News – A homeowner’s modern design is raising the ire of some residents hoping to preserve the historic char-acter of Manotick’s Dickinson Square.

Rideau Forest resident John Brulé owns the building at 1120 Mill St. which is nestled between Watson’s Mill and Knox Presbyterian Church in the historic square.

He has applied to the city for a minor variance to allow him to maintain the irregular setbacks currently in place on the property.

His application asks for a setback of 19.77 metres from the Rideau River, while the by-law calls for 30 metres.

The current building al-ready has a setback of about 19 metres, since the property is only about 35 metres deep to begin with, but the zoning bylaws have changed since it was built.

In order to secure his build-ing permit, Brulé needs to jump through the hoops of having

those setbacks maintained. But that wasn’t what in-

terested most residents at a Manotick Village and Com-munity Association meeting on Sept. 25, which drew a crowd of about 25 people to learn about the project.

As a rendering of Brulé’s modern one-storey design circulated around the room, Rideau-Goulbourn Coun. Scott Moffatt made it clear he “strongly opposed” the build-ing’s design in the context of Dickinson Square.

“It’s an incredibly modern building in a historic square, and it just doesn’t fi t,” the councillor said. “That’s the ex-act kind of thing I don’t want to see in the square.”

The proposal is for a fl at-roofed one-storey building with an in-ground pool and at-tached garage, totalling about 3,000 square feet. The exterior offers contemporary, geomet-ric accents of wood, stone and glass.

Moffatt is also chair of the Manotick Mill Quarter Com-munity Development Corpora-tion, which is responsible for “promoting and preserving” the character of the square while it works to sell or lease the square’s heritage properties to recoup the city’s expenses.

Once Moffatt spoke up – raising the tension in the room considerably – several residents followed suit.

“We are all interested in maintaining a certain look and feel for the square,” said Allan Haan, a board member of the community association. “As attractive as (the proposal) is, it’s out of character with the mill square.”

Youth centre proposal gains support Emma [email protected]

News – Manotick’s youth crusaders may have found a home for their youth centre, if all goes well with city of-fi cials.

Rideau-Goulbourn Coun. Scott Moffatt told the Manotick Youth Centre Com-mittee on Sept. 24 that he sup-ports building a youth centre on a sliver of land in Centen-nial Park, which advocates hope will become a social hub

for Manotick teens. “(Moffatt) understands the

community is behind this and we need something more for our youth than hanging out at the skate park or the Pizza Pizza,” said Janice Doma-ratzki, the Manotick Village and Community Association member leading the project.

If the city application is approved, the youth centre would be built on the site of the old tennis clubhouse, be-tween the outdoor skating rink and Beaverwood Road.

The committee must put together a formal proposal outlining exactly what they want to build, which Moffatt will take to city staff for con-sideration.

Domaratzki is optimistic Moffatt can help them se-cure the land. “When you have a councillor champion-ing something, it moves a lot faster,” she said.

“I think the city will pay more attention.”

Association president Klaus Beltzner offered an olive branch, suggesting that the designers – who have no legal obligation to take resi-dents’ wishes into account – consider the architectural guidelines that were devel-oped to make sure a com-ing development on nearby Clapp Lane fits in with the historical nature of the square.

“What I’m looking for is the desire to work together to make this a great con-tribution to the square and for (him) to be happy in it,” Beltzner said.

Brulé said he would con-sider the guidelines and make changes if they worked

with the overall design con-cept.

“I might be even happier than I am now,” he said.

A mill stone currently sit-ting in Brulé’s basement will likely become a prominent part of the landscaping, he said.

He is willing to donate beams from the original Manotick bridge that are cur-rently a part of his home.

He is also going to match the stone on his home to that of the mill.

“We didn’t want anything to fight with the church and the mill,” said architect An-dre Godin.

The building’s footprint will certainly grow – about 1,000 square feet more than the 2,200 square foot build-

ing that exists there now – but the visible frontage along Mill Street will remain the same: about 40 feet, Go-din said.

The project will also save as many of the property’s trees as possible, except for the ones that are inside the new building’s footprint, he said.

Moffatt maintained his conviction that he speaks for most residents in the village when he opposes the modern construction in the square.

He said he is going to try and apply the architec-tural guidelines to the entire square through Manotick’s upcoming secondary plan re-view, although they wouldn’t apply retroactively to this development.

Ideally, the city would agree to a similar set-up as the Osgoode Youth Associa-tion (OYA), which converted the village’s old fi re hall into a youth centre a decade ago.

In that case, the city pays the building’s maintenance and utility costs, while its advocates must fundraise for operating costs including staff salaries and programming.

Domaratzki said she’s look-ing to OYA’s board for guid-ance as the Manotick project inches forward.

OYA director Nicole McK-erracher said getting a build-ing secured is key.

“That’s the biggest chal-lenge: having the city see the value in having youth programs in our village,” she said.

Domaratzki hopes Manotick’s centre will be fi n-ished within two years.

FOR YOUTH, BY YOUTH

Manotick teen Josh Luck-ett is a member of a Manotick Youth Leadership Group put together by outreach workers at the Nepean, Rideau and Os-goode Community Resource Centre (NROCRC) to bring some temporary programs to the village.

He offered a presentation at an information meeting on Sept. 24 that offered a broad vision of what a youth cen-tre could look like for local youth.

“We want a safe place for teens to be social and talk to each other without peer pres-sure and bad infl uences com-ing in,” Luckett wrote in his presentation. “A place where people can be themselves, help shy people to interact, help foster leadership roles, a safe place to get away from any home life troubles. We don’t want kids turning towards try-ing alcohol and drugs to satis-fy boredom or to escape their everyday lives.”

He and his peers envision a welcoming space with foos-ball tables and dart boards, “comfy furniture,” a kitchen area where they can practice their cooking skills, sports equipment and arts materials.

Scheduled events would allow teens to try new things – photography, guitar or art, for example – and home-work hours would allow them to help each other excel at school.

In the meantime, the lead-ership group, with the help of the resource centre, is work-ing to provide some youth-led programming, particularly for those ages 12 to 15 who can’t yet drive or take a part-time job.

The group has hosted two successful events so far: the fi rst was a drop-in night at the Manotick legion, and the other was a cooking workshop at the Manotick arena, both supervised by staff at the re-source centre.

The next event is a Hal-loween party on Oct. 25 at the

legion. Now staff at the resource

centre are trying to secure more funding to keep those programs going until a youth centre can be built.

They are waiting to hear back on a $2,000 application to the United Way, and will apply for a Rural Community Building Grant as well.

But funding and fundrais-ing will be on ongoing prob-lem for the youth centre com-mittee.

First, the group will have to raise enough money to build the youth centre. After that, they have to keep it running.

OYA’s operating budget is about $170,000 a year, and is sourced through an ongoing campaign of events, donation drives, grant applications and some government funding.

That’s a big source of anxi-ety for Domaratzki.

“I worry that we will not have enough community par-ticipation from adults as we work to make this centre a reality,” she said. “It takes more than one or two people to make it happen. We need adults to step up and be part of the planning, fundraising and building process.”

At a meeting on Sept. 24, Domaratzki invited interested parents to volunteer in areas of their expertise, be it com-munications, fundraising, or recruiting other people to help out.

News - Non-profi t groups in Manotick are shocked and worried that they owe the city hundreds of thousands of dollars for sewer improvements.

The charges for sewer extensions in Manotick are part of the city’s efforts to fi -nally collect fees known as “local improve-ment charges” from property owners.

“They signed a petition because they needed sewer service and they got it and they’re glad they have it. Now they are fi nd-ing that they have to pay for it,” said Ride-au-Goulbourn Coun. Scott Moffatt.

“They knew there would be a cost,” he said. But the groups didn’t realize they’d ac-tually have to pay it, since they are exempt from property taxes.

Moffatt, who was heading the court of revision meeting because the regularchair-woman Coun. Jan Harder was away, com-mitted to working to erase the amounts owed by properties in Manotick village that are exempt from taxes. That includes three churches, the legion hall and Watson’s Mill, which doesn’t have washrooms or potable water.

The non-profi t seniors’ residence, Hyfi eld Place, is a similar case and Moffatt will be looking into that. Although it isn’t exempt from property taxes, the city subsidizes half the 30 units as affordable housing. Hyfi eld Place owes $142,000 for the sewer improve-ment.

The local improvement charges apply to a number of infrastructure improvements across Ottawa that were requested by prop-erty owners who agreed to pay for the up-grades because they weren’t warranted for the city to undertake.

But while the city has been undertaking local improvement construction for a de-cade, it never sent the bills to the property owners.

City lawyer Tim Marc said the delay is a result of the city focusing on getting the construction done instead of enforcing the payments in a timely manner.

“We acknowledge that it should have been done more quickly,” Marc said.

While the city made a mistake by not col-lecting the money soon enough, it doesn’t mean property owners should be off the

hook for expensive upgrades the city made at owners’ requests, Moffatt said.

“They should be expected to pay for it,” Moffatt said. “I realize it took too long, but that’s the reality of local improvements.”

Delays in collecting the fees are “not a fair argument” for residents not to pay, Mof-fatt said.

“They’re the ones that asked for the work to be done,” he said. “If you’re a regular resident of the City of Ottawa, is that OK for you to then accept that charge because we took too long to charge it to the people who asked for it. So we’ll just let the entire city pay for the work. You’re talking about millions of dollars.”

NEW OWNERS COULD BE EXEMPT

Owners who bought their properties un-aware of the extra charge won’t have to pay, however.

In June, the city approved a program to provide relief for 73 property owners who should be on the hook to pay the city a total of $1.1 million. The city would absorb that cost instead.

The committee agreed that outstanding local improvement charges should be dis-missed if the owner bought the property after the infrastructure construction and if the tax certifi cate did not list the pending charges. Those property owners would also have to sign an affi davit saying they were not aware of the pending charges when they bought the property.

At issue now is whether the city should accept a different type of documentation from owners to prove they were unaware of extra charges owing on their property when they purchased it.

Ron Corbett, a Manotick resident, said the city’s program doesn’t offer “real relief” because real estate agents advise homebuy-ers to register for title insurance – not a tax certifi cate.

“We did not request a tax certifi cate,” he told the court of revision. “We have title in-surance, which is the norm.

“We certainly were not expecting a hid-den tax liability that is the same amount as four years of taxes.”

That leaves property owners who could benefi t from the relief program in a pickle because they don’t have the right paper-work.

“Clearly we have a condition that might not be appropriate in terms of capturing the people we were intending to capture,” Mof-fatt said.

City lawyer Tim Marc, with Moffatt’s

support, said staff will look at the issue and see if there is a fi x that could be brought to council before the end of the year.

An important consideration is for prop-erty owners who fall into that category to ensure they register to delay their payments to begin in June of 2014, Marc said, leaving time for the city to work out the kinks in the relief program.

He also advised people to seek their own legal advice on the matter.

Interest charges have also been reduced or waived on some of the charges.

Do you no�ce swelling of the ankles, spider veins in the lower legs. Pooling in the lower legs is caused by valves that do not close properly in the veins and that sets of a cascade of problems when you sit or stand for too long a period of �me.

Many of us may experience heaviness in our legs, swelling and/or poor circula�on in our life�me and using gradient compression hose can help to move the blood more efficiently back to your heart.

Just because our health needs require products to assist us doesn’t mean we have to sacrifice our fashion or lifestyle for it. BioPed Footcare Centre www.bioped.com in O�awa, Ontario offers a complete range of compression stockings, ideal for relieving pain resul�ng from general aches and pains, diseases and disorders, while also having an appearance that doesn’t get in the way of our lifestyles and fashion choices.

These aren’t your grandmother’s compression stockings www.bioped.com/products compression_stockings.asp. Compression stockings have a somewhat falsified reputa�on that they are ugly brown stockings (o�en�mes worn only by seniors) without a hint of a stylish note. This impression may have been accurate years ago, but it is not so today. BioPed offers a stylish variety of compression stockings, appealing

for both genders and all personal styles. Our compression stockings are available in an array of colours, pa�erns, styles, and levels of sheerness. When you wear these compression stockings, no one will know the difference from regular socks or stockings; you can look great and feel great, too!

Compression stockings are useful to relieve and treat a wide range of condi�ons. You do not have to be a senior to feel the benefits of compression stockings. Many pregnant women who experience swelling of the feet and legs find relief wearing them, just as someone would if they have a vein condi�on or diabetes. BioPed understands that pain can occur for both men and women, people of all ages, and as a result of a wide range of condi�ons. That’s why we offer a great selec�on of compression stockings that are effec�ve, comfortable, discreet and stylish.

For added comfort and relief, the team at BioPed can measure you for compression stockings so that they fit you properly and provide the right amount of support you require. A discussion with your family physician is also recommended to ensure the right prescrip�on is wri�en for you.

News – The Township of Os-goode Care Centre was the hottest spot on the block as it unveiled its much-awaited fi reman calendar at the facility on Sept. 26.

Firefi ghters, family members, local business owners and area residents poured into the long-term care home on Snake Island Road to get a fi rst look at the 2014 calendar, which hits stores this week.

The care centre’s fundraising committee partnered with volun-teer fi refi ghters at Station 91 in Metcalfe to produce the calendar.

Throughout the 12 months, res-idents and fi refi ghters are pictured in all sorts of situations – some hilarious, some sweet and some downright silly.

One month, resident Eleanor Norris teaches a class while two fi refi ghters pass notes under their desks; in another, residents drive off in the truck with the fi refi ght-ers in hot pursuit.

Flipping through the pages, a resident has her cat rescued, fl ow-ers are handed out and fi refi ghters join residents for a sing-a-long around the piano.

Burt Lamoureux, the station’s public education representative,

said the guys had an incredible time working with the residents to make the calendar.

“We had so much fun doing it, it should have been a Youtube video,” he laughed. He said he can’t look at any of the photos without remembering all the hi-larious things that happened on

set throughout the fi ve photo shoots. The fact that the calendar will help people in his community only makes it better.

“This is the community we all live in,” he said. “Some of have us have friends and family who live here.” The care centre has been working to raise $500,000 to up-

grade the facility from top to bot-tom. The committee has printed 1,000 calendars, which are being sold for $20 each.

They will be available at the fa-cility and various stores through-out the region.

For more information call 613-821-1034.

News – For Manotick, by Manotick: that’s what villagers want to see as the city initiates its secondary plan review this fall.

At the Manotick Village and Community Association’s monthly meeting on Sept. 25, community leaders told city planner Rose Kung that it’s not enough to give feedback to the city as it updates the village’s main planning document; they want to play a major part in its development.

“We’d like to drive the pro-cess and benefi t from the city’s expertise,” said Pierre Viau, a vice-president at the commu-nity association.

“We’re not asking to be con-sulted,” added association pres-ident Klaus Beltzner. “We want to be part of the work, and the planning of that work.”

The city is currently devel-oping its terms of reference for Manotick’s secondary plan review process, which it hopes to bring to the community for feedback sometime this fall. The terms of reference would defi ne what parts of the docu-ment need to be updated, what kinds of consultants and ex-perts are needed to get it done, and what role the community will play.

Ideally, Beltzner wants a steering committee with repre-sentatives from Manotick resi-dents, business owners, local developers and other stakehold-ers to guide the review process

alongside the city. Residents are wary of a city-

led plan, board member Brian Tansley said, because the last secondary plan created 15 years ago was indefensible at the On-tario Municipal Board, which allowed Minto to win rights to its Mahogany development the mid-2000s.

Kung said her team plans to improve the secondary plan to “make it more watertight” but wouldn’t commit to a commu-nity-led process.

“Parks (department) won’t see it as a community-driven plan,” she told the small crowd at the Manotick library.

The village’s secondary plan review was supposed to take place last year as part of a city-wide village policy review, but when city staff got into the con-sultation process they realized more work was needed than time allowed.

“There were a lot of things to update,” Kung said. “So we

said we would do it at a future date, and that date is now.”

The plan’s employment lands policy to have commer-cial development near Highway 416 is out of date with provin-cial laws to protect prime farm-land, for example, and zoning by-laws also no longer sync with the plan, Kung said.

She said the review will re-quire a village core and con-nectivity study to explore where sidewalks and paths are needed. A parking study is also necessary.

The city completed some of the review’s initial legwork in 2012, when they held several public meetings to hear from residents what needs to be changed or updated in the sec-ondary plan.

Even though the process was deferred, the information is still valid, Kung said. She hopes to bring the terms of ref-erence plan to the community later this fall.


Manotick Village and Community Association president Klaus Beltzner explains his views to city planner Rose Kung at a meeting about the upcoming secondary plan review.

OPINIONOPINION Connected to your community

In the fall fair season we get a chance to see things from a different perspective.

That can be simple as noticing the houses in a small town as you cruise

the small-town streets looking for a place to park, or it can be as profound as witnessing signifi cant instances of behaviour modifi ca-tion.

For example: standing in the mud in front of the merry-go-round at the Richmond Fair and waiting for grandchildren to revolve past me, I notice something odd about the 20 or so adults on the contraption.

None of them is checking a phone.You have to admit that’s pretty remark-

able. When was the last time you looked at 20 adults and none was checking a phone? 1997? Or maybe in church, although even that is by no means certain.

People will check their phones any time, any place. It’s not just that someone may be phoning them. It’s also that the phone has a weather update, a hockey score, a favourite song, a movie review, a Sudoku, a text – each of which could be more interesting than what’s going on right here, right now.

They are called smart phones, although the adjective does not automatically apply to their owners.

Knowing the power of the smart phone,

it is an event when you notice people not checking it. So it leads you to investigate further.

That investigation reveals that it is not just on the merry-go-round that people are not checking their phones. It is all over the fair-grounds. People walk by talking with each other, looking around, seemingly aware of their surroundings. It is quite refreshing.

The question is why. We are people, remember, who value our communications devices so much that we now must carry a bagful of wires, in case our phones need charging, or our iPads or BlackBerrys or iPods.

(As an aside, did you ever stop to think about how many more wires we all need to carry now that we are in the Wireless Age?)

Why do people not check their phones at

the fair? The answer has to be that they are afraid

they will miss something if they do. There are all the rides, including that whirly one you’d have to pay me big money to go on. There are the animals, or that puppet show over there. There are all the booths – the embroidery, the hats, the candy, the fresh donuts.

Fire trucks! Cotton candy! Politicians!If you’re looking at your phone you will

walk right by, not noticing.This is an important way the country fair

differs from ordinary life. The country fair has variety, things you don’t expect, things more interesting than what’s on your phone. If you look down you might miss something. For one thing, you might miss an expression on a child’s face.

The challenge now is to apply the products of this important new research. The goal is obvious: to make city life more like a country fair so that people won’t be checking their phones all the time.

But the means aren’t obvious. We can’t have heavy horses all over the downtown. Ferris wheels won’t fi t in most urban spaces. And for all we know there are probably zon-ing bylaws against cotton candy in certain neighbourhoods.

Still, it would be nice if city life contained a few more pleasant surprises than it does now, even if it meant more mud on the streets.

If you look at the truly interesting city neighbourhoods in the world, you’ll notice that they contain stores that you didn’t expect, stores that specialize in odd things, like clothing for pets or books about sports or country music on vinyl. You’ll fi nd dead-end streets and little squares with little parks, tiny churches.

You might not fi nd banks or giant drug-stores or chain coffee shops where people are busy looking at their phones.

City life could use a little more country fl air

United Way needs clear goals

COLUMN

The United Way Ottawa announced a $21-million community campaign goal on Sept. 24, a signifi cant drop from last year’s target of $30 million.

Simple subtraction tells us the organization is looking to raise $9 million less than the 2012-13 fundraising year.

The decrease seems to follow a disturbing trend over the past two years. In 2011, the organization announced a $33 million goal, but fell short by $1 million; the following year the target was set at $30 million.

On the face of it, the numbers seem to indicate the charity will have fewer dollars to support local charities. But numbers can be deceiving, according to the charity’s executive director Michael Allen during last week’s breakfast launch at the Ernest and Young Centre.

Allen explains the $9 million drop in this year’s campaign target as not less, just different.

We scratched our collective heads over that reasoning. Unfortunately, the campaign offers a con-fusing chain of logic to explain how much money it needs to raise and how it uses the money, turning the process into a benign form of a classic shell game.

Yes, the charity is looking to raise fewer dollars

– but this year’s target only includes donations to lo-cal United Way programs.

Donors will still be able to donate money to other charities, said Allen, but that money is considered separate – beyond the $21 million campaign goal.

Three years ago, the United Way Ottawa changed the way it allocated funds collected during the campaign, creating priorities and criteria to appeal to donors. In fact, the organization is actually looking to increase the amount of money it allocates to its com-munity partners based on last year’s total of roughly $16 million. But the problem is the United Way is doing a poor job of communicating how it defi nes its needs and the way it uses campaign dollars.

Confusing potential donors could ultimately trans-late into fewer donations.

The United Way Ottawa spends too much time telling us how much the charity wants to help people, as opposed to defi ning those needs and presenting a simple-to-understand battle plan.

When a charity announces a drop in its fundraising target, it only makes sense to offer a straightforward explanation for the decrease.

With so many charities out there competing for limited donations, it only makes sense to put together a good sales pitch.

News - The Manotick Karen Refugee Sponsorship Program is working to help a family of six fi nd refuge in Ottawa after their village in Thailand was burned down.

The group hosted a barbecue at the Manotick Village Butcher Shop, which donated the food, on Sat-urday, Sept. 21. The event helped raise more than $560 for the refugee sponsorship program.

The goal is to raise $35,000 to help the family relocate by the end of 2014. Currently, the group has raised more than $17,000.

“They desperately want to come … for hope for their children,” said Joan Bowler, one of the members of the sponsorship group.

The program is run through St. James Anglican Church in Manotick. The parish will be responsible for housing and caring for the family for one year.

The family has to be capable of learning English within the fi rst year and employable within two years in order to be eligible, said Bowler.

Nimrod Andrew, a member of the

Karen refugee sponsorship commit-tee, is an invaluable resource and help in the process, added Bowler.

Andrew survived 14 years in a Thai refugee camp after his village was burned to the ground by Bur-mese soldiers.

“He came to Canada nine years ago as a Karen refugee on a World University Scholarship,” said Bowl-er. “Nimrod, who is a member of our committee, will be invaluable as a translator for our Karen family and a resource to help the family ad-just to life in Ottawa.”

The family, which includes mother Say Paw, father Thein, and daughters Paw Ku Tee, 11, and Ku Moo, 16, along with twin sons Sar Ku Htoo and Sar Ku Say, fl ed to a Thailand refugee camp after their village was attacked and burned to the ground and the children’s grand-father killed by the Burmese mili-tary.

“We want to have freedom, safety and security for our family,” said the parents in a note to the sponsorship program. “We want to have hope for a better life to support ourselves and to have our children educated.”

The Manotick Karen Refugee

Sponsorship Program will host a number of events over the coming months to continue raising funds:

• Nov. 18: Valdy, born Valdemar Horsdal, is a Juno award-winning pop and folk music singer. He will

perform at St. James starting at 7:30 p.m. There will be a wine and cheese reception.

• Dec. 7: The Anglican Christ Church Cathedral Men and Boys Choir will perform a Christmas con-

cert at St. James, with a tea recep-tion, starting at 2:30 p.m.

For more information or to do-nate to the cause, contact Bowler at 613-692-2900 or Joy Clarke at 613-692-6486.

Kids Have Stress Too

We think of children as carefree and happy. Sometimes as parents, we forget that our children can suffer from stress too. They may be going to a new school or daycare, getting used to a new routine or they may be watching the news of the recent tragedy in the city and hearing stories about it at school. All of these can make children feel anxious or stressed. It is important to remember that children look to parents to make them feel safe.

• Physical signs of stress can include headaches, stomach-aches, changes in appetite, difficulty sleeping and nightmares.

• Emotional signs of stress can appear as anger, sadness, crankiness or whining.

• Some children withdraw from their usual activities or have poor concentration.

• Give them your full attention and listen so you can hear what they have to say.

• Empathize with them and help them label their feelings, for example “that must have made you sad”.

• Turn off the screens to talk instead.

• Talk to them in a calm, soothing voice.

• Show interest in what is bothering them no matter how minor it may seem.

• Have young children draw a picture of their feelings.

• Spend quiet time together reading, making a craft, or doing a puzzle. Children will often talk about a problem when given the chance.

• Have dinner together as a family.

• Give them a hug.

News – Metcalfe’s annual agricultural fair is much more than the livestock shows it’s famous for.

This year, fairgoers can take in a number of shows over the course of the Oct. 5 week-end, including concerts from Hadrian’s Wall, DW James and the Bowes Brothers.

The family-friendly car show and truck and tractor pulls will also return Sunday afternoon after a successful inaugural year last September.

“There are lots of things to do,” said fair administrator Meredith Brophy, who said as many as 30,000 people could pass through the gate if the weather holds.

The Metcalfe Fair has been held in the village since 1856, and still boasts a strong agricultural core that includes horse shows, 4-H auctions, agricultural exhibitions and a

step dance and fi ddling competition. “That’s our focus, to be an agricultural

fair,” Brophy said.Still, the fair is a welcoming place even

for visitors who’ve never stepped foot on a farm.

The Barn Door exhibit offers educational agricultural displays with a farm-to-fork explanation of our food system – including live animal exhibits.

On Thursday, Oct. 3 a demolition derby will put drivers to the test to see who has the last car standing. That show will be followed by a performance from the Bay County B’ys.

On Friday, Oct. 4 the Kidzland tent will open with a line-up of musicians, magicians and performers, which continues throughout the weekend. Seniors can come together in-side the community centre for refreshments and entertainment in the afternoon, and DW James will take the stage on Friday night.

Saturday is by far the busiest day at the fair, with an antique tractor show, step danc-ing competition and several livestock shows fi lling up the schedule. The Bowes Brothers will entertain in the afternoon and Hadrian’s Wall will take over in the evening.

The classic car and hot rod show returns on Sunday alongside the truck pull, fashion show and a performance from Jordan Mc-Intosh.

News – It’s time to make Tom Sell-eck proud as the second annual Flash a ‘Stache campaign gets underway in Winchester.

The campaign supports prostate cancer awareness and research at the Winchester District Memorial Hospi-tal Foundation as well as the Ottawa Hospital Foundation.

Beginning in November, men and women can collect pledges to grow, groom, trim, wax, or even fashion a fake to make their way into the annals of fi ne moustachery. Participants will show off their facial fi nery at a wrap-

up event on Nov. 29 at the Joel Steele Community Centre in Winchester.

Proceeds will be split between the two foundations, with the Ottawa Hospital’s funds supporting a study program on men’s health as it relates to prostate cancer.

Last year the Flash a ‘Stache event raised $57,000 for the cause, primar-ily through pledges. Organizations, businesses and individuals also found innovative ways to raise funds to sup-port this initiative. Participants can register at fl ashastache.ca, and must be clean shaven on Oct. 31.

“We look forward to a fun event with a focus on creating more pros-tate cancer awareness in the region,” said organizer Tom Clapp in a state-ment. “We encourage organizations and businesses to become more in-formed about prostate cancer through the month of November.”

For information contact Tom Clapp at 613-774-3565.

METROLAND EAST SPECIAL REPORT

There’s an elephant in the room and it’s crowding Ot-tawa’s hospitals.

Too many people are dy-ing in hospital because they haven’t had honest discussions about death, according to palliative care doctor José Pereira.

These conversations – a patient’s preferred place to die, the level of treatment and their concept of com-fort – must start long before a person is weeks away from death, he said.

“If we only think about palliative care from the last days or weeks of life, many people are going to suffer unnecessarily for the time they have left,” he said.

For one Ottawa woman, who Pereira didn’t name for privacy rea-sons, this lack of planning led to con-fusion for both her and her family.

Just a few months before she died her doctors at Bruyère Continuing Care still didn’t consider the woman a palliative patient. As her health failed, she was receiving treatments she likely didn’t need any more.

“This was a lady who had been struggling with end-stage heart dis-ease, very, very advanced heart dis-ease for many years. And suddenly in the last few months (she was) admit-ted to a hospital, and put on all sorts of treatments,” Pereira said.

She started a regime of antibiotics, and was put on dialysis for kidney failure. She began to question the benefi t of being hooked up to ma-chines this late in her illness, Pereira said. “She was saying, ‘I know I’m dying ... my goal is to be as comfort-able as possible.’”

A quick look at her chart was tell-ing: scrawled in a colleague’s note, the words “the patient is not yet pal-liative.”

COHESIVE CARE

Pereira’s colleague wasn’t be-ing oblivious; there are hundreds of health-care professionals across the city and province who share the same view that palliative care is only relevant in the last few weeks of life.

“Health professionals in general haven’t received much education in this area,” said Pereira, a doctor at Bruyère Continuing Care and the Ot-tawa Hospital.

“We get trained in our different specialties but we haven’t in the past done a good job of training new doc-

tors, new nurses, new pharmacists in the principles of palliative and end-of-life care.”

A new Ottawa program aims to change that.

Célestin Abedi heads the new Champlain Hospice Palliative Care Program, the fi rst of its kind in On-tario that wants to get all health pro-fessionals on the same page when it comes to end of life care.

It’s an initiative that aspires to change the way palliative care is de-livered – and how it’s funded.

“The issue is not only beds,” Abedi said. “It’s how we can create a more seamless transition for clients from one service provider to another,”

Ottawa has a “strategic advantage” in the palliative care fi eld, Abedi said. Some of the national leaders in the fi eld call Ottawa home and the city also benefi ts from having the Bru-yère community, the largest palliative care provider and research body in Canada.

Despite a wealth of expertise and resources, access to palliative and

hospice care delivery in Ottawa has been disjointed.

“There were a lot of initiatives that different local communities were working on but there wasn’t any kind of connection with what they were doing and what the hospital is doing,” Abedi said.

Part of the regional network’s goal is to help patients and caregivers cre-ate a palliative care plan that starts long before the patient is in the fi nal days of their life.

“(This) is a paradigm shift. The current system – it was somewhat very fragmented and key players were left out,” Abedi said. “What we’ve done (is) to bring everybody together to have a common vision of what should be the right palliative care for the population.

“And from there, we’ve made tre-mendous progress.”

It sounds simple, but identifying common, validated tools and training

and creating a standardized approach for how care is delivered will go a long way, Abedi said.

Part of the challenge is bringing the entire range of palliative-care providers into the fold and adopting a common mindset. Instead of reactive, symptom-focused care delivered by several different providers who don’t necessarily communicate with each other, the regional program looks to bring all providers on board with a more holistic approach.

Providing continuity of care throughout the course of a patient’s illness is the goal. But achieving it means unraveling a complex web of family physicians, emergency-room doctors, oncologists, homecare pro-viders, day hospice programs and more.

Something as straightforward as creating an electronic record of treat-ments that’s shared amongst a pa-tient’s entire health-care team is a nut that can take months to crack, Abedi said.

Step one was creating a clearing house for processing applications for palliative care. There are now two nurses working out of Bruyère Con-tinuing Care who use their expertise in palliative care to assess a standard intake form and place patients on a waiting list for the type of care that best suits their needs.

That’s one major step towards a truly integrated system, said Lynn Kachuik, an Ottawa Hospital nurse who is an expert in palliative care and sits on the regional program’s council.

“By going to the (centralized) sys-tem we are able to simplify the access … So they’ve got the data they need to make a decision based on what the needs of the patient are,” she said. “We’ve been much more effi cient in using the beds effectively.”

MAKING THE BEDS

Centralizing the hospice and pal-liative care system on a larger scale is another goal for regional network.

By October, Ottawa will have 19 residential hospice beds run by one umbrella group called Hospice Care Ottawa.

The organization is a merger of the Friends of Hospice Ottawa and the Hospice at May Court, which were operating separately until a year ago. The two groups amalgam-ated to integrate funding and services for the city.

Merging Maycourt and the Friends of Hospice was not a painless pro-cess, Abedi said, but now the city has one entity that can look at the needs of the entire city.

“We cannot allow ourselves to have so many players who are not connected whatsoever,” Abedi said. “We cannot sustain that.”

Aligning service providers means existing funding can be used better, said Pereira.

Beyond the bedside

“Sometimes it’s not just about more funding, sometimes it’s about allocating the money we have more appropriately,” Pereira said. “I really think what this project (the hospice merger) shows is that when you bring all the stakeholders together you can reallocate the existing funding in a much better way.”

Pereira has witnessed the positive effects of this approach through his work at a residential hospice in Ed-monton in 1995.

“The research shows that if we do it properly, people have less depres-sion, less anxiety and may in fact even live longer,” he said.

Ottawa’s hospice still has a long way to go, said Lisa Sullivan, execu-tive director of Hospice Care Ottawa.

“In terms of the size of Ottawa, we know it could benefi t with a lot more beds,” Sullivan said.

A study from Bruyère Continuing Care in Ottawa suggested the city needs somewhere between 70 to 80 beds for a population of one million, but the regional program has set a goal of 40 beds.

Currently, the city has nine hos-pice beds available at May Court and eight beds at the Embassy West Se-nior Living on Carling Avenue. Two more beds will be added by October.

By 2016, the organization plans to build a 10-bed residential hospice in Kanata, followed by 10 beds in the east end and then 10 more beds in the south end, Sullivan said.

But the focus on beds isn’t nec-essarily the most pressing issue, Sullivan said. There is an overwhelm-ing need to boost bereavement and

day hospice programs.

FUNDING FLIP

In Ottawa, the biggest player in residential hospice care needs $1.6 million a year just to keep the lights on.

“We need to raise $1.6 million just to operate. No extra bells and whistles,” said Sullivan. “That is our biggest need.”

Under the current provincial formu-la, most residential hospices receive around $246 per bed per day though the Champlain Local Health Integra-tion Network. That covers roughly 40 per cent of their operating budgets.

“That money comes with a lot of strings,” Abedi said. It can be used only to cover for nursing staff and personal support workers.

Rick Firth, executive director of Hospice Palliative Care Ontario, would like to see that number grow to 80 per cent, but recognizes that funding residential hospice beds is a relatively new practice in Ontario.

“It’s easy to say they’re not fund-ing 100 per cent, but you look at 2002 with zero dollars to hospice and then in 2006 there was about $24 million allocated,” Firth said. “And it contin-ues to grow.”

Recognizing that a hospice bed costs $439 a day compared to $850 a day for an acute care bed in a hos-pital, many palliative care experts

argue the province’s money would be more effectively spent on hospice beds to free up hospital beds.

In Ottawa, Abedi’s ultimate goal is to convince the LHIN to reverse the funding balance and pay for 60 to 80 per cent of the cost of hospice care.

“We are working to collect enough data to advise the LHIN to change that funding formula,” Abedi said.

If the province’s goal is to have hospice to play a bigger role within the health care system, Abedi said “it is not correct” to ask hospices to fundraise for 60 per cent of their budgets.

On the advice of the hospice pal-liative regional program in Ottawa, the LHIN is now funding around 65 per cent of nursing costs for the amalgamated local hospice group.

Navigating that uncharted terri-tory of making incremental decisions that will build towards a new funding model will fall to Ottawa because it is a leader in the palliative-care fi eld.

“When you look at palliative care, we’ve got a lot that other areas don’t have,” said Kachuik, the Ottawa Hos-pital palliative-care nurse specialist. “I think we’ve taken great strides in developing what I would call an inte-grated system.”

While Ottawa still has work to do, it is a leader compared to other parts of the province, particularly rural areas. The Thunder Bay region has no hospice beds at all, and the South East LHIN, stretching from Bel-leville to Smiths Falls and north to part of Lanark County, only opened its fi rst three beds this summer.

Other regions of Ontario plan to follow Ottawa’s lead by starting their own regional programs for palliative and hospice care. But in the mean-time, experts in Ottawa will set the example for a shift in how end-of-life care is delivered.

Staff at Hospice Renfrew know all too well the limita-tions of a rural location.

The hospice’s six beds run in the small town of Renfrew are the only ones in the county, and they’re almost always fi lled with patients living out their fi nal days.

A registered nurse and a personal support worker are there 24 hours a day, and the hospice also maintains a small administration. About 50 volunteers cover the reception desk, run support programs, plan events, tend the garden and bake homemade snacks for residents.

But it’s not enough. Six beds can’t meet demand for an

entire county, and there’s a constant list of patients waiting to get a bed, said hospice director Diane Caughey.

Some of them die before the beds be-come available.

But adding more beds isn’t exact-ly feasible, either.

The Ontario government funds less than half of the hospice’s $1 million operating costs, and all of that money goes to nursing care, Caughey said.

“There’s a need for sustainable funding that will cover operations,” she said. “There are fundraising chal-lenges in a small rural community.”

Fewer people means fewer dol-lars, and there’s always competition from other fundraising health care facilities in the region.

“The challenge is ... how does a community of 5,000 people raise the $1 million a year to support it?” asked Hospice Palliative Care Ontar-

io’s executive director Rick Firth.Renfrew is not alone in this.Rural hospice beds are few and far

between. According to Firth, the vast majority of the province’s 231 beds are located in urban areas.

Until July, the South East Local Health Integration Network (LHIN) covering Belleville, Kingston, Smiths Falls and parts of Lanark County had no hospice beds at all, and the North-West LHIN in the Thunder Bay region still lacks any residential facilities.

Part of the problem is that provin-cial funding for hospices is designat-ed solely for nursing staff – $90,000 per bed - and that base cost is the same no matter how many beds a hospice has.

“In the smaller facilities it’s more

of a challenge because the nursing model requires a registered nurse present 24/7,” Firth said. “So in a situation like Renfrew where there’s six beds (instead of the standard 10), you still have the need for an RN 24/7. You can’t split a nurse in two. So proportionately they get less funding per bed.”

A six-bed hospice like Renfrew should get $116,000 instead of $90,000, he said.

The other problem is geography. To cut costs, several villages or townships will collaborate to cover a region. A day hospice program could be located in one town, Firth said, but residential hospice beds might be in another.

This creates an access problem for patients and family members who

must travel long distances to get to the facility they need.

The new hospice program inside the South East LHIN hopes to ad-dress some of those issues.

Instead of building the standard 10-bed model in a centralized, ur-ban location, the beds will be spread around.

In July, Hospice Prince Edward opened three beds in Picton and the South East LHIN plans to monitor how they are used before opening the remaining seven beds in sev-eral other small groups across the region.

Firth said rural access is one of his organization’s biggest priorities mov-ing forward, and it will participate in a ministry-led committee this fall to facilitate rural-focused solutions.

973Lifestyle - Use the rice and

fi sh still slightly warm for best results, and assemble the rolls just before serving.

That will keep the toasted nori wrappers crispy.

Serve with a small dish of soy sauce and some additional wasabi.

Preparation time: 10 min-utes.

Marinating time: 30 minutes. Serves four.

INGREDIENTS

• 1 fresh trout fi llet, skin on (about 375 g/12 oz)•25 ml (2 tbsp) soy sauce•15 ml (1 tbsp) liquid honey•15 ml (1 tbsp) rice vinegar• 10 ml (2 tsp) wasabi paste• 10 ml (2 tsp) fi nely minced fresh gingerroot•300 ml (1-1/4 cups) water• 250 ml (1 cup) sushi rice, well rinsed in cold water• 50 ml (1/4 cup) seasoned rice vinegar• 15 ml (1 tbsp) toasted sesame seeds• 4 toasted nori sheets• 1/2 sweet yellow pepper, thinly slivered • 1 carrot, thinly slivered• 8 stalks watercress

PREPARATION

Rinse the fi sh under cold water and pat dry. In a shallow dish, combine the soy sauce, honey, rice vinegar, wasabi and ginger. Add the fi sh, turning to coat. Refrigerate for 30 minutes or up to two hours.

In a medium, heavy-bot-tomed saucepan, combine the water and rice. Cover and bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low and simmer for 12 to 15 minutes or until the water is absorbed. Remove the pan from the heat and let the rice stand, covered, for 15 minutes. Gently stir in the seasoned vinegar with fork. Then divide the rice into four portions and cover with damp

cloths.Spray a grill pan or a grill

with cooking spray. Remove the trout from the marinade and place skin-side down on the grill over medium-high heat. Cover with the lid closed for one to two minutes. Turn the fi sh with a spatula, then cover and cook for two more minutes or until fi sh fl akes easily with fork. Remove the skin and sprinkle both sides with the toasted sesame seeds. Place the sheets of nori on clean dishcloths or a bamboo sushi mat lined with plastic wrap. Dampen your fi ngers with water and lightly press one portion of the rice into thin layer to cover one sheet of nori, leaving a 2.5

centimetre (one-inch) section at the top edge without rice.

Make shallow groove along centre of the rice and place a few slivers of yellow pepper and carrot inside groove. Top with one-quarter of the trout, broken into narrow pieces with your fi ngers, and a few sprigs water-cress. Curl edge of the cloth/mat to help form the toasted nori into cylinder, pressing fi rmly to enclose fi lling, then seal the edge with water. Repeat with remaining ingredients to make four rolls. Slice each roll into bite-sized pieces.

Lifestyle - It was a complete mystery to me.

I never thought much about it before Uncle Lou, with his usual feeling of compassion for Mother, installed our fi rst telephone out on the farm in Northcote. But once that beautiful oak contraption was hung on our wall in the kitchen, I was in complete awe of how some-one not even in our house

knew when we wanted to talk to someone miles away or they wanted to talk to us.

That someone was right in-

side Briscoe’s General Store. She sat on a padded chair in front of a big board with holes in it and long cords

trapped in a desk-like affair in front of her. Usually, a light would come on, but some-times a little bell would ring and she would know exactly what to do with those cords and the holes in the board with the red lights fl ashing.

Sometimes, Mr. Briscoe manned what was called the switchboard himself, but I have little memory of his voice coming into our oak phone on the kitchen wall. It was some-one we simply called “Cen-tral.”

The very fi rst day we got the phone, will stay in my mind forever. Mother cried. Not from sadness, but from the sheer wonder of fi nally being able to talk to someone at will beyond the four walls of our old log house.

That fi rst night, we sat around the kitchen waiting for the phone to ring. There was no looking through the Eaton’s catalogue that night, or whittling or playing cards at the pine table. Even Mother’s diaries never left the back-to-the-wall cupboard. We sat in a circle as if we were in a theatre. Finally, it came around to bedtime and it looked very much like the phone was not going to ring.

It was Mother who decided, if no one was going to call in, she would call out.

She went to the beautiful new phone, which I thought was every bit as nice as the new oak ice box grandfather bought for us, and took the receiver off the hook and pressed a little black button on the side of the box.

“Could I please talk to Ber-tha Thom,” she said into the black mouthpiece. And there it was -- there was Mother talking to Aunt Bertha, just as if she was in another room and not across the Twenty-Acre Field on the next farm.

When the phone was put in that day, we were told our ring was “two longs and a short.” It didn’t take us long to know the rings of everyone else in Northcote. But it re-ally didn’t matter if we knew the right rings or not, because “Central” was well acquaint-ed with the rings of everyone for kilometres around.

Having a phone was not without its problems. When it rang, it could be for any number of homes in North-cote. As many as four or even fi ve other families shared the line. We soon found out you had to be extremely

careful what you said on the phone because if they chose to listen in, everyone who took off their receiver were privileged to your conversa-tion. It wasn’t unusual to have your complete conversation repeated the next day at the General Store!

It also wasn’t unusual to pick up the receiver and ask Central if she knew where Mrs. Hines was -- her advice was needed. Central always knew where everyone was. Sometimes when Mother rang a neighbour, Central would come on and say, “Oh, she’s gone into Renfrew to Walkers. She needed some lace trim for a blouse she’s making. She should be back in a couple hours. Do you want me to ring you when she gets home?”

Central was the lifeblood of the entire neighbourhood. If there was a fi re, or any other emergency, somehow Central was able to ring all the farms at the same time, at least that seemed to be the case, because everyone responded in time to give a helping hand where needed.

Mother always felt safer once we had the phone put in on the farm.

Do you no�ce swelling of the ankles, spider veins in the lower legs. Pooling in the lower legs is caused by valves that do not close properly in the veins and that sets of a cascade of problems when you sit or stand for too long a period of �me.

Many of us may experience heaviness in our legs, swelling and/or poor circula�on in our life�me and using gradient compression hose can help to move the blood more efficiently back to your heart.

Just because our health needs require products to assist us doesn’t mean we have to sacrifice our fashion or lifestyle for it. BioPed Footcare Centre www.bioped.com in O�awa, Ontario offers a complete range of compression stockings, ideal for relieving pain resul�ng from general aches and pains, diseases and disorders, while also having an appearance that doesn’t get in the way of our lifestyles and fashion choices.

These aren’t your grandmother’s compression stockings www.bioped.com/products compression_stockings.asp. Compression stockings have a somewhat falsified reputa�on that they are ugly brown stockings (o�en�mes worn only by seniors) without a hint of a stylish note. This impression may have been accurate years ago, but it is not so today. BioPed offers a stylish variety of compression stockings, appealing

for both genders and all personal styles. Our compression stockings are available in an array of colours, pa�erns, styles, and levels of sheerness. When you wear these compression stockings, no one will know the difference from regular socks or stockings; you can look great and feel great, too!

Compression stockings are useful to relieve and treat a wide range of condi�ons. You do not have to be a senior to feel the benefits of compression stockings. Many pregnant women who experience swelling of the feet and legs find relief wearing them, just as someone would if they have a vein condi�on or diabetes. BioPed understands that pain can occur for both men and women, people of all ages, and as a result of a wide range of condi�ons. That’s why we offer a great selec�on of compression stockings that are effec�ve, comfortable, discreet and stylish.

Volunteers test water quality of Jock RiverJessica [email protected]

Community - Volunteers braved rainy weather and waded out into the mouth of the Jock River at the Rideau River, collecting samples of insects to test the quality of the water.

Chelsey Ellis, a former Barrhaven resident currently living in New Edinburgh, said the event is held once a year, giving people a chance to get hands-on with nature.

Streams, lakes and creeks are tested twice a year; once in the spring and once in the fall to get an idea of the health of the water, said Ellis, City Stream Watch co-ordinator.

The Rideau Valley Conser-vation Authority, City Stream Watch, and the Ottawa Fly-fi shers Society hosted the sixth-annual aquatic insect and fl y fi shing workshop at Jock River Landing on Sat-urday, Sept. 21. Participants spent the morning collect-ing invertebrates living in the water before learning how to properly cast a line.

Adrienne Lewis, who grew up in Kanata and currently resides in Arnprior, demon-strated the “water dance” to the group, showing them how to stir up the silt to fi nd the water-dwelling bugs.

To perform the H2O two-step, participants twisted their feet into the bottom of the lake and used a long pole with a net on the end to scoop up anything that came loose.

Dressed in rubber waders and carrying long-poled nets, volunteers took to the water to perform the water dance. After each turn, the nets were

emptied into white containers fi lled with water then sorted through to see what types of invertebrates are living in the river.

Found among the silt were water boatman, crawfi sh, water scorpions and mega-loptera, the latter being “an indicator of really good wa-ter quality,” said Lewis, an aquatic resource technician with the Rideau Valley Con-servation Authority and City Stream Watch.

The Rideau Valley

Conservation Authority part-nered with seven other Ottawa agencies – City of Ottawa, Heron Park Community As-sociation, Ottawa Flyfi shers Society, Rideau Roundtable, National Defense Headquar-ters - Fish and Game Club, Ottawa Stewardship Coun-cil and the National Capital Commission – to create the City Stream Watch.

The purpose of the program is to gather, record and man-age information on the health of waterways in the city.

Pet Adoptions

Please note: The Ottawa Humane Society has many other companion animals available for adoption. Featured animals are adopted quickly! To learn more about adopting an animal from the Ottawa Humane Society please contact us: Website: Email: Telephone:

From being a responsible pet owner to volunteering at the Ottawa Humane Society, there are many ways you can help Ottawa’s animals.

As the weather cools and thoughts turn to the fall and winter holidays, many people begin to plan how to support the causes they believe in. For animal-lovers, one way to make a difference is by directing all or part of your United Way gifts to the animals at the OHS. United

Way-directed gifts help the OHS rescue lost, abandoned, neglected and abused animals in our community and give them a second chance at a new life by adopting them into loving homes.

United Way gifts have helped animals like Britta. Britta, a three-month-old puppy, was hit by a car last February and suffered head trauma and a broken leg. She was rushed to the OHS for surgery. After

recovering in shelter, Britta spent a couple months with OHS foster volunteers who helped the pup finish her healing before going to a new forever home.

The OHS and the animals in our care do not receive grants or funding from the United Way, unless animal supporters like you, direct your gift to us. It’s EASY! Write in “Ottawa Humane Society” in the charity section and fill in our charitable number: 123264715 RR0001.

Meet Cincinnati (A157880), a two-year-old charcoal rabbit who loves to run and explore. He’s been at the Ottawa Humane Society since July 2 and is ready to find a forever home.

Cincinnati is a curious boy who wants space to play and do rabbit things. He has an independent spirit and would love to find a home where his family respects his desire for freedom.

He’d make a wonderful companion for just about anyone but would like some time to get to know his new family before really warming up and becoming his true rabbit self.

Many Ways to Help the Animals at the Ottawa Humane Society

CINCINNATI ID# A157880

To meet Cincinnati and all the other animals available for adoption, visit the Ottawa Humane Society at 245 West Hunt Club Rd. or view the animals online at ottawahumane.ca.

HobbesThis is our cockatiel, Hobbes. He is three years old. We adopted him when he was one. He loves to travel around on our shoulder throughout the day and will climb over to our hand when we sit down and nudge it with his head. This is his way of telling us he wants us to pet him. He loves to have his head and neck rubbed. He often serenades us with is own unique songs but he knows the theme song from the movie “Bridge on the River Kwai”. He is a very affectionate bird and we love having him as a part of our family.

News – Artist Katerina Mer-tikas makes it her mission to give back to the community.

Little did she know one day the community would give back to her.

The south Ottawa resident was presented with a United Way Community Builder Award at the South-East Otta-wa Community Health Centre on Bank Street on Sept. 19.

That day, Mertikas unveiled three of her large canvas paint-ings created to hang in the health centre.

The three oil paintings high-light the diversity and cultural mosaic of Ottawa, with chil-dren as the main focus. Merti-kas said her paintings welcome a sense of openness and com-munity.

“It’s a wonderful opportuni-ty for an artist,” she said about having her work on display at the health centre.

“I am so very pleased to be able to share my happy, cheer-ful art in public spaces where many will get a chance to see the way I depict a busy, naive, expressionistic style of art.”

During the unveiling, Mi-chael O’Byrne, co-chair of vol-unteer recognition on United Way Ottawa’s campaign cabi-net, presented Mertikas with the award, which recognizes individuals who give back to their community through vol-unteering or by contributing in some way.

Mertikas said having the op-portunity to share her art with others and give back simulta-neously is a dream come true.

“I am an immigrant myself,” she said. “The many services that United Way provides to newcomers – the community centre helps in this way, also,” she said.

“I just pursued my dream to paint, to be a useful member of our society and community, and would gladly help out so many organizations over the years without ever thinking of this kind of recognition. I thought it enough that people enjoyed my art.”

HALLMARK ARTIST

Mertikas and her colourful artwork are receiving recogni-tion on a different scale.

Earlier this year, Hallmark and UNICEF chose her paint-ings for use as cover art on greeting cards, making her the fi rst Ottawa artist to have been selected by both companies.

This is the 18th consecutive year Mertikas’ art has been se-lected to appear on a UNICEF

card. Proceeds from the sale of the UNICEF cards go towards helping children around the world receive the basic neces-sities of life.

“It’s something I believe in seeing,” she said. “All of my art is full of children and joy and I would only like to see other children benefi t from some re-lief as well.”

As an artist, Mertikas wishes to see many places benefi t and share in her art through dona-tions, fundraisers, card sales, and auctions.

“I thought was just a plus for me to show my work,” she

said.“I felt super proud, not for

me, but for my daughters and especially my grandkids who were there clapping for me – which is usually the other way around. I hope to instill in my family the drive to help in any small way we can in life.”

“I know that good comes from doing good somewhere down the road. An amazing recognition for me. I am hon-oured.”
