dunrobin. If you or someone you know is in need of help, please call 311 or contact our office at 613-592-3469.
Mental Health Week Every year during the first week of May we recognize Mental Health Week, an annual national event to encourage people from all walks of life to learn, talk, reflect and engage with others on all issues relating to mental health. Mental Health Week reminds us all that it is important to continue the discussions on the subject, in an effort to reduce the stigma of mental illness. We should all encourage one another to rally together and provide support to all members of our community.
Ottawa Muslim Women’s Dinner I was honoured to join MP Anita Vandenbeld and Councillor Marianne Wilkinson at the 16th annual Festival of Friendship Dinner, hosted by the Ottawa Muslim Women’s Organization at the St. Elias Centre. The dinner was tremendous and the company was even better. The evening’s event benefitted the Shano Bejkosalaj Memorial Research Bursary for Children with Autism Spectrum Disorder at Ottawa Children’s Treatment Centre. This is truly an excellent cause, and funding will be of tremendous benefit to children in our riding. Thank you again for a wonderful evening.
Door Knocking This past Sunday I spent the afternoon with an incredible team of volunteers knocking on constituents’ doors. It was a great opportunity to hear their concerns and recommendations, and the feedback and discussions were great! As the community’s representative on Parliament Hill, it is so important to hear first-hand the many, differing views of residents. Thank you to those who shared their opinions and I look forward to continuing the door knocking throughout the spring and summer.
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.

The scarecrow, the tin man and the lion, along with the yellow brick road, the Emerald City and the Wicked Witch of the West, were all in Fitzroy Harbour on Tuesday, May 2. Dorothy and her dog Toto were there as well, among others including the munchkins, flying monkeys, Auntie Em and Uncle Henry, all from The Wizard of Oz — that famous 1939 movie starring Judy Garland which has become a classic for both film and stage. All of these characters came alive in the production of The Wizard of Oz at St. Michael Catholic School in Fitzroy Harbour on May 2, complete with the Wizard of Oz herself — yes, that’s right, the wizard in this production was female. The 55-minute production generated a standing ovation at its evening performance, which was attended by city of Ottawa West Carleton-March Coun. Eli El-Chantiry. He was among those who rose to their feet and applauded as the musical drama came to its end. The musical told the story of Dorothy Gale of Kansas, along with her dog Toto, being swept away by a tornado to the land of Oz — where she encounters the munchkins, apple-laden trees, aromatic flowers, the Emerald City, the gatekeeper, the Wizard of Oz, the Wicked Witch of the West, the Good Witch Glinda and more. See DOROTHY, page 27
Dorothy meets scarecrow, tin man and lion Continued from page 26
But, thanks to a pair of red slippers and knowing that there is “no place like home,” Dorothy and Toto eventually return home to Auntie Em and Uncle Henry in Kansas, leaving behind their new friends — the scarecrow, the tin man and the lion. The scarecrow, wanting a brain, received a diploma from the University of Omaha, while the tin man received a much-desired heart and the lion benefited from a drink of courage. Ava McKnight played the role of Dorothy in this The Wizard of Oz play, while Dakota Swire performed as Toto. Eowyn Tomiczek was Auntie Em, while Niko Spahich
was Uncle Henry. The trio of the scarecrow, tin man and lion came to life thanks to Mason Hunt as the scarecrow; Thomas Blondin as the tin man; and Henry Gallant as the lion. Raeleah Koradi was Glinda the Good Witch, while Skyanne MacDonald was the Wicked Witch of the West. Avro Gallant was the Wizard of Oz. Others in the cast were Haley Chupick, Cole Nephin and Kale Davis-Jeanveaux as munchkin leaders; Calli Macdonald, Cassie Brisson, Holly Nickerson, Maya McKnight,
Katka Danko and Ella Peever as munchkin dancers; Colton Cavanagh and Marysia Arnkvarn as trees; Viktor Arnkvarn as the gatekeeper; Kieren Koradi, Will Broderson, Jacob Nephin and Adam Abercrombie as flying monkeys; Marley Broderson, Macayla Suess and Connor Booth as the narrators; Haley Lepine, Emily Nash, Hailey DavisJeanveaux, Declan Davey, Payton Muis, Maddy Hamilton and Savannah Swire as chorus members; Hunter Shulist and Bradley Hanna as tornadoes; and Gabby Bellinger, Lily McRae, Madison McClymont
and Olive Hamilton as little munchkins. Those behind-the-scenes for this production were Natalie Verberk for costumes; T.J. Blondin and Samantha Swire for sets; Tricia Peever, Danielle Graham and Michelle Tomiczek for makeup; Debbie Collins for hair; Julia Verberk, Dylan Swire and Ryan McCarthy as the set crew; Owen Peever for tech; Josh Collins for the trailer; Kenyon MacDonald, Carter Jardine and Brandon Carroll as ushers; and Sean Lancaster, Mark Brisson and Donna Rousselle for photos and video.

Getting your child to the completion of their high school education can be an exciting and busy time. By this point in their final year, most students have thought about what their next steps are and are starting to make arrangements for what will happen in September. Unfortunately, our children are very rarely self-supporting by this stage of their lives which leads to the big dilemma of - who is to pay for these post-secondary education expenses? When parents separate, their financial obligations to their children are typically set out in the child support guidelines. These obligations are set out very clearly for children under the age of majority but when children turn 18, the entitlement to ongoing support is not as straightforward. There can be an ongoing obligation to pay monthly child support for a child who

is over the age of 18, depending on the circumstances, and there can be an ongoing obligation to contribute to that child’s special and extraordinary expenses. Post-secondary education costs may qualify as a special and extraordinary expense which parents could have an obligation to continue to contribute towards long after their child has turned 18. Determining which types of expenses qualify, how much each parent should contribute towards the expense and what is a reasonable contribution to expect from the child is not always easy to do. Seeking advice from an experienced family law lawyer can provide parents with the information needed to understand their obligations when it comes to post-secondary education expenses and supporting their children beyond the age of majority.

Spring in full bloom at fashion show BY JOHN CURRY
john.curry@metroland.com
Goodbye, winter. Hello, spring. Spring may be a little late arriving this year, but it was in full bloom at the Kinburn Community Centre on Wednesday evening (May 3) for the 12th annual fundraising fashion show hosted by Bethel St. Andrew’s United Church of Fitzroy Harbour. Not only were there floral centrepieces and tablecloths of various spring colours where the more than 100 ladies in attendance were seated, but many of the fashions modelled from Nancy’s Impressions of Carleton Place also featured bright colours and designs — a change from the darker colours normally associated with winter clothing. And then there was the music. Not spring birds chirping, but something just as pleasant: the keyboard sounds of Rick Leben. The six ladies who modelled the fashions from Nancy’s Impressions
— a Carleton Place shop that opened in 1983 and has done this particular fashion show for three years now — were all members of the congregation of Bethel St. Andrew’s United Church. These models were Susie Grohn, Janet MacLeod, Rachael Tindale, Janelle Armstrong, Nancy Hayley and Sandra Preece. A variety of fashions were modelled during the show. Sandra Preece showed an outfit by a new Italian brand being carried by Nancy’s Impressions this year, offering unique looks thanks to the use of natural fibres. Rachael Tindale sported an outfit boasting colours of spring — red, yellow and blue. Janelle Armstrong wowed the crowd with her Bermuda shorts, something with a unique length that can be flattering for some. Commentator Nancy Code of Nancy’s Impressions noted that there is a trend today for easier-fitting, softflowing tops that are very feminine in appearance and easy to wear. See SILENT AUCTION, page 30

She also noted in her remarks during the show that while black dress pants are a staple in wardrobes, their look can be easily changed by wearing a floating, poncho-like top with them. When Janelle Armstrong modelled a black dress, Code noted that while everyone should have a “little black dress” in their wardrobe, this particular one was a real “showstopper.” And judging by the audience reaction, that’s just what it was. Indeed, it was the models’ final stroll around the hall in which they modelled dresses that drew the most reactions. Rachael Tindale’s black and white print dress was an example of the increased detail which this year’s dress fashions are sporting. Janet MacLeod, wearing a sporty hat, looked sharp with her coral dress with sheer overlay. Susie Grohn’s white and black vertically striped summer dress drew applause. In addition to the fashion show, there was also a silent auction with a variety of items up for grabs — including a quilted table top, barbecue tools, assorted jams and jellies, a crocheted baby blanket, a personal care basket and more.

A new attraction but not from Chippendales BY JOHN CURRY john.curry@metroland.com
Next year’s annual fashion show hosted by Bethel St. Andrew’s United Church of Fitzroy Harbour is going to have a new attraction — men. Yes, that’s right. MC Judy Waddell announced at the beginning of this year’s 12th annual fashion show at the Kinburn Community Centre in Kinburn on Wednesday, May 3 that men would be serving at the tables at next year’s show. She said that this is certainly something to look forward to for next year. She said that they won’t be from Chippendales (a renowned male striptease dance revue) but rather men from the church’s congregation who will be serving the tea/coffee and goodies to the ladies at the show. This year, Heidi Wieler of the Western Ottawa Community Resource
Centre organized a group of female volunteers who handled these refreshment and goodies duties at the show. The opening remarks also paid tribute to Mary Pakarchuk, a United Church Women member who was the team leader for the organization of this year’s fashion show. She unfortunately could not attend the event. This annual fashion show is a major fundraiser for Bethel St. Andrew’s United Church of Fitzroy Harbour. This year, for the third straight year, the fashions were provided by Nancy’s Impressions of Carleton Place. The store opened by Nancy Code in 1983 as Impressions, but everyone began referring to it as Nancy’s and so the name was changed to Nancy’s Impressions. This year’s fashion show saw sunny weather, a change from the year before when the event experienced blizzardlike weather conditions.

Linda’s HairWorks closes after 26 years Linda Colosimone retires BY JOHN CURRY john.curry@metroland.com
Linda Colosimone has been a licensed professional hairdresser and barber for more than 46 years. Remarkable. She has operated her own shop, Linda’s HairWorks at 5051 Highway 17 E. between Galetta Sideroad and Arnprior for 26 years. Awesome. And now she has retired after serving a host of loyal and appreciative clients. Amazing. But what is even more remarkable, awesome and amazing is the fact that Linda has accomplished all of this despite being profoundly deaf since she was four months old. Communication with clients has never been an issue. Linda and her clients would write notes back and forth or clients would show Linda a picture from her collection of hairstyling magazines
and samples, indicating what style or colour they wanted. In addition, her homebased shop benefits from a special light system that has been installed. A light flashes in several areas of the home including in her hairdressing shop in the basement when the doorbell rings (provided the doorbell is pressed five times as a notice on the door states) or when the phone rings (a different light pattern is activated than when the doorbell rings). This allowed Linda to run her shop alone when her husband Rick was away at work. Linda became deaf when she was four months old and was dropped by her violent and alcoholic young father. A fever from the inJohn Curry/Metroland juries that she suffered from Linda Colosimone (right), who has retired after more than 46 years as a licensed professional hairdresser and barber with the this resulted in her loss of last 26 years running her own shop Linda’s HairWorks at 5051 Highway 17E in West Carleton near Arnprior, gives her husband hearing.

Crafting, gardening and travelling now for Linda Continued from page 32
At a residential school for the deaf in Belleville, Linda excelled at hairdressing. In addition, her mother’s best friend, who was a hairdresser, helped to train her for the profession. She obtained her hairdressing license and established her own shop in Belleville. It was then that she met her husband Rick who lived in Ottawa but was doing some work in Belleville in his job with the Canadian Hearing Society. Linda and Rick married, with Linda moving to Ottawa where she worked at different hairdressing shops. Then, in 1991, she opened her own shop Linda’s HairWorks in their recently built new home at 5051 Highway 17 E. in West Carleton, just outside Arnprior. She developed a clientele ranging from Ottawa and Kanata to West Carleton and Arnprior. She operated full time from Monday to Saturday for many years until about five years ago when she reduced her shop hours to Wednesday, Thursday and Friday. This was so that she could enjoy weekends with her husband Rick as they travelled in their trailer. With Rick retiring from his job last January, Linda decided to retire as well with April 28 being her last day running her hairdressing shop. She received many lovely retirement gifts from her clients who were so loyal over the years and with whom she had a lot of fun. In the past, when Rick has been on holidays, he and Linda have travelled extensively in their trailer including trips to Calgary, Virginia, North Carolina, South Carolina and even Flor-
ida. This travelling is going to continue in their retirement years. But Linda, in her retirement, will be doing other things as well. “She’s a woman with a lot of talents,� her husband Rick says about her. One of these talents is crafts, especially knitting and crocheting. Over the years, she has sold her craft items in her hairdressing shop and sometimes with a friend at local markets. Linda also has a green thumb as she is an avid gardener, another hobby that is going to keep her busy in her retirement. But Linda acknowledges that it is going to take a while to become comfortable in retirement, admitting that she will miss her customers. Her husband Rick confirms this, saying that Linda really enjoyed her job and loved her customers. As a hairdresser, Linda was particularly good at streaks when that was a popular style. But where Linda really excelled was with her shampooing. She had a special touch in massaging the head and making a customer feel good thanks to the shampooing. Customers are going to miss this special “Linda touch.� Linda also was a good barber to her many men and children customers. Her shop included two chairs, two dryers and a shampooing sink. In addition, just outside the shop was a sofa on which customers could wait while watching TV. Linda and her husband Rick are also active

Security, drainage are concerns for Carp Road Corridor BIA SPECIAL TO THE REVIEW
The Carp Road Corridor BIA is the voice of businesses located along the Carp Road from Highway 417 north to near March Road.
The BIA is planning to meet with Ottawa Police Services to discuss security in the Carp Road Corridor and how owners can be protected from vandalism and theft.
A number of business owners along the corridor have provided information to the BIA about vehicle damage on weekends as well as breaking into equipment and materials theft. The BIA will be taking this information forward as it discusses with the police matters such as the timing of police patrols and their frequency. Last year the City of Ottawa moved to charge rural property owners a fee for stormwater services as the city spends eight million dollars a year on drainage in the rural areas of the city. The new fee will be collected directly from property owners, with the fee being phased in over four years. The BIA hears regularly from its
members regarding drainage including property flooding, poor drainage of water off the roads, site use constraints due to city drainage easements over private property and overgrown ditches which slows drainage. The BIA is beginning an inventory of locations which are not draining properly and where there are condition issues like blocked culverts. This inventory, when compiled, with be provided to the city with a request for action to remedy the problem locations. In association with Ottawa’s “Cleaning up the Capital” campaign, the Carp Corridor BIA is encouraging property and business owners in the Carp Road Corridor to clean up
the frontage of their property if it needs it. The BIA will provide heavy duty garbage bags and a safety vest for such work. The BIA will also arrange for pick up of bags full of debris and litter. Last year 15 area business owners, residents and members of the West Ottawa Community Church on Carp Road spent a Saturday morning in May cleaning up along the Carp Road. Watch for the date of this year’s clean up. The Carp Road Corridor BIA (Business Improvement Area) can be contacted at 613-314-7597 (Roddy Bolivar) or via email at roddy.bolivar@crcbia.

Carp Farmers’ Market opening SPECIAL TO THE REVIEW
The 26th season for the Carp Farmers’ Market at the Carp fairgrounds begins this coming Saturday, May 13. It will be the start of a season that will see the market held on Saturdays from 8 a.m. to 1 p.m. through to October. Last year the Carp Farmers’ Market had a record number of vendors combined with record sales. All products sold at this producer-based country Carp Farmers’ Market must be grown, raised, produced or manufactured by the vendors themselves. Vendor categories at the Carp Farmers’ Market today include baked goods, clothing, sewing and knitting, food concessions, fruits and vegetables, garlic grower, horticulture and gardening, jewelry, meats, poultry and dairy, organic foods, arts and crafts, personal care products, pottery, preserves and condiments, specialty farm products, specialty foods, wine and wood crafts. The Carp Farmers’ Market has been held annually since the first one back in June 1990. A local farmers’ market in Carp was a dream of the late Hildegarde Anderson, a Carp resident, who had memories of the success of farmers’ markets in her native province of Saskatchewan. With determination, she pressed ahead to make her dream a reality. Together with her friend Kathy Fischer, Farmers’ Markets Ontario’s marketing specialist Bob Chorney and
lots of information from the Ontario Ministry of Food and Agriculture, she developed a plan and conducted a series of information meetings. This, combined with a publicity campaign, resulted in the Carp Farmers’ Market, which held its first market day on June 23, 1990 at the Carp fairgrounds with 1,000 customers in attendance. And these crowds grew quickly in the succeeding weeks. A nine-member steering committee was formed. A slogan proposed by Janice Browning, “Fresher By A Country Smile,” was adopted, along with a harvest basket logo designed by Brian Fallack. The Carp Farmers’ Market can be contacted by email at info@carpfarmersmarket.ca or by phone at 613-786-1010.

Master gardener Judith Cox will be the guest speaker at the monthly meeting of the Stittsville Goulbourn Horticultural Society on Tuesday, May 16 in Stittsville.
Making it fun — that’s the gardening philosophy of master gardener Judith Cox, and you’ll get a sampling of it at the May meeting of the Stittsville Goulbourn Horticultural Society. That’s when Judith will be the guest speaker, delivering a presentation called “Gardening with Children: Purple Carrots, Honeybees and Magic.” Just that title of the presentation evokes thoughts of fun. Judith believes that by focusing on fun and function in gardening, everyone can enjoy themselves, no matter their age. “I put a big emphasis on looking at things in a different way, using the materials that you have available,” Judith says. “It’s all a case of hopefully making it fun, interesting, something different,” she says about gardening. “I want people to enjoy themselves.” And she knows of what she speaks, as she combined her love of children, thanks to a background in early childhood education, with a passion for gardening when she was the gardener at Saunders Farm at Munster for 15 years, before deciding at the end of last season that it was time for a change. Judith created and tended to the fairy garden at Saunders Farm for years, recognizing it as a valuable tool in drawing in and capturing the attention of children. “People can’t really walk past something that looks really interesting,” she says. “You’re competing a lot with electronics and all this other stuff so you’ve got to make it in such a way that children are going to be able to relate to what you’re doing. You want to sort of start
out with instant gratification and then move on to the more patient things.” She notes that for children, the wonder of a garden is magical. “You put this seed in the ground and then, whoa, there’s a plant and that’s amazing,” she explains. Gardening, though, may not seem as magical for an adult, as tackling a garden can seem daunting. That’s why Judith has decided to start her own garden consulting business to help homeowners who want to learn more about gardening in their own garden. “I love the idea of going to someone’s garden and giving them the confidence to be able to be their own gardener,” she says. “It’s not as scary as you think sometimes.” Judith Cox will be giving her presentation “Gardening with Children: Purple Carrots, Honeybees and Magic” at the Stittsville Goulbourn Horticultural Society on Tuesday, May 16 at 7:30 p.m. at the Pretty Street Community Centre, at the corner of Pretty Street and Orville Street in Stittsville. Non-members of the Horticultural Society are most welcome to attend as guests are free for this meeting. This is a good opportunjity for West Carleton Garden Club members to hear Judith Cox. She had been scheduled to make a presentation at a meeting of the West Carleton Garden Club earlier this year but the meeting was cancelled due to a snow storm. Memberships in the Horticultural Society are $15 each or $25 for a family. For more information, please email SGHorticultural@gmail. com.
ORNAMENTAL GRASS: Eye-catching and easy to grow Ornamental grass is increasingly popular among homeowners looking to embellish their outdoor space. Graceful and light, these plants — characterized by thin, long foliage — complement every style of landscape. Ornamental grasses traditionally border water gardens and Zen corners; however, more and more gardeners are making the bold move of planting them in the heart of their flowerbeds mixed with various annuals and perennials. Resistant to drought, illness and
destructive insects, ornamental grass is extremely easy to maintain. The majority of varieties only require a 10-centimetre trim every spring, while evergreen varieties like blue oat grass don’t require any trimming at all. Furthermore, ornamental grass grows vigorously in poor (anemic) soil, as long as it’s well drained. Add a bit of fertilizer upon planting and you’re set! Are you afraid that ornamental grass will take over your garden? Visit your local garden centre or
plant nursery to find varieties that remain compact as they grow, such as silver grass (Miscanthus), red grass (Calamagrostis) and greater wood-rush (Luzula sylvatica), the latter of which is perfect for shaded areas. Boasting feathery spikes and green, red, yellow or blue foliage, ornamental grass is sure to embellish your property and attract the eye of passers-by all season long!

Among all of the flooring options available on the market for decks, terraces and patios, treated lumber is undeniably one of the more popular choices, mainly for its reasonable cost and long lifespan. Often made from pine or spruce, these pressure-treated wooden planks are equally suitable for ground-level patios and elevated balconies. Are you looking to complement your yard with a beautiful terrace? Treated wood might be exactly the building material you’re looking for.
Treated lumber is the perfect choice of material for a beautiful and durable deck your family can enjoy for years to come.
Easy to cut, carve and paint, treated lumber is the perfect choice of material for a terrace that is unique in design and resistant to insects and rot. In addition to its superior resistance, it’s also very easy to work with. For example, to preserve the natural beauty of the surface, you can stain or paint the wood in a colour of your choosing. Furthermore, to ensure your deck remains in prime condition for years to come, you can apply a transparent, waterproof sealant available at any hardware store. Contrary to popular belief, wood is actually one of the more eco-friendly options available for deck flooring.

Being a mom is one of best jobs on earth Five last-minute gifts for mom who has everything
B
eing a mom is one of the best jobs on Earth. It’s very rewarding. It’s also completely thankless sometimes, if that makes any sense. Mom doesn’t usually get a thank you when she wakes up in the middle of the night to change diapers and provide food for her new babe. She will likely get more complaints and protests than gratitude when she makes healthy snacks and lunches for her child. And she probably won’t get many thanks when she drags that kid out of bed for school, church or hockey practice early in the morning, even though they know it is for their own good. But she will keep on doing all of those things, because she is a mom. It often isn’t until we are moms ourselves, or we lose our moms, that we realize how much they did for us. Probably the best gift you can give your mom (I’m speaking from my own perspective as the mom of 3, step-mom of 2 and grandma of 1) is your time and attention. She doesn’t need you to buy into the com-
mercialism of the event and spend a lot of money on a gift — but if you want to, that’s perfectly fine. What Mom really wants, I’m guessing, is to hear your voice on the phone, see you on Skype or FaceTime, or spend time with you on Mother’s Day. We don’t all have those perfect movie script mother-child relationships, so if you can’t imagine sitting across from your Mom for an entire lunch date, why don’t you ask what she wants to do. Maybe it’s going to a movie together, and sharing a laugh. Or go through old photo albums together, tidying up her storage room at the same time. Don’t forget the wine. Your Mom might want to go somewhere with you, or she might just want you to tell her all about what you have been up to lately. Detail by detail. You can sacrifice the time. Think of all she has done for you. If you don’t have a mom figure in your life, there might be another woman you can honour on Mother’s Day. Maybe a favourite teacher or coach, who was your confidante during difficult times while you

DIANA FISHER The Accidental Farmwife were growing up. Or maybe there is a mom in your life who is missing her own children and would love to spend some time with you on Mother’s Day. If you’ve lost your Mom, maybe you can honour her memory by pulling her old recipe box out of storage and making some of her favourite dishes. Looking for a last-minute gift idea for the mom who has everything? Here are some of my favourites. 1. Book a photo session together. I did this one year and it was quite an experience. The photo shoot itself was moving, because you don’t usually spend that much time hanging on to this person you call Mom. Spending an hour in each other’s embrace, laughing and goofing off for the camera is a memory you will treasure forever. With the photos to match. 2. Buy tickets for an upcoming concert and plan to go together. Make sure it’s music that Mom likes. If she isn’t into loud noises, consider a play or a comedy show. It will give you another experience to share and look forward to.
3. Plan a day trip together. Go for a drive, do some window shopping and include some destinations from your past, with at least one stop for food. Stir up some memories and take the time to chat about the good old days. 4. Book a spa day together, if you’re into that sort of thing. This can be a mani-pedi and hair experience at a salon, or a massage and soak at the hot springs. The idea is to have some laughs and spend time together with no cellphone distractions. 5. Make a photo book. If you don’t have a lot of time to spend with Mom on Mother’s Day but you want her to know how much you appreciate her, scan or take photos of old photos, and download recent ones onto a USB stick or your phone. Then head to a photo kiosk and print a hardcovered photo book. You can even add text if you want to. It’s a thoughtful gift and doesn’t have to cost much. Happy Mother’s Day. Enjoy every moment.

Some of largest birds residing in North America are here BY MICHAEL RUNTZ
It is a truism that big animals capture our attention while small ones seldom do. Naturally, they are easier to see. On a walk through a forest everyone spots a moose at 25 metres but few if any see the underwing moth clinging to tree bark a metre from the trail. And our species has always been impressed by size. Many hunters seek whitetailed deer with the largest antlers to mount their heads on trophy walls for bragging rights. Fishermen strive to catch giant muskellunge to stuff and place on exhibit. So it should come as no surprise that large birds such as eagles and
storks attract considerably more attention than do warblers and sparrows. Locally are found some of the largest birds residing in North America. In addition to bald eagles whose wingspans reach seven feet, we have sandhill cranes (owning wingspans only six inches shorter) and great blue herons (with, at six feet, only slightly less impressive wingspans). Even though herons and cranes are superficially similar in appearance (both have very long legs, large dagger-like bills, and very long necks), they are not closely related. In fact, herons are more closely related to pelicans while cranes are related to rails. And many visible features also differ between the two.

One is the ability of great blue herons to fold their necks into an S. This configuration is due to special, elongated cervical (neck) vertebrae. Muscles attached to the vertebrae allow the head to shoot down with lightning speed to capture fish and other prey. This feature also allows a heron’s neck to be folded back during flight. Cranes cannot fold their neck into a pretzel and as a result fly with head and neck extended straight out. Herons and cranes also differ behaviourally. Cranes mostly feed on land and are frequently seen walking in fields where they probe the soft soil for invertebrates and pluck corn and other agricultural grains from the ground. While herons occasionally land in fields to forage for voles, they usually stand motionless in water, patiently waiting for fish to swim within striking range. They also differ in how they nest. Herons build big, bulky stick nests high up in trees (especially dead ones) while cranes deposit their eggs in mounds on the ground formed from mud, vegetation, and sometimes sticks. While the courtship rituals of cranes and herons are equally fascinating, they also are very different. Great blue herons perform neck fluffing, neck stretching, crest raising, and bill clapping displays while sandhill cranes are superb dancers whose productions include deep bows and high leaps. Additionally, great blue herons are typically solitary birds that during the breeding season nest socially in “heronries.” Sandhill Cranes never nest socially but during migration and in winter gather in large groups often numbering a
hundred or more. And there is another difference. Apart from a loud, guttural “frawnk” given when startled, great blue herons are generally silent. Sandhill cranes, however, are extremely vocal, uttering unique and unmistakable, loud, rattling calls even during flight. So if you ever hear a deep, resonating, rattling call coming from above, you need not crane your neck to know who its maker is! The Nature email is mruntz@start.ca

Great Blue Herons typically nest in dead trees. Note how this bird’s neck is unfolding from its characteristic S-shape.

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!
ARIES – Mar 21/Apr 20 Aries, finding what you desire when you haven’t made your own mind up aboutwhat you want can be challenging. Some soul-searching can probably come up with something promising.
LEO – Jul 23/Aug 23 Going back to school might be the best path for you at this time, Leo. Although this might stretch your schedule to its limits, you’ll find the time if it’s important to you.
SAGITTARIUS – Nov 23/Dec 21 There are a few friends who have stuck by your side through thick and thin, Sagittarius. When one comes knocking at your door for help, give this person the support he or she needs.
TAURUS – Apr 21/May 21 Nagging doubts about an investment may be trying to tell you something, Taurus. Hold off on any bold moves until you feel more confident with parting ways with cash.
VIRGO – Aug 24/Sept 22 Volunteering can bring more meaning to your life, Virgo, especially if you feel yourself struggling right now. Giving back can sometimes make your problems seem small.
CAPRICORN – Dec 22/Jan 20 Capricorn, you can find a solution to a problem even if the answer eludes you for the time being. Don’t overthink what has to be done. This is a time to act.
GEMINI – May 22/Jun 21 Gemini, if you have already committed to something, see it through. The end result may be something unexpected. Others are anxious to see what you can accomplish.
LIBRA – Sept 23/Oct 23 Libra, trips may seem like they have to be large undertakings, but that’s not always the case. Try for a short jaunt somewhere and enjoy the scenery.
CANCER – Jun 22/Jul 22 Take the emotional plunge, Cancer. Someone special needs to hear about it pronto. This is not a week to clam up, but rather one to share your feelings and let others in.
SCORPIO – Oct 24/Nov 22 The time has come to spend less time thinking and more time doing, Scorpio. Turn a page in your life and you’ll likely be satisfied with the results.
AQUARIUS – Jan 21/Feb 18 Aquarius, you always have time to do something for yourself, but you might need to put that on hold right now and focus on others. Forge ahead even if you are met with resistance.
