Both the victim and the 18 -year-old who was holding the gun when it discharged are foster sons of Juliet Duke -Hunte, the operator of Sylvia's Residence. Sally and Ian's excellent arctic adventure By Rob Dubeau PHS co-op student Every day is iitera]y an adventure for Ian and Sally Wilson. The couple have traveled across Canada for the past three years and written three books based on their journeys — the most recent about a 13 -month arctic expedition in the Northwest Territories. When they're not busy on some new journey, the Wilsons live out of a camper with a mailbox located in Vancouver. The couple were in town last week detailing their real-life adventures to ywngsters in local public schools. The presentations included slide shows and a demonstration of how to build igloos rising styrofoam blocks. During a presentation to approximately 100 youngsters at Pickering's Highbush Public School on Nov. 26, the couple gave a colorful and graphic rendering of their most recent expedition. It began on July 7, 1990 — an arctic trip from the headwaters of the Thelon River in the Northwest Territories. The Wilsons planned a 1,200 km canoe trip to Hodson Bay. "We decided to go on the arctic trip because we had seen pictures of the area in books and thought it would be better to see it for ourselves; Sally Wilson said. "We didn't realize what we were getting into though. Eur as the saying goes, ignorance is bliss.- - During the three-month canoe trip, the explorers faced many ,annoying dements — none more pesky than the mosq does. "Sane days there were so many mosooes we couldn't evert see in front of us," said Ian Wilson. "Acrd every tune we would kilt the 6d off the cooling pot, hundreds of mosquitoes would fly into the food. But we pretended they were pepper and ate them ____-" One of the more memorable moments during the canoe trip was the morning they awoke to find a huge herd of caribou outside Continued on Page 4 The victim, who has been upgraded from critical to satisfactory condition, underwent surgery at Sunnybrook Health Science Centre in Toronto after he was shot once with a gun, Durham Region Police said.

The writing process can be used across the curriculum as a tool for sharpening critical thinking skills. The act of writlnt, and the process of editing forces students to hone high-level thinking skills. To write successfully, students must assess and evaluate information, organize and prioritize I ideas and take existing data and form new I opinions. These actions represent the critical thinking skills educators aim to teach today's students. Thev are also the skills researchers and employers claim are missing in a majority of recent high school graduates. j Nountine faith ir wri:ine as a learning tool j that can support critical thinking skills has fostered a variety of writing projects and approarhws.

The writing to Learn Project based in Washington, U.C., claims that using writing as a learning tool has allowed low achievers to move out of special education curriculums and into mainstream classrooms. Approaching writing as a process is fundamental to the success of the Writing to Learn Project. In a typical Writing to Learn classroom, students write several drafts, discuss their compositions as a group, edit each other's work and vote on which pieces deserve to be included in a class anthology. One teacher set up a "phone file' so students could call in and read their work over the. phone. It helped many stu(;enL Find their mistakes and identify ways to reorganize their writing. 'Real world' writing extends the power of writing as a learning tool.

N The Bay News, *De64iber 1, 1993 3 Keep special ed programs, public tells trustees By Glenn Hendry The Durham Board of Education has a $15 million Problem and went to the public at Ajax High School Monday night looking for solutions. Board trustees, faced with the dilemma of a possible revenue shortfall of $15 million — a 6.7 per cent tax increase — or further reductions in school programs and services, were looking for answers at the community meeting, the fifth of seven planned. Unfortunately, while ratepayers who made presentations to trustees were sympathetic to the financial woes of the board, their overwhelming message was clear — don't cut programs and support services. Approximately 40 people attended the meeting arid a dozen made presentations. A common theme was special education classes, especially for gifted students, that were hit with a loss of more than 24 teaching positions last year at the secondary school level alone. "It is shortsighted to believe the critical task of delivering special education can be done by teachers without special training," said Phyllis Karstulovich, a member of the Exeter High School parents advisory council. "This program has been needed and will continue to be needed now, perhaps Tore than ever." Glen Bryers, who has a daughter in the gifted program, carne out in support of the program — as did his daughter, Danielle — noting that there are areas that can be trimmed "without affecting our childre,'s education." Susan Blakelock, a mother of two also spoke out in favor of gifted classes, noting that gifted students are no longer "exotic specimens" and shouldn't be mainstreamed into regular classes. Other programs and services discussed by the public presenters included cafeteria services, busing, class sizes, educational assistants, French immersion and instrumental music classes. Mary McMillan, the president of Children's Services Council (Durharn), asked the board not to cut support services for students. On the chopping block for next year are nine speech and language pathologists and six psychological service staff who help teachers deal with behavioral problems in the classroom. McMillan, who represents organizations concerned with health, rehabilitation, prevention, developmental services, mental health, education, young offenders and family services, suggested her group work together with the school board to lobby the provincial government :o stop funding cutbacks. "We are aware that the Durham board is also responding to budget pressures and has some very difficult decisions to make," she said. "It seems that is only through working collaboratively that the reeds of Durham's citizens will be heard at Queen's Park." There were other presenters at the meeting who said cutting areas couid be found by getting back to basics and eliminating "fancy schools." Louise Farr, the school board's trustee chairman, said she expects furrer ::nding cuts t-.o.m the province, so the board has :o look at changes. Ti,;;--y-four programs and services in an estimated budget o: S3SO 4 millior. are on :he firing line. "Education cannot continue, in the Torg ruri, :o pick up all the services needed by students," she said. I -W 4 "11"Vi rIN!

They found refuge with a 75 - year -old Inuit woman named Mamaaq in a small village called Baker Lake, approximately 300 km from Hudson Bay. They lived with Mamaaq, her children and her grandchildren for the winter and observed the Inuit way of living. Mamaaq did not speak English. Her son Chuba 'ranslated. The Wilsons adopted many of the Inuit customs during their s'ay with Ma;naaq — including eating raw fish eyes and boiled caribou hooves like the Inuit People. It snowed in the village for nine ^tont: s each year. The residents no longer live in, :gloos. Now most of the homes are made from plywood. The Inuit had modern conveniences uke snowrnobiles, bicycles and all-ter7ain vehicles. As winter approached, the W4&n.s realized their clothing .,jou d not be •warn: enoug:, for --:e ,;pcomm. ng season•.. The -eople of the village thea, how to make parkas and gloves from caribou fur. On the coldest days, the Wilsons dressed in outfits consisting of seven layers of clothing. "At fifty below zero we really didn't care what we looked like," said Ian. The villagers also showed the Wilsons how to build a proper igloo. The couple's first attempt fell to the ground after 10 hours of work — as did their second eight-hour attempt. But their third igloo remained standing after six hours of cutting and packing. "Igloos are great," said Ian. "Because when it is below fifty outside the zero degree weather inside the igloo seemed warm." The Wilsons knew that before they could go back out on their ow–, . they would have to be able to build an igloo in better tame. They practised often, and were eventually able to build one in an hour. M'.d-winter :he W:!sor.s decided to cont;n;:e their 'rip. •'h was very ::pser ng to 'leave Mamaaq,- said Sa:: Wilson. "She had conte to ca!', us her tiguaq (adopted children)." They left Baker Lake to go exploring the coast of Hudson Bay by dogsled. They purchased a team of seven wild huskies to pull their 15 -foot sled. "I'm afraid of dogs even today," said Sally. "If I see even the smallest dog on the street I'll cross over. Bu' I pushed my fears aside because I wanted to see how it would feel to ride on a sled pulled by dogs." During their five-month dogsled adventure, the huskies pulled the sled across 2,000 km of land. "We used to take turns pushing the sled when the dogs would get tired," said Ian. Because they were so close to the magnetic north pole, the Wilsons could not use a compass to guide them. Instead they learned to folow ridges in the snow. The wind blew from northeast to southeast and left markings They toured the Hudson Bay area, taking more ;han 5,000 pic=es throughout their ^:p. The W:sons waned -o bring the seven dogs bacx home with them, but realized the huskies' thick fur in a warmer climate would be unhealthy for the animals. Instead they returned them to their original owners in Baker Lake. The Wilsons ended their 13 month journey by canoeir.; back to an area called the Rankin Inlet — located on the Thelon River. When they returned home 'o their camper the Wilsons drove to Montreal where they turner their notes into a third book called Arctic Adventures. "For me, it was the mc;: difficult, dangerous trip — bu'. the most rewarding," said Sally "I'd much rather be out ice fishing than in a mall," Ian added. "But, then again., Sa.� and I are a bit different from. most other people anyway-- Currently the Wisorts spend most of their time touring schools and giving presentations to students. Their next journey begins in April. The Wilsons pian to ride four horses from British Columbia to the Yukon.. Neither has ever been horse riding before, but as Sa'l!y Wilson says, "ignorar:ce is biss."

Once inside, the three proceeded to start up the grill and cook themselves something to eat. 'They cooked up danishes, chicken sandwiches and some french fries. They were having a good time,' said police spokesman Inspector Bruce Pugh. The teenagers ate their way through $40 worth of food before police, acting on a tip from nearby residents, arrived at the scene.

Such a thief would have you believe that everyone is being ripped off by big business anyway so it's OK to turn the tables and get even — and reap the illegal savings to boot. People of good conscience see through the facade. They reject this line of flimsy and contemptible reasoning because stealing is %Tong no matter who you steal from. We are all aware of the cost of shoplifting. The dollars in lost corporate earnings means job losses for some and higher prices for everyone. We all pay for the actions of a thief. The millions of Canadians who participate in the so-called "underground economy" of tax evasion aren't much different from the department store shoplifter. In fad, they're worse because the tax shortfall created by "under the table" employment or cash -paying "GST and provincial tax avoiders" an only be made up one way — by those who do pay their fair share. A Gallop poll conducted artier this month shows that 33 per cant of Canadians dodged gMOTS t taxes at last ons during the past year by paying cash. Ontario residents are among the leaders in this illegal practice. Thirty-five per cent of those surveyed in Ontario by Gallop admitted they dodied paying salles taxes by paying rash during the past yac Ironically, its those who can afford to pay tolio chat the most.

Official Plan situation " a mess," says Witty By Glenn Hendry If you think Durham Region officials are happy their revised Official Plan has finally been approved by the province — after more than two years of delays — think again, says Ajax Mayor Jim Witty, the vice -chair of the region's planning committee. Witty told The Bay News that he has yet to see the planning document announced Thursday as signed, sealed, but not -yet - delivered by municipal affairs minister Ed Phillip. Witty said Phillip may have also reneged on parts of the plan that had already been verbally agreed upon, such as projected population, employment and density figures for the next 30 years in Durham — a major sticking point for the region. 1n short, Witty said, the situation is a mess. "We don't even know what we aro s-upposed to be reacting to yet," he said. "Its an extremely frustrating process. Its also a process that has been slow enough at the best of times, but this has been ?ust terrible." The only knowledge Durham's planning committee has on the Official Plan comes from a press release from the ministry, released last week In the re:ease, Phillip described the ?Ian as a "very good balance" of environmental considerations and he congratulated Durham for working "long and hard" to produce the document. Witty, however, said he is in the dark about what the region Is being congratulated for. 'This really isn't over. Until we get the (zoning) maps we don't know where we stand so it continues to be a problem," he said. "We will continue to wait Ew we've been waiting for over two �" l The whole process has been frustrating since Durham first submitted the document in September 1991, Witty said. The province was supposed to return ft six to eight weeks later, but instead, took 22 months before serxbN it back, complete with revisions that local politicians said will stifle future development. - After several months of talking with ministry officials, planning committee members thought they had a deal. Now they're not so sure. Uxbridge Mayor Gerri-Lynn O'Connor, who chairs the committee, puts some of the blame squarely on the shoulders of Durham West MPP Jim Wiseman and called him "an obstruction" to the process during a recent regional council meeting. Wiseman, however, brushed the remark off, saying "Gerri- Lynn O'Connor is Gerri-Lynn O'Connor." Wiseman said his contribution to the Official Plan talks were to try and ensure agricultural land and wetlands were protected in the document. The MPP, who described himself as having "consistently and persistently" been an advocate of protecting agricultural land, said he, unlike Witty and O'Connor, has been briefed on the final document. Witty was not about to let Wiseman off the hook, however. "He has continued to put obstacles in our way at the ministry level," he said. "It's unfortunate that our member of provincial parliament did not sit through the hundreds of meetings to see what we were trying to accomplish." The long planning process has not been without some internal bickering at Durham Region, either. T:e Town of Whitby objects to one of the zoning changes in tha document, the location of the proposed link between Hwy. 401 and the future Hwy. 407. They want the link to run along Lakeridge Road while most regional councillors — as well as the transportation ministry — want the road to run between Halls and Coronation Roads. The difference of opinion led to a bitter argument on the council floor three weeks ago. 1993 7 P .n a�arin� 3ontest laisdale JOHN BROUWER GARDEN CENTRE THE LEATHER WAREHOUSE Where Christmas is Everyday Factory Direct 4517 KINGSTON RD.

A similar committee is already in Vaughan dealing with the operation of the Keele Valley landfill site. The decision to work together on landfill concerns came out of a "fruitful" meeting last week — chaired by Pickering Mayor Wayne Arthurs — between Pickering, Durham Region, Metro Works and provincial environment ministry offidals. The meeting was initiated because of Pickering concerns over a recent request by Metro to transfer 110,000 tonnes of material from the Metro -owned Brock North landfill to Brock West. "We made some headway in All- AECL Nuclear Fuel Waste GOT ANY QUESTIONS? You're not alone. Vi'e'd like to send you information about how Canada manages its nuclear fuel waste and on a concept for deep geological disposal. For 15 years AECL Research and Ontario Hydro, through a joint Canada/Ontario program, have conducted research into permanent disposal of nuclear fuel waste deep in the rock of the Canadian Shield. The concept is currently being assessed under the Environmental Assessment and Review Process (EARP). During the scoping phase of the environmental assessment, the public indicated a need for more information. This Ad is appearing in Saskatchewan, Manitoba, Ontario, Quebec and New Brunswick.

"But the most important thing for us is that Metro has no intention of reactivating Brock North." Brock North, located east of Brock Road and north of 5th Concession, opened in 1978 and was used by Metro and Durham for approximately one year. At a Nov. 1 Pickering council meeting, local politicians approved a series of motions to accelerate the fight to close Brock West, including officially rejecting the Metro Works waste transfer plan. Councillors also agreed to discuss legal action with lawyers from Pickering -Ajax Citizens Together for the environment (PACT). They endorsed the PACT position to close the dump and make an appeal to the environment ministry to revoke Brock West's Certificate of Approval. Oshawa Councillor John Aker, the regional works chairman who also attended the conference with his Metro counterparts, said he had some trepidation before the meeting. But he said Metro is now more cognizant of the problems associated with Brock West. Arthurs said that despite the headway made at the meeting Metro Works still wants to move garbage to Brock West. Pickering officials reminded Metro staff that the town does not support the request, believing the dump is already full. The total cost for the transfer, which requires provincial approval, is estimated at $700,000.

The weeks prior to exam week were busy ones at DHS, especially for the Student Activity Council. The 1993 SAC fundraising campaign began with a slow start, but ended up with a record amount of gift wrap and candle sales. The money raised will be returned to the students for club and team activities. Also, the SAC sold Student Price Cards the week prior to exams. These $5 cards entitle students to a large number of discounts at many clothing, sporting goods and music stores, as well as fast food outlets. Unfortunately, the cards sold out within the first week of sales, but more are expected to be on sale for the week of Nov. 22. Youth Alive is organizing Santa Cause this year. The fundraising drive is held every year at Dunbarton for a week in December. All monies and gifts raised will be donated to needy families within the community. This year's drive will be held the week of December 6.

Zimmerman's major complaint is that the ward change will break up historic Pickering Village. The Village, which was in existence prior to 1861 (known then as Duffins Creek), is currently served by one ward. Under the new proposed plan, parts of the Village will be shared by three different wards. Zimmerman said the change will "disenfranchise" the area. However, Ajax Clerk Joe Tiernay, the only witness called by the town, said the ward change will actually increase the Village's representation. Tiernay also said the ward change will give Ajax a seven - man council — the mayor, two regional councillors and four local councillors — bringing the town in line with neighboring Pickering and Whitby. Under the Ajax proposal, Ward 1 will be located approximately north of Highway 2 and west of Westney Road. Ward 2 will be located north of Highway 401 and east of Westney Road. Ward 3 will be located south of Highway 2 and west of Harwood Avenue. Ward 4 will be located south of Highway 401 and east of Harwood Avenue. The change better addresses future growth in the town, Tiernay explained. "It was quite obvious the old Wards 1 and 2 would be far too large in the future," he said. "They're the growth centres for the town." A second Ajax resident, Guy Colm, in a letter, said the town gave "insufficient reasons" for making the change. He couldn't attend the meeting. Tiernay said the town wants to get approval for the ward change quickly. An order in council is required after OMB approval.

The store is filled with just about everything you can imagine in used hockey, baseball, golf and other sports equipment. There's skates, hockey gloves, goalie equipment and hockey pads — all used, all in good shape, and all at great prices. Recycled Sports also stocks a wide selection of golf clubs and bags, bicycles, snow boards, skis and boots, and all types of sports balls. There are new hockey sticks and baseball gloves that have been discounted 40 per cent off the manufacturer's suggested retail price. Recycled Sports also repairs hockey gloves, goalie equipment and baseball gloves, and performs golf club repair and re -gripping. There's even a $3 skate sharpening service. Owner Jim Avrams opened the Pickering location approximately one year ago. He got the idea back in the early 1980s when he decided to exchange his daughter's skates. Avrams realized then that there were plenty of skate exchanges, but virtually no store that catered to other types of sports equipment. He opened his first used sports equipment store in Toronto in 1988 and the idea took off. The Pickering location features a spacious showroom filled with equipment. Clothing items have been completely laundered while other sports equipment has been cleaned and refurbished. The used sports equipment comes l<> from two sources — large suppliers like Spalding, Cooper, Dynamo and Winrrwed, and from people who deciide to sell their own used goods.

However, all retain their durability and function. Recycling sports equipment is an idea definitely in tune with the conserving 1990s. Avrams describes the nature of his business as a "win-win" partnership. Companies and people who sell their slightly blemished and used equipment make money they normally wouldn't. Shoppers receive top-quality equipment at a great discounted price.

Per person • Beverages Call to Reserve 683-3210 last week that the Liberal government has pledged approximately $16 million for works projects in Durham. He warned, however, that the money is not for "dusting off old pet projects" but for new, environmentally -sound plans. The money is also not intended for projects that employ people from outside the region who "buy a cup of coffee at the local restaurant and go home." "We're looking for projects that will actually put money in the pockets of the people of Durham," Shepherd said. The ideal proposal would have to be related to "putting people back to work," he explained. Prime Minister Jean Chretien promised, during the federal election campaign last month, to provide $6 billion for municipal nfrastructure job creation projects. The projects will be funded equally by the federal, provincial and municipal governments. Oshawa councillor John Aker, the regional works chairman, said Durham is ready with three projects. On the top of the list is the Ajax water plant. Beaverton will also receive high priority. Aker said if the federal and provincial governments can each supply $4 million for the water plant, the region is prepared to kick in the remaining $57 million. "You ll get such a bang out of your seed money it'll be unbelievable," Aker told Shepherd. Regional Chairman Gary Herrema agreed, telling the Liberal MP that Durham is "prepared to be major players." "We have a long term plan in place for infrastructure and we're prepared to go beyond (ore - third funding)," Herrema said. The region currently has $26 million barked for the project — which would begin as early as next March — and would debenture the rest of the construction costs. Aker also noted that the water plant will provide approximately 100 jobs per year for four years and accelerate the rest of Durham's construction programs. Shepherd, a Port Perry accountant until winning the Durham Riding seat Oct. 25, said his government is also looking at bringing a fourth partner into the scheme by involving the private sector.

During the Second World War, she lived in Rotterdam in Words -Of _ Wisdom - Joo Dickson Politics is a game of strategy. The people try to find out what the candidate stands for, while the candidate tries to find out what the people will fall for. When you shoot an arrow of truth, dip the point In honey.

At 10, she survived an apocalyptic one -and - a -half hour bombardment during which 18,000 people died. That horrific, random destruction of innocent lives prompted her to action years later. "I didn't think governments looked after people well enough," Johannisse said in a recent interview. "When I heard in 1961 about Amnesty International, I was very excited. I am still excited." Johannisse belongs to the Ajax/Pickering chapter of the organization. Founded in 1977 by Dorothy Westney, Group 90 is one of the largest and oldest groups in Canada. Amnesty International has members in more than 160 countries. The organization helps to free between 100 and 150 people every month. Efforts are focussed mainly through letters sent by members to domestic and foreign governments, on behalf of prisoners of conscience, in an attempt to exert political pressure.

M .■ f__ Locally, Group 90 is concentrating on the plight of South African human rights lawyer Patrick Huma. The black activist was arrested in January of 1992 on robbery charges that group president Mary Sproul calls "trumped up." Huma was tortured in prison for three weeks before lack of evidence forced his release. He lost the use of one arm. Since then, three attempts have been made on his life by government -sanctioned paramilitary squads, according to Sproul. Group 90 is moving to try and protect him. "We are aware of what is happening to Patrick Huma so they can't just rub him out," Sproul said. The nature of Amnestv International's work is changing as the world evolves. "We work all over the world, but up until a few years ago the concentration was Eastern Europe. Now it's Central America and Africa," Sproul said. "When we started and until three years ago, we worked mainly to free people in prison," Sproul explained. "Now we work a lot for people who are 'disappeared.' It is a new tool for governments that is much easier (than execution). People are arrested, released and then 'disappeared' — kidnapped and killed." "They don't reappear, except sometimes in mass graves. We are moving into preventative human rights. We let govemments know we are afraid for someone or for a group of people." Sproul points to Iraqi Kurds as an example of this new direction. Human Rights Day is Dec. 10 and the local chapter is commemorating the event by flying an Amnesty International flag at focal town halls.

A call for new thinking in environmental health care During 1989 with a view to develop a more efficient property - management program, Noldus of Durham Tree And Turf Management instituted a new and different "One -Only Landform Feeding" applied in Nov./Dec. A turf format...to help reduce pesticide use in the urban environment. At the end of September 1992 we and our co-operating property owners were impressed with the overall turf and tree improvement so we are expanding the program to eventually include all of our clients on which we are placing turf foods or turf chemicals. There is a very satisfactory maintenance and/or improvement of vigor and appearance in both turf and tree populations. In Oakville, Farm and Forest Research, who are long time associates, have placed all of their Industrial estate and home -owner Membership properties on a "one - only" heavy feeding per year. V.C. Plowman. consulting arborist and Shane Plowman,, President of Farm and Forest developed the format in 1983. Their 30 years of ecological sensible approach to good property management has proven economical and environmental friendly. Way back in the fifties. -the beginning of the chemical age ... we used pesticides to combat what was believed to be an unacceptable level of insect and disease populations in urban surroundings. Sometimes these pesticides were used with little or no discretion regarding environmental "beneficial -insect" health. Given the knowledge of the time, there was little reason to believe we might be creating more problems than we were controlling. Today we have usa",e research information which, converted into usable knowledge, gives us: • Effective alternatives for control of insects and plant diseases... in our urban environment. • A knowledge to understand the interacting systems of living things in our urban environment. • The capacity to facilitate natural procedures rather than disrupt or destroy them. • An effective and responsible technology for managing tree and turf health in a manner that benefits rather than frightens our urban society. Through our association with Farm and Forest Research we began the move to this revised thinking in the early eighties. Today many of our properties have begun this intelligent approach to "Outside Landform Management." In almost every case their plant insect disease populations are at acceptable levels, vigor and appearance of trees and turf has not deteriorated, and best Of all, pesticide use has been reduced dramatically.

Thanks to you, the recycling of newspapers in Ontario has reached an asautishing 7.5% recovery rate among households with Blue Box service. How much is that.' Quite simply, more than a quarter of a million tonnes of ncwspapers were kept out of garbage .lumps in 1992, which already exceeds the provincial and national targets set for the year 2000. These old newspapers would till 35,000 garbage trucks, a bumper -to -bumper convoy that would stretch from Toronto to Kingston. Miut importantly, newspaper recycling reduces landfill dumping costs and our need for new and expanded dump situs. Recycling newspapers and flyer inserts is a real Ontario success story.
