BY LESLEY BOVIE Staff Writer PICKERING —Kinsale residents say while they support the City’s new fill and topsoil regula- tions, they now expect some action to be taken on a stockpiling operation in their own backyard. “We are looking for results and we are looking for immediate results,” said Laura Orlandi. Pickering’s new bylaw requiring permits for the placing and dumping of fill and the removal of top- soil and altering land grades passed unanimously last week. But Mr. Orlandi pushed hard at the meeting for answers as to its effectiveness. “Will this prohibit any future companies like the one we have in Kinsale from doing this, and will it prevent and stop what we presently have in Kin- sale?” she asked. She and her neighbours have been trying to stop the dumping of fill on a property northeast of Bal- sam Road and Hwy. 7. They fear the fill is contaminated, while the owner of the property, James Sabiston, maintains it’s clean. Without a fill bylaw in place, Pickering’s only possible course of action up until now has been to sue the owner for not complying with zoning. The City has a court date at the end of March to that ef- fect. Now that the new bylaw has been passed, a letter was sent to Mr. Sabiston the following day, request- ing him to apply for a permit within two weeks (by Feb. 7) under the new regulations, City clerk Bruce Ta ylor said. The City has to process his application within 30 days or risk his appeal to the Ontario Municipal Board, he said. The new bylaw sets out “rigorous conditions” in terms of detailed plans and schedules, which must be met by the owner, said Mr. Taylor. Man charged in robbery attempts AJAX —A 39-year-old Ajax man faces theft and robbery charges following two separate incidents minutes apart Thursday morning. Durham Regional Police Sergeant Jim Grimley reports a man entered the Health-Rite IDA at 75 Bayly St. in Ajax shortly after 11 a.m. and demanded drugs. When he didn’t receive any, he fled. Minutes later, a man indicating he had a weapon tried to get drugs at the Shoppers Drug Mart, in the Harwood Shopping Centre. Cus- tomers and store staff tackled the man and held him until police ar- rived. No weapon was found, Sgt. Grimley said. Durham police were heading to the first call when they were redirected to the Shoppers Drug Mart, he added. Anthony John Eakley of Roo- sevelt Road has been charged with robbery, theft under $5,000, three counts of assault to resist arrest and one count of possession of proceeds of crime. DURHAM ––A new volunteer program will help Durham residents make good food choices through workshops and displays throughout the community. The community food ad- visers program was launched Wednesday, Jan. 29 by the Region of Durham in partnership with 18 com- munity groups. At the launch, the first 41 volunteer graduates pre- pared to begin promoting safe and nutritious food se- lection, preparation and storage to interested groups and organizations including seniors’ groups, community kitchens, shopping centres and service clubs. The volunteers have completed a provincially- sponsored training program consisting of 70 hours of in- struction and 20 hours of community practice in food safety and nutrition. For more information on the program, call the Durham Health Department at 905-723-8521.

The force is holding a first- ever one-week recruitment camp for women called OPP- Bound, with the goal of in- creasing awareness of employ- ment opportunities for women. Currently, OPP employs 985 female officers, nearly 20 per cent of its force, and 4,822 male officers, said Sergeant Karen Harrington of human resources. “We’re always trying to represent the community. There is not the representation we would like. The message we want to (send to women) is, ‘consider policing’,” she said. Sgt. Harrington said OPP hope to dispel any “miscon- ceptions” women have about policing that might deter them from a law enforcement ca- reer. “There are so many as- pects of policing” some aren’t aware of, she said. The camp will include “mentoring sessions with key female officers” and partici- pants will learn about the force’s history and also take part in firearm exercises, fit- ness drills, police vehicle op- erations and other practical ex- ercises. Up to 100 women will be selected for the five-day mini- camp, which will be held at the Provincial Police Academy in Orillia from July 6 to 10. The application deadline is June 1. Women interested can call OPP’s uniform recruit- ment unit at 1-866-393-3337 or go to the force’s Web site at www.opp.ca.

Told co-worker he had mice to kill BY STEPHEN SHAW Staff Writer DURHAM ––In the months before his wife’s death by cyanide, Ganesh Raghunauth confided to a co-worker about his marital problems asking: “What can I do to be single again?” and “What’s the strongest poison on the market?” To the first question, Angelica Paulino answered, “There’s something called divorce.” In a later conversation Mr. Raghu- nauth asked, “What’s the strongest poi- son on the market,” Ms. Paulino testi- fied in Superior Court. “I said, ‘What are you trying to kill?’ I thought he was joking. He said ‘mice.’ I said, ‘You have mice at home?’ and he said ‘Yeah,’” the wit- ness said. Ms. Paulino recalled the conversa- tions Friday at the first-degree murder trial of Mr. Raghunauth, 31. The Pickering man is accused of drugging his wife Hemoutie (Geeta) Raghunauth, 28, with the sedative Temazepam before poisoning her with cyanide in the couple’s Beaton Way home on Mother’s Day 2000. He has pleaded not guilty. Ms. Paulino, who worked in the fi- nance department at York Central Hos- pital where Mr. Raghunauth was an ac- counts receivable analyst, said they discussed their personal lives daily. Ms. Paulino told court Mr. Raghu- nauth revealed to her he was having marriage troubles, that he and his wife, “were not getting along.” Ms. Paulino, who sat at the desk next to Mr. Raghunauth, said she over- heard a phone conversation between him and his wife in which she accused him of having an affair. Mr. Raghunauth told his wife, “It’s not true, you’re wrong,” she said. During the phone call he swore at his wife, told her to, “Shut up bitch,” and “drop dead,” Ms. Paulino said. In a conversation with Ms. Paulino about his wife, Mr. Raghunauth told his col- league that “he couldn’t stand a less in- telligent person” than himself. A couple of months before his wife’s death, Ms. Paulino said Mr. Raghunauth started asking about drugs and poisoning. “He would ask me, ‘If a person takes a whole bottle of Tylenol or seda- tives, what would happen to that per- son,’” Ms. Paulino told court. “If a person was poisoned and brought to the emergency department, would they save that person? How would they do it?” Mr. Raghunauth asked Ms. Paulino. She said she told him, “I don’t know, stomach wash, I guess.” The cause of Mrs. Raghunauth’s death was unknown until toxicology tests detected high levels of the sleep- ing drug Temazepam and cyanide in her blood and stomach. When he returned to work after she died, as police investigated, Mr. Raghunauth asked Ms. Paulino, “What does a toxicologist do?” “I said, ‘looks for toxins and chem- icals in a person’s body.’” Can that be found in blood? Mr. Raghunauth inquired. “Of course,” she says she told him. Mr. Raghunauth told Ms. Paulino he planned to have his wife’s body cre- mated. When Ms. Paulino asked him if she committed suicide, she said he replied. “No, definitely not. She couldn’t have done something like that.” Mr. Raghunauth was fired from the hospital June 6, 2000 for suspicion of fraud, court has heard. He was charged with murder a cou- ple of months later.

Mr. Taylor said Mr. Sabiston’s ap- plication is well under way and tech- nical information can be forwarded to the City during the 30-day appli- cation process. Council deferred passing the bylaw in November at the request of Kinsale residents, who argued draft forms of the regulations had too many loopholes. Staff worked through their con- cerns and as a result, the bylaw will be much more literally interpreted, removing the discretionary powers of the City’s planning department, said Mr. Taylor in his report to coun- cil last week. “It is a better bylaw and yes, we support it,” said Ms. Orlandi at the meeting. “But with the trailer on it: We e xpect results.” Mayor Wayne Arthurs pointed out passing a bylaw doesn’t ensure com- pliance, “but it provides the neces- sary tools to act on someone who steps outside of it.” Pickering’s new fill and topsoil regulations compare favourably with other municipalities and is based on a model used by Toronto Region Conservation, Mr. Taylor told coun- cil.

Uncertainty could be final nail in coffin For the first time in 18 years, crowds won't be flocking to the Metro East Trade Centre this week- end. There will be no fighting to find a parking spot, no steady streams of shoppers to navigate. The fruit stands, antique booths, and jewelry dealers are all gone. Their wares were packed up and shipped off site earlier this week. Sounds of active bargaining have been replaced with the hammering of workers in the first stages of dis- mantling the trade centre. It was meant to be a showcase for Pickering, a site attracting inter- national and national attention but was built just as the economy was taking a downturn. The trade centre became home instead to the Picker- ing Markets, where it earned its own reputation in the Greater To ronto Area for its eclectic mix of culture and enterprise. Still, developers and City offi- cials alike agreed the property was underused for its size. The southern portion of the centre came down a few years ago to make room for the arrival of a Wal-Mart. Now, the en- tire thing must go for a Sam's Club and several other big-box stores. It's also crunch time for the mar- kets' vendors. The next few weeks will determine if they have a per- manent home to look forward to in August. Without a temporary location in Pickering, the markets runs the risk of losing its vendors to other venues in their need to make a living for the next six months. How many of them will return to set up a booth when the new location opens at Squires Beach Road and Bayly Street? More importantly, how many regular customers could the mar- kets lose in the meantime? Vendors involved in the ongoing negotiations with area property owners say they don't want to think of those possibilities just yet. They'd rather concentrate on these more immediate problems first. But it's bound to be an issue for them. The markets' lawyers have said the Invar Building Corporation will want a certain level of commit- ment from vendors before building the new location. Should ongoing negotiations fail to secure a temporary site "in the area", we may see the end of the Pickering Markets. And that would be a loss, indeed. Not only is it a training ground for many small businesses, but it's become an institution in Durham as 'the place to go' for those searching for something different on a dime.

What bothers me most is our government's apparent apathy in taking concrete steps to help combat the problem. The recent police press conference re- vealed Canada's efforts to curb child porn are so poor we "risk" being seen as a haven for pedophiles. Our federal government, so poor in its own ethics and accountability, so big on its own rhetoric, is really dropping the ball on this issue. Consider this for a moment: This giant Internet child-porn industry almost exclu- sively relies on multinational credit card companies to make money. Yes, that same card that buys your kids' clothes, books and diapers is the same card pedophiles use to buy disgusting, vile, images of our children being exploited in ways every loving parent can't even bear to imagine. And yes, these credit card companies happily take their two to four per cent of income generated (which amounts to millions of dollars per year). This is the biggest example of a lack of corporate ethics, greed and accountability that I have ever seen. Why can't our government pass a simple law, forbidding credit card companies from doing business with criminal child pornog- raphers? If Prime Minister Jean Chretien feels he needs a legacy, how about a legacy protect- ing our children? I know that it may be im- possible to stop child pornography, but the least we can do is make it difficult for these "low-lifes" to profit from it.

Editorial &OPINIONS NEWS ADVERTISER FEBRUARY 2, 2003 Editorial e-mail responses to shouston@durhamregion.com Letters to the editor e-mail responses to shouston@durhamregion.com Just how far should police be allowed to go to determine if il- legal activity is going on in your home? That was the issue when the Ontario Court of Appeal ruled unanimously that the indiscriminate use of heat-seeking technol- ogy by police helicopters was an invasion of privacy. The three- judge panel decided the technology can still be used but only after police first obtain a search warrant. Section 8 of Schedule B, Part 1 of the Charter of Rights and Freedoms states: "Everyone has the right to be secure against un- reasonable search and seizure." Judge Rosalie Abella stated the "nature of the intrusiveness is subtle but almost Orwellian in its theoretical capacity." The heat-seeking equipment has been a weapon in the war on pot-grow homes across the GTA. Typically, a home used to grow marijuana produces an inordinate amount of heat in the produc- tion of the plants. High sources of heat in homes, therefore, could be a clue in the fight to shut down the homes. While police would not comment on the number of busts that have been made using the technology, federal drug prosecutor Alex Sosna, who current- ly has about 75 marijuana grow lab cases on his desk, says "a large number" involve the use of infrared equipment. It's unclear how those cases will now proceed given the court's opinion on the use of the equipment. In the past year 125 mari- juana grow homes in Durham have been shut down. Durham Deputy Police Chief Rod Piukkala says it hasn't been common practice for the police helicopter to fly over homes in the region to check for suspicious heat levels. He does admit, "I can't say never, but it would be impractical." The helicopter can and will be used in specific investigations, checking on suspect homes that were already targeted. In other words, police will have to present sufficient evidence to a judge or justice of the peace that a search warrant is needed before doing the air surveillance on a home, not the other way around. Naturally, the ruling is frustrating for police, who feel too many intrusions and steps are already needed to perform their jobs. "Every time our hands are tied it's frustrating. We need a search warrant for everything we do... We're always concerned when a tool in our toolbox has been removed," said Deputy Chief Piukkala. On the other hand, everything police officers do must meet the basic test of law. Their actions must achieve a balance between the protection of individual civil rights versus the vital role soci- ety asks them to fill in fighting criminal activity. It's a test that's central to democracy and one the police have failed in this par- ticular case.

Bracelet helps seniors cope while away from home DURHAM –– Travel smart and safe this winter, with a Med- icAlert bracelet. Although overall travel dropped in 2001, Statistics Cana- da reports ‘golden globetrotters’ took close to eight million trips outside Canada, and spent an av- erage of 11 nights away from home. Health experts say the biggest risk to health while travelling is the flare-up of existing medical conditions. Travellers, especially those 55 and up, should take pre- cautions to protect themselves. Statistics Canada indicates one in three have a medical condition that should be managed. The Canadian Department of Foreign Affairs and International Trade advises those with a pre-existing medical condition that could pre- sent a problem while travelling would be wise to wear a Med- icAlert bracelet. The Canadian MedicAlert Foundation is a national mem- ber-based charity that receives no government funding. It cur- rently protects over one million Canadians, including 250,000 older Canadians through emer- gency medical information ser- vices, including health protec- tion through customized medical ID linked to their medical records through a 24-hour hot- line. In an emergency, or other medical situation, health profes- sionals have instant access to a MedicAlert member’s vital med- ical facts at anytime, from any- where in the world, in over 100 languages through the Med- icAlert Emergency Hotline. Family notification at the time of the emergency is also made available for members. Asthma, diabetes, and hyperten- sion are medical conditions that may have a higher tendency to flare-up during travel. Over 140,000 older Canadians diag- nosed with asthma are members of MedicAlert. Approximately 72,000 are members who have been diagnosed with diabetes and over 44,000 have hyperten- sion. “For those who travel, extra pre-planning is necessary to help prevent problems while away,” says Shelagh Tippet-Fagyas, president of the Canadian Med- icAlert Foundation. “Our goal is to build awareness among Cana- dians 55-plus about ways to fur- ther ensure their safety and secu- rity.” Before leaving home, con- sider some of the following safe- ty tips: • Schedule a doctor’s appoint- ment to get any necessary vacci- nations. Individuals with heart conditions should obtain a copy of their most recent Electrocar- diogram (EGC). • Get advice on health issues in the areas to be visited and be aware of the local medical facili- ties. • Carry enough medication to cover one week longer than the expected stay, as well as an extra prescription that lists both gener- ic and trade names on medica- tions to so you can get refills if the medication is lost or stolen. • Consider wearing identifica- tion that details medical condi- tions to inform others.

HURRY! $10.00 OFF VICOR OR SENSUOUS How many of us are aware of the need to have our bodies and muscles in shape for the winter season. Healthy feet and ankles must be fit and strong to act as accelerators, steering, brakes and shock absorbers. Any weakness to these extremities can lead to injuries and even the end of a season of participation. A fitness program should be in place to supplement winter activity. For skiing, strong quads and abdominal muscles are most important. Knee bands, sit-ups, crunches and skipping rope all help to strengthen your quadriceps and abdominal muscles. Racquet sports are equally beneficial in maintaining cardiovascular benefits and reaction time. Greater flexibility allows for a wider range of motion and minimizes the chance of strains. Stretch antagonistic muscle groups to maintain a point of tightness, hold for 40-60 seconds and release. Repeat each stretch three times. Strength of muscles is also important but overdoing it can lead to muscles tears. Warm-ups are most important before beginning the activity especially for cold weather sports. We idle our cars on cold winter days, but are we as kind to our bodies? Warm-up exercises help stretch muscles and allow for greater mobility. This minimizes the chance of injuries by allowing the muscles to be more responsive and act as better shock absorbers. Stream the part of the body used in the activity, for example, your legs in skiing or skating when warming up but also do upper body circular arm swings. A cool down period after the activity is also important. A sauna or whirlpool followed by a cool shower will help. Stop the activity when you’re tired. Remember, more injuries occur on that last run of the day when your fatigue hampers your reactive time and you are not paying attention. Winter sports require proper clothing. Upper body layering will keep you warmer and always wear a hat to prevent heat loss. Proper foot wear includes insulated waterproof boots or shoes. Socks must remain dry to prevent the occurrence of frostbite. Those suffering from pre-existing circulatory problems such as diabetes or Raynaud’s Disease should consult their medical doctor. Ski boots and skates should fit properly for a safe and uneventful activity. If the boots or skates are too loose, toes quickly get irritated in the toe box. If they are too tight, pressure leads to blisters and abrasions causing painful feet which may compromise control and lead to injuries or accidents. Tight boots or skates can compromise control and lead to injuries or accidents. Tight boots or skates can compromise circulation. Do not put children in hand-me-downs. Skates that are too large or wide may lack proper ankle support leading to strains, sprains or even fractures. Runners in the winter may unconsciously change their foot strike pattern which can lead to overuse injuries. To increase traction on slippery surfaces, runners may land with the entire foot instead of the natural heel-to-toe strike. lateral slippage may lead to groin pulls. Some runners are trying spikes that fit over their shoes when jogging in icy areas. Some problems to watch out for are: 1) FROSTBITE: Skin freezes when exposed to cold temperatures and high winds. With longer exposure blood vessels constrict and skin colour changes from blue to white. A feeling of numbness or burning may indicate frostbite. Wet feet are more prone to frostbite as are people with previous history of frostbite. Prevention involves changing wet clothing and avoiding the use of alcoholic beverages. Shield yourself from high winds and keep moving. Treatment involves putting fingers in armpit touching warm skin. Remove clothing from the affected area and avoid rubbing the skin.

Are there certain foods that you eat every day? Do foods control you? Do you eat well for a couple of days, then binge on something suddenly? Are symptoms overwhelming you? If you are experiencing any of the above, then you are in need of a food sensitivity test and a health assessment. The combination of a food sensitivity test and health assessment is guaranteed to supply you with information to improve your health. What you consume on a daily basis is crucial to your health and well-being, and no one is exempt from this fact. It is said that the first sign of dis-ease is a lack of energy. So regardless of your symptoms whether it be excess weight, irritable bowel, constipation, PMS, eczema, acid reflux, sinusitis, high cholesterol, ADHD or high blood pressure, the prevention is up to you and a Nutritional Health Consultant to guide you back to health. Cigarettes, alcohol, drugs and FOOD create imbalances. Even healthy nutritious food can be the culprit, if a person has a sensitivity to it, or if the liver is too congested. Today, in many cases, stress is at an all-time high, the demands on the body are great, and the liver is often overburdened. People that react to everything such as the environmental substances, raw vegetables and fruits, animals etc. need to support and cleanse their liver to restore balance. Become knowledgeable about your biggest asset, your body, and ask a professional to get you started on the path to life’s highest reward, your vibrant health. Start now by listening to your body, if you have symptoms, don’t wait for the symptoms to multiply. If you have numerous symptoms, and feel drained and overwhelmed, there is still help for you! Karen Tazar offers sensitivity testing, and a “5 step individualized program”, including Nutrition counseling. Tissue Mineral Analysis, detoxification and holistic weight management principles. Call Karen at (905) 837-6627 in Pickering. Immerse the affected area in warm (40c) water (20 - 30 minutes) until the affected area turns red. If blisters develop, add an antiseptic such as Betadine to the skin. If no water is available, keep affected areas warm with blankets or in contact with other person’s skin. See your medical doctor as soon as possible. 2) BLISTERS: Friction from ill-fitting foot gear can cause blisters. Do not pop a blister as it will then more easily infect. If it breaks on it’s own, use an antiseptic such as Betadine and cover with a sterile bandage. 3) HYPOTHERMIA: This affects the entire body and involves loss of body heat. Initially shivering will generate more body heat. If shivering stops, a person is not necessarily warmed, and this is sometimes a warning sign. Continued exposure to cold temperatures can lead to hypothermia. This is a medical emergency and professional care should be sought. 4) STRAINS AND SPRAINS: These are common especially with skiing and skating. They should be created with rest, ice compressions and elevate (RICE). Winter can be a fun season if proper care is taken. Attention to muscle flexibility, proper clothing and warm-up exercises will ensure a season of injury free fun.

Pickering’s finance and op- erations committee is recom- mending to council all on-street parking be prohibited during times of snow clearing opera- tions. In an effort to improve snow clearing, City staff originally recommended prohibiting all on-street parking between the hours of 3 and 6 a.m. from Dec. 1 to April 1. But finance and operations committee members said in No- vember they felt the bylaw was too restrictive. While a number of area mu- nicipalities prohibit on-street parking during the winter, there are currently no specific park- ing restrictions on Pickering’s books other than those that dic- tate vehicles can’t be parked for more than three hours at a time on city streets. Nor can they in- terfere with the movement of traffic or clearing of snow. It’s the interference stipula- tion that has sparked problems, said Richard Holborn, division head of municipal property and engineering. A bylaw enforcement officer must be present to witness the interference, slowing down snow clearing considerably, he said. But staff now feel the revi- sion of the wording and defini- tion of snow clearing could help address both their concerns and that of committee members. Under the proposed amend- ed bylaw, roads crews can noti- fy bylaw enforcement officers when snow plowing, salting and sand- ing begins. Bylaw officers can then ticket all on-street vehicles or tow, if necessary, to provide unimpeded ac- cess for plowing operations, Mr. Hol- born said in his report. Council is expected to deal with the issue Feb. 3. AJAX —A comeback win sealed the deal for the Ajax Knights Continental Fitness atom AA hockey team, as they defeated the Oshawa Minor Generals three games to one in a recent playoff se- ries.In Game 4,Ajax was trailing 3-0 be- fore snatching a remarkable come-from- behind victory, capped by James Malloy’s overtime marker, his sec- ond goal of the game, for a 4-3 win. Matthew Roberts and affili- ate player Michael Lanteigne also scored, while Brandon Watts, Brendan Lane and Lanteigne notched assists. Ajax won a close Game 3 by a 4-2 score. Adam Zulak and Lanteigne each potted two goals, with helpers by George Jimas, Watts, Lane, Cody Arsenault and Michael Mas- trangelo. The Knights had a strong start in the second game and followed through for a 5-2 victory. Jimas had two goals with singles going to Watts, Lane and Mastrangelo. Alex Hill- house,Zulak,Jimas,Quinn Vernoy,Lane and Connor Tamblyn assisted. Ajax lost its only game of the series in the first contest, 3-2 in overtime. Jimas and Zulak scored for the Knights, with assists from Lane and Mastrangelo. Ben Reid and Jonathon Germain pro- vided great goaltending throughout the series, and defencemen Spencer For- rester and David Murphy were solid. www.durhamregion.com NEWS ADVERTISER, SUNDAY EDITION, February 2, 2003 PAGE 13 A/P 2003 Membership Rates 2003 Golf Course Rates Please contact us for more information: DIVE INTO OUR EXCITING PROGRAMS The Scarborough Diving Club is looking for new members for the New Session starting February 2003 SDC offers both learn-to-dive and competitive programs for divers of all ages.

Youth curlers rock the house Annandale rink second as local club hosts annual youth, little rock bonspiel BY JIM EASSON Special to the News Advertiser AJAX —A pair of visiting sis- ters were tops as the Annandale Curling Club held its annual Youth/Little Rock Bonspiel recently. Sixteen teams competed in the little rock division Jan. 18, while 14 faced off in the youth section. They played for picks at the prize table and other prizes through on- and off- ice competitions. The little rock players played two games, had lunch and participated in games arranged by Ken and Kristine Moore. The youth competitors played three games, had lunch and kept themselves busy with card games. The Bobbie sisters, Kirsten and Tess, from Scarborough Golf won their respective draws. Patrick Moy- lan of Annandale claimed second in the youth division, while the Justin Deacon team from Avonlea was sec- ond in little rock. The Corey Morrow team, at fifth overall, had the best showing from Annandale in little rock play. Six youth and seven little rock teams from the Annandale club par- ticipated. ❑ ❑ ❑ Seven Annandale teams were at the Uxbridge Curl- ing Club last Saturday for the B and K Angus men’s points ‘spiel. One of those teams, skipped by Carl Vickers and ably assisted by Brian Waugh, Chuck Gaudette, and Gary Mer- cer, emerged as overall winners. Dale Patterson, Bill Buffey, Jeff Sakula,Arnold Retz, Mike McGowan, and Ken Bolsby skipped the other Annandale teams. ❑ ❑ ❑ The annual skins curl- ing playdown at Annandale has advanced to the point that only two teams remain undefeated in the A-side. Jon Payne and Bob Rudkin have to meet by March 5 to decide who advances to the closing final. A handful of teams on the B side have to play down to meet the A- side runner-up.

If the answer is yes but cash is a lit- tle tight or interest costs are too high then Plumbing Mart has the perfect solution for you. Right now you can have one of sev- eral different bathroom packages starting at $6,588 with no interest on monthly pay- ments up to 36 months. (48 months avail- able on some packages) “There’s no reason to delay having a beautiful bathroom in your home,” says Sam Beninato of Plumbing Mart. ”You can’t afford not when you can divide your purchase into equal monthly payments with no interest charges. You can pay as low as $183 a month for 36 months and at the same time adding tremendous value to your home” Every package includes demolition, preparation and installation of a tub, toi- let, floor tiles, vanity, basin, faucets and much more. You can choose from the full bath- room retrofit to the luxury whirlpool bath- room with lots of upgraded features. “Agreat bathroom can be a real deal- maker when it comes time to sell your house,” says Sam. “We are offering this program so you don’t have to pay high interest costs when you borrow money for a renovation. Also, if you have the money why not keep it in the bank and earn inter- est.” Satisfying their customers is what has made Plumbing Mart leaders when it comes to bathroom renovations. Over the last 40 years they have established an excellent reputation and have since expanded their specialty to include kitchens and basement conversions. “We have the best combination when it comes to products and people,” says Sam. “That’s to ensure each and everyone of our customers is completely satisfied with their project which is also backed by Plumbing Mart’s 5-year instal- lation warranty.” Located at 1534 Midland Ave., the Plumbing Mart showroom is only 15 min- utes from anywhere in Ajax and Pickering. It's a short drive west on Hwy 401, south on McCowan Rd. to Lawrence, go west two major intersections to Midland and then just one block north to Plumbing Mart on the west side.
