Ottawa accident Carling Avenue: Cyclist Nathan Anderson suffers critical head injury.
Ottawa Accident Lawyer David Hollingsworth, www.ottawainjury.ca Ottawa cyclist Nathan Anderson was seriously injured yesterday afternoon when he was hit by an alleged drunk driver on Carling Avenue . The terrible Ottawa accident has left him with critical injuriesm possibly a brain injury, in an Ottawa hospital. Glen Carkner was charged with impaired driving and dangerous driving causing bodily harm in connection with the Ottawa accident. The cyclist, is a 31-year-old man, and it was rteported that he suffered critical head injuries. Nathan Anderson, remains in an hospital in critical but thankfully stable condition. My thoughts go out to his friends and family…
Carkner was arrested at the Ottawa accident scene by Ottawa police. Minutes earlier staff at the Hampton Park Plaza LCBO had seen him staggering into the LCBO, crashing into several signs and a guard rai. Trained LCBO staff refused to sell Carkner alcohol and called Ottawa police. Shortly there after, Carkner’s car struck the Ottawa cyclist just a few blocks away on Carling Avenue near Archibald Street.
What a terrible, avoidable accident ….

Ottawa Winterlude Schedule 2012, 2012 Winterlude Activities, Ottawa Personal Injury Lawyer David Hollingsworth
Ottawa’s NHL All Star Weekend Schedule, Ottawa lawyer David Hollingsworth
Posted by Ottawa Personal Injury Lawyer, Ottawa Accident Lawyer, David Hollingsworth in Ottawa Resources on January 26th, 2012
Ottawa Personal Injury Lawyer David Hollingsworth…I hope you are excited as I am to be participating in the NHL All Star weekend here in Ottawa. There is lots to do around Ottawa.
RIDEAU CANAL The world’s longest skating rink, suitably, will be the centre of many All-Star Weekend activities.
OPENING CEREMONIES tomorrow at 2:30 p.m.
The NHL All-star weekend kicks off with the Stanley Cup and several other of the league’s most prestigious trophies, including the Hart, travelling along the Rideau canal by sleigh. All are welcome to skate along with the procession, which begins at Waverly Street and ends at the Ottawa Convention Centre, where the trophies will be on display at Fan Fair.
NHL All Star fact: The last time the Stanley Cup was on the Rideau Canal was in 1905, when Harvey Pulford, a member of the Ottawa Silver Seven, drop-kicked the trophy into the water after some late-night partying.
ENERGIZER NIGHT SKATE
Friday, 7 p.m.
Participants will don headlamps as they skate a five-km route along the canal, with proceeds from the $20 (adults) and $15 (children under 12) registration fee going to the Sens Foundation’s plan to build 19 outdoor rinks in Ottawa. The event begins and ends at Waverly Street. Organizers are expecting more than 2,500 skaters for what they hope will become an annual event.
Many NHL all-stars, including Jason Spezza, will play shinny over the next few days with friends on one of Ottawa’s outdoor rinks.
JUNIOR SKILLS COMPETITION: Saturday, 9 a.m.-noon
Canadian Tire’s national skills competition for players seven to 12 years old — they are being flown in from around the country — takes place between Rideau Street and the Mackenzie King Bridge.
Did you know? Chicago Blackhawks captain — and NHL All-Star — Jonathan Toews helped co-found the Canadian Tire Hockey School, which runs the junior skills competition.
CASINO DU LAC-LEAMY” 1 Blvd. du Casino, Gatineau
FANTASY DRAFT:Thursday, 8 to 9:30 p.m.
The All-Star Game draft — two pre-selected captains will choose lineups like kids on an outdoor rink — will be a glitzy affair at the casino. This is a great opportunity to see NHL stars up close as they walk into the event.
NHL All Star fact: Last year, Toronto Maple Leafs’ Phil Kessel was picked last in the draft. But he got a decent consolation prize — a new car, and a $20,000 donation to a charity of his choice.
OTTAWA CONVENTION CENTRE 55 Colonel By Dr.
NHL FAN FAIR: Thursday, 3-10 p.m., Friday, 10 a.m.-10 p.m., Saturday, 10 a.m.-6 p.m.
All three floors of Ottawa’s grand new convention centre will be transformed into a giant hockey theme park. The actual time of player appearances for autographs sessions is still being worked out, but here’s a look at some of the activities lined up for Fan Fair:
- Pose with the Stanley Cup as well as other NHL trophies;
- Meet former NHL stars at autograph signings;
- Take photos of your favourite NHL team mascot;
- Collect and trade hockey memorabilia and cards;
- Learn more about the history of the game at 30 exhibits;
- Test your shot accuracy and other hockey skills at one of the interactive attractions
SCOTIABANK PLACE 1000 Palladium Dr.
NHL SKILLS COMPETITION Saturday, 7 p.m.
The league’s best show off their skating, puck-handling and shooting skills. The event is sold out, but will be shown on CBC-TV.
NHL All Star fact: At this year’s Senators skills competition, Colin Greening (who will also take part in Saturday’s event) set a team record in the fastest skating competition with a time of 13.343 seconds. That gives him a good shot at winning Saturday — last year’s top time was Islanders winger Michael Grabner’s 14.238 seconds.
ALL-STAR GAME-Sunday, 4 p.m.
The busy weekend wraps up with the big game itself, which will feature four Ottawa Senators: Daniel Alfredsson, Jason Spezza, Erik Karlsson and Milan Michalek.
NHL All Star fact: All-Star Weekend is expected to pump $30 million to $35 million into the local economy.
I plan on partaking in the NHL festivities with my son. Enjoy the weekend Ottawa, have fun and play safe !

Ottawa NHL All star weekend , NHL all star game, Ottawa Personal Injury Lawyer David Hollingsworth
Ottawa accident leaves woman in critical condition: Ottawa police need our help.
Ottawa Personal Injury Lawyer David Hollingsworth …Ottawa Police need our help. They are looking for any witnesses to help in their investigation of an Ottawa accident on Woodroffe avenue that left a pedestrian woman with critical injuries at the corner of Woodroffe Avenue and Iris Street during yesterday’s afternoon’s rush hour.
The 40-year-old woman remains in an Ottawa hospital in critical condition as a result of being struck and pinned beneath the City of Ottawa snow plow. Ottawa Police are trying to figure out how the terrible Ottawa accident happened and are looking for any help they can get. Ottawa paramedics said the woman suffered serious critical injuries, which included internal injuries and broken legs. She never regained consciousness between the time they treated her and when they rushed her to got her to the Ottawa Hospital’s Civic Campus.
A passerby at the scene of the Ottawa accident called 911 and was instrumental in stopping traffic once she realised the woman was caught between the wheels of the City of Ottawa’s salt truck. As she came to the Ottawa accident scene , she noticed the driver was crouched down beside the injured woman, while another passerby came and stayed with the woman, holding her until Ottawa emergency crews arrived at the scene of the Ottawa accident.
My thoughts are with this woman and her family. If you have any information at all that relates to this terrible Ottawa accident, please contact the Ottawa police .

City of Ottawa Skating Safety : Rideau Canal conditions, Ottawa lawyer David Hollingsworth
Posted by Ottawa Personal Injury Lawyer, Ottawa Accident Lawyer, David Hollingsworth in Ottawa Injury and Accidents, Ottawa Resources, Personal Injury Claims, safety on January 8th, 2012
Ottawa Personal Injury Lawyer David Hollingsworth…I am very happy that Ottawa children under the age of 10 will be required to wear protective helmets during public skating sessions held in City of Ottawa facilities effective January 1, 2012. It is estimated that 5,700 Ottawa children receive medical treatments for personal injury in Ottawa emergency rooms, and 400 children are hospitalized, every year because of sports-related head injuries. This is very disturbing. We all want kids to have fun but it cannot be at the expense of their safety. Please take all necessary safety measures when it comes to children’s safety. There are far too many serious injuries each year such as traumatic brain injuries, spinal cord injuries and serious orthopedic injuries.
The City of Ottawa offers the following Safe Skating Tips:
- Wear the gear! Wearing a CSA (Canadian Standards Association), Snell or ASTM (American Society for Testing and Materials) approved helmet, that fits properly, will help prevent head injury. It should be worn snug, yet comfortable. Hockey helmets are recommended over cycling helmets because they can withstand multiple impacts. Wrist guards, elbow pads and knee pads help prevent wrist fractures, and bruises on knees and elbows.
- Choose proper fitting skates that give good support around your ankles (moulded skates are not recommended). Local sport stores should be able to help you with a proper fit. Remember, new skates must be sharpened before you go on the ice and then sharpened again each year at the start of the skating season.
- Lace your skates all the way up. You should never wrap the laces around your ankle. If the laces are too long, tie them in a double knot so you don’t trip over them.
- Wear only one pair of socks. Multiple pairs will make you feel colder and your skates might be too tight.
- Wear proper clothing: gloves, neck warmer, helmet, waterproof jacket and pants (NO jeans, as they will not keep you warm and dry if they get wet), long underwear, and a sweater should do the trick.
- Get trained! Instructors will be able to teach you the basics of skating, such as how to stop, how to fall safely, and how to get up after a fall. For lessons call 613-580-2596.
- Choose a surface that is relatively free of bumps and cracks to allow for more control and an easier time stopping. If skating on the Rideau Canal, watch for the green flags to ensure the conditions are safe. The N.C.C.’s Rideau Canal Skateway conditions hotline is: (613) 239-5234, press 1,1
- Watch where you are going, and always skate with the traffic. If you want to stop, head to the side so you won’t get in anyone’s way.
Avoid the following:
- Skating on the Rideau Canal Skateway when the red flags are flying.
- Skating too fast – this puts you and those around you at risk.
- Playing sports unless in a designated area (ex: hockey).
- Holding on to more than one person – this increases your chance of falling and hurting someone else.
- Placing sharp items in your pockets (ie. keys, combs, etc.).
- Using your toe-pick to start or stop (this will ruin the ice surface, and it won’t give the stability you need to safely start or stop), or removing bottom pick (designed to help you balance).
- Clothing with drawstrings.
-Enjoy this winter and please be safe. -Ottawa Personal Injury Lawyer David Hollingsworth

Ottawa’s icy road conditions lead to over 70 Ottawa accidents
Ottawa Personal Injury Lawyer David Hollingsworth — Yesterday’s icy weather conditions caused a tractor-trailer to hit 3 vehicles on Greenbank Road between Fallowfield and West Hunt Club roads. As a result of the Ottawa accident, one person was trapped in a vehicle and 3 others suffered serious personal injury.
There were more than 70 Ottawa accidents on Ottawa’s icy roads yesterday according to Ottawa police. The Ottawa Paramedic Service said that Ottawa accidents were “starting to pile up” as Ottawa received 10 to 15 millimetres of freezing rain.
Emergency crews on the Ottawa accident scene at the Greenbank accident were able to extricate the trapped occupant from the vehicle without the need for heavy equipment. Greenbank Road was closed for about two hours. Ottawa Paramedics say 2 people in their 50s suffered neck and back injury. Thankfully, they are in stable condition in an Ottawa hospital.
Ottawa Emergency crews also responded to 25 injuries from slips and falls on slippery Ottawa roads and sidewalks.

Ontario Accidents and Organ Donation. Will you register? Ottawa lawyer David Hollingsworth
Posted by Ottawa Personal Injury Lawyer, Ottawa Accident Lawyer, David Hollingsworth in Ottawa Car Accidents, Ottawa Injury and Accidents on December 1st, 2011
Organ and Tissue Donation in Ontario, Ottawa Personal Injury Lawyer David Hollingsworth, Ontario Accident Lawyers
Did you know…That in Ontario consent is needed for organ donation? In Ontario consent is needed in order for your organs to be donated upon death. In other areas it is typically the other way around that consent is implied and you register if you don’t want to donate your organs upon death.
A signed organ donor card is not enough, you need to register. The registration forms are on their website “The Gift of Live” as well.
The website states your donation can save up to 8 lives and improve as many as 75 lives. The website also recommends you make your intention of whether your want your organs donated or not known to your family beforehand.
What if it is in my will? The problem with your intention being written in your will is that your will is usually not read until a later date. It is very important you register if you want to donate your tissue and organs upon death. The form allows you to indicate what you don’t want to donate.
The choice of whether or not to donate organs is very personal and often times a very difficult decision for family members to make.
