Two pieces by a local artist have been missing for over a month after disappearing from the Atrium Art Gallery in Centrepointe. The artist is asking people to be on the lookout for the two large oil paintings. Margaret Chwialkowska was first informed that the paintings were missing by a friend on May 25 who noticed they were no longer on display. She then went in to inquire about the paintings in person and spoke with the security guard on duty. “He said that he saw the paintings on May 24 but they were gone on May 25,” said Chwialkowska. “I asked him what has he done under the circumstances, he said, ‘Nothing, I don’t know what the gallery is doing.’ I was shocked realizing that there is no protocol or even basic communication between the city gallery and the (Centrepointe) complex security.” The two oil paintings are titled Amber Reflection and Spring Reflection. They are tall and feature woodlands reflecting against a body of water. Spring Reflections is primarily green and blue while Amber Reflection features more autumn colours such as orange and red. When asked about what the gallery is doing in response to the missing paintings the city released a statement. See AFTER, page 3

After a month artist says there’s been little headway made in locating her pieces Continued from page 1
“On May 29, 2017, two artworks from the exhibition in the Atrium gallery at 100 Centrepointe Dr. were officially reported missing,” wrote Sandra Mirabelli from the recreation, cultural and facility services department. “We have worked closely with City of Ottawa corporate security in reviewing the incident and preventing future occurrences. As a result of the incident, security measures at the Atrium gallery have been enhanced. We have been in contact with the artist and the Nepean Fine Arts League to put in place alternate arrangements for the remainder of the exhibition.” Frustration is beginning to settle in with Chwialkowska though as it has been almost a month since the paintings have gone missing and she has received very little information. “It is going to be a month since the crime has been committed and nothing has been done about that. I find it unacceptable” she said.

OSEG announce plans for Grey Cup Festival CHRISTOPHER WHAN christopher.whan@metroland.com
The Ottawa Sports and Entertainment Group announced their plans on June 28 for the upcoming 105th Grey Cup. The group has several days of live music and events leading up to the game, and all of them are Canadian. Mayor Jim Watson and MPP Yasir Naqvi were also on hand for the announcement, which was given to over 1,000 season ticket holders and VIPs. Musical cover acts performed songs by some of the artists that will be at the Grey Cup Festival. The concert series will consist of a host of Canadian acts. Country music acts Jess Moskaluke, The Washboard Union, and J.J. Shiplett will be performing Thursday, Nov. 23 at the arena at TD Place, followed by Sloan, Reuben and the Dark, and Dwayne Gretzky the following day. The day before the big game will have the most activities by far. Headlining the concert series are Canadian rock bands Trooper and April Wine along with over a dozen other events throughout the day. The Nissan Titan Street festival and
family fun zone will have activities for those of all ages, and the Canadian Football Hall of Fame will be on site with memorabilia from the last 105 years of Canadian Football history. Because all teams will be represented at the event and not just the Redblacks, groups from all over the CFL will also be holding events on Saturday. The Calgary Grey Cup Committee and the Spirit of Edmonton will be holding breakfasts for fans. Riderville and the Montreal Huddle will also be there for fans of the Saskatchewan Roughriders and Montreal Alouettes respectively. Also on hand at the festivities at the Shaw Centre will be the Gridiron Gals, a clinic held by coaches and players from the CFL for ladies who want to take part in some of the drills and strategy of football. Needless to say, the governments of Ottawa and Ontario are thrilled to be taking part in this event and Ottawa Centre MPP Yasir Naqvi, clad in his very own Redblacks jersey, was on hand to show his and the Christopher Whan/Metroland Government of Ontario’s support. Mayor Jim Watson speaks to a crowd of over 1000 Redblacks season ticket holders an VIPs at the announceSee LOCAL POLITICIANS, page 7

Residents get answers about new Civic campus MELISSA MURRAY mmurray@metroland.com
The new Civic campus will include towers. At a community consultation on June 20, Ottawa Hospital executive vice-president and chief operating officer Cameron Love told a crowd of about 30 a bit about what it might look like at the Sir John Carling site that’s part of the Central Experimental Farm. David Darwin, who lives in Carlington, where the meeting was held, questioned why the hospital would consider building out instead of up. With new developments with towers planned close to the site, Darwin said it would “complement the area” while also preserving some of the green space on the site. “There’s no question,” Love said in response. “There will be towers.” How high they go, he said mentioning a hypothetical 10 to 14 storeys, will depend on how many beds the new campus needs and the services that are chosen for the new campus. Right now, as part of Phase 1 of the planning for the new facility, what needs to be decided is which programs and services will be offered in the building. In order to do that, the hospital is looking at each of its campuses — Civic, Riverside and General — to see what makes the most sense and putting it there. For example, Love said, it makes sense for the General to take more of the cancer services and care.
Melissa Murray/Metroland
Executive vice-president and chief operating officer of the Ottawa Hospital Cameron Love took questions from River Ward residents on June 20 at a neighbourhood meeting about the hospitals new Civic campus to be located at the Sir John Carling site at the Central Experimental Farm. When Phil Bartlett took a look at the site “For me, this would be more well received breakdown for the health care centre, he no- if parking plans were condensed,” he said. ticed there was about as much land dedicated Parking will be a big issue for the commuto parking — 15 to 20 acres (six to eight hect- nity as the project moves forward, said River ares) for an estimated 3,400 spaces — as for Coun. Riley Brockington after the meeting. the buildings, of about 25 acres (10 hectares). “I think that will be a major issue — how will the Civic accommodate their parking needs and the needs of the whole community,” he said. With the hospital taking over land that is now a parking lot that’s used when there are events at Dow’s Lake, the parking strategy will have to look at how to accommodate visitors to the nearby area as well. The hospital is still working with Public Services and Procurement Canada on the details of the 99-year lease. Love said he hopes to have the lease signed by Christmas of this year. “If the whole process is 1,000 steps, we are in the first five to 10,” Love said during a quick presentation. Love addressed questions about integration with the community, the plans for the Heart Institute, consultations and what happens to the current building. Love said the Heart Institute must be integrated into the new hospital in the future a transition plan needs to be sorted out, 102-1956 Robertson Rd. and but in terms of what’s next for the current hospital, it’s not top of mind. 613.596.6161 “I’ve not thought anything about it,” Love www.triadentdental.com said, adding there have been a lot of sugges-

tions, pointing to the need for more longterm care or acute care for the elderly. In the fall, the hospital will receive a report from an external group detailing an engagement framework. It will advise the hospital on the best way to engage the public, and the hospital plans to use it to plan its engagement strategy. The province requires a certain minimum level of consultation. The hospital is a large urban community development project, Love said. As a result, neighbourhood associations, hospital staff, health care providers, patients and families will need to be part of the development of the new facility. Patients and families will help shape what Love described as a significant part of the new hospital. The plan includes about seven acres (about three hectares) of wellness space. While no concrete plans have been made, as the design of the hospital won’t be unveiled until Stage 3 of planning, Love described one possible option being an outdoor amphitheatre. Getting answers to some of the big questions around the hospital’s relocation was helpful for residents, Brockington said, adding he plans to host this kind of meeting annually. That’s no problem for the hospital. “We’ll be back. We’ll be back a lot. The community has great questions and great ideas,” Love said

“I’m really excited we’re hosting the Grey Cup Festival,” said Naqvi. “I think it’s going to be a great part of an amazing year in our city where all the celebrations are taking place and it’s an amazing opportunity for us to celebrate Canadian Football, to celebrate our team, and, of course, celebrate Canada’s 150th. I’m also very excited that the Government of Ontario is a big partner in this Grey Cup festival.” “This will be, I believe, only the seventh time the Grey Cup has been held in Ottawa,” said Mayor Jim Watson. “We’re not just
going to have an amazing game, we’re going to have an amazing week of Grey Cup activities. Lansdowne has turned out to be a great success. We’re really proud to be hosting.” In a report released June 28, OSEG reported a financial loss despite an increase of attendance at Lansdowne by 41 per cent. Those losses are primarily linked to interest rates on loans for the building of Lansdowne, so this is a temporary issue as they pay down the principal on those loans. The boost of cash from this event could potentially alleviate some of those losses.

Graduates have what it takes
L
ast week was high school graduation time. Mortarboards and gowns, that traditional graduation garb, set the fashion trend for the week as Grade 12 graduates at every high school strode and received a secondary school diploma from a principal, vicepresident or teacher, with beaming smiles all around. These smiles were not only on the stage, but throughout the audience, on the faces of proud teachers, parents, family members and friends of the graduates. These secondary school graduation diplomas represent more than just the successful completion of 14 years of schooling, starting with junior kindergarten and continuing through to Grade 12. Quite simply, these diplomas represent the future. You only had to be at one of these high school graduation ceremonies to appreciate not only the accomplishments of these graduates to date, but also the unprecedented opportunities which await them in the coming years. Whether they are off to university, college or the world of work, these graduates have before them endless possibilities for further personal growth and additional learning. Whether it is in nursing, law, social work, interior decorating, software development, animation, marketing, engineering, construction or any other field of endeavour, these young graduates have been armed with all of the tools necessary to succeed in their chosen pathway.
But more than this, this generation of graduates has developed a sense of social justice and community volunteering that will ensure a future that is not only more compassionate, but more participatory. That’s because the high school education of today goes beyond just the “three R’s” and the curriculum. In high school, youth get to know about taking responsibility for this world of ours, for preserving it and for making it a better place to live, work and play. They get to know how to do this in part thanks to the clubs and extracurricular activities in which they participate in their high school years. But they also know how to do this because, besides their learning, they have developed what it takes to succeed in today’s world — skills like collaboration, digital fluency, critical thinking, resiliency, perseverance and empathy. They are globally aware. They respect and accept others for who they are. This all gives so much hope, not only for where society is headed in the future, but also for seeing how our goals and aspirations as a country of communities are going to be realized. It will all happen because of these young people who this past week strode across a stage to receive a secondary school diploma. They have what it takes to take us to the next level as a country and as a society. We can’t wait for it to happen.
There’s something to be said for team sports
S
o, the kids are out of school — at loose ends — complaining about being bored, while you try to figure out how to keep them away from screens. It’s an age-old dilemma, although there are a lot more screens than there used to be. Myself, I’d get them into team sports. Yes, they went out of fashion some time ago, when lots of people decided that competition was an ugly thing — and indeed it can be, when carried to extremes. That goes for life, not to mention politics, as well as baseball. One of our great national heroes, Pierre Elliott Trudeau, was not a team sports guy. Dubbed a “single-combat warrior” by the great Canadian journalist Richard Gwyn, Trudeau preferred judo and canoeing to baseball, although he was knowl-

innings contests, the 50-50 draw. A new one on me is the Poutine Batter promotion, in which one opposition player is designated the Poutine Batter, and every time he comes to bat, the crowd has a chance at free poutine if he strikes out. Although this has the virtue of being a uniquely Canadian event, it seems a bit petty of us to be wishing ill on a player just because we’re hungry. One day I was there, the Poutine Batter was a member of the Cuban National Team called Juan Torriente. He disappointed the fans five times, although he got to two strikes twice, causing brief excitement. By contrast, on the smallest scale of baseball — the Little League diamonds — I didn’t hear anybody cheering for opposing players to strike out. I also didn’t hear any parents or coaches yelling at the 10-year-
old players or 14-year-old umpires. I just saw kids, boys and girls, bonding, encouraging the other players on their team and saying “good try” even when they failed. That’s how team sport is supposed to work. I’m glad it still does.

Social isolation of seniors is a real concern
A
few years ago, a friend of ours was contemplating a move out of the home she’d lived in for more than 35 years. It was a lot to care for the place. Her children, in their 60s and on the verge of retirement themselves, urged her to look into a seniors’ home. “I can’t move into a seniors’ home,” she said. “I’m too young to hang out with that crowd.” She was 88 at the time. Despite having suffered some hearing and vision loss due to age, she was in good overall health. Every day she would walk for fitness. Having lost her driver’s
as odd. It’s a proven fact that, as people age, their sleep deteriorates, and yet here was an octogenarian frequently saying that she felt fresh after a good night’s sleep. New research out of the Perelman School of Medicine at the University of Pennsylvania may help explain the connection between my friend’s good sleep and her active social life. Researchers there studied the fruit fly Drosophila melanogaster and found that social isolation in at the National Arts Centre and that species contributes to sleep various galas as well, among the reasons she eventually moved into loss.

isolation. In rural areas, a lack of public transport and poor Internet connections leave many older people unable to connect with their communities. And while we often think the answer is installing seniors into care homes, this doesn’t appear to diminish feelings of isolation. More than 40 per cent of seniors living in residential care homes exhibit symptoms of depression on a regular basis, nearly onethird more than the average. I know from experience that, with a busy family life, managing our own work and social schedules can be trying. The seniors amongst us are often easily forgotten. With Canada’s over-65 population now outnumbering children for the first time since Confederation, however, we all have a responsibility to ensure the elders in our lives are respected as valuable contributors to our society.

Notice of Completion Baseline Woodroffe Stormwater Management Pond Class Environmental Assessment Class Environmental Assessment Study Report Available for Review The City of Ottawa has completed a Municipal Class Environmental Assessment (Class EA) Study for the construction of a stormwater management (SWM) pond at the northeast corner of Baseline Road and Woodroffe Avenue. The pond will provide treatment and flow control for runoff from some 435 hectares that currently drain uncontrolled to Pinecrest Creek. The Baseline Woodroffe SWM pond was identified as a priority project in the Pinecrest Creek/ Westboro SWM Retrofit Study (P/W Study), completed in 2011. The P/W Study was completed as a Master Plan under the Municipal Class EA process, identifying a preferred SWM retrofit plan composed of multiple projects. Prior to implementation, individual infrastructure projects recommended in the retrofit plan are required to complete additional Class EA requirements. For the Baseline Woodroffe SWM pond, the process for a “Schedule B” undertaking has been followed in accordance with the Municipal Class EA (2000), as amended 2007 and 2011. A Class EA Study report has been prepared documenting the problem statement, existing conditions, evaluation of pond options and the selection of the preferred solution, public and agency consultation as well as potential construction impacts and mitigation measures. The Report is available for public review at the following locations for a period of 30 calendar days, starting on July 6, 2017: City Hall Client Service Centre 110 Laurier Avenue West, Ottawa ON K1P 1J1 Tel: 613-580-2400 Nepean Client Service Centre 101 Centrepointe Drive, Ottawa, ON K2G 5K7 Tel: 613-580-2940 Or by visiting the City website: ottawa.ca/baselinewoodroffepond Interested persons should provide written comments within 30 calendar days from the date of this Notice to: Darlene Conway, P.

Riverside South students chip in for grassroots refugee sponsorship ERIN MCCRACKEN erin.mccracken@metroland.com
Strangers helping strangers is creating strong connections within Riverside South and as far away as Lebanon. “All the Canadians are sensitive. I know this. And they feel for others,” said Bassam Daya, holding his sleeping daughter, Irénie. “I’m not surprised. They raise their children up in a proper way.” The Nepean resident and his wife, Rama Kasrin, joined members of Riverside South for Refugees, a grassroots group working to bring a Syrian refugee family to Ottawa, at St. Jerome Catholic elementary school in Riverside South on June 22. There, students with the social studies action team, SHOUT, presented the refugee sponsor group with more than $1,700 to help its members realize their goal much sooner. The hope is that the refugees – Hani, his wife, Dima, and their fivemonth-old son, Paul – will arrive in Ottawa in three months and finally be reunited with Hani’s sister, Kasrin. “We knew we were going to raise a lot of money, but we didn’t know we were going to raise that much,” said student Elly Hutt, 11, joined by Annie Doyle, 12, who presented the cheque during a packed school assembly that also drew Gloucester South-Nepean Coun. Michael Qaqish, the city’s special liaison for refugee resettlement. The hardships faced by Hani and Dima in Lebanon touched the girls and their peers. “We try to make a difference in that way. We
need them to try to move to a better place so they can have a better life,” Elly said. “They don’t deserve to live there.” That children wanted to help change the lives of strangers in need did not surprise Daya, Kasrin or the sponsor group. “And how they did it, selling candy grams for 50 cents?” said Riverside South resident Jennifer Vollrath, who is part of the local group that is working with South Gloucester United Church. “It basically goes back to ‘be kind and help others.’” Vollrath and her fellow volunteers have held countless fundraisers in their quest to support a family in need. They also raised $21,000 to help another refugee family that is being sponsored by a Little Italy group. “Every little bit helps,” Vollrath said. “Every little candy gram helps. The full family reunification and the significance – this will help alter their lives, the people they’re helping come to Canada,” She and her team of about 40 people are on a final push to raise the remaining $5,000 of the $23,000 needed for the private sponsorship. “We’re so close,” said fellow member Jan Moleski. “That is the last item that we need to fulfil in order to get a green light to get them over here.” Moleski and her husband Peter Shand, of Riverside South, said they’ve donated to other causes over the years, but this initiative fosters deeper connections. “You have a very concrete way to help,” Shand said. Since Daya and Kasrin connected with River-

She made a huge pot of tabbouleh and that’s how we celebrated them. She spent two days making the tabbouleh. That was the beginning.”

Carleton Heights gets safety advice BY MELISSA MURRAY mmurray@metroland.com
Lock your patio and car doors and remove your garage door opener from your car if you’re leaving it outside overnight. Those were some key pieces of advice community police Const. Sherry Jordan offered to residents of Carleton Heights at a community safety meeting on June 27. During the meeting, residents raised concerns about thefts in the neighbourhood, including a recent incident in which a set of golf clubs was snatched from an open garage. Since the beginning of the year there have been eight break-and-enters in the community, which, Jordan said, is about average for the area. Across the city, prowlers will go through neighbourhoods checking car doors to see if they’re locked, and the same goes for patio doors. The garage door openers can be used to gain entry to not only the garages, but unlocked houses. “They get quite savvy at what they do,” Jordan said, adding when the suspects — often dressed in black — see lights, they duck back into the dark. “So they are difficult to catch.” Then they can be back checking doors and windows just minutes later. A recent spree found some kids were breaking into houses and cars in Barrhaven. It turned out that the perpetrators were talking about their gains at various shelters in the area, prompting others to target the same neighbourhood. The incidents were drug motivated, she said.
“We need to try our best to get the word out that they are not going to get the best bang for their buck by coming here,” Jordan said, adding valuables should be left out of sight. Nancy Worsfold, executive director of Crime Prevention Ottawa, told the dozen residents in attendance that most thefts are crimes of opportunity. While movies show criminals planning for days to break into a home or business, most suspects only consider the theft for about 120 seconds before moving in. “They’re looking for the easi-
est target,” she said. No matter what’s stolen, Jordan encouraged everyone to report the information. She said that allows police to investigate trends and see where they need to deploy resources. “Everything now with the police service is very statsdriven. With traffic concerns, if there’s thefts from vehicles a lot of people are very hesitant to report to police, and our big message is you need to report if you are going to get services to your area,” Jordan said. River Coun. Riley Brockington added that with spring, there’s renewed concern.
“People have come out of hibernation, this is a beautiful neighbourhood. Let’s not be the victims and if you see stuff report it,” he said. But if there is a safety concern that’s most bothersome to residents of Carleton Heights, it’s speeding cars cutting through the neighbourhood. That’s consistent with what Brockington has heard from residents when he’s knocked on
doors in the community. “We have to encourage the community to report hot spots,” he said, adding if streets need enforcement, the concerns need to be called in. But with fewer officers deployed in traffic enforcement because of competing priorities, Brockington pointed to his office budget of $40,000 for traffic calming measures. Those strategies include electronic speed signs, flex posts and more. He also spoke about the city’s push to have a photo radar program to enforce speed limits in school
zones. He estimated the system could be in use in the city in about a year and a half. A new initiative is also going to address some concerns about late night-loitering on the local basketball courts. It was an issue that came up a couple of times about cars parking on the courts that are almost like an extension of Normandy Crescent. Brockington said he has ordered several concrete raised flowerpots that will act as a wall to block cars from parking on the courts.

$3.4 million required to fix flood-damaged paths BY MELISSA MURRAY mmurray@metroland.com
The flood waters have receded, but the damage is already done. Fixing pathways damaged from the flood this spring will cost the National Capital Commission $3.4 million. During the commission’s board meeting on June 29, Marc Corriveau, director, urban lands and transportation, and Gary Lacey, executive director, capital stewardship, gave members an update on the flood that affected 12 capital commission areas in early May. About 20 kilometres of paths were under as much as four to five feet of water. So far, about 17 kilometres have been reopened. Three pathways will remain closed into 2018. That includes a one-kilometre section of the Ottawa River Pathway, behind Parliament Hill, between Portage Bridge and the Rideau Canal Locks, the Lac des Fees Pathway, near the soccer field
in Gatineau Park. “This spring, we not only had record water levels, but record velocity and when you combine (them), it makes a heavy impact on the shores and the waterways of any region,” Lacey said. Photos of the pathways from when the water finally receded show eroded shorelines, downed limbs and sinkholes. Before water even peaked, National Capital Commission staff and contractors went out to minimize damage. They went to the aboriginal centre on Victoria Island to help secure some of their assets and worked to armour the banks at the navy monument, at Richmond Landing beside the Ottawa River. “It has been a very trying time as soon as the water levels started to recede we immediately began the site cleanup,” Lacey said. “We continue to work to get the remaining banks stabilized and the trail open. Unfortunately, the pathway still underwater is behind the parliament

The National Capital Commission will spend $3.4 million fixing pathways damaged from the flood earlier this year. Three of the paths that are still closed will not reopen until 2018. buildings and we know it’s an important commute for people with bicycles and also a popular place for people to bike and walk.” Construction to fix the pathways will begin late this summer or early fall and will include upgrades of some of the electrical infrastructure as well.
Tender documents will be completed in early July. Corriveau said it’s the commission’s intention to rebuild everything to a higher standard. Because of climate change, he said, it was important to reinvest in those higher standards. For example, a portion of the trail behind Parliament
Hill that was reinvigorated remained in tact post flooding. Older sections didn’t fare as well. Some of the reopened pathways received temporary repairs to get them open and the commission has received some of the geotechnical studies required to move forward with
the more permanent repairs. “The damage to our sites … will be a challenge for us going forward, but it’s nothing compared to the people affected with their homes,” said Mark Kristmanson, chief executive officer of the National Capital Commission, during the meeting.

Entertainment came by way of goat during visit to neighbours
E
velyn wasn’t the most popular girl at the Northcote School. She wasn’t unpopular, either. She was just there, minding her own business, doing exactly what Miss Crosby asked of her, and always had her homework done, and her desk drawer in perfect order. Evelyn wasn’t much of a talker, either. So, although we knew her family as neighbours, I knew little about what Evelyn did at home. Did she play with dolls? Did she have a pet cat, or a pet chicken like I did? I knew she worked hard at the farm, an only child with no brothers to help with chores. But, what Evelyn did at home for fun, I didn’t know — until the day I was invited to her farm on a warm Saturday to play. I was thrilled beyond words. Finally, I would find out what my schoolmate did when she wasn’t at school.
MARY COOK Memories lunch out there, which to me was right up there with a trip to the movies on a Saturday night. Imagine, eating your lunch in your very own little playhouse. Then, Evelyn looked up at the summer kitchen roof, and in a voice that sounded as mad as a hatter’s, yelled at the top of her lungs, “Buster, you get off that roof this minute.” There, on the very top of the summer kitchen, was a goat — almost the size of a pony. It just glared down at Evelyn, stomped its front foot, and looked like it defied
When one visited for the first time, a jar of jam or some other little treat went with you Like our farm, there was a long lane off the Northcote Side Road, and Father took me over in the buggy and dropped me off at the gate leading into the barnyard. Mother sent some sticky buns, as was the custom then. When one visited for the first time, a jar of jam or some other little treat went with you. Evelyn was waiting for me at the gate, and she led me right to the kitchen to say hello to her mother and hand over the sticky buns. When we went outside, I was impressed to see that Evelyn had a playhouse, filled with a make-believe stove and real little table and chairs. This little playhouse was right outside the summer kitchen, and Evelyn said she often had her

anyone brave enough to challenge it. How it got on the roof was beyond me. “You heard me, Buster. Get off the roof.” She grabbed a branch on the ground, which looked to me like it was always at hand to deal with the goat, which seemed to have a mind of its own. She swung the branch over her head in the air. “He’s already torn the shingles off one side of the house, and my father said if I couldn’t control him, he was going to sell him to the butcher in Renfrew.” Well, Buster either knew of the threat over his head or he didn’t trust Evelyn with the branch. He made one leap and landed on all fours in front of us. Then, he turned his back on Evelyn, made a
snort and kicked her with his back feet, sending her sprawling — and then the chase was on. The two of them tore around the barnyard like two maniacs in a race for survival. Every time Evelyn got near Buster, he raised his hind legs and defied her to come any closer. It was obvious this wasn’t the first time Buster and Evelyn met horns. Finally, Buster ran toward a back field, and Evelyn very carefully put the branch right back where it was when the fight began, ready for the next challenge with the goat. I asked Evelyn how Buster got onto the roof. She said she had no idea, and neither did anyone else. No one knew how he managed the leap, and she lost count of the times the goat did it. She thought he took a running leap when no one was around, and her father said the goat was too smart for its own good, and if one more shingle was ever seen on the ground, Buster would be taking the trip into Renfrew in the truck. During my short visit, I heard that Evelyn’s pet cat never left the barn since one day Buster kicked it about 10 feet into the air. I asked her if she considered Buster a pet. We were eating cookies in her playhouse. “I did when he was little. But, not anymore. And if he gives me one more kick like that last one, I’ll help Pop load him into the truck myself.” Interested in an electronic version of Mary’s books?

Less than three years later, Woods put his best foot forward and with the help of his wife Jessica Wright and friend Bassam Saeed launched Uptown Sox. Together, the trio hit its stride. Wright works on the designs and website, Woods is hitting the streets to get the product into stores and Saeed’s watching over the accounting. “Now everyone is getting socks from me,” Woods said, adding he’s converted more than a few friends from wearing plain black socks to some vibrant patterns. Woods, who grew up in Bayshore and now lives in Westboro, has been talking about starting his own business since he was a teenager. Uptown Sox now has 22 designs available online after adding about a half dozen this spring and will launch another dozen or so in September. Since the launch, Uptown Sox has made its way into more than 14 stores, including Fancy Sox in the Rideau Centre and District Apparel on Wellington West. Woods is also reaching out to help others by donating pairs to the mission and local sock drives. And with a prime minister who’s known to wear a fun

pair of socks matching the occasion, Woods is hoping Uptown Sox might make its way to Parliament Hill. A special pair for Canada’s 150th has been especially popular as the city celebrates the milestone. Featuring the Peace Tower, some furry creatures and
some hockey-playing silhouettes, the socks have been an instant hit, Woods said. “We’re hoping to grow the business from the socks up,” Woods said, adding eventually he’s hoping to get into other men’s accessories and clothing.

Geography and Exploration Pavilion officially opens MICHELLE NASH BAKER michelle.nash@metroland.com
Visitors to Ottawa and Ottawans alike will have a unique opportunity to engage with the National Capital Commission this summer. The Royal Canadian Geographical Society partnered with the NCC last year to repurpose the space at 50 Sussex Dr. into the Geography and Exploration Pavilion. The organizations officially opened the pavilion on June 28. From June 29 to Sept. 30, the Geographical Society will host two exhibits. The main floor will feature The Plan for Canada’s Capital, 2017 — 2067: A Place for Canadians exhibit. This exhibit includes interactive opportunities to familiarize visitors with the NCC and explain its role in the capital. The exhibit will showcase the NCC’s planning, conservation, and development of the National Capital Region, and will focus on the NCC’s plan for federal lands in the region over the course of the next 50 years. “The National Capital Commission is proud to partner with The Royal Canadian Geographical Society to revive 50 Sussex Dr. as the Geography and Exploration Pavilion during Canada’s sesquicentennial,” said Mark Kristmanson, chief executive officer of the NCC. All visitors will have a chance to provide feedback on the 50-year plan.
The second floor of the pavilion will display the work of Alex Janvier, Thirteen Moons. The work is on loan to the society. “The works of Alex Janvier and the exhibit on the Plan for Canada’s Capital will provide visitors with a unique experience in the picturesque heart of the nation’s capital,” Kristmanson said. PAVILIONS The Geography and Exploration Pavilion is one of 10 Confederation Pavilions marking Canada’s 150th anniversary. According to the NCC, more than 32,000 visitors attended the Confederation Pavilions across the region. Along with the Geography and Exploration Pavilion, the NCC’s Confederation Pavilions are: • The Winter Pavilion at Rideau Hall • The International Pavilion (presented by 10 diplomatic missions) • The Pioneer Pavilion at The Log Farm • The Global Centre for Pluralism Pavilion • The Kabenishinân Minitig (Victoria Island) Pavilion • The Modern Architecture Pavilion at the Strutt House • The Ecology and Urban Agriculture Pavilion at the Moore Farm Estate • The Author’s Pavilion at the Charron House * The Canadiana Pavilion at O’Brien House The pavilions are meant to be a collection of architecturally and historically significant buildings that were transformed by the NCC partnering with other organizations. Formally the Canada and World Pavilion, the

The new Geography and Exploration Pavilion offers visitors a chance to immerse themselves in Ottawa’s geography. One of ten pavilions open in the capital, the Geography and Exploration Pavilion opened on June 28. property, between Rideau River falls and the Ottawa River, has been vacant since 2005 when the exhibition hall was closed. The lease the two partners signed in October 2016 was for five years. “The Geography and Exploration Pavilion that we are opening today will offer all Canadians — and all those interested in Canada — an opportunity to engage with our unparalleled Canadian landscapes,” said John Geiger, chief executive officer of the Royal Canadian Geographical Society. The new centre will include a 210-seat auditorium with multiple screens to serve as a state-of-theart, multi-purpose venue for lectures, film screenings, conferences, and similar events. The aim will be to celebrate the physical and human geography of Canada, with a particular emphasis on the geography of Canada’s Capital Region. The fully-refurbished building will open in April 2018 as the headquarters of the RCGS. As the new headquarters, the centre will also be the public face of the RCGS, a non-profit or-
ganization founded in 1929 that aims to make Canada better known to Canadians and the world. The society publishes Canadian Geographic and Géographica magazines, and its educational program, Canadian Geographic Education, has more than 18,000 educator-members. LEGACY The NCC’s Plan for Canada’s Capital at the Geography and Exploration Pavilion is one of seven legacy projects for Canada’s 150th anniversary. Since January, the NCC created six other major legacy projects: • Rehabilitation of the Rideau Hall forecourt and rededication of the Fountain of Hope • Pindigen Park at LeBreton Flats with Algonquin community partners • The new cycling lanes on Mackenzie Avenue • A new sustainable building at 7 Clarence St. • A new plaza at LeBreton Flats featuring the restored Lilias W.

‘O Canada’ changes on hold again MICHELLE NASH BAKER michelle.nash@metroland.com
Mauril Bélanger’s dream of making Canada’s national anthem’s English version gender neutral is over – for now. It has been more than a year since the late OttawaVanier MP began his fight for his private member’s bill to have the words changed in Canada’s national anthem to be more gender neutral – from “True patriot love in all thy sons command” to “True patriot love in all of us command.” It was approved by a vote in the House of Commons. “Just two words – ‘of us’ – would replace ‘thy sons,’” Belanger said in his spring 2016 newsletter. “These two words would make our national anthem more inclusive and pay tribute to all the women who have helped to shape our society. I believe it is important for our national anthem to finally recognize their contribution.” Bélanger, diagnosed with
amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) in November 2015, died on Aug. 16, 2016. After a year of debate and many proposals for amendments and sub-amendments to the bill, on June 22 the Senate adjourned until September without a final vote on the bill. Bélanger’s successor, Ottawa-Vanier MP Mona Fortier, said she isn’t pleased there was no final vote on the bill. “I find that it’s very disappointing that we are not moving forward with a vote, and that we are using procedural tricks and game playing to not go forward with it,” Fortier said. On June 19, Sen. David Wells proposed a sub-amendment to Sen. Lynn Beyak’s proposed amendment that if the bill should pass, it would not come into effect until after July 1. Wells’ sub-amendment replaced July 1 with Sept. 1. “Colleagues, I will be proposing a sub-amendment to Sen. Beyak’s amendment, but I wanted to make it clear why I was doing that, and that
RE/MAX HALLMARK REALTY LTD., BROKERAGE
was the essence of my speech. I don’t think this bill should pass. One thing we can do, as I said, is delay. I know I can’t delay this forever, nor can I do anything single-handedly in here,” Wells said in the Senate. Fortier said she wishes the bill could just pass, noting the House of Commons supported the bill more than a year ago. “It’s hard, it’s not just because Mauril brought it, he pushed it and did great due diligence, but the fact that he passed away. It makes it hard it’s not going forward,” she said, adding that she thinks this bill would be a great legacy for a man who worked as a parliamentarian for 21 years. The goal for Bélanger had always been to have the anthem reflect the gender neutral changes for July 1, 2017. Fortier, who has many times referred to Bélanger as her mentor, said she supports the bill and the change to make the English version of the anthem gender neutral.

Ward 22 Annual Community BBQ On July 22nd I will be hosting the 3rd Annual Ward 22 Community BBQ. This year the event will take place from 11am-2pm at Diamond Jubilee Park, located on White Alder Avenue in Findlay Creek. This is a free community event and is open to all residents. Come out and enjoy lots of fun activities including bouncy castles, Ray’s reptiles, Brad the Balloon guy and even a petting zoo. We have also invited many city departments to come out and showcase what they do. It is sure to be a fun day for the whole family. I hope to see you there! The Urban Forest Management Plan After broad consultation with the public and city staff, the Environment and Climate Change Committee recently approved a 20 year Urban Forest Management Plan in an effort to manage Ottawa’s trees in a more strategic way. The plan focuses on sustainability of urban forests, increasing public knowledge of the urban forest, expanding community engagement, proactive management and providing extended resources to the urban forest management team. As an example of its recommendations, the plan calls for a review of all tree-related By-laws. Residents can find more information at ottawa.ca. Transecure Awards On June 20th, OC Transpo operators were honoured at the Annual Transecure Awards for going above and beyond their regular duties to keep residents safe. These individuals demonstrate that Transecure really is a community watch program on wheels. As Vice Chair, it was an honour to represent the Transit Commission at this ceremony. Wild Parsnip Spraying Program In June, a number of locations in the Barrhaven area were treated by the City’s Wild Parsnip Spray Program. Additional info about the plant and its risks can be found at ottawa.ca. Residents are asked to familiarize themselves with the plant and report any sightings to 311. Canada Day in Barrhaven

Thank you to all who attended the Mattamy Homes Canada Day in Barrhaven event last Saturday. It was very encouraging to see so many residents choose to celebrate our countries 150th anniversary with fellow Barrhaven residents. Special thanks to all the organizers, performers and fun vendors who made the event something we will all remember for years to come. Grand opening of Ottawa Farmers’ Market near Barrhaven For the past year I have been working with the Ottawa Farmers’ Market Association and OC Transpo to open a Farmers’ Market at the Riverview Park and Ride on Earl Armstrong Road in Riverside South. I was happy to be able to cut the burlap on its opening day. There was a great turn out, making some vendors take trips back to the farm to stock up! A variety of vendors, horse-drawn wagon rides, and a performance by the Ottawa Symphony Orchestra, which was sponsored by the RideauStone Arts Centre, made the day a huge success. I encourage all Barrhaven residents to take a trip over the bridge and visit the market this summer. All vendors are 100% local and sell quality merchandise. It will be open every Sunday from 10am-2pm until mid October.

Through slides and discussion, students were able to see that their counterparts in Africa lived lives with significantly fewer resources and opportunities. This was where the helping others part was highlighted. The group sang a song about everyone being sisters and brothers and how important it is to share with those who have fewer resources. The keeping fit part of the presentation referred to the grannies’ Ride
to Turn the Tide event, a three-day, 260-kilometre fundraising bicycle ride that will take place Sept. 6-8. The focus of the ride is to raise funds and awareness for African grandmothers and the children in their care whose lives have been devastated by the AIDS pandemic over the past many years. As each of the 26 participants in the ride pays for their own expenses, all funds raised go directly to the Grandmothers to Grandmothers campaign. Last year, the group raised more than $65,000. As Bayview students head out on summer vacation, they take along with them the challenge of remembering to help others and to have fun while keeping fit. In the meantime, the grandmothers will be out training and looking forward to a warm welcome from the students when cyclists make a stop at their school around 11 a.m. on Sept. 8.

The Lubuto-Bwira family takes the Oath of Citizenship during a special Canada 150 citizenship ceremony on June 26 at the Canadian Tire Centre, where 150 people became Canadians.
‘It’s a dream to be here’ Canada welcomes 150 new Canadians BY JESSICA CUNHA jessica.cunha@metroland.com
Five days before Canada celebrates its sesquicentennial, 150 new Canadians celebrated their newly acquired citizenship. For the Lubuto-Bwira family, the June 26 ceremony marked the end of 14 years of statelessness. The family fled the Democratic Republic of the Congo, a country in Central Africa, and lived as refugees in Uganda, East Africa, for 11 years. The family landed in Canada on Dec. 8, 2011. “We came to Canada for a better life,” said Sarah Lubuto, who lives in Carlington with her family. “I'm so happy (for) my family because we’ve waited so long.” Her husband, Jacques Bwira, and their children Steven, 6, Naomi, 8, Ivan, 15, and Danielle, 17, recited the Oath of Citizenship, walked across the stage and signed their official documents. Their daughter Pamela, 4, also attended the ceremony. “It means a lot,” said Bwira, who is attending university classes. “There are so many opportunities that we have here. I can only thank the government of Canada for opening the doors for me and for my family.” The ceremony, part of the Canada 150 celebrations, was held at the Canadian Tire Centre on Monday. Former NHLer Ken Dryden, an officer of the Order of Canada and member of the Hockey Hall of Fame, welcomed those in attendance. “To me this isn’t a multicultural society we are creating in Canada. It is a multiculture, something that all of us are building,” he said.
“You are helping to make Canada a more compelling, dynamic, creative and interesting place. In this act of creation, this is what all of us, new and old Canadians, are doing together so that whatever Canada has been in the past we will be so much more in the future.” The future looks brighter for Arnaud Bihizi after 11 years of waiting for his Canadian citizenship to be finalized. “It’s a very big dream,” he said of becoming Canadian. Bihizi left Burundi – a country in East Africa that has seen civil wars, genocide and political turmoil – and first stepped on Canadian soil on June 27, 2006. “Right now it’s a big war, there’s nothing there. There is no future. They even kill you,” he said. “It was very dangerous. My parents were always worried about their kids.” His wife, Amniella Nininahazwe, received her citizenship five years ago. Kelan, 11 months, was born in Canada and the two are expecting another child. “Coming to Canada, it’s a big deal. It’s a very big deal,” said Bihizi. “To be able to have my kids here in Canada, raised in Canada, you don’t worry.” For many of those who took the oath, it was about giving their family more opportunities for the future. “It’s an honour. It’s a synonym of liberty and also responsibility,” said Mourad Khal Iaayoun on becoming Canadian. “For my family, it’s a dream to be here.” He and his wife Leila Kbiri Alaoui, and their children Iman, 12, and Ilias, 14, left the North African country of Morocco for Canada in 2012. The four joined the youngest in the family, twoyear-old Imran, as Canadian citizens on Monday. “It’s my dream just to see my children grow and have a good citizenship and also a great future,” said Khal Iaayoun. “Thank you Canada, thank you for everything.”

Police add extra firepower to airport BY ERIN MCCRACKEN erin.mccracken@metroland.com
Extra firepower is giving more teeth to security at the Ottawa International Airport. Ottawa police officers assigned to the airport are now able to carry carbine rifles in order to boost public safety and better respond to security threats. The addition came into effect on June 22. “It gives another level of a use-of-force option to respond to any events that would threaten the safety of critical infrastructure, such as the Ottawa airport,” said Staff Sgt. Atallah Sadaka, who heads up the Ottawa police airport policing unit. “I think when you’re looking at world events and world climate, it’s important for us to be prepared to respond to any level
of issues that may occur.” Carbine rifles, which require specialized training and have been used by the Ottawa Police Service in high-risk incidents since 2006, are high powered and have greater accuracy at longer distances. “It has an ability to penetrate through high levels of armour,” Sadaka said. The timing of the addition does not coincide with Canada Day festivities, which are expected to draw an estimated 500,000 people to downtown Ottawa. “This stretches beyond that,” he said. “It’s great that we have this piece now in place leading up to and after Canada 150, but it’s an ongoing strategy.” Nor was the addition prompted by specific incidents at the Ottawa airport, though there have been security breach-
es at airports elsewhere. “As recently as a couple of days ago in Michigan there was an incident where an officer at the airport was stabbed by an individual,” Sadaka said. “Here, we’re not responding to any specific piece of intelligence that’s telling us that this is what we need to do. “I think it’s in light of ensuring that the safety and security of the airport is always reviewed and that we have the ability to employ any kind of strategies that allow us to respond to any issues that occur.” There will be times when travellers passing through the Ottawa airport will see officers carrying the large black guns on patrol. “Seeing the carbine rifles, I think to some, may be an eyebrow-raiser,” Sadaka said,
but added that if travellers ask officers about the weapons and learn the reasons for their deployment, they’ll be understanding. “At the end of the day it’s for the security and safety of travellers and our community out here.” The new security measure dovetails with the Ottawa International Airport’s ongoing commitment to ensuring the highest degree of safety and security of all airport users, Mark Laroche, president and chief executive of the Ottawa Airport Authority, said in a statement. “This includes working closely with our law enforcement partners to regularly employ various security measures such as the deployment of the Ottawa Police Service carbines.” Asked whether the extra firepower may be a turnoff or

seem intimidating to arriving or departing passengers, authority spokesperson Krista Kealey said the authority has long been vocal about its “commitment to safety and security.” “I think this is just another element of that, and I think there are a lot of people who would actually feel even more safe,” she told Metroland Media. “The way we’re looking at it is that it’s another element of the tool kit that (the Ottawa Police Service) has available at the airport so that they can ensure

Brooke Henderson hopes to hoist trophy before hometown crowd BY ERIN MCCRACKEN erin.mccracken@metroland.com
Canada’s top female golfer Brooke Henderson will have home-course advantage in more ways than one when the Canadian Pacific Women’s Open tees off at the Ottawa Hunt and Golf Club in the Hunt Club community in August. “I’ve never played an LPGA tour event so close to home before and so to have the fans and my family and my friends come out and watch it is really amazing, and I’m really excited for the opportunity to put on a good show for them,” the 19-year-old Smiths Falls native said June 21 during a media event at the club,
held to promote the Canadian Pacific-sponsored championship. Canadian golfing legend Lorie Kane, who will also compete, took part in the event preview, which included a friendly skills competition. In addition to playing so close to her hometown, Henderson also considers the south Ottawa course her home club. She first walked its links at age of eight during the 2008 National Women’s Open, and last played the course – of which nine holes have been redesigned – a month ago. Henderson acknowledged that competing Aug. 21 to 27 in the major LPGA Tour championship, in which a total purse
of US$2.25 million will be up for grabs, comes with added pressure. But she said she has learned a lot over the last two years about the importance of time management, that “… if I want to perform to the best of my ability I have to say no sometimes. “But I also want to embrace it and spend a lot of time with media and fans and show them how I appreciate their support. But with that being said, if I play well, then everybody’s happy,” said Henderson, who won the prestigious Meijer LPGA Classic in Michigan on June 18 and will next defend her title at the 2017 KPMG Women’s PGA Championship in Chicago June

27 to July 2. The pro golfer will have “a rare” two weeks off in the leadup to the Canadian Women’s Open, which drew 96 of the world’s top 100 women golfers in 2016. This year, 156 golfers will compete for the coveted trophy at the Ottawa club. Henderson plans to spend that downtime practising at ‘the Ottawa Hunt,’ as the private club is known locally. “Winning (the) Canadian Open would be extremely special and probably the most meaningful event for me out on tour,” she said. “Just having so much support come from Canada, I think – I don’t know, its just hard to explain – but it would be extremely special for me to be able to hoist that trophy.” During the preview, Henderson was joined by Kane in a skills competition, during which they chipped balls at targets to raise funds for the Children’s Hospital of Eastern Ontario, the 2017 Canadian Women’s Open’s charity of choice. See HUNT, page 35

YOUNG CHEO STAR
A star of the press conference, flanked by Henderson and Kane, was Kanata’s Zander Zatylny. The CHEO cardiac patient was born with a rare congenital heart defect in which there is just one heart blood vessel, restricting blood flow. “It means so much,” Chrystal Raymond said of her seven-year-old son’s role as the 2017 Women’s Open child ambassador. Zander was born with truncus arteriosis, as well as a hole in his heart that was corrected during his first openheart surgery when he was just 22 days old. A second operation followed when he was one, and stents were inserted at age two to ensure unrestricted blood flow. His last operation was in September. “He’s had eight stents in his heart,” Raymond said. Zander returns to CHEO’s cardiac catheterization lab every six months for check-ups, more often if intervention is needed. CHEO pediatric cardiologist, Dr. Suzie Lee, said funds raised through the national championship tournament and Canadian Pacific’s heart char-
ity campaign will help the hospital upgrade its cardiac catheterization lab and also allow it to serve radiologists. The lab is home to specialized X-ray equipment, and is where catheter wires and tubes can be inserted in patients’ veins to diagnose or repair heart problems. “Our lab is aging and technology advances,” Lee said. “The newer labs available will be able to give us as good imaging or even better imaging with less radiation dose, particularly for our smallest patients.” Kane took the opportunity at the press conference to challenge Ottawa to help raise $2 million through the tournament and the rail company’s charity campaign. At age seven, Zander may not yet realize the full impact of his role as the young face of CHEO’s specialized lab, but his parents know how important it is to share his story. “That’s what we tell Zander,” Raymond said. “We said, ‘Because you’re trying to help raise this money you’re not only helping yourself, you’re helping hundreds of thousands of kids eventually.’” HOME-CLUB ADVANTAGE
Kane is also no stranger to playing the Hunt, having competed there in 1994 and again in 2008 – the only two times the club has hosted the national

sures that come with playing in front of a hometown crush of fans. The weeklong event is expected to draw more than 70,000 spectators. Those aged 17 and under can watch for free. “There’s a lot of demands, but nothing that she can’t handle and I can’t handle,” she said. “As part of CP’s team, I’m hoping I can help take some of the burden that

she’s going to feel being the hometown girl,” said Kane, a member of the Canadian Golf Hall of Fame. “Let’s face it. Smiths Falls isn’t far from here. “They’ll merge here,” she said of Smiths Falls and area residents, “and that’s exciting.” Henderson has looked up to Kane for years, and reached out to her role model for advice when deciding whether to turn pro or attend college. “I really was on the fence as to what was best for her, and only she knows. And I’m glad she chose what she chose,” said Kane, who hails from Prince Edward Island. She also noted the difference at which they each turned pro. Henderson turned pro at 17 and joined the LPGA Tour in 2015. “I told her just to stay real to herself, and (with) her family, she’s got great support,” Kane added. “I wasn’t 17 when I turned pro. I was 29. There’s a big difference in age.” In terms of the pressure Henderson will face playing so close to home, Kane has some advice: “Enjoy it ... Dawn Coe-Jones, who was a dear friend of mine and a Canadian Hall of Famer as well, that we lost (to cancer in 2016). She told me to treat the fans and Canada as the extra club in the bag.” For the tournament schedule and for ticket details, visit cpwomensopen.com.
Summer Safety for Pets Every year during the summer months, the Ottawa Humane Society gets hundreds of complaints relating to animals and hot weather. Here are a few tips to keep your companion animals safe this summer. • Never leave your dog in a hot car. • If your pet spends lots of time outdoors, make sure there is adequate shelter for protection from the sun/heat. Outside kennels need to be well ventilated and situated in shaded areas. Clean, fresh water must be accessible at all times. • On hotter days, monitor your pets activity and be careful to not over exert them. Watch for signs of heat stress, excessive panting, disorientation, staring or anxious expression and weakness. Bring your pet to a cool area, gradually lower your pets temperature by immersing his/her paws in cold water or hosing him/her down and call your veterinarian immediately. • When the heat and humidity rise, be especially careful with short-nosed dogs (pugs, bull-dogs, etc.) and older animals. Exercise your pets in the early morning and/or late evening to avoid the midday heat. • In summer, asphalt can burn your pet’s paws – keep to the sidewalk or grass. • Shaving a hairy pet for the summer may seem like a good idea, but they can actually get a sunburn. Shave your pet at the beginning of the summer before it gets too hot. • In summer, mosquitoes are out in full force. Heartworm prevention medication is recommended and available. See your veterinarian for details. • Flea and tick prevention is important. See your veterinarian for more information. • When you take your dog out for exercise, bring a portable water container for the both of you. • Water should be refreshed/changed often, and the bowl should be kept in a cool shaded area.
