News - Rookie Nepean-Carleton Liberal candidate Jack Uppal was on the defen-sive during a televised debate that aired on Rogers, May 29.

Uppal said the Liberals did very well coming out of the recession, but incumbent Lisa MacLeod said the Liber-als budget is not workable.

“Ontario has the highest annual defi cit and accumu-lated debt of any province,” she said. “Since the Liberals took offi ce in 2003, the num-ber of public sector workers has grown by 300,000. That’s happened while we continue to lose jobs in the manufac-turing sector. Their plan is not workable.”

Ric Dagenais, the NDP candidate also took some criticism for what MacLeod called enabling the Liberals.

“Their platform is a mirror of the Liberal budget,” Ma-cLeod said.

Dagenais and Uppal in turn attacked the Conserva-tives million jobs plan.

“The mathematics on the plan are wrong,” Uppal said.

Green Party candidate Gordon Kubanek said their needs to be a middle ground between the Conservatives “slash and burn” plan and overspending. He called the province’s defi cit a disaster, but said there needs to be a more balanced approach to get the province back on track than the one the Con-servatives are proposing.

The candidates spent a lot of time hashing out ris-ing hydro rates , with Lisa Macleod blaming the Green Energy Act and utility com-panies like Hydro One and Ontario Power Generation for driving prices up.

Kubanek said green energy wasn’t to blame.

“Green Energy can help reduce cost, but it was the policies of the Liberals that are to blame here,” he said.

Dagenais said the NDP planned to take HST off Hy-dro bills and get rid of the debt retirement charge. He moved the topic to transpor-tation, saying staggered work hours, four-day work weeks and expanding telecom-muting would mean people would use electricity at off peak hours and save money.

Uppal said the Liberals support every kind of mass transit. Kubanek said urban planning and intensifi cation are some of the ways we can improve mobility.

Macleod said growth in Riverside South and Bar-rhaven are what prompted her to fi ght for funding for the Strandherd-Armstrong Bridge and she promised to “fi ght like heck” to make sure Ottawa got its fair share of provincial transit funding.

Nepean-Carleton debate focuses on jobs, hydro rates

News - Nepean-Carleton MPP Lisa MacLeod is un-der fi re from the Ottawa and District Labour Council for a comment she made regarding vandalised election signs in her riding.

In a May 26 post on her MPP Facebook page MacLeod challenged the vandals.

“We have more signs. A lot more,” the post reads. “Most of all, my team may not be the Working Families Inc, a group of public sector union leaders, but they are real working fam-ilies and they are mad.”

MacLeod discovered that more than 60 of her signs had been cut or stolen in Bar-rhaven on May 25, a few days later she noticed more van-dalism on Limebank Road in

Riverside South – bringing the total to more than 100.

But the Ottawa District and Labour Council shifted the focus from damaged signs with a “strongly-worded” let-ter to MacLeod, demanding she apologize for insinuating union leaders and workers were to blame for the dam-age.

“Many are accustomed to Ms. MacLeod’s childish re-

marks and actions but this goes beyond that,” Sean McK-enny wrote in a press release on May 27. “We understand her frustration in that her party isn’t doing as well as she and other Conservatives would have hoped and recent polls support this. Regardless, tak-ing it out on hardworking men and women and their families in Nepean-Carleton and else-where is completely and to-tally unacceptable.”

In a follow up Facebook, Macleod said she didn’t say he, or any other public sec-tor union leader destroyed the signs.

“Why is he so sensitive?” she asks in the May 27 post.

A campaign spokesperson for Bob Chiarelli, the MPP in neighbouring Ottawa West-Nepean, said sign destruction is something every candidate deals with.

“Our sign crews have been out every morning to repair signs (sliced, knocked over or pulled down), the statement reads. “We did notice an in-crease on Friday night (May 23), where signs from all four parties were destroyed and we received a number of calls

from the public to alert us to this activity. In fact, our crews repaired over 50 signs on Sat-urday (May 24) alone.”

Ric Dagenais, the NDP candidate for Nepean-Car-leton said he has noticed some vandalism, but no more than in previous election cam-paigns. Although he did have some signs stolen right off his lawn. Green Party candidate Gordon Kubanek said he’s had some knocked down or damaged, but is more inter-ested in discussing issues than

putting up lawn signs. “It’s a kind of pollution, it’s neces-sary, but I think it can get to be too much,” he said.

Police have charged two men in relation to torching signs on Southmore Drive and McCarthy Road on May 22.

The pair lit several cam-paign signs on fi re in the early morning hours of May 22 and were seen fl eeing the scene by a witness. Police said the pair weren’t targeting a particular party and it appears to be a random act.

News - The Greely Com-munity Association is calling on residents for a helping hand.

The association puts on the village’s Canada Day celebrations every year.

“It’s the same people helping out a lot of the time and the more people we have the more everyone can take breaks and that sort of thing,” community association pres-ident Bruce Brayman said.

While the planning part is largely fi nished, Bray-man said volunteers on the ground, helping with the logistics during the celebra-

tions would be a big help. The celebrations have be-

come a staple in rural Ottawa south, with some people trav-elling from downtown to get a breath of fresh air and take in Greely’s fi reworks and lo-cal talent.

“I talked with one guy who came out to Greely all the way from Preston Street. He wanted to get away from the congestion downtown,” Brayman said.

Revellers who have cel-ebrated Canada’s birthday in Greely before will know what to expect with live en-tertainment, food and chil-dren’s activities.

Manotick-based talent Terry McGovern and the

Retrosonics will be return-ing this year to provide the entertainment, along with Greely Idol winners Breanna Nyitrai, 16, and Graceson Montanaro, 8.

Instead of the standard bouncy castle, children will get to play with a climbing wall and infl atable obstacle course. Firefi ghters will also be on hand for a demonstra-tion.

The community asso-ciation has already received funding from the city’s rural and civic affairs for the fi re-works and are waiting on a grant application from the Department of Heritage.

Brayman said the associa-tion typically spends $10,000

on fi reworks – last year they spent $12,500.

“The more grant money we receive the better show we can put on,” he said.

The association will be meeting next on June 11 to elect a new executive. For more information, visit www.greelycommunity.org.

News – A south Glouces-ter auto body shop went up in fl ames in the early morning hours of May 20.

Investigators from Ontar-io’s Offi ce of the Fire Mar-shall have taken over the case, after it was determined the auto body shop, located at 4085 Ramsayville Rd., suf-fered more than $750,000 in damages.

The provincial body leads fi re investigations involving more than $500,000 in dam-age, or other criteria, such as a fatality, critical injury or sus-pected arson.

The blaze that ultimately ravaged the shop is not con-sidered suspicious, said Capt. Marc Messier, Ottawa fi re ser-

vices spokesman.While the cause of the fi re

has not yet been determined, investigators suspect the fi re ignited in or near a car parked in one of the shop’s work bays.

“This car was in the process of being painted, so whether something malfunctioned, caused a spark, caused the ignition of some fumes, (we) don’t know,” said Messier. “That’s what they’ll work on, trying to fi gure it out.”

Two staff members work-ing the overnight shift at the shop managed to get two ve-hicles out of the garage before the fl ames spread. One worker suffered minor burns to one hand, and was treated at the scene but did not require a trip to hospital, Messier said.

Another four or fi ve ve-

hicles parked inside the prem-ises were completely burnt, as well as the unhitched bed of a tractor trailer which contained tires that was parked nearby.

Multiple 911 calls came in around 3:25 a.m., prompt-ing almost 20 fi refi ghters in eight trucks to respond to the primarily residential area. The emergency was quickly upgraded to a two-alarm fi re, bringing out 12 more emer-gency responders.

Approximately 40 fi refi ght-ers were on scene during the height of the fi re, which was fi nally contained at 5:45 a.m.

“They had a couple of (in-dustrial) propane tanks beside the building they would have had to concentrate their efforts on to prevent possible explo-sion,” Messier said.

“They also had a trailer

catch fi re, so they probably had quite a bit of fi re involve-ment.”

Firefi ghters were faced with the additional hurdle of bring-ing in water from an external source due to a lack of fi re hy-drants in the neighbourhood.

To allow water to be trucked in from the nearest hydrants, Ottawa police temporarily closed a section of Ramsay-ville Road.

“So the advantage of where they were there is that they had water sources nearby so

they didn’t have to shuttle very far,” Messier said. “It was challenging in the sense that there’s a lot more vehicles moving around, but as far as water, it was not an issue. We managed to maintain good water.”

News - Ontario and the On-tario Provincial Police are re-minding people to take simple precautions this spring to pre-vent attracting black bears as they come out of hibernation.

The potential for human-bear confl icts increases when there is little natural food available for bears. If this happens, black bears will search for other food sources, such as garbage and bird feed, which can draw bears to pop-ulated areas.

Follow these simple in-structions to minimize the chances of attracting bears:

Store garbage in waste con-tainers with tight-fi tting lids.

• Put out garbage only on the morning of pickup.

• Put away bird feeders. Seed, suet and nectar also at-tract bears.

• Pick fruits and berries as they ripen—don’t let them rot on the ground.

• Clean outdoor barbecue grills after each use, including the grease trap underneath. Bears will be drawn by smells from great distances, includ-ing grease and food residue on grills.

Bears that enter a popu-lated area aren’t necessarily a threat to public safety. Public safety is at risk when a bear poses an immediate threat to your safety.

The Ministry of Natural Re-sources and OPP have agreed on the roles and responsibili-ties for both organizations to help the public understand which organization to contact when they encounter a bear.

If a bear is posing an im-mediate threat to public safe-

ty by exhibiting threatening or aggressive behaviour, call 911 or your local police. At the request of police, during daylight hours the Ministry of Natural Resources will respond to emergency situa-tions to assist. For non-emer-gencies, the Ministry of Natu-ral Resources operates the toll-free, 24/7 Bear Reporting Line (1-866-514-2327) and the Bear Wise website to pro-vide the public with informa-tion and advice.

Published weekly by:

The city is offering a wonderful oppor-tunity for residents to explore Ottawa’s cultural diversity and rich heritage this weekend.

Since 2002, more than 700,000 visitors have taken advantage of Doors Open Ottawa, a free an-nual event that provides insider access to buildings such the Embassy of the Republic of Armenia, the Royal Canadian Mint and the Ottawa Police Service building.

The event will unlock the doors of normally off-limit buildings such as ambassador’s homes and the Britannia Water Purifi cation Plant.

This year’s tour, on June 7 and 8, will feature more than 120 buildings.

The Children’s Hospital of Eastern Ontario will participate in the event as part of its 40th birthday celebration. Residents are invited to take a behind-the-scenes look at the hospital’s “cutting-edge” research and visit labs, surgical suites, a butterfl y garden as well as a chance to check out its famous Karsh portraits.

Visitors can select from a variety of modes of transportation: walking, driving, cycling – Doors Open Ottawa will provide a free shuttle bus, which will offer stops within walking distance of 50

buildings on the tour.For some residents, the day will present an op-

portunity to learn about other cultures or religions by visiting buildings such as Blessed Sacrament Church, located on 194 Fourth Ave., the Greek Orthodox Church,1315 Prince of Wales Dr., the Hindu Temple of Ottawa-Carleton Inc., 4835 Bank St. The Ottawa Main Mosque, 251 Northwestern Ave., or the Protection of the Holy Virgin Russian Orthodox Church, 99 Stonehurst Ave.

Mayor Jim Watson hit the nail on the head when he referred to the tour as an opportunity to experi-ence fi rst-hand some of Ottawa’s architectural treasures.

Organizers say this year’s buildings are an “eclectic mix of modern and heritage architec-ture,” including churches, mosques, government buildings together with artist studios and private businesses.

Some examples include the Arts Court, 2 Daly Ave., the Mercury Court Building, 377 Dalhousie St., the C.D. Howe Building , 235 Queen St., the Carleton Masonic Lodge, 3704 Carp Rd., or the First Baptist Church, 140 Laurier Ave. West.

We should never take our history and culture for granted.

OPINIONOPINION Connected to your community

My friend and I bumped into each other at the gym and were discussing what it needed. There was the usual list of

complaints, despite the fact that it is a very nice gym. Then he said something that struck me.

“We need to get rid of the beeps,” he said.From that moment, I began hearing beeps

that I’d never heard before. This gym, like other gyms has machines that beep. They beep when you change settings. Because they are spiffy new machines — treadmills, bicycles, ellipticals and the like — there are lots of settings to change.

You can change the speed, the incline, the degree of diffi culty, the type of readout. You can turn the TV on and off and change the channels. If you increase to six miles per hour from one mile per hour, the machine will beep for every 10th of a mile.

They aren’t that loud. If you never think about beeps, they probably don’t annoy you. Once you start thinking about them, they do. Sorry to make you think about them.

We are so used to beeps in our lives that we may have forgotten to ask why they are there. What favour is the machine doing for us when it beeps?

Well, it’s telling us that we pushed a but-ton. The bank machine tells us we pushed a button. Some car keys beep when we push a button. (Others honk – even worse.) Gas pumps beep when we select a grade of gaso-line. Phones beep when we press a number.

Maybe we need to be informed that we pushed a button. That’s because, in another triumph of modern design, buttons have been made so that they don’t click down when we push them.

But we shouldn’t need that favour, should we, because machines have a visual display that tells us we pushed a button. In the gym, you know without a beep that you just increased your speed.

My friend was thinking that it would probably take a technician from the tread-

mill company to make the beeps go away, so it was unlikely to happen. That’s no surprise. Even when we have the power to make the beeps go away, we rarely take advantage of them. We seem to want a noise that tells us when there’s email, even though we can see the icon on the screen. It’s easy to stop your car from honking when you lock it, but most people don’t bother, which is yet another reason why shopping centre parking lots are among the least pleasant places on the planet.

The sad fact, really sad to my friend, is that we have become a beep-addicted soci-ety. The number of devices that beep grows every day and our efforts to control them are laughably ineffective. There is no will to do it. It’s no surprise, is it, that the federal gov-ernment is giving in to those who demand that their electronic devices be available to them at every possible second on airplanes.

Transport Minister Lisa Raitt announced last week that passengers will be able to use their portable electronic devices during takeoff, ascent, descent and landing fl ights, as long as the devices are in non-transmit-ting, or fl ight, mode.

“If you think about it,” she said, “here you are trying to fi nish a memo, or you’re

trying to fi nish reading a document or you have your child next to you who’s playing on their Nintendo DS or on a tablet. Now, you have productivity time and you have the freedom to choose.”

Heaven knows, we wouldn’t want any-body to be deprived of productivity or Nin-tendo just because a plane is landing. Now nobody has to go without their beeps for even a second. It could be a good campaign issue for the government next year. Unless people suddenly start noticing beeps.

News - The city is reducing public consul-tation requirements for certain small-scale resi-dential developments.

The changes relate to an update on how the city handles site plan applications – a more onerous review it re-quires developers to go through if they want to build something bigger or more involved than something like a single-family home.

The site plan bylaw changes endorsed by the planning committee on May 28 would reduce the types of development applications that would require neighbours to be notifi ed.

The goal is to make public consultation more meaningful, said Mi-chael Mizzi, the city’s chief of development re-

view services.“(It’s) so that we’re

not notifying everyone about every small little development that only requires a building per-mit,” Mizzi said.

“We want the public consultation to be mean-ingful. If we are going to draw people out to a community consultation meeting on their eve-nings and their time off, it’s to review something that their input is going to help us make changes to the process that are meaningful.”

Mizzi said Ottawa has more public consultation requirements for site plan applications than many other Ontario mu-nicipalities.

“Many municipalities don’t require any consul-tation related to site plan. Ottawa does,” he said.

For residential devel-opment, there will no longer be a public con-

sultation requirement for four-unit developments, which will drop the city fees from $19,903.78 to $6,181.78 for a savings of $13,722 for develop-ers. But the change isn’t really aimed at saving builders money – it’s a way to regain control, said Geraldine Wildman, the city planner in charge of recommending the changes.

“We’ve had plenty of concern raised in the infi ll areas of the city where we know of some of this devel-opment where you’re creating units in a backdoor kind of a way. The conversions really can result in some poor design,” Wildman said. “So we’re going to make sure we’re going to implement the new rules that speak to residential develop-ment equally, wheth-

er you’re doing a new building, an addition or a conversion.”

The changes should make it easier for de-velopers to play by the rules, Wildman said.

“Developers are clev-er. We are now seeing a surge in people building triplexes with unfi nished basements.

They come back in after they complete the fourth unit anyhow,” she said. “We’re trying to gain more compliance

up front.”Consultation will still

be needed for residential buildings of fi ve or more units.

A staff site plan review is required for buildings containing three or four units.

But some smaller de-velopments will no lon-ger require a site plan review – specifi cally, a three-door townhouse row.

Protect Yourself and Prevent the Bite!

R0012516689

Warm weather has arrived and outdoor adventure has begun.

Ottawa Public Health (OPH) is re-minding residents and visitors to be cautious of unwanted com-pany who may latch on for a free

ride – ticks. Ticks vary in size and colour depending on their age and feeding status.

While Ontario is home to a num-be r of different species of ticks, it’s the black-legged tick (Ixodes scapularis; also

called the deer tick) that we have to worry about as it can carry or spread the bacteria Borrelia burgdorferi that causes Lyme Disease (LD). Though not all black-legged ticks are infected with Borrelia burgdorferi, those that are infected must be attached to their human host for a minimum of 24 hours for the bacteria to be transferred into the human blood stream hence the importance of catching it early.

Symptoms of LD usually begin three days to one month after being bitten by an infected tick. Individuals that acquire LD often develop a round, red rash that slowly expands away from the tick bite resembling a “bull’s eye” pattern. Other fl u-like symptoms include – fever, chills, fatigue, headache, muscle and joint pain. If left untreated, LD can cause neu-rological symptoms, rheumatologic symptoms or cardiac ab-normalities weeks to years after onset. As a result, residents are encouraged to see their doctor if they think they might have contracted LD.

Ticks hide in tall grasses or shrubs and crawl onto human or animal hosts when given the opportunity. Humans, dogs, birds and deer populations are all ideal hosts for ticks.

To avoid tick bites, take these easy steps to protect yourself and your family:

• Apply an approved insect repellent containing DEET to exposed skin and clothing;

• Wear long pants, a long sleeved shirt, shoes and socks to avoid exposed skin;

• Tuck pants into socks;

• Wear light coloured clothing;

• Stay to trails and avoid walking in the long grass;

• Check yourself, children and pets for ticks, pay special attention to the scalp, groin, armpits, and behind the knees.

As well, help make your en-vironment less favourable to ticks:

• Keep the grass in your yard mowed;

• Remove brush and fallen leaves from the edges of property, especially if your yard borders a wooded area or fi elds of tall grass;

• Reduce the attraction of small critters such as mice and voles by cleaning up areas under and around bird feeders;

• Discourage deer from entering your yard, as ticks also feed on these animals;

• Place children’s play structures away from wooded areas.

By following these simple tips, you can better enjoy outdoor adventures with your family and friends.

In the event a tick bites you, follow these steps to effectively remove it:

1. Using tweezers, grasp the ticks head as close to the skin as possible and pull slowly until the tick is removed. Do not twist, squeeze or rotate the tick. Do not use a match, lotion or anything else on the tick.

2. Place the tick in an empty pill vial or zip-lock bag with a moistened paper towel.

3. Wash your bite site with soap and water.

If you have a “tick key”, you can:

1. Place the key over the tick in the tear-drop hole.

2. Slide the tick into the specially tapered slot.

3. Pull the key away from the skin. The tick should come out easily. Disinfect your tick key after each use.

Ticks that have bitten humans may be submitted for testing to OPH, by appointment. As this is a surveillance and iden-tifi cation program only, results may not be available for a number of months. Your physician conducts all clinical case management relating to your tick exposure.

For more information or questions regarding tick submissions and Lyme disease, please visit ottawa.ca/LymeDisease or contact Ottawa Public Health at 613-580-6744 (TTY: 613-580-9656).

News - A quartet of Manotick artists will be show-casing their work on June 13.

Mary Hardwick, Nancy Riggs and Jess Weatherhead added a fourth to their usual group. Lauren Mercer-Smail.

“Lauren works with Jess at Roots and Shoots,” Mary Hardwick said. “She has a sketchbook full of beautiful drawings from all over Eu-rope.”

Hardwick has been an art-ist for more than 40 years and originally opened up her home

for shows fi ve years ago. “I wanted to give people

who wouldn’t have any other

chance to exhibit a space to show their work,” she said.

The fi fth annual Collage, Colour and Clay Art Show will take place from June 13 to 15, starting with a vernis-sage at 5 p.m. on June 13.

Each artist has their own style.

Hardwick’s work uses acrylic paint or encaustics – a type of textured paint made from beeswax, resin and pig-ment.

Many of her works feature gardens and have a landscape feel.

Weatherhead’s oil paintings often depict farms and people – likely inspired by her work at Roots and Shoots.

Riggs uses clay and other found materials for her multi-

media works. Riggs, Hardwick and

Weatherhead showcased their work at Manotick Main in November and December in what’s called a pop-up art gal-lery.

They used the space, which was waiting to be leased, to show their work.

Now, with the spring show, the artists will return to their regular space in Hardiwck’s home at 1118 Tighe St. in

Manotick.“It’s right in the heart of the

village and a great space to show art because it’s so open,”

Hardwick said, adding she’s inviting art lovers to come en-joy the art, the garden and a glass of sangria.

As a nutritionist who has prac-ticed in the weight loss worldfor over a decade, I have seenso many clients make the classicweight loss error - they start theirday off well only not to finish itoff as well. In other words, theyeat a healthy breakfast and abalanced lunch, yet – the wheelstend to fall off the nutritionalwagon at 3pm and on and foodcravings/ sugar binges occur.

What I can tell you for sure isthat for weight loss purposes,you must finish your day offas well as you start it. However,if you do crave sweets in theafternoon or after dinner, trustme, this is not a sign that youare weak. Intense cravingsare often a sign that your are“biochemically off” and arebouncing around your bloodsugars (i.e. from eating toomany refined flours or sugars).

It is also human nature thatwhen stressed, tired, bored,emotional – we crave sweet!

In order to break the cycle ofsweet cravings and feel morein control, simply follow thetips below;

Stay hydrated by drinkingwater with lemon and/orsweet herbal teas to satisfyyour craving.

Opt for 2 chocolaty Skinny-chews. Skinnychews aredecadent chews that arenaturally sweetened, low incalories and contain 2 gramsof inulin fiber per chew.Long lasting in your mouthand perfect for hunger andcravings (www.drjoey.com)!

Do not go hungry. Makesure to have a protein at

meals to fill you up. I recom-mend eating a hard-boiledegg, 2-3 slices of turkey orchicken, ½ cup of plainGreek yogurt or a waterbased protein smoothiehelps tremendously.

Keep cut up watermelonin your fridge as a lowcalorie way to cut cravingsnaturally.

Avoid foods that are highon the glycemic index suchas refined flours and sugars(cookies, crackers, bagelsetc.). These foods willbounce around blood sugarand will heighten cravings.

When a craving hits, distractyourself for 10-15 min. bycleaning the house, filingthose papers, playing ballwith your kids, walking

your pet, or running a funerrand with your spouse.The craving will soon pass!

Get Your ZZZ’s. Sleep de-privation and fatigue oftenlead to sugar and carbohy-drate cravings.

By following the tips above, youwill soon be able to avoid eat-ing “off” in the afternoon and

evening thereby helping youlose weight, boost energy andfeel your very best….naturally.

There are only so many ways to design something like a three-unit row, Mizzi said, so there aren’t many ways planners can suggest changing or improving those types of develop-ments.

“We want to free up our staff to have value added for the more

complex and bigger ap-plications,” he said.

“It’s clear we don’t add a lot of value or make a lot of change in the process for really small, non-impactful applications.”

Requiring the more onerous site-plan pro-cess for three-door townhouse rows was ac-tually making that form of housing go extinct in Ottawa, Wildman said.

“Everybody is doing a single beside a semi-detached dwelling now, so that’s the new for-mat,” she said.

Residential singles, semis, duplexes, tri-plexes, garden suites and secondary dwelling units are already ex-empt from the site-plan process.

The change will save homebuilders a $19,903.78 city fee

Community - Since the fi rst Giant Tiger store opened its doors in Ottawa’s ByWard Market in 1961, every step taken has been done with the customer in mind, the com-pany’s president says.

By the end of August this year, the company will have 207 stores in communities across Canada, including six new stores.

“Our goal is certainly to add store count and continue to grow because we think there’s a lot of markets yet that we’re not in that we think we should be in,” said Greg Farrell, Giant Tiger president and chief operating offi cer, adding the company regu-larly receives feedback from customers who would like to see Giant Tiger stores open in their cities.

For that reason, Giant Ti-ger’s business model is one that entrepreneurs can learn from when it comes to achiev-ing success in delivering out-standing customer service and creating an ideal working environment for employees.

A key feature of the pri-vately held Canadian compa-ny’s business model is profi t sharing for the more than 2,000 employees, includ-ing at warehouses, franchise stores, the trucking division and home offi ce, which is lo-cated at 2480 Walkley Rd. in Ottawa.

It encourages those within the Giant Tiger family to work harder and longer for the customers they serve, said Farrell.

“Everyone contributes to the success, and everyone, thereby, should share in the success,” he added.

That success is reliant on delivering quality products, from fashion and groceries to everyday supplies, at low prices to customers.

“Everything is about reduc-ing the cost to get the product onto the shelf and into the cus-tomers’ hands. That’s number

one and number two we will never be beat on price,” said Farrell.

Giant Tiger’s customers ap-preciate the company’s many guarantees from providing rainchecks and accepting coupons to offering a satis-faction guarantee, a no-hassle refund policy, which includes no time limits on refunds, as well as price clawbacks and an ad-match guarantee.

“The customer has to trust us that we have the best price,” Farrell said.

Giant Tiger stores also of-fer convenience by offering friendly store layouts and ac-cessible parking.

The company also strives to deliver affordable fashions for the entire family.

“We will match Target’s quality and style but beat them on price,” said Farrell, a Stittsville resident. “We will match Walmart’s price, but beat them on style.”

Given the highly comple-tive retail industry, the com-pany’s management team and franchise store owners have built a solid name in a high-pressure industry.

“It’s all about trying to give confi dence to our customer,” Farrell said.

His advice to up-and-coming entrepreneurs also includes being clear on your competitive advantage and differentiating your business in the marketplace.

“You also have to be will-ing and able to change and innovate,” he said, adding that the company also maintains its edge by keeping a close watch on competitors.

Giant Tiger is also proudly Canadian.

Today, there are fewer Ca-nadian companies in the rap-idly changing retail sector.

“There’s a lot that have gone by the wayside, a couple of regional players that are in bankruptcy protection,” said Farrell.

The company also prides itself in giving back to com-munities.

“We have three brand pil-lars as to how we run our business, and one of them is being connected to our com-munities, and we think that’s really important,” he said, adding that the ways the com-pany helps range from pro-viding for families in need to supporting local hospital foundations and food banks.

Each year, the company donates more than $2 million

to charities and organizations across the country.

Most recently, eight stores organized free barbecues during the Soldier On Af-ghanistan Relay in early May that saw wounded per-sonnel travel from Trenton,

Ont. to Parliament Hill. Gi-ant Tiger staff also sold offi -cial Soldier On merchandise during the fi ve-day event with proceeds going to the charitable program.

“They’re right there in the community rolling up their

sleeves and they’re very vis-ible, doing what needed to be done to make a difference, in order to make their commu-nities stronger,” said Alison Scarlett, Giant Tiger manager of public relations and com-munity activation.

“Giving back is not just something we do, at Giant Ti-ger it is who we are.”

Giant Tiger’s business philosophy focuses on customer satisfaction, community involvementPresident says company’s model is one for entrepreneurs to emulate

Greg Farrell, president and chief operating offi cer of Giant Tiger Stores Ltd., says the privately held Canadian com-pany’s business model is one that entrepreneurs can fi nd success in emulating.

Giant Tiger Stores remain committed to serving the community, not only by de-livering quality products for low prices to consumers, but also by supporting charitable causes. Giant Tiger president and Stittsville resident Greg Farrell was the fi rst to purchase a hat in support of the company’s support for the Soldier On Afghanistan Relay team, which trav-elled from Trenton, Ont. to Parliament Hill in early May.

News - A ‘dragon’ will land in Ottawa June 9 to impart some lessons learned about making it as an entrepreneur in today’s economy.

Arlene Dickinson, best known for her role as one of fi ve venture capitalists on CBC’s Dragon’s Den series, will be the headline speaker at the Breakfast Seminar Se-ries, presented by Metroland Media Group with Scotia-bank as the title sponsor.

Tiger Stores Ltd. Entre-preneurship Week celebrates the successes of local en-trepreneurs as a community while encouraging others to be innovative to help fuel and drive the local economy.

“The event is a celebration of Entrepreneurship Week and to showcase our com-munity entrepreneurs and their contributions to our lo-cal economy.

News - Ottawa, from a au-tomotive shopper’s perspec-tive is blessed with a retailer per capita rate that is one of the highest in North America with 65 manufacturers’ deal-erships, all operating with solid fi nancial footing un-der professional customer-focused management. The number of dealers has dou-bled since 1971.

Auto retailer ownership here has undergone its own version of restructuring and the results are providing more security for car owners as well as increased selec-tion and a more competitive market.

A great example of how family involvement can improve client satisfaction and long term viability can be found under the Myers nameplate. The name Myers fi rst became associated with automotive retailing and service in Ottawa in 1942. At the time Gordon Myers established Myers Motors as the successor to Ottawa’s fi rst General Motors dealer-ship. After thriving through a series of dedicated own-ers, Hank Mews, the current

president, took over in 1975.Hank Mews joined Myers

in February, 1971, as general manager. He was born and grew up in St. John’s New-foundland and after gradu-ating from high school, his fi rst job was as a salesperson with a Ford dealership in St. John’s.

BASELINE AND MERIVALE

From there, being uncer-tain about what career path to follow, Hank moved to mainland Canada and over the next few years he tried his hand as a commercial pi-lot, as a life insurance sales-person and fi nally as a repre-sentative in a Toronto Adver-tising Agency. Hank piloted Myers Chev-Olds Cadillac at the corner of Baseline and Merivale by himself until sons Harry and Robert joined the organization in the early

1990’s. They have held vari-ous management roles along the way and today are part-ners with Hank in all of the dealerships. They and their customers alike have benefi t-ed from examples lived and lessons passed down from their father. In the show-room, at the home dining table, or at the cottage, Harry and Robert were constantly exposed to Hank’s drive for success and his instruction. They have carried on Hank’s philosophy of providing su-perior customer satisfaction and the vision is to continue to evaluate opportunities for future growth.

From early on, Hank Mews and his family real-ized that long term success would be dependent on pro-viding outstanding customer service. They dedicated much of their fi nancial and human resources to build-

ing a reputation, one client at a time, of being compe-tent, caring, and trustworthy. As a result, in a very com-petitive marketplace, Myers grew, their parts, service and collision repair departments fl ourished, and they quickly became recognized as one of General Motors’ top Cana-dian dealerships. They also learned that customers are most comfortable and loyal when dealing with a neigh-bourhood retailer that sup-ports the community in an active partnership model.

To serve the growing de-mand for local quality car retailers in growing outlying areas of the city, the Mews family opened Mews Chev-rolet in Orleans in 1992. They quickly became a driv-ing force in the burgeoning Eastern city with a fast-growing customer base and extended service hour’s right

from the start.

MOVING WEST

They moved west in 2003 by purchasing Elliott Chev-rolet in Bell’s Corners and relaunching it as Chevy West. In 2005 they part-nered with Keith Bean and amalgamated 2 great GM stores in Brockville into a gleaming 4-line GM store. They expanded outside the GM family with the addi-tion of Myers Hyundai in 2008 in Ottawa West quickly earning Hyundai Canada’s top President’s Award of Merit for superior customer satisfaction ratings. Myers Volkswagen in Kanata, My-ers Kanata Hyundai, Myers Orleans Nissan followed as did their newest member of the dealership family; Myers Kemptville Chevrolet Buick GMC.

Each store is guided by an experienced and dedicated team of professionals, all committed to Hank Mew’s philosophy of providing an exceptional experience to ev-ery customer whether they’re buying a $39 oil change ser-vice or a $75,000 luxury se-dan. No one rests on the lau-rels of past successes or gets any slack because they’re family. Each store, every manager and department head, all of the friendly staff answers to their customers and in this way they are re-sponsive and proactive to the specifi c and unique needs of the areas they represent. They are proud to serve and be part of their Ottawa and Eastern Ontario neighbour-hoods. Every year, the My-ers Automotive Group gives back generously through donations to youth develop-ment groups, local hospitals, and the United Way.

With family leadership like this, it’s easy to under-stand why the auto retail industry in our region is the cream of the crop.

Call for Ontario nominees Giving back is a tribute to your business success

News - (NC) - Pay it Forward initiatives are popular across Canada. They are successful because they benefi t both those who give and those who receive.

“The Canadian Youth Business Foundation has its own unique Pay It Forward movement,” says CYBF Mentor in Residence, Linda Morana.

“Every day, thousands of business mentors nurture and support the fantastic ideas and energy of Canada’s young entrepreneurs. This is great for the entrepreneurs, but mentors get so much out of it too.”

CRITICAL

CYBF research fi nds that a solid mentoring relation-ship is critical to the success of nearly every business start-up. Research shows that 88 per cent of entrepreneurs who have mentors survive in business, compared with only 50 per cent of those who do not. Many successful young entrepreneurs cite “quality, meaningful mentorship” as a driving force for their businesses. Mentoring increases their confi dence, risk-taking and vital skills development.

By paying it forward, you will also build a culture in Canada that supports entrepreneurship – and that’s good for business and good for the country. More information is available online at www.cybf.ca/mentoring.

Emerson insists on proper burial for animalsLifestyle - Emerson

was having no part of it! Ronny and Terry had come from

Montreal for their usual long summer holidays, and Ronny, just as aggressive as Emerson, insisted he was quite capable of playing a leading role in burying the dead bird.

Emerson was high on bury-ing anything that had died on the farm, and having what he called a proper funeral. What he called a proper send-off was saved for birds, squirrels, or anything else that roamed the large acreage that was our farm at Northcote.

He was known to drag a dead groundhog a half mile to give it a proper service.

Now, the service usu-ally included us fi ve children standing, (although my sister Audrey, the oldest was getting less and less enamoured with the whole idea) around in sol-emn wonder as Emerson said a few words, put the deceased in a shallow hole, covered it up, stuck a twig in the mound, and then we were supposed to stand and meditate for at least a full three minutes, which Emerson measured off by

counting backwards.That Saturday the dead

bird was discovered in the barn yard, and Emerson didn’t take long to announce that we should all gather behind the silo as soon as we fi nished our breakfast. Ronny said he would be glad to help with the service. Emerson said that wouldn’t be necessary, he had the service down pat.

Well, Mother wasn’t letting any of us away from the house until the kitchen had been red-ded up, and that included Em-erson pitching in. We all had our special chores, and noth-ing interfered with Mother’s routine, dead bird, or no dead bird.

Ronny was to take the table scraps out to the back stoop for our old Collie dog Sport, who, like the rest of us, was well aware of our meal-time

routine, and was already sit-ting on the bottom step wait-ing for whatever morsel was coming his way. As Ronny was heading out the door, Em-erson hollered, “We’ll meet at the silo in fi ve minutes.”

Finally the red and white oilcloth covered table was wiped clean, the dishes washed, dried and put away, and the fl oor swept.

We all headed for the back door. Audrey couldn’t be coaxed out of the kitchen. “Nonsense...just plain non-sense,” she could be heard muttering. Everything could have been happening in an-other country as far as Mother was concerned. As long as our chores were done to her lik-ing, she was happy!

Emerson always wore his cap at these ceremonies. I thought that strange since you

wouldn’t dare wear a cap in church, and this was supposed to be as close to a church ser-vice as you could get without actually going to church.

He also took the battered hymn book with him. He would have loved to take the bible which sat in the parlour on the twig table, but Mother drew the line on that! No bible left the house to bury a dead bird.

Ronny was already at the site. And it didn’t take a uni-versity graduate to fi gure out what he had done. There was a soft mound of dirt, and a stick at one end of it, and there stood Ronny standing in sol-emn wonder with his hands folded in steeple position and his eyes closed. Ronny had buried the bird. Well, Emerson lost all sense of piety, lunged at Ronny, dropped the hymn book, and was about to tear into him when Everett and Earl got a good hold of him and held him back.

Ronny had the good sense to head for the house where he knew Mother would never let Emerson lay a hand on him.

The rest of us stood around the little mound. I have no

idea when he did it, but Ronny had taken a scrap of paper, woven it through the twig at the head of the make-shift grave, and printed in black red crayon, “Goodbye Bird.” Interested in an electronic ver-

News - Lisa MacLeod said this election is going to be about affordability.

When she’s out knocking on doors, MacLeod said she’s hearing people just can’t af-ford the cost of living.

“Hydro rates are out of con-trol and people can’t cope,” she said.

MacLeod, who is the Con-servative energy critic, was fi rst elected to the position in

a by-election in 2007 when John Baird vacated his seat to run federally.

She previously served as education critic, revenue and accountability critic, govern-ment and consumer affairs committee and critic for chil-dren and youth. MacLeod was also vice chair of the govern-ment agencies committee and a member of the public ac-counts committee.

“I was on maternity leave with Victoria (her daughter) when I decided one morning

that I had to run,” she said. Before her decision, Ma-

cLeod had worked for Bar-rhaven Coun. Jan Harder and Nepean-Carleton MP Pierre Poilievre. She is a strong ad-vocate of government getting out of the way of business.

“When I fi rst came to Otta-wa there were job postings ev-erywhere. Now the next gen-eration is having to leave to fi nd work,” she said. “Some-thing is not working.”

She said to bring Ontario back on course, costs have to

be brought under control. “Right now the debt and

the defi cit are our third largest spending priority,” she said. “That’s dollars that aren’t be-ing spent on things like health-care and education.”

She said public sector job cuts and the PC million jobs plan will help to foster the economy and bring the defi cit under control.

She called the Liberals pro-posed budget a catastrophe.

The Conservatives also plan to scrap the Green Energy Act

and trim the bureaucracies at Hydro One and Ontario Power Generation.During her tenure as MPP, MacLeod said she is proud of the work she has done with the Royal Ottawa Mental Health Centre, as well as helping to get services for children with learning disabil-ities like autism.

As education critic, she pushed for an expansion of Longfi elds Davidson Heights Secondary School as well as new builds for overcrowded Barrhaven networks.

MacLeod said she is hon-oured to represent the resi-dents of Nepean-Carleton and hopes to continue. Lisa MacLeod

Incumbent honoured to stand for residents


News - Ric Dagenais is running on the NDP ticket for Nepean-Carleton for the sec-ond time.

The fi rst time he vied to represent the riding was in the 2011 federal election.

Dagenais lives in Manotick, but has run for a provincial seat in Ottawa Vanier three times before becoming a member of the NDP riding association where he lives in Manotick and running for Ne-pean-Carleton.

A 62-year-old grandfather and retired City of Ottawa worker, Dagenais is dedicated to helping out his neighbours and those in need.

He works as a volunteer with the Causeway Work Centre – whose mission is to provide a range of pre-em-ployment, employment and educational programs and other supports to persons with mental illnesses and/or dis-abilities and those who are homeless or who are at risk of homelessness.

He also volunteers with Rehabilitation Centre through

the Ottawa Hospital. Dagenais said he gets his

fi scal sense from working in the water billing department at the city.

“I always took the motto that I should spend the depart-ments money like I would my own and I never went wrong,” he said. “Our area always had lower costs than other areas of the city.”

When Dagenais retired from the city at the age of 50, he entered the political realm after being nominated as trea-surer of his local branch of the Canadian Union of Public

Employees (CUPE). Then he was nominated to

the board of the Ontario Mu-nicipal Employees Coordinat-ing Committee (OMECC) — a body composed of CUPE lo-cals of municipal employees. When the city amalgamated he was the chair of OMECC and he worked to amalgamate some of the CUPE locals.

Since his fi rst campaign, Dagenais said he has honed his message, and managed to get 15 per cent of the vote in the last provincial election.

He said while he’s knock-ing on doors he has found that

consumer confi dence is down. “People are worried about

job cuts and being able to af-ford their basic expenses like hydro,” he said.

He said the key parts of the NDP platform are jobs, trans-portation and affordability. Dagenais said solutions can be found without throwing money at every problem.

“Transportation and grid-lock are always issues in the riding and the solution has always been to build more roads, but we need to look at solutions like four day work week, telecommuting and staggered hours.

It’s a way the government could really take a lead,” he said. RIck Dagenais

Nepean-Carleton candidate on his seventh run with NDP


News - Jack Uppal has his name on signs in his Bar-rhaven neighbourhood since 2003, but this year is the fi rst time he has ever put his name on a ballot.

Uppal immigrated to Can-ada from India in 1997 under the federal skills program.

He originally lived in Hamil-ton, but commuted to work for two hours each way, so he was happy when he wife got resi-

dency at the Ottawa Hospital. “It’s a great place to raise a

family,” he said. Uppal moved to Barrhaven and became a Real Estate agent in 2003.

“I have served the public with a code of ethics and I plan to take that with me when I move into politics,” he said.

Aside from his work, Up-pal said he has been a long-time volunteer with the Ot-tawa Community Immigrant Services Organization, which helps new immigrants fi nd work through mentorship

opportunities and network-ing. He also works with the Indo-Canada Ottawa business Chamber and has done fund-raising for the Ottawa Heart Institute.

He said he chose to repre-sent the Liberal Party because their policies are line with his beliefs.“They want to invest in people,” he said. “They want to make Ontario globally competitive.”

He said he has been cam-paigning by knocking on doors and is enjoying the chance to

get to know the residents of Nepean-Carleton.

“I have met hundreds of people.

It will take time to catch up, but I have had great help from my team and the party,” he said.

While he is at the door, he said people are most con-cerned about light rail transit. “It’s a bottleneck to get out of Barrhaven in the morning,” he said.

He said his party has also made the primary health care

pledge, which would see ev-eryone with a primary care physician.

“We also want to reduce wait times for specialists,” he said. The other key issue Upp-al said he’s been hearing about is education.

“Findlay Creek is a grow-ing area and there is a short-age of schools,” he said.

“There are a lot of young families and education is their prime concern.”Uppal said June 12 is a turning point for Ontario.

“People will get a choice between safe hands and risky tactics – jobs versus cuts,” he said.

Liberal candidate hopes to represent his adopted home

CHEO celebrates turning 40 with Doors Open Ottawa By Jenna Guilbeault

This year, the Children’s Hospital of Eastern Ontario will be celebrating its 40th year of service to children and youth, and what better way to celebrate than to open its doors to the public during the Doors Open Ottawa event June 7 and 8.

CHEO is a world-renowned and cutting-edge pediatric care facility that specializes in research and training and is one of the few independent pediatric hospitals in Canada.

CHEO is located at 401 Smyth Road in Ottawa, but they extend their services to communities in Eastern Ontario, Western Quebec, Nunavut and parts of Northern Ontario through their numerous partnerships with organizations such as Ronald McDonald House, Roger’s House, Children’s Miracle Network and Compassionate Friends of Canada.

CHEO is a teaching hospital that also offers medical support to other doctors in Ottawa institutions and this, in turn, strengthens the quality of care that is offered to children and youth.

Each year, CHEO provides more than 6,000 admissions, 7,000 surgeries and 170,000 clinic visits. It houses one of the busiest pediatric emergency rooms in Canada, treating more than 65,000 children and youth a year. CHEO offers

a wide range of specialized programs for youth that focus on disorders such as early language developmental disabilities and autism.

CHEO’s is celebrating its 40th anniversary this year by opening its doors during Doors Open Ottawa. You can join a guided tour and get a unique behind-the-scenes look at the hospital’s cutting-edge research facilities, surgical suites and the simulation lab.

Eva Schacherl, from the communications department at CHEO, says that there will be lot of interesting things for kids and adults to see. There will be child-friendly activities, and parents can experience the human library, where they can sit down one-on-one to talk with a heart surgeon or a brain surgeon, for example. Schacherl says there is a superhero theme within the hospital and she hopes that those who visit CHEO will support that theme – dressing up as superheroes encouraged!

Doors Open Ottawa takes place this year during the first full weekend in June. It celebrates the historically and architecturally significant buildings in the Ottawa area by opening their doors, free of admission, for the public to see.

News - If people don’t want the “slash and burn” tactics of the Conservatives or the “overspending” coming from the Liberals, the Green Party is a viable option, local candi-date Gordon Kubanek said.

Kubanek, who lives in Kars, has run in Nepean-Carleton for the last three provincial elec-tions. This will be his last run at a seat in Queen’s Park.

Kubanek is an engineer turned high school teacher.

He advocates sensible and sustainable solutions.

“You don’t have to throw money at problems to solve them,” he said.

For example, energy prices.Kubanek said the Liberal

Green Energy Act took a lot of criticism. “But that’s not be-cause there’s anything wrong with green energy, it was the practice of giving the contract to Samsung,” he said, adding grants and subsidies for solar panels would help residents lower their consumptions and ultimately, their costs.

He also said changing con-struction standards for heating

effi ciency would slowly force the construction industry to work towards energy and heat conservation.Kubanek heats his home with geothermal en-ergy and has solar panels on his roof.

Kubanek advocates urban intensifi cation and the use of public transportation. He said urban sprawl, if allowed to continue, will bring with it higher costs for public transit.

He said the Green Party is fi scally conservative, despite the perception that it’s far to the right. “We want to provide a sustainable future for the next generation,” he said.

And that includes staying a fi nancial course that would fo-cus on reducing the defi cit.

“We are kind of like old, red Tories,” he said, adding he used to be a member of the Reform Party. Kubanek’s community involvement and activism extends from helping groups in which his daughters have been involved with, such as the Greely Players and local sports teams, to demonstrating and sharing with others how to live off of the land. He is working extensively in collab-oration with other beekeepers to change government laws re-garding insecticides and other farming practices that kill honeybees.

Kubanek said he would like to see voters veer away from strategic voting and instead mark an “X” on the ballot of the party that most represents their views. “I think a lot of people vote to keep someone out, rather than who they want to see at the legislature,” he said, adding the Greens are fo-cusing the resources on getting Ontario Green Party leader Mike Schreiner elected to his riding in Guelph and increas-ing their voter base.

News - Becoming a super-hero is just an app away.

The May 30 launch of the web application allows you to become a virtual superhero in keeping with the Children’s Hospital of Eastern Ontario Foundation’s Be a SuperHE-RO for CHEO campaign this, and raise funds for patient care at the same time.

Users of the Supe-Yourself app, designed by Ottawa-based company Soshal, can name, design and customize a superhero avatar modeled on themselves. These images can be shared on Facebook

or tweeted with the hashtag #hero4cheo.

For every person who cre-ates a superhero avatar, an anonymous donor, whom the foundation says is a crusader, will contribute $10 to the CHEO Telethon, which airs on CTV on June 7 and 8.

“We’re so excited that this CHEO Foundation friend, who wishes to remain anonymous, has stepped up to support this innovative campaign,” Jacque-line Belsito, foundation vice-president of philanthropy and community engagement, said in a statement.

“Big or small, everyone has some sort of superhero within them, and our crusader’s sup-port of the Supe-Yourself app means that everyone can bring out their super powers while helping the kids at CHEO.”

The foundation has issued a challenge for the creation of 1,000 virtual superheroes, to help raise $10,000 for the fundraiser.

The Supe-Yourself app is available at hero4cheo.com. For more details about the application and the telethon, please visit cheofoundation.com.

News - Bad habits tend to accumulate like drops in a bucket.

To reveal bad habits that are common today, and how to turn them around to make

positive changes in our lives, Dr. Janet Tamo, a consulting dentist for Crest and Oral-B, plus fi tness expert, Kathleen Trotter, met recently to share their thoughts.

“Inactivity throughout the day is one of the habits I see most often,” said Trotter. “Many people drive to work, search for the closest park-ing spot to the entrance door

or sit in front of the TV for hours after sitting behind a desk all day.

There are so many quick and easy ways to integrate activity into your day without

sacrifi cing valuable time with family and friends.”

Trotter recommends inte-grating exercise into your rou-tine with these examples:

• Bike to work instead of driving.

• If it’s safe to do so, park at the end of the parking lot and walk.

• Opt to take the stairs in-stead of the elevator. If it’s too much, get off the elevator ear-ly and walk at least one fl ight.

• Do some resistance exer-cises with an exercise band or exercise ball while watching TV.

Adopt a Shelter Cat MonthJune is a busy month at the Ottawa

Humane Society. Not only is it the time of year the shelter starts experiencing seasonal overcrowding, but it’s also Adopt a Shelter Cat Month, an occasion that’s close to our hearts.

All OHS cats, from the youngest kitten born at the OHS to the 15-year-old surrendered to the OHS, are shelter cats. They’re all different, with unique personalities. Some are purebred, some are beautiful mixes. Some love to play with toys, others love to cuddle, while many love to do both.

The one thing they have in common: the need for a forever home.

This month, to help more homeless kitties find that perfect match, anyone who adopts an adult cat from the 245 West Hunt Club Rd. shelter or an OHS Pet Adoption Location will be entered to win a brand new iPad, courtesy of Petsecure pet insurance. Qualifying adopters also get up to 25 per cent off at the Buddy andBelle Boutique that day, excluding food.

However fantastic the take-home gifts, they aren’t the only bonus

for adopters who choose to bring home an OHS cat. All pets from the OHS come spayed or neutered, microchipped, with six weeks of insurance from Petsecure, and with a health guarantee. That’s an estimated $625 in services that are included in the cat adoption fee.

If you’ve thought about bringing home a new cat friend, June is a great time of year to do it and the OHS is the place to go. Celebrate Adopt a Shelter Cat Month by making a homeless cat’s dreams come true this month.

Petra (A165207) is an affectionate little kitty looking for a home to call her very own.

This petite one-year-old tabby makes a sweet chirping sound when she’s happy to see you and will run to greet you at the door when you come home. She is very social and loves to spend her days taking cat naps and being around people. She has a gentle demeanor and would be great in a home with children.

For more information on Petra and all our adoptable animals, stop by the OHS at 245 West Hunt Club Rd. Check out our website at ottawahumane.ca to see photos and descriptions of the animals available for adoption.

2014 Zoning Review – Phase 2Notice of Public Information Sessions

Why? In 2013 City Council approved new Offi cial Plan policies to create a more liveable Ottawa. To put these policies into action, the Zoning By-law needs to be updated. In some review areas, changes to existing Secondary Plans will also be made to permit the zoning updates to proceed.

How will this affect me?Zoning affects how land can be used on both public and private properties. It regulates things like types of housing, shops, schools, industries, as well as building heights and building densities. The right zoning will make sure our streets and neighbourhoods develop in ways that encourage vibrant, liveable places for all to enjoy.

Zoning changes will provide greater certainty for residents, developers, businesses and others, about what to expect when it comes to future development in the review areas.

Learn more about the project and view maps of the review areas at ottawa.ca/zoningreview.

Notice of CompletionQueen Street Renewal

(From Bronson Avenue to Elgin Street)Environmental Study Report

The City of Ottawa has completed an Environmental Assessment of the Queen Street Renewal Project. The City has identified the need to renew Queen Street to upgrade the streetscape and pedestrian environment in anticipation of the commencement of the Confederation Line service. The streetscape/surface renewal on Queen Street between Bronson Avenue and Elgin Street is being coordinated with the construction of the Confederation Line light rail transit (LRT) through the downtown area. The Recommended Plan will provide one shared-use travel lane in each direction with turning lanes where essential, while providing maximum space for wide sidewalks including opportunities for on-street parking, loading and/or taxi space.

The City has planned this project under Schedule C of the Municipal Class Environmental Assessment. The Environmental Study Report (ESR) has been completed and by this Notice is being placed in the public record for review. Subject to the comments received as a result of this Notice and receipt of necessary approvals, the City intends to proceed to detailed design. The implementation timing has not yet been confirmed however construction activities will be coordinated with the Confederation Line project.

The ESR is available for review at the following locations:

Lifestyle - With each bite, indulge in the burst of luscious ripe Ontario strawberries, crisp me-ringue and creamy ice cream. Enjoy this cool dessert on a hot summer evening with friends and family.

Preparation Time: 10 minutes Cooking Time: 18 minutes Chilling Time: 30 minutes to two days Serves: 4

INGREDIENTS

• 2 cups (500 mL) quartered strawberries • 1/2 cup (125 mL) granulated sugar • 3 cups (750 mL) vanilla ice cream • 2 meringue nests, coarsely chopped (about 1-1/2 cups/375 mL) • 1/2 cup (125 mL) fi nely chopped dark chocolate • 4 large strawberries • 4 fresh mint leaves

PREPARATION INSTRUCTIONS

Place large glass bowl or metal bowl in freezer.In medium saucepan, over medium-high heat, combine quartered strawberries and sugar, cook stirring until sugar starts to dissolve and juice begins to release, about three minutes. Reduce heat to medium; simmer for 15 min-utes or until strawberries can be crushed easily with back of spoon. Transfer to shallow heat-

proof dish; refrigerate for 30 minutes or until cool. (Sauce can be made two days in advance and refrigerated.)Remove bowl from freezer; add ice cream. Working quickly, coarsely break up ice cream. Add meringue, chocolate and 1/2 cup (125 mL) of the strawberry sauce; lightly combine ingredients. Scoop one-quarter of the ice cream mixture (approx 1 cup/250 mL) into each bowl; top each with 1 tbsp (15 mL) re-maining strawberry sauce. Garnish with whole strawberry and mint leaf. Serve immediately.Tip: For a make-ahead idea use Mason jars, seal with the lid and store in the freezer. Sim-ply top with a little strawberry sauce and serve on a moment’s notice.

News - Ontario will re-quire immunizations to be up to date before children return to school in September.

The province has updated the immunization require-ments for the 2014-15 school year to include new manda-tory immunizations and dose requirements that align with changes to Ontario’s pub-licly-funded immunization program.

All students attending pri-mary or secondary school this fall will need to have proof of

immunization against three more diseases:

• meningococcal disease.• whooping cough.• and – for children born in

2010 or later – chickenpox. This is in addition to up-

dated dose requirements for tetanus, diphtheria, polio and mumps immunizations.

Requirements for measles and rubella immunizations have not changed.

Parents should take the following steps to ensure that their children meet the new

immunization requirements:1) Double check with their

doctor, nurse practitioner or local public health unit to make sure their children’s immunization records are up to date.

2) Make sure that their child’s updated immunization record has been reported to their local public health unit.

Once the school year be-gins, parents will be contact-ed by the local public health unit if catch-up immuniza-tions are required.

Following Ontario’s immu-nization schedule and main-taining immunization records are important steps to prevent the spread of these diseases in our communities.

These diseases can spread easily in schools and can lead to serious health consequenc-es especially in children, the elderly and people with weakened immune systems.

QUICK FACTS

• Thanks to vaccines, in-

fectious diseases that were the leading cause of death worldwide 100 years ago are now the cause of less than fi ve per cent of all deaths in Canada.

• Vaccines for meningo-coccal disease, whooping cough and chickenpox are publicly funded and part of Ontario’s routine immuniza-tion schedule.

They are also consistent with current clinical guide-lines for best protecting On-tario’s children from disease.

• The Ontario government currently publicly funds 21 different (routine and non-routine) vaccines through its provincial immunization pro-gram that protect against 16 diseases.

Parents of children who require an immunization ex-emption should speak to their local public health unit.

Children who are exempt from immunization are at increased risk and may be re-moved from school during a disease outbreak.

Ontario adds to immunization requirements for next school year



Doors Open Ottawa commemorates First World WarBy Jenna Guilbeault

As a way to commemorate the 100th anniversary of the First World War, Doors Open Ontario has chosen WW1 as the theme for the 2014 Ontario-wide Doors Open event season. Doors Open Ottawa, which takes place June 7 and 8, is proud to feature several buildings that tell a story regarding this important time in Canadian history.

The Carleton Masonic Lodge, located at 3704 Carp Road in Stittsville, was originally built as a Presbyterian church in 1904. The great fire in 1920 damaged much of the interior of the building. When the church was restored, it became the village of Carp’s Masonic Lodge in 1925. The lodge is characterized by its original stained glass windows and beautiful oak furniture, which was used by Le Havre, a military Masonic lodge located in France and opened by the Allied Forces during WWI.

Constructed in 1879, the Cartier Square Drill Hall is a military training facility nestled between the Rideau Canal and neighbouring Ottawa City Hall, which occupies land that was once an open field used for military exercises. The Cartier Square Drill Hall has been a landmark in the heart of Ottawa for over a century. Its Officers’ Mess was the scene of Sir Sam Hughes’ (Minister of Militia and Defence at the time) declaration of war by Canada in 1914, commencing our participation in the Great War.

“Given that it has been at the centre of military mobilization and training, and used by a wide variety of civic organizations as part of their activities, we felt it should be shared with the Ottawa public,” says Major Gregory Ptolemy of the Cameron Highlanders of Ottawa (Duke of Edinburgh’s Own).

During the summer months, it is from here that the Ceremonial Guard departs to perform

the Changing of the Guard ceremony on Parliament Hill. It is also home to the Cameron Highlanders of Ottawa (Duke of Edinburgh’s Own) and Governor General’s Foot Guards, reserve infantry units trained to augment the Regular Army during times of war and peace.

The financial services of Diane A. Gagne operate from a Queen Anne Revival style home built in 1905 in Sandy Hill. It had previously been used as the Italian Embassy, the national headquarters of the Victorian Order of Nurses, and was once the family home to WWI aviator Billy Bishop. Bishop, born in 1894, was decorated as Canada’s top flying ace after being credited with 72 victories. This house features a spacious foyer, beautiful woodwork and mouldings, and eight fireplaces. Exterior details include a steep, cross-gambrel roof, decorative brickwork, classically inspired porches and use of slate, stone and corbelled chimneys.

Pinhey’s Point Historic Site, located on Pinhey’s Point Road in Dunrobin, depicts upper- and middle-class rural life in the 19th century. In honor of the 100th commemoration of WWI, Pinhey’s Point will be featuring an exhibit highlighting the journey of Charles Pinhey and his fellow soldiers of the 38th Ottawa Battalion from Bermuda to the Somme. Margot Reid, a member of the museum committee, added, “Charlie and his battalion’s service in Bermuda and France are explored in this exhibit through his letters home, photographs, documents and personal artefacts”.

Doors Open Ottawa, which takes place annually during the first full weekend in June, offers residents and visitors the opportunity to explore the city’s architectural gems, history and culture free of charge.

LANSDOWNE PARK

Since long before I ran for City Council in Capital Ward in 1991, people had been asking what we should do with Lansdowne Park.It was a historical landmark, on that everyone could agree. But should it be preserved as it is? Should it be renovated? Should it be torn down? These were some of the many questions that were asked about Lansdowne, without answers, from before my time as a Councillor right up until only a few years ago. It was clear that the status quo at Lansdowne was not sustainable. A crumbling stadium surrounded by a sea of asphalt was an eyesore for the city especially when the beautiful Aberdeen Pavilion sat in the middle of it. But what to do?This council inherited a plan that would see Lansdowne

work and we worked hard to not only improve it but also to get shovels in the ground and implement it so that years of indecision would be behind us.Some people raised concerns about our plan for Lansdowne and I agree that neither the process by which it came about nor the plan itself is perfect. But perfection is the enemy of getting things done. Our plan means a significant improvement and revitalization of Lansdowne and I am thrilled that it is almost complete. On July 18th we will welcome the Ottawa REDBLACKS to the

football to return to Ottawa is now over and I can’t wait to be there to cheer on our team as they push for the Grey Cup.

whose season is already underway as they do our city proud in the North American Soccer League. In August, we will open the urban park at east end of Lansdowne that will see three times more green space (18 acres) than was previously there, four times more trees, 7.2 kilometres of sidewalks and pathways, and five pieces of public art. Lansdowne Park had always been a misnomer because there had never been much park space in it. Now, there will be ample space for people to have a picnic, throw a

and restaurants both familiar and new will make up this site that will serve to bring people to Lansdowne year-round in addition to providing great options for before and after a game or concert.

Lansdowne and for our city. It has been a long time coming but I am happy that Lansdowne Park will once again be a place that Ottawa residents can be proud of. Watch for the official park opening where we will pay tribute to Lansdowne’s past with a community celebration on Saturday August 16.
