getting support from
all federal parties
By Danielle Milley
Staff Writer
PICKERING — The bill to
lower the voting age is gaining
momentum.
Ajax-Pickering MP Mark Hol-
land’s private member’s bill to
lower the federal voting age from
18 to 16 went to debate for the
first time Tuesday.
It was already being champi-
oned by a member from each
party and now has been jointly
seconded by 20 MPs represent-
ing all parties — the maximum
allowed under House of Com-
mons rules.
“It went exceptionally well,”
Mr. Holland said of the debate.
“We have officially 20 second-
ers, which is somewhat unprec-
edented, apparently that doesn’t
happen very often.”
By mid-afternoon Jan. 31, the
number of MPs wishing to sec-
ond the bill had exceeded the
limit and some requests were
refused by House of Commons
administration.
Mr. Holland introduced the
bill in November. He says young
people can drive at 16, join the
armed forces at 17, and vote for
the leader of a political party at
14, so they should be allowed to
vote in a federal election.
Those championing the bill
also hope that since youth might
be voting for the first time when
they are still in high school
(where elections and current
events tend to be discussed),
they will be more likely to vote
and carry those positive voting
habits throughout life, thereby
increasing voter turnout.
Mr. Holland still has some

Decision described as
‘quite a home run’
By Keith Gilligan
Staff Writer
DURHAM — A man who has
been trying to have Dan Mc-
Te ague removed from the House
of Commons over incorrect bio-
graphical information has in
turn been declared “vexatious”
and can no longer use the courts
against the MP.
In a 26-page ruling released
Tuesday, Superior Court of Jus-
tice Judge Lee Ferrier stated
Chaitanya Kalevar “has persis-
tently and without reasonable
grounds instituted vexatious
proceedings in this court and
conducted proceedings in this
court in a vexatious manner.”
The judge also stated Mr. Ka-
levar can’t institute any further
court proceedings “in any court”
without prior judicial approval
and “all proceedings previously
instituted by Chaitanya K. Ka-
levar are stayed and not to be
continued.”
That includes a Small Claims
Court case that was to be heard
today, Feb. 4, in Whitby.
“That is, in legal terms, quite a
ruling,” said Glenn Bradbury, Mr.
McTe ague’s executive assistant.
“If you run it by any lawyer, they
will say pretty much the same
thing. Most would sum it up as
McTeague accuser ‘vexatious,’ case dismissed
✦ See Pickering, Page 2✦ See Momentum, Page 5
saying it’s quite a home run in so
far as our case was entirely accept-
ed by the Superior Court Justice.”
Mr. McTeague, through his law-
yer John Cannings, went to court
on Jan. 20 to have Mr. Kalevar de-
clared a vexatious litigant.
“He’s lost on all counts, every
single count,” Mr. Bradbury stated.
“The issue of him being deemed
a vexatious litigant, he’s lost. He’s
been deemed that. He has to go
and get prior approval from a Su-
perior Court Justice before he can
proceed.”
Mr. Kalevar has been seeking
to have Mr. McTeague removed,
claiming the MP won the Liberal
Party nomination for the then On-
tario Riding in 1992 by stating he
had a master’s degree of econom-
ics. When it came to light in 1997
that Mr. McTeague didn’t have a
master’s, he said it was a mistake
and apologized.
Mr. Kalevar said he would have
won the nomination without Mr.
McTeague’s claim.
“It’s another headache they have
created for me,” he said. “I will dig
out of this hole. I will appeal it. It’s
the only thing I can do.”
He added, “I don’t see any rea-
son the case against McTeague
shouldn’t go ahead. They’re trying
to bury me. Now the case against
McTe ague won’t proceed.
“I’m flabbergasted. What they’ve
done is put all the small fish in
front of the big fish, to hide the big
fish,” he said.
In his ruling, Justice Ferrier
stated Mr. Kalevar hasn’t “demon-
strated that the misstatement has
given rise to any form of cause of
action nor has he demonstrated
any damages arising from the mis-
statement.
“There is no legal remedy which
can give Kalevar the relief that he
seeks which is ultimately to re-
move McTeague from Parliament
because of the misstatement.”
The judge also ruled Mr. Mc-
Te ague can seek legal costs against
Mr. Kalevar.
Mr. Bradbury stated, “We are
definitely going forward with cost
application in the case before Jus-
tice Ferrier. We have instructed
our lawyer to put forward an ap-
plication for costs.”
He wouldn’t say how much they
would seek, but added it could be
“s everal thousand dollars. We may
get it, we may not. It depends on
the court.”

AJAX — Criminal charges were
laid against a man after his girl-
friend called police to say she was
being held against her will in a car
that was travelling on Hwy. 401.
Durham Regional Police officers
responded to a ramp at Salem Road
to find the woman standing there
shortly after her call around mid-
night last Sunday. The man drove
up in his car a short time later, po-
lice said.
Police say the couple — he’s an
Oakville resident, while she’s from
Mississauga — became embroiled
in an argument after the man was
late picking her up. As the disagree-
ment escalated, the woman called
police and said she was being held
in the car.
The 21-year-old faces a charge of
forcible confinement. He was also
charged with mischief for allegedly
throwing the woman’s cellphone
out the window of his car.
Highway call in Ajax

DURHAM — The Province is shutting
down the local health council, 30 years after
it became the local voice in health-care plan-
ning.
The Durham Haliburton Kawartha and
Pine Ridge District Health Council (DHKPR
DHC), based out of Peterborough, is one of 16
local organizations to be shut down March 31.
The DHCs provide local health-care planning
and advice to the Province.
The move comes as the Province moves to-
ward a more “patient-focused, results-driven,
integrated and sustainable” health-care sys-
tem, the Ministry of Health and Long-Term
Care website said.
The DHCs will be replaced with 14 Local
Health Integration Networks (LINs) across
Ontario, the Province says. Durham will be
part of a huge LIN called Central East, which
encompasses parts of Toronto, York Region,
Northumberland and Kawartha Lakes.
The closure of the local DHC will leave 12
staff members without jobs, but they are re-
ceiving severance packages, said Lynda Hes-
sey, executive director of the DHKPR DHC.
“Obviously there is job loss,” she said. “(But)
our staff have really good skills in terms of
health system planning
at the local level. I think
we’ll likely find posi-
tions elsewhere as they
become available.”
Ms. Hessey said the
council backs the LINs.
“The council is sup-
portive of the minister’s
goal of a more integrat-
ed system that is more
people-oriented,” she
said. “We certainly hope the LINs will build
on the work of the local health council.”
Ms. Hessey pointed to several data-packed
studies the council has done, including long-
term care, dialysis and soon-to-be-released
studies on acute care and service.
The DHCs have always served as an advi-
sory board, but have never had the power to
direct funding, said Dr. Robert Kyle, Durham
Region’s medical officer of health. The LINs
are also supposed to bridge that gap, as well
as dealing with mental health, long-term care
and hospitals.
The new networks are supposed to be up
and running by April 2005, the Ministry said.

Special to the News Advertiser
AJAX — Students at Alexander Graham Bell
Public School are quarterbacking an anti-smok-
ing movement.
In a recent presentation, Teens Tackling To-
bacco, select students in the Grade 7 and 8
classes demonstrated the hazardous effects of
smoking on, not only the individual, but the
surrounding elements as well.
“These presentations highlight the detrimen-
tal effects of smoking and the illnesses associ-
ated with this nasty habit,“ said Richard Kolum-
bus, special education resource teacher at the
school. “Youths are very impressionable at this
point in their lives. If we can encourage at least
one kid to not smoke (through these demon-
strations) then we’ve done our job.”
Hoping the consequences of smoking will be
better conveyed through their peers, the school
has entrusted eight intermediate volunteer stu-
dents to deliver the message to their fellow
pupils, says Mr. Kolumbus. With an assortment
of activities, including smoke-infected pig lungs
and anti-smoking visual cues for the students
to inspect, the event surely fired home the mes-
sage that smoking can lead to death.
“This is a very valuable and important tradi-
tion that we must continue to uphold,” said
Claire Kerr, from the Durham Region health
department. “Many young people get hooked
(on smoking) at a young age. Through these
presentations we want to convey the message
that there are absolutely no positive effects to
smoking.”
All together, more than 250 students from the
public school examined their peer’s exhibits.
With interactive displays and a student-pro-
duced hazardous smoking video, the anti-smok-
ing message astounded some of the youths
attending.

smoking movement, visit www.tobaccofreekids.

work to do, but the bill has solid backing.
“I’d say we’re up to 100 members supporting
the bill,” he said.
The bill needs the support of 154 of Parlia-
ment’s 307 members.
The next step for the campaign is a cross-
Canada tour at the end of the month where
Mr. Holland, along with Conservative MP Be-
linda Stronach, Bloc Quebecois MP Stephane
Bergeron and NDP MP Nathan Cullen, is going
to talk to young people.
“The big push right now is going into schools
and universities to talk to as many youth as we
collectively can,” Mr. Holland said.
The youth wings of all the national parties are
also involved.
However, opposition to the proposal does
exist.
“There’s some [MPs] that are concerned [16-
year-olds] are not mature enough (to vote),” he
explained.
He said the Quebec caucus has expressed
concern that young people “are too radical”,
specifically in their ideas on Quebec separa-
tion.
“It’s not really an argu-
ment about whether they
should have the right to
vote, but whether it would
help win seats,” Mr. Hol-
land said.
“I don’t think that’s a
good reason to not allow
youth to vote.”
The bill should return for
a second hour of debate
at the end of March, after
which it will automatically come to a vote under
the new rules for private members’ bills.

EDITORIAL
LETTER TO THE EDITOR
Just say ‘no’ to
four-year terms
There’s plenty to be said for reliability, for knowing you
can count on something no matter what, day in and
day out.
When it comes to our politicians, however, we’ll take ’em
with a firm, limited, best before date.
Durham Region councillors recently debated whether to
ask the Province to extend municipal council terms to four
years, which would add an extra 12 months to their current
term of office, and 18 of the 27 councillors supported it, with
Pickering’s four representatives in favour.
The discussion stemmed from the Municipality of Claring-
ton, which along with the Region is asking all municipalities to
recommend the change. The idea is expected to come before
Pickering council Feb. 14 for similar support.
The arguments from the pro side are that three years is an
awful short period of time, relatively speaking, for the impor-
tant responsibilities of holding public office. In addition, the
feeling is that the job requirements are continuing to grow for
municipal politicians, meaning there is a greater and longer
learning curve. Finally, the move to longer terms would effec-
tively put more coins in a municipality’s bank. Without having
to pay the cost of running an election or committing staff time
every three years, the Region and Pickering would be further
ahead financially in the long run.
But what all those arguments fail to consider is that longer
terms would in fact reduce the accountability of the elected
officials with the most impact on our day-to-day lives. Munici-
pal politicians ultimately arrange to have our streets plowed,
keep our water running, collect our garbage, build our road-
ways, construct new recreation facilities, decide where dogs
can run free — the list goes on and on. There isn’t much we
do that isn’t directly or indirectly impacted by their decisions.
As such, allowing residents to have a definitive say on the
job being done is a must. Plenty can be accomplished in three
years, and residents can take plenty of stock in their elected
representatives’ on-the-job performance during that time.
Democracy demands elections be held in a timely fashion,
and at the municipal level, the current three-year model is
serving residents best. Give us reliability in a car, a friend, or a
pet. But give us accountability with our politicians.
Regional transit offers lesson to learn from
To the editor:
Re: Regional transportation.
Hopefully citizens are aware that this is the same issue that
was presented previously to regional councillors without any
business plan relating to this venture last year. At the time the
majority of regional council was all for going ahead there and
then. Thankfully calmer heads prevailed and insisted on doing
things the correct and businesslike way.
Now that all the facts and figures are in, some of the previ-
ous supporters, suddenly realizing that they were not going
to get something for nothing, have changed their minds. Let’s
hope the next time the issue of an elected chairman comes up
they show the same willingness to revisit their decision and
do what the electorate wants: that being to make the regional
chairman’s job open to anyone and not a reserved seat.
Incidentally, those calmer heads I mentioned were led by
Mayor Steve Parish and councillors Scott Crawford and Col-
leen Jordan — all of course from Ajax, who as usual were on
the vanguard of sensibility. We should congratulate ourselves
for choosing these smart politicians to protect the interests of
Ajax at the regional level — it was obviously the right one.

I ts time has finally come.
Earlier this week the federal Liber-
als introduced one of the most con-
troversial pieces of legislation in years
to the House of Commons: legislation to
legalize same-sex marriage.
The debate has been ongoing for
months (or is it years?) with some politi-
cians talking about preserving the tradi-
tional definition of marriage or having
civil unions to recognize committed re-
lationships, while others talk about pro-
tecting the Charter of Rights and Free-
doms and equal rights.
Not all politicians share the same
opinion, but what they do share is the
way they present it. They use abstract
ideas and big words, almost removing
people entirely from the discussion.
One of the few times I heard otherwise
was a few weeks ago at one of Ajax-
Pickering MP Mark Holland’s town hall
meetings. The airport was the dominate
issue of the evening, however a lone resi-
dent came to find out her MP’s position
on the issue of same-sex marriage.
Mr. Holland started his response by
talking about equality and protecting the
Charter, sounding very much like a poli-
tician. (For anyone who doesn’t know,
Mr. Holland supports the legislation).
But then for a moment he put the
rhetoric aside and spoke like a regular
person. He shared that one of his aunts
was gay and that he didn’t understand
how allowing her to marry her partner of
many years would hurt his three young
children or take away from his own mar-
riage.
As someone who agrees with Mr. Hol-
land’s position, I was both glad to hear
an MP speak from the heart and sad that
I didn’t live in his riding.
My member of Parliament supports
the ‘traditional definition of marriage,’
which he says his constituents want.
Judging from the comments made fol-
lowing Mr. Holland’s remarks, it is what
many of his constituents want as well.
One man said he wouldn’t be re-elected
if he supported the legislation and de-
spite this, Mr. Holland stood firm.
“That is a hill that I am willing to die
on,” he said.
Like extending the vote to women or
equal rights to blacks, this is not an issue
of majority rule, but rather one of equal-
ity and human rights.
It took strong outspoken people to
change those injustices. If anyone were
to suggest taking those away now, the
vast majority of people would scream
discrimination.
In time, I hope the same happens
when people talk about same-sex cou-
ples not being allowed to marry. Then
today’s outspoken advocates and fair-
minded politicians will get the credit
they deserve.

AJAX — Four teenagers are facing
robbery charges after being tracked
from the scene of a car accident by the
police canine unit.
Durham Regional Police responded
to a robbery at a 7-11 store on Rossland
Road West around 1:15 a.m. Monday.
The lone clerk told police that three
masked men, two armed with knives
and one carrying a baseball bat, burst
into the store and took cigarettes and
cash before fleeing to a waiting ve-
hicle.
Their escape was hampered when
the getaway vehicle was involved in
an accident not far from the store,
police said. The suspects scattered,
but two were quickly apprehended. A
police dog and handler tracked down
the remaining two suspects hiding in a
backyard nearby. One of the suspects
received minor bite wounds, police
said.
Police have charged four youths,
ranging in age from 14 to 17, in con-
nection with the robbery. The suspects
cannot be named under provisions of
the Youth Criminal Justice Act.

Staff Writer
DURHAM — Durham Regional
Police Staff Sergeant Alan Mack
knows how a lot of people feel about
the service helicopter Air 1.
He gets the phone calls. And
e-mails. And other various com-
plaints.
But Staff Sgt. Mack also knows
that when the complainants find
out just what it was the helicopter
was doing in the middle of the night,
they often wind up grateful that cops
were buzzing the neighbourhood.
“Each time I contacted the ho-
meowner and explained what the
circumstances were, it was, ‘Thank
you very much,’” Staff Sgt. Mack said
during an interview at 17 Division
headquarters in Oshawa.
“When people see that helicopter
in orbit, it’s on a call,” he said. “They
don’t train in the air.”
The wide variety of calls the he-
licopter crew responds to increases
Air 1’s visibility, Staff Sgt. Mack said.
Before the end of December, the he-
licopter had been involved in more
than 1,400 calls, ranging from miss-
ing persons to car pursuits, break
and enters and bank robberies.
Some of the calls, which can be
generated by citizen complaints,
defy any clear definition.
One such call came in around 2
o’clock one recent morning, when
a resident in the area of King Street
and Thornton Road in west Oshawa
reported a disturbance.
“Turns out it was three guys in the
cemetery with a bonfire,” Staff Sgt.
Mack said.
“O ne of them was a federal pa-
rolee.”
Needless to say, drinking around
a raging bonfire in a graveyard in the
middle of the night was not permit-
ted by the man’s parole terms.
Air 1’s crew of police officers and a
civilian pilot are ready to take to the
air from the Oshawa airport around
the clock. When a call comes in,
they can be airborne within min-
utes.
The program began on a trial
basis with Durham and York cops
sharing a helicopter in 1999. Since
then, both police services have seen
the merits of the program and pur-
chased their own helicopters.
Durham’s program now runs
on an average budget of around
$700,000 a year, most of that is ac-
counted for by salaries. The program
has proven its value over and again
by helping Durham police make ar-
rests, avoid dangerous chases and
shorten response times, Staff Sgt.
Mack said.
“(Air 1) made 127 criminal arrests
and an additional 144 assisted ar-
rests, which means they were there
to help track the (suspects),” Staff-
Sgt. Mack said.
Durham p olice helicopter calls top 1,400 in 2004
High schoolers eye
UOIT for fall studies
By Mike Ruta
Staff Writer
DURHAM — The region’s university con-
tinues to be a popular choice for students
moving on to post-secondary studies.
The Ontario Universities’ Application
Centre recently released preliminary num-
bers showing how many high school stu-
dents have applied to the province’s univer-
sities and where they want to go. The num-
ber of applications is down at virtually every
university in Ontario, 6.5-per cent lower
provincewide than January 2004.
But the University of Ontario Institute of
Te chnology (UOIT) is in a growth mode. The
university, which opened in 2003, is the first,
second or third choice of 2,276 high school-
ers, up 34 per cent from last year. No other
university comes close to that growth rate.
Almost 4,400 students in all are thinking of
going to UOIT this fall, about 600 more than
in early 2004.
“Obviously we’re just really pleased,” says
Richard Levin, vice-president of strategic
enrolment management. “It’s a demonstra-
tion of confidence in what we’re building
here. Every year there’s more word of mouth
and people go back to their (former) schools
and talk about their experiences. They must
be good experiences.”
While a breakdown on where the appli-
cants live isn’t ready yet, he expects sixty
per cent hail from outside of Durham, while
40 per cent live in the region. In order, Mr.
Levin says most of this year’s applicants are
from Toronto, Durham, York, Peel and Hal-
ton regions and Hamilton-Wentworth.
Looking farther afield, roughly 20 interna-
tional students began classes in January, for
a total of 90 now studying at UOIT.
Mr. Levin notes that the university “ex-
panded programs quite a bit this (past) fall.”
Several new programs, including business
and information technology and automo-
tive engineering, are attracting interest from
applicants, while existing ones like justice
studies and mechanical engineering remain
“very strong.”
Mr. Levin says UOIT’s popularity reflects
the need for a university in Durham.
“I also think there’s a lot of interest in the
whole notion of a technology university,” he
says.
About 1,850 students currently attend
UOIT, and Mr. Levin says 20 per cent of ap-
plicants generally end up starting classes in
September.
Provincewide, 72,968 high school students
applied for full-time university studies this
fall, filing 325,803 applications. At this time
last year, 71,222 students had sent in 348,500
applications. Arts programs continue to be
students’ first choice, accounting for 24,862
applications, followed by science (13,335),
business administration (10,844) and engi-
neering (5,240).

New programs,
partnerships
help find homes
DURHAM — For the third
straight year, Pickering-Ajax-
Whitby Animal Services was
successful in finding a home
for every adoptable pet taken
in last year.
Of the 254 dogs and 355
cats impounded at the Whit-
by shelter in 2004, none were
euthanised because PAW was
unsuccessful in finding them
homes, said Don McKay,
corporate services director
for the Town of Whitby.
In 2004, a total of 14 dogs
and 169 cats were euthanised
by PAW, but only due to ill-
ness, injury, temperament or
age. Twenty-nine dogs and
89 cats were adopted last
year, compared to 56 dogs
and 74 cats in 2003. Five “an-
imals at large” charges were
also laid in 2004, down from
nine the previous year.
“PAW can boast that for
the third successive year
no adoptable pets had to
be euthanised,” Mr. McKay
said. “With the assistance of
the general public and the
local animal rescue organi-
zations, PAW was successful
in finding a home for every
adoptable pet taken in at the
Animal Services Centre in
2004.”
Mr. McKay said the adop-
tion success of PAW is in no
small measure attributable
to a number of initiatives re-
cently introduced by PAW’s
animal control committee,
such as promotion and de-
velopment of a responsible
pet ownership program
and the goal to adopt out as
many homeless animals as
possible.
The development of an
animal services website, ad-
vertising program, new rela-
tionships with rescue groups
across the region and the
establishment of a pet foster
program have also increased
the chances that animals
that come into the centre
find good homes, he added.
“These initiatives have re-
sulted in PAW achieving a
no-kills status the last three
years,” Mr. McKay said.
At least one local coun-
cillor who sat on the PAW
committee, Pickering’s Bill
McLean, expressed outrage
in 2000 at the number of ani-
mals euthanised at the cen-
tre that year — more than 60
per cent. He previously said
the organization has become
“more compassionate,” par-
ticularly in doing away with
an old policy of euthanising
animals should they not be
claimed within five days.
For more information
about adopting a pet and re-
sponsible pet ownership, call
PAW at 905-427-8737 or go to

OPG keeping with
schedule, budget
By Keith Gilligan
Staff Writer
PICKERING — Refurbish-
ing work on a reactor at the
Pickering nuclear station re-
mains on target to begin pro-
ducing electricity in the fall.
Richard Dicerni, acting
president and chief execu-
tive officer for Ontario Power
Generation, said recently that
construction work should be
done by the middle of 2005,
followed by three months of
commissioning and testing
work.
“We’re still targeting June
or early July” to remove Unit
1 from the guaranteed shut-
down state and start to power
up the reactor, he stated fol-
lowing a media tour of the
mammoth facility.
Commissioning would fol-
low, with the unit back in
service in September or Oc-
tober, he added.
In November, the compa-
ny released its latest sched-
ule and budget estimate for
the project. At that time,
OPG officials said the unit
would be back in service by
this coming fall, with an esti-
mated price tag approaching
$1 billion. Mr. Dicerni said
the company is continuing
to adhere to those time and
money estimates.
“There hasn’t been any
discovery work to adjust the
schedule we put out,” Mr.
Dicerni stated, adding, “This
is a complex project.
“There are no gimme putts
here.”
Bill Robinson, senior vice-
president in charge of the
Pickering ‘A’ restart, said if the
company hadn’t reached a
target in January, it wouldn’t
have been able to complete
the project on time.
The target is to have at
least three-quarters of the
work done by March, Mr.
Robinson added.
“We’re pleased with the
progress over the last few
months. We’ve demonstrated
in the last few months we can
manage this project and get
the work done. We’re hold-
ing to the date we put out in
November,” he noted.
“From the standpoint
of major surprises, no we
haven’t had any. We’re mon-
itoring the work very closely.
We recognize things had
gone wrong with Unit 4.”
Monitoring is being done
to “make sure the same is-
sues aren’t cropping up,” Mr.
Robinson added.
With Unit 4, the process
was to have the work done
and then have it monitored.
Mr. Dicerni characterized
the work as “these aren’t
low-hanging fruit. It requires
management and oversight.”
The restart means a “lot of
pieces have to come togeth-
er. Monitoring Unit 1 will be
helpful to prepare the busi-
ness case (for Units 2 and 3)
pros and cons.”
New systems and parts in
different areas of the plant
still have to be integrated.
OPG is also keeping with a
budget of between $950 mil-
lion and $975 million for Unit
1. “Whatever we said, we’re
tracking to that number.”

Special to the News Advertiser
DURHAM — The sky is no limit for a
Pickering church.
On a recent faith retreat to Bogota, Co-
lumbia, Brendan Witton, lead pastor for the
Church Without Limits in Pickering, spoke
in detail of the unique elements exempli-
fied by his church and the uncharacteristic
youthful following of his congregation.
“Young people often get lost in the mix
(when it comes to church input),” said Mr.
Witton. “However, we do things differently.
We encourage new ideas, new concepts
and we try to convey the message of God
through language that is understandable
and current to young people.”
Founding pastor of the Church With-
out Limits, the 26-year-old designed the
concept for the church on the basis of
offering a relevant, practical message to
young people interested in expanding their
faith. A Christian-based belief structure,
the church features a weekly congregation
of more than 200 members who, on aver-
age, range between the ages of 18 and 30.
Although many in the congregation are
younger, Mr. Witton continues to encour-
age members of all faiths and ages to at-
tend services.
“We do not want to neglect the teach-
ings of older generations. All are welcome
to visit our church, both young and old,”
said Mr. Witton. “Our mission is to serve
the creed of God. We want to bring about
change and positive influence amongst the
community. We’re a church committed to
practical answers from the Bible, not just
doctrines and theories.”
Karla Belfon, a 21-year-old student at
Tyndale University College and Seminary
in Toronto, knows all too well the soulful
healings of the Church Without Limits.
After growing up in Scarborough, the Ajax
resident recognizes the life-altering ben-
efits she has gained since affirming her
faith with the church.
“I see old friends and acquaintances of
mine who are either dead or in jail now. I
often think what could have been if I hadn’t
strayed from that lifestyle,” said Ms. Belfon.
“The (Church Without Limits) saved me.
It gave me hope, it gave me strength, and
most of all it helped me to find God.”
A member of the church since its incep-
tion in November 2000, the psychology
major is proud to be a part of its vastly
youth-oriented congregation. Emphasizing
the respect demonstrated and relevance of
the sermons to young people, Ms. Belfon is
ecstatic over the way the church conveys
its message to the public.
“This is not your traditional church.
Every service is fun, interesting and fam-
ily-oriented,” said Ms. Belfon. “I don’t see
how other churches can take the most
important thing in life, God, and make it
boring. Life is so short, it’s important to live
for something.”
Church Without Limits is in Pickering
at 882 Kingston Rd. E. at the St. Paul’s on
the Hill Anglican Church. Services are held
Saturdays at 5:15 and 8:30 p.m. For more
information regarding the church, call 905-
831-5454 or visit www.churchwithoutlim-
its.com.

Marathon boosts
diabetes research
DURHAM — Have fun travelling
while raising money for the Canadian
Diabetes Association.
Te am Diabetes Canada is once again
inviting people from Ontario to jour-
ney to Reykjavik, Iceland to walk or
run the Fire and Ice Marathon. The
marathon is part of Reykjavik’s annual
Cultural Night, which showcases the
city’s night life, in addition to many
artistic and cultural attractions. Reyk-
javik is renowned for its countless geo-
thermally heated pools and lagoons.
The total economic burden of diabe-
tes and its chronic complications costs
the Canadian health-care system $13.2
billion annually. Team Diabetes raises
money for the Canadian Diabetes As-
sociation.
The marathon takes place along the
ocean coast and out into the coun-
tryside, showcasing Iceland’s majestic
scenery and unspoiled nature.
As Diabetes Type 2 can be prevented
with a healthy and active lifestyle, join-
ing Team Diabetes is a good way to
reach that goal.
The marathon is Aug. 20, while the
deadline for registrations is Feb. 11.
Par ticipants come from all age groups
and athletic levels and commit to rais-
ing a minimum amount for diabetes
research, service, advocacy and educa-
tion in Canada.
In return, the Team Diabetes Canada
program provides professional training
for walkers and runners, round-trip
airfare and accommodations.
The full marathon is suitable for run-
ners and the half is suitable for walkers
and runners.

All’s fair with science
PICKERING — Students from across Ajax and Pickering were at Bayview Heights Public School recently for
a junior science fair. From left, Griffen Palmer, Chris Elcombe, Madison Cleary, and Nicole Vandenheuvel of
Rosebank Public School work on ‘Don’t Bug Me,’ which required the matching of invertebrates.
PICKERING — An upcoming meeting
discusses the keys to bidding on govern-
ment contracts.
Small business owners, self-employed
individuals, people in the corporate
world or skilled trades, and those seek-
ing employment are invited to attend the
fourth faith-based networking forum.
Participants learn about other commu-
nity businesses, promote themselves,
and at this session discover how to com-
pete for government contracts.
Guests from the City of Pickering and
Ontario Secretariat will provide insight
into the bidding process.
The meeting is Saturday, Feb. 5 from
10 a.m. to noon at the Gathering Place,
1920 Bayly St. in Pickering. Cost is $25.
Pickering, Province help with bidding process
Pressure taken off
consumer to finish the
bottle, Bedwell adds
By Joshua May
Special to the News Advertiser
AJAX — The Province has uncorked
a great idea for dining establishments,
says a local restaurateur.
Under controversial new legislation
from the Ontario government, patrons
around the province are now privy to
a new feature at participating restau-
rants: Bring Your Own Wine (BYOW).
The idea, borrowed from successful
ventures in both Alberta and Quebec,
allows patrons the convenience of
supplying their own wine for dinner,
without feeling obligated to finish the
bottle, says Travis Bedwell.
“Wine is an expensive commodity,”
said the manager at Pennello Bistro
in Ajax. “A lot of the time people can-
not drink an entire bottle (of wine)
throughout their dinner and stay lon-
ger to finish what they’ve purchased.
When you spend any amount of
money at a restaurant, you’re always
hoping to get the most for what you
paid for. This relieves the pressure.”
A policy intended to provide choice
to the consumer, the BYOW act allows
patrons the ability to bring a bottle of
wine to any participating restaurant
with the option of having the bottle
corked and brought home if not fin-
ished.
However, the Alcohol and Gaming
Commission of Ontario warns that
only LCBO-sanctioned bottles of wine
will be accepted at participating res-
taurants, with no exceptions made for
bottles of the homemade variety.
To counteract a potential loss in
wine sales to restaurant retailers, the
government has allowed participating
establishments the ability to charge
those bringing in outside bottles a
corking fee.
However, Mr. Bedwell points out,
the cost pales in comparison to the
hefty fees charged for some featured
wines.
“The consumer is saving money
here,” said Mr. Bedwell. “This (act) al-
lows our clientele the ability to supply
their own choice (of wine) for dinner
without being limited to the selection
of our restaurant, and often, bring in
a less expensive bottle without en-
countering standard industry mark-
up fees.”
The Ontario BYOW program largely
borrows from the Alberta act, under
which five per cent of the Province’s
restaurants actively participate. The
legislation requires that any restaurant
providing its customers this service be
fully-licensed by the government.
As of earlier this week, of the 17,400
restaurants in Ontario, 48 have ap-
plied for a licence.
“This (act) is very important to our
business,” said Mr. Bedwell. “Liquor
and beer sales pale in comparison to
the amount of wine purchased here
(at Pennello Bistro). We understand
our clientele are often looking to try
new things.
“We’re just hoping they appreciate
this gesture on our part.”
Established in 1995, Pennello Bistro
is an Italian eatery located in Picker-
ing Village.

Portrait of singer
‘well received’
by family
By Keith Gilligan
Staff Writer
AJAX — Al Slark has put
his stamp on the U.S. Postal
Service.
On Jan. 28, a stamp bear-
ing an illustration painted
by the Ajax resident was re-
leased to the general public
across the U.S.
The 37-cent stamp of
black singer Marian An-
derson is one of five works
Slark has painted for the
American postal service.
“A nderson was a great,
classically-trained singer.
She did opera,” he says.
“She couldn’t make it as
a singer because of her
skin colour. She was a big
singer in Europe. She was a
great activist and spoke for
equality.”
He was approached to do
the Anderson stamp about
a year ago.
“My rep was asked about
my availability. For a stamp,
I’m always available. I get a
black-and-white photo of
the person. I make a sketch.
I had to hire African-Amer-
ican models to simulate the
skin tone,” Slark says.
He also found the tone
from the few colour photo-
graphs of Anderson.
“I take that and come up
with a final portrait. I show
them the sketch and they
say go ahead.”
Once he’s finished his
work, it’s turned in and a
“whole commission and
board” review the work. Ul-
timately, the subject’s fam-
ily has the final say. “From
what I hear, it was well re-
ceived. I was able to do the
lady justice.”
U.S. postal officials con-
tacted Slark about doing
the Anderson portrait.
“They saw a page of my
work in a book for illustra-
tors. They liked my style,”
he says. “They called my
rep. He called and said I got
a stamp in the U.S.
“I researched her and
thought ‘wow, she would
make a great portrait,’” he
says, adding the portrait
was done in oil. “I wanted
to capture the look in her
eyes, soft yet determined.”
Slark was also commis-
sioned to do a portrait of
Paul Robeson, another
black singer who had to go
to Europe.
After submitting the por-
trait, Robeson’s family in-
stead decided to go with
a black-and-white photo-
graph.
He was told he would be
asked to do other stamps,
but he hasn’t been told
when.
With stamps, “I usu-
ally paint them five to six
times larger than they’re
used. When it’s shrunk, all
the details show up,” Slark
notes, adding that making
a portrait “eye-catching” is
“my objective as the artist.”
He works in oil when
doing private commissions
and portraits.
As an illustrator, he also
does book covers, such as
romance novels, and he’s
completed more than 300.
He’s earned his living as an
illustrator since 1994.
He and his wife Josie
moved to the area from
North York a year ago and
“we absolutely love Ajax.”
He hasn’t had an oppor-
tunity to create a Canadian
stamp yet, though.
“I’m waiting for the (An-
derson) stamp to be re-
leased and I’ll show them.
I’ll definitely approach
them.”
He notes in Canada,
stamps are often photo-
graphs.

be viewed at www.albert-
slark.com.

Ajax and Pickering
students record
holiday favourites
By Mike Ruta
Staff Writer
AJAX — It’s a little early,
or late, to get into the Christ-
mas spirit, but there’s a lot
of it in some local elemen-
tary schools this week.
Students are recording
seasonal favourites for a CD
coming out this fall. Fun
2 Sing is an Ontario-wide
music education and work-
shop program that touched
down at Duffin’s Bay,
Frenchman’s Bay and Bay-
view Heights public schools,
in addition to St. Marguerite
Bourgeoys Catholic School.
Future workshops are slat-
ed for St. Francis de Sales
and St. Monica Catholic
schools.
“It went beautifully,” said
St. Marguerite teacher Carla
Wilson of Tuesday’s session.
She runs the junior-inter-
mediate choir at the school
with Amanda Fera.
“We had a great time.
We’re definitely putting
ourselves on the list for next
year,” Ms. Wilson said.
Roughly 65 students in
Grade 4 to 8 sang ‘Here We
Go a Carolling’, ‘The First
Noel’ and ‘I Saw Three
Ships.’ They also piped up
for O Canada, a recording
to be used as part of morn-
ing announcements at the
school. Ms. Wilson says the
students meet once a week
all year long for practice
and were looking forward
to the session.
“To have something like
that really validates all their
work,” she says. “This was
sort of a perk.”
After performing, they
listened as recording engi-
neer Robert Hanson spoke
about his profession and
answered student ques-
tions. Recording company
Folkes Hanson Productions
co-ordinates Fun 2 Sing.
At Duffin’s Bay, students
sang ‘Silent Night’, ‘O Come
Emmanuel’ and ‘Pat-A-Pan’.
Mary Jane Corradetti, in-
termediate music and Grade
8 teacher at the school, says
students in the senior choir,
roughly 30 in all, were very
excited to participate. The
students also recorded O
Canada on a separate CD so
that it can be played during
morning announcements.

Tr ojans sputter, but still beat Spartans
Rainford’s 24 points
key to first-round
win at St. Mary-News
Advertiser tourney
By Al Rivett
Sports Editor
DURHAM — Ly ndon Rainford’s
game is rounding into shape nicely
after an injury put the Pickering
High School Trojans’ starting for-
ward on the shelf for an extended
period of time.
Although he admitted to being
somewhat out of shape after a week-
long layoff for exams, Rainford was
the Trojans’ leading man on the
boards and on the scoresheet in a
78-66 win over the Dunbarton High
School Spartans in preliminary
action at the fourth annual News
Advertiser-St. Mary Classic senior
boys’ basketball tournament.
The hoops battle between the
Ajax and Pickering schools was one
of eight games in the 16-team tour-
nament played at St. Mary Thurs-
day. Action continues today (Fri-
day), culminating in the champion-
ship game on Saturday night at 8:30
p.m.
Scoring 24 points and generally
giving the Spartans fits in the paint,
Rainford says he’s happy to be back
playing at a high level and fully recu-
perated from a broken wrist that oc-
curred in only the Trojans’ second
tournament game of the season.
He recalls going up for a layup
in a game against Toronto’s Henry
Carr. An opposing player undercut
him at the legs, causing him to land
awkwardly on his wrist. Moreover,
he’s convinced the play was flagrant
— in a word, dirty.
“I felt that way,” says the six-foot-
two-inch, 180-pound forward of the
incident.
Although he still has bouts of pain,
especially in the morning, Rainford
proclaims himself fully recovered
and has been a solid contributor in
the Trojans’ 7-0 undefeated record
in Lake Ontario Secondary School
Athletics (LOSSA) league play thus
far.
As for their chances, Rainford says
the Trojans (17-5 overall) “definitely
have a shot” to get to the final of
the tournament, that also includes
top-10 ranked teams from Oakwood
Collegiate and Northern Secondary
from Toronto.
But, in order to give the Trojans a
chance at a third title in the four-year
history of the tournament, Rainford
says he and his teammates will have
to shake off the rust that was evident
in the first game.
The layoff from practice “might
disrupt our offence for a bit, but
after today’s game, hopefully we’ll
be better.”
The Trojans play their second-
round match against the St. Joan
of Arc Catholic Secondary School
Knights of Barrie today (Friday)
with the result unavailable at press
deadline.
Although playing well enough to
subdue the Spartans, Trojans’ coach
Marc Picard was unimpressed with
his charges defensive play.
“I don’t think we played very well,”
says Picard. “Offensively, we could
score at will but, defensively, we
did a very poor job. Scoring points
wasn’t a problem, it was preventing
them that was a problem.”
As for the Spartans, they too, have
been out of the gym for a week,
and haven’t played a game in two
weeks. Notwithstanding the lack of
preparation, rebounding was the
team’s biggest downfall, says coach
Jeff Maharaj.
“If we had rebounded a little bet-
ter, we could have won. We were
totally out-rebounded this time and
the last time we played them,” la-
ments Maharaj, whose Spartans
were a late addition to the tourna-
ment, owing to Toronto’s Vaughan
Road Academy Vipers pulling out
due to a lack of players.
The Spartans frontcourt was also
hurting from the absences of cen-
tres Andrew Powell and Nashon
Hill, who were unavailable for
Thursday’s game, says Maharaj.
Pickering High led from start to
finish, opening up a 15-9 edge be-
fore Dunbarton came back to within
four points at the buzzer (21-17) on
consecutive treys by Shane Tingling
and Rayon Segree.
The Trojans looked poised to
drum the Spartans off the court in
the second quarter, going on an 11-
0 run and leading by 14 with 2:54
remaining in the quarter. Dunbar-
ton, however, battled back in the
late going to cut the deficit to 37-30
at the half.
Pickering High increased their
advantage to 10 points (58-48) at the
end of the third quarter, and contin-
ued to pull away on the Spartans in
the final quarter.
In addition to Rainford, Marcus
Wong had 17 points, and Damion
Davis 11.
Tingling led the Spartans with a
25-point effort.
In other action on Thursday, the
Va ughan Secondary School Voya-
geurs got past Pickering’s Pine
Ridge Secondary School Pumas 65-
61. Karl Frederick led the Voyageurs
with 31 points, followed by Vlad
Kovalevsky, Vaughan’s big six-foot-
seven-inch centre, with 15. Ricardo
Pearce netted 26 for the Pumas.
The Wilfrid Laurier Blue Devils,
of Scarborough, downed the G.L.
Roberts Lakers of Oshawa 78-69.
Marvell Waithe had 26 points for
Laurier. Tyson Eteli netted 24 for the
Lakers.
The St. Joan of Arc Catholic Sec-
ondary School Knights of Barrie
lowered the boom on Ajax’s Notre
Dame Catholic Secondary School
Cougars 77-34. Sebastian Kasiuk
had 24 and J.P. Amaral added 23 for
the Knights. Paul Golebiowski had
14 for the Cougars.
Host St. Mary posted an 80-68
victory over the Monsignor Percy
Johnson Jaguars of Toronto. Duane
Howard led the Monarchs with 29
points. Nana Ntim replied with 24
for the Jaguars.

In Loving Memory
GLADYS LILLIAN
STEWART
(nee Kerr)
Au gust 31, 1932 - February 3, 2004
Sadly missed along life's way
Quietly remembered every day
No longer in my life to share
But in my heart, she's always there
Sadly missed by Granddaughter
Emily Beaulieu, age 10
Please God, forgive a silent tear
A fervent wish my Mim was here
There are others, yes I know
But she was mine, and I loved her so
Dear God, take a message
To my Mim in heaven above
Tell her how much I miss her
And give her all my love
Sadly missed by Grandson
Jordan O'Brien, age 18
We often think of bygone days
When we were all together
The family chain is broken now
But memories will live forever
To us, she has not gone away
Nor has she travelled far
Just entered God's eternal home
And left the gate ajar
Lovingly remembered by Son Randy
Stewart, wife Debbie and grandchildren
Amanda, Taylor, Angie and Joe
The things I feel most deeply
Are the hardest things to say
Dearest Mom, I loved you
In a very special way
If I could have one lifetime wish
One dream that could come true
I'd pray to God with all my heart
For yesterday, and you
Lovingly remembered by Daughter Cathy
Stewart-Beaulieu, husband Don and
grandchildren Jason, Chris, Sam,
Jessie and Emily
If I had all the world to give
I'd give it yes, and more
To hear your voice, see your smile
And greet you at the door
But all I can do, dear Mom
Is go and tend your grave
And leave behind tokens of love
To the Best Mom God ever made
I like to think when life is done
Wherever heaven may be
You'll be standing at the door
Up there to welcome me
Lovingly remembered by Daughter,
Heather O'Brien, husband Lloyd and
grandson, Jordan.
Wishing today as I wished before
God could have spared you
many years more
With silent thought and deep regret
Loving memories, I will never forget
Loved and missed by husband, Lavern.
In Loving Memory of a Great
Husband, Father & Papa
Douglas Edward Andrew
who passed away Feb. 4, 2004
It only takes a little space to write how much we
miss you, But it will take the rest of our lives to
forget the day we lost you.You left us so suddenly,
1 year ago today. It broke our hearts to lose you,
But you didn't go alone. A part of us went with you,
The day God took you home. So many times we
think of you, So many times we've cried.
Our lives go on without you, But nothing is the
same. Our family circle has been broken, A link
gone from our chain. Although we've cried a lot of
tears, We know we'll meet again.
Sadly missed and Forever in our Hearts.
Sharon, Tammie & Jim, Michelle & John,
Grandsons - Darren, Kyle, Evan, Owen & Ethan and
our families.
JAMES, JACK (John)
In loving memory of
Father & Husband
Who passed away
February 4, 2004.
We think of you
in silence,
And often speak your name.
All we have are memories,
And your picture in a frame.
In life we loved you dearly,
In death we love you still.
In our hearts you hold a place,
No one can ever fill.
Always and forever,
Wife, Betty & Son Andy & Rebecca.
