Still plenty of work to be done to help Ajax-Pickering grow By Danielle Milley Staff Writer PICKERING — The redevelop- ment of the Ajax and Pickering hospital may have been approved, but that doesn’t mean more isn’t needed to meet the health-care needs of west Durham’s residents, says Hume Martin. The need for new operating rooms and new in-patient beds was one of the topics discussed by the Rouge Valley Health System presi- dent and chief executive officer as he paid a visit to Pickering council April 3. Mr. Martin said it took a great deal of work by a lot of people to get the approval for the $60-million rede- velopment and expansion project. “You know as well as I how des- perately this project is needed to meet current and future growth in Pickering, Ajax and Whitby,” he said. “It was the unified voices of our community telling the government just how important this project is.” He said it will also take a collec- tive effort to achieve Phase 2, the approval of more operating room space and additional in-patient beds. Morgan Dever of the Friends of the Ajax-Pickering Hospital also spoke to council. He too stressed the need for additional surgical and in-patient beds, and more operating room space. “Without the additional beds... They will simply compound the wait time problem we have,” he said, adding there are 45 in-patient beds and the average wait from the time a decision is made to admit a patient to the time he gets a bed is more than 10 hours. While Mr. Dever said the Friends were pleased with the redevelop- FLYING RIGHT ON IN TO SPRING Ron Pietroniro/ News Advertiser photo PICKERING — Sean Walker shows off his skateboarding prowess at the Pickering Skate Park during a recent spring afternoon.

Concerned child-care providers and citizens from across Durham met Tues- day evening at the Whitby Public Library, taking part in Code Blue For Child Care, a national campaign to pro- tect progress made in child- care funding and planning. Among the plans in dan- ger of cancellation would be those between the Region and the Best Start program for new child-care spaces, described by Denise Gilbert of the Ontario Coalition for Better Child Care as “the first glimpse of hope for families” in Durham. The provincially-funded Best Start program, which works with municipalities across Ontario, had plans to create 1,200 new licensed child- care spaces throughout Durham between 2005 and 2008, with 189 new spaces planned for this year. Ac- cording to Ms. Gilbert, the ultimate goal of Best Start was to create a free and uni- versal system of early child- care throughout the prov- ince. “It was a big goal, but there was will and funding,” Ms. Gilbert said. “There’s no doubt we’re at a very impor- tant crossroads,” she said, referring to the Conservative government’s plan to scrap child-care funding agree- ments between the former Liberal federal government and Ontario, Manitoba and Quebec. The Whitby meeting took place just a few hours after the throne speech was delivered. There were no surprises (in the throne speech),” Ms. Gilbert said. “I can’t enlighten you anymore about that. Those agreements were made with the federal government, not a political party.” According to Ms. Gilbert, the Conservative plan to cancel the planned child- care agreements, in favour of an annual, taxable family allowance of $1,200 for each child under the age of six, would make little impact for families requiring child care. “It doesn’t make a dent in licensed child-care costs,” she said. “Instead of the plan we’re working towards, the fed- eral government is planning to give money with no di- rection.” Ms. Gilbert added that the new federal child-care plan will result in a loss of $1.3 billion in federal funding for child-care spaces and staff, described as “among the lowest paid workers in society”, with average wages around $11.50 per hour. “If there’s not ongoing funding, things like wage subsidies may disappear,” said Roxanne Lambert, di- rector of Children’s Services for the region.

The event raised funds for muscular dys- trophy support. PICKERING — Despite an explanation about a body rub parlour application, Pickering stuck to its deci- sion to deny the request. Murray Evans spoke at the April 3 City council meeting on behalf of the operator of the business at 1050 Brock Rd., who is requesting that the zoning on the property be amended to permit a body rub parlour. He attempted to explain comments made by the applicant to planning staff about Pickering Spa being used as a massage or spa parlour that serves men, women and children. “No one under the age of 18 will be offered service or permitted entry,” Mr. Evans said. He explained the applicant was applying for the body rub designation because the proposed business doesn’t fit into any current defini- tion as it would be offering aromatherapy massages by fully-clothed attendants, but those attendants wouldn’t be certified massage thera- pists. “It is not a traditional body rub parlour,” he said. “It is a massage-type operation and it is adult and everyone will be fully clothed.” Councillors still had con- cerns with the previous com- ments and wondered why the body rub designation was required for the service Mr. Evans was describing. “Your client was very clear that they’d provide ser- vices to men, women and children,” said Ward 1 Re- gional Councillor Maurice Brenner. He said there were other spa parlours in the city that didn’t apply for a body rub parlour designation to offer a similar service. “I find it hard to under- stand why your client would require a body rub designa- tion,” he said. Council approved the recommendation from the March 27 executive com- mittee meeting to deny the request. durhamregion.comP PAGE 4 THE NEWS ADVERTISER, April 9, 2006 $%.4!,$%.4!, #%.42% #%.42% -"%2,%!

EDITORIAL EDITORIALS & OPINIONS infodurhamregion.com durhamregion.com A s each year rolls on by, I’m con- tinually amazed by the talented arts community here in Ajax and Pickering. There’s truly a vast array of artistic talent of all disciplines within our bor- ders. The latest affirmation came Wednes- day at Papp’s Restaurant, where the PineRidge Arts Council held its annual general meeting. The meeting is truly one of the most enjoyable nights of the year -- an event that is everything arts from the moment you arrive until you leave. There are one-of-a-kind works for sale and on display, musical or theatrical entertain- ment, dynamic guest speakers, and an opportunity to meet many of the tal- ented artists living here. I like to think of the arts commu- nity here in Ajax and Pickering as a bit of a secret society. Secret because I’m not sure just how many people realize how deep it runs. The works that hang around the community, the talented actors who hit our stages, the wonderful writers -- all are more than homespun talent. Many have achieved provincial, national and even international ac- claim. Their stories are amazing. But more than the talent, it’s impres- sive to watch the common passion, seemingly unique to our communities, that connects one arts group, with an- other theatre group, with the Durham West Arts Centre, with another and an- other. That unity has made for an incredibly strong voice for the arts here in west Durham. Yet all are in the same boat, and a bit more support is always welcome in spreading the message and developing a new generation of talent and art lov- ers. If you’re a visual artist here there’s a group for you. Check around, find your- self a home away from home. If you get your kicks from hitting the high notes, you have no end of choral options. If you’re simply a lover of the arts, there’s no end of ways to view, enjoy, and fuel your passion. And donations are always welcome to keep these groups, working on shoe- string budgets, afloat. Get involved and you’ll be welcomed with open arms. Celebrate art in Ajax and Pickering -- it’s richly deserving. To ny Doyle’s column ap- pears every third Sunday. E-mail tdoyle@durhamregion.com. Tony Doyle managing editor Richly deep in arts -- get the picture ? And get involved Assessment has to work for all There are few political issues which rile residents like changes -- read increases -- to their property taxes. There is the consistent year-over-year expected increase in municipal and regional rates to keep pace with inflation and service requirements. These increases are a constant fact of life since the days of the zero per cent increase died when provincial downloading kicked in during the late 1990s. But an extra element affecting property taxes was the imposi- tion of market value assessment (MVA) in the late 1990s. The system was originally brought in to rectify the injustice of wildly varying property tax rates that would see some homeowners paying far more than their neighbours despite lots of equal size and homes of similar square footage. The problem was that newer homes were assessed at a higher rate than older homes, the result being rates that were highly uneven and didn’t reflect the actual or real value of the properties. The Province thought MVA would smooth out the inequities. Homes of the same size in the same neighbourhood would be assessed the same values. Fair, right? Well, not exactly. MVA saw some owners get hit with enormous increases. Some, espe- cially those on fixed incomes who were used to a modest annual property tax payment, faced the real horror of being taxed right out of their houses. These assessments could be appealed but, again, it was up to the homeowner to prove it should be lower, not the Municipal Property Assessment Corporation (MPAC). The cost of an appeal was also absorbed by the homeowner, which isn’t fair. Like the people who own them, homes are highly individual. The real value of a home, -- that is, what it would sell for -- can be vastly higher (or lower) than its assessed value. The problem is compounded because assessments must be made every third year on some four million properties in Ontario. It’s a vast boon- doggle. Auditor General Andre Marin has called for changes to MPAC and not a moment too soon. MPAC must reflect the real differences between properties, offer a fair market assessment and provide owners with appeal options that are effective. The system needs to be answerable and accountable to Ontarians.

Immigration system needs revision To the editor: Re: Immigration process desperately needs a revision, Izabela Jaroszynski column, March 24. I think the situation involving Canada’s illicit residents is far more reaching than the emotional issues involved. The immigration numbers/occupations of prospective im- migrants is determined, among other things, by occupational demand. It would seem the substantial numbers of building and other skilled trades workers in the underground system are improperly signalling to the government there is no need for people in these occupations. It would seem the industry would prefer its illicit workers at low non-union wages with no benefits or worker’s compensation coverage, etc., and is happy to per- petuate the exploitation. Yes, there is need for revision. I would suspect that if there was no supply of underground workers for jobs that Canadians “don’t like to do” these occupations would suddenly command higher wages and better conditions. The apparent lack of interest or action to put into place the mechan- ics of a realistic and flexible Immigration system is probably linked to the desire of all of us for the status quo to remain. And we thought we lived in an open, compassionate and egalitarian society.

The Friends are also still looking for a commitment from the Rouge Valley board of directors that the Ajax site is “the major hospital for citizens of Ajax, Pickering, Whitby and west Durham.” Mr. Martin brought council up-to-date on other happenings at the hospital, in- cluding the addition of pediatrician Dr. Paul Meinert. “His arrival has helped stabilize pe- diatric staffing,” he said. “We’re 100-per cent committed to this service and with the help of community partners we con- tinue to recruit.” Pediatrics and obstetrics were nearly transferred to the Centenary site in De- cember because of a lack of pediatri- cians. Mr. Martin also spoke about the wid- ening funding shortfall for GTA/905 hos- pitals. “It really is important to stress the need for fair funding for these areas,” he said. He was pleased to report the Ontario Hospital Association recently convened a growth funding task force, of which he will be a part.

For its fourth free lecture, the SciTech Series presents ‘Einstein’s Jury: The Race to Test Relativity’, April 20 at the Dur- ham District School Board from 7:30 to 9 p.m. Presented by Dr. Jeffrey Crelinsten of the Impact Group, the lecture discusses Einstein’s theory of relativity and how it changed our notions of space and time and dramatically altered the way people look at the universe. Despite countless books on the subject, people largely re- gard relativity as complicated and in- comprehensible. The story of how astronomers tested relativity and how the public reacted to what they reported reveals that these cultural attitudes took root in the early part of the 20th century. SciTech lectures are intended for the general public, and no special scientific knowledge is required. Seating is free and on a first-come, first-served basis.

Although students were out of class for most of March, the elimination of exam week and some extra hours added to schedules will make up for most of the lost time, said Judy Moretton, the college’s vice-president of aca- demics. “We haven’t had to add a lot of extra hours; we’ve stayed within the 8 a.m. to 6 p.m. (time frame), which the students asked for,” said Ms. Moretton. She said weekends have not been added to schedules. For the most part, teachers and students appear fine with the timetable changes, which affected every subject, said Ms. Moretton. The school is working with those who can’t accommodate the new changes to find a way for them to finish the year on time. Generally, school ends around April 21. All programs intended to end before May still will, because students indicated May is when most start their summer jobs, said Ms. Moretton. Common changes to programs include re- duced assignments and tests and some elimi- nated, non-essential, enrichment material. “I pretty well feel they’re getting full deliv- ery,” said Ms. Moretton. With the adjustments, she doesn’t believe anyone will miss anything from their program that’s critical to their future jobs. She added she’s also proud of the way stu- dents and faculty are responding to the chang- es. “It feels like it always does this time of year,” Ms. Moretton said.

Bongard has been a proud Canadian family name since the late 18th century. Jack Bongard has served the residents of Durham Region since April 1, 1982. He founded Bongard Collision Centre on April 1, 1986 and the business was built on honesty, quality and integrity. “It’s unfortunate that we make our living from other people’s misfortunes, but it’s nice that they have someone good to go to when they need us. The business grew through word of mouth; so if you have any concerns at all, please tell us.” Bongard Collision Centre and Glasurit Paint Systems guarantees that your paint repairs or complete paint job will last for as long as you own the car, or we will fi x it. Some shops may save a few dollars by using a variety of refi nishing products, but when it comes to long-term durability, they can end up costing you. That is why Bongard Collision Centre has chosen Glasurit Paint Systems to use on your vehicle. Due to extensive training and equipment upgrades, Glasurit Paint Systems has entitled Bongard Collision Centre to give you their lifetime refi nish warranty on factory fi nishes, honoured throughout North America. Bongard Collision Centre is your assurance of the fi nest materials and hand crafted workmanship available. All repairs listed on your repair order are guaranteed against defective materials or workmanship under normal driving conditions and kilometers for as long as you own the vehicle. Bongard Collision Centre is recommended by most major insurance companies. Here are some important points to remember: YOUR RIGHTS • It’s your car, it’s your right. By law, as the owner of a motor vehicle, you have the right to choose the shop of your choice. You need only to select a repair facility, obtain one estimate and report to your insurance company. Your insurance company may require an inspection of the vehicle prior to starting the repairs. DEDUCTIBLE • Your insurance policy states that your deductible is the very fi rst part of any insurance claim and is to be paid by you. In order for Bongard Collision Centre to continue in good standing with our customers and the insurance industry, we have to be fair with all parties concerned. We cannot leave ourselves in a position of cheating or fraud. TI ME PROMISE • The only way Bongard Collision Centre can make a time promise is if all the correct parts have been delivered and any hidden damages have been diagnosed. You can be assured that Bongard Collision is trying the best for you and your insurer. BETTERMENT • Through normal usage of a vehicle, parts wear and deteriorate. Betterment is the price difference between the replaced part and the depreciated value of the worn part being replaced. Unless you have an R-43 policy on your vehicle, you may be required to pay this improvement charge. The R-43 policy is normally only written on new vehicles for two years, check your policy. COINCIDENCE • If, after an automobile collision, theft, or fi re, there is a problem that cannot be directly related to the current damage, tear down may be required. Tear down must be authorized by the insured, in order to determine whether the problem is related to the claim. If it is normal or coincidental wear and tear, the insured is responsible. I-CAR GOLD CLASS • I-CAR is the educational vehicle the collision industry uses to update shops throughout North America. I-CAR GOLD CLASS indicates that the shop management and technicians are participating in an ongoing update on new technical items such as air bags, antilock braking systems, plastic vehicles, on board computers, etc. If vehicle safety, return at trade-in and enjoyment of the vehicle are important to you as a collision repair customer, contact a Bongard Collision Centre representative for your collision needs at 905-427-8787.

I have noticed that along with my other bodily changes, my feet and legs are also affected. What other changes might I expect and how can I keep myself more comfortable? As you begin to gain weight due to pregnancy the added stresses placed on the foot are most noticeable as you approach your delivery date. An important hormone you are producing during the pregnancy is relaxin. This enables your ligaments to be more lax so that they can expand, Ronald J. Klein B.Sc., D.P.M. Podiatrist-Foot Specialist Ask The Podiatrist... The best bit of advice I can give you is to wear good supportive shoes. These will support the arch, shock absorb during the latter months and accommodate the swollen foot by loosening the laces. not just around the stomach and pelvic area for the fetus, but also in the foot. The foot will lengthen and widen during the pregnancy allowing for a greater surface area to carry the additional weight. After delivering, in most cases, the foot will revert back to normal, although some of my patients complain that their foot has remained at least half to a full size larger. The best bit of advice I can give you is to wear good supportive shoes. These will support the arch, shock absorb during the latter months and accommodate the swollen foot by loosening the laces. If you were used to wearing higher heeled shoes before the pregnancy and now you are wearing fl ats, you may notice some calf muscle strain, either at its insertion behind the knee or at the achilles tendon. Pressure of the fetus in the pelvic area where the veins lead back to the heart, may cause a back up of blood in these veins. This can lead to varicose veins and swelling of the foot and legs. It is most important to keep your legs elevated. Also a good pair of properly fi tted, but not too tight, support hose will control the swelling. If you were a pronator before your pregnancy, the increased laxity and fl atter arch will lead to hyperpronation. I cannot over emphasize the importance of a good supportive shoe. The increased incidence of planter warts with pregnancy, especially in the fi rst three months is noted as well as an increase in foot perspiration and corresponding odour. I always try to encourage my patients to avoid foot problems before they manifest themselves, however, having sore feet is a small price to pay for the wondrous miracle of having a child. Especially when most of the foot and leg problems will revert back to normal within the month or two after delivery.

Ontario Double Rink Championships at Annandale club By Jim Easson Special to the News Advertiser AJAX — Orangeville and Milton curling club rinks are drinking from their silver tankards after winning their respective women’s and men’s events at the Ontario Double Rink Championships, hosted by the An- nandale Curling Club on Sunday. For the men, the teams from Mil- ton Curling Club won the Dominion Regalia Silver Tankard over rinks from the Scarboro Golf and Coun- try Club. The women’s equivalent, OCA Tankard, was won by the Or- angeville Curling Club. The ladies’ runner-ups, a pair of Uxbridge Curl- ing Club teams, lost by one point. ••• An Annandale mixed team of skip Jason March, third Susan Ko- vacs, Blair Metrakos at second, and Cindy McKnight at lead competes in the Ontario Provincial Mixed Fi- nals April 4 to 8 at the Orangeville Curling Club. Last year’s Canadian winner, John Epping of Oakville, gets a bye into the provincials, making it nine teams competing in a round robin to determine the finalists. The winning team represents On- tario at the 2007 Canadian Mixed Curling Championship in Kitchen- er-Waterloo. ••• The Competitive Men’s Club Championship playdowns will be complete April 4. The main event prize will go to either the Warren Leslie or Barry Moylan team. Prizes go to the winners at the closing men’s banquet April 4. ••• Pickering Olympian Richard Hart, vice on the Glenn Howard Ontario championship team that also includes Brent Laing and Craig Savill, heads to Calgary to close out the 2005-06 season. They are in the Calgary Herald Men’s Players Championship at the Calgary Cor- ral, April 12 to 16, and play for a share of the $150,000 men’s purse. ••• A mixed rink from Archbishop Denis O’Connor Catholic High School emerged with a bronze medal at the Ontario Federation of School Athletic Associations (OFSAA) mixed curling champion- ship at the Oshawa Curling Club from March 28 to 30. The DO’C team was skipped by Tracy O’Leary, with third Sandy Martin, second Stacey Hogan, and lead James McPherson. ••• The annual Last Chance Bon- spiel, the season-closing event for men, goes this weekend, April 8 and 9, at Annandale. Thirty-two teams play on Saturday and half that make it to Sunday. After the Sunday afternoon final games, the compressor is turned off and the ice is turned over to skat- ers. Orangeville, Milton teams take home tankards Pickering’s Ian Mayne runner of week PICKERING — A Pickering resident earned Southern Con- ference collegiate honours while running with the University of Tennessee at Chattanooga Mocs track and field team. Distance runner Ian Mayne, a senior at UTC, was one of three track athletes named Southern Conference male runners of the week. Mayne raced to the confer- ence’s top time in the 10,000 metres this outdoor season, 30:16.20. His performance, good for 28th place at the prestigious Stanford Invitational in Palo Alto, Calif., last weekend, was just two sec- onds shy of the school record for the 10k event. It was his first 10k race of the outdoor season. The St. Mary Catholic Second- ary School graduate was a two- time SoCon Indoor Track Ath- lete of the Week in the last few months. Mayne and the Mocs are scheduled to compete at the Sea Ray Relays in Knoxville, Tenn. on April 14 and 15.
