PICKERING TO SEE NEW DEVELOPMENTS, DOWNTOWN PLANNING
BY KRISTEN CALIS
kcalis@durhamregion.com
PICKERING -- The summer’s winding down
and after a lot of work and little play, Mayor
Dave Ryan is gearing up for the coming
council session.
Mayor Ryan envisions a great downtown
along Kingston Road in Pickering’s future
and plans to focus on that in the coming
year.
A big advocate for a Durham West Arts
Centre, he believes Pickering would make a
great home for it.
“I believe that for a community to be com-
plete, you have to accommodate the cultur-
al needs of the community,” he said.
He added he can’t see the centre, which
would be a joint public and private ven-
ture, being realized for another five years,
but hopes a site will be chosen in the near
future.
An arts centre would bring jobs to the area
and stimulate the economy, he said.
“People go downtown Toronto to the the-
atre because there isn’t anywhere else to
go,” he said.
It could also provide a space for

P Plans for a
downtown
Pickering has, in the past, been
seen as a service corridor with the
Ontario Power Generation nuclear sta-
tion, hydro corridor and hosting City of
Toronto dump sites, Mayor Dave Ryan
said. Pickering also lost the area of
Pickering Village to Ajax and has basi-
cally had to start rebuilding its down-
town from scratch.
“In spite of that we have evolved
into a very dynamic community with a
great deal of potential,” he said.
With Pickering being the first city
east of Toronto, and its diversity and
business development increasing, he
feels Pickering has much to offer.
Third Tower
SR and R Bay Ridges Ltd. purchased
the land on the southwest corner of Liv-
erpool Road and Bayly Street in 2006
that used to be home to the Bay Ridges
Plaza, where locals, especially seniors,
enjoyed shops and services close to
home. The company intended to build
San Francisco by the Bay, a mixed-use
development consisting of 161 town-
houses and two apartment buildings (16
and 18 storeys) and 25,000 square feet
of retail or commercial space. Despite
outrage from the community, over con-
cerns the density will cause too much
traffic in the area, council approved the
plans. If approved when it comes to
council, the third tower will make a total
of 734 units on the site.
Durham West Arts Centre
The organization was formed in 2004.
The aim is to link artists, art lovers and
art groups to promote and facilitate
world-class contemporary arts and cul-
ture right in Durham Region. The orga-
nization plans to build an arts centre in

private partnerships, including the City

HIGHRISES from page 1
FAST FACTS
Pickering is right on the edge of the next stage in our
evolution. Mayor Dave Ryan
convocation ceremonies for students from Durham College and the University of
Ontario Institute of Technology, plus performance space for students studying
theatre at the University of Toronto’s Scarborough Campus.
He believes, in general, council agrees on the need for an arts centre in
Pickering; some may have differing opinions on design and location specifics.
The intensification of the downtown will continue with highrises on the
way. Council will see an application for a highrise at Valley Farm and Kings-
ton roads and another on an already contentious item: the third tower for SR
and R Bay Ridges Ltd.’s mixed-use development of San Francisco by the Bay, at
Bayly Street and Liverpool Road.
He believes the third tower is a good, practical use of the site and “ulti-
mately I think it will be approved and it should be approved.”
The City is waiting to hear back from upper levels of government regard-
ing funding for the long-awaited pedestrian bridge that would cross Hwy.
401 from the Pickering GO station, which many consider a catalyst for the
downtown development.
Then there’s the big developments planned for Pickering’s northern com-
munities. The City will continue to plan for Seaton and Duffin Heights, focusing
on sustainability and ensuring Pickering has a strong presence at the table dur-
ing the planning processes.
“Pickering is right on the edge of the next stage in our evolution,” he said.
While Pickering is trying to obtain a high standard of development, at the same
time practical considerations have to be made, Mayor Ryan said. While there’s no
disagreement among councillors regarding sustainable development, “there has to
be give and take” in order to make realistic decisions, he said.
So will he run again in the 2010 municipal election in hopes of continuing to be a
strong voice for Pickering’s future?
“There’s no question,” he said. “I very much enjoy doing what I’m doing.”

DURHAM -- Provincial test
results show almost half of
students who don’t meet
provincial math standards
in Grade 6, don’t in Grade 9
applied math either.
Although specific school
board information won’t be
released until Sept. 17, Luig-
ia Ayotte of the Durham Dis-
trict School Board expects to
see similar results to those of
the province, she said.
“I think Durham is pretty
indicative of the trends you
see provincially,” Ms. Ayotte
said.
The Education Quality
and Accountability Office
(EQAO) recently released
provincial highlights of the
2009 assessments in reading,
writing, and math for Grade
3 and Grade 6, as well as the
Grade 9 math assessment.
The number of students
who met or exceeded a level
three (equivalent to a B), has
increased by three percent-
age points to 69 per cent for
Grade 6 reading, and four
points for Grade 9 applied
math to 38 per cent.
But of the Grade 9 applied
math provincial results, 48
per cent of students who
didn’t reach the standard
failed to in Grade 6 math as
well, according to the EQAO.
“It is something we study
too,” said Tracy Barill, super-
intendent of the Durham
Catholic District School
Board, referring to the cohort
information.
“When we see these kinds
of results, we want to delve
deeper into what’s happen-
ing,” she added.
As a board, they haven’t
had an opportunity to ana-
lyze the provincial results or
their own yet, Ms. Barill said.
In the Catholic board, con-
tinuum-based math has
been implemented to help
diagnose misconceptions
and correct problems early
on to reduce their impact on
the future, Ms. Barill said.
They also use information
from other assessments to
see how students are improv-
ing overall. The EQAO is just
a snapshot or dip-stick test,
and doesn’t really reflect
how a student is doing over-
all, Ms. Barill added.
“We’re anxious to work
through the results of our
own data,” Ms. Barill said.
Comparing cohorts is
something they’ve only
recently been able to do
because previously, there
wasn’t enough data accu-
mulated to do so, she said.
The public board also con-
siders cohort information,
although locally it doesn’t
consider move in and move
outs, Ms. Ayotte said. Over-
all the public board is seeing
a positive increase in results,
she added.
In math, the academic
stream results are going up,
but results for applied math
show it’s an area that needs
work, Ms. Ayotte said.
There are various fac-
tors in what contributes to
the results, but she believes
they need to pay really close
attention to the curriculum
and ensuring they’re teach-
ing to it, she added.
“It is quite rigorous,” Ms.
Ayotte said. “It has very high
expectations.”
That’s not to say they
shouldn’t be working toward
meeting the expectations,
she added.
For applied math, they have
coaches in place to help, but
really it’s a combination of
work done in kindergarten to
Grade 9, Ms. Ayotte said.
“It is something we have
to address and look at very
closely at each grade level,”
Ms. Ayotte said.

arrests, drug seizure
in west Durham
AJAX-PICKERING -- Dur-
ham police made arrests
and seized thousands of
dollars in drugs during two
separate incidents early Fri-
day morning.
Just after midnight, police
stopped a vehicle that was
missing a validation stick-
er, on Brock Road North in
Pickering. When the offi-
cers tried to speak with the
three males inside the vehi-
cle, they say the men ran
away. Police chased them
on foot with the Air 1 heli-
copter and the K-9 unit
assisting. One man was
located hiding in a shed on
Guild Road. Police say he
resisted arrest and both he
and two officers received
minor injuries in a scuffle.
A second man was arrested
nearby without incident.
Police say they have iden-
tified the third man and
charges are pending. Two
of the three men had condi-
tions placed on them by the
courts requiring them to
stay out of Durham unless
accompanied by their sure-
ty or at school.
An 18-year-old Ajax
man, whose name was not
released, was charged with
assault with intent to resist
police, using a plate not for
a vehicle, driving a motor
vehicle with no validation,
driving a motor vehicle and
failing to display two plates
and operating a motor
vehicle without insurance.
A 15-year-old Toronto male
is charged with breach of
recognizance and obstruct-
ing a police officer.
Later that morning,
just before 3 a.m., police
stopped a van travelling
with no lights on Kings-
ton Road in Ajax. Officers
seized $2,800 cash, $8,000
in crystal meth and $200 in
marijuana from the vehi-
cle. Charges are pending
against three people, a 25-
year-old Windsor man, a
54-year-old Windsor man
and a 17-year-old female of
no fixed address.
The arrests are part of a
proactive enforcement ini-
tiative in support of the
Durham Region Anti-Vio-
lence Intervention Strat-
egy, funded by the Minis-
try of Community Safety
and Correctional Services.
To date, the unit has made

ple in 2008.

UNIONS
Management, unions
must work
for a common purpose
To the editor:
Re: ‘Unions must find their way back to
the souls of Canadians’, editorial, Sept. 2.
Kudos to This Week for exploring the dis-
dain of unions controversy, currently a hot
topic in light of recent negotiations and
concessions. But there is also disdain, by
some, for management.
One factor barely mentioned is excessive
avarice, or greed, if you will, on both sides
of the bargaining table. It’s subtly opera-
tional, but always present.
Abraham Maslow, a well-known psy-
chologist turned author, developed a wide-
ly accepted theory dubbed “the hierarchy
of needs.”
In essence, he said no matter what one’s
socio-economic status in life, one always
wants more. Simply put, it’s a trait of
human nature.
But there are two sides of the same coin.
Management wants to pay the lowest pos-
sible wages. Unions want top dollar plus
excessive benefits. Vast wealth accumula-
tion is accepted practice of big business,
sometimes so blatant that some of those at
the top go to jail.
Like it or not, I believe unions are here
to stay. Their tarnished image needs to be
reworked, but managements could also
use some polishing.
The common purpose on both sides of
issues should be the same, so aptly put by
the editorial -- to seek justice for the com-
mon people, not disrespect.

ELECTION
Failure to govern
lies at the feet of the
Conservatives
To the editor:
Re: ‘Skip the federal election and try govern-
ing for a change’, editorial, Sept. 3.
The premise of your most recent editorial
is at least 50 per cent on the money. There is
indeed a failure to govern, but that failure lies
solely at the feet of the Harper Conservatives.
The recent hullabaloo over Harper’s false
claims that an election would kill the Home
Renovation Tax Credit, passed by Parliament
eight months ago, serves as the perfect exam-
ple. What Mr. Harper needs to explain is why,
if the Liberals already supported the January
budget, including this tax credit, has his gov-
ernment not done its homework in getting it
finalized? Moreover, why did Harper spend
millions of dollars to advertise something
that his government was either too incom-
petent or too eager to play political games to
actually implement with other budget mea-
sures, many months ago? Despite the Con-
servative government’s incompetence, the
Liberals have made it clear that they sup-
port the Home Renovation Tax Credit, and
it will stand whether we have an election or
not. But if it’s governance you’re looking for,
it seems we’ll have as much during an elec-
tion as we’ve been getting anyway.

PET OWNERSHIP
Dog’s owner
should step forward
To the editor:
Regarding Phoenix, the neglected dog
found in Courtice, I really hope what goes
around comes around. After learning last
night the cancer is inoperable, I’m sad that
cold, heartless people like the dog’s owner
exist. All that poor dog wanted was uncon-
ditional love. It’s this simple, if you don’t
want an animal, don’t get one. There really
should be a law against certain people own-
ing animals. If you have any conscience at all,
you would turn yourself in. You should be
ashamed of yourself.

Pickering makes plans for a whole new downtown
Growth must be
planned properly
As Pickering councillors return to the
council table, Mayor Dave Ryan hopes to
overcome Pickering’s identity crisis.
Pickering has been seen alternately as
a service centre, as a home to the Ontario
Power Generation nuclear station, or even
as a host of the City of Toronto dump sites.
But Mayor Ryan wants to change that
with a focus this term on establishing a
downtown and setting the groundwork for
a Durham West Arts Centre.
While Pickering has a lot of shopping
areas, the mayor has long been an advo-
cate for a downtown, which he hopes to
establish along Kingston Road.
To coincide with a new downtown, the
mayor hopes to get moving on a new arts
centre, one he strongly believes should be
in Pickering.
“People go to downtown Toronto to the
theatre because there isn’t anywhere else
to go,” he said.
In 2004 the City and PineRidge Arts
Council got together with other partners
to begin the planning for the centre, which
the mayor believes will bring jobs to the
area and stimulate the economy. It may not
be built for five years but the mayor realiz-
es work has to begin now if it is to become
a reality.
The two would make a great focal point
for a city looking for an identity.
And like many other communities,
Pickering has to deal with issues surround-
ing growth. But in Pickering’s case, that
growth is massive with the Seaton com-
munity planned to be home to 70,000 new
people within the next 20 years.
Pickering has consistently fought for new
jobs to accompany the residential growth
and has stated over and over again that
one new job must be created for every two
new residents.
That’s a lofty goal but one that makes
sense to ensure the city doesn’t become
more of a bedroom community.
Council will also be faced with a decision
to approve a new, third tower at the San
Francisco by the Bay residential develop-
ment.
If approved, the tower will provide for
a total of 734 units on the site. While area
residents are concerned about traffic, the
tower is a good fit and should be approved
by council.
As we draw nearer to a municipal elec-
tion year, councillors should stay focused
on the job they were elected for, manage
growth properly and keep taxes as low as
possible.

P
WE THINK... email responses to newsroom@durhamregion.com
I’ve been living in a hotel room now for
close to a month and it’s starting to take
its toll. The first few days of hotel living
are usually quite enjoyable. The novelty
of room service and housekeeping are
delightful changes from our normal rou-
tine. We have very few, if any, responsi-
bilities. No spouses to consider, no chil-
dren to tend to; we needn’t even pick the
towels up off of the bathroom floor.
But I have discovered, to my dismay,
that humans need routine. We need
responsibilities and purpose and sched-
ule. Without them, our lives become
frayed at the edges. We lose our edge,
our mental acuity and we end up walk-
ing around naked, talking to ourselves.
Which can be a real shock when the
room service girl brings up our beer-bat-
tered fish and chips.
I understand now that if you reside in
a hotel long enough, it begins to very
accurately resemble a stay in a mini-
mum security prison. The inmates are
free to roam the grounds during the day.
We have a gym to work out in, a lounge
to lounge in and we very often take our
meals together in the dining room. The
guards wear the uniforms of hotel staff
and have nametags with pleasant mon-
ikers like ‘Chantelle’ and ‘Ernie’ and
‘Mae-Ling’ on them. They smile and get
to know us by our first names. They are
very helpful and happy to point out what
the day’s activities might entail; a trip to
the farmers’ market, a walk around the
park, a jaunt to a nearby bookseller. It is
all very friendly and civil.
But make no mistake, come sundown,
we all return to our cells. We do not go
home. We do not kiss the children good
night. We do not sit in our favourite chair
and listen to the comforting sounds of
the life we have built, ticking away to
gentle slumber.
We hang our ‘Do not disturb’ signs on
our cell doors, slam them shut and bolt
home the safety locks. The soothing,
familiar rhythms of our sleeping homes
are replaced with the clockwork exhala-
tions of the air conditioner fan, the cold,
mechanical belchings of the ice machine
and the clinking glass of the room ser-
vice trolley’s lonely peregrinations.
Your room becomes your world. And,
like the prisoner you are, you pace it, cir-
cle it, explore every corner and closet.
Your failing mind, desperate for stimu-
lation, drives you to tweak every switch,
knob and dial. And thus begins the inex-
orable downward spiral to madness.
You mumble. You babble. You talk out
loud. You giddily discover that, with a lit-
tle effort, you can watch television from
the toilet seat. You converse greedily and
inanely with the maid until, eyes wide
with terror, she flees with her vacuum
down the hall. And, like a bearded, hol-
low-eyed character from a Dafoe novel,
you listen intently to the stirrings and
goings-on in the cells around you, cer-
tain that they have found an amusement
you have overlooked.
And all the while you are haunted by
the spectre of the scene outside your her-
metically sealed window. A window that
shows you a world where people stroll
hand in hand through parks, where men
and woman laugh, touch one another
and chat animatedly over tables crowd-
ed with food and drink, where dogs run
with abandon, leap and catch Frisbees.
A world that you are of, but not in.
Never in.
Boy, I can’t get home fast enough.

This is a photo of Oshawa Generals play-
er Mike Zador, taken during a training day
with the Durham Regional Police Tactical
Unit, a team-building exercise, involving cir-
cuit training and rappelling off the parking
garage on Mary Street in downtown Oshawa.
Here, the hockey player is rappelling down
a chute from the top of the parking garage.
I particularly like this photo because of the
lighting and the composition. The player is
mostly silhouetted except for a small cast of
light on his face. I was at the bottom shooting
straight up with an 80-200mm lens while try-
ing to avoid getting hit in the head with small
rocks. The rectangle shape of the chute,
combined with the natural light and the way
he filled the frame all seemed to work out.
Sometimes timing is everything.
MIKE JOHNSTON
Last week I wrote about the dilemma we
were facing in the newsroom on whether to
name a teacher who pleaded guilty this past
July to sexual interference and a reduced
charge of sexual assault.
She was charged in February when police
discovered a teacher and a 14-year-old boy
engaged in a sexual act in a rural area of Clar-
ington.
While we have her name, we are faced with
a concern about a court ban, which prohib-
its publishing anything which could identify
the victim, in this case, the 14 year old. Some
in the legal profession have told us the ban
includes identifying the teacher.
I asked our readers if they had any thoughts
and I received some interesting responses.
Here are a few of the comments:
“As someone close to the family of the
14-year-old boy, and knowing that every-
one around him already know, this public-
ity ban does not make sense. It is protecting
the accused from being centered out by her
peers and her community as they should for
her abuse of the trust of our children in both
school and sport.”
“The community has a right to know about
this crime and the way she groomed this
young boy and his family. The Clarington
community should know who it is as they
may have children who play with her chil-
dren and therefore are exposed, she should
be known as a sexual predator in the com-
munity.”
“Should parents not be offered the oppor-
tunity to talk to their children and ask if she
was inappropriate in any manner?”
“If and when you can publish -- do so legal-
ly while keeping in mind that by publishing
her name, you risk exposing her victim to
embarrassment and ridicule by his peers.”
The teacher is to be sentenced on Sept. 14.
Our court reporter Jeff Mitchell will be there
to cover the sentence and get to the bottom of
the ban.

OSHAWA -- UOIT students, staff and judges buzzed around the Student Research Showcase at UOIT. The sixth annual event gives students a chance to showcase and dis-
cuss their research projects.

kgilligan@durhamregion.com
DURHAM -- Sixty-five posters
were pinned up at the UOIT
campus, but these weren’t
the normal art that can be
found adorning the wall of a
student’s dorm room.
The posters were a syn-
opsis of work done by UOIT
students and were part of
the sixth annual Student
Research Showcase.
Dr. John Perz, assistant pro-
vost, research at the univer-
sity, said, “Conducting lead-
ing-edge research relevant
to the needs of society is a
core enterprise of UOIT. The
Student Research Showcase,
held regularly near the end
of each summer, is intended
to recognize and inspire our
graduate and undergradu-
ate students who have dedi-
cated themselves intensely to
research over the past year.”
Laura Henderson is going
into her third year, major-
ing in physics. She spent the
summer working with Dr.
Anatoli Chkrebtii on the uses
of certain types of silicons
that could be used to make
cheaper solar cells and com-
puters.
She got involved because
“this seemed quite interest-
ing. I can learn while get-
ting paid. This physics is a
lot more advanced than my
under-grad classes,” Ms.
Henderson said. “This has
been fun. I get to play on the
computer all day.”
Beheshta Moshref and
Naghmeh Payman worked
on student and staff percep-
tions and a needs analysis on
mental health services at the
university and Durham Col-
lege.Ms. Moshref is returning
to school in the fall to com-
plete her degree in health sci-
ences. They wanted to know
the “challenges around men-
tal health,” Ms. Moshref said.
Surveys were sent to all stu-
dents at the university and
college, with 635 responding.
Of those responding, most
were full-time students
and “74 per cent felt over-
whelmed. It’s pretty signifi-
cant,” Ms. Moshref noted.
The “vast majority never
use the services” available to
students, Ms. Moshref said.
“The majority use their facil-
ity member to help them.”
One of their recommenda-
tions is to “educate students
about depression and coping
mechanisms. Staff say ‘we do
not have enough training to
help students,’” she added.
Hiring a psychiatrist would
be a benefit to students, she
said.
“We only have two coun-
sellors at this campus and it’s
growing year over year.”
Jennifer Foden, a graduate
in the criminology and justice
studies, worked on a project
titled Ripped from the Head-
lines: Fact to Fiction Manipu-
lation in Law and Order: Spe-
cial Victims Unit.
“I took a set of episodes and
compared them to the real-
life cases they were based on
and I charted the differenc-
es,” Ms. Foden said.
Of the cases she studied,
“Fifty-six per cent of the time,
the motive was changed.
They were a lot more dra-
matic and sensationalized,”
she noted.
She pointed to the case
of Terri Schiavo, a Florida
woman who suffered per-
manent brain injuries in
1990. She was left in a perma-
nent vegetative state and her
husband, Michael, fought a
lengthy legal battle to have
her feeding tube removed.
On the TV show, the hus-
band was shown wanting the
woman to die so he could get
a substantial inheritance.
“Research shows the more
you watch TV, the more your
views reflect TV,” Ms. Foden
stated. “So people who watch
the Schiavo episode, they
believe that’s what actually
happened.”
In real life, Mr. Schiavo
didn’t inherit money. He
wanted the feeding tube
removed so his wife wouldn’t
continue to live in that condi-
tion. TV shows “shape per-
spectives on real-life issues,”
Ms. Foden said. “I think I
went in with the assumption
it would be a little bit more
dramatic. I was surprised to
the extent it was.”
She’s been accepted to
present her information
at the American Society of
Criminology convention in
Philadelphia in November.
Research shows the more
you watch TV, the more your views reflect TV.

ENVIRONMENTAL STUDY REPORT
Improving the Frenchman’s Bay harbour entrance was identifi ed as a
priority project in the City of Pickering’s 5 Year Implementation Plan for the
Pickering Waterfront and Frenchman’s Bay.
The Toronto and Region Conservation (TRCA) on behalf of the City of
Pickering has completed the Environmental Study Report (ESR) and by this
Notice it is being placed in the public record for review.
The ESR recommends enclosure of the east log crib in steel sheet pile lined
with sloped rip-rap and armour stone as well as construction of a new
western armour stone breakwater located further west to facilitate an
entrance channel 30 m wide at the navigation depth of 3.2 m below datum.
Formal pedestrian access will consist of concrete walkways on both the east
and west breakwaters, which will tie into existing trails and the City’s long-
term waterfront trail plans.
This project was planned under Schedule C of the Municipal Class
Environmental Assessment, October 2000, as amended in 2007.
The ESR is available for review on the City of Pickering’s and TRCA’s websites:
cityofpickering.com and trca.on.ca and at the following locations:

Tough days ahead for smokers
BY JILLIAN FOLLERT
jfollert@durhamregion.com
DURHAM -- Health care experts estimate 70 per cent of
smokers want to kick their addiction. Statistics say that
left to their own devices, only about seven per cent will
achieve success long term. In comparison, the data sug-
gests that 30 per cent of smokers who seek help from
health care professionals manage to become smoke
free.
Metroland Durham Region Media Group wanted to
test that theory -- and help stack the odds in favour of
some Durham residents who desperately want to butt
out.
We asked local smokers to tell us their stories and
were overwhelmed with more than 100 phone calls and
e-mails in 48 hours.
Three participants were chosen to take part in a six-
week quitting challenge.
Experts from the Durham Region Smoking Cessation
Network -- a group of local pharmacists, nurses, doc-
tors, and dentists who are passionate about helping
people quit -- will be providing the participants with
resources, guidance and support. We will be bringing
you their story in print and online at www.newsdur-
hamregion.com every other Wednesday, throughout
August and September.
Our three participants have started their quitting
journey and are discovering that, even with an arsenal
of quitting tools, it’s a bumpy road.
There have been setbacks and successes but so far,
everyone is still in the game. This Week checked in with
Marven, Sherrie and John two weeks after their meeting
with the health-care experts from the Durham Region
Smoking Cessation Network.

John Hatch
Age 18
Oshawa resident
Quitting tools: Nicotine gum and nicotine inhaler
The week and three days since John Hatch’s quit date have
been marked with successes and setbacks.
“The first few days were actually OK, it started getting really
hard around the sixth and seventh day,” said the 18 year old,
who is spending the summer working at Halendas before
attending Durham College in the fall.
He’s managed to keep cravings at bay by switching up rou-
tines that tempt him to smoke, like going outside with a cup
of tea in the morning, instead of sitting down in the kitchen
with a coffee.
But, it’s been tough to avoid all temptation, especially with
parents who both smoke in the house and co-workers who
take regular smoke breaks.
“I had a bit of a setback ...I went to a company party and
smoked three times,” Mr. Hatch says, shaking his head.
“Everyone else was smoking, I was having a great time, it just
happened.”
But he’s back on track now and says the nicotine inhaler is
proving to be a huge help, although he isn’t a big fan of the
nicotine gum.
“It has a sour taste ...it’s not pleasant,” Mr. Hatch said. “But
the inhaler is the best thing in the world, it’s got me through
some really rough patches.”
So far, Mt. Hatch hasn’t experienced any side effects from
the quitting products and says his only nicotine withdrawal
symptoms have been “a little” moodiness and irritability.
Sherrie Webber
Age 26
Oshawa resident
Quitting tools: Nicotine lozenges and nicotine inhaler
Sherrie Webber hasn’t managed to butt out completely,
but a week and five days after her quit date, she’s down to
less than a pack a day. It’s a big improvement compared to
the nearly two packs a day she was smoking before.
“It’s been really hard, my sleep has been interrupted
because of my nerves, I’m shaking like crazy, I’m coughing
more,” she said. “But I know it’s for the best, so I have to stick
with it.”
Ms. Webber has been using the lozenges and inhaler regu-
larly and says they both help, although she isn’t a fan of the
“cough drop” taste of the lozenges.
She notes it’s especially helpful if she flicks her lighter
before putting the inhaler to her lips, tricking her brain into
thinking it’s a cigarette.
Distraction has also been key, Ms. Webber says. She’s been
spending a lot of time watching TV, browsing Facebook,
chatting on the phone and reading.
“When I’m reading, I make myself read 150 pages before I
can have a cigarette,” Ms. Webber says. “Little things like that
help a lot.”
Inspired by her progress, her father, Jamie Webber, has also
been cutting back on cigarettes. It’s an emotional issue for
the whole family because Ms. Webber’s mom died from lung
cancer last year.
“I’m very proud of her,” Mr. Webber said. “If she can do it, I
can do it.”
Ms. Webber said she plans to quit completely in another
week.
Marven Whidden
Age 46
Clarington resident
Quitting tools: Champix medication and nicotine inhaler
Marven Whidden started taking Champix the day after par-
ticipants met with health-care experts. Smokers typically start
the pills eight to 14 days before their quit date, so the medica-
tion has time to start working.
He smoked his last cigarette 11 days later on a Sunday night,
figuring that a Monday morning would be a good time to start
life as a non-smoker.
Thirty-six hours in, Mr. Whidden was going strong and not
feeling much in the way of nicotine withdrawal symptoms or
side effects from the medication.
“I feel pretty good,” he said, while walking his dog in the park
after finishing a 12-hour overnight shift at Toronto Hydro.
“It’s really hard, but I feel like this time I’m going to do it.”
Mr. Whidden said he’s tackling the behavioural side of
things by distracting himself with online poker or walks with
his dog, and staying away from situations that he associates
with smoking -- like hanging out in his garage.
“I had a craving after dinner the other night, because smok-
ing after eating is a big thing for me,” he said. “That’s when I
used the inhaler. I puffed on it for about three minutes and it
helped.”
And, he said, Champix is doing a good job of subduing the
physical nicotine cravings.
“The craving will be on my mind, then an hour later I realize
it’s gone and I just forgot about it,” he said.
The real test will be an upcoming golf trip with his buddies.
Sitting around, enjoying a few beers -- it’s a recipe for tempta-
tion.
“Wish me luck,” he said.

Police release
images of
fraud suspect
Credit cards stolen and used
for purchases
DURHAM -- Police have released video surveil-
lance of a fraud suspect or suspects in hopes that
someone can help identify them.
According to Durham Regional Police, the per-
son or people shown in the surveillance bought
items in Oshawa with credit cards stolen from a
vehicle in Goodwood.
The two credit cards were apparently taken
from a Goodwood resident who left his wallet
inside his vehicle overnight. Their absence wasn’t
noticed until the next day, June 21, because the
wallet wasn’t removed.
During the few hours prior to the credit cards’
cancellation, surveillance cameras caught them
being used 11 different times at seven retail stores
in Oshawa, racking up $5,100 in purchases. They
were also declined five other times mid-after-

ENVIRONMENT
Scugog wind turbine plan runs out of room
Government
regulations force
company to rethink,
shelve green
energy idea
BY CHRIS HALL
chall@durhamregion.com
SEAGRAVE -- The wind has
been taken out of the sails of an
ambitious, but controversial,
plan to introduce a green energy
operation to the Seagrave area.
During a brief appearance
before Scugog councillors on
Monday morning, Jim Sheehan
announced that his proposal to
erect a series of wind turbines
on a parcel of farmland along the
Simcoe Street corridor just north
of Seagrave has been quashed.
“The project is over,” said Mr.
Sheehan, president of Standard
Power Corporation.
In late June, Mr. Sheehan envi-
sioned having a small ‘wind gar-
den’, featuring six wind turbines,
up and spinning at the corner
of Simcoe Street and Saintfield
Road by mid-2010. Each of those
towers, estimated to be around
80 metres in height, with 35-
metre blades, was expected to
create 1.5 megawatts of power
which, in turn, translated into 9.5
megawatts of hydro -- enough
electricity to light up about 7,000
homes.
At the Aug. 31 council meeting,
however, Mr. Sheehan explained
that setbacks included in the
Province’s proposed Green Ener-
gy Act have prompted Standard
Power Corporation officials to
reconsider the Seagrave project.
Under the proposed regula-
tions, the wind turbines would
have to be 550 metres from any
home and 150 metres from lands
designated as greenspace.
“When you look at the setbacks,
we’d be confined to much fewer
turbines and the only way to off-
set that is to go bigger,” explained
Mr. Sheehan.
To do that, he continued,
Standard Power would have to
amend its plans and utilize three
turbines of three megawatts on
towers that would rise to 100
metres or higher.
“We have to shelve the Sea-
grave project because 100-metre
towers and three megawatts (tur-
bines) are not valid for the com-
munity,” he said.
“We need to hit the nine mega-
watts mark to make it worthwhile
and the only way we can do that
is to use 100-metre towers and
three megawatts turbines, which
you could clearly see from here
and I don’t think that’s good for
our community,” said Mr. Shee-
han in the Scugog council cham-
bers, located in Port Perry’s
downtown core.
Since word first spread that
Mr. Sheehan’s Port Perry-based
company was launching studies
looking into the feasibility of set-
ting up a wind-energy operation
in Seagrave, dozens of residents
in the small hamlet have stood in
opposition to the plan.
“I’m sure there’s a sigh of relief
from some of the folks in Sea-
grave now that the project has
been taken off your list,” said
Scugog Mayor Marilyn Pearce.
Among those opposing the
alternative energy proposal was
Seagrave resident Mirella Mini-
cucci.
“I’m glad to hear (Mr. Sheehan)
... will find a more suitable loca-
tion,” she told councillors during
a brief appearance.
She said that homeowners in
the Seagrave area had raised
concerns about reduced prop-
erty values and the loss of trees
and livestock if the wind turbine
project was allowed to proceed.
As discussions on wind tur-
bines drew to a close, Mayor
Pearce said that she hopes to
“see more green energy projects
in Scugog sometime,” but added
that more has to be done to con-
serve power.
“I hope everyone realizes that
we can do a lot more to stop inva-
sions in rural and urban areas if
we do more to conserve energy,”
she said.
“The windmill has become the
symbol of a wasteful society.”
FAST FACTS
Other sites in
Durham considered
for wind turbines
Besides the wind turbine project pro-
posed for Scugog, Mr. Sheehan is
also eyeing a handful of other projects
for Durham Region.
He noted he is looking into four
other potential alternative energy
operations here in Durham, of either
the wind or bio-gas variety. He
declined to disclose those potential
sites.
“We’re currently in the process
of looking at other options in Durham
Region. We’re not going to stop,” said
Mr. Sheehan, stressing that such
green energy projects would create
a myriad of jobs for employment-
starved Durham. “We can literally
build any project with 80 per cent of
the talent from Durham Region. There
is so much talent here.”

RUGBY
Rugby sport of choice for Smith
Pickering teen
hoping
for exchange
to England
BY BRAD KELLY
bkelly@durhamregion.com
PICKERING -- A trip out to the
east coast this summer for some
high level rugby competition
may just be the beginning of a
much longer journey for Sean
Smith.
In fact, if he’s lucky enough,
a trip to England to spend a
semester at a private school
there and play rugby may be on
the horizon in 2010 or 2011.
“I would leave in a second,”
says the 15-year-old at the pros-
pect.
The teenager is one of 11 who
has applied for the exchange
program, with eight chosen
to go. The Pickering resident
expects to find out next summer
if he is one of the lucky eight.
Not bad for a kid who just
started playing last year as a
Grade 9 student at Pine Ridge
Secondary School, who tried
out for the varsity rugby team
and developed under the guid-
ance of coaches Brian Natola
and George Buford.
“A couple of coaches told me
I had the size for it, and I like
aggression and physical play, so
I thought it would be my sport,”
says Smith, a 5-foot-11, 164
pound inside centre. “My first
run I got a try. I started liking it
after that.”
He spent the summer playing
for the Ajax Wanderers U15 and
U16 teams, but his time away
from school was highlighted
by making the provincial U15
team.
One of 36 players on the ini-
tial roster, he played in games
against England and Wales, and
then was included in a group of
24 that travelled to Newfound-
land and Labrador for a six-day
tour.
“It was a great experience
because I haven’t really trav-
elled before and it was my first
year so I was happy with it.”
He also played a year up with
the U16 national team in a tour-
nament at Fletcher’s Fields in
Markham.
While soccer was the sum-
mer sport of choice since the
age of eight, and rep hockey
fills the winter void, rugby has
taken over the top spot now.
He’s already looking forward
to seven-a-side fall varsity try-
outs that should begin soon at
school, with the full program
running in the spring.
JASON LIEBREGTS / METROLAND
PICKERING -- Sean Smith played on the Ontario rugby team this summer that travelled to Newfoundland
and Labrador for a six day tour. The Pine Ridge Secondary School student is hoping to be part of an
exchange program in 2010 or 2011 that would see him travel to England for a semester to attend
school and play rugby.
MOUNTAIN BIKING
Forbes family
puts three
on the podium
PICKERING -- This year’s moun-
tain bike race season finished on a
high note for the Forbes family of
Pickering, with all three cross-country
mountain bike racers earning places
on the podium at the end of this sea-
son’s Ontario Cup Race Series.
The Ontario XC Mountain Bike
Provincial Championship was the sev-
enth and final race of the series and
took place at Kelso Conservation Area
on the site of Glen Eden Ski Centre in
Milton, with a total of 627 racers tak-
ing part.
Emily Forbes, 13, captured pro-
vincial silver with her second-place
finish in the race and ended third over-
all in the race series (Minime U15/F).
Stacey Forbes, 16, took the pro-
vincial bronze medal and finished third
overall in the Ontario Cup race series
(Cadet/Junior -– Expert U19/F).
Norm Forbes, father, was put out
of the provincial race with a flat tire,
but landed on the podium in second
place for the overall series this sea-
son (Beginner 17+/M).
A trio of CoachChris.ca/Ted
Velikonja teammates from Pickering
also did exceptionally well this sea-
son, including Josh Thomas (Cadet-
Expert U17/M), Aaron Thomas (series
bronze winner) and Emily Thomas
(provincial gold and series silver win-
ner).
Ontario Cup riders are catego-
rized based first by age, then by abil-
ity. Points are awarded to all catego-
ries as a measure for riders to com-
pare with the Ontario Cycling Asso-
ciation, recognizing the top three per
category.
FOOTBALL
Quittenton, Naimool
lead Fork Union
VIRGINIA -- A couple of local high
school football players are making their
mark in Virginia.
Richard Quittenton and Nick
Naimool, both of Ajax, were instrumen-
tal in leading Fork Union Military Acad-
emy to a 40-0 pasting of Norfolk Acad-
emy in prep league action.
Quittenton passed for 135 yards
and two touchdowns. One of his touch-
down tosses was for 22 yards, while the
other was 11 yards to Naimool. It was
one of three receptions for 56 yards
Naimool had on the day.
Fork Union built a 20-0 lead at the
half, then expoloded for 20 more points
in the third quarter.

Lopes-Schliep piling up silvers
SLOVAKIA -- Whitby’s Pris-
cilla Lopes-Schliep is finish-
ing her track season in style.
Lopes-Schliep, who won
bronze at the Olympics last
year and silver at the World
Championships this year,
recently posted two more
second place finishes in the
100-metre hurdles.
On Sunday, she finished
behind American Dawn
Harper at the Athletics Bridge
meet in Slovakia, putting up
a time of 12.67 seconds. Two
days earlier, Lopes-Schliep
ran a personal best of 12.49
seconds in wet and chilly
conditions, but was edged
out by Jamaica’s Brigitte Fos-
ter-Hylton.
AJAX -- The Ajax Impact
U10 rep soccer team was
crowned Central East Soc-
cer League Cup Tournament
champions for 2009.
With 27 teams competing
for the coveted CESL Cup
title, Impact defeated all
opponents that came their
way.
In the first round, Impact
romped over Kawartha
Lakes Inferno 10-0. Darryn
Commissiong netted the hat
trick, Maarten Schyvenaars
scored two, Nick Sims, Aus-
tin Werner, Jordan Hardie,
Adrian Martini and Jevon
Nicholson each notched one
apiece. Cameron Palmer
supplied much needed ener-
gy and pin point assists that
led to several goals. Devin
Smith and Dalton Clark split
the shutout.
A couple of weeks later
the Ajax boys blanked North
Scarborough Screaming
Eagles 3-0. A solid defense
corps of Martini, Schyve-
naars, Clark and Claude
Griffith help Smith keep
a clean sheet. Nicholson,
Clark and Commissiong tal-
lied one goal each.
The third round, Impact
dominated Wexford FC 99’s
7-1. Commissiong, who had
been on a tear, recorded
another three goals, Nichol-
son added a pair, while Sims
and Werner volleyed one
goal each. Austin Coelho
supplied excellent ball con-
trol and quality assists that
set up several of the goals.
This led Impact to the
semifinals against a tough
Olympic Flame Hercules
A squad. The boys started
slowly but regained their
form in the second half to
finish with a 5-2 decision.
Commissiong scored two
goals, Hardie, Sims and Mar-
tini rounded out the scoring.
Onto the finals against Ajax
Madrid, also affiliated with
the Ajax Soccer Club. The
opponents scored first on an
early strike into the corner
of the net. This did not deter
Impact, but instead ignit-
ed them which led to crisp
passing and some high qual-
ity finishing that resulted in
a final score of 5-1 for Ajax
Impact. Schyvenaars scored
first for Impact, Commis-
siong tallied two more goals,
while Werner and Nathaniel
Sadler added singles.
The team has also recently
won the CESL North Division
Title in the regular season
going undefeated in league
play with a perfect record of
15-0 while outscoring their
opponents 99-6. With this
victory they are promoted to
the CESL U11 Boys Premier
Division for 2010.
For this calendar year of
2009, Ajax Impact has an
unrivaled record of 66-6-1
with this current squad of
players dating back to indoor
play in the SISL League.
Team Impact consists of
Devin Smith, Adrian Martini,
Nick Sims, Claude Griffith,
Maarten Schyvenaars, Austin
Werner, Dalton Clark, Cam-
eron Palmer, Jordan Hardie,
Darryn Commissiong, Aus-
tin Coelho, Nathaniel Sadler
and Jevon Nicholson. Scott
Hardie coaches the team,
assisted by Darren Commis-
siong and Rui Coelho. Karen

HOCKEY
Attack host Panthers in junior hockey season opener
AJAX -- The puck drops on a new
season of junior hockey tonight in
Ajax.
The Ajax Attack and the Pickering
Panthers will hook up at 8 p.m.
at the Ajax Community Centre in
the season opener for both teams
in the Central Canadian Hockey
League.
Coming off a season record of 25-
24 and fifth place finish, the Attack
made history last season, winning
a playoff round for the first time
in franchise history after knock-
ing out fourth place Bowmanville.
Their run came to an end in the
next round, bowing out to the
eventual league champions from
Kingston in four straight games of
their best-of-seven.
The Panthers shared the same
playoff fate, losing in four games of
a best-of-five series to Kingston in
the opening round, after finishing
eighth with a record of 16-33.
The new league, known as the
Central Canadian Hockey League,
consists of 21 teams, each of
whom until recently was a mem-
ber in the Ontario Junior Hock-
ey League (OJHL). The CCHL
includes Ajax, Bowmanville, Burl-
ington, Cobourg, Dixie, Hamilton,
Lindsay, Markham, Orangeville,
Newmarket, North York , Peterbor-
ough, Pickering, Seguin, Streets-
ville, Stouffville, St. Michael’s,
Toronto Jr. Canadiens, Upper Can-
ada, Wellington and Whitby.
The Panthers will be back in
action on Friday when they visit
Lindsay, with their home open-
er scheduled for Sunday against
Markham at 6:30 p.m. at the
Pickering Recreation Complex.
The Attack will open the sea-
son with three consecutive home
games, including a matinee game
on Sunday at 3 when they host
Bowmanville.

Defence, work ethic
to be key for OHL
club this season
BY BRIAN MCNAIR
bmcnair@durhamregion.com
SUDBURY -- It’s just three games
into the preseason, but Chris
DePiero has seen some encourag-
ing signs from the Oshawa Gener-
als with the real campaign just over
a week away.
DePiero, head coach and gener-
al manager of the Ontario Hockey
League club, has been particularly
pleased with the shot clock so far,
as the Generals are 2-1 in exhibi-
tion play after splitting a pair of
road games last week.
“I’m happy with the way we’re
competing, with three games in
a row where we’ve given up less
than 30 shots,” says DePiero, who
watched his club lose 6-4 in Peter-
borough Thursday before rebound-
ing for a 5-2 win in Sudbury Fri-
day. “Those are little markers that
I think are good for us to do. We’re
trying to stress our work ethic and
keeping the shots down and play-
ing strong in our zone.”
Indeed, that figures to be an area
of strength for the Generals this
season, with a nice mix of veteran
and rookie players on the blue-line
protecting a solid goalie in Michael
Zador.
Zador, who didn’t allow a goal
over the first half of a home-ice win
over Peterborough to open the pre-
season, went the distance Friday,
making 24 saves in the victory over
Sudbury.
And, while he left for the Tampa
Bay Lightning camp on Monday,
Zador should be back soon enough
to carry the load for the Generals
this season.
If Zador and the defence play as
expected, the Generals next task
will be to score enough goals to
win. For that to happen, they will
have to replace the offensive void
left by the departure of John Tava-
res last season and, possibly of
overager Brett Parnham, who’s at
the Ottawa Senators’ rookie camp.
With that in mind, DePiero was
happy to see the likes of Nick Espos-
to and Andy Andreoff scoring last
week. Esposto had three over the
two games, while Andreoff scored
twice in the loss to Peterborough.
“Last year the offence centred on
just a couple guys, and certainly the
expectation level from the coach-
ing staff is to have guys like Nick
Esposto and Andy Andreoff, Jeff
Brown and Christian Thomas, Jeff
Hayes, these guys have to step up
their offensive production,” DePie-
ro said. “We’ll have to spread it
out.”
The Generals finish the pre-
season with a pair of games against
the Kitchener Rangers, in Kitchen-
er Friday and at the General Motors
Centre Sunday at 6:05 p.m.
The regular season starts with
games in Sarnia Sept. 18 and Plym-
outh Sept. 19, followed by the home
opener Friday, Sept. 25 against the
Peterborough Petes.newsdurhamregion.comNews Advertiser • September 9, 200923
