2011: The year that was

Kanata Kourier-Standard - JANUARY 05, 2012

News in review: July to December Numerous complaints against OC Transpo, the overcrowding of area elementary schools and announcements of major festivals coming to Kanata – 2011 was an eventful year. In this week’s issue, we look back over the last six months of news stories covered in the KourierStandard.

JULY • A development freeze in Kanata south and west was lifted on July 4, allowing developers to proceed with building plans.

The hold was removed after a round of upgrades was completed to the Hazeldean sewage pumping station.

• It took six hours of questions from councillors and members of the public before the east-west rail plan was passed unanimously by council on July 14.

The vision approved by council was a revised version of the $2.1-billion plan for a 12.5-kilometre LRT line, including a downtown tunnel and 13 stations.

• A violent storm collapsed the main stage at the Ottawa Bluesfest on July 17, sending thousands of people into serious panic.

The storm, which featured wind gusts of more than 95 kilometres per hour, struck just before 7:30 p.m., prematurely ending the festival. Classic rockers Cheap Trick were about 20 minutes into their set on the MBNA stage.

• The long-awaited and much-contested Terry Fox Drive extension officially opened on July 21, connecting the north and south ends of Kanata.

• It was hot enough to fry an egg on the sidewalk when the temperature soared to 47 C with the humidex on July 21, the second day of a heat wave that swept through the city.

• Around 40 residents attended an open house session on the upcoming sewer reconstruction plan for Kanata north at the Mlacak Centre on July 26, following heavy rains that flooded at least 40 homes in Beaverbrook.

The meeting announced that work would start in the fall on an overhaul of the sanitary sewer system, which many residents said they were happy to hear.

• Leaving Scotiabank Place after a big event is set to get a lot easier after the announcement of plans to build a new ramp onto Hwy. 417.

The ramp will reduce the amount of time it takes to get out of the arena’s parking lot from 17 or 18 minutes to just two minutes, said Mayor Jim Watson.

• The Hazeldean Road bridge over the Carp River was put under a microscope of inspection to determine why it sank more than expected when construction supports were removed in July.

Construction on the bridge was halted and engineers were called in to investigate the cause of the excessive deflection.

The bridge was officially opened on Oct. 31.

AUGUST

• Victims of the 2009 rainstorm that flooded more than 1,500 homes in the city’s west-end filed a $1.5-million lawsuit against the City of Ottawa.

The lawsuit alleged the municipality was negligent in the design and maintenance of the city’s sewer system and failed to protect homeowners from sewage spills.

• It was announced in July that the 2012 Juno Awards will be held at Scotiabank Place on April 1, 2012. The event is expected to inject $5.3 million into the local economy.

A heat wave swept the city in July. Many families took refuge at the free splash pads throughout the community.

• William Commanda, an Algonquin and spiritual elder, passed away during the early morning hours on Aug. 3, at the age of 97.

His funeral, which took place on Aug. 5, commenced a three-day gathering of the Circle of All Nations, founded by Commanda with a focus on sacred places. The annual event, which takes place at his home, is a gathering to promote environmental stewardship and respect for the land.

• In the wake of layoffs from Smart Technologies in Kanata, 18 workers celebrated after winning the lottery.

The group won over $7 million in the Lotto 6/49 jackpot on Aug. 10, just a day after the company issued a notice of massive layoffs. At least 10 in the winning group had received pink slips before learning of their big cash windfall.

Holy Trinity Catholic High School students raised over $35,000 for the Terry Fox Foundation during its run on Sept. 28.

• The Kanata Kourier-Standard ran a special feature on a 22-year-old woman named Meaghan Pearson on Aug. 25.

Meaghan had been diagnosed rhabdomyosarcoma, a rare and aggressive form of cancer, and the doctors had given her a month to live. She shared her story of hope, and of living every day as if was the last. She had a message: “It’s not what’s been taken from you, it’s what you do with what you have left.”

The following day, on Aug. 26, Meaghan passed away in her mother’s arms.

Hundreds of family and friends gathered during a funeral service held on Aug. 29.

by the Progressive Conservative Party in Carleton-Mississippi Mills was “disgraceful,” said former Ontario premier Ernie Eves on Aug. 25.

“The treatment that Norm got from his own party was not very polite, was not fair, it was not loyal, it was not compassionate and it was not very honest,” said Eves.

Sterling, who served as MPP for 34 years, lost a bitter nomination battle for the Carleton-Mississippi Mills riding at Scotiabank Place on March 31 to Ontario Landowners activist and farmer Jack MacLaren.

• Toronto company Bondfield Construction was awarded the tender for the new Kanata North recreation centre in September.

OCTOBER • More than 200 participants packed several rooms at city hall for the Mayor’s Seniors Summit on Oct. 3.

The city wanted to know how it can best align its services to be ready for a wave of aging seniors in the coming years.

• Progressive Conservative Jack MacLaren was declared the winner of the Carleton-Mississippi Mills Riding on Oct. 6.

Liberal candidate Megan Cornell put on a brave face after losing to MacLaren. Liberal party leader Dalton McGuinty managed to secure a third term as premier in Ontario following the provincial election, winning a 53seat minority, only one seat short of his coveted third majority.

• Fifteen-year-old Jamie Hubley, the son of Kanata South Coun. Allan Hubley, and Wendy Barber and the brother of Christine Leigh and Joshua, took his own life on Oct. 15 after struggling with being bullied for his sexual preference and dealing with a deepening depression.

Hubley spoke out about his son’s suicide on Oct. 17 saying his “beautiful boy” was a compassionate, talented child who struggled with depression and bullying over his sexuality before

he took his own life.

Jamie was receiving counselling and treatment at CHEO for depression, said Hubley.

A large and very solemn crowd attended the funeral service for Jamie, held at Holy Redeemer Catholic Church, on Oct. 20.

• Torstar Corporation announced on Oct. 17 that its subsidiary, Metroland Media Group Ltd., acquired Performance Printing Ltd. of Smiths Falls, Ontario for $22.5 million.

• Parents gathered at A.Y. Jackson Secondary School on Oct. 18, and at Earl of March Secondary School on Oct. 20, to listen to a list of options for reducing overcrowding at schools.

The Accommodation Review Committees for Kanata south and north offered possible solutions for schools in both areas.

• The Hazeldean branch of the Ottawa Public Library celebrated its 30th anniversary on Oct. 22. The celebrations included a $500,000 renovations announcement for the library. The overhaul is set to start in January.

NOVEMBER • A 20-year-old Beaverbrook man sought a formal apology from an OC Transpo bus driver who allegedly unleashed a stream of verbal abuse at him during a bus ride on Nov. 3.

The incident was filmed by another passenger using his iPhone camera and posted on YouTube.

The passenger, Matthew Taronno, a scriptwriting student at Algonquin College, said he is willing to admit he may have offended the driver by reading aloud from a script he had written – that had no foul language but dis-

cussed public nudity – during the bus ride.

OC Transpo then fired the bus driver who berated Tarrano, who described himself as “mildly autistic.” The announcement was made in an email to city councillors on Nov. 14.

• Another OC Transpo bus driver was criticized for making rude comments after ending his run near a field in Bridlewood and ordering his passengers off the bus on Nov. 16.

Connor Gore, a 16-year-old Bridlewood teen, was travelling home from work on a Route 164 bus, when the vehicle stopped on Hope Side Road. The driver said it was the last stop and everybody had to get off.

Gary Queale, president of Amalgamated Transit Union, Local 279, the city’s transit union, said drivers have been placed under a fair degree of stress ever since the city introduced changes to bus routes in September.

• Relations between the transit union and management had never been frostier – even during the 2008 strike that took buses off the road, a 34-year veteran OC Transpo driver told the Kourier-Standard on Nov. 18 “Management is not, I repeat, not willing to protect its employees,” Michel Fecteau said.

Fecteau made the comments during an interview in a week that saw tensions between the union and OC Transpo management boil over.

A series of highly publicized complaints against operators, including a YouTube video showing a driver talking on a cell phone while driving, was capped off with the silencing of Yves Roy, a driver who is known for singing as he drives.

• Bill Teron, the “Father of Kanata”, vowed to fight what he called “a systemic sickness” in the city’s planning process. Teron said he would spearhead a fundraising effort to amass a $1-million “war chest” to fight spotzoning requests across the city.

He said $250,000 of that money would be needed to fight a proposal to build a 16-storey highrise at the site of the old Canada Post building at 2 The Parkway in Beaverbrook. Teron spoke against the proposal during a meeting on Dec. 12.

Kanata Kourier-Standard - JANUARY 05, 2012

Many residents oppose Beaverbrook highrise

EDITORIAL

Bi-lingual or bye-lingual

P

arlez vous francais?

For Dartmouth-Cole Harbour MP Robert Chisholm, that may very well have been the question that scuttled his run for the leadership of the federal New Democratic Party.

In December, Chisholm announced that, after months of criss-crossing the country and after a pledge to get his French-language skills up to snuff, he came to the realization that the leader of the government-in-waiting needed to be able to parlez Francais on day one, not after a period of intense cramming.

A unilingual Anglophone leading a party whose major seat strength comes from Quebec will probably have as much chance of electoral success as an unilingual coach has of remaining at the helm of the Montreal Canadians.

For the NDP, last year was a frustrating one, and Chisholm knows frustration when he sees it. While the NDP soared to new heights this year under the late, charismatic Jack Layton, the official opposition was thrown into limbo when he lost his battle with cancer in August, Back in 1998, Chisholm came agonizingly close to power. As the leader of the Nova Scotia NDP, voters

A

ccording to the usual deadlyaccurate computer projections, the seven-billionth human being has been born. This has implications that none of us can really understand. However many people now suspect that there will soon be seven billion people living in their neighbourhood.

This is because of intensification, a policy that has taken on the properties of sacred cow in many cities, including this one. The idea, which has great surface plausibility, is that cities should encourage more people to live in central areas. They will do this by planning and zoning. This will prevent ugly urban sprawl with all the costs that go along with it. The central area will flourish with all its new residents, who will not clog the streets with their cars because they will use public transit.

What a nice city we would have if all this were to come true. But it probably won’t.

We will continue to have sprawl and it will coincide with more crowded central area neighbourhoods and more cars and more unhappy people.

And why would that be? Because the usual deadly-accurate reading of human nature says that intensification flies in the face of it.

flipped a coin – and it landed on its side. His NDP won 19 seats, the exact same number as the Liberals.

Parliamentary convention saw to it that the incumbent Liberals got another crack at governing, with Progressive Conservative support. Chisholm’s decision to drop out of the federal NDP leadership race because of his French problem now throws some light on Ottawa Centre MP Paul Dewar and Abitibi-James Bay-Nunavik-Eeyou MP Romeo Saganash, who have problems with French and English respectively.

Dewar’s French is passable, good even, but not great. Saganash has struggled in the debates to express himself well in English.

This is not a moot point. Remember back in 2006 and the Liberal leadership race? The joke question going around was, “How good is Stephane Dion’s English? About as good as Gerard Kennedy’s French,” a sop at the linguistic skills, or lack thereof, of both candidates.

Then, at the convention, it was Kennedy who helped put Dion over the top. One of Dion’s oft-repeated, shortcomings as leader?

Canadians had trouble understanding him – in either language.

Spaced out in the ‘burbs CHARLES GORDON Funny Town The human nature in question is the Canadian variety. Canadians have always had lots of space and have always enjoyed that. The experts tell us we don’t need all that space but average Canadians might not agree. They want enough room to swing a cat, as somebody’s grandmother used to say.

You know that for yourself. Take a trip to some crowded country in Europe or the Third World and the first thing you want to do when you come home is to stretch out, walk down the street without dodging people, park your car without having to drive five kilometres away, go out in the yard and enjoy the fact that you have a yard.

You also like the look of space. You like to see the sky, the tops of trees. Somebody puts an apartment building where the sky

used to be and you don’t say, “Oh, goody!

Intensification.”

This is why all those neighbourhood fights are taking place and it’s why people are still moving to the ’burbs. People like space and they see that there still seems to be lots of it.

Against them are the planners and urbanization experts who say this is the wrong way to live. They picture a new urban utopia and can’t understand why everyone else doesn’t see it too.

Everyone else does see it, in a way. It’s probably fair to say that most people agree in principle with the idea of intensification. They would just prefer that intensification take place on somebody else’s street.

From the point of view of human nature, another problem is that the chief beneficiaries of intensification may not exist. The idea is predicated on the notion of a new generation of urbanites, who like to live in low-rise apartments, eschew the automobile and take the bus everywhere.

Are there enough such people around to make the theory work? Do you know any yourself ? If you do, they might be rich because many of the new intensified dwellings that are springing up are for people

who have lots of money. To many Ottawans, then, intensification means rich people moving into tall buildings in the neighbourhood and blocking the sky.

And one more thing: since the transit system is still somewhat less than perfect, those rich people are going to be bringing their cars.

Meanwhile, people who can’t afford the intensified lifestyle or want enough room to swing a cat will continue to buy singlefamily dwellings in the suburbs, which means more development and more cars driving downtown.

Imagine how much worse it’s going to get when we are eight billion.

The implication seems to be that the proposed highrise will be surrounded by single family homes. In fact, on one side of the highrise will be the 11-storey Atriums apartment building; on side two will be a large parking lot and Earl of March school, on side three will be a parking lot and the Bell Canada building; on side four will be a collection of

With winter’s arrival parents should think safety when it comes to their children operating snowmobiles or all-terrain vehicles.

The Ontario Provincial Police would like to remind everyone when the snow comes there are many hazards to watch out for.

Many ATV and snow mobile operators are anxious to go out and enjoy the new snow but before you go, remember: * There isn’t a solid base of snow on the ground yet, which means rocks, culverts and other debris are not covered but they may be hidden by fresh snow, making it difficult to see them.

Lakes and rivers are not frozen but may have a thin layer of ice and fresh snow on top. * Stay off the ice until you have checked to make sure it is thick enough and wear a flotation snowmobile suit. A snowmobile requires a minimum of five inches of new, clear ice to safely support it. No ice is safe ice.

• With recent rainfall, rivers are flowing fast and caution should be used when near them.

• Always wear an approved helmet.

• Never mix alcohol and snowmobiles. If you are operating a snowmobile with over-the-legallimit of alcohol in your body, you will face the same penalties as if you were driving your car.

• Always limit your speed to the conditions and don’t overdrive your head lights.

• Read your owners manual and know your machine.

• Check your documents: make sure your license validation sticker isn’t expired. Make sure your insurance is valid. Don’t

forget your trail pass.

• Check to make sure that your machine is in good running order.

• Put together a safety kit and put it on your machine.

In 2010, there were 17 snowmobile fatalities and in the 2011 season there have been 15 ATV fatalities in Ontario.

If you see an impaired snowmobiler or all-terrain vehicle operator, call 911 and report them to police. Please be careful and have a safe snowmobiling experience.

three story row houses (which, when built, were furiously opposed as ruining Beaverbrook with forecasts of traffic jams on Teron Road). If we look at Teron Road, there is, in fact, only one single dwelling structure on the entire road and it seems to be used as a commercial enterprise.

As for heritage preservation committees...Newfoundland with structures dating to the 14th century has heritage to preserve. Beaverbrook dating to 1960s needs to wait a bit.

Re: “Teron funds battle against highrise,” Dec. 1, Kourier-Standard.

Many of the comments attributed to Bill Teron are a little over the top. We did not really spend 50 years planning the community (Beaverbrook). Perhaps we did spend years planning Kanata (although there is little to show for the planning).

Similarly I doubt that all architects and planners are going to quit if the high rise is approved.

Some of the comments attributed to Andrew Sterling and Eileen Howell also surprise me. They are quoted as saying “the whole thing came at us in two weeks. The developers have had six months, a year to make their decisions”.

As far as I know, the sign advertising the site for sale was erected some months ago so any interested Beaverbrook citizen had a lot of time to en-

quire. The actual announcement of the sale was made less than a month ago, as far as I know.

Further, Howell is quoted as saying, in one place, “No one is turning me down” and in another place “Over 200 people were contacted about the dinner and around 120 participated”.

As well, I am one of the people who was contacted and certainly did not support the campaign against the development.

Apart from phone calls from Howell, no one in Kanata has commented to me on the development so it seems to me to be a little over the top to say that “this thing snowballed to an enormous uprising of civic interest”. I would not say that 120 people out of a population in Kanata of about 70,000 is an enormous groundswell of public opinion.

There is a comment that we must follow the original plan for Kanata. As someone who has lived in Beaverbrook since 1972, I assume that this would include reviving the Kanata Covenant which governed even the colour of one’s doors , forbade drying clothes in the

Ottawa police Chief Vern White, the scholar LAURA MUELLER laura.mueller@metroland.com

He’s the imposing, stern face of one of the Canada’s largest municipal police forces.

But few would know that Ottawa police Chief Vern White is just as comfortable in a graduation cap as he is in his police blues.

In a profession that prizes a streetsmart, rough-and-tumble approach, White is turning that concept on its head

and making scholars out of his officers.

And he is starting with himself.

“Yeah, I’ve been in school for 20 years,” White said wryly. “I would paint myself as a cop. A lot of others might paint me as an academic.”

He is in the final stages of his doctorate degree in leadership and public accountability.

That latest chapter follows a long history of learning that began with a bachelor’s degree in sociology and psychology from Acadia University and a diploma

himself across the globe as an international lecturer and as a professor. In his four or five weeks of “vacation” time, White travels to places like India, Dominica and Alaska.

It started in 1998, after someone heard him speak at a community problem solving forum when he was in the RCMP in the Yukon. That led to a speaking gig in Alaska, and White never looked back.

“I learn something every day,” White said about his globe-trotting lecturing. “I will bring back some different thinking,” he said.

His most recent jaunt took him way out of his comfort zone, to the Chinese Peoples’ Police University in Beijing.

White was ready for a culture clash as he addressed halls of up to 160 policing students and senior police officials on topics such as police accountability and transparency and community mobilization.

“It’s a little more difficult there because things like possession of 50 grams of cocaine is a death penalty. So having a discussion around addictions is challenging,” he said. “When they talk about human rights issues, it’s really interesting because they talk about law and justice.

It’s their job to hold up the law. If the law changed and the justice system was different, they would uphold it differently,” White said.

“I spoke really openly about what I see as the changes in policing needed (in order to be) successful,” he added.

Community engagement is the missing piece in China, but it’s a philosophical difference White said he feels almost anywhere he travels, including Australia.

White said lecturing is the best way to teach other cops about his approach to policing.

“Sometimes you really do have to get the message out one lecture at a time.”

in business administration. He followed that up with a master’s degree in conflict analysis and management (his thesis was on restorative justice) from Royal Roads University in British Columbia.

“When I joined the police, I didn’t have a degree, and I didn’t know I could actually get one.

“I see the importance of continuous learning,” White said, and it’s an attitude he tries to pass on to his troops, no matter how much he might get teased for it.

But White doesn’t constrain his academic pursuits to his own learning. He has been passing on his knowledge to others through guest lectures and university courses for several years, and now he has taken it to a new level.

In 2008, White worked with his doctoral university, Charles Sturt University in Australia, to develop an undergraduate program specifically for Ottawa Police Service officers. So far, 16 have enrolled in the two-year program, two classes have graduated and the program is now being opened up to officers from other police forces.

It focuses on criminal justice and has recently been made available to police officers from across Canada. Most of the program is done online, with the final course at the university (at the officer’s expense).

He also teaches a master’s-level online course in global law enforcement for Charles Sturt.

Locally, White is a familiar face in classrooms at both Carleton University and the University of Ottawa as a professor at the graduate and undergraduate levels.

“I enjoy the interaction with young people in particular,” White said. “I do find I learn a lot about finding solutions in other ways, from people who haven’t already decided what the solution is.”

The chief is also making a name for

KOURIER-STANDARD STAFF A Bridlewood man was treated for burns to his arms and legs after attempting to put out a garage fire on Monday, Jan. 2.

Firefighters received a 911 call about the fire at a home on Black Tern Crescent close to midnight and arrived to find a fire in a garbage can in the house’s garage.

The fire was extinguished and contained to the garage with no damage to the rest of the home.

The Ottawa fire department said the cause of the fire appears to be acciden-

tal.

Damage was limited to the contents of the garage, estimated at around $30,000.

Two nights earlier, Ottawa firefighters put out a commercial fire at the Stonehaven Plaza on 701 Eagleson Rd. Firefighters responded to reports of smoke coming from Mojo Restaurant in the plaza on Saturday, Dec. 31, at 8:41 p.m.

The damage is estimated at $100,000 for the building and $150,000 for the contents.

The cause of the fire has not been determined.

Fire crews responded to three traffic accidents in Kanata in the span of 15-minutes today.

A driver was extricated from his vehicle after a collision with a snow plow at the intersection of Campeau Drive and March Road this morning.

Firefighters responded to the accident at 10:31 a.m., removing the passenger’s side door to access the male driver who was treated and transported to hospital by paramedics.

The driver of the plow did not appear to be injured.

Ottawa Fire Service spokesperson Marc Messier said that while icy road conditions were most likely a factor, the cause won’t be determined until a police investigation is completed.

Fire crews also responded to two other traffic accidents in Kanata on the morning of Dec. 29.

A three vehicle collision at the intersection of Robertson Road and Eagleson Road injured one male driver. Extrication was not required, and he was treated and transported to hospital by paramedics.

One of the three vehicles in the crash was a police car, but the officer was not injured.

Messier said there was a possibility the officer was on his way to the Campeau Drive and March Road accident when the crash occurred.

The Carleton Place Kings Atom House ‘B’ team, seen, right, in action against the Leitrim Hawks, billeted the Korean Eagles during the Bell Capital Cup.

Dan Plouffe photos

The Kanata Blazers received their silver trophy for second place in the Bell Capital Cup Minor Atom ‘AAA’ from former Ottawa Senator Todd White.

Simon Labelle scored a hat trick in the championship game, but it wasn’t quite enough as his Cumberland Grads fell 5-3 to North Bay in the Bell Capital Cup Minor Atom ‘AA’ final.

Capital Cup fever

‘The kids had a tremendous time and that’s what it’s all about’: White CAPITAL CUP, from 1 Arenas across the city were buzzing throughout the Dec. 28 to Jan. 1 event as 410 atom and peewee-aged teams competed in 19 divisions at the 13th-annual tournament, including a record 15 teams from overseas who were all hosted by local participants.

Parents of the Carleton Place Atom House ‘B’ Kings who billeted the Korean Eagles found themselves cheering just as hard for their guests as they were for their own kids.

Despite living half a world apart, the connection between the young players was instant as they bonded with tobogganing, video games and mini-sticks, note Carleton Place hosts Eric and Cynthia Belliveau.

“I think it’s really the start of something that will last beyond just the week they’re here,” says Eric, whose son Alexandre roomed with Eagles players Dong Hyun Shin and Se Hyeon Yi. And of course there was the action on the ice as teams played multiple games

each day, plus all-star contests and skills competitions.

The Nepean Raiders won the highest level championship out of area teams by capturing the minor peewee ‘AAA’ division crown, while the Stittsville Rams were best in the major atom ‘B’ event.

“The organizers do a great job,” salutes Ottawa West Golden Knights coach Rob Vandenberg, whose minor peewee ‘A’ team played in one of two division finals that were decided in overtime. “It’s really well-run and it’s a highlight of the season every year.”

MINOR ATOM AAA CHAMPIONSHIP The 11-2 score in the championship game wasn’t the prettiest, but winning silver trophies when matched up against the Toronto Marlboros was an accomplishment nonetheless for the Kanata Blazers.

“We asked them for one thing,” explains Mike Eastwood, whose team scored the first goal and was tied 1-1

against their powerhouse opponents after the first period. “We asked them to work as hard as they possibly could, and every boy in that dressing room worked as hard as they could every shift.

“You can’t always control the outcome.

The Marlies are one of the best teams in the province and in the country. They are the top of the top. We gave it everything we had and played with them for a period.

“The way I look at it, coming from a smaller community like Kanata, getting a chance to play against the big boys, for us we were very fortunate.”

Eastwood was also impressed that his team “battled and battled” to reach the final. Backed by goaltenders Gabe Arrigo and Tye Austin, the Blazers recorded three shutouts at the event over Troy Albany, Lambton and Assabet Valley, and also had a good defensive effort in a 2-1 semi-final victory over Rideau St. Lawrence.

“I’m happy,” says Kanata player Ben Semiga, who collected close to 50 pins from other teams during the tourna-

ment. “It was a lot of fun.”

Semiga and Keagan Johnston were responsible for four of the paltry five goals Toronto allowed over the course of the tournament as the Marlies completely overwhelmed their opponents by a combined margin of 63-5.

So there weren’t too many sad faces for the Blazers as they collected their awards from honourary tournament chair Todd White, a Kanata native and former Ottawa Senator.

“Getting into the finals of a major tournament competition is just a heck of an accomplishment for our team,” adds Eastwood, whose players came up as a group to accept the trophy since no one is singled out as a captain.

“The kids had a tremendous time, and that’s what it’s all about. They got to play at Scotiabank Place, with that big new score clock, and they absolutely loved every minute of it. They’re all walking away with smiles.”

Kanata teams were also semi-finalists in Major Peewee ‘AA’, Major Atom ‘AAA’ and Atom House ‘A’.

Residents can turn their real Christmas trees into a holiday treat for farm animals this winter.

Donating a live spruce, pine or fir tree is another green alternative to throwing it in the green bin once the holiday season is over. The Elk Ranch on Old Carp Road and the Constance Creek Wildlife Refuge on Dunrobin Road are both collecting live Christmas trees as forage for elk and goats.

“The goats will delight in stripping the trees down into naked skeletons very quickly,” said Lynne Rowe, founder of the wildlife refuge.

Her goats’ winter diet consists mainly of hay, so some spruce or pine needles are a real treat, Rowe said.

The same is true at the Elk Ranch.

“It adds a different diet for the elk,” said Thom van Eeghen, who owns the Elk Ranch with his wife Fay Armitage.

“It gives them some roughage. It adds different minerals and vitamins to their diet that they don’t normally get in a captive situation.”

The elk will strip the tree bare, eating the pine needles and the bark.

“They’ll eat it right down to the trunk,” said van Eeghen, who has about 90 freerange elk on his property. “The elk eat

it up pretty much completely and you’re helping a farmer at the same time.”

Live trees that have been treated with chemicals in the water are not recommended for the animals, said van Eeghen.

“The elk can smell it,” he said, adding chemically-treated spruce, pine or firs are safely burned in the summer. “They won’t touch those ones.”

He also said to ensure all tinsel and decorations have been removed before dropping off a tree. Tinsel can be difficult for animals to digest and can harm the elk and goats.

Every year, van Eeghen said the Elk Ranch receives between 20 and 30 trees from residents, which can last the herd up to three months.

“They’ll eat a lot,” he said.

People can drop their live trees off at the Constance Creek Wildlife Refuge at 2494 Dunrobin Rd. in the ditch or on the front lawn, or at the Elk Ranch, located at 1271 Old Carp Rd., in front of the barn.

People are also invited to visit the ranch store and pick up some meat.

“Stop by and buy some elk meat, some roast or some steaks, some sausage or even some hamburger if you’re willing to fight the frigid temperatures at your barbeque,” said van Eeghen.

Rowe said that she would also be happy to accept hedge trimmings or other natural scraps throughout the year.

The Kanata Lakes Community Association elected a new executive on Dec. 14.

Matt Muirhead, the former president of the Briarbrook Brookside Morgan’s Grant Community Association, was elected president during the annual general meeting held at the old schoolhouse on Goldridge Drive, in Kanata Lakes.

“I’m going to bring my experience as president of a community association in Morgan’s Grant to the table to energize citizens on multiple issues,” said Muirhead.

Muirhead said he would continue outgoing president Steve Hulaj’s work to advocate for the protection of environmentally-significant lands. He also promised to bring Kids Day in the Park back starting this summer.

“I’m looking forward to working with the community on many fronts,” he said. “Development issues, particularly as they regard the South March Highlands, remain top of mind for me and many others.

“We will remain vigilant on important issues and we’ll be increasing communication with residents and organizing events for families.”

Megan Cornell, former Liberal candidate for Carleton-Mississippi Mills, was elected vice-president and Hulaj will serve as past-president.

Jim Malone who was defeated last year in an election for president of the Kanata Lakes Community Association by Hulaj, was elected director at large and Rosemary Barr was re-elected as the association’s treasurer.

Staying in Touch . . . and Market Update

I anticipate sales to remain stable in 2012. Canada Mortgage and Housing Corporation (CMHC) indicated that the "increase in the average MLS price is consistent with the balanced market conditions that have occurred so far in 2011, and that are expected next year."(1) We are very fortunate to live in a community that benefits from the federal government and a diversity of other employers. In addition, low interest rates continue to drive first time buyers, those looking to move to larger homes, investors and renovations. If you plan to renovate, take advantage of extended government programs, such as the energy saving program, to increase your home / investment value and reduce energy consumption. Remember land value appreciates and homes depreciate unless continually maintained.

Please feel free to give me a call if you would like more details on the market, an evaluation of your home, guidance in preparing your home for market, or would simply like to stay in touch.

Voting set to open for business awards JESSICA CUNHA jessica.cunha@metroland.com

The Kanata Chamber of Commerce saw a record number of nominees put forward for this year’s People’s Choice Business Awards.

Voting is set to begin on Jan. 9, with 281 companies, non-profits and individuals competing for a top spot among their peers. Online voting, which will determine the award winners in all categories except for the Citizen of the Year Award, will run until Feb. 3.

The nomination period, which ran from Nov. 28 to Dec. 22, is now closed.

Five finalists will be declared in each category in the competition, with the winners announced at a gala awards night at the Brookstreet Hotel in Kanata on Feb. 23.

Twenty-seven awards will be presented to businesses, organizations and individuals in the three geographic regions – Kanata, Goulbourn and West Carleton – represented by the Chamber.

The Citizen of the Year Award will go to one person from the whole area and the winner will be selected by a committee. Winners in all other categories will be

determined solely by the number of votes received in the online voting.

The awards recognize exceptional service in the community, as voted by those who know them best, the residents of Kanata, Goulbourn and West Carleton, said Rosemary Leu, general manager of the Kanata Chamber of Commerce.

“This event is a great way to showcase the many businesses and individuals who make our community of Kanata, Goulbourn and West Carleton such a great place to live, work and play,” said Leu. Last year, the Chamber received a record number of over 10,000 votes for the nominated businesses, with 254 nominees in 12 categories.

All those interested in placing their votes for this year’s awards can find more information on the website at www.kanatachamber.com.

The Kanata Chamber of Commerce is a non-profit organization that helps create a positive business environment and contribute to the success of the Kanata, Goulbourn and West Carleton business community by providing leadership, representation, information and networking opportunities.

Former Beaverbrook resident and first-time published author John Gleed explores humanity in his apocalyptic thriller “Earth’s New Beginning.”

Survivor hails from Kanata in new disaster novel JESSICA CUNHA jessica.cunha@metroland.com

According to the Mayan calendar, 2012 marks the end of the world.

For author John Gleed, the end of the world comes from the Sleeping Death Contagion virus, which wipes out almost all of earth’s population in his first published novel “Earth’s New Beginning.”

The former Beaverbrook resident follows the stories of four unrelated survivors across the globe, from Canada, the United States, England and Kenya.

Gleed’s former community is well represented, with a survivor hailing from Kanata, and one from Morrisburg, where the 66-year-old currently resides after retiring from the hightech industry in 2002.

“Morrisburg is fairly obvious because I’ve been living down here for five or six years now,” said Gleed, who founded the JetForm Corporation, which was bought by Adobe in 2002.

“So far as Kanata was concerned I guess being in the high-tech industry for 30 years and (having) lived in the Kanata area for a bit, and then out in Carp for a bit, Crystal Bay for a bit and Nepean for a bit, it became fairly easy to decide to have one of the survivors come from that area.”

Gleed immigrated to Ottawa from England to work for Nortel, then known as Bell Northern Research.

The English survivor in the novel hails from a small village in northern

England where Gleed grew up.

Locations of the survivors from the States were places that he visited either as a tourist or on business, he said.

Gleed’s connection to Kenya, which he has never visited, came from his first wife who passed away in the mid’90s. She was born in a refugee camp in Kenya, said Gleed.

The book takes a look into the survivors’ lives for the first nine months through their first winter after the infection spreads rapidly and leaves less than one in 100,000 survivors.

“I guess it was a combination of thinking of all the scenarios, the end of the world scenarios, things that have gone on in the recent past (such as) SARS and the bird flu,” said Gleed, a member of the board of directors of the Winchester District Memorial Hospital and Upper Canada Playhouse.

He grew up and completed high school during the height of the Cold War. Gleed said he always thought about what he would do if “the big bomb dropped.”

Since then, he’s been fascinated with apocalyptic fiction.

“It seems that there are quite a lot of people who have a similar fascination that I have,” said Gleed, “People that are interested in that kind of disaster novel.”

His book looks at the idea of what people would do if there were no regulations.

tion where there was no restrictions “Chiropractic Health... on where you could live and what you could have,” said Gleed, adding more than the mere absence of pain” he wrote the book as an escape from everyday stressors. “It’s something I think that appeals to people especially in situations where they have pressures.”

‘BIG QUESTION MARK’ It took Gleed about three years to finish writing the book.

“After I retired I put a lot of effort into the thing,” he said. He had it finished towards the end of 2005, and just recently went about finding a publisher.

“I decided well, I put a lot of work in it,” said Gleed, who added he does wonder how long human existence could last in circumstances where the surviving population is as low as he described.

“The big question mark in my mind is how long can civilization exist under those circumstances because there’s nobody to mend anything…or to provide more resources,” said Gleed.

He added he’s considering writing a sequel to “Earth’s New Beginning.”

“I deliberately only followed the survivors for the first winter…about nine months after the contagion occurred,” said Gleed. “It certainly leaves it open to write a sequel. Whether I will actually fulfill that is a different matter.”

Morgan’s Grant author publishes first novel at 12 JESSICA CUNHA jessica.cunha@metroland.com

Cadie Thompson isn’t a normal 13year-old; she’s a secret agent, a vigilante fighting the world’s criminals.

She’s also the main character in 12year-old Dorothy Babiakova’s first novel, “Dangerously Yours, Cadie Thompson.”

“I’m not sure where I actually got the idea,” said Dorothy, who lives in Morgan’s Grant. “I was thinking I could make something more directed to girls but also to boys. Not an adult, a kid.

Cadie Thompson, she’s a person that symbolizes that kids don’t have to wait until they’re grown up to do incredible things.”

The Grade 7 All Saints Catholic High School student first wrote the book while in grades 5 and 6 in an old notebook, along with pencil sketches.

“A lot of people they just go, ‘Wow, that’s incredible.’ I feel kind of flattered,” said Dorothy about publishing a novel at a young age. “My face just turns red.”

Last February, Dorothy sent copies of the introduction, the first chapter and a cover letter to six different publishers.

“I read about how you can publish a book,” she said. “I heard about how J.K. Rowling (the author of the ‘Harry Potter’ series) sent it to 11 different publishers.”

She received only two replies, one a no and one from Baico Publishing asking to

see the entire manuscript.

“I got really excited. I was so amazed that it was only six different publishers,” said Dorothy. “I thought I would have to send it to way more. I was really surprised.”

She spent her summer editing the copy, cleaning up the illustrations and designing the cover page. By October, the finished product was in her hand.

“It’s a bit amazing to see how it’s gone from this torn up old notebook…to a book. It’s pretty hard to believe,” said Dorothy. “I did learn a lot and it was tiring too.

“You don’t just write a book and off you’re done; it’s a lot of work.”

So far, she’s sold about 30 copies of “Dangerously Yours.”

The novel follows Cadie as she travels halfway across the world to find an ally to help her defeat an evil villain, bent on killing her.

“I think it would be maybe an adventure, maybe a thriller,” said Dorothy about her book. “There’s a lot of action in it.”

NEVER TOO YOUNG Dorothy said she doesn’t believe age should play a factor when it comes to accomplishing goals.

“I definitely don’t think that people should say that they’re too young to do something. I don’t think you can ever

be too young to do something,” she said.

“A lot of people can do amazing things.

There’s a lot of disappointing things in our generation but there’s a lot of amazing things. If we all just tried than we could make this world into an amazing place.”

Instead, Dorothy said she believes people should focus on what they want to achieve.

“If we stopped saying, ‘What do you want to be when you grow up?’ and instead say, ‘What do you want to be now?’ then I think we could do amazing things.”

Her parents, mother Janka Babiakova and father Milan Babiak, both said they are incredibly proud of their daughter.

“It was exciting,” said her father. “To me it was kind of natural. It wasn’t so much of a surprise because she worked very hard on it for almost two years. It was a tangible result of her hard work.”

He added the publisher didn’t know Dorothy’s age when she sent in her manuscript. Milan asked the publisher to guess how old she was and the publisher said 21.

“When I said 12 I heard a big, big pause.

He couldn’t believe that,” said Milan.

Janka said she was asked to help with the editing.

“When she gave me her manuscript and asked me to edit it…I said ‘Yes, sure,’ then I started to read and I caught myself reading the story,” said Janka. “I wasn’t really looking for spelling mistakes.”

Dorothy added that her sisters, Kristina and Martina, both helped her through the editing process as well.

“They’re very inspiring in some ways and they’re both really good sisters.

They helped me so much with my book,” she said. “Designs, editing, they gave me honest opinions, they didn’t sugar coat anything. They were honest with me and that’s something I appreciate the most.”

Dorothy has plans to turn “Dangerously Yours” into a series, following dif-

ferent spies as the main characters.

“I was thinking there would be a final book where they all join up and go on a final mission,” she said. “Maybe about four books altogether in that series.”

Dorothy has also finished writing two more novels, one a mystery set in England – where she said she’s always wanted to travel to – and another about bullying.

“It’s a really sensitive subject to me,” said Dorothy. “I see a lot of it. I find that it’s really important that kids learn how serious it is.”

“I definitely don’t think that people should say that they’re too young to do something.”

• Dorothy Babiakova

She’s already sent in copies of the manuscripts, and the publisher said he was interested in the new books.

“I find that I’m really excited that I’ve found one publisher,” said Dorothy. “I think that it’s a good head start for when I get older if I want to have it on my resume for college and different jobs.”

Dorothy said she didn’t think she’d be a full-time author after she finishes school, but wants to look at careers such as journalism or acting and write on the side.

“But I would still definitely write books it just wouldn’t be the main thing,” she said.
