Ashbury College was founded in 1891 by George Penrose Woollcombe, an ambitious Oxford University graduate and a new Canadian, who served as Ashbury’s Headmaster for 42 years.

The three-room school for boys was originally located on Wellington Street in downtown Ottawa. In 1910, the school—called Ashbury College after Wooll-combe’s English home—moved to its current 13-acre location in the heart of Rockcliffe Park. With the support of Ottawa benefactors, a new building was constructed for the 115 students, 48 of whom were boarders.

More additions to the school in 1972 accommodated a student population of more than 300. In 1982, girls were enrolled for the first time in the senior school. The Heather Gillin Residence for girls was opened in 1999 to enhance Ashbury’s boarding program.

In fall 2004, a new dining room (named Maclaren Hall) a double gymnasium and four new classrooms were opened; a new boys’ residence was completed in September 2009.

Today, Ashbury has 175 boys and girls in the Junior School and 530 young men and women, 109 of whom are board-ing in the Senior School.

Beautiful heritage buildings, landmarks and events highlight Ottawa’s city centre, telling stories of its past while directing Ottawa’s present and future.

The name Ottawa is derived from the Algonquin word adawe, meaning “to trade”. The word refers to the indigenous peoples who used the river to trade, hunt, fish, camp and harvest plants, and other traditional activities. The first maps made of the area have the river named after these peoples.

While you explore Ottawa you’ll quickly notice that there are many promi-nent buildings that serve not only as directional landmarks for you, but also as important markers of history. The Parliament of Canada, for example, acts as the centerpiece of Ottawa while representing the heart of the country’s democratic government. Likewise, the Rideau Canal is a waterway that cuts through Ottawa’s downtown, and has nearly two centuries of stories to share. Check out the Bytown Museum at the Rideau Canal Locks to discover more of Ottawa’s history from its early days.

Canada is still a constitutional monarchy; every Governor General has resided at Rideau Hall since 1867. Rideau Hall is also home to a magnificent art collec-tion and is a worthwhile visit!

The Byward Market is Ottawa’s oldest neighbourhood. A short walk from the Parliament Buildings, the Market is an excellent pedestrian-friendly area boasting an array of shops and cafés.

Storytelling and the Questioning Life: Cultivating Empathy, Embracing Discomfort, Living for Change

ADRIAN HAREWOOD

Adrian Harewood is co-anchor of CBC Ottawa News. An Ottawa native, Adrian attended elementary and high school at Ashbury College, where he was the School Captain in 1989. He graduated from McGill University in Montreal with a degree in History and Political Science. He later became the station manager of the McGill campus/community radio station, CKUT-Radio McGill and was also involved in community radio at CKCU (Car-leton University), CHUO (University of Ottawa), and CKLN (Ryerson University).

He has also hosted the programs The Actors, Playwrights & Screenwriters and The Directors on BRAVO and PBS. Before coming to television, Adrian was the host of the daily drive-home show All In A Day on CBC Radio One in Ottawa.

There is power and wisdom to be found in stories and in questions. By opening ourselves to different ways of seeing and being we develop empathy. Embarking on this lifelong journey of discovery can help us to enlarge our humanity and heal our communities. Getting out of our comfort zones and embracing discomfort is how we become more human, human beings.

DAY 3: Indigenous Panel

PANELIST: SYTUKIE JOAMIE

Sytukie was born in a tent in Tuapait, outside of Pannirtuuq, Nunavut when Inuit lived in their camps. As an infant his family was relocated to Niaqunnguut, where his father’s parents had been relocated by the Department of Health. In the early years, they would travel by dog teams to their spring camps. On a trip into town, Sytukie and his father were confronted by an RCMP officer who shot and slaughtered their dog team. That was the end of their way of traveling by dog team.

When he was very young, his father was sent to a Toronto Sanatorium for TB and he drowned trying to swim; for a large part of his life, Sytukie was in pain for the loss of his father. Sytukie grew up in Niaqunguut and Iqaluit and in 2014 moved to Ottawa and now lives with his beloved granddaughter. He has two Inuit stepsons, who are proud to be Inuit.

His stepfather’s biological grandfather was one of the last to harvest a bow-head whale traditionally by himself. Sytukie was extensively involved in the planning of the Iqaluit 2011 bowhead hunt and was one the hunters. He has also been an offshore fisherman and was a chief negotiator to sell quotas to factory ship owners; he was called to testify as an individual to the Senate Fisheries Committee.

PANELIST: LUCAS LEBLANC

Let the journey begin!

There exists within everyone a grand passion, an outlandish thirst for adventure, a desire to live boldly

and vividly through the journey of life.
