News – Two 11-year-old boys walking home from school received the shock of their young lives as they watched a small single-engine two-seater airplane make an emergency landing in Ledbury Park on Monday afternoon.

Frantz Paul and Benit Murhula saw the aircraft swoop in low over the basketball court at the park, located at the corner of Banff and Ledbury avenues, near Bank Street, just before 2:30 p.m. on Oct. 6. “When I was walking home I saw a plane trying to go on the ground but then it almost hit the basketball court,� Frantz said. “But it pulled up and it passed (over) the play struc-

tures and it went in the forest. “The engine was off so we didn’t hear nothing and when it hit the ground it made a big thump,� Paul said. “The trees were cracking and stuff,� said Murhula. “A lot of people crowded around it,� Paul added.

The boys thought anyone inside the plane likely had been injured – or worse.

News - A working smoke detector alerted a homeowner to smoke and flames spewing out of a bathroom ceiling fan last week.

Ottawa firefighters responded to 425 Thorndale Dr. near Walkley Road, last Saturday, Oct. 4 just after 10 a.m.

The power to the fan was shut off and firefighters checked to ensure the flames had not spread into the attic of the home.

“It did not extend to the attic so

it was contained to the ceiling fan,” said Capt. Marc Messier, Ottawa fire department spokesman.

“I imagine they must have torn drywall around the ceiling fan just to make sure there was no extension.

“So the damage was contained to the bathroom (and there was) a little bit of smoke.”

Water, fire and smoke damage to the structure and contents are estimated at $20,000.

The occupant of the home planned to stay with relatives until her home could be repaired.

Ottawa South News - Thursday, October 9, 2014

‘Magic and miracles’ of cancer coaching receives $2M boost

Erin McCracken erin.mccracken@metroland.com

News – The day Beverley and Brian Davis were told Brian had a brain tumour last year, life as they knew it was forever changed.

Their world turned upside down, the Mooney’s Bay area residents, who have been married 42 years, left the doctor’s office reeling from the devastating news.

Beverley turned to friends, and through Barbara Cook and Dan Greenberg with the Danbe Foundation she learned about the Ottawa Regional Cancer Foundation.

But she didn’t take their advice and reach out until after her husband underwent a nineand-a-half-hour surgery, radiation and chemotherapy.

The turning point came when the oncologist sat them down with the news that Brian had 12 to 15 months left to live.

“And that’s when I thought, ‘Ok, now I need help,’” Beverley told the large crowd that gathered at the Ottawa Regional Cancer Foundation’s Maplesoft Centre for Cancer Survivorship Care on Alta Vista Drive on Monday, Oct. 6.

“I cried for the first hour, that’s all I could do, just let it go,” she said of her first meeting with her cancer coach at the centre.

Since then she has been receiving support from two coaches and has taken caregiving and nutritional courses as part of the foundation’s cancer coaching health and social care service, which launched in November 2011.

“It’s a necessity for the cancer patient and family members because you’re completely overwhelmed. You can’t breathe,” Beverley said. “I thought I’d never find joy again.”

She and her husband are among the 2,000 families that have benefitted from the program.

And thanks to a $2-million gift from the Danbe Foundation, announced Monday, the foundation will be able to expand its service over the next 10 years by hiring additional people and certifying more coaches for its five-member coaching team, said Linda Eagen, the foundation’s president and chief executive officer.

This will allow the organization to help many more of the 30,000 people in eastern Ontario who are receiving treatment for cancer, Eagen said.

As the first service of its kind in Canada, families connect at no charge with health professionals, such as nurses, social workers, kinesiologists, nutritionists, physiotherapists and other wellness practitioners.

“Coaching is simple,” Eagen said. “It’s human care.”

Through the program, families and cancer patients receive help navigating next steps following a cancer diagnosis, as well as support and guidance as part of an individualized plan.

“You have cancer. I imagine

that must be the most terrifying thing to hear,” said Greenberg with the Danbe Foundation.

“What I can imagine is a world without cancer, and I think we have four things in our community that will help get us there one day,” he said adding that Ottawa is home to a great health-care system, as well as cancer champions like the Davises, the cancer foundation and its cancer coaching program.

Supporting the program was a no-brainer since cancer coaching provides “magic and miracles,” Cook said. “It’s about the person. It’s not about the treatment.”

Brian, a former Canadian ambassador to Syria, said he could see an enormous difference in his wife Beverley after she began coming to the Maplesoft Centre.

“Because the stresses of looking after somebody under my circumstances on a daily basis were starting to grind her down, I find. By taking the caregiver course, speaking to the cancer coaches, you could see a level of relief, a weight off her shoulders,” he said. “And it helped me to see her that way, and it helped our family as well, because everybody in the family, of course, is under stress when you learn you have cancer, but the caregiver carries a big weight.”

More than 6,000 new cancer cases are diagnosed in Ottawa each year and as a result there is a need for improved care in the community, said Mayor Jim Watson.

Funding announcement cause for celebration: director Continued from page 3

Many will see eight different health-care professionals in their journey, and spend an average of 15 minutes with each expert during each appointment.

“You don’t have a lot of time – 15 minutes – in, out,” he said.

“And that’s 15 minutes to ask a lot of important lifesaving questions – questions about the specific forms of cancer, different treatment options, clinical trials, what com-

munity services are available, what comes next, are they going to survive, what resources are available,” Watson said.

“For most, that 15 minutes is clearly just not enough time.”

That’s where the cancer coaching program comes in.

With tears in his eyes, John Ouellette, the cancer foundation’s vice-president of philanthropy, said he only wishes the cancer coaching service had been available when his father was diagnosed with terminal cancer many years ago.

“Wouldn’t it have been great

if our family had the support that people have now in our community?” he said.

“We didn’t know where to turn.”

For this reason, the funding announcement is cause for celebration.

“Today’s about turning the page, and not looking back but forward on to what cancer coaching can do for our community,” he said.

Metroland East Special Report

JAIL BREAK

Breaking the chains of recidivism Local community rehabilitative programs and services pick up the slack for federal government

results, excessive use of incarceration has enormous cost implications.”

If mandatory minimums have no affect on recidivism, the federal government must find a way to justify these by evaluating their affects on crime, said Irwin Waller, a professor of criminology at the University of Ottawa.

“We actually know that it doesn’t from studies in other countries, which really means the U.S.,” he said.

Yasir Naqvi, Ontario minister of Community Safety and Correctional Services, said the provincial government’s focus is crime prevention.

“The federal government seems to have a different focus than that,” Naqvi said. “We have raised those concerns with the federal government. We believe that they should offset the cost of measures like mandatory minimum sentencing … because that is going to have a detrimental impact not only on the provinces, but also on the society at large as well.”

Federal Public Safety Minister Steven Blaney did not respond to numerous requests for comment by Metroland East.

Metroland East Special Report

A

staggering number of Ontario convicts – more than half - will go on to reoffend within two years of completing their sentence.

With lack of supports, employment and rehabilitation opportunities, exxperts say many offenders fall through the cracks and are sent back behind bars.

The government is failing on the public safety file, according to Wayne Easter, the Liberal public safety critic.

In Canada the rate of recidivism is estimated at 44 per cent, according to a study prepared for the Solictor General of Canada on federal offenders released between April 1, 1994 to March 31, 1995.

In comparison, the national rate of recidivism across the United States, a country known for its high rate of incarceration, is 43 per cent.

“They have been working on this issue (of recidivism) through the Justice Centre (in the United States) and they are going in the opposite direction from the Harper government because they know the tough-on-crime approach doesn’t work,” Easter said.

With the introduction of mandatory minimums and stiffer sentencing, prisons across Canada are bracing themselves for an influx of inmates.

During the past decade, federal prisons have seen a population increase of 24 per cent, moving from 12,413 inmates in 2003 to 15,400 inmates in 2014.

Meanwhile, the number of prisoners incarcerated in provincial and territorial jails saw a 13.1 per cent jump over the same time period.

But that doesn’t mean crime is up, according to a 2014 report by Statistics Canada.

The traditional crime rate fell by eight per cent, continuing a trend that started in the early 1990s and this year reached its lowest level since 1969, according to the StatCan report.

Prison time has a negative affect on reducing criminal behaviour according to a review of 50 studies between 1958 and 1999 by a team of academics from the University of New Brunswick and the University of Cincinnati. Excessive use of incarceration also has ‘enormous cost implications’ warns the study.

“The principle rationale for mandatory minimums is the belief that length of time in prison acts as a deterrent for future recidivism,” states a 1999 report

the department of criminal justice at the University of Cincinnati.

But a review of 50 studies dating back to 1958 showed that jail time resulted in a slight increase in the rate of criminal reoffence and that there was a tendency for low-risk offenders to be “more negatively affected” by serving time in prison.

“Prisons should not be used, with the expectation of reducing criminal behaviour,” concluded the report’s authors. “On the basis of the present

Expenditures at federal jails have ballooned from $1.58 billion to $2.72 billion from 2002 to 2012 and the cost of incarceration has gone up by 47.8 per cent in that time, according to a 2013 report by Public Safety Canada.

Last year, the federal government asked Correctional Service Canada to cut 10 per cent of its operating budget.

“So they began to look at ways that they could maintain their core operations but still save money,” said Howard Sapers, the federal prisons’ ombudsman. “What that’s translated into is the erosion of some services for offenders and the cancellation of some programs.”

Over the years, the correctional department has eliminated prison farms, reduced access to prison libraries and cut funding to buy library materials.

Overcrowding in Canadian jails means less space for programming, and double bunking is now the norm, Easter said.

REHABILITATIVE PROGRAMS

The pressure placed on the correctional system is also affecting family members of offenders.

An Ottawa support group for women with relatives serving time in

prison is advocating for funding proven rehabilitative programs, changes to Canada’s remand system as well as more diversion programs, such as a mental-health or drug court and restorative justice.

“We want to put practices in place, evidence-based practices in our corrections system that will reduce recidivism, because none of us want to go through it again,” said one of two founding members of Mothers Offering Mutual Support or MOMS. Eventually, most offenders will be released from prison, the Ottawabased mother said, who asked to remain anonymous.

“This person could be your neighbour. How do you want this person to come out? Do you want them coming out having good insight as to what led to their offence, really good insight and for them to have strategies to ensure it’s never going to happen again?” she asked. “(Correctional Service Canada) has a whole list of excellent rehabilitative programs, but their funding has been cut and some of the programs too have been kind of blended together as a one-size-fits-all program.”

Meanwhile, the rate at which offenders are granted parole continues to set new historic lows and a greater percentage of offenders are spending more of their sentences behind bars in increasingly volatile and hardening conditions of confinement.

The programming that does exist often faces precarious funding situations and dwindling resources.

If prison programs are cut, that moves some of the burden to community-based programming, though dollars are stretched just as thin there.

Impending federal cuts to Circles of Support and Accountability, a community based program that helps high-risk sex offenders reintegrate after prison is “nonsensical,” said Randall Garrison, the federal public safety critic for the New Democratic Party.

“That is probably the most single most effective program in probably the whole prison system.”

Public Safety Canada acknowledges the program’s success, but in the House of Commons, Minister Steven Blaney has said the Circles program is not in the ministry’s mandate, said Garrison, who doesn’t buy this, and has told Blaney, “‘Your mandate is not punishment, it’s corrections. It’s called corrections. It’s called rehabilitation.’”

“

“It’s very disturbing to realize that less than four per cent of the Correctional Service’s overall budget is spent on correctional programs.”

What they said “There needs to be a national mental-health strategy ...

Prison is the wrong place to deal with these types of things.”

WAYNE EASTER, LIBERAL PUBLIC SAFETY CRITIC

Easter also points to evidence that shows rehabilitation programs have a positive impact on an individual’s ability to rebuild their life.

But the supports need to be there.

“There needs to be a national mental-health strategy,” he said. “Sixty per cent of the country’s inmates have mental-health issues and 70 per cent have addictions issues. Prison is the wrong place to deal with these types of things.

Far better than (going) cold turkey is support programs; there’s a chance of making it then. Beyond that, simply making it a condition of parole means that when someone falls off the wagon it’s a violation of their sentence. What works best isn’t punishment, but maybe access to a 30-day facility.”

One Ottawa halfway house for federal offenders looks to blend treatment and reintegration, and is designed to help treat the root causes of substance abuse and teach offenders new coping skills.

“Guys who come to Decision House don’t go back to jail,” said Louis Berubé, executive director of Maison Decision House, which has 14 beds that are always in demand.

Housing and employment help are also available to offenders, many of whom have been in and out of the system.

The organization’s annual budget is a little more than $500,000 – a lot less than the cost of keeping all “his guys” in jail, Berubé said.

John Howard Society of Ottawa staff visit the halfway house to offer employment skills training and provide leads on jobs.

The organization deals with clients who have complex needs, but the key areas of concentration need to be safe,

“(Offenders) need a safe place to ... develop community supports, where they can have mental health assessment, can develop a treatment plan.”

“(The government’s) mandate is not punishment, it’s corrections. It’s called corrections. It’s called rehabilitation.”

affordable housing and employment.

The society has a business stream that trains offenders how to do asbestos abatement work and then helps place them in jobs, said Don Waddell, executive director.

One offender who took advantage of the program, who asked to remain anonymous, said after he took the course, he realized afterwards he wouldn’t be able to join the worker’s union. Instead, he was paid less for the same work, and given worse tasks.

The offender said he and his coworkers were treated like secondclass citizens.

“I’m treated differently,’ I’m looked at differently,” he said. “We’re given the dirtier jobs and frowned upon. No matter what inroads I take, I’m always seen as a criminal.”

Though work is being done in the community to curb recidivism, there continues to be a push for change within jails.

The Ontario Public Service Employees Union Corrections Division published a paper in April 2014 titled New Directions: A blueprint for reforming the province of Ontario’s prison system to protect the public, reduce costs and rehabilitate inmates.

The report provides a variety of short-term and long-term fixes to reform the corrections system.

It suggests building temporary housing structures within existing facilities in order to renovate space to expand and add specialized units for severally physically and mentally ill inmates.

“We have an acute crisis with acute mental-health issues,” said Garrison, noting that between 40 and 80 per cent of people admitted to prisons have a mental illness or an addiction.

“In terms of acute problems, we don’t have adequate facilities.”

Though the federal government

says Canada’s prison population is not increasing as projected, Garrison said it is still growing by about 1,000 inmates per year.

“So you still have to provide the physical facilities for that and so a lot of resources are going to that and we don’t have the increased programming money to keep up with that,” he said.

“And so wait lists for treatment are going to get longer and therefore we’re going to get more people who are released who still have mentalillness problems, addiction problems (and) … who are more likely to reoffend because they haven’t had these basic underlying social causes of crime dealt with.”

There are programs in place, often run by non-for-profit organizations, which help fill the gap in services for repeat offenders.

Despite a lack of funding, some of the people they have helped have been able to get a fresh start or successfully begin reintegration in society.

Dan Parlow is one of those people who is breaking the cycle of recidivism, after being in and out of jail since he was convicted of armed robbery when he was 16.

Now, at 49, he’s been out of jail for the longest stretch since that first conviction, and says he knew he had to stay clean after he was paroled in July 2013, otherwise he’d end up back behind bars.

Enter the LifeHouse Residential program, a five-month, substanceabuse residential program run by the Ottawa Mission. Parlow completed the program, then entered secondstage housing and is now moving to an apartment in Blackburn Hamlet. He also started a degree in criminology at Carleton University. He was able to attend school thanks to financial support from the Mission’s donors.

At the close of the first semester,

Parlow had straight As and was hired to research Gladue reports for a consultant firm called IndinGENIUS. The reports are used in the Gladue court system, a special court for Aboriginal offenders – who are extremely overrepresented in the Canadian corrections system, according to statistics from Correctional Services Canada.

It’s a job he says he relishes because he believes it’s particularly important for aboriginals who are involved in the criminal justice system to have the supports they need.

DIVERSION PROGRAMS

There is a glimmer of hope for a fresh start if an offender can enter a diversion program, such as the precharge diversion program run by the Salvation Army, which works with first-time offenders.

The typical offence is theft under $5,000. Clients are directed to the program while they are waiting for their first court appearance, and are often referred by Ottawa police.

“Our office is in the court house and I typically see 30 to 50 clients per month,” said caseworker Sheena Lalonde.

When assessing a referral, Lalonde said she often looks at the whole picture.

“A single mom with two kids on Ontario Works is a totally different case than say, a teen stealing a stereo,” Lalonde said, adding she may assign the mother to community service hours at the food bank, so she can serve her sentence and connect with the organization for resources to prevent repeat offending.

Lalonde said she looks for the root cause of an offender’s crime.

“If someone is stealing to pay for a gambling addiction, for example, it’s

levels that provide public safety and hopefully can save taxpayers money in the long run.””

important to treat the original issue,” she said. “Scrubbing toilets isn’t really going to help them.”

Lalonde said just as much time is spent on connecting clients with resources like Ontario Works or the Low Income Energy Assistance program to help pay utility costs.

The Intermittent Community Work Program offered by the Salvation Army is similar to pre-charge diversion, but instead deals with clients who have already been sentenced. It helps them remain in the community and do service rather than lose their jobs by going to prison.

The program receives some funding from the Ministry of Community Safety and Correctional Services.

Most clients are up on fraud or minor theft charges, and sentences vary, from two weeks to a year of weekends.

“It’s expensive to keep people in jail and this way people get to keep their jobs,” said program head April Rutherford, who deals with about 30 clients each month.

Offenders often work at the Salvation Army thrift store and the Shepherds of Good Hope, a charity that helps the poor and homeless in Ottawa.

Programs such as pre-charge diversion and intermittent community work would have been a welcome solution for Parlow when he first came into contact with the law.

Though he says he is now turning his life around, he can’t help but wonder what would have happened if he hadn’t entered prison, which he refers to as a “University of Crime,” at a young age.

“The system can be very harsh,” Parlow said. “Sometimes it can be a tough cycle to break on your own.”

OPINION EDITORIAL

More jails not the answer

B

usiness is booming in Ontario jails, but it’s the kind of expansion nobody wants.

This week, we published the final instalment of our four-part series about recidivism – when previously convicted criminals reoffend - in Ontario and the state of our correctional system.

The numbers tell a disturbing tale. We discovered an odd statistical trend: despite the fact that Canada’s crime rate has been steadily declining over the past decade – this year we’re at a level not seen since 1969 – the number of federally incarcerated offenders hit a record high in 2013. Overcrowding is the new reality in Canadian prisons, with double-bunking prisoners required in 20 per cent of all federal prison cells. Also on the upswing is the rising cost of Canada’s prison system: the annual price per offender is $200,000 for females and $117,000 for males in federal penitentiaries.

Meanwhile, the cost of community supervision of offenders hovers around $35,000 per year. Critics of the federal government say we are following the failed example of the United States that started

during the 1980s, with a massive push for prison construction and tougher sentences.

Three decades later, our southern neighbours, a country with 700 of every 100,000 people incarcerated, are reconsidering their strategy and are now starting to spend more tax dollars on rehabilitation and support programs instead of prison construction.

We need to follow their example.

With so many critics – both academic and political – calling into question the federal government’s tough-on-crime approach, with the introduction of mandatory minimums and stiffer sentences, what is the government’s rationale for its push for prison construction?

During the past two months we repeatedly called and emailed the office of Steven Blaney, the federal minister for Public Safety, with no response.

If the Conservatives insist on pushing forward with an irrational correctional strategy, one that will eventually cost us dearly financially, perhaps the only convincing argument must be delivered at the ballot box.

he national stereotype is that all Canadians are cottagers and they’re all heading up there this weekend to close up, looking forward to it like crazy.

Like all stereotypes, this one is not exactly accurate. Lots of us are not cottagers and lots of those noncottagers are not unhappy about it.

They are happy in cities, where it is warm and dry and they don’t have to do a lot of lugging of canned goods, empty bottles, pillowcases and broken badminton racquets.

And of those who are, in fact, cottagers, not all of them fit the stereotype either. True, some of them relish every minute of the experience, cold or hot, dry or wet, crowded or solitary. They like the hard work,

They take this wariness to the Weather Network, early, checking the monthly forecast, then the 14-day forecast, then the weekly, hoping for numbers in the double digits but fearing the single. Somewhere in the back of their minds might be the perverse thought that a snowstorm or freezing rain in the forecast might enable the trip to be cancelled.

Then the weekend could be spent in urban warmth and the cottage would somehow close itself.

Public Meetings on Boundary Revisions and Elementary Alternative Program Boundary Expansion The public is invited to attend one of four joint meetings to be held across the District to seek input on minor attendance boundary revisions and the expansion of the Elementary Alternative Program boundaries.

Minor Attendance Boundary Revisions In an effort to ensure school boundaries are consistent with new development areas, improve access to programming, provide better utilization of existing instructional space and address inconsistencies in neighbourhood alignments, staff is proposing a number of minor boundary adjustments to provide for effective accommodation of students in different parts of the District.

Areas/Programs/Boundaries potentially impacted include the following: E Mer Bleue Expansion area (Orleans) E Cardinal Creek New development area (Orleans) E Central Park MFI 4-8 boundary revision E Valley Stream Secondary 9-12 boundary revision E West Carleton MFI 4-8 boundary revision E Riverside South New development areas (south of Armstrong Rd. and east of Limebank Rd.) E J.H. Putman/Broadview 7-8 EFI boundary revision (Carlingwood area only) Detailed information regarding these proposed revisions can be found at: http://goo.gl/8TcJvB NEVIL HUNT/METROLAND

Elementary Alternative Program Boundary Expansion Following a market demand survey in 2013, staff was directed to consult with the public regarding a plan to expand the elementary alternative program boundary, commencing in September 2015. The expansion would include areas not currently served by the program and include all suburban areas and rural areas outside of the Greenbelt.

Potential expansion areas include the following: E West – Kanata, Stittsville, Richmond, Munster and all rural west communities E South – Barrhaven, south Nepean, Riverside South, Manotick, & all rural south communities E East – Orleans, Blackburn Hamlet & all rural east communities

The nuanced feminist

L

ast month British actor Emma Watson delivered a profound speech to the United Nations as part of the HeforShe campaign.

In it she pushed for all – men and women, alike – to do more to promote and practice gender equality. It was moving and tearCapital Muse inducing, and best of all, it was a call to action that touched people on a number of levels. The video went viral on social media.

What’s disturbing about people critiquing and defending on all sides is that it gives the impression that feminism is single-faceted. The threat to Watson could only be seen as offensive if one believes nude pictures are anti-feminist. The criticism of Lagerfeld suggests that old, white men who sell dresses can’t be feminists unless they embrace every Billings Bridge Shopping Centre aspect of the cause.

All of it has annoyed me on a very 2277 Riverside Dr personal level.

economically feasible nor desirable. Today, I believe the opposite, that universally accessible and subsidized childcare is the only way to give mothers a real choice to participate in the paid workforce or not.

On abortion, my Christian values and my experience as a mother who has borne three children clash with the apparently feminist ideal – that carte blanche support for abortion is a foregone conclusion.

“There are many different ways that people practice feminism,” artist and feminist Kim Katrin Milan told CBC Radio’s The Current in early October.

She then went onto slam Lagerfeld’s faux feminist protest.

Essentially, said Milan, It’s not okay for Lagerfeld promote feminism because, in Milan’s opinion, he represents an industry run by men that tells women how to present their bodies to the world.

Okay, but that just makes it impossible for Lagerfeld to be a feminist. And maybe it makes it impossible for anyone wearing Chanel to be a real feminist. And yet, aren’t we trying to get these old white guys and young girls into the cause?

Canadian feminist Judy Rebick, who was

quoted on the same episode of The Current kind of affirmed the latter point. “I’ve spent last 20 years trying to explain that feminism means you support equality for women and it had a bad rap for so many years.” By making feminism part of haute couture, Rubick added, Lagerfeld “makes it cool” and therefore okay for college girls or any man or woman reading a fashion magazine to see that feminism is a mainstream idea rather than some kind of radical fringe movement.

Milan later noted in the same interview that “feminism is about women being able to access all those things we’ve worked our entire lives for.”

That’s true, so maybe it would be good for feminist activists like Milan to give the rest of us a chance to define what it is that we are working for, what gender equality actually looks like, and appreciate our differences of opinion.

The hardest part about an ideology is living up to its ideal. If you want people to be feminists, don’t make it impossible to be a good one.

If we really want to push ahead on gender equality, it’s time to make room for the nuanced feminist.

Pilot lands near first base of ball diamond, skids into trees Continued from page 1

Fire and police officials have since confirmed the pilot and passenger of the plane walked away uninjured.

“It made me feel scared because I thought that the person … injured himself badly,” Frantz said, adding that he has never before seen anything like it.

“I felt bad for the guy because I thought he was like dead,” Murhala added.

The quick-thinking boys raced to the nearby Banff Avenue Community House and reported the emergency to a grownup.

Transportation Safety Board officials say it’s still too early to determine if they will launch a full investigation into the emergency landing.

Ottawa police and firefighters said initial reports indicate the pilot was experiencing engine trouble on the way to the Ottawa Macdonald-Cartier International Airport.

Civil air navigation service, Nav Can, initially alerted Ottawa police to say a plane had left their radar for a few seconds “and this was the reason,” said Const. Chuck Benoit, Ottawa police spokesman, adding he did not know where the plane was

Eight Ottawa fire trucks responded to multiple 911 calls.

“We got reports that (the pilot) was experiencing some engine troubles. He was lined up to land at the airport but didn’t make it or knew he

wouldn’t make it so he decided to land it safely in this park,” said Capt.

and chainsaw operator were brought in around 5:30 p.m. to clear the area of brush before the plane could be tugged out.

The emergency landing was applauded by Ottawa fire Capt. Roy Robinson, incident commander at

the scene.

The male pilot did an “excellent job” finding a flat area for his aircraft to land, he said. “He came just over the building, landed on the grass and skidded into the trees.

“From what I could see it looked like he just cleared the (community pavilion) building nicely, landed on the grass right around first base,” he said, adding tire marks can be seen in the outfield of the baseball diamond at the park.

“There was a little fuel spill so we laid down foam just as a precaution,” Robinson said.

Local resident Paula Oakley watched the plane circle over the area, but thought nothing of it until she heard sirens race down her street.

“Five minutes later there was sirens and I was like, ‘Oh my God, don’t tell me the school is locked down again,’ and then (the police) came down here,” she said.

Her community is fortunate no one in the plane or on the ground was injured in the park where children play and people walk their dogs, she said.

“I was terrified,” Oakley said.

“Thank God it was only a little plane.”

Officer, suspect suffer minor injuries during struggle Erin McCracken erin.mccracken@metroland.com

News - An Ottawa patrol officer and a robbery suspect suffered minor injuries last week after police say the suspect, who was believed to be armed and dangerous, resisted arrest.

Officers were not taking any chances while attempting to handcuff the man Upon closer inspection, police determined the handgun was in fact a BB gun.

“A lot of those things look absolutely (real). It’s hard to tell the difference between that and actual firearms,” said Staff Sgt. Michael Haarbosch, head of the Ottawa police robbery unit. “Some of them, they’re made to look like an actual pistol. Until you get your hands on it and actually have a closeup inspection of it, sometimes it’s hard to tell.”

A struggle broke out after two patrol officers were called to investigate an alleged drugstore robbery in the 2500block of Bank Street on Oct. 2 at 2:55 a.m.

FILE

An Ottawa patrol officer suffered minor injuries as he and his partner attempted to handcuff a robbery suspect, who was also injured, in the 2500-block of Bank Street on Oct. 2.

Investigators say the suspect, who was wearing sunglasses as well as a bandana over much of his face, brandished what appeared to be a handgun and produced a note demanding prescription drugs.

He fled with an undisclosed quantity of medication. Police declined to reveal the quantity or types of drugs taken.

Responding officers spotted their suspect running across

Albion Road and nabbed him at the back of a Bank Street car dealership.

That’s when police say the suspect resisted arrest. He was taken to hospital for treatment of undisclosed injuries. The injured officer was treated at the scene by paramedics.

A 29-year-old Ottawa man is charged with wearing a disguise, robbery with an offensive weapon, possession of a

weapon to commit an offence, resisting arrest, assault with intent to resist arrest, using an imitation firearm to commit an offence, two counts of breach of recognizance and two counts of possession of a scheduled substance.

ROBBERY SPREE

Police have investigated 11 pharmacy robberies so far this

year, the same number as this time in 2013.

The number this year was actually down until Sept. 25 when police began to contend with six cases in which pharmacies were targeted.

On Monday, police announced they had made an arrest in connection with four retail robberies in the recent crime spree.

In the first incident, a drug store in the 200-block of Rideau Street was robbed of prescription drugs on Sept. 25 at 10:20 a.m.

Police say the same suspect then hit a drug store in the 1500-block of Alta Vista Drive on Sept. 29 around 8:40 p.m. and fled with prescription medication.

The next day police allege the same individual went back to Rideau Street, this time to the 500 block, and robbed a pharmacy of prescription drugs around 3:15 p.m.

He struck again on Oct. 4 at 10:10 a.m., though this time an adult store in the 400-block of Rideau Street fell victim.

Police say the suspect drew a knife, demanded cash, removed the cash register and fled.

Responding officers recovered the register at a nearby building, and arrested two people at that address, including a 26-year-old man and a 30-year-old man, both of Ottawa.

The younger suspect is facing four robbery counts, three counts of wearing a disguise, possession of a weapon, possession of property obtained by crime and breach of recognizance.

The 30-year-old faces charges of accessory after the fact, possession of property obtained by crime, two counts of possession of a scheduled substance and two counts of breach of probation.

Both men were scheduled to appear in court on Oct. 6.

Anyone with information on these pharmacy robberies is asked to contact the Ottawa police robbery unit at 613236-1222, ext. 5116, or Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-8477.

Ottawa airport reopens runway after $30M reconstruction Erin McCracken erin.mccracken@metroland.com

AIRPORT AUTHORITY

Workers reconstruct the largest of three runways at the Ottawa Macdonald-Cartier International Airport. The $30-million project began May 20 and was completed by Sept. 30. ing the airport since 1997.

Since May, workers with general contractor R.W. Tomlinson, primary sub-contractor Black & McDonald and main consultant WSP Canada have been working 16-hour days, six days a week to ensure the more

News - Air traffic has noticeably changed course over Ottawa with last week’s opening of the Ottawa Macdonald-Cartier International Airport’s newly reconstructed runway – the third and final landing strip to be overhauled as part of a multimillion project.

After years of planning, the $30-million reconstruction, funded by airport improvement fees, began on May 20.

Meeting the deadline was essential to minimize the impact to neighbourhoods under the flight path.

More air traffic was directed over communities located east and west of the facility while the longest runway was out of commission, “which meant that all of the neigbourhoods east and west of the airport had all of the noise, whereas it’s normally spread out over two runways,” said Krista Kealey, spokeswoman for the Ottawa International Airport Authority, which has been managing and operat-

than 3,000 metre-long runway would be completed by the Sept. 30 deadline.

They went through about 85,000 tonnes of asphalt and almost 38,000 litres of paint.

“There were hundreds (of workers) and on the busiest

days there were 200 people on site at any given time,” said Kealey. “It’s a big runway.”

The existing runway was completely reconstructed as well as re-contoured to ensure proper drainage. Lighting systems along the strip were also

replaced.

The last time the airport’s runways were resurfaced was during the 1980s.

A 300-meter-long runway end safety area was also installed at the end of the strip “in case an aircraft overshoots the runway or lands long or needs accelerating,” Kealey said.

The special additions ensure the Ottawa airport meets international standards for runway safety set out by the International Civil Aviation Organization, the United States Federal Aviation Authority, as well in keeping with Transport Canada guidelines.

“We’ve done it with safety in mind for our passengers, our aircraft and crew. We’ve done it because it’s the right thing to do,” Kealey said. “We’d rather lead the way in terms of safety.

It’s our absolute first priority.

And so we’re there.”

The safety area was dug up, and loose fill was added and then seeded.

“So it’s grass, but if a plane were to go into it, the way that it’s sloped … would allow it to

come to a stop and there’d be nothing there to do any damage to it, so it would just sort of sink into it,” she explained.

The reconstruction is the third and final phase of an overhaul that began in 2010 with an overhaul of the 04/22 north field runway, a 1,000-metre-long strip used for general aviation, as well as flight schools and flying clubs, which use small aircraft such as Cessnas.

Then, in 2012, the airport’s 07/25 east-west runway was overhauled and runway end safety areas were installed at a cost of about $15 million.

“And then we went to the added step of grooving it (in 2013), which means you make cuts across the runway, and that’s to improve drainage again,” Kealey said. “And we’re the only tier-one airport in Canada that has a grooved runway.

The only other one is a small airport in (Canada’s) north.”

Next steps for the airport authority include grooving the airport’s longest runway next summer after the asphalt has cured.

Last week, I had the pleasure of joining the Minister of Children and Youth Services, Tracy McCharles to announce that the construction of a new â&#x20AC;&#x153;trades training centreâ&#x20AC;? at William E. Hay Youth Centre is underway.

Youth at William E. Hay will now have access to a new training facility that will help them gain employable skills in the trades.

The Ontario Ministry of Children and Youth Services is investing $2.3 million to support the facilityâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s construction. Once complete, the 3500 square foot trades training centre will offer employable skills training in framing and electrical, as well as, general, automotive, greenhouse and metal work skills.

The trade centre is a key part of the governmentâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s overall plan to enhance trades training as part of educational skills available to youth in secure custody and detention. The facility will support these youth as they develop the skills needed to achieve success and return to their communities and make a positive contribution.

Sign vandalism wonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t slow campaign Jennifer McIntosh jennifer.mcintosh@metroland.com

News - Council candidate for Gloucester-South Nepean, Michael Qaqish, said sign vandalism in Barrhaven wonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t slow down his election campaign.

Volunteers discovered some torched signs while they were out in Stonebridge on Riverstone Drive on Sept. 29.

Qaqish said he has also found some bent and damaged signs in Riverside South and Findlay Creek.

Heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s made a police report and emailed Chief Charles Bordeleau. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I went to the Greenbank Road police station to make the report and sent a note to the chief,â&#x20AC;? he said.

Qaqish called election sign vandalism â&#x20AC;&#x153;shamefulâ&#x20AC;? and said he feels like his signs have been targeted.

But a spokesperson for the Ottawaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s police department said election sign vandalism is relatively common.

Lisa Macleod, MPP for Nepean-Carleton, had 60 of her signs in Barrhaven slashed and damaged during the last provincial

election campaign.

Her neighbouring MPP, Bob Chiarelli, also had some signs vandalized during the same campaign. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Our sign crews have been out every morning to repair signs (sliced, knocked over or pulled down),â&#x20AC;? Chiarelli said in a May statement. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We did notice an increase on Friday night (May 23), where signs from all four parties were destroyedâ&#x20AC;Ś our crews repaired over 50 signs on Saturday (May 24) alone.â&#x20AC;?

Police charged two men in relation to torching signs on Southmore Drive and McCarthy Road on May 22.

The pair lit several campaign signs on ďŹ re in the early morning hours of May 22 and were seen ďŹ&#x201A;eeing the scene by a witness. Police said the pair werenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t targeting a particular party and it appeared to be a random act.

Jason Kelly, another candidate in Gloucester-South Nepean, said heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s had some of his signs damaged as well, but doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t see it as politically motivated. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We had to ďŹ x some that were knocked over near the

News - Mayor Jim Watson committed to prioritize the completion of the Confederation light rail transit line and the start of the second stage of the project if elected in the upcoming municipal election.

He made the announcement on Sept. 28 at his campaign office in Chinatown.

Watson said the city’s transportation plan should be the focal point of the Oct.27 election.

Phase two of the light rail transit plan would stretch west past Tunney’s Pasture to Lincoln Fields, then split to continue south to Baseline in one direction, and Bayshore to the west.

Southbound transit includes adding stops at Gladstone, Walkley, South Keys, Leitrim and Bowesville.

Eastbound would travel to Place d’Orléans in a four station extension.

AIRPORT

Watson discussed the possibility of an airport link, but said discussions would have to continue. He noted that Vancouver was able to afford their airport link because of federal funding surround the Olympic Games. He said the city of Ottawa is still studying it – but would need to get funds from somewhere else for the project to be built.

“One of the things that they’re looking at is every second or third train could be a spur line to the airport, but we want the airport to come to the table with some dollars as well,” he said. The environmental assessment process has started on an airport spur line and results are expected back next year.

The transit plan has bus rapid transit to Kanata, but no light rail transit west of Bayshore. The current rapid transit lane – from Bayshore to Moodie – is already being built.

Watson said over half of the light rail transit funding would go to the west expansion, with only another four stops added to get the light rail transit to Orléans. Orléans also has the highest OC Transpo ridership in the city. The plan leaves Kanata as one of the major parts of the city without light rail.

“You have to go to Bayshore before you get to Kanata, because you can’t just jump and go and leave a big gap,” Watson said. “We’re cre-

ating a (bus rapid transit) between Bayshore and Moodie. When you go out in that section, it’s just a logjam… we have to continue to push westward. You have to connect at Bayshore first. So we’re going in the right direction.”

Watson also said that restarting the stage two plan would mean council will need to rewrite the transportation master plan, and go through the consultation process again. It would be costly for the city in the long run to restudy the plan as work on phase two has already been done through this phase of council, Watson said.

“Rewriting the transportation master plan from scratch would effectively delay better transit for residents in the east, west and south for at least 10 years, as these complex citywide projects take a long time to plan, design and procure,” he said.

Watson wouldn’t comment if one part of the system – east, west or south – would be prioritized. He said the final studies would have to come in before he could comment.

Hunt Club Park Community Association

News - The Hunt Club Park Community Association plans to host an all-candidates’ debate for the six candidates in the race for city councillor in Gloucester-Southgate next week.

The debate will be held on Wednesday, Oct. 15, starting at 6:30 p.m. at Robert Bateman Public School, located at 1250 Blohm Dr. The debate will be moderated by Rosemary Thompson, National Arts Centre director of communications and public affairs and former national news reporter Rosemary Thompson.

BRIDGING COMMUNITIES Ward 22 Update

Steve Desroches Deputy Mayor Councillor, Gloucester-South Nepean ‘Vimy Memorial Bridge’ Name Approved by Council I am pleased that City Council has approved the commemorative naming proposal to rename the Strandherd-Armstrong Bridge the “Vimy Memorial Bridge”.

The Royal Canadian Legion Branch South Carleton 314 Manotick and the Royal Canadian Legion Branch 641 Barrhaven submitted an application to rename the bridge, which spans the Rideau River connecting Strandherd Drive and Earl Armstrong Road.

I was proud to support veterans and members of the Royal Canadian Legion with their proposal. As the Nation’s Capital, it is fitting to have a name that honours this historic event in our nation’s history.

The proposal was brought forward to commemorate the 100th Anniversary of the beginning of World War I and the Battle of Vimy. The naming will help remind us all of the great sacrifices that were made by Canadian Veterans in one of our greatest triumphs.

Upcoming Road Closures to Accommodate Construction Activities I have been advised by City Officials that there will be some weekend road closures in South Ottawa to accommodate the construction of the Leitrim Feedermain Project. The project consists of installing a new watermain feed along Leitrim Road, from the old CPR Right-Of-Way to Albion Road, and along Albion Road, from Leitrim Road to Del Zotto Avenue. The feedermain is required to provide additional potable water capacity and reliability for the continued growth in South Ottawa.

Albion Road will be closed from Leitrim Road to Findlay Creek Drive from 7:00AM Saturday, October 18 until 6:00AM Monday, October 20. Leitrim Road will also be closed from Gilligan Road to Bowesville Road from 8:00PM Friday, October 17 until 6:00AM Saturday, October 18.

Local and emergency vehicle access will be maintained at all times during the closure. I appreciate the community’s patience as we complete this infrastructure project.

Enbridge Gas Line Installation Residents may have noticed construction related activity near the StrandherdArmstrong Bridge. Enbridge Gas Distribution is installing a new natural gas pipeline to meet the growing demand for natural gas in the Barrhaven and Riverside South areas. The pipeline will run along Prince of Wales Drive and Strandherd Drive and will connect two existing lines. The project is anticipated to take approximately three months to complete.

Public Consultations for New Parks in Ward 22 I would like to thank residents who came out to the recent public meetings to view the concept plans for Summerhill Park in Riverside South and Leitrim East Neighbourhood Park in Findlay Creek. For those residents that were unable to attend the public meetings, I invite you to visit my website www.stevedesroches. ca to view the proposed plans and provide your feedback. The parks are expected to be constructed in Summer 2015.

Thanksgiving Day Schedule Changes Just a reminder that on Monday, October 13th, numerous city services will be closed for the Thanksgiving Day long weekend. I would recommend checking www.ottawa.ca for more information. Please also visit www.octranspo.com for any schedule changes due to the holiday.

Please contact me if I can be of assistance.

St. Patâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s environment students want your old electronics Erin McCracken erin.mccracken@metroland.com

News â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Students of St. Patrickâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Catholic High School are not only thinking green, but also thinking outside the box.

Environment Club students will host their second free public electronics collection and recycling event for the public on Oct. 18, from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m., at the school, located at 2525 Alta Vista Rd. Everyone is invited to drive up and drop off their unwanted electronics, including power bars and cables, televisions and digital cameras as well as copiers, cellphones and computers â&#x20AC;&#x201C; either still working or broken and in pieces. Items that wonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t be collected include kitchen appliances.

The experience teaches the young volunteers about the

importance of caring for their community, as well as the value of educating the public on diverting e-waste from the landfill, said resource teacher Katherine Martin, one of two teachers who oversee the Environment Club. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I find itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s going to be a good way to help out the environment,â&#x20AC;? Grade 11 student Kayla Garcia said of her reasons for joining the club.

Likewise, Khadar Cumer, who is also in Grade 11, said he too was drawn to helping the club during its special events. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I just like helping the earth â&#x20AC;&#x201C; to keep it clean,â&#x20AC;? he said.

The recycling event, which will be held rain or shine, will also allow club members to raise much-needed funds to improve the environmental health of the school and surrounding community.

Students become environmental role models: teacher Through Ontario Electronics Stewardship, which will pick up the recyclables and ensure they are recycled responsibly, St. Patrick’s will receive funds to pay for greening initiatives at the school, such as new garbage and recycling sorting bins.

Two years ago, when St. Patrick’s hosted its inaugural electronics waste-recycling event, participants raised more than $2,500.

The funds allowed them to donate to the Free the Children charity, as well as purchase reusable water bottles and a tree that has since been planted on school grounds.

“Over the last five years

we’ve put almost 100 trees on our property,” said Martin.

“So it’s really transformed (the school), and a lot of that is through fundraising like this, and through city of Ottawa grants.”

During that event, old computer monitors, large televisions and stereo systems, cords, as well as a surprising number of cellphones were dropped off.

“I never realized how many cellphones people went through,” said Martin.

“There was one woman who brought in a box full, and I guess her three children went through over 20 cellphones in the last 10 years or so and she kept them all.”

Martin has already been

bringing into the school old TVs, a VCR, router, label maker, computer speakers and a laptop in advance of the upcoming event.

“I’ve been holding on to my electronics for two years and I’m now recruiting my neighbours to send me stuff, so I have a few car fulls,” she said.

The upcoming e-waste event will be the club’s second major initiative since school started back up last month.

Club members were joined on Sept. 27 by about 40 other St. Patrick’s student volunteers, as well as several Carleton University students, to pick up litter at Sandalwood Park and Edge Hill Park.

“I think it teaches (us) that you should never litter – always keep the planet clean,” Cumer said.

While the students were out cleaning around their school and working in the parks, two little girls saw the teens pitching in and decided to get involved.

Both Garcia and Cumer were impressed with their enthusiasm.

“Even though they’re not from our school and they’re really young, they still want to help out,” Cumer said.

It’s motivating for students when they realize they are setting a positive example in their community, said

Martin.

“A lot of these guys they become leaders then and role models to other people that see them doing good work,” she said, adding the students also learn to be responsible and their self confidence develops through their volunteer efforts.

St. Patrick’s Environment Club also has a number of other activities underway and in the works, including a tree planting and Mother’s Day plant sale, which both take place next spring.

The youths will also be organizing waste and energy audits at school, and will be handing out prizes to students who pack waste-free lunches.

Together, they collected 23 kilograms of trash at Sandalwood, a park the school first adopted three years ago, and three kilograms from Edge Hill Park, which St. Patrick’s is looking to adopt this year.

Water bottles and food wrappers were a common find, but students also collected books, a shoelace, even a table leg.

Martin said their recent cleanup produced their largest ever haul of garbage.

“I haven’t seen that much in a while,” agreed Garcia, who found a digital camera during the cleanup.

The students say they are learning important lessons about caring for the earth

Having campaigned before at the provincial and federal political level, Carleton Heights resident Don Francis hopes to bring his experience to the council table as the next River Ward councillor.

He taught communications at Algonquin College for about 20 years, and for almost 30 years he and his wife have helped children, as well as some adults, with reading

Q: Why are you running?

A: “I want to see some of

Congratulations

Q: Detail your past political experience or activism, whether it’s volunteering, campaigning, donations or employment at any level of government or political party.

A: Francis served six terms as a school board trustee for the former Ottawa Board of Education from 1972 to 1985.

In addition to working with Elections Ontario and Elections Canada in supervising polls a number of times, he also has run as a Green Party candidate federally for the member of parliament position in Calgary West in 1993.

Francis also campaigned twice for the New Democrats

Q: How are you going to fundraise for your campaign?

A: Francis said he is asking friends, and is paying a group of youths to do some fundraising for him.

“I think that’s one way of engaging youth in politics that we sometimes ignore,” he said.

Q: Do you have any potential pecuniary interests or declared conflict of interest with builders, developers, construction companies?

A: “Absolutely none,” he said.

Q: What do you think the biggest issue was in River Ward this term and how was it handled? What will be the big issue next term?

A: “Before the last election there was enormous controversy about transit again. Certainly about garbage collection and a lot of tension – meetings seemed to go on and on without resolution,” he said.

“I think the happiest thing about the last four years was that it’s been much more civilized and I’d like to see that

continue obviously. I think there’s room for lots of debate and I think that I will be challenging positions to take.”

Francis said he’d also like to champion the protection of McCarthy Woods from development, and would like to see a poet’s walk developed in that area.

He supports both light-rail transit and the O-Train extension, particularly the line to the Ottawa Macdonald-Cartier International Airport.

“I know that some of those (transit plans) are under threat, so I’m happy to lend my support to ensure they are completed,” he said.

“I am certain I can make some contribution to the council with (my past political) experience on certain key issues like transit, and the environmental issues as well,” he said, adding he wants to see efforts continue on plans to clean up the Ottawa River.

Other candidates currently registered in River Ward include Riley Brockington, Barbara Carroll, Antonio Giannetti, Jeff Koscik, Michael Kostiuk, Mike Patton, Colin Pennie, Vanessa Sutton and Bruce Winchester.

Canada’s dwindling blood supply prompts appeal for donors Erin McCracken erin.mccracken@metroland.com

News - A blood shortage across the country has prompted Canadian Blood Services to appeal for donors to roll up their sleeves and boost dwindling supplies to keep hospitals from having to defer elective surgeries and other treatments.

Summertime is typically a slow donation time due to people’s holiday travel schedules, but in the past few months demand for blood, coupled with low donor attendance, has resulted in Canada’s lowest blood inventory since 2008.

“Every community has been struggling this year and that’s why we officially launched the appeal on Tuesday morning (Sept. 30) to all Canadians,” said Pamela Mullins, director of donor relations for Canadian Blood Services, a national non-profit that manages much of Canada’s blood supply. “We typically like to keep inventory between five and eight days on hand and right now we are just hovering around that three-day

ERIN MCCRACKEN/METROLAND

Allan Vandervoort, a resident of Ottawa’s Byward Market, donates blood for the second time in his life. The 27 year old wasn’t aware of the Canadian Blood Services’ nationwide appeal for blood, but was happy to help at the organization’s donation site at 1575 Carling Ave. on Oct. 2. mark.

“That’s why we have raised this to a critical issue.”

It is imperative for the agency to keep adequate supplies on hand in order to serve hospital

demands for blood on a day-today basis. Blood types A and O are especially needed.

“So if we don’t turn this around, we will have difficulty meeting the expected hospital

demands across the country,” said Mullins.

Elective surgeries and other routine medical treatments may have to be delayed until blood donations rise to healthy

levels. Hospitals are not yet at that stage, but they are closely monitoring the situation, she said.

“That’s why this is so critical.”

Canadian Blood Services collects about 17,000 units a week across the country, but has been failing to accomplish that in recent months due to higher-than-expected appointment cancellation and no-show rates.

“So in order for us to turn that around, not only do we have to meet those 17,000 units a week, but we also have to have an additional 7,500 on top of that to make up the shortfall we have been seeing,” the director said.

While the organization recognizes that people lead very busy lives, they are hearing from donors who think that if they don’t show up for their appointment there will be other donors waiting in the wings.

“But there isn’t and that’s the issue,” Mullins said. “So if you don’t come in, that unit doesn’t get to the hospital and

doesn’t get to the patient.”

Some people aren’t donating because they say no one has asked them.

“So we’re officially asking,” she said. “It’s really such a wonderful thing that you can be doing – it’s an easy thing that you can be doing – to truly have a direct impact on somebody’s life.”

Fifty-two per cent of Canadians say they or someone they know has needed blood or a blood product for surgeries or medical treatments, “yet less than four per cent of the population donates,” said Mullins.

Setting aside one hour can make a huge difference.

“It’s such a significant gift that you can be giving to find that hour of your time, and in the grand scheme of things isn’t really that hard to do.”

To donate blood, visit blood. ca, call 1-888-2-DONATE or 1-888-236-6283 or download a free GiveBlood app on your iPhone or Android, which allows users to find a blood clinic location and book an appointment.

Black animals in shelters have traditionally faced a tougher time finding forever homes simply because of the colour of their fur. Whether it’s due to superstitions about unlucky onyx cats or fears that pitch pooches are more aggressive, the consensus among humane societies is that black animals tend to stay longer in shelter before finding homes, often passed over for their fairer counterparts.

In an effort to help more black animals go home sooner, this month, the Ottawa Humane Society’s Pets in Black (PIB) team will be erasing all your preconceived notions about black animals with an adoption special.

These PIBs are the black animal reputation defenders.

And contrary to the myths about black kitties and ghostly midnight hounds, PIBs make great pets! When you adopt a black cat or dog from the OHS in October, you’ll take

home an adoption starter that will turn your vivid memories about black animals into fantasies.

For raven-furred cats, the OHS take-home kit includes: UÊ ÌÌiÀÊL Ý UÊ >ÌÊÌ Þ UÊ ÌÌiÀÊÃV « UÊ `ÊÃV « UÊ /Ài>Ìà Black or mostly black dogs will be sent to their forever home with: UÊ " -Ê« «ÊL>}à UÊ `Ê> `ÊÜ>ÌiÀÊ` à ià UÊ }ÊõÕiiâiÊL> UÊ `ÊÃV « UÊ /Ài>Ìà They walk in shadow but don’t fear them, cheer them, these Pets in Black — they really make great companions, just like their lighter shelter mates!

Flash your â&#x20AC;&#x2122;stache for prostate cancer Emma Jackson emma.jackson@metroland.com

News - Whether your inspiration comes from Tom Selleck, Charlie Chaplin or Hulk Hogan, get ready to flash your â&#x20AC;&#x2122;stache this fall in support of local prostate cancer care.

The eastern Ontario prostate cancer awa r e n e s s committee has launched its third annual Dare to Flash a â&#x20AC;&#x2122;Stache c a m paign, which raises money for prostate cancer programs at the Winchester District Memorial Hospital Foundation and the Ottawa Hospital Foundation.

Similar to the infamous â&#x20AC;&#x153;Movemberâ&#x20AC;? fundraiser, Dare to Flash a â&#x20AC;&#x2122;Stache asks participants to shave

clean on Oct. 31 before spending the month of November creating their best facial coif.

Gentlemen already sporting a legendary beard, can choose instead to give their chops the chop at the campaignâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s wrap-up event on Nov. 29.

The committee hopes to raise $65,000 this year, which will be split between the Winchester hospitalâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s new cancer navigation program and the Ottawa Hospitalâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s prostate cancer research project led by Dr.

Anthony Bella â&#x20AC;&#x201C; the first of its kind in Canada. Bellaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s research is looking for novel ways to prevent and repair nerve damage caused by prostate cancer treatments.

In Winchester, this is the second year the committee is supporting the navigation program, which hired its first co-ordinator this summer, longtime nurse Linda Johnson.

The program helps patients diagnosed with cancer find the resources they need. â&#x20AC;&#x153;When people are identified with cancer, theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re left in a cloud,â&#x20AC;? said committee co-chairman Tom Clapp, a prostate cancer survivor. â&#x20AC;&#x153;They donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t know who to talk to,

where to go. So here, when someoneâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s diagnosed theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve got a contact person to help them down that road.â&#x20AC;?

MOUSTACHE MONEY

The campaign website, flashastache.ca, is up and ready for individuals, companies and organizations to sign up and start raising funds.

The wind-up event will begin on Nov. 29 at 7 p.m. at the Joel Steele Community Centre above the Winchester arena.

Guests can cheer for their home towns at a South Dundas vs. North

Dundas ladies hockey game, followed by two short games between Morrisburg Lions alumni and Winchester Hawks alumni.

Following the hockey games, there will be a moustache judging competition and recognition for the top individual, team and fire station fundraisers. â&#x20AC;&#x153;People are doing it for fun, and we just want to g e t as much awareness as possible,â&#x20AC;?

Clapp said. Along with organizing the annual moustache campaign, the committee hopes to promote its monthly prostate cancer support group, which meets in Mountain.

For more information or to get involved, call Tom Clapp at 613774-3565 or Linda McMahon at 613-774-3431.

Rideau span to be renamed Vimy Memorial Bridge Emma Jackson emma.jackson@metroland.com

News – The Strandherd-Armstrong bridge in south Ottawa will soon be christened the Vimy Memorial Bridge, if council accepts a recommendation from the transportation committee.

The Manotick and Barrhaven branches of the Royal Canadian Legion jointly proposed the name Vimy Bridge this July, with the support of Gloucester-South Nepean Coun.

Steve Desroches.

The bridge spans the Rideau River, connecting Earl Armstrong Road in Riverside South and Strandherd Drive in Barrhaven.

The proposal aimed to memorialize the 1917 battle of Vimy Ridge, in which 3,600 Canadian troops were killed and another 7,000 were wounded.

A month of consultation revealed overwhelming support for the spirit of the proposal, but enough people were put off by the perceived wordplay of rhyming “bridge” with “ridge” that the commemorative naming committee added the word “memorial” to appease most naysayers.

“Some (people) objected to what

they perceived as a pun on Vimy Ridge,” said Diane Blais in the city clerk’s office. “The compromise of adding the name ‘memorial’ alleviated their concerns, because their major concern was the play on words.”

Barrhaven legion president Ernie Hughes said the two branches support the revised name – and said it was never their intention to make a pun out of the nation-building battle.

“Once we heard (the revised name) we totally agreed with it. It does sound better,” Hughes said.

In total, the clerk’s office received 293 emails, two letters, four phone calls and a petition signed by 352 individuals responding to the proposal.

Of these 651 responses, 560 were in support and 91 were in opposition, according to a staff report.

Blais said some dissenters disagreed with memorializing wars in general, while others wanted more focus on peacekeeping efforts.

Others thought the battle of Vimy Ridge deserved to be honoured on a more prominent piece of infrastructure, rather than “a suburban bridge.”

But Hughes said there’s no better project for the memorial than the $48 million span connecting two of Otta-

wa’s fastest growing communities.

“A lot of people say let’s wait for the bridge that crosses from Ontario to Quebec; well, they’re never going to name it that,” Hughes said. A new international bridge to the United States wouldn’t accept the name, either, he predicted.

“People are dreaming if they think there’s going to be another project in the city.”

Staff recommended the transportation committee accept the commemorative name on the grounds that it holds historic significance for the region and country.

A group of legion members from the two southern branches, as well as members from Bells Corners, attended the meeting on Oct. 1 to show their support for the commemorative name.

“We all look back at those people who fought in World War One; here they are charging automatic weapons,” Hughes said. “Canadian soldiers, we remember that type of stuff and the heroes it took to do that.

The only way to honour them, as civilians, is to name things after the things they’ve done.”

City council was set to approve the final decision on Oct. 8.

Ernie Hughes was the brainchild behind a proposal to rename the Strandherd-Armstrong bridge after the battle of Vimy Ridge.

Coalition hopes to lay waste to current council Emma Jackson emma.jackson@metroland.com

News - A handful of candidates across the city of Ottawa are promising to scrap the green bin program, bring back weekly garbage pickup, give hydro dividends back to customers and stop the spread of bio-solids on local farmlands.

The Ottawa Property Owners Coalition is the brainchild of Osgoode Ward candidate Mark Scharfe, a farmer and retired Ottawa police officer who wants to overturn the current council – and most of its decisions.

But one candidate is not enough.

“Even if I’m fortunate enough to get elected, if I bring a motion to this council and they haven’t changed much, I’ll just get outvoted,” Scharfe said. “So we have to get at least half of them out of there.”

Scharfe said he has found 14 other candidates across 23 wards who agreed to bring back “basic municipal services” like weekly garbage pickup.

Along with his son Brandon Scharfe running in Alta Vista and his nephew Roger Scharfe in GloucesterSouth Nepean, Scharfe said coalition candidates include Jennifer Robitaille (Orleans), Ian Bursey (Barrhaven), James Parsons (West CarletonMarch), David Lee (Stittsville), Guy Annable (College), Mohamed Roble (Gloucester-Southgate), Rene Tessier (Beacon Hill-Cyrville), David-George Oldham (Rideau Vanier), Michael Kostiuk (River), Marc Belisle (Cum-

Osgoode candidate Mark Scharfe, seen here at a Sept. 24 debate, has gathered 13 other candidates to support his platform calling for the end of Orgaworld. berland), Andrew Modray (Innes) and Bruce Faulkner (Kanata South).

If most of them get elected, Scharfe said that would be enough to make big changes at city hall.

“If we can get 11 or 12 to support this platform, then we can get it through. It’s no more complicated than that,” he said.

West Carleton-March candidate

James Parsons said he was “on board from the get-go.”

He said he agreed with Scharfe on most policy points, and especially believed in his election strategy.

“There’s been much made about Mr. O’Brien, or even Mr. Harper, in that they brought forth a platform telling the people ‘ This is what we are probably able to accomplish if enough of us get elected in, because we have voting power,’” Parsons said.

River Ward candidate Michael Kostiuk said he was also happy to join Scharfe’s team.

“I’m running on a governance issue: improving the governance at the city of Ottawa,” he said. “To try to do things individually it’s difficult, particularly if you’re a newcomer. Unless you get together your voice is small.”

The platform centres on the “dangerous and ineffective” Orgaworld green bin program, which Scharfe says “took advantage” of Ottawa taxpayers.

“I read the contract myself, and I can tell you unequivocally that I don’t know a farmer or a businessman in the city of Ottawa who would ever sign something like that,” he said.

In July, a report from city auditor general Ken Hughes found that the city has already overspent $8 million on the Orgaworld contract.

The city pays at least $7 million a year to Orgaworld to process 80,000 tonnes of organic waste.

It’s a threshold the city has barely been able to reach in the seven years since the contract was negotiated, leaving the city to pay to process some waste twice.

Ottawa South News - Thursday, October 9, 2014

Property owners’ group targets green bin, garbage, bio-solids Continued from page 39

The city has paid $4.7 million extra for unutilized capacity since the start of the contract, plus $3 million extra since the start of the contract to separately process leaf and yard waste, Hughes said.

But cancelling the contract is no easy feat either: city manager Kent Kirkpatrick said cancelling would cost between $8 million and $10 mil-

lion – and Orgaworld would likely argue it’s higher.

The property owners group also wants to bring back weekly garbage pickup – an essential municipal service, Scharfe says – and also giving Hydro Ottawa’s annual dividends back to its customers instead of city hall.

Scharfe is also passionate about stopping the spread of bio-solids – treated human sewage – on farm-

ers’ fields, something he considers a public safety issue.

Retiring Osgoode Coun. Doug Thompson, who has spent 31 years in municipal politics, said he doubts the coalition will sweep council as Scharfe hopes.

“You can go out and find in every ward someone who would say, ‘Yes, I’m going to join; if we’re elected we’ll work at getting rid of Orgaworld and the green bin,”

“That was way to easy!”

Thompson said. “But the reality is that you’re one vote. Maybe one of them ever has a chance of sitting around the table.”

He said being what he calls a “no group” doesn’t tend to go far.

“The general public might not like the green bin program as much as we thought, but I think people are more sensible than saying just cancel everything,” he said. “There is a cost to every-

thing.”

Scharfe said he believes the group represents the interests of all Ottawa homeowners.

“We want to be sure the community knows we’re not a renegade group of left- or right-wingers,” he said.

“We’re just standing up for what we feel are the basic municipal services that should be provided to property owners.”

“I just clicked and saved 90%”

Did you WagJag and get in on the savings?

“I can't believe I saved so much... ”

Low-income Ottawans being squeezed at the supermarket Healthy food prices have jumped 10% in a year: Ottawa Public Health Steph Willems steph.willems@metroland.com

News - Low-income Ottawa residents are finding it harder than ever to feed their families, according to the findings of an Ottawa Public Health study.

The 2014 Nutritious Food Basket survey shows that the cost of putting nutritious meals on the table has increased by 10 per cent in the past year.

The findings were released by OPH health promotion manager Sherry Nigro at a food security event held Oct. 1 at the Canada Agriculture and Food Museum.

The rapid rise in food costs, couple with other inflationary pressures, is squeezing individuals and families to the breaking point, said Nigro.

“It means that families are paying an extra $80 a year for food,” said Nigro.

“If you have to pay for your rent, and pay for your food, then you’re already in a deficit … Many, many families in Ottawa are struggling to make ends meet, and what do you think are going to be the priorities?

A house over your head, and the ability to pay for heat. So, where will you squeeze? You’ll squeeze by eating less, or by going to a food bank.”

STUDY

The study is performed by visiting 10 different grocery stores across the city and recording the price of 67 different items, allowing for year-over-year comparisons.

Between 2013 and 2014, the cost of feeding a family of four rose from $789 to $869.

For a family supported by Ontario Works or ODSP, this means that 40 per cent of their monthly income would need to be spent on food; however, the high cost of rent (65 per cent of a budget) means families often have to choose to go without heat, electricity, food, or any number of living expenses to make ends meet.

Each month, 48,000 people in Ot-

tawa receive emergency food from local food banks.

Nigro estimates that one in 10 Ottawa households is food insecure.

“Where I want to end this is for all of us, as individuals, as professionals, as advocates, and as community members, to think what this means for us,” said Nigro.

“It’s about knowing what resources are out there, it’s about being vigilant and thinking about this through the various lenses … I think each one of us, when we walk out of here, should be thinking of what those implications will be.”

Sherry Nigro, Ottawa Public Health’s manager of health promotion and disease prevention, speaks to an audience at the Canada Agriculture and Food Museum on Oct. 1. A recent study found that the price of healthy food has risen 10 percent in the past year, placing thousands of Ottawa residents in an increasingly desperate situation.

Stein sale a big success Fundraiser raises the roof for St. Matthews Michelle Nash michelle.nash@metroland.com

News - A mug sale in the Glebe turned out to be quite successful for a local church.

The St. Matthewâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Anglican Church held a unique fundraiser on Sept. 27 where 3,000 beer steins were sold in an effort to raise money to help ďŹ x the churchâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s ailing roof.

The mugs, donated by Derele Scharfe, were collected by Scharfeâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s father, Milton Erele Armstrong, over the course of many years. Scharfe said she donated the mugs to the church because it is where her parents were married in 1942.

Originally, the churchâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s

fundraising committee were unsure the best way to sell the large quantity of mugs, but their plans turned out to be quite a success.

Event organizer Margret Nankivell reported that in total the fundraiser brought in $6,000. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We are very pleased with the results which were a bit higher than we expected and we still have some mugs to sell,â&#x20AC;? Nankivell said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;And more importantly â&#x20AC;&#x201C; it was a great party for the parishioners and visitors.â&#x20AC;?

Of the leftover mugs, Nankivell said the church will donate some to Harmony House and many will be sold at next yearâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Great Glebe Garage Sale.

It was the ďŹ rst time the church utilized its parking lot, which it shares with the neighbouring condominium.

The condo building agreed to have the parking lot completely closed so the church could set up both food and

beer tables as well as the silent auction.

The Polished Brass Quintet, who performed throughout the event told Nankivell they were pleased with the crowd, who shopped for mugs, drank some beer and ate a sausage or two in the courtyard.

â&#x20AC;&#x153;We are very pleased with the results which were a bit higher than we expected and we still have some mugs to sellâ&#x20AC;?

MARGRET NANKIVELL

Nankivell said the church was pleased with how well it worked to use the parking FILE lot. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It was as perfect a fall day Before the big day, Margret Nankivell and Derele Scharfe waded through hundreds of as you will get,â&#x20AC;? Nankivell boxes of beer mugs â&#x20AC;&#x201C; everything from wooden, ceramic and classic beer-labeled glass mugs were for sale at the churchâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s first ever Mugs and Suds event on Sept. 27. said.

Ottawa South News - Thursday, October 9, 2014

News - Two local parenting support organizations now have the funding to help expand their services.

The Youville Centre and St. Mary’s Home were granted $300,000 from the Ontario Trillium Foundation on Sept. 30 at the Youville’s annual general meeting at the United Way Ottawa’s office.

Both organizations work with teen and young mothers in different capacities.

At St. Mary’s, at-risk and homeless pregnant and parenting youth receive prenatal education, infant mental health and parenting counselling.

The Youville Centre helps young mothers complete their education by making childcare, mental health and addiction counselling available.

The funding from the grant will be split evenly between the two organizations and will help each towards their goal of becoming accredited mental health agencies.

The accreditation could take up to four years. The organizations will use the funding to hire a consultant to

help them with the process.

Both executive directors of St. Mary’s Home, Nancy MacNider and Youville Centre’s Cindy Simpson both expressed excitement about expanding services at the organizations.

“St. Mary’s Home is thrilled to have this new opportunity to enhance our organizational strengths while partnering with the Youville Centre,” MacNider said.

“As we reach towards excellence in a process that shares economies of scale, we are building on decades of collaboration on behalf of pregnant and parenting youth and their children. This announcement means: We all win.”

Simpson said both Youville and St. Mary’s have been partners for decades and was thrilled to have the opportunity to work together towards the accreditation.

Ottawa-Vanier MPP Madeleine Meilleur, who could not attend the funding announcement, said in a press release she was proud to announce the province’s support for the collaborative initiative.

“Ontario is committed to improving mental health services for children and youth,” Meilleur said, adding the Trillium funds will help strengthen the community-based system for delivering mental health services and will bring people and organizations closer together locally.

Ottawa South News - Thursday, October 9, 2014

MP helps kids get a fair shot Sports initiative helps orphaned and abandoned children emma.jackson@metroland.com

News - Soccer practice, swimming lessons, baseball games: activities many kids don’t question; activities they rely on to thrive and grow.

But not every child gets a chance to participate in sports, particularly orphaned or abandoned kids in the care of the Children’s Aid Society.

That’s a problem Nepean-Carleton MP Pierre Poilievre aims to address with his new fundraising initiative Fair Shot.

He launched the project at a community barbecue in North Gower on Sept. 13, raising more than $8,000 to cover sports registration fees for children who can’t otherwise afford to play.

The money came mostly from corporate sponsors, and went directly to the Children’s Aid Foundation of Ottawa to support families caring for orphaned and abandoned kids, Poilievre said.

Children’s Aid Society adoption worker Lena Hillock said kin families – relatives, friends or community members who have a connection to the child – often face significant financial barriers when they take in a child or multiple children.

“If they’re taking in these children they’re probably doing this from the goodness of their heart and they’re saying, ‘We’ll figure it out.’ The most important thing is this kid knows he’s loved and cared for and his needs are being met,” Hillock said.

“But those little extra things will kind of be put aside, because if you think of the cost of hockey registration for example, you’re looking at $500 for registration plus the equipment costs and fees. Even simple swimming lessons are a couple hundred dollars a year.”

At the Ottawa agency, there are currently 100 kin families that are caring for anywhere between one to six children through kinship, legal custody or adoption, Hillock said.

“We will look at each of the requests, and we are usually privy to the financial need of the families,” she said, adding the agency plans to start doling out the new funds very soon. “We’ll just make sure those monies go to the families that really need it, where otherwise the child wouldn’t be able to participate in that sport.”

Foundation director Walter Noble said the money could help between 20 and 25 children access sports programs in the region.

He said Poilievre’s program has already expanded the foundation’s “cookie jar” fund by 20 per cent.

“This fund is requested by front line workers, and pays for sports registrations and cultural programs like museum passes,” Noble said. “We were able to expand it in the area of kids’ sports registrations. It’s very, very generous and very kind.”

Poilievre was adopted as a child, and despite growing up in a middle class family he said he too struggled to access sports when his family fell

on tough times.

“We did go through a rough period during the recession in the 1980s, so I wasn’t able to start playing hockey until I was 12, which is very late,” he said. “I thought if we could do something to help kids who are in need, I want to do that.”

Polievre said he hopes the Fair Shot project will be a long-term, consistent source of money for the Children’s Aid Society, although he said he has to think about how he’ll fundraise next.

“I think we’ve exhausted some of our corporate generosity, so we have to get creative,” he said.

Donations came from Scotiabank, Enbridge, Rideau-Carleton Entertainment Centre, Ross’ Independent Grocer and some individual contributions from attendees, according to Poilievre’s office.

Dealing with Stress and Anxiety at University Attending university can be one of the most enjoyable experiences of your life. It can also be one the most stressful. Moving away from home and being presented with exciting new social and academic situations can lead to high levels of both stress and anxiety. A survey of more than 30,000 Canadian students revealed that nearly 90% of students felt overwhelmed by everything they had on their plates in the past year, and 56% experienced overwhelming anxiety.

Renew Life Norwegian Gold Super Critical Omega I love Renew Life Norwegian Gold Super Critical Omega because it is a high potency formula with Vitamin D in one capsule a day. The oil is contained in capsules made from fish gelatine that also contain lipase - the enzyme that helps your body break down fats, so no more unpleasant fishy burps.

Here are some simple ways to proactively take care of your mental health.

Ten ways to manage stress and anxiety: 1.

10.

Eat well.

Get exercise.

Surround yourself with love.

Make connections with your professors.

Get sufďŹ cient sleep.

Take some time to yourself.

Go outside.

Recognize and avoid stress triggers.

Explore holistic approaches.

Keep things in perspective.

Balance in your diet is particularly important. What you eat affects your energy level, attention span, memory and happiness. Likewise, exercise can be extremely helpful when you need to clear your mind or deal with that gnawing anxiety of an upcoming exam.

Even though the all-nighter is tempting, being rested does wonders for memory retention and focus levels. While procrastinating will only add to stress levels, an hour break to make yourself dinner or watch your favourite TV show can also bring a world of peace to your mind.

Try to ďŹ nd a place to study outdoors or go for a walk and allow yourself some fresh air and sunlight.

Days can begin to feel long and overwhelming when you spend too much time inside. Figure out what is triggering stress; maybe itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s the eerie quietness of the library or that friend that is constantly bragging about her grades. Address the trigger and learn to either avoid it or work around it.

Andalou Naturals Kukui Cocoa Body Butter The Andalou Naturals Kukui Cocoa Body Butter is my new favourite moisturizer! It is so rich, and blends essential omegas 3-6-9 with cocoa and Shea butters to soothe and soften even the driest skin. It is a fall must have, and also comes in passion fruit scent which is just as amazing!

Keep in mind that reducing anxiety doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t have to mean turning to prescription drugs. Products like those from Veeva work to calm the mind and ease away stress and anxiety using herbal ingredients. Always remember that a failed test or a bad mark does not deďŹ ne you as a student or person.

Dwelling on disappointment will send stress and anxiety levels soaring. For this reason, the single best thing you can do to manage stress and anxiety is to stay positive by proactively protecting yourself from feeling overwhelmed and unable to cope.

Did you Know?

- Lemon balm can help reduce stress by 72% and anxiety by 32%!

- Omega 3s, found in ďŹ sh and ďŹ sh oils help support cognitive health and brain function, and help promote healthy mood balance.

- Physical activity can boost endorphins and increase self-conďŹ dence.

Jessica Abela-Froese is a recent Queenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s graduate with a degree in Political Science, passionate writer, and mental health enthusiast.

SENIORS

Marguirite felt her birthday gift was lacking

R

are indeed were the times we girls of the Northcote School were ever invited to play at Marguirite’s

home.

But that week nine of us, all who were in the junior grades, got little invitations handed out by Marguirite herself. They were done up with real printing, no doubt on one of those new typewriters that we read about in the Ottawa Farm Journal, and we were all invited to a party to celebrate Marguirite’s eighth birthday.

Well. This demanded a meeting at the Northcote School, let me tell you. Cora said we should all just not go. Joyce said that would be very bad manners. Velma and I said we wouldn’t miss it for the world. For days, we could talk about nothing else.

I was the only one who had ever been in Marguirite’s house, and that was a day I would be happy to forget about. I barely got my nose inside the door when Marguirite and I got into an argument, and I was hustled home in her mother’s car before I had a chance to even have a

MARY COOK Memories good look around. I knew for a fact there were electric lights and a flush toilet, because Marguirite made sure we all knew about her modern conveniences. And there I was gypped out of trying either. Imagine a flush toilet, not a little hut behind the cedar trees at the back of the house, and electric lights just like they had in the houses in Renfrew.

The party was on a Saturday, and we were all decked out in our very best clothes -- the ones we wore to church on Sundays. When we arrived on the dot, Marguirite looked like she had just stepped out of a gift box. Her artificial curls were tight around her head and looked for all the world like little golden sausages. I could have sworn she had on lipstick and a spattering of rouge.

Her mother shook hands with us, just like the minister did after church on Sunday, and it didn’t take long for her to get us playing games, quiet ones, like snakes and ladders and Chinese checkers, and there were prizes for the winners.

Finally, we are shuffled out of the parlour and into the dining room -- Joyce’s house was the only one I knew of which had a dining room -- the rest of us ate our meals around old pine tables in our kitchens.

There was even a white table cloth spread out, and in the very centre of the table was a cake with candles, and in front of each of our plates was a little bag like Mr. Briscoe used to measure out black pepper. A gift for each of us to take home.

But before we could have our cake, Marguirite’s mother brought in all our presents and put them in front of her in a heap. My gift seemed to be the biggest in the pile, but I had taken a heart shaped box that had once held chocolates, and arranged inside of it a lace hanky Aunt Lizzie had sent me in the hand-me-down box. There was

certainly no money for frivolities like expensive birthday presents.

Even at that, I hated giving up the little hanky, the only nice one I had with real lace on it. And the box had held little treasures I had collected, like shiny stones, my own hankie with a few pennies tied in a corner, and hair ribbons I kept for special occasions.

And there I was handing over two of my most precious possessions to a girl who did nothing but cause me anguish at the Northcote School.

Finally, she was down to my present. My sister Audrey had wrapped it in red tissue paper that had been ironed and which was once wrapped around a Christmas present. Marguirite tore into the parcel, which I thought was very extravagant indeed. We would have saved the paper at our house.

I could tell she loved the heart shaped box, with the hand-painted face on the top. She lifted the lid and gazed at the lace hanky, which I read immediately as pure delight.

She took out the hanky, and stared at the inside of the box.

Then she said, “Where’s the chocolates?”

Her mother quickly held up the hanky and made clucking sounds of approval, while Marguirite looked at me as if I had just stolen eggs out of their chicken coop.

While the cake was doled out, Marguirite never took her eyes off me, and I had the worst urge to ask for both the hanky and the heart shaped box back. And I couldn’t wait for the party to be over.

But before we were all to head home, I decided I was going to get something out of the day besides Marguirite’s ill temper, so I went upstairs and used the flush toilet. In fact, I flushed it three or four times, and even though the sun was shining in the little window, I snapped the light switch on an off for good measure.

5 STAR SERVICE AT AFFORDABLE PRICES!

Programs back at Nepean equestrian park after investment Adam Kveton adam.kveton@metroland.com

News - Riders are back in the saddle at the former Nepean national equestrian park, where the Wesley Clover Foundation has taken over and committed to pumping $30 million into the site.

The park, located north of Corkstown Road on NCC land, had been leased by the city for years, but with the park’s infrastructure crumbling and major horse shows pulling out of the venue, the city looked to pull out of the site in late 2012.

With five groups interested in leasing the property, the Wesley Clover Foundation earned a shortterm lease from the NCC in March of 2013, and now has two 25-year leases for the park, said Wesley Clover Parks’ executive director, Karen Sparks.

After investing about $1 million in the park so far - including making the horse stables, arena and office building useable again and kicking out the raccoons that had taken up residence for the three months that the park had no caretaker - horse lessons returned last April.

While the equestrian portion of

P

the site will remain the primary focus, camping, hiking, soccer, winter sports and community events are all planned for the area, with some underway now, said Sparks.

Currently, the park’s Ian Millar School of Horsemanship (named after the Canadian Olympic equestrian) is tracking to have 100 participants by the end of the year, said Sparks, with 15 horses on-site.

Since Wesley Clover took over, the park has hosted seven horse shows, as well as eight runs through the existing trail system, with plans to connect to trails to the Trans Canada Trail network, said Sparks.

The existing 80 hectare, 148-site campground was also running this year, though little had to be done on that end, she said. A forest school has also been established in the park, offering pre-school programming with students spending 50 per cent or more of their time outdoors.

The school, run by Marlene Power who started the forest school concept, is expected to be the hub for forest schools in Canada, with educators having taken part in an on-site seminar in September.

Camping, soccer, winter sports, hiking and more planned for site Continued from page 57

Six soccer fields are planned to be ready for 2016, located on the east side of the property near Moodie Drive.

The West Ottawa Soccer Club, the Ottawa Royals Soccer Club and the Ottawa Sports and Social Club are expected to rent the fields and deal with booking, said Sparks.

The park is also working with the

Kanata Nordic Club, which will be doing some cross country ski trail grooming this winter, said Sparks, with a plan to have the park as the club’s main base of operations.

The foundation expects to make many more infrastructure improvements, including more parking, a covered stand area by the grand prix ring, and expanding the property’s pond into a lake for skating in the winter.

“I think there will be major pieces (built) for the next seven years,” said Sparks.

The foundation committed to spending $30 million over the 25year lease, but much of that will be spent in the first portion of the lease, she said, adding that work will be spread out so that areas of the park can continue to be used.

The endeavour is also completely philanthropic, said Sparks, as the

foundation’s lease states that all revenue from the park goes back into the property.

The foundation was interested in the property due to its potential, and because the foundation had sponsored horse show events there when the city leased the park.

“The grand prix field is international quality, but nothing around it is even regional quality, so it was just sad to see something that could be really great and a beautiful property right in the heart of the city being something that we can’t really be proud of,” she said.

Sparks, and equestrian herself and daughter of Terry Matthews, the founder of Wesley Clover International, pushed for the foundation’s lease proposal.

“I knew that this could be a real jewel,” she said, “and it (wasn’t being) used to its potential.”

Upcoming events at the park include: • a fall festival on Oct. 18 and 19 with a hay maze and more.

• a horsemanship class with team Millar on Oct. 25 and 26.

• a national level horse show from June 17-21 of 2015.

Ottawa South United soccer coach wins provincial award Brier Dodge brier.dodge@metroland.com

Sports - An Ottawa South United soccer coach has won a coaching award from the provincial coaches governing body.

Craig Stead, 24, won the 2014 Ontario Coaching Excellence Award for male grassroots coach on Sept. 20.

Stead has been a player with the club and coached all age groups, but he currently works six-to eight-yearold players in a developmental program.

The pre-academy program teaches fundamental skills, and is separate from the regular recreational stream.

Not all players in the program will go on to the high performance teams, but

CRAIG STEAD

the fundamental program prepares the players who will.

The team plays in a few festivals through the year, but Stead said the program focuses on building strong players for the future versus winning games.

â&#x20AC;&#x153;If youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re developing players properly, success and winning games is a byproduct,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re able to provide them a better fundamental technical ability when theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re going to the competitive stream â&#x20AC;&#x201C; or wherever they continue â&#x20AC;&#x201C; by having a greater impact at the earlier ages and working with their general athletic abilities.â&#x20AC;?

Ottawa South United is one of three Ottawa clubs that has a licence to enter teams into the Ontario youth league, so each age division at the club has several tiers of competitive play.

The club encompasses Riverside South, Findlay Creek, Barrhaven, Manotick, Kars and Greely areas, and has its main home field in Manotick, at George Nelms Park.

Stead started coaching a decade ago as a young teen, but heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s been part of the club since 1998 as a player.

He was hired by the club shortly after university and said he feels lucky to be able to do what he loves as his job.

According to his nomination from the club to the coachesâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; association, he is the only coach in the region to hold the United States Soccer Federation national youth license.

Last year he became one of the youngest coaches to earn the Canadian Soccer Association B license for coaching. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not ego-driven, heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s passiondriven,â&#x20AC;? said an Ottawa South United representative in the YouTube video shown at the awards. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s run the

whole gamut, from youth soccer to university soccerâ&#x20AC;Ś he knows it from the top to the bottom.â&#x20AC;?

The pre-academy program Stead runs started more than two years ago as a pilot project with 15 players; itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s now grown to over 100.

He said it was exciting to win the award from the coachesâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; association. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Sometimes when you work with younger players, because we donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t go to tournaments or theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re not graduating onto university or the professional stream, you donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t always see the immediate impact of the work youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re putting in,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;So itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s nice to see recognition for the work that not only myself, but all the coaching staff are putting in.â&#x20AC;?
