News – There will be more places to find a Vinters Quality Assurance (VQA) Ontario wine thanks to a new provincial strategy allowing for the sale of such wines at farmers’ markets. The provincial government announcement was made Dec. 16 at Niagara College and calls for fiveyear, $75-million Wine and Grape Strategy that will focus on 100 per cent Ontario grown wines. Not only will money be invested to help wineries upgrade technology, equipment and marketing but the government will allow the sales of VQA Ontario wines at farmers’

News – The Carp Road Corridor Business Improvement Area (BIA) will begin its fourth year of operation in 2014 with a look back and a look forward. The organization’s annual general meeting Jan. 22 will take place at the Irish Hills Golf Club from 7:30-9:30 a.m. According to BIA executive director Roddy Bolivar, the meeting is for anyone interested in being part of a collective voice to affect change.
SPECIAL
“The AGM would be a good time for an interested business owner or property owner to get involved and continue to be involved through the year and stand for election at the end of the year,” he said, adding 2013 marks the final year for the current BIA board of directors. The Carp Road Corridor is the only designated rural employment area in Ottawa and has an assessment value in excess of $150-million with more than 200 business and 2,000 employees. “The highlight success of the year was
the member and area consultation on zoning we advocated for with the city responding with a very consultative process. BIA members had long asserted that the zoning which came along in 2008 and in particular the RC zoning which makes up half the Corridor did not really fit (for instance “light industry” was not a permitted use in the RC zone). Changes are expected to be formalized by a zoning by-law update in early 2014,” said Bolivar. See AGM, page 2

markets. A grape and wine secretariat will also be established and will be headed by Premier and Minister of the Agriculture Kathleen Wynne and Minister of Environment Jim Bradley. The new secretariat is designed to find ways for government and Ontario wine industry partners to work better together. “I’m committed to support this innovative industry and I encourage consumers to choose Ontario wines first as they share them with family and friends this holiday season and throughout the year,” said Wynne in press release.

AGM will review past year, look to future West students celebrate the holidays Continued from front page
He said another major undertaking during the past year was being involved in the city’s Official Plan (OP) and Master Plan process. “We attended all opportunities to meet with city staff and made a number of submissions including presenting to committee on our view on the city’s employment strategy. An important change in the OP is recognition of the corridor under the city’s employment policies,” Bolivar added. One of the important issues of business at the upcoming AGM will be voting on the new budget. And this year, members will be asked to support of a budget increase of $15,000 “After three straight years
at $100,000, the board is bringing forward a budget of $115,000 with the additional $15,000 earmarked to apply for economic development grants. Such grants usually at least double and in some cases triple the money,” said Bolivar, adding the increase in budget will only be if the BIA is successful with grant applications. He said the main objective of the board in 2014 is to begin a discussion with the city regarding municipal infrastructure for the corridor. “For instance, would improvements to roads result in better business opportunity for existing businesses? To move forward in the discussion, the board wants to work to quantify the relationship
– how much would improved services cost and how many jobs would those improved services promote,” said Bolivar. “The corridor is an employment area and more jobs in the city is an objective of the city, the BIA and every corridor business member.” Any BIA member who feels they need improved services is welcome to attend the AGM. He emphasized the board needs to hear from members who believe “current levels of service (roads, transit water and hydro) from the city are holding their business growth back.” For more information on the upcoming AGM or any BIA activities, contact Roddy Bolivar at 613-314-7597 or roddy.bolivar@crcbia.ca.

Community – In anticipation of the holidays, West Carleton Secondary School students celebrated with a Christmas spirit week during their final days of school before their two week vacation. The first of the four spirit days the students celebrated was Christmas hat day. Following, the students dressed in red and green. Also on Tuesday was the annual dance show for dance students, and career fair for co-op students. Wednesday the students kept warm in their classic Christmas sweaters, and their four day week ended with pa-
jama day as well as a Christmas assembly in the gym. The assembly said farewell to the secondary school students with games and videos organized by the student council. Students from all grades joined in on the festive activities such as the eggnog drinking contest and Christmas song karaoke, as they said “goodbye” to their friends and teachers for the two week break. With Christmas songs playing over the school speakers in between classes, everyone was in the holiday spirit. Contributing to the festive energy were Principal Reg Lavern, and vice principals Darryl Kicul and Denise Croteau. The three traveled together around the
school giving candy canes to each student and wishing them a happy holiday.

I prefer not to comment at the moment,” said Carp market manager Ennio Marcantonio.

Memories matter at West Carleton new business Resting Paws Pet Cemetery and Crematorium offers full service pet after-care Sherry Haaima Sherry.haaima@metroland.com
Community – West Carleton’s newest business is indeed a pet cemetery, but that’s where the similarities with Stephen King’s horror story end. Patrick and Sabine Couture are the proud owners of the Resting Paws Pet Cemetery and Crematorium Inc. on Torbolton Ridge Road, the only full-service pet after-care centre in the area. Far from macabre, the building is bright and serene and the property is designed as an ideal final resting place for that beloved family pet. Roxy the greeter dog is happy to welcome guests and even happier to meet people willing to take a minute to throw her precious Frisbee. “We aim to bridge the gap between pet owners and veterinary clinics once a family pet passes away,” said Patrick. The idea for the business was inspired by one of Patrick’s pastimes and the family’s own experience with

The Coutures have always owned pets and their own experiences have helped them understand how to help people dealing with loss. “The personal touch is really important to us,” said Sabine. “We treat everybody – people and animals – with the respect they deserve.” There is an open-door policy – clients are welcome to see any area of the facility and are welcome to come back to visit plots or areas where their pets ashes have been scattered. For clients wishing to have their pet’s ashes returned, private cremation is recommended. The animal is cremated alone and once completed, the ashes are returned to the client in a complimentary biodegradable urn. Communal cremation services are also offered, during which several animals are created at the same time. Ashes are then scattered on the cemetery grounds and a tribute marker can be purchased and placed near the scattering area. So far there have been eight private cremations and three or four communals. Dogs, cats, a love bird and even a guinea pig are among the animals who have been cremated. Reaction to Resting Paws has been positive. People are sometimes taken aback at first, but upon further consideration often see the value in having the services available. And while some have said ‘We’re from Dunrobin, we bury our pets in the backyard,’ three or four of the cremations done in the first weeks have been from Dunrobin. The Coutures have focused on supporting local businesses wherever possible, as well, and hope to become a strong partner with local enterprises. They hope to grow the business eventually, with construction done to accommodate a second crematory when it’s needed. For more information visit the website resting pawsottawa.com .

sers and the like led him to making urns for pet ashes – complete with plaques or black granite or white marble etchings. Marketing the urns led the couple to do more research into the industry and they realized there was a definite market for the services offered at Resting Paws. Crematory services are offered in Pembroke but are no longer offered in Ottawa, where animals are shipped to Guelph for cremation. There are no nearby facilities that offer the full gamut of services, from pickup to cremation to burial of the animal or scattering of the ashes. So what requirements are there for creating such a business? “You need to be crazy,” said Patrick with a laugh. Patience and a willingness to learn also help. Getting Resting Paws off the ground began in August 2011 and the doors just opened Nov. 13. “That’s how long it took to get all the permits and all the details worked out,” said Sabine. It was years of planning, regulations and red tape to get the business going. “They threw the book at us, and it got to the point that it was getting quite expensive,” she said. Their perseverance and solid planning paid off. “In a project like this you have to see the full picture through to the end,” said Patrick. “It’s a huge investment.” First came the property acquisition, with the Coutures eying up property already zoned for cemetery use. The 15 acres on Torbolton Ridge Road best fit the bill for the couple, who live in the west end of Ottawa. Then came the task of grooming the property, constructing the building and purchasing and installing the 18,000-pound crematorium. To learn more about the business and operating a crematory, Patrick attended a funeral directors convention in the United States where he made a connection with a pet crematorium and cemetery in Chicago, Ill. He and Sabine returned later to spend some time with the owners and learn everything they could. They

Arts – A snowstorm couldn’t keep students from the West Carleton School of Performing Arts (WCSOPA) from showcasing their talents, or an enthusiastic audience from cheering them on. The Woodlawn school’s annual winter showcase took place at the school at 3987 Dunrobin Rd. Dec. 15. This was just as people were digging out from a snowstorm that dumped more than 15 centimetres of snow on the Ottawa area and disrupted many Sunday plans. The 13th annual showcase featured three mini shows lasting approximately 35 minutes each by WCSOPA dance and drama students, from recreational and competitive fields, showed off their talents. “This is our 13th annual holiday showcase. Time flies,” said WC-

She said the event is a “very family friendly opportunity to be exposed to the performing arts” and is intended to cultivate an appreciation of dance and drama. “The show went great and we had a packed audience despite the blizzard outside the performances were flawless and the smiles contagious,” said WCSOPA director Melissa Demers. While the showcase was an opportunity for students to perform, it was also a fundraising event. “The showcase doubled as a fundraiser for new equipment.

Moms helping moms Area woman tackles postpartum depression; creates webpage Jessica Cunha jessica.cunha@metroland.com
News - Natasha Rose was feeling extremely anxious, fatigued and overwhelmed after the birth of her second child. “I ended up having a really bad, what I’d call, a panic attack. I didn’t know what was happening to me,” she said. “It was the most paralyzing and debilitating thing I’ve ever experienced. I didn’t know how I was going to take care of my two children.” Mother to Shea, 3, and Camille, nine months, a visit to the doctor confirmed that Rose was experiencing severe postpartum anxiety, a form of postpartum depression. “I’d never felt depressed before,” said the Kanata woman. But she wasn’t able to take part in any of her day-to-day activities. She said she was lucky she has a supportive husband, Kurtis, who helped her through. Although hospitals give new moms a package of information, there’s almost nothing mentioned about postpartum depression – nurses only give a verbal warning, Rose said, adding that although public health nurses call one week after the birth, that’s too soon. One of the biggest misconceptions about postpartum depression is that it happens right away, she said, but symptoms can take weeks or months to show. Rose, who works in the developmental and services worker program at Algonquin College,
began researching postpartum depression online, asking questions on social message boards and talking with other mothers. “What I realized in my own personal search is that it’s difficult to find and access resources,” she said. “When you feel that bad it can be difficult to advocate for yourself. “These women helped me, they gave me strength.” As she struggled to find solutions that worked for her, an idea popped into her head. She created a Facebook group – Moms Helping Moms with Postpartum Depression – in August to be an online social community of support where people can ask questions and find resources. She shared her own story in the hope that it could help others. “For me, the major (hurdle) was saying ‘I’m not OK’ and asking for help,” she said. “You think people will think and wonder what’s wrong with you. “I felt like if I became transparent it would help other women.” From there, it just took off, she said. She created a webpage and hosted a get together with other mothers. She said she wants to create a free “one-stop shop” for mothers with postpartum depression, with links to resources, articles and suggestions about what helped her. “You can go to one place and find most of what you’re looking for,” she said. “From there it became my mission and my goal.” She said she doesn’t give advice, but op-
tions. “The response has been overwhelming,” Rose said. “People are coming forward to share their stories.” With a background in education, her goal is to raise awareness about postpartum depression and help erase the stigma attached to the diagnosis. In talking with others, she’s heard more than a few mothers say they were scared to go to the hospital and seek help because they thought their children would be taken away from them. But getting help is the most important thing a mother can do, said Rose. “Find someone you trust so you can say ‘Look, I don’t feel well.’” There are various levels of postpartum depression (courtesy of postpartum.net), which include: * Postpartum depression: feelings of anger, sadness, irritability, guilt, lack of interest in the baby, changes in eating and sleeping habits, inability to concentrate or thoughts of self-harming or hurting the baby. * Postpartum anxiety: feelings of losing control, extreme worries and fears, panic attacks, shortness of breath, chest pain, dizziness, numbness and tingling. * Postpartum obsessive-compulsive disorder: repetitive, upsetting and unwanted thoughts or mental images, feel the need to do things over and over to reduce anxiety. * Postpartum post-traumatic stress disorder: often caused by a traumatic or frightening childbirth, symptoms can include flashbacks of the trauma and feelings of anxiety, the need to avoid things related to the event. * Postpartum psychosis: can include hal-

Natasha Rose created a webpage to help mothers experiencing postpartum depression, after her own diagnosis when she found it difficult to find and access resources. lucinations, believing things that aren’t true, mistrusting others, periods of confusion and memory loss. This is a severe and dangerous condition and anyone experiencing these symptoms should seek immediate help. “We can’t do everything. We all need a little bit of help sometimes,” said Rose. “My new motto is ‘Just ask.’ I’m not afraid anymore. “It doesn’t last forever. There is hope,” she added. “In the darkness, there is light.” For more information, visit Rose’s webpage momshelpingmoms.ca or search Facebook for Moms Helping Moms with Postpartum Depression.

Christmases past still haunt me – in a good way Lifestyle - When I was a little girl, my parents and sister and I would pack boxes of wrapped gifts and casseroles into our station wagon and high-tail it into the city to spend Christmas Eve at Grandma’s house. I remember one Christmas where my cousin did our hair in rollers, we put our nightgowns on and sang carols for the adults. She was a bit bossy, and she sang off key but it was fun all the same. Every Christmas Eve we were allowed to open one gift and I am guessing we didn’t get to choose which package we opened because it always by some miracle turned out to be a new set of flannel pajamas. I do have a vague memory of hearing a ruckus and being absolutely convinced that Santa and his reindeer were on the roof. There was no chimney but that didn’t seem to concern me. In my eight-year-old logic I figured the fat man could find a way down the laundry chute that went from the attic to the basement. We left him cookies and milk on Grandma’s kitchen table and
DIANA FISHER Accidental Farmwife tucked ourselves into the spare rooms we used once a year, as early as possible, so that morning would come even faster. MORNING EXCITEMENT
In the morning, we awoke to find red felt stockings stuffed to the brim with all manner of things to occupy a kid for an extra hour or so before getting out of bed. This, I’m sure, was meant to buy the parents a few more moments of sleep. Not sure it worked at all as a strategy. We did a lot of whispering and giggling over our candy and magazines but after a few minutes we couldn’t stand it anymore and swung skinny legs out from under the covers and tiptoed down the stairs to the living room. There, under the Christmas tree and spilling out across the
floor were brightly coloured packages – but the best surprises were often the ones that weren’t wrapped. For some reason I figured those unwrapped ones must have come directly from Santa himself, because he would be too busy to wrap. Soon our parents would join us and allow us to start unwrapping. It’s interesting to me now that the gifts themselves don’t make the memories. It’s the ritual, the sight and sounds of tradition and family that I remember most. After a quick breakfast we got cleaned up and put on our Sunday best to have Christmas lunch at my aunt’s house. Flash forward to 1991, when I was pregnant with my second. That Christmas I was due to give birth and my aunt actually suggested I eat in the kitchen, instead of in the dining room with
everyone else (because she was worried about her rug). To this day I do not know if she was joking or not. Jump forward a few more years and I was spending Christmas overseas, in Asia. I hung a few ornaments and lights on a palm tree. Not the same thing. Christmas in Australia was fun, but 30 degrees at midnight and prawns on the Barbie do not a yuletide make. In 2007 I spent my first Christmas as The Accidental Farmwife. And the last with my father. I have a photo of him suited up to go snowmobiling on Boxing Day, because there was a good early snow that year. He passed away three weeks later. Our traditions have evolved over the years, but we embrace the new ones as we did the past. I think I’m going to start a Christmas holiday family ski trip tradition. I’m sure we can fit one in somewhere. I’m bringing my camera along. This is going to be fun. As we say goodbye to 2013, I’m thinking it was a pretty good year. Bring on 2014.
LETTER
Teacher’s special efforts really make a big difference “show and tell.” I am sure I did but nothing compared to what I experienced for the short length of time I was in the classroom. As I was setting up I could not help but notice the stimulating displays, organized stations and charts for the students to follow. But my big pleasure was watching how Madame Caroline had those children mesmerized with her attitude, tone of voice and silently powerful smile. We all want our children to behave especially in school but it seemed effortless and obviously important to
all the children to cooperate with Madame. We rarely get to see our family in a different setting other than our homes and now I recognize the things they have been taught in their classroom. The children were more than eager to see what she had planned for them and to make sure they did it correctly. Madame Caroline’s positive attitude is just magical. I am sure everyone who has ever mentioned tidy up time would like to know Madam’s Caroline secret. Maybe it is the magic flute? I also know that

Ward 5 West Carleton-March CHRISTMAS TREE SAFETY AND DISPOSAL If you are planning to keep your real Christmas tree up and decorated for a few more days, please remember to water it daily and double check the tree lights to ensure they are in good working order. As your Christmas tree dries, it becomes a fire hazard that could easily ignite. Make sure the tree is well away from heat sources such as fireplaces, heaters or candles. If you are ready to dispose of your tree, trees will be picked up as part of the regular garbage and recycling collection schedule in January. Trees must be free of decorations and not wrapped in plastic bags. Check the City of Ottawa Collection Calendar for your Christmas tree pick-up schedule. RURAL TO RURAL ACCESSIBLE TAXI SERVICE PILOT PROJECT ENDS DECEMBER 31 I’d like to remind residents that this ongoing pilot project runs until December 31, 2013, at which time the CSS agencies will evaluate the success of the program and the results will be communicated to the Transit Commission. This service is for non-ambulatory customers who use a wheelchair or scooter. This service runs Monday to Friday, 9am to 4pm. Reservations must be made at least 48 hours in advance by contacting the CSS agency in the Ward 5 area, which is the Western Ottawa Community Resource Centre, 613-591-3686. I’d like to encourage residents with accessibility needs to use this service as much as possible over the next few days. Full details of this service are outlined on my website under the “Lastest News” section of the homepage.

And she has two small boys of her own and recently her husband was severely injured in a farming accident.

It’s been another good year
T
he year 2013 has been many things. Here in Ottawa, it has been a year of new beginnings. A stadium is in the works, tunnels are bored beneath the streets, two new sporting institutions are taking shape, and official plans have been ratified to guide our city into the future. It was a year of a terrible tragedy, when the lives of six people were lost during a horrific bus crash near the Fallowfield Transitway station. Dozens were injured. We can only hope that the lessons learned from that tragic moment in time will help us prevent such a thing from ever happening again. It has been a year of controversy. Daniel Alfredsson snuck out of town in the middle of the night. Tall towers have been planned and opposed, heritage has been preserved and destroyed, buses have been diverted, highways constricted by construction. Bridges have been delayed, bridges have been abandoned, and bridges have been mired in mismanagement. It was a bad year for bridges. It wasn’t a particularly good year for electronic bus passes either. It has been a year of consistency. Winter was cold, summer was steamy and property tax increases were kept to a minimum. Bluesfest still rocked. Our mayor still managed to appear at every pancake
breakfast and barbecue he could. Elsewhere, political uncertainty and scandal were hallmarks of 2013. Ontario witnessed the arrival of Kathleen Wynne as premier. She has been dogged by the legacy of her predecessor, and Queen’s Park has teetered on the brink of an election ever since. On Parliament Hill, things haven’t been much different. The Senate expense scandal has gobbled up great chunks of time in both the red chamber and House of Commons. When it wasn’t the trials and tribulations of Mike Duffy, Pamela Wallin and Patrick Brazeau leading the evening news or topping the front pages, there was always Toronto’s Rob Ford there to fill the vacuum. Yet through it all, Ottawa has a great deal to be thankful for. Despite federal public service job cuts, the city is still faring better economically than many across the province. The light rail system currently under construction will revolutionize transit and spur development across the city. Ottawa is a wonderfully green city, with parks and open spaces easily accessible to all who live here. It is a vibrant city, with culture to spare for those who wish to seek it out. The past year has been many things, but it has proven once again how fortunate we are to live in the nation’s capital.

The heartwarming technology of Christmas
T
he technology is lining up pretty well for Christmas this year. Santa’s helpers at the mall will, for a small fee, put your child’s photo with the big guy on a flash drive for you. So there’s that worry taken care of. It needs hardly to be said that online shopping grows every year. People don’t have to go out to be among other people, except to get their flash drives from Santa’s helpers. Also, the word has just come in that it is now possible to buy Christmas trees online. Home Depot in the U.S. has put trees on its website. Ikea sells them in Britain and there’s another big company in Sweden that does it too. Meanwhile, Amazon is working on a delivery drone. This is a great relief to those people who thought they might have to go out of the house this season and interact with other people. And there’s this other advantage, found in a newspaper quote from a happy California online tree shopper – “no needles in the car!� Yes. It’s such a drag at this time of year to have a car that smells like Christmas trees. It reminds you of, well, Christmas. So things are moving right along. Not that there isn’t room for improvement.

CHARLES GORDON Funny Town children are not being co-operative. They are becoming less and less enthusiastic about having their pictures taken. This may have to do with the fact that every adult they know now has a camera, often disguised as a phone, and the children are constantly forced to pose. And now they have to stand in line in the mall so that their parents can get them and Santa on a flash drive so that they can email photos instead of writing Christmas cards. But you know, progress is inevitable. Some day it will possible to have robots that will look like children and be more co-operative in front of cameras. There still remains the necessity of going outside for certain things, such as the picture of Santa and your robot. But surely, if we can

put a man on the moon, we can fix this. Which leads us, reluctantly, to the following heart-warming Christmas story. The Christmas Drone It had been a difficult day and Bob was wondering whether this might turn out to be the worst Christmas ever. First the children had, for the fourth visit in a row, refused to have their picture taken with Santa. There would be no flash drive this Christmas. Then the outdoor Christmas lights refused to turn on automatically, which meant that Bob had to go outside to flip a switch. Then the WiFi went down. “Oh no!� cried Bob. “How will I finish my Christmas shopping?� The Christmas cards were all stuck in the community mailbox with care and the Christmas tree he had ordered online was nowhere in sight. When all of a sudden there arose such a clatter on the roof that Bob wondered he would have to get new insulation. But he sprang out of his house to see what was the matter, hoping he could remember the access code to get back in, and lo and behold his eyes beheld a tiny little airplane. He was hoping that the tiny little airplane could talk, otherwise it would be difficult to
tell the rest of the story. “Where did you come from?� he asked the tiny little airplane. “I’m The Christmas Drone,� the tiny little airplane said. “I come from Amazon to bring presents to all the little children of the world and their lazy parents.� “Did you bring my Christmas tree?� Bob asked. “Not my job,� the Christmas Drone said. “The Ikea drone should be along any minute.� “This will be the happiest Christmas ever!� said Bob, although, to tell the truth, he was getting a bit tired of the clatter on the rooftop.

Children and the Child Before all the joy and celebration at St. Michael’s concert on the evening of Dec. 17 principal Dwight Delahunt welcomed families with a few words, including: “It’s the season of the Child. But it’s also the season of the children, your children.” The children entertained to much applause with skits such as “The Littlest Christmas Tree” by grades 1 and 2 classes, above; and Mrs. O’Rourke’s junior and senior kindegarteners.
It can’t be a Christmas concert without at least one song accompanied by bells. This time it was “Joy to the World”. Other acts to make the Late Show with David Letterman’s top 10 list including a clever variation of “What Does Fox Say” called “What Does Elf Say” and a very sweet fiddle version of “The Little Drummer Boy” and a lively “Jingle Bells”.
It wasn’t exactly barn animals, but at least one none human friend was invited to the show. Dance, too, was among the many talents on display. West Carleton Review EMC - Thursday, December 26, 2013 9

Many triumphs, tragedies unfold in West Carleton in 2013 News – Take a trip down memory lane and look back on some of the happenings in West Carleton between July and December 2013. JANUARY
The year started off with a proposal by the Progressive Conservative Party to sell off Ontario Lottery and Gaming Corporation (OLG). In a series of white papers that proposed significant changes to labour law, health care, and energy,
the PCs under Tim Hudak also floated the idea of selling off the LCBO and OLG. Critics pointed to the Criminal Code which says proceeds of gambling must be collected by the government. Local MPP Jack MacLaren shot back saying
a PC government would still collect significant tax from a privatized OLG. Wilbur, the Pinto Valley Ranch pig who endangered himself and others with his cavalier attitude toward traffic along Galetta Side Road, found a new – and much safer – home this month. “Lots of
people come up to us in the summer and say they saw our pig walking down the middle of the road, on the yellow line, but that’s just what he likes to do,” said owner Tracey Jardine. “He’s a very confident pig.” Wilbur called Ottawa South home these days.
Ottawa River ice to save their pet pooch found themselves in want of saving. Having pushed an aluminum boat to about the midway point, they were spotted from Ferry Road stuck with the dog after the ice gave way. Rescuers from the fire services brought them back safe and sound.

Year starts with tragic loss of life on the Ottawa River Continued from Page 11
A mother and son died after their car slid into the river at the end of Ferry Road, just metres from the family home. Donna and Daron Graves, 61 and 29 respectively, for a couple of days beforehand were unaccounted for. It was tricky work for emergency crews to pull the vehicle from the ice-covered river. The iconic Cheshire Cat pub burnt to the ground on Monday, Jan. 28. A former one-room schoolhouse built in 1883, the restaurant recently underwent extensive renovations and an expansion. The cause of the fire is thought to have been old wires chewed through by We had several interviews with West Carleton residents who regularly appear on national mice.

One of the central in-frontof-the-cameras personalities at YTV is West Carleton Secondary School alumni Andy Chapman. The host of the hilarious Extreme Babysitting where unsuspecting teens find themselves on the wrong end of an elaborate prank, Chapman is also the Saturday morning bloc host and a comic paying his dues on the mostly Toronto area circuit. The restaurant scene was in flux last winter, with Sammy’s, a burger and fries joint that builds off its namesake’s popularity in Dunrobin, felt some growing pains and had to reduce hours to become a summer operation. The Greystone Grill opened
to much fanfare in October 2012, but troubles showed when sporadic hours began appearing. Meanwhile, longtime eateries The Lighthouse and The Point Lounge cruised along as per usual on the dining front. Residents along Second Line Road were none too pleased when they learned the city was going to change their name. Other parts of the amalgamated city share the same name, which can lead to confusion and the loss of crucial time for responders in an emergency. Many agreed the change was needed, but they didn’t appreciate the short list. They wanted something that better reflected the historic name, not a former Kanata mayor. See SCHOOL, Page 13

Early March was when word first emerged that weapons-grade uranium waste could pass along Highway 417. The toxic brew, containing highly enriched uranium would travel from Atomic Energy of Canada’s laboratories in Chalk River to a site in South Carolina. It was to take several trips between late 2013 and 2016, though exact details are kept secret for security reasons. A Dunrobin paddler won a silver and two
bronze medals at the Pan-American Championships in Mexico. Cameron Smedley, 22, first made his presence felt on the international scene when he secured a second place finish in the pre-world championships in 2006. He was even slated to participate in the 2012 London Olympics but a controversial decision by the International Canoe Federation denied Canada a spot in the competition.
Ontario’s Secondary Schools 2013 was received with some caution by the school administration. Principal Colin Anderson credited the students, staff and others for the school’s long-term success. At the elementary school level, St. Michael’s Catholic in Corkery placed 142nd, Stonecrest 1,107, and Huntley 1,405 out of 2,714. St. Michael’s Fitzroy was not included. The third time was (sort of) a charm for police in Constance Bay. They finally nabbed the vandals who were repeatedly attacking St. Gabriel’s Church Hall during recent weeks.

province. Food and trash were tossed everywhere, causing great frustration among the 150 parishioners of the Bayview Drive Catholic church. Young offenders were caught and confessed. They were too young to have their names publicized. A parkette was named in honour of Bert Reitsma.

The many horse owners and horse ranch businesses in West Carleton had a difficult year of unpredictability in 2013. The future of horse racing at the Rideau Carleton Raceway was left in limbo after the Slots-At-Racetracks program was cancelled. The raceway already cut programming from three race days down to two, said National Capital Region Harness Horse Association president John MacMillan. The fear and uncertainty grew worse when the slots were shut down. “Horse people have essentially been left out in the cold,” he said. Since its inception in 1998, the slots program has helped sustain the industry by providing about $3.7 billion in slot revenue. Horse people took home 10 per cent of that money. Horse racing employs many rural residents locally and throughout the
Anglers and hunters were united with environmentalists when it came to Conservative changes to the federal waters’ act. It remains unclear whether anyone can legally canoe or boat on rivers such as the Madawaska, Mississippi, Carp and Jock rivers. The government scaled back federal control in favour of private, giving landowners more latitude to obstruct public access on millions of lakes and rivers. Red flags first went up when the 130-year-old Navigable Waters Protection Act – used to dictated where bridges and other obstructions to waterway navigation are allowed – was changed to the Navigation Protection Act that oversees just 8,500 rivers, including the Ottawa. Constance Bay’s Karen McCrimmon didn’t win the federal Liberal leadership race, but she says she gained invaluable experience travelling across the country learning about Canadians and is ready to take on the Conservatives during the 2015 election in Carleton-Mississippi Mills.

Eleven-year-old Anna Jorgensen became a published author when her debut children’s book, Chevy Want Cheese, was released this month. The Fitzroy Harbour resident and Stonecrest student loves all things creative followed a writing program created by her father David. The book about a dog’s venturesome quest for cheese is available at Penny’s Fudge Factory.
In response to community inquiries the city floated the idea of a skatepark for Carp. The city said youths would have to show a strong interest and the community would have to generate some of the money, but if the demand could be proven, the city would consider it. It would be about $200,000 and located near the outdoor rink.

Hydro One complaints have piled up over the last few years, but few were more shocking than that of Judy Kauffeld’s. The Pamure Road resident’s typical bill of about $123 came in at $644. MPP Jack MacLaren has fielded plenty of calls on Hydro One bills. He hears more complaints about Hydro One than anything else. In fact, he has had problems with the electricity provider. “I don’t have any confidence in the bills,” MacLaren said. A recent bill was a historic high, even though his kids are grown and he spends much time in Toronto. The Point Dining Lounge in Constance Bay was hit with a 45-day licence suspension after it was found at fault for over serving Jeremy Rees, the drunk driver who killed a young mother of twins. It was The Point’s sixth suspension, though the first in seven years.
It was revealed that use of the West Carleton Food Aid catapulted by 40 per cent while donations plummeted by 37 per cent this year. “That’s unheard of. We can’t keep going that way,” said food aid auditor Gary Robillard. The group determined it would need another $10,000 soon just for food. In the first six months, they filled more than 190 orders. At the same time last year the number of orders was 163. A volunteer firefighter in Carp was to make another court appearance in a hit-and-run case that saw a female cyclist harmed along McGee Side Road. Trevor Clark faces charges of impaired driving causing bodily harm, over .08 causing bodily harm, and failing to remain at the scene of an accident. His next court appearance is January 20, 2014. See highlights from July to December in the Jan. 2, 2014 edition of the West Carleton Review.

Lincoln’s MKC Moves from Concept to Production by Brian Turner
Lincoln marked another milestone recently in its journey to compete decisively in the prestige and luxury market with the all-new 2015 MKC SPV (Small Premium Utility Vehicle). The Lincoln design team faced the dual challenge of meeting the ever-changing demands of younger luxury vehicle consumers while further defining the Lincoln design DNA. The MKC Concept, which was revealed to the public at the 2013 North American International Auto Show in Detroit in January, introduced a uniquely crafted wraparound lift-gate, a design feature that carried over to the production model. Its side-cut design gives MKC an uninterrupted rear-view to epitomize elegance, while its hands-free feature is another example of Lincoln’s commitment to build customer-friendly vehicles. Those aspirations also carry through to the interior, where the merging of craftsmanship and technology combine to offer a warm, luxurious environment. Featuring an architecturally unique instrument panel that showcases Lincoln’s signature push-button gear shifter, MKC creates an open, welcoming interior. Inviting leathers and available Bridge of Weir leather and real-wood trim accentuate
MKC’s elegance and grace. “We gave attention to every detail to convey a stylish, luxurious vehicle,” said Soo Kang, Lincoln interior design chief. “The structure of the interior allows for openness, and that space contributes to the overall ambience. We want this vehicle to not only meet but often exceed the expectations of the new Lincoln customer.” “We’re confident we’ve created an allnew vehicle that will attract new customers to the brand while meeting the expectations of long-time Lincoln drivers,” said Max Wolff, director, Lincoln Design. “The execution of the new liftgate is a prime example of how a signature premium design element can create a better customer experience.” In the 2015 MKC, Lincoln will introduce a series of customer-focused comfort features they call ‘Lincoln Experiences’. Systems such as ‘Approach Detection’ will allow the MKC to respond to an approaching owner (identified by the key in his or her possession) and illuminate the ground near the doors and in the outer door handle pockets for easier and safer entry. A communication system will allow drivers to interact with the vehicle remotely using the
smart phone-enabled MyLincoln Mobile app. An embedded modem on each vehicle communicates with the app which allows owners to start, lock, unlock and locate the vehicle. Drivers also can use the app to perform a variety of other functions such as place a call for roadside assistance; monitor the vehicle’s fuel level; check the tire pressure and battery status; and program engine start times. .“Lincoln Experiences are about creating a warm, personal driving experience every time a Lincoln owner approaches their vehicle,” said Matt VanDyke, Director, Global Lincoln. “Today’s premium car buyer is more demanding than ever. Our goal is to create vehicles that not only meet those evolving demands, but exceed them and redefine what the luxury car-buying and driving experience should be.” Production of the all-new 2015 Lincoln MKC is slated to begin in the second quarter of 2014 at the Louisville Assembly Plant in Louisville, Ky. Vehicles will begin arriving to Lincoln dealerships next summer. Canadian pricing has been announced, starting at $39,940.

CARSTAR Kanata: Welcoming Customers with Reliable Experts for All Types of Automotive Service
We Offer:
Full Service Mechanical Wheel Alignments
by Brian Turner
Tire Sales, Installation and Balancing
What few people outside of the auto repair business know is that in order to run a successful body-shop like CARSTAR Kanata, a complete and effective support system must be in place to deal with the mechanical, electrical, and electronics components of a modern vehicle in order to return it to like-new condition after a collision. To that end, Yvon Allard has recruited and trained an elite team of automotive specialists and has installed all the equipment needed to successfully deal with the technology-laden vehicles that roll down our roads today. This team continually receives training and updates to keep them on top of emerging vehicle design and manufacturing trends for all makes and models.
So it was a natural progression for CARSTAR Kanata to offer a full menu of maintenance and mechanical repair services for those car owners seeking an affordable and reliable service provider without having the need for a collision repair service. Now Yvonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s customers can get just about any required service from a quick and thorough oil change to a brake-system overhaul to an airconditioning recharge and so much more without having to deal multiple shops and long waits for appointments. The nation-wide resources of CARSTAR have made a lot of this possible and the end result is a growth in repeat business. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We are impressed by CARSTARâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s extensive guidance and impeccable training programs,â&#x20AC;? says Yvon. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Our ultimate goal has always been to provide an unsurpassed customer service experience and we will continue to do that as part of the CARSTAR network. We want every one of our customers to remain a lifetime customer.â&#x20AC;? So whether your vehicle is in need of a set of quality winter tires, an engine oil change service, a suspension repair, or any of a myriad of automotive needs that arise every day, CARSTAR Kanata is the place to go. And donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t forget they offer a complete range of auto glass repair and replacement services, all backed by a nation-wide guarantee.

Thai chicken dinner better than take out Lifestyle - This mildly spicy dinner is super easy and much more economical than take out. Serve with rice. P r e p a r a t i o n Time: 15 minutes Cooking Time: 30 minutes Serves: two Ingredients • 1 tbsp (15 mL) vegetable oil • Six boneless skinless chicken thighs or two boneless skinless chicken breasts, cut into bite-size chunks • Pinch each salt and pepper • Half small onion, thinly sliced • 2 cloves garlic, minced • 1 tbsp (15 mL) Thai red curry paste • 1 can (400 mL) light coconut milk • 1 lime • 2 tsp (10 mL) fish sauce • 1/2 tsp (2 mL) granulated sugar • 1 Ontario Sweet Potato, peeled and cut into 1/2inch (1 cm) pieces • 1 cup (250 mL) sliced mushrooms • Chopped fresh coriander •
R0012477047-1226
Preparation instructions In large wide saucepan, heat oil over medium-high heat. Season chicken with salt and pepper; cook until golden all over, about five minutes. Remove and set aside. Add onion, garlic and more oil to pan if necessary; cook, stirring frequently, until slightly softened, about three minutes. Add curry paste and stir until fragrant, about 30 seconds. Add coconut milk to pan. Remove a couple of wide strips of peel from lime; add to pan along with 1 tbsp (15 mL) lime juice. Add fish sauce and sugar; bring to boil. Return chicken to pan along
with sweet potato and mushrooms; stir. Cover and simmer gently, stirring occasionally, until potatoes are tender and juices run clear when chicken is pierced, about 15 minutes.

2014 Walk for Memories aims Earn Extra Money! Keep Your Weekends Free! to be the biggest event yet Jessica Cunha jessica.cunha@metroland.com
News - The 2014 Walk for Memories in support of the Alzheimer Society of Ottawa and Renfrew County aims to be the biggest and best one yet. With the number of participants hovering around the 600-person mark in 2013, not to mention just over $260,000 raised in funds for the society, the organizing committee is hoping the event draws even higher numbers. “We just keep setting our sights a little higher,” said Tracey Pagé, who has been on the committee since the beginning of the event in 1996. The Kanata woman was instrumental in creating the Walk for Memories, which has steadily grown over the years. That first walk raised $22,000 and saw 175 participants. The goal for the 2014 walk is to have more than 600 people participate either in teams or individually and raise $275,000 for the Alzheimer Society. “What these funds do is they support people in the community who are living with dementia,” she said. The funds also help provide for caregivers. “It stays in the community for support, education and resources,” said Pagé, who grew up in Manotick. “Anyone who’s had a family member with dementia, they know there’s a lot of care required.” The 2014 Walk for Memories will take place on Sunday, Jan. 26, from 9 a.m. to noon at the Carleton University Fieldhouse. The event
is held annually on the last Sunday in January at the conclusion of Alzheimer Awareness Month. “It’s fun for the whole family,” said Pagé. “It’s got that unique element. You can give a little bit back with some exercise and some fun.” Last year’s walk saw around 60 teams participate, many decked out in team costumes or colour-coordinated outfits. Ages ranged from infants to grandparents, said Pagé. There are lanes for all speeds, she added, so wheelchairs and strollers are more than welcome. Participants who raise $100 or more will also receive a free T-shirt. “We wanted to have an activity centre run by the youth and driven by the youth,” said Pagé. “It’ll be educational and an activity at the same time so there’s something other than walking.” A memory board and slideshow will also be set up during the walk. Attendees are invited to submit a photo by email of who they’re walking for ahead of time, or they can post a photo or phrase on the message board the day of the event. “We like to see people’s faces lighting up when they see their family member’s pictures of who they’re walking for,” said Pagé. The Sons of Scotland pipe band will lead the first lap around the track, and Ozone and Free Association will provide live musical entertainment. To register, visit walkformemories.ca. For more information, visit alzheimer.ca/ottawa, email thicks@asorc.org, or call 613-523-4004 ext. 132.

This particular Christmas concert was memorable for many reasons Lifestyle - The Christmas concerts at the Northcote School usually went off without a hitch. Miss Crosby saw to that! For the entire month of December we had rehearsals every day after school. Never could we miss even a minute of our studies. Oh no, not with Miss Crosby! That meant it was getting on to dark by the time we walked the three-and-a-half-mile trek back home. And every last pupil had to take part. It didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t matter if you had a voice like a crow, you sang in the choir. If you were so shy, you couldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t say your name out loud, you had a part in the Nativity scene anyway. And the program rarely varied. The parents who crowded into the Northcote School to see their children perform could count on a repeat performance of the year before. That is, all except that one year when everything that could go wrong, went wrong! We had rehearsed until we knew our lines backwards and frontwards. The tree was up in the corner, and the school room had been scrubbed from top to bottom. Christmas messages were written on the blackboards, and the desks had been piled in the cloak room, and chairs moved in from the
Mary Cookâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Memories MARY COOK
United Church. We pupils were to be at the school early, with our parents arriving in time for the concert. Well, as soon as we got to school, there was trouble brewing. First of all, the mice had eaten all the popcorn balls off the Christmas tree on Friday night, so all that was left for decoration was the wisps of silver tinsel Miss Crosby brought from home each year, and the coloured paper stars each pupil made. Of course, there was no piano in the school, and so that year Miss Crosby had Three Mile Hermanâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s parents bring in their crank-up Victrola (I think the only Victrola in the entire Northcote area), and from someone else she scrounged a record of Silent Night. The record was as big as a meat platter, and since Three Mile knew how to get the music out of the Victrola, he was to make it work at the appropriate time in the concert.

THE OASIS
The appropriate time was when the Nativity Scene was coming to a close, and just before Santa was to burst through the back door. Bad Marguirite, as usual, was an angel, after she had complained loud and long that she was tired of being a sheep, and to keep peace Miss Crosby had let her wear a handmade silver halo like Velma and me, who were also angels. My sister Audrey was again the Virgin Mary, which didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t please Cora one bit. Finally, the parents were crammed into the school, the old stove was belting out the heat, and you couldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t see out the windows for the steam off bodies and the bad smell of overshoes and gum rubbers hung in the room like a cloud. The first thing that happened to put a damper on the concert was when big Emma grabbed a hold of the make-shift curtain (just a group of flour bag sheets hung on chicken wire to separate the performers from the audience) to stop herself from falling, and the entire â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;stagecurtainâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; came down like a cloud wafting from the sky. Someone got a ladder from the cloak room, and it was hammered back up and the concert was ready to begin. Miss Crosby got us through the singing
numbers, and what passed for a pantomime, and the Nativity Scene was about to begin. Someone turned down the oil lamps on cue, and Two Mile got the nod from Miss Crosby to start cranking the Victrola. Somehow, someone brought the wrong record, and we were listening to a high screechy voice belting out a song from the First World War! Two Mile Herman never missed a beat, and kept turning the handle on the side of the Victrola and we continued on with the Nativity scene as if that was the music we had rehearsed with all along, even though none of us, except Two Mile, had ever heard the record before. The concert finally came to a close, and after thunderous applause from the parents, the entire school room of 18 pupils, sat on the floor at the front to await Santa Claus, who was supposedly standing out in the cold waiting to be let in. Uncle Alec Thom got up and went to the door, and Santa, in all his glory, flew in, ringing a set of bells on a piece of rein, exactly like our horse King wore, and just about knocked Uncle Alec for a loop.

Mary amused by Santa’s actions Continued from page 31
He careened into the classroom, and immediately sat right on the knee of the first woman in the back row. She let out a war-whoop and with a mighty shove pushed him to the floor, where it took three strapping men to right him. It was obvious to everyone that Santa had been into something stronger than green tea. By this time the heat in the crowded little one-room
school house was bouncing off the walls. Uncle Alec, my father and a couple other men got ‘Santa’ into a chair at the back of the room, and within minutes he was sound asleep and snoring loud enough to waken the dead. Miss Crosby ended up handing out the Christmas presents herself, a few of the mothers passed around cookies, and the Christmas concert came to a close for another year.
ARH receives funds to expand adult day program News – Arnprior Regional Health (ARH) is receiving almost $80,000 to expand the adult day program in this area. A recent funding announcement of almost $900,000 by the Champlain Local Health Integration Network (LHIN) for day programs for seniors over the age of 65 will be shared around Eastern Ontario. ARH will receive $78,912 in addition to the existing funding of $36,652 for its adult day program. In a news release, the ARH
Someone drove ‘Santa’ home in his own cutter, and the talk around Northcote for weeks on end was about all the excitement at the school that cold winter’s night. My brother Emerson and Cecil said it was the best Christmas concert ever held at the Northcote school. Interested in an electronic version of Mary’s books?

board expressed delight with the funding, noting it fits in well with its goal of “doing the right thing, at the right time, in the right way, for the right person – and having the best possible results.” The money will help communities ensure the provision of the right care, at the right time, in the right place, it says. “This is terrific news for Arnprior. As our community ages, there is a need to make investments that will allow seniors to stay safe at home while providing short-term relief for the family caregiver.” ARH points out that both the adult day program and the Assisted Living Services Program provide care to seniors while allowing them to retain their independence. These supports also help to prevent early admission to a longterm care facility or admission to a hospital, ARH maintains.
“As the health care system continues to change, Arnprior Regional Health is well positioned to receive investments from the LHIN which improve local access to services for seniors,” said ARH board chair Jay Johnston. The funding means an increase in staffing, an increase in the number of days the program is offered and an increase to the program by adding 12 spaces for clients. “These are the type of investments that are transforming the health system and improving the lives of individuals and families,” explained Champlain LHIN CEO Chantale LeClerc. “The Champlain LHIN is working closely with our partners to expand programs and put in place new initiatives that address the needs of communities across our region. This work is well aligned to our key strategy of building a strong foundation of primary, home and community care.”
