It’s alleged the multi-faceted scheme occurred over six years and saw the bank defrauded of more than $921,000, Toronto police said. The arrest was announced Tues- day, Sept. 13. Police said a manager in the Trade Sup- port Group for TD Securities fraudulently obtained funds through improper requests for bank drafts, and set up a shell company, MRS Consulting Ltd., that invoiced the bank for non-existent services. The manager also defrauded the bank by submitting false expense claims, police said. Duane Sahadeo, 30, of Pickering, is charged with fraud over $5,000 and uttering a forged document. OPP lays closeto 800 distracted driving charges during long weekend DURHAM -- Nearly 800 charges were laid during a long weekend crackdown on distracted drivers, according to the Ontario Provincial Police. The charges were laid during a busy Labour Day weekend during which offi- cers also investigated 12 highway fatali- ties. The past long weekend was the dead- liest Labour Day weekend on OPP- patrolled highways in 20 years, the ser- vice said. The distracted driving crackdown was announced prior to the long weekend. OPP announced distracted driving-relat- ed deaths are outpacing fatalities linked to impaired driving two to one so far this year. In spite of the information blitz, hun- dreds of such charges were laid against drivers who “jeopardized the safety” of others on the roadways, OPP said. The total number of distracted driving charges laid to date in 2016 is in excess of 8,800, OPP said. du r h a m r e g i o n . c o m Ne w s A d v e r t i s e r • Se p t e m b e r 1 5 , 2 0 1 6 4 P SERVICE CENTER HOURS MON.-FRI. 7:30AM-8:00PM • SAt. 7:30-6:00 • SuN. 9:00-6:00 905-686-2309 CASTROL OIL NOw AvAILAbLe AT CANADIAN TIRe STOReS ACROSS CANADA Most vehicles Up to 5L of oil (assorted grades).

Ward 3 City Councillor Rick Johnson asked if O’Connell had heard what’s hap- pening with the proposed Pickering airport. O’Connell stated her opposition, but said a decision hasn’t been made yet, and an aviation study, which the government has recently hired consultants to proceed with, should take another two years to complete. Mayor Dave Ryan asked the MP to help bring jobs to the municipality, adding Pickering has great schools, parks and more, “but we need those jobs. There is no question.” O’Connell said providing good jobs is a major focus of the government. “Green jobs I think are going to be incred- ibly important to our country and certainly here in Pickering and Durham Region,” she said. Mayor Ryan said there is plenty of room for high-quality jobs on the employment lands along Hwy. 407 and it’s important that there is Internet access in these areas. “I really see that these thing do go hand- in-hand,” agreed O’Connell. “We can’t have an innovative agenda, we can’t have inno- vative companies if they can’t get Internet access.” O’Connell said the federal government announced early this year it would invest in Internet in rural areas. But the line of where ‘rural’ ends and ‘urban’ begins is difficult to draw. “Although we say ‘rural Internet’ I know it’s not something that just affects north Pickering and Uxbridge in my riding but it’s something that affects urban Pickering as well,” she said. She said infrastructure needs updating, and access to broadband is equally impor- tant. She also spoke about the Canada 150 Fund, and encouraged groups looking to plan special events for Canada’s 150th birthday to apply.

Province doesn’t allow Region to ask for such information BY KEITH GILLIGAN kgilligan@durhamregion.com DURHAM -- The Region wants the criminal history of new residents moving into homes for the aged. However, the Ministry of Health and Long- Term Care doesn’t allow home operators to collect such information. Durham operates four homes for the aged. During a meeting of Regional Council’s committee of the whole on Sept. 7, coun- cillors voted 19-7 to seek permission from the ministry to ask for a criminal history for incoming residents. Regional council gave its approval Wednesday. Scugog Councillor Bobbie Drew sug- gested seeking a criminal history check of potential new residents. She said it wasn’t to deny a person residency, but to inform staff so they know who they are dealing with. Dr. Hugh Drouin, the commissioner of social services, noted the Long Term Care Act doesn’t allow a home operator to seek a criminal history of residents. “If the Province changes the act, they will include guidelines,” he added. Most incidents of violence in homes are minor in nature, such as slapping, pushing, punching and face-to-face threats, Drouin said “This motion gives us another tool in our basket,” Drouin noted. “The majority of calls now are minor in nature and can be resolved by staff.” Any incident has to be reported to the Province, he added. Oshawa Councillor Amy McQuaid-Eng- land didn’t support the change, saying, “It’s a slippery slope when we ask for a crimi- nal history of residents. The majority of incidents are minor. We’re going down the wrong path.” Pickering Councillor Bill McLean also didn’t support it, saying, “The procedure we have in place seems to be good. Criminal checks won’t solve anything.” Drouin said, “If someone was violent because of dementia, we can get financial support from the ministry to work one-on- one with the patient.” Oshawa Councillor Bob Chapman did support the change. “This is an issue to protect our staff. It doesn’t mean they won’t get admitted, but they may need special attention,” Coun. Chapman said. Regional Chairman Roger Anderson sup- ported the amendment, noting, “It doesn’t stop them from living in our facilities. It allows us to have the right staff in that facil- ity. “It’s not saying to people ‘you can’t live here.’ It’s saying to staff ‘here’s what we know,’” he said. Oshawa Councillor Nancy Diamond said a resident in a home in Oshawa was sexu- ally assaulted by another resident who had a history of such attacks. “Staff wasn’t allowed to know in advance.” Oshawa Mayor John Henry said, “It’s not about criminal history. It’s about protecting people. This is just common sense.” Page 8 - Today’s editorial Durham wants criminal history of residents at seniors’ homes Metroland file photo DURHAM -- Durham Regional Chairman Roger Anderson supported an amendment to seek permission from the Province to ask for a criminal history for incoming resi- dents of the Region’s four homes for the aged.

The end of summer, the days beginning to get noticeably shorter, the beginning of another school year. That last one is a biggie. Especially if you happen to be either a kid, a parent or, God help you, an educator. If you live with or know well some- one who works in the classroom, you can actually see them begin to morph into a different person over the last week or so. The pupils dilate, the fast twitch muscles begin to fire more often, the fight or flight reflex awakens. They are readying themselves, girding their loins, to re-enter the classroom. It’s been almost 30 years since I last taught and I can still, vividly, remem- ber the transformation in those final days of August. I think it must be akin to what soldiers feel just prior to going into battle. It’s part excitement, part terror, part bafflement that a summer could have gone by so quickly. And, of course, there’s an unspoken fear that perhaps this will be the year that does it. The one that breaks you. The year that finally sends you over the top and finds you running naked through the office, clutching a forbidden peanut butter sandwich in one hand and a broken piece of chalk in the other. Teaching is scary stuff. Anything important always is. And there is nothing more important than the shaping of young lives. Which, by the way, very often has nothing whatsoever to do with the curriculum, and everything to do with the teacher. Very few of us could tell you who intro- duced us to long division, the burning of York or the Periodic Table, but we can instantly remember the individual who saw the gold in us, who guided us towards where we needed to go, who acknowledged the person in us, who listened to us, respected us and made us feel special. That’s what good teach- ers do. Good teachers are lifelines. They are sometimes all a drowning kid has to hang onto. A teacher’s kind word, a small snatch of praise, the littlest, most offhand thing, may be the only posi- tive in some kid’s week, the difference between buoying a child up towards the light or watching him slip beneath the surface. What could possibly be more impor- tant than that? That’s a very high bar indeed. Is it any wonder that this time of year is so daunting to so many? Thank you, to everyone working with our chil- dren, for all that you do. I wish all of you a wonderful year. -- Durham resident Neil Crone, actor, comic, writer, saves some of his best lines for this column neil Crone Enter Laughing Durham Region wants information on potential residents How long should you pay for a mistake? A year, five years, 10 years... decades? Decades would be the answer when it comes to seniors’ housing in Durham Region. The Region of Durham wants to know the criminal background of any person applying to live in the homes for the aged. Yes, they want to know if an octogenar- ian has a criminal past. It’s not to prevent them living in the facilities, rather the social services department just wants to know who they are dealing with in their buildings. During a meeting of Regional Coun- cil’s committee of the whole on Sept. 7, councillors voted 19-7 to seek permission from the Ministry of Health and Long- Term Care to ask for a criminal history for incoming residents. It sounds good when people like Scu- gog councillor Bobbie Drew say the crim- inal history checks would help out the staff. Regional Chairman Roger Anderson calls it an information gathering tool so that staff will know ahead of time what they are dealing while performing their work duties. Anderson also said it isn’t to prevent people from living in the facilities, but human nature suggests the screening process would create another barrier for people trying to access this much sought after housing option. Social Services commissioner Dr. Hugh Drouin notes it will give staff another tool in the basket. He says the checks will help them when dealing with minor inci- dents, which tend to be pushing, slap- ping, punching and face-to-face confron- tations. Any incident is reported to the Province. We agree with Oshawa Councillor Amy McQuaid-England when she calls this a slippery slope and that Durham is ‘going down the wrong path’ with this idea. If a patient is violent because of demen- tia, the Region is able to receive financial support from the ministry to work one- on-one with the patient. This ministry is the same one that doesn’t allow home operators to collect such information. Oshawa Mayor John Henry comment- ed that it’s not about criminal history and that it is about protecting people. He went as far as to call it common sense. Does it make sense for an 80-year-old woman who was involved in a fight years ago to have that following her around the halls of a seniors home? Even hardened criminals eventually receive parole, but not in Durham and not if you’re a senior: Once a criminal, always a criminal. Criminal reference checks for seniors are a bad idea Agree? Disagree?

Now 38 and a four-year volunteer at the Dur- ham Rape Crisis Centre (DRCC), she recently spoke about her experience as a 15-year-old in anticipation of the release of a new public service video by DRCC called #webelieveyou. “I was raped by a boyfriend of mine who I had initially discussed having sex with, when it came time I backed out and said no and he forced himself on me,” explains Skelly. She was so shocked about what happened, almost couldn’t believe it, that she stayed with him for three more months but the feeling that something was terrible persisted. After they broke up, it was the boyfriend that told people he expected Skelly to falsely accuse him of rape and she said she wasn’t believed. “He told people I was going to lie, so he was the one who actually exposed it and when I finally said what he did people were apt to not believe,” she explains. It was devastating. “For me, I find the rape is secondary towards the feelings I have towards the people that didn’t believe me, because the people that didn’t believe were my good friends at the time so it’s almost like you’re revictimized,” she explains. Skelly ultimately did not go to the police, but she did contact the Durham Rape Crisis Cen- tre. Years later she would go on to volunteer with the group, answering phones and sitting on the organization’s fundraising committee. Now, when she talks to victims, she makes sure they understand she believes them. “It’s just a sense of reassurance that we do believe them and know that they can call us at the centre so they know regardless of their story, regardless of who believed them in the past,” she said. Recently the issue of sexual assault has made headlines through high profile cases like the Jian Ghomeshi case where the women alleging sexual assault were heavily scruti- nized in the court of public opinion in addi- tion to the legal courts. Ghomeshi was acquit- ted of charges. “When we picked to do this PSA it real- ly resonated with me because it was such a mirror image of my story, because when it was exposed that I was raped people were so quick to judge,” said Skelly, pointing out peo- ple couldn’t understand why a sexual assault victim would continue a relationship with an abuser. But that’s exactly what happened to her. “One of the things that really came out of all of these trials is this notion that women are making things up,” said Lynn Cohen, coun- sellor and public education coordinator at DRCC. “They’re lying, that they’re trying to get back at someone and a real lack of under- standing of why women may stay in a relation- ship or not recognize they’ve been assaulted.” The video, which launches on Thursday at DRCC’s 24th annual Take Back the Night rally in Oshawa, starts off with women talking about lighthearted things people don’t believe them about. One woman says people don’t believe that she’s played with baby lions and tigers, another says people don’t believe she wants to become a heavy equipment opera- tor. Then, the video transitions into the women talking about people not believing them about being sexually assaulted. In the emotional piece, the women describe being assaulted by people in their lives: friends, a co-worker, a family member, a boyfriend. It ends with each of the women telling the viewer ‘I believe you’ before coming together and saying ‘We believe you’. Sexual assault is a notoriously under report- ed crime. According to a 2013 Statistics Can- ada report, nine out of 10 non-spousal sexual assaults are never reported to police. In the video two women report contact- ing police and not receiving the justice they felt they deserved. In the headlines, a Cana- dian judge--Robin Camp--is currently under review for his conduct in a sexual assault case where he asked a woman why she couldn’t keep her knees together and repeatedly referred to her as the accused. “This is again one of the reasons why so many women choose not to go forward, because they know more likely than not the criminal justice system is not going to give them the justice they’re looking for,” said Cohen. The DRCC fields roughly 300 calls annually and sees 200 clients for counselling includ- ing group and individual counselling. Cohen said at any given time the organization has 60 women on a wait list for individual counsel- ling services. The women range in age from 16 to their 70s. “They are younger women, they’re middle- aged women, they’re older women, they’re single women, they’re married women, white women, women of colour,” said Cohen. “The reality is sexual violence doesn’t recognize any parameters, our clients look like anybody, like everybody.” Thursday’s Take Back the Night rally will be a place for people to hear from survivors, a place for the community to come together to say they support and believe women who have been assaulted and an opportunity to create awareness about what the impact of sexual assault looks like. “We want people to recognize when some- one is sexually assaulted it’s not just about sex, they’ve had all of their power, all of their con- trol and all of their human rights taken away from them,” said Cohen. Take Back the Night event begins at 6 p.m. on Sept. 15 at YWCA Durham, 1 McGrigor St. The video will be launched shortly after on DRCC’s social feeds including Facebook page www.facebook.com/DRCCca.

And, acknowledging the elephant in the room, a mete- orologist has predicted a return to seasonal norms when winter arrives -- which may take some time to occur. “Overall, we’re forecasting above normal temperatures for the fall,” meteorologist Doug Gillham said during an interview Tuesday, Sept. 13. “But that’s a moving target,” Gillham added. “You’re always going to have back-and-forth temperature swings in the fall.” The Weather Network is also predicting an above nor- mal number of sunny days for the autumn, which offi- cially begins Sept. 22. While temps will be relatively warm, it’s important to remember that as the season pro- gresses, the norm drops by about a degree and a half a week, with the fastest rate of drop-off occurring as Octo- ber progresses. The predictions for a pleasant fall come on the heels of a remarkably hot and dry summer, the byproduct of the El Nino effect that brought about last winter’s warmer- than-average winter, said Gillham. Those high temps have lingered as summer transitions to autumn, but there will be swings -- Thursday’s high is predicted to be just 20. As for the winter? Don’t expect a mild season like last year’s, said Gillham. “We think it’s going to be rather different from last win- ter; we think the true start of winter will probably hold off until later in the season, after the new year.” And then? “We think January and February in particular are going to be colder than normal,” Gillham predicted. Enjoy the pleasant weather while you can.

If cancer comes knocking, give it a fight and live like you expect to win Gord Downie and The Tragically Hip received an outpouring of support after news of the lead singer’s terminal cancer diagnosis, but it’s bittersweet because can- cer threatens other lives. Last month was the fifth anniversary of NDP leader Jack Layton’s death and earlier this year, former Toronto mayor Rob Ford passed away from an aggressive form of the disease too. When I first heard about Mr. Downie and the Hip’s farewell concerts, I couldn’t help but think, “Is this it?” We’ll go to the con- cert, say our goodbyes, and be satisfied. Why should we? Slowly cancer has become our new normal. According to the Canadi- an Cancer Society’s website, the 2015 sta- tistics show, “about 2 in 5 Canadians will develop cancer in their lifetimes and 1 in 4 will die of the disease.” My godmother died from cancer when I was in my teens. Here was this short, robust woman who became skin and bones right before my eyes. I remember coming into her room and looking up at an oil painting of her that was done years before. There, she looked like her jolly and vibrant self, but then I’d look at the woman in the bed and think, “Who is this?” Cancer is a foul illness that intends to take life and I think we’ve come to expect that it will. That’s why I wasn’t excited about the Tragically Hip’s concerts. It just seems like a longer funeral procession with songs that we know and I don’t want to go down that road. I don’t want to hear about another person who’s been diagnosed or lost their battle with cancer. It’s like it’s Canada’s dis- ease - the same way we have other national symbols only this one doesn’t just have one picture. It has a multitude of faces. If you’ve been healed from cancer, take heart. If you’re in the battle right now, resist! This sounds simplistic, I know. I’ve been accused of this already, but what’s the alternative? A diagnosis does not have to be the end of your story. Miracles can happen, so why can’t it happen for you? No amount of research money matters if a per- son doesn’t have the will to live. So if can- cer comes knocking, give it a fight and live like you expect to win because as my father used to say, we’ve got places to go, things to do and people to see. -- Renae Jarrett lives in Durham, loves Canada and is a communicator of truth.

Residents can donate used costume in exchange for another BY KRISTEN CALIS kcalis@durhamregion.com PICKERING -- Pickering residents can soon exchange their old Halloween costume for another one that’s new to them, thanks to a successful program at the library. Pickering Public Library staff decid- ed three years ago to try out a Hallow- een costume exchange after learning about libraries in the U.S. hosting similar events. “Our community has a large amount of families with numerous children in them,” said Sarah West, children’s ser- vices librarian. “Multiple-kid families mean you’re buying a Halloween cos- tume every single year. If you’re buying that for five kids that can get pricey. And then what happens to that costume? We want to be sustainable.” From Sept. 19 to Sept. 29, the library will accept clean, gently used Halloween costumes for the exchange. When someone drops off a costume at any library branch, they’ll receive a tick- et that will allow them to come back to the exchange event on Oct. 1 and select a costume to take home. If the costume has props to go with it, they’ll need to be placed in a large seal- able plastic bag, attached to the costume. The library will also accept costume props and accessories without costumes. Those with costumes they would like to donate but do not want a new one in exchange are welcome to donate them during this time. If there are gaps in sizes of the costumes available, staff will purchase some from Value Village, so costumes are available for all ages. “Every year it’s growing,” said West. “We’ve had really positive feedback from the community.” The exchange will take place on Sat- urday, Oct. 1 from 2:30 to 3:30 p.m. at the Central branch, located at One The Esplanade, Pickering. Ticket holders will be able to select a costume beginning at 2:30 p.m. Those who don’t have a ticket can select a costume starting at 3 p.m. and are asked to provide a donation to the food bank in exchange. “We really hope this will continue to grow,” said West. “We hope the commu- nity takes advantage of it.” All leftover costumes will be taken to the Salvation Army Thrift Store in Pickering. The event is free and open to people of all ages.

Made for Seniors du r h a m r e g i o n . c o m Ne w s A d v e r t i s e r • Se p t e m b e r 1 5 , 2 0 1 6 19 AP Do You Have Any of the Following Conditions? • Lower or Upper Back Pain • Muscle spasm or strains • Bulging lumbar discs • Numbness or soreness in your legs • Shooting hip or thigh pain Having back and leg pain can bring life to a standstill. You might not be able to play golf, work, or even sit in the car for a 30-minute drive. It’s almost impossible for anyone around you to understand how you feel. You can’t remember the last time you even had a restful night’s sleep. You have too many dreams left undone to let back pain slow you down; too many special moments waiting to be experienced. Life is too short to let pain slow you down. Pain is your body’s warning sign telling you something is wrong. Sure, you can numb the pain if you take enough pain or anti-inflammatory pills. When you mask the pain, it can prevent your back from healing – maybe even damage it further. Not to mention many of the pain medications available are quite addictive and can have devastating side effects. Could This Be the Solution to your Back Pain? We are Dr. Michael Gauthier and Dr. Mark Kasiban. Over the past 19 years we’ve seen hundreds of people with back pain leave our office pain free. Because we’ve seen it with our own eyes, we know... Back pain is NOT “just a part of life” and something you have to live with. Chiropractic has been around for over a hundred years, and has been used to help everyone from tiny babies to the elderly. Even top sports stars and entertainers…like Tiger Woods, Emmitt Smith, Tony Robbins, Joe Montana, Lance Armstrong, Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger and Mel Gibson receive chiropractic care. These professional athletes have the money to hire any kind of doctor they want, yet they choose to have a chiropractor on their team. “Here’s what some patients have to say…” “I had a sore back for 20 years and after I started chiropractic it was gone.” (D. D., Ajax) “I used to cry myself to sleep…now the pain is gone” (A. P., Ajax) “I was in pain constantly. I was told I would need a hip replacement in a few years. I would have to live with the pain. After getting chiropractic adjustments I am completely pain free. I have control back in my life. Thanks.” (M. M., Whitby) Here’s what some of the top medical researchers have to say about chiropractic… “Chiropractic adjustments, with or without exercise, improved symptoms more than medical care did after both 3 and 12 months.” –British Medical Journal “Chiropractic adjustments of the spine are more helpful than any of the following: traction, massage, biofeedback, acupuncture, injection of steroids into the spine, back corsets, and ultrasound.” –Stanley Bigos, MD, Professor of Orthopedic Surgery This means in just a matter of weeks you could be back on the golf course, playing with your kids, enjoying your love life, or traveling again.

TRYTHEICE www.dwgha.com WIFENATIONAL APPRECIATION DAY While the history of Wife Appreciation Day is somewhat obscure, it seems the idea originally was born to honor the women who, while they are married, do not have children. SEPTEMBER 18TH, 2016 “Happy wife, happy life!” It is an old saying but it is true. Appreciation goes hand in hand with admiration, respect, and esteem. All of these things are adjectives that describe how you probably felt about your wife before she was your wife; when you were trying to catch her eye, while you were dat- ing, and when your relationship moved to “exclusive” status. Most likely, she felt the same way about you, so you did it … you proposed! You got engaged, you got married, and life was good. So what happened? What changed to make things more difficult than during those “good” days? It’s called getting comfortable. For whatever reason, at some point in time, you stopped leaving notes on the bathroom mirror, putting cards in her luggage when she was going out of town, buying flowers for Valentine’s Day or her birthday, and every other little thing that you used to do to make her smile, feel appreciated, and know that you love her. September 18th is National Wife Appreciation Day, remind her how much you love her. ~ If I had a flower for every time I thought of you, I could walk in my garden forever.

The event runs Sept. 16, 17, 23 and 24. Historical production by Backwoods Players Sept. 16, 17, 23, 24 BY MIKE RUTA mruta@durhamregion.com DURHAM -- History isn’t set in stone; if new information is revealed, it can change. And so it is with A Spirit Walk: Call to Rebellion, the Backwoods’ Players dramatic production about how and why Pickering people were involved in the Upper Canada Rebellion of 1837. While it was quickly crushed, the rebel- lion precipitated Lord Durham’s Report on the Affairs of British North America and The British North America Act. Director Catherine Hodge notes that Chief Justice Sir John Beverley Robin- son, who delivered the verdict in the trials of the rebels, including sentenc- ing Peter Matthews of Pickering Town- ship to death, has been portrayed in the play as a remorseless hardliner. “Now we know he lived with signifi- cant guilt,” she says. Hodge, a self-described “history nerd,” says it illustrates one of the main challenges faced by the 60-member cast in performing A Spirit Walk: “how do we interpret the characters. “We haven’t had coffee with them so we really don’t know what they were like,” she says. The locally written and award-win- ning production comes to Pickering Museum Village Sept. 16, 17, 23 and 24. Hodge has been a part of it for 18 years, performing two roles. A few years back she began helping Osha- wa’s John Edmonds, the previous, long- time director, whom Hodge says “wore many, all the hats.” She says her approach to portraying these people from the past is “to create a balance.” Every single person of the time wasn’t equally angry at the state of affairs, or even angry at all, so she wants to provide a variety of characters to make it more realistic. Hodge says the other big challenge is that the play is performed outside at different spots in the village. Apart from variable weather, random insects, and the odd noisy vehicle on Hwy. 7, the night production has to be lit and audi- ence members need to be able to move from place to place. But the challenges are met every year and Hodge says “a core” group,” rough- ly 80 per cent of those involved, returns again and again to be a part of A Spirit Walk. Pickering Museum Village is at 2365 Concession Rd. 6, Greenwood (north Pickering). Tickets are $17.70. Visit pickering.ca/ eStore.

Fifteen comics coming to Durham for comedy week Three nights, venues in Oshawa, Whitby, Bowmanville BY MIKE RUTA mruta@durhamregion.com DURHAM -- Jerry Seinfeld proved that comedy can be clean and funny. And that’s what’s in store as Durham Comedy Week comes to the region. “There are so many great stand-up com- ics and it’s not all foul stuff,” says show pro- ducer John Leonard. “These are the kind of people I wanted to get.” So Leonard has organized three nights of comedy at three places in Durham. It’s all stand-up but the comedians’ styles are different, with some opting for one-liner jokes and others specializing in situational or observational comedy. Each hails from Canada and he says “that’s the way it’s going to stay. “All of (the comics) have a lot of experi- ence -- at least 10 years each,” Leonard says. “A lot of them have been on the CBC show The Debaters; they all write their own stuff.” There’s Heidi Foss, seen on Comedy Now! and the Just for Laughs TV show, who won a Canadian Comedy Award for her writing for This Hour Has 22 Minutes. Mark Ben- nett of Toronto, originally from St. John’s, NFL, who may tell a few jokes about his dad. Jen Grant, a veteran of every big com- edy festival in Canada, who also has her own TV special on The Comedy Network. Evan Carter, a stand-up comedian for 30 years or so. And Simon Rakoff, “widely regarded as one of the quickest and clever- est Canadian stand-up comedians,” Leon- ard says. Each night and venue gives audiences five comics. Here’s who’s joking when and where: Sept. 16, 8 p.m. -- Heydenshore Pavil- ion, 589 Water St., Whitby Judy Croon, Todd Graham, Mark Ben- nett, Mark Debonis and James Hartnett Sept. 21, 8 p.m. -- Garnet B. Rick- ard Recreation Complex, 2440 Hwy. 2, Bowmanville Jeff Leeson, Jim McAleese, Lawrence Morgenstern, Jen Grant and Glen Foster Sept. 24, 8 p.m. -- Regent Theatre, 50 King St. E., Oshawa Simon Rakoff, K. Trevor Wilson, Jon Steinberg, Heidi Foss and Evan Carter Leonard plans a comedy festival next year as well, expanding to six venues and 30 comics.

This article relates to all those who take on the thankless job of coaching minor hockey. Here is the stark reality: Only approx- imately .03 per cent of kids who start minor hockey in Ontario end up play- ing in the National Hockey League and earn a living playing this game. The other 99.7 per cent end up being our future professionals and leaders — the doctors, lawyers, business own- ers, etc. of our society. Thus, isn’t minor hockey really and truly about learning life lessons such as teamwork, respect, and how to work toward a common goal? It is the lifelong friendships and bonds formed as teammates that make those early morning practices and countless hours spent at the rink all worthwhile. So how is it that the men and women who coach our kids’ minor hockey teams end up facing so much scrutiny and criticism? These people, who for the most part volunteer their time, should be applauded for all their time and hard work but instead the opposite rings true in far too many instances. Let’s do the math. There are between 17 and 20 players on any given minor hockey team with only six players, goalie included, allowed on the ice at one time. Then factor in only one puck and it becomes clear to see where the problems around ice time begin. As a coach, it is impossible to keep every parent happy but it’s important to recognize that that’s not actually the job. The coach’s job is to keep the best interest of the team in mind at all times, to foster skill development, and to instil lessons that our kids can take with them wherever their path may lead them. All minor hockey parents need to take a hard look at how we view our coaches. They deserve our support and thanks for what they do in help- ing develop our children, not our criti- cism. Curtis Hodgins is the head coach of the UOIT men’s hockey team. Contact him at Curtis.Hodgins@uoit.ca Curtis Hodgins Guest columnist Karen Longwell / Metroland COBOURG -- Pickering Panthers forward Thomas Hernandez played the puck in a game against the Cobourg Cougars at the Cobourg Community Centre. The Panthers lost 6-1. OJHL club loses coach Patrick Shearer before season even starts BY BRIAN McNAIR bmcnair@durhamregion.com PICKERING — The Pickering Pan- thers sure haven’t had much luck with coaches the past few seasons, but the team’s new director of hockey oper- ations, Steve Sardellis, is confident they’re headed in the right direction despite another such setback. Patrick Shearer, who was hired out of Quinte minor hockey in the off-sea- son to be the new head coach, left the team during training camp for undis- closed personal reasons, and has been replaced by assistant coach Dave Demarinis, who was an assistant with the Stouffville Spirit last season. Sardellis says the transition has been a smooth one, as Demarinis shared the same hockey philosophy as Shearer and, being from Pickering, is familiar with the local talent. The Panthers opened the Ontario Junior Hockey League regular season with a 5-4 overtime loss in Stouffvile Saturday, Sept. 10, before falling 6-1 in Cobourg two nights later to a stacked Cougars team. Sardellis points out that only 18-year- old Russell Nowry of Oshawa brought OJHL experience into the two games, as the team awaits the return of cap- tain Tiger McDonald from injury in about another week. “We’re young, we’re fast, we’re very exciting to watch because we play an open brand game,” said Sardellis. “We don’t sit back and trap it up and try to stay close. We want kids engaging and playing hockey the right way. We’re going to build a team moving forward that way.” Sardellis plans to add some more experience through trades, but is com- fortable moving forward with a young team with the hope of taking a run at a championship in three years. “We’re trying to teach young kids how to be Jr. A hockey players,” he explained. “Everything’s a learning curve and we’re just getting better every day.” He expects the Cougars, Trenton Sting and Wellington Dukes to be very strong within the conference, and the Markham Waxers to be the class of the North Division in which the Panthers reside, but otherwise hopes to com- pete for one of the other four playoff spots up for grabs. “There’s definitely room for us to make the playoffs,” he said. “It’s just a matter of how quickly our young guys jell and how quickly they mature.” The team is at a disadvantage cur- rently with renovations ongoing at the Pickering Recreation Complex, and will play its first 10 games on the road before finally hosting the Whitby Fury on Thanksgiving Monday, Oct. 10, at 1:30 p.m. When they do christen the new ice, which will be NHL-sized now as opposed to Olympic-sized previously, Sardellis says it will be well worth the wait for fans looking for a better hock- ey experience. Off the ice, the Panthers have also struck a five-year naming sponsorship deal with the Boyer Auto Group, more reason for optimism, he says. The Panthers went through five dif- ferent head coaches between the start of the 2014-15 season and the end of last season, which saw the Panthers miss the playoffs for a second straight year with a record of 15-32-2-5. Shear- er, who lives in Stirling, said he left on good terms. “Honestly, it was just a personal deci- sion,” he said by phone. “I don’t want to get into too much else, so I’m just going to leave it at that. We parted fine, and I’m just going to move on to differ- ent things here in the Quinte area.” Panthers plan to peak in three years du r h a m r e g i o n . c o m Ne w s A d v e r t i s e r • Se p t e m b e r 1 5 , 2 0 1 6 34 P SportS Want to know what’s happening in Pickering?

ON NOW AT THE BRICK! SportS Sam Harding traded to Kingston Frontenacs BY BrIAN McNAIr bmcnair@durhamregion.com OSHAWA — The Oshawa Generals finished just below .500 for the pre-season by losing a pair of home games last weekend -- or pseu- do home games, if you will. As the Generals eagerly await the home opener of their 80th anniversary season Sept. 30, and the unveiling of the new video score- board, they have yet to play a game at the General Motors Centre, instead showcasing the club to fans in Ajax and Bowmanville for the final two OHL exhibition contests. The team came up short on both occa- sions, however, falling 5-2 to the Kingston Frontenacs Sept. 10 at the Ajax Community Centre and 3-2 to the Peterborough Petes the next night at the Garnet Rickard Recreation Complex to finish with a record of 2-3. Prior to that, the Generals had beaten both teams, 6-4 in Peterborough Sept. 4 and 4-3 in Kings- ton Sept. 9, while also dropping a 7-1 deci- sion in Owen Sound in between. The Generals have since decided to move forward without veteran centre Sam Hard- ing, trading the 19-year-old Newmarket native to the Frontenacs for an eighth-round draft pick in 2018. “He played here for three years, won a Memorial Cup, was a loyal soldier who had zero issues as a person and as a player here,” said Roger Hunt, vice-president and general manager of the Generals. “But, we’ve gone through some exhibi- tion games here and (Renars) Krastenbergs looks like he has the skill that we thought, (Serron) Noel and (Danil) Antropov are amongst the absolute new guys, and (Kyle) MacLean, (Robbie) Burt, (Jack) Studnicka, those guys have to take the next step, too,” he added. “It was just a case of getting some of these younger guys into a better situations … At the end of the day, we want to challenge them and see what they’re made of.” Captain Anthony Cirelli and defenceman Mitchell Vande Sompel, unsurprisingly, were the top point producers in the pre-sea- son, with Cirelli picking up a goal and four assists in three games and Vande Sompel scoring three goals and seven points in four games. Cirelli (Tampa Bay) and Vande Sompel (New York Islanders) are among six Gen- erals now off to NHL training camps, and likely to return at some point, if not as early as the Sept. 23 regular season open- er in Sudbury. Defencemen Riley Stillman (Florida) and Sean Allen (St. Louis), goal- ie Jeremy Brodeur (Columbus) and Com- misso (Boston) are even more likely to be returned quickly. Generals show faith in youth movement OHL club hopes it has a keeper in Kyle Keyser BY BrIAN McNAIr bmcnair@durhamregion.com OSHAWA — In acquiring goalie Kyle Key- ser from the Flint Firebirds, the Oshawa Generals are looking further down the road than in the present, even if an immediate need arose through injury. The Generals shipped a second-round draft pick to the Firebirds Sept. 9 to land Keyser, a 17-year-old prospect for the next National Hockey League draft, who had requested a trade. He will fill a void left by a training camp injury to Logan Gauthier, who appeared destined to be backup for Jeremy Bro- deur, the incumbent No. 1. But, with Brodeur in his final, over- age year, and the Generals hoping to bid for the 2018 Memorial Cup, it’s obvious there’s much more to the trade than a knee-jerk reaction. “Kyle’s going to come in here and he is going to be part of the future, there’s no doubt,” said general manager Roger Hunt, who swung a deal with Flint GM George Burnett. “He’s going to be part of the present, too, but with his age and we hope his pedigree, he’s certainly going to be a big part of our team going forward and hope- fully help in our bid to host a Memorial Cup as well.” Hunt admitted he had his eyes on Key- ser dating back to his minor midget days with the Plymouth-based Victory Honda U16 team, but he had already been draft- ed by the time the Generals had a second pick, in the fourth round. A native of Coral Springs, Florida, Key- ser went 74th overall in the 2015 OHL draft and, as a rookie with a struggling Firebirds team last season, managed a 4-10 record with 4.37 goal-against aver- age and .880 save percentage. At six-foot-two and 182 pounds, Keyser has good size, which has served goalie coach Zac Bierk well working with pre- vious Generals goalies like Daniel Alt- shuller and Ken Appleby. The Generals now have several goal- tending prospects in the system, includ- ing 2016 draft pick Nathan Torchia, who has been sent to the Tier 2 Orangeville Flyers, and 2015 pick Barrett Mundell. Gauthier, who turns 18 Sept. 14, is expected back in early-October, which should create an interesting scenario in the crease for head coach Bob Jones. “I think Jeremy is at his best when he’s being pushed as well, and Kyle’s going to get that chance, and once Logan’s back, we’re going to try and get him playing as well,” said Hunt. “I think it’s something where you can never have too much depth at that position.” As a rookie, Keyser won the Ivan Ten- nant Memorial Award as the OHL’s top academic high school student last sea- son, achieving a 95 per cent average at Grand Blanc High School. “You make a trade based on the play- er, but the fact that he is that scholastic player of the year obviously shows he has an incredible amount of discipline,” Hunt pointed out. “We liked him as a goalie, but the fact that he’s a first-class kid on and off the ice … obviously shows characteristics of intelligence, persever- ance and discipline.” A problem with Keyser’s U.S. hockey transfer prevented him from playing in the final three pre-season games, but he will be ready for the Sept. 23 season opener in Sudbury. ryan pfeiffer / Metroland BOWMANVILLE -- Oshawa Generals forward Sullivan Sparkes tried to deflect a shot on net in front of Peterborough Petes defenceman Declan Chisholm, who was play- ing on his home rink in Bowmanville Sunday.

ZEH, Konrad July 21, 1936 - September 1, 2016 - We are sad to announce that Konrad passed away at Ajax-Pickering Hospital September 1, 2016. He is survived by his adoring wife Teresa (Teri) Cordes, son Mark, and granddaughter Samantha. And predeceased by son Brian in 2013. Konrad was a brother, brother-in-law, father-in-law, uncle, nephew and cousin, neighbour and friend to many. Konrad was born in Germany and came to Canada in 1953. He was an active resident in the Bay Ridges area in Pickering, Ontario, since the early 1960s and a former member of PESCA, LACAC and United Way Board of Directors. In 2001 he retired from the Printing industry, typesetter turned proof-reader and became an avid motorcyclist, specifically sidecar motorcycles. He and Teresa enjoyed many adventurous trips in that sidecar and made countless friends on their travels. Konrad was a man you did not forget. He will be remembered as he was in life - - unconventional, frugal and practical. And in keeping with that, no formal service will be held. A remembrance celebration will be held on Sept. 17, 2016. Contact family for details. In lieu of flowers donations to Rouge Valley Ajax-Pickering Hospital for staff education is requested by family.

Leaking basement?invest in your Foundation with over 35yrsexperience www.noleaks.ca905-686-6880 waterproofing 10year warranty! free estimates! professional and courteous service we will solvethe problem! Crawford & Sons: Fixing Basement Leaks Right the First Time Water can damage anything it comes across, including carpets, flooring, furniture, drywall, electronics and more. At the first sign of water entering your basement, it’s time to call the experts. Trying to repair it yourself can lead to delays and more damage being done. You want to work with professionals who will repair your basement leak right the first time. The first step in repairing a basement leak is pinpointing where the problem is. Every home is unique, and there isn’t a one-size-fits all solution for every type of leak. You need someone with experience who can determine the source of the water and come up with the right solution. Gordon Crawford of Crawford & Sons Waterproofing in Ajax has been in the business for over 35 years and has been in over 15,000 homes in Durham Region. “I’ve seen virtually every possible leaking situation you can imagine and I’m still learning,” he says. Once the source of the leak has been determined, Gordon will devise a solution that will be both successful and cost efficient. “I like to professionally solve problems at the lowest, most reasonable cost to the customer,” he says. “Sometimes that may involve excavating the entire perimeter of the house and replacing the weeping tiles, but that’s because it’s absolutely necessary.” Sometimes, the best solution is to stop the leak from inside. This will also avoid having to dig up any landscaping. “An interior weeping tile system with drainage board is a very good solution,” says Gordon. “It’s extremely efficient and cost effective by saving costly damages to exterior landscaping.” It’s important to fix the leak as soon as you spot it, as the longer you leave it, the more damage it will do. “Water corrodes and people tend to live with the problem until it escalates into a bigger one. You have to get in quickly.” Crawford & Sons offers fast, neat, efficient service and a free professional evaluation. For more information, call Gordon at (905) 686-6880.
