EMC news – Hillcrest High School students received a taste of what to expect when 4,000 students from across Canada descend on the National Capi-tal Region to attend this year’s fi rst National We Day event at Gatineau’s Robert Guertin Arena on April 29.

Free the Children Founder

Craig Kielburger was at Hill-crest on April 3 to announce the offi cial lineup for National We Day, which includes ac-tor and activist Martin Sheen, Assembly of First Nations na-tional chief Shawn Atleo, Ca-nadian rapper Kardinal Offi sh-all, singer and songwriter My Name is Kay and Canadian pop-rock band Neverest among others.

The We Day celebration is

free to attend but students must earn their way in by commit-ting to have one local and one global service action.

That is exactly what Hill-crest students Caitlin Salvino, 17, and Rebecca Wong, 16 did to earn tickets that allowed them to attend the 2011 We Day event in Toronto.

“The thing that shocked me the most about We Day was the fact that in the Air Canada

Centre, there were 18,000 just-as-inspired youths ready to go back home and make this world a better place,” said Salvino.

The two girls are part of the school’s Impact Club that has spent the past two years rais-ing money towards building a school in Ecuador through Free the Children’s Adopt-A-Village program.

“After We Day, on the bus ride back to Ottawa, all I re-member is that everyone was passionately talking about the fundraisers they were going to

do when we got home and how they were going to bring back what they learned at We Day into their schools, clubs and classrooms,” said Salvino.

We Day is an initiative of Free the Children, that con-nects renowned speakers and performers with thousands of elementary and high school students and educators in an inspirational setting to learn about some of the pressing lo-cal and global issues.

Wheelchair hockey brings out the joy of game: player

Jessica [email protected]

EMC sports - It was a white-knuckle fi nish during the Ottawa Power Wheelchair Hockey League’s annual fund-raising game against a team comprised of local celebrities on April 6.

With only 46 seconds left to go in the fi nal period, Mo-ses Olong with the OPWHL Sharks tied the game with the Celebrities 5-5, while earning himself a hat trick.

But the Celebrities took the game in a double shootout, winning 6-5, thanks to Todd Nicholson, a three-time medal winning Canadian Paralympic Sledge hockey player.

“We’re looking to have a lot of fun and give the crowd a good game,” said OPWHL coach Andrew Paterson, a res-

ident of Nepean. “I think they all played really well. It was a good challenge.”

OPWHL players are split into two sectors: the competi-tive tournament team, the Ot-tawa Capitals, and two recre-ational teams, the Gators and Sharks. All three teams played one period during the celeb-rity game.

Nine-year-old Isabella Si-coli has only been playing for four months but the Bells Corners resident said she’s hooked on the sport.

“I like the fun,” she said. “I like that it’s all about fun; it’s not about winning, it’s about all the joy and fun you can have in hockey.”

Sicoli plays forward for the Gators, after being traded from the Sharks last week.

EMC news - The Strandherd Arm-strong bridge will come in on bud-get, but it likely won’t be on time, said Gloucester-South Nepean Coun. Steve Desroches.

The $48-million project was de-layed when the original contractor went into receivership last March.

Work has also been delayed be-cause the welding didn’t meet city specifi cations.

“There are really stringent tests, us-ing things like ultrasound,” Desroches said, adding engineers have told him it’s not uncommon for the welding to be done, tested and redone.

The bridge over the Rideau River – between Strandherd Drive and Earl Armstrong Road – and each of the three bridge arches is composed of 10 pieces that must be welded together.

“We won’t sacrifi ce residents’ safe-

ty for a photo op,” Desroches said, adding residents would be apprised of the new completion date sometime this month.

The original completion deadline was Aug. 31. With the delays it could be months later.

The city holds a $23-million per-formance bond on the project and any penalties would be the responsibility of the bonding company. Delays will cost the bonding company $5,000 per day.

Desroches said the city is putting pressure on the contractor to fi nish the work because the bridge is central to the city’s transportation master plan.

“Light-rail construction could be delayed if there aren’t the proper de-tours in place,” he said.

Despite the ticking clock, there were still be a delay.

“It’s unlikely we will be able to make up the time by cutting other ar-eas,” Desroches said.

Gloucester South Nepean Coun. Steve Desroches said residents will have wait until later this month to learn when the Strandherd-Armstrong Bridge will be completed.

Students shine at Ottawa Regional Science Fair

Jessica [email protected]

EMC news - More than 325 students from all over the city took part in the Ottawa Regional Science Fair on Saturday, April 6, at Carleton University.

With more than 200 proj-ects representing more than 40 schools, the judges had their work cut out for them.

“The quality is pretty im-pressive,” said committee co-chair Jovan Groen. “We’ve got a great fair this year.”

Students in grades 7 to 12 competed in the fi elds of sci-ence and engineering in ju-nior, intermediate, senior, and special awards categories. The 2013 edition marked the 52nd year of the science fair.

“They’re excited to share here,” said Groen.

Grade 7 students Emma Jones, 13, and Tanya Nguyen, 12, from Ashbury College in east Ottawa did a project on the cleanliness of their school by examining various sur-faces.

“We wanted to see if our school was a safe environ-

ment,” said Emma. “We found that we didn’t

have a lot of dangerous bacte-ria but we did have mould on our desks,” added Tanya.

The solution was to wipe down the desks more often.

Grade 11 students Alexa Rious, 17, and Makayla Rop-er, 16, from All Saints Catho-lic High School in Kanata, wanted to develop a water fi lter that could be made from resources found in Third World countries.

The result was a multiple-layer fi lter comprised of cloth, gravel, sand, charcoal,

cat grass and corn husks.“They can easily make

good fi lter and purifi cation systems,” said Alexa, adding the judges were impressed the entry.

Manotick’s Nasib Al Karmi, a Grade 7 student at Abraar School in Bayshore, made a vehicle that cleans snow off solar panels.

He noticed that his neigh-bour had to clear the snow off his solar panels with a rake during the winter months.

“I found out through my research just an inch of snow can shut down the whole sys-

tem,” said Nasib. He found glass that could

protect the panels so the ve-hicle wouldn’t damage them.

“The glass does not affect the effi ciency,” he said, add-ing the weight of the vehicle would determine what kind of glass would be used.

Amar Abdisamed, a Grade 8 student at Ottawa Islamic School in west Ottawa, cre-ated a project on how to cure cancer with nanotechnology.

The Sandy Hill resident lost his grandfather to brain cancer and his uncle to lung cancer.

“I wanted to use my edu-cation (to) fi nd a cure,” said Amar. “(Nanotechnology) can help any stage of cancer be-cause it completely destroys the tumour” without affecting the healthy cells surrounding the diseased area.

CANADA WIDE SCIENCE FAIR

Eleven projects were se-lected to compete in the Can-ada Wide Science Fair from May 11 to 18 in Lethbridge, Alta.:

• Nicholas Chodura, from

Turnbull School, with his project 175,000 tons: Can it just disappear?

• Catherine Beaudin, from Franco-Ouest French Catho-lic high school with her proj-ect High Effi ciency Solar Thermal Collector.

• Danilla Xing, from Bishop Hamilton Montessori School, with her project Lace It Up.

• Ishaan Dhillon, from Bishop Hamilton Montessori School, with Age of the Phage 2.0.

• Tahir Shamji, from Turn-bull School, with How Strong are your Clothes?

• Arianna Skirzynska and Samantha Bulchand, from All Saints Catholic High School, with their project Zombie Cells; Fact or Fiction.

• Amit Scheer, from Colo-nel By Secondary School, with Overproduction of Reac-tive Oxygen Species in Mito-chondria: A Principal Cause of Cancer.

• Brian Laight, from All Saints Catholic High School, with his project A Sindbis Vi-rus short-hairpin RNA Screen to Increase Virus Replication in Cancer Cells.

• Adamo Young, from Lis-gar Collegiate Institute, with Emerging Fusarium chemo-types: Threats to Crop Pro-duction.

Eleven will compete in Canada-wide contest


Grade 7 student Hawa Ali-Rage from Ottawa Islamic School shows off her project on which citrus fruit has the most vitamin C. Hawa, who lives in Billings Bridge, tested oranges, lemons, tangerines, grapefruits and clementines. Hawa discovered that tangerines have the most vitamin C.

Wong and Salvino with eight other students are hoping to raise $8,500 to reach their goal of building a school in Ecuador.

“We’ve been able to raise aware-ness in our school about the issues faced by millions of children around the world,” said Wong.

Donna Frame, one of the teachers supervising the project, said the We Day line-up launch at Hillcrest is a testament to the great things Hillcrest students are doing.

“This is an incredible chance to celebrate all of the work, which Hill-crest has done in terms of getting the students engaged around social jus-tice and environmental issues,” said Frame.

“This is a great day to spread the enthusiasm and the passion for the up-coming We Day.”

She said for the past fi ve years, the school community has worked hard to make the school a positive place where students can see themselves represented.

“There is a strong sense of pride about the idea that this is spreading and for the students feeling that they are part of this growing movement,” said Frame.

We hope the We Day in Ottawa will bring that passion and enthusiasm to more schools, clubs, and make them feel like positive contributors to the community.”

Her comments were echoed by the school trustee Bronwyn Funiciello, who said that the leadership demon-strated by Hillcrest students through their activities in the local and global community has been amazing.

“For me it gives me some really sense of comfort that our future is in good hands,” said Funiciello.

IMPACT OF WE DAY

For the past fi ve years, youth have raised $26 million for 900 local and global causes, said Free the Children’s Kielburger.

“We Day for us, is the answer for the questions we hear so often - And the question we hear is…I am only one person, what difference can I make?”

said Kielburger.“When you walk into a stadium at

the end of this month with 4,000 other students who have earned their way to be there … you know you’re not alone.”

Keilburger, 30, so far the youngest recipient of the Order of Canada and the author of nine books, said students across Canada have volunteered 5.1 million hours.

“The most amazing stat about We Day is our alumni. Seventy-nine per cent vote year after year in federal elections. It shows youth are inspired when they’re given issues to care about,’ he said.

Thirty-four schools from the Ottawa area participated in Free the Children’s We Scare Hunger campaign last year, collecting food for local food banks.

THE FULL LINEUP INCLUDES:

• Martin Sheen – Emmy and Gold-en Globe-winning actor and activist

• Chief Shawn Atleo - national chief of the Assembly of First Nations

• Kardinal Offi shall - Canadian rap-per and record producer

• Karl Wolf - international record-ing artist, Socan & MTV Europe Mu-sic Award winner

• Shawn Desman - Platinum-sell-ing, JUNO and MMVA Award-win-ning recording artist

• Cast members from the television show Degrassi

• My Name is Kay - Canadian singer and songwriter

• A performance by ONE DROP, a Cirque du Soleil Founder’s initiative

• Frank O’Dea - Second Cup founder, Canadian entrepreneur, hu-manitarian and author

• Neverest - Canadian pop-rock band

• Jillian Vanstone - principal danc-er at the National Ballet of Canada

• Rob Stewart - award winning fi lmmaker of Sharkwater and Revolu-tion

• Tyler Shaw - 2012 Coca-Cola MuchMusic Video Award winner

• Molly Burke - Visually impaired Me to We motivational speaker

Street Sweepers

The City of Ottawa has commenced city wide street sweeping operations and city crews will be working around the clock to remove debris and materials that have accumulated over the winter. Sweeping operations will include daytime and nighttime work and will cause some noise and dust. The City is working as quickly as possible to reduce the impact and appreciates residents’ patience during this time.

For more information about street cleaning schedules and operations please visit Ottawa.ca or call 3-1-1.

Leaf and Yard Waste

Residents are reminded that leaf and yard waste is collected weekly. Leaf and grass clippings should be placed in compostable paper bags, their own garbage can, or cardboard boxes for pick up. Alternatively you may choose to put these items in your green bin. Tree branches must be bundled when placed out for collection.

To avoid pick up problems make sure that your yard waste is clearly identifiable and separate from your regular recycling and garbage. For more information please visit Ottawa.ca or call 3-1-1.

My Annual Fifty-Five Plus Afternoon Tea

It’s the time of year again where I start to get ready for my annual Fifty-Five Plus Afternoon Tea! Every year, I host a tea in June to celebrate the contributions of residents 55 years and older in our community. If you are a resident and would like to be added to this year’s invitation list or if your contact information has changed, please contact my office at 613-580-2480 or [email protected]. Please note that due to the popularity of this event, seating is limited.

Springing Forward

The City of Ottawa has begun its spring-cleaning operations. Over the next several weeks City crews will be out repairing, cleaning and maintaining Ottawa’s paved roads, sidewalks and parkland. The Spring Clean-up Program includes grading of gravel roads and shoulders, asphalt patching, cleaning up litter and winter debris, park maintenance, graffiti removal, and tree planting and maintenance.

City crews will also be repairing damage to lawns and other plantings due to snow clearing. If your lawn was damaged by a city plow please call 3-1-1 and register your concerns. Repairs will be done in May and June and include putting down top soil and grass seed where required.

“First I was nervous because I wasn’t that good at being a forward,” said Sicoli. “But then I started to believe and now I’m like a pro.”

It was 19-year-old Chris Pa-vone’s third game. The Algon-quin College marketing student, who lives in Barrhaven, said he’d played baseball before but never hockey. After learning about the OPWHL from friends, he gave it a shot.

“It’s just something fun, it’s something new,” said Pavone, who plays for the Sharks.

Dino Giannetti, a resident of Katimavik, and Hollis Peirce, from the downtown Bank Street area, helped create the Ottawa league, which has grown to 25 players in four years.

Peirce got the idea to create the OPWHL after moving from Calgary, where he played hock-ey in a wheelchair league since he was 11 years old.

“We fi nally got enough mo-mentum going,” said the now 25-year-old Peirce about get-ting the league on the court. “It allows any type of ability to play against each other. It really evens the playing fi eld.”

Peirce plays defence for the

Ottawa Capitals and the Sharks. The league is open to people

of all ages and abilities, with players as young as eight and older than 60.

“That’s the great thing about wheelchair hockey; it doesn’t matter your age. Anyone can play,” said Peirce, adding it’s a social event as much as a hockey game.

“It’s great, the success we’ve had,” added Giannetti, 25, who plays goalie and defence for the Sharks and Ottawa Capitals.

WORKOUT

Aside from Olong, Roddey Hard scored two goals for the OPWHL.

Celebrities Tyson Hinz and Justin Shaver, both Carleton Ra-vens basketball players, morn-ing show host Jeff Hopper, Ot-tawa 67’s goalie Jacob Blair and Nicholson, scored for their team.

The celebrities took to the court in manual wheelchairs, so controlling the ball and the chair at the same time was diffi cult, said Shaver, who is studying psychology and social work at Carleton.

Many of the celebrity play-ers used their feet to propel the

wheelchairs so they could ma-neuver the chair and hockey stick at the same time.

“It’s a workout,” said Hinz, a commerce student at the univer-sity. “Hopefully we’ll be asked back (next year).”

The game was held in the Norm Fenn Gym on the Carleton University campus – where the OPWHL hosts training every Sunday – as a fundraiser for

the upcoming Canadian Power Hockey Championships this August in London, Ont. It costs around $11,000 for the travelling team to participate, said Peirce.

The OPWHL was established by Carleton University students in 2009 for players who use wheelchairs and have limited upper body strength or mobility.

With fi les from Eddie Rwema

Wheelchair league grows to 25 players

OPINIONOPINION Connected to your community

In Ottawa, even the good news is some-what mysterious. Take, for example, the word that the city is looking for submis-sions from engineering consultants on

ways to improve Queen Street, so that it will be nice to walk along in a few years when light rail is running underneath it.

The mysterious part: how could anyone think that Queen Street can be improved in any way other than blowing it up and starting over again?

The Citizen article on the Queen Street study contained the usual allusions to plant-ing more trees and widening sidewalks and adding benches, but hey. There’s no retail on Queen Street, hardly a restaurant and lots of ugly glass buildings. You think wider side-walks is going to help much?

Two years ago, on a Saturday afternoon in April, Tyler Brûlé, the former Ottawan turned London magazine tycoon, was wandering around downtown. Here’s his description, in the Financial Times, of what he saw:

“The street was littered with soggy bits of rubbish; some shops were out of business; almost every offi ce tower had a lease sign in the lobby window and it was eerily deserted. I walked a few blocks hoping the urban landscape would improve but the few retail

outlets that were open felt tatty and tired, the streets were buckling and full of potholes and every other block was punctuated by a vacant property, an empty parking lot and restaurant closed for business, permanently.”

Not a bad description and it obviously made an impression, because Brûlé was invit-ed back to Ottawa, where he spent two years in the ‘80s going to Nepean High School, to give a public talk as part of an ideas project to improve the city.

For reasons understandable to those who deal with famous people, the deal fell through and the organizers are now looking for another expert. “The vision of bringing someone to give us some advice is still on the table,” Coun. Mathieu Fleury told the Citizen. “We want to bring someone with that kind of

profi le.”As the old saying goes, an expert is some-

one from out of town. Too many cities get their reputation from the guy who spends two days there and writes an analysis based on the airport, the personality of the taxi driver who brings him from the airport, the hotel, two restaurants near the hotel, the street the hotel is on and the taxi driver who takes him back to the airport.

A guy who walked around the Glebe or the Market, rather than Queen Street, would have a different assessment of Ottawa. A guy who stayed in Ottawa South or Kanata would think differently from a guy who stayed at the Westin.

Which is not to say that Queen Street is not awful. It is. It’s just that we don’t need to pay someone to tell us that. Many of the problems that plague our city are obvious to anyone who lives here and don’t require expert advice.

If you want a vibrant Queen Street, put some stores on it. For those stores to thrive they need customers, people who live down-town. That means apartment buildings instead of offi ce buildings. People have known this for decades, people who are not from out of town.

Persuading business and government to do anything about it is, and always has been, the problem. It costs money.

As time passes without anything being done people learn to live without downtown. They have their neighbourhood stores and restaurants, if they are lucky enough to have that kind of neighbourhood. If not, they have the nearest mall, where there are stores and the parking is free and easy to fi nd. If Queen Street is awful, it ceases to matter to a lot of folks.

And that makes it harder to fi nd the will to fi x it. Maybe this time will be different.

Fixing Queen Street, and other Ottawa fantasies

Asking a lot of children

COLUMN

Students at a school in Barrhaven will launch a hiring guide for local businesses this week.

The Grade 4 students put a lot of work into their product, meeting with more than 30 local business managers to fi nd out what hiring tools they currently use.

The kids have since compiled a hiring guide, which will soon be for sale, with proceeds to Big Brothers, Big Sisters.

The goal was to develop something that would help people in the community and the hiring guide could help connect job-seekers with prospective employers.

The project was developed with help from the Learning Partnership, a national non-profi t organi-zation that promotes the public education system in Canada.

The organization is participating in similar proj-ects at 240 schools.

By working on the guide, students got a taste of teamwork and the value of all the steps in the busi-ness process, say organizers.

Encouraging entrepreneurial spirit in youngsters is a good idea, but it’s also reasonable to ask if maybe we’re expecting our kids to grow up a little

too soon. There will be time to learn marketing and

project management in high school or at college or university, all before those skills can ever be honed in the real world.

Grade 4 is too early for students to choose a future educational goal or career. It’s not clear what skills a nine or 10-year-old might develop today that will be of value when they enter the workforce.

Sampling many careers might be a better use of the kids’ time than carrying out one intensive project.

Parents of any kids involved in the Learning Partnership programs should share their thoughts with teachers, principals and school board trustees. It would be interesting to know if the parents think their kids’ time was well spent, especially if there was follow-up years later to see if a Grade 4 student went on to bigger things and was inspired or prepared in part by the Learning Partnership program.

Without that information over the long term, it’s impossible to say if learning business skills at a young age is the right course or if kids should just be kids for a little longer.

EDITORIAL

I’ve written a lot about the overweight and obesity epidemic

that’s plaguing us. But I’ll admit, even as I touted the importance of engaging with nature, getting more daily exer-cise, and eating a healthy diet, I was tipping my own scale. By two pounds, I am now offi cially overweight – again.

While post-baby fat and lack of a good night’s sleep has made me somewhat self-forgiving, I’ve decided to put my money where my mouth is (although maybe putting things in my mouth isn’t really the answer).

But here it is: I have vowed to lose 20 pounds by autumn. The problem is gaining weight is much easier than losing it. Assuming all calories are created equal – which they’re not – one pound of body fat is equivalent to approximately 3,500 calories. To put it in perspective, if you ate a Quiznos brownie every day, you’d gain a pound a week.

If you have been eating Quiznos brownies every day at and you stop, you may lose a pound. Sounds easy, right?

Not exactly. The thing is you have to maintain your calorie defi cit over time, which means it’s not just a matter of what you eat, but also what you do.

Saying that, I defi nitely think the fi rst few pounds can be shed by eliminating a couple of staple foods from my diet: coffee and wine.

I realized I can cut about 600 calories, on average, per day, just by giving up the tall boys I drink each morning for creative inspira-tion. I don’t like black coffee – I’m more of a double-double kind of gal. I worked it out that I’m taking

in about 500 calories per day be-tween the sugar and cream in my coffee. Easy fi x.

The second one is a little harder – wine. I have spent this long winter pretending to be an amateur connoisseur of red wine. Unfortunately, alcohol has effect of slowing your metabolism until it clears your system. How sad is that? And there are three other distinct problems with my winter posing as a sommelier: there is a fi ne line between connoisseur and alcoholic; a glass of red wine contains about 85 calories (and that’s a small glass – ahem); and the fact that I really know very little about wine was discovered when I failed to pronounce Syrah at a recent meeting of the minds and that I had no idea that Shiraz and Syrah were the same thing. So besides the calorie defi cit of, on average, up to 150 per day, losing wine will help me regain my reputation as an intelligent dinner guest.

At the end of the day, losing weight will come down to the amount of exercise I can squeeze in between my hours of writing. Despite all my blather earlier this year, I’ve decided to forgo trendy exercises and take up walking.

It sounds crazy, right? How many pounds can you shed by putting one foot in front of the other? But I’ve had a lot of success with walking in the past. For one, it’s totally manage-able. The biggest hurdle, really, is getting my shoes on and getting out without making excuses. When I do get out, I tend to walk really fast – almost at a jogging pace. It’s not as effi cient as running, so you have to do more of it. But 60 minutes of brisk walking per day should help me burn about 200 calories. Strap a 20-pound baby to my front and maybe I’ll get an extra 35 calories out of the deal.

Doing the math, the dietary changes plus the exercise equates to subtracting about 5,900 calories per week. I could lose 50 pounds per year! Not too shabby, huh?

Of course, once the wine and cof-fee are out of my system, I may have to consider giving up bread and but-ter ... and maybe cheese, or taking up Zumba. But that’s another topic.

EMC News – Faith has led a former player with the Capital City FC to West Virginia where he will hit the pitch this season for the King’s Warriors, a Christian soccer club.

Odaine Demar fi nished the previous season with Kingston FC after playing a handful of games for Gamla Upsala Sportklubb, a second division professional soccer team in Sweden.

He was forced to return to Canada after he was unable to obtain a work visa in Sweden.

Upon fi nishing the season with Kingston, he prepared for a return to Europe, where he had several opportunities including in Sweden, by training with the West Ottawa Soccer Club.

But Demar chose to forego his opportunities in Europe and return to North America after re-ceiving an e-mail from the King’s Warriors.

“They seemed like my best option because of what they offered me both as a player and spiritually,” said Demar, who had originally contacted the Warriors after feeling he was ne-glecting his faith while playing professionally in Sweden.

“I had a lot of time to think back on my year and I felt my faith was weakening which led to me doing some research on the Warriors,” he said.

The King’s Warriors are located in Southern West Virginia and compete in the United Soc-cer League’s Premier Development League, a league that includes the Ottawa Fury.

“There are some very good players in the league … but I know what I am capable of when I work hard, so if I assert my self imme-

diately I will have a good season” he said.Although Demar will be able to develop his

talent with the West Virginian team, it was their religious work that made them appealing, he said.

“We try to win all the games that we can, but get out into the community to give the good news of Jesus Christ,” said Tim Donelli, who works media relations for the Warriors. He said about 90 per cent of their players are Christian.

The players, who study the Bible and pray together, often speak in churches and help out in the community.

The club works in tandem with Countryside Baptist Church in Forest Hill, West Virginia.

A big focus is on serving and helping others in the community, said Donelli.

“I feel this teaches us that the main focus is not on winning games but giving back, help-ing others and improving as men of God,” said Demar.

“It’s a blessing,” he said, “I was born into the church. I still have very

fond memories of going to church every Sun-day as a little kid in Jamaica with my grand-mother.

“Being a pro athlete and staying religious is very challenging but fi nding a place where I can focus on both makes playing the game even more enjoyable,” he said.

Demar said he will continue to work until he is given a chance at playing for Canada’s na-tional team and plans to return to Europe after the completion of this season.

“I hope to continue playing and having an impact on and off the fi eld for a very long time,” he said.

EMC news – The Heron Park Community Association is holding a quiz night to help raise funds to sup-port their quest for a new community centre.

The event will be held at O’Brien’s Pub starting at 7 p.m., on April 14.

“We don’t have a community cen-tre as such. We just have a fi eld house in Heron Park that is very small and limited in its use,” said James McLar-en, president of the association.

The association has challenged other community associations in Capital Ward and Coun. David Cher-nushenko’s offi ce to bring teams to compete against them.

“It is extremely generous of the other community associations to par-ticipate as well as extremely sporting to go up against our own skilled con-tingent,” said James.

Teams of three to six people will compete in a trivia competition for prizes and, more importantly, brag-ging rights as the Trivia Masters of Heron Park.

Chernushenko’s said he has al-ready entered his team and will be competing and supporting the cause.

The association recently created a charitable organization to raise funds for the centre, so that people can make donations and receive tax

receipts.“We need a better facility in the

area. Many distant suburban areas have a lot better quality community amenities than we do and we feel that the city should be stepping up and provide those services to our neigh-bourhood as well,” said McLaren.

In fall 2011, Heron Park resi-dents began working with a group of Carleton University architecture students to do a demographic study of residents in the area and discuss with them their needs and wishes for a renovated centre.

Originally, the centre was built to serve as changing rooms for baseball teams, according to the Heron Park Community Association website.

The needs of the surrounding communities have since outgrown that simple purpose.

Currently, the centre is shared be-tween the city and residents to run different programs.

“We are getting more interest from groups in the area to have local space that they can rent for regular use,” said McLaren.

Lack of funding is certainly an ob-stacle, but McLaren hopes they can raise enough money to make the city consider replacing the existing build-ing instead of renovating it.

“The design of the building is probably not practical to have it im-proved,” he said.

“It would be less expensive to just start over.”

He added that the kind of facility that they are hoping for would cost somewhere around the neighbour-hood of $1.5 to 2 million.

“We as community don’t need to raise that much money, what we need to do is to show that we are ready to make a commitment, show-ing that we are serious about it,” said McLaren.

While there is a sense of optimism within the community, McLaren said people are a little skeptical about the city stepping up at the moment and are looking for some evidence that the city is going to be involved.

Chernushenko said the project has been identifi ed as one of the priori-ties in need of funding in his ward, but admitted it is very hard to move a long.

“It is quite a high priority but ev-erybody wants one. The project is currently down near the bottom of the list in terms of city infrastructure projects,” said Chernushenko.

He was also of the view that the current facility is not something worth putting another penny into, and supports having a new centre at the site.

“The lack of a true gathering space for programs to be run, in a way holds back the community spirit and participation,” he said.

“If there is no where central to go, it is hard to get a lot of people to things.”

Tickets are $15 each and are avail-able by emailing [email protected] or by calling James McLaren at 613 526-2680.

Heron Park quiz night to raise money for community centre


Heron Park residents say they think this little brick building at 1560 Clover St., has outlived its usefulness and they are looking forward to building a much larger community centre.

City Maintains “Triple A” Credit Rating

I am pleased to advise residents that Moody’s Investors Services, an

internationally recognized credit rating agency, has once again confirmed a

“AAA” credit rating and stable outlook for the City of Ottawa. This rating is a

significant benefit as it helps the City to obtain the lowest possible interest

rates.

Moody’s bases its rating on the City’s history of prudent financial

management, low debt burden, strong reserve position and stable economic

base. Moody’s also indicates that the rating takes into consideration the

strong fiscal outcomes over the past several years, reflecting fiscal discipline

and a commitment to long-range financial planning.

Rain Barrel Sale

The Canadian Guide Dogs for the Blind and the Rideau Valley Conservation

EMC news – Fielding Drive Public School is hoping the community can come together to help them secure the funding for a new play structure after the old one was torn down last summer.

The school council took their quest to the Riverside Park Community Association on April 3, to seek association support to ac-company their city grant application.

“It is suggested that when you apply for a city grant, you need to have a letter of sup-port from the community association,” Ann Marie Thompson said after presenting the school’s proposal to the association board meeting.

The old structure was condemned and taken down after it was deemed unsafe.

“It was a wooden structure, and there were some nails showing through. That is when the school decided it was time to tear it down,” said Thompson.

“There has been no structure this year.”Thompson said the play structure was

well used by children in the community and hopes a new one would be a good addition.

David Hutchinson, president of the asso-ciation, agreed the structure was good for the community.

“Everyone is in agreement, that it is a good thing for our community,” said Hutchinson.

John Kruithof, another member of the board, said he fully supported the project.

Thompson said the school council has been working hard and has achieved what they need to get a city matching grant of $7,500.

“There has also been some funds from the school. They have a fair bit of money put aside, earmarked specifi cally for this struc-ture and the ground preparation necessary for a safe structure,” said Thompson.

She said she was hopeful the city will come through with money and even if it doesn’t they would still proceed with proj-ect.

“The play structure was often a meeting place for many kids,” said Thompson.

“A play structure would defi nitely be an

asset to their fi tness and promote healthy ac-tive living.”

If everything goes as planned, Thompson said it would be ideal to start ground prepa-ration in June.

Roughly, the new structure would cost between $45,000 to 50,000.

EMC news - The future of horse racing at the Rideau Carleton Race-way is left in limbo after the Slots-At-Racetracks program was cancelled.

The program offi cially ended on March 31, letting a torrent of fear and uncertainty ripple through the lo-cal industry.

It is a tragedy for the people that depend on the program, said Nation-al Capital Region Harness Horse As-sociation (NCRHHA) president John MacMillan.

“Horse people have essentially been left out in the cold,” he said.

The Rideau Carleton Raceway has already cut its programming from three race days a week to two, he added.

Since its inception in 1998, the Slots-At-Racetracks program has been helping sustain the industry by providing about $3.7 billion in slot revenue. The deal allowed horse people to directly take home 10 per cent of the money, said veteran har-ness racer and veterinarian Roly Ar-mitage.

“Due to the fact that they brought the horsemen into it, everybody brought better horses into it, put more money into it and everything else, including myself,” said the former mayor of the West Carleton township.

There are several horse ranches and horse-related businesses in West Carleton.

After Finance Minister Dwight Duncan announced the province’s decision to cut funding last year, sev-eral horse people have found them-selves in a dilemma.

Many of them have stopped breed-ing their mares and several are get-ting out of the business altogether.

“It’s not possible to sustain your-self in this industry as a horse trainer under the current model no matter how successful you are,” said Mac-Millan.

Despite cutting the program, the Ontario Lottery and Gaming Corpo-ration (OLG) and the Ontario gov-ernment are working to fi nd a solu-tion that will help foster high quality racing, according to OLG spokesman Rui Brum. He said it is committed to creating a sustainable racing industry that is fair to all stakeholders.

To accomplish this, the Transition of Ontario Horse Racing Industry panel was created. It looks at opportunities to help modernization and maintain sustainability within the industry. The panel has created a report with recom-mendations that will help the industry transition into a sustainable model.

NO CONSULTATIONS

MacMillan, however, said that his association has never been ap-proached to discuss such changes.

“The government has not even spoken to horse people about this process, not at all,” said MacMillan. “We have routinely called them and they haven’t returned our calls.”

There hasn’t been much public consultation for the location of the permanent casino either, he added. He is currently collecting data from concerned citizen on the Casino

Choice Ottawa Facebook page. He plans to bring the results to Mayor Jim Watson and his councilors.

“We have to be concerned as horse people about the racetrack being op-erational and afl oat or else we have no place to race in addition to wor-rying about how much purse money we are going to race for,” said Mac-Millan.

The OLG will continue to have a lease agreement in place with the Rideau Carleton Raceway. It will now follow a model that more resem-bles the renter-landlord agreement, said Brum.

The municipality will continue to get funds from OLG, assured Brum.

“We are working on different agreements for that,” he said.

JOB LOSSES IMMINENT

The horse racing industry employs about 60,000 people in Ontario. Out of that 40,000 are employed full-time while 20,000 are part-time workers. Many of them are at risk of losing their jobs with this decision.

“They (the government) are al-ways talking about making jobs, but why take away jobs,” said Armitage.

It may also create a ripple effect through congruent industries.

“It’s not just the horses. We all use trailers, we buy trucks, we buy har-nesses, we buy hay,” he added. “It’s an industry.”

Despite the apprehension, horse people have rallied to fi ght the deci-sion. They lobbied, wrote to the gov-ernment and approached their MPPs.

As such, the Ontario government has tentatively made strides towards creating a sustainable funding model with Western Fair, Clinton, Wood-bine, Mohawk, Hanover and Grand River race tracks.

The Rideau Carleton Raceway is not currently part of this, but is dis-cussing alternative possibilities with the OLG, said MacMillan.

“Given that the slots are still at the raceway, Rideau Carleton is trying to negotiate a deal to keep them there,” he said. “Something similar to the pro-gram, tweak it, make adjustments to it.

“We are fi ne with that,” he added. “We are fi ne if they want to introduce new forms of gambling and give us a percentage of that. We need some sort of profi t sharing from the slot machines.”

CELEBRATING VOLUNTEERSVolunteers are an integral part of the

Children’s Aid Society of Ottawa’s (CASO) work, generously donating approximately 30,000 hours of their time each year. Volunteer tasks are varied and flexible, matching interests and skills with volunteer positions and working with people’s busy schedules.

While some of CASO’s volunteer opportunities require a moderate time commitment, Special Assignments allow for more flexibility. Special Assignment include: organizing, knitting and crafts, providing entertainment, or acting as photographers at events.

Volunteer Drivers support the children and youth in care by providing a safe non-judgmental space where they can comfortably sit in silence or speak with an attentive listener. Child Access Volunteers similarly help to provide a safe space by supervising visits between parents and children.

Pre-School Volunteers and Tutor/Mentors provide more formalized guidance. Pre-School Volunteers assist professional staff, guiding children from three months to five years through a variety of weekly programs. Tutors/Mentors, under the supervision of the case worker, help school-aged children with subjects like Math, English and Science, encouraging students to develop their interests and build educational goals.

Volunteering with CASO is a learning opportunity for the volunteers themselves as they undergo training, work collaboratively with fellow volunteer and staff and develop relationships with foster parents and the families we serve.

The scope of our volunteers’ work is extensive. And their commitment and generosity to the community is humbling. Here at CASO, we recognize the importance of our volunteers every day. They are the building blocks upon which our foundation, and in fact, our community, rests. April 21 to 27, 2013 is National Volunteer Week, an opportunity for us to take stock of the time that volunteers across the country donate daily. We would like to take this opportunity to formally thank our volunteers for their tireless work. We want to celebrate their generosity and commitment. Their contribution to supporting children and youth in care, and the Ottawa community more broadly, makes a difference every day and every hour.

EMC news – Ottawa’s pro-fessional basketball team has a new name.

After receiving complaints the original choice, the Toma-Hawks, was culturally insensi-tive, the club retracted the name and went back to the drawing board.

Team staff announced last week the new franchise will be named the Ottawa SkyHawks, and will keep the hawks logo used in the original branding.

“We wanted to instill a very important value, respect,” said Bytown Sports and Entertain-ment president Gus Takkale, who is from Orléans.

“It’s with that value that we want to move forward.”

On hand for the announce-ment two Aboriginal chiefs, Chief Kirby Whiteduck of the Algonquins of Pikwakanagan and Chief Gilbert Whiteduck of the Kitigan Zibi.

“We believe they really heard the message of the people,” said Chief Gilbert Whiteduck.

After the announcement, Chief Kirby Whiteduck said he supported the new moniker, but wasn’t opposed to the original

TomaHawks name. The SkyHawks brand still

has to go through the trade-marking process, which can

take six to eight months.Takkale said the name

change is good because it has a similar look and feel, and the team can still use the hawk ele-ment.

The organization reached out to fans on social media to see what they supported be-fore announcing the new team name.

Now that the team has a name, they can move forward to hire a head coach by the start of the summer, and then move into recruiting players.

Takkale said that the team will look to local talent fi rst, and try and attract other Na-tional Capital players in the United States to play.

“We want to see how we can get these players to come back home,” he said.

The fi nal roster will be an-nounced in October, with the National Basketball League games starting on November 2013.

There are three other Ontario teams in the NBL, the Oshawa Power, Windsor Express and London Lightning.

Vegetable tacos make for a great meal or snack

EMC lifestyle - Tacos make a quick meal or great snacks.

In this recipe, grated veg-etables replace the beef so it is a great way to increase veg-etable consumption for your family. However, if desired, add beef as directed in the variation for taco salad. Prepa-ration time: 15 minutes. Cook-ing time: eight minutes.

INGREDIENTS

• 25 ml (2 tbsp) olive oil• 1 medium onion, fi nely chopped• 1 large carrot, peeled and grated• 1 medium zucchini, grat-ed• 500 g (1 lb) sliced mush-rooms• 35g (1.25 oz) envelope re-duced salt taco seasoning mix• 50 ml (1/4 cup) water

• 12 taco shells, warmed• 4 romaine or iceberg let-tuce leaves, thinly sliced • Some fi nely diced tomato, for garnish (optional)

DIRECTIONS

Heat the oil in a large non-stick frying pan over medium-high heat. Add the onion and mushrooms. Cook and stir for three to four minutes or until lightly browned. Add the car-rot, zucchini, taco seasoning mix and water, cook and stir to mix well. Lower heat to medium, then cover \and cook about four minutes or until vegetables are tender.

Uncover and bring to boil until juices evaporate. To serve, place about 50 ml (1/4 cup) fi lling in each taco shell and top with lettuce and tomato if desired. The tacos can also be served with guacamole.

Makes 12 tacos.Tips: To save time, buy pre-

sliced mushrooms and grate the carrot and zucchini in a food processor. To warm taco shells, separate and place the shells onto a baking tray and heat in 350 F (180 C) for 10 minutes or until hot.

Variation: taco salad. Reduce oil to 15 ml (1

tbsp); add 250 g (1/2 lb) lean ground beef with onion and cook, stirring often until beef is browned.

Then add the mushrooms, carrot and zucchini and con-tinue as directed above. Serve hot mixture over salad greens and top with sour cream and chopped green onions. Garnish plate with tomato wedges and taco chips. For more delicious recipe ideas visit Mushrooms Canada at mushrooms.ca.

EMC sports - With the re-turn of Carleton Ravens Foot-ball this fall, the university is introducing a junior football coaching program to provide Ottawa youth with an oppor-tunity to receive coaching and guidance from some of the best athletes and coaches in the country.

The Junior Ravens Foot-ball program targets children ages eight to14.

“Junior Ravens Football provides a memorable and character-building experi-ence,” stated a release from Carleton University.

“One of the greatest ben-

efi ts for your child will be the opportunity to develop their football skills on and off the fi eld.”

The reborn football pro-gram is made possible primar-ily by the fi nancial support of Carleton graduates, led by a donation of more than $2.5 million from Ottawa entre-preneur John Ruddy.

A total of $5 million has been raised and these found-ing pledges will be supple-mented by operating revenues from sponsorship proceeds, gate receipts and ongoing fundraising activities to en-sure the program fl ourishes.

The junior’s program is an eight-week course that will introduce children to the fun-damentals that are essential to their success in the game of football and in life. “through a gradual implementation of technical and tactical skills, your child will constantly be assessed and educated in the

technical competencies in-volved in playing football.”

“Junior Ravens Football will not only teach how to play the game of football, but how to play the game safely.”

Cost of registration is $275

plus HST. Registration is open until Dec. 31.

Camp is held on Friday evenings, Saturday and Sun-day mornings from April 19 to June 16, at Keith Harris Field on Carleton University Campus.

EMC news - Carleton University has launched a new website to take fundraising to the next level.

“Its fundraising for a social me-dia world,” said Ryan Davies, of Carleton’s department of university advancement. “We built the website to refl ect the world we live in”

The site, futurefunder.ca, launched in mid-February and of-fers multiple opportunities to do-nate money to projects and initia-tives at Carleton. Davies said the focus is on advancing teaching and learning at the university, with fo-cus on student aid, student experi-ence, athletics, library or faculty-specifi c initiatives.

“In a nutshell it’s crowd funding for a university,” Davies said. “What we have learned about Carleton is there isn’t just one opportunity or one need on campus, it’s everything from research projects to travel aca-demic opportunities that need fund-ing. What we lacked was a way for our donors to see everything at once, to fi nd the projects that refl ect who they are and what they want to ac-complish for themselves. So we thought ‘what if we could put all these opportunities in one place and let people browse?’”

Much like the more well-known services Indiegogo and Kickstarter, Futurefunder.ca allows anyone who fi nds a particular project interesting the opportunity to support it.

Each project has a detailed descrip-tion of what it is, what the needs are and why it’s important.

There are currently 14 projects on the website that range from

helping the MacOdrum Library raise $10,000 to acquire the ar-chives of Taylor & Francis Online Journals to a philosophy exchange program looking to raise $5,000 to help graduate students from India learn at Carleton to raising $2,550 to send a child to Carleton’s Virtual Ventures engineering and technol-ogy camp.

Each project accepts donations on-line or by cheque and offer donors a tax receipt. Timelines vary for when each individual project needs to com-plete its funding by, but Davies said the website favours projects with tight timelines that need an immedi-ate funding boost.

Since launching, a few of the proj-ects have surpassed funding goals in a matter of days. Davies likens this to the ability to share the project details with friends, family and larger social circles.

“It’s going well and has becomes less about the browsing and more about the social aspect and I think that is because its more about who is a part of the project,” he said.

“The benefi ciary becomes the fundraiser themselves. They tweet and spread the word, and that is where we see the growth and the ability to reach larger crowds.”

The greater goal for the website is for people to support Carleton in a way they never have been able to before, Davies said. The university is one of the few in the country that are taking on this type of crowd-fund-ing.

“In one hand it is about fi nding new supporters, but it’s also about showing new initiatives for donors to support,” Davies said. “We hope that more people on campus, faculty and students who have needs and op-portunities that they need funding for will see this as a platform to raise the money.”

For more information about Car-leton’s new crowd funding website, visit Futurefunder.ca.

SUBMITTED

The Antarctic University Expedition at the end of 2013 is one of 14 projects seeking funding on Carleton University’s new crowd-funding website, Futurefunder.ca. The project funding goal through Future Funders is $10,000. All donations received will be divided equally among the students to reduce their expenses.

announced on March 21.

Fans can now mark their calendars with

“As the largest single sports event for

women in the world, and the fi rst single

sport event in Canada, we are excited to

host the FIFA Women’s World Cup”, May-

or Jim Watson said in a statement.

“Ottawa is once again the stage for a ma-

jor sporting event that will attract the eyes

of the world.”For the fi rst time, the 2015 tournament

will welcome 24 teams from around the

world, a milestone in women’s soccer as

the game continues to grow in all regions

of the globe.Ottawa will host two World Cup games

on June 7, two on June 11 and two on

City looks to crack down on fake charity boxes

Laura [email protected]

EMC news - The city is cracking down on messy

donation bins that appear to be collecting clothes for

charity, but are actually run by businesses.

Bins on private property will have to display

whether the operator is a registered charity, (along

with the registration number), a non-profi t organiza-

tion or a for-profi t business, under a proposal that

will be voted on by council on March 27.

The sign will also have to display contact informa-

tion for the operator, as well as the pickup schedule.

There will also be rules to ensure the property

owner keeps the area surrounding the bin clean and

debris free.“This is a very good, made-in-Ottawa solution to

a problem,” said Kanata South Coun. Allan Hubley,

who asked the city to tackle the issue.

“We’re getting what I wanted out of this, which is

residents having the information so they can make an

informed decision about where to donate, and also

for property owners before they make a decision to

take a box. These people will have to tell them up-

front where the clothes are going.”

Other Ontario municipalities, including Hamilton,

have expressed interest in following Ottawa’s lead in

regulating donation bins.

EMC news - The city plans to write off $1 million of the $10 million it is owed from property owners who had agreed to pay tax levies for local infrastructure improve-ments.

Most of the outstanding charges – 70 per cent – are related to local projects like the Manotick sanitary sewer extensions and an extension to Legget Drive that were constructed over the last four years.

The city can allow property owners to pay for a portion of work that wouldn’t be warrant-ed under city policies, such as extending a water main farther down a street than planned in order to provide service to ad-ditional properties.

Some of that money likely can’t be recovered because of a loophole: if the property changed hands and the local improvement fee wasn’t reg-istered on the properties’ title, the city is pretty much out of luck.

The city could take those new owners to court, said Rideau-Rockcliffe Coun. Peter Clark, who sits on the fi nance and economic development committee, but lawyers advised that the city likely wouldn’t be successful.

With that in mind, the fi -nance committee agreed that outstanding local improvement

charges should be dismissed if the owner bought the prop-erty after the infrastructure construction and if the tax cer-tifi cate did not list the pending charges. Those property owners will also have to sign an affi da-vit saying they were not aware of the pending charges when they bought the property.

That would apply to 73 property owners who should be on the hook to pay the city a total of $1.1 million.

Council was set to vote for fi nal approval on the matter on April 10. The city has taken steps to ensure this doesn’t happen again. Property tax certifi cates will be required to have a note listing the local improvement charge. A com-mittee of revision hearing, which is required in case prop-erty owners want to appeal the amount they were charged for

their portion of the work, must happen within a year of the end of the project’s warranty peri-od. Those measures have been in place since 2010.

There are a few reasons why the fees haven’t been collected. Some are administrative and relate to legislative delays and research necessary for launch-ing the committee of revision, while other delays are caused by the length of the construc-tion projects and the staff time required to “triage” the new projects.

The committee’s approval was also needed to allow the city to accept a payment for a water main project on Navan Road that was completed be-fore council passed a bylaw enabling it to impose local im-provement charges. The total $17,708 in fees for that project have been paid in full.

City to write off $1M in unpaid levies

• Legget Drive extension: $217,102• Navan Road water main extension: $14,545• Kempark sanitary sewer service: $67,438• Innes Road sanitary sewer extensions: $149,413• Pagé Road sanitary sewer extension: $107,489• Winding Way North water main

EMC news - More lines painted on the road, brighter traffi c signals and collapsible posts to separate bicycle lanes from cars will be coming soon to make Bronson Avenue safer for pe-destrians and cyclists.

The interim measures, which also include lengthening the crosswalk times, are the fi rst steps following a safety review of the road from Hol-mwood Avenue to Brewer Way af-ter the death of cyclist and Carleton University student Krista Johnson last fall.

The measures were approved by the city’s transportation committee during a meeting on April 3.

While the study found there were 604 collisions in the study area in the decade from January 2002 to Decem-ber 2011, it specifi cally looked at the causes of 18 collisions involving cy-clists and 14 involving pedestrians.

Being near Carleton, most of the collisions happened in the winter months and after dark, and all oc-curred on weekdays.

Issues identifi ed by the public dur-ing the consultation included:

• Wrong-way cycling

• Fast vehicle speeds• Jaywalking in the block between

Sunnyside Avenue and Brewer Way• Motorists not yielding to pedestri-

ans at crosswalks• Lots of rear-end collisions north-

bound on Bronson Avenue at Brewer Way

• Most cyclist collisions happen after dark and in wet conditions in September

An educational campaign called Be Safe Be Seen will kick off at Carleton in the fall to support the safety chang-es. There is a spike in collisions on Bronson in September when school is back in session, the review found.

The report also suggests long-term changes that could be studied in more detail in the future, including:

• Reconfi guring the Colonel By Drive on- and off-ramps to a T-format and adding a traffi c signal at Bronson Avenue (funding to be requested in the 2014-15 budgets)

• Construction of a gateway fea-ture

• Possible addition of raised cycle tracks

• Possible changes to the layout of the road, such as altering the width of lanes and median.

The review did not recommend

any changes to the posted speed lim-its, which range from 50 kilometres per hour north of the Rideau Canal, transitioning to 60 km/h south of the canal and 70 km/h south of Sunnyside Avenue. Throughout the section that was studied, 85 per cent of the traffi c was moving at 74 to 76 km/h.

The interim changes, including posting speed display boards on Bron-son, may encourage slower speeds, the staff report states. Staff will study vehicle speeds in the summer and fall to see if that’s the case.

The only member of the public who came to speak to the transpor-tation committee about the report – Peter Brimacombe of the Hunt Club Community Association – opposed the changes because he thought they would lead to longer commutes for south-end residents.

“Bronson Avenue provides our community with access to the down-town and Gatineau … there is no al-ternative,” he said.

Gloucester-Southgate Coun. Diane Deans said she supported the interim changes, but also questioned staff about whether it will take longer to commute.

“I don’t think there is anyone out there who is against making Bronson

safer,” she said. “The only real is-sue is about whether this will restrict people’s ability – we’re talking about drivers – to use this road.”

Staff said there probably won’t be additional delays on Bronson due to the interim safety changes. Capital Coun. David Chernushenko, in whose ward the changes will be made, said he doesn’t want drivers to have lon-ger commuting times, either, because congestion will lead to motorists cut-ting through neighbourhoods instead, which can also be unsafe.

“What we are doing here is fi nally – I would put it that way – fi nally ... taking some signifi cant steps,” Cher-nushenko said. “Could we do more? Yes, but then we start to get into issues of congestion.”

Kanata South Coun. Allan Hubley questioned whether the city would be taking a serious look at providing cy-cling routes on pathways instead of on roads, which is common in Kanata.

Transportation planning manager Vivi Chi said staff also looks at op-tions for multi-use pathways.

Tormentor’s prank helped build character, Mother saidIt wasn’t only that

Marguirite was an only child and spoiled beyond belief, but she had a way

about her that riled everyone at Northcote School.

Often I couldn’t pin down exactly what it was I didn’t like about the young girl. But there were times it was all too obvi-ous that Marguirite felt about me, exactly as I felt about her.

Take the day she decided to walk home from school the long way. She could have just hopped down the road to her house about a kilometre away, had she chosen. But that day she decided she would go around the concession and walk to the Northcote side road with my little friend Joyce and me. We could have easily done without her company.

There were things we wanted to talk about – the new boy in senior fourth for instance – that we wouldn’t dare say a word about in front of Marguirite because we might as well write it on the black-board for the whole school to see. Marguirite couldn’t keep a thing to herself.

It was a day I will not soon forget. I can even remember what I had on that day, which had a lot to do with why I re-member the details so well.

Mother had made me a blouse out of bleached fl our bag material.

To take away the look that it once held fl our, Mother had dyed it a bright green with Ritz dye. That day I had on this freshly dyed blouse over a white skirt which had come in a hand-me-down box from my

aunt in St. Catharines. Mother thought it was far

too early in the season for a white skirt, but I prevailed on her saying Marguirite had been in white for days.

Well, that day, as we headed out after school, Joyce and I tried to ignore Marguirite as we walked along the Northcote side road. The ditches were full of water from the heavy rains we had that spring and occasionally we would stop and kick small stones into the water or coax a frog off the gravel.

Marguirite said she had better things to do with her time than talk to frogs and toss stones into a ditch – Joyce sug-gested she hurry on ahead of us and do whatever that was.

My friend and I had on black brogue shoes – Marguirite’s were patent leather and they soon were covered with sand and dust. We pointed this fact out to her, saying we bet her mother would sure be mad when she got home and saw the mess of her good school foot-wear. Marguirite assured us her mother never got mad at her. Joyce rolled her eyes skyward.

We didn’t believe her for a minute.

I couldn’t wait to get to the end of the side road so that this pest would leave us and

head off in the direction that would take her on to her house.

What if Marguirite decided to walk down past Briscoe’s General Store? That would mean she would be with us almost all the way home. The thought just about gave me a sick stomach.

Joyce suggested to Mar-guirite that she would be late for supper if she walked with us much farther. That didn’t matter to her, she assured us. Her mother would keep supper warm for her. It was sure dif-ferent in our house. We better be there when it was time to sit down at the kitchen table or we didn’t eat.

She was really getting on my nerves. I decided the best thing to do so that I could endure the walk to the crossroad was to pretend she wasn’t there. I squatted down on my haunches at the edge of the road, peering into the deep dark green water of the ditch.

I told Joyce I could see tadpoles, which of course I couldn’t. Joyce squatted too. We squinted into the water pre-tending to be deeply engrossed in what was in the water-fi lled ditches.

Well, right out of the blue, Marguirite’s foot hit the middle of my back and within seconds

she connected with Joyce sending us both sprawling. We went headlong into the water. It wasn’t deep, but we came up spluttering and rubbing our eyes.

All we could see of Mar-guirite was those spindly legs bolting down the Northcote side road. Joyce was out of the ditch fi rst.

She held her hand down towards me and helped me onto the side of the road. I could see Joyce staring at me. I followed the direction of her eyes.

Great streams of green dye were running from the home made blouse, into the white hand-me-down skirt! I was starting to look like a patch-work quilt.

I looked down the road to see if I could catch up to Mar-guirite. She was just a dot on the Northcote side road.

There was nothing to do but head for home. By the time I hit the kitchen door, my clothes were dry and the green water mixed with weeds from the ditch and mud from the road, were caked to my legs. Only then did I burst into tears.

Mother stripped my clothes and even though it wasn’t yet Saturday night, I was given a bath in the copper tub before supper.

All the time I lamented about the girl I hated with a passion, but once again Mother called my ordeal character building.

I told Mother, after my ordeal with Marguirite, I thought I had had just about all the character building I could stand in one lifetime.

Pet Adoptions

Please note: The Ottawa Humane Society has many other companion animals available for adoption. Featured animals are adopted quickly! To learn more about adopting an animal from the Ottawa Humane Society please contact us: Website: Email: Telephone:

As urban development encroaches on previously untamed areas, more human-wildlife conflicts result. People are frequently confronted with many wildlife species, including raccoons, groundhogs, squirrels, skunks, and a variety of birds.

These animals have largely managed to adapt well to our presence. Humans, on the other hand, are still mastering this living arrangement. It is important for people to understand the need for effective, lasting, and humane solutions to occasional conflicts with wildlife.

If you find an injured wild animal that is bleeding, has a broken limb, is walking in circles or falling over when walking, or another obvious injury, please contact Ottawa Humane Society’s Emergency Services at 613-725-1532.

For large wildlife, such as deer, moose and bear, please call Ottawa Police Services at 613-236-1222. If a wild animal does not show any signs of injury, then it is best to leave it alone. Wildlife issues are temporary problems and there are solutions. It seems daunting, but if you work out a solution, you can make sure you never have this problem again. Property owners are responsible for dealing with their wildlife situation humanely and legally. There are solutions and tips

available at www.ottawahumane.ca to get the animals to relocate on their own. Please be advised that although you are only seeing one animal, it may not be alone. The birthing season runs from late February to early October, and the babies are helpless when first born and not yet able to leave their nest or den with mom. If you scare the mother away, she may abandon her young. It is critical not to trap young inside, as they will perish, possibly falling between walls and requiring expensive drywall removal and causing very bad odours if they die in inaccessible areas. Many birds fly into windows at this time of year. The sun is low in the sky and causes some unusual reflections.If a bird hits your window, confine the bird in a ventilated box, with a covered hot water bottle in the bottom. The box should be closed, which helps slow down the bird’s metabolism, and placed in a warm area of the house that is isolated from people and pets. Leave the bird alone for one hour.

After one hour, they can take the box outside and open it. It may take a few moments for the bird’s eyes to adjust to the light. If it flies away – perfect! The bird was simply stunned. If it does not fly away it needs care. Contact the Wild Bird Care Centre at 613-828-2849.

If you have further questions about wild animals, you may contact the Ottawa Humane Society at 613-725-3166 ext. 262, or send an email to [email protected].

Mack is a neutered male, brown tabby Domestic Shorthair cat who loves people. He is 8 years old and was surrendered to the shelter by his owner on February 26. Mack is a friendly cat who is comfortable

residing with feline friends as long as they are respectful of his space. He loves to perch up high and watch the world pass him by. Mack would make a great companion in a quiet, adult only home as

he is independent and enjoys taking his cat naps undisturbed.

Millie is a spayed female, agouti and white Rex mix who loves to frolic, jump and play. She is about 7 months old, and was surrendered to the shelter by her owner on March 14. Millie is looking for a loving home with lots of room to run, great toys to keep her busy and chew toys to help keep her teeth fit and trim. She will need an owner who is ready to accommodate a rabbit that is still growing! She will need a larger cage that she can grow into, and plenty of time to play outside of her cage!

For more information about these or other animals available for adoption, please call the Adoption Centre at 613-725-3166 ext. 258 or visit www.ottawahumane.ca.

EMC news - Members of the Otta-wa community came together on the steps of Parliament Hill on March 27 in advance of the fi rst offi cial World Autism Awareness Day.

In front of those speaking at the event was “The Faces of Autism” banner, which featured 88 faces of individuals from across Canada who suffer from autism. The words one in 88 were written at the bottom of the banner, referring to the number of children diagnosed with autism.

“That’s a statistic that should re-ally get our attention,” said Suzanne Jacobson, founder of QuickStart, a charity that offers free services to parents who have children with au-tism. “The number of people being diagnosed with autism is growing tremendously.”

Jaden Lake, 17, is one of those children diagnosed with autism.

His father, Edmonton-Mill Woods-Beaumont MP Mike Lake, brought Jaden up with him to micro-phone as he spoke to the crowd of about 100.

Lake spoke about how his son studies in a Grade 11 class, volun-teers at an Edmonton library and par-ticipates in musical theatre.

“One of the real blessings of my time here is really how colleagues from all parties have come together in support of Jaden,” said Lake. “Pol-iticians from all parties care about this issue and come together around this issue.”

Bill S-206 or the World Autism Awareness Day Act, introduced by Liberal Senator Jim Munson and unanimously passed by all parties, made April 2 the offi cial day for Canada to recognize autism.

“The more people that are aware, the better,” said Scott Wilson, who attended with his son Cameron, who was diagnosed with autism three weeks ago.

Wilson brought his son to Emerg-ing Minds, a private treatment centre for children, to be checked for au-tism after growing impatient with the waitlist at CHEO.

Having a similar experience with her grandson is what led Jacobson to found QuickStart.

“We have come to recognize that the current system isn’t necessar-ily the best system and that we need to work together to be able to serve more kids and be able to reach more people,” said Alex Munter, CEO of CHEO, as he spoke to those gath-ered.

Munter, who has been with CHEO for 18 months, praised the provincial and federal government for funding

autism research.“Offi cially we start moving for-

ward,” said Jacobson, referring to

World Autism Awareness Day being recognized by Canadian law, “I be-lieve momentum will increase.”

EMC news - Secrecy shouldn’t be part of the deal when it comes to part-nerships between the city and private companies, a community representa-tive told the city’s de facto executive committee last week.

The city formalized its policy for public-private partnerships – or P3s, as they are known – during an April 2 meeting of the fi nance and economic development committee. For the most part, the rules codify what the city has already been doing when it comes to arrangements for companies to build and/or operate municipal facilities such as arenas, said Jeff Byrne, the city’s procurement manager. The policy also adds a requirement to report back to committee and council about the results of the partnership.

Bob Brocklebank, a representative of the Federation of Citizens’ Associations and the Glebe Community Association, told the committee that the city needs to be open and provide as much informa-tion as possible to convince the public that a partnership is the best idea.

“If a P3 is truly better than a tradi-tional approach, let the public see that is the case,” he said. “Being open about it will reduce the strife that has plagued past projects.”

Brocklebank said he has no “ideo-logical objections” to P3s, but the com-munity needs to be fully engaged in the process – both before and after a project is approved and completed – to ensure success.

The committee supported an addi-tion from Gloucester-Southgate Coun. Diane Deans to include a line requir-ing details about proposed P3s to be released to the public for consultation and information as soon as possible in the process.

The formalized policy came out of a request from the city auditor general’s offi ce in 2006. The audit required the city to boost accountability, solidify the business case for partnerships and improve how the results are reported to councillors and the public. Clarify-ing the roles and responsibilities of city staff in that process was also sug-gested.
