Collision investigatedStaff

News - Ottawa police are investigating the scene of a Cumberland car accident.

The accident took place at 2295 Dunning Rd., near Innes Road, on April 7 around 4 p.m.

The two-vehicle accident sent both drivers to the hos-

pital with non-life threatening injuries.

At the hospital, medical staff became concerned about one of the drivers due to their advanced age and risk the in-juries could be a serious risk to their survival.

Police mapped the scene and turned the investigation over to patrol services.

Competitive program taking off at TumblersBrier [email protected]

Sports - What a flip. Last year, Tumblers Gym-

nastics sent a lone gymnast to the Eastern Canadian Cham-pionship. This year they qual-ified 12.

Several years after shift-ing focus to provide programs

for competitive gymnasts, the Orléans program has more gymnasts excelling at a higher level.

Tumblers president Mark Faig said it was a historic year for the club, sending 24 gym-nasts to the provincial cham-pionship, held April 3 to 6 in Windsor, Ont.

“Our competitive coach-

ing program has advanced tremendously in recent years, and now we’re seeing the re-sults of that,” said general manager Lindsay Bennett.

The gym held an athlete homecoming on April 8 to welcome back the provincial competitors.

Recreational classes took a pause to welcome all the com-

petitors into the gym and hear about the club’s impressive medal haul.

Six gymnasts were named to the provincial team, and many won additional individ-ual event medals.

Two gymnasts, Julie-Anne Fiset and Eric Gauthier, will compete at the national cham-pionship, held this May in Ot-

tawa at Carleton University. “It’ll be a huge delegation,”

said Faig, of the people who will cheer on Julie-Anne and Eric.

Eric competes in the na-tional open level, while Ju-lie-Anne is in the novice high performance division.

News - The city is looking at getting out of the business of building new suburban parks and instead letting developers do the work.

That’s a proposal being looked at as part of an inter-nal review of the city’s devel-opment charges bylaw. De-velopers already pay for the parks to be built — it’s part of the charge for development, which covers the construction

of new infrastructure and fa-cilities needed to support the larger population when a new development goes in.

Now the city is questioning whether it makes more sense to let builders take the lead in planning and constructing

parks in a schedule that better suits their plans for building new communities, mainly in the suburbs.

“Should the city continue to collect development charges for parks, or should the de-velopers just build the parks themselves?” said John Moser, the city’s general manager of planning and growth manage-ment. “There has been a lot of interest from the development community to do that.”

It’s something Moser and his staff are considering pro-posing to the city’s planning committee and council next month. While it’s just one part of a larger review of how the city collects fees to cover the cost of expanding services to accommodate development, it would be the most significant shift, Moser said.

“If that comes to fruition, it would be a big change in the bylaw,” he said.

Since the planning and con-struction of new parks in the urban core works differently than a master-planned new suburb, planning staff are con-sidering keeping a fee for parks in the development charge for downtown construction.

One reason the developers are interested in constructing the parks themselves instead of paying the city to do it is they would be able to build parks faster, Moser said. The city has to wait until it collects

enough money from develop-ment charges as different phas-es of homes in a new commu-nity are built, so the park often isn’t put in until residents have been living there for some time. Letting the developers do it would give them the flex-ibility to put in a park before residents move in, which is something builders prefer to do because it’s a good selling feature, Moser said.

“More and more develop-ers want to have the parks ready when the people move into their subdivisions,” Moser said, and many builders ask the city for “front-ending agree-ments” to hand over more of the money the developer will eventually owe to the city up-front so the park can be built sooner.

“I think there is almost

an expectation now as more (developers) do that, that the parks will be ready,” he said.

But that will also mean the city wouldn’t know which new parks were going to be built each year. Right now, there is a list of upcoming park proj-ects, but that responsibility could be shifted over to the development industry if the changes are recommended and approved.

The shift wouldn’t necessar-ily mean layoffs or a reduced need for city parks planners, Moser said.

Those staffers would still be needed, but their work would be done at the beginning of the process when developers work with the city to put together a master plan for their commu-nities.

“We would be involved as it evolves through the design, working with the industry,” Moser said. “Whatever is built has to be built to city stan-dards.

“We would see the same quality of parks. They’ll just be built on a more timely ba-sis,” Moser said. “I think the only thing that will change is: ‘Gee, it’s done.’ It’s quicker.”

A background study on the revisions to the development charges bylaw will be posted on ottawa.ca a few weeks be-fore it will be considered at a May planning committee meeting.

Developers could be tapped to build city parks

Sports - Any given Wednesday morning, students can be found pedal-ing away on stationary bikes, stepping through rungs of a ladder, or whipping a heavy rope up and down at Cairine Wilson Secondary School.

Students have been participating in an 8 a.m. boot camp all year.

The weekly boot camp is a new program that physical education and science teacher Sean Sacharuk started running in September.

Sacharuk has been a strength and conditioning coach in the past, and wanted to offer students a chance to take part in a training program without the need to buy a gym membership.

“I used to own my own gym, so I thought I’d give back to these stu-dents,” he said. “We’re trying to pro-mote healthy active living.”

The boot camp is run in stations, with agility ladders for students to jump through, cones to pivot around, and special stools to leap up onto. Students cycle through each week’s 10 stations two or three times over the hour.

The department received funding from the provincial high school sports association and the parent council to purchase the equipment students use.

Many of the teens taking part in the program play on school teams, but any-one – staff or students – is welcome to come out to the program, regardless of fitness level.

Rugby players Ally Baker and So-phie LeBlanc have both been enjoying the boot camps and training alongside some of the school’s other athletes.

Ally said she enjoys the training be-cause it’s run by an experienced coach and is very professional.

About 30 students were coming per week near the start of the school year, but numbers keep growing, with up to 60 participants taking part in a week.

“We don’t have to pay to be at a gym,” Sophie said. “It’s a good envi-ronment.”

Friends, family host leukemia swab-a-thonMichelle [email protected]

News - Family, friends and complete strangers came out in droves to help support one man’s fight with leukemia.

Westboro’s Gezelig res-taurant held a Swab-a-thon on March 29 in an effort to find a bone marrow match for Al Carpenter, who is suffer-ing from acute lymphoblastic leukemia. Carpenter is a long-time family friend of Gezelig owner, Stephen Beckta.

“He wasn’t able to find a donor,” Beckta said. “We are under no illusions … the odds of finding a match are minute, but this event will also help sign up more donors for the stem cell donor bank.”

The cancer is in Carpen-ter’s blood stem cells in his bone marrow.

Beckta said his friend’s only chance of survival lies in finding a match for a bone marrow transplant.

Although Carpenter’s odds of finding a match are slim, Beckta and Carpenter’s fam-ily were eager to spread the word about the Canadian Blood Services’ need for more donors. Beckta said the biggest need for donors is for men between the ages of 17 and 35.

The event swabbed partici-pants’ cheeks with Q-tips.

Whether or not they were a match, those who signed up were also adding their DNA information to the Canadian Blood Services’ stem cell bank.

“The odds of being a match or being called are 0.05 per cent,” Beckta said. “But it’s important to still make sure people understand that.”

According to the Canadian Blood Services, there are two types of donations: bone mar-row stem cell donations are performed under anesthesia, with special, hollow needles to withdraw liquid marrow from the back of the pelvic bones. Normally about a litre of fluid is taken and the pro-

cedure usually takes about 45 to 90 minutes. Donors are typically discharged from the hospital the same day.

Peripheral blood stem cell donations harvest stem cells from the blood. The donor will receive drug injections

every day for four to five days. The stem cells are collected by donating blood, which is passed through a centrifuge, where the stem cells can be separated. The blood is then returned back to the donor,

using a loop system.A donor’s bone marrow is

completely replaced within four to six weeks.

If you missed out on the event, but still want to see if you are a match, Beckta said

there are many ways to do-nate. Visit onematch.ca for more information, to order a home swab kit, sign up to be a donor or find local swab-a-thon events in your neigh-bourhood.

Worse construction season than last year: cityLaura [email protected]

News - Ottawa residents should brace for an even busier road construction season than last year, the city says.

From highway lane restric-tions and ramp closures to road resurfacing and the complete closure of Belfast Road and St. Joseph Boulevard, the upcom-ing roadworks are sure to put more bumps in your commute than last year, said Phil Landry, director of traffic operations.

The message again this year is clear: walk, cycle or take the bus instead. OC Transpo is adding ridership capacity, especially in the east end, to account for anticipated traf-fic snarls. There will be space for 5,200 riders in the morning peak and 4,600 riders on the way home from work between the downtown and Orléans. This year, 540 buses will have bike racks.

Landry said commuters have been spared what would have been the most massive

construction headache to date: all-day lane restrictions the construction contractor pro-posed for eight weeks on High-way 417. The city rejected that outright, Landry said.

“It would create unimagina-ble delays and was unaccept-able for the city and residents,” he said.

Instead, the (417) will be reduced to two lanes between Nicholas Street and the split only on weeknights and on weekends from 9 p.m. on Fri-day to 6 a.m. on Monday for

six weeks starting in late May.“The work between Nicho-

las and the split continues to be our single biggest challenge with respect to overall mobil-ity throughout the city this year with impacts being felt to the east and west well outside of the project’s limits,” Landry said.

Highway 417 ramp closures will also make motorists’ lives more difficult throughout the summer. It will start with the northbound Vanier Parkway on-ramp to the westbound 417

closing for two weeks later this month, followed by the southbound on-ramp to the eastbound 417 closing for four weeks in May.

The northbound on-ramp on Riverside Drive to the west-bound 417 will close down this month, causing delays.

The northbound St. Lau-rent Boulevard on-ramp to the westbound 417 will close for four weeks in May and June, while the southbound on-ramp on St. Laurent will only shut down on weekends for four weeks in May and June.

Overall, the city will spend $127 million on 80 projects to renew roads and utilities or build new infrastructure repre-senting 50 kilometres of roads in total. Four million dollars of that is slated to improve congested intersections, while $2 million is dedicated exclu-sively to 13 projects to build 6.5 km of new cycling facili-ties. That includes the start of construction on a pedestrian bridge over the Rideau River, connecting Somerset Street East in Sandy Hill with Don-ald Street in Overbrook. Some road construction budgets also include cycling facilities.

The spring roadwork season will kick off with street sweep-ing starting April 14. Concen-trated operations downtown will take place until April 17, including parking restrictions that affect permit holders. Signs will be posted, similar to the process used to clear snow-banks.

ROAD CLOSURES

By far the longest-running traffic impact will be the two-year complete closure of Bel-fast Road between Coventry Road and Trainyards, Landry said. Tremblay Road will re-main open, but the long-term closure is needed for construc-tion on the depot for light-rail trains, in addition to the re-habilitation of the road and bridge.

It’s not the only long-term

closure: St. Joseph Boulevard, a major artery in Orléans, will be shut down completely be-tween Tenth Line and Dairy Drive all summer.

Major impacts on Lees Av-enue will begin in June but the highway overpass will be com-pletely closed in the fall. Work will begin on the foundation of the highway overpass and pillars will be repositioned in June. The new bridge will be moved into place in October.

During that 12-week period, the overpass will be closed to vehicles, cyclists and pedestri-ans. OC Transpo route 16 will also be detoured. Reconstruc-tion of the rest of Lees Avenue to Main Street will take place during the same time.

However, the reconstruction of Main Street itself has been delayed again and is now slat-ed to begin next year, Landry said.

CONSTRUCTION PROJECTS

The MacDonald Cartier Bridge to Gatineau will see lane reductions this year as the federal government undertakes some rehabilitation work. The traffic control and impact from that project will extend down King Edward Avenue, Landry said.

Watermain work on St. Laurent Boulevard, Coventry and Ogilvie roads will restart in May.

Work on the Orléans water-main will also affect Youville Drive, St. Joseph and Jeanne D’Arc boulevards, but the con-struction schedule hasn’t been decided.

The city will also spend more than $51 million to re-pave roads this year. The rough winter took a toll on roads but no additional work is planned because of the pothole-filled spring, however, Landry said the city re-arranged the sched-ule to repave some streets sooner.

Bumpy Highway 174 will be resurfaced this spring and summer.

Q and AWHAT IS YOUR SIGNATURE DISH? So many to choose from, I like our veal Picata, it’s so tender you can cut it with a fork. We only use best loins money can buy and serve with a side of fresh pasta and a combination of crispy market vegetables. On the other hand my brother likes our Cannelloni. Like all of our dishes, this dish is made with home-made pasta rolled out and stuffed with braised milk-fed veal, baked with Bolognese sauce and mozzarella. Another favourite is our linguine di Pesce which includes sautéed scallops, tiger shrimps, mussels, white wine, garlic, and your choice of tomato or cream sauce.

GUILTY PLEASURE?Our home made gluten free chocolate cake is to die for, or our dream-bomba which is a peanut butter gelato surrounding a caramel center and covered with an outer layer of chocolate or our house specialty tiramisu along with a fresh ground cappuccino.

PEOPLE ARE SURPRISED TO KNOW?How good our pizza is, maybe because we are a fine dining restaurant and people that don’t know our history or don’t realize that our parents owned one of Ottawa’s first pizzerias in the west end. Our parents have been serving the best since 1973. The other surprise for first-time customers is how pleasant, elegant and inviting our restaurant is. We are located in an easily-accessed strip mall and people don’t expect our high level of restaurant service and are pleasantly surprised. We can’t control misconceptions from outward appearance but we can sure control the mood and atmosphere on the inside.

FAVORITE QUOTE?“We believe in what we create.”

SECRET TO YOUR SUCCESS?It’s love, passion and the commitment to our craft that equals success and being able to recognize and appreciate and our clients and friends. We are owner-operated from the kitchen to the front of the

house. When you enter our Napoli’s you are in our home. What we do best is make you feel at home.

DON’T LEAVE YOUR BUSINESS WITHOUT TRYING?Our house Salad dressing, our meatballs, our Zucchini and of course our home made Ravioli appetizer.

HOW DID YOU START YOUR BUSINESS?We started our business November 1993 and are celebrating our 20th anniversary in Stittsville. My brother Milad and I grew up in the restaurant Industry and we decided to branch out on our own along with our spouses and open in Stittsville. We had big ideas, passion and a good work ethic. We took over an existing but closed restaurant and made it into something wonderful. Here we are today, still full of excitement, energy and new ideas that make us a desirable restaurant and a destination spot in the community.

Long-time politician has represented downtown for 29 yearsLaura [email protected]

News - After almost 30 years representing downtown residents, Somerset Coun. Diane Holmes announced she is dropping out of the re-elec-tion race.

By the time residents head to the polls on Oct. 27, Holm-es will have served the ward for three decades.

While she still has her health and energy to burn, Holmes said it’s time for her

to start enjoying life more.“I’ve been here for a long

time. I think I need to get a life,” she said. “I just want to get out and see the world.” Holmes’ April 3 announce-ment that she would retire at the end of this term of council clears the way for a field of candidates who have already signed up to run for her role.

“I think the rumour was out. Certainly, I’ve been here for a long time,” Holmes said.

There are already five oth-

er candidates registered for the Somerset Ward election – Martin Canning, Thomas McVeigh, Jeff Morrison, De-nis Schryburt and Lili Wee-men.

But Holmes said it was the news that her former as-sistant, Catherine McKenney, planned to run that made the veteran councillor feel com-fortable stepping down.

McKenney, who has worked as an aide to deputy city manager Steve Kanel-lakos for five years, also

served as an assistant to for-mer Kanata city and regional councillor, Alex Munter, among other political roles. She has taken an unpaid leave of absence from her job in or-der to run, but has yet to reg-ister as a candidate.

When McKenney ap-proached Holmes about six weeks ago to ask if she was considering leaving city hall, Holmes said she told McK-enney she would retire if McKenney ran. Holmes had already registered as a can-

didate.“I wasn’t going to retire,

and therefore I signed up, un-less there is someone coming along who I thought would reflect the values of the peo-ple of Somerset Ward,” Hol-mes said.

McKenney said she would not have run against Holmes because she shares the same values and goals as her for-mer boss.

“I want to carry on that tra-dition of strong leadership,” McKenney said. Diane Holmes

The most serious flaw among the many, many flaws in the Fair Elections Act is its author, MP Pierre Poilievre. The entire exercise should be scrapped

because he is unfit to draw up such a bill, let alone maintain his position as democratic reform minister. Poilievre’s unprecedented attack on Chief Electoral Officer Marc Mayrand’s integrity, impartiality, and motives – saying the referee shouldn’t be wearing a team jersey – was compounded when he claimed Mayrand is trying to pad his power and budget.

“He wants more power, a bigger budget and less accountability,” Poilievre told the Senate legal and constitutional affairs committee on April 8.

It’s a baseless claim, of course. It even runs contrary to Mayrand’s past actions (always a good indicator of future actions).

Instead, Poilievre’s bill reveals his party wants a bigger war chest, less accountability and more power to win elections by preventing non-Con-servatives voters from casting their ballot. It encourages bigger contributions to larger parties by making campaign financing loopholes, creating less accountability from a weakened Elections Canada that uncovered the in-and-out scandal and other dirty tricks.

Mayrand aside, Poilievre also levelled baseless attacks against provincial chief electoral officers, scholars, public intellectuals, columnists, experts from various countries around the world, and protesters armed with petitions delivered to 25 MPs’ offices in Canada, including his own.

Perhaps conservative Preston Manning, who recently criticized the bill, is next.

The point is that elections experts are attacked en masse and without cause by Poilievre.

He’s not politely pointing out a dfference of opinion he has with critics – he’s questioning their motives.

Since he is presumably an expert on elections, as he is the democratic reform minister and spent some time thinking about the bill before drafting it, that is reason enough to disqualify him from penning it.

Elections experts, according to his reasoning, ought to leave the Fair Elections Act up to someone with less specialized knowledge and, say, more common sense.

Poilievre has proven that he is not intellectu-ally capable of addressing arguments against the bill. Personal attacks are the surest sign of a flawed intelligence.

It’s time to scrap the Fair Elections Act.

Attempts by government to change the way people behave are often criticized as “social engineering” and often the criticism is justified.

But sometimes the attempts actually help.This is what we draw from an event last

week where the city and Ottawa Public Health dropped some statistics on smoking. It’s way down in Ottawa. After stalling for a few years, the smoking rate has dropped to 11 per cent. It was 15 per cent three years ago. According to Ottawa Public Health, ours is the lowest smok-ing rate in the province.

The city can’t claim full credit for this. What has happened here is part of a nationwide trend that has been going on for decades. In 1999, the smoking rate was 23.2 per cent. In 1985, it was 35 per cent.

Some of these figures come from different sources, so comparisons aren’t exact, but you get the idea: in the last 30 years, the percentage of smokers has been halved, or declined by two-thirds, depending on which numbers you use.

That’s a significant change of behaviour, one of the most significant ever in our country. If you are old enough to remember when everyone smoked, you know the difference. It is common now to be at parties where everyone

in the room used to smoke and none of them do now.

A lot of that has to do with peer, rather than governmental, pressure. Suddenly, it was not socially acceptable to light up. Sud-denly, people became more fitness conscious. Suddenly, your children were at you about smoking. Suddenly, people weren’t smoking on television. Suddenly, there were no ashtrays in people’s houses.

Things like that would have a big effect on us. But governmental action, both through regulation and education, has made a difference too.

The kids who nagged at you to quit probably picked that up in school. Good for the schools and good for governments at all levels that kept pumping the health statistics out at us.

Of greater significance, though, were the changes made in where smoking was allow-able. It got to be really inconvenient to smoke, which was an incentive to quit. It also got to be really expensive, thanks to higher and higher taxes. A pack of cigarettes costs something like $8 now. That’s a deterrent, particularly to young people. But the inconvenience might be even more important. In the days when ciga-rettes were cheaper, they were also much more visible. You would see people smoking them in grocery stores, on airplanes, in bars, in shop-ping centres, in theatres, in restaurants, at work.

Then the rules began changing. Cigarettes disappeared from the workplace, the stores, airplanes and trains. Then, with considerably more controversy, smoking was banned in bars and restaurants. This may have hurt bar and restaurant owners, but it made a big difference both to non-smokers and to smokers who were thinking of quitting (which, I can say as a reformed smoker, is all of them).

The jury may be out on the economic impact of banning smoking in restaurants and bars. But it can be argued that those who want to smoke can step onto the sidewalk. Meanwhile, bars and restaurants have gained new customers who had previously stayed away because they didn’t like to be in a smoky environment.

In short, people who were inclined to quit anyway found they had a greater incentive to do so because smoking had become not just an unhealthy and expensive pastime, but a pain in the neck.

Here, there was more help at the governmen-tal level in the provision of anti-smoking pro-grams at clinics and hospitals. Last year, more than 4,300 people took part in stop-smoking programs offered by Ottawa Public Health.

There is still muttering about social engi-neering, particularly as smoking bans spread out of doors. But you can’t argue with the fact that we’re better off for it.

It can be overwhelming to parent in the digital age. There’s so much advice out there about what to feed

kids, how to discipline them and what sorts of extracurricular activities will make them well-rounded, perhaps even perfect, children.

Frankly, much of it’s tosh. And as most of us try, in-

consistently, to follow the latest advice trends – free-from diets, punish-reward systems of dis-cipline, prescription medication – we are simultaneously seeing a rise in overweight and obesity, constipation, attention deficit disorder, anxiety and behavioural problems in children.

Our heads clouded with conflicting information on the Internet, maybe the solution is simpler than we realize: How well are our children sleeping?

You may think that’s ridicu-lous, but sleep is the new vitamin and most of us aren’t getting enough, including children and adolescents. The more I talk to parents, the more I realize most kids seem to have obvious problems in the sleep area. Some have toddlers that refuse to nap, there are school-aged children awake at all hours of the night, others have night terrors or issues

with bedwetting, then there’s the fatigued teens falling asleep in the classroom.

And let’s not forget the not-so-obvious consequences of bad sleep: toddlers having temper tantrums, otherwise well-disci-plined kids that are inattentive or belligerent at school or home, increased visits to hospital emer-gency rooms and teenagers who don’t get enough sleep are more likely to suffer from depression and engage in negative high-risk behaviour. If you think that’s all tosh, you’re wrong. There have been multiple research studies that have specifically examined the impact of insufficient sleep in children. One of my favourite overviews of this research is in the second chapter of the 2009 New York Times bestselling book, Nurture Shock, called “The lost hour.” The chapter’s title is based on the statistic that children today get an hour less

sleep on average per night than children from 30 years ago.

In one study cited by the book’s authors, journalists Po Bronson and Ashley Merryman, a group of 77 fourth-graders and sixth-graders were given instruction to either go to bed early or stay up late for three nights. They were then subject to neurobiological testing. The study’s author determined that just one hour of lost sleep was “equivalent to (the loss of) two years of cognitive maturation and development.” In other words, summarized Bronson, “a slightly sleepy sixth-grader will perform in class like a mere fourth-grader.”

Another study cited in the chapter makes a connection between sleep and regulation of insulin, concluding that kids who don’t sleep are prone to weight problems and diabetes.

Sleep is essential for kids to

learn, to create positive memo-ries, to stay in good physical health. Teenagers who get a good night’s sleep are less prone to depression. School-aged kids are less likely to have clumsy accidents in the playground. Pre-schoolers are likely to have better cognitive functioning and fewer tantrums. So the next time you’re reading about the latest quick-fix for your children’s health or behaviour, you may want to take a step back and check the clock. How well are the kids winding down at night? Do they have a solid hour of relaxation time with books and quiet activities (no screens). How long are they sleeping? Many school-aged children need 10 to 11 hours of sleep per night. (One of my children needs 12). How well are they sleeping? Do they have too much stimuli in the bedroom? Are they snoring? Do they have too many stuffed animals in their rooms? Too much light?

Improving the way your children sleep and the length of your children’s sleep can only have a positive outcome. Despite all the pop psychology available at the click of a button, your grandmother probably had it right: a good night’s sleep really is the best medicine.

Vanier Business Improvement Area hosts wedding show

Michelle [email protected]

News - Are you recently en-gaged? Thinking of popping the question? Hoping to have a chance to win your dream Vanier wed-ding?

Well, Quartier Vanier has just the event for you.

Bride Ideas - the Ultimate Wed-ding Showcase will take place at the Wabano Centre for Aborigi-nal Health on April 26. The bridal show will feature Quartier Vanier businesses exclusively.

“I think it’s amazing, the (busi-ness improvement area) has done a lot of cool things in the past,” said Rideau-Vanier Coun. Mathieu Fleury. “They have always been in-novative to make people discover Vanier, but I think what works well with this project, is that people can discover all the businesses in one spot in one hour.”

Fleury, who also sits on the BIA’s board of directors, said he will also be participating in the show.

The evening will feature a chance to taste different catering options, view floral arrangements and watch a fashion show – all from area businesses.

Kimberly Wilson, owner of Kim-berly Wilson Bridal and Fashion Outlet, will showcase her bridal fashions at the show.

“I have been asked in the past to participate in fashion shows, but never thought it was worth it,” Wilson said. “But this is all about showcasing our local businesses. This is about bringing people to the neighbourhood and we felt it was a great idea.”

Wilson’s dresses will be mod-elled by both professional models and brides-to-be who have recent-ly purchased dresses at the Beech-wood Avenue shop.

“I’ve never done this before, but I think it’s going to be a lot of fun,” said Glebe bride-to-be Marianne Wouters, who was at Wilson’s shop after a dress fitting for the fashion show.

Fellow model and bride-to-be Jolène Savoir said she too is ex-cited to step on the runway at the show.

Both women said they jumped at the chance to participate.

“I have been to a couple other bridal shops in this city and Kim’s shop is by far the best,” Wouters

said. “It’s a great, comfortable shop to look for your dress.”

The show will also feature musi-cians, including Aboriginal drum-ming and a Lebanese dancing group.

“We wanted to showcase the best of what Vanier merchants have to offer,” said stage manager Marie-Claude Valiquet.

The big draw is that anyone who attends the show has the chance to win an all-expenses-paid wed-ding. Anyone who attends who is getting married within the next 18 months will automatically be entered in the contest. The grand prize includes:

• Catering from Todrics Fine Dining and Catering

• Floral arrangements from Scentimental Flowers

• Wedding gown, veil and hair accessory from Kimberly Wilson Bridal and Fashion Outlet

• Wedding reception at the Wa-bano Centre.

There will also be door prizes, which include a chance to win fur-niture from Zuffa Homes, free tux-edo and wedding gown dry clean-ing from Monson Cleaners and a free teeth whitening package from Healthy Smiles dental clinic, among others.

Valiquet said there will also be swag bags for attendees.

Carleton students launch crowd-funding projectMichelle [email protected]

News - A group of Carleton students can’t wait to get their hands on live human tissue.

The health sciences stu-dents recently launched a $25,000 fundraising initia-tive on Carleton University’s crowd-funding website, Fu-tureFunder, in an effort to raise enough money to trans-form how they study anatomy at the school.

The money raised would help purchase preparations of both the spinal cord and blood vessels of the brain.

“Currently we are using plastic specimens where ev-erything is perfect,” said Re-becca Yaworski, one of the students involved. “It’s obvi-ous and easy. But real life is

not like that. Real, real-life tis-sue is simply the better way to study and will definitely help with our understanding.”

The project is supported and created by the university’s health sciences professors Iain McKinnell and Jeff Daw-son who reached out to their students to help launch the fundraiser.

Yaworski is a fourth-year biology student with a concen-tration in health sciences and jumped at the chance to work on the project and help get the word out about the Carleton Anatomy Project campaign.

The university does not have the facilities to store hu-man cadavers so the best alter-native, according to the group, is to purchase the plastinated models, which are resistant to wear and tear and offer the

best thing next to a cadaver. The Orleans native couldn’t

be more excited about the project or the concept of one day making it possible for Carleton students to be able to learn with real tissue samples. One of the unique aspects of the campaign is that three of the students working on it, in-cluding Yaworski, might grad-uate before the tissue samples reach the campus. But for the budding researcher, she said the idea of simply helping out another student’s studies, and potentially making future stu-dents as interested in medical science as she is would be re-ward enough.

“I want to see more stu-dents interested in sciences,” she said. “We have a great sci-ence program and I think more people need to know that, and

this will add to that.”The key to making this

project work is the university’s one-year-old online fundrais-ing initiative, FutureFunder.

“You basically get to direct your own learning,” Yaworski said.

Her fellow classmates agree.

“I am involved in this pro-gram because I have always thought that revolutionizing learning, in any way shape or form, is the best way to prog-ress our society and actively contribute to our future,” said Tom Kazmirchuk who is in his third year at Carleton working on his bachelor of science in biology.

To date, the online crowd-funding platform has raised more than $400,000 for stu-dent and professor-led proj-ects. The university reports that since the launch of the online funding opportunity, there has been a 50 per cent increase in first-time donors.

This project will be one of the first for FutureFunder to have a high dollar goal, but the students are not worried. Yaworski added that given the amount of time they have set to raise the funds, over 150 days, she believes the students will be able to get the job done.

“I think the idea of health services touches everybody,” she said. “Everybody has a doctor or has someone who has been sick. Helping to fund this project will ensure the next generation has the tools to learn and desire to become doctors and nurses. You can think of it as, by donating money you are funding the next group of surgeons and scientists.”

Since the project started mid-March, the team has raised $1,100.

Rebecca Yaworski is one of 10 students who are fundrais-ing to bring live human tissues specimens to transform the learning experience for anatomy students at Carleton University. The group launched a crowd-funding initia-tive on the university’s FutureFunder website to raise the $25,000 needed.

chopped rhubarb• 50 ml (1/4 cup) granulated

sugar• 150 ml (2/3 cup) icing

sugar• 50 ml (1/4 cup) cream

cheese, softened• 10 ml (2 tsp) milk (approx)

Cakes

• 3 Earl Grey tea bags• 75 ml (1/3 cup) boiling

water• 50 ml (1/4 cup) milk• 125 ml (1/2 cup) butter,

softened• 250 ml (1 cup) granulated

sugar• 2 eggs• 5 ml (1 tsp) vanilla• 375 ml (1-1/2 cups) all-

purpose flour

• 5 ml (1 tsp) baking powder• 1 ml (1/4 tsp) salt

PreParatIon

Rhubarb filling: In a medium saucepan, bring the rhubarb and granulated sugar to a boil. Reduce heat and sim-mer for 20 minutes or until it has thickened and the rhubarb breaks down, stirring occasion-ally. Let it cool. (Make ahead: store in an airtight container for up to one day or freeze for up to two weeks.)

Cakes: Grease and flour a 12-cup, non-stick muffin pan and set it aside.

Open the tea bags and pour the leaves into small bowl. Pour boiling water over the leaves and let stand for five minutes. Strain the leaves, reserving half. Add the milk to the tea and set aside.

In a large bowl, beat the but-ter and sugar until it’s light and fluffy, then beat in the eggs, one at a time, beating well after each. Beat in the vanilla and the reserved tea leaves.

In a separate small bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder and salt. Stir this into the butter mixture alternately with the tea mix-

ture, making three additions of dry ingredients and two of wet. Spoon the mixture into prepared muffin cups.

Bake in a 180 C (350 F) oven for about 20 minutes or until cake tester inserted in cen-tre comes out clean. Let cool in a pan on a rack for 10 minutes. Run knife around edges and remove the cakes from the pan. Place the cakes upside down on rack and let cool. (Make ahead: store cakes in an airtight container for up to one day or freeze for up to two weeks.)

Rhubarb glaze: In a food processor or blender, puree 50 ml (1/4 cup) of the cooled, cooked rhubarb until it’s smooth. Add the icing sugar and cream cheese and puree until smooth, adding milk, 5 ml (1 tsp) at a time, until it’s pourable.Trim the tops of the cakes to sit flat. Cut each cake in half. Spread the cut side of the bottom with 15 ml (1 tbsp) of the rhubarb filling. Place re-maining half, cut side down, on top. Place cakes upside down on plates. Pour glaze over top of each cake, letting excess drip down sides. Let stand for 30 minutes for glaze to set.

Community - Last year, the lives of more than 187,000 Canadians changed when they were diagnosed with cancer. It’s for this rea-son the Canadian Cancer So-ciety raises funds and aware-

ness by asking Canadians to support its Daffodil Month campaign every April.

The society asks the pub-lic to help support them by making a donation at any of the more than 635 LCBO

stores throughout Ontario. Coin and daffodil pin boxes will be displayed at LCBO checkout counters until April 26.

The funds raised through donations for daffodil pins

will enable the society to continue in its mission to eradicate cancer and en-hance the lives of people liv-ing with cancer. The society does this by fighting all can-cers on multiple fronts, in-cluding research, advocacy, prevention, information and support.

“LCBO’s provincewide network of stores and sup-

portive staff will help the Ca-nadian Cancer Society raise funds for the fight against cancer and increase pub-lic awareness of our impact in communities throughout Ontario,” says Susan Drod-ge, director, corporate and community partnerships, Canadian Cancer Society. “We appreciate the support we receive from LCBO, its

employees and especially its customers.”

The society is one of 28 provincial and numerous lo-cal charities that will benefit from LCBO’s provincewide donation box program in 2014. In 2012, the board’s outlets raised more than $6.6 million for charities through special programs and initiatives.

Arts - The Canadian War Museum is offering a view of the First World War right from the trenches, as in-terpreted by professional artists and soldiers who raised a paint brush or

pen in addition to a rifle.The 100th anniversary of the be-

ginning of the First World War is this June, and Canada’s national muse-ums will commemorate four grim years of combat – in Europe and on the home front – through 2019.

The first two exhibitions dealing

w i t h what was

then called the Great War opened on

April 10 at the war museum. The most personal works are those cre-ated by soldiers who decided to paint or draw what they saw. They are now part of one of the two concurrent ex-hibitions, titled Witness – Canadian Art of the First World War.

The sketches and drawings made in the trenches or in prisoner-of-war camps – some not much larger than postcards – stand in stark contrast to massive paintings commissioned by the Canadian War Memorials Fund. Some of the works by those in uni-

form were never intend-ed for display in a museum

but were created for family back home or comrades.

None of the art created by ordinary soldiers has ever been publicly dis-played before. In all, 54 artworks are presented in four thematic sections in Witness, including pieces by three artists who would later become part of the Group of Seven: A.Y. Jackson, Arthur Lismer and Frederick Varley.

transformation

“The war transformed Canada and you can witness that transformation as it happened,” said war art histo-rian Laura Brandon during an April 9 preview of the exhibition.

Brandon introduced the daugh-ter of one soldier-artist during the

launch. Marjorie Gould’s father, Ross Wiggs, served in the Canadian artillery with the McGill Battery and created colour drawings of what he saw during the war.

“It’s a real honour for him and for me,” Gould said of his part in the Witness exhibition: a cheerful im-age of a Canadian soldier, entitled Tommy.

Gould also carries with her two small books of drawings her father brought home and it seems a small miracle they survived time near the front lines and then the long trip back to Canada.

“There’s a whole series (of draw-ings of soldiers), from private to gen-eral,” Gould said of the neatly bound books.

CANAdIAN WAR MuSEuM

soldier-artist John Humphries’ untitled watercolour depicts a soldier on horseback and an ambulance, making their way down a wet road at sunset. in 1919, Humphries was stationed near the town of saint-Gérard, Belgium. the house in which he was billeted at the time became “a shrine to Canadians” after he painted pictures directly on the walls.

Museums will mark war’s centenaryContinued from page 20

The works of Wiggs and the other artists will be seen by thousands of Canadians as Witness goes on a cross-Canada tour after September.

The second exhibition at the war museum is entitled Transformations, and runs concurrently with Witness. It includes paintings from two very dif-ferent perspectives: the Allied and Ger-man sides during the First World War.

FROM BOTH SIDES

Canadian artist A.Y. Jackson was a professional painter prior to enlisting in the 60th Battalion in 1915. He fought and was injured, and was appointed as an official war artist in 1917.

German artist Otto Dix joined up in 1914, serving in the German army at the Battle of the Somme.

While Jackson avoided the depiction of battle, Dix didn’t shy away from in-corporating corpses in what has been described as Apocalyptic art.

In a few cases, the paths of Jackson and Dix crossed, and there are artworks of locations when they were held by the opposing sides during the war.

The Dix works on display include a number on loan from the national gal-lery in Berlin.

UPCOMING

Witness and Transformations will be on display at the Canadian War Mu-seum until Sept. 21. They require regu-lar admission to the museum.

Many upcoming exhibitions at the war museum and the National Gallery of Canada will share the years of the First World War with Canadians.

The gallery will host The Great War: The Persuasive Power of Photography from June 27 to Nov. 16.

The war museum will bring in tem-porary exhibits during the coming five years and will also add to its perma-nent collection with The Home Front, which opens this September. Complete schedules can be found at www.war-museum.ca.

Otto Dix, Zerfallender Kampfgraben (Trench in Ruins), 1924. In this print, German artist Otto Dix depicts a First World War trench in the after-math of violent shelling. In the dark, crumbling ground, bodies and skel-etons merge with the earth. In the distance, Dix uses light, a tradi-tional symbol of hope, to expose an endless field of shell holes.

CANADIAN WAr MuSeuM

Vivian Cummings, A Poppy Field, France, around 1918. The small-est piece in the exhibi-tion, this watercolour by Canadian soldier-artist Vivian Cummings is a rare depiction of a poppy field on the West-ern Front. It may have been inspired by John McCrae’s popular 1915 poem, In Flanders Fields, which made the poppy a well-known symbol of remembrance of the war dead.

How to manage diabetes at nightNews - What’s usually on your

mind before you fall asleep?Rather than reflecting on their

day or thinking about tomorrow’s tasks, Canadians with diabetes who take insulin, getting ready for a good night’s sleep can be a challenge because every night they must prepare their bodies to rest without food or insulin intake for a prolonged period of time.

Without the proper balance of insulin before bed, they can experience nocturnal hypogly-cemia.

Hypoglycemia occurs when blood sugar (or glucose) levels drop. It can cause confusion, loss

of consciousness and even result in death.

“Testing blood sugar through-out the day is necessary to main-tain a constant healthy blood sugar level, but during sleep hours, it is difficult to test. For people living with diabetes, nocturnal hypoglycemia can be daunting,” said Dr. Woo, en-docrinologist, Health Sciences Centre. “Sleep is an important indicator into how a person will perform throughout the day so whenever my patients and I are discussing treatment options, I always take into account the pa-tient’s lifestyle to insure they are using a treatment that will work

within their routine as well as allow them to get the sleep that they need.”

According to a recent survey of diabetes patients and their healthcare providers revealed that:

• More Canadian patients worry about experiencing a hy-poglycemic event at night than during the day (34 per cent).

* The most common reasons for mis-timing or reducing doses were low blood sugar levels and attempting to reduce the risk of having a hypoglycemic event.

• Patients are also losing sleep over the guilt they feel with missed dosing, as six in ten Ca-

nadian patients surveyed said they worry about missing the oc-casional insulin dose, and seven in ten feel guilty when they do.

• The good news is that it is never too late to take action to prevent or manage hypoglyce-mia. Here are three tips to pre-vent nocturnal hypoglycemia:

• Test blood sugar levels be-fore bed.

• If the test shows low blood sugar levels, some recommenda-tions for leveling out glucose lev-els include: bedtime snacks such as 15grams of carbohydrates or a glucose tablet, a glass of milk or a glass of orange juice.

Playing niceLouis Riel high school students join Right To Play president and CEO Johann Koss, athlete ambassadors Philippe Marquis and Rosie MacLennan, Ottawa-Orléans MP Royal Galipeau and Minister of International Development and La Francophonie Christian Paradis on April 4 at the Louis Riel dome. The day marked the first International Day of Sport for Develop-ment and Peace, celebrated internationally on April 6. The federal government announced $5.3 million in funding to support a Right to Play project in Western Africa.


news - more than 150 residents crammed osgoode’s community centre to decry that a longstanding water-quality policy is destroying the rural way of life.

the issue erupted after the president of the Carleton landowners’ association, 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 sev-erances.

if the water-quality guidelines aren’t met, the city can deny the severance of the lot. the

guidelines have been used since 2009. the city has only denied three lot severances due to wa-ter-quality guidelines since 2004 – 1,673 sever-ances have been approved in that time.

“Restricting severances is going to destroy the right to rural life,” West Carleton resident adele muldoon told the city’s agriculture and rural affairs committee on april 4.

“it is the seniors of the rural area that will be hurt most if the city continues to implement the procedures now in place,” she said, because it’s common practice to sever a lot to build a home for aging parents to live in the same vicinity as their children in the community they’ve lived for most of their lives.

the provincial procedure, called d55, iden-

tifies the maximum concentration of contami-nants in well water – both for health and aes-thetic impacts. those guidelines reflect the fed-eral and World health organization’s standards for water quality – but some rural residents say they’re out of date.

the problem, said people who came out to the april 4 meeting of the city’s agriculture and rural affairs committee, is that the guidelines are 18 years old and don’t reflect the invention of technologies that can fix aesthetic problems with water, such as a high-sulphur content.

“if the water that is coming out of the tap is clean, is safe, the city really has no business, ac-cording to the province, to regulate the water on private property,” dolan said.

as long as the city’s official Plan requires the guidelines to be met before granting the sev-erance of a lot, the city can refuse those sever-ances. the committee asked for an information report on the guidelines but declined to pursue any changes. instead, the committee will send a letter to the ministry of the environment, sur-rounding municipalities and other officials call-ing on the province to review and update the d55 procedure.

the rowdy crowd of 200 people – many from West Carleton – met the lack of action with jeers, including “Pass the buck,” “Shame,” and “liar.”

Community - There will be no Orléans Fes-tival for 2014, organizers have announced.

“We’re taking this opportunity to take a

step back,” said marketing director Shawna O’Brien. “Essentially, Shenkman is having their fifth anniversary as well.”

The Shenkman Arts Centre will be going ahead with their fifth anniversary party, which was scheduled to run in collaboration with the

Orléans Festival the May 31 weekend. The an-niversary party will run on May 31from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m., said Shenkman Arts Centre man-ager Caroline Obeid.

She said some of the programming that was usually part of the annual Orléans Festival, such as events provided by the Shop St. Jo-seph BIA will still run, but the event will be scaled back in comparison to the festival.

The event will also feature food trucks and family activities.

“We were working together, they had to postpone for their own reasons,” said Obeid.

“But we’re still going ahead with ours.” The official statement that the Orléans Fes-

tival organizers sent out said that “in support of the Shenkman and to take the opportunity to re-brand and re-focus, the Orléans Festival will be postponing this years’ Festival until 2015.”

O’Brien said festival organizers will focus on the coming years.

Some programming that was already been planned has been cancelled.

More details on the Shenkman anniversary party will be released later this month.

News - Johanne Lacombe, the current zone nine trustee for Orléans for the French Catholic board, is running for re-election.

She is currently the vice-president of operations for an Orléans daycare, the Centre Éducatif des Bécasseaux. She is a current trustee for the zone, and hasn’t run for any other political seat. While Lacombe doesn’t currently have any children in the school system, her four-year-old daughter will be starting at La Source ele-mentary school in September.

Q: Why are you running for trustee?

A: Really, the first reason why I’ve been doing this for so long is because I like to give back to my community, it’s something that’s very impor-tant to me. I want to make sure that francophones are very well served with a high level of education available. With my daughter starting school September, there is a personal

side of things for me as well.

Q: What has your involve-ment in the community been?

A: I was born in Orléans, so it’s very important to be able to give back to the community. I come from a family where giving back has always been a priority.

I am vice-president of the school board right now. I am also president of the Centre Éducatif des Bécasseaux in Orléans. For almost 20 years I have been board members for groups like Ottawa Com-munity Housing and the (local integrated health network) and many business communities as well. I’ve been very busy.

Q: What is the most impor-tant issue for schools in your zone?

A: Growth, growth, growth, at all levels. When it comes to the elementary schools, and when it comes to the secondary schools, we need to build more schools for our francophone board with the support of the ministry. We need to continue to offer the specialized pro-

grams in our high schools. Also to make sure parents

are aware of their choices in the education, and making sure parents are aware of the value of a francophone education. We need to inform the parents that bilingualism is an asset.

We are going to offer a bi-lingual certification soon in our schools.

SuBmItted

Johanne Lacombe is running again to keep her spot as school board trust-ee in zone nine, Orléans, for the French Catholic board.

News - The city’s two larg-est school boards are in the process of holding public con-sultations regarding the pro-posal to change daily start and end times in Ottawa schools.

The fi rst of a series of con-sultations took place at Brook-fi eld High School on April 3 where the Ottawa Student Transportation Authority pre-sented a detailed description of the board’s review process.

Along with extensive analysis of school-by-school bell times and reviews of the safety of walking zones to and from schools, the boards are holding the sessions as a way for parents to give their input.

“We want to make change

once and let parents adjust their routines to the new plans,” said OSTA general manager Vicky Kyriaco, add-ing the meetings will “give them the opportunity to re-spond with what their needs are.”

The purpose of the review is to improve overall effi cien-cy and effectiveness accord-ing to Kyriaco.

It is expected to reduce de-lays, add consistency of bus drivers, and improve commu-nication.

In order to do this, data is being collected on bus sched-ules and driver availability, distances and traffi c condi-tions on walking routes, and overall risk factors of students travelling to and from school.

“This is a system-wide re-

view that’s not going to hap-pen again in a long time,” said Kyriaco. “We are trying to become as effi cient as we can while balancing the needs of school communities.”

While the process is exten-sive, the review cannot cater to every individual student, which led the boards to hold the sessions and release a sur-vey in which parents can out-line their concerns.

In terms of walking zones, the boards say the onus is on the parents to determine what is an acceptable risk for their child as risk can only be re-duced but not eliminated.

The process of the review is a follows:

• Consultation sessions from April to June

• Review and evaluation from July to November

• OSTA reports to OCDSB and OCSB in December

• Communicate changes to schools on bell time and walk

zone changes in January and May 2015

• Changes take effect in September 2015

While the hazard zone por-tion of the review is universal, bell-time data is interpreted on a school-by school-ba-sis. In general, bell times for most affected schools will move an average of fi ve to 30 minutes earlier or later, while some schools may experience a change of up to an hour. The consultation at Brook-fi eld High School specifi cally spoke in regards to Bayview, Alta Vista, Arch Street and Vincent Massey schools. Parents were invited to voice their concerns to Kyriaco after the presentation.

“Some of the concerns as identifi ed on our survey are daycare issues…whether it’s availability or cost,” said Kyriaco.

Parents have also raised concerns of getting to work

on time, if a school considers a later start time.

“In a case like that there are lots of schools who are already at these new times,” Kyriaco said.

“So there’s a learning op-portunity there from other schools who are experienc-ing the current conditions that

we are proposing for other schools.”

Consultations for Ottawa west schools take place on April 26, at Fisher Park Pub-lic School.

More information can be found on the board’s website at ottawaschoolbus.ca under policies and procedures.

Strict application of policy ‘destroying’ rural way of life: residentsContinued from page 25

Osgoode Coun. Doug Thompson, who heads the rural affairs committee, said the water qual-ity in different areas of Ottawa varies and it makes sense for the city to have some control over it to ensure water safety for residents. He worried about legal repercussions if the city granted a severance and the untested water made someone ill.

But Dolan pushed Thompson and the com-mittee to consider what Prince Edward County did. That municipality ditched the guidelines and now requires consent agreements to be reg-istered on the property’s title stating the county is not responsible for water-quality defi ciencies.

The D55 issue fl ared up last year when the city refused a lot severance for a West Carleton landowner after he spent $17,000 to have a well drilled, tested and certifi ed by an engi-neer, Dolan said. The water has treatable high sulphur content – an aesthetic, not health, is-sue. The Ottawa-Carleton Landowners’ Asso-ciation got involved, but the hope the commit-tee might take action was always slim, Dolan said.

She says the issue is all about control.Dolan said she believes the city is misap-

plying the guidelines in a way that wasn’t intended by the Ministry of the Environment. She said she’s confi rmed twice with the minis-try that the water-quality guidelines were nev-

er intended to apply to single-lot severances – ministry representatives said the guidelines were meant to be applied to communal wells that serve six or more lots.

Murray Chown, a prominent local develop-ment lawyer, agreed the city is too strict in its application of the D55 guidelines.

“The city doesn’t apply that fl exibility. The city is much more rigorous in their application of those guidelines,” he said.

Thompson said the city has to work within the parameters of the province and urged con-cerned residents to lobby their MPP to support updating the guidelines.

Everyone agreed the D55 guidelines, which were drafted in 1995, are out of date and should

be reviewed by the province. Some of the residents in attendance pointed

out the Osgoode Community Centre, where the meeting was held, doesn’t follow the same strict water-quality rules: the washrooms feature signs warning of high-sulphur content in the water.

“Yes, there is a bit of an irony,” Thompson said.

Daphne Snell, a Kanata resident whose mother lives in the rural area and might one day choose to sever her property, said the City of Ot-tawa itself wouldn’t be able to offer clean drink-ing water to any of its residents if it wasn’t for technologies similar to ones that can be used to fi x aesthetic water-quality issues being used to deny lot severances.

Rain barrels are a ‘dog-gone’ good ideaCommunity - Residents

who want to save money, care for their gardens and protect the environment know that rain barrels help meet all three goals.

Canadian Guide Dogs for the Blind is now accept-ing pre-sale orders as part of

their truckload Rain Barrel Sale. This fundraising event is scheduled for May 3 at the National Training Cen-tre, 4120 Rideau Valley Dr. North, in Manotick. Rain bar-rels are $60 each and orders must be placed in advance of the sale.

You can order now, either online at www.RainBarrel.ca/guidedogs or by calling 613-692-7777.

Canadian Guide Dogs for the Blind provides guide dogs and training on how to use the dog’s services to clients who have mobility issues.

Proceeds from this rain bar-rel sale will go towards the training of guide dogs and as-sistance dogs to help those in need.

Rain barrels capture and store chlorine-free and fluo-ride-free rain water from a home’s downspouts, making it

ideal for flowers, vegetables, lawns, shrubs and trees. Col-lected water can also be used to wash cars, clean floors, and even do laundry.

These many uses can pro-vide cost savings to every resident, especially those who pay to have water trucked in, use a well or have a wa-ter meter installed. They can also provide water conserva-tion opportunities, particu-

larly during the dry summer months.

When ordering in advance of the sale, purchasers select the colour and model of their rain barrel, and add any acces-sories, such as downspout di-verters and rain barrel stands.

Each barrel is equipped with all the parts needed to put it together, so it can be collecting water in no time at all.



As CHEO gets ready to celebrate its 40th anniversary this year, it is natural to re� ect back to the early days of the hospital. It was a dream that was built on sheer will and determination by a community that was committed to providing the best health care for its children and youth. During the late 1960’s and early 70’s, physicians, elected o� cials, parents and the community at large joined forces to establish a special and distinct hospital to serve the children and youth of eastern Ontario and western Quebec. � is group raised $4 million from the community which was a formidable sum for the times.

In 1980, when the Children’s Hospital of Eastern Ontario (CHEO) was only just 11 years old, Weldon Cochrane, an Ottawa chartered accountant and partner with the accounting � rm of Coopers and Lybrand (now PriceWaterhouseCoopers) was also the Treasurer on the CHEO Foundation Board. Mr. Cochrane had an appreciation for the importance of leaving a legacy and understood how to make an impact. With that in mind, he made a gi� in his Will to CHEO leaving the residual of his estate with instructions for it to be endowed; meaning that the capital would be preserved in perpetuity and the annual interest would be used to fund the important work at CHEO. He was predeceased by his wife, Adrienne Cochrane and his only child, Delma Grace Cochrane.

When Mr. Cochrane died in 1985 the CHEO Foundation received $540,000 from his estate. � e Foundation established the Weldon Cochrane Endowment Fund with his gi� as directed in his Will. Much has happened and changed at CHEO in the nearly 30 years since Mr. Cochrane’s death, and in that time his legacy gi� has generated $4.6 million in interest which has bene� ted generations of patients and families at CHEO. In 25 years from now based on a conservative interest rate of 6% � e Cochrane Endowment Fund will be valued at $19,742,605; in 50 years it will be $84,732,710 and in 100 years it will have reached $1,560,789,584.

With these funds CHEO will be able to continue to purchase state of the art equipment, fund lifesaving research while continuing to provide the best in pediatric care for the children and youth of our community. His legacy lives on at CHEO every day through the children and families that bene� t from his generous and forward thinking.

As CHEO marks this major milestone, we look back and honor those in our community who made our local children’s hospital a reality and donors like Mr. Cochrane who made children a priority in their lives. Donors like him have helped to ensure that CHEO will be here forever. Why not honour what is most important to you during your lifetime by considering a gi� in Will to CHEO. Our children, youth and families deserve to always have excellent health care, to bene� t from lifesaving research and be provided with the support programs to live happy and healthy lives now and forever.

WHAT IS FOREVER CHEO?Forever CHEO is a way to ensure that CHEO will always be here to provide excellent care, life-saving research and invaluable support to children and their families every day by making a gi� from your estate.

When you leave a gi� in your Will to CHEO you have the option of designating it to address immediate needs within the Hospital, the Research Institute or the Forever CHEO Endowment Fund. � is fund will preserve the full amount of your gi� and disperse the interest to CHEO annually. Since the fund will live on in perpetuity, so will your gi� to future generations of children at CHEO. � is is a way to leave a permanent and meaningful mark on your community.

Break bad habits for a better lifestyle

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

they are the little things we do daily that add up and ultimately impact our overall health and well being.

to reveal bad habits that are common today, and how to turn them around to make positive changes in our lives, dr. Janet tamo, a consult-ing dentist for crest and oral-B, plus fitness ex-pert, Kathleen trotter, met recently to share their thoughts.

“inactivity throughout the day is one of the hab-its i see most often,” said trotter.

“Many people drive to work, search for the clos-est parking spot to the en-trance door or sit in front of the tV for hours after sitting behind a desk all day. t

here are so many quick and easy ways to integrate activity into your day without sacrificing valu-able time with family and

friends.”trotter recommends

integrating exercise into your routine with these examples:

• Bike to work instead of driving.

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

• Opt to take the stairs instead of the elevator. if it’s too much, get off the elevator early and walk at least one flight.

• Do some resistance exercises with an exer-cise band or exercise ball while watching tV.

• Schedule and com-mit to weekly walking dates with your family or a friend.

the effects of bad hab-its can accumulate and have a negative impact on your overall health over time.

By choosing to make healthier choices every day, you can feel better about your health – and have something extra to smile about.

River authority celebrates $1.3 million in conservation work

Jennifer [email protected]

News - One of the key highlights in the Rideau Val-ley Conservation Authority’s 2013 annual report was $1.3 million in conservation proj-ects to improve water quality.

RVCA chair Ken Graham called 2013 an impressive year for the authority, bringing sig-nifi cant, on-the-ground efforts throughout the 4,000-square-kilometre watershed.

“The Conservation Author-ity continues to bring qual-ity, cost-effective programs and services to its watershed municipalities and residents,” Graham said. “It’s a pleasure to see such valuable, relevant work being done throughout the Rideau watershed.”

The authority invested $1.3 million in conservation work done on private land to

improve water quality. There were also several other proj-ects that included funds and the work of volunteers made the report’s highlights, includ-ing:

• 238,450 trees planted (4.6 million planted since 1984)

• 60,000 visitors to conser-vation lands

• 5,000 students enjoyed Baxter Conservation Area’s Outdoor Education Program-ming

• 2,760 hectares of conser-vation land protected in the Rideau watershed

• 1,167 hours from 329 vol-unteers invested in Ottawa’s City Stream Watch program to research and cleanup city streams

• 431 septic reinspections completed in participating municipalities

• 360 hours donated by more than 25 volunteers to

help monitor and sample Wa-tershed Watch lakes

• 45 stream sites sampled to test water quality

• 42 kilometres of trails maintained for public use

• 39 lakes monitored for nutrients, E. coli and other pa-rameters

• 36 shorelines naturalized through the Shoreline Natural-ization Program

• Eight invasive species re-movals on tributary streams

• Five stream cleanups host-ed covering 3.5 kilometres.

Graham said the conserva-tion authority fi nds creative ways to get the job done.

“For every $1 from our member municipalities, RVCA is able to convert that into 42 through grants, fundraising and other unique partnerships. Today’s investment in our wa-tershed health will ensure a sustainable future – one where healthy human communities are part of our vibrant natural communities.”

IN THE MATTEROF THE

ONTARIO HERITAGE ACT

Notice of Intention to DesignateThe City of Ottawa on March 26, 2014 established its intention to designate 478 Albert Street under Part IV of the Ontario Heritage Act for its cultural heritage value.

Description of Property The building at 478 Albert Street is a three storey residence with a high basement that is located on the south side of Albert Street, to the west of the intersection of Bronson Avenue and Albert Street.

Statement of Cultural Heritage Value or Interest The house at 478 Albert Street is significant for its design value as an excellent example of the Second Empire style, historical value for its association with Thomas Seaton Scott and contextual value as part of a cluster of historic nineteenth century buildings on Albert Street.

The building at 478 Albert Street was constructed circa 1874, in the Second Empire style, which was popular in Canada between 1860 and 1900. The architectural features of the building which are characteristic of the ornate Second Empire style include its mansard roof, ornate entrance, prominent second storey elliptical porch, distinct triangular bay windows and intricate dichromatic brick work.

The building at 478 Albert Street was designed for and likely by, Thomas Seaton Scott, the first Chief Architect of the Department of Public Works. Scott was a well known Canadian architect whose work in Ottawa included the 1874 design for the west block of Parliament and the Drill Hall at Cartier Square. Later residents of the building included noted Canadian author William Dawson LeSueur, the Victorian Order of Nurses and the Sisters of Service. The building is associated with the former Ashburnham Hill neighbourhood in the west end of Uppertown. Ashburnham Hill was an early residential neighbourhood which was settled by members of Ottawa’s English-speaking elite from the mid- to late-nineteenth century.

This building is one of four remaining nineteenth century buildings located on the south side of Albert Street that has preserved its original low–scale residential character. The cluster of historic buildings on Albert Street stands out amongst the surrounding high-rise apartments and offices. The house at 478 Albert Street is significant for its contribution to the historic residential character.

OBJECTIONSAny person wishing to object to this designation may do so by letter, outlining the reasons for the objection and any other relevant information. This letter must be received by the Clerk of the City of Ottawa either by registered mail or personally delivered within 30 days of the publication of this notice. When a notice of objection has been received, the Council of the City of Ottawa will refer the matter to the Conservation Review Board for a hearing and a report.

News - Rideau Carleton Raceway and horse owners are breathing a sigh of relief after the province con-fi rmed a $26.5-million lifeline to keep racing alive.

The new program announced funding on March 31 to replace the Slots at Racetracks program, which the province axed two years ago.

While the $26.5 million over fi ve years won’t match the old funding, it’s enough to keep racing going, said Alex Lawryk, spokesman for the raceway.

“It’s a positive step, but it’s not what we had,” Lawryk said.

Before the old funding program was cancelled, Rideau Carleton hosted 154 races a year.

With the new $5.25 million in an-nual funding for fi ve years, the race-way is looking to offer 90 races this season.

The raceway has only been able to continue hosting racing for the past two years because it had money from the previous slots program leftover after the funding was can-celled, Lawryk said. That money has now run out, so without the new funding, Rideau Carleton would have only offered “a few dozen” racing opportunities each year. That’s simply because the owners

love and are committed to racing, which has been part of the raceway for 50 years, Lawryk said.

“It would just be a local, region-al-size track,” he said. “That would be the owner’s wish ... I’m sure they

wouldn`t want to shut it down. If there was no gaming and no rev-enue, it would be very costly.”

The two-year gap in funding and the uncertainty of the raceway’s fu-ture until now have left deep wounds

in the local horse-racing industry, Lawryk said.

“A lot of people, after two years, have left the business,” he said. “There are mixed feelings.

People are quite interested in continuing, quite excited about the possibility of continuing the indus-try in Ottawa, but it’s a lot less than it was.

“We basically have to re-ignite the interest and rebuilding,” he said.

CASINO EXPANSION RACE-TRACK’S FUTURE

Lawryk said the raceway hasn’t been told about a long-term strategy for funding horse racing after the fi ve-year funding runs out, but at least in Rideau Carleton’s case, the facility is hoping to have a casino open by then.

Last summer, city council voted to limit any expansion of gambling in Ottawa to the raceway site with the 21 gaming tables that had al-ready been approved as part of a pilot project, and the existing 1,250 slot machines.

Rideau Carleton is expecting “some effort” to be made to inte-grate horse racing into the site when it begins operating as a casino, but the province has yet to announce the details of that integration plan.

Additional activity at the raceway

– along with more funding – is what Rideau Carleton is hoping for, Law-ryk said.

The wild card will be which polit-ical party is overseeing the program after the next provincial election, if a vote is called soon, he said.

Lawryk said he is expecting an announcement with more informa-tion in the next month.

The company that owns Rideau Carleton did express interest in be-ing selected by the Ontario Lottery and Gaming Corporation to operate the future casino at their site, but the decision on short listing qualifi ed bidders has been delayed, Lawryk said.

If Rideau Carleton Entertainment wins the contract, Lawryk said a casino expansion would be a long-term certainty.

“(The OLG) originally wanted the site to grow to 2,000 slot machines and three times the number of tables – something like 60 gaming tables (as part of the gambling moderniza-tion plan),” Lawryk said.

“If the utilization of the 1,250 slot machines grows signifi cantly, there is no reason why (the OLG) couldn’t re-approach council and ask for a zoning change to ask for a couple hundred more slots.

“In that 20 years, I’m sure there will be a need to review the num-bers,” Lawryk said.
