Ontario Liberals win majority

Jessica Cunha and Adam Kveton jessica.cunha@metroland.com

News - It was no contest in Carleton-Mississippi Mills, as Jack MacLaren handily won the riding with 47 per cent of the vote in the June 12 provincial election. But the win didn’t make it any easier for the Progressive Conservative incumbent to swallow a Liberal majority in Ontario. “Ontario could have been good again, but the voters of Ontario listened to the unions, they listened to the NDP and the Liberals tell lies

about our programs and our policies that would have created the wealth, would have reduced the spending,” he said during his speech at his election party at Graffiti’s Italian Eatery at the Holiday Inn and Suites Kanata. “There was light at the end of the tunnel,” he said to the roomful of supporters. “We were going to do things that would have created jobs, we were going to do things that would have balanced the budget in two years, and we were going to do it without firing people.” Although Ontarians in other ridings didn’t seem to share MacLaren’s views on the PCs, the incumbent easily took the Carleton-Mississippi Mills riding, garnering 30,501 votes, with his closest competitor, Liberal Rosalyn Stevens, receiving 20,472. John Hansen of the NDP earned 8,748 votes, while Green party candidate Andrew West obtained 4,614. Confident with how things were progressing in his riding, MacLaren sent $25,000 to three other PC candidates, including $10,000 to Matt Young, who campaigned in Ottawa South, $5,000 to Andrew Lister in Ottawa-Orléans and another $10,000 to Kevin Gaudet in Pickering-Scarborough East.

The siblings took part in the event in honour of their aunt, Louise Cousineau, a three-time cancer survivor. Teams pitched their tents and parked their campers for the all-night event, during which members took turns walking around the park for 12 hours to raise money for the Canadian Cancer Society. Just after nightfall, participants had the opportunity to light candles in memory of loved ones who lost their fight to cancer. To make a donation online, visit cancer.ca.

Local talent to headline this year’s Canada Day in Kanata adam.kveteon@metroland.com

Community - The Canada Day in Kanata team are celebrating the event’s 10th anniversary by featuring some of the best talent Kanata has to offer at this year’s celebration. Headlining the event this year will be Amos the Transparent, a Canadian rock band with Kanata roots who opened for Loverboy at the 2009 Canada Day in Kanata festival. All of the bands performing at this year’s event have played at Canada Day in Kanata, said director of programming Diane McNulty. “We are getting the best of the best that Kanata has to offer,” she said. That includes bands like Keek and Garden of Weeds, as

well as musicians Lucas Haneman and Angelique Francis. In the past, the event has featured “big name” headliners like Trooper, Loverboy, Glass Tiger and April Wine. “We figured that after nine years of having major Canadian headliners that we would sort of go back to our roots and we would bring back some of the bands that have performed over the past nine years,” said McNulty. New this year is the Kanata CAN Dance talent competition. The new feature was formed through a partnership with Capital City dance which will soon be opening a second location in Kanata, said McNulty. Individual dancers or dance crews between the ages of six and 24 can enter by submitting a video to www.face-

News - Costly new specifications for splash pads have stalled the construction of at least one city park and have city councillors demanding answers. Kanata South Coun. Allan Hubley and Cumberland Coun. Stephen Blais re-iterated their frustration over the lack of information they’ve received about technical drainage requirements they say will quadruple the cost of building a splash pad. Hubley said it will cost around $400,000 to install a new splash pad, according to city staff. That’s up from the previous estimated cost of around $100,000. The larger price tag comes from city staff advice that new splash pads will have to be built with dual drainage systems. “Where do these regulations come from that are causing the cost of splash pads to go so high?” Hubley said. Hubley said he has been told the water used in splash pads should drain into the sanitary sewer system for treatment during the summer when the splash pad is in use and into the city’s storm sewers in the off season. The information came to light over the winter when the councillor inquired about adding water-play features to parks.

$400,000 to install new splash pad: Hubley The issue has delayed construction of a new park at Crownridge Drive and Hope Side Road, which was supposed to be built this year. “In there was to be water play and other features,” Hubley said. “Under the original interpretation (of the drainage requirements), all that there would be money for would be the water play (feature), so I have delayed the park because I want some tennis courts in that park, too.” The only information Hubley said he’s received so far is a verbal interpretation of a “regulation” from city staff – but no details on whether it’s a new rule passed by the province or an existing protocol the city is getting around to enforcing. “Staff (is) saying we can’t move ahead with doing these water parks because of these changes, but we don’t have the formal report outlining the

changes,” Hubley said. A city spokesperson didn’t respond to a request for more information before this newspaper’s deadline.

Staff (is) saying we can’t move ahead with doing these water parks because of these changes, but we don’t have the formal report outlining the changes. COUN. ALLAN HUBLEY

He brought his frustration about the lack of response to his Feb. 18 environment committee inquiry to the planning committee last week in hopes of getting action on it.

Ranked in Top 10 for MLS® Sales in Ottawa* *based on MLS statistics January 2005 - May 2014.

Getting a “proper legal interpretation” in hand will give him something to refute, Hubley said. He said he’s building a case for the city to use water filtration systems available for $10,000 to $15,000 that would remove contaminants from the water, which could then be put into the storm sewers without a need for two drainage systems. Splash pads, unlike public pools, are considered to be “unregulated” under the Ontario Health Protection and Promotion Act. The province does provide operating guidelines for facilities like splash pads, which advise operators to ensure water can’t be left standing for more than 15 minutes without requiring additional disinfection. If water is re-circulated and held in a basin for more than 15 minutes, the guidelines advise that the water must be treated and discharged as waste water.

League of super volunteers brings comics to life for children Adam Kveton adam.kveton@metroland.com

News - Costume creators from across Ottawa are banding together to delight kids and raise money for the Children’s Wish Foundation. For more than a year, members of the League of Super Heroes, dressed up as DC and Marvel super heroes, have been attending various fundraising events upon request as a free attraction for kids. After taking pictures with children and adults alike, members of the league ask only that people consider making a donation to Children’s Wish Foundation, or another children’s charity. The league is the brainchild of Max Lauzon, a Barrhaven resident who was inspired by the birth of his son, he said. “I’m big into super hero costuming and building them,” said Lauzon. “My wife was pregnant with our son at the time, and I wanted to do something that he could look up to and could get involved with later. “I wanted to do charity

work, so I thought, ‘Let’s combine my love of super hero costumes with this.’” The League of Super Heroes officially started in February of 2013, and it caught on quickly, said Lauzon. Beginning with two members including Lauzon, the group now has 22 members from across Ottawa, not to mention two photographers, with events booked every weekend this month. The group is based on the 501st Legion, an organization of Star Wars enthusiasts who dress up as storm troopers and other villains beginning in 1997. “We are like Star Wars guys that wear capes and tights,” said Lauzon. Everyone is a volunteer, and all money collected goes to charity. “Our mission is to raise money primarily for Children’s Wish Foundation and kids charities,” said Lauzon. Last year, the group raised nearly $4,000 for the Children’s Wish Foundation. But that’s not to say Lauzon and the other league members don’t get anything out of the experience.

When Lauzon and his band of super heroes arrive at an event, “the kids are speechless,” said Lauzon, adding that adults often have a similar reaction. “It’s tough to get (kids) to pose for pictures because their mouths are wide open and they keep looking behind them (at the costumed volunteers). “Our mission is the kids,” re-iterated Lauzon. “That’s who we do this for, and when we see them like that, it’s just awesome.” It certainly has an impact, said Sue Walker, director of the eastern Ontario and Outaouais chapter of the Children’s Wish Foundation. “They’ve just been amazing,” said Walker. “They make the day for the kids. They are so excited to see them and the fact that they get to interact with them … The kids just think it’s wonderful.” Though the league has yet to participate in making a wish come true, Walker said she hopes to have them participate in a wish this July. The league is continuing to expand, with new mem-

bers being met at events and through social media, said Lauzon. But those who wish to volunteer have to submit a photo of the super hero costume they are trying to re-create, and then three pictures of themselves in the costume. Lauzon then goes over the

photos with an eye to accuracy. “We want to look just like we are off the pages of a comic book or off the silver screen,” said Lauzon. The league is accepting DC and Marvel super heroes and some villains, depending on just how scary they are.

Lauzon dresses as the 1989 Batman as well as Cyclops right out of the comics. Lauzon hopes the league continues to grow, with ambitions to open up chapters in Montreal and Toronto. He also mentioned he is on the lookout for a 1989 Batmobile.

LETTER absolutely no difference whatsoever to the outcome? What input from a resident would have changed your mind about anything today. A failed process will produce failure as a result. Who owns this process? Presumably you as chair of the committee. You likely don’t admit to a failed process (residents of Beaverbrook would disagree given today’s outcome), and so aren’t likely to fix it. If that is the case, will you please tell me who at the city I should approach with a view to process improvement in this area? Let me put it another way. Residents had no meaningful dialogue with the applicant

(despite the applicant’s claim of community consultation), and clearly no voice that the committee was interested in hearing. What changes to the process can we make so that residents of communities actually have real input, input that matters, regarding how their communities are being changed? After all, these are our communities, and after all, you are our elected officials. The favour of a helpful response, preferably one that does not involve phrases such as “positive urban design experience”, would be most appreciated. Bill Young Beaverbrook

Re: “Controversial Teron Road buildings approved,” KKS, June 12. I was one of the residents who spoke last week against the proposed re-zoning for 1131 Teron Rd. I am puzzled by a few issues, some involving the process we participated in, and wonder if you, as chair of the committee, could either answer or redirect me to the appropriate resource. Just about everyone (including yourself at one point) asked about the relief from the prescribed setbacks. I am still unclear as to why such relief was allowed, since the city planner’s response last week was “a desire for a more pedestrian feel.” I have no idea what this means, but it is intended to justify the setback relief along Teron Road. Who’s desire is it for this “pedestrian feel”? The city planners? The applicant’s? Not the community’s, that’s for sure.

onlookers that the decision was a done deal some time ago, and you were really just going through the burden of ritual in these two past meetings. What happened to openness and transparency? Did committee members read the applicant’s proposal? Did committee members read the whole of the city planner’s report, or just the conclusion? Did committee members read any of the written comments provided? So do you have an answer to the question of why any resident should waste their time presenting to the committee, given that it apparently makes

Dear Mr. Hume,

Very, very odd process. It’s almost as though no one cared what, if anything, I was saying. Based on this factual error regarding shadowing, the committee has passed a flawed report. An example of a poor process yielding a poor outcome. If all the community comments on the scale and mass not fitting with the existing community don’t alter the committee’s opinion; if all the evidence against setback relief doesn’t alter the committee’s opinion; if a statement about a factual error doesn’t even get a question -- then I have to ask: What would have changed the minds of the committee? Is there anything at all? What percentage of applications get turned down or significantly modified as a result of community feedback to the planning committee? I don’t think many, possibly none. Why then not be honest with the residents who put in the effort to speak, and tell them not to bother preparing or even showing up. Calling this community consultation is a sham, wastes our time (I took two mornings off work to come to speak, and for what?), and clearly wastes the committee members’ time. It appeared to many of us

A letter to Peter Hume, chair of the city’s planning committee.

How this can be allowed is currently beyond my understanding, when the building is promoted as fitting in with the community but somehow needing half the setback as allowed initially for neighbouring buildings. During my commentary (and previous written submissions) I mentioned that the city planner’s comment regarding “no additional shadowing...” is incorrect. This is just plain wrong. The applicant’s own submission at least acknowledges some shadowing but tries to dismiss the reported effects as minimal, avoiding the complete truth. The city planner ignores even the applicants comments and ignores the issue altogether. The winter solstice shadowing I mentioned begins with the noon drawing, and continues for the remainder of the afternoon, but there is only a noon and 4 p.m. (sunset) drawing in the submission, thereby avoiding the total shadow for the whole afternoon. I point out that the report under consideration is wrong, and I am not asked any questions or challenged on this. I find this very odd. No question to me and no question to the city planner to clarify if there is indeed an error.

Making sense of it all

ongratulations Premier Wynne. Against all the odds, the Liberals, a party long in the tooth after 11 years in office and weighed down by a long string of scandals and controversies, has once again returned to power at Queenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Park. From the outset of the election, the province seemed ripe for change. Ontarians were figuratively screaming for it, according to poll after poll. It just wasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t the type of change anyone expected. Progressive Conservatives across the province were in collective shock as they watched the election results come in on June 12 â&#x20AC;&#x201C; they expected voters to punish a party, just not their own. Few expected a Liberal majority. In the aftermath, the voters, including the pundits and journalists furiously pounding out copy to meet deadline, are left scratching their heads trying to figure out what it all means. Well, Premier, we can start with what it doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t mean. The results were not a ringing endorsement for your policies, or a thumbs up for the economic direction Ontario has been heading under 11 years of Liberal rule. Many voters question Liberal policies, such as the Green Energy Act, the decision to pay corporations to set up shop in Ontario, a bumbling strategy to

encourage industrial growth â&#x20AC;&#x201C; need we go on? Voters headed into the June election with a bad taste in their mouth after digesting the Liberalsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; latest budget proposal, which promised to add $5.7 billion in new spending while bizarrely indicating the intention to erase the deficit within three years. Keep in mind, the provincial debt has doubled under the Liberalâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s watch and the province currently operates with a massive and growing deficit. But still we are left with the question of your partyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s improbable victory. We can only conclude that this was an election about what voters didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t want. It was a complete and utter repudiation of Progressive Conservative leader Tim Hudak and was also the last election he will fight at the helm of the party. This was an election dominated by fear instead of ideas. The only party punished by the electorate was the Progressive Conservatives, strangely enough they were also the only party to admit the fact that Ontario is in bad shape economically and that cost cutting measures are needed, as well as policies to encourage manufacturing and business growth. Unfortunately, they werenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t very good at communicating the message to the electorate. Hopefully, the next election will focus on issues and policies rather than strategic voting and fear.

Peering over the fence at the worldâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s game

espite its growing popularity as a participation sport, soccer has not yet caught on as a spectator sport with North Americans. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s hard to know why that is, since soccer is No. 1 just about everywhere else in the world and the World Cup, which is underway in Brazil, rivals or perhaps even exceeds the Olympics in world interest. It may just be that we have so many other sports to interest us. We have baseball, football (the North American variety), hockey and basketball and even televised golf, which some people like to use as a sleep aid on weekend afternoons. There is racing, cars and horses. People will actually watch poker on television and there has been growth in the number of people watching wrestling and mixed martial arts. Soccer has some competition. Yet there is potential. In every neighbourhood in Ottawa, parents turn out in droves on weekday nights to watch their kids play soccer at levels ranging from four years old on up, from beginner to extremely skilled. On a sunny evening, it is pleasant occasion. Plus, there are usually snacks. You would assume that some of those kids and some of those parents would become fans of soccer, attending the games and watching

According to an article I read recently, there are actually more Canadian children involved in soccer than in hockey now. Yet this remains firmly a hockey culture. Watching beginners playing soccer, as opposed to baseball, you notice that they do so with more focus and enthusiasm. This is because soccer, at that level, is much easier to understand. You kick it that way; you stop the other kids from kicking it this way. Baseball has infinite complications.

have never heard it, look up Bob Newhartâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s comedy routine on baseball. Mr. Google will show you the way.) Of course, the subtleties of the game â&#x20AC;&#x201C; the defensive shifts and pitching strategies â&#x20AC;&#x201C; are what make baseball addictive for its fans and impenetrable to its detractors. People will tell you that nothing happens in baseball, a suggestion that amazes and distresses partisans of the game. Similarly, a baseball fan might tell you that nothing happens in soccer. Thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s no scoring, not even that many scoring chances. But watch a game with someone who really understands it and youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll realize that soccer has subtleties too, skills and strategies that are not obvious to the casual viewer. Aficionados appreciate them â&#x20AC;&#x201C; and of course there are millions of those around the world. Every sport has its subtleties, things that better-informed fans love about their game, and it is probably time to dispense with the notion that one game is superior to another. There is enough snobbery in the world without it spreading to sports.

cause an upsurge of interest in the game. In Ottawa, we now have a professional team, Ottawa Fury FC, and it should benefit from the upsurge, and perhaps cause a further upsurge itself. Meanwhile, the Toronto Blue Jays are causing all kinds of excitement in major league baseball and the Toronto Raptors gave basketball fans lots of thrills in the season just concluded. With any luck, all of these teams will stimulate some interest among kids and get them out playing. Whichever sport you like best, you have to admit this beats video games.

Be selfish and ditch your goals

just finished reading the most fantastic self-help book ever. Written by cartoonist, Scott Adams, How to Fail at Almost Everything and Still Win Big: Kind of the Story of My Life, is a reminder that even those of us with a penchant for cheese and coffee can stay slim, make decent money and have happy lives. And he suggests tossing the idea of goal-setting out the window. Tough to believe, huh? But Adams, the wealthy creator of the famous Dilbert comic strip, lays out a clear and simple formula for getting what you want out of life. In a twist, it starts with being selfish. How can that be? Adams says the most important thing you can do for yourself and the world around you is to carve out time to exercise and eat well every day, before your work, ahead of your marriage, at the expense of your family. It’s from a healthy body that we get healthy minds, and create the energy to make positive contributions to the world. It may not sound that profound. But when you see how only a humorist like Adams can lay things out, you may change your mind. Running, for example, is not his thing. “Long-distance runners are people who are born with a certain genetic gift that allows them to feel good when writing,” he writes. “... Most normal adults, including me, find running to be a little more than the most costeffective way to be bored and uncomfortable.” The book is littered with gems like that. Exercise, Adams argues,

BRYNNA LESLIE Capital Muse must be something you want to do every day to stay active: gardening, playing basketball with the kids or walking to carry out errands. If it takes willpower to do it, he notes, you will only ever find exercise frustrating and you’ll find any excuse not to do it.

,,, being mediocre at lots of things is often better than mastery of one; sometimes success comes down to pure luck ... Of course we all know people who exercise and maybe don’t seem that much more satisfied with life than we are. So how does Adams make the connection between exercise, diet and that type of success and happiness that he’s garnered as a world-famous cartoonist? With the energy of exercise and good diet behind us, Adams suggests we are generally more optimistic, something we can improve with positive daily affirmations, meditation or prayer. By focusing on

more of the things we want, Adams believes we can actually alter the universe. He has a few crackpot ideas about why this may be, but my takeaway is that, ultimately, if we’re focusing on what we want in a positive way, we’re more likely to perceive even potential failures as opportunities. And that is really the crux of his argument. Of course, all this only works if we get stop setting goals. “Goals are for losers,” says Adams explicitly. Instead, he advocates creating systems. Taking the example of exercise, if we have a goal to lose 20 pounds or reach a certain BMI, we may give it up once we reach our target. If we have a system that simply says, be active every day, we’re more likely to find something active we like to do and stick with it. Similarly in our careers, a singular goal, like becoming the CEO of a specific company, may cause us to miss opportunities along the way or suffer unintentionally from failure when we work all our lives toward that one thing and then don’t succeed. Adams advocates creating systems that allow us to achieve every day. Adams uses the example of a CEO he met early on in his own career who said he had “a system” of

always keeping an eye out for a better job, so he could take opportunities as they were presented to him. Adams also mentions Warren Buffet, who has a system of buying undervalued companies, holding onto them and then selling at an optimum time. All this may sound a little like hogwash, or even cliché. But the 2013 book was the most enlightening thing I’d read in a while. There are a number of good takeaways beyond what I’ve written here: develop a diverse skill set; being mediocre at lots of things is often better than mastery of one; sometimes success comes down to pure luck – being in the right place at the right time. At the end of the day, however, everything Adams writes in the funny way that only he can, is a reminder that we do have some control over our lots in life, and most of it comes to carefully preserving our minds and bodies to appreciate the journey.

ter Hume is quoted as saying we must have intensification everywhere, apparently his justification for stretching the interpretation of the city’s guidelines. To claim, for example, that the location is close to transit is laughable when OC Transpo is reported to say that will not occur until 2024.

I urge the Kanata Beaverbrook Community Association to challenge this plan at the Ontario Municipal Board and, although no longer a resident, am prepared to contribute substantially towards the cost of doing so.

PROVINCIAL ELECTION

Connected to your community

! E L B A L I NOW AVA LAURA MUELLER/METROLAND

People to know, places to live & go, things to try, taste or buy!

Mayor Jim Watson addresses the media following the June 12 election of a Liberal majority in Ontario.

Surprise Liberal majority good for Ottawa: mayor Laura Mueller laura.mueller@metroland.com

News - Mayor Jim Watson wasn’t expecting a majority government to be elected in the June 12 provincial election, but he said the Liberal win bodes well for the city’s major projects. “I think it’s a strong vote of encouragement and support for the City of Ottawa’s major priorities: cleaning up the Ottawa River and continuing on with our lightrail plans,” Watson said. The mayor, a former Liberal provincial cabinet minister, said he is confident the government will make good on their promises to fund those projects. “They understand cities and I’m obviously relieved to have a willing partner to continue cleaning up the Ottawa River and expanding light rail to the east, to the west and to the south.” The mayor wasn’t on board with every local Liberal proposal. He rejected an idea from re-elected Ottawa Centre MPP Yasir Naqvi to include citizen members on the city committee that makes land-use planning decisions. “To me, that’s not a workable solution,” Wat-

son said. “At the end of the day, council has to be accountable and responsible for land-use planning decisions. It becomes a pretty slippery slope as to who you put on these boards ... You could always be accused that you’re putting pro-development or antidevelopment people (on the committee).” Watson said the current planning process works “relatively well,” although there are community frustrations from time to time. At least voters can hold municipal politicians to account for their decisions by refusing to re-elect them, Watson said, which wouldn’t be the case with citizen members. The city did add citizen members to several bodies such as the transit commission and health board in this term of council, but Watson said those roles have less opportunity for bias. The Liberals haven’t been keen on another local priority: uploading the cost of maintaining highway 174 to the province. Watson said he’s like to shift that cost off the backs of Ottawa taxpayers, but it’s a lower priority than continuing the upload of social security and court costs to

the province. “My position is until that upload agreement ends in 2018 and the upload is finished, then we should start negotiating with the province for other uploads and highway 174 would be one of those locally. The mayor said the Progressive Conservatives and leader Tim Hudak made a misstep by expressing reluctance to fund the city’s light-rail plans, at least right away, Watson said. “I think Mr. Hudak misjudged the mood, not only in Ottawa but around the province, when it came to the 100,000 job cuts,” Watson said. Ottawa has seen signifi-

cant job cuts from the federal public service. “That resonated, certainly,” he said. The rural-urban political divide that was more pronounced in other regions during this election was diminished in Ottawa, Watson said. While PCs Jack MacLaren and Lisa MacLeod kept their ridings of Carleton-Mississippi Mills and Nepean-Carleton, Northumberland-Quinte West turfed a PC MPP in favour of Liberal Lou Rinaldi. “I don’t think it’s as big a divide as perhaps it was in the last election (when) the Liberals were pretty much shut out of rural Ontario,” Watson said.

PROVINCIAL ELECTION

Connected to your community

Stevens camp jubilant over Liberal majority win “I may get a new pair of boxing gloves,” said Stevens.

Continued from page 1

MacLaren also had people knocking on doors for Young. As numerous unions came out against the PCs before the election, MacLaren visited three local firehouses, speaking about the Conservatives’ plan to help balance the budget. He said the 100,000 jobs Tim Hudak said he would cut would come from attrition in administrative positions within the government. MacLaren added that 50,000 people leave the government through attrition every year – which would have seen the PCs’ goal reached within two years. “A man with a job will pay taxes. A man with no job pays no taxes,” he explained before the election results rolled in. “We’re not firing anybody. We need nurses, firemen, policemen, teachers. We’ll replace them. They’re our front-line troops.” Sarah Seang, 22, who just graduated with a bachelor of education from the University of Ottawa, hopes to get a job teaching high school. Seang was at MacLaren’s election-night party to support the PCs and her fiancé, who helped MacLaren campaign. She said she felt the

PC incumbent Jack MacLaren wins the riding of CarletonMississippi Mills but says ‘things will get worse because we’re going to have four years of Liberals who will spend our money, reduce our prosperity.’

Liberal candidate for Carleton-Mississippi Mills, Rosalyn Stevens, smiles as supporters cheer from Papa Sam’s Restaurant at her announcement to run again in the next election, after losing to Progressive Conservative incumbent Jack MacLaren on June 12.

PCs had a better plan for the province than any of the other parties. “I feel like the amount of debt we’ve been accumulating will keep going up if we continue with the Liberals,” she said. Seang said the seniority system currently used to fill teachers’ positions – which hinders new teachers from being hired – would have been abolished under the PCs. “Tim Hudak wants to change the system,” Seang said, adding principals would have more authority to choose the teachers they wanted in

their schools. As the results trickled in, the mood at MacLaren’s election party became sombre. Although everyone gathered was happy with his triumph, many were stunned when a Liberal majority was announced. “I just don’t think we can live beyond our means,” said Tim Broschuk, of Kanata. “If that’s what people voted for, that’s what they want and that’s how it is.” MacLaren, who was accompanied by his wife, Janet, and daughter, Alexis, told his supporters that the Conservatives will be ready to rebuild

the province after four more years of Liberal government. “Things will get worse because we’re going to have four years of Liberals who will spend our money, reduce our prosperity. As Conservatives, it gives us time to rebuild,” he said. “We will be tougher because it’s going to be four more years of Liberal persecution of the taxpayer of Ontario. And one day, in four years’ time, we will be ready to make Ontario strong again with strong leadership.” MacLaren won the riding in 2011 with 50 per cent of the vote – after scoring a surprise upset in the PC nomination process against thenincumbent Norm Sterling, who had served 34 years at Queen’s Park. The West Carleton farmer hails from MacLaren’s Landing on the Ottawa River where his family has lived since 1826. MacLaren is the former president of the Ontario Landowners Association and holds a degree in civil engineering from Queen’s University. LIBERAL MAJORITY

jority government. The Stevens camp was boisterous and cheery as the Liberal candidate entered Papa Sam’s Restaurant in north Kanata. Stevens said she had no illusions heading into the election. “I’ve grown up in this riding. I know the history. I knew that it was going to be a long shot and I didn’t come into this thing thinking, ‘I’m absolutely going to win this riding,’” said Stevens. “I knew that I wanted to give it my all, and that’s what I did. I am so proud of the campaign that we put on,” she said. Stevens’ campaign manager, Terry Sheldon, called Stevens’ campaign “one of the most successful campaigns we’ve run here in a long time,” pointing to a larger contingent of volunteers and suggesting there had been a shift in the entire riding, which has voted Conservative for decades. “People think it’s probably time for a change,” she said as the first polling numbers started coming in. Stevens touted the night as a victory for her party, with a majority of Liberal MPPs elected, and she pledged to run again in the next provincial election.

NDP candidate John Hansen said the riding has been badly represented by MacLaren. “I think this community is poorer with him (MacLaren) because he is not going to drive the jobs issue, he is not going to drive the local transportation issue, he is not going to drive the schools issue, he is not going to have town hall meetings,” said Hansen. MacLaren focuses on the rural economy over the tech industry, he said. “I think previous representation we had from the Conservatives in this riding was much more engaging and I don’t think we’ve got back that form of engaged representation,” said Hansen. He said fear of a PC government drove voters to the Liberal camp. “I think people were extremely concerned about Hudak and they cast their vote to the Liberals,” he said. “(Voters) knew what they didn’t want.” GREEN PARTY

The Green party saw an increase in support in this election, taking 4,614 votes, compared to 1,857 in the 2011 provincial election, a 3.9 per cent increase in their share of the riding’s vote. This will give the party lobbying leverage, said Green party candidate Andrew West. “Part of my strategy is to approach Jack at a later date and say, ‘Look, a large percentage of Carleton-Mississippi Mills did vote Green, they did listen to what I had to say. These issues are important. Now it’s up to you,’” said West. “I think if approached the right way, Jack is probably willing to listen,” he said. West said he also hopes the Liberal government will listen to the Green party since it secured 4.8 per cent of the vote across the province. Looking to the future, the first-time candidate said he will run for the Green party nomination in Carleton-Mississippi Mills again, saying he has made a commitment to the people in the riding. “The people that I’ve met here are just amazing,” he said. The Carleton-Mississippi Mills riding includes the areas of West Carleton, Stittsville, Richmond and Goulbourn, as well as Kanata and Mississippi Mills.

edge that Russia is not a popular subject in much of the world at the moment. Despite this, the group, made up of dancers from five different countries, is happy to continue to share their heritage, said Ribchinsky. “We are from Russia, Ukraine, Moldova, Uzbekistan and Latvia,” she said. “We are all connected by our love of dancing and we are proud of our heritage, and no matter what is happening, we can be friends and dance together.” The Celebrating Cultures program is run through several branches so that each one can reflect the cultures present in their areas, said St-Martin. “Each community can kind of reflect what is going on and participate in their own branch in their own way,” she said. The events are taking place during Welcoming Ottawa Week this year to compliment the Ottawa Local Immigration Partnership’s programming. Of all the events this year, the largest is at Hazeldean library on June 28, taking place from 11 a.m. to 2:30 p.m. The event will include cultural display tables, henna art and performances from several groups with members in the community,

including the Sirin Friendship Centre, the El Salvador Folkloric Dance Group, The National Capital Croatian Folklore Ensemble and the Russian dance folk ensemble “Kalinka”. Other branches participating include Blackburn Hamlet, St. Laurent, Carlingwood, Elmvale Acres, Nepean Centrepointe and Stittsville. The events can host some amazing performances, said StMartin, who said she was particularly impressed by a very young dancer at Greenboro branch past years. “This was a classical Indian dancer, and she was not even 13 years old and the seriousness with which this girl was dancing was so impressive and she had a whole room of almost 70 people just quiet and just looking at her,” said St-Martin. This year, she said she hopes the event continues to attract interested community members of various ages and cultural backgrounds. WHAT’S HAPPENING AT YOUR BRANCH

“Keeping cool is all about location”

Portable air conditioners are great for cooling when – and where – you need it most. But where you place it can affect how well it works. Avoid leaving it in direct sunlight, which can cause the unit to overwork. Your best bet is leaving it directly under a windowpane or somewhere shaded from large consumer electronics.

Kanata-based author Scott Bury is launching his book, ‘Army of Warn Soles,’ telling the story of his father-in-law who escaped a Nazi POW camp after being drafted in to the Red Army.

www.abilitystudio.ca

✃

Arts - A Ukrainian-Canadian man’s extraordinary capture and escape from the Nazis at the Second World War’s eastern front has been memorialized in a book to launch June 22. Written by Scott Bury, the book “Army of Worn Soles” recounts the experiences of the late Maurice Bury, a Canadian of Ukrainian descent who left Canada with his family to escape the depression, only to be drafted into the Red army and then captured by the Nazis. Maurice managed to escape and eventually return to Canada, where he shared his story with Bury. “Whenever I’d say, ‘Oh this is horrible,’ or complain about my job, he would say, ‘Well, you guys have it easy. When I was your age, I was in the army,’” said Bury. About 20 years ago, Bury realized his father-in-law’s stories really could fill a book.

Over the next 10 years, he would sit down with Maurice to take notes on his experiences, knowing that a story from the Second World War’s eastern front is a rarity in much of North America. “I found that, talking to people, most of them are really surprised about the basic stuff in the story: the fact that there were five times as many soldiers fighting on the eastern front than on the western front, and that’s where the bulk of Germany’s forces were concentrated,” said Bury. The state of the Soviets’ equipment was a particular surprise to Bury, and it became the basis for the book’s title. “One of the first little factoids that Maurice told me was that in the early days of the war, after the invasion,

the Red Army was so badly underequipped and unprepared that they didn’t have replacement uniforms, so when the men were marching hundreds of miles, their boots wore out,” said Bury. “Enlisted men had felt or canvas boots, and when they wore out, they had to keep going … Men would wrap newspapers around their feet to try to stay warm.” This was just one of the cruelties of the Second World War that Maurice survived, another being the Nazi’s policy of starving captured Soviet soldiers. Captured by the Germans, Maurice and the men he led as a lieutenant of an anti-tank unit nearly starved to death, but he managed to escape. The story was often difficult for Maurice to tell, said Bury. “He didn’t mind telling me how brave he was,” said Bury

with a laugh. “But you know, there is a lot of hard things that happened … I think anyone would be reluctant to talk about the actual experience of fighting and advancing on your enemy.” Over 10 years, Bury had collected enough information to tell Maurice’s story, and in the last years of his life, Maurice was able to read the story. Some of the descriptions were too vivid for his liking, recalled Bury, but the story was there, he said, and it was worth telling. Bury has been preparing the book for the public in the years since Maurice’s death, and said he is excited to officially launch the book June 22 on the anniversary of Nazi Germany’s invasion of the Soviet Union in 1941. The book will be available on Amazon and in print soon, he said.

ter apparently being T-boned, said Capt. Marc Messier, fire service spokesman. “The passenger was unable to get out so we had to do a full side removal, which basically (involves) the two doors and the centre post (of the vehicle), so we could extricate the person,” he said. “It appears as though the one vehicle was T-Boned, causing it to roll,” he said, adding that the details of the crash will be the focus of police officers. “There’s visible damage to the vehicle – that’s evident ... it obviously rolled at least once and it landed on its wheels.”

News - Two teenagers were taken to hospital Tuesday afternoon, June 17, after the sportutility vehicle they were in rolled over after being T-boned by a sedan at the corner of Eagleson Road and Cope Drive in south Kanata. Firefighters, police and paramedics raced to the scene of the collision after receiving an emergency call at 2:59 p.m. Fire crews put their hydraulic spreading and cutting tool to work to extract the passenger of the SUV after becoming trapped inside the vehicle that suffered significant damage af-

Kanata Montessori School

Our Graduates 2013 - 2014

We are very proud of our 2014 graduates. As our school continues to grow and mature we see that our graduates are leaving KMS with the skills and experiences they need to become successful adults. A Montessori education prepares students for lifeâ&#x20AC;Ś not just the next grade. Our focus on organization, respect, work ethic, critical thinking and engagement form the building blocks for success. We are proud our students test well above Canadian norms, however, we are more proud how they carry themselves, how they contribute to tasks, how they engage at a deep level, how organized they are and of course their commitment to the environment. These skills will make them the leaders of tomorrow. Congratulations to each and every graduate. We wish you all the success as you move into high school. Jonathan Robinson Principal

I started attending KMS at the age of three and am as a grade eight student. I had many great years at KMS; it feels like I am leaving behind a well-loved home. I will miss all of my friends that I have grown so close to during my time here. Part of having a lot of friends means having a lot of memories, some of my favourite memories were formed on the off-campus activities such as, the yearly Odyssey Trips and New York trips the school takes us on at the Junior High level. I also enjoyed the play that we Junior Highs put on for the school once a year.

I started at KMS in casa, or junior kindergarten, when I was 4 years old. Next year I will be going to Colonel By Secondary School for the IB (International Baccalaureate) Program. In KMS, I loved all of the different trips and experiences that we had the opportunity to go to, a few of them including the MMUN trip to New York and the Odyssey Trip. I will miss all of the friends I have made during my whole time here at KMS. I will also miss all of the good times I had at this school.

Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve been at KMS for 9 years, since I was 5 years old. Next year Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll be going to Blyth Academy. One of the most meaningful experiences I had at KMS would have to be the Odyssey trip when I was in grade 7. It was really fun and I got to learn lots of things while doing crazy activities like whitewater rafting. The thing Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m going to miss the most about KMS is the freedom to be creative with our projects and assignments.

Jâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ai commencĂŠ Ă frĂŠquenter lâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;Ă&#x2030;cole Kanata Montessori Ă lâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;Ă˘ge de trois ans et maintenant je termine ma derniĂ¨re annĂŠe comme une ĂŠtudiante de huitiĂ¨me annĂŠe. Jâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ai eu beaucoup de bonnes annĂŠes ici Ă lâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;Ă&#x2030;.K.M et câ&#x20AC;&#x2122;est comme si je laissais derriĂ¨re une maison bien-aimĂŠe. Je vais manquer tous mes amis Ă qui je me suis attachĂŠe. Avoir beaucoup dâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;amis veut dire avoir beaucoup de beaux souvenirs et quelques-uns de mes souvenirs prĂŠfĂŠrĂŠs de cette ĂŠcole se sont formĂŠs durant les activitĂŠs hors-campus comme le Voyage OdyssĂŠe et le voyage Ă New York. Jâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ai aussi aimĂŠ la piĂ¨ce de thĂŠĂ˘tre annuelle.

Jâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ai commencĂŠ Ă lâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;Ă&#x2030;cole Kanata Montessori en Casa, quand jâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;avais 4 ans.

Jâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ai aimĂŠ toutes les diffĂŠrentes activitĂŠs et les expĂŠriences Ă lâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;Ă&#x2030;cole Kanata Montessori. Nous avons eu lâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;occasion dâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;aller Ă New York pour la confĂŠrence ÂŤ ModĂ¨le Montessori Nations-Unies Âť et le voyage OdyssĂŠe Ă QuĂŠbec oĂš nous avons fait du camping pendant neuf jours. Je vais manquer tous les amis que jâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ai rencontrĂŠs durant mon sĂŠjour ici Ă lâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;Ă&#x2030;KM. Je vais aussi manquer tous les moments spĂŠciaux vĂŠcus dans cette ĂŠcole.

Je frĂŠquente lâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;Ă&#x2030;cole Kanata Montessori depuis que jâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ai 5 ans. En septembre, jâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;irai au â&#x20AC;&#x153;Blythe Academy.â&#x20AC;? Le Voyage OdyssĂŠe de 7e annĂŠe est lâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;une des meilleures expĂŠriences que jâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ai eues Ă lâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;Ă&#x2030;cole Kanata Montessori. Câ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ĂŠtait trĂ¨s amusant et jâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ai vĂŠcu beaucoup dâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;expĂŠriences et dâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;aventures oĂš jâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ai fait des activitĂŠs â&#x20AC;&#x153;follesâ&#x20AC;? comme conduire un bateau pneumatique dans les rapides. Ce que je vais manquer le plus de lâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;Ă&#x2030;cole Kanata Montessori câ&#x20AC;&#x2122;est la libertĂŠ dâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ĂŞtre crĂŠative avec mes projets.

I started at KMS at the beginning of Casa, and next year I will be going to Earl of March Second # ! $ choose one â&#x20AC;&#x153;meaningful experienceâ&#x20AC;?, as there were many. If I had to choose, though, I would pick the Odyssey Trip or the MMUN trip that we did in Junior High. I think I will probably miss the environment and general atmosphere, and my friends who I have been in a class with since grade 1.

I started at KMS in grade 6 when I was twelve years old. So far in junior high I have deeply enjoyed the open and welcoming feeling that the class gives off. The Odyssey Trip was really meaningful to me because it showed me what I could do. I also loved the play and MMUN because they let me express myself. I am attending Bell High school next year. I will miss this sincere atmosphere.

Jâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ai commencĂŠ Ă lâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;Ă&#x2030;cole Kanata Montessori en premiĂ¨re annĂŠe ÂŤ Casa Âť. Lâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;annĂŠe prochaine, jâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;irai Ă ! " de choisir un souvenir seulement parce quâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;il y en a beaucoup. Mais si je dois en choisir un, je pense que câ&#x20AC;&#x2122;est le voyage OdyssĂŠe ou le voyage ÂŤ ModĂ¨le Montessori des Nations Unies Âť que nous faisons en ÂŤ Junior High Âť. Je pense que je vais manquer lâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;atmosphĂ¨re et lâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;environnement de lâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;Ă&#x2030;KM et les amis que je connais depuis la 1Ă¨re annĂŠe.

Je suis arrivĂŠ Ă lâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;Ă&#x2030;cole Kanata Montessori en 6e annĂŠe quand jâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;avais douze ans. Jusquâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;Ă maintenant, jâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ai pronfondĂŠment apprĂŠciĂŠ lâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ouverture dâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;esprit de la classe de â&#x20AC;&#x153;Junior Highâ&#x20AC;?. Le voyage OdyssĂŠe a eu beaucoup dâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;importance pour moi et mâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;a permis de rĂŠaliser tout ce que je peux faire. Jâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ai aussi beaucoup apprĂŠciĂŠ jouer dans la piĂ¨ce de thĂŠĂ˘tre et le voyage â&#x20AC;&#x153;ModĂ¨le Montessori Nations-Unies parce que jâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ai pu mâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;exprimer. En septembre 2014, je vais frĂŠquenter lâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ĂŠcole secondaire â&#x20AC;&#x153;Bellâ&#x20AC;?. Je vais vraiment manquer lâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;atmosphĂ¨re sincĂ¨re qui est toujours prĂŠsente Ă lâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;Ă&#x2030;KM.

I started at KMS in grade 8. Next year I will be going to Holy Trinity. The most meaningful experience this year was the MMUN trip where we got to go to New York City and we also got to imitate an actual UN conference. The thing I will miss most at KMS is the open environment for working. One thing I would to add is that the environment is amazing and the educators are the best teachers Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve had.

I started going to KMS in grade 5, and I have been going to KMS for 5 years. I havenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t decided where I am going next year but it will most likely be West Carleton. My favourite experiences at KMS have been the 2 trips to New York City for the Montessori Model United Nations. What I will miss most about KMS is all my friends and how everybody in Junior High is very close.

Lâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;expĂŠrience la plus significative cette annĂŠe a ĂŠtĂŠ le voyage â&#x20AC;&#x153;ModĂ¨le Montessori Nations-Uniesâ&#x20AC;? Ă New York oĂš nous avons imitĂŠ une rĂŠelle confĂŠrence de lâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ONU. Ce que je vais manquer le plus, câ&#x20AC;&#x2122;est lâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;environnement de travail incroyable et les meilleurs professeurs de toute ma vie scolaire.

Ce qui me manquera le plus de lâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;Ă&#x2030;KM sont tous mes amis et comment tout le monde en Junior High est trĂ¨s proche.

I started my journey at KMS in Grade 5 at the age of 10, in Mrs. Robertâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s class. The most meaningful experience for me was the Odyssey Trip because I really got to know everyone and more about myself. I will miss MMUN the most. I loved all the researching and the whole the UN. I will miss KMS, and I will always remember the Odyssey Trip, the play, and New York City. Jâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ai commencĂŠ mon voyage Ă lâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;Ă&#x2030;cole Kanata Montessori en 5e annĂŠe, Ă dix ans, dans la classe de Mme Roberts. Lâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;annĂŠe prochaine, jâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;irai Ă lâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;AcadĂŠmie Blythe. Je pense que lâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;expĂŠrience la plus mĂŠmorable pour moi a ĂŠtĂŠ le voyage OdyssĂŠe parce que durant ce voyage on apprend vraiment Ă connaĂŽtre tout le monde et Ă se connaĂŽtre soi-mĂŞme.

Maggie German I transferred to Kanata Montessori School from the public system halfway through grade 7. Next year I am going to Earl of March High School.

Prom-night murder suspect may still be in Ottawa: police Erin McCracken

erin.mccracken@metroland.com

News - The prime suspect wanted for the second-degree murder of an 18-year-old St. Patrick’s High School student may still be in Ottawa, say police. “We don’t know where in Ottawa,” Const. Marc Soucy, Ottawa police spokesman said Tuesday, June 17. “There’s been some sightings, some tips and we’re going through those tips, but we’re still telling the public if they see him to call us.” This latest development comes just days after friends and family paid their respects at the funeral of murdered teen Brandon Volpi, who was stabbed to death hours after his school prom in downtown Ottawa. An Italian flag gently flapped in the pouring rain in tribute to Volpi’s Italian heritage as hundreds of mourners filed into St. Anthony’s Church in the Dalhousie neighbourhood on Friday, June 13. Several enormous bouquets of red and cream-coloured flowers were taken into the Booth Street church before pallbearers carried in Volpi’s

casket. The graduating student was stabbed to death in the early morning hours of June 7 outside Les Suites Hotel on Besserer Street in downtown Ottawa, following the Catholic school’s prom, held earlier in the evening at the National Arts Centre. Police have received several tips on the whereabouts of the Devontay Hackett, who police plan to charge with second-degree murder. They announced on June 10 that a Canada-wide warrant had been issued for his arrest after they were unable to track the high-school student following the killing. Police are focusing their manhunt for the suspect in Ottawa. Still, by issuing the Canadawide warrant, it allows them to reach out to other municipal and provincial police and the Royal Canadian Mounted Police and cast a wider net if he has fled Ottawa for another city. “There’s always information that there’s possibilities that he might be going to another city so this assists the investigators in helping to track him as well as making an arrest more efficiently and quicker,” said

Ottawa police are following up on tips from the public that Devontay Hackett, the prime suspect in the stabbing death of Brandon Volpi, may still be in Ottawa. Const. Chuck Benoit, Ottawa police spokesman. Given the number of large cities located a relatively short distance from Ottawa, such as Montreal and Toronto, suspects can easily change cities very quickly, he explained. In the wake of Volpi’s mur-

der, there was a swift outpouring of emotion on social-media channels, such as Facebook. When Hackett was named by police as the prime suspect in the case, grief quickly turned to outrage for some people. “I’m sure, from the suspect’s side of view, the knowledge

that he is wanted – because it is on social media and I’m sure he has seen it; that’s why he’s not coming out – is one of the factors that must be on his mind or shoulders at all times,” Benoit said. Police say Hackett may be armed and dangerous. “We have no knowledge that he still has or doesn’t have any weapons on his person, so we ask the public, if he is seen not to deal with him, to call 911 directly,” the spokesman said. Police have been in contact with Hackett’s parents. “I know the investigators have been in touch with the parents and they’ve been given the information, the reasons why they are looking for their son,” said Benoit. “They want justice for what happened. Having said that, I think they are co-operating.” Hackett is considered the main suspect in the case, but police are still trying to identify who he was with at the time of the fatal stabbing, said Benoit. Two large groups of young people were outside Les Suites Hotel when the crime occurred, he said, adding that students from at least two secondary schools, St. Patrick’s and St.

Pius X, had reservations to stay at the downtown hotel that night. One-hundred-and-fifty St. Patrick’s High School students had been celebrating their prom earlier in the evening. Investigators are still examining video surveillance, and continue to appeal to witnesses of the crime or anyone with information on the case to come forward. Police received an emergency call to come to the hotel at 3:35 a.m. on June 7. Classmates of Volpi’s say the graduating teen had been asked to walk a friend back to the hotel, after the friend had gotten into an altercation earlier that night. Major crime investigators believe alcohol may have been a factor in the altercation that led to Volpi’s death. A second person was also injured that night, but was treated at hospital and released. Volpi’s death is Ottawa’s third homicide of 2014. Anyone with information on Hackett’s whereabouts or the homicide investigation are urged to call the Ottawa police major crime section at 613236-1222, ext. 5493, or Crime Stoppers at 613-233-8477.

The Ottawa Student Transportation Authority will be conducting Public Consultation sessions on proposed bell time changes and new walk zone maps.

Inlet Control Devices (ICDâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s) Inlet Control Devices (ICDâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s) help to manage the ďŹ&#x201A;ow of storm water by controlling the rate in which storm water drains from the roads into the sewer system. The ICDâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s that the City of Ottawa has been installing add an extra layer of protection to the homes in our community by better managing the ďŹ&#x201A;ow of storm water. ICDâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s were just installed on the following streets: Chimo Dr, Barrow Cres, Kakulu Rd, Pickford Dr, Decarlo Gdn, Stursberg Way, Harmon Way, Hewitt Way, Vickers Way, Shearer Cres, Lombardo Dr, Millman Ct, Stratas Ct, Irwin Gate and Shatner Gate. The ICDâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s that have been installed will keep the water on the surface for a longer period of time to allow for signiďŹ cant amounts of water to drain into the sewer system at a constant rate as opposed to too much water entering the drainage system all at once. The ponding/puddles that you see on the roadways are normal and should only last for about an hour or two after the end of the rainfall. If you notice water ponding beyond a couple of hours then please call 3-1-1. I would like residents to know that one of the impacts of controlling the ďŹ&#x201A;ow of storm water mean that for a short time there will be water on the streets which is perfectly normal.

News - While dragon-boat teams are itching to take to the waters of the Rideau River this weekend, organizers of the Tim Hortons Ottawa Dragon Boat Festival are itching to welcome huge crowds. The 21st Tim Hortons Ottawa Dragon Boat Festival begins tonight, June 19, at Mooneyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Bay Park in south Ottawa. Billed as North Americaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s largest dragonboat festival and the largest free festival and festival fundraiser in the Capital region, the event will draw 5,000 paddlers on about 200 teams. The festival typically attracts between 60,000 and 80,000 people over the course of the four-day event, depending on the weather. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a great tourism event,â&#x20AC;? said John Brooman, the festivalâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s chief executive officer and president. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It has a huge economic impact on the city. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s incredibly diverse and itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a true festival,â&#x20AC;? he said of the eventâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s appeal. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s sort of become this unique little gem that we try to improve over time.â&#x20AC;?

our festival is the fact that ... thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s something for everybody. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s almost like having a childrenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s festival within a music festival within a sporting festival within a fundraiser, with a couple of other things spun in there to keep it interesting.â&#x20AC;? Organizers are also extending the festival by two hours for the first time, by offering entertainment on Sunday, June 22 until 10 p.m., rather than 8 p.m. There will also be a tiki bar and stage set up on the beach â&#x20AC;&#x201C; two components that were introduced last year for the first time and which proved very popular, said Brooman. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It creates a really nice vibe on the beach,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re pretty excited about that because it just made sense. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s one of those things where you put on a pair of pants and they fit.â&#x20AC;? The festival will once again boast a free, licensed, all-ages evening concert series starting tonight (June 19) at 6:30 p.m. and wrapping up at 10 p.m. on Sunday, June 22. But the big draw will be on the weekend when team after team take to the water in their boats to power stroke their way to the finish line. About 30 per cent of the registered teams come from out of town as far away as Florida, New York, Boston, Philadelphia, and Vancouver, Brooman said. It takes about 800 volunteers to make the festival a reality, with many of them ensuring dragon-boat teams are in the water and ready to go for the next race. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Every nine minutes, from 7 a.m. to 6 p.m., youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re turning over roughly 500 people,â&#x20AC;? Brooman said. Two years ago he and other festival staff members went out in a dragon boat for the first time, in the lead up to the festival. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I personally would love to do a race some day,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;â&#x20AC;&#x2122;Cause thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a neat feeling that we didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t understand and now, all going out that one time, we really get it. When you feel 22 people working together in absolute synergy, and that boat ... takes off, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s an incredible feeling.â&#x20AC;? The festival takes place at Mooneyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Bay Park, located at 2960 Riverside Dr. For a complete schedule of events, including entertainment and racing, visit dragonboat.net.

News - No stranger to challenge, Orléans resident Matt Weeks didn’t hesitate at the chance to form a dragon-boat team – even though he had never before stepped in a dragon boat, never mind paddled one in a race. His inspiration is close at hand. His seven-year-old daughter Hannah was born with Prader-Willi Syndrome, a rare genetic disorder in which the area of the brain that controls hunger continually sends signals that the body is starving. The syndrome is accompanied by cognitive challenges as well as low muscle tone. “They’ll eat basically to excess,” said Weeks. “Their brain is always telling them that they’re starving and that they need to eat and they’ll do whatever they can to eat.” It’s a rare disorder, and for that reason more research is needed to improve treatment options. That takes money – reason why Weeks will be paddling in the Tim Hortons Ottawa Dragon Boat Festival, which takes place June 19 to 22. “She’s a lovely, lovely child,” Weeks said of his daughter. “She’s got an attitude that makes everybody smile.” He and his teammates, who are Weeks’s colleagues at Transport Canada, will paddle to raise awareness and funds for Prader-Willi research. To enlist their support, he had to share a very personal side of his life. “That in and of itself was a big step for me to tell a whole bunch of co-workers,” he said, adding that he still sometimes gets choked up when speaking about his daughter’s condition. “But you take that energy and use it for something positive.” Funds raised through their team effort will go to the Foundation for Prader-Willi Research, the Canadian arm of an American founda-

tion, which Weeks said is a leader in funding for Prader-Willi research. A week before the race, they had almost reached their goal to generate $3,000. “Part of how we cope is trying to better the community or help the community through research,” Weeks said of himself and his wife. Most children with the syndrome are diagnosed soon after birth, due to telltale signs of extremely low muscle tone and the inability to feed properly. Hannah also shared these symptoms but they were less severe than is typical of people born with the genetic disorder. For this reason, she wasn’t diagnosed until age five after she underwent genetic testing. That’s when Weeks jumped online to educate himself about the condition. Today, they help Hannah manage her hunger, and keep her on a reduced caloric intake since her slower metabolism can’t burn off the calories as fast. Routine is also important so that Hannah knows when her next meal or snack is coming, he said. “She doesn’t have to worry about there not being food so her brain doesn’t tell her to go off and get it,” Weeks said. The Weeks family has also learned how to manage Hannah’s emotional meltdowns. The same area of the brain that controls hunger also regulates emotional control and body temperature, Weeks said. “Even if there’s like the smell of popcorn in the room, it may result in a meltdown,” he said. “If she wanted to lay her toys out in a certain way and someone moved one it would be a full-on meltdown sometimes. “That’s not typical, so it’s difficult for families to deal with on a daily basis.” While Weeks and his family have made significant inroads to help Hannah live life to the fullest, further research on Prader-Willi is needed to further improve the lives

Seminar warns senior citizens of local scams News - If it sounds too good to be true it probably is. That was the message from Ottawa Police Const. Sue Wright during a seniors seminar hosted by College Coun. Rick Chiarelli on June 11. The seminar was third in a series aimed at protecting seniors from fraudsters both at home and abroad. The material was far reaching and included tips on computer and online security to choosing a contractor for home renovations. While computer users need to be vigilant about phishing emails pretending to be banks looking for your account information, Wright said there’s a lot people can do offline as well. Wright said it’s important to keep track of your purchases when getting your credit card bill every month and to keep information safe to protect from identity theft. “Never carry your SIN card with you,” she said. “It’s the best thing to use to steal your identity.” Wright also warned about passwords – making sure they are long and varied enough – and remembering to shut off your computer when you’re done using it. “It’s fine to have a pass-

word, but if I leave my computer logged on and someone breaks in, they have access to my internet activity, maybe even my banking,” she said. It isn’t just the computer that can be a minefield. Wright warned seniors of door-to-door sales people and fundraisers.

Ottawa Neighbourhood Services will not have enough clothes this year for their clients, largely because of the false donation boxes that line streets and parking lots. She said to call police if residents are concerned about an overly aggressive salesperson. Chiarelli said there was a scam in Centrepointe one year where a contractor went around soliciting money for snow removal contracts. “He was smart about it and plowed the first foot of people’s driveways so it wasn’t a criminal offence, just a civil matter,” Chiarelli said. “Then he went back around

and apologized and asked for $200 to fix his truck.” Chiarelli said over half the people who had already given the contractor money the first time, also opted to loan him the other $200. Charity scams can be particularly damaging as well, Chiarelli said.

Council axes development discounts near transit Laura Mueller laura.mueller@metroland.com

ERIN MCCRACKEN/METROLAND

Tub of fun Riley Hubbard, 2, of Kanata, enjoys sitting in a tub of balls all by himself during Westfest on June 14. The festival celebrating art, culture and life in Westboro, spanned 10 city blocks along Richmond Road, from McRae and Berkley avenues, on June 13, 14 and 15.

AND SAVE!

News Developers shouldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t get discounts on development charges if they build close to a transit line, city council decided on June 10. College Coun. Rick Chiarelli instigated to move to reverse the planned 50 per cent discount on the part of the development charge dedicated to roads for developments near the light-rail line, O-Train and Transitway. Development charges are fees the city charges to cover the cost of installing infrastructure such as sewer pipes and roads needed to service the new homes or buildings. The province requires municipalities to update their bylaws every five years and increasing the charge is intended to cover a greater proportion of the costs associated with building new infrastructure. â&#x20AC;&#x153;When a property owner suddenly has a transit station located near their property, they have a huge windfall,â&#x20AC;? Chiarelli said, adding that the value increase is enough of a development incentive. Other councillors, including transit commission chairwoman Diane Deans, jumped on board with Chiarelliâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s idea. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The incentive weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re providing is the $2.1 billion LRT line,â&#x20AC;? she said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;That has got to be better than any 6/49 lottery going.â&#x20AC;? The last-minute change to the updated development charge bylaw caught some developers â&#x20AC;&#x201C; who are already miffed by the changes â&#x20AC;&#x201C; off guard, said John Herbert, president of the Greater Ot-

tawa Home Builders Association. â&#x20AC;&#x153;(Some of our members) were very, very surprised and some of them were hurt very badly,â&#x20AC;? Herbert said. NEW HOUSE COSTS TO RISE

Council did agree to adopt the new development charge bylaw, with a bevy of alterations relating to the cost of anticipated infrastructure projects around the city.

The Greater Ottawa Home Builders Association warned the increased charge will not only boost the cost of new homes â&#x20AC;&#x201C; it will have a ripple effect on the local economy. The increased fees would represent between three and seven per cent of the cost of a new house, up from 2.5 and six per cent, depending on the type of home and whether itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s located in an urban, suburban or rural area. That will tack about $8,000 onto the price of a new, singlefamily home in the suburbs, Herbert said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s going to take a big hit on housing affordability in Ottawa,â&#x20AC;? Herbert said. He said his group will appeal the bylaw to the Ontario Municipal Board. The Greater Ottawa Home Builders Association warned the increased charge will not

only boost the cost of new homes â&#x20AC;&#x201C; it will have a ripple effect on the local economy. Herbert suggested that â&#x20AC;&#x153;social, financial and economicâ&#x20AC;? fallout would be the result of the increased charge, including potential job losses in the construction sector as the industry slows down to meet less demand. Osgoode Coun. Doug Thompson was the lone vote against the new development charges bylaw. He echoed Herbertâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s concerns that the increase could have a cooling effect on the real estate market if buyers reject more expensive homes. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a bit of a property tax grab. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Instead of increasing taxes youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re putting the taxes on someone who builds a new home,â&#x20AC;? Thompson said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s just not right.â&#x20AC;? Weeks earlier, at a briefing to explain the new bylaw, planning committee chairman Coun. Peter Hume argued the exact opposite. He said builders and homebuyers should pay the costs of the infrastructure growth associated with their homes â&#x20AC;&#x201C; not the rest of the taxpayers in Ottawa. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Quite frankly, I donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t think itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s fair to existing taxpayers,â&#x20AC;? Hume said. Hume said one major change to developmentcharge projects is the way the city makes up for giving out exemptions to developers. Now, instead of scrambling to find the money in the cityâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s coffers when the infrastructure project must get built, the city will have to approve taxpayer money to make up the difference when it offers a development charge exemption.

Uncle Louâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s extravagant gift brings tears of joy

e could hear the horn long before we could see the car. It was a horn like no other heard in all of Renfrew County. We knew it was Uncle Lou. He usually let Mother know when he was coming, but sometimes he just arrived, like it was an everyday occurrence to drive all the way from New York just to visit us out on the farm. By the time his big black Buick pulled into the yard, driving down our long lane off Northcote Side Road, Everett had run to open the gate wide, Audrey had replaced the Eatonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s catalogue with the orange wrapping papers in the outhouse, Mother had changed her apron to one spanking clean, and the rest of us circled the yard jumping up and down like jackrabbits. Even Father had stopped whatever he was doing in the barns, and joined us, ready to greet Uncle Lou and his black Buick with the big shiny brass American eagle on the radiator. Mother, as usual, whenever her brother came from New York, was crying. It took me a long time to learn the difference between crying because you were sad or crying because you were overcome with joy. Mother was overcome with joy. Uncle Lou pulled the car up close to the back door of the house, and when he got out, he swung Mother around like she was a toy doll, and then pumped Fatherâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s hand, and then grabbed each of us into a bear hug, one that took my breath away. Uncle Lou never came empty handed. I tried not to make it look too obvious, but I couldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t help looking into the back of the car, and there were boxes upon boxes, and in the front seat were brown paper bags. I knew without a doubt he had stopped in Renfrew and bought bags of oranges, bananas, grapes,

MARY COOK Memories and a bag of lemons for Mother, all things we would never dream of adding to our Saturday morning shopping list. It was like Christmas, right in the middle of summer. I couldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t take my eyes off the back of the car, but Uncle Lou didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t seem to be in any great hurry to unload his luggage or the boxes. He did reach in and take out the bags of fruit though, which caused Mother to shed another great pile of tears. Emerson, who loved cars, was walking around and around the Buick like it was made of gold. In fact, we all thought the big eagle on the radiator was pure gold, until Uncle Lou corrected us and said it was brass. Emerson was rubbing his hand over it and making clucking sounds of approval. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Sure like that bird,â&#x20AC;? he kept saying. With his arm tight around Motherâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s waist, Uncle Lou headed into the house, and ordered the boys to unload the car. First to come out were the many boxes, some with Macyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Depart-

ment Store printed on them, others just plain boxes tied with ribbons and string. Then came Uncle Louâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s luggage. Just looking at his suitcases, all made of smooth tan cowhide, confirmed in my young mind once again that Uncle Lou had to be the richest man in all of New York. Uncle Lou also had a good memory. Without even opening the boxes, he knew exactly which one was to go to each of us. Of course for Mother there were yards of beautiful silk material, and a purse made of genuine leather in bright red. I couldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t imagine such luxury. My box held a beautiful pair of white ankle stockings, with real lace around the tops, just like Marguirite wore to Northcote School, and books -- how I loved owning my very own books. Then, all that was left was a box which Uncle Lou kept apart from all the rest. He held it under his arm, and I wondered if he had brought something by mistake because he didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t look like he was in any hurry to hand it to someone. When we were finished with opening all the wonderful gifts, Uncle Lou finally handed Mother the box from under his arm. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s for the whole family,â&#x20AC;? he said, but Mother was to open it. Mother sat down on a kitchen chair with the box in her lap. We

five children circled around her, and I could feel excitement right down to my toes. She seemed to take forever to untie the strings, and then she peered in the box, and was into the tears again. What she took out of the box almost caused the rest of us to cry along with her. There nestled in mounds of white tissue paper was a brass American eagle exactly like the one on Uncle Louâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s big black Buick, only this one was on a pedestal. Emerson, of course, wanted to hold it, but Mother had a deathgrasp on it, and she kept rubbing it with the tail of her white apron. Where to put it was the next question. Emerson, never short on ideas, thought it could be attached to the hood of the old Model T. The old Model T, missing a door, painted two different colours, and with a radiator that had to be opened every few miles to pour in more water. And so it was decided. It would sit on top of the ice box. The new ice box that Grandfather had bought from Barnettâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s in Renfrew and now

sat kitty-cornered in the kitchen. Audrey was told to take off the geranium plant, give the top a good wipe with a clean dishcloth, and when all that was done, Mother got up and as if she was laying a cornerstone at an historic building, she put the American brass eagle in the very centre of the ice box. Not a word was spoken as we stood there like mutes, admiring this new and wonderful addition to our old log house. There was some discussion about its being put on the twig table in the parlour with the Bible, but Audrey pointed out that the parlour was seldom used, and no visitor would ever see it. And so it was decided. The American Eagle, identical to the one on Uncle Louâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Buick, would have its home on our oak ice box, where it would be the first thing anyone would notice, coming in the kitchen. Yes, we all agreed. Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s where this treasure belonged, and where it stayed all the time we lived on the farm in Renfrew County.

News - Problems with the Quyon Ferry’s motors has pushed the vessel’s opening date back by another week. The delay means the pro-

working with the system.” A specialist from Toronto was scheduled to fix the issue on June 13 – the original opening day announced at the end of May – with Transport Canada coming for the final inspection Tuesday. The ferry has already passed the majority of the inspection process, with the motors being the final item to check off, McColgan said.

“If we get it up and running, and Transport Canada comes up Tuesday … for the final inspection, we’ll be running by Wednesday,” he said, adding if that doesn’t work, then he hopes to be running by Friday. He apologized for the inconvenience and thanked people for their patience with the continued delays on the ferry’s website.

The modernization project of the ferry, which travels from Fitzroy Harbour to Quyon, Que., was launched two years ago. The plan included replacing two smaller ferries, which could each carry seven vehicles, with one larger vessel capable of moving 21 vehicles – including tractor-trailers and farm equipment – at a time. When the project began,

McColgan had said there was hope the new ferry would be ready to launch in April 2013, but delays have continued to cause the date to be pushed back. The ferry dock often opens in late March or early April depending on the ice conditions. For accurate information on the opening of the Quyon Ferry, visit quyonferry.com.

Linguistic duality adds value to Canadian heritage islation received royal assent when Governor General Lord Elgin signed the controversial bill aimed at compensating individuals who had lost property during the rebellion years, among them the rebels themselves. This so enraged Anglophones, who believed treason should not be com-

News - Between 1837 and 1838, both Lower and Upper Canada rebelled against the governance and constitutional arrangements in place, particularly those that caused increasing social and economic tensions between the English and the French. This led to many grievances being brought before the British government by colonists. Champions for reform, Lafontaine and Baldwin spearheaded a reform movement, and the hard work of both men resulted in the passing of the Act of Union in 1840 and the declaration of the United Province of Canada in 1841. After Britain granted Canada “responsible government” following the 1837 and 1838 rebellions, the Government of Canada sat in St. Ann’s Market in Montréal, where important Canadian legislation was adopted. April 25, 1849 was a particularly tragic day in Canadian political history, but can also be seen as the turning point that led to Confederation. The building in Montréal that housed Parliament and government offices was burned to the ground by an angry mob of Anglophones in April 1849. The turmoil had been fueled by the Rebellion Losses Bill.

College Ward resident named 911 hero Jennifer McIntosh

jennifer.mcintosh@metroland.com

News - Nathan Lewandowski was honoured for his quick thinking during the 911 Heroes ceremony on June 10. Nathan, who lives in College Ward, called 911 after he real-

ized his cousin was choking on a watermelon. His mother, Violetta, completed the Heimlich maneuver while Nathan called 911 for help. After paramedics came to transport the 14-year-old choking victim to the hospital, Na-

than went in the ambulance to translate for his Polish-speaking cousin. That helped him stay calm and understand what procedures the paramedics were performing. “There is no way to explain how vital the first few minutes

are in an emergency, especially to a young person under the age of 12,” said Coun. Rick Chiarelli. “I commend Nathan for his important role in the rescue of Submitted his cousin and for recognizing Nathan Lewandowski and his mother Viola are the signs of an emergency,” pictured with College Ward Coun. Rick Chiarelli on Chiarelli said. June 10.

Father’s Day fishin’ Barrhaven residents Danny Frate and his 10-year-old daughter Eden Cain react to the tiny rock bass they managed to pull out of the Rideau Canal near Watson’s Mill. Frate was treated to a little fishing, breakfast earlier in the day and a lunchtime picnic under the willow tree at the mill by Eden and his wife, Andrea Cain, for Father’s Day on June 15.

Superheroes for CHEO Gatineau, Que. residents Philip Charest-Seguin, left, and his cousin Olivier Turgeon, both five years old, dressed as superheroes during the annual Children’s Hospital of Eastern Ontario Barbecue at Shefford Park in the Beacon Hill area on June 14. The goal of this year’s annual fundraiser was to generate $75,000 – the amount raised last year. The proceeds generated from beach volleyball and ultimate Frisbee team registration fees, donation boxes, ticket and beer sales as well as pledges through team sports and the family walk will go to CHEO. The event drew 1,500 people and was made possible thanks to 40 sponsors and 200 volunteers. More than $500,000 has been raised since the barbecue was first held 22 years ago.

The best class All Saints’ musical theatre students stage Grease, one of the all-time great musicals, at the high school this year. Some students at the school, especially the artistically inclined, view the school’s musical theatre course as the best class offered at the high school.

News - Objection! These students are having too much fun. The future looks bright and optimistic for all who attended the high school mock trials at the Ottawa Courthouse on May 7. Getting a taste of what it’s really like to be in a provincial courthouse with their very own case, Ms. Erskine’s

two Grade 12 law classes from All Saints Catholic High School were especially delighted with the trip. They made an exemplary performance after all of their hard work and preparation. All Saints’ Grade 12 law classes have been attending these mock trials for the past four years with great results every time. The students are given an imaginary case two weeks in advance, for which they must

KanataKourier-Standard

prepare notes and questions. The class is split into three central teams; the Crown, the defense and the victims’ lawyers. Once the teams have been established, they get to work together and prepare their arguments to try and win the mock trial and earn their desired verdict. Six schools participate and all the different teams are split into three courts in the provincial courthouse to deliver their arguments against

one another. It gives the students a real opportunity to develop their case, evaluate their arguments against other schools, and work in a professional environment. Ms. Erskine has been teaching international and Canadian law for six years at All Saints. “Both of my law classes prepared themselves extremely well in and out of the classroom for these past couple of weeks,” said

The Kanata Kourier-Standard is a proud partner in education with All Saints Catholic High School

“A student newspaper partnership promoting responsible journalism in today’s youth”

Erskine. “Everyone worked very well together in a collaborative fashion which showed how prepared they were, leading to their eventual success. I am very proud of my students.” Ms. Erskine said she was impressed with her students’ ability to take this year’s particular case, which is normally Canadian law whereas this year’s case was international.

Trials a great learning experience Continued from page 45

Their ability to make strong arguments from every angle proved their strong legal capabilities. Everything in these mock trials is fake, including the names, the country, and the situation, however the laws pertaining to the case are entirely real. “Participating in the mock trial was a unique and real experience because it gave me an accurate perception of what it would be like in a serious law position,” said Grade 12 student Sheyna McGann. McGann took Canadian law in Grade 11 and continued in Grade 12, aspiring to attend criminology followed

by law school as a part of her post-secondary education. Dylan Freitag, also a Grade 12 student, points out how much work and preparation went into the mock trials to make them into such an amazing experience. “Participating in the trials was a great learning experience and a lot more fun than initially expected,” said Freitag. “The anticipation for what the verdict would be was scary because of all the hard work we put into arguing our side of the case.” The final verdict was a successful one as All Saints won three quarters of the arguments against various other schools. Future lawyers are in our midst.

News - Students often forget how lucky they are. They complain about how early they have to wake up for school or how cold it is running to meet the bus, but a few students got to see firsthand what it’s like not having what we all take for granted. The Dominican Experience is a great opportunity for students to meet new friends, travel and experience life in a Third World country. Living with Dominican families that often don’t speak English, helped students not only experience the culture first hand but also bond and learn a lot from their Dominican families. Every year, the All Saints group brings 15 students and three teachers. “We don’t choose students to bring based on their academic

success or anything like that,” said teacher Mark Podgorski, “we like to have a good mix of different students.” “It exposes students to the third world in a controlled environment,” said library technician, and regular DR supervisor, Danielle Baillie. “There is more to learn than what’s taught in the classroom.” Throughout the week students do activities like tour Consuelo where they stay, San Pedro de Macoris, the big city nearby, and the market to see how Dominican people make a living. They also visit the poorest places in the Dominican, and spend a day in the slums of the capital Santo Domingo. Gathering in the evenings, the students share their experiences, thoughts and insights in reflection circles. But as well as experiencing, the students are helping. At first it was just a trip, but throughout the years, it has be-

come a cause. The teachers who return yearly, have developed close relationships with the families and strong bonds with that community. After the first trip, it was decided that they would start funding a school for kids aged 2-6. Named after All Saints, Todo los Santos on Batey Margarita opened a year ago and more than 40 children attend. The DR experience teachers are in regular contact with Dominican representatives throughout the year, and raise funds to help to pay for whatever costs come up. The DR Team has three fundraisers, including the cake auction and a live and silent auction. The money from the fundraisers go towards the teachers salaries, supplies for the school and hopefully this year uniforms and a dividing wall in the school.

Teachers say they want this trip to be recognized by all the members of the school, and would like to get more students involved and educated on their work in the Dominican. For example, Baillie suggested that each All Saints class could receive a backpack to fill with supplies and give to a child. “Students on this trip learn that you don’t need money or possessions to be happy,” she added. Students come home inspired, motivated and with a sense of pride knowing they helped to make a difference. “Experiencing other cultures first hand is something I will never forget,” said Grade 12 student Alexandra York. “It was a life changing experience,” said Grade 12 participant Kelsey Black. A trip that changes lives of students at both All Saints and Todo los Santos.

Robots are great, but robotics is better Sierra Duffey All Saints Spectator

News - After school hours, Room 156 becomes the liveliest place in All Saints Catholic High School. The robotics team at All Saints involves much more than computer programming and welding. The team is comprised of four groups: designing, fabrication, programming and business. In addition to the wide skill set involved, each member talks excitedly about the social aspect of the team. Team captain Gabrielle Genereux describes the best part as: “the atmosphere, people working together and obviously the cool robots.” Each of the members had a unique reason for joining. For students such as Will Prado, it required a bribe of chocolate bars, for others it was pure curiosity, and for Genereux it was the academic benefits that prompted her to join. There was however a

unanimous conclusion that robotics has influenced each of their lives far more than they had expected. The students apply a variety of both technical and social skills while making robots. Programmers and developers do the hands on work while those in design and business focus on articulating their ideas. Grade 9 student Adam Prittie said, “I learned more in six weeks of building than in 14 years of life.” Each member agrees that the skills go far beyond the classroom. “Once you join robotics, you feel compelled to be the best you can be,” said Prado, “It seeps into looking for quality in the rest of your life.” The competitions begin with a kick-off event. The teams are given an animation of what task their robots need to accomplish. This begins weeks of brainstorming, designing and building before competition day. “The competitions are

huge,” said Brandon Bates who explains some of their tube lifting, basketball shooting, and Frisbee throwing robots. These competitions take place all over North America and consist of many students, teachers and professionals in the field. Team captains Yannick Brisebois and Genereux both talk about some of the biggest challenges. Both agree the commitment is scary for younger students but fulfilling to overcome. Brisebois said there is a stigma surrounding the team. “People think all the geeks join, but it’s just not true. robotics is for anyone.” Genereux said she faces a unique challenge on the team. “I’ve gone through sprees of being the only female and it’s a little worrying sometimes.” Despite being one of the few, she assures other girls that it has never been a huge issue and that there are many females in the larger community of robotics.

The team has lifelong benefits such as an open door into careers in science, engineering and business. “(Robotics) makes you motivated to pursue these fields,” says Prado who is going into computer science in the fall. Other students have set their goals in

software engineering and mechanical engineer, fields they formed an interest in through robotics. Brisebois leaves students with the simple advice of

All Saints Spectator

News - Every year a group of students and teachers from All Saints Catholic High School gather in the heart of Ottawa at Parliament Hill, with thousands from all over the country, to march through the streets of our nation’s capital to raise awareness. The All Saints group has been attending this event since 2004 thanks to teacher and religion department head, Donna Barry, who encouraged Catholic schools to participate. “We support this cause because every individual has the right to life,” said Barry. “It’s the fundamental teaching of the Catholic Church and as a Catholic school; we value this.” Since then, the board has sponsored a bus for each high school to take students to attend. Barry believes that the March for Life is a wonderful opportunity that she recommends for young people to attend because it is a very positive and uplifting day. Stephanie Baird, a Grade 12 student, after participating for the first time in the March for Life on May 8, said, “It was really inspiring to see how many people were there.” This event raises awareness, not only about the value of life, but also an awareness of just how many people support it. “Politicians who talk about prolife issues are courageous, because

For students like Quinton Griecken, composing music is an important part of vocal class.

Calling all singers Victoria Olender All Saints Spectator

Arts - It’s no place to slack off. As her students will tell you, Ms. Van Zeeland’s vocal class is a lot more than just singing. Students from grades 9 to 12 and any level of ability can take the class from those who have never sang publicly, to those who want to tour with their band, and everyone in between. An average day in vocal class always starts off with Name That Tune, a listening exercise where students listen to one song, and write down elements of music found within that song, for example timbre, dynamics, rhythm, etc. Then it’s off to the risers to sing as a class and practice for performance tests. On

other days, musical theory or history assignments are given out. Vocal class offers “a supportive, non-judgmental environment, and it’s great for confidence-building,” said Grade 12 vocal student Calvin Tam. Tam has been singing for three years and has been taking vocal class since Grade 11. He also notes that vocal class is also a good place for beginners because the teachers and students are very encouraging and understanding, and students can improve at their own pace. “Come in with an open mind,” said Grade 11 vocal student Quinton Griecken. Vocal class is all about improving your singing, but it’s also about getting rid of your inner insecurities as a vocalist. An open mind is key when

learning with singers of all backgrounds and skill levels. The prospect of singing in front of others is daunting, but in vocal class it’s a requirement for the semester’s four vocal tests. For Tam, this is the hardest part, but also the most rewarding since it builds the confidence for him. For others, like Griecken, it’s learning to harmonize with the class during group singing practice. There are many things, too, that students love about vocal. For Heather O’Brien, it’s getting to show how far you’ve come with each performance test. Griecken loves being able to play music every day. Tam enjoys singing with the class. Though vocal requires hard work, it’s always worth the effort to become a better singer.

News - All Saints has many clubs to choose from; some are sports related or art related. But the club that intrigued me the most was the Go-Green Team -- the one responsible for reducing waste, reusing recyclable items and recycling them so that they can be put to good use. Every week students from each class bring the black or blue bins down to the janitors’ room where team members help divide paper from plastic and garbage from cans. In the past couple of years, there has been a new law established about using green bins to dispose biodegradable items. Teachers, such as Mrs. Barry, are determined to help our planet and bring green bins into their classrooms and encourage students to use them.

Staying true to original pays

Continued from page 51

On the other hand, Marvel gained great praise from movies that were both new and refreshing, but still true to their origins. Audiences flocked to these films in droves, while the box office returns for Spidey dwindled. In five films, Columbia Pictures spent just over a billion dollars and

made back about three and a half, while Marvel spent only five hundred million more to create nine movies that made an insane six billion back. The Spider-Man series hasn’t only suffered financially, but critically. While Marvel’s films have maintained their quality, Columbia Pictures’ have dropped significantly. Things started out well, with re-

view averages on the first two films resting in the high 80s and low 90s, but since the third film’s drop to the low 60s, the series never swung back up past the low 70s. During this, Marvel’s films continued to be reviewed positively, hitting the 90s and 80s several movies deep. As the numbers show, it’s not just hard-core fans that are disappointed

by Spider-Man’s inability to cross over with the Avengers. The films have suffered critically and commercially, and it’s about time Marvel Studios gets their character back and gives him the quality he deserves. Next time you go out to see a Columbia Pictures Spider-Man movie, let the money talk. Don’t see the movie, and show them you deserve better.

Shooting for Excellence in Life Shannon Reed

All Saints Spectator

News - Kaitlin Kealey, a Grade 12 student at All Saints Catholic High School, was the first Grade 9 student to ever join the yearbook club just four years ago. Since then she has worked her way up every year, dedicating her time to the yearbook club and class, to where she is now, as editor of the school’s yearbook. Her eagerness to shoot on camera began when she got her first camcorder in Grade 4 and her first DSLR camera in Grade 7. Since then she’s been looking at the world in a different perspective through the lens of a camera. With the help of Kealey’s ICT (information communications technology) SHSM (specialized high skills major) program at school, which combines a double credit of commtech with a yearbook credit and coop, she has been able to acquire many useful skills that she puts to use every day. Along with the help of her peers and these skills, Kealey and the rest of the yearbook community are able to put memories on pages. The yearbook is a consuming project, which requires many things such

as the ability to write, take great photos, create designs, make the pages and have everything relate back to the central theme. Kealey spends all of her free time working on the yearbook whether it be at the yearbook club, at home, or on her spare, hours upon hours a week to complete everything by the deadlines. “The best part of yearbook is that you get to be so close with such a tight knit group of people who have become the yearbook family,” said Kealey. “The yearbook room became a new home within the walls of All Saints, and you get to have a final product that you can hold in your hands and know that you’ve made it, and worked really hard to get to that point at the end of the year.” Kealey’s hard work has been noticed by the film industry and she has been accepted to Humber Lakeshore College for the fall of 2014 in the widespread city of Toronto where she will be studying film and media production, a program that only accepts 72 students each year. Her involvement with the yearbook throughout the years and constantly working behind the scenes has been greatly appreciated to create a masterpiece of memories to be cherished long after graduation.

I’m figuratively going to explode: student All Saints Spectator

Opinion - This is a problem in this world which is making me figuratively insane. Too many people use the word “literally” incorrectly. There are literally hundreds, nay, thousands of people who say “literally” when they mean “figuratively,” while I, and English teachers everywhere, are sobbing in response. Is it that difficult to understand that “literally” literally means accurately and truly? This means that when people say “I literally died,” they had better not have a pulse

when I check for one. “Figuratively,” on the other hand, means metaphorically, i.e. not actually what it sounds like. For example, if someone laughed so hard they could swear they died, it would be incorrect to say “I literally died of laughter,” as they are (presumably) alive while saying that. Rather, they should say “I figuratively died of laughter,” letting us know that they laughed really hard, but aren’t literally dead. People can literally get in trouble if they misuse “literally” in certain situations.

If someone was really mad at someone else, and proclaimed that they are “literally going to kill him”, red flags will figuratively pop up for a nearby police officer, and that grammar offender is literally going to be arrested. Is the repetition of the word “literally” starting to bother any of you? Good. Now you know how I feel. This word is being misused far too much. Too many people are “literally dying” when they should only be figuratively dead. This issue needs to be solved before we all figuratively drown in a sea of misunderstandings.

Behind the scenes Michaela Scolli

All Saints Spectator

News - In today’s society, it isn’t unusual for a parent to be raising a child alone, with almost no help. But what happens if these parents are teens? Either way, single parents need support and one shelter in Vanier, Ottawa has recognized this. St. Mary’s home is a shelter for young mothers as well as baby care and parenting support for dads. All Saints Catholic High School held a baby shower for St. Mary’s home, and visited the shelter in order to show community support. Students were given a tour of the shelter and met some of the youth staying there.

Bridget Mowat, a student teacher at All Saints, joined the class visit to St. Mary’s. “I believe there is a misconception about young parents, and we need to help them by showing our support.” Ms. Pleau and Miss Murphy’s classes collect donations like blankets, toys, bibs, towels and any other baby necessities. “I really think the trip is a worthwhile experience for students,” said Murphy, “it teaches them to work together as a school community to help those in need.” Brittany Caldwell, a student participant said, “These young parents are close to my age, and I can’t imagine raising a child alone. I’m excited Michaela Scolli photo to go and show my support.” The display case at All Saints is prepared for a baby shower at St. Mary’s, a shelter for young mothers.

Calvin Tam specializes in practicing and recording music right in his own home. He uses his own equipment and editing software to create ‘Like’ worthy musical covers.

From YouTube to the Stage All Saints Spectator

News - What started out as a few clicks turned into a true passion. As a Grade 12 student at All Saints Catholic High School, Calvin Albert Tam is able to share his musical talents both on social media and in his school community. Tam first learned how to play the recorder back in Grade 6. At this point however, he did not think he would really enjoy playing music, “I didn’t really like (music) at the time because I was forced to learn for a class,” Tam said. “My first real instrument was guitar because I actually wanted to learn it.” Since then Tam has learned to sing and play the piano. At school he has taken vocal classes and played in events

such as Battle of the Band and coffeehouses. He also plays the French horn and the flute with the concert band. His first inspiration came from lip syncers on YouTube. “At the time I thought ‘I want to become a professional lip syncer,” says Tam laughing, “That didn’t happen, so I tried with real music.” Even today, his most prominent influence is musicians on the video sharing site. “My biggest inspiration is people who can just take a camera, film themselves and be amazing,” said Tam listing some of his favourite musicians such as Kurt Hugo Schneider, Christina Grimmie and James Chan. He has his own YouTube channel where his fans can find his covers: youtube/calvinal-

Planked brie with blueberry chutney a tasty appetizer Lifestyle - This subtlety smoked planked Brie would be perfect as either an appetizer or as dessert. Be sure to soak a cedar plank for at least two hours before using. Preparation time: five minutes. Soaking time: two hours (cedar plank). Grilling time: 10 minutes. Serves four. Ingredients

• 45 ml (3 tbsp) packed brown sugar • 25 ml (2 tbsp) finely diced shallots or onion • 25 ml (2 tbsp) cider vinegar • 7 ml (1-1/2 tsp) finely grated fresh gingerroot • 3 whole cloves • 250 ml (1 cup) blueberries • 1 round (10 centimetre/four inch) brie cheese • crackers or sliced baguette Preparation

In a small saucepan, the combine sugar, shallots, vinegar, ginger and cloves and bring to simmer over medium

heat, stirring until reduced and syrupy – about one to two minutes. Discard the cloves. Stir in the blueberries. Transfer the mixture to a bowl or jar, cover and refrigerate until you’re ready to use (up to one day). Place the soaked cedar plank on a preheated grill over medium-high heat. Cover and grill until the plank starts to smoke and crackle, turning once, for about two to four minutes. Place the cheese on the plank, close the lid and reduce the heat to medium-low. Grill

the cheese for five minutes or until it turns just deep golden brown. Top the cheese with half of the blueberry chutney, close the lid and grill again until golden and a little puffy – about one to two minutes. Carefully remove the plank with the cheese from grill. Let it cool for one to two minutes. Place the planked cheese on platter and serve with the remaining blueberry chutney and crackers on the side.

Dog owners should pick up after their pets.

Taking care of business Sierra Duffey

All Saints Spectator

Opinion - So I was walking through the park the other day, brand new white shoes on my feet, when I stepped into a rather large pile of dog business. Man was I angry. I’ve seen kids play around in that park, run around in the grass, and I mean this stuff is everywhere. I have my own dog, a tiny little thing, but I still understand. Sometimes I’d rather not bend over and scoop up after she casually kicks dirt

over her mess. But I also understand that it’s gross, and that’s why I pick it up: so other people don’t have to see, step in, or smell that stuff. If you need any more incentive, the pet stores even sell bags that look like accessories -- neon coloured, pastel patterned, or even lavender scented. If that doesn’t make picking it up a little better, I don’t know what will. I’m on poop patrol. Now every time I see a little pile along the path, I suspiciously eye every dog owner that walks by. And I’m not the only one.

When our dogs are busy checking each other out, I am checking the owner for that telltale pop of colour to indicate one of those cute little bags. People, it’s common sense, pick up after your dog. If you want to own a dog, you take responsibility for it. Your dog poops, you take your little baggy, bend down, and throw it in the next trash can you find. Please. For the sake of the children … and my shoes. When you don’t pick up after your dog, it becomes everyone’s business.

Aries, you have had little luck regarding relationships of late. Rather than focus on what hasn’t gone your way, change your perspective and focus on the good things. Taurus, you can be pretty stubborn when it comes to something that matters dearly to you. No matter your feelings, try to behave in a diplomatic manner. Gemini, be a shoulder to cry on for a beloved friend or family member this week. Everything will ultimately work out for the best, but your loved one needs support this week.

Here’s How It Works: Sudoku puzzles are formatted as a 9x9 grid, broken down into nine 3x3 boxes. To solve a sudoku, the numbers 1 through 9 must fill each row, column and box. Each number can appear only once in each row, column and box. You can figure out the order in which the numbers will appear by using the numeric clues already provided in the boxes. The more numbers you name, the easier it gets to solve the puzzle!

Richmond

Be mindful of what you say and do this week, Cancer. Your head may be telling you to speak up, but your heart is telling you to stay quiet for a little while longer.

This weeks puzzle answers in next weeks issue

Leo, enjoy the noisiness around you this week. This extra hop in your step is refreshing and encourages you to make some bold moves that will pay off in the long run. Virgo, address an issue with a clear head this week. Your advice has been solicited, and you know how to help, but some subtlety is a good thing in this situation.

Libra, adopt an analytical approach to solve a puzzling situation at work this week. This way of looking at things is just what you need to find the right solution. Your imagination is ready to run wild this week, Scorpio. Enjoy this burst of creative energy and put it to good use. Encourage others to participate as well. Your mind is racing a mile a minute this week, Sagittarius. Things may be progressing so fast you can’t even finish one idea before moving on to the next one. Capricorn, express yourself when asked for your honest opinion this week. Keeping things close to the vest is not what people want to see, so don’t hesitate to offer your insight. Trust your intuition in a sticky situation, Aquarius. Panicking will only make the situation more complicated, so allow your instincts to take over.
