DURHAM ––James Poland was provoked into
bludgeoning his wife with an axe, a jury has decided
in finding the Ajax father guilty of manslaughter.
Mr. Poland, 38, stood with his hands clasped as
eight men and four women on the jury returned the
verdict at 7:20 p.m. Wednesday, after deliberating for
five hours.
As he was told by the foreman he was found not
guilty of second-degree murder as charged, but guilty
of the lesser crime of manslaughter, an emotional Mr.
Poland lowered his head into his hands.
The verdict spared the father of three an automat-
ic life sentence.
Court heard Mr. Poland struck his common-law
wife Andrea Schneider, 38, in the head with an axe
twice inside the garage of their Perfitt Crescent home
during a heated confrontation the morning of June 7,
2001.
Mr. Poland hid his wife’s bloody body, the
weapon and other evidence in the trunk of the fami-
ly Oldsmobile, which he parked a block away at the
Durham Centre shopping plaza at Harwood Avenue
and Hwy. 2.
He later enlisted friend Carlos Almeida to dispose
of the body and car. Instead, his pal phoned police,
court heard.
Mr. Poland, 38, admitted killing Ms. Schneider
but claimed the defence of provocation.
He testified he “snapped, lost it” after his wife hit
him with a plastic hockey stick, kicked him in the
groin, hurled insults and revealed she was having an
affair with a New York businessman and planned to
leave him.
She would take their sons, John-Michael, 12, and
Thomas, six, and Mr. Poland could keep their se-
verely disabled daughter, Stephanie, who suffers

Starting this fall, No. 2
car plant adds Pontiac
model to its lineup
BY MARTIN DERBYSHIRE
Staff Writer
DURHAM —GM has added some
excitement to Oshawa.
General Motors of Canada con-
firmed Wednesday the new 2004 Ponti-
ac Grand Prix will be assembled at its
No. 2 car plant in Oshawa. Production
begins this fall.
“In June 2000, we announced that
the next generation Pontiac mid-size car
would be built in Oshawa,” said GM of
Canada president Michael Grimaldi.
“Since that time, the Oshawa car assem-
bly plants have set the standard for vehi-
cle quality and productivity in this in-
dustry.
“Oshawa Number 2 won the Gold
Plant Award in the 2002 J.D. Power Ini-
tial Quality Study and Oshawa Number
1 placed first in the 2002 Harbour Re-
port as the most productive plant in
North America. With achievements like
this and Pontiac’s performance heritage,
the new Pontiac Grand Prix is destined
for success.”
GM Canada spokesman Richard
James said the Grand Prix would be the
first Pontiac product built in Oshawa
since the 1960s. He also said it would
allow the No. 2 car plant to maintain its
current level of employment, but could
mean more jobs in the future.
“We’re optimistic the vehicle will be
successful,” he said. “If things go very
well and the demand for the vehicle is
there, we do have the flexibility at that
plant to increase capacity.”
The No. 2 plant will continue to as-
semble the Buick Century and Buick
Regal. In June 2000, GM of Canada an-
nounced it would invest almost $300
million to bring a new Pontiac passenger
car to Oshawa.
CAW Local 222 car plant chairman
Jim Hoy said the move “will secure that
much more work for us,” he said.

GM has Grand plans for Oshawa
BY MIKE RUTA
Staff Writer
DURHAM —The University of
Ontario Institute of Technology
(UOIT) really exists.
Married to the
provincial budget
act, which passed
late Thursday, the
act formally estab-
lishing Durham’s
first university as
a legal entity
cleared the legis-
lature — on the
last day of the
spring session.
An “ecstatic”
Gary Polonsky,
UOIT and
Durham College
president, said it
was “a beautiful,
important day” for
Durham and
Northumberland
residents.
“In Ontario
and Canada, every
university has an
act pertaining to it
that is passed in
the legislature and
contains language
about its mission
and governance,
all kinds of stuff,”
he explained in an
interview. “Until
that happens, one
is really not a
grown-up univer-
sity, one is kind of
like an embryo.
And if we put our-
selves in the shoes
of top students
graduating a year
from now, and
they had to choose
between estab-
lished, top-notch
universities, why
would they take a
chance on one that
doesn’t even have
its fundamentals
yet?”
Mr. Polonsky
said the same ap-
plies to profes-
sors, university
donors and re-
search opportuni-
ties: without the
act, the UOIT
would have a
credibility prob-
lem. But with its
passing, he said
the university is
immediately on
par with the Uni-
versity of Toronto
and other respect-
ed institutions
across Canada.
He gave credit
to Finance Minis-
ter Janet Ecker for
incorporating the
UOIT act into the
budget act.
“This is a bril-
liant strategy for
which I credit
Janet Ecker; it was
her idea,” said Mr.
Polonsky.
The UOIT act
could have passed
in December, but did not receive all-
party assent to skip ahead to third
reading. Even its passing in the
shortened spring session seemed in
question.
Mr. Polonsky at the time was
“cautiously confident” it would
pass this time around, but said if it
didn’t, UOIT would not be ready to
play its part in easing student con-
gestion as a result of the ‘double co-
hort’in 2003. That’s when Ontario’s
OAC and Grade 12 students gradu-
ate at the same time, creating an ex-
pected glut of students seeking en-
trance to colleges and universities.
“Now the whole world knows
we will be up and running in a
year’s time, as we said we would
be,” he said Thursday.

PICKERING NEWS ADVERTISER JUNE 28, 2002
How well are you being served by
your local government representa-
tives?
Are municipal councillors respon-
sive to your needs? Does your local
school trustee return calls and dis-
cuss your concerns knowledgeably?
Have you been adequately informed
about development in your neigh-
bourhood, or changes at your son or
daughter’s school?
Your vote is the only one that
counts on election day, but the News
Advertiser shares its views in today’s
edition with our annual report card
on municipal politicians and public
and Catholic school board trustees.
These men and women put their
names forward as candidates in 2000
to solicit your support. In the inter-
vening 19 months, much has hap-
pened on their watch and much can
be determined about their approach,
their successes and their effective-
ness.
That scrutiny, by the voters and a
free press, is an important element of
a democratic society.
Once again, our elected represen-
tatives are being asked the question
on behalf of voters:Are city residents
being served?
The answer, in most cases, is a
clear affirmative.
At Pickering council, Mayor
Wayne Arthurs continues to provide
quiet and effective leadership. He is
articulate, knowledgeable and brings
dignity to the chair, while continuing
to exert influence locally and region-
ally through his experience and keen
awareness of important issues that
affect Pickering and Durham.
Pickering’s regional representa-
tives remain at or near the top of their
games.
Councillor Maurice Brenner is an
effective, active and outspoken repre-
sentative who led the initiative for a
successful waste roll-cart pilot pro-
ject in the Amberlea community.
Councillor Mark Holland contin-
ues to be effective in representing
local interests at City Hall and re-
gional interests at Durham council.
He is informed, connected and vocal
and doesn’t back down. He should
continue to ably serve residents.
Councillor Rick Johnson, who
represents rural constituents in north
Pickering, is still the single-minded
and active representative he’s always
been. He’s big on waste management
and a proponent of the benefits of
Hwy. 407, but raised eyebrows last
year with a personal road develop-
ment project on his Pickering proper-
ty. He clearly miscalculated the reac-
tion the project would stir in the com-
munity and subsequently had to di-
vert attention from local issues when
he and the City were sued by the
Township of Uxbridge over the work.
Coun. Johnson counter-sued and the
controversy currently sits before the
courts. We encourage Coun. Johnson
to get past this episode and turn his
full concentration and energy to im-
portant issues facing his community.
Ward 1 City Councillor Dave
Ryan still brings a quiet and effective
presence to council. He remains in-
formed and decisive while giving
constituents good value for their
money. He stood up on behalf of all
charities during his support of an ill-
advised decision to ban poppy sales
at Pickering Library branches last
year.
Ward 2 City Councillor Bill
McLean has maintained good grades
and provided decent representation
in the second year of his first term.
His professional background helps
him bring a unique perspective to the
table. We look forward to a more ef-
fective third year.
Ward 3’s David Pickles continues
to be on guard for environmental is-
sues in his rural area and beyond and
has been an important voice regard-
ing the airport lands and develop-
ment in the area. He’s knowledgeable
and accessible and serves his con-
stituents well.
At the regional helm, Durham
chairman Roger Anderson continues
to be the area’s top salesman at
provincial, federal and international
levels. He helped marshal support for
the experimental ITER project in
Bowmanville and went abroad earli-
er this year to sell Canada’s bid in
Moscow. He was also a strong advo-
cate for getting the new university in
Durham. Mr. Anderson’s steady lead-
ership and familiar face are exactly
what the Region needs right now.
Pickering residents continue to be
well served at the Durham Catholic
District School Board.
Trustee Jim McCafferty’s practi-
cal and no-nonsense approach is al-
ways rooted in his belief in repre-
senting students and parents and he
isn’t afraid to take an opposing view,
even if it’s unpopular.
Trustee Fran Pereira remains en-
gaged and committed to Catholic
principles at the board level and in
the community. She’s an excellent
representative with an excellent
record. Voters are fortunate to have
her working on their behalf.
At the Durham District School
Board, too many important issues are
not being given the attention they de-
serve as trustees argue constantly
over issues not related to educating
our children.
Pickering Trustee Paul Crawford
is still wasting energy and time on
procedural rules at the board table
while the Durham board continues to
struggle, for example, with a sub-
stantial shortfall in special-education
funding. Mr. Crawford rarely con-
tributes meaningful ideas at the table,
or shares his knowledge with a view
to improving the system.
Jennifer Bridge arrived at the
board table as a bit of a novelty in
2000. Elected while still a high
school student, she showed some
promise in her first year by becoming
engaged in the process and trying to
learn the issues. However, she ap-
pears disinterested at board meetings
and seems to have lost the energy she
brought to the table last year. Though
she continues to vote sensibly, it’s
unfortunate she hasn’t lived up to
that earlier promise.
Taken as a whole, Pickering has
been well represented in the last half
of 2001 and first half of 2002. The
few who have disappointed still have
time to educate themselves, take
leadership roles and adequately rep-
resent their constituents and commu-
nities. Everyone, though, must con-
tinue to provide dedicated and innov-
ative leadership as this term of gov-
ernment winds down in the next year.
Voters, you’ll remember, have the
final say in November 2003.
To the editor:
The weekend of March 9 and 10
my husband and I celebrated our
40th wedding anniversary. That
same weekend a terrible tragedy oc-
curred three kilometres from our
Claremont home. Two-year-old
Alexis Currie was murdered and left
in a bushy area on Westney Road.
This hit many people hard and
although we do not know the Currie
family, we have grandchildren close
to the same age as Alexis and her
sister Robin. Several times we
drove with heavy hearts to the area
where Alexis was found. After the
danger of frost was over, I went and
placed a large beautiful plant with
pink blooms and ribbons well off to
the side of the road. About 10 days
later, I went to water the plant and it
was gone.
I hope whoever stole it realizes it
was placed there in memory of
Alexis.
Doris Burton,
Claremont

Letters to the editor
e-mail responses to shouston@durhamregion.com
from a rare terminal dis-
ease, Mr. Poland quoted
Ms. Schneider as saying.
“I think you’ve arrived at
the proper verdict in this
case, thank you,” Mr. Jus-
tice Robert Scott told the
jury before discharging
them.
Three hours into their
deliberations, the jury asked
for clarification on the legal
definition of provocation.
Judge Scott instructed
them to return a manslaugh-
ter verdict if they found Mr.
Poland was provoked into a
blind rage by a series of
“wrongful acts or insults,”
and that he swung the axe
without any time for his
“passion to cool.”
“Where there is a num-
ber of insults or wrongful
acts, it may be
the straw that
broke the camel’s
back,” the judge
said.
Defence
lawyer Lorne
Sabsay said the
verdict was
“just.”
Mr. Poland
had offered to
plead guilty to
manslaughter
prior to the trial.
“Mr. Poland
has always been
willing to take
responsibility for
the death of his
wife. It’s some-
thing that he re-
grets to this day
and probably will
forever,” he said.
The lawyer
said Mr. Poland
deeply loves Ms.
Schneider and
wishes he could
turn back time
and change what
happened June 7.
“He has a pic-
ture of her in his
cell that he looks
at every day,” he
said.
Renate
Schneider-Sand-
ford, Ms. Schnei-
der’s mother, was
too distraught to
comment on the
verdict.
The Burling-
ton woman and
her husband are
now raising the
couple’s two sons, who
were inside the home when
their mother was killed,
court heard.
Eight-year-old
Stephanie, who has Batten
Disease, lives at a Pickering
group home.
Whitby Jail officials
have allowed the child, who
is blind and can’t walk or
talk, to have occasional vis-
its with Mr. Poland, Mr.
Sabsay said.
Mr. Poland worked as a
butcher and a window
washer before becoming a
stay-at-home father five
years ago, after his daugh-
ter’s illness struck.
Ms. Schneider worked as
secretary to the Royal On-
tario Museum board of
trustees.
The jury was not told Mr.
Poland has a prior criminal
record, which included a
conviction for assaulting a
previous girlfriend in 1992
as well as drug and property
offences that go back 20
years.
Judge Scott also ruled
statements Mr. Poland made
to detectives after his arrest
inadmissible, saying the ac-
cused’s right to remain
silent was violated.
During interrogation,
Mr. Poland initially blamed
his wife’s death on a man,
who he couldn’t identify by
name, who showed up at
their home June 7.
He eventually confessed
during the six-hour police
interview.
“I was having a really
bad day,” Mr. Poland testi-
fied during a pretrial mo-
tion, while describing his
state of mind on June 7.
While in custody at po-
lice headquarters after his
arrest, Mr. Poland three
times asked officers the
score of a hockey playoff
game.
Court heard Ms. Schnei-
der suffered two blows of
tremendous force to the
head, which crushed her
face and skull, and split
open her forehead.
Prosecutors Michael Hill
and Tom Hewitt portrayed
Mr. Poland as a cold, calcu-
lating killer who intended to
murder his wife then “me-
thodically” tried to cover up
the crime.
However, Mr. Sabsay
said his client simply pan-
icked when he realized Ms.
Schneider was dead and
spent the day “flying by the
seat of his pants.”
A date for Mr. Poland’s
sentencing hearing will be
set Thursday.

• Pickering expenses cover the period
from January 2001 to December 2001 and
include items such as mileage, supplies, and
communications.
• Attendance is from June 1, 2001 to June
1, 2002.
• Summaries of the ‘most important is-
sues facing the city’ were based on submis-
sions from the mayor, councillors and re-
gional chairman.
Mayor
Wayne Arthurs
This year: A
Last year: A
Serving his fifth term as mayor after two
terms as a local representative from Ward 3.
Attendance: In Pickering, attended
25/25 special council, 19/19 council, 12/12
committee of the whole, 8/8 planning, 2/3 fi-
nance, 4/4 operations, and 5/5 finance and
operations committee meetings; regionally,
attended 14/14 council, and 12/12 planning
committee.
Expenses: Pickering — $20,028; Region
— $5,191.13
Committees: Chairman regional plan-
ning committee, development charges com-
plaint committee, regional transit task force,
Ajax/Pickering Transit Authority, Durham
Non-Profit Housing Corporation, Canadian
Association of Nuclear Host Communities,
and Veridian Corporation.
Most important issues facing the city:I
will be providing leadership in three key
areas during the coming year. The first being
to ensure our financial house remains in
good order. Slowed growth has created new
challenges in managing our revenue and ex-
penditure streams to provide quality services
and protect municipal assets. Secondly, fu-
ture growth management is a big part of our
go-forward agenda. Thirdly, our recently
completed ‘recreation, parks and cultural
services master plan’ requires careful re-
view, public consultation and planning for
effective implementation in the years ahead.
News Advertiser’s comments:Picker-
ing council works and Mayor Arthurs is a
big part of the reason why. He has continued
to be an effective leader because of his good
rapport with City staff and councillors and
does not get mired in personal battles at the
table. He has become an important voice at
the municipal, regional, provincial and fed-
eral levels on nuclear issues and the plans
for an airport and provincial land holdings in
north Pickering.
Ward 1
City Councillor
Dave Ryan
This year: B
Last year: B
Serving his third term.
Attendance: Attended 24/25 special
council, 18/19 council, 11/12 committee of
the whole, 7/8 planning, 4/4 operations, and
5/5 finance and operations.
Expenses: $5,917
Committees: Chairman of Advisory
Committee on Race Relations and Equity,
Pickering Ajax Citizens Together (PACT) li-
aison, audit committee, public library board
member, Toronto Region Conservation Au-
thority (TRCA) representative, Rouge Park
Alliance representative, Durham police ser-
vices liaison committee, site plan committee
member, budget committee member.
Most important issues facing the city:
The most important issues facing council in
the balance of this term are growth and fi-
nancial management. We need to develop
and execute an overall growth management
strategy that protects environmentally sensi-
tive lands and optimizes the use of devel-
opable lands, including a defined industrial
corridor along Hwy. 407. There is a pent up
demand for recreational and cultural facili-
ties that cannot be accomplished on the cur-
rent tax structure. In addition, we have an
urgent requirement for new infrastructure.
These objectives can only be accomplished
with an expanded tax base with a much larg-
er industrial and commercial component.
News Advertiser’s comments:Coun.
Ryan gives his constituents the most bang
for their buck. His expenses are low and his
involvement and understanding of important
issues facing the City are high. Despite be-
coming the lightning rod for the Pickering
library board poppy issue late last year,
Coun. Ryan stood his ground and fought for
equal treatment of all charities and fund-
raising groups. He doesn’t vote unless he
understands an issue and trusts his col-
leagues for input on their wards.
Ward 2
City Councillor
Bill McLean
This year: B
Last year: B
Serving his first term.
Attendance: Attended 23/25 special
council, 18/19 council, 12/12 committee of
the whole, 8/8 planning, 4/4 operations, and
5/5 finance and operations.
Expenses: $11,273
Committees: Pickering-Ajax-Whitby
Joint Animal Control, civic awards selection
committee, site plan committee, Liverpool
West Community Association.
Most important issues facing the city:
Finding places for appropriate residential
and industrial growth in the city. Ensuring
environmentally sensitive areas in the
growth management study will be protected
and land that is developable, developed.
While Pickering residents have enjoyed a
decade of zero-per cent tax increases, that
has also resulted in road and infrastructure
disrepair, which must be addressed immedi-
ately. We must find money for these pro-
jects. I believe there is room for future com-
mercial growth in the Hwy. 407 corridor. I
will continue to support appropriate and
compatible uses for our waterfront.
News Advertiser’s comments:Coun.
McLean has gotten to know his way around
council this year, as evidenced by his work
on the animal shelter issue that culminated
in council approving a move away from the
current system to a joint two-municipality
operation with Ajax, pending its interest. He
is not as talkative at the table as some of his
colleagues, but his background as a former
police officer and current vocation as a real
estate agent helps him continue to bring a
unique and informed perspective to many is-
sues. The News Advertiser looks forward to
watching Coun. McLean grab the reins and
run with them a bit more now that his com-
fort level is higher.
Ward 3
City Councillor
David Pickles
This year: B+
Last year: B+
Serving second term.
Attendance: Attended 23/25 special
council, 18/19 council, 9/12 committee of
the whole, 5/8 planning, 3/4 operations, and
3/5 finance and operations.
Expenses: $9,899
Committees: Budget committee, Pickering
Public Library Board, advance funding alloca-
tions committee, personnel committee, site
plan committee, Glen Major management plan
advisory committee, Rouge Park Neighbour-
hood Advisory Committee, Ajax-Pickering In-
terim Amalgamated Transit Board, Ajax-Pick-
ering Police Liaison Committee, and City of
Pickering Museum advisory committee.
Most important issues facing the city:
Moving ahead with improvements such as
family change rooms at the recreation com-
plex; continuing to enhance our waterfront; the
new ice pad at Don Beer Area; and parks and
playground upgrades. More recreational op-
portunities for families,youths and seniors. Ad-
dressing public safety for residents through a
new fire station on Brock Road, road improve-
ments, new sidewalks, and pedestrian and park
safety measures. Ensuring growth, particularly
to the north,is guided by the City and residents’
desire for vibrant and safe neighbourhoods in
which to live, work, and play and our desire to
preserve green spaces.
News Advertiser’s comments:Coun.
Pickles is committed to representing the inter-
ests of his Ward 3 constituents, which include
protecting the environment and the rural way of
life. His continued battle for a say in the devel-
opment of an airport in north Pickering
should prove important for residents who
want a voice on the future of the skies above
the municipality.
Ward 1
Regional Councillor
Maurice Brenner
This year: A-
Last year: B+
Fourth term as a regional councillor after
two terms as local representative for Ward 1.
Attendance: In Pickering, attended
25/25 special council, 18/19 council, 12/12
committee of the whole, 8/8 planning, 2/3 fi-
nance, and 5/5 finance and operations; re-
gionally, attended 13/14 council and 11/14
health and social services committee meet-
ings.
Expenses: Pickering — $11,858; Region
— $5,714.59
Committees: Chairman audit committee,
co-chairman Ajax Pickering Transit Author-
ity, Ajax Pickering Partnership/Efficiencies
Committee, Canadian Urban Transit Associ-
ation, Region of Durham children’s advo-
cate, Durham Child Poverty Task Force,
Durham health and social services commit-
tee, president Durham Region Municipal
Non-Profit Housing Corporation, board of
directors Durham Region Local Housing
Corporation, Durham Region transit co-co-
ordinating committee, Durham Regional
transit task force, Durham Region Home-
lessness Committee, Regional chairman’s
committee on affordable/sustainable hous-
ing.
Most important issues facing the city:
Creating less dependency on a residential
tax base by promoting office and other com-
mercial development by developing more
employment uses and private and public
partnerships on infrastructure projects such
as building an enclosed walkway over Hwy.
401 linking downtown Pickering to the GO
station. Dealing with the increased impact
on property taxation by finding greater effi-
ciencies and cost savings through shared
services and joint ventures among Durham
municipalities. Changing the mindset from
waste management to resource management
by building on the Amberlea pilot cart pro-
gram to achieve a waste-diversion target in
excess of 60 to 70 per cent.
News Advertiser’s comments:Coun.
Brenner likes to say he’s on a roll and the
News Advertiser agrees. He helped bring
waste diversion to the residents of Amber-
lea, a growth management study to north
Pickering, and aided residents in getting in-
formation about two pedophiles living in the
city. He is clearly one of the most active and
informed members of council, committed to
his constituents and all of the City’s resi-
dents.
Ward 2
Regional Councillor
Mark Holland
This year: A-
Last year: B+
Serving his first term as a regional coun-
cillor after one term as Ward 2 local coun-
cillor.

committee of the whole, 8/8 planning, 3/3 fi-
nance, and 5/5 finance and operations; re-
gionally, attended 13/14 council, and 15/15
finance and administration committee.

Committees:Chairman Waterfront Co-
ordinating Committee, chairman Pickering

In what has become a yearly tradition, the News Advertiser offers its opinion on
the performance of our municipally-elected officials and of the Durham Regional
chairman. Our assessment is based not only on their performance at public
meetings and functions, but on the feedback we receive from the public during the
course of reporting on local issues.

NEWS ADVERTISER, FRIDAY EDITION, June 28, 2002 PAGE 9 P
Alliance audit committee, Durham ad-hoc
committee on the selection of the regional
chairman, Congress of New Urbanism,
Pickering liaison Social Development Coun-
cil of Ajax-Pickering.
Most important issues facing the city:
Future development of Pickering — the ac-
tions we take today will determine if we
sprawl into meandering and unconnected
subdivisions or evolve into a self-sufficient,
connected community with a clear sense of
identity. We must focus upon urban renewal
and employment opportunities and reject
residential green space development that
will compound servicing, traffic and envi-
ronmental issues. Make our existing urban
context work first, while focusing upon our
niche strengths such as our waterfront, pro-
tection of our vast and naturally spectacular
rural areas and utilization of the Hwy. 407
corridor for employment and industrial op-
portunities.
News Advertiser’s comments:Coun.
Holland is never short of opinions on impor-
tant issues, but they usually have a factual
base. Informed, active, a natural leader,
Coun. Holland is up on all issues municipal-
ly, regionally, provincially, federally, and
even globally. He plays a unique role in
bringing Pickering to the world and the
world to Pickering in both promoting the
city and in bringing forward motions to
show Pickering is a player on a larger stage.
His refusal to back away from a battle with
the Pickering Harbour Company over water-
front redevelopment shows his commitment
to his constituents.
Ward 3
Regional Councillor
Rick Johnson
This year: B-
Last year: B+
Serving his fourth term as a regional
councillor after one term as a local represen-
tative.
Attendance: In Pickering, attended
22/25 special council, 17/19 council, 12/12
committee of the whole, 7/8 planning, 2/3 fi-
nance, and 3/5 finance and operations; re-
gionally, attended 13/14 council, and 14/16
works.
Expenses:Pickering — $9,665; Region
— $5,618.06
Committees: Chairman Ontario Traffic
Conference, Pickering hydro commissioner,
Veridian board of directors, chairman Pick-
ering site plan committee, chairman of Cen-
tral Lake Ontario Conservation Authority,
Pickering committee of adjustment, chair-
man Pickering-Ajax-Whitby Animal Con-
trol, chairman of Durham Mobility Study,
chairman of Durham public works, chair-
man of Durham waste management,
Durham Non-Profit Housing, Ontario Con-
servation Foundation, development charges
committee.
Most important issues facing the city:
Safe and clean drinking water is the number-
one priority. Planning and protecting our en-
vironment is number two. Keeping our roads
safe, our hydro rates low, our taxes at a rea-
sonable rate, our communities safe from do-
mestic violence, and access to parks and fa-
cilities for all to enjoy. Waste management is
on the verge of a new direction here in
Durham. We all must be willing to accept a
new collection system to attempt to divert as
much waste from landfill as possible.
News Advertiser comments:Despite a
legal dispute with both the City and Town-
ship of Uxbridge in regards to roadwork at
his north Pickering property, Coun. Johnson
remains mostly committed to his job. How-
ever, he would have been more active and ef-
fective if those problems hadn’t distracted
him from duties and demands regarding
council business. Coun. Johnson represents
his constituents well, but would serve them
even more effectively without the spectre of
this legal battle still in the spotlight.
Roger Anderson
Regional Chairman
This year: B
Last year: B
Attendance:14/14 regional council,
6/14 health and social services, 8/12 plan-
ning committee, 11/16 works committee,
13/15 finance and administration committee
Expenses: $36,919.42
Committees: GO Transit Board, Associ-
ation of Municipalities of Ontario (AMO)
vice-president, AMO ambulance implemen-
tation steering committee co-chairman, Iter
Canada, Municipal Property Assessment
Corporation, Durham Children’s Aid Soci-
ety, Junior Achievement of Durham Region,
all regional standing committees.
Important issues:Several opportunities
are within Durham’s grasp - the ITER bid,
the University and the Transit Task Force
Report all offer great potential. Issues of
concern include: rising costs of the 401 in-
terchanges, funding for needed regional in-
frastructure and passage of the UOIT Act.
Working actively as part of the Pickering
Airport Committee, implementing a waste
management solution by January 2003 and
responding to the Walkerton Inquiry recom-
mendations are also key challenges for the
coming months.
News Advertiser’s comments:Chair-
man Anderson has weathered a year during
which his role on council has been under
scrutiny and some members of his council
have put his authority to the test. The chair-
man is a bit of a scrapper, unafraid to state
his opinion regardless of whether it will be
popular with those who appointed him.
While it is good to have a strong voice at the
helm, the chairman could sometimes benefit
from a less confrontational, more co-opera-
tive approach with members of council. The
chairman is a firm supporter of a borderless
regional transit system and of the new Uni-
versity of Ontario Institute of Technology.
He has lent his support to the bid to bring the
ITER fusion research facility to Durham,
creating a delegation that successfully repre-
sented the community in Moscow this
spring. As well, he has worked to get himself
plugged in at the provincial level and inter-
municipally through participation on provin-
cial boards and at the Association of Munic-
ipalities.

committee and 12 board meetings were held.
• Mileage, conference, telephone and
other expenses are from the past year, start-
ing in June 2001.
• Summaries of the ‘most important is-
sues facing the board’ were based on sub-
missions from trustees.
• Committee membership may include

Paul Crawford
This year: F
Last year: F
Note: Trustee Crawford
did not fully participate in the report cards.
Serving second term as a trustee.
Attendance: Attended 10/10 standing
committee and 11/12 board meetings.
Expenses: $2,373.71
Committees: A member of the expulsion
and expulsion appeal committees; and fi-
nance and transportation liaison to board
staff.
Most important issues facing the
board:“Trustee Paul Crawford, as have all
the trustees, has more than fulfilled the
obligations as outlined in the Education
Act.”
News Advertiser comments:At his im-
perious best at a recent board meeting, re-
sponding to an unsolicited comment from
the gallery with, “I want that woman re-
moved.” Often the culprit when trustees go
off course, as in a pointless debate about
how meeting minutes should be recorded.
Trustee Crawford proposed a committee to
interpret what the Education Act means by
full and complete recording. Continues to
beat the student smoking horse, not to death,
but to pulp. Defended and expected taxpay-
ers to cover the $8,000-plus legal bill some
trustees incurred for outside legal advice.
Uses his knowledge of the rules of proce-
dure not to help the board but as a stick in
the wheel spokes, though he is often correct.
Jennifer Bridge
This year: D
Last year: C+
Note: Did not respond to numerous re-
quests for report card information.
Serving first term as a trustee.
Attendance: Attended 10/10 standing
committee and 9/12 board meetings.
Expenses: None.
Committees: Member of board bargain-
ing team for high school teachers; and eth-
nocultural, growth and development and
board expulsion committees.
Most important issues facing the
board:None submitted.
News Advertiser comments:You can’t
blame Trustee Bridge for being bored at
some of the tedious discussions that take
place during public meetings, but nodding
off, on more than one occasion, is unaccept-
able. During the accommodation plan
process, supported the Valley View Public
School community’s campaign to avoid clo-
sure. Also during that process, said the board
didn’t have the money to sustain small
schools, stating then-education minister
Janet Ecker was the one closing schools, not
the board. Rarely makes a comment during
debates, but continues to vote sensibly.

This year: B+
Last year: B+
Serving fourth term as a trustee.
Attendance:Attended 21/21 board meet-
ings.
Expenses: $1,017.42
News Advertiser comments:Chairman
of the special education advisory committee
and the board’s negotiating teams for the As-
sociation of Professional Student Services
personnel; vice-chairman of the joint ser-
vices committee and Ontario Catholic
School Trustees’ Association youth awards
committee; a member of the board’s ele-
mentary and secondary teachers’negotiating
teams; and expulsion and suspension ap-
peals committees.
Most important issues facing the
board:Ministry funding issues include in-
adequacies in special-education classifica-
tion, ongoing curriculum changes, textbooks
for all students; student transportation — in-
sufficient funding, rising costs and limited
sharing of busing; and overcrowding in our
schools. Preparing students for successful
entrance into colleges and the workplace;
and ensuring placements for our 2003 grad-
uates. Accountability to the community and
within the board.
News Advertiser’s comments:He
claimed parents have said the roughly
PICKERING from page 8
See PICKERING page 10
$2,500 spent on a plaque to
commemorate a school
opening would be better
spent in the classroom. Boy-
cotted the trustee seminar
near Orillia, describing it as
“a waste of money that
could be used elsewhere.”
He had a point in that — all
but one of the presenters
were board staff and, in one
case, a fellow trustee.
Fran
Pereira

board.
Attendance: Attended

Committees: Vice-chair-

Council Presidents’commit-
tee; Ontario Catholic School
Trustees’ Association repre-
sentative for Region 10; and
member and representative
on other OCSTA commit-
tees.
Most important issues
facing the board:Adequate
funding continues to chal-
lenge trustees, in particular
for special education and in-
creased transportation, heat-
ing and electricity costs.
Also, although we have had
many computer initiatives in
recent years, many of our
student computers now re-
quire upgrading. Continuing
to work with our provincial
association, OCSTA, during
the Ministry of Education
funding review to address
these and other board fund-
ing requirements.
News Advertiser’s com-
ments:Probably Durham
Region’s most engaged
trustee, Trustee Pereira’s in-
volvement in Catholic edu-
cation at the local and
provincial level is extensive.
She was uncomfortable with
a peer’s suggestion the
board take interest from a re-
serve fund, warning trustees
would be entering “danger-
ous waters” if they started
tinkering with the budget.
She claims provincial test
scores are “not valid” be-
cause the same students are
not tested year after year.
When Liberal leader Dalton
McGuinty entered the Marc
Hall fray, appealing to the
board “as a Catholic” in sup-
port of the gay student,
Trustee Pereira said he “did
Catholics a disservice and
he did politicians a disser-
vice”.

Environmental assessment
on highway extension
to begin
BY JACQUIE McINNES
Staff Writer
DURHAM ––Durham com-
muters could be sitting in traffic for
another eight years awaiting Hwy.
407 east of Brock Road.
An environmental assessment is
about to get under way but won’t be
complete until the end of 2004, the
Durham Region works committee
learned Wednesday.
With added time for ministry ap-
proval, any required land acquisition
and construction, Regional Chairman
Roger Anderson estimated it could be
2010 before anyone is driving on the
new highway, an alternative to Hwy.
401.
That timeline is “completely unac-
ceptable,” said Chairman Anderson,
especially since the Region partici-
pated in a contentious, costly and
time-consuming environmental as-
sessment process back in 1994 and
already determined a technically pre-
ferred route, he added.
“This is a joke. It’s absolutely 100-
per cent unacceptable. I can’t believe
all the work we did in the early
1990s.
“It was a total waste of taxpayers’
money,” Mr. Anderson said.
Fred Leech, manager of provincial
and environmental planning with the
Ministry of Transportation, said the
original EA was never filed with the
Ministry of Environment (MOE).
Also, given the timeframe since the
study was conducted, priorities may
have changed and the plan must be
re-visited.
“We will use as much as possible
from the previous study,” Mr. Leech
said.
However, the process can’t be fast-
tracked despite the information al-
ready available because there must be
consultation with the public, affected
municipalities and other stakehold-
ers.
Scugog Mayor Doug Moffatt
asked if, at the very least, the section
between Brock Road and Hwy. 12
could be taken in isolation and con-
structed sooner.
“I don’t know how these people
who live there are going to survive
another eight years,” he said. “Hwy.
12 to Brock Road has to be looked at
faster.”
He said it was an internal mistake
at the Ministry of Transportation that
the 1994 environmental assessment
was shelved. It is the ministry’s re-
sponsibility to “go back and fix it,” he
said.
Mr. Leech said dividing the pro-
ject into chunks is problematic be-
cause then further studies have to be
conducted to determine how traffic
coming on and off the highway at
those junctures will be managed.
The EA study will look at route
designation and property protection
including through environmentally
sensitive areas such as the Oak
Ridges Moraine but will not be an
implementation plan, Mr. Leech said.
The design for the highway will
follow MOE approval of the EA after
it is filed in December 2004. The
provincial assessment will be done in
tandem with a federal assessment, he
said.
The public will have a chance to
have its say at meetings to be held at
four locations throughout the Region
to be announced at a future date. The
terms of reference for the study will
be complete by winter, 2003 with the
actual study expected to begin in that
fall.

But others say
framework offers
little new resources
for ailing industry
BY JEREMY LE PAGE
Staff Writer
DURHAM —Since the
first seed was planted in the
soil outside of Eden, farmers
have looked up to the skies
and prayed for good weather.
But today, it’s not so sim-
ple. With the high-strung na-
ture of global competition,
crops can be hurt by much
more than mere drought or
hail. Agriculture is one of
Canada’s most valuable and
fragile industries.
And with the new Farm
Bill launched in the United
States May 13 by American
President George W. Bush,
farmers south of the border
will be able to offer their pro-
duce at cheaper prices than
Canadian farmers, even in
Canada. As a result, the fed-
eral government says it now
has an answer to Canadian
farmers’call for help. Its new
agricultural policy frame-
work (APF) intends to assist
the industry with $5.2 billion
over the next six years. And
with provincial participation,
the number could exceed $8
billion.
“It’s a crucial time for
Canadian farmers who are
faced with unfair competition
prompted by the recent pass-
ing of the U.S. Farm Bill. We
want our farmers to be recog-
nized as the most efficient in
the world,” Durham MP Alex
Shepherd said, adding Cana-
dian farmers are competing
heavily against farmers in the
U.S. and Europe.
And this includes farmers
in Durham.
“It’s a huge step in the
right direction,” said John
Wagenaar, co-director of the
Durham Region Federation
of Agriculture. Although the
manner in which the funds
will be divided is yet to be de-
termined, he said a large per-
centage will likely go to grain
and oils, an area of farming
jeopardized by low U.S.
prices. Regardless of the out-
come, Mr. Wagenaar said
“there is more of an air of op-
timism in the farming com-
munity” after news of the
APF was announced June 20.
Durham Region Federa-
tion of Agriculture president
Dave Barry agreed.
“It’s the best news we’ve
had in a long time,” he said,
although he added the fine
print will determine the suc-
cess of the framework.
The APF’s five goals, as
outlined by the government,
are food safety and quality,
environment, skills and re-
newal, science and innova-
tion, and management of
business risks. But for many
in the agricultural communi-
ty, the new policy is consid-
ered weak. Dale Mountjoy,
director of the Ontario Corn
Producers Association for
Durham, said although
names have changed under
the new framework, very lit-
tle “new money” is being in-
troduced. Only about $1.2
billion, he said, will be added
as transitional money for the
entire country, resulting in a
nation miles behind the U.S.
“Our federal government
is turning a blind eye,” Mr.
Mountjoy said.

A Swimming Pool is a Long-term Investment in Fun
Over the last few
years, there has been a
noticeable trend of peo-
ple returning to more tra-
ditional values. One of
the most visible effects of
this trend is strengthened
family ties. Not only are
families becoming much
closer, but they are also
spending a lot more time
together.
Do you wish you
could spend more quality
time with your kids, sib-
lings and parents? Why
not install a swimming
pool in your backyard?
It’s a great way to get
everyone together in a
fun, relaxing environ-
ment. While a pool may
initially seem to be a
huge investment, when
you spread the cost out
over a period of 10 years,
you will be surprised at
how inexpensive a new
pool really is. And when
you consider all the fun
that it will add to your
family’s life, the decision
becomes even easier to
make. For example, a
$3,000 pool will only cost
you a little over $300 a
year for 10 years. And its
maintenance and electric-
ity costs will only run
$300 to $400 a year.
A pool is a great
way to relax, improve
your swimming skills
and simply have fun. The
best thing about a pool is
that it can be used by family members of all
ages. In fact, swimming is considered to be
one of the best forms of exercise that you can
do for your body. And there’s nothing like
getting lots of fresh air, especially after being
cooped up indoors all winter. And late at
night, you can relax in your warm pool and
gaze at the stars. Now here’s one investment
you can enjoy now and for many years to
come.
Looking for ways to bring your family
closer together? Why not install a swim-
ming pool in your backyard?

MR. DEEDS
Starring Adam Sandler
Directed by Steven Brill
Longfellow Deeds (Adam Sandler)
is a sweet, lovable guy leading a sim-
ple happy life in the tiny hamlet of
Mandrake Falls, N.H. Deeds is ad-
mired by the locals who crowd into his
pizzeria to hear him recite his offbeat
(but hilarious) greeting card poetry.
Life is good until two fancy corporate
execs bring news that Deeds is about to
be rolling in a different kind of dough.
A long-lost relative has left him an in-
heritance of $40 billion along with the
largest media company in the world,
football and basketball teams, and a
private helicopter ready to whisk him
off to corporate America. Deeds ulti-
mately discovers what life is really all
about and has to prove money changes
everything... but not everyone.
HEY ARNOLD! THE MOVIE
Animated
Life in the big city can be lonely.
Luckily, Arnold and his pals live in
a neighbourhood so close-knit it could
pass for a small town plopped down in
the middle of a major metropolis.
But when a powerful developer
wants to knock down all the stores and
houses so he can build a mammoth
‘mall-plex’ it looks like Arnold’s
neighbourhood moves to save their
beloved blocks before it’s too late.
LOVELY AND AMAZING
Starring Catherine Keener
Directed by Nicole Holofcener
Academy Award-nominated ac-
tresses Catherine Keener (‘Being John
Malkovich’) and Brenda Blethyn (‘Se-
crets & Lies’) star in Nicole
Holofcener’s followup feature to her
critically acclaimed debut ‘Walking
and Talking’.
A finely observed comedy, ‘Lovely
and Amazing’ is an intimate family
portrait of four hapless but resilient
women and the bittersweet lessons
they learn in keeping up with the hec-
tic demands of their individual neu-
roses.
PUMPKIN
Starring Christina Ricci, Hank Har-
ris
Directed by Adam Larson Broder,
Tony Abrams
Carolyn McDuffy (Christina Ricci)
is the model of Pasadena perfection as
she trundles her way in her Cabrio con-
vertible toward Southern California
State University for her senior year.
To her horror, she discovers her
sorority has taken on the Challenged
Games as its off-campus charity. The
sisters have agreed to help train River-
side County’s physically and mentally
handicapped athletes for their annual
match against Orange County. After
resisting the task, Carolyn finds herself
saddled with mentoring an earnest
challenged athlete named Pumpkin
(Hank Harris) who is immediately en-
amoured with her.

After weeks of delays,
first-year school beats
Bowmanville for title
AJAX —Although it was put on
hold several times, the regional high
school championship for boys’baseball
was finally played Wednesday, with the
Cinderella team of the league winning
the Durham crown.
The Notre Dame Catholic Sec-
ondary School Cougars captured the
Lake Ontario Secondary School Athlet-
ics (LOSSA) crown with a 4-2 victory
over Bowmanville High School. The
LOSSA title was all the more signifi-
cant as the team was in its first year of
competition after the school opened
last September.
The title game, played at the Ajax
Community Centre diamond Wednes-
day, was a long time coming. The con-
test had to be postponed through the
Prentice Cup (provincial) regional
playdowns (with both teams qualifying
to represent Durham), two rainouts and
exams.
Notre Dame sprinted out to a big
lead in its first at-bats, putting three
runs on the board in the bottom of the
first inning.
The Cougars added another run in
the bottom of the third before Bow-
manville rallied in the top of the fifth
inning, scoring its two runs.
Willie Neadles led the Cougars at
the dish, going 2-for-3 with two runs
batted in and two runs scored. Jon
Rossi went 3-for-3 with a double and
game-winning run.
Matt Firth earned the win, register-
ing eight strikeouts.
For Notre Dame co-coach Chad
McPherson, who coached the team
along with Greg Kieszkowski, the sea-
son has gone beyond anyone’s wildest
expectations. The Cougars put together
a solid regular season, qualified for the
playoffs where they pulled off a big 4-
1 upset over the perennially strong
Pickering High School Trojans in the
semifinal and eventually landed in the
Ontario Federa-
tion of School
Athletic Associ-
ation regionals
in Ottawa.
There, Notre
Dame earned
one win in four
games.
“It’s been a
great year and
we’re looking
forward to next
year for sure,”
said McPherson.

HORNUNG, Horst Adolf - Passed away peace-
fully on the morning of Saturday, June 22,
2002, at home with his family by his side, fol-
lowing a courageous battle with cancer.
Horst was 65 years old. Horst immigrated to
Canada from Germany in 1956 with $40.00 in
his pocket. Although he had little money, he
came as a skilled toolmaker and with much
ambition to succeed in his adopted country.
After working hard for many years, he be-
came a partner in a mould-making company,
D&E Precision Tooling Ltd. From this fledgling
business grew a varied group of successful
companies in the Durham Region specializing
in Tool & Die Making, Plastic Injection
Moulding, Industrial Supply and Real Estate.
He was the loving husband of Diane, beloved
father and father-in-law of Karen & Bob Mc-
Burney, Richard & Catherine Hornung, Jac-
queline and Dave Bracken, caring stepfather
of Cindy Dunn (Galveston, Texas), Robin and
Ken Turner and Jacqueline and Jerry
Kucharchuk. Horst's 7 grandchildren, Julia,
Jamie, Jessica, Andrew, Joey, Jeffrey and
baby Samuel will all miss their Opa. Horst will
be dearly missed by all whose lives have been
touched by this special man. Horst's family
would like to thank the doctors and nurses at
Sunnybrook Hospital and Cancer Centre for
their expert care during his illness. Horst will
be laid to rest at Resurrection Cemetery on
Ta unton Rd. in Whitby. Arrangements en-

Chipping one
on to the green
PICKERING — Joe Gormley watches his ball’s
progress while attempting to chip on to the green at
the sixth hole at Seaton Golf and Country Club
Tuesday afternoon. Gormley and others were tak-
ing part in the second annual Big Sisters Associa-
tion of Ajax and Pickering Charity Golf Tourna-
ment, raising money while teeing it up for 18 holes
on the course.
PICKERING —A Pickering man earned
two medals at the recent National Karate As-
sociation Canadian Black Belt Champi-
onships in Toronto.
Takayoshi ‘Rafael’ Alvarez, who studies
the karate discipline of Okinawa Goju Ryu,
captured master national champion status
after winning the gold medal in kumite (self-
defence) and the silver in kata (patterns) at the
Regal Constellation Hotel.
Alvarez was one of two black belts from
Ontario to compete in the discipline.
As gold medallist,Alvarez advances to the
WKF World Championships in Madrid, Spain
Nov. 22 to 24. Alvarez, a seventh degree black
belt in Okinawa Goju Ryu, came to Canada
from the Dominican Republic in 1997 and has
since gained a reputation as one of the best
karateka in Ontario. He is planning to visit
Santo Domingo, Dominican Republic in Au-
gust for competition and to provide instruc-
tion. Last summer, Alvarez was part of a 12-
member delegation to Japan where he served
as a technical adviser.

Local gymnasts combine
for three national medals
DURHAM —Tw o local gymnasts
earned solid results at the recent 2002
Canadian National Gymnastics Cham-
pionships.
Colin Sharpe, 15, of Ajax, and
Bernhardt Mattes, 15, a former Ajax
resident who recently moved to Cour-
tice, earned a combined three individ-
ual medals while competing for On-
tario at the University of Manitoba in
Winnipeg.
Sharpe, competing in the novice
category, earned a silver medal on
pommel horse with a score of 9.95. He
also won the bronze medal on floor ex-
ercise with a score of 9.6. In addition,
Sharpe placed fourth on high bar and
was 12th overall with a score of 52.05.
Meanwhile, Mattes placed seventh
overall in the open division, which fea-
tured 30 competitors. He earned a sil-
ver medal on floor with a mark of 9.6.
He also placed fourth on rings, fifth on
vault, seventh on high bar, 10th on par-
allel bars and 16th on pommel horse.
In the team standings, Sharpe and
Mattes helped the Ontario team finish
first.
Wo rking more than 22 hours per
week in the gym, Mattes and Sharpe
have put together a solid season that
led to the breakthroughs at provincials
and nationals. At provincials in Wood-
stock in April, Sharpe was second
overall and Mattes finished third.

Sharpe at the Markham Gymnastics
Club.

Mattes represented Ontario at the recent Canadian
Gymnastics Championships in Winnipeg recently.
Transmissions are
very costly to repair so if
you hear strange noises
coming from this impor-
tant part of your vehicle
you shouldn’t ignore them.
According to the Car
Care Council, at the first
indication of any noise, the
transmission fluid should
be checked. If the level is
low, adding fluid may cor-
rect the trouble.
If the noise persists,
the culprit could be a
clogged transmission filter
which is preventing fluid
from reaching the pump.
The result, the transmis-
sion is starved of
fluid, with even-
tual destruction of
the pump and
other compo-
nents. This can
add up to a very
large repair bill.
The above
mentioned horror
story should
never happen,
says Car Care
Council, if auto-
matic transmis-
sion fluid is
checked regularly
(at least as often
as the oil is
changed) and if
fluid and filter
are replaced peri-
odically.
The Council
r ecommends
checking fluid
only when the
vehicle has been
run for a few
miles after the
engine has
reached normal
operating temper-
ature.
Check to see
if it is discolored,
rather than pink
or red, which is
normal. When
fluid has turned brown,
this is an indication that it
has been burned. Note also
if it smells burned. Burned
fluid should be drained
and replaced, along with
the filter.
The Council also
notes that the tip of the dip
stick should be cool
enough to touch; an auto-
matic transmission should
operate at 66-94 deg.C.
Severe service driving,
which can overheat the
transmission, may call for
the addition of a transmis-
sion cooler. Fluid life is
greatly extended when it is
kept within normal operat-
ing temperature.
Most types of "severe"
service driving require
most frequent fluid and fil-
ter changes, as well as
other periodic services.
This type of service is
described as follows:
• Frequent idling for
long periods of time, such
as stop-and-go driving in
heavy traffic.
•Sustained highway
driving in hot weather.
•Towing a boat or trail-
er, or carrying heavy
objects on a rooftop rack.
•Driving in dusty con-
ditions.
•Prolonged operation
at sub-zero temperatures.
•Driving on steep hills
or mountains on a regular
basis.
Preventive mainte-
nance is critical to long,
efficient car life, summa-
rized Car Care Council.
When it is neglected one's
senses of sight, sound and
smell may signal trouble.
Beware of Strange Noises Coming From Your Transmission
Most types of "severe" service driving require most
frequent fluid and filter changes, as well as other
periodic services.
And that’s fine with me. In fact, that’s why I go to Precision
Tune. I know their technicians are not only certified to be among

for the Fourth Annual Durham Region Hole in
One Shootout.
Entering into its 40th season, the love of
the game and continual devotion to improve-
ments and service at Royal Ashburn has creat-
ed a golf course that is challenging and fun.
Playing at 7019 yards from the Championship Tees, you will find Royal
Ashburn one of the most interesting tests of golf in Ontario. Excellent con-
ditions and respected layout are just a few of the reasons why Royal
Ashburn has been home to the Canadian Tour Fall Qualifying School for

putting areas, lessons, fully stocked Pro Shop and a friendly experienced
staff. For your added enjoyment we offer a licensed patio, lounge and

Golf Tip:The 4th hole is deceiving and you may think it’s longer than
it really is because of the large green. So just shoot it straight for a hole in
one. *Note: A shuttle will be available to the hole so remember to regis-
ter in the pro shop first and avoid parking on the road.
Good Luck!!

Ajax mosquitoes earn
10-10 tie with previously
perfect Pickering club
AJAX —The Ajax Spartans mos-
quito rep baseball team engaged in an
all-out battle with the rival Pickering
Red Sox here Monday night.
Pickering entered the game in first
place in the Eastern Ontario Baseball
Association standings with an unde-
feated 9-0 league mark. Meanwhile,
the Spartans have improved each
game entering the tilt.
With the game tied 10-10, both
teams and the umpire agreed to play
an extra inning in an attempt to break
the stalemate. In the end, however,
the teams had to be content with the
draw.
The lead changed hands several
times and Ajax received hits from
Andrew Ward, Todd Blair, Thomas
Fearon, George Halim, Brennan Con-
quer and Colton Kennedy.
The Spartans’ Kyle Lewis, Rai-
hann Patel, Kristopher Barclay and
Wayne Feltham supplied solid play in
the field. Patel and Blair both stole
several bases.
Fearon and Kennedy pitched well
for Ajax.
The Spartans are preparing for an
upcoming tournament in Cambridge.
