Watch for the City Brochure in this paper Wednesday July 31st Union a ‘foundation of love and respect’ Minister welcomes same-sex ruling BY LESLEY BOVIE AND JANE McDONALD Staff Writers DURHAM ––It’s not uncom- mon to hear people in love say they want to shout their happiness from the rooftops. But for gays and les- bians, theirs was once called ‘the love that dared not speak its name.’ Now homosexual couples can declare their love for all to hear and are close to sanctioning their unions by marrying. Three judges of the Ontario Su- perior Court made Canadian histo- ry July 12 when they ruled exclud- ing same-sex couples from being PICKERING’S COMMUNITY NEWSPAPER SINCE 1965 NEWS ADVERTISER Yeah baby!

Vandals leaving their mark Police say parks, schools hardest hit BY JACQUIE McINNES Staff Writer DURHAM —Eggs, potted plants and even chalk are their weapons of destruction. It’s summertime and that’s prime time for vandals who wreak havoc on property and aggravation for the owners. “Kids are hanging out, being bored with little parent supervision,” says Inspector Sherry Whiteway, of the Durham Regional Police Services (DRPS) Ajax-Picker- ing office. Parks and schools are the hardest hit areas so far this season but local residents have discovered eggs don’t always come sunny side up, especially when they land on your house. Eggs seem to be one of the weapons of choice in the Ajax/Pickering vandals’ arse- nal this summer. Some area homeowners have heard kids partying, particularly in walkways between homes, only to wake up the next morning to discover they’ve been egged, re- lates Insp. Whiteway. At least, egg is washable. Spray paint, markers and even chalk have proved a little hard- er to remove from schools and on back doors of com- mercial and institutional properties, she says. “Our rec- ommendation is to get rid of it as soon as you can be- cause you don’t want them staking out their territory,” says the inspector. For a Courtice resident, the return from a vacation was the beginning of a nightmare Monday morning after vandals targeted his Glen Abbey Drive home using not only eggs, but his own plants to create hours of cleanup. “We came home from our vacation around 3 a.m. and went to bed at 3:30,” says Oudit Rai. “We woke up to find eggs on our main entrance, eggs and mud on our van and our left rear tire flat with a hole in it.

Mr. Davies, 43, was charged Monday, July 15, after a year- long OPP inves- tigation into the alleged misap- propriation of charitable funds originating from criminal plea- bargains. The assistant Crown attorney had been in charge of a high-profile pyramid prose- cution of a num- ber of Durham Region women several years ago. He is accused of failing to de- posit trust fund donations aris- ing out of plea bargains made during the pyra- mid cases. BRYAN DAVIES Former Durham Crown attorney faces 18 charges.

Durham Regional Police have re- cently released the picture taken at 3:30 a.m. Sunday, June 30, when a Pickering man heard sounds in his driveway on Grafton Court. He saw two men inside his son’s parked vehicle and another one beside it. The suspects entered the vehicle by cutting open the canvas roof. Both father and son went outside and detained one suspect while the other two fled. Several pictures were then taken of the suspect with a digital camera. A few moments later another man approached and offered to help with the detainee. At that time the suspect broke free and both men fled. Nothing was reported missing from the parked vehi- cle. A grey Chevrolet Lumina was seen speeding in the area a short time later.

Since becoming a Unitarian Universalist minister in 1995, Rev- erend Cheryl Jack says she has united five or six gay and lesbian couples. But Unitarian Universal- ism has hosted the ceremonies since at least the early 1980s, says the Ashburn minister. “Since the early 1970s, we’ve been moving towards and encour- aging non-discriminatory behav- iour towards gays, lesbians and bi- sexuals,” she says. Rev. Jack says she supports the July 12 Ontario Superior Court rul- ing wholeheartedly, and doesn’t agree with the federal govern- ment’s stance up to this point –– that procreation defines marriage. “I don’t think it should matter what a person’s sexual orientation is as long as a foundation of love and respect is there,” she says. But the definition of who can get married in Canada is, finally, a federal jurisdiction. Ottawa has yet to issue its decision whether to ap- peal the recent Ontario judgment. If federal lawmakers don’t ap- peal, the Ontario court determined the necessary legislation allowing gays and lesbians to marry be made into law within a 24-month timeframe. In turn, the Ontario Su- perior Court said it would also give the provincial government two years to provide its same-sex cou- ples the same rights as when a man and a woman choose to marry. The Province also has the right to appeal the judges’findings. Rev. Jack points out the divorce rate is high, adding a heterosexual mar- riage doesn’t necessarily guarantee a loving, committed marriage with longevity. More and more hetero- sexual couples are deciding not to have children at all, she says. Under the procreation stipula- tion, those marriages wouldn’t be considered legal either, Rev. Jack points out. But while she expects the cou- ples she has joined in the past would have appreciated their union being considered legal, Rev. Jack doesn’t feel the experience was any less meaningful for them. A service of union is for all in- tents and purposes a wedding, she points out. There is music chosen, and a processional. Rev. Jack even issues a certificate of union to the couple in place of signing a marriage li- cence. The Ontario ruling came in re- sponse to a lawsuit launched by Joe Varnell and Kevin Bourassa, a gay couple, after the Ontario gov- ernment refused to register their marriage last year. The Human Rights Act, which applies to all individuals, provides protection from discrimination based on sexual orientation. The law already extends bereavement leave to gay federal employees liv- ing in same-sex partner relation- ships. In simple terms, same sex couples currently have the same rights as those living in common- law unions. “Lots of couples in general today don’t have a legal marriage. We know lots of people who live together, but they’ve still said their commitment to one another,” says Rev. Jack. “Pieces of paper don’t necessarily make a loving couple. They have nothing to do with what’s in the heart.” Rev. Jack doesn’t expect the new legislation to be retroactive but there should be nothing to stop those five couples she has joined from applying for a marriage li- cence once the ruling is fully in place. “For me, it’s an absolute joy to be able to do this,” says Rev. Jack, who is looking forward to uniting her next same-sex couple in Au- gust.

Whitby-Ajax MP Judi Long- field doesn’t support licensing. She noted she voted against a bill that would permit same-sex cou- ples from receiving benefits. “I voted for a man and woman to the exclusion of all others,” she said. “I’m hoping Ontario will appeal it. Marriage is a man and a woman. I have no problems with gays and lesbians. That’s not the issue.” As for the Liberal govern- ment appealing the ruling, she said, “If the federal government is listening to the views of a ma- jority of its members, I think they should.” However, Pickering-Ajax- Uxbridge MP Dan McTeague said the Liberals aren’t planning on making changes anytime soon. “I’m not in support of re- defining the definition of a spouse,” he said in an interview. In fact, Mr. McTeague said the feeling he gets from the few calls he’s received from con- stituents on the issue is the ma- jority support the status quo. At the municipal level, appli- cations for same-sex licences haven’t been an issue in Ajax and Pickering. “I’ve never had that inquiry,” said Pickering clerk Bruce Tay- lor. “There have been no phone calls and no one has come up to the counter.” If someone does arrive, Mr. Taylor said there is still a law in place he would have to follow. “At this point we’re not issu- ing marriage licences to same- sex couples,” he explained. “There was a section of the mar- riages act stating a marriage is between a man and a woman that was deemed discriminatory, but it’s my understanding they gave the legislature two years to amend it. Until it is amended we have to follow what’s there right now.” Ajax clerk Marty de Rond agreed. “The law doesn’t allow us to issue one,” he said, noting he, too, cannot recall anyone coming to Town Hall seeking such a licence. “They can fill out an applica- tion, but the licence itself will not be issued,” he added. “It’s not that I’m being obstructionist, but the law doesn’t permit me to issue one.” Please recycle the News Advertiser SAME from page 1 NEWS ADVERTISER/ photo illustration A sign of things to come?

In Mr. Rai’s case, the vandalism may be a personal attack, he believes, possi- bly related to his work as a criminal lawyer and with the Children’s Aid So- ciety. But, often it is more a crime of opportunity. Parks are common targets, says Inspector Whiteway who says an increased police presence is helping al- leviate the situation. “We have bicycle officers go out. It’s amazing what they can ride up on.” As well, school liaison officers, who know the local youth, have been reassigned for the summer, in the community and parks and a target team, used to assist where the policing need is greatest, have also been assigned to the parks, she says. “Basically we have a zero-tol- erance policy.” Sometimes, vandalism creates more than a mess. It can instil fear as well. In Port Perry a Catholic seniors’residence, Immaculate Conception, adjacent to a park, is battling repeated incidents of rocks and BB pellets being thrown or shot through its windows. Aside from the four windows the residence has re- placed in the past six months, the ac- tions have shaken the seniors, some of whom have been hit by rocks as they careened through the glass. No motive, other than youthful trou- ble-making has been attributed to the incidents at the Port Perry seniors’ home. Across the region, mischief crimes, including vandalism to cars and proper- ty, was up about 10 per cent in 2001 with 4,485 incidents compared with 4,075 the year before. Over the past five years, incidents in Durham have held around the 4,000 mark. In the first six months of this year, mischief related specifically to property actually de- clined from 459 reports in the first half of 2001 to 398 in 2002, says Dave Selby, spokesman for DRPS. Residents hoping to take proactive Police looking for hand in stopping vandals SHERRY WHITEWAY ‘We have to know where it’s happening to put out patrols’. measures to protect their homes and communities can invest in good lighting around their prop- erty. As well, suggests Insp. Whiteway, reporting vandalism to police is key. “We have to know where it’s happening to put out target patrols. If you see anything, report it immediately. The sooner we put out the mes- sage there’s zero tolerance, the more effective it will be.” POLICE from page 1 P PAGE 6 NEWS ADVERTISER, FRIDAY EDITION, July 26, 2002 Liberal legacy not shaping up so well To the editor: This country isn’t doing so well for it- self. We simply aren’t spending the money we should on things that guarantee our se- cure future. Things like child care, family support, schools, maternity leave, work- place child-care programs — things that make it possible for people to even consid- er having children in these modern times. The situation now is so different from a generation ago when a single-income fam- ily could make it. A generation ago, kids could walk to school and play in public parks without being snatched. There were lots of non-working moms to help share the load of child supervision. Now moms and dads must work. Everyone needs a two-income arrangement to keep a fami- ly’s head above water. For those who say it’s a choice to have kids, I say wait until you’re old and in the hospital and there’s no one to care for you. It’s all that simple. I wonder sometimes just what this Liberal government’s legacy will really be — possibly just an old, dying population.

Editorial &OPINIONS PICKERING NEWS ADVERTISER JULY 26, 2002 As I read the paper a couple of weeks back, one article stuck out. The title was unmistakable: ‘Durham Re- gion smoking bylaw may be ready by September.’Surely they jest, I thought to myself. After a month-long set of public hearings chaired by Brock Re- gional Councillor Larry O’Connor, ‘may be ready by September’was the best they could give us. A little more certainty, without the ‘may be’, would have been nice. It’s not like I fault Coun. O’Connor for the lack of vision shown by coun- cil. I’m sure he’s a hard-working politician who serves his constituents well. Except for a few grumblings out of Ajax and Pickering, Durham coun- cil has been conspicuous by its silence on the matter. It’s not like I’m asking to have my juice boxes and containers recycled or demanding the head of council, which represents 500,000 people, be directly elected by all vot- ers. No, I just want to be able to eat a meal in a restaurant with my family, and not be subjected to second-hand smoke. It’s not as though Durham would be alone in taking such a bold step. Our neighbours to the west and north- west, Toronto and York respectively, as well as Hazel’s fiefdom to the west of Toronto have all been smoke-free for over a year. Toronto will further implement its bylaw to include all clubs and bars by 2004. That alone should be the “reasonable period of implementation” restaurateurs are now clamouring for in Durham. In other words, if they don’t see the writ- ing on the wall at this point, no grace period will assuage their demands. What about the rights of the smok- ers? They pay taxes like everyone else and are also entitled to eat in restau- rants. Moreover, isn’t a true democra- cy supposed to safeguard minority rights? Fair enough, they do pay taxes and I’m not suggesting they ban ciga- rettes entirely. If one wants to light up at home, in one’s car or outside, that’s his or her prerogative. However, when it infringes on the rights of the com- mon good — the greatest good for the greatest number of people — elected members have a duty to step in and enact legislation to prevent it. I think Coun. O’Connor summed up the feelings of many when he said, “there is no safe level of second-hand smoke.” Let’s hope the powers that be heed his warning and have the fore- sight to enact a bylaw in September and make the legislation effective im- mediately. This would not only allow for a healthier environment in which to eat, but may also have the added benefit of giving a few people the needed impetus to kick the habit.

Officials with the Toronto and Region Conservation Authority were unveiling two reports that they hope will guide planning around Duffins and Carruthers creeks for many years to come. The implications are huge. Future decisions about the watershed will touch on everything from our drinking water, to air quality, fish habitats and public use. The ‘living documents’, as TRCA watershed specialist Gary Bowen so aptly described them, were two years in the making after it was discovered Carruthers Creek, which flows from Concession 8 in Pickering through Ajax and into Carruthers Marsh “was going downhill fast”. It was at that time the TRCA decided to study that watershed, as well as Duffins. Among the findings was that the Duffins, flowing from the Oak Ridges Moraine in Uxbridge and Whitchurch-Stouffville through to Pickering and Ajax and into Duffins Marsh, is one of the health- iest watersheds on the north shore of Lake Ontario. The reports also detail what makes the areas works and examines signs of de- cline and opportunities for improvements (the Carruthers rehabili- tation is coming along just fine). Based on this information alone, the time and investment was a worthy one for the two communities. It’s the next step in the process, however, that really holds vast amounts of potential when discussing the future of the Duffins and Carruthers. It’s the creation of task forces — made up of experts, local stakeholders and municipal representatives — that will go about ensuring the years ahead are bright and healthy. The teams will develop management strategies, expected in September, and then an implementation task force, which in turn will ensure regular monitoring of conditions and updates on progress. When you consider only 10 per cent of the total area sur- rounding the watersheds is developed, there’s a vested interest in ensuring they are protected as the communities encroach and grow up around them. For the studies to make maximum impact, Mr. Bowen pulled no punches: support is needed from municipal decision makers, both present and future, to ensure recommendations move forward and a close eye is kept on progress being made. That circle of assistance must also be extended to community groups and residents at large. As Ajax Mayor Steve Parish noted, “We should take this wis- dom and apply it every day. We can keep this the most beautiful watershed around if we do the right thing. If we don’t, we could lose it.” We must either use it or lose it Reports offer blueprint to ensuring healthy future for Carruthers, Duffins Dennis Kivlahan Opinion Shaper shouston@durhamregion.com 715 Kingston Rd., Exit 401 at Whites Rd.

You may not think of this area as a Mecca for tourists, but 2.5 million people came to Durham in 1998. On an annual basis, tourism contributes about $93 million to the economy. It’s everything from tours of Parkwood Estate and Cullen Gar- dens, bombing down the waterslide at Pleasure Valley, whacking a golf ball (hopefully to somewhere it can be found) on one of the dozens of courses in the region, visiting a multi-purpose conservation area such as Petticoat Creek in Picker- ing, or angling for a big catch in Lake Ontario, Lake Scugog, Lake Simcoe or one of the many creeks. Those are just some of the sum- mer activities available. Surprisingly, given our proximi- ty to Toronto, getting folks to visit Durham rather than the big city, isn’t a problem, according to those in the know. Asked if it’s hard to market the Region, Durham’s tourism manager Patti Watson says, “To be honest, it’s not. We have a great product here. A lot see the urban sprawl and the industrial base” in Durham. But she points out there are 15 museums and art galleries, 40 bed and break- fasts and 50 golf courses here. “It’s quite significant.” Alissa Smith of Ocala Orchards Farm Winery in Scugog, says it’s not a tough sell attracting visitors. “No, not at all. People interested in wines love to travel.” The winery draws people who have been at other local attractions, such as Cullen Gardens in Whitby or Parkwood Estate in Oshawa. Also, there’s the attraction of Port Perry being on Lake Scugog. “It’s not specifically the winery, but the things around us. The winery is an add-on to a day trip or a weekend.” Alison Sheppard of the Ajax economic development services, says being close to Toronto is “a plus. There are few things to do here and it’s so close. Toronto is an easy commute... there’s access to the big city without paying big city prices.” While at the town’s waterfront last year, she met a couple from De- troit. “They happened onto Ajax and they found it beautiful. They discov- ered our waterfront and found it so beautiful, they wanted to stay a few days,” Ms. Sheppard adds. Ms. Watson says the Region has an “extensive marketing program” and she targets two areas — leisure travel and travel trades, such as tour operators. For the leisure market, there’s the Durham Region Visitors’Guide, which is distributed worldwide. There’s also the fishing map, outlin- ing the hot spots for anglers. There’s a brochure for the bed and breakfast market, as well as the trail map. Ms. Watson also pushes the area to travel writers. Helping her is the Tourism Asso- ciation of Durham Region (TADR). “Our mandate is to work with Patti,” says Darlene Brown, the group’s president. “She (Ms. Watson) brings people into the region from outside. We ex- pose them to as many tourism asso- ciation properties as possible. We do it through a variety of different things. Our Web site, map, driving routes, historic routes.” TADR began a drive in May and now has about 50 members. In the past, membership fluctuated be- tween 30 and 90. “It’s up and down with the econ- omy and tourism in the area,” Ms. Brown says. Those in the association are in- volved in the tourist business, such as Ocala Winery and Tyrone Mills in Clarington. “Patti does a marvellous job. She’s made Durham Region a tourist attraction,” Ms. Brown notes. Like everything else, tourism was affected by the terrorist attacks on the United States of Sept. 11, Ms. Brown adds. People may be reluctant to travel to the U.S., she says. “There’s a big decline in earn- ings and they’re watching their pocketbooks. We hope that’s good for the region. They’re less inclined to go outside the area. They won’t go to Wonderland but they’ll go to Cullen Gardens or to the Bow- manville Zoo,” Ms. Brown states, adding by staying closer to home, people will save money on gas. The tourist association does more local promotions, while the Region does promotions provincial- ly, nationally and internationally, Ms. Watson says. She’ll purchase advertising space with a provincial government publication and in turn sell space to the association. “We need a critical mass. That’s what I’m working with,” says Ms. Watson. “Even within Toronto, we try to make ourselves as unique as possible. We need to get into peo- ple’s minds.” Among the ways of getting into people’s minds is learning to drive a race car at Mosport or going to the only wheelchair accessible farm in Ontario — WindReach Farm in north Whitby. “We need something to set our- selves apart. It’s all important to the area,” Ms. Watson says. The association helps with pro- motion and co-ordination of events. “Our biggest job is identifying who we are and what we are,” says Ms. Brown. “Next to Scarborough is Pickering. We’re not looked at as a destination, but as a gateway” to cottage country. Corporations may look to Durham for accommodation if Toronto hotels are full or to save money. “It’s helped with GO (Tran- sit) going out to Oshawa.” One of the difficulties is the view Durham is divided into the urban south and rural north. “It’s a real marketing challenge,” Ms. Brown admits. Another challenge is “push- ing Durham Region to Durham res- idents. It’s unbelievable what Durham residents don’t know about their own backyard. It’s incredible. They don’t know what’s going on,” she says. “The attitude is if it’s near you, it’s not worth it.” There are three wineries in Durham — in Scugog, Uxbridge and Clarington — with a fourth in Markham,but right on the Pickering border. “They’re international award winners” that match up with wines from around the world. “Most people don’t know we had wineries. They’ll go to Niagara for a winery tour,” she notes. Ms. Smith says Ocala gets about 10,000 tourists a year and they are “very important to us.” The winery is classified as a “tourist winery”, and doesn’t sell its products to the LCBO. “We bring tourists to sell our winery. Mainly, our winery is a small family-run business,” she says, adding “There are a lot of big players out there. “Because of our size, we’re lim- ited to the number of bottles we can produce. We keep it small and man- ageable.” They do some advertising local- ly, but also do some outside the area. TADR and Ms. Watson’s de- partment are “a tremendous help. “The idea is to bring visitors into the region as a whole. We help each other out.” Ms. Smith adds, “The tour bus industry is a large part of our busi- ness. We go out to wine events, to expose people to our wines and hopefully they’ll make the trip back to our winery.” Bus operators “work on trade shows with Patti,” Ms. Brown adds. “We go target the Toronto crowd. Forty-five minutes and they’re out here.” Ms. Watson notes, “There’s a significant business market, with General Motors and the industrial base in the region. We have people in offices who need places to stay.” Last year on the Canada Travel Web site, there were more than 1,000 inquiries about Durham, she adds.

A/P PAGE 14 NEWS ADVERTISER FRIDAY EDITION, July 26, 2002NEWS ADVERTISER FRIDAY EDITION, July 26, 2002 PAGE 13 A/P BY KEITH GILLIGAN Staff Writer AJAX — It’s hard to see him now, bent and bowed by illness and age, but Michal Fineczko remembers Pope John Paul II when he was younger, robust and eager. The Ajax resident has met the Pope on three different occasions and seen him about 12 times. A refugee of communist Poland, Mr. Fineczko was in Italy in 1986 when he met the Pontiff for the first time. “I have nice memories of Italy,” Mr. Fineczko said. While there he met Miran Konoeka, a leader with Soli- darity, the Polish union. He did some apartment renova- tions for Mr. Konoeka and was introduced to a priest, Konrad Drawacz, who arranged Mr. Fineczko’s first meeting with the Pope. On the day he met the Pope, “six people before me was Lech Walesa,” the Soli- darity leader who went on to become the president of Poland. “I met him also,” Mr. Fineczko said, adding, “I think I’m a modest guy. It’s a very huge memory for me” to meet the Pope. “The first meeting was un- believable. In front and be- hind me, everyone almost had a tear in their eye,” he noted, adding he met the pon- tiff twice in 1986 and again in 1987. He praised the Pope’s “warmness. It’s unbelievable. He’s always smiling. I think he’s smiling when he’s asleep. “I feel so sorry, he’s human, sick and old. He wanted to be in the best shape, but the body doesn’t respond. Inside, I think it’s very painful.” “He’s the greatest man we have on earth. To understand what he is, I swear to God, you have to see him and touch him. It’s some kind of gift only a few people on Earth have.” Mr. Fineczko planned to go see the Pope, who’s in Toronto for World Youth Days, yesterday and Sunday for the large outdoor mass in Downsview. Mr. Fineczko “escaped from Poland in 1986. You cannot get a visa for the West like you can today. The easi- est way was to run away, to go to Italy.” When he first arrived in Italy, he was sent to a refugee camp with others who had es- caped other communist coun- tries. He was eventually moved to a hotel in Rome, “a place where you could live and survive.” While there, he and other refugees were offered the op- portunity to pick the visa from one of three countries — Canada, the United States and Australia. “Of course, I chose Cana- da,” he said. After a year of waiting, he had an interview at the Cana- dian embassy. He arrived in Canada March 17, 1987. Two days after, a friend living in Ajax contacted Mr. Fineczko. Shortly after first coming to the community, he moved here. His wife Urszula, son Jakob and daughter Julia ar- rived later in ‘87, “two days before Christmas. It was the happiest day of my life,” Mr. Fineczko said. Two-and-a-half years after arriving in Canada, Mr. Fineczko and his wife opened the Ajax European Deli- catessen on Monarch Avenue, which remains open.

Effective Oct. 1, the current maximum fee of $30 per test will be raised to $35 on Drive Clean ve- hicle emissions tests. The maxi- mum re-test fee will rise from $15 to $17.50. The ministry says none of the money will go into the govern- ment’s wallet, but instead, will help fuel the eco-friendly engine of the Drive Clean program. Re- sults of new revenue, the ministry says, will include compensation to small businesses offering the tests, the government’s computer moni- toring systems, and an increase of on-road emission enforcers. Many critics suggest they are wary of the Drive Clean program’s proposed changes. “It would take 25 years, 25 tests, seven days a week to pay for the machine,” says Richard Alexander, an Oshawa auto and emissions testing centre employee. He says after the initial cost of the equipment (many small businesses have paid up to $80,000 for equip- ment), about $5,000 to $10,000 each year is spent on maintenance. “I’m all for a clean environment,” he explains, “but (the ministry) is going the wrong way about it.” Mr. Alexander says he doesn’t think the consumer should be the one to pay, especially when so many other factors are contributing to pollution from vehicles. He sug- gests a safety check, along with the emissions test, might be better. Leaking coolants and overheating engines are bad for the environ- ment, he says, and although most cars pass the emissions test, the number of cars on the road that wouldn’t pass safety tests is high. A Drive Clean equipment audi- tor, visiting Durham to assure area test facilities were up to standard, had no comment on the subject of increased costs. However, Ministry of Environ- ment spokesman Charles Ross says the increase is necessary, and the costs should encourage drivers to take car of their car’s exhaust systems. The Drive Clean program has been quite successful so far, he adds. It has had an 11.5 per cent re- duction in smog-causing emissions from vehicles in the Greater Toronto Area since the program began in 1999. He says smog pa- trols will be intensified in the fu- ture. To date, the smog patrol has conducted over 13,000 vehicle in- spections in the province, and is- sued more than 2,200 tickets. The patrols are not restricted to a cer- tain region, says Mr. Ross, and blitzes may take place in different areas with or without assistance from the Ontario Provincial Police or regional police. New revenues will allow the number of patrol staff to be raised from 20 to 30, the ministry says.

There are many simple ways to rejuvenate a garden and bring it back to life. Decorative accessories like trellis offer a refreshing visual element to a garden year-round. Trellis is a framework of plas- tic, metal or wooden bars used to support climbing plants and flow- ers. Available in a variety of styles, trellis can create different effects that complement a garden or land- scape. Try some of these stylish ideas to bring life to your garden, yard and home with trellis: • Dress up a dull wall or rail- ing by using trellis covered in roses or other vine-like plants. • Cover up outdoor imperfec- tions like damaged walls with trel- lis. • Add vertical structures like trellis to a backyard or garden to prominently display plants and flowers. • Climbing plants need sup- port to grow correctly. Help stimu- late vertical growth by using trellis. Gardeners are discovering a new line of plastic trellis by Tuff-Bilt® that is virtually maintenance-free and will withstand extreme out- door conditions. Made of tough, impact-resistant plastic, this trellis won’t crack, rot or fall apart like conventional wood trellis. Tuff-Bilt plastic trellis is available in traditional fan, ladder and diamond designs and plastic spacers are available to extend a trellis from the wall, allowing plants more room to grow and thrive.

Pool parties are always a big hit and what better way to spend a hot lazy afternoon in the spring, summer and fall. 2) CONVENIENCE Why spend money on a health club membership, when a swimming pool is within feet of your back door? A refreshing swim can take place any time of the day (no planning is required). Day or night, swimming can take place in your own private backyard. 3) PHYSICAL FITNESS Swimming provides a total aerobic workout on your body, mind and soul. In water your body weight is much less and swimming uses every muscle in your body. Less time will be spent watch- ing TV, and more time being physically active. After a sport activity a swim will also relax your muscles. Top 3 Benefits of Owning a Spa or Hot Tub 1) THERAPEUTIC The combination of turbidity and hot water cre- ates a totally relax- ing and soothing environment that helps take away the physical and mental aches and pains of the day. A hot water massage is just what the doctor ordered. 2) SOCIAL A spa brings family and friends together by providing a relaxing and soothing environ- ment where the lines of communi- cation can be re- opened. 3.CONVENIENCE No need to drive to the local spa or gym, slip into your very own private, hot water massage centre any time of the day or night, all year round.

Sweet smell of history Museum village church has vintage look thanks to Pickering man BY MARTIN DERBYSHIRE Staff Writer PICKERING — The 1853 church at Pickering Museum Village reeks of old pine — the smell of history. For the last year and a half, the museum and City have worked together restoring the building to its original state. Now that the structure is com- plete, some finishing touches are required inside the chapel. When some folks from the mu- seum asked Bill Gosse to build some replica pews he was glad to oblige. “When they asked me to do it I said ‘I’ll take a shot at it and do the best I can do’. I like doing it. I can’t just sit around and watch TV,” said the 72-year-old retired south Pickering resident and self-proclaimed jack of all trades and master of none. “If I could keep doing this till I was 150 I’d be OK. Then they can bury me.” Museum staff provided Mr. Gosse with a piece of an origi- nal pew and he went from there. “Some of the wood I used is 100 years old. The newest is still 10 years old,” he said. “Look, there are cracks in the wood, and knots. They add to the histo- ry, it’s all a part of it.” Working a minimum of 10 hours a day for a recent period of 10 days, Mr. Gosse put to- gether 15 replica pews with a bit of a modern twist — just to make them last a little longer. “These old ones had square head nails, and you can see from all the holes how many times they had to put them back to- gether,” he said while turning a new pew over. “I used cleats, they’re glued and screwed lock- ing them together, but they’re not visible, they’re just to hold it together, you can’t see it.” Dave Marlowe, education collections officer at the village, said Benjamin Moore would stain the pews for an authentic look. He noted a grant through a Benjamin Moore heritage fund- ing program enabled the muse- um to fund the project. “Some people on the board said it could be cheaper if we asked a manufacturer and we looked at what they had. They said they had this that was close and that that was close, but I said ‘hold on a minute, we don’t want it close’,” he explained. “We had the original and we asked Bill to recreate it.” Although the old chapel’s of- ficial dedication is planned for August, it has already been used for two weddings this summer. In fact, Mr. Marlowe said his niece was married there. He said everyone walking in the chapel takes a big sniff and smiles when they smell the old pine. “They just love it,” he added. Mr. Gosse noted his work with the museum doesn’t end with the pews. He’ll be back on the grounds redoing the floors of a few of the older buildings. When asked if he could pic- ture some future newspaper re- porter and a carpenter walking around Pickering Museum Vil- lage 150 years from now look- ing at a piece of one of his pews being used as a template to make new replicas Mr. Gosse smiled. “I guess they will be,” he said. “Just like we are now.” MARTIN DERBYSHIRE/ News Advertiser photo Bill Gosse, a self-proclaimed jack of all trades, moves out some of the original pews in the 1853 church at Pickering Museum Village. Mr. Gosse is creating replica pews to re- place the older ones, which are in disrepair. & 4 LOCATIONS TO SERVE YOU (905)576-7600 (905)259-5925 *Call for details SUMMER SALE CENTRAL AIR & FURNACE NO DUCTS!

Weekend reservations have been very strong this summer, reflecting a new consumer trend known as “lifestyle renting”, according to Enterprise Rent-A-Car, the largest rental car compa- ny in North America. “More and more, we’re finding that our customers are matching the automobile they drive to special occa- sions,” said Jill Lane, general manager and vice-president of Enterprise. She noted there is an exceptionally strong demand for SUV, pickup, and minivan rentals over long weekends. “Today, renting a set of wheels is not unlike renting a tuxedo for a wedding,” said Ms. Lane. A recent survey of 1,800 North American drivers con- firms this observation. The poll, conducted by Enter- prise, found people are rent- ing vehicles other than the ones they own to satisfy lifestyle needs, from a long weekend getaway, driving the kids to a weekend base- ball or soccer tournament, to celebrating a special night on the town. The survey confirmed the trend is being fuelled largely by drivers between 21 and 30 years of age who tend to view their vehicle as an ex- tension of themselves. These younger drivers are more likely than older motorists to say their vehicles do not al- ways meet their needs in terms of image, trunk space, seating capacity or reliabili- ty. — News Canada ‘Lifestyle car renting’ latest trend Renting a minivan or SUV for a weekend escape is a grow- ing trend among car owners. THE COUNTRY BEARS Starring Christopher Walken, Stephen Tobolowsky Directed by Peter Hastings The favourite musical group of 11-year-old Beary Barrington is The Country Bears - the greatest bear rock band in history. Even though the group broke up decades ago, Beary is their No. 1 fan and has listened to all their old records over and over again. The Bears have their differences now, and haven’t spoken to each other in years, but to Beary, nothing is more important than his quest to reunite the group for a benefit con- cert to save Country Bear Hall, the legendary venue where the band got its start.

Chelsea, is one of f ive trainers, who are responsible for tutoring our new staff on everything about DQ. I am enjoying the BLUEBERRY SHAKE she made as we speak. (I have to sample the product to write about it! It’s a tough job b ut someone has to do it!) What does a real BLUEBERRY SHAKE with our new ON TOP whipped topping swirled on top taste like and why whipped topping ? When I f irst started suggesting shakes topped with whipped topping to our staff one of them said she thought whipped topping on top of a shake wouldn’t sell. This prompted me to make a video for the staff to demonstrate my point. First I want to say that we DO NOT USE A MILK SHAKE MIX at our store. Yes the others want something fast, pre- made and they just open a spigot and voila a shake! Sorry not us. We make every shake from scratch. Yes it takes more time and I make no apologies for that. If my customers wanted it fast and pre-made then why are they lined up out the door of our store time and time again ? In the video I began by filling a DQ cup with ice cold milk to the fill line on the cup. This guarantees every shake is made the same. All our cups have fill lines on them. Next. I spiraled our patented world famous DQ soft serve into the cup. I then go over to our refrigerated bank of fruit containers (pineapple, strawberries, blueberries and raspberries) and ladle in a large helping of our blueberries. Now I demonstrate how you sip a shake topped with whipped topping. This got oohs and ahhs. I take my straw and push it slowly down through the whipped topping trapping a least a portion of it in the straw. Now I continue to push it down into the blueberry shake and I take a big sip. The blueberry shake is drawn up the straw forcing a rush of creamy whipped topping and blueberry shake into my mouth. I close my eyes and savour it. Then I sip all the residue out of the straw, push it slowly down into the whipped topping forcing more up into the straw and start the whole process over again! Oh Mama! BRING THIS AD AND GET YOUR SHAKE OR BLIZZARD TOPPED WITH “ON TOP” WHIPPED TOPPING FREE OF CHARGE. Good till July 31, 2002.

Feel the Powers again this weekend The following movies are de- buting at theatres this weekend. AUSTIN POWERS IN GOLDMEMBER Starring Mike Myers, Beyoncé Knowles Directed by Jay Roach He’s back, baby! It’s been three years since Austin Powers, that swinging in- ternational man of mystery, has faced his arch-nemesis, Dr. Evil. But after Dr. Evil and his ac- complice Mini Me escape from a maximum-security prison, Austin is called to action once more in this third instalment of the highly successful Austin Powers movie franchise. Teaming up with the mysteri- ous Goldmember, Dr. Evil hatches a time-travelling scheme to take over the world, one that involves the kidnapping of Nigel Powers, Austin’s beloved father and England’s most renowned spy. As he chases the villains through time, Austin visits 1975 and joins forces with his old flame, Foxxy Cleopatra, a street- wise and stylish detective. To- gether, Austin and Foxxy must find a way to save Nigel and stop Dr. Evil and Goldmember from their mischievous mayhem. Beyoncé Knowles and Mike Myers are feeling groovy in the lat- est instalment of the Austin Powers series, opening this week.

Shaun Israel and Renee Giroux, members of O’Brien Dance Centre Inc. in Ajax, won the overall high score for all age groups and categories at the high-profile event.

Ajax, Pickering competitors riding high at jumping qualifier Seventy-two saddle up for Central Region event AJAX —Riders with the Ajax and Pick- ering Pony Clubs galloped to strong results at the fourth and final Central Ontario Re- gion Show Jumping Qualifier last Sunday. Seventy-two riders from across Central Ontario competed at the qualifier, hosted by the Ajax Pony Club at Audley Road Stables. The selection of the Central Ontario team was based on results from this event and three other qualifiers. Those selected will compete against rid- ers from the Western Ontario and St. Lawrence-Ottawa Valley Regions at the Central Canadian Zone Championships, hosted by the Western Ontario Region Aug. 17 and 18. Dawn O’Neill, of the Ajax Pony Club, finished with two second-place finishes as well as a third-place effort aboard Rainbow Connection. She was declared the reserve champion in the starter division. Meanwhile, Samantha Elsenaar, also of Ajax, was the only entry in the pre-entry level A2. Nonetheless, she completed the event, aboard her horse Champagne Cock- tail, and was declared the division champi- on. Other results from the Ajax club: • Lauren Cappelletti finished second and ninth in the pre-entry ‘B’ division; • Laura Grant recorded a clear round and finished eighth in pre-entry ‘B’; • Erica Belanger finished fourth and fifth in pre-entry ‘B’; • Stephanie Lefebvre finished fifth, eighth and 10th in entry division; • Amy Caldwell finished fourth, eighth, and 10th in the starter division; and • Mallory Jones finished first, fifth and 10th in the starter division. Meanwhile, members of the Pickering Pony Club achieved the following results: • Stephanie Crawford finished ninth in pre-entry ‘B’; • Jennifer Graham finished eighth in be- ginner; • Ashley Milne finished sixth and also had two seventh-place efforts in starter; • Jessica Trinier finished second and ninth in entry; and • Elyse Marks placed sixth and had two 10th-place finishes in entry. PICKERING —The Pickering Power Tribute Communities under-13 girls’ rep soccer team used calm nerves and accurate shooting to its best advan- tage at the recent Peterborough tourna- ment, pulling out two victories in shootouts to secure the consolation championship. After an opening loss Saturday morn- ing to the eventual tournament champi- ons from Peterborough, Pickering pro- ceeded to go undefeated through its next five games. Playing Gloucester to a scoreless tie at the end of regulation time in the con- solation final, Pickering needed a shootout to finally subdue their oppo- nents by a 3-1 margin. Zoë Brownsell and Sarah McMenemy had the best scor- ing chances in regulation time. In the shootout, the team received outstanding goalkeeping from Larissa Eyitene and goals by Emily Henchey, Paige Murray and Danielle Douglas. Pickering advanced to the final by de- feating a hungry Georgetown team in an- other shootout after being tied 2-2 after regulation time. Erin Small put Pickering in front, but Georgetown stormed back and held a 2-1 lead late in the match when Douglas lofted a shot from approx- imately 40 yards over the outstretched arms of a helpless Georgetown keeper. The shootout was no less exciting with Small scoring on the last shot to clinch a 5-4 victory. Henchey and Dou- glas had scored on previous attempts. Pickering lost 3-0 to Peterborough in the opener, but rebounded in Game 2 to defeat Kanata 3-1 with tough defensive play and timely goals from Erin Small, with two, and Morgan Killham. Small’s second goal was the result of a great run and feed from Kim Dixon. Game 3 was against Oakville Storm who were hot after a surprise tie with Pe- terborough. Pickering came away with a well-deserved 1-1 tie. Small netted the lone marker. Pickering met Ajax United 2 and con- trolled the game throughout, winning 2- 0 in Game 4. This victory moved Picker- ing into the semifinals. Shannon Kennedy opened the scoring on a nice volley off a cross from the corner. The Ajax goalkeeper kept the contest close with stops on great shots by Killham and Barb Parker before Small notched an in- surance marker midway through the sec- ond half. The defence of Henchey, Shannon Manion, Nicole Crawford, Ashley Prasaud and Kristen Smyth played well all weekend. Lisa Kennedy, hobbled by an ankle injury, showed great determina- tion when trying to play through her in- jury and was the number-one cheerleader when forced to watch. Brian Henchey coaches the team, as- sisted by Jeff Kennedy and Dave Smyth. The manager is Debbie Kennedy.

Bran- don Pottle and Ryaan McMillan scored two touch- downs apiece, while Mike Amato converted two ma- jors. The previous week, the collegiate squad lost a close game to the Markham Raiders 17-14. Pottle scored both touchdowns and Amato converted the majors. Meanwhile, the Dolphins’ bantam team sent five play- ers and head coach Jim Bard- gett to Montreal as part of the COMFL all-stars (Team On- tario) to compete at the re- cent Wilson Challenge tour- nament.

Win, two top-five finishes highlight recent run of success for Red Sox midgets PICKERING —The Pickering Red Sox minor midget baseball team has been red hot of late in tournament action. The Sox played in the Burlington Major Midget Tier II Tournament; the Canada Day tournament in Hamilton, which fea- tured five U.S. teams; and the Hoosier Classic tournament in Fort Wayne, Indiana, where they were the only Canadian entry. Pickering captured the Burlington title, was a semifinalist in Hamilton and fifth in Indiana. At the Hoosier Classic July 12 to 14, the Red Sox finished round-robin play with a 3-1 record, which wasn’t good enough to advance to the semifinal round. Pickering faced the Kalamazoo (Michigan) Wombats, which also had a 3-1 record, in the fifth- place game. The contest was a tightly- played affair until the Red Sox broke it open in the third inning en route to a 7-2 victory. After a long bus ride to Fort Wayne Fri- day, the Sox played back-to-back games and defeated South County Baseball (Michigan) 9-1 and JB Yeager Post 199 (Ohio) 6-5. On Saturday, the Sox again played back-to-back contests and lost to the Lafayette Colts (Indiana) 9-2 and beat the New Haven Bulldogs (Indiana) 8-0. At the Hamilton Canada Day tourney, the Sox advanced to the semifinals before dropping a 15-9 decision to the Ottawa White Sox, the eventual champions. During round-robin play, the Red Sox finished first in their pool with a 2-1 record. Pickering defeated the Oakland Ti- tans (Farmington Hills, Michigan) 8-3 and the Brampton Royals 10-5. The only loss was to the Marauders (Sterling Heights, Michigan) 11-10. In Burlington, the midgets finished with a 2-1 record in preliminary play, advancing to the semifinals as a wild-card team. The Sox played the Whitby Chiefs in the semi- final, winning 10-0. The championship game was an exciting one, pitting the Sox against the Guelph Royals. Guelph took an early lead, but Pickering fought back and eventually won 13-6. During the round-robin portion of the tournament, the Red Sox defeated the Au- rora and Dundas teams. Their only defeat came at the hands of the host Burlington Bulls, 2-1. Team members are Ellis Bowen, Marc DiRosa, Matt D’Souza, Daniel Gennuso, Jason George, Jordan Hagen, Brad Leufkens, David Molinski, Robert Morris, Russell Skeete, Eron Thompson, Chris Winterson and Ryan Yakura.

A/P PAGE 34 NEWS ADVERTISER, FRIDAY EDITION, July 26, 2002 Visit Us On the Internet: www.durhamregion.com Warriors emerge unscathed from Cup play Under-12 girls’squad advances to next month’s Ontario Cup semifinals AJAX —The Ajax Warriors Menkes Development Ontario Power Generation — Pickering Nuclear girls’ under-12 soccer team sailed through the round-robin portion of the Ontario Cup to advance to the next round of this prestigious tournament. The Warriors finished the weekend in Newmarket with a 4-0 record to capture their division. The under-12s received a bye into the semifinal game Aug. 24 at Oshawa Civic Stadium and will meet the winner of the Oakville Demons-Pickering Power matchup. Ajax dominated play in each of its four games, attacking aggressively at every opportunity, clearing balls and not letting the other team set up plays. Ajax started quickly against the Stoney Creek-Salfleet Wildones, with Sarah Taylor one-timing a corner kick from Tina Romagnuolo less than five minutes into the match. Minutes later,Amanda Morris was set up by Niki Guerriero and the Warriors were up 2-0. Taylor added her second goal of the game in the second half, and Romagnuolo corralled a rebound off the crossbar to round off the scoring and seal the 4-0 win. Against the North Mississauga Cougars, Kayla DeSouza’s through ball put Morris into the clear and she placed a low shot to the corner. Jade West outran the Cougar defend- ers to score on a breakaway and put Ajax up by two. The final score was 2-1. The Oakville Impact couldn’t contend with the Warriors’ speed in Game 3. West scored Ajax’s first two goals, the first set up by Romagnuolo; the second on a great play started by defender Jenna Read. Jody McDonald added the last goal when she deflected a hard shot by Natasha Grouios into the open side of the net. The final game was the closest, with Ajax winning 1-0 over the Newmarket York United Vipers on Morris’s penalty kick in the second half. The Warriors dominated the play but were stymied by good goaltending, a shot off the goalpost, and chances that went just wide. Goalkeeper Taylor Childs was not tested severely during the weekend but was ready when called upon. Defenders Ashley Brifoglio, Jessica Leroux, Alicia Guzzo, Jasmin White and Read made sure that opponents could not get through to the net. Midfielders Kelsi Landry, Romagnuolo, DeSouza, McDonald and Grouios pounced on all balls in the neutral area, before feeding passes to their teammates. 557 KINGSTON RD., PICKERING THE LARGEST TOYOTA DEALER IN DURHAM!
