Diefenbunker eyes contest as means to fix aged bathrooms BY JAKE DAVIES

jake.davies@metroland.com

It’s not the fault of the Soviet bloc, but the Diefenbunker needs new bathrooms, ASAP. In the spirit of Glasnost, Diefenbunker Museum facility manager Lizz Thrasher and marketing and business development manager Kelly Eyamie took the West Carleton Review on a tour of the museum’s ailing washroom facilities. “Did you ever think you

would be writing a story on toilets,” Eyamie asks. The not-for-profit museum receives no funding but is in desperate need of new facilities. “This bunker was built between 1959 and 1961, and was intended to house 535 Canadian government officials and military officers for 30 days in the event of a nuclear war,” Thrasher said. “Operationally, this was a barracks. It wasn’t built to be a museum. Things have been repurposed.”

Now, the museum averages 75,000 visitors a year, and the museum’s 57-year-old bathrooms are not suitable. “Right now we have a lot of school trips,” Eyamie said. “Every single trip, we have students who have been on a bus for an hour or so. We have to coordinate bathroom visits.” Museum staff think they need about $80,000 to build new, accessible, modern facilities on site. The museum has been fun-

draising for some time, but has recently entered and been named finalists in the This Place Matters crowdfunding competition which will ‘bring communities, partners and young people together to renew and improve the vitality of their historic places’ with $220,000 in prizes to be won. The Diefenbunker is competing against 25 other projects to win prizes from $10,000 up to $60,000. The Difeinbunker is in the 2017 Big Projects competition with an opportunity to win up to $90,000. It is also eligible for the Community Builder prize of $10,000. The public can help by voting for and/or donating to the Flushed With Success – The Diefenbunker Washroom project. If the washroom project is

successful and is able to fund new facilities, the old washrooms could return to what they should be – part of the exhibit. “These washrooms were specifically designed to be shock proof,” Thrasher said. “If there was a bombing above us, they toilets would stay stationary and more importantly, would not break off from the septic system. If we were to renovate these washrooms it would take away from the whole character of the facility. These washrooms are defined as historical artefacts. We want to put in modern facilities and decommission the older plumbing and turn these washrooms in to a true exhibit.” Three years ago the museum received a grant to make one of its washrooms accessible, but in reality the largest bathroom at

the museum is not accessible, many others have more services out-of-order than in working order. It’s long past time the museum have proper, modern facilities, and let the original toilets do their intended jobs – tell fascinating stories to museum visitors. “Our toilets are the reason the Diefenbunker was discovered,” Thrasher said. “When the bunker was being built, a reporter from the Telegram was camped outside. He was watching them unpack and saw there were far too many toilets for it to be a communications outpost. He did some digging and found out the true nature of the facility.” To either donate and/or vote (which can be done every 24 hours) for the Diefenbunker project, visit thisplacematters. ca.

Aga Khan Foundation Canada’s exhibition coming to Carp SPECIAL TO THE REVIEW

A travelling exhibition featuring Canada’s contributions to positive change around the world is coming to Carp. A custom-built truck with 1,000 square feet of exhibition space featuring “Together: An exhibition on global development” will be parked at the Carp Farmers' Market at the Carp fairgrounds this Saturday, June 24 from 8 a.m. to 3 p.m. Admission to this interactive bilingual experience, geared to those of all ages, is free. This truck’s “Together” exhibition highlights Canadian contributions to positive change around the world. Visitors will be able to climb aboard the truck and enjoy the exhibition. The exhibition is meant to inspire visitors to explore lasting solutions to global development challenges through photography, objects, film, and audio that will transport visitors around the world. There will be a quiz that will enable visitors to discover what kind of global citizens they are and how to get involved. There will also be an interactive world map that will show diverse Canadian contributions to global development. In addition, visitors will have the opportunity to share their ideas and experiences with one another. Visitors leave the exhibition knowing that they can be positive agents of change in the world and that they can be global citizens, taking their gifts, skills, abilities, and talents and using them to benefit the world. The truck and its exhibition have been touring the country to showcase Canada’s leadership in promoting a more peaceful, prosperous, equal, and pluralist world for everyone. It is part of Canada’s 150th celebrations this year. This “Together: An exhibition on global development” project was developed by the Aga Khan Foundation Canada with the financial support of Global Affairs Canada. The exhibition features the work of 21 Canadian organizations which are working to reduce poverty around the world, including the Canadian Red Cross, Save the Children, and UNICEF. The Aga Khan Foundation Canada (AKFC) is an international development organization and registered charity. Since 1980, the AKFC has helped millions of people in Africa and Asia discover their potential to build a better life. In Canada, the AKFC raises funds, builds partnerships with Canadian institutions, and promotes discussion and learning on international development issues. This “Together” exhibition is part of the AKFC’s initiative to spark conversation in Canada about global issues that affect everyone. It is meant to demonstrate ways that Canadians can play a role in reducing global poverty. This exhibition is one of the ways that the AKFC is working with Canadians to make a difference. Since April 2015, this exhibition has been seen by 40,000 Canadians across the country. This is the third summer that the “Together” exhibition truck has toured the country. Global development means ensuring parents have enough nutritious food to feed their children every day. It means that children worldwide will complete school with the skills to build a better future. Global development also means that communities across the world will be able to deal with issues such as clean water, steady employment, and quality health care.

More than 300 athletes, teacher-coaches and proud parents and family attended the gala event. Following a reception, Lonestar catered dinner and door prizes, West Carleton Secondary School coaches handed out the hardware. Each team chose a Most Valuable Player and the school handed out Athletic Letters, Athlete of the Year and the True Sport award to deserving student-athletes. “We look for multi-sport athletes, leaders on their teams and team award recipients,” said track and field coach and physical and health education teacher Kelly Goto who also sits on the award selection committee. “Athletes who are excelling

OPINION

Just say no to all-night noise

ight rail is a positive for most people in the city. Fewer cars, faster commutes. Who could grumble? Yet there will be a few negatives. Some people will have to deal with noise from the occasional trains. The good news is the trains won’t run past anyone’s home all night. It’s a different story when it comes to maintenance yards. Those facilities will be active when the trains aren’t running – the middle of the night is perfect for cleaning and upkeep. Because of the potential for all-night racket, the city must do all it can to keep the noise down. And instead of building a yard and then trying to mitigate the noise coming from within, the city should ensure future yards are as far from residents’ homes as possible. That brings us to Moodie Drive in Nepean. The city’s preferred location for a future rail maintenance yard is east of Moodie, 232 metres from the nearest home in Crystal Beach. Yet there are two other sites – not “preferred” in part due to cost – west of Moodie, about five times as far from the nearest bedroom.

The extra $15-million cost of the more distant sites is due to the need for an overpass or underpass to get trains over or under Moodie Drive. That may seem a steep price to pay, but that overpass or underpass is going to be built when the next stage of light rail is extended to Kanata. That work could begin very soon after the first train rumbles to Moodie Drive. The $15 million will not be wasted, it just needs to be spent a little sooner so the maintenance yard is built where it makes sense. The additional bonus is that the sites distant from Crystal Beach will be side-by-side with the future rail line to Kanata. Trains will have an easy in-and-out, instead of in the city’s preferred option – a dead end yard further from the main line. Yes, we should be thankful that light rail will reach Moodie Drive by 2023. We should be thankful that the provincial and federal governments have pitched in funding to get it done. But we shouldn’t delay further funding if it means an all-night rail yard bangs and clangs next to a community because we built it in the wrong place.

When neighbourhoods become trendy, taxes go up

hat is happening to the Granite Curling Club of West Ottawa is part of a distressingly similar pattern in growing cities. The Westboro club’s property tax bill has tripled, posing an unexpected financial challenge to the club and its members. This isn’t the first time this has happened in Ottawa and it won’t be the last, unless some creative thought can be brought to bear on the issue. Imagine it. You’re minding our own business, operating in a neighbourhood where you’ve been for more than 50 years and all of a sudden the neighbourhood becomes hot. People have decided it’s the place to be. Businesses have decided they want to move there. (And, in the case of Westboro, the city has decided it wants to locate light rail stations there.) Then what happens? New houses are built. Old houses are torn down to

CHARLES GORDON Funny Town make room for bigger ones. Property values increase. Rents go up. Taxes go up, including yours. And what did you do to deserve this? Nothing. You just stayed where you were. For that, you and other oldtimers in the area are paying a higher price. Some of the old-time businesses will close, replaced by others whose owners have deeper pockets. Many of those will be chains, diminishing the local qualities of the neighbourhood. This has been happening in Westboro for some time. It is happening now in Hintonburg and will start happening somewhere else in the city any Vice President & Regional Publisher Peter Bishop pbishop@metroland.com 613-283-3182

minute now. Recognizing that it needs to be stopped is easier than figuring out ways to stop it. Taxes need to be fair. Fairness dictates that affluent areas have higher assessments than less prosperous ones. For example, it’s fair to tax those who profit by selling their properties in hot neighbourhoods. It is not unfair that those who fuel the fire by paying inflated prices for properties wind up paying higher property taxes. And it is probably not unfair to increase the assessment on those who put on massive additions and expand the city’s roster of hot tubs. But those who just stayed put and watched the neighbourhood boom around them? What did they do to deserve a tax hit? Still, it is difficult to conceive of a solution that favours long-timers over newcomers. You can’t have next-door

neighbours with radically different assessments, assuming that one isn’t radically overbuilt compared with the other. Maybe the only solution is a longterm one, an attack on the factors that make property values increase so dramatically (and which, incidentally, make affordable housing increasingly scarce). Some of those factors are built in to our economic system, the product of supply and demand. Not much we can do about them. But we can attack a large cause of the rise in property values — namely, speculation. In the more fevered centres of rising prices, attention is being paid to this. Ontario and British Columbia are taxing property purchases by non-residents. More could be done. News reports in recent months highlight instances of houses that are purchased and sold again, sometimes several times, with-

out anyone living in them. It shouldn’t be beyond the capabilities of our lawmakers to put a stop to that. Anything that helps make city life affordable again can only help our neighbourhoods.

Second annual Carp Herb Festival is here! well! Special events coming up in July include a bread demo and compound butter on Saturday, July 15 from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m. There will be delicious breads to try, along with a variety of hand made compound butters. On Saturday, July 22 from 10 a.m. to noon, it will be bee day at the Carp Farmers Market, with bees and honey front and centre. Saturday, July 29 is hemp day, as well as kids’ club bead day, from 10 a.m. to noon.

SPECIAL TO THE REVIEW

This Saturday, June 24, the second annual Carp Herb Festival will be held at the Carp Farmers’ Market at the Carp fairgrounds. It will run from 8 a.m. to 3 p.m. and have lots of fresh herbs, cooking demonstrations, tea tasting and more. Then, on Saturday, July 1, there will be the celebration of two birthdays held. Canada is celebrating its 150th birthday, while the Carp Farmers Market is making its 27th birthday. There will be lots of cake available for the celebration as

August at the Carp Farmers’ Market will start off with a kombucha and fermentation demo on Saturday, Aug. 5 from 10 a.m. to noon. There will be a fermentation workshop with Agape Gardens in the demo tent. Saturday, Aug. 12 is a big day at the Carp Farmers’ Market at the Carp fairgrounds, because it is day one of the 18th annual Garlic Festival, running from 8 a.m. to 3 p.m. You will never find more garlic in one place than you will at this festival.

Letter: Response to MPP’s daughters The following letter was sent to the West Carleton Review as a response to a letter submitted by the daughters of Carleton-Mississippi Mills MPP in the June 15, 2017 issue of the paper: To the daughters of Jack MacLaren: When your father was ejected from the PC caucus, nobody expected him to go quietly. Despite reframing his dismissal as a wilful departure, he has not successfully erased his misogynistic comments about Karen McCrimmon from the public’s mind. I’m happy you are proud of his accomplishments, but ignoring the mistakes that led to his dismissal and brushing off lewd comments made in a very public sphere with the intent to

demean an arguably more successful and extremely intelligent woman is embarrassing, and more importantly, communicates to us and our daughters that we deserve that type of treatment. It tells men that no consequences will be met. It perpetuates the sexism in our political institutions and personal lives, and keeps people in positions of power that they shouldn’t have had in the first place. Farmer or not, maintaining a sexist attitude and labelling it an “antipolitically correct attitude” will not fare him well. We’ll see you at the polls. Holly Veale Carp/West Carleton

This 18th annual Garlic Festival promises to be the biggest yet, with over 120 booths showcasing 35 dedicated garlic vendors selling fresh garlic, garlic spreads, garlic dips, garlic dressings, garlic pestos, braids and baskets. These garlic vendors will be joining the 86 regular Carp Farmers’ Market vendors at this event. Day two happens on Sunday, Aug. 13, running from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. Again, lots of garlic available, along with the usual market products. There will be garlic tasting, workshops and cooking demonstrations. Saturday, Aug. 19 from 8 a.m. to 1 p.m. will be sampling day for corn.

Madawaska Golf unveils new, community-built logo BY JAKE DAVIES

jake.davies@metroland.com

Following the celebration of 40 years of history, the Madawaska Golf Club is unveiling a new look in year number 41. The club unveiled a new logo to members during a brief ceremony following the Kickers Scramble tournament held mid-May.

It features two feathers in the club’s traditional red and white colours in front of two blue, bending stripes. “We’d been talking about it for a few years,” club manager Victoria Munro said. “As we transition in to a new generation, we wanted to update our look. “But we wanted to pay tribute to our traditions, so we kept

the feathers and the blue stripes represents the two rivers that intersect in our greater community.” Munro said her dad and course owner Rick Munro came up with the concept and Men’s Club captain Dan McCaskill, with the help of his team at Expgraphiq, a custom fabrication and design company, created the final logo.

Celebrate Life

Canada Day is always a special time at the Madawaska Golf Course. Members and regulars are known for putting on the red, breaking out the maple leaves and heading to the course for a round with friends. With this year being Canada 150, Munro says it will be a week-long celebration at the Madawaska this year. From June 27 to July 1 the course will have a different special each day. “We want to celebrate all week long,” Munro said. “It’s Canada 150. Debbie and the girls will be decorating and dressing up for the week. In previous years our community dresses up pretty good for Canada so we have a lot of fun with it.” With sunny, windy weather the course had finally dried up from the record-breaking wet spring. “The course is looking great,” Munro said. “It’s nice and dry and in good condition.”

Students learn about Inuit culture at Carp library SPECIAL TO THE REVIEW

Students from St. Michael Catholic School in Fitzroy Harbour did not have to travel to Nunavut to learn about Inuit culture. All the Grade 2 and 3 students had to do was travel to the Carp branch of the Ottawa Public Library on Tuesday, June 6 where they learned about

Inuit culture from children’s author Deborah Kigjugalik Webster. She presented readings and also demonstrated an Inuit toy made from caribou bone and leather strong that she played with as a child growing up in Baker Lake in Nunavut. Her visit to the Carp library branch was made possible thanks to funding

from the annual Diefenbooker Classic. Deborah wrote Akilak’s Adventure, published in 2016 — a children’s book telling the story of a young girl’s journey to gather food. On this trek the girl draws on her imagination as well as her grandmother’s spirit to turn the trip into an adventure rather

than an ordeal. The author, a researcher and anthropologist wrote this children’s book due to the scarcity of books for Inuit children about life in Nunavut. Inuit beliefs are woven into the book’s narrative. The book is illustrated by Charlene Chua of Toronto and is available

through Inhabit Media and Indigo Books. Deborah is also the author of Harvatuurmiut Heritage: The Heritage of the Inuit of the Lower Kazan River which was published in 1998. Deborah is currently working on her third book about Inuit RCMP special constables from Nunavut.

Lowry Cemetery memorial service SPECIAL TO THE REVIEW

The annual Lowry Cemetery memorial service is coming up this Sunday, June 25 at 2 p.m. At one time, this cemetery was adjacent to the Lowry Presbyterian Church, which was on the FitzroyHuntley township line (now Thomas A. Dolan Parkway). The Lowry Presbyterian Church closed following church union in 1925, with the building dismantled in 1935 and the ma-

terials used to build a private home near Carp. The cemetery was then extended across the area where the church and its sheds had stood. Those planning to attend the annual Lowry Cemetery memorial service on Sunday, June 25 are urged to take along a lawn chair. Refreshments will be provided. The service will be held at St. Andrew’s Presbyterian Church in Kinburn if there is inclement weather.

St. Thomas Church goes back to 1865 SPECIAL TO THE REVIEW

The history of St. Thomas Anglican Church at Woodlawn goes back to 1865. A frame church building was being used by 1874. The church was consecrated by Bishop J. Travers Lewis in Sept. 1882. Then, in 1915, the present stone St. Thomas Anglican Church building was constructed to replace the former frame structure which was moved to the rear of the property, remaining in use until the new church was completed. The cornerstone of the new church was laid by Bishop John Charles Roper on July 1, 1915. He consecrated the building in December of that same year, 1915. Land was donated in 1925 by James Brown for a cemetery which was consecrated by Bishop E.S. Reed in September, 1955. The annual memorial service for St. Thomas Anglican Cemetery will be held on Sunday, July 2 at 2 p.m. at the church. On Nov. 3, 1965, the centennial of St. Thomas Church was celebrated, along with the 50th anniversary of the church building that was built in 1915. John Curry/Metroland Since 1985, St. Thomas Anglican Church at Woodlawn St. Thomas Anglican Church at Woodlawn has a and St. George’s Fitzroy Harbour have been part of the history that goes back to 1865.

At West Carleton’s Awesome Arts Festival BY JOHN CURRY john.curry@metroland.com

Jack MacLaren Member of Provincial Parliament Carleton-Mississippi Mills

Magna Carta Day Magna Carta day was June 15. I was pleased to celebrate it with friends, family, and supporters. Magna Carta is the main exposition of the ancient liberties of the English-speaking peoples. Magna Carta was sealed in 1215, but since that time, those rights have always needed protection and affirmation. Ever-expanding governments have eaten away at our liberties. They have created a nanny state and a Byzantine system of regulation. Modern governments systematically undermine the ancient protections of property, parliamentary independence and free speech in the name of social justice and other misguided causes. Magna Carta was the first statute to forbid arbitrary seizure and to guarantee due process of law. But we need to remember that Magna Carta was neither revolutionary nor innovative. We should think of Magna Carta as a living document. It affirmed and restated rights that were already ancient. At the centre of these rights is the primacy of the individual person over the state and the collective. Our strength as a country comes from the common adherence to our parliamentary monarchy. It comes from trust in a legal system based on common sense and the sanctity of contracts. It comes from our inherited British tradition of ordered liberty under the rule of law. Magna Carta is at the foundation of all those things, and so I’d like to wish everyone a happy Magna Carta day!

Métis jigging, slam poetry, animation, songwriting and even cinepoetry all combined to make sure that the Awesome Arts Festival in West Carleton on June 15 lived up to its name — Awesome. And the ‘awesome’ tag on this showcase of talent was further enhanced by festival-ending performances by a number of professional artists including singer Mia Kelly, hip hop singer Cody Coyote, the Long Sault Trio, beat boxer Julia Dales and the Work N Play dancers. All of this was orchestrated by the energetic Jamaal Rogers who not only served as MC but also recited one of his poems, Dedication, showing why he is now Ottawa’s new English poet laureate. The showcase, held at Stonecrest Elementary School, got off to a rousing start with a performance of Métis jigging, with the age nine to 11 year old dancers wearing the traditional Métis sash as they performed on stage. The dancers had learned this Métis dancing in one of the workshops which led up to this Awesome Arts Festival. Those involved with this Métis jigging program included Han Ni Turan Au, Michael Barnes, Samantha Clarke, Sydney Fulcher, Kailey Higham, Jordan Juratovac, Kaylynn Koktan, Paige LeBlue, Jordanna MacEwen, Ashlee Partridge, Fajr Rogers, Sophie Saumure, Petra Vargatoth, Austin White and Ava Wilson. But this was just the start of the showcase. It was followed by slam poetry, animation storytelling, stop motion animation and songwriting. Slam poetry, MC Rogers explained,

is a way of expressing feelings and thoughts, often resulting in the expression of an opinion. Those presenting slam poetry with diversity and acceptance as the theme included See FESTIVAL, page 17 Lucca Dyke, Alex Eldershaw, Morgan Fulcher, Shayla Keefe, Jibreel Rogers, Sam Tucker, Nick Vargatoth, Ema Winters and Emma Wood. One of the programs offered was a weeks-long animation workshop led by Tina LeMoine, with the resulting videos shown at this showcase. The Choke Cable Incident was one of the animation videos shown as was a video narrated by Wilfred Gilchrist which told the story of Bert, a bootlegger. Those involved with animation included Wilfred Gilchrist, Amanada Walker, Fran Dawson and Jennifer Butterworth. There was also an animation video Magic Trickle Trunk. A slow motion animation video which was shown involved Wilfred Gilchrist, Amanda Walker, Sheelagh Lam, Laura Jane Kelland-May and George Kozlovski. There was also a cinepoem Be Yourself presented, a combination of slam poetry with video. Another highlight of the showcase was the presentation of an original song Communities by nine youth who compiled their thoughts about inclusion and diversity and transformed them into musical art. The original lyrics dealt with diversity and inclusion to which a melody and beat were then added. The youth called themselves the West Side People. Songwriters for this Awesome Arts Festival included: Mallory ArmJohn Curry/Metroland strong, Madyson Bone, Jesse Corkum, Piper Lytle, Amber Oliver, Aslan Theland Kicknosway, a First Nations Cree, performs Purvis-Lauzon, Thomas Smith and with a lighted hula hoop at the Awesome Arts Emma-Lee Sucee.

Festival also featured professional performers Those at the Awesome Arts Festival also saw a brief teaser of an animation video about the Diefenbunker which is being made by the Diefenbunker’s artist-in-residence Pixie Cram and which will be shown at the Diefenbunker on July 20. Hip hop experimental artist Cody Coyote was joined by fellow First Nations performer Theland Kicknosway, a Grade 8 student at Sir Winston Churchill Public School in Ottawa who electrified the audience with his dance performance which involved using five lighted hula hoops. Theland recently was the recipient of the Take A Stand Award at the 2017 Spirit of the Capital Youth Awards. Other professional performers in Awesome Arts Festival include the Long Sault Trio, Julia Dales and the Work N Play dancers. One impromptu performance that grabbed attention was a brief onstage dance by Ben Jammin who looked

after the sound system for the event. During his onstage dance, he even ended up spinning around on his head. This Awesome Arts Festival is the culmination of a community workshop series that has allowed participants of all ages to explore issues through the arts. This program is a partnership of MASC with Stonecrest Elementary School and the Carp Branch of the Ottawa Public Library. In the program, more than 40 West Carleton residents participated in over 30 long term, intensive artistic workshops delivered by professional artists in various art forms such as slam poetry, animation, music, dance and video. This was the first time that this MASC Awesome Arts program has been offered in a rural community even though the program has been operating since 2012. Offering the program in West Carleton was supported by the City of Ottawa’s Ru-

ral Initiative Fund, the Arts Ottawa East’s Neighbourhood Arts 150 initiative and an anonymous donor. City of Ottawa West Carleton/ March Ward Coun. Eli El-Chantiry was in attendance at this Awesome Arts Festival on June 15. See AWESOME ARTS, page 18

Two cycling routes Bicycle club offers group touring Free concerts SPECIALTO THE REVIEW

Two of the city’s newly created rural cycling routes are found in West Carleton. The city has developed these nine new rural cycling routes to open up the nature and culture of the rural areas of the city to cyclists. The routes all provide a quiet alternative to the busier major roads that connect rural Ottawa to the city’s downtown area. There are also three rural cycling routes that use major pathways in the rural areas such as the Trans Canada Trail. These two new cycling routes in West Carleton are named “Carp and Country Debunker” and “Park to Park.” The Carp and Country Debunker cycling route is a 45.9 kilometer route that is geared to cyclists with experience that could be termed moderate and above. The route includes stops at the Herb Garden on Old Almonte Road with its collection of heritage log barns and the Diefenbunker, Canada’s Cold War Museum in Carp. This is a looped ride from the village of Carp into the surrounding countryside. The Carp fairgrounds in Carp is the site of the weekly Carp Farmers’ Market every Saturday. The Park to Park cycling route covers a total distance of 45 kilometers. It is geared for cyclists with a moderate level of experience. On this cycling route, cyclists will be able to explore the Morris Island Conservation Area including the Ottawa River’s natural beauty. Cyclists will also be able to hop on a ferry and cross the river the Quyon, QC. An additional option on this Park to Park cycling route is to camp overnight at the Fitzroy Provincial Park. Other cycling routes which have been developed by the city for the rural areas include routes in Kanata, Munster, Manotick, Osgoode and Cumberland. All of the routes are self-guided with tour maps available.

SPECIAL TO THE REVIEW

If you are interested in cycling, you might consider joining the Kanata-Nepean Bicycle Club (KNBC). This is a volunteer-based group that focuses on social, recreational bicycle touring. The KNBC welcomes men and women of all ages and abilities. Cycling is a great aerobic workout that engages the legs, increases cardiovascular fitness and is easy on the joints. The KNBC utilizes a variety of speed levels geared to a cyclist’s comfort level and ability. Each ride has a tour leader who reviews the route and safety practices and assigns a “sweep” who rides behind the group to ensure that no cyclist gets left behind. Safety is one of the top reasons to join a

club such as the KNBC as cyclists are more visible when riding in a group. The club provides an orientation for new members on cycling safely on the road. It also offers more formal courses on cycling safety through Cycling Canada’s Can-Bike program. If a problem occurs such as a flat tire, there is usually someone in the group who can fix it. Riding with a group also allows the new cyclist the freedom to ride new routes without worrying about navigation. The KNBC rides on Saturdays, Sundays and Wednesdays as well as on Wednesday and Thursday evenings. The Club has a guest rider policy that allows prospective members to experience what it’s like to be on a group ride. For more information about the KNBC, please email info@knbc.ca.

Surviving electric storms in Renfrew despite Mother’s many fears

could sense Mother’s fear. She moved from the stove where she was working to take a quick glance out the window to the West Hill. I sat on the creton couch holding one of my favourite dolls, which helped the nervousness I felt because of Mother’s growing concern over what she saw beyond the river to the back reaches of the farm. Black clouds were coming closer, and thunder could be heard in the distance, like a heavy barrel being rolled across the kitchen floor. Even though it was the middle of the day, Mother lit two coal oil lamps and set them in the middle of the table. For some reason, she felt safer if the kitchen wasn’t so dark. There wasn’t much Mother feared. She could work among the livestock as well as someone born and raised on the farm, and often at night, when it was blistering hot, she would take a kitchen chair and sit outside on the back stoop, alone in the darkness. But an electric storm had her blood run cold. And one was coming, there was no doubt about it. She was sure it was just a matter of time until our old log house was struck by lightning and everything we owned would be burned to the ground, and unless we took extreme precautions, so would we. Fire and an electric storm, I knew, were the

MARY COOK

Memories only real fears Mother had. And that day, the storm sweeping toward us had turned the sky black as pitch, and by the time it hit the barnyard, the rain was pelting down and you could scarcely see beyond the pump. Father, of course, was in the barns, and there he would stay. Not to escape the lightning, but the rain. Father had no fear of a storm, even though we once lost 11 cows when the big maple tree on the West Hill was struck by lightning. But that day was never far from Mother’s mind whenever a storm hit. Those of us in the house had to sit on chairs in the middle of the floor. No being near an outside wall or a window! It wasn’t unusual, if the storm seemed to be a real dilly, for Mother to hang a blanket in each of the two kitchen windows to shut out the storm, and she fully believed that by doing so, she could actually keep out the lightning. She also thought if we had something made of rubber in our hands, that too was a safeguard, and so there sat my sister Audrey, who thought it sheer nonsense, sitting inside the house with our feet stuck into two pairs of rubber boots! If we could get our hands on a rubber ball, so much the better. And if the phone rang off the wall, we were forbidden to go anywhere near it! And that day, our

number rang two or three times, and we just sat there and looked at it. Now, the storm was raging. Mother counted the seconds between the lightning flash and the clap of thunder, which she said was a sure way of telling how close it was. At that young age, I caught the fear of an electric storm from Mother. Hiding under the covers in my bed was no solution, because it was vital that I be downstairs in case we got hit. Of course, if a storm came in the middle of the night, we were all ordered out of our beds, and made to sit in the middle of the kitchen until it blew over. Father, of course, never moved a muscle, and slept through the most raging storms as if they were happening in some other country. But he would hear again from Mother how electric storms were much worse in Renfrew County than they were in New York City. Living beside the high buildings, she said, shielded her from the fierceness, but out in the country there was nothing to stop the roar of the thunder or the cracking of lightning. The storm was over almost as soon as it came, and all I could hear was the distant rumbling of the thunder, as it headed away from Northcote. The lamps were blown out, the windows opened to daylight, and Mother’s Rosary put back in her bedroom. We survived yet another raging electric storm in Northcote.

Karen McCrimmon Serving Constituents of Kanata-Carleton

Member of Parliament Kanata-Carleton LRT Funding I had the pleasure of joining the Right Honourable Prime Minister Justin Trudeau, Members of Parliament of the National Capital Region, Mayor Jim Watson and other municipal politicians at the Ottawa Trainyards, to announce the federal government’s financial funding commitment of over $1 billion for Phase 2 of Ottawa’s LRT. This funding announcement is a step in the right direction as we continue to support the city’s goal of getting LRT Phase 3 to Kanata. Girls in Leadership Pippa McDougall recently organized an empowering event for young women in Ottawa, at which I had the honour of speaking. Her experience as an ambassador for the Students 4 Special Olympics and delegate to G(irls) 20 Summit 2016 played a large role in making the event a great success. I was happy to engage in important discussions and to support the participants. I sincerely hope that they left feeling confident in their abilities to thrive as young professional women. Ottawa Fire Station 63 Constance Bay BBQ/Open House A wonderful time was had by many in Constance Bay as Ottawa Fire Station 63 opened their doors to the public for their annual BBQ and Open House. The firefighters gave tours of the Fire trucks, equipment and the hall. There were a number of activities on-site for those of all ages and plenty of food to go around, which all contributed to a great day of supporting our local station. The Weekend in the Community It was great to see so many smiling faces around the community at Safety Day in Walter Baker Park, the Carp Colossal Garage Sale, and the Kanata-Hazeldean Lion’s Club “Celebrate Canada” Family Festival. It was a beautiful day to spend in the park with Ottawa Police, paramedics, firefighters, Safer Roads Ottawa, and more. The sun stayed around while I collected donations with the West Carleton Food Access Centre in Carp and while I greeted the parade participants and spectators at the “Celebrate Canada” Festival. As the summer rolls around, I look forward to spending even more time supporting and attending community initiatives. Harmony Iftar I had a wonderful time at the Hamony Iftar, where I got to spend time with a number of my friends from the Kanata area. Iftar, an integral part of Ramadan celebrations, can bring together family, friends and acquaintances, both old and new. This event served as a great example of how we can all celebrate Canada’s diverse communities and pastimes in an inclusive and welcoming atmosphere. Ramadan Mubarak! 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.

Rural OC Transpo bus driver Ken McLeod retires BY ERIN MCCRACKEN erin.mccracken@metroland.com

Ken McLeod’s replacement has big shoes to fill. The veteran OC Transpo operator parked his bus for the last time on June 16 after more than 42 years behind the wheel, most recently as the driver on five rural shopper routes that have served as a lifeline for many passengers who have relied on the free service since 2012. McLeod, 67, became the driver three months after the service was established for rural residents living as far west as Dunrobin, east to Cumberland and Sarsfield, and as far south as Kars. Not long after his first day on the job on Dec. 31, 1974, McLeod attended a retirement event and was asked to try on the retiring employee’s tunic. It fit, but he was advised to remove the maple leaf crests that represent seniority. “I did the math and said, ‘40 years? Holy jumpin’. Who could ever work 40 years?’” he recalled. “And here I am 42-and-a-half years later and I’m about to retire. It’s flown by.” McLeod could have turned over his keys and retired with a full pension in 2007. “Why stay on past that date? It’s because I was busy working all the hock-

ey games,” said McLeod, who has driven during Ottawa Senators home games at the Canadian Tire Centre. When he took on the rural shopper routes five years ago, it allowed him to return to driving on hockey nights. “So that’s why I’ve worked over 600 games in my career,” said McLeod, who fell in love with hockey as a kid playing in goal, something that continued when he was a referee for the Ottawa 67’s and when it was announced Ottawa was getting its own hockey franchise. Given his passion for the sport and driving fans on game night, he chose to delay his retirement until June 16 just in case the Sens made it to the Stanley Cup finals. “I had it all planned out. The only thing that happened was Pittsburgh scored that goal in double overtime and shattered my dream,” he chuckled, but added that it turned out OK because he worked the final home game in which the Sens beat Pittsburgh 2-1. His rural shopper route passengers were glad for the extension. Carp resident Jasna Jaik made sure to catch the 303 bus on June 7, the last time McLeod would be driving the Wednesday route, which makes stops in Carp, Stittsville, Kanata, Bayshore and Lincoln Fields before reaching the Carlingwood Shopping Centre.

She gifted him with a card and a bottle of Australian wine, and McLeod surprised her with a card. Jaik began catching weekly rides three years ago. A Dunrobin rider introduced McLeod to the other riders, including Jaik, but she couldn’t remember McLeod’s name for the first couple of weeks. “I felt so bad because he always said, ‘Good morning, Jasna.’ And I didn’t remember his name. It was awful for me,” she said with a chuckle. The regular rider said McLeod has always gone the extra mile for her, and actually served as a lifeline. “I don’t drive and I live in Carp and I have appointments downtown with the doctors,” she said. “So I always try to make appointments for Wednesday. “He’s wonderful because he picks me up at my driveway, not at the bus stop,” Jaik said, which saves her from walking half a kilometre to the official stop, for which she is grateful, particularly in the winter months. “Always, if he has a replacement, he tells them, ‘Be sure to stop there.’” It’s a bittersweet goodbye for Jaik because although she will miss McLeod, she knows he’s ready to embrace retirement after more than four decades behind the wheel. “He’s a lovely guy,” she said. “He’s happy to retire. He’s never bored.” Margaret Dunn has been taking

the 303 a couple of times a month since 2013 after she moved to Carp from Old Ottawa East to be closer to her mother in Almonte. Like Jaik, Dunn said McLeod has made all the difference for the customers who have come to rely on the free service. “I think he’s a wonderful person,” she said. “He’s always very attentive. He never pulls away from a stop until he knows the passenger is seated. It’s a safety consideration, regardless of your age.” He also asks his passengers whether they plan to catch a return trip home in the afternoon. “It was always important for him to check how many passengers came in and how many were going home,” she said. With his attentiveness and longtime driving experience, McLeod has helped many seniors maintain their independence. “You’re putting your trust in someone who is obviously very capable and has an excellent driving record,” Dunn said. The connection he has with his rural riders, whom he shuttles to the St. Laurent, Carlingwood and Billings Bridge shopping centres, has been a big ingredient of McLeod’s job satisfaction. “I’ve been told many times I am

their lifeline,” McLeod said, adding it feels “pretty good knowing I’m doing something for them that without me — not to say they couldn’t survive — but it would be more difficult for them.” He said he will miss his rural routes and the passengers, many of whom he knows by name. “I’ve really grown to love this work, but everything has to come to an end.”

Air Cadets, darts, events at West Carleton Legion SPECIAL TO THE REVIEW

The West Carleton Branch 616 of the Royal Canadian Legion held its annual general meeting and elections on June 1. They had originally been scheduled for May 18 but were postponed because of the branch’s involvement with the flood crisis. George Dolan is the branch’s new president. Zone commander Bob Atkinson and deputy zone commander Rob Madore officiated at the elections. The Ladies' Auxiliary also held its elections, with Sheila Masson continuing as president. George Dolan and Bogdan Procyk officiated at the elections. FLOODING The West Carleton Legion Branch 616 was involved for virtually the whole month of May in providing flood relief and help. For the first ten days of the flooding, Branch 616 was the Red Cross and Ottawa Health Unit Emergency Centre, setting up cots for sleepovers and providing water test kits. The branch was open 24 hours a day until the emergency centre moved to the Constance and Buckham’s Bay Community Centre. The legion provided three hot meals a day for every day from May 4 to May 26. Water was available every day and donations of food and supplies arrived steadily. Meals and coffee were prepared by legion volunteers and were delivered daily to volunteers in the flooded areas. ACTIVITIES Ladies' Auxiliary president Sheila Masson and secretary Arleen Morrow attended the annual Ladies' Auxiliary convention in Smiths Falls in early May. This convention will be hosted at the West Carleton Legion Branch 616 next year. The West Carleton cribbage team of Donna Keays, Harriet Farrell, Larry David and Jim Wilson placed first at the district competition and so the West Carleton Legion will be hosting that event next year. The legion dart season wound up with the doubles team of Heidi Karow and Chad McTernan going to the provincial competition. MEMBERSHIP West Carleton Legion Branch 616 membership chair Jim Wilson reports that the Branch has 168 members in good standing at present. AIR CADETS The 706 Snowy Owl Squadron of the Royal Canadian Air Cadets held its annual ceremonial review on Sunday, June 4.

It is the time of year where we in Canada celebrate. It’s summer and it’s almost Canada Day. Surely this year will be a blast -- Canada 150 - EH? But tucked into the end of June, June 30th in fact, is a little known International awareness day: International Asteroid Day. I am Serious. What is it? Well, accordingly to the United Nations Press Release of December 7, 2016: The United Nations office for Outer Space Affairs (UNOOSA) is pleased to announce that the United Nations General Assembly (UNGA) has proclaimed that International Asteroid Day will be observed globally on June 30 every year. Why you ask? International Asteroid Day will raise public awareness of the asteroid hazard… Hazard Indeed! Why are you reading this, you may ask… This is a legal matter - we are touching on International law. It works like this… The United Nations Space Experts want to spend lots of money to educate everyone on earth about the Asteroid hazard (and no doubt what you should do if you come face to face with a plummeting asteroid). Where does the money come from: Well from member states, like Canada! Where does Canada get the money? Well, from all of us, of course! International Asteroid Day - your tax dollars at work!

Carp’s Brown wins elite triathlon in front of hometown crowd BY ERIN MCCRACKEN

jake.davies@metroland.com

Joanna Brown earned the top time in an elite women’s triathlon in front of a hometown Ottawa crowd, securing another important building block in her long-term plan of one day becoming an Olympian. “That was a really, really hard race,” said Brown, who high-fived spectators in the approach to the finish line of the women’s final of the elite Canadian Triathlon Championships during the Ottawa International Triathlon at Dow’s Lake June 18. “But I’m really happy with the way it turned out.” Winning in front of a large cheering section, made up of her family, friends and her boyfriend, made the victory that much sweeter. “It feels amazing,” she said postrace, while waiting for the podium ceremony to begin. “I’m just really happy with having a good day today and being able to have a good performance at home.” Brown crossed the finish line in first place in 59:46.8, followed by Edmonton’s Paula Findlay with a time of 1:00:14.5 seconds. Third place went to U.S. triathlete Tamara Gorman, with a time of 1:01:19.3. It’s just the latest strong showing for Brown, who secured two World Cup medals earlier this year. And it’s another recent sign that she is back on track after suffering setbacks in recent years, including a number of injuries. While nervous at the start of the first leg of the triathlon — a swim in Dow’s Lake — Brown quickly transitioned to the cycling segment and

While the wind worked against “I really surprised myself on the them, Brown said Findlay perfectly bike,” Brown said. “I was able to timed her breakaway. And when the break away with Paula Findlay. And pair rounded one corner of the looped she is such a strong cyclist, so I just close course, Findlay took off. And did my best to contribute as much as I Brown went after her. could to our breakaway.” After such a punishing bike ride,

Brown said she dug deep during the run, but maintained “a tempo pace” so as not to burn herself out before reaching the finish line. That’s where her training and race experience made all the difference. “You have to be really aware of your pacing and how much you can give. If you go too hard too soon then

it could be the end of your day,” she said, particularly in exceptionally hot weather. “You have to be so aware of how hard you’re working.” Pushing through the final gruelling leg of a triathlon — especially in hot, humid and windy conditions, which was the case during Sunday’s women’s finals — comes down, in part, to being mentally strong. “You can’t ever really back down,” said Brown, a member of Triathlon Canada’s national development team. “That’s something that you learn over years and years of competing. “You just have to keep believing in yourself and keep pushing through it, and the finish line comes a lot quicker than you usually think it will,” she said with a laugh. Brown will next compete in the World Triathlon Series in Hamburg, Germany in mid-July, where the winners become world champions. “It’ll be another building block,” said the full-time triathlete who trains in Victoria, B.C. where her coach is based. It’s also the site of Triathlon Canada’s National Performance Centre. “It’s funny. I actually get way more nervous for a race like this where I’m trying to win, versus the WTS where I’m just working on my development and getting faster at those races.” The 24-year-old has her sights set on qualifying for the 2020 and 2024 Olympic Games.

West Carleton Review - Thursday, June 22, 2017 31

Three generation dance routine at WCSOPA Showcase SPECIAL TO THE REVIEW

The 16th annual Showcase wrapped up the year for the West Carleton School of Performing Arts (WCSOPA). Held at the Ron Maslin Playhouse in Kanata on June 3 and June 4, this dance showcase featured routines by both competitive and recreational dancers. A highlight of the Showcase was WCSOPA’s first ever second generation WCSOPA dancer perform on stage. Hunter, who is the daughter of former WCSOPA competitive

dancer Jacci Colbourn, performed a three generation dance with her mother and also her grandmother. The Showcase also marked the choreography debut of former WCSOPA competitive dancer and now second year RedBlacks cheer dancer Riley Keindal. She choreographed a solo entitled I miss you, daddy which was a 911 tribute. The lighting for this Showcase added another dimension to the performances as it was stunning, designed by WOSOPA’s own

Katy Munro. In the Showcase, the WCSOPA dancers performed brilliantly. There was also some amazing singing during the Showcase, all strung together by a play about seven princesses on an adventure and a prince who sought the heart of one of them. “I could not have been more proud,” says WCSOPA director Melissa Demers. “The students worked so incredibly hard this year.” See ‘BEST SHOW TO DATE,’ page 36

32 West Carleton Review - Thursday, June 22, 2017

During the flooding emergency, the people of Ottawa were able to count on their neighbours, local organizations and volunteers from across the City for help.

Thank you all for your overwhelming generosity and support. The City is continuing to assist those residents still dealing with the aftermath of the flood.

Ottawa Women Leaders

Performing in the West Carleton School of Performing Arts Showcase are (at the front) Katrina Robar and (behind her, from left) Liel Ilatov, Adelaide Somoza, Tristan McCartney, Samantha Diotte and Lauren Wilkes.

Over the last few months, our association has been looking for ways to advance leadership in our community by promoting development opportunities, connecting ideas, people and businesses and most importantly assessing our own role as a leader in our business community. Why? Leadership as a significant economic driver and a way to create true prosperity in our city and our country. The current gap in leadership globally puts us all at risk of not reaching our potential and not meeting our responsibilities as community and business leaders. In addition to the issue of leadership is the question of gender equality. Women are recognized as having a unique mindset and skillset that is critical to our advancement in society and sustainable economic growth. We can share many examples of women who are having a significant impact. However, the truth is women remain the minority in most board rooms and high level roles. Women entrepreneurs have less access to capital funding and less support in growing their ventures. And women in the workplace continue to be compensated less for the same work. So although we can identify many efforts to level the playing field, the main advocates for women are still women. And collectively, we need to do a better job.

We need to say out loud that everyone; men and women, government and business, boomers and millennials are responsible for equality because it will benefit every aspect of our future. We need to be willing to embrace equity as a stepping stone to true equality. We need to acknowledge the unique role that women play in our families and communities and promote it as an invaluable advantage as it relates to economic prosperity and community building. We need to support women for the sake of supporting women until we can realize the full potential of equality. We are living in a world built on the foundation of inequality so we need a massive disruption of our current vision, culture and legislation. To what end? To becoming the best version of our community, our country and our world. This week has provided our association with countless opportunities to be inspired by women. Cheryl Jensen, President of Algonquin College, shared her approach to city building; asking more of ourselves, reaching out to work together and stepping up as leaders. Then we were invited to attend the launch of “The Entrepreneurship Commission,” a new initiative designed to support Canadian female entrepreneurs scale and grow their businesses. As a partner of this initiative, Shopify hosted a “real talk” panel to address some of the major barriers facing female entrepreneurs as well as share some of the programs being launched with the commission. Then we were invited to co-host the Ottawa’s inaugural Leadercast Women taking place this October 5, 2017 – mark your calendars. And finally, we have been blown away by the interest and support of our own launch of Ottawa Women Leaders. Our kick-off event called Women, Wine & Wisdom is designed to inspire greatness and create a conversation around women, leadership, life balance and legacy. Please check out our website or find us on Facebook for more details. Thank you to the men and women of this community willing to advance equality. We look forward to being a part of this disruption.

Cheers to your success, Sueling Sueling Ching | Executive Director West Ottawa Board of Trade | www.westottawabot.com The West Ottawa Board of Trade is a nonprofit, nonpartisan business association, independently driven and funded by business members.

VOLUNTEERS BRING NEW “VIBE”TO ACE UNIT

REFLECTING ON A

ACING CARE FOR THE ELDERLY

LANDMARK YEAR

In November 2016, Queensway Carleton Hospital officially opened its new Myers Automotive Acute Care of the Elderly (ACE) unit to the community. The 34-bed ACE unit is only the second of its kind in Ontario, uniquely designed to provide patients with a calm, quiet and family-friendly environment. Natural light fills patient rooms, glare-free flooring, extra wide hallways and spacious dining and lounge rooms invite families to be participants in the healing process, sharing in daily walks, meals and quiet times.

40 years of care at Queensway Carleton Hospital 2017 REPORT TO THE COMMUNITY It was a year filled with gratitude, as our Queensway Carleton Hospital (QCH) community celebrated 40 years serving West Ottawa and the surrounding region. It’s been 40 years of striving to provide the best possible care to our patients and our community. In many ways, this year marked a new chapter in our hospital’s journey, celebrating our past and planning for our future. In this Report to the Community, we want to share with you some of the hospital’s highlights that support providing you and your family with exemplary care. Together, we are committed to being your hospital of choice as we embark upon our next 40 years of care.

ENHANCED MENTAL HEALTH CARE AT QCH

INNOVATIVE NEW CRISIS INTERVENTION SERVICE CONNECTS PATIENTS WITH RESOURCES Meet Payam Noshad, a Registered Nurse who supports Queensway Carleton Hospital’s new Crisis Intervention Service. Implemented in June 2016, the Crisis Intervention Service runs seven days a week, 12 hours per day, to provide faster and more effective care to patients in crisis in QCH’s Emergency Department. Over the past three years, mental health visits to QCH’s Emergency Department have increased 19%. As a specialized mental health crisis nurse, Payam’s role is to support patients and connect them to community mental health resources and follow-up care. The team helps patients avoid unnecessary admission to hospital and ensures that they have a plan in place before they leave QCH, providing a much needed sense of comfort. 38 West Carleton Review - Thursday, June 22, 2017

“PATIENTS TELL US THAT THEY LEAVE QCH FEELING MORE HOPEFUL FOR FUTURE TREATMENT AND GRATEFUL FOR THE GIFT OF OUR TIME.” ~Payam Noshad, Registered Nurse The results of this new service have been tremendous; 99% of patients in need of our Crisis Intervention Service who have been discharged from the Emergency Department have left with community plans in place and the comfort of knowing what’s next.

To say it’s from an era gone by might be an understatement. A product of the late 1970s, Queensway Carleton Hospital’s Mental Health unit was not designed to support the optimal care of the thousands of patients our interdisciplinary mental health team cares for each year. As we have had to accommodate more patients, the unit simply fails to offer enough room for personal therapeutic interactions with the many professionals that support and care for them.

This past year we were proud to announce, with local MPP and Minister of Infrastructure, Bob Chiarelli and our committed donors that we have received approval to move forward with the total redevelopment and expansion of our mental health unit. The expansion and renovation is a giant leap forward in caring for our patients, fully transforming the current space into an environment designed for optimal healing and support.

“FROM HER FIRST MOMENTS ON THE UNIT,THE DIFFERENCE WAS CLEAR. THIS IS A UNIT THAT WAS BUILT TO INSPIRE WELLNESS AND GET [PATIENTS] BACK HOME AS SOON AS POSSIBLE.” ~ACE patient family member

QCH is fortunate to benefit from the generosity of over 500 volunteers who give more than 44,000 hours of support to QCH each year. As QCH has grown, so too has our committed team of volunteers. And so, as our Acute Care of the Elderly unit welcomed its first patients this fall, QCH also launched its newest volunteer program, Volunteer Involvement Benefiting Elders or “VIBE” as they are happily known on the ACE unit. QCH’s VIBE volunteers focus on the small, every day interactions that help maintain a baseline of functional and cognitive stimulation for patients’ health and wellbeing. Patients are accompanied by VIBE volunteers to the dining room to socialize during meals and they remind patients of the importance of hand hygiene and hydration throughout their stay. Reading the morning paper together or sharing in an afternoon crossword puzzle helps to encourage cognitive stimulation. Like the ACE Unit’s physical construction, the VIBE program is designed with purpose, to support the care of our elderly in the best possible way as integral members of the ACE care team.

PRECIOUS MINUTES MATTER When every moment counts, the hospital’s new “Code OB” ensures that the clinical team is alerted to the possibility of an obstetrical emergency and is ready to act within minutes. In collaboration with the Canadian Medical Protective Association, a multidisciplinary team made up of physicians and clinicians from obstetrics, anesthesiology and nursing collaborated to dramatically drive down the time to delivery for obstetrical emergencies at QCH. The “Code OB” project far exceeded the team’s expectations – decreasing time to delivery in an obstetrical emergency by 50%, surpassing the team’s goal of 30%. With support from across the hospital, this project increased collaboration and ultimately improves the care of our tiniest patients and their families.

The ACE unit’s intentional design runs far deeper than its construction alone. QCH is proud to have a specialized, interdisciplinary care team specifically trained in elder care to meet the unique needs of our complex, aging patients. And just six months after opening its doors, preliminary results have truly been encouraging. Patients are requiring less time on the ACE unit than expected, returning to health and home sooner than anticipated. As the needs of our community change, QCH wants to be ready, and the ACE unit provides a solid foundation for care in the years to come.

HOPES RISING is a campaign inspired by the hopes of families throughout our community to enhance QCH acute mental health services for late teens and adults of all ages in the greater Ottawa region. Through its success, this campaign will help Queensway Carleton Hospital deliver the right mental health care, at the right time, by the right people and in the right setting.

Funds raised will support an extensive renovation of the aging Mental Health Unit at Queensway Carleton Hospital, provide enhanced emergency programs and services for people in mental health crisis and, help strengthen connections to community mental health support services.

Lots of Eastern tent caterpillars BY MICHAEL RUNTZ

Today, television offers plenty of “reality” shows. From backwoods hillbillies in swampland to teams surviving challenges on remote islands, the topics are varied and wide-ranging. But in truth there is only one bonafide reality show and it requires no pay-for-view fees and can be seen in any local woods, meadow, pond, river, marsh, or backyard, and at any time of day. That reality show is, of course, nature. At any given moment a diversity of performances can be viewed, their genres ranging from romance to drama and even horror. Currently, exciting dramas are on view, with life and death battles galore. Many of the battles involve insects on the attack and plants on the defensive. In particular, caterpillars of moths and butterflies are busy devouring plants as they prepare for their next stage: the transformation into adulthood. One species of caterpillar is currently present in really large numbers. Eastern tent caterpillars, those well-known but seldom-loved caterpillars that create tent-like webs in trees, have had a good spring. Many trees that bore their webs have been defoliated, and the caterpillars have been forced to leave in search of new restaurants. If they got lucky, they found suitable substitutes in the leaves of rose bushes or apple trees. Eastern tent caterpillar moths mate in late summer, and lay their eggs in neat bundles on stems of cherry trees. These overwinter and in spring the tiny caterpillars that emerge collectively work to spin a silk web in the fork of their host tree. They leave the web to feed on leaves, and this takes place usually at night. After returning to the web to spend the day inside

it, they decorate its silk strands with myriad droppings. As the caterpillars grow, they enlarge the web, keeping a number of entrances open. In most years, the caterpillars are found in moderate numbers, and few trees become defoliated. But in some years, such as this one, they can be abundant, and their effects on trees can be prevalent. In many cases, new leaves grow back and the trees survive. But if a tree experiences a second defoliation, it might not survive. So can anything stop these caterpillars from killing all of the choke cherry trees and their relatives? Well, in nature when any resource occurs in great abundance, something soon takes advantage of it. Soon after snowshoe hares in the boreal forest become abundant, lynx experience an exponential growth in their population and they and other predators, which also become more plentiful, soon starting knocking hare numbers back. Eastern tent caterpillars are hairy and most birds do not eat hairy caterpillars. But one local species does, and it is taking advantage of the plentiful bounty. Black-billed cuckoos not only eat tent caterpillars, they also can eat part of their protective tent webbing. They do so because their crop can remove the hair and silk, and these items get coughed out, not unlike a cat releasing a hairball. And cuckoos are currently being seen all through our area. In addition to cuckoos, many small mammals including shrews eat tent caterpillars. Which gives rise to another reality show: Crazy Birds and Shrewd Assassins Attack Hairy Armies! – The Nature email is mruntz@start.ca

OPINION & NEWS

Connected to your community

With a full house on the farm Herbfest coming My daughter Anastasia needed a place to stay between houses. We agreed that she should move in to the farm for a week. That was great news, because it meant I would get to see my granddaughter quite a bit. Unfortunately it also meant I would be seeing and hearing more of Annie’s German Pointer, Skor. Skor is a beautiful dog. He is a sweet, energetic and fun-loving three year old. But he has a bad case of nerves. He is constantly jumping up on things including people, the furniture, parked cars and the door to the house. Within a few hours of being at the farm, Skor had scratched the front door beyond repair, busted a doorway through the wooden lattice work under the porch and formed a path through the three-foot-tall flowers in the front bed. Annie said she would repair whatever Skor wrecked. It’s a good thing she is only staying a week because I don’t think she could afford any more damage. Our pup Fergus loves having Skor and his considerably better behaved brother Rupert the Yellow Lab on the farm. Rupert puts up with Fergus bobbing up and down under his chin, nipping at his jowls and his ears. The bigger dog even teases the pup and engages him in play. Fergus is in heaven. One day Annie needed someone to watch the baby. Of course I volunteered. Leti and I were having a great

DIANA FISHER The Accidental Farmwife

day together, splashing in the pool and playing with her Barbie and pony collection. Then I noticed Fergus was missing. He had wriggled under the snow fence that I had strapped to the bottom of the barnyard fence. He was standing on the rock pile on the cattle side of the fence, challenging a groundhog he had discovered within. I called him to come back but he ignored me. I picked up my 18-monthold granddaughter and started toward him. He’s a smart dog, and he knows he isn’t supposed to be in the barnyard, where he could be harmed by a bull or overprotective cow. I approached him carefully. The trick is to catch up to him before he notices and starts running in the opposite direction. That’s when I saw the coyote. Not much bigger than Fergus, the young coyote was bounding along the fencerow toward my little dog. He appeared to want to play, but my instincts told me to get Fergus out of there. I picked up the pace, Leti bouncing and giggling along on my hip. I waved my free arm at the coyote and made as much noise as possible, hooting and hollering. Leti helped.

That seemed to scare him, because he turned tail and ran back in the direction from which he had come. Then I bent down and scooped up my gangly and awkward Golden Retriever pup. A dog on one hip and a toddler on the other, I turned and headed back to the house. It must have been quite a picture. Fergus was all wiggly and squirmy in my arms. He wanted to be released so he could go back to investigating groundhog hill. Leti kept trying to reach around and stick her fingers in Fergus’ mouth. I tried to keep them separate while walking as fast as physically possible, back out of the barnyard and across the lawn to the house. It’s possible that the coyote thought Fergus was one of his kind and just wanted to play, but I wasn’t taking any chances. For the next two days my back ached from the effort of carrying nearly fifty pounds of human and fur baby while running across a rocky pasture. The Farmer was less than enthusiastic when he learned we would have house guests — some of them with four legs. We kept the dogs in the basement or out on the porch when the Farmer was around — no use in poking the bear. On their second night with us, the baby wasn’t feeling well. Fever kept her up most of the night and so no one got more than a couple hours sleep. In the morning, Skor tested our bedroom door and found it to be unlocked. He bounded up onto the bed and licked the Farmer right across the face. That day my husband packed up his fishing equipment and took off to the lake with a few of his closest two-legged friends. The only full house he wants to see in the next week is in a card game. Email: dianafisher1@gmail.com www.theaccidentalfarmwife.blogspot.com

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!

CLUES ACROSS

ARIES – Mar 21/Apr 20 Aries, even if you want to take the lead on something, you have to pay attention to the chain of command in this situation. This may require you to play second fiddle for a little while.

LEO – Jul 23/Aug 23 Leo, extend your magnanimity to someone who may have recently spurned you. This will demonstrate that you can always be counted on to do the right thing.

SAGITTARIUS – Nov 23/Dec 21 Sagittarius, discuss your social calendar with others so that dates do not get confused and parties do not overlap. This way guests will not have to pick and choose which events to attend.

TAURUS – Apr 21/May 21 Taurus, you’re motivated to get started on a new project, but you may not have the means. Find out if anyone is willing to invest in your vision.

VIRGO – Aug 24/Sept 22 Virgo, if others can’t see your vision, you may have to forge on and hope for the best. Not everyone understands your brand of thinking, and you need to accept that.

CAPRICORN – Dec 22/Jan 20 Ignore any hurtful comments that may come your way, Capricorn. Your emotional strength is potent, and you can successfully ride out any storm.

GEMINI – May 22/Jun 21 Avoid conflicts by talking through the situation with someone who has opposing views, Gemini. When you understand others’ perspectives, you can be more accommodating.

LIBRA – Sept 23/Oct 23 Libra, now might be time for a new career or a return to the workforce if you have been away. You just may discover a new identity through your work.

CANCER – Jun 22/Jul 22 Cancer, if life gets a little hectic this week, find a spot where you can relax and enjoy the quiet for a little while. Recharging the batteries may be all that’s needed.

SCORPIO – Oct 24/Nov 22 Keep up the good work in furthering your relationship progress, Scorpio. Your commitment is even stronger than it has been in the past. This is a great step forward.

AQUARIUS – Jan 21/Feb 18 Aquarius, if you are being called on to wear many hats at work, it is only right that you be compensated accordingly. This is a week for showing the bosses you mean business.
