Pickering, harbour
company differ on use
as OMB date looms
on housing issue
BY MARTIN DERBYSHIRE
Staff Writer
PICKERING —One man’s
rusted out old barge is another
man’s piece of working marina
equipment.
At least that’s what one must
conclude after talking to Ward 2
Regional Councillor Mark Hol-
land and Harold Hough, presi-
dent of the Pickering Harbour
Company.
The two just agree to dis-
agree.
“The barges are rusting mon-
uments to the bay’s neglect,”
Coun. Holland said of several
barges in and around French-
man’s Bay, some of which he
said haven’t moved in over 10
years. “Frenchman’s Bay is sup-
posed to be the jewel of Picker-
ing, we’re building a trail around
it all so people can come and
look out at a bunch of rusted out
old barges. This situation has
come to a head... and, it’s not
just about esthetics. Sailors say
the bay is unnavigable and the
barges may be an environmental
hazard.”
But, Mr. Hough countered
the barges are actually working
marina equipment used to
dredge the bay.

Two cheers for toonie walk
AJAX –– Lord Durham Public School students Stacey Francis (left) and Natasha Hors-
ley get into the spirit of the school’s fund-raising Toonie for Autism Day walk last Fri-
day. More than 65 public and Catholic schools across Durham Region took part in sim-
ilar events. Lord Durham students raised $704 for the cause.

Creative students offer creative school solutions
Think Bowl
competitions
tackle bullying, local
skateboard facilities
BY MIKE RUTA
Staff Writer
DURHAM —Bullying in-
cidents rose sharply Wednes-
day at St. Matthew the Evange-
list Catholic School — on the
performance stage, that is.
Catholic elementary stu-
dents were at the Whitby
school recently to take part in
the Durham Catholic District
School Board’s Fifth Annual
Think Bowl Competition.
Co-ordinator Debbie
Lukow explained Think Bowl
encourages students to reason
creatively, use higher-level
thinking skills and work to-
gether to solve a problem they
receive the day of the competi-
tion. After working out and
submitting their solution on
paper, students then act it out
on stage and are marked on the
two components.
Four-student teams are
formed after tryouts or compe-
titions at the school level.
In five years, Ms. Lukow
said the organizing committee
has seen a lot of improvement
in students’ work as they be-
come more accustomed to the
format.
“They’ve taken back all
they’ve learned in previous
years, taken it to heart and tried
to integrate some song and
dance and mime,” she said in
an interview. “The quality of
what we’ve seen has im-
proved.”
The team from St. James
Catholic School in Ajax took
the gold medal in the junior
competition for Grade 4 to 6
students, earning a spot in the
provincial finals in June.
Meanwhile the school’s inter-
mediate team, up against other
Grade 7 and 8 students, picked
up silver — not bad for the
school’s first year in the event.
“We practised three times;
we gave them a problem, a sce-
nario, and they had to do the
preparation as if they were at
Think Bowl,” said junior team
co-coach and teacher Rhonda
Whelten.
On competition day, their
scenario was to find a commu-
nity approach to skateboard-
ing, considering many business
people find skateboarders a
nuisance.
Ms. Whelten said a student
playing a businessman in the
performance “came up with an
idea that he could turn a piece
of land he owns into a skate-
board facility for young peo-
ple”.
Teacher Megan McNee also
coached the junior team, com-
prised of Emmett Murphy,
John Skinner, Rebecca Viegas
and Jason Batelaan.
The intermediate team from
St. Christopher Catholic
School in Oshawa won its
event. They placed third at the
provincials last year.

Pickering debates
inclusion of 5,000
acres in study
BY MARTIN DERBYSHIRE
Staff Writer
PICKERING —The City
could soon open up for devel-
opment all or part of 5,000
acres of farmland currently
protected by agricultural ease-
ments.
Ward 2 Regional Councillor
Mark Holland said council is
in danger of opening up an
agricultural preserve to consid-
eration for development if the
area isn’t left out of a planned
growth management study for
north Pickering.
“I’m concerned council
may be opening up the ag pre-
serve for development,” he
said. “Through the growth
management study, all lands
would be contemplated for de-
velopment, including the agri-
cultural assembly.”
Council directed staff in
February to complete the
study, which would provide the
basis for an Official Plan re-
view.
The area to be included is
from the Seaton lands (Brock
Road) in the east to the
York/Durham Town Line in the
west, Hwy. 7 to the north and
the Canadian Pacific Railway
line to the south.
The preserve, created in
1999 by placing agricultural
easements on most of the 5,000
acres before the Province sold
the lands to private interests, is
included in that area.
The purpose of the ease-
ments, which require that prop-
erties in the area be used for
agricultural purposes only, was
to save the area as farmland.
However, when the Province
put the properties on the mar-
ket, local farmers claimed
much of it was too expensive to
make it viable as farmland, and
developers eventually pur-
chased it.
“Developers purchased the
farmland with development in-
terests and will be pushing to
develop the ag preserve,” said
Coun. Holland. “The study
will cost around $500,000
which is going to be paid for
MAURICE BRENNER
‘It will be an independent
study and they will report
to the City.’
PICKERING –– Police
shut down five more drug
houses in Ajax and Pickering
Monday.
Durham Regional Police
drug enforcement officers and
the Port Hope Police Service,

“We use them from time to time for
various jobs,” he said. “There are some
in the north end of the bay that have
been sitting there for some time, but oth-
ers do get used from time to time...
we’re not sure which ones we’ll need
and we can’t just take them out only to
bring them back in.”
Four years ago Pickering council
passed a resolution asking the Toronto
and Region Conservation Authority to
investigate the barges and have them re-
moved. So far, no action has been taken.
Coun. Holland has maintained clean-
ing up the bay, which is owned solely by
the harbour company, is an integral part
of creating a “vibrant and viable” water-
front. In January of this year Pickering
council took the first steps towards cre-
ating that vision by amending the City’s
Official Plan to implement the Liverpool
Road South Detailed Review.
Certain lands along Liverpool Road,
south of Annland Street, were redesig-
nated and design guidelines were estab-
lished to create a ‘Great Lakes nautical
village’ theme on the east shore of
Frenchman’s Bay. The idea was to cre-
ate a village with shops, restaurants, and
cafes surrounding the existing Pickering
Harbour Company-owned marina and
the millennium square and boardwalk.
An initial plan for 17 townhouses
with commercially convertible ground
floors on the east side of Liverpool Road
across from the marina was also ap-
proved. However, council and the Pick-
ering Harbour Company could not reach
agreement on rezoning the existing ma-
rina. The harbour company wants to
build 66 townhouses on the north end of
the marina lands, with eight of the 26
units fronting Liverpool to include com-
mercial ground floors.
Under the plan, Mr. Hough says, the
“messy” side of the marina operation —
boat cleaning and maintenance —
would move across the street.
Council has countered all 26 homes
fronting Liverpool should be commer-
cially convertible and no other town-
houses should be built. In addition, it
wants the existing marina left were it is,
maintaining it’s another important as-
pect of building a tourist node around
the bay. The two sides are to go before
the OMB May 10 and June 10.
challenged the teams to come up with
a creative plan to deal with bullying.
The St. Christopher team, comprised
of Heather McKim, Dante Labriola,
Geneva Winterink and Michelle
McPhee, proposed victims first try
and ignore bullies, then negotiate with
them, and if that fails, go to an author-
ity figure for help.
Team co-coach and teacher Renata
McLeod said the students’ experience
was the deciding factor in their fine
showing.
“We did a lot of practising, but it’s
their third year doing it, the same four
children, and they’re very involved in
a lot of dramatic things at school, and
I guess they’re definitely not shy,” she
said.
Teacher Ken Young also coached
the team with help from colleague
Lisa Evans.
The team from St. Paul Catholic
School in Whitby proposed scaring
kids straight with an overnight trip to
the fictional Oswald State Correction-
al Facility to stop them from bullying.
In their scenario, the bully is con-
fronted by a no-nonsense prison
guard, played by Grade 8 student
Peter Camposeo,
who warns bully-
ing is the begin-
ning of a chain of
behaviour that
leads to impris-
onment.
“You’re going
to start commit-
ting crimes,
you’re going to
start abusing
people and
you’re going to
end up in jail,” he
thunders.
Grade 8 stu-
dent Warren
Mouck played an
Oswald inmate,
and in an inter-
view explained
bullies “would
see what it would
be like as an in-
mate” and be de-
terred.
“Just going
into the princi-
pal’s office does-
n’t solve the
problem,” he
added.
The host team
from St. Matthew
the Evangelist
finished second
in the junior
event, while the
Holy Redeemer
Catholic School
team from Pick-
ering finished
third.
In the inter-
mediate contest,
the St. Bernard
Catholic School
team from Whit-
by placed third.
Twenty-nine
teams from 17
schools took
part.

Aside from gas, tires are one of the
biggest expenses for most car and truck
owners. And with the slew of new
specialized “performance” tires out there, the
cost of tires is only increasing. So you might
as well get as much out of these four costly
rubber wheels as you possibly can.
Hopefully you know by now that keeping
a close eye on the air pressure level is one
way to extend the life of your tires. But
that’s not the only thing you can do. You
should also have your tires aligned and
rotated twice a year.
Aligning your tires will keep them
parallel and prevent them from wearing out
prematurely. It also allows you to have better
control of your vehicle. While an alignment
can require additional repairs such as to the
car’s steering, this is the price you
sometimes have to pay to ensure your safety.
In some instances you will be able to tell
if your tires are not properly aligned. For
example, your vehicle might tend to veer off
in one direction, or you might feel like you
don’t really have full control of the vehicle.
In addition, if your tires are starting to wear
out more toward the inside or the outside of
the tread, then it is high time for you to have
your tires aligned.
But poorly aligned tires aren’t always that
obvious. That’s why you should have them
aligned each spring and fall without fail. And
be particularly careful in winter. Snow can
be abrasive and cause poorly aligned tires to
wear out more quickly than they should.
Proper alignment will make your tires last longer

Lakefront
municipalities in
Durham may not see
any of provincial
funding
BY MARTIN DERBYSHIRE
Staff Writer
DURHAM —The provin-
cial government is pumping
$50 million into cleaning up
the Great Lakes around On-
tario, but Durham Region and
its lakeside municipalities may
not see any of it.
“We’re certainly pleased
about the announcement,
pleased that the provincial
government sees the problems
and is taking steps to address
them,” said Russ Powell, chief
administrative officer of the
Central Lake Ontario Conser-
vation Authority (CLOCA).
“The only problem I have is
that none of that money is
coming to Durham Region.”
In what would be her final
move as environment minister,
Elizabeth Witmer, the
Province’s new deputy pre-
mier, announced a $50-million
investment in cleaning up the
Great Lakes and protecting the
province’s “unique coastal en-
vironment”.
The money will be directed
towards “priority projects” to
support the cleanup of contam-
inated sediment in 16 “areas of
concern”.
Environment Ministry
spokesman John Steele con-
firmed none of the 16 areas of
concern are in Durham, but
added part of the $50 million
would be going to other
cleanup efforts and may yet
find it’s way to Durham.
Along with the 16 areas of
concern, the cash will also be
used to increase the monitor-
ing and reporting of water and
sediment quality, as well as the
health of fish and wildlife in
and around the Great Lakes;
reduce the amount of harmful
pollutants, such as mercury,
that find their way
into the lakes; inte-
grate information
from governments and
stakeholders to ensure
better decisions are
made and appropriate
actions taken; and to
make progress on habitat reha-
bilitation, conservation and
protection.
Mr. Steele said it’s “too
early to tell” if any areas in
Durham Region qualify in
those areas.
However, while Mr. Powell
said he sees the need in sever-
al areas around the province,
he wonders why no Durham
projects have been named a
priority.
“I’ve heard that money is
going to 16 areas all over the
Great Lakes and none in
Durham,” he said. “They’ve
spread it all around, but none
in Durham although we have
some areas where there are
concerns.”
Mr. Powell said the federal
government has concerns over
water quality in the Oshawa
Harbour and Environment
Canada has done studies indi-
cating there are “some prob-
lems” in the area.
“We need to look at it and
ask if the situation is such that
Oshawa Harbour should be on
the list.
“And, is there the provin-
cial and federal money avail-
able?” he asked.
Mr. Steele said it would be
six months to a year before
any decisions are made on the
rest of the funding.

strike
continues

DURHAM —
Hot, smoggy
days may seem
a long way off
but, when they
do arrive, you’ll
know about it.
The current
strike by the On-
tario Public Ser-
vice Employees
Union won’t
stop the Envi-
ronment Min-
istry from alert-
ing the public to
bad air days,
said ministry
spokesman John
Steele.
“We can still
issue smog
alerts,” Mr.
Steele said.
With the offi-
cial smog sea-
son starting in
May, he said the
ministry is pre-
pared, even
though only 50
per cent of its
monitoring sta-
tions are up and
running because
of the strike.
And while
smog alerts and
advisories will
be issued as
needed, specific
readings may be
difficult to post
on the govern-
ment Web site or
on the hotline
due to the strike,
he said.
Smog alerts
are issued three
days in advance,
indicating
there’s a 50-per
cent chance of
poor air quality
in the following
three days.
Smog advisories
are issued 24
hours in ad-
vance of a po-
tentially bad air
day.
The alerts
will go out to
media outlets
and to people
who have regis-
tered on the Web
site for the ser-
vice, Mr. Steele
said.
The recent
hot days in mid-
April were just
hot and not
smoggy, he
added.

PET IDENTIFICATION HELPS REUNITE FAMILIES
Between January ‘01 and January ‘02 the Pickering, Ajax, Whitby Animal Services
Centre took in 363 stray cats and 295 stray dogs. The staff at the Centre was able
to reunite 22 of the cats and 137 of the dogs with their families. Moments such as
these are full of emotion and joy for all concerned - the pets, their families and the
Animal Services staff.
But we still all dream of the day that we can reunite EVERY lost pet with its family.
Pets, unfortunately, cannot speak for themselves. We need your help to I.D. your
pet.
Lack of pet identification is a problem that Animal Services faces every day. Please
don’t assume that because you have an indoor cat or a fenced yard that you don’t
need I.D. for your cat or dog. The number of lost animals that don’t find their way
home speaks for itself.

by the developers. That raises ques-
tions. Why would they pay for the
study if they’re not going to get some-
thing out of the back end?”
However, Ward 1 Regional Coun-
cillor Maurice Brenner said all of north
Pickering needs to be looked at as a
part of the study if the City is to avoid
“cookie-cutter” planning.
“To do a proper, comprehensive
study, everything’s got to be on the
table.”
Coun. Brenner added having the de-
velopers pay for the study is not an un-
common practice.
“Having landowners opt in to pay
for a study is nothing new for Picker-
ing and just because they contribute
the dollars doesn’t predetermine the
outcome,” he said. “It will be an inde-
pendent study and they will be report-
ing to the City, not to developers... I
wouldn’t prejudge at this point.”
Coun. Brenner said allowing the
agricultural preserve to be left out of
the study would prevent the City from
looking at all the options for transit
corridors and road networks in the
north, but added the plan is not to do
away with the agricultural preserve all
together.
“We cannot isolate the ag preserve,”
he said. “I’m not suggesting it be
scrapped all together, but we need to
look at what’s there... if it’s not being
used as agricultural, if it’s just sitting
there, maybe something should be
done with it, but only if it makes sense
and only if it’s not agricultural.”
Coun. Brenner said the study is an
opportunity for Pickering and the local
community to work together in plan-
ning a “utopian society” in the north
with open space, agricultural, rural and
urban land uses “all compact, together
in one plan.
“I’m tired of the half-assed plan-
ning approach throughout the (Greater
Toronto Area). This is our last oppor-
tunity,” he said.
“If we screw this up we’re screwing
up a legacy.”
Council is expected to debate the
parameters of the study at the May 13
planning committee meeting.

“My Amazing Weight Loss Secret!”
Carol Hooper Reports Astounding
95LB. Weight Loss
My name is Carol Hooper. I do companion care for older adults.
Two years ago my size dropped from a baggy XXL to a petite size six.
I shed 95 pounds without dieting! I’ve kept my weight off ever since. It’s
been effortless! This is my real-life story. I will reveal how I did it. Why
I’m convinced my success is permanent. Why I think you can do it too.
Pain & Unhappiness
I was overweight nearly my entire life. Everything revolved around
food. I was obsessed. I turned to food for comfort. It was my support
when I was sad, tired or happy. I couldn’t control it. I spent my life living
to eat.
Carrying around an extra 95 pounds is a lot of work. I was always
tired. One or two naps a day was my routine. I looked for excuses to stay
home. I was hiding. There’s no way I could be happy like that. I was
heavy, miserable and uncomfortable.
My weight embarrassed me. I tried everything to lose my weight. I
suffered through pre-packaged food and chalky shakes. I counted,
weighed, measured and starved. I’ve done all the weird diets. The
grapefruit, high protein, low fat, to name a few. Any crazy diet you can
think of, I tried it. Diets don’t work.
I lost my weight once with medication. I gained it all back plus 70
pounds.
Dramatic Results
When my weight exceeded my limit, I was desperate.
I discovered Positive Changes Hypnosis on WNIS talk radio. They
said I could have a free hypnosis screening.
I was impressed right off the bat. The staff is friendly and caring. I
expected a grueling sales pitch. There was none. The screening was fun
and informative. There was no pressure. No need to sign a contract. The
folks at PCH had my best interest at heart. I felt it then. I know it now. I
signed up.
To be honest, I didn’t lose my weight right away. I didn’t mind. My life
was improving in astounding ways. It was easy to stay motivated.
Suddenly my weight started dropping off me. The last 55 pounds melted
off in five short months.
Now my dress size is six petite. I lost my weight without dieting. No
hunger, cravings or binges. It was fast and easy. I’ve exceeded my
expectations.
Pride and Joy
I am extremely proud of my accomplishment. I can’t take all the credit
though. Hypnosis made it easy.
I have not had to deal with
cravings and binges.
No messing with diets,
pills or pre-packaged food.
Hypnosis made weight loss
simple and straightforward.
I recommend Positive
Changes Hypnosis daily.
I recommend it to
everyone. At first people
say, “Hypnosis? I don’t
know.” I tell them to take a
good look at me. I’m living
testimony and a two-year success
story. Hypnosis works!
Overweight hurts. I know. I
was there. Don’t let past
failures stand in the way of
your happiness. Call Positive
Changes Hypnosis. They won’t charge
you a penny to find out if hypnosis is
for you. There’s no pressure. No
obligation. If they don’t think hypnosis
is right for you, they’ll tell you so.
Don’t be left to wonder what might
have been … Pick up the phone and
call now.

miserable and
uncomfortable.”

Ajax currency, c. 1960s
‘The Town of Ajax has minted its own money’, was the
headline in several papers just prior to the start of the
1963 Canadian National Exhibition. In both 1962 and
1963, the Ajax Industrial Commission set up a booth at
the CNE and handed out commemorative coins. This
was done as a promotion to try and draw new business-
es to the town. The 1962 coins created quite a stir in the
international collecting circles after being featured in
the Coin World magazine. Requests for the coins came
from such distant points as Indo-China, Kentucky and
Europe. The 1963 coins were just as popular. The com-
mission did not participate in the 1964 CNE, however a
limited set of coins were issued and sold for $1.50 each.

Proud members of
Premier Ernie Eves is acting
as if he is searching the world for
new policies, but it is more like-
ly he will wind up with some
that have already sprung up in
his own backyard.
The new Progressive Conser-
vative premier, who needs to pull
his party up from low polls, said
he wants to talk to many, includ-
ing those with different views
and says he might learn some-
thing.
Mr. Eves has already started
his government talking with
teachers and labour, a departure
from his predecessor, Mike Har-
ris, who avoided unions as if he
feared they were after him for
dues.
He also has a bundle of sug-
gestions made by members of his
own party who were his rivals in
the acrimonious leadership con-
test he won. Mr. Eves will not
look back on that campaign
fondly, because he spent most of
it being accused by his rivals of
lacking ideas and not being a
true conservative.
But the new premier would be
hurting himself if he let this pre-
clude him from looking at the
proposals made by his rivals. All
were top ministers and their
thoughts represent the party’s
collective wisdom.
The new leader will totally
disregard some suggestions,
such as Jim Flaherty’s idea to
make it illegal to sleep on the
streets. Mr. Eves said at the time
making homelessness a crime is
not the answer to the problem.
He is not likely either to snap
up Mr. Flaherty’s plan to sell the
Liquor Control Board of Ontario
and TVOntario. The premier has
said he has yet to hear a case
made for selling the LCBO,
which brings in $1.2 billion a
year for taxpayers, and his com-
panion, Isabel Bassett, is chair-
man of TVO and seems to like
her job.
Mr. Eves similarly cannot be
expected to adopt Tony
Clement’s idea elections be held
on fixed dates every four years to
make the political process clear-
er and fairer, because one of his
current preoccupations is when
he should call an election that
will give most advantage to him-
self and least to his opponents.
But Mr. Eves could look at
Chris Stockwell’s proposal the
Province place a moratorium for
two years on more changes to the
school system, which under Mr.
Harris had to cope with up-
heavals including a new curricu-
lum, changes in teachers’ work
rules and huge funding short-
ages.
The new education minister
and deputy premier, Elizabeth
Witmer, has already said she
wants to foster better relations
with teachers before implement-
ing more changes and a formal
moratorium would reinforce this.
Ms. Witmer suggested in the
campaign the Province subsidize
housing for the poor by provid-
ing shelter allowances for low-
income residents who spend
more than 50 per cent of their in-
comes on rent. The Tories’Com-
mon Sense Revolution promised
rental subsidies it did not deliver.
Ms. Witmer also went further
and said Ontario should drop its
reluctance and accept a generous
federal offer to provide $244
million over five years to con-
struct affordable housing if the
Province matches it.
Mr. Clement suggested
putting more effort into strength-
ening securities laws including
those at the national and interna-
tional levels, worthwhile be-
cause many investors are so
scared by recent horror stories
they are unwilling to get back in
the market.
The health minister said the
Province should convert its pub-
licly-owned, coal-fired, electrici-
ty generation plants to cleaner-
burning natural gas, which
would be about the biggest sin-
gle step it could take to reduce
air pollution. Mr. Eves would
win applause by putting them on
a strict timetable.
Ms. Witmer said the Tories,
who cut taxes more than any be-
fore them, should not cut more at
the expense of public services.
Mr. Eves has an opportunity to
endorse this and say his priority
is what should be the current
clarion call in government, hold-
ing on to and improving ser-
vices.
Several of Mr. Eves’s rivals,
and particularly Mr. Stockwell
as a former Speaker of the legis-
lature, proposed reforms that
would allow MPPs more free-
dom to express personal and
constituents’ views.
The U.S. Senate has just re-
jected President George W.
Bush’s plan to allow oil develop-
ment in an Arctic wildlife refuge
when some in his own party
balked, a reminder there is no
such independence here.
The campaign also revealed
taxpayers are paying a longtime
Tory worker an indefensible
$300,000-a-year as an aide to the
health minister and Mr. Eves
would do his party a lot of good
if he could say he has cured this
problem. The new premier can
learn a lot from his rivals.
Opponents’ ideas rival new premier’s
Unsuccessful Tories represent a wealth of policy suggestions for Eves
It’s springtime when the living is easy and thoughts turn to
love, tending your garden, watching the birds and keeping an
eye out for leather-jacketed bikers on their Harley Davidson
hogs.
At least the citizens of Durham Region should be mighty
concerned about a biker turf war, according to police
spokesman Sergeant Paul Malik.
Sgt. Malik said the chance of violence between the Hells
Angels and their archrivals, the Bandidos, “appears to be es-
calating and police believe rival gangs have begun to arm
themselves in anticipation of future conflicts”.
Concerns about the annual Hells Angels’ pilgrimage to
Caesarea in Scugog are heightened in the wake of the Hells-
Bandidos battle for supremacy in southern Ontario.
The Caesarea ride is this weekend, and in most years, po-
lice keep an eye on proceedings and little to no trouble takes
place. It’s hoped that occurs once again this weekend.
But the wider worry for police and citizens is how the biker
battles play out over time.
Since the Hells Angels made their way into Ontario a few
years ago, the scene has been set for a battle between the An-
gels and Bandidos. The latter gang was known as the Rock
Machine and murder and mayhem became commonplace
when the Hells and the Rock went to war in Quebec over the
past 10 to 15 years. Hundreds of people, many of them inno-
cent bystanders, were caught in the crossfire.
Could such a disaster happen right here? Last December a
Bandido was stabbed outside an Oshawa strip club and Ban-
didos, on their club’s Web site, have been vowing revenge for
the attack. A Bandidos affiliate, the Outlaws, may have plans
to establish themselves in Durham. Meanwhile, the Hells An-
gels have been quickly collecting members in the region, have
plenty of so-called ‘hang around’associates and are in charge
of puppet clubs here. The menace is growing.
It’s an unsettling scenario that seems a recipe for inevitable
violence. “There is definitely tension building up. It’s a lot of
escalation and speculation right now. We’re not trying to
alarm people, we just want to make them aware, give the pub-
lic a heads-up,” said Detective Constable Dan McKinnon of
the outlaw motorcycle gang squad.
Increased funding and law enforcement resources dedicat-
ed to dealing with biker activities have provided police with
the manpower and the equipment to carry out their duties.
Offences carried out by bikers must be met with arrests and
stiff prosecutions to follow. Armed with the backing they
need, our police need to make Durham Region such a miser-
able place for bikers the Hells and their rivals will take their
criminal activities elsewhere.

Poland missing

To the editor:
I’d like everyone to know
Michael T. Wall, ‘The Singing
Newfoundlander’ who lives in
Pickering, is still a big hit with
Polish radio audiences.
He’s a household name here
and his most requested song is
‘Daddy’s Girl’. I’ll never forget
his successful show in Warsaw,
Poland, back in 1984, when he
walked on stage waving a big
six-foot Canadian flag and he
was so happy and proud to do it.
He sang most of his beautiful
Newfoundland favourites and he
got a standing ovation. He signed
many of his pictures and distrib-
uted maps and leaflets of New-
foundland. He’s so proud of his
Newfoundland roots. Both his
daughters are talented too.
We hope he’ll come back here
to entertain his Polish fans. We
love him and his music.

Why the large
discrepancy in
salary increases?
To the editor:
Re: ‘Hundreds made six-figure
salaries in Durham in 2001,’
story, April 5.
Who is minding the regional
budget, which just increased
again?
In April 1999, your paper re-
ported the chief administrative
office of Durham Region, Garry
Cubitt, made $127,724. On April
5, 2002, your paper reported he
made $175,110, an increase of
37 per cent.
The commissioner of finance,
Jim Clapp, is reported as making
$112,490 in 1999 and earning
$160,843 in 2002 for an increase
of 43 per cent.
Compare these increases with
that of the planning commission-
er, who went from $113,373 to
$128,390, an increase of 13.2 per
cent.
That’s quite a difference.
Both the CAO and the finance
commissioner have the top re-
sponsibility for the regional bud-
get. Who looked after who and
were the taxpayers well-served
by these increases?
Check your tax bill for
starters.

HAVE YOU
LICENCED YOUR
PET???
The City of Pickering has now commenced a
door-to-door campaign promoting the sale of
2002 dog and cat licences. The City
representative should present proper
identification to you. They are not Animal
Control Officers and have no authority to fine
you for failure to licence. They will, however,
provide information to the City on all residents
refusing to licence their pets.
CAT OWNERS should note that City of
Pickering By-law 5728/00 requires all cats to
be licenced and leashed when off the owner’s
property.
DOG OWNERS should note that the same
By-law prohibits the keeping of more than two
dogs in any one household.
Dogs and cats are important members of your
family. Animal licences identify your pets and
ensure that, should they become lost, they can
be returned to their rightful home.
A SMALL PRICE TO PAY TO KEEP
YOUR PET SAFE!
REGISTRATION FEES
Pursuant to City of Pickering By-law 5728/00,
all dog and cat owners must register their pets
on a yearly basis. You could be charged if you
fail to purchase the required licence. Yearly
fees are as follows:
Male or female dog or cat $25.00
Male or female dog or cat
with microchip implant $20.00
Spayed or neutered dog or cat $15.00
Spayed or neutered dog or cat with
microchip implant $10.00
QUESTIONS
Any questions concerning dog or cat
registration tags
should be directed to the
Animal Control Centre
at (905) 427-8737
Working Smoke
Alarms Save Lives
Test Your Smoke Alarms
Smoke alarms are
lifesavers -- but only if they
work. The Pickering Fire
Services reminds you to
test your smoke alarms
each month by pushing the
alarm test button. If you
have difficulty reaching
your alarms, use a broom
handle or a cane to gently
press the test button for
30 seconds. If the alarm
doesn’t sound, replace the
battery or the alarm
immediately. Remember,
only a working smoke
alarm can save your life.
Contact the
Pickering Fire Services at
905-420-4628, or, email
fire@city.pickering.on.ca
for more information about
smoke alarms.
One Smoke Alarm
is Not Enough
Most fatal fires occur at
night, while people are
asleep. Poisonous gases
and smoke from a fire can
numb the senses in a very
short time. That’s why every
home needs smoke alarms
to wake you up in time to
escape. The Pickering Fire
Services recommends you
install a smoke alarm on
every level of your home
and outside sleeping areas.
Test your smoke alarms
regularly to make sure they
work and change the
batteries at least once a
year. Remember: only a
working smoke alarm can
save your life.
Contact the
Pickering Fire Services at
905-420-4628, or, email
fire@city.pickering.on.ca
for more information about
smoke alarms.

Two for the
Show expands
entertainment for
fans in the stands
BY AL RIVETT
Staff Editor
AJAX —After a success-
ful season of Toronto Rock
‘n’ roll, an Ajax musical duo
will keep fans of Canada’s
newest football team enter-
tained this summer and fall.
Two for the Show, con-
sisting of Allan Mackay and
Rob Tyler, kept Toronto
Rock fans rocking in the
stands last season during
timeouts at National
Lacrosse League games at
the Air Canada Centre. How-
ever, the performances aren’t
finished for the musical duo.
They’ve been hired by Rock
owner Brad Watters to enter-
tain in the stands during
games for his newest sports
property — the expansion
Ottawa Renegades of the
Canadian Football League.
Both Mackay and Tyler
noted it will be on an even
bigger scale than Rock
games, as they’re expecting
crowds to be in the 35,000
range at Renegades’ home
games at Frank Clair Stadi-
um.
“It’ll be three times as big,
so it will be a challenge,” said
Tyler. They’ll play at a Rene-
gades’ exhibition game June
13, followed by the team’s
CFL debut June 28.
“It will be cutting edge for
football to have us moving
around and playing in the
crowd. We’re the only band
that does it in lacrosse and in
football,” added Tyler.
The duo has been a main-
stay at Rock games for the
past two seasons, playing and
promoting the team’s games,
as well as being the musical
focal point at a number of
other team-sponsored, fan-
friendly events.
This season held special
significance for the duo as
the Rock captured the
league’s Champions Cup
over the Albany Attack, cul-
minating in a huge celebra-
tion for team and staff at
Wayne Gretzky’s restaurant
in Toronto.
“It was a really busy year
for us. Now, it’s full steam
ahead,” said Tyler.
With a wireless setup that
allows the duo to roam about
the stadium, playing guitar
and singing for pockets of
people in the various sec-
tions, Two for the Show has
been an unqualified hit at
Rock games. Tyler said the
duo’s versatility has been its
biggest ally in keeping the
fans and the team’s manage-
ment happy.
“I don’t think every band
could do it. Our emceeing
abilities and our versatility
has merged well with what
they need. We’ve been lucky
enough to find an element
where we can use our abili-
ties that we’ve worked on for
so many years,”said Mackay.
Except for the some
minor technical glitches, the
duo’s time entertaining in the
stands went amazingly well
this past Rock season, said
Mackay. One particular time,
however, the band almost
didn’t make it to a game.
“On game days, the time
is tight. We go in and set up
our gear. Right in the middle
of this our van got towed,”re-
called Tyler. “But, we were
able to recover in time. We
paid the $160 fine and got
back in time.”
In addition to the Rene-
gades games, Two for the
Show is also scheduled to
play in several ‘rev-up par-
ties’ in advance of the Mol-
son Indy in Toronto and the
Vancouver Indy this summer.
They played at one of the
parties at the Molson Indy
last summer.
The band is on the Inter-
net at

Artists
weigh in
on visions
of Camp X
DURHAM ––
An examination
of intriguing and
mysterious local
history has found
its way to the
Robert
McLaughlin
Gallery in Os-
hawa in the form
of a new exhibi-
tion, ‘Finding
Camp X: Con-
temporary Con-
siderations of an
Enigma.’
Four artists -
Steven Frank of
Oshawa, Sean
McQuay from
Whitby, Anitra
Hamilton and
Nina Levitt, both
from Toronto -
have shed some
imaginative light
on this secret part
of Durham Re-
gion’s past.
The Second
World War school
for spies and
communications
establishment
was shrouded in
secrecy. Its loca-
tion on a stretch
of Lake Ontario
farmland strad-
dling what today
is the border be-
tween Whitby
and Oshawa was
unknown even to
area residents.
One of the intelli-
gence officers to
train there was
James Bond cre-
ator Ian Fleming
and the covert op-
eration was run
by Sir William
Stephenson,
code-named ‘In-
trepid.’
The ‘Finding
Camp X’ exhibit
is on now at the
gallery and will
run until June 16.
Two for the Show members Allan Mackay and Rob Tyler take their irrev-
erent show on the road this summer when they’ll entertain Ottawa foot-
ball fans during home games there.

PICKERING —A Dunbarton High
School Spartans athlete ran past the
competition to mine multiple gold
medals at the Queen’s University Track
Alumni Invitational Meet in Kingston
last Saturday.
Nikkita Holder, 14, competing in the
midget girls’ division, set a new meet
record in one event and won a whopping
four gold medals in all at the high-cali-
bre meet. To top off a perfect day, she
received the Jim and Mary Courtright
Award as the
meet’s most out-
standing female
athlete.
Holder set the
meet record en
route to winning
the midget girls’
80-metre hurdles
in a time of 12.58
seconds. She
also ran to gold
in the 100m and
200m events.
Her final gold
came when she
anchored Dun-
barton’s midget
girls’ 4-x-100m
relay team to a
victory. Also on
the team were
Ta ra-Lea
Bowsell,
Stephani Hadi
and Miko Mau-
rice.
In addition to
running for Dun-
barton, Holder is
also a member of
the Oshawa Le-
gion Track Club
where she has set
two indoor meet
records in the
midget 60m hur-
dles.
Holder will

MOWER MADNESS
The Forecaddie took in a showing
of a new film titled “The Greens-
keeper.” The plot, such as it is,
involves a goonlike superintendent
with a pro-
clivity for
inventively
using the tools
of his trade.
Te xas Rangers
relief pitch-
er/psycho
John Rocker
embodies a
ghost-like fig-
ure who goes
on a rampage
against members of his country club.
Among the lasting images in this
campy spoof of the “Friday the 13th”
are a rotary mower decapitation,
impromptu chest surgery with a hole-
cutter and an irrigation head coupled
into a chest that spurts blood.
Promotional material declares that
“It’s par for the corpse.” Let’s just say
that when director Kevin Greene
yelled “cut,” it was the start of the
action, not the end.
AUGUSTA DAYDREAM
The Forecaddie left Augusta with
this lasting image:Arnold Palmer
teeing off in a morning practice
round, then mischievously eyeing the
rigid “Use One Ball Only” sign at
Augusta National after hitting a dis-
mal first drive on No. 1. After wit-
nessing Palmer’s poor shot, a specta-
tor wisely
yelled to the
King,
“A rnold,
members can
hit mulli-
gans.” To
which
Palmer, smil-
ing as he
reached for a
second ball
and placed it
on a peg,
replied, “You’re damn right.”
TAP-INS AND LIP-OUTS
Here’s a new book with a revela-
tion sure to emit a significant buzz
across the golf world: In “Karrie
Webb,”authored by Aussie sports-
writer Charles Happell of The Age
newspaper, Happell reveals that
We bb’s companion is fellow LPGA
player Kelly Robbins. Happell writes
that Webb’s break-up with her one-
time caddie and fiance,Todd
Haller,still causes “a lot of bad
blood” between the two Australian
families (Webb’s longtime instruc-
tor is Haller’s uncle). The book
also makes public the knowledge
that Webb
and
Robbins
have had a
relation-
ship for four
years despite
the U.S.
Women’s
Open cham-
pion’s efforts
to keep her
private life “a
well-guarded fortress that remains
strictly off-limits to pesky media
types.”

TRIVIA
At 17, Retief Goosen was
struck by lighting on a golf
course. All his clothes,
including shoes, were burned
off and the resulting health
problems kept him out of the
game for several months.
Advertising Feature Distributed by Knight Ridder/Tribune
eff Julian’s handshake is firm, exaggerated perhaps
because he wants you to know that he’s still strong.
But truth be known, when he hits his golf ball into
rough of any consequence, he doesn’t have the
strength to advance it far.
“Five or six years ago, I could hit it harder,” Julian says.
“But I’m 40. I’m getting old.”
Those who meet Julian for the first time, and are aware
that there’s a more complicated explanation to his eroding
skills than advancing age, aren’t sure what to expect. Julian
has amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, more commonly known as
Lou Gehrig’s Disease. There is no cure. Once stricken with
ALS, which destroys the brain’s ability to communicate with
muscles, the victim’s life expectan-
cy is two to five years. Julian
learned of his fate only last October.
All Julian has ever wanted to do
is play golf. He walked on at
Clemson because he wanted to
compete. He passed up opportuni-
ties to be a club pro at prestigious
courses in New England for the
same reason.
Above all else, Julian is a com-
petitor.
The week after the Masters, he
played in the PGA Tour’s
Wo rldCom Classic on a sponsor’s exemption. Although he
shot 74-74 and missed the cut by six shots, it wasn’t for lack
of focus. When Julian is on the course, he makes a superhu-
man effort to block out everything but the task at hand. He
says the fact that he’s dying doesn’t cross his mind.
“I’m busy doing what I’ve always done, my normal rou-
tine,” he says. “It keeps me active and doing something I’d be
doing anyway. It keeps me motivated and looking ahead. I
love it, the need for competition.”
He always has been a player, albeit on the
fringes. He never made the starting five in
three years at Clemson, yet felt
good enough about his game
to leave school early and
turn professional in 1986.
He knocked around on the
North Atlantic Tour and other
mini-tours (tending bar at
night) before winning the New
England Open in 1995 and the
Nike Tour’s Dominion Open in 1997.
He set what still stands as a Buy.com
Tour rebound record by posting a second-
round 63 and making the cut after opening
with an 82 at the ’97 Carolina Classic.
Three times Julian qualified for the U.S.
Open and twice he earned his PGA Tour card
via Q-School. He failed to keep it both
times, finishing 193rd on the money
list in 1995 and 211th last year.
His career Tour earnings in
54 starts: $110,734.
Julian’s first Tour
appearance this year,
at Pebble Beach,
attracted a great deal of
media attention, which
was fine with him and
his wife, Kimberly.
They’re eager to heighten
awareness about ALS.
Doctors, says Kimberly
Julian, “have not been able to
give many answers when you
ask, ‘Why?’They say, ‘This is
what it is. We don’t know what
causes it. We don’t know how to
cure it. Here’s what equipment
you’ll need to treat it. Now go home
and die.’That’s basically what they
tell you.
“We don’t look at it that way,”
she says. “We have hope that they will find a cure, maybe
tomorrow.”
In reality, though, time is running out. “I tire easily if I
overdo it,” Julian says. “A heavy day really tires me out for
the next day. We have a routine down, nine holes Tuesday and
nine (Wednesday), and that’s it.”
The first symptoms Julian noticed were neck soreness,
slightly impaired speech and difficulty in swallowing. It’s got-
ten worse since Pebble Beach. In addition to fatigue, he has
lost control of facial muscles. His speech isn’t so much
slurred as it sounds like an audio tape on the wrong speed.
Kimberly sometimes answers for him.
But Julian hasn’t lost his sense of humor.
“When I’m out playing,” he says, “it’s the same as before,
not any different. I don’t have to talk while I’m hitting.”
Julian, who also played in the BellSouth Classic,
received exemptions to play at Greensboro the last
week of April and at the Canon Greater Hartford
Open in June. That leaves him with two more
opportunities (non-PGA Tour members can
take seven sponsor exemptions). He’s waiting
for replies from the Memorial, Kemper
Open, Advil Western Open and Buick
Classic, where in 1996 he recorded his
best finish on Tour, tying for 16th.
If all four tournaments offer exemp-
tions, shouldn’t he be able to accept
them all? If ever rules should be
bent, it’s in Julian’s case.
And wouldn’t it be a grand
gesture if the USGA and the
PGA of America offered Julian
exemptions into their major
championships?
There would be no
objections from his
peers. They’ve
shaken his hand,
and felt the grip
of a worthy com-
petitor.
DAVE SEANOR
Golfweek
BY SCOTT GODLEY
Golfweek
Since Tiger Woods stepped onto the PGA
Tour in 1996, interest in golf cards has gone
through the roof. A flawless Tiger Woods
1996 Sports Illustrated for Kids card is priced at
$2,500. According to Todd Mueller, owner of
Todd Mueller Autographs near Dallas, that same
Woods card was sold privately last year for
$100,000.
The impact Woods’ persona has on the price of
a piece of cardboard is apparent. Still, without a
legitimate product designer, golf cards were run-
ning in place. Everything changed in May 2001
when Upper Deck, one of the most visible and
successful faces in the card industry, inked Woods
to a five-year deal for the rights to supply his
autographed memorabilia. One month later, after
gathering 86 more contractual agreements with
PGA Tour players, Upper Deck introduced its first
640-card golf set at the U.S. Open. The cards
were an almost instant hit, selling 7,520 packs in a
week.
“Upper Deck’s partnership with Tiger Woods is
a huge reason why this has a chance of succeed-
ing,” said Golfsmith gifts buyer Matt George.
Before the union of Upper Deck and Woods,
the success of golf cards was spotty at best.
In 1926, golf cards became a blip on the radar
after Lambert and Butler featured Bobby Jones
and Jesse Sweeter in its “Who’s Who in Sports”
set.
Churchman’s cigarettes offered the first com-
plete set within the golf card industry in 1927.
Churchman’s was the first brand to offer special-
ty card subsets.
After Churchman’s left the scene in 1931,
only 10 golf sets were produced over the next
45 years — most of which came through multi-
sport series, Wheaties boxes and cigarette
packs.
In 1981, Donruss became the first card com-
pany to gain a license from the PGA Tour and
supply Jack Nicklaus’ rookie card … 20 years
after the Golden Bear turned pro.
A decade later, Pro Set tried its hand at
golf.
Upper Deck came onto the baseball card
scene in 1989 and immediately built a reputa-
tion as a unique, high-quality product that
spilled over to football and basketball.
“A n ything (Upper Deck) gets into, they do it
big,” said said Pepper Hastings, deputy editor for
Beckett Golf Collector.
While Tiger-mania has some teen-agers tearing
into packs, die-hard golf card collectors are, on
average, older (ages 25 to 50) than those in other
sports.
“I started collecting in 1978 and it got to a
point where my wife said, ‘Enough is enough —
you need to either start a business or quit,’”
Meuller said.
In 1992, Meuller hired artist Bart
Forbes to make 30
lithograph cards for a
set titled “Golf’s
Greatest.” In one
month, Mueller made
$100,000 in sales of
the 1,500-copy set, ini-
tially priced at $200.
Then the lawsuits start-
ed arriving from PGA
Tour players whose
images were used with-
out licensing.
Upper Deck has been
able to use its profits to
put contract problems
out of the picture. The
just-introduced 2002 set
features rookie cards for
Phil Mickelson — 10 years after his 1992 profes-
sional debut — and 17-year-old Ty Tryon.
Ultimately, however, it all comes back to Tiger.
“We probably wouldn’t even have golf cards if
it wasn’t for (Woods),” said Mike Caruso, store
manager for Field of Dreams in Orlando, Fla.
Woods’influence extends to price of a piece of cardboard
