News – Authorities found no criminal wrong-doing in a tragic car crash that claimed the lives of a local mother and son last winter.

Donna and Daron Graves of Fitzroy Harbour went missing Thursday, Jan. 17 after their regular weekly outing to play pool at The Prior Sports Bar in Arnprior. The two, 61 and 29 years old respectively, were heading home in their newer black 2013 Dodge Dart.

It wasn’t until three days later members of the Ottawa police marine dive unit suspected a vehicle went through the ice beside the Quyon Ferry, at the end of Ferry Road, within metres of the family home.

When the bodies were recovered, police said autopsy and toxicology examinations would be conducted.

Those reports take months to complete even in cases where a crime is not suspected. They take much longer in other cases.

rights, he said he spoke with Hudak a month or so ago and was encouraged to lobby for this post.

“We did not have a critic for democratic and senate reform provincially,” MacLaren said, adding the post is held federally by Nepean-Carleton Conservative MP Pierre Poilievre.

“I know him (Poilievre) well. I work well with him. He and I are like minded and work well together,” MacLaren

Const. Chuck Benoit said the reports will not be released to the public, and that no charges will be laid.

“In this matter, from our side there are no charges being laid,” Benoit said.

“We have completed our investigation and will not be releasing any reports publicly.”

MacLaren speaks about the Carp landfill in legistlature Continued from front page

said. “I’m looking forward to it (critic appointment). It is something a little different for me.”

The local MPP speculated senate reform won’t likely include abolishment of the senate and he, like many others, is eagerly awaiting the Supreme Court of Canada’s response to the five questions submitted by the federal government regarding what the feds can do with senate changes.

“We are looking at more modest change – following Alberta and having elected senators in Ontario,” MacLaren said, noting Prime Minster Stephen Harper has said he would recognize elected senators from Alberta.

MacLaren said another change that might be considered is shortening the term for senators.

A written opinion on the feds senate questions should be forthcoming in the new year.

Along with MacLaren, other area MPPs receiving critic posts include NepeanCarleton Lisa MacLeod who is the Tories new energy critic and Stormont-Dundas-SouthGlengarry MP Jim McDonell who has been name the critic for municipal affairs and housing.

Renfrew-Nipissing-Pembroke MPP John Yakabuski carries on as the party’s chief whip and Leeds-Grenville MPP Steve Clark will be the

deputy house leader.

LANDFILL COMMENTS On the same day his critic appointment was announced, MacLaren rose in the legislature to speak on the subject of the Carp Road landfill.

Attention is once again focused on the landfill in the wake of the provincial Ministry of the Environment’s approval of the Environmental Assessment (EA) allowing for a new landfill at the Carp site to proceed. The Coalition of Citizen Groups is hoping to raise funds to seek a judicial review of the ministry’s decision.

In his statement, MacLaren vocalized his support for allowing municipalities the power to choose how they deal with waste and for recycling and incineration.

“A plan to build a new landfill beside the old landfill has caused much discussion on the pros and cons of landfills in general and the Carp landfill in particular. It is a contentious issue. Nobody wants a landfill in their backyard,” he said. “Six concerned people in my riding formed a committee to research, discuss and write a report with a conceptual plan on how to best manage the disposal of waste in the province of Ontario.”

That committee included MacLaren, Carleton Landowners Association presi-

dent Shirley Dolan and even Coalition of Citizen Groups member Harold Moore and others.

“In the report, the committee recommends Ontario reduce, reuse, recycle and recover. This includes composting, recycling and incineration. Incineration produces energy that can be used.

Composting and recycling would be done by the private sector without government subsidies,” MacLaren told the legislature. “The profit would come from the market place.

Materials that are not composted or recycled would be incinerated.

“The report also indentifies that residential and ICI waste should be combined into one class of waste and that the management of all waste should fall under municipal jurisdiction. That way municipalities would have the freedom to choose landfill or incineration. This would simplify the management of waste,” the MPP concluded.

In a separate interview, MacLaren said he has toured incineration facilities in Durham Region and Syracuse, N.Y. and believes incineration can work.

“I really believe this is the way to go,” he said.

While he admitted “we can’t outlaw landfills,” he said he believes giving municipalities the choice over how to deal with waste will make everyone take responsibility for their garbage.

Case closed in deaths Continued from front

Alcohol and Gaming Commission of Ontario (AGCO) spokesman Ab Campion confirmed The Prior Sports Bar isn’t fac-

ing any charges in this case.

The AGCO considers laying charges if an establishment is found to have served a patron above the legal limit.

Writer draws attention to emerging genre Accomplished graphic novelist speaks to high school students Derek Dunn derek.dunn@metroland.com

Arts – A graphic novelist from Winnipeg spoke about his art in six Ottawa locations, including a local library.

David Alexander Robertson, 35, author of the Seven Generations series and several more graphic novels, discussed the creative process behind the avant-garde literary technique at the Carp branch of the Ottawa Public Library Oct. 1. Made popular by TV and movies such as

Watchmen – taken from a graphic novel – the genre is particularly influential with young people. About 20 West Carleton Secondary School students from two English classes sat in and asked questions.

“You find time to write when you find time to write,” said the husband and father of four little ones.

In youth he was similar to many boys in that he preferred comics to text books, and would have appreciated a dovetailing of the two.

Robertson’s father was Swampy Cree, but didn’t

play much of a role in his life until age 13. The lack of aboriginal culture during those early years informs his art today, which includes poetry, short stories, and television scripts.

The graphic novels, where Roberston has found much critical success, are steeped in “historical fiction” that explores – often painful - native issues.

Graphic novels, unlike comics, delve into difficult topics and explore them more deeply.

They tell a complete story, unlike the episodic style of comics. The comic strip dates back to 1837. The first graphic novel was A Contract with God and Other Tenement Stories by Will Eisner in 1978.

Graphic novels are often written similar to script writing for stage or screen: a synopsis, then panel 1, line 1, text, image description; panel 2, line 1, text, image description, and so on. Robertson said 60 pages of script will be stripped back for a 30 page novel. He sends the script to an illustrator who completes the art and sends it back.

Robertson and his publisher will go through each page, ex-

amining and collaborating over about a six month period.

It is similar to the DC Comics format, but the opposite of Marvel where the art is done first and the text added later.

THE STORY IS ALL

Before all that, though, is the all-important story idea. It is the story that drives both text and art, Robertson said. Every word, every colour and image within the panels must contribute to the story. Even the space between panels – leaps in the story that are left to the reader’s imagination – are carefully constructed.

And the choices made must flow from that core.

“All these decisions are almost done in tandem with one another,” he said. “You do it not because it looks cool, but because it serves a purpose.”

He shared some literary terms with the students, including foreshadowing, juxtaposition and others. So the genre shares many techniques used in literature. Yet there are some fundamental differences. Robertson, for instance, writes the story as

Winnipeg writer David Alexander Robertson shares insights on the graphic novel writing process with a group West Carleton Secondary students. He gave similar presentations recently at five other Ottawa locations. if he were holding a camera. He visualizes scenes perhaps more vividly than a strictly prose writer would.

“It’s the most difficult form of writing I’ve done,” he said.

Asked after the talk if laying down rules and exposing the creative process won’t scare off beginners, Robertson said when readers understand the thoughtprocess behind graphic novels and other art forms a greater appreciation will follow. He added newcomers won’t be overwhelmed if they get the basics.

Student Kyle Findlay has an |

West Carleton high school in line for expansion Derek Dunn derek.dunn@metroland.com

News – West Carleton Secondary School finds out on Oct. 22 if its multi-million expansion is a go or a no with the board.

Growth in Morgan’s Grant and Shirley’s Brook are adding pressure to West Carleton’s only high school.

Enrollment is at about 1,400 now, and expected to jump by a few hundred more over the coming years.

The Ottawa-Carleton District School Board is tracking growth trends. Two years ago the board submitted 16 projects to the province for possible funding. Eight were granted for a record $49 million.

Among the remaining eight – sitting at number 4 on the priority list - was a $6.4 million expansion to West.

Rural West Trustee Lynn Scott isn’t concerned the Ministry of Education will rejected the funding requests on the basis that a record amount was approved last year. She pointed to the well and septic upgrades down this past summer at the school as proof of the board’s confidence.

There is no timeline on when the

ects sent to the province is: one, a new $13.65 million Avalon II elementary school; two, a new $13.65 million Half Moon Bay elementary school; three, a $17.8 million rebuild

West Carleton Secondary School is likely to get board approval for a $6.4 million expansion. Final word from the province is unknown.

province will make final decisions.

While it is true Kanata North continues to expand and the board may soon have to consider building a high school in the area, families in Morgan’s Grant are growing older. That may result in a slow down.

The pull and tug among trustees to get schools for their area ramped up last year when a school not on the list suddenly garnered a lot of attention when parents protested.

Board staff were told to develop criteria in determining which new schools, rebuilds, renovations and additions go first.

The more objective, empiricalbased criteria set isn’t in place yet.

But a bitter debate was avoided when all agreed that the eight on last year’s list should be submitted in the same order this year. Before that was decided, a staff report stated that a new elementary school in Findlay Creek “may be preferred” in third place from fifth. That would have pushed it above West’s addition.

Staff eventually issued another report in September saying the list should be left alone until after the criteria system is in place.

The group learned about ARHâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s home support service. Called Assisted Living Services Program, it helps fulfill the provincial governmentâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s goal to keep seniors living independently in their own homes rather than in costly hospital beds.

Coordinated by the Grove Nursing Home, this new program offers: â&#x20AC;˘ personal support (dressing, help with bathing, personal hygiene, nail care and hair washing); â&#x20AC;˘ Reminders to take medications and arranging attendance at medical appointments, shopping and other activities; â&#x20AC;˘ Homemaking services such as light housekeeping, meal preparation and laundry;

The program isnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t available to West Carleton residents, ARHâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Wendy Knechtel told the group.

She encouraged them to contact local politicians and press for the service. â&#x20AC;&#x153;If thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s enough interest here, Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m sure weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll bring services to the area,â&#x20AC;? Knechtel said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The ministry wants to keep people out of hospital and in their homes.â&#x20AC;?

A question from the group had to do with palliative care at Arnprior and District Memorial Hospital. Knechtel said it doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t have a full-fledged program like Renfrewâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s, but there is a bed and one nurse dedicated to palliative on the part time basis.

She ended her time by calling for volunteers. ARH has a need for volunteers in many areas, including at the thrift store Opportunity Shop on John Street in Arnprior.

Letâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s talk about death

J

udging by the sad state of our provinceâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s palliative care system, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s time to have a conversation about death.

The statistics are frightening. According to the Canadian Palliative Care Association, most Canadians would prefer to die in a home-based setting, yet nearly 75 per cent of all deaths occur in a hospital.

Only 16 to 36 per cent of Canadians have access to hospice palliative care depending on where they live.

The situation will only become worse over time, with the seniorsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; population expected to double by 2036. Meanwhile, people are living longer, giving them time to develop more chronic diseases.

Unfortunately, Ontarioâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s residential hospices are struggling to stay afloat, with a funding model that relies primarily on charitable donations.

The Ontario government only started providing financial support for hospices during the past decade, leaving the responsibility of keeping them running to volunteers and community groups.

After sustained lobbying from palliative care agencies, the federal government finally took action, providing $3 million in one-time funding for the Canadian Palliative Care Association to develop a plan to deliver quality end-of-life care across the country.

The 2012-15 initiative advises provincial govern-

ments to have a clear policy on palliative care that promotes access and integrated delivery of services together with the necessary funding.

But based on a recent interview with Ontario Health Minister Deb Matthews, weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re not confident that approach is even on her radar. The minister was recently in town for the opening of the Ottawa Birth and Wellness Centre, promoting it as a way to provide less-costly and sometimes more appropriate options for expectant mothers.

But when asked if she saw a parallel with using a similar cost-efficient model to offer non-medical care at a hospice, Matthews said sheâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d â&#x20AC;&#x153;have to think about that a little bit,â&#x20AC;? adding hospices will always be partially funded by communities, because itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s the communities who want them there.

But the minister is not the only one guilty of avoiding a serious conversation about death.

We all need to start talking about the state of our provinceâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s palliative care system and the options available for quality palliative care.

Individually, everyone should prepare an advance care plan, directing their care in the event of a lifethreatening illness. Collectively, we must force this on the legislative agenda at Queenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Park.

As it stands, today is not a good day to die.

Things that go beep in the night linked to technology

S

omething went beep beep beep at 5:30 in the morning. Just loud enough to wake me up, not loud enough to wake up the whole neighbourhood.

It kept going beep beep beep for it seemed like 10 minutes. Could have been a truck backing up, but what truck backs up continuously for 10 minutes?

The first thought was that it was the sound of an electronic device wanting something.

Electronic devices are very needy. If their batteries sink below a certain level, they start going beep, no matter what time it is. Then you have to remember whether the phone or the camera or whatever is in somebodyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s purse or somebodyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s jacket pocket or under a seat cushion somewhere.

But it was none of those things. It was something outside. Or maybe in the garage.

There was equipment left in the back yard for some work going on. Maybe a piece of that equipment needed something. But there was no beeping in the garage and nothing in the backyard. It was somewhere in the neighbourhood, but no idea where.

By the time I got back to bed, it had stopped. Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll never know what it was. Donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t think it was a car alarm. Remember when

Maybe they just make little beeps like the ones I was hearing.

Trying then to get back to sleep, I pondered not only the neediness but the stupidity, and perhaps even perversity of our electronic devices.

Long before the first cellphone was invented, Woody Allen had a stand-up routine about his war with the machines he owned.

The toaster burned the toast. The clock ran counter-clockwise. The sun lamp rained on him. So he gathered all the appliances together and spoke to them reasonably, asked them to co-operate.

A few days later, the TV set began to act up and he attacked it in a rage. Two days

later, he was in an elevator, which asked him for his floor. He said 16. The elevator said: â&#x20AC;&#x153;Are you the guy that hit the television set?â&#x20AC;?

Then the elevator took him up and down fast between floors and let him off in the basement.

Most of our machines are not that mean.

Although I have a printer that demands to be realigned when it doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t need it.

If I were Woody Allen I would have a little talk with it and tell it that itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s printing just fine the way it is. But I know thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s no reasoning with it, so I go through the whole realigning drill, which is time-consuming and inconvenient.

The thing is, the printer is too stupid to know it doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t need realigning. The manufacturers probably thought the printer is really smart, because it can send me messages. But if the messages are wrong, whatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s so smart about that?

The same with those things that go beep beep beep. Children make noises when they need something but, except for the very young ones, they know itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s more effective to make noise when their parents are awake.

Not so for cellphones, cameras and whatever that other beeping thing was. If machines were really so smart, theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d know when

people are sleeping.

The fault is ours, of course. We, the technology-obsessed people of the world, taught machines to make noises, to send error messages, to demand upgrades. And if we donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t obey, they make our lives miserable. Which forces us to buy newer machines.

The only possible solution is to turn them off whenever possible. You know they donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t like that because theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re always asking us to confirm that we want to do it. And there may well be a punishment down the road. But at least it stops the beeping for awhile.

United Way Ottawaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s real goal is to change 76,000 lives on how much we thought we could raise. This goal included the donations we hoped to attract to the work of United Way and the donations we collect on behalf of other registered charities. This yearâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s goal is much different.

Last year, donors contributed $16.8 million to United Way to advance our communityâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s priority goals. This year, we aim to raise $21 million, a goal for which we can be transparent, accountable and demonstrate measurable results.

Three years ago, through research and consultations, United Way defined the needs in our community and established priority goals for our work with others. These goals included helping more children and youth to succeed in school, ensuring more seniors can continue to live in their own homes and helping more of our neighbours facing a crisis in their lives to access the support they need.

Since then, United Way has invested donor dollars in programs and initiatives that are

linked to these goals. Today, based on the reports of our partners and our own ongoing research, we can show our donors that their donations produce results.

We are proud of these results. Hereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s one result. Research shows that 1 in 5 children in Ottawa live in poverty and many donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t have access to after-school homework support, recreation and social programs that help keep them off the streets, in school and safe.

Last year, we invested al-

most $1.8 million in 23 frontline programs that directly helped more than 9,100 children and their families. Reports about the children and youth in one homework club supported through donations to United Way show that two-thirds are doing better in

Algonquin students learn to freshen up with foul fat Jennifer McIntosh jennifer.mcintosh@metroland

R0012006246_0404

Community - David Fairbanks, a culinary professor at Algonquin College, said students have found a new way to use the byproducts from their cooking.

“A lot of attention is paid to the type of farming, whether it’s free-range or sustainable and the transportation to your table,” Fairbanks said. “Not a lot of people talk about what to do with it after people have been served.”

Every time a beef or chicken stock is made, there’s a layer of fat on the top, before a quick Google search, students just threw it in the gar-

bage.

“We thought about composting,” Fairbanks said. “But we wanted to see if there was someway to reuse it.”

Fairbanks said it was about respecting the animal and not having any waste. Aside from uses for fat during an Internet search, students found instructions on making soap in an old reference book at the college’s learning centre.

“It was really great. It was about farming in the 1800s,” Fairbanks said. “We could learn a lot from them.”

By retaining the animal fat, students have been able to make bars of soap, which they sell as a natural cleaning product.

Their flagship soap, Dirty Duck, is made with duck fat, water and sodium hydroxide.

The other selections – Filthy Beast, Raging Bull and Foul Fowl – are all made with different animal fats and the JENNIFER MCINTOSH/METROLAND students’ special brand of spices.

“It affects the smell,” Fairbanks said, David Fairbanks, a professor in Algonquin College’s culinary program, poses with soap adding the Filthy Beast soap has a hint made from the byproduct of his students’ cooking. of rosemary. the soap go into an emergency slush fund deNot only do the students collect their natural soap retailer, where it’s made. own fat, but they have begun crowd “It takes 30 days for the soap to dry off and signed to help students in need.

DYING FOR DIGNITY

Connected to your community

The way forward Ontario is on the cusp of a revolution in the way the province offers palliative care, but the plan hinges on government support Metroland East Special Report

O

ntario’s palliative care agencies offer a chilling prognosis for the decades to come.

With a seniors’ population predicted to double in size by 2036, and a funding model for residential hospice care that relies primarily on charitable donations, the system just isn’t sustainable, say palliative care experts.

Canadians are living longer, giving them more time to develop chronic illnesses.

The health-care system can also expect to encounter a growing number of patients with unpredictable life spans as a result of an increase in cases of dementias such as Alzheimer’s and other diseases.

“Unless something is done in the next few years, we’re going to be in a crisis situation on a number of fronts including palliative care and Alzheimer’s and other dementias and just physical space for treatment of the Baby Boom generation,” said Christine Elliott, Ontario Progressive Conservative health critic.

“We need to start planning seriously now, because this is happening in the next three to five years,” she added. “We’re going to have to start to deal with it as boomers hit 65 and start having more complicated health problems.”

Meanwhile, only 16 to 36 per cent of Canadians have access to hospice palliative care and end-of-life services, according to the Canadian Palliative Care Association, depending on where they live. Three-quarters of all deaths occur in hospital, even though most Canadians would prefer to die at home.

The provincial government has failed to properly fund residential hospices, said France Gélinas, the Ontario NDP health critic. Many are forced to come up with more than half of their operating costs through charitable donations and fundraising drives.

“Except for hands-on care, the Ministry of Health has not paid for hospices, so the hospices are on the hook for everything,” she said. “Fundamentally something is wrong – we don’t ask any other part of the healthcare system to fundraise their operations. Why do we ask hospices to do that?”

Hospice palliative care is a priority for the Ontario government, said provincial Health Minister Deb Matthews.

But she was vague concerning the ministry’s current and future plans, adding that it wasn’t long ago that hospices received no funding at all.

“When George Smitherman was minister he announced some funding.

I recently announced we would cover the nursing care in hospices,” she said.

“So we have come from zero to 50 per cent, or whatever the number is, in a very short period of time.”

The provincial government started providing funding for hospices in 2006.

TIGHT BUDGET

The Ontario government’s action plan on palliative care must recognize both the growing seniors’ demographic and the province’s tight fiscal situation, Matthews said.

“We know we’re not going to have a whole lot more money,” she said.

“Our government is committed to keep increasing the health-care budget, but

In 2011, the ministry asked the local health networks to agree to a partnership to increase access to hospice and palliative care by: • Improving the co-ordination of services • Monitoring care to ensure effective use of resources • Providing fair access to hospices across the province • Improving palliative care at longterm care homes and hospitals • Providing care using an inter-disciplinary team and setting standards for end-of-life care The partnership agreement also recommends the provincial government draft a policy statement support-

ing consistent palliative care planning across every region.

“So, within basically the same envelope, we have to transform how we deliver care,” said Matthews. “One of those things ... is improving options for palliative care.”

One option is reallocating money from hospitals to residential hospice care.

Liberal Senator Sharon Carstairs, who founded and chairs the Canadian Virtual Hospice, said receiving palliative care at a hospital or long-term care facility is the most expensive form of delivery.

“You want to avoid sending someone to a hospital setting if you possibly can. But at the same time you

need a hospital setting,” she said. “It’s turf war. It’s about moving the dollars out of the hospital system and into the community.”

By funding more hospice beds, the province can reduce the burden on hospitals’ emergency rooms and acute care beds, according to a report published in 2009 by the Hospice Association of Ontario’s Residential Hospice Working Group.

An acute care bed in an Ontario city costs an average of $850 per day, nearly twice the amount charged by a hospice for a residential bed: $439 per day.

Using a 10-bed hospice model, this would free up $1.5 million annually in health care spending, according to the hospice working group.

But this money does not represent dollar-for-dollar savings, said Rick Firth, director of Hospice Palliative Care Ontario.

“We’re decreasing the cost of care for the individual and we’re freeing up beds in the hospital for them to use for other priorities,” he said, adding it’s about providing appropriate care for the patient.

DYING FOR DIGNITY Continued from ##

Moving forward, the province needs to set a funding target of 80 per cent for residential hospices, he said, as well as improve access to hospice in rural communities.

Célestin Abedi, executive director of the Champlain Hospice Palliative Care Program, an advisory group for the Champlain Local Health Integration Network, is hoping to convince the LHIN to change the funding formula for hospices.

“If we would like hospice to play a bigger role in the health-care system, it is not correct to ask them to fundraise for 60 per cent of the budget to do that,” he said.

“In the rural regions, where you almost don’t have any capacity for fundraising, you cannot give them a bed and say, ‘fundraise for 50 or 60 per cent of that money,’ knowing that they don’t have that capacity.”

Hospices already supplement their operations with an army of volunteers. More than 600 people donate their time to Hospice Care Ottawa to keep its services afloat.

See video of one volunteer’s story: ottawacommunitynews.com /ottawaregion-video/

The Champlain LHIN is now looking at how much money goes into palliative care in hospices and in the region. Its strategic plan identifies palliative care as one of the health network’s priorities for 2013-16.

MOVING FORWARD

A big part of the solution to Ontario’s palliative puzzle lies in the integration of services, say palliative care experts.

“Integration is key,” said Firth. “It’s a trend in most of the western world in order to contain health-care costs.”

After years of advocating for improved access to hospice by the Quality End of Life Care Coalition of Canada, the message finally resonated with the federal government.

In 2012, the Canadian Palliative

program aims to help patients and caregivers create a palliative care plan that starts long before the patient is in the final days of life.

“The one thing about the Ottawa program is that the community has come together and (is) talking together about integration of services,” said Kitchen Clarke.

Other examples of cities offering innovative and integrated programs include Edmonton, which has a regional palliative care program that offers 57 hospice beds located in three different areas in the city, as well as an intensive palliative care hospital unit.

Lessons from Roger’s House

T

here’s a lesson for palliative care professionals in the way Roger’s House helps dying children.

“Truly, the model we have for pediatrics would be the gold standard for adults,” said nurse Marion Rattray, manager of Roger’s House.

One of only four hospices of its kind in Canada, Roger’s House provides eight beds and a home-like environment for families whose children are terminally ill.

Respite care, pain-management consultations and other types of ongoing interventions are more necessary for young patients at the end of life, Rattray said.

Caring for palliative children is

usually a more complex challenge than providing the same care for dying adults. Children receiving palliative-care are more often stricken by multiple, complex genetic conditions that leave the child with very high care needs.

“We need to be connected to a tertiary care hospital,” said Lloyd Cowin, executive director of Roger’s House. “That’s critical.”

That need reinforces the link between the hospital’s palliative care team and the hospice – something that differentiates it from hospices that serve adults.

Those lessons could be translated into adult care settings by having medical teams extend palliative care

outside hospitals, she said.

“You’d have a palliative care team in hospital, but that team would also outreach into the community, into the hospices,” Rattray said.

Many hospices are affiliated with hospitals and palliative-care experts who work in a medical setting, said Cowin, but that interdependency is more vital in pediatric palliative care.

One of the big secrets of its success is co-location – the house sits on what was a small sliver of spare land at the Children’s Hospital of Eastern Ontario. Being located on the same site means doctors and nurses from the hospital’s palliative care team help oversee care at Roger’s House.

“It’s very unique,” said Cowin.

“It’s a big reason for our success.”

The labour-intensive youth hospice model works simply because it serves a smaller proportion of palliative patients, Rattray said, making it possible for Roger’s House and CHEO to invest the resources needed to provide that high level of care.

Creating a connection with families and the children themselves helps ensure the patient receives the type of care that’s best for them during the entire course of their illness, Rattray said.

“The beauty of it is if we are consulted early in the illness trajectory we are able to help them all the way through,” she said.

That’s the type of foresight – referred to in the medical community as “advanced care planning” – that palliative-care professionals say would help ensure patients get the care they need – and not treatment they don’t want. It would also reduce the burden of dying adults on hospitals.

The key is to let the patient and his or her symptoms dictate what time of treatment or care is needed, Rattray said.

“In medical schools and in nursing school, basically you’re taught to fix. And we are such a deathdenying society that we have to fix.

We just have to fix this. And some things we can’t.”

A turtle tale of empty holes and broken shells Natureâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Way Lifestyle â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Autumn brings predictable events. The green masks of leaves are shed, revealing the brilliant hues that were hidden beneath.

Dawn is greeted by a cacophony of geese descending from the North.

And on beaches and roadside shoulders scatterings of empty shells can be found.

The shells are those of turtle eggs laid in late spring. The eggs, which number from a couple of dozen for Painted Turtles up to 40 for Snapping Turtles, are left buried in the ground to hatch on their own. A peculiar twist of Nature, the soil tem-

To make it more difficult for predators to find their precious eggs, turtles sometimes dig â&#x20AC;&#x153;dummyâ&#x20AC;? nests in which no eggs are laid.

But how are turtle nests discovered after months of rain and wind and animal traffic have erased any evidence of eggs being buried in the soil? Likely predators either hear or see young turtles digging their way out of their earthen prisons. Just before dawn one October, Dan Strickland and I came across a partially excavated nest (we likely scared off the excavator). When we looked into the hole we were surprised to see baby turtles emerging from exposed eggs!

During the next hour dozens of baby Snapping Turtles climbed out of the ground and crawled toward the glow

of the rising sun, a direction that brought them to a nearby lake.

Remarkably, hatchling Painted Turtles sometimes spend winter in the ground, emerging in the spring. They are the only reptiles endowed with the ability to survive after being frozen. However, after their hatchling stage, Painted Turtles can no longer make this claim.

It is unlikely that any eggs escape the jaws of predators that find a nest, which is why turtles lay as many eggs as they do. Painted Turtles live for twenty or more years and Snappers, up to a hundred! With large clutches and long lifespans, it takes only one successful hatch to provide a replacement for the mother turtle.

The turtle motto seems to be: if you donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t succeed, try, try MICHAEL RUNTZ again!

Temperatures less extreme produce both sexes. For other animals offspring sex is determined genetically, not environmentally.

Most hatch before daybreak, a time that gives them a better chance of reaching waterâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s safety.

News - Do your windows have proper locks? Could your prize-winning rose bushes be the perfect hiding spot for a burglar?

West Carletonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s community police officer Const. Arun Daniels wants home owners to answer these questions and more with a home security inspection, which is offered free through the community police centre.

Home security inspections allow community members to take an active role in making their homes less susceptible to criminal activity, Daniels said. At the request of a home owner, trained volunteers will visit a home be it a house, condo, apartment or other living arrangement - to assess how residents can make their home safer.

The volunteers would assess things like the locks on all doors and windows, outdoor lighting, and problematic landscaping around your home. â&#x20AC;&#x153;People like privacy around their homes but that also gives someone looking to break and enter some privacy,â&#x20AC;? Daniels said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;If you canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t see the front of your home clearly that offers opportunity for suspects to hide or work and you donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t necessarily have the eyes from people on the street.â&#x20AC;?

The audit is based on a checklist, and participants receive a booklet that identifies safety improvements, provides crime prevention tips and promotes other crime prevention initiatives offered by the police service, like Neighbourhood Watch.

Daniels said the office is encouraging home inspections because several new volunteers have been trained in the program, rather than because of any increase in break-ins.

Members of the public can arrange an inspection by contacting the local community police centre located the West Carleton Community Complex or calling 613-236-1222 ext. 2982.

Making sauerkraut was a family tradition during Depression Lifestyle - The big wood barrel had been scrubbed with hot soapy water and a brush, and put outside on the back stoop to sun-dry.

It would take days for it to be as dry as a bone. And if the sky looked like a drop of rain might come down, the barrel was rolled into the summer kitchen until the threat was over.

Dozens of big fat cabbages were already in the summer kitchen on a table Father had

put together by putting three wide planks on two saw-horses. A new bag of coarse salt had been bought at Briscoe’s General Store. We were ready.

This would be a Saturday night when there would be no going off to a house party, or having neighbours in for a game of cards. This night would be reserved for making sauerkraut, and the whole family would be doing the job.

bages from the summer kitchen as they were needed.

The old pine table had been stripped of its red and white, well-worn oilcloth, and the wood scrubbed clean by my sister Audrey. All the chairs and benches had been moved back to the wall ... there would be no sitting that night!

Hands had been scrubbed with a brush and hot soapy water, and both Father and Mother wore long white pinny aprons for the job. When the work-night started, on the table close to one end, was the cabbage slicer.

The well-scrubbed barrel had been rolled into the kitchen right after supper, and it sat close to the table at one end.

Now it was time to bring in the cabbages from the summer kitchen ... not all at once, of course. They were kept out as long as possible, so that when they were finally shredded, they would still be well chilled from being outside of the steaming hot kitchen.

And that’s when I figured into the picture. It was my job to bring in the cabbages when Father announced he was ready for another one. This meant I was constantly running back and forth … inside, outside.

And it meant I missed seeing

most of the actual job of shredding the big pale green heads, which didn’t please me in the least.

It was Emerson and Everett’s job to peel off the very top leaves of each head of cabbage. Not one leaf more than the very top ones, either. That would be sheer waste.

Beside the table were two huge baskets, and into these baskets went the pulled-off outer leafs. They wouldn’t be tossed out in the back yard, where garbage for which there could be found no other use (and that was very little indeed) was tossed.

No, these baskets of leafs would go to feed the pigs.

And this is where my youngest brother Earl came into the picture.

It was his job to tear down the discarded cabbage into smaller pieces. That way, Father said, it was easier to make the feed go farther when it was finally tossed out to the pigs, mixed with other slop.

My sister Audrey sliced off the very end of the cabbage with a sharp butcher knife, and that too was tossed into the baskets by the table. And then that head was passed on to Father.

hands, Father fed the head of cabbage into the wood box straddling the barrel, running it back and forth over the sharp blade, letting the finely shredded cabbage fall into the barrel. Mother used a block of wood attached to a short pole (Father’s creation), and every so often Father stopped shedding, as mother gently packed down the cabbage.

Everything would come to a halt, and with a measuring cup dipped into the bag of coarse salt, Mother would spread in a goodly amount. For some reason I was never able to fathom, the number of shredded cabbages, was always enough to exactly fill the barrel! Not right to the top, of course, but with about 10 inches of what Father called ‘breathing room’.

The very top of the shredded cabbage got the final toss of coarse salt, and then a wellscrubbed stone ... the same one we used every year, was the last addition to the barrel.

The stone would make sure the cabbage was on a steady packdown.

It took Father and three brothers to roll the barrel out to the summer kitchen. Of course, the sauerkraut would not be ready to eat until it had been well fermented, and was always best when the blasts of winter froze it solid.

By then, which is something else I had trouble figuring out, the cabbage, turned to sauerkraut had settled down into the barrel, and was considerably less, I thought, than what had been put in that night in our kitchen.

For days afterwards, I would sneak a peek into the barrel and would be met with the sharp tang of the fermenting cabbage.

I would have a feeling of contentment come over me.

Because now I knew, deep in that awful Depression, it didn’t matter how bad things got, we would at least have sauerkraut to put on the supper table.

OPINION

Connected to your community

Walk 30 kilometres in your mama’s shoes and you’ll understand Lifestyle - I just walked 30k in my mother’s shoes. Actually, it was more like 22k. My own shoes didn’t self-destruct until the 8k mark. I was part of Kemptville Walks for Mammography on Oct. 5 and things were going along swimmingly, I was swingin’ my arms and cruisin’ right along. The only part of me that hurt was my old lady hips.

My feet felt great. Then suddenly a mouth appeared on my fave old Australian Reeboks and I almost fell over and broke my neck.

I stopped and my walking partner turned to see what was holdin’ me up.

“I have a mouth,” I reported. “On my shoe.” I lifted my foot to show her the damage. My brain started racing, searching for a solution. Just then, out of the corner of my eye, I saw my mother’s van approaching. “Mom!” I looked left and right and then hopskipped across 44 to where she had pulled over. I thought maybe I could give her my truck keys and she could run back to the starting point and get

my spare shoes for me. I realized she probably had better things to do with her Saturday but that’s just the kind of mom she is. The amazing kind.

“I was just on my way to the gym,” Mom said. “You can have my shoes!” She wears the same size as me, but the shoes were the rockin’ and rollin’ style of Skechers that made me feel like I was walking in ski boots. It only took me a few strides to get used to them and soon I was strolling in what might be the most comfortable pair of shoes I have ever worn.

And that is how I did the 30k. In my mama’s shoes. Thanks, Mom. I love you.

The route this year took us through a gorgeous kaleidoscope of coloured leaves in the Ferguson Forest Centre.

I had forgotten those trails that we walked on elementary school field trips and summer day camp excursions. What a beautiful slice of nature

DIANA FISHER Accidental Farmwife we have bordering one of the fastest growing communities in Eastern Ontario. Back out in civilization, we got some honks and waves and I even picked up a donation from Steve Cater, who pulled over to cheer us on.

Why do we do these walks for cancer? Yes, it is a symbolic way to raise awareness about the struggle that each cancer patient is going through. It is also a personal challenge for many.

But the thing I love about doing the Terry Fox Run or Kemptville Walks is that for those few minutes or hours, you are forced to be in the moment.

You think about the people you have

lost to cancer and the ones who are currently dealing with it in one form or another.

My favourite part of the walk this year was seeing an old friend, whom I haven’t spoken to much since high school (outside of Facebook). Leanne just got her breast cancer diagnosis a couple months ago. She started her therapy a couple weeks ago. Last week her family of boys shaved their heads in solidarity with her. Leanne was waiting at the side of the route with her sister and husband as we rounded the bend. I took note of her beanie hat and new hoodie, emblazoned with an embroidered pink ribbon and “My Journey to Wellness” slogan. Well that just made it real. We had a good hug and I continued on my way.

At every pit stop, Leanne was there in her van and her husband and sister were handing out water bottles. She smiled her beautiful smile and cracked her jokes and it was just gorgeous Le-

anne, without any hair. Thank you, Leanne, for sharing this event with us.

I understand she did Run for the Cure in the rain on Sunday, as well.

I would like to give a shout out to my STAR 975fm morning show host, Drew Hosick. Drew has been doing a lot of walking this year, in his own personal fitness campaign. But I know the 30k was a challenge for him, and he was definitely feeling the pain at the halfway mark. As he approached the finish line, he felt dizzy and almost fell over at about 26k. Just then Leanne and her husband showed up, and they offered to walk the rest of the way with Drew to the finish line.

It was a pretty emotional event for all of us who were watching, waiting and cheering them on.

Congratulations to everyone who took part in the 10k and 30k, and many thanks to all who donated. Over $50,000 has been raised for Mammography at Kemptville District Hospital.

move most of the toxic elements from its exhaust. For a tiny fraction of the overall cost of the Green Energy Act, Nanticoke could be fitted with wet scrubbing technology to make it the cleanest in the world and that single plant would be able to produce many times the electricity of all the installed and proposed solar and wind installations in Ontario.

As for “green” solar, it is estimated that for every ton of solar grade silicon produced, 10 tons of extremely carcinogenic residue is also produced. These toxic residues include silicon tetrachloride, which contaminates the ground and water, and also heavy metal toxins including arsenic and cadmium. Is it any wonder that the majority of solar panels are now produced in China due to their low environmental standards?

However, even the Chinese people are waking up to the “green” scam and have recently begun protesting the pollution from solar manufacturing, even causing the closing of one plant. All those shiny solar panels with a finite lifespan (warranties are typically 20-25 years) that are appearing across Ontario also contain their share of toxins, but no plan is in place to deal with that mess when they wear out.

Co-operatives have existed in Ontario for over a hundred years and are an interesting business model but I question the ethics of an investment vehicle that can only exist because the Liberal government of Ontario has forced hydro ratepayers to subsidize “green” energy at as much as 10 times the current retail price. That seems the sort of thing to produce “paralyzing despair”, particularly for Ontario residents on fixed incomes.

If a person wants to invest in the socalled green energy programs available in Ontario they should do so with their eyes wide open and with all of the facts at hand. Just remember that you are not investing in a free-market economy but in a program subsidized by the ratepayers of Ontario.

Hard to believe a year has come and gone but it’s good to be back Community – My fiveyear-old has recently taken quite an interest in what I do.

He understands I work “at the paper” but beyond that he has no real grasp of what it is exactly that I do – especially over the last year.

I have tried to explain it to him but the word ‘managing editor’ didn’t really seem to click in his brain. The fact I

also worked out of several offices over this past year was troubling to him. So when he asked where I went to work, the answer could have been Ottawa, or Arnprior, or Renfrew or even Smiths Falls depending on the day. I can’t blame the boy for being confused.

Over the past year, my job was dramatically different FILE

and as such, I have returned to the West Carleton Review as its news editor.

While leaving West Carleton was hard, stepping up to managing editor was a wonderful experience and I learned a lot, about the newspaper business, Metroland and myself. I got to know staff in all our offices and I became familiar with the ins of outs of what we do and why.

I managed schedules, payroll, dealt with complaints, letters to the editor, staffing and much more.

What I didn’t get to do a lot of was write. And that is the part of being a journalist that I love the most and was the hardest to let go. But, with all the other duties I had assumed, something had to give.

I did get a little bit of writing over the year and that included covering the Dreams Take Flight trip to Walt Disney World in Orlando last September. I also attended the Ottawa United Way’s Community Builder Awards, and I nearly got to interview Charlie Hunnam – the actor who

plays Jax Teller on the FX series Sons of Anarchy.

That interview, by the way is postponed until January.

So, I will still get to meet him. And for those of you who don’t know, Hunnam has been signed to play Christian Grey in the movie version of E.L. James’ Fifty Shades of Grey. But, I digress.

I also had the opportunity to meet some amazing Metroland editors as part of these quarterly editors’ meetings I attended. What I took from those meetings is how much talent we have in our organization and that the Metroland slogan “Connected to your community” is more than lip service for most of these people. It is how they approach the job every day.

And that brings me back to the job I have loved doing for the past 24 years – being a working journalist. I love writing, love telling people’s stories and love getting out information that matters to the community. And the community that I have a passion for is West Carleton and I am

There were many times over the past year when things happened in the community and I wished I could have been part of it. Now, I don’t have to wonder any more. I am here to stay.

Derek Dunn did a great job filling in during my absence and we both look forward to continuing to cover the issues that matter most to all you in the community.

As for my son, I hope to be able to explain a little better what I do now that I am back doing something that is very familiar to me.

For now, I will continue to tell him I work at the paper in West Carleton (where his grandma and poppa live) and that is where I belong. We can save the talks about news, natural curiosity and deadlines for another day.

News – The Arnprior and District Humane Society is holding its’ annual ‘Fill ‘em Up’ fundraiser Saturday, Oct. 19.

Volunteer vehicles will be parked at Pet Valu in Arnprior from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. with trunks open ready for donations of needed supplies for the Arnprior no-kill animal shelter.

The society reports the number of stray and abandoned cats and dogs has reached unprecedented levels in Arnprior and area.

As a result, the society’s need for support from the public is even more critical than ever.

“To continue to maintain

the operation of the no-kill animal shelter, we depend on the support of the local community to help us out with much needed every day supplies,” says the society in a news release.

It explains that items such as paper towels, liquid laundry soap, bleach, dryer sheets, window cleaner, large garbage bags and hand sanitizer are needed for the day-to-day operation of the shelter.

As well, there are items that people might not think of, such as pillow cases, blankets, cat trees, cat and dog treats, and office supplies.

“Habitat for Humanity is such a great cause and we felt we should support them and somehow create a name for the event that tied in with theirs,” Ricci added. “We’ve been working very hard to make this a huge success and we’re so thankful for the volunteers who’ve been helping us out, especially those from Habitat for Humanity.”

The focus of the run is survival. At the start, the human participants will be given an identification number and three flags. The flags are life and they attract the zombies. The zombies will do everything they can to take the flags. If a human loses all their flags but finish the race, they run with the knowledge they are infected.

Vacheresse said the race will be through a five kilometre obstacle course that will take runners through fields, tall grass, woods, obstacles and put them face to face with zombies looking to infect them.

“We wanted to appeal to everyone,” Vacheresse said. “This appeals to people who aren’t athletic and people who are...it’s an experience.

Community – Get ready to run for your life and for humanity.

The first ever Zombie Run for Humanity is set to take place Oct. 19 and the race is a fundraiser for Habitat for Humanity NCR (National Capital Region). Participants are encouraged to put their humanity on the line and race to survive the zombie apocalypse.

The race is designed to take humans across some tough terrain in what is being referred to as the ‘infected zone’ but is otherwise known as the Nepean National Equestrian Park at 401 Corkstown Rd. in Nepean. And organizers say the race is not about speed or skill, but survival as humans will come into contact with plenty of zombies along the way looking to infect them.

According to run co-founder Susan Vacheresse, she and fellow organizer Ryan Ricci wanted to give something back to the community but neither had ever organized a large-scale event before.

With the popularity of zombie walks and shows like The Walking Dead, the duo thought they might try that approach and see if it clicked with the public. And it has.

“We had no idea what we had our hands on,” Vacheresse said. “This appeals to a different demographic. The response is amazing.”

Vacheresse said people want to support community causes and this type of event provides a different opportunity for participation.

“I’ve always been active in the community as much as possible so I wanted to do something unique.

Susan and I decided on the Zombie Run for Humanity as the perfect fit,” added Ricci. “There’s such a strong zombie following today so what better than an event like this?”

Five things I learned showing a cow at the 150th Carp Fair Rev. Monique Stone

Community - I have been the local Anglican priest in the Carp community for just over two years. Shortly after I arrived in Carp I decided that I wanted to try showing a cow in the Carp Fair. Of course few people took me seriously and it was not until a year into my position at the Anglican Parish of Huntley that a parishioner (the late Betty Bradley) actually connected me with her sister (Simmental Breeder and 4H Leader Extraordinaire Barbara Vance) who agreed to take me on as a student and help me get to the fair (and lend me a cow).

As I journeyed towards the fair, and in the days after, I realized that there is a lot of life wisdom to be found when one shows a cow in a fair for the first time at 43 years of age!

Lesson 1: Sometimes we need to stop and enjoy the nature and creation that surrounds us.

As soon as I started to venture to the Vance farm to meet the cows I realized that a barn can truly be a sanctuary. There is no need for a cellphone, a computer or an overscheduled family agenda when you are working in the barn or having an in-depth conversation with a cow.

Sometimes in my life I forget to look around and recognize that we all need a little bit of time with nature and simply be reminded that we are all just one part of the whole of creation.

Lesson 2: Trying new things is difficult but worth it!

Many people thought I was a bit nuts to show a cow but I did it. I learned something completely new and achieved my ultimate goal to not land on my butt in the show ring at

COURTESY OF ALLAN JOYNER PHOTOGRAPHY

Huntley Parishâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Rev. Monique Stone has only been in the area a couple of years, but she is among the few to show a cow at the fair (above), thanks in large part to her mentor, Barbara Vance.

Among the lessons she learned: crap happens.

the 150th Carp Fair!

When I entered the ring with a less than co-operative heifer I realized that my limited knowledge was going

to be put to the test by a 1500 pound animal; it took all the strength I had to get through ten minutes in the show ring. It was difficult but well worth it! Sometimes we need to try new things and though they can be scary, challenging, and humbling they can also be great aspects of our life journey!

Lesson 3: Our elders just might be stronger than us!

When I awoke the day after the Fair my body was exhausted. I felt muscles in my arms that I did not

know I had! Seeking sympathy, I called my cow Mentor Barbara to see how her day of post-Fair recovery was going. Little did I know that while I was taking pain medication she was busy baking apple pies; ten of them from scratch.

I was humbled by the strength and resiliency that exists in this woman who is almost twice my age. As I reflected on Barbara and many other elders in our community I recognized that we have much to learn about the strength of our elders; especially those who have worked seven days a week and 365 days a year on a farm

for most of their life.

Lesson 4: Life includes some crap!

Animals have little hesitation when it comes to ridding themselves of waste. Anywhere and anytime seems to be the general rule. No matter how often you clean the barn the reality is that crap happens. So it is with life; crap happens! Sometimes we feel we are stepping into it, sometimes we feel we are up to our eyeballs in it; sometimes we feel weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve got through it; and sometimes we recognize itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s just part of life. Our life journey includes some crap and we just cannot avoid it.

Lesson 5: Community happens and community matters!

My cow showing adventure took some support from a community of people; some I didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t even know before the day of the show. From the young 4Hers who helped me out, to my mentor Barbara Vance, to the ring steward who walked beside me when he saw that I was in a bit of trouble, to the young farmer who meet me at the in-gate to offer a helping hand, to the people sitting in the stands cheering me on. Sometimes we all need a little support and some friends to lean on. Sometimes we are thankful for the communities and groups weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve known forever and other times new communities and relationships develop throughout our journey.

Community matters and it can happen anytime in our lives.

Now that the show is over and the cows have been let out to pasture I am left with great memories of the 150th Carp Fair. Now if only I could figure out how to make an apple pie to enter into next yearâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s homecraft division!

Wounded warriors to benefit from Nov. 8 fundraiser Wounded Warriors Canada has become integral in the support of injured personnel.

“From our initial project of establishing a Comfort Fund for Wounded Soldiers while recuperating in hospital in Landstuhl, Germany, to scores of individual support projects, establishment of a hand up program, outreach programs to homeless veterans, and current initiatives to address the explosion of Operational related Stress Injuries, we are committed to assist and advocate for these Canadian Heroes,” says spokesman Captain Wayne Johnston.

In that regard, retired Armed Forces Lt. Colonel Karen McCrimmon of Constance Bay and former Veterans Ombudsman Pat Stogran have embarked on creating a local event to raise funds and awareness for wounded military personnel. Titled, ‘Singing for Change’, the West Carleton community is invited to take part in the evening of music and food at Constance Bay Legion Branch 616.

The Constance Bay event will feature musical performances by a variety of local and regional musicians who

Community - West Carleton is gearing up to support wounded military personnel and their families.

A special fundraiser, Singing For Change, will be staged Friday Nov. 8 at Constance Bay Legion Branch 616 in conjunction with Remembrance Week. All proceeds will go to support the Wounded Warriors association in Canada.

When a soldier is wounded or killed, the Canadian military immediately assigns an Assisting Officer to help the family with the ordeal. Considered to be one of the most difficult tasks a soldier may receive in their career, some of the biggest issues revolve around ongoing support.

Since its inception in 2006, Wounded Warriors Canada has made a significant impact in assisting and improving the quality of life of Canada’s wounded and their families. Through strategic partnerships with the Department of National Defence, the Department of Veterans Affairs and other support agencies backed by the generous support of private donors,

are donating their time, as well as food and other activities. The usual Friday TGIF dinner will be served starting at 5:30 p.m., followed by live entertainment from 6:30 p.m. to midnight. Admission to the entertainment portion of the evening is a donation of $10 per person to Wounded Warriors.

“The biggest problem is ongoing support. Many people want to help but don’t know how, so we are hoping that the entire community and outlying area will take this opportunity to show their support for the men and women who risk their lives to protect our country and way of life,” said McCrimmon.

Branch 616 Legion president Arleen Morrow said the organization is proud to assist the fundraiser.

“The Legion is dedicated to supporting all military, past and present,” she said. “We are glad to be part of an evening with such a worthy cause.”

Aided by an enthusiastic local committee, McCrimmon and Stogran are hoping for a sell-out crowd.

News - When retired Navy captain Mark Eldridge met a number of homeless people downtown during a fundraiser last fall, he was surprised to learn he was looking into the eyes of his fellow brothers-inarms.

Last October, the Blackburn Hamlet resident and a group of other servicemen and women were in downtown Ottawa running a fundraiser for Soldier On, a group that supports ill and injured Canadian Forces members to be active in

sport and recreational activities.

“That bothered us tremendously, that in the course of a few hours, we were engaged by six folks who are living on the street,” Eldridge said.

In a city with multiple layers of government and lots of resources, “How the hell does this happen?” Eldridge asked.

A group of about a dozen people who were involved with the fundraiser realized there was a different opportunity for them to help their brothers-in-arms.

Since January, the group has grown to around 40

members who have visited the Ottawa Mission and Shepherds of Good Hope shelters to serve lunch on two occasions.

Soldiers Helping Soldiers members identify themselves as Canadian Forces through markings on their aprons and ball caps.

Eldridge is hoping this subtle action will open a door for veterans living on the margins.

Offering a sense of belonging and an opportunity to reconnect with a community they identify with can be a way in. It’s the first step in guiding them along the path to accessing the right services that are going to make a difference for them, Eldridge said.

“It’s just a way of bringing them back,” he said.

There is no way to know how many homeless people in Ottawa are former Canadian Forces members, said Dave Gordon, executive director of the Ontario command of the Royal Canadian Legion.

“We often get the question, ‘How many homeless veterans are there in Canada?’” Gordon said. “I always say, how many snowflakes fell in the last snowstorm? I have no idea.”

Eldridge said he was surprised that any veterans identified themselves during Soldier’s Helping Soliders’ first two shelter visits. He said there is no way to estimate the scope of the issue in Ottawa, but he guessed there may be in the neighbourhood of 100 homeless veterans in the city.

The issues they face and the conditions that led to them ending up on the streets are the same as the issues faced by any person who becomes homeless, Eldridge said.

“This story doesn’t wear a uniform,” he said. “It’s not about their military service.”

Addiction is an issue and alcohol abuse is easy to fall into when there are few distractions on a military base, Eldridge said. But addiction is a common thread for many people who become homeless, he said.

Continuing to build that network is a priority, as is connecting with veterans in need. People looking for a way to connect a homeless or at-risk veteran with the proper services can email Eldridge at markeldridge_12529@ hotmail.com.

Skeptical councillors approve new OLG deal Laura Mueller laura.mueller@metroland.com

News - A “unilateral” contract the Ontario Lottery and Gaming Corporation delivered to the city gives the OLG freedom to define the number of slot machines and gaming tables in Ottawa.

The city’s finance and economic development committee narrowly supported the agreement on Oct. 1.

Despite the clause undermining city council’s recent decision to only allow 1,250 slot machines and 21 gaming tables at the Rideau Carleton Raceway, the city’s finance committee signed off on the contract last week.

But committee members did so on the understanding that the OLG would put in writing that it would respect the city’s decision on the number of slots and tables before city council was asked to give final approval to the agreement on Oct. 9.

City manager Kent Kirkpat-

rick said the OLG advised him it was prepared to put that in writing in time for the council decision. Mayor Jim Watson, who heads the finance committee, also put forward a motion to the committee reinforcing support for council’s decision about the number of slots and tables. Gloucester-Southgate Coun. Diane Deans was the only committee member to dissent on that amendment.

City solicitor Rick O’Connor said the tone and format of the “agreement” was a departure from similar contracts with the OLG. “If I were to tell you this was an agreement negotiated in the normal course, I would be being disingenuous,” he said. “This is not a routine negotiation, so there is no back and forth.”

The agreement doesn’t change much for the financial relationship between the OLG and the city.

It adds a contribution to the city of four per cent of the profits from table games,

which doesn’t apply now because there are not yet any gaming tables at the raceway.

In the last five years, the city received between $4.3 and $4.4 million annually from raceway slots revenue.

The new agreement also adds the creation of a community recognition program, which the city will be obligated to partner with the OLG to design and implement. The agreement requires at least one community promotional event to be held annually. It is anticipated the city would be required to pay for its own costs for at least the one event reach year, according to a city staff report. The city manager will be discussing the details with OLG. Some committee members, including Orléans Coun. Bob Monette, expressed concern that the program would obligate the city to become a “cheerleader” for the OLG. Bruce Jutzi, the only member of the public who signed up to speak to the commit-

tee about the issue, said that clause is only one part of the new agreement that’s problematic.

“The OLG wants 2,000 slots and 84 tables,” Jutzi said, adding that the provisions in the agreement are designed to “neuter” the city.

Other councillors, particularly Bay Coun. Mark Taylor, were also concerned about a clause that absolves the OLG of any liability.

“I’m not sure why we would sign this,” he said.

Taylor, along with College Coun. Rick Chiarelli, Rideau-

Rockcliffe Coun. Peter Clark, Knoxdale-Merivale Coun.

Keith Egli and Deans voted against the agreement. Committee members who voted yes included: Allan Hubley (Kanata South), Peter Hume (Alta Vista), Maria McRae (River), Monette, Doug Thomp

Ruddy, Shenkman donate $1M to hospice campaign Jessica Cunha jessica.cunha@metroland.com

News â&#x20AC;&#x201C; The campaign to build a 10-bed hospice in Kanata is halfway complete following the donation of $1 million from the Shenkman and Ruddy families, announced on Oct. 2.

The donation brings the Hospice Ottawa West Campaign to more than $3 million dollars â&#x20AC;&#x201C; halfway to the $6 million goal needed for the west-end hospice to open in 2016. â&#x20AC;&#x153;This gift is significant for more reasons than just the number of zeros. One, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s the largest gift ever made to a hos-

pice in our community â&#x20AC;Ś it is among the largest gifts ever made to a hospice in Canadian history,â&#x20AC;? said Amy Desjardins, president of the Bruyère Foundation.

The foundation partnered with Hospice Care Ottawa to raise $6 million to complete the first of a three-phase plan to build the full-service Kanata hospice.

The residential hospice, located at 110 McCurdy Dr. in Katimavik, will now be known as the Ruddy-Shenkman Hospice.

Palliative care holds a special place in the hearts of John and Jennifer Ruddy, as well as Bill and Maureen Shenkman,

who donated the funds to Hospice Care Ottawaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Hospice West Campaign. â&#x20AC;&#x153;My familyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s experienced first-hand the importance of hospice care when my sister Gina spent her last days there a few months ago,â&#x20AC;? said John, the president and chief executive officer of Trinity Development Group Inc. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The compassionate care my sister received was second to none, and provided her with comfort and dignity.â&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x153;I was trying to think of a word, just one single word that could describe the good work and importance of Bruyère, and of course, this good hospice,â&#x20AC;? said Bill, chairman of

the Shenkman Group of Companies. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The word I came up with is dignity. This is dignity personified.â&#x20AC;?

The Ruddys and Shenkmans have sponsored areas of the Bruyère Continuing Care centre, with the Maureen and William Shenkman Palliative Care Unit and the John and Jennifer Ruddy Geriatric Day Hospital. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Bill Shenkman and John and Jennifer Ruddy have time and time again made the choice to give back to the community in very significant and often overwhelming ways,â&#x20AC;? said Desjardins.

During a tour of the facility last year, Desjardins mentioned to the Shenkmans the

potential of a west end residential hospice â&#x20AC;&#x153;We had no money, we had no site. It literally was just a dream,â&#x20AC;? said Desjardins.

By April, Hospice Care Ottawa had secured a site at the former Trinity Presbyterian Church. The deal closed in June, with a special key ceremony held to commemorate the move.

And then the hospice received more good news.

Over the summer, Desjardins received an email from Bill asking how much it would cost for the primary naming opportunity for the new building. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I practically fell off my chair,â&#x20AC;? said Desjardins.

The first step will be to move the administration into the Ruddy-Shenkman Hospice

by January. The second phase will be to expand the day programs and have more available at the Kanata site by 2014. The third phase is to build a 10-bed residential hospice on the site by 2016. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Today of course is a first because it is a big step on our way to having a full-service hospice here in the west end of Ottawa, in Kanata,â&#x20AC;? said Lisa Sullivan, executive director of Hospice Care Ottawa, an amalgamation of Friends of Hospice Ottawa and the Hospice at May Court. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s so touching, I was overwhelmed,â&#x20AC;? she added

We Want to Buy Your Unwanted Gold & Silver!

City launches online project toolkit Laura Mueller laura.mueller@metroland.com

News - A new website launched by the city will help give residents ideas and tools for how to make their neighbourhoods more liveable.

The Neighbourhood Connections toolkit, available at ottawa.ca/neighbourhoods, offers tips and information about contacts and processes involved with planning a communitybased project, engagement activity or event.

The toolkit is aimed at helping groups facilitate volunteer-driven projects that make creative use of public space or contribute to making communities more vibrant places to live.

“People come to community projects at the neighbourhood level with varying capacities to take on projects,” said Julea Boswell, a city planner involved with the Neighbourhood Connections initiative.

“This can help zero in and fill in the blanks for experienced activists or (help people) start from the beginning.”

The website is meant to make the resources of the city planning department’s Neighbourhood Connections office available to groups in the more than 100 Ottawa neighbourhoods. The office’s Better Neighbourhoods grant program can only serve about four communities each year, so the online toolkit is a way to extend the office’s resources into other communities, Boswell said.

The website toolkit is broken down into four sections the represent the four basic stages of a project’s lifecycle: Get Inspired, Get Started, Make it Happen and Project Wrap-up.

In addition to ideas, articles, tips and information on relevant bylaws, the site also has

practical tools like checklists and a way to gain contacts for local media through the city’s media relations office.

Much of the information already existed on the city’s website, but now it’s gathered and linked in one spot to make it easier to find, Boswell said.

She also invited people to contact the Neighbourhood Connections office by emailing neighbourhoods@ottawa.ca with suggestions about other information or links that could be added to the site.

By the end of the year, the website will also feature case studies of the first four Better Neighbourhoods projects from this year. Projects that took place in Vanier, Leslie Park, the Brewer Park community garden biodome in Old Ottawa South and the Kanata Chinese Seniors Support Centre community garden could help inspire other community groups, Boswell said.

The application period for the 2014 Better Neighbourhoods program is open until Monday, Oct. 21. Successful groups receive up to $30,000 in financial support and work with their city councillor’s office and city staff on projects.

At the launch of the toolkit during a Sept.

24 planning committee meeting, Kanata South Coun. Allan Hubley questioned whether a costbenefit analysis had been done for the website.

Lee Ann Snedden, manager of policy development and urban design, said the Neighbourhood Connections office has been in operation for two years and is up for a full program evaluation at the end of 2014. That will include a cost-benefit analysis, she said, as well as recommendations on how to proceed in 2015.

Their ears were frostbitten, but they were lucky to have survived.

It’s a hard life for feral cats. Domesticated cats, if abandoned and living long enough outdoors, can become feral. Feral cats are homeless, “wild”, untamed cats, often born outside and having had little or no contact with humans. Ferals often live in groups called colonies.

It is estimated there are millions of feral cats in North America. Some are lucky to have volunteer caretakers feed and care for them, at great expense to themselves – maybe someone in your neighbourhood. For some ferals, food is scarce. They get sick, frostbitten, attacked and injured or killed – and no one knows or cares.

Fortunately, a Trap-Neuter-Return program reduces the feral population humanely and gradually; but the whole colony needs to be vaccinated too, and then managed under the care of a dedicated cat colony caretaker. Kittens and not-so-wild cats can sometimes be adopted into homes. Wilder but healthy cats are returned to their colonies.

Bay Oktoberfest dinner fundraises for Sandhills Project Emily Edwards WCCS co-op student

sible without the help of Constance Bay resident Anita Kamps, who cooked the dinner and helped organize the event. The aim of the festive dinner was to raise more money for the Sandhills Project while

experiencing a taste of German heritage.

“We are trying to get these dinners established so that every month we can expand on them and get more people to come out,” said Kamps. “This will enable us to have

more large scale events once the expansion of the community center is finished.”

It has been nearly 10 years since the last Oktoberfest in Constance Bay, but it was happily welcomed back by the community with the help of volunteers. The event followed the theme of the ‘date night’ dinners, aiming to recover the monthly occurrence. Other meal themes have included Italian, Mexican, and Salsa Night in months past, with more to come in the future. Each event brings the community closer to its goal for the expansion project, and with each event more of the community’s generosity is experienced.

Community Members of the Constance Bay community joined together to celebrate Oktoberfest on Saturday at the community center.

Guests enthusiastically danced to German music while enjoying the classic three German culinary S’s: sauerkraut, schnitzel and spaetzle.

Carp’s Kurtis Foster plays in KHL Earn Extra Money!

Theresa Fritz

theresa.fritz@metroland.com

Sports – With the new National Hockey League (NHL) season getting underway last week, one of its former players with a local connection was hitting the ice elsewhere.

Carp native Kurtis Foster, 31, signed a one-year contact with Kontinental Hockey League (KHL) Croatian club Medvescak Zagreb.

The defenceman appeared in 23 games with the Philadelphia Flyers during the shortened 2012-2013 season.

During that time he scored one goal and earned five points. He was released as a free agent at the end of the season and signed the contract with the Croatian squad in July.

In a press release issued at the time of Foster’s signing, KHL Medvescak Zagreb sporting director Aaron Fox praised Foster’s abilities.

“Kurtis is a player of whom much is expected. His quality is (being) a good defender who performs offensive tasks that should help us in situations with players more, due to his powerful shot. The player has NHL experience and we believe he will become our top

KURTIS FOSTER defender,” Fox said.

Foster joined the KHL team in August.

Over his professional career, Foster played 408 games in the NHL. He was selected in the second round, 40th overall, in the 2000 NHL entry draft by the Calgary Flames from the Peterborough Petes of the Ontario Hockey League.

In 2001, he was traded by Calgary to the Atlanta Thrashers. In 2004, he was traded to the Anaheim Mighty Ducks.

After one season in Anaheim, Foster signed as a free agent with the Minnesota Wild, On March 20, 2008, Fos-

ter suffered a broken femur in a game against the San Jose Sharks. That injury required Foster to have season-ending surgery to repair the broken left femur.

He was sent down to the Wild’s farm team- the Houston Aeros - for conditioning.

In July 2009, he was signed as free-agent to a one-year contract with the Tampa Bay Lightning where he scored a career high 42 points. In July 2010, he signed a two-year contact with the Edmonton Oilers.

In July 2011, Foster was traded to the Anaheim Ducks and during the 2011-12 season, he was traded to the New Jersey Devils and then he was traded back to the Minnesota Wild in February 2012.

The impact of the NHL lockout in 2012-2-13 affected Foster’s free agent contract and he signed a European contract with Tappara of the Finnish SM-liiga in October 2012.

In January 2013, he returned to North America to sign with an NHL team and did so with the Philadelphia Flyers where he played in 23 games. Released the Flyers as a free agent, he returned to Europe and signed with Medvescak Zagreb.

Committee decides Can-Am League is best baseball option laura.mueller@metroland.com

Sports - After dreaming of an AA baseball team, Ottawa will instead be settling for the return of a Cam-Am league franchise in 2015.

City council balked at the proposed $40-million price tag of bringing minor league, professional team to the Ottawa Baseball Stadium in Overbrook and asked staff to go back to the drawing board. The only option

that made financial sense is a $4.75-million contract with the low-level league, which fielded a team called the Ottawa Rapidz that lasted for one unsuccessful year in 2008.

Mayor Jim Watson called the Can-Am proposal “a realistic and affordable plan” that is good for baseball fans and taxpayers.

“There is an opportunity to put this facility to the use that was intended … and also open it up as a com-

munity space,” he said.

The main savings are in the cost to the city to fix up its Coventry Road stadium. While the minor league team would have needed to see $40 million in taxpayer-funded repairs and upgrades to the 20-year-old facility, the Can-Am league is comparatively a bargain, requiring about $750,000 in fixes and upgrades upfront.

The annual net cost for the city to operate the stadium will be $400,000, said city manager Kent Kirkpatrick, but that will rise to $650,000 by 2018.

Kanata South Coun. Allan Hubley was the only member of the finance and economic development committee to vote against the deal during an Oct. 1 meeting.

He questioned why the city was even in the baseball business when it’s getting out of things like operating a municipal golf course and discontinuing the Nepean Equestrian Park.

During the meeting, councillors wanted to know what the $40 million would have included, but that information is secret because it’s part of Mandalay Baseball’s confidential bid the city rejected.

The city and its baseball fans

had set their hopes on a team affiliated with the Blue Jays, which would have kickstarted interest in the sport from both sports enthusiasts and young athletes.

Instead, Ottawa will be getting a team that will become the sixth in its league and is not affiliated with any major-league team.

50 HOME GAMES

The team will play 50 home games a season, leaving time for community events to use the space, according to a city staff report.

Gloucester-Southgate Coun.

Diane Deans was critical of the plan and questioned why the city would tie its hands with a baseball contract just as the construction of light rail nearby the stadium site could boost the property’s value for sale and redevelopment.

Watson said light rail provides an opportunity to give the stadium and baseball game attendance a boost.

David Gourlay of Champions for Ottawa Baseball said the process of stirring up fan support and lobbying for a pro team has shown him that there are not

enough financial resources or partnership opportunities right now to make a AA team viable here.

“Yes, baseball belongs here and an affiliated team would be a good choice,” he said. “Clearly, we are not there now.”

Supporting baseball in Ottawa would have required city council to recognize its benefit and invest in it over the long term, which hasn’t happened, Gourlay said.

If the Can-Am experience goes well, it could pave the way for a higher-level team in the future, said College Coun. Rick Chiarelli, who has long promoted baseball in the city.

Council’s other baseball champion, Orleans Coun. Bob Monette, said the contract guarantees there will be less loss to taxpayers and creates a foundation the city can build on.

10-YEAR LEASE

The proposed contract with the league, which still needs council’s final approval, would give Can-Am a 10-year lease and two five-year options to renew. It also recommends the city seek additional tenants, likely sports-related, to rent of-

fice space in the stadium.

Some councillors wondered whether that was enough of an out for the city in case a better team came along or it became obvious that selling and redeveloping the land would be more beneficial to the city.

WEALTHY PARTNER NEEDED

Peter Bachelor, a well-known local high-school baseball coach and member of Friends of the Blue Jays Fan Association, advised the city to partner with a company that has “deep pockets” and possibly sell the stadium. That option isn’t on the table now because there is “no appetite” to see the facility torn down, the mayor said.

It would cost $367,000 in utility and minor maintenance costs to keep the stadium sitting empty, city staff said.

The Can-Am League was originally established in Ontario and upper New York state in 1936 and folded a number of times before restarting in 2005.

Nearby teams include TroisRivieres and Quebec City.

Can-Am teams play an inter-league schedule with the American Association, another independent league.

Eight-month-old John Newman (photo right) attended his first Carp Fair this year and did leadline on his pony Rocky. He laughed all the way around the ring and was the youngest competitor. Horses come naturally to this little boy and his mother Crystal Newman (seen behind him) grew up on a horse ranch on Peter Robinson Road. Standing with them is grandmother Dale Larose. Crystal and her husband were also part of the record breaking 25 six-horse hitches at the fair, showing Clydesdales for a man from Richmond.

They finished sixth out of the 25 entrants in competition.
