“I got the idea from going to Vanleek Hill last year,” she said. “I thought, ‘Why can’t we show off our heritage homes?’”
The Nov. 29 event will put seven heritage homes, two churches, the Maple Hall - which is more than 100 years old - and the Cumberland Heritage Village Museum on display.
The event purposely coincides with the lighting of the museum’s annual Vintage Village of Lights at dusk the same day.
One of the sites, the Wilson house, is a beauti-ful stone building near the museum which was home to Canada’s first female Senator, Cairine Wilson. It was built by her father-inlaw William Wilson in 1948, and was in the family until sold in 2013.
Another highlight will be the first stop on the tour, St. Andrew’s United Church, which features stained glass windows. It was built in 1879, and houses a special bell which will be rung through-out the day.
Also on the tour will be the Hutton House, home to Minnie Hutton in the early 1900s, which was
moved to a different location in the late 1950s. The end of the tour will be at the Cumberland
Heritage Village Museum. Parking will be avail-able at the museum, and a horse-drawn carriage will make trips between the museum and first stop on the tour throughout the day.
Tour tickets, which cost $20, include admis-sion to the museum. The museum is closed until 3 p.m., but tour participants will be able to visit the homes, then go to museum and explore before the lighting of the village at dark.
“It’s a full half-day event, where we think they get really good value,” Bruinsma said.
There will be lunch available for $8 through the Anglican Church Women at the Maple Hall.
The money from ticket sales will go towards the community association and the Orléans-Cum-berland Community Resource Centre, an orga-nization the community association often gives money to at Christmas.
Tickets for the event must be purchased in ad-vance, and are available at the Orléans-Cumber-land Community Resource Centre at 240 Cen-trum Blvd. or by calling Donna Nuttall at 613-833-2507.

News - Want to take your commu-nity advocacy to the next level? The city is currently recruiting people to sit on volunteer committees and boards.
The city’s fi ve citizen advisory groups are composed of members of the public who advise on issues fac-ing city council. There are also citi-zen member positions on city boards, where, alongside city councillors, volunteer members vote on recom-mendations to city council. Positions are also available on conservation authority boards, the built heritage subcommittee and the committee of adjustment.
More information about becoming
a board or committee member will be presented at a public information session on Thursday, Nov. 13 from 6 to 8 p.m. in the lobby of Mary Pitt Centre, 100 Constellation Cres.
Advisory committee members can claim expenses including childcare, mileage, parking and transit fares.
Board and committee members must be 18 years or older and cannot be employed by the City of Ottawa.
The deadline to apply is Thursday, Nov. 27 at 4:30 p.m. More informa-tion is available at ottawa.ca or by emailing [email protected].
Aside from the library board, which must be appointed 60 days af-ter council is sworn in Dec. 1, board and committee members will be ap-pointed by the end of February.
In 2012, city council slashed the number of citizen advisory groups at city hall from 15 to fi ve.
The move also shifted the built heritage advisory committee (OB-HAC) from an advisory group to a subcommittee of planning commit-
tee, mostly composed of councillors.At the time, less than half of the
work done by the advisory commit-tees resulted in direct recommenda-tions or advice to city council or its standing committees and restructur-ing the advisory groups was aimed at making them more effective.
The move was also aimed at sav-ing $190,000 annually.
After the change, advisory com-mittees were to hold offi cial meet-ings four times a year, however, ad-ditional informal meetings can be scheduled.
Positions are available on the fol-lowing committees and boards:
• Transit commission (four mem-bers)
• Board of health (fi ve members)• Library board (fi ve to eight
members)• Police services Board (one mem-
ber)• Built heritage subcommittee
(three members)
• Committee of adjustment (15 members)
• Licence and property standards committee (fi ve members)
• Rideau Valley Conservation Au-thority (four members)
• South Nation Conservation (two members)
• Mississippi Valley Conservation Authority (three members)
• Mohr’s Landing/Quyon Port Au-thority (one member)
• Shaw Centre (formerly the Ot-
tawa Convention Centre) board of directors (two members)
• Accessibility advisory commit-tee (nine to 15 members)
• Arts, heritage and culture adviso-ry committee (nine to 11 members)
• Community services advisory committee (nine to 11 members)
• Environmental stewardship ad-visory committee (nine to 11 mem-bers)
• French language services adviso-ry committee (seven to 11 members)
Apply to join city boards, committeesRecruitment now open for 17 municipal advisory or decision-making bodies

SAFETY BEFORE BEAUTY
How often are Personal Service Settings (PSS) inspected?Public Health Inspectors conduct at least one inspection per year of all known PSS locations to ensure they meet all infection prevention and control practices, as outlined in the provincial PSS standards. Inspections are also done in response to complaints.
Where can I find the latest inspection results of a PSS?In order to ensure that the public is well-informed with the most up-to-date inspection reports, residents can now visit ottawa.ca/PSSinspections to view the inspection history of any PSS location. This website is mobile friendly helping residents make informed decisions no matter what device they are using.
Why can’t I find an inspection report for the PSS location I am searching on ottawa.ca/PSSinspections?This website was launched in the past year and only recent inspection results are available. We are currently working on uploading past inspection reports. If you cannot find a PSS location or an inspection result for a known PSS, or if you want to submit a complaint or report an infraction, please call 613-580-6744 (TTY: 613-580-9656) Monday to Friday, 8:30 am to 4:30 pm to speak to a Public Health Inspector.
OPH has developed five service-specific fact sheets that are available on ottawa.ca/PersonalServiceSettings to help you know what to look for prior to choosing a service provider, and how to report any concerns you may have.
Remember, Safety Before Beauty!
“Personal Services Settings” (PSS) include businesses that most of us frequent on a regular basis and include a wide-range of services such as piercings, haircuts, manicures, pedicures, electrolysis, tattooing and bodymodification. Ottawa Public Health (OPH) works to inform and protect the public at these establishments by offering operator training and public education, and conducting regular health inspections of premises. Recently, OPH surveyed the public to see how often Ottawa residents access the various types of services.
To no one’s surprise, many respondents indicated that they had been to a hair salon and had received a manicure or pedicure. After all, who doesn’t like getting their hair and nails done! More surprising, however, was the high number of people who indicated that they have had at least one piercing or tattoo, and many had purchased more invasive, non-traditional personal service procedures such as body modification, tongue splitting and branding.

There is renewed talk of mak-ing Nov. 11, Remembrance Day, a national holiday.
An NDP private mem-ber’s bill has received government support and therefore has a good chance of passing. On the surface, that seems like a good idea. Remem-brance Day is an important occasion, especially important this year in the light of tragic events. Making it a national statutory holiday would give recognition to this.
But there is more to it. Creating a new national holiday would have other consequences that we might not like so much.
In six provinces, Remembrance Day already is a holiday; in four provinces, including Ontario and Quebec, it is not. Furthermore,
regulations regarding school and store openings vary widely. In our city, under municipal law, most retail establishments must remain closed until 12:30 p.m.
One thing that does is make Re-membrance Day a day unlike other holidays. Although federal public servants have the day off, others don’t. That means people who work downtown will be close to Remem-brance Day ceremonies and will attend them. Schools are open. That
means Remembrance Day ceremo-nies for students. Remembrance Day is special the way it is.
What if it became a national holi-day? Well, a lot depends on whether the stores are open. We know what happens here. Many people who have the day off fl ock to the shopping centres at 12:30. That seems to have little to do with remembering. Stores are closed all day in some provinces, open all day in others. In other parts of Ontario, stores are open all day.
So in some ways, making Remem-brance Day a national holiday would change little for many people. Lots of people already have the day off; many people can shop all they want, all day. Some of them might like the idea of shifting Remembrance Day to create a long weekend.
That’s distasteful and unlikely. But what we surely want to avoid in all this is making Remembrance Day a day off like any other. No matter how it is legally defi ned, Remembrance Day will continue to have a deep meaning for many Canadians.
But the number of those Cana-dians could gradually diminish if efforts are not made to keep the day unique. One thing that makes the day special is that people pause in their duties at 11 a.m. for a moment of silence. Is that less likely to happen if they have no duties? Obviously, it cannot happen in schools if there is no school.
The last point is important. It is through Remembrance Day obser-vances in the school that the message of Remembrance Day is passed on and has a hope of enduring.
The bill itself is generally worded. It just makes Remembrance Day a legal holiday across Canada. The
specifi cs of how that holiday is observed are up to the provinces and municipalities.
So it is up to them to ensure that the essence of Remembrance Day is not lost. Ottawa, the city, seems to have the right idea.
A move to make Remembrance Day a statutory national holiday starting in 2015 is receiving support from all federal parties.
It’s been a long time coming. The national day of mourning is already observed as a holiday by six provinces and three territories. But Ontario, Quebec, Nova Scotia and Manitoba, comprising the majority of Canada’s population, do not recognize Remembrance Day as a statutory holiday.
Federal employees already observe the holiday, and private businesses always have the option to give their employees the day off on Nov. 11. Many choose to remain closed through 11 a.m.
In Ontario, Remembrance Day was removed as a general holiday in 1982 by the Progressive Conser-vatives under Ontario premier Bill Davis.
The bill to make Remembrance Day a national statutory holiday, bill C-597, introduced by New Democrat MP Dan Harris, has passed second read-ing, receiving support from all federal parties. If the bill passes, it’s up to each of the provinces to pass
corresponding legislation.The legislation is certainly timely, as this year
marks the 100th anniversary of the start of the First World War. Remembrance Day is also at the fore-front in people’s mind following the deaths of two Canadian soldiers, the results of attacks in Quebec and Ottawa last month.
The arguments against creating another statutory holiday are largely economic, stemming from the loss of productivity and therefore the sacrifi ce of profi ts. Compared to the sacrifi ce made by soldiers in past confl icts and wars – the ultimate sacrifi ce – this argument falls fl at on its face.
Sacrifi ce is a concept fresh on the minds of Ontar-ians who watched the funeral procession of Cpl. Na-than Cirillo, who was shot and killed by a gunman while standing guard at the National War Memorial on Oct. 22, travel from Ottawa to Hamilton.
If it does become a statutory holiday, it’s up to Ontarians to take advantage of the day to contem-plate the extent of their freedoms and their ultimate price.

My kids know that Friday afternoons may mean a couple of bucks in their
pockets.They come home from school
demanding screen time – which they aren’t allowed to have, gener-ally, during the week – and their two bucks.
In an ad hoc fashion, I mentally tick off the ways in which they’ve helped out with chores, completed homework and done their music practice during the week to the best of my memory. Then I an-nounce any outstanding activities required of them before they get their allowance.
Sometimes, if they do extra things, like raking leaves or taking out the garbage, I’ll give them a bonus.
It turns out my ad hoc approach may not be the best.
Any parent knows, consistency is key when it comes to good parenting. And it turns out sys-tematically training kids about the value of money may make a big difference in how they handle their finances in adulthood.
Giving them an allowance just for the sake of having money in their pockets, for example, may be a bad idea.
“Literally, without exception, studies have found that giving a child an allowance, particularly a regular, unconditional allowance that the child can depend upon, is a terrible idea,” writes financial scholar Lewis Mandell in a 2013 article.
“It could be considered a form of child abuse.”
That may seem a bit harsh, but Mandell’s study of financial literature suggests that an uncondi-tional allowance is associated with “diminished financial literacy,” and miscomprehension of the value of that money carries into adulthood.
There are a number of ways around this. Some scholars argue against tying allowance to chores. Others suggest distinguishing between regular chores required of any household member, and chores-for-money that will get them their weekly paycheque.
Tying the amount to your child’s age can be effective. Kids require more money as they get older. Per-haps 50 cents per week per year of age, or a dollar, depending on your family’s budget.
But more important than dol-ing out the cash is training kids
about spending versus saving. One system that has worked well for us is giving the boys three mason jars each – one for spending, one for short-term saving (like Trash Packs and Pokemon), and one for long-term saving (like a pet gold-fish or a new bike).
It’s important to us that our children understand that having money means prioritizing. We’re open with the kids about our own spending – why we’re cutting back on groceries to boost mom’s pension savings. And while I don’t
like to say outright, “we can’t afford that,” I am clear that some families have more than others or they value certain things more than we do. The message I’m hoping to impart is that being respon-sible with money is about making choices, constantly.
Sometimes, the best way to teach is through experience.
When he was seven, my eldest son decided it was time to upgrade his bike. He wanted a bigger frame, gears and suspension. He got a lump sum of money from a relative for his birthday. When added to his savings jar, he had $50, the most he’s ever seen at once. “Is that enough for a brand new bike?” he asked, excitedly.
We told him it wasn’t. But if he checked carefully through the clas-sified ads, maybe he could find a
second-hand bike for that amount. He spent several days searching and found the “bike of his dreams” for $75 online. We helped him call the seller and offer him $50 for the bike. The seller accepted. My son learned the art of savings, re-search, patience and the potential for negotiation.
This year, the big temptation is
a betta fish. They only cost $6.99 each at the pet store. “Can I get one? I have $7.” Aah, but that little fish needs a bowl and food and a fish environment. We worked out that the total cost for a year of care, plus his initial investment, would be close to $40. The result? He’s saving his pennies and price-comparing fish bowls.
Teaching kids about money isn’t easy. Heck, I know I’m still learning new things about finances every day.
But if we want our children to have the opportunity to be finan-cially comfortable in future, it’s time to put financial literacy on the curriculum both at home and at school.

It’s important to us that our children understand that having money means prioritizing. We’re open with the kids about our own spending – why we’re cutting back on groceries to boost mom’s pension savings.

News - Only two parents showed up to a Nov. 5 meeting at Trillium Elementary School to discuss the proposed public school board boundary changes in Orléans.
The proposed new boundary will primarily change where stu-dents in new development areas near Cardinal Creek Village and Mer Bleue attend school.
Ian Baxter, the board’s as-sistant manager of planning, said the process will determine where students should be ac-commodated in advance of the developments being built and completed in Cardinal Creek Village and Mer Bleue.
He said changes won’t affect current students who remain at their current addresses.
The board is planning for new students to move into the Cardinal Creek area as early as fall 2015.
Currently, that area direct students to Heritage Public School in Navan.
Board staff have proposed that students living in the devel-
opment north of Montreal Road be directed to Orléans Wood El-ementary School until Grade 3, and then to Terry Fox Elemen-tary School for Grades 4 to 8. Students in the middle French immersion program would be directed to Convent Glen El-ementary School for Grades 4 and 5, and Henry Larsen El-ementary School for Grades 6 to 8.
The future development south of Montreal Road would direct students to Falling-brook Community Elementary School, and Trillium Elemen-tary School for middle French
immersion students. There are less than five stu-
dents in the current Cardinal Creek Village area who already attend Heritage Public School. While the new boundary chang-es are proposed for the 2015-16 school year, it’s proposed those students remain at Heritage.
MER BLEUE
In the Mer Bleue expansion area, staff proposed direct-ing students to Convent Glen Elementary School for kin-dergarten to Grade 5 English studies and grade-4 to-5 middle French immersion and Henry Larsen Elementary School for kindergarten to Grade 8 early French immersion and grade-6 to-8 English studies and middle French immersion.
While high school students in that area would currently be directed to Sir Wilfrid Laurier Secondary School, staff pro-posed re-directing high school students to Cairine Wilson Secondary School for grade-9 to-12.
The board report stated there are less than five students in the
expansion area who are current-ly directed to Dunning-Foubert Elementary School, who board staff would like to see remain there and then feed into Sir Wil-frid Laurier.
Much of the Mer Bleue ex-pansion area development is still in the design phase.
The new Avalon II school, scheduled to open in Septem-ber 2016, wasn’t a viable option because it’s expected that both Avalon schools will “be fully utilized into the near future.”
The full board reports and maps of boundary areas can be found online at www.ocdsb.ca under the consultation tab.
ALTERNATIVE
Under the boundary revision proposal, the boundary for al-ternative schools would change. While students in Orléans can currently attend Riverview Al-ternative School, most would not receive transportation to and from the Alta Vista school.
The proposed boundary change would include Orléans. The school has “significant ex-isting instructional space,” ac-cording to the board’s report.
Including those areas in the boundary would mean students attending the alternative schools would be able to receive trans-
portation. New public board trustee
Keith Penny attended the meet-ing. He said low turnout parent was likely because the changes were long range with future de-velopment.
Anyone with comments is able to submit them to the Ot-tawa-Carleton District School Board by emailing [email protected].
Board staff will prepare a recommendation report to pres-ent to the school board at the Dec. 9 committee meeting, and the final decision will be made at the Dec. 16 public school board meeting.

Community - Members of the St. Peter show choir, Tremble Threat, have had chances to perform all across the city, but they’ll be on their biggest stage yet when the high school singers join the 200-person choir at Disney World on Nov. 29.
The 29 show choir members are participating in the candlelight pro-cessional at Epcot, a Disney World park in Orlando, Fla.
The processional is a 14-song, three language performance that tells the story of Jesus’s birth which is performed from the end of No-vember until Dec. 30. A variety of community, school and church choirs were accepted after spring auditions to perform, each several times.
St. Peter will perform twice, with both shows narrated by Jodi Benson - the voice of Disney’s The Little Mermaid. Other celebrity narrators include actors Neil Patrick Harris and Whoopi Goldberg.
It’s been a challenge for the grades 9 through 12 students to learn the songs, especially because Disney has particular versions or differences in the way each song is supposed to be performed.
Grade 11 student Germaine Konji said the song Hallelujah is the big-gest challenge of the set.
“(It’s hard because of) its length,” she said. “It goes on for a long time, and it’s a lot of remembering small differences in verses.”
She said the group has been re-hearsing frequently, both after school and on their lunch breaks.
Many of the show choir students are also involved in the school’s
musical theatre program and after school club.
It will be a brand new experience for the Ottawa singers, who have never participated in this program before. St. Peter is the only Cana-dian group to be selected to perform this year.
Disney World has several side stages throughout their parks that they often allow groups to perform on, said choir director Bernie Leger, but groups have to be selected af-ter an audition process to perform alongside the Disney orchestra in the Candlelight Processional.
“This will be actually performing out in the real world,” said Grade 12 student Cole Harrison-Priddle, who said it still feels like a dream. “Last night I was thinking how it’s not real. But When I set foot on the plane, I’m going to Disney to per-form. Everything will be real.”
The students will also visit all the Disney parks, view several shows, and participate in a three-hour workshop where they will record a Disney song.
FUNDRAISING CONCERT
The parents of the students took the lead on fundraising for the trip, Leger said. Various fundraisers have already taken place, and one more is planned for Nov. 22 at 7 p.m. before the show choir leaves.
They will put on a performance, which will include many of the songs they will perform at Disney World.
The concert will be at Divine In-fant Parish at 6658 Bilberry Dr. in Orléans. Tickets are for sale in ad-vance, but not at the door. Tickets cost $10 from Divine Infant Parish or the St. Peter High School office.

Precautions to take when the COLD Arrives and your Furnace is Running Non-Stop!!With the arrival of cold weather comes a requirement to keep your home’s furnace running on a regular basis. However, for the health of your home’s inhabit-ants, precautions should be taken concerning the efficiency and cleanliness of your furnace, as well as the cleanliness of your home’s air ducts.
Health Canada and the United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) have determined that indoor air quality can be six to 10 times more polluted than outdoor air in some industrial-ized cities. Home air contami-nants can come from a number of sources, and their effects on those in your home can be seri-ous – and sometimes even fatal. Maintaining the safety of your home’s air begins with the fur-nace and the air ducts.
It’s vitally important that your furnace is clean and operating at peak efficiency before it’s re-quired to run full-time through the fall, winter, and into spring. If your furnace isn’t running at its best, it can be deadly. Practically every gas furnace creates carbon monoxide, which is a natural by-product of incomplete combus-
tion. Even though a clean and well-running furnace will pro-duce only minimal amounts of this deadly, invisible gas, which is vented away, an inefficient fur-nace can produce lethal amounts of carbon monoxide. Therefore, have your furnace cleaned and inspected well before the cold season arrives. A clean and effi-cient furnace is also eco-friendly, and can even save you money when it runs properly!
It’s estimated that in the average six-room house, about 40 pounds of dust is accumulated every year just from everyday living. Ordinary occupation of a home creates all sorts of contaminants and pollutants that find their way into your home’s air ducts. Dust, dander, chemicals, microbes all collect in your home’s “respira-tory system.”
Those air ducts should be cleaned on a regular basis, but with the ar-rival of the winter season, homes are sealed tight and those exist-ing toxins and pollutants are cir-culated over and over. Have your home’s air ducts professionally cleaned, especially before the ar-rival of the chilly season
Clogged dryer vents pose yet one more serious hazard and health risk in the home. On one hand, congested dryer vents are a lead-ing cause of fires, but that’s not all. Those clogged vents prevent the efficient ventilation of car-bon monoxide. And, when dryer vents are clogged, they create the ideal nesting ground for moulds, which pose their own health risks. If you haven’t had your dryer vents cleaned, be sure to address it before the winter season comes knocking on your door.
In the Ottawa region, Dr. Clean Air are a professional cleaning specialist. The company provides an exten-sive number of cleaning services and packages ,that will keep your home thoroughly clean through-out the year, including furnaces, air ducts, and dryer vents.

My sister Audrey, was the one I always went to if I needed the
answer to a question. Mother once said she was “wiser beyond her years,” whatever that meant.
All I knew was that she could pretty well satisfy my curiosity on just about any subject.
And so it was that one day, after spending a glorious afternoon at my little friend Joyce Francis’s house, I asked Audrey why we never used our parlour. Everything we did, from eating, to playing games, to just sitting around doing our own thing, we were always in the kitchen.
“First of all” she said, with-out giving it more than a few seconds thought, “the parlour is too small to hold all of us, there is no big table there, and there is only one horse-hair-filled settee and a couple twig chairs to sit on, and besides we close it up when winter comes
because there is no way to get heat into the room”.
She paused for only a few seconds, “and besides, our kitchen is the nicest room in the house, and certainly the warmest.”
Well, that all made perfect sense to me, and I began to see our kitchen in a different light. I looked around and for the first time, really saw the room for what it was.
This was where our food was prepared for our meals. Mother’s bake table was beside the back door, close to a shelf Father had put up, covered securely with oilcloth where dishes were washed. There was no sink in the kitchen, but a small pump had been anchored to this shelf, which only rarely produced a dribble. This made us go out to the pump in the yard whenever we needed water, which seemed to me to merit a continuous trip with the granite pail, keeping the reservoir full, bath water on Saturday nights, wash water
for Mondays. Two small pails were continually replenished for hand-washing on the bench by the back door, and one on the oil-cloth covered shelf for drinking and cooking.
On the back wall beside the summer kitchen door was the wood box, close to the Findlay Oval. Standing behind the cook stove was a three-sided tin affair which was there to supposedly keep the heat of the stove from setting the wall on fire, and burning the place to the ground.
And there was the door leading to Mother and Father’s small bedroom, a room which Mother once said was smaller than the broom closet she had in New York.
The kitchen took a corner then, and there sat the big oak Barnett Ice Box, kitty-corner,
which I thought gave the kitchen a nice touch. And then a long wall, broken up by a window looking out onto the grape arbour, held the old pine table, long enough to sit a dozen people. More chairs than we needed, sat around the rest of the table.
This was the table that had more useful purposes than any other piece of furniture in the old log house. We ate at it, neighbours played euchre on it at the Saturday night house parties, we five children sat at it at night with two coal oil lamps, one at each end.
Mother wrote in her diaries there, Audrey and I worked our way through Eaton’s catalogue, and my three brothers carved, played cards, whittled, and yes, fought like tigers.
A flat pine door, which was never opened, led to the back room upstairs, whose only purpose it seemed to me was to offer me a smooth surface to draw on with stubs of chalk, and with orders that it had
to be washed off when I was finished.
Another flat wall held Mother’s bake cupboard, an in-vention I thought was right up there with electric lights, and a real bathtub. This cupboard had a place for flour which seemed to be suspended from somewhere inside, and a door affair which could be rolled up like a wad of paper, vanishing into goodness knows where when she needed something out of the doors.
Topping off the whole elegance of this cupboard was a white enameled surface that could be pulled out to make the work surface larger.
Like every other kitchen I ever went into in Northcote, there was a creton couch, close to the stove. It served as a bed for my sister Audrey and me when we had company and had to give up ours. It was too narrow to sleep side-by-side, so we had to sleep end-to-end, which didn’t please either of us one bit. It would have made
sense for Father to have his noon nap on the couch, but he preferred an old rocking chair, that no one sat in but him.
Wainscoting circled the kitchen, and the only other window looked out onto the side yard with a ledge wide enough where Mother could put her geranium pots when she brought them indoors in the fall.
Braided mats of every shape and size covered the kitchen floor in the winter.
My sister Audrey was right -- again. The kitchen was the nicest room in that old log house. And certainly the room that got the most use. It was a place for family fun, a place to fill our bellies, a room where neighbours were greeted, and where the big granite tea pot was always on the back of the stove. There was a coziness there, even on the coldest night, and at a very young age, I knew that the warmth I felt in that old kitchen didn’t come from the Findlay Oval alone.
Audrey shed new light on value, beauty of family kitchenMARY COOKMemories

News – The only thing the dogs knew on Nov. 5 was they had a bonus friend to play fetch with at the Ottawa Humane Society.
Gov. Gen. David Johnston visited the humane society to launch Dare2Give, a campaign to encourage Canadians to donate, whether it’s time or money, using the Ottawa Humane Society vol-unteers, who are 650 strong, as an ex-ample.
Volunteer dog walkers and volun-teers who take their dogs to visit with the ill and seniors, brought their pooch-es along for the launch and a chance to play outside with Queen Elizabeth II’s Canadian representative.
“The idea is to establish a Canada where giving is something we naturally do,” Johnston said. “We’re a smart and caring nation.”
He encouraged those who already volunteer, such as the Humane Soci-ety volunteers he spoke with, to dare a friend or family member to donate to a cause of their choice.
“You can’t event put a value on that,” Johnston said of the Ottawa volunteers. “Six hundred and fi fty (volunteers) is priceless.”
Those who register their dares will be able register online for a chance to win a donation to a charity of their choice.
Johnston spoke to volunteers as well as student volunteers from Algon-quin College, who joined in on the an-nouncement and doggie play date.
Tim Bell, a retired Carleton Uni-versity professor who live in Carleton Place, said he enjoys volunteer work with his fi ve-year-old golden retriever, Indy. They were in attendance for the campaign launch.
“This is a perfect way to give back to the community,” he said. “I enjoy it, and Indy does too.”
Johnston has his own dog, an eight-
month-old Chesapeake Bay Retriever named Rosie. Between his fi ve daugh-ters, the family also has four adopted dogs, with at least one from the Ottawa Humane Society, he said.
“The joy of having a dog is some-thing unique,” he said. “We just saw fi ve or six dogs who are pretty special.”
Humane Society executive director Bruce Roney thanked Johnston for us-ing the Ottawa Humane Society as an example, and said the shelter wouldn’t be able to run without their volunteers.

News - The University of Ottawa will now be sharing research and education tools to col-leagues with France thanks to an announce-ment on Nov. 3 outlining a partnership with the University of Claude Bernard Lyon 1 and the Hospices Civils de Lyon
Representatives from each institution signed a letter of intent at Rideau Hall during a visit by the president of France, Francois Hol-lande. The letter indicates the institutions will look to share life sciences, health sciences and medicine research and education tools.
“We look forward to increased collabora-tion between France and Canada in both edu-cation and research,” said Allan Rock, presi-dent of the University of Ottawa. “We have already developed close ties with institutions in Lyon and have agreements in place in a number of fields, including political science, law and catalysis science. We’re happy to be able to add the field of health, an important focus of research for both our countries.”
The University of Ottawa has more than 50,000 students, faculty and staff who work and study in both French and English.
The document signed on Nov. 3 acknowl-edges the institutions intend to develop and promote internships and short-term exchang-es for medical students, exchange best prac-tices related to creating medical education programs, develop stronger ties for conduct-ing research in the biomedical sciences and to develop new joint research programs as well as develop joint university programs through the use of innovative teaching technologies.
Over the years, the Ottawa-based university has signed agreements with a number of in-stitutions both nationally and internationally, with collaborations between research and re-searchers.
Some examples of University of Ottawa re-search and academic partnerships are:
• Shanghai Jiao Tong University School of Medicine (Shanghai): The University of Ottawa’s Faculty of Medicine and SJTUSM signed an agreement to establish a joint medical school -- the first of its kind in North America and China.
• Max Planck Institute for the Science of Light (Erlangen, Germany): A formal research partnership with the University of Ottawa’s Centre for Research in Photonics to further research in photonics, non-linear optics and quantum optics.
• École normale supérieure (Lyon, France), Université de Lyon and the Centre national de la recherche scientifique (Paris, France): the University of Ottawa�s Centre for Catalysis Research has created an international associ-ated laboratory in partnership with these three French institutions to explore how catalysis, which accelerates chemical reactions, can be used to harness renewable sources of energy and produce clean chemicals.
• École Nationale d�Ingénieurs de Metz
(Metz, France): Telfer School of Management and ÉNIM have partnered to offer Telfer’s MBA program in French to European engi-neers.
• Dalian Institute of Chemical Physics and Shanghai Institute of Materia Medica (China): International joint laboratories were founded at each of these Chinese institutes with the University of Ottawa’s Institute of Systems Biology to boost proteomics research, the large-scale study of proteins.
• Sao Paulo Research Foundation (Bra-zil): This foundation promotes collabora-tive research projects between researchers in the State of Sao Paulo and members of the CALDO Consortium, a group of Canadian universities which includes the University of Ottawa.
According to the University of Ottawa, the University of Claude Bernard Lyon 1 and the Hospices Civils de Lyon and Ottawa will ad-dress the specifics of this new agreement in the coming months.
SUBMITTeD
Allan Rock, president of the University of Ottawa, and Denis Bourgeois, vice presi-dent of a university in France called Université Claude Bernard Lyon 1 set the ground work for the two institutions to share resources and promote short-term exchanges for students by signing a letter of intent at Rideau Hall on Nov. 3.

Weldon Cochrane was an Ottawa chartered accountant and partner with the accounting firm of Coopers and Lybrand (now PriceWaterhouseCoopers) and was also the Treasurer on the CHEO Foundation Board. Mr. Cochrane had an appreciation for the importance of leaving a legacy and understood how to make an impact when he decided to made a gift in his Will to CHEO. He left the residual of his estate with instructions for it to be endowed; meaning that the capital would be preserved in perpetuity and the annual interest would be used to fund the important work at CHEO. When Mr. Cochrane died in 1985 the CHEO Foundation received $540,000 from his estate and established the Weldon Cochrane Endowment Fund as directed in his Will. Much has happened and changed at CHEO since his death and in that time his legacy gift has grown to $4.6 million. Moving forward 80 percent of the interest generated from this fund will be invested in medical equipment, research and hospital programs at CHEO. The remaining 20 percent will be reinvested to allow the fund to continue to grow. In 25 years $6.4 million (80%) will go to the hospital and $1.6 million (20%) will be reinvested bringing the total value of the fund to $6.2 million. In 50 years $15 million (80%) will go to the hospital and $3.8 million (20%) will be reinvested bringing the total value of the fund to $8.4 million. In 100 years $42.2 million (80%) will go to the hospital and $10.6 million (20%) will be reinvested bringing the total value of the fund to $15.2 million.
His legacy lives on and continues to make a difference in the lives of young patients at CHEO today, and for future generations.
As CHEO marks its 40th anniversary this year, we look back and honour not only those in our community who made our local children’s hospital a reality, but also donors like Mr. Cochrane who made children a priority. Why not honour what is most important to you during your lifetime by considering a gift in Will to CHEO. Our children, youth and families deserve to always have excellent health care, to benefit from lifesaving research and be provided with the support programs to live happy and healthy lives now and forever.
WHAT Is FOrEvEr CHEO?Forever CHEO is a way to ensure that CHEO will always be here to provide excellent care, life-saving research and invaluable support to children and their families every day by making a gift from your estate.
When you leave a gift in your Will to CHEO you have the option of designating it to address immediate needs within the Hospital, the research Institute or the Forever CHEO Endowment Fund. This fund will preserve the full amount of your gift and disperse the interest to CHEO annually. since the fund will live on in perpetuity, so will your gift to future generations of children at CHEO. This is a way to leave a permanent and meaningful mark on your community.

Main Street Renewal Project
Thursday, November 20, 20146 p.m. to 9 p.m.
Saint Paul University – Normandin RoomLaframboise Hall, Second Floor
249 Main Street, Ottawa
The City of Ottawa is in the process of completing the detailed designs for the renewal of Main Street and portions of Rideau River Drive. The Lees Avenue portion of the overall project went under construction in summer 2014.
The recommended design concept was approved by City Council on July 17, 2013. The City has planned this project under Schedule C of the Municipal Class Environmental Assessment (EA) process. The EA process was finalized in September 2013 after the completion of an Environmental Study Report. On this basis, Main Street will be renewed as a “complete street” featuring cycle tracks, wider sidewalks, and space for streetscaping. To accomplish this, vehicle lane reductions will be implemented in some locations. The street design varies along its approximately 2-km length. Construction of the project is planned to commence in 2015. Early utility reconstruction works may go under construction in fall 2014.
At this time, all interested persons are invited to attend a Public Open House. The purpose of this Open House is to present the draft detailed designs including road geometry, streetscaping details, public art selection, utility works, construction timing, and preliminary traffic management plans during construction. City staff and their consultants will be available to discuss the project, receive your input, and answer any questions. Following the Open House, input and comments will be accepted until December 4, 2014.
For further information or to provide comments, please contact the City’s project manager or the consulting team project manager at the addresses below:

Introduction of Minimum Density Index Requirements Wednesday, November 19, 2014
Honeywell Room, 2nd FloorOttawa City Hall
110 Laurier Avenue West Presentation at 5 p.m., followed by Questions and Answers session
The City is proposing a new tool called the Density Index as part of its Zoning By-law 2008-250.
This new feature is being introduced to require that specific areas of the city be subject to minimum densities, as indicated in the 2013 Official Plan, the document that guides land use and manages growth in the City of Ottawa. By attending this meeting, residents may learn more about the tool, how it will be used and ask questions of City Staff.
The density index tool is a new concept that, if approved by City Council, will regulate the lowest acceptable level of development permitted at key locations. Density refers to how much development there is on a lot, regardless of the shape or height of a building.
What are Ottawa’s key locations?

News - An organization aimed at helping people with disabilities will open its doors at the Bronson centre in the new year.
Christy’s Integration, Skills, Day Programs and Educational Programs for Persons with Dis-abilities is still getting the room at the centre organized, but once operational, the organi-zation will offer programming in employment, social skills, mentorship and recreation for people age 10 to 70 at the Bronson Centre.
Founded by Christina Ran-ieri, the organization began by offer a summer day camp at the Steve MacLean Public School in Riverside South. With that success behind them, Ranieri said it was time to set up an
offi cial space for the weekly program.
“The room will offer a Mon-day night social night,” Ranieri said. “It will link the younger group members with the older ones and give them the skills needed to be on their own. These families are lost, or stuck on waiting lists. This organiza-tion is meeting a need in this city.”
Ranieri said it’s important to offer programming which will ease both parents’ minds as well as the individual with the disability.
“We want families to know they don’t have to worry and that it’s not all on them,” she said.
Ranieri obtained a degree in sociology from Carleton University and although she said she has had struggles with her own learning disability, the
reason why she believes creat-ing this organization is so im-portant is to let people know that with the right services they can succeed and achieve their goals.
“I am looking to create more services for families so they can reach their potential,” Ra-nieri said.
It has taken her a long time to get from the idea stage to ac-tually having doors to open and a room to offer programming.
“It took us fi ve years to get here because we wanted to fi nd the best plan,” she said.
The grand opening of the space is set to take place on Jan. 5, but until then Ranieri and her director of operations Curtis Bulatovich are busy registering individuals, hosting events and participating in programming fairs such as the recent Ottawa Transition Forum’s fair to pro-
mote the organization and gain more interested applicants.
The two are currently spend-ing the time leading up to the opening looking for more funding possibilities to better accommodate the numbers of interested participants.
“So far we have eight people signed up, our goal is 10,” Ra-nieri said.
At the moment most of the funding needed to run the pro-grams is being raised locally, through a initiative available at cisdep.org.
The two have also partnered with GradUit Network, who is sponsoring CISDEP through an online store, shop.graduit-network.com, over the next 90 days.
“We have no plans of turn-ing anyone away,” Ranieri said. “We want to accommodate as many people as possible.”

News - The makerspace at the Centrepointe library branch will live on.
The mini fabrication learning centre and facil-ity was set up in April as a pilot project with $58,000 in funding from the United States embassy’s American Corners program. The pilot was set to run until the end of the year, but the Ottawa Public Library has decided the idea is so successful, it will fi nd a way to ensure the service continues.
The makerspace was the fi rst of its kind in Ottawa’s library system and follows
a trend of libraries evolving to include hands-on learning centres and high-tech equip-ment.
ArtEngine, a collective of local artists and technol-ogy affi ciandos, also offers a makerspace.
“People appreciate our space,” said Ana Basile, the library manager in charge of the makerspace. “At fi rst, the objects were ornamen-tal. Now, people are making functional objects.”
Some of the things being produced are artworks or one-off projects, while oth-ers are prototypes for prod-ucts people are developing, Basile said.
One person even produced
a full-sized, functional violin using the 3D printer, Basile said.
By the end of September,
almost 8,000 people had vis-ited the space to check out the 3D printer, laser cutter, video and editing equipment
and more. The laser cutter has far and
away been the most popu-lar feature, with 267 designs
brought to life. Sixty-four people have used the 3D de-sign process – a number that may have been higher if the printer had been in service more often. Basile said the professional-grade printer was out of commission half the time due to repairs. Basile said she is looking into whether the library can trade in or purchase more entry-level 3D printers that don’t require specialized re-pairs that result in a lot of downtime. Since the equip-ment was purchased using the embassy grant, the only funding that’s needed to con-tinue having the makerspace available is staff time, Basile said.
The library will re-arrange resources to ensure there is staff to man the makerspace. Another grant application will be submitted to the American Corners program to seek addi-tional funding for equipment and programs, Basile said.

The makerspace at the Centrepointe library branch has been so successful, the Ottawa Public Library will fi nd a way to provide staff members so it can continue off ering the space beyond the end of the year, when the pilot project was set to end.

News - Another awesome event is set to take place in an effort to raise some money for the Boys and Girls Club of Ottawa.
The 22nd annual Awesome Auc-tion is planned for Nov. 21 at the Shaw Centre (formally the Ottawa Convention Centre).The event of-fers people a unique chance to raise money for the club by participating in a silent and live auction, a din-ner and an after-party. This year, the event will be country-themed and will welcome musical performances by Brea Lawrenson and the Cooper Brothers.
“This is a fantastic event,” said Colleen Mooney, the executive di-rector of the club. “It’s one of the club’s biggest fundraisers.”
According to Mooney, the club has 4,500 members across the city and that number continues to grow at the same time the club has had
some diffi culties receiving funding. Mooney added that more than 50 per cent of the club’s operating revenue comes from fundraising.
Last year the event raised $67,000, and over the 22 years the auction has operated it has raised $1.3 million.
Organizing committee member Bob Richer said the team works year-round to make the event a
success. “I think supporting the club is im-
portant, that’s why we do it. That is our motivation,” Richer said. “That is what brings in the volunteers and why we work the hours we do. The motivation is the kids.”
The committee has lined up a number of unique auction items, including king and queen mattress-es, installation of a home furnace,
an Ottawa Senators suite and res-taurant gift certifi cates, to name a few.
“There are some really popular items,” Richer said. “There are some items that are repeats and you hear people who come back every year to get those items.”
Tickets for the auction and din-ner are $75 per person. The evening includes a dinner, a bidder number
for use for all live auction items and admittance to the after party. Tickets for the after party are $30 per per-son or two for $50 which includes admittance to the Cooper Brothers show at 9:30 p.m.
Doors open at 5 p.m., the auction starts at 7 p.m. and the music will begin at 9 p.m.

NPN Numbers - What are they?Health Canada assesses Natural Health Products (NHPs) for their safety, efficacy and quality before they are authorized for sale in Canada. In assessing NHPs, Health Canada looks at the information provided by the applicant to determine whether the product formula is safe and the health benefit claims are reasonable for the proposed ingredients and dosage amounts. Health Canada assesses any risks which the product may pose, for example, when combining the NHP with other NHPs, prescription drugs or foods, or when the product is used by certain consumers such as pregnant or breast feeding women. Health Canada’s assessment assures that appropriate warnings and cautions appear on the product label so that consumers can make informed choices. Health Canada also examines the practices and controls which are applied in the manufacture and processing of the NHPs to ensure that the products are of high quality (e.g. controls to prevent product contamination or a mistake involving use of an incorrect ingredient).How do I know which products are safe?Canadians can identify NHPs that have been licensed for sale by Health Canada by looking for the eight-digit Natural Product Number (NPN) or Homeopathic Medicine Number (DIN-HM) on the label.A NPN or DIN-HM on a label means that the product has been authorized for sale in Canada and is safe and effective when used in accordance with the instructions on the label.Disclaimer: We take pride in our products and want to ensure you receive the best quality and experience when shopping with us.

News - When Parks Canada div-ers ended a 170-year search for the lost Franklin ships in the Northwest Passage this fall, it was just luck that the Rideau Township Histori-cal Society had already booked one of its top archaeologists to discuss Canada’s arctic shipwrecks.
“When they found the HMS Ere-bus, it was a bonus,” laughed event organizer Ruth Wright. “The timing was impeccable.”
On Thursday, Nov. 20, Parks Canada senior archaeologist Jona-than Moore will visit the Alfred Taylor recreation centre in North Gower to share his experiences searching for HMS Erebus as well as two lost search and rescue ships, the HMS Investigator and the Breadalbane.
HMS Erebus was one of two ships used in Sir John Franklin’s expedi-tion to find the Northwest Passage in the Canadian arctic, the other being HMS Terror. Franklin and his crew left England in May 1845, but by 1848 it was clear that something had gone terribly wrong.
Franklin’s wife, Lady Jane Frank-lin, organized a search and rescue mission from England.
The Breadalbane was one of two American ships dispatched to search for the Franklin expedition along with the HMS Investigator and a handful of other British ships.
But in August 1853, the Breadal-bane and the Investigator were both trapped in the ice and abandoned.
The Breadalbane sank approxi-mately 500 miles north of the Arctic Circle, not to be found until 1980, by the Canadian Coast Guard. It is now one of the most northerly wrecks known throughout the world, and also one of the best preserved.
The Investigator met a similar fate in 1853 when the ship became trapped in ice near Mercy’s Bay, NWT. For many years it was vis-ible to the nearby Inuit communi-ties, but by 1915 had disappeared under the ice. Parks Canada archae-ologists found the wreck more than 100 years later in 2010.
The most exciting discovery, though, was the day in September of this year when Parks Canada re-searchers – including Moore – final-ly found evidence of the Erebus near O’Reilly Island, NU. The discovery marked the end of a 166-year search for evidence of the Franklin expedi-tion, in which all 128 crew died.
The HMS Terror has not yet been found.
Moore will shed light on these shipwrecks and their discoveries during his presentation, which be-gins at 7:30 p.m.
While there is no direct local con-nection, Wright said the historic society’s members had expressed an interest in learning more about
Canada’s arctic history. “We don’t just do completely lo-
cal things, its anything that’s of in-terest to our members,” Wright said.
The event is also open to the pub-lic.

News - Brenda Truong is like many high-school students – she likes her hands-on class-es, like woodworking, but she thinks she prob-ably wants to go to university.
After trying out a virtual welding machine at Algonquin College on Nov. 4, Skills Canada is hoping students like Truong will take anoth-er look at how the skilled trades could offer a fulfi lling – and well-paying – career.
Truong says her skill at things like wood-working and welding will also make her a good doctor, which is why she is going to university when she graduates. But other students visiting the college were more intrigued by the offer-ings presented as part of Skills Canada’s Na-tional Skilled Trades and Technology Week.
With interactive booths presenting options that ranged from machining and metrology to dermatology and hospitality, many students in attendance said they were surprised at the range of topics they could study at college.
After taking a turn wiring the circuits for a
truck coach light board, Robyn Lay, a Notre Dame High School student, said she didn’t realize the options available at colleges like Algonquin.
Other students may have already decided to attend college, but used the interactive booths to try out programs they might be interested in studying.
“I don’t really like sitting down,” said Eliza-beth Bojo, another Notre Dame student who was testing out machining. Technology-based programs caught her eye, and that’s something Skills Canada wants to showcase more, said spokesperson Jennifer Cavanagh.
The National Skilled Trades and Technolo-gy Week, now in its 10th year, has grown every year, as has the try-a-trade event Skills Canada uses to launch the week, which will feature events across Canada that promote awareness of career opportunities in technology and the skilled trades.
“The word about skilled trades needs to get out there,” Cavanagh said. “There are a lot of great options and a lot of great careers … But it really is great for kids to see and feel it.”

NOTICE OF PLANNING COMMITTEE MEETING
Tuesday, November 25, 2014 – 9:30 a.m.
The items listed below, in addition to any other items previously scheduled, will be considered at this meeting which will be held in the Champlain Room, City Hall, 110 Laurier Avenue West, Ottawa. To see any change to this meeting agenda, please go to Ottawa.ca.
Imagine having every move tracked, every conversation recorded, and being bombarded
with negative and harmful messaging at any moment.
As technology becomes smarter, so too do abusers, say counsellors working at the Western Ottawa Community Resource Centre.
“We’ve seen more and more of it. For example, using cell phones with GPS systems to track where the woman is,” said Vivienne, a counsellor in the resource centre’s Violence Against Women (VAW) program. No last names are used to protect those working at the resource centre.
Home security systems that use cameras and smart phones become 24-7 monitoring devices.
“That’s always good in a healthy relationship, but can you imagine that in the hands of an abuser?” Vivienne asked. “He watches the woman; who she’s with, all the movements.”
The various systems are used to give an abuser more control over their partners or ex-partners; the ability to monitor every movement, to record and listen to every conversation, and to undermine any sense of safety or security.
Clients have found peel-and-stick cameras placed around their house and bugs in the landlines, said Vivienne.
Over the past fi ve years, the numbers of women reporting technological abuse at the centre has become more common, said Vivienne. It includes cyber stalking and bullying, threats and harassment, sexual, emotional and verbal abuse.
“This is going to get worse and worse,” she said. “The
more technology there is out there the more it’s going to be used against the vulnerable. And that’s really sad.”
November is Woman Abuse Prevention Month and Metroland Media will be publishing a number of articles on the subject. The fi rst installment focuses on technological, or digital, abuse. Digital abuse occurs when technology is used to gain and maintain control over a partner or ex-partner.
It is emotional, physical and psychological, said Maureen, a counsellor who works with children in the resource centre’s VAW program. Many abusers will give their child a smartphone and use that to keep tabs on what happens when the child is with the mother.
“Some will send messages through the children, putting the child in the middle,” said Maureen.
“They’ll use the kids – ask ‘where are you? Where’s mom? Is mom there with a man?’” added Vivienne. “Then they know where mom is whenever
the kids are with mom.”Online, cyber bullying isn’t
only something teens and youth have to deal with. An abuser
will stalk social media accounts, post and spread rumours, and send threatening messages.
Text messaging also becomes
a form of control. The constant bombardment is instant.
See SAFETY, page 54
YOUTUBE
A still taken from a promotional video by Interval House, which provides safety and support to women and their children escaping abuse, shows how an abuser can use technology to control his victim. The video, titled ‘Phone Demo’ can be viewed at youtube.com/watch?v=8eUIe_mnVjk.

“We’re not just talking about one or two texts, we’re talking about hundreds,” said Maureen.
“They live in fear constantly,” said Vivi-enne. “I’ve had women come in and they can-not even speak; they are so overwhelmed.
“We’re busy enough just texting in a healthy situation … but to have someone like this do it to you all the time … swearing at you … it really has a huge impact. They tell me they can hear his voice, can hear the tone.”
And it’s not always as easy as turning the phone off or disconnecting from technology. When children are involved and the parties need to talk about access, it can get compli-cated.
“If the court says you have to communi-cate for the sake of the children … (abusers are) able to get around it by saying I need to talk about the kids,” said Maureen.
So what can be done? Creating a safety plan can help, said Maureen.
“There’s a lot of things women can do themselves,” she said.
If it’s possible, change phone numbers, change phones and screen calls from un-known numbers.
If that isn’t an option, there are other steps people can take, she said. When children are
in the mother’s care, she has a right to hold on to and monitor any cell phones.
Keep track of and save all abusive, harass-ing and inappropriate voicemails and texts. Have a friend screen any incoming messag-es.
Make sure phones are password protected. Check to ensure the satellite symbol is not fl ashing, that programs do not start running when the phone is turned on and that the battery life isn’t shorter than normal – those signs can all mean a cell is being tracked.
Online, change passwords regularly and keep them private. Edit privacy settings on social media sites and applications so only people that have been approved can see any posts.
Check the location settings on smartphone applications and turn off the GPS tracker for any apps that don’t need it.
Women can also request a sweep of their home to locate any recording or monitoring devices. Ottawa police and Ottawa Victim Services both offer this service, said Vivi-enne.
The Western Ottawa Community Resource Centre has a large violence against women program that helps women living in West Carleton, Kanata, Goulbourn, Rideau, Ne-pean, Osgoode and Bay wards.
The program offers peer support, individ-ual and group counselling services, transi-tional housing, referrals, and resources. The
resource centre also runs Chrysalis House, a secure 25-bed shelter in the city for women and children leaving an abusive home.
To learn more about the services, visit wocrc.ca/en/programs-services/violence-against-women-services or call 613-591-3686.
It is possible to get help. “If you live in fear you’re giving them ex-
actly what they want,” said Vivienne. “Take your power back and just live well. That’s what (abusers) hate, so live well.”
ResourcesThere are resources available for women who want to leave an abusive household or who want more information. If someone is in immediate danger of abuse, call 911.The following Ottawa-based crisis lines are available 24 hours a day:• Chrysalis House: 613-591-5901• Interval House: 613-234-5181• La Présence: 613-241-8297• Maison D’Amitié: 613-747-0020• Women’s Crisis Line: 613-745-4818• Distress Centre: 613-238-3311

News - The Rockcliffe Air base will once again welcome home veterans.
The Multi-Faith Housing Initiative announced plans to build veterans housing, explaining the project will place a roof over the heads of at least 16 veterans on the former Canadian Forces Air Base as early as 2017.
“This is land that has a lot of history,” said Su-zanne Le, Multi-Faith’s executive director, at the Eastview Branch of the Royal Canadian Legion on Nov. 3. “We owe it to commemorate those who served and now need our help.”
The Multi-Faith Housing Initiative offers 100 tenants in Ottawa’s downtown subsidized hous-ing. Le said this building would be managed by the organization in the same capacity.
Canada Lands Company, the crown corpora-tion managing the 125 hectares of land east of downtown, initially asked the public what they would like to see as a commemorative piece for the former air base. Le approached CLC’s real es-tate director Don Schultz about the idea of build-ing affordable housing for veterans. Schultz said he loved the idea.
“I thought it was a winning idea,” Schultz said. “I knew many organizations needed to be involved to make it happen, but really all the credit goes to Suzanne.”
The 16-unit Veterans House building is project-ed to cost $2.3 million, with $1.5 million needed to purchase a piece of land from Canada Lands Company.

“The more money we can raise, the more hous-ing we can provide,” Le said.
Former soldier and Innes councillor-elect Jody Mitic attended the announcement.
“I support this 100 per cent,” he said. “Coming from a life that is really regimented to a transition to civilian life is really tough. If we can help with that, give them a purpose and a roof over their heads and gradually allow them to support them-selves, it’s a good thing. “
Mitic said as a rookie councillor, he has a lot to learn, but one thing he will be fighting for is see-ing this project get off the ground.
The Multi-Faith Housing Initiative is working with Ottawa Salus, Soldiers Helping Soldiers, Veterans Emergency Transition Services Canada, the Royal Canadian Legion Ontario Command and District G, True Patriot Love and Centretown Affordable Housing Development Corporation to get the project off the ground.
Le is aiming to have the funding ready to build in the first phase of development on the land, which Canada Lands plan to sell land by 2016, with 2017 occupancy.
Schultz said Le’s plans are possible, as long as
they manage to get the funding in place. Currently, fundraising for the project is being
organized through the Multi-Faith organization on its website, multifaithhousing.ca.
Ottawa Salus and Soldiers Helping Soldiers will aid the organization to identify veterans in need of housing when it becomes available.
According to retired Lt-Gen Andrew Leslie, there are more than 40,000 recent veterans, half a million Korean and Cold War veterans and a few Second World War veterans who all need help in some way in Canada.
“If there is one veteran who does not have a place to stay in Ottawa for the night, that is one too many,” Leslie said.
A study conducted in Toronto in 2013 on homelessness found that 11 per cent of all home-less living “rough” had a history of military ser-vice. Veterans comprised of seven per cent of all homeless surveyed.
Currently in Ottawa, it is estimated that there are 500 homeless people living “rough,” meaning that at least 35 to 55 veterans are sleeping on the street. More information about the development of the former air base, the current draft commu-nity design plans and project details is available clcrockcliffe.ca.
Project needs $1.5 million to build
