It’s the smallest tax increase in six years and at 1.98 per cent, it falls below city council’s commitment to keep tax hikes at 2.5 per cent each year.

EMC entertainment – Washing her hands in the Toronto studios’ restroom, having just auditioned a second time for the Family Channel’s Wingin’ It back in 2007, Brittany Adams was a bit taken aback when the casting director walked in. “Hi. How’s it going? It must feel good to know you have a part either way.� “I had no idea what she was talking about but had to say something. ‘That’s great.

Of course it is,’ I told her, and kept washing my hands,�

Smart, driven, quick to react: it all comes together for her with some regularity.

The jobs are coming more easily these days. Adams, who grew up primarily in Kanata – graduating from Earl of March – visits her mom in West Carleton when she can escape Toronto.

She was in Hull recently to film portions of a femme fatale called A Sister’s Revenge, but took time at mother Carrie Owen’s rustic farmhouse on Donald B. Munro Drive to discuss her fledgling career in show business.

Adams plays a waitress, Marci, in the the HBO thriller.

It’s a little out of her comfort zone of comedies and tween shows. She loves to make peo-

ple laugh. But she’s striving to play a variety of characters, much like her mentor-from-adistance Kate Winslet. Adams admires the star’s “emotional range� and classy roles in solid films.

So she has her sights set on bigger targets than the Cancon industry. She wants to make it in Hollywood, though not for the usual fame and fortune part. Adams is in it for the craft. “I do want to do blockbuster movies,� she said. “It’s hard to say I don’t want to be famous; but I care more about the projects. And big movies can open more creative doors.�

The triple threat, who honed her singing, dancing, and acting chops at Kanata Theatre,

appears in Christmas Song, a Hallmark Channel original movie set to air this Saturday, Nov. 3. “I’ve lived a normal life up until now,� she said.

City of Ottawa budget likely to increase by 2.09 per cent next year Continued from front

And at 2.09 per cent, it falls below city council’s commitment to keep tax hikes at 2.5 per cent each year.

As the mayor indicated before the budget was released, it’s a plan that mostly sees city services maintained and the continuation of existing projects, but not a lot of new spending.

“There are many items contained in budget 2013 that will assist citizens in each and every ward and each and every neighbourhood right across this wonderful city,” Mayor Jim Watson said during his lengthy speech to council before tabling the budget.

While the city had been on the hunt for a new, larger location for the well-used Em-

erald Plaza library branch, the library will stay where it is and expand into a neighbouring part of the shopping centre, almost doubling in size to about 930 square metres.

The library wasn’t scheduled for an expansion until 2015, but when space opened up in the mall, KnoxdaleMerivale Coun. Keith Egli made the case to jump at the opportunity before it was too late.

“It’s very well used and it’s bursting at the seams. It’s absolutely where it needs to be, but it needs more space,” Egli said.

The project would be completed in 2013 and it would also include a new radio-frequency identification (RFID) sorting system. The city began

switching libraries to the more modern system last year to free up staff to offer programs rather than sort books.

Other projects include community design plans promised for areas around future light rail stations that would be funded to the tune of $300,000.

Two new city plans approved last year – the Older Adult Plan and the Arts, Heritage and Culture Plan – will get $500,000 and $1 million respectively towards their implementation.

The city plans to boost funding to fight the emerald ash borer by $975,000, bringing annual funding for pesticide treatments and replanting to $1.8 million.

After public consultations, city council is set to approve the budget on Nov. 28.

SOCIAL SERVICES

The city has to grapple with a “dark cloud on the horizon” when it comes to social services, the mayor said. That’s because the provincial government is clawing back $7.15 million for discretionary benefits and the Community Start Up fund.

That money goes towards a number of services for the most vulnerable residents of the city, including glasses and funerals for people on disability or financial assistance and emergency hydro and rent payments to prevent people from becoming homeless.

“I’m concerned and I’m also not happy about it,” Wat-

son said.

While the city did receive an additional $5 million from the provincial government this year thanks to ongoing “uploading” payment to reclaim the costs of social programs at the provincial level, that money basically had to be redirected to make up for the discretionary funding shortfall, Watson said.

SAVINGS

A lot of budget savings will continue to come from the Service Ottawa project, which aims to consolidate city services. In 2013, that will mean $8.8 million in savings from putting more services online, such as permit applications.

City treasurer Marian Simulik applauded the city’s ability to slash another 139 full-time positions from its

payroll, but later clarified that only 42 of the city’s 14,489 jobs were cut this year. The rest were eliminated previously, but were tracked in terms of dollars, meaning the jobs themselves remained on the books. Still, the last two years have marked the first time since 2002 that the city actually eliminated jobs to save money – $3.5 million this year. Many of those jobs were at the Nepean Equestrian Park, which the city decided to close in 2012.

Office expenses for the mayor and councillors will continue to be frozen.

DEBT

The city’s debt level is now sitting at $1.4 billion and the mayor said that figure won’t be increasing this year.

The debt represents around 10 per cent of the cost of the city’s $15 billion worth of capital assets. The city borrows money to build that kind of infrastructure in order to spread the cost over the asset’s lifetime to ensure the people who are using it also pay for it. Servicing the city’s debt accounts for about five per cent of the city portion of a individual’s tax bill, the city treasurer said. Ottawa’s debt is the second lowest per capita debt ($1,537) compared to other big cities, the mayor said.

EMC news – The Carp Road Corridor Business Improvement Area hit a hole in one for West Carleton’s X-ray clinic.

The BIA donated $2,000 from its ďŹ rst annual Carp Road BIA Golf Tournament, which took place at the Irish Hills Golf and Country Club Sept. 13, to the West Carleton Health Access Foundation’s Xray Vision Campaign.

BIA executive director Roddy Bolivar said they were thrilled to support the foundation in their quest to strengthen its $350,000 campaign to replace the current X-ray unit at the Carp Family Health Centre. “Many of our business area owners, employees and families live in west Ottawa and may beneďŹ t,â€? he said. “The event was offered at cost to members and it was through the generous sponsorships of BIA member businesses that we were able to make the contribution. All those who participated appreciated the format and the fundraising objective, so we will certainly be considering an event again next year.â€?

The BIA was grateful for sponsorship from BIA members, including Stittsville Storage, TDL, West Truck Repair, Karson Group, C&M Electric, Laurysen Kitchens, West Carleton Family Health Team, Waste Management, Helicopter Transport Services, Vittoria Trattoria,

and contract for radiologist services.

On May 30, the conversion from analog to digital X-ray capability was completed and digital images were transmitted to and from the radiologist service facility. The digital X-ray unit opened in June. The board is still seeking donations from the community to assist in meeting the ongoing monthly payments until the lease is paid off.

BIA to hold annual general meeting EMC events - Now is the time to get involved. The third Annual General Meeting of the Carp Road Corridor Business Improvement Area is coming up on Nov. 22, from 7:30 to 9 a.m. at Irish Hills Golf and Country Club.

Coffee and mufďŹ ns at 7:30 a.m. Meeting called to order at 8 a.m. The Carp Road Corridor Business Improvement Area formed in January 2011.

Over the past two years, the BIA has worked to improve business opportunity in the corridor: • Advocated for road and drainage improvements; • Fought the City to remove a proposed 2 per cent tax increase for drainage in rural areas; • Assisted members with development application processes;

• Conducted regular roadside debris cleanup; • Held 5 area meetings where business owners could bring forward issues.

At the annual general meeting the board of management will table a BIA budget of $100,000 and a levy cap of 1.25 per cent (same as in 2011 and 2012). The BIA budget is collected by the city from area property owners in proportion to the assessed value of property. The AGM agenda and budget details will be posted on the BIA website crcbia.ca on Nov. 8.

Now is the time to get involved with the BIA. Attend the AGM to meet other area owners, hear about area issues and provide your own ideas on how business opportunity can be improved in the corridor.

Youth mental health, addictions still concern for White sabine.gibbins@metroland.com

YOUTH NEED SERVICES

Since his time as top cop on the Ottawa Police Service, White has been one of the city’s main forces behind project s.t.e.p., an organization which finished its capital fundraising drive by the end of 2011. Since its 2008 launch, the project has raised $3 million to help build two residential treatment centres for youth – one for francophone youth supported by Maison Fraternite, and one for anglophone youth, run by the Dave Smith Youth Treatment Centre in West Carleton.

The organization is now focused on its support, treatments, education and prevention program in area high schools, and through different youth academic programs.

Although his job as senator contrasts sharply from his previous role, his mission remains the same: to find resources for youth affected by addictions and mental health.

White acknowledged his two political allies in the room – El-Chantiry and MacLaren – and told the audience how dedicated the two men were to their ridings.

Since White’s last visit to the ARFA AGM a few years ago, the challenges facing

R0011709286_1101

EMC news – Same message, different role.

Senator Vern White, Ottawa’s former police chief, told guests at the Arnprior Federation of Agriculture (ARFA) how a seven-month long waitlist for youth facing substance abuse demons is too long.

The AGM took place at the Fitzroy Harbour Community Centre last Friday night.

“We shouldn’t have to wait seven months,” said White, who assumed the role in January.

“It’s embarrassing.”

White was the guest speaker during the federation’s annual general meeting, which saw the election of new board members and a recap of last year’s highlights. CarletonMississippi Mills MPP Jack MacLaren and West CarletonMarch Coun. Eli El-Chantiry also addressed the crowd that evening.

A roast beef dinner was served thanks to caterer Tracey Jardine of Fitzroy Harbour.

The AGM also featured a comedy routine from West Carleton’s Jean McCerron.

ARFA is a local branch of the Ontario Federation of Agriculture, the country’s largest voluntary farm organization representing more than 37,000 farmers throughout the province.

The farmer-centred organization, based in Guelph, plays a key role as an advocate for

Ontario farmers, championing their needs and interests through government relation, lobby efforts, community representation and more, according to its website.

SABINE GIBBINS/METROLAND

Senator Vern White told those gathered how important it was for the city and province to find solutions to help youth affected by mental health illnesses and addictions. the city have not diminished; although the community is more educated than ever on the issue, he said.

And no matter the role he holds now, the senator said, he still recognizes these challenges.

“The truth is we still face some of the same challenges,” White commented. “I don’t care whether you live in Arnprior or rural Ottawa, you are facing the exact same challenges (as the rest of the city).”

“When I came here five years ago, I said our biggest challenge for the city was residential treatment programs for young people with addictions.

“Lots of people think they’re somebody else’s kids we are talking about, but…I can tell you there’s not one of you in here who doesn’t know somebody who’s impacted by addictions, and/or mental illness.”

Sixty per cent of drug users are young offenders, White said, with 40 per cent alone experiencing mental illness.

It’s clear how desperately more services such as residential treatment centres are required in Ottawa, he pointed out.

If anyone were to go two blocks east of the ByWard Market in downtown Ottawa, they would get a cruel reality check, he said.

There, he continued, thousands of youth indulge in

criminal activity just to get a few dollars to satisfy their crack cocaine addiction.

But despite this reality, White said the police force has demonstrated its passionate stance on the issue and continues to patrol it.

However, White said, he would rather see this issue resolved sooner rather than later.

“I will tell you, as the Province of Ontario, we shouldn’t have to wait seven months for our children to get the help they deserve.” he said. “We should not.

“We live in one of the richest countries in the world, in one of the richest provinces, up until a few years ago, and we still have not gotten our heads around how we’re going to help these kids.

“And many people will say they’re somebody else’s kids, but I will tell you, they’re not… The minute they’re addicted, it’s such a spiral.

“We have to be vigilant in order to be successful.”

The other challenges the country and province will see is the rising population of First Canadians and new Canadians, he told the audience.

“They’re growing four and six times faster than our mainstream population,” he said.

The province needs to figure out a way to invest in these people better, he added, especially when it comes to training and education.

POLITICAL MATTER

thanked the board members for their continued hard work, as well as for hosting an enjoyable evening.

He mentioned the city proposed a 2.09 per cent tax increase – the lowest tax increase in six years – for the 2013 budget.

MacLaren expressed his dissatisfaction over the status quo of government, which was prorogued on Oct. 15 after Premier Dalton McGuinty announced his resignation.

“The government is being irresponsible,” said MacLaren, who added the closure of two gas plants was done for the Liberals’ political gain.

“This is a crime against democracy,” he said.

He predicts a spring election.

ARFA’S NEW BOARD

After the guest speakers addressed the audience, ARFA elected new directors for another year to the board, who include: director Eva Yantha, director and secretary-treasurer Susan Crawford, OFA vice-president and zone 8 director Debra Pretty-Straathof , president Ernie Smith, director Jessica Schouten, OFA member services re[ Zone 8 Brian Hamilton, director Jim Norton, second vice-president Harvey Hill, vice-president Tom O’Rourke, director Ben Jardine, director Brian Foley, director Willie O’Rourke, director Bruce Hudson, and director John Eastman.

When it comes to the act of acting, Adams grows thoughtful. She graduated from the University of Toronto’s acting school. She has theory along with practice. She talks about being wary of using personal experiences to draw out emotions for a scene, certainly not intense experiences. To be aware of slipping into a character and losing one’s real life identity – much like is said of Heath Ledger when playing The Joker – is a danger she vows to keep away from. “That’s where you can into trouble, if you are taking too much from your own life,� she said. “That’s the easy way, too.

It was written after the producers found out she was a talented singer and dancer. It’s all about playing to strengths, she is fond of saying.

While she found it odd to play a 15 year old when she was 19, Adams praised her colleagues and the camaraderie they forged. “When I first got together with the other cast members – they were all a lot younger,� said the effervescent 23-year-old. “Dylan Everett was actually 14 and I was 20.

Would she encourage her own children to go into show businesses, knowing that rejection far outmatches acceptance? “I love it, and couldn’t do anything else, even on the days when it’s hard to pay rent,� she said. “I don’t know if I’d let my child do it. You really have to accept yourself. You have to have your own confidence and can’t compare yourself to others. I’ve come to learn that everyone’s a good actor. And that some parts aren’t meant for you.�

Adams’ parents didn’t push her as a child.

Yes, they sent her to a good arts school in Vancouver during summer months. Her mom would join her on the west coast at her aunt’s home. But her parents were into local theatre, too, so had an interest. It is Adams who, as a child, couldn’t help herself but to perform. In front of family and friends that came to visit, she was always putting on a show. She actually wrote a script as a little girl.

Mom is proud, but keeps it in perspective.

Even when her daughter won the Wingin’ It role and called Owen from the bus ride home: she congratulated her daughter, but was beaming inside. “I always stay very calm; tell her ‘You did your best,’� Owen said. “You have to measure these things in small steps. Inside, I was screaming with joy.�

City Budget 2013 On October 24, City Council tabled Budget 2013, which proposes a 2.09 per cent tax rate and which is the lowest in six years. The draft document proposes that City Council continue its freeze on City recreation fees, and Mayor and Councillors’ ofďŹ ce budgets, for the third year in a row. The City will reduce its workforce again this year, this time by 139 Full Time Equivalent positions. ServiceOttawa will see an additional $8.8 million in savings, providing citizens with more efďŹ cient ways to access permits, licenses and other services.

It also includes the second year of Ottawa on the Move, a program of strategic infrastructure investments in road, sidewalk, water, cycling and sewer projects to build a better city and create jobs, while helping prepare the city for Light Rail Transit. The program will also assist in the rehabilitation of aging structures in all areas of the city. Budget 2013 includes a number of initiatives that respond to pre-budget feedback expressed by residents, while making progress on priorities established

by Council. Highlights include: s MILLION OF CONTINUED FUNDING FOR #OUNCIL S POVERTY AND homelessness initiative s MILLION OF REALIGNED AND REALLOCATED FUNDING TO OFFSET CHANGES in provincial priorities which will preserve the majority of beneďŹ ts for the most vulnerable and low income residents

City to shift zoning labels in villages Derek Dunn derek.dunn@metroland.com

EMC news – Reducing paperwork for developers was among the themes at a recent city-sponsored meeting in West Carleton.

About 40 residents from the six villages attended the Oct. 29 meeting, held at the West Carleton Community Complex. Called the village zoning public information session, the meeting was meant to show where zoning changes will occur in Dunrobin, Constance Bay, Fitzroy Harbour, Galetta, Kinburn, and Carp. Often it is about making the zoning less restrictive, explained city planner Carol Ruddy. Converting from agricultural to residential, or commercial to mixed use, should make the city’s intentions for a given property more straightforward.

Input from residents was more than welcome. “This is the beginning of our consultations,� Ruddy said. “I want to hear from you if there is something you disagree with.�

Among the changes to occur is shifting abandoned

schools in both Fitzroy Harbour and Kinburn from rural institutional zoning to mixed use zoning, offering more flexibility to potential developers.

Rivington Street in Carp was given a brief mention regarding boundary changes.

A small parcel of land in Dunrobin will be shifted from residential to mixed.

In Constance Bay, the city will make it easier to raze a building and rebuild in a new location without approval for an exception from the lot area or lot width requirements for the zone.

Another issue explained has to do with home-based businesses.

They are allowed to have one employee and a footprint of 54 square metres. That will change to two employees and 75 square metres, to a maximum of 45 per cent of the dwelling’s area.

Parking spaces will be reduced in some village core areas.

MORE OPTIONS

Novatech’s senior planner, Murray Chown, was at the

meeting. He wants to see the city back his idea to sell fiveacre parcels of land to homeowners. Currently prospective buyers can move in a village, buy a smallish lot in a country estate, or purchase about a 25acre former farm.

Chown wants to see those lots cut into five-acre properties that allow for homes set

beyond sight of the road. He said that will offer greater variety to customers and maintain the country setting for drivers.

West Carleton-March Coun.

Eli El-Chantiry likes the idea.

It will come up at city hall in 2013 and, if approved, will become part of the new official plan by year end.

Laframboise case held over until Nov. 15 Derek Dunn derek.dunn@metroland.com

EMC news - The Fitzroy Harbour man facing a variety of sexual and weapons’ related charges will remain in jail until mid November.

Paul Laframboise, 73, has been at the Innis Road jail since his arrest on Oct. 19. At his appearance in court five days later, Laframboise learned that he will remain in custody until Nov. 15, when he is expected by video to learn of a trial date.

He is charged with sexual assault, invitation to sexual touching, sexual interference, sexual exploitation, uttering threats and, according to a police press release “a variety of weapons offences.� Police indicated at the time he could face additional charges.

No further charges were laid.

Laframboise appeared in mental health court on Oct. 24.

Police force to be reined in for the rest of council’s term Laura Mueller laura.mueller@metroland.com

EMC news - Ottawa’s population is growing, but the size of its police service won’t be for the next two years.

The police service has no plans to add new ofďŹ cer or civilian positions until 2015 as the Ottawa Police Service tries to hold the line on increasing costs and corresponding tax hikes.

As it stands this year, an average homeowner can expect to pay an additional $13 a year on their tax bill for police services. The police budget is going up by $9.5 million: $4 million from tax assessment growth from new homes and businesses, and $5.5 million paid by existing taxes. That

amount represents the 2.5 per cent increase set by city council.

The city’s population continues to rise, but the number of police ofďŹ cers isn’t increasing in step, said Chief Charles Bordeleau. That ratio will start to catch up with us in 2015 and 2016, when the service plans to add 23 new members (both sworn and civilian) in each year.

The police service is able to hire ofďŹ cers to make up for those retiring by ďŹ nding cost savings elsewhere. A major one announced last month was the new collision reporting centre, which will open in 2013 and bring $600,000 in new revenue that year. That will rise to $800,000 in 2014.

But most of the $2 million

in savings the police found this year would come from a reduction in a stepped-up training program that was needed after amalgamation, when around 50 ofďŹ cers were retiring each year.

The Just in Time program was started to ensure that new ofďŹ cers were ready to hit the ground as soon as ofďŹ cers retired, but that number has now dropped to 30 ofďŹ cers retiring each year.

As a result, the police service plans spend $1.1 million less on that training program in 2013.

As always, the top cop cost is staff compensation; it comprises 83 per cent of the police budget. The city will have to

613.623.5903

spend $9.5 million more on its civilian and sworn employees in 2013.

After public consultations, city council is set to vote on the budget on Nov. 28.

SOUTH POLICE STATION

A new police station near Carleton Lodge long-term care facility is on the horizon.

When it was ďŹ rst announced in 2010, the city expected to ďŹ nish building the station by the end of this year.

It was pushed back, but there is $30 million set aside to get that project underway in 2014.

The whole project is expected to cost $50.3 million.

Smart development is planned development

F

or the most part, the suburbs have gotten off relatively easy as the city pushes for intensification â&#x20AC;&#x201C; plans intended to prevent, or at least allay, urban sprawl.

So when a developer comes forward with a proposal for a large-scale commercial development â&#x20AC;&#x201C; a plan that allows for high density residential buildings â&#x20AC;&#x201C; it makes no sense to throw up roadblocks.

The Kanata Town Centre lands are a perfect fit for

high-density housing, says Kanata North Coun. Marianne Wilkinson.

We couldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t agree more.

Urbandale Corp. is asking the city to rezone 10 hectares of land north of Highway 417 and east of the Kanata Centrum and is looking to create roughly 111,000 square metres of commercial space as well as hundreds of housing units.

Last week, more than 80 members of the community packed a meeting room at

the Kanata Seniors Centre for the councillorâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s monthly ward council meeting â&#x20AC;&#x201C; many of them concerned about the Urbandale proposal.

We can certainly sympathize.

Over the past decade, communities across the city have been hit with a slew of spot rezoning requests from developers seeking permission to build highrises and midrises not in keeping with the various neighbourhoodsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; character.

For instance, a current plan

to build a midrise in Beaverbrook has many residents up in arms, saying the building doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t fit in with the community.

One of the leaders of those opposing the Beaverbrook midrise, Bill Teron, has repeatedly suggested the Kanata Town Centre lands as a perfect spot for a midrise or highrise.

Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s why the land was set aside for future retail, office and high-density development by planners with the former city of Kanata.

If not the Kanata Town Centre lands, where?

The area will eventually have two Transitway stations on its doorstep, and runs along an eight-lane highway.

If Kanata â&#x20AC;&#x201C; or any other suburb â&#x20AC;&#x201C; is to incorporate intensification and large-scale commercial development, this is the way to do it.

If the city rejects proposals such as this it inflates the argument that people are NIMBYs whenever they oppose developments that donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t fit the

character of their neighbourhoods.

Development has to go somewhere.

Better it go where pipes, schools, bus routes, garbage collection and other city services already exist, so we donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t have to pay for more.

This isnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t a rubber-stamp process â&#x20AC;&#x201C; the development applications must keep in line with the areaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s designated zoning. But going big next to a highway and transit is smart development.

COLUMN

A bridge too low CHARLES GORDON Funny Town

T

he other day there was a house moving down the Queensway, west to east, going slow, as houses do. That was a good thing because not much damage was done when the top part of the house couldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t get under an overpass.

Now, you might say: â&#x20AC;&#x153;What a foolish thing to drive a house down the Queensway without making sure about how tall it was and how high the overpasses were!â&#x20AC;?

And I might say: â&#x20AC;&#x153;Well, at least they were trying, and least they were making the effort to get from one place to another.â&#x20AC;?

Which brings us, inevitably, to how little the people who run this city are trying. There was a story last week about the central library.

Library planners are proposing that there be a modernization, as opposed to a renovation â&#x20AC;&#x201D; not a particularly big modernization, but one that will, in the inevitable words of someone, bring the library into the 21st century.

Plans for something more ambitious were rejected, and we know why. There is next to no chance that the city will pony up the money.

The same goes for the thrilling idea, widely discussed a few years ago, of building a brandnew library downtown.

Youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll remember that this was seen as an exciting opportunity not only to re-energize the downtown but also to bring the library maybe even into the 22nd century. Proponents looked longingly at such examples as the Vancouver Public Library, which is a fine library, a great meeting place and an adornment to its downtown. We could have that here.

Alas, no. A low bridge was glimpsed in the distance, the bridge of tight budgets and

grumpy voters. No way a new library was going to get under that one. And so, as with many projects that might benefit the city, the project never hit the road.

You may also remember that one of the sites considered for the new library was the Government Conference Centre, the old railway station or, as the government likes to call it, Building Number 054533. Since 1966, when it ceased being a railway station, the building has mainly just sat there, playing host to the occasional event. It had a brief brush with fame in the â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;70s and â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;80s as the site for federal provincial conferences, but since then, nothing.

To the federal governmentâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s credit, it has not torn the building down and replaced it with a condo. Also to the governmentâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s credit, has turned down proposals ranging from a sports hall of fame to an aquarium. But still, hereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a gorgeous historic building at the very heart of downtown Ottawa that simply demands to be put to some creative use and no one is doing it.

There are cities that would salivate at the opportunity to take advantage of such a building, such a site. Ottawa is not one of them.

This is why so little has happened here in recent years. Most development has been by default â&#x20AC;&#x201D; the city saying yes to one condo builder after another. We will get a casino the same way â&#x20AC;&#x201D; not because anybody particularly wants one but because not enough politicians have the heart to say no.

Many will say our inertia on things such as the library is due to an absence of money. In part, perhaps, but it is also due to an absence of political gumption. Politicians at all levels are convinced that they will be punished by voters for thinking big, if thinking big means spending money and spending money means not keeping taxes low.

Maybe itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s true, maybe itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not. The idea hasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t been tested for some time. Certainly people seem to be quite proud of the War Museum, Ottawa City Hall, the Shenkman Centre and other recent examples of thinking big.

Wouldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t it be worth a try again? The bridge may be higher than we think (measuring first).

Learn CPR, and thank a How kids can take initiative through UNICEF volunteer firefighter To the editor: It was going to be a small crew for Thanksgiving this year, not like the fall of ‘87 Donnie and Marylyn’s farm with 73 guests. Pops was not feeling well and had a bout of pneumonia for the past few weeks and would miss the moose hunt with Bryan. He said he would try and make it to dinner and I was glad when his truck slowly drove up the driveway.

Supper was finished and Pops was reflecting. “I think things are gonna change next year, gotta slow...” Pops stops mid sentence and bows his head, his glass drops and shatters into pieces. Everyone freezes. Someone yells “call 911.”

We move the chair and get Pops to the ground. People move the table and chairs away to provide room, others gather the dogs and get them out of the way, and grandkids are grabbed and held closely.

Paula jumps into action and starts CPR; Keith checks for a pulse; I am in mini shock until I realize this is for real. Paula and I take directions from the 911 gal on speaker phone and take turns performing CPR. Keith checks pulse and performs mouth to mouth. We stop for a second and no pulse; 911 Gal tells us to continue.

Terri shouts out eight minutes.

Frank goes to the road with a flashlight to escort emergency crew. We continue to perform CPR. Paula flawlessly after taking the CPR course just two weeks ago; me pushing too hard, not counting properly but doing what I remember, we hear ribs cracking during the CPR but continue, Keith performs mouth to mouth and checks for a pulse, nothing again. I yell out “Come on Pops”.

Terri yells out 10 minutes as we see many lights in the driveway, help is here in under 11 minutes! Volunteer firefighters are here with defibrillator and take over, many support people enter the room asking questions about Pops, how long, medical history etc., everything is surreal, they attach the defibrillator and the

machine provides instructions and he is hit with a charge, and we wait. People clear a path on the deck, and get Pops in the ambulance, emergency vehicles have filled the driveway with flashing lights, the team from Fitzroy Harbour and Arnprior/Renfrew, volunteers, Dave the cop. Pops is going to the heart institute, I poke my head in not knowing if this is the last time I will see Pops and yell “Hang in there Pops”! I see his eyes look up and I think he may have heard me.

Two hours later Keith and I drive in to see his progress; prepared for a long night. We get to Pops’ room to find him telling the story of the night he and his brother got into the fight at the Prescott Hotel! Are you kidding me? Two stents in and some good drugs and he had not missed a beat.

Too many heroes in this story to mention, but this relay of life went flawlessly.

During the process there was no one person orchestrating the events, there was no screaming of panic, just an execution of precision by a newly formed team. Everyone involved made a difference no matter how small the task, one hiccup, one mistake, one missed step.

Couple of lessons learned: It is never too late to learn CPR, we are fortunate to have community defibrillator in Vydon Acres that saved my pops’ life, the time to get the shock to his heart was key.

Thank a volunteer fighter, or a 911 operator, or an ambulance attendant, or a cop, or a family member, because they have a thankless job and typically don’t get the recognition they deserve during times like this.

I have had many Thanksgiving dinners with friends and family but this may be the first I truly know the feeling of giving thanks.

To the editor: My nine-year old daughter Sutherland came home from school, Huntley Centennial, with a UNICEF envelope and told me earnestly that she wanted to help raise money for kids and schools.

She already had it all figured out. She would spend Saturday baking (because baking is “her thing”) and Sunday she would go around the neighbourhood on her bike selling baked goods to raise money.

She indeed spent Saturday baking: mini lemon cupcakes, blueberry muffins (“coz everyone loves blueberry muffins”) large iced lemon cupcakes and very fiddly shortbread-based bear cookies (a recipe taken from a French library book – she doesn’t read for pleasure this one – just for instructions).

MacLaren wrong on seniorsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; credit Are we losing our touch in Re: â&#x20AC;&#x153;Liberalsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; reno tax credit shows indifferenceâ&#x20AC;?

Dear editor: MPP Jack MacLarenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s claim that seniors have to spend $10,000 to receive the Healthy Homes Renovation Tax Credit is false.

This new tax credit helps Ontario seniors live independently in their homes for longer.

It gives back 15 per cent of what a senior or their family pays to make their home more accessible and functional. Renovations such as installing grab bars, hand rails and wheelchair ramps are all eligible.

$10,000 is the maximum limit for eligible expenses per year, not a mandatory amount to get the credit. A senior can claim any amount and they get 15 per cent back. For example, they would get $15 back if they spent $100.

Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s very disappointing that Mr. MacLaren is making misleading statements about a tax credit that helps seniors at all income levels make their homes safer and more accessible.

This treaty is progressing in an undemocratic process that has involved neither the House of Commons nor the provinces.

protecting the environment?

Gord Miller Ontario Environmental Commissioner

EMC editorial - There are some positive developments to report in this part two of our annual report to the Legislature.

We have some improvements in fisheries management and MNR has even discovered in Algonquin Park a surviving population of a species of fish thought extinct.

Fire management in parks has a better plan.

With some caveats I acknowledge that there are somewhat better wind turbine rules to protect birds and bats and the MTOâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s new transit-supportive planning guidelines are an improvement.

However, after those points are listed, my ability to praise government accomplishments in the environmental field gets a bit limited.

In this reporting period we saw no bold new legislation to tackle the challenges of our time.

The business of government went on a more modest scale, but it could hardly be said to go well.

This report is full of examples of stumbles and retreats in the implementation of programs and initiatives that were seemingly well conceived and used to work acceptably.

In part one of this report, previously tabled, I documented the failures of various ministries to meet their statutory process obligations under the Environmental Bill of Rights, 1993.

And, here in part two, I report to the Legislature on the strange changes to the Ontario Wildlife Damage Compensation Program,

which seems to anticipate the farming of our wild birds and animals.

I am at a loss to explain the reasoning behind the â&#x20AC;&#x153;bait and switchâ&#x20AC;? approach used when the Ministry of Natural Resources (MNR) posted a proposal to give farmers relief from restrictions on haying related to Eastern Meadowlark, and then issued a decision that gave residential developers a broad exemption from restrictions in the Endangered Species Act, 2007 relating to both the meadowlark and the bobolink.

Neither do I understand how MNR can completely fail to implement something as critical as the Provincial Wildlife Monitoring Program.

Or, similarly, I question how the Ministry of the Environment can confirm to people they are being adversely affected by industrial dust emissions and then allow the problem to persist for years.

Yet again, the government has tinkered with the Low Water Response Plan, but we remain without the timely ability to respond to increasingly frequent droughts, which threaten our aquatic ecosystems, water supplies and food crops.

The business of protecting our environment and natural resources used to be a much more routine process that largely ran smoothly.

I donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t know why even seemingly simple policy and program delivery has so many associated problems.

I have identified the lack of resource capacity in key ministries in the past as at least part of the problem, but the current foibles, fumbles and retreats point to problems beyond capacity constraints.

Perhaps we are just losing our touch.

Arnprior area falling behind in doctor recruitment To the Editor: An open letter to the folks in Arnprior, McNab-Braeside, Mississippi Mills and West Carleton.

As the current Chair of the Physicians Recruitment Committee for Arnprior Regional Health, I have come to the realization that as a committee and as a community we must change our approach to recruitment.

Having recently participated in a physicians recruiting job fair in Ottawa, I was surprised to learn how far behind we are in our efforts and our approach.

Our approach has simply been to host potential graduating students and doctors, promoting the Valley and selling the beneďŹ ts of establishing a practice in a rural vs. urban setting, placing ads in the medical journals at University of Ottawa and Queens, and attending one or two job fairs per year.

Our budget is $2,500 per year. We have $4,000 left in the kitty.

I thought we were doing all the right things and that sooner or later someone would sign up. Not happening! And here is probably why.

At job fairs, other towns and cities have paid

recruiting ofďŹ cers who work full time or part time and who are in a position to offer ďŹ nancial incentives to prospective practitioners. These vary, of course, depending on individual cases, but they include packages like interest-free loans to help set up the practice ($30,000+/-), lump sum payments over three to four years to help pay off their student loans (average debt a student accumulates by graduation is between $200 and $300 thousand) in return for a commitment to practice for at least ďŹ ve years and/ or funds to make a down payment on a house.

So what Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m saying is that just promoting your town and the lifestyle and the nearness to Ottawa is not enough! We do not offer any ďŹ nancial assistance and, therefore, missing out while communities like Almonte, Pembroke, Deep River and Renfrew are successfully ďŹ lling their needs.

In our district, there are approximately 6,000 people without a family physician. When these people are feeling ill or are injured they go to Emergency which leads to longer wait times at the hospital.

We also have a number of physicians that may be retiring in three to six years, so if we

donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t plan for the future, the shortage of physicians will be a huge issue for all of us in the community.

Our current family physicians along with the recently introduced family health team are doing a great job, but it is not enough to satisfy our growing and aging population. We need three more family physicians in our system, asap.

Imagine a family that wants to move to Braeside or Pakenham , Fitzroy or Arnprior and they ďŹ nd they canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t get a family doctor.

Picture the developer or the realtor who has to tell a potential buyer, â&#x20AC;&#x153;we donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t have enough doctors, sorry, but itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a great lifestyle.â&#x20AC;?

Now to my main point.

Attracting family physicians is also an economic issue. If we want measured growth and development, we must keep up with the times.

The services offered in a community can be the determining factor and as we age, as we raise young ones, being near a hospital is a huge plus and advantage and a strong selling point for growth and development.

Our community must come to grips with the fact that it is not the hospital staff or the doc-

tors or the hospital board that is responsible for recruiting physicians. It is up to us, the people, the politicians, the businesses, the entire community to come together and assist the recruiting committee to address this soon to be a real pressing situation.

By coming together, developers, realtors, retailers, professionals and the general public all beneďŹ t.

Therefore, as we move forward, we would like to set up a short-term fundraising sub-committee to establish the strategy and the funds required to attract and to compete on a level playing ďŹ eld for family physicians.

Doctors will only be attracted to our community with your help. To get involved, please contact either myself or Eric Hanna via email.

Dunrobin programs in jeopardy until more volunteers step up Dear editor: The Dunrobin Community Centre is going through a transformation.

Those that have donated their time and energy for years now are embracing other life adventures and as such are moving on.

Their generosity and kindness will not soon be forgotten.

As most know, the Dunrobin Community Association offers many different programs that support a strong community, a sense of belonging and

even just a place to go and hang out.

As our team of volunteers has slowly gotten smaller we have reached a cross roads. The Dunrobin Community Association is looking at reducing various services and sporting programs.

By March, with more of the group moving on, we might have to stop running some programs all together.

This would be quite unfortunate as the alternatives are either traveling to Kanata, Constance Bay or the like

for children and adult activities in the Dunrobin area.

I was once asked what does volunteering mean to me. I certainly had to think about it. When you get into the swing of things the simplistic answer is setting up hockey, or organizing Canada Day. As I start to dig I realize it is deeper than that.

I knew a sense of community was very important to me.

It deďŹ nes who we are and what we believe in. After all, if I was not

willing to help, how could I expect others to do so?

I believe in not leaving people behind, especially the most vulnerable.

When I ďŹ rst started volunteering, I had no idea how I could help? All of these volunteers with extensive experience, knowing all the ropes, moving with conďŹ dence; what could I really do was my ďŹ rst thought.

I realized that everyone has strengths, a passion, something that they enjoy to the point it is not work,

its play.

So here we are, I ask of my community what was asked of me. Please come out, give a hand, come closer to our community, and join our team.

Most of all please keep this in mind: If we keep the community close, it can never be taken away.

Please contact me directly if you want to help. You can reach me at 613-979-8393.

Whence come our feathered visitors?

ing visited by White-winged Crossbills, boreal forest birds that use their odd crossed bills to pry open scales of spruce and fir cones to access the tiny seeds with their long tongues.

But right now the most common â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;northernâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; finches being seen are Pine Siskins.

The name is misleading for siskins do not eat the seeds of pines. Instead, their short and slender bills extract seeds from hemlock, larch, alder, and birch cones, and they

vary in appearance.

Those from the southwest are much paler than the birds that nest in the northeast, and bear fewer and more diffuse streaks on the breast. They also have much more yellow in the wings and that. For that reason, they are often called â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;yellow siskinsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;.

Recently I was in Presquâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ile Provincial Park where there were thousands of Pine Siskins.

Pine Siskins are common this fall.

In some winters, smallbilled crossbills visit us, devouring seeds of hemlocks, not the seeds of pines that their large-billed resident cousins prefer.

Siskins are not the only finches to visit us from afar.

Red Crossbills have a similar range and they too vary in appearance. The main difference lies in their bill size, with western birds having much smaller bills.

Siskins have an insatiable appetite for nyger (niger) seeds and readers providing that expensive seed usually refill their feeders daily when siskin flocks visit.

Siskins are mostly brown, goldfinch-sized finches. Their breast is heavily streaked with brown, but their wings are adorned with yellow wingbars and yellow streaks extend along the long flight feathers.

There is also yellow near the base of their tail feathers; this feature shows best in flight.

Her career included missions in Afghanistan and other foreign countries but there was much work to be done even here at home in times of floods, ice storms and other situations.

Afghanistan itself left an impression on McCrimmon. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I really have a high opinion of the Afghan people,â&#x20AC;? she said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;They want something better.â&#x20AC;?

While there, McCrimmon

was responsible for all regional airports on the eastern side of the country, a role that involved negotiating with Afghans.

She counts among her accomplishments much more than just her military career. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve learned as much from being a wife and a mother as I have in my military career,â&#x20AC;? she said.

In both leadership roles, several principles have remained at the fore. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Lead by example,â&#x20AC;? she said. Do as I say not as I do just does not wash. â&#x20AC;&#x153;In the military itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s known as the saydo gap.â&#x20AC;?

Carleton District Womenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Institute hosted the Eastern Ontario Womenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Institute 98th annual convention Oct. 16. About 150 delegates gathered at the Carp Agricultural Hall for the event, representing regions across Eastern Ontario.

Guests included Federated Womenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Institutes of Ontario president Elsie Stephenson, Eastern Ontario Area president Julie Thur and Carleton District President Ruth Kennedy.

Listening skills are paramount to success when it comes to just about anything, said McCrimmon. â&#x20AC;&#x153;People are happy when they are connected to something bigger than themselves as an individual,â&#x20AC;? she said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Women have to understand their power and they have to take that power and

Street Survival school prepares drivers for road dangers Sabine Gibbins sabine.gibbins@metroland.com

EMC news – Like a rocket, the plastic water bottle shot off into the sky and landed with a thud.

The bottle, set on a deflated air bag, was meant as a harsh reality of the powerful force an air bag could have on the skull of a human being if impacted in an accident.

The BMW Car Club of Ottawa (BMWCCO), which rents out the track and parking lot at the Calabogie Motorsports Park, hosted a Street Survival course at the facility last Saturday, Oct. 27.

The event was geared towards new drivers, but all ages were welcome to attend.

A few parents looked on as a son or daughter were taught defensive driving skills.

About 20 students had the opportunity to engage in one-on-one accident avoidance driving scenarios with instructors.

President Chris Pawlowicz said the club was thrilled with the success of the event, which also provided a chance for the participants to go on three loops around the track.

Instructors were in the vehicles at all times.

Students were asked to bring their vehicles to the Motorsports Park Saturday morning - they did not have be BMWs - and used them for all exercises.

Pawlowicz said the idea for the event came from success the club has had when it comes to hosting other driving school events, mainly for advanced drivers.

“We got a lot of overwhelming feedback from the people who attended,” he said.

“People were surprised it wasn’t offered at driving schools. Once you go through the courses, you start to look at it a little differently.”

Pawlowicz and other instructors saw the difference in comfort levels participants experienced throughout the program.

GAINING CONFIDENCE

At first, he said, they were a bit fearful behind the wheel when the instructor told them to step on the brakes. Some of the students didn’t realize how hard they could step on the brakes.

“At the beginning of the day, when they were put behind the wheel in front of the exercises, they were timid,” he said. Another reason for hosting the event was after some of the instructors mentioned they’d like to see an accident avoidance course offered for their own kids.

A BMW club in the States was already offering the program also, and asked the Ottawa club if it was interested in hosting an event.

Now, due to the popularity of the Street Survival school, the BMW club is set to continue it as an annual event.

“One of the nice things is that we have been planning this for a year, and as a result, we’ve built up money in the bank over the last year,” he said.

Without the support of local businesses, such as Autovation in Stittsville, who ensured all cars were technically safe prior to the exercises, Tim Hortons in Arnprior, who fueled everyone with freshly brewed coffee and doughnuts, and Moe’s Pizza and Sand-

ahead,” he said. “Don’t look at the hood of your car when you’re driving, always look as far as you can so you can see what’s ahead.”

On the day of the event, Willroider pointed out some of the exercises taking place on the lot, which included

lane changing, a slalom, accident avoidance, and a skidpad, among others.

Classroom sessions also broke up the day with half hour lessons devoted to educating the drivers on honing their skills and preparing them for real situations. Class instructor Hagen Hohn provided students with a few driving tips and in-class instruction.

The courses offered on the parking lot were designed to provide students with individual techniques. The slalom, for instance, taught students looking ahead was always a safe decision. Another was designed to show drivers what ABS does and how it can be used.

“It’s going (ABS) to help you avoid whatever is in front of you,” said Hohn to the students.

Confidence, he said, is key to driving in one’s vehicle.

“It’s also important for you to realize what it feels like to lose traction, and what your car can do,” he said.

Distracted driving is a huge and often costly mistake for drivers.

“If you’re driving 100 km/h down a highway, every second you’re travelling the length of a football field, and every half a second you do something,” he continued.

“It takes half a second to get on the brakes.”

Additionally, he told students, they should abide by the three-second distance rule when following behind a moving vehicle.

Another tip he gave students is to allow the car to run a couple minutes so the fuel in the car can travel and warm up before the car is in motion.

After lunch, the participants and instructors hit the track for three laps, which was an added bonus to the day.

For a reason, a season or a lifetime, things happen I’m a firm believer that everything happens for a reason, although sometimes that reason is very hard to find.

I also think people come in and out of your life for a reason.

Sometimes they are there to help you through a hard time, or to help you see things from a different perspective.

And sometimes they leave your life rather abruptly, and you never see them again.

Maybe that’s because your lives take different paths, or because you just don’t have anything in common anymore.

I like it when those people come back into your life again, even for a fleeting moment, so you can see how things have changed between you, and possibly have what they call ‘closure’.

Like closing the book on that chapter of your life.

When I was a young mom of twenty-one, I met some women who taught me a lot about motherhood and married life.

But they had to drag me out of the house to do it.

I didn’t suffer from postpartum depression, but I spent those first few days at home with my new baby feeling quite bewildered and overwhelmed.

I think I was in shock.

I had a brand new life looking at me calmly with old-soul eyes, rarely crying, always trusting that I would know how to care for her.

One day there was a knock at the door.

I answered it to see a pretty young mom standing there, holding the hand of one child, another on her hip.

“Well? Does that kid have two heads or are you going to

bring her out so we can see her?”

Ann was (and probably still is) a loud, colourful, beautiful personality that drew people to her.

She pulled me into her circle and introduced me to my first friends as a new mom.

One of those women was Mia. I think she had five children when I moved out of that townhome development and lost track of her.

Now she has seven kids and three grandchildren.

Facebook, as much as I curse it somedays, brought us back together.

Yesterday I got to sit and chat with Mia for three hours.

We spilled secrets, confided hopes and fears and dreams, shared proud parenting moments and pored over photo albums.

We had really good Italian coffee, then Pinot Grigio, arugula salad with pecans, then more Italian coffee.

Finally it was time to say goodbye.

I hope it won’t be another twenty years before we see each other again.

I often wonder about Ann. She was an important person in my life when I needed cool young mom role-models.

We don’t live far apart; she ended up just about half an hour from where I live now.

Our paths have crossed briefly over the past twenty years; once by accident, once by planned visit, once over the phone.

I would like to see her again.

The past twenty years have encompassed three different lives for me: young stay-athome mom, expat foreigner overseas, and now farmwife.

Hear ye! Hear Ye! Kelly’S Christmas Open House...

Sometimes I can’t keep track. I have lost chunks of memory and confused details of one life with another.

Intangible memories can be summoned up alongside tan-

gible things: smells, sounds, sights.

The season of fall reminds me of these things from my three different lives: wrapping a baby head to toe and stuffing

her in a Snugli strapped to my chest so we can venture out, warm bottle and cup of coffee in hand, to stand at the park and visit with the other moms and children; running from the subway station to the bus stop in a blustery autumn storm in Taipei, the stench of fermented tofu and the perfume of wild orchids following me from the street market; the scent of the outdoors on my husband’s cold cheek when he kisses me after coming in from a sunrise hunt in his deer stand.

As I walk the dog and

breathe in the smell of the fall leaves, even earlier memories move to the forefront – memories that most of us have, of raking and then jumping into leaf piles, biting into a crisp McIntosh apple, the smell of a pumpkin when you reach in and pull out a handful of wet seeds.

While things turn brown all around us, take a moment to stop, smell and listen to the Earth as it prepares for winter.

It’s an amazing thing, and they don’t have an app for it.

History-making Wolverine mosquitoes head to city championships EMC sports - The West Carleton Wolverine Mosquito team headed to Leitrim on Oct. 27 to take on the South Gloucester Raiders in National Capital Amateur Football Association semifinal action.

The Wolverines were looking to avenge an earlier regular season loss at the hands of the Raiders, a 46-41 shootout just two weeks ago. A victory would propel the Wolverines into the A Cup Finals, slated for Sunday Nov. 4, for the first time in club history.

It was an overcast and cool morning, perfect for fall football. Both teams were eager to get the match under way. The Raiders would use their blitzing defence to cause a turnover on the Wolverines first possession.

On offence for the first time the Raiders would take three plays to move 45 yards and take an early lead 8-0.

On the ensuing kick-off the South Gloucester defence would recover a short kick and hand the ball right back to their explosive offence.

Using a strong running attack the Raiders would drive down the field and score another TD. A two-point kicked convert would be successful and the Raiders had stunned the Wolverines early for a 15-0 lead.

The 2012 version of the Mosquito Wolverines is, if anything, resilient.

With the second quarter underway the Wolverine offence would get back on track. Lead by solid blocks from offensive Linemen Harrison Cooney and Jackson Hyland the comeback started.

Running Back Hayden Tripp

would open the scoring for West as he would rumble 50 yards to close the gap to 15-6.

The defence fed on this momentum and had a huge stop with solid tackles from Nick Porteous and Jamie Smith. Back on offence, QB James Scott would connect with receiver Malcolm Duncan for a 15 yard pass completion to help keep the drive alive.

Once again Tripp would get some solid blocks and break a couple tackles and score from 35 yards out.

Westin Sonnenburg added the twopoint kicked convert and the score was now 15-14 Raiders.

Just before the halftime break South would restore some of their early momentum as they were able to March down the field and throw a nice play action pass for 25 yards and take a 23 -14 lead into the half.

In second half the Wolverines defence came out with something to prove. They used the sure tackling of Linebacker Jamie Smith and safety Hugh Russell to set a dominating tone.

The Raiders were continually frustrated and unable to mount any successful drives. With that the offence would have multiple chances to add to their 14 points. That they would do as the Wolverines would score from 40 yards on a Tripp run and bring the score to 23-22 after the Sonnenburg kick. Tripp would add another long TD run of 40 yards towards the end of the third quarter and the Wolverines would lead for the first time 28-23 At the beginning of the fourth quarter the fans could not have asked

SUBMITTED

Tight-end Malcolm Duncan, #37, hauls in a pass from Wolverine quarterback James Scott. The 15 yard reception gained a first down and the Wolverines would go on to score. The game proved a stunning upset in their favour. for a better football game and they showed their support by cheering on both sides.

The Wolverines would begin a 10-play drive that would help in setting the tone for the rest of the game.

They ran all 10 plays up the center of the Raider defence using the power blocking from their offensive line including Chad Brydges as well as fullback Justin Yee.

On third down and one yard to the end zone the Wolverines handed the ball to Tripp who plowed in for the TD. Sonnenburg would add the kick and West was up 36-23.

The Raiders would make this game close as they closed the gap to 36-29 late in the game. Tripp would fittingly seal the victory when he would rumble 60 yards the final TD of the game.

Final score West Carleton 42 South Gloucester 29.

With the win the Wolverines advance to the A Cup (Tier 1) final for the first time in club history.

Come and support your local Wolverines as they take on the Nepean Redskins this coming weekend.

Game will be played at Millennium Field in Cumberland Sunday Nov. 4, 11 a.m.

Legion to build Virtual Wall of Honour EMC news â&#x20AC;&#x201C; The Royal Canadian Legion will build a â&#x20AC;&#x153;Virtual Wall of Honour and Remembranceâ&#x20AC;? to honour all deceased veterans.

The appearance of the â&#x20AC;&#x153;Virtual Wallâ&#x20AC;? will coincide with the National Remembrance Day Ceremony, organized by the legion on behalf of and for all Canadians.

It will be displayed on the large video screens prior to the start of the actual ceremony on Nov. 11, and those thereafter.

As a way to honour their relatives and friends who have served Canada, Canadians are invited to forward a photograph of the deceased veteran to Dominion Command along with his or her name,

years of service, element or force to which the departed belonged or regiment/unit.

Photos can be sent by mail to Dominion Command, 86 Aird Place, Ottawa, ON, K2L 0A1 (no originals please as they cannot be returned) or electronically to RememberingThem@legion.ca or ALeurMemoire@legion.ca.

Any deceased veteran (including those who belonged to the Merchant Navy and of Ferry Command) whose death was attributable to any cause before or after they served (the Second World War, Korea, peace support missions, Afghanistan, accidental death in Canada) will be honoured.

Ronny tries to plant potatoes EMC lifestyle - Mother had a thing about clean ears and necks.

We never once went out the door in the morning on the way to the Northcote School that we weren’t subjected to a close look at both.

Heaven forbid that we might get run over with a horse and buggy, end up at old Doctor Murphy’s or the Renfrew Hospital, and have someone see that we had dirty ears and necks!

Every night before we went to bed, each of us had to give ourselves a sponge bath.

And we had to pay special attention to our ears and necks, knowing full well they would be scrutinized the next morning.

We pretty well ignored the

rest of our bodies, since it wasn’t likely Mother would be examining us after we were fully dressed.

My sister Audrey said she was quite sure we had the cleanest ears and necks in the entire of Renfrew County.

One year the Lapointe cousins were again with us well into the Fall, and Father said he doubted very much if Uncle Herby had any intention of taking them back to Montreal before the Spring thaw!

Ronny was a force to be reckoned with, while his younger brother Terry was as meek as a mouse.

And any time Uncle Herby and Aunt Helen could send the boys out to the farm at Northcote, they did.

Mary Cook’s Memories

BY MARY COOK

It didn’t matter if it was the middle of the winter, or during the dead heat of the summer, we never knew when to expect the two cousins.

I was always thrilled when they came to stay.

They added much to our quiet life out there on the farm, and I loved when the cousins were with us, even though Ronny was constantly in trouble, if not at home, at the Northcote School.

Back then it didn’t seem to matter where you came from, or why you were in the school.

If you were of school age, you just went.

Terry was too young, even for Primer book, so he stayed home with Mother.

But Ronny, close to my age, made the three-and-halfmile trek with the rest of us.

All that was needed was an extra bag of lunch.

Well, Ronny hated having his ears examined every morning.

He didn’t complain about the neck, but for some reason he went through a routine that never varied when Mother was ready for her examination.

He would bend his head onto his shoulder as far as it would go, screw up his face, and let out a howl much like our old Collie dog did when he thought something was attacking our hen house.

Mother gave him no sympathy.

He also didn’t have much

use for the nightly sponge bath.

And I know for a fact, he often just wet the face cloth and put it right back in the basin of water, stood for as long as he thought a reasonable time, and announced he was finished.

And, of course, the ears were rarely touched. Well, one morning Mother took a hold of one of his ears, and said, “Ronny Lapointe, you could plant potatoes in there.

Get over to the bench and I’ll give those ears a clean-out.”

Well, for some reason that morning, Ronny took his punishment like a man. But I could tell the wheels were turning in his head.

There was no howling, and he didn’t even bend his head to his shoulder when the other ear was being washed. Something was up with Ronny, I could tell.

He was deep in thought.

The next morning, we all lined up for the usual examination.

Mother thought, since Audrey was in Senior Fourth, she didn’t have to have her ears and neck examined.

She was old enough and quite capable of looking after her own cleanliness.

I couldn’t wait until I reached that magic age.

Well, it was Ronny’s turn.

He stood ramrod straight.

Again, very unusual for Ronny.

When Mother bent to have a look, she got close to his ears and then hauled him over to the window so she could get a better view.

“Ronny Lapointe! What have you got in your ears?”

Ronny looked up at Mother and said, “Aunty, you said yesterday I could plant potatoes in my ears. Well, I thought I could maybe help it along if I put a bit of gravel in there. I sure would like to see a potato grow in my ears. Boy, wouldn’t I have something to tell the guys back in Montreal when I get home.”

I had no idea if he thought seriously that he could plant a potato in his ear by putting in a bit of dirt, or if, as usual, he just wanted to cause a bit of commotion in that old log house out in Renfrew County!

Father was just coming in the back door from the barns and he saw the entire performance.

He lit his pipe, squinted his eyes half shut, as he always did when he saw or heard something he couldn’t believe, and said, “It’s going to be a long winter.

“I’ll tell you, I’m afraid they’ll be here until the spring run-off!”

Adoption is an Option for Children and Youth in Care Last year, approximately 80 children and youth were adopted through the Children’s Aid Society of Ottawa (CASO).

What does this mean?

It means that these children and youth are part of a family. It means they have a place to call home. It means they have a greater chance at success. It’s the beginning of a new adventure – a positive one.

Harbour of horrors

The children at CASO range in age from infants to teens and have been placed in care for a variety of reasons.

The majority of these children however, are school aged or in a sibling group.

No matter what age a child, everyone deserves a family – a place to call home.

If you or someone you know may be interested in adopting, please call the Children’s Aid Society of Ottawa at 613-742-1620 ext 2 or visit www.casott. on.ca.

The most important ingredient to life is providing children with opportunities.

Fitzroy Harbour’s community centre went all out for the undead last Saturday night.

Amelia Reid, top photo, is disturbingly giddy at the prospect of mom Stacey going to jail. Matthew appreciates the gravity. Lion Tristain Hutchinson kept his courage up despite the turmoil. Meanwhile, working the door is Tyler Poirier - writhing in pain and blood - and a pleased Raggedy Anne Pratraleena Rouleau.

Adoption through CASO is referred to as a public adoption. Individuals interested in adopting are provided with access to training, support services pre and post adoption, as well as additional on-going assistance.

CASO places a lot of importance on finding the best match for the children and youth in their care and welcome diversity in adoptive parents – including people who are single or partnered, from all cultural, racial, ethnic and religious backgrounds and are financially able to manage the additional family member(s).

Most importantly, CASO looks for people who are willing to commit to a permanent lifetime relationship with a child or youth.

34 West Carleton Review EMC - Thursday, November 1, 2012

EMC news - Some Ontario Progressive Conservative party members have blasted their leader for not being tough enough to force the Liberal government to put the Ontario legislature back to work.

While PC Leader Tim Hudak insisted that there was no reason why MPPs can’t be at work now focusing on jobs and balancing the books, his followers urged him to be more aggressive and proactive at a town-hall meeting in Premier Dalton McGuinty’s riding of Ottawa South on Oct. 24.

“What I think needs to happen ... is: let’s take him to court and sue him for the illegal closure of legislature...” said one man at the meeting.

“Look like you are proactive in trying to get it back.

Not these talks because this is not going to bring the legislature back,” he said.

Hudak fired back saying he is doing everything possible to put the legislature back in session.

“We are not going to let them go away with this,” he said.

The prorogation issue dominated the meeting that was held at Ottawa’s RA Centre.

Hudak added his party is

doing everything it legally can to get the legislature opened again, but noted that prorogation is at the discretion of the premier.

“Just because they are hiding under their desks doesn’t mean they are going to get off the hook on this.”

TIM HUDAK, PC LEADER

“Just because they are hiding under their desks doesn’t mean they are going to get off the hook on this,” said Hudak.

In a surprise move after nine years in power, on Oct. 15, McGuinty announced he was stepping down as premier.

His announcement came amid opposition accusations that he misled the legislature over power plant cancellations that will cost taxpayers upwards of $230 million and pressure from teachers’ unions over his efforts to freeze their wages and take away their ability to strike.

But McGuinty cited party “renewal” and the opposition’s blocking of a publicsector wage freeze bill as his

reasons for stepping aside.

Hudak said the prorogation was wrong, especially at a time when there is so much at stake in Ontario.

“We are at a crucial tipping point and we are losing jobs.

Ontario is in trouble and people are losing hope,” he said.

“We are not just opposing; we are proposing bold ideas like cutting taxes, and balancing the books and bringing more trades in the province – a bold agenda that will see Ontario lead this great country again.”

While Hudak was addressing his party members, a handful of demonstrators staged a rally outside the RA Centre, protesting Bill 115 legislation, that freezes teachers’ wages, bans strikes for two years and prevents them from banking sick days.

“We are here because the Conservatives not only supported the bill, but they want to make even (more) drastic cuts. They are going after unions and we’ll not stand for it,” said Elizabeth Kettle, member of the Ottawa Carleton Elementary Teachers’ Federation.

“Our message to Tim Hudak: you need to stop now, do the right thing, get back to the legislature and repeal Bill 115.”

Shifting to local food to create 10,000 jobs

36 West Carleton Review EMC - Thursday, November 1, 2012

EMC news - Ontario is helping the agri-food industry grow stronger by celebrating innovators, promoting local food, and launching a $10 local food challenge to increase sales and create jobs across the province.

Premier Dalton McGuinty was at the annual Premier’s Summit on Agri-Food Innovation Oct. 4 to announce Ontario is moving forward with the introduction of a Local Food Act that, if passed, would promote food grown and made in Ontario, and develop goals and targets around the production, processing, distribution, sales and marketing of Ontario food.

As part of that effort, the Premier launched a $10 local food challenge — asking families to shift $10 of their existing weekly food spending to local food. If every Ontario family made the weekly shift it could increase Ontario food sales by $2.4 billion and create 10,000 jobs.

“Ontarians grow the best

food in the world,” McGuinty said. “That’s why we’re continuing to push hard to promote local foods and celebrate our innovators.”

The summit also recognized Ontarians who have contributed to the success of our agri-food sector,” said Ted McMeekin, minister of agriculture, food and rural affairs.

“Ontario’s farmers are great innovators. They generate new market opportunities and help strengthen our rural communities. Recognizing their efforts helps to promote and celebrate the innovative talent we have growing in our agrifood sector.”

• Ontario’s agri-food sector employs more than 700,000 people and contributes more than $33 billion to our economy.

• The Premier’s upcoming trade mission to China, in January 2013, will showcase Ontario both as a great source of quality agri-food products and as a prime investment destination.
