The victim told Durham Re- gional Police he was ambushed by four knife-wielding attackers as he exited a catwalk with friends at Foxwood Trail and Nor- folk Square at 1:15 a.m. They demanded cash and cig- arettes and when the youth said he didn’t have any, he was sur- rounded and attacked, police said. He was beaten and slashed, suffering multiple knife wounds to his back, police said. The at- tackers took off in a blue Pontiac Tempest. The victim was taken to Sun- nybrook Health Science Centre where he was listed in stable condition. He was to be released from hospital Monday. Plant yourself in Frenchman’s Bay this weekend PICKERING — The Frenchman’s Bay Watershed Re- habilitation Project is looking for a few volunteers to get down and dirty.

The Durham District School Board approved its 2001/2002 budget, totalling $420,770,892, at Monday night’s board meet- ing. In keeping the EAs, trustees increased the board’s subsidy of its special-education program to a little more than $2 million above provincial funding. The move was a rejection of staff’s warning that with an expected $2-million cut to the board’s special-education funding from the Province after next year, it is not prudent to maintain the cur- rent level of service. But parents were focused on DOUG ROSS ‘Put a Band-Aid on it tonight and cut off the whole leg next year.’ Pickering cross with Region on rail underpass Councillors want timeline on Brock Road project moved up to next year BY SUSAN O’NEILL Staff Writer PICKERING —The City is calling on the Region to ac- celerate the construction of an underpass at a railway crossing on Brock Road where two peo- ple were killed in a horrific ac- cident last month. “This project has remained a number one priority (for the City),” Ward 3 Regional Coun- cillor Rick Johnson said at Monday’s City council of plans for a “grade separation” at the CPR crossing on Brock Road just south of Taunton Road. Coun. Johnson reported the Region identified a series of improvements to Brock Road, which is a Regional road, about seven years ago, one of which was the grade separation at the train tracks. He told his colleagues Mon- day the preparatory work and an environmental assessment on the project have since been completed and all that is need- ed now is the funding, which totals roughly $7 million. But, the Brock Road project was dropped from the Region’s five-year forecast earlier this year and now isn’t slated to take place until 2006, which Coun. Johnson said is “unac- ceptable. “We want this project One year after Gillian Hadley’s murder, groups work to provide safe haven for women BY SUSAN O’NEILL Staff Writer DURHAM —It was the last day of spring and friends say the young mother of three had planned on spending her Tuesday morning looking for a new home in north Durham in the hope of making a fresh start for herself and her chil- dren. Tragically, Gillian Hadley never had that chance. Around 9 a.m. on June 20, 2000 Ms. Hadley was seen running from her Hillcrest Road home with her estranged husband, Ralph, in pursuit. Alert neighbours intervened when Ms. Hadley was forcibly taken back into the house and, after a brief struggle at the door, rescued their son. When the door was closed once again, Ralph shot and killed Ms. Hadley and then turned the gun on himself. The tragedy shocked the quiet West Shore community in Pickering. And the after- math of the events that took place one year ago today are still being felt throughout the region. The Hadley murder-sui- cide, which will be the subject of a coroner’s inquest in Toronto this fall, prompted a campaign to establish a shelter in west Durham for abused women and their children. The case also raised concerns about the need for more af- fordable housing here and sparked questions about how well the law protects victims of domestic violence. “We need to take some- thing bad and make something good out of it,” Durham Re- gional Police Constable Cheryl Carter, who’s also first vice-president of the Ajax- Pickering Women’s Centre (APWC), told a crowd gath- Gillian Hadley was the picture of happiness the day she married Ralph Hadley. Ralph Hadley wed his sweetheart. Three years later, he would kill her and then himself. A tragic anniversary Cherry Downs proposal nixed by Pickering PICKERING —The On- tario Municipal Board (OMB) is the last hope for the owners of the Cherry Downs Golf and Country Club after their propos- al to build 125 homes was de- feated by Pickering council Monday. Councillors voted 6-1 to turn down the development applica- tion from Cherry Downs Co Venture Ltd. in a decision that was a repeat of the vote at a June 11 committee meeting. And, although Mayor Wayne Arthurs was the only member of council to vote in favour of the housing plan, he told his col- leagues and members of the public Monday he’ll represent the City’s official position when the matter goes to the Region for consideration later this year. “I will certainly be carrying council’s message to the Re- gion,” he said. The application seeking to build 125 homes adjacent to the company’s golf course on 7th Concession Road will be the subject of an OMB hearing slat- ed for November. “I am really proud of you,” Angie Jones, executive director of the Durham Conservation Association, told councillors.

He was fighting for his 11-year-old daughter, Michelle, who has Down’s syndrome and is a Grade 3 student at Highbush Public School. Down’s syndrome children can grow up to be- come self-sufficient in the community, but need the support of an EA to help them get there, he said, chal- lenging the board to find a way to keep the 18 EAs. Business superintendent Ron Trbovich had asked trustees to eliminate the 18 positions now and let staff determine in the fall how many more EAs, if any, need to be added to the system. “The reality is that we do have a different funding for- mula that is still leaving us with a huge shortfall we will have to adjust to,” cautioned Brock-Uxbridge Trustee Nancy Loraine. “We still have another $2 million to go before our special-education budget reflects the funding formula.” She was one of two trustees, in addition to Whit- by Trustee and board chair- man Elizabeth Roy, who voted against retaining the EAs. Whitby Trustee Doug Ross said “a funding formula that is not fair” has put the board in its current position. He supported retaining the EAs, though he warned that doing so would mean more painful cuts to special-educa- tion next year. “Put a Band-Aid on it tonight and cut off the whole leg next year,” he said. Denyse Newton, chair- man of the Down Syndrome Association of Durham Re- gion, said she was “pleased” the board reversed course. “I am scared about next year,” she admitted. To keep the EAs, the board allocated roughly $550,000 from reserves. PARENTAL from page A1 Pickering demands action on rail underpass moved ahead to 2002,” he said, noting the traffic on Brock Road is going to in- crease substantially when Hwy. 407 opens this sum- mer and the underpass is needed sooner rather than later. The CPR crossing was the site of a tragic accident in early May in which Richard Schewe, 31, and his two-year-old daughter Mikaela, were killed in a collision with a train. Durham Regional Police reported they believe Mr. Schewe was distracted while driving because he was talking on a cellphone and didn’t notice the warn- ing lights and barriers were activated at the railway crossing. And, Coun. Johnson said, if the underpass is built then “the opportunity for human error is eliminat- ed”. Ward 3 City Councillor David Pickles noted that in 1999, 102 people across Canada were killed in acci- dents with trains. “I think we need to avoid further tragedies,” said Coun. Pickles. “It is a nec- essary and urgent project.” He added gridlock at the crossing on Brock Road is going to be a “major con- cern if (the project) is not undertaken shortly.” Councillors also agreed Monday to explore any funding opportunities for the project from the senior levels of government and the SuperBuild Corpora- tion.

The Region is one month into its dead bird surveillance pro- gram, which is designed to de- tect the virus. But, there haven’t been any positive results in Durham or in other municipali- ties across the province, officials report. However, the Durham Region Health Department is still ex- pecting the virus to show up here this summer. “They’re still predicting that,” said Ross MacEachern, health department manager of environ- mental health, noting the Region has all the right components for the spread of the virus, including the birds that are commonly in- fected, mosquitoes, the right kind of weather and neighbour- ing jurisdictions that are positive. The West Nile virus, which first appeared in New York State in the summer of 1999 and caused seven deaths in Queens, is spread by mosquitoes, which become infected after feeding on birds. The virus is then spread to humans through the bite of an in- fected mosquito. Dead birds, especially crows and blue jays, are believed to be an early indicator that the virus has entered an area. So, the Region launched its surveillance program May 15 in an effort to track whether the virus has made its way into Durham. As of June 12, the health de- partment had submitted 33 dead birds for testing at the Canadian Cooperative Wildlife Centre in Guelph. Mr. MacEachern noted there haven’t been any positive cases. “Overall (more than 460) birds have been collected in On- tario to June 5 with no positive results and no human cases,” he said in an interview Tuesday. He added there have been 15 posi- tive cases found in the United States this year, but no human cases south of the border as of yet. “We’re busy with it,” he said of the surveillance program, not- ing a toll-free phone line the Re- gion set up for the purpose of re- porting dead bird sightings is av- eraging about 20 calls a day. “It seems to have picked up,” he said, adding information about the virus is clearly getting out to the public, because calls to the health department are be- coming more specific regarding the types of birds the Region is looking for. He noted the dead birds are first tested at the facility in Guelph and if further analysis is required they are sent to a Health Canada lab in Winnipeg. Mr. MacEachern said fact sheets with information about the virus and methods to protect yourself from mosquito bites are available on the Region’s Web site. The health department is also working on an information pam- phlet about the virus. For more information about the West Nile virus, visit the Re- gion’s Web site at www.region.durham.on.ca. To report a sighting of a sick or dead bird, call the health de- partment’s environmental help line at 905-723-8521 or 1-800- 841-2729, ext. 2188. GM gets good grade in productivity report DURHAM ––General Motors’ Oshawa plants con- tinue to post improved per- formances in the annual Har- bour and Associates Report. The No. 1 car plant, which makes the Chevrolet Impala and Monte Carlo, leaped from eighth to third spot in the report, which rates North American auto- mobile assembly operations on productivity. The No. 2 plant, which manufactures the Buick Cen- tury, Regal and Chevrolet Lumina, moved one notch higher to sixth place. The truck plant retained its posi- tion of eighth overall for truck plants but took first in the full-size pickup segment, up from second. Overall, that’s an overall productivity improvement of almost 8.5 per cent for the year, the company reports. “GM employees have once again proven they are up to the task of making GM the best automaker in the world,” Maureen Kempston Darkes, GM of Canada pres- ident and general manager, said. “Their intense focus on quality and the global manu- facturing strategy have re- sulted in tremendous produc- tivity improvements for GM. As we continue to reduce our cost structure, this is one im- portant piece of the puzzle. My congratulations to every- one for your hard work and effort.” The Harbour Report mea- sures assembly, stamping and powertrain productivity performances –– plant by plant –– for automakers in North America. The report also contains a financial chapter that examines each automakers’ labour cost and profitability results. The re- port for 2000 rated the 38 car assembly and 43 truck plants in North America. Save with no fee daily business banking from bizSmart.

Carter, who is committed to ensuring a shelter is established in west Durham, reports progress is being made in making that goal a reality. The push to build a shelter in the Ajax-Pickering area was initiated last summer by the APWC and the Social Development Council (SDC) of Ajax- Pickering, which organized a summit, held last Aug. 8, that resulted in the creation of a task force. “We’re extremely pleased with the results that have come for- ward,” said SDC executive direc- tor Duncan Read, who noted “there has been a huge effort by the people who are now on the (APWC) board. It’s a wonderful thing to see happen.” He added, “When you think about the fact somebody had to die for the community to crystal- lize into action, that still remains sad and tragic.” But, he said, “If at least the shelter is able to do something for one woman and child, if it pro- vides a safe haven for one woman, it’s worth it.” To date more than $400,000 has been donated to the campaign for a shelter here. The goal is to raise $1.5 million. “The community has been phenomenal,” Const. Carter said in a recent interview, noting the board of the APWC is getting closer to securing a location for the shelter, although the site can- not be published for security rea- sons. But, despite the progress being made on that front, Const. Carter reported there is still much to be done to tackle domestic violence in commu- nities across Durham. Const. Carter said on average an arrest is still being made every day and a half in Durham Region with respect to domestic vio- lence. And, according to police statistics, the number of incidents in Durham is rising. There were 542 cases of domes- tic violence reported to Durham Re- gional Police in 1998, 549 cases in 1999 and 621 last year. However, police are making changes in how they investigate and document cases of domestic violence. “Now we have to do video state- ments,” said Const. Carter, who noted police are now required to complete more comprehensive reports. The de- partment has also established a domes- tic assault review committee to gather input from shelter workers and others who deal with victims of abuse on a daily basis. “We’ve completely rewritten our domestic violence directives,” said Durham Police Chief Kevin McAlpine in a recent interview. He said officers “will now be taking statements on a digital camera” in all domestic violence cases. He explained the video statements were introduced in an effort to “strengthen our inves- tigative process”. Officers are also “seizing into evi- dence every 911 tape,” he said, noting the force is committed to ensuring “people who abuse the ones they al- legedly love feel the (full weight) of the law”. Although he would not say that the changes are the result of the Hadley case, the chief noted “any case like this that happens is a real tragedy... our people who were involved (with the family) prior (to the murder-suicide) are just devastated.” “We need to be leaders in safety,” he said. “Shelters are a very necessary component of community safety... we’ll do what we can to support it.” Esther Enyolu, founder of the Women’s Rights Action Coalition (WRAC) of Durham, said the organi- zation would not only like to see a shelter set up in Ajax-Pickering, but also increased funding for Bethesda House and Denise House, the two ex- isting women’s shelters in Durham. She also reports more money is needed to help fund counselling services, not only for abused women, but for men as well. “All these programs need sufficient funds because we are providing direct services to women,” she said. “We see violence every day. A woman was murdered (two weeks ago) in Ajax,” Ms. Enyolu said. “Every year we wish (domestic violence) will de- crease, but it’s not.” She added the abuse of women and children is a reality that has become all too familiar to area residents within the past year. Since Gillian Hadley’s murder, two other women in the Ajax-Pickering area have been killed. One case is cur- rently before the courts and the woman’s common-law husband is charged with second-degree murder, while a Pickering woman and her young daughter were killed in a mur- der-suicide in March. The woman’s husband later died in hospital. “It’s really increasing all over the place,” Ms. Enyolu said, adding “be- cause of all the murders that happened recently in Durham Region, it’s raising a lot of eyebrows.” Ms. Enyolu also stressed the need for more public education and an in- creased awareness of domestic vio- lence. “I think the community needs to come together. If you notice your neighbour or your sister... report it... encourage women to leave the abusive situation,” she said. Const. Carter noted one of the chal- lenges in addressing domestic violence is the fact that “most women minimal- ize it. They often minimalize what their abuser did to them. We have to be aware of that. It’s up to us to educate them.” She also believes judges should be trained in handling domestic violence issues and would like to see the courts expedite domestic violence cases. Pickering-Ajax-Uxbridge MP Dan McTeague, who requested the coro- ner’s office conduct an inquiry into the Hadley case, is also committed to seeking ways to ensure the law better protects victims of domestic violence. “I think this has left a very deep and indelible wound in our community,” he said of the Hadley case, noting Ms. Hadley’s death was “a catalyst for us to get our act together. “I’m hoping the coroner’s inquest confirms the need for a more sober ap- proach about what’s happening in our community behind closed doors,” he said. “These tragedies are hitting our neighbours and our friends.” Mr. McTeague maintained the Criminal Code must be “used to ensure there is maximum protec- tion for victims”. He added, “There seems to be a consensus on dealing with the sentencing principles on cases of restraining orders.” He believes if there is a danger of reoffending, judges should not be provided the opportunity to grant bail. “One strike and you’re out,” he said, adding if someone breaks the conditions of a restraining order they should “immediately be in- carcerated”. However, Mr. McTeague said he’ll wait until the coroner’s in- quest is complete before pushing for specific changes to the Crimi- nal Code. “I want to look before I leap.” The Hadley case, meanwhile, also ignited a call for more afford- able housing in Durham Region, after the SDC reported Ms. Hadley was on the waiting list for subsidized housing. According to Mr. Read, at the time of Ms. Hadley’s murder, the typical wait for housing for women in a priority situation be- cause of abuse was about six to 12 months. That waiting time is now any- where from six to 18 months. “Other than the fact the Region now has a task force looking at housing... there’s noting else of a positive nature I’m aware of,” Mr. Read said recently, adding he believes that task force “has potential” in looking for solutions to the lack of affordable housing in Durham. “That’s the largest issue that re- mains to be tackled at the local level,” Mr. Read said, noting Criminal Code amendments are beyond local capabil- ities. However, he noted the SDC is pleased with the progress that has been made since last summer’s summit on domestic violence. “The good part is the community coming together.” A/P PAGE A4 NEWS ADVERTISER,WEDNESDAY EDITION, June 20, 2001 Community groups work to establish new shelter COMMUNITY from page A1 PICKERING ––Notes left outside the Hadley home following the murder included one from Ms. Hadley’s daughter and one from a neighbour who attempted to inter- vene.

Editorial &OPINIONS PICKERING NEWS ADVERTISER JUNE 20, 2001 Editorial e-mail responses to shouston@durhamregion.com Letters to the editor e-mail responses to shouston@durhamregion.com What options did OCAP have? To the editor: Re: ‘Desperate for attention? OCAP should apply for welfare,’ Steve Houston column, June 17. While I also do not condone vi- olent demonstrations, one must look at the whole issue not just a portion of it. First, when all other legitimate methods of complaint about injustices being done have been ignored — due in most cases to the fact that the provincial gov- ernment has refused to ease or help a situation that they themselves usually have brought about — then the patience of the people making the representation becomes ex- hausted and tempers flare. This is happening, unfortunate- ly, in places other than Canada. In Ontario we have a government that keeps turning a blind eye to the plight of our less affluent citizens. With funding being cut to wel- fare, hospitals, low-income homes and schools — to name just a few — in the name of its so-called common sense revolution, is it any wonder situations get out of hand and citizens start to revolt? Look what is happening with the private school tax credits. The Province is riding roughshod over all objections just so they can continue their political agenda regardless of the harm it may do. In the case of Jim Flaherty’s of- fice being trashed, I think the demonstration came about because our government has, I believe, changed the tenants’security act to be more favourable to landlords, who can now evict anyone without much notice and throw their be- longings onto the street. The On- tario Coalition Against Poverty (OCAP), rightly or wrongly after asking Premier Mike Harris not to change this act and because he did, decided to show a government minister what it is like to be evict- ed and to have one’s furniture trashed. I feel it could have been done in a less violent way, possibly in a symbolic or token gesture of re- moval. But when all avenues of peaceful complaint have been tried without success, what is the next option? Waiting for the next election is far too long to show one’s distaste for the policies of this present gov- ernment. Besides it will be too late to repair the damage they have done to our social system. As for members of OCAP applying for welfare, I think it is a wonderful idea, but do you really think the government would sit up and take notice? They haven’t taken notice of any one else. Ray Sinclair, Pickering Young boys offer hope for future To the editor: Critics would have everyone be- lieve kids these days have lost the art of being respectful. I have just enjoyed the most wonderful experience as an assis- tant volunteer coach at Pickering High School with the midget and junior boys’ rugby teams. The ju- nior team, which drew heavily upon the midget squad for man- power, lost in the Ontario champi- onships final by the narrowest of margins. Second in all of Ontario is not half-bad. What struck me from the outset of our collective odyssey was the respect down to a man that these players showed one another and their coaches. These kids were ab- solute gentlemen. In these times when govern- ments and unions and other spe- cial-interest groups have seemingly adopted confrontation rather then co-operation as a path to conflict resolution, it is a small wonder many of us have at times lost sight of the old adage ‘you reap what you sew’. A little respect goes a long way as I’ve seen with this great bunch of kids, or should I say, gentlemen. Mike Newman, Pickering Today marks the first anniversary of the death of Pickering resident Gillian Hadley; the mother of three gunned down by her estranged husband before he took his own life. It was June 20 of last year when Ralph Hadley surprised Gillian in their Hillcrest Road home in the quiet West Shore area of Pickering. A struggle took place in the house before it spilled onto the street, prompting neighbours to push aside their own safety in an attempt to intervene. Sadly, in a brief burst of violence, two people would be dead and three children would be left without their mother. The shocking murder of Ms. Hadley woke area residents, police and politicians out of their artificial slumber and forced them to take action on domestic violence. Much has been done in the last year to honour her memo- ry and that of other women in Durham Region killed or in- jured at the hands of their domestic partners. Community volunteers, social action groups and politi- cians have raised more than $400,000 for a women’s shelter to serve west Durham. Police officials have altered their pro- cedures in dealing with incidents of domestic violence. A coroner’s inquest this fall will examine the details surrounding the murder-suicide with a view to improving safety and pro- viding options for victims of domestic violence. Pickering- Ajax-Uxbridge MP Dan McTeague is even considering a push to change the Criminal Code to ensure “there is maximum protection for victims”. All of these elements of response to Ms. Hadley’s murder illustrate the widening impact her death has had here at home. It shook us out of our reverie, forcing us to examine our pri- orities as they relate to domestic violence. It spurred commu- nity groups into new action, with renewed energy. And though there is nothing tangible just yet in terms of the community’s response, the project continues to move for- ward, and the people behind it are as committed as ever. The solutions, be what they may, will be the legacy left be- hind by Gillian Hadley and those who fought for her after she died. Some answers may lie in establishing and opening the new women’s shelter, some may be found in the recommen- dations of the coroner’s inquest. The real solution though, however unattainable it may seem, is in stopping domestic violence before skin is bruised or a bone broken; it’s in stopping domestic violence all to- gether. It’s the least we can do for the late Gillian Hadley. It’s the least we can do for her surviving children. John Clarke, the 47-year-old Torontonian arrested and jailed in Whitby as a result of the investigation into the trash- ing of Jim Flaherty’s constituency office, has a long career of violent protest. You might think Mr. Clarke, the head of the Ontario Coali- tion Against Poverty, would be thrilled to one day see a dif- ferent provincial government in power. After all, the poverty activist led the violent assault last June at Queen’s Park that saw many officers hurt and scores of protesters arrested. Reached at his jail cell this past weekend, he told reporters he wants to continue the attack on Tory constituency offices in an attempt to drive the current government from office. Those who’ve paid attention, those who’ve watched close- ly over the years, know all about Mr. Clarke. For nearly two decades, almost since he arrived in Canada after coming here from England, Mr. Clarke has made it his life’s work to protest against the party, any party, in power. While David Peterson’s Liberal government ran things from 1987-90, Mr. Clarke heaped abuse on the Grit, dubbing him the “poverty premier”, and making a habit of crashing nomination meetings and barbecues. When the self-described ‘people first’ provincial govern- ment of Bob Rae and the NDP took over, it should have been a perfect fit with Mr. Clarke. But by 1991, Mr. Clarke was leading the assault on Mr. Rae, charging the NDP leader with “creating a mountain of human misery”, and stating “people were going to die from poverty”. Mr. Clarke helped chuck Mr. Rae out in June 1995, replacing him with the Mike Harris Tories. In short order, not surprisingly, Mr. Clarke was railing against the Tories, blam- ing them for all that was wrong with Ontario. It should be obvious Mr. Clarke’s entire career depends upon protest against any and all governments. He also took his troops to Ottawa for a major protest in 1999. No matter who wins the next provincial election, expected within two years, the premier can count on John Clarke to make outlandish statements and to organize protests. We shouldn’t be surprised, nor should we take him at all serious- ly. He has nothing positive to offer, nothing useful to say, no workable plan for progress. His is a tired act, one thoughtful Ontarians with a grasp on reality have learned to ignore. Building Gillian Hadley’s legacy A year later, community works to make changes for abused women Looking for trouble OCAP leader’s career based on anger, protest and publicity You said it The question was: Are you concerned that Durham’s crime statistics seem to be on the rise? Dave Ormiston said,“Yes, we have to live here. We have kids, we have to do something about it.” Don Gilmore said,“Crime is on the rise everywhere, but I am very con- cerned. There’s a complete dis- respect for teachers, elders, institutions.” Marg Grubb said,“Crime is everywhere; what can I tell you? It’s not like in ’57 when I moved to Ajax.” Ontario’s Liberals have often thrown away opportunities and this has helped keep them out of government for all but a pathetic five of the last 58 years. The most recent was when they led in polls while the New Demo- crat government self-destructed in 1995, but refused to announce policies before an election in case someone stole them. The Progressive Conservatives nipped in first and the Liberals’ eventual platform seemed a wa- tered-down imitation. But the Liberals probably missed their most golden opportu- nity 37 years ago when the party’s establishment, and not its rank and file, turned down an unusual, tal- ented outsider who wanted to lead them and it holds some lessons for the Liberals and other parties. Obituaries of Charles Temple- ton, who died recently at 85, have focused on him as an evangelist who left his ministry because he was no longer certain of his funda- mentalist Christian beliefs and felt he could not impress them on oth- ers. He rose quickly to top posts in newspapers, TV and radio and was obviously a man with diverse tal- ents. Mr. Templeton quit his journal- ist roles and announced he would run for the Liberal leadership in 1964, after John Wintermeyer, one of a long succession of faceless leaders, lost an election and his seat. Mr. Templeton was an appeal- ing speaker on a lot of subjects, which was why he got on TV so often and clearly had organization- al talents. But he had taken out his Liberal party membership only a month before, no one was quite sure of his political philosophies or steadiness and he had never paid what many considered his dues in the trenches and worked his way up. Besides, most of the Liberal es- tablishment and particularly its powerful federal cousins already had chosen Andrew Thompson, an MPP who had been an aide to Prime Minister Lester Pearson but whose only other claim to fame was having made one effective speech attacking the Tories’ noted police state bill. He later became notorious as the absentee senator who spent most of his time in Mexico instead of Parliament Hill. At the time a usually safe Tory seat in east Toronto was vacant after a resignation and Mr. Tem- pleton also declared bravely or recklessly he would run in the by- election there when it came time to show the Liberals he was confident he could get elected. This gave an opening to Tory John Robarts, a self-assured pre- mier who would not be frightened by Mr. Templeton but would also not welcome a rousing speaker to the opposition benches, where there were few. Mr. Robarts set the byelection vote for a mere week before the leadership convention, feeling Mr. Templeton would not win it and his attempted crusade to leadership would be stopped in its tracks. Mr. Templeton’s religious be- liefs became an issue in the by- election and leadership campaigns. Some supporters of leadership ri- vals, not the candidates them- selves, said the Liberals did not need a ‘messiah.’ At that time it was important a prospective leader show some ad- herence to religion and Mr. Tem- pleton insisted he still went to church and, when asked which one, searched around the room desperately before asking his wife, singer Sylvia Murphy, “What’s the name of that church, darling?” Mr. Templeton narrowly lost the byelection, oddly to a New De- mocrat and not the Tory, but the fervour he created survived and his enthusiastic supporters persuaded him to continue his run at the lead- ership convention only a week later and he still managed to get on the last ballot but was defeated by Mr. Thompson. Two years later, when Mr. Thompson stepped down, frustrat- ed at getting nowhere and after being fined for dangerous driving and so ill it showed physically, most Liberal MPPs who had op- posed Mr. Templeton before asked him privately to take over the lead- ership and he could have done so almost without opposition. Mr. Templeton pondered but re- fused, pointing out he ran up a huge debt in his previous try and would have no income if he led from outside the legislature be- cause salaries were paid only to sitting MPPs. Mr. Templeton pointed out also he still faced active opposition in the party, with one leading MPP declaring the best service he could do for it was stay away, and would have difficulty winning an election due a year later without a united party. The main lessons are parties should be open and innovative and listen more to their grassroots. Parties have to listen to their roots Faceless leaders have doomed Liberals to failure in Ontario Eric Dowd At Queen’s Park shouston@durhamregion.com 24 Hour Access 420-4660 cityofpickering.com420-2222 TONIGHT Pickering Concert Band 7-9 p.m. Esplanade Park behind City Hall.

BILLBOARD June 20, 2001 With June being Water Month and many recent articles in the News Ad- vertiser dealing with a proposed water pipeline through Pickering to accom- modate York Region, my next two columns will be on water conserva- tion. Did you know the average Canadi- an uses about 340 litres of water per day, more than twice as much as Euro- peans? Durham’s average is 270. By making small changes in water use, we can continue to reduce signif- icantly the amount of water used and be able to insist that York Region en- forces a rigorous water efficiency pro- gram for all of its residents and busi- nesses to match, or even better that of Durham. Durham’s water efficiency program and its 55-page booklet, ‘Household Guide to Water Efficiency’, now in its second printing, was able to bring down the increase in consumption to 2.7 per cent annually, the same as the annual population growth. The guide reminds residents about the impor- tance of water and gives practical ad- vice on how to conserve this precious resource. It has been mailed to home- owners who recorded high usage of water on their bills. In the summer of 2000, a team of students worked with 400 homeown- ers in Whitby on the efficiency pro- gram. Glen Pleasance, the Region’s director of water efficiency and the person who initiated the program, has noted the decrease in consumption but added water use increases by 50 per cent during the summer months. Durham’s headquarters is also the site of a water efficient garden that in- spired an award-winning garden at the Canadian National Exhibition. The following are water efficiency tips: • Adjust the water level in your toi- let tank to be at least one-inch below the top of the overflow pipe; • Refrain from running water con- tinuously while brushing your teeth; • Shower for five minutes or less; • Wash your car using a bucket of water collected from the rinse cycle of your washing machine; • Run washing machines only with a full load; • Use low-flow tap aerators; • Use a shut-off nozzle on garden hoses. Don’t let water run; • Use a water-saving shower head; • Use a washer-efficient dish wash- er; • Water plants with leftover tea and cooled water from boiling eggs; • Water lawn before 7 a.m.; and • Spread compost on your lawn and you will water less often. Having enough water to meet all our needs is something most people take for granted, but it is important to conserve this resource so there will be plenty for future generations.

This wading pool in the front office helped them keep their cool, along with students and faculty at the school. Have your say on governance reform PICKERING —The fu- ture of governance in Durham Region is the topic of a public information meeting being held here June 27. The Berkeley Consulting Group, which was retained by the City of Pickering and the City of Oshawa last fall to develop and evaluate a number of governance op- tions for Durham, is hosting the meeting at 7 p.m. to out- line the ‘Made-in-Durham Governance Study Draft Re- port’. The 55-page draft re- port suggests creating two or three single-tier cities in Durham could be viable op- tions for the future of the re- gion. But, the consultants maintain the current gover- nance structure is the best route for Durham in the short term. The draft report also indi- cates it’s too soon to settle on a future governance model given that it will likely take five years or more for the new role of the Greater Toronto Services Board (GTSB) to evolve. The consultants will be on hand to outline their find- ings, hear comments and re- spond to questions from the public. A summary of the draft report will be available at the meeting or can be picked up at the clerk’s department be- ginning June 18. The full re- port and a set of background working papers will also be available for viewing at the clerk’s department and at the Pickering Central Library as of that date. The public meeting takes place in council chambers at the Pickering Civic Com- plex, One The Esplanade.

The Dolphins scored a decisive 21-7 victory over the visiting Markham Raiders. The 2-0 Dolphins received an out- standing defensive effort to hold the Raiders to a lone touchdown. Mean- while, the offence scored on its first possession to set the tone for the game. Running back Ryan McMillan carried the ball into the end zone for the game’s first major. Fullback Ran- dell Ryan and quarterback Brandon Townsend scored the other touch- downs. Kicker Mike Amato complet- ed all three converts. Meanwhile, in tyke house league play, the Titans took a bite out of the Bulldogs by a 19-13 score and the Phantoms earned their first victory of the season by downing the Blue Dev- ils 39-12.

Pickering girl swims, bikes and runs her way past Canada’s best at junior event BY AL RIVETT Sports Editor PICKERING —Sheer relief. That’s what Pickering triathlete Ali- cia Kaye had on her mind while cross- ing the finish line more than two min- utes ahead of her nearest competitor to become female junior elite champion at the 2001 Canadian Junior Triathlon Championships at Bird’s Hill Province Park, just north of Winnipeg, last week- end. “It was something I’ve been gearing up for for a long time,” said Kaye, 17, who competed against 17 other top ju- nior triathletes from across Canada, in- cluding five from Ontario. “Last year, it was a goal for me. I’ve been in serious training for it since January, so I was ex- cited to win. It was a big relief.” Kaye completed the gruelling 1,500- metre swim, 40-kilometre bike and 10km run in two hours, 11 minutes and 26 seconds. Her winning time was two minutes and 33 seconds ahead of Kathy Tremblay of Quebec, a comfortable margin of victory in the sport. Moreover, the Grade 12 student at Dunbarton High School said she her race strategy for the event went exactly as planned. “The goal was to get the lead right from the start and never look back. I wanted to get ahead in the swim and go out hard on the bike,” noted Kaye. “In biking, everyone wants to draft behind one another. I knew I was one of the stronger bikers in the field, so I wanted to get a lead so no one could sit on my wheel and draft me.” Every detail fell into place as the event unfolded, although Kaye wished she could have had a bigger lead out of the swim, holding only a 20-second ad- vantage on her nearest competitor head- ing into the bike portion of the event. The race was won for Kaye during the biking, as she was three minutes and 40 seconds ahead of the pack when heading to the run. “I was a little bit surprised to get four minutes (ahead) on the bike, but I was- n’t complaining. I knew there were some fast runners (in the field), so I needed a big lead to stay in front in the run,” she explained. Eligible to compete as a junior until she’s 20, Kaye says it’s her goal to win two more national junior triathlon titles. “I’m hoping to win it over the next few years as well. It would be amazing to leave my mark on Canadian triathlon,” she said. With a national title under her belt, Kaye is eager to take on the world’s best at the World Junior Triathlon Champi- onships in Edmonton on Saturday, July 21. As the biggest race of the year, she’s ready to represent Canada and is deter- mined to finish in the top 10 in the world. “It’s basically the mini-Olympics for those under 20 (years of age),” she said. “I’m hoping to come top 10 in the world. Last year in Perth, Australia, I finished 21st and I didn’t have quite the race I wanted to. But, this year I feel fit and injury-free, so I’m hoping for a top- 10 finish.” In preparation for worlds, Kaye will keep up her rigorous training regimen, which includes twice-a-day training ses- sions for three to four hours each day, six days a week. “I’m having a blast right now; I’m really enjoying it, so I’m not ready to stop” said Kaye of her success.

A teacher friend of mine tells me that, "It isn't until mid October that most kids are back to speed. "This means that from July 1 through Thanksgiving many students are not focused or at their best. It may even be worse than that. Think about your child's learning experiences in June each year. Tests, exams, field trips and other events consume most of that month's schedule adding another month to the let-down period. Considering that the average school year includes only 195 days of instruction, we soon see why many schools struggle to meet the educational expectations of parents and society. We know that kids who are focused and ready in September, will learn, integrate and understand new material right away. How can you help your kids stay sharp over the summer holiday so there will be no let-down in the fall? Here are a few suggestions: • Reading: Make sure that your children read during the summer. Even if they have a busy social life and a part or full time job, make sure that they take time each day to read. • Studying : Set up brief study periods at least every other day. Times when your child can review the worst or hardest subjects, read ahead into next year's material and organize for next year. • Writing: Buy interesting journals and help them get started. Write each day - feelings, weather, what they did. Anything is fine. Encourage internet communication with a select group of friends using something like ICQ or Messenger. The more they write, the more they focus. • However, possibly the best way to help students stay sharp is through a good summer program such as those at Oxford Learning Centres to help keep those thinking, reading, writing, math and study skills sharp and ready for September. It's not so much the memorized material that students forget over the summer, it's learning how to learn that gets forgotten each summer. That's because it is seldom taught independent of school subjects. Students who develop good learning and thinking skills will be ready for success in September. Attending a study session over the summer at Oxford is the best way I know of overcoming the summer let- down. For more information call Oxford Learning Centre Pickering 905-420-3141.
