"It was never designed to be be- fore or after an election," says Pickering-Uxbridge MP Jennifer O'Connell of the long-awaited KPMG aviation sector analysis study, which she says is not yet complete. "It was designed to gather information for the minis- ter. There's other politics at play." Any suggestions the three- phase study is complete and a rec- ommendation has been submitted to the minister of transport have a lack of credibility, she says. "Some are trying to stoke up this idea, but there's a lack of cred- ibility in that. I've inquired with the minister's office and that's not the case."

A 68-year-old crossing guard was working at Wil- liamson Drive and Salem Road when he was assault- ed. Durham police report that the victim was as- saulted by a 26-year-old man using a gardening tool with a metal spade and fork. The victim was knocked to the ground and attacked. Citizens driving by wit- nessed the attack and rushed to the victim's de- fence. The accused was subdued and held to the ground until police ar- rived. The victim was tak- en to hospital with serious injuries. Police believe the inci- dent was unprovoked. The accused was taken to hos- pital for a mental health assessment. The suspect is from Ajax and has been charged with aggravated assault, possession of weapons dangerous to public peace and failing to comply with a recogni- zance. CHARGES LAID AFTER CROSSING GUARD VIOLENTLY ATTACKED CRIME DURHAM - A court se- curity officer employed by Durham police faces a criminal charge for alleg- edly assaulting a teenaged prisoner. The charge, announced Tuesday (May 14), came af- ter an investigation by the Professional Standards Unit into an allegation made in March of this year. A teenaged male who was in custody at the time al- leged that he'd been as- saulted by a special consta- ble with the Court Services Branch, police said. Chris Silverthorn, 47, has been charged with as- sault. Silverthorn has been a special constable with the Durham police since 2005. He was released on a promise to appear in court.

At the time, it was estimated it would take approximately two years. While she says she has no idea when the study will be released, O'Connell says once Phase 3 is submitted, it will go through a staff re- view before it gets to the minister's desk. As far as she's aware, the study is not at the point of staff review, she says. "Criticism it has some- thing to do with the election is unfounded," she says, adding the study is intended as a piece of information. "It's a piece of advice given to the minister of transport." Among those calling for a decision to be made on the Pickering airport lands is Pickering-Uxbridge MPP Peter Bethlenfalvy, who recently wrote to fed- eral Transport Minister Marc Garneau, asking that the KPMG study either be released or the expropriat- ed lands be returned to the people. "This letter is sent with the full support of the City of Pickering, Town of Ux- bridge and all Progressive Conservative MPPs in the Durham Region," he wrote. "Without a decision from the federal govern- ment concerning the fate of the land, agriculture cannot benefit from long- term planning, residences are not being considered, and business cannot flour- ish." Noting Durham is wit- nessing increased pres- sures on economic stability, Bethlenfalvy called the air- port lands "key to unlock- ing more economic poten- tial for the region." In an interview, he said his letter underscores the length of time uncertainty has been hanging over the fate of the lands, expropri- ated in 1972. "Three years is a long time to complete a study," he said. "I think all parties agree it's time to make a de- cision. Don't leave it as is. That decision is where I come from; it's a long time to make a decision." Support for a Pickering airport is confirmed from Durham Region, Pickering, Ajax, Whitby and Brock, with statements of support from the chair of York Re- gion and the mayor of Markham, points out Pick- ering Mayor Dave Ryan. The momentum of sup- port reflects increasing awareness of the issue, he says. "It's always been there," he says, adding the city has a "lineup" of private inves- tors willing to build an air- port. Three groups have in- dependently approached the city, willing to invest in building an airport. Other companies have expressed interest in locating to Pick- ering's Innovation Corridor on Highway 407, with assur- ance an airport will be built, he said. While O'Connell says there's "never been a busi- ness case" for a Pickering airport and a business case is crucial, Ryan says there's no better business case than willing private inves- tors. "What better business case is there, than private money?" Companies wouldn't invest without a return on the investment, he says. "It's not just Pickering but it's critical to the future of the GTA," he says of an airport. "The GTA is not re- alizing its full potential un- less we can optimize the la- bour force." One way to do that is to bring in high-tech industry attached to the aerotropo- lis model, he says, and that model, outlined in April at a downtown luncheon hosted by the Toronto Re- gion Board of Trade, is the preferred vision. O'Connell says she's "un- comfortable" with sugges- tions no public tax dollars would be needed by work- ing with private investors to build an aerotropolis. "I understand what that vision is, but there's never been a business case for it. Who are these investors?" The federal government would never operate with "secret investors," she says. "I have a lot of questions with that approach." Private investment didn't build the Pearson air- port, says O'Connell. "I wor- ry about the things being promised." There would be signifi- cant questions of security surrounding building an airport, she adds. "A business case is cru- cial. I can't justify spending billions of dollars on infra- structure without under- standing if it's a good invest- ment." The expropriated Pick- ering airport lands could be returned to agricultural use, she says. "There's an ability to have an investment in agri- culture." Land Over Landings, which has been advocating for 47 years to keep the lands for agricultural use, is hosting an evening with environmental lawyer and former Ontario environ- mental commissioner Dr. Dianne Saxe, during its an- nual general meeting Sun- day, June 2. Special guest is former Ajax mayor Steve Parish. Doors open at 6 p.m. at the Dr. Nelson F. Tomlin- son Community Centre, 4941 Old Brock Rd., Clare- mont.

"On McHappy Day our community believed in Grandview and the Grand- view kids," Robin Burns, of McDonald's restaurants in Oshawa said in a press re- lease. On "McHappy Day" all 24 McDonald's restaurants throughout Durham joined together to support a single cause: Grandview Kids and its Believe Cam- paign, a community fund- raising effort to help build and support a new Grand- view. "The Grandview Kids' Believe Campaign is huge," added Mike For- man, of McDonald's res- taurants in Whitby. "It's to help us build this $50 mil- lion-dollar facility to take care of the nearly 10,000 children in Durham that need Grandview's servic- es. Hopefully the folks in Durham, on McHappy Day, helped to make it just a little bit easier for these kids." Grandview Kids is the only Children's Treatment Centre in Durham Region, and provides life-changing outpatient treatment and rehabilitation services to children and youth with physical, communication and developmental needs. This substantial donation will support Grandview's Believe Campaign and a new Grandview, which is now a big step closer. "Since the early 90s, McDonald's has helped change the lives of many Grandview kids and their families," Brigitte Tschin- kel, Grandview Children's Foundation executive di- rector of development said in the release. "The com- mitment from McDonald's Durham Region, to help us build and support the New Grandview, will ensure no child is left behind, so all kids across the region will live life at their fullest po- tential. The generosity and kindness from the community on McHappy Day will ensure many more dreams will come true! Thank you for believ- ing."

Lori Glazier has worked as a delivery agent at Cana- da Post for more than 14 years. While she is the proud owner of a 120- pound Bernese Mountain Dog named Mickey, she in- sists that pet owners need to make sure their dogs are secure when their mail is being delivered. "We encounter dogs ev- ery day on our routes," said Glazier. "When we're en- countering dogs, they can be unpredictable." Glazier says all dog owners must make sure that their pets are a safe distance from the mailbox or are secured when re- ceiving a parcel delivery. Alternatively, she says owners can keep their dogs on a leash inside or outside the home. If owners fail to keep their dogs properly se- cured when a delivery is being made, Glazier says that she "keeps on walk- ing," and the mail is re- turned to the station with a note about the dog pres- ence. The mail will then be re- delivered the next day. "If I'm approaching a dog and they are off the leash, I don't take the chance," she said. "I could be carrying a big parcel and I could look scary to a dog." As a dog lover herself, Glazier says that owners need to consider the safety of their pet as well. "The last thing we want is for a dog to be punished for something that could have been preventable," said Glazier. Sec. 2 (1) of the Dog Owners' Liability Act states that "The owner of a dog is liable for damages resulting from a bite or at- tack by the dog on another person or domestic ani- mal." In some cases, if a dog is deemed a dangerous ani- mal, they may be euthan- ized. "As a dog owner, you owe it to your dog to keep your dog safe as well. Be- cause as we know, dogs can be very protective of their family and their home," said Glazier, adding that when her paper girl makes her rounds, she secures her dog Mickey in another room or keeps him on a leash at her side. To make sure everyone is safe, owners should keep their dogs on a leash or in a separate room when re- ceiving a parcel. They should also keep the dog on a leash and at a safe dis- tance away from their mailbox, so that agents can safely deliver their mail. "Keep the delivery agent or anyone approach- ing your home safe. Any instances can be avoided if you are a responsible dog owner," said Glazier. CANADA POST REMINDS DOG OWNERS TO KEEP MAIL CARRIERS SAFE JACKIE GRAVES jgraves@durhamregion.com DURHAM Lori Glazier has worked with Canada Post for 14 years and says she and her colleagues encounter unfamiliar dogs every day. While she is a pet lover herself, (here with her dog Mickey) she emphasizes the importance of pet owners keeping their pets secure and well away from delivery agents to ensure their safety.

DURHAM - Starting this fall, Durham College will be playing a big role in getting veterans across Canada ready for new jobs in the tech sector. The college is working with non-profit organiza- tion Coding for Veterans to offer online classes to veter- ans. The specialized courses, offered through the school of continuing education, will cover subjects like com- puter programming and web app development. Oshawa native David Mack knows first hand, how valuable this training will be. He spent years serving with the British Army, in- cluding tours in Iraq and Af- ghanistan. When it came time to look for a job outside the military, he struggled - even though he had an MBA and a long list of skills. "I had all this experience and I couldn't necessarily make it translate, I was dis- couraged by that," says Mack, who sits on the advi- sory board for Coding for Veterans. "I knew if that could happen to me, it could happen to everyone else." Durham College is the only school in Canada to be offering this version of the program - the University of Ottawa Professional Devel- opment Institute will work with Coding for Veterans to provide cybersecurity certi- fications. About 10,000 men and women transfer out of the Canadian Armed Forces and reserves every year. It is estimated that more than 180,000 tech jobs will be up for grabs in Canada by the end of 2020. "There just are not enough people to fill those jobs," says Debbie Johnston, dean of the school of con- tinuing education at Dur- ham College. She says veter- ans already have strong skills in areas like leader- ship, team work and resil- iency. "What we're going to do, is help them build the tech- nology skills, so when they go out and look for jobs they will be incredibly desirable candidates." Similar programs are of- fered in the United States, including Operation Code and Vets Who Code. Registration for Coding for Veterans will open in fall 2019.

Brian lived life to the fullest and touched the lives of so many. He leaves behind his beloved and devoted wife, Grace, of almost 37 years, an amazing dad to his most loving children Erin (Brandon), Daniel (Catherine), Tyler and Scott. Awesome Grandpa to his cherished grandchildren Brayden, Kameron, and Logan, and to his wonderful and true best friend, Ed Stinson (Sue and family) Dearly loved son-in-law to Ray and Evelyn Lopes, and brother-in-law to Janet (Chris) Lumb, and Carl Lopes. Predeceased by his parents Robert and Lillian Welsh. He was the second eldest of 4 children and survived by brother Gord (Tiana), sisters Linda (Don), and Karen (Ian) and many nieces, nephews, family and friends. Brian will forever be remembered for his loving kindness, integrity, heartwarming caring nature, great sense of humor, razor sharp wit and sharing his many stories and his love for hockey. He will be truly missed by all who knew and loved him. His zest for life, family and friends will be remembered through the times spent at the trailer on Benoir Lake. He loved his time on the water, boating, teaching his sons about fishing and just sitting back and enjoying late nights by the fire. Throughout the years he spent his winters in the arenas cheering on his daughter playing ringette or his sons playing hockey. His other passion was riding his motorcycle and he spent many years giving back to the yearly ride for sight. Every chance he could he would be shining up his bike getting ready for his next ride. Many thanks to Dr. Price who was there every day seeing Brian, other doctors including Dr. Bitonti, Dr. Stas and for the nurses on 2 west for their dedicated care and compassion during his time there. Visitation will be held at THE SIMPLE ALTERNATIVE FUNERAL CENTRE in Pickering (1057 Brock Road) on Friday May 24th 2019 between 7-9 p.m. and Saturday May 25th, 2019 between 10 a.m. -11 a.m. - followed by a service at 11 a.m. - and reception from 11:45 a.m. - 1:30 p.m. - .
