Home My WebLink AboutNA2005_07_24 But don’t let guard down: health officials By Jennifer Stone Staff Writer DURHAM — The Durham Re- gion Health Department is re- minding residents to maintain their vigilance, even though no birds have tested positive for West Nile virus so far this year. Health department officials began adult mosquito trapping in mid-June, and though no Dur- ham insects have tested positive for the illness, there have been reports of positive mosquitoes in nearby Peel Region. That’s an indication the virus could make its way to Durham soon, said Jacques Perrault, environmental health manager. No dead birds have tested pos- itive for the virus so far this year, compared with seven found to have WNv in Durham last sum- mer, said Mr. Perrault. So far this year, there have only been seven positive birds provincewide, in five health units. WNv is an infection carried by some types of mosquitoes, and can lead to minor or serious ill- ness in humans, possibly includ- ing encephalitis, or inflammation of the brain. Mosquitoes become infected by feeding on the blood of a bird carrying the virus. The hot weather so far this summer may mean more mos- quitoes, said a news release from the health department. Mosquito trapping has been occurring throughout the region.

That’s the reasoning that has prompted the Rouge Valley Health System and Lakeridge Health Cor- poration to make permanent two, joint vice-president positions for the hospital organizations. Norman Rees, Rouge Valley’s (RVHS) vice-president of corpo- rate services, and Darrell Sewell, Lakeridge’s (LH) chief human re- sources officer, from now on will perform double duty, alternating between the two organizations. This week’s announcement fol- lows what both organizations say was a successful pilot project. “It worked very well,” said Brian Lemon, Lakeridge chief executive officer. “There were a lot of ben- efits that we anticipated but others we didn’t.” He says it helped to gain a new perspective of the respective or- ganizations and the move reduces administrative costs, saving “a cou- ple of hundred thousand dollars.” As well, Mr. Lemon said by col- laborating, the two groups in the longer term will be able to retain and attract people they wouldn’t be able to attract individually. LH is already assisting the RVHS on its transition to a single health information management sys- tem, Meditech, that Mr. Lemon says tracks a patient through the system, maintaining medical re- cords and performing other tasks. The software is already used at Lakeridge and is to be in place at Rouge Valley’s Ajax and Scar- borough sites by June 2006, when both organizations start to share patient records. With LH’s help, the RVHS saves $3 million it would have otherwise spent to create the system from scratch. “Strategically, it makes sense,” 35.2//-3s7).$/73s2//&).' 905-686-2445 Visit our showroom 239 Station St., Ajax Manufacturer of SUNROOMS & WINDOWS NEW WHITBY CAMPUS OPENING THIS SEPTEMBER!!! www.blaisdale.com 12 mths - grade 8 5 Campuses in Durham Call Head Office 905-509-5005 Blaisdale MONTESSORI School SPACES AVAILABLE IN AJAX & PICKERING PRE-TODDLER PROGRAM (12 mo.-18 mo.)

P PAGE 2 THE NEWS ADVERTISER,JULY 24, 2005 durhamregion.com Hume Martin, Rouge Valley’s CEO, said in a press release about the joint presi- dents. “With the advent of the Local Health Integration Networks, Rouge and Lakeridge are now extremely well positioned to work more co- operatively and further standard- ize processes.” Mr. Lemon said the pilot project that prompted the permanent change was fol- lowed up with a staff survey at both organiza- tions. The move was well-received, al- though there were concerns common to both. “Each organization had some con- cerns about access to the individuals, because they were used to the person being full-time in the organization,” he said. He added that is to be addressed with a realignment of staff that re- port to the vice-presidents. Otherwise, the organizations see great benefits ahead. “Being able to work together on major projects, shared services and so forth is the potential we see in the future,” Mr. Lemon said, using an ex- ample of the possibility of shared la- bour relations and recruitment teams.

The mosquitoes are identified, counted and tested for the virus. There are currently 12 traps in Durham, with over 16,000 mosquitoes having been trapped so far this sea- son.

The Carly Centre for Grieving Children has been busy holding various fund- raising events over the past year to cover start-up costs, said Carol Byvelds, president of the centre’s board of di- rectors, who hopes to open the centre once a suitable location has been found. “During this time, (the centre) has been ap- proached by a number of families and organizations desperately seeking help for their children or clients,” Ms. Byvelds said. “Unfortu- nately, we have had to put these families on a waiting list. The centre is therefore in need of community sup- port to bring their phenom- enal program to these chil- dren.” As a result, a Ladies’ Pampering Cruise will take place Aug. 21 on Lake Scu- gog from 1:30 to 3:30 p.m. It will include mini-stress relief treatments, a fashion show, refreshments, door prizes and gifts. Tickets are $70 each. “Over the past 10 years, the population in Durham Region has grown dramati- cally, resulting in a greater number of deaths and sub- sequent demand for grief support for children and their families,” Ms. Byvelds said. “As anyone who has experienced the loss of a mother, father or sibling during childhood knows, the repercussions of this trauma can last a lifetime if not dealt with properly.” The Carly Centre for Grieving Children is mod- elled after the Dougy Cen- ter in Portland, Oregon -- a world-renowned facil- ity for grieving and trau- matized children. Groups will be run by specially trained and compassion- ate volunteers, Ms. Byvelds said. In the meantime, the centre is appealing to any- one who might be able to help through a donation of funds, space or equipment.

II nknk DD ropsrops 905-665-2871 Local operations begin to move cattle again By Jennifer Stone Staff Writer DURHAM — Local farmers are cautiously optimistic the re-open- ing of the US border to Canadian cattle will mean the industry will return to normal. For the first time since the bor- der was closed to Canadian cattle after the discovery of Canada’s first case of bovine spongiform encephalopathy in 2003, Cana- dian cattle were allowed back into the US this week. But, that could change, as a US court prepares to hear arguments on a permanent injunction. That hearing was to begin July 27, but published re- ports indicate the judge has de- layed the hearing until he has had a chance to read the decision to reopen the borders, issued by the federal appeals court. “I think it certainly will” help, said John Wolters, a Blackstock farmer and past-president of the Durham Cattleman’s Association (DCA). “But it has to pick up some momentum so we get back to where we were.” The border re-opening “should be a boon somewhat to the mar- ket,” said Mr. Wolters. The first load of Canadian cattle crossed the border this week, after a ban imposed in May 2003 on live cattle under 30 months. “It sounds awfully good, that there were cattle moving across the border already,” said Stan Found, current DCA president. When the ban was first imposed, Mr. Found said farmers saw prices drop from $1.15 a pound to 25 cents a pound on live cattle. Cattle that had been fed from the time they were calves wound up being sold “at less than half the price as the calf cost when it went into the feedlot,” said Mr. Found. Local farmers are waiting to see what happens with the permanent injunction court case, Mr. Found said. “Hopefully, everything’s OK there, and everything can return to normal, or as normal as can be after so many have had to close the doors on the cattle business in Canada,” said the Courtice farmer. “It’s certainly a lot better than if they’d said no, no, no last week” said Mr. Found. “As long as they say yes again (July 27), everything’s going to be OK for those who are left.” The border closure has had an impact on many local farmers, said Mr. Wolters. “We haven’t had one cent of income this year,” said Mr. Wolters. Between the difficulty in finding a market in which to sell the cattle, and the low prices available when a farmer finally does sell, many farmers have been hit hard in the pocketbook, he said. “I know there’s a lot of younger, and some older, farmers who are in dire straits,” he said. The US may have overreacted to the very few and isolated cases of BSE found in Canadian cattle, sug- gested Mr. Wolters, noting the Ca- nadian side had done all it could to ensure no sick cattle made it over the border. “I think they looked for an excuse to keep our cattle out of their market,” said Mr. Wolters. “If one or two or 10 animals in one country are sick, it doesn’t mean the whole herd is sick.” Canadians seemed to do what they could to help the sagging beef industry, though the poor market wasn’t necessarily reflected in gro- cery store prices, said Mr. Wolters. “We were fortunate that the Canadian people didn’t seem too worried about this. They were sen- sible and kept on eating Canadian beef and we appreciate that,” he said.

There are so many questions and few answers about a tragic double drowning in Lake Scugog this week. The burning question is, could this tragedy have been averted? In hindsight, likely. This was supposed to be a family heading out on the lake for a little relaxation and a fishing excursion on two vessels - one a pontoon boat, the other a small aluminum fishing boat. Somewhere out on Lake Scugog one person in a life-jacket en- tered the water and two others went in to help -- only the one wearing the life-jacket survived. If all three had been wearing life-jackets on this trip, chances are the ending to this story would have been much different. Ironically, Saturday, July 23 is National Drowning Preven- tion Day and Oshawa native Barbara Underhill has been work- ing with the society for years. The former champion figure skater’s eight-month-old daughter drowned in the family’s backyard pool 12 years ago, which prompted her to initiate the Swim To Survive Program with the Lifesaving Society. She also started the Stephanie Gaetz Foundation with her husband Rick Gaetz to promote safety education and injury prevention among children. “As children move beyond the toddler stage, learning to swim is a necessary life skill,” she says. “We teach children bike safety and road safety, but we also need to equip them with the swimming ability necessary for survival.” In Canada, the Canadian Red Cross estimates there are 500 drowning deaths per year with most of them in the summer. In Ontario, an average of seven people per day between May and September are treated in emergency rooms for water-related injuries. It’s not the first time this summer that a tragedy of this nature has happened in Ontario. Earlier this summer, two brothers drowned near Guelph. That incident likely played a huge part in Education Minister Gerard Kennedy calling for all school-aged children to take lessons in conjunction with the Lifesaving Society, school boards and local municipalities. Mr. Kennedy would like to see all Grade 3 students be able to swim in an effort to promote safety in this province. It’s a worthwhile goal that everyone should get behind. This shouldn’t put the onus on these organizations for water safety -- it’s up to everyone to ensure water safety is a priority. Karla made more than just mistakes To the editor: Re: ‘Karla has been punished enough’, Frank Duguay letter, July 20. I was absolutely disgusted and appalled with Frank Du- guay’s letter to the editor expressing his anger with Neil Crone’s column about Karla. Mr. Crone simply said what 90 per cent of us feel. Mr. Duguay said: “We must accept the fact that people do make mistakes.” Mistakes, my friend, are made on an English exam, turning down the wrong street, buying margarine when you meant to buy butter. Karla’s inhumane, monstrous behavior can hardly be deemed as a “mistake.” Of course we should all be angry that our government made such a deal with Karla in the first place. Unfortunately, it’s be- cause of the do-gooders like yourself who fought for criminals rights and to believe that these types of people can in some way be rehabilitated, that our justice system has been forced to stoop to such agreements to begin with. Karla serving just 12 years for her crimes makes many of us angry and we don’t ever need to give her the courtesy of ac- cepting her or what she did!

Penalize those who don’t follow the rules I f this recent heat wave has confirmed anything, it’s that we don’t like to sac- rifice -- consequences be damned. Ta ke a drive around and see. Lawns being watered, plenty of lights on at night, generally we’re putting up a good fight in the battle with this heat. Ye t, we’re also well aware that Durham faces arguably its greatest ever stress on its water system and electricity reserves are terribly low. There’s a ban on water- ing in four eastern Durham communi- ties and most of the others are being asked to conserve as much as possible. There’s also a real concern we’ll be roll- ing into rotating blackouts. No need to worry, however, just crank up that air, turn on another light, kick back and forget all our troubles, right? What really rankles about all this is that it was just two years ago that On- tario was thrust into darkness, scaring so many of us silly about how we’d cope if we ever lost power for an extended period of time. People did adjust their patterns in the days after, cutting con- sumption and ensuring the lights stayed off. So, what’s happened since? Will it re- ally take another blackout to get us back on track? As for the water ban, it’s having so little impact even some municipalities are ignoring it. How then can Durham ever really expect residents to heed the warning? We just don’t live in a society that can accept an honour system and follow the rules. (To be fair, there are many doing their part.) So let’s get tough. Develop a regional bylaw that puts a stiff penalty on break- ing bans or calls for conservation. Right now Durham can turn your water off, but officials admit that would only be in an extreme circumstance. If you’re caught watering your lawn or washing your car during a ban or if you’re not following the odd-even conservation schedule, a $500 surprise is added to your next water bill. Sure it requires manpower and dollars to follow through, but needlessly crip- pling our region is even more costly. As for electricity, the Province has to continue to charge residents more, the more they use power. If you’re way above the residential or commercial av- erage, it should be reflected as such. Put the risks into real dollars and cents for those who won’t, or don’t, un- derstand. And then we’ll see a lot more common sense. To ny Doyle’s column apears every third Sunday.

For three Durham Region girls, that dream is one step closer to reality. Kristen Pargetter, Jessie Vella and Bryanna McCarthy, all 14, have been selected to represent Ontario at a National all-star tour- nament to held in Saskatchewan this week. The girls left Monday for the 10-province competition that will ultimately be one of the deciding factors in their ability to be a part of the Canadian National program. Should they ‘wow’ the coaching staff so-to-speak, the girls will im- prove their chances of garnering an invite to train at the National Training Centre (NTC). There, the girls will have an op- portunity to hone their skills with some of the best soccer players in the country. “The NTC is a preparatory phase for those hoping to, and who have made the Canadian Na- tional team,” said Jens Kraemer, head coach of the Whitby Iroquois Soccer Club (WISC). The Ontario training centre is located in Vaughan. However, if a spot at the NTC isn’t in the cards, another pos- sibility for the girls could be the Ontario under-15 squad. “If they do well there (Saskatch- ewan), they could be invited back to the under-15 provincial pro- gram,” said Paul Nesbitt, who is Pargetter and Vella’s goaltending coach with the WISC. All three girls are members of WISC and have been successful in the sport since an early age. Pargetter, who is a Whitby resi- dent, has been between the pipes of a soccer net since the age of four and along the way has been a part of the under-12 regional premier champions, the under-13 regional program as well as the under-14 provincial squad. Vella has followed a similar path in that she has also been involved in the game since the ripe age of four. Her soccer resume is not as long as Pargetter’s, but for the past two years she has been her goal- tending partner with the under- 14s and the under-13s. Nesbitt has not been surprised in the least by the Pickering resi- dent’s success. “Hands down, she is one of the best athletes I have ever had the opportunity to work with,” he says of Vella. “She deserves all the suc- cess she has gained.” McCarthy is the third member of the Whitby team vying for Nation- al fame. The Ajax product hopes to one day anchor the offence for the National program. She has been scoring goals since she was seven and was a teammate of Pargetter’s and Vella’s on the both the under- 14 and under-13 teams. In addi- tion to that, McCarthy has already received an invitation to be a part of the NTC program. Sure, the girls are still young, but they are seemingly only a few goals and saves away from the Na- tional stage. Pickering fitness model achieves longtime goal Sinclair finishes fifth at Miss Ontario Bikini in Toronto By Al Rivett Sports Editor PICKERING — After two years of competing in fitness model- ling, a Pickering woman reached an important milestone recently. Nancy Sinclair, 46, admits the Fitness Canada, Miss Ontario Bi- kini competition at the Toronto Molson Indy wasn’t even on her competitive radar for a series of reasons. Most of all, she was still feel- ing the pangs of disappointment after a ninth-place finish in her over-35 category at the Fitness and Model Expo (FAME) compe- tition at the Metro Toronto Con- vention Centre last month. “I had no interest in compet- ing. I was going to take the sum- mer off and compete next year. But, I got talked into it and I’m glad I did,” she says. Finishing fifth at the event didn’t come without a series of hurdles to overcome for Sinclair. As she was not training specifi- cally for competition, she had to undergo three weeks of intensive training, including a diet alterna- tion, in order to be ready to com- pete at the event, which included two rounds — one in sportswear and another in a bikini. At the end of the two rounds, she was still on stage and, after the fifth-place sash and flowers were placed in her arms, she knew she had achieved a long- time goal. A year ago at the same event — her first ever competi- tion — she finished second last. “I couldn’t believe how good it felt,” says Sinclair. “I said, ‘Oh my God, I actually did it. I finally made it’.” While competing, she also in- jured one of her quad muscles, making walking and climbing the stairs to the stage tough. “Going up and down the stairs was very difficult,” says Sinclair. “My leg was killing me, but you do what you have to do. The fact that I did it amazes me.” Six years ago, overweight and unhappy, Sinclair put in motion a training regimen that not only led her to shed 40 pounds off her petite, 5-foot frame, but also led to the competitive aspect of working out through fitness modelling. The fleet manager for a major Canadian company plans to continue to compete in fitness modelling, as well as to nurture her company, Body Connection, she started with fellow personal trainer Marni Basic. The com- pany’s designed to help other women meet their health and fitness goals. NOTES: Sinclair will be fea- tured in the August edition of Oxygen magazine, a U.S. publica- tion devoted to women’s fitness. photo courtesy of Glen Grant Pickering’s Nancy Sinclair competed at Fitness Canada, Miss Ontario Bi- kini during Toronto’s Molson Indy. Claremont woman comes up aces at golf tourney Pickering’s Susan Wickware second at women’s senior championship PICKERING — Two local golf- ers battled it out for the title at the 2005 Investors Group Wom- en’s Senior Championships at the Summit Golf and Country Club in Richmond Hill. Debbie Mcdonald, of Claremont, recorded a four-stroke victory over 2004 champion Susan Wickware, of Pickering, to capture the cham- pionship of the three-round event, which started on Tuesday and fin- ished Thursday. Mcdonald, who’s home course is the Whitevale Golf Club, carded a six-over par score of 222 (79-70-73) to win over Wickware, who finished with a 10-over par score of 226 (78- 76-72). Wickware’s a member of the Toronto Ladies Golf Club. Angela Colm, of Ajax, finished in an 11th-place tie, shooting a 22-over par 238 for the three rounds. Colm’s also a member of the Whitevale Golf Club.
