To best advocate for their residents, community resource centres need to help facilitate communication and share information to residents, Jean Johnston-McKitterick, one of the candidates for Osgoode Ward, said. There are 90,000 residents in rural Ottawa and 60 community associations. “It’s about the size of Kingston,� McKercher said, adding the combined voices may help add numbers to any given issue. One example brought up was the city’s policies on severance, which prevents a lot of rural residents from splitting and building on their land. Another issue was the lack of places for older rural residents to go if they want to downsize. Emma Wallace, who attended Osgoode Township High School, said a lot of her friends are finding it difficult to maintain their ties with the community because their parents have to move into the urban area when they get older. “Is there any way the resource centres can help us look at development within

our own community?â€? one resident asked, suggesting residents might be able to offer unique insight on what sort of housing or other development is needed. Luc Ouellette, the executive director for the OrlĂŠansCumberland Community Association, said the resource centres would be working to ask local candidates up for election about their stance on rural affairs. “We have two elections coming up,â€? he said. “We should make them count.â€? But the bottom line is residents need to know what’s happening in their community, Const. Yolande Jacques said. Jacques works out of the Greely Community Police centre and said local high school kids could gain volunteer hours by delivering flyers from community associations. “It would be a good way to give the kids something to do,â€? she said. During the forum, residents broke up into group to answer questions about how to better utilize community associations and other resources to fill gaps in services for the rural areas. The forum was the third in a series of meetings where the community resource centres have asked for input on their rural strategy.

McKercher said she started working with the Constance Bay Community Association on access to fresh produce. “Because they are in the rural area one would assume that access would be readily available,� she said. “But that wasn’t the case. A lot of people were using the food bank and there isn’t a local grocery store or gas station.� The resource centre helped to work out a good food box program that is now very well used. Ken Hoffman, from One World – a consulting company that worked with the resource centres on developing the strategies – said Ottawa has particular challenges because some issues are unique to a rural setting, but a lot of the decisions are made in the urban area. Sylvie McGee, who has attended several meetings concerning the Carp Road dump, said the problem is the city makes rules that affect the rural communities but don’t necessarily make sense in that climate. “I think we often forget about the rural, rural people,� McGee said, adding she married into a family that has lived on their current lot for seven generations.

Aris said he couldn’t speak to the speculation, other than to say the riding association will begin the process when it is ready. O’Connor served in cabinet from 2006 until July 2013. The retired brigadier-general went from defence critic to defence minister when Stephen Harper’s Conservative took power eight years ago. His tenure wasn’t without controversy. The Conservatives had swept to power on ethics and accountability promises, including one to crack down on lobbying. (O’Connor was a defence industry lobbyist before joining elected politics.) Potential conflict-of-interest problems sprouted

almost immediately. There were also controversies involving his ministry over conflicting orders regarding the use of certain lightly-armoured vehicles after a number of Canadian soldiers were killed in them and the debate over Canadian soldiers’ handing over prisoners they captured when they allegedly knew Afghan officials would torture them. O’Connor was shuffled from defence to national revenue in 2007 and then served as chief government whip and Minister of State until last July. He remained popular with his constituents, easily winning re-election in the last election by capturing 57 per cent of the vote in Carleton-Mississippi Mills.

Doors Open to unlock 130 buildings including six in West Carleton laura.mueller@metroland.com

Community - People wanting to peek inside some of Ottawa’s closed-off embassies can hop on a bicycle and explore some sites on two wheels next month. For the first time, Ottawa Cycling Tours is offering a bicycle tour of embassies that are welcoming visitors as part of the 2014 edition of Doors Open, taking place June 7 and 8. The city-organized event, now in its 13th year, will make 130 public and private buildings in Ottawa open for viewing for free. Included are several buildings in West Carleton, including the Diefenbunker in Carp, Canadian Spaces Services at 2336 Craig’s Side Rd., the Carleton Masonic Lodge at 3704 Carp Rd., the Carp Exhibit Hall at 3790 Carp Rd., St. James Anglican Church at 3774 Carp Rd. (see related story), Pinhey’s Point Historic Site in Dunrobin. St. Mary’s Anglican Church and St. John’s South March Anglican Church and the Meehan Family Log Barn at the Herb Garden at 3840 Old Almonte Rd. are also a Doors Open stops. In addition to offering a bike tour between embassies, Ottawa Cycling Tours is planning to put together self-guided tour maps to provide participants with pre-made Doors Open itineraries. Andrea Recht, owner of Ottawa Cycling Tours, said

the maps should be available at RentABike, located at 2 Rideau St. where it meets Colonel By Drive. “I’ve always participated in Doors Open,” Recht said. “(On a bike) you’re outside the whole time and you can see how things are connected.” The bike tour and the entire Doors Open event will take place rain or shine. People can register for the bike tour by visiting ottawacyclingtours. com. There will be a yet-to-bedetermined fee for the tour, as well as $32 for a bike rental if required. Recht is planning to partner with RentABike to offer bicycle rentals for people who don’t have their own. Participants who would rather travel by more than two wheels can hop on an OC Transpo shuttle bus to travel be-

tween sites. New to the list of locations this year is OC Transpo’s integrated operations centre; the Children’s Hospital of Eastern Ontario, which is celebrating its 40th anniversary this year; the Ottawa Jewish Archives and the Embassy of Japan. Other locations include: government buildings, private businesses, artists’ studios and places of worship, all in both modern and heritage styles of architecture. Two popular destinations last year – the United States Embassy and the city traffic operations centre – are back on the list. A full list of participating buildings is available at ottawa. ca, or you can pick up a Doors Open event guide at any Bridgehead and at most Subway locations.

ing history of its own. The following is in the words of Doug’s wife Helen: “Douglas Gordon Rivington, born in 1932, was given a baptisimal dress by his Aunt Verna Campbell Douglas, his mother’s sister. Two years later, his sister Helene was baptized in it. “Doug and Helene made a new family at the Rivingtons, as they were eight years younger than the youngest of their three older brothers. “The little dress was in constant use by nieces and nephews, and soon, Doug’s five daughters. It seemed only a second until it was called to be washed and ironed again for grandchildren. Eleven out of 14 have used it. “The dress has spent most of its working life

at St James, Carp. It has proudly traveled to Guelph, to Morrisburg, to St Mark’s Pakenham and to Stittsville United Church. “Twenty-nine beautiful babies have been baptized in this treasured dress. “It has had a lengthy rest. The last child to wear it to the font was John Howie, Doug and Helen’s youngest grandchild, now almost 13 years old. “They have hopes that it will be in use again, soon. A great-grandchild is expected in August.” The church will be open for viewing on Saturday June 7 from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m., and on Sunday, June 8 from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m. All are welcome.

Police highlight partnerships at West Carleton centre Jessica Cunha jessica.cunha@metroland.com

News - Children from the Kids Korner childcare centre in Kinburn had an opportunity to get up close with emergency personnel and their vehicles on May 9. Ottawa police, firefighters, Coun. Eli El-Chantiry and volunteers were on hand to promote the partnerships at the West Carleton Community Complex, as well as to kickoff Police Week, which took place May 12 to 18. Police volunteers fingerprinted 26 children as part of the free child print program, which can help in the event that a child goes missing. Const. Stephanie Guilbeault said she’s hoping more residents will take advantage of the free services the community police centre offers to residents, such as home security evaluations, neighbourhood watches, business crime prevention, and identification programs. “Often, people don’t access these programs unless they’re a victim of crime,� said Guilbeault. The West Carleton community centre, located at 5670 Carp Rd. in Kinburn, offers a host of resources aside from the community police centre, including childcare, recreation, fire, paramedic, social and municipal services. “It’s nice to have a onestop shop,� said Vivienne, a women’s counsellor with the Western Ottawa Community Resource Centre – which also operates out of the Carp Road building. “It reaches the vulnerable and isolated women.� However, the hours of operation at the local complex are limited, Guilbeault said, because the site doesn’t have a high volume of foot traffic or phone calls.

Police are planning to review whether community police centres are still necessary after a centre in the city’s Herongate neighbourhood was closed, and one in Centretown was abandoned in 2012 and moved to a second-floor office inside city hall. The issue prompted Supt. Ty Cameron to consider whether a broader review of community police centres is warranted. That process is just getting underway and will likely continue into next year with the opportunity for residents to weigh in, Cameron said. He said the centres have been getting less and less drop-in traffic over the years as times change and a lot of reporting functions and information are now available online.

“I don’t think people feel there is a need for it,� Cameron said, referring to the bricksand-mortar centres, which cost around $180,000 to operate annually. If a space is still needed, Cameron said the police could look at co-locating with other services. El-Chantiry said every community police centre is unique, as are the areas they serve. And because police are mobile, they don’t necessarily need real estate to do their job. He added the review will look at all the centres in the city. “We’re focusing our energy on joint emergency services, looking for efficiency,� he said. The West Carleton service centre isn’t in danger of closing, El-Chantiry said, as it’s the only facility open to emergency crews 24/7 in the area. As well, it serves as a back-up location for city hall. “We’re really integrated with full city services,� said El-Chantiry.

The pits are still there, hundreds of feet deep and now full of water. The foundation wall of the smelter looms through the underbrush that is spreading over the site. It was a hundred meters long, built of massive concrete that is still solid today. It’s a powerfully evocative reminder of a time not so long ago when West Carleton was an important place on the industrial map of Canada. The tour was a great piece of public history. There were visitors from all over the area including a solid representation of French-speaking historians from the Quebec side.

They came to hear the story of Galetta’s Kingdon Mine. First, Jim Armstrong, past president of the Fitzroy Historical Society, gave the group a Power-Point presentation about the mine. Then the Galetta Women’s Institute served a great lunch of fresh sandwiches, after which the group went to the mine-site on Morris island, a couple of kilometres from Galetta for a tour guided by Donald C. Johnston. The Kingdon Mine was, in 1928, the most productive lead mine in Canada, supplying 200,000 tons of lead ore a year, from which the on-site smelter extracted around 6,000 tons of lead annually. In those days a lot of lead went into batteries for automobiles. The main Canadian battery manufacture was in Montreal, a direct ride by rail to Galetta. The mine employed around

Voter information available at returning offices, on Internet John Carter john.carter@metroland.com

News – Carleton-Mississippi Mills returning officer Edward Wilson has opened up a returning office in the riding to serve its 112,100 registered voters and ensure the voters list is up-to-date for the June 12 provincial election. The riding, which includes West Carleton, Kanata and the Mississippi Mills end of Lanark County, is the sixth most populous in the

province and second biggest in the Ottawa area behind Nepean Carleton. This will likely be the last election for the riding in its current configuration, as a redistribution recommends a new Kanata-Carleton riding with Mississippi Mills being hived off to join the Lanark riding. The Carleton-Mississippi Mills returning office is located in the Kanata Research Park at 340 Leggett Dr. in Unit 140.

New voters who will have turned 18 by election day and newcomers to the riding can drop by the office between 9 a.m. to 9 p.m. to register to vote. What they need is good identification documents, such as a driver’s licence or health card, proving they live locally. Voters who will be away from the riding on election day or during the advance poll period can vote by special ballot between May 15 and June 11 from 10 a.m to 8 p.m. (noon to 5 p.m. Sundays) at the re-

Lifestyle - It’s not top secret and won’t involve any real commandos, but Operation Father’s Day will see the Diefenbunker overrun with the Royal Canadian Dragoons and the rarest Cold War vehicles ever seen. Aimed at raising money for the Cold War museum and the Guild of the Royal Canadian Dragoons, the event will feature an unprecedented display of Cold War vehicles, including the ultra-rare Volvo Sugga. Families will also have a

chance to ride on a few of the vehicles, grab a tour of the museum, buy food and enjoy beer brewed by the Big Rig Brew Pub. Children can get involved too. The Dragoons will run a special Kiddy Commando course to put kids through their paces in a mock-military training camp. There will also be live Cold War era music by Adrian Butts. “It was a natural fit to have a partnership between the Dragoons and the Cold War Collection,� said Diefenbunker

marketing manager Megan Lafrenière. “It’s a great chance for families to come and spend Father’s Day, and to recognize the contribution of the men and women who have served our country.â€? The Diefenbunker is located at 3929 Carp Rd. Cost: $15 per person, $40 for a family of five and children under six free. For more information, call Megan Lafrenière at 613-8390007.

Werner Ernst Noffke (1878–1964) was once a household name in Ottawa, but today he is largely unknown to those who are unfamiliar with our city’s architectural history. A German native, he was one of Ottawa’s most inuential architects, and several of his buildings will be featured in Doors Open Ottawa 2014, a free event that celebrates the capital’s historically, functionally, culturally and architecturally signiďŹ cant buildings.

SUPPLIES NEEDED THIS WEEK: Non clumping cat litter, paper towels, lysol wipes

Noffke’s interest in architecture developed when he was a young boy, and by the age of 14 he was an apprentice to local architect Adam Harvey, who was also of German decent. As his passion for architecture grew, Noffke went on to study at the Fine Arts Association of Ottawa. By 1904, he would celebrate his ďŹ rst independently constructed building, which became his own home. The oldest of ďŹ ve Noffke buildings participating in this year’s event was constructed in 1910 and is located at 534 Queen Elizabeth Drive. Currently, it is the ofďŹ cial residence of the Greek Ambassador to Canada, but it was built for lawyer and Liberal Party organizer Andrew Haydon and was known as Haydon House. This marks the embassy’s ďŹ rst year in Doors Open Ottawa. Also featured for the ďŹ rst time is Powell House, built in 1913 for William Powell, who developed houses for the upper-middle classes in the Glebe before the First World

War. Located at 85 Glebe Avenue, it is now the Embassy of Vietnam to Canada and is referred to as Vietnam House. Shannon Ricketts, author of Werner Ernst Noffke: Ottawa’s Architect, said “Powell House is one of the largest and most elaborate of his favorite style – the Spanish colonial revival – a style for which Noffke was well known in Ottawa.â€? Other buildings that will be featured in this year’s Doors Open Ottawa include the Embassy of the Republic of Armenia to Canada, which was renovated by Noffke in 1917 and 1922; the Mercury Court Building, which received additions designed by Noffke in 1930; Mother House Chapel of the Sisters of Charity of Ottawa, built in 1936 by Noffke, Lucien Leblanc, and general contractor Henri Dagenais; and St. Paul’s Lutheran Church, renovated by Noffke in 1948. This year’s Doors Open Ottawa will feature 130 buildings, many of which are not normally open to the public, including 20 that are new to the program or that have not been able to participate in over ďŹ ve years. History and architecture are at the heart of this event, and Noffke’s buildings have a big part in telling the city’s story. “Many of Noffke’s grand homes are perfect residences for embassies, because they offer such splendid spaces for entertaining and great detail in the staircases and woodwork,â€? states Ricketts.

It sure beats the snow

A

fter a long, cold winter, there’s nothing the people of this city would enjoy more than a heatwave. For what felt like an eternity, Ottawa, and much of the rest of North America for that matter, sat trapped in a semi-glacial state. Nearly all of the Great Lakes froze over. There was snow on the ground almost everywhere in the United States at one point. We’ve had heavy snowfalls in the past – who can forget the winter of 2007-08 when more than 400 centimetres of fluffy white stuff fell on the city – but it was the combination of snow and bonechilling cold that made the winter of 2013-14 among the most unbearable in recent memory. The depressing thing is things aren’t going to get much better any time soon. Unfortunately we’re looking at a wet spring and some long-range forecasts suggest a cooler-than-average summer. The spring thaw and rains that pumped up local rivers and streams have passed with minimal flooding, but it seems like the showers will never stop. Such is late spring in Ottawa. It’s not all bad news though. Rain may be a pain, but it’s a necessary part of the year for everything we get to harvest this summer and fall. Even if you’re not a farmer or growing backyard veggies,

surely we can all agree rain is better than snow. And better that we get the daily showers out of the way before the outdoor festival season gets underway across our city. Events like Ottawa Bluesfest, the Jazz Festival, Folkfest, Canada Day, Race Day and upcoming football and soccer games at Lansdowne Park are much more enjoyable on bright sunny days and warm evenings than when it’s overcast and damp. Yet the rain will be great for those who got out over the Victoria Day weekend to fill their gardens full of annuals, perennials and vegetables. Better yet, if the heat is toned down a little bit, the lack of scorching heat will only benefit most of those plants and save gardeners from going through litres upon litres of water on a daily basis just to keep the flowers perky and crops alive. This goes for local farmers, too, who bring their bounty to the tables at farmers markets across the city. Just the right amount of rain and warmth, but not oppressively hot, days will help them make the most of their efforts. Weather is an obsession with we Canadians, and it never seems to be perfect for anyone. But it always helps to take a wider look at these trends and see the good in what would otherwise be a dreary spring.

Bring back the scalper guy with the cigar

A

s we find out every day, the Internet giveth and the Internet taketh away. The incredible convenience of doing things online is matched by the incredible inconvenience caused by what others do online. And this doesn’t even count what spending all your time online does to your waistline. The latest event to bring this to our attention is a minor crisis at Centrepointe Theatre where some ticket buyers wound up paying inflated prices to a ticket reseller. The theatre will honour the tickets, even though they were purchased from an unauthorized outlet. In all likelihood the buyers didn’t know the outlet was unauthorized, since all ticket resellers look quite respectable, even official, when they show up in a Google search. According to a Centrepointe official quoted in the Ottawa Citizen, about 50 per cent of the theatre’s tickets are sold online. What happens then is unclear. Do ticket resellers jump in and snap up tickets and sell them for more than they are worth? Or do individual buyers, because they can’t attend, perhaps because they want to make a little extra cash, offer up their seats through ticket resellers? Whichever it is, the results aren’t all good.

CHARLES GORDON Funny Town While some laud the reselling system for making it possible for people to attend events for which tickets are scarce, others blame the system itself for creating the scarcity of tickets. And there is the further problem of phony tickets. The immediate impulse of many people is to demand that government do something to stop this. The problem is that governments already have. Across Canada, including Ontario, governments have put in place rules to prevent reselling at more than face value. But, of course, resellers operating out of the U.S., which was the case in the Centrepointe incident, don’t worry about Ontario law. And the laws don’t seem to have put an end to the ticket reselling business, which carries on. Just do a search on tickets for any

upcoming event in Ottawa and see what pops up. Despite a law against selling at inflated value, there must still be money in the reselling biz. Is this a problem? Depends on how you look at it. There are two issues: one is price, the other is availability. Provincial laws deal mainly with the first. The second is tougher. Those who remember the pre-computer days, remember lining up at 5 a.m. or trying desperately to get through on the phone to the box office on the day tickets to a big event went on sale. In the early computer days, the wait was to connect online to the box office the instant the box office opened. That still happens, but it appears in some instances that the resellers somehow get there first, snapping up tickets and frustrating the public. A lot of people just learn to live with this. They trudge off, electronically, to the reseller and get their tickets. Those that don’t know their way around have to do without, as do those who have an aversion to what they think of as computerized scalping. Some of them would sooner pay the extra dollars to the old-time scalper, the guy with the cigar whispering outside the arena. At least he seems like a small businessman.

For the moment, it appears that government isn’t the answer. Is the answer to ask large entertainment venues not to sell online? Imagine how that would go over. Even for older generations, using online to purchase tickets has become a habit. Could tickets be made non-transferable? Combining tickets with I.D. has been tried in various places. But what about the person who has genuine reasons for not being able to attend and needs to get rid of his ticket? Fixing this isn’t going to be easy. And it’s small consolation to know that, in some respects, we have ourselves to blame.

Humane Society’s cat adoption policy misguided To the Editor:

I am an animal lover. I have owned animals all my life and treat them with love, kindness, dignity and respect. Recently one of my cats died of old age. My remaining cat, having never been on his own in 10 years, was lonesome. I decided to get him a

companion. Doing the responsible thing, I decided to support our local humane society and give a loving home to a rescue cat. I phoned ahead and was told that there were 150+ cats for adoption. I went to Arnprior with cat carrier in hand to find a cat. The only stipulation was

that the cat was comfortable with my resident cat and dog. No preference to colour or gender. I filled out all the papers required and was then told I could not take the cat with me but had to wait 24 hours to be approved, and that I would get a phone call. Two weeks later I finally phoned them and

found out that my application had been rejected. The reason wasn’t because I wasn’t a responsible pet owner, but because the cat would be sleeping in my stable. My stable is like a house, heated in the winter and screened in the summer. The cats each have their own cat beds, feed and water bowls,

To the Editor:

I am happy to announce that TransCanada’s Energy East Pipeline project crossed a key milestone recently with the filing of the project’s description to the National Energy Board of Canada (NEB). The filing is the first step in the formal regulatory process for TransCanada to receive the necessary approvals to build and operate the $12-billion project that will allow Eastern Canadian markets to access a less expensive and more stable supply of crude oil from Western Canada. The Energy East Pipeline project involves con-

verting approximately 3,000 kilometers of existing natural gas pipeline in our Canadian Mainline between Alberta and Eastern Ontario to crude oil service and building approximately 1,600 kilometers of new pipeline to access refineries and export terminals in Quebec and Saint John, New Brunswick. Energy East is anticipated to be in service in 2018. We invite the public to obtain more information by visiting our website at energyeastpipline.com or by calling 1-855-8958750.

Gracie’s wilderness adventure Opinion - It was a long, hard winter for Gracie the sheep. Her lamb was taken to market so she doesn’t have to nurse him anymore, but she is still a bit underweight and needs to gain. The grass on the pasture hasn’t exactly perked up yet. The grass on the lawn, in contrast, is lush and green. Sometimes I let Gracie out onto the lawn for an hour or two. The sweet green shoots of grass are full of nutrients for her. The other morning she was out there on the lawn while I was getting ready for work. The trouble started when the Farmer left for the office. Gracie saw the big black truck pulling out of the driveway and decided to follow it. She is the only sheep left and she has been adjusting quite well for a herd animal, keeping company with the horse and donkey, but she remembers the truck that took the rest of the sheep away. I told them they were going on vacation and I guess she decided she was tired of being left behind and wanted to go too. She followed the truck around the corner and down the road a bit but got distracted by something on the neighbour’s lawn. I don’t know how

long she was there, snacking on their wildflowers, when I got a phone call. “One of your sheep is on my lawn,” was the report. I went as fast as I could, but when I got there she was already gone “into the forest.” “That can’t be right. Sheep don’t like the forest,” I said, looking down the road at other possible destinations. Cows love the forest, but sheep hate the mysteries of the bush with its myriad hiding places for dangerous predators. They never go in there. And yet there she was. Halfway up the fence line I could see the cows gathering at the fence. I could just make out the little white fluff ball that is Gracie on the other side of the fence. The forest side. Sigh. This would mean going back up to the house, where I could enter the barnyard and the forest, through the one gate. I had to change into boots. And grab a bucket of sweet feed.

As I trudged and crashed ever-so-delicately through the brush, I thought, it’s true. You can feel a dozen eyes on you. I didn’t see any deer, raccoons, wild turkeys or coyotes, but I’m sure at least a couple of those were in there, watching my rude invasion. Gracie was not answering my constant call. She had made her way all the way down the fence line to where the cows were grazing, hoping to join them on the pasture side, no doubt. Finally I reached her. “Gracie. Come here.” Nothing. She just stood and looked at me, her eyes wild with fear. I shook the feed bucket – a gesture and sound that had the cows rushing the electric fence. Gracie didn’t budge. Normally Gracie comes when I call and follows like a dog. That clearly wasn’t going to work this time. I tried tapping her from behind with a stick. She just turned and looked at me, insulted. I

tugged on her fleece and halfdragged her over to the fence. I hadn’t taken the time to change into farm clothes and hoped I wouldn’t permanently ruin my dress pants. I contemplated launching her over the fence, under the barbed and electric wire. I stood her up on her hind legs but couldn’t lift her off her feet. She had gained weight, after all. I tried shoving her head down to the ground and showing her the way under the fence, but she wasn’t having any of it. She fought me every bit of the way. Then I got an idea. I flipped her onto her back, the way we do when we are shearing. I held her down with my knee on her shoulder and lifted the fence. Then I very clumsily rolled her under the fence. As soon as her face was on the pasture side, she bounced up and away. Freedom! Off she ran, to join the cows. Another adventure comes to an end. I trudged back up through the forest, down the road and up to the house. Then I hopped in the car and went off to work, smelling faintly of mutton.

still hopeful a solution can be found to continue offering the associate diploma and degree programs in agriculture at Kemptville College too.” Students already enrolled in the campus’s associate diploma programs in agriculture, equine care and food science will be able to complete their programs in Kemptville for 2014-15. OFA says it strongly believes the industry needs a plan, continued investment and support for agricultural training institutions such as Kemptville College. According to recent University of Guelph research, there are two jobs waiting for every diploma graduate in Ontario and three jobs waiting for every degree program graduate. “These job opportunities demonstrate the strength of Ontario’s agrifood sector and the promising future it offers the next generation,” says the OFA. Ontario Minister of Training, Colleges and Universities Brad Duguid announced a new facilitator position will be appointed to assist in the development of a long-term solution to keep Kemptville College operating.

The government announcement indicates the funding will provide skills training in trades that support the agricultural sector in Eastern Ontario, including welding, dairy herdsperson and agricultural equipment, heavy duty equipment, truck and coach, and horticultural technicians. and dairy herdsperson. “This is the first positive message we’ve had since the announcement was made to close the college less than a month ago,” says OFA president Mark Wales, in a news release circulated by the Renfrew County OFA. “Our industry, together with eastern Ontario communities, is grateful for the program extensions.

The feathered jewels of the sky are on the move Lifestyle - Just last week I went south to watch birds. My destination is at the same latitude as Barcelona and northern California. It is world famous for birds and each year thousands of birders from Canada and elsewhere converge there. My destination was Point Pelee National Park near Windsor. In earlier years I visited Pelee every spring, usually for a couple of weeks in May, the height of spring migration. In the early 1980s I worked there as an interpretive naturalist, so I got to know the park intimately. I haven’t been to Pelee for nearly a decade, so I was especially excited to be going again in the peak of spring migration. Pelee, like other sand spits that jut out into Lake Erie, is a stopover for migrating songbirds. After crossing Lake Erie during the night, birds drop down to feed and rest before continuing their journey. Weather is a factor in just how many birds put down. The best “fallouts� occur when warm southwesterly winds push birds northward, and late-night rains force them to land. Such conditions

Michael Runtz Nature’s Way occurred during my visit. Cool weather often forces the birds to forage low to the ground, gleaning insects from under leaves and branches. That happened during my visit. There were red and black grosbeaks, orange orioles, and yellow and green warblers foraging at ground level along the trails. Especially active were woodland ponds where little bridges traversed them. It was amazing to experience flocks of warblers – the “jewels of the bird world� – flitting around you, hovering above the water and pausing briefly on branches below eye

level. Birders are particularly fond of warblers and most of the eastern North American species dressed in their finest breeding garb can be found in Pelee in May. In my visit I encountered a respectable 28 species, and had fantastic close-up views of most of them. Needless to say, just like those of many other happy visitors, my camera was operating full time. As usual, birders encountered a number of “good birds,� species considered rare in Pelee. I managed to see a Hooded Warbler, a Summer Tanager, a Kentucky Warbler, two Yellow-breasted Chats and a White-eyed Vireo, southerners that show up annually at Pelee. Other highlights were a Willet at Hillman Marsh and a Laughing Gull at Wheatley Harbour, hot spots part of the Pelee birding region. Another reward of birding at Pelee is meeting up with other kindred spirits. I encountered many friends and acquaintances that I hadn’t seen for years, some for decades. And new friends were made.

Above, a Black-throated Blue Warbler makes it easy to understand why they are considered “jewels of the bird world.� Right, Magnolia Warblers are one of the many songbirds that pass through Pelee on their way north. I spent a lot of time searching the woods with four keen Welsh birders. We agreed to keep in contact and plan to meet again some day, perhaps in Pelee, perhaps in some distant part of the world. Possibly even in Wales. This year I am doing a 24hour Birdathon to raise money for Bird Studies Canada.

Ducks Unlimited banquet, auction raises $27,000 for wetlands News - The Arnprior Chapter of Ducks Unlimited Canada raised close to $27,000 for wildfowl habitat in this area at its annual Conservation Banquet and fundraising auction at the Nick Smith Centre April 25. “It was our most successful dinner we had yet,” said Ducks Unlimited local chapter member Chris Coady, who played a key role in organizing the fundraiser. The dinner sold out with 208 people from all over the region attending to socialize and bid on a wealth of donated auction items. “It’s a big draw,” said Coady. “We have a great mix of people who have been coming here for years.” He was also impressed by the number of youth in the crowd, noting it bodes well for the future of conservation and habitat protection. Ducks Unlimited Canada chief operating officer Jamie Fortune attended and praised the Coadys and the Arnprior chapter members for doing a “wonderful job” in ensuring that “we’ll all be better off in the future.”

Celebrating at the Arnprior Ducks Unlimited conservation banquet and auction, from left, are organizers Scott Coady, Chris Coady and Sean Mulvihill. At far left, Guy Hobbs’ Winter Wolf is admired. Arnprior is a “fabulous town” and its people are taking a leadership role in preserving wetlands, he said, adding that all the money raised at the event will go toward projects in this region. In the Arnprior area, Ducks Unlimited has enhanced almost 700 acres of wetland habitat. Also attending was Ducks Un-

limited Ontario manager of events and volunteer relations Tim Binch, who praised the local organizers for hosting a successful fundraiser year after year. Coady thanked all the donors, sponsors, volunteers. auctioneer Blake Corbin, caterer Shari Rathwell and his “great committee” for making the fundraiser possible.

Lifestyle – Huntley Centennial Public School is holding an E-waste collection fundraiser on Sunday, June 1. E-waste can be dropped off from 9 a.m. to noon at Huntley Centennial’s school parking lot. If alternate arrangements need to be made, the fundraiser co-ordinator can be reached via email at huntley.centennial.fundraiser@gmail.com. Research shows 50 per cent of Ontarians have at least six or more used electronic items in their household. If you and your family are in this statistic, bring your used electronics to the school’s E-waste fundraiser, urges the school’s Parent Council, which is hosting the depot in partnership with Ontario Electronic Stewardship (OES). The parent council notes the OES program is regulated and meets rigorous standards. OES service providers adhere to strict regulations and use a variety of techniques to ensure sensitive data is destroyed in the recycling process. Following are some of the accepted items you can bring to be recycled: amplifiers, audio and video players and recorders, cameras, cell phones, computers (desktop and laptop) and peripherals, copiers, digital cameras, fax machines, monitors, pagers and PDAs, printers, radios, receivers, scanners, speakers, telephones and answering machines, tuners, turntables, televisions, and video projectors.

Community benefits: too little, too late?

Many ‘disappointed’ by Section 37 payments Laura Mueller laura.mueller@metroland.com

News - Two years of the city collecting “community benefit” payments from developers has left many disappointed. For local residents and for some of the councillors who represent them, the money coming in isn’t enough. Most developers aren’t exactly keen on the extra fee – or more specifically, how it is calculated. Even city planners are disappointed by how few of the rezonings the city approved since the spring of 2012 have qualified for the extra fee, which can be put towards small local infrastructure projects in the hopes of making an area more “livable” when hundreds of new people make their homes in new buildings – usually condo towers. Only six developments qualified for the extra payments since Ottawa enacted a policy to allow it to take advantage of Section 37 of the Ontario Planning Act, which provides a way for municipalities to collect extra money from developers in exchange for more lenient zoning so they can construct larger, denser buildings. The planning department had promised a full-blown review of the policy a year after it went into effect. Two years later, there still weren’t enough qualifying de-

velopments to do a review or make changes, so the department issued a memo instead. “There simply aren’t enough examples to come to a conclusion on what works,” said Michael Mizzi, chief of development review for the city. The review has been rescheduled until the beginning of 2015. For Kitchissippi Coun. Katherine Hobbs, it’s the money that’s not enough, even though her ward is home to the largest community benefits deal so far: $3.43 million for a planned Claridge development at 1040 Somerset St. W. NOT ABOUT COMMUNITY

One big problem in her ward is that residents think every development will qualify and result in community benefits. That’s not the case – the calculation is complicated, but only rezonings that result in a relatively large uptick in density and therefore value would qualify. Still, Hobbs said the payments are “like getting money for nothing.” “It’s a bit of a gift,” she said. It can put a dent in the long list of projects that residents are asking for in Kitchissippi ward: pedestrian and cycling improvements, more green spaces or even a fund for community housing. But it’s only a small dent, Hobbs said. Adding a water fountain at Byron Linear Park alone will cost approximately $15,000, Hobbs said. With price tags like that, the community benefit money doesn’t go too far, Hobbs said. Capital Coun. David Chernushenko had a different take on why the payments weren’t enough. He said he was surprised to learn that the average amount

of money the city gets through Section 37 agreements is 28 per cent of the uplift in value from the rezoning. “We certainly had higher hopes,” said Chernushenko, calling the percentage “disappointing.” “Someone is making a lot of profit out of it and we’re only negotiating crumbs from them,” he said. But Mizzi said between 20 and 30 per cent of the uplift value is a standard amount to expect for a community benefit payment. City planners don’t have a specific target to meet, but that range is generally where the negotiations with developers land, he said. “Success isn’t measure on your cash contribution alone,” Mizzi said.

Neil Malhotra of Claridge Homes says he sees the new fee as a cost of doing business. In fact, he said his company sees it as a positive thing because it helps Claridge contribute to improving the downtown and making the areas around its buildings attractive for poten-

tial homebuyers. Martin Chenier of Brigil had a different view. He said the fee is another way the city is squeezing developers. From rising development charges to the need to provide parkland or open space, those additional costs

like community benefits payments end up trickling down to homebuyers, Chenier said. “If you take each of these components in it’s just a little item. “Put it all together these are big increases that people are going to have to absorb,” he

TRUE SUCCESS

For instance, in the case of a Domicile building at 514-532 Rochester St., city planners negotiated to include threebedroom units in the building – something the city wants, since it allows families to live in the urban area in a range of housing styles and costs. Including those units meant Domicile paid less for the community benefit payment, Mizzi said, but those units are of huge value to the city and the community. “That ‘draw down’ is an integral part (of) achieving the broader goals of the city,” Mizzi said. “That is worth something.” Linda Hoad, a community association member and activist from Hintonburg, said the negotiations allow too much flexibility to reduce the developer’s payments. “It’s hazy to me and wide enough to drive a bus through in terms of how it’s calculated,” Hoad said.

Region grapples with mailbox locations Adam Kveton adam.kveton@metroland.com

News - Proposed locations for community mailboxes in Kanata are filtering through to community associations which now are hoping their feedback will be heeded despite a perceived lack of public consultation. Both the Kanata Beaverbrook Community Association and the Katimavik-Hazeldean Community Association reviewed the preliminary site locations at public meetings over

the past several weeks. Comments from community members express concern for the safety of placing boxes at certain locations without sidewalks or near busy roads, the accessibility of the boxes (especially in winter) and whether the boxes go in directly in front of houses or not. Community association leaders have suggested that many of these issues could have been avoided if there had been public consultation. But it seems Canada Post “doesn’t believe in that,” said

Kanata North Coun. Marianne Wilkinson at a Beaverbrook meeting on April 24. “It’s really frustrating,” she said, adding that she had invited Canada Post to attend public meetings, but they had refused. Kanata South Coun. Allan Hubley has promised that greater public consultation will take place, with public meetings before the final locations are chosen. Beaverbrook association former president Gary Sealey said, “We deplore the lack of an

open process,” and encouraged residents to start up a committee to make recommendations to Canada Post. Though Canada Post had performed a survey of residents, many at the Beaverbrook meeting said it was far too limiting, and did not ask the right questions. Rod MacLean, president of the Katimavik-Hazeldean Community Association, said he anticipates Canada Post will act on recommendations made by the community, provided there are valid reasons for

Touch A Truck

wanting the location moved. “We are not just hoping. We are expecting,” he said. “In some cases, when you have a legitimate case that there is a safety factor or you move it 10 feet and at least it’s out of sight,” he said. “Those kinds of responses should be reasonably well received.” When the community association held their meeting, reactions on the community mailboxes were mixed, said MacLean. “We have reactions all the way from, ‘Well, it’s time this happened,’ to, ‘It should never happen,’,” he said. “Compounding the issues is the question, ‘Why aren’t they talking to us? Why don’t they come?’” said Ma-

cLean. Canada Post announced on Feb. 20 that 11 communities across Canada would be the first to receive their mail in community mailboxes as part of a cost-cutting measure that is anticipated to go nationwide in five years. Kanata is one of the first 11 communities, along with Oakville, Ont. Fort McMurray, Alta. and others. The move is expected to save between $400 million and $500 million a year once it’s fully implemented. Though Canada Post has said it will seek input from the community with regards to helping people with mobility issues, that communication has been severely lacking according to Kanata community groups and Wilkinson. Proposed locations for community mailboxes can be viewed at www.kanatabeaverbrook.ca/joomla16/ for Kanata North.

Section 37 has been a learning process in Ottawa, Malhotra said, but it could work better if everyone involved saw it as a basis for consensus building, rather than a consolation prize for communities that have opposed a development. Chenier was less enthusiastic. He said the discussions with city planners are not negotiations at all. “We’re just basically told that’s what it’s going to be. There is no way for us to say is that the right value,” he said. “They should make it a basic fee and not call it a negotiation.” Before any of those negotiations begin, the ward councillor is supposed to consult with residents on what they’d like to see as community benefits if and when any Section 37 money comes down the pipes. From her experience and discussions at the Federation of Citizens Associations, a local gathering of community group representatives, the consultations with councillors aren’t necessarily happening, Hoad said. She said the councillors should have to provide a list back to the community of what they’ve heard and determined are the priorities. In Kitchissippi, Hobbs has decided the best way to do that is rely on the improvements and benefits listed in the six commu-

nity design plans drafted for the ward. Those plans had broad consultation and represent the best consensus on what the community wants, Hobbs said. But as the city begins to act on promises of “certainty” in land-use planning made by Mayor Jim Watson and planning committee chairman Coun. Peter Hume, some are wondering if drafting the Section 37 policy was worth it. Taking advantage of Section 37 relies on uncertainty – it is the result of a developer’s request for something that in no way matches what neighbours knew to expect on a site based on the zoning and sometimes, the city’s Official Plan – the bible of how the city will develop and grow. Mizzi agreed there will probably be fewer development applications that qualify for community benefit payments in the future, but he pointed out there are other ways for the city to get improvements to the public realm from developers. The city often negotiates to improve the sidewalks and greenery around a redeveloped lot, especially downtown, Mizzi said. That’s also the kind of goal the city is trying to achieve through Section 37, he said. “There may not even be a role for this,” Malhotra said.

Give up mobile devices safe driving campaign set for May 23-24 News - When you’re driving, focus your attention on the road. It’s a simple message but one too many Canadians ignore. In fact, texting behind the wheel makes you up to 23 times more likely to crash. And nearly 80 per cent of collisions are due to distracted drivers. To help raise awareness and offer a platform to speak out about the dangers of distracted driving, Allstate Insurance Company of Canada is encouraging Canadians to sacrifice their personal tech devices and the Internet for 23 hours in a national event called Distraction-Free 23 (DF23), which runs from May 23 to 24. Despite legislation in all Canadian jurisdictions, distracted driving is still a serious problem and fatal collisions caused by distracted drivers are at an all-time high. A 2013 study commissioned by Allstate Canada and Abacus Data revealed 90 per cent of respondents admitted to driving with some form of a distraction, an increase of 15

per cent since Allstate Canada conducted a similar survey in 2010. “DF23 is like a one-day fast from your personal tech distractions, and is designed to help get the attention of your friends and family,” says Ryan Michel of Allstate Canada. “In today’s society, people seem to feel the need to be connected 24-7, even when they’re driving, but if you demonstrate you can go 23 hours without your tech device, surely you, and others, can go a few minutes in the car without your device.” The national event kicks off at 6 p.m. on this Friday, May 23 and runs until 5 p.m. on May 24. During this time participants are encouraged to spend quality time with others without using personal electronic devices (cell phones, tablets, mp3 players, etc.) or the Internet. DISTRACTION-FREE 23

Distraction-Free 23 is open

Rains swell Ottawa River, tributaries News – Last week’s rainy weather resulted in a flood warning being issued for the Ottawa River Watershed and Round and Golden lakes on the Bonnechere River. The Ministry of Natural Resources reported May 15 that water levels are still high throughout Renfrew County, and expected to rise even more with significant rainfall forecast for the next three days. The Ottawa River is at a “very high level with strong flows and is rising,” said the MNR. Flooding was expected to occur in low lying areas around the Ottawa River such as Lapasse and Westmeath. “Residents should keep a close watch on conditions, regularly check updated messages and stay away from fast-moving rivers and streams,” said the MNR.

to all Canadians. Simply visit distractionfree23.ca to sign the pledge promising to give up your personal tech distractions for a full 23 hours and help spread the message that distracted driving kills. It’s easy to login with Facebook or Twitter accounts and add an avatar on your social media profile, letting friends know you’re disconnecting from the online world for the duration of the event. “Most people think summer is the safest time of year to be driving. Yet while the roads are clear and dry, it is in fact the deadliest season,” says Michel. “We’re holding DF23 in May to increase awareness of the dangers of the road when people are thinking about getting away. “There’s strength in numbers,” Michel adds. “So the more people we have pledging and sharing their pledges to go Distraction-Free 23, the stronger our message will be.” Allstate Canada piloted the Distraction-Free 23 initiative

last fall, including an event with 60 teens at Rick Hansen Secondary School in Mississauga - which was an eyeopening and inspiring experience for the students (video) – and a national online pledge that saw over 1,300 Canadians across the country participate. This year, Allstate is partnering with Student Life Network in a contest where Canadian students who sign the DF23 pledge will have a chance to win a prize that includes pizza and a movie for the winner and 23 friends or a limo ride and dinner for the winner and six friends. HIGH SCHOOL SPIRIT

And if students sign up as part of their school and encourage at least 10 of their classmates to take the pledge, the school will be automatically entered for a chance to win the ‘High School Spirit’ prize of $1,000. For more on the campaign and contest, visit justdrivecanada.ca.

Burn Your Bra tradition continues in Pakenham Community – The popular ladies night, Burn Your Bra for Bev, celebrated its 10th anniversary May 9 at Stewart Community Centre in Pakenham. This year’s theme was

blue and raised funds for the Hopewell Eating Disorder Center and the Lanark County Family Relief Program. Since its inception in 2005, the event has raised more than

$360,000 for charities and nonprofit organizations. It is named in honour of the late Bev Griffiths, an original committee member, who passed away in suddenly in 2006.

The benefits of interlocking concrete When you need to pave your driveway or walkways, there is no better choice than interlocking concrete.

Local band Sidewinder, who provided entertainment during the evening, does their sound check as tables are decorated for the event. Prior to the start of Burn Your Bra for Bev, each team of ladies brings décor to enhance their tables and spread the theme of awareness.

It’s one of the most economical pavement options out there, especially when it comes to long-term care. That’s partly because interlocking pavement is low maintenance.

Luckily, getting a hold of interlocking concrete in the Ottawa-Carlton region is painless. Canlok Stone www. canlok.com has been serving the area for over 35 years and has value and selection that’s hard to find anywhere else. Additionally, to supplement your new interlocking concrete installation, Canlok also carries base materials such as topsoil, sand, stone dust as well as pebble, decorative stones and boulders so you can perfect your project.

Interlocking concrete is also a great choice for our harsh Canadian winters. The paver units’ joints help absorb any sort of frost-related movement, meaning that it is freeze and thaw resistant. With interlocking concrete, worrying about pavement damage is a thing of the past, and that’s particularly great considering how aesthetically pleasing interlocking concrete can be.

Hundreds of items, including original artwork, gift certificates and patio furniture, lined the Stewart Community Centre for the silent auction.

That ease is something you can appreciate right from day one as interlocking concrete can be used immediately after it is installed. It is also reusable, too, which is great if you have to remove it to fix a pavement problem or to install utilities. With interlocking concrete, you can simply remove the pavement and reinstall it when the work is completed.

Pinto Valley Ranch: the end off an era e Jessica Cunha jessica.cunha@metroland.com

JESSICA CUNHA/METROLAND

Ben and Tracey Jardine, the third generation to run Pinto Valley Ranch, are preparing to start a new chapter with their family. jections the Jardines set when they took over the farm, leaving them comfortable financially. The family closed the restaurant Step Up Ruby’s earlier this year. “It’s kind of crazy that we’d close now, but my gut’s telling me to shut it down,� said Tracey. “My kids should be the ones that benefit,� she added. “Pinto Valley Ranch will still be here, just in a different format.� Instead, Pinto Valley will become

a private boarding and training facility, leaving the family more time to enjoy the farm itself, and each other. The Jardines wants to be able to attend fairs, enter horse shows, grow a garden and spend more time with family and friends. They will be able to RSVP “yes� to birthdays, weddings and celebrations – something they weren’t able to do since every weekend was booked solid far in advance.

News - It’s the end of an era for Pinto Valley Ranch and the beginning of another for the Jardine family. Tracey and Ben Jardine, the third generation to run the ranch since its inception almost six decades ago, made the difficult decision to close the stables to the public in order to spend more time with their three children. June 1 will be the last day open before the stables become a private boarding and training facility. “It was hard and scary,� said Tracey, sitting at the large kitchen table with a cup of coffee. “But we’re happy we made this decision.� Since taking ownership of the farm more than five years ago from Tracey’s parents, Ernie and Gail Smith, the family’s waking hours had been devoted to running the business: caring for the animals, maintenance of the property, taking visitors out on horseback and all the other minute details involved in operating a ranch. “Myself or my husband have been on every trail ride,� said Tracey. “You’re burnt out for your children. I don’t want to do that anymore. “My husband (in the Canadian Forces) laughingly says he goes to work to get a break.� The decision to close was based on the benefit to the family. The business hit all the goals and pro-

Many memories at Pinto Valley Continued from Page 33

“Friends continually dropped by for a visit and a horseback ride. The number of riders continued to increase, to the point where Morley put up a sign stating 25 cents per ride as an effort to discourage riders. His efforts were not successful and more and more people were dropping by the farm for a horseback ride. The children enjoyed the horses so much that they successfully talked their father into opening a horseback riding facility,” states the farm’s history. Ernie was 10 when his father bought the property. He and Gail partnered with his parents before purchasing Pinto Valley. Tracey grew up on the farm with her three siblings, helping to keep the operation running as it continued to grow. After they were married, Tracey and Ben moved into a house just down the road with their three children: Payton, 14, Reese, 12, and Carter, 8. When their eldest was 10, the Jardines began looking for their own farm and the Smiths were looking forward to retirement. Tracey said she wanted to raise her children on a farm where they would have the op-

portunity to gain a vast array of knowledge and skills. She and her father hammered out a deal at the kitchen table, and Ernie and Gail moved to a house across the road. The memories are many and photographs fill a number of albums and frames; snapshots of moments frozen in time during the long run of Pinto Valley. Ernie remembers how the petting zoo came about; a client asked him to provide farm animals for an event, something Pinto didn’t have available. So on his drive to Ottawa, Ernie stopped at farms to “borrow” the animals. He returned the animals on his way home and the farmers never knew, he said. When he told them what he’d done, they had a laugh. The success prompted him to stock his own

animals in a petting zoo. The ranch and its horses have also been used in a number of productions – from Disney’s The Liberators (which Ernie also rode in) to music videos for Canadian country music artist Kira Isabella and re-enactments of world war battles. “I trained the soldiers over two weeks,” said Ernie about a First World War re-enactment in Kingston. “We had a team (of two horses) go to the States for (U.S. President Barak) Obama’s inauguration. Another time, they had a family from the States park their camper on the ranch for three days. The family had planned a winter vacation in Calabogie, but the weather was too mild for outdoor activities. They met the Smiths, who offered Pinto Valley, saving the family’s trip.

SUBMITTED PHOTOS

Morley Smith, left, in an undated photo, was the first proprietor of Pinto Valley Ranch. “You meet ’em from all over,” said Ernie. Ernie said he believes his daughter has made the right decision; running a farm and a business leaves little time to

spend with loved ones. “I like a new chapter,” he said. The Jardines are preparing to turn the page and see where the

phase takes them. “There’s been a lot of great things,” said Tracey. “I think the blessing is we can stay and enjoy the farm.”

Auction set for June 14 News - Pinto Valley Ranch will host its annual auction at the farm on Saturday, June 14. The farm is closing to become a private boarding and training facility after June 1, the last day open to the public. Many of Pinto Valley’s horses and petting zoo animals will be available in the

auction, said Tracey Jardine, who runs the ranch with her husband Ben. Currently, they have close to 50 horses in the herd, as well as ponies, goats, sheep, ducks, pigs and chickens. The auction will be held at Pinto Valley Ranch, at 1969 Galetta Side Rd., starting at 10 a.m. “until we finish,” said Tracey.

Rising to the occasion: 4-H Breadventure Achievement Day a success Lauryn Rochon-Kaiser, Breadventure Press Reporter

Lifestyle - The West Carleton 4H Breadventure Achievement Day was held on Sunday, April 27 at the Galetta Hall. Achievement Day is when members of the club are asked to display or talk about everything they have learned through being part of the club. All members were asked to select a bread recipe, prepare, display and present it. The members all wore their 4-H aprons that had been awarded at the previous meeting. About 40 family members and friends attended the event to support the club. Robyn Rochon-Kaiser, vice-president, began the meeting

with the 4-H pledge. She thanked various individuals such as Eleanor Wallace for donating the use of the Galetta Hall for all of our meetings; to Lynda McCuaig, the Carleton 4-H secretary who travelled across Ottawa to come to the event; and to the parents and friends who ate all of the bread projects as they were being perfected over the past several months. Guests were then told they could pick up a plate and begin sampling the various tasty baked goods. Thirteen projects were presented. The breads being presented included: Lindsay Bates – Chelsea Buns, Sarah Dean – Refrigerator Crescent Rolls, Taylor Gillan – English Muffins in a Loaf, Jaclyn Gillan – Pumpkin Bread, Justine h^cXZ &.-+

It was encouraged that the visitors write comment cards to the bread makers regarding their individual projects. Everyone was anxious to see what the comments were for their individual projects. Everyone enjoyed the samples. Some people even went back for seconds. Robyn Rochon-Kaiser then thanked the guests once again for

their support. The members were also thanked for representing the club so well. Everybody left with a full stomach and some wonderful recipes to try out. A big thank you to Carolyn Styles and Melody Rochon for leading the Breadventure Club and making this a memorable Achievement Day.

to the city and the community of Barrhaven for the “unacceptable” number of malfunctions. “We understand recent events in the Barrhaven area may have eroded that confidence,” Beaulieu said. “We are sincerely sorry … Our goal is to turn this around.” The Crown corporation says it has already begun an up-to $3.5-million project to fix the issues, which fall into four categories: electrical, such as hydro line interference and salt contaminating the track and disrupting the signal; operational issues with trains stopping between the two stations and setting off signals; mechanical issues with the gates; and software problems with circuit boards and signal control devices. Sixty-four per cent of the planned fixes are already completed, said Aaron Branston of

Rail Term, the contractor that maintains the crossings on behalf of Via. Software to enable the sending of real-time notifications for signal issues directly to Via and Rail Term has been enabled at Woodroffe, Fallowfield and the Transitway crossings. Cameras will be installed at the same crossings by the end of June and at the three other crossings – Greenbank, Strandherd and Jockvale – after that. Via has also reduced train speeds to 30 to 40 miles per hour (around 50 to 65 kilometres per hour) around some of the crossings. In looking further ahead, perhaps not until the spring of 2015, Via plans to spend $2 million to install what it calls a “siding” – basically a side track to act as a train parking lot between Via’s two stations, to avoid trains having to stop on the main track, which sets off signals. An enhanced maintenance schedule has been put in place and Desjardins-Siciliano assured Knoxdale-Merivale Coun. Keith Egli, the transportation committee chairman, that enhanced maintenance will be continued in order to prevent similar deterioration from reoccurring. “I enjoy Ottawa, but i don’t enjoy this moment,” DesjardinsSiciliano said. “We don’t want to come back. We will make sure the maintenance schedule is modified to prevent reoccurrence.” Desjardins-Siciliano said he coaxed former Via chief executive John Marginson out of retirement to be on-site in Ottawa overseeing the project. With that oversight will come better communication and messages directly from him, DesjardinsSiciliano said. That pleased Barrhaven Coun. Jan Harder, who emphasized that better communication with the public will be essential to earning back residents’ trust. Via officials urged residents to check the website it set up to provide up-to-date information on the Barrhaven crossings: viarail.ca/en/about-via-rail/information-ottawa-area-residents. Desjardins-Siciliano was just appointed to his role on Saturday, less than a week prior to the briefing of city officials, and he said he is feeling the pressure from Mayor Jim Watson, transport Minister Lisa Raitt and Ottawa WestNepean MP John Baird to fix the issues. “I can feel the heat of their breath on my neck,” he said. “I heard their concerns, I share their concerns and we will address their concerns.”

NEWS

Connected to your community

Biking to work encouraged Laura Mueller laura.mueller@metroland.com

News - The message for this year’s Bike to Work month is that almost anyone can cycle to work for at least part of their commute, even if you live in farflung West Carleton. Even if people live a bit farther away from their place of work, they could still hop on a bicycle for part of the distance, to reach a transit stop or carpool meeting point, said Kathleen Wilker, who is helping co-ordinate Bike to Work month with the city on behalf of EnviroCentre. The average commute in Ottawa is 7.8 kilometres and a third of workers travel less than five kilometres to work, but only two per cent of people commute by bicycle. Bike to Work month is an effort to promote and encourage cycling as an active and efficient mode of commuting. It’s not only healthier for individuals who bike, it’s healthier for the planet, according to EnviroCentre. If people who could bike to work in 30 minutes or less chose that mode most of the time, it would save an estimated 13.1 million vehicle kilometres each year. As part of the month-long event, Right Bike, an enterprise of the Causeway Work Centre, will offer bicycle safety checks in a trailer positioned on Marion Dewar Plaza in front of city hall every day from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. Mechanics will offer a maintenance check and can pump tires and tighten chains, as well as advise on what other maintenance should be performed. Individuals or workplace teams that sign up for the Bike to Work month “pedal to win” pledge have a chance to win prizes. Prizes for teams include: • Bike pumps from Bushtukah • 30 passes to Camp Fortune’s Aerial Park • Dinner for 10 at the Royal Oak of your choice Prizes for individuals include: • MEC Midtown Bike • A selection of Bell helmets from Fresh Air Experience • A cycle chic professional photo shoot for you and your bike from Ottawa Velo Vogue Encouraging employees to bike to work makes sense for businesses, according to EnviroCentre. Companies spend an average of $750 per employee annually to provide a free parking space. Employees at workplaces that implement fitness programs take 27 per cent fewer sick days. Encouraging biking is also a way to attract young talent, according to EnviroCentre. Cycling is becoming the transportation mode of choice for more and more people, particular-

The new bikes are part of an expansion of the free bikesharing service that was highlighted at the kick-off for Bike to Work month May 1. ly millennials who are rejecting car ownership in higher numbers, so providing a workplace that caters to cycling commuters is a way to attract those young workers. For workplaces where employees sometimes need to drive during the day, carpooling or access to Vrtucar car share or Bixi bicycle sharing service could meet those needs. Information on what workplaces can do to encourage and help employees start cycling to work is available at biketoworkottawa.com, by emailing transport@envirocentre.ca or by calling 613-656-0100 ext. 120. That website, as well as the EnviroCentre Facebook and Twitter pages, will be updated with information about Bike to Work month events throughout May.

Epic ride on the divide adam.kveton@metroland.com

News - A Queensway Carleton employee is using his adventurous spirit to raise funds for the hospital by biking one of the toughest routes in North America by himself. Philip Chen, a respiratory therapist at the hospital and adventure and bicycling enthusiast, embarked on his 4,022-kilometre trip April

27, but not before stopping by the hospital to talk a bit about his journey with fellow employees on April 24. Queensway Carleton employees and members of the hospital’s foundation wished Chen a safe trip after quizzing him on where the ride would take him and how he could fit all of his gear and food into a handful of small bags on his bicycle. Chen, dressed in the cycling outfit he will use for

the 43-day trip, explained that he will be taking the Great Divide Mountain Bike Route, starting in Antelope Wells, New Mexico. The route follows the Rocky Mountains, meaning 61,000 metres worth of climbing and descending for Chen through small, rural towns and up to B.C. “This is most definitely my longest trip,” said Chen, adding that he is pretty clear on what will be the hardest parts of the ride. The climbing, especially with the large-tread tires his bike is outfitted with, will be gruelling. Making the ride by himself will also make it harder psychologically, and then waking up every day to another exhausting challenge will be a test of will. That’s not to mention the extremes in weather, as he will be biking through areas that still have snow on the ground and then through intense heat. Then there is the wildlife to contend with. But all those things are part of what he is looking forward to. Trips like this

are “re-invigorating,” he said, having combined his love of hiking, camping and biking before in Cuba and eastern Ontario. The cause he is biking for is also a worthy one, he said. Speaking with Queensway Carleton Hospital Foundation staff while planning the ride, Chen said, “I found out that they were focusing on staff education right now, which is right in line with what I would like to raise funds for.” Chen has a goal of $1,500 which would go into a fund that hospital employees can apply for. A donation page has been set up through www.crazyguyonabike. com/thejimmyproject where Chen will also post updates on his trip. As a parting comment, the director of the foundation, Judith Scott, said, “The fundraiser in me is really excited about the work Philip is doing for the hospital. “But the mom in me says, ‘Eat right, get lots of sleep and stay away from bears.’”

Kanata Sailing Club offering expanded junior sailing program Club strikes new partnership with Girl Guides Adam Kveton adam.kveton@metroland.com

Community - The Kanata Sailing Club is encouraging more children to experience life on the water by offering its biggest program yet through partnerships with the YMCA and Girl Guides of Canada. The club hosted an open house May 3, signalling the start of the sailing season. The club is experiencing a rise in popularity, as participation seems to remain tied to the economy, said the club’s commodore, Mike

Thompson. The idea that sailing is a sport for the rich is still around, said Thompson, and it often poses a problem for the club to attract more members. “If you ever mention that you own a boat, instantly a 60-foot yacht pops into people’s mind where you are drinking champagne and eating grey poupon on the deck,” said Thompson. “You know, that’s just not what’s going on.” One of the club’s main goals in its over 30 years in existence has been to remain affordable, which continues to be the case, said Thompson. “It’s less expensive to sail in Kanata than it would be to cross country ski for the winter,” he said. The club has also been introducing more and more

children to sailing, with a partnership with the YMCA that grows every year. “We’ve got the biggest program with the Y going that we’ve ever had this year and probably next year we will be bigger again,” said Thompson. For the past four years, the club has partnered with the YMCA, offering day camps in July and August. The program began as a two-week endeavour, but has now grown to four weeks. Thompson hopes to expand it still more, to run throughout all of July and August. “We would have to have more instructors in place, and we would probably have to have a bigger fleet,” he said. The club is starting a new partnership with the Girl Guides of Canada, offering the same program the club offers to the YMCA, called R0012712167

Can Sail 1. “Basically the program is about getting comfortable with the boat, learning how to rig it, getting out on the water, not being afraid if a little bit of water goes over the side and getting it to go where you want to go, but mostly it’s just about having a great time,” said Thompson. However, the club is considering offering the more advanced Can Sail 2 program for teens and pre-teens, and hopes to gauge the public’s interest. “That’s targeted towards actually making you a competent sailor where you can actually go out in a boat by yourself, be the skipper, and have a great day on the water,” said Thompson. He hopes to offer that program to youths who have already gone through the Can Sail 1 course and want to continue on. “We definitely want to probe the interest in the community to find out how much interest would be on that,” he said.

Cadets raise money in tag day draw Squadron one of the organization to benefit from changes to Senators 50/50 draw Community – The Arnprior-based 2360 1st Air Defence Regiment (Lanark and Renfrew Scottish) Royal Canadian Artillery Army Cadet Corps have had a couple of successful fundraisers recently. Cadet Liaison officer Patrick Simmonds reports that Mark and Barb Segstro helped to organized the squadron to be a part of the Sens Foundation 50/50 ticket sales. The army cadets were able to raise an impressive $4,075 for the Corps.

Committee members and cadets were great in helping to raise this amount, say Simmonds. Four committee members on the last day (April 12) were able to bring in $350 for the Corps alone. The army cadets Tag day (May 2-3) was a success as well. The cadets were able to bring in $3,519, thanks to about 14 or so cadets, the drivers and all the support staff participating in the event. Simmonds also thanked the stores

that allowed the cadets to sell the tags there. Meanwhile, the Corps Commanding Officer Capt. Rob Dufour has been diligently searching for a trailer to be a cadet office. Finally earlier this year he was successful, reports Simmonds. “We are now proud owners of our own trailer that can be used for the committee meetings and to store all our equipment and files. This ‘office’ is up and running with phone and Internet.”

Ontario Seniors Games hockey teams hold challenge game Paul Allen

Sports - The Ontario Senior Games Association District 7, Ottawa West, held an exhibition hockey game May 2 at Friel Arena in Orleans between their 55+ and 65+ hockey teams. Both teams are preparing to represent Ottawa West at the 2015 Ontario 55 + Winter games Feb. 17-19 in Haliburton County. This was an excellent opportunity for both teams to display their talents and to get to know each other both on and off the ice. The younger 55+ team nipped the 65+ team 3-0 in the game that featured some

excellent goaltending by both teams. The 65+ team rep Peter Whitaker noted that this friendly competition was the ďŹ rst time District 7’s teams have met on the ice. The 55+ team rep Glenn Andrews was pleased to have the opportunity to play the 65+ team and was impressed by their goaltending and desire to win battles along the boards. Ontario Power Generation, a passionate sponsor of the Ontario Senior Games, had Matthew Mulvihill on hand for the game. District 7, Ottawa West, co-ordinator Roger Huestis took the opportunity to thank Mulvihill and OPG

for their continued support. Although hockey is a passionate sport among seniors with the competitive edge, the Ontario Senior Games Association provides multiple activities for those 55+ seniors who wish

to become members of this active organization. District 7 and the other 40 districts in Ontario are actively looking for new members. Summer activities include card games such as euchre,

cribbage and contract bridge as well as both indoor and outdoor activities such as 5-pin bowling, pickle ball, darts, tennis, lawn bowling, horseshoes, golf, walking and swimming. Winter activities include vol-

leyball, hockey, curling, 10-pin bowling, skiing, badminton and many others. For more information, e-mail Roger Huestis sportinglylg@ gmail.com or call 613-8224539.

Marathon organizers expect spike in economic spinoffs Excitement Record number of runners set to participate in race weekend events Erin McCracken erin.mccracken@metroland.com

News - Downtown Ottawa will transform into a sea of running shoes this weekend, which is good news for local businesses. A full lineup of road races on May 24 and 25 is expected to draw nearly 48,000 runners, about 4,000 more than last year. With such a large influx of participants at Tamarack Ottawa Race Weekend events, organizers are expecting that to translate into a boost in eco-

nomic spinoffs for the city. “You can walk into any hotel in Ottawa and try to get a hotel room on Saturday night,” said race director John Halvorsen. “It’s not going to work out. “My understanding is the Chateau Laurier has a waiting list of over 60 people trying to get in there,” he said. “So it’s great that way for the city.” A study done on the 2012 race weekend, which drew 42,000 runners, revealed the running events had produced an estimated $28million windfall for the capital. No data is available from last year’s race weekend, but organizers are hoping a partial study on the upcoming race weekend, billed as Canada’s largest multi-day running event, will show an upswing in the economic tally, Halvorsen said. “So it’s going to grow at least another 10 per cent” he said. “I’m

certainly expecting it’s over $30 (million).” Organizers are optimistic the momentum will continue. “Hopefully it can stay as large as it is and we continue to have an economic impact,” the director said. While few Canadian marathons sell out, all available race bibs for the Scotiabank Ottawa Marathon on May 25 were snapped up in January. This year, the marathon will see 7,100 registrations, while just more than 6,000 registered for last year’s race. The half-marathon, which also kicks off May 25, sold out in November with 13,300 registrants, two months earlier than the year before, which netted 500 fewer entries. This year’s marathon is proving to be extremely popular, likely because some participants are drawn

to the uniqueness of completing the 40th running of the marathon, while others have registered because they enjoy running in this city, particularly because of its clean air, said Halvorsen. “So we’re sort of curious to see if that trend is going to continue,” he said of the boost in participants. Still, despite people jockeying for race bibs, organizers are not planning on growing the races much larger in the coming years. “We’re sort of hitting the point now where we’re limited by the spaces that we have in the startfinish, rather than on the courses,” Halvorsen said. For details on the course routes, please visit runottawa.ca. What’s happening: The 10-, five- and two-kilometre races will be held May 24. The marathon, half-marathon, wheelchair marathon and kids’ marathon take place May 25.

NEW DEVELOPMENT IN ARNPRIOR

mounts for marathon volunteer Erin McCracken erin.mccracken@metroland.com

News - Debby Whately has never run a marathon in her life, yet every year like clockwork she dedicates an entire weekend to ensuring thousands of runners have the race of their lives. As the Tamarack Ottawa Race Weekend draws closer on May 24 and 25, Whately is gearing up to join about 2,000 other volunteers, who are instrumental in ensuring the event goes off as planned. This will be Whately’s 32nd Ottawa Marathon weekend. “I recognize that there’s lot of volunteers involved in my sports, so this is my way of paying back,” said Whately, who competes with the Sportchicks Dragon Boat Team at the international level. Over the years, she has also competed in masters swimming and touch football, which both relied on volunteers. This year, she’ll be working along the race route on May 25, from 3 to about 9 p.m. The next day, she will be up early and heading to the course for a 6 a.m. start, before the Scotiabank Ottawa Marathon gets underway at 7 a.m. Her longtime involvement is thanks to a chance encounter with a friend she ran into at Carleton University in 1983, who asked if she was doing anything the following day. “I wasn’t doing anything,” Whately said. Her friend asked if she would like to help out during the race weekend, which drew about 1,000 that year to the university campus where the startfinish line used to be. Whately pitched in, and hasn’t missed a race since. She also initially felt inspired to help, in part, because of a man she was dating at the time – who would later become her husband. “At the time he said he was running the marathon, and I said, ‘Oh, maybe I’ll see you at the finish line,” Whately said with a smile, adding her husband has run both the marathon and halfmarathon twice over the years. The medical laboratory technologist at the Regional Virology Laboratory based out of the Children’s Hospital of Eastern Ontario has seen the event change and grow by leaps and bounds over the years. The start-finish line has since been moved from Carleton to downtown, and two-, five- and 10-kilometre races have been added, and, at one time, the marathon included an inline skate. The number of runners started to climb when shorter children-friendly course distances were added in the mid-90s, said Whately. “It made it appealing to all different people,” she said.

Sports - More than 170 runners from four Arnprior schools took part in the annual Optimist Fitzroy over the Carp Cross Country Run on May 12. The students – from John XXIII Catholic, St. Joseph’s Arnprior, Walter Zadow Public and McNab Public schools – ran various-length tracks at Fitzroy Provincial Park, competing for top spots in the annual event. St. Joseph’s came out on top with two trophies for intermediate boys and girls and five podium finishes: two golds and three bronze. Walter Zadow had one first-place finish and three silvers. John XXIII took home the trophy for junior girls as well as a first and a third place, while McNab grabbed a silver spot and the trophy for junior boys. No schools from West Carleton competed at the event due to a timing conflict.

derbird Sports Centre in Carp, is the largest soccer club in the Ottawa area and the second largest in the country with more than 7,000

players. Kiss has worked with the West Ottawa Soccer Club since it was formed in 2010 – the result of a merger of the former Kanata and Goulbourn clubs, as well as portions of those in West Carleton – and has been a consistent presence in the local soccer community all her life, said CEO Bjorn Osieck. “She’s a local girl, she’s incredibly humble,” he said. “I like to call her

a hometown heroine. She’s deeply rooted in this community.” He added that with her experience on and off the field, many players look up to her. Kiss has played 75 international matches with the Canadian team, pro-soccer in Europe, and has two World Cup matches under her cleats. “The skill combination of her rich playing experience and coaching experience … made her the perfect candidate to be put into this leadership position,” said Osieck. “She has a lot on on-field and off-field responsibilities. It’s an interesting balance for her.” Kiss’ new duties will include the technical leadership of the club and overseeing player curriculum and development, as well as that of the hundreds of coaches with WOSC, Osieck said. On top of that, she will continue as head coach of the Ontario Player Development League under-13 girls

team and the U9 girls team. The plan is to “revolutionize the pathway for player development” said Kiss. In March, the club announced it was partnering with the Ottawa Fury FC and the following month, Capital United FC entered into an affiliation agreement with the WOSC. “Partnering with key groups like the Ottawa Fury FC and Capital United FC, I am convinced we will continue to grow,” said Kiss. Long-term player development is a feature component of training for WOSC, with a focus on skills such as balance, teamwork, co-ordination, running, passing and kicking. “The West Ottawa Soccer Club continues its dramatic transformation, which began at time of our merger,” said club president Brian Mason. “Our club is proud to have been able to secure the home-grown leadership qualities that Kristina has developed over a football lifetime.”

Soccer clubs announce affiliation Jessica Cunha jessica.cunha@metroland.com

Sports - Two Ottawa soccer clubs have joined forces to enhance player and coaching development for both groups. The West Ottawa Soccer Club and the Capital United Football Club announced their official affiliation to allow for controlled player movement between the two groups. “It’s one community club to another,” said Bjorn Osieck, CEO of the west Ottawa club. “Cap U has been very successful over the life of their club. “They have very successful teams and a coaching staff.” The affiliation will see players eligible for the WOSC 2000 L3 girls team also able to join Cap U’s 2000 U14 girls team, which competes in the Ontario Youth Soccer League. As well, Cap U players also registered for the WOSC’s new Ontario Player Development League U13 boys team. “Being able to connect with Cap U and their rich history of success gives us a boost for what we do,” said Osieck, about are opportunities for exchanges to play at the highest youth level. “That puts us on a different stage.” Both clubs’ technical leaders – which includes recently-appointed Canadian international soccer player Kristina Kiss, and Scottish league champion David Hannah with WOSC, and Traian Mateas and Raz El-Asmar on Cap U’s side – will be forming “an expanded football brain trust” according to both groups to develop best coaching practices. “For years, we had positive relations with WOSC and now the time seemed right to take our collaboration to a new level,” said Cap U president Kumar Saha. “Empowering our technical minds to put the right long term player development framework in place for our players and also pass that knowledge on in a coaching education setting to our up-and-coming coaches will, indeed, be a critical success factor for us.” Osieck added there is still an opportunity to join the WOSC this season. “We’re just very excited about all the programs and the updated leadership that we have,” he said. The WOSC, located at the Thunderbird Sports Centre in Carp, is the largest soccer club in the Ottawa area and the second largest in the country with more than 7,000 players. It was formed in 2010 as the result of a merger of the former Kanata and Goulbourn clubs, as well as portions of those in West Carleton. For more information, visit wosc. com. Cap U, based in the east end of Ottawa, is part of an international soccer family with many of its coaches and members from around the world. The small club was formed in 1999 and provides its members with international exchange opportunities. For more information, visit fccapitalunited.com.

Canadians injured in Afghanistan war arrive for Soldier On relay Memory of friends lost on patrol drives Ottawa soldier Adam Kveton adam.kveton@metroland.com

News - Nineteen injured participants of the Afghanistan war arrived at the Royal Canadian Legion Dominion Command in Kanata on May 7, finishing up the fourth day of the Soldier On Afghanistan Relay. The group, composed of 16 military members, two RCMP members and one civilian government employee, began the relay in Trenton and finished on May 9 on Parliament Hill. But not before being greeted by legion members, family, friends and other members of the public in Kanata. All 19 participants of the relay were injured during the war effort in Afghanistan, though not all as soldiers. They arrived having overcome countless obstacles – some of which are part of the relay, and some that have become a part of life. Scars and missing limbs start to tell the story of what several of the relay runners have gone through, while others’ injuries are less visible. Sgt. Dan Matthews is one

of those last few, invisibly injured by their experience in combat. He came home with post traumatic stress disorder, like many others. But just because he has the same injury as some of the other relay runners does not mean they are going through the same thing, he said. “It’s really different for each person,” he said of his experience running the relay. “For me, I’ve been carrying the memories of two friends that I lost on a patrol that I was on,” said Matthews. “Along the way I’ve had them in my head saying, ‘Just put one foot in front of the other to get home. Get your ass home.’” For Matthews, that’s in Ottawa’s east end. While the Soldier On relay is supposed to do a lot of things like provide a healing process, give civilians a chance to show their gratitude and put a spotlight on Canadians injured in war, Matthews’ goal for the relay is simple. “I’m just trying to get home, and bring a few friends along the way,” he said. Matthews was diagnosed

with PTSD in 2003 – an injury he sustained while out on patrol in Kabul that same year, he said. During a two-vehicle patrol in unarmoured Iltis Jeeps, Matthews’ section commanders’ vehicle drove over a double stack of anti-tank mines. Sgt. Robert Short and Matthews’ friend, Cpl. Robby Beerenfenger, died in the explosion. They were the first Canadians to be killed by enemy fire in Afghanistan. “At the time we didn’t really know that they were dead, so me and my Master Cpl. Jay Hamilton plodded out into two unknown mine fields to try and save them,” said Matthews. “We were able to save the driver, T.J. Sterling.” Matthews didn’t think anything of his actions at the time. “I was just shutting down and doing what I was trained to do,” he said. But with sleepless nights and nightmares pursuing him back in Canada, Matthews’ wife suggested he should get some help. “I’ve had demons and everything else that I’ve had to

Now, Matthews hopes the relay finish line will signal the end of a chapter in his life.

“It’s the start for me to recreate myself as I move into civilian life,” he said, intending to be medically released from the military. “I’m looking at going back to school at Algonquin Col-

lege in September to do a two-year diploma in photography,” he said. With his track laid out for him, Matthews said he hopes to recreate his life and truly be home again.

Local minister was a bit like Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde Keep the Lifestyle - The minister, I thought, was like he was two different people. I had an unbelievable fear of him when he was in church delivering what seemed to be an endless sermon with words that were completely above my head. I had no idea what he was talking about, and when we left the service to go to our Sunday school class, I lived in dread that the Sunday school teacher would ask me what I had learned that day from the sermon. Thankfully she was high on the Beatitudes and the Psalms, and that was usually what our lesson was about. The minister was a whale of a man, and when he walked down the middle of the church to get to the pulpit, his shoes squeaked like fury, which Emerson said meant they hadn’t been paid for. How he knew that bit of information was beyond me. By the time the minister had climbed into the pulpit, which was a round carved wood affair high above the pews, he was panting like he was going to take his last breath, and winter and summer, the sweat poured off his face in little rivulets. He frowned a lot, and I always thought he was angry with the lot of us, or that he knew that some of us had committed some horrible sin. And to emphasise a point, he pounded the rail of the pulpit with his bible that I was sure would one day fly out

MARY COOK Memories of his hand and hit me square on the head since we sat in the front pew, a few feet away. His wife, whom Mother said was a saint ... a pure saint, sat ramrod straight, looking neither left nor right. Through perfect planning, Sunday school always ended at the exact time the last hymn was being sung in the church. Then we children marched back into the church, standing at the door where we were expected to shake hands with the minister. This scared the living starch out of me, convinced that he could read my mind and he would know every evil thought I had ever had in my head about bad Marguirite, and know ever sin I had ever committed. I couldn’t wait to get in the buggy and get back home to the farm. And often then, I would see another side to our minister. I wasn’t sure if it was part of his duties as our spiritual leader, or if he just liked a good meal occasionally, but we could always count on a pastoral visit at least once every two weeks when the summer weather came.

He didn’t own a car, but he did have a buggy, and an old nag of a horse that was much like our poor old Harry with the heaves. You could have walked in our lane faster than the minister’s horse pulling the buggy. And he always came at our dinner time at the noon hour. Mother would pump his hand, welcome him in, and my sister Audrey, without even being asked, would scrunch up the plates on the table, and make room for another place. Mother made no effort to tidy things up, or make the meal more fancy. We didn’t even get out the dishes that had come in puffed wheat. The only change was Mother sat between my sister Audrey and me, leaving the end of the table for the Minister. Father, of course, sat where he always did, at the other end. And instead of Father saying Grace, the minister, on Mother’s invitation said the blessing, which was long and purposeful. Then I would see an entirely different man from the one I saw in the Lutheran church on Sunday. He and Father told jokes, slapping the table with the palm of their hands, and all the time, he was amply lading his plate with seconds and even third helpings of everything before him, which pleased Mother beyond words. Even a visitor the stature of the minister didn’t stop Father from

pouring out his tea into his saucer to cool it off, and then drinking it. And as soon as the meal was over, Father got up from the table, minister or not, and headed back out to the fields. Always, I knew what was going to happen next. Audrey would be sent to the smoke house and the chicken coop. She would come back with a roast and a link or two of sausages, and a small basket of fresh eggs. Everett would, without asking, have cornered a fowl, pushed it squawking into a grain sack, and everything would be put in the minister’s buggy. The minister would pump Mother’s hand, ruffle my hair, tell Audrey again how she was growing into a fine young woman, and my three brothers that he would see them in church, and then with great effort he would climb into the buggy, and the old horse without any direction from his owner, would turn in the yard and head out the lane. Audrey and I would help Mother redd up the kitchen and she would tell us how poor the minister was, and how little he was paid, and that often he and his wife didn’t have enough money to buy food, and how they would rely on the generosity of the members of the Lutheran church to survive. I knew the Depression was all around us, but I didn’t know anyone out in the country who didn’t have enough food for their table. I would watch the buggy disappear into the farthest reaches of the lane, and I would think again how the minister was like two different people. The stern, no-nonsense man in the pulpit on a Sunday, and then there was the man who could laugh and mingle with the common folk around a kitchen table.

Wheels Turning launched Liz Wall Seniors at Home

Lifestyle – A total of 12,260 and counting. That is how many trips, since Feb. 4, 2008, that have been provided to our citizens whose independence relies on the availability of the Para Transit Care Coach service provided by Arnprior-Braeside-McNab Seniors at Home Program (ABMSH). “As we launch our 2014 ‘Yellow Envelope Mail-Out Keep the Wheels Turning’ campaign in support of our Care Coach, your continued generosity is necessary to make sure this essential service remains active and viable in our community,” said ABMSH executive director Dennis Harrington. The ABMSH Para Transit Care Coach is the only specialized transportation service available for persons, of all ages, living within the Town of Arnprior and the Township of McNabBraeside. As the need expands, so do the areas of coverage. Along with residents of Arnprior and McNab-Braeside, the service is offered and available to the residents of Ottawa’s West Carleton including Fitzroy Harbour, Kinburn, Woodlawn, Constance Bay and Dunrobin. Other areas the Care Coach has travelled to include Pakenham, Almonte, Ottawa, Renfrew, Pembroke and North Bay. “The needs of the client come first. The destination is secondary,” expressed Harrington. In 2013 the goal for the ‘Yellow Envelope Keep the Wheels Turning Campaign’ was $30,000. That goal was reached and then some. At the end of the campaign $40,035 was pledged. This year the goal, due to a slight increase in expenses is $32,000. The total operating cost per year for the Para Transit Care coach is as follows: wages: $28,371.29; fuel: $5,800.52; insurance: $1,571; license: $90; communications: $1,099.53; and maintenance: $4,876.08. Right now in our communities, seniors and individuals of all ages with special needs require the use of the Para Transit Care Coach. Every household within the Town of Arnprior, Township of McNab-Braeside, Fitzroy Harbour, Woodlawn, Constance Bay, Dunrobin and Kinburn will receive our letter in the bright yellow envelope requesting your financial contributions. Upon viewing please consider a donation, then return your donation in this supplied return-envelope either by mail or drop off at our office Unit 1, 106 McGonigal St. West, Arnprior, On. K7S 1M4. Please make your cheque payable to ‘ABM Seniors at Home’. Master Card and Visa donations can be made by calling 613-622-CARE (2273) between 8:30 a.m. and 4:30 p.m. Monday to Friday.

Organic co-op receives local food grant News – While the Ontario Natural Food Coop hosted its annual meeting April 26, Ontario Premier Kathleen Wynne announced that he Cooperative was one of the lucky recipients of a grant from the Local Food Fund. The Ontario Natural Food Co-op has been the incubator and umbrella supporting the Local Organic Food Co-ops (LOFC) Network for the past three years, through which food and farm co-ops across the province have been supported in their emergence and development. In the last three years, the Network has expanded from about 20 to nearly 70 co-operative food enterprises, ranging from farms and distributors to retailers and cafés. “We see co-operatives playing a vital role in a more local, sustainable food economy,” said Ontario Natural Food Co-op general manager Randy Whitteker. “We’re very happy to be partnering with the province to support local food co-ops.” The funding will help four regional co-operative lead organizations (members of the LOFC Network) host a series of forums on local organic food co-operative development and expand their capacity as regional food hubs through targeted business planning, leadership and governance

training. The co-operative leads include the Ottawa Valley Food Co-op (OVFC). The OVFC is a collaborative of farmers, market gardeners, producers and consumers. It envisions a local, sustainable food system, which is economically viable for producers and provides fresh, healthy food and products to consumers. Monthly on-line ordering of local food is distributed to a variety of locations across Renfrew County and Ottawa. Visit http://www.ovfc.ca. Additionally, the funding will support the LOFC Network in the redevelopment of its business and strategic plan, as well as the strengthening of regional food-based economies as ONFC continues to explore local sources of local foods for its private label brand. The LOFC Network prides itself on its ability to offer its members education and training, networking, and capacity building opportunities, and looks forward to making use of the Local Food Fund grant as an opportunity to showcase a co-operative approach to developing resilient local food systems by cultivating co-operative food hubs as regional centres of excellence.

The big cheese of festivals set for this June 7-8 Media launch includes Canada’s cheese of the year Derek Dunn derek.dunn@metroland.com

News – A little taste of the biggest cheese festival in Canada was served up recently at a Westboro restaurant. Gathered together at Juniper Kitchen & Wine Bar for the media launch of the fourth annual Great Canadian Cheese Festival were artisanal food makers, sommeliers, and gastronomical connoisseurs of all varieties. All were sipping and munching on samples, talking about the June 7 and 8 festival in Prince Edward County. But it was the surprise guest that stole the May 14 show. Last year was the first time the Cheese of the Year award was offered at the Picton festival. It was determined by a panel of well-trained and discriminating judges. The winner was Marie-Claude Harvey’s ‘Le Baluchon’. “I got a lot out of it: a lot of sales!” said Harvey, after being introduced to the crowd of about 50. “But seriously, it did make a difference for us, for sure.” Produced at her Quebec farm, Harvey’s Fromagerie FX Pichet cow’s milk cheese was among four available at the event, along with artisanal breads, sausages, wines and beers. According to event organizer Deb-

Local-cheese retailer Dave Neil and event organizer Debbie Trenholm of Savvy Company share a laugh during the promotion of Canada’s largest cheese festival. Trenholm lives in Carp. Le Baluchon, a cow’s milk based cheese, was named cheese of the year at last year’s Great Canadian Cheese Festival, held annually in Prince Edward County.

Cheese of the year winner Marie-Claude Harvey takes the microphone after cheese festival organizer Georgs Kolensnikovs raves about her product to those gathered for the media launch. bie Trenholm of Savvy Company, a business that organizes wine events and tours, Ottawans love all things cheese related. “There are loads of cheese lovers here,” said the Carp resident. “A lot of people from Ottawa go to the festival every year, ever since it started.” Demand has led to more

stores like Serious Cheese in Kanata, Nicastro’s Italian Food Emporium, and Piggy Market – an artisan delicatessen and craft butchers just down the road from Juniper. Owner Dave Neil said cheese making is “pretty big” in the nation’s capital, largely thanks to cultural diversity. “People are making the

New enu M ng i r Sp

cheese they grew up with in their own country. It’s quite a palate,” Neil said. “At my store we only sell Ontario and Quebec cheese. There is enough here and we need to support and make those prosper.” His current favourite? Le Gredes Champs. Juniper chef Norm Aitken agrees that supporting local food makers and growing the number of locavores is key. He was milling about serving hor d’oeuvres like Acadian sturgeon caviar on cheese and cucumber. He’s also a big fan of cheese. “The focus of my world is food, and cheese plays a big part in that,” said Aitken. “We have it here at our doorstep and we need to use it.” At 125 booths, the biggest cheese show is also one of the biggest artisan foods markets in Ontario. Situated in Prince Edward Country, renowned for spectacular landscapes, beaches, and wineries, tickets for the show are available at cheesefestival.ca.
