Child left with red mark,
welt after youngsters get
into argument
BY KRISTEN CALIS
kcalis@durhamregion.com
PICKERING -- An 11-year-old boy is
accused of shooting another boy of the
same age in the face and stealing his dirt
bike in south Pickering Monday.
At about 5 p.m. on April 26, two 11-
year-old boys were comparing their pel-
let guns when one accidentally discharged
and struck a third boy. The victim wasn’t
injured, meaning no skin was broken,
but as a result, a verbal fight took place
between the two with the guns.
One of the 11-year-olds pointed his pel-
let gun at the other and fired twice, hitting
him below his left eye and ear, police say.
This second victim’s skin wasn’t broken
either but “he ended up with a red mark
and a welt,” said police spokeswoman Ser-
geant Nancy van Rooy.
Police say the suspect then stole the sec-
ond victim’s dirt bike and rode away from
the scene before police arrived. He was
later picked up by police while riding the
stolen dirt bike in the neighbourhood.
Imitation firearms such as pellet guns
are illegal when used for the purpose of
a crime since they’re often used in major
criminal offences such as bank robberies,
said Sgt. van Rooy. The suspect, however,
is too young to be charged under the Crim-
inal Code of Canada.
Police instead cautioned the 11-year-old
south Pickering resident and returned him
to his parents.
Police also returned the dirt bike to its
owner, and confiscated both pellet guns.
“They were handed over voluntarily and
they’ve been destroyed,” Sgt. van Rooy said,
adding all parties were cooperative.
Sgt. van Rooy still calls the incident a
concern.
“It’s disturbing that there is that element
of potential violence there,” she said.

Curriculum revision
process came up
‘a little short’, he says
JENNIFER STONE
jstone@durhamregion.com
OSHAWA -- A new physical and health edu-
cation curriculum for Ontario schools will
likely be mostly ready for September imple-
mentation, despite the Province’s abrupt
about-face on the issue of sex ed, says the pre-
mier.
Ontario Premier Dalton McGuinty was in
Oshawa Tuesday, touring GM and comment-
ing on the regeneration of the auto industry
over the past year. But, on a few occasions,
he was taken off-message by reporters asking
about the Province’s flip-flop on the sex edu-
cation issue.
Last week, Premier McGuinty announced
the new curriculum, developed over the last
two years and posted quietly earlier this year
to a Provincial website, was a fait accom-
pli, and would be introduced in all Ontario
schools in the fall. The matter only came to
the fore after Ajax’s Charles McVety, president
of Canada Christian College, raised the issue,
decrying the new curriculum as being overly-
explicit. What followed was backlash and out-
rage from a number of corners.
Within hours, the curriculum had been
abandoned, with the government saying it
would go back to the drawing board on that
portion of the curriculum change.
Tuesday, the premier indicated the sexual
education portion represents only one por-
tion of a 12-part new physical and health edu-
cation curriculum. The rest is ready to go for
September, he said.
“There are 11 other areas that don’t appear
to be controversial,” Premier McGuinty said.
He would not say when the sex ed portion
would be re-designed and ready to go. Educa-
tion Minister Leona Dombrowsky indicated
earlier this week that to have the sex educa-
tion portion revamped by September would
be a “very ambitious timeframe.”
It’s worth the time to have a re-think on the
matter, Premier McGuinty said, noting the
sensitivity of the issue.
“Sex education is something that is very
important to get right,” he said.
That didn’t necessarily happen in this case,
said the premier, admitting the problem was
partially to do with the curriculum itself, and
partially due to with communication of the
changes to stakeholders.
“Every once in a while, the process ... comes
up a little short,” Premier McGuinty said.

Councillors approve
bylaw; appeal period
to start soon
BY KEITH GILLIGAN
kgilligan@durhamregion.com
DURHAM -- The fight to have a question on
municipal ballots on the possible election
of the regional chairman has cleared anoth-
er hurdle.
By a 17-6 vote late last week, Regional
councillors approved a bylaw required for
the question to be put on ballots across
Durham in October.
With the bylaw passed, the next step is
for Regional clerk Pat Madill to ‘give notice’,
which is done by placing advertisements in
local newspapers. She also has to inform
the Ministry of Municipal Affairs and Hous-
ing of the bylaw being passed.
That starts the clock on a 20-day period
for anyone wanting to file an appeal of the
bylaw. An appeal would be to the chief elec-
toral officer for Ontario and it has to be on
the grounds the question isn’t clear, concise
or neutral, and it can’t be answered in a yes
or no fashion.
The question approved by Regional coun-
cil asks the public if they favour the direct
election of the regional chairman.
Addressing council on Wednesday, Clar-
ington resident Louis Bertrand said, “The
question is clear enough. Let it go through.”
Oshawa resident Dave Smith concurred,
saying, “Right off the bat, go for it. Get this
question on the ballot.
“Let the public debate and discussion
begin. It’s a discussion that should happen
outside of this chamber,” Mr. Smith said.
Clarington resident Linda Gasser also
supported the question on the ballot.
“It’s my firm belief Durham won’t achieve
its full potential until it has a chairman
elected by the people and accountable to
the people,” Ms. Gasser said.
Even with the question on ballots, how
the chairman’s position is filled wouldn’t
change until the 2014 municipal election.
Oshawa Councillor Brian Nicholson said,
“What would change if we went to an elect-
ed system? The Regional chair would have
a mandate from the people of Durham for
his office. Now, he gets it from 28 council-
lors.”
Scugog Mayor Marilyn Pearce opposed
putting the question on the ballot, say-
ing it should be up to each municipality to
decide.
She added the matter is a provincial
issue.
“They should look at it for all regions,” she
said. “It’s a misleading question. It’s mis-
leading because it’s a lower-tier responsi-
bility. I don’t believe lower tiers should be
forced to put it on the ballot.”

AJAX -- Babies’ bums and sticky fingers
might appreciate a swipe from a wet wipe,
but the disposable towelettes aren’t wel-
come in the toilets of Durham.
They’re causing costly blockages and
breakdowns in the Region’s sanitary sewer
system because they don’t break down,
says the works department, which is asking
residents to stop flushing them.
In the Ajax pumping station, $10,000
pumps that would normally last three or
four years were being replaced every cou-
ple of months because of damage caused
by the wipes, says Jim Cunningham, super-
visor for technical support.
Even though the wipes might be called
“flushable,” they’re not because the thread
that runs through the material prevents
them from biodegrading, he explains.
So they get snagged and accumulate in
the pipes, causing blockages. The ones that
make it to the pumping stations get lodged
in the pumps, causing equipment failure,
backups, residential flooding and opera-
tional problems.
Crews are currently repairing pumps in
Oshawa and Whitby.
After pamphlets asking people to stop
flushing the wipes were distributed in the
neighbourhood that was the source of
problems in Ajax, the problem stopped,
Mr. Cunningham says.
Only human waste and toilet paper
should be flushed into the system, he
adds.

Pickering residents
oppose ‘confusing’
referendum question
BY KRISTEN CALIS
kcalis@durhamregion.com
PICKERING -- Council has changed its
mind regarding an election ballot refer-
endum on the proposed Pickering air-
port, much to the delight of residents.
In the early 1970s the federal govern-
ment expropriated north Pickering land
for an airport, but to this day, a final
decision hasn’t been made. Pickering
council has stood opposed to the possi-
bility over the years.
In October, council voted to begin the
process of putting the following ques-
tion on the 2010 municipal election bal-
lot: “Do you support the City of Picker-
ing’s position to oppose construction
and operation of an airport in the City of
Pickering? Yes or No?”
In February, council approved the
question, and an appeal period was set
until March 23.
Members of Land Over Landings, an
anti-airport group in favour of farming
the lands, decided to appeal council’s
decision.
Mary Delaney of LOL felt the question
was confusing, saying it could yield inac-
curate results.
“It ain’t broke, so please don’t try to fix
it,” she told council Monday. “This is one
can of worms you don’t want to open.”
City clerk Debbie Shields explained
the question had to be worded in such
a way since the federal lands are not
under municipal jurisdiction. The ques-
tion could not ask if residents are for or
against an airport, but it could ask if they
support council’s opposition.
Ms. Delaney
explained the
matter is long and
complicated.
“We elect our pol-
iticians to work
with experts, be
they existing staff or consultants, to
make the best decisions for us,” she said.
“Ballots don’t ask the masses of the pub-
lic to give their “yay” or “nay” on foot-
bridges over the 401, on odour facility
plants, or on the budget. Why would we
throw this question, which is arguably
even more complicated, out to the pub-
lic?”
Pickering resident and LOL member
Peter Rodrigues said since there is no
sensible business case, and local oppo-
sition to an airport has been obvious,
the question should be withdrawn.
“Personally, I think it’s quite pointless
to raise a question as to which we clearly
know the answer,” he said.
Ward 3 Regional Councillor Rick John-
son said since the question is confusing,
the answer will only be convoluted, and no
real legitimate results will come of it any-
way.
“You’re going to get a convoluted-type
response,” he said. “It’s not going to be
easy to weigh that, and where do you go
from there?”
Ward 1 Regional Councillor Bonnie Lit-
tley brought forward a motion to repeal
the ballot question “because the public
does not feel the questions is clear.”
Council approved the repeal, and the
clerk will notify the chief electoral offi-
cer for Ontario.

Editorial
Opinions
PENSIONS
Government should
act for Canadians, not
financial institutions
To the editor:
Comments recently about the unfairness
to young Canadians in restructuring of the
CPP is unfounded.
In fact, younger workers stand to gain
the most through the plan to improve pen-
sions and retirement income. They would
contribute more to the CPP for longer in
their career, and therefore earn a richer
CPP pension.
What this means is that today’s young
workers could count on a CPP pension
that would be portable across jobs, insured
against inflation and protected against
market slumps.
Federal pension insurance would ensure
young workers get the pension they’ve
earned.
Most importantly, young Canadians
could access jobs freed up because older
workers, thanks to improved retirement
income security, would not need to pro-
long retirement plans, as is the case today.
Labour’s plan to reform Canada’s retire-
ment income system will make a real dif-
ference for younger workers who have been
urged to “fend for themselves” by bankers
and life insurance companies seeking to
extract decades of fees from RRSP invest-
ment in mutual funds.
Financial institutions should not be
given 10 years to show what they can do.
Our government needs to act swiftly for the
interest of Canadians not in the interest of
financial institutions.

COMMUNITY
Local volunteers make
a huge difference in
Durham neighbourhoods
To the editor:
Every year during National Volunteer
Week, we have a golden opportunity to
show our appreciation to volunteers for
their service and commitment.
As chair of the grant review team in Dur-
ham, Haliburton, Kawartha and Pine Ridge
for the Ontario Trillium Foundation, one
of Canada’s leading grant-making founda-
tions, I would like to recognize the remark-
able dedication of the local review team
with whom I have the honour of serving.
I applaud their outstanding commitment
to improving life in our community. Volun-
teer time is unpaid time, and that makes it
especially valuable.
Last year in the Durham, Haliburton,
Kawartha and Pine Ridge area alone,
approximately 6,000 volunteers contrib-
uted close to 146,000 hours of their time to
support organizations that received fund-
ing from our foundation.
If we translate their efforts into value, it
comes to almost $ 2.5 million of giving.
During Volunteer Week, I urge you to take
a moment to thank volunteers for working
at making our communities a better place
to live. In these critical times, I also encour-
age everyone to join the ranks of volunteers
and help strengthen our community.

HUMOUR
Cartoon was hard to follow
To the editor:
Re: ‘Scrabble’ cartoon by Patrick Lamon-
tagne, April 9. Call me dumb or dumber,
but I absolutely didn’t get the editorial car-
toon. Perhaps my brain is ‘srabbled’?
If this cartoon suggests an indictment
of our next generation being deficient in
awareness of our history, heritage and
remembrance thereof, then it’s still a car-
toon stretch with the cartoon tie-in.
Perhaps an editor’s note was in order.
Regardless, there have been far better car-
toons on that page of your newspaper.
Putting it in colour was even more over-
kill.

Graffiti about much more than words painted on concrete
It’s difficult for the majority of Pickering
residents not to take offence to overt acts of
racism, sexism or religious prejudice.
Our collective sense of community, our
historic practice of embracing diversity is
shaken when a cowardly few make their
offensive views plain for all to see.
Police in Pickering are currently investi-
gating a case of vandalism in which anti-
Islamic graffiti was spraypainted in red
on a sidewalk across the street from the
Pickering Islamic Centre. Police believe
the proximity of the offensive graffiti to the
Islamic centre was deliberate.
The thugs responsible might see it as a
harmless sign of these difficult times, but
Durham Regional Police investigators are
taking the matter quite seriously, as is the
larger community, and rightly so.
Officials with the Canadian Council
on American-Islamic Relations, while
acknowledging that the Pickering incident
is not isolated, added it is their belief that
the offensive anti-Islamic sentiments car-
ried in the crass message are not held by a
vast majority of Canadians. That’s true.
But that vast majority can’t remain silent
in the face of such divisive and offensive
commentary. Just as the calls for moder-
ate Islamic voices come on the heels of
the latest international terrorist attack, it is
imperative that voices of moderation in the
larger community come out to condemn
this act.
If Pickering is a microcosm of Canada,
an adopted home to people from all cor-
ners of the Earth, it must also live up to the
collective multicultural heritage that has
come to define our country.
There is no achievement, no victory, no
future in demonizing those of another
faith, whether Christian, Jew or Muslim.
Here at home, we cannot afford to shake
our collective heads and go about our busi-
ness. Without a public effort taking issue
against these thoughtless, hurtful acts, we
provide succour to the perpetrators, we
embolden them to do more. To paraphrase
the adage, all that is necessary for the tri-
umph of evil is for good people to do noth-
ing.
Local citizens can do something by
speaking out against prejudice in all its
forms. They can provide police with any
tips to make these vandals accountable for
their hateful actions. They can embody all
that is good about being Canadian by tak-
ing a stand and doing what is right.
This is about more than a few offensive
words painted on a sidewalk. It’s about
acknowledging our differences, adapt-
ing narrow views and finding ways to live
together in a civil society.

DURHAM -- Durham Deaf Services is
holding its first-ever fundraising event this
Sunday.
The event on May 2 runs from 9 a.m. to 2
p.m. and is being held at the Civic Dome, on
Thornton Road south of Hwy. 2, in Oshawa.
One of the features is the opportunity to
undergo ‘sensitivity training’, to learn what it’s
like to be hearing impaired. Participants will
do a number of activities that will illustrate
the communication challenges and barriers
faced every day by deaf individuals, as well as
learning to communicate by using American
Sign Language.
The sensitivity training is open to everyone,
offering a fun and interactive approach to
deaf awareness and culture.
Other activities include a five-kilometre
walk/run, a children’s obstacle course, silent
auction, face painting, booth displays, colour-
ing stations and a kids’ play area.
The DDS notes one in four Canadians report
having some degree of hearing loss. The ser-
vice provides communication, integration,
ASL teaching and education programs for
deaf children, adults and senior citizens.

The longer days and increased
sunshine of spring can be a great
motivator to get outdoors and be
more active. The benefi ts of physical
activity are well-accepted, but many
people don’t realize the importance
of exercise when attempting to quit
smoking. Even moderate physical
activity can reduce cravings and help
manage withdrawal symptoms. And,
beginning a new routine, whether it
be walking in your neighbourhood
after dinner, or working with a
trainer at a fi tness club, can also be
an effective distraction to help keep
you on track.
Want to Quit Smoking? ...Exercise Can Help!

QUIT
TIPS
Set a quit date
Start a new
exercise routine
Get support from
friends and family
Recognize and
avoid your triggers
This spring, take on a new
challenge. Make the commitment
to become healthy on the inside as
well as the outside. Pick a sport or
physical activity and use it to help
you become smoke-free.
If you’ve recently quit smoking,
keep up the good work! Remember
to reward yourself and if you do have
a setback, don’t panic. Be persistent!
It’s important to recognize your
triggers, make a plan to avoid them,
and get right back on track!
Quitting smoking is hard work, but
you can do it!
“Ramy Chehade recently quit smoking with the
help of a specially trained GoodLife Fitness
Personal Trainer. This past winter GoodLife Fitness
and the Ontario Lung Association teamed up to
offer Quit & Get Fit, a unique, trial program that
integrated smoking cessation with physical activity.”

Aladdin meets Jasmine
PICKERING -- Students at William Dunbar Public School presented Disney’s Aladdin
Junior on April 20, 21 and 22 at the Glenanna Road school. Aladdin, a street urchin,
played by Mackenzie McDonald-Bogan, appealed to Jasmine, left, played by Taylor
Adams, in an opening scene of the musical play on April 23. More than 110 students
and staff were involved in presenting the play.
Lesbian, gay, bisexual
and transgendered teens
can party in Oshawa
ASHLEY BAIN
newsroom@durhamregion.com
OSHAWA -- Youths all over Durham Region
are getting ready to celebrate at prom, and no
one is being left out because of sexual orien-
tation.
Local lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgen-
dered youth are once again invited to cel-
ebrate at the second annual Durham Pride
Prom.
“It gives them a chance to just be them-
selves, meet other LGBT youth in the Dur-
ham Region, and overall just a great night.”
says Julie Chartier, of the Eastview Boys and
Girls Club, one of several community organi-
zations hosting the event.
With a successful first year under their belt,
the Durham Pride Prom organizers hope to
beat numbers from last year, which saw 80
youths at the party. The prom, which has
had only positive reviews from the commu-
nity, according to Ms. Chartier, is a chance
for these teens to be in a space where they
are safe to be true to who they are, and not be
judged for it.
The event is hosted by various community
partners including Durham Regional Police,
the AIDS Committee of Durham Region,
PFLAG Canada-Durham, the Ontario Sec-
ondary School Teachers’ Federation District
13, the Town of Ajax and more. The end-of-
year celebration allows LGBT youth in Dur-
ham Region, ages 16 to 21, to dress up and
have a good time with friends.
The Oshawa Golf and Curling Club, 160
Alexandra St., will be the venue for the prom
May 7, which will begin at 6:30 p.m. and carry
on until midnight. Pride Prom is expected to
“play out just like a real high school prom,”
says Ms. Chartier.
Just like every high school prom, the night
will start off with photos and mocktails, fol-
lowed by dinner, dancing and, of course, the
coveted title of prom king and queen will be
up for grabs. This year’s theme will be a Fire
and Ice Masquerade.
Tickets are $20 per person, which includes
dinner, photos, mocktails and the dance.
Tickets will be on sale until April 28.

Winner Takes All
“Winner Takes All” surely says it all!
On Monday April 26, 2010 staff at the Great Blue
Heron Casino drew the winning ballot in the “$100,000
Winner Takes All” promotion. Patrons and staff lined
the promotional area within the casino, anxiously
awaiting the name of the lucky winner.
Immediately following the draw, the jubilant
winner was contacted. “I can’t believe it”, was all
Wolfgang S. of Oshawa could repeatedly say when
informed of his $100,000 win.
“It is always such a thrill when someone wins
big at the Great Blue Heron. Our staff takes great
pride in being part of such a positive experience and
we want to wish Wolfgang all our best”, said Great
Blue Heron Marketing Director Perry Steiner.
The Great Blue Heron Casino opened
on January 31st, 1997 and since opening has
attracted over 14 million visitors. The Great Blue
Heron Charity Casino is open 24 hours a day, seven days a week and features a
complete gaming experience of 545 slot machines and 60 table games. The facility is located just
east of Port Perry less than one hour Northeast of Metropolitan Toronto, and an easy 30-40 minute
drive from Markham, Oshawa, Ajax, Pickering, Peterborough and Lindsay.

NOTICE OF PASSING OF A BY-LAW
TO SUBMIT A QUESTION TO THE ELECTORS
The Regional Municipality of Durham
605 Rossland Road East, Whitby, ON L1N 6A3 • Telephone 905-668-7711
PUBLIC NOTICE
TAKE NOTICE that the Council of The Regional Municipality of Durham passed By-law No. 20-
2010 on the 21st day of April, 2010 to submit the following question to the electors in all lower-tier
municipalities in The Regional Municipality of Durham at the next regular municipal election to be
held on October 25, 2010:
Are you in favour of the Council of the Regional Municipality of Durham passing the
necessary resolutions and by-laws to change the method of selecting its Chair from
appointment by the members of Regional Council to election by general vote of all electors
in the Region?
YES NO
Under the provisions of the Municipal Elections Act, 1996, as amended, referendum results will be
binding on the municipality, subject to some exceptions, if at least 50 per cent of eligible electors
vote on the question.
If this question receives a binding “yes” result, Regional Council will undertake all measures
required to give effect to changing the method of selecting the Chair of The Regional Municipality
of Durham.
If this question receives a binding “no” result, Regional Council will not do anything to change the
method of selecting the Chair of The Regional Municipality of Durham during the 2010-2014 term
of Council.
The costs of implementing the results of the question would be modest if the result is in the
affi rmative and are considered to be negligible if the result is in the negative.
Appeal Process
The Minister of Municipal Affairs and Housing and any other person or entity may appeal to the
Chief Electoral Offi cer of the Province of Ontario on the grounds that the question:
a) is not clear, concise or neutral; and/or
b) is not capable of being answered by either the “YES” or “NO” options provided.
Notices of appeal must be received by the Regional Clerk no later than 5:00 p.m. on May 19, 2010.
Notices of appeal are to be fi led with the Regional Clerk at the Clerk’s Department, 605 Rossland
Road East, First Floor, P.O. Box 623, Whitby, Ontario L1N 6A3. A Notice of Appeal must set out
the objections to the by-law and question and the reasons in support of the objections.
Dated at Whitby, Ontario, this 29th day of April, 2010.

I’ve been an orthotic wearer for the past ten years and I need
to replace them as they have lost their stiffness. My last two
pair of orthotics were fabricated from a plaster cast impression
of my feet. I now see some offi ces using other impression
techniques such as carbon imprints, semi weight-bearing foam
box impressions and full weight-bearing computers gait analy-
sis. Is there really a difference?
Dear Reader:
Thanks for your letter. We have not addressed orthotics yet
in any of our articles. The term orthotics comes from the Greek
work “ortho” which mean “straighten”. Thus, an orthotic will
straighten or align a foot deformity.
Orthotics are fi tted to the patient’s foot and, when worn in
shoes, will redistribute the patient’s weight on the foot so that
their gait is more balanced and abnormal motions are con-
trolled. This will allow the patient to function more comfort-
ably.
Orthotics are made out of many different types of materials
of varying fl exibility (soft, semi-soft or rigid) thicknesses and
shock absorbing abilities. We as podiatrists take in to account
the age and weight of the patient, the activity the orthotic is to
be used for and the shoe type it is worn in. It is not uncom-
mon for a patient to have two pairs of orthotics, one pair for
athletic shoes and the other for fashionable shoes. The athletic
orthotic is bulkier broader and more cushioned. It is better suit-
ed for wearing when exercising. The thinner orthotic, usually
the newer graphite material is better suited for inserting into
tighter fi tting dress shoes.
The type of medical problems that can be eased by the use
of orthotics are numerous but most occur as a result of a foot
that has a weaker arch (fl atter foot) causing the foot to pronate
or roll into the arch. This type of motion can lead to arch pain,
shin splints, planter fasciitis, knee hip and lower back pain to
name a few.
The impression taking technique like the foundation of a
house is most important to achieving a positive orthotic result.
The preferred method and the one that I use in my offi ce is to
take a plaster NON WEIGHT BEARING cast of the patient’s
feet. This will give the exact position before it has calloused.
Avoid foam box impressions as they collapse the arch some-
what and it is more diffi cult to achieve the neutral position.
Don’t be fooled by the high tech illusion of the computerized
gait analysis. This looks state-of-the-art but again the arch is
collapsed on weight-bearing.
No one in the health profession sees more feet than a podia-
trist and therefore no one is better trained to treat them. Many
other professionals as well as retailers are selling orthotics.
Know to ask the right questions including what impressions
technique is used. The practioner prescribing orthotics must
possess the following qualities.
1. The practioner must have a detailed understanding of the
fabrication, must understand how errors in the cast can affect
the shape and function of the orthotic.
2. The practioner must be able to treat the patient as an en-
tirety not just the feet.
3. Finally, and most importantly the practioner must un-
derstand the biomechanics of the lower extremity and how to
adjust or modify the orthotic after it is dispensed.
Orthotics although not covered by OHIP are usually covered
by most extended health care plans. Know the restrictions of
your plan. Some may only pay when a plaster cast is taken.
Other plans may only cover the cost of the treatment if it is
provided by a podiatrist. If you are unsure about the quality
of care, make some phone calls. Most podiatry offi ces will be
more than helpful in explaining their offi ce policy with regards
to orthotics.
If you have a specifi c question you would like answered or a
topic you want addressed send it to:

Star guard turns
down chance
to team with
brother Devoe
AUSTIN, TEXAS -- Cory Joseph has
made his decision.
The six-foot-three point guard
out of Pickering has signed a let-
ter of intent to play basketball next
season at the University of Texas.
Joseph chose the Longhorns over
a group of schools that included
Connecticut, UNLV, Villanova and
Minnesota, where brother Devoe
has played the past two seasons.
With the Longhorns possibly
facing the loss of two guards from
this past season’s team in Avery
Bradley, who has already commit-
ted to the NBA draft, and Jordan
Hamilton, who is still attempting
to come to a decision regarding his
future, Joseph saw the opportunity
to enter the program and make an
instant impact.
“My goal is to go in there and
hopefully be an impact player,”
Joseph told ESPN.
“I want to play hard and I hope
things will work out for me. I want
to get better every day ... and be
fully committed to the team and
basketball.”
Joseph also told ESPN that he felt
of the five schools that showed the
most interest, Texas and their style
of play best suited what he brings
to the table.
“I had a great relationship with
coach (Rick) Barnes and all the
staff and players,” Joseph said. “I
feel that it’s the best fit for me over-
all.”
At Texas, Joseph will team up
once more with Findlay Prep
teammate Tristan Thompson,
who previously committed to the
Longhorns.
After winning a pair of OFSSA
titles with the Pickering High
School Trojans, Joseph left home
for Findlay two years ago, where
he and Brampton’s Thompson
won a pair of ESPN Rise national
championships.
Barnes, meanwhile, is excited to
have added Joseph to the fold for
2010-11.
“Cory is simply a winner who will
definitely have an impact on our
backcourt,” Barnes told the Long-
horns’ website. “Not only is Cory
a very good basketball player, he
is an excellent person with a truly
wonderful family. Cory comes
from a successful Grass Roots
Canada AAU program coached by
Ro Russell. Cory also has played
for an excellent high school pro-
gram at Findlay Prep, coached
by Michael Peck. Both of those
are winning programs who have
excelled at the highest levels.”
Attempts by the News Advertiser
to reach Joseph were unsuccess-
ful.
BASKETBALL
Pickering’s Joseph makes commitment to Texas
Former Pine Ridge
student will play
Division I basketball
BY SHAWN CAYLEY
scayley@durhamregion.com
FORT DODGE, IOWA -- Kurt
Alexander’s two-year stint at
Iowa Central Community Col-
lege has paid dividends.
The six-foot-two guard, and
former Pine Ridge Secondary
School product, recently signed
on with Drake University and
will play on the Division I NCAA
school’s men’s basketball team.
For Alexander, the signing
marks the conclusion of one
chapter in his basketball journey
and the start of another.
“It was definitely on my mind,”
he said of playing NCAA basket-
ball after signing at Iowa Central,
a junior college, two years ago.
“I want to go to the next level.
I want to play at the best level I
can ... That was the biggest thing
I wanted to do.”
Alexander, who averaged
almost 19 points a game for the
Triton this past season, had inter-
est from several schools before
inking with Drake. Those inter-
ested included Washington State,
Creighton, Illinois and North
BASKETBALL
Alexander signs
scholarship at Drake
PHOTO SUPPLIED BY IOWA CENTRAL ATHLETICS
FORT DODGE, IOWA -- Pickering’s Kurt Alexander played the last
two years at Iowa Central Community College and recently signed
on to play basketball at Drake University this fall.
I want to go to the next level. I want to play at
the best level I can. Kurt Alexander
Dakota State.
Not bad for a kid, who out of
high school, generated very little
interest from recruiters.
So at the time, Pine Ridge coach
Jason McKenzie sent out DVD’s
of Alexander in hopes of piqu-
ing the interest of schools, but it
wasn’t until Triton coach Den-
nis Pilcher saw the video package
that something materialized for
Alexander.
And that’s all it took.
Pilcher was intrigued by Alexan-
der’s raw ability and talent level,
but knew the youngster needed
some work. Seeing the potential,
Pilcher had Alexander signed to
play for the Triton before he even
made a visit to the campus.
“Kurt came here as an unknown
product. When he came here, he
was a talented player, but he real-
ly had to work on his skills,” said
Pilcher, who has spent 31 years
coaching at IC. “His perimeter
shooting, his overall ball han-
dling, his passing, his defence.
He has worked hard on that and
shown all kinds of improve-
ment.”
Alexander, meanwhile, in addi-
tion to crediting McKenzie for
going the extra mile in finding
him a place to play, was full of
praise for Pilcher and his staff
when asked to describe the big-
gest reason behind his recent
success.
“The coaches, man. The coach-
es believe in me. They put the
ball in my hands and let me do
what I have to do to make plays
and score the basketball,” said
Alexander, who was named a
first team NJCAA Division II All-
American this season. “That and
my teammates. They have faith
in me. That’s what drove me to be
successful.”
After watching Alexander trans-
form his game from pure scor-
er to all-around player, Pilcher
believes the best is yet to come.
“It’s my feelings, and I don’t
think there is any question, that
his best basketball is ahead of
him,” he said. “He’s really a late
bloomer. He’s got a good future
in basketball.”

U12 beats
Gloucester in
provincial final
AJAX -- The Ajax U12 Pro-
vincial Petite ringette team
captured the 2010 provin-
cial gold medal over nine
other teams from across
Ontario.
Throughout the year, the
team participated in tour-
naments in Mitchell, Water-
loo, Guelph, Pickering and
Ajax, but the medal wins
remained elusive. The team
then qualified to compete
in the 2010 provincial A

Ferris, the birthplace of rin-
gette.
It took eight games in four
days and a 2-1 win over
Gloucester to capture the
gold medal as Ontario’s top
U12 A level team. The team
was best in goals against
with a 1.87 GAA.
In the final game, the girls
came together and played
their finest performance
of the year. It was a tight
game going back and forth
right up until the last few
seconds. The players, Alex
Henry, Brooke Peters, Del-
aney Hughes, Emily Earle,
Izabella Vergara, Jamie
Fahey, Jenna Pitaro, Kris-
tin Tonack, Melissa Stab-
ner, Michelle Marquez and
Nicole Fowler contributed
as a team and their hard
work paid off. The gold
medal win was truly a team
effort.
The coaching staff includ-
ed Mark Feher with assis-
tant coaches Katie Painter
and Brent Henry and team
manager Shirley Earle.

All we’ve been hearing is doom and gloom in the Trucking Industry; yet we have the work -- but where
all the drivers gone?
Shandex Truck is looking for Professional Drivers who just want to work and turn miles. If you’d like
to average 2800 miles per week, then we are the company for you.
We are looking for drivers who understand the GOOD customer service means, who know how to get
directions, who know how to cross the border, who want to put in a full week’s work.
Most of our inbound loads come back to Shandex distribution centres in Pickering; this means you
get to spend more time with your family on weekends.
We want drivers who are interested in getting their miles and going home with as little drama as
possible. Drivers with FAST cards and 3-5 years of experience would be our ideal candidiates.
If this sounds like you, and you know if it
does or not, contact us immediately &
work for a company that is growing,
not slowing.
