The Province announced yesterday it’s going to ban the sale of and cosmetic use of pesticides. There are 32 existing municipal bylaws across On- tario regarding pesticides and the proposed legislation would replace them. The ban won’t apply to pesticides used in farming or forestry, while golf courses would be allowed to use them if they meet certain conditions. Also, pesticides could be used for health and safety reasons, such as controlling mosquitoes to fight West Nile Virus. “Our generation is becoming more and more aware of the potential risks in our environment, not only to our health, but to our children’s health. That’s why we’re taking action on behalf of the next generation of Ontarians, and reducing their exposure to chemicals,” Premier Dalton McGuinty said in a press release. “This proposed legislation will encourage industries that have been using these pesticides to be more in- novative and forward-thinking about the products they use and manufacture,” says Ajax-Pickering Liberal MPP Ontario to ban pesticides Train, bus service not affected By Keith Gilligan kgilligan@durhamregion.com AJAX — A construction worker was taken to hospital Thursday morning after a blown valve caused a gas leak. The incident happened at 8:38 a.m. in a vacant building next to the Ajax GO Transit sta- tion. GO Transit and Durham Region Transit of- ficials were notified of the situation, but service wasn’t affected, Durham Regional Police In- spector Jamie Grant said. “I don’t believe any service was interrupted.” Workers were doing renovations to the build- ing, next to the East Side Mario’s Restaurant. “He was working on a valve that brings gas into the building. There was excessive force and it resulted in a gas leak,” Insp. Grant stated. “One gentleman was taken to hospital as a pre- caution.” Enbridge Gas employees were called to the scene to cap the leak at the rear of the build- ing. Insp. Grant said the man was working alone, although there were other workers in the build- ing at the time. Three Ajax Fire and Emergency Services crews and a Durham EMS ambulance were on the scene.

An employee at the Big Mouth restaurant on Hunt Street was cut on the neck during the incident, Durham police said. The 37-year- old worker was attacked by a man brandishing a serrated knife after the worker disturbed a suspect lurking in the back of the estab- lishment at about 9:50 p.m. The suspect, a tall black man in his 30s, fled with cash. A search of the area by police on the ground and aloft in the Air 1 helicopter was unsuccessful. The victim did not require medical treatment for a minor cut to his neck, police said. Anyone with information on the incident is asked to call police at 905-579-1520, extension 5360, or Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222- 8477. Save time,save money.

Ministry of labour to investigate cause Food services have already changed menus By Josie Newman jnewman@durhamregion.com DURHAM — The Ontario government’s recently an- nounced legislation to ban trans fats in high school cafeterias and vending ma- chines at all schools has not caught school boards off guard, say spokespeople from the public and Catho- lic boards in Durham. “Our board changed its policy in 2004, so that vending machines in ele- mentary schools now stock healthier choices, like juice, water, granola bars, lower fat cheese, crackers, Rice Krispie squares,” said Dur- ham District School Board communications manager Andrea Pidwerbecki. She said high schools in the DDSB have been lean- ing towards healthier choic- es in their cafeterias for sev- eral years, too, but cafeteria services in both boards are contracted out to Chartwells education dining, a division of Compass Group Canada. A note went out to sec- ondary schools in the Dur- ham Catholic District School Board last spring, asking them to take a healthy diet approach, said education director Paul Pulla. “We developed a healthier policy on vending machines a while back and applied it to both elementary and sec- ondary schools. Most ele- mentary schools don’t have vending machines anyway,” said Mr. Pulla. The provincial legislation will finalize an existing pol- icy in elementary schools that bans chocolate bars, potato chips and soft drinks and will expand the junk food ban to high schools, once it’s approved. The main reason cited is child- hood obesity, which is esti- mated to affect one-third of Canadian children. “Ever since the trans fat task force has been out, our company has been in total compliance. We do quite a few food services in Durham Region high schools, and work in 35 school boards in Ontario,” said Donna Bot- trell, director of nutrition at Compass Canada. She said that foods with trans fats, like french fries or pastries, are now cooked in an oil that’s trans fat free, but they are still offered on high school menus. She said very little, if anything, will come off the menus of- fered by Chartwells. “We might remove cheesecake because of the ban, but everything else is pretty well in line now,” said Ms. Bottrell. “We have to make chang- es because it will cost our health care system so much money in the long-term. We have to be part of the solution. If we don’t offer healthy choices to students, then we’re not doing our jobs. Kids are now doing a better job on their own when they go out. We don’t sell nearly as many french fries and items like that,” said Ms. Bottrell. She said the balanced choices program, which has a sign beside each food in that category, offers foods like penne pasta with meat sauce, a salad, and milk, or soup and sandwich with milk or juice.

Spring sale for Herizon House Cosmetic pesticide ban provides for healthier outdoors G etting a green lawn will mean a greener, environment-friendly approach starting in 2009. The Province has announced that the sale and cosmetic use of pesticides, which include herbicides, fungicides and insec- ticides, will be banned starting next year. There will be limited exceptions to the ban allowing farmers, those in the forestry industry and those who own golf courses to use pesticides under certain conditions. There are also health and safety consid- erations that would apply, such as the use of pesticides to fight the West Nile Virus. But for the vast majority of those who use pesticides, the move by the govern- ment prohibits pesticide use en masse province wide. The real aim of the ban will be to stop uncontrolled pesticide use in the hundreds of thousands of neighbour- hood lawns across Ontario. It will force pesticide-makers to develop alternative ways to battle infestations on household lawns. A different way of get- ting that nice green lawn will have to be found. Those who wish their lawns would look like artificial turf will have to find a natural way to achieve their goal. What’s needed in connection with the ban is a good education program with plenty of information readily available so that gardeners can be on top of the latest natural remedies to what ails their lawns. Pesticide-makers would find it’s in their best interests to be on the leading edge of providing necessary information and natural products that provide answers to lawn-care problems. The ban comes after years of concerns raised by groups worried about the long- term health effects of continual cosmetic pesticide use. For instance, the Canadian Association of Family Physicians has indi- cated there are significant potential risks associated with the use of pesticides. Some might argue that it is a slippery slope to banning pesticide use by farmers, but the legislation makes clear the ban applies only to cosmetic use. Other prov- inces have already banned the sale and cosmetic use of pesticides. Toronto is also one of 32 municipalities across Ontario to put in place a ban. So one could argue the Province is merely playing catchup to municipalities that have been out in front in applying a ban to cosmetic pesticide use. A cleaner, greener neighbourhood helps everyone and a cosmetic pesticide ban can help make that a reality.

At this time of year, when more people are venturing outside in the pleasant weather, I would like to urge all parents to speak to their children and teens about respecting the property of others. Since when is it fun to kick the living daylights out of leaf bags that have been placed at the curb, destroying the bags and spew- ing the contents all over the sidewalk and lawn? These punks have obviously not worked an honest day in their young lives. Little do they realize that those bags of leaves represent hours of back-breaking labour, not to mention the money it costs to purchase the bags. Maybe it’s time that more young people spent their weekends raking up the yard, rather than playing video games and tex- ting on their cell-phones. Maybe then they will understand what hard work is, and maybe then they will have more respect. In the meantime, I must spend my weekend re-bagging my leaves.

P PAGE 6 THE NEWS ADVERTISER, April 25, 2008 durhamregion.com High gas prices have Al waiting for GM plug-in T hese oil companies and their inflated gas prices are beating me down -- beating us all down -- with their constant and blatant gouging at the pumps. $1.20 a litre. Are you kidding me? Twenty dollars used to provide a full tank of gas; now the poor gas gauge barely registers a half a tank. It’s as frustrating as it is outrageous. Maybe I don’t understand the full intricacies of the oil-pricing system, but I do know this: as Canada is a net oil pro- ducer, it’s an insult of the highest order to have to endure these inflated prices. Outside of converting to the Amish way of life, where the horse-and-buggy rules the day, our day-to-day lives are so dependent on filling up that tank and getting to where we need to go. One can talk about Ottawa easing up on the gas taxes that add so much to the cost per litre, but getting them to cut gas taxes is akin to hoping the Toronto Maple Leafs will win a Stanley Cup. So much talk, but no evidence of action. So, what can be done? Car commuters are left to hold out hope that one day a technology will become available to allow us to thumb our collective noses at the oil compa- nies. I, for one, can’t wait for that day. Our best hope in the not-so-distant future, perhaps coming to a GM Oshawa assembly line near you as early as 2010, promises to be the darling of the travel- ling public and the anti-Christ to the oil companies. The Chevy Volt. It’s an almost-fully electric car that debuted as a concept car a year ago. It’s making people excited to think maybe, just maybe, a mass-produced, environ- mentally friendly vehicle will make gaso- line dependency a thing of the past. GM is reportedly going at warp speed toward making the Volt prototype utilize lithium-ion battery power to make it viable at highway speeds, with a small on-board gas generator to power up the battery. Best of all, the Volt can apparently be plugged into a home outlet. How cool is that? The Volt’s technology would be a quantum leap up from current hybrids that only use electric power at low speeds. Mostly, though, it has to be affordable or it will stay in the showrooms; GM promises there won’t be sticker shock. The Volt won’t be much more expensive than most new cars, with an expected price of around $35,000, although the goal is to have it cost below $30,000. So, I say kudos to GM for charging ahead with what the future demands -- a car that can get you from ‘A’ to ‘B’ with- out the influence of the oil companies. This new-age auto could be good for GM, good for Oshawa and mostly great for the driving public. To paraphrase an old baseball adage -- build the Volt and they will drive.

The Liberals said during last year’s provincial election it would introduce legislation to ban pes- ticides. Quebec is the only other province with a similar ban. More than 44 per cent of Ontar- ians already live in a municipal- ity that has banned the cosmetic use of pesticides. Toronto imposed such a ban on Sept. 1 of last year. Pickering Ward 1 City council- lor Jennifer O’Connell, who has pushed for a Pickering-wide ban basically from the time she was elected to council, is pleased with the Province’s decision. “It is so vindicating to know that the voices of the residents of Pickering and all across Ontario have finally been heard,” she said. But she says Pickering council had an opportunity to be leaders in 2004 when the idea was first introduced to council. Jeff Stewart, the manager of parks services for Ajax, says the Town doesn’t have a ban for pri- vate use. Rather, it uses an educa- tional approach, including holding workshops on lawn and garden care. For Town lands, such as parks, sports fields and the waterfront, Ajax uses a plant health care pro- gram, Mr. Stewart states. “There are a variety of steps be- fore the use of any type of pesti- cide,” he notes, adding the pesti- cides used are “the least toxic.” As well, the Town uses “designs that are sustainable from the start,” he says. That includes plants that are disease resistant, as well as planting a variety of species. A report on the plant health care program is going to council prior to the summer recess, Mr. Stewart says. “The Province’s announce- ment is timely for us.” Public consultations on the pro- vincial ban will take place until May 23. To comment on the ban, go to the Environmental Registry at www.ebr.gov.on.ca. The Progressive Conservative and New Democratic parties have tentatively said they’d support a ban. — With files from Kristen Calis ✦ Residents from page 1 What’s the rule in other municipalities Brock Township does not have a pesticide ban and has not seriously looked at creating one. Ajax doesn’t have a ban, preferring to use an educational approach. Pesticide spraying in parks and on boulevards is severely restricted and is only used when all other methods have failed. Pickering debated a ban in March, but put off a decision while waiting to see what action the Province would take. Scugog doesn’t have a ban on the use of pesticides on private prop- erty. Scugog also only sprays when other methods haven’t worked. Uxbridge does not have a ban. Oshawa does not have a bylaw regulating the use of pesticides on pri- vate property, but it’s something council has discussed in the past. Whitby has no bylaws regarding pesticide use. Clarington currently has no bylaw governing residential use of cos- metic pesticides, but staff has been looking into the issue over the past several months. Education efforts have included four information sessions, updated website information, an insert in tax envelopes and a resident sur- vey. Pesticides are, by policy, not used in Clarington parks, barring infesta- tion. Th ursday, May1st 5 pm until close. Plus save 20%* on everything in store.

The first session was on April 22 in Bowmanville, with others to follow over the next two weeks. Ontario Power Generation is in the middle of an environmental as- sessment review, examining poten- tial impacts up to four reactors could produce. The four reactors could produce about 4,800 megawatts of electric- ity, Lauri Swami, director, licencing nuclear generation development, said to the Pickering Community Advisory Council on Tuesday. If the provincial government ap- proves the project, it would take about six years to build the units, Ms. Swami said, adding the reactors would come on-line around 2018. The units would operate for about 60 years. “The project is 150 years,” she said, from the first studies beginning to through construction, operation, decommissioning and the disman- tling. The EA should be completed sometime next year and then it will be sent to the Canadian Nuclear Safety Commission for consider- ation. The upcoming open houses would be the third round of public consul- tation, she noted. A decision hasn’t been made on which technology will be used, Ms. Swami stated, adding the provincial government will decide that. OPG is using the Plant Parameter Envelopes (PPE) approach with the EA. It’s the same process used in the U.S. to study new nuclear plants.

The Ajax resident, who’s employed as an ESL (English as a second language) teacher for the Durham District School Board, has waged a life-long battle against a brain tu- mour, which required six surgeries and the removal of her pituitary gland. “I’ll turn 40 next month and I’m proud to say that. For me, thank goodness I’m alive. “To make it to 40 is a milestone rather than a downer,” says Ms. Senior, who was diagnosed in 1994 with “a very large brain tumour” called a craniopharyngioma. “My tumour was discovered at age 26. I tried to remain positive but, as you can imagine, six surgeries is very trying. At the time I thought, ‘Will I make it to 30?’ So, 40 seems like a pretty good deal.” Now, she’s supporting other brain tu- mour survivors in numerous ways, includ- ing providing a helping hand to those local residents who’ll run or walk in Saturday’s Brain Tumour Foundation of Canada’s an- nual Spring Sprint at Sunnybrook Park in Toronto. Although Ms. Senior won’t be taking part in the annual fundraiser that seeks to raise $200,000 this year for brain tumour research, education and support, owing to two broken arms she suffered while having two grand mal seizures in the past two years, she is nonetheless glad to lend her support. “I’d like to go but, unfortunately, I won’t be able to. Fortunately, I’m still able to teach, so I don’t want to push my luck. I’ve been off work for extended periods of time, so I don’t want to take the chance of being off longer.” Members of Brain Tumour Foundation of Canada’s Ajax support group, however, have taken up the cause, with a number of mem- bers heading to Toronto for the run, which raised just more than $1 million among the 19 cities that held the Spring Sprint event. The support group, which she joined eight years ago to help other brain tumour suffer- ers in Durham Region and beyond, has been a labour of love for Ms. Senior, although initially she was unconvinced such a group would do any good. “Originally, I didn’t want to go; I didn’t want to talk about it. “When my sister found out about (the group) she said, ‘If I have to drag you by the hair, you’re going’.” “My tumour occurs in one out of every 850,000 people, so there’s not going to be anyone there with this type of tumour. There were two other men with the same tumour from Oshawa and a little girl from Oshawa with the same tumour. You can certainly imagine my shock. Between Oshawa and Ajax, I don’t think there even is 850,000 people.” The group meets at St. Paul’s United Church in Ajax on the first Thursday of each month from 7 to 9 p.m. The group attracts not only those with brain tumours, but also family members and caregivers. “We provide support and get the best in- formation there is, because it’s first-hand,” says Ms. Senior, who’s the facilitator of the group, whose membership comes from Dur- ham and Scarborough and as far away as Havelock. But, Ms. Senior doesn’t refer to the mem- bers as brain tumour patients: They’re survi- vors. “I don’t call them patients, but survivors because they’re most definitely survivors.” Just call Lesley-Ann Senior a survivor Al Rivett/ News Advertiser photo Lesley-Ann Senior looks over literature pertaining to Saturday’s Brain Tumour Foundation of Canada’s annual Spring Sprint in Toronto. The Ajax resident, who’s survived a brain tumour, can’t participate because of health concerns, but is a long-time supporter of the foundation. 25%ff Watches by TIMEX, BULOVA, LEVI’S, CARAVELLE, CARDINAL, PERRY ELLIS, CITIZEN & more.Excludes Ironman & Expedition. 40%ff Men’s selected comfort casuals for work & weekend by ROCKPORT, CLARKS, DOCKERS, NUNN BUSH & HUSH PUPPIES Reg. $100-$160 Sale $75-$120 30%ff All kids’ & infants’ national brand fash- ions, sleepwear, swimwear & accessories buy one, get one 50%ff • All open-stock sheets by FIELDCREST LUXURY, RALPH LAUREN, CHARTER COLLECTION, HOTEL, HOUSE&HOME & GLUCKSTEINHOME • All towels Second item must be of equal or lesser value. 15%ff All car seats & strollers buy one, get one FREE All pillows Excludes Calvin Klein Khaki Collection pillow.

Former employee returns By Josie Newman jnewman@durhamregion.com DURHAM — The former chief op- erating officer of Durham College is returning to the campus as vice- president of external relations at the University of Ontario Institute of Technology. In an announcement made Tues- day, UOIT president Ron Bordessa said that MaryLynn West-Moynes, who was also vice-president of mar- keting and communications at Dur- ham College/UOIT, will start her position later this year. She left Dur- ham College and the UOIT in 2003 to become presi- dent of Mohawk College in Hamil- ton. Ms. West- Moynes, who re- placed the retir- ing Cal Haddad as Mohawk president in September 2003, cited personal reasons for her decision not to accept Mohawk Col- lege governors’ offer of a second term. “MaryLynn has strong relation- ships with many colleagues on cam- pus and with a variety of external stakeholders, especially government. I know that MaryLynn will do a great job in this newly created portfolio and will become an integral mem- ber of the leadership team as we continue to provide an outstanding post-secondary experience to our students,” said Mr. Bordessa. New vice-president of external relations at UOIT MaryLynn West-Moynes By Moya Dillon mdillon@durhamregion.com DURHAM — The results of a new Kids Help Phone survey suggest education is key when it comes to keeping children safe in cyberspace. “We want to let parents know that they should be educated,” said Maria Montanaro, a counsellor for Kids Help Phone, about the Safety in On- line Relationships survey released last week. “They should let their kids know that they can talk to them, even if they’ve made a mistake.” Although Kids Help Phone has been in operation for 20 years, it was not available online until 2002. The website allows kids to write anony- mously to counsellors, who respond in a post. Kids who might not write or call can then read those posts, which are generally viewed about 50 times. With the phone and web together, Kids Help Phone was able to reach two million youths in 2007. “We put this survey together be- cause we wanted to know, basical- ly, if they knew how to stay safe in cyberspace,” Mrs. Montanaro said. “What we learned is that cyberspace is becoming a little bit of an issue for them.” What Mrs. Montanaro found promising was that 71 per cent of respondents said they knew the dangers of the Internet and how to avoid them. As well, over 70 per cent had talked with their parents about Internet dangers at least once. How- ever, some respondents were still taking risks despite this. “With kids sometimes they can recite what the dangers are about anything. They could recite the dan- gers of smoking or taking drugs, but common sense doesn’t always fol- low through,” Mrs. Montanaro said. “At times they’re dictated by other things like risk factor or curiosity fac- tor.” While there are risks, the Internet can also be very beneficial to teens, who often use it to create support groups and communities. For shy or withdrawn teens, it also offers a less challenging medium to reach out and connect with others. This is why it is important parents don’t discon- nect teens altogether, Mrs. Montan- aro said. “If they make a mistake, be sup- portive. This is trial and error just like everything else,” she said. “They’ll make mistakes, it’s part of growing up, so look at it like, what have you learned from this?” The survey also includes tips for parents on how to keep their chil- dren safe online, including keeping the computer in a public space, using filtering or monitoring software that can block sites or tell you what your kids have been looking at. The sev- enth annual Bell Walk for Kids Help Phone will be held May 4 at Rotary Park in Ajax. Since 2003 Durham Re- gion has raised more than $250,000 for the walk.

It used to tell us whether that bottle could be recycled. Now, the numbers inside tell a different story. If your bottle has a number 7, you’re not in luck. It means the clear, hard plastic bottle you or your baby have been drinking out of may be toxic. “Bottles labelled with a 7 contain hor- mone disrupting bisephonal A or BPA,” said UOIT professor of ecotoxicology, Dr. Doug- las Holdway. “We have animal evidence that the bise- phonal A acts as an artificial estrogen. It has the potential to have serious effects on developmental stages in a baby inside the womb.” It’s because of such research that the fed- eral government announced Friday it in- tends to ban the import and sale of polycar- bonate baby bottles containing bisphenol A. The ban would affect only baby bottles and not other food containers made with bisphenol A (BPA). Many of the country’s largest retailers are refusing to wait for it to become official. Chains like Wal-Mart, Canadian Tire and the Hudson’s Bay company have removed all products made with BPA. That includes reusable water bottles. There’s not one baby bottle left in the Hand Me Downs store on Simcoe Street North. Owner Laurie Tsuyuki, tossed all of the bottles in anticipation of Health Canada’s announcement. “We’re switching to glass,” said Mrs. Tsu- kuki. Dr. Holdway explained the problem isn’t having a drink from a polycarbonate cup. “The worry is how long its been stored in that material and how its been stored.” Walter Passarella/ News Advertiser photo Dr. Douglas Holdway gazes through the glass of one of the many fish tanks in the Aquatic Toxicol- ogy Lab at UOIT.

That is until this year when officers working the RIDE program charged a man with drinking and driving. Upon his release officers again pulled him over in a different car. The man said he didn’t think he could be charged twice, said Deputy Chief Whiteway. Scary and dangerous situations like this one are what the Mothers Against Drunk Driving Durham Region chap- ter and local police are working to stop. Deputy Chief Whiteway was on hand Wednesday night when volunteers and officers who have made a contribu- tion to getting impaired drivers off the street were honoured. Special Constable Sauve earned the Community Hero award and Detective Constable Murray a nomination for police officer of the year. Special Const. Mark Sauve assisted in taking an impaired driver off the streets last summer. The officer was finishing off his dinner break when he saw a car careening past. The man was swerving in and out of traffic and nar- rowly missing pedestrians. The man’s car was seriously dam- aged, which Special Constable Sauve learned later was from two hit and runs during his dangerous ride. Special Constable Sauve and off- duty colleague, Detective Constable Dawna Murray, were able to stop the man from hurting anyone. “It was the first time I had seen the danger in real life,” Special Constable Suave said. “I was glad I was in the right place at the right time.” Claudine Cormier was named MADD’s volunteer of the year. Ms. Cormier has been with the organiza- tion for three years.

The event was part of the Town’s active living strategy to keep older adults fit. But board staff says it’s paying reasonable prices DURHAM — A letter from the Waterloo Region District School Board complaining about the sky- rocketing costs of buying school sites caused a stir at the Durham District School Board’s Monday meeting. The letter, addressed to the ministry of educa- tion and the ministry of municipal affairs and housing, stated the Waterloo board has had to re- sort to expropriation to obtain property for future school sites on time. School boards are allowed to levy education development charges based on the difference be- tween the price of the land at the time of bidding and the price when the site is developed. Oshawa Trustee Michael Barrett said “some builders hold onto land for four or five years and say ‘hey, a school is being built here’. Their intent is good, but the process is weak.” Whitby Trustee John Dolstra questioned the letter’s contention that developers take advantage of school boards by transferring increased land site costs to them rather than absorbing them or passing them on to new homebuyers. “Certainly we’ve seen an increase in property values, but the DDSB uses certified property ap- praisers to determine costs which ensures we’re paying a reasonable price,” said David Visser, the board’s facilities services superintendent. “There has been slightly more increase in property prices than what we anticipated, though.” Public school board wants to get to bottom of high land costs for schools RSS UPDATESRSS UPDATES Get your local news and sports faster at newsdurhamregion.com THE NEWS ADVERTISER, April 25, 2008 PAGE 19 A/Pdurhamregion.com Businesses would open next year By Keith Gilligan kgilligan@durhamregion.com AJAX — A commercial development with about 15,500 square metres (166,600 square feet) of space has been approved for north Ajax. To date, the developer, RioCan, has an- nounced two of the tenants: a Rona outlet and a Scotiabank branch. The project will be at the southeast corner of Taunton and Ravenscroft roads, and the developer hopes to have the project open by next year. Before businesses can move in, traffic lights have to be installed at Taunton and Ravenscroft. The work will be done during the widening of Taunton to four lanes, which Durham Region expects to be completed by the end of this year. When completed, there will be six build- ings and 880 parking spaces. One feature of the project is a ‘Living Wall’ that will act as a sound barrier for loading areas. It’s made up of parallel rows of sup- port posts, boards and rods, which are filled with earth. Vegetation is planted in the soil and once it grows, the wall resembles a hedgerow. In a written report to council’s community affairs and planning committee on Monday, Town planner Kim Darroch noted one ben- efit of a living wall is it can’t be targeted by graffiti. A living wall, which Wards 1 and 2 Region- al Councillor Scott Crawford called, “our own version of a Chia Pet,” would establish itself within one growing season. One of the buildings would be set aside for a grocery store. Jonathan Rodger, a planner representing RioCan, said the supermarket building would be 40,000 sq. ft. and market studies show there’s enough demand to sup- port such a site. Cook for a cure DURHAM — Fire up the grills, it’s time to flip for charity. Franchisees and volunteers will be flipping burgers and hot dogs and ac- cepting donations at the 20th Annual Charity BBQ Day for M&M Meat Shops. The event is Saturday, May 10 from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. at more than 465 store loca- tions, including those in Pickering and Ajax. The goal is to raise $2 million for the Crohn’s and Colitis Foundation of Cana- da (CCFC). For the past 20 years, Char- ity BBQ Day has raised more than $14.5 million for medical research into in- flammatory bowel disease (IBD). For more information about the CCFC, visit www.ccfc.ca.

Before you fire up the grill, consider these tips from The Home Depot Canada to become a barbecue buff: Planning ahead. If you’re in the market for a new and improved way to cook or looking for an upgrade ask yourself: how often will I use the grill; how many people will I cook for on average; what is my available budget? Your answers will help determine the barbecue that best suits your lifestyle and finances. Barbecue type. Gas, charcoal and portable barbecue models each have differ- ent advantages. Natural gas or propane grills are convenient as they regulate heat easily and cook at several different temperatures at once. Grilling with charcoal enhances flavour and allows high temperatures for searing. If you enjoy camping or tailgate parties, portable grills are an economical way to enjoy grilled food away from home. Depending on which grilling features you most value, there is a barbecue for everyone. Prepping. After you buy your barbecue you want to be sure to maintain it so it will last several years. Every Spring, practice the following to keep your grill in working order: • Spring Cleaning. Dirty grill grates cook slower, unevenly and can leave an unpleasant taste. Take the time to clean the grates and enjoy a better meal. • Scrub the burner. Use a wire brush to scrub the burner clean. Cotton swabs or pipe cleaners can help get in hard to reach places. • Inspect the gas hose for leaks. Look at the hose carefully for any sign of damage. If no damage is visible, apply soapy water onto the gas hose and turn on the gas. If bubbles appear, there is a leak. Do not ignite the grill if you suspect gas is leaking; simply replace the hose. • Clean your jets. Check the gas jets and lines for small objects or critters. Clear them out as any clogs can significantly cut down your grill’s perfor- mance. • Keep charcoal grilling outdoors. The biggest health concern with charcoal grilling is carbon monoxide (CO) poisoning. As burned charcoal emits CO, it should never be used indoors. More information about barbecues is available online at homedepot.ca. Barbecue basics homeWEET By Kristen Calis kcalis@durhamregion.com PICKERING — Pickering council is doing its best to ensure the urban forest and tree canopy covering the city will be sustained and enhanced. Council recently unanimously endorsed the development of an Urban Forest Strategy for Pickering, a 50-year plan designed to in- crease or at least maintain tree cover canopy in municipalities. Pickering, Ajax and Ux- bridge are the last three municipalities in Durham Region that haven’t adopted the strategy, Ward 1 Regional Councillor Bonnie Littley pointed out. “This is a good time to do this because we’re in our official plan as well,” she said. Coun. Littley said when development happens, “we want to make sure we have tree-cover in that process.” An urban forest strategy, she pointed out, has a number of benefits, such as: improved air and water quality; reduced energy costs; wildlife habitat; and, invasive-species man- agement. “It’s something we need in long- term planning,” Coun. Littley said. Gary Bowen, a Duffins-Carruthers Wa- tershed Specialist for Toronto and Region Conservation, noted Pickering is doing a lot of work in relation to sustainability. “This is a very logical next step on that road,” he said in a presentation. Andrea Dube, TRCA Duffins-Carruthers Watershed resources planner, noted 78 per cent of Canadians live in urban areas. She described an urban forest, or urban can- opy, as “green you’d see if you flew over a municipality such as Pickering.” She noted protecting and expanding the greenspace is not only good for the environment, but it’s also proven to enhance property values in other municipalities that have embraced a similar strategy. Coun. Littley explained the plan is also a great opportunity to get the community together through a network of environmental stewardship groups. Ward 2 City Councillor David Pickles, who presented the motion with Coun. Littley, noted they’re not seeking money, but will seek out funding partners. Coun. Littley also said it’s important to protect the areas that aren’t large enough to be protected as a woodlot. “We don’t want to keep losing those little bits because they add up to a lot,” she said. She explained City staff and the TRCA will next write up a terms of reference, investi- gate potential funding partners and identify potential stewardship partners.

May 1 1 t h THE NEWS ADVERTISER, April 25, 2008 PAGE 27 A/Pdurhamregion.com More programs become subject to higher than standard fee increases By Reka Szekely rszekely@durhamregion.com DURHAM — More Durham College students are on the fast-track to high tuition fees after the college added nine programs to the “high- demand” category, allowing bigger tuition hikes than on other programs. The provincial government regulates tuition increases and allows a total of five per cent per year for colleges. Colleges are allowed to raise standard tuition fees by 4.5 per cent or $100, whichever is greater. Durham College will do so this fall, raising tuition by $100 to $2,120 on most programs for first-year students. Second- and-third-year students will see a four-per-cent increase. However, the Province also allows colleges to designate programs representing up to 15 per cent of their overall enrolment as so-called high- demand programs. Those programs can raise their tuition by up to eight per cent. As well, all post-graduate certificate programs can be desig- nated high demand. This year, Durham had five high-demand pro- grams-- dental hygiene, game development, pri- mary care paramedic, power engineering techni- cian and pre-service fighter education and train- ing-- totalling six per cent of enrollment. In those programs, this year’s tuition increase will range from $476 in the primary care paramedic program to no increase in the power engineering and the pre-service firefighter programs. The latter two are spared an increase because their related rate of employment is not strong enough to justify it, Durham College president Leah Myers said at Wednesday’s Board of Governors’ meeting. Following a report from Ms. Myers, the board approved adding nine more to the list: anima- tion - digital arts, dental assisting, gas technician 2, graphic design, heating ventilation and air conditioning techniques, human services coun- sellor, mechanical technician - mechanical main- tenance and control, multi media design and practical nursing. The majority of those programs will see a $162 increase in the fall. The college also has nine high-demand gradu- ate certificate programs where the fee hike will range from $556 in the advanced care paramedic program to no increase in advanced law enforce- ment, court and tribunal agent and emergency management programs because of low applica- tions. Ms. Myers said Durham has no choice but to raise fees since the Province’s operating grant to the college is rising by only one per cent while other costs, including labour, are rising more quickly than that. “Tuition is a significant source of revenue to the college, it’s second after operating grants and it’s something we rely on tremendously,” she told the board. By maxing out the college’s share of high- demand programs, Durham stands to generate an extra $100,000 in revenue next year. But, Ms. Myers said the effect is cumulative and in three years the hikes will mean an extra $1 million. Of the five previously existing high-demand programs, three charge the highest tuition fee in the province, including the paramedic program, which will increase to $6,429 from $5,953. Despite that fee, Ms. Myers said there is a healthy demand for the program, with many more students apply- ing than there are spots. Governor Joanne Burghardt said the board didn’t have enough information to make a deci- sion to increase fees. She wanted to see a com- parison between the fees of all the programs the college wanted to classify high-demand, with the average and the median-- the price point where half the fees in the province are below and half are above-- for each program. Ms. Myers said that information was too diffi- cult to compile because staff would have to search each college’s website for each program and it still may not be a true comparison because the programs may be different in content. She did list the figures for the paramedic pro- gram. The lowest fee in the province is $1,998, the average is $2,595 and the median is $2,020. In the end, Ms. Burghardt was the only gover- nor to vote against the tuition increases. “We always say we’re here for the students. I don’t see how we justify paying for our increasing staff costs on the backs of students,” she said. “I’d hazard a guess that our students, who are working at part-time jobs, are not seeing wage increases of five and eight per cent.” But, Ms. Myers said students experiencing fi- nancial hardship would be helped. “We feel very confident students who have dif- ficulty with that kind of increase have access to bursaries and grants.” Durham College hikes tuition fees Tuition fee hikes The fall 2008 tuition fees for first-year students are shown, with the increase over this year listed in brackets.

AJ Groen/ News Advertiser photo Ravens ready to rock Pickering tomorrow Former Glass Tiger drummer, bandmates, play The Harp and Crown April 26 By Roland Cilliers Special to the News Advertiser PICKERING — The former drummer of the chart-topping ‘80s group Glass Tiger is bringing his incredible energy to Pickering for a Saturday night concert. Michael Hanson won five Juno awards and received a Grammy nomination as part of Glass Tiger, and he’s still thrilling audiences with his new band, The Ravens. Hanson is one of the founding members of Glass Tiger, but he left the band in 1990. Since then, he has worked as a producer and songwriter. But while he enjoyed the work, it didn’t provide the fulfilment he got from perform- ing. “Something was missing in my life and I couldn’t for the life of me figure out what it was,” he says. “I’d be walking around and feeling like a fish out of water.” The Ravens were the cure Han- son needed. He plays the drums and is the band’s lead vocalist. “The first practice I had where I was behind the mic singing again everything changed for me. It was like this lightning bolt went off in my head,” says Hanson. The band covers classics from musicians like the Beatles and Glass Tiger as well as more mod- ern songs from contemporary artists. The Ravens members hope to emulate the energy of some of their favourite bands. “When you look at the early Beatles doing the early stuff at The Cavern, you can just see that pumping rock ’n’ roll insanity that’s running through their veins and you can feel that. That magic doesn’t exist in every band,” says Hanson. The Ravens will be displaying their own brand of rock ’n’ roll insanity in the near future, as the band is working on developing their own original songs. “We are in the process of writ- ing the whole record. We’ve got about six songs that are ready to start being worked up in rehears- al but are not quite ready for live yet,” says Hanson. Fans can expect original mate- rial from The Ravens this fall. In the meantime, the band is per- forming at The Harp and Crown, 300 Kingston Road (at Altona Road). The band takes to the stage at 10 p.m on Saturday, April 26. It is a age 19 and over event, but admission is free. submitted photo The Ravens are in Pickering tomorrow night. Band members are, from left to right, Jimmy Cooper, Michael Hanson (seated at front), Alan Palmquist and Frody Nelson. ‘Something was missing from my life and I couldn’t for the life of me figure out what it was.

Dunbarton Fairport United Church is holding its 4th Annual Art Show, featuring a variety of work from several artists. The event runs for three days, May 2 from 1 to 9 p.m., May 3 from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. and May 4 from noon to 3 p.m. The church is located at 1066 Dunbarton Rd. in Pickering. (Dunbarton Road is just north of Kingston Road, off Dixie Road). For more information call the church at 905-839-7271. Meet show’s three artists AJAX — Celebrate the spring weather with an exhibition of the paintings of Janice Brown, Judith Jewer and Irene Leach. A Celebration of Colour features a variety of art work and is in the atrium of the McLean Com- munity Centre, located at 95 Magill Dr., in Ajax. The show is from April 22 to May 25, and the public can view the exhibit Mondays to Fridays from 6 a.m. to 10:30 p.m. and on Saturdays and Sundays from 7 a.m. to 9 p.m. Admission is free. Janice Brown’s work is very eye catching and bold. “I love the play of light and dark and use this in my work,” she says in a press release. “I also like movement in my paintings or the illu- sion of movement. While I paint in oils, acryl- ics, and watercolours this show will consist of oils and acrylics. All of my pieces show life hap- pening and I paint from the heart as I see life.” Pickering resident Judith Jewer loves painting outside, and finds that nature awakens a sense of heightened joy. “I especially love to create beauty through shapes and textures. I love bright colours and developing a sense of the quality of light and spatial depth in my paintings,” she says in the press release. “My style utilities the full range of acrylic painting techniques from textures to glazes.” Irene Leach paints with loud, vibrant and eccen- tric colours. “I try to create realistic scenes that show life as being bigger than it is,” she states. “My inspiration is my grandchildren, and that is where the whimsy comes in because I am creating paintings that would appeal to the children.” Meet the artists on Sunday, April 27 from 12:30 to 4:30 p.m. at the McLean Community Centre in Community Room One. Art in public places is a PineRidge Arts Council initiative with the Town of Ajax. 6kV^aVWaZBdcYVn";g^YVnjci^a'eb PICK ’N PAIR LUNCH COMBOS UBHOJUSBU4  Choose from over 60 combinations AJAX 155 Kingston Road East (across from Costco) To Go 905-426-6440 23 locations across Canada LANGUAGE INSTRUCTION FOR NEWCOMERS TO CANADA CALL ROSE 1-866-550-5462 CHILDCARE AVAILABLE www.durhamLINC.caTHEDURHAMCATHOLICDISTRICTSCHOOLBOARDCOMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT COUNCIL DURHAM IN PARTNERSHIP WITH DURHAM REGION SENIOR CENTRES -07&-054-07&-054-"6()0'5&/-"6()0'5&/ -*7&8&---*7&8&-- 50+50+ SHOWSHOW 5th Annual this year at the Metroland Durham Region Media Group presents: Come experience the areas leading professionals catering to the 50+ market For vendor information please contact Laurie at 905-683-5110 Ext. 230 800 Champlain Ave, Oshawa FREE ADMISSION Town of Whitby Seniors Services PORTP E R RY S E NI ORS905.576.6712 905.420.6588 905.619.2529 905.697.2856 905.668.1424 905.985.2802 FEATURING TRAVEL RECREATION LIFESTYLE HEALTH & WELLNESS PRIZES SEMINARS REFRESHMENTS KEYNOTE SPEAKERS FASHION SHOW DINNER & DANCEWednesday, May 7 10:00 am – 8:00 pm Thursday, May 8 10:00 am – 3:00 pm 2 DAYS OF FUN!

Richard, 16, and Joel, 14, have been competing -- and winning - - against the best snowboarders in the province and the nation this past season in a sport where athletes rely on skill, timing and agility while hur- tling down a slalom course. And, next season, the brothers are looking to compete together at NorAm (North American) snow- boarding events under their boards next season in an attempt to qualify for the Canadian team competing at the 2009 junior worlds. As Joel will get his FIS (Federation Internatio- nale de Ski) licence this year at age 15, he’ll be eligible to compete in NorAm events this upcoming sea- son. But, don’t look for any sibling ri- valry on the snowboarding course. “I’ll be racing at the same level and racing against him, but no, there’s no rivalry,” says Joel, a Dunbarton High School student. Richard has raced in six NorAm events over the past two seasons, culminating in the 2008 National Snowboarding Championships in Mount Hood, Ore. in March. There, while racing in slalom and giant sla- lom events against older, more ex- perienced competition, Richard was a surprising 19th after the first day of racing, putting him first among the Canadian juniors in the race. Disaster, however, struck on Day 2. A fall had the devastating effect of pushing him back to 28th place overall in the slalom event. He still managed to come second among Canadian juniors at nationals. “I had the best run of my life on the first day,” explains Richard, also a Dunbarton High School student. “But, because of the fall, I finished well back.” In addition to finishing second among Canadian juniors in slalom, Richard placed third in the giant slalom among Canadian juniors at nationals. Richard also put together a fine season on the AOS (Association of Ontario Snowboarders) Provincial Points Series in 2007-08, placing second at Mount St. Louis-Moon- stone in January and first at Man- sfield Ski Resort in February in the men’s open (17-and-over) division, where he raced against older com- petition. He also placed first in Cale- don and was disqualified in a race at the Alpine Ski Club in Collingwood in February. Meanwhile, Joel placed second at Mount St. Louis-Moonstone and first at Mansfield Ski Resort in the junior (under-15) division. He also placed first at the Caledon event and fifth at the Alpine club. The Evanoffs’ best results of the season came against top U.S. com- petition at a U.S. Snowboarding As- sociation event at Holimont Ski Hill in western New York. Richard raced there on two weekends last winter, winning five gold medals and post- ing the five fastest times in the men’s open events. Meanwhile, Joel finished with three silver and a bronze medal in the junior category. For the Evanoffs, who learned to ski and trained up until last year at the Kirby Ski Club, near Oshawa, snowboarding has been a way of life for them since learning as young- sters. Richard began competing by age 7, while Joel also became in- volved in competition at that age. Richard says there are plenty of traits that make up a good snow- board racer. “You have to have endurance and balance and you have to have good racing lines and make smart choices real fast,” says Richard. “You have to adapt to each hill and the con- ditions because they change every day. When we were in Oregon, dur- ing the training runs there was a foot or two of powder. When we raced, it was icy and rock hard, so the condi- tions changed drastically.” For Joel, it’s a blast to be slashing down a slalom course, with board and rider in perfect balance. “It’s mostly because of the speed. You can go pretty fast when you’re doing it. It’s pretty cool when you’re training, you get so low to the ground.” AJ Groen/ News Advertiser photo Pickering brothers Richard, left, and Joel Evanoff won 17 medals on the North American (NorAm) snowboarding circuit this year. Eight of Richard’s were gold. The snowboarding duo also put together a number of wins on the AOS (Asso- ciation of Ontario Snowboarders) Provincial Points Series last season. ‘You have to have endurance and balance and you have to have good racing lines and make smart choices real fast.’ -- RICHARD EVANOFF DURHAM — The Ajax-Pickering tween ‘C’ ringette team outduelled Oshawa in the final to claim the gold medal at the recent Central Ontario Re- gion Ringette League Championships. The Ajax-Pickering squad — which played up in the minor tween ‘B’ divi- sion — held off a hard-charging Oshawa team to eke out a 5-4 victory. Oshawa appeared to have netted the tying goal with 30 seconds remaining in the game, but the referee waved it off, owing to an Oshawa player’s skate in the crease. The Ajax-Pickering tweens held a 4-1 advantage through the first period, but Oshawa put the pressure on in the final period to make for an exciting finish. After the controversy of the called- back Oshawa goal, Pickering managed to hold Oshawa at bay the rest of the way to claim the regional champion- ship. Emma Darcy, Jessica Arndt, Amanda Clark, Elysia Thomas and Jenna Salva- tore scored for Ajax-Pickering. The local tweens needed a victory over Whitby to have any hope of advanc- ing to the final. And, the Ajax-Pickering squad did just that, winning by a 7-3 count. Ajax-Pickering scored five unan- swered second-period markers en route to the victory. Laura Parrott and Thom- as paced Ajax-Pickering with two goals apiece. Salvatore, Darcy and Elizabeth Carmichael added singles. Whitby entered the CORL champion- ships as the No. 1 team in the league with a perfect 6-0 record. The win meant Ajax-Pickering fin- ished in a three-way tie with Oshawa and Whitby, each with 2-1 mark (as Ajax-Pickering played four games in- stead of three, one of its losses was dropped). After a tie-breaking formula was applied, Ajax-Pickering finished first in round-robin play, with Whitby being knocked out of gold-medal con- tention. Ajax-Pickering started the tourney with a 2-1 win over Manvers. All the scoring was done in the first period. Salvatore had one and Clarke, with two seconds remaining in the frame, netted the game winner. In Game 2, Ajax-Pickering dropped their first game of the tourney, a 5-3 de- cision to Oshawa. Arndt, Katelyn New- man and Carmichael scored. The Ajax-Pickering tweens dropped a 9-6 decision to West Muskoka in Game 3. Newman led the way with three goals, Arndt netted two and Salvatore chipped in with a single. Other team members are Breanna Nembhard, Lauren Fahey, Emily and Laura Nicholson, Andrea Larney and Alyssa Campbell.
