For the ‘Goode Run, the sixth time is the charm.

“On a number of different levels this year was our most successful year yet,” said Nicole McKerracher, executive director at the Osgoode Youth Association (O-YA), of the May 14 event. “We did a lot of things differ-

ently that worked out very well for us.”

More than 530 runners participated in the sixth annual ‘Goode Run fundraiser for O-YA this year, raising just over $30,000 for the organization. This is just shy of the 2016 goal of $35,000, but McKerracher said that this year was still a step in the right direction.

reached last year’s total,” she said. “I mean, $30,000 is amazing as it is.”

Impressive still, runners were still able to reach the fundraising total of last year’s event even though there were slightly fewer of them. It took just 535 runners to raise $30,000 for O-YA this year, where 560 runners raised the same total in 2015.

NEW SUCCESS

This year’s ‘Goode Run was very different from the event in previous years.

First, it took place at the Osgoode Community Centre instead of its former home at O-YA. “We thought the race had outgrown us here,” McKerracher said of relocating the race. “People were very supportive of the move.”

O-YA is the big winner Continued from the front

Race organizers were concerned that hosting the race at the community centre would distract from the event’s root cause: fundraising for the youth association.

However, McKerracher said “there was no question once you were over there” that the event was all about O-YA. Hosting the ‘Goode Run at the Osgoode Community Centre allowed for more space to accommodate participants and the 72 volunteers it took to make the event run smoothly.

The larger location also made the start and finish line area flow better, McKerracher said.

Another change to this year’s event was the addition of a new route for the 2K

Paws on Main family fun run and walk sponsored by the Osgoode Vet Clinic.

Now, all three events – including the 5K and 10K distances – travel through Osgoode proper.

The Paws on Main event itself was also new this year; participants in the 2K event were encouraged to bring their dogs along with them on the course.

“That was really fun,” McKerracher said. “The kids loved it because there were dogs everywhere.”

BIGGER AND BETTER

This year’s event may have drawn slightly fewer runners, but McKerracher said the ‘Goode Run saw more participation overall.

Between the runners, the

volunteers and the new location, there were a lot more people than usual milling around during the event. Plus, the new routes through town drew larger crowds of spectators, McKerracher said, who did wonders cheering on runners as they passed.

“This year’s event was really where we want to be at,” she said.

The event also drew the attention of some big city names this year: Mayor Jim Watson and MP Pierre Poilievre made appearances, while local Coun. George Darouze ran both the 2K and the 5K this year.

Plans for next year’s ‘Goode Run are already in motion in preparation for an even bigger event next May. McKerracher said to watch the O-YA website for updates.

The sixth annual ‘Goode Run on Saturday, May 14 brought in more than $30,000 for the Osgoode Youth Association (O-YA). Next year’s event is already in the works for May.

Human bones found on Manotick construction site

Look inside for the

Investigation ongoing, foul play undetermined

In Your Community Newspaper*

the Ottawa Police Service said the investigation was turned over to a forensics department in Toronto once the bones were confirmed to be human.

The bone pieces have been sent for further analysis, where information such as the age of the bones will be determined.

A usually quiet neighbourhood in Manotick was sent into a flurry of activity last week when human bones were found on a construction site.

Tim Carver and his business partner Jason Pink – who together own JP Carver Contracting – came across a human jawbone and a few vertebrae as they were digging at a residence on Cabrelle Place before installing a new deck in the afternoon on Tuesday, May 10.

“We were a little freaked out, to be honest,” said Carver in an interview with Metroland Media. “You don’t see that every day.”

Carver and Pink immediately called the police upon discovering the bones, which Carver said were only buried about a foot below ground level.

Breaking into community theatre ITR Theatre encourages newcomers to audition for fall productions Given her profession as a teacher and her love of the stage, no one would guess that Joanna Jackson Kelly – who recently joined ITR Theatre Company for their production of The Foreigner – is shy.

“This, for me, was a way for me to break out of my shell a little bit,” Jackson Kelly said of her experience with the production. “Being on stage, that helps to build confidence.”

Now that The Foreigner has wrapped up, ITR is gearing up to host auditions for two productions they have in the works for this fall.

Jackson Kelly said she would encourage anyone who has even the slightest desire to get into community

Facebook

For Joanna Jackson Kelly (back row, left), who played Catherine Simms in the ITR Theatre Company’s The Foriegner, breaking into community theatre was about overcoming her natural shyness. Now, she recommends beginners audition in June for the company’s upcoming productions. theatre, whether they have experience or not, to try out for a role.

BREAKING INTO THEATRE

Jackson Kelly, a Nepean

resident with experience as a teacher, decided to try out for a role in The Foreigner on a whim.

“I wanted to do something creative other than music,” she said. Jackson Kelly sings

and has her Grade 9 in piano from The Royal Conservatory of Music (RCM). “Theatre seemed like it would push me out of my comfort zone.”

Other than a brief stint with drama classes when she was in high school, Jackson Kelly has no experience with acting. However, she found that she was not the only theatre-newbie in the company.

“I thought you had to be great already to audition for this kind of thing,” she said, adding that as long as you’re willing to learn, ITR is very accepting of the inexperienced.

“You don’t have to know everything to go in,” she continued. “Obviously – because I didn’t. But once you get into it they (the other actors) are very helpful people.”

After her audition, Jackson Kelly landed the role of Catherine Simms, a former debutant from Georgia.

Jackson Kelly said she quickly learned the ins and outs of community theatre

from her peers and was soon relishing the time she got to spend with Catherine and the rest of the characters.

“This, for me, is a way to be someone different for a while,” she said. “It’s fun. I am going to miss Catherine for sure.”

AUDTIONS

ITR Theatre is hosting auditions for its upcoming oneact productions, My Narrator and The Death of Me, in June. Sheila Dubyk, director of community outreach at ITR, said anyone and everyone is welcome to audition.

Even beginners, Jackson Kelly said, should give it a go. All you need is a desire to learn and to work within a supportive team of other actors.

“You would be surprised how quickly you can pick it up when you’re having fun,” she said.

ITR is getting ready to cast roles in two, one-act productions that will show between Nov. 18 and 20 and Nov. 25 and 27 this fall.

The first of the plays, My Narrator, is about what happens when your inner voice

comes to life. “Imagine what would happen if that little voice inside your head – the one that tells you how to behave and what choices to make – suddenly took on a life of its own?” the ITR website reads.

The second, The Death of Me, explores how difficult it is to change the past when the main character asks for a second chance at life.

“When John (Adderly) bargains with the Angel of Death for a second chance at life, he quickly discovers that fixing the mistakes of his past is difficult,” says the ITR website.

Auditions will be held at the Osgoode Community Centre (5660 Osgoode Main St.) on June 11 from 2 to 4 p.m., with call-backs happening on June 17 from 7 to 9 p.m.

“I would definitely recommend this to someone who is shy, who needs help to come out of their shell,” Jackson Kelly said.

“This first experience for me was excellent, and I definitely want to do more.”

Coun. George Darouze said that the fact that the city’s decision to defer a new stormwater charge until the fall is proof that public consultation works.

The City voted recenty to push the proposal back, after rounds of consultations in March and April drew huge crowds and plenty of feedback from disgruntled rural residents. On the left is a typical rural ditch just south of the village of Osgoode.

Osgoode Coun. George Darouze said the fact that a decision to defer a new stormwater rate until the fall is proof that public consultation works.

“The most important thing to remember is, it’s not a done deal,” Darouze said, adding staff decided to put the proposal on hold after hearing how much rural residents are paying into the municipal drain system.

Darouze said there were four public consultations in the rural areas that were very well attended.

“This worked exactly like it’s supposed to,” he said, adding Mayor Jim Watson said he heard residents’ concerns.

The city hosted a round of public consultations throughout March and April that looked at a rejigged water and sewer rate structure and a plan to recover money for stormwater services.

Rural residents flooded the meetings, protesting a plan to start billing the 45,000 residents who don’t currently receive a water bill from the city.

Under the proposal, rural residents would be on the hook for $2 million for stormwater management.

The city’s total stormwater management annual budget is $42 million, with $8.4 million allocated to the rural area.

Adele Muldoon, who made the trek to the city hall public consultation from West Carleton, said the city should have kept it the way it was before amalgamation.

Before that, residents paid an annual fee for the maintenance of ditches and culverts.

Muldoon says the ditches are now poorly maintained, adding one of her neighbours has trees growing in her ditch.

Darouze said it’s sentiments like that one, that sent staff back to the drawing board.

“We don’t know what’s going to happen yet,” he said. “We will hear in September.”

Park plan becomes PR disaster for city

I

t should have been a good news story, but instead has become a public relations disaster.

No, not the bench clearing ‘manhandling’ and ‘elbowgate’ rumble last week in the House of Commons. No, this PR faux pas surrounds the plan to build the nation’s largest playground at Mooney’s Bay Park as part of a reality TV show involving kids.

Yes, a TV show project that will leave the city with a destination location for any families with children visiting Ottawa has become a hot potato at city hall. This is all because a secret deal to get involved in the project has left many residents and organizations that use the site to stage their events crying foul that they were not informed in advance nor has there been any public consultation.

When you have a former Olympian such as Sue Holloway, who lives near Mooney’s Bay and has a fitness area in the park named after her, speaking out, you know the public relations optics surrounding this project have gone off the rails. The city is contributing almost $1 million to the approximately $2-million project, which will be filmed for the Giver children’s TV show.

The show will involve filming the construction of the playground and involve kids as they assist in the construction project that will take the shape of Canada. The structure is scheduled to open on July 1, 2017, to mark the country’s 150th birthday.

It sounds like a win-win for the city. A Canada 150 legacy project, with the city getting a $2-million playground for half price as the TV show will also put in $1 million. You can see why those at city hall thought it would be a no-brainer as something the community as a whole could rally around.

But the lack of public notice, let alone public consultation, looks bad in light of the fact that in the very same week the Mooney’s Bay Park brouhaha has emerged, city councillors such as George Darouze have been touting how effective public consultations can be after the city’s decision to defer changes to its stormwater rate fee structure after rural residents pushed back.

The Mooney’s Bay Park project is exactly the type of Canada 150 legacy project city residents will enjoy for years as opposed to yet more fireworks shows. Yes, the PR optics may be bad, but sometimes things just need to get done.

A very Canadian way to create Order

I

was at Rideau Hall the other day, watching 48 Canadians, including a cousin and a former boss, be inducted into the Order of Canada. The day gave me a greater appreciation of both the Order and the setting in which it was awarded.

You wouldn’t say that the recipients represented a crosssection of Canada. This group, on this day, was predominantly white, and predominantly anglo.

Still, there was an impressive range of accomplishments among the inductees — some athletes, some teachers, some in the helping professions and the arts, a couple of writers and a bunch of scientists and doctors. A couple of the inductees were famous; most were not.

That in itself is encouraging. You can be someone whose accomplishments don’t put you

CHARLES GORDON Funny Town in the headlines, yet be shown appreciation by your country. Typically, someone in your community nominates you and then you go through a screening process.

Those who have not seen the ceremony and seen the pride Order of Canada recipients take in it may underestimate its significance and its impact on those who are chosen. The fact that recipients proudly wear the lapel pin whenever they can shows that they know it’s important and they’re happy to have it.

The ceremony itself reflects

that. There is a formality to it — with a string quartet playing introductory music, the presence of the governor general and various uniformed functionaries, the recipient bowing to the GG before hearing a brief recitation of his or her accomplishments.

But we are not a formal people.

The string quartet played a Beatles tune. Several of the recipients had small cheering sections that whooped, possibly violating protocol, as their friends were introduced. A couple of the inductees broke through the formality with little gestures of celebration that brought laughs from the crowd.

And at the end of the ceremony, there was enthusiastic applause for all the recipients that went on far longer than you would expect.

Clearly, both inductees and audience were moved by what they had seen.

So what might originally have been thought of as a formal, British-style ceremony, became quite Canadian, and all the more moving for that.

Some of the credit for this goes to Rideau Hall itself, and the people who work there. The building is grand and regal, but the folks inside are friendly and helpful.

Anyone who enters intimidated by the surroundings soon relaxes, because there is a staffer at every turn who can tell you where to go, what to do, what happens next. There is no stiffness. They all smile.

The rooms are lovely as is the garden out back, where people strolled — and even smoked — after the ceremony. The larger grounds themselves are well-used, by locals as well as tourists, after an unfortunate period in the 1980s when they were closed to the public, for reasons that were never made entirely clear.

of them, who think that having a governor general in Canada is a colonial relic. But most people don’t feel that way. We will likely have a governor general and Rideau Hall for decades, if not centuries, to come. Given that, we are fortunate that both the institution and the place have become so welcoming and comfortable for Canadians.

The iconic furniture company is holding a grand opening celebration of its awardwinning store design starting May 27, 2016 and featuring a shopping experience as comfortable as its famous furniture. The new store – located at 8231 Campeau Drive in Kanata which occupies just over 19,000-square-feet– boasts a remarkable selection of great looking furniture for the entire home, all presented in inspiring room displays organized by lifestyle.

The store represents a new design format for La-Z-Boy, and truly embodies the “Live life comfortablySM” tagline.

“We offer furniture to fit nearly every lifestyle and design, and our beautiful new store in Kanata provides a refreshing new shopping experience for customers,” said David Maxwell store owner. “La-Z-Boy today is so much more than recliners – and customers will really be amazed when they walk into the new store to find bright and colorful displays inviting them to relax and explore.”

The new location also offers a large selection of home accents and accessories to help customers create a complete look.

Ottawa residents will also get a chance to see this great new format with the opening of a new location on West Hunt Club Road. Opening near Lowe’s Home Improvements, this store relocated from the corner of Merivale and Hunt Club Rd and will continue to offer residents of Ottawa the inspiration they’re used to with great-looking fully accessorized room displays and dramatic décor ideas.

No Pressure Shopping Both stores also offer two convenient approaches for shoppers who seek design direction. Customers looking to visualize their custom furniture dreams can use interactive design tools to render any La-Z-Boy product in their choice of hundreds of fabric and leather covers. For those who need more inspiration and guidance, La-Z-Boy stores also offer free In-Home Design Assistance from professionals experienced at helping turn design dreams into reality. La-Z-Boy designers will also visit customer’s homes to help them with their design project and advise on styles that will fit comfortably into their home and budget.

“Our associates provide a comfortable shopping environment from selection through delivery,” said Maxwell.

“Consumers can be assured that they will enjoy a comfortable no-pressure experience while at our stores – we’re truly here to help.”

Week In Review

The ‘Goode Run is a family-organized run that is also the largest run/walk event in our Ward, and all proceeds go directly back into the O-YA centre in Osgoode. Organizers Nicole McKerracher and Matt Nesrallah from O-YA have an army of volunteers behind them that work countless hours to make sure the day goes smoothly, with over 500 participants! I participated in two runs, the 2 km and the 5 km, with some of my council colleagues and many friends and families. Music

by BobbyB Productions, the local Volunteer Firefighters that barbecued (with all proceeds going to Fort McMurray fund), and face painters were just some of the people that made it special. This year they raised in excess of $30,000. Fantastic job everyone!! I look forward to running again next year....maybe 10 km??

The Registered Nurses’ Association of Ontario (RNAO) held a great breakfast this past Friday at the RA centre. Their focus was to engage local politicians in brief discussions on issues that are concerning to them in their profession. Issues included preventing management violence in the Workplace; PTSD in nursing; keeping the promise of an additional 9,000 nursing positions on track; RNs being replaced by lesser qualified staff and the full scope of practice for RNs. Connecting with the nurses at each table was a great way to interact and hear them out to become informed of their issues. Excellent way to end International Nurses’ Day!

The turnout for the Osgoode Public School Spring Fling was so strong, and an excellent way to end my work week meeting up with families and friends! The BBQ, Bouncy Castle, Silent Auction and other activities was all geared towards families spending some quality time together outdoors! It was great to be a part of it all. Thank you to the organizers.

I made a quick visit to the Farmers’ market and came away with lots of fresh local tomatoes and cucumbers! You can smell and taste the freshness of it all. Next door was the Metcalfe Co-op Nursery School having their garage sale with many people browsing in and out with items. The last stop was the Boot and Trunk Sale at St. Andrews United Church. It was a good turnout there too, and great place to pick up needed items for projects!

The Historical Walk that started at the Metcalfe Town Hall had 50 people that came and enjoyed a little local history on Metcalfe.

Thank you Jane Cooper for organizing and hosting the walk. Great idea!

The wrap up meeting was held briefly on Monday night with a large number of the team members present. It was a night to reflect and discuss not only how well it went over, but to also make suggestions for the next one in May 2017. Bigger and better! There were so many people to thank for the great organization and execution of this unique village event knowing that it could not happen without them. Village spirit is alive and well in Metcalfe for sure!

It’s always nice to see the Ottawa Champions back in town and ready for another season. These games are a great family activity that isn’t too expensive. Take them out to the ball game and enjoy some time together! Look into their packages available on their website www.ottawachampions.com for more information.

The Ottawa Regional Cancer Foundation Fundraiser Breakfast had over 400 business and community leaders in attendance to listen and share stories from Cancer survivors and how they couldn’t do it without the help of ORC and Maplesoft Centre. Since 2009, the breakfasts have raised over $2.5 million! Every dollar stays right here in our community.

ITR’s play, “The Foreigner”, was by far one of the most comical that I have had the pleasure to attend! All sold out shows were treated to some great laughter and excellent performances by the cast. I love to support local theatre groups to see all the hidden talents that we have here in our Ward. Keep up the great work and I’m looking forward to the Fall show. Stay tuned here for updates closer to the Fall time. It was, how did they say, “REMARKABLE”!!

NOTICE OF PASSING OF ZONING BY-LAWS BY THE CITY OF OTTAWA The Council of the City of Ottawa passed By-laws 2016-153, 2016-154, 2016-155, 2016-156 and 2016-157 on May 11, 2016, under Section 34 of The PLANNING ACT.

Michel Lemieux, said the building is a bit more than just a race cart track, saying the 155,000-square-foot office space was indeed built differently, with the company keeping in mind what the best way to support creative and innovative workspace would be.

Turns out it does include a slide and welcoming children

– as Lemieux explained, the company is embracing how home and work-life mix.

“It’s about integration of personality types,” Lemieux said, adding the company wanted to have a workspace designed that reflected how people work best – whether it is sometimes in a team environment, and sometimes on their own.

Having started the company at a table in the Bridgehead coffee shop on Elgin Street, Lemieux said they have constantly been pushing the boundaries of office design.

The new space includes six floors, each featuring a different theme.

Parks GM takes questions over proposed mega park Jennifer McIntosh

jennifer.mcintosh@metroland.com

Residents want some questions answered over a proposal to build a mega park at Mooney’s Bay, Knoxdale-Merivale Coun. Keith Egli said at the May 19 community and protective services committee.

Egli wanted to know how long the city knew about the plan for the park before making the announcement.

Dan Chenier, the general manager for the park and recreation department, took the hot seat to answer questions around the city’s contribution to the super-sized, 4,600-square metre play structure.

“I know I have gotten a lot of calls from residents who are looking for answers,” Egli said. Chenier said Sinking Ship Entertainment approached the city on Jan. 5 – the announcement was made on May 13. “The production company was in talks with the NCC (National Capital Commission) prior to discussions with the city,” Chenier said, adding he couldn’t say which sites the company looked at before entering into negotiations with the

city.

A spokesperson from the NCC wouldn’t comment on which sites were considered before the company began negotiations with the city.

It will be the 42nd park built by the production company. The structure will be shaped like Canada and feature 10 mini parks representing the provinces. The construction will be filmed and aired in 10 episodes.

The show is called Giver, and runs on TVO. Kids across Canada will be recruited to star in the show and cameras will follow them as they help build the playground with Michael Lagimodiere, a contractor and designer. Organizers are also hoping to break a Guinness World Record by building the longest set of continuous monkey bars. College Coun. Rick Chiarelli said when he works with city staff to build a park in his ward, they usually recommend not having monkey bars. “Every time there’s a park built in my ward there’s resistance to monkey bars, and now we are building the world’s longest,” he said. Chiarelli also said he was concerned about the fate of festivals like Dragon Boat and Hope

Volleyball. Chenier said the city has kept Dragon Boat organizers in the loop on the project since February.

Prep work for the park is slated for completion by June 16.

The city will provide festival organizers with sandbags to secure 82 team tents on top of a ground covering that is necessary ahead of work on the playground, Chenier said.

That membrane can’t be staked with tent pegs.

Chenier said the work might interfere with bike parking planned for the site, so organizers are looking for an alternative location.

Sinking Ship will host a public open house in June, Chenier said, addressing questions around the lack of public consultations. The project comes with a $2 million price tag.

The city’s portion will be $959,000.

That’s the maximum amount under the capital partnership grant program, which comes from citywide cash-in-lieu of parking dollars.

While several committee members talked about working on the process so the public can have their say, Gloucester-South Nepean Coun.

Michael Qaqish tried to put the issue in perspective.

“It’s not that often that people come to us with $1 million to fund a project of this nature,” he said, adding the festivals come to Mooney’s Bay once a year. “Let’s not look at a $1 million gift horse in the mouth.”

Green party leader speaks out against Carlsbad Springs project Brier Dodge

brier.dodge@metroland.com

Green Party of Ontario leader Mike Schreiner was in Carlsbad Springs on May 15 to add his voice to those speaking out against the proposed Taggart Miller Capital Region Resource Recovery Centre.

He agreed with citizens’ group Dump This Dump 2 that the site is inappropriate, and addressed a number of their frustrations. One frustration being the consultation process which included documents that are extremely technical and which they claim didn’t leave enough time for independent experts hired by the citizens’ group to review.

“It’s clear to me that often times citizens are frozen out of the process,” Schreiner said. “I think they’re failing us.”

His comments were timely, as the environmental assessment for the CRRRC has been completed and the report is currently in the hands of Ontario Minister of the Environment Glen Murray. Murray can accept the environmental assessment report, reject it, or send it to a tribunal for further review.

The residents in the Dump This Dump 2 group have been urging him to deny it or send it to a tribunal. They have been putting pressure on local politicians, protesting outside Ottawa-Orléans MPP Marie-France Lalonde and Glengarry-Prescott-Russell MPP Grant Crack’s offices, hoping the MPPs will speak out in opposition of the CRRRC. “I do trust the process and I think right now there’s a rigorous back and forth between the proponent, the minister and the residents

Green Party of Ontario leader Mike Schreiner, sixth from left, joined members of the citizens group Dump This Dump 2 in Carlsbad Springs on May 16. He is encouraging the Minister of the Environment to either deny the environmental assessment for the Taggart Miller Capital Region Resource Recovery Centre, or send it to a tribunal. concerned,” Lalonde said. “It’s a very impartial process and very rigorous … I was very clear with the group from the beginning: I would be their advocate in facilitating the discussion but I trust the process.”

Schreiner, who doesn’t hold a seat as an elected MPP, said he thought the process was “rigged” against the citizens.

He said families in the area have been there for generations, and to have farmland threatened by a dump “we don’t even need is a travesty.”

“This is a farming community.

This is a community clearly of people who have been tied to this land for generations,” Schreiner said.

“And to have that threatened for a dump that we don’t even need? We already have over capacity in the region anyway.”

Taggart Miller has said the site, which would have both recycling facilities and a landfill, won’t impact ground water or neighbouring farmland. The proposed facility would be for industrial and commercial waste.

But residents in the area have been concerned through the multi-

year process that the ground water will be contaminated and the leda clay in the area makes it an unsuitable location.

Lalonde said the proponent – Taggart Miller – has had to submit answers to every concern voiced to the ministry, and she trusts the “highly rigorous” process.

Schreiner said the Green Party of Ontario has supported other landfill sites in Ontario that are more suitable for the proposed area.

In Toronto in 2007, the party supported the City of Toronto purchasing the Green Lane Landfill near St. Thomas, Ont. He said the site was an example of a landfill operation that met socially, fiscally and environmentally sustainable best practices at the time.

He doesn’t think the CRRRC is a sustainable project. The Green Party of Ontario’s priority is to support a zero waste strategy in Ontario before opening new landfills.

Following the five week window where the minister accepts comments from the community on the environmental assessment review, he will have time to decide and then issue a decision.

This allows for the design of flight paths that are shorter – reducing flight times and reducing fuel burn as well as related greenhouse gas emissions. RNP also enables Continuous Descent Approaches (CDA); these reduce level segments and are the quietest type of approach.

Initially, only a small portion of aircraft – less than 25 per cent – will be equipped to fly the new procedure. As part of the proposed redesign, some standard arrival routes are also being updated.

No changes are proposed for departure routes.

The proposed flight paths are estimated to save up to two minutes flying time for arrivals while GHG reductions are estimated at 750 metric tonnes each year.

NAV CANADA has made information – including maps – on proposed flight path changes available online at www.navcanada.ca/YOW. Residents are invited to learn about changes and provide feedback using the comment tool available on the website by June 30, 2016. Residents can also attend the following Open House Consultation Events: June 2, 2016 – 6:30 to 8:30 p.m.

Opening of parlour marks start of new season

F

inally, once again we were allowed into the parlour.

It had been closed up as tight as a drum since the first snow fall months before. The braided rug rolled up on the floor tight to the door sealing the cold air in, and keeping the warm air of the kitchen out, had been thrown over the fence and beaten with the broom and rolled up in the Renfrew Mercury and tucked under a bed until needed again.

The only time the parlour door had been open since being shut off for the winter, was when it was our turn to have the Saturday night house party. And as soon as the last body went home, slam went the door and down went the braided rug!

That day, when I came home from school and walked into the kitchen, there was the parlour door wide open. The only window was on the north side and so

MARY COOK Mary Cook’s Memories the sun hadn’t penetrated the room and I could still feel the chill of the long winter months when it was closed up.

But it was like a new adventure to me, being able to use the parlour again. It was as if I had never seen the room before! Of course, nothing had changed. The horsehair settee, the largest piece of furniture, sat kitty corner, and the twig table beside, still held the big family Bible, which was full of pieces of paper telling of births, deaths, and marriages.

And even though I loved to look at the Bible, it held a bit of terror for me, too.

Because pressed between its pages were several dried up flowers, taken right off the casket of a departed relative. Nobody seemed to know whose casket they came from, and that alone was enough to cause goose bumps on my arms.

Just like before a Saturday night house party, it took a couple of days for the odors of the closed-up parlour to smell, as Father called it “decent.” To me it smelled like old wet galoshes, and then there were the mothballs. Mother put an ample amount of them all over the room, and I could never understand if it was to cover

the moldy smell, or to keep away the moths. Mother tucked them into the crevices of the settee, they sat on the twig table, and I even found some under the braided rug by the one sitting-chair in the room.

Of course, there would be dust everywhere. And so it was my job to wipe the furniture and take the whisk to the cushions, and generally try to bring the parlour back to whatever grandeur it had.

And the parlour was not considered a room for frivolity! Games were never to be played in it, and any roughhousing was absolutely out of the question. On the walls were pictures of those who had passed on. Big oval pictures of stern faces looking like they carried the cares of the entire world on their shoulders. I often wondered, as I looked on them with awe, if they had ever smiled even once during their long lives.

One frame held someone’s braided hair, worked into a semi circle, with a small tin-type picture underneath it. That picture gave me the willies, and I did everything in my power to keep my eyes averted from it when I was in the parlour.

Mother didn’t like it any better than I did and once she told Father she was going to get rid of it. Father looked like he had been struck with a plank and said the hair in the frame had been there long before he was born and that’s where it would be staying. Mother asked him whose hair it was and he had no idea, but nonetheless, it was not to be taken down.

And so it stayed and like the dried flowers pressed in the family Bible, put a chill in the parlour for me that even the hot summer days couldn’t erase. And it was in the parlour that we five children sat when we settle

THE ART OF PERFORMANCE

down with a book from the Renfrew Library. Never were we allowed to read at the kitchen table, just in case a crumb or a spot of butter got on a page, and we would have to pay for the book when we took it back.

I was always glad when the parlour was opened after the long winter and it was a place to read, settled down on the horsehair settee. It was a small room, and when I sat there alone with my library book, even though the pictures on the walls gave me pause, it was a place where I could escape into a fantasy world, lost in the pages of my book from the Renfrew Library.

In which the Farmer becomes a “sexagenarian.” Really. That’s what it’s called

T

he Farmer turns 60 this month. We celebrated with something that I will likely never undertake again, as long as I live. I booked the Legion hall and threw him a surprise party.

I started planning the surprise months ago. I sent out the invitations, booked the hall and gave our girls their individual assignments for slideshow, music playlist, birthday cake, décor. I don’t know what I would have done without their help and the help of my mother and sister and friends. But when it came to the development of a believable fib that would get my husband to his own surprise birthday party on time, I was on my own.

And I’m a terrible liar.

The anxiety set in about two weeks before the event.

I worried he would make real estate appointments for the night of the party,

DIANA FISHER The Accidental Farmwife or he just wouldn’t feel like going out. Someone asked how would I get him to the hall on time? I decided I would tell him we were going to the surprise 40th of a girlfriend of mine.

“Which friend?” she asked.

“It has to be someone he doesn’t know very well, but knows well enough to want to go to her party. You need a backstory. You need to know her birthdate, her middle name….” It worries me how much thought my daughter puts into telling a lie. She’s good.

The morning of the party, I still hadn’t told my husband that we had plans

that night. Finally I blurted out, “it’s Mr. Stover’s retirement party tonight. You know, he taught with my dad for years.” I gulped.

He said ok. Then he said he planned to spend the day running around doing real estate stuff, and he would drive into the city to visit his dad. Good, I thought.

Because I have to spend the day zipping around town buying decorations, getting my hair done, picking up helium balloons, collecting and testing audiovisual equipment and setting up the hall. I didn’t need to run into him.

On my first trip into

town to pick things up, I ran into him. His eyes followed me as I drove on by.

I smiled, waved and gulped.

I should have been at work by then and he knew it. I sent him a text message.

“Late for work! We need to be at the hall by 7:30 for speeches…” I got an “x” in return. I thought he was on to me. The adrenalin was upsetting my stomach.

We were late getting access to the hall and being technologically un-inclined, the set-up of the slideshow took me a lot longer than expected. I needed to get home to whip up the spaghetti I had promised the birthday boy for dinner.

After our meal, “We don’t have to be the first ones there, do we?” he asked. “Uh, no, but I don’t want to miss the speeches,” I reminded him.

When we pulled up to the building, one of my friends was outside, smok-

ing a cigarette. When she recognized my truck she ran in to assemble everyone. Climbing the steps to the hall, the Farmer says, “Who is this party for, again?” He is 60. We are both getting forgetful. My heart was pounding. I had almost succeeded in surprising him. Then he saw the slideshow of our photos on the wall. He stopped and peeked around the corner. I had to pull him into the room.

“Oh no you didn’t,” he said. Everyone jumped out then to surprise him, and I could relax. I thought I was going to have a heart attack. The adrenalin rush was a bit much. I really don’t think I will be doing that again. But I think the Farmer was pleasantly surprised, and a little overwhelmed. Mission accomplished.

Most people don’t believe me when I tell

them the Farmer is sixty years old. He looks much younger than that – but then, sixty is much younger these days. People don’t really retire –they just switch focus.

Today’s pre-seniors spend more time pursuing quality of life – hobbies and activities they enjoy.

After retiring from teaching, my sixty-year-old is working on his new career as a real estate agent.

In his spare time he is cattle farming, building a log cabin, cooking Sunday dinners for up to twenty people a week and spending time deep in conversation with his new granddaughter. Life is looking pretty good at sixty.

And the age comes with a sexy title. dianafisherbooks.com theaccidentalfarmwife. blogspot.com dianafisher1@gmail.com

They twisted and they shouted The sounds of Buddy Holly and Chubby Checker greeted guests at the Jumpin’ and Jivin’ for WDMH Gala on Saturday, May 14 at the Winchester Community Centre.

The WDMH Foundation Board – along with anniversary sponsor Cloverdale Links Golf Course – were thrilled to welcome close to 250 people for an evening with lots of fun, great food and dancing, all for a great cause.

In they process they raised a whooping $53,000 for patient care at WDMH. Foundation Board Chair Anne Van Delst welcomed guests and noted that “The Foundation is honoured to work with our local communities to raise much-needed funds for hospital equipment. Our community provides incredible support to the WDMH Foundation, and, in turn, you also support the hospital and the patients and families that we care for. That is what tonight is all about.”

The evening included a gourmet meal complete with a sundae bar catered by Winchelsea Events, a silent auction and 50/50 draw and dancing to the music of Johnny and the Cruizers. There were some surprises too including a piethrowing contest with WDMH CEO Cholly Boland as the willing target.

“We are so happy that so many community members and sponsors were able to join us for our 50s prom,” said Kristen Casselman, Managing Director. “We are truly grateful to everyone for your support.”

The funds raised will support WDMH’s highest priority needs.

“Many people are not aware that our tax dollars do not fund medical equipment. This event is one of the many ways we are raising money to ensure the best equipment for the best care at WDMH,” added Kristen.

The Ottawa Public Library Board approved a plan for public engagement on May 10 over the development of a new main branch in the city’s core.

The city has retained PACE – the same consultant the Ottawa Hospital used for its expansion plans of the Civic campus.

The first round of consultations is set to take to take place on May 16 at city hall.

Library CEO Danielle McDonald said the process was “sufficiently agile” to take staff through the citybuilding initiative.

“We will ask the public what’s important to them,” McDonald said, adding public opinion will be weighted with best practices and expert opinions. Participants will be given two weeks to fill out a questionnaire following the consultation.

The city has an ongoing call for sites, which is open until May 20.

Two consultations will be held in June – one at city hall and one at the Library and Archives Canada, because staff are still doing a dual track process – preparing for a standalone facility and a

joint one with Library and Archives Canada.

The board will have what McDonald called the decision package – the partner-

Roney said the past few weeks haven’t been kind to cats. A cat was killed following an attack by another animal last week and on Monday, May 16, another cat died after falling from a high-rise building.

“Those preventable tragedies highlight the need to keep cats indoors where it’s safe,” he said.

Ottawa to host western-themed fundraiser for Fort McMurray Jennifer McIntosh

jennifer.mcintosh@metroland.com

Ottawa is going western in support of Fort McMurray.

Mayor Jim Watson and

Ottawa Senators defenceman Chris Phillips, who grew up in Fort McMurry and has family there, announced a beer and pizza night aimed at raising funds to help rebuild the city

after devastating forest fires caused the Alberta city to be completely evacuated in the largest mass scale evacuation in Canadian history.

The Ottawa4FortMac fundraiser will be held at

the Aberdeen Pavilion, 1000 Exhibition Way, on June 8 from 6:30 to 10:30 p.m.

The event will have a western theme, with live country music, pizza and craft beer.

Watson said that while there is no set fundraising goal, organizers are hoping to raise tens of thousands of dollars for the relief efforts. Tickets for the fundraiser will be available early

next week.

The city isn’t the only one pitching in to help out.

Ottawa Race Weekend director John Halverson announced May 10 that participants will be able to send their race funds to the Red Cross and their Alberta Fires campaign.

The province of Ontario also announced May 11 that it would be contributing $500,000 to the relief efforts in Alberta. Ontario has also provided emergency management personnel to support local firefighting efforts. As of May 11, 60 firefighters, three strike team leaders and 16 incident management and supervisory staff from Ontario are on the ground in Alberta, according to a press release.

Consultations concerning Ottawa police starts in June Meetings to discuss planned new depolyment practises; spots limited for both sessions Michelle Nash Baker michelle.nash@metroland.com

Ottawa residents will get a chance to voice their concerns over best practices for community policing at two public consultations this June.

The Ottawa Police Services Board presented its plan to rejig the way officers are deployed on April 25. According to the police, the changes are part of a strategy called the Service Initiative program, which is designed to improve how the police serves the community.

The consultations will be facilitated sessions, but spaces are limited and it’s recommended that organizations or groups register one participant to act as a delegate. The first session will take place on June 7 at 12 p.m. to 2:30 p.m. in the Fellowship Room, at the Woodvale Pentecostal Church at 205 Greenbank Rd. The second session will take place on June 9 from 6 p.m. to 8:30 p.m. in the Festival Boardroom at City Hall.

The plan had a controversial element that includes reallocating resources like beat cops, community policing functions and district traffic functions to a “front line functional model.�

Acting Supt. Mark Ford, who presented the strategy, said it was about reducing the demand on officers and how the organization can be more efficient co-ordinating front line engagements.

For residents unable to attend, people can provide feedback either by completing an online survey, available by visiting ottawapolice.ca or by sending their comments to serviceinitiative@ottawapolice.ca.

-With files from Jennifer McIntosh

Ottawa resident bilked of $10K in re-emerging scam Erin McCracken

erin.mccracken@metroland.com

A scam in which residents are being threatened with arrest is making the rounds again in Ottawa.

One Ottawa resident was bilked of almost $10,000 in recent weeks in this way, said Const. Marc Soucy, Ottawa police spokesman.

As a result, the Ottawa police organized fraud unit has issued a warning about “an emerging mass marketing scam/extortion” in which fraudsters are telephoning residents and threatening to arrest them and their families.

The callers are actually after personal information, as well as credit card and bank account numbers and pass-

words, and threaten victims with arrest if they don’t share these details.

The callers have impersonated government agencies and lawyers, though there have also been instances in which they don’t provide a name.

Some scammers have said they are calling on behalf of the Canada Revenue Agency and say, “‘If you don’t come

Statement of Cultural Heritage Value 375 King Edward Avenue (Adath Jeshurun Synagogue, now Église Adventiste du Septième Jour) Description of Property – 375 King Edward Avenue The former Adath Jeshurun Synagogue is a red brick, two storey structure with a high basement, a symmetrical facade and a shallow gabled roof behind a decorative parapet. It is located on the east side of King Edward Avenue, to the north of the intersection of King Edward Avenue and Rideau Street.

The Property Sketches referred to in Schedule A forming part of this Notice, are available for viewing during regular business hours at the City’s Client Service Centre, 1st Floor, City Hall, City of Ottawa, 110 Laurier Avenue West.

Statement of Cultural Heritage Value or Interest The former Adath Jeshurun Synagogue has design value as a late example of the Romanesque Revival Style and as an example of early synagogue architecture in Ottawa. The Romanesque Revival style was a popular choice for religious buildings in the 19th century, and was used in other synagogues across Canada, including the oldest surviving synagogue, Congregation Emanuel in Victoria, British Columbia. The heritage attributes of the former Adath Jeshurun Synagogue that are characteristic of the style include its round arched windows, the elaborate round arched entranceway with a fan shaped transom window and brick corbelling and the two tower-like projecting end bays topped with Moorish-inspired decorative metal domes.

NOTICE IS HEREBY GIVEN that application has been made for approval to expropriate the lands described in Schedule A attached hereto.

Any owner of lands in respect of which notice is given who desires an inquiry into whether the taking of such land is fair, sound and reasonably necessary in the achievement of the objectives of the expropriating authority shall so notify the approving authority in writing, (a) in the case of a registered owner, served personally or by registered mail within thirty (30) days after the registered owner is served with the notice, or, when the registered owner is served by publication, within thirty (30) days after the first publication of the notice;

The Adath Jeshurun Synagogue was constructed in 1904 to accommodate the growing Jewish community of Lowertown and was one of the earliest synagogues established in Ottawa. After its closure in 1956, it was converted into the Jewish Community Memorial Chapel and operated as the site of all Jewish funerals until 1997. The building has historical value for its associations with the growth of the Jewish community in Lowertown.

(b) in the case of an owner who is not a registered owner, within thirty (30) days after the first publication of the notice.

The approving authority is: The Council of the City of Ottawa 110 Laurier Ave. W. Ottawa ON K1P 1J1.

Continuing its use as a spiritual centre, the building was purchased by the Église Adventiste du Septième Jour in 1998. Since then, the church has housed Ottawa’s only Francophone Seventh Day Adventist congregation, and served as the centre of the congregation’s community.

The expropriating authority is: City of Ottawa 110 Laurier Ave. W. Ottawa ON K1P 1J1.

The former Adath Jeshurun Synagogue has historical value for its associations with its designer, architect John W.H. Watts, and alterations by Allan Horwood and Cecil Burgess. Soon after arriving in Ottawa from England, Watts was hired by Thomas Seaton Scott, Chief Architect for the Department of Public Works in Ottawa. Watts was soon elected to the Royal Canadian Academy of Arts and was appointed as the curator of the National Gallery in 1882. He served as the curator of the gallery until 1897. At the end of the 19th century, Watts started a career as an architect in private practice and became well known for designing churches and residences for Ottawa’s elite including the Booth Mansion at 252 Metcalfe Street (1909) for J.R. Booth and a house for Andrew Fleck at 500 Wilbrod Street (1901).

Dated at Ottawa this 10th day of May, 2016.

CITY OF OTTAWA Robin Souchen Acting Director, Real Estate Partnerships & Development Office Schedule A Those lands in the City of Ottawa described as follows:

The building has contextual value as one of three remaining historic buildings on this block of King Edward Avenue and as a landmark because of its design value.

All right, title and interest in the following lands:

Strawberry meringue cake easy to make Also known as Brita cake, this Finnish vanilla cake meringue combo appears difficult to make, but it’s not. Don’t worry if it’s not perfect looking, it will taste delicious with juicy fresh strawberries.

Preparation Time: 25 minutes Baking Time: 22 minutes Chilling Time: up to 4 hours Serves: 8 Ingredients

• 3 eggs, at room temperature • 1 cup (250 mL) all-purpose flour • 2 tsp (10 mL) baking powder • 1/4 tsp (1 mL) salt • 1/2 cup (125 mL) butter, at room temperature • 2/3 cup (150 mL) granulated sugar • 1/2 cup (125 mL) milk Meringue layer: • 3/4 cup (175 mL) granulated sugar • 1 cup (250 mL) 35 per cent whipping cream • 1 tsp (5 mL) vanilla • 2-1/2 cups (625 mL) sliced strawberries

Preparation instructions

Draw a 12- x 7-inch (30 x 18 cm) rectangle on parchment paper; turn over and line a baking sheet. Set aside.

Separate eggs, placing yolks in small bowl and whites in medium bowl. In separate small bowl, whisk flour, baking powder and salt. In large bowl, using an electric mixer, beat butter with 2/3 cup (150 mL) of sugar until creamy. Beat in yolks, one at a time, scraping down sides until well blended. Beat in half the flour mixture followed by milk and remaining flour mixture, scraping down sides as needed.

Scrape onto the parchment paper-lined baking sheet and spread to fit the traced rectangle.

Meringue: Using clean beaters and bowl, beat egg whites until frothy. Beat in granulated sugar, 2 tbsp (25 mL) at a time; until stiff glossy peaks form.

Carefully spread over cake batter. Bake in 325°F (160°C) oven for 20 to 22 minutes or until meringue is very pale golden and a skewer inserted through cake comes out clean.

Cool completely on baking sheet on rack. Trim cake to make a rectangle. Cut cake in half crosswise to form two pieces. With large flat metal spatula, carefully transfer half of the cake to flat serving plate, meringue side up.

In medium chilled bowl, using electric mixer, whip cream with vanilla until stiff peaks form.

Spread whipped cream on cake layer. Scatter two cups (500 mL) of the strawberries over top. Top with second cake layer.

Cover and refrigerate up to four hours. Just before serving scatter with remaining strawberries.
