PICKERING -- After experiencing first-hand
the good that can be done when communi-
ties work together, Pickering Pastor Garry
Cuthbert is calling on residents to help ensure
every family in Durham can enjoy a Thanks-
giving dinner.
After being ordained in 2010, Mr. Cuthbert,
who suffers from cerebral palsy, found it more
and more difficult to continue his work of vis-
iting those in the homeless communities of
Toronto and Durham without a wheelchair-
accessible vehicle.
When the community heard of his plight,
several residents and businesses came for-
ward to help him obtain a wheelchair-accessi-
ble minivan, which has allowed him to contin-
ue his practice of bringing his ministry to the
streets, providing food and other supplies to
those in need whenever he can.

consider serving as host
REKA SZEKELY
rszekely@durhamregion.com
PICKERING -- It’s one of the biggest questions related to
nuclear power -- what to do with the waste?
Members of the Pickering nuclear plant’s communi-
ty advisory council got some answers at their September
meeting.
Terry Doran, vice-president of the nuclear waste man-
agement division for Ontario Power Generation, explained
there are three types of waste.
Low-level waste could include paper or clothing contam-
inated with radiation that is handled with minimum pro-
tection, such as wearing gloves.
“It’s generally waste that could be easily handled,” said
Mr. Doran.
Intermediate-level waste includes things such as filters
and resins used in the operation of the plant and would
have to be handled with more protection.
The highest level is the spent fuel bundles from the reac-
tor.
As it stands, low- and intermediate-level wastes are
shipped to a storage facility near Kincardine at the Bruce
Nuclear site. There, the material is stored at an interim
facility with the low-level waste stored in a warehouse and
the intermediate-level waste stored in in-ground contain-
ers at the site. The latter level of waste requires radiation
shielding during transportation, handling and storage.
Though there have been four fender-bender accidents
since 2000, Mr. Doran explained that in 17 years of trans-
porting the low- and intermediate-level waste there has
never been an injury as a result of an accident involving
OPG trucks and no material has ever been released into
the environment. The OPG trucks log about 50,000 kilome-
tres a year.
As a long-term storage solution for the low-level and
intermediate waste, OPG has proposed a deep geological
repository in Kincardine on the Bruce Nuclear site along
the shoreline of Lake Huron.
The area is geologically stable with rock formations that
date back 450 million years.
Mr. Doran explained the proposed storage area would be
680 metres underground. By comparison, the CN Tower
is 550 metres tall. The facility would be 30 hectares above
ground, including a waste rock pile and storm water man-
agement ponds, and 40 hectares underground.
“Basically the DGR is a small surface footprint with a
large footprint underground,” said Mr. Doran.
As it stands, the process to build the DGR has been ongo-
ing since 2004 when the hosting agreement was signed
with Kincardine. The earliest construction could start is
2013.
DGRs already exist in Sweden, Finland and the United
States.
“Deep geological repositories are used internationally,
and have been for a number of years,” said Mr. Doran.
For the most hazardous form of nuclear waste, spent
nuclear fuel, the federal government has created the
Nuclear Waste Management Organization to deal with the
issue. NWMO operates like a non-profit organization and
is funded by nuclear waste owners in Canada, including
OPG.
Peter Simmons, director of municipal and community
engagement for NWMO, said the organization is currently
engaged in a site selection process for its own DGR.
To be considered as a host for the facility, a community
must volunteer.
“We don’t go looking for anyone. It’s really up to them
to say we’re interested in being a potential host,” said Mr.
Simmons.
As it stands, eight communities are interested in learning
more. In Saskatchewan, they are English River First Nation,
Pinehouse and Creighton. In Ontario, Ear Falls, Ignace,
Schreiber, Hornepayne and Wawa have expressed interest.
Some of the communities have experience with hydro
power generation or uranium mining and many are hop-
ing for economic development.
“Some of the communities are talking to us because the
economic opportunities inside those communities are next
to nil,” said Mr. Simmons, who added that NWMO will do
lengthy consultations with the communities so they con-
sider all factors, not just the economic benefits.
The toxicity of nuclear fuel reduces with time, but it
remains a potential hazard indefinitely. The half-life of
uranium is hundreds of millions of years so the fuel will
remain for the foreseeable future.
FAST FACTS
Canada’s spent fuel nuclear waste
- 2 million bundles safely stored currently
- 4 million bundles projected by 2035 from existing nuclear facilities
- 90 per cent currently stored in Ontario and five per cent each in
Quebec and New Brunswick
- Currently stored at nuclear plants in temporary storage
- Nuclear Waste Management Ontario working on creating a deep
geological reserve for more permanent storage
- The toxicity of nuclear fuel reduces over time, but it will take millions
of years

Let's Do Lunch is celebrating its
seventh anniversary this year. The organization
got its start in 2004 after Sue Pitchforth and
Debbie Williams attended a series of women's
lunches in To ronto.They felt that Durham Region
had more than enough business professionals to
support hosting local luncheons.
To gether, the approached CIBC and
BMO, who loved the idea and agreed to support
them in this endeavour.
The first lunch was held at
RoyalAshburn.
"We thought that
if we got 50 people to come
out, the event would be a
success," says Sue. "We
had 130 people come out!"
Even though the
initial idea was just to host
the one luncheon, participants loved it and started
asking when the next lunch was going to be. Let's
Do Lunch was born!
After the third successful lunch, Sue
andDebbiedecidedtoaddacharitablecomponent
to the luncheons. Over the years, the organization
has helped raise funds for a variety of charities,
from small to large, including the Children's Wi sh
Foundation and Sick Kids Hospital.
All of the luncheons now offer
fundraising opportunities for charities that
participate, including silent auctions.
"It's touched us in a way we never
thought possible," says Sue. "We never thought
we would be able to pay it forward so much with
our luncheons."
Each luncheon is an opportunity for
business owners and professionals to network,
connect and learn about each other, both
personally and professionally. Inspiring speakers
offer great tips and advice from their area of
expertise. While the format of the luncheon is
consistent, the theme changes with each charity.
Some luncheons have entertainment such as belly
dancers and once the guests were served lunch by
firefighters! Luncheons are open to both members
and non-members of Let's Do Lunch.
Membership is $99+HST per year

St. Paul’s-on-the-Hill
Community Food Bank
hosts annual food drive
Moya Dillon
mdillon@durhamregion.
PICKERING -- The need for support is obvi-
ous on an early Friday morning in Pickering
as clients line up out the door of the St. Paul’s-
on-the-Hill Community Food Bank.
On Oct. 7 the food bank was handing out
turkey dinners on behalf of Al Dente Restau-
rant and Walker Head Lawyers, but direc-
tor Rae Coulter said the line-up is a normal
occurrence.
“It’s always so busy, we always have lines,”
she explains of the community-run food
bank, which operates 100 per cent on dona-
tions and volunteer hours.
The Food Bank is an outreach program of
St. Paul’s .
“We were just supposed to be here a short
time, just to get over the hump,” Ms. Coulter
said of the food bank, which has now been
operating almost 20 years and serves Ajax
and Pickering residents.
“But the need never went away, we had a
big increase in numbers last year. And now
we’re getting to that point where the food
starts dwindling down, summer is always a
slow time for us. We rely on the Thanksgiving
food drive to get us into next year.”
The food bank is particularly in need of sta-
ples such as sugar, tea, coffee, cereal, juice
boxes and snacks for school. Also, monetary
donations, in the form of cash or gift cards,
are always appreciated and go towards pay-
ing overhead such as rent and purchasing
food.
“We buy things like milk and eggs, which a
lot of food banks don’t do,” Ms. Coulter said,
showing off a new industrial fridge that was
purchased with donations from a charity golf
tournament and now holds dairy products
for distribution to clients.
“These food drives are really important,”
she said, pointing to the bustling group of vol-
unteers unloading food, packing boxes, bag-
ging dinners and running food out to clients.
“You see them all happy and smiling over
there now, but it really upsets them when
there’s nothing on the shelves. A lot of times
when we’re running short on something, the
volunteers will bring it in themselves.”
Food and monetary donations can be
dropped off at grocery stores throughout
Pickering as well as local fire halls. Ms. Coulter
stresses that every donation, no matter how
small, is appreciated.
“We want to thank everyone, we have such
a generous community,” she said.
“They just give all the time, we are a very for-
tunate area. And our clients really do appreci-
ate it. It’s not an easy thing to come to a food
bank but they know no one is criticizing them
here.”

Celebration, performance
and trade show kick off
new solar project
Moya Dillon
mdillon@durhamregion.com
PICKERING -- Members of the public are
invited to help Devi Mandir Temple cele-
brate its newest green initiative during cel-
ebrations to unveil a new solar panel.
On Wednesday, Oct. 12 the temple will
host a celebration featuring performances
from the temple’s youth, refreshments and
a trade show. The temple’s new 10-kilowatt
PV solar panel will also be on display. The
installation was built on the temple’s roof
thanks to a grant from the Ontario Trillium
Foundation and will be plugged into the
grid on Wednesday.
“This is a big thing for our faith communi-
ty,” said Cecil Ramnauth, secretary for Devi
Mandir.
“Our scripture teaches us to be mindful
of the earth and to offer worship to Moth-
er Earth. We feel like a lot is happening in
terms of pollution and we feel we have the
power to do something about it by mobiliz-
ing our youth and educating our congrega-
tion. In our community, because we have
the numbers, we believe we can make a dif-
ference.”
In order to further the education compo-
nent of the temple’s green initiatives the
event will also feature a trade show with
green-energy products such as solar pan-
els, green lighting and other green prod-
ucts.
“We are really excited about this,” Mr.
Ramnauth said of the event. “This is part of
our culture and our beliefs.”
On Oct. 12 from 6 to 10 p.m. the public
is invited to come to the temple for a tour
of the solar installation as well as music,
refreshments and dance performances. In
addition, a green-focused information net-
working trade show will be held at the tem-
ple throughout the evening.

Resident opposed to
leash-free park fence
To the editor:
I was quite surprised to discover that the
Town is considering building a fence in the
leash-free area for dogs.
As a taxpayer, I do not support any of our
tax dollars being spent on such a fence. If
your dog is a “car chaser” then your dog
should not be at the Westney Road leash-
free park.
I am assuming this is not a problem at the
Greenwood Conservation Area, so if dog
owners are worried about the road, then
they should just use Greenwood. I am sure
there are better uses for our tax dollars.

Lamenting loss
of Baby Depot
To the editor:
Re: ‘Whitby pediatrician shuts down
breastfeeding clinic after complaint’, news,
durhamregion.com, Oct. 1, 2011.
My wife and I have been members of the
Mom and Baby Depot since our daughter
was born in 2007. We have since had a son
(10 weeks premature) born in 2009.
The reason we had decided to become
members and ‘pay’ for better health care
than was being provided from our family
doctor, or any family doctor available to
us, was because we wanted the best for our
children.
This has paid for itself over the years, as
we have had caring, in-depth childcare
advice, and services not provided by our, or
any, family doctor.
When you have an appointment with the
Depot you show up a few minutes before
and there is no wait, no room full of people
waiting for their 15 minutes with a doctor
who is overworked and doesn’t know your
child from the next.
You get proper, patient-specific advice
that is informative and directed, which
is the best way to address the child’s con-
cerns.
We chose to do this because it was avail-
able. We were extremely happy with our
choice, but now the College of Physicians
has shut down Dr. Dockrill’s services to
which we had become accustomed.
Since her clinic has been shut down, we
have taken our son to the emergency ward
on two separate occasions. Once to Lak-
eridge and once (in ambulance because of
a seizure) to Ajax.
On both occasions we ended up walking
out of the hospital after numerous hours in
the waiting room with our son.
The most recent time was this past sum-
mer, at Ajax hospital, where, after being
taken by ambulance to the emergency, we
waited over three hours with our son, after
the twisted ankles and sore knees went
before us.
This is why we paid for our children’s
health care; we were happy and the ser-
vices provided were not offered anywhere
else.
It is a shame that the clinic had to shut its
doors, and the well being of so many chil-
dren in Durham is poorer because of it.

Brandon McCormack,

Downtown carnival
must return to Whitby
To the editor:
Re: Letters calling for the return of the
County Town Carnival to Whitby’s down-
town.
I agree with other readers; please bring
back the County Town Carnival with the
Friday night Mardi Gras parade with floats
and the throwing of beads.
It was exciting for all -- young and old.
The Heritage Day downtown was great
with the food festivals and vendors, the
music and all.
I know the planning and work involved
takes a great number of volunteers to make
these events happen. Most towns and cit-
ies have events so Whitby needs its own
special event.

& Liberals must work with other parties to achieve good governance
Most of the signs have been removed
from local boulevards, newly elected MPPs
are preparing to start new terms of gov-
ernment, and the provincial Liberals will
attempt to govern with Premier Dalton
McGuinty’s ‘major minority’.
And while it’s true that Premier McGuinty
is just one seat shy of the coveted majority
he sought, miserable voter turnout com-
bined with a substantial reduction in seats
for the Liberals creates a picture much less
certain than the one painted by the Premier
the day after last week’s provincial election.
In fact, Liberal-held seats were reduced
to 53 from 70 at dissolution, while Tim
Hudak’s Progressive Conservatives picked
up 12, to 37 from 25 on election night, and
Andrea Horwath’s NDP party gained seven,
to 17 from 10.
Premier McGuinty might want to tone
down the talk of a ‘strong mandate’ hand-
ed to the Liberals by Ontario and Durham
Region voters and instead start focusing on
ways and means to make this minority gov-
ernment one that works for Ontarians and
with the opposition parties. It’s true that
the Liberals and NDP may find common
ground on some files and will engage in
some horse trading as a consequence. But
the Conservative gains and sensible mes-
sage of fiscal responsibility and reduced
taxation cannot be dismissed out of hand.
To that end, we encourage the Liberals to
explore with the Conservatives measures
that a great many Ontarians voted for on
Oct. 6.
In Durham Region, for instance, in tra-
ditionally held PC ridings, candidates this
time around generally saw their vote totals
increase, even as overall voter turnout
across the province was reduced to a dis-
mal 49.2 per cent. Whitby-Oshawa MPP
Christine Elliott and Durham Riding’s John
O’Toole both saw their share of the vote
increase. Smaller increases were seen in
other Durham ridings, but were still up,
even when the candidate placed second.
If Premier McGuinty is looking to such
numbers for guidance going forward, sure-
ly he’ll have to contend with them all and
take the lead and make decisions accord-
ingly.
Time will tell if this is a minority govern-
ment that manages to get things done and
avoid the sort of gridlock that occurred in
Ottawa in recent years with Stephen Harp-
er’s Conservatives. The Premier must be
held to account for the success or failure of
this government, but a sombre responsibil-
ity falls to the other leaders, Mr. Hudak and
Ms. Horwath, to lead their membership
in the provincial legislature with a view to
what’s best for Ontarians and not partisan
gain.
Thanksgiving snuck up on me again this
year.
It always does.
Part of it has to do with the fact that
Thanksgiving seems to be either wanted
by the law or in the Witness Protection
program.
The date maddeningly shifts around
every year and nobody ever seems to know
exactly where it’s located.
The other problem is that both of my
son’s birthdays bracket either side of the
Thanksgiving holiday and so my mind,
ordinarily preoccupied enough with efflu-
via like where babies come from and why
do I have nipples, is now crammed to
the point of being overwhelmed with gift
ideas, dates of birth and party schedules.
Needless to say, Thanksgiving, if we’re
not careful, can end up getting crammed
in as a bit of an afterthought. And that’s
unfortunate because I think it’s a very
important occasion. Just as important as
Christmas, Hanukkah or Easter and miles
ahead of Labour Day.
For what could possibly be more vital to
our well-being than taking a little time to
count our blessings and put ourselves in
a state of genuine appreciation for all that
we have?
A day or two to hit the reset on our ‘per-
spective’ buttons.
Let’s face it, most of us spend far more
time bemoaning the state of our lives and
the world in general than in delighting in
what is wonderful about our existence. For
some goofy reason we seem to be hard-
wired to bitch.
Just try going through a day not saying
anything negative or joining in on a belly-
ache session.
People will think you’ve joined a cult or
taken a vow of silence.
It would be funny except that this stuff
is noxious. It’s like putting bad gas into a
Ferrari engine.
Garbage in, garbage out. Over a pro-
longed period things can really get
gummed up to the point where you for-
get what ‘high performance’ used to feel
like. You’re walking through paradise but
you’re staring at your shoes.
So a weekend to give thanks...to re-align
and remember...to lift our gaze off of the
dog turds in our life and put it back, if even
for a little while, on that which is exqui-
site, is a very good idea. A B-12 shot for the
soul.
God knows I could use it. No doubt like
many of you, I have sadness and worry
and stress in my life. And there are days
and situations where I wonder how things
got so impossibly far off the rails. And
how, in God’s name, can it all be made
right again? My eyes firmly planted on my
shoes again.
Time with family and friends. Breaking
bread with those you love and whose love
you cherish.
Talking, laughing, looking around the
table and smiling at your good fortune
is the best remedy I can think of for days
such as those. Indeed it is the only reme-
dy.
And the only way to ensure we will have
more to be grateful for in the future, is to
be aware of what treasure we currently
possess.
Wouldn’t it be nice if every weekend
were, in its way, a Thanksgiving weekend?

BEHIND THE LENS
In photography, lighting is
everything. Change the light-
ing and you change the mood.
I have always appreciated the
subtle effects of available light
in darker situations. The tech-
nology of cameras are becom-
ing more capable of shooting in
dark situations without suffer-
ing from graininess. In this pho-
tograph, I took a frame of a col-
league while we were on assign-
ment, shooting a rowing club
during the pre-dawn hours. Her
face is illuminated by the LCD of
her camera which was captured
subtly. The left hand side of the
frame was not altered. This is
how the camera saw the scene.
LETTER TO THE EDITOR
Coyote sightings
provoke fear
To the editor:
I was stopped by a motorist while walking
my small dog in the spring.
He rather excitedly told me he had just
seen a litter of coyote cubs in the Gibb/
Burns street vicinity. Fearing the parents
of the cubs could be nearby, the man told
me to watch my dog.
The rest of our walk was apprehensive to
say the least being of small stature myself
and having seen a large animal one eve-
ning last winter that caused me to lift my
dog and run.
The very next week, a woman on Lim-
erick Street reported seeing another lit-
ter of cubs in the nearby forest area of her
home.
Since then I’ve heard of more sightings of
coyote cubs and adults from people on my
route. One woman apparently had her dog
snatched and carried off while walking it.
Neighbours with small children and pets
have been shocked to find coyotes in their
fenced backyards and are afraid to let their
children out on their own property. My
husband saw a young coyote one night last
week; our neighbour saw one last night in
front of his house.
Pets have disappeared, entrails of small
animals are seen strewn in parks and
trails, people have seen coyotes wander-
ing down the sidewalk. It seems the coyote
population is growing and getting a little
too close for comfort for the residents of
this neighbourhood.
Calls to local wildlife authorities have
informed residents that the area is the nat-
ural habitat of these animals and there is
nothing they can do. When I called after
having now seen three large ones on sev-
eral occasions, I was told to wear a whistle.
I was told coyotes don’t generally attack
people, though I think any animal that is
hungry enough could -- and would. This
may have been their natural habitat at
one time but now it is a residential neigh-
bourhood of taxpaying citizens becoming
increasingly anxious.
These animals need to be rounded up
and relocated to less populated areas.
Heaven forbid, it won’t have to take a trag-
edy for the authorities to take action.

“It’s devastating what’s out there, there’s
a big need and things are changing dras-
tically,” Mr. Cuthbert said of the amount
of poverty he sees through his work with
the non-denominational Holy Spirit
Ministries Food Basket.
“I want people to know that people do
listen, they do help, just like they helped
me with the van.”
Mr. Cuthbert founded the Food Basket
in 2008 to help people who “fall through
the cracks”.
“So many people don’t want to go
through agencies,” he explained.
“The thing is the agencies that are cur-
rently in place are overloaded and often
one agency may not know what anoth-
er agency is doing and so people fall
through the cracks. There are a lot of
cracks that are not being filled, so that’s
where I come in, to fill in the gaps.”
Mr. Cuthbert collects donations of food
and good used clothing, which he then
hands out to people in need, either to
those he meets doing work at street level
or through referrals from local churches
and organizations.
“This is not just about food,” he
explained of his work.
“I also make myself available if people
just want to talk, whatever they need. In
my calling I’ve discovered that if peo-
ple are hungry they’re not very tenta-
tive, they’ll be much more willing to seek
help.”
Mr. Cuthbert is currently partnering
with the Montessori Learning Centre of
Pickering on a Thanksgiving Food Drive.
Items can be dropped off at the school,
401 Kingston Rd., in Pickering, through
Thursday, Oct. 6.
Needed items include canned meats,
canned fruits and vegetables, peanut
butter, canned and boxed meals, canned
or dried beans, pasta, rice and cereal.
Mr. Cuthbert is also hoping to start a
new tradition this year with a communi-
ty Christmas dinner, which is still in the
planning stages.
Although he is currently running the
Holy Spirit Ministries Food Basket out of
his Whites Road home, Mr. Cuthbert said
he hopes to find a dedicated facility for
the charity this year, as well as complet-
ing the organization’s transition to a reg-
istered charitable organization, which
would allow him to give tax receipts.
“A lot of people don’t want to talk
about it, they don’t want to know what’s
going on right in their own communi-
ties,” Mr. Cuthbert said, citing a recent
study by the Community Development
Council Durham that found as many as
one in six Durham residents are living
in poverty.
“There is a need for this. People need
to realize what is happening and know
that we can make a difference.”

Man turns himself in
three days
after incident
PICKERING -- A suspect in Tuesday’s hit
and run in Pickering has turned himself
in, police say.
Durham Regional Police arrested a
man in connection with a failure to
remain after a Pickering teen was hit by
a car on Oct. 4.
The 18-year-old victim had been walk-
ing with a friend near Broadview Street
and Liverpool Road South in Pickering
just after 3 a.m. He was hit after stepping
off the curb to hail a cab, and the driver
did not stop, police say.
The suspect turned himself in with his
lawyer on Oct. 7, and was arrested and
held for a bail hearing.
Scott Avery, 23, of Fawndale Road in
Pickering, is charged with numerous
offences, including impaired driving,
dangerous driving causing bodily harm
and fail to remain.
The victim remains in intensive care in
hospital and is recovering from multiple
serious injuries.

Innovation for family:
Did you know that Quest’s available Advanced Climate Control System helps clean the air it cools.
This first in its class system filters the cabin air and even helps reduce bothersome allergens.

after Pickering Markets robbery
PICKERING -- Police are looking for a male suspect
after two necklaces were stolen off a customer’s neck at
The Pickering Markets on Sunday.
At around 4:30 p.m. on Oct. 9, two suspects took part
in a robbery where two gold necklaces were grabbed
off of a customer’s neck at the shopping markets, locat-
ed on Bayly Street and Squires Beach Road, Durham police say.
The victim and an employee chased the suspects on foot and
directed police to the area in which they fled, said Inspector Steve
Ross.
“The officers were able to set up a perimeter,” he said.
The canine unit was called in and an officer found a sweaty,
out-of-breath teenager hiding nearby, said the inspector.
The boy, 17, of Toronto, was arrested for robbery and cannot be
identified under the Youth Criminal Justice Act.
The police were unable to retrieve the jewelry, and the victim
suffered minor injuries to his neck.
Police are looking for another black male suspect. Anyone with
information can call Detective Jeff Friend at 1-800-579-1520 ext.
2511.

Soccer
Ajax Strikers are national champs
U18 team beats
Quebec 3-2 in final
FREDERICTON, NB -- The Ajax
Strikers U18 soccer team are the
best in the country.
The Strikers won the national
championship over the Thanks-
giving weekend, going unde-
feated in five games, culminating
with a narrow 3-2 decision over
St. Hubert of Quebec in the gold-
medal game on Monday.
St. Hubert actually rallied from
a 1-0 halftime deficit to take a 2-1
lead in the second half, but the
Strikers got goals from LeShaun
Young, and a second of the game
by Shawn-Claud Lawson to pull
out the win.
The Strikers entered the final
as the top seed in their pool after
going 3-0-1, edging SWU Pre-
miers of Alberta on goal differ-
ential after the teams finished in
a tie for first place. The Strikers
were way ahead in the tie break-
er, scoring 20 goals and allowing
just one in pool play.
St. Hubert were tops in their
pool with a 2-0-2 record.
The tournament opened
Wednesday with a 7-1 win over
Mount Pearl, NL, as Peter Boylan
scored twice for the Strikers. The
following day the Strikers battled
to a scoreless draw with the SWU
Premiers, but bounced back
with a resounding 9-0 win over
Saskatchewan Unidad on the
strength of four goals by Jordan
Dover on Friday. They closed out
the round robin on Sunday by
blanking Nova Scotia 4-0.

Jenn Wakefield
selected to
represent Canada
Pickering resident
off to Sweden for
4 Nations cup
PICKERING -- Jenn Wakefield
will be wearing Canada’s colours
at this year’s 4 Nations Cup from
Nov. 9-14 in Sweden.
Wakefield, of Pickering, was one
of 23 players selected to the roster
for a Canadian team that will be
looking to defend its gold medal
performance of a year ago.
The 2011 4 Nations Cup will
bring together the top four wom-
en’s hockey countries in the
world -- Canada, Finland, Swe-
den and the United States –- for
the 16th annual international
tournament. Canada has won
the gold medal at the 3 Nations
Cup/4 Nations Cup a total of 12
times, including last Novem-
ber at the 2010 4 Nations Cup in
St. John’s and Clarenville, New-
foundland, and has claimed sil-
ver three times.
Wakefield, a senior scholar-
ship athlete at Boston Universi-
ty, is coming off a stellar junior
season. The Dunbarton gradu-
ate led her team to the champi-
onship game of the Frozen Four
tournament last season, and was
nominated for the Patty Kazmai-
er Award, presented to the top
women’s player in NCAA hockey.
She led the team in scoring with
32-22-54 point totals in 34 games.
Her goals (32) and points (54) set
school records.
In this, her final season of eligi-
bility, she has been named cap-
tain.
She has picked up where she left
off, honored by Hockey East after
being named Player of the Week.
Wakefield notched two goals and
added an assist to help lead Bos-
ton University to a 4-1 win over
North Dakota. Her second-peri-
od assist was the 150th point of
her career. Both her goals came
on special teams, as she tallied
a power-play goal in the second
period before she potted a short-
handed goal in the third period.
The Terriers are ranked fourth
in the country.

Generals avoid sinking into cellar

bmcnair@durhamregion.com
OSHAWA -- The Oshawa
Generals were 40 seconds
away Monday from having
an unthinkably bad start to
the Ontario Hockey League
season.
The fact that they avoided
sinking into the East Divi-
sion basement by pulling out
a 4-3 overtime win over the
Kingston Frontenacs may
well be the turning point
they were looking for in what
is still a season that has fallen
well short of expectations so
far.
Nicklas Jensen tied the
game with a power-play goal
in the final minute of regu-
lation and J.P. Labardo was
credited with the winner,
his second of the game, in
the first minute of overtime,
as the Generals earned their
first home win of the season
before a small Thanksgiv-
ing Day crowd of 3,043 at the
GM Centre.
Labardo was in front of
Kingston goalie Igor Bobk-
ov when Colin Suellentrop’s
point shot bounced around
and found the back of the
net for the winner 48 sec-
onds into OT.
It was credited to Labar-
do, although it appeared the
puck may have rebounded in
off a Kingston defenceman.
Regardless, it sparked a
huge celebration for the
Generals, who improved to
3-4-0-1 overall, leaving them
in seventh place in the East-
ern Conference.
“It counts, it counts. We
needed that,” said a relieved
coach, Chris DePiero, after
the game. “To be honest with
you, no, I don’t (care who
scored the goal) at this stage.
I’m just happy it went over
the line.
“You hope that this is one
of those kick-in-the-pants
kind of things,” he contin-
ued. “You can never real-
ly tell or predict if it’s one of
those watershed moments.
You don’t know. I just think
for us, we have to play better
than we did today.”
Indeed, the Generals were
not expected to be struggling
for wins against the likes of
the Frontenacs, who dropped
to 1-6-1-1, nor for that matter
teams like the Belleville Bulls
(4-3-0-0), another division
rival to whom the Generals
have lost to twice already.
Although they have dealt
with having several players
away at pro camps and two
lengthy suspensions already
this season, now that play-
ers such as captain Boone
Jenner, Christian Thom-
as, Lucas Lessio and Nick-
las Jensen have all returned
and settled back in, the team
should have plenty enough
firepower to get the job
done.
Jensen, who stayed away
the longest and earned a
contract from the Vancouver
Canucks, admitted afterward
to both a sense of relief at the
goal he scored, and disap-
pointment with the way the
team has played to date.
“I think we’re a lot bet-
ter team, so we should have
won in regulation time, but
yeah, it was really nice to get
that goal,” said Jensen, who
admitted it gave him goose
bumps. “We’ve had a cou-
ple of tough games here with
some losses, so it was good
getting a win again.”
The Generals were coming
off a rough road trip, having
lost 5-2 in Sarnia Friday and
5-4 in a shootout in Windsor
Saturday.
Despite the slow start,
Jensen said he still expects
big things from the team.
“I’m definitely not worried
about the team,” he said. “I
think we have the best team
in the league. We’re like a big
family in there and we’re def-
initely not going to fall apart.
We’re definitely going to get
on a roll again.”
generally Speaking
Although Chris DePiero said
there had been no change
to the status of his potential
overage players as of Mon-
day, the fact that Pickering’s
Andy Andreoff was at the
game that day has to be a
good sign for the Generals.
Andreoff, who was drafted
in the third round by the Los
Angeles Kings after a break-
through 2010-11 season in
Oshawa, has yet to sign a pro
contract and did not start the
season with the AHL’s Man-
chester Monarchs as was
thought possible ... The Gen-
erals are in Mississauga (7-1-
0-0) Friday and at home to
both Ottawa (5-1-1-0) Sat-
urday at 7:05 p.m. and Peter-
borough (4-1-1-1) Sunday at
6:05 p.m.

Pickering Panthers give
up double digits in loss
Fall 10-6
in kingston
KINGSTON -- In a wild
shootout in Kingston over
the Thanksgiving weekend,
the Pickering Panthers just
didn’t have enough ammu-
nition.
After giving up a pair
of power play goals and
another shorthanded in
just over five minutes to
start the game, the Panthers
managed to rally back on a
couple of occasions, trail-
ing 6-5 and 7-6 at different
points in the third period,
only to fall 10-6 in the end.
Specialty teams, particu-
larly the power plays, con-
tributed to the 16-goal out-
burst the teams combined
for on the afternoon. Both
teams were better than
50 per cent with the man
advantage, with the Pan-
thers scoring on four of
their seven opportunities,
and Kingston going five for
nine.
Tanner Bull scored twice
for the Panthers, who trailed
4-2 after the first period and
5-3 through two. When Sean
Levac closed the margin to
7-6 with just 9:59 remain-
ing in the game, it set the
stage for a wild finish. But
it was Kingston who man-
aged to finish strong with
three unanswered goals in
just under six minutes.
Matt Galati, Mike Sicil-
lia and Taylor Pryce had
the other goals for the Pan-
thers.
The Panthers used both
goaltenders in an attempt
to stop Kingston, as Adam
Stein was pulled after
allowing the fourth goal
midway through the first
period in favour of Denny
Dubblestyne, who stopped
38 of the 44 shots he faced.
The Panthers were outshot
48-19, according to point-
streak.com.
The Panthers have also
lost the services of defence-
man Mark Ramkema,
who was suspended for
three games by the league
after receiving an instiga-
tor, aggressor and fighting
major in the second peri-
od.
The loss dropped the
Panthers to last place in the
seven-team South Division
of the Ontario Junior Hock-
ey League with a record of
2-7-1, and have just one win
in their past seven games.
After a relatively light
schedule with just two
games over a 14-day span,
the Panthers will be busy
this weekend with three
games in four days. It kicks
off with a home game on
Friday against St. Michael’s
at 7:30 p.m., continues Sat-
urday at the Showcase
Weekend in Cobourg with
an 11 a.m. game against
Wellington, and concludes
Monday in Vaughan.
