HomeMy WebLinkAboutNA2004_11_19Draft projects 2012 opening date, but federal government still has final say By Danielle Milley Staff Writer PICKERING — More than 11 mil- lion people could be flying into and out of the proposed Pickering air- port within 30 years. The proposed plan calls for it to handle general aviation from the Buttonville, Markham and Oshawa airports when it opens in 2012 and commercial spillover from Pearson International Airport starting in 2022. The Greater Toronto Airports Authority released its draft plan re- port for the north Pickering airport Nov. 17. It was asked by the federal government, which owns the land, to initiate the planning. Under the projected activity, by 2022 6.6 million passengers are ex- pected to use the new regional air- port and that is projected to climb to 11.9 million in 2032 when Pearson reaches its capacity. “The forecast clearly shows there will be a demand over the next 20 or 30 years for a capacity Pearson can’t handle,” said Steve Shaw, the GTAA’s vice-president of corporate affairs and communications, at a media briefing Wednesday morn- ing. Pearson is currently handling 25 million passengers and has a capac- ity for double that. Pickering Ward 3 City Council- lor Dave Pickles, a member of the Pickering Advisory Committee, was briefed on the plan Wednes- day morning.

McLean said. “It is most important we retain this medal in Canada for our school children.” Mr. Topham, a Canadian, was The Pickering 44 PAGES ✦ Pressrun 48,600 ✦ Metroland Durham Region Media Group ✦ FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 19, 2004 ✦ Optional delivery $6 / Newsstand $1 PROGRAM REGISTRATION!

Although many of the young people who were in attendance at the party, at a home on Larksmere Court, originally appeared reluc- tant to help investigators, eventu- ally they began to come forward with information that led to the busts, said Detective Emmanuel Iheme. “It’s a relief for the police to know that, even when you en- counter people who don’t want to speak, there are some people in the community who know it was wrong,” Det. Iheme said follow- ing the arrest of five men, all of them from Pickering and Ajax, on charges of aggravated assault. Det. Iheme credited parents of some of the young people who’d been at the party with convincing their sons and daughters to help police. “It was tough at the beginning,” he said. “But we just kept at it. We had numerous people at the party come forward.” Police were called to the house, in the Brock Road and Hwy. 401 area, after violence broke out at a party in the early morning hours of July 24. The party was attended by numerous teenagers from Picker- ing and Ajax, police said. The 19-year-old victim arrived with some friends around 11 p.m., and when they left sometime later, the group was confronted by other youths. They chased the victim and confronted him in the backyard of a home on Beachlawn Crescent, police said. The young man sus- tained several stab wounds to his upper body and wound up in in- tensive care at a Toronto hospital. The victim has since recovered, Det. Iheme said. He said reluctance among wit- nesses is a roadblock investigators routinely deal with. Their silence can sometimes be motivated by fear they’ll be targeted for speak- ing out. “There’s a lot of that concern,” Det. Iheme said. “Also, people just don’t want to get involved.” But failing to speak up, for what- ever reason, just helps perpetuate the cycles of crime and violence, Det. Iheme said. “That’s the message we want to get out: When things happen and we don’t say anything, all we’re doing is empowering the perpetra- tors.” Charged with aggravated as- sault in connection with the attack in July are Julian McIntosh, 19, of Hopkinson Crescent in Ajax; Oneill Grant, 21, of McSweeney Crescent, Pickering; 18-year-old Javan Archer-Lyons of Wildwood Crescent, Pickering; Anthony Bai- ley, 19, of Thicket Crescent in Ajax and 19-year-old Tope Olusoga of Fieldlight Boulevard, Pickering. To pe Olusoga is also charged with two counts of breach of pro- bation, failing to comply with an undertaking, possession of a controlled substance and several Highway Traffic Act offences. Three other men are charged with obstructing police: Christo- pher Brady, 21, of Whites Road, Pickering; 20-year-old Jason Wil- son of Gill Crescent, Ajax, and Ivan Hamilton, 20, of Church Street, Pickering.

For the past two years, community members, social services agen- cies (including the Region) and non-profit organizations have been meeting to find a solu- tion. "There currently is not an emergency shelter in Durham for youth," said Mr. Robin- son, who worked with a youth shelter in Toronto for 12 years. "Where do those kids go? You don't want to put them in other parts of the shelters. That cre- ates problems for those in the shelters and for youth." Once the board is formed, incorporated and the bylaws are set, they'll begin putting together a business plan for a shelter and housing. But what makes the plan unique is the goal to contract already existing social service groups to provide help with things like counsel- ling and employment. "Various organizations are already, to a certain extent, competing against each other," Mr. Robinson said, adding bringing them under one um- brella would avoid duplication and centralize services to help youth. "We look at ourselves as a real model for community col- laboration. "We want to work with local municipalities, the business community and all communi- ty stakeholders to address the needs of homeless and at-risk youth." For more information, contact Mr. Robinson at jamierobinson@rogers.com. Group to form Durham youth shelter The Bay is offering free flu vaccines DURHAM — The Hud- son’s Bay Company is work- ing with Ontario’s Ministry of Health this flu season. HBC is offering free flu shot clinics at select stores across the province this month. “Every day millions of Canadians visit an HBC store in their local com- munity. We’re pleased to offer Ontarians an easy way to protect their families against the flu this season,” said George Heller, presi- dent and chief executive officer of HBC, in a press release. “Our hope is that more people will take ad- vantage of the clinics if they are conveniently located in their community.” Millions of Canadians become ill during the influ- enza infection period from November to April. The majority of those infected will most likely experience symptoms of a serious cold, but for some it becomes much worse and can even lead to death. Among the local flu clin- ics are the following: • Home Outfitters, in Pickering, 1300 Kingston Rd. on Nov. 26 • The Bay in the Pickering To wn Centre, 1355 Kings- ton Rd. on Nov. 29 • Zellers in the Pickering To wn Centre, 1355 Kings- ton Rd. on Nov. 22 For more information on Ontario’s new universal flu campaign, call 1-866-FLU- N-YOU. awarded the medal for valour during the Second World War. He passed away in 1974 and his widow failed to declare its fate before she passed away in 2001. Now her estate has been offered $319,000 by a col- lector in England for the medal. The family has agreed to sell it to the 1st Canadian Parachute Bat- talion Association if it can raise $275,000 by the end of the year. Pickering resident Jan de Vries, president of the associa- tion, served with Mr. Topham dur- ing the war. So far he and the association have raised $75,000. Coun. McLean also challenged other munici- palities to donate money. “It’s an important mes- sage to send out, that we the City of Pickering take the lead and chal- lenge other mu- nicipalities,” he said. Treasurer Gil Paterson said there is no money in the 2004 bud- get for general al- location for spe- cial grants such as this. In a recorded vote everyone voted in favour of the $1,000 donation except Ward 1 City Councillor Kevin Ashe.

EDITORIAL LETTER TO THE EDITOR Slow, measured approach the way to build Pickering airport When it comes to all the talk of an airport for north Pickering, it’s important that we don’t get too far ahead of ourselves. After all, the grand plans unveiled by the Greater Toronto Airports Authority this week are just that — plans. Nothing’s carved in stone, planes won’t begin taking off or touching down any time soon. But there’s no denying the real possibility of the federal gov- ernment eventually giving final approval, and the unveiling this week certainly provided more reason to believe that’s the way we’re headed. Should that happen, the GTAA is propos- ing to start small here on the land the federal government has owned since 1972 in Pickering and get bigger. From general aviation traffic at opening in 2012, to 11.9 million passengers in 2032 when Pearson International Airport reaches its capac- ity, the facility will forever change the face of north Pickering, and Durham Region as a whole for that matter. To be sure, a regional airport would bring untold economic and related benefits to our region. More companies would lo- cate and invest here, jobs will be created, the spin-off business would be phenomenal, and eastern Greater Toronto Area resi- dents would have an air travel option much closer to home. Ye t, just like there were 32 years ago when an international facility was first proposed for the site, opponents of an airport on the federal lands are still many. They say capacity is nowhere near its limit at Pearson, nor at other airports across the Greater Toronto Area. They argue it isn’t needed now, nor for the foreseeable future. Truth be told, no one knows for sure exactly how fast our airports will get to capacity, but we do know for sure that we’re growing by leaps and bounds and the need will be very real before we know it. Airports don’t spring up overnight, they take years and years of planning. Ta king the necessary steps now to be ready when the need arises is much more prudent than trying to make up for lost time down the road. New generation proves they haven’t fo rgotten our war heroes To the editor: On Nov. 11 I got a call from my granddaughter to ask me to go to her school, Fairport Beach, for a service. I was planning to go to the service at City hall, but I decided to put on my veteran’s blazer and go to the school. I am glad I did, it was just great. I had tears in my eyes, all the children (each class) made wreaths, the children danced for peace, the music teacher played the Last Post, the chil- dren carried the wreaths to the stage and all the children bowed their heads for two minutes of silence. So much has been said about people forgetting the vets, but not at this school. I will always remember this day. I was introduced as a vet, the children clapped. Thanks to the principal and vice-principal and the staff of teachers, who all did so well to make this day a real day of remembrance, and of course all the children. God bless all of you — live long.

Durham students learning that the Sky’s the limit A my Sky was the headliner at a concert in Ajax last Friday, but local students deservedly shared the spotlight. The brainchild of teacher and mu- sician Devon ‘Artemis’ Chartier, the School Alliance of Student Songwrit- ers (SASS) program started in Durham public schools two years ago. Now, 50 schools have students writing and per- forming their own songs. Professional musicians such as SASS co-founder Dale Russell, the former Guess Who guitarist, help students craft a song and give them other tips, and teachers are enthusiastic SASS supporters. The students took to the J. Clarke Richardson Collegiate stage before Ms. Sky’s set. They sang, strummed and sometimes poured their guts out in song. Quite frankly, the quality of the musicians surprised me. There were some talented singers and capable mu- sicians on the stage. “You’re getting a look at just the very surface of the program,” Mr. Russell told the audience, noting there are more than 1,000 participating students. What strikes you about the program is the environment, how welcoming and nurturing it is for the young people, and this is crucial. Remember what it was like in school? Those feelings of awkwardness and the like? At SASS, the students feel comfortable, and this al- lows them to take risks, to overcome shyness and produce their best results. Also important is the guidance they receive from Artemis, Dale and others. It’s r efreshing to see something such as SASS take root in Durham — with plans to expand provincewide. Let’s face it, students have more on their plates now. School is more difficult. The buzz words used to describe the higher expectations of the new curriculum and the demand of the condensed high school program are “more challenging” or “more rigourous,” but the bottom line is it’s hard. And by the time stu- dents leave elementary school, they are supposed to have thought about where they’re going after high school and what they want to do with their lives. Every- thing is supposed to lead somewhere else. A means to an end. SASS is different. It is done for the joy of music, the pleasure of working with others in a band or on a song. There are no prerequisites, no marks and no grades. It is an end unto itself. Look for SASS events later this school year (see www.sasscanada.com) and plan to attend one. You’ll be pleasantly surprised. Mike Ruta’s column appears every third Friday. E-mail mruta@durhamregion. com.

Before their term ended in the summer, Liam Mooney and Carolyn Ar- buckle, the Durham District School Board’s previous student trustees, suggested pupils be allowed to run for a second term. An ad hoc committee of trustees reviewed the board bylaw and recommended some amendments. Currently the board has two student trustees, but the committee proposes adding a third, and stipulating that students can only serve a sin- gle, one-year term. As well, a draft amendment on the Nov. 15 board agenda states that “every attempt shall be made to appoint a pupil rep- resentative from Ajax-Pick- ering, Oshawa-Whitby and Brock-Scugog-Uxbridge.” The proposed bylaw changes also set out the roles and responsibilities of stu- dent trustees. Trustees will discuss and possibly vote on the changes at the Jan. 17 board meeting. Students could be getting more representation Liam Mooney Board has worries about implications of making move By Mike Ruta Staff Writer DURHAM — A custodian will soon be in two Scugog schools all day long. More than 10 months after two school council chairwomen first appealed to the public school board, trustees on Monday night approved a full-time, day custodian at R.H. Cornish Public School. Previously, Cornish and Prince Albert public schools had shared a full-timer in what is known as a twinned assignment. Local parents Trish Pa- terson and Claire Marsh approached the Durham District School Board in January, arguing that with a combined 1,000 pupils, one full-timer wasn’t enough to maintain the schools, both from a cleanliness and a health and safety point of view. Scugog Trustee Steve Martin tried to get the as- signment untwinned and trustees finally agreed at an August budget meeting. However, when the budget was later approved, a 6-5 re- corded vote killed the plan. Whitby Trustee John Dolstra at a recent meet- ing suggested surplus funds for rural schools be used to provide the full-timers. Trustees split the motion in half Monday night, with the Scugog untwinning not tied to the extra money. Ms. Paterson via e-mail said the school community welcomed the news. “R.H. Cornish is very pleased with this decision,” she says. “As you know, we had thought in August that this was confirmed only to find out the decision was rescinded due to a lack of funding. Of course, we are perplexed as to where the funds came from. This de- cision will go a long way in increasing the safety and upkeep of our school, es- pecially in light of the ad- dition of two new portables this year. The timing right before the start of winter is excellent, although we are still not certain of the effec- tive date.” Ja ck Massie, the board’s facilities services superin- tendent, said full-timers at both schools would be in place “as soon as we can ar- range it. “It will require discus- sions with the union and posting of the positions and deployment of the people currently in the school.” Mr. Massie says it will cost around $24,000 per year for the schools to each have a day-time custodian. It took yet another re- corded vote to seal the deal, but this time the tally was 10-0, with one abstention, Oshawa Trustee Michael Barrett. Trustees, includ- ing Mr. Barrett, have argued against the move because they worried it would re- sult in more untwinning requests from other school communities. “There are other schools in the region that are going to be asking to be unt- winned,” he warned. Trustee Martin told board members Cornish has a current population of 767 students, with a full-time equivalent of 723. He said last year the school’s popu- lation and size made it one of the five largest elemen- tary schools in the board. “With 767 bodies tramp- ing in and out, it does cre- ate a health and safety concern,” Trustee Martin argued.

The current rules state that driv- ers are allowed to be on duty for 15 hours or behind the wheel for 13, before being required to rest for a minimum of eight hours. The fact that there is no time limit for completing shifts has prompted Transport Canada to review the rules and propose a “working window” in which shifts must be finished. “The government is concerned that drivers can spread their 13 hours of driving over 25 hours or even more,” explained Brian Or- rbine, Transport Canada’s Chief of Motor Carriers. “What is being proposed is a limit of either 16 or 18 hours, to complete the on-duty hours or the driving hours.” Mr. Orrbine stressed that, con- trary to recent media reports, drivers are not being expected to spend 16 or 18 hours behind the wheel. In addition to introducing a “working window,” Transport Canada is proposing that the daily minimum rest period be increased from eight hours, to 10 hours. While these changes would mandate more driver rest time, there is some concern that they would also affect flexibility. “We already have problems with drivers that get stranded places on a weekly basis, because they run out of hours,” says Shirley Dawson of Oshawa’s TTR Transport. “They get delayed and then they have to stop because they have to follow the regulations. They have to just sit there and wait until they can get going again.” TTR Transport makes deliveries throughout Canada and the Unit- ed States, with drivers working an average of 60 hours per week. Ms. Dawson says avoiding driver fa- tigue is important, but isn’t sure if stricter regulations are necessary. “Our drivers are their own boss when they’re out on the road, they know when they’re tired and need to stop,” she says. “We don’t worry about fatigue a lot because we know our drivers will be re- sponsible and do what they need to do.” Bob Gibson agrees. As Safety Supervisor at International Freight Systems Inc., another Oshawa- based company that does regu- lar cross-country trips, he says a “working window” is an unneces- sary complication. “Your body tells you what to do, not a piece of paper,” he says. The federal government is ex- pected to introduce a final draft of the proposed changes by January 1, 2005. durhamregion.com THE NEWS ADVERTISER, NOVEMBER 19, 2004 PAGE 9 A/P DRIVE IT LOVE IT Lease and finance offers are from Honda Canada Finance Inc., on approved credit. ††Based on a 2005 Civic Sedan DX, model ES1515PX – factory order may be required – (†Accord Sedan DX, model CM5615E) (◊2005 Accord Sedan EX-L,model CM5665JN) (¥2005 CR-V LX,model RD7755E).Lease for 60 (†/◊/¥48) months at $198 (†$268) (◊$318) (¥$298) per month plus applicable taxes,with 120,000 (†/◊/¥96,000) km allowance (12¢/km exceeding allowance). $0 down on approved credit from Honda Canada Finance Inc.$0 (†$4,429.00) (◊$5,012.00) (¥$4,912.00) down payment or equivalent trade acceptable to dealer.Initiation payment of $279.69,(†$5,453.54) (◊$6,181.49) (¥$6,043.49) includes down payment,first monthly payment,registration,security deposit of $0,freight and P.D.E.and taxes.PPSA is additional.Total freight and P.D.E.is $1,095.00 (†/◊$1,180.00 ) (¥$1,325.00).Total lease payment is $13,713.31 (†$19,938.40) (◊$23,368.85) (¥$22,149.85).

Meanwhile, the Munici- pality of Clarington is re- viewing its zoning bylaw to determine whether the site where the Caledon Propane Storage facility is located is appropriate for such a busi- ness. The incident, which oc- curred at the Port Darlington Road Caledon facility Nov. 9, remains under investigation by Durham Regional Police, the Ontario Fire Marshal’s Office and the Technical Standards and Safety Au- thority (TSSA), though the site has been turned over to its owner for clean-up, said Clarington Mayor John Mutton. The mayor toured the site on Friday. “Damage is huge,” he said. The cause of the blaze and subsequent blasts is ex- pected to be released within a month, he said. But, regardless of the cause, the Municipality is taking a look at whether the business is appropriately located, as well as at the set- back requirements for such storage facilities, says Mayor Mutton. Clarington plan- ning staff has been asked to prepare a zoning amend- ment that would eliminate bulk storage tanks and re- lated uses in areas zoned for general industrial uses, and look at the distance re- quirements for separation of such tanks from homes, businesses, highways and other populated areas. “The incident certainly brought to our attention the need for better setbacks and rezoning, even though Clar- ington’s is one of the bet- ter guidelines in the GTA,” he said. Even before last Tuesday’s fire, Clarington’s setbacks for such business- es are “extremely strict,” he said. Caledon has not yet made a decision on whether to re- build on the site, said John Mara, a spokesman for the company. “We are there legally and the Municipality has given us the right to be there,” said Mr. Mara Tuesday. “We abide by all the bylaws and codes. We’re licensed by the TSSA. As to whether we’re going to be there in the fu- ture, that has not been as- certained.” Even a change to the ex- isting bylaw doesn’t change that they are there legally, since they were given per- mission to be there under the old rules, said Mr. Mara. “I guess the next time someone wants to open a propane distribution cen- tre, they can apply whatever rules they want,” he said. Should the zoning change pass, that fact will be open to legal interpretation, says the mayor. “They could rebuild under legal non conform- ing under current zoning, however the TSSA requires a letter from the Munici- pality proving they comply with the zoning, which will be subject to legal interpre- tation,” says Mayor Mutton. The first of the blasts came at 7:43 p.m. Tues- day, Nov. 9. The blaze set off a chain reaction of ex- plosions, as the radiating heat ignited cylinder after cylinder at the storage fa- cility, Ontario Fire Marshal investigator Bill Hiscott told reporters at a press confer- ence last Wednesday. Homes one mile east and west of the facility were evacuated Tuesday night. The evacuation order, af- fecting 400 to 500 residents, was lifted by Wednesday af- ternoon. No one was injured in the blaze. — With files by Lesley Bovie Explosion damage estimated at $1.5 to $2.5 million durhamregion.com THE NEWS ADVERTISER, NOVEMBER 19, 2004 PAGE 11 A/P Leg press optional SAVE $200 SAVE $900 SAVE $200 www.fitnesssource.caSelection may vary by store.

By 2032, the GTAA anticipates the facility will have progressed to three runways, hangers and other facilities to service an expected 11.9 million people annually. early. “I don’t think an airport in that time frame is needed in Pickering,” he said, pointing out Hamilton’s airport is looking for business and Pearson still has a lot of capacity. Much of the plan was what Coun. Pickles was expecting. “The one surprise is the north- south runway is further north than we thought,” he said. “It’s much clos- er to Claremont than we thought.” The plan is to build the airport in phases, with two runways to be in place in 2012 and the third coming on in 2032. Mr. Shaw said although those are the dates given in the plan, they are subject to change based on demand. “We’re going to build what we need, when we need it and protect our options,” he said. “If you don’t protect for an airport you won’t have it.” The first phase of the airport is to be situated in the northwest cor- ner of the federal lands, with the third runway added south of the first phase, just north of Hwy 7. The airport would be paid for by the GTAA, not with public money, Mr. Shaw said. The federal government has owned the 7,530 hectares of land since it was expropriated in 1972 to build an international airport. Due to public opposition, that idea was shelved three years later. The cur- rent plan calls for a smaller, regional airport. Durham Region Chairman Roger Anderson would like to see the plan move faster but understands the process needs to be thorough and include the public. “It’s moving along in the right direction,” he said. “It is something the Region has supported for a long time.” Mayor Dave Ryan was glad to fi- nally see a plan. “I’m pleased that it is moving for- ward in the sense that we were in limbo for 32 years,” he said. However, that draft did not come with a business plan and the City has yet to see one. “They have not shared that with us to date,” Mayor Ryan said. Despite this he believes it would have a positive economic impact on both the City and the Region. “Logic will dictate that there would be economic benefits,” he said, adding it would attract busi- ness to Pickering and Durham. Mr. Anderson agreed. “The economic development that will come as a result of the airport will be beneficial to all of us,” he said. The next step in the process is a federal environmental assessment, which takes two or three years to complete. Mr. Shaw said it would include several more opportunities for public consultation. The federal government has final say on whether the airport is built. Pickles questions just how soon new airport will be needed ✦ Pickles from page 1 Community public meetings. Public workshops.

It is not needed. There will be a huge burden on the travelling public,” Mr. Almack said. “It’s not needed, it is a waste of money.” Mr. Almack is a member of the Green Door Alliance, the successor to the group People Over Planes, which formed in the 1970s to fight the international airport that was then proposed for the federal lands in Pickering. He has been involved with fight- ing an airport since 1972, when the federal government expropriated 7,530 hectares of land in Pickering and east Markham. Stephen Frederick, president of Vo ters Organized to Cancel the Air- port Lands (VOCAL), hasn’t been fighting quite as long as Mr. Almack, but is just as committed. “It’s a waste of taxpayers’ resourc- es, it’s a waste of land,” he said. “If we build Ontario’s Mirabel we displace the opportunity of build- ing something that could actually benefit our region.” Mr. Frederick doesn’t believe the GTAA has presented a case that demonstrates an immediate need for an airport. “This business plan doesn’t fly. Provide a business plan that out- lines the need and that it would be profitable,” said the Claremont resident. Wednesday’s announcement didn’t include a business case. “We don’t believe commercial service is needed until the late 2020s,” Mr. Frederick said. Under the GTAA’s plan, com- mercial service would start in 2022 with spillover from Pearson when it begins to reach its capacity of 50 million passengers (it is currently at 25 million). Even though the current proposal of a two runway regional airport in 2012 with a third runway being added in 2032 is much smaller than the original international idea, Mr. Almack and his fellow protestors still don’t want to see prime farm- land, which he called, “an absolute irreplaceable asset,” paved over. He wants to see the land put into private stewardship. “We want it privatized, sold to farms at agricultural prices in 100- acre blocks with conservation ease- ments on it so the farmland can be protected,” he said. The next step in the planning is an environmental assessment, which is to take two to three years. The GTAA is also holding several public meetings beginning in Cla- remont, Tuesday, Nov. 23. Other open houses are planned for the Goodwood Community Centre in Uxbridge on Thursday, Nov. 25; the Pickering Recreation Complex on Monday, Nov. 29; the Ajax Commu- nity Centre on Wednesday, Dec. 1; and Lviv Hall in Oshawa on Thurs- day, Dec. 2. The federal government has a final say on if and when an airport is built.

The Hudson’s Bay Co. (HBC) is run- ning its plush toy campaign for char- ity. Each plush toy purchased from Zellers, The Bay or Home Outfitters will ensure the proceeds go to the less- fortunate in the community in which the toy was bought. In addition, HBC is donating $500 in gift cards to Heri- zon House shelter for abused women in Ajax. “We’re pleased that this new chari- table program will not only help peo- ple to celebrate the holidays, it will keep giving to their local community in the form of a donation,” Tom Ste- venson, store manager at The Bay in the Pickering Town Centre, said in a release. Five different plush animals are on sale for $5.99: a moose, beaver, polar bear, teddy bear and dog. The charitable plush toys are on sale year-round, with other charac- ters added to help celebrate important occasions like birthdays, babies and weddings. The Hudson’s Bay Co., established in 1670, is Canada’s largest depart- ment store retailer and oldest corpo- ration. It has numerous retail chains, including more than 500 stores led by the Bay, Zellers and Home Outfitters chains. Watch for us Wednesday, Friday and Sunday for all your local news. DURHAM — Mountains of donated food and gifts and an army of vol- unteers are what make the Durham Children’s Aid Society’s Community Caring at Christmas venture a suc- cess each year, but they also pose a challenge when it comes to finding a home for the program. “We couldn’t help this many fami- lies without the incredible dedication of our staff and volunteers,” says Fund Development Officer Yvonne Wil- liams. “But, with this many of Santa’s helpers, and with the mountain of gifts, toys, boxes and food, we just don’t have the space to hold it all.” This is where the local business community can help. Organizers are looking for donated space to be used between Dec. 1 and mid January. Last year, thanks to a generous donation from CAS’s landlord at the Midtown Mall, Rio-Can, Santa’s help- ers were able to operate from a vacant store at the mall over the Christmas season. With no mall vacancies available this year, organizers are hoping an- other business will step in and con- tinue the tradition. The site needs to fit about 12 of Santa’s helpers, and a lot of gifts, with room to receive, sort and store more than 500 hampers. Space for parking to allow for dona- tion drop off and pick up, would also be helpful. Last year, 533 families, including 1,003 children and 58 youth living independently celebrated Christmas with gifts, food and warm clothes, thanks to Community Caring at Christmas.

NEWS ADVERTISER Santa’s helpers in need of space for Children’s Aid Society gift campaign Safety program encourages youth to wear helmets when riding By David Blumenfeld Staff Writer DURHAM — Appearing dazed, Jennifer Beckstead looked like she had been hit over the head when she found out she had won a brand new bike courtesy of the Headsfirst program, a bicycle safety campaign run jointly between Dur- ham Regional Police and the Durham Region health department. Then again, she wouldn’t have felt a thing — the 12- year-old always wears a bicycle helmet when out riding. That’s why Jennifer was entered in the contest. Nevertheless, she was still shocked to learn her name was randomly picked from 327 ballots to win the grand prize. Headsfirst is an annual safety program that pro- vides enforcement, educa- tion and rewards for young people seen wearing a bi- cycle helmet and using safe cycling practices during the summer months. Those under the age of 18 caught riding with a helmet are stopped by police, given a congratulatory certificate and coupons redeemable for free treats like ice cream, and also get their name en- tered in a draw for the new bicycle. Bicyclists found not wear- ing a helmet were given a choice: pay an $80 fine or attend a two-hour educa- tion session about the im- portance of wearing a hel- met. On Nov. 9, Jennifer went to Tim Hortons, one of the contest’s sponsors, under the guise that her dad want- ed an after-supper treat. Minutes later, she was being congratulated by shop staff and Durham police for win- ning a brand new mountain bike, helmet and gloves. Al- though somewhat speech- less, Jennifer was still able to manage a few words. “It was very nice of them — I’m glad I wore my helmet that day,” said Jennifer, who attends St. Bernard Catholic School in Whitby. “I always do, and I know I don’t want to get hurt if I fall. I think everyone should no matter what age. You could fall and (hurt) your head or have a serious injury.” Jennifer’s father, Mike, called the Headsfirst pro- gram fantastic. He said he’s seen a lot of kids not wear- ing helmets and is glad his daughter puts safety — as well as her head — first when biking. “If she ever fell, we try to make sure her helmet’s secure as well. That’s a big issue also. We just like that she’s out wearing it, that’s all,” he said. Constable Gord Flem- ing, who presented Jennifer with her prize on behalf of Durham Regional Police, could hardly contain his ex- citement before she showed up at the Brooklin Tim Hor- tons to collect her prize. “It’s probably one of my favourites, only because you look at the injuries with bike helmets or lack thereof when wearing one... some injuries can happen; pretty scary, “ Const. Fleming said of the program, now in its fourth year. Every year, more than 50,000 young Canadians are seriously injured while biking, Durham police said. durhamregion.com THE NEWS ADVERTISER, NOVEMBER 19, 2004 PAGE 15 A/P 2111 McCowan Road, Scarborough M1S 3Y6 Use Rear Entrance of Main Building GARMENT MANUFACTURER’S WAREHOUSE Savings 90% On outer wear jackets, golf shirts, fleece tops and other casual wear.

An officer on patrol first spotted the Nissan Pathfinder in Oshawa at about 11 p.m. Nov. 12, Sergeant Paul Malik said. Suspecting the car might be sto- len, the officer followed the SUV to Whitby, where he was able to con- firm his suspicions by checking the licence plate number. He followed the Pathfinder into the westbound lanes of Hwy. 401. Ahead, more Durham cops were converging on the freeway. The stolen vehicle was boxed in by a rolling road block and forced to stop, Sgt. Malik said. Officers, guns drawn, ordered the occupants out of the vehicle. Cops arrested two teens, who can- not be named under the Youth Jus- tice Act, and seized a large amount of marijuana, Sgt. Malik said. A 16-year-old Ajax youth is charged with possession of property obtained by crime, flight from police, obstructing police, breach of proba- tion, breach of undertaking and driv- ing without a licence. A second Ajax boy, also 16, is charged with possession of property obtained by crime, breach of proba- tion and possession of a controlled substance for the purpose of traffick- ing. durhamregion.com THE NEWS ADVERTISER, NOVEMBER 19, 2004 PAGE 17 A/P our gift to you - SUNDAY, NOVEMBER 21ST save an extra on sale & clearance- priced merchandise10%**Excludes Cosmetics & Fragrances, Electronics, Major Appliances, Furniture, Mattresses, just-reduced items and licensed departments. *Other exclusions may apply.

By Danielle Milley Staff Writer DURHAM — Ajax and Pickering Scouts are going to be delivering joy to some less-fortunate children this holiday season. Scouts from the Owasco District (Ajax and Picker- ing) are helping to deliver gift boxes as part of the Santa Claus Fund, which the News Advertiser has joined this year, partnering with the Toronto Star, Mis- sissauga News and Bramp- ton Guardian. The fund is in its 99th year. John Earley, a group com- missioner with the local Scouts, helped with gift boxes in Toronto last year and when he found out the program was being extend- ed to Ajax and Pickering, he got the Scouts involved. “I volunteered when I found out what (The Star) was doing. I thought it was a worthwhile act,” he said. “It doesn’t take that much time and you feel you are doing something to help people.” Close to 80 volunteers — including Scouts, their parents, leaders and News Advertiser employees — are going to deliver the boxes, which contain a sweater, socks, mittens, a hat, a book, a toy and candy. Mr. Earley described the pack- age as “size 20 shoeboxes.” It is estimated 1,000 gift boxes will be delivered to kids in the two communi- ties and Mr. Earley said the Scouts can handle it. Spe- cial service agencies in the communities have submit- ted children’s names. “This was a wonderful gesture on the part of The To ronto Star,” Mr. Earley said of the program. “I just hope the News Advertiser gets the financial support from the people and busi- nesses of this area.” The Scouts and Ventur- ers, who are also helping, have been told about the program. “They thought it was wonderful,” Mr. Earley said. “They asked if they’d get (a box).” They don’t, but they do get a crest for their partici- pation. “There are a lot of needy families in the Ajax and Pickering area,” Mr. Earley said. “The Scout movement is fully aware that there is a need for compassion and support of families in this area who, for whatever reason, have fallen on hard times.” The goal this year is to raise $1.3 million and every dollar donated is used to buy the items contained in the colourful gift boxes. All donors receive an in- come tax receipt after the campaign ends in January 2005. Donor contributions will be published in the newspaper during the cam- paign, until mid-January.

The Rotary Club of Osha- wa hopes to top the $1-mil- lion mark in funds raised for community projects over the 23-year history of the Rotary TV Auction. The program broadcasts on Rogers Television Fri- day, Nov. 26, from 7 p.m. to midnight and Saturday, Nov. 27, from 9 a.m. to 7 p.m. The auction airs on Cable 10 in Ajax, Whitby, Oshawa and Clarington, and on Cable 63 in Pickering. Approximately $80,000 worth of merchandise will be up on the auction block, including a Via Rail pass for two along the Windsor- Quebec corridor, valued at $1,500 and Toronto Raptor tickets. “We’re very proud of the fact that, with the proceeds from this year’s TV auction, the Rotary Club will have raised over $1 million over the 23 years the auction has been running,” said auction chairman John Walker. More than 350 items for the 2004 auction have been donated by local business- es.

In 1968 they began purchasing beautiful old oak and walnut patterns. They repaired, painted and/or refinished these industrial antiques and sold them to collectors. The brothers reused pieces that could not be repaired and carved them into images, mostly Canadian wildlife. In a chance encounter, the brothers met the owner of an aluminum foundry, who took some of the wooden animal carvings and made aluminum replicas. These rough, primitive pieces gave the brothers the direction for production they needed, because they couldn’t keep up with the demands of the hand carved wooden animals. Gord became very knowledgeable with regards to the foundry process and looked after production, while Carl sculpted the originals from which the castings were made. Af ter a few years, Carl left the business and that’s when Gord took over the creative side as well. He continued to create new and exciting images that soon became part of the Hoselton trademark. “There’s a little animal in each piece of marble just waiting to get out,” believes Gord. In 1992, the company built six dove- grey board-and-batten buildings on an eight-acre wooden lot in Colborne. These six structures became the homes of the creative production and business elements of Hoselton Sculptures. Designs from angels, sailboats, golfers to wildlife, tableware and seasonal motifs are just a few examples of what makes up the production of these precious sculptures. Over the years Gord, Carol and Jan welcomed other artists to the Hoselton Team. These artists adapted Gord’s technique and philosophy and they continue to follow in his tradition. Today, Jan Hoselton leads the company’s sales and marketing division and her sister, Carol Hoselton Town, manages the plant and production. The third generation of the family is also in the business learning the foundry’s unique techniques. The Hoselton family, together with their dedicated, experienced staff, is the team that carries on the tradition of quality Canadian hand-made and signed aluminum sculptures that Carl and Gord founded. A family tradition getting better with age Over the years Gord, Carol and Jan welcomed other artists to the Hoselton Team. These artists adapted Gord’s technique and philosophy; they continue to follow in his tradition. 905-683-0079 Pickering Home & Leisure Centre 1755 Pickering Parkway, Unit 9 TheTile Shoppe Ceramic • Hardwood Stone • Heated Floors Granite Counter Tops Complete Bathroom Renovations OPEN 7 DAYS A WEEK Largest Selection in Durham Free Quotes • Free Design Concept Installation Specialists FLOORING AND BATHROOM RENOVATIONS 1 MAID SERVICES MORTGAGE SPECIALISTS REAL ESTATE Quality One Ltd.

The first step, find a picture or photograph that recalls a happy trip or vacation. S elect the dominant colour in that picture as the paint colour for your room. For example, a trip to a resort or cottage can be recollected by using the blue of the sky as your dominant colour, with the green of the surrounding trees as the accent colour. With colours it’s all about adjusting perceptions. A paint colour can actually change our perception of the size and shape of a room itself. The right colour in the right place for example, can make a room appear larger and brighter, or more intimate and less empty. It can even make a long and narrow room look more square- shaped, or vice-versa. Here’s a general guideline offered by the paint experts: To make a room appear: Larger:use a pale colour to create the impression that the walls are further away. Brighter:use a pale shade, like a light yellow. Smaller:use a dark colour to make the room more intimate and less empty. Reds and earth shades for example, give the impression that walls are closer to us. To c hange the perception of room shape: Long and narrow to square:paint the shorter walls in a darker colour than the longer ones. Square to Long and Narrow: paint the two facing walls you wish to look longer in a lighter colour. To choose a finish: Flat paints add richness and depth to the colour of your room. “Today, even high-traffic household areas like hallways,playrooms, bathrooms and kitchens can hold up easily with a lower gloss, but washable paint.” How to customize your decor with colour TO ADVERTISE IN HOME SWEET HOME CALL CHRISTIAN-ANN AT 905-683-5110 TO ADVERTISE IN HOME SWEET HOME CALL CHRISTIAN-ANN AT 905-683-5110 TO ADVERTISE IN HOME SWEET HOME CALL CHRISTIAN-ANN AT 905-683-5110 Pickering Home & Leisure Centre 401 & Brock Road, Pickering 905-619-4554 Hwy #401 Pickering Home & Leisure Centre Amish Furniture Brock RoadCanadian Tire N Monday - Friday 10-8 Saturday 10-6, Sunday 11-5Bring the kids, Bring the kids, they’ll enjoy our they’ll enjoy our playroom while you shop!playroom while you shop!

For Louise Farr and David Chambers, it was about giv- ing it. Ms. Farr, the Univer- sity of Ontario Institute of Te chnology’s Advancement Office Associate Campaign Director, married David Chambers on the school’s campus this summer. Rath- er than receiving the usual wedding gifts from their 350 guests, Farr and Chambers had an idea that would not only bring more attention to Ontario’s newest university, but would also benefit future students of the school. They created the Farr-Chambers Endowed Student Bursary, and respectfully requested that their guests honour the union of their families by contributing to the endow- ment fund, in lieu of giving a gift. “The idea was created early on in planning the wedding. Because David and I come from a background in fundraising, it just seemed natural,” said Ms. Farr. “We both understood the need of the University, and marrying later in life, we already had the idea that while we ap- preciate getting new things, you don’t get many oppor- tunities to do something this meaningful.” The two met in 1997, while Ms. Farr served as the Ajax- Pickering vice-chairman of the school’s Creating Futures Campaign. Mr. Chambers is president of The Goldie Company, a consulting firm employed for the campaign, which raised support for inte- grated college and university programs in Durham as well as funding for bursaries for Durham College students. Ms. Farr, who has also de- voted time to Durham Col- lege as a member of the Board of Governors, decided it was time to focus her attention on the new university. The Fa rr-Chambers Endowed Student Bursary was created to assist students who dem- onstrate a financial need, so that they may benefit from the education of UOIT. To promote the campus as a place available for large gatherings and conferences, as well as to promote the new residence, the couple held the wedding ceremony and reception on campus, and had guests from out of prov- ince stay in the residence. The biggest reward for Ms. Fa rr and Mr. Chambers is knowing this will help stu- dents who would not nor- mally have the opportunity to expand their education and enjoy all that UOIT has to offer. “We have received so many compliments. People really liked the idea of help- ing out and donating money to students because they rec- ognize the university,” said Ms. Farr. “They recognize the need of students today.” This is also a gift that will not only keep giving, but will keep growing. The govern- ment-run Ontario Student Opportunity Trust Fund (OSOTF) will match each dollar raised through the bursary. The OSOTF was created in 1996 as a financial aid pro- gram for students. In 2003, a second phase was an- nounced, that would allow all donations made by cor- porations and individuals for endowed student aid to be matched dollar-for-dollar. According to Krista Craig, campaign coordinator in the Advancement Office at UOIT, $21,465 has been raised by donations to date. That brings the final total, in- cluding the match from the OSOTF, to $42,930 for the bursary. Fa rr expressed enormous gratitude for the generosity of their friends who have do- nated, and added that oth- ers should consider creating something like this to hon- our someone in their family, a special event or someone who is special to them, be- cause it is the gift that keeps on giving. Anyone wishing to con- tribute to the Farr-Chambers Endowed Student Bursary may contact Krista Craig in the Advancement Office at UOIT at 905-721-3111 ext. 2462, or send to the Farr- Chambers Endowed Student Bursary, Attention: Advance- ment Office, University of Ontario Institute of Technol- ogy.

(Applicant) has filed an application dated November 4, 2004 with the Ontario Energy Board for a Final Order pre-approving its Conservation and Demand Management Plan (CDM Plan). The Board assigned File No. RP-2004- 0203/EB-2004-0484 to this application. On May 31, 2004, the Minister of Energy granted approval to all distributors in Ontario to apply to the Board for an increase in their 2005 rates by the third installment of their incremental market adjusted revenue requirement (MARR). This approval is conditional on a commitment to reinvest an equivalent amount in CDM initiatives. The elements of the proposed CDM Plan are as follows: co-branded mass market program, SMART meter pilot, SMART meter program, distribution loss reduction, load displacement, and stand-by generators programs. The total budget for the CDM plan is approximately $3.5 million which is consistent with the amount of the third installment of its MARR. The Board intends to proceed with the application by way of oral hearing which is scheduled to be held on December 7, 2004 commencing at 9:30 am at the Board’s Offices in Toronto. This application will be heard at the same time as the applications by Hamilton Hydro Inc., Hydro Ottawa Limited, PowerStream Inc., Toronto Hydro-Electric System Ltd., and Enersource Hydro Mississauga as all of these proceedings raise similar questions of fact and policy.

Moreover, the bylaw that enables school boards to pay for new schools would also have to be revisited if the new community becomes a reality, say officials from the Durham Catholic and Dur- ham District school boards. Whether the planned community has 46,000 or 58,000 residents, it would mean 2,664 to 2,836 more Catholic students, according to a report by Gerry O’Neill, the board’s controller of planning and admissions, He says Durham Catholic and public board officials met with Seaton representa- tives to discuss school sites recently. “We indicated to the Seaton development team at that time that we would need six elementary schools and one secondary school (in Seaton),” he told trustees at Monday’s board meeting. In his report Mr. O’Neill says a follow-up meet- ing will take place “to try and pin down some loca- tions for schools.” Board staff also plan to meet with Pickering officials “to explore pos- sible sites for a secondary school in the Brock Road area just south of Taunton Road.” One more high school, however, won’t be enough in Pickering, as the city will need “another secondary site to provide relief to Notre Dame Catholic Secondary School” in Ajax. Board business superin- tendent David Visser says it’s working on a capital expen- diture forecast, but if Seaton comes online it would rep- resent “almost a separate planning process in itself. “If it comes to fruition, we would not only have to look at our capital expenditure forecast but our education devel- opment charges (EDC) bylaw,” he said. The EDC is ap- plied to housing developers and the funds are used by school boards to purchase new school sites. In June the boards passed a new EDC bylaw, substantially lowering the price per housing unit. At the Catholic board, it dropped from $723 to $337 per dwelling unit, while the public board’s charge is $958, down from $1,361. The bylaw is in effect until Aug. 31, 2009. Durham District School Board’s facilities services superintendant Jack Massie says Seaton would mean a separate board accommo- dation plan and a review of the EDC bylaw. The cur- rent EDC would not provide enough money to help build new schools in Seaton, he says, and the bylaw contains a proviso in case Seaton comes online. “It is a large development, so one way or another we’re going to need a ton of new schools to support it,” says Mr. Massie, estimating the board would require pos- sibly two high schools and as many as 10 elementary schools. He stressed the actual number of homes and hous- ing types in Seaton is un- known. Equally important from a school planning per- spective is the kind of home- owner the community aims to attract. If Seaton is mar- keted to aging baby boom- ers moving out of Toronto, for example, Mr. Massie says it would not yield many stu- dents. Pickering Trustee Jim McCafferty says the Seaton development style incorpo- rates a lot of green space in between neighbourhoods, meaning big walking dis- tances for students. Seaton would also cause a lot of boundary re-drawing in the city, he said. “We have six feeder schools currently feeding St. Mary Catholic Second- ary School and Notre Dame Catholic Secondary School,” Trustee McCafferty says. “If you’re going to add another six schools, you’re going to have to look at the boundar- ies.” Trustee McCafferty has long called for another Cath- olic high school in Pickering, noting St. Mary and Notre Dame, where some Picker- ing students go to school, are overcrowded. “I’d like to see our stu- dents from Pickering come back from Notre Dame and service them in Pickering,” he says. Seaton would create a school-building boom Group of four comes second at baking competition PICKERING — Four Pine Ridge Secondary School students take the cake when it comes to baking. Jessica De Silva, Danielle Guilbault, Leanne Park and Aaron Eccles earned second prize in the fourth annual Knorr Ready, Set, Cook and Win competition. Compet- ing against nine other teams in the baking category, the Pine Ridge students each earned a $650 scholarship to the George Brown Chef School. The competition had 80 students from 15 high schools across southern Ontario cooking off on ev- erything from appetizers and entrees to breads and desserts in either baking or culinary categories. In both categories 10 teams of four students battled for a first-prize bursary of $1,500, $650 for second, and $350 for third.

Twenty-nine swimmers from the Pickering club qualified and com- peted at the meet, hosted by the Barrie Trojan Swim Club at the new East Bayfield Recreation Centre. The competition drew 327 swimmers from 14 clubs from as far away as North Bay, Nepean and Kingston. All told, Pickering swimmers es- tablished 11 new club records. But, the day belonged to Adam Gomba who swam to five new standards. He set a new mark in the boys’ 13- 14 age group 200-metre freestyle in 2:03.28, the 400m free in 4:24.63, the 800m free in 9:19.06, the 100m backstroke in 1:07.46, and in the 200m individual medley in 2:22.11. Other record-breakers were: Re- becca Acheson (girls’ 13-14) in the 100m butterfly in 1:08.79 and the 200m fly in 2:34.11; Alysha Lyn- den (girls’ 11-12) in the 50m free in 29:66; Danielle Gomba (girls’ 11-12) in the 100m fly in 1:10.61; Kaleigh Heard (girls’ 13-14) 200m IM in 2:33.35, and Laura Nicholls (women’s 17-and-over) in the 100m back in 1:05.54.

And after the darkest night, the light of dawn appears once more. After the greyest storm, a rainbow paints the sky with colour. And after the strongest waves, fragile seashells line the shore. After the deepest loss, God gives the healing gift of memories to comfort and bring peace of mind when those we love are gone. And as long as we remember we will never feel alone.

Sat. 9 A.M. - 6 P.M. Sun. 12 - 6 P.M. A weekend in the country, a week at a spa or a month travelling around Europe -- wherever your family is headed, the univer- sal goal of a vacation is to escape the stresses of work, home and everyday life. Yet the mere thought of planning a vacation and making sure it includes activities that the whole family can enjoy can be just as stress- ful as what you’re trying to escape. CHOOSE FAMILY-ORIENTED DESTINATIONS A family vacation needs to appeal to both kids and adults. The best way to keep your family happy is to include them in the plan- ning. Do some research on vacation spots that are geared towards families, and involve your kids in the decision-making process. Give them some location choices and solicit their opinions. Once a spot is chosen, ask them what activities interest them so they’re even more excited about the trip. Next, plan ahead. Reserve hotels, cars and any must-see attractions in advance. You don’t have to plan the trip down to the minute, but a little bit of scheduling will minimize hassles when you reach your des- tination. But, book with caution. Schedule a bal- ance of child- and adult-geared activities. Leave room for play time for younger chil- dren -- they have less tolerance for new sur- roundings and routines. DON’T OVERPACK Carrying luggage around is stressful enough so the last thing you want to do is overpack, making suitcases heavier than they have to be. The best way to avoid that is to avoid stuffi ng everything into a bag the night before your trip. About a week prior, write down everything you want to take for you and your family. Try to revolve ward- robes around one color like black or blue. That way, pieces can be mixed and matched to create several outfi ts from a few key piec- es. Also, don’t forget to pack extra plastic bags for laundry and wet clothing. EVERY THING IN MODERATION No one wants to ruin their vacation, so eat and sun in moderation. Even though you may make every effort to plan a fl awless trip, sometimes things can go wrong that are beyond your control -- your plane may be delayed, your hotel may be disappoint- ing, or the weather may turn cold or rainy. W hatever the case may be, just remember that you only get a limited number of vaca- tion days a year, so try to make the most of them. Sit back, relax and enjoy!

Line 1-416-798-7259 ERIN ROSE GLADWELL January 30, 1989 - November 19, 2000 After the coldest winter, the warmth of springtime beckons. And after the darkest night, the light of dawn appears once more. After the greyest storm, a rainbow paints the sky with colour. And after the strongest waves, fragile seashells line the shore. After the deepest loss, God gives the healing gift of memories to comfort and bring peace of mind when those we love are gone. And as long as we remember we will never feel alone. For deep within our hearts we know Erin still lives on. Forever remembered, forever in our hearts, forever our Angel. † ~sadly missed and deeply loved by family and friends. 1991 CHEV ASTRO VAN V6 auto- matic, 8 passenger, pw,pdl,tilt, cruise, A/C, good condition, 173,000-kms. new exhaust system & brakes, certified/e-tested. $2499-obo.
