Seniors get their break But parent questions where Province will find money for public education system BByy MMiikkee RRuuttaa Staff Writer DDUURRHHAAMM —— Seniors and private school parents received a break this week. New provincial laws mean se- niors who own or rent will re- ceive a tax credit for the educa- tion property taxes they pay, while the Province also in- creased the tax credit rate for private school tuition. In a press release, Premier Ernie Eves said the Ontario Home Property Tax Relief for Seniors Act will see seniors fi- nally get a deserved tax break, after years of “working hard, raising families and building the strong province we enjoy today.” The private school credit, in- troduced two years ago, is de- signed to give parents more choice of where they send their children to school. Parents can now claim 20 per cent of eligible tuition fees, up to $7,000 per child. By 2006 parents will be able to claim 50 per cent. Senior households are in line for an average savings of $475 per year when the credit takes full effect in 2004, but will also get a break for the second half of this year. While the Province claims public education funding will not suffer, Joe Petrie isn’t con- vinced. The Sunderland resi- dent is a member of the Sunder- land Public School community council. “I’m afraid that they’re going to be shifting money out of pub- lic education with this,” said Mr. Petrie. “It’s the same pool (of money); if they’re giving tax cuts ✦See Enough page 2 P PAGE 2 NEWS ADVERTISER, SUNDAY EDITION, June 29, 2003 www.durhamregion.com Join us to celebrate Canada’s Birthday with Live Entertainment by Singer and Guitarist Steve Paul Simms CALL 905-668-5509 For Picking Days and Picking Information NW Corner At Taunton & Coronation Roads HARWOOD HWY. 2 WHITBY HWY. 7 RD. 4 OR TAUNTON CORONATIONLAKERIDGE RD. 23HARWOODROSSLAND RASPBERRIES & BEANS Monday to Friday 8am-8pm Saturday Sunday and Holidays 8am-6pm Zdanowicz Farm & Greenhouses STRAWBERRIES & PEAS FARM MARKET & U PICK MID JULY: Brock North Dental OPEN EVENINGS & SATURDAY CONTACT US AT 905-427-7773 • DIGITAL X-RAY • INTRA ORAL CAMERA • TV IN OPERATORIES • KIDS PLAY STATION 2 • DIRECT BILLING TO INSURANCE NOW ACCEPTING N EW PATIENTS 2200 Brock Road in the Brock North Plaza Dr. Fernandes, Jill, Robbin,Mary, Michele, Michelle, Donna, Vanda, Dr. Pacione, Angie, Angela, Brenda, Dr. Sbaraglia ( Anaesthesiologist) Not Shown - Dr. Dagher (Endodontist), Anna, Julianne Coming Soon-Orthodontist SPECIALSALE Carrier of The Week If you did not receive your News Advertiser/flyers OR you are interested in a paper route call Circulation at (905) 683-5117.

The public sys- tem, I think, is going to suf- fer.” He admitted that com- menting on the tax relief for seniors is “a tough call. “I know seniors are on fixed pensions and the day-to-day living costs for them are going up.” He would prefer, howev- er, to see seniors given a break on the mill rate rather than on education taxes, since property as- sessments have risen due to market value assess- ment. Finance Minister Janet Ecker said Friday public education remains the gov- ernment’s “primary focus. “People may agree or disagree with more tax re- lief for seniors. The tax re- lief for seniors has no bear- ing on funding for schools. Funding for schools is dri- ven by the student-focused funding formula, not the level of property tax rev- enue.” While the government is helping private school par- ents, the government will spend a record $15.3 billion on Ontario public schools in the coming school year, said Ms. Ecker. There is enough money in the pot to do both, she said. The government be- lieves lowering taxes stim- ulates economic growth and creates jobs, in turn in- creasing tax revenue, said Ms. Ecker. She added the record over the past eight years has borne that out: the Province is collecting $16 billion more in revenue than when it came to power in 1995. Education is funded from a variety of sources, she said, including sales and business taxes.

Suspect arrested at work after three-month investigation BByy SStteepphheenn SShhaaww Staff Writer DDUURRHHAAMM ––––An Oshawa truck driver was charged Thursday with murder- ing his wife, who was found blud- geoned to death in their home. Homicide detectives early yester- day arrested John Michael England at his workplace Mackie Moving Sys- tems, on Bloor Street West, more than three months after Laura Eng- land was killed. The 29-year-old former Oshawa resident, who is currently living in Ajax, is charged with second-degree murder. The arrest comes after a 14-week Durham Regional Police investiga- tion into Mrs. England’s brutal death, the region’s second homicide of 2003. The body of the 30-year-old victim was found March 6 in the couple’s Down Crescent home near Townline Road and Bloor Street in the city’s east end. Her mother made the grisly discov- ery after she had gone to the resi- dence to check on her daughter, who she hadn’t heard from in several days. An autopsy showed Mrs. England died of blunt force trauma to her head. Lead investigators, homicide detec- tives J.J. Allan and Dave Henderson, allege she was killed between Feb. 27 and March 6. They wouldn’t say if a weapon was used or recovered. Mr. England was on the road out- side Durham when his wife’s body was discovered. Last month, as the investigation in- tensified, police conducted a search of the north side of Hwy. 401, between Harmony and Park roads, looking for potential evidence linked to the slay- ing, and said an arrest loomed. A suspect had been under police surveillance for several weeks. After several hours of police ques- tioning, a handcuffed Mr. England made a brief appearance in Oshawa bail court late in the day sporting a shaved head and thin goatee, wearing a white T-shirt and blue shorts. “He realized that this day was com- ing. He’s been extremely co-opera- tive,” said Det. Henderson outside the court. Neighbours said the quiet couple had lived at the two-storey home for three years and that Mrs. England worked in promotions. Police said the couple had been having recent marital troubles and were in the process of separating at the time of Mrs. England’s death. “They had agreed to separate but they were still living under the same roof at the time,” said Det. Hender- son. After his wife’s death, Mr. England, now of Exeter Road, moved to Ajax and has been living in a common-law relationship with another woman. The victims’ parents, who live in Markham, had mixed emotions when given the news of the arrest, said Det. Henderson. “It’s provided them with some com- fort, but they’re also extremely upset. Upset at the prospect of the crime having been committed by their son- in-law,” said Det. Henderson. Justice of the Peace Carl Young re- manded Mr. England into custody and put the case over to Wednesday at the request of defence counsel Alex Sosna. Detention is automatic for persons charged with murder and Mr. Eng- land, who has no criminal record, must apply to the Superior Court of Justice to seek bail. A bail application may be made in the coming weeks, said Mr. Sosna. www.durhamregion.com NEWS ADVERTISER, SUNDAY EDITION, June 29, 2003 PAGE 3 A/P THEDURHAMC ATHOL I C DISTRICT SCHOOLBOARDSummer Spanish Classes!!!

In your recent grading of Mayor Wayne Arthurs you failed miserably to address the most important issue fac- ing the taxpayers of Pickering. You should have pointed out Mayor Arthurs should now decide if he wants to continue as mayor or attempt to be- come an MPP for the area. The pre- sent plan of Mayor Arthurs is to run for the mayoralty if the provincial elec- tion hasn't been called by the time the municipal elections are called, and then run for the Liberals when the provincial election is called. As it is Mayor Arthurs wants his cake and to eat it too, never mind the cost to the local taxpayer for another byelection should he be successful in his foremost desire to become an MPP. If the mayor had confidence in him- self he would decide now, not sit on the fence to feed from the public trough win or lose. I can tell from experience the amount of energy it takes to run a provincial election campaign, there is no time left for anything else. Once the provincial election is called Mayor Arthurs must resign his council seat. He owes this to all taxpayers.

The conservative think tank recently published a list of almost 3,000 Ontario elementary schools, giving each a score out of 10 based upon the Education Quality and Accountability Office Grade 3 and 6 test results. Some local schools finished very low on the list, and most are located in Oshawa, including Glen Street, Mary Street, Gertrude Colpus and Ritson Road public schools. Lord Durham Public School in Ajax was also near the bottom, tied for spot 2,790 with a 2.5 out of 10. Teachers, principals, superintendents and ed- ucation directors fear the average citizen will look upon the rankings as the final word on what kind of school it is, and many do. I've often had parents and co-workers ask me how a certain school they were con- sidering for their child did on the EQAO tests. I tell them not to lean too heavily on EQAO results in making a decision. After all, there are a lot of other factors involved. Peter Cowley is co-author of the Fraser Institute report and made it clear the rankings are about acade- mics only. They do not contain ex- planations of why schools did as well or as poorly as they did. The re- port in that context does have va- lidity. Marks are completely objec- tive and do reveal important infor- mation. They say something about how students, their teachers, the principal and the school board in general are doing. But it's what the report doesn't say that we should consider. I've interviewed princi- pals in south Oshawa and they are very cautious when speaking of some of the challenges their stu- dents face. It is among the poorest parts of Durham Region and many work extremely hard to make ends meet as they have no other choice. Getting involved in their child's edu- cation, important for success, is dif- ficult because they might not have the spare time other parents have or perhaps aren't confident enough to assist their kids with schoolwork. Mr. Cowley says people in disad- vantaged areas should not see that as a barrier to improvement. Other schools in their circumstances have done well and they can too, he said. Students are more than just their EQAO test scores. However, contin- ued efforts are necessary to try and help students meet their full poten- tial. They are capable; it's just much more of an uphill climb. The goal is not just to do well on the assess- ments, but also to succeed in life. Students more than EQAO scores MMiikkee RRuuttaa ss tt aa ff ff ww rr ii tt ee rr A chance to reflect on our identity Canada Day also about friendship with our southern neighbour Every year, usually in beautiful clear sunshine, right at the very midpoint of the calendar, Canadians party from coast-to-coast. Other than another statutory holiday, what exactly does Canada Day mean to us? Placed so close in time to the July 4 In- dependence Day festivities celebrated by our huge neighbour to the south, Canada Day provides us with a chance to compare and contrast the country we inhabit with the nation with which we are so closely identified and connected. Yes, it must be said, Americans are our closest friends. We va- cation and visit there so regularly, it's almost second nature to us to head to the States. And once we are there, the differences are far-outweighed by the similarities. We both value freedom and civil and human rights. We both, in nearly all cases, fight side-by-side for the causes we believe in. We share a common principal language and are linked in so many ways by media that cross borders unobstructed. We have not been at war in nearly 200 years, an amazing feat when considered against the track record of the countries of Europe, Asia, Africa or South America. For nearly two centuries, Prime Ministers and Presi- dents and the people they serve have realized our friendship is far more valuable and sensible than any enmity that may exist between us. Should we have a dispute, we act like adults and talk it out. At times there are suggestions Canada ought to just toss our lot in with the United States and become linked with the world's most powerful nation. But, such a decision, and it presumes the United States would want Canada warts and all, would not serve the nation we have become. For in Canada, we do cele- brate our differences. We do not try to bury our problems or let the majority tyrannize the minority. We are strong enough to de- criminalize our pot laws, or consider same-sex marriage, or up- hold the rights of French-speaking citizens to be treated equal- ly and fairly no matter where they live in Canada. Health care, called 'socialized medicine' in the United States, is critically im- portant to us, something we cannot give up. And when a war comes along which many of us do not agree with, we want the right to say so and not serve. Yes, we do have our differences, but our similarities and the friendship they engender mean so much more. So let us cele- brate this Tuesday and Friday as two of the greatest countries on Earth wish themselves happy birthday. CONCERNED ABOUT YOUR FEET? SALMAN ALAM B.SC., D.CH.

TO ADVERTISE IN THE HEALTH & BEAUTY FEATURE CONTACT MARILYN BROPHY AT 905-683-5110 What attracts biting insects to us? Our breath! Carbon dioxide (CO2), moisture, and heat that result from exhaling lets the female mosquito know that there is a blood meal in the area. She will navigate to you by following the plume of CO2. How does the Mosquito Magnet® work? Mimicking human breath, a warm, moist carbon dioxide plume is produced from propane gas to attract the blood seeking insects. As the biting insects approach the source, they are vacuumed into a net where they dehydrate and die. The Mosquito Magnet® also uses octenol, which when combined with carbon dioxide, enhances the catch rate for certain species of mosquitoes and no-see-ums. Which biting insects will the Mosquito Magnet® capture? Female blood seeking insects such as mosquitoes, no- see-ums (biting gnats), black flies, and sand flies. In some regions, the Mosquito Magnet® has captured the yellow biting fly. Will the Mosquito Magnet® capture bees, moths, butterflies, ladybugs or other beneficial insects? No. Blood seeking insects have receptors in their maxillary palps (mouth parts) that sense carbon dioxide. Non-blood seeking insects, without these receptors, are not attracted. Where should I place the Mosquito Magnet®? We recommend that you place the Mosquito Magnet® near where the mosquitoes rest (foliage) and breed (water), not near people. If placed properly the Mosquito Magnet® will draw the mosquitoes to it and away from you. Click here for more on Placement How soon will I see a difference in my yard? The Mosquito Magnet® will begin trapping female mosquitoes immediately if placed properly in your yard. You should begin to see a difference within a few weeks. Within 4-6 weeks the mosquito breeding cycle will be interrupted, drastically reducing the population in your yard. Is it possible to dramatically reduce the biting insect population in an area? Yes. 90% of the mosquitoes biting you live within 100 yards of where you are. The other 10% are brought in by the wind. (Most mosquitoes do not migrate.) They cannot detect your carbon dioxide beyond 100 yards. As the females are trapped, the generations are eliminated, thereby interrupting the breeding cycle in that area. This usually occurs after 4 to 6 weeks of continuous use. How many mosquitoes can I expect to capture? The quantity of mosquitoes caught varies greatly, depending on your region’s infestation level and how it is placed on your property. In tests in the Florida Everglades (high infestation) 1,500 were captured in one night. In more urban areas, catch results may be much less. A good yardstick is “Am I being bitten?”. What maintenance is necessary to keep the Mosquito Magnet® running effectively? The propane tank and octenol cartridge should be replaced every 21 days. (We recommend having a full tank on-hand to swap out. The mosquitoes will quickly repopulate if the Mosquito Magnet® is turned off.) The net should be emptied when it is half full. What other fuel can be used to run the Mosquito Magnet®? Any combination of propane and butane can be used, including pure butane. Natural gas cannot be used. Is the Mosquito Magnet cost-effective? Yes. Estimated propane costs are $10 - $12 per month. The new Mosquito Magnet Liberty consumes no more electricity than an electric clock. Fighting West Nile Virus Naturally 2002 Article provided by Barklays, The Outdoor Specialist www.durhamregion.com NEWS ADVERTISER, SUNDAY EDITION, June 29, 2003 PAGE 7 A/P Councillors map out strategic plan BByy JJaaccqquuiiee MMccIInnnneess Staff Writer DDUURRHHAAMM ––––Durham’s future was in the hands of its politi- cians as elected officials hashed out a strategic plan for the region at a two-day re- treat earlier this month. “We now have a vision for Durham and a timetable for what we want to accomplish,” said Regional Chairman Roger Anderson. “We went through all the comments of citizens who attended the meetings held at each munic- ipality. We really couldn’t have done it without the pub- lic consultation.” All but three of Durham’s regional councillors attended the retreat, along with senior staff members and consul- tants who worked over the past winter on the plan. Scugog Mayor Doug Mof- fatt, who chaired the strate- gic plan committee and the various meetings, said politi- cians did not make a lot of changes to the draft plan pre- sented to them, which was strongly based on that public input. “There was an overview and we broke into small groups and discussed it but very few changes were sug- gested. The retreat was the most productive one we’ve had and the most co-opera- tive,” he added. “The strategic plan is pret- ty important for Durham Re- gion. If we’d done this exer- cise in the beginning, at the formation of the Region, we’d be a lot further along. Every- one at the retreat expressed support and my sense is that’s because we did such a good job listening to the pub- lic,” said Mayor Moffatt. The biggest concerns the committee heard from resi- dents centred around trans- portation issues of all types as well as environmental pro- tection issues. In total there are six key elements to the strategic plan that “hang to- gether” and most be consid- ered in concert. Those issues will need to be considered as part of Durham’s official plan, which is now under re- view, said Chairman Ander- son. The strategic plan must be approved by regional council. It is expected to be consid- ered at the final meeting be- fore summer break, July 9. The next step, says Mayor Moffatt, will be creating a blueprint to make the plan a reality.

Grads celebrate big moment DDUURRHHAAMM –––– It was a festive day for Durham College graduates as they fil- tered into the Civic Auditorium draped in black gowns for Spring Convocation. Students from eight different pro- grams took to the stage throughout the day last Friday, to receive their hard-earned diplomas. People were greeted by tables upon tables of bouquets of red roses and picture frames for diplomas as they entered the centre. The Civic stands filled quickly with family and friends trying to get the best seats, armed with cameras and Kleenex at the ready. Below the stands, excited stu- dents talking of future plans and rem- iniscing about old times huddled in the hallways. The lights dimmed, the ceremony began and the sound of a single bagpiper filled the air. The crowd stood as the Oshawa Civic Band took over and began the procession. Parents waved furiously in attempts to get their child’s atten- tion while snapping pictures. Stu- dents held their composure while they gracefully took their seats. Guest speaker Dr. Peter Zakarow, a local dental surgeon and past chair- man of the Durham College board of governors, spoke of his own experi- ences both as a student and as a par- ent who watched his own children graduate. As the conferring of diplomas began the atmosphere in the building quickly changed. The subdued and refined group of graduates quickly changed to a loud and rowdy crowd who crossed the stage to whoops and screams from friends. As the names of graduates were called out family members stood out from the masses in a show of emotion. One student’s diploma in particular garnered much attention. Jenna and Justin Corby accepted their brother Trevor’s diploma posthumously. Trevor was killed last February in a car accident. He was to graduate from the School of Technology in computer systems technology. “It was a little upsetting,” said Jenna of the ceremony. “I was really nervous because there were a lot of people there. But I am glad I went.” She will be going into OAC at Paul Dwyer next fall and hopes to become a fashion buyer when she graduates. “It meant a lot to receive [Trevor’s] diploma because he worked so hard for it. I am glad that we could do it for him.” Professor of design and communi- cation Peter Hupka was thrilled to see his students graduate. “It is always a great day because it culminates with all their hard work and right now they can be as happy and successful as we feel for them and I am sure they are feeling just as suc- cessful for themselves.” AAlleexxiiss SScciiuukk DD uu rr hh aa mm DD aa yy TT rr ii pp pp ee rr A/P PAGE 10 NEWS ADVERTISER, SUNDAY EDITION, June 29, 2003 www.durhamregion.com SSppoorrttss SUNDAY, JUNE 29, 2003 ✦ News Advertiser ✦ AL RIVETT, SPORTS EDITOR 905-683-5110 EXT. 250 Box lacrosse offers perfect training ground for hockey players with great expectations BByy BBrriiaann MMCCNNaaiirr Staff Writer DDUURRHHAAMM –––– It’s an annual rite of spring: no sooner are hockey sticks and pucks cleared from the streets and driveways, than they are replaced by lacrosse sticks and Indian rubber balls. But, while the tools are different, those wielding them are, for the most part, the same. Hockey in the winter, box lacrosse in the summer. It’s a recipe that offers no respite for garage doors, but one that seems to be working for those in pursuit of a hockey ca- reer. It worked, at least, for Gary Roberts, Adam Foote, Joe Nieuwendyk and broth- ers Keith and Wayne Primeau, all of who played lacrosse growing up in Whitby and all of whom have enjoyed lengthy careers in the National Hockey League, four arguably as superstars. That’s an incredible success ratio for a town no bigger than 30,000 when the fab five were growing up. So, one can’t help but wonder if lacrosse gave them the edge needed to live a dream that goes unrealized by so many others. Foote, for one, conceded as much fol- lowing his second Stanley Cup win with the Colorado Avalanche in 2001. “I don’t know if that helped, but in the back of my head I think it must have,” Foote said when asked if lacrosse helped further his hockey career. “It’s kind of the same game (as hockey). I don’t know if it toughens you up or helps your hand-eye co- ordination or keeps you in shape.” All three, it seems. If the Whitby players in the NHL have one thing in common, it’s that they’re as tough as nails. Given the choice between standing in the crease with Foote nearby or heading into a corner with Roberts, most right-minded people would find a new sport to play. But while Roberts agrees with Foote that lacrosse is a tremendous sport that develops a number of relevant hockey skills, he doesn’t believe it was responsible for pushing him over the top in hockey. Rather, he believes it may ultimately be responsible for shortening his NHL career. He, Nieuwendyk and Foote have all battled numerous injuries throughout their NHL careers. “I played a contact sport year-round for seven years and I think it eventually takes a toll on your body,” says Roberts, a 37- year-old winger approaching his final year of a contract with the Toronto Maple Leafs. Roberts says he was convinced by his hockey buddies to switch summer sports from soccer to lacrosse at the age of 12 and continued through to junior, where he won Minto Cups along with Nieuwendyk in 1984 and 1985. (Roberts missed the 1985 cham- pionship game after getting a hefty speed- ing ticket trying to return to Whitby from Ottawa, where he was training with the 67’s of the Ontario Hockey League). “We thought soccer was for softies,” says Roberts, who bought into the macho theo- ry at the time, but has long since changed his opinion. Roberts was cross-checked in the neck in a lacrosse game more than 20 years ago and taken, motionless, by stretcher to hos- pital. It was the beginning of serious neck problems for Roberts, who missed most of three straight NHL seasons - including the entire 1996-97 campaign - following a simi- lar incident in hockey. A fitness freak now, Roberts neverthe- less admits next season could be his last if, as expected, the NHL shuts down for any serious length of time. He believes he might have been able to play longer if not for the beating he took playing lacrosse. “Lacrosse was great to me and I think it’s an awesome game for kids to play,” says Roberts, who still sponsors a team in Whit- by. “Can I honestly sit here and tell you I’m an NHL player because of lacrosse? I would have to say ‘no’.” Yet, surely it’s more than a coincidence so many local lacrosse players have gone on to bigger and better things in hockey. Among those possibly on the verge of joining the NHL ranks are Oshawa’s Jason Wa rd and Whitby’s Jay Harrison. Both played minor lacrosse in Whitby and starred for the Warriors. Clayton McDonald, president of the Whitby Minor Lacrosse Association, cer- tainly believes his association is helping groom quality hockey players, as much for the confidence factor as skill development. “Absolutely,” McDonald says when asked if lacrosse plays a big role in the de- velopment of hockey players. “It allows kids to develop confidence, es- pecially when they get into contact hock- ey.” McDonald estimates 90 to 95 per cent of the 1,500 players registered with the WMLA play hockey in the winter. Doug Luey, past president of the WMLA and current general manager of the Clar- ington Green Gaels Junior B lacrosse team, says playing lacrosse in the summer offers kids a refreshing break from hockey, while developing their conditioning, reflex- es, speed and team play. “I think they’re ruining hockey because so many kids are playing 300 times a year,” Luey says in reference to those who play hockey year-round. “That’s why you have kids burning out by bantam. It’s nuts... I think it’s hurting both sports.” Fo rtunately, Whitby seems to have found as nice a balance as possible. Five NHLers can’t be wrong.
