Life-changing gift from GM for Carp farmer

BY TARA GESNER

tgesner@metroland.com

Three years after losing both arms in a horrific farming accident, a Carp dairy farmer has received a life-changing gift.

Ken Paul, 71, was at Bean Chevrolet Buick GMC Ltd. in Carleton Place on Dec. 21 to pick up his new truck – a specially equipped 2017 Chevrolet Colorado. His son, Barry Paul, accompanied him.

“The truck has a special calibration to increase the power steering boost at low speeds,” Donnelly Baxter said.

He is General Motors’ (GM) assistant brand manager – Chevrolet trucks.

The work performed on Ken’s truck was a gift from GM. Every couple of years, for the last three decades, Ken has bought a new GM vehicle, Baxter explained, and “this was a great way to thank a lifetime, loyal customer.”

“His family is all GM too,” dealer Keith Bean added.

Bean Chevrolet Buick GMC Ltd. reached out to GM this past March.

“When we heard Ken’s story we thought he was very deserving,” Baxter stated. “It was a way for us to thank him for his continued support.”

While attempting to connect a forage wagon power take-off shaft to his tractor on Dec. 18, 2014, a section of Ken’s clothing became caught, pulling his arms into the machinery.

Ken Paul of Carp sits in his new truck at Bean Chevrolet Buick GMC Ltd. in Carleton Place on Dec. 21. It is a specially equipped 2017 Chevrolet Colorado truck which has a special calibration, a gift from General Motors, to increase the power steering boost at low speeds.

“I can tell you it happened when we were feeding our group of heifers,” he said.

One of Ken’s arms was severed at the shoulder, with the other detached below the elbow.

Ken and Barry run Appaulo Farms on William Mooney Road in West Carleton, raising primarily pure-bred Holsteins. It has been in the family for five generations.

Chuck Novak, GM’s district manager – Chevrolet trucks, joined Baxter

for the truck pickup. Other VIPs in attendance included Carleton Place Deputy Mayor Jerry Flynn and dealership staff.

Owing to the truck’s special calibration, “it makes it easier for her to corner, and it is much easier to park her,” Ken noted.

Bean admitted, “I thought it would be really easy for the computer to be changed, but it was not.”

“Engineers in Detroit, Milford and Korea worked on this,” he continued,

and it had to go through a whole bunch of GM validation testing.”

“Thank you very much!” Ken exclaimed. “I really appreciate the effort these guys have put forth, giving me the ability to drive this truck ... providing me more freedom.”

Baxter noted, “For now, this is more of a one-off situation ... a lot of effort and resources were involved.”

Ken was also gifted with a Chevrolet jacket and hat, and for his truck a SiriusXM package and complimen-

tary OnStar navigation for five years.

“We have a lot to give,” Baxter said with a smile.

The farm accident in 2014 was not the first for Ken. He lost his foot decades ago.

However, someone who never gives up, after receiving a prosthetic he resumed working.

With regard to his new truck, Ken, a past president of the Carp Fair, told everyone on Thursday he could “not wait to drive her home.”

2017 defined by historic Ottawa River flood

BY JAKE DAVIES

jake.davies@metroland.com

An act of nature not seen before in West Carleton defined 2017 for all of those who live in Ward 5.

In early April, as the winter snow started melting and intense, prolonged rain fell from the skies, the Ottawa River started rising. It didn’t stop rising until 513 dwellings between Vydon Acres and Dunrobin were damaged by a historic flood featuring record high levels, swamping large portions of West Carleton. Of those more than 500, about 380 needed renovations.

Water levels peaked at the Britannia monitoring station at 60.44 metres – a full metre above the normal peak, a half metre over the 1.5 m floodway line and 20 centimetres above the previous record set in 1979 according to ottawariver.ca.

Eyewitnesses reported the surges on the narrow sections of the river at Fitzroy Harbour and MacLaren’s Landing were

2 West Carleton Review - Thursday, January 4, 2018

Bay Community Association (CBBCA) secretary Len Russell was at ground zero from Day 1, doing whatever he could to help his community battle the flood and clean up the mess. As of Jan. 4, he’s still doing that.

“From a West Carleton perspective and the official data, it was our worst flood in history,” Russell said. “Many of the homes that were damaged were high and so far from the river, their owners would have said you were crazy to think they could get wet.”

During the peak flooding, Russell says, conservatively, more than 2,000 people volunteered to help and provided more than 25,000 hours of help. On the first Saturday during the flood, volunteers filled, tied, loaded, delivered and assembled sandbags into walls at a rate of 60 per minute.

“I still can’t calculate how many people that takes,” Russell said. “Not surprisingly, operations ran out of sand and bags three times that day.”

Russell said there were at

least 100 other volunteers preparing and delivering food, calling out for equipment and picking up supplies.

“What impressed me most, was the planning they did,” Russell said. “That day there were more than 600 registered volunteers in Constance Bay – probably just a small fraction of the real number. There were sand piles at four or five locations in West Carleton, but by Saturday most of the bagging was being done in Constance Bay. Big trucks with thousands of filled bags, volunteers, food and other supplies were being shipped from the Bay to Dunrobin and Fitzroy Harbour.”

Despite the good will of 1,000s of volunteers, it was a very stressful time.

“Regardless of all of the good things that happened, miracles really, many people impacted by the flood of 2017 feared losing everything, they suffered loss and trauma and the emotional toll was significant,” Russell said.

“The sense of isolation people felt and the uncertainty some still live with is devastating. Despite their trauma, the first reflection of very many survivors is their heartfelt gratitude for the support they received from our community. It is my hope that every person who participated in our rescue knows the impact they had, knows the outcome was the sum of thousands of smaller parts, and that they will always be part of our community.”

Russell gives credit to Constance Bay resident Janet Lavern who was standing out in the rain three days before the media shined its spotlight on the issue, organizing and coordinating an emergency response.

“She saw a problem and decided to fix it,” Russell said. “She was joined

by Heather Lucente who started taking calls, dis-

patching and starting the Facebook flood page. It is conceivable, even likely, things would have gone differently if the two ladies hadn’t been in the right place. They put everything else aside and for the next month, 18 hours a day, created and almost continuously re-invented Flood Relief. The ‘office’ grew exponentially and by the time we officially had an emergency they had acquired almost everything a community needs to fight a flood. In parallel the West Carleton Legion ramped up to become a 24-hour relief station where volunteers and victims could find hot food and warm smiles.”

To this very day, Russell and the Constance Bay community continues to help those worst hit by the flood. The CBBCA is currently focusing on fundraising and the re-building of two homes lost to the flood in Constance Bay.

AREA POLITICIANS LOOK BACK Every year is a big year if you make your bacon in politics. Coun. Eli ElChantiry, MPP Jack MacLaren and MP Karen McCrimmon all spoke with the West Carleton Review to reflect on 2017.

MacLaren’s home in MacLaren’s Landing was one of the more than 500 West Carleton homes that had the Ottawa River move in last spring. Despite the damage MacLaren was more interested in focusing in his fast-flowing political career.

“2017 has been a year of change, big change, good change,” said MacLaren who recently joined the fledging Trillium Party.

This is a sad day for me, and a sad day for our communities. Ordinarily I would like to fill this space with an informative article, or well wishes for the new year. Unfortunately this will be my final column in the Metroland papers as they are closing.

Losing local papers is a great loss to any community, for me personally I have through all of my life, been able to enjoy the West Carleton Review in one form or another. But this is the final edition of that paper and the other community papers I have had the great pleasure of working with over these last six years as the MPP for Carleton - Mississippi Mills.

I want to thank all of the people who have made these papers possible over the decades and all those who currently do. In this final column I want to extend a special thanks to Gisele, who has been tremendously helpful to me and a pleasure to work with. I want to wish her and all the people at Metroland the best of luck in the future. I am confident that a team like yours will prosper whatever you may do.

2017: Canada 150 a huge success But city related stories weren’t all soggy in 2017.

El-Chantiry says the city spent $10 million in roadwork in West Carleton.

“We did finish Kinburn, aside for some landscaping,” he said. “It’s been a successful year for us.”

Road work is a priority for West Carleton residents, and the first 2018 City of Ottawa budget consultations proved that.

It was held in Kinburn last fall and attendees spoke of road work as a priority for the rural ward.

“We led the charge for roadwork in the city,” El-Chantiry said. “We set the narrative and that was accepted by the mayor,” When it was announced during the December council meeting there was a budget surplus of $10 million, 2/3 of it was dedicated to roads by council.

All Ottawa schools need defibrillators

I

n the year after Damien Martin’s son, Griffin, died from cardiac arrest at his Orléans school, the father has been leading the charge to have elementary and high schools across Ottawa equipped with devices that can deliver life-saving shocks that can restart a heart.

The grieving family may never know if an AED, or automated external defibrillator, would have made a difference. Orléans Wood Elementary School didn’t have one at the time. Progress has been made, and a fundraising campaign is underway to speed up that process. The worry is that change is not happening fast enough.

Many children have complex medical conditions. In Griffin’s case, he did not have any known underlying medical issues. There are also education, administration and other support staff at schools to consider.

Schools also regularly serve as community hubs for after-hours programming, including sporting events, voting during elections, community and municipal meetings, Girl Guide and Scout gatherings, craft fairs, fundraisers, church services and workshops.

It’s no wonder that Martin is calling for laws in Ontario and across Canada to require AEDs in schools.

Fire extinguishers are required. Why not life-saving defibrillators?

Linda Wyman, president of the Greely and District branch of the Royal Canadian Legion, celebrated on Feb. 14, 2017 when her rural south Ottawa branch received its first defibrillator after a four-year campaign.

At that time, eight of the 14 Legion branches in

Ottawa did not have the portable devices, including in Orléans, Heron Park, Centretown, Westboro, Barrhaven, north Kanata and Constance Bay. In the case of the Greely branch, the closest AED was at the Greely Community Centre more than a kilometre away.

The City of Ottawa not only equipped the remaining Legion facilities with the $1,600 machines, but also provided free CPR and AED training for Legion and community members.

AEDs can buy paramedics precious time, especially in rural locations. If an AED shock can be delivered within the first four to six minutes after cardiac arrest, survival rates skyrocket, according to Anthony Di Monte, general manager of the city’s emergency and protective services department and former chief of the Ottawa Paramedic Service.

Ottawa had gone from falling behind in cardiac-arrest survival rates to becoming one of the top five in North America thanks to a program launched in 2001 that saw the eventual installation of more than 1,000 defibrillators in public spaces and more than 40,000 residents, plus city staff, trained in CPR and the use of AEDs. And in the event of cardiac arrest, 911 communications staff can tell a caller where an AED is in a building and guide them in applying a defibrillator and CPR. There is no question that program has given people a fighting chance, even saved their lives.

Let’s give that same chance to our children, their educators and other residents who use our city’s schools.

Time is of the essence.

Building backyard skating rink mostly brings joy

F

or the third straight year I’m attempting to build a rink in my backyard. The weather is perfect. It should be done by now, except I’m not as committed as I once was.

The kids have an expectation the rink will go from sloping lot to level skate surface in no time. When they see the actual tedious process, however, they become solid armchair critics. “Mom,” they call out between rounds of Forza on the Xbox on Boxing Day. “The rink is too bumpy.

It’s never going to work!”

Thanks, kids. My eyelashes are frozen to my lids and I just ripped a piece of skin off my hand when I touched a once damp, now-frozen doorknob. But I appreciate the help and advice.

Building a rink triggers every emo-

a pile of massive cotton balls. I feel anger when the kids say, “I’d love to help, mom, but the bucket of water is too heavy for me.” Wimps!

The truth is the kids could help.

But this is my rink, my baby, to be Capital Muse grown and nurtured from nothing into something unique and special.

foot five minutes later. (It’s a highly satisfying kick). Sometimes, the hose floats to the top when I’m not looking and then next thing I know it’s spraying full tilt at my son’s bedroom window. Other times, I go to grab it with my leather gloves, not realizing they’re already at that frozen-open state and I can’t get a grip, so I spray water in my face. And because one can never “catch” a hose in a timely fashion, I’ve frequently soaked myself from head-to-foot and then flash frozen before I even have time to say the word hose.

Although it sounds crazy, rink building mostly brings me joy. Yes, it’s hard work. Yes, I have to face the elements.

Songs of Gord Downie provide inspiration at concert

BY JOHN CURRY john.curry@metroland.com

In many ways, 2017 was the year of the Tragically Hip, with the Kingston-based Canadian rock band in the spotlight due to the illness and death of lead singer Gord Downie.

CBC Television even broadcast the last show of the group’s final tour with Downie on Aug. 20. Downie died on Oct. 17.

The year 2017 also saw all five band members receive the Order of Canada.

This spotlight on the Tragically Hip in 2017 was used at St. Michael Catholic School in Fitzroy Harbour, as the songs of Gord Downie were used as

inspiration in the telling of the nativity story at the school’s annual Christmas concert on Wednesday, Dec. 20.

Songs such as Courage, Wheat Kings and Long Time Running, among others, were sung with new words associated with the nativity story in the concert, which through narrative, drama and song told the Christmas story of the birth of the baby Jesus in a stable in Bethlehem.

Indeed, the concert was titled A Very Hip Christmas, as a nod to the music of the Tragically Hip and Gord Downie, as well as to the ongoing appeal of this nativity story to today’s youth.

St. Michael Catholic School principal Dwight Delahunt welcomed parents, grandparents, siblings and others

to the evening concert in the packed school gymnasium, pointing out that the students would be presenting the story of the miracle of Christmas. He noted that the performance will help the students find a place in their hearts for this story.

Principal Delahunt also praised the school’s staff for their effort in working with the students in preparing for the concert.

The concert began with the recitation of a few facts about Canada, such as it is the birthplace of poutine and insulin. Then, it was on with the telling of the nativity story through group songs and costumed dramatic presentations. There were angels, shepherds and kings, all part of the story, along with Mary and Joseph and the baby Jesus.

The grand finale saw all of the concert performers assemble together, filling the area in front of the stage, as they sang Long Time Running.

A silent auction was held in conjunction with the concert, with an array of gift baskets set on tables lining the hallway leading to the gymnasium. A most popular item

Cheesy scalloped rutabaga If you love scalloped potatoes, this recipe is sure to be a hit. The earthy sweetness of rutabaga paired with cheese, fresh herbs and caraway seeds makes for a delicious and simple side dish.

Preparation time: 20 minutes Cooking time: 10 minutes Baking time: 1 hour Serves 12 INGREDIENTS

1 tsp (5 ml) caraway seeds 3 tbsp (45 ml) butter 1 tbsp (15 ml) minced fresh thyme leaves 3 tbsp (45 ml) all-purpose flour 1/2 tsp (2 ml) salt 1/4 tsp (1 ml) pepper 1-1/2 cup (375 ml) milk 1-1/2 cup (375 ml) shredded aged cheddar cheese 1 Ontario onion, thinly sliced 1 Ontario rutabaga, peeled and thinly sliced (about 5 cups/1.25 L)

Arrange half of the onion evenly on the bottom of greased eight-inch (two-litre) square casserole dish. Top with half of the rutabaga and half of the sauce. Repeat layers and sprinkle with remaining cheese.

Bake uncovered in 350 F (180 C) until rutabaga is tender, about one hour. Let stand 10 minutes before cutting to serve.

Hear about edible gardening at Garden Club meeting

BY JOHN CURRY

john.curry@metroland.com

It is possible to have an edible oasis on your property.

You will be able to find out all about this at the January meeting of the West Carleton Garden Club in Carp, as the topic of the meeting will be Creating an Edible Design.

Guest speaker at this Jan. 9 meeting will be Telsing Andrews of Aster Lane Edibles in Kinburn.

Aster Lane Edibles specializes in ornamental edibles and other such plants. It is a small edible plant nursery and seed company committed to increasing the knowledge of small scape crop cultivation, plant breeding and propagation by seed and edible landscape design.

Aster Lane Edibles is run by Ms. Andrews, who offers such services as workshops and tours, edible plant experiences, edible landscape design, seed and plant sales and crop development.

After years of doing edible landscape, Ms. Andrews has learned some surprising things. The first is that most people have something edible growing already. The second is that the most limited resource for most people is time.

The edible elements in your green space may be a couple of neglected apple trees or a handful of useful weeds. Or you may be growing ornaments that have edible purposes.

There are as many possible edible

landscapes as there are gardens. An edible landscape can be a net series of raised beds, a forest garden, annuals grown in a pleasing manner or row crops popping out of the front yard.

Edibles can grow in a rock garden, a bog, the shade, or heavy or light soil.

When Ms. Andrews does a consultation, she does both an interview and a trip around the space being considered for an edible landscape.

One limit to what a person can do in their space with regard to an edible landscape is resources available — not only money, but more importantly time. It is important to realistically estimate the amount of time that you can commit to outdoor work, including harvesting and processing food.

Every garden requires work.

If a family has a full schedule, then a garden is bound to get minimal care.

Transforming an outdoor space into a dynamic vegetable patch or a forest garden will increase the workload.

What sort of landscape you want will depend a great deal on what appeals to you. If you like plants in an orderly fashion and not looking totally wild, then you have to take that into consideration in your planning.

You should always remember that your outdoor space should bring you joy.

Here are some things to think about: Do you prefer geometrical or natural settings? Do you like bright colours or subdued hues? Do you like big and bold plants, long flowing grasses, tidy mounts, or all of them?

What senses do you want your garden to evoke, such as sight, sound, touch, taste and smell? Is your garden just for yourself or for your family, your neighbourhood, birds and bees or wildlife? Do you want privacy? Do you want your garden to be more sustainable?

If you want an edible garden, you must also consider what vegetables you use the most, what flavours you enjoy, what sort of foods you feel you need to grow and whether there are any environmental hazards in your area.

Ms. Andrews, when she does a consultation, also walks around a yard to identify, measure and map the area.

She identifies any semi-permanent structures that will not be removed.

There are also elements that flow around these semi-permanent structures.

It is often easier to enhance existing paths and places than to remove or replace them.

It helps to have a map of your yard with as much detail on it as possible.

You should write out the elements that you would like to have in your garden. This might include a frog pond, a sunny perennial garden, raised beds, fruit trees or a herb garden. You also have to determine if you area is too shady, too wet or too dry to accommodate what you want.

For tips on developing certain gardens, you should check out your library of books. Remember that contrast, comparison and highlight are

all important, as they pertain to plant shape, colour and leaf size.

Plants usually look better in groups.

On her farm at Aster Lane Edibles, Ms. Andrews has a demonstration garden, a seed house and a small nursery. Her farm demonstrates various ways of food growing. She grows a wide variety of crops and works on seed development.

She has been on her Kinburn-area farm since 2010. Her seed house specializes in hard-to-find edibles, but

also in crop development. She has several demonstration gardens, including a food forest and a small seasonal plant nursery.

The January meeting of the West Carleton Garden Club with Telsing Andrews of Aster Lane Edibles as the guest speaker on the topic of Creating an Edible Design will take place on Tuesday, Jan. 9 at 7:30 p.m. at the Carp Memorial Hall, at the corner of Carp Road and Donald B. Munro Drive.

Beagle Sadie Mae is recovering SPECIAL TO THE REVIEW

One of the happy stories from the Ottawa Humane Society in 2017 involved an eightyear-old beagle that was found near Carp, suffering from six gunshot pellets embedded in her head late in the year.

This beagle, named Sadie Mae, ended up undergoing multiple surgeries and receiving ongoing care for her other medical issues.

However, she is now doing amazingly well and, once fully healed, will be relocated to a new and loving home.

Sadie Mae is just one example of the many animals whose lives have been changed and improved thanks to the Ottawa Humane Society.

The society is a nonprofit, community based organization with a volunteer board of directors. It was formed as the Women’s Humane Society of Ottawa in January of 1888. It worked to enforce new animal

protection laws and focused on bettering the lives of neglected children by lobbying for legislation to provide foster homes.

In 1896, the group evolved into the Ottawa Humane Society with a new Children’s Aid Society assisting with helping needy children in the community.

In 1979, the Ottawa Humane Society was renamed the Humane Society of OttawaCarleton. The organization resumed its name Ottawa Humane Society in 2001 when the new city of Ottawa was formed.

Today the society’s mandate covers a broad spectrum of animal-welfare concerns. Its stated priorities include prevention and investigation of cruelty to animals, enforcement of laws for the protection of animals, public education and pet population control.

In 1933, the organization began providing stray animal shelter services to the city of

Ottawa.

The society today is considered an “open admission” animal shelter which means that it does not restrict the types of animals which are accepted.

It accepts animals regardless of their age, temperament or space limitations within the shelter.

Submitted

Sadie Mae, an eight year old beagle who arrived at the Ottawa Humane Society with six gunshot pellets embedded in her head, is now doing well thanks to multiple surgeries and ongoing care at the Humane Society.

horoscopes ARIES – Mar 21/Apr 20 It is time to take a relationship to a new level, Aries. You are confident you know just the way to accomplish this. Enjoy the excitement that comes with this new beginning.

TAURUS – Apr 21/May 21 Taurus, many things are on your plate, but you don’t feel overwhelmed at all. In fact, you’re ready to lend a helping hand to anyone who needs one.

HERE’S HOW IT WORKS: Sudoku puzzles are formatted as a 9x9 grid, broken down into nine 3x3 boxes. To solve a sudoku, the numbers 1 through 9 must fill each row, column and box. Each number can appear only once in each row, column and box. You can figure out the order in which the numbers will appear by using the numeric clues already provided in the boxes. The more numbers you name, the easier it gets to solve the puzzle!

GEMINI – May 22/Jun 21 Recreation is the name of the game this week, Gemini. Coming off of a busy period, you are anxious to put your feet up for a few days. Book that vacation right now.

CANCER – Jun 22/Jul 22 Use your intuition in regard to others’ feelings this week, Cancer.

Give someone who needs it a little leeway, and your thoughtfulness will be appreciated.
