Sometimes you
have no choice but
to work in the heat
By Kristen Calis
kcalis@durhamregion.com
DURHAM — Serving hot dogs
and fries at Pickering’s waterfront
on Wednesday, Karl Kalinich
couldn’t wait for his next break.
“Next break I get, I’m going
into the lake,” he said.
Mr. Kalinich works at the Sha-
kin’ and Bacon on the Beach...
chip truck. He works from around
9 a.m. to 8 p.m. every day.
A number of people through-
out Pickering and Ajax were
working in very high tempera-
tures Wednesday, including con-
struction workers, camp counsel-
lors and police officers.
“Oh, it’s really hot,” Mr. Kalin-
ich said.
“It’s actually about 20 degrees
hotter in here than it is outside.”
He said he constantly pours
water on his head to keep cool,
and he’d already drank seven
bottles of water and it was only
noon. He also said he takes
around four showers each day at
an outdoor shower close by.
Brittany Main, a Town of Ajax
Canoe Club counsellor, is not
only responsible for keeping her-
self cool at Rotary Park in Ajax,
but the kids in the program, too.
“We try to make sure the kids
are regularly filling up their water
bottles and going to the water
fountains in between canoeing
sessions and taking it with them
on the canoes.”
She said, adding the kids will
play more water games, sitting-
down games and singing songs.
Ms. Main said the sun is diffi-
cult to bear directly, but it’s easier
in the shade.
“Definitely when the wind is
coming by, it’s nice, but in the
still air like this it’s hot, you can
feel the humidity,” she said.
She said they try to eat lunch in
the shade and the kids can play
in the splash pad if they’re well-
behaved.

Police said man
ran one of most
sophisticated
marijuana
g row ops they
have seen
By Erin Hatfield
ehatfield@durhamregion
DURHAM — A judge will
decide if the case of a man
accused of running one
of the most sophisticated
marijuana grow opera-
tions police say they have
seen will see the inside of
a courtroom.
Roland Liebregts, 60,
of Whitby, is charged
with production and pos-
session of marijuana for
the purpose of traffick-
ing after police said they
located two greenhouses
filled with 1,000 marijua-
na plants in north Whitby.
Mr. Liebregts has filed a
charter motion saying po-
lice violated his rights.
A number of Durham
Regional Police officers
testified during the three-
day charter hearing which
wrapped up Wednesday.
“To my surprise they
w ere the tallest plants I
had ever seen,” said Ser-
geant David Taylor, an ex-
perienced member of the
Durham Regional Police
Service’s drug enforce-
ment unit.
“These were two very
large and sophisticated
green houses... They were
enormous marijuana
plants.”
Where a normal mari-
juana plant would yield
about a quarter pound
of the drugs these plants,
some in excess of seven-
feet tall, produced a full
pound of marijuana, Sgt.
Taylor explained.
“We actually had to
call in the Region of Dur-
ham with a chipper and
we chipped 1,000 plants,”
Sgt. Taylor said. “It took us
hours.”
Mr. Liebregt’s defence
lawyer, Jacqueline An, said
the police held her client
without good reason and,
furthermore, this unlawful
detention is what yielded
the information about the
grow operation making
that search unjust.
Finally, she argued Mr.
Liebregts’ right to coun-
sel was violated when he
asked to speak to a lawyer
and wasn’t provided that
opportunity within a rea-
sonable time frame.
On Sept. 23, 2005, a re-
port of a suspicious man
hiding in a cornfield drew
police to the area of Coro-
nation Road and Country
Lane in North Whitby.
When police arrived,
Constable Spencer Ford
testified, they saw a man
coming out of the corn-
field. Const. Ford said he
was suspicious of the situ-
ation because they had an
earlier call about a suspi-
cious vehicle in the same
area.
The court heard from
Constable Jennifer Mc-
Millan, who at the time
was still in training to be
a Durham Regional Police
officer. Const. McMillan
was the arresting officer.
She said her notes in-
dicate, “male detained in
the back of the cruiser”,
but she said he wasn’t re-
ally being detained, but
had been asked if he want-
ed to have a seat in the
back of the cruiser while
police went to search the
perimeter. It was while Mr.
Liebregts was sitting in the
back of the police car that
he told officers there was
a marijuana grow opera-
tion in the cornfield and
he was in there protecting
it.
In relation to the right
to speak to a lawyer, tapes
shown during the submis-
sion clearly show Mr. Lie-
bregts asking to speak to a
lawyer. Ms. An argued Sgt.
Taylor gave her client legal
advice when he says in the
tape, “you don’t have to
talk to a lawyer.”
Crown Attorney Ramo-
na Abraham argued the
detention of Mr. Liebregts
was for investigative pur-
poses and, therefore, not
an illegal detention.
Furthermore, she said
the intention of the police
was never to not allow Mr.
Liebregts to talk to a law-
yer. “There is no evidence
that they knew they were
acting outside their pow-
ers,” Ms. Abraham said.
“They didn’t do anything
to blatantly violate the
rights of the accused.”
Justice Barry MacDou-
gall will decide on Aug.
27 if the Charter motion
stands up.
If the motion stands up
the Crown has said she
will withdraw the charges.
If not, Mr. Liebregts will
stand trial on the two
charges.

Bill McLean hopes
to implement
zero-tolerance policy
in Pickering
By Kristen Calis
kcalis@durhamregion.com
PICKERING — A Pickering coun-
cillor admits he didn’t last long in
organized sports as a kid because
of the yelling and screaming from
parents and coaches.
“Who wants to be in that environ-
ment?” Ward 2 Regional Councillor
Bill McLean said. “It’s the parents
and the coaches that turn them off,
and turn them off for life. And that’s
what you don’t want. You want to
keep them involved.”
Coun. McLean has supported
True Sport, an organization that
encourages fair play and positive
attitudes in sport, since 2005. Now,
Coun. McLean thinks Pickering has
to go even further and implement
a zero-tolerance policy throughout
the City. The policy, if passed by
Council, will not tolerate offensive
behaviour at sporting events. Con-
sequences include removal from
the area, since City of Pickering
staff would be trained to do so. If
offenders don’t comply, the police
could get involved. They could also
face a two-year ban from all City of
Pickering facilities.
Coun. McLean explained 2.2 mil-
lion Canadian children between
the ages of nine and 14 play orga-
nized sports outside of school, but
three quarters drop out before they
turn 13. He said kids should be-
come involved in sports at this age
because they learn sportsmanship,
teamwork and get their foundation
for their adult lives. He explained
there’s too much focus on winning
as over-zealous coaches and par-
ents can become embarrassing.
“They go into the locker room
afterward and they’re embarrassed
by the actions of their parents,” he
said. Coun. McLean mentioned an
occurrence last week at a Pickering
under-eight soccer tournament.
One player’s mother berated a 14-
year-old game official at the end
of the game (and her son’s team
had won), and when the referee’s
dad defended his daughter, police
said she punched him in the face.
A police officer tried to arrest the
woman, but she dug her nails into
him. After the husband became in-
volved, both were arrested for vari-
ous assault charges, and her child’s
team withdrew from the tourna-
ment. Coun. McLean was happy the
referee chose to continue with her
job.
The Pickering Soccer Club (PSC)
supports True Sport, as well as the
zero-tolerance policy. Shelly Augus-
tin, business manager of PSC, ex-
plained soccer is a passionate game,
but said the new policy is “not just
about soccer. It’s about all sports.
She believes a zero-tolerance
policy will be beneficial for referees,
coaches and players.

Passion for work can make
a difference in your life
O ne of the things that inspires
me the most in my job is speak-
ing to those rare people who
truly love theirs.
When you think about it, there is
always something to complain about:
the traffic, the grumpy co-worker, the
demanding boss, the client who just
won’t stop changing his mind. In every
job, there is something.
And we are all guilty of doing it. Take
a quick survey of 10 people in your
workplace and I guarantee you will
find more complainers than enthusi-
asts.
A friend of mine has a theory: if you
are happy at your job for 15 per cent of
the time, you are doing well.
I have a theory of my own: if you are
unhappy in your job for 85 per cent of
the time, it is time to find a new job.
While it is perfectly natural to ques-
tion some aspects of the job, I be-
lieve chronic complaining can lead to
chronic unhappiness that seeps into
other areas of life.
So last week I was pleased to speak
to some young entrepreneurs. Entre-
preneurs tend to have great passion for
what they do.
They have to, I think, to get through
the rough start-up years.
But young entrepreneurs are a spe-
cial breed.
They have been given a chance
to make their dream come true and
they’re optimistic that passion can
breed success. It is a creed we should
all live by.
So here’s a story to inspire you:
Sixteen-year old Blair Cunningham
spends his summer days collecting
empty wine, beer, and liquor bottles
from his neighbours and returning
them to the beer store for a refund. His
company, Returns are Us, keeps half
the refund, while half goes to the cli-
ent.
Many teenagers, I think, would com-
plain about the burden of spending
summer vacation lugging around emp-
ties from other people’s parties just to
make a couple of bucks. But not Blair.
He sees it as an opportunity to take
advantage of a new Ontario regulation
while making a difference to the envi-
ronment by recycling.
“I’m learning so many things,” he
says. “Really enjoying it.”
How refreshing.

LETTER TO THE EDITOR
Abuse of referees
shouldn’t be tolerated
Canada’s hosting of the FIFA Under-20 World Cup of Soc-
cer should have been a great catalyst here for this sport.
Although it was a great event by most accounts, it was
marred near the end by violence from an outraged Chilean squad
that wanted revenge against a referee players felt cost them the
match.
Apparently that same fervor marred a seven- and eight-year-
old rep soccer tournament held recently in Pickering. A Toronto
soccer mom and her husband face criminal charges after a
confrontation with a 14-year-old female referee resulted in a
melee. While the couple has only been charged, it was clear
from numerous witness accounts that it started when a woman
confronted the teen ref in a verbally offensive manner after the
game. When the dust had settled police laid charges which
included assault police, assault and resisting arrest. Not the
highlight one wants for a children’s tournament.
Parents need to remember that teen referees are learning
the game as well. They are going to make mistakes just as these
young players will, even those at the rep level. Many teens are
still dealing with confidence and self-esteem issues. They want
to do the best to their abilities but it’s made difficult when adult
men and women are screaming at them for calls made and
calls missed. It also sends a horrible message to these seven-
year-old soccer players about sportsmanship and respect.
While this level of abuse may be an isolated incident, all
parents should take stock of their words and actions at any
sporting event. That couple charged wouldn’t allow an adult
to verbally attack their child, so why do they think it’s accept-
able to confront a young person just because they are wearing
a ref’s jersey?
Soccer is a wonderful sport that is played in Durham by
thousands of kids, teens and adults, but there is a real shortage
of experienced adult referees. And it’s easy to see why teenage
referees often quit. There’s no excuse for verbal or physical as-
sault and it’s refreshing to see Pickering politician Bill McLean
introduce a zero tolerance policy for all sports. Under his pro-
posal punishments could include a two-year ban from playing
at any sporting venues in the municipality. It’s something all
municipalities should consider.
Story just reinforces local homophobia
To the editor:
Re: Gay travel agency prompts man to pull his son from high
school, July 18.
It’s great to hear coverage of another great example of ho-
mophobia in Durham Region. Places like Oshawa-Courtice
struggle with being considered progressive because of the crop
of homophobes that grow-up/live here.
One interesting idea to ponder is why is it every time someone
says something racist or homophobic, the offending person says
something like, “I have no problem with gay or lesbian people.”
Try calling someone a racist after they say something racist and
I’m willing to bet the racist will be up in arms over the undesir-
able label. It’s quite clear this is not a gay trip, there will be no gay
propaganda and even if there was a pride parade flag in the win-
dow driving the students to the airport -- what difference would
it make? Straight-based companies can’t make all the money!
Lastly, it’s a shame Mr. Budgell’s son agrees with his father. He
seems well on his way to being just as intolerant as his father. I
wonder how Mr. Budgell and his son would react if there were
any gay people/teachers/administrators at the new school?
I am willing to bet there are a few! We seem to be everywhere
these days. Gee, that propaganda must be working!

Guns stolen
from home
DURHAM — Police are asking the
public for help in tracking down five
guns that were stolen during a home
invasion in Courtice earlier this week.
Police say two safes were stolen from
a home on Trulls Road, near George
Reynolds Drive, sometime between
9:30 p.m. on Monday and 11 a.m. on
Tuesday.
One of the safes contained five fire-
arms -- a .22-calibre Ruger handgun,
a .30-06 calibre Remington rifle, a .12
gauge Mossberg shotgun, a .22-calibre
Squires Bingham rifle, and a .22-cali-
bre Browning rifle.
Investigators believe the firearms
had been stored properly and had been
registered.
Anyone with information related to
this incident is asked to contact Detec-
tive Robert Findlay at 905-579-1520
ext. 1650.
Anonymous calls can also be made
through Durham Regional Crime Stop-
pers at 1-800-222-8477.

RWANDA — Our house in Rwanda doesn’t have
an Internet connection or a television. There’s only
one channel anyway and it’s TV Rwanda. It’s actu-
ally not that bad. They don’t often broadcast any-
thing I’d watch but they do have the classic Ninja
Turtles cartoon on Saturday mornings. In French.
But, without the normal entertainment gadgets
we would have in Canada, the interns
have to come up with other things to
do to pass the time.
We spend our days working at vari-
ous media outlets in Kigali – newspa-
pers the New Times and Grand Lac
Hebdo, state-run Radio Rwanda and
TV Rwanda, and a small documentary
operation called Internews.
As part of the Rwanda Initiative, we
are here to help build media capac-
ity in the country after the media was
used to spread hate and encourage killing during
the 1994 genocide.
While the days are busy, evenings and weekends
are completely free for us. And the evenings are
long with the sun setting every day at 6 p.m. With-
out prime-time television, we entertain ourselves
by reading and chatting about the day’s events.
For the first few nights, we played card games like
Crazy Eights. Since then, we’ve learned a Rwandan
game that’s similar to hearts or euchre.
We also learned how to play a Rwandan game
that we dubbed ‘Eating Cows’. It’s kind of compli-
cated but it’s played on a board with 32 holes and
the objective is to get all the beads (or cows) on
your side. After learning how to play, I think every-
one wants to buy it.
The weekends are for exploring the four corners
of Rwanda. The country is becoming famous for
tourists interested in getting back to nature. Besides
visiting museums and genocide
memorials, Rwanda has incredible
eco-tourism adventures. I saw gi-
raffes, hippos, baboons, zebras and
impalas during a one-day safari at
Akagera National Park.
The next day, I visited Rwanda’s
famous mountain gorillas. I hiked
uphill through forests and bushes
for two hours, right to their home
and watched them eat and play.
I was close enough to touch
them. They walked by within a foot of where I
stood. I almost got hit by one falling down with a
tree. It was amazing. You’ll probably read this story
once but I’ll be talking about the gorillas for the rest
of my life.
Andrew Ng is a Pickering resident working in
Rwanda this summer as a media intern through
the Rwanda Initiative. You can find out more
about the initiative at www.rwandainitiative.ca.
Mr. Ng will file weekly stories to the News Adver-
tiser about his experiences.

Convicted trio tried
to steal marijuana plants
By Mary Riley
Special to the News Advertiser
DURHAM — A Superior Court judge
showed little sympathy on Friday for three
men who dressed as police officers while
trying to rip off a marijuana grow-op near
Head Lake in 2003.
Ontario Superior Court Justice Bruce
Glass sentenced Jody Churchill, 30, and Gar-
field Lefort, 32, both of Port Perry and Phillip
Weddel, 34, formerly of Uxbridge, each to 90
days in jail.
The sentencing took place in court in
Whitby.
The men pleaded guilty in June to charges
of unauthorized possession of a firearm,
possession of a controlled substance and
impersonating a police officer.
In June, the Crown had asked for jail terms
and fines for all three men.
The trio have been under strict bail condi-
tions since they were arrested almost four
years ago.
He noted the three men were among six
who, dressed as police officers, tried to steal
as many of the 18,000 plants as possible
from a marijuana grow operation west of
Norland.
The judge invited the men to speak to
the court. All three described the four years
under bail conditions as “long and difficult.”
Justice Glass noted the defence counsels’
request to consider the long period the men
were under “onerous” bail conditions as fac-
tors in his decision.
But, he said it was not “due to the conduct
of the Crown or the court” that they were
under such conditions for so long.
He noted that while the process was
lengthy, the men were not jailed during that
time.
In handing down the sentences, the judge
said he was “not going to bring the justice
system into disrepute” by allowing the men
to serve their time on weekends.
“The court is not prepared to send the
message that the cost of doing business (re-
lating to drug operations) is modest.
“These are serious charges. The fact that
there were guns and impersonating police
officers... could have created a dangerous
situation for the owners of the property and
the police.”
Justice Glass did say the three were not as
seriously involved in the incident as others.
In addition, each man was fined $8,000
and given 12 months to pay, commencing
from Friday’s date.
The judge said two others accused in con-
nection with the incident, Gordon Churchill,
53, of Port Perry, and Shane Prince, 35, of
Oshawa, have also pleaded guilty to several
charges and will be sentenced on Dec. 14.
A sixth accused, Nick Churchill, 33, of Fe-
nelon Falls, faces nine charges. A trial date
has not yet been set.

Lack of rain is bad
news for farmers
DURHAM — After 53 years in the farming
business, Fred Obrist knows just how unpre-
dictable the weather can be.
“We had some rain about seven days
ago,” he says. “About an inch, an inch and a
quarter. Maybe we’ll get some next week. I
hope.”
The long dry spell that has characterized
part of the spring and much of the summer
has left farmers in the area shaking their
heads – and hoping rain will come this Au-
gust.
Although it will be too late to save the
sweet corn crops – “we probably won’t be
able to harvest more than 25 per cent” – Mr.
Obrist is thinking about his apples.
With two large apple orchards on his 102-
acre property in Orono, apples are the main-
stay of the Obrist family business. Some in
the southern orchard were damaged earlier
this year by a hailstorm that passed through,
but Mr. Obrist is expecting a beautiful crop
from the rest.
“A little rain would help, but it looks like
we will have a very good apple crop,” he
said.
With his store – Fred’s Fruit Market – open
for business year round, Mr. Obrist depends
on a good season that will sustain his busi-
ness for the entire year.
“It’s hard,” he says of the unpredictable
weather. “It hasn’t been easy these last few
years. Last year, we had so much rain, this
year not enough.”
Across the region in Pickering, Paul Pistrit-
to has the same concerns.
“It’s mainly the dryness,” he said. “It’s af-
fecting the growth of green crops.”
He says many of the bigger farms are set-
ting up irrigation systems – that replace or
supplement rainfall with water from another
source – but smaller producers can’t afford
the luxury.
A vegetable farmer with 36 years of expe-
rience, Mr. Pistritto says he is cutting down
on production in his 25-acre farm. As he
nears retirement, he is moving away from
the unpredictability of growing tomatoes
and lettuce and is instead focusing more of
his attention on plants in his greenhouse.
“They are not as affected by the weather,”
he said.
While rain has been scare, there’s no lawn
watering ban in effect in Durham Region,
however, the odd-even watering bylaw is, ac-
cording to the Region’s works department.
More locally, municipalities are doing
what they can to help residents beat the
heat.
Swimming pools in Ajax are being kept
open longer during the heat wave.
There are indoor pools at the Ajax Com-
munity Centre, on Centennial Road, and
the McLean Community Centre, on Magill
Drive. There’s also the Outdoor Memorial
Pool, next to the Town hall at Harwood Av-
enue and Kings Crescent. There are also
outdoor splash pads, one at Rotary Park, on
Lake Driveway West at Parkes Drive, and at
the MCC. There’s also a wading pool at Ex-
eter Park. Also, residents needing to cool off
can visit any of the three library branches or
the community centres. They can also cool
off in the Town Hall.
All Pickering residents have the opportu-
nity to beat the heat for free at the recreation
complex’s cooling centre.
“The building is open to anyone who just
wants to come in. If they choose to do things
or not, it doesn’t matter. We encourage peo-
ple just to lull around,” said Sharon Milton,
acting culture and recreation division head.
The cooling centre is air conditioned, with

She explained staff make sure kids using
City-run programs are not out for long peri-
ods of time and drink plenty of water. Also,
the health and safety co-ordinator monitors
the temperature each day and informs staff
on the precautions they should take to stay
safe in the heat, such as wearing hats or tak-
ing breaks more often. They also look out
for seniors. “We have a lot of elderly people
around us,” Ms. Milton said. “We encourage
them to come in to the cooling centre.” She
added it’s a nice break on the way over to the
Pickering Town Centre.
Public swimming hours have been ex-
tended, and is now available from 1 to 4
p.m. and 7 to 10 p.m. Call 905-683-6582 for

pendent on the temperature.

ers and Watermains Construction Ltd. said
the toughest part of being in the sun while
working construction is wearing the hard
hat.
“It keeps all the heat right on top of your
head and you’re just sweating all day, and
your hair’s wet all day. It just gets sticky.”
He mentioned the safety vest is also hot, but
he just deals with it and takes breaks when
needed.
Mr. Marchese drinks between 10 and 15
bottles of water throughout the 10 hours of
the day he spends in the sun.
Police Constables Mike Brown and Jeff
Tucker ride their bikes around Pickering
and Ajax each day, patrolling parks and
green spaces. Const. Brown said Tuesday,
for example, they rode along the waterfront
for four hours.
“(We just try) to take in a lot of water and
try to stay in a nice cool, breezy area, but
we tend to ride everywhere,” Const. Brown
said.
Const. Tucker said the toughest part is
forcing themselves to get on the bikes when
they know how hot it is.
“But, we’ve got a daily routine. We get
ourselves ready at the station, get our bikes
ready and once we’re in the van on our way
out to the trails, it’s easier after that. We’re
committed to getting on the bikes and get-
ting out in the parks.”
Metroland photographer AJ Groen de-
scribed shooting a press conference in a
parking lot in the mid-afternoon as “swel-
tering.”
He makes sure to wear white, light shirts
and a hat, and drinks plenty of water. Since
he knows there’s nothing he can do about
the actual temperature, he suggests simply
coping with it.
“If you allow it to get you, it’s going to,” he
said.

Pickering residents among those
affected as finance employees
transferred as part of plan
to streamline tax system
By Izabela Jaroszynski
ijaroszynski@durhamregion.com
DURHAM — More than 300 employees in Os-
hawa, Whitby and Pickering will soon face job
transfers and relocation outside of the region.
The federal government announced on Tues-
day that all employees from the Ontario Ministry
of Finance who work in corporate taxation will
be transferred to work at the Canada Revenue
Agency (CRA) in April 2008.
The news, which mainly affects hundreds of
employees that currently work at the Michael
Starr building in downtown Oshawa, is the result
of a joint agreement between the federal and pro-
vincial governments to streamline the tax system
for businesses. The goal is to save corporations
time and money by reducing red tape, the govern-
ment says.
But, Karrie Ouchas, president of the Ontario
Public Service Employees Union local 340, says
the move is devastating for the city. Although all
affected tax auditors will receive job offers from
the CRA and administration office workers will
be reassigned, none of the new positions will be
located within the community.
“Oshawa is already set to lose thousands of
auto industry jobs. This is a significant hit that
our community cannot afford,” added Patty Rout,
the first vice-president of OPSEU and an Oshawa
resident.
Auditing staff, some middle management and
some upper management will be offered posi-
tions within CRA. At this time, office administra-
tion staff will not be offered positions. There is
a commitment by the bargaining unit of OPSEU
to ensure that all affected members will be reas-
signed to other Ontario public service positions.
For a lot of downtown businesses -- that rely on
the lunchtime crowd or the after-work shoppers --
the loss of these employees is a devastating blow.
Riyaz Jeraj, owner of the Great Canadian Bagel
across the street from the Michael Starr building,
says it is very bad news for him.
“If they lose 300 or 350 employees, we lose our
customers. Most of my customers are from there,”
he said. Mr. Jeraj has been at the downtown Os-
hawa location for four years but says he is thinking
of moving the franchise to Courtice or Bowman-
ville.
Giacomo Bruno, owner of Isabella’s Chocolate
Cafe, has been one of the local champions of a re-
newed downtown. He says that although the loss
of these employees will mean a drop in lunchtime
business, he doesn’t believe it will derail the ef-
forts to energize the downtown.
“Ideally, we want people choosing to come
downtown from all of Oshawa, from all of Dur-
ham, from all of Ontario,” he said.
“This is not a good thing, obviously, but we
need to energize the downtown in the evening
and on weekends, too.”

• 100: tax auditors
• 170: office administration staff

Creating a bathroom safe
for kids is child’s play
(NC)-According to Ramsin Khachi, To-
ronto-based designer/builder, the follow-
ing tips will help make bathrooms safe
playgrounds for every family.
. Ensure every tap, from the tub to the
vanity sink, is fitted with scald guard
technology, like Delta’s Grail bathroom
collection.
. Consider designing the vanity kick plate
to pull out and act as a step stool for
a young child - this ensures the right
height at every age.
. Installing adjustable hand showers
makes it easier and more fun for kids to
get clean, and will be comfortable for
the whole family.
. Accessorize with aged pewter, stainless
steel or graphite. These finishes not only
look great but make cleaning easy as
they do not show fingerprints.
. Keep the décor simple and accent the
room with kids’ creative artwork and
bright towel and curtain colours. Add a
little whimsy by using fun cabinet pulls.

Anti-incinerator
g roup fuming
over delay
By Jennifer Stone
jstone@durhamregion.com
DURHAM — Some members
of a group which has vocally op-
posed construction of a garbage
incinerator in Clarington were
fuming Monday over a decision
to defer an anticipated report to
September.
Reports from two consultants
were included on a draft agenda
for Monday’s meeting, but did
not appear on the final agenda --
a decision for which Clarington’s
CAO Franklin Wu took responsi-
bility.
The report is now expected to
be on the first General Purpose
and Administration Committee
agenda in September.
Some say they were led to
believe the report -- Clarington’s
independent peer review of work
done so far in the Environmental
Assessment process -- had been
pulled from the agenda to allow
the Region time to give input.
“If we’re going to let the Re-
gion ‘manage’ the findings of
our studies ... how independent
is that?” asked Orono resident
Linda Gasser.
Her sentiment was shared
by another Orono resident, Jim
Richards.
“You have completely negated
the purpose of why we needed
an independent review,” said Mr.
Richards, suggesting the deci-
sion was influenced by Regional
Chairman Roger Anderson.
Mayor Jim Abernethy said
the report hadn’t actually been
“pulled” from the agenda, since
it had only appeared on the draft
document.
But that draft was “being distrib-
uted for public consumption,”
said Mr. Richards, noting he had
also received a letter, dated July
11, from the Municipality, indi-
cating the report would be dealt
with Monday.
“Many of us planned our va-
cations around this,” said New-
castle resident Wendy Bracken.
“Today was our day to hear
our peer review studies ... Please
show respect for those of us who
care to be involved with this pro-
cess.”
But, removing the consultants’
reports from the agenda was en-
tirely his own decision, said Mr.
Wu.
Any report to go on the agen-
da must be on his desk by 4:30
p.m. on the Tuesday preceding a
council meeting.
“I did not receive the report
until Wednesday morning. That
gave me very little time to go
through the report and put my
signature on it. I was not com-
fortable with that,” said Mr. Wu.
There was also a need for fur-
ther information from the Re-
gion, before the report could
be complete, he said, noting he
attended the meeting between
consultants and the Region last
week “to ensure there was no
undue influence on the consul-
tant for what we are supposed to
do.
“I made that decision alone,
without any input from elected
officials.”

Tim Harriman stops
in Durham for family visit
By Keith Gilligan
kgilligan@durhamregion.com
DURHAM — Tim Harriman is living proof of the
adage about life handing you lemons, you make
lemonade.
The 19-year-old Alberta resident has turned
his experience as a cancer survivor into a public
awareness and fundraising campaign.
He’s cycling across Canada to raise awareness of
the affects of cancer on children. His two big aims
are to have September recognized as Childhood
Cancer Awareness Month and to raise $100,000
for the Childhood Cancer Foundation. To date,
he’s raised about $55,000.
The ride is being done to bring “awareness of
the impacts cancer has on young people. I decid-
ed to bike across Canada,” he says, noting about
10,000 children in Canada are fighting cancer.
Mr. Harriman made a stopover in Ajax recently,
spending time with family.
Travelling with him on his trek are parents Jerry
and Heather.
He was 14 when diagnosed with a form of leu-
kemia. Over the next three years, he underwent
chemotherapy and radiation. At the time he was
diagnosed, doctors said 97 per cent of his blood
cells were cancerous.
His treatment ended in May of 2005. He spent
two years planning the tour, beginning three
weeks after his treatment ended.
During the tour, he’s met with children with
cancer, collecting messages and artwork they’ve
done, which he wants to present to the Prime
Minister.
“I spend a lot of time with kids and collect their
messages and art. I spend a lot of time one-on-
one,” Mr. Harriman says.
The children are “impressed with how I coped.
How I coped with it, I was able to keep in touch
with friends,” he notes.
Children ask “very mature questions. We don’t
even talk about the cancer treatment. We try to
take the focus off that. We try to maintain a nor-
mal live,” he states.
The reception he’s received “has been getting
better and better” as he’s moved across the coun-
try.
He rides about 175 kilometres a day and the
tour is on about day 50 of the 84-day ride.
It began on June 3 in Victoria and will go until
Aug. 24, when they reach St. John’s, Newfound-
land. The entire trip is 7,738 kilometres.
He’s taken a year off from college, where he’s
studying youth counselling. “It’s a passion of
mine.”
When diagnosed, “there were a lot of questions
that go through your mind, especially someone so
young. Why me, I’m so young?” he says. “I was a
hockey player at the time. I couldn’t play hockey
again. That was a hard hit. It affects the family.”

DURHAM — The blues will echo
through downtown Oshawa when
three top blues musicians wrap up the
free Main Event at the Oshawa Jazz and
Blues Festival on Aug. 11.
Whitby’s Jack de Keyzer and Big
Daddy G will be joined by Danny
Marks, of Toronto, for the Blues Revue.
And look for a performance by Down-
child singer Chuck Jackson.
De Keyzer plays blues, jazz, r and
b and swing. A guitarist, singer and
songwriter, he won a JUNO in 2003.
He’s worked with King Biscuit Boy, Etta
James and Blue Rodeo and his guitar
work is featured on hundreds of re-
cordings. He plays large and small ven-
ues throughout Canada and around
the world. He’s won eight Maple Blues
awards. He also produces albums
for other artists. His latest CD, ‘Blues
Thing’, is being released this summer.
Big Daddy G (Dave Glover and har-
monica player Tortoise Blue) have
produced several CDs, including Blue
Sound and Topless, nominated for a
JUNO award for best blues record-
ing. Another CD is in the works, the
first studio album in seven years. Big
Daddy G plays music festivals through-
out Canada and once opened for blues
icon BB King at two Toronto-area con-
certs.
De Keyzer and Big Daddy G played
the first Oshawa Jazz and Blues Festi-
val.
The Blues Revue goes at 9 p.m. at
the Main Event in Memorial Park on
Simcoe Street South, Oshawa.

at Parkwood
DURHAM — Fashions from the 1920s
jazz age will be featured in a special pro-
gram at Parkwood Estate on Aug. 7, dur-
ing the Oshawa Jazz and Blues Festival.
Sarah Walker and Diane Reid of Fash-
ion History Productions will talk about
fashion trends of the 1920s and social his-
tory of the time. The age was a liberating
one in terms of fashion, with corsets gone,
hemlines shortened and the Charleston
all the rage. Women smoked and drank
in public and even cut their hair short.
Garden parties, with jazz music, lasted
well into the night and Parkwood provid-
ed an ideal setting for summer evening
parties in the Roaring Twenties.
Tickets for the 7:30 p.m. program are
$20 per person. Advanced purchase is
required, so call 905-433-4311. Parkwood

‘Wild crowd’ in Rio
rattles Pickering
sprinter at start
of men’s 100m final
By Al Rivett
arivett@durhamregion.com
PICKERING — The Pan Am
Games for Pickering’s Anson
Henry were, at turns, highly ex-
hilarating and maddeningly frus-
trating.
Henry produced his second Pan
Am medal, a silver in the men’s
4-x-100-metre relay, but the inter-
national competition in Rio de Ja-
neiro could have yielded another
medal in the men’s 100 metres
if not for what he terms a “huge
mistake” that had the net effect of
leaving him in eighth place in the
final.
He’s determined not to make
that error again when he runs for
Canada at the upcoming IAAF
World Outdoor Track and Field
Championships in Osaka, Japan
later this month.
In an e-mail interview with the
News Advertiser, Henry, 28, de-
scribes the raucous atmosphere
on the starting blocks just prior to
the 100-metre final.
“I was very upset with how the
100 metres went because of a huge
mistake I made at the start of the
race. The crowd in Rio was kinda
wild, especially when there were
Brazilian athletes in the competi-
tion, and at the beginning of the
100m final, the crowd refused to
be quiet.
“The starters kept standing us
up, athletes kept putting their
hands up, I must have got up at
least five times. But, when the race
actually did go, the starter let off a
very, very quick gun, that I wasn’t
ready for at all. I got left at the start
because of a really, really bad reac-
tion. Other athletes were having
the same issue and, unfortunately,
I was one of those who let it inter-
fere with my race.
“It was kind of a messed-up situ-
ation, but when it comes down to
it, it was still my fault, and I should
have been prepared to handle a
situation like that. Going through
the rounds, I felt really easy, and
felt like I would definitely medal in
the final but, unfortunately, I had
that problem, and wasn’t able to
recover from it. In the 100 metres,
little mistakes can cost you the
race. Well, that was a huge mis-
take, and I left myself no chance
after that.”
The medal for Henry in the 4-x-
100-metre relay with teammates
Richard Adu-Bobie of Ottawa,
Jared Connaughton of New Haven,
P.E.I., and Brian Barnett of Ed-
monton made up for the miscue
in the 100 metres. The Canadians
finished just behind the Brazilians,
but ahead of the favoured Ameri-
cans, who the Canucks just edged
for silver.
The silver is added to a bronze
Henry won in the 100 metres at
the 2003 Pan Am Games in Santo
Domingo, Dominican Republic.
“I was pretty pleased with the
relay medal. After the 100 metres,
I was pretty upset about how that
resulted, so walking out of here
with the silver medal in the relay
definitely helped me to feel like
there was still some positivity
coming out of the trip.”
Henry says he expected to have
a positive effect on the outcome of
the race while carrying the baton
for Canada on the second leg of
the relay, and that’s exactly how it
went down.
“I knew here that with making
the final in the 100m, I was one of
the faster men in the whole meet,
so I expected to handle anybody
on the second leg with no problem.
It went just like that, and we were
well ahead after my exchange, and
even ahead going into the last ex-
change, but Brazil had the better
exchange at the end, and because
of that were able to hold us off
and get the gold. Gold would have
been nice, and was what we were
expecting since we had the fastest
time going into the final, but we
ended up with the silver. Can’t be
too upset about that, though.”
Henry says he’s looking forward
to the chance to run in another
world championship for Canada
in Japan. In addition to the 4-x-
100-metre relay, he’ll also compete
in the 100 metres - determined to
learn from his Rio gaffe.
“I will be sure to keep myself
from making the same mistake I
did at Pan Ams,” he says.
‘Huge mistake’ kept Henry
from another Pan Am medal
Final lacrosse
series could
be long one
Game 2 between Rock
and Woodies goes
Sunday in Pickering
By Al Rivett
arivett@durhamregion.com
DURHAM — Coming off a semi-
final series that took the minimum
number of games to complete, the
head coach of the Ajax-Pickering
Rock hopes a similar scenario is
played out again in the final series.
But, Paul St. John admits sweep-
ing the Owen Sound Woodsmen,
aka the Woodies, in the Ontario La-
crosse Association best-of-five se-
nior ‘B’ championship series might
be a tad more difficult.
In fact, the coach says it may turn
into a long series before an Ontario
champion is declared and the Clare
Levack Trophy hoisted.
“I think Game 1 (played in Owen
Sound on Thursday night, after the
News Advertiser’s press deadline) will
reveal a lot,” says St. John. “I think it
will probably go the distance, four or
five games, not that I don’t think we
can’t sweep these guys. But, they’re
thinking they can sweep us, too.”
The Rock advanced to the On-
tario final after posting a three-game
sweep of the Mohawk Stars in the
best-of-five semifinal; the Woods-
men -- which won three straight
OLA senior ‘B’ titles from 2001 to
2003 -- did the same to the Brooklin
Merchants in their semifinal series.
St. John points out the Rock and
the Woodsmen couldn’t be more
dissimilar in their approaches to
the game: The Rock rely on a bal-
anced offensive and defensive set,
with their foundation being the goal-
tending tandem of Steve Dietrich
(expected to star Game 1 Thursday)
and Mike Miron (getting the start
Game 2 Sunday in Pickering) to keep
goals against to a minimum.
Conversely, the Woodies like to
play a wide-open offensive game.
Goaltending, he predicts, will be
a big plus for the Rock as Miron and
Dietrich have shown they’re big-
time, money ball-stoppers thus far
in the playoffs.
“Both have played in the pros and
both have played in high-pressure
games,” says St. John. “They know
how to win. If we play the right type
of defence in front of them, allow-
ing them to see the ball, we know
they’re going to stop 90 per cent of
the shots.”
Game 2 of the series is at the
Pickering Recreation Complex Sun-
day at 7 p.m.

Pickering Olympian and sprinter Anson Henry returned from the 2007 Pan
Am Games in Rio de Janeiro with a silver medal earned as a member of
Canada’s men’s 4-x-100-metre relay team. Excessive crowd noise while in the
starting blocks, however, caused him to lose concentration in the men’s 100-
metre final, costing him a chance at another medal.
‘The crowd in Rio was kinda
wild, especially when there
were Brazilian athletes in the
competition...’
