PICKERING —Should the
mayor be paid the same as a
roads maintenance worker?
Should a City councillor’s
salary be comparable with that
of a mailroom clerk?
Right now they are, but Pick-
ering’s committee of the whole,
made up of the mayor and mem-
bers of council, doesn’t seem to
think they should be, and coun-
cil will make a final decision
Monday night.
Committee members voted
Monday to bring their pay pack-
ages to what Mayor Wayne
Arthurs says a little closer to
those of top executives at City
Hall or a board of directors for a
corporation the size of the City.
“(The current) $20,000 for
what’s required of this job just
wasn’t worth it,” said Ward 2
Regional Councillor Mark Hol-
land.
“We do it on a full-time
basis, we live and breathe it.”
A 20- to 25-per cent pay
raise, up to 24 months severance
in the event they lose an election
or resign their position, and
RRSP contributions matched by
the City of up to nine per cent of
their salary, are all a part of the
new remuneration and benefits
package.
Calling the raise and new
benefits “appropriate and re-
sponsible”, Mayor Arthurs said
council pay should reflect the
real opportunities in the private-
sector given up to serve con-
stituents.
He also said the public often
views council as overworked
and underpaid for the role it
plays in the community.
A clerk’s report to council
says it is “ironic” that despite the
fact they are leaders of the mu-
nicipality, the mayor’s salary is
comparable to a roads mainte-
nance worker or construction in-
spector and councillors to a part-
time parking control officer or
print-mailroom worker.
The new package includes a
graded pay scale where a mayor
in his or her first year of office
would receive $54,000, $58,000
in their second year and peaking
at $60,000 for the third and any
subsequent consecutive years.
Currently, Mayor Arthurs makes
$50,000 a year, plus the salary
he and regional councillors re-
ceive for Durham duties.
Under the new pay scale,
councillors in their first year
would make $22,000, $24,000
in their second year, and
$25,000 for their third and any
subsequent consecutive years in
office. Currently councillors
make $20,000.
The severance package
would pay members of council
one month of salary for every
year of consecutive, uninterrupt-
ed, full service on council, to a

council plans
wage hikes
Hart a hit with
his classmates
Student’s essay earns
visit from Blue Jay,
Robinson daughter
BY NICOLE MILLION
Special to the News Advertiser
PICKERING ––More than
400 Pickering elementary
school students turned their
small gym into the SkyDome
last week.
Students at Vaughan Willard
Public School, all wearing
Toronto Blue Jays baseball hats,
shouted “OK, Blue Jays, let’s
play ball” while anxiously
awaiting Sharon Robinson,
daughter of baseball legend
Jackie Robinson (the first
African-American to break the
colour barrier in Major League
Baseball), and Felipe Lopez,
starting shortstop for the Blue
Jays.
The students had one of their
own to thank for the special vis-
its.
Gregory Hart, who’s in
Grade 5 at Vaughan Willard,
won a national essay contest,
‘Breaking barriers: in sports, in
life’. Ms. Robinson and Major
League Baseball initiated the
program. “I couldn’t believe I
was going to meet Jackie Robin-
son’s daughter,” said Gregory in
admitting he didn’t sleep the
night before the visits.
Gregory’s essay about hav-
ing problems in school was one
of three selected in the Toronto
area from 7,000 entries.
“I think persistence is one of
the values that means a lot to me
because it has helped me
through the years when I have
faced many difficulties,” Grego-
ry wrote in his essay.
Russin Quartey, special-edu-
cation resource teacher, said the
students rose to the challenge.
“Writing is Greg’s weakness.
It’s wonderful for him to finally
be able to use others strategies to
help him,” she said. “Kids look
to the Blue Jays as role models.
It shows them that if they work
hard, just like the Blue Jays
work hard, it will pay off.”
Mr. Lopez, who’s been with
the Blue Jays organization for
five years, agreed.
“I had role models growing
up that were very important to
me. These kids need someone in
their lives to push them... give
them an extra edge,” he said.
Ms. Robinson spoke to the
kids about the barriers and ob-
stacles people face, and how to
overcome them with the values
her father used to be successful.
“It’s important for kids to un-
derstand that obstacles are a part
of life, but that we can overcome
them,” said the director of edu-
cational programming for Major
League Baseball.
Gregory’s proud family was
also on hand for the event.
“This is an exceptional mo-
ment, a once-in-a-lifetime op-
portunity,” said Tom Hart, Gre-
gory’s father. “To have our son’s
efforts bring the Blue Jays to the
school, it makes us very proud.”

Catholic board dips into reserves
Budget draft calls for
funds to get Durham
through review
BY MIKE RUTA
Staff Writer
DURHAM —Durham’s
Catholic school board intends to
use almost $5 million in reserves
to balance next year’s budget,
banking on a review of the edu-
cation funding formula resulting
in more money in the future.
The first draft of the Durham
Catholic District School Board’s
budget was made public at Mon-
day’s board meeting.
“The rainy day has arrived
for the use of working funds,”
business superintendent David
Visser told trustees.
The working funds reserve is
the board’s only discretionary
reserve fund and will be serious-
ly depleted by next summer if
trustees carry through on staff’s
recommendation. From more
than $9 million last August, the
fund would drop to roughly $3
million in August 2003.
Education director Grant An-
drews, responding to north
Durham Trustee Fred Jones’s
concern about drawing heavily
from the fund, said he shared it.
“Reserves are not limitless,
and when you use reserves to
balance, particularly an operat-
ing cost, you know that they’re
going to run out, so at some
point in time you have to pay the
piper, face the music,” he said.
Mr. Andrews said boards
across Ontario are finding it “ex-
tremely difficult” to operate
within the limits of the
Province’s funding model. He
said the Province has recognized
shortcomings in the implemen-
tation of the transportation and
special-education funding areas,
adding he expects the latter to
increase in the 2003/04 school
year.
If the funding formula re-
view, to be completed in under
five months, does not result in
grant increases, he painted a
gloomy picture of where the
board will be in a year’s time.
“We’ll actually be forced to
make some dramatic cuts for the
GRANT ANDREWS
Ontario boards finding it
‘extremely difficult’.

Ajax bank among
locations hit over
18-month period
BY STEPHEN SHAW
Staff Writer
DURHAM ––Christine White,
married construction worker turned
transgender bank robber dubbed the
Unisex Bandit, has been ordered to
cool her heels in federal penitentiary
for eight more years.
Born Anatoli Ivan Misura, the son
of Belgium immigrants, the 52-year-
old woman was sentenced Tuesday
for her cross-country crime spree, the
magnitude of which Mr. Justice
Edwin Minden called “almost stag-
gering.”
Ms. White, who court heard un-
derwent a series of sex-change proce-
dures in the 1990s following her di-
vorce, pleaded guilty last month to
committing 27 bank heists in four
provinces during an 18-month span.
She also pleaded guilty to 12
counts of wearing a disguise and
using an imitation firearm during the
commission of an offence in a “glob-
al plea” heard in Ontario’s Superior
Court of Justice in Whitby.
Court heard Ms. White was unable
to land legitimate work after her gen-
der transformation and operated a
beauty salon and an escort service.
Feeling shunned by society and un-
able to make ends meet, she turned to
a life of crime to support herself,
court was told.
Judge Minden noted Ms. White
was no ordinary bandit and highlight-
ed the meticulous planning and so-
phistication that went into the
holdups, including studying individ-
ual banks, mapping out escape routes
and scouting out police stations.
“In short, robbing banks was her
full-time occupation,” the judge said.
Wearing various male disguises,
Ms. White terrorized tellers in 17
municipalities across the country
from May 1997 to November 1998,
coolly passing holdup notes and
threatening victims with a starter’s
pistol that looked like a semi-auto-
matic, court heard.
Several times she left a fake bomb
on the counter of the bank.
The heists netted her more than
$70,000 in total.
Ms. White knocked off banks in
Durham Region on three occasions,
robbing the downtown Whitby Sco-
tiabank two times, Sept. 26, 1997 and
Feb. 20, 1998, as well as the Westney
Road Bank of Montreal in Ajax on
Aug. 5, 1998.
Police finally nabbed the elusive
robber Nov. 18, 1998 when she
crashed her car during a pursuit in
Belleville.
In 1999, Ms. White pleaded guilty
but the pleas were struck when she
changed her mind and fired her
lawyer prior to sentencing.
In an 11th-hour development
Tuesday, just prior to sentencing, Ms.
White fired her fourth lawyer, John
Gale, and requested her recent pleas
be struck.
In a 20-minute diatribe, Ms. White
said her pleas were entered “under
compulsion” and complained of nu-
merous perceived violations of her
rights.
Judge Minden, calling it a case of
“déjà vu,” refused the request.
The judge determined Ms. White
deserved an 11-year sentence but he
reduced the term by three years,
awarding her extra credit for pretrial
custody due to the excessively “harsh
conditions” she was subjected to
while in jail.
Ms. White spent the last 10
months confined to an 8-by-4-foot
windowless cell in the Whitby Jail
segregation unit as a result of fears
for her safety.
Ms. White, who is currently pen-
ning an autobiography, was described
in a presentence assessment as hav-
ing “severe personality disorder of
the narcissistic type.”

DURHAM —They’re
on their own now.
The Deohaeko Support
Network, a non-profit or-
ganization based in Picker-
ing, has launched its new
book, ‘On Our Own...To-
gether’, a comprehensive
community resource look-
ing at the steps required to
increase financial security
for families with depen-
dent loved ones, and to
help other organizations
create endowment funds.
The book was unveiled
Tuesday at a celebration in
Pickering that also includ-
ed the launch of the Deo-
haeko endowment fund
through the Community
Foundation of Durham Re-
gion.
Janet Klees, family co-
ordinator with Deohaeko,
admitted the group started
on its own process of
learning while researching
the book.
“This endowment helps
us look to the future,” said
Ms. Klees. “This is a
chance for us to
celebrate.”
Deohaeko is a
group of
Durham Region
families dedicat-
ed to ensuring
their adult chil-
dren with dis-
abilities are able
to live meaning-
ful lives in their
communities.
Since its estab-
lishment 12
years ago, the
group has pub-
lished two books
aimed at assist-
ing other fami-
lies and groups,
designed and
built Rouge-
mount, a co-op-
erative housing
community, as
well as raised
money for vari-
ous projects.
“For such a
small organiza-
tion, we have
been able to
achieve many in-
credible things,”
said Ms. Klees.
At the book
launch, guests
received free
copies, which
are also avail-
able at no cost to
interested indi-
viduals and
groups across
Canada.
The group be-
lieves communi-
ties are stronger
and better when
they include and
welcome all
members of so-
ciety, said Ms.
Klees.
She added
she hopes people
will be attracted
to Deohaeko’s
vision and be
compelled to do-
nate to the en-
dowment fund.
“As time goes on, and
the parents get to be elder-
ly, people will need more
money.
“We didn’t see that
money coming from the
government, so we found a
way of doing it for our-
selves,” she said.

UXBRIDGE ––The fight
was over within seconds but
memories of it will last forever.
Attendees at a weekend
field party in Zephyr are in
shock this week after 24-year-
old Jessie Owen Gray, of Mus-
selman Lake, was stabbed to
death during the post-prom
bash.
“There was so much blood
that you couldn’t tell (where
he’d been stabbed),” said an
Uxbridge Secondary School
student who witnessed Mr.
Gray’s body being dragged
away after an alleged fight
with another man. The student
did not wish to be named. “It
was awful to look at.”
Sheila Buffan, who owns
the property where the party
was held and whose daughter
attends Uxbridge Secondary,
said Monday afternoon the
family is distraught at the
death. She declined further
comment until police have
completed their investigation.
Students from the high
school said the annual party,
held for the past three years at
a 10-acre farm on Zephyr
Road, was usually safe. Almost
all of the 350 students who at-
tended the official Uxbridge
Secondary School prom Friday
night at Ontario Place attended
the field party later on, said an
OAC student from the school,
who also wished to remain
anonymous.
“It’s the main party for the
prom,” said the OAC student.
He said the large party - at-
tended by up to 500 people, ac-
cording to Durham Regional
Police - included musical
guests and DJs who performed
on a stage set up on the back of
a tractor trailer. In previous
years, most students and party-
goers spent the night drinking
before camping out in tents on
the property, said the student.
“I’m sure if you want to get
wasted out of your mind, it’s a
good party,” he said.
This year’s revelry ended
around 4:20 a.m. after Mr.
Gray was stabbed. Police de-
tained hundreds of party-goers
until the early morning while
conducting their investigation.
Peter Morris, the principal
of Uxbridge Secondary
School, described the mood of
students this week as “very
subdued.”
He stressed the field party
was not sanctioned by the
school board and noted he had
told police three weeks ago of
the party.
Uxbridge councillors and
the mayor expressed concern
Monday about reports the or-
ganizers of the party had
charged $10 admission to the
event.
If admission was charged,
Regional Councillor Susan
Para said, “it’s totally illegal.”
She said the party should have
been classified as a commer-
cial venture and would have
therefore required council’s
approval. She noted an applica-
tion for a similar field party on
Brock Road had been turned
down by council in the past.
Uxbridge’s building and
bylaw department is looking
into the matter, said Coun.
Para.
One nearby resident to the
party-holders said Zephyr-area
residents had been concerned
the annual bash was becoming
too big.
“Kids have had parties for
years, but this has become
much more than an Uxbridge
party,” the neighbour, who
wished to remain anonymous,
said. “It’s more of a free-for-
all.”
Police have charged a 19-
year-old Scugog man, Carey
Patrick Cleyndert, with sec-
ond-degree murder in connec-
tion with the stabbing.

The package comes into ef-
fect should councillors or the

feated in an election.
Coun. Holland said the pack-
age allows councillors and the

itics”.
City councillors to vote on wage increases, severance dealsDurham board digs deep in budget
2003/2004 school year,” said Mr.
Andrews.
Referring to a list of pro-
grams staff had requested, but
that were dropped from the bud-
get, Pickering Trustee Fran
Pereira lamented the loss of
some specific initiatives, includ-
ing $8,000 in funding targeted
for the board’s ‘sharing of excel-
lence’ conference and series for
staff and parents.
“The reality is we would like
to be able to do everything but
you have to operate close to your
means,” said Mr. Andrews.
He suggested the budget is far
from a bare-bones document.
“It’s a pretty rich budget, a
very rich budget because it’s
considerably above the funding
level we have been provided
with,” said Mr. Andrews.
The first budget draft does
not include almost $3 million in
school renewal and repair pro-
jects principals had requested,
though that part of the budget
has increased by more than
$400,000 from last year.
Mr. Visser noted that while 35
more educational assistants
(EAs) were requested, only 19
were included in the budget. The
other 16 positions will be re-
viewed and there may be a
change, he said.
Also in the special-education
area, the board plans to hire the
equivalent of 4.75 staff mem-
bers, including a social worker
and a child and youth counsellor.
As well, Mr. Visser said the
Province has not provided
enough funds for boards to keep
pace with inflation.

Interviews being
conducted to replace
Catholic colleague
who resigned
BY MIKE RUTA
Staff Writer
DURHAM —Catholic
school board trustees Monday
night differed on who could take
part in the vote for their new col-
league.
The Durham Catholic District
School board plans to appoint a
new Oshawa trustee at a June 19
special board meeting. The va-
cancy was created when former
trustee Stan Karwowski resigned
last month after making an inap-
propriate comment in an e-mail
to a supporter of gay Oshawa
high school teen Marc Hall.
Education director Grant An-
drews said there has been no
shortage of applicants for the
job.
“We had a considerable num-
ber of inquiries with respect to
the vacancy and we currently
have 14 applicants,” he told
trustees at Monday’s board
meeting.
Mr. Andrews said the game
plan is to begin interviewing the
candidates at 5 p.m. on the day
of the special meeting. The
board’s seven sitting trustees, by
a simple majority, will decide
who gets the job.
Mr. Andrews invited all
trustees to take part in the inter-
viewing process, and said a
trustee who plans to do so should
attend all the interviews to be
fair to the candidates.
“The intent is the trustee must
be in attendance for all the inter-
views to be able to vote,” he said.
But Oshawa Trustee Joe
Corey and north Durham repre-
sentative Fred Jones said a
trustee could vote regardless of
how many interviews they at-
tend.
Mr. Andrews said it’s his rec-
ommendation trustees be there
for all the interviews in order to
vote, but noted “it’s the board of
trustees who rule the board” and
trustees could motion otherwise.
Board chairman Mary Ann
Martin agreed with Trustee
Jones the Education Act “most
likely” does not prevent a trustee
from voting.
But “out of fairness for the
applicants” she agreed with Mr.
Andrews, noting the format has
been used in the past when inter-
viewing trustee and supervisory
officer applicants.
“I’m not suggesting this is the
case, but some trustees may al-
ready know who they want to
vote for,” replied Trustee
Jones.
Responding to Trustee
Jones, student representa-
tive David Byrne said “to
walk in with a bias would
be unfair to any of the can-
didates.”
“I plan to be here for it
all,” said Trustee Jones.
“But having said that, if a
trustee is late, I still be-
lieve they have a right to
vote.”
“I would say if that per-
son’s late, let their conscience be
their guide,” answered Trustee
Martin.
So they could vote, Trustee
Jones said.
Mr. Andrews said trustees
Jones and Corey were right,
adding, “our bylaws are silent on
this issue.
“Technically you’re correct,
each trustee is entitled to a vote.
But I caution against taking a
vote that is not an informed
vote.”
Trustee Martin said trustees
would be given a list of the can-
didates on interview day and can
submit questions that would be
asked of all the applicants.

‘Some trustees may
already know who they
want to vote for.’
PICKERING —Featuring
loads of sun and warm weather
mixed in with a ton of fun, the
Frenchman’s Bay Festival was
another rousing success this
year, say organizers.
Dave Johnson said the pub-
lic turned out in droves and the
festival had very little in the
way of problems.
“The weather was perfect
and we had a good turnout,” he
said.
“Saturday night may have
had less people than in past
years, but that’s because the
tremendous increase in security
deterred the troublemakers.”
The heavy security presence
was noted by several festival-
goers, but Mr. Johnson said
that’s the reality of keeping the
grounds secure in today’s
world.
“We need to ensure the safe-
ty of everybody coming to the
festival. Safety, that’s the most
important thing,” he explained.
“It’s a sign of the times, the po-
lice asked for it, and the local
residents asked for it.”
Overall, he called the event a
“success” and said plans were
already being made for next
year to be even better.

Notice of
Liquor Licence
Application
My name is Tania Olsson. I am a
single mother. My son, Chaz, is
eight years old. I am a customer
service representative. I dropped
64 lbs. of fat in 11 short months. My
story is so remarkable. I would like
to share it with you.
By Tania Olsson
My cheeks burned with embarrass-
ment as I stared at the television screen.
We were watching a recent family
video. “I’m huge!” I gasped.
I had always been tall and trim in
high school. I was on the swim team
and volleyball team. I was shocked and
appalled to realize how fat I had
become.
My folks never allowed junk food
in the house. When I got old enough to
make my own food choices, I went hog
wild. Chips, ice cream and soda pop
were my routine. When I was pregnant
I started eating for two. After Chaz was
born I cooked for two and ate for four!
I used food as comfort. I
told myself it was just
baby fat. It would go
away. But it didn’t
go away. I was get-
ting fatter every
week.
With fat came anxiety and depres-
sion. My self-esteem was nil. I could
see folks turning sideways to squeeze
past me. I’d cringe inside.
My weight made me crazy. I
refused to eat in public. I knew what
people were thinking...Look at what
you’re eating...no wonder you’re so
fat. Go ahead, honey, have another
cheeseburger.
I used to be so hard on fat people.
Now I was fat, hurt and desperate.
Dieting Nightmares
I was always trying the next fad
diet. I tried grueling exercise routines.
It would never stick. When I didn’t
feel the results, I’d get discouraged.
The cravings were unbearable.
I lost 30 pounds twice with weight loss
drugs. My weight shot back up so fast it
made my head spin. The drugs set me on
an emotional rollercoaster. I couldn’t bear
the thought of a third go around. Nothing
I do works, I told myself as I sat
on the couch with a gallon of ice
cream. What’s the use of trying?
Ray of Sunshine
One day a close friend encouraged
me to try hypnosis. I was skeptical.
“I’ve heard they get great results,” she
said. I could only hope.
The free screening was like a ray
of sunshine. My consultant was car-
ing and concerned. The office is
professional and comfortable.
Their level of confidentiality was
impressive. I held my breath for the
sales pitch. It didn’t happened. They
explained the program in detail. Left it
for me to decide. The fee was much
lower than I expected.
I signed up and lost 64 lbs. in 11
short months. I lost ten inches off my
waist. My dress size plunged from a
bulging 22 to sleek size 12.
Whole New Me!
Immediately after my first
session my appetite dimin-
ished. I feel completely satis-
fied with small, healthy portions.
Next my food choices
changed. When I was fat I
would not touch raw vegeta-
bles. With hypnosis I have
developed this strange attrac-
tion to carrots! They’re as
appealing as potato chips
used to be. I know I will
never, ever gain the weight
back. Now that I’m thin
and happy with my body, I
can’t think of a single rea-
son to overeat.
Hypnosis
Delivers Benefits!
I used to feel sluggish by 9:00
a.m. I was so depressed. Even my
hair drooped.
Since hypnosis I look and feel
young, alive and vibrant. My skin is
glowing. My hair is thick and shiny. I
have tons of energy. I’m light on my
feet.
My family and friends all want to
know how I did it. They want to be like
me. The other day a co-worker said, “I
wish I could have even half your ener-
gy.” That was the best compliment of
all.
When I was fat I smoked skinny
cigarettes to make me feel thin. Quit-
ting smoking was a side benefit I had
not expected. I breathe better. Move
better. Enjoy more activities.
I hated walking in and out of plus
size stores. I
would rush
my shopping
bags to the
car. Every-
body knows
you’re fat,
but come
on,
that’s
the big
girl’s
store.
Shopping
for a size 12
is the most
wonderful
feeling in the
world. I no
longer worry
about eating in
public. When
eyes are on
me, I know
they’re thinking,
“Hey, she’s got it
together.”
Chaz is tickled to see
my biceps. We recently
went rock climbing. We
enjoy rollerblading. There’s no way I
could have done that before.
Recommends
I suffered when I was overweight. I
lived in a state of overwhelming help-
lessness. I was out of control. It was
frightening.
Hypnosis was the smartest invest-
ment of my life. My consultant took the
time to listen to my fears. I never felt
pressured. My success was their main
concern.
I got more than I expected from my
private hypnosis sessions. I feel won-
derful about myself. If it wasn’t for
hypnosis I wouldn’t be enjoying my
slim, healthy body today.
Don’t think I’m a lone success story
either. I meet other successful clients
all the time.
My only regret is that I waited and
suffered for months. You don’t have to
suffer another second. Call 905-686-
7717 right now to schedule your free
hypnotic screening. I know your con-
sultant will answer all your questions
and put your fears to rest. If they don’t
think hypnosis is right for you, they
will tell you so.
You owe it to yourself to find
out. CALL NOW.
*NO-RISK GUARANTEE*
If at your first program session you do
notfeel you attained hypnosis we will
refund 100% of your money before you
leave the building. No questions asked.
You risk nothing.
WE-STAY-WITH-IT
GUARANTEE*
We evaluate your needs, then deter-
mine a fee. Once the fee is paid there
are no additional charges, regardless of
how many sessions you may need to
attain your results. We stay with it until
you are happy.
MORE PROOF . . .
CERTAIN SUCCESS!
“I used hypnosis to lose weight and improve my sales performance. My doctor says I have lost 20 lbs. already.
My blood pressure is way down. I feel calm and relaxed.
My goal was to double my business. I’ve nearly quadrupled it! Hypnosis is a great experience. I noticed
changes right off the bat. Hypnosis took away the nervous feelings. Compulsive eating habits vanished. My
success is certain. I wholeheartedly recommend hypnosis for weight loss amd sales performance. I’ve rec-
ommended it to all my friends.”
Jim Ridenhour, Fire Safety Coordinator
INSTANT RESULTS!
“I was skeptical about hypnosis. What a surprise when my friend, Debbie Crews, told me she stopped smok-
ing and lost 23 pounds with hypnosis. I felt totally relaxed after the first session. On my way home I did not
crave a cigarette. I love the relaxation. I stopped smoking instantly with hypnosis.”

Ontario Liberals know all about
‘friendly fire’ — they have been
damaged by their federal party be-
fore and there are indications it
will happen again in an election
next year.
The federal Liberals have
launched into a no-holds-barred
brawl for leader between Prime
Minister Jean Chretien and former
finance minister Paul Martin, the
reverberations of which will con-
tinue at least a year and probably
more.
Ontario is due for an election in
2003. New Progressive Conserva-
tive Premier Ernie Eves could hold
it off for a year, but presumably
will welcome the chance to call
one when Liberals across the coun-
try are calling each other nasty
names and Liberal will mean
mean-spirited and divisive.
Ontario Liberal leader Dalton
McGuinty is trying to mitigate
damage to his party by asking his
MPPs to avoid getting deeply in-
volved in the federal squabbling,
because this could create animosi-
ties that would make it difficult for
Liberals to work together in his
campaign.
But this bolt from above should
not be a surprise to Ontario Liber-
als — they should be accustomed
to their federal party making elec-
tions more difficult for them.
In the 1999 Ontario election
won by then Progressive Conserv-
ative premier Mike Harris, Liberal
backbench MPs almost lined up to
praise Mr. Harris’s right-wing poli-
cies. One said he would not rush
out to help the provincial Liberals
because he had many views on
taxes similar to Mr. Harris’s.
Another said, “I like parts of
what Mr. Harris is doing” and a
third asked with dubious reason-
ing, “Why should I help Mr.
McGuinty? His chances are not
too good.”
Just before the same election
the federal Liberals also increased
transfer payments to provinces and
it could not be argued they should
have delayed such public policy to
help a provincial opposition party.
But did federal Treasury Board
president Marcel Masse need to
declare publicly this was a coup
for Mr. Harris?
The best-remembered impact
by federal Liberals on an Ontario
election was in 1975, when John
Turner resigned as finance minister
only a few days before the vote,
charging prime minister Pierre
Trudeau was not doing enough to
fight inflation.
This showed Liberals divided
and gave Tory premier William
Davis, who for want of provincial
issues also had argued the federal
Liberals were lax in fighting infla-
tion, an opportunity to say the fed-
eral finance minister agreed with
him. Ontario Liberal leader Bob
Nixon maintained Mr. Turner
could have hung in comfortably
enough a few more days and his
Liberals would have won the elec-
tion.
The federal Liberals helped Mr.
Davis win another election in 1981
when they could not resist praising
him for the work he put in helping
to secure a new Constitution.
Just before another election in
the 1980s the federal Liberals, who
are in government more and able
to offer better career advancement,
lured four of their Ontario party’s
most promising younger MPPs, in-
cluding Sheila Copps and Don
Boudria, to run for them.
This left the Ontario Liberals to
fight an election without a single
sitting woman or francophone
MPP and looking unrepresentative
of the community. Jim Bradley,
then Ontario Liberal deputy house
leader, complained to the federal
party such raiding was a major rea-
son provincial Liberal parties
could not win government.
There was an Ontario election
in which the federal Liberal gov-
ernment raised gasoline taxes 10
cents a gallon, which helped bring
the provincial Liberals’ campaign
to a quick stop.
There also was the Ontario
election when Mr. Trudeau tried
genuinely to help, descending on a
rally at Mr. Nixon’s farm in a heli-
copter, like a messiah, but re-
porters found federal taxpayers
paid for the partisan flight and that
Liberal campaign stayed firmly on
the ground.
Ontario Liberal leaders have
spoken out. David Peterson, before
he became premier, called Mr.
Trudeau a “millstone” and a prede-
cessor, Stuart Smith, refused to use
the word Liberal on signs and let-
terheads, saying federal Liberals
had made it “a very negative
word”.
But the Ontario Liberals also
made mistakes of their own and
they have to accept their federal
party has a different agenda and al-
ways looks after itself first.
With friends like these...

It’s been tough for Prime Minister Jean Chretien lately. But
not nearly as tough as for the millions of children living in
poverty in this country.
With Mr. Chretien surely thinking about his own exit strat-
egy –– whether before or after one more election –– there is
a tremendous legacy he can leave to Canadians, should he
have the courage and determination to do so.
That gift to Canadians would involve a comprehensive and
generous federal plan to eradicate child poverty in this
wealthy nation.
Shamefully little has been done to help millions of poor
children who suffer each day from malnutrition; who worry
about having a roof over their heads; who must deal with the
trauma of a parent or parents stretched to the financial and
emotional breaking point.
Parliamentarians talked a very good game in November
1989 when then Oshawa MP and NDP leader Ed Broadbent
moved a private member’s bill supported unanimously in the
House of Commons to eliminate child poverty by the year
2000.
All agreed the problem was a travesty in a country with the
abundance of Canada. That our youngest and most innocent
citizens were stuck in misery, forced into great disadvantage
so early in life, was considered a critical problem.
But since 1989, there has been precious little talk and vir-
tually no action on the problem. Governments battled through
tough economic times and sought tax cuts and deficit reduc-
tion/elimination as prominent goals. That may have been ac-
ceptable in the early and mid-1990s but there is no excuse for
government inaction over the past two or three years when
governments have raked in multi-billion dollar surpluses.
It’s high time to use some of that surplus money to help our
most needy.
That’s where the Prime Minister, who has shown of late
that he is absolutely in charge of the government, can do some
good for our youngest citizens.
There will be at least $6 billion or $7 billion in extra funds
to put towards debt reduction and into social programs. To
make a serious dent in the child poverty problem, a large per-
centage of that money would have to be directed to ongoing
and sustaining programs which would directly affect our chil-
dren.
Should the Prime Minister, who spoke in 2001 of dedicat-
ing his government to an attack on child poverty, live up to his
pledge, the future of many in this country will be much
brighter. There are hints the government will get moving in
the fall with a program attacking child poverty.
But, as in 1989, we’re still waiting for action.

Masking the
real issue of
deregulation
To the editor:
Re: ‘OPG disputes price hike,’
June 9.
Pat O’Brien, manager of public
affairs at the Pickering Nuclear
Generating Station, seemingly
fails to realize the Government of
Ontario is using him as a scape-
goat.
Although the provincial auditor
Erik Peters was apt in urging the
government to take an active inter-
est in the delays and cost overruns
with regard to restarting the four
Pickering ‘A’ nuclear reactors, it
was obvious he was grasping at
straws when he claimed these fac-
tors could drive up electricity
prices.
The Pickering station, as Minis-
ter of Energy Chris Stockwell has
said, currently supplies Ontario
with an excess of electricity. The
real reason for the increase in elec-
tricity prices is the privatization of
Ontario’s energy market. In Cali-
fornia, where prices were expected
to decrease after privatization,
there was a 40-per cent increase.
Knowing that Ontario’s market
operator is directly modelled after
California’s, one can’t help but be
excited about the future of energy
in Ontario. The provincial govern-
ment has unfortunately chosen the
innocent Pat O’Brien as a scape-
goat, and masked their efforts
through the persistence of the min-
ister of energy. Maybe the govern-
ment has finally realized taking
away Ontario’s right to reliable
power at cost, it has ruined its
chances of seeking another man-
date from the people of Ontario.

Child porn
must be fought
To the editor:
Child pornography is growing
around the world and in Canada
with devastating results for the
child victims. In January 2002
alone, over one million porno-
graphic images involving children
were seized by police in Ontario.
These images contained real chil-
dren, not animation, and all de-
picted children and even infants
being abused in brutal and per-
verse ways.
What kinds of factors are caus-
ing such an increase in child
pornography? For two years end-
ing in January 2001, Canada’s
child pornography law was in
limbo, having been declared un-
constitutional because it restricted
freedom of expression. The
growth of the Internet and the un-
certainty of the law allowed peo-
ple to produce and distribute this
material without being arrested.
Since 2001 the law has been
upheld as constitutional, but the
market for child pornography
continues to grow: many people
who had taken one look out of cu-
riosity have become addicted.
Last March, John Robin Sharpe,
the B.C. man who wrote stories
describing sexual acts and torture
between adults and young boys,
was acquitted of possessing writ-
ten child pornography because the
stories had “artistic merit”.
This is an outrage. Any glorifi-
cation of pedophilia is wrong and
should be outlawed. Child
pornography will continue to
grow unless legislators and en-
forcement bodies get more sup-
port from the public to fight
against it. Our children and com-
munities are at stake.

the Town’s community spirit and a time for residents to
get together and have a good time. The festivities are
planned to include everyone and former Ajax residents
are encouraged to return ‘home’ for a visit. The Ajax
Kinsmen Club has sponsored annual community events
since the 1950s but its 1971 project, spearheaded by
Kinsmen Joe Dickson and Doug Menzie, started the an-
nual Ajax Home Weekend. In 1976 the festivities were
expanded and the Ajax Home Week as we now know it
began. This year’s Home Week wraps up this weekend.

NOTICE
OF PUBLIC MEETING
HAMLET OF GREENWOOD
(SCOPED) EXPANSION STUDY
In 1997, Pickering Council considered a potential
Hamlet of Greenwood Expansion Study. At that time, the
expansion study was not conducted due to budget
constraints,
In June 2001, Bitondo Markets Limited submitted Draft
Plan of Subdivision Application SP-2001-04, Zoning by-
law Amendment Application A 16/01 and Minister’s
Zoning Order Amendment Application 18-ZO-01901-08
to permit the development of 13 hamlet residential lots
with detached houses on the west side of Westney Road,
south of Greenridge Drive. Following the Statutory
Public Information Meeting held on October 18, 2001, to
receive public comments on these applications,
comments were received suggesting that a hamlet
expansion study should be conducted for the Hamlet of
Greenwood to investigate whether an expansion of
Greenwood of this nature would be appropriate. A map
of Greenwood is provided below.
At this time, Pickering Planning & Development staff
would like to invite interested residents, landowners
(including the applicant) and any other interested parties
to discuss the scope of an expansion study to evaluate a
minor expansion to the south part of the Hamlet of
Greenwood at the following public meeting:
What: Public Meeting
When: June 25, 2002 - 7:30 P.M.
Where: Greenwood Community Centre
One Week prior to the meeting, a proposal for the scope
of the study will be circulated to anyone on the
circulation list for the above-noted applications and to
anyone else who requests this information.

Public Information Meeting
On April 10, 2000, the Rouge Park Neighbourhood
Study was presented to Pickering Council. Council
adopted development guidelines, an environmental
master servicing plan and an implementation strategy
for the Area that included a request that non-
developable lands owned by the Ontario Realty
Corporation be transferred to an appropriate public
authority with a conservation mandate, and directed that
a Statutory Public Information Meeting be held to
consider an Official Plan Amendment to implement the
results of the study. A map showing the location of the
subject lands is provided below.
A Statutory Public Information Meeting has been called
to provide an opportunity for members of the public to
comment on a City initiated amendment to the
Pickering Official Plan designed to implement the
findings of the Rouge Park Neighbourhood Study. It is
anticipated that Planning Committee and Council will
consider these amendments later this year.
If you wish to comment on this matter, you may do so
at the meeting when this item is presented. If you would
like a copy of the Information Report, which contains a

ATTENTION RURAL RESIDENTS!!!
The Council of the City of Pickering has authorized a Growth
Management Study that will provide for a study of those lands in the
rural area from the Seaton Lands in the east to the York/Durham Town
Line in the west, within the northern boundary of Highway 7 and the
southern boundary of the C.P. Belleville Rail line.
The Growth Management Study will lead to a review of the current
Official Plan and any existing studies conducted either for the City,
Region or Province and the review will form the basis for how
Pickering will manage future growth pressures.
A Working Group has been established comprised of Members of
Council, Pickering staff and various representatives of the community.
The task of the Working Group will be to draft detailed terms of
references for the Growth Management Study.
Council is seeking one representative of landowners in the Agricultural
Assembly to participate on the Working Group. The Agricultural
Assembly is that area between Duffins Creek in the east, the
York/Durham Town Line in the west, Highway #7 in the north and the
C.P. Belleville Rail line in the south.
Applications for appointment to the Working Group from landowners
in the Agricultural Assembly should be forwarded to the undersigned
no later than June 28, 2002. For further information, please contact
Bruce Taylor, City Clerk, at 905-420-4611 or by E-Mail at

Province promises to
move ahead despite
lengthy wait
BY JACQUIE McINNES
Staff Writer
DURHAM ––A two-year
fight for testing on the environ-
mental effects of a north Os-
hawa paper sludge berm could
be ending with a promise by a
local MPP that the Province is
ready to act.
“It’s been stated on the
record in the House, in writing
and in a presentation,” Durham
MPP John O’Toole said follow-
ing a meeting of about 300 peo-
ple in Enfield, north of Courtice.
Local residents, environmen-
talists as well as regional and
provincial agricultural and horti-
cultural groups attended the
meeting, says Deb Vice, co-
chairman of Protect the Ridges
(PTR), a local group formed to
address the issues of sludge
stockpiling and the practice of
spreading sludge on farmland.
Mr. O’Toole said he has re-
ceived a commitment by the
new Minister of Environment
Chris Stockwell to address resi-
dents’ concerns through imme-
diate testing of the environment
surrounding the Oshawa Skeet
and Gun Club, which uses
Sound-Sorb berms to protect
neighbouring properties from
noise.
The issue extends far beyond
this one sound berm, notes the
MPP.
PTR is worried about the po-
tential effects of Sound-Sorb, a
sound barrier made from paper
production by-products and
sand.
“There is clearly a commit-
ment of money and resources,”
the MPP said in an interview,
noting $250,000 has been dedi-
cated to studying the impacts
from the Oshawa site.
At the meeting, the MPP
promised water test results will
be released within two weeks.
Also, 14 test wells will be dug
by July as part of a one-year
groundwater-monitoring pro-
gram, he said. A bio aerosol
study, expected to begin last
year, will start by the end of
June, he added.
While PTR is encouraged by
Mr. O’Toole’s announcement
after repeated disappointments
over the past two years, the
group isn’t ready to celebrate
just yet.
“This is the third minister
that has put forth promises in the
past two years,” said PTR co-
chairman Kevin Campbell. “Yet
the Durham office of the Min-
istry of Environment can’t seem
to get its act together to produce
results. We will eagerly await
the promised actions while in-
vestigating all avenues, includ-
ing legal, available to us. Our
patience has truly run out.”
The paper waste used in
Sound-Sorb comes from At-
lantic Packaging. The paper
company has maintained
throughout the controversy that
the product has been extensively
tested both at the University of
Guelph and through the MOE
over the past decade. According
to the company, the product is
environmentally safe.
DURHAM ––St. John’s

ment, shock, unconsciousness,

Individuals local
organizations come
together to develop
green energy
projects
Those interested in energy
efficiency have a chance to at-
tend a free workshop in Ajax
originally scheduled for June
16, but which is now being
held later in the month..
This inspiring one-day
event, sponsored by the On-
tario Sustainable Energy As-
sociation (OSEA) will bring
together individuals and orga-
nizations in the Durham/Scar-
borough area that are interest-
ed in developing community-
based green energy projects.
OSEA is delivering these
workshops across Ontario and
the response to date has been
exceptional. At the end of
each full day, enthusiastic
workshop participants from
different sectors have been
ready and willing to work to-
gether as partners on energy
projects within their commu-
nities.
OSEA facilitators help de-
velop an understanding of
green energy opportunities
and issues through case stud-
ies, guided exercises, and
open discussion. Topics in-
clude organization options,
green power aggregation,
fund-raising, as well as the
fundamentals of wind and
micro-hydro generation.
Energy efficiency concepts
should attract municipal lead-
ers as well as those with a pas-
sion for environmental issues.
This workshop will provide a
great avenue of networking
for those interested in starting
a community co-operative.
Attendees will receive a
free resource kit. Lunch will
be provided for $5 to each
registered participant.
Chris Coltas, OSEA volun-
teer, asks anyone who would
like to attend to register by
phone at 905-683-6456 or e-
mail at cpc2@sympatico.ca.
Those interested but unable
to attend can have information
sent following the workshop.

mont Hotels and Resorts gives
this example of energy sav-
ings:
With over 34,050 light fix-
tures, the Fairmont Royal
York has switched 1,920 bulbs
in the guest bathrooms and
5,500 bulbs in the guestrooms
from incandescent to compact
fluorescent bulbs, saving
$57,135 annually.
In public areas and stair-
cases, over 773 bulbs have
been switched with additional
savings of $23,095 a year. Ad-
ditional energy measures have
resulted in savings of $36,305.
❑ ❑ ❑
GREEN TIPS:Clean out
your dryer lint, which can be
composted, after every load,
and vacuum lint from the
motor, drum and pipes at least
once a year. It’s good for your
dryer and your energy bill. In
the nice weather use a clothes-
line.
Plant evergreens on the
north side of your house for
winter protection and decidu-
ous trees, such as Maple, for
summer shade to the south,
east and west. These shade
trees reduce the need to air
condition.

PRESSURE
It is important to have the proper air pressure in
your tires, as under inflation is the leading cause of
tire failure. The “right amount” of air for your tires
is specified by the vehicle manufacturer and is
shown on the vehicle door edge, door post, glove
box door or fuel door. It is also listed in the
owner’s manual.
When you check the air pressure, make sure the
tires are cool - meaning they are not hot from
driving even a mile. It is normal for tires to heat up
and the air pressure inside to increase as you drive.
ALIGNMENT
Misalignment of wheels in the front or rear can
cause uneven and rapid treadwear and should be
corrected by a tire dealer. Front-wheel-drive
vehicles, and those with independent rear
suspension, require alignment of all four wheels.
TREAD
Tires must be replaced when the tread is worn
down to 1/16 of an inch in order to prevent
skidding and hydroplaning. An easy test: place
penny into a tread groove. If part of Lincoln’s head
is covered by the tread, you’re driving with the
proper amount of tread. If you can see all of his
head, you should buy a new tire. Built-in
treadwear indicators, or “wear bars”, which look
like narrow strips of smooth rubber will appear
when the tread is worn down.
Properly cared for tires can last a long time -
usually from 40,000 to 80,000 miles, depending on
the application.

Guerrieri puts on
winning show
for world’s top
race-car drivers
BY AL RIVETT
Sports Editor
PICKERING —A Picker-
ing race-car driver overcame
two more-experienced drivers
and adverse weather to capture
his maiden victory in the
Canadian Formula Ford
Championship race series in
Montreal this last weekend.
Racing as part of the Air
Canada Grand Prix weekend,
which featured a large crowd
for the Formula 1 race on the
Circuit Gilles-Villeneuve,
Chris Guerrieri, 18, posted his
first ever victory in the series
under wet, treacherous track
conditions.
In the process, he managed
to beat series stalwarts Louis-
Philippe Dumoulin, from
Trois-Rivières, Que. and two-
time series champion Didier
Schraenen, from St.
Hilaire, Que.

shine at provincial
championships
PICKERING —Two Pine Ridge
Secondary School track athletes were
flush with gold following the provincial
championships in Belleville June 6 to 8.
It was a banner meet for Paul Martin
and Tabia Charles, two of only five Pine
Ridge athletes at the Ontario Federation
of School Athletic Associations
(OFSAA) Track and Field Champi-
onships at Belleville’s M.A. Sills Park.
More than 2,500 athletes represent-
ing 800 schools competed at the 53rd
annual championships — Canada’s
large track and field meet.
Charles jumped to a gold medal in
the junior girls’ triple jump, establish-
ing a new Canadian and OFSAA meet
record in the process. Charles’s leap of
12.36 metres bettered the old mark of
12.21 set three years ago and the Cana-
dian high school mark of 12.25 metres
set two years ago. Incredibly, the
record-setting performance is well
short of her personal best of 12.95 me-
tres.
In addition to the triple jump,
Charles also ran to a silver medal in the
junior girls’ 100 metres and placed
fourth in the 200m.
Meanwhile, Paul Martin was simply
unbeatable in the hurdles. He earned
gold in the senior boys’110m event in a
time of 14.62 seconds after qualifying
in first place in the preliminaries. His
second hurdles gold came in the 400m
following a time of 54.20 seconds.
Simone Martin, Paul’s younger sis-
ter, also posted a medal-winning effort.
Simone captured a silver medal in the
midget girls’ 80m hurdles in a time of
12.26 seconds after posting the fifth-
best qualifying time.
Pine Ridge track coach Amanda
Miles-Berry noted having five medal
winners from five athletes was quite an
accomplishment.
“The whole team is tremendously
dedicated and hard working, but Paul
and Tabia had the outstanding perfor-
mances. Both are returning next year
and are looking forward to returning,”

OSHAWA — Amber Cushnie of William Dunbar Public School is in
full stride as she crosses the finish line while competing in the Durham

Senior girls’squad
crowned with provincial
‘AAA’title in Hamilton
BY AL RIVETT
Sports Editor
PICKERING —The St. Mary
Catholic Secondary School Mon-
archs girls ruled the soccer pitch in
Ontario this season.
The Monarchs captured gold at
the Ontario Federation of School
Athletic Associations (OFSAA)
‘AAA’ Girls’ Soccer Championships
with a decisive 3-0 victory over Holy
Cross from St. Catharines in the
championship game Saturday.
Eighteen of the top girls’ soccer
teams in the province competed at
Hamilton’s Mohawk Sports Com-
plex June 6 to 8.
Althea Jones scored 21 seconds
into the championship contest to put
the Monarchs in flight. The quick
goal had the net effect of deflating
Holy Cross — a team St. Mary had
defeated in earlier pool play. Eight
minutes later, Tonia Coletti scored to
extend the lead, while Jones added
an exclamation point with a second-
half marker.
St. Mary was simply dominant at
OFSAA, winning all seven of its
matches. In the process, the Mon-
archs scored 24 goals and allowed
one. Ashley Visser recorded six
shutouts.
OFSAA gold seemed like a far-
off illusion as little as a year ago
when the Monarchs were beaten in
the semifinals of the Lake Ontario
Secondary School Athletics
(LOSSA) playdowns. Looking back
to that time, head coach Marc Vis-
conti said the talent was there, but
the ability to produce a disciplined,
all-round team effort wasn’t.
This year, however, a change in
attitude, a renewed commitment to
teamwork and the lingering disap-
pointment of a lost season were the
critical ingredients in the Monarchs’
golden season.
“We told them to check their egos
at the door (at the start of the sea-
son),” said Visconti. “We told them if
they thought they could walk
through the year with no competition
they were sorely mistaken. I think
we learned from our mistakes in the
past. We told them to play as a team,
the way we know how to play, and I
think that was the difference. That,
and we had a team full of talent. I
think we looked so much more pre-
pared than the other teams were.”
In the semifinal game Saturday
morning, Danielle Tanner — with
her 10th goal of the tournament —
and Brittany Gaudet scored in a 2-0
win over A.B. Lucas of London.
The Monarchs scored a 3-0 quar-

St. Mary Monarchs cap season
with provincial soccer crown
ter-final victory over another London
school, Oakridge. Tanner scored
twice, while Coletti added the other.
In pool play, the Monarchs were a
perfect 4-0. St. Mary faced a tough
test in the opening game against
Lockerby from Sudbury, but emerged
with a 2-0 win. Adrianna Cornacchia
and Tanner scored.
Next, St. Mary blanked Holy
Cross 3-0. Much like in the final, the
Monarchs scored early, just 51 sec-
onds into the game, and had two
goals on the scoreboard by the 1:40
mark. Tanner scored twice, with
Jones adding a single.
St. Mary blasted Leaside from
Toronto 6-0 in Game 3. Melissa
Gaudet and Tanner each scored
twice, while Nicole Ruta and Gian-
netta Savarino each added one.
The Monarchs closed out prelimi-
nary-round play with a lopsided 5-1
win over Loretto Abbey from Toron-
to. Tanner scored a pair of goals, and
Savarino, Jones and Abbie Visser
chipped in with one apiece.

some,” said Guerrieri from his
Pickering home Monday after-
noon. “We’ve been waiting since
Mosport to make sure we were
ready for this race. We did as
much as we could to be ready. It
was a product of hard work. We
knew what we had to do and it all
came together.
“To do it in front of a huge
crowd, with all the FI drivers and
mechanics watching, it was a re-
ally important race to win.”
Guerrieri — who drives for the
LM La Scuderia racing team —
noted some quick thinking from
his mechanics just five minutes
prior to race time possibly gave
him the best chance to win. With
the rain starting to pour while on
the starting grid, the mechanics
made some fast alterations to the
car’s suspension, making the car
easier to handle on the slick rac-
ing surface.
“It’s all about how the car han-
dles in last five to eight laps of the
race,” he explained. “With the
tires wearing down, it’s all up to
the suspension to do the work.
You have to set up the suspension
for the last five laps. They made a
superb setup of the car and it real-
ly worked out for us.”
Qualifying in third spot, Guer-
rieri got off to a slow start.
Schraenen broke away from the
pack and carried as much as a
five-second lead in the early
stages of the 15-lap event. Mean-
while, Guerrieri and Dumoulin
jockeyed for second, with Guerri-
eri’s NGCC/Cherry Beach Sound
Vector taking over sole posses-
sion on lap six. Two laps later,
Guerrieri passed Schraenen and
later held off a hard-charging Du-
moulin to take the checkered flag.
Guerrieri started the race series
season in Mosport several weeks
ago, finishing second behind Du-
moulin. The series reverts to
Saint-Eustache, Que. in three
weeks. In July, the series will be
one of the featured races during
the annual Molson Indy weekend
in Toronto, which brings the top
Indy car drivers to the city.
Guerrieri hopes to make the
jump to the USF 2000 racing se-
ries in the United States next sea-
son.
she said.
Leigh Cushnie posted a sixth-place
finish for Pine Ridge in the senior girls’
400m hurdles and was eighth in the
100m hurdles.
Pine Ridge’s senior girls’4-x-100m
relay team of Charles, Cushnie, Martin
and Allison Bourne finished ninth in
the preliminary meets, missing one of
eight spots for the final.
Other noteworthy performances by
Pickering high school athletes:
• Dunbarton High School’s Nikkita
Holder captured the gold medal in the
midget girls’ 80m hurdles in a time of
12.02 seconds and also earned bronze
in the 100m, and a fourth-place finish
in the 200m.
• Dunbarton’s Jaime Peters won
bronze in the midget boys’ 100m and
also placed fifth in the 200m;
• Dunbarton’s midget boys’ 4-x-
100m relay team of Peters, James
Thompson, Robert Bell and Jamal
Lindo finished eighth; and
• St. Mary Catholic Secondary

SHARK SIGHTING
Greg Norman had a big
week around our nation’s capi-
tal. The Forecaddie thought it
was terrific to see The Great
White’s 47-year-old dorsal fin
on the weekend leaderboard at
the Kemper Open. Norman also
unveiled plans for a $20 mil-
lion course in Leesburg, Va.,
and he fired a few barbs at the
PGA Tour, which asked for his
membership card at the end of
last season when he fell shy of
the required 12 PGA Tour
starts.
Norman said he was told he
could accept only seven spon-
sor exemptions this season. The
Tour says that’s just not so. In
May, the policy board raised
the maximum number of starts
for non-members from seven to
10. Norman’s starts in the
Masters, PGA and U.S. Open
tournaments do not count
against his 10. So, in essence,
the Shark can play 13 events
this year. Because he received a
10-year Tour exemption with
his 1993 British Open triumph,
he can re-obtain his card for
2003 by playing 12 events. The
$64,000 question is, did anyone
bother to tell the Shark all this?
‘WAYNING’
INTEREST
Wayne Grady,the 1990
PGA champion who turns 45 in
July, has the golf bug again.
Now it’s a matter of trying to
find someplace to play. Grady
will do his best to piece togeth-
er a competitive schedule, even
if it means Monday qualifying
on the PGA Tour or playing on
the Buy.com. Grady wants to
play after a few years enjoying
being home and five or six
years of feeling indifferent
about competing.
“It’s hard to explain to any-
one,” Grady said. “If you don’t
want to play and you don’t
have it in your heart, then it
doesn’t matter what anyone
says, you’re not going to play
any good. You’re trying to
compete against 150 other guys
that would kill you for a spot,
so if you don’t have it in you, it
doesn’t matter. I didn’t have it
for a long, long time and I did-
n’t want to be out here. I just
wanted to go home.”
TAP-INS AND LIP-
OUTS
Kudos to 66-year-old Gary
Player,who will try his hand
at 36-hole British Open quali-
fying now that he has lost his
exemption as past champion,
which expires after 65.

Bringing U.S. Open to Bethpage shows public golf has come a long way
he scene is an Italian restaurant in
Munich, Germany. It’s late August 1999,
two years before Retief Goosen would
take the golf world by storm with his U.S.
Open victory at Southern Hills in Tulsa,
Okla.
In a corner alcove, Zimbabwe’s Mark
McNulty and Belgian sports psychologist Jos
Vanstiphout are discussing how best to han-
dle pressure down the stretch in a major championship.
Goosen calmly sips his coffee.
McNulty’s and Vanstiphout’s voices grow louder.
Then McNulty leaves the restaurant, slamming the door
behind him. Vanstiphout follows him out.
Goosen remains at the table, unperturbed by both the
argument and the departure of his dining companions.
“Man, I was cross,” McNulty said the next day. “I
was just so wound up that I had to get out of there.”
And what about Goosen? “I don’t think he even
knew we were arguing. He never gets involved in
stuff like that. That’s Goose. The restaurant could
have been burning down and Goose would have
handled it as a minor irritation rather than a major
incident. It takes a lot to light a fire under the
Goose.”
■■ ■
Sitting in the midst of a
blazing argument might not
compare to the pressure of a
major golf championship, but
it does give a glimpse into the
sort of personality it takes to
win.
Last year, Goosen’s surprise
victory in Tulsa proved he could
handle the pressure. This year, it will
be no surprise if he puts up a stout
defense of his title June 13-16 at
Bethpage State Park’s Black Course.
Since his 2001 win, Goosen has
claimed three more titles and finished
second to Woods at the Masters.
Through the end of May, he led the
European Tour’s Order of Merit with
more than $1 million in only eight
tournaments. For this quiet South
African, years of hard work are pay-
ing off.
■■ ■
Ernie Els grew up playing
against Goosen and probably knows
him better than any other player.
“Retief doesn’t like confronta-
tion,” Els said. “He’d rather stand
over a 3-foot putt to win a tour-
nament than answer a difficult ques-
tion from the press.”
Louis Martin, chief executive of the
South African Tour, has been watching
Goosen’s game since the late 1980s. He agrees with Els.
“He doesn’t like fanfare or having to
make public speeches,” Martin said. “I
mean he did well when he gave the talk at
this year’s European Tour dinner (where
he was recipient of the player of the year
award), but I can assure you he was dread-
ing that for at least two days beforehand.”
Goosen doesn’t deny that he doesn’t
care for the hoopla that goes with winning
a major championship. The thought of trading places with
No. 1-ranked Tiger Woods is almost unbearable for
Goosen.
“I can’t imagine what it’s like to be Tiger Woods,” he
said. “I don’t want to. I’m sure he has a great life, but I
don’t think I would like to live the way he’s living, with
bodyguards everywhere.”
Goosen is recognized in his homeland, but hardly ever
in England, where he spends half his time. In South
Africa. Goosen has always been
second fiddle to Els, and he does-
n’t mind one bit.
“Because Ernie won the world
junior championship, he has natu-
rally attracted all the attention
from an early age. That’s fine
with Retief,” Martin said.
■■ ■
Goosen’s transformation from
tournament winner to major
champion is well docu-
mented. There are plenty of stories on how
Vanstiphout finally got Goosen to believe in
himself. Despite Goosen’s supposedly
placid nature, he used to beat himself up
on the course.
“He really didn’t know how good he
was,” Martin said. “Everyone said there
would be no stopping him, because he
always had the talent. What people don’t
realize, though, is that he was his own
worst enemy. He would get so uptight. If
he hit a bad shot, he wouldn’t be able to let
it go for about three or four holes, by
which time the damage was done. It’s
only since he started to handle adver-
sity, to bounce back from a
bogey, that he’s become a win-
ner.
Els said Goosen defi-
nitely will be a chal-
lenger at Bethpage.
“He has grown so
much in confidence
since the U.S.
Open. Just look at
what he’s done
since last June.
He’ll be a factor
this year and in
every major
championship for
a lot of years to
come.”
More impor-
tant, Goosen
agrees. “I see
myself with more
of a chance of win-
ning it now than I
did last year,” he said.
At Bethpage, the
quiet South African has
a chance to accomplish
something not even
compatriots Gary Player or
Els have: successfully defend-
ing a major. If he does, just don’t
expect cartwheels on the 72nd
green.
BY JAMES ACHENBACH
Golfweek
nce upon a time, private clubs
dominated the American golf
landscape. The first 71 U.S.
Opens were contested at private clubs.
Finally, in 1972, the national champi-
onship went to Pebble Beach Golf
Links, a course that the public could
play — for the hefty price of $350.
The U.S. Open was staged at another
pricey resort course, Pinehurst No. 2,
in 1999. Still, in the 101 Opens so far,
no “true” public facility has played
host to the national championship.
But times have changed, and golf
has changed as well. Never has there
been such a symbol of “golf for the
people” as the 2002 U.S. Open at
Bethpage State Park in Farmingdale,
N.Y., a five-course facility owned by
the state of New York. Regular green
fees at Bethpage Black, the Open lay-
out, are $31 and $39 on weekends.
Any senior 62 or older can play for
$19 during the week.
Public golf has come a long way
since Bobby Jones won his Grand
Slam in 1930. At that time, golf in
America was synonymous with private
courses. When the National Golf
Foundation conducted its first tabula-
tion of U.S. courses in 1931, the
results were predictable: 1,243 public
facilities and 4,448 private facilities.
Fast-forward 70 years to 2001.
Ti ger Woods, who grew up without
the privileges of Bobby Jones, is golf’s
newest hero. The game has diversity
of gender, race and socioeconomic
class. The 2001 NGF numbers: 11,391
public facilities and 4,315 private
facilities.
David Fay, executive director of the
U.S. Golf Association, grew up as a
public-course golfer in Tuxedo, N.Y.
He has possessed a lifelong fondness
for Bethpage.
Fay initiated the USGA’s interest in
bringing the Open to Bethpage, even
though technically he doesn’t have a
vote. (U.S. Open courses are picked
by the USGA championship commit-
tee and formally approved by the
USGA executive committee.)
“If it doesn’t work out,” Fay joked,
“I’m prepared to hear it called Fay’s
Folly.”
Fay’s Fandango may be more
appropriate. Interest in this U.S. Open
is unparalleled, and Bethpage will play
host to more people than any course in
the event’s 102-year history.
“My three revenue generators,”
said Bernadette Castro, commissioner
of parks and recreation for New York,
“are parking, camping and golf. This
is going to send golf through the roof.
Everybody is excited.”
The USGA put about $3.5 million
into Bethpage. Most of the money was
used for renovation, a project master-
minded by architect Rees Jones, who
donated his services. The USGA also
agreed to reimburse the state for lost
green fees during the renovation and
the tournament.
Castro admitted that bids from
year-round concessionaires were high-
er because of the U.S. Open, and she
said the state also receives revenue
from the sale of USGA merchandise.
“We have to watch every nickel.
We can’t afford to give away any tax-
payer money,” Castro said.
New York gladly made one conces-
sion: It would not raise green fees at
Bethpage Black for three years, except
to keep pace with inflation.
“Taking the championship to a pub-
lic facility with reasonable green fees
makes a lot of sense,” Fay said. “Is it a
symbolic move? Yes. There can be
some good things that come out of
symbolism. Clearly the majority of
people in the U.S. are public facility
players, and the majority of the golf
facilities in the U.S. are public facili-
ties.
“One could almost say that it’s the
quintessential public facility. It proba-
bly is safe to say that the atmosphere
is gonna rock.”

Band Festival
comes to Orono
June 14 to 16
BY JACQUIE McINNES
Staff Writer
DURHAM ––It seemed like
a big idea for a little town but
three years after its inception,
Orono’s Great Canadian Town
Band Festival is back again and
expected to be making more
noise than ever.
Friday, June 14 to Sunday,
June 16, the annual festival will
be back in the north Clarington
community, filling the streets,
parks and fairground with the
sound of music.
“We are trying to put togeth-
er a major international festival
with the best of amateur and
professional musicians,” says
organizer Dave Climenhage.
He admits taking on a project
this size, with an
annual operating
budget of about
$100,000, is a
challenge.
“We’re very
pleased we’ve
been able to do
this three years
now. We need to
grow the audi-
ence. We defi-
nitely had a lot
of growth last
year, about
2,000 over the
weekend. A lot
of people are
from the GTA
but we do see
people from
Quebec and the
States.”
This year the
festival received
a $70,000 grant
from the
Province’s Tril-
lium Foundation
in recognition of
the front-end
costs of starting
up this type of
cultural event, says Mr. Climen-
hage. The grant follows a
$55,000 contribution from Tril-
lium last year.
“They’re really trying to get
us established. They realize in
the early years the audience size
is too small to pay the bills,” he
says. “But they won’t do that
forever.”
The Trillium Foundation’s
mandate will allow it to provide
financial support of the festival
for up to five years, says Mr.
Climenhage. In that time, the
event’s organizers hope to bring
enough attention to the festival
to begin carrying operation
costs on its own. That’s going to
mean getting the message out
about the quality of the venue.
“People don’t realize what a
high-level program this is,” he
says. Already the festival has
won a number of awards and is
“probably the most important
festival going on,” for Canadian
band music, says Mr. Climen-
hage.
“It’s harder to raise an audi-
ence in Clarington than say,
Toronto. On the other hand,
from a historical point of view,
it all happened in smaller com-
munities,” so Orono is an ideal
venue.
From about 1790 until the
end of the 1930s, bands with
brass, woodwind and percussion
instruments performed regularly
in small towns throughout the
country. It’s this tradition of the
concert band as a mainstay of
the community that the festival
is celebrating.
This year’s festivities begin
on Friday at 7:30 p.m. on the
Orono Fairgrounds with a spec-
tacular military tattoo featuring
some of Canada’s most hon-
oured military bands and contin-
ue through the entire weekend
with a parade kicking off Satur-
day’s line-up of top Canadian
bands. Sunday at 10 a.m. a
multi-faith service begins a day
of community band music.
The event has also attracted
“one of the best brass musicians
Canada has these days,” says
Mr. Climenhage. Alain Trudel
will not only be “performing
some solos impossible for most
mortals” Sunday morning but
will lead a master class for brass
musicians from both high school
and community bands at Bow-
manville High School Friday af-
ternoon.
Tickets for the event are $15
for Friday, $15 for Saturday, and
$10 for Saturday after 10 p.m.
Sunday’s events are by dona-
tion.
Children under 16 are free
when accompanied by an adult.
Tickets can be purchased at
the festival or at participating
retailers in Orono.

The Animal Guardian Society (T.A.G.S.) is a registered charity dedicated to the health and welfare of displaced animals.
T.A.G.S. is a completely volunteer program. T.A.G.S. also assists families by helping them to select an appropriate pet
that will suit the needs of their family environment. From house training puppies to behavior training , volunteers are
ready to make sure that the new dog makes the transition smoothly. All animals adopted through our program are
veterinary health checked and vaccinated. Dogs are spay and neutered and the adoptive family will receive an 8 week
behavior training program. As our program does not currently have a shelter, we depend on foster homes. Foster homes
provide a loving environment for the animal until they are adopted to a forever home. If you need assistance in pacing a
dog, selecting a pet, have a training behavior question or would be interested in the wide variety of educational material,

City thinks ‘globally,
acts locally’
BY MARTIN DERBYSHIRE
Staff Writer
PICKERING —The City of Pickering is
adding its name to a growing list of Canadian
municipalities calling on the federal govern-
ment to commit to a treaty reducing greenhouse
gas emissions.
The Kyoto Protocol was negoti-
ated in December 1997, setting
new legally binding emission re-
duction targets for greenhouse
gases around the globe.
While countries agreed to dif-
ferent individual reductions, Cana-
da committed to six per cent below
1990 levels, to be achieved some-
time between 2008 and 2012. The
U.S. committed to seven per cent
and the European Union to eight
per cent, but the U.S. has since de-
cided not to meet its commitments.
The protocol will enter into
force once a combined group of
nations, representing 55 per cent
of global greenhouse gas emis-
sions, have ratified it.
More than 70 countries have al-
ready ratified the treaty, but the 55
per cent mark has yet to be met.
Prime Minister Jean Chrétien
has promised Canada will ratify,
but some opposition exists, claim-
ing the costs of reducing the gases
are too high and will hit some
areas of the country harder than
others.
The Federation of Canadian
Municipalities (FCM) says every-
day activities such as driving cars,
heating homes and operating busi-
nesses affect the Earth’s climate
and the quality of the air through
the release of greenhouse gasses
into the atmosphere.
“When we burn gasoline to
drive our cars, natural gas to heat
our homes, coal to make electrici-
ty, or cut trees faster than they can
be replaced, we add greenhouse
gases to the air,” said Jack Layton,
a Toronto City councillor and for-
mer FCM president in a letter to
Canadian municipalities urging
them to endorse ratification of the
protocol.
“Scientists have sounded an
alarm. If we
don’t slow the
amount of pol-
lution going
into the air, our
climate will
change leading
to more extreme
weather and
disruption to
communities...
Municipal gov-
ernment support
for ratification
of the Kyoto
Protocol could
make the differ-
ence as the
Government of
Canada decides
whether to fol-
low through on its international commitment, a
decision expected by year-end.”
And, following Mr. Layton’s urging, Picker-
ing has joined the fight.
“This is one of those issues where we need
to think globally and act locally,” said Ward 2
Regional Councillor Mark Holland, as Picker-
ing council unanimously supported ratifying
the protocol June 3. “This is our opportunity to
be a part of something bigger than our munici-
pality.”

Local service industry employees matched their
skills in the Molson bartenders’ competition. Here,
Kim Sullivan of the Pickering East Side Mario’s
restaurant, negotiates a tight turn on the obstacle
course.
Michael Civello’s luck was matched by the
size of this Spider-Man doll he won at one
of the games of chance.
What’s a festival without midway rides? Pickering residents took advantage
of the offerings at the festival, including (top photo, from left) Kyle, Lynda and
