Moraine land swap questioned Pickering councillors say Seaton lands in need of protection too BY MARTIN DERBYSHIRE Staff Writer PICKERING —While the Province may be swapping pri- vately held environmentally sensi- tive land on the Oak Ridges Moraine for land in north Picker- ing, concerns abound they may be doing so without regard for the en- vironment here. As part of a plan to protect the moraine, the Province has report- edly begun a land appraisal process to swap property on the moraine in Richmond Hill for the provincially owned Seaton lands in Pickering, an area some say is just as much in need of protection. “The Seaton lands are equally as environmentally sensitive as the Oak Ridges Moraine, and I hope there will be a full public consulta- tion if development is to proceed,” said David Steele, president of Pickering Ajax Citizens Together (PACT) for the Environment, adding the City should take into account the previous work and en- vironmental studies done in regard to the lands. Ward 1 Regional Councillor Maurice Brenner added the Province is just “swapping envi- ronmentally sensitive for environ- mentally sensitive” and “trading their headache” to Pickering. He believes the move, which has the Province trading land with a consortium of Richmond Hill de- velopers currently facing hearings before the Ontario Municipal Board (OMB), will send the devel- opers right back where they started should the City refuse to approve City bank robber ‘thankful’ for stolen cash PICKERING —Police are looking for a man after the CIBC branch at 376 Kingston Rd. was robbed Tuesday afternoon. Around 3:20 p.m. Oct. 30, a man approached one of the tellers and demanded money. After the teller gave the man a quantity of cash he said ‘thanks’ and fled on foot. No one was hurt, although the teller believes there may have been a gun in his coat pocket. The suspect is white, in his early 20s, 5-foot-10, with a small build and dark or brown hair with stubble on his face. He was wear- ing a navy blue fishing hat with a Molson Canadian logo on it, a blue Columbia jacket with differ- ent colour sleeves and blue or black jeans.

A mother’s lament The mother of Ralph Hadley claimed she attempted to en- force the strict bail conditions imposed on him by the courts during marital difficulties with his wife, Gillian, a coroner’s in- quest heard Wednesday. Christina Hadley took the stand for most of the day in Toronto and spoke of her son’s jailhouse promises to abide by court-imposed conditions to stay away from his estranged wife in the months and weeks leading up to her murder.

But last week,the Durham District School Board busi- ness superintendent gave a gloomy economic forecast as trustees approved a frame- work for making substantial cuts to the 2002/03 budget. “Today, in my view, we’re in a recession and it’s not just North America-based,” Mr. Trbovich told trustees, pre- dicting “difficult” economic times in Ontario for the next two or three years. He told the board’s educa- tion finance committee that means the government will be taking in less revenue, and in turn, will have to cut trans- fer payments to school boards. Mr. Trbovich be- lieves the board will not get any new money from the Province next spring, and in fact will lose $2 million in the intensive support amount funding for special-education students at the end of August next year. There’s also a 2.3-per cent raise in employee salaries that kicks in next September at a cost of $6.7 million. And in a report to trustees Mr. Tr- bovich noted inflationary costs continue to be borne by boards because provincial funding has not kept pace with higher costs for text- books and other essentials. Add it up and trustees are faced with a formidable task. “We have roughly $7.2 million to cut and as much as $9 million if we lose that $2 million subsidization for spe- cial education,” Mr. Trbovich told committee members. In his report, he said the amount could actually be over $10 million. By provincial legislation, he pointed out, neither a school board nor the Province itself is allowed to knowingly pass a deficit bud- get. Trustees approved a three- part process to develop a bud- get reduction plan. They will first review reserves to see what one-time funding is available. And before consid- ering cuts to schools and pro- grams, a detailed review of central administration spend- ing, anything that does not di- rectly affect the classroom, will take place. Finally, the board will review its school and program funding to en- sure they are in synch with the provincial funding model. The board also approved four guiding principles, vow- ing to “maintain at the provincial funding model levels or higher”, funding to schools, classrooms and spe- cial-education programs. Trustees also committed to pay its employees at the provincial average. Mr. Trbovich said the board’s reserves will already be seriously depleted after this year’s budget, leaving only about $5 million trustees could play with next year. But he cautioned against tap- ping reserves. In addition, he advised trustees not to play “a game of chicken” with the govern- ment by purposely putting it- self in dire financial straits to highlight the need for more money. In an interview Mr. Trbovich said central admin- istration areas that could be cut include the travel and of- fice equipment budgets. Also, the board could simply not replace employees who leave and cuts could be made to the maintenance budget. “I’ll meet with my col- leagues and talk about what area we want to bring up first,” he said. Inevitably, said Mr. Tr- bovich, because central ad- ministration supports the en- tire system, the cuts “will hurt schools”.

A news release from Mayor Wayne Arthurs said development in Seaton can only occur in accordance with the City’s Official Plan, which allows for the ulti- mate development of an urban community of up to 90,000 people, more than Pickering’s current popula- tion of 88,000. However, the area is cur- rently identified as the Seaton Urban Study Area and any development is sub- ject to the completion of a planning study. In an interview Thursday, Mayor Arthurs said the City has been planning for devel- opment of that area for some time, but he also had a warn- ing. “In their negotiations with the Province, the devel- opers should be aware there is some infrastructure re- quired and there are costs re- lated which will not be as- sumed by the municipality,” he said. “We are planning for and preparing for development (in Seaton) but, in the fash- ion the municipality wants, with natural growth. We wouldn’t support any sud- den or rapid-fire growth.” Glenn De Baermaeker, president of Save the Rouge Valley System, said he is thankful for the work local MPPs have done to protect the moraine and although the swap for Seaton would not be his first choice, he is happy with the move. “This is a positive step forward for the Oak Ridges Moraine and the environ- ment in general,” he said.

To the editor: I attended the Oct. 24 Pickering Library Board meeting and was happy to witness the unanimous approval of the motion to allow poppy boxes at branches. I was very disappointed with the board’s initial decision not to allow pop- pies in the branches and spoke with library board chairman Bill Boyes by phone. I am sure a great deal of thought went into the decision but sometimes a decision proves to be an error upon its receipt by the peo- ple of our city. In this instance, your deci- sion was met with disapproval far beyond our city limits. However, I am disappointed there was not an expression of any regret. My inter- pretation of the change was that fear of in- timidation or ambition was behind each member who voted ‘no’ originally. Why was there not a hint of an apology for em- barrassing, angering, and slighting so many individuals? A lot of damage control was done to counter the initial decision. A lot of people at the Oct. 24 meeting kindly and politely commented the board must not have in- tended to hit such a nerve. There was a lot of hope common sense would prevail and the decision would be reversed. There were also a lot of very angry peo- ple who were urged to take a moment be- fore speaking. Yes, the board did give those in attendance a chance to comment, but had I not counted to 10, I would prob- ably have vented very unkindly to the board for its shameful performance. I ask: is it politically incorrect to say you’re sorry? Ronald E.

Editorial &OPINIONS PICKERING NEWS ADVERTISER NOVEMBER 2, 2001 In the wake of the Sept. 11 terror- ist attacks in the United States, every- body and their dog seems to have an opinion. I’m no exception. President George W. Bush, Pope John Paul II and I seem to be in agreement some response is reasonable, justified and necessary. Prime Minister Jean Chrétien even seems to be onside after spending a few astonishing weeks carefully con- sidering which way the wind was blowing. The presumed objectives of the Sept. 11 attacks have, to some de- gree, been realized. They gained the world’s attention. They spread fear. They emotionally and economically staggered not only the United States, but also much of the world. They cannot go unanswered. However, I find myself slack- jawed with disbelief watching cover- age of demonstrations that advocate understanding and forgiveness, and decry the use of military force to root out terrorist elements in Afghanistan and elsewhere. Have these folks col- lectively bumped their heads? Fresh terrorist threats have been broadcast on the Arab language Al Jazeera, and carried on international television. It also appears anthrax was in the mail even before the dust had settled in New York City. There are apologists who suggest these attacks are an act of desperation by those who feel threatened and mar- ginalized by American foreign policy. I submit recent examples of Taliban and al-Qaida policy, both foreign and domestic, leave much to be desired. There is no room for compromise or negotiation with this enemy. There is no common ground. Suicide attackers, whether target- ing American skyscrapers, Israeli bus shelters, Russian military installations in Chechnya, or Sri Lankan politi- cians, are a squirrelly, screwed-up bunch. For those who would contem- plate the massacre of others as a means of martyrdom and an opportu- nity to meet their God, I suggest soci- ety should do its level best to accom- modate them in the latter portion of their plan. For those who would groom impressionable youth of few prospects to fill the role of the suicide attacker, they should be dispatched as well. The U.S. has displayed a remark- able patience and poise in the days following the attacks and has cobbled together an impressive, if fragile, coalition against terrorism. I pray it holds. Far too many old warriors laid down their lives in the past so we might live free from fear. With Re- membrance Day around the corner, and Canadian troops heading over- seas, it is no time for half measures. Editorial e-mail responses to shouston@durhamregion.com Letters to the editor e-mail responses to shouston@durhamregion.com Now’s not the time for half measures With continuous threat around us, we must fight terrorists with all we have Faced with the demands of developers, those generous con- tributors to the Tory government, and 905 ‘True Blue’ Tory vot- ers, Municipal Affairs Minister Chris Hodgson did the only thing he could. On the question of development of the Oak Ridges Moraine, Mr. Hodgson made like King Solomon. He compromised. The minister said ‘No’ to development on the moraine itself, making dozens of municipalities and the people who live in them very happy. To avoid enraging the developers who bought land to build on the moraine, he offered a swap that would see building now take place in Seaton, north of Pickering. The swap could see Pickering eventually bulge to nearly 200,000 from its current population of 90,000. Mr. Hodgson’s machinations won’t please everybody — no compromise ever does — but it seems like it’s the very best he could have done in the situation. The deal avoids a bitter and nasty battle at the Ontario Mu- nicipal Board over a huge housing development planned in Rich- mond Hill. The decision in that OMB case would have set the table for all future proposals on the moraine. With this latest de- cision, alternatives have been made available for development. What’s best of all is that the Seaton land in north Pickering was already planned for housing developments. So nothing will be lost by switching moraine proposals to Seaton. The Tories prove they haven’t lost the political skills that earned them two straight majority governments. Wary of upset- ting their hard-core support in the 905 core, they’ve avoided forced municipal amalgamations and have now sidestepped ac- cusations they are insensitive to the demands for no development on the moraine. Mr. Hodgson’s earlier decision to buy time with a six-month freeze on moraine development, to listen to all sides involved in the controversy and to come out the other end with a sensible, well-considered and politically astute decision speaks well of his aspirations to be Tory leader and our next premier. He may have helped secure many needed seats if the Tories are to make it three in a row in a few years time. The deal also commits the Province to putting $75 million into a parkland protection fund. The Province will be looking for sup- port from the federal government as well. The best news about the decision is that it will contain the urban sprawl rolling north from Toronto. A green barrier, which contains the headwaters that flow south to Lake Ontario, is what we all need to maintain the health of the GTA. Well done, Mr. Hodgson.

We had no rea- son not to believe him,” Mrs. Hadley said Wednesday. Under the terms of his release Ralph Hadley was not to commu- nicate with his estranged wife, Gillian, nor go near her Pickering home, court heard. “We explained what the rules were... We took them very seri- ously... We felt it was for Ralph’s protection,” Mrs. Hadley testi- fied. It wasn’t enough to protect Gillian. Court has heard on June 20, 2000 Ralph broke into her Hillcrest Road bungalow, chased her into the street, dragged her back inside and shot her in the head. He then took his own life. The inquest is examining the murder-suicide and issues sur- rounding domestic violence. Court was told Mrs. Hadley and her husband Gerald posted bail for their son after he was charged Feb. 25, 2000 with crim- inally harassing Gillian and breaching an undertaking with police to stay away from her and the home. At the time, Ralph Hadley was already facing a charge of domes- tic assault — after slapping Gillian one month earlier — and for breach of a court order. The parents visited Ralph at Whitby Jail, where he was held for three days prior to his Feb. 28 bail hearing. During the visit Ralph promised he would abide by any terms set down by the court if released to their custody. The terms included he not leave his parents’ Scarborough residence unless in their company or for attending work, not possess a cellphone and stay out of Pick- ering. He was also barred from pos- sessing a firearm and using the telephone, except for work pur- poses or emergencies, court has been told. Mr. and Mrs. Hadley secured their son’s release by guarantee- ing $5,000 and as his court-ap- proved sureties — civilian jailers — were tasked with ensuring he did not violate his conditions and that he show up for court dates. Mrs. Hadley said they moni- tored Ralph by not allowing him to use his car and by driving him to and from his workplace at Canada Post in Scarborough. “He wasn’t happy. He would get frustrated,” his mother told the inquest. In June the criminal case was close to a conclusion, Mrs. Hadley said, and Ralph was fear- ful he could be headed back to Whitby Jail. He described jail as a “horri- ble” place and did not want to go back, she said. “Ralph thought he would probably be going back to jail. I think he just expected the worst — and that was the worst,” she testified. Court heard Ralph and Gillian’s marriage began falling apart after he was charged in 1999 with abusing her severely disabled son from a first mar- riage. In January 2000 he caught her having sex with another man, which led to the slapping incident and assault charge, and his mov- ing in with his parents. “He was very hurt. He said he felt betrayed,” Mrs. Hadley told the court. She said Ralph still hoped rec- onciliation was possible. “He hadn’t really come to terms with the fact things were finished... He wanted desperately to talk to Gill so they could work something out, but that wasn’t happening.” Things went from bad to worse. Near the end, as the prospect of a jail sentence for Ralph loomed, Mrs. Hadley said she tried to lift her son’s spirits. “He didn’t really feel there was a light at the end of the tun- nel. “He just felt doors had closed and closed and closed and the light was getting darker.” Mrs. Hadley said Ralph felt he was the “victim of circumstance”. In the weeks before the mur- der-suicide she said he seemed less upset and angry and appeared to have finally “come to grips” the marriage was over. “In hindsight, I think those (last) two weeks he was at the bottom and he had probably made a decision... He was gone,” she said. The Sunday before the deaths was Ralph’s first Father’s Day and the couple’s one-year-old son, Chase, spent the weekend visiting. Mrs. Hadley said Ralph was extremely emotional and cried when it was time for Chase to re- turn home. “Ralph did not want to let him go,” she said. The morning of the shootings she said she received a call at work from a relative and was told “Ralph was in the house with Gill” and something was happen- ing. On her way to Gillian’s resi- dence Mrs. Hadley said she de- cided she was going to pull her son’s bail. “This was not the first time we were told Ralph was not where he was supposed to be,” she said. When she arrived a short time later, there was yellow police tape surrounding the home, she said. Mrs. Hadley said she never heard Ralph or her husband say words to the effect that Gillian “deserves a bullet to the head”, as her nephew, Gordon Baines, has testified they said. Mr. Hadley also denied mak- ing the comments in testimony Wednesday. Notes and flowers dropped off at the West Shore house in Pickering following the murder of Gillian Hadley grew quickly in the days after the crime. The inquest into her murder and the subsequent sui- cide by her estranged husband, Ralph, continues in Toronto.

The donation to the Oak Ridges Moraine Land Trust (ORMLT) is consid- ered to be the largest ever from a private landowner on the moraine, and is estimated at nearly $1.7 million. William Wilder, part owner of Creemore Springs Brewery and a former top execu- tive at Wood Gundy, Gulf Canada and Con- sumers’ Gas Company, said he made the contribution because he wanted to protect his pasture and forest lands from ever be- coming a gravel pit, golf course or residen- tial development. “I’m opposed to urban sprawl and I’m opposed particularly to urban sprawl on the Oak Ridges Moraine,” Mr. Wilder, who is also president of the Durham Conservation Authority, said a news conference last Fri- day. “I think urban sprawl is not good for the country and the Greater Toronto Area in particular because it costs $2 billion in in- frastructure and $2 billion in lost time (with) people commuting back and forth.” Mr. Wilder’s seven parcels of land are located primarily between Sideline 8 and Sideline 14 in north Pickering. About 10 different tributaries of the Duffins Creek emanate from his properties and 40 per cent of the lands are covered with forest. Mr. Wilder, 81, works in Toronto but spends weekends on his property, which he first started to compile in 1957 and has dubbed, ‘Silo Hill Farms’. He currently has about 500 head of cattle on the farm. Mr. Wilder’s land donation was made in the form of an easement, which means he still retains control of the properties but gives up any potential to develop the lands in the future. The protective easement also lasts in perpetuity, therefore no future owner nor any local council can change the zoning of the property from its current agricultural and open space designation. Under the federal government’s ecologi- cal gifts program, Mr. Wilder will also re- ceive an enhanced tax receipt for donating the easement. Mr. Wilder said he has been working on the legal aspects of the ease- ment with the ORMLT since last year, and said he is not alone. Two former federal Liberal cabinet ministers, friends of Mr. Wilder, are considering donating easements on their Uxbridge properties to the TRCA, Mr. Wilder said. He suggested other landowners on the moraine should do the same. “I think (residents) would be wise to give easements if they want to preserve the way of life up here,” Mr. Wilder said. Don Prince, land chairman for the ORMLT, said there has been a “groundswell of private landowners” who are considering easements or outright dona- tions in the past year. He said the easements will go a long way towards the land trust and the conservation authority’s combined goal of protecting much of the headwater lands located on the moraine.

The federal department has issued an initial response to the Transportation Safety Board, which last week an- nounced findings of an investigation into a 1999 Bowmanville tractor-trail- er/double train crash. Among the TSB’s three recommen- dations was a call to examine all private and farm crossings to look at closing or consolidating such crossings, and up- grading those remaining to increase safety. Farmers and other property own- ers whose land transverses railway tracks have traditionally had the right to such private crossings, maintained by the railway for use by the landowner. The south Clarington crossing, locat- ed between Holt and Waverley roads, where the Nov. 23, 1999 accident oc- curred, has been closed since December 1999. There are about 200 such cross- ings on the rail corridor between Toron- to and Montreal. The TSB findings were submitted to Transport Canada, which has 90 days to respond fully. However, the federal department has is- sued a preliminary response. “We agree with the intent of the rec- ommendations, and have taken steps al- ready to address the safety deficiencies they’ve pointed out,” says Transport Canada spokesman Brian McGregor. According to Transport Canada, spe- cific crossings are always being studied to help identify and address safety con- cerns, and that will continue. “There’s no specific plan (to exam- ine all such crossings) in place. Certain- ly the department is committed to that, but how that’ll unfold, we haven’t deter- mined,” says Mr. McGregor. A full response will be issued within 90 days, says Mr. McGregor. Eleven people suffered minor injuries in the ac- cident, which happened when the trac- tor-trailer driver, who was apparently lost,attempted to turn his rig around and got struck on a south Clarington farm crossing. The truck was struck by both a freight train and a passenger train. Install now, pay later with low monthly payments OAC Save up to 40% on your gas bill!

It’s also knowing what to do and not pan- icking while doing it. Harrison Tim was all of those things. In doing so, he saved his family from tragedy earlier this year. For his efforts, Harrison, eight, will receive a fire safety action award from the Ontario Fire Marshal’s Public Fire Safety Council. The annual award recognizes young people whose actions prevented or minimized injury or death from fire. Around 2 p.m. on Saturday, Feb. 17, Harri- son was at home with his father Harry and younger brother Hunter. “My dad was burning wood and a spark flew out, up the chimney, through my room and into the attic. I saw the fire and I went downstairs and told my dad,” recalled Harri- son. “I got everyone out of the house and my dad called 911. There were tonnes of fire trucks on the way. We went to our neighbours. “I ran down and said ‘dad, the whole house is so smoky. I can smell smoke. Is it from downstairs?’. He checked the attic and he said there was a big huge fireball or something like that. My mom (Heather) came back and she was wondering why all the fire trucks were at our house.” The fire heavily damaged the Hiley Avenue house and forced the family out until June 1. In between, they stayed at a Holiday Inn and an apartment on The Esplanade (near the Pickering Town Centre). “I’m very happy to get the award,” Harri- son said. “I want to thank the firefighters for saving my house from burning down.” Mrs. Tim praised her son for not panicking when he saw the smoke. It’s a skill, he said, that came from firefighters. “When they came to my school and when they came to my house once,” he noted. A faulty installation of a factory-built chimney caused the fire, Mrs. Tim said. It was missing a flange and a spark flew out. The spark “went into the wall, the wall right beside Harrison’s closet. The whole attic was on fire,” Mrs. Tim said. Hunter, two at the time, was having a nap in the room beside Harrison’s when the fire started. “It’s a good thing Harrison reacted as quickly as he did, because it spread very quickly,” Mrs. Tim noted, adding she couldn’t say enough positives about the actions of Ajax firefighters. When asked if he thinks he’s a hero, Harri- son said, “Yeah. I’m proud I didn’t panic. I’m very proud of myself.” Firefighters were able to save the huge Toronto Maple Leafs fan’s prized Mats Sundin jersey from his room, which he bought with his own money, and a hockey stick signed by Doug Gilmour. “He basically lost everything,” Mrs. Tim said. “Almost,” Harrison added. In addition to Harrison, 32 other people will receive awards on Nov. 8 at a ceremony in Toronto. At the time of the fire, Harrison was in Grade 2 at Lincoln Avenue Public School and his teacher was Jim Markovski. He’ll join the Tims at the ceremony, as will Thom Evered, Ajax’s chief fire prevention officer. Mrs. Tim said Mr. Markovski kept life as normal as possible for Harrison. “We can’t thank him enough for all the support he gave him. He kept Harrison on a regular routine. Without him, we wouldn’t know what to do.” A/P PAGE 10 NEWS ADVERTISER, FRIDAY EDITION, November 2, 2001 Ajax boy honoured for heroism in face of danger Please recycle your News Advertiser!Harrison Tim is being honoured Nov. 8 for staying cool and notifying his father of a fire in their house last February. Creating innovative and unique designs in truly outstanding communities that meet the needs of today’s f amilies has earned John Boddy Homes your stamp of approval in the Readers Choice Awards for the f ifth consecutive year. John Boddy has been involved in the construction of thousands of homes throughout Ontario since 1955, and has been a leader among development companies in the Ajax and Pickering area since 1984. In that time, John Boddy Homes has earned a reputation as an accomplished builder of fine residential communities, including the award-winning 10,000-acre Bridlewood Community developed in the 1960s and 1970s in Scarborough, and the Forestbrook Community at Fairport Road and Finch Avenue in Pickering, developed and built in the 1980s. They are now developing and building Eagle Ridge on the Green, a master-planned, golf course- inspired community in Ajax, on Elizabeth Street just north of Kingston Road. It will be home to more than a thousand families, where young and old can experience nature to the fullest while enjoying all the conveniences of a modern lifestyle. Discover a variety of designs, including traditional two-storey homes, bungalows, side splits and back splits in a wide range of sizes. A limited number of 65-foot lots that back onto the Riverside Golf Course - some extra deep and heavily-treed - have been released, along with 55-foot lots across the street from the golf course. An eight-acre park located in the heart of the community has been completed. It features a playground, tennis courts and baseball diamonds. Direct access to beautiful conservation lands highlighted by Duffin’s Creek offers you a chance to enjoy fishing, hiking, bicycling and leisurely nature walks. A local high school, separate school and arena are within walking distance of the community. Two churches are part of the development, and local shops and eateries can be found in the neighbouring Pickering Village. Attention to detail and innovation in housing sets John Boddy Homes apart from other builders and developers, believes vice-president Ed Boddy. He points to lush landscaping, custom street lamps and ornate street signage that further enhance the Eagle Ridge community. Mr. Boddy is proud of his homes that offer “a little extra flair”. John Boddy Homes uses a wide range of exterior materials, such as stone and wrought iron, to create extraordinary facades and inviting streetscapes. You’ll also f ind palladian-style windows, turrets, stone window surrounds, double door entries and country-style verandahs on many homes. Surprising interior features include cathedral ceilings, unique octagonal skylights, soaring 18-foot vaulted ceilings, lavish ensuite baths, grand centre halls, gourmet kitchens and more. The commitment to meeting the needs of today’s families begins with the initial land purchase that allows John Boddy Homes to put its stamp on its communities, says Mr. Boddy. The long tenure of permanent staff, including experienced management, in-house architect, supervisors, planners, marketing and sales personnel is a true testament to the company’s dedication to the home building industry.

The organization is heading into every elementary school across Durham the week of April 22 to 26, 2002 as a part of its economics of staying in school (ESIS) program, designed to help students develop a positive attitude toward education, while also recognizing the financial costs of living on their own. “We’re very excited about this initiative,” said Donna Raetsen Kemp, president and chief executive officer. “It encourages students to reach their own conclusions about the ad- vantages of continuing their educa- tion and also provides them with an important reality check.” The program will introduce four central lessons to the close to 10,000 Grade 8 students during the week: Success and understanding the rela- tionship between education and achieving personal goals; indepen- dence and identifying the different financial costs of independence in contemporary life; employment, al- lowing students to investigate avail- able careers and the education re- quired to match up with personal goals and lifestyle expectations; and futures, teaching students to develop the necessary skills for job inter- views, reviewing job applications and resume writing. Over 400 volunteers from the business, health and general commu- nities in Durham will bring the pro- gram to the classroom and Junior Achievement is currently seeking major sponsors to invest in ESIS week. Gary Polonsky, Durham College president and honorary chairman of ESIS week, said the program has value to both students and the com- munity as a whole. “When a young person makes a choice to drop out of school there are consequences — the financial cost to our society and, more impor- tantly, the negative impact on his or her current and eventual family,” he said. “The ESIS program can help young people to determine what suc- cess means to them and provide guidance on how to achieve it.” For more information on this or other programs offered by Junior Achievement, call Terri Milburn, in- school programs and communica- tions co-ordinator, at 905-432-2492, ext. 203.

A family is leaving the shelter soon to begin a new life in a new home. And along with them will go a care package of staples such as non-perish- able food and cleaning products cour- tesy of ‘bonus’funding Durham Region received for meeting provincial Ontario Works targets. The YWCA’s ‘movin’on’program is just one of more than a dozen to receive funding that the Region disperses under the provincial community participation bonus funds program. Durham received more than $550,000 for surpassing placement targets of matching Ontario Works clients in more than 1,200 work programs with non-profit agencies in Durham Region, said Paul Cloutier, in- come support director for Durham Re- gion. The community participation bonus funds “allow us to support community organizations and provide services that wouldn’t exist without them”, said Brock Regional Councillor Larry O’- Connor, who is the Durham health and social services committee chair- man. About $130,000 of the money has already been spent on pro- grams and staffing, while Durham council recently approved spending the re- maining funds on programs provid- ing everything from seniors’ den- tal care to a school bus service for kids temporarily living in hostels. The bonus funds provide cru- cial support sys- tems to people in Durham Region such as YWCA clients, agreed Eva Blythe, the Y’s executive di- rector. The movin’ on program, for ex- ample, helps women and chil- dren make the transition from the shelter to indepen- dent living, she said. “There is so much you need to buy when you move from tempo- rary to permanent housing,” she said. “This is a way of us helping women literally move on with their lives. This way whatev- er money they have for start-up can be used for start-up instead of on the items in these boxes.” The Region has approved $15,600 for the program. The YWCA will also receive $3,500 for a transportation program that allows children living at the temporary shelter to continue attending their home school regardless of where in the region they come from. Some families staying at the shelter come from as far as Pickering, noted Ms. Blythe, who said the school bus funding allows the children to con- tinue in the stable, supportive environ- ment they are familiar with during the day instead of experiencing yet another change while they are homeless. “The impact on the families is very positive,” said Coun. O’Connor. “We’ve got to be a little creative offering pro- grams to families in need.” Other programs to benefit include Cornerstone Community Association, which will use the money for care pack- ages for people relocating; and the den- tal health initiative for seniors unable to pay for care. Infant development, child care and a drop-in centre for the home- less also received funding.

Whether it’s two weeks at the cot- tage to explore the autumn colours or a trip across Canada, pictures can help you remember the season’s greatest moments. “Many vacations and trips take you to new and exciting places so it’s important to take it all in while you’re there,” said Candace Quick, professional photographer. “But, no matter where you decide to spend your vacation, taking great pho- tographs will help save those special memories for years to come.” Ms. Quick offers some tips to en- sure lasting memories of your vaca- tion: • Before you leave, confirm you have everything you’ll need to take perfect pictures — camera, carrying bag, film, lens cleaner, and extra batteries. It’s easy to pick things up on the road, but picture-taking will be stress-free if you’ve got it all from the start; • General rule of thumb — shoot one roll of film every two days; • Travel photos should tell a story of your visit. Take pictures of every- thing: friends, family, landscapes, historical and unusual buildings, and local areas of interest; • Look for a variety of different angles when capturing interesting architecture and landscapes; • Choose the right film — the type of light you’re shooting in will depend on the type of film and speed. Use a higher speed film, such as ISO 400, when taking photos in- door or evening photos. Use a lower speed film, such as ISO 100, on bright, sunny days; and • Compose before you shoot — candid shots are always fun, but composing a shot will make it that much memorable. Composition is a matter of personal taste, so look at what you want to shoot and deter- mine whether the lighting, back- ground, subjects and the overall bal- ance is what you are trying to achieve. — News Canada Making simple preparations before you click the shutter will help ensure your vacation photos capture important family memories. Here are some quick tips for cor- recting the most common photo-tak- ing problems: Reducing red-eye: • Turn on all the lights in a room. Bright lights shrink the pupils of the subject’s eyes; and • Some compact cameras have a red-eye reduction mode. Special red-eye reduction pens are also available to retouch a developed photograph. Blurry or out of focus: • Use a faster film, such as ISO 400, and hold your camera steady with both hands and squeeze the shutter button gently. Poor colour quality: • Do not leave your unused film or loaded camera in direct sunlight or any place that it will be exposed to high temperatures; • Check the expiry date of your film prior to loading and develop ex- posed film promptly; and • Use only top-quality photo fin- ishing services, to ensure top-quality colour and sharpness in each pic- ture. — News Canada Timely tips for your snapshots Hand-picked First Choice Vacation Club packages leave nothing to chance.

Williams Communication Services Limited Following are the new movies re- leases being screened at cinemas in Ajax and Pickering this weekend: MONSTERS INC. Animated. Starring the voices of John Good- man, Billy Crystal, James Coburn, Jennifer Tilly, Steve Buscemi, Mary Gibbs, John Ratzenberger, Bob Pe- terson, Frank Oz, and Bonnie Hunt. Directed by Peter Docter. Set in Monstropolis, a thriving com- pany town where monsters of all shapes and sizes reside, the film follows the hi- larious misadventures of James P. Sulli- van (known to all as ‘Sulley’) and his best friend, roommate, and co-worker, Mike Wazowski. Both work at Mon- sters, Inc., the largest scream-process- ing factory in the monster world, and Sulley is the top kid ‘scarer’ and Mike is his enthusiastic ‘scare assistant’. The main power source in the monster world is the collected screams of human children. At Monsters, Inc., an elite team of ‘scarers’ is responsible for gathering precious natural resources. Complicat- ing matters is the fact monsters believe human children to be toxic and direct contact with them is forbidden. When a little girl named Boo accidentally fol- lows Sulley back into his world, he finds his career in jeopardy and his life in utter chaos. (Cineplex-Odeon Ajax 10 Cinemas, Famous Players Pickering 8 Cinemas - Pickering Town Centre). THE ONE Starring Jet Li, Kane Picoy, Carla Guggino, Jason Cairns, Autumn Macintosh, Delroy Lindo. Directed by James Wong. Alternate life waves exist in alter- nate universes. Every agent at the Mul- tiverse Bureau of Investigation accepts and upholds this fact. Every agent, that is, but former Mul- tiverse investigator Gabriel Yulaw. Yulaw has traversed 123 universes hunting down and destroying his own alternate life forces. As he slays each one, his remaining alter egos absorb the power and strength of those other life forces, gaining superhuman abilities. Yulaw continues his rampage, eradi- cating ‘himself’ in each universe in an attempt to achieve his ultimate goal — to be the only one. The other Gabriel Yulaw, known as Gabe, is the last alter- nate life wave standing between Yulaw and his ultimate goal. He is a great hus- band and an honoured veteran of the Los Angeles County Sheriffs Depart- ment. Gabe’s life is shattered when Yulaw enters his universe. But saving himself — the only alter- native left to him — isn’t as simple as killing his evil twin from another world. (Cineplex-Odeon Ajax 10 Cinemas, Famous Players Pickering 8 Cinemas - Pickering Town Centre). DOMESTIC DISTURBANCE Starring John Travolta, Vince Vaughn, Teri Polo, Steve Buscemi, Matt O’Leary. Directed by Harold Becker. Frank Morrison (Travolta) wants what’s best for his son. Since he and his wife Susan (Polo) divorced a few years ago, their son has been rebellious and troubled, with a his- tory of lying. Now everything is changing. Susan has found someone new and is about to become the new Mrs. Rick Barnes (Vaughn). A newcomer in town, Barnes has al- ready made his mark as a wealthy phil- anthropist. Frank is torn between refusing to be- lieve his son and considering the awful possibility that Barnes might be an alto- gether different man than he appears.

BY AL RIVETT Sports Editor PICKERING —An injury-riddled Pick- ering Boyer Pontiac Panthers squad suffered its second consecutive loss, dropping a close one to the lowly Oshawa Legionaires Tues- day night. Playing without four regulars and then losing two more to injury through the course of the OHA Ontario Provincial Junior ‘A’ Hockey League game in Oshawa, the de- pleted Panthers hung tough until disaster struck late in the game. Oshawa’s Ryan He- ickert scored with 12 seconds remaining to sink Pickering 5-4. “Disappointing,” was Panthers head coach Bill Purcell’s description of the game. But, he pointed out the loss only brought into focus how razor-thin the Panthers’ ros- ter has become recently. “We’ve got so many injuries right now, it’s ridiculous,” noted Purcell. Among the wounded are Alex Greig, Dan Schofield, Mike Cuzzolino and Chris An- derson, all out of Tuesday’s game. The Pan- thers also lost defencemen Sean Bradley (shoulder, wrist) and Alex Pavloski (hand) in the second period and played with only four blue-liners for the remainder of the game. In fact, the Panthers were forced to call up three players — Andre Batt, Ray Leblanc and Darryl Hely — from their junior ‘C’af- filiate in Schomberg for Tuesday’s contest. After trailing Oshawa 2-0 in the first pe- riod, the Panthers rallied with four goals in the second to take a 4-3 lead into the final 20 minutes. Oshawa tied the game at the mid- way point of the frame and then won it with Heickert’s goal. Three of the Panthers’ four goals came on the power play. Winder led the Panthers with two goals, while Brent Chandler and Ryan Taylor also scored. Assisting were Kyle Aitken with three, and Mike Alexiou, Bradley, Scott Old- field and Paul McFarland, with one apiece. The loss follows a 6-3 defeat at the hands of the first-place St. Michael’s Buzzers in Toronto last Friday. The Panthers remain in fifth place in the nine-team South Confer- ence standings with a mark of 6-9-2-1 for 15 points. The Panthers have signed another goal- tender after releasing veteran netminder Mike Andreoff, who was off to a horrible start. The team picked up veteran netminder Kevin Kliman, who previously played for the Thornhill Rattlers and Wexford Raiders of the provincial league. Andreoff’s release came after getting the hook from last Friday’s game where he al- lowed three goals on six shots in the first period. Kliman practised with the club Wednesday and is expected to get some game action in the near future, possibly this weekend, said Purcell. The Panthers begin a busy three-games-in-four- nights stretch tonight (Fri- day) at the Pickering Recre- ation Complex against the Thornhill Rattlers at 7:30 p.m. On Sunday, the Pan- thers host the Buzzers at 7:30 p.m., and on Monday, the juniors are on the road to Vaughan for a game against the Vipers at 7:15 p.m. PANTHERS’ POSTSCRIPT:The Pan- thers will host ‘PHA (Pickering Hockey Association) Night’when they face the Os- hawa Legionaires at the Pickering Recre- ation Complex Friday, Nov. 9 at 7:30 p.m. A family of four gets into the game for $5.

But power-play, short-handed goals hurt in 3-1 loss DURHAM —The penalty box proved to be an unkind place for the Telus Lightning in their game against the Brampton Thunder Tuesday night. The Thunder exploited Telus penalties for two power-play markers in the National Women's Hockey League (NWHL) contest en route to a 3-1 victory at the Ajax Community. For Telus, the loss followed a heartbreaking 2-1 defeat to the Ot- tawa Raiders at home last Saturday night. The Lightning's record falls to 1-3-1 for three points, good for third place in the NWHL's four-team West Division standings. After a scoreless first period, the Thunder struck for the power-play markers, which stood up through the second stanza. In the third, Telus cut the deficit to one before Brampton notched a short-handed marker to seal the Lightning's fate. Most disheartening for the Light- ning was holding a large edge in play in the third period -- they outshot the Thunder by a 16-4 margin -- but not translating the advantage into goals. "We swarmed them in the third pe- riod, but we just couldn't put the puck in the net" said Lightning general manager Bill Williamson. Team captain Erin Rourke scored the Lightning goal on the power play at the 17:21 mark of the third. Tina Evers and Christianne Tremills drew assists. Telus outshot Brampton 34-29. Andrea Babony scored her first NWHL goal, assisted by Elizabeth Chiasson, to account for the only Telus goal in the game against the Ot- tawa Raiders Saturday. Telus returns to action Tuesday, Nov. 6 when they host the first-place Beatrice Aeros at the Ajax Communi- ty Centre at 7:30 p.m. Telus Lightning perfect at even strength Pickering ties East Gwillimbury, loses to Markham PICKERING — The Pickering Panthers juvenile ‘AA’ rep hockey team tied and lost in recent league action. The Panthers suffered through an off-night in a 4-2 loss to Markham Oct. 23. Tony McMulkin and Mike Mitchell scored for Pickering, with assists to Mike Dawson, Jon Walsh and Dave Lewis. The previous night, the juveniles tied East Gwillimbury 2-2. Dawson netted the equalizer with only 28 seconds re- maining in the game. Brennan Taylor also scored, with as- sists to Walsh and McMulkin.
