Kids feeling trapped and bored in village Continued from front

About a dozen plus their parents showed up.

Youth Connexion, the Western Ottawa Community Resource Centre (WOCRC) and the city of Ottawa hosted the event on April 19 at the W. Erskine Johnston Arena.

Opinion was united among all attendees. A mobile skate park is deeply desired and would add much needed youth activity to the area.

At the moment if somebody wants to go to skateboarding, they must make the trek to Nepean, Stittsville or Kanata.

The distance is a problem for youth who cannot drive. Many of them feel trapped and said they had nothing to do in the area. A local skate park would offer them a safe haven for fun at a walking distance.

“They don’t have to rely on their parents,” said Hanniman. “They can go there, do their own thing and be active.”

Parents were also invited to the forum, but were held apart to allow the kids to speak freely.

Those who attended the forum were positive about their children’s skate park initiative.

“They are definitely for it,” said Program Coordinator for the City of Ottawa Laurie Buck.

“They are up for the physical activity. They are up for the kids having a different activity that they can participate in that is physical and social.”

Parents do have some apprehensions.

They are mostly concerned about making sure that once the park is here, it will be safeguarded.

They want reassurance that there will be solutions in place to prevent vandalizing, misuse of

the material and bullying.

It was also a concern shared by the young people in attendance. The solution is simple.

Breeding a sense of ownership in local skateboarders and their friends would help prevent any problems. If they feel protective of the park, they are less likely to allow people to damage it.

“By bringing the youth into it, it gives them a sense of ownership and at the end, it’s a huge accomplishment,” said Hanniman.

There is still much to be done before the skate park project can be completed, namely fundraising.

“They all had ideas,” said Hanniman. “I think they will all commit to it because they heard the cost today. They want to help. I know they do.

“If they want it to happen, we can get it to happen,” she added.

Kids were also given the opportunity to try out a sample ramp for themselves.

The prospective skate park will be composed of several different pieces of foldable equipment. Each part is portable and links up together to create unlimited combination of terrain. City staff would take it out during activity hours and then put it away for safe keeping. The ramps may look flimsy, but can support the weight of the truck.

Reaction from kids was positive.

“It’s a good idea because it keeps people off the streets,” said Nathan Savery, 13.

The Youth Connexion, the Western Ottawa Community Resource Centre (WOCRC) and the city of Ottawa held a forum on April 19 to gather information on the community desire for a mobile skateboard park in the area. Organizers brought out a sample ramp and Nathan Young, 8, tries it out.

To lure young people to the forum, organizers gave out pizza and prizes. Aiden James, 11, took home the grand prize which included a new skateboard and gear. He practices his moves on the sample ramp.

Breeders, pet owners pleased with final kennel bylaw Changes include a license for recreational dog owners Laura Mueller laura.mueller@metroland.com

EMC news - The third time was a charm for Ottawa’s new kennel rules aimed at preventing puppy mills.

The proposed bylaw was delayed twice late last year following public outcry over the impact on dogsledders and others who have dogs for recreational purposes.

West Carleton-March Coun. Eli El-Chantiry won a delay in October, when almost 200 people packed the Greely Community Centre and almost a couple of dozen speakers voiced their frustrations with the plan.

For one thing, the city would ask many rural dog owners to fly under the radar if it passes new kennel and breeding rules, Kinburn resident Tim Pychyl told councillors during the Oct. 4 meeting.

Pychyl, who owns eight sled dogs, pleaded with the committee to include people like him – recreational pet owners who have more than three dogs. Based on that feedback, staff included a new recre-

ational kennel category, which would cover homes where dogs are raised for non-commercial recreational purposes.

The category has a limit of 10 dogs over the age of 20 weeks (the category only applies to dogs), unless they are housed in a building separate from the home. License holders can also keep up to three dogs that have retired from their recreational use and one rescued dog.

Pychyl said the addition “has really done the job of creating the space we need to ethically own and race dogs.�

Ottawa Kennel Club past president Joan Colbourn said the recreation category addition was a “wonderful wayâ€? to solve the problems dog owners identified in the previous versions of the bylaw. “At the first meeting it seemed like the city had no idea ‌ They seemed to think if you had dogs, you were a kennel and breeding operation,â€? Colbourn said.

Still, many dog owners and breeders will continue to fly under the radar even though they should be licensed, said current president Carol Broad-

hurst. “It would be wonderful if everyone applied. But not everyone will apply. That’s the problem,� she said, adding there is a lot of leeway for the “good� breeders to comply.

The second category would put a limit of three dogs and five cats in place for the inhome breeding kennel category. But after the public called for it, staff added a clause to allow up to three retired dogs or five retired cats to be kept as pets, or a rescued dog or cat to be kept temporarily. Those limits are intended to reduce the potential for noise caused by a large number of cats or dogs in a residential setting.

But the limits wouldn’t apply to in-home breeding kennels that house animals primarily in an outbuilding.

The in-home breeding category includes basic requirements such as clean conditions and veterinary care when necessary. But it also includes limits on breeding, selling and transferring animals.

City staff also removed a clause of the in-home breeding kennel that would have re-

quired breeders to be a member in good standing of a bona fide dog or cat registry such as the Canadian Kennel Club or the Canadian Cat Association. That’s in recognition of breeders who focus on mixed “designer� breeds rather than purebreeds. “We’re not in the business of passing judgment on whether animals should be true bred or not,� said Christine Hartig, the city project officer for the new rules. Ron Holowka, a resident who came to address the committee on April 4, asked councillors to consider making the rules apply to pet shops as well.

But Hartig said pet shops

fall under different legislation because they handle animals in a different way. Shops usually don’t breed animals themselves, and they house the animals temporarily until they are sold – not for long periods of time, like a breeding kennel.

A city staff review found that most pet shops in Ottawa are actually selling animals from shelters and the Ottawa Human Society – not private breeders, Hartig said.

The third category would apply to boarding kennels, which would require a $100 license.

Boarding operations would be required to comply with zoning, have the proper insurance, keep health records for each

animal, employ trained staff and maintain cleanliness and proper conditions such as temperature, food and water.

Some existing license holders will be grandfathered and allowed to have more animals until 2018. Under the previous rules staff drafted in October, there were only two categories: in-home breeding license, which would apply to people who have more than three dogs or five cats for breeding or showing; and a separate licence proposed for commercial kennels or boarding operations. Enforcement would be based on health and safety and only done when absolutely necessary, city staff said.

Riders insist city re-instates rural Transpo Laura Mueller laura.mueller@metroland.com

EMC news - Changes to accessible transit service in rural areas made a year ago aren’t working, say riders who pleaded for the transit commission to reinstate Para Transpo service.

Instead of running Para Transpo vans to transport disabled people within rural areas, OC Transpo decided to provide funding to community service organizations that provide rides.

While it may have sounded like a good idea at the time, the change has left people stranded and isolated, said Adele Muldoon, a West Carleton resident who spoke to the transit commission on April 17 on behalf of the Council on Aging.

Some of the community-based services only run during business hours during the week and none of them are equipped to transport people who are confined to wheelchairs or scooters.

“Every Ottawa citizen should have the opportunity to participate in community life,” Muldoon said.

Commissioning taxis to pick up the slack is not a viable solution, since the companies usually refuse to send cabs to far-flung rural areas, Muldoon said.

The city considers the changes to be a success. In the past year, community service agencies have been able to provide an additional 4,557 trips at an operating cost of $51 per trip – much lower than the cost of running a Para van, which is $77 per trip.

Through the service agencies, clients are also able to travel beyond city limits and book their trips up to two weeks in advance, whereas Para Transpo bookings must be made on the same day the person wants to travel.

Brenda Brake uses a wheelchair and has been a Para Transpo rider for eight years. She’s from Manotick and the village is home to her friends, family and her doctor, but Brake

hasn’t been able to make it to a doctor’s appointment for the past year because she now lives in Barrhaven – the urban area.

That is due to a separate but related issue – Para service is overloaded and the process of booking a ride is harried and inconsistent, she said. But even if she does manage to get to Manotick, she would have to take Para Transpo back to Barrhaven in order to get a ride to the home of a friend or family member in Manotick.

Instead, Brake has taken to meeting her daughter for lunch at a restaurant in Barrhaven.

“The question is why they changed anything in the first place,” Brake said. “It just doesn’t make sense.”

Some of the transit commissioners sympathized. While the commission’s chairwoman, GloucesterSouthgate Coun. Diane Deans, left the room to speak to the media with OC Transpo general manager John Manconi, Kanata North Coun. Marianne Wilkinson was directing staff to

look at consulting disabled transit users in the rural area about their needs.

Public consultations on Para Transpo are already slated for this summer, she said, so staff should use that opportunity to get a full picture of the challenges disabled transit users face, especially in the rural areas.

The issue affects just under 100 people who need accessible transit service in the city’s rural areas, Wilkinson said. She wants staff to review their specific needs and suggestions that could improve their access to transit.

Barrhaven Coun. Jan Harder said maybe the city needs to think outside the box when it comes to Para Transpo, especially in rural areas. Ottawa has invested a lot of money into making the city accessible, whether it’s curb cuts in sidewalks or lowfloor buses, Harder said. The city should focus its efforts on encouraging and helping people with accessibility challenges take advantage of those investments, Harder said.

Encourging riders to book shorter

trips on Para Transpo is one way, Harder said. Perhaps Para could serve more people if riders could book a trip from their door to an accessible transit station and take conventional transit for the bulk of their trips, she said.

“Certainly an interesting approach but it’s a very big question,” said Pat Scrimgeour, manager of transit planning and reporting.

Para Transpo has a mandate to provide door-to-door service, and while riders can request a shorter trip, they are not encouraged to do that, he added.

There is a need for Ottawa to look at a large-scale rethink of how it wants to provide transit service for disabled people, said John Manconi, the general manager of OC Transpo.

“We need a large-scale policy discussion with some difficult dialogue around eligibility and what rules you want to use,” Manconi said. It would involve significant financial considerations Manconi wasn’t prepared to address at the April 17 meeting.

One of Bostonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s finest hours

T

ragedies bring out the best and the worst in people.

In the case of the explosions at the Boston Marathon on April 15, the worst is painfully obvious.

Three people dead, including an eight-year-old boy, and more than 100 others injured.

This was an attempt to create terror, to hurt people, possibly to make a political statement.

When the bombs went off, a flood of people rushed onto the streets. At first, it was a knee-jerk reaction to the horror and confusion of the scene.

But almost immediately afterwards, another, larger flood of people rushed towards the site of the blasts, nurses, doctors, paramedics and emergency workers helping the victims and sealing off the area.

Runners stranded on route to the finish line were surrounded by Boston residents who offered them clothing, water, warm clothing and cellphones to contact their loved ones.

If this was one of Bostonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s worst hours, it was also one of its finest.

This act of terror did not have the presumably desired effect, if the reactions of some of the runners we spoke to following the blast is anything to judge by.

Many runners praised the marathon and said they

hoped to compete in it again.

Ottawa will play host to its own prestigious running event, Ottawa race weekend on May 24 and 25.

Following the explosions at the Boston Marathon, Ottawa race weekend organizers acknowledged that the attack made them more conscious about security surrounding the annual race.

But it certainly wonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t stop them from holding the event.

Terrorists have tried in the past to instill a culture of fear surrounding large public gatherings â&#x20AC;&#x201C; for instance the backpack bombing at the 1996 Atlanta Summer Olympics Games that killed two people and injured 120.

But every Olympics since has simply grown bigger and better.

And the athletes and the fans continue to flock to the events.

Acts of terrorism are hard to predict and difficult to completely prevent, however they are rare events and have a negligible effect on public opinion, except to make them more security conscious.

The Boston Marathon bombing is no different.

The resiliency of the fans and runners in the face of a horrific crime is one more example of tragedy bringing out the best in people.

Life on Mars: the job-cutting economics of science fiction

F

ew people realize the connection between economics and science fiction, but the similarities are dramatic.

Most obvious, is the language component. The jargon-laden gibberish spoken by economists closely resembles the techno-slang uttered by space warriors.

For one there is incentivization and confronting redundancies, for the other there is the antigravity field and the leap to hyperspace â&#x20AC;&#x201D; both equally intelligible.

But there are other similarities, such as the common belief in vaporization. This is most apparent when attacks on budget deficits are in season, as they are now. Both corporate and governmental decision-makers are vigorously seeking to better their bottom line.

At tax time, we in Ottawa know what those who are doing the cutting think: they reduce their costs and their bottom line looks better.

For a corporation, that means increased value for shareholders; for a government, it means applause from the media and some of the voters.

Thus, you get events like government cuts to the compliance program of the Canada Revenue Agency, which will involve about 300 full-time jobs. You get decisions like the closing of seven Department of Fisheries and Oceans libraries

CHARLES GORDON Funny Town across the country, one of them opened only last year. The move has been deplored in the scientific community. No figures about jobs lost have been released, but you know there will be some.

We can leave to more learned people the assessment of the efficiencies involved. Can more really be done with less, as the job-slashers always insist? Thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s always a first time.

More important, and less frequently examined, is the question of what happens to those people whose jobs are lost. Somehow an assumption is made that these cuts have no impact. Those who lose their jobs happily trundle off to other jobs. Or, perhaps, they just vanish, leaving blameless employers happily to contemplate their improved bottom line.

The concept of the vaporized unemployed fits nicely with the theory that societal happi-

ness is the sum of all the corporate and governmental bottom lines.

But what if laid-off people donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t actually disappear? What if they turn up at some other office looking for work? And what if that office is in the process of confronting redundancies too?

What you have then is a number of people who are out of work, who canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t buy things, who pay less or no taxes. That doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t help the economy. The more cuts are made, the more of such people there are. Assuming they are not vaporized.

In addition to the economic cost are the human costs â&#x20AC;&#x201D; children who have to do without, parents who canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t afford day care.

There are certainly corporate and government economists out there who can explain how this benefits our society, but their explanations escape me right now.

When governments say they want to crack down on tax evasion, how does that go with laying off some of the people involved in that?

When governments say that job creation is their aim, how is that aim advanced by eliminating jobs?

Perhaps in outer space, it works, where the rules may be different. Perhaps in outer space,

you can create jobs by cutting jobs. Perhaps in outer space thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s the usual way of doing things.

Not having any knowledge to the contrary, we can imagine that, in outer space, budget deficits can be put into a transporter and made to vanish into another galaxy. We can imagine that jobs can be created with a Laser Job Creation Apparatus (patent pending).

It is a bit harder to imagine that down here.

If the jobless are vaporized, who are all those folks down at the food bank? Yet it clearly is part of the belief systems of those who are making the big decisions.

It canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t do any hard harm to cut 300 jobs, they reason. Actually, it will do good. Yeah, thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s the ticket. It works on Mars.

GMOs, junk food both bad for children Re: Report calls for ban on junk food ads aimed at kids; Panel aims to reduce childhood obesity, by Patricia Leboeuf. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Parents have repeatedly told us that they want to provide health food options for their kinds, but often ďŹ nd that the environment around them undermines those efforts,â&#x20AC;? says Alex Munter, CEO of Childrenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Hospital for Eastern Ontario.

True, but this doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t go to the root of the problem: our inability to eliminate the exposure of our children to GMOs (Genetically ModiďŹ ed Organisms). This can only be done in North America by buying organically produced food, including meat and eggs that are uncontaminated by antibiotics.

We should aim at feeding our children meat that comes from free-ranging, unconďŹ ned animals and birds. Instead

we cannot help but feed our children food contaminated by the dubious GMOs, which are seldom independently tested, as this is actively discouraged by the chemical giants such as Monsanto.

Parents need to know which food is genetically modiďŹ ed and thus potentially problematic, but this is not possible in North America. In contrast, people in Europe are able to reject GMOs and, coincidentally, obesity in children is less common. Of course, a sedentary lifestyle is a major cause of obesity in our children as well.

There is currently a growing movement among American parents against the secret and irresponsible contamination of our food supply with GMOs. Parents in North America must have access to nonGMO food for their children that is clearly identiďŹ ed as such on the productâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s label.

EMC lifestyle - Disclaimer: this one’s a little graphic.

Almost exactly 148 days after the rams were released to impregnate the herd, the first birth occurred, on April 12.

As per usual, it was a difficult one, with one of the twins stuck and needing help to get out. But they did well and a week later they are springing around the pen with a dozen cousins.

Over the past week, we have had an average of two lambs born per day. That would be easy but really it was six one day, none the next. One day I came home from work and went out to the barn and no less than four ewes in one large pen of about ten were in the process of giving birth.

One had just given birth, I think to twins, and one of her little ones was bobbing around under another mom who was cleaning him off while giving birth to her own.

She seemed quite agitated, raising her

eyes to the ceiling, moaning, lying down and bicycling her legs then struggling to her feet, walking around, squatting. Kind of like a human in labour.

I kept myself busy trying to read ewe ear tags, matching them with lambs and logging the sex and number of lambs born beside each mother’s number in the record book.

The big ewe kept up her labour exercises, baa-ing in a sort of rhythmic song or chant.

Every once in a while she would knicker to one of the five other newborns in the pen, and help to lick them dry and clean.

I moved the other new lambs and moms to smaller pens where they could bond and imprint on each other.

Then the big ewe turned around and I saw the lamb head protruding from her bottom.

I was afraid she would break its neck if she flopped down again, so I quickly pulled on the shoulder-length plastic lambing gloves and muttered to myself as I climbed into the pen.

The ewe wasn’t very appreciative of my help, but after a few minutes she gave up trying to get away from me. I gently pinned her shoulder to the wall with my knee and worked at her hind end until the head and one leg was born.

I worried that the second front leg was bent back into the birth canal and didn’t want to pull too hard and break it. The lamb was so slippery; it was very hard to get a good grip.

Then I remembered something. When a sheep has her head stuck in a feeder, you gently twist her body and the head pops out.

So I gently twisted this stuck lamb and he

slid out onto the hay in a wet, slithery mess.

He shook, raised his head, snorted and sneezed. I wiped his nose and mouth clean and his mother immediately started drying him off, knickering to him all the while.

I told her she was a very good mama, and left them alone. He is a very strong single.

I have resisted the urge to name him and I am trying to forget which one he is because I don’t want to get attached.

At the moment I have one lamb who seems to have no idea who his mother is or how to steal milk. Since his birth, I have fed him two bottles of milk replacer a day: one before dawn and one when I return from work around 5. Surprisingly, he is bigger and sturdier than some of his nursing cousins.

Maybe he is stealing milk when I’m not around, and that’s a good thing. In any case, he only has to make it about six more weeks on the bottle and he will be outside on fresh, green grass.

He baaa’s for me when he hears my boots on the barn floor and bites at my sleeves as if he has imprinted on me now, but once he is outside he won’t recognize me at all.

We have lost a couple of weak lambs, but the season is going pretty well overall. That being said, I’m pretty sure I’m missing a lamb because we had two in the aisle pen and now there is only one.

It’s possible that the lamb climbed out through the wooden pen slats and simply added himself to another family.

As long as everyone has a full belly, that’s all that matters. www.theaccidentalfarmwife.blogspot.com R0012006356

EMC news - The United Way Ottawa announced the official tally for its 2012-13 fundraising campaign on March 25, revealing it had surpassed its goal.

The United Way raised $30,334,000 as part of its latest efforts, exceeding the $30 million goal the United Way set in September. United Way board chairman Jamie McCracken took the opportunity to congratulate donors and campaign volunteers for their efforts.

“This is an amazing total for this year’s campaign,” he said.

The organization changed the way the way it allocates money raised from its annual campaign more than two years ago, crafting priorities and funding criteria in order to appeal to donors.

Although the campaign was extended for the first time this year, adding 10 more weeks for donors to contribute, the amount raised for the funding of those priority goals fell short in the end. McCracken explained this is in part because unrestricted donations continue to decline.

The United Way appealed to donors at the announcement to help raise the remaining shortfall of $800,000 before the campaign completed March 31.

The winter of the Redpolls

As is typical of all ďŹ nches, redpolls travel in ďŹ&#x201A;ocks.

Flocking provides more eyes to watch for danger, and thereby affords each ďŹ&#x201A;ock member more time for foraging.

Flocking provides us with one great advantage: it allows us to see different types of redpolls in close proximity to each other.

Michael Runtz Natureâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Way This winter was the best I can remember for not only seeing large numbers of these tiny ďŹ nches but also for seeing the full assortment of their types. Most of the birds are Common Redpolls, which nest in Ontario no farther south than the northern edge of the great muskeg belt known as the Hudson Bay Lowlands.

Many readers reported seeing very pale redpolls among the Commons. These are Hoary Redpolls, a species that only occasionally appears this far south.

Some Hoary Redpolls are larger and whiter than other Hoaries.

These are the Hornemannâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Hoary Redpolls, which nest in Nunavut and Greenland. They rarely come this far south, but this winter a few have shown up in ďŹ&#x201A;ocks of Common Redpolls.

There is yet another type of redpoll, one of which I recently saw at the Macnamara Trail feeders. It is a giant among redpolls, nearly twice as large as a Common, and much darker overall with thicker streaks on the sides.

The bill is huge and overall it looks more like a House Finch than a redpoll.

These are Greater Common Redpolls, which have come all the way from Nunavut and southern Greenland.

There is much debate as to what is a true species and what is only variation within a species of redpoll. Currently two species are recognized: Hoary and Common.

However, some researchers feel that there is only one true species and others suggest that there are as many as six.

Genetics is being used to clarify the picture and I suspect that in the near future we will see some changes to the taxonomy of these fascinating little birds.

Redpolls are still passing through our area, so watch for the northern ones.

It may be many years before we see this diversity again, and by then at least one may have given a new identity!

The Nature number is 613-3872503; email is mruntz@start.ca.

MICHAEL RUNTZ

Common Redpolls are huge compared to their southern counterparts.

Greater Common Redpolls grab lunch off a feeder.

This year among Common Redpolls were Hornemannâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Hoary and Greater Common redpolls, both rare visitors to our area. The Hoary Redpoll is mostly white.

EMC lifestyle - I think it safe to say that winter has ďŹ nally relinquished its icy grip on the land.

The snow is gone, Tree Swallows have staked claims on nesting boxes and Spring Peepers ďŹ ll the evening air with shrill chirps.

Despite springâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s arrival, artefacts from the past season are still visible. Melt water pools adorn ďŹ elds and forests, and northern birds are once again passing through, this time on their way not south but north.

Currently redpolls are still visiting local feeders. They are brown goldďŹ nch-sized ďŹ nches with a black bib and a name-giving red cap on their forehead.

Males sport a reddish breast that gets redder as the pale feather tips wear down while winter wanes. Their ďŹ ne bill is ideal for plucking small seeds from alder cones and dried heads of Evening Primrose and other wildďŹ&#x201A;owers, and niger seeds from birdfeeders.

St. Paul’s United musical to open village of Carp’s Family Album Sherry Haaima sherry.haaima@metroland.com

EMC entertainment - St. Paul’s United Church welcomes you to come and sit with great grandma and her great grandchild as she looks back through her family album to revisit memorable people and what life was like when growing up in Huntley Township and the village of Carp.

The family album comes to life through drama, music and song and is a presentation the whole family will enjoy.

Some of the people you will meet are Dr. Daykin, Carp’s first doctor, Russell Bradley, founder of First Air, Dorothy Snelgrove, housewife, T. A. Lucus, shopkeeper, Clifford Langstaff, barber, Dr. Ernie Johnstone, veterinarian and many others.

‘Our Family Album – Cameos of Carp’ takes place at St. Paul’s United Church, 3760 Carp Rd., on Friday April 26, at 7 p.m. and Saturday, April 27, 2 p.m. Call 613-839-2155 for more information. Goodwill donation.

If you are new to the area or enjoy a trip down memory lane, bring your family and friends - this is one history lesson not to be missed, say organizers.

Co-ordinators for the show are Karen Martin and Janie Argue.

Parisioners Glenda Longsworth and her husband Richard introduced the idea to the congregation.

“We did it originally in Montreal with our youth group in the 1970s,” explained Glenda. “It was such a successful event. It was awesome.

We ended up doing it I don’t know how many times.”

The couple then moved to Vancouver where the family album was once again opened and wowed audiences while teaching them more about the community and its history.

While there, a friend of the couple got in contact to ask for the template for another Ontario rendition.

It’s been a great way for the Longsworths, who moved to Carp a couple of years ago, to get to know everyone and to learn about Carp and its history.

“It’s been a good way of getting to know Carp,” said Richard.

COMMUNITY SUPPORTIVE

Family Album has had all kinds of support from the community and organizations, including Rural Roots Theatre and Kanata Theatre.

Rev. Karen Boivin said she’s excited about the presentation and pleased it’s being put on this year, the 150th anniversary of the Carp Fair.

“I’m really excited to see it,” she said. “And to learn more about the history of the area.”

To help fill out the cast organizers welcomed non-church members to make up the cast so the event is a true community project.

EMC news â&#x20AC;&#x201C; The United States government wants Canadians to pay to enter their country to help ease their financial deficit and that isnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t sitting well with regular visitors, especially snowbirds.

The U.S. Department of Homeland Securityâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s 2014 budget requests a study to determine the feasibility of collecting a fee from pedestrians and passenger vehicles crossing between the U.S. and Canada by land.

Whether this fee would focus on those entering or exiting the United States, or both, and how much each crossing might cost has yet to be determined. â&#x20AC;&#x153;While we appreciate the fiscal challenges faced by our friends in the United States, we would prefer the U.S. government focus on ways to reduce obstacles at the border that hinder trade and tourism,â&#x20AC;? said Canadian Snowbird Association executive director Michael MacKenzie.

Fees for many commercial goods and agricultural inspections are already charged at the U.S.-Canada border and airline passengers in both countries pay significant security fees on top of their ticket prices.

Libraries bursting at seams with held items Laura Mueller laura.mueller@metroland.com

EMC news - The library is grappling with the problem of truant readers who put items on hold and never pick them up.

Minor changes to the circulation policy at the Ottawa Public Library sparked a debate and led the library board to send staff back to the drawing board on March 18.

The board shot down library staffâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s proposal to remove limits on the number of audio-visual items such as CDs and DVDs that a library user can have checked out at once.

The idea is a way to get around challenges that arise from people putting large numbers of those items on hold and checking them out in sequence.

That leads to delays for other customers and it means items are out of circulation for long periods as theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re being processed, said Jennifer Stirling, the division-wide manager of service and innovation for the library. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Our circulation is being impacted by our own policy,â&#x20AC;? she said.

Barrhaven Coun. Jan Harder, the boardâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s chairwoman, said the number of holds is increasing and it is becoming a problem at the library. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The hold business is taking up huge real estate in our libraries,â&#x20AC;? she said, adding that some branches have maxed out the amount of space they have available to store items that people put on hold. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I think this is a bigger issue,â&#x20AC;? she added.

But the problems are caused by a small number of guilty parties, said board member Christine Langlois.

R0012050262-0425

14 West Carleton Review EMC - Thursday, April 25, 2013

Library board member Kanata North Coun. Marianne Wilkinson said the issue could have been solved another way: by putting a limit on the number of items a person can put on hold at one time or adding a fine for people who donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t pick up held items when they become available, she said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I worry about this,â&#x20AC;? Wilkinson said of the staff proposal to remove check-out limits. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Somebody could take out 200 â&#x20AC;Ś It makes them unavailable for others.â&#x20AC;?

Board member Danielle LussierMeek was also concerned because she anticipated people who rack up expensive late fines if they had too many materials checked out at one time. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s unreasonable to have no limits,â&#x20AC;? Lussier-Meek said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;There could be abuse of the system.â&#x20AC;?

That shouldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t be a problem because the library alerts people before the return date and it is easy to renew items to extend the due date, staff said. At the end of the day, library users are responsible for their own accounts.

Library staff agreed to come back with a different set of recommendations in May relating to the issue of holds and circulation limits on audiovisual materials.

Two other changes did get the library boardâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s approval: the addition of a $5 per hour fine (up to $30) if people keep iPads in branches for longer than their two-hour loan period and a new $10-per-day fine (up to $50) for reference materials.

New iPads were introduced at the North Gloucester, Rosemount and Ruth E. Dickinson branches last year.

President chooses Heart Institute after familial experience Continued from front

Two and a half years ago her husband had a heart attack.

They relied heavily on the help and support of the University of Ottawa Heart Institute to make it through that dark time.

The entire team of health providers was crucial to his recovery, said Cox. “That was originally going to be my charity,” she said.

“But the Canadian Women’s Heart Health Centre is new so I though I would help promote them with the 750 women here.”

The centre is a new prevention and care program at the Heart Institute that was developed eight months ago.

“It’s about giving a voice to women and making sure that they also receive timely, accessible and equal care so there are no longer disparities (between the sexes),” said program manager Lisa McDonnell.

“We are going to creating value by transforming medical practice and by making sure we work with healthcare providers so they understand that woman aren’t built the same as men,” she said.

Heart disease symptoms for women are different.

“Up to 54 per cent in heart attacks in women go unrecognized,” said McDonnell. “That’s because typically you expect to see a crushing pain in your chest, a pain in your jaw

running down neck through your arm, the classic Hollywood heart attack, but the real news is that it’s not what we see in women.”

Symptoms often present themselves as indigestion, headaches, anxiety, vision problems which are often misattributed to menopause, she added.

These symptoms can present themselves up to a year before a deadly incident occurs.

“That is the time we could have prevented it,” said McDonnell.

Part of the centre’s mandate is to expose the signs and symptom to women so they can receive treatment before it is too late.

One in three women will experience a heart event at one time in their life.

Even with such a staggering statistic, there was no gloom, doom or worry about heart issues during the evening.

The music, food, wine, shopping, auction and laughter kept the ladies amused throughout the night.

“It’s been great. I’ve seen so many faces I haven’t seen for years,” said attendee Penny Bell. “There are 900 shades of red.”

For more information on the centre, please contact Mary McCulloch at the University of Ottawa Heart Institute at mmcculloch@ottawaheart.ca.

Mayorâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Report RURAL EXPO MAY 31ST MARK YOU CALENDAR

By Jim Watson

When people think of Ottawa, the usual images come to most minds: the Parliament Buildings, the Rideau Canal in winter, the Ottawa River, the Byward Market, etc.

These are important Ottawa institutions but they are all central in a city that is made up of an enormous LANDMASS THAT EXTENDS FAR TO THE EAST SOUTH AND WEST of those well-known landmarks. In fact, you can ďŹ t the entire landmasses of Montreal, Toronto, Calgary, Edmonton, and Vancouver within Ottawaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s boundaries and still have room to spare!

EMC news The Mississippi Veterinary Service in Pakenham became an attraction for passers-by on County Road 29.

On April 23, a female moose stood tamely in a field next to the clinic.

People pulled over and drove into the clinicâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s parking lot to capture a photo of the wild moose. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s

EMC News â&#x20AC;&#x201C; With a goal of getting Canadians to connect with nature the Canadian Wildlife Federation (CWF) is holding its fourth annual Walk for Wildlife.

Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s about getting Canadians coast to coast to coast outside again, said Jerika Bradford from CWF who is organizing event in Ottawa. â&#x20AC;&#x153;When people see how great nature is, they will be more likely to come back,â&#x20AC;? said Bradford who also said spending time in nature can help reduce your stress levels.

CWFâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s goal is to have over 15,000 kilometres logged on their website before the walk officially ends on May 22, last year walkers logged over 12,000 kilometres.

The â&#x20AC;&#x153;walkâ&#x20AC;? officially started April 7 and only two days later walkers from across the country had already logged over 3,400 kilometres online.

Bradford said that CWF anticipates beating the 15,000kilometre mark by the end of April. Although CWF has several organized walks across Canada, walkers can log kilometers from walks they take on their own time.

If you walk your dog in the evening or go for a jog, you can log it, said Bradford. Those wishing to participate further can also organize group walks which can then be listed on the CWF website for others to see.

Ottawaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s official walk will take place at the Fletcher Wildlife Garden on May 4 from 10 a.m. till 12 p.m., registration will start at 9:30. Fletcher Wildlife Garden, located off Prince of Wales before the Arboretum, features several butterfly meadows, woodlots and an amphibian pond. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a great location because itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s accessible to everyone and its pet friendly,â&#x20AC;? said Bradford.

CWF is also looking for volunteers to help with their native species garden located at their head office in Kanata. Their garden, which avoids pesticides and aims to conserve water, features a hummingbird bed, a shade bed and a drought bed.

Volunteers are needed for the usual tasks of weeding, watering and digging but CWF is also looking for photographers and individuals with computer and research skills willing to help out.

If you are interested in volunteering at the garden you can send an e-mail to cwf-gardener@cwf-fcf.org.

If you are looking for more information concerning the Walk for Wildlife campaign you can visit their website, www.WalkforWildlife.ca.

This makes Ottawa unique in Canada as we are both a large urban city and also the largest rural city in the country. The postcard images many associate with Ottawa mean that the rural areas of Ottawa can sometimes be forgotten. But from Greely, to Osgoode, to Carp, and beyond, Ottawaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s rural areas have an incredibly diverse set of offerings across the agriculture, culinary, and business sectors. These are critically important elements in our city and it is important that we do what we can to promote them to Ottawaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s residents and its visitors.

Copperdale Golf Club club house manager Randy Cain and driving range manager Gord Fluker check out conditions at the new range on opening day of the Dunrobin Road course last Friday, April 19. The family-friendly spot holds an open house this Saturday.

Copperdale Golf Club offers new driving range, open house Derek Dunn derek.dunn@metroland.com

EMC sports - One of West Carletonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s oldest golf courses is offering a slew of new products and services, and all will be on display this weekend.

Copperdale Golf Club, in operation under various names since 1960, has introduced a new driving range to the courseâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s numerous attractions. The 23-tee-off range is nestled between lengthy fairways, just beyond the 18th green. It offers a stunning view of the majestic Gatineau Hills in the distance. At 285 yards, it is a full distance - unlike many in the city with 80 per cent or less range ball velocity.

During this Saturdayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s grand opening, there will be a Test Drive for complementary use of the range, from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. Test Drive events will pop up throughout the season. They offer brief one-hour free golf sessions at the range. Watch the website, www.copperdalegolfclub.com, follow them on Facebook, or look for roadside signs for surprise times.

Copperdale is very much a family-friendly golf course. Some may feel uncomfortable

about their skill level or bringing children to a more expensive and exclusive course. No need to worry at Copperdale, where driving range manger Gord Fluke encourages newbies and kids. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The idea is to encourage people to come out and give it a try,â&#x20AC;? Fluke said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Have fun.â&#x20AC;?

The junior program is among the more affordable in the region. One offer sees a parent pay $25 for a cart and 18 holes, and their child under 12 play for free.

NEW CLUB EXPERT

There are physical changes and new services, but what has got them most excited at Copperdale is a new club expert. Marc Beauvais will soon have his CPGA courses and be set to offer lessons, club fittings, repairs and more all summer long. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s going to do a great job,â&#x20AC;? said club house manager Randy Cain, who some may remember as a long-time firefighter. The April 27 open house is 1 to 4 p.m. at 3654 Dunrobin Rd. Coun. Eli El-Chantiry will be there for a ribbon cutting and to show off his swing.

Canoe club hosts e-waste drop offs

Culinary captains

EMC events - The Ottawa River Canoe Club has joined forces with both Jack Donahue and Huntley Centennial public schools to raise awareness about the importance of disposing of e-waste correctly, and also as a joint fundraiser for all the groups.

Waste can be dropped off at either school between 9 a.m. and 3 p.m. on April 27. it is a great chance to clear house of old TVs, computers, stereos and the like.

Items the group can’t accept are large and small appliances, tools, or air conditioners, and at the same time learn more about Ottawa River Canoe Club, their camps and programming.

Leading a fine night of good food and entertainment are the cooks at the community centre in Fitzroy Harbour last Saturday afternoon. Preparing for the St. Andrew’s United annual dinner and auction are, from left, Laura Barr, Carole Williams, Win Munroe, Anita D’Arcy, and Allison Paoliello.

Green card gets the green light Laura Mueller laura.mueller@metroland.com

EMC news - OC Transpo has the goahead to roll out Presto smart cards for fare payment on July 1.

The cards wonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t be compatible with the Presto system in the GTA â&#x20AC;&#x201C; yet â&#x20AC;&#x201C; and transit commissioners were concerned about the delay in updating the cardsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; cash balance online, but those worries werenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t enough for the commission to put the brakes on the smart card fare system.

Starting May 18, OC Transpo will begin to distribute 184,000 of the remaining 200,000 free Presto cards the city initially planned to give out last year. The launch was plagued with delays and the past year has been â&#x20AC;&#x153;difficult, complex and (a) resource intensive project,â&#x20AC;? but the system is now ready to go, OC Transpo general manager John Manconi told the transit commission on April 17.

Transit commission chairwoman Coun.

Diane Deans called the final decision to OK Presto a â&#x20AC;&#x153;historic dayâ&#x20AC;? in Ottawa. After a year of delays, testing and tracking, the transit commission is more confident in moving forward with Presto now than it was a year ago, Deans added.

As with any large, technical system, there will be glitches, Manconi said.

But there are no system-wide issues that would cause concern, he added. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It certainly seems that weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve turned the corner from a mood of cynicism to optimism,â&#x20AC;? said transit commissioner and Innes Coun. Rainer Bloess.

Beyond technical problems there are other nagging issues that bothered transit commissioners.

One issue is the 24- to 48-hour delay between when customers top up the cash balance on their cards and when they have access to use that money on a bus. A delay is undesirable, commissioners agreed, but if itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s unavoidable for technical reasons, Metrolinx should at least try to ensure the delay is consistent. A range causes confusion, said new commissioner Mark Johnson during his first meeting. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It would be good to have a defined time period so as to avoid customer confusion,â&#x20AC;? Johnson said.

Manconi said he and OC Transpo will come back at some time in the future with a better solution.

Ottawa Presto cardholders wonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t yet be able to tap their cards on Presto readers in Toronto or Hamilton. There is no date on when that might happen. The GTA system will be upgraded before the end of the year and then Metrolinx will be making the decision about when to upgrade Ottawa to that same system to ensure all cards work in both regions.

A Presto replacement for paper tickets is not being addressed right now. For Para Transpo, the city will be spending $3 million to find an interim technological solution to bridge the gap between OC Transpo passes and the types of fare payments that are accepted on Para Transpo.

One of the main lessons learned over the past year was to avoid a big release of Presto cards all at once, Manconi said.

â&#x20AC;&#x153;A staged and measured release is key,â&#x20AC;? he said, but the number 1 objective is still to get the card into peopleâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s hands and get them using it.

Cards will be available in a number of ways. During the test period, demand for cards was highest through the website, www.prestocard.ca, and thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s the first spot most riders will be able to get one on May 18.

Starting May 27, riders will be able to pick up a card at city client service centres, OC Transpo sales and information centres, as well as Transitway stations on a rotating schedules.

Select library branches across the city will also begin distributing the cards starting June 3.

OC Transpo will have Presto outreach targeted at park-and-ride pass holders on May 17 and 18. Other selected groups, including seniors, community pass holders and certain community organizations and health centres will also be the focus of OC Transpoâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s efforts to distribute Presto cards over the summer. Ecopass holders will be able to get a Presto card as their annual passes expire between August and October.

The overall cost to adopt the Presto system in Ottawa has gone up to $34.2 million, but the city will only pay $31.2 million â&#x20AC;&#x201C; the rest will be covered by Metrolinx.

The provincial agency had already committed to reimbursing the city for around $3 million to cover the cost of delays and lost revenue due to the delays. Metrolinx

After a year of delays, transit commissioners agreed to support the full launch of the Presto smart card payment system for OC Transpo. The remaining 184,000 complimentary cards will be available starting May 18. Theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll go into use July 1. has now agreed to cover another $1.5 million in costs.

Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s important to remember that saving money isnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t the intent of moving to a smart-card payment system, Manconi said. The idea is to provide better service that attracts more riders, he said.

Heroines on horseback Teen volunteer riders partner with individuals with developmental disabilities at Dunrobin’s Quarry Park Debra McLean

BENEFITS OF RIDING

EMC lifestyle - The young women who volunteer each Sunday at Quarry Park are our unsung heroines. We would be unable to participate in horseback riding lessons at Quarry Park without the help of the wonderful young women who assist our riders.

Four years ago, my goal was to make sure our riders participated in lessons equal to all riders were learning to ride a horse for the first time. It was important to facility manager Beth Ross and me, that our riders learned how to ride a horse exactly the same way as other young riders learned.

Four years later, my goal continues to be met by our new riding instructor at Quarry Park, Terri Lynch.

While Beth and Terri are very impressive women, their young volunteers shine! Initially, each volunteer was primarily responsible for the safety of one horse and its rider. The volunteer leads the horse and the rider throughout the duration of the lesson. As riders and volunteers became accustomed to one another, the relationship blossomed. Soon the high school volunteers were taking charge of their rider.

Of course the horses are a major part of the team. They become one with their riders. The positive benefits of horseback riding for individuals with developmental disabilities are immeasurable. Aside from the instant joy our riders experience once they are on the horse, horseback riding helps them increase their muscle tone, posture, balance and their ability to maintain focus. The horses are tuned into each and every action of their rider. In some cases; their heightened awareness is awe inspiring.

For example, one of our riders deals with frequent daily seizures. In the past, Meagan’s seizures completely stopped while on horseback.

Unfortunately, the frequency and severity of her seizures has increased during the past year.

While we are vigilant in keeping Meagan safe; we need not worry. Her horse Lily is her protector. It is Lily who lets us know a seizure is imminent. Lily reacts differently with distinctive types of seizures. If an absence seizure is in the offing, Lily will stop walking and remain perfectly still before and during the seizure. If a tonic seizure is near, Lily will turn into the ring making a tight circle – protecting her rider.

Again, Lily stands perfectly still until the seizure is over. It is remarkable to see!

TOES UP, HEELS DOWN

SPECIAL SKILL

SHERRY HAAIMA/METROLAND

A rider and volunteer are silhouetted against the open door in the Quarry Park Equestrian Facility arena in Dunrobin where Debra McLean runs a program for individuals with developmental disabilities. The young women who assist riders are instrumental to the program.

REPETITION KEY

The riding lessons work because they are based on repetition with a progressive increased level of difficulty at each lesson. The lessons start with warm up exercises on horseback. Terri then has our riders participate in a

number of skill routines. The volunteers are aware of the ability of their riders. If the rider is able to perform the routines independently, the volunteer walks beside the horse enabling the rider to guide the horse themselves. If the rider requires assistance, the volunteer qui-

etly becomes an extension of horse and rider.

The volunteer’s ability to support their rider is seamless. Currently the routines are reminiscent of a musical ride. It is magical to see our rider’s partner up with one another and remain in unison throughout the routine.

Lily instinctively knows when Meagan is going to have a seizure. She was not taught this skill. She is totally aware of the special needs of her rider. Meagan lives to ride horses. The volunteers, Lily and my daughter Meaghan, who helps keep her safe each lesson, make it possible for Meagan to experience the joy of horseback riding.

We are so grateful for the positive contributions of the individuals involved in our riding lessons at Quarry Park– the instructors, the horses and the wonderful volunteers.

The volunteers keep our riders safe; they enable them to have fun! Are riders lives are enriched by the kindness of the volunteers.

The student volunteers are Morgann Rollin, Piper Hannas, Georgia Hannas, Madison Ness, Kassidy Dryka, Emilie Deschamps, and Paige Smith.

The adult volunteers are Brenna McIntyre, Heather Ballantyre, Julie Stanistreet, and Meaghan Chapman.

Debra McLean is owner of Greenland Country Haven.

R0012048896

During the lesson they reinforced what the instructor said; they encouraged and praised their rider upon completion of each new task.

They started to actively participate in the learning process of their rider – showing them how to hold the reins, how to sit up straight in the saddle and how to keep their toes up and heels down in the stirrups.

A unique bond developed. The volunteers willingly started to stay after each lesson to help their rider groom their horse. It became clear to me our horseback riders were not the only ones learning something new – the volunteers understanding of, and compassion for our riders, increased with every lesson. The volunteers enable our young riders with developmental disabilities as well as our young riders within the autism spectrum, to learn how to ride a horse with pride and confidence. They also make the lesson fun.

FABRICLAND IS CELEBRATING THEIR 45TH ANNIVERSARY Fabricland: Where the Smart Money Goes to Sew Up the Savings

By Brian Turner As Fabricland prepares to celebrate its 45th anniversary, their team looks back at a world of changes in clothing creation, home décor, and crafting, but what has remained constant since their first small store opened in Toronto in 1968 is the commitment to deliver exceptional product lines at the lowest price with superior customer service. Now among 170 locations from coast to coast, the Ottawa area outlets are stocking up to bring some fantastic birthday deals to those who know how to stretch their buying power to the max while having fun and showing their creative side at the same time.

While other big fabric retailers and department stores have downsized or eliminated the options for their customers in terms of filling creative fashion needs or providing substantial savings on home decorating supplies, Fabricland remains dedicated to their growing family of smart shoppers. What Fabricland learned many years ago is nothing replaces customer service and advice from experienced consultants when it comes to welcoming first-time sewers and crafters as well as keeping fabric experts supplied with all their needs. That’s why every store is staffed with friendly knowledgeable folk who are happy to lend a hand, an ear and even a thimble to get the job done.

Fabricland continues to grow and evolve to not only meet their customers’ expectations but to exceed them.

When home décor demands came from shoppers with little or no sewing experience, Fabricland premiered their ‘no-sew, ready-to-go’ home product line with ready-to-hang drapery panels, white bedding, an extensive line of drapery hardware, table linens such as placemats and runners, as well as a huge selection of decorative home accessories and much, much more... all of excellent quality and value. They called it the ‘Home Dec Centre’ and all of the Metro Ottawa stores have one. For those who like to craft their own decor, Fabricland has it all by the meter and bins of hardware.

Quilters haven’t been left out in the cold either. Fabricland has the largest selection of materials, batting, backing, and threads for quilts to warm up the coldest winter night. For those looking to recycle some older clothing with spark, it’s all bling, buttons and beads at 50% off during the anniversary sale.

When it comes to convenient locations, Fabricland has that sewn up as well. The Kanata store is at 471 Hazeldean Road (near Castlefrank), in Nepean it’s 1460 Merivale Road (between Clyde and Baseline), in Ottawa south at 1440 Walkley Road (near Albion North), in Ottawa East it’s in the Shopper’s City East Plaza at 2016 Ogilvie, and in Orleans you can find the savings at 2384 St. Joseph Blvd (just east of Orleans Blvd.). All locations have plenty of free parking and are open 7 days a week.

As an added incentive to visit the Shopper’s City East Fabricland, it has now been designated as a clearance centre with a large and varying selection of reducedto-clear items.

For a big birthday like 45, Fabricland has pulled out all the stops and bolts for big savings with 50%-off specials filling the store and 40% off of almost anything else not on sale. If that’s not enough, Fabricland will be holding a customer draw for 2 sewing machines and over $2,000 in gift certificates per store! All this action happens from April 15th to May 5th. If you want to make sure you never miss a deal like this in the future you can be kept in the loop and enjoy all the benefits of membership by joining Fabricland’s Sewing Club. For the reduced price of $20 for the balance of Fabricland’s membership year,, Sewing Club members can save 25-50% of almost everything in the store any time! No one has to wait and search the weekly flyers to plan their shopping trips when home decor and fashion needs can crop up at any time if they’re Fabricland Sewing Club Members.

And when there’s a sale on, Sewing Club members get convenient email notification and they can still take advantage by enjoying substantial discounts on regularly priced items.

For those that don’t think they have a creative flair, a stroll down Fabricland’s idea-packed aisles is all it takes to spark the inner textile artist. Find all the details at www.fabricland.ca.

Prehistoric spring in the Ottawa Valley Ole Hendrickson

EMC lifestyle - We’re having an old-fashioned Ottawa Valley spring. Ice still covers the lakes, even though the fishing huts are long gone. Snow in the highlands, especially on north-facing slopes, is feeding the creeks and rivers and keeping them flowing strong.

That being said, spring isn’t what it used to be. Imagine the Ottawa Valley 11,000 years ago.

Waves lap against towering walls of glacial ice along the Champlain Sea. Melting ice forms rivers that carve the ice and discharge water and sediments. The booming sound of a huge chunk of glacier falling in the water punctuates the silence. This part of the Atlantic is narrow and shallow, generally a tranquil place, protected from wind and wave action. Curious whales venture in, dodging the drifting icebergs.

Thousands of years under the massive Laurentide ice sheet have compressed the land surface 150 meters downward, leaving extensive areas below sea level. As the ice retreats, the ocean flows in.

The oldest fossil seashells from the Champlain Sea era found near Ottawa and Pembroke have been dated at 12,000 and 11,000 years before present (BP), respectively, indicating when these parts of the Valley became covered by the sea. Fossils older than 10,800 BP are true marine species: until then, the western Champlain Sea was nearly as salty as the open Atlantic. Partial skeletons of five whale species – beluga, humpback, finback, harbour porpoise, and bowhead – have been found. A Nov. 30, 1977 Renfrew Mercury article describes the discovery of bowhead whale bones in a gravel pit about 2 km west of White Lake. These were radiocarbon dated at 11,500 BP. Before the complete disappearance of the glaciers, beyond the seashore freshwater lakes formed in the basins of Golden, Silver, Mink, and Calabogie Lakes; and in Lakes Dore and Clear. These early lakes were far larger than those we see today.

Glacial retreat in the Ottawa Valley was part of a global process. In North America and Eurasia, giant lakes formed along the edges of the retreating ice sheets. Some of these were dammed by the ice, and when the dams failed, gigantic floods carried immense amounts of

water to the oceans. Glacial Lake Agassiz was North America’s largest glacial lake, at times extending from Saskatchewan to in the west to Quebec in the east. It formed originally in western Canada where glacial retreat began earliest, and then followed the northeast retreat of the Laurentide ice sheet for at least 5000 years. For a time, a separate large glacial lake, Lake Ojibway, spread along the ice margin in northern Ontario and Quebec.

James Teller of the University of Manitoba, the world’s foremost expert on Lake Agassiz, created a major stir in international scientific circles with his 2010 paper showing that around 13,000 BP, Lake Agassiz drained northward through the Mackenzie Valley in a massive flood, adding so much cold fresh water to the oceans that their circulation shut down and Earth went into a little ice age (known as the “Younger Dryas”) lasting about 1,500 years.

Teller follows the subsequent history of Lake Agassiz in a paper presented at the 1986 Geological Association of Canada symposium in Ottawa. By 11,700 BP it had moved east- A map of the old Champlain Sea. ward, covering parts of Saskatchewan, Manitoba, northwestern Ontario, North Dakota, and from Renfrew eastward.

The 1987 USGS Bulletin “Geological History of Glacial Lake Algonquin and the Upper Great Lakes” explains that the land surface at the North BayMattawa River outlet gradually rose (“isostatic rebound”) after removal of the weight of the ice sheet. This raised the level of the Lake Michigan, Lake Superior, and Lake Huron basins until they overflowed and carved a new outlet into Lake Erie through the St. Clair River. The North Bay outlet was abandoned between 4000 and 4500 BP. Flow volumes in the Ottawa River declined irregularly, in stages, throughout this period.

Terraces along the river’s edge (as at Petawawa Terraces Provincial Park) represent distinct periods of relatively steady flow in which the river eroded the glacial deposits along its banks.

The highest terraces are the oldest. Each spring when the snow melts and rivers run full, we can recall the great retreat of the glaciers from the Ottawa Valley, many thousands of years ago.

Quick simple fitness tips to help keep you motivated and in great shape: Get up 30-minutes earlier & get your exercise in.

If you typically take the elevator, take the stairs instead.

Take short 10-minute walks on your breaks.

Instead of grabbing a snack, take a walk or jog instead!

Break it into parts. Try fitting in 10-minutes 4 times a day.

Get to the gym when you can. There are often 2-3 times a week where you can fit the gym into your schedule, so take those times as they come.

Nothing stops you from doing a quick 20 sit-ups, push-ups, or jogging on the spot for 5-10 minutes… it all adds up!

Para users shut out of Presto Non-universal payment system disadvantages people with disabilities Laura Mueller laura.mueller@metroland.com

EMC news - Presto payment cards will come into effect July 1 for OC Transpo – but not Para Transpo.

Blocking riders who use both conventional transit and Para Transpo from using the Presto card unfairly disadvantages them, Para users told the transit commission on April 17.

“To use a metaphor, we’re at the back of the bus,” said Kevin Kinsella, who uses a wheelchair and rides both Para and conventional transit.

Kinsella said he would prefer to use Presto because it allows him to purchases passes and top up a cash balance at home, removing the need for him to navigate to an OC Transpo sales centre.

The smart-card payment system approved by the commission on the same day will also be transferable, said another delegate, Catherine Gardner. That means her companion could use her pass when she is not using it, but since Gardner won’t be able to use the cards on Para Transpo, she won’t get those benefits other transit users will receive.

OC Transpo general manager John Manconi said he is very sensitive to the situation. He couldn’t explain why past transit management didn’t make the decision to adopt a payment system that works on the entire OC Transpo system, including Para Transpo.

While he would prefer to see a Presto-based solution, Manconi said, that is “not an identified priority” for Metrolinx, the provincial agency that manages the Presto system.

“We have told them that we are not waiting any further,” Manconi said. “We can either wait, or move on; we’ve moved on and we want to find a solution for them.”

The main challenge revolves around the community pass. It is a discounted pass that many Para Transpo users buy and it means they only have to top up their fare to use the Para vans, which cost more. Community passes can also be used on conventional buses and the OTrain.

Gardner asked why OC Transpo wouldn’t allow her to show her Presto card to a Para Transpo operator, along the receipt showing she purchased a valid community pass on the card.

Troy Charter, manager of transit operations, said it would be too complex to communicate that change to 180 Para operators, riders and the taxi drivers who support Para rides as part of the service – around 90 different drivers a day.

“It may seem simple, but we want to make sure we provide a consistant service,” Charter said.

Pat Scrimgeour, the manager of transit service and reporting, said receipts don’t have the security features that assure drivers a pass or transfer is valid. But Manconi emphasized the

OC Transpo is working on a standalone electronic fare payment system for Para Transpo that would also be accepted on conventional OC Transpo vehicles.

Scraptavaganza for CHEO Sherry Haaima sherry.haaima@metroland.com

EMC lifestyle - Thirty-two scrapbookers converged at the Kinburn Community Centre April 20 for a 17-hour scrapbooking marathon in support of the Children’s Hospital of Eastern Ontario.

It was a long haul, said organizer Bonnie Ellis, but it was lots of fun.

Ellis is grateful to all those who came forward to make the event a success. She’s hoping to make it an annual event.

The avid scrapbooker and vendor said CHEO, with its variety of care and programs for youth, was a natural choice to benefit from the fundraiser.

“There are too many youth suicides in the area,” said Ellis. CHEO is a great resource, she said.”

She thanked vendors, participants and donors for making the day a success.

Cathy Trebinskie is one of the many Ellis wishes to thank.

“She is with PartyLite Candles and she donated prizes for the welcome package and helped out on the day,” said Ellis.

“The community centre has been a big supporter,” said Ellis. Nu-Tech Precision Metals, Arnprior No Frills and Metro and Renfrew Wal Mart all donated to the event.

“A lot of people gave gifts and donated prizes,” she said.

CHEO was also a huge supporter, including listing the event on its website, which drew more participants.

Scrapbooking is something Ellis has been doing for years and among her favourite topics

Mary grew her own garden through catalogue

EMC lifestyle - The Steele-Briggs seed catalogue was now mine.

Mother’s order had long since arrived. It came when the snow was deep around the house, and the sprigs of vegetables poking through the ground in the garden were still a long way off.

All over the house, for weeks, Mother had been urging little flat wood boxes of earth to show signs of life. These boxes emerged every year, filled with earth by Father, and until it was time to plant the sprouts out in the garden, they sat on benches and chairs, watched and watered

by Mother.

The window sills were too narrow to hold the boxes, and so finding a place to sit in the kitchen was often a challenge this time of year.

When Mother first planted the seeds that would have arrived in the mail C.O.D., I was wild with excitement. I checked every day to see if anything had sprung up, but after days and days of constant vigilance, I lost interest, and instead concentrated on the seed catalogues, for which I had great plans.

Using one of the rough-lined scribblers Mother had bought from Ritz’s Drug Store in Renfrew on the One-Cent-Sale, I re-created my

very own seed catalogue. When I was finished, it didn’t at all look like the Steele-Briggs one that came in wintertime.

The first thing I did was cut out all the pictures in the catalogue that were in colour. This job alone could wile away many hours at the kitchen table in the evening. Then I sorted the pictures in two piles, one for vegetables and one for flowers.

When that job was finished, I next arranged the flowers into little piles, with my very favourites on top, and my least favourite ones on the bottom.

I was especially fond of the pictures of the roses. The red ones. And there were pink and yellow ones too, but the blood-red ones, I thought were very special. Mother never ordered roses, which was a big disappointment to me, but she said the ground out at Northcote wasn’t good enough for rose bushes.

My sister Audrey said it had more to do with the hard work involved in looking after rose bushes than it had to do with the soil. Even when I told Audrey I would be glad to look after them, she said we would never see rose bushes on the farm at Northcote and to put the idea out of my mind! And so I had to content myself with pictures cut out of the Steele-Briggs seed catalogue.

I was at the stage in my life when I loved to draw. And so I drew little gardens on each page of the big scribbler with the rough pages and the shiny black cover. I coloured the pages with my crayons, and I thought I had done a good enough job to even take the finished book to show Miss Crosby at the Northcote School.

Again, my sister Audrey advised me to keep it at home, since it may cause bad Marguirite to go into a fit of jealousy, and goodness knows

what that could mean.

There was no money for anything fancy like a little bottle of mucilage. Mother did something magically with boiled water and flour, and we used that to stick paper-to-paper and it worked perfectly well.

And so I would begin to create my very own catalogue. The roses went onto a page first. The red ones. Another page of drawings, and then the pink roses, and finally, the yellow ones.

By the time I had worked through all the little piles of cut-out flowers and pasted them into the scribbler, each separated by a crayon-coloured drawing, the scribbler was so fat, it was impossible to keep it closed. But if nothing else, those scribblers were a bargain. There were still plenty of empty pages left for the pictures of my favourite vegetables. I was never that fond of turnips or cabbages, but blood-red tomatoes and green cucumbers, yellow beans, and radishes all had their own pages in my ‘seed catalogue’.

My brother Emerson, who was a far better artist that I was, and never let me forget it, laughed at my attempt at drawing gardens in my scribbler. But Mother said my pictures reminded her of the big calendar we got from Scott’s Hardware that year which was a country scene taken by a real camera. And that was good enough for me!

When finally the little wood boxes of earth scattered all over the house started to sprout, and finally grow a few inches, my interest was renewed. I again looked every day to see their growth, even though my sister Audrey reminded me “a watched pot never boils,” which I finally realized had nothing to do with a pot on the stove.

I kept my hand-made seed catalogue under my bed for the weeks it took for the wood boxes to produce enough growth to move the plants to the garden and the flower beds. Every so often I would take it out, swelled as it was to three times its size, and leaf through it, anxious for the day I could take it out to the garden.

Because when you could finally tell which plants would be carrots, and which would be cucumbers, and which flower bed would produce asters or cosmos, I would spend many a happy hour outside with my catalogue, matching my cut-out pictures to what was taking new life in the ground back in those Depression years when we were expected to amuse ourselves without benefit.

It was a simple way of spending many happy hours free of costly toys. Like making rag dolls, whittling, carving sling-shots, boiling weeds to make coloured water, and building sandcastles on the banks of the Bonnechere River, the price was just right.

Girl power hits Algonquin College Skills Canada taps into career possibilities Jennifer McIntosh jennifer.mcintosh@metroland.com

EMC news - Kaitlyn Reid-Legge, a student at Rideau High School, is thinking about her future.

That’s why the Grade 11 student headed to Algonquin College on April 9 to network with women in different careers.

“I have done dual credit programs and a schism (career focused) program,” ReidLegge said, adding she has also participated in provincial youth-intern programs.

“I am seriously looking at where I will end up,” she said.

Of all the careers she got a chance to learn about at the Skills Canada-led event, Reid-Legge said she was most interested in welding.

Shannon Kuhn, a student at Notre Dame High School said she was interested in learning more about working in the trades.

There were students from across the city attending the third annual event – aimed at encouraging female high school students to look at non-traditional career paths.

The girls heard from Kayla O’Brien, a

graduate of Algonquin College and a sheet metal worker. She took questions about her salary and brought some samples of her work.

Other speakers included a filmmaker, a fire prevention officer, a business technology student and an IT worker.

“It was really neat that it was girl focused,” Kuhn said. “Boys can tend to take over at these types of events, so it was nice to be able to ask questions and learn without the distraction.”

Julia Mazzarello, another student from Notre Dame High School, was interested in the talk by Lois Seigel, who workers as a photographer, filmmaker, musician and writer.

Mazzarello attended the dinner because she wants to attend Algonquin’s social work program.

“It would have been great if there had been a social worker here,” she said.

The networking dinners were launched across Canada in 2000 in response to a minimal number of women entering careers in the skilled trades.

The April 9 event at Algonquin boasted 53 attendees from 15 different schools.

Earth Day: 13 things everyone can do in 2013 EMC news - On April 22nd, the world celebrated Earth Day. Sustainable food and agriculture systems can play a big role in preserving the environment by helping to improve soil health, protecting biodiversity, and mitigating climate change.

Earth Day is a great opportunity for eaters, farmers, and food businesses to make changes in their diets, shopping habits, and production practices that will promote sustainable, healthy food throughout the year.

Agriculture contributes to some 30 percent of global greenhouse gas emissions.

And the environmental damage brought on by the agricultural sector poses significant threats to the industry itself.

But there’s a better way to produce—and eat—food.

Here are 13 recommendations from Food Tank for ways to support the future of food, health, and agriculture: • Eat more colors The colors of fruits and vegetables are signs of nutritional content. A richly-colored red tomato has high levels of carotenoids such as lycopene, which the American Cancer Society reports can help prevent cancer, as well as heart disease. The relationship between nutrients and color is also true for other foods.

• Buy food with less packaging Discarded packaging makes up around one-third of all waste in industrialized countries, with negative impacts on the climate, and air and water quality. The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency’s analysis of different packaging for tomatoes found that polyethylene terephthalate (PET) clamshell packaging increases tomatoes’ associated carbon emissions by 10 percent. The most effective way to limit the impact of packaging waste is to prevent it.

• Choose seasonal produce Earth Day offers a great opportunity to bring more seasonal fruits and vegetables into diets. Many farmers markets, including the New York City Greenmarkets, offer guides about which products are in season. Locally sourced, seasonal products can also be found at major grocery stores.

Another way to get seasonal foods is to sign up for a weekly CSA, which provides a mix of fresh, seasonal produce throughout the year.

• Get in touch with agriculture This time of year, many people are starting to plan vacations. A great way to skip the crowds, save money, and get both children and adults in touch with agriculture is

to book a farm-stay through World Wide Opportunities on Organic Farms (WWOOF).

WWOOF runs networks in most countries around the world, offering individuals and families the opportunity to directly support small-scale family farmers.

• Get creative in the kitchen Shopping at farmers markets, which often have a wide selection of less-ordinary produce such as celeriac, sunchokes, or kohlrabi, can prevent “food ruts” by helping consumers try new foods.

When looking for inspiration, many popular recipe blogs, such as smitten kitchen, allow users to search by ingredient, as well as season.

• Invest in perennial crops Perennial plants—plants that grow back every year— tend to hold water in soil more effectively than annuals and help prevent erosion. Their extensive roots also allow them to better access nutrients and water, reducing the need for artificial fertilizer. Researchers from the University of Illinois found that perennial prairie grasses are up to four times as water efficient as row crops such as corn and wheat.

The Land Institute works to breed perennial varieties of corn, wheat, rice, and other annual crops.

transplanting into the soil, and DIY foods such as homemade oat or almond milk can all add a creative twist to healthy eating and sustainable agriculture.

• Cook in batches and freeze for later Planning meals in advance can help reduce stress around cooking. It also helps reduce food waste, which is a big problem in industrialized countries A great way to reduce waste and make planning easy is to cook large batches of a single meal, such as soups or curries, which can be frozen and reused on short notice later in the week. Preparing large amounts of food at once saves energy during cooking, while freezing helps prevent nutrient loss in fruits and vegetables.

• Brighten your outlook At the recent Warwick Economics Summit in February, Warwick University Economics Professor Dr. Andrew Oswald presented his research on health and happiness, focusing on the link between happiness and consumption of fruits and vegetables. His team of researchers found that eating more fruits and vegetables directly improves a person’s mental wellbeing, separate from other variables such as income level and how much meat a person ate.

• Reclaim abandoned spaces As populations continue to expand, especially in cities, reclaiming unused land and buildings for food production can help meet growing demand. One new model is The Plant, a former meatpacking plant in Chicago that has been converted into an indoor vertical farm. The Plant currently runs an aquaponics farm, growing plants without soil using waste from its manmade tilapia pools.

• Build local and global food communities A great way to get involved in food and agriculture issues is with Slow Food International, an organization with more than 1,300 groups around the world called convivia. These groups support healthy, sustainable diets and traditional food cultures. In addition to local initiatives, Slow Food convivia also arrange regional and international events on important food and agriculture issues, such as Slow Food València’s recent conference on the influence of food in health and disease.

• DIY Many Do-It-Yourself (DIY) food projects are easy and fun. Turning old t-shirts into produce bags to save plastic, starting seeds in eggshells, which can then be crushed for

• Use crop rotation Crop rotation is an important way to preserve soil nutrients, prevent erosion, and protect against crop diseases and pests. In the central Brazilian state of Mato Grosso, agronomists at Agro Norte have developed new varieties of rice and dry beans that are well suited to the region’s tropical climate. By incorporating rice and beans into their yearly harvests, local soybean farmers can reduce the spread of soybean rust and nematodes, two of the biggest threats to their crops. The system also improves soil quality and provides jobs at times when soy and corn are not harvested.

• Embrace conviviality around the table Talking and laughing while sharing food is a uniquely human experience. Conviviality, joyful and friendly interaction, is found at markets and around the dinner table, and it supports healthy relationships and healthy bodies. The Barilla Center for Food & Nutrition considers convivial food culture one of the most critical aspects of food and agriculture, alongside health, hunger alleviation, and sustainable development.

This week is a great chance to work toward making 2013 a year for sustainable food and agriculture!
