In presenting her first provincial budget, Finance Minster Janet Ecker, the Pick- ering-Ajax-Uxbridge MPP, an- nounced Monday she would be making the legislation that es- tablishes the University of On- tario Institute of Technology (UOIT) a part of the budget bill. That means if the budget passes, the act that creates the university does too, making the new university’s president, Gary Polonsky, a very happy man. “This is sensational news,” Mr. Polonsky said following a post-budget breakfast in Pick- ering Tuesday morning. “Last May when (then finance) min- ister (Jim) Flaherty announced our funding he became a cham- pion and secured a place in the history of the university. Today he’s joined by another champi- on. Janet will surely be remem- bered for decades to come for her pivotal role in establishing the university.” Calling the plan to tie the new university’s act to the bud- get a “brilliant strategy” Mr. Polonsky applauded the work of Ms. Ecker and Minister of Training, Colleges and Univer- sities Dianne Cunningham. He added the announcement al- lows UOIT to fulfil its promise of being ready for students in the fall of 2003. “Until the act is passed we are unable to function as a true university,” he said. “Now we’re one year away from ac- cepting the first class of stu- dents. My concerns have van- ished.” While the new university is the big local winner from Mon- day’s budget, smokers, big business and a good portion of taxpayers will be taking a bit of a hit. Cigarettes are going up $9 per carton as part of a joint fed- eral-provincial tax hike and personal and corporate income tax cuts previously promised for 2003 are being delayed one year.JANET ECKER ‘Sensible, balanced approach.’ ANDREW IWANOWSKI/ News Advertiser photo You’re going down!

Lorne Sabsay, lawyer for the accused murderer, said in his opening statement yester- day that while Mr. Poland, 38, killed Andrea Schneider in the garage of their Ajax home, the act was committed “in the heat of passion”. Mr. Poland has pleaded not guilty to second-degree mur- der. Although “it’s obvious” he is responsible for his wife’s death, “he did not murder her,” his lawyer said. He suggested to the Superi- or Court of Justice jury Mr. Poland is guilty of the lesser crime of manslaughter: an un- intentional killing or an inten- tional killing in the heat of pas- sion “caused by sudden provo- cation”. Ms. Schneider was found dead June 7, 2001 in the trunk of the family car parked at the Durham Centre shopping plaza, at Hwy. 2 and Harwood Avenue. Court has heard the couple lived on Perfitt Crescent with their two sons, Thomas and John Michael, and daughter Stephanie, who has Batten dis- ease, a debilitating fatal illness that causes blindness and fre- quent seizures. Mr. Poland was a stay-at- home father and the primary caregiver to Stephanie, who cannot walk and is fed through tubes, while Ms. Schneider was employed as secretary to the Royal Ontario Museum’s board of trustees. While Mr. Poland and Ms. Schneider appeared to be a normal loving couple, the fam- ily was under “enormous pres- sure” caused by the strain of caring for their sick daughter, and other marital stresses, he said. Stephanie’s suffering domi- nated the family and each dealt with the pressure in their own way. For Mr. Poland, it was an “almost obsessive devotion”, Mr. Sabsay said. He said the family went through a difficult time after moving from Toronto to Ajax, leaving behind a support net- work of friends and family. But, in the months prior to Ms. Schneider’s death there were “signs of renewed hope”. In March, Stephanie had an operation to reduce constant vomiting, caused by her ill- ness, and in May the couple were planning to return to Toronto, buying a house in High Park. “Even though life appeared to be getting better... James and Andrea were spiralling towards destruction, in a vortex of stress and pressures and secrets which would only be revealed in that garage that morning,” Mr. Sabsay said.

Clinic critics cry foul Parent calls for trustee’s resignation BY MIKE RUTA Staff Writer DURHAM —A local school council chairman called for Oshawa Trustee Susan Shetler’s resignation Monday night for her efforts in opposing the health clinic at G.L. Roberts Collegiate and Vocational Insti- tute. Speakers criticizing the board for allowing the Oshawa Community Health Centre to lease space to run the ‘Wellness Centre’ once again dominated public question period during a Durham District School Board meeting. One man called it a “referral agency for abortion mills without parental consent”, while others accused the board of handing out condoms in the classroom and called for full disclosure to trustees of lease agreements in schools. The board’s senior staff over a year ago made the decision to allow the clinic at the Oshawa school. But, staff and board chairman Elizabeth Roy said the clinic operates separately from the school, and that anything that takes place between stu- dents and clinic staff is confi- dential. Karen Dearborn,the school’s SCC chairman, chided Trustee Shetler for not having the cour- tesy to call her or the executive Two sides spar over Pickering waterfront proposal BY MARTIN DERBYSHIRE Staff Writer PICKERING —A lot of public dollars have gone into public space around French- man’s Bay and allowing 83 townhouses to be built on top of it would be “devastating” to the City’s plan for a nautical village on the waterfront, an Ontario Municipal Board (OMB) hearing was told Mon- day. As one of several public deputations to the board Mon- day night, Pickering Ward 2 Regional Councillor Mark Holland told board members $3.2 million from the City and $1.2 million from outside sources was invested in im- provements around the bay, in- cluding the millennium square and boardwalk, because people “bought into the vision” for a ‘Great Lakes nautical village’ surrounding the end of Liver- pool Road, not because they wanted to see a large number of townhouses. “Residential development should complement rather than overwhelm,” he said. “We’ve gone to great lengths to im- prove the area so the commu- nity can be proud of it and it can identify Pickering as truly a place that is special and See BUDGET page A2 See POLANDS page A5 See SHORE page A4See TRUSTEES page A4 While local impact still to be determined, Ajax official calls funding ‘good news’ DURHAM —About $700 million more in hospital funding in the provincial budget is being viewed as “good news” by a local official. “The government has identified health care as a priority and that’s good to see,” said Bruce Cliff, chief operating officer at the Rouge Valley Ajax and Pickering hospital site. During the budget speech Monday, Finance Minister Janet Ecker announced health-care funding will increase 7.3 per cent, to $25.5 billion, while money for hospi- tals will go up 7.7 per cent to $9.4 bil- lion. The seven-per cent increase in hos- pital funding is “certainly good news for us”, Mr. Cliff said. “We have to find out the details on how it will be allocated out.” The government also announced more money for capital work and Mr. Cliff said discussions will be held with Ministry of Health officials in that re- gard. “More money is better for us,” Mr. Cliff stated. “We really need to wait and see what funding increase we re- ceive this year.” Ontario Hospital Association offi- cials are also praising the government, calling the increased funding a “signif- icant step forward in meeting patient care needs across Ontario”. Association chairman Leo Steven added, “Providing funding is adequate, this will signifi- cantly enhance the ability of hospitals to plan and deliver patient-care services.” Other health-care highlights include permit- ting private clinics to provide more services, in- cluding diagnostic services such as MRI and CT scans. Mr. Cliff said a larger role for private clinics won’t have any affect on the hospital. “Anything that takes pressure off our emer- gency department or other departments is cer- tainly welcome,” he noted.

Read up on it at durhamregion.comAJAX — Photo radar is needed to lower speeding on 400-series highways, say Ajax councillors. Council last week endorsed a resolution from the Township of South-West Oxford calling on the provincial government to reinstitute photo radar. “Anything we can do to sup- port photo radar, we should,” Ward 2 local Councillor Joe Dickson said. Since photo radar was re- moved from highways by the Progressive Conservative gov- ernment in 1995, speeding has increased, he added. “I drove stock cars as a kid, but I’m scared to drive on 400 highways,” Coun. Dickson said. Mayor Steve Parish con- curred, saying support for the resolution was “appropriate”. Officials call for return of photo radarBudget makes room for new university in Durham But, Ms. Ecker told business leaders at the breakfast the Eves government is still committed to following a path to lower taxes. After four consecutive years of growth exceeding five per cent, Ontario saw just one-per cent growth in 2001. Ms. Ecker said the Province needed to react despite numbers that indi- cate an economic turnaround has already taken hold. “There was a blip that we had to respond to,” she said. “We had to take a sensible and balanced approach... but we did not sacrifice our long-term goals for the sake of this tempo- rary situation.” In fact, the plan to cut small business corporate taxes to 5.5 per cent in January 2003 will go ahead as scheduled and Ms. Ecker said another 50,000 peo- ple will be exempt from person- al income taxes through an en- richment of the ‘Ontario tax re- duction’ program. Other highlights of the fourth balanced budget in a row from the Province include an over seven-per cent increase in hospital funding and $117 mil- lion in new funding for educa- tion. Ms. Ecker also said in the wake of Walkerton and with other questions being raised about provincial water quality, another $500 million will be spent over the next two years on safe and clean drinking water initiatives. “We kept the budget bal- anced and focused on our prior- ities of health care, education and protecting the environ- ment,” she said, adding all eco- nomic indicators point to growth of three per cent this year and four per cent next year, allowing the Tories to get back to the same tax-cutting platform they have followed since the Common Sense Revolution began in 1995. Ms. Ecker said an economic statement updating the state of the Province’s books would come this fall and another bud- get is expected next spring.

Leaders of the group have begun to address the escalating problems of religious prejudice in a statement released recently by the governing council of the Baha’i International Communi- ty, the Universal House of Jus- tice. “The governing body has written this statement to say that it’s time we got past reli- gious intolerance and preju- dices,” said Sue Misiewicz, sec- retary of the Baha’i community in Ajax. According to Ms. Misiewicz, Baha’is believe all religions, although they may have different practices and tra- ditions, are fundamentally the same. “We want to get religious or- ganizations and leaders to think carefully about the unity of reli- gion and to move beyond that. If we look at how unified reli- gion is, we can move beyond that,” she said. Baha’i is the youngest of the world’s independent faiths, with a central theme that hu- manity is one single race, and that the day has come for its unification in one global soci- ety. Members believe God has set in motion historical forces that are breaking down tradi- tional barriers of race, class, creed and nation that will, in time, give birth to a universal civilization. Ms. Misiewicz said there are more than 3,000 members across Canada, including about 40 in Ajax. She noted the Universal House of Justice decided to come out with the statement be- cause of ongoing recent tur- moil. “It just came out of the reli- gious strife in the world right now. It’s important for religious leaders to look at it,” she said. According to a press release, the eight-page statement identi- fies religious prejudice as a grave obstacle to peace, and warns failure by religious lead- ers to address the issue will lead to “unthinkable consequences”. The statement also calls at- tention to the progress made worldwide in combating racism, gender discrimination and unbridled nationalism, and the contrast with the world’s continuing failure to make progress in eliminating reli- gious prejudice, as well as ac- knowledging the enormity of the challenges still remaining in removing them.

Local Baha’is call for universal religious unity Board balances budget, but fears funding ‘crisis’ BY MIKE RUTA Staff Writer DURHAM —Public school board trustees ap- proved on Monday a bal- anced budget for the next school year, but it took al- most $6.5 million in re- serve funds to do it. And Ron Trbovich, the Durham District School Board’s business superin- tendent, said in an inter- view if the review of the Province’s education fund- ing formula does not ad- dress inequities for Durham students, the board could not lean on re- serves again next year. “We’re putting all of our hope, in an informed man- ner, on their review of the funding formula,” Mr. Tr- bovich said. The Durham board re- ceives about $500 less per pupil than the provincial average, he said, and if it received just $200 more, that would mean about $12 million extra. If the review, expected to be finished in roughly five months, does not result in more local money, Mr. Trbovich said “we would have a crisis in education” in Durham and cuts to spe- cial education and the reg- ular day programs would be required. The $507,382,670 oper- ating and capital budget in- cludes 30 new educational assistants at a cost of al- most $1 million, which makes for a $3-million board subsidization of provincial special-educa- tion funding this year. But the board’s special education advisory com- mittee chairman, Laurie Beaton, said the number still falls short, noting members had called for 40 EAs as the minimal need in local schools, still reeling from severe cuts to special education in recent years. “We’re always asking for a Cadillac model and lately we’ve been settling for a Chevette, and maybe even a Cavalier or a Corsi- ca,” she said in an inter- view. “I don’t think we’re back to the Cadillac yet.” Nevertheless, she was “thankful” for the 30 posi- tions, and applauded trustees and staff for their efforts in keeping special education at the forefront of priorities. Mr. Trbovich said the number of new EAs is not set in stone as staff will monitor the need in schools once the September enrol- ment picture is clear. Trustees also approved $80,000 requested for school athletic programs, $650,000 for the board’s e- learning program and $30,000 for a payroll clerk. Budget reductions were unchanged from the first draft, including two admin- istrative officers, five school-based support workers, and other posi- tions for a total cut of $670,000. The working reserves fund was buoyed by a $2.2 million injection Mr. Tr- bovich, in his report to trustees, said came from the Province with last month’s grant announce- ment in the form of “fund- ing adjustments”. He called it a “big, big assist”. However, Brock- Uxbridge Trustee Nancy Loraine said the board still has “a huge unmet need” in terms of the $5.5 million in special-education support claims the board says the Province is not funding. The board took $3.2 million from its working reserves funds, roughly $2.5 million from the re- tirement reserve funds, and emptied the roughly $300,000 in the Bertels- mann award reserve fund. Almost $500,000 came from the utilities reserve fund. Mr. Trbovich said the board’s $78.3-million capi- tal budget would have a “huge impact” in Durham both economically and in terms of student spaces. Roughly half of that amount is taken up by a new Whitby high school and a major addition and upgrades to Uxbridge Sec- ondary School. The school maintenance budget is set at $3,946,100, including $1.3 million for science lab upgrades and additions at Eastdale Col- legiate and Vocational In- stitute in Oshawa and An- derson Collegiate and Vo- cational Institute in Whit- by. However, 71 mainte- nance projects valued at $10.73 million are on a list for future years. A.J.

Now they want to put 83 townhouses in the middle of our nauti- cal village... it would be devastating.” The OMB hearing on the redevel- opment plan for marina lands on the south end of Liverpool filled the audi- torium at the central branch of the Pickering Library Monday night. Members of the public spoke both in support of and against the Pickering Harbour Company’s (PHC) plan to build 66 townhouses where the marina stands today. A separate plan for 17 townhouses with commercially con- vertible ground floors has already been approved for the east side of Liv- erpool and the City wants only 26 homes to be built on the west side, all with commercially convertible ground floors. The harbour company only wants eight of the 26 homes fronting Liver- pool to be commercially convertible and would like to move the existing marina boat cleaning and ground stor- age operations to a vacant property on the east side of Liverpool. That would allow room for 40 more townhouses on the existing marina lands. Bay Ridges resident David Matthews also spoke out against the plan. “They’ve done nothing to enhance the area in the past,” he said. “It’s anoth- er example of (the City’s) plans going up in smoke.” Among those supporting the harbour compa- ny were the cur- rent executive of the Pickering Yacht Club and the real estate agent represent- ing the owners of the 17-home development across the street. “As present- ed, the plan by the Pickering Harbour Compa- ny is well thought out,” said Gary Peck. “It’s the best land utilization plan I’ve seen; I wish I’d drawn it.” However, Toronto geology professor Nick Eyles expressed concerns over the environmen- tal damage more housing around the bay would cause. “(The PHC plan) doesn’t take into consid- eration the prox- imity of the site to wetlands,” said Mr. Eyles. “The develop- ment plan is simply business as usual with scant recogni- tion of the envi- ronmental sensi- tivity around the bay.” The board hearing began last Monday and is expected to wrap up by the end of this week.

Ivan Cuicuira, head of Durham Region’s emergency measures office, told councillors the Region and municipalities want a 10-km zone for the Dar- lington and Pickering plants, as opposed to three kilometres. The 10-km area at the Pickering station includes Pickering,Ajax, parts of Whitby and Scarbor- ough, Mr. Cuicuira noted, while the three-km zone touches a small portion of Ajax. “The Region’s position is public alerting should be ex- tended to the full 10 kilome- tres,”he said, calling it a “safety issue for our residents.” OPG has agreed to pay the $1.7-million cost for the three- km zone at both plants. For Pickering, that would include installing 29 outdoor sirens on poles and 6,750 tone-alert ra- dios for homes and businesses. Three of the siren locations would be in Ajax. The sirens would be set off by the same radio signal used with the ra- dios, Mr. Cuicuira stated. “Implementation of the three-km zone is going ahead. We ’re waiting for a frequency to be approved by Industry Cana- da,”he added. For the 10-km zone, the Pickering site would include 113 outdoor sirens and 68,500 tone-alert radios. “The government will make a decision by the end of the year and they will probably indicate who will pay for it. If it’s us, we’re prepared to do it,”Mr. O’Brien said. Mr. Cuicuira pointed out a nuclear emergency is a “low probability, one in 10 million re- actor years. But there’s always a potential for a severe off-site ac- cident.”The sirens would be on separate poles than streetlights and are about 10 feet (three me- tres) higher. “They’re spaced so there’s no gaps in service,”he added. The siren system is used around all nuclear facilities in the U.S., as well as for emer- gency weather notification. With an alert, people would be advised to go indoors and wait for more information. Also on Monday, Pat Mc- Neil, senior vice-president of strategy and support, confirmed the delay in the restart of the Pickering ‘A’side’s Unit 4, the first of the four laid-up reactors. He said it’s now scheduled to come back online late this year. Shore proposal sparks debate at Pickering hearing MARK HOLLAND Residents have ‘bought into the vision’of a nautical village at foot of Liverpool Road. SHORE from page A1 Trustees stand behind school-based health clinic director of the health centre before get- ting involved in the issue. “This clinic is not just there for birth control... and I take offence to spending so much time on this,”she said. Ms. Dearborn called for Trustee Shetler’s resignation “for pushing this so far”. This was the second consecu- tive board meeting the issue has been raised during question period. Trustee Shetler in an interview said the request was “ridiculous,”and sug- gested since there is little parental in- volvement in high school councils, SCCs in secondary schools are not rep- resentative of parents. She did not feel it was necessary to phone the SCC chairman, she said. “How many people is she represent- ing, three, four?”she asked. Trustee Shetler added the clinic does not belong in a school because handing out contraceptives is contrary to the board’s position to teach absti- nence. The clinic is needed, but should not be in a school, she said. Mike Kane, a G.L. Roberts teacher, identified himself as a born-again Christian who attends an evangelical church in Oshawa and spoke in favour of the clinic. He said there have been “countless times”when he has brought students there for medical or psychological help. In an interview he said “the things that are happen- ing there are simply things that happen at any doctor’s office.” In the end, Pickering Trustee Paul Crawford’s mo- tion that future or renewed wellness centres or leases in- volving medical practices come before trustees at a public meeting was lost in a 5-5 vote.

Polands ‘loved each other’ the home led to an argument that ultimately triggered the vi- olence, he said. “All the hurt and stress... simmering beneath the surface exploded into anger, and horri- ble things being said and... done by two people who actual- ly loved each other,”Mr. Sab- say said. “You will hear about the frustrations, tensions and se- crets that burst forth in the heat of an argument which, tragical- ly, became much more.” In a phone conversation after his wife’s death Mr. Poland told a neighbour his wife tripped over a bike as she was leaving for work June 7. Sandra Bridger testified Mr. Poland told her that after falling his wife began yelling at him and an argument ensued in the garage. Mr. Poland told her Ms. Schneider hit him with a chil- dren’s plastic golf club or a hockey stick, she said, but he couldn’t remember what hap- pened next. A week after the slaying Ms. Bridger learned Ms. Schneider had been having an affair with a man named Colin, who lives in New York, court heard. In subsequent phone conver- sations, she asked Mr. Poland if he knew about the affair. Mr. Poland said ‘No’and got angry, Ms. Bridger testified. In other testimony, a defence expert contradicted the Crown’s pathologist who con- cluded one of two fatal blows to Ms. Schneider’s head was like- ly caused by the cutting edge of an axe, found in the trunk with her body. Dr. David King testified both wounds are consistent with the blunt edge. POLANDS from page A1 AJAX —Keeping the books can be intimidating, but it’s a necessary aspect of business.

Audley Public School c. 1907 The original Audley Public School was originally built in 1840 at the southwest corner of Taunton and Salem roads. It would be replaced on the same site three more times until a brick structure was erected in 1866. The building would serve as a school for the next 98 years. Many of the students in this photo were descendants of the original settlers.

Premier Ernie Eves has invited representatives of the two opposi- tion parties to join him in govern- ing, but this is not exactly the equivalent of a free trip to the Caribbean. The Progressive Conservative premier has appointed former New Democrat premier Bob Rae and former Liberal health minister Murray Elston to the board that oversees the giant, provincially- owned electricity transmission network, which had been criti- cized particularly for lavish pay- outs to senior staff. Mr. Rae is respected for his in- tellect even by many who had no time for his policies and Mr. El- ston has been almost a party leader, starting several months after other candidates in a 1993 race and still losing by only nine votes on the final ballot, so both have status. Mr. Eves invited the pair as his way of trying to show he is open- minded and will listen to all sides. He has made it clear he will con- tinue to make the key decisions and Tories still dominate the board anyway. He also will hope — it has been done before — bringing in opponents will take away some of the heat the Tories have been feel- ing over the board. Liberals and New Democrats may feel slightly more restrained in criticizing deci- sions by a body that includes some of their own. When the opposition parties next criticize the board, the Tories will be able to counter, “are you knocking Bob Rae,” and “don’t you agree with Murray Elston?” The Tories will have difficulty convincing the public they gen- uinely want to hear all sides, how- ever. They had many opportunities before to appoint opponents to the hydro board and waiting until now suggests they are doing it only be- cause they are in trouble. The Tories also make hundreds of appointments a year to boards, agencies and commissions and opponents criticize them often for naming too many of their own and few Liberals and New Democrats. Now, when the opposition par- ties complain more generally too many of the jobs go to Tories, the government will be able to de- mand “what about Mr. Rae and Mr. Elston?” Mr. Eves’s predecessor as pre- mier, Mike Harris, also appointed opposition politicians when he felt it would do him good. Mr. Harris wooed over Dave Cooke, one of the most capable and hardest-hitting of the New Democrats, to be co-chairman of a commission he set up to help push through his reforms of education. Mr. Cooke had been education minister and government house leader and was about as severe a critic of the Tories as anyone in the legislature. But he leaped into his assign- ment for the Tories with zest, say- ing teachers’unions the NDP sup- ported were mired in the past and urging them to get on side with Mr. Harris. Mr. Harris also brought in Floyd Laughren, who had been fi- nance minister in Mr. Rae’s gov- ernment, and made him chairman of the Ontario Energy Board. Whenever an opposition party complained only Tories are ap- pointed, Mr. Harris countered with the names of Mr. Cooke and Mr. Laughren. Politicians who accept jobs from another party also bestow some approval on it and this is the case with Mr. Rae and Mr. Elston. But their own parties rarely complain, because they are sensi- tive about reproaching a former colleague and being seen as wounded. Why do politicians accept posts from opponents they have reviled? Mr. Cooke was feuding with the then newly-chosen NDP leader, Howard Hampton, who would not find him a role befitting his ability, and may have wanted to get revenge by helping the hated Tories. Mr. Laughren is capable and there has been no better-liked member of the legislature in re- cent years. A government of any stripe would have been glad to help him and itself. Some, including Mr. Rae and Mr. Elston, will be motivated part- ly by the satisfaction they can get from still contributing to public life, the power and prestige that often goes with it, and the impli- cation they are so valuable gov- ernment keeps calling them back. It also looks good on their re- sumes and they may get further calls to serve and more director- ships elsewhere — there is even some money in it. All one big happy hydro family Mixture of political parties on board offers validity to premier Eric Dowd At Queen’s Park shouston@durhamregion.com P PAGE A6 NEWS ADVERTISER,WEDNESDAY EDITION, June 19, 2002 Proud members of While she certainly had many other concerns to worry about, Finance Minister Janet Ecker clearly remembered where she came from Monday. In delivering her first budget, only a month after being named minister of finance by Premier Ernie Eves, the Picker- ing-Ajax-Uxbridge MPP did Durham a big favour. She in- cluded the bill to create the University of Ontario Institute of Technology (UOIT) within her budget bill. UOIT had Durham support at the highest level as it was Ms. Ecker’s im- mediate predecessor as finance minister, Whitby-Ajax MPP Jim Flaherty, who introduced the bill to finance UOIT 13 months ago. When the budget passes in the legislature, as it easily will with the majority Tories backing it, the creation of UOIT is complete. For Durham College/UOIT president Gary Polonsky, “this is sensational news... until the act (to create UOIT) is passed, we are unable to function as a true university. Now, we’re one year away from accepting the first class of students.” The “brilliant strategy”, as Mr. Polonsky terms it, to tie the UOIT bill to the budget, sidesteps the need to take the univer- sity bill through the time-consuming process of committee hearings. Mr. Polonsky has been eager to open UOIT for stu- dents in September 2003 to coincide with the increased de- mand for university spaces created by the ‘double cohort’, the combined graduation of Grade 12 and OAC students in the same year. Now that will happen. Time will tell if Ms. Ecker, the first woman to deliver a provincial budget, essentially came to the legislature to bury the Common Sense Revolution or simply delay it. Of course, she had the full support of her boss, Mr. Eves, himself famous for his tax-cutting budgets of the late 1990s. In many ways, this was a tax-and-spend budget that would have been right at home alongside some of NDP premier Bob Rae and Liberal premier David Peterson’s budgets. The one big difference is spending is exactly offset by revenues so no deficit results. An additional sin tax on cigarettes is a no- brainer guaranteed to raise much-needed revenue without any political headaches to follow. More money for education, health care and, most significantly given the Walkerton disas- ter, for safer drinking water, should please many of the critics who have accused the Tories of insensitivity. The decision to put off by a year the second phase of the highly controversial private school tax credit could well sound the death knell of a plan Mr. Eves criticized heavily while on the campaign trail. It’s also believed Ms. Ecker, who was ed- ucation minister when the plan was announced, does not favour the school credit idea. In addition, income tax and corporate tax reductions, promised for Jan. 1, 2003 have been pushed back one year. Ms. Ecker’s budget merely reflects the economic times she is forced to deal with. It’s a responsible plan. Editorial &OPINIONS PICKERING NEWS ADVERTISER JUNE 19, 2002 Editorial e-mail responses to shouston@durhamregion.com Letters to the editor e-mail responses to shouston@durhamregion.com Honest labourer beats a politician any day To the editor: Re: ‘Pickering council plans wage hikes,’June 12. I read with interest the news item regarding the planned raises for Pickering’s mayor and council- lors. What struck me most were the opening lines: “Should the mayor be paid the same as a roads main- tenance worker? Should a City councillor’s salary be comparable with that of a mailroom clerk?” Why should there be any differ- ence? Is a person serving in the po- sition of mayor any more impor- tant than a person working to maintain the roads? People are of equal value no matter what posi- tion they fill. If a road maintenance worker is good at his or her job, why should he/she not be compen- sated accordingly? The way the questions were posed offends my sensibilities. As a society, we place more value on so-called exalted positions. I’m not denying the mayor and councillors work hard. But, to say they are worth more than a general labour- er is specious to say the least. I have worked at numerous labourer positions. I worked hard to earn my wages. While no longer in a labourer’s position, I feel slighted by such statements. Any and all work is equally valuable, when it is done to the best of one’s ability. I would rather associate with a labourer putting in an hon- est day’s work than a politician any day. By the way, since we give the mayor and councillors power to determine their wages, why not do the same for mailroom clerks and road maintenance workers? Or bet- ter yet, reverse it, and put the politicians in the same position as the workers. David Porter Pickering Will Eves fulfil promise to nurse practitioners? To the editor: As a member of the Progres- sive Conservative Party and a reg- istered nurse currently enrolled in the Ontario nurse practitioner pro- gram, I felt encouraged to vote for Premier Ernie Eves during the leadership race in part due to his responsible stance toward reform- ing health care in Ontario. I was particularly impressed with his position toward the use of nurse practitioners as a cost-effec- tive way of dealing with increased demands for medical care that he stated during his campaign and re- peated in the throne speech. I was disappointed to find out the health and long-term care minister, Tony Clement, saw fit to only assure positions for around 20 nurse practitioners in underser- viced areas of the province. Fur- thermore, I saw no mention in the official news release of the inclu- sion of any nurse practitioners in the newest Family Health Net- work recently opened in Oakville. Given the scope of the need for health services, it appears Mr. Eves is taking a position contrary to what he described during his campaign. When first entering the nurse practitioner program, I thought the nurse practitioner’s role was going to be part of the solution to- ward improving access to health care. I now feel we will only be utilized in desperate situations. In September 2002, I will graduate from the program with little hope of utilizing the training and skills I have worked so hard to acquire. I’d like to know if there is any plan or timetable for the appropri- ate use of nurse practitioners in the province?

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.

NEWS ADVERTISER, WEDNESDAY EDITION, June 19, 2002 PAGE A7 P AJAX ––Veridian Corpora- tion, the hydro distribution com- pany owned by Ajax, Pickering and Clarington, expects to save its customers about $300,000 a year after receiving an A and A- from two credit rating services. The electricity distributor re- ceived an A credit rating from Dominion Bond Rating Service and an A- rating from Standard and Poors. The ratings are the first assigned to the company since it was formed in 1999. “We are very pleased with these ratings,” said John Wiers- ma, president and CEO of Verid- ian Corporation. “They provide confirmation we are prudently managing the business on behalf of our shareholders and that the rating agencies believe we are well-positioned to prosper with- in the regulatory framework for electricity distributors.” The company decided to obtain a credit rating to improve its buying clout when purchasing elec- tricity from the Indepen- dent Electricity Market Operator (IEMO) in the new open electricity market. Veridian Corporation distrib- utes hydro to more than 90,000 customers in Ajax, Pickering, Clarington, Port Hope, Uxbridge, Belleville, Beaverton, Sunderland and Cannington through Veridian Connections Inc.

This is a special year for Community Care as it is also their 25th anniversary. “We plan to honour our founders, renew old friendships and celebrate our success,” says Elizabeth Fulford, executive director. “We want to reach out to those who were/are involved in Community Care; we’d love to see them.” Lunch, special presentations and displays, followed by a walk through the gardens are planned for the afternoon. Community Care began in 1977 with its Home Support Program---a steering committee of the Social Planning advisory group received funding to extend a program to help seniors and those with special needs, which had already begun in Ajax-Pickering and Brock, throughout Durham Region. Then in 1978, the COPE Mental Health Program (formerly known as C.I.V.P.) joined Community Care; this made it possible to support adults experiencing mental health difficulties in communities throughout the Region. And finally, the Respite Program began in 1987 as the need for providing relief to adults caring for family members in their homes emerged; the Adult Day Programs followed in 1992 (Ajax) and 1998 (Newcastle). Community Care is a non-profit charitable organization, governed by a board of directors, staffed by a small number of employees and a team of more than 2,200 volunteers. Eight thousand Durham residents are recipients of various services such as meals on wheels, transportation, relief for caregivers and support for those experiencing mental health issues. If you are interested in attending the annual general meeting, please call 905-404-2224 ext. 0 (cost for lunch is $10).

Daily Struggle I struggled with my weight all my life. Up and down, up and down, like a yo-yo. I thought to myself, I am an intelligent woman, why can’t I control something as simple as food? I knew that I was dealing with more than just weight. I had tried the national diet chains. I lost weight, but I was hungry and cranky. I am a former diet ‘leader’. I had a lot of knowledge about weight loss, but it didn’t motivate me. After working so hard to lose 80 pounds, I had gained back 30. I heard a testimony from a Positive Changes Hypnosis customer on the radio. I was impressed with the weight she had lost and the other changes she had made in her life. I had carried that 30 pounds for six months. I couldn’t get a handle on it. I picked up the phone and called Positive Changes. 100% Satisfied While on diet programs I was haunted by a feeling that my weight was waiting around the corner to pounce on me. Now that I have lost my weight with Positive Changes Hypnosis, I know I’ll never gain it back. Hypnosis makes it that simple, easy and relaxed. Stop Suffering I suffered when I was overweight. I went through a period of time when I was almost afraid to leave my home. Hypnosis helped me overcome those irrational fears. Today I feel strong physically and emotionally.

On Thursday, June 20, Parkway Retirement Home is offering an audiology presentation, featuring in- formation on hearing and hearing instruments. For more information or to register, call Donna or Betty at 905-426-6603. Seniors ready to celebrate in PickeringStudents can graduate with green parties This is the month for gradua- tions, banquets, and other year- end socials. Most schools dis- play environmental slogans, but how well do teachers and volun- teers measure up when it comes to creating little or no garbage from graduation parties? For many functions, the same people who organize the details of the event also clean up the mess. By the end of the evening this group is usually too tired to separate resources, with the re- sult being everything is general- ly shoved into large green garbage bags for quick disposal. An event organizer should ensure a ‘3Rs’task force person be on the committee. Being on the ‘Rs’team can be fun and offer opportunities to be re- sourceful, imaginative, and a chance to improvise to ‘do the best with less’. The 3Rs task force, apart from initial input and arranging for recycling containers to be placed beside garbage cans, takes over at the end of the event by separating the clutter so there won’t be any garbage. Un- touched food should be wrapped and sent to an organization or taken home; food scraps off reusable or paper plates should get placed separately in a pail for composting. And don’t for- get, those paper plates can be composted too. Decorations packed away for reuse; while paper, beverage containers, and cardboard all can be recycled. Even plastic bags and other plastic film can go to depots that accept them. As annual events basically have the same decorations, it makes sense to store them in boxes for their use in subsequent years. The order of the 3Rs is re- duce, reuse, recycle. Recycling was promoted first as it is a vi- sual image, but we try to reduce, reuse, then recycle what is left over. Basically we have to raise the common level of environmental understanding by making the connection that by failing to reuse, recycle or compost some- thing, it ends up in landfill. The Recycling Council of Ontario emphasizes natural re- sources must be used more judi- ciously if we are to meet the needs of growing world popula- tions and expanding industries. Only by keeping value-added products and packages in circu- lation longer, can we adequately address pollution problems and resource limits. • Reduce — Be creative and look for ways to reduce the amounts of items needed. You’ll save money too; • Reuse — Do not lose sight of reuse as a means of conserv- ing resources; and • Recycle — Separate re- sources to save energy. Dave Johnson, organizer of the Frenchman’s Bay Festival, submitted a written request to the City of Pickering to have re- cycling bins in place and picked up from the event. Also, the City’s recycling system included four large green carts to gather organics such as unwanted food. The 2525 Pickering Canadian Army Cadet Corps helped edu- cate everyone with literature and information about recycling.

Resi- dents using the units could face fines under the Ontario Fire Code, Mr. Evered noted. For more in- formation, call 905-683-7791.

Lincoln Lariviere completed work on the new album, ‘Betsy Lynn-Lin- coln Lariviere Sing Country’, which was recorded on his own L&L Records label at his Ajax studio earli- er this year. The music is all duets with Lynn, who has performed at the Grand Ole Opry in Nashville, Tennessee. The 64-year-old singer said it was different to perform an album solely of duets, something he’s never done be- fore. He noted, however, the experi- ment worked beautifully. The 10-track disc has songs mostly provided by longtime collaborator and writer Roy Payne. It also contains arrangements of songs from some of his country and western heroes, including the lead-off track ‘Good Hearted Woman’, a trib- ute to Waylon Jennings who made the song famous, and ‘I Can’t Help It (If I’m still in love with You)’ by the leg- endary Hank Williams Sr. Speaking of Williams, Lariviere says his next studio album will be a tribute to the country and western icon, featuring some of his lesser- known tracks. His latest studio album followed a successful tour of England in which he played two shows in Manchester and Lancaster and another in Weymouth. “They love country music over there. There were close to 400 people at each show,” recalled Lariviere, adding he sold a number of cassettes and CDs at each show. “The people over there welcomed us.” Lariviere is performing on a coun- try music boat cruise along the Toron- to waterfront Sunday, Aug. 18. Cost is $45 per person, which includes the cruise, buffet dinner and entertain- ment. Proceeds go to benefit the Head Injury Association of Durham Region.

In their opening two games, the Panthers outscored the opposition by a whopping 14-0 count. The Panthers second game, against Ajax Warriors 2, was a closely-fought affair. Pickering, how- ever, was able to capitalize on its scoring chances to earn a 2-0 victo- ry. The Pickering under-11s exhibit- ed great ball movement, excellent goaltending and solid defence. Kayla Schroeder scored a brilliant goal in the first half on a long, hard kick over the head of the goaltender. Ajax opened the second half with an all-out push to score the equalizer. Panthers’ defenders Bethan Davies and Marissa Smith, however, thwarted several scoring threats by making critical checks. Keeper Tiffany Allen made several spectacular lunging saves to pre- serve the lead. The Panthers seemed to draw inspiration from the sound defence and began to wrest control of the play. Lauren Giles, Gillian Clayton and Karin Toomsalu moved the ball up the field, while Katherine Rum- boldt and Kayla Schroeder kept it pinned in the Warriors’ zone with strong clearing kicks. At the 50- minute mark, forward Kelly Craig crossed the ball to Karlie Doucette whose point-blank shot was stopped. However, Doucette pounced on the rebound for an in- surance goal. The under-11 Panthers opened the 2002 league season with a con- vincing 12-0 victory over the North Yo rk Hearts. This represents the first year the girls have played together at this competitive level.

Stingy defence keys Dolphins victory over Markham Raiders ANDREW IWANOWSKI/ News Advertiser photo Ajax-Pickering Dolphins Yannick Carter (4) and Nathan Silverburg (2) hone in on a pass intended for Markham Raiders’ Trevor Belrose (24) during colle- giate football action in Pickering Sunday afternoon. The Dolphins won their first game of the season 20-1 over Markham. Well-travelled former Panther has eye on long stay in Sabres organization PICKERING —After living a nomadic life while playing in six different Ontario Hockey League towns, a former member of the Pickering Boyer Pontiac Panthers is looking forward to a less unset- tled existence at the next level. Sean McMorrow, 20, signed a professional contract with the Na- tional Hockey League’s Buffalo Sabres June 1 — the last possible date NHL clubs can sign their entry draft picks of two years ago before they’re dumped back into this year’s draft. For the former Panther, signing a contract took a lot of weight off his shoulders as it ended two years of uncertainty about whether he would ever sign with the Sabres, which drafted him in the eighth round, 258th overall. “I was really excited and re- lieved,” said McMorrow, a de- fenceman turned right-winger who’s known for his physical play and ferocious hitting. “The Sabres were an organization I wanted to be part of and it was the second- closest team to home in the NHL. They’ve been really loyal to me since I was drafted. I’ve attended all the team’s conditioning camps since I was drafted.” The 6-foot-4, 210-pound Scar- borough resident expects to be in the Sabres’ training camp in Sep- tember, and will likely see action in some exhibition games. He will, however, end up with the Rochester Americans of the American Hockey League for the start of the hockey season. But, beginning the 2002-03 season in the AHL is OK with him. “Yeah, I’m really excited about it,” he said. “I’ve always known about the St. John’s Maple Leafs and the Hamilton Bulldogs (also part of the AHL), so I’m pretty ex- cited to be part of the league.” McMorrow, who played with the OHA Ontario Provincial Ju- nior ‘A’ Hockey League Panthers during the 1998-99 season, has been a well-travelled player since being drafted by the Sarnia Sting in the second round of the 1999 OHL draft. That year, he played a half season in Sarnia before being sent to the Kitchener Rangers. In the summer of 2000, the Rangers traded him to the peren- nially rebuilding Mississauga Ice Dogs. After several tumultuous months there, McMorrow asked to be traded and was dealt to the Kingston Frontenacs in Novem- ber of 2000. But, his days in Kingston would be short-lived as he was traded for the third time that season, that time to the Lon- don Knights in January 2001. He stayed with the Knights until the OHL’s 2002 trade deadline when he was on the move once more, going to the Oshawa Generals. Although there were many changes in addresses during his OHL career, McMorrow said he was grateful to land with the Gen- erals, which had the greatest im- pact on his junior career. Not hav- ing scored a goal with his previ- ous OHL teams, he bagged six with the Generals and added two assists. “I think it was because of Os- hawa that things worked out in McMorrow looking to grow some roots See PANTHER page B10 News Advertiser file photo Sean McMorrow is hoping to stick within the Buf- falo Sabres organization after signing a contract with the NHL club earlier this month. The contract ended two years of uncertainty for the former mem- ber of the Pickering Panthers.

WE’D LIKE TO INTRODUCE OURSELVES Did you know that there is a place with open doors and warm hearts for every lost, homeless or unwanted animal? We are the Pickering, Ajax, Whitby Animal Services and we provide another, although perhaps less well known, life saving service in our community. Just imagine if there was nobody you could call about the hungry stray dog that was hanging around on your street. Or nowhere to take the newborn kittens that you found in the supermarket parking lot. Nobody to turn to if your beloved pet was lost. Nobody to try their best to find a loving new home and family for the homeless. Nobody to provide shelter and food and care to these animals in the meantime. And nobody to take the unpopular and heart wrenching responsibility of providing the kindest way out for suffering, homeless, unadoptable creatures. We do not claim to have perfect solutions of the often heart wrenching problems that both people and animals in our community face on a daily basis. But we can and do continue to strive to make things better for those that suffer. With your help and support, we stand an even better chance of making a difference! Please help us help our fellow feeling creatures by being a responsible, caring pet owner and a protector of nature! S.

If not, they wouldn’t last on this job very long. They do what they can to help people. I think a lot of peo- ple appreciate that. We get let- ters from people who thank us (for being there for them and their loved ones). That’s what I want our department known for “ caring and professional- ism.” He believes many have a better understanding and appreciation for firefighters since September 11th, when hundreds of New York City firefighters lost their lives while trying to save thousands after the World Trade Center towers were struck by high-jacked air- liners. “The impact of that horrific day remains strong. It had an impact on citizens,” admits Chief Douglas. “They’re more aware of our role. They under- stand that firefighters are going in when people are going out.” Pickering firefighters remain forever changed. “The guys watched (televised reports) as the last steel beam was taken away (from the site of the World Trade Center) ... It does- n’t matter where in the world you are, when a firefighter goes down, you want to be there somehow.” Those intense emotions underscore the bond between firefighters. “They spend long shifts on duty together. Your crew becomes almost a second fami- ly,” Chief Douglas explains. “You become very tight. You look after each other, when you go to a fire scene, when you’re dealing with the public. It’s a brotherhood, I guess ... You see very few firefighters quit.” “Pickering has a proud tra- dition of hiring from its volunteer ranks. In the past, many who joined as volunteers also had careers,” says Chief Douglas, who him- self began as a volunteer in 1974. “Now most who join as volunteers want to be full-time firefighters. They’re still dedicated to com- munity firefighting and helping people, but today it’s a career.” It’s a career that’s characterized by the need to be ready, as firefighters begin each shift uncertain of what they’ll face, prepar- ing for an alarm en route to the scene. “The dispatcher sets off whatever halls have to respond and updates them on the way to the call,” Chief Douglas notes. “You have a good inkling of what you’re going to find - fully ablaze, someone who’s having trouble breathing. Mentally, the firefighters prepare themselves for what they have to do.” For every firefighter, there are memories of lives saved and lives lost. “The ones you remember are the ones that touch you personally. We’ll all had house fires and we’ve all had deaths,” says Chief Douglas. Yet firefighters understand the need to triumph over painful memories. “You seem to be able to go on to the next one,” Chief Douglas says thoughtfully. “It’s not that you get hard. You do your best and get ready to be there for the next.” By Linda White Special to The News Advertiser When talk began about estab- lishing a volunteer fire department in the Township of Pickering in the early 1950s, Don Lynde had been out of the army just a few years and was helping his father run a general store in the community of Dunbarton. He signed on with another two dozen volunteers and kick started a career that would span three decades. Pickering’s first fire chief, Mr. Lynde witnessed construction of the first fire hall, battled Hurricane Hazel, approved the town’s first aer- ial truck and helped nurture a strong and proud fire department. “I had no intention whatsoever of becoming a professional firefight- er,” admits Mr. Lynde, 78. “I was postmaster at my Dad’s store until 1957. That was my full-time job.” He remembers the days when a fire committee that operated under the Township Council agreed to pay volunteers $1 an hour for the first hour of a call and 75 cents for each additional hour. They would collect payment once a year. The first fire hall was construct- ed at the corner of Rosebank and Don Lynde: First fire chief recalls the early years Kingston Roads. It was a ‘quonset hut’ that could be constructed quickly and had been popular during the war years. “The furnace was on the ceiling, so all the heat would be up top and our feet would be freezing,” recalls Mr. Lynde, who was elected fire chief after the first stayed on just a couple of months. In those early years, when the population hov- ered around 3,000, Mr. Lynde and Deputy Fire Chief Jim Glendenning were the only full-time firefighters. They relied heavily on volunteers, who never let them down. “Initially, Jim and I would go off on our own. It was pretty lonely,” says Mr. Lynde. “But the volun- teers always showed up. You’d be amazed at how many showed up, even in the middle of the night ... Our big calls were in the spring with all the grass fires. It was a completely rural community.” The fury of Hurricane Hazel in 1954 was an unforgettable exception. It devastated southern Ontario and left a wake of damage in Pickering To wnship. Mr. Lynde recalls rescu- ing people stranded on the roofs of their homes, starting off with just a 12-foot wooden boat. During his years with the department, Mr. Lynde is grateful that no firefighters lost their lives in the line of duty, though several suf- fered serious injuries. He remains forever touched by those who lost their lives, particularly children. “When you have a family of your own and when you lose a child (in the line of duty), well you would just go home and look at your kids,” the father of three and grandfather of four says quietly. “There were some grisly jobs, but it was part of the job.” Mr. Lynde retired in 1984 at age 60 so his son Lyle could join the department, as there was concern about them working together. “Initially, the sound of a fire siren made me jump,” says Mr. Lynde who now volunteers at Ersk- ine Cemetery through the Dunbar- ton-Fairport United Church. “I met and worked with a lot of wonderful people. Firefighters were always out to help people.” Firefighters at the Head- quarters on 1660 Bayly St. hold the banner proud cele- brating the 50th Anniversary.

Keep up the great work for our community. By Linda White Special to The News Advertiser The role of today’s fire- fighter has changed dramatical- ly since the early days of Pickering Fire Services. They are trained for just about any emer- gency imaginable and are equipped with some of the most advanced firefighting equip- ment available, including a new fire truck and thermal imaging technology. The first truck was a four- wheel drive pumper, recalls retired Fire Chief Don Lynde, who headed the department for three decades. Because the com- munity had no water services, an oil tanker was purchased in Montreal, sanded down, paint- ed and used as a backup water truck. “The next big truck was purchased in 1964. It was a tilt truck and cost less than $200,000,” reports Mr. Lynde. “In 1974, we purchased our first aerial truck.” Mr. Lynde and retired Deputy Chief Jim Glendenning were the only full-time firefight- ers for a number of years, oper- ating out of a fire hall at the cor- ner of Rosebank and Kingston Roads. They relied heavily on volunteers, who attended train- ing meetings each Thursday evening. He lists improved breath- ing apparatuses and the Jaws of Life as top among the improve- ments he saw during his tenure. When Fire Chief Bill Douglas began as a volunteer in 1974, he was one of the first dis- patchers. Firefighters used ‘plectrons’ (comparable to today’s pagers), and wives would phone one another to alert them of alarms. When Chief Douglas became full-time in 1976, three men worked at Station 5 and two men at Station 2. Occasionally, firefighters would work alone at Station #2 if oth- ers were off and also depended on volunteers. The role of the firefighter has evolved over time. “We did- n’t get many medical calls in the past,” notes Chief Douglas. “Ambulances usually attended them. Now, we have defibrilla- tors and medical training. Nearly 40% of our calls are med- ical.” Technology has improved dramatically. “The breathing apparatus was just coming in when I started,” recalls Chief Douglas. “Some firefighters pre- ferred not to wear them. Some smoke would get in your mask if it wasn’t on air-tight, though it did filter most of it out.” Infrared cameras have recently been introduced. “They’re used for search and rescue and for finding hidden fires in walls - ‘hot spots’. They’re also for our own protec- tion, to find our own guys,” Chief Douglas explains. “Clothing and equipment has come a long way,” he adds. “In the old days, we had a plas- tic black helmet, hip waders and a big coat. Now we have much safer equipment that is lighter and offers better protection.” Training has also become more technical. In the past, training included pulling hoses, pumping, tying ropes and knots. Firefighters would climb an extension ladder called an ‘auditorium raise’ and go over the top while it was held by men below, reports Chief Douglas. The importance of fire pre- vention has become a top prior- ity. “The emphasis on fire pre- vention has changed dramati- cally,” says Chief Douglas. “Today, we recognize that public education is the key to preventing fires. Kids are taught it at school and bring it home to their parents. They talk about how they would get out of the house in the event of a fire and plan their escape. We need to keep focusing on education. That’s the key to fire prevention.” The Evolving Role of Pickering’s Firefighters A modern, professional division, Pickering Fire Services protects citizens and businesses within the 340-square kilome- tres of the City’s urban and rural areas. A division of the City of Pickering, it includes profes- sional administration, fire sup- pression, fire prevention, and training and communications units to ensure quick, profes- sional emergency response. It is also dedicated to providing public fire education and pre- vention programs. Pickering Fire Services has a staff of 76 full-time firefight- ers, 26 part-time firefighters, four dispatchers and four administrative staff. Fire Prevention has a staff of five, as well as two training officers. Fire Chief: William T.

(Head coach) George Burnett and (for- mer assistant coach) Mike Futa gave me a chance to show my skills. With Oshawa, I was allowed to play more roles than I usually played. With the other teams, I played as an en- forcer. In Oshawa, I played on the top two lines,” he said. McMorrow will be training both on the ice and off in preparation for training camp. Since mid-May, he’s been working out in a gym and has skated once a week. In July, he plans to increase his skating regi- men to three to four times a week with other OHL and some NHL players in Toronto. He’s also been invited to work- outs in Buffalo this summer where he will work with one of the club’s strength coaches.

Worn brake parts. Postponing needed brake service, in addition to being a safety hazard, can escalate the cost of a braking system overhaul. 2. Tired windshield wiper blades. Don’t wait for a rainy day to replace worn blades. 3. Burned out lights. Can you see and be seen? Check all of your lights regularly to be sure. 4. Clogged filters. Scheduled replacement of air, oil, gas, fuel, transmission and other filters extend car life and improves performance. 5. Worn spark plugs. Worn plugs waste gas and increase exhaust emissions. They also cause the engine to run poorly. 6. Corroded battery cables. Corroded cables and a weak battery cause starting trouble. Have battery and charging system checked if the engine turns over slowly. 7. Glazed belts, rotten hoses. A slipping belt can affect engine cooling, the alternator, power steering and air conditioner. Replace worn belts before they let you down -- brittle or rotten cooling system hoses can led to overheating. Others, like vacuum and power steering hoses hinder performance. 8. Neglected cooling system. Periodic servicing of the cooling system helps prevent deterioration of radiator or heater core. 9. Leaking shock absorbers. Worn shocks or struts affect ride control and can cause shorter tire life. 10. Damaged CV joint boots. These rubber boots protect the critical CV joints that deliver power to your wheels. They should be inspected regularly and replaced as needed. 11. Leaking muffler. Have your car put on a lift occasionally to check the muffler and other parts of the exhaust system. 12. Tired tires. Worn tires are dangerous. Proper inflation, alignment and balance will extend tire life. 905-420-5788 Fax: 905-839-7455 1-800-263-4431 www.pickeringtoyota.com 557 Kingston Rd., Pickering MON., TUES., THURS., FRI. 7:30 - 6:00 WED. 7:30 - 8:00; SAT. 8:00 - 3:00 365 Bayly Street West Ajax, Ontario L1S 6M3 Tel: (905) 428-8888 Fax: (905) 428-8904 SERVICE HOURS MON. - THURS. 7:30 a.m. - 9 p.m. FRI. 7:30a.m. - 6 p.m. SAT. 9 a.m. - 3p.m. VicVic Most-Wanted Vehicle Repairs
