Poverty report ranks Ontario last in funding social programs Derek Dunn derek.dunn@metroland.com

EMC news – Ontario is dead last among provinces when it comes to funding social programs, a new report revealed.

An Ontario-wide coalition of almost 100 groups and organizations, called Ontario Common Front, examines growing inequity. On Aug. 29 it released Falling Behind: Ontario’s backslide into widening inequity, growing poverty and cuts to social programs.

Despite having among the world’s most highly educated workers, an abundance of natural resources, and an industrial base, the report shows that Ontario is falling behind the rest of Canada in terms of growing poverty, increasing inequity and flagging financial support for public services.

It blames choices made by governments, not international economic trends, for the downward spiral.

See Constance, page 2

“Today, 600,000 Ontario families find their incomes stalled or falling behind, while the richest 10 per cent gallop away with the bounty from the sustained period of economic growth stretching from the mid-1900s to 2008,� the report reads.

The report found that: • 40 per cent of Ontarians, 600,000 families, are struggling with incomes that are stagnant or declining; • Ontario funds all of its social programs, including health care to education, at the lowest rate in Canada; • While poverty rates fell in five provinces, Ontario had the second highest increase in poverty rates and intensity, leaving 393,000 children in poverty (one in seven); • Ontarians pay the highest school fees, outof-pocket health care fees and tuition fees in the country while leading the nation in cuts to corporate and income taxes.

It blames both the Liberal and Progressive

Conservative governments for prioritizing tax cuts for the wealthy over equality-creating public programs.

The report tracks the decline with examples such as: the average CEO takes home 250 times the income of the average Canadian, while a generation ago that ratio was 25 times the average.

If you live in Constance Bay and surrounding area, you couldn’t miss the biggest community event to take place in decades.

Bay Days ran from Aug. 23 to Sept. 3, providing a huge variety of entertainment and attractions for people of all ages and interests.

Constance Bay celebration finds activities for all ages Continued from front

A revival of a festival that marked summer in the riverfront community for more than 50 years, the current version of Bay Days comes after a 20-year hiatus. A spirited group of volunteers in the Constance and Buckham’s Bay Community Association (CBBCA) breathed new life into the traditional summer celebration.

The ambitious 13-day event was run by more than 73 local volunteers and a host of supporters. With something for everyone and every age, Bay Days hit Constance Bay like a tidal wave.

Bay Days 2012 came to its pre-closing much as it opened; larger than expected crowds, a few hiccups, and a lot of smiling faces. Last week, with bad weather and an impending burn ban on the horizon CBBCA president and Bay Days event general manager Ian Glen pulled some Bay Day’s outdoor activities back a day and pushed others inside to prevent cancellations. Despite the schedule changes an estimated crowd of 500 was on hand for the previously event closing fireworks display that started with a series of remote rockets, too large for the community centre property, followed by 25 minutes of continuous rockets and low level pyrotechnics that raised several ovations from what was a very impressed and appreciative audience.

FIREWORKS DELAYED

“We’ve had a fireworks team working on this for months, lead by the David Goodkey for the CBBCA, Glen Howald of GSH, the Fire Service, and Ottawa Event Central, but in the end the pros have to make the choices on the ground to guarantee everything is safe. It delayed things 20 minutes but the 18 volunteers on the team, including GSH, and our sponsors at Deka gave us another best ever for Bay Days,� said Glen.

Bay Days had a distinct historical flavor with a theatrical production of Samuel de Champlain’s arrival, events of the past, and 12 bands covering 90 years of music. “ When Bay Days was conceived last year it was to be a revival of an annual weekend event that started in 1923 and was last seen over 20 years ago. For rural north-west Ottawa Bay Days was the marquis summer event that brought area farmers and cottagers together. Bringing back the days of competition on the beach and the great evenings with friends at the Casino Dance Hall, and commemo-

rating the 40th anniversary of the Casino formally becoming the area community centre, were the original motives of the Constance and Buckham’s Bay Community Association.

With the launch of Sandhills, the area’s infrastructure, program and service project, Bay Days morphed into a 13 day, 30 event festival. “It was like delivering an extra year of work into a week and a half time slot. In June and July the program seemed to grow every week as more volunteers, professionals, and local businesses came to the table; some like La Osteria and Copperdale added entire events while others like GSH and Dekka took a very good event and made it exceptional, and several of the bands who donated their talents to the cause. These people transformed our community event into a best in class show and a successful Sandhills fundraiser even though attendance was under our target of 2,700.�

BAY DAYS 2013

Asked if residents could expect something bigger and better for Bay Days 2013 Glen was quick to respond; “the next year is about serious fund raising towards our Sandhills goals. We have a golf tournament Sept. 22 with Copperdale and have to move simultaneously into our sponsorship and philanthropy campaign. We’ll be looking at making a number of Bay Days activities part of our regular program but in 2013 Bay Days will need to be significantly reduced. Of course, there is now a Bay Days army and they may choose differently. As far as making it better goes; we had a dozen very different bands and each was exceptional in their genre, the sound and stage production was perfect, the food was top notch, and I can’t imagine drawing a broader cross-section of people or getting bigger smiles.�

One of Glen’s personal favourite events was the big band night, featuring Standing Room Only along with a fish and chip dinner. “The fish fry was worth waiting for! Best fish and chips ever. Many thanks to Alf, Anita, Chris Nagy, and all the crew who worked so hard all day to get the new deep fryers going and cooked up that meal. That was a first for us and bodes well for what we will be able to do in our new kitchen!�

Though some events over the span of the festival had to be cancelled due to lack of

Proceeds from the festival will be used to help offset the development costs of Project Sandhills. In partnership with the City of Ottawa and Western Ottawa Community Resource Centre, the CBBCA and its local supporters are planning a comprehensive, two-phase expansion of the Constance Bay community centre. “The project is a response to the community’s most important program and service needs – the library, health and fitness programming,� said Glen.

Phase One, slated for 2013, will see a 5,000 square-foot addition to the community centre complex at a cost of $1.9 million. The final phase, estimated at $100,000 will renovate about 1,000 square feet of existing space to launch a series of new programs and services.

Another Bay Days highlight for Glen was greeting ‘Samuel de Champlain’ on his return to the bay to promote a celebration next summer to mark the 400th anniversary of the original landing. “Over 100 people visited SV Black Jack at the weekend,� said Glen. “Thanks to Andy for all the ferrying.�

For many, the sold out dinner put on by local restaurant La Osteria was a memorable attraction, while others favoured the lobster and steak

night.

Musical entertainment was provided by a wide range of local and professional acts, headlined by bands such as The Cooper Brothers and David Gogo. Also performing on the outside stage was The Stephen Thomas Band, Paperboys, and Latin Breeze. The Foxy Morons closed out the festival Monday night.

Past president Len Russell also noted the fish and chip night as a standout. “It was another great night spent with our 120+ closest friends.�

He said the popularity of the event could lead to an encore later this year.

Russell also wanted to salute the hardworking and dedicated volunteers. “A sincere thank you to our 73 volunteers who brought us this far and a special thanks to George, Claudia and the kids for their wonderful generosity in bringing us a fabulous La Osteria night.�

Volunteer Heather Lucente commented on the wide variety of items donated for the Silent auction. “There was original stained glass artwork, gift certificate and products from Kanata Plastic and Cosmetic surgery , fashion flip flops by Love Beach, memberships from Sparks Tae Kwon Do, original art by local artist Brenda Beattie, photo prints from our calendar, wellness water effects fountain, 750 chip deluxe poker set, lead crystal vase, gift baskets and more.�

Citizen advisory groups slashed from 15 to five Laura Mueller laura.mueller@metroland.com

EMC news – Twenty-three people lined up to give city councillors their swan song for advisory committees on Aug. 30.

After it was all over, the city’s governance renewal subcommittee and finance committee had slashed the number of official citizen advisory groups from 15 to five. The move also shifted The Ottawa Built Heritage Advisory Committee from an advisory group to a subcommittee of planning committee mostly comprised of councillors, and a seniors’ group will become an annual round table event instead.

The changes are aimed at saving $190,000 annually.

Glebe resident Bob Brocklebank likened the restructuring to a “mercy killing.�

The city has allowed the advisory committees to wither and become irrelevant, making the act of killing them simply the final stage, Brocklebank said. “Put advisory committees out of their misery,� he said.

Patrick Quealey, former chairman of the environmental advisory committee, agreed, saying that the groups have been treated “disrespectfully and shabbilyâ€? by the city. “At a time when people are disengaging ‌ these people want to participate. That should be valued,â€? Quealey added.

Many of the 23 delegates who spoke to the

committee on Aug. 30 agreed it was time for some changes to advisory committees.

In 2011, 48 advisory committee meetings were cancelled due to lack of quorum, and most were cancelled at the last moment, which is administratively expensive for the city.

Many things have changed since the city amalgamated in 2001, when the advisory committees were established. Access to technology and the availability of social media tools are changing how residents interact with the city and politicians. Other engagement strategies such as summits and departmental working groups have proven more successful as well, according to a report from the city clerk’s office.

Representatives from the Federation of Citizens’ Associations were disappointed that the advisory committee restructuring wasn’t presented in a context of a broader citizen engagement strategy, something that won’t happen until December. “This kind of sounds like a bureaucratic triumph over common sense,� said Don Stewart of the FCA. The mandates of the five new advisory committees will be: accessibility; arts, culture, heritage and recreation; community services; environmental stewardship; and French language services. They will officially meet quarterly, but each group can call additional informal meetings.

While some topics like poverty and diversity

will no longer have a dedicated advisory group, the function of many of the advisory committees will be absorbed in other ways.

The transit commission and health board both now have citizen members who can represent residents on those topics, the city’s report states and business groups are to be represented by Invest Ottawa (formerly OCRI). Rural issues have a forum during the open mike sessions at agriculture and rural affairs committee meetings.

The Ottawa Built Heritage Advisory Committee will evolve from a citizen group into a subcommittee of planning committee, with representation from three citizen experts and four city councillors.

That was a point of contention amongst heritage advocates, who told the committee that the unbalanced representation would eliminate the group’s effectiveness. “Ottawa is proposing to become an anomaly of heritage in Ontario,� said Leslie Maitland, president of Heritage Ottawa.

The built heritage committee used to have council members on its roster, but they asked

to be removed, Maitland pointed out.

But planning committee chairman Peter Hume argued the change would create “advocates� for heritage issues on city council. “Right now, there are no council advocates around the table for heritage,� he said, adding that more time spent on heritage issues alongside experts would give built heritage subcommittee councillor members the ammunition and expertise they need to defend heritage issues to their council colleagues.

A more formal structure will help the city attract the kind of citizen experts it wants to see on the committee, Hume said, referencing the problems the city has had in recruiting built heritage committee candidates.

Maitland took exception to that. A four-time published author with 35 years of experience in architectural heritage, she applied two years ago and never received a response.

While the advisory committee structure did need an overhaul, the city missed the mark on the built heritage committee, Maitland said. “You’re trying to fix something that isn’t broken,� she said.

All Saints students look to raise $20,000 for cancer research School to hold Terry Fox Run on Sept. 28 Blair Edwards blair.edwards@metroland.com

Eddie the Yeti will storm the streets of Kanata Lakes to drum up support for the participants in All Saints Catholic High School’s annual Terry Fox Run on Sept.

28.

The school mascot plans to travel ahead of the runners in a car along with several student council members who are organizing the event.

The organizing committee began planning the event well before the start of classes this week.

“It’s kind of like the first big event of the school year,” said Jen Ham, 17, a member of the student organizing committee.

“We want to (rev) students up and Terry Fox will help us do it.”

Many students’ lives have been touched by cancer in some way, said Aaron Doucet, 17, another member of the organizing committee.

“It is kind of personal,” he said.

“My grandmother died of cancer.”

Aaron said he considered Terry Fox one of the greatest Canadians who ever lived.

The student council hopes to raise more than $20,000 from this year’s run – $7,300

more than the total raised at last year’s event.

“I feel we could exceed it,” said Aaron.

The All Saints student council hopes to raise most of the money through pledges online at www.terryfoxrun.org.

ROUTE

The five-kilometre run will start just before lunchtime on Sept. 28 at the high school and continue along Kanata Avenue, then loop back across several residential streets and parks.

The event will stagger start times, with runners going first, followed by walkers.

The school will offer a barbecue lunch for the participants.

A week before the event, the school will hold an assembly to discuss the reason for and the importance of the annual run.

“We’re hoping to (bring) a personal touch,” said Victoria Medeiros.

“We’re hoping to have students come and share their stories.”

The organizing committee hopes this will encourage all students to fundraise.

Lansdowne Conservancy legal bid goes belly up laura.mueller@metroland.com

EMC news - The beleaguered Lansdowne Park redevelopment project cleared one of its last legal hurdles last week when the Ontario Court of Appeal dismissed a request for appeal from the Lansdowne Park Conservancy on Aug. 28.

The decision effectively shut down that legal challenge against the $300-million project and allows work to move ahead on the project.

The legal challenge brought

by Glebe resident John Martin’s Conservancy group was dismissed as an abuse of process by Ontario divisional court on March 23. Between that decision and the most recent rejection by the Court of

Appeal, Martin and the Conservancy have been ordered to pay $11,000 to the City of Ottawa in legal costs.

In a statement sent on Aug. 29, Martin wrote that it is unfortunate a competitive procurement process for the has been “sidelined.â€? “There is more than sufďŹ cient time for the City of Ottawa to conduct a competitive bidding process and develop this public asset in a manner respectful of the heritage and public nature of the site,â€? Martin wrote. “The choice is now up to our elected ofďŹ cials.â€?

The Conservancy case is the second legal challenge to the project to be rejected by the courts. The Friends of Lansdowne spent $600,000 going to the Ontario Superior Court.

serve power elites instead of the majority of voters. “Mostly it’s that people are willing to believe what is convenient. If they don’t want to give money to the poor, it can be as simple as greed,� he said. “I think that’s a false self-interest.�

Ontario Health Coalition director Natalie Mehra, primary author of the report, said the province is on a ďŹ ve-year plan to cut public sector jobs and services that will worsen the situation for everyone.

She said Ontario residents are paying for the current shortfall in “hundreds of ways,� from the highest tuition and school fees, the highest proportion of outof-pocket health care costs, a burgeoning array of user fees, and thousands of families wait years for support for children with disabilities.

He said the solution is to shift the burden away from the working and middle class to restoring a balance with the wealthiest. Increasing the income tax rate by one per cent of those making over $500,000 per year – about 30,000 people in Ontario – would “cover everything missing on social spending,� he added.

However, Goddard admits there are plenty of catchy slogans and false arguments that convince poor people they deserve to be poor.

There is the “rich people have earned their wealth� argument which often isn’t true because of inheritance laws.

There is the “rich people create jobs� argument which isn’t borne out by statistics showing most jobs are created by small and medium sized businesses.

There is the “government can’t do anything right� argument which blames civil servants rather than politicians who

right,� Goddard said. “It’s always easy to blame the poor.�

He noted Kanata is one of the wealthiest areas of the country. But even there personal debt is piling up and two-income families are no further ahead than the one income families of the 1960s and 1970s.

Goddard said the reality of trickledown economics – introduced by Margaret Thatcher and Ronald Reagan during the early 1980s - is that kids get neglected because parents are working longer hours, communities suffer because fewer people can volunteer their time, and ecological and ďŹ nancial debt is loaded onto future generations.

In West Carleton, where Goddard lives, poverty can be masked somewhat.

But the reality is many people are couch surďŹ ng and using the emergency food cupboard like never before.

STOP the Destructive Mission of a Cigarette Butt Josée Adam, Project Officer

I am a cigarette butt and my mission in life is to cause mass destruction.

Yes, I am like an evil superhero, a menace to society. I pride myself for being almost indestructible - I am not biodegradable, so I never really break down and die. I am also made up of harmful chemicals, making me a threat to children, wildlife and the environment. One of my favourite pass-times is to prey on the vulnerable.

Toddlers and young children are curious and innocent, so I can easily fool them. For example, the other day, a 16 month-old girl was playing

in a park sand box and noticed me on the ground. She was curious about what I might be and she picked me up and put me in her mouth expecting a surprise. A surprise she did get, but not the one she wanted. She started to choke and her parents had to take her to the hospital. On the way there, the little girl was vomiting, lethargic and gagging because the poisonous material that I am made of was making her sick. She is only one of many who fall prey to my devious nature.

My intention is not only to directly

cause harm to toddlers and young children, but I also love to surf the major waterways while contaminating the water with my super-toxic chemicals like lead, arsenic and cadmium. Yes, more than 200,000 of me were collected as part of the Great Canadian Shoreline Clean in 2010. My surfing activity leads fish to believe I am bait and they swallow me. Birds pick me up and bring me to their babies as food or use me as toxic nest-building material. Aha! I again succeed at spreading destruction wherever I go.

All this is to say that I am a public nuisance and cities pay a lot of money to try and get rid of me. For example, the City of Ottawa spends $5.5 million dollars every year cleaning litter – including cigarette butts like me – from roads and parks. I am planning to continue my destructive journey and I dare YOU to try and stop my negative health, environmental and financial impacts. Are you up for the challenge? .....................................................

Cigarette butt litter is an important issue that must be addressed.

What can you DO to stop its destructive mission?

• Put the evil butts in their place, where they belong: the butt box or a portable ashtray.

• Dispose of fully extinguished matches and partially smoked cigarettes as well as lighters and packaging in the garbage bins.

DON’T: • Put butts in storm drains • Throw them out of a car window since it can start a wildfire.

• Bring them to places where children and toddlers play – parks, beaches and sports fields - or to natural environments that are contaminated by their presence.

Immunization – Update your Child’s immunization Information with Ottawa Public Health Kathy Selst, Public Health Nurse

Routine immunization is one of the safest and most effective ways to prevent illness and death from many serious contagious diseases. These diseases, while rare in Ontario due to high vaccination rates, still exist, as seen in recent outbreaks of measles and whooping cough (pertussis).

Routine Immunization Schedule Immunization offers the best protection against diseases when given according to the recommended schedules.

Students are ones caught in labour battle crossfire

P

lease, won’t someone think of the children?

Ontario’s government and teachers’ unions don’t seem to be.

The cash-strapped Ontario government and several of the province’s teachers unions are embroiled in a battle over proposed legislation to force a wage freeze on elementary and high school teachers.

The unions say they are willing to accept a wage freeze, but call the government’s bill unconstitutional

and a violation of workers’ rights.

The bill, titled Putting Students First, also calls for teachers to take a 1.5 per cent pay cut in the form of three unpaid professional development days and elimination of banked sick days.

Ontario Premier Dalton McGuinty insists these measures are necessary to maintain jobs and continue to roll out the full-day kindergarten program across Ontario.

Meanwhile, a growing

number of teachers, angry over what they call heavyhanded legislation, are threatening to withdraw voluntary services, such as coaching teams and directing plays after school.

The media also has reports of teachers who are considering removing class educational materials they have purchased out of their own pocket.

Both the government and the teachers say they are fighting for students’ education.

We beg to differ.

The Ontario government’s bill was created to balance the books – and preserve Dalton McGuinty’s legacy as the “education premier.�

The teachers are simply trying to preserve their collective bargaining rights.

But the kids are getting caught in the middle.

If teachers individually choose not to volunteer after school, that could mean fewer extra-curricular activities available for students.

Our children should not be used as a collective bargaining chip.

Premier McGuinty, for his part, should keep in mind that teachers freely volunteer their time to provide extracurricular activities for students.

The dispute almost seems a little silly, as both sides have agreed a wage freeze is necessary, at least for the short-term.

It’s ridiculous that both sides are engaged in what amounts to last-minute

negotiations.

A deal should have been worked out months ago.

Instead of ironing out a deal, it seems both sides have engaged in a little game of Russian roulette.

Unfortunately, it’s the province’s children who will end up the ultimate losers in their little game.

Both sides need to abandon their public posturing, and focus instead on working out a deal that addresses each other’s concerns.

COLUMN

Staying connected on the dock CHARLES GORDON Funny Town

R

eflecting back on the summer just passed, it is possible to conclude that there is something changeless about summer life in Canada – the lakes, the loons, the summer breezes, the sounds of the birds, the roar of the motorboats, the quiet two-lane roads, the trailers in front of you on the two-lane roads, the grilled cheese sandwich beside the highway. There’s good and bad in it, but it hasn’t changed much in decades.

Sure the cottages are bigger, the toys are faster and louder and a simple lifestyle that once was common is now regarded as primitive.

But can it really stay the same? The time spent at cottages and on the highway this summer makes me wonder. For this was the summer of Wi-Fi, the first of many.

In the remotest parts of Northern Ontario, the smallest motels offered Wi-Fi on their signs along the highway. Wi-Fi or some other forms of connectivity were in evidence on devices brought to the cottage. Connectivity was everywhere. Getting away from it all was nowhere.

Which is different, because the cottage used to be the one place that was unconnected. Sure, there might be a phone, but nobody used it much. Even the telemarketers didn’t seem to know the number. As for email, it was a distant dream, or nightmare, depending on how you viewed it.

This was frustrating for some people, not so for others. The others were perfectly con-

tent to find out what was going on in the city when they got back to the city. They could live without the latest news, the latest blogs.

But for some it was frustrating to be out of touch. And you could tell, this summer, by how often they sat with their devices, the phones and iPads and laptops, looking at newly-connected screens. The fact is that for most of us connectedness is no longer an option. People expect us to be online and answer immediately. We open emails with the expectations we used to have about opening the mail. Something good might be there: the Queen wants to meet you, a previously unknown rich uncle has died and left you millions, someone wants to film your life story.

Not being able to have access to this news has been a drag. Now the drag is gone and we can stay in the real world – as if life in the city is somehow more real than life beside the lake.

Will Wi-Fi spoil the summer experience?

Not for those rare individuals who can take it or leave it, who can spend days without looking at a screen and only check their email once a week.

But it will definitely be spoiled for those who hoped to spend a few weeks free of people reading them funny items found on the Internet. On the other hand, the absence of connectedness makes some people difficult to live with. They are antsy, irritable, always charging off to the library or the nearest coffee shop to check emails, even if the nearest one is a boat ride away plus many kilometres on the highway.

Now that they can check their emails on the dock they will be easier to live with. And when you have a family argument about some arcane movie trivia you can refer it to Google, thus heading off hours of debate.

Maybe you can even find the instructions for the chainsaw.

You take your small blessings where you can.

The Farmer builds a canoe The happy sound of sawing and hammering has been coming from the shed for weeks squashed at the foot of the stairs like the Wicked Witch of the West, with my feet and arms sticking out from under the contraption.

When we got to the top of the stairs, we realized we couldn’t get it through the door. “How did you get it downstairs in the first place?!”

I asked. The Farmer deduced he probably put the saw and other heavy items like the freezer in the basement before putting the door – and possibly the walls – on.

He had to let go to run out to the shed for a screwdriver and hammer.

“Don’t move,” he said, as he slowly released the full weight of the table saw onto me.

I held my breath for a minute, then my muscles started to shake, and finally I started to giggle, just as he reappeared in the doorway, tools in hand. Finally we got the thing up and out of the patio door, down the porch stairs and out to the shed, where the canoe would be built.

ADVICE

I keep waiting for our Cree friends to show up. They would probably have some advice on the easiest way to go about building a canoe.

Join others in Constance Bay shoreline cleanup

DIANA FISHER Accidental Farmwife

We’ll have to wait until goose hunting season and see if they appear, unannounced, on our doorstep as one or two of them do every year.

The Farmer bought three books and studied them enough to get the gist of the operation – but he still occasionally comes across some interesting obstacles.

For example, after building the skeleton frame for his canoe and then steaming and bending long, thin strips of cedar over that to form the body of the canoe, he suddenly wondered how he would get the finished canoe off the frame.

“Doesn’t one of your books tell you how to do that?” I asked. He shook his head, a little doubtfully. I’m not convinced he read them in their entirety. After all, how can one stick to “Canoe Craft 101” when “50 Shades of Grey” is waiting on your beside table??

YOUTUBE

I suggested he search through YouTube for a how-to video. He just stared at me. Oh yeah. The Farmer thinks computers are for work. Period.

He never logs on at home.

On Sunday, the kids came

over for dinner. Andrew and Anastasia wandered out to check on the progress of the canoe. Within about 5 minutes Andrew had figured out how to get the canoe off the frame without busting up the interior skeleton.

Sometimes it just takes a second set of eyes. Personally, I don’t know why we need to preserve the skeleton.

It isn’t like the Farmer is going into the canoe-building business.

Next, he set about his search for various unique brass do-hickeys and thingies for the canoe.

He didn’t have to look far.

The Aylings Marina in Merrickville is a treasure trove of paraphernalia for antique boats.

He even shopped local for the canvas outer covering of the canoe. Joe Sparling at Kemptville Fabrics had some hidden away in storage: it has a strong smell so his wife wouldn’t let him keep it in the store.

The happy sound of sawing and hammering has been coming from the shed for weeks.

The canoe is now wrapped in canvas and the Farmer is trying to figure out a way to shrink-wrap the fabric.

This should be interesting.

We want to keep it that way.

Some threats we have little control over, such as runaway development, changing water levels and polluted runoff.

EMC Lifestyle - When the Farmer is on holiday, he often works harder than he does at work.

Physically, anyway. And his favourite thing to do when on holiday?

Build something.

My husband once told me that if he knew then what he knows now—that an engineer does more than just drive trains—he would have been one.

He has built four houses, a barn, a deck, a sunroom, several dollhouses (one of them life-sized) and his new project is a cedar strip canoe.

Step one to this project was getting the old battlehorse table saw out of the basement.

It’s as wide as it is long, and very awkward to move because you can’t get your arms around it in either direction.

And it’s heavy as a tank.

The Farmer tipped it up and slid his dolly under it, then wrapped some lift cords around and under it to secure the thing.

Next he called me to come help him lift it up the stairs.

He pulled and I pushed, one step at a time, with every ounce of strength we had. It was slow going, but we made it up the stairs without tipping it over onto me.

A Thick-billed kingbird surprised birders by showing up in Ontario. as far as Leamington, was already admiring the bird.

It conveniently perched atop trees, affording terrific views through binoculars and spotting scopes.

The kingbird sported brown upperparts and a pale belly, which was yellow on its lower portion.

When it preened, the crown feathers parted revealing a

yellow patch at their base. Our Eastern Kingbird has a similar patch but it is red.

The crown patch is usually revealed whenever a kingbird is aggressively driving away a larger bird such as a hawk, a behaviour that earned the group its appropriate name.

Why did the kingbird wander to Ontario?

Well, it is not uncommon

Regardless of why they wander, vagrant birds such as Bill Gilmour’s Thick-billed Kingbird create a rush of endorphins that etch lifelong memories for their discoverers.

Tips to help manage your daily commute City offers tools to help motorists and transit users plan routes to avoid construction zones and traffic EMC news – As back-toschool and work traffic get rolling for another year, motorists will notice an increased number of road construction projects and a higher volume of traffic. However, the City of Ottawa and other organizations have the tools to help motorists and transit users plan their routes and manage their commute to avoid construction zones and traffic congestion.

“We are making significant investments to improve our transportation network for drivers, transit users, cyclists and pedestrians,” said Mayor Jim Watson. “To help with your commute, the City offers a number of resources to get you to your destination quickly and safely.”

The city’s Ottawa.ca website, which can be accessed by home computers and handheld electronic devices, features: • The City of Ottawa traffic report outlines citywide road closures, traffic restrictions and detours; • The interactive traf-

fic map shows construction areas and live traffic cams throughout the city and the Ministry of Transportation cameras along Highway 417; • Cycling maps and information – detailing bicycle pathways and lanes throughout the city.

To keep you posted on traffic alerts and closures, follow the City on Twitter.

Residents are also encouraged to take advantage of OC Transpo’s Service. Transit users can chart and plan routes with the Travel Planner at octranspo.com or find the closest stops and best estimated bus arrivals with the OC Transpo app, which is available for Apple iPhones and IOS users.

Also check for private iPhone and Android mobile apps that are geared to help in your daily travel around Ottawa.

In addition to these tools, motorists are encouraged to take advantage of teleworking options if available at their workplace or flexible hours to avoid peak traffic times and congestion.

“One out of every five

roads in Ottawa is in need of renewal or reconstruction. We are solving this by focusing on rebuilding and renewing our city,” said Marianne Wilkinson, Chair of the Transportation Committee. “While this work could potentially cause delays on the roads now, the road renewal and reconstruction activity will pay off for all of Ottawa in the future.”

Ottawa is now embarking on an exciting journey of transformation that will revitalize and renew our community into a modern, worldclass city.

Transforming Ottawa includes construction on The New Lansdowne, Ottawa Light Rail and Ottawa on the Move, a $340-million investment in accelerated infrastructure projects to help mitigate impact on the roads during the light rail construction.

The City of Ottawa is committed to helping residents manage their commute as the city undergoes a major transformative period until the implementation of Light Rail in 2018.

Studio tour to be a first for Arnprior area art group Wide variety of media on display at Arnprior and Beyond Arts Discovery Tour

SUBMITTED

Fibrefest features five locations this weekend EMC events - The Mississippi Valley Textile Museum’s popular Fibrefest is returning for its 17th year this weekend (Sept. 8-9).

The event runs at five Almonte-area locations from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. Saturday and 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. Sunday.

The cost to enter all Fibrefest sites is $5 per day.

The Mississippi Valley Textile Museum, North Lanark Agricultural Hall, Almonte Old Town Hall, North Lanark Historical Museum and Mill of Kintail will feature everything from fibre art vendors and demonstrations to exhibits.

Local guilds will be on hand to demonstrate the arts of knitting, lacemaking, smocking, weaving, spinning, quilting, penny rugs, button collecting and more.

Judy Miller is the event’s featured textile artist.

She combines fabric-painting techniques and free-motion machine embroidery to produce works rich in colour and texture.

The featured group exhibit is TREES by Threadworks, a special project of the Ontario Network of Needleworkers’ 1,000-plus members.

Threadworks is a juried exhibition that is mounted every three years and travels across Ontario to many museums and galleries.

Fibrefest’s featured events are the Tweed Ride and Doors Open Mississippi Mills.

The Tweed Ride is a gently paced ‘weave’ on bicycles through town and out into the country wearing a stylish outfit of a bygone time.

It starts Saturday at 12:30 p.m. at the Almonte Fairgrounds.

Tweed Rides are happening around the Globe in support of good causes. The charity supported by Almonte’s ride is ‘Bicycles for Haiti’.

Doors Open is a celebration of community heritage and an opportunity for participants to visit many of the historic and architecturally significant sites in Carleton Place, Almonte and area.

This year organizers are opening the doors to churches, inns, a clock tower and even a waste water treatment plant.

For more information about Fibrefest, contact the museum at 613-256-3754, ext. 7 or email info@mvtm.ca or visit www. mvtm.ca.

The Cooper Brothers were one of the headline acts to perform Thursday August 30 at Bay Days.

Though turnout for shows was less than what organizers had hoped for, they were satisfied with the caliber of the entertainment provided.

Lobster night was a delicious success. Volunteers Anita Kamps (left) and Anne Currie enjoyed the meal and entertainment by the Keystrings.

Bay Days participation could have been higher: volunteer Continued from page 2

“The beach day was a success.

While swimming did not draw a lot of interest, the boating events were a hit. Just letting the kids play with the paddle boats, kayaks, wind surf boards and canoes made the children happy.

“The children also loved the treasure hunt and kept coming back to try it over and over again. We learned a lot about what to do differently and what worked and did not but were pleased to see a lot of happy, enthusiastic children. The children loved having a parent participate with them in events so we will do more events that include parent/child next year

(even though the parents were not quite as enthusiastic).”

Unfortunately, Currie did not have as much success with the Talent Show, which was cancelled due to lack of contestants.

“Apparently a lot of young people are shy to get up on stage and show their stuff,” she said. “Other than that, I do not know why there was so little interest. It is difficult to figure out what young people want as far as entertainment goes. Adult participation was no better so maybe people are just over this kind of entertainment and we will have to rethink what to do next year. A lot of effort went into organizing this event and

when we ended up with more volunteers than participants.”

Commenting on the overall small turnout for much of the planned events, Currie said, “We tried to do too much.

In my opinion, the lack of participation by the community was interesting to say the least. While there was a lot going on that drew from our events such as the Dunrobin Meat and Grocery golf tournament, the Shawville Fair, the Kinburn Festival, etc., I do think there was a concerted effort by the not so secret water-

front committee to stay away from events in protest to the whole beach issue. They did block off the beach at the Point on Beach Day so they were doing a sort of silent passive/aggressive protest.”

Currie added that, “It is hard not to be disappointed in the participation level for all the events partly because of the tremendous efforts put in by the organizers and their volunteers.

Some of the people I know of that have put in literally days of effort are Ian Glen,

Alf and Anne Currie, Mike Oatway, Rick Dooher, Anita Kamps, Penney and Gord Johnson, Kirk Mandy, Len Russell, Heather and Walt Lucente, Andy Wurzler, Sandi Sbardella, Dave and Jill Goodkey, Virginia Blondin, Janet Laverne, and Vera Jones.”

The next Project Sandhills fundraiser is a big golf tournament Saturday Sept. 22 at Copperdale Golf Club.

The noon shotgun start and will wrap up with a prime rib dinner, prizes and awards presentations at the Constance Bay Community Centre. Call 613-832-1070 to register.

EMC events - A fledgling Arnprior area arts group is putting local artisans in the spotlight.

The Arnprior and Beyond Arts Association (ABARTSA) will hold its inaugural Arnprior and Beyond Arts Discovery Tour on the Sept. 29-30 weekend.

This studio tour, running 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. both days, will guide visitors through a scenic route as they visit nine participating studios in Arnprior, McNab-Braeside, Renfrew and Pakenham. At each studio between one and four local artists will have examples of their work on display along with information on the different art workshops offered by many of the participants.

A wide variety of different artistic media will be shown, including oil, acrylic and water colour painting, byzantine icons, handmade jewelry, art photography, digital art, blown glass, mosaics, metal sculpture, wood carving, and painting on egg shells.

The intent of the tour is to attract residents and visitors to the area in order to promote the skills of local artists and to put the Arnprior area on the artistic map. In total, 24 individual artists are participating in the tour.

ABARTSA has created a website at http://abartsa.wordpress. com. You can download the map as well as the full addresses of the participating studios from the website or look for one of the tour brochures at participating stores and organizations.

The event has received sponsorship from a number of local companies that have shown interest in the tour and would like to help attract visitors to the local region.

The brochure shows the route and includes descriptions of the participating studios and artists and their various media.

ABARTSA is a group of dedicated, professional artists formed earlier this year. Members are interested in promoting the arts within Arnprior and the surrounding communities through public exhibitions, affiliations with businesses and government, workshops, and supporting the community.

During the recent Arnprior 150th anniversary celebrations, ABARTSA participated through its Art in the Park exhibition.

ABARTSA also recently took part in the Renfrew Art in the Park exhibition.

REAL ESTATE How to improve your home’s curb appeal

SO

LD

* Make the home accessible through the front door.

Many homeowners enter their home through a side door or through their garage.

If you fall into this category, keep in mind that prospective buyers will be entering through the front door, so make this area accessible.

Clear any clutter, such as overgrown hedges, away from the front door, and consider upgrading the door handle to a more modern feature. In addition, make sure the lock on the front door doesn’t stick, forcing the realtor and buyers to immediately struggle before entering the home. You want buyers and their real estate agents to get in and out of the home as smoothly as possible. * Make sure all plants, including flowers, are living.

Dehydrated or dead plants and flowers are eyesores, and they will give buyers the impression that you didn’t pay much attention to your property. Make sure all plants are alive and thriving and replace those that aren’t. You can replant new flowers or plants or just use potted plants instead. When purchasing new plants, choose low-maintenance varieties that appeal to buyers who want good vibrant plants but might not want to put in much work into the garden.

When selling a home, homeowners can employ a number of tactics to improve their home’s curb appeal.

and effective way to improve curb appeal. Edge driveways, sidewalks and other walkways around the property, removing or trimming anything that is hanging over the driveway or walkways. If the boundary between your driveway and lawn is not distinct, consider installing edging materials such as stone or bricks. The edging can be level with the driveway or elevated, but keep in mind that elevated driveway edging can protect the lawn, preventing kids from riding their bicycles onto the lawn or cars from driving onto it. Adding edging is not a very difficult do-it-yourself project. * Take to the trees. Many homeowners grow accustomed to overgrown trees around their property and may not notice that lowhanging, unsightly branches are hiding the home from view. Buyers want to see the house, so take to the trees and trim any branches that hang too low or obscure your home. * Clean the gutters. Leaves and sticks hanging from the gutters are a red flag to buyers, who tend to associate clogged gutters with roof damage. Clean the gutters thoroughly before putting your home up for sale and keep them clean throughout the selling process. If your property includes lots of trees, install guards to keep twigs and leaves out of the gutters.

Men and women who have tried to sell a home are likely familiar with the phrase “curb appeal.” Curb appeal is similar to getting ready for a big date, only you’re not dressing yourself up to make a strong first impression. Instead, improving curb appeal involves dressing your home up in the hopes it makes a strong first impression on prospective buyers, many of whom will have a strong opinion about the property before they even get out of their cars to have a look around.

A home with strong curb appeal can entice buyers who are likely to believe that a home with a well-maintained exterior is likely to have an equally impressive interior. Homeowners who want the process of selling their home to go smoothly can improve the property’s curb appeal in a number of ways, many of which don’t necessitate a substantial home improvement budget. * Clean up. The most effective way to improve curb appeal is to clean up the property. Many homeowners are savvy enough to remove toys and other items from the yard before showing a home, but cleaning up goes beyond removing clutter from the property. Make sure all hedges are trimmed and remove weeds, sticks and other debris from any flower beds. Lay mulch in the flower beds and garden, as mulch prevents weed growth while helping the soil retain moisture, resulting in more attractive gardens to catch a buyer’s eye. * Get an “edge” on other sellers. Edging is another easy

Some schools implement costume restrictions race, gender and personal handicaps. Weapons of any kind, including fake weapons, are typically prohibited. Most schools are not interested in promoting or glorifying violence. Therefore, a pirate may have to leave his sword home. A girl dressed as a police officer may have to go sans gun or handcuffs.

Parents who are unfamiliar with the guidelines should err on the side of caution. Restrictions are often imposed on: * costumes that depict gangs and horror characters or are overly scary; * weapons of any kind; * costumes that demean race, religion, nationality, handicapped condition, or gender; * costumes with obstructive masks; and * overly sexy costumes.

Other schools are coming up with their own guidelines on costumes that are even more strict

than banning goblins and zombies. In 2009 a Texas school issued suggestions for â&#x20AC;&#x153;positive costumes,â&#x20AC;? which included historical characters or healthy food items.

Some parents do not necessarily want schools to police Halloween costumes. There are those who believe that responsibility falls on parents and that common sense should prevail. But schools do not want to risk alienation or negative press surrounding fun events like Halloween parades. Therefore, most prefer to take extra caution on what costumes are allowed.

Before spending money on elaborate Halloween costumes, parents should learn the policies on clothing and accessories implemented by their childâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s school. This way they donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t have to return that stealth ninja costume come October 30.

One new game that has caught the attention of educators and parents alike is the new Perplexus 3D game maze by Plasmart Inc. This is a 3-dimensional maze game where players manoeuvre a small marble around challenging barriers inside a large-sized transparent sphere. Unlike traditional flat-surface mazes that are composed of one path, Perplexus challenges playersâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; problem solving abilities with

numerous paths to choose from and hundreds of barriers to overcome. Players can race each other or the clock. In addition to being an entertaining game, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a valuable tool for cognitive development, encouraging children to exercise their problem-solving, motor and dexterity skills, as well as improving their hand-eye coordination.

Experts say the game is just as challenging for adults as it is for children and will especially keep parent solving skills sharp as well.

Dressing up in a costume and participating in parties and parades at school is part of the excitement of Halloween for children.

Many schools across the country have some sort of Halloween festivities where children are encouraged to don their costumes and show off for friends and family.

However, before parents run out and purchase costumes, they may want to check with schools to see if there are any limitations on kidsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; costumes. Many schools have implemented guidelines on Halloween costumes and could have strict rules as to what is and is not acceptable.

Schools often put these rules in place for the protection of children. They want to shield younger children from very scary costumes that may lead to nightmares. Costume restrictions also include costumes that may mock

The best time of year to find bargains Carpet and Flooring Prior to the holiday season, many homeowners are busy making home improvements so their home is welcoming and pristine for visiting guests. After the holidays end, however, such DIY projects often get placed on the back burner. To boost activity, home improvement stores usually cut prices on carpet and flooring during the month of January.

Furniture Although furniture is usually updated in stores biannually, many furniture retailers also run sales close to major holidays. Independence Day and the rest of July is a popular time for sales.

Boats Although there are those who argue that the best deals are had at area boat shows, others recommend visiting dealerships between January and March to get last yearâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s models as boat re-

tailers are making room for new inventory.

Garden Tools Although many homeowners still may be cleaning up from winter storms and shoveling snow, those who want to get ready for spring can go shopping for garden tools in March.

Electronics Economists urge American and Canadian consumers to purchase major electronics in the spring, notably April. This is when the Japanese fiscal year ends, and many Japanese companies coincide the release of new models at this time of year. Therefore, older models might be slashed in price. Those interested in a computer may want to wait until August, when stores cut prices to coincide with backto-school season. Shoppers interested in televisions should do their shopping in January, when products are discounted prior to the Super Bowl.

Automobiles Consumers interested in purchasing previously owned cars can shop in April.

tober is the best time to buy because this is when dealerships receive new inventory and are looking to clear out last yearâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s models.

Some stores do this as early as August, when they are already getting ready to make room for Halloween and Christmas displays.

Summer Seasonal Products Lawnmowers, air conditioners, patio furniture and pool equipment typically go on sale around September and October. Stores are switching over to their fall merchandise and are looking to clear out any remnants of summertime, even if the weather is still quite warm.

Swimsuits Swimsuits go on sale in August to make room for fall accessories. Although some people will argue there is never a good time to go bathing suit shopping, if a good price is a requirement, then August is the time to do so.

Weddings It is well-known that the summer months are peak times for weddings -- and expensive prices. Budget-conscious couples can consider a November wedding, where costs may be much less and vendors not in much demand. Try to have the wedding prior to the holiday season, when catering halls start booking rooms for Christmas parties.

Knowing when to buy items during the year can add up to considerable savings.

The savvy shopper knows there is no reason to pay full price if you donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t have to.

Timing is everything when bargain hunting, and with a little patience, most people can find deep discounts on items that might have broken the bank just a few weeks prior.

Shopping with coupons often requires clipping the coupon and then trying to match it up with a discounted price being offered by the store to maximize your savings. All of this has to be done prior to the couponâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s expiration date. Many veteran bargain hunters prefer to shop seasonally, instead. This means waiting until stores put items on clearance or run large sales.

Knowing the best times to buy certain products can save consumers hundreds or even thousands of dollars over the course of a year. The following is a list of items and the seasons during which those types of items are most likely to be sold at a discount.

Reason’s to Choose Pointe of Grace

How to encourage kids to be more physically active When today’s parents reflect on their childhood, many likely recall seemingly endless days spent playing outdoors.

But when today’s kids become tomorrow’s parents, chances are their recollections won’t recall nearly as much time spent idling the days away under the sun.

According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, roughly 17 percent of American children and adolescents between the ages of 2 to 19 are obese. In Canada, where self-reporting data collection methods have made such statistics more difficult to quantify, the prevalence of overweight and obesity in children is also on the rise, according to the Canadian Community Health Survey.

The rise in overweight or obese children is likely a byproduct of several factors, not the least of which is that many of today’s kids prefer to play a video game on the couch instead of going outdoors and being physically active.

The potential ramifications of youngsters choosing a more sedentary lifestyle are dangerous, as it increases their risk for high blood pressure, high cholesterol, type 2 diabetes, respiratory ailments and joint problems, among other things.

What’s more, numerous studies have found that obese or overweight children are more likely to become obese or overweight adults, which highlights the importance of embracing a physically active

lifestyle as a youngster.

Parents know it’s not always easy to get kids to be more physically active. But the following are a few tips parents might find useful when encouraging their kids to embrace a more active lifestyle. * Give toys that encourage physical activity. Kids love toys, and their toys will often dictate how they spend their days. Instead of buying the latest video game console, give kids toys that encourage them to be active. This can include balls, bicycles, jump ropes, or even a backyard swingset.

Kids who embrace these activities at a young age are more likely to continue doing so into adolescence and adulthood. * Reduce time spent in front of the television. Parents who can effectively minimize the amount of time their child spends in front of the television, whether reducing their time spent watching television or playing video games, will likely be more successful at instilling a love of physical activity as well.

The American Academy of Pediatrics recommends parents limit their child’s time in front of the television to one to two hours per day, and that includes the time children spend playing video games. To further reduce kids’ time watching TV, don’t allow televisions in their bedrooms, as that will only make it harder to monitor

just how much time kids are spending in front of their TVs. * Remember that physical activity should be fun. Not all kids are athletic, and some will likely bemoan participating in recreational sports leagues. But that doesn’t mean parents should give up on encouraging physical activity. Instead, find a physical activity that your child finds fun and encourage his or her participation.

This might be nontraditional kids’ sports like cycling or jogging or activities like dancing, hiking or even bird watching. Once a child exhibits a healthy interest in a physical activity that you have deemed safe, encourage it. * Set a positive example. Kids, especially younger children, look up to their parents and often try to emulate what Mom and Dad are doing.

Parents can make the most of that adoration by setting a positive example and being physically active themselves. Go for a nightly bike ride or a walk around the neighborhood with your youngsters in tow. Or put that elliptical machine in the basement to good use.

Whatever physical activity you choose, you can bet your children will express an interest in it as well, and that’s a great way to make them more enthusiastic about having a healthy and active lifestyle.

College kids can be eco-friendly, too is plugged in, for example, is consuming energy even if itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not turned on. This is known as phantom power, which devices including televisions, box-top cable or satellite devices and video game consoles consume even when no one is using them. Instead of plugging televisions and other devices directly into a wall outlet, plug them into a surge protector power strip that can be turned off when you leave your room. This not only protects the devices should a power outage occur, but it also means they wonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t be consuming energy while not in use. * Freshen your room up naturally. College residences, especially dorm rooms, have a reputation for being somewhat

musty. Instead of relying on air fresheners with chemicals, choose an all-natural alternative that wonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t release harmful chemicals into the air each time you spray your room. And donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t overlook houseplants as a way to freshen the air and add to your roomâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s aesthetic appeal. * Choose lights wisely. Many dorm rooms are poorly lit, and students know to bring their own lamps to help them make the most of late-night study sessions. When shopping for a lamp for your room, choose one thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s compatible with compact fluorescent light bulbs, or CFLs. CFLs consume significantly less energy, last far longer than traditional light bulbs and illuminate rooms just as effectively.

* Learn to make your own coffee instead of visiting the local coffee shop each morning and buying another coffee served up in a styrofoam cup.

Purchase a reusable travel mug you can bring along to class and encourage your roommates to do the same.

Many of todayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s college-aged youngsters are socially conscious, fully aware their choices affect not only themselves, but those around them as well. One of the more popular causes among young people is the go green movement. Many of todayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s college students have learned about the environment since they first entered school, and the goal of living a more eco-conscious lifestyle is a cause that resonates with students on college campuses across the country.

Though itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not always easy to be eco-conscious in a dormitory, there are ways todayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s college students can live greener lives on campus. * Wash clothes in cold water.

Few college students enjoy doing laundry, but even this tedious task can be done in a way thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s considerate of the environment. Instead of using hot water to wash your clothes, wash them in cold water, which requires significantly less energy to clean clothes than hot water, which needs energy to heat up. * Protect your appliances and the environment at the same time. Todayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s college kids have more gadgets than ever before. Cellular phones, mp3 players, tablets, laptop computers, flatscreen televisions, and video game consoles might make life more enjoyable, but they also consume a substantial amount of energy, even when not in use.

WC Electric has Carp on ropes in fastball playoffs John Carter John.carter@metroland.com

EMC sports – West Carleton Electric is on the verge of pulling off a major upset in Greater Ottawa Fastball League playoff action.

The Fitzroy Harbour-based team edged Carp 14C Victory 5-4 at home Aug. 21 to take a 2-0 lead in the best-of-five series over Carp.

West Carleton Electric had upended its rivals 7-4 in Carp in the first game of the series Aug. 16. Carp had finished the regular season in second place with a 11-6-1 record, just two

points behind league champion Kars Aces, while WC Electric finished in seventh and last with a 6-11-1 record.

The third game of the series is set for tonight (Thursday) at 9 p.m. in Carp, the 14C Victory needing a win to stave off elimination. If a game four is required it will be played Monday, Sept. 10 in Fitzroy Harbour.

It took a late rally by WC Electric to win game two, with Trevor Barton singling in the Andy Barber for the winning run in the eighth inning.

Barber had doubled in Charlie Ross to tie the game at four.

Barber, who earned the win in relief of starter Steve Cavanagh, was named player of the game.

Carp had taken an early lead when Kevin McGuire smacked a two-run homer in the first and added another on a Neil Cooke dinger in the second.

Down 3-0 and limited to three hits in the first six innings, WC Electric erupted for three runs in the bottom of the seventh. A single by Neil Murphy and a double

by Jeff Cavanagh resulted in runs and Troy Wilson’s solo homer tied the game

and forced extra innings.

After giving up a run in the top of the eighth, WC Electric scored twice to pull out the victory. Cooke took the loss.

Barber pitched a complete game victory in game one.

Instead of falling behind like it did in game two, Electric jumped out to a 4-0 lead in the top of the first.

They stretched it to 5-0 in the fourth, but Carp replied with four runs in the bottom of the fifth. Triples by Cooke and McGuire and a homer by Matt McNish were the key blows.

However, Electric did not

fold and scored two insurance runs in the sixth when Derek Barber tripled and Jeff Cavanagh homered.

The two rivals played close games in the regular season with Carp winning 6-4 and 22 in Fitzroy and WC Electric winning 4-2 in Carp.

In other series, the Barrhaven Broadway Blues leads the Stittsville 56ers 2-1 and the Quyon Combat Flyers lead the Ottawa Taylor’s Blitz 1-0 as the week started.

Winners of each series will meet the Kars Aces in a double-knockout tournament Sept. 14-15 in Manotick to

determine the GOFL playoff champs.

The final season standings are as follows: 1. Kars Aces: 12-5-1 = 25 2. Carp I4CVictory: 11-6-1 = 23 3.

Quyon Combat Flyers: 9-7-2 = 20 4.

Barrhaven Broadway Blues: 7-8-3 = 17 5. Stittsville 56ers: 6-10-2 = 14 6.

Ottawa Taylor’s Blitz: 6-10-2 = 14 7. Fitzroy Harbour WC Electric: 6-11-1 = 13 For more on the local fastball happenings, visit http:// fitzroyfastball.blogspot.ca/.

Allen McGee wins record First national youth his sixth district title karate tournament

EMC sports – It’s becoming par for the course for West Carleton golfer Allen McGee. The Arnprior Golf Club member a record-setting sixth straight Ottawa Valley Golf Association men’s A Class championship last week.

McGee staved off a late charge by Ottawa Hunt Club member Chris McCuaig to win the tournament by one stroke.

BIG WIN

He shot a two-over-par 74

at Rivermead Aug. 30 on the third and final day of the tournament for a 215, just enough to win.

McCuaig, who won the title in 2003 and 2004, shot a 71 on the final day, shaving McGee’s margin from four strokes to one. McGee needed a clutch putt on the final hole to avoid a playoff.

Greensmere’s Lyle Alexander was third at 223 and Kurtis Barkley of Cedar Glen was fourth at 224. Two strokes back in fifth was another Arnprior Golf Club

member, James Paterson, whose final day 74 gave him a 226 total.

McGee bolted into the lead with an even-par 72 last Tuesday at Greensmere. He and McCuaig, who was playing in the tournament for the first time since he won in 2004, were tied for the lead with 69s after the first round at Greensmere Aug. 27.

McGee’s fifth straight citydistrict title last year had tied him with Chaudière’s Frank Corrigan who won five times in the years 1932 to 1938.

EMC Sports – It’s an ancient art that has taught selfdiscipline and strength for thousands of years, and this year Sensei Dave McNamara of the Smiths Falls Japan Karate Association will use these skills to host the first ever national youth karate tournament.

The National Capital Youth Open Karate Championships tournament is open to athletes 17 years old and under and will be held at the Smiths Falls District Collegiate Institute on Saturday, Nov. 17.

The tournament is expected to attract the countries best in all karate styles.

“We’re anticipating 200to-300 participating,” said Sensei McNamara.

The full day of competition will begin with a morning seminar from Master M. Saeki Sensei, a seventh degree black belt and the highest ranking Japan Karate Association (JKA) instructor in Canada. Master Saeki will

be introducing those outside of the Shotokan style to the rules of engagement that will be in play for the rest of the day.

Following this, a qualifying tournament will be held where every participant will receive a participation medal for their efforts and the top athletes will go on to the championship round that will take place around 2 p.m.

Nathaniel McNamara, Sensei’s son will be among the participants entering the inaugural competition this year. Over the last five years or so the local eight-year old has worked his way to his purple belt and plans, after November’s competition, to work towards his brown belt.

There are three brown belt levels before moving on into black belts.

When athletes aren’t on the floor they will be welcome to take part in Siloki laser tag, which will be set up indoors for everyone’s enjoyment.

Sensei McNamara is excited to bring the first national

youth tournament to Smiths Falls and celebrate with the karate and local community the achievements of youth in sport.

“For me, a great experience is seeing a kid come and walk out of there a changed person,” Sensei McNamara said of teaching.

Sensei McNamara has 41 years of Karate training. He currently trains under the guidance of Master Saeki Sensei.

Shotokan Karate focuses on a linear fighting style that emphasizes speed and power, while all the while focusing on internal growth and development of character.

Karate in general has many benefits, including improved focus and structure in life.

More information on the upcoming tournament will be available closer to the event.

Special event sponsors for the inaugural youth tournament are welcome and can contact Sensei McNamara at 613-291-7762 or via email at senseimac@hotmail.com.

Second Grant Fletcher of Galetta, left, joins vice skip Rico Silvestro of Galetta, lead Gerry Laporte of Ottawa, and skip Dave Jefferies of Galetta were big winners at the annual Governor General’s Tournament recently.

Galetta bowlers contribute to interprovincial wins in Kingston EMC sports - The 84th Annual Governor General’s Tournament, a bowls competition between Ontario and Quebec was held at Kingston Lawn Bowls Club on Sept. 1.

The Governor General’s Lawn Bowling Tournament was established in 1928 when then Governor General His Excellency, the Right Honourable Viscount Willingdon presented a silver trophy to the Eastern Ontario Lawn

Bowling Association (EOLBA) for annual competition between Men’s Fours teams from the EOLBA and the Québec Lawn Bowling Federation.

In 1957 the EOLBA became part of Ontario Lawn Bowls Association. Competition for the Willingdon Cup enters its 84th consecutive year in 2012.

Beginning in 1993 Women’s Fours teams from Ontario and

Quebec have also taken part in the Governor General’s Tournament.

The women’s teams compete for the Governor General’s Rose Bowl. This trophy was donated in 1994

by His Excellency, the Right Honourable Raymond John Hnatyshyn.

Since 1987 Ontario and Québec have hosted the championship tournament in alternate years; prior to that year

the tournament was always hosted by a bowling club in or near Ottawa. Galetta Bowls Club hosted the Tournament in 2006.

This year, Ontario hosted the Governor General’s Tournament for the first time.

Both Ontario men’s and women’s fours teams won the championship with teams composed of bowlers from Galetta and the Kingston area.

Queensway Carleton opens new wing, dialysis centre Jennifer McIntosh jennifer.mcintosh@metroland.com

EMC news - Terry Lavergne will get back 10 days a year thanks to the new satellite dialysis centre at the Queensway Carleton Hospital on Aug. 30.

Lavergne, who lives in Woodlawn, has travelled to the General Hospital to receive treatments for more than 20 years. Treatments for patients in need of dialysis are performed three times a week for three to five hours.

“When you need dialysis your life changes,” Lavergne said. “You have to work your job, your family life around the treatments.”

Coming to the QCH will save him more than an hour of travel time per treatment, and up to four hours per week.

“It might not seem like much but it’s time I can spend with my family,” Lavergne said.

The first patients were scheduled to visit the new satellite dialysis centre on Sept. 4.

“It’s all about the patients,” Tom Schonberg, president and CEO of the QCH said. “When we hear from them it really hits home the importance of what we do.”

The hospital’s new four-story tower on the west side of the campus is part of a $126-million expansion. James Gary Beach, the tower’s namesake, donated $5 million to the hospital’s fundraising campaign.

Beach said the hospital staff saved his live.

He was at a cottage in Quebec when he fell ill.

“I got myself to the first hospital

Terry Lavergne, a long-time dialysis patient of the Ottawa Hospital, says the satellite unite at the Queensway Carleton Hospital will save him 10 days a year in travel time.

I could find on the Ontario side and went,” he said, adding the staff sent him home after being unable to determine the cause of his illness.

“They said to go home and go to

the hospital if I got any worse. There wasn’t much chance of getting worse because I was as sick as I could be,” he said.

Back at his home in Nepean,

Beach said he was laid up in bed when he asked his wife to get the neighbour – a doctor at the QCH – to have a look at him.

The doctor immediately saw he needed to be in the hospital and called ahead to have the surgeon wait.

Within minutes Beach was on the table having surgery to deal with a nasty stomach infection. He recovered in the hospital for nearly a month.

Five years later when his father needed palliative care, Beach

brought him to the hospital that had saved his life.

“He truly received the best care possible,” Beach said. “You can really see that patients are the priority.”

The satellite dialysis centre features televisions and pristine hallways with lots of light, along with grey-cushioned chairs that have adjustment buttons to improve kidney patients’ comfort.

“You feel like you’re about to take off in a rocket,” said Dr. Peter Magner, medical director of dialysis at the Ottawa Hospital.

Mayorâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Report

Parliamentary expert tapped as cityâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s first integrity commissioner Laura Mueller laura.mueller@metroland.com

EMC news â&#x20AC;&#x201C; A veteran expert of Parliament Hill integrity issues has arrived to oversee ethics at city hall.

The city announced on Aug. 29 that River Ward resident Robert Marleau, a former clerk of the House of Commons and former federal information commissioner, has been appointed as Ottawaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s first integrity commissioner.

Marleau said he was interested in the job because everything was not predetermined and he could have input on the development of things like the council code of conduct.

The cityâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s level-headed approach to integrity issues impressed him, Marleau said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Many other governments and public institutions do this under duress because of a crisis of sorts,â&#x20AC;? Marleau said.

As a citizen of Ottawa and someone who is well-versed in ethics and integrity issues, Marleau said he felt the role was both important and a good fit for him.

A graduate of the University of Ottawa, Marleau served as the interim federal privacy commissioner after 13 years as the House clerk. He was the information commissioner

Robert Marleau, left, a former clerk of the house of commons and former federal information commissioner, is introduced as the cityâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s first integrity commissioner by city clerk Rick Oâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;Connor, right, on Aug. 29. for Canada for more than two years before abruptly resigning in 2007. He was chosen from a pool of 18 candidates who applied for the job.

Mayor Jim Watson said Marleau is respected both locally and nationally. â&#x20AC;&#x153;His word will carry weight,â&#x20AC;? Watson said.

The new integrity commissioner said he sees his role as a resource for councillors to get advice on the sensitive situations that arise from political life. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I think what councillors need is someone they can consult in confidence about issues which emerge around the vulnerabilities of public life and have the benefit of an

independent, above-the-fray, non-political advisor, and conduct themselves accordingly,â&#x20AC;? Marleau said, adding, â&#x20AC;&#x153;it would be up to councillors to resolve those issues themselves.â&#x20AC;?

His greatest challenge will be getting to know the politicians and senior staff at city hall, Marleau said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m very familiar with the elected official, but this is a different environment,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I have a learning curve.â&#x20AC;?

Marleauâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s work will include developing a code of conduct for members of city council, as well as any related policies, such as an expense policy and gifts registry. He will also pro-

duce an annual report summarizing complaints, investigations and advice to the city and suggestions for improvements that could be made to the accountability policies he will oversee.

But Marleauâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s first job will be managing the new lobbyist registry that goes into effect Sept. 1.

The online tool lobbyists will use to register is â&#x20AC;&#x153;excellent, simple and intuitive,â&#x20AC;?

Marleau said. Now the next step will be developing materials for both city politicians and lobbyists so they know what is expected of them.

While Marleau said he takes his direction from city council, he said it would be very difficult for him to accept anything less than complete independence.

Ottawa is the latest city to jump on the integrity bandwagon, Marleau said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I think there is a trend in government in North America right now, in all levels, to be a lot more transparent,â&#x20AC;? Marleau said.

Technology makes it difficult for governments to hide anything, he said, so it makes sense to be proactive. â&#x20AC;&#x153;They may as well be clear with the citizen, and they may as well inform them,â&#x20AC;? he said.

BUDGET 2013: HAVE YOUR SAY

By Jim Watson

http://www.JimWatsonOttawa.ca

In our ďŹ rst two years, City Council delivered ON OUR COMMITMENT TO KEEPING TAX INCREASES below 2.5 per cent, and in the upcoming 2013 budget we will do the same. This allows us to continue to invest in our communities, our infrastructure, our transit system and our families in a ďŹ scally responsible manner.

Budget 2013 will be tabled on October 24, which means that between now and then I am looking for your input. I am going to be speaking with families and businesses, and consulting with Councillors and staff, on how WE CAN CONTINUE TO KEEP TAXES UNDER CONTROL while protecting the services residents EXPECT This is a collaborative effort and I value the constructive input I receive each year during the budget consultation process.

Last year, I heard consistently from residents that our roads, sidewalks and other INFRASTRUCTURE WERE NOT UP TO PAR &ROM THIS feedback came the creation of the Ottawa on the Move program. We took bold action with a $340-million investment over three years to improve our transportation network for drivers, transit users, cyclists and pedestrians.

You can relay your budget ideas by e-mail to budget2013@ottawa.ca and on Twitter using the hashtag #ottbudget. There will also be in-person budget consultations held across Ottawa in late October, which I encourage you to attend.

It is important that residents are engaged in this process and I will be doing all that I can to ensure that your voices are heard.

It is also important that we receive speciďŹ c suggestions on how to save money.

7E DELIVERED ON OUR TAX COMMITMENT IN 2011 and 2012 and I look forward to doing it again in 2013 with the help and insight from residents.

The ABCs of packing a healthy school lunch

EMC lifestyle â&#x20AC;&#x201C; The food your child eats for lunch and snacks should provide the energy and nutrients to help them get through the school day, as well as aid in their growth and development. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Teeth and gums need a wide range of essential vitamins and minerals to grow and be healthy, just like your childâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s body,â&#x20AC;? says Dr. Arthur Worth, president of the Ontario Dental Association. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Nutrient-rich foods strengthen your

childâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s teeth and gums, making them less susceptible to tooth decay.â&#x20AC;?

When planning a childâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s lunch, include foods that are nutritious and beneficial - not only for their overall health but for their oral health too, urges the dental association.

Calcium and vitamin D are necessary for the growth and maintenance of strong teeth.

Foods high in calcium help strengthen tooth enamel, while vitamin D allows the body to

better absorb calcium.

Other essential vitamins and minerals necessary for optimal oral health include phosphorous, magnesium and vitamins A and C. Here are a few ideas, courtesy of the dental association, of what to pack in your childâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s lunchbox: â&#x20AC;˘ Fruits and vegetables.

Citrus fruits and kiwi fruit are good sources of vitamin C - important for healthy gums.

Carrots and dried apricots

are good sources of phosphorous, which is needed for tooth development. â&#x20AC;˘ Smart snacking. Growing children and teens often need more than three meals a day. Smart snacking will ensure they have the energy they need to take them through the school day. Whole grains (in snacks like crackers and granola bars) and nuts provide protein, as well as being rich in magnesium and phosphorous.

contain vitamin A, a nutrient essential for building strong teeth. â&#x20AC;˘ Cheese, yogurt and milk all contain calcium. Cheese also stimulates saliva production, which helps clear away food particles from your teeth. Low-fat yogurt (with no added sugar), cheese slices on whole-wheat crackers and small containers of milk are great options. â&#x20AC;˘ Protein-rich foods like meat, poultry and fish. They

â&#x20AC;˘ Cut the cola. Opt for water, milk or pure fruit juices instead of carbonated drinks.

Soda, sports drinks and sweetened fruit juices often contribute to tooth decay because of high sugar and acid content. â&#x20AC;&#x153;As a parent, I know it can be difficult to get your child to eat more healthy fare, but establishing healthy eating habits and good oral hygiene early on in life is one of the best things you can do for your children,â&#x20AC;? says Dr. Worth. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It sets them off on the right path to good oral and overall health.â&#x20AC;?

Youth treatment centre ready for guests Michelle Nash michelle.nash@metroland.com

MICHELLE NASH/METROLAND

Janie Papineau and Marie-Eve Cayer work the desk at the new francophone youth treatment centre in Vanier. The two ladies will be in charge of admitting patients once the centre opens on Sept. 18.

The beds will be available for youth who need treatment beyond regular working hours.

They will receive around the clock care for up to 60 days of treatment and Boileau said if more treatment is needed, stays could be extended even longer.

Youth who will be checking in have been identified either by their own family doctors or by school counsellors. In Ot-

tawa, Maison Fraternité has counsellors in all the FrenchCatholic schools. These therapists will determine which youth would benefit from inpatient care.

Each patient will have their own room with a bed, desk and closet. The kitchen and laundry rooms are shared and there are two full bathrooms.

There is also a designated classroom. While staying

at the centre, school work will remain a top priority for the youth, who will work with two full-time educators weekly and a part-time educator who will be available on weekends. The school board will provide computers for the classroom at the centre.

“They can’t fall behind in their school work,” Boileau said. “School will be provided throughout their stay.”

It will not be an easy ride for the youth staying at the centre, they will be expected to clean their rooms, washroom and common rooms as well as do their own laundry.

They will also have to prepare their own breakfast and lunch.

Dinner will be provided by the centre.

Boileau said the residential treatment centre’s budget of $850,000 is based on five

EMC news - Francophone youth in need of residential treatment for drug and alcohol abuse will have improved opportunities now that Maison Fraternité’s six-bed addition is complete.

The sleek new addition to Maison Fraternité, located at 300 Olmstead Rd. will welcome its first set of youths on Sept. 18. The expansion allows for the centre to offer inpatient care for the first time, beyond the day programs currently available for francophone youth in Ontario.

Executive director Denis Boileau and his staff see the expansion as a way to offer complete care for struggling francophone youth not just in Ottawa, but across the province.

“Imagine being hurt and not being able to express how you feel,” Boileau said. “That is what it has been like for francophone youth in English speaking programs. This new residential centre will offer these youth complete care.”

The Olmstead centre currently takes youth from the age of 12 to 18 and helps them learn to deal with drug or alcohol addiction by improving self-esteem, addressing concerns that arise in the home and the effects of peer pressure.

beds. The sixth bedroom was not included in the original funding. This bedroom was made possible by the architect and Boileau working together to save space.

“We wanted the extra bed just in case, for both a potential growth in the need in the future or in the upcoming year,” Boileau said. “We were fortunate that the architect made it work.”

Each bedroom is only about three by two metres, but feature large windows.

“We wanted the entire space to be flooded with light,” Boileau said.

Funding for the sixth bed is not secured and Boileau said he will be seeking funding from the city.

The 325-square-metre expansion was made possible through Project S.T.E.P., an initiative that tackles drug and alcohol abuse issues in Ottawa.

Currently, youth from Ottawa requiring treatment must travel to facilities located either in Northern Ontario, Quebec or the United States.

Project S.T.E.P. is possible through support from the province, the Champlain Local Health Integration Network, Health Canada, the Sens Foundation, the Cowan Foundation, Ottawa police, Ottawa Public Health, the Royal Ottawa Mental Health Centre and Ottawa’s four school boards.

Breast cancer survivor organizes Rock for the Cure EMC events â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Breast cancer survivor Jackie Barr of the Pakenham area is rallying local musicians together to play for Rock for the Cure Saturday, Sept. 15.

The night of live music to raise funds for breast cancer research will be held from 6 to 11 p.m. at her Love That Barr property at 2496 County Rd. 29 near Pakenham.

Musicians including Woody & The CHEZ 106 Hosers, Stone Bandits, Billy Armstrong, Rockinâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; Ray, Back To Memphis (tribute to Elvis), The Garden of Weeds, Just 2 Guys and more will be playing from 6 to 11 p.m.

Proceeds will go toward the CIBC Run for the Cure Sept.

30 in Ottawa.

Stricken by breast cancer in

1997 and again in 2006, Barr is a survivor who promise she will not stop fundraising for breast cancer research until the disease has been beaten.

Talking to Barr is often like having an encounter with a motivational audio book. Her favorite phrases ooze optimism and encouragement. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Take the high road.â&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x153;Pay it forward.â&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not the destination, but the journey that counts.â&#x20AC;?

Fifteen years ago, though, a 32-year old Barr could not have known that her life was about to take a sudden detour.

That was the day she discovered a lump in her right breast.

Less than a month later her doctors conďŹ rmed the diagnosis of breast cancer. Barr

never thought a disease could change who she was. â&#x20AC;&#x153;What sums me up is that I remember what Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve been through, and I so appreciate where I am now,â&#x20AC;? Barr often explains. â&#x20AC;&#x153;My experience battling cancer has made me who I am today.â&#x20AC;?

Barr is a true ďŹ ghter. After nine months of chemotherapy and radiation treatments, she was exhausted, but her gutsy spirit couldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t let it rest. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I couldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t just sit around and attend my own pity party.

I wanted to raise money for research to beat this disease.â&#x20AC;?

So in the fall of 1998, just months after ďŹ nishing her treatments, the CIBC Run for the Cure presented her with the â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Determination Awardâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; for being the top fundraiser in Ot-

tawa â&#x20AC;&#x201C; the ďŹ rst of three consecutive annual awards Barr collected. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I call it FUNraising, since I enjoy meeting people, and have no problem asking them to support a great cause; Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m quite successful at it.â&#x20AC;?

One of Barrâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s favorite adages at the time was â&#x20AC;&#x153;live like thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s no tomorrow.â&#x20AC;?

After celebrating the pivotal ďŹ ve-year mark of being cancer free, she was also doing her best to be carefree.

She was â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;spreading her sunshineâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; and doing her best to â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;raise other peopleâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s spiritsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;.

She couldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t have known that after eight years the disease would again attack her right breast and sheâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d have an even bigger battle on her hands.

In 2006 Barr opted for a double-mastectomy, feeling that was her best chance of survival. This time cancer didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t stand a chance. Barr beat the odds and she believes her positive attitude and stubborn determination had a large effect on her recovery.

Fifteen years after ďŹ nding the ďŹ rst lump, Barr is â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;paying it forwardâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; in a big way by organizing the inaugural Rock for the Cure on the property that is partly owned by her brother Jamie. Barr has also organized Team â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Love Those Boobsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; to participate in this yearâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s CIBC Run for the Cure in Ottawa. Proceeds from both events support the Canadian Breast Cancer Society.

Breast cancer statistics from the Canadian Cancer So-

ciety indicate that in 2012 on average 62 Canadian women will be diagnosed with breast cancer every day. On average 14 Canadian women will die of breast cancer every day.

One in nine women is expected to develop breast cancer during her lifetime and one in 29 will die of it.

Barrâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s life may not have taken the path she would have chosen, but sheâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s overcome adversity and is willing to go the distance to help ďŹ nd a cure for the disease that dramatically impacted her life. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Most peopleâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s lives have been impacted somehow by it, and I will not stop until we wipe it out,â&#x20AC;? Barr vows. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I will continue to raise money for research until breast cancer has been defeated.â&#x20AC;?

Children preferred Father’s style of punishment EMC lifestyle - We much preferred Father over Mother when it came to meting out discipline.

Father was so soft-hearted, he could never come give us a swat even if we deserved it.

Mother felt a disobedient child would never amount to a hill of beans, and not only did she on occasion have a heavy hand, she was quick to dole it out too.

Often Mother would say to Father, “Those children have to be dealt with. You look after it Albert.” This meant a trip to the drive shed, Father lighting his pipe, we five kids shifting from one foot to the other while awaiting our punishment.

Mother was sure Father was in the shed giving us a few whacks with the strap, and to make it sound like we were really being punished Father would slap the strap against his work table, Emer-

son would yelp like a wounded puppy, and eventually we would stagger out of the drive shed pretending to be almost mortally wounded from the blows that never came.

My sister Audrey blamed it on the heat. Emerson said it was because school would be going back in a couple days.

Whatever the reason, there erupted on the front lawn the most glorious fight of all time.

It started when Emerson threw a pail of water on Earl, most of which missed him and caught Audrey square in the face, which completely ruined the curls she got by enduring her hair being tied up in rags all night.

She grabbed the pail out of Emerson’s hand and was all set to swat him with it, when Everett grabbed the handle, wrenched it from her, and caught me, the innocent bystander, square on the back-

side. It didn’t hurt in the least, but always ready to make the most of any situation getting out of hand, I nonetheless started to roar as if I had been hit with a two-by-four!

It didn’t take Mother long to come out of the house to see what all the uproar was about. She always let us settle our own battles, refusing to listen to anyone who was about to tattle. But this was no ordinary disagreement.

Audrey was standing on the pump stand, screaming, the three brothers were rolling on the grass, and I was wailing that I thought my back was

broken!

Father, if he heard the ruckus, was ignoring it. Mother found him in the cow byre and she insisted he take us all into the drive shed and “deal with the whole lot of them,” she said.

Father took his pipe out of his mouth, and pointed it towards the open doors, not saying a word. He put a stern look on his face, and followed us all through the double doors.

The heat of the day was on our side. Father had been up since dawn, and even though it was early in the day, he looked wilted and tired out.

He didn’t look like he was in any mood to dole out punishment.

He asked Audrey what happened to her hair, he told Everett when the discipline was over he was to fill the watering trough, Emerson was to sort the newly bought nails into the tin cans on the shelf, Earl was to feed the chickens, and with a big wink in my direction, he said, “And you young lady have to come to Briscoe’s General Store with me.”

But he wasn’t finished with me yet, “You’ll have to eat the humbugs Mr. Briscoe gives you every time you go in the store.” Father knew I hated humbugs with a passion.

“Or you can bring them home and give them to Queenie … that old horse sure loves humbugs.” And he gave me another big wink.

Just before he let us out of the drive shed, he gave the

work table another couple good whacks with the old leather strap, Emerson let out a few roars as if he had come in direct contact with it, Earl developed the usual sniffles, and Audrey, who we all knew was too old to strap, said, “Yes I know not to get involved the next time with any fights.”

Father told me to go and wait for him beside the buggy.

He walked, filling his pipe at the same time, towards the kitchen door. “I have to run over to Briscoe’s,” he said through the screen. “Mary’s coming with me. And they’ve all been dealt with,” he added over his shoulder.

Mother seemed satisfied. I once heard her tell Mrs. Beam that she “could always depend on Albert to discipline the children. Sometimes I just don’t have the energy to handle the five of them.”

And for that, we five kids were might grateful.

Neither cake nor cookies for breakfast EMC lifestyle - One of my favourite Bill Cosby stories is one in which he tries to persuade his wife that it was okay for him to give their kids chocolate cake for breakfast.

She doesn’t believe his defence of “They made me do it! They made me give them chocolate cake!”

So he falls back on what he figures is a winning argument.

“But cake is good for you.

There’s all sorts of good stuff in it - there’s wheat and eggs and milk.” Needless to say, he doesn’t persuade her.

When I saw this recipe for ‘Breakfast Cookies’, I immediately thought of Bill Cosby’s story. These cookies also have a lot of “good stuff” in them molasses, eggs, milk, oatmeal, flour, bran and raisins.

While I don’t recommend cookies for breakfast, these make a good after-school snack, especially when eaten with an apple. And they’re not just for kids. Grown-ups like

Dragon boaters to invade Carleton Place this weekend TARA GESNER tgesner@perfprint.ca

SUMBITTED

Kelly Killeen Phillips and her sisters Christa Killeen-Darou and Karen Killeen Leonard recently donated $9,000 in their mother Audrey Killeen’s memory. The money was raised from a memorial cookbook they created a decade ago.

Daughters honour their much-loved mom EMC news - Karen, Christa and Kelly have spent the last 10 years developing and then selling a cookbook memorial of their mom, Audry Killeen.

It was almost 10 years ago, on Sept. 19, 2002, that Audry passed away at the Arnprior & District Memorial Hospital

after a brave fight with uterine cancer.

The cookbook made sense to Audry’s daughters as she was known as “the hostess with the mostess. She was at ease cooking for large crowds and enjoying time spent with family and friends. This collection is based on meals

made by Audry as well as those submitted by family and friends.

Over this 10-year period the cookbook has raised $9,000. These funds have been donated to Partners in Caring’s Digital Mammography Campaign. This piece of equipment provides women

(and men) in our area with one of the best early detection tools.

“We wanted to do something positive out of something that wasn’t positive. If we can help one family not have to go through what we went though, it was worth it,” said Christa Killeen-Darou.

EMC Events – The 11th annual Dragon Boat Festival (DBF) returns to Carleton Place Saturday (Sept. 8).

New to the sport? Dragon boats – vessels painted to look like menacing Chinese dragons – feature 20 paddlers, a steer or tiller and a drummer. The sport originated in southern central China thousands of years ago.

Crowds again are expected to pack the shores of the picturesque Mississippi River around the Carleton Place Canoe Club (CPCC) for the one-day event.

“We generally see between 1,500 and 2,000 spectators,” said Carleton Place DBF Committee president and spokesperson Peter Leithead.

In earlier years the committee capped the number of teams involved at 40, but dragon boat racing is the fastest growing water sport in the world – recognized for the strength, endurance and team spirit participants share.

“There are 48 teams this year, the demand was so great,” said Leithead, “which includes 20 women’s teams and five community teams.

The DBF draws competitors of both sexes and all ages and abilities, and most come from the immediate area.

“The bulk of the teams come from the local area, but we do get crews from Ottawa, Gatineau and Montreal,” said Leithead.

The 2012 DBF program is the same as previous years.

Races by and large begin around 9 a.m. and end just after 5 p.m. An awards ceremony is held immediately afterward.

Each competing team is guaranteed three races (timed heats, four boats at a time) on the 400-metre course, explained Leithead, and groups posting the quickest times move into the final contests: Women’s Challenge (top six women’s teams); Dale Scott Community Championship (top six community teams); and Open Challenge (top six teams).

The Women’s Challenge takes place at 11:15 a.m., the Dale Scott Community Championship runs at approximately 4:45 p.m., and the Open Challenge is a 5 p.m.

Food, refreshments and merchandise will be sold throughout the day, and a photographer will be on site to capture team pictures (for sale). The Barley Shakers, an ever-changing pool of Celtic musicians who enjoy performing, will perform at lunchtime in the gazebo.

Squares begin new year of dancing pand your social circle, say members. Come alone or in pairs.

Make new friends and take your dancing skills on the road, as there are clubs all across Canada and the U.S., they add. The local club is 26 years old and members travel to other clubs near and far.

In 2014 all the Ottawa area clubs will be hosting an international event, and local square dancers are looking forward to making new friends. So a new set of travel plans are being hatched. The square dance calls are always in English, be it in Singapore, France, Portugal or Quebec.

Challenge your mind. It is easy to learn the new moves.

Practice while you dance to your favourite music,” says a Mississippi Squares news release.

After a stressful day at work or on the golf course, come to a club session to relax, play, dance and learn a new call or two. In no time, new dancers are experts at following directions and in having a good time. A mistake is another reason to smile.

Improve your health. To dance is to walk. Modern square dancing is easy and it improves your stamina.

The use of large body muscles in a gentle manner is similar to walking burns calories and lubricates many joints. Respect for your aches

and pains should not stop you from having fun.

Help your community.

Mississippi Squares hold parties and raise money to help the local Food Bank and Interval House.

“We appreciate everyone’s help to be a part of the many communities where we call home,” says the club’s director of publicity and promotion Laurette Lafleur. “Modern square dancing is based on tradition to encourage a healthy and happy future.

Fun, friendship, fitness – we would love to dance with you.”

Doors Open 2012 in Carleton Place and Mississippi Mills; residents explore and enjoy local heritage TARA GESNER tgesner@perfrpint.ca

EMC Events – Discover and celebrate the rich history of Carleton Place and Mississippi Mills by way of Doors Open 2012, an experience happening in the neighbouring communities this Saturday, Sept. 8.

From 10 a.m. to 4 p.m., cultural sites, heritage buildings, industrial areas, places of worship, private homes and many other fascinating locations will be open for public viewing – free of admission.

This year’s Doors Open is a collaborative effort between Carleton Place and Mississippi Mills.

“By joining our efforts we will see more activity and promotion,” stated Carleton Place Coun. Rob Probert, a member of the Carleton Place Heritage Advisory Committee. “The area is full of fascinating information and history. Doors Open is one way to help build upon this interest.”

The event is part of Doors Open Ontario, a community-based celebration, which

in Carleton Place is located at the historic Moore House, located at 174 Bridge St. The information centre for Doors Open in Mississippi Mills is found inside the Almonte Old Town Hall (AOTH), situated at 14 Bridge St. oors Open locations in Mississippi Mills are as follows: AOTH (1885); Almonte Riverside Inn (1882); Almonte Riverwalk, along the banks of the Mississippi River (2010 official opening); Auld Kirk Cemetery in Almonte (1835); Cedar Hill Schoolhouse in Pakenham (1874); Holy Name of Mary Church in Almonte (1869); Mill of Kintail in Almonte (1830s); Brian J. Gallagher Generating Station in Almonte (2010); Mississippi Valley Textile Museum in Almonte (1867); North Lanark Museum in Appleton; Old Post Office in Almonte (1890); Pinehurst in Almonte (1898); St. Paul’s Anglican Church in Almonte (1863); St. Paul’s Rectory in Almonte (1878); St. Peter Celestine Church in Pakenham (1892); Thoburn Mill in Almonte; and Waste Water Treatment Plant in Almonte (2012).

builds pride in Ontario’s heritage for residents and visitors. Since the program was started in 2000, nearly four million visits have been made to participating heritage sites across the province.

Dedicated organizers Bernie DeFrancisco of Carleton Place and Charlotte Farmer of Almonte have been working extremely hard with their volunteers to make Doors Open 2012 a sensational success.

“Working with Charlotte Farmer from Almonte, and her volunteers has been rewarding,” said Probert. “Finding common interests helps each area develop and promote its’ own history.”

On the banks of the picturesque Mississippi River, Carleton Place (originally known as Morphy’s Falls) offers a healthy, happy mix of small town living and the convenience of the city. Famous residents include Captain Arthur Roy Brown, the Canadian World War I flying ace, and Leslie McFarlane who wrote many of the original Hardy Boys books under the pen name Franklin W. Dixon.

O’Brien Theatre’s sequel to feature upgrades in Arnprior Derek Dunn derek.dunn@metroland.com

EMC news – It’s not a pretty picture at the O’Brien Theatre.

The historic movie theatre in Arnprior’s downtown core – a supreme example of the old time movie houses, once a fixture in small towns across North America – narrowly missed shutting down recently.

But thanks to owner Kevin Marshall, who remains ambivalent about the intense financial decisions he had to make, the O’Brien will continue to reel in film lovers.

Except, that is, the reels and film technology that were the bones of the industry for the last century won’t be part of the theatre’s future. The 60 year-old-projectors spinning 35 mm film will hit the trash can; replaced by digital.

Marshall closed shop on Monday for nine days to begin a series of upgrades at the two-screen location that, in the end, will cost him some $120,000.

“I didn’t have any choice,” Marshall said, sitting in the empty main floor theatre

PHOTOS BY DEREK DUNN/METROLAND

O’Brien Theatre owner Kevin Marshall says goodbye to the old 35mm projector he’s used since taking over the Arnprior business some 13 years ago. He’s taking a financial risk, but says digital is the way of the future in his industry.

Tuesday afternoon. “I’d end up going bankrupt if I didn’t.”

He mortgaged the house, the theatre, got a government-

backed loan – at higher interest rates than banks offer – all in a bid to save a business that is something of a tourist at-

traction for the town. (Real estate agents promote the town to outside clients as having a historic theatre.)

Beginning with 20th Century Fox, the major distribution companies will drop use of 35 mm film and expect to save tens of millions of dollars per movie release.

“That does not trickle down to me,” Marshall said. “Within the next year or so I think you’ll find that all the major distributors will have stopped using 35 mm. You just won’t get the movies.”

Along with bringing in digital equipment, the theatre will enjoy an upgrade from 5.1 to 7.1 Adobe surround sound, a fresh coat of paint and other work Marshall has looked forward to since purchasing the building in 1999.

He looks forward to an automated system, which means he can afford to spend more time at the storefront and less setting up the movies. Still, the tradeoff is a risky one.

With the old projectors, most problems could be solved with a wrench and elbow grease.

The new computer system will require a technician from Ottawa.

And then there’s the issue of lifespan. Computers last about 10 years?

“That’s it. And I won’t be

doing this again 10 years from now.”

That’s when he fears the second wave of small town theatre closures will hit. Right now some locations, like Smiths Falls, closed because they weren’t able to convert to digital. Others in Carleton Place, Mattawa, Pembroke and elsewhere could find themselves facing difficulty in both the near and distant future.

It’s not unfolding like Marshall, who loves the movie side more than the business side, had hoped when he opened doors 13 years ago after an 11-month renovation.

“I was terrified no one would show up. I was terrified anyone would show up!”

Operating under the name O’Brien since at least 1920, the building may have been home to vaudeville shows as early as 1906. Marshall intends to pursue the history a little closer in the coming months.

With its distinctive colours, arches in the main lobby, the little ticket booth that accepts cash only, the O’Brien is a treat for anyone who is used to giant parking lots, automated ticket dispensers, and videogames blaring along many walls.

Marshall’s gotten a lot of media attention over what amounts to a decision with little tangible effect on the public. TV’s crews and multiple newspaper interviews, primarily from Ottawa, seem to hold a small obsession with Marshall’s financial difficulties. But the attention seems to fulfill something of a stereotype for the large outlets. A long-standing, independently owned and operated business in the heart of a valley town; a rural entrepreneur with a passion for his business up against the faceless suburban multiplexes; an era long past that is unearthed for city people who believed all the magic and charm of movie-going was gone.

Charm doesn’t always pay the bills, but Marshall’s more confident than not that he can pull off a Hollywood ending.

“I’m glad that we did it,” he said. “I still enjoy coming into this building.”

Film distributors like 20th Century Fox could save millions of dollars by switching from the film to digital. But for independent theatre owners it is proving costly.

A new way to fundraise Company pays schools to send in old phones Jessica Cunha jessica.cunha@metroland.com

EMC news - A recycling company is aiming to make fundraising easier for school communities this year.

CellCycle.ca is cellphone recycling company that pays non-proďŹ ts, individuals and companies money for sending in their old phones and wireless devices. The company has already helped a number of schools across the country raise money by collecting and recycling old phones. â&#x20AC;&#x153;There was one in London, Ont., just back in May, that collected 300 BlackBerrys,â&#x20AC;? said Pat Hebert, founder of CellCycle.ca. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We gave them $10,000.â&#x20AC;?

He said after reading the Metroland Special Report, Fundraising Fever, published in June, he wanted to let people know there is an alternative to the traditional fundraising events. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I was reading your article and I do realize how tough it is for non proďŹ ts to raise money right now.

There is deďŹ nitely donor fatigue going on,â&#x20AC;? said Hebert. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s lots of chocolate bars and cookies and all sorts of things that arenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t so good for us. There seems to be an absence of things that are totally free for a nonproďŹ t to do. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s really sad that parents are being saddled with this.â&#x20AC;?

CellCycle.ca, which is based in Barrie, Ont., works by buying phones through the mail.

CellCycle.ca is a cellphone recycling company that pays non-profits, individuals and companies money for sending in their old phones and wireless devices. â&#x20AC;&#x153;That phone sitting in the closet might still be worth something,â&#x20AC;? said Hebert, adding the company pays for the postage. â&#x20AC;&#x153;These are waste products really, but they have end of life value or they have reuse value.â&#x20AC;?

The company also sells used phones and wireless devices.

FUNDRAISER

Tamise academy French elementary school located in London, Ont. was looking to raise funds for its Food for Kids program, which helped about 15 families in the school community every week.

One of the teachers â&#x20AC;&#x153;would have backpacks ďŹ lled up with food every Friday with non perishables and send them home with students,â&#x20AC;? said Hebert.

The school contacted him about raising funds by recycling old phones.

WĆ&#x152;Ä&#x17E;Ć?Ä&#x17E;ĹśĆ&#x161;Ć?

The school collected 300 BlackBerrys that were in good condition, raising $10,000 for the food program. â&#x20AC;&#x153;That was an inner-city school,â&#x20AC;? said Hebert. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a very poor area of London.

Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s good for people to realize there are alternatives.â&#x20AC;?

Hebert said heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s also helped schools in Nova Scotia, Alberta, British Columbia, Manitoba and Saskatchewan. One school in Calgary raised $6,000 by sending in old phones. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s weird how you get known in other parts of the country before you get known at home,â&#x20AC;? said Hebert, who started CellCycle.ca in 2009 after being laid off from an electronic recycling company. He was in charge of analyzing the waste streams and realized that â&#x20AC;&#x153;Cellphones were one of those things that had a lot of residual value at the end of life.â&#x20AC;?

The company generally collects around 10,000 phones a year, which they test to see how well it works and wipe all the data. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m hoping that we continue to grow this to the point that weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re helping lots of people,â&#x20AC;? said Hebert. â&#x20AC;&#x153;This is good for the environment, this is good for the schools or non-proďŹ tsâ&#x20AC;Śitâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s good for students themselves to see that just because theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re done with it the item itself isnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t worthless. I just hope it continues and that weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re able to help a lot of people with it.â&#x20AC;?

OPP warn of phoney bank inspectors EMC news – The Ontario Provincial Police (OPP) is receiving many reports of financial scams targeting seniors and other vulnerable people across the province.

In this scam, individuals claiming to be investigators from one of Canada’s chartered banks convince victims to withdraw funds for use as evidence to assist with a bogus theft investigation involving bank personnel.

After the money is withdrawn and handed to the phoney bank inspector, the victim is told to go home and wait for a call confirming the money has been re-deposited in their account.

Unfortunately, that call never comes. In several recent cases, seniors have complied and were subsequently defrauded of thousands of dollars.

“This type of fraud, preying on seniors and vulnerable persons, is one

more way in the already long history of fraud-related crimes.

Increasing awareness of fraud is the first step toward decreasing its devastating impact,” said Deputy Commissioner Scott TOD, OPP Investigations and Organized Crime.

“If you are suspicious about a caller or the information being requested, protect yourself…hang up the phone! And then report the crime,” added Det. Insp. Paul Beesley, OPP

Anti-Rackets Branch Guard against becoming a victim BEFORE providing money or credit card information.

Check with another family member or trusted friend to verify the information.

Remember, neither your financial institution nor a police investigator will ever ask you to withdraw money from your account or assist with an undercover investigation.

It is also vitally important that the incident be reported if it does occur, to allow police to investigate and charge the perpetrators.

If you suspect you or someone you know has been a victim of fraud, contact your local police service, the Canadian Anti-Fraud Centre at 1888-495-8501.

Or Crime Stoppers at 1-800-2228477 (TIPS) and report the crime.

Ottawa OPP issue 222 speeding tickets B&E charges laid in EMC news – The OPP’s Ottawa Detachment issued 222 speeding tickets on the Labour Day long weekend.

The detachment, which provides enforcement on Highway 417 through West Carleton., also issued four racing, 25 seatbelts, 28 distracted driving, 10 moving violations and 59 other Highway Traffic Act tickets.

The OPP also charged three drivers

with impaired driving, handed out two warnings and laid two Liquor Licence Act and two drug charges.

“It’s everyone’s responsibility in keeping our highways, trails and waterways safe,” said the police in a news release.

Thr OPP report that Ontario two people were killed in separate motor vehicle collisions and two people died in

separate marine incidents on the Labour Day weekend.

OPP officers were highly visible enforcing the law on highways, trails and waterways over the weekend, laying 15,749 driving-related charges. A total of 10,860 charges were laid for speeding, 339 for distracted driving, 1,186 for seat belt violations and 196 were alcohol-related charges.

Tastes buds teased, tempted at Melon Fest and Pepper Pow WOW! Kate Glynn EMC lifestyle - Temperatures at the Acorn Creek Garden Farm ranged from cool to scorching Labour Day, as the farm held its 14th Annual MelonFest and Pepper Pow. WOW! The unique combination of melons and peppers was celebrated this past weekend with taste testing and competitions.

Cindy and Andy Terauds own the 100 acre farm near Carp, where the popular event takes place.

The idea for the festival sprang from a televised CBC segment featuring the farm where the couple have operated since 1978, and the melons they grow. The five minute sequence aired 15 years ago on the news and then again on Ontario Today.

“When we started getting calls from all over Canada saying they would be in Ottawa, could they stop in and pick-up a melon, I thought, there is more interest in melons than I thought,” he said.

The farm grows 21 types140 varieties of melon. Many,

KATE GLYNN

Top Chef Canada runner-up Jonny Korechi prepares Ceviche of Halibut using four types of melons with a hint of sorrel. The chef of Sidedoor Temporary Kitchen was one of several local culinary creators demonstrating the use of melons and peppers in cuisine. like the Canary, Butterscotch, Oriental and Tropical were available for tasting at a table set up on site.

“You can’t compare fully ripe melons, picked at their

prime, to those you see in the stores.

Each one is different in texture and taste. You have to try them to appreciate the differences,” Terauds stated.

Many of the varieties of melon at Acorn Creek are not available at grocery stores because the rinds are thin and would be disturbed during shipping.

Terauds said the event allows the public an opportunity to sample new varieties.

“And the wonderful hot sunny weather this season means sweeter and tastier melons this year,” he added.

For the more adventurous appetite, a series of peppers offered in graduating levels of heat were on offer.

“We grow 146 varieties of peppers from the sweet to the scorching,” Terauds pointed out.

This year marked the introduction of a chile-head pepper eating contest to the popular seed spitting and watermelon eating contests offered to youth 13 and under.

Brad Pye was one of three contestants brave enough to step forward for the first ever competition, that had organizers altering the contest rules beforehand to encourage participants.

Pye was not be outdone by his nine-year-old son Will, who tried the Trinidad Scorpion Moruga at the pepper tasting table, and signed up first.

The Trinidad pepper that measures 1.8 million on the

Scoville Heat Units (SHU) has earned the nickname, The Beast. It is said that a small sized pepper can heat up seven pots of stew before ever having its skin cut open and is listed in the Guinness Book of Records as the world’s hottest pepper.

Pye was able to go the distance and finished alongside Thomas Leboeuf after completing all five rounds of the competition.

Pye and his family have attended the free annual event for most of the past eight years.

“We think oh we’ll go for an hour or so and then stay most of the day. There is so much to do and the kids love it. It is a great event and it’s free,” Pye said.

Approximately 700 visitors attended the event.

The event featured cooking demonstrations by local chefs, wagon rides through the vegetable fields, guided tours of the melon and pepper patches, competitions and prizes. Local artisans and vendors were on hand with food, baking, preserved meats, hot sauces, preserves and crafts.

Residents â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;engaged and enragedâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; over Teron proposal Jessica Cunha jessica.cunha@metroland.com

DEVELOPMENT

Developer Bottriell requested the meeting to present the plans that were submitted to the city.

He owns about 1.48 hectares of land at 1131 Teron Rd., where his house sits. The triangle of land also houses a hydro corridor and backs onto March Road and the Bethune condominiums.

â&#x20AC;&#x153;It is on the edge of the community,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re not within the garden city concept that Mr. (Bill) Teron created.â&#x20AC;?

He said that when compared to other highrises in the community, the percentage of lot coverage is about the same. The Varley apartments have about seven per cent lot coverage, the Atriums cover about 15 per cent, and the development on Teron would cover around 10 per cent. â&#x20AC;&#x153;You canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t compare to the Varley apartments,â&#x20AC;? said Dave Brown. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The Atriums is also on a much larger piece of land.â&#x20AC;?

Only about 0.2 to 0.3 hectares of the site is developable at 1131 Teron Rd. because of the hydro easement, said Bottriell, adding he thought about using the site for other purposes â&#x20AC;&#x201C; such as additional townhomes, office or commercial space, but decided condominiums are best for the property. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve been approached by everyone of these but Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve said â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Nah, I donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t think thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s good for the property,â&#x20AC;&#x2122;â&#x20AC;? said Bottriell. â&#x20AC;&#x153;One of the reasons why Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve pushed for the condo aspect is for seniors.â&#x20AC;?

He told the audience his mother is looking for low-maintenance living and with an aging demographic in the area, a highrise would bet-

ter suit the needs of the population. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The hope is that people from here will live there.â&#x20AC;?

Many in the audience didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t agree that a highrise is the right choice. â&#x20AC;&#x153;This doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t fit, it doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t enhance the community at all,â&#x20AC;? said Gail White, a resident of Bethune. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The only thing that would fit would be townhomes.â&#x20AC;?

Kanata North Coun. Marianne Wilkinson said she would be submitting her comments after the meeting. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m going to stress the whole fact of following the Official Plan, of being compatible,â&#x20AC;? she said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Townhouses fit ... It has to be the right development in the right place.â&#x20AC;?

She added that residentsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; concerns with the setback of the building are â&#x20AC;&#x153;legitimate concerns.â&#x20AC;?

The setback of the building is being touted as 10 metres â&#x20AC;&#x201C; but thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s from the building to the curb. From the building to the property line is only three metres. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Please donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t try to pull the wool over our eyes. Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re not stupid,â&#x20AC;? said resident Beata Myhill. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We need transparency and we need honesty.â&#x20AC;?

EMC news - A meeting on a proposed highrise development in Beaverbrook drew a large crowd on Monday, Aug. 27.

Around 300 people turned out for the endof-summer meeting to discuss a two-tiered, 10- and 15-storey apartment building, coupled with six three-storey townhomes, that has been proposed for development at 1131 Teron Rd. by developer Phil Bottriell. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Residents from all of Beaverbrook ... came out for another meeting the last week in August. Not just six people, but nearly 300 people â&#x20AC;&#x201C; engaged and enraged,â&#x20AC;? said Eileen Howell, who lives on Reaney Court with her husband Andrew Stirling. The two have been collecting funds from the community to help pay for legal consultation regarding the rezoning application, as well as for another nine-storey building proposed for 2 The Parkway. â&#x20AC;&#x153;People are turning out in droves because theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re fed up with these types of proposals,â&#x20AC;? said Gary Sealey, president of the Kanata Beaverbrook Community Associaiton (KBCA). â&#x20AC;&#x153;The people are uniting ... People think this is bad development.â&#x20AC;?

The consensus of many in the audience was that the proposed development is too high and doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t fit within the garden community, which

is comprised of mostly lowrise, single family homes and townhouses. â&#x20AC;&#x153;This is just not a good piece of land for whatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s being proposed,â&#x20AC;? said resident Jim Birtch. â&#x20AC;&#x153;This development is trying to shoehorn a very large development into a small piece of land.â&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x153;Scale it down,â&#x20AC;? said Langley Rock, a resident of Beaverbrook.

With 173 units proposed for the highrise building as well as six townhomes, Rock said that instead of trying to blend in with the surroundings, the developer is trying to make as much money as possible. â&#x20AC;&#x153;To be honest, it sounds like a cash grab,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re looking for something that fits, we want something that fits too.â&#x20AC;?

The developer did say that â&#x20AC;&#x153;if it comes down to it, the number of stories is up for discussion,â&#x20AC;? adding, â&#x20AC;&#x153;Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re not there yet.â&#x20AC;?

NDP invite public to pub meeting EMC news - On Monday, Sept. 17 as the fall session of parliament opens, the Carleton - Mississippi Mills NDP riding association will be hosting an evening with four young MPs to discuss fresh perspectives on Canadian politics.

Offering first-hand accounts of how democratic institutions are operating, the roles and challenges faced by MPs, and insights on pressing contemporary issues, the evening promises to bring politics to life through an informative and engaging conversation.

Speakers for the event include Federal NDP Leadership Candidate and Critic for the Status of Women, Niki Ashton (MP Churchill); Federal Critic for Copyright and Digital Issues, Charmaine Borg (MP Terrebonne â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Blainville); Federal Critic for Sports and Associate Critic for Post-Secondary Education, Matthew DubĂŠ (Chambly-Borduas); and Federal Associate Critic on Foreign Affairs, Ă&#x2C6;ve PĂŠclet (La Pointe-de-lâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;Ă&#x17D;le).

Many of the MPs attending the Monday night event know first-hand what it takes to make that change, having recently won over voters in similar suburban ridings previously considered safe seats for other parties around Montreal. Now they are bringing the youthful combination of intelligence, passion, conscience and engagement which led the NDP to official opposition to the people of Carleton - Mississippi Mills. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re really excited to be able to provide an opportunity for local citizens to talk first

hand with these MPs about federal politics and issues, especially those who havenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t traditionally had much access to our political institutions, such a students and youthâ&#x20AC;? said Morgan Goddard, President of the local NDP Riding Association. â&#x20AC;&#x153;For us itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not just about offering a different platform, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s about building a different approach to politics and we are thrilled to be able to showcase some of the MPs whose passion and engagement is helping Canadians to rethink how politics is done.â&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x153;Under majority rule it is easy to forget the important role that the official opposition plays in keeping government accountable to the people and our democracy on course,â&#x20AC;? said John Hansen, riding association federal vice president â&#x20AC;&#x153;At the riding level there are even fewer opportunities for dissenting opinions to be heard. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We want to change that by finding ways to represent the thousands of voters here in Carleton Mississippi Mills whose opinions are not being well represented. If the current government continues to ignore Canadians they will only ensure that the opposition critics of today will become the cabinet ministers of tomorrow.â&#x20AC;?

The event is at Dâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;arcy McGeeâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s, 655 Terry Fox Dr. in Kanata at 7 p.m. Tickets are $20 (75 per cent tax deductable) in advance, or $5 for youth and unwaged.

ROSCOE #4270 Roscoe was found wandering down a country road, he was dehydrated and starving. He has been at the shelter since October 2011 and would love to ďŹ nd a great new home. Roscoe is a very handsome, 6 year old, neutered and declawed boy. He can be affectionate and enjoy attention when he is in the mood. He is curious and likes to explore. Roscoe would be best suited in an adult only home where he will be the only pet. His longer hair will require some grooming. The shelter would be willing to reduce Roscoeâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s adoption fee for the right home. Please consider adopting this handsome guy, heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s tired of living in a cage.
