A gunman was inside the Centre Block, within metres of then-prime minister Stephen Harper and hundreds of MPs.

“There was never any question that we (RCMP officers) would back up the officers in-side (the building),” Waye recalled in an inter-view with Metroland Media.

Waye joined other RCMP officers in the halls of Parliament who moved along a hallway in a tactical formation designed to approach an armed suspect while protecting members of the team.

It’s this group – and Waye with gun drawn – that can be seen on a shaky cellphone video shot by a Globe and Mail reporter and replayed on newscasts all over the world.

In the video, Waye turns to the camera and orders the reporter to take cover, all the while moving forward and protecting the back of the formation.

At the time, none of the police officers could be sure if they were dealing with one gunman or multiple threats.

FINAL SHOTS

Moments later, the video captures the sound of the gunman’s final shots, their echoes mixing with the shots that killed him, fired by Kevin Vickers, then Parliament’s sergeant-at-arms.

“I don’t think the response (by security ser-vice members) could have rolled out any better than it did,” Waye said. “It was under control in three minutes.”

On Feb. 8, Gov. Gen. David Johnston pinned a Medal of Bravery onto Waye’s red serge uni-form during a ceremony at Rideau Hall that saw 16 men and women recognized for their ac-tions on the day of the shooting.

Waye said the events of Oct. 22, 2014, were unexpected, but he credited the RCMP’s train-ing for the response.

“You never know what’s going to happen,” he said, but there was no hesitation; officers moved towards the sound of the gunfire. “It was a very controlled first response.”

Before the gunfire inside the Centre Block, shots had already been fired at the National War Memorial, and Canadian Forces sentry Cpl. Nathan Cirillo lay dying, but Waye said the RCMP officers and Hill security staff were unaware of that.

“We didn’t know about the shooting at the War Memorial,” Waye said.

Even after the gunman was killed, informa-tion was at a premium, and Waye said it was more than an hour before he could let his wife know that he was OK.

“On that day (of the shooting) you don’t re-alize the impact it can have on your family,” he said.

The video that clearly showed Waye had al-ready been aired, and friends had called Waye’s home to tell his wife that her husband was right there as shots were fired.

“What’s nice about today,” he said of the medal ceremony, “is that my wife and my son are here with me.”

Waye received the Medal of Bravery, which recognizes acts of bravery in hazardous circum-stances.

The Governor General said Canadians owe an “enormous debt” to the men and women who stopped the attack.

“It was said Ottawa came to a standstill on Oct. 22,” Johnston said to the Medal of Bravery and Star of Courage recipients in remarks at the start of the ceremony.

“You didn’t come to a standstill. You ran to-wards the danger.

“It reminds us that while people are capable of doing the worst to each other, there are also people capable of doing their best.”

INSIDE THE CENTRE BLOCK

When the gunman entered the Centre Block, Parliamentary security Const. Samearn Son grappled with the gunman’s rifle and was shot in the leg by the gunman.

Son’s security colleague Const. Louis Lé-tourneau arrived near the rotunda at the en-trance moments later. He spoke about that day following the medal ceremony.

“I arrived about two seconds after Const. Son was shot and I never took my eyes off him (the gunman),” Létourneau said.

“I was there from the first shot to the end.”Two House of Commons protection services

officers – Cpl. Maxim Malo and Const. Charles Thom – took cover and exchanged several rounds with the gunman after he entered the building.

Létourneau tracked the gunman down the Hall of Honour toward the Library of Parlia-ment and fired at him several times.

Eleven RCMP officers – including Waye – en-tered the Centre Block. Their approach towards the gunman helped corner him where he was eventually killed.

Létourneau received the Star of Courage for an act of “conspicuous courage in circumstanc-es of great peril.”

He said the recognition is difficult for many officers to accept.

“We feel a bit like imposters maybe,” he said. “We deserve it, but we just did our job.”

He added that the officers involved have a

“special bonding” because of the events, but said he sometimes experiences flashbacks to the day of the shooting.

“When I first went back to the Hall of Hon-our, it was a strange feeling,” Létour-neau said.

“Now it’s just like a regular day at the office.”

RECIPIENTS

In addition to Waye, Malo and Thom, six RCMP officers received the Medal of Bravery:

Const. Michelle Bergeron,Const. Gary Bubelis,Const. Somoza Célestin,Const. Sylvie Marcoux, Const. Michel Palmer,Const. Patrick Ruest. In addition to Létourneau, Son and

Vickers, there were four RCMP offi-cers who received the Star of Courage:

Const. Curtis Barrett,Cpl. Dany Daigle,Const. Martin Fraser,Sgt. Richard Rozon.

Bruce Brayman said he didn’t think he would be leading the community as-sociation whose meeting he went to “check out” eight years ago, but he’s happy he did.

Brayman, who is presi-dent of the Greely Commu-nity Association, was given the Mayor’s City Builder award on Feb. 10.

Mayor Jim Watson said Brayman is working to make Greely a great place to live for families, retir-ees and “everything in be-tween.”

The financier and father is also one of the founders of the Greely Business As-sociation and leads the lo-cal seniors walking club.

Brayman is also working with local historians on a gateway project that would seek to incorporate a show-case of the village’s history into an entry feature.

Aside from the work Brayman does on the day-to-day activities in Greely, he’s also an organizer of the community association’s annual Canada Day cele-brations – which includes a whole day of activities and features performances of the winners of the Greely

Idol competition.Brayman said he was

honoured to be given the award and thanked his wife and family for giving him the freedom to dedicate his time to the community.

The Mayor’s City Build-er Award was created to recognize an individual, group or organization that has, through outstanding volunteerism or exemplary action, demonstrated com-mitment to making Ottawa a better place. This may in-clude lifelong service, out-standing acts of kindness, inspiring charitable work, community building or oth-er exemplary achievements.

For the past four years, the Eastern Ontario Prostate Cancer Awareness Com-mittee has hosted Dare to Flashe a ‘Stache (DTFAS), raising awareness and funds. In fact, they’ve raised more than $161,000 to support cancer programs at both the Winchester District Memo-rial Hospital (WDMH) and The Ottawa Hospital.

On February 9, the com-mitted team presented a cheque for $9,548.55 to the WDMH Foundation, rep-resenting half of the funds raised at the November 2015 event.

“Our number one focus is to create awareness. Prostate cancer is something that men don’t talk about,” noted Tom Clapp, committee co-chair.

“When we were going through it, we found that it was nice to talk to someone who had been there. We can be that support.”

At the presentation, Clapp thanked the many support-ers and sponsors who have been part of DTFAS, in-cluding local � remen, the Li-ons Clubs and the WDMH Foundation.

He also noted that it was time for a change. “Five years ago, we sat in the old nurses’ residence next door and did some brainstorming and came up with Dare to Flash a Stache. Now it’s time for something new.”

The committee will be meeting in the next few weeks to look for new ideas centered around Prostate Awareness Month each Sep-tember.

At WDMH, funds raised help to support the role of the Cancer Care Navigator at WDMH. She provides sup-port and education to cancer patients and their families – helping them navigate their care and connect with local community resources.

The service is available to all cancer patients in the lo-cal area and no referrals are required.

WDMH Foundation Board Member Cindy Peters thanked the group for their commitment to local health care. “Thank you on behalf of the hospital – and espe-cially on behalf of the many cancer patients that have bene� ted from the cancer care navigator program. It is possible because of each of you”

One would hope that those who run educa-tional institutions think before they act.

That hope has dimmed with the decision of two Ontario colleges two years ago, including Ottawa-based Algonquin College, to expand their global footprint, pump up their prestige as institutions and try to make a few bucks as well, with international campuses in Saudi Arabia.

On the surface, there is nothing wrong with Algonquin College and Niagara College open-ing international campuses. But there is some-thing wrong with opening men-only campuses in Saudi Arabia where Sharia law forbids the education of women and men in the same educational programs and classes.

The men-only campuses may be the way they do things in Saudi Arabia, but that is not the way we do things in Canada. And in this instance, the criticism that Algonquin has had to deal with since the school decided that it was fine with excluding half the human race from its Saudi operations is richly deserved.

The issue has been raised before, and most recently even Ontario’s premier has waded into the debate.

“As soon as I found out there was a pos-sibility that women weren’t being offered programs, I asked questions about it, and it’s unacceptable to me,” Premier Kathleen Wynne is quoted as saying in a recent Canadian Press story.

There are those who will say – and Algon-quin has said this in past statements – that the way you foster change is to engage the society that partakes in such discrimination from within. It’s the old Margaret Thatcher stance on apartheid in South Africa.

But Thatcher was dead wrong on South Africa, and former Canadian prime minister Brian Mulroney was right. Mulroney was a staunch advocate of sanctions against South Africa because he knew that you do not foster change by just going along to get along when it comes to human rights issues.

Algonquin College’s decision to go along to get along in Saudi Arabia by participating in that fiefdom’s discrimination against women was a bad decision.

There is no honour and no prestige to be had by doing the wrong thing.

Algonquin’s international mistake

It’s always good to have some-thing to talk about with strangers. A sense of community comes out of that, the ability to talk with ease with people we barely know, or don’t know at all. We’re all in this together, is the feeling we all get out of it, and that’s good.

Of course, it was the big hockey trade last week that brought all this about.

The Senators get Phaneuf? Holy cow! Cowan and Michalek go to Toronto? Amazing. You might have seen the news crawling across the bottom of a TV that happened to be on. All previous conversation would cease and this new topic would take over.

You could even have the conver-sation in an elevator. Did you hear about the trade? You could ask that of a complete stranger and

then have a conversation. This is a rarity in this part of

the country. In Central Canada when somebody starts up an eleva-tor conversation with a stranger, the stranger is thinking “What does he want?”

The stranger thinks you’re weird, and possibly dangerous. This isn’t the case so much in At-lantic Canada or the West, where people are more outgoing and less suspicious.

But even here, a big hockey trade is an easy and safe conversa-

tion opener. It’s one of the things we can discuss, even argue about, without anybody getting upset. “How about that Phaneuf trade!” you can exclaim, without offend-ing anyone.

That wouldn’t work with most other topics, such as politics, even in Ottawa. Exclaiming “How about that Trudeau announcement on Syria” might get a mixed and not altogether pleasant reaction. Same goes with “How about that school board French immersion policy!”

Sport is safer. You can disagree on whether Phaneuf is getting too much money, whether the Sens should have been more patient with Cowan, whether they gave up a valuable prospect, whether Michalek will be missed. No one will get angry during this disagree-ment.

Yes, it’s true that angry words are sometimes expressed about sports, but those are mostly online,

in the Comments section. Every-body seems to be angry there.

But not on the elevator.Another nice thing about the

casual sports conversation is that you don’t have to be an expert to take part. You have just have to have a feeling about it.

True there are experts, and those who hear them, particularly on the TV talk shows, know how tiresome they can be. They go on and on about salaries and cap space and free agency and what-not. Whereas you can just say you like that Phaneuf has a hard shot and you wonder if Greening will get a shot with the Leafs.

You don’t have to justify why you thought the Super Bowl was interesting. You just have to say it. And the guy who thought it wasn’t just has to say it too. No harm done.

Whereas, if you want to say that Donald Trump is interesting, you had better be prepared for a

challenge. What do you mean by “interesting”? Don’t you think he’s horrible? How can you say he’s interesting? On most topics, conversations can degenerate. In the manuals of old-time manners people were taught never to talk about politics and religion at the dinner table. A good hockey trade, though, is another matter.

City council appointed Steve Kanellakos to replace outgoing city manager Kent Kirkpatrick at a special meeting on Feb. 8.

Kanellakos is well known at city hall, as he is a former City of Ottawa deputy city manager and has 30 years of experience overseeing mu-nicipal projects and services, according to a press release sent out by the city.

“We are delighted to have Mr. Kanellakos return to Ot-tawa city hall to continue his great work on behalf of Ot-tawa residents,” Mayor Jim Watson, chair of the hiring panel, wrote in the state-ment.

“He is a trusted leader and consummate public servant with impeccable credentials in the planning and delivery of a broad range of munici-pal services.”

Watson added the city is undergoing unprecedented

growth with the expansion of light rail, the opening of the new Innovation Centre and other city construction projects.

“Our council, residents, employees and stakehold-ers will be well served by the dynamic and prudent management style of Mr. Kanellakos as the city moves forward with its challenging, ambitious priorities,” Wat-

son said.The city’s finance and eco-

nomic development commit-tee acted as the hiring panel for the new city manager.

All members of council provided input on their ex-pectations for the ideal can-didate.

Kanellakos worked as a manager for the city from 2000 to 2015, but he got his start with the Gloucester po-lice department in 1985.

During his tenure as a dep-uty city manager in Ottawa, Kanellakos was responsible for the majority of munici-pal employees and front-line service departments.

Kanellakos is currently the city manager for the City of Vaughan. He is scheduled to take over his new post in Ottawa on May 2.

Kirkpatrick had indicated previously that he would not seek a contract extension beyond March 2016. Kirk-patrick has held the city’s top administrative job since 2004.

Galoshes brought back bad memories

Father was sitting on the bench at the back door.

The washbasin and soap dish had been placed on the floor under-neath, and beside Father’s feet was the shoebox. It was made of wood, and had the shape of a shoe sole tilted on one side.

This is where Father placed his foot when he wanted to put a shine to his Sunday boots. He removed from inside, the piece of rubber, and a baking powder tin that had holes punched in the bottom, which he would use to scrape the spot where the rubber would go, when it was cut into the right size for a patch to be glued on to the galoshes or gum rubbers he was working on.

I tried not to look at the galoshes on the floor beside him. These were the very same galoshes Father had tried to patch a couple weeks before Christmas. The

memory of that night was one I would be a long time erasing from my mind. I thought as the winter wore on, I might be able to forget that night, but I couldn’t.

I had seen the beautiful doll one day in the dime store, and I could talk of nothing else when I got home. I even wrote Santa a letter asking if he might consider putting the doll under our Christmas tree.

That night, as I raved on about the doll, and said how much I longed for it, it was then Father held up Mother’s worn galoshes and said, if Santa had any heart he would bring new galoshes for Mother.

And then, like a miracle the doll had appeared that Christmas morning under the tree. And there were no new galoshes for Mother.

And now, every time I watched Father working on our galoshes and rubber boots, hoping to get a bit more wear out of them by gluing on rubber patches, my mind reeled back to that fateful night when I begged for the doll. I thought, if I didn’t watch Father, maybe I could forget about the sacrifice that was made, and stop wondering how Santa knew about that beautiful doll, and how it ended up under our tree.

And as the winter wore on, Mother wore those old galoshes, patches on top of patches and there was never enough money to replace them.

So I got to praying. I prayed that it would be a short winter, that the patches would hold onto the galoshes, and I even prayed that I would stop fretting about how Santa brought me the doll and no new galoshes for Mother.

And that night, as I watched Father once again try to repair what looked to me beyond fixing, I wondered how much more wear Mother would get out of them, and how Renfrew County could possibly handle one more snow flake!

Old Herman said it was the worst winter he had ever seen.

Mother’s shoes fitted inside the

galoshes, and there was a strip of tattered fur around their tops covering the laces down to the toes. I thought they were probably as old as I was.

Certainly I had no memory of Mother ever buying them. And they were black; as black as night. As hard as I tried, I couldn’t stop watching Father working away at the galoshes.

And then he reached into his back pocket and took out a pair of brand new black laces. They were wrapped in a red paper sleeve. He took out the old laces and worked in the new ones, tying a knot at the top. He was in his stockinged feet, and he put the galoshes on. I had no idea what he was going to do in Mother’s galoshes, when it was just about time to go to bed.

And then, one after the other, he placed his foot on the wood sole on the shoe box, and rubbed black

shoe polish all over the galoshes, covering the patches and all. He took a brush out of the shoe box, one I had seen him use many times on his Sunday boots, and with fierce strokes he brushed and brushed until I thought he would wear the rubber right down to the canvas that lined the galoshes.

He held them up when he was finished, and they were as shiny as a fry pan, and looked like they had just come out of the store.

“Good as new,” he said. And I wondered after, whenever I cradled that beautiful doll, how long it would take for me to release the feeling of sadness I felt whenever I looked at Mother’s galoshes, patch on top of patch.

Learning how to look after LetiThe Farmer and I had

the opportunity to babysit our grand-daughter Leti for the

first time. It was the busiest five hours in our recent his-tory.

Anastasia and Andrew arrived an hour early to settle Leti in for her visit. Annie fed and changed her baby before she left, and left two bottles of mama’s milk behind. Theoretically that is more than enough for a four to five hour stay. Then she decided to leave us a can of formula “just in case Leti is doing her nervous eating.” I thought that was funny – a baby get-ting nervous and snacking to settle herself. But Mama was right.

Leti slept in her bassinette for the first hour. When she began to fuss I picked her up, checked her diaper and tried dancing and jiggling her around the room. Then I remembered that, like her

mother before her, Leti does not often appreciate being danced or jiggled. She likes to be held still. She’s not a candidate for one of those vibrating baby chairs and she doesn’t need to be rocked to sleep. That movement seems to make her nauseous.

Her mother was the same. The first time I went out to dinner and left Anastasia with a sitter, when she was about two months old, I forgot to tell her caregiver how to settle her. I was just so excited to be getting out of the house that I made sure she had enough milk and knew where the diapers were and I left.

Margaret was the kindly old grandma from next door – she had run a home daycare and looked after her own grandchildren for so many years that I felt quite confident she would be able to handle all the troubleshooting and problem-solving on her own.

These were the days before cell phones. But we had left the phone number of the restaurant where we were heading, so Margaret could find us in an emergency. I was just getting used to being out on the town without a baby strapped to me when the server approached our table,

phone in hand. Margaret actually sounded

quite calm, which was remarkable given that there was the obvious sound of a furious baby screaming in the background. It wasn’t a hun-gry or scared or pained cry. It was Annie’s angry cry.

“I’m so sorry to bother you. I have tried everything and I cannot get this child to stop yelling and go to sleep. I know she must be exhausted. I tried rocking her, walking her, putting her in the swing and dancing her around the room. Do you have any hints?”

“Yes, sorry. I should have told you. Just put her on her face in her crib and walk out of the room. Make sure the monitor is on, and close the door behind you.”

“Really? Wait. I’ll try it while you are still on the phone, if you don’t mind.”

I heard the sound of the screaming growing more dis-tant on the other end of the line. I pictured the two going into the nursery, Annie be-ing placed in the bed on her stomach, her toys tucked in around her…then I heard the door softly closing. The crying abruptly stopped.

“Well. That worked. I guess she just likes to be left alone! Enjoy the rest of your evening.” And she hung up the phone.

Leti opened her eyes and looked, startled, at my face.

The same colouring as her mother, and likely a similar voice…but not the mama.

I snapped a photo of her obviously confused expres-sion. Then the nerves must have started because she de-manded a bottle. And within half an hour of finishing that one, another. I changed her diaper after each feeding and when she asked for the third bottle I realized we had to start on the formula.

“Stop feeding that kid, will ya?” the Farmer com-mented. “You’re going to make her sick!”

I explained about the nervous eating and grandpa had to admit, it seemed to be the only thing that settled

her. About twenty mls into the formula, Leti passed out. The excitement mixed with the heaviness of the milk to put her to sleep. She was blissfully dreaming of her mother when the real one arrived to bundle her up and take her home.

Grandma’s first babysit-ting event went well, and we got to know each other a little better.

Lesson learned: always have plenty of snacks on hand.

As part of its strategy to fight climate change, the province plans to make it easier – and cheaper – for homeowners to realize ef-ficiencies with natural gas heating.

Through a partnership with major natural gas pro-viders Enbridge and Union Gas, the province will invest $100 million from its Ontar-io Green Investment Fund to allow the utilities to offer rebates on home energy au-dits and retrofits.

The retrofits and up-grades would allow home-owners to reduce their gas bills while lowering the over-all amount of greenhouse gas emissions – something the province pledged to do as recently as last year’s cli-mate change conference in Paris.

Ontario Energy Minister Bob Chiarelli made the an-nouncement on Feb. 4 at the Baseline Road Home De-pot, itself a partner in many provincial programs.

“This investment will de-liver investments on many fronts,” said Chiarelli.

“Homeowners across the province will directly ben-efit, as the program will help lower their monthly heating and cooling bills. Ontario will directly benefit, as us-ing energy wisely reduces the need to build new energy infrastructure.”

Home energy retrofit pro-grams “work well,” said Chi-arelli, adding that for each dollar spent on efficiencies, consumers receive up to $4 in savings, or $400 in annual savings, for an older home.

The province predicts the investment will allow 37,000 homeowners to conduct en-

ergy audits, after which they could benefit from measures such as the replacement of furnaces and water heaters, upgraded insulation or in-stallation of “smart” ther-mostats.

The $325-million Ontario Green Investment Fund is tied to the province’s cap-and-trade program.

Because the program is being offered through utili-ties with existing energy-savings programs, “this program can hit the ground running with little or no ramp time,” said Chiarelli.

Jim Sanders, a vice-presi-

dent with Enbridge Gas and Distribution, said his com-pany believes collaboration between government and business, and investment of proceeds into cleaner sys-tems, are key to cap-and-trade agreements.

“Conservation is the most effective way to reduce per-customer consumption of natural gas, which simulta-neously reduces emissions and customers’ bills,” said Sanders.

“Between 1995 and 2014 our energy efficiency pro-grams collectively helped Ontario residents and busi-

nesses avoid 18 megatons of carbon emissions.

This is equivalent to tak-ing 2.4 million cars off the road every year.” Also at the announcement were rep-resentatives of Nest Labs, maker of a product that can be installed to create a custom schedule for heating and cooling in a home.

The device – “the Nest Learning Thermostat” – is available for purchase at Home Depot.

Full details of the prov-ince’s collaborative program are expected to be revealed in the coming months.

Week In ReviewAlthough the weather did not cooperate very well this pastweekend for the Vernon Community Association (VCA) hock-ey day, it wasn’t enough to dampen spirits. The Army Cadetsfrom #2951 troop were on hand to provide camping demon-strations and using the appropriate gear. They continued witha game of volleyball in the snow and enjoyed hot chili with aroaring bonfire to warm up. Sunday, VCA hosted their annualbrunch and church service. There is always a good turnoutand great food. This could not be done without the dedica-tion of volunteers that prep, cook and serve the hungry crowdevery year. Thank you!

The final show of Cracking Up The Capital was held on Sat-urday night at TD place. A crowd of close to 2,000 were onhand. It was great to see many of my colleagues attendingand supporting them with proceeds to the “mental aware-ness” cause. Four Wards participated in this event leading upto Saturday’s finale with one from the Greely show and onefrom the Orleans show included in the lineup. Congratulationsto all that participated.

Pancakes were flipping and being served up by Greely Lionsand church volunteers at Our Lady of the Visitation Church onSunday after morning service. Their basket raffle was wonby the St.Denis Family. Lots of goodies in there! Holy Trin-ity Church in Metcalfe also served fluffy pancakes on ShroveTuesday. It was a nice change for supper. Many hands makethe work lighter. Thank you to all the volunteers.

MPP Lisa MacLeod hosted a drop in at the Barhaven Legionfor PC party members to vote for their delegates to representthem in the upcoming years. Several of my colleagues joinedher as well. It was a standing room only crowd eager to hearwhat each potential delegate had to say and why they thoughtthey would be a good choice.

Orchard View held an open house to showcase what theyhave to offer people looking for a great venue for their nextevent. General Manager Adam Milito stressed that they hostlarge engagements like conventions and weddings, but canalso accommodate even the smallest of business meetingswith ease. They have several different size rooms for yournext special event. It is so convenient to have this little gemnestled in our Ward. Why not consider them next time youare looking around for a meeting place?

This Tuesday was a busy one! We saw eight people drop inthroughout the afternoon, some of whom I met for the firsttime. It is always a pleasure to meet residents in person. I’malways available from 1:00 – 5:00 p.m. every Tuesday in myWard Office. No appointments taken, just drop by.

Osgoode Lions Club hosted the Greely Lions as part of the“travelling Lions” so to speak. They have enjoyed their trav-els around different Lions Clubs, learning lots and meetingmany new people. What a great way to see how the otherclubs work and what they are involved in.

Metcalfe’s “Meet and Greet” group had their quarterly meetingat the Metcalfe Golf Course to discuss ideas and plan for theMay 7th second annual “Meet and Greet” in the street event.Last year Marc Sauve spearheaded this day and organizedbusinesses in Metcalfe to be out on the street displaying whatproducts they had to offer that are local. He wanted to show-case local businesses and not only encourage people to shoplocal but make them aware of exactly what is offered here.Looking forward to attending it again this year with some newadditions. Stayed tuned to read more on the event as thedetails become available.

Ottawa Public Health providing vaccines,dental screenings for refugeesJennifer [email protected]

The city’s public health department has provided 500 vaccines to Syrian refu-gees since their arrival in January, according to chief medical officer Dr. Isra Levy.

In his report to the Ot-tawa health board on Feb. 8, he said Ottawa has wel-comed 700 refugees.

So far, Ottawa Public Health has held 10 outreach clinics for refugees, which included access to vaccines.

“We have provided 500 vaccines and 400 dental

screenings,” Levy said, adding the department is also working on infection control and prevention measures among the new population. “We are work-ing mostly at the temporary lodgings,” he said.

Public health is working in partnership with the city

and Refugee 613 to address needs as they arise, Levy said.

“Our staff are working to adapt to a constantly changing dynam-ic,” he said. Rideau-Vanier Coun. Mathieu Fleury asked if the num-ber of refugees in the capital is up that much because of the influx of Syrians.

“We have a number of refu-gees settle in this city every year and I wonder if there will be that much difference from the normal amount we see,” he asked.

Levy said it’s too early to tell.“We’re just in the first three

months,” he said.Gloucester-South Nepean

Coun. Michael Qaqish, who has been appointed the city’s liaison for the resettlement efforts, said it’s not necessarily the amount of refugees, but the concentration.

“We have approximately 700 that have arrived in just a couple of months,” he said.

SCHOOL SUSPENSIONS

Several local children will be getting vaccines this year.

Health board chair, Stittsville Coun. Shad Qadri, said public health’s ‘every child, every year’ strategy – designed to bring Otta-wa’s student immunization records up to date – has resulted in 3,800 school suspensions of one day or more, since the program was first implemented.

The program started in April 2015 – when staff found that of the city’s 150,000 school-aged chil-dren, records for approximately 63,000 were not up to date.

The report indicated that par-ents weren’t aware of their respon-sibility to report immunizations to public health. Qadri said the possibility of school suspensions – while not ideal – has garnered 96 per cent compliance in the schools that have been surveyed. The last batch of letters were to go out to parents on Feb. 9, he said, with sus-pensions to take effect in March if the records are not updated. “Staff have made tens of thousands of phone calls,” he said.

Other public health priorities this year include fall prevention for seniors, mental-health initia-tives and sexual health education for priority groups, Qadri said.

Pawsitive Winter Activitiesfor You and Your Dog

You want to be the best pet owner for your dog and you know that meansproviding plenty of exercise and stimulating activities each day. But let’s faceit – that’s not the easiest thing in the winter.

Here are some ideas to help keep your pet happy and healthy until thesunshine and green grass return.

Indoor gamesMany dogs can easily learn to play hide-and-seek with you.Games like this provide some indoor exercise, as well as mental stimulationand fun, for your pet and your family!

New toys Stock up on toys that are interactive and stimulating for yourpup. Tug toys, for example, will provide fun, exercise, and interaction.Stuffable toys that make your dog think and work to get to a treat arealso great, but make sure you’re not overcompensating fewer walks withfar more treats!Nose work Challenge Rover’s nose by hiding treats throughout thehouse for him to search for; create an obstacle course to be sniffed

through to find his dinner; or create interactive challenges for yourdog by hiding a treat under one of several covers, and praising himwhen he finds it.Outings Next time you’re heading out to your local pet store oranimal shelter, take your dog with you. He’ll be excited to get out ofthe house, see and sniff new people and animals, and show off someof his good manners and obedience training in hopes of coming homewith a new toy or treat.Join a class Take your dog’s training to the next level by joining anew obedience or agility class. This will provide a regular outing forboth you and your dog to look forward to each week, and give younew interactive tricks to practice together at home.Plan a FUN outdoor activity Find a scenic, pet-friendly locationfor snow shoeing, cross-country skiing, or winter hiking. Invite somefriends along to make for an enjoyable group activity.Spice up “the walk” Alternate between walking and jogging with

your dog every 10 minutes or so. This will help keep things interesting foryour pup, and it will help keep both of you feeling warmer while you’reout. Pausing the walk for snowball fetch is another exciting activity foryour dog, and you don’t have to worry about favourite dog toys gettinglost in the snow!Pet of the Week: Lily (ID# A185939)Meet Lily (ID# A185939), a playful and energetic girl looking for herpurr-fect match.Lily is a pretty brown tabby that loves to play.
