HEATHER LUCENTE

Great day for a skateA group of Constance Bay locals take advantage of the smooth-as-glass ice in front of The Point Beach on Jan. 2. The colder temperatures have created a perfect skating surface, with about 50 residents hitting the frozen water on Friday for fun and a few games of shinny.

News - As the new year kicks off, we look back at some of the biggest

stories to happen in West Carleton during the fi rst six months of 2014.

Certain events and moments stick out, such as MPP Jack MacLaren’s sombre win in Carleton-Mississippi Mills while the Liberals swept to a majority across the province; and the heated municipal election campaign in ward 5 between the two front-runners – thanks to their stances on D-5-5 and

land severance. The community said goodbye to an

institution as Pinto Valley Ranch shut its barn doors to the public, becoming a private boarding facility; and we said hello to the new, larger Quyon Ferry once it was fi nally launched after nu-merous problems and delays.

Residents throughout West Car-leton made headlines for their accom-

plishments, ideas and concerns, high-lighting what makes living and work-ing in this community so great.

Read on for the ups and downs in the fi rst half of 2014, and check back next week when the Review profi les the biggest stories from July to De-cember.

News - Plasco has missed its third deadline to prove it has funding, put-ting its deal with the city for a waste-to-energy facility at risk.

The city’s environment commit-tee will meet on Feb. 17 to get more information. It is concerned the com-pany was not able to prove by Dec. 31 that it had fi nancial backers for the technology. It was the second ex-tension the city had granted Plasco in order to prove the facility could be-come a reality.

When the city signed a contract with Plasco in 2011, council hoped it would make Ottawa the fi rst city in the world to use the company’s plasma gasifi cation technology.

News – She nearly let him go on his own. If she did, he may have wandered outside moments earlier to come face to face with a daytime shoot-ing that initiated a rash of gang violence across the city during the holiday season.

Leslie Osborne, a Metroland Media-East sales manager, was with her son and daughter, and her niece and sister-in-law at Tanger Outlets shopping for Boxing Day deals. It was about 3:30 p.m.

Osborne and the girls, both 8, were near the register at the back of Ardene. About a dozen panic-stricken people ran into the store, ushering in about 20 minutes of chaos around them. The young saleswoman told people to stop running in-side the store. She reassured Osborne that nothing out of the ordinary was taking place.

But the swarm kept fi ling toward the back of the store.

“‘Somebody’s shooting outside. Get down,’ one of them said,” Osborne recalled. “So I grabbed the two girls and shoved them to the ground.”

She hadn’t heard the gunshot, let alone seen a gunman or victim or any indication of the source of the turmoil.

That made it even scarier, she said. Without a focal point - like a body clearly laid out - the television-like predictability was absent. Osborne didn’t know what was happening, but she knew it wasn’t good.

And she knew her 10-year-old son was not at her side.

Owen had asked not to go to Ardene, a shop of ‘boring girls’ stuff’. His mom considered letting him go on his own to Reebok, but was saved from having to make a decision by his aunt, Amy Raf-

ter, who also declared Ardene too boring.The lad and his aunt left Reebok for Adidas. It

was there they heard the solitary shot just outside the doors. Had they walked out a minute earlier, who knows?

The shot was loud and distinct; no mistaking what had happened: one man shot another in the foot.

Owen witnessed the aftermath.“A girl ran in to the store. She hugged a friend

and started crying. My aunt saw a bullet shell on the ground,” Owen said.

The next 15 minutes or so had the mothers texting one another, three stores apart. Dozens of people hiding behind retail shelves and racks were doing the same.

At one point sales people at both stores un-locked the door and said those who were not frightened “are allowed to run,” Osborne said.

The mothers agreed to make a dash for the car. Osborne still didn’t have a handle on what was happening. Was someone outside waiting to pick off people who ran? She decided to assume Tanger security knew the coast was clear.

All fi ve met at the car and were out of the park-ing lot just as police pulled in.

“I was visibly shaken. The steering wheel was shaking,” Osborne said. “We went for a beer.”

Rafter’s daughter Halle cried almost the entire time they were in hiding, reacting either to the chaotic scene or her aunt’s sudden move to have them all duck down to the fl oor.

Osborne’s daughter Lia had the polar opposite response. She told anyone who would listen every detail she could recall. Her son, Owen, while not frightened to go back, spent the entire ordeal hold-ing his aunt’s hand.

“And he’s not a hand-holder,” Osborne said, chuckling. “I have to go back. I’ve still got a $75 gift card.”

ARREST

Ottawa police arrested a 26-year-old Ottawa man at his east-end home on Dec. 30 in connection with the shooting at the Tanger mall.

He is facing numerous gun-related charges including carrying a concealed weapon, discharging a fi rearm with an attempt to wound and possession of a prohibited fi rearm without holding a li-cense and registration certifi cate.

In the wake of Ottawa’s 49th shooting in 2014, College Coun. Rick Chiarelli says the city should consider hiring more offi cers to fi ght gang violence.

“We haven’t had a net increase in the number of police offi cers since 2010, despite the fact the population of the city has grown signifi cantly,” he said. “The police chief just needs to tell us whether he needs three or four offi cers more. It would only cost $3 per house-hold for an entire year.”

Chiarelli added that Ottawa police Chief Charles Bordeleau should not worry about Mayor Jim Watson’s direction of limiting this

year’s tax increase to two-per-cent. The police budget for 2014 was $288.6 million.

“We need to make sure we provide resourc-es to police and agencies to secure safety and community identity,” said Chiarelli, whose ward was rocked by two of the latest shoot-ings. “We are still a very safe city, but there are times like this when we need to nip things in the bud to make sure we stay that way.”

But Kanata North Coun. Marianne Wilkin-son said the record number of shootings, one of which impacted her ward, doesn’t necessar-ily demand an increase in the police budget.

“It’s not a major budget issue,” she said. “Just throwing money at things doesn’t always work.”

The public needs to step up and report crimes to the police, she said.

“We need the public to help with this,” she said.

“The police can’t be everywhere,” said Wilkinson. “If they see suspicious activities, it needs to be reported, even if it’s fairly minor to start with because minor things can escalate.”

West Carleton-March Coun. Eli-El-Chan-tiry, the chair of the Ottawa Police Services Board, said he’s focused on ensuring the police have the resources they need and he’s open to a discussion on budget increases if the chief feels it’s warranted.

“I want to make sure they are provided with the resources they need to win this battle,” he said. “If something changes and (Bordeleau) needs more resources, obviously we’re open for discussion.”

The tipping point would be if the health and safety of the community are at risk, El-Chan-tiry said, but he said he’ll let the chief decide when and if that happens.

Since the three shootings during the Christ-mas holidays, the Ottawa Police Service has doubled the size of its guns and gangs unit, increasing the number of offi cers available for investigative work from nine to 19, said acting police Chief Jill Skinner.

Some of the investigators come from the city’s drug unit, who focus on gang members involved in the drug trade.

“We’re going to pool all the resources to-wards the guns and gangs (unit),” El-Chantiry said.

The redeployed offi cers will bring local ex-pertise to the guns and gangs unit, El-Chantiry said.

FOUR SHOOTINGS

Police arrested a 26-year-old Ottawa man on Dec. 30 in connection with a shooting at the Tanger Outlets mall in Kanata on Boxing Day, where a male in his 20s was shot in the foot.

On Dec. 29, at around 2:30 a.m., a man was shot in the back near the intersection of Bank and Slater streets, and later that day an-other male was shot near the intersection of Bloomsbury Crescent and Regency Terrace in Nepean.

Shots were fi red on New Year’s Eve on Elmira Drive in Nepean just a few hours before the city rang in 2015. No one was injured.

So far, all of Ottawa’s gang-related shoot-ings have been all targeted, but one day an in-nocent bystander could get hit, said Skinner.

“That’s my concern that keeps many of us up at night,” said Skinner. “The possibility ex-ists that a member of the public could get hit, so that’s why we’re increasing our efforts the way we have, dramatically increasing our ef-forts.”

Police need to focus resources in the com-munities with the most gang-related violence, said Skinner.

“We need to be where the criminals are, and that’s where we’re going to be.”

Ottawa police will hold an internal meeting later this month to come up with medium- and long-term strategies, said Skinner.

“We know that much of the violence is caused from the drug trade,” she said. “So mak-ing sure our drug units and our street crime unit and our guns and gangs unit are working col-laboratively, and are not in silos, that’s key.”

Once the police service comes up with a long-term strategy, Chief Charles Bordeleau will meet with the Ottawa Police Services Board.

One of the problems in dealing with a gang-related shooting is that the victim often chooses not to talk to the police.

“It continues to be a challenge for us,” said Skinner. “When we’re talking about gang vio-lence, that is part of the sub-culture, not to talk to police.”

In the meantime, focusing on redeploying resources is smart, El-Chantiry said. Police have to be more strategic and focus on intel-ligence and ensuring the police make it diffi cult for known gang members to commit crimes.

Former Kinburn resident honoured for volunteerismDerek [email protected]

News – A man well-known for his volunteer work with the Carp Fair and many other orga-nizations has received a special commendation from the federal government.

Stuart Nicholson, a former Kinburn area res-ident who now lives in Castleford, was one of eight people receiving a commendation from Renfrew-Nipissing-Pembroke MP Cheryl Gal-lant in Cobden Jan. 3.

Gallant gave out the glass-plated awards prior to the annual New Year’s Levee she co-hosts with area MPP John Yakabuski.

The award evolved out of the Queen’s Jubi-lee award where hundreds of area volunteers

were nominated but only a handful selected. Gallant said recognition, usually a surprise

to the recipient, should be given to those who help build their community.

“We thought it was a good idea to give simi-lar attention and praise to those who don’t ex-pect any praise,” Gallant said. “They are the unsung heroes of our communities.”

Nicholson was given his award for “his self-less acts of kindness toward others,” which was read out as he mounted the podium where Gal-lant awaited.

“He puts aside his own personal commit-ments to volunteer his time at Castleford Unit-ed Church, Carp Fair, Food Grains Project, the Pakenham Curling Club, the Horton Commu-nity Centre, Shawville Cemetery, the annual

Blue Grass Festival in Horton.“He is a most humble, unrecognized gentle-

man who performs many good works,” con-cludes the description.

Nicholson is the father of renowned sledge hockey star Todd Nicholson. The proud father was convinced he was at the event for another award presentation to his son.

“It came as a complete surprise,” Stuart said. “I enjoy (volunteering). It’s a social thing for me. I get as much enjoyment out of it as any-thing.”

Todd was pleased the family could keep it a

secret and noted his dad is a worthy recipient. “I think it’s great. A real surprise for him,”

said Todd, a member of the International Para-lympic Committee board.

“He doesn’t think twice about helping out any member of the family or somebody else. He’s always been a huge supporter of the com-munity and he’d be the last to ask for anything in return.”

Other recipients were Dave Bennett, Clay Dawdy, Kathy Haycock, Gwen Greenstock. Blanche Mirault Ducey, Judith Ritchie and Jean Maves.

DEREK DUNN/METROLAND

Stuart Nicholson (second from right back row with his family) was surprised to receive a volunteer award from MP Cheryl Gallant, believing he was attending the annual event as a supporter of his renowned son, Todd, a former paralympian.

CHARITABLE GIVING WITH LIFE INSURANCE POLICIES - A WIN-WIN FOR BOTH FAMILY AND CHARITIES

By Shawn Ryan, CFP, TEP Partner and Senior Insurance and Estate Planner Scrivens Insurance and Financial Solutions

Life insurance is a popular, practical way to make a signifi cant gift to CHEO. Your donation will be wisely administered through investments which will provide a stable source of income to CHEO for years to come. There are three main methods you can gift life insurance: by making a bequest of the proceeds of a life insurance policy through your Will; donating the policy during your lifetime at fair market value; or by naming CHEO as benefi ciary and remaining as policy owner.

Here is a scenario where a mother owns a family business and wishes to gift the shares to her adult children through a provision in her Will. She wants to eliminate capital gains taxes of the shares payable at her death. The taxable capital gains reportable on the deemed disposition of shares on death is $500,000 and tax owing on this amount is $230,000 (base on a 46% marginal tax rate).

She also wants to make a sizeable donation to her favourite charitable organization, but doesn’t want to reduce her estate assets.

Given the options mentioned above, she decides that the most viable solution is to

purchase a permanent life insurance policy for $500,000 and donate the proceeds to charity through her Will.

This is a win-win for both her family and the charity. She will own the policy during her lifetime and name her estate as policy benefi ciary. She will direct that a gift in an amount equal to the life insurance proceeds be paid to a charity named in the Will. The charity will receive the lump sum amount equal to the insurance proceeds upon her death. A tax receipt issued for 100% of the donation by the charity will qualify for a tax credit to be used in her fi nal tax return. This credit has completely eliminated the tax liability on the shares at death and

the estate value is preserved. In this case, premiums for the life insurance policy are paid with a relatively small percentage of the funds that would otherwise have been used to pay taxes owing.

The use of life insurance in the context of charitable gifting at death will appeal to those who want to reduce or eliminate taxes at death and/or have a strong desire to make a larger bequest to one or more charities. This should be considered in the bigger context of planned giving options available to donors both during their lifetime and at death.

If you are interested in fi nding out about how you can leave a CHEO legacy, please contact Megan Doyle Ray at

[email protected] or (613) 738-3694 cheofoundation.com

SNOW CLEARING MAINTENANCE STANDARDS

When a snowstorm begins, City crews clear snow on high priority roads, main arterials and collectors first and then move to the residential roads. The City has developed maintenance standards and they are used to prioritize how frequently roads are plowed, how ice is controlled and how snow is removed. City crews plow residential roads to a snow-packed surface. When necessary, materials will be applied to keep roads safe.

All high priority roads and arterials (like Carp, Dunrobin and March Roads) will start being cleared as accumulation begins to the treatment standard of bare pavement within 2 to 3 hours. The time to clear snow from residential roads (like Charlie’s Lane where I live) starts when there is snow accumulation of 7 cm or more and will be cleared within 10 hours from the end of snow accumulation to a treatment standard of snow packed.

With approximately 882 km of roads in West Carleton-March, City crews cannot possibly plow all our roads at the same time. The maintenance standards in place work well and keep residents and vehicles moving in the most efficient way possible. More information on snow clearing standards are posted on ottawa.ca.

STAY SAFE ON THE SNOWMOBILE TRAILS

Every year we hear stories of snowmobile accidents and mishaps that could have been prevented. The Ottawa Police note that snowmobiling fatalities often involve alcohol, unsafe ice, excessive speed and riding outside trails and rider abilities.

Accidents are preventable if safety precautions are followed. Machines should be carefully checked before heading out and riders should have the required permits and insurance. Proper gear should be worn, including an approved helmet. Snowmobilers should stay on approved trails and keep within the speed limits posted. Make sure to carry a cell phone if possible. Riders travelling across ice should also wear a floatation device or a floater suit.

Pedestrians and snowmobilers alike need to be respectful of each other. Snowmobilers should slow down when passing pedestrians. Pedestrians should move off to the side of the trail to allow snowmobiles to pass by safely. As well, dogs must be leashed at all times while on the trails.

Thanks to the West Carleton Snowmobile Trails Association (www.wcstai.com) for maintaining our trails for everyone’s enjoyment.

Plasma gasifi cation takes left-over residential garbage and uses a novel process to turn it into electricity.

Now, after the third deadline passed with no proof of fi nanc-ing, city manager Kent Kirkpat-rick sent a memo to city council-lors on Jan. 2 to remind them of the terms of the contract, which stipulates that council can now vote to terminate the deal if it wishes.

It also means the environment committee will receive a report Feb. 17 detailing the results of a call for expressions of interest from companies offering other waste technologies the city could shift its focus to, Kirkpatrick wrote in the memo.

The situation might actually be a “blessing in disguise” for the city, said the newly appoint-ed chairman of the environment committee, Capital Coun. David Chernushenko. It will give city council an opportunity to pause, review what the best options are and ensure it moves forward with the best possible option.

“What’s a nicer story than a local technology, local business, solves the world’s waste prob-lems starting right here in Ot-tawa. That would be a fabulous story,” Chernushenko said.

“Is it true good to be true? At this point, I’d have to say, prob-

ably. But that doesn’t mean there is nothing good in it. There might still be a silver lining.”

Plasco’s failure to meet its deadline means the city can seri-ously take a look at alternatives, which may prove more promis-ing, Chernushenko said. While the city would have wasted a bit of time on Plasco if it decides to abandon that project, the landfi ll still has another 15 to 20 years of capacity left.

And unlike most infrastruc-ture, waste technologies can ac-tually become more affordable as time goes on due to advances and innovations, Chernushenko said, so even if the city cancels the Plasco contract, that time might not have been “wasted.”

“It’s a fascinating moment for us to be able to pick the ‘best of,’” he said.

Chernushenko said he is open to that option being Plasco, but he said if the company were to suggest any different terms for its deal with the city, he would want a whole new contract drawn up and voted on by the city.

“If they are the best option on the table at this time, we would be silly, just out of spite, to reject them if they are the best option,” Chernushenko said. “On the other hand, we can quite happily say, ‘We gave you many chanc-es, we were very patient and now we’ve found something better.’”

A representative from Plasco

was not available by press dead-line.

When former CEO Rod Bryden was last in front of the environment committee in Au-gust 2013, he said he was con-fi dent the fi nancing would come through because the fi rms Plasco was in talks with have a view to-wards the potential global mar-ket for the technology.

The Ottawa facility is expect-ed to cost around $200 million for Plasco to build. The com-pany has invested $350 million towards developing the technol-ogy, Bryden said in 2013.

The city’s side of the deal would see it pay a tipping fee of $82.25 for each tonne of trash delivered to Plasco for process-ing. That would amount to $9.1 million per year.

In 2012, Bryden told the West Carleton Review that if the city and Plasco don’t end up proceed-

ing with their partnership, Plasco could always take the “modules” of equipment it planned to use for its Ottawa plant and re-pur-pose them for other facilities it has in the works in China, Cali-fornia, the United Kingdom and the Bahamas.

Before agreeing to the last deadline extension in 2013, the previous environment committee head, former River Ward Coun. Maria McRae, said she was “anxious” to see Plasco succeed. But she supported Moffatt’s mo-tion to look at other options in the event that the Plasco plant was not viable.

“Essentially I see this as the ‘patience is running out’ mo-tion,” McRae said of Moffatt’s proposal in 2013. “We really want to support Plasco, but if we don’t see movement … (it’s) so we’re not lagging behind a year and a half from now.”

FILE

The city’s environment committee will hear on Feb. 17 what the status of a proposed waste-to-energy gasifi cation plant is after Plasco missed its third deadline to prove to the city that it could fi nance the project.

It has been nice, over the holi-days, to read cheery predictions for Ottawa’s future.

In not too many years, spurred by the completion of light rail and various other major projects, the city will fl ourish, fi nd its identity and become the place we had always wanted it to be.

It’s a very nice thought, but you wonder whether the proverbial horse has left the barn. The premise of our future greatness is that we will build a glorious downtown, our dependence on the automobile will diminish and we will overcome the threats to the liveability of modern urban life. What a lovely thought, but it is diffi cult to keep it in mind as you drive past the latest giant shopping outlet in the western suburbs. Doesn’t

seem like that’s going to reduce our car dependency. Doesn’t seem like consumers are going to ignore all that discount merchandise and take light rail to go downtown.

And all that new housing that’s be-ing built in the west and south – does that mean car dependency is going to diminish? The problem is our city decision-makers have preached new urbanism while the making decisions that support the old urbanism. The old urbanism is mindless expan-

sion and more and bigger shopping complexes out there too. Will light rail change that? Maybe, but it will take more than that to get people out of their cars. Can downtown fl ourish? Perhaps. But it will take more than light rail to make it happen.

Good things are on the horizon. It looks like LeBreton Flats might emerge from its cocoon. The renova-tions at the National Arts Centre are encouraging. Lansdowne Park may work better than its critics have feared. But, on the other hand, how do you get to Lansdowne if you don’t live within walking distance?

City government can probably solve such problems, but that is not its biggest challenge. The biggest challenge is to get the private sector going in the same direction as city

policy. What the private sector has done in the last 20 years is build subdivisions and big box centres in the suburbs and the same time as it closes down movie theatres downtown. If there is to be a new and better Ottawa, the private sector needs to sign on.

It’s true that other levels of government could be more helpful. As a property owner, the federal government has been an obstacle to the development of Sparks Street, for example. And high property taxes have made it diffi cult for small busi-nesses. Even a thriving downtown will be of little use if the only stores in it are chains.

Somehow, local government has to encourage commercial diversity. The combination of high taxes and increasing rents has put some promis-ing neighbourhoods in danger of be-coming nothing more than restaurant strips, spotted with chain stores.

The private sector has a chance to step up in the development of LeBreton Flats and the Ottawa River shoreline. And the various levels of government, managing that develop-ment wisely, have a chance to make urban dreams come true.

Ottawa Senators owner Eugene Melnyk needs to double down in his bid to build a new arena at LeBreton Flats.

Last month, the Ottawa Sports and Entertainment Group announced it wanted to build a new arena on the prime piece of downtown land, administered by the National Capital Commission.

Melnyk is gambling his proposal is just what the NCC is looking for in its latest attempt to redevelop the area, turning it into a jewel of the city’s crown.

Every wager has its winners and losers.To some the idea is a welcome one, especially area

businesses that could expect to receive an economic boost from the team’s presence, as well as fans living in the city’s south and east ends, who will enjoy a much shorter drive to the arena. For some, the trip to the arena will be much quicker after the city com-pletes its fi rst stage of light rail construction.

The reaction in Kanata, and to a lesser extent West Carleton, has been less than happy – losing the team will hurt business and be less convenient for hockey and concert-goers.

But even if his bid to move the team is successful, how will Melnyk ante up the money need to build a new National Hockey League arena, the cost of which hovers around half a billion dollars? Hopefully he’s not expecting taxpayers to bankroll his ambi-tious plan, which will include many potential costs including buying the land and building a new arena.

We suggest Melnyk doubles down, and ask the NCC for permission to build a casino at LeBreton Flats, which will operate as a cash cow for the Na-tional Hockey League franchise.

Let Melnyk pay market value for the NCC land at LeBreton. Let him pay for every brick and every ounce of mortar needed to raise new Sens’ home rink. But also give him the ability to offset those costs with a casino near the city’s core – one that can compete with the Hull casino for visitors’ dollars.

The guaranteed income that would fl ow from a casino would no doubt ensure the NHL team has a long future in Ottawa.

Build a rink and they will come. But if you build a casino, they will also spend a lot of money.

Editorial Policy

To the Editor:Re. “El-Chantiry vice-chair of most ‘power-

ful’ committee’. Jan. 1.Firstly, congratulations to Councillor Eli El-

Chantiry for his appointment as vice-chair of the Finance and Economic Development Com-mittee (FEDCO), the City’s most ‘powerful’ committee.

The councillor has, over his many years on city council, displayed leadership qualities and been able to bring others around to his way of seeing things for the benefi t of all. These at-tributes will serve him well around the FEDCO table.

However, it continues to amaze and baffl e me that there are still so many people in this

Ward lusting after de-amalgamation 14 years after the event. One only needs to take a short drive down Dunrobin Road to see one or two huge signs calling for the return of Carleton County.

It may be worthwhile to remind the people who miss that form of governance that it was the Province of Ontario, and the Conservative government of the time, that dealt the death blow to Carleton County by replacing it with regional government in 1969.

In your article, Coun. El-Chantiry talks about being reminded, whilst going door-to-door, that he was doing “too many things in the City,” about our Ward “being rural” and having “nothing in common with the urban wards.”

I applaud the councillor for his response to these platitudes by reminding constituents about the services we share: police, fi re and road repair and maintenance, to name just a few. If he had come to my door, I would have greeted him warmly and congratulated him on how well he balances the many facets of a dif-fi cult job.

Coun. El-Chantiry is right, the Green Bin issue was not rolled out well. This, and the is-sue of whether or not to restore weekly garbage pick-up, are issues the new Environment Com-mittee will need to tackle early in 2015.

The expansion of the Carp Landfi ll Site makes it important for the councillor to sit on the public advisory committee, to help ensure

that Waste Management Canada complies with all the requirements of the Environmental As-sessment. This is no small task indeed!

I am unashamedly a supporter of Councillor El-Chantiry because he has demonstrated that he can perform the job properly. He has a deep understanding of the local issues, and a vision for the future.

It is clear to him, as it is to many in this Ward, that we are the City of Ottawa. Just consider that a large part of the land mass of this Ward comes to rest on the shores of the Ottawa River making West Carleton a natural, geographic termination of the city.

We are only partly rural, folks, so why not learn to love it as it is.

M. Jeanne BeauregardDunrobin

To the Editor:The Findlay fundraiser held

in November at the Constance Bay Legion was an amazing success. The attendance was out of this world.

We raised a lot more than our expected goal and they are still receiving support. It truly was old home week seeing everyone Tom hasn’t seen in years.

Here is a copy of their re-sponse as Tom begins his treat-ment of radiation and possibly chemo.

“We would like to take this time to thank this community of West Carleton and beyond. To each and every friend, neigh-bour and family, we can never tell you how much your love and support has meant to us.

“This whole experience has been such a shock and over-whelming time for us and for you to reach out to us the way you have when we needed it most.

“We can’t describe how what you did has made such an im-pact on our lives fi nancially but more important emotionally. Tom was touched beyond words when this all start-ed and it really made a difference to his recovery all around.

“To update you all on his condition, he will be starting radiation soon and possibly chemo. But on a positive note, his doctors have been blown away by the strides he

has been making in his recovery from surgery.

“We are attributing it to all the love, support and living in this amazing community. Thank you, thank you for everything.”

Love the Findlays: Tom, Shelly, Shane and Kyle

JANUARY• No candidates signed up to run in

West Carleton-March on the fi rst day of campaigning, Jan. 2, but at least one declared his intention. “I am running,” Eli El-Chantiry told the Review. He of-fi cially signed up in May.

• When it was announced in early January that undefeated Thomas Oost-huizen was out of the Alvarez boxing bout scheduled for Jan. 18, Dunrobin’s Andy Gardiner wasted no time offer-ing his services to face the World Box-ing Association-ranked number-two-in-the-world prospect.

Gardiner hung in much longer than expected against Eleider Alvarez. The undefeated Alvarez won the 10-round unanimous decision over Gardiner in a tightly scored match: 99-91, 96-83 and 97-93.

• The candidate who fi nished second in the 2010 municipal election was the fi rst to offi cially sign up to run in West Carleton-March. James Parsons, who secured almost 15 per cent of the vote – compared to incumbent Coun. Eli El-Chantiry’s 77 per cent – announced his intention to campaign on road reha-bilitation and tax stability.

• The national conversation that

began after the tragic fi re at a Quebec nursing home fi ltered down to the local level. Many asked if the seniors’ com-plex in Carp, The West Carleton, is as safe as it could be after a nursing home in L’Isle-Verte, Que. was consumed by fi re, killing 14 residents. Thousands of seniors’ residences across the country meet code without a sprinkler system, including the non-profi t apartment known as The West Carleton.

Manager Allison Jamieson said there are important differences: The West Carleton isn’t a nursing home, but a seniors’ apartment. Residents have greater mobility and are generally in better physical condition.

• Any candidate who planned to at-tack incumbent Coun. Eli El-Chantiry for not living in the West Carleton-March ward had to fi nd a new tactic. El-Chantiry bought a house in Carp and he and wife Maha were set to move into the newer part of the village in April.

• The Diefenbunker was among the 28 Canadian tourism businesses – and the only one from Ottawa – selected to join the Canadian Tourism Com-mission’s 2013 Canadian Signature Experiences collection for its 11 Steps to Survival tour - Evacuation Distance: Paranoia & Preparedness.

• Calabogie Ski Racing Club’s smallest competitors tackled their fi rst races Jan. 25 and 26, with the un-der-12 boys competing against 61 rac-ers. Carp’s Sam Alexander smoothly pulled off a victory, topping the fi eld by four seconds.

FEBRUARY• Constance Bay residents were told

they’d fi nally have a chance to see what their expanded Sandhills commu-nity centre would look like at a March meeting. The architectural fi rm NORR was chosen by the city in January and had begun designing a bright and en-ergy-effi cient structure to be added to the Constance Bay Community Cen-tre, announced Ian Glen, president of the Constance and Buckham’s Bay Community Association, at its annual general meeting on Feb. 2.

• West Carleton Minor Hockey teams had a great night with the Otta-wa 67’s. Two Midget B teams kicked things off with an exhibition game on the Canadian Tire Centre ice. Peewee A then got to watch the 67’s warm up from the hometown bench and IP B entertained the crowd with a mini pre-game. It was end-to-end excitement as the little players took to the big ice surface.

• The Carp Road Corridor is one

of the few locations in Ottawa where a medical marijuana facility can open. To prevent the dubious prospect of grow ops sprouting up across the city, staff suggested at planning committee that a zoning bylaw limit facilities to general and heavy industrial areas. Eli El-Chantiry wasn’t giddy over having to deal with the issue.

• He grew up singing “South side sucks” at CFL games and cheering on the Roughriders; then later the Ren-egades. And the dream was always in the back of his mind. So when ru-mours started to swirl and the phone rang moments after the free agency period opened, West Carleton’s Kevin Scott was confi dent he had made the league’s newest team: the Ottawa RedBlacks. The linebacker now has 35 career special teams tackles in six CFL seasons – 10 of those tackles as a RedBlacks player.

• Ever used the term “If I live to 100?” For Dr. Agatha Sidlauskas, founder of Venta Preparatory School in Carp, that is no longer an ‘if.’ On Feb. 5 Dr. Sidlauskas, affectionately known as Doc to all the staff and stu-dents at Venta Prep, celebrated her 100th birthday.

• There were a few new winners from West Carleton at the People’s Choice Business Awards gala, held Feb. 20, and just as many repeat win-ners. West Carleton winners included: the Dave Smith Youth Treatment Centre, Carp Farmers’ Market, The Cheshire Cat, Yoga & Tea Studio and West Carleton School of Performing Arts.

MARCH• Four concepts for a new commu-

nity up March Road were presented at a public meeting, with more than 130 residents turning out to view and com-ment on the proposals. The residential neighbourhood planned for the area is bordered by Old Carp Road, Windance and Celtic Ridge crescents, Murphy and Nadia courts, Houston Crescent and the rail corridor, and anticipates about 3,000 residential units.

• The fi fth annual coffeehouse at Huntley Centennial saw a packed au-dience learn about the rich arts and cul-ture of India while raising money for a school there. The show, held March 5, featured more than 100 intermediate students and raised more than $1,000 to build a school in Rajasthan.

• Kids light fi res in the Carp Hills. Snowshoers and cross country skiers are in confl ict with snowmobilers. Few seem to know or care where public lands end and private starts. Hikers are in the line of shotgun-wielding hunters. Trails are too numerous and growing. ATVs are ripping up environmentally sensitive parts such as Blueberry Hill and the Carp Barrens. All as develop-ment encroaches.

“Right now all kinds of people are going up there. It’s an issue that needs resolution,” Greg Leblanc told the Carp Memorial Hall crowd of almost 100 on March 5. Leblanc is with the newly-formed Friends of Huntley Highlands, a group exploring ways to preserve the Carp Hills.

• A group opposing a new landfi ll on Carp Road accused Ontario’s Min-istry of the Environment of dismissing community concerns and having a bias in favour of Waste Management’s pro-posal for the new dump. An email from a ministry offi cial dated June 2011, says residents “exaggerated” and “lied” when fi ling odour complaints about the currently closed landfi ll on Carp Road. The emails were obtained by the coali-

tion of citizens groups fi ghting the new landfi ll through a freedom of informa-tion request.

• Ottawa Public Health is hoping that offering more opportunities for residents to test their wells will prompt them to take drinking water safety se-riously. Only about three per cent of residents whose homes are served by private wells use the free testing of-fered by the city.

• Police were called in to investigate after an Ottawa man who was reported missing was found dead in Kinburn on March 12. The body of a 50-year-old male was found near the Highway 417 overpass at Kinburn Side Road, said Const. Chuck Benoit, spokesman for the police. The death was not consid-ered suspicious.

• A promise for more studies before tossing the political hot potato back to the federal government was Premier Kathleen Wynne’s response to grow-ing concerns over plummeting bee populations. Wynne, who is also the minister of agriculture and food, issued a statement on March 19 endorsing the Ontario Bee Health Working Group’s report “promoting” farmers’ use of non-insecticide treated seeds and “en-couraging” newer technologies that

reduce the risk on pollinators. • A boy who discovered a fi re in his

family’s garage in Carp March 23 was rushed to hospital after attempting to contain it. The 13-year-old, who lives at 109 Topol Lane just off Huntmar Drive, discovered the fi re and then tried to put it out with an extinguisher. He was rushed to CHEO to be treated for smoke inhalation. The family of fi ve was displaced and an estimated $1 million in damage was done.

• A kayaker with West Carleton con-nections was one of four nominees for Ontario’s female athlete of the year. Madeline Schmidt is one of the fi nal-

ists in the 2013 Ontario Sport Awards. She is the daughter of Bevan and L.A. Schmidt of West Carleton and a mem-ber of the Ottawa River Canoe Club.

APRIL• Rising hydro costs and unpredict-

able billing had Jack MacLaren joining others at a rally in front of the energy minister’s constituency offi ce April 4. The Liberal government didn’t seem prepared to enforce a lowering of hydro rates in reaction to the protest at Bob Chiarelli’s offi ce.

• More than 150 residents, several from West Carleton, crammed Os-

goode’s community centre to decry a longstanding water-quality policy that they say is destroying the rural way of life. The issue erupted after the presi-dent of the Carleton Landowners’ As-sociation, Shirley Dolan, used the open mic session at a February rural affairs committee meeting to request the city ditch water-testing requirements she says were never meant to be applied to single-lot severances.

The issue became a hot-button of contention during the municipal elec-tion campaign in ward 5.

A DAY AWAY


• West Carleton’s Todd Nicholson will be inducted into the Ottawa Sports Hall of Fame in the athlete category this May, the organization announced on April 4. “It means quite a bit,” said Nicholson. “As much as I’m accepting the award, I realize I wouldn’t have been able to do this without the sup-port of the community, and my family, my friends.”

• A number of fundraising events were held throughout the community to help offset young Liam McKnight’s medical bills. Liam suffers from Dra-vet Syndrome, a rare form of epilepsy for which there is currently no cure.

• Adrian Moyes and Shawn Mc-Cauly could never have guessed, when taking music class at their rural elementary school, that one day they would return to create a recording stu-dio in that very same room. The new business in the former Fitzroy Centen-nial School, called Levels Jam Space and Recording Studio, is among the few studios that supplies almost every-thing a musician could want.

• Five years ago, Lynne Rowe had the idea of developing a wildlife sanc-tuary in Dunrobin. She almost gave up on her dream after years of submit-ting applications for licensing, going

through a court case for unlawfully keeping wildlife, and thousands of hours and dollars spent bringing her land up to code.

She was ready to toss in the towel, but she didn’t, and this spring the Min-istry of Natural Resources granted Rowe approval to care for wildlife.

• St. Paul’s United Church in Carp has been revitalized with a fresh ener-gy thanks to the new musical director. Ryan Phelps joined the congregation and has worked to bring a more upbeat and dynamic sound to the choir.

• Students at St. Michael School in Fitzroy are working to publish a book by youth, for youth, dealing with teen mental health. The goal of Teen MINDS (Mental Illness Needs Differ-ent Solutions) is to create a book fi lled with anecdotes, stories and images from North American youth.

• A fi re broke out in the Zamboni bay at the Erskine Johnston Area in Carp causing $20,000 in damage on April 16. The building was closed at the time and there were no staff on scene. There was minor smoke dam-age throughout the arena.

• The Diefenbunker scared up top honours at this year’s Ottawa Tourism Awards gala April 24 for its partner-ship with Haunted Walk Ottawa, the Bytown Museum and Ottawa Jail Hos-

tel. The Cold War museum was nomi-nated a second time in the Partnership of the Year category for its work with One World Dialogue and the Building Peace exhibition.

• As the lights went up on the Rural Root stage on April 30, the moment marked an important milestone in West Carleton community theatre.The spring comedy, Things My Mother Taught Me, kicked off the start of Ru-ral Root’s 10th anniversary season.

MAY• Orienteering Ottawa was readying

the site of the North American cham-pionships with a competition in West Carleton. About 100 participants came out to the EcoWellness centre on the Carp Ridge for the sport that requires mapping and compass skills to navi-gate from point to point in diverse and usually unfamiliar terrain.

• One thing local Liberals and Pro-gressive Conservatives can agree on is their surprise at the NDP withdraw-ing support for the budget last week, resulting in an election call. Carleton-Mississippi Mills MPP Jack MacLaren repeated over and again during an in-terview that the proposed budget in-cluded “nothing new.”

“fitness for the family”

Lifestyle - While it may

seem like spring has just

sprung, summer will be here

before you know it. According

to the education experts at Ox-

ford Learning, that means that

it’s time to start thinking about

summer learning plans.

“Summer learning is a criti-

cal – and often overlooked

– part of students’ learning.

By planning for summer learn-

ing now, parents will help

their children avoid the sum-

mer learning brain drain,” says

Nick Whitehead, founder and

CEO of Oxford Learning.

He offers these fi ve reasons

why planning for summer

learning is so important:

1. Summer is going to be

here soon. Spring may have

just begun, but before long,

students will be studying for

exams and handing in their fi -

nal term projects, which means

that it’s not too early to think

about what kids are going to be

doing this summer.

2. Summer can undo what

children are learning right

now. Without maintaining

learning momentum and study

skills over the summer break,

students easily forget every-

thing they’re working hard to

learn right now, which means

that next year, students need

to repeat the same workbooks

and materials they are learning

right now.

3. Summer can have an im-

pact on how children learn next

year. After a summer off, it can

take kids up to three months

to get back into the swing of

learning. That represents a

huge amount of wasted learn-

ing opportunities, and it means

that students are not up to their

potential from as early as the

fi rst day back to class.

4. Kids want to learn in the

summer. Research in summer

learning studies shows that 56

per cent of students want to be

involved in a summer program

that helps them keep up with

summer schoolwork or prepare

for the next grade.

5. Summer programs fi ll up

fast. Most programs are already

accepting applications and tak-

ing reservations for summer

enrolment. Schools, camps,

and supplemental tutoring fa-

cilities are no exception.

Reasons to be thinking

about summer now

Lifestyle - Specialized sum-mer camps are now allowing young artists to develop their passion on an intensive basis.

Summer art camps offer classes which are both educa-tional and lots of fun. Children can develop their skills and broaden their interests while being supervised by compe-tent instructors, all in an enter-taining atmosphere.There are many different

facets to the world of visual arts. At summer camp, young people can learn about kinds of media that they have fewer op-portunities to explore at home or school, such as China ink, pastels, charcoal, oil paint, and clay. They acquire theoretical notions and draw inspiration from the great masters of the art world. Some art camps even organize an exhibit at the end of the camp so that friends and family can see all the cre-ations.

Theatre is a great way to break out of one’s shell. At summer camp, children will be able to set aside their shy-ness and learn to express themselves in public. They will improve their

memorization skills and they will also be able to study dif-ferent acting methods.Dramatic art includes many

behind-the-scenes activities, and during theatre camp chil-dren will be introduced to many of them, including lights and sound, costumes, makeup, and stage design.The performing arts are

also a great way for children to

discover their talents, develop a work ethic, and build self-esteem. All branches of the performing arts teach students about teamwork.At a performing arts camp,

children are given the oppor-tunity to work on a project throughout their stay and then have the very rewarding expe-rience of presenting it in front of family and friends.

• Offi ces and storefronts should be coming to Carp Road. The move to increase the variety and type of businesses allowed along the corridor is an attempt to boost the economic opportunity in the area. One business owner who came to speak at the May 5 meeting of the city’s agriculture and rural affairs committee said the zoning changes are just what he needs in order to expand.

• Eli El-Chantiry registered for the municipal election on the very day, May 7, the writ was dropped for the provincial election. It was the best way to give the clearest possible answer to those in the Carleton-Mississippi Mills Liberal and PC parties that he wouldn’t run as their candidate. This is the fi rst election since entering municipal politics in 2003 that El-Chantiry signed his regis-tration papers with a Carp address.

• Twenty years ago, Ron Sparks was part of a taekwondo showcase in Constance Bay. An in-structor at a Kanata martial arts school, he brought his demonstration team into West Carleton; there was enough initial interest that Sparks decided to launch his own school in his community. Now, he has more than 100 students enrolled in classes at the Constance and Buckham’s Bay Community Centre. Sparks TaeKwon-Do celebrated its 20th anniversary on May 13.

• They cycled, ran and walked. And when all was said and done, the Ottawa Public Library

came out the big winner. There were 734 people registered for the 18th annual Diefenbooker Clas-sic and $20,553 was raised – to be shared between the three West Carleton library branches.

• Waste Management began the rezoning pro-cess to allow for development of its proposed West Carleton Environmental Centre at the Carp Road landfi ll site. The Environmental Assessment has received provincial government approval, but

further steps have to be taken before the landfi ll becomes a reality.

• Gordon O’Connor’s offi ce made it offi cial. The Carleton-Mississippi Mills MP won’t run in the next federal election. Constituency manager John Aris confi rmed rumours that circulated for months. O’Connor, the riding’s MP since 2004, will step aside ahead of the 2015 fed-eral election. “He’s decided it’s time. It’s nothing to do with anything else except that he’s decided it’s time,” Aris said.

• The opening of the Quyon Ferry was pushed back to June 13. The mod-ernization project of the ferry, which travels from Fitzroy Harbour to Quyon,

was launched two years ago. “We have overcome several hurdles, with electrical supplies still our main delay,” said Don McColgan, the owner and operator, on the ferry’s website. “Nobody wants to cross the river more than we do.”

See RADIO, page 14

It’s the end of an era for Pinto Valley Ranch and the beginning of another for the Jardine family. Tracey (pictured) and Ben Jardine, the third generation to run the ranch since its inception almost six decades ago, made the diffi cult decision to close the stables to the public in order to spend more time with their three children. June 1 was the last day open before the stables became a private facility.

JUNE• St. James Anglican Church in

Carp – celebrating its 125th anniver-sary – participated in Doors Open Ot-tawa June 7-8, inviting the commu-nity to view the church and cemetery grounds.

• The four candidates vying for votes in Carleton-Mississippi Mills were grilled with a number of tough questions at the Stewart Community Centre in Pakenham. The all-candi-dates debate was hosted by the Arn-prior Region and Lanark chapters of the Ontario Federation of Agricul-ture.

Moderator Andrea McCoy-Nap-erstkow posed questions on hydro, Almonte’s Enerdu project, rural/

farming taxes and more to candidates John Hansen of the New Democratic Party, Liberal Rosalyn Stevens, Pro-gressive Conservative Jack MacLar-en and Andrew West of the Green Party.

• Avid cyclist Brendan Gorman, the 1996 nation junior cycle cham-pion, threw his hat in the ring to be-come West Carleton-March’s next city councillor. He was interested in making the city more bike-friendly, growing transit, and protecting the environment.

• Carp’s Kristie Lance has lived her own Cinderella story, taking home the prestigious Fashion De-signer of the Year award during the Richard Robinson Grande Premiere fashion show, even though two years ago, she had no sewing or fashion

production experience. That didn’t stop the second-year graduating stu-dent from showcasing seven origi-nal pieces in her fi nal collection at the fashion show held at the Casino du Lac-Leamy in Gatineau – even though only four counted for school marks.

• The highest profi le candidate to ever challenge Eli El-Chantiry roared into the race for councillor of West Carleton-March. Former 106.9 per-sonality Jon Mark, host of The Gonzo Show, said the incumbent lost favour with constituents over the severances and other rural issues.

• A man died following a house fi re off March Road. Ottawa fi refi ghters responded to an emergency call from neighbours of 170 Grey Fox Dr. CPR was performed on a 49-year-old man who was completely wet on a deck near an above-ground pool. His wife was at his side. He was pronounced dead at the scene. About 10 minutes later, fi refi ghters discovered a fi re in the home’s basement. It was soon brought under control.

• It was no contest in Carleton-Mississippi Mills as Jack MacLaren handily won the riding with 47 per cent of the vote in the June 12 provin-cial election. But the win didn’t make it any easier for Progressive Conser-vative incumbent to swallow another

Liberal majority in Ontario.Ottawa Mayor Jim Watson wasn’t

expecting a majority government to be elected, but he said the Liberal win bodes well for the city’s major projects. The mayor, a former Liberal provincial cabinet minister, said he is confi dent the government will make good on their promises to fund joint projects.

• A father of two young children, a veteran of a two tours overseas, a Harbourite gone too soon: Neil Pa-quette, 33, died following a single ve-hicle crash late last Friday night. “It was just a senseless, stupid twist of fate,” said sister-in-law Kim Dough-ty. “We’re all really heartbroken.”

Paquette lost control of his car be-fore it slammed into a tree on Log-gers Way near Galetta Side Road on June 20. He was the lone occupant. The car rolled into a water-fi lled ditch before Ottawa Fire Services ar-rived on scene. They could not revive Paquette, who himself was a newer member of Fitzroy’s volunteer fi re department.

• The Quyon Ferry opened for business after numerous delays. The new vessel was launched June 21. The most recent delay was a problem with the ferry’s motors, said Don Mc-Colgan, the owner and operator. The new larger ferry is 120 feet long and has no maximum vehicle height.

Unusual birds spotted during Boxing Day CountLifestyle - If asked to pick

my favourite day of the year, without hesitation I would de-clare: “Boxing Day!”

Now, that isn’t because re-tail stores offer great bargains. Nor is it because of another day off work.

Dec. 26 is my favourite because it brings the annual Pakenham-Arnprior Christ-mas Bird Count.

This year’s Christmas Bird Count (CBC) was my 49th consecutive one.

My first Count (which I remember as if it took place yesterday) was in 1966. Back then it was called the Paken-ham CBC.

Edna Ross started that

Count in 1925, and she was its organizer/compiler until 1970. That year the Count’s name was changed to its current title to reflect a shift of the count’s

centre (each Count takes place in an area defined by a circle with a 7.5-mile radius) to in-clude more of the area covered by an even earlier CBC; the Arnprior CBC was initiated in 1913 by Charles Macnamara, and he ran it until the late 1930s.

Near perfect conditions dominated Boxing Day this year. The wind was weak, permitting the 32 participants to hear distant birds. Tem-peratures ranged from plus 3 at 4:30 a.m. (when I started listening for owls) to plus 6 by mid-day, making this my warmest count ever.

By first light, Ryan Zim-merling and I were roaming the Nopiming Game Preserve near Marshall Bay. I love that area because it contains mature forests, a creek and a large marsh.

It was in the cattails that we found our best birds. At daybreak, a Song Sparrow re-sponded to our calls. Then a Winter Wren, only the second recorded over the 101-years of the Count, was heard calling. It never showed itself but its double “kip-kip” notes were diagnostic.

Several hours later we came across another Winter Wren. This one behaved dif-ferently, sitting up in plain view in response to our calls. But even though it was half a

kilometre from where we had encountered the first, it was in the same marsh, so it could have been the same bird.

However, 20 minutes later we relocated the first wren in the same location where we had found it, and it still refused to show itself. We concluded that there were two wrens.

Winter Wrens were not the only rarities encountered that day. Also tallied were a Long-eared Owl near Cedar Hill (only the second one re-corded on the Count), a fe-

male Northern Pintail in the Madawaska River at Arnprior (a third record), two Golden Eagles near White Lake, two Northern Saw-whet Owls near Blakeney, and two Red-bellied Woodpeckers visiting feeders near Pakenham.

The astounding tally of 28 Bald Eagles blew away the previous high count of 15.

But there were disappoint-ments. Evening Grosbeaks present on the previous day were nowhere to be found on Count Day. A Great Blue

Heron spotted days before also eluded the counters. To rub it in, it showed up the day after Boxing Day.

Still, it was a most suc-cessful count. By day’s end nearly 5,000 individual birds comprising 56 species were tallied.

And even better, there are now fewer than 365 days un-til the next Christmas Bird Count!

Canadian mammals expert to speak at next naturalists talkCheryl Morris

Community – On Thursday, Jan. 15, the Mississippi Val-ley Field Naturalists (MVFN) will present the fourth lecture in their current series based on the theme ‘When A Tree Falls In The Forest, Does Anyone Hear?’

The event will be held in the Almonte United Church at 7:30 pm. Guest speaker for the evening will be author and biologist Donna Naughton.

Naughton has recently retired from a career span-ning 38 years at the Canadian Museum of Nature where she worked as a research and collections assistant. The presentation will be entitled ‘Changes To Canadian Mam-

mal Fauna Due to Human In-fluence’.

“At a time when the natural environment is more threat-ened by human activity than ever before, the decisions we make in the next few decades could be key to species and habitat survival.” - Naughton from her book The Natural History of Canadian Mam-mals, published in 2012.

Humans have changed the mammalian fauna in North America in major ways at least three times.

Some changes are still on-going.

Naughton will talk about these extinction events and discuss how global climate change fits into this picture.

She will discuss which

mammals existed in the past in eastern Ontario, which mammal groups are current-ly living in this region, and which ones are likely to still exist here in the future.

She will also say a few words about her book, The Natural History of Canadian Mammals. Naughton spent 11 years studying and draw-ing mammals to include in the book.

The visually stunning vol-ume has been called a defini-tive guide to the 215 species of mammals in Canada.

The book outlines the story of each of Canada’s mammals through detailed text, colour-ful photos and informative drawings and artwork.

The beautiful 800-page book is truly the culmination of a long and inspired career.

In a past interview with North Country Public Radio,

Naughton states: “One of my jobs in my 37 years at the mu-seum was to answer questions from the public. So anybody who phoned or emailed with a mammal question got sent to my desk.

“So I had a pretty good idea of what the Canadian public wanted to know and how they would like it answered … you get a feel for what they really want to know.”

Refreshments and discus-sion will follow the talk. There is a non-member fee of $5.

For more information, con-tact MVFN’s program chair Gretta Bradley at [email protected]. Visit mvfn.ca for all MVFN events, member-ship and other club informa-tion.

DONNA NAUGHTON

A figure from Donna Naughton’s illustrated book The Nat-ural History of Canadian Mammals.

News - With two snowmobiles having fallen through the ice since the start of the new year, the OPP and the Ontario Federation of Snowmobile Clubs are reminding snowmobilers that no ice can be considered 100 per cent safe.

Fortunately, the two drivers and two passen-gers managed to get out of the water and make it

to safety. The OPP note that is a “rare and fortu-nate outcome.”

When ice forms early, it is likely not yet thick, strong or stable enough to support much weight. This also applies when waterways experience periods of thaw or rain, which can cause ice to weaken suddenly.

Snowmobilers warned to beware unsafe ice

Kids love to dance!When your kids just ‘gotta dance’, the City of Ottawa offers a variety of classes and activities that will keep their toes tapping and body rocking. Check out the Recreation eGuide online at ottawa.ca and choose from the countless options offered.

Dancing is great exercise for kids of all ages. For younger children, it’s a fun introduction to physical fitness that also helps with coordination, balance, flexibility, strength, stamina, discipline and memory. They will also learn to follow instructions and develop an appreciation for different styles of music.

Through programs such as Music and Movement and Creative Movement, toddlers as young as three can explore their natural response to music and rhythm while expanding their creative scope and gaining confidence in their abilities. These programs provide a fun and casual approach to practicing basic and fine motor skills and learning about body awareness and space.

Classes in pre-ballet, jazz and hip hop will teach your tiny dancer the fundamentals and techniques of specific dance styles. It’s a great introduction to more formal and focused dance classes. A performance for an admiring audience of moms, dads and family members completes the session.

Older children can choose from a variety of dance styles. Whatever strikes their fancy; we’ve got it - including Broadway, contemporary and hip hop. Our classes cover a gamut of styles made popular by television dance shows.

Have a child interested in learning a bit of everything? A dance mix class allows your child to generate his or her own choreography and experiment with a variety performance styles. Classes such as acrobatic dance combines dance steps and combos with free- floor gymnastics. Give your child the chance to express, move and create through dance! Our dance classes are fun, affordable and conveniently located in your neighbourhood.

Winter classes start soon!Our great selection of winter classes can be found online at ottawa.ca/recreation, or visit your favourite recreation facility where knowledgeable and friendly staff will help you discover your next adventure. You can also call 3-1-1 for more details.

Sandman shares winter magic with young MaryMary Cook

Lifestyle - “Why is it, Audrey?”As always, when I had to get an answer to an

important question, I went to my sister ... so much older and wiser than I was. I had been thinking about it for a long time, and that night, as we sat around the old pine table, having gone through Eaton’s catalogue once again, I had to have the answer, once and for all.

I had asked Audrey why the Sandman only came to me, and why only in the dead of winter. And why, when Mother looked over at me, she would nod, and say, “here comes the Sandman again.”

I would look around me, seeking this creature, who it seemed, singled me out from the rest of the family, and without my even realizing it, said it was time for bed.

Audrey closed the catalogue, draped her arm around my shoulders, and said that after a certain age, the Sandman was no longer needed. He only came to very young children, and the reason he only came in the winter time, was that the days were shorter, and besides, he didn’t like the hot summer nights, and so hid away in the farthest regions of the world where it was much cooler.

This all made perfect sense to me. Since I pre-ferred winter too.

And then Audrey, who Mother often said had the patience of a Saint, reminded me of all the times I fell asleep before anyone else in the house, and she said it was be-cause the Sandman knew exactly when I was getting tired.

She told me how she often had to nudge me in church on Sundays, when the minister deep in his sermon droned on. And she said that happened in the winter because there was nothing to look at outside the window by our pew, but in the summer I could see the birds, and sometimes a squirrel in a tree.

And she said the Sandman would come, and unbeknownst to me, would tap me on my eyelids, and off I would go.

I asked her how come I always fell

asleep in the flat-bottom sleigh when we were coming home at night from a neighbour’s, or from something going on at school or our church.

Well, Audrey had a perfect explanation for that too. She said, the Sandman loved the cold weath-er, and the frosty nights, and the sleigh bells, and the sound of the horses hooves crunching in the snow, and he had so many little people to visit, he would come to those who fell asleep the fastest. Well, that was me alright!

I would be barely tucked into the sleigh, under the big fur blanket, with a heavy scarf wrapped around my head, when I would drop off, and waken only with the gentle nudge of my sister that we had arrived at our old log house on the farm.

And so often when it was time for us to play host to the Saturday night house party, I would stay awake as long as I could, listening to the fiddle music, the table being pounded by eu-chre players, and the sound of Father playing the spoons.

If we were at someone else’s home for the Sat-urday night house party, the youngest of us would play upstairs in one of the bedrooms, and end up laying cross-wise on a bed, and, like a miracle, I would waken the next morning in my very own bed, never waking while being dressed and car-ried out to the sleigh.

My sister Audrey said the Sandman would

have touched the eyelids of all of us, putting us to sleep, and then like limp dishrags, and unaware, we would be carried to the sleighs, undressed at our own homes, tucked into bed, none the wiser.

I asked Audrey why I never felt the Sandman touching my eyelids. Why didn’t I see him?

And my older and much wiser sister would ex-plain that the Sandman was just like Santa Claus.

We knew he existed, didn’t we? And yet we didn’t see him, or hear him, or feel his touch. Well, she said, it was the same with the Sandman.

And so like Santa Claus who I knew existed, but who I never saw, the Sandman was simply unseen but was there putting me to sleep when I least expected it. I put it all down to just plain old Renfrew County magic.

Sports - It was an exciting weekend for the West Ottawa Ringette Association when two of their U-9 teams, the Wild Cats and the Polar Bears, made it to the finals of the Arnprior Ringette Tournament.

After the round-robin Dec. 5-6, three teams were tied, but only two could move on to the finals. The tie-breaker came down to goals for and against, putting the West Ottawa teams, who have several West Carleton

players, in the top two spots.The final game between the

two West Carleton teams was a close one, but the Polar Bears managed to score with 1:42 left to take the lead. They were able to hold on for the win.

Trillium Line Extension to Riverside South and the

Ottawa Macdonald-Cartier International AirportEnvironmental Assessment Study

Open House

The City of Ottawa has initiated an Environmental Assessment Study to develop an approved plan to extend the City’s existing diesel-powered Trillium Line (O-Train) service from Greenboro Station to Riverside South (Bowesville Road), as well as a branch line to the Ottawa Macdonald-Cartier International Airport and new or relocated stations at Gladstone Avenue, Confederation Heights and Walkley Road.

You are invited to attend one of the following sessions:

The study is being undertaken in accordance with the transit project assessment process as prescribed in Ontario Regulation 231/08, Transit Projects.

The primary study area includes the existing Trillium Line corridor between Bayview and Greenboro Stations, the current Walkley Yard maintenance and storage facility, and the proposed southern extension from Greenboro Station to Riverside South (Bowesville Road) and the Ottawa International Airport.

The plan will include options to serve the growing communities of Riverside South and Leitrim, the Airport and adjacent lands, as well as new or relocated stations at Gladstone Avenue, Confederation Heights and Walkley Road on the existing Trillium line. The plan also allows for a future conversion to electric light rail transit (LRT) technology.

The Trillium Line extension is one of three environmental assessment studies underway as part of Stage 2, the City’s plan to extend the benefits of rail to residents further east, west and south that will add 19 new stations and 35 kilometres to our LRT network.

Accessibility is an important consideration for the City of Ottawa. If you require special accommodation, please call 3-1-1 or e-mail the project lead below before the event.

If you are not available to attend the Open House or would like additional information, please visit the study web site at ottawa.ca/trilliumline or direct your comments and questions to the contact person below. The Open House presentation material will be posted to the study web site.

Gardening with your nose

Community - For many gardeners, the visual display a garden offers is the key to what they plant and where, creating beautiful beds of co-lour, texture and height.

But what about thinking with your nose?“Scent can really add another layer to your

experience in the garden,” says master garden-er Judith Cox.

“It’s all very well to see a rose - roses are beautiful and they’re soft and all the senses are involved with a rose – but to have that scent come at you; it invokes memories, it invokes the desire to pick it and to try new things, you can make potpourri out of it. Scent can just ex-pand your experience.”

As the gardener at Saunders Farm in Mun-ster, Cox was inspired to think about the effect of scent more than a decade ago when she got to know the blind brother of the farm’s owner.

“I had an opportunity to close my eyes in the garden,” she says with a laugh.

She’ll bring the results of her inspiration to a talk at the West Carleton Garden Club meeting Tuesday, Jan. 13.

Emphasizing heritage and old-fashioned pe-rennials, Cox will discuss various plants you can incorporate into your own garden to add scent. (Many of the plants in the wedding gar-den at Saunders will figure prominently.)

Cox will also talk about scent through the seasons.

“There’s scent all year round,” she notes, citing things like pine and spruce that people associate with Christmas.

She also brings some flowers inside. “I use a lot of scented geraniums to get me through the winter.

“There’s a lot of scent inside and outside through the winter time and into the bulbs in the spring, perennials and herbs and vegetables and all sorts of things all the way through the year.”

But isn’t there a concern for those who are sensitive to fragrances?

Not at all, she says. “It’s when you distill the scent ... and then you start adding the chemi-

cals; that’s when you start getting your sensi-tivity.”

Cox’s talk takes place at the next meeting of the West Carleton Garden Club on Tuesday,

Jan. 13 at the Memorial Hall in Carp, 3739 Carp Rd. The meeting starts at 7:30 p.m. and there is a nominal fee of $5 for non-members.

For details, visit wcgc.ca.

Ottawa realtors help 29 charities

ENNIO MARCANTONIO/SUBMITTED

Shopping the market helps food bankCarp Farmers’ Market manager Ennio Marcantonio presents Pam Ross of the West Car-leton Food Bank with a cheque for $2,092, all of which was donated by the market’s gen-erous customers throughout the 2014 season. “As a farmers’ market, we exist solely due to our loyal customers who support us every single Saturday by continuing to buy local. It means so much to us that you continue to support not only our local producers, but local families in need as well,” Marcantonio said.

News - Members of the Ottawa Real Estate Board (OREB) contributed about $82,000 to the Ontario Realtors Care Foundation this year, and were able to help out 29 shelter-related charities in the Ottawa area last month in time for the holiday season.

The funds were raised through the board’s annual charity golf tournament, the “dollar per member per month” campaign, and the RONA Card program, where a percentage of all mon-

ey spent by OREB cardholders, is donated to the Foundation.

The Realtors Care Committee received 29 grant applications from local shelter-related charities. The grants are a way of recognizing their valued work in the community. The 2014 Ottawa-area grant recipients are as follows:

• Ancoura;• L’Arche;• Boys and Girls Club of Ottawa;

• Bruce House ;• CP and District Youth Centre;• Chrysalis House (WOCRC);• The Door Youth Centre;• Eastern Ottawa Resource Centre;• Habitat for Humanity;• Harmony House; • Harvest House;• Hopewell Eating Disorder Support• Hospice at May Court;• Jericho Road Christian Ministries;• John Howard Society of Ottawa; • LiveWorkPlay;

• Meals on Wheels Ottawa;• Nelson House;• Ottawa Carleton Lifeskills;• Ottawa Rotary Home Foundation;• Parents’ Lifelines of Eastern Ontario;• Quick Start;• Rogers House;• Serenity Renewal for Families;• Sexual Assault Support Centre;• Shepherds of Good Hope; • YMCA Youth Housing Program;• Youth Services Bureau;• Youville Centre.

A weekly guide in legal matters

Each week, a lawyer from the Kanata based Allan Snelling law firm will answer a reader’s question.If you have a general legal question that you would like to have addressed send it via email to [email protected]

Do you need a legal consultation?Sometimes we face decisions that may have significant

legal consequences for us and our loved ones. Deciding what is best can be stressful and difficult, especially if we don’t have enough information to understand the law and legal effects of our choices.

If you are facing one of these tough decisions, you deserve to have the legal information you need in order to make the right choice for you.

Meeting with a lawyer for an initial consultation is a great opportunity for you to ask questions and get the answers you need in order to choose your next steps. A lawyer can explain to you the legal process involved, and whether there are any process options that can help you avoid time and costs; what types of documents and information you will need in order to proceed; the basic

laws that apply to your situation; and the financial aspects involved in your case; as well as answering any other questions you may have.

Your consultation with a lawyer will be confidential and provide you with reliable, professional information that you can trust. You may realize, after your initial consultation, that you don’t need a lawyer, or that you don’t need a lawyer just yet. Or, you may realize that now is the right time to hire a lawyer to guide you through the process, which can be complex and difficult to understand.

If you are facing a tough decision, give yourself peace of mind by talking to a lawyer who can give you the information you need to make the best choice for your situation. With a good legal consultation, you will be able to take those next steps with confidence.

Venta students entertain family, friends with musical Christmas concertJohn [email protected]

Community - Music plays an important role at Venta Preparatory School at Carp, with students receiving daily music instruction.

With music playing such a role at the school, you just knew that the school’s Christmas concert would be some-thing special – and that’s just what it was.

The school’s music room was fi lled to capacity with parents, grandparents and siblings for the concert just days before Christmas. Also in attendance was Dr. Agatha Sid-lauskas, now 101 years old, who founded Venta Prepara-tory School in 1981.

The music room had red Christmas stockings in front, along with a Christmas wreath in the centre and accented with a Christmas garland running the width of the stage.

And with a Christmas scene on the stage’s back wall featuring both an airborne Santa and his reindeer and sleigh and a Christmas tree adding to the holiday atmo-sphere, the concert’s setting was perfect for the musical presentations by the students.

The concert itself saw class groups of students perform several musical numbers each. The Junior Three, Junior Four and Five, and Junior One and Two groups, rang-ing in size from 10 students to 18 students, all presented Christmas-themed music playing either hand bells or xy-lophones.

The tunes ranged from ‘Jolly Old St. Nicholas’ to ‘Car-ol of the Bells’ to ‘Holiday Happiness’ to ‘Big Jolly Snow-man’.

The Junior One and Two group also performed a show-stopping recitation of ‘Way Up High in the Christmas Tree’ about candy canes on a Christmas tree. The 11 stu-dents involved did this while wearing Santa hats and hold-ing cut-out candy canes.

It was quite a hit with the audience, as was their ensu-ing choral poetry, complete with arm movements, called ‘Singing Christmas Carols’.

The school’s Junior French Choir then added their voic-es to the concert, wearing Santa hats as they lined up across the stage in their green Venta Preparatory School dress to sing ‘Petit Papa Noel’, ‘L’Enfant Au Tambour’ and ‘Silent Night’, with ‘Silent Night’ being sung in English, French and Italian. This choir was accompanied on the piano by music teacher Sarah Keogan who organized the concert and was directed by teacher Francesco Di Salvio.

The concert wrapped up with a performance by the school’s grade 7, 8 and 9 band under the direction of Keo-gan. This band includes a range of instruments from guitar to clarinet to fl ute to saxophone to trumpet to drums.

The band played ‘Thunderbolt Peak’, ‘I’m Getting Nut-tin’ For Christmas’ and ‘Christmas Proclamation’.

This band performance ended the concert but not the fun, as those in attendance were invited to take part in a variety of activities being staged at the school including an adult and kids balloon pop for prizes, a silent auction, kids games and basket raffl es. The activities were held as a fundraiser for the school.

City of Ottawa West Carleton/March ward councillor Eli El-Chantiry was scheduled to attend the concert, but last minute duties elsewhere prevented his attendance.

Venta Preparatory School on Old Carp Road at Carp is a small private day and boarding school that offers class-es from junior Kindergarten to Grade 10. The maximum class size is 12 students.

Venta Preparatory School’s aim is to teach the child, not simply deliver the curriculum. Each student has an in-dividual program that is meant to respond to his or her needs. Teachers adjust skill based programs such as math-ematics to provide challenge where it is needed and reme-diation where it is necessary.

Music, art and physical education are all important parts of the program for all students at Venta Preparatory School.

Students in the Junior One and Two group in the Christmas concert at Venta wear Santa hats and hold cut-out candy canes as they recite a poem about candy canes .JOHN CURRY/
