PICKERING — The United Church in
Durham wants the federal government
to stop the planning for an airport of
any kind in Pickering.
At the Oshawa Presbytery Faith in
Action Committee meeting at the end
of the summer, a motion was passed
concerning the social aspects of the
proposed airport and the federal lands
in Pickering. The Oshawa Presbytery
covers the United Churches in most of
Durham. Rev. Glen Eagle introduced
the motion. He is the minister at St.
Paul’s United Church in Ajax. He was
approached by Gerd Untermann,
a member of the Claremont United
Church, to pass a motion condemning
the idea of an airport. Mr. Untermann
is a member of Land Over Landings
(LOL), a group opposed to an airport
that wants to see the land protected.
“Because I used to live in Claremont,
I knew about the airport anyway,” Rev.
Eagle said.
The motion he presented was more
general and touched on issues social
in nature.
“There were some concerns with
the way people were being treated,” he
said. The motion touches on the envi-
ronmental sensitivity of the land and
the treatment of the tenants by Public
Works – including evictions and repair
requests that go unanswered.
“Whereas this prime farmland is the
highest and best class of agricultural
lands, A1, and is the last of this class
between Toronto and the east coast
of Canada. And whereas Public Works
has grossly mismanaged the structures
on the property by failing to main-
tain them in habitable condition by
performing regular maintenance...And
whereas Public Works has failed to
re-tenant the inhabitable structures
thereby leaving them vulnerable to
theft and vandalism,” it reads in part.
“There were a lot of social issues that
were a problem,” Rev. Eagle said.
Prior to voting, there was a presenta-
tion from Sharon Powell of LOL and
Bernadette Zubrinsky from the Sierra
Club of Canada.
The motion, which calls on the gov-
ernment to “halt the current plans
to development of an airport of any
kind on the lands in Pickering and
to enter into long term leases with
the tenant farmers,” was nearly passed
unanimously. It was forwarded to sev-
eral federal ministries including public
works, agriculture, and environment.
“This is something where the gov-
ernment needs to have public input,”
Rev. Eagle said.

Police welcome first female superintendent
Blue blood runs
in Sherry Whiteway’s
family
By Danielle Milley
Staff Writer
DURHAM — It’s been almost a
month since Sherry Whiteway was
promoted to superintendent, but she’s
still walking around in a honeymoon
state.
She received the official call from
Chief Vernon White Sept. 25 letting her
know she had been selected out of six
candidates.
“I was ecstatic. It was very humbling.
I knew I had a very high calibre of
competition,” she said. “I didn’t know
who to phone first – my husband, son,
daughters or my father.”
She is the first female in the history
of the Durham Regional Police Services
to achieve the rank of superintendent.
Supt. Whiteway grew up wanting to be
a police officer.
“I followed in dad’s footsteps basi-
cally,” she said. “There’s a policing cul-
ture that when you grow up in a polic-
ing home with the values and wanting
to help...It’s very rewarding.”
Her father, Herb LeGard, is a retired
DRPS staff sergeant.
“I can remember coming home and
putting his hat on and holding his billy
stick walking around the house pre-
tending,” she said.
Although she knew most of her life
it was what she wanted to do, Supt.
Whiteway didn’t don a uniform until
she was 25 years old. Upon high school
graduation she applied to the Toronto
police department, but didn’t get ac-
cepted, and then had a brief stint in
banking before becoming part of the
DRPS in Pickering.
Wanting to learn as much as pos-
sible, Supt. Whiteway took every op-
portunity she could and changed posi-
tions every few years. After Pickering,
it was on to Ajax and then Whitby, fol-
lowed by a six-month stint in criminal
investigations. She was promoted to
sergeant in 1991 and to staff sergeant
in 1995. She finished her staff sergeant
career in professional standards. In
2003, she was promoted to inspector,
serving as a duty inspector, a division
leader in Ajax-Pickering and most re-
cently in communications.
“It’s not common (to move that
much). I was very fortunate,” she said.
“I was able to move up and transfer. I
was fortunate that I was able to learn
more.” Over her 27-year career, she has
seen a lot of changes in the force and in
Durham.
When she started she was the 11th
woman to be hired and today 17 per
cent of the force is female.
“That’s definitely a change,” she
said, adding the force is now actively
recruiting to try to be more representa-
tive of the community.
There have been other, more nega-
tive changes, too.

“Our increasing amount of guns and
gangs is troubling. I first noticed it when
I was in Ajax-Pickering,” she said, add-
ing in the early days officers rarely had
to pull their guns. “The officers are hav-
ing to do that on a regular basis because
of the number of guns on the street.”
One of her memorable beat experi-
ences involved her having to pull her
gun – and fight for it.
“That was probably the worst experi-
ence any police officer can have,” Supt.
Whiteway said.
It was 1981, early in her career, and
a call came in about a robbery. Her
shift was ending, but she took the call.
While driving in Ajax near Hwy. 401 she
saw someone who matched the sus-
pect’s description. As she approached,
he opened the passenger side of the
cruiser and, since he was supposed to
be armed, she went for her gun.
“He lunged in the car and grabbed it
and we played tug of war,” she said. “He
lost and I won.”
Thinking back, Supt. Whiteway isn’t
sure that was the best decision. To make
sure the gun couldn’t be used against
her, she emptied the clip, spilling the
bullets onto the floor.
“Would I do it again that way? Prob-
ably not,” she said.
While that memory sticks out in her
mind, she said every position she’s held
has brought its own challenges and spe-
cial moments. She has received several
accolades, including a YWCA woman of
distinction award in 2004.
“That was a tremendous honour,” she
said.
Her new post is bound to hold many
challenges and opportunities. As su-
perintendent responsible for regional
operations, she is in change or Air1, K-9,
tactical support, traffic, marine, nuclear
security and communications 911. Her
first order of business was to familiarize
herself with those units and meet the
officers.
One of her priorities is “bringing back
the recognition to the frontline officers
as being the true backbone to our orga-
nization,” she said.
Supt. Whiteway is also looking ahead
to the growth needs of Durham.
“I am aware of the Seaton commu-
nity (in Pickering). We have to ensure
the infrastructure is in place to meet the
new community members,” she said.
“Youth, obviously, is a big concern.”
After nearly 27 years as a police of-
ficer, Supt. Whiteway still loves the job.
“I’m still as enthralled with it,” she
said. “It’s a real privilege to be where I
am.” She likes the constant change and
the ability to help people. Even if she
wasn’t a police officer, she believes she
would still be in a career where she was
helping people.
She isn’t sure what the future holds,
but if an opportunity presents itself and
she thinks she is the right person for the
job, she’ll pursue it.
“As long as I am contributing and I’m
positive and really making a difference
I don’t have an end date in mind,” Supt.
Whiteway said.
The support of her family has made
the demands of the career easier. They
understand as her husband Tom is a
sergeant and her oldest daughter is a
constable.
While her job keeps her busy, she
said she loves to travel and ride her
Harley in the warmer months.

John Allan Cameron
remembered as a father
and musical mentor
By Danielle Milley
Staff Writer
PICKERING — Family, friends and
admirers gathered Monday morning
to celebrate the life of Celtic music
legend John Allan Cameron.
Close to 500 people filled St. Isaac
Jogues Catholic Church on Finch Av-
enue in Pickering to pay their respects
to the man who brought the music of
his Cape Breton roots to the world.
With a career that spanned 40 years,
Mr. Cameron made a significant con-
tribution to the music industry in Can-
ada, paving the way for such artists as
The Rankins, Great Big Sea, and Nata-
lie MacMaster (a distant cousin).
In 2003 he received the Order of
Canada in recognition of his efforts
in establishing and growing the Celtic
music scene in Canada.
Mr. Cameron passed away Nov. 22
after a lengthy battle with bone mar-
row cancer and leukemia. He was 67.
His son Stuart was one of the people
who eulogized him at the service. He
spoke of a book his mother Angela
gave to Mr. Cameron for his birthday
in 2001. It’s called ‘A Father’s Legacy’
and contained questions about life,
upbringing, and beliefs, among other
topics.
“He answered every single one of
these. There are pages after pages.
There are coffee stains on pages. I can
tell which ones he wrote on a plane...”
he said. “It’s something I greatly cher-
ish.” He read a few of his father’s an-
swers, including how he would de-
scribe success.
“Success to me is to achieve what
you are most passionate about,” he
read. “To me it is not wealth or fame.”
Mr. Cameron may have never
achieved great wealth doing what he
loved, but he was well respected and
admired. Several musicians were there
Monday to pay their respects, includ-
ing fiddler Ashley MacIsaac, rocker
Tom Cochrane, and singer Damhnait
Doyle. Other notable people at the
funeral were Walter Gretzky, Pickering
Mayor Dave Ryan, and Pickering-Ajax-
Uxbridge MP Dan McTeague.
While there were tears during the
mass, there were also many laughs
and smiles as people remembered the
godfather of Celtic music in Canada.
“He was proud of his heritage and
wore a kilt,” said John Donald Cam-
eron, his older brother. “He said if he
couldn’t make it wearing his kilt and
playing the guitar, he wouldn’t.”
He released 11 albums during his
career and had two television shows
in the 1970s. At the end of the mass,
one of his best know songs, ‘Lord of
the Dance’, could be heard outside
as everyone sang it in tribute to Mr.
Cameron. A pipe band playing ‘Amaz-
ing Grace’ led the procession of the
casket, Mr. Cameron’s widow, his
son and other family members out of
the church. Mr. Cameron was born
in Mabou, Nova Scotia in 1968. He
lived in Markham for 20 years and had
called Pickering home for the past 10.
