EMC news - The Canada Day in Kanata committee has gone social with a new smart phone and tablet applica-

tion, Twitter account and Facebook page.

The app, for Android, iPhone, BlackBerry cellphones and tablets, is a free download and offers informa-

tion on all the events taking place, an interactive map, and more.

“They’ll be able to get a listing of all the performances, the entertainment on site and the times,” said Sarah De-hler, head of environmental initiatives

on the committee. “In the past we’ve published it (in the Kourier-Standard) … but this actually puts it in people’s hands on site. That’s a big plus, as well as having information about the per-formers. We have a music tab where people can have access to downloads … the interactive map so they know what is where.”

The app was developed by Preston Martelly of Java Logix Inc. and Mea-

gan Hanes of Love Digimedia.Users will also have the ability to up-

load photos of themselves enjoying the festivities. As well, the committee can send out alerts over all the accounts to keep people informed, said Dehler.

“And really important there is the capability to make a donation to Cana-da Day in Kanata,” she added.

EMC news - Many residents think having a hospice in the Kati-mavik-Hazeldean neighbourhood in south Kanata is a good idea.

Jill Jones, who lives across the street from Hospice Care Ottawa’s newest acquisition, said she’s pleased to see the organization moving in.

“I’m just very happy to see the hospice coming here,” she said af-ter a public meeting on June 19. “It all sounds good.”

Hospice Care Ottawa, the um-brella organization of Friends of Hospice Ottawa (located in Kana-ta) and the Hospice at May Court (located in the Glebe), recently purchased the building at 110 Mc-Curdy Dr., the former home of Trinity Presbyterian Church.

The organization is preparing to move all of its administration pro-grams in the west to the building, with the idea of building a residen-tial hospice area in the future.

“I like the attitude, I like the ap-proach they’re taking,” said Jones.

“When I got the letter in the mailbox (announcing the meeting) I’ve never been so pleased,” said another resident.

HOSPICE CARE

Hospice Care Ottawa held an information session for residents to learn about the organization’s plans.

Around 80 people attended the

gathering at the McCurdy Drive building last Wednesday.

The move will take place in three phases, said Lisa Sullivan, the ex-ecutive director of Hospice Care Ottawa.

The first phase will be to move the administration side of Friends of Hospice by this fall. The second phase will be to expand the day programs offered by the organi-zation and have more available at the Kanata site by 2014. The third phase is to build a 10-bed residen-tial hospice on the site by 2016.

“All these things are coming to-gether,” said Sullivan.

Residents raised questions such as what the residential hospice will look like, how much traffic the hos-pice will contribute to the streets and what will happen to the green-ery on the property.

Right now, nothing has been planned, said Sullivan, adding the hospice is committed to fitting in with the community and retaining the beauty of the property. She said traffic at the May Court property, which is nestled in the Glebe, has never been an issue with residents.

Colizza Bruni Architecture will be helping to design the new hos-pice. The organization said it will keep the lines of communication open with the community as plans advance.

“Our commitment is to provide you information so you know what is happening,” said Sullivan. “I want the hospice to become part of the community.”

Traffic studies and design plans

will be available as they are com-pleted, said Kanata South Coun. Allan Hubley.

“This is a much better proposal than a 10-storey building,” he said. “Everyone seems pretty happy with it.”

FUNDS NEEDED

Hospice Care Ottawa is current-ly fundraising $6 million to help with the plans for the Kanata site. As well, the organization is look-ing for volunteers to join its team and will host training sessions in September.

Palliative hospice care provides end-of-life treatment to people in their last days and or weeks. It also offers support to family and care-givers. All the services are free-of-charge in a home-like setting.

“It’s not only a sad place where people die,” said Sullivan. “It feels like home.”

Trinity Presbyterian Church will be moving to a new location on Richardson Side Road to accom-modate its growing congregation, said Rev. Shaun Seaman.

“If we do have to leave this beau-tiful place, can we think of a min-istry or a service more beautiful than a palliative care hospice?” he asked. “We feel blessed by that.”

Sullivan said this move is a dream come true.

“We are just thrilled that this is becoming a reality,” she said.

EMC news - A Kanata con-gregation is breaking down walls as fast as it can build them.

Members of Trinity Presby-terian Church held their final service on Sunday, June 23, as they prepared to leave the building on McCurdy Drive

for a new church at the corner of Richardson Side Road and Huntmar Road.

The new church is set to be finished in time for Easter Sunday next year and until then the church’s 135 fami-lies will worship at the Kanata Community Christian Reform Church on Castlefrank Road.

Trinity Presbyterian Church held its first service on Mc-Curdy Drive at 3 p.m. on May 24, 1981. Bringing those 32 years full circle, on June 23 Rev. Shaun Seaman included the same hymns and scripture readings in his service that

were read on that first day of worship.

Morgan Strickland then sang a version of the Lord’s Prayer in a soaring operatic voice, after which she prompt-ly burst into tears. From then on, there were few dry eyes in the sanctuary as the service drew to a close.

With an upbeat hymn keep-ing tears at bay, members of the church slowly stripped the sanctuary of its sacred items for a symbolic procession out of the church at the end of the service. Banners, paintings, candles and small tables were

carried down the aisle while Seaman carefully unhooked the simple wooden cross at the front of the sanctuary. He car-ried it out of the church over his shoulder.

Outside, the congregation gathered in a circle for a small ceremony outside with the items.

In honour of the emotional day, Seaman delivered a hope-ful sermon to the small con-gregation, which encouraged members to break down figura-tive walls between themselves and others even as the church strives to build physical walls around its new church.

Seaman said walls stand between us when we fear or judge each other out of igno-rance or prejudice. By break-ing down those walls, he said, the church can foster unity, peace and community with all people, regardless of gender, race, religion or sexual orien-tation.

He reminded his congrega-tion that the construction of the new church offers an op-portunity to welcome every-one in, rather than keep cer-tain people out.

“What wonderful work has brought us to this day in the journey of Trinity, and now what a wonderful opportunity we have in moving forward,” he said from the pulpit.

In more practical terms,

Seaman, who has been a min-ister at the church for 20 years, said the church has been look-

ing to expand for a long time. “We’re building a bigger

church, so we’re hoping to make it available for more people to come and worship,” he said, adding that the church wants to be an active part of

the larger community. “We’ve been very restrictive in terms of community use here so we’re hoping to make our new facility much more available to community groups.”

Rev. Ralph Kendall was the church’s first minister and he came from Toronto to take part in the final service. He said the change was a long time coming.

“My dream when I was here was for this to happen,” said Kendall. “This wasn’t a closing so much as a moving forward.”

The Hospice Care Ottawa will take over the church building this summer.

The event, which is 100 per cent volunteer led and organized, received no of-fi cial funding from the city. Dehler said they receive a grant that’s less than $2,000 and the rest is contributed by sponsors and individual do-nations.

“We are very much depen-dent upon our sponsors and we’re very grateful to our sponsors,” she said. “But for this event to continue to take place we do need individuals

donating $1 for themselves, $2, $3 … it really contrib-utes.”

Canada Day in Kanata is still in need of funding to sup-port this year’s event, which the committee is hoping will come in through the app and on-site donation areas.

“On-site donations and donations from this app are defi nitely required in order for this event to take place next year,” said Dehler.

The app will be available until the end of July, and people will have the opportu-

nity to vote on the app for the best headliner.

The committee is looking to invite back one of the nine headliners from the past to headline next year’s 10th an-niversary event.

“We’re heading into 10 years hosting the event in Kanata,” said Dehler.

“One of the elements we’ll be adding to the app will be (the opportunity) to vote for best acts to come back for 2014.”

EMC news - The Bridlewood area has seen a rash of thefts from vehicles recently.

In the past two weeks, 28 thefts in the south Kanata neighbourhood have been reported to police. Ot-tawa police Const. Lori Fahey, who works out of the Kanata and Stitts-ville community police centre, is-sued a crime alert for the area.

“As of Tuesday (June 18), there were 28 incidents within the last two weeks,” said Fahey.

“Most admit that their vehicles were not locked.”

There is no suspect information available at this time, she said in the release, but people are being warned to lock their vehicles and remove all valuables when they exit.

“By changing your behaviour when it comes to putting valuables out of sight and locking up, you can reduce the risk of being targeted for theft,” she said.

Most of the thefts have occurred in the northern area of Bridlewood and the crime alert was issued to members of Neighbourhood Watch-

es in the area. Fahey offered a list of tips to help

people avoid being marked:• Ensure your garage, shed, home

and vehicle are always locked, even when you are home.

• Ensure car windows and doors are closed tightly and locked.

• Park facing the street and in a well-lit area so that anyone tamper-ing with your vehicle is more no-ticeable.

• Don’t leave valuables in your vehicle, such as personal identifi ca-tion, vehicle registration, insurance certifi cates or credit cards. Even

loose change can make your vehicle a target.

• Place an “All Valuables Re-moved” card on your car to help remind you to remove valuables be-fore leaving your car and also deter would-be thieves.

Visit ottawapolice.ca/en/crimeprevention/safetyandpreven-tiontips/roadsafety/safety_theft_prevention.aspx for more informa-tion.

Fahey said residents should re-port any incidents of theft to the Ot-tawa police at 613-236-1222, ext. 7300. CONST. LORI FAHEY

Bridlewood sees rash of thefts from vehicles

EMC news - Ottawa police partnered with lo-cal cycling safety groups on Monday, June 17, to promote safer cycling.

Police offi cers and members from local cycling safety groups, including Safer Roads Ottawa, talked with cyclists about how to make their trips safer for the summer.

Cyclists were provided with refl ective tape for their bikes. Offi cers from the central district will be enforcing the laws to “ensure safe cycling for all,” said police in a release.

Police are reminding cyclists of the following rules as well as some key safety tips:

• Stop at all stop signs and red lights. Exercise caution when crossing intersections.

• Shoulder check and signal all lane changes, turns and stops.

• Use proper hand signalling when turning and stopping.

• Recognize and be mindful of the blind spots around cars, trucks and buses.

• Cycle on the right side of the road.• Ride only in the designated direction on one-

way streets.• It is unsafe and illegal to ride on a sidewalk.• Wear a helmet (required if under age 18).• Have a bell or horn on your bike.• Use a headlight, taillight, refl ectors and light-

coloured or retro-refl ective clothing so drivers can see you.

• Share the road. Safety tips also apply to drivers to increase the

safety of cyclists: • Treat bicycles as you would any other vehicle

on the road. Cyclists generally ride in the right-most through traffi c lane, about one meter from the curb or parked cars.

• When passing a cyclist, leave a safe distance between your car and the bicycle. Give extra pass-ing distance during slippery road conditions.

• Pass at a moderate speed and give plenty of space on quiet roads. Cyclists may be startled by fast-approaching vehicles. Shoulder check and signal all lane changes and turns.

• Check for bicycles in your side view mirror before opening your car doors.

EMC news - An Ontario Provin-cial Police offi cer has been charged with child luring following a six-month investigation.

The alleged offence took place sometime between Sept. 22 and Dec. 3, 2012.

The OPP launched an investiga-tion last December after receiving a complaint from the female vic-tim’s family.

Const. Michael Janho has been charged with one count of child luring.

The 31-year-old offi cer, who works out of the OPP Ottawa de-tachment on Teron Road in Bea-verbrook, has been suspended with pay.

He has been a member of the OPP Ottawa detachment for fi ve years.

The alleged offence took place using telecommunications, but did not involve the Internet, said OPP

spokesperson Sgt. Kristine Rae.“It was not through the Internet,

it was through other telecommuni-cations,” she said.

Janho was off duty during the time of the alleged offence.

He was released on a promise to appear.

The accused is next scheduled to go before the Ontario Court of Justice on July 9.

Anyone with information about the alleged incident is asked to call the OPP at 1-888-310-1122.

B) Yes. I don’t want any new bridge to be built, no matter the location.

C) Yes. The money should be spent on a tunnel, not a bridge.

D) No. Kettle Island was the right plan and the province is making a big mistake.

A) RedBlacks is a great name that recalls the storied past of the city’s sports teams.

B) It’s REDBLACKS, not RedBlacks. Get the name right.

Hope.

The other day someone was talking in the paper about light rail and the lamentable absence of a north-south route. As luck would have, this

discussion coincided with a couple of drives to the airport and back, in the period between 4 and 6 p.m.

Don’t ever do this. As far as I can fi gure out, having tried all the available routes to and from the middle west of Ottawa, you can’t get there from here. And you can’t get back.

And sure, you can suggest picking some other time of day, but you might have a hard time convincing the airlines to change their schedules.

The big problem is that everybody wants to go south and more and more of them are choosing the Airport Parkway (by the way, how come it hasn’t been named after Sir John A. Macdonald yet?).

Most of them don’t use the parkway to get to the airport. They us it get to other places and the parkway, nicely narrowing from four lanes to two just when the four are most needed, can’t handle the traffi c. Nor can Bronson Avenue, as the people who live in the Glebe have long known.

And even getting to the parkway is no pic-

nic either, since every car wants to go east on Baseline and Heron, every car except for the cars that want to go west. At certain points the east-bound and west-bound travellers can stare across the median at each other as they sit mired in traffi c.

That leaves the Merivale-Hunt Club-Up-lands Drive option, which worked pretty well about 15 years ago. Merivale is, well, Merivale. And Hunt Club has a huge jam-up, just about any time of day, at its Riverside and Prince of Wales intersections.

Still, it takes about the same amount of time as the Baseline-Merivale-Airport Parkway option – which is to say, twice the amount of time it takes in off hours.

You’d think it would be easier coming back, but it isn’t. The parkway sails along

nicely, but Hunt Club has the same problems going east. Baseline-Heron has the same congestion going west.

Face it, everybody wants to go every-where. At a certain time of day, every direc-tion in Ottawa seems to contain a favourite destination. You can sit still in your car no matter which direction you are facing.

One driver, lulled by a smooth ride north on the parkway, decided to stay on it, head north on Bronson to Carling. That worked well until three blocks from the Carling intersection, when everything decided to stop moving for 15 minutes. An option would have been to keep going and turn onto the Queensway, but why would anyone do that?

It is easy enough for an occasional visitor to the airport to complain, but there are peo-ple who have to do this, or a variation of it, every day, usually at a time when everybody else is trying to do it as well. And you only have to drive south a bit and look at all the new construction to realize that the situation is going to be way worse in the near future.

It would be nice to think that the new Strandherd Bridge, if it is ever fi nished, will make things better, but it is hard to see how it can help much.

Building some light rail out there would

really help, but that is probably decades in the future, not to mention many millions of dollars. More houses are going up and more people are traveling on the same roads. Maybe some of them will start working from home.

Maybe some employers may decide to locate where the people are. You can only hope.

Meanwhile there will be considerable agitation to build more lanes on this road and that, which never seems to solve anything.

We wanted to become a big city. Well, guess what.

You can’t get there from here in a big city

Well, what now Queen’s Park?

COLUMN

So, the province has declared it won’t support an interprovincial bridge crossing at Kettle Island.

OK. This newspaper has supported the construction of at bridge at that location in the past, but barring a change in the political winds, the route favoured by the National Capital Commission ap-pears to be dead in the water. But what does the city do now?

That the capital region needs another Ottawa River crossing does not need any further justifi cation: the last bridge, Portage, was built by the NCC in 1973 when the area population stood at about half of what it is now. As cities grow, the need for infrastructure grows along with it.

So what do we do now? The province has said it will work with the city to develop a new transporta-tion master plan to accommodate future growth, but the need for a new interprovincial crossing can’t be ignored by such an exercise – Ottawa and Gatineau don’t exist independently of one another.

Some have suggested constructing a tunnel beneath the river to divert truck traffi c away from Lowertown – King Edward Avenue is currently the most-used route into the city for trucks moving to and from Gatineau – but such a plan would cost

signifi cantly more than a bridge.Perhaps one of the other routes studied by the

NCC, at Lower Duck Island or McLaurin Bay, would be better. Except they have both been identifi ed as being more expensive, according to the NCC’s stud-ies, and would require signifi cant additional infra-structure to connect with the rest of the road network.

Whatever the answer, action needs to be taken. An east-end interprovincial crossing has been discussed for decades and the issues are not going away any time soon. The effi cient transport of goods to and from the city is vital to economic growth, which ef-fects employment, wealth and consumer prices in the capital region.

Now that the province has taken its stand, what will it do to address the problem? It was not particu-larly helpful to denounce a plan without offering an alternative. Perhaps the government wants to take some time to study the issue, but haven’t we been doing just that for more than 20 years? It would have been more responsible of Transportation Minister Glenn Murray to resist making his announcement until the province had something tangible to offer the residents of Ottawa in the way of an alternative.

No action simply is not a responsible choice when it comes to Ottawa’s future.

If health statistics are to be believed, I spent most of the winter living like most of

you, dear readers. In other words, I ate too much, sat too much, drank too much and failed to get 150 minutes of exercise per week, (like a shocking 80 per cent of adult Canadi-ans). These are all things that contribute to chronic disease and early death.

As a recent Maclean’s cover story highlighted, however, there’s some-thing else that’s debilitat-ing and slowly killing us -- sleep deprivation.

Adults require 8.5 hours of sleep, on average, per night, yet most of us are running a devastating sleep defi cit.

The June 24th feature highlighted a number of disturbing medical studies that would suggest it’s time to better prioritize sleep in our lives.

One, out the Univer-sity of Chicago, restricted seven healthy, thin volun-teers to 4.5 hours of sleep per night. “Their very cells had been transformed,” summarizes journal-ist Luiza Ch. Savage in Maclean’s.

“It was as if the bodies of the otherwise healthy specimens had been swapped with that of someone else: someone heavy and sick.”

Savage goes onto summarize a number of international studies that not only link sleep de-privation to depleted cell growth and repair, diabetes and obesity, but also to decreased pain tolerance, weakened memory and impaired social judgment.

One scientist quoted in the article went so far as to suggest that sleep deprived individuals act in a similar way to those under the

infl uence of alcohol, even putting women at higher risk of sexual harassment and unwanted pregnan-cies.

A 2011 Norwegian study on the subject shockingly concluded that long-term sleep depriva-tion triples women’s risk of getting fi bromyalgia. Researchers began by interviewing 12,350 healthy, pain-free women about their sleep habits. A decade later, those who had identifi ed sleep diffi -culties at the beginning of the study were three times more likely than those who said they slept well to have developed fi bromyal-gia symptoms.

All this is horrible and shocking, but is it enough to make a nation of fa-tigued individuals change our behaviour? Probably not. But what if we con-sider how inadequate sleep affects our children?

I have friends -- moth-ers -- that haven’t had a full night’s sleep in more than a decade. They don’t believe in sleep-training, they say, which means they’ve got toddlers wak-ing every two hours to feed and school-aged chil-dren refusing bedtimes or waking up frequently with night terrors. Children need a lot more sleep than parents realize. School-age kids need 10-11 hours of uninterrupted sleep per night to be healthy. Kids under four need 11-12 hours of consecutive sleep per night, plus 2-3 hours during the day.

And what happens if

they don’t? Well, not only does it put their immune systems at higher risk of contracting viruses, but, as Savage notes in her Ma-clean’s piece, researchers have found “inadequate sleep in children has been linked to hyperactivity and even incorrect diagnosis of attention defi cit disorder (ADD).”Recently, we were experiencing some issues with one of our children. Was it ADD?

He seemed chronically anxious, temperamental and frustratingly inat-tentive. It wasn’t until I started researching sleep that I realized he’s been running a defi cit for several weeks – call it end-of-school fever. We rolled

back his bedtime by an hour and, within a week, he’s become a different kid. When I’ve advocated for sleep training to some parents, they’ve made the false assumption that sleep training causes anxiety. In fact, the opposite is true.

Most disturbing to me, as a parent, is the link between sleep deprivation and depression, including chronic depression leading to suicide. As a parent, I see it as my responsibil-ity – not a mere choice – to teach my kids to respect sleep, and show them, with love, how to get there, from as early as possible. I’m working out two hours per day mini-mum. The only exception is on days when I don’t get a good night’s sleep.

Thankfully, even with an infant (who sleeps 11 hours consecutively per night, on average), we’ve managed to keep those to a minimum.

Sleep isn’t a luxury – it’s essential BRYNNALESLIE

What makes you proud to be a Canadian?

SUBMITTED

Kanata resident Kim Han was pleasantly surprised to fi nd that being Canadian carries weight when travelling abroad.

Emma [email protected]

EMC news - What makes you a proud Canuck?

This week, the Kanata Kou-rier-Standard prints some of the letters sent by our readers telling us what they love about Canada.

Being Canadian in Greece

Dear Editor,Weighed down by our

backpacks, my daughter and I trudged through the streets of Athens looking for a hotel where we could spend the last night of our stay in Greece. We had just arrived from Hy-dra, one of the prettiest Greek islands in the Saronic Gulf that rises almost 600 metres above sea level.

Characterized by its rocky hillsides and pine forested val-leys, Hydra is a trekker’s para-dise.

No cars, motorbikes, neon signs and high-rise buildings are allowed on the island to preserve it as a national his-toric landmark. The only transport is by donkey, bicy-cle or on foot. This is where wealthy Athenians head for re-laxing week-end breaks, away from the hustle and bustle of Greece’s national capital.

Athens was crowded with masses of people. Air pollu-tion and traffi c noise were a stark contrast to the clean air, peace and quiet of Hydra.

With our map in hand we walked wearily from one ho-tel to another. There were no vacancies anywhere! It was May 1.

We didn’t know it was La-bour Day. People were off work and had come to Athens to celebrate.

Our backpacks weighed heavily on our backs when we spotted a hotel, some 30 metres away. Again we were told there was no vacancy. De-jected, I heaved a heavy sigh: “Our fl ight home is not until tomorrow. We really need a place to spend the night.”

“Home? Where is home?” the clerk asked.

“Canada.” “Canada?” he hesitated, as if

struck by an idea. “Wait a min-ute. I talk to management.”

A couple of minutes later he appeared. With a fl ourish of his hand and a smile he said: “For Canadians, we always make room.”

Our eyes lit up in surprise and our hearts fi lled with pride to be Canadians and have Can-ada as our home.Kim HanKanata

History a valuable lesson

Dear Editor,My name is Vedashri

Shimpi. I am a Grade 7 stu-dent at Roberta Bondar Public School.

In history (class), I am learning about the rebellions of Upper and Lower Canada. I am glad the rebellions hap-pened because they made the Canada we have today.

We wouldn’t have a de-mocracy, we wouldn’t have a Canada if it weren’t for such a “small” event in history, which was in reality, a huge event.

We should be thankful for the amazing country we live in. Why does everyone move to Canada?

Because Canada is a won-derful country! Why does Canada have a high Human Development Index (HDI)?

Because its citizens are pro-vided with healthcare, educa-tion, safety, and freedom! Why do all countries want to trade with Canada? Because Canada has amazing oceans, moun-tains, and land, which are all fi lled with valuable resources!

I am thankful for Canada Day, because without it, we wouldn’t be the country we are today.

Simply CanadianDear Editor, What makes me proud to

be a Canadian? The answer is very simple; we are simple people from coast to coast.

We sing Oh Canada when needed and we are happy when we support our sports teams win or lose, simply because we participate.

When the Ottawa Food Bank announces they are run-ning low on food collection, we fl ood them with donations.

We participate in every run being held, whatever the cause is, to show support and I am sure it is the same from coast to coast.

That’s what we are: we are simple Canadians.

We moan and groan about weather and we say few things about scandals (never a dull moment) about politics wheth-er it is at federal, provincial and city level but we carry on.

We are simple Canadians, nothing more nothing less and this is enough of a reason to be a proud Canadian.

A proud Canadian,Anant NagpurOld Ottawa South

Construction of the Richcraft Recreation Complex is well underway and sta� are now looking at the types of programs the facility will o� er. A meeting on June 20 drew a handful of residents to discuss possible programming at the new centre.

EMC news - Construction of the Richcraft Recreation Complex is well underway and staff are now looking at the types of programming the facility will offer.

Two recreational sport groups – badminton and table tennis – were well represented at a meeting on June 20 that drew a handful of resi-dents to discuss possible programming at the new centre.

Kevin Willington, who lives in north Kanata, said there is a need for more badminton pro-gramming in the west end. With a number of clubs and drop-ins already at capacity, there is a long list of people waiting to hit the courts.

“All the clubs have waiting lists,” he said, adding he wants to see drop-in times, opportu-nity for training and courts available for clubs at the recreation complex.

Willington, who coaches youths, said the Kanata Junior Badminton Club, which plays on Fridays, has a minimum of 180 children regis-tered, with 40 to 50 always on the waiting list to play.

“(There’s a) need to cater to juniors,” he said.

The Kanata Badminton Club, of which Wil-lington is a member, holds games fi ve nights a

week and is always at capacity.The club “has a membership of 150 adults

and has been at full capacity since the late 1970s,” said John Russell, who’s been playing the sport for 35 years.

Russell, past president of the Ottawa and District Badminton Association, lives in north Kanata and coaches in schools. He said bad-minton appeals to a broad spectrum of people, making it a popular sport.

“Badminton is moderately inexpensive, it’s non-contact, it’s gender neutral,” he said.

“This is a sport that can be played by ... any-body and everybody,” said Willington. “And you can learn at any age. It’s a very social sport.”

TABLE TENNIS

Many at the meeting also wanted to see available space and times for table tennis. Table tennis is a popular sport among Kanata’s large Asian and Chinese community, said Wen Jean Ho, founder of the Kanata Chinese Seniors Support Centre.

Alyssa Kong said her husband has to pick up their children by “3:30 sharp” in order to beat the rush hour traffi c downtown so they can play and practice.

Programming focuses on three areasContinued from page 11

The Kanata Lakes family makes the trek three to four times a week.

“We have to play far away,” said Kong, adding it would be nice to have table tennis available in Kanata for children, youth and adults, in-stead of having to travel outside the community.

Horatio Pintea and his wife Lijuan Geng are founders of the Geng Table Tennis Academy and both are big names in the sport – Pintea played in the 1996 and ’98 Olympics and Geng is a four-time world champion.

Pintea said there is one table ten-nis drop-in twice a week in Glen Cairn, but it’s “always full” and only for adults.

“There’s nothing in Kanata (for youth),” he said. “We have a table tennis club but no gym space.”

PROGRAMMING

The city will focus on three areas of programming for the Richcraft Recreation Complex: aquatics, fi t-ness and recreation, said Chantal Laport, the new manager of the fa-cility.

Aside from traditional program-ming in those categories, such as aqua fi tness, group exercise classes and recreational sports, residents of-fered up other innovative possibili-ties.

At the table discussing youth pro-gramming, a resident raised the point of starting a Rainbow Club for youth in the community. Another idea was a one-time drop in class, where teens can try their hands at an activity be-fore signing up for a full course.

Aside from programming, fund-raising efforts to help pay for ad-ditional features to the complex are still underway. Time capsules, as well as paver stones for the com-munity walkway can be purchased from Kanata North Coun. Marianne Wilkinson’s offi ce.

Construction on the Richcraft Recreation Complex is set to be fi nished around September, said Wilkinson, with the facility open for use in November or December.

“It’s going to be a very lively, ac-tive place,” she said. “It’s coming together now.”

EMC news - A Kanata wom-en’s group is sponsoring the train-ing of a guide dog in memory of a former member.

The Canadian Federation of University Women/Kanata donat-ed the second portion of the Clau-dette Tougas scholarship trust to the training of Tess II, a yellow Labrador-Golden retriever.

“Claudette had a guide dog of her own from Manotick that served her very, very well,” said Monique Tougas, Claudette’s sis-ter. “(Delilah) was her beloved dog as well as her beloved com-panion and her eyes for many years.”

Claudette, who was visually-impaired, was a long-time mem-ber of the women’s federation. She graduated with a degree in psychology from the University of Toronto, worked for the gov-ernment, was a published author and champion for the blind.

“As a fully bilingual and completely blind woman, she pioneered the development of

support services for disabled employees … she successfully challenged the City of Ottawa for the inclusion of visually impaired persons for the use of Para-Transpo,” said her obituary.

Claudette died after a four-year battle with breast cancer in 2010.

The bond between Claudette and Delilah was one of the rea-sons the women’s federation de-cided to donate the second por-tion of the scholarship to the Ca-nadian Guide Dogs for the Blind.

“The dog went to her as soon as it was trained and retired with her,” said Monique. “She retired from the government and the dog retired as well, and then was with her until (Delilah) passed away.”

The fi rst portion of the schol-arship was donated to Kendra Matthews-Gramer, a then-Grade 12 student at Notre Dame High School in 2011.

GUIDE DOG

The national training cen-tre for guide dogs is located in Manotick, where Monique met

the puppy being trained through the scholarship money.

Tess II will remain in pre-train-ing until fall 2014, when she will begin training at the Manotick centre.

“The organization has trained and provided 724 guide dogs to visually impaired Canadians (since 1984),” said Steven Dou-cette, special events and guider co-ordinator.

In 2010, the charity launched an assistance dogs division, which trains canines to help those with mobility-related disabilities, said Doucette.

EMC news - The Kanata Food Cupboard has launched a Fresh Food Revolution.

Clients of the organization now have the opportunity to select fresh foods and produce, along with other items under the cupboard’s grocery store concept.

“As part of the grocery store concept ... at the end they have access to everything in our fridges,” said Jenna Sudds, who sits on the board of the food cupboard.

The fi rst phase of the Fresh Food Revolution, the grocery store concept, was launched last November. It allows for clients to select their own food from the cupboard’s shelves, based on their needs and any dietary restrictions, instead of receiving a pre-arranged basket of goods.

With the second phase, cli-ents will always have access to apples, carrots and potatoes, and then a selection of in-sea-son fruits and vegetables, as

well as milk, eggs and meats, said Sudds.

“It’s a huge change,” she added.

The offi cial launch of the Fresh Food Revolution is July 2, but the food cupboard has been collecting donations since June 15 at the Kanata Farmers Market.

“When we left, we had two big baskets of food and a jar full of money,” said Sudds. “We had a great variety (of produce).”

The food cupboard’s sum-mer student, Taylor Davidson is hosting the booth every Satur-day until Aug. 3 at the farmers market, from 8 a.m. to 3 p.m. where people can donate fresh foods or funds for the initiative.

The program has already received compliments from cli-ents, said Sudds, adding people are happy they have the option to select healthy and nutritious items.

Aside from donations at the

farmers market, the food cup-board is also receiving fresh goods from Laura’s Your Inde-pendent Grocer.

“She’s delivering food for us twice a week,” said Sudds.

Sudds said the food cup-board is also encouraging peo-ple to plant an extra row in their garden with vegetables for the organization.

She said she received a call from a woman two weeks ago who said her building had planted six additional beds on the roof with items for the food cupboard.

People wishing to donate items need to call ahead to en-sure someone is there to receive the goods and put them in the fridge, said Sudds. To schedule a drop-off, call 613-836-7847 or email [email protected].

For more information or to donate online, visit the website at kanatafoodcupboard.ca.

EMC news - Kanata North cel-ebrated its residents and businesses with the inaugural Community Rec-ognition Awards on June 18.

Fourteen people were nominated in four categories – business, youth citizen, senior citizen and adult citi-zen of the year.

“I thought it would be nice to hon-our the volunteers in Kanata North,” said ward councillor Marianne Wilkinson. “There are so many vol-unteers in our community.”

Residents were invited to submit the nominations. Judges Jo-Anne Poirier, Suzanne Jacobson and Mario Poirier poured over the submissions and selected the winners in each cat-egory.

“I want to congratulate all the nominees,” said Wilkinson. “Each one of you is deserving.”

Next year, Wilkinson said she ex-pects to see more people nominated and is looking at adding a new cat-egory for non-profit of the year.

SENIOR CITIZEN OF THE YEAR

The husband and wife team of Ann and Bill Williams was the only nominee in the senior citizen of the year category, but both were deserv-ing of the title, said Wilkinson.

“The Williams were instrumental in fundraising for the Ron Maslin Playhouse and the Kanata (Civic) Art Gallery, as well as volunteer-ing for the Kanata Food Cupboard,” said Angela McGree, assistant to the councillor and emcee for the event.

Bill passed away last September.“Bill, he would have been amazed,

absolutely stunned. I was,” said Ann of the award, adding she wanted to thank those who nominated her and her husband.

Ann said her mother instilled the spirit of volunteering at an early age. Ann also volunteers at the San Fran-cisco botanical gardens when she vis-its her family in the United States.

“I’ve known Ann and Bill for a long time,” said Wilkinson. “They did work together on so many differ-ent things.”

“Every one of you is a winner in my eyes.”

The winner of the award was Sudds for her continuing work with the board of the Kanata Food Cup-board. Sudds helped to implement a number of new initiatives at the or-ganization.

“It’s a huge honour,” said Sudds, adding she was up against “tough competition.”

YOUTH CITIZEN

Two local teenagers were nomi-nated for the Youth Citizen of the Year Award. Natalie Tremblay and Lisa Gorman both volunteer their time for many organizations.

Natalie, 14, was presented with the award.

“She is always out in the commu-nity fundraising, organizing events, babysitting, organizing games in the park,” said McGree.

BUSINESS

M&M Meats and Sippy Cup Café were nominated for the Business of the Year Award. The award “recog-nizes a business which has contribut-ed signifi cantly to the quality of life in our community,” said McGree.

M&M Meats co-owner Ken Kram-er took home the award. His business was selected for “(supporting) many organizations throughout the year,” said Wilkinson.

“I really want to give back to the community,” said Ken Kramer, co-owner with wife Kathy, and Brad and Stephanie White. “It’s a family vision.”

EMC news - Kanata South Coun. Allan Hubley is spitting mad over the city’s lax proce-dures to help homeowners who fall victim to the city’s “sewer blasts.”

There’s no way to put it deli-cately, Hubley said. The way the city clears blocked sewer pipes can sometimes cause the sewer’s contents – including human waste – to explode from a toilet into someone’s home.

This happens to an average of 55 buildings in the city each year, according to a 2009 city report.

“It’s hazardous waste,” Hub-ley said.

But there is a simple way to prevent it, he said – one that he has been working with city staff to implement since shortly after he was elected in 2010.

“(Staff) told me the simple solution is … what your mother told you as a young boy: to put the (toilet) seat down,” he said.

Since he found that out thanks to an inquiry by his predecessor, Peggy Feltmate, Hubley has asked for staff to let him know before they show up on a street to clear the sew-ers. He sends out a flyer to all the affected homes to let them know how to prevent issues.

Hubley thought that was be-ing done for councillors across

the city, but he was “shocked” to find out on June 19 that other councillors were not being told when sewer clearing is happen-ing in their wards.

A livid Alta Vista Coun. Pe-ter Hume raised the issue at a June 18 environment commit-tee meeting. He recounted a story of a resident in his ward who suffered that fate and was sprayed with effluent as a result of sewer cleaning.

When the resident called 311, they were given no in-formation or advice on how to deal with the situation and were told to contact their insurance provider.

“If someone gets splashed with that effluent while they’re doing the laundry, we don’t give them any advice,” Hume

said. “It’s incredibly poor cus-tomer service.

“In the world of municipal politics, there is nothing worse than crap in peoples’ base-ments,” he added.

Hume said the city should be responsible for the cleanup and should not “download” the re-sponsibility onto homeowners.

Hubley agreed.“We created this problem.

We should be part of the solu-tion,” he said.

Sewer cleaning needs to be done approximately every five to seven years in each commu-nity, Hubley said. Annual clear-ing happens in problem areas where sewers have dips that collect leaves and other materi-als that block the flow.

The other cleaning option would be to send city workers into the sewers to dig up the blockages, Hubley said. That process is more tedious and expensive and involves closing roads, he said.

There are approximately 200,000 buildings connected to 2,700 kilometres of sanitary pipes in the city of Ottawa. Each year, the city cleans 800 km of pipes in front of approxi-mately 60,000 buildings.

The report indicated in 2009 there were 1,591 buildings re-ceiving special notifications of sewer cleaning. Recurrences are uncommon, the report states.

Councillors seek help for victims of ‘sewer blasts’

Ella Montpetit of Barrhaven is transformed into a Canada Day butterfly by face-paint artist Marie-Laurence Hetu on Rideau Street while Ella’s brother Liam Montpetit looks on during last year’s celebrations. The party returns to the core again this year with fun-filled events at both Parliament Hill and on Sparks Street.

StaffeMC news - Free admis-

sion and outdoor concerts are just a few of the ways for Ottawa residents to celebrate downtown this Canada Day.

The National Capital Com-mission will host its annual Canada Day celebrations on Parliament Hill with a musical lineup that starts at noon with Canadian performers Carly Rae Jepsen, Metric, Sylvain Cossette, Terry Clark, Radio Radio, lucie idlout, Karim Ouellet and DJ Abeille.

Astronaut Chris Hadfield will pair up with ed Robert-son, a member of The Bare-naked ladies, for a perfor-mance starting at 7:30 p.m.

The musical lineup will be preceded by traditional ceremony, including a Peace Tower carillon concert at 9

a.m. on July 1, the flag-raising ceremony at 9:30 a.m., and the Changing of the Guard at 10 a.m.

The noon show will include a fly-over by CF-18 fighter jets and the Snowbirds demonstra-tion team. Afternoon program-ming on the Parliament Hill lawn will trace Canada’s cul-tural heritage through music.

Both noon and evening shows feature the same head-liners – Jepsen and Metric.

Sparks Street will be host-ing a block party, with local performers, food vendors, games, face painting and a “Sparks Street Then and Now” photo booth.

EMC lifestyle - The deli-cate texture of farm raised-trout is enhanced by a light coating of cumin-scented cornmeal. As a contrast to its mild sweet taste, we’ve cre-ated a bold sauce from fresh Ontario vegetables. Prepara-tion time: 15 minutes. Cook-ing time: 20 minutes. Serves four with 375 ml (1-1/2 cups) of sauce.

INGREDIENTS

Fresh Jerk Sauce• 4 green onions, sliced • 3 cloves garlic, coarsely chopped• Half a jalapeno pepper, seeded and coarsely chopped• 1 sweet red pepper, cut into chunks• 3 large tomatoes, coarsely chopped • 15 ml (1 tbsp) packed brown sugar • 2 ml (1/2 tsp) each dried thyme leaves, ground ginger, cinna-mon, nutmeg and garlic salt

• 1 ml (1/4 tsp) cayenne pepper• Canola oil •125 ml (1/2 cup) chopped fresh coriander (optional)

Trout• 2 rainbow trout fillets (375 g/12 oz each), skin removed• 175 ml (3/4 cup) cornmeal • 15 ml (1 tbsp) ground cumin • 1 ml (1/4 tsp) salt • 1 egg• 75 ml (1/3 cup) milk• 20 ml (4 tsp) butter

PREPARATION

Fresh jerk sauce: Place the onions, garlic and jala-peno in a food processor. Whirl until the contents are coarsely ground.

Add the sweet pepper and tomatoes with seeds and juice. Add sugar, thyme, ginger, cinnamon, nutmeg, garlic salt and cayenne pep-per. Pulse until the mix-ture is chunky and pepper is chopped, about 10 times. Don’t puree.

In a large skillet, heat the oil over medium heat. Add the sauce and boil gently, uncovered and stirring often, until thickened – about 20 minutes. Stir in the corian-der, if you are using it.

Trout: Cut fi sh into serv-ing-size pieces. In a shallow dish, combine the cornmeal, cumin and salt. In another dish, whisk egg with milk. One at a time, coat both sides of fi sh in egg mixture and then in cornmeal mixture.

In large skillet, melt 15 ml (1 tbsp) of the butter, over medium heat. Add the coated fi sh and cook until golden, for about three to fi ve min-utes. Add remaining butter to side of pan.

Turn fi sh, letting melted butter fl ow over pan before placing fi sh down and cook for about three to fi ve min-utes.

Remove to plates. Spoon the jerk sauce on top and be-side the fi sh.

Would he topple over and fall out of the rocker? Would he hit the fl oor with a thud, maybe

banging his head on the oven door? I was sitting at the kitchen table. I

was alone. My sister Audrey said she had better things to do than waste time looking through the Eaton’s catalogue.

The three brothers were doing what they did every night in the summer: they were outside throwing balls, using their sling shots or shooting off their B.B. guns. The sun was still streaking through the west window and the kitchen had been redded up. Bedtime was just a couple hours away.

I sat very quietly watching Father. He looked smaller, I thought. Maybe it was the way he was sleeping in the rocker. He didn’t hear his pipe fall to the fl oor and the Ottawa Farm Journallay across his knees unopened. His chin was on his chest and I could see him breathing, his plaid shirt rising and falling gently.

It had been a long day for Father. Chores were done before sun-up. The plow and other pieces of farm machinery had been moved on the stone boat to the back fi elds across the Bonnechere and over the West Hill weeks before. By the time Father was fi nished with the morning chores, got the milking done and eaten his breakfast, he would be ready to take the team across the shallowest part of

the Bonnechere and head over to the back fi elds.

He would have picked up the basket of lunch Mother had made the night before, and we wouldn’t see him again until it was time to come back home for the evening chores. Dust of the fi elds still clung to his face. He had taken off his work boots and his heavy wool socks were covered in soil and bits and pieces of grass. I could see the edge of his combination underwear showing under his plaid shirt, and I wondered if I dared go and straighten up his head, so that he would be more comfortable. But of course that would wake him from his much needed sleep.

I wondered why he didn’t go to bed right after his supper, as I sat and watched his worn out body curled uncomfortably in the old rocker. But then he wouldn’t be able to check on the barns, which he never failed to do before falling into bed. There were fi elds to plow and cultivate, and grain to plant. There was scant time to do it in, as Father tried to outsmart the weather. So from dawn to dusk, Father

like every other farmer around us, was tied to the habits of the season.

Father wasn’t a big man. The three brothers were all taller by several inches. My brother Emerson towered over him. But Father was wiry and as straight as a die. But as I sat and watched him, I was scarcely breath-ing and making not a sound, so that I wouldn’t disturb his rest, I thought he looked so much older than he did before summer planting began.

The heat of the day was heavy on him and even though it was summer, he still wore his plaid shirts with the long sleeves.

So I sat quietly, watching Father breathe, not a muscle stirring in either of us. And I was overcome with a deep sadness, as I looked at him in the rocking chair, his feet in their usual place on the turned-down oven door. I wondered, can someone die from overwork? What if one day he didn’t come home from the back fi elds? What would happen to us?

The sun had gone down behind the grape arbour and the kitchen was darkening, but yet there was daylight and I was still alone at the old pine table, Eaton’s catalogue unopened in front of me, and with my eyes never leaving Father.

He would stay there until everyone came in from outside, banging doors and scraping their feet on the mat, tossing their bats and balls into the

box beside the stove. Mother would stop a moment in front of Father and then she would do what she did every night this time of year: she would tap Father on the shoulder. She may have to do it several times to bring him out of his deep sleep. He would slowly raise his head and look around the kitchen as if he were lost.

I would move myself away from the table and go over to the rocker and pick his pipe up off the fl oor and put the Ottawa Farm Journal on the bake table.

Father would shuffl e over to the bedroom door off the kitchen and he would turn to Everett and tell him to be sure to check the barns before he went to bed. Soon I would hear the creaking of the bed springs and if I listened closely from my spot at the kitchen table, I would hear a deep sigh, followed by soft snores as Father settled down his tired body for the night.

It was just another day, no different than the one before, and no different than the one coming after.

EMC news – The Ottawa Senators have scored with a new partnership.

Senators Sports & Enter-tainment announced on June 18 that the home of the NHL team, Scotiabank Place, will be renamed Canadian Tire Centre.

Ottawa Senators owner Eugene Melnyk said the long-term agreement will include enhanced community and grassroots activities to help get more kids into the game.

The agreement takes effect July 1 and arena-related sig-nage will be in place in time for the 2013-14 NHL season.

Present during the an-nouncement were Sens play-ers Daniel Alfredsson, Chris Neil, Kyle Turris, Patrick Wiercioch, and Chris Phil-lips.

Children from Canadian Tire’s Jumpstart program were also on hand to meet their favourite Sens player af-ter the formal announcement at Scotiabank Place.

Melnyk called the partner-ship one that dated back to the club’s establishment, and which the organization could

be proud.“We have many corporate

and community sponsors that we are very proud to be asso-ciated with, but few who can say they’ve been with us from the very beginning,” he said.

“It is a long and storied partnership that has strength-ened over more than two de-

cades in large part because of a mutual passion for the game of hockey. Needless to say, it’s a partnership we are very proud of, and are pleased to be able to build upon today’s announcement.”

Melnyk said they decided to partner with the corpora-tion not only because of its

iconic brand, but because of its healthy relationship with its customers.

“As our fans know, I am deeply committed to support-ing our great city on so many levels in the past decade, and I want our fans to know, and the great people of our city to know, I will always work very, very hard to grow our team of partners who have those same values of being committed to community service. Canadian

Tire shares those values,” he said.”

In addition, the partnership will see the launch of a new series of marketing and com-munity programs with Cana-dian Tire, and also bring their charities even closer together to serve our community.

“Without a doubt, this is a partnership that is good for our business, our hockey team, and most importantly, good for our community and our fans,” said Melnyk.

GETTING KIDS TO PLAY

Senior vice president of corporate affairs for Canadi-an Tire, Duncan Fulton, said the signing of the agreement allows them the chance to review the contract every de-cade or so, with an unlimited number of tender renewals.

“The deal we have essen-tially allows us to be here as long as we’d ever want,” said Fulton.

“This is a long term deal for us, and our history in sport and in this region should give everyone comfort that we are here for a very, very long time.”

The partnership is a natural fi t, said Fulton, because both organizations share the same passion: sports.

“We take seriously the role that we play in helping Ca-

nadians be active,” he added, before going on to say how Canadian Tire developed a program, Jumpstart, provid-ing children with the oppor-tunity to participate in sports and other activities.

“We knew there were fami-lies that couldn’t afford the expensive after-school and weekend sports, so we started a charity, Jumpstart, that has helped 600,000 families put their kids into a whole range of activities – hockey, soccer, karate and even ballet,” said Fulton.

“We also feel incredibly strongly about making sure all of our kids are more active.”

Ottawa Senators president Cyril Leeder echoed Mel-nyk’s and Fulton’s comments, saying how the Canadian Tire brand has always been associ-ated with hockey across the country.

Scotiabank, he mentioned, will continue to be the offi cial bank of the Ottawa Senators under a long term agreement.

He thanked them for their long time partnership and support over the years.

Part of that contract with Scotiabank was set to expire next year, said Melnyk, and Ottawa Senators were look-ing to take more of a direction towards sports, knowing full well their direction was more towards fi nancial services.

Ottawa Senators Foundation

EMC news - The Sens Foundation raised $101,000 during the 10th annual Scotia-bank Walk, Roll and Run for Roger’s House on June 16.

The event, which took place at Scotia-bank Place, saw more than 800 participants take part in the Tot-Trot, as well as the two-kilometre and fi ve-kilometre routes.

Senators forward Chris Neil joined the festivities and signed autographs for partici-pants.

Title sponsor Scotiabank encouraged its staff to participate and collect pledges for the event. The bank raised more than $25,000 from more than 12 branches spread across the region.

Making a difference for children and

families in the community in which we live and work is very important to us,” said Jeff Darwin, vice-president of Scotiabank’s Ot-tawa River District. “Our entire staff and customers have done whatever they could to help make such a signifi cant contribution.”

Walk, Roll and Run honours the memory of Roger Neilson, a former Senators assis-tant coach who died June 21, 2003, after a lengthy battle with cancer.

This year the event paid tribute to Neilson by asking children to draw a colourful tie for the event T-shirt. Neilson was renowned for wearing a crazy assortment of colourful ties. The contest was a huge success with more than 180 submissions. Noah Barrett, 6, drew the winning design.

This year’s event again featured Roger’s Dream Team - six courageous children cur-rently receiving care from Roger’s House - and Roger’s All-Stars, a group of families who have come together to support fund-raising efforts and celebrate the lives of their deceased children. Both campaigns were a success.

“Our community is so fortunate to have a facility like Roger’s House. The care and support it provides to kids and families is second to none,” said Neil who is honou-rary co-chair of Roger’s House along with his wife, Caitlyn. “Seeing all the kids and families here today to support this annual event is incredible.”

“The Sens Foundation is truly over-whelmed with the support from the commu-nity to come together once again and join us for a fun-fi lled day of celebration,” said

Sens Foundation president Danielle Robin-son. “Their contributions will help provide funding for programs at Roger’s House, servicing the many children and families across the region who call Roger’s House their home-away-from-home.”

Now in its seventh year of operation, Roger’s House has had more than 2,200 admissions, and staff have provided more than 12,000 days of care. The welcoming home-away-from-home atmosphere com-forts children with life-limiting illnesses and their families.

EMC sports - The Ottawa Invad-ers’ turned in their best defensive effort of the season as they handed the Tri-City Outlaws a 30-13 loss at Beckwith Park Saturday, June 22.

The win moves the Invaders into a first place tie with the Montreal Transit in the Northern Football Conference’s East Division. Both teams head into next week’s show-down in Montreal with identical 3-1 records. The Outlaws fall to 3-2.

The Invaders defence held the Outlaws to just six yards passing, with three completions in 18 at-tempts. Christian Contreras and Craig Hodge had interceptions for the Invaders, while Hodge, Mike La-fond and Luka Gagnon had fumble recoveries.

The Invaders took a 1-0 lead on a single by Jeff Morris, and then in-creased their lead later in the first when Jeff Hildreth tossed a 21-yard touchdown pass to Danny Mullins. Leith Fisken fired a pass in the end zone to Dan Buckley for the two-point conversion, giving Ottawa a 9-0 lead.

In the second quarter, the Out-laws got a big break as the Invaders

fumbled a missed field goal attempt in the end zone. Mark Fernandes re-covered the ball in the end zone for the Outlaws. Jeff Mandelker added the extra point to make the score 9-7.

Late in the quarter, defensive lineman Craig Hodge intercepted a pass to set up TJ Williams’ one-yard touchdown. Morris added the con-version to make the score 16-7 at the half.

In the third quarter, Adam Gour-gon scored on a three-yard run and Morris added the conversion to make the score 23-7.

The Outlaws bounced back and put together a long drive, which culminated with quarterback Jeff Nosal scoring on a 10-yard run. The Outlaws went for the two-point con-version, but Nosal’s pass fell incom-plete.

In the fourth quarter, Fisken came in to finish the game for the Invaders, and he tossed a five-yard touchdown pass to former CFL star and Grey Cup legend Eddie Brown. Morris kicked the extra point to make the final 30-13.

Hildreth completed 10 of 15 pass-es for 147 yards and one TD. Mul-lins caught three passes for 58 yards, while Andrew Foss had three catches for 34 yards.

Gourgon had 60 yards on 12 car-riers, while Williams added 29 yards on nine carries.

EMC news - Castlefrank Elemen-tary School celebrated the end of the year and the end of an era on June 20.

The school said goodbye to a num-ber of students and staff, who will be moving to other schools next year. The elementary school will shift to a ju-nior kindergarten to Grade 3 structure as part of new measures to help ease classroom overcrowding.

“We’re marking the end of an era,” said principal Ron Henry during a school assembly. “This place is full of

memories, your memories.”During the celebration, the school

unveiled a new mural, designed by parent Andrea (Andy) Pumphrey and her daughter Jordan, who will attend Katimavik Elementary School next year for Grade 8. The mural will be a permanent reminder of those who graced the halls during their years at the school, said Henry.

“There’s probably close to 400 handprints on there,” said Andy. “Ev-ery single student and all the teachers and the staff (are represented).”

The new mural contains a handprint of every student and staff member,

in the school’s colours, from the past year, along with silhouettes composed from a number of different students.

“I think it’ll be really cool for the younger kids,” said Jordan. “This was once a place where some of their role models were.”

PASSING THE TORCH

A ceremonial passing of the torch also took place.

“As we say goodbye to our older students, we don’t want to lose their wisdom,” said Henry.

Older students who will be attending

new schools next year passed along a symbolic item, along with a few words of wisdom, to the younger students who will stay on at Castlefrank.

Items passed along included a li-brary book to symbolize learning, a notebook to grow knowledge, a soc-cer ball to encourage fitness and good sportsmanship, and a can of food to represent helping others.

The school also planted three fire-bushes in the front of the school.

“The fire-bushes are meant to sig-nify the fiery breath of Castlefrank’s dragon,” said Henry. The dragon is the school mascot. “We celebrate that

we’ll all be entering a new role this fall … to begin our next great adventure.”

Grade 4 students and best friends, Caelan John, Gina Dang, Kate Hirkala and Jenna Marriner, said they’re ex-cited to be moving to Katimavik next year, which will house grades 4 to 8 students, but that they are also sad to be leaving Castlefrank.

Each of the four students helped to shovel some dirt onto the bushes to sig-nify new beginnings.

After the ceremonial planting, stu-dents, staff and parents enjoyed the school fair, which offered a bubble sta-tion, tug-of-war and other activities.

The school unveiled a mural designed by mother-daughter team Andrea (Andy) Pumphrey, left, and Jordan.

EMC news – The Ottawa police paid tribute to officers, emergency personnel, volun-teers, and members of the pub-lic during their annual Commu-nity/Police Awards Ceremony, honouring individuals for their acts of bravery and service to the community on June 18 at Tudor Hall in Ottawa South.

Mayor Jim Watson said he was honoured to attend such a moving ceremony.

“Tonight we are recognizing a number of individuals who have made significant contri-butions to both our community and to the Ottawa Police Ser-vice,” he said.

Chair of the police services board Eli El-Chantiry said it was the police services turn to say “hank you”.

“It’s not just what you do on the job every day, it’s what you do over and beyond the job,” he told the recipients.

Police Chief Charles Borde-leau said in all the circumstanc-es experienced by the award recipients, they manifested at least one, if not all, of the fol-lowing characteristics: dedi-cation, selflessness, bravery,

compassion, and helpfulness. “This ceremony is a way of

thanking you for possessing those admirable qualities and acting upon them,” he said.

“This evening, we thank you for being the person that saw something that needed to be done, and did it. It’s important to recognize people who have shown dedication and commit-ment to our service and this great community.”

On Oct. 2, 2012, Stefan Mc-Clelland was fishing on the Ot-tawa River when he witnessed a small aircraft crash into the water. He immediately made his way to the aircraft to as-sist any occupants.

Recipients: Gary Cardinal and Daniel Kroeger

On Nov. 5, 2012, Gary Cardinal and Daniel Kroeger witnessed a vehicle crashing through a fence and landing in an in-ground pool.

While Cardinal helped the car from submerging further, Kroeger smashed the car win-dows in to unlock the doors to free the individual.

Recipients: Patrick Hill and Scott Isaac

On Dec. 20, 2012, Patrick Hill and Scott Isaac were at the Carleton University campus when a passerby implied that a female was being assaulted in the university tunnel. They both made their way to the tun-

Recipients: David Stewart and Tyler Carron

On Dec. 19, 2012, secu-rity officers David Stewart and Tyler Carron attended a disturbance at a store in Place D’Orleans. An individual had thrown a display at the cashier, and the officers were called to ban him from the store. The officers located the person in the parking lot, and when they approached, the individual pro-duced a knife, and attempted to swipe at one of the officers, narrowly missing him. As the suspect ran, the officers called police and followed the person, giving their location to the po-lice.

Recipient: Warren McRaeOn Dec. 27, 2012, Warren

EMC news - Arbitration reform at the provincial level is needed to keep police costs sustainable, says Ottawa Police Services board chair and West Carleton-March Coun. Eli El-Chantiry.

The Ottawa Police Services board agreed to cap the 2014 police budget with an increase of 1.99 per cent.

This translates into about $3.6 million dollars which will need to be cut. El-Chantiry be-lieves this target will be reached by cutting spending on fuel and storage and decreasing spend-ing on printing and advertising.

Though the nearly two-per-

cent increase was agreed by all parities on Monday, future budgets may not be so easily ratifi ed.

Over the past decade, polic-ing cots have doubled and every

year the increase is a “moving target” besieged by the whims of union arbitration.

“Last time, we budgeted for 2.5 per cent and it came out to three per cent, so that half a per cent along in the police salary budget is over a million dol-lars,” said El-Chantiry.

To avoid such a fi nancial kerfuffl e, deep changes must happen, namely that arbitration should be held at the provincial level, said El-Chantiry.

“My only option is that the province takes on negotiations,” he said. “They negotiate teach-ers’ salaries and benefi ts, for nurses and doctors and others. Why don’t they take on emer-gency services and negotiate their salaries?”

Policing alone doesn’t make a community safer, he claimed.

One out of fi ve police calls are mental health related and support is needed.

“That’s what’s missing in this conversation,” said the chairman. “Let’s go back and evaluate what the police job is and what they should be do-ing.”

El-Chantiry has been push-ing for arbitration reform since

2004 and believes all emergen-cy services should fall under that umbrella.

“Fire always sits on their hands waiting for the police to negotiate their contract and then they’ve been asked to be given the same thing,” he said. “It’s happened in the past.”

“Where is the sustainability here?” he added.

There needs to be a balance in what the city can afford to

pay, what police deserve to be paid and what is being paid.

Every half per cent increase in the policing budget equals to about $1.3 million that the city must pay.

“That’s why I put the call out to the province,” said El-Chan-tiry. “Like either you fi x arbi-tration so we have something balance here or you take on the negotiations with all emergency services.”

Province should step in to help arbitration: El-Chantiry

Two workers at a Hunt Club-area day care have been fi red after allegedly using masking tape to keep children in their cots during nap time. Three or four children were involved in the incidents at the day care at Bayview Public School, but none were injured, according to re-ports.

The early childhood educators were suspend-ed and later fi red following an investigation by the nursery in February, by the Ottawa School Day Nursery, a not-for-profi t organization that leases 13 facilities at elementary schools from the Ottawa public school board.

“They don’t fall under the school district,” said Hyacinth Haddad, spokesperson for the board.

Mark Fisher, trustee for Gloucester-South-gate/Osgoode, said he was taken aback by the reports of abuse at the Bayview centre.

“I was just shocked when I read it,” he said. “I was just fl oored.”

He said the self-governing nursery will fall under the board’s governance starting in Sep-tember.

“OSDN will be merged back into the school board so we can use those assets and those people to help run the full-day kindergarten pro-gram,” he said.

INCIDENT REPORTED

President of the Ottawa School Day Nursery Inc. Deborah Cooper said three or four children of unknown ages were not injured by the taping.

The investigation was done in response to complaints from parents after it was revealed a child had been taped to a cot, Cooper said.

Cooper said she was not aware of an incident of this nature happening already before.

Cooper said she contacted the Children’s Aid Society and the Ministry of Children and Youth Services, as she is required to do, as they are responsible for Ottawa School Day Nursery Inc.

EMC news - The United Way Ottawa announced it will be investing million dollars in the community this year.

The United Way made the announcement that $24.5 million will be invested to programs, organizations and front-line services this year at the Michele Heights Com-munity Centre on June 17. About half of the funding will go directly to three of the

organization’s focused areas: “growing up great,” “belong-ing to community” and “turn-ing lives around.”

Jamie McCracken, chair-man of the United Way board, attended the event, saying this funding announcement was only made possible because of the support from donors.

“Today’s announcement shows that thanks to the gen-erosity of our donors,” he said. “You can see how this work is changing lives today and contributing to the positive

community improvements we want to see tomorrow.”

The organization also re-leased, for the fi rst time, a report which details how do-nations made to the organiza-tion help contribute to change in the city at the announce-ment.

The organization changed the way the way it allocates money raised from its an-nual campaign more than two years ago, crafting priorities and funding criteria in order to appeal to donors.

Jeffrey Dale, chairman of the United Way’s community services cabinet, said the new report points to the impact of donations have on the com-munity’s future.

“Donors want to know how their contributions are invest-ed and how they are making a difference,” he said.

In March, United Way an-nounced that $30 million was raised for the community campaign.

Of the $24 million to be handed out, $12.8 million will be directed towards front-line programs, community-wide initiatives, targeted commu-nity investment and research focused on United Way’s three focused areas.

“Growing up great” will receive $2.9 million to sup-port community development work, with 29 front-line pro-grams delivered by 20 agen-cies receiving $2.2 million, the Ottawa Child and Youth Initiative and other commu-nity development strategies receiving $299,000 and the targeted community invest-ment receiving $$383,000.

“Belonging to community” will receive $3.9 million, with $2.6 million being given to 32 agencies that run 45 different

programs in the city and $1.3 million will be divided to two community-wide initiatives, Hire Immigrants Ottawa and the Employment Accessibil-ity Resource Network.

“Turning lives around” will receive $4 million, with $3.3 million of the funding going to 27 agencies who run 31 programs in the city. The remaining $302,000 will be given to other community development strategies and $340,000 will be handed out in grants and targeted com-munity investment funding.

United Way’s priority goal to strengthen the capacity of social services sector in Ot-

tawa will receive $687,000 with $599,000 of this fund-ing will be handed out to fi ve agencies’ fi ve programs. The remaining $88,000 will go towards community develop-ment strategies.

The United Way will use $1.3 million for work related to research, evaluation and management of the invest-ment in priority goal part-ners’ programs and services that support the achievement of priority goals.

At the request of donors, $11.7 million will be hand-ed out to more than 4,200 other registered Canadian charities.

EMC news - The famous quote that begins with “You can please some of the people all the time …” can be applied to almost all major infrastruc-ture projects, and the city’s western LRT plan is no dif-ferent.

The June 17 open house for the revised “Richmond Un-derground” plan, held at Otta-wa city hall, brought residents into contact with planners, city engineers and political representatives, who all did their best to explain the de-tails of the $980 million plan. Changes totaling $80 million had been made to the previous iteration of the plan, unveiled in April, to mitigate the effect on residents living close to the planned route.

Reaction to the revised plan depended on who you talked to. The anticipated effects for residents living close to the line’s proposed route were still seen as too great in some cases. For others, making the best plan to benefi t the most people was paramount.

The Richmond Under-ground route has the LRT vehicles leaving an expanded Dominion Station at the west-ern entrance to the existing Transitway trench, going un-derground about 300 metres west of that point, near the northern edge of Rochester Field.

The line follows the Rich-mond Road corridor (under-ground, using a cut-and-cover technique) upon reaching Cleary Avenue (where Cleary Station would be located), heads past the proposed sta-tion at New Orchard Avenue before turning south and leav-ing the tunnel to meet the ex-isting Southwest Transitway at Lincoln Fields.

Opposition had been fi erce to the fi rst version of the plan, which would have had the LRT operating at-grade until reaching the proposed Cleary Avenue station. Other con-cerns raised including blocked access to Ottawa River bike paths, noise and visual pollu-tion.

While the city says pathway access would be preserved and effects mitigated, opposition began as soon as the revised plan was unveiled the week prior to the open house.

A local community group called Underground Solution, led by Skead Street resident Leslie Taylor, denounced the modifi ed plan at the outset, saying that the entire western LRT line should be buried.

Rich Brandau, a member of the group who lives on West-minster Avenue, sat down with an engineer at the open house to discuss his group’s con-cerns. He came away from the meeting still concerned about the greenspace along the Sir John A. Macdonald Parkways, between Cleary Ave. and Do-minion Station.

Despite a large portion of it being buried, surface veg-etation would have to be re-moved and then replanted, he said, leading to a period of de-forestation before it all grows back.

“As a capital city, the view (heading downtown) on the parkway is important,” said Brandau, adding the at-grade stretch would still act as a bar-rier.

“It is just a few acres (of land), but it’s all there is be-tween the city and the park-way. It’s there for a reason, and it’s not without cost.”

Despite this, he said the plans show access to the river pathways being “way better than it was before.”

While he said burying the entire line would solve much of the community concerns, Brandau stated he would pre-fer to see more early focus on the use of Carling Avenue as a secondary transit route.

City treasurer Marian Simulik said cost is the decid-ing factor in why the city is proposing the Richmond Un-derground plan. Costing of al-ternate routes had pegged the Carling corridor at $2.31 bil-lion (via the O-Train corridor) and $2.2 billion (via Churchill Avenue), thus making them too expensive.

“It’s a bit of an engineer-ing challenge,” Simulik said of the Carling options, adding that the price tag for burying the entire western LRT line would also be prohibitively expensive.

Simulik said the beauty of LRT – besides offering less congestion – is in the inherent operational cost savings when compared to internal combus-

tion-engined buses running on exposed asphalt roadways. A 20 per cent reduction in op-erating costs can be expected, she said, minus the initial cap-ital investment.

Kitchissippi Coun. Kather-ine Hobbs said city engineers have worked hard to mitigate the LRT’s local impact, but stated they have to work with-in a $1 billion envelope.

“What we’re trying to do, as a city, is to mitigate the largest concerns as they were given to us at the April 25 meeting, and the ongoing communications at that time,” said Hobbs.

“Although there is a group asking for everything to be underground, the likelihood of that happening is slim because of the budget we’re working with, and probably some en-gineering issues. The area we have underground is the area in front of the houses. The area we do not have underground is one small area – there are no houses there.”

With opposition to the re-vised plan limited to distinct geographical regions and per-ceived impact to those neigh-bourhoods, Hobbs said resi-dents need to keep in mind the impact to other communities

that would result from using extra fi nancial resources to serve one neighbourhood.

“My role is to gather all of the concerns from all the different interest groups, and there are a lot of them -- one group does not speak for ev-eryone, one group does not represent everyone,” said Hobbs.

“There are a number of dif-ferent neighbourhoods, condo complexes, interest groups -- what we have to do here is work with all of that, all of the feedback, and design some-thing that is affordable and is a good transit solution for the city. What we have to do is keep it under $1 billion, or we don’t have transit going fur-ther west, south and east, and that is not acceptable … . The cost of putting track to Kanata could be $400 million. It is unjustifi ed to say I’m going to take that $400 million and ap-ply it to a 300 metre section in Westboro.”

Meetings and refi nement to the plan will continue for the next two years before the city goes to the National Capital Commission for approval and begins seeking federal and provincial funding.

Residents discuss LRT options during an open house at city hall on June 17.


EMC news - A new monument commemorating the War of 1812

will soon begin taking shape, des-tined for a permanent spot on Parlia-ment Hill.

The National Capital Commission announced last week that it had cho-

sen a winning design for the monu-ment, which will overlook the Na-tional War Memorial and Wellington Street from the high ground at the southeast corner of Parliament Hill.

Toronto-based artist Adrienne Alison’s contribution, titled Triumph Through Diversity, was selected following a design competition and lengthy judging process that involved a public open house. Dur-ing the March 20 event, residents weighed in on two fi nalists.

“The War of 1812 was an incred-ibly important turning point in Can-ada’s history,” said Alison via media release. “As a sculptor, it’s a great honour to be selected to create this monument for Parliament Hill so that all Canadians can connect with this pivotal time in our history.”

Created to mark the 200th anniver-sary of the beginning of the war that saw colonial and fi rst nations forces repel an American invasion of Upper and Lower Canada, the monument will be unveiled in the fall of 1814. The war brought with it a new sense of national unity within the fl edgling British colony, leading to expansion and growth and paving the way for Confederation a half century later.

Triumph Through Diversity con-sists of seven bronze fi gures perched close together atop a granite pedes-tal, fl anked by two small stone boats. The monument represents the “com-ing together” of the diverse array of combatants in the confl ict, who each set aside their differences and took up arms to repel the invasion.

Alison’s work illustrates the two theatres of that war, which occurred on both land and water. Etchings into the stone will tell the story of the War of 1812 to Parliament Hill visitors.

At March’s open house, Alison said she wanted to create a monu-ment that was educational, but also easy to understand.

INTERNATIONAL BIRD AREA

Did you know that there is a large area along both sides of the Ottawa River that is designated as an International Bird Area? This is due to its importance as both a fly zone for thousands of species who migrate north each year as well as a nesting area for many birds. I learned this at a presentation at the Museum of Nature last week where an informative exhibit is still on display. The area runs from Britannia to Constance Bay along the former course of the Ottawa River which is now swampy and contains several small lakes. Birds are an important part of the world’s ecosystem and I particularly am happy to see that many eat mosquitoes! A good place to visit is where Watt’s Creek empties into the Ottawa River (follow the road leading to the Connaught Range to the river).

EMC news - Love camping but don’t have a car? No problem.

That’s the message the creators of Parkbus are spreading to Ot-tawans, now that the provincial park bus service that began in To-ronto three years ago has come to the capital.

Parkbus founders Boris Issaev and Alex Berlyand joined a group of campers at the Mountain Equip-ment Co-op in Westboro for the Parkbus’ inaugural trip from Ot-tawa to Algonquin Park on Friday morning. With stops at camp-grounds, canoe access points and lodges, the bus is designed to open up the province’s largest park to urbanites who don’t own their own vehicles.

“We’ve been running for the past three years out of Toronto -- rider-ship has been increasing, things have been going well, so we’ve started a new pilot project out of Ottawa,” said Berlyand.

From its humble beginnings, starting with seven outdoor enthu-siasts and a white van, the initiative soon attracted hundreds of Toronto-nians to the service. Ontario Parks quickly signed on to support the project, with funding also coming from the provincial government.

Mountain Equipment Co-op, not surprisingly, is a strong supporter and partner of this initiative and many others. The outfi tter has been funding Ontario Parks’ lifejacket loaner program for several years as a safety initiative.

After the inaugural park run,

another trip will take campers and kayakers to the park in August and again in September.

Bradley Fauteux, managing director of Ontario Parks, called Parkbus a “green, accessible pol-icy” that all governments should support, referred to Algonquin Park as “the crown jewel” of Ontario’s parks system.

Algonquin Park was created in 1893 as the fi rst provincial park in Ontario, preserving a vast tract of pristine wilderness for residents to enjoy, and to protect.

“We’re really committed to providing sustainable recreation and camping ongoing, so Parkbus is the kind of initiative we hope to support more of in the future,” said Fauteux. “Certainly, the en-trepreneurship shown by these two young men is marvelous.”

Ottawa Centre MPP and Labour Minister Yasir Naqvi said he hopes to see the Parkbus service continue in his community.

“We’re calling it a pilot right now, but hopefully we can make it permanent,” said Naqvi. “I think it’s such a neat idea. If you don’t own a car, you still have the right to go to Algonquin Park and have a grand old time.”

Information on the Parkbus’ schedule and destinations can be found at www.parkbus.ca

Parkbus founders Alex Berlyand and Boris Issaev prepare to board the inaugural bus from Ottawa to Algonquin Park outside Mountain Equipment Co-op on June 21.

EMC news - The bond cre-ated between those in the fi re service lasts for years, even decades. And that is why a 40th anniversary reunion of all for-mer West Carleton township volunteer fi refi ghters is being planned.

If West Carleton, which was formed when the townships of Fitzroy, Torbolton and Huntley amalgamated in 1974, hadn’t been amalgamated into the new city of Ottawa, West Car-leton, and its fi re department, would have turned 40 in 2014.

“It’s a chance to get togeth-er, see old friends, tell some stories,” said co-organizer and former volunteer fi refi ghter David Burke

Working with the current administration of the Ottawa Fire Services (OFS), who now provides fi re protection to the former township, organiz-ers still need to gauge interest among former West Carleton members and current Ottawa fi refi ghters, stationed in the

West Carleton area.The event will be open to

all who have worn the West Carleton Fire Department (WCFD) crest, or worked in the area as in the case of the current OFS members. Atten-dance and interest could fl uc-tuate.

The old West Carleton de-partment had 120 members working from its six stations at the time of amalgamation. Turn over in any volunteer fi re ser-vice always occurs and Burke believes there could be several hundred in attendance, if the idea for this event is well re-ceived.

A lot of the new current

men and women who work for OFS at West Carleton stations, might not know the history of the old department or area, said Burke

Together they went thought many fi re, prevented devas-tation and helped countless people.

“Whether it’s fi ghting a neighbour’s fi re, assisting them in a medical emergency or run-ning a fundraising or charity event, you have a vested inter-est in your own community,” said Burke. “You never know if it’s going to be your neigh-bour who needs help.”

He hopes that this com-munity spirit will translate in a pronounced interest in the reunion.

Former West Carleton fi re-fi ghters, as well as current OFS members working in the area, as well as former dispatchers, or anyone who was at all as-sociated with the WCFD inter-ested in such an affair should email him at [email protected] with contact informa-tion as well as former or cur-rent affi liation.

West Carleton � re� ghters 40th anniversary reunion

It’s a chance to get together, see old friends, tell some stories. DAVID BURKE

EMC news –The Perley and Rideau Veterans’ Centre con-tinues to grow its affordable housing options for seniors.

The official opening of the first phase of 45 new afford-able rental housing units for the facility’s Seniors Village was held on June 19.

The project is a partnership between all three levels of gov-ernment.

There to mark the grand opening was Premier Kathleen Wynne, Alice Wong, Minister of State for seniors and Mayor Jim Watson.

The hospital received $4.5 million in funding from the federal and provincial gov-ernments under the Canada-Ontario Affordable Housing Program Agreement to create more housing for veterans and seniors living on low income.

One of the largest not-for-profit long-term care centres in Ontario, the centre has expand-ed its programs and services to create the Perley Rideau Se-niors Village, which includes two buildings with 139 spe-cially designed apartments, as-sisted living services for those in need at home or in the new apartments, respite care to help caregivers of family members with dementia, convalescent care, and various on-site health oriented services.

“Our government is invest-ing in affordable housing here in Ottawa, to help create jobs and improve the quality of life of our seniors,” said Minister Wong.

Wynne said putting seniors first is a priority for the Ontario government.

“It is part of our proud his-tory, but it is also an essential factor in our collective vision for the future,” she said.

“As Ontario grows, as our population ages, we have a re-sponsibility to continue to care for one another, To keep push-ing ourselves to adapt to the needs of our communities.

We must find ways to of-fer people the lifestyle they deserve and the attention they require. And that’s why this new Seniors Village is so im-portant.”

With the passing of the provincial budget, she said, it means they can move forward with their plan to invest $260 million this year in home and community care across On-tario.

“That’s an unprecedented investment, but it is absolutely necessary if we are to adapt to the shifting demographics we see in our communities,” Wynne added.

She mentioned the govern-ment would continue with their Action Plan for Seniors,

which provides coverage for prescription drugs, in order to ease the financial strains many confront.

The federal and provincial funding is balanced by more than $1 million in municipal financial incentives and by a $32-million mortgage from In-frastructure Ontario.

The Perley and Rideau Vet-erans’ Health Centre provides quality care for seniors, serv-ing veterans and an increasing number of other seniors from the community.

Ottawa South MP David McGuinty called the moment a proud one for seniors and veterans across Ottawa and the

province.“This really does show how

we can cooperate across all lev-els of government,” he said.

“It was the right thing to do. It’s exactly the type of model we need to replicate over and over again.

McGuinty said he hoped to see more of an engaging discus-sion take place on this topic.

“It’s not like we need fewer (long-term care facilities),” he said.

In the future, McGuinty add-ed, they need to ensure the right tax incentives are put in place for seniors, and be able to pro-vide seniors with more options – long-term care versus private home care, for instance, deci-sions families struggle with as their loved ones grow older and require round-the-clock assis-tance.

“This is a good moment to be inspired by Perley and Ride-au,” he said.


Community and political leaders celebrate the official opening of the new affordable housing wing at the Perley and Rideau Veterans’ Centre on June 19.
