PROUDLY SERVING THE COMMUNITY OF NEPEAN
JENNIFER MCINTOSH
A proposed condo complex on Greenbank Road at Craig Henry Drive has hit a roadblock with residents.
William Buchanan, a manager of planning for Phoenix Homes, was on hand to answer questions for residents about the development.
Phoenix purchased the three lots from 149 to 153 Greenbank Road in March and is asking for an exception to the height rule under the current zoning.
There are single-family homes on the lots right now.
“Basically the current height limit is 10 metres and we are asking for 20,” Buchanan said, adding that the medical offi ce and other buildings across the street have heights of 18 metres.
The condo complex would be 72 units with mixed one and two-bedroom apartments. The total foot-print of the complex, according to the diagrams at the open house would be 1,170 square metres with an underground parking garage for 66 spaces and an additional 13 spaces at street level.
The building would be set back from the street by three metres and as much as 7.5 metres from the properties that currently sit on Wade Court.
An aggressive stance was taken with the fi rst question when Richard McCarthy asked Buchan-an if he would want a highrise in his backyard.
“I don’t think I would have a problem with it,” Buchanan said.
Wes Friedrich, another Wade Court resident, said that he could kiss his view and sunlight good-bye thanks to the six-storey building that would be right in front of his house.
“I know my property value is going to go down,” he said.

After months of promotion and hard work, Crystal Bay Centre for Special Edu-cation won a $94,000 prize from the Aviva Community Fund competition.
Principal Peter Veurtjes said that mon-ey, coupled with the $46,000 the school has already raised should be close to the $140-150,000 anticipated cost of the structure.
“We are just thrilled,” Veurtjes said. “I imagine the students faces will be glued to the windows watching the construc-tion when it starts in the spring.”
The competition — which gave $1 mil-lion to 10 different project nationwide — saw nearly 2,000 submission and 2 million votes this year. It was created by Aviva Canada, a property and casualty insurance company.
“The Aviva Community Fund win-ners celebrate Canada’s regional diversi-ty—this years winners come from as far north as Yellowknife, NWT and coast to coast from Vancouver, BC to Rexton, NB,” Paul Fletcher, senior vice-president with Aviva Canada, said in a press release.
Crystal Bay’s structure won’t be just any playground.
It will have wheelchair ramps and ac-tivity centres with tactile and sensory elements for the special needs of the stu-dents.
The school serves a population of 88
high needs kids from everywhere west of Bank Street and stretching as far as Stittsville, Carp, Barrhaven, Kanata and Kemptville.
While it’s quite obvious the enthusi-asm and care the students get from listen-ing to Veurtjes, there’s an obvious hole in the school’s yard, with no play structure or activities for the kids.
“It’s sad, there’s just nothing out there,” he said. “And because our ter-ritory is so big, we don’t really have a specifi c community we can call on to fundraise, besides it’s not like our kids can go door to door selling chocolates.”It was an educational assistant who ap-proached Veurtjes with the idea of us-ing the Aviva Community Fund con-test to get the money needed to build a wheelchair-accessible play structure.The Aviva Community Fund is an an-nual contest that has the public vote on ideas ranging in cost from under $25,000 to $500,000.
“We are so grateful to Aviva and their judges. Having the opportunity to display our school, dedicated staff and wonderful students,” Veurtjes said.
Staff and members of the community went to work in the fall, sometimes vot-ing several times a day to make sure that project was picked.
“The play yard is more than just equip-ment,” Veurtjes said. “It will allow our students to interact socially and positive-ly towards their peers and staff.”
Crystal Bay wins money for playground
Principal Peter Veurtjes said Crystal Bay Centre for Special Education students will have a new playground next fall thanks to a win from the Aviva Community Fund competition.

It may not be a fairy tale end-ing, but volunteers at STRIDE are happy to see their van back in one piece.
The van — which STRIDE uses to deliver and pick up medi-cal aid equipment, such as: hos-pital beds, wheelchairs and com-modes — was stolen out of the Grenfell Crescent parking lot sometime between Jan. 7 and 13.
“We only use it on Thursdays to deliver equipment, so we didn’t notice it was missing at fi rst,” volunteer Catherine Gard-ner said. “But when we reported it on Jan. 13 several people said that they didn’t remember see-ing the van at all that week.”
STRIDE, a volunteer organi-zation that refurbishes donated wheelchairs and other medical equipment for reuse, purchased the vehicle with the help of a $15,000 government grant.
“When we don’t have the van going out and making deliveries, we aren’t bringing in any money and then we can’t pay our bills, so it really has a ripple effect,” Gardner said.
The charity didn’t waste any time and spent the week getting the word out to the community to be on the lookout for the 2007 GMC Savanna.
Gardner said she thought the speedy recovery was thanks to the “V-eleven” logo on the driv-er’s side door.
“We were told by police that they found the van on a routine check of a parking lot on Cyr-ville Road,” Gardner said, add-ing that the license plates had been put on another stolen ve-hicle and were later recovered.
Gardner said that during the
van’s absence the support from the community was amazing, with an offer of a cube truck and use of some commercial vehicles to do deliveries.
“We are really thankful to the community for their support,” Gardner said.
Gardner said the van was cur-rently in the shop and she wasn’t sure how much of the damage would be covered by insurance.
“There were some scratches on the side and the masonite fl ooring was removed,” she said. “Also our portable wheelchair ramps were gone and the igni-tion was broken, along with the lock on the driver’s side door. It’s really a shame.”
Despite the bangs and scratch-es, Gardner said the van would be up and running by the end of the week.
“We need to make up for the lost time,” she said.

Bay Ward Coun. Mark Taylor hopes his public consultations will become a model for the rest of the city.
The new councillor will keep up the ward’s tradition of holding regular meet-ings with residents and community as-sociations, but the meetings will have a twist.
Instead of open monthly meetings, the group of approximately 40 people who gathered at Kristy’s Restaurant on Richmond Road on Jan. 28 decided to limit the meetings to every other month. Those meetings will be a chance for com-munity association presidents and other community stakeholders (such as repre-sentatives from local malls and agencies) to discuss local issues.
Other members of the public will be welcome to share their thoughts at two or three “town hall” style sessions Tay-lor plans to hold throughout the year.
The issue of localized decision making and the possibility of a citywide “bor-ough” system likely won’t be addressed by the city for a few years, Taylor said, but he hopes the Bay Ward meetings could serve as a model for local consulta-tion.
“If we get something that really works here in the west end, perhaps it could be a model,” Taylor said.
A possible borough system will be dis-cussed by the city’s governance renewal committee, which hasn’t met yet. It’s one of dozens of ideas for tweaking how the city government runs.
Several people at the meeting echoed Jack Keating’s suggestion that more people would attend the meetings if they were held at different locations across the ward.
“This way, you’re introducing the oth-er communities,” said Keating, who lives at Regina Towers and works with the Bri-tannia community gardens.
While most of the people who attended the Jan. 28 meeting supported the idea of limiting meetings to community asso-ciation presidents, Keating said there are
some areas in the ward that are not rep-resented by a community association.
Those residents could come to the town hall meetings or speak to the councillor’s offi ce directly, Taylor said.
Overall, Keating and other people at the meeting said they supported the change to the meetings because it would allow them to get more done.
“It’s going to be more positive, so we can solve things and not just have infor-mation sessions,” Keating said.
“I want to work with you to check
these issues off your lists,” Taylor told the group.
He said he wouldn’t promise any mir-acles solutions or quick fi xes, but prom-ised that progress would be made.
“I’m talking about moving the bar in-crementally so it’s better than it was,” Taylor said before quote former Ontario premier Bob Rae: “Don’t compare me to the almighty, compare me to the alterna-tive.”
Steve Hopwood from Woodpark said the city is “dropping the ball” on part-nering with malls in the community.
“We’re missing a golden opportunity,” he said – and representatives from Car-lingwood and the Bayshore shopping centres agreed. They said they would like to work with the community to part-ner on more events.
Taylor said a series of recent consul-tations on garbage collection that were held in malls show the city is willing to work with commercial buildings.
“We’re starting to follow the model that the rest of the business world follows – to go where the people are,” Taylor said.
Taylor said he was also looking into the possibility of streaming live video of the meetings online.

Buchanan said that while he sympa-thized with the residents concerns, the only way for the developer to make mon-ey on the property is to have at least 70 units.
“And we are in it to make money,” he said, adding that if the developer is turned down at planning committee they will take their case to the Ontario Munic-ipal Board (OMB).
Dr. Ian Carpenter, a Trend-Arlington resident, said he doubted Phoenix’s as-sertion that they couldn’t make money off of a three-storey complex.
“I think the reason we are seeing six storeys is because of a four-letter word: greed,” he said.
Knoxdale-Merivale Coun. Keith Egli, who urged the developer to have the meeting, said he wouldn’t be supporting the project once it made its way to plan-ning committee in April.
“I live in the neighbourhood and I sim-ply can’t support a six-storey develop-ment,” he said. “But I would suggest that you all write to the councillors on the committee so they can hear your views directly.”
Buchanan said because the city is un-willing to stretch the urban boundary, Phoenix has been forced into building
apartment complexes and townhomes.“There are limited land parcels avail-
able, so we must start building up if we can’t build out,” he said.
Aside from the concerns about loss of sunlight and changes to the character of the neighbourhood, more than one resident voiced doubt that there would be enough room on Craig Henry Drive to accommodate the cars that would be com-ing out of the complex.
Judy Marshall, who lives on Elvaston Ave, said the current homes have exits onto Greenbank Road.
“There are school buses and kids on Craig Henry Drive, I don’t think it can handle all those cars,” she said.
Buchanan said Phoenix commissioned a traffi c study that said the current road-ways would be able to handle the increase in traffi c. The complex would exit onto Craig Henry with a right-hand turn so drivers could only go west.
“I know some of you are skeptical, but we have had traffi c experts look at the roadways and they say it can handle the increased traffi c,” Buchanan said.
The re-zoning application’s public con-sultation is a 98-day process. It is expected that it will make it to planning committee in April. Buchanan said if the developer is forced to go to the OMB, they could po-tentially have to wait until November or December to break ground.

1 OPINION
Mayor Jim Watson has obviously learned a few tricks about passing city budgets after watching the struggles of his predecessor, Larry O’Brien.
First, don’t make promises you can’t keep – “zero means zero” ultimately was the political epitath to O’Brien’s battles at the budget table.
Second, avoid confl ict.Case in point: the suggested transit cuts for the
2011 draft budget.The draft budget suggests the city will seek $22
million in cuts this year and next, not to mention a 2.5 per cent hike in bus fares.
Which routes are going to be cut?We don’t know.How many routes will be cut?We don’t know.The city will hash out the messy details in
March – after the budget has been passed.It’s a great way to smooth the way for the ap-
proval of the budget – no one can raise a stink during public consultation, because no one has any idea what the cuts are.
These tactics are shifty at best.But smart as well.It allows the public to focus on the bells and
whistles included in the budget, such as $20
million in new spending, money offset by the $25 million for social services uploaded by the provincial government.
There’s $10 million for housing and poverty reduction; $2 million for economic development; half a million for environmental initiatives.
The carrot of new spending is in sight while the stick is locked safely away until after the budget passes.
In all fairness, Watson is tackling a diffi cult problem – the ballooning costs of transit in the City of Ottawa.
Cuts to public transit have never been a popu-lar subject come budget time.
Commuters will have to accept the reality that it looks like the city is fi nally going to clamp down on transit costs.
That will mean higher bus fares, reduced ser-vice and probably a lot more crowded buses – a reality that will continue until the city welcomes light rail improvements.
Eventually, some commuters – those who can afford it – will consider the option of travelling to work by car.
Those who can’t will just have to grin and bus it.
Commuters must grin and bus it
The signposts of ageing are many and they get more comical as you go along.
You remember becoming a teenager, bidding farewell to all that childish be-haviour, and welcoming new varieties of even more childish behaviour.
You remember being old enough to drink legally, old enough to leave home for work or university, an adult. This is perhaps the fi rst feeling of being old.
Then your baby sister goes off to university.
Then you become one of those older people you used to smirk at as a teenager – a married person, with a mortgage and a job, who stays in on weeknights.
Where does the time go, you ask. But the process has barely begun. You have children of your own and that’s around the same time that you notice that the police offi cers are no longer older than you. The children become teenagers and you begin sounding like your parents.
I’m old, you think. And it’s all down-hill from there. Soon, you are older than the police offi cers, older than the minis-ter at the church, older than the dentist.
Your children grow up, turn 30. You become a grandparent. You take naps. Surely it can’t get older than this.
But it can. Last week you open up the newspaper and it says Wayne Gretzky
has turned 50.So there you are. You, as a grown-up,
watched Gretzky as a kid. Now Gretzky feels old. How does that make you feel?
Perhaps it is not as shocking to you as all that. In this Facebook era, people are reconnecting with old friends, going to high school reunions, where they are surrounded by old people.
Somehow they sense that they are not kids anymore.
And neither is Wayne Gretzky. He is older than the sportswriters now, older than his dentist.
But there is a reassuring point in all this. Wayne Gretzky is 50 but he is not irrelevant. Almost all of the dozens of records he set still stand. Someone broke one the other day but it was an obscure thing – most career overtime goals, or something like that. For the rest of it, he
is still the guy.But so are you, when you think about
it. Your old records still stand. Sure, they are different kinds of records. But no one fl ips pancakes the way you do, or fi nds a parking space, or empties the dishwasher. You can climb ladders like nobody’s business and you never run out of windshield washer fl uid.
Just because Gretzky is 50 doesn’t mean he’s fi nished either. He can look forward to future accomplishments, such as the kind of stuff you’ve been doing.
You hold the record for reading the most consecutive Dr. Seuss stories aloud. You could be the best at remembering the names of bit players in western mov-ies. You can identify any car made in the last 50 years. You scored six goals that time, when you were older than Gretzky, at the neighbourhood rink. You saved a cat. No one tells a joke like you do.
And you just get better the older you are.
You can make a souffl é. You can play Beatles songs on the recorder. You can watch four games on TV simultaneously. You can fi gure out what’s wrong with the computer. And you know how all those sports columnists have been writing about what a considerate guy Gretzky is?
Well, you’re pretty considerate too. You hold the record, shared with a
number of others, for never forgetting an anniversary.
You are absolutely terrifi c at put-ting things into alphabetical order. The Sudoku is child’s play to you, mostly. You make great things out of leftovers. No one is better than you at fi nding the bright side of things. No one can fi nd a lost ball the way you can.
Maybe when Wayne Gretzky gets to be old he’ll have stuff like this to brag about too.

The public will now be able to listen to police interact with prisoners in Ot-tawa cellblocks.
Following allegations of police abuse, audio recordings will be added to video surveillance of the central Ottawa Police Service cellblock start-ing in February, said Superintendant Mike Flanagan.
But the sound recording will have to be turned on manually – something that raised the concern of Mayor Jim Watson.
“I don’t fully understand why peo-ple would expect something else,” po-lice Chief Vern White told media after the police services board meeting on Monday, Jan. 24.
The system isn’t meant to keep tabs on police offi cers during every mo-ment of their workday, White said.
“This is about monitoring actions involving citizens in our care,” White said. “It’s not about monitoring people who are working.”
Ideally the Ottawa Police Service would prefer to have a recording de-vice that turns on automatically when it needs to, White said, but that tech-nology is not available.
As for how the public can be certain the audio will be recorded when it should be, White said the public needs to put its trust in the police force.
“I guess you just have to have some level of trust,” White said. “I’m not suggesting mistakes won’t happen,” he said, adding that he doesn’t believe
any offi cers will intentionally neglect to turn on the audio to avoid being re-corded.
A supervising sergeant will be in charge of fl icking the audio recording device on.
Another change is the ad-dition of a permanent staff sergeant to oversee the cell-block at the central Elgin Street station. Previously, the sergeant split time be-tween the cellblock and the Elgin Street courthouse.
ALLEGED CELLBLOCK ABUSE
There are currently six Ottawa police cellblock inci-dents being investigated by the OPP, who will look into both the police procedures and a possible criminal aspects of the allegations, White said.
Ontario’s police watchdog is no longer probing one of the alleged cases of cell-block abuse.
The province’s special investigations unit (SIU) handed the Terry Delay case back to the Ottawa police with no charges, and that in-vestigation has been passed on to the OPP, White said.
“They haven’t told us that they would lay charg-es. There is no criminality. They haven’t really given us anything else,” White said.
The SIU is still investigating alleged cellblock abuse in the Stacy Bonds case.

Some of Ottawa’s best and brightest were thrown into a makeshift slammer at Billings Bridge Shopping Centre on Jan. 27 to raise money for National Capi-tal Area Crime Stoppers.
Ottawa West-Nepean MP and Nepean-Carleton MPP Lisa MacLeod cooled their heels in a 1964 Nepean Township police cruiser while waiting for their hearing with “judge” Max Keeping.
Councillors Katherine Hobbs, Rick Chiarelli, Keith Egli and Eli El-Chan-tiry were thrown into jail as well to raise money for Crime Stoppers.
Knoxdale-Merivale Coun. Keith Egli raised $200 for the charity.
“It’s a really great event,” he said. Lyall Steele, an executive at Nepean-
based Graydex, said he was on the phone in a panic the morning before the event, but managed to raise approximately $2,000.
Ken Ross, owner of Barrhaven’s Ross’ Your Independent Grocer, raised $500 to get himself sprung from the slammer.
Ottawa This Week, Nepean reporter
Jennifer McIntosh raised $200 after be-ing jailed for “playing hookey.”
“It was a lot of fun, I would do it again,” she said.
Gerry Lepage from the Bank Street Business Improvement Area (BIA), Ot-tawa Police Chief Vern White and Dep-
uty Fire Chief Allen Karkkainen were some of the other partici-pants that helped organizers to smash their fundraising goal of $10,000.
The total for the day was $14,350, marking a good start to 2011 fund-
raising activities.“We saw the community come together
in a new way today,” Alex Lewis, fund-raising chair for Crime Stoppers and executive director of the Bells Corners BIA, said.
The Bail or Jail event is one of the charity’s biggest annual fundraisers and has been used every year since the incep-tion of the National Capital Area Crime Stoppers more than 25 years ago.
“It’s a big event for us and we are thrilled it went so well,” Lewis said, add-ing that the fun attitude of the Bail or Jail event will be continued with the March 31 “Crushing Crime with Comedy” event to be held at Absolute Comedy.
According to the website, an average of 240 arrests are made each year thanks to tips from Crime Stoppers and approxi-mately $700,000 in cash is paid out annu-ally.

The Laurentian Place Walmart of-fi cially opened its doors on Jan. 28 — a little more than three years after Smart Centres purchased the site of the former high school.
“We named the site after the high school, which served the community on that site for 45 years,” Dennis Eberhard,
Smart Centres’ vice-president of devel-opment, said.
Despite traffi c and environmental concerns expressed by the community during the site plan process, consumers were lined up at the door waiting to see the new store.
“I would like to thank Smart Centres for listening to the concerns of the com-munity,” River Coun. Maria McRae said. “And Walmart listened as well. You will
notice there are no tire-changing or oil-changing services — something the com-munity felt would be better for the envi-ronment.”
Eberhard thanked IBI Group for their work on the traffi c consulting.
“Their design for the road work — es-pecially during the last fi ve months of construction was really wonderful,” he said.
The store takes up 9,290 of the total 27,871-sqaure metre site and is compli-mented by two, multi-tenant buildings and about 7,432 square metres of offi ce space.
There are three access points to the site — a right-in only access off Baseline Road and a right-in only and right-out only off Clyde Avenue.
There is also a pedestrian path to allow for cycling and walking.
Mayor Jim Watson congratulated the store for their hard work and thanked them for investing in Ottawa.
“This store represents economic growth and 330 new jobs from the area,” he said.
CHARITIES
Aside from greeting its new neighbours with 37 cent-a-pound bananas, Walmart started off by donating thousands of dol-lars to local charities.
Vito Molfetta, the new manager at Laurentian Place Walmart said that the company always tries to give back to the community.
He thanked associate Vi Golden for her work with the store’s new charity com-mittee.
“Walmart Canada gives $20 million each year to 1,000 different charities across the country,” Molfetta said.
The Canadian Cancer Society received a $1,000 cheque from the new store.
“Walmart Canada operates globally and donates locally,” Stephen White-head with the Canadian Cancer Society said. “Much like the work we do is local. Thank you very much.”
Also receiving $1,000 cheques were the Ottawa Humane Society, the Ottawa Food Bank, Ottawa Fire Services and St. Elizabeth Catholic Elementary School in Nepean — whose choir sang the National Anthem to celebrate the opening.
The Canadian Red Cross, Breakfast Clubs of Canada and the CHEO Founda-tion were given $4,000.
Norma Lamont with the CHEO Foun-dation said $3 million has come to the foundation since Walmart came to Ot-tawa.
“We are very appreciative of their sup-port to our community’s sick children,” she said.

George Sapounidis is a man with many elements.
The rock, bouzouki-playing Greek Ca-nadian is a statistician by day and a lover of multi-cultural folk songs by night.
He can sing folks songs in 10 different languages and was called a version of El-vis to Chinese people by a CBC documen-tarian who followed his Mandarin folk performances.
His early performances in Canada in 1977 George went on to take China by storm, going on tour, fi rst solo, then with
his band to play at international arts, rock and folk festivals across Canada and China.
His efforts culminated in a documen-tary called “Chairman George” which aired on CTV and the BBC.
“I love to perform, I take all my passion and give it to my audience,” Sapounidis said, adding that he learned Mandarin from a girlfriend.
“Languages are just like bubble gum on the bottom of my shoe. I can’t get them off,” he said.
But back home in Canada, Sapounidis said he likes to showcase his Greek mu-sic and heritage.
The band will hit the National Arts Centre’s fourth stage on Feb. 5 to promote
Ouzo Power’s Greatest Hits Vol. 1 CD.It is the third CD he has put together
with what he calls Canada’s top back-up musicians. Stuart Watkins, Fred Guignion and Ross Murrary.
The style of the music is Greek Re-betika — a subversive music of protest and of raw human emotion infused with blues and rock.
“It has never been performed this way,” Sapounidis said. “I am very excited to perform this weekend.”

Suzart, a Nepean-based musical the-atre company, is having one of its busi-est seasons ever, according to publicity director Alison Manning.
Suzart, in its eighth season, will kick things off with a Romance Cabaret and spaghetti dinner on Feb. 12 at the Wood-roffe United Church banquet hall.
“The dinner theatre is something we do fairly often,” Manning said. “But the Val-entines theme is new. The audience will be entertained with love songs while they eat. We think it’s going to be a big hit.”
Tickets for the Feb. 12 show will be $25 for singles and $45 for couples.
Rehearsals for Anything Goes, a story of the madcap antics aboard an ocean lin-er bound from New York to London, start in February. The Cole Porter classic will be performed at St. Paul Catholic High School auditorium from May 27 to 29.
Elaine McClausland, one of the found-ers of Suzart, will be directing the 60 sing-ing and tap-dancing cast for this show.
Ticket prices are anticipated to be $22 for adults, $18 for seniors and students and $13 for children under 12.
A cabaret variety show will take the stage at Woodroffe United Church again on April 9 and April 16, members of Su-zart will take part in Showtune Show-
down.The annual event is hosted by Tone
Cluster Choir and is a Broadway-Musical themed concert and competition.
The competition will feature four-singer teams from three musical theatre groups.
Representing Suzart will be Kraig-Paul Proulx, Kathleen Arbour, Randy Coles and Jennifer Fontaine.
Suzart won the competition in 2008.Hats! — a new musical about a 49.999-
year-old woman who reluctantly faces turning 50 — will hit the stage at Ash-bury College in Rockliffe on June 24, 25 and 26.
Sue Dacey, the “Sue” in Suzart will be directing that show and rehearsals are set to start in March.
From Aug. 4 to 6, the likes of Frank Sinatra, Dean Martin, Sammy Davis, Jr., Peter Lawford, and Joey Bishop will be hitting the stage of Woodroffe United Church. In a story about a diner in trou-ble, God sends the Rat Pack back down for one more show to help out.
Sure to be a hit with selections like “High Hopes,” “I’m Gonna Live ‘Til I Die,” and “Young at Heart,” Ellen Seguin will be directing. “It’s going to be an amazing season,” Manning said.
All tickets are available at the website www.suzart.ca, or you can call the box of-fi ce at 613-828-3500.

Seven Carleton University students will brave the unknown and head out to Antarctica for a fi eld study course on Feb. 12.
An organization called Students on
Ice, which organizes trips to the Arctic and Antarctica, will run the trip.
Led by Canadian adventurer, environ-mentalist and educator Geoff Green, the program provides participants with a unique educational opportunity that allows them to visit some of the world’s most wild and awe-inspiring ecosystems
in order to experience a transfor-mative connection with nature – a connection that changes the way they understand and act in the world. Green has already travelled to Antarctica 80 times.
The group will fl y to Ushuaia, a picturesque community at the southern tip of Argentina, and then board MV Ushuaia, a 3,000-tonne, ice-strengthened vessel out-fi tted for supply and oceanograph-ic research. They will be joined by students and staff from elsewhere in Canada, the United States, Aus-tralia, New Zealand, India, Kuwait, United Kingdom, Spain, Norway, Sweden, France and Argentina.
Nepean resident and earth sci-ences undergrad student Jeremy Powell said packing may be tough for the trip, but he can’t wait.
“We will be going onto the conti-nents with zodiacs,” he said. “What better way to learn about things
like climate change, then by actually be-ing there and having front-row seats to some of the changes.”
Powell said the trip costs students about $9,600, but Students on Ice has been really great at helping them with
fundraisers. So far, he said. He is halfway there.
“It’s a really amazing learning opportunity,” Kemptville resident Travis Mitchell said. “We will get to learn about Glaciers while actu-ally standing on a Glacier.”
The fi eld work is part of the coursework for three courses at Carleton that focus on the origin and evolution of Antarctica eco-systems over time. Of the seven students taking the undergradu-ate and graduate courses, six are earth sciences students while one is neuroscience. Three are under-graduates. The other four gradu-ate students also conducted their research in the Canadian Arctic, making them pole-to-pole adven-turers.
Mitchell is currently working on his Masters and said that his focus is paleontology.
“There is such a wealth of infor-mation there,” he said. “And I can use my experience from past work in the Arctic.”
Students will return home on Feb. 28.
While on board, the student ex-peditioners will conduct scientifi c research such as taking ocean wa-ter and sediment samples, as well as attend lectures and workshops.

Nicolas Ruszkowski VP, Communications Ottawa Hospital
Weaving a Hospital Web
447345
Professor Pierre Bélanger taught New Media at the University of Ottawa, in 1994. The internet, web-sites and instant messaging was still con-sidered novel. Perhaps even a little obscure.
We actually devoted hours of class time to learn about search engines, web-sites and messaging. Today, four-year olds can do this with no instruc-tion. But we were still asking: what is the art of the possible? What will communications look like thanks to the internet?
They would be instant. They would force real-time dialogue. They would become brief, bite-sized, “user-friendly”. They would change people’s ex-pectations of good communications.
All of that, and more, has come true. People of all generations and service providers from all sec-tors have embraced the internet, social media, and social networking.
Until recently, however, The Ottawa Hospital had been slow to embrace these changes.
Our web-site looked like it had been built not long after 1994. It was hard to update, and didn’t allow instant communications. It didn’t seek out patient and visitor advice, nor promote dialogue. It was not “user-friendly”. In short, it did not live up to expectations of good communications.
That changed with the launch of a new www.ottawahospital.on.ca
The site is built on 5 principles. It is inclusive, not only of different professions, departments or pro-grams, but of our patients, visitors and commu-nity. It is bilingual, so that everything is available in English and French. It is accessible, whether you are visually impaired or not. It is dynamic; inviting visitors to share feedback and patient stories so we can always improve.
Finally, it is patient and user-centered. For in-stance, visitors can use the Directions and Maps section of the site to plan their itinerary from home, to hospital, back home. They can search our physician directory alphabetically, by name or specialty. And they can search information about programs, departments or clinics by keyword.
For the fi rst time, users can also follow us on Twitter, at OttawaHospital, and Facebook, on The Ottawa Hospital Facebook Group. We will use these tools to inform the community of important news, as well as maintain an ongoing dialogue about how best to serve our patients.
Don’t just take our word for it. Visit www.ot-tawahospital.on.ca and tell us what you think.

Hockey Day is coming to the west end.Thanks to the Trend-Arlington and
Manordale-Woodvale Community Asso-ciations, hockey afi cionados from Knox-dale-Merivale will have a chance to hit the ice on Feb. 12.
The event will take place at the Manor-dale Rink from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m.
Trend-Arlington Community Asso-ciation vice-president James O’Grady said the goal was to get eight teams to sign up for the event.
“Between games, en-tertainment, special guests and food and beverages will make this fi rst-time event a great experience for all participants and spec-tators alike. Everyone is welcome,” O’Grady said.
Organizers are look-ing for teams of four players — comprised of two players, 14 years or older and two players, 13 years or younger — to take part in the Hockey Day in Ward 9 Shinny Hockey Tournament.
The deadline for registration is Feb. 7.O’Grady did say that singles could sign
up and would be kept on a list.“We will do what we can to get every-
one on a team,” he said. The tournament will also feature live
entertainment by the Shriner Clowns, music, special guests, a BBQ and refresh-ments.
A sign up sheet is available at www.hockeydayward9.ca.
The event is the second function put on by the newly-formed Knoxdale-Merivale Community Associations (KMCA) — a group made up of the ward’s community associations — that organized an all-can-didates debate during the election cam-paign.
“A number of community came togeth-er to share information, knowledge and experi-ences, seeking, through cooperation, to strength-en the communities of old Nepean in an amalgamat-ed Ottawa and to improve the quality of life of their residents. Running ward-wide events is one way in which the KMCA is work-ing together,” O’Grady said.
In Barrhaven, the Ha-venlea-Chapman Mills Community Association (HCMCA) will be hosting the 4th Annual Winter
Family Fun Day, in concert with Hockey Day, from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. at Cresthaven Park. Bring your skates for shinny hock-ey, family skating and to test your skills on the ice. There will be off-ice games and activities including bouncy castles and sleigh rides. There also will be a spe-cial hockey game at 12:30 p.m. with some of Ottawa’s fi nest. Parents are free; kids $2.
Hockey Day comes to Knoxdale-Merivale

Week three in our Volunteering in Ot-tawa series explores how newcomers to Canada benefi t from volunteerism.
EMMA JACKSON
When Ouafaa Bouzid moved her family from Morocco to Ottawa in June 2009 so her daughter could attend university, she wasn’t expecting to get a job right away.
Few new Canadians do, for a number of reasons, most due to a lack of English skills and Canadian work experience.
Bouzid, who was an executive assis-tant for 20 years in her home country, was lacking both.
“When we came and we settled, my most important thing of all was to go back to school to improve my English. I speak French, but it wasn’t enough. To fi nd a job, you need your English,” Bou-zid said.
This was an obvious fi rst step in her journey to settling into her new country. Her next step was less obvious, however, but is quickly becoming a popular one among new immigrants: she became a volunteer.
When Bouzid took a volunteer recep-tionist position at OCISO, the Ottawa Community Immigrant Services Orga-nization in Hintonburg, the effect was nearly instantaneous. Not only did Bou-zid get offered a job at the same centre four months later, she also became fl uent in the English language.
“I was around my colleagues who were
speaking and talking English the whole day, so it helped me to improve my Eng-lish,” she said. “I was stuttering, I didn’t know how to answer, I was afraid. So now it’s getting much better.”
Bouzid’s experience is becoming in-creasingly common in Ottawa’s volun-teer sector, and is one of the biggest trends in volunteering according to Vol-unteer Ottawa’s Jeff Bond.
“Ottawa is one of the top four Cana-dian cities that’s a destination point for newcomers, so our landscape is chang-ing. We’ve taken more of a role in help-
ing people to engage this demographic,” he said, adding that newcomers are often looking for personal benefi t while at the same time a chance to help the commu-nity.
“A lot of these individuals who want to engage their community, there may be a real purpose and goal behind it. They’re looking to gain Canadian experience, de-velop skills, or develop a Canadian net-work. This is a great way to achieve those goals.”
Omaima Faris, volunteer co-ordinator at OCISO, said about 30 per cent of the organization’s volunteers are newcom-ers looking for experience – sometimes more than an agency is able to offer.
“The newcomers that are coming now are highly skilled, internationally trained professionals, and they’ve got a lot to offer, a lot more than your regu-lar volunteer job is even looking for. So stuffi ng envelopes, dropping off meals to homes, they can do all that and they’re happy to do that, but their skill set is at a different level,” she said.
“The challenge for volunteer co-ordi-nators is looking at the talents and skills that they bring and seeing where they can invest those skills in their agency.”
Even in a low-skills volunteer posi-tion, however, a new Canadian has a lot to gain.
“There are a lot of challenges and barriers that newcomers face. Isolation, the change of weather, the employment challenges. They come highly skilled and they’re not quite sure where they
fi t,” Faris said, adding that the immigra-tion process can sometimes lead to false hopes about how quickly an immigrant will fi nd a good job.
“They come here and they’re all ex-cited about being in Canada, and then as the struggles start to arise, especially not fi nding employment, someone’s con-fi dence in themselves, their capacities and their abilities can slowly deterio-rate.
“With volunteering, that can assist. It doesn’t give them a job, but it gives them a sense that their skills are valued. That really helps boosts them up so at their next interview, they walk in a very dif-ferent person than a person who hasn’t volunteered.”
There are also cultural barriers to volunteering. Some immigrants come from countries where the police cannot be trusted, so getting a routine police re-cords check in order to volunteer can be a huge challenge, Faris explained.
The other barrier is that some cultures don’t embrace volunteers in the way Canada does, and highly-skilled immi-grants may not recognize that working for free is the path to a Canadian job in their fi eld.
“Sometimes people are graduated, and they say ‘ok, we have our degrees but we can’t fi nd a job,’ ” said Bouzid. “But you need Canadian experience to get a job, and from the volunteer job you can get a Canadian job. It’s a path to follow, so I’m telling them as a newcomer, don’t give up.”
