News - An old stone building in West Carleton dating back to the mid-1800s was in the process of being demolished starting the weekend of Oct. 26.

The McMurtry Tannery was fenced off on Oct. 24 and a small backhoe was on site the following day. Located at the corner of Old Carp and Old Second Line roads, the building was likely constructed between the 1830s and 1850s, said Judy Makin, past-president of the March Rural Community Association.

“It’s probably the oldest piece of heritage in the community,” she said, adding that many residents in the area contacted their councillor, Eli El-Chantiry, as well as the city’s heritage department about the demolition.

The tannery never received heritage status.

News - Homeowners in Ottawa’s urban area will see an average of an extra $62 on their city tax bill in 2014.

That 1.9 per cent increase – the smallest municipal tax-rate increase in seven years – was proposed in the city’s draft budget, released on Oct. 23.

The increase for rural homeowners is slightly smaller – a 1.9 per cent increase for an average of $55 extra per home.

Residential garbage fees would be held at $82 and recreation fees will continue to be frozen – a promise the mayor made during his election campaign in 2010.

The equivalent of 55 full-time jobs would be eliminated without layoffs if the budget passes.

All of those positions were vacated by employees leaving or retiring in the last six months and the city is not keeping them open for future hires.

Budget includes money for Carp Road resurfacing Continued from front

Next year is also when residents and businesses will see a number of key city services go online: the MyServiceOttawa online account will let people view and pay water and tax bills online, as well as apply for a number of licences and permits. A mobile app for 311 service requests is also in the works.

With a large glut of Ottawa on the Move road and sewer construction projects as well as the first phase of light rail out of the way, the city isn’t planning many large new construction projects, so the city won’t have to take on any additional debt in 2014, Mayor Jim Watson said. The city does plan to take out new debt equivalent to the amount of debt it will retire from its books in 2014, said city treasurer Marian Simulik.

Supergirls The Fitzroy Harbour Community Association hosted hundreds of ghouls, goblins and other characters at the Halloween party Oct. 26. Above, Dunrobin superhero sisters Stella Zavitske, left, and Bridget Zavitske strike a pose. The event included a haunted walk courtesy of the West Carleton School of Performing Arts.

The draft budget includes more than $11 million to break ground on the west section of the Transitway to connect Bayshore Station to Moodie Drive. Environmental studies of proposed light-rail extensions from Lincoln Fields to Bayshore are also on the books.

A major road project to extend Campeau Drive in Kanata – part of the recent transportation master plan – would get a $31million boost as part of the draft budget. It would see Campeau extended west from Didsbury Road to Huntmar Drive.

The draft budget also contains money to extend Country Club Road (Gold Club Way) to Jinkinson Road. There is also

money to upgrade Klondike Road to an urban road between March and Sandhill roads.

The Fitzroy Station bridge over the Carp River would get repairs and upgrades to help the bridge withstand earthquakes.

A $1.2 million renewal of the Prince of Wales Drive and Nepean Creek bridge culvert in Knoxdale-Merivale Ward would be completed. The city also plans to do $3.9 million in water and sewer work on Sherry Lane and Brent Avenue.

Ottawa on the Move will continue with 150 projects hitting the ground in 2014 In the west end, roads to be resurfaced include: * Sections of Carling Avenue * Richmond Road * Baseline Road * West Hunt Club Road * Meadowlands Drive * Corkstown Road * Carp Road, Beverly Street * Panmure Road * Diamondview Road * Maclarens Side Road * Palomino Drive * Dunhaven Drive * Beverly Street * Iris Street * Westcliffe Road * Knoxdale Road * Carp Road Overall, the city plans to spend $45 million to resurface roads in 2014 and an additional $4 million to improve traffic flow through key intersections during rush hour, including West Hunt Club Road at Merivale Road and at Woodroffe Avenue.

A new park-and-ride lot on Innovation Drive in Kanata is planned to be funded in the draft budget.

New sidewalks are planned to be built on Katimavik Road from Davis Avenue to the multi-use pathway, on Klondike Road from March Road to Sandhill Road and on the south side of Meadowlands Drive from Fisher Avenue to Apeldoorn Avenue.

Other pedestrian improvements planned for the west end include sidewalk replacement on sections of Richmond Road as well as Castlefrank Road and Winchester Drive.

Cycling facilities would see $2 million in improvements in 2014.

PARKS AND REC Two new facilities will open in the west end in 2014: the Richcraft Recreation Complex in north Kanata and the Beaverbrook branch of the public library. Additional staff for those facilities is included in the draft 2014 budget.

There are five new parks on the books for 2014.

Overall the city plans to spend $2 million to improve accessibility in its parks and buildings, including: Bob MacQuarrie Recreation Complex, Blackburn Community Centre and Cyrville Community Centre.

For libraries, the city is planning to permanently increase its annual budget for ebooks by $50,000. The planned expansion of the Constance Bay library branch, in partnership with the local community association, would also go ahead.

Sandhills Soiree and Fundraiser to feature fashion show, silent auction and more Theresa Fritz theresa.fritz@metroland.com

Community – Good food, wine, fashion and more are the perfect ingredients for an evening of fun and fundraising in Constance Bay. And that is exactly what those attending the Sandhills Soiree and Fundraiser can expect when they attend the Constance and Buckham’s Bay Community Centre Nov. 2. from 6-10 p.m. The event is a fundraiser for Project Sandhills – a community campaign underway to raise funds to expand the local community centre and library. The total project is estimated at $1.9 million dollars. Of this amount, the community contribution will be between $500,000 and

$750,000.

“The soiree will feature local businesses and artisans where attendees can start or finish their Christmas shopping, a fashion show, silent auction and prize draws,” said Shannon Spallin, one of the event’s organizers.

“The fashion show will include clothing, jewelry and accessories, handbags, including hair and makeup for some of the models... all the appetizers for the evening are being generously provided by The Greystone Grill in Constance Bay.” Spallin and fellow event organizers Cindy Raley, Jan Rulliere, Kathy Partridge wanted to raise funds for the Sandhills project but in a unique way.

All the funds raised at the Sand-

hills Soiree from the local business registrations, silent auction and prize draws through ticket sales, will go directly Project Sandhills.

“We have worked very hard as a team,” said Spallin. “Our goal was to have 30 vendors participate which alone provided $1,200 from the registrations. Outside of that, we didn’t have a goal other than to raise as much as we could with the mindset of every little bit helps.”

Although this fundraising event is being held on the same evening at a roast for West Carleton-March Coun. Eli El-Chantiry, which is also a fundraiser for Project Sandhills, Spallin and her crew are not concerned one event will impact another.

“We don’t feel it (roast) will have too big of an impact, as our

event is free for all local residents and community members to attend,” she said.

While the Constance and Buckham’s Bay Community Association (CBBCA) is the driving force behind Project Sandhills, CBBCA past president Len Russell said the association cannot take credit for all the fundraising events taking place to support the initiative.

“The soiree, the monster book sale, the poker run earlier in the summer, and a lot of other initiatives are all fundraising activities driven by people across the community. The CBBCA will get us close to the goal but it is the residents, individuals and groups, who will make the project succeed; donors, organizers, golfers, walkers,” Russell said.

Building never received heritage status Continued from front

“Because this building never received heritage designation, it cannot be saved at this point,” Makin said. “If nothing else, then I think it’s a lesson learned.”

Makin said no one can assume a building will be spared just because of its age. She said the community association will take a hard look at other sites in the area that could benefit from a heritage designation.

“If there are any heritage sites in our community that we feel should be protected, we must work with the city to establish a heritage designation,” she said in an email to members.

West Carleton-March Coun.

El-Chantiry said he didn’t know about the demolition until he received emails from residents. After checking into the background, he said the Fuller family, who own the building, applied for a permit to demolish the structure on Oct. 22.

“We checked with the staff.

They told us it wasn’t a heritage building, not even on the list,” said El-Chantiry. “The building wasn’t in good condition.”

He said there have been no applications to the city to build something else on the site.

“We don’t have anything on record except for the permit to demolish the site,” El-Chantiry said.

The McMurtry Tannery,

where leather was processed in the mid-1800s, had fallen into a state of ruin – the roof was caving in and stones were crumbling from around the windows.

“It’s not in good shape but the residents are fond of it,” said Makin.

The tannery was once part of the old village of Lewisville, now known as South March. It survived the great fire of the late-1800s that ravaged the Ottawa Valley, according to a report on a website run by Paul Renaud, a local environmentalist with an interest in the South March Highlands.

Vandenberg & Wildeboer Architects designed the facility and architect Ralph Vandenburg was on hand to provide insight into its vision.

He said the wood and stone used is to reflect historic building materials and the abundance of glass represents water. Photographs were taken of heritage buildings throughout the area, primarily old mills, to use for inspiration. “We quickly realized those simple spaces were made primarily of stone and wood,� Vandenberg said.

Being environmentally conscious was a big part of the process. Ways this was achieved was to attach outbuildings or workshops to save on heating costs and having separate heating and cooling pads for the three areas of the building (public area, administration and workshop). “It’s a detailed design,� Vandenberg remarked. “The main part of the

building is oriented to the south and there are huge windows which lets all kinds of natural light in and there are sun shades to mitigate heat gain.�

Green build standards were used and some of the features include energy efficient lighting; water efficient landscaping; collecting rainwater that runs off the roof to be used for washing vehicles and field equipment; minimizing stormwater runoff and maximizing on-site retention and infiltration; as well as lower energy use

News – After 31 years away from Carleton Place, the Mississippi Valley Conservation Authority (MVCA) is back in town and celebrated the opening of its new state-of-the-art facility Oct. 18.

Known as the Mississippi Valley Conservation Centre, the wood pillars, stone work and wall-to-wall windows cut an imposing figure along Highway 7 where the building is situated in Roy Brown Park. During the afternoon event, guests filled the centre’s large lobby and were treated to refreshments and hors d’oeuvres before heading into the spacious meeting room for remarks. “It’s been a long journey, but it was made possible entirely by the financial support of municipalities and many groups and individuals also contributed to the success which we celebrate today,� noted MVCA board chair Mark Burnham.

Much thought went into the design and features of the 17,000 square foot space, which carried an overall project cost of $5.9 million with construction costs making up $4.8 million. Its proximity to the Mississippi River puts it in an attractive position to further public education and enhance watershed conservation programs.

According to MVCA general manager Paul Lehman, the road towards realizing the new facility has taken more than six years. “When we embarked on this project...I didn’t realize how long the process would be,� he admitted.

He thanked the Township of Lanark Highlands for hosting the MVCA in with the Ministry of Natural Resources since early 1982, before which it was housed in the Victoria School building in Carleton Place. “We eventually outgrew that space on Highway 511 and the board faced a number of decisions,� he stated.

Lehman said the Tiree company of Ottawa evaluated the existing office facilities, prepared a feasibility assessment and conducted an extensive search of location. Many different site options were explored before the MVCA settled on the piece of land in Roy Brown Park, which was proposed by Township of Beckwith reeve Richard Kidd. “One day Richard arrived at one of our board meetings and suggested Roy Brown Park and suddenly we had an agreement,� Burnham confirmed. Carleton Place had to annex the land from Beckwith in order to sell it to the MVCA. “There were exceptional advantages (to the property), in terms of visibility and accessibility,� Lehman added.

He credited the building committee, formed to help with the design/construction phase with keeping things on task, as well as the invaluable advice of project manager Cliff Craig, who also helped oversee the

committee and is a member of the due to efficient mechanical systems. “I believe we have designed a fa- board of directors.

News - Lynne Rowe, founder of the Constance Creek Wildlife Refuge, is opening her doors on Nov. 3 to allow the public a hands-on experience with her rescued farm animals.

The event will feature tours of the farm, as well as a bake and garage sale to raise funds for the animals’ needs.

“People can come and stop by and see what we do,” said Rowe. “They can do an educational tour, go right in with the animals to meet them … and learn about our programs.”

The Constance Creek Wildlife Refuge was voted the non-profit of the year in West Carleton during the 2013 Kanata Chamber of Commerce People’s Choice Business Awards.

“We’re really grateful,” she said.

Rowe houses a number of rescued goats, alpacas, horses and ponies and pigs, as well as domesticated animals like dogs, cats, rabbits and guinea pigs.

“I want to make the public more aware of what we offer,” she said.

Rowe offers educational tours by appointment, as well as summer camps for youth and community service hours for high school students. This year’s camp was extremely successful, she said.

“It’s entirely hands-on,” Rowe added. “The families that participate find it really special.”

time learning about the natural environment, said Rowe.

“There’s a huge amount that they will take away from the program.”

Last winter, Rowe fostered a number of her goats, ponies and alpacas, which helped reduce the burden on the sanctuary. She’s hoping to do the same this year, as well as find people who are willing to make small monthly donations to keep the centre running.

“Ten bucks a month from 50 different people could make a huge difference for us,” she said. “It all depends on support from the community … there’s no government funding.”

WILDLIFE

The open farm is also a chance for people to learn about Rowe’s ongoing vision for a wildlife centre.

The Dunrobin woman has been trying to get a license with the Ministry of Natural Resources to take in injured or orphaned wildlife, but so far her application hasn’t been approved. Her hope is to open a wildlife rehabilitation centre that will deal with fawns and small mammals.

“We have to think about how we want our city to respond to these things,” she said, citing an elk that was shot in Ottawa, and a fawn shot in Gatineau, earlier this fall. “There has to be a co-ordinated response.”

She said having trained wildlife custodians who are able to attend those calls could have potentially resulted in a different outcome in both cases.

“It could have been dealt with a different way,” she said.

She said she’s received a number of calls about injured wildlife but without a license, is limited in what she can do. In the summer, Rowe helped rescue a fawn that was trapped in a fence.

“It was really wedged badly and exhausting itself trying to get out,” she said. “We were able to cut the fence and release it.”

The open farm will take place from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m. at 2494 Dunrobin Rd. Rowe said she’s also planning a Christmas craft fair for Dec. 1, but needs to find a venue. For more information or to donate online, visit ccwr. ca or search Constance Creek Wildlife Refuge on Facebook.

Cody slips his collar and runs like the wind DIANA FISHER Accidental Farmwife lowed by a drive around the block. I worried I would find him in a ditch somewhere, because he is not at all roadsmart. But the next day I found him, at Big Sky Ranch.

He had spent the night in an outdoor cage beside a lovely Boxer dog and a German Shepherd. He seemed quite anxious to go home and sleep off his adventures.

I paid the fee to get him back, and had the Farmer tighten his collar so he can’t escape so easily again. But I suspect if he really wants to go he will, for it’s in his nature.

Background In January 2012, the City of Ottawa initiated a study to establish a new snow disposal facility in the City’s west end. The City’s strategic snow disposal plan (2002) had identified the need to provide for 308,000 m3 of disposal capacity within one or more snow disposal facilities in the west end. This MCEA study was conducted as a Schedule B project in accordance with the requirements of the Municipal Class Environmental Assessment, as amended 2011, an approved process under the Environmental Assessment Act. The Process Public Open House (POH#1) was held in February 2013 to present the problem definition. Public Open House # 2 was held August 6th 2013 to present the results of the various site investigations undertaken during 2012/2013 to characterize the site and the environment; identify the alternative designs and mitigative measures being evaluated; and describe the recommended preferred design/solution. Both POHs were held at the Goulbourn Municipal Building Council Chambers at 2135 Huntley Road, Ottawa ON. Information presented at the POHs is available on the City of Ottawa website (see below for link).

The recommended solution involves the development of a snow disposal facility (SDF) on a 23.4ha property located at civic address 2125 Carp Road that can accommodate approximately 350,000 m3 of snow collected from Kanata and nearby areas. The SDF development will include a 1-2ha meltwater pond to treat the runoff from the snow melt and a 4-5ha stormwater pond to treat storm water from on-site and off-site sources. Several mitigative measures have been proposed to minimize impacts from the SDF development and include a right-turn deceleration lane along Westbrook road, improving drainage beneath Westbrook Road, construction of a berm along the east property limit to mitigate noise, landscaping along the east and north limits for visual screening, and a liner beneath the meltwater pond and its outlet to protect groundwater quality.

Lifestyle - He is what you might call a bad dog. An un-trainable dog.

But I have that recessive gene that just makes this quality more endearing to me. Something about Cody and the way he completely ignores me, even has me checking his hearing, just makes me like him more.

Cody is lucky that I appreciate this primal element of his personality. Because he has tested my patience to the limit in the seven years I have known him. Cody is closer to 14-years-old, by the way. If the rule of ‘dog years’ is upheld, that makes him about 98years- old. Far too old to be pulling me on the end of his leash as we do our three-to-five kilometre walk in the afternoons. Far too old to be jumping over fences, off balconies and into idling cars the moment the door is opened. And yet he does.

In his simple mind, he is still a pup. And so he pulls, and jumps, and races. Sometimes, in the extreme heat of the summer, he walks a little more slowly on the way home, allowing me to catch up. But then he has to stop at every ditch, pond and swamp puddle along the road to quench his thirst and cool his hide. To date I have not been pulled in with him, but it has been a struggle.

One day I was writing in my office, next door to the kitchen, when I heard a sharp “Bang.” I got up and walked into the kitchen. At first I didn’t see anything amiss. I took another step and peered around the corner into the living room. Cody was there where I had left him, apparently still sleeping on his rug on the floor. Then I noticed the cutting board, lying on the kitchen floor. The cutting board that, when I left the kitchen earlier, had a defrosting boneless rib roast sitting on it. I picked up the board. It appeared to have been licked clean. I looked around the kitchen island for the missing rib roast.

I walked into the living room and gave the dozing dog a nudge with my foot. The folds of his blanket-rug held no roast. Behind the couch: no meat.

Under the coffee table: only dust bunnies. Where was my roast? Just then Cody burped. The rest of the night he seemed to be quite uncomfortable from a digestive perspective, but we never saw any trace of what was meant to be our Sunday dinner. He’s kind of weirdly magical that way.

I didn’t think Cody would be able to walk the entire 5k loop of our road with me but the cooler weather has invigorated him and he has learned to maintain an easier pace. He loves our walks. So much so, that he decided not to wait for me one night, and took off on his own. He just pulled on his stretched-out collar and suddenly he was free. Someone likely saw my bad dog trotting down the middle of County Road 20 and pulled over. When they opened their car door, I imagine he hopped right in.

I was pretty worried when we couldn’t find Cody, even after a survey of the neighbours and a slow walk fol-

Calm amidst political storms

I

f for no other reason, Ottawa’s city council should be applauded for bringing a muchneeded dose of stability to an otherwise messy political scene with its 2014 draft budget tabled last week.

Amid the gusting winds of a Senate scandal on Parliament Hill and the simmering gas plant saga surrounding the minority Liberals at Queen’s Park, voters in this city should be thankful that, at a minimum, there is stability on Laurier Avenue.

For the fourth year running, the council led by Mayor Jim Watson has presented a budget that has managed to keep the accompanying property tax hike below 2.5 per cent (the hike will be a mere 1.9 per cent in 2014 if the plan passes). That is no easy feat, especially considering the wide-ranging scope of infrastructure and transportation-related projects either underway or being planned across the city.

But with an election only a year away, what is in store for Ottawans when the bills start arriving for the grand vision that is the transportation master plan (also in draft form currently) and things like Canada’s 150th birthday celebration? Will modest tax increases still be a viable option when it’s time to fund rail to OrlÊans (and Riverside South, Algonquin College and Bayshore)?

The sesquicentennial is something that shouldn’t be underestimated in the years to come: yes the federal and provincial governments will pick up much of the tab, but the temptation will be strong for municipal politicians to make their mark when the country celebrates a century and a half of Confederation.

And what of political ambition? Next October voters head back to the polls to pass judgement on this council and those seeking to supplant the current class of civic leaders. Will fiscal prudence be enough to sway the hearts and minds of Ottawa? Or will a new, more expensive vision win the day?

New parks, community centres, libraries, arenas, baseball diamonds, soccer fields and cycling lanes are things that many people want, yet are often told the city can’t afford. Who is to say voters couldn’t be sold on an extra one per cent on their tax bill in exchange for such civic improvements.

The next election will doubtlessly be a referendum on Watson, especially his tight control over the city’s purse strings. This doesn’t mean he won’t change his tune by the time election season gets underway late next summer, but it would be surprising if he did.

In the meantime, residents should rest easy knowing scandal and chaos are nowhere to be found at city hall – just business as usual.

Fighting the curse of sameness a challenge for the city

I

t’s a rather abstract concept for city planners and city councils to think about, but one of the biggest threats to any city, including ours, is the curse of sameness.

Sameness has the power of the economic system behind it, not to mention certain cultural forces as well.

To illustrate, look at a recent headline in the Globe and Mail: “Put away your sou’wester. Chic is the new norm in Newfoundland’s big city – so are espresso bars and restaurants with a refined culinary focus.�

Inside, the article begins: “Ten years go, it was impossible to get a decent cup of coffee in downtown St. John’s.â€? But, the article cheerfully goes on, oil-driven economic prosperity has changed all that: “It’s hard to walk for a block on Water Street, the city’s main drag, without hitting a slick cafĂŠ.â€?

You’ll note the sense of relief here, in that “all across the city, there’s a newfound sense of urban cosmopolitanism that seems to have everyone a bit gobsmacked.�

In other words, St. John’s could be becoming more like Toronto. Is that good? Perhaps it is if you’re from another place and your

West Carleton Review !URIGA $RIVE 3UITE /TTAWA /. + % "

613-723-5970 Published weekly by:

CHARLES GORDON Funny Town priority is finding a cup of coffee. But not so much if you live there and want your town to keep its identity. And not so much if you’re from another town and want to see a place that’s different from the one you came from.

Sameness is not an overnight thing. It has been creeping in for decades, beginning in the suburbs and working its way downtown.

I remember visiting St. John’s 25 years ago and walking around a mall looking for something Newfoundlandesque to bring home as a present. I couldn’t find anything. Everything in that mall I could have found at Bayshore.

But then, malls do that. Generally speaking, the stores in them are part of national or continental chains. The merchandise comes from elsewhere.

Although many city cores, including, actually, St. John’s, retain their distinctiveness, the suburban sameness trend has intensified in the past 25 years, propelled by the big box store and the power centre. If you went to, say, the Centrum in Kanata, you could just as easily be in a suburb of Birmingham, Alabama as in a suburb of Ottawa, Ontario.

There is probably no fighting this. Free trade, globalization – all today’s economic forces push it. It doesn’t help that we, the consumers, are doing some pushing of our own, demanding the same products, the same services, the same slick cafÊs that are available elsewhere.

We also want all the same television shows and with them, we see the same advertisements for the same products that are seen everywhere else.

Given all that, it is a wonder that anything distinctive survives anywhere. Still, it is an incentive to protect what we can of the things that separate one community from another.

There is more to city life than slick cafĂŠs.

At the very least we can make our slick cafÊs different from other cities’ slick cafÊs.

It comes down to protecting and encouraging local owners. How this is to be done is

not easy to figure out or someone would have figured it out by now. We sort of know what not to do. We know not to say yes to every developer who wants to put a condo where a theatre was. But we don’t know where to find the courage to say it.

We know not to let commercial rents rise so high that only chains can afford to pay them. But again, we haven’t found a way to do that.

We know we should be encouraging local shoppers to shop local, but again, how do we do that, particularly when the chains are selling stuff cheaper?

Why our local Blue Jays won’t be blue this winter Lifestyle - One of the most familiar bird is the Blue Jay. Its bright colours, noisy vocalizations, and bold behaviour have long been noted: the great ornithologist Alexander Wilson wrote in 1831: “(the Blue Jay) is distinguished as a kind of beau among feathered tenants of our woods, by the brilliancy of his dress; and like most other coxcombs, makes himself still more conspicuous by his loquacity, and the oddness of his tones and gestures.”

This fall Blue Jays are present in large numbers and I suspect many will stay for the winter.

This is because oaks have produced massive crops of acorns, a food jays love to stash away for leaner times.

But Blue Jays aren’t here in large numbers every winter. When hardwoods produce small seed crops, most head south. When larger crops are produced, fewer migrate.

This variable migration is unlike that of small warblers, which consistently

Support to assist with costs of son’s needs appreciated by family Theresa Fritz theresa.fritz@metroland.com Community – Malcolm McLarty is a busy 12-year-old boy. He likes school, loves going to the movies, playing basketball, playing the piano and hitting the slopes in the winter.

But unlike other boys, Malcolm faces the challenge of living with spastic quadriplegic cerebral palsy.

He doesn’t let the condition slow him down but as he grows, so too do the financial pressures faced by his family to provide him with what he needs to get around.

To that end, a bottle drive organized by his mother Louise Oct. 19 outside Huntley Centennial School in Carp was designed to help raise funds to make the family’s van wheelchair accessible.

At 85 pounds, Malcolm is simply too heavy for his mother to lift from his wheelchair into the van.

“The school really supported me doing this. The school put the bottle drive in the newsletter,” Louise said.

The bottle drive raised an incredible $2,000 and Louise was amazed by the

support the family received.

“It (bottle drive) was over the top.

I was blown away by the support we received,” Louise said.

From the Huntley Community Association advertising the drive on their sign outside the Waste Management facility on Carp Road, to West CarletonMarch Coun. Eli El-Chantiry stopping by after completing the 9-RUN-RUN event in Stittsville and giving Malcolm his medal, the McLartys couldn’t have asked for a better day.

Malcolm and his twin brother were born prematurely at 24 weeks.

Both remained in hospital for several months but Malcolm’s disability was evident immediately. His brother does not have the condition.

“Malcolm got his first wheelchair at the age of three and never looked back.

“He was such a daredevil. He jumped curbs,” his mother noted. “He is very social. He is the extrovert. He loves people. He loves being out.”

Currently in Grade 7 at Huntley Centennial, Malcolm is doing well in school.

“They (school) have got amazing things (in place) to make things easier.

The aides and teachers are wonderful,” Louise said.

The McLartys have called the Carp area home for the past five years, having moved there from Nova Scotia.

While the move brought them closer to family – the twins were born in Ontario – it also provided them greater access to programs that would be beneficial as Malcolm got older.

“The Adaptive Devices Program is huge for us,” said Louise, noting the program helps with the costs of Malcolm’s wheelchair and other equipment he needs. “His first power wheelchair cost more than our car,” she said.

With a power wheelchair costing around $12,000, families like the McLartys appreciate the fact there is a program in place that will cover 75 per cent of the cost. That along with insurance, means there is coverage for all kinds of needs. However, there are still many out of pocket costs the family is responsible for.

A new seat for Malcolm’s wheelchair costs thousands while an adap-

tive walker costs $7,000.

“This is not a luxury, this is part of living,” said Louise.

The van is the biggest priority and it now been sent away to be modified and the McLartys hope to have it back

by Christmas. There is no funding program available for this conversion so they have put some of the money up front, and hope to have the rest in place when it returns to them.

The lift in the van will allow Malcolm to get himself in and out of it making trips to the movies, museum or just about anywhere much easier.

The van conversion is costing $24,055 and they have received some funding from Easter Seals, the bottle drive, Huntley Community Association and others. However, they need to raise some more.

As such, Louise is working on another fundraiser – a bake sale and silent auction. A neighbour is working with her to find a venue to hold an event.

A bank account has been set up so anyone wishing to assist Malcolm can do so. It is at the Bank of Nova Scotia

Community - The weekend of Oct. 19-20 was the highlight of the yearlong celebration of the 150th anniversary of St. George’s Anglican Church in Fitzroy Harbour.

On Saturday, Oct. 19 an anniversary dinner was held at the Fitzroy Harbour Community Centre. Special guests included the Primate of the Anglican Church of Canada, the Most Rev. Fred Hiltz, the Rt. Rev. John Chapman, Bishop of Diocese of Ottawa, and the Rt. Rev. Suheil Dawani, Bishop of the Diocese of Jerusalem and the Middle East. The Diocese of Jerusalem is a special partner of the Diocese of Ottawa. Former rectors of St’ George’s and representatives of St. Andrew’s United Church and St. Michael’s Roman Catholic Church , the other two churches in the village, brought greetings to the capacity crowd. Although West Carleton-March Coun.

Eli El-Chantiry was unable to attend, he had arranged for a plaque of congratulations from the City of Ottawa to be presented.

In addition to the address by Archbishop Hiltz and greetings and presentations from Bishop Chapman and Bishop Dawani, those attending were entertained by young people of the congregation , Ivan Weir, Baron Tessier and Jeremy Scott, who presented a skit based on a legend of St. George and the Dragon, as told by Pat Weir and Laura Scott.

News - It was a once-in-alifetime experience.

Warrant officer Rianna Warren, a member of the Royal Canadian Army Cadets 2360 Arnprior and a resident of Constance Bay, is among a handful of cadets chosen to go to Rideau Hall for the presentation of the first poppy to Governor General David Johnston.

The national annual poppy campaign opened with the Oct. 10 event, to which only three cadets of each of the three elements - army, air and navy - were invited. “I was very honoured to be selected out of all the cadets,� said the West Carleton Secondary student.

She was extremely impressed with Rideau Hall. “I was walking up to the house just looking all around.

It was gorgeous,� she said.

This is Warren’s fifth year in cadets and it has been an all-around great experience. “Cadets has helped me out in so many ways,� she said.

From friendships and job opportunities to an idea for a career path - the organization is one more young people should consider joining, said Warren.

She is currently completing a full-day co-op placement with the Ottawa Police Service with an eye on a career with the military police force.

Media liaison Patrick Simmonds said the cadets organization is extremely proud of Warren and her accomplishments.

In his speech, Johnston thanked those who serve the country so well. “The poppy that we wear each year is a powerful and universal symbol of our promise to our men and women of the Canadian Armed Forces.

Never shall we forget what you have done and never shall we shirk our responsibility to do so,� he said.

The local poppy campaign begins this weekend with Legion members and volunteers out at various locations with poppy boxes. The campaign wraps up with annual Remembrance Day services Nov. 9 in Constance Bay and Nov. 11 in Arnprior.

Workshop gives residents chance to plan new community Protecting trees, widening of March Road, and buffers against existing communities top list Jessica Cunha jessica.cunha@metroland.com

News - Residents had the opportunity to be planners for an evening, creating designs for a new residential community in north Kanata as part of the urban boundary expansion.

Everyone participating at one of 12 tables was given a map of the area, along with cutouts of needed infrastructure, markers and tracer sheets. Each table had to include storm water management ponds, four schools (one for each board), six parks, a library and a 300- or 500lot park-and-ride facility.

“For one night you all get to be planners,” said Kanata North Coun. Marianne Wilkinson.

“Show us exactly what you’d like to see on this property.”

A number of tables wanted to see a forested area to the east of March Road bordering the rail line kept intact.

“It’s a wildlife destination,” said Marjorie Edwards, member of the March Rural Commu-

nity Association. “It needs to be protected.”

Murray Chown, project manager with Novatech Engineering working on the housing project, said it’s possible to keep the trees by creating higher density elsewhere in the community.

Other tables wanted to ensure March Road is widened to Dunrobin Road to accommodate an increase in vehicles.

West-Carleton Coun. Eli El-Chantiry said the expansion of March Road to Dunrobin Road has been taken out of the transportation master plan, but that he and Wilkinson are working to get it back on the table.

“We’re trying to put it back on the TMP,” he said. “You can’t put 8,500 people in this area without widening March Road.”

The widening of March Road was originally in the 2008 transportation master plan, and its environmental assessment is complete.

Another idea was to break March Road into two sections around a central hub area that would have a community park, a park-and-ride

facility, high-density housing and retail in the centre of the road break.

“It makes it a destination,” said John Penner, a Morgan’s Grant resident and member of the public advisory committee for the new community, adding that by breaking the street, “it gives you a high-speed road.”

WESTBORO ATMOSPHERE

The lands are bordered by Old Carp Road, Windance and Celtic Ridge crescents, Murphy Court, Nadia Court, Houston Crescent and the rail corridor. The minimum density for the area is 34 units per net residential hectare, which doesn’t include space set aside for infrastructure, parks, schools or commercial structures.

Table four wanted to see the new community incorporate a “Westboro-type atmosphere” with a mixture of high-density residential units, retail and park space.

“It would be nice to avoid a Merivale-like corridor,” said a resident.

Others wanted to ensure there were proper buffers, such as trees and low-density housing, in place between existing communities and the new area.

“I really appreciate the opportunity to give input at an earlier stage,” said north Kanata resident Evelyn Abell. “I’m pleased to see the commonality among such a diverse group.”

Around 75 people took part in the March Road expansion workshop, held on Oct. 24 in the parish hall at St. Isidore Church.

“What I was really impressed with was how people really got into (it),” said Wilkinson.

“Every table is different … That’s what we want to see and come up with a plan that meets the city’s density requirements and is still liveable.”

El-Chantiry said it was good to see residents engaged in the future of the area.

“I think it was a very high-level (of) discussion at the tables,” he said.

Learn how to make a great holiday centrepiece Lifestyle - If you’ve ever wondered how to put together your own holiday arrangement but don’t know where to start, here’s your chance.

The owner of Bumble Bee Blooms Flower and Gift Shop at The Hive in Carp will take you through the steps at the next meeting of the West Carleton Garden Club on Tuesday, Nov. 12.

Denise Burnham is a self-taught floral designer who has been gardening for more than 20 years. She’ll demonstrate ideas for incorporating birch bark into your holiday arrangements, creating two designs in oasis as well as a living arrangement using tropical house plants. As a bonus, she’ll also show you how you can combine

items from your own property with unexpected feature flowers to create something unique.

“It’s all a matter of balancing things out and just using materials in a different way,” says Burnham, who is also part of the garden club’s executive.

She will go step by step through the process to properly build an arrangement, keeping in mind balance and structure and “using maybe some different flowers and different accents that you would never think of using otherwise.”

She’ll also offer tips on how to create a longlasting base of greenery that you can refresh with new feature flowers every time you have a dinner

party or event, storing your pot of greenery outdoors in between.

She appreciates the effectiveness of combining cut flowers with what you have around your yard that you may not think of as being a design element.

“You can incorporate it into something that looks amazing if you pair it with other things,” she says. “It’s a fun project for people to do.”

The garden club meets at 7:30 p.m. at the Carp Memorial Hall, at the corner of Carp Road and Donald B. Munro Drive. The cost is $5 for nonmembers. For details about the club, visit sites. google.com/site/westcarletongardenclub.

Grade 4 Ottawa student wins Family Channel’s Stand Up! Rally Contest News – The message is simple, if you see someone being bullied Stand UP! In attempt to get the student’s voice into the anti-bullying conversation Family Channel reached out to students across the country asking students how they Stand UP! against bullying at their school as part of their annual Stand UP! Rally Contest.~The response was phenomenal.

Hundreds of submissions were received but one –won – in Ottawa. Grade 4, Knoxdale Public School student, Rachel Shugar

let the judges know, that at her school of 540 students, over 40 different languages are spoken at home and there is great pride in the multicultural school population.

School principal Martina Sherwood says her students and staff enjoy sharing their ethnic origins and religious beliefs and learning from one another’s similarities and differences. Rachel is one of three winners nationally who had a Family Channel visit her school Oct. 30 as a result of her entry.

Shugar’s submission detailed how important it is to work with

school and family in preventing bullying. She outlined concrete examples of what happens at her school including: notes in the agenda, phone calls, parent meetings and recognition for good deeds. “We are so proud of Rachel at Knoxdale! Knoxdale’s participation in the Family Channel’s Stand UP! Bullying Prevention Rally is a chance for us to celebrate all of the wonderful things that happen at our school everyday. As a school community we pride ourselves on our community of character, � said Sherwood.

Explore sexy side of nature at gala dinner with Michael Runtz Lifestyle - Nature wears many faces. She can be beautiful. She can be graceful. She can also seem uncaring and even harsh. But nature also has a very sexy side to her.

Join Michael Runtz for an intimate and highly visual look at the fascinating mating rituals of animals.

From love songs to sexy perfumes and nuptial gifts, animals use many means to meet that special someone.

The Mississippi Madawaska Land Trust Conservancy (MMLTC) invites you, and maybe that special someone, to a fundraising gala dinner on Friday, Nov. 8 at the Almonte Civitan Club. Runtz’s presentation will be the highlight of the evening which will also feature a Silent Auction offering a wide range of useful and interesting items, with an emphasis on services, ranging from weekends in the woods to private gourmet dinners to guided walks.

Michael Runtz is one of Canada’s most highly respected naturalists, nature photographers and natu-

ral history authors. Eleven best-selling publications offer evidence of his passion, knowledge and stunning photography.

His infectious and enthusiastic teaching style attracts thousands of students annually to his natural history course at Carleton University for which he has received awards for teaching excellence from students and peers alike.

But nowhere does Runtz feel more at home than in the natural world itself – howling with the elusive wolf, digging out salamanders from under a rotting log, luring in rutting moose with his skillful calls, or capturing speeding dragonflies with his net. His rich personal encounters with nature provide enlightening and highly amusing anecdotes for his listeners.

The Mississippi Madawaska Land Trust conserves exceptional natural spaces for future generations, including High Lonesome nature Reserve, Blueberry Mountain and Rose Hill Nature Reserve.

MMLTC is legally required

to care for the properties for 1000 years and all proceeds from this fundraising event will be used to do that.

The gala begins at 6:00 p.m. with dinner served at 7 p.m. Dress is gala natural (i.e. polish your hiking boots or dress to the nines).

The Almonte Civitan Club is located at 500 Almonte St. (Wolf Grove Rd). Tickets are $30, cheque or cash only, available at Hello Yellow in Almonte, Read’s Book Shop in Carleton Place, Village Treats in Lanark, Shadowfax in Perth, Pakenham General Store, and Arnprior Book Shop.

For your convenience, you may also call 613278-2939 to reserve tickets for pick-up at the door or to request special dietary requirements.

Mayor calls for feds, province to be partners in light rail

Transit, cycling will be key to Ottawa’s economic future: Watson Laura Mueller laura.mueller@metroland.com

News - Mayor Jim Watson called for co-operation from the federal and provincial levels of government to build the extended light-rail system he envisions.

In an address on Ottawa’s economic outlook delivered to local business leaders on Oct. 24, Watson said the proposed Stage 2 plan to bring light rail east to Place d’Orléans, west to Bayshore and Baseline stations and to bring the O-Train south to Bowesville can only happen if the upper levels of government are on board.

“The federal and provincial governments were excellent team players with the first phase of light rail,” Watson said. “We are counting on them to continue to be our partners.”

The mayor called out Orléans MP Royal Galipeau for suggesting the city write to Santa Claus for funding for the project shortly after it was announced.

“Well, you know, Santa made a pre-Christmas visit to Toronto and gave them $660 million for a three-stop subway extension,” the mayor retorted during his speech.

Ottawa only wants its fair share of the federal government’s infrastructure funding program, which will dole out $53.5 billion for infrastructure projects across Canada for the next decade.

Ottawa’s $975-million ask of the federal government represents two per cent of the federal infrastructure fund – less than Ottawa’s proportion of the country’s population, which is three per cent.

“I expect our local MPs will work with us to ensure our city gets its fair share as well,” Watson said.

He urged politicians in other levels of government to look beyond the next election to the next generation that could benefit from the transit system.

“Projects like this one are bigger than any one mayor, premier or prime minister,” Watson said.

The mayor also had a message for people who don’t see the value of a $3 billion investment in the next phase of light rail.

Pitting drivers against transit users and cyclists is a debate of the past, Watson said.

“Our economic future is too important to resort to such old-school arguments,” he said.

Even those who could never see themselves hopping on a train, bus or bike can see the benefit of one less car in front of them on the highway, Watson said.

Promoting other forms of transportation helps prevent gridlock and keep goods and services moving, he said.

“It is in our economic interest to get more people on the bus, and more people walking and cycling,” Watson said.

Insecticide linked to mass die-off of bees Derek Dunn derek.dunn@metroland.com

News â&#x20AC;&#x201C; About 30 per cent of bee colonies were lost last spring; the second year in a row for mass die-offs.

The federal government has linked large-scale farming practices to the decline of insects that pollinate $2 billion worth of fruit and vegetables every year.

In September Health Canadaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Pest Management Regulatory Agency (PMRA) issued to farmers a series of recommendations against certain insecticides known as neonicotinoids.

Is it enough to recommend against the usage of neonicotinoids? *** Dwight Foster is a farmer in North Gower. Heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s been scratching a living off the land for many years. A grain farmer with 4,000 acres â&#x20AC;&#x201C; and a feed lot with 1,500 head of cattle â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Foster canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t underestimate how crucial insecticides are to his operation. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The seed treatment is very important for the development of the crops,â&#x20AC;? said Foster, a man of few words.

He said there is no reason to rush to judgment on neonicotinoids; that very little science has been done on the issue in Canada.

He wonders if insecticides are killing the bees or something else or a combination of multiple factors.

Health Canada blamed last yearâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s dieoff to weather: one cold snap at the wrong time could devastate colonies.

Then thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s exotic mites and fungi shipped in unwittingly or otherwise from far flung parts of the world that attack native bees.

Or even if it is insecticide-related,

On the one hand, he knows they must grow more and more efficient to keep up with the competition, including the use of pesticides. On the other hand, he says the relentless pursuit of profit at all costs is having a devastating affect on the natural world. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Farming has changed completely in my lifetime. They donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t even cultivate anymore,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;They are perfecting the bottom line today, but maybe not tomorrow.â&#x20AC;?

However, the die-off on Polkâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s property this year had no direct link to neonicotinoids. It was the combination of a Varroa mite infestation and extreme weather. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t use enough treatment to solve the problem,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;In July we had a cool period. And they never made honey after that.â&#x20AC;?

Others would say neonicotinoids played an indirect role in the decimation. After many years of usage, industrial insecticides are omnipresent: in water, soil, plants and animals such as bees. It could make them more susceptible to parasites and fungi.

Polk accepts that the science isnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t out on a cause, but conventional wisdom tells him that the two donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t mix. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I think itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a contamination but I donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t have any proof DEREK DUNN/METROLAND of that. Thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a lot of research to do, a lot of unknowns Dust is kicked up from a field tilled in Dunrobin. Grain farmers and beekeepers agree right now,â&#x20AC;? Polk said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;All I know is that pesticides and neonicotinoids are killing insects in mass numbers. They disagree whether â&#x20AC;&#x153;planter dustâ&#x20AC;? bees donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t mix well together. DuPont and Monsanto (comis doing it or the crops - contaminated throughout - are poisoning them during pollina- panies) do lots of research, but nobody knows the long term.â&#x20AC;? tion. at which point in the farming process do neonicotinoids attack them?

Fosterâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s point is that no one at this stage can say for sure. And for him, the stakes are too high to act without certainty: a neonicotinoid ban would be a deal-breaker. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s no reason to throw the baby out with the bath water,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Without another product in place that does what it does, it would be huge disaster.â&#x20AC;?

Many large-scale farm operations are highly efficient but deeply susceptible to unravelling at the slightest change. Expensive equipment needs to be paid for through expected high yields. The slow eating away at profit that nature caused in the past is, today, replaced by a solid defence against losses â&#x20AC;&#x201C; thanks in large

part to insecticides. *** Beekeeper Arnold Polk lives in West Carleton between Pakenham and Arnprior. He has been an apiculturist since the mid 1970s when he took over his father-in-lawâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s farm. It supplements his income, along with driving a bus and one-time pursuits such as lambing. But beekeeping didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t supplement his income last winter. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It was a wake up call,â&#x20AC;? said Polk, who is happy to produce 30,000 pounds of honey a year. He managed just 2,000 this year. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve never experienced anything like this before.â&#x20AC;?

Polk is aware of the neonicotinoids debate.

He has mixed feelings over farming practices.

*** Beekeepers are anxious for a solution to stave of future losses. Farmers are unwilling to change the status quo for fear of losing profit. That may seem like a strict dichotomy.

But according to the Arnprior areaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s vice president of the Ontario Federation of Agriculture, Debra Pretty-Straathof, it is more complex.

Those who farm corn and soya use neonicotinoids.

They are predominately in south western Ontario. Farmers in the Ottawa Valley area include those who require pollination, either because they are growing vegetables or feeding animals on food that flowered. â&#x20AC;&#x153;You will have polar opposites in any group, but we are trying to work together,â&#x20AC;? Pretty-Straathof said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Neither side wants to wipe out the other. Everybody wants to help (bees) but nobody wants to have a knee-jerk solution.â&#x20AC;?

Public health budget promotes food safety, active kids Laura Mueller laura.mueller@metroland.com

News - More restaurant inspections and getting kids to walk or bike to school are priorities in the city’s 2014 public health budget.

Ottawa Public Health is proposing to spend $12.4 million in city dollars in addition to $42.6 million in funding from the province next year.

The health department says it will need about $1 million more than it did last year to continue offering the same services. That’s within the two per cent increase cap that city council set for each department at the beginning of its term.

In the budget tabled on Oct. 21, public health manager Esther Moghadam said the agency wants to reinvent some of the money it’s saving, including $600,000 in efficiencies from having nurses work remotely with laptops. Public health is also reducing its base budget by eliminating three positions from the books that have

been vacant for several years.

The health authority wants to put $391,000 of those savings back into expanded programming, including more food-safety inspections of high-risk restaurants, outdoor food vendors and special events and programs aimed at increasing physical activity levels for schoolchildren, including promoting walking and biking to school.

That would include eventually developing active-transportation plans for all 230 public elementary schools in Ottawa. The city is already working on demonstration plans with 12 schools, said Ottawa Public Health manager Sherry Nigro.

Health board chairwoman Coun. Diane Holmes said the city has “gotten away with murder” by not providing infrastructure that lets kids safely get to school by walking or biking.

Holmes said she thinks school boards bus students from door to door because the city doesn’t provide safe infrastructure for them to walk or bike.

lar active transportation audits. He told the committee his group has faced a slow and frustrating process to get the city to agree to infrastructure improvements.

“You run the risk of creating expectations that you are not able to meet,” he said.

Trevor Haché of Ecology Ottawa said the board’s support of a “complete street” policy in the proposed transportation master plan is a step in the right direction in that regard, but it doesn’t go far enough.

“It won’t achieve results unless it’s comprehensive,” he said, suggesting the board tell the city to adopt the 10 key elements developed by the National Complete Streets Coalition in the United States, which include specific implementation steps, performance measures and design criteria, among other factors.

Transportation committee chairman and health board member Coun. Keith Egli said he and city transportation staff have agreed to meet with Ecology Ottawa on that topic.

Health board member Marguarite Keeley said staff should pay special attention to how to increase physical activity for children who live and go to school in rural areas, since they have fewer safe ways to get to school on foot or by bike.

Public health is also proposing a one-time investment of $200,000 to continue a program to improve infection control standards in personal service businesses such as tattoo and body-piercing parlours and full-service salons that offer things like acupuncture.

Public health is working on a training program for operators of those types of business, as well as a public education campaign. But a couple members of the board of health, including Dr. Atul Kapur, said the city should look at requiring those businesses to be licensed.

“It surprises me that in the city of Ottawa you need a license to be an auctioneer, but you don’t need a license to be a body piercer,” he said.

City council will also be asked to pre-approve $200,000 for cost-shared programs for which provincial funding is expected to be made available next spring. That money could go towards programs such as: * Increasing immunization coverage for schoolchildren; * Expanding awareness of low-risk alcohol use guidelines; * Outreach to parents for youth mental health supports; * Aboriginal infant health services; * Promoting active transportation; * Promoting “healthy food environments” by encouraging menu labeling, improved signs and customer surveys.

There is one remaining public consultation at which residents can ask questions and share thoughts on the drafts budgets: Thursday, Nov.7 at council chambers in city hall, 110 Laurier Ave. W. from 7 to 9 p.m. Public delegates can present to the health board on the draft budget on Nov. 18.

City council is set to approve the budgets on Nov. 27.

Homes for the Holidays just around the corner!

by Robert Greenslade The eleventh annual Homes for the Holidays tour on November 15, 16 and 17, is only days away and anticipation is building for this very special event. The tour, now its eleventh year, supports end-of-life care programs offered by Hospice Care Ottawa, including those at the May Court Hospice.

“Homes for the Holidays will help us improve hospice services in Ottawa and reach our goal of increasing the number of area beds,” noted Lisa Sullivan, Executive Director of Hospice Care Ottawa. The tour is open daily from 10 a.m. - 4 p.m. and features six outstanding homes in the neighbourhoods of Rockcliffe Park, Rothwell Heights, the Glebe, Old Ottawa South and Island Park Drive.

Prominent area florists and designers will volunteer their decorating skills to the homes: three reflecting a specific seasonal theme (Christmas Eve, Christmas Day and New Year’s Day) and three highlighting the festive spirit of the holidays. For example,104 Black Maple Private features a “Very Special Christmas Eve”. This home is one of a collection of six elegant residences on the street. Mood Moss Florist and Jacobsons Gourmet Concepts combine their decorating talents to this home.

Another Rockcliffe Park home, the residence of the Swiss Ambassador to Canada (494 Lansdowne Road North), is a stately French Château-style home, decorated for the tour

by Tivoli Florist. This house was acquired by the Government of Switzerland in 1948 and enjoys frontage on picturesque McKay Lake.

Striking 13 Massey Lane in Rothwell Heights is decorated by Stoneblossom Floral Gallery. The home features mature trees and is notable for its cedar shingles, copper roof accents and front canopy.

A “Christmas Morning Wonder” (Tinseltown offers the Christmas decorative magic here) awaits visitors to 8 Thornton Avenue, just steps from bustling Bank Street. It’s interesting to note that the homeowner and her father worked closely to design the exterior and interior of this sun-drenched home.

A relatively new home, designed by Barry Hobin and decorated by Mill Street Florist, 900 Colonel By Drive’s stucco and stone exterior gives way to a light and airy interior and preserves ties to its past by retaining the property’s 150-year-old stone wall.

And visitors will not want to miss 512 Island Park Drive, decorated by Michael Courdin Design, for the “New Year’s Eve Celebration”! This contemporary home features many windows which give the house a strong connection to the outdoors.

Participants will also want to visit the completely revamped Holiday PopUp Shop, this year located at the Official Residence of the Irish Ambassador (291 Park Road). Visitors will be able to get a head start on their holiday shopping and browse the children’s corner, affordable artwork, jewellery, seasonal décor, and delicious preserves prepared by some of the region’s top food purveyors (and visitors can pause for a coffee or tea too). And the best news is you won’t have to go far for tickets! Tickets are available at 25 outlets across the city and via PayPal too.

Earn Extra Money! Sold-out roast to recognize ElKeep Your Weekends Free!

Chantiry’s 10 years as councillor Theresa Fritz theresa.fritz@metroland.com

ROUTES AVAILABLE!

News – From birth in Lebanon to becoming a major political player in Ottawa politics, Eli El-Chantiry has come a long way.

He has been a successful businessman, dedicated community volunteer, citizen of the year and a champion for West Carleton as the ward’s councillor for the past 10 years. Add to this his current roles as chair of the Ottawa Police Services board and deputy-mayor and you have one busy man.

To celebrate his decade in municipal politics, the Constance Bay and Buckham’s Bay Community Association (CBBCA) and Project Sandhills are hosting The Roast of Eli El-Chantiry Nov. 2. The event, presented by Thomas Cavanagh Construction, will take place at NeXT, located at 6400 Hazeldean Rd. in Stittsville.

Although the venue for the event in not in West Carleton, CBBCA past president Len Russell said it was selected for its excellent reputation and outstanding food. NeXT is the centre and restaurant of renowned chef Michael Blackie. He was formerly executive chef at the NAC and at the Brookstreet Hotel.

Project Sandhills is a community campaign underway to raise funds to expand the Constance Bay Community Centre and library. The total project is estimated at $1.9 million dollars.

Of this amount, the community contribution

will be between $500,000 and $750,000.

For the past eight months, dedicated volunteers have been hard at work pulling the event, which is now sold out, together.

El-Chantiry has been roasted before. Back in 2001, when he was named West Carleton’s Citizen of the Year, the barbs flew fast and furious. And now, some of the cast who took part in 2001 will be back for this new roast including former Ottawa mayor and current Ottawa WestNepean MPP Bob Chiarelli.

Other roasters will include Ottawa Mayor Jim Watson, Nepean-Carleton MPP Lisa MacLeod and former Ottawa Police Chief and current Senator Vern White.

MAJOR FUNDRAISER

“The roast is our largest of about 60 fundraisers for Project Sandhills. Because Sandhills is so large – estimated at $1.5 to $2 million – we need to attract funding from far beyond our community; the roast is one way we are doing that,” said Len Russell.

Between the roast and other events taking place steadily, the fundraiser effort is showing some positive results.

“The other fantastic milestone we will hit on the Nov. 2 weekend, because every dollar we raise is matched by the city, will be passing the $1M mark in committed funding,” Russell said.

Newly built Richcraft Recreation Complex to open Dec. 5 jessica.cunha@metroland.com

News - The newly built Richcraft Recreation Complex is slated to have its grand opening on Dec. 5.

The state-of-the-art facility, located at 4101 Innovation Dr., will have a soft opening for the month of December, so people have time to try about the facilities, classes and pool, said Chantal Laporte, recreation portfolio manager.

Programming will start in January. â&#x20AC;&#x153;You get to see whatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s offered,â&#x20AC;? she said, adding staff were planning on moving in the last week of October. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Right now I have to say that it is looking very good.â&#x20AC;?

A winter program guide has been released, but itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s â&#x20AC;&#x153;a living document,â&#x20AC;? said Laporte, adding programs and classes may be added or changed depending on public demand. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Fitness classes evolve constantly,â&#x20AC;? she said, adding â&#x20AC;&#x153;You will see that thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s programming for all age groups.â&#x20AC;?

Preschool-age programming includes: * Pre-ballet * Ball hockey * Baby singing time * Crafty Chefs Children and youth programming includes: * Badminton * Basketball basics * Mini triathlon training * Cheerleading Adult programming includes: * Bootcamp training * Pilates

* Yoga â&#x20AC;&#x153;The complex was built to be a good fitness centre,â&#x20AC;? said Laporte. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It also has, and I know a lot of people are excited about that, a large pool. We have more time for people to swim laps and exercise.â&#x20AC;?

Once a week, the centre will also offer a womenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s only swim.

Memberships to the class A facility are also transferable to any other city-run centre, and several different packages are available.

Kanata North Coun. Marianne Wilkinson said there is a youth room in the centre and sheâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s looking to get local teens involved in designing the programs. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re going to get some of the youth from the high schools to design the programs,â&#x20AC;? she said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It gives them a real ownership.â&#x20AC;?

She added that the complexâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s outdoor facilities, such as the skate park and childrenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s play area, will be open before the buildingâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s grand opening.

The $43.14-million recreation complex will serve residents of north Kanata and West Carleton with an eight-lane 25-metre swimming pool, two gymnasiums, a fitness centre, a community room, outdoor skateboard park, basketball fields and a lighted artificial turf soccer pitch.

The complex is being built to LEEDS gold certification standards for energy efficiency and environmental sustainability.

Laporte said feedback from the public is welcome and will help the recreation centre shape its classes and programs. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Do not hesitate to provide it,â&#x20AC;? she said.

Unique guitar concert opportunity for music lovers Sherry Haaima Sherry.haaima@metroland.com

Arts – If you were walking along a quiet Arnprior street on a Friday night in early October, you may have heard an unusual and lovely sound coming from one of the homes.

Classical guitarist Philip Candelaria has been making his home in Arnprior for the past few years. Founder of the Canadian Guitar Quartet (CGQ), an internationally-renowned ensemble, and a performer and music instructor for many years, Candelaria has only good things to say about the town that has become a welcoming home for he and wife Iris and daughter Valentina.

On that Friday night, Candelaria hosted a private concert in his home, inviting friends and community members to enjoy an evening of impressive guitar performances courtesy of the CGQ. While Candelaria actually bought his home at the end of 2008, it wasn’t until the past few years that he and his family really settled in.

“I’d been commuting to Ottawa from Sudbury for years to

Two retired members of the CGQ will rejoin Candelaria and Trepanier to team up with the Austrian/German Salzburger Gitarrenquartett to form the G8 for a Canadian tour that includes a performance Nov. 1 in Arnprior. Tickets are available at the Arnprior Book Shop and at the door. work with the quartet,” he said.

Then Iris and Valentina spent a year in Chile and he travelled to see them.

“We looked around for a couple of years and Arnprior was my favourite place,” said Candelaria.

Since getting established, the family has grown to love Arnprior.

“It’s been great getting to know the town and meeting new people,” said Candelaria.

Candelaria met his wife Iris in Chile, where his

daughter Valentina was born.

“They both love Arnprior as much as I do,” he said.

His decision to live here means music lovers are in for a treat, as Arnprior is one of only a few places to host a performance of the G8 (guitar8), a guitar octet that pairs the CGQ with the Austrian/German Salzburger Gitarrenquartett. The Nov. 1 show at Grace St. Andrew’s United Church promises to be a fine evening with two premiere pieces one of which is Canadian.

Candelaria obtained a Bachelor of Music in music history from the University of British Columbia; taking private guitar lessons with Bruce Clausen.

In 1979 Candelaria received a Professional Study Award from the British Columbia Arts Council and then a Canada Council grant to study under Aaron Shearer at the Peabody Conservatory, Johns Hopkins University, where he completed graduate training in 1980.

Candelaria grew up in Vancouver and spent much of his

guitar teaching career in Sudbury.

He taught at Capilano College in B.C. and since 1980 was a guitar instructor at Laurentian University and Cambrian College in Sudbury.

In 2003 he became an instructor at the University of Ottawa. He regularly conducts master classes and adjudicates for festivals in Canada and abroad.

The idea for the G8 all started a few years ago when Patrick Roux, one of the original CGQ members, encountered an Austrian/ German guitar quartet “He thought it was really good,” said Candeleria. “Somehow it came up we should do something together.”

The plan was to do a few pieces together and several in their original quartets.

“It turned out the musical chemistry was so good we ended up only doing a few pieces on our own.

It’s the third time the octet has travelled across Canada.

The first European tour was in 2006, with the G8 coming to Canada the following year in 2007 “Then we decided in 2009 to do another set of exchanges,” he said.

This third tour, with the European one completed in 2012, has been the most successful to date. The Canadian tour consists of 10 shows.

outreach work along the way, in schools and at other organizations.

Candelaria, tour director, has been busy preparing – booking rental vehicles, firming up travel plans and getting everything in order.

The venues range from smaller ones like Grace St. Andrew’s United Church to quite a bit larger, including a 1,000-seat hall in Barrie.

He founded the Canadian Guitar Quartet in 1999 and said after years as a teacher and soloist, he enjoys playing in a group.

“When you play in a group, you listen so much better,” he said. “It’s completely different, it opens up your ears.”

How do the European G8 concerts differ from the Canadian ones?

“You feel you’re in the old world,” he said. “We’re usually in old churches or concert halls.”

Candelaria’s love affair with the guitar began as a child. His father was an English professor at Simon Fraser University. His sabbatical project involved going to Spain to translate poetry.

“So he took the whole family to Spain for a year,” he said. To better grasp the language, Candelaria’s mother took guitar lessons.

She brought her impressionable 11-year-old son along. While the language and indeed the instrument did not come as easily to his mom, the youngster was hooked.

“I took to it so fast,” he said.

The instructor was impressed and before the family returned to Canada, he presented the young musician with a handmade guitar.

“I went back to Canada and I just stayed with it,” he said.

And oh so many are glad he did.

Tickets for the Nov. 1, 7:30 p.m. show at Grace St. Andrew’s United Church cost $25 general/ $15 for students and are available at the Arnprior Book Shop and at the door. Visit www. guitar8.com.

Time for neonicotinoids ban?

Halloween in Fitzroy The West Carleton School of Performing Arts hosted an impressive haunted walk at the Fitzroy Community Association’s Halloween Party Oct. 26.

Above, witches, from left, are Holly Nickerson, Maya McKnight, Melissa Demers, Calli Macdonald and Chantal Nickerson. ’ SHERRY HAAIMA/ METROLAND

Volunteers, including bunnies on hand to accompany younger trick-or-treaters through the walk, greet visitors to the community centre. From left are Grace Mackenzie, Julie Brace, Christine Noel and Amanda Krahn.

She said it is widely accepted among farmers that neonicotinoids are a cause.

What is less certain, at least from the beekeepers side, is at what point the insecticides affect pollinators.

PMRA is studying contaminated “planter dust.” The hypothesis states that a coating of insecticide on each seed comes off during the farming process. It creates a dust cloud that bees fly though, causing them to ingest the neonicotinoids and die. Anecdotal claims from southern Ontario on this theory reached Polk.

“He (a beekeeper) said when (bees) were coming back through the cornfield they were falling like rain, and were in some kind of paralysis state,” Polk said.

“They’ve lost hundreds of colonies of bees.”

Critics say inhalation of dust plays a less significant role than does consumption.

Neonicotinoids could be fused into the seed and, over many years, the soil, and taken up by the plant through the soil to kill insects feeding on them. Ponds and other water spots could be chemical soups after this many years of using insecticides too, adding to chances bees could be ingesting them.

Health Canada regulators have proposed better labelling on insecticides and require farmers to implement safer seed planting practices.

Those moves aren’t enough for beekeepers, who are fewer in number and therefore hold less clout over lawmakers. Another year of mass die-offs could harbour untold

calamity for many common foods such as: apples, onions, pears, beans, celery, broccoli, cauliflower, cabbage, common peppers, eggplant, tomatoes and much more.

However, at this stage it doesn’t seem those welding power are willing to move any time soon. CarletonMississippi Mills MPP Jack MacLaren is a farmer, and sold seed to farmers throughout the region. He lauds the effectiveness of

neonicotinoids while reserving judgement until further study is done.

“It is commonly used on corn seed to protect against insects and disease. It does work.

“It helps farmers,” MacLaren said. “Canada has very stringent rules about pesticides.”

Still, if further studies show them to be harmful to bees or other animals, MacLaren said he has no problem with an outright ban.

Barrhaven school moved to the top of public boardâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s wish list West Carleton Secondary School in third place on priority list Jennifer McIntosh jennifer.mcintosh@metroland.com

News - A last-minute amendment to the public school boardâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s capital priorities list on Oct. 22 moved a new elementary school in the Barrhaven suburb of Half Moon Bay to the top spot.

Ryan Knuth, director of public relations for the Half Moon Bay Community Association said residents are thrilled and surprised by the vote. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I spoke with trustee Donna Blackburn before the meeting and we were hoping that was going to be the outcome,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;But I had made cases in front of the board before, so I

knew it could go either way.â&#x20AC;?

Knuth said the suburb currently has more than 3,000 homes, and based on approved developments it will have almost double that by 2016.

Knuth said students are currently attending Barrhaven Public School, Jockvale Elementary and Cedarview Middle School. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I would say students are being transported six to eight kilometres each way for school,â&#x20AC;?

Knuth said.

Blackburnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s amendment asked the board to move those schools that havenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t had board approved accommodation reviews further down the wish list. The 11th-hour change moved a new school for Avalon, a suburb in OrlĂŠans, from the top spot to number seven. It also bumps a new school for Findlay Creek from fifth to eighth.

Blackburn said without a board-approved study of adjacent school space it wasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t responsible to put the east-end school ahead of other projects. â&#x20AC;&#x153;There are 100 spots at Henry Larsen (Public School) that could accommodate some of the overflow,â&#x20AC;? she said, adding all parts of the city should be studied before priorities are set.

Chapman Mills Public School was opened in September to handle excess students from Farley Mowat and Barrhaven public schools. The board did an accommodation review in 2011 and redistributed students to ease crowding. At the time Farley Mowat and Barrhaven public had 17 and 19 portables respectively.

It was Blackburnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s second kick at the can.

She proposed a similar motion at the Oct. 1 committee of the whole meeting that put forward a list of schools that had accommodation reviews or â&#x20AC;&#x153;similar studiesâ&#x20AC;? completed. It was defeated. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I think the spirit of the motion got lost in that discussion,â&#x20AC;? she said, adding she simply wanted to ensure the board followed a process when choosing priorities for the wish list set to go to the Ministry of Education on Oct. 31.

OrlĂŠans and Cumberland trustee John Shea

said the amendment left him speechless. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I thought we had closed this issue at committee of the whole,â&#x20AC;? he said, calling the lastminute move unfair. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not transparent,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We had a list that we had developed with the criteria staff had chosen. Then we completely changed that with no notice to the public. No one from OrlĂŠans or Findlay Creek was present.â&#x20AC;?

Shea scoffed at the suggestion that OrlĂŠans students could be moved around to accommodate the overflow at Avalon Public School. â&#x20AC;&#x153;There has been some decline in enrolment in other parts of OrlĂŠans, but people forget itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s quite large â&#x20AC;&#x201C; 110,000 people â&#x20AC;&#x201C; bigger than Barrhaven or Kanata,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I can get to Embrun during the rush hour in the morning faster than I can get to parts of OrlĂŠans that are north of the (highway) 174.â&#x20AC;?

Six trustees voted in favour of the amendment, five opposed and one abstained, Shea said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It was the thinnest of margins possible,â&#x20AC;? he said, adding he hopes the ministry takes the business case for a new Avalon school into consideration. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Hopefully theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll see it is the boardâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s first capital priority despite what happened last night,â&#x20AC;? he said.

Mark Fisher, trustee for much of south Ottawa, said only looking at accommodation reviews to compile the list doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t take into account other factors that can make projects a priority. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Staff have dozens of criteria they look at,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Pressures of full day kindergarten, class sizes and location are just a few. By limiting the list to accommodation reviews, we only have a very narrow view.â&#x20AC;?

While Fisher said he supports a new school in Half Moon Bay, he said he didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t like politicking to get it farther up the list.

Board makes last minute amendment to its priority list Continued from page 40

â&#x20AC;&#x153;As far as I am concerned all the projects are number one and they all have strong business cases,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;But itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s hard for me to tell residents to trust in the process when things like this happen.â&#x20AC;?

A new school in Findlay Creek is sorely needed, he said, adding the Department of National will not renew the lease beyond 2017.

While the new list allows for staff to draft a special letter in support of a Findlay Creek that will be circulated to Ottawa area MPPs, Fisher said itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s tough to explain to his constituents why the project dropped three spots on the list for no apparent reason. â&#x20AC;&#x153;A new school for Avalon and Findlay Creek

have been on the list since 2006,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s unfortunate this process pits one community against another, which is why I supported simply moving the projects that hadnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t received money from the last round of funding to a new list.â&#x20AC;?

Fisher added the site for a new school in Findlay Creek has already paid for and has servicing. The board voted in favour of purchasing land in Half Moon Bay the same night it was put to the top of the list.

But Blackburn said she remembered calls for following the accommodation review process when the board was faced with the decision to either renovate or rebuild Broadview Public School. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Barrhaven has done its fair share in terms of

accommodating growth pressures,â&#x20AC;? she said.

The amended list of priorities will be presented to the Ministry of the Education at the end of the month for funding.

The new list in order of priority: * New school for Half Moon Bay 13.65 million * Broadview Avenue Public School rebuild $17.8 million * West Carleton Secondary School addition $6.4 million

* New Stittsville Secondary School $36.1 million * AY Jackson Secondary School addition $6.4 million * Viscount Alexander Public School addition $2.43 million * New Avalon II Elementary School $13.65 million * New Findlay Creek Elementary School $13.65 million

Zombie Run draws them in for good cause News - Oh, the humanity!

The inaugural Zombie Run for Humanity drew some nasty looking undead to the former Nepean national equestrian park on Corkstown Road on Oct. 19.

The parkâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s fenced pathways and dark, creepy woods made it hard for runners and walkers to avoid lurking zombies who grabbed at the three flags worn by the participants. Losing all three flags meant runners and walkers became part of the undead at the finish line.

More than 300 people took part in the morningâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s events, a fundraiser for Habitat for Humanity-National Capital Region.

Runners scale a hay bale obstacle before coming face to face with zombies during the first ever Zombie Run for Humanity on Oct. 19 at the former Nepean national equestrian park. Runners and walkers did their best to avoid the zombies during the fundraiser for Habitat for Humanity-National Capital Region.

Bake table had several purposes in Depression era kitchen Lifestyle - Often, when I was sitting at the old pine table at night, with the coal oil lamp giving off faint shards of light, I examined the hands of those around me.

For reasons I was never able to explain, I was deeply interested in other people’s hands. Even though the same blood ran through our veins, there weren’t two of us with the same hand shapes.

I would look over at Father, slouched in the old rocking chair close to the Findlay Oval, and I could see his hands holding the Ottawa Farm Journal.

They were small hands, I thought, for a man, but I knew them to be powerful. They were calloused and wore the look of hard labour, and they could tie up a pig or roll a heifer with ease.

But when he ruffled my hair, as he often did when he passed me, his hands were gentle and loving.

My sister Audrey had long tapering fingers, and I always thought her hands were narrow, and I would look at them and try to compare them with my own, which, even with a young eye, I could see that mine were wider by far. How I would envy Audrey her pretty hands!

I knew too, that the reason she was able to do such beautiful hand work, and embroider French knots and lazy daisies on our tea towels and pillow cases, was because she had the perfect hands for the job.

Even the hands of my three brothers differed from each other. Earl, the smallest, had hands that suited his slight build.

Everett, the oldest of the three, had hands that were already beginning to show he would be expected to carry his weight on the farm. He complained of callouses and often said his fingers

Mary Cook’s Memories MARY COOK

hurt. There was little sympathy for Everett ... he was needed on the farm, and the sooner he got used to hard work and the callouses the better off he would be, Father told him.

Emerson, the biggest of the three, but the middle son, had big hands. They matched perfectly his big frame, and his almost six foot height by the time he was 12 years old.

But Mother always said Emerson had the hands of an artist. How she could tell, I had no idea. But she believed one day Emerson would be a great artist, or a builder of fine buildings with those hands.

And so she squirrelled change out of her egg money from the blue sugar bowl, and took advantage of Ritza’s Rexall Drug Store one-cent sale, and bought him art paper, and soft leaded pencils, so sure was she that Emerson’s hands would one day make him famous.

And I would look at Mother, sitting at the end of the table, with her diaries spread out around her, and with a bottle of real ink in front of her, and a pen ... she always wrote in her diaries with ink, never with pencil ... and if would look at her hands and then at mine ... and I would think that our hands, of all those in the family, were the most alike.

Her two little fingers, like mine, had a slight bend in them. And I would watch her, face down over her diaries, and I would hope that one day

I too could fill scribbler after scribbler with my thoughts and wishes, just like my mother.

We children were never allowed to read her diaries (“diaries are private”) she would say, and we knew better than go near them.

Sometimes, she would write so quickly, as her thoughts came, and for so long, that she would have to stop and rub her fingers to ease the stiffness. And that’s when I would notice how much our hands were alike, even though mine were smaller by far.

My interest in hands came naturally, I decided many years later, because they played such an important part in our lives.

Our brothers were taught at an early age to offer a hand to anyone older than they were and whom they happened to meet on the streets of Renfrew. Off would come the caps, and the hand would be thrust out in greeting. My sister Audrey and I were excused from handshaking, which was a great relief to me.

And at an early age, I noticed the difference between a greeting handshake, and one that was used to close a deal. In greeting, the hands were

pumped.

But if a deal was coming to a close, and a handshake was needed, the hands met in a clasp, and one handshake was all it took. One pump, and the deal was made. It didn’t take a lawyer to make a deal binding ... just a simple handshake.

It was impossible to live in that old log house in Northcote, and not be aware of hands. Clean hands! Mother was a sticker for clean hands.

The wash basin sat on the bench at the back door, the water changed often, a homemade bar of soap in a saucer beside it, and a huck towel on a roller on the wall. No one got within a country mile of the table at mealtime without a thorough wash of the hands.

We never set out for school without washing our hands. The last thing we did when we crawled into bed at night was wash our hands.

Emerson, who thought Mother took this clean hands business too far, often could be heard saying, under his breath of course, “I think we must have the cleanest hands in all of Renfrew County.” Well, that’s the way Mother wanted it ... and what Mother wanted, Mother got.

Choose the pet that’s right for you Lifestyle - Here are a few tips for choosing the perfect pet: • Don't make an impulse buy: Do your research and understand the type of care and commitment your potential pet will need.

• Consider things such as whether the dog breed you want needs lots of exercise, otherwise it'll create havoc in your home, or whether it's a cat that needs less attention.

• Consider your lifestyle and how a pet will fit in: Do you have a demanding career that means you won't have lots of time for dog walks and playing in the park? Or do you live in an apartment building or in close proximity to others and therefore need a quite pet? Do you have a huge yard for a dog to play in? Are there small children in the home that should be considered in your pet and breed choice?

Woves fall short in Halifax volleyball tourney Emily Edwards WCSS co-op student

Sports - The West Carleton Secondary School (WCSS) senior boys volleyball team finished sixth out of 16 teams in their division at the annual Dalhousie Scotiabank high school invitational tournament over the Thanksgiving weekend.

The team began strong, winning their first pool three games to none on Saturday. On Sunday the boys ended the tournament at Dalhousie University with an overtime loss in the quarter final by three.

From their arrival on Thursday, Oct. 10 until their departure that Sunday the team took

advantage of what Halifax has to offer when not on the court. The boys, along with West Carleton Wolves volleyball coaches Mark Bailey and James Battye, toured the Maritime Museum, a local farmers market, the Pier 21 museum and even fished on a chartered boat, departing from the Harbour

front.

LARGE EVENT The tournament is known as one of Canada’s largest school volleyball tournaments, but both coaches knew the players could handle it.

They’re a great group of guys and a good

team,” said Bailey. “The team showed us that they wanted to get some more experience playing, and we thought it would be good for them as well.”

Upon their return to Ottawa, the Wolves were commended by their coaches and fellow schoolmates for their efforts.
