News - When six-year-old Bridget Rose Zavitske smiles, she lights up the room.

It’s a contagious grin, belying her sweet and loving nature to those around her.

She loves to dance, to draw, to play hockey and soccer. She loves animals of all types, her friends and the colour red.

She just graduated senior kindergarten at Stonecrest Elementary where her favorite subject is gym.

And yet she manages to accomplish it all with Stage IV Wilm’s tumor.

This cancer typically occurs in young children and effects the kidneys. It has cost Bridget her left kidney. It has also spread to her lungs and lymph nodes.

It spread quickly.

On June 17, the family rushed to CHEO’s ER and three days and a whirlwind of tests later, Bridget was on the operating table.

Two weeks after that, she started chemotherapy and radiation.

Bridget is much more than her disease Continued from front

“She has been pretty sick from that,” said her mother Christy McNeely Zavitske. “We are hoping the sickness doesn’t last. We hear the first few weeks of chemo are the worst.”

Bridget doesn’t let her illness doesn’t define her.

“A week from her surgery date she was at her soccer game cheering on her team,” said McNeely Zavitske. “I was stressing out making sure she sat still.”

Her strength and tenacity has allowed her to

return to her home in Dunrobin much sooner than doctors anticipated.

This is to everybody’s relief.

Her siblings, Maddy, 16, Stella, 7, and Miller, 2-and-a-half, were extremely concerned and were acutely anxious to see the youngest daughter home.

They were overjoyed to have her back. The family is very close.

“We come from very close families,” said McNeely Zavitske. “My family is from Carleton Place and Dave’s (Bridget’s father) is from Renfrew.”

This closeness has been demonstrated by their community’s unwavering support.

Nicknamed Bridget’s Army, friends, family, random strangers and local businesses have come out of the woodwork to give their support.

“I honestly can’t believe the support we have received from family, friends and total strangers,” said Bridget’s mother.

They’ve organized a food drive, school and community groups have sent the family monetary gifts as well as presents for Bridget.

Family friend Jennifer Facchin has created a team of runners, named Bridget’s Brigades, who will be running 100KM from Ottawa to Montebello for the Relay to End Kids Cancer on Oct. 5.

The entire family composed of Maddy, 16, Stella, 7, and Miller, 2-and-a-half as well as parents Christy McNeely Zavitske and Dave Zavitske are ecstatic to see Bridget Rose come home early from the hospital. They are receiving support from their community who they nicknamed Bridget’s Army. hospital she received hundreds and hundreds of emails and photos.

Seeing all these kind words and pictures of friends kept her spirits up during the worst of it.

“The gifts, and cards and flowers, from her school friends, dance school friends, family, old friends of ours, and complete strangers, really made her so happy,” said her mother.

Bridget is still very much a little girl and it can be difficult to manage Bridget’s youthful exuberance and medical caution.

“I give her space. I am also strong for her and don’t let her take advantage of being sick,” said McNeely Zavitske. “As long as she is happy, I stay

happy.

There is a tough journey ahead for Bridget and her family, but knowing she has her own army helps tremendously.

Wildlife strategy doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t go far enough: Opponents laura.mueller@metroland.com

7,&2

News - The cityâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s new wildlife strategy doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t go far enough to protect beavers before the agriculture and rural affairs committee approved it on July 4.

The city has been picking away at a wildlife strategy since early 2010, when council ordered a review following a series of issues with coyotes. Since then, a number of moose have had to be destroyed and urban sprawl has introduced suburban homes to areas that have habitats for animals like wild turkeys.

Liz White, spokesperson, Ontario Wildlife Coalition, said the cityâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s claim that he strategy will reduce the number of beaver killed is unrealistic. She sat on the working group for the wildlife strategy but resigned in 2012 over disagreements with the policyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s direction. â&#x20AC;&#x153;There are no protections for beaver in the vast majority of the city of Ottawa if you pass this strategy,â&#x20AC;? she said.

Currently, the city traps and kills around 150 beavers each year. Stow said the city could reduce the number of beavers it traps and kills by half over 10 to 15 years if it makes better use of â&#x20AC;&#x153;beaver deceiversâ&#x20AC;? to protect culverts.

The fences or other devices are used to block off the area of infrastructure like culverts, which the beavers tend to build dams around, damaging and flooding the culverts.

But there is no funding in place to pay for those devices, which can cost between $200 and $2,000, depending in the type, Stow said.

The strategy proposing a â&#x20AC;&#x153;balanced and humane approachâ&#x20AC;? received little vetting from about a dozen delegates who spoke to planning committee. For the most part, they focused on deficiencies in the process used to arrive at the strategy. They called for an additional public meeting.

Rideau-Goulbourn Coun. Scott Moffatt urged speakers to provide substantive feedback so the committee could address if there are parts of the policy that need beefing up. There is still opportunity to make minor changes before the policy goes to council on July 17, said Nick Stow, the city planner who authored the report. He encouraged people to submit â&#x20AC;&#x153;constructive feedback.â&#x20AC;?

Stow said another public meeting wouldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t be helpful because the major issues, conflicts and solutions have been identified. Rehashing worries about beaver management, euthanasia and educational materials â&#x20AC;&#x201C; the most controversial elements â&#x20AC;&#x201C; would just be repetitive and not productive, Stow said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The biggest issue is (that) we have is people from the urban area moving into the rural area,â&#x20AC;? said West CarletonMarch Coun. Eli El-Chantiry.

People who grew up in a rural area often have the basic knowledge and skills needed to deal with wildlife, but people from an urban area may not.

The new wildlife strategy emphasizes that many human-wildlife conflicts can be prevented or solved by better understanding the dynamic. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Many conflicts result from carelessness or lack of knowledge of private citizens and public officials regarding the needs and behaviours of wildlife, especially urban wildlife. Property owners may inadvertently create the conditions that attract wildlife and put them at risk,â&#x20AC;? the proposed strategy reads.

Alastaire Henderson, a Lowertown east resident who spoke to the committee, said she felt the consultation on the strategy started out with more consideration of the effects of wildlife in urban areas as well as rural areas, but became a rural-focused issue as the project drew to a close.

Iola Price, a New Edinburgh resident and wildlife biologist, agreed. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The growth of trees and shrubs in urban areas â&#x20AC;Ś means wildlife will continue to move into the urban areas,â&#x20AC;? she said.

El-Chantiry said the city needs to do more than simply post information on a website when it comes to informing the public about what to do when they encounter wildlife.

councillors could use to help promote the strategy and offer opportunities for input to contribute to tweaking the strategy and its implementation.

The cityâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s role is limited when it comes to dealing with conflicts between people and animals on private property. Most of that responsibility is supposed to lay with the provincial Ministry of Natural Resources. But that department has been neutered over time by incremental budget cuts, ElChantiry said â&#x20AC;&#x201C; leaving the city to pick up the slack. â&#x20AC;&#x153;In the absence of the MNR doing their job, we are trying to be nice (and) pick up the slack,â&#x20AC;? he said.

Stow said the city does put together an information package for new residents, but admitted many people probably donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t bother reading it. He said adding a wildlife resources officer would create a point person who could respond to concerns and undertake targeted education. The city will be using the wildlife strategy as direction when it other documents and educational materials that will be needed to support the strategy.

Planning an urban wildlife speaker series and additional school outreach should also help spread the word about how to deal with wildlife, Stow said. City planning manager Lee Ann Snedden added that her department could write up some materials the

Harbour Days are here again Patricia Leboeuf pleboeuf@metroland.com

News â&#x20AC;&#x201C; If you believe that Fitzroy Harbour isnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t a happening place, come pay a visit to the annual Harbour Days and be proven sorely wrong.

Held this year from July 11 to 13, the decades-long tradition has grown from a simple three-pitch tournament to a veritable fun fair. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s an event where we try to offer something to everybody in the community,â&#x20AC;? said co-organizer Kellie Shrimpton. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Everything for every age group from kids to seniors and everybody in between.â&#x20AC;?

The addition of a new picnic shelter near the Fitzroy Harbour Community Centre will allow for some shade while attendees enjoy the many activities such as the family night bingo on Thursday. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s extra special this year because we can do the bingo rain or shine,â&#x20AC;? said Shrimpton. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s really fun. We have prizes and treats. Kids and seniors come out to play that.â&#x20AC;?

The activity roster grows every year. The festival is setting up its first ever bike rodeo and safety workshop, hosted by Safer Roads Ottawa. Using the rink as an arena, kids will learn safe riding methods, decorate their bicycles, enjoy several skill testing activities and receive a few extra treats.

The rodeo beings at 6:15 p.m. on July 12, and concludes with a bike parade. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The Ottawa Safety Council believes that by teaching children early on (through their Cycle Safe Bike Rodeos) the A-B-Câ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s of safe riding, the 2-V-1 approach to helmet wearing, the importance of being visible and using the proper turn signals,â&#x20AC;? said Manager of Public Safety Education and Human Resources Kathleen Cameron in an email. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Parents will feel more confident their children are safe when out cycling.â&#x20AC;?

Another fun activity that is new this year is the air conditioned video game trailer. For a small fee, people of all ages will be able to stay cool and give their thumbs a workout in front of the big screen.

Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s also an opportunity to just get outside, enjoy the sunshine and make some friends. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Fitzroy is a very dynamic community and itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s nice to give everybody the chance to come out,â&#x20AC;? said Shrimpton. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It gives them something to do, see each other and socialize outside of organize sports.â&#x20AC;?

On July 11, a softball skill clinic for kids will be held at 6 p.m., allowing the kiddies to refine their ball throwing. It will be followed by several fastball games. Simultaneously, the family outdoor bingo and the Texas Holdâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;Em game will be held at 7 p.m.

The following day, the three-pitch tournament begins at 6 p.m. while the Kidsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; Bike Rodeo is held at 6:15 p.m. at the rink. A Black Light Dance, specially tailored for youth, will follow at 7:30 p.m. The new picnic shelter will

be official dedicated at 8:30 p.m., accompanied by the lyrical sounds of â&#x20AC;&#x153;3â&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a Crowd.â&#x20AC;?

On July 13, the real fun begins with an all day kidsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; fair, comprised of a fun run, ball hockey, the Cowguysâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; comedy, juggling and circus stunts, kidsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; rides, splash machine and much more. The three-pitch tournament also continues starting at 8 a.m.

The silent auction, the video game arcade, live music, social tent and a tasty barbecue is just fraction of the overall all day entertainment.

Activities times and dates may fluctuate according to weather and other circumstances. For more information please contact Lisa Dolan/Adamn Brown at 613-623-8867, Debbie Baker at 613-622-5959, or Sarah Hanniman at 613-580-2424 ext. 43307.

Bay Day offers fun-filled weekend Patricia Leboeuf pleboeuf@metroland.com

Entertainment - The summer festivities continue as more Bay Day fun rolls in just in time for the weekend.

Activities for young and old will be held at the Constance Bay Community Centre as well as the nearby the Royal Canadian Legion 616 on July 12 and 13.

Funds raised during the event will go towards the Sandhills Project, which will renovate the community centre. â&#x20AC;&#x153;They are turning it into a leisure centre,â&#x20AC;? said event coordinator Penny Johnson. â&#x20AC;&#x153;So we need to raise quite a bit of money. I believe that whatever we raise, the city will also help out and we can start to create this wonderful thing.â&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x153;We donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t have enough room for events,â&#x20AC;? she added. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The community

centre is booked all the time. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s very hard. Some people had a meeting in the change room.â&#x20AC;?

Friday evening kicks off the weekend with a Texas Holdâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;em poker tournament, starting at 7 p.m.

At the legion, the 616 Fish and Game Club is hosting the annual Seniorsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; Boat Ride.

The event is free for all seniors, but reservations are needed. Contact the Sandhills Seniors at 613-8322082 or email RCL616info@cbbca. ca to guarantee a spot.

POKER RUN ON SATURDAY

On July 13, the Sandhills Poker Run starts and finishes at 10 a.m. at the Point Beach with stops all over the area. There is a fee of $30 to enter and there are prizes to be won.

The rest of the day will prove to be the most colourful with an old fashion Family Carnival Fun Day held from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. there

will be bouncy structures, all sorts of games and entertaiment, carnival treats, a big barbecue and the Cowguy and his juggling and tricks will be part of the fun.

The non-profit animal rescue people from Constance Creak Wildlife Rescue and Reptiles Rock will also pay a visit to teach the young and young-at-heart about these beasties.

SALSA NIGHT

The community centre will heat up with a lively Salsa Night, featuring the Caribbean flair of the Latin Breeze Band and the Venezuelan Folklore Dance Group â&#x20AC;&#x153;Churun Meru.â&#x20AC;? A tapas bar will find hungry revelers. The dance costs 10$ while the tapas bar is $5. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Just tons of fun,â&#x20AC;? said Johnson. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I hope to get everybody to come out.â&#x20AC;?

Lifestyle - The Royal Canadian Legion branch 616 was host to the beginning of a new era with regard to the Canada Day Flotilla in Constance Bay. After a departure from the Flotilla, in favour of a Canada Day parade, the members of the branch voted in favour of a return to the annual flotilla.

It was delightful to see so many boats participate in the flotilla, which was a salute to Korean War Veteran’s.

No fanfare at city hall for targeted rezonings Laura Mueller laura.mueller@metroland.com

COLONEL BY DRIVE

Similarly, expressed

residents concerns

about changes to zoning for lots along Colonel By Drive in Old Ottawa South. Barry Hobin, a well-known local architect and owner of one of the 39 affected properties, said he was completely unaware of the proposal to limit development potential on his lot.

“I have had no notice whatsoever of this event. I happened to find out by accident,” he said. “If you’re going to rezone my property, I would expect the notice.”

The changes would limit new buildings to nine metres heigh instead of the current 11-m limit. Most of the homes in the area are around 7.5 m tall, but some new homes are taller. The changes also impose a heritage overlay, which restricts some redevelopment, including the size of additions on the rear of homes.

“This is essentially a community that was willing to impose restrictions on itself,” Capital Coun. David Chernushenko said.

Chernushenko was surprised to hear some

Correction Saturday, July 20th book signings for Ryan’s Legacy - How to Survive the Loss of Your Loved One by J.J. Southwell (Judy Cressman) are 11 a.m. to 1 p.m. at the Book Nook in Perth and at Read’s Book Shop in

residents were unaware of the zoning study.

He said he personally delivered flyers to each home and included it in his newsletters and on his website, and there were public meetings and media coverage of the issue. In the report to planning committee, Chernushenko is quoted saying the process represents “a model of community involvement.”

Hobin said he didn’t understand why the city would change the rules now, given that a number of

new homes that don’t conform to the new rules have already been built along the canal.

The planning committee approved a “grace period” until September 2014 for existing applications that have been filed to develop properties

under the old zoning.

That seemed to satisfy planning lawyer January Cohen, who told the committee her client had already applied for a building permit after buying a lot at the corner of Leonard Street a few weeks ago. Her client was unaware of

any potential changes to the zoning, Cohen said.

“We do take issue with the notice,” she said. “There were a series of meetings with a select group … and then there were public meetings.”

Cohen was referring to a work-

ing group of a small group of affected residents who met regularly to discuss the zoning with Nancy Meloshe, the planning consultant hired by the city. Meloshe presented options and preferred changes at a public meeting for all residents.

News - Targeted rezonings the city undertook to ease community concerns were not met with universal support at planning committee on June 25.

The first two rezonings proposed by the city’s newly minted zoning consistency team angered some residents and confused others.

Carol Vranjes, who represents the owner of one property on Greenbank Road that was rezoned, called the exercise a waste of money for the city, even though her client will benefit financially.

“I know the (height) increase is a benefit to us,” she said. “(But) this can still be challenged by developers … So what has really been accomplished with the work undertaken?”

Attendance at meetings leading up to the rezoning of 171, 173 and 175 Greenbank Rd. was very low, Vranjes said, because there is no plan for development there so neighbours don’t see the issue as urgent.

She urged the city to spend money on more pressing issues.

The rezoning means those properties on Greenbank can be redeveloped with buildings of up to four storeys in height instead of three storeys. In response to concerns expressed by neighbours backing onto the site, the city boosted setbacks in the backyard to 10 metres instead of the usual 7.5 m. That bothered the Coptic church, which owns one of the properties and has expressed an interest in building a retirement home there.

The Greenbank zoning study was instigated by the approval of a five-story, 61-unit apartment building nearby at Greenbank and Craig Henry Drive.

The focused zoning study for 171, 173 and 175 Greenbank Rd. will set the stage for a larger discussion about the potential for denser development along arterial roads as the city updates its Official Plan.

Byelections only delay inevitable

B

yelections are traditionally an opportunity for voters to protest public policy and punish the government.

But Premier Kathleen Wynne has taken it one step further by scheduling five byelections on Aug. 1 â&#x20AC;&#x201C; a couple days before the start of a long weekend â&#x20AC;&#x201C; and in effect punishing the voters, by staging a vote during the dead of summer. The byelections were triggered by the resignations of five Liberals, including former premier Dalton McGuinty, long-time MPP of Ottawa South.

The scheduling of the byelections is a little suspicious -- is the government hoping to escape the lash of the voter by staging them during a time that will attract the minimum number of people?

Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re not talking about the dyed-in-wool Liberal/ Conservatives/NDP supporters, the kind who would cast their ballots in the middle of a hurricane.

No, the timing of the summer byelection is aimed squarely at the balance of the electorate: the undecideds, the swing vote and, of course, the cottage country enthusiasts.

In a perfect world, every Ontarian would take it as their duty to vote in every election, be they federal, provincial or municipal.

But we donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t live in a perfect world, and we

only need to look at the dismal turnout for the last provincial election to prove that.

A byelection figures to attract a remarkably smaller crowd. When scheduling an election, a government should endeavour to hold it during a time period designed to attract the most people possible.

Unfortunately, this is a truism that only holds if the government actually wants people to vote.

In fact, Premier Kathleen Wynne wants to avoid an election â&#x20AC;&#x201C; byelection or general â&#x20AC;&#x201C; for as long as humanly possible.

For the few months sheâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s been in power, the fledgling premier has been bailing water for the Good Ship Liberal, cleaning up the mess left behind

by Dalton McGuinty, who resigned shortly before the government was hammered with scandals, such as the gas plant fiasco and a police investigation of the Ornge air ambulance service. Meanwhile, the electorate waits with baited and steaming breath, looking to wreak vengeance on the Liberals by cleaning house in the next general election.

While we commend the political acumen of our premier, she might want to consider simply biting the bullet and holding a general election â&#x20AC;&#x201C; not during a civic holiday â&#x20AC;&#x201C; as soon as possible.

To do otherwise is just delaying the inevitable.

Coming soon to a corner store near you â&#x20AC;&#x201C; or not

T

here was some excitement in the newspapers recently over the possibility of beer and wine being sold in corner stores in Ontario. This is always a big story whenever it reappears, as it always does.

A good guess is that it is a big story because beer and wine are important to journalists, the people who make the decisions about whatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a big story. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not important because journalists like beer and wine more than the next fellow does. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s important because journalists think it should be more important.

Thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a self-image thing at work here.

Newspaper people have long had the reputation of being hard drinkers. For some reason they like that reputation, even though it has long ceased to be deserved. Once it certainly was, but these days, if you go out to lunch with five newspaper guys, the heavy drinker will be the one ordering Perrier while the others all have tap water.

Anyway, beer in the corner store becomes a big story, just like the ones that say wine is good for your heart. Wishful thinking is what it is and journalists are just as capable of it as anyone else.

This yearâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s version of the big story carried the headline â&#x20AC;&#x153;Sousa wonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t rule out store

CHARLES GORDON Funny Town alcohol sales.â&#x20AC;? This is a bit of a tipoff that beer and wine in corner grocery stores isnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t much closer than it ever was. When a politician is asked a question and wonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t answer definitely one way or another, the journalistâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s last resort is to ask: â&#x20AC;&#x153;Would you rule it out?â&#x20AC;?

Very few politicians dare to rule anything out completely, because they need to leave room to change their minds. So they say no, they wouldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t rule it out, and you get a headline like that.

Charles Sousa, the finance minister of Ontario, told reporters that there are no plans to change the structure of the Liquor Control Board of Ontario. His predecessor as finance minister turned down a request only a year ago to allow convenience stores to sell beer and wine. But then -- â&#x20AC;&#x153;asked repeatedly

Wednesday whether heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d allow convenience stores to sell booze, Sousa wouldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t rule it out.â&#x20AC;?

He wouldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t rule it in either, despite being asked repeatedly, and probably for good reason. No one has come up with much in the way of justification for making the change.

Customers arenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t suffering from the current system. In all but the most remote areas, no one is very far away from a Beer Store or an LCBO. The main impetus for the current discussion is the Macâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s convenience store chain, which says it will create jobs.

It might also create trouble, which is probably why previous Ontario governments havenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t ruled the idea in. It is difficult enough now to keep booze out of the hands of underage drinkers and those who have had more than enough in an evening. Putting the corner store into the picture is going to increase the difficulty.

Sure, the idea of creating jobs is nice, but the people in those jobs will have an unfair burden placed upon them. While employees for the LCBO and the Beer Store are wellpaid and well-trained to handle difficult situations, is it fair or realistic to ask the same of a convenience store employee, often working alone late at night?

If some greater good was involved, maybe that would be worth the risk, but it is difficult to see where the greater good is. Shorter distances, longer hours? Certainly Charles Sousaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s predecessors have had difficulty seeing it. They might even think that Ontario has more urgent priorities, even if wine really is good for your heart.

The only remaining question is why, given all this, Sousa is not more unequivocal on the subject. It may just be that he understands his role in the press conference games journalists play.

I wouldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t rule that out.

Shelter should let adopted cats go outside I couldn’t help noticing, while reading a letter to the editor a while back about the troubles with adopting cats from the Arnprior shelter, the similarities between that couple’s circumstances and our own.

My wife and I adopted two cats from the Arnprior shelter almost two months ago.

We learned from the staff there that black cats are difficult to place as fewer people want them, so we adopted two black cats called Daniel and Boo Boo (Now Blaze, due to a white mark on his chest, and Boo).

We had inquired about a threelegged cat and a one-eyed cat and were at once disappointed and delighted to learn that they’d both been spoken for.

We have adopted many cats over the years, three from the Arnprior Shelter about 15 years ago, and a few feral cats along the way since then.

We live in a rural setting in a house just under 3,000-sq,-ft.m on a six-acre lot bounded by other large wooded lots, at the end of a cul-desac, with a long driveway, and have a library with a fireplace and comfort-

able laps and chairs where many cats have enjoyed warming up and drying off over the years.

It sounded eerily similar to the ‘cat paradise’ setting described by the family who tried unsuccessfully to adopt a cat named Daniel from Arnprior.

We believe in letting cats be cats.

Just as it is better to have loved and lost than never to have loved at all, we believe it is better to provide a cat with all the advantages that we can, yet still allow them to be cats.

The only cats that we have lost, likely to predators (we have seen both fishers and coyotes in our yard), have been some of the feral cats, who had a tendency to wander farther from the house in winter. (After a considerable amount of notices and phone calls and asking around, we just adopted and neutered them, we didn’t turn them in to any shelter).

The feral cats, incidentally, were so grateful to have a warm home and access to food that we found them to be very affectionate and appreciative of attention, and wonderful pets.

Our other cats all lived to ripe old ages and passed away from natural causes.

Back to Boo and Daniel, who is lounging on the back of my easy chair purring loudly against the back of my neck as I write this.

After giving the new cats a few weeks to get used to us, their new surroundings, and our one remaining cat, Sly, also an alumnus of Arnprior, we began to take them outside tethered on stretchy leashes secured onto body harnesses.

My wife and I would each take one of the newly adopted cats, and ensure that they got a chance to see what the outside of the house looked like from all around.

We also wanted to make sure that they wouldn’t bolt at any of the outside sounds, and that they knew where the doors were.

These cats had very little experience with any house let alone our house, and being outdoors was a totally foreign and frightening experience for them at first.

They could hardly move during their first few times out. Boo’s legs wouldn’t work right for him, and he slithered on his belly like a lizard as he explored the lawn and tree wells around the house.

Each nice day they got another

The accidental sales rep’s wife…? n e w owner v e r y happy.

With the acAccidental quisition Farmwife of this new title of Real Estate Agent, The Farmer has reclaimed one of the girls’ bedrooms. He painted over the pink walls with a colour like sun-kissed sand, hung a few pictures and a map of property zones. He’s a large man so it took him a while to find the right desk but now it looks like it was made for that room. The window blind is always up and he has a view of the pasture. I must admit there is pretty good feng shuei going on in there.

It took us a few days to get the kinks out of the Internet at home, because The Farmer has considerably less patience than I do for slow, stalling and freezing wireless services. He seems to have mastered his very first smart phone in record time, and we tease him because now he is the one who keeps picking up his phone and looking at it when he’s supposed to be paying attention to something

else. Like our youngest daughter’s graduation services. Or the Canada Day fireworks.

Facebook is a whole new world for him too. He had a personal profile on there before but rarely used it. Now he needs it for business purposes, so I will be introducing him to some of my 1000+ friends to get him started.

With his college retirement just a few years away, now is the time for him to slowly transition into real estate. He has taught business for over twenty years, and built four houses himself. When I was taking my real estate courses (I made it to part three and then gave up!) he was very interested. With a mind for math and marketing, the lessons were right up his alley.

Not much will change for us on the home front, except the occasional dinner time might be interrupted by a sales call or appointment. I might have to pitch in to cook Sunday dinner sometime too. He will have to let me into his kitchen if he has to go and host an open house somewhere.

At the end of the day, the farm is always there. Season after season it brings new challenges and routines that mark the passage of time. It’s a relief to come home from a stressful day at work to walk among the animals and do something simple like pitching hay.

And I am still The Accidental Farmwife, because The Accidental Real Estate Agent’s Wife just doesn’t have the same ring to it.

able to build up outdoors, and they skittered all over the lane-way in their mad dash before finally stopping and looking around as if wondering what just happened.

So far they’ve not strayed far from the house, although just today Boo got to within a meter of a doe who wandered through the yard, and after very nearly sniffing noses, showed signs of wanting to follow her.

When I stepped outside and called to him, he obediently came right back to me and allowed himself to be picked up, while the doe watched the whole thing from a few yards away.

My wife and I just wanted to let the Baillons know that a cat named Daniel from the Arnprior Shelter landed on his feet, and is getting the opportunity to be a real cat.

He’s not confined to some stuffy apartment and left to spend his days looking out windows and wondering what it would be like to have a life.

He’s got a buddy his own age from the same room he grew up in, a skilled and experienced hunter as a mentor, and by all appearances seems to be having the time of his young life.

We hope your new cat is enjoying a similar experience.

Lifestyle - The Farmer has obtained his real estate license. This is a great achievement, after months of study, but it is more than that. It’s a new phase of life.

In the past seven years since I have been partnered with The Farmer, we have already experienced many phases of life. Most of the job-related ones have been mine, because as a writer, I have been rather transient. I came home from 3 years in Asia, lived at my parents’ house for a few months until my father started dropping hints that it was time for me and my brood to find a nest of our own. So we moved into a townhouse. Then it was one job after another until I finally found my niche at the radio station.

The Farmer and I didn’t live together until we were married, about fifteen months after our first date. That day, life changed forever, for the better of course. It was a bit of a shock, though, waking up in the farmhouse and realizing I was married not only to a college professor but a sheep farmer.

I was a Farmwife. Manure would be involved in my regular routine.

Then the kids had to ‘find their corners’. A couple moved out, a couple moved in, and one visited often. The Farmer and I learned not to get too attached to the elusive creatures known as our daughters. Even those living with us were rarely home and when they were, they were happily ensconced in their rooms, listening to strange music. Just this past weekend the last of the five moved out. This time she took furniture so it’s probably going to last.

All that is left is a crumpled collage of rockstar and superhero posters on the wall, and a closet full of discarded clothing that is going to make some

brief exposure until they were comfortable and familiar with the house from the outside, and comfortable going in and out of the doors with us.

It’s only been the last few days that we’ve let them out with our older cat untethered for brief periods.

They stuck to Sly like little black shadows at first. Now they come with us on our daily walks with Sly to the end of the driveway to get the newspaper, and dutifully follow us back to the house for their breakfasts.

The people who tried to adopt Daniel were spot on when they sensed that he had dreams of running around in his head.

For whatever reason cats do these things, Daniel/Blaze has these “mad minutes” when he just thunders all over the house chasing the other cats, and then expects to be chased in turn.

The other cats, including the aging Sly, are usually happy to oblige.

The first time they came with us down the driveway untethered, both new cats decided to make a mad dash back up the driveway toward the house.

They were simply unaccustomed to controlling the speed they were

Carp Fair $39,200 in federal funding

INSCRIPTION Ă&#x20AC; Lâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;Ă&#x2030;COLE

News â&#x20AC;&#x201C; The federal government has given $39,200 to the Carp Fairâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s 150th anniversary celebrations.

Carleton-Mississippi Mills MP Gordon Oâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;Connor, on behalf of Minister of Canadian Heritage and Official Languages James Moore, announced support to the Carp Agricultural Society for the 150th anniversary of the Carp Fair. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Our Government is proud to invest in community events that bring people together to enjoy meaningful cultural activities steeped in local history and heritage,â&#x20AC;? said Minister of State and Chief Government Whip Oâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;Connor. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I would like to congratulate the Carp Agricultural Society on this milestone edition of an outstanding fair that is sure to be around for another 150 years.â&#x20AC;?

The 150th edition of the annual agricultural fair will take place from September 26 to 29, 2013. In addition to music performances and traditional dance and artisan demonstrations, the anniversary edition of the fair will include commemorative activities, such as the creation of a giant mural by a local artist to depict the fairâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s long history. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Long-standing community festivals become

a living part of our countryâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s history by bringing together all generations to celebrate past and present traditions,â&#x20AC;? said Minister Moore. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Local commemorations such as this one bring great benefits to the regional economy and also enrich the cultural life of the community.â&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x153;This will be the 150th anniversary of the Carp Fair, a significant event demonstrating the continuing health and vitality of the agricultural community,â&#x20AC;? said Joyce Trafford, General Manager, Carp Agricultural Society. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Grounds and buildings have been carefully maintained at the heart of the village and remain a wellused vibrant part of the community throughout the year and at fair time, which attracts up to 50,000 visitors annually. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We are grateful for the Government of Canada support, which will be well used.â&#x20AC;?

The tax dollars are provided through the Building Communities Through Arts and Heritage program of the Department of Canadian Heritage.

The program provides Canadians with more opportunities to take part in activities that present local arts and culture and celebrate local history and heritage.

Shooting beavers with a camera in Norway Lifestyle - For those who missed last week’s column, I am currently in Norway photographing Eurasian Beavers for an upcoming book. I soon learned that here most beavers live in rivers and don’t build dams. This makes finding them difficult and taking their portraits more than challenging.

After several frustrating, rain-filled days my luck changed. One evening I found beavers in a meandering creek near an old bridge. Crouching behind the stony structure I acquired good photos. I returned at 4 a.m. the next morning and was delighted to find two beavers active there.

After a few more successful days I explored upstream and found two places on the shore with fresh beaver sign.

One was ideal for early morning viewing so I returned the next day at four a.m., quietly sneaking through Gray Alders to a good vantage point where I began “the Wait.” An hour passed without beavers. As I stood silently, chickadee-like birds called tits flitted through the alders, and Fieldfares - the Norwegian equivalent of our robin - scolded me. Another

MICHAEL RUNTZ Nature’s Way hour passed and still no beavers. Finally, around a quarter past six, I spotted ripples upstream from me. Leading the wake was the blunt head of a beaver. To my delight the animal veered toward the opposite shore and climbed out of the water. Using its front feet it pulled earth under its body before hunching over and depositing castoreum – beaver scent - on the material. Its chemical “no trespassing sign” posted, the beaver returned to the water. t swam across the creek and approached within two metres.

I didn’t move, and for several long minutes the beaver floated beside me, constantly sniffing the air, obviously detecting my scent. Eventually it swam out of sight. A few minutes passed and then I heard something behind me. I slowly turned and was astounded to see a beaver sitting a mere metre from me It waddled out of sight and then I heard it noisily chewing

wood. I dared not move for fear of scaring it. After several excruciatingly long minutes the sounds stopped. Then I heard a splash and through the corner of my eye caught motion. The beaver was swimming underwater, its flat tail slowing swinging from side to side as huge webbed hind feet propelled it to the far shore.

Once there it climbed out of the water and again deposited its scent.

My final morning in Norway I returned to the creek one last time. This time three-anda-half hours passed before the beaver made an appearance.

The wait was well worth it, however. After scent marking, it cut down a small shrub and devoured its leaves next to the shore. And for a brief period it groomed its fur, behaviour I had been hoping to observe during my visit.

The challenges were great but in only two weeks I managed to attain my desired

Occasionally Eurasian Beavers build dams. This one broke due the absence of beavers and torren al rains that fell prior to and during my visit to Norway. photos of Eurasian Beavers. However, for my success I must thank another party: our local beavers. After all, they trained me well in the

St. John’s strawberry social St. John’s Anglican Church Parish of Huntley held a special event following its service Sunday morning. Members of the congregation gathered outside and in the century-plus-old livery stable for a strawberry social.

Among those attending were Coral and Ab Neumann of Arnprior, who were celebrating 62 years married.

Their wedding took place July 7, 1951. After joking about not wanting her photo taken, Coral said, “We’re lucky to have our photo taken after 62 years.” The Neumanns have five children – Tom, Paul, Brent, Nancy and Andrew – and 12 grandchildren.

Strawberries and whip cream can carry kids a long way, but when that wore off Charlene Johnston came to the rescue, creating balloon animals at St. John’s Anglican Church Sunday morning. Johnston gives Paisley Reid a new hat while Paisley’s brother isn’t sure what to think. It was a day for people of all ages. The congregation sang Happy Birthday to Weldie Johnston, Charlene’s father, who turned 92 on June 30. Youngster Harrison Nixon was celebrating his first birthday. Harrison is the grandson of Dwayne and Norma Baird.

Volunteers donate more than 20,000 hours Jessica Cunha jessica.cunha@metroland.com

News - The Western Ottawa Community Resource Centre celebrated its past year with an open house and scavenger hunt on June 24.

Cathy Jordan, executive director of the centre, said four words really encompass the work completed over the 2012-13 year: partnership, community, commitment and passion. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We do it because we want to make a difference in peopleâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s lives,â&#x20AC;? said Jordan. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Here at the Western Ottawa Community Resource Centre, they are truly more than just words.â&#x20AC;?

Volunteers donated more than 20,000 hours in the past year to programs in the communities of Kanata, Goulbourn and West Carleton said Jordan. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It really is a volunteer-positive environment,â&#x20AC;? said Laine Johnson, volunteer co-ordinator. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We really empower our volunteers to work directly with clients.â&#x20AC;?

Johnson added volunteers can work in a variety of different capacities and arenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t relegated to â&#x20AC;&#x153;paper pushers.â&#x20AC;? The resource centreâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Bullying Prevention Program reached more than 5,500 students this past year. The anti-bullying initiative was established 13 years ago to positively impact children and youth through a school-based program. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Whatever the need is, youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re there to help,â&#x20AC;? said Kanata South Coun. Allan Hubley, who has participated in some of the anti-bullying programâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s past events. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I appreciate what you do.â&#x20AC;?

The Rural Community Development program, which partners with groups in Richmond and Constance Bay, is in its second year of its

three-year total of funding and helps connect people living outside the city-centre with the resources they need. â&#x20AC;&#x153;By having a focus on our rural communities weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re able to support the great work that communities are already doing and support them in making them more sustainable,â&#x20AC;? said Larissa Silver, director of programs and services.

REPORT

More than 100 people visited the centre to learn more about its programs and services, which are offered at low- or no-cost for children, youth, adults, parents and seniors.

Some of the organizationâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s programs include community support and counselling services; a Violence Against Women program; a shelter for women and children; services for children, youth and families; and an Early Years Centre, which celebrated its 10th anniversary. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The annual review provides a bit of a glimpse,â&#x20AC;? said Jordan of the work accomplished over the past year. Going forward, the goal is to create a â&#x20AC;&#x153;vibrant, safe and healthyâ&#x20AC;? community.

Last year, the resource centre received $6,811,400 in funding from federal, provincial and municipal governments, donations, programming fees and other sources for its services. The centreâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Meals-on-Wheels program delivered more than 24,000 meals. Volunteers provided more than 5,300 drives for seniors and adults with disabilities.

The Early Years Centre had more than 25,400 visits by parents and children; 861 counselling sessions were provided through the Violence Against Women program, and 4,418 clients

O’Connor lost backbench support while government whip “He’s probably in better shape than most 50 year olds,” Hubley said. “Ever since he’s been elected there’s been talk of him resigning. As far as I know, Gordon has every intention of running again in 2015.”

Hubley is well-connected in Conservative party circles. As a long-time, high-profile resident of the riding, he would be the logical successor as party candidate in the next election. While Hubley wouldn’t outright deny the possibility of running federally, he said the timing isn’t great and he intends to run again municipally.

The municipal election is in 2014; the federal in 2015.

“I’m not sure that day is close,” Hubley said, adding. “I’ll listen to what the residents tell me. I’m there to serve them.”

A second reason O’Connor may find himself out cabinet has to do with party control.

Known as the most secretive and rigorously-controlled government in recent history, backbencher discipline is doled out by the party whip. O’Connor is believed to have overstepped his bounds on more than one occasion.

For Harper to quell a party revolt, he may have to cut O’Connor loose.

Karen McCrimmon is the Liberal candidate in the next local election. The recent Liberal

leadership candidate has heard nothing of O’Connor’s situation and was surprised to hear Hubley’s name associated with the party. She often says she won’t speak negatively about opponents, but doesn’t profess to be the sitting MP’s fan.

“He’s done the job to the best of his abilities, and done what he’s thought is right,” she said.

“I don’t agree with him. But he has always worked hard. It’s a tough job being the whip.”

She wouldn’t say the Conservative party has curtailed free speech among members.

But as for openness and transparency when it comes to spending, she said the party could come much closer to the

promise it made while in opposition.

As far as meeting Hubley in an election, McCrimmon indicated that her skills at the national and international level would make up for his advantages at the constituency. And that her party’s consensus-building approach is better than the Conservatives’ divide and conquer.

O’Connor is on record defending Harper’s position on the Wright-Duffy scandal. He believed a few weeks ago that the prime minister didn’t know anything about the $90,000 cheque to Senator Mike Duffy.

Many observers say when chief of staff Nigel Wright and a few others in the prime minister’s

Inaugural expo raises $160K for Food Aid News - The Mayor’s Rural Expo and Food Aid Day event at City Hall was a big success.

From the heated competition of the cow milking contest that matched local celebrities against city councillors and staff, to the sheep shearing, lively step dancers and rural displays, it was an outstanding event.

When the day was done, over $160,000

was raised.

The city thanks everyone who supported Food Aid by buying breakfast or lunch, donating money or supplies, setting up a display and volunteering their time to a great cause.

Food Aid serves as a major fundraiser for the Ottawa Food Bank who uses the funds to purchase cattle and processes the meat to

provide nutritious ground beef to Ottawa’s less fortunate while supporting our local farmers.

office discussed handing the money over - as was revealed days ago by RCMP - it is unlikely Harper wouldn’t have known.

If O’Connor does resign, a third reason may have to

do with avoiding the mounting scandals the party finds itself embroiled in.

O’Connor was given an opportunity to respond without a deadline, but declined.

Longfields Station in Barrhaven Water rescue The Ottawa Fire Services responded to the Ottawa River near Victoria Island at about 4 p.m. on July 4 for a man who was injured when he fell on rock on the Quebec side. On arrival crews witnessed two men who were stabilizing the injured male and immediately launched the Water Rescue Unit while other fire crews made their way to the incident by foot. Ground crews reached the injured male and began immobilizing him until the water rescue unit reached them. An Ottawa Paramedic accompanied fire crews by boat to the incident location and assisted crews in treating and packaging the injured male on a backboard. The male was conscious and had suffered serious injuries from the fall.

Water Rescue crews used the boat to return him to shore where he was place in care of paramedics.

News - A new residential community planned along March Road as part of the urban boundary expansion is anticipating about 3,000 residential units and 8,000 people, according to the project manager.

Murray Chown, project manager with Novatech Engineering working on the housing project, said the minimum density for the area is 34 units per net residential hectare. This does not include space set aside for infrastructure, parks, schools or commercial structures.

“It’ll be a community unto itself,” he said.

The Fairwinds project in west Kanata is similar in density to the planned community, he said.

It was standing room only as more than 150 residents packed into the hall at St. John’s Anglican Church on June 26 to hear about plans for expanding the urban boundary up March Road. Currently, the area is part of the West Carleton-March ward, but will be added to Kanata North once it’s complete.

The earliest construction could start is sometime in 2016, said Chown.

Many rural residents who will border the new urban development wanted assurances they wouldn’t be staring at the sides of other houses, while those living in residential communities, such as Brookside, want to ensure they keep a natural buffer between their communities.

“I don’t want to look out of the back of my house and see a wall of vinyl siding,” said Ryan Ross, who lives in Marchbrook Circle, which will border the new development. “I don’t want light pollution and I don’t want sound pollution.”

Julia Hunt, who lives in Brookside, wants to see the row of trees behind her house protected with a buffer.

Chown said steps will be taken to protect the estate lots that border the new development, and all comments submitted will be considered during the planning phases.

“You have opportunities to participate,” he said. “This is the first of many steps … your

Kanata North Coun. Marianne Wilkinson said nothing can be done about the density, but the public will have the opportunity to discuss plans about how that density could be spread out.

“Try to think about how to make a nice community,” she said. “Come up with such a great plan that you want to live there.”

Judy Makin, president of the March Rural Community Association, who sits on a community advisory board for the urban expansion, said the groups will represent the views of area residents over the course of the planning process.

“Where we’re at right now is to make the best community we can,” she said. “We will represent your views.”

wondered why it was necessary to pay to move both houses back into the lot. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The houses themselves donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t have any special status,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;So do we really need to move and pay for them?â&#x20AC;?

The cityâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s heritage planner Sally Coutts said while the homes are not individually designated as having heritage value, they are part of Lowertownâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s heritage conservation district.

The two buildings have been deemed to have equal value and must be moved in tandem if they are to retain the â&#x20AC;&#x153;street fabric,â&#x20AC;? she said.

Nancy Miller-Chenier, head of the Lowertown Community Associationâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s heritage committee, said moving the homes diminishes their heritage value. Although the group fought to save the homes, it is hoping the city will change the road project so the homes donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t have to be touched. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The curve has been there since Colonel By laid out the road â&#x20AC;Ś (it is) part of the fabric, social history of the area,â&#x20AC;? Miller-Chenier said, â&#x20AC;&#x153;The only way to do that is to move them.

There is no other option. I want you to understand that,â&#x20AC;? built heritage subcommittee chairwoman Coun. Jan Harder told Chenier. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The battle is won. â&#x20AC;&#x153;If it goes back to anything, it would be to demolishing them. I donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t want to see that happen,â&#x20AC;? Harder added.

Miller-Chenier said she worries about possible damage or a partial collapse of the buildings during the move.

Cumberland Coun. Stephen Blais said the NCC should pay if it wants to re-do the road in a way that widens the boulevard. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s funny that weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re picking up the tab for them to do something they want to do,â&#x20AC;? Blais said, noting the NCC isnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t willing to pitch in for projects the city undertakes that involve the

federal agency. Rideau-Vanier Coun. Mathieu Fleury said itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s â&#x20AC;&#x153;reasonableâ&#x20AC;? to conclude that the city will pay to move the homes because it made the decision to save them. But he added that the city and NCC share many of the costs for the $31-million project and it was Ottawaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s turn to pick up the tab.

Blais, Hubley and Somerset Coun. Diane Holmes dissented on the city council vote to approve the house-moving funds.

Heritage consultant (and vice chairman of the cityâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s built-heritage subcommittee) Barry Padolskyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s company is preparing a study on how to move the homes, which will also determine how far back to move them. City officials have said the homes will retain their existing relationship to the streetâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s edge.

The width of the road will widen by approximately two metres around the curve where the homes at 275-279 Sussex Dr. are located.

Last year the National Capital Commission and the city had recommended the homes, one of which was home to former governor general Adrianne Clarkson during her childhood, be demolished as part of a plan to complete the NCCâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s ceremonial route, Confederation Boulevard. The road project will involve widening the road in certain sections to accommodate cycling lanes in addition to the current four vehicle lanes.

The cityâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s planning committee shocked even heritage advocates last October by unanimously rejecting the homesâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; demolition. At the time, the NCCâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s project manager, Richard Daigneault, said that option was considered, but removing the buildings wouldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t have a significant enough impact to warrant the cost. The NCC argued that the rents charged to tenants in the buildings were not high enough to recoup that cost within a reasonable timeframe.

Cleanliness meets dogliness Doggy grooming and wash fundraiser for Arnprior and District Humane society will be held July 14 Patricia Leboeuf pleboeuf@metroland.com

Community - If your dog needs a good scrub, some pampering or extra polishing, look no further than the upcoming Wiggle Wiggle Wash and Spa. The fundraiser will allow dog owners to treat their pooches to a basic dog wash, a ďŹ&#x201A;ea bath, a basic groom or something a bit more glamorous.

Nail painting, fur feather and body paint is a unique option that will allow dogs to let out their colourful diva. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Everything is completely animal friendly,â&#x20AC;? assured event coordinator Valerie Hemphill.

The event is held on July 14, between 11 a.m. and 3 p.m.

All the money collected during the event goes directly to help the Arnprior and District Humane Society and is held on its grounds.

The event is new to the societyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s roster of fundraisers â&#x20AC;&#x153;because we had a tough year last.â&#x20AC;?

It has seen a surge of new animals as well as health issues. It is a no-kill shelter and these animals must be fed, sheltered and healed. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s so important that we have these animals until we have a great home for them,â&#x20AC;? said Hemphill. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It cost a lot of money and there was nothing in the summer. So I thought I would create something that would get the families out

there.â&#x20AC;?

Humans will also enjoy the dayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s activity.

There is a barbecue, music and several vendors and exhibitors on site selling things like collars, beds, clothing, Pupcakes and more. A pet photographer, dog trainer, Royal Canin representatives and the Ottawa Valley Dog Whisper are just a few of experts coming to share tricks to dealing with ďŹ&#x201A;uffy. â&#x20AC;&#x153;These are people that are really into animals,â&#x20AC;? said Hemphill. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The people are so excited,â&#x20AC;? she added. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Because it is so new, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s really exciting.â&#x20AC;?

There will be several hundred dollars in prizes to be won.

While planning the event, she was worried that she would run into several roadblocks. Instead the support from local businesses as well as area dog lovers has been overwhelming. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I chose downtown Arnprior to do my shopping for my gifts and gift certiďŹ cates because I wanted to promote shopping in our downtown area because they have supported us so well,â&#x20AC;? said Hemphill.

The fundraiser allows people to look into the shelterâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s inner workings. â&#x20AC;&#x153;There is an amazing amount of people who have no idea we have a human society in town,â&#x20AC;? she said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Let alone that it is a no-kill shelter.â&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x153;Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve had a little bit of bad press about cats and why we wonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t adopt them out like that,â&#x20AC;? she added. â&#x20AC;&#x153;And I want people to understand that even though it looks crowded these animals have amazing home with the most loving and

The fundraiserâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s location was chosen for speciďŹ c reasons. Hemphill was the Arnprior-based OSPCA Agent for six years and has seen exactly what these homeless animals go through.

caring women I have ever met. Their needs are met to 150 per cent.â&#x20AC;?

She hopes that it will become an annual event and create growth within the organization.

The basic dog wash cost $10, the ďŹ&#x201A;ea bath is $15, the basic grooming is $30 and the toe nail painting, body stenciling and fur feathers costs $12. All of which goes to help the organization. Many vendors have also offered part of the proďŹ ts to the shelter.

HAY FEVER...

You may have heard the term â&#x20AC;&#x153;hay fever,â&#x20AC;? but seasonal allergies, also known as seasonal allergic rhinitis, are triggered by several different types of pollen, but not by hay. When trees and grasses begin growing in the spring and early summer, they release light, powdery pollen that floats in the wind. If youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re allergic to this pollen, it can result in sniffling, sneezing, wheezing, a runny nose, and itchy and watery eyes.

Allergy triggers, or allergens, vary depending on the time of year. In late summer and early fall, weed pollen (especially from ragweed) and fungal spores are the main culprits. As well, the specific allergens in the environment will vary with the geographical area.

So if youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re an allergy sufferer, how can you enjoy the outdoors without experiencing unpleasant symptoms? Here are a few tips: r ,FFQ XJOEPXT DMPTFE TP QPMMFOT DBO U ESJGU JO "JS DPOEJtioning will keep you more comfortable in hot, humid weather. But donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t forget that air conditioners also create the best conditions (damp and dark) for moulds to grow in your home.

If these measures donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t work, talk to your health care provider or your Live Well Pharmacist at West Carleton Drug Mart about what you can do if youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re suffering from allergies. There are eye drops, nasal sprays, and oral antihistamines that can be helpful in treating your specific allergy.

Thursday evenings in rural Ottawa are no longer the same now with a series of summer concerts. The concerts are spread out in Fitzroy Provincial Park, the Stittsville Village Square Park and the Richmond Fair Board Grounds. In July, the music played close to home with the Fabulous Flashbax on July 4. Local Traffic is set for July 11, the Stephen Thomas Band is on July 18 and Ambush and Jordan McIntosh play July 25. The Fabulous Flashbax, photo at right, took the stage on July 4 to sing a medley of favourite oldies in Fitzroy. Grace Wilson, 5, and her new found friend Gwen Smith, 7, are entranced.

HOPE to serve up annual summer festival HOPE Volleyball SummerFest will see at least 1,032 teams Sabine Gibbins sabine.gibbins@metroland.com

NEVIL HUNT/METROLAND

Sens replacement underway Hockey season started early for NHL hopefuls as the Ottawa Senators prospects development seven-day camp opened on July 3 in Kanata. The camp included off-ice and on-ice training, nutrition seminars and a 3-on-3 tournament. Sens 2013 firstround draft pick Curtis Lazar turns sharply during a practice drill on July 3, the first day of a development camp for the team’s young players.

Left: Orléans native Cody Ceci, centre, challenges the puck-carrier during a drill. Ceci was a firstround pick of the Sens in 2012 and seems a step closer to making the NHL team’s roster this year.

Being assigned jersey no. 5 instead of no. 38 has to be considered a good sign for the future.

News – They’ll serve, volley and stick their feet in the sand for a good cause.

The 31st edition of HOPE (Helping Other People Everywhere) Volleyball SummerFest is set to take place July 13 at Mooney’s Bay Beach.

Originally inspired by Terry Fox’s Marathon of Hope run in 1981, this year will see 1,032 teams engage in a little friendly competition on 86 courts while raising funds for six deserving charities.

HOPE’s executive director Holly Tarrison said there is always a high anticipation leading up to the event, and thousands of dollars have been raised for local non-profit organizations.

“It’s all for a really great cause,” she said.

This year’s recipients include the Ottawa Children’s Treatment Centre, the Boys and Girls Club of Ottawa, the Lung Association, Make-a-Wish Eastern Ontario, the Distress Centre of Ottawa and Region, and the University of Ottawa Heart Institute Foundation.

Since its inception, the event has seen more than $3.5 million in support of more than 110 organizations, said Tarrison.

Each year, the event itself combines a recreational sport with live concert entertainment from notable Canadian bands and artists held

in the evening.

The tournament is expecting at least 25,000 volleyball players to crowd the beach and grassy area.

Although charities can reapply to be recipients, HOPE organizers have always kept the charities different each year.

“We try and keep it so that there is three years between the time they can reapply to be recipients if they were recipients already before,” she said.

“We like to test the waters a bit to see what else is out there.”

Representatives from the charities always come out each year to see the games in action, she said, and to even volunteer.

“It gives them an idea of how we are helping them,” Tarrison said. “It helps us help them.”

While volleyball action will be a huge part of the event, it’s also mainly about having fun, said Tarrison.

“The main goal is to give back but have fun while doing so,” she said.

Approximately $150,000 will be divided amongst the six different charities, which provided a budget for each of their projects.

Tarrison said volunteers are still needed to help run the event, and spectators are most welcome to attend.

Myer’s Volkswagen Shows West is Best

501-2500 Palladium Dr. Kanata As Volkswagen’s global popularity continues to grow, it’s causing increased traffic and sales at all Canadian dealerships.

Myer’s Volkswagen in Ottawa’s West has chosen to take a decidedly customer-centered approach in resolving the growth issues caused by this increased attention when they open their doors to a new expanded facility at 501-2500 Palladium Drive in the Palladium Auto Park this Saturday, June 22nd. Since taking over the busy Bells Corners retail outlet (formerly known as Citiwest VW) in 2010, the Myers Automotive Group has applied their unique philosophy of ‘customer-first’ thinking in every aspect of the VW store.

The results are amazing. Sales volumes rose by 70% and the customer satisfaction rates experienced similar dramatic increases.

VW owners have always been a loyal group, sticking with their brand when others around them may have thought their choices were quirky and eccentric. But now it seems the whole automotive consumer world is in love with VW’s brand of quirkiness. Car buyers have found that underneath the skin, VW is all about bringing the latest available technology to serve in terms of performance, efficiency, safety, and comfort.

And while auto critics may have, in the past, been excused for their humorous views on VW’s styling (think Beetle and Microbus), not even the harshest critic has an unkind word on the styling of today’s Volkswagens. Ottawa’s Myers Group of retail facilities believes that loyal customers deserve top treatment and that’s what’s in store for them at the new Myers Volkswagen.

Located in the heart of Ottawa’s auto retail sector; the Palladium Autopark with its own 417 interchange, Myers VW will welcome shoppers into a bright ten-car showroom allowing them to learn all about Volkswagen’s advantages in a hands-on manner surrounded by the vehicles they’re interested in. Service customers will be treated to a climate

controlled drive-in reception centre leading to a 16 bay technology department designed to take care of every maintenance and repair need. While parking on the old location was definitely a challenge, the new facility will have plenty of accessible spaces making a quick stop or an extended visit a breeze. Being located right off Highway 417, means easy connections to any area in the Ottawa/Gatineau region, perfect for service and sales customers alike.

What won’t change at Myers Volkswagen is the friendly open style of service that their customers have come to enjoy and benefit from. The entire staff is making the move west along with vehicles, parts, equipment and furniture. General Manager Trevor King credits a very dedicated team with keeping customers satisfied and everything running smoothly even in the midst of this major move. He witnesses on a daily basis their efforts in making sure every client gets the most out of their experience, whether it’s a new or pre-owned vehicle purchase, or a quick oil change, or a major repair.

And of course Myers VW customers love having access to the longest service hours in the city, and that definitely won’t change. The service and parts departments are open from 6 am to 8 pm Monday through Thursday, 6 am to 6 pm on Fridays and 6 am to 5 pm on Saturdays. The sales showroom is open from9 am to 9 pm Monday through Thursday, 9 am to 6 pm on Fridays and 9 am to 5 pm on Saturdays.

Volkswagen’s grand vision is to become the world’s largest automaker by 2018 and they are well on their way. They just have to look at their successful retailers for inspiration and experience. Myers Volkswagen has been number one in the greater Ottawa region since they opened in 2010. Call them at 613 592 8484 for sales or 613 596 8689 for service or log onto www.myersvw.com to find out how you can be number one on your roads in a Myers Volkswagen.

Demystifying the freemasons

PATRICIA LEBOEUF/METROLAND

The Freemasons have the Carleton Lodge on Carp Road. It is filled to the brim with various symbols that remain members-only knowledge. Many symbols relate to Middle Age stone masons or to Christianity, including the historic Bible they swear on. The large charge is where the Worshipful Master Ken Fields sits during meetings. He and past master Peter Pate stand in the center of the room, surrounded by the candle sticks. pleboeuf@metroland.com

Lifestyle – The freemasons in Carp do have a secret handshake, but not much else is hidden.

“There is a misconception in the world that we are a secret society. But we are not,” said Carleton Lodge past master Peter Pate. “We have secrets, but we are not secret.”

They raise money for charity, participate in parades, openly wear regalia and sometimes open their doors to curious people. Recently the society held an open house, allowing about 46 people to come in, take pictures and learn more about the organization.

Often accused of secrecy, few subjects are actually off limit to outsiders.

“It’s more or less the rituals that are the secret, when you go through the ceremony of initiating,” added Worshipful Master Ken Fields.

“It’s about the same as the Knights of Columbus. I’m sure they have different rituals when they do their stuff.”

They are greatly involved in their community, trying to help out where they can. They recently donated $1,100 to the West Carleton Emergency Food Aid and the Carp Cenotaph.

The reason for their charity is simple. It is “to help people out,” said Pate.

With the help of a Christian church, they look into the community and evaluate who needs them the most.

WHO THEY ARE

The masons are a group of men who believe in God and who try to make good men better.

“It’s a learning curve,” said Pate. “Trying to make a man better to himself, better to his family, better to his community, better to his country and to the whole in general, basically.”

Masons try to live by certain tenets such as honesty, integrity, fraternity, helping one’s fellow man and being a pillar in the community.

It has existed “since time immemorial”, growing from a small group of stone masons in the Middle Ages into the world’s largest frater-

nity with lodges in nearly every country. There was even a small temporary lodge for soldiers in Kandahar, Afghanistan during the bulk of the conflict.

It is hard to count the members. There are about 15 lodges just in their own district, which cover Russell, Ottawa, Richmond, Kanata, Carp, Almonte, Arnprior and Carleton Place and there is about 65 districts in Ontario.

It’s estimated that there are about 3.2 million across the world. Meetings in Carp are held once a month except during the summer.

New members are initiated, lodge business is looked after and quality time is spent amongst close friends. However, the exact details on the proceedings and rituals are kept secret.

HOW TO JOIN

“We don’t recruit,” said Pate. “The slogan is to be one, ask one. We won’t go ask you if you want to join our fraternity. You ask us if you want to join.”

Candidates must have two sponsors backing

their claim. There is a background check and in-home visit by members. This allows for the vetting members to get a feel for them.

To qualify the applicant must simply be “an upright man.”

Once a member, they are accepted in all lodges across the world and many do stop by for visits.Members are for life with few exceptions. Skipping meetings wouldn’t earn a boot, but “if you don’t live the life you should be living” the membership will be revoked, confirmed Pate.

Masons come from all walks of life. Several kings, prime ministers, president and politicians as well as garbage collectors, librarian, plumbers and the unemployed have all been part of the fraternity.

The lodge’s first master was an MP, said Fields. But once inside the building, their social status is stripped and everyone is on the same level. They do have a strict hierarchy and it takes about eight years for a mason to become a master. That role is served for about a year.

West Carleton firefighters Charity part of organization 40th anniversary reunion Continued from Page 33

Patricia Leboeuf pleboeuf@metroland.com

News - The bond that is created between those in the fire service lasts for years, even decades which is why a 40th anniversary reunion of the former West Carleton township volunteer firefighters is being planned.

If West Carleton, which was formed when the townships of Fitzroy, Torbolton and Huntley amalgamated in 1974, hadn’t been absorbed into the new city of Ottawa, West Carleton, and its fire department, would have turned 40 in 2014.

“It’s a chance to get together, see old friends, tell some stories,” said co-organizer and former volunteer firefighter David Burke.

Working with the current administration of the Ottawa Fire Services (OFS), who now provides fire protection to the former township, organizers still need to gauge interest among former West Carleton members and current Ottawa firefighters, stationed in the West Carleton area.

The event will be open to all who have worn the West Carleton Fire Department (WCFD) crest, or worked in the area as in the case of the current OFS members.

Attendance and interest could fluctuate.

The old West Carleton Department had 120 members working from the Kinburn, Fitzroy Harbour, Constance Bay, Carp, Corkery and

Dunrobin stations, at the time of amalgamation.

Turn over in any volunteer fire service always occurs.

Burke feels potentially there could be several hundred in attendance, if the idea for this event is well received.

A lot of the new current guys and gals who work for Ottawa Fire, in the West Carleton area, might not know the history of the old department or area, said Burke.

Together they went thought many fire, prevented devastation and helped countless people.

“Whether it’s fighting a neighbour’s fire, assisting them in a medical emergency or running a fundraising or charity event, you have a vested interest in your own community,” said Burke.

“You never know if it’s going to be your neighbour who needs help.”

He hopes that this community spirit will translate in a pronounced interest in the reunion.

It is estimated that the reunion will occur May 2014.

Former West Carleton firefighters, as well as current OFS members working in the area, as well as former dispatchers, or anyone who was at all associated with the WCFD interested in such an affair should email him at wcfd40th@ ottawa.ca with contact information as well as former or current affiliation.

Members travel from role to role.

“You start at the very bottom,” said Fields.

“We call them the chairs. You go from chair to chair.”

There are four more chairs after the master and it takes about 12 years to reach the top.

There are many other positions in the fraternity, each with specific roles and responsibility. Some include the Junior Warden who is in

charge of refreshments and recreation; deacons show candidates around the lodge and speak for them; and the tyler guards the door from the outside to prevent people from entering.

The Carleton Lodge on Carp Road was built in 1904, but the original lodge burnt down in the ‘20s. An old Presbyterian Church became the current location and contains ceremonial furniture from France.

ADVERTORIAL

With, Ottawa Valley LeafGuard you get MORE than a great gutter system you get expert installation and personal service from a local established company, who is going to be there during and after your installation.

What’s Wrong with Clogged Cutters?

Ordinary gutters capture rainwater and also collect leaves, twigs and other organic debris that can become clogged and create dams that impede the flow of water.

These clogs cause water to spill over your gutter and pool on the ground below. This can result in damage to your shrubs; lead to surface erosion; and seep into your foundation causing cracks and basement flooding. Water can also spill behind the gutter causing damage to the wood of your fascia and soffit.

If you have add-on toppers, helmets and hoods, that are attached to your roof and hang over your gutters, they are usually held in place by screws and nails hammered into your roof. Putting holes in your roof can cause leaks and may void your roof warrantees.

Take the first step in making your home maintenance free

LeafGuard is a unique system; it is custom cut and fitted to your home. It is a permanent solution, not a hood, add-on or bulky cover. LeafGuard is the only seamless, one-piece leaf protection available that has earned the Good Housekeeping Seal and comes with a lifetime workmanship warranty.

How Leafguard Works The Englert LeafGuard gutter system works on the scientific principle of Liquid Adhesion. The gutter’s patented design allows rainwater to travel down and around its curved hood and into the gutter, while deflecting leaves and debris.

LeafGuard gutters are rollformed from one continuous piece of aluminum that is 14 inches wide and cut to custom lengths that fit your home. The metal itself is 20% thicker than the industry standard for gutters.

LeafGuard features a ScratchGuard® paint finish, with a limited life time warranty and is guaranteed not to chip, peel or crack.

ns, Londoners aren’t used to seeing soldiers in uniform on their streets and trails.

“The interaction with the community has been overwhelming,” Lasalle said. “It’s been very positive. People stop us and bring us water.”

FORMER MP

Former Nepean MP David Pratt, now a private consultant, was on hand to wish the marchers farewell at the war museum. Pratt wore his medal from the 2003 march, which he completed while an MP and chair of the defence committee.

Pratt said he fondly remembers the response of the Dutch public when the Canadian contingent passed.

He also remembers walking about 500 kilometres during training for the Netherlands march, and watching some Canadian soldiers cut the boots off their swollen feet when they finished the march.

“It’s one of the toughest things I’ve ever done,” Pratt said of the four-day march. “I salute everybody taking part. It’ll be a life-changing experience.”

Canadians can follow the Canadian soldiers on Facebook as they march in the Netherlands.

NEVIL HUNT/METROLAND

Soldiers stand in the Canadian War Museum during a parade to mark their upcoming trip to the Netherlands, where 178 troops will take part in a four-day march.

Canadian soldiers head to Netherlands for 160-km march Nevil Hunt nevil.hunt@metroland.com

News - Canadian soldiers will walk in the footsteps of their forefathers when they visit the Netherlands later this month.

Over four days, members of the Canadian Armed Forces will cover 160 kilometres on foot as they take part in the International Four Days Marches Nijmegen. All 178 members will wear their standard uniforms and carry a pack weighing at least 10 kilograms as they walk the same terrain where many Canadian soldiers died while liberating the Netherlands during the Second World War. The Nijmegen marches began in 1909 as part of the training for Dutch soldiers. The four-day event has since become an international phenomenon, drawing both civilian and military walkers.

This will be the 61st year that members of Canada’s military have been part of the fourday march. Many of the soldiers who will walk from July 16 to 19 met at the Canadian War Museum on July 3 for a departure parade attended by Rochus Pronk, the deputy head of mission at the Dutch embassy.

“This is the largest walking event in the world,” Pronk said to the soldiers gathered at the museum. “There will be about 45,000 people from all over the world.”

Pronk said that 7,600 Canadians died liberating his nation.

“The Netherlands remains forever thankful,”

he said, adding that the walk symbolizes “the rock-solid bonds of friendship” between Canada and the Netherlands.

RESERVIST MARCHES

Among those travelling to Europe for the 2013 march is Armed Forces reservist Steve Lasalle, who grew up in Barrhaven. Lasalle, 38, is a sub-lieutenant and a cadet instructor who works with the 96 Dundas Sea Cadet Corps, near Hamilton, Ont. He said he applied to be part of the Nijmegen march for three reasons – most importantly to “honour the sacrifice” of Canadians killed in action.

“I also want to demonstrate to the cadets the aims of the program,” Lasalle said, listing physical fitness as a key aspect of being a cadet. He said he also wants to meet the test of marching 160 kilometres over four days.

“It’s just psychological,” he said of the challenge. “The body is ready.”

To get in shape, Lasalle gets up early twice each week to cover 10 kilometres before work.

He also meets the 10 other members of his team one evening every week and every Saturday and Sunday for long-distance marches.

The team’s training started in January on an indoor track and moved outside as the weather improved. Since then the team has walked in all kinds of weather, including scorching heat.

The weekend team marches begin and end in London, Ont., and Lasalle said, unlike Ottawa-

Lifestyle - The sauerkraut barrel was just about empty in the summer kitchen. It has served us well since the early fall when the whole family spent many evenings shredding cabbage to ďŹ ll it to the brim.

The salt pork barrel was empty too, and had been thoroughly washed and set out on the back stoop to sun-dry.

The smallest of the three barrels had long since given up the last pickled herring. Even the vegetables in the root cellar were getting scarce.

Now, what were we to do, I wondered? Would we starve, just like the starving Armenians Mother talked about all the time?

It would be many weeks before we would have carrots and potatoes from the garden. Now I had something else to worry about.

Back then, it seemed, I could ďŹ nd many issues to send me into a state of anxiousness. Mother said I was born with furrows in my brow, whatever that meant.

And worrying if we had enough food to keep us alive was constantly on my mind this time of year.

I took my concerns to my sister Audrey. She always seemed to have an answer for everything. At ďŹ rst she laughed out loud when I asked her if we were about to starve since all the barrels that once held our daily sustenance were empty. Then she saw that I was sincerely worried and she took me to the old swing in the grape arbour to give me a long talk on how I was worried

for nothing.

At that very moment, she pointed out, wasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t our bake table full of freshly baked bread?

Werenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t there enough loaves there to last us most of the week when Mother would again bake up another batch? So there would always be sandwiches and always there would be bread pudding for dessert.

And in the smoke house, wasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t there slabs of back-bacon and roasts of pork, and sausage links, enough to feed half of Renfrew County? â&#x20AC;&#x153;Stop worrying, Mary,â&#x20AC;? she said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We wonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t starve.â&#x20AC;?

And of course, my wiser sister Audrey was quite right.

Soon there were sprigs of new lettuce showing in the garden.

Enough to take to the dinner table and for lettuce sandwiches which I loved with a passion.

Fresh lettuce, with a spattering of sugar and vinegar between two slices of buttered freshly baked bread. Now, that was a treat! One which I dearly loved.

And then Audrey took me down into the dugout under the house. I had told her the last time I had gone down with the dish pan to bring up vegetables for supper, I had to dig away in

All lessons are held at Augerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Beach, located at 530 Bayview Drive. These lessons are held in the Ottawa River, which allows children to learn valuable things that they wouldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t necessarily be aware of in a pool â&#x20AC;&#x201C; awareness of currents, river safety, swimming when there are no lifeguards, etc.

There are many swim levels and session dates to choose from and all INFORMATION CAN BE REVIEWED ON &ACEBOOK AT HTTPS WWW FACEBOOK com/groups/cbswimminglessons/. You can also contact Janet Lavern directly at 613-832-9047.

the sand before I found a carrot.

Audrey pointed to the shelves down there that for generations held preserves and pickles. And there on those shelves were enough glass jars, still full of beans in brine, onions hanging in mesh bags, and sealer after sealer of preserved raspberries, crab apples and wild blueberries. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Now do you think we are starving?â&#x20AC;? Audrey asked.

And or course, my much older, and much wiser sister was right. Just because the barrels in the kitchen were empty, there was still food aplenty to last us until the garden was ready. I could put my worries aside. And I recalled what my father always said when he was discussing the issues of the day: â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a poor farmer indeed, who canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t keep food on the table to feed his family.â&#x20AC;?

Although not my favourite, we had as much milk to drink as we wanted. There was always a big jug of fresh milk in the ice box, and newly churned butter in glass bowls. Our hen house full of hens provided us with enough eggs for our own use, and with lots left over for Mother to peddle in Renfrew every Saturday morning.

We could expect a chicken dinner every Sunday. Mother, long before we would set out for church, would have stuffed at least two fat birds and put them in the Findlay Oval oven.

If there werenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t enough vegetables in the sand bin to tuck around the chickens, we made do with bowls of pickled beans or canned tomatoes from the cellar.

Although Father never considered it a meal, Mother had what we all called her â&#x20AC;&#x153;everything goes into itâ&#x20AC;? pot of soup simmering just about constantly on the back of the stove.

Hulls of vegetables, anything left over from the dinner table, scraps of meat, leftover gravyâ&#x20AC;Ś whatever she could ďŹ nd, went into the soup-pot.

Father, most nights, when he wasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t too tired from dawn to dusk working in the ďŹ elds, would sit down just before he fell into bed, and with a couple pieces of home made bread sponging up the soup, ate heartily of what he called â&#x20AC;&#x153;a wee bite before turning in.â&#x20AC;?

No, on thinking about it, I worried for nothing. We wouldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t starve on the farm just because the barrels were empty. Food was all around us, and there was always Briscoeâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s General Store, where we could stop for maple cookies, a couple slices of bologna, and the basics like ďŹ&#x201A;our, tea and sugar. All we had to do was ask for it, and tell Mr. Briscoe, â&#x20AC;&#x153;just put it on our bill, please.â&#x20AC;?

Brown marmorated stink bug breeding in Ontario Community - Help protect our crops.

The Brown Marmorated Stink Bug (BMSB) is an invasive insect pest from Asia. It is now established in parts of southern Ontario.

Early detection in new geographic areas is important for limiting economic loss to Ontario agriculture.

As an update to reports of homeowner finds of BMSB, the Ontario Ministry of Natural Resources have now found conclusive evidence that this invasive alien pest has established itself in Ontario.

Several life stages, including eggs, nymphs, and adults have been collected over the last few weeks in a homeowner garden and a wildlife sanctuary in Hamilton.

BMSB adults have previously been found at multiple homeowner sites (indoors) in Hamilton (2010-2012) and at a single site in Newboro.

There have been unconfirmed reports of BMSB in other locations OMAFRA and the University of Guelph have ongoing surveys for BMSB in field crops across the province; to date, the pest has not been detected in any crop.

pest is and how well it is established.

There is a monitoring network for this pest; however, we have a better chance of finding pockets of small populations if more people are looking. Tracking the distribution and spread is essential.

If you think you have found BMSB, contact the Agriculture Information Contact Centre at 1-877-424-1300 or email ag.info.omafra@ontario.ca. Place the insect in a leak proof containPHOTO COURTESY OF OMNR er and add rubbing alcohol, or freeze to kill it. If you think you have found BMSB, contact the Agriculture Information Contact For more information visit the OMAFRA Centre at 1-877-424-1300 or email ag.info.omafra@ontario.ca. Place the insect in website at www.ontario.ca/stinkbug. a leak proof container and add rubbing alcohol, or freeze to kill it.

WHERE DOES IT COME FROM?

BMSB is an invasive alien species native to China, South Korea, Taiwan and Japan.

It was introduced to North America in the mid 1990s, and was first detected in Allentown, Pennsylvania in 2001.

While BMSB is capable of natural spread, the pest is also an excellent hitchhiker and can be moved over large distances in cargo and vehicles.

At present it has been found in at least 37 states, though many of these are simply detections rather than confirmed as established in the field. BMSB has a very broad host range that includes tree fruit, berries, grapes, vegetables, agronomic crops, ornamental trees and ornamental shrubs.

Damage results when nymphs and adults feed on either vegetative or fruiting plant parts.

The pest is highly mobile and can readily switch hosts, moving between crops throughout the growing season.

In 2010 and 2011, BMSB was seen in extremely high numbers in the mid-Atlantic region of the US, where growers reported significant economic loss in multiple crops (particularly tree fruit).

DON’T BITE

Adults overwinter in sheltered areas that may include homes and other heated buildings. As they can aggregate in very large numbers, the BMSB has become a considerable nuisance pest for homeowners where established.

While the bugs do not bite humans, they will release a foul smell when handled or otherwise disturbed. They do not lay eggs or reproduce inside structures.

Aggregation in artificial structures is not common among stink bugs, and is a behaviour that provides an early warning of where BMSB has become established.

At the very least, these interceptions provide important information on where to target future surveys.

HOW TO HELP

Early detection is important to the long term success of management programs.

We need to have a better understanding of where this

ADHS students to hold 20-year reunion Saturday Community - Platform shoes, barbwire tattoos and Nirvana t-shirts were in vogue the last time the Arnprior District High School class of 1993 was together.

After 20 years, the shoes maybe flatter, the tattoos covered up and the t-shirts worn in secrecy on laundry day, but the school spirit remains.

So the alumni students are holding a reunion at the Nick Smith Centre on July 13 featuring the musical talent of Big Picture. Tickets cost $25 and the event starts at 8 p.m. While the organizing committee is concentrating on contacting all 186 ADHS graduates from 1993, alumni from every year are welcome to attend.

But the graduates of ‘93 weren’t ready to settle for just one evening of fun. They have dedicated July 12 to14 as officially Alumni Weekend.

The alumni have not forgotten about the younger generation. They are holding an ‘I LOVE ADHS’ fundraising campaign, selling stickers and gear. The money raised will help a future ADHS graduate obtain postsecondary school education through a bursary.

Themed t-shirts, hoodies and stickers can be purchased from Peter Anas’ business class

at ADHS and through their student store, The Hub. I Love ADHS stickers can also be bought at Pete’s Computer Solutions, Mulvihill Insurance and MacPherson’s Plumbing for $2.

The organizing committee is encouraging alumni to post photographs of themselves on its Facebook group (I LOVE ADHS) sporting their stickers or clothing.

As part of its fundraising, the group will help run a Policing Partnership community bingo at the Arnprior Legion Monday, June 17. The proceeds from the first game will go toward the bursary.

The ‘93 class is also in the midst of discussion with the owners of East Side Marios, The Prior, Danny Mac’s Pub and John Street Pub to organize more events, such as a possible Red and White Pub night on July 12 at 8 p.m. for all alumni to mingle with graduates from all years.

Tickets for the 20-year reunion can be purchased online at www.adhs93.com or in person at MacPherson’s Plumbing and Mulvihill Insurance in Arnprior.

More information can be found by contacting Karen Barsoski at barsoski@hotmail.com.

Electric harp promises to soothe the soul at Bluesfest Newly formed Firebelly hits the stage July 13 Michelle Nash michelle.nash@metroland.com

Entertainment - Firebelly will flex its electric muscles at Bluesfest for the first time this July 13.

Band members Fredy Carrière, Dan Grewal and Mike McNeil knew each other for many years before coming together to play a few tunes with fellow musician Mathieu Gagnon one December night.

It was shortly after that evening that the band now known as Firebelly formed. Carrière said it was that particular winter evening jam session at the Rainbow Bistro that sparked the beginnings of the band. â&#x20AC;&#x153;From the first song, all of us knew we were on to something that night,â&#x20AC;? Carrière said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;(We) are good friends who enjoy creating and improvising. Each member contributes their unique personality and musical talent to the band.â&#x20AC;?

The band has been moving quickly through the Ottawa-Gatineau music scene and will mark the first of what they hope will be many Bluesfest gigs on July 13 when they take to the Black Sheep stage at 5 p.m.

The sound of Firebelly offers blues fans something a little different -- an electric harp has been thrown into the mix.

SUBMITTED

Firebelly will perform at RBC Ottawa Bluesfest this July 13 on the Black Sheep stage at 5 p.m.

Gagnon is the lead singer and harp player.

Carrière said Gagnon is a captivating storyteller, with the rare ability to make the audience feel as though they are living through the

song. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s his sweet, powerful voice and electrifying harp playing,â&#x20AC;? Carrière said.

This electric harp is combined with the

smooth and funky bass guitar playing by Grewal, McNeilâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s lively drums and the guitar playing of Carrière to create what the band describes as a â&#x20AC;&#x153;stripped downâ&#x20AC;? blues sound, influenced by blues legends such as Muddy Waters, Sonny Boy, B.B. King, Albert King, Stevie Ray Vaughan and Buddy Guy. The band also incorporates elements of funk, swing, folk, zydeco, roots and country.

This year has been a busy one for the young band.

Within one year of existence they have represented the Ottawa Blues Society at the International Blues Challenge (Memphis), received commercial radio airplay on Ottawaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s local blues station and have been invited to perform in an all-blues showcase at Canadian Music Week.

For the performers, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not all about their own performance: the group said they are looking forward to hearing some of the bigger names hit the stage. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The line -- up-blues and non-blues -- of the RBC Bluesfest is fabulous this year,â&#x20AC;? Carrière said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We look forward to catching some great bands and establishing some contacts with other musicians.â&#x20AC;?

Bluesfest will not be the only festival stop this summer for the group. The band previously played the BlackSheep Inn in Wakefield, Les Brasseurs du Temp and will be performing at the Calabogie Blues and Ribfest this Aug. 16 as well as other local venues, such as, the Rainbow Bistro, the Atomic Rooster and Ireneâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s.

For more information about the band or to see the bandâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s summer schedule, visit firebellyband.com.
