Home My WebLink AboutNA2004_09_22 TRUSTEES YET AGAIN REJECT RE-VISITING POLICY By Mike Ruta Staff Writer DURHAM – The public school board says its controversial busing policy is “flexible,” able to address safety con- cerns and make exceptions on com- passionate grounds. While trustees on Monday once again rejected re-opening it, some par- ents say they will keep pressing the board to change the five-month-old policy. At last count it was three times trust- ees have considered revisiting the transportation policy. It eliminated surplus seating, used by hundreds of Durham students to get a bus ride to school. Parents have decried the lack of consultation, since the board re- laxed the rules of procedure to approve the policy on the spot in April instead of at a subsequent meeting. Once again at the Durham Dis- trict School Board meeting, trustees who wanted to have a second look at the policy narrowly missed the op- portunity after a 7-4 vote to set aside the board’s procedural bylaws went against them. Eight votes, two thirds of the board, was required since a policy cannot be revisited until six months after it is passed. Trustees met on Sept. 9 and the ad hoc transportation committee was to have brought back a report Monday. Several parents were in the gallery to hear discussion on the issue, but Os- hawa Trustee Susan Shetler merely said trustees had met and “no recom- mendations came from that evening.” Oshawa parent Rozalyn Werner-Arce PICKERING – It was another suc- cessful year for the annual Terry Fox Run in Pickering. “The run was awesome,” said Kevin Cahill, who chaired the run for the first time this year after being a part of the committee for years. The total money raised as of Monday was more than $102,000. “We think it’s going to be more than that,” Mr. Cahill said. “We still have some irons in the fire.” They are still waiting on some online pledges and participants have until Oct. 16 to bring their pledges to any Canadian bank or mail them to the provincial office. After that they can only be mailed to the provincial office. More than 200 participants came out to the Pickering Recreation Complex Sunday morning to help keep Terry Fox’s dream alive. Mr. Cahill said there was a cross sec- tion of participants running, walking and biking in the event. There were moms pushing strollers and older women out for a leisurely walk. “There was fabulous weather and everyone was smiling,” he said. “A fun day was had by all.” Participants had a chance to see Parents vow to continue bus fight The Pickering ??

Today we look at the controversies surrounding the nuclear systems, particularly here in Durham Region. By Keith Gilligan Staff Writer DURHAM – Nuclear power produces more than 40 per cent of the electric- ity used in Ontario and more than it’s share of controversy. It’s also very expensive, given the history of the Pickering and Darlington stations. But, with Ontario so reliant on nu- clear power, the splitting of atoms will continue for some time. And, with the Province holding firm to shutting coal plants by 2007, nuclear will be part of the energy mix for quite some time. Given the polarized opinions on United Way reaches for $1 .7 million in Pickering area Annual campaign raises funds to help one-third of community residents By Sabrina Albis Special to the News Advertiser DURHAM - With cake-cutting, danc- ing and singing, the United Way of Ajax-Pickering-Uxbridge kicked off its 2004 fund-raising campaign Saturday, with the goal of raising $1.7 million. “We usually have a run, but this year we decided to take a different approach and do a big show with en- tertainment,” said Jaime Scanlan, com- munications and community invest- ment co-ordinator, of the festivities at the Pickering Town Centre. On a stage set with a giant United Way flag, the national anthem was sung by Ajax High School group The Ethnocats. “United Way has played a significant role in our community,” Pat O’Brien, campaign chairman, told the crowd. “It focuses on improving local neigh- bourhoods. It funds Meals on Wheels, counselling for abused families, food drives and so much more. All its funds stay in the community. “My challenge for you is to be in- volved in funding. At work or school, make your donation to support your community. You will be helping your neighbours, colleagues and maybe even your family.” Mr. O’Brien detailed how United Way reaches out to the public, noting YOUTH IS SERVED WITH GRATITUDE AJ. Groen / News Advertiser photo AJAX – The Durham Tamil Association held a night dedicated to youth on Saturday, recognizing the good work so many do in Ajax and Pickering and across Durham Region as a whole.

Used under License. nuclear energy, wanting to build a new facility can be a lengthy process. How- ever, Atomic Energy of Canada Limited (AECL) says it can get one of its new reactors up and operating within 48 months of signing a contract. It also guarantees the work will be finished on time. As an example, the four reactors at the Darlington plant took more than a decade to complete, at a final cost of about $14.5 billion, or double the origi- nal estimate of $7.4 billion. And then there is Pickering, with cost overruns and delays continuously built into the refurbishment of the ‘A’- side reactors. Originally estimated to cost about $900 million to fix all four reactors, the project now carries a price tag of ap- proximately $2.5 billion, with the final tally expected to be in the $3-billion to $4-billion range. The work was also expected to take two years to complete, but that was four years ago. Since then, Unit 4 is online and performing well. Work is continuing on Unit 1 and it should be finished by the end of next year. No decision has been made whether to restart units 2 and 3. Despite this track record, Claring- ton Mayor John Mutton supports more nuclear reactors next to the Darlington plant. His support seems to have grown since the International Thermonuclear Experimental Reactor (ITER) project proposal for Clarington fell through. “I met with the (provincial energy) minister, senior staff with the ministry and the president of the AECL and the CNSC, regarding new reactors in Clarington. We’re fully supportive of it. An announcement will be made, hope- fully, in the fall,” Mayor Mutton says. “More base load is needed in the east of the GTA. “There’s only one choice and that’s Clarington. People want to understand, it’s not like Pickering and the cost over- runs.” Pickering is what nuclear opponents point to when they say the industry can’t be cost efficient and timely. The AECL has a new reactor, the Advanced Candu Reactor, which can produce 700 megawatts of electricity, and is working on one that could gen- erate 1,000 mw. The company told Mayor Mutton it would guarantee the reactors can be built on time and on budget. That’s something “for the AECL to put itself on the line” with those guarantees, he adds. “They will guarantee the price and time of delivery. That takes the question of cost overruns out of the picture.” Any promise from or about the qual- ity of the nuclear industry doesn’t wash with David Martin of Greenpeace Can- ada. “The government is throwing good money after bad,” he says, looking to Pickering. Mr. Martin points to the costs and delays with the Pickering restart as evi- dence nuclear isn’t the answer. “There’s no business on Earth that could survive with that kind of cost overrun. “The amount of money hemorrhag- ing from nuclear power is astronomi- cal.” The “billions” being spent on restart- ing Pickering ‘A’ could have been used on green energy options, Mr. Martin notes. “It’s no accident Ontario has fallen so far behind the world in the develop- ment of wind energy,” he says. “What we’re talking about is green power, new sources. The amount we’ve done in the last few years is negligible.” An Uxbridge resident, Mr. Martin was one of the founders of Durham Nuclear Awareness, a vocal and ardent opponent of nuclear power. Not sur- prisingly, he prefers shutting nuclear stations and replacing them with green energy options. The Ontario government made a “good decision to phase out coal, but they haven’t dealt with nu- clear power. It’s extremely unre- liable and very expensive, Mr. Martin states. The reactors are “in effect they’re phasing themselves out as they get older. The problem is keeping the lights on,” he says. “We can do it. We can meet the supply needs with renewable and green energy. “There has to be a hierarchy. No. 1 is conservation and efficiency. No. 2 is green energy and renewables and finally, if we need the power and we will still need additional power, by all means, go with natural gas.” The cost to restart Pickering contin- ues to rise, he notes. He points to John Manley’s report released in March that noted the cost would be between $450 million and $600 million. “Basically in the vicinity of $500 mil- lion. In a few months, the cost has doubled.” When the restart was first proposed in 1999, the cost to restart Unit 1 was pegged at $215 million. “It’s now more than four times the cost. Four hundred per cent. What other business could stay alive” with a performance like that, he asks. Ontario Energy Minister Dwight Duncan says an announcement on more nuclear power plants will be made in the fall. “I’ve met with the mayor (Mutton) and heard his point of view. He’s an elegant advocate for his community and the jobs that are there. “Obviously, I’ve heard from the AECL (Atomic Energy of Canada Limited) on this as well,” Mr. Duncan says. “The government will be making, I wouldn’t say decisions at this point, but will be saying where nuclear is in the future mix of the province, certainly this fall.” The aim of the government’s plan is to ensure Ontario is “energy self-suf- ficient at a fair and reasonable price, with reliability. It’s been our great advantage over the years and we hope we can address what the last 10 years lost here in On- tario and we hope we can get it back on track.” Next: The opponents of nuclear power and the search for alternatives.

It helps people who are lonely and en- compasses various people. It doesn’t discriminate based on age, race or fi- nancial status. This kickoff incorpo- rates that diversity.” Entertainment for the afternoon was provided by the Home Town Cloggers dance team, the Star Launch singers and the Hummingbird and Durham Tamil Association dancers. Mr. O’Brien stressed the United Way is extremely multifaceted. “We had this kickoff to raise aware- ness in the community because we wanted people to see that United Way is an all-year-round organization. We aren’t a single charity either. We col- lect money to help other agencies. We are the one-stop centre of charitable causes.” The campaign runs until December and there are a variety of ways people can help, he added. “You can become a volunteer, help fund-raise or just donate.” Marilyn Mitchell and her volun- teers were at the kickoff to help paint faces and to support United Way. Ms. Mitchell is executive director of Girls Incorporated (Girls Inc.), a national non-profit youth organization dedi- cated to providing inspiration to girls to help them stay strong, educated and confident. “We have 38,000 volunteer (hours) and we have helped over 120 girls in the Ajax-Pickering area alone,” she said. “Without United Way’s funding we wouldn’t have our programs.” Another advocate for the United Way cause is Bob Chafe, vice-president of CAW Local 1090. “We promote United Way through workplaces and campaigns. We have programs that deal with substance abuse and other personal problems in the workplace because of United Way. We have raised over $100,000 for them through workplace donations, cam- paigns and fundraisers.” Pickering Mayor David Ryan said he is very proud of the fund-raising United Way does. “We must continue to fund United Way,” he said. “Everyone please con- tribute.” The local United Way has raised more than $20 million in the last 30 years, said Edna Klazek, the agency’s executive director. She cited motiva- tion, dedication and teamwork as keys to success. “I believe in partnership. We have partnered with Red Cross and the Pickering Town Centre to get school supplies and backpacks for kids. We handed out 5,000 backpacks across the region.” With the Community Develop- ment Council and the Durham Re- gion health department, United Way supports healthy breakfasts and snack programs in schools as well. Ms. Klazek says the kickoff is about more than just fund-raising goals. “This event raises awareness in our community and tells everyone our an- nual campaign is in action.” DURHAM REGION RECYCLES! milk & juice cartons glass jars & bottles all plastic bottles with a twist top plastic tubs & lids metal food & drink containers aerosol cans & metal paint cans cardboard & boxboard household papers & newspaper For more information on Durham Region’s Blue Box program, please phone 1-800-667-5671 or e-mail: recycling@region.durham.on.ca Visit our website at www.region.durham.on.ca An opportunity for all women and men who would never dream of getting fit.

This year’s goal is $1.7 million. said the brief response from the board was “insulting,” after parents gave up their time to attend the meeting, and given the interest in the issue. New to involvement in board issues, Ms. Werner-Arce says it’s been an eye opener. On Tuesday she sent a letter to board chairman Elizabeth Roy, stating, “the board showed a complete lack of re- spect for all the people who have taken the time to call trustees and admin- istrative staff and to those who have taken the time and effort to make a statement at the board meetings.” Ms. Werner-Arce and eight other parents huddled after the board’s deci- sion, exchanging phone numbers and vowing to continue advocating for a policy change. One of them is Scugog parent Tom Rennick, one of the exceptions made to the policy. After making his case to board staff, Mr. Rennick learned Friday his daughter had a seat on the bus. Yet he was there Monday night and plans to return whenever he can to advocate for other parents. “It’s an issue of government passing policy without public input and I’m sure there are hundreds of other local parents in my position,” he explained. Education director Craig Burch an- nounced some leeway is now being ex- ercised. Board spokeswoman Andrea Pidwerbecki said exceptions to the policy have been made, for example, in construction zones where travelling to school could be dangerous or if no sidewalks are available. “There’s always been an appeals process,” Ms. Pidwerbecki said, adding staff have investigated parents’ con- cerns. Trustees adjourned the meeting for 17 minutes after Pickering Trustee Paul Crawford challenged board chairman Elizabeth Roy’s call on how the policy could be reopened. She maintained two-thirds of trustees had to vote to suspend the procedural rules before trustees could get to the actual policy. However, Trustee Crawford said listen- ing to parent deputations on the issue at a recent meeting meant the policy was already reopened. After the break, Oshawa Trustee Mi- chael Barrett motioned that the board reconsider the policy and re-open it to make amendments, sparking applause from the gallery. Trustees were again split on the issue, and the motion on setting aside the bylaws was lost. Trustees Paul Crawford, Barrett, Gordon Baxter (Uxbridge), Steve Mar- tin (Scugog), Marilyn Crawford (Ajax), John Dolstra (Whitby) and Sherry Croteau (Pickering) voted in favour. Against setting aside the rules were trustees Roy, Susan Shetler (Oshawa), Kathleen Hopper (Oshawa) and Lisa Hill (Ajax). Board from Page A1 Board showed ‘complete lack of respect,’ says parent Drive needs food, supplies but no more clothes PICKERING - Due to an overwhelm- ing response, the drive organizers collecting supplies for the people of Grenada is asking people to hang on to clothing donations until further no- tice. Evlyn Hamlet, the Pickering resident and native Grenadian, is co-ordinating the local supply drive as part of the Grenada Hurricane Ivan Relief Organi- zation, which is working with the Con- sulate General of Grenada in Toronto. She said there has been a wonderful response to the local drive - including a ton of clothes - to help the tiny island nation recover from the devastation of the deadly hurricane. “As of today we would like to stop the clothing donations,” she said Tues- day. “So many people are bringing in clothes we’re not getting the food - because that is the top priority right now.” Items still urgently needed in- clude non-perishable food, batteries, flashlights and medical supplies.

EDITORIALS & OPINIONS infodurhamregion.com Reunion brings vivid memories I went to my high school re- union recently. I was excited about going. It’s been 25 years since I gradu- ated and there were many old friends that I dearly wanted to see again. Unfortunately, although well-organized and held at a lovely venue, the reunion, for some inexplicable reason, was poorly attended. From my entire graduating class, I met only a little over a dozen people. Still, it was nice to see their smiling and aging faces. There were many wonderful surprises and not a few ghastly shocks. It’s amazing how far south the human body can go in a couple of decades. The highlight of my eve- ning, though, with the excep- tion of having a glass of red wine spilled down my back by some class of ‘69 drunkard and being relentlessly hound- ed by a stoned beatnik desper- ate to engage me in a dialogue of souls, was the chance to sit with my old friend and foot- ball coach, Andy. Andy is and always has been a great bull of a man. As high school football players, flopping about spastically in ill-fitting uniforms, we were often terrified by his baleful glare and his booming voice. He didn’t say much, but if he was addressing you, chances were you had screwed up. If we were lazy or in need of correction he would make us do chin-ups, in full gear, from the goal standards. He lived for rainy days when he could make us practise run- ning and diving in the mud until we were sodden through to the skin. At practice’s end we would stagger back to the locker room looking like the dazed survivors of some cata- strophic flash flood. Still, we loved him. There are dozens of us who once shared a huddle, who would still run through a brick wall for him. The reasons for our devotion are, admittedly cli- chéd, but nonetheless time- less. Through Andy and with Andy we learned about cour- age, pride, loyalty and how to be good men. I’m not sure if they still teach those things. I hope to God they do. I hope to God my own boys are sent an Andy that they will happily sweat and ache for. On this night, though, Andy and I did not talk much foot- ball. We came together as veterans of the cancer grid- iron. Both of us engaged in the games of our lives. Mine only just begun, his al- ready well into a hard-fought and exhausting overtime. Typically, Andy was not con- ceding easy yardage. He was making his cancer hang from the crossbars and dive in the mud. As we said goodbye last night, perhaps for the last time, I made sure to take his hand and squeeze it for just a little longer than necessary. Hoping to give him back some of the courage he so often and so freely gave to me. Sunderland resident Neil Crone, actor-comic-writer, saves some of his best lines for his columns. A backpack of trouble To the editor: Re: ‘School’s in the bag for kids today,’ Neil Crone col- umn, Sept. 15. I completely agree with Mr. Crone. My daughter has been in the French immer- sion program in the Catholic school system since Grade 4. She is now in Grade 12. Her homework load started get- ting heavy back in Grade 6. With each passing year it has gotten worse. She has problems with her knees, which I wouldn’t doubt could quite possibly be from carrying (the last time I weighed it) 21 pounds on her back. She has easily spent at least three or four hours every night (some nights, more) on homework . I’m both amazed and re- lieved that she is still in school. No wonder the dropout rate keeps rising. How many peo- ple do we know that bring that much work home with them after a day at the office? This topic has distressed me for years, and the fact that my daughter is conscien- tious and hard working makes matters more stressful as she would not be one to “not” get the work done. Needless to say she has little time for any extracurricular activities and social time. What happened to kids being kids? She is certainly not going to look back on these years and have fond memo- ries, which is a pure shame. Who is to blame for this? Te resa Dionne Pickering Caesareans continue to climb To the editor: I read with dismay last week the news release of the Canadian Institute for Health Information, announcing the latest “Giving Birth in Canada” report. Once again, this year in Durham Region we see a rise in the cesarean birth rate, to an unprecedented 25.8 per cent. Sadly, the District Health Council, of which Durham is a part, has the second-highest cesarean rate in the province – greater even than Toronto. While caesarean can be life- saving surgery for both baby and mother at times, this rate of cesarean (more than 1 in 4 births!) has not improved outcomes. That is to say, we are not seeing healthier mothers and babies as a result of this in- creased intervention. Cae- sareans carry with them a lifetime worth of risk to the woman, and should be used appropriately. The media have recently focused attention on the sup- posed increase in women asking for non-medically in- dicated cesareans, but I don’t believe that is the full story, nor even a small part of it. Bonnie Annis International Caesarean Awareness Network, Chapter, Oshawa Follow England’s example on animal rights To the editor: We could all learn from the Brits. The British House of Com- mons recently passed a law banning fox hunting in Eng- land and Wales. Despite the protests of a few hundred traditionalists, who disguise their killings as sport, the bill passed 356 to 166. In this day and age when animals are no longer considered pests or property, except by stone- aged archaic laws, it is very refreshing to see such strides towards greater respect for all living beings. Cheers to Tony Blair for supporting this. Now, if Canada can follow this great lead and do the same about all hunting. Let’s start with the seal hunt shall we? Then we’d be that much closer to a true civil society.

ONTARIO PRESS COUNCIL System needs thorough planning in order to make it viable M edicare is the money monster that just won’t go away. It seems that, no matter what the federal and provincial governments decide to do, it’s never enough to put the massive health system on an even footing. Every year, the prov- inces spend more and more on medicare but it never seems to be enough. That was essentially the theme of the latest health-care summit, which wrapped up recently with nobody happy about the results. Ye s, the feds came across with more money at the end of the day than they said they would, but the provinces were able to show they need much more. It’s the biggest, most slippery political football of our times and shows no sign of going away. The bigger question we may ask about our health care system is not how much, but simply how it will be delivered. Much more effort needs to be put into placing family doctors in under-serviced areas. Virtually every municipality in Durham Region is desperate for family physicians and the situation, right now, is a bit of a free- for-all with every municipality battling for itself. There is minimal provincial coordination at work to land doctors where they are needed. Minister of Health George Smitherman must work more closely with municipalities and medical schools to find solutions which help land family doctors in the communities where they are most badly needed. Another area of concern includes the increased development of registered and registered practical nurses who are trained and can help take some of the load off doctors. A growing, aging province needs more of these highly trained professionals to help with the evolving requirements of patients. The best way to reduce spiralling health-care costs is to find ways to treat elderly patients in their own homes, rather than in extremely expensive hospital beds. The homecare system, still in development, needs to be rapidly expanded to take on the volume of patients it will no doubt have in years to come. Most elderly patients would no doubt prefer to be treated in their own homes, where possible, and we need to bring back houses calls — this time with nurses — where we can. The fixes for health care are there, if we can co-ordinate all the stakeholders in the system. With costs rising astronomically, we really have no choice.

It is odourless, tasteless, colourless, silent and deadly. Carbon Monoxide is the result of the incomplete combustion of fuels such as natural gas, wood, heating oil, kerosene and charcoal. Common sources of Carbon Monoxide in the home are: Gas or oil furnace (leaky chimney pipe or flue, cracked heat exchanger),Fireplace or wood stove (blocked or clogged chimney), Gas appliances such as a stove, dryer, refrigerator or water heater, Garage (car exhaust, operating fuel burning appliances such as barbeques, lawnmowers or chainsaws in an enclosed area). Carbon Monoxide poisoning can take place over a short period of high exposure, or a long period of lower exposure. Carbon Monoxide can cause you to experience cold & flu like symptoms such as headaches, dizziness, drowsiness, confusion and burning eyes. Prolonged exposure can lead to unconsciousness, convulsions, cardiac trauma, brain damage, coma and death. Carbon Monoxide detectors should be installed in or near the sleeping areas of the home. Additional detectors should be installed on each level of the home. Carbon Monoxide mixes evenly in air so detectors can be mounted at any height but it is recommended they be mounted between knee and chest height (sleeping height). Make sure they are not blocked by furniture, drapes or other obstructions. If you have a combination smoke/Carbon Monoxide detector mount it on the ceiling where smoke will reach it.

NEWS ADVERTISER NORTH PICKERING PLANNING + DESIGN PUBLIC WORKSHOP The Ministry of Municipal Affairs and Housing invites you to the second Public Open House to discuss land use and community design directions for the lands in North Pickering shown on the map below. Under the authority of the Ontario Planning and Development Act, 1994, the ministry is preparing a proposed development plan for these lands. A natural heritage system has been defined for the North Pickering lands by the Ministry of Natural Resources in cooperation with the Toronto and Region Conservation Authority to protect environmentally sensitive features and functions. Lands within the natural heritage system will remain in public ownership and be protected as open space. Where/When: The workshop will be held on Wednesday, October 6, 2004, from 7:00 p.m. to 10:00 p.m., at the Pickering Recreation Complex, O’Brien Room, 1867 Valley Farm Road, in Pickering. The open house will be led by an internationally recognized team of urban planners and designers, including John van Nostrand (Planning Alliance), Anne McIlroy (Brook McIlroy) and Bob Lehman (Meridian Planning). Topic: The open house will examine issues related to the future of the provincially owned Seaton lands and that portion of the Duffins Rouge Agricultural Preserve that falls within the City of Pickering. The ministry’s consultant team will update members of the public on the team’s preparation of a proposed development plan, including proposed directions for natural and cultural heritage, community design and housing and employment. The purpose of the proposed land use and development plan is to lay the foundation for a well planned new community in Pickering — one that would support plans for a Golden Horseshoe Greenbelt and be a progressive model for the 21st century.

CARTER, Julie In loving memory of our wonderful daughter and sister who passed away four years ago today, September 22, 2000 at the age of 13. Dear Julie; Four years ago today was the saddest day of our lives. It was the day that a very special member of our family was called to Heaven. No words can express how much we love and miss you. We miss your enthusiasm for life and your constant de- termination to keep going. Jennifer misses her talks with her big sister and Mike misses matching wits with you. Dad will always miss having you as his favorite rider on the back of his bike. Mom misses watching you grow up together with Mike and Jennifer. Julie, you would be so proud of Mike and Jenn. We have so many beautiful memories of you-some make us laugh and some make us cry, but we are glad you are ours. The only thing that keeps us going is knowing you are no longer suffering and some day we will all be together again. We send you all our love. Mom, Dad, Mike and Jennifer LOKEN, Charles Henry-Dental Technician served 27 years with Royal Canadian Dental Corps Army (R.C.D.C.); taught 16 years at U of T Faculty of Dentistry retiring in 1983- Passed away on Septem- ber 19, 2004 in his 87th year at Sunnybrook Vete- ran's Nursing Home Complex.

Artist Brenda Clark’s famous little fictional turtle is the star of the interac- tive show that will include a visit from the famous illustrator to Pickering and Ajax for the large display of her works. The show runs Sept. 23 to Oct. 22, featuring 80 drawings and watercolours from various Franklin books mounted at two heights. The child’s perspective will be a few feet off the floor so that young people may appreciate the de- tail in each colourful painting. At adult height, the focus is on the evolution of a Franklin story from start to finished product. “I think children are going to be so excited to see these works,” DWAC ex- ecutive director Angie Littlefield says. “What a wonderful way to introduce kids to the art world.” The centre is at 72B Old Kings- ton Rd. in Ajax.

Artists open studios to public Class Act Dinner Theatre tries on ‘Cheaters’ DURHAM – A group of veteran Class Act Dinner Theatre actors are taking on a comedy about adultery this fall. ‘Cheaters,’ by American playwright Michael Jacobs, which opened Sept. 9, tells the story of three couples and the unexpected results of a dinner party. “A couple is making a decision whether or not to marry or break up,” says director Rocky Varcoe. “They de- cided to make it a family affair and invite both sides of parents to dinner.” “Family affair” is just what it turns into, Varcoe said, adding the two sets of parents have never met. When everyone gathers for dinner to help Michelle, who wants to marry, and Allen, who’s not sure, make up their mind, they discover, to everyone’s surprise a wild situation. The father of the bride, Howard, and mother of the groom, Monica, are sleeping together as are the mother of the bride, Grace, and the father of the groom, Sam. “The focus (of the evening) is sup- posed to be on the young couple but it’s not,” Varcoe said. “It’s a good comedy-farce,” he said, adding it was first produced in 1978. It’s full of mixups, miscues and mis- understandings. “We have six well-known actors; all of them have been on our stage be- fore,” he added. Nancy Gleed plays Monica. Daniel Wyse is Howard; David Lepp is Sam; Denise Del Greco is Grace; Jacqueline Mead is Michelle and Graham Gauthi- er is Allen. “They are having a blast,” Varcoe said. “It’s filled with lots of great bits.” The cast has been in rehearsal since the middle of August and has been enjoying the experience, he said. “One of the challenges of this play is there are seven scene changes,” Varcoe added. “There are five different loca- tions. We can’t pause the action yet we have to change scenes. We’re going to do it in a very fun way, with audience involvement and a little music.” Veteran actor Barry Nielson, anoth- er Class Act favourite, is acting as stage manager for ‘Cheaters.’ The comedy was not originally on Class Act’s 2004 season and is replac- ing ‘The Love Nest’ by Sam Cree. ‘Cheaters’ is Jacobs’s most famous play. “The play ran on Broadway for the longest time and it was not available,” Va rcoe said. When he was informed just recently that it was finally available, he jumped at the chance to stage it. ‘The Love Nest’ will be produced in the 2005 sea- son now, Varcoe said. ‘Cheaters’ runs until Oct. 16.
