Pickering decides
against muzzling bylaw,

PICKERING —Dog lovers
can breathe a sigh of relief — for
the time being.
Local councillors have rejected
an amendment to the City’s dog
and cat bylaw that would have re-
quired mandatory muzzling for
dogs that bite a person or another
domestic animal.

DURHAM ––Hemoutie
Raghunauth had 64 times the lethal
amount of cyanide in her blood
when she died on Mother’s Day
2000, her husband’s murder trial
has heard. Blood samples from the
Pickering woman also detected
high levels of the sedative
Temazepam in Mrs. Raghunauth’s
blood, six times above the thera-
peutic dosage prescribed for chron-
ic insomniacs, an expert testified.
To xicology tests found Mrs.
Raghunauth, who was eight to 10
weeks pregnant when she died, had
6.4 mgs of cyanide per 100 mls of
blood in her system, Dr. Robert
Langille, a forensic toxicologist,
told court Wednesday.
One-tenth of a milligram is fatal,
said Dr. Langille, of the Centre for
Forensic Sciences, who tested sam-
ples taken during an autopsy on the
victim.
The Crown is alleging Mrs.
Raghunauth, 28, was drugged with
Temazepam, sold under the brand
name Restoril, before she was poi-
soned with cyanide by her husband,
Ganesh Raghunauth, in their Beat-
on Way home.
Mr. Raghunauth, 31, has plead-
ed not guilty to first-degree murder.
Dr. Langille described to the
jury of eight men and four women
how the drug-poison cocktail
would have sedated and then killed
Mrs. Raghunauth, the mother of a
15-month-old boy.
The level of Temazepam, which
was not enough to cause a fatal
overdose, would have incapacitated
Police say elderly

AJAX ––A woman is
charged with swindling her el-
derly mother out of her life sav-
ings, draining the victim’s bank
accounts while she was in hospi-
tal.
Committing fraud is one
thing, “but stealing from your
own mother, especially when
she’s ill, is pretty low,” said De-
tective Jack Schoon.
The 83-year-old victim lost in
excess of $80,000 to the fraud,
said Det. Schoon, of the Durham
Regional Police major fraud
unit.
Daughter

senior bilked

See DEADLY page 4
“Most of her entire savings were
taken, none has been recovered,” he
said, adding the ailing senior was
left with roughly
$10,000 in the
bank.
Her 55-year-
old daughter, who
was arrested Tues-
day after an inves-
tigation, is ac-
cused of stealing,
forging and cash-
ing a cheque from
her mother’s ac-
count.
Another
cheque, one of
three signed by
her mother in-
tended for invest-
ment and bills,
was allegedly
cashed and pock-
eted by the
woman.
A jar stuffed
with $300 cash,
money the 83-
year-old woman
had been saving
for her grand-
daughter, also
went missing
while the victim
was in hospital
last August suffer-
ing from kidney
failure, said Det. Schoon.
The daughter holds a clerical po-
sition at a Toronto hospital and was
staying at her mother’s Ajax condo-
minium during the week. On week-
ends, she would return to her Min-
den residence, where she lives with
her husband.
“The mother came out of the
hospital and realized things were
out of order. Her son checked on her
affairs and found all the money was
gone,” said Det. Schoon. The frail
senior is now living with her son in
the Ottawa area.
The woman, who was not named
by police to protect the victim’s
identity, was released with a
promise to appear in Oshawa court
Feb. 6.

Decision on new Durham
headquarters due Wednesday
Substandard
buildings threaten
employee health:
Union official
BY JACQUIE McINNES
Staff Writer
DURHAM ––While politi-
cians debate the finances of a
new regional headquarters the
story for employees is one of
mice and mould, says the
union’s president.
“Finding a dead mouse
around my desk was not an un-
common occurrence,” Helen
Gibb-Gavel, president of CUPE
1764, which represents more
than 1,000 regional employees,
recalled at a joint works and fi-
nance committee meeting
Wednesday.
The committee approved a
report to move forward with a
new $68-million Regional
headquarters to amalgamate
leased office space throughout
the region.
Ms. Gibb-Gavel spoke of
“mice and bugs” in an office lo-
cated in a converted warehouse
back in the early 1990s. Em-
ployees moved from there to
Bond Towers in Oshawa where
she said, “the parking lot leak-
ing onto desks, poor air quality
from hair perm solutions (from
a neighbouring hairdresser),
diesel fumes and vibration
problems” were part of the
workplace atmosphere. When
that facility closed, employees
were moved to 850 King St. E.
where “sewage pipes bursting
over the file room meant entire
client files had to be freeze
dried” to be used safely.
Now, she added, employees
at another facility, 60 Bond St.,
are dealing with a recurring
mould problem that has been
“costly” for the Region to repair
and are still being monitored
due to ongoing air quality prob-
lems.
The problems began when
the Region, with headquarters
at 605 Rossland Rd. E., in
Whitby was formed in 1974,
Ms. Gavel said. “Due to the re-
stricted space at this facility the
Region was forced to lease
space across the region in tem-
porary locations. After 29 years
the Regional works department
is still in its temporary leased
location. Other offices, she
adds, have been moved several
times, resulting in a “piece-
meal” delivery of services.
At Wednesday’s meeting,
the Greater Oshawa Chamber
of Commerce, the most vocal
opponent to a new headquar-
ters, told council it has not had
enough time to digest the pro-
posal released Friday, Jan. 10,
for building a new headquarters
on the Rossland Road/Garden
Street property. However, the
chamber’s concern about the
economic impact on Oshawa,
was briefly addressed by Fi-
nance Commissioner Jim
Clapp.
He said the City’s downtown
has 6,000 workers and only 180
of them are regional employees.
And he added, “Possibly, if we
move out somebody else is
going to move as Oshawa has a
high demand for office space.”
The Durham Home
Builder’s Association, previ-
ously opposed to the new head-
quarters, reversed its position
after reviewing the Jan. 10 re-
port. The association deter-
mined the new building will not
result in a tax increase for
homeowners and will not mean
new development charges, said
DHBA president Narci Mas-
troianni.
The report will come back to
full regional council next week
for a final vote despite efforts
by some politicians to delay the
decision.
Ajax councillor Jim McMas-
ter asked for the report to be
tabled until Feb. 12 to allow the
town time to hold a public
meeting while Clarington
Mayor John Mutton asked for a
tabling until some questions put
forward by that municipality
and Oshawa could be answered.
Oshawa council is on the
record as being in opposition
the construction of a new head-
quarters.
Mr. Clapp told politicians
the report had been reviewed by
Moody’s Investor Services,
which confirmed construction
would not affect the Region’s
Triple A credit rating.
As well, he said, the report
had been peer-reviewed by C.N.
Wa tson and Associates Ltd with
technical expertise provided by
Cansult Hanscomb Projects Inc.
According to the report, the Re-
gion will begin saving as much
as $500,000 in 2005, the first
year the new headquarters
opens.
Nutrition tops agenda for diabetes group
PICKERING —An upcoming
meeting will help diabetics find the
path to a healthy lifestyle.
The Canadian Diabetes Associa-
tion Durham Region Branch support
group holds its next meeting Tuesday,
Jan. 21 at 7 p.m. at the Petticoat
Creek Library and Community Cen-
tre, 470 Kingston Rd., in Pickering.
Guest speaker Susan Cable, a nu-
tritional practitioner, will discuss the
necessary path to healthy living with
those in attendance.
To reserve a spot or for more in-
formation, call Barbara Fleming at
905-426-5522.
her. “This amount of
Temazepam would cause
significant sedation. An indi-
vidual would have difficulty
staying awake... They would
have difficulty making deci-
sions, their whole mental ca-
pacity would slow down,”
said Dr. Langille, adding the
drug would lead to loss of
co-ordination and motor
skills.
“The more likely scenario
is the Temazepam was con-
sumed sometime prior to the
cyanide... It (the cyanide)
would have killed quickly,”
he said.
Death by cyanide ––
which virtually suffocates a
person by choking off the
flow of oxygen from the
blood to internal organs ––
happens in several stages.
“Cyanide... is one of the
most rapid poisons which
can cause death within sec-
onds or minutes... With such
a large dose in an individual
(death) would be fairly
rapid,” Dr. Langille said.
Cyanide can come in salt
form and can be diluted in
water.
When ingested, a person
would feel burning in the
mouth and throat followed
by a headache, stiff neck,
dizziness, confusion and
nausea, the jury heard.
Rapid and shallow
breathing, convulsions and
possibly paralysis would
occur as the heart rate
slowed as a result of oxygen
starvation.
“Death is almost always
due to respiratory collapse.
They simply stop breathing,”
Dr. Langille said.
Since she had food in her
stomach, Dr. Langille said
Mrs. Raghunauth likely died
within a few minutes to an
hour after the cyanide was
introduced.
Analysis of Mrs. Raghu-
nauth’s stomach contents
also detected high levels of
cyanide –– 1.8 mgs per 100
mls of stomach contents, he
added.
Dr. Langille said he as-
sisted the Durham Regional
Police forensic identification
unit in the search of the cou-
ple’s residence for evidence.
An empty windshield
fluid jug found in the
garbage outside the home
tested positive for the pres-
ence of cyanide fumes, Dr.
Langille said.
Mr. Raghunauth called
911 at 2:22 p.m. May 14,
2000 and reported finding
his wife unconscious on the
bathroom floor. He told po-
lice he was out buying her a
Mother’s Day gift. She was
pronounced dead at 3:05
p.m. The trial continues be-
fore Justice Robert Scott of
Ontario Superior Court.

wouldn’t be able to handle
the number of appeals from
dog owners expected from
the change.
But Ward 1 Regional
Councillor Maurice Brenner
said afterwards he plans to
bring the issue forward again
in the future.
“I’ll review what options
are available to ensure the in-
terests of (my constituent) are
addressed as well as the criti-
cisms from the justice of the
peace,” he said.
His push for a muzzling
bylaw stems from a com-
plaint from Cindy Mason,
who said her son was bit by a
neighbourhood dog Oct. 10.
She claims the dog has bitten
on three other occasions, but
Pickering Ajax Whitby
(PAW) Animal Services de-
cided not to muzzle the ani-
mal. Ms. Mason said she was
told by PAW she could try to
have the dog destroyed under
the Dog Owner’s Liability
Act but a justice of the peace
refused to hear the case, stat-
ing it should be dealt with by
Pickering’s bylaw.
Responding to the situa-
tion, council decided in No-
vember to strengthen the
City’s dog and cat bylaw. It
approved the mandatory
muzzle order (until owners
can prove they have the dog
under control) and requested
all dog bites be reported to
the City so it may appeal
through the courts to have the
offending dog destroyed.
However, the changes had
to be discussed with PAW’s
joint animal services commit-
tee because Pickering was
asking for a higher level of
service than currently offered
in Ajax and Whitby. The City
of Pickering and towns of
Ajax and Whitby fund PAW
to administer animal control
services to the three munici-
palities.
Mayor Wayne Arthurs
said Monday night he agreed
with the original intent of the
bylaw amendment until read-
ing the PAW report. It states
only one municipality in the
Greater Toronto Area has a
muzzling bylaw — Oakville,
and 75 per cent of its muz-
zling orders are appealed.
“We don’t have that kind
of structure in the City,” he
said. “It would have to come
back to committee (here) be-
cause we don’t have an ani-
mal committee. I’m not ready
to set that kind of stage.”
Pickering is the only mu-
nicipality involved in PAW
requesting mandatory muz-
zling, city clerk Bruce Taylor
pointed out. But the joint ani-
mal services committee has
agreed to hear appeals should
the City go that route, he said,
until the number of appeals
begins to “get out of hand”.
At that point, Pickering
must set up a committee to
deal with them on its own,
Mr. Taylor said.

Pickering councillors opt against muzzling bylaw for dogs
PICKERING from page 1
P PAGE 6 NEWS ADVERTISER, FRIDAY EDITION, January 17, 2003 www.durhamregion.com
Applying laws
would stop problems
To the editor:
Re: ‘Where there’s smoke, police find trou-
ble,’editorial, Jan. 8.
The editorial noted Durham Regional
Police are trying to reduce impaired dri-
ving, but a wave of offenders is creating a
challenge. It is not the increasing amount
of offenders who are causing such prob-
lems, though they are at fault, but instead
the challenge lies in the law itself.
Last Thanksgiving weekend I was in-
volved in a car accident. As the driver of
the car at fault approached my car, it was
clear he was intoxicated. Fortunately no
one was seriously hurt. Even though the
driver admitted to me and an officer that
he was drinking and smoked a lot of pot, I
was later informed by my insurance
provider that the driver was not charged as
the officers at the scene failed to put that
he was intoxicated in the report.
Though I will never know if he was
over the legal limit when he was breathal-
ysed, I do know that when one can barely
talk or stand straight it’s a good indication
they should not be behind the wheel. As
stated in the editorial, even though there
are no measurable levels for marijuana im-
pairment behind the wheel, police officers
can charge obviously stoned drivers.
As citizens we expect justice to be
served to those who don’t abide by the
law. To the officers at the scene, no one
likes to be woken by a call at 3 a.m. and
told a drunk driver has hit a loved one.
Next time that phone call might be for
you.
L. M. Clement,
Pickering

Editorial &OPINIONS
PICKERING NEWS ADVERTISER JANUARY 17, 2003
I feel like I’m being pushed into
retirement. Sure, I’m 56 years of age
and I’ve been working 40 years, but
I’m just warming up baby!
I know more now than I have
ever known. Things come a lot easi-
er to me. No more self-doubt or
worry about whether I made the
right decisions. The past is the past.
Today is what’s important to me, my
wife, my children, my grandchild,
my friends. I’m the first of the baby
boomers (born between 1946 and
1964) and I have worked hard to get
to this freedom stage in my life. I’m
not retiring... hell, I don’t even know
what I want to be when I grow up.
My point is this: I am part of a
generation that is being conned into
thinking we are the past generation,
when we are very much the present.
The advertising media have got us
thinking we should be retiring
soon... over the hill.
Never before has there been such
a large demographic group that has
had no model before them from pre-
vious generations. We’ve got to
wake up.
For starters, we should retire the
word retirement and get on with our
lives, make forward-thinking plans
like we always have. Stop our pre-
occupation with retirement planning
and make a new going-forward life
plan that includes helping others
with what we have learned.
I’ve never seen such a large
group of lost souls as people in their
late 40s and early- to mid-50s. We
all seem to be in the same state of
indecision and soul-searching. Who
am I? Where do I fit in? What does
the future hold for me? What is life
all about?
It’s natural as we’re coming to
grips with our mortality. We are
likely well past the halfway mark in
our lives. The kids are gone or well
on their way to creating their own
lives, opening up time for ourselves.
Filling this time in a meaningful,
sustainable, mentally stimulating
way is challenging enough without
adding the worry of 30-plus years of
full retirement to the equation. What
we need to do is sit down and create
a new life plan.
Don’t let anyone tell you any dif-
ferent! Regardless of your occupa-
tion, your life experience is worth a
lot to our younger society. Continue
to put it to work.
Personally, I prefer the chal-
lenges of life to a guaranteed exis-
tence, the thrill of fulfilment to the
stale calm of utopia. Don’t retire —
refocus.

We ’re far from ready for the rocking chair
If it’s true that a law on the books is only as good as the
quality of its enforcement, Pickering made the correct deci-
sion in rejecting a bylaw amendment on muzzling aggressive
dogs.
City officials on Monday chose practical considerations
over good intentions regarding changes that would have re-
quired dogs that bite people or other animals to wear a muz-
zle until it can be proven they are safe and in the care and con-
trol of their owners.
However, the bylaw amendment would likely result in an
undue number of appeals from dog owners in Pickering that
the City wouldn’t be equipped to deal with effectively.
One of the additional difficulties Pickering faces in its ap-
proach to amending the bylaw is that it is part of trio of mu-
nicipalities sharing funding responsibility for animal control
through Pickering-Ajax-Whitby Animal Services.
Neither Ajax nor Whitby has muzzle bylaws on their
books, leaving the City as the sole proponent of the amend-
ment. City officials also noted Monday the only other GTA
municipality with a muzzle bylaw, Oakville, spends an inor-
dinate amount of its time dealing with owner appeals. About
75 per cent of muzzle-order cases end up being challenged.
Pickering is on the right track in creating this amendment
to ensure the highest level of safety for City residents. How-
ever, officials must engage their PAW partners in working to-
ward a solution to the issue in each municipality and ensure
there is an equal share of any additional funding required.
And Pickering Councillor Maurice Brenner is encouraged
to continue researching the issue to provide appropriate and
practical information to officials in Ajax and Whitby to allow
them to make informed decisions on behalf of their residents.
If safety from aggressive dogs is an equal priority in all
three municipalities, then those City and Town representatives
must also have a role in reaching solutions.
This became a pressing issue for Pickering after a child in
the community was bitten last year by an unmuzzled dog. The
boy’s mother said her son was the animal’s third victim. The
response in promoting this amendment shows a commitment
to finding solutions, but it should have drawn its PAW partners
into the process at the outset.
Solutions can be found, certainly, but not without the par-
ticipation of all of the municipalities involved in the process.
Pickering puts
a muzzle on
amendment process
More study, co-operation between
municipalities will lead to solution for all

Public board elementary teachers reporting for partial duty
BY MIKE RUTA
Staff Writer
DURHAM — The province’s
public elementary teachers’ union
has ‘pink-listed’ the Durham Dis-
trict School Board and plans to
begin work-to-rule action next week
by no longer performing adminis-
trative services.
“It advises teachers outside of
our school board that they should
not apply for a position (here),” ex-
plained Rachel Gencey, Durham
unit president of the Elementary
Teachers’ Federation of Ontario
(ETFO), of the ETFO advisory.
An ETFO member who ignores
the pink listing faces disciplinary
action that could include a fine of up
to $500, a ban on holding elected
positions at ETFO, or being left out
in the cold in terms of union help if
a teacher is in trouble, said Ms.
Gencey.
“It’s fairly effective because it
kind of grinds the hiring to a halt,”
she said.
The union is poised to start
work-to-rule action in local elemen-
tary schools Jan. 22.
“That will be incremental, we’ll
be building up over the winter,” she
said.
The union strike protocol re-
leased Thursday states educators
will continue to teach, offer extra
help to students, keep in contact
with parents regarding students and
perform supervisory duties. And,
while teachers will submit report
card information to principals, they
will only deliver handwritten marks
and learning skills on a copy of the
provincial report card and not
record the information on comput-
ers or provide detailed comments.
Teachers will not perform custo-
dial, secretarial or administrative
functions, attend board-sponsored
workshops that take place outside
the teaching day, order supplies, at-
tend staff meetings, schedule any
new field trips, complete Education
Ministry forms or reports, or collect
money from students.
“My expectation is it may make
the administrator’s job much more
difficult,” said Ms. Gencey.
The elementary teachers have
been working without a contract for
over four months. In December,
91.5 per cent of voting members
gave the union a strike mandate, the
first in the local’s history.
A bargaining session between
the two parties last month resulted
in union claims that the board had
made an “insulting” contract offer.
Sally McIlveen, the board’s em-
ployee services superintendent, at
the time countered that the board
had made offers in the areas of
salary, benefits and preparation
time, identified as priorities by the
union, putting $2.3 million on the
table.
The two sides met again Monday
but Ms. Gencey said there was
“very little progress.” She said the
board made teachers a new offer
and the union responded.
“They didn’t like the response so
they withdrew the offer,” said Ms.
Gencey.
Ms. McIlveen said the board
made “a substantial” salary offer
Monday and she is concerned there
has been no movement by the
union. She added the pink listing is
“the union’s” and that the board
“continues its process of staffing its
schools.
“I hope that (prospective board
teachers) will speak to us... directly
and make their decisions long-term
in where they choose to work,” she
said.
She also maintained the parties
will come to an agreement. The two
sides next meet Jan. 29.
ETFO pink listed the board in
2001 during contract talks that
eventually resulted in a five per cent
salary increase for full-time elemen-
tary teachers.

Durham students float towards another Olympics
Science is the topic,
and teamwork is
the key to glory
DURHAM —Every year is an
Olympic year in the region — a Ju-
nior Science Olympics year, that is.
The fourth version of the
Durham Regional Junior Science
Olympics for Grade 4 to 6 public
school students is set for the last
week of the month at three Durham
sites.
“It’s about teamwork, it’s about
co-operation and it’s about using the
science skills you might have
learned in class and applying them,”
said Mary Ann Griffin, the Durham
District School Board’s science pro-
gram facilitator.
She said seven new curriculum-
related events have been created for
the competition so returning stu-
dents don’t have an edge over other
pupils.
In one event, dubbed ‘Hover-
craft,’students use helium balloons.
“They have to create a basket
that will attach to the helium bal-
loon... and add things into the bal-
loon to make the balloon hover ex-
actly one metre off the ground,” said
Ms. Griffin.
Mini Olympics held at most of
the participating schools determined
which students would move on.
As in the past, York University
teacher candidates are helping out to
obtain experience and gather ideas
to perhaps bring into their own
classrooms one day.
Parents and the general public
are welcome to watch the Olympics
live, space permitting.
The Olympics takes place be-
tween 9:20 a.m. and 2:30 p.m. at the
following locations:
Wednesday, Jan. 29 — Durham
District School Board Education
Centre in Whitby (Whitby and Os-
hawa students).
Thursday, Jan. 30 — R. H. Cor-
nish Public School in Port Perry
(Brock, Uxbridge and Scugog stu-
dents).
Friday, Jan. 31 — Lakeside Pub-
lic School in Ajax (Ajax and Picker-
ing students).

Catholic board goes
back to the past
Retired superintendent
comes back, Andrews
signs on for longer
goodbye
BY MIKE RUTA
Staff Writer
DURHAM —Durham’s Catholic
school board is bringing back a re-
tired superintendent on a contract
basis, and will also delay the depar-
ture of its education director.
John Vesters, the Durham Catholic
District School Board’s former su-
perintendent of human resources, re-
tired last summer.
At Monday’s board meeting, the
board announced it has entered into a
contract with Mr. Vesters, ending
June 30, for his return as a superin-
tendent of education.
Board chairman Mary Ann Martin
said in an interview the board is short
one superintendent and last spring
began looking for a new supervisory
officer.
“We interviewed and did not find
one we thought was suitable for our
board,” she said.
As a result, the existing superin-
tendent portfolios were redistributed,
resulting in a “heavy, heavy work-
load”.
Trustee Martin said with Patricia
Manson set to take over as the
board’s education director Feb. 17,
the board would not hire a new su-
perintendent until she begins work.
Mr. Vesters is not taking over his old
job, however, but will be responsible
for an area of schools.
Trustee Martin said when Ms.
Manson becomes director, her time-
line for finding a new superintendent
may see Mr. Vesters’ contract end
sooner.
Meanwhile, current education di-
rector Grant Andrews will remain at
the board under contract until the end
of March. Originally, he planned to
leave at the end of last year.
“Grant will be the associate direc-
tor for the changeover period,” said
Tr ustee Martin.
At Monday’s meeting she said Mr.
Andrews’ contract “may be extend-
ed” beyond March.
In the interview, she said the op-
posite could occur and he could leave
sooner, again depending on Ms.
Manson’s wishes.
She said both Mr. Andrews and
Mr. Vesters would receive the same
salary they were paid as board em-
ployees. Mr. Andrews’ 2001 salary
was $177,832.06 while Mr. Vesters
earned $116,722.84.
GRANT ANDREWS
Remaining under contract until
the end of next month.
March of Dimes is out
knocking on Durham doors
DURHAM ––March of
Dimes canvassers are
going door-to-door
throughout Durham this
month, raising funds and
awareness.
Registered volunteers
are visiting residents in
Pickering, Ajax, Whitby
and Oshawa. Monies col-
lected through the cam-
paign help people across
the province acquire de-
vices such as wheelchairs
and walkers. All funds col-
lected will be passed onto
area co-ordinators and then
to the March of Dimes.
This year Canadian co-
median/actor Leslie
Nielsen is honourary chair-
man for Ontario March of
Dimes Annual Door-to-
Door Campaign. With Mr.
Nielsen’s help and celebri-
ty status, the organization
is hoping to raise $1.3 mil-
lion.
“I’ve known about
March of Dimes since I
was a kid. It goes back that
far,”says Mr. Nielsen. “It’s
like a family charity. I
think it has helped a great
deal... I enjoy being part of
that.”
March of Dimes started
out as an effort to find a
cure for polio in 1949 and
by 1955 the funds raised
did help find the cure. It
has now evolved into serv-
ing people with physical
disabilities including mul-
tiple sclerosis, Parkinson’s
disease, cerebral palsy,
post polio syndrome,
stroke and muscular dys-
trophy. It is now one of
Ontario’s largest charitable
rehabilitation organiza-
tions.
Last year, the organiza-
tion helped 1,835 people
acquire devices. In
Durham Region, 63 people
were assisted through the
program.

The following new movies are
opening in theatres this week-
end.
NATIONAL SECURITY
Earl (Martin Lawrence) and
Hank (Steve Zahn) have only
one thing in common: they’re
both LAPD rejects. One just got
kicked out and the other can’t
even get in.
After confronting each other
on opposite sides of the law dur-
ing a traffic stop that escalates
out of control, the two luckless
individuals end up partnered as
lowly security guards. Despite
being damned to the lowest rung
of the law enforcement ladder,
Earl and Hank uncover a sophis-
ticated smuggling operation led
by Nash (Eric Roberts) and his
band of thugs.
When Earl and Hank get their
hands on some hot property, they
go on the run from, first the bad
guys, then the LAPD — led by
Lt. Washington (Bill Duke) and
Detective McDuff (Colm Feore).
What these two unlikely part-
ners do to law enforcement is a
crime, but they just might save
the day.
That is, if they don’t kill each
other first.
A GUY THING
Paul Morse (Jason Lee)
wakes up from his bachelor
party in bed with a strange
woman.
But Becky (Julia Stiles) is not
just any strange woman, she’s
the cousin of his fiancee, Karen
(Selma Blair). As the wedding
date approaches, Paul has to
contend with rehearsals, his fu-
ture in-laws, Becky’s lunatic ex-
fiance (who has a steroid rage
problem) and, oh yeah, hiding
his suspected infidelity.
KANGAROO JACK
Tw o friends from Brooklyn
(Jerry O’Connell, Anthony An-
derson) are forced to deliver
mob money to Australia. Their
misadventures begin when one
of them places his red jacket on
a kangaroo while attempting to
snap a picture. When the kanga-
roo bounces off, they realize the
mob money is in the jacket and
are forced to give chase through
the outback.

BY KEITH GILLIGAN
Staff Writer
PICKERING ––For than
30 years, he’s been Canada’s
leading exponent of Celtic
music.
In fact, when he started, it
wasn’t even thought of as
music.
But, John Allan Cameron
continues to put on his kilt and
get up on stage.
“I’m an entertainer. It does-
n’t matter to me if the audience
is from Cape Breton, Vancou-
ver,Los Angeles or Hong
Kong. I do what I do and I’ve
survived all these years,”
Cameron says.
Over the years, he’s hosted
two television shows, per-
formed across the country,
made friends with just about
everybody, released albums
and influenced a new genera-
tion, including his son Stuart
and cousin Natalie MacMaster
“When I first started, it was-
n’t considered music,”
Cameron says. “I had to fight
then.
“I’ve never been apologetic
of my music. When I was at St.
FX (St. Francis Xavier Univer-
sity), I was playing pipe tunes
on guitar. My confreres were
apologizing for me doing it.
They said it was for old peo-
ple,” Cameron says.
“If music is performed well,
there’s a pristine purity. I
helped preserve it and bring it
on my show.”
Whether he’s an institution
or not is “for history to say.
I’m a link in a chain,” he
states. “Everyone has to pull
together. The future of the
world depends on the kids. We
need new ideas and innovative
ways to get things done. There
are people who influenced me
and I respected that. They gave
me the confidence to carry on.”
He spent six-and-a-half
years in a Catholic seminary
studying for the priesthood. He
left in 1963 and spent two
years at St. FX and a year at
Dalhousie University, getting a
teacher’s certificate. He taught
high school in London, On-
tario for a year before return-
ing to Halifax, where he audi-
tioned for Sing Along Jubilee.
“Nobody was doing what I
was doing, wearing a kilt and
singing Celtic songs,” he
notes.
He played the Grand Ole
Opry in 1970, on the same bill
as Hank Snow and Roy
Rogers. “Hank Snow said to
me ‘well young man, whatever
it is you’re doing, keep doing
it.’ It was great. It was my first
great review,” Cameron notes.
His first show on CTV was
filmed in Montreal from 1975
to ‘77, while his second was on
the CBC from ‘79 to ‘82 and
produced in Halifax.
“It (the second show) was
well received. I have no idea
why it was cancelled,” he
states.
Just a ‘link in a chain’: Cameron
“At that time, they weren’t paying
a heck of a lot of attention to Celtic
music. I had a heck of a lot of good
guests.”
As for work these days, he says,
“I do as many shows as I’m asked.
The winter is always a slow time. In
the summer time, it’s pretty full.”
The Camerons moved to Picker-
ing six years ago, arriving from
Markham after 20 years.
“I’d be away a lot and my wife
was doing all the cutting of the grass
and shovelling of snow. You have to
keep things looking good,” Cameron
says.
“I married in 1969 and I’m still
married to the same lovely lady, An-
gela,” he says.
For years, he and Anne Murray
had the same manager, Leonard
Rambeau.
Cameron and Rambeau were at
different universities at the same
time, when Cameron told him he
should go see a singer named Anne
Murray.
“It’s part of divine intervention.
They clicked right away,” he says.
“He took a little acorn and grew it
into a wonderful, fruitful tree. If the
right people don’t take you to the
next level, it’s like winking at a good
looking person in the dark.”
Rambeau managed the two for
years, until his death in the mid-
1990s from cancer.
These days, Cameron is proud of
son Stuart, who has played with Ash-
ley MacIsaac and is now a guitarist
for Amanda Marshall. Stuart also
just finished producing an upcoming
CD by the Crash Test Dummies.
“Stuart was the 23rd guitar player
she auditioned. He has one thing
other guitar players can’t do. He can
play acoustic guitar very well,” not-
ing most people don’t realize how
difficult it is to hit the notes well.
As for Stuart producing his first
compact disc, the proud father notes,
“He was in his glory producing the
Crash Test Dummies album.”
And he likes to keep it in the fam-
ily, too.
“Whenever we can, we play to-
gether. We know each other so well.
I’d like to do a Canadian tour called
Father and Son or Fathers and Sons.
People can see functional families
getting along.”
His next show is Saturday, Jan. 25
at the Markham Veterans Hall. Tick-
ets are $10 each.
Call 905-924-3159 for more in-
formation.It’s been a musical version of all in the family for the
Camerons. Dad John Allan is well-known to Canadian audi-
ences for his decades of performing Celtic music, while son
Stuart plays guitar for Amanda Marshall and produced an
upcoming CD by the Crash Test Dummies.

Sahadath ascends to No. 2
on international hurdles scene
BY AL RIVETT
Sports Editor
AJAX —Encouragement from friends, fam-
ily and coaches has pushed a Pickering High
athlete to new heights in his track and field ca-
reer.
Cameron Sahadath, 17, is not only regarded
as the top young hurdler in Canada, but recent-
ly released rankings have placed the talented
teen among the best on the planet.
The World Track and Field Youth Rankings
2002 for athletes 18 years and under were re-
leased in December, and Sahadath is ranked
second in the 110-metre hurdles. His time of
13.73 seconds last year is only slightly slower
than the world’s top-ranked under-18 hurdler,
Shamar Sands, 17, of the Bahamas, who
clocked in at 13.67 seconds.
When he found out about his world status,
Sahadath was justifiably happy.
“I was very pleased with it,” said the Grade
12 student. “It was kind of reassuring and
boosted my confidence. I was happy to be able
to do that well.
“I am surprised and I’m not. I know I’ve put
in a lot of hard work and dedication. I’ve been
in the sport almost my whole life. I’ve never re-
ally thought of myself as being better than any-
body else. Somebody else telling me that — it’s
better than me saying it. I know how hard the
people around me are working, too.”
If there was a single reason behind what was
an outstanding 2002 season on the track, Saha-
dath points to simple encouragement.
“I think it was positive encouragement from
everyone I care about. That brought me to work
harder at practice, to listen more to my coaches
and people in the sport. That’s what contributed
the most,” he said.
Although still too young at 17 to be signed to
a U.S. university scholarship, Sahadath has
nonetheless made up his mind about his acade-
mic and athletic future. It lies at home.
“Right now, I’m looking to stay in Canada.
Business and commerce is my field of interest.
By staying here, I’m around my family and I
can get the help from wherever I need it,” said
Sahadath, adding he’s looking at the University
of Toronto,York, Queen’s and the University of
Wa terloo as possible destinations.
Sahadath is not only one of Canada’s top
hurdlers, but he has trained with many of the
country’s top performers in the sport. He noted
his best friend is the brother of Canadian
Olympian Adrian Woodley, of Whitby. He also
spent time training with Canadian Olympian
and NCAA champion hurdler Perdita Felicien,
of Pickering, before she represented Canada at
the 2000 Olympic Summer Games in Sydney,
Australia.
“They’re older than me and they’re both pos-
itive role models,” said Sahadath. “They’re
someone to aspire to. To see them go to the
Olympics shows me that it is possible; it is at-
tainable.”
He’s also received strong guidance from his
father, Curtis Sahadath, and uncle Cyril Saha-
dath, a teacher at Pickering High, over the
years.
“My dad’s at every practice and meet. My
uncle’s at the school and we have a very good
relationship. I think he’s had just as much influ-
ence as my father has,” said Sahadath.
His ultimate goal is to represent Canada at
the 2004 Summer Olympic Games in Athens.
“I’m working to get to the Olympics in 2004.
If I don’t I won’t be too let down. If not 2004,
definitely 2008.”
Pickering loses top
players as injuries
and losses mount
BY AL RIVETT
Sports Editor
PICKERING —The disgust in Jim
Wilson’s voice is palpable.
The Pickering Boyer Pontiac Pan-
thers’ first-year head coach and general
manager has taken his fair share of
lumps this season — bad luck at every
turn, not the least of which have been a
never-ending spate of injuries.
But, more bad news came down the
pipe recently with trade demands by
three stalwart Panthers players. Deals
were carried out at the OHA Ontario
Provincial Junior ‘A’ Hockey League
trade deadline last Friday.
Wilson is loath to discuss the dead-
line-day deals as forward Brent Chan-
dler, forward and team captain Ryan
Ta ylor and number-one goaltender
Scott Gray got their wish and were sent
to playoff contenders — Chandler to the
Stouffville Spirit for second-year for-
ward Daniel Kim, and Taylor and Gray
to the Wexford Raiders and Markham
Wa xers, respectively, in cash deals.
“It’s very difficult for me to speak
about these things because I’m so nega-

Nice finish for minor
atom Panthers
Pickering squad
wins two, ties one
as regular season
draws to a close
PICKERING —The
Pickering Panthers Karadjian
& Courcy/Carlos Delgado
minor atom ‘A’ rep hockey
team ended its regular season
on a high note going unde-
feated in 2003.
Pickering hosted Ajax in
the regular season finale Jan.
10, responding with a 3-0
win over the Knights. This
was quite a feat as the Aja-
cians are one of the toughest
defensive teams in the
league, having allowed two
or fewer goals in over 70 per
cent of their games.
Andrew Eng opened the
scoring in the second period
on a nifty move followed by a
low shot to the corner. Chris-
tian Dimopoulos and Adam
Spiers drew assists. In the
third, some hard work and
diligence by Derek Luening,
while short-handed, set up
Doug Lalach in the slot for a
2-0 lead. Aidan Masse closed
out the scoring on a low, hard
wrist shot with Luening pick-
ing up the assist. Cameron
Jarmain earned his second
consecutive shutout.
The Panthers hosted sec-
ond-place Whitby Jan. 8 with
the teams settling for a hard-
fought 1-1 tie. Pickering
opened the scoring through
Eng’s persistence around the
net. Bryan Knopf and Di-
mopoulos provided the
spadework and earned the as-
sists. Whitby tied the game
late in the third on a shot de-
flected in off a Panthers’ de-
fender. Adam Berk was ex-
cellent in net making several
key stops.
The Panthers began their
streak with a 1-0 road victory
over Oshawa Jan. 4. Picker-
ing dominated from start to
finish with some great work
from the Oshawa goaltender
keeping the game close. Lu-
ening scored on a power play,
with Masse and Adam Wat-
son drawing assists. Jarmain
earned the shutout with a
couple of key saves in the
dying moments.
Also contributing to the
team’s success were Khalid
Alli, Brandon Cammisa,
Zachary Domingo, Connor
Farag, Cameron Giglio and
Cody Malloy.
John Dimopoulos coaches
the team, assisted by Steve
Knopf and Steve Spiers.
Spiers is the manager and the
trainer is Ray Giglio. Goal-
tending coaches are Kevin
Malloy and Greg Watson.
Our kids
are our
future and
we want
to help
make it
bright!

SCOREBOARD
January 17, 2003
tive toward them,” said Wilson, who refused to
say anything more for the record.
If there was a silver lining, Wilson said he’s
impressed with Kim.
“He’s a fine replacement. He’ll supply us
with some offence,” he said.
The loss of the three players no doubt came as
a big hit to the struggling club that currently sits
second-last in the league’s South Conference
with a 9-29-3-1 record. Also devastating has
been the steady stream of injured players, adding
up to 150 man games lost to injury this season.
Of late, three more players went down in loss-
es to the Waxers (5-3 in Markham Friday) and to
Collingwood (5-0 in Pickering Sunday). For-
ward Jesse Toms, who recently returned from an
extended stay on the injury list, suffered a knee
injury Sunday and will be lost to the club for at
least two weeks. Meanwhile, defenceman
Shawn Coultice suffered a separated shoulder
and will be out indefinitely. Lastly, goaltender
Michael Fini suffered from appendicitis and has
spent a week in hospital.
To cover the shortfall on the weekend, de-
fencemen Ryan Annesley and Rob Foster were
fill-ins on the forward lines.
“I’ve never seen anything like it,” said Wilson
of the injury bug that has plagued his team.
Although the Panthers dropped the two out-
ings to fall further off the pace, Wilson was
nonetheless pleased with the effort of his
charges. Pickering had the first-place Waxers on
the run for much of the game. Trailing 3-1 in the
second period, the Panthers rebounded to tie the
game after 40 minutes. A Markham power play
goal in the third period, however, proved deflat-
ing.
Against Collingwood, the Panthers outshot
and outplayed the Blues, but three power-play
goals proved to be the deciding factor.
“Our energy level (in the two games) was
phenomenal,” noted Wilson. “We played with a
lot of spirit and cohesiveness, which I was very
proud of. Right now, we’re playing as well as we
can with the players we have. We’ve competed
very well against the top teams in the league.”
The push is now on to catch the Ajax Axemen
for seventh place in the South Conference stand-
ings. Right now, the Panthers trail the Axemen
by five points, with Ajax having one game in
hand. Pickering has seven games remaining.
“We’re trying to catch Ajax and we want to
move ahead of them in the final week of the sea-
son. That’s our primary objective,” he said.
They host the Oshawa Legionaires at the
Pickering Recreation Complex tonight (Friday)
at 7:30 p.m. On Sunday, the Couchiching Terri-
ers are at the complex for a 7:30 p.m. contest.
