Kanata paddler takes gold at nationals Jessica Cunha
jessica.cunha@metroland.com
Kanata’s Philipe Turcanu paddled his way to three medals at the Canoe Kayak Canada Nationals in Dartmouth, N.S. last week. The 16-year-old, a member of the Ottawa River Canoe Club in Dunrobin, placed first
in the under-16 men’s single 1,000-metre event. He also finished with two bronze medals in the U16 single men’s 200 and 6,000-metre races. “I just focused on keeping it technically good,” said the Katimavik resident. See RESULTS, page 6

photo of three people and asked for the public’s help to identify them. A group of six people had a ride-sharing driver pick them up at a bar in the Centrum on Roland Michener Drive on Aug. 11
around 2:20 a.m. One member of the group became belligerent and punched the driver, then grabbed the victim’s cellphone as he fled the vehicle, said police. The other occupants also bolted.
“The three persons were interviewed by investigators. At this time no charges have been laid and the matter remains under investigation,” said police. Anyone with information regarding this robbery, or

Kanata locations no longer considered measles exposure sites Jessica Cunha
jessica.cunha@metroland.com
One of three cases of measles previously identified has tested negative for the virus, says Ottawa Public Health. Four locations identified on Sept. 3 – including two in Kanata – are no longer considered sites where people may have been exposed to the virus. “This is welcome news in our evolving investigation of the measles outbreak as it reduces the locations where measles exposure may have occurred,” said public health in a news release on Sept. 9. “We will continue to work closely with partners in protecting the community from further spread of this very contagious disease and will provide public updates as required.” The four locations that are no longer considered exposure sites are: • Kanata Superstore, 760 Eagleson Rd., Kanata • The Lone Star Restaurant,
4048 Carling Ave., Kanata • Carleton Place Hospital, 211 Lake Ave. East, Carleton Place • Carlingwood Shopping Centre, 2121 Carling Ave., Ottawa Ottawa Public Health, the Leeds, Grenville and Lanark Health Unit and Public Health Ontario determined that one of the three previously identified cases was negative for measles through further laboratory analysis. The risk of contracting measles is low for individuals who have been vaccinated. “Given that measles is highly contagious, it is very important that you ensure your and your loved ones’ measles immunizations are up-to-date,” said public health. CONTACT SITES
The two locations where people may have been exposed to the measles virus are: • Children’s Hospital of Eastern Ontario (CHEO), 401
Smyth Rd. Emergency room: Aug. 22 at 2 p.m. to Aug. 23 at 2:30 a.m. Inpatient ward 4 east: Aug. 23 (24 hours), and Aug. 25, from 8 a.m. to Aug. 28 at 8 p.m. • The Ottawa Hospital (general campus), 501 Smyth Rd. Emergency room: Aug. 23 from noon to Aug. 24 at 1 a.m. Module G: Aug. 26 from 9 a.m. to noon Measles manifests as a fever, cough and tiny white spots in the mouth. Within a few days those symptoms are followed by “a red blotchy rash” on the face and body. Those most at risk of infection include infants under age one, pregnant women and people with weakened immune systems. “The infection is more severe in adults and infants than in children and can lead to ear infections, pneumonia, swelling of the brain and even death,” said public health. People who may have been exposed to the virus and have

People who may have been exposed to the virus and have not been vaccinated or had measles previously are asked to avoid contact with high-risk individuals for 21 days following exposure. For more information about measles and immunizations, visit OttawaPublicHealth.ca or call the information line at 613580-6744 (TTY: 613-580-9656).

Wild Bird Care Centre launches fundraising campaign that comes through our door,” says Robert Burns, WBCC chair. “The task can be overwhelming at times, but our amazing staff and volunteers are dedicated and passionate when it comes to ensuring that every bird is fed, cared for and then released back into their natural habitat.” “Over the past few months we have been able to reduce our expenses, and I congratulate our staff for continuing to find innovative ways to do more with less,” adds Goguen. “The continuing growth in demand, though, means we need to grow our donor base and to develop new strategies to help ensure the Centre’s long-term financial sustainability, while continuing to provide the level of care that our community expects.” In response, the Centre is launching its “Birds of All Feathers” campaign, in recognition that our supporters come from all walks of life, “and that when we come together with a common goal we can do even more to give these birds a new lease on life,” says Burns.
Over the coming weeks the campaign will share stories of the amazing birds we have helped and the staff and volunteers who go above and beyond the call of duty to bring this essential service to Ottawa and area residents. Follow us on Facebook, Twitter and Instagram to meet many of our feathered friends and watch their recovery and release back into nature. To donate, visit www.wildbirdcarecentre.org and follow the link to our campaign website. ABOUT the CENTRE

The Ottawa Valley Wild Bird Care Centre needs your help. The National Capital Region’s only rehabilitation centre for sick, injured and orphaned wild birds has hit a funding crunch driven by the growing number of birds being brought to the Centre each year. To help deal with the shortfall, the WBCC has launched its first annual “Birds of All Feathers” fundraising campaign. This worthwhile cause began in 1981 with just one bird, an injured Rubythroated Hummingbird named Pip which was successfully rehabilitated by the late Kathy Nihei, who founded the Centre. Thirtyfive years later, the WBCC is the Ottawa region’s only organization dedicated to the care, treatment and rehabilitation of injured or orphaned wild birds. It relies almost exclusively on donations and volunteers to care for more than 2,700 birds annually, and answer more than 20,000 phone calls and emails from the public. On a regular basis throughout the year, bird lovers from as far away as Pembroke to the northwest, Kemptville to the south, and Rockland to the east, drop off birds in need of care. This spring alone has seen the arrival of a high number of birds—35% more than last year—which has put a severe strain on the Centre’s small staff. Many of these birds are orphaned babies or birds that have been struck by vehicles or attacked by feral cats or other animals. An increasing number, however, are survivors of collisions with windows, particularly those on large downtown buildings. “It’s wonderful that increased public awareness has resulted in more people finding more injured birds and bringing them to the Centre, but without additional help it is becoming an unsupportable strain on our limited resources,” says WBCC Executive Director Mireille Goguen. “With a maximum staff of just five, and low administrative overhead, the Centre has managed for many years to care for every bird

Results land Kanata paddler spot on Olympic Hopes team Continued from page 1
“I went there not really knowing what I was capable of,” said Philipe. “I got out with three medals and I can’t really ask for better.” Following his results, he was recruited to the Canoe Kayak Canada Olympic Hopes team, which will compete in Hungary this month. “Going to Olympic Hopes is just following a dream,” said Philipe, a Grade 12 student at Bell High School. “I'm looking forward to getting that experience with the national team. Being able to paddle with the best in every single country, being able to be at that level is something I've always wanted to do.” The Olympic Hopes international regatta will take place Sept. 23 to 25. “The goal is to get them
some international experience to see how they fare against the best in the world at their age level,” said LA Schmidt, founder of the Dunrobin canoe club. “We’re pretty excited for him.” Philipe has been paddling since he was eight years old and his dream includes competing at the Olympic level. “That’s my dream as an athlete; I imagine it’s a lot of peoples dreams as an athlete,” he said.

Paddle All is a canoe/kayak program for people with disabilities. “He’s racing better every time he races,” said Schmidt. The Dunrobin club had 27
athletes participate in the nationals and finished 18th out of 40 participating clubs – no small feat for a young club, said Schmidt. “It’s pretty cool. Everyone says, ‘18th, big deal’ but for us it is a big deal. Ten years ago we weren’t even going to nationals,” she said. “It’s in the top 20 and we’re a pretty small club that’s only 16
years old.” The club’s master paddlers (adults over age 25) raced in the Canadian Master Championships on Sept. 4. With 15 athletes competing, the Ottawa River Canoe Club finished sixth out of 29 clubs. “We had some great success there,” said Schmidt. “Every one of our athletes came away with a medal.”

Thursday, September 29, 2016 City Hall, Festival Board Room 110 Laurier Ave West • 6:30 to 8 p.m. Presentations by staff at 7 p.m.
Brief Background As part of the review of the City’s Official Plan in 2013, Council undertook to further review the Employment Land polices and Employment Land supply. The consultants hired to undertake that review have finalised their report and have made recommendations for changes to the City’s Official Plan. Information on this project is also available on the city website at ottawa.ca/publicconsultations. At the request of the Ontario Municipal Board the City is also reviewing the population and housing projections to the year 2036.

The Official Plan may be updated to incorporate the final projections and a 2036 planning horizon. This Open House provides an opportunity for the public to view the possible changes recommended for the Employment Lands and the proposed projections and to ask questions of City staff before these matters are considered by the Council.

Back to school means back to screens
B
ack to school at our house means back to screens. I’ve been bracing for it. When I talk to some parents, I realize my kids are among the lucky ones. Smartboards in every classroom. A unique, protected, in-board Google account associated with each student. Access to Chromebooks. All this in a public school. For the past two years, possibly more, our school has been transitioning to a paperless environment. This year, it’s for real. From kindergarten, there is to be no more pesky Duo-Tangs with songs and rhymes. For the older kids, homework is mostly accessible in Google Drive and can be completed online. There are no more letters home or signup sheets. Everything is to be done in the virtual world. All this has the potential to be great, for those of us who can access and use the Internet. But it also has the potential to increase the socio-economic divide that persists in our society and in our schools. Kids that have access, particularly on their own devices, will be able to complete their homework in a timely fashion and augment their learning with math and literacy activities online. They can type their reports, conduct research, use fancy publishing programs and impress their new technology-savvy teachers. Parents who work on computers during the day, own smartphones and generally have the time and interest to access online resources will be able to fill out forms and pay with their credit cards for school trips, milk programs and school supplies. Most families in Ottawa have Internet access at home. But there are some who don’t. Even among those with access, however, the reality of getting children online every day after school is a tricky one. It was an interesting second week of school at our house. Two kids needed to get online simultaneously during the homework hour; my daughter was chomping at the bit for me to download the songs she’s learning in junior kindergarten. We’re not device-deprived, but we have yet to become the family with two devices each. I felt like my head was spinning. How could homework get done every day with kids fighting over Internet access? And once they’re on the Internet, how do I know they’re doing their work and not messing about looking for free games or scanning the offers on Amazon? How much should I limit this interaction? I started shopping around for Chromebooks. My husband said we would be spoiling them by providing them a device. I said it was essential to
sibly contemplate purchasing a device per kid. There are those who are time pressed and will leave the kindergarten rhymes and songs in Google Drive, never to look at them, let alone print them. How much harder will it be for their kids to fully participate in their school life and community? I’m happy the school board is forward-thinking and has the money to facilitate online learning. I’m very happy that I don’t have to deal with duplicate forms and masses of paper coming through the door daily. But I’m hoping they have a back-up plan that includes some alternative forms communication, provision of time on school computers and lessons for parents and kids on how to use the tech wisely.

Opinion
Connected to your community
We’re never too old to learn
T
he city’s public school is a democratic institution. Sort of. We have Ottawa Carleton District School Board trustees – publicly elected in a democratic system – who don’t seem keen on keeping the process so democratic. There’s evidence from current and past trustees that a clique sets the agenda and determines the proper outcome of votes before the public sits down to watch the debate. One of those former trustees has suggested students and parents would be better served by a school board made up of appointed trustees. It’s an idea worth considering. The people willing to put their name on the ballot to serve as trustee are clearly committed individuals. They must all arrive at the board table wanting children to excel. But things start to fall apart quickly when the demands of different parts of the city start pulling trustees in different directions. Trustees are elected in geographic zones, and the parents in each zone have diverse expectations. Trustees are forced into parochial decisions in order to keep local parents
happy – even when those decisions are not the best thing for students across the board. Appointed trustees could instead be specialists, without the geographic push and pull. They could be selected by the province for their experience, such as the ability to run a large committee. A financial wiz could be put in charge of understanding and explaining the budget, and members with real estate and construction experience could deal with expansion plans. As it stands today, incoming trustees have to learn these skills as they go. An appointed board would not be as democratic as a public vote every four years, but then again, in the most recent municipal election, some public board trustee zones saw turnout below 36 per cent. And even among those voters, who can say they made an informed vote? The best case scenario would see the province approve a pilot project, and try an appointed school board in one municipality for one term. It could turn out well or it could be scrapped, but it’s an idea worth trying. If the goal is to give our children the best possible education, nothing should be off the table.
Seems like no one wants to stay up late these days
A
report has come out suggesting the city’s arenas are being under-used. If you understand how the city’s thought processes work, you know that no good can come out of this. Already there is talk of streamlining and consolidating and building gleaming new structures. And if you understand how city thought processes work you know what this means: the arena near you is going to be shut down and some mega multipurpose thingy is going to be put up that you’ll have to drive halfan-hour to get to. You will be able to get a latté there, though. Before we mourn, as many will, the death of that cold, dark building that smelled of hot chocolate and the cigarettes of yesteryear, it is interesting to
CHARLES GORDON Funny Town look at the reason all this will be happening. The major factor seems to be that Canadians don’t stay up late any more. According to reports in local media, the people who rent ice time don’t like to do so before 6 p.m. and they especially don’t like to do so after 9 p.m. So there is some pretty good ice time going begging and there is a hole in the parks and recreation budget where rent the money from all those late-night beer leagues used to go. It is sad to think of us as a
people who can’t stay up late to play hockey, but the trend has been heading in this direction for some time. There was a reminder last week with the announcement of the CBC’s Peter Mansbridge’s imminent retirement. This provoked a flood of reminiscences about the CBC national news, and with it a reminder that The National, as it came to be called, was shifted to 10 p.m. from 11 p.m. in 1982. The comparison with the present day is quite startling. Before 1982 Canadians, if they wanted the CBC to tell them what was going on, had to sit up past 11 p.m., even later if they wanted the local news and weather. And they did. CBC’s ratings were pretty good in those days. Nowadays there’s no need.

CBC news is on at 10 and you can get it at 9 if you want to go to the all-news CBC channel. For that matter, you can read it online a lot earlier than that and hit the hay around the time the sun sets. News junkies are not the only Canadians who seem to need their sleep. Earlier start times are the rule rather than the exception in many areas of life. Local concerts that used to start at 8 now start at 7 or 7:30. So do most theatre performances. Even on Broadway some shows now start at 7 p.m. and the others start at 8 p.m., a change from the celebrated 8:30 p.m. of yore. What does this mean? Are we more health conscious, more aware of the need to get more sleep with less beer preceding it?

It was a silver medal finish for Kanata’s Maia Barter and the under-12 Canadian synchronized swim team at the UANA Pan American Synchronized Swimming Championship on Sept. 4. The team of 10 Ontario swimmers finished just 0.6 points behind Team USA. “It was our best swim,” said Maia, a Grade7 student at Katimavik Elementary School. “It felt like it could have been a first place swim. And we were (0.6) points off from U.S.A. But that was OK because we were really happy with our swim.” The second-place win was all the sweeter because

The provincial U12 synchronized swim team takes silver at the UANA (Union Americana de Natacion) Pan American Synchronized Swimming Championship on Sept. 4. the Canadian U12 team was also Team Ontario. “They were the only province that sent an 11- to 12-year-old team so they ended up being Team Canada,” said Maia’s father Bob. “The U.S.A. team is a
national team with the best swimmers from all over country.” Both teams finished with 69 points – a full six points ahead of the third place Team Columbia. See I’M EXCITED, page 11
‘I’m excited for what will happen next’: swimmer Continued from page 10
“I was like, 'Darnit just a little bit more push and we could have gotten first place.' But I was still very, very happy,” said Maia. “The coaches, they always say if you’ve gone out there and you’ve swam your best swim that you’ve ever had it doesn’t matter what place you got because you know that in your heart that was a really awesome swim.” FIRST STEP
province. Once made, the team trained in Toronto during the month of August: four days on, one day off, for three weeks. “It was very difficult,” said Maia. “The first couple of days were pretty rough and then I got used to it. It was a lot of work but it was fun and I improved a lot of my skills.” Making the U12 provincial team was the first step on her path. Her goal is to continue to make provincials and begin
swimming nationally through her local club this year. “All the Canadian athletes, they all started by being on the 11- to 12- (year-old) provincial team,” she said. “I’m going to … try my best to make as many provincial teams as I can and then just really work my way up in nationals and see how that goes.” Her father is so proud; not just that his daughter excels but that she’s found something she’s passionate about.
“When we started off it was just one hour a week and now it turned into this crazy schedule, but she’s the one that drives it,” he said. “The main thing is she’s happy and she loves her sport. She’s found her passion.” And it seems as if this is just the beginning. “Junior Worlds would be super awesome but the Olympics would be even better,” said Maia. “I’m excited for what will happen next.”

Police charge man with 10 firearm offences in Kanata incident Staff
The Ottawa police guns and gang unit charged a 22-year-old Ottawa man with several firearms offences near the Kanata Centrum in the early morning hours of Sept. 8. Officers responded to the Roland Michener Drive area around 2:45 a.m. after a caller alerted police there was “a male with a gun making threats,” said police.

Kanata Terry Fox Run set to break $700K mark Jessica Cunha
jessica.cunha@metroland.com
Terry Fox’s legacy continues to live on with the annual Kanata run and this year’s event is set to break the $700,000 mark in funds raised for cancer research. Since 1989, the local run has raised $678,000 for the Terry Fox Foundation. “The struggle that Terry went through day-to-day running a marathon is still inspiring for a lot of people, regardless of whether they’ve had exposure to someone living with cancer,” said Michael Ward, organizer of the Kanata run. “The story of that continues to live on.” 2016 marks the 36th annual event nationally, which has brought in more than

pre-clinical work to move a vaccine towards trials in humans, according to a release from the foundation. The vaccine uses oncolytic viruses to destroy cancer cells, unlike chemotherapy which doesn’t differentiate cancer cells from healthy ones. The goal is to enable “a
cancer patient’s immune system to assist in eradicating the killer cells. The 24-month trial is expected to enrol up to 70 people with solid tumours to further test its safety and effectiveness outside the laboratory,” said the foundation. “Everyone wants to see research and a cure,” said
Ward, who’s been coordinating the run for nine years. “Raising money for research is a big part of it.” The foundation has funded more than 1,290 cancer research projects to date, and invested $26.6 million in cancer research last year. See PARTICIPANTS, page 15

Terry Fox leaves a legacy • Terry Fox was diagnosed with bone cancer in his right leg in 1977 and had his right leg amputated 15 centimetres above the knee. • While in hospital, Fox was so overcome by the suffering of other cancer patients that he decided to run across Canada to raise money for cancer research and he called his journey the Marathon of Hope. • The Marathon of Hope took place in 1980 with the simple objective of informing Canadians of the importance of finding a cure for cancer. • He ran an average of 42 kilometers every day for
143 days. Fox was forced to end his run on Sept. 1, 1980 when the cancer spread to his lungs. • By Feb. 1, 1981, Terry’s dream of raising $1 for every Canadian was realized – the Terry Fox Marathon of Hope fund totaled $24.17 million. • Fox died in June 1981. • The Terry Fox Run became a trust as a registered public foundation in 1988, independent from the Canadian Cancer Society. • The Terry Fox Foundation is responsible for supporting over $20 million in discovery-based research each year.
• The Terry Fox Research Institute, funded by the Terry Fox Foundation, brings scientists and clinicians together across the country into a functionally integrated, geographically dispersed institute with nodes in several province. • Now in its 36th year, the Terry Fox Run has evolved into the largest fundraising event in support of cancer research in the world, with events taking place in 32 countries across four continents, and with more than 9,000 runs in Canada.
Ward said he hopes to maintain the upward growth the event has seen. To register for the Kanata Terry Fox Run or for more information, visit terryfox.ca/terryfoxrun/ Kanata.

Buddy Wasisname and the Other Fellers bring east coast to Ottawa “We’ve got sketches, and tunes, and songs and recitations,” Blackmore said. “So we’re all over the map.” Many of the most iconic segments to arise from the group’s 30 years are its sketches, which give life to characters played by Blackmore, Chaulk and Johnson – like the blues playing Slewed Brothers, L’il Johnny Wimple, who recites poems, and a high-strung old couple

Newfoundland folk music fixtures Buddy Wasisname and the Other Fellas will bring a taste of the Rock to Ottawa with a performance at Centrepointe Theatre on Sept. 23. Known since the early 1980s for their catalogue of comedic and classic Atlantic Canadian folk songs, and amusing sketches featuring recurring characters, the group’s three core members – manager and founder Kevin Blackmore, Ray Johnson and Wayne Chaulk – are not strangers to Canada’s capital. Blackmore, also known as Buddy Wasisname, said the trio first performed in Ottawa in 1990, and has since developed a loyal following in the city. “Ottawa has one of the greatest audiences outside of Newfoundland for us,” Blackmore said. “It started years ago as almost a dominantly expat audience, but it’s not that anymore. It’s
using modern technology for the first time. These segments also reflect on Newfoundland culture and human nature in general, while providing a lot of laughs. “All of these things kind of span the gamut from serious songs and traditional songs through comedic songs and novelty songs,” Blackmore said, “all the way to outright foolishness in-
side of sketches.” Tickets for the show, which begins at 8 p.m., are available for $43 for the general public, $39 for seniors and students and $29 for children 12 and under, and can be purchased at centrepointetheatre.ca/ en/events_tickets/September2016/Buddy_Wasisname/ index.htm. Centrepointe Theatre is located at 101 Centrepointe Dr.

Parents defend west end schools at first public board meeting of the year Megan DeLaire mdelaire@metroland.com
The public school board’s first committee meeting of the new academic year opened to a packed house on Sept. 7, with every seat in the room filled. Parents of students attending Bell High School, Merivale High School, Sir Robert Borden High School and Woodroffe High School and their feeder schools in west Ottawa came armed with talking points, and there was a lot to talk about. Faced with addressing issues of overcrowding in some schools and under-utilization of others, staff worked through the summer to draft accommodation reviews and recommendations for the west Ottawa schools, and for Rideau High School, Gloucester High School and Colonel By Secondary School in the city’s urban east end. Those reports were released on Aug. 31, revealing a list of changes that could mean the closure of eight schools across the city, mostly in its western
neighbourhoods. The west-end study identifies 3,837 excess pupil spaces in the study area and proposed changes could reduce the excess space by 2,074. “The recommendations that are part of the staff proposed plan may include changes to grade structure within the schools, changes in program offerings, changes in school boundaries in some cases, and some school closures,” said board chair Shirley Seward during the meeting. The Sept. 7 meeting provided parents, teachers and other stakeholders with their first opportunity to publicly address the reports and their recommendations, and several came prepared to defend their neighbourhood schools. Among schools identified for potential closure are Greenbank Middle School, J. H. Putman Public School, Grant Alternative School, Century Public School and Regina Street Public School, all west Ottawa schools. And it was Regina Street Public School’s fate that con-

Every seat was filled in the public school board’s first public committee meeting of the 2016-17 school year, as parents arrived to comment on the board’s east and west area accommodation reviews. cerned most parent delegates at the meeting. “There are many reasons why I believe Regina Street Public School should stay open,” said Heather Amundrud, mother of a student at the school. “We are an accessible school, we are a walking school … and Regina Street Public School is an amazing school with an amazing community.” Amundrud presented several options the board could
consider as alternatives to closing the small school, including expanding its catchment area and adding grades 7 and 8 in order to grow the student population, minimize transitions for students and save on transportation costs. “I hope the school board will carefully consider our suggestions,” Amundrud said. “Regina Street Public School is the last community school in our area and I ask the school board to help increase our enrolment so that our
school can continue to grow and thrive.” Another mother explained how, since moving to Canada from the United Arab Emirates with her family last year, her children – also students at the school – have improved by leaps and bounds in terms of health and confidence. Enus Hosny attributed the improvements in her children’s well-being to the support offered by the school’s staff and parent community. She described the school as a community hub, both within and outside of school hours. “The change in character in my children that I have watched in the last year has led me to believe that Regina Street Public School is the most wonderful school in the world,” Hosny said. “It’s a haven for children.” One parent expressed support for staff recommendations to expand Merivale High School to include grades 7 to 12, and to add an international baccalaureate program. If the changes go through, Merivale High School, which lost a large portion of its
student population with the opening of high schools in Barrhaven, will see an influx of new students. Although the meeting was intended to address both the eastern and western area reviews, discussion surrounding the west-end proposals became the main focus, requiring staff to schedule an additional meeting for Sept. 8 in order to discuss the eastern review. “This meeting is the first meeting of the upcoming multi-year student learning and pupil accommodation planning process,” Seward said of the Sept. 7 meeting. “Over the next five years, the (board) will be conducting reviews that will cover most geographical areas within the district.” The board plans to make its final decision on the proposed eastern and western area changes in March and a new accommodation review for the Alta Vista and Hunt Club area is scheduled to start in April. -With files from Jennifer McIntosh

Young World Summit begins. Runners depart from the Shaw Centre at 7 p.m. The 5K course skirts the Rideau Canal. Registration (through www.runottawa. ca/races-and-events/run-ottawa-races/the-home-run) is $40 and is open to local Ottawa residents as well as delegates of One Young World. A portion of the funds raised by the Home Run will go to Refugee 613, a network of agencies and individuals helping refugees to start new lives in Ottawa. “Refugee 613 is the perfect recipient for the funds raised,” said Ottawa Tourism meeting sales manager Katie Dolan. “They do excellent work mobilizing local efforts to support displaced people.” There are more than 60 million people displaced from their homes, including those from Syria, Iraq, Afghanistan, Congo and elsewhere. Some of them— including the elderly, women and children—are also
stuck in the limbo of statelessness, in which they are not only uprooted but no state recognizes their citizenship. “On Sept. 27, we hope Ottawa residents will join young global leaders to run, walk, and cheer in honour of those who have travelled thousands of miles to create better futures, and those still searching for sanctuary,” said Louisa Taylor, director of Refugee 613. ABOUT REFUGEE 613
Refugee 613 is a coalition of citizens, settlement agencies, sponsorship groups and community partners working to provide refugees with the building blocks of successful integration: a warm welcome and access to key services, opportunities and support.

The Last Romance kicks off new Kanata Theatre season Everyone knows that one of the cardinal rules of the theatre is that you never go on stage with little kids or dogs. But rules are meant to be broken, and Kanata Theatre’s opening show features a dog named Peaches in an important, one might say critical role. The show is American playwright Joe DiPietro’s comedy The Last Romance. Peaches supplies the bond between two of the play’s principal characters, Ralph, played by Kanata Theatre veteran Brooke Keneford and Carol, played by Sandy Wynne. Wynne has a particular insight into the mind of a dog, having played one in Kanata Theatre’s memorable production of A. R. Gurney’s Sylvia many years ago. Recently she has been known to Kanata audiences as the director of The 39
Steps and last year’s 4000 Miles. Keneford has been a fixture on the Kanata stage for more than 40 years. It is his second appearance in a DiPietro play. In 2004 he was Frank in Over the River and Through the Woods for which Kanata Theatre received several awards at both the Eastern Ontario Drama League and the Theatre Ontario festivals. The cast of that show also included Susan Monaghan, the other contender for the attentions of Ralph in The Last Romance. Monaghan has appeared in or directed many shows for Kanata Theatre, including last February’s Cat’s Cradle. Rounding out the cast in the role of Ralph in his youth as an aspiring opera singer is Lee Powell, also familiar to Kanata audiences. The play is directed by Heather Walt who also di-
rected for Kanata Theatre Carol Shields’s Departures and Arrivals. DiPietro’s shows have been unfailing successes with both audiences and critics. His I Love You, You’re Perfect, Now Change has been an audience favourite, and his musical Memphis won him a Tony Award. Kanata Theatre’s production of The Last Romance runs Tuesday to Saturday September 20 to 24 and 27 to October 1 at the Ron Maslin Playhouse, 1 Ron Maslin Way, just off Terry Fox Drive in Walter Baker Park. Tickets are $20. The Playhouse is fully accessible and has a hearing assist system. Parking is abundant and free.

City Council considered all submissions, including submissions received after the publication of the staff report, in addition to the planning and other considerations identified in the staff report in its decision on these matters. The staff report, and the Summary of Written and Oral Submissions can be viewed as part of the supporting materials for these matters as part of the August 31, 2016 Council Agenda available on Ottawa.ca. Any person or public body who, before the by-laws were passed, made oral submissions at a public meeting or written submissions to City Council, may appeal to the Ontario Municipal Board with respect to either of the three by-laws, by filing with the Clerk of the City of Ottawa, a notice of appeal setting out the objection to the by-law and the reasons in support of the objection. An appeal must be accompanied by the Ontario Municipal Board’s prescribed fee of $300.00, which may be made in the form of a cheque payable to the Minister of Finance. A notice of appeal can be mailed to the City Clerk at 110 Laurier Avenue West, Ottawa, Ontario, K1P 1J1, or by delivering the notice in person, to Ottawa City Hall, at the Information Desk in the Rotunda on the 1st floor, 110 Laurier Avenue West. A notice of appeal must be received no later than 4:30 p.m. on October 5, 2016. Only individuals, corporations and public bodies may appeal a by-law to the Ontario Municipal Board.

The proposed amendment will affect the TM9 – Traditional Mainstreet Subzone 9, which applies to Stittsville Mainstreet. The affect of the amendment will be to remove the requirement for a maximum interior side yard setback of three metres. This setback is not in keeping with the recently-approved Stittsville Mainstreet Secondary Plan and Community Design Plan, and should not have been included in the zoning for this street. EXPLANATORY NOTE TO BY-LAW 2016-289 By-law 2016-289 amends the City of Ottawa Zoning By-law 2008-250. The amendment will introduce new zoning provisions for click and collect facilities and will affect properties city-wide. A click and collect facility is a delivery location where on-line purchases or other products may be picked up or returned by the consumer. Depending on where it is located, a click and collect facility will be permitted in a stand-alone, single-occupancy building or in another building with other permitted uses in the following commercial zones: Arterial Mainstreet; General Mixed-Use; Mixed-Use Centre; Rural Commercial; Traditional Mainstreet; Village Mixed-Use; Mixed-Use Downtown; Local Commercial; Transit-Oriented Development; and in a rapid transit network station. An amendment is also proposed to the MC zone provisions affecting South Keys Shopping Mall to permit a click and collect facility without lifting the holding symbol affecting the subject lands. Provisions regarding parking for click and collect facilities and minimum amounts of glazing are also proposed.

Jack MacLaren Member of Provincial Parliament Carleton-Mississippi Mills
Proud to Serve You It is a privilege and an honour to serve as your Member of Provincial Parliament for the great riding of Carleton-Mississippi Mills. If you are a constituent of this riding and you are faced with a problem that involves the Ontario provincial government, please note I am here to help you.
Wynne Wasting Time Kathleen Wynne prorogued the Ontario Parliament in order to start over with a new throne speech. The throne speech is meant to setup a new narrative for the Government after an embarrassing defeat in the recent by-election in Scarborough-Rouge River. After 13 years of denial, she claims the Government has to do something about the enormous cost of hydro. Although I’m open to hearing about any hydro relief the Government proposes, it’s shameful that it took a loss in Scarborough-Rouge River for this Government to act. This is the same Government that has faced five criminal investigations by the Ontario Provincial Police. It’s the same Government that has slashed health care services. It’s the same Government that has increased the public debt to $300-billion. Families and business have been struggling with exorbitant hydro costs for more than a decade. The Government’s proposal just seems too little too late.

end of 2016. The initiative, titled Housing First, was a part of the city’s 10 year housing and homelessness plan, created in 2013. Coun. Diane Deans, who is the chair of the community protective services committee, called the announcement “a significant milestone.” An Alliance to End Homelessness in Ottawa 2014 annual report indicated the average length of stay in a shelter for a client was 77 nights for individuals and 105 nights for families using emergency shelter services. The city’s 10 year plan targets emergency shelter stays to be 30 days or less by 2024. “Of course, as many of you know, there is still an awful lot of work to do here,” Watson said. “There are still people who need permanent housing and support.” There were a variety of support workers, social housing agencies, and housing rental company staff at city hall to take part in the announcement, which also included the unveiling of a painting by a former homeless artist. Glebe artist Chi Wei Lee’s painting, “Transitions”, represents the journey from homelessness to being housed. He painted 250 keys, to represent the 250 people, that the city wanted to put into permanent housing by the end of this year. It will be displayed at city hall at Jean Pigott Place.

The September meeting of the Stittsville Goulbourn Horticultural Society will be like a quick trip to England. Taking the short drive to the 7:30 p.m. meeting at the Pretty Street Community Centre in Stittsville on Tuesday evening, Sept. 20 will see you end up in North Devon, England. Now, that’s travelling at its best – quick with no airport security checks involved! While you won’t actually be leaving the Pretty Street Community Centre in body, your mind and spirit indeed will be travelling to North Devon, England as Horticultural Society member John Soar will be telling you about his visit to the Rosemoor Garden there. The Rosemoor Garden is a public display garden, one of four major gardens run by the Royal Horticultural Society. Rosemoor Garden today covers
26 hectares (65 acres) and includes a visitor centre, a library, a plant centre, a shop, a restaurant and a tea room. In 2009 Rosemoor Garden, which opened to the public in 1990, saw nearly 130,000 visitors. The garden has two very distinct areas. One area is the original garden developed by Lady Anne which is a diverse collection of plants in an informal setting. The other part of the area is the “new� garden which is a formal decorative area in a woodland setting. It was Lady Anne Berry, daughter of the late Robert Horace Walpole, the fifth Earl of Orford, who created the original eight acre garden in 1959 and developed it over the following 30 years. The garden developed in a naturalistic style with sweeping lawns and curving borders set out as the plantings expanded. For more information, please email SGHorticultural@gmail. com.

All topics will be open for discussion. Palestinian Festival I was thrilled to attend the Palestinian Festival at Marion Dewar Plaza. This three-day event featured delicious foods such as Fool (a fava bean dish) hummus, falafel, and special flat breads which were baked on the spot! There was terrific music and dancing, and even a super bazaar! We are so fortunate in Ottawa to have such a rich diversity of cultures to enjoy and celebrate. National Caucus I was very proud to participate in the first Liberal caucus retreat since the election last October. Our caucus met in the beautiful Saguenay-Lac-Saint-Jean region of Quebec to prepare for the upcoming session of Parliament which begins September 19th. The number of historic achievements made by our government, and the ambitious goals we have set to continue improving the lives of middle-class Canadians, were among the many things we talked about. Canada-China Relations Prime Minister Justin Trudeau made his first official visit as PM to China on August 30th. While there he met with government and business leaders to promote greater dialogue between Canada and China and to discuss how to bolster our shared prosperity. As the Prime Minister has said, strengthening our relationship with China is essential if we are to continue growing our middle class, since China is the world’s secondlargest economy, and our second-largest single-country trading partner. Working for and Representing Kanata-Carleton It is such an honour and privilege to serve as your Member of Parliament and I look forward to meeting and working with you all.

Fireflies became a cruel game for the brothers
T
hey were everywhere. Glowing in the dark of the night. I wasn’t frightened of them. I was frightened for them. They were the many fireflies that came out in the heat of the summer and once darkness had settled in, they flitted around, not that far from the ground ... many little glowing lights, no doubt unaware of the danger awaiting them. I was once frightened by the fireflies, but then my sister Audrey said they were simply tiny pieces of stars broken off by unseen angels and sent down to bring light in the darkness. That made perfect sense to me, and certainly eliminated any fear I had. What didn’t make sense to me and filled my veins with ice water, was how my three brothers could murder those harmless little flies. They were easy to catch, because they seemed to land on an arm, unaware of what lay in store for them. And this is when my three brothers would commit their murderous act, so that the poor creatures could no longer fly. They actually ripped the little bodies apart and put the small pieces of glowing
MARY COOK Memories light up and down their arms, until they looked like they were carrying many tiny little flashlights. Then the brothers would tear around the yard like people possessed! They would yell and laugh, enjoying their murderous acts. I covered my ears with my hands, so I couldn’t hear them and pleaded with Mother to stop their cruel acts, but that got me nowhere. I would stay in the house, praying for Mother to say it was time to get ready for bed, and avoided even looking out the kitchen window, just in case I saw what was going on in the backyard. Finally, it was bedtime. Mother went to the door, hit the wooden spoon against the tin disc that hung on a nail that was used to call ev-

eryone in for meals, and one by one the brothers headed into the house, leaving the evidence of what they had been up to outside. They were still talking about what a great night it had been when they had their glass of milk and cookie, and again, I put my hands over my ears to shut out what they were saying. Being the youngest, I was always ushered upstairs before anyone else, and Audrey was right behind me that night. She knew how upset I was, and tried to steer the conversation to something more pleasant. But nothing could erase what I had seen in the backyard. upstairs
Finally, the brothers came upstairs, and they had to pass through our bedroom, which was really a big hall, leading to their beds in the back room. Emerson, whose
mission in life seemed to be making my life miserable, came right over to where I was sitting on the side of the bed waiting for Mother to come and hear our prayers. He thrust out his arm and there were the remains of one of the murdered fireflies! Of course, it had lost its glow. Audrey gave him a poke that sent him flying and told him to get ready for bed or he would be sorry! And right then I knew what I was going to pray for. I was going to pray that the next time the brothers went out at night to catch fireflies, they would be attacked by a batch of wasps instead and, just maybe, their arms would fall off! It took me a long time to fall asleep and when I did, I dreamed of angels breaking off little pieces of stars and sending them down to our farm in Northcote where they became fireflies. And I could see my brothers trying to catch them. But they soared way above the ground, and I dreamed I could hear the fireflies laughing. Interested in an electronic version of Mary’s books?

Suspect sought in Merivale Road ATM robbery The Ottawa police is seeking the assistance of the public to identify a suspect being sought in connection to a July ATM robbery. On July 16, at about 7:20 p.m., a female victim was using an ATM at a bank situated along the 1400 block of Merivale Road, when a male entered and approached an adjacent ATM. As the victim completed her withdrawal, the male made an attempt to steal the cash. A struggle ensued and the suspect was scared off when a bank employee in-
tervened. The victim suffered minor injuries. Investigators also learned of a similar incident, at the same location on July 15, at about 10:30 p.m. A third party noticed a suspicious male loitering about as she used the ATM. She then observed this male follow a male out of the bank and then made an attempt to grab his money. That male locked himself in his vehicle and the suspect fled the area. That victim did not contact police at the time. Investigators would be interested in speaking
to him in connection to this investigation. The suspect is described as being a Caucasian male, 25 to 30 years of age, 5-foot-8 to 5-foot-10 tall, slim build, dirty blonde, shaggy hair, coming out underneath a baseball cap. Anyone with information regarding this robbery, or any other robbery, is asked to call 613-236-1222, ext. 5116. Anonymous tips can be submitted by calling Crime Stoppers toll-free at 1-800222-8477, or by downloading the Ottawa police app.

Ride for Refuge helps those in need Jessica Cunha
jessica.cunha@metroland.com
This year’s Ride for Refuge has its sights set on raising $100,000 for those who are vulnerable, displaced and exploited, including Syrian refugees and refugee claimants living in Ottawa. The event, hosted by Matthew House Ottawa, will help charities raise money for refugees, orphaned children, the homeless, human trafficking victims and others. Eighteen local charities have signed up for the Oct. 1 ride. “I really love that it’s
a group of charities that get together; most of us are smaller charities so we don’t have a lot of oomph, I suppose, out there in the world,” said Miriam Rawson, executive director of Matthew House. “Rather than putting on smaller, separate events we can get together and create some sort of synergy.” Participants are invited to join a team or create their own for one of the charities on the list. At the end of the event, every charity keeps what is raised in its name. See MATTHEW, page 30

ing refuge without government or private sponsorship. When refugee claimants arrive, they have an average of eight or nine weeks to make their claim for refugee status and have their details vetted. Matthew House offers a place to live and access to the resources necessary, alleviating considerable stress. “We exist so that, one, we can help people through that process, and two, instead of having to worry about that and worry about where are you going to live, what are you going to eat, how do you create community – we’re here for that,” said Rawson. “We’re here so that those people can come and find an immediate family.” Leonidas, a resident of Matthew House, is a refugee claimant from Burundi in East Africa. His last name is not used for his family’s safety. He was forced to flee his home without his family in fear for his life because he found himself on the wrong side of the civil war that currently ravages his country, said Rawson. See THERE, page 31

Leonidas said the support he’s received from Matthew House has helped him enormously during his first few months in Canada. “I am happy to live at Matthew House Ottawa because they have provided me with everything that I need (as) I start my new life in Canada," Leonidas said in a press release. NEED IS REAL
It’s been a slow start for fundraising this year. So far, $16,350 has been raised towards the $100,000 goal. “Don’t get weary about doing good work. I understand that there’s been a lot of publicity about refugees in the last 18 months and sometimes people can be fatigued by that,” said Rawson. “But the need is real and it’s immediate and it’s important. We’re talking about people just like us. It could be us if it weren’t
for the fact we’re so blessed to live in a country that’s at peace. “I just encourage them to try and empathize and understand there are people who genuinely need our help and support.” The Ride for Refuge is a major fundraiser for Matthew House, which also operates Furniture Bank Ottawa, a non-profit that provides gently used furniture to anyone in need, including refugees, people fleeing domestic violence, youth coming out of substance abuse treatment, and others. “Charities rely on fundraising to operate and this is one of the events that we use to do that; to raise funds to make sure we can put food on the table, that we can keep the electricity on, that we’re able to support the people that we work with,” said Rawson. EVENT DETAILS
Ride for Refuge takes place Saturday, Oct. 1, with the start and finish of all routes at the Mi-
tel building at 360 Legget Dr., Kanata. Registration takes place from 8 to 10 a.m. Opening ceremonies kick off at 8:45 a.m., and all cycling routes begin at 9 a.m. The five-km walk starts at 9:30 a.m. Snacks will be available at rest stops along the routes and a barbecue lunch is served from 10:30 to 2 p.m. Ride for Refuge takes place in cities across North America and raises funds for more than 250 charities.

Researchers look to improve newborn health Melissa Murray
mmurray@metroland.com
Local researchers have been awarded $1.2 million to help fight the leading cause of death in children under five – premature birth. According to the World Health Organization, preterm birth is one of the leading causes of death and illness in newborns around the world. With varying levels of prenatal care in developing countries, mothers don’t always know the date of conception. If the research is successful, pinprick blood tests on newborns could help developing countries identify preemies, helping doctors determine the best care for premature babies. “Our research showed how the pre-term child was metabolically different than the term child,” said Dr. Kumanan Wilson, an internal medicine specialist, senior scientist and chair in public health innovation at the Ottawa Hospital.
The researchers found the blood taken from the newborns provided a “metabolic footprint” and certain markers in the blood could help them predict gestational age within about one week. It’s predicted by the fetal-to-adult hemoglobin ratio, along with other chemicals found in the blood. The project is a collaboration between scientists from the Ottawa Hospital, the University of Ottawa and CHEO with money coming from the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation to investigate whether the blood spot model can accurately reveal the gestational age of newborns in low-income countries, including Bangladesh and Zambia. “They don’t have the same type of prenatal care that we have here,” Wilson said. “This could give them the best chance to develop appropriately.” Ideally, the research would help create a test that could be done onsite so the care provider can determine the ges-
tational age and the type of care needed. Previously, care providers would use sex and weight of a newborn to determine how premature a baby is. Wilson said there is another benefit – determining if other healthcare measures or programs are having an impact on preventing pre-term births. “We don’t know right now, so it could be a way of monitoring strategies to reduce pre-term birth,” he said. The heel prick tests are nothing new. They are already done on every child and the sample is used to test for 30 different diseases. This isn’t the first time the team has received funds from the foundation. In 2014, they received $100,000, which started the project. It involved analyzing data from more than 400,000 newborn babies in Ontario. Preemies need specialized care, Wilson said, including modified vaccination schedules and modified developmental assessments. They are

Doctors Kumanan Wilson and Pranesh Chakraborty scan blood samples from newborns to determine the child’s gestational age. Researchers from The Ottawa Hospital, CHEO and the University of Ottawa received funding from the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation to determine whether their model for predicting the gestational age of newborns will work for low-income countries. more at risk for infections, poor lung development and poor cognitive development. Wilson is hoping the tests will provide three pieces of information – on the 30 diseases that babies are screened for, the gestational age and future outcomes.
That last piece has also attracted $200,000 in funding from the Gates Foundation. “We have this blood spot at birth and we are seeing if it gives us information retrospectively on gestational age of the child, and we also want to see if it’s identifying vul-
nerable children who are at risk for infections and other bad outcomes,” he said. To determine what the blood sample can tell researchers, they’ll be going back to their Ontario data, before examining samples from other countries.

The family of the Late Aileen Barrie would like to say thank you for the expressions of love and support we received during her short illness and during the difficult time of her passing. Thank you to our families, neighbours, colleagues and friends for generously giving food, flowers, cards, phone calls and visits. We thank those that expressed their sympathies at the wake and funeral service as well as the many donations given to Partners in Caring and Grace St. Andrew’s United Church on Aileen’s behalf. We express our gratitude to Dr. Morrison for years of exceptional care and professionalism towards Aileen, as well as the care that was more recently given by Dr. Greenough, nurses and staff on the Medical Unit and Palliative care at the Arnprior Hospital. We sincerely appreciate Boyce’s Funeral Home; Lisa, Derrek, Eldon and staff, for being compassionate and making sure that our needs were met with dignity and respect. Thank you to her pallbearers, grandma would have been proud having her seven grandchildren walk her to her final resting place with grace and dignity. To Rev. Dr. Richard Hollingsworth for hospital visits as well as giving guidance and the church service, thank you, as well as to Grace St. Andrew’s United Church for providing pastoral care.

MacLaren, Donald Robert “Bob” Born June 27, 1936 in Kingston and living in Carleton Place until recently, Bob passed at the Civic Campus of the Ottawa Hospital on Thursday September 8, 2016. Dear father of Leslie (Ron Mekers) and Don (Marci Hyndman). Proud grandfather of Sean and Sonia, and a great fan of their dogs, Molly & Max. Predeceased by his sister Doris and his nephew Gordie. Survived by his sister Shirley Hayhurst and many nieces, nephews and their children and grandchildren. With his family living at a distance, Bob very much appreciated the company and support of Jim, Shirley, Percy and Diana, and Al, to name a few – we don’t know all of you, but please do know you were important to him. Bob loved a visit with a friend or family member - especially if you brought your dog, had a view of the lake, or a cold beer or black Timmy’s to sip on. Friends visited the family at the Alan R Barker Funeral Home, 19 McArthur Ave., Carleton Place on Tuesday September 13, 2016 from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. For those who wish, a donation to the Carleton Place Hospital Foundation or charity of one’s choice will be appreciated. www.barkerfh.com
Lowry, Lorne (Died September 5, 2016)
The world’s “okayest” drummer, “Ollie,” “Special Ed,” left us after a summer of health care interventions interspersed with comforting visits with family and friends. Lorne will be deeply mourned by his daughters and sons-in-laws Leanne and Sean, Morgan and Tom, and Melissa and Shawn, by his big brother Stephen and sister-in-law Marijke, and by his wife Linda and her family. His grandchildren Emma, Charlotte, Logan, Lincoln, and Aidan, and honorary grandson Keldon, will miss their Babu and his constant safety precautions. His special pet companions Kubwa, Bunsen, and Bwana are grieving too. In his role as professor at Algonquin College and as a leader in the Canadian and Ottawa chapter of the Refrigeration Service Engineers Society, Lorne mentored a generation of HRAC apprentices and technicians. Feisty and crusty to the end, Lorne passed his final nights in the compassionate care of the Palliative Suite team at the Perth hospital. The family wishes to thank the many health care professionals who cared for Lorne at the Irving Greenberg Family Cancer Centre, the Ottawa Hospital 5th Floor East, the Perth and Smiths Falls District Hospital, and at home through the CCAC. Friends visited the family at the Alan R. Barker Funeral Home, 19 McArthur Avenue, Carleton Place, on Friday, September, 9, 2016 from 2 to 4 and 6 to 8 p.m. We held a celebration of Lorne’s life while he was still here to join in the festivities and a private burial service will follow at a later date. For those who wish, memorial donations to the Ottawa Hospital Foundation or the GWM Hospital Foundation would be appreciated by the family. www.barkerfh.com

Retail businesses vote against holiday shopping in 2017 City’s finance committee won’t pursue blanket exemption application to allow all stores to remain open on statutory holidays Jessica Cunha
jessica.cunha@metroland.com
The city’s finance and economic development committee will not move forward with a pilot project to allow retail businesses citywide to open on six statutory holidays in 2017. The committee was considering applying for a blanket exemption to the province’s Retail Business Holidays Act for next year. “What my motion was trying to do was lets do the whole city as one application and just be done with it,” said Kanata South Coun. Allan Hubley, who spearheaded the idea. But after 51 per cent of respondents to a survey voted they were against opening (43 per cent) or were undecided (eight per cent), the
committee decided on Sept. 6 it would not pursue the project further. “It’s clear that businesses are not in favour of having that option, which is fine. That’s the reason you have a survey,” said Hubley. “I was doing this to try and help businesses. We thought this was an action they may like but they don’t and that’s fine. My role is to help them in whatever way I can so their businesses can be successful.” The city will continue to accept exemption applications on a per area and business basis. LOW RESPONSE

The city’s finance and economic development committee will not apply for a city-wide exemption to allow retail businesses to open on six statutory holidays - which included Canada Day - in 2017. businesses to remain open on six statutory holidays – New Year’s Eve, Family Day, Victoria Day, Cana-
da Day, Labour Day and Thanksgiving. The law permits the city to allow the exemption if
the area is within two kilometres of a tourist attraction. The Glebe is close enough to the Rideau Canal, Lansdowne Park and the Canadian Museum of Nature. At the time, Hubley said it would be unfair that businesses across the city wouldn’t have the same opportunity in 2017 when Ottawa is expected to attract thousands of tourists during the city’s 150th celebrations. He asked staff to consult with BIAs and boards of trade across the city to determine if there was interest. The survey was available from May 16 to June 22, according to the committee report. Only 190 people responded to the survey, 127 of which identified themselves as a retail establishment. A ward by ward breakdown was not available. “It’s safe to say it was a very, very low response rate,” said Hubley, who went door-to-door to the
businesses along Hazeldean Road in Kanata to promote the questionnaire. “The results would be so small out here it wouldn’t be hard to guess only a handful of businesses responded.” Results from the Ottawa Business Growth Survey, put forward by the Ottawa Chamber of Commerce, showed only 37 per cent of respondents supported an exemption in 2017 for all retail businesses. The growth survey was conducted from April 11 to May 2 with the majority of input coming from business owners, presidents and CEOs. It had 676 respondents complete at least half the survey, with 658 finishing the whole questionnaire. “Even though we’re not going to open on the designated holidays, we’re still going to be open all the other days,” said Hubley. “I hope businesses in Kanata are prepared for the influx of tourists that are expected and they all have a great year with that.”

Five Carleton University research projects receive funds Continued from page 41
The project looks at real refugee cases, including audio recordings of court proceedings, and the issues around evidence. By looking at trends in evidence, the project can find where there are deficits in the refugee system. “Then our goal is to identify those problem areas and contribute to improving or fixing the system,” Bond said. The findings are used
Dr. Corrine Motluk
to create policy documents, as well as to train support workers to help prepare refugees for their hearings. So far, 300 support workers in Canada have been trained through the program. Bond’s research began five years ago at the University of Ottawa with two part-time students. Since then, more than 75 students have been involved. “They frequently tell us how meaningful this work

is for them because they are doing this researchbased work and community-based work and can see how their work can impact communities in a direct and meaningful way,” Bond said. The money will help dozens more students have similar experiences, as Bond and other researchers mentor them and collaborate with them to achieve more results for refugees. Ontario’s Early Re-

searcher Awards Program is providing $11 million to support 79 research projects at 22 different research institutions in Ontario. “Supporting these very bright researchers, we are giving them the opportunity to develop these ideas and concepts into a practical reality that could potentially change lives,” Ottawa Centre MPP Yasir Naqvi said following the press conference. He added the research could later be commercial-
ized, leading to the creation of new jobs. Ottawa South MPP John Fraser said health care and research in his riding is akin to what the automotive industry is to Oshawa. He said the research projects receiving money from the province include advancing online security, preventing Type 2 diabetes and heart disease and more. “You’re finding innovative solutions to help improve people’s lives by
making new discoveries, finding new treatments and creating new technologies,” Fraser said. Ottawa research projects include: • Five projects at Carleton University – $486,276 • One project at CHEO’s Research Institute – $140,000 • Two projects at the Ottawa Hospital Research Institute – $280,000 • Twenty-eight projects at the University of Ottawa – $6,085,14

Six people face 91 charges in separate human trafficking investigations Megan DeLaire mdelaire@metroland.com
Separate police investigations in August and September have resulted in a total of 91 charges for six Ottawa residents arrested for human trafficking and sexual assault in Sandy Hill, Barrhaven and Wisteria Park. In the first of three investigations, two women were arrested for attempting to recruit two teenage girls into prostitution, and a man was arrested for sexual assault. Police allege the two women approached the 14- and 15-year-old girls in Sandy Hill on July 22 and offered transportation. For the next several hours, police said, the women attempted to recruit and groom the teens into prostitution. Police found the teens in an apartment in the 300 block of Gloucester Street later that day and arrested the three suspects. A 30-year-old woman is facing eight human trafficking charges, and one drug charge, a 32-year-old woman is facing six human trafficking charges and one count of uttering threats, and a 35-year-old man is facing four human traf-
ficking charges and three counts of failure to comply with judicial release. Police said they were held in custody pending bail hearings. On Sept. 2, patrol officers responded to a reported assault in Barrhaven and arrested a 27-yearold man at the scene. Police turned the investigation over to the human trafficking unit and the man was charged on Sept. 4. He faces two counts of assault, uttering threats, theft under $5,000, breach of probation and five human trafficking related charges. Police said he was held in custody pending a bail hearing. On Sept. 7, police searched a home in the 400 block of Wisteria Crescent following an investigation by the trafficking unit which began in April 2015. The two occupants – a 35-yearold man and a 33-year-old woman – were taken into custody. According to police, they are accused of operating an organized prostitution ring and are facing 29 human trafficking charges each in relation to seven adult female victims.

Councillors making the rounds to solicit budget ideas Meetings taking place in Alta Vista, Riverside South Erin McCracken
erin.mccracken@metroland.com
Have a few good ideas on how the city should spend – or even save – taxpayer dollars? The city is rolling out its 2017 budget development process, beginning with pre-budget consultations with residents. In south Ottawa there will be at least two opportunities, including in Riverside South at the Rideauview Community Centre on Oct. 5, from 7:30 to 9 p.m. Gloucester-South Nepean Coun. Michael Qaqish, Osgoode Coun. George
Darouze and Rideau-Goulbourn Coun. Scott Moffatt will be taking part in the conversation. And on Oct. 6 at the Jim Durrell Recreation Centre in Alta Vista, Alta Vista Coun. Jean Cloutier, River Coun. Riley Brockington and Gloucester-Southgate Coun. Diane Deans will be on hand for that discussion. Pre-budget public meetings are being held midSeptember to mid-October at various locales, such as Nepean, Kanata, Kinburn and Orléans. New dates may be added to the roster in the weeks to come, according to the city. For
details, visit ottawa.ca/en/ city-hall/budget-and-taxes/ budget. If you are interested in attending the budget discussions, you have some homework to do first. Read up on background information and budget resource materials at bit. ly/2cmPfE7. You can also plan a simulated municipal budget by going to ottawa. citizenbudget.com. Those residents unable to attend the meetings are invited to send an email with their budget ideas by emailing budget@ottawa.ca, or by directly contacting their city councillor.

Saunders Farm Director of Fun Mark Saunders is joined by one of the Farm’s new scary creations that will be featured during this year’s Haunting Season.
New fright site at Saunders Farm John Curry
john.curry@metroland.com
Twenty-five years now of providing Halloween-themed haunted attractions. Impressive. Halloween visitors are among the more than one million guests who have visited Saunders Farm at Munster. Popular. And now this fall
Jack and Ben, age 10
there will be a sixth Fright Site introduced. Scary but fun! This new Fright Site will be “The Big Top Fear House,” which will be open at night during Saunders Farm’s 25th Haunting Season. It is being marketed as the Farm’s most terrifying “fright site” and definitely not a place for anyone with coulrophobia.
With what, you say? Coulrophobia? Yes, that’s the fear of clowns and with the name “The Big Top Fear House,” you can guess that you’re going to experience a lot of frightening clowns on any trip through this new Fright Site. See SITE, page 50

Apple Harvest Festival
The six Fright Sites at Saunders Farm for Haunting Season will now include not only this new Big Top Fear House but also the Haunted Hayride, the Barn of Terror, Shambles, the Graveyard and Camp Slaughter. And this year the admission will allow for guests to take unlimited trips through each or all of these six Fright Sites. Talk about a great deal! It’s absolutely frightening! And you’ll have more time to enjoy these Fright Sites as Saunders Farm is extending its hours of operation on Friday and Saturday nights this year to 11 p.m. And don’t forget as well that ticket pricing for this year’s 25th Haunting Season has been simplified with significant discounts available at www.SaundersFarm.com. But this new Fright Site is only part of what Saunders Farm is doing for its 25th Haunting Season this year. To mark this milestone year, Saunders Farm is bringing in elements from Carni-
vale Lune Bleue, a 1930’s era Carnival that includes pieces featured on HBO�s Carnivale TV series. This will include a 1917 Eli Bridge No. 5 Ferris Wheel and a 1938 Allen Herschell three-abreast wooden carousel as well as other pieces from the HBO TV series that altogether will create three new attractions that you will not want to miss. This Carnival will be a family-friendly attraction for the daytime during Haunting Season at Saunders Farm. This will include rides on the carousel and Ferris Wheel as well as classic games such as a high striker. In addition, “The Big Top Fun House� (note, it’s not the Big Top Fear House that will come alive in the evenings) will be a family-friendly attraction that will feature interactive experiences suitable for a younger audience. In addition, this year there will be an expanded offering of locally produced, farm fresh foods available for visitors to the Farm during Haunting Season. This 25th anniversary Haunting Season at Saunders
Farm will run from Saturday, Sept. 24 through to Halloween itself, Monday, Oct. 31. Ticket prices and hours of operation are available on the website at www.SasundersFarm.com. The mission of Saunders on Bleeks Road in Munster is to create a space that provides fun, food and memories for everyone. Tens of thousands of guests visit the Farm each year, many during Haunting Season. Between April and September, Saudners Farm offers its Mazes Season which features the world’s largest collection of hedge mazes and labyrintghs. Mazes Season also involves birthday parties, farm camps, farm dinners, corporate events and team building sessions. During this time the Farm also hosts weddings. But it is in late September and throughout October that Saunders Farm holds its annual Haunting Season which is the city of Ottawa’s largest fall festival where visitors get to enjoy the Farm’s haunted attractions as well as live performances and farm fresh foods.

‘We really are dealing with life and death every day’: CHEO family Erin McCracken
erin.mccracken@metroland.com
Jordan Yolkowskie and Sarah Patterson know the importance of home and family. Standing in the living room of the new Minto Dream Home on Sept. 12, the couple, from Lombardy, Ont. near Smiths Falls, held a photo of their eight-month-old daughter Everley, who is currently receiving life-saving care at CHEO. “We’ve spent a total of 210 days at CHEO,” said Patterson. Their daughter was born with a rare genetic condition known as congenital central hypoventilation syndrome, which affects just 1,000 people worldwide. “She essentially stops breathing when she’s sleeping,” Patterson said of her first born, who also suffers from a seizure disorder. “It’s a struggle every day with her,” Yolkowskie said of Everley, who had to be resuscitated 17 times in a single day two weeks ago. “We really are dealing with life and death every day with her,” said Patterson. Their family’s experience is why the community’s support is needed to help
fund the work that CHEO’s medical team is doing to save the lives of thousands of children every year. For that reason, officials are hoping tickets for the CHEO Foundation’s 26th annual Dream of a Lifetime Lottery will be sold out by the Dec. 9 deadline for the third straight year. The grand prize package, which includes the Minto Dream Home at 540 Bridgeport Ave. in Manotick, is worth $1.65 million. From top to bottom, every room in the fully furnished house features unique focal pieces, ranging from big-screen televisions to a baby grand piano. The basement is designed for entertaining, complete with an indoor-outdoor serving area that leads out into a patio with a built-in barbecue. There’s a home theatre system and bar area, and the focal points in an adjoining room include a stage for aspiring musicians, guitars, a swinging chair and a rock-climbing wall. “I think if you have a party here, you’ll have a hard time getting your friends to leave,” said Brent Strachan, senior vicepresident at Minto Communities, which has been partnering to build CHEO
Erin McCracken/Metroland
Jordan Yolkowskie and Sarah Patterson, of Lombardy, Ont. near Smiths Falls, hold a photo of their eight-month-old daughter and CHEO patient Everley inside this year’s CHEO Dream Home in Manotick during the launch of the hospital’s annual lottery fundraiser on Sept. 12. Dream Homes for the past 17 years. This year’s Okanagan model home is more than 4,000 square feet, made extra special with 10-foothigh ceilings, a modern contemporary design and a curved staircase. Pale maple wood and
charcoal grey porcelain flooring and warm wood finishings bring the outdoors in, said Donna Correy, an interior designer with Ottawa-based KISS Design Group. Neutral tones throughout offer serenity, and a bounty of Canadian art
and colourful accent pieces make it a very liveable space, she said, adding the house is also the last address on the street, offering unspoiled vistas of protected green space. “We all help grow strong and healthy kids – it’s something that connects
us all to the community,” Strachan said. “For those of us who have used CHEO we are very grateful that it’s there. For those of us who haven’t used CHEO, we’re comforted knowing that it is there.” See MORE, page 57

Tradyo Turns Your Clutter Into Cash.
End of an era for upcoming Carp Fair Kelly McCarthy
kmccarthy@metroland.com Chat
The Carp Fair wouldn’t be what it is today without Joyce Trafford. For the last 27 years, Trafford has been the main driving force behind one of Carp’s most anticipated annual events. As general manager of the fair, Trafford has overseen its growth from the small agricultural gathering it once was to the massive undertaking that it is today – an event attended by more than 55,000 people each year. This year’s fair, the 153rd annual and Trafford’s last before she retires, is a fourday affair filled with all the tradition of the fair’s origins mixed with the modern joys of the midway and more. Running from Thursday, Sept. 22 through Sunday,

Sept. 25, the fair’s busy schedule is packed with attractions for all ages. The fair opens on Sept. 22 at 6 p.m. with gate admission by donation and Toonie Night at the midway. A portion of the proceeds raised on Thursday evening will be donated to two charities chosen by the fair’s presidents. Last year’s Toonie Night brought in around $5,000. On Friday, the fair opens at 9 a.m. Attractions include the Eastern Regional Clydesdale Association Show, an antique tractor parade and the dairy heifer show. Starting at 9 a.m. on Saturday, the fair boasts a miniature horse show, the 153rd Carp Fair Ceremonial Parade and a strongman competition. The fair’s final day on Sunday opens at 9 a.m. as
well. Attractions include the Ottawa Valley Commercial Horse Show, a sheep show and a heavy horse hitch show. Of course, certain popular attractions are featured on each day of the fair, including the midway, the agriculture education tent, the family tent and the President’s Choice SuperDogs show. New this year is the Ontario Foodland “Growing Forward” Farmers’ Market tent, featuring local vendors with their businesses on showcase. Every afternoon and into the evening, the Carp Fair will feature a lineup of live entertainment guaranteed to rock the stage.

Dusty
Dusty, a Bengal/ Tabby mix, was three years young on June 5. Dusty is a little rascal who lights up the lives of anyone he meets. He loves to play with his toy mice and fuzzy balls. He has a very loud meow and he lets you know when his favourite ball is trapped under the couch. You can’t leave anything small on the table because Dusty will steal it. When he isn’t playing with (or annoying) his fur siblings, Dusty can be found happily sleeping in the sunshine waiting for his fancy feast.

This week’s puzzle answers in next week’s issue
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!
