AJAX-PICKERING -- About 65 Ajax and
Pickering residents turned out for a celebra-
tion of new citizens hosted by local MP Mark
Holland last week.
The group gathered at Ajax’s town hall
and were joined by the mayors of Ajax
and Pickering, local councillors and Ajax-
Pickering MPP Joe Dickson.
Mr. Holland said his goal was to welcome
some of Canada’s most recent citizens and to
make sure they knew who to go to when they
needed to get problems fixed.
“We have every corner of the planet repre-
sented in Ajax and Pickering and it creates a
community that’s incredibly vibrant,” he said,
adding that new citizens are often the proud-

PICKERING -- City Hall was packed Mon-
day night when Mayor Dave Ryan and
Pickering council handed out awards to
citizens, businesses and organizations
that have dedicated significant service to
the community.
Among the winners of the 2008 Civic
Awards was Rae Coulter, the director of the
St. Paul’s On-the-Hill Community Food
Bank, taking home a lifetime achieve-
ment award. “I was thrilled (to hear I was
receiving the award),” she said.
Although she works hard, volunteering
is something she’s used to, having served
the food bank for the past 18 years. “What
would I do with myself?” she said.
Heroes honoured were Matthew Clif-
ford, Chad Hervieux and James Shaw.
Mr. Shaw had witnessed a robbery of the
manager of a Mac’s convenience store.
He attempted to stop the suspected rob-
ber, who fled on foot, but was threatened
with a knife. Mr. Clifford and Mr. Hervieux
were driving by, and picked up both Mr.
Shaw and the victim in search of the sus-
pect, who they saw enter a home. They
called police, who caught the suspect and
recovered the stolen bank deposit.
“I’d want someone to do that for me,”
Mr. Clifford said. Mr. Hervieux agreed and
noted others saw the incident but didn’t
act on it.
Peter Carruthers has served Claremont
since 1980 as a volunteer firefighter and
received a lifetime achievement award.
His brother, Paul Carruthers, was also
recognized for volunteering in the same
capacity since 1969.
Jaclyn Stephenson, 19, received an
access award for disability issues for
spending six years volunteering with the
Pickering Special Children’s Swim Pro-
gram. newsdurhamregion.comNews Advertiser • May 28, 20092

Montreal man
charged with
2006 murder
BY JEFF MITCHELL
jmitchell@durhamregion.com
WHITBY -- Murdered trucker Donald
Woods died of a point-blank shotgun blast
to the back of the head, an expert witness
testified Tuesday.
Forensic pathologist Jacqueline Parai
said Mr. Woods, whose body was found
in the sleeper compartment of his rig in
Pickering in June 2006, died immediate-
ly from the execution-style shooting.
“It was my opinion it was a contact
wound,” Dr. Parai said Tuesday in Supe-
rior Court in Whitby.
“It means the end of the barrel of the
shotgun ... was in contact with the scalp
to cause this wound.
“(Death) would have been immedi-
ate,” she said.
Dr. Parai was testifying at the trial of
Paul Cyr, who has pleaded not guilty to
the first-degree murder of Mr. Woods,
35.
The Brockville-area trucker was found
dead in the cab of his truck behind
the Wal-Mart store on Brock Road in
Pickering June 23, 2006. His cargo, a load
of air-chilled chicken valued at $40,000,
was missing.
Mr. Cyr, 51, of Montreal, was arrested
several months after Mr. Woods’s body
was discovered. He is also charged with
theft over $5,000.
Testifying Tuesday Dr. Parai said that
in addition to the catastrophic gunshot
wound to the head, an autopsy revealed
bruising on the slain man’s wrists. Dur-
ham investigators found a number of
plastic ties in and around the truck,
jurors have heard.
Court has heard Mr. Woods was bound
for Bradford with the load of chicken.
He last had contact with his wife June
21, 2006, and his body was discovered
two days later.
Mr. Woods’s cellphone, found in the
cab of the truck, recorded 49 missed
calls, jurors heard.
The trial continues.

Dickson refers Parish
to questions in the
legislature
BY REKA SZEKELY
rszekely@durhamregion.com
AJAX -- Ajax Mayor Steve Parish recent-
ly sought an official statement from MPP
Joe Dickson on his views of the Greenbelt;
instead, he got two questions.
In April, Mayor Parish fired off a letter to Mr.
Dickson after a portion of the Ajax-Pickering
MPP’s March newsletter caught his eye.
The contentious issue was part of a piece
on a couple celebrating their 50th anniver-
sary. With regard
to their Rossland
Road and Lakeridge
Road-area farm, the
newsletter says:
“After Ajax Council
changed their land
designation without
family approval or
any compensation,
they have had to
purchase addition-
al farm acreage in
Port Perry, Whitby
and other areas in
order to get the 600-800 acres needed for a
viable farm operation.”
The newsletter went on to say the farm
was surrounded by new development and
the family may be forced out of the area by
new-home building.
Mayor Parish said the farm is part of the
non-urban lands included in the Greenbelt
legislation in 2004. The Province has frozen
development on Greenbelt lands.
“We cannot have our MPP oppose the
Greenbelt and go further to wrongly inti-
mate that the Greenbelt was imposed by
Ajax Council,” Mayor Parish wrote.
He said the McGuinty government created
the Greenbelt and Mr. Dickson is a member
of that government.
“Frankly, I was annoyed that an MPP who
represents Ajax and should be a supporter
of the Greenbelt attacks the Greenbelt and
attacks Ajax council at
the same time,” said
Mayor Parish in an
interview.
He called on Mr.
Dickson to clarify and
state his position on
the Greenbelt both
generally and in Ajax
specifically.
In response, Mr.
Dickson pointed to
questions he posed in
the legislature in early
May as the answer to
the mayor’s questions. At Queen’s Park, he
said he felt one of the government’s great
environmental achievements was the cre-
ation of the Greenbelt and said members of
his riding supported it. He then asked the
Minister of Municipal Affairs and Housing
about recent activities in the Greenbelt and
its value to the Province.
Mr. Dickson also requested a clarification
on the importance of Ontario’s pesticide
ban.
When asked for his official position on the
Greenbelt, Mr. Dickson referred to his two
questions and said the mayor should do the
same.
“I think it’s pretty obvious from the ques-
tions in the Legislature, and if he doesn’t
understand that, I’d be pleased to speak with
him any time in person,” said Mr. Dickson. newsdurhamregion.comNews Advertiser • May 28, 20094

Are residents’ efforts really making a
difference when they separate their food
waste and blue box materials?
Yes. Durham Region residents have been
continually increasing both the amount
of recyclable and compostable materials
diverted from landfi ll since the Blue Box
program began in 1984. In 2008, residents
diverted 54,000 tonnes of recyclable
material, and almost 26,000 tonnes of food
waste from being transported to landfi ll.
Recyclables are remanufactured into either
the same product or another plastic, metal
or paper product. Organic food waste is
processed right here in Durham Region
into high quality compost for residential use.
Keep up the great work! Your participation
makes waste diversion programs work for
both you and the environment.
What does the term “EFW” mean?
EFW, or energy from waste, is a process
that takes residual garbage and burns it
to produce energy. Residual waste is what
is leftover after the recyclable products,
compostable material and hazardous waste
items are removed. Garbage has an energy
recovery value that can be captured by
burning it in a controlled environment. It
then heats up water-fi lled steel
tubes to produce steam, which
in turn drives a turbine to create
electricity. Energy produced from
the waste can be sold into the
Ontario hydro power grid to offset
increased electricity demands. An
EFW facility for Durham Region
can solve residual waste landfi ll
issues, increase awareness of
existing waste diversion programs,
and provide enough energy to power over
8,000 homes annually. Visit the Durham/
York Residual Waste Study website at
www.durhamyorkwaste.ca/faq.php for more
information on the EFW project.
I just moved into a new house and have
a lot of extra cardboard boxes. What do I
do with them?
Welcome to Durham Region! Cardboard
boxes need to be broken down, bundled
using tape or twine, and left beside your
blue box on your regularly scheduled
collection day. Fold or cut down the
cardboard to about the size of your blue
box, and no heavier than 20 kilograms (44
pounds) so they are manageable for you
and the driver. Don’t use wire or plastic
ties as problems may occur at the Region’s
Material Recovery Facility if this material
becomes unwound and wraps around the
machinery in the processing plant. Check
our website for more information at www.
durhamregionwaste.ca.

Editorial
Opinions
What are you supposed to do when you
don’t like the people you love?
This sounds oxymoronic, but I’m sure
you’ve experienced it. I think we all have.
Families are particularly rife with this condi-
tion. And it’s challenging as hell.
It’s easy to dislike a stranger or even an
acquaintance. In fact, it’s easy to forgive
someone we hardly know. Because we don’t
have a deep emotional stake in that person
or that relationship. And they’re ephemer-
al. Oftentimes, we won’t ever see the person
again.
But when your kid or your spouse or your
mother, father, sister or brother gets under
your skin, that can get your shorts in a knot
an Eagle Scout couldn’t undo ... because you
see them all the time. You have history.
And if you live with them, it’s like trying to
put out a fire with gasoline. Existing under
the same roof as someone you’re on the outs
with is like being in a boxing ring with them.
It’s suddenly a very small space and it’s only a
matter of time before you come to blows.
I’m fairly certain this was the main reason
humans invented the locked door. So we
wouldn’t kill each other. How the heck, for all
those years, did native people deal with fam-
ily tiffs? I mean, inside that teepee or igloo or
long house, there was nowhere to hide.
“I see you over there, Running Deer, don’t
you give me that look.”
“Tell that blubber-head Akpik I’m not
speaking to him. I’ll be under my robe if any-
one wants me.”
I guess that’s what ice floes and forests and
acres of barren prairie were for. Getting away
from the people we love/hate.
Still, it’s a painful situation. Uncomfortable
and awkward and stressful.
Hang onto it long enough and it’ll make
you very, very sick.
Honestly, I’ve had multiple surgeries, bro-
ken bones, burns ... I’ve even been stabbed,
but I’ve never experienced anything that
hurts as much or as deeply as disliking some-
one you love.
And I think it’s because when we find our-
selves in that position, when he or she just
doesn’t get it or we can’t believe that kid
could actually do that or Mom or Dad just
said that “thing” they know really, really
bugs us, we feel that completely-bent-out-of-
shape anger rising until our solar plexus feels
like we swallowed a rusty bear trap.
It’s because we are about as far from our
real selves as we will ever get. We are sudden-
ly at the frozen, outer reaches of our emotion-
al galaxies, far and away from the love that is
our sun and our source. And it feels rotten.
Humans are essentially love machines. It’s
what we were designed to do best. And we
have these remarkable things called emo-
tions that let us know how well the machine
is working.
When we’re happy, enthused, passionate,
loving -- the machine is running like a top.
We have energy and we radiate health and
wellness.
But when anger, fear, guilt, jealousy and all
those other delights are present, the machine
is gummed up. And you know it immedi-
ately. You feel lousy. We sometimes say, we
don’t feel like ourselves.
Which couldn’t be more true, because, we
have drifted from our real loving selves. The
selves who want to love everyone and every-
thing.
And so, yes, it is hard when you suddenly
find yourself not liking someone you love.
But what gets me through it is remembering,
all the while, that although I may not tempo-
rarily like them, I will always love them. It’s
just who I am.

New Canadians remind us
how special country is
For long-time Canadian citizen Harry
Young, the celebration for new Canadi-
ans organized by Ajax-Pickering MP Mark
Holland was, well, better late than never.
Mr. Young, who emigrated from Scot-
land in 1979 and was in Ajax last week to
enjoy mingling with 65 other “new” Cana-
dians, got into the spirit of his party three
decades after his own immigration expe-
rience.
He lamented that, “they didn’t have a
nice party for me,” but that didn’t stop him
from enjoying this one. Good for him.
For the other new Canadians it was a
chance to literally meet neighbours who
had come from all corners of the globe
to be part of the Canadian experience.
With Canada Day just over a month away,
these new Canadians could tell stories of
coming from Nigeria, Jamaica and China
among other distant shores.
But home is now Ajax and Pickering.
As it is for so many of the nearly 200,000
citizens who make the town and city their
residence. For we are all immigrants or
the sons and daughters or grandsons and
granddaughters or great-grandsons and
great-granddaughters of immigrants to
this area.
That is truly our common bond. So the
65 new Canadians who gathered at the
Ajax Town Hall are merely beginning their
own journey and are starting their own
story. They will build their new Canadian
life in this land of freedom.
It won’t always be easy and some of
those at the gathering acknowledged that.
Jeannette Headley, originally from Jamai-
ca, said it was difficult to find a decent job
upon arriving in Canada. She also wished
it was easier to bring education creden-
tials overseas.
And Shuae Wei, from China, said he felt
the need to change his name to Andy on
his job application form. He said he had
felt discrimination but felt he had been
able to adjust.
The immigrant experience can’t be an
easy one. Then again, leaving your home-
land, uprooting your family and moving
to a distant place and starting over cannot
be an easy decision.
As Pickering Mayor Dave Ryan said to
the gathering, in reference to his own par-
ents immigrating to Canada in the 1920s:
“I have some sense of the sacrifice you
made bringing your family here to be part
of our community.”
Ajax and Pickering are the beneficia-
ries of the experience of so many different
parts of the world. And we are the better
for it.

OSHAWA -- With “a huge gun to our heads”
Canadian Auto Workers voted overwhelm-
ingly in favour of a new contract that freez-
es pay and pension benefits.
Workers at General Motors voted 86 per
cent overall in favour of the deal, reached
last week, that will see labour costs at the
embattled car maker drop about $20 an
hour. CAW members at Oshawa voted on
Monday and local workers voted 82 per
cent in favour.
Having a deal in place enables GM to
apply for billions of dollars in aid from the
federal and provincial governments.
Speaking to about 3,000 CAW members
Monday morning, Local 222 president
Chris Buckley said, “This tentative agree-
ment allows us to survive. This wasn’t tra-
ditional bargaining. It wasn’t two-way bar-
gaining.”
The CAW was holding two ratification
meetings in Oshawa on Monday, as its
members voted on the latest contract nego-
tiations. It’s the third time the CAW and
General Motors have been at the bargaining
table. On March 6, the two sides reached a
deal to renegotiate the previously agreed
upon contract. The March 6 deal trimmed
about $7 an hour off labour costs.
However, the federal government said
that wasn’t enough if GM wanted billions in
aid and ordered the two sides back to the
table.
The newest agreement cuts GM’s labour
costs to about $57 a hour, equivalent to Toy-
ota’s costs.
“Let’s not kid anybody here today. We
don’t have a choice,” CAW president Ken
Lewenza said of the negotiations.
“We said to the government, you put the
pension fund into a position so it’s fully
funded. We never had that in March. Now
we have that,” Mr. Lewenza stated.
The biggest cheer came when he said to
Finance Minister Jim Flaherty, “we want
the same pension protection as autowork-
ers as you get as a Member of Parliament.
“I know this is tough on you. This is tough
on the bargaining committee. The bargain-
ing committee took its hearts into your
homes,” Mr. Lewenza said.
The labour situation is causing stress at
home and it’s affecting not only adults but
children as well, he said.
“Every minute of the last 15 days, we’ve
been in your homes, in Oshawa. We under-
stand what Ontario would look like without
an auto industry. We worked our asses off.
We ask that you support the agreement, to
give us the confidence to fight another day,”
Mr. Lewenza said.
“There’s not a lot of public support out
there for a bailout,” Mr. Buckley said, add-
ing members should “go to the local paper”
to read letters to the editor.
Mr. Buckley likened the current situation
to, “we have some damage to our house,
but we have left a solid foundation to build
on.
“We have done the responsible thing. It’s
been tough, it’s been gut-wrenching. Our
fight is far from over,” Mr. Buckley said.
Greg Moffatt, the plant chairman, said, “I
understand the frustration you feel. Retir-
ees can sleep at night, not worrying their
pension has been underfunded.”
“I know it’s been a terrible year. With aid
from the government, we’ll be able to fight
another day,” Mr. Moffatt stated.
Jim Stanford, an economist with the CAW,
said the union expects GM to file for bank-
ruptcy protection some time this week. If
that happens, under the agreement negoti-
ated, the union’s contract, including wages,
pensions and benefits, will remain. newsdurhamregion.comNews Advertiser • May 28, 20097

est citizens.
Pickering Mayor Dave Ryan, whose par-
ents immigrated to Canada in the 1920s,
thanked the group for having the courage
to leave their homes and come to Cana-
da.
“I have some sense of the sacrifice you
made bringing your family here to be part
of our community,” he said.
Adedoyin Leigh, like many of the people
at the event, became a Canadian citizen
last summer.
Mrs. Leigh said she came to Cana-
da from Nigeria to join her children and
grandchildren.
“Canada is a peaceful country, there is
not much crisis here,” she said. “Every-
thing about Canada is just beautiful.”
In addition to meeting with their local
representatives, many of the new citizens
got to know each other. Jannette Headley,
originally from Jamaica, and Shuae Wei
who came to Canada from China, were
among a group talking about the chal-
lenges of moving to a new country.
“The difficulty when we get here is
mainly in jobs, we have to settle for medi-
ocre jobs,” said Ms. Headley, who wishes
it was simpler to bring education creden-
tials to Canada from overseas.
“Once you start getting around and get-
ting to know the system, you’re able to fit
in and adjust,” she said.
Mr. Wei said he’s dealt with discrimina-
tion since he came to Canada and recent-
ly felt the need to change his first name on
job applications to “Andy”.
“I’m not comfortable with it, but you
know what, the reality is you have to sur-
vive in this society, you have to adapt,”
said Mr. Wei.
Overall, Ms. Headley said it was a good
gesture from Mr. Holland to arrange the
event. “We liked meeting each other, we
hit it right off,” she said.
“I became a citizen in 1979 and they
didn’t have a nice party for me,” added
another member of the group, Harry
Young, who originally came from Scot-
land.

Answer these fi ve questions to help achieve your fi nancial goals
When it comes to achieving your fi nancial goals, it’s important to take a strategic and analytical
approach. You need to understand what is important to you and your family so you can iden-
tify and reach your goals. Although there are many ways to work toward your goals, the key is
answering these fi ve important questions.
Where am I today?
Before you can plan for the future, you must assess where things stand right now. There is a lot
of information to review in addressing this question, including a list of monthly expenses, your
tax return, retirement plan statements and brokerage, bank or other fi nancial statements. All of
this will help provide a comprehensive, accurate overview of your current situation.
Where would I like to be?
After determining where you are today, you next need to set specifi c goals that can be related
to:
• Saving for retirement
• Living a comfortable retirement
• Funding a child’s education
• Helping support other family members
• Funding a vacation or second home
• Having appropriate insurance to protect your fi nancial goals
Can I get there?
Based on your current situation, future income requirements and comfort level with risk, you’ll
need to create and implement appropriate strategies that can help you achieve your goals.
How do I get there?
This is all about having an appropriate investment philosophy you can stick with. In particular,
it involves building a diversifi ed portfolio of quality investments and holding them for the long
term. Diversifi cation cannot guarantee profi t or protect against loss, but it is a strategy that has
proven to be successful for many investors.
How can I stay on track?
Meeting with your fi nancial advisor to review the plan at least once a year is essential. If any
of your goals or circumstances has changed, you can then make appropriate adjustments that
address your evolving needs.
Remember, take a strategic approach to your fi nancial strategy and make sure you have profes-
sional advice. Doing so could be the difference between achieving your fi nancial goals and
having to change them.

Get Off On The
Right Foot!
Health & Wellness ADVERTISING FEATURE
It is not uncommon for us to have one foot larger than the other or
an eye stronger than the other. But when one leg is longer than the
other leg, there are complications, which can become quite painful.
When the difference is substantial, the effect on gait and posture
can be quite disruptive.
There are two types of limb-length discrepancies. The first is
designated as structural. This is an actual difference in the skeletal
length of one leg. This could be caused by polio, hip replacement
or leg fracture. The other is known as a function discrepancy. The
actual length of the legs are the same but a curve in the back or a
dropped pelvis may lead to the difference in leg length.
Changes in walking patterns occur as your body tries to shorten
the longer leg and lengthen the shorter leg. This can be seen in the
foot whereby
the foot on the
shorter side
maintains
a higher
arch and the
patient will
bear weight
on the outside
of the foot.
This foot can
be a shoe

size smaller because of the higher arch. The foot
on the longer leg will lose some of its arch and
weight will be borne along the big toe side of the
foot. This foot, because of the fallen arch can be
a size longer. The foot on the shorter leg can be
prone to stress fractures as the foot is more rigid
while the leg on the longer side may be prone
to knee strains due to internal rotation of the leg.
The most common change in posture due to a
limb-length discrepancy is scoliosis, a curve in
the back. As a result of the scoliosis, the patient’s
pelvis will be tilted down on the shorter leg side;
the head and shoulder will be tilted down the
longer leg side and even the level of the fingers
when standing erect will be lower on the long
side.
Even skin-folds of the gluteal muscles (bum)
will be uneven. All this occurs so that the body compensates for the unevenness in the
length of the legs, which can lead to the patient walking with a limp.
The measurement of the length of legs is not very accurate. I use two different
methods and look for a raw difference as I measure from the belly button to the inside
ankle and also the top of the hipbone to the inside ankle.
Treatment involves lifts and/or orthotics. Purely structural deformities require a lift for
the shorter leg. Functional deformities are best treated with orthotics. Asymmetrical
problems should not be treated lightly. They are one of the leading causes of back
problems and the third most common cause of running injuries.

Question:
I’ve been working out religiously four times a
week for over four months and I haven’t lost any
weight, what am I doing wrong?
Answer:
Many of my clients are surprised to learn that
exercise is only part of the puzzle.
There are two main reasons why many people
work out consistently and yet still are not able to
reach their health and weight loss goals. The fi rst
is that you need to adjust your workout program
every four to six weeks in order to keep your body
challenged and the second and most important key
ingredient to success is nutrition.
Our body is extremely intelligent and learns
to adapt very quickly, this is why we provide
our clients at U Weight Loss with professional
workout programs. You must constantly change
your work out regime to challenge your body in
order to see the results you crave.
It is also a huge nutrition myth that if you work
out, you can eat whatever you want. The truth
is that 75-80% of the results you will experience
from any exercise program are in fact dependent
on your nutrition. You need to fuel your body
properly with the right nutrients emphasizing the
correct balance of lean proteins, essential fats
and low-glycemic carbohydrates to repair muscle
tissue in order to tone, build muscle and increase
your metabolism.
Nutrition is the cornerstone of health and the focus
at U Weight Loss.
Come in to U Weight Loss in Ajax or Pickering
and learn how to accelerate the results from your
exercise program and reach your health and weight
loss goal easily and quickly!

TWO SPORT ATHLETE
Dobson dives
into gymnastics
Qualifies for
provincials
in gymnastics
and diving
BY BRAD KELLY
bkelly@durhamregion.com
PICKERING -- Vicky Dobson has
learned a number of valuable les-
sons already through her partici-
pation in gymnastics and diving,
including how to overcome some
adversity.
Earlier in the competitive sea-
son, the Pickering resident broke
her hand, but that didn’t deter the
member of the Gemini Gymnas-
tics club in Oshawa. Coming off
the injury and with only one week
to prepare, she finished fifth at the
Ontario Cup to secure a place at the
Provincial Championships.
Fully healthy, the better the com-
petition got, the better she did.
At provincials in Windsor, her
third-place finish overall (bars
2nd, beam 9th, floor 3rd, vault 9th)
earned her a trip to Newfound-
land for the Eastern Canadians,
where she did one better with a sil-
ver medal finish in the Tyro 3 cat-
egory based on a 2nd on bars, 3rd
on beam, 2nd on floor and 5th on
vault.
“I think I was probably more
excited than nervous,” said the 11-
year-old of competing in a cou-
ple of prestigious events at such a
young age.
The Grade 5 student at French-
man’s Bay Public School started
gymnastics at the age of two in
Pickering, but switched to Gemini
three years ago and is under the
tutelage of former Olympic gold
medallist Elena Davydova.
“I’m not really sure, but, I guess
because flipping around and all
that stuff would be really fun to do,
so I just chose to do gymnastics,”
recalls Dobson of taking a liking to
the sport at an early age. “It’s real-
ly active and just really fun to do,
because you get to swing on the
bars and get to do all sorts of things
on the floor.
“It’s really hard work, but after, it
all pays off and it’s really fun to do.”
The experience she earned with
the trip to provincials in gymnas-
tics is something she can draw from
when she competes at the same
level in diving. A member of the
Scarborough Diving Club, where
she trains once a week, she will
represent the club in the 1- and 3-
metre springboard at the Provincial
Championships as well as qualify-
ing for Diving Canadian Nationals
next month.
Initially, she thought the skills
learned in gymnastics would trans-
fer well to diving.
“At first I didn’t even think I would
be competing, but then I ended up
being really good at it,” she said
with a hint of surprise in her voice.
Her ultimate goal is to obtain a
university scholarship for gymnas-
tics.

Powering to the top
PICKERING -- The Pickering Power Pumas U10 girls competitive soc-
cer team won the Woodbridge Lucas Cioui tournament for the sec-
ond year in a row. This time the title came in dramatic fashion, winning
in a shootout. Team members include, back row, from left: Alfonso
Garcia (head coach), Sid Van Abbema (asst. coach), Vanessa
Garcia (asst coach), Breanna Van Abbema (asst. coach), Amanda
Garcia (asst. coach), Saul Higginbotham (goalkeeper coach), Karen
Van Abbema (team manager); third row, from left: Katelin Phills,
Natassha Hassenstein, Isabella Ploszaj, Shantae Johnson; second
row: Kate Higginbotham, Destinee Muir, Nadia Sadri, Brianna Fequet,
Erin Agbay, Carly Kaziev; front row: goalkeeper Angela Cammisuli.
Neujahr brings home gold
PICKERING -- Sharp eyes, keen
reflexes and a steely gaze are the
attributes of a championship
marksman, and 856 Pickering
Air Cadet Squadron’s Flight Ser-
geant Mathias Neujahr used
these skills to bring home the
gold.
Competing at the National
Cadet Marksmanship Champi-
onship in Charlottetown P.E.I.,
16-year-old Neuhahr and his 14
Ontario teammates met cadet
rifle teams from every Canadi-
an province and territory, and
emerged as national champions.
Flight Sergeant Neujahr’s team
earned gold medals for Top Unit
Team, Top Composite Team and
overall Top Provincial Team. Sil-
ver medals came in the Team
Match and Standing competi-
tion, and a bronze went to Ontar-
io’s second Composite Team.
Shooting from a standing posi-
tion, Mathias is currently ranked
sixth in Canada.
Neujahr attends Father Leo
J. Austin Catholic Second-
ary School in Whitby, and is an
accomplished member of 856
Air Cadet Squadron’s Air Rifle
Team.
”He’s very focused and dedi-
cated. He’s come close to being
selected for the National Air
Rifle Team the previous two
years, so this is his dream year,”
says proud coach Major Colette
Blight, commanding officer of
856 Squadron.
Team Ontario’s win comes
after a year of intense local, area
and regional competitions.
Based on Olympic-style target
shooting, the cadet marksman-
ship program is an integral part
of cadet training that teaches
self-discipline, builds confidence
and allows cadets to compete
equally in a gender neutral rec-
reational sport. It is one of many
popular activities offered by the
Canadian Cadet Organizations,
the Royal Canadian Sea, Army
and Air Cadets. Membership is
open all youth aged 12-18 and
there are no fees to enroll. Visit
www.cadets.ca for full informa-
tion.

KICK-OFFKICK-OFF
AJAX-PICKERING VARSITY
Dolphins open with win
DURHAM -- The Ajax-Pickering Dol-
phins Junior Ontario Varsity team opened
the season with a big 33-17 win against
the Metro Toronto Wildcats on Saturday
night.
The Ontario Varsity League is the pre-
mier league in Ontario for football with
teams comprised of the best players from
their high schools and area, playing clubs
from all across the province. The league is
heavily scouted by universities for future
talent and it is an excellent opportunity to
see the best of the best play against each
other.
Playing on their home field, Metro
punched the first touchdown across after
forcing a mistake by the Dolphins on a
punt for a 7-0 lead. Dolphins quarter-
back Mike Stobbart hooked up with A.J.
Thomas on a 40-yard pass completion
to take the ball down to the Metro eight,
then the two hooked up again two plays
later for the touchdown, but missed the
convert.
After Metro went up 14-6, Stobbart
again found Thomas in the end zone with
a 35-yard completion to finish the half
down one at 14-13.
After D’Shane Chung returned the third-
quarter kickoff 85 yards to the Metro 10, it
only took two plays for Stobbart to take it
in for the major. The linebackers, includ-
ing Garrett Mole, Jason Harrison, Alex
Horodnyk and Patrick Stewart chipped
in as Mole made a huge hit on the Metro
quarterback and Stewart picked up the
ball and took it in for the major.
In the fourth quarter, Kami Brown made
a big play on defence and three plays later
Stobbart pitched to Chung on the option
for another major.
The Dolphins travel to Toronto to face
the Thunder in game two of the season
on Sunday.
