SHOOT-OUT LOSTNepean Raiders drop opening game after giving up two third-period goals. 10
JENNIFER MCINTOSH
Andrew Haydon, former regional chair and the man credited for building Ottawa’s transitway has entered the mayoral race.
Haydon plans to run on the issue of light rail, calling it a waste of our resources. He is in favour of the downtown tunnel — but for bus rapid tran-sit, not light rail.
Haydon said using the tunnel for bus rapid transit would leave the city with a $65 million sur-plus—which could be used to increase service to Stittsville and the rural areas.
Haydon’s support base would come from the west end as he is credited with the creation of Ne-pean Sportsplex and the Nepean National Eques-trian Park.
He was regional chair of Ottawa-Carleton from 1978 to 1991. He was also reeve of Nepean Town-ship and briefl y served as the fi rst mayor of the City of Nepean in 1978.
Haydon is well-known and has a park overlook-ing the Ottawa River named after him, as well council chambers at Ottawa City Hall.
Haydon chose to announce his candidacy at Ben Franklin Place, the former Nepean city hall, be-cause he said his campaign will be about fi scal re-sponsibility and leading Ottawa to Nepean’s debt free example.
“I will not be a one-issue candidate,” Haydon said. “But LRT will be the cornerstone of the bud-get and saving that money will be the best way to move Ottawa to a debt-free model.”
He said he would also like to see O.C. Transpo turned into a commission of elected offi cials who would work to see morale improved.
“I think anyone in this community can tell you that O.C. Transpo is mismanaged,” he said.
The last time Haydon tried a revival of his po-litical career with a run for the council seat in Gloucester-South Nepean, he was defeated by Steve Desroches.

Ottawa Police Chief Vern White said he is proud of the role local law enforcement played in the arrest of four men charged with conspiracy to commit terrorist acts.
White said he was not able to talk about reports that some of the plans were typed out in a second-fl oor computer room at the Centrepointe branch of the Ottawa Public Library, but he did say that Ottawa police offi cer were asked to lend person-nel for surveillance and investigation in January.
Investigators from the RCMP, Ottawa police, Sureté du Québec, CSIS and the Canadian Border Services Agency used extensive surveillance and other police techniques to gather evidence.
The project was dubbed “SAMOSSA.”And in January, local personnel were
called in to replace the Mounties in round the clock surveillance of the Nepean-area men who were later arrested.
In addition, technicians monitored the computer traffi c between the suspects and bugged at least one of their homes.
Plainclothes offi cers shadowed the sus-pects and others around the city until June, stretching thin police surveillance resources for other cases, from narcotics to car thefts.
White said that while the operation stretched Ottawa police resources thin, there was simply no choice.
“It’s our city, and it’s just like any other case,” he said. “You stick with it until it’s done. No one really talks about cost.”
In a raid of a Bayshore apartment on Aug. 25, police seized more than 50 elec-tronic circuit boards designed to trigger IEDs remotely, he said, as well as videos, schematics, drawings, and manuals on the construction of IEDs.
Hiva Alizadeh, 30, Misbahuddin Ahmed, 26, both of Ottawa were charged with a conspiracy that allegedly took place in Iran, Afghanistan, Dubai and Pakistan.

The mayor’s race has heated up over
the past few months, with 20 people ready to throw their names in the hat for Ottawa’s top spot at the close of nomination deadline on Sept. 10.
The three front runners have been current mayor, Larry O’Brien, former mayor and MPP for Ottawa West-Nepean Jim Watson and Capital ward council-lor Clive Doucet.
The three top dogs are left after Bay Coun. Alex Cullen dropped out of the race to seek re-election in his own ward at an an-nouncement on Aug. 31.
Cullen — a strong propo-
nent of campaigning without the aid of corporate or union donations — cit-ed a lack of campaign funds and a de-sire to make sure Terry Kilrea didn’t win the seat as reasons for deserting his mayoral campaign.
Jim Watson’s campaign has been fo-cusing on O’Brien’s record.
At his campaign launch at Tudor Hall, Watson called the mayor’s four-year term as “chaos.”
Watson also promised to build an east-west transit line on time and on budget. He has also spoken out for borough council’s, which would place more power in the hands of ward councillors, and free up the mayor to focus on city-wide issues.
O’Brien has promised to take control of salaries at city hall and has returned to the promise of “zero means zero.”
He pledged to attempt a zero increase this time around and asked residents to vote for like-minded council candidates.
Doucet is campaigning on transit, saying we can have light rail in four years instead of 10 or 20. He also said he would not accept donations from corporate or union sponsors — mirroring Cullen’s stance of “one vote, one cheque.”
Andy Haydon announced his candidacy for the mayoral race at a press conference on Sept. 10. It was expected that Haydon’s campaign would focus on his bus rapid transit plan.
Haydon says an effective BRT plan could be funded for $5 mil-lion — about half or a third of the price of the current LRT plan.
Aside from Haydon, three other people put their names on the mayoral ballot at the last minute, bringing the total to 20 candidates.
Cesar Bello, Idris Ben-Tahir, Clive Doucet, Joseph Furte-nbacher, Robert G. Gauthier, Andy Haydon, Robert Larter, Robin Lawrance, Vincent M. Libweshya, Fraser Liscumb, Daniel Joseph Lyrette, Mike Ma-guire, Larry O’Brien, Julio Pita, Sean Ryan, Michael St. Arnaud, Jane Scharf, Charlie Taylor, Jim Watson and Samuel Wright are all hoping to sit at the head of the council table.

One of the newest candidates in Knoxdale-Meri-vale ward Mike Kennedy said he wants to see coun-cil go back to the basics.
Kennedy had decided he was going to run last September but wanted to get his house in order be-fore putting his name on the ballot in late August.
Kennedy, who is waiter with a background in research, spent months going over documents, learning municipal governance 101 before he knew where his stance was on key issues like transit, so-cial housing and the budget.
“Bus bays are a perfect example of how council is not working properly,” Kennedy said, referring to the removal of bus bays along arterial roads like Greenbank. “There is opposition to the removal of the bays so new councils should have reviewed the policies.”
Kennedy also believes that council should take a serious look at the pros and cons of mayoral candi-date Andy Haydon’s bus rapid transit plan before dismissing it out of hand for LRT.
Above all, Kennedy wants a return to account-ability.
He said he plans to spend the city’s money like he would his own household budget and plans to work with other councillors to separate budget “wants” from “needs” to save money.
He has a passion for politics on all levels and be-lieves council must start working toward the prom-ises of amalgamation.
“When that goal is achieved, everything works better for the taxpayer,” he said.
Kennedy joins the race of 10 other councillor hopefuls, who put their names on the ballot after incumbent Gord Hunter announced his retirement in March. Other names on the ballot are: Rod Va-nier, Keith Egli, Jules Ruhinda, Paul Obeda, James O’Grady, Fred Ennis, Al Speyers, James Dean and Syed Hasghar Hussain

It was early August when a group of 13 headed out east in two vans and an RV to change the lives of a young family in Summerside, PEI.
The group was a youth group from the Bells Corners United Church and they embarked on the week-long journey to build a habitat house for a single mother and her children.
The young people ranged in age from 15 to 21 and they spent the week hammering up drywall and doing the framework.
“It was really something to see,” Har-old Yule, one the church members who worked on the organization, said.
“When we got there, all you could see was a cement slab and when we left it looked like a house from the outside.”
Yule, who said he had been planning the excursion since sometime in Decem-ber, said that the kids got to meet the family that would be living in the house.
The church group’s fi rst voy-age was in 2005 when Harold took another group of kids to Cuba to work on a farm that provided food for a local Meals on Wheels pro-gram.
Then the group went to Nicara-gua where students built and re-habilitated a school.
Yule said he has plans to do some work with aboriginal com-munities and is looking for oppor-tunities in Nunavut.
“I really thought it would be good to expose the kids to the out-side world,” he said. “Some of the kids have never slept anywhere but in their own beds.”
The kids really enjoyed the experience too and learned a lot about how to build a house.
“Our trip was fi lled with long car rides, multiple pit stops, sore thumbs, smiles and a beautiful house built from the ground up for a wonderful family who is truly thankful” Rachel Bennett, one of the young people on the trip wrote in an email to Yule.
“I enjoyed getting to know Christa and her two boys Devin and Hunter, they are all very inspiring and a pleasure to have built a house for.”
The group also made a cash donation to Habitat for Humanity to help pay for the cost of building materials.

Part II: American Graffi ti glorifi ed car culture in the 1950s.
There’s no graffi ti to be seen in the mas-sive parking lots on Merivale Road’s on a summer Friday night in 2010, but there are wall-to-wall cars.
Custom car fans start arriving a little after the stores on the corner of Merivale and Meadowlands Drive close at 8 or 9 p.m. There’s a Tim Hortons next to the lot providing food, drink and washrooms.
Tonight more than 200 cars will pull in and park. Some Fridays the number may top 400. Drivers swap stories and custom-izing tips while some have a laugh at the expense of the local police, who can’t stop and inspect every car that comes and
goes.The lot is unoffi cially divided into dif-
ferent car styles. Old muscle cars gather in one row along Merivale. Motorcycles are next to them. Another patch is where drivers of right-hand drive cars imported straight from Japan meet up. The major-ity of the cars are small imports.
Street racing doesn’t seem to be a com-mon topic, no one is drinking alcohol and there are no drugs being sold or smoked. But there are illegal things going on; they’re just out of sight, under the hoods of some cars.
“You’re gonna see a lot of stupidity to-night,” says one car fan who asked not to be identifi ed.
Ottawa police cars are out tonight as part of Operation Erase, a provincewide program that operates on sporadic and
unpublicized dates. The goal is to deter street racing, but it’s also a chance for police to check vehicles for safety violations and emission-control equipment.
There are many cars that have been customized by their owners, including alterations to exhaust and emission systems. The result may be lots of noise and more smog in the air.
One car owner tells a reporter that his exhaust consists of a straight pipe that “helps the turbo run smoother.” He says the advan-tage is slightly more horsepower,
but for passersby it means a big blast of noise.
Many drivers asked not to be identifi ed for this article, worried that police may make them a target of the next Project Erase evening.
Hassan Chames is willing to go on the record about his 1993 Mustang and his reasons for customizing it.
“It makes me feel good,” he says of the time he spends driving the car.
The Mustang came right out of the showroom with a 302-cubic-inch engine; that’s fi ve litres in metric, or roughly three times the size of many small im-ports on the road today.
Chames said he’s changed the hood, rims, lights and bumpers, and added a body kit that adds to the car’s curves. He said he’s been stopped by police and Ministry of Environment inspectors before and they said his car complies with emis-sion requirements.
Chames calls emission testing “a waste of mon-ey,” a theme echoed by many drivers during the evening.
A late-’80s Monte Carlo
pulls in and heads for the muscle car dis-trict. Even at idle you can feel the exhaust thumping your chest, but many of these older cars are grandfathered, and exempt from emission testing.
In a parking area full of small import cars with tinted windows, a group of teen-age drivers from the Ottawa Valley has gathered.
Ontario’s emission-testing require-ments – the Drive Clean program – don’t apply to drivers who live outside the large urban areas, meaning the teens from Ren-frew don’t have to get their cars tested every two years. One suggests some city drivers may actually be avoiding the need for Drive Clean tests by renting post offi ce boxes in rural areas and using that ad-dress for their driver’s licence.
A driver named Nick admits his car wouldn’t pass an emissions test, and he doesn’t want to get stopped by the Ottawa police on this night. His exhaust system is missing its catalytic converter – the device that reduces the smog-producing gases that might otherwise leave the tail-pipe.
Nick says his catalytic converter – re-ferred to as a “cat” by many drivers here – is in the back seat, and is willing to show it off.
He says he removed the cat to make the car noisier and it doesn’t really boost his horsepower.
His friend John has a car that might comply with emission tests but draws po-lice attention because of noise. He says he’s been pulled over by police for noise four times and has received two tickets at $112 each.
Another member of the group has the baffl e removed from his tailpipe and car-ries it around in the trunk so he can make a quick fi x if he’s stopped. Jim says he takes the baffl e out “because it rattles,” not because he likes the extra noise.
Since 1999, more than 30 million Drive Clean tests have been carried out in On-tario. About 11 per cent of vehicles fail the test and require maintenance, repairs or are taken off the road.

010 OPINION
Pull brakes on transit planLETTER
Re: Transportation committee recommends full speed ahead on plan for transitway
To the editor: I read the article dated September 9, 2010 with some
interest. First of all I live north of the Queensway, not very far north... in fact, I live in the fi rst line of housing just north of the Queensway, west of Eagleson. My neigh-bours and I were pretty surprised that the city is moving forward with a transitway extension that is planned be-tween the Kanata Lakes run-off and our back yard. It will be some 60 feet off my back door. I was at the meetings, I voiced my concerns and no one ever responded to me. I am attaching my email that was cced to both Alex Cullen and Marianne Wilkinson and sent to the project head. No response.
About a month ago Marianne Wilkenson was at my door asking for my vote in the upcoming election. I brought up this issue to her right there on my front steps and she clearly had no idea the bus transitway extension was to go right off my back yard. Of course she could not speak to that issue but would fi nd out about it and get back to me. Needless to say, still waiting. Alex Cullen who has an opinion on everything, every time, simply said, and repeated in the article, that noise barriers would be put in place. I bought my home fi ve years ago and the feature that got my attention was seeing the ducks and geese in the pond located just off my back yard between
my property and the Queensway. Now the city wants to put up a wall so I can’t even see this pond?
What really blows my mind is no one has addressed my questions as to how east bound buses will get from my back yard north of the Queensway to south of the Queen-sway to meet up with the bus lane on the Queensway east-bound? Unless the city constructs a bridge they will have to cross on the Eagleson bridge. To get to that bridge, the bus will have to go north to Campeau Drive, turn right, then go to March, turn right and go south on Eagleson, probably continue through the park and ride as it does now. Now let me show you the insanity of Cullen’s exten-sion route: an express bus going west on the Queensway exits at the Campeau exit and stops at the new bus stop on Campeau/Teron Road, at which point that bus will have to cross fi ve lanes of busy Campeau traffi c without the aid of a traffi c light. I can tell you because I have to walk across that exact route to walk home, there is no way a bus is going to make that turn. If the city puts in another light, that will be three traffi c lights in maybe 200 metres. The light at Campeau/March or Eagleson is already a traffi c hindrance. A light at that bus stop will back up traffi c right through the Campeau/March intersection and that is a major exit from the Queensway so the city would be making an even bigger transportation mess.

Donna Blackburn could be called a veteran of the public school system in her commu-nity.
She has served on school coun-cils, handed out fl yers and at-tended board meetings to cham-pion for a better school system for her daughter and for other kids.
Last year alone, Donna Black-burn popped 5,000 bags of pop-corn and raised $3,000 for Bar-rhaven Public School.
Blackburn was also one of the fi rst candidates to put her name forward in the race for zone three — Barrhaven/Knoxdale-Merivale.
For a number of months, it looked like Blackburn — who ran for the appointment of the trusteeship last spring when Alex Getty died — would have
no one running against her, but Ismail Moham-med and Allan Halfper took up the gauntlet in early Septem-ber, making this one of the races to watch.
The post was vacated by incumbent Mark Fisher, who is running against Pam Morse in zone seven.
B l a c k b u r n says she wants to see a clean-ing up of board protocol.
One of the things she would like to see changed is the committee system. The way it works right now, is any board member can show up at a committee and have a vote.
“That means everyone shows up for conten-

Former educator and military offi cer Allan Halfper says he plans to whip the Ottawa-Car-leton District School Board into shape.
Halfper was posted to Ottawa about four years ago and lives in the Longfi elds area of Bar-rhaven.
He was a science teacher for 20 years and worked as a vice-prin-cipal and educational technology advisor for the Ontario Ministry of Education.
One of the planks of Halfper’s platform is education system that meets the needs of every student — regardless of their ability or culture.
Halfper also says that the school board needs to take a better approach towards fi scal responsibility, with an eye on fundraisers to help out with the bottom line.
But, above all, Halfper said he wants to improve communica-tion and develop a team of trust-ees, administrators, educators, parents and students to work to-gether shaping the schools of the future.
“I think we forget that school is not just about learning math
or literature,” he said. “We learn character and I want to make sure we are building compas-sionate, productive members of societies,” Halfper said. “These children are our future leaders.”
The race for OCDSB Board trustees began sluggishly — only 21 people had fi led nomination papers a month ago — but eight more people have put their names forward in the weeks since then.
Every incumbent seeking re-election is facing at least one challenger, while the single reg-istered candidate in Zone 11 (River) Shirley Seward will be acclaimed.
The race in zone three is wide open after Mark Fisher decided to run in the zone where he lives. Long-time parent activist and community volunteer Donna Blackburn and community de-veloper Ismail Mohamed are also vying for the seat.

Knowing the season is a marathon and not a sprint, Peter Goulet can live with his team stumbling out of the starting blocks.
Good thing too because the Nepean Raiders head coach and general manag-er saw his team crash on its fi rst hurdle of the year, dropping a 4-3 shoot-out deci-sion to the Hawkesbury Hawks on Day 1 of the CHL Showcase on Sept. 10.
The Raiders allowed two goals in 37 seconds midway through the third pe-riod, allowing the Hawks to tie the game and eventually earn the win in the break-away competition at the Kanata Recre-ational Complex.
“If we go 12-0 (to start the season), it gets in everyone’s head,” Goulet said. “It’s a good lesson learned.
“At the end of the day we missed a lot of good chances.”
Hawks goaltender Philippe Magnan stood on his head for portions for the game, particularly when Raiders got off to a strong opening 10 minutes. He made 43 saves in the victory.
Magnan held his team in the game, paving the way for the shootout.
Hawks head coach Martin Dagenais fell short of saying his team was playing for the shootout, but did have a few tricks up his sleeve.
He rested Christopher McPeak in the latter stages of the game specifi cally for the shootout and used Deric Boudreau, who had played with Raiders goaltender Dan Altshuller on the Ottawa Jr. 67’s mi-nor midgets last year.
The decisions worked out perfectly as both players found the back of the net, while both Brent Norris and Jeremy Mc-Carthy failed to beat Magnan.
“Nepean’s probably a top four or fi ve team in the league this year,” Dagenais said. “We won 12 games in 62 last year so we’re on the rebuild. Obviously we don’t
have the talent Nepean does.” While Dagenais also lauded Nepean’s
experience, it was a pair of rookies that led the way for the Raiders.
Blue-liner Ryan Johnston was all over the ice, scoring the Raiders’ fi rst goal of the season, and fi rst-round draft pick Kenneth Neil added a beauty of his own to put Nepean up 2-1.
With his mom in attendance from Clar-enville, N.L., Neil scored his fi rst CHL goal when he took a pass from defence-man Grant Telfer on a two-on-one rush.
Neil kicked the puck up to his stick and raised his shot into the top corner from the lip of the goal mouth.
The 18-year-old left winger was thrilled to get his fi rst goal in his fi rst game, but like his coach, called the loss a learning experience – especially with the back-to-back goals against in the fi nal frame.
“It’s only the fi rst game – 61 more games,” Neil said. “We’ve just got to battle for a full 60 minutes. We can’t take shifts off.”
Norris had the other Nepean goal. Ju-lien Quincou, Stephen Hrehoriak, and Joel Senecal scored for Hawkesbury.
Injuries to defenceman Alexandre Moisan and right winger Philip Binette forced the Raiders to only dress 17 skat-ers. Neither is expected to play until the team’s home opener on Sept. 15 against the Pembroke Lumber Kings.
Then Brandon Watt left the game at the half-way mark after taking a hit from behind. He did not return as a precau-tion – and played the next night against the Cornwall Colts – but his departure left the Raiders with 10 forwards to fi n-ish the game.
“I don’t want to make excuses for our guys,” Goulet said. “We’ve got to learn from that and rebound from that.”
Altshuller got the start for the Raiders and played well stopping 33 of 36 shots, displaying solid rebound control in the process.
Altshuller returned to the team from Belleville Bulls’ training camp, while he decides whether to sign
a contract and potentially play with them this year or return to the Raiders on a permanent basis.
Signing a contract with the Bulls would eliminate a year of NCAA eligibility.
While the decision is being made, the Raiders will carry three goaltenders – Altshuller, incumbent Michel Kowalew and signee Ryan Mulder.
Goulet wanted to give his top two stop-pers a chance to play in the Showcase, while allowing Kowalew to make amends for last year’s opening-round playoff exit.
“Cornwall knocked us out last year and (Kowalew) was in net for that and he remembers that,” he said. “I wanted him to play against Cornwall.”
The move paid off for Goulet as Kow-alew made 31 saves in a 4-2 win over the Colts on Sept. 11.
Keenan Hodgson, Scott Domenico, Craig Cowie, and Grant Telfer had the Nepean goals. Mitch Zion and Jacob Lal-iberte responded for Cornwall.
While Goulet would have liked to win the fi rst game of the season, he wasn’t at all disappointed with team’s play in the opener.
“At the end of the day, we didn’t get outworked,” he said. “They got a couple breaks. We didn’t get a couple breaks. We could have put the game away early, but we didn’t.”
Raider of the game: Ryan JohnstonJust about every time he was on the
ice, the 18-year-old defenceman made something happen. Playing in his fi rst CHL game, he logged over 20 minutes of ice time and scored his fi rst goal – going top shelf off a nice rush to open the scor-ing.

The newly-minted CHL got a chance to show off its changes on the opening day of its showcase tournament at the Kanata Recreational Complex on Sept. 10, and the two-referee system was front and centre.
The idea was voted on in the offseason and was initiated as part of the league’s rebranding in May. Because all Hockey Canada regional and national events must by offi ciated by two referees, CHL president Kevin Abrams said instituting the sys-tem a year earlier helps everyone adjust before the Fred Page Cup comes to Kanata in 2012.
“You’ve got to embrace change,” he said. “I see the benefi ts of it. I see that the positioning is bet-ter for the offi cial and gives him the opportunity to make better calls.”
Some feel the system isn’t without its wrinkles however.
In the second period of the game between the Carleton Place Canadians and Cumberland Grads, Canadians defenceman Donovan Gardiner was given a holding penalty during a play along the end boards in the second period.
The penalty was not called by referee Tom Swee-ney, who was positioned in the in the zone, but in-stead by colleague at centre ice Bruce Gray.
It’s because of examples such as that one that caused Canadians owner and head coach Jason
Clarke to vote against the idea in the offseason. “This isn’t the NHL,” he said. “We shouldn’t be
wasting our budget on two refs.”Not knowing exactly what transpired on that
play, Scott Loney said the call was probably made by the appropriate offi cial.
A 14-year offi cial of CHL, Loney has worked games with two referees before, and said the offi -cial in the zone is supposed to watch happenings in front of the net, while the other one’s priority is the play in the corner.
Plus, with the constant communication between periods, ensuring consistency usually isn’t a ma-jor concern.
“For the most part, guys are able to adapt enough and see what the other guy is calling so they know whether their standard needs to be lowered or in-creased,” Loney said, who worked the Kanata Stal-lions-Kemptville 73’s game later that night.
While Abrams recognized the additional expens-es the league must incur to hire more referees, he said it is the perfect opportunity for the league to help develop more high-quality offi cials.
He added another referee on the ice means more calls will be the correct one.
Nepean Raider head coach and general manager Peter Goulet agrees.
“I think it’s one of the best things we did all summer,” he said. “It helps get all the stuff behind the play. It eliminates a lot of cheap stuff and guys getting hurt.”

Kanata author Barbara Carriere is an inspiring wom-an; at age 59 she climbed Mount Kilimanjaro, summit-ing after only seven days.
Carriere and four other grand-mothers climbed Kilimanjaro in 2007 to raise awareness of the plight of grandmothers in Africa. The sixth member saw them off and met them at the bottom of the mountain.
Affi liated with the Grandmoth-ers to Grandmothers campaign run by the Stephen Lewis Foundation, Carriere’s group calls themselves the Kilimanjaro Grannies.
Carriere will be giving a presen-tation to the Twisted Sisters Book Club on Saturday, Sept. 25 about the book, Kilimanjaro: A Purposeful Journey, she and the other grand-mothers put together to chronicle their experiences.
A lifelong dream to climb the mountain, Carriere said she never thought she’d accomplish the feat.
“I became older and started doubting whether I could do it. When I saw an article in the paper and then another about this lady going to climb Kilimanjaro, I said to myself, ‘Hey I’m a grandmother. I’m in the same age group. If I don’t do it now I won’t get the chance again.’ It was a wonderful adven-ture.”
“The book is a coffee table book,” said the Kanata Lakes woman. “We have each chosen roughly 10 photos each representing the key moments that touched us in a particular way about our climb.”
The book discusses their diffi cul-ties, challenges, rewards and les-
sons learned, she said. “Every fall I invite a local author to speak to the book
club,” said Catherine Faubert, coordinator of Twisted Sisters. “Barbara motives women to make their dreams come true.”
The book club meets periodically over the year to discuss the novels read. Instead of being given a list of books to read, members pick stories that fall under a theme. The most recent theme was books made into movies.

tious issues,” she said, citing one night where she sat in a com-mittee meeting for three hours with no motions being passed.
“Then the item goes to board and it was debated for another three hours,” she said. “That’s six hours of wasted time.”
Blackburn said she wants to help parents to become engaged in the school system —something that would happen if board meet-ings didn’t last until midnight.
Like her counterparts, Black-burn said she cares about equal education for all.
For the past three years she has been a member Ottawa-Carleton Assembly of School Council’s children at risk committee.
“There is change that needs to happen, and I have the experience to make it happen,” she said.
