A
E
You,
mr.
mayor
and
good
morning,
everyone
today
we
have
at
our
last
council
meeting
for
this
term.
A
choir
and
they
haven't
been
play,
haven't
been
singing
together
very
long
they're
from
the
Nepean
School
of
Music,
which
is
the
School
of
Music,
which
is
the
oldest
business
in
bar
Haven.
Now
Bryan
is
not
that
old,
but
it's
still
30-some
years
old,
so
we're
happy
to
have
them
here
today
it
opened
in
1976.
They
have
well
over
600
students
taking
weekly
private
music
lessons
and
a
staff
of
over
35
teachers.
E
E
The
Nepean
School
of
Music
is
a
division
of
hummingbird
music
Limited,
which
has
helped
develop
many
notable
artists,
including
bar
havens,
own
Tammy,
rave
old,
whose
music
has
charted
across
Canada.
The
choir
today
is
directed
by
sibi
Pradeep,
and
most
of
the
seven
singers
in
the
choir
are
all
going
to
Bar,
Haven
schools
and
they're
between
11
and
16
years
old,
though
you
will
note
that
one
member
is
not
here
today,
because
that
person
would
be
Claire
Crist
this
year.
E
These
students
will
be
supporting
the
Ottawa
Boys
and
Girls
Club,
through
fundraising
for
the
Angel
Tree
Project
at
various
events,
your
bar
Haven
and
mr.
mayor
you're,
going
to
see
them
again.
This
Saturday
they're
going
to
be
singing
o
Canada
as
we
celebrate
the
opening
of
the
new
mental
Recreation
Complex
in
Barre
Haven,
which
we're
all
very
excited
about.
No
one
more
than
me
I
invite
you
all
to
come.
Everybody
that's
here
today,
so
without
further
ado.
Please
please.
B
D
Well,
that
was
great.
Thank
you
very
much
counselor
harder
for
choosing
those
talented
young
people
to
start
off
our
council
meeting
at
this
time,
I'd
like
to
invite
Karol
burrows
to
the
podium
for
this
meeting
city
builder
award
welcome
Carol
had
the
chance
to
see
Carol
at
of
course,
a
housing
summit
yesterday

on
over
here
and
I'm.
Gonna
ask
councillor
Jan
harder:
oh

I'm,
sorry,
Peter,
Clark,
Peter,
Clark

come
on
up.
C
D
Ottawa
strives
to
be
a
safe,
welcoming
and
accessible
City
for
all
its
residents,
and
we
have
made
significant
progress
this
term
of
counsel.
As
you
know,
we
have
already
the
older
adult
plan
is
growing
I'm.
Sorry,
as
you
may
already
know,
the
older
adult
population
is
growing
rapidly
in
20
years,
Ottawa
we
home
to
twice
as
many
citizens
as
we've
had
today,
don't
vent
on.
B
D
Such
as
the
older
adult
plan,
roundtable
and
housing
for
older
adults,
of
which
several
members
have
joined
us
today,
including
Carol,
ensuring
the
safety
and
security
of
the
aging
population,
is
a
communal
responsibility.
However,
thanks
to
the
leadership
of
Carol
burrows,
her
personal
advocacy
has
directly
touched
the
lives
of
those
in
her
community
and
across
the
city.
Sapone
dog
grass,
as
sole
leadership.
B
D
Wah
as
a
retiree
who
has
dedicated
herself
to
improving
the
lives
of
older
adults,
carol
has
been
involved
with
numerous
organizations
providing
a
depth
of
experience
that
ensures
older
adults,
have
accessible
housing
in
our
community.
Most
recently,
Carol
touched
the
lives
of
some
of
the
most
vulnerable
residents
in
our
community
by
chairing
cornerstones,
2.5
million
dollar
community
capital
fundraising
campaign
for
the
women's
residence
on
booth's
Street,
and
anyone
who
has
gone
to
see
Cornerstone
will
quickly
realize
what
a
welcome
addition
and
a
beautiful
addition
it
is
to
the
city
race
among
Carol.
D
Additionally,
miss
burrows
played
a
key
role
in
advocating
for
the
construction
of
Briere
continuing
care
facility,
as
well
as
chairing
several
other
boards,
such
as
the
care
for
health,
Community,
Services
Board,
the
Lynn
aging
at
home,
Task
Force
and
many
others
for
her
tireless
advocacy
for
older
adults
and
personal
commitment
to
ensuring
access
to
affordable
housing
is
great
pleasure
on
behalf
of
her
city,
councilor
Peter
Clarke
that
I
present
Carol
burrows
with
the
mayor
city
builder
award
for
our
final
meeting
of
this
term
of
council.
Congratulations
and
thank
you.
Carol.
B
Thank
you
very
much
mayor,
Jim
Watson,
it's
I
I
feel
humbled.
There
are
great
many
people
in
this
city
who
are
working
for
affordable
housing
and
a
large
number
of
those
are
working
for
affordable
housing
on
behalf
of
seniors
and
affordable,
supportive
housing
with
needed
supports,
but
there's
also
I'm,
just
one
of
the
ones
working
for,
but
there's
a
growing
number
of
people
of
seniors
in
the
city
who
need
or
are
going
to
need
this
type
of
housing.
B
D
Thank
you
very
much:
Carol
and
family
and
friends
and
former
rock
cliff
Celts,
our
Jane
Doe
Bell,
is
with
us
as
well.
Thank
you
for
our
next
presentation.
I
have
the
pleasure
of
introducing
two
of
my
colleagues
who
will
provide
an
update
on
the
City
of
Ottawa
United
Way
campaign.
Honorary
co-chairs

orb,
Louis
and
Doug
Thompson
are
here
today
to
provide
an
update,
as
the
campaign

the
midway

D
I
also
want

Dan
Shen
yay
and
Lisa

make
sure
this

is
a

on
behalf
of
city
council
and
thousands
of
Ottawa
residents
whose
lives

each

every
day.
Thank

B
F
Thank
You
mr.
mayor
good
morning,
everybody
Bonjour
just
say
it
took
morning.
Everybody
shares
of
this
year's
United
Way
campaign,
we're
here
to
provide
you
with
the
mid
campaign
update
at
this
year's
kickoff
event,
Oh
Don,
Marian
do
or
Plaza.
Some
of
you
might
remember
that,
windy
day
where
things
were
blowing
around
and
I
think
you
were
scared
off
by
a
few
puppets.
We
unveiled
a
goal
of
$500,000.
F
B
F
I
did
Wayne
my
role,
a
city
councillor
and
formerly
with
the
federal
government
I'm,
urging
all
new
and
outgoing
councillors
and
returning
councillors
to
fill
out
a
pledge
form.
Today.
The
programs
and
services
provided
by
the
United
Way
agencies
make
an
impact
in
our
community.
They
help
kids
parents,
the
elderly
was
essential,
supports
and
programs.
Your
donation
changes
lives.
Please
pledge
to
keep
these
programs
alive.
Very
view.
Engage
a
permit,
see
ending
these.
F
Become
a
friend
of
the
campaign
today
by
donating
$20,
a
pay
or
even
better,
become
a
leader
by
donating
$40,
a
pay.
You
know,
there's
a
representative
waiting
out
there
for
you.
They
might
have
intercepted
you
already.
They
have
the
pledge
forms
we've
even
made
it
easy
for
you,
we've
already
printed
your
names
on
the
form,
so
all
you
have
to
do
is
stop
by
the
table
sign
on
the
dotted
line.
Even
your
name
is
there.
Mr.
F
C
Good
morning,
bozo
truce-
and
you
know
now
why
counselor
Bluest
came
first,
because
he
he
was
able
to
speak
French
and
I'm,
not
as
your
fellow
co-chair
noted,
the
United
Way
helps
change
lives
when
these
agendas
agendas
help
children
succeed
in
school
help.
People
with
special
needs
find
industry,
interesting
employment
and
help
the
homeless
secure.
Lodging
we
all
win.
The
United
Way
supports
more
than
180
much-needed
services
in
our
community
and
without
our
support.
Their
future
is
not
guaranteed
for
just
$2
$2
per
pay.
C
The
price
of
a
coffee
city
employees
can
change
lives
for
the
better
and
it
couldn't
be
easier.
Today
we
are
holding
a
pledge
blitz
across
city
facilities.
We
encourage
employees
to
stop
and
take
a
few
minutes
to
fill
out
a
pledge
form
from
their
United
Way
representatives
or
online.
If
you
already
give
consider
increasing
your
pledge
for
this
year,
thank
you
for
helping
to
make
a
difference
in
our
community.
Merci
beaucoup.

Merci,

D
D
Welcome
Rainer
and
it's
great
I
should
acknowledge.
There
are
lots
of
family
members
and
friends
in
the
audience.
So
this
is
one
of
these
meetings
that
is
bittersweet
in
many
ways,
because
some
of
our
friends
who
have
been
here
a
long
time
are
leaving
office.
So
it's
a
wonderful
gathering
of
family
friends
and
supporters
from
your
community.
So
thank
you
very
much
for
taking
the
time
to
be
with
us
and
celebrate
their
achievements.
D
Councillor
blow
us
has
been
serving
our
community
in
a
variety
of
capacities
for
more
than
two
decades
and
was
first
elected
to
gloucester
council
in
1994.
Now
I
think
he
remembers
this.
The
very
first
time
I
had
the
opportunity
to
meet
Rainer
was
that
we
were
battling
market
value
assessment.
He
was
for
it.
D
I
was
against
it
and
I
I
said:
who
is
this
guy
Rainer
blow
us
and
you
won,
he's
also
been
involved
at
the
volunteer
level
with
a
number
of
organizations
within
his
community
for
many
many
years
before,
being
elected,
he's
been
an
avid
supporter
and
defender
of
OC
Transpo
and
one
of
council's
most
regular
users
of
this
service.
He
was
also
co-chair
of
the
2017
task
force
that
will
next
year
release
it's
very
exciting
and
dynamic
plans
for
Canada's
hundred
and
fiftieth
birthday
in
2017.
D
Today,
we're
presenting
council
herb
Louis
with
a
landscape
photo
of
a
marshy
area
between
the
mainland
and
Petrie
Island,
taken
at
dawn,
which
I
know
is
a
whole
special
meaning
for
Council
herb
Louis.
Thank
you,
Rainer
for
your
years
of
service.
We
wish
you
the
very
best
in
the
next
chapter
of
your
life.
F
Seriously
I
wasn't
gonna,
say
anything.
The
original
plan
was
I,
know
where
the
exit
is
I,
know
how
to
head
out
of
here
and
I
know.
I
know
when
it's
time
to
go
and
it's
the
right
time
to
go
interesting
enough.
I
know
this
picture
well,
I've
paddled
around
there,
but
never
at
that
time
of
the
day.
So
little
too
early
for
me,
I
really
didn't
prepare
any
notes.
I
I
didn't
really
want
to
say
anything
but
I'd
be
remiss
I
would
regret
it
if
I
didn't
say
anything
20
years.
F
Could
look
back
at
some
of
the
things
that
we
did
do
and
didn't
do
and
everything
else
and
I
must
admit
I
could
talk
about.
I
could
use
a
Machiavellian
quote
that
I
used
when
I
first
met
you
here
at
Regional
Council
about
taking
risks,
making
change.
That's
not
the
right
time
to
say
that
quote
now
it
would
have
been
profound.
I
could
talk
about
things,
decisions
that
we
did
at
council
I.
F
F
F
My
kids
got
a
better
education
than
me
better
career
path
than
me.
That
means
they
won't
be
doing
politics
they're
well
on
their
way.
So
you
know
those
things
are
all
good.
I
look
at
the
future
for
this
city
and
I
think
it's
a
solid
future.
The
future
for
this
city
is
great.
Our
forefathers
put
together
a
foundation
that
we've
been
building
on
LRT
is
one
of
those
building
blocks
Lansdowne
as
a
building
block.
What
we're
doing
to
the
river
those
are
all
building
blocks.
Looking
forward.
There
are
more
things
we
new
mr.
F
mayor,
I
know
we
had
a
chat
about
how
we
linked
the
two
sides
of
the
river.
Together
we
have
three
levels
of
government
or
three
different
governments.
My
dream
was
for
2017
to
see
the
two
sides
linked
with
a
an
aerial
transit
system,
an
aerial
cable
car
that
links
plastic,
curry
with
lebreton
flats.
The
two
transit
systems
instead
of
running
empty
buses
past
each
other
during
peak
hours
every
day,
I,
don't
know
if
that'll
ever
happen.
F
It
may
take
some
partnership
with
the
NCC,
but
that'll
be
in
your
hands,
so
I
would
be
remiss
if
I
didn't
sink
a
whole
bunch
of
people
and-
and
you
know,
and
I'll
start
off
with
mr.
Kirkpatrick
Kent
thanks
a
lot,
always
supportive
senior
staff
city
staff,
my
own
staff,
you
know
you're
only
as
good
as
your
office
staff
and
they've
been
they've,
been
there
with
me.
I've
still
had
the
same
office
person
from
1994.
You
won't
see
her
around
here
much,
but
she
still
works
with
me.
F
So
that's
a
good
one
too,
my
colleagues,
those
who
are
staying
good
luck
in
your
endeavors,
those
who
are
leaving
all
the
best
for
your
future
travels
and
trails
and
the
new
ones
coming
in
good
luck,
there's
a
learning
curve,
but
you'll
learn
it
you'll
do
well
I'm
optimistic
about
the
people
coming
in
I.
Think
they're,
it's
a
great
crop.
It's
a
great
crew.
Coming
in.
F
F
D
D
Councillor
Clark
has
more
than
three
decades
of
experience
in
municipal
politics
and
has
served
our
community
as
in
a
number
of
roles,
including
mayor
of
the
township
of
Cumberland,
first
elected
chair
of
the
Regional
Municipality
of
Ottawa
Carleton
and
now
as
a
city
councillor
for
the
City
of
Ottawa.
His
attention
to
the
bottom
line
and
detail
has
been
one
of
his
trademarks.
His
work
to
redefine
the
LRT
route
allowed
us
to
pass
the
plan
within
its
1.2
billion
dollar
allocated
budget,
and
for
this
we're
truly
appreciative.
G
I
was
going
to
have
to
burden
council
to
make
a
few
remarks.
I've
only
got
a
10
minute
speech,
so
get
comfortable.
Actually
rain
or
blow
spoke
for
long
enough
that
all
the
rest
of
us
are
going
to
be
a
relief
and
I.
Think
of
my
first
meeting
with
Kent
in
the
chairs
board
room
at
the
region.
You
remember
that
too.
Don't
you
anyway,
that's
where
he
first
found
out
that
I
like
a
lot
of
fun
1982,
is
when
I
first
got
involved
as
Reeve
of
Cumberland.
Halfway
through
that
term,
it
became
called
mayor.
G
So
I
was
the
first
mayor
of
Cumberland,
the
last
Reeve,
the
first
elected
chair
of
the
region
and
amazing
that
what
kind
of
trouble
you
can
get
into
with
those
kind
of
jobs,
I
didn't
start
out
life.
Thinking
about
this
I
actually
wanted
to
be
an
accountant
and
I,
probably
might
have
been
happier,
but
she
looked
from
1982
I
counted
up
the
number
of
different
councils.
I
sat
on
that
includes
eight
years
as
as
mayor
/,
Reeve
of
Cumberland
and
Regional
Council
at
the
same
time.
So
that
comes
with
a
total
of
22
different
councils.
G
So
I've
met
a
lot
of
elected
people
and
by
and
large
they're
the
most
dedicated
people
you
want
to
meet.
This
group
is
the
most
collegial
the
most
collaborative
and
the
most
dedicated
to
achievement
of
mutual
goals
of
any
council
I've
ever
set
on
this
council
deserves
a
lot
of
congratulations
for
the
work
it
accomplished
and
for
the
way
it
got
accomplished.
A
lot
of
people
say
there
wasn't
enough
fire
and
brimstone
during
the
meetings.
Well,
frankly,
yet
that's
not
necessarily
the
way
you
get
things
done.
G
G
I,
look
forward
to
enjoying
some
other
activities
now
and
I
look
forward
to
watching
the
new
newbies
get
I,
guess
we'd,
call
that
baptism
of
blood
or
something
like
that.
I
wish
them
all.
Well,
thank
you
to
staff
for
getting
things
done
much
as
I
always
thought
you
could
do
them
faster
and
Steve
for
providing
a
a
whipping
boy
that
was
good
and
Miriam
you're.
The
best
treasurer
had
ever
existed
thanks
all.
D
Counselor
Diane
Holmes
has
more
than
three
decades
of
experience
and
municipal
politics
having
first
been
elected
to
City
Council
in
1982,
for
what
was
then
called
Wellington
warrant.
Since
that
time,
she's
dedicated
she's
been
dedicated
to
many
community
and
citywide
priorities
and
has
maintained
a
strong
interest
in
planning
the
environment,
transportation,
culture,
health
services,
women's
issues
and
steadfast
support
for
the
GLBT
community.
Her
advocacy
for
the
poor
and
those
that
otherwise
don't
have
a
voice
is
legendary
in
our
city.
D
Her
work
to
promote
equality
and
diversity
inside
and
outside
of
City
Hall
is
to
be
commended.
Today
we
are
presenting
councillor
Holmes
with
a
photo
of
the
view
of
the
court
town
footbridge
in
the
fall,
something
that
she
fought
for
extremely
hard
Diane.
Thank
you
very
much
for
three
decades
of
dedication
and
commitment
to
your
city.
B
B
The
council's
over
the
years
they
have
been
supportive
and
helpful
in
maintaining
a
downtown,
that's
alive
and
vital
and
interesting
for
residents,
as
well
as
tourists,
of
course.
So
thank
you
to
everybody
for
the
help.
You've.
Given
me
all
those
years,
I
really
appreciate
it
and
it
couldn't
have
done
it
without
all
the
assistance
from
everybody.
Thanks.

D
Councillor
Hobbs
was
elected
as
the
councillor
for
kitchen
sippy
Ward
in
the
2010
municipal
election.
During
her
time
in
office,
she
was
dedicated
to
serving
her
community
together
with
councillor
blowers.
She
co-chaired
our
2017
task
force
and
was
a
strong
advocate
to
ensure
that
the
arts
community
was
fully
integrated
into
the
plans.
D
Councillor
Hobbs
has
also
had
a
strong
record
of
community
service
through
volunteerism
and
as
an
advocate
for
the
Arts
citizens
for
safe
cycling
and
heritage
Ottawa,
she
also
saw
more
CDP's
in
her
ward
than
anywhere
else
and
had
ottawa's
first
complete
Street
constructed
Churchill
Avenue.
Additionally,
she
actively
invested
parkland
funds
into
revitalizing
many
of
the
parks,
an
award
that
had
been
neglected
for
many
years
today.
D
We're
presenting
councillor
Hobbs
with
a
photo
of
Winston
Square
Park
between
the
piggy
market
and
the
westboro
Legion
on
Richmond
Road,
the
black
and
white
photo
prominently,
shows
the
outdoor
black
and
white
furniture
in
this
square.
The
first
urban
square
built
onto
a
street
of
its
kind
in
Ottawa,
Thank,
You,
councillor
Holmes,.
H
Thank
you
so
much
mayor,
Watson,
Thank,
You
Roger.
For
that
shot.
It's
absolutely
beautiful.
It
reminds
me
of
when
you
know
we're
having
a
lot
of
trouble
constructing
this
square,
but
there
was
a
lot
of
challenges
and
a
whole
group
came
up
and
a
group
of
planners
from
North
America
and
wanted
to
see
the
square
and
it
was
in
under
construction.
But
one
of
the
main
questions
they
had
was:
how
are
you
able
to
get
Park
money
to
use
to
build
a
park
on
a
city
street?
H
H
Amongst
other
things,
the
mayor
mentioned
Churchill
Avenue,
the
first
complete
Street
in
Ottawa.
It
has
raised
and
segregated
cycling
lanes
and
it
will
be
the
model
for
other
complete
streets
in
the
city,
so
I'm
incredibly
proud
of
some
of
our
firsts
and
catch
asipi.
Some
of
our
incredible
accomplishments
in
the
city
which
I
was
able
to
take
part
in
light
rail
is
one
of
those
and
the
co-chairing.
H
The
2017
committee
was
just
such
a
pleasure
in
an
honor
as
well
as
sitting
on
transit
and
planning
and
for
a
while
I
was
on
community
and
Protective
Services.
So
I
can't
thank
the
city
enough
I
think
my
journey
here.
I,
don't
want
to
talk
too
long.
I
don't
want
to
talk
Reiner's
time,
but
I
I
think
my
journey
here
started
when
I
was
in
Ethiopia
for
a
year
in
2002
that
city
that
I
lived
in
lacked
a
lot
of
things
like
sewers,
roads,
electricity,
healthcare,
water.
H
So
it
sort
of
took
me
on
my
journey
to
to
try
and
do
things
for
my
city
and
I
ended
up
in
Council,
which
this
for
years
has
been
an
incredible
opportunity
and
adventure
and
and
allowed
me
the
opportunity
to
make
mark
on
the
city
and
I'm
very
proud
of
that.
I
just
want
to
say
thank
you
so
much
to
all
the
staff
amazing.
H
My
my
start
in
this
role
was
the
convent
and
I
had
so
much
senior
staff
out
in
support
and
helping
me
with
that
incredible
issue
that
that
had
dominated
kitchen
sibian
still
tends
to
affect
Coach
asipi,
but
I
can't
thank
you
enough
for
all
of
that.
Marian
you've
been
mentioned,
and
you
were
very
helpful
in
that
and
Rick
Steve
Nancy.
Thank
you
so
much
Kent
you're,
an
amazing
city
manager,
Thank
You,
mayor
Watson.
This
job
would
not
have
been
anywhere
near
as
fun
and
amazing
and
interesting.
If
it
wasn't
for
marijuana.
H
If
people
think
that
the
mayor
doesn't
make
a
difference,
the
mayor
makes
a
very
big
difference.
He's
made
a
difference
for
all
of
us
on
council.
It
has
made
it
just
incredible
and
so
full
of
admiration
for
you
and
I'm
so
happy
to
have
worked
alongside
you,
a
great
person
and
so
funny
and
so
much
energy,
and
whenever
I
was
like
going
to
four
or
five
engagements
in
a
Saturday,
I'm
thinking,
okay,
I'm,
tired
but
Watson's
at
16
I
know
we
said
16
today
and
everywhere.
H
I
went
think
of
well
the
mayor's
already
been
here,
so
that
was
frustrating
yet
quite
incredibly,
he
always
bought
the
best
baked
goods
first,
okay,
really
now
I
am
exceeding
my
time.
I
just
want
to
thank
you
so
much
to
everyone
to
kitch
asipi
to
the
media.
You
you
do
just
as
hard
a
job
as
we
do.
You
have
to
go
to
all
these
committee
meetings
and
council
meetings
and
that's
tough
and
really
appreciate
all
you
do
and
all
my
colleagues
been
a
real
pleasure.
H
D
Thank
You
counselor
Hobbs,
our
next
recipient
is
counselor
Maria
McCray,
representing
River
warrant.
If
councillor
McCrae
could
come
and
join
us
and
it's
great
to
have
councillor
McRae's,
mom
and
dad
with
us
today
and
her
husband
and
friends,
and
your
dad
was
telling
me
Maria.
This
is
the
11th
year
they've
been
here
for
this
council
meeting,
so
it's
great
to
have
them
with
us
all
the
way
from
Sudbury
councillor
McRae
has
extensive
experience
of
municipal
politics
having
served
our
city
since
2003
when
she
was
first
elected
city
councillor
for
River
Ward.
D
Prior
to
her
role
of
municipal
politics,
councillor
McRae
was
very
involved
in
the
community
in
a
volunteer
capacity.
She
was
a
strong
advocate
for
community
facility
upgrades,
whether
it
was
the
beautiful
New
Reno,
rowing
club
or
The
Hunt
Club,
a
Riverside
Community
Center
expansion,
which
is
just
an
amazing
addition
to
that
great
facility
in
the
south
end
during
her
term
on
city
council,
she
has
worked
hard
for
the
residents
of
River
Ward
and
residents
throughout
the
city.
As
chair
of
the
Environment
Committee,
she
was
a
tireless
advocate
for
waste
diversion
and
recycling.
D
Now
you
weren't
supposed
to
laugh
at
that
point.
This
is
this
is
a
project
that
obviously
received
a
fair
amount
of
attention,
but
councillor
McRae
was
relentless
in
her
desire
to
not
only
get
to
the
bottom
of
the
challenges,
but
also
to
get
the
bridge
built
and
just
in
a
few
days
on
Saturday,
we
officially
dedicate
that
bridge,
which
really
is
quite
beautiful,
as
you'll
see
in
the
photo
in
just
a
moment
councillor
on
behalf
of
your
colleagues
and
the
staff
and
the
residents
of
the
City
of
Ottawa.
E
Hello,
everybody
bozo
Lamarr.
Thank
you
very
much.
Mr.
mayor
I
was
saying
to
Kent
to
actually
have
you
turn
around
and
say
how
much
you
love
the
design
in
that
bridge
was
part
of
the
list
of
things
we
had
to
get
done.
So
a
third-party
review
was
difficult
enough,
but
I
think
getting
you
on
board
was
even
more
difficult
than
that
for
people
who've
ever
served
in
public
office.
They
will
know
that
this
is
probably
one
of
the
best
jobs
you'll
ever
ever
have
in
your
whole
entire
life
and,
in
short,
mr.
E
mayor
I,
think
that
we
can
all
say
City
Hall
rocks,
but
mr.
mayor
I
have
rocked
City
Hall,
so
I
want
to
say
three
things
before
I
go.
First
of
all,
I
want
to
say
thank
you.
I
want
to
start
off
by
thanking
the
staff
in
our
office.
We've
had
incredible
people
work
in
our
office
right
down
to
our
summer
student
Andrew
dekap,
who
is
actually
coming
back
to
see
the
bridge
open
from
Queens,
which
is
amazing,
certainly
want
to
thank
city
of
Ottawa's
staff
and
I.
Look
around
this
table
and
I.
E
Think
of
the
amazing
people.
I've
worked
with
and
collectively
I
couldn't
imagine,
a
greater
talent,
pool
and
I
look
at
the
things
that
we've
done
either
together
with
other
groups,
and
the
footprint
of
this
city
is
so
large
that
when
you
look
at
what
we've
accomplished
in
short
periods
of
time,
it's
simply
amazing.
I
definitely
want
to
thank
my
City
Council
colleagues
of
all
three
terms
in
office.
Certainly,
we've
done
a
lot
of
things
together
and
certainly
laughed
a
lot,
and
one
of
the
reporters
this
morning
was
asked
me
about
some
funny
moments
and
I.
E
Think
I'd
be
remiss
mr.
mayor
if
we
didn't
always
include
Jan
harder
and
some
of
those
funny
moments
from
my
first
budget
meeting
when
we
were
yelling
at
each
other
across
the
horseshoe
up
until
I
used
to
call
her
every
email,
I
would
get
where
someone
would
be
upset,
I
call
her
and
I'd
say:
oh,
my
goodness,
Jan
this
person
is
mad
about
this
and
she'd
always
say
how
many
people
live
in
a
river,
Ward,
I'd,
say
fifty
thousand
and
how
many
wrote
you
an
email
one?
What
does
that
tell
you?
E
Well,
there's
one
person,
who's
upset
and
she'd
get
mad
and
we'd.
Do
it
all
over
again,
so
I
want
to
acknowledge
council
and
the
beautiful
notes
that
you've
sent
me
the
BBM
is.
The
messages
are
just
unbelievable
from
council
colleagues,
what
I
also
thank
the
groups
that
we've
worked
with
over
the
years
sponsors.
It's
unbelievable.
How
generous
the
city
is,
we'd
have
an
event
and
you
could
get
trucks
to
bring
the
stuff
in
with
door
prizes
they
give,
and
certainly
volunteers
and
I
absolutely
want
to
thank
members
of
our
media
Corps,
who
we
work
with.
E
E
Merricks
is
segwayed
is
saying:
we've
done
many
things
together
at
this
council.
Big
and
small
you've
mentioned
them
in
your
opening,
whether
it's
celebrating
the
opening
of
a
crosswalk,
that's
actually
going
to
change
lives
in
a
community.
To
celebrating
the
opening
of
our
awesome
bridge
that
we're
going
to
do
on
Saturday
and
everything
in
between
lands
down
light
row,
we
could
talk
for
hours
about
the
great
accomplishments
of
this
council
and
Michael
Ignatieff
has
said
recently.
If
you
go
into
politics,
unless
you
love
it,
you
can't
do
it.
Well
and
I
think
mr.
E
E
And
the
first
thing,
I
always
say
is
remember
how
you
got
here
that
the
residents
put
you
here
not
for
an
agenda
that
you're
bringing
not
for
some
stakeholder
agenda
but
because
they're
your
bosses,
so
when
they
call
you
listen
when
they
invite
you
to
come
to
a
meeting
you
go
and
I
think
it
goes
without
saying
that
that's
the
number
one
job
I
certainly
have
fun.
I
have
had
so
much
fun
in
this
job.
E
I
found
a
newspaper
article
written
a
year
after
I
was
in
office,
and
the
headline
was
the
most
exciting
year
of
my
life
and
I
can
tell
you.
There
were
some
days
that
I
would
drive
down
Bronson
Avenue,
so
happy
to
get
to
the
office
that
I
wouldn't
dry.
My
hair
some
days,
maybe
he's
just
like
I,
have
to
go
to
work.
I
will
admit:
I
got
one
speeding
ticket
which
I
paid
promptly.
E
E
Sometimes,
if
there's
a
challenge
or
a
crisis
in
your
ward,
it
could
be
going
to
another
evening
meeting
in
February
when
it's
the
cold,
and
you
really
don't
want
to
go
because
you've
been
out
every
night
that
week
and
you
have
stuff
to
do
at
six
o'clock
the
next
morning,
but
you
certainly
want
to
work
hard.
So,
mr.
mayor,
it's
been
a
great
honor,
a
privilege
to
serve.
E
D
Well,
thank
you
very,
very
much
counselor
our
deputy
clerk
Leslie
where's
Leslie
over
there.
She
said
six
months
ago.
This
is
the
kiss
and
cry
meeting
and
she
was
right:
Thank
You,
counselor
McRae.
Our
next
recipient
is
councillor
Peter
Hume,
who
represents
Alta
Vista
ward
of
councillor.
Hume,
could
come
forward
at
this
time.
B
D
Councillor
Hume
has
been
serving
our
city
and
the
Alta
Vista
Canterbury
community.
For
more
than
two
decades
he
was
first
elected
as
the
city
councillor
in
1991
and
served
on
the
Regional
Council
for
Ottawa
Carleton.
As
chair
of
the
Planning
Committee,
he
was
masterful
in
shepherding
the
Official
Plan
through
counsel
and
was
instrumental
in
expanding
recycling
in
our
city.
D
Councillor
Hume
is
an
active
member
of
his
community
sponsoring
and
participating
many
new
and
exciting
projects
and
events,
whether
it's
the
tree
planning
to
deal
with
that
terrible
emerald,
ash,
borer
or
speed
limit
initiatives
that
have
been
the
envy
of
every
other
Ward
in
the
city.
It
was
also
an
effective
leader
at
the
provincial
level,
serving
several
terms
as
president
of
the
association
of
municipalities
of
Ontario
that
are
known
as
a
mow
and
co-signing
the
historic
upload'
agreement,
a
municipal
provincial
framework
that
has
benefited
our
city
tremendously.
D
Today
we
are
presenting
councillor
Hume
with
a
photo
of
the
east
end
of
the
Aberdeen
Pavilion
at
Lansdowne
Park
facing
the
Rideau
Canal.
This
was
a
project.
Many
of
you
know
that
Peter
was
personally
involved
in
to
save
the
Aberdeen
pavilion
and
then,
as
fate
would
have
it
several
decades
later.
He
was
instrumental
in
moving
the
Lansdowne
Park
redevelopment
process
through
to
ensure
that
we
maximize
the
amount
of
green
space
and
the
preservation
of
the
horticultural
building
and
the
Aberdeen
pavilion
Peter.
I
Well,
thank
you
very
much
mayor
Watson.
It's
it's
interesting.
23
years,
I've
had
a
good
run,
I've
had
a
really
really
good
run
and
I
can
say
mayor
Watson
that
you
know
if
I
think
back
there.
You
know
in
in
that
run.
There
have
been
some
really
great
great
achievements,
and
you
know
it's
kind
of
interesting
that
you've
been
at
the
center
of
them
in
all
of
those
times.
I
We
first
got
elected
in
1991,
and
our
first
project
together
was
the
Aberdeen
Pavilion
and
Jim
at
the
time,
was
much
more
confident
than
that
I
was
I
was
newly
elected.
This
was
this
was
wasn't
really
involved
in
a
lot
of
politics,
certainly
not
like
the
mayor
was,
and
I
was
consumed
with
with
worry
about
being
a
one-term
ER
I
didn't
want
to
be
a
one-term,
ER
and
Jim
said
forget
about
that.
Let's
do
this
a
birdie
pavilion
and
we
won't
have
to
worry
about
that
and
of
course
he
was
right.
I
He
went
on
to
be
the
mayor
of
Ottawa
and
I
came
to
Regional
Council,
where
I
met,
Canton
and
other
talented
individuals,
and
you
know
I
was
pleased
to
be
on
Kent
Styron
panel
when
Kent
became
the
the
city,
manager
and
I
think
we
would
all
agree
that
it
was
one
of
the
well
I
will
tell
you.
It
was
one
of
the
best
decisions
that
that
I
ever
made
as
a
councillor
and
when
the
mayor
and
my
paths
cross
again,
he
was
the
minister
of
municipal
affairs.
I
Together
we
have
reshaped
planning
in
in
the
City
of
Ottawa
and
laid
a
framework
that
I
believe
will
be
a
benefit
to
growth
in
in
the
city,
and
it
will
be
transformative
in
the
way
our
city
grows,
and
so
those
three
major
accomplishments
mara
I've
always
been
pleased
that
you've
been
a
partner
and
at
the
center
of
them.
But
I
would
ask
you
to
do
one
more
thing
for
the
citizen.
Oh,
you
do
a
tremendous
amount,
but
the
last
four
years
you
have
taken
a
keen
interest
in
urban
planning
in
urban
design.
I
You
have
worked
tirelessly
to
raise
the
bar
and
I
would
ask
you,
on
behalf
of
the
planning
committee
that
has
just
had
its
final
meeting,
that
you
continue
that
strong
interest,
because
it's
with
that
interest
and
it's
not
something
that
other
mayors
have
been
interested
in
I
will
tell
you
quite
quite
honestly.
But
what
that
has
given
to
your
planning
committee
and
your
planning
department
is
an
incredible
sense
of
purpose
and
it
has
allowed
the
department
to
be
what
it
wants
to
be
and
what
it
is
always
wanted
to
be.
I
So
that's
incredibly
important
and
I
think
that
your
department
and
your
new
planning
committee
and
your
new
planning
chairman
will
be
able
to
make
that
step.
Take
the
next
steps
in
transforming
that
city,
but
that
will
only
happen
with
your
continued
strong
support.
So
I
would
implore
you,
on
my
behalf,
to
continue
the
great
leadership
that
you
have
exercised
in
urban
planning,
because
I
think
your
next
four
years
will
be
better
than
your
past
four
years.
You've
been
a
tremendous
advocate
for
planning
and
urban
development.
We
thank
you
now,
but
I
think.
I
If
you
continue
that
rule
as
I
know,
you
will,
the
city
will
be
ever
more
grateful
and
ever
more
transformative
and
there
will
be
a
chapter
not
about
light
rail
and
not
about
great
management,
but
about
urban
planning
in
the
history
of
Ottawa.
That
will
bear
your
name
and
I
think
that
that
is
an
incredible
legacy
for
you
and
for
the
city
motto
so
mayor.
Thank
you
for
for
all
of
that
dedication.
I
could
thank
a
lot
of
people,
but
there's
two
people
that
I
haven't
thanked
that
aren't
here
with
me
today.
I
Sorry
I
have
a
little
I
was
away
and
got
a
little
bit
of
a
cold.
My
daughter
Helen
and
my
wife
Ann
Marie.
You
don't
often
realize
you
thank
them,
and
you
say
that
they're
involved
and
you
know
they're
very
supportive,
but
it's
not
often
that
you
know
how
supportive
they
actually
are.
You
know
it's
not
uncommon.
You
try
to
get
away
and
say
hi
Andrew
you're,
my
wife.
Let's
get
reacquainted,
you
know
you're
out
every
night
as
counsel
McCray
said
you
know,
and
I
will
tell
you
that
this
job
never
lets
you
get
away.
I
You
know
there
have
been
members
of
the
legal
department
who
have
you
know
you're
trying
to
get
off
a
cruise
ship
to
go
to
a
beach
and
they're
saying
you
got
to
get
to
some
Wi-Fi
because
I,
we
need
we're
heck
we're
in
settlement
talks
with
this
developer
and
we
need
your
input.
Well.
You
know
your
wife
goes
to
the
beach
and
you
go
to
find
some
Wi-Fi
so
that
you
can
keep
connected
and
you
know
they
don't
they
don't
get
angry.
I
They
don't
say
you
know,
that's
bad
they're
they're,
just
supportive,
because
they
know
that
that's
what
you
you
want
to
do
for
those
of
you
who
know
Helen
Helens
a
budding
ski
racer
and
I
was
very
lucky.
For
the
first
time,
I
was
able
to
take
her
on
a
to
a
a
national
ski
race.
So
it's
quite
proud.
As
as
I
was,
we
were
in
Panorama
British,
Columbia
and
you're
on
the
side
of
a
mountain
and,
of
course,
as
I
was
ought
to
do.
I
I
carried
my
blackberry
with
me,
we're
in
the
middle
of
the
race,
and
my
blackberry
goes
off
it's
actually
my
phone
I
pick
up
my
phone
and
I
said.
Listen.
Can
you
give
me
five
minutes
we're
in
the
middle
of
something
here
and
they
said
no.
We
can't.
We
really
actually
need
to
talk
to
you
right
now.
So
I
turned
my
back
and
I
give
the
person
at
the
end
of
the
line
five
minutes.
Well,
maybe
it
was
ten
only
to
turn
back
and
to
see
Helen
and
four
of
her
colleagues
have
already
raised
by.
I
Actually
we're
going
to
be
able
to
go
here
and
not
have
to
worry
about,
what's
happening
back
here,
so
for
them,
I
thank
them
for
all
of
their
support
and
for
what
they
have
done
and
allowed
me
to
do
what
I
have
done
for
23
years.
You
know
I've
loved
every
minute
of
it,
but
I'm
certain
that
I
will
love
every
minute
after
it.
So
thank
you
very
much.
D
D
Don't
know
what
it
is
about
this
side
of
the
horseshoe.
Everyone
seems
to
be
leaving
on
that
side
except
Rayner,
always
the
lone
wolf
right
Rainer.
Thank
you
very
much
counsel
you.
Our
next
recipient,
is
councillor
Doug
Thompson,
representing
Osgood
ward.
If
councillor
Thompson
could
come
and
join
us.
D
Councillor
Thompson
has
brought
a
wealth
of
municipal
experience
to
his
role
with
the
City
of
Ottawa,
he's
first
elected
to
City
Council
Ottawa
City
Council
in
2000,
in
addition
to
councillor
Thompson's
experience
with
the
City
of
Ottawa.
He
also
served
as
both
mayor
and
councillor
with
the
township
of
Osgood
and
was
the
last
mayor
of
the
township
of
Oscar.
D
C
C
C
If
Leslie
calls
and
she
says,
hi
counselor,
you're,
okay,
but
if
she
says
counselor
you're
in
for
a
bit
of
a
problem
and
I
know,
we've
had
a
few
disagreements
over
the
years,
but
very
few,
but
on
each
and
every
one
of
those
I
lost,
but
even
with
that,
I
just
want
to
present
you
with
this
bulk,
a
of
flowers
in
appreciation
of
the
support
that
you've.
Given
me
and
my
staff.
It's
much
appreciated.
C
I,
just
if
I
might
mr.
mayor
I,
just
I
I
received
an
email
late
last
night
and
it
do
you
mind
if
I
read
it.
Thank
you.
It
says,
dear
Doug,
congratulations
on
your
much
deserved
retirement.
Please
pass
this
message
on
to
mayor
Watson.
Please
ensure
councilor.
Thompson
has
a
day
named
in
his
honor.
I
should
have
received
that
respect,
but
unfortunately
it
never
happened.
Yours
sincerely,
Shannon
Tweed.
C
C
But
over
the
years
some
of
you
have
been
here
with
me
for
14
years.
Others
have
come
on,
but
you've
always
shown
a
great
deal
of
compassion,
kindness
and
outstanding
support
for
me
and
I.
Think
we
all
collectively
should
be
very
proud
of
the
accomplishments
that
we
have
made
for
our
residents
and
for
our
citizens.
You,
you
certainly
are
a
remarkable
group
of
men
and
women
apologize
to
the
men.
I
presented
each
of
the
ladies
with
a
little
flower
there,
but
I
didn't
think
you
guys
would
want
flowers
so.
C
Jennifer
Johnson
is
up
here
just
an
incredible
lady
matter
of
fact.
We
were
texting
back
and
forth.
I
think
it
was
9:30
last
night
she
was
picking
up
stuff
for
me
today
and
she
thought
it
was
going
to
be
a
slow
week
this
week,
but
we've
been
just
pouring
out
the
letters
and
and
sending
in
the
bills
to
Leslie
to
be
paid.
C
C
You
can
call
in
every
Monday
morning,
if
you
like,
so
I
may
do
that
Nick
Randall
right
here,
just
just
a
fabulous
person,
as
many
of
you
know,
I'm
not
too
high
an
IT
and
nick
has
been
a
great
asset
to
that
and
good
policy
advisor
and
appreciate
all
the
work
he's
done
in
supporting
me
and
our
residents
Karen
ferny.
Many
of
you
don't
know
her.
She
she's
relegated
to
the
mid-calf
office,
but
Karen's
stand
up.
So
people
do
see
you.
C
C
Different
facets
of
Osgoode
ward,
the
cadets
I
know:
Leslie.
We
had
a
little
battle,
one
time
about
funding,
cadets
and
I
won
that
one
I
think,
but
the
I
think
it's
C.
Is
it
951
CFB
Leitrim
cadets?
They
ran
into
some
major
difficulties
financially
and
a
place
to
go
and
I
helped
them
out
three
or
four
years
ago
and
they've
been
sort
of
nomads.
But
now
they've
found
a
home.
C
The
Osgood
Legion
has
taken
them
over
and
they
have
a
spot
in
Vernon
at
the
community
center
and
they
have
been
so
nice
to
me
because
of
the
little
bit
of
assistance
I
gave
to
them
every
place.
I
go
this
past
year,
they
have
said,
could
we
come
and
help
out,
and
so
I
thought
I
would
invite
them
here
today
here
they
are
so
stand
up.
C
There
are
other
people,
I
know,
I
know.
Mr.
mayor
I
got
that
evil
look,
but
I
won't
be
much
longer.
There
are
there
other
people
here
and
I,
just
a
few,
my
family,
you
wait,
you
get
it
later,
but
short
Holmes
is
here
with
his
wife
and
Stuart
and
I
go
way
back.
He
knew
me
when
I
was
3
years
old
and
he
taught
at
a
rural
school.
Just
next
to
the
house
that
we,
our
family,
lived
in
and
I
used
to
I
was
I
was
a
big
kid.
C
I
was
12
pounds
when
I
was
born,
I
was
ready
to
go
to
school
when
I
was
3,
so
I
will
walk
over
to
the
school
and
Stuart
would
be
very
kind,
but
he'd
turned
me
around
and
she
shoot
me
back
home.
But
thanks
for
coming
out
today,
Stuart
tom
and
Janet
Cavan
Tom
is
a
retired
firefighter
lives
in
Metcalfe
and
he
is
his
family.
Are
four
generations
of
firefighters,
some
with
the
city
and
other,
while
other
all
with
the
city,
volunteers
and
full-time,
so
Tom?
Thank
you
for
coming
out.
C
I
know:
there's
people
here:
Richard
garden
from
the
racetrack
and
Linda
and
Marcel
Mauss
Yann
great
supporters
live
in
Oscar,
Ward,
appreciate
your
coming
out
residents
and
the
media.
Often
joke
about
my
hats
and
I
know:
Sue
was
tweeting
back
and
forth
in
this
last
week.
I
wonder
what
had
he's
gonna
wear
today
and
I
I
I
do
have
a
hat,
I'm
gonna!
Wear
it
in
just
a
moment.
There's
hats
sitting
on
the
seats
there
and
I.
Don't
know
if,
if
you
people
are
brave
enough,
maybe
you'd
like
to
put
one
on.
C
C
He
was
the
former
fire
chief
and
Osgood
Ward
he's
now
a
fire
chief
and
Gananoque
way
and
I
I,
don't
know
Jerry
said
he
was
coming,
I,
don't
know
if
he's
here
or
not,
but
anyway,
this
hat
was
given
to
me
by
Jerry
just
from
thanking
me
for
helping
with
the
township
and
after
9/11
there
was
a
fundraiser
at
the
NACA
and
in
support
of
the
firefighters
from
New
York
City
and
just
on
a
whim.
I
was
going
out
the
door
and
I
said
Marilyn.
I'm
gonna
take
my
hat
with
me.
C
So
I
took
it
down
and
just
before
intermission
they
said
they
were
going
to
have
an
auction.
So
I
said
well.
Why
don't
you
take
this
up?
An
auction
off
and
Marilyn
and
I
had
another
engagements
we
had
leave
and
when
we
the
next
day,
Dwight
Eastman
stayed
and
he
called
me
up,
he
said
Doug,
you
won't
believe
it's
the
lady
from
Rockland
Park
paid
$3,500
for
the
hot
I
said.
That's
great
as
time
went
on.
C
This
lady
would
take
the
Hat
and
she
would
go
round
to
her
friends
in
her
area
and
for
five
hundred
dollars
a
pop.
They
would
get
their
picture
taken
with
this
hock
and
over
the
course
of
time
she
raised
over
16,000
dollars
just
with
this
hat.
So
in
total,
this
hat
raised
and
I
believe
the
money
always
went
to
the
fire
services
and
she
sent
me
a
really
nice
note
and
she
said:
Doug
I,
don't
want
any
anyone
to
know
I.
C
Did
this
I
don't
want
any
public
acknowledgment,
but
you
deserve
the
Hat
back,
and
so
this
is
a
hat.
That
means
a
great
deal
to
me.
I
think
it
means
a
great
deal
to
the
to
the
fire
service
as
well,
and
so
that's
one
of
the
reasons
that
I
put
on
funny
hats
to
know
miss
Hale.
You
have
a
hat
on
so
can
I
put
my
hat
on
while
I
finish:
okay,
oh
I,
better,
not
won't
fit!
Now.
C
I
would
also
like
to
acknowledge
George
Drew's,
counselor
Electro's,
good
ward
chosen
by
the
residents
to
represent
them
on
City
Council
George
is
excited
about
working
to
ensure
a
brighter
future
for
our
community
and
our
city
and
I.
Don't
know
why
people
like
them
so
much
he's
younger
he's
better-looking
I
am
he
speaks
three
languages?
What's
he
got
that
I
haven't
sure
the
opportunity
to
be
a
member
of
our
nation
city?
Capital
is
a
certainly
remarkable
honor
in
itself.
C
I
believe
Ottawa,
City
Council
has
held
in
high
esteem
by
our
residents
and
politicians
all
across
Canada
and
I'm
sure
that
the
2014-2018
City
Council
will
continue
to
be
admired
and
be
respected,
as
it
has
in
the
past.
My
decision
to
retire
after
31
years
was
probably
one
of
the
most
difficult
decisions
I
had
to
make
yet
I
know
that
the
time
is
right
and
now
I
love
the
opportunity
to
experience
new
initiatives,
interesting
challenges
and
the
opportunity
to
spend
more
time
with
my
family.
C
If
they
want
me
to
I
just
felt
very
quickly,
my
oldest
son
Jason
is
lives
in
Edmonton
works
in
Fort
McMurray,
and
so
he
couldn't
fly
in
for
today.
His
tutor
blonde
Dana
and
Brett
teenagers.
One
had
a
at
a
school
trip
today
and
wasn't
able
to
make
it
and
the
other
is
18
and
has
a
car.
So
I,
don't
think
he's
going
to
come
down
here.
C
Jared
second
son
is
here:
Aaron
is
wasn't
able
to
make
it
today,
but
they
have
three
children:
Tristan
will
who
are
both
in
school
and
Hanna.
It
was
just
a
little
munchkin,
but
we
we
we
could
up
to
a
hockey
game
on
Friday
night
and
or
was
it
Sunday
and
we're
going
out
to
another
one
on
Friday
night.
So
this
is.
This
is
what
it
is.
When
you're
slowing
down
in
politics
Ryan
is
back
in
Ottawa.
He
loves
it
here
now:
Thank
You
Jan.
C
He
he
worked
in
the
city
of
Calabasas
transportation,
planner,
but
he's
back
studying
for
his
doctorate.
Then
I
am
sure
he
will
enjoy
it
in
February
when
it's
about
minus
40
and
it's
20
and
in
Los
Angeles.
My
daughter,
Angela
is
here
of
all
the
children
believe
it
or
not.
She
was
60
minutes
away
from
getting
a
great
cop
ring.
She
was
with.
C
She
was
with
the
Edmonton
Oilers
and
they
went
to
the
game
seven
and
they
lost
in
Carolina
those
rats.
But
she
is
now
back
in
Ottawa
and
now
working
with
the
Pepsi
Canada
Shelley
where's
Shelley,
there's
Shelley.
She
has
little
Avery
there
with
her,
but
she
works
for
the
Ottawa
Art
Gallery
and
we're
very
pleased
with
all
the
work
that
she's
doing
on
behalf
of
that
organization.
For
the
city,
Jodie
and
Andre
are
here
with
Avery
and
Olivia
and
Avery
just
moved
back
with
his
with
his
parents
and
his
sister
to
Ottawa
and
so
now.
C
They're
pleased
to
be
here,
go
senators,
go
no
still
go
hats,
go
I
wanted
to
also
just
as
other
other
retirees
have
said,
that
I
wanted
to
take
a
minute
to
to
thank
Mary
Lynn,
who,
along
with
me,
has
experienced
the
ups
and
downs
of
political
life.
A
certainly
heartfelt
thank
you
to
you
being
part
of
a
political
family
requires
great
compassion,
dedication
and
a
keen
sense
of
community
spirit
and
I
know.
We've
had
some
exciting
times.
C
C
The
I
want
to
in
closing
I
want
to
say:
I
have
honestly
been
overwhelmed
by
the
kindness
and
the
heartfelt
words
of
appreciation,
all
the
plaques,
the
picture
today.
The
certificates
that
have
been
received
by
myself,
it's
just
uncredible,
can't
believe,
never
thought
it
would
ever
happen
and
I
will
forever
be
indebted
to
all
of
those
who
have
shown
their
support
to
me
and
in
these
last
few
months,
which
would
have
been
a
bit
difficult
for
for
me
to
pull
the
plug
in
and
move
away
because
I
enjoy
this
work.
C
D
D
Councillor
de
rush
was
first
elected
to
City
Council
in
2006
to
represent
it
represent
rather
the
newly
created
ward
of
Gloucester
self
Nepean
and
has
helped
Shepherd
one
of
the
fastest-growing
wards
in
our
city
in
2010.
He
was
appointed
deputy
mayor
by
his
colleagues
has
done
a
remarkable
job
together
with
Elias
interior
representing
the
city
at
hundreds
and
hundreds
of
events.
He
also
fought
hard
for
community
infrastructure
throughout
his
ward
and
was
an
advocate
for
the
many
veterans
in
our
city
during
his
accomplishments
or
among
his
accomplishments.
D
Councillor
to
rush
has
been
instrumental
in
championing
the
infrastructure
needs
of
this
rapidly
growing
region,
as
well
as
improved
transit
to
the
community.
Today,
we're
presenting
councillor
to
rush
with
a
photo
of
the
Vimy
memorial
bridge
and
fall
colours
in
remembrance
of
all
of
the
soldiers
who
fought
during
one
of
Canada's
greatest
and
most
important
battles,
the
Battle
of
Vimy
Ridge,
the
City
of
Ottawa,
recently
named
its
newest
bridge.
After
this
pivotal
military
victory.
D
As
of
November
8th,
the
bridge
connecting
stranded
drive
to
her
alarm,
strong
road
is
named
Vimy
memorial
bridge,
and
this
project
was
perhaps
his
most
important
project
infrastructure
project
over
the
term
of
council,
councillor
and
deputy
mayor.
Thank
you
very,
very
much
for
your
years
of
service
and
certainly
for
your
support.
As
deputy
mayor
over
the
last
four
years,
it's
been
a
remarkable
journey.
D
A
A
My
view
has
always
been
that
the
decisions
and
the
deliberations
that
we
make
here
today
are
for
Jack,
Bennett,
Max
and
Zoe,
and
we
need
to
continue
to
think
about
the
next
generation
and
and
not
necessarily
about
the
next
election
when
we
make
decisions
for
our
city
in
2006,
I
ran
I
think
for
the
right
reasons
to
push
a
local
project
forward
to
serve
our
community
and
over
the
last
eight
years,
I've
had
an
amazing
vantage
point
to
watch
our
city
grow
and
thrive.
Well:
cool
dear
Edith,
Mia,
honey.
She
put
the.
A
Delivered
a
large
number
of
key
infrastructure
projects
for
our
community
I'm,
very
proud
of
the
work
that
has
been
accomplished
during
my
Turner
as
counselor
for
Ward
22.
This
has
been
a
very
long
journey
and
my
warrant
is
very
large,
as
you
know,
stretching
from
Finley
Creek
to
borrow
havens.
Some
25
kilometers
and
my
ward
has
very
much
doubled
in
population
and
benefited
from
a
significant
amount
of
infrastructure
to
keep
up
with
the
growth.
A
I
am
very
proud
of
the
Vimy
memorial
bridge
and
all
the
investments
we've
made
in
that
very
important
transit
and
transportation
corridor,
and
my
ward
is
now
one
war.
That's
no
longer
East
Egg
in
West
Lake.
This
bridge
connects
two
very
important
communities
in
the
south
of
Ottawa
I'm
glad
to
see
that
the
bridge
is
being
well
used
by
many
families
and
many
residents,
it's
important
to
transit,
and
it's
also
important
for
the
local
business
and
it's
great
to
see
mr.
and
mrs.
Monty
on
here
from
Monte,
ons,
grocer's
and
I'm.
A
Sure
he'll
tell
you
how
much
the
bridge
has
benefited
his
business
we've
improved
our
transit
by
extending
the
Southwest
transit
wave,
which,
at
that
time
was
the
largest
transit
project
in
the
city.
We
built
new
Park
and
rides
for
families,
because
we
know
that
it's
critical
for
them
to
have
that
kind
of
flexibility
and
I
do
want
to
thank
my
colleague,
councilor
harder,
who
is
a
great
partner
in
helping
deliver
some
of
these
very
important
projects
in
our
community.
Looking
ahead,
mr.
A
mayor,
we
are
building
a
great
city,
one
that
is
worthy
of
the
status
as
a
nation's
capital.
I
want
to
thank
you,
mr.
mayor,
for
your
trust
and
your
confidence
to
serve
this
city.
As
deputy
mayor
I'd,
also
like
to
thank
mr.
Kirkpatrick
and
all
your
staff
for
your
support.
Over
the
years,
I
often
tell
residents
in
the
community
that
I'm
gonna
go
down
and
tell
mr.
Kirkpatrick
what
to
do.
The
reality
is
I'm,
usually
going
backing
begging
mr.
Kirkpatrick,
to
deliver
certain
things
for
our
community.
A
So
I
want
to
thank
you
for
you
and
your
staff
for
their
professionalism.
Their
dedication
to
our
city
I
also
want
to
thank
my
staff,
Alex
and
Andrea,
and
Anthony
and
Deana
Andrea
has
been
with
me
six
years,
and
it's
very
much
like
losing
my
right
arm
and
I
want
to
thank
the
staff
for
their
hard
work
and
supporting
me
and
supporting
the
residents
of
Gloucester
so
Nepean.
A
The
city
is
a
tremendous
offers,
a
tremendous
of
opportunity
for
so
many
people,
I
arrived
in
Ottawa
in
1988
as
a
page
in
the
House
of
Commons.
That
would
never
have
predicted
that
I
would
serve
the
city
I
loved,
as
deputy
mayor
I've,
always
stood
tall
for
my
community.
We
all
can't
live
in
the
Greenbelt.
We
need
to
continue
to
serve
infrastructure
needs
of
these
existing
communities
and
we
shouldn't
malign
it
and
call
it
sprawl.
I
do
not
live
in
sprawl.
A
B
A
The
next
city
council,
all
the
best,
with
their
work,
I've
spoken
to
a
large
number
of
communities
on
your
behalf
and
I
often
tell
tourists
when
they
come
to
the
city
that
we're
working
on
two
big
projects.
One
is
an
LRT
project
that
will
transform
our
city
and
the
second
big
project
is
a
Stanley
Cup
for
the
auditor
senators,
so
I'm
very
hopeful
that
will
be
delivered
as
well.
Both
tammini
just
with
okay
in.
A
I
believe
that
great
neighbors
make
great
neighborhoods
and,
as
JFK
reminds
us
of
those
who
much
is
given
much
is
required
and
our
family
is
going
to
continue
to
help
this
city
sort
of
thrive
and
I
want
to
thank
again
the
community
for
electing
me,
and
it
has
been
an
honor
and
a
privilege
to
serve
the
residents
of
the
city.
Here's
the
twins
here
coming
up
to
steal
the
show.

I

Pursuant
to
section

of
the

was
even
considered
a

bylaw
items
contained
in

79
items
6
to

of
the
agenda
and
that
the
rules
of

be
suspended
to
receive

The

entitled

as
this
report
will
be
considered
by
the
new
council
at
a
special
meeting
to
be
held
on
December
3rd
2014.
And
that
can
you
take
them
on
that
passage,
response
to
a
favor
on
canals.
D
D
D
Suzanne

D
Of
the
rules
of
procedure,
counselor
Clark
has
a
motion
dealing
with
lanes
and
we
need
to
suspend
the
rules
I'm
actually
not
going
to
support
suspending
the
rules,
because
this
item
was
directed
to
staff
and
in
fact
why
councillor
Clark
to
come
back
in
the
first
quarter
of
2015.
So
I
will
not
support
suspending
the
rules
because
it
would
basically
jump
the
queue
and
we
do
have.
A
council
resolution
approved
I
believe
unanimously
back
on
January
22nd
moved
by
Councillor
Clark
second
of
my
counselor
homes
on
the
issue
of
urban
lane.
C
B
Thank
you
very
much
mr.
mayor,
and
this
is
a
notice
of
motion
to
change
a
name
in
my
community,
a
straight-in
firm
back
lands,
but
this
would
therefore
be
resolved
for
this
motion.
Is
that
council
direct
snap
to
take
to
stop
the
steps
necessary
to
review
a
proposed
street
name
change
from
Avenue
fonder
to
Avenue,
Robert,
grant
and
report
back
to
planning
committee
and
council
by
the
end
of
January
2015?
So
that's
a
motion
recommendation.
Okay,
thank
you.
We'll
deal.
D
B
Thank
you,
Thank
You,
mr.
mayor.
It
is
a
notice
of
motion.
Basically,
therefore,
be
it
resolved
that
council,
upon
Derrick
moody
as
a
city,
risk
management,
official
and
risk
management
inspector
for
the
Peter
from
January
1st
2015,
until
June
1st
2015,
to
provide
an
opportunity
for
this
position
to
be
staff
on
a
permanent
basis
and
I
think
the
rest
of
it
is
lesyk.
Mr.
mayor,
okay,.
D
Thank
you,
Celso
else,
interior,
we'll
deal
with
that
at
the
next
meeting
of
council.
The
next
notice
of
motion
is
moved
by
myself
seconded
by
councillor
Elgin
Terry,
with
respect
to
the
city
manager,
employment
contract.
This
is
required
to
be
dealt
with
by
the
end
of
December
and
we'll
deal
with
this
item
at
that
time.
In
at
the
next
stair
council
meeting.
Are
there
any
other
notices,
a
motion.
