Ajax-Pickering MP Mark Holland said he, and the community, want to work co-operatively with Transport Minister Lawrence Cannon on this important local issue, but the minis- ter keeps “stonewalling,” and he will only wait so long. “I do want to work with the min- ister, but if they do continue to put us off...That can’t go on forever. The community deserves answers,” he said. Mr. Holland said he hasn’t had any meaningful communication with the minister’s office since April and has yet to receive a reply to a letter he wrote to the minister on May 3 re- garding the importance of public con- sultation for the peer review of the Greater Toronto Airports Authority’s proposed plan for the Pickering air- port. “The minister has been stonewall- ing on these important issues,” Mr. Holland said. “Our community needs to know where things stand.” On June 6, Mr. Holland placed a written question on the House of Commons Order Paper requesting details of the terms of reference of the review, and under House rules, he set a 45-day deadline for a reply. The minister has yet to respond and nothing can be done to require a reply until the House of Commons resumes sitting on Sept. 18. Mr. Holland said he is worried that while there is no political movement on the issue, those in favour of the airport will be able to advance their agenda. Mr. Holland is opposed to an airport in Pickering. A peer review was announced last September by then Liberal transport minister Jean Lapierre because of pressure from the community and Mr. Holland. The Liberals also an- nounced a moratorium on the de- ALMOST OUT Ron Pietroniro / News Advertiser photo PICKERING — Pickering firefighters put out a fire in the cab of a semi tractor trailer on Brock Road just north of Hwy. 7 Tuesday morning.

The cause is unknown. ‘Living document’ lists specific objectives in case breakout hits By Erin Hatfield Staff Writer DURHAM — Should a pandemic hit, the Region has a revised plan in place to deal with it. A pandemic influenza happens when a new type of influenza virus de- velops that humans have no immunity against. The Durham Region health de- partment’s pandemic influenza plan, according to Ross MacEachern, was recently updated to provide a co-ordi- nated response with the World Health Organization’s pandemic plan, which was revised in 2005. “One of the major differences is that it is a much more detailed plan of iden- tifying action the health department would carry out in responding to a pandemic,” said Mr. MacEachern, the manager of environmental health with the health department. The revised plan is designed to meet the needs of the community and re- flect information outlined in current plans developed by Health Canada and the Ontario Ministry of Health and Long-Term Care. The aim, Mr. MacEachern explained, is to ensure that the Durham health department is prepared to effectively respond to an influenza pandemic in the region. It outlines the actions to be carried out by the health department as the lead in managing the response to a pandemic, in co-ordination with the regional Emergency Management Of- fice and other Durham departments. The plan’s objectives are to mini- mize sickness and death, minimize the social and economic impact, and implement an effective surveillance program. It also aims to implement public health measures as required by the Ministry of Health, ensure se- curity of vaccine and anti-virals, pro- vide timely, credible information to health-care professionals, the public and the media, ensure maintenance of essential health department programs and services, and effectively manage anticipated reductions in staff. The biggest change, he explained, is that the plan lays out actual phases of a pandemic and the local responses. The plan will be reviewed and re- vised on a regular basis. “Obviously it is a living document,” Mr. MacEachern said. “It is a good Durham Region planning for potential pandemic ✦ See Minister’s, Page A2 ✦ See Pandemic, Page A2 [ What’s on ] A full portion is served up in Whitevale PICKERING — Heritage United Church in Whitevale hosts its annual Corn Roast tomorrow, Aug. 24, from 5 to 7 p.m. Tickets are available at the door (adults $8, kids $4, family of four, two kids, two adults, $22).

A decision to remove public works from managing the lands had been finalized, but wasn’t announced before the fall of the government. “All things were on the cusp of get- ting answered when they came in,” Mr. Holland said of the Conservative government. Public works has since been re- moved from managing the lands, but other tenant issues have not been ad- dressed. Hugette Guilhaumon, from Mr. Cannon’s office, spoke to the News Advertiser in May. She said she wouldn’t be able to comment on the letter until a reply had been sent to Mr. Holland, which she said would be in late May or early June. Recent calls to Mr. Cannon’s of- fice were answered by saying Mr. Holland’s letter would be answered soon. “There should be a response that will be sent by the end of this week,” said Natalie Sarafian, Mr. Cannon’s press secretary, a week after a call was first placed. She said she could answer ques- tions regarding the peer review and the airport once that is sent. “We have made numer- ous inquiries with the min- ister’s office as to when we might receive a response to that letter,” Mr. Hol- land said. “Every time they assure us that a response is coming short- ly. We’ve been getting the same re- sponse for more than three months now.” Mr. Holland said he is waiting until the House resumes sitting before moving ahead. He said he’s heard from some peo- ple in the community who want to begin an aggressive approach since the minister has shown he is not will- ing to co-operate. “I’m not too far myself from call- ing on an all-out offensive on this... My patience is being tested here,” he said. He will decide how to proceed once he speaks with Mr. Cannon in Sep- tember. “If after that conversation the min- ister is still refusing to give answers at that point in time we’ll have to change the direction we’re going on this,” Mr. Holland said. Those on the other side are also waiting on the government. Scott Armstrong, manager of media relations with the Greater Toronto Air- ports Authority, said the plan for the Pickering airport is on hold right now as they wait for the federal govern- ment to decide what happens next. “Everything right now is in the hands of the federal government,” he said. “We’re waiting for a decision from them.” working document.” The plan is posted on the Region of Durham’s website at www.region. durham.on.ca.

PAGE A3 ◆ NEWS A DVERTISER ◆ August 23, 2006 A/P Needed supplies include notebooks, backpacks, binders, lunch cases By Danielle Milley Staff Writer DURHAM — Edna Klazek wants all children in Durham to have the same tools for a successful school year. The United Way of Ajax-Pickering- Uxbridge has again partnered with the Pickering Town Centre for the sev- enth annual School Supply Drive. Ms. Klazek is the United Way’s executive director. “There are many children across Durham Region whose families suffer from being financially disadvantaged and it’s important that those children be given the same resources and op- portunities as their peers to maintain their self esteem,” she said. The local United Way has joined with the United Way of Oshawa- Whitby-Clarington-Brock and Scugog this year to distribute the back-to- school kits filled with supplies to Dur- ham District School Board (DDSB) students. It had previously worked with the Red Cross Region of Durham branch. The DDSB identifies the students in need in the different schools, both at the elementary and high school level, and gives the United Way the number of students in need of a backpack. “We try to accommodate as many as we can at any given time,” Ms. Klazek said. Last year more than 3,500 back-to- school kits were given to local children in need. More than 40,000 school supplies were collected through the donation boxes at the Pickering Town Centre. Ms. Klazek said the program needs local residents to be just as generous this year as the need isn’t decreasing. In addition to supplies, the United Way is also in need of monetary do- nations this year to provide the back- packs, as the corporate sponsor who did that in the past is no longer in- volved in the program. “It’s a bit of a challenge, but the people in Durham are very generous so we’re confident it will happen,” she said. Ms. Klazek asks parents to think of their own children when considering giving and “how important it is for (them) to have the right tools.” Visitors to the Pickering Town Cen- tre can drop off supplies in three large ‘backpack’ donation boxes until Sept. 10. “With support from our shoppers, our retailers, and local agencies, this program has helped make a difference in the lives of thousands of children,” said Lorna Murphy, PTC marketing director. “As the need in our community con- tinues to grow, we again ask for the public’s help with this year’s School Supply Drive. Our goal is to help disadvantaged students in our community get off to a great start this back-to-school sea- son”. The supplies needed include pen- cils, crayons, scissors, loose-leaf paper, lined and blank notebooks, binders, rulers, glue sticks, erasers, lunch cases, calculators and backpacks. To m ake a monetary donation to the campaign, visit www.uwayapu.org Or call 905-686-0606. The PTC is located at Kingston and Liverpool roads. Annual school supply drive on at Pickering Town C entre Production marks the start of new product program in Oshawa By Izabela Jaroszynski Staff Writer DURHAM — Production at the car plant stopped and the room erupted into cheers as the newly-crowned presi- dent of General Motors Canada made the announcement everyone had been anticipating: “I am thrilled to stand here before you and to announce that the Oshawa car plant has been selected as the plant to manufacture GM’s most celebrated new vehicle, the Chevy Camaro,” Arturo Elias said. The Camaro represents the start of a new product program in Oshawa, with announcements of more vehicles ex- pected in the future. Construction will begin immediately to merge the two car plants into one large flexible manufac- turing facility, which will be capable of producing a variety of both front- and rear-wheel drive cars at the same time. The investment of $740 million to re- vamp the plants into a state-of-the-art production facility means Detroit is se- rious about rewarding Oshawa for its years of production quality and recent cost-cutting agreements, CAW president Buzz Hargrove said. “The fact that they are restructuring this plant means that they have a future plan, they wouldn’t invest here without a plan,” he said. Although much of that investment was announced in March 2005 under the $2.8-billion Beacon Project, GM put the building of the flex plant on hold until Oshawa received future products. The cars currently being built in the two plants will either be discon- tinued by 2008 or will require an updated plat- form to continue being produced. In February of this year, GM gave the CAW a message: without future product allocation, no investment would be made in the Oshawa plant. “We heard that message clearly,” says CAW Local 222 president Chris Buckley. Mr. Buckley led the workers towards signing a cost-cutting agreement that made the plant more economical to op- erate. The agreement was shelved -- put on hold -- until new products were se- cured for the plant. With the Camaro coming to town, that agreement will now be put into place, resulting in reduced relief times for workers as well as the outsourcing of non-trades maintenance workers. During the announcement, Mr. Elias credited Oshawa’s successful bid for the Camaro to the support of the union and the co-operation of all levels of govern- ment. “GM Canada worked very diligently with all of our partners during the past several months to develop a business case to bring this car to Oshawa,” he said. Part of the business case was the cor- porate tax relief given to GM by the Region earlier this year, as well as the $235 million kicked in by the Ontario government. Representatives from all levels of government, as well as Premier Dalton McGuinty, were present in Oshawa for Monday’s announcement. “To our Canadian auto workers, on behalf of all Ontarians, thank you for the fabulous work you do, day in and day out, we are very proud of your work,” Mr. McGuinty said during the announce- ment, also thanking GM for taking the risk and investing in the future of the Oshawa plant. It is hoped the announcement will stem some of the job loss announced by General Motors in November 2005, when nearly 4,000 workers were told to expect a pink slip by 2008. GM spokeswoman Patty Faith says it is too early to tell how many people will be employed at the new flex plant be- cause that will be dictated by consumer demand, but she says at a maximum, the plant will run on three shifts. That is still a difference from the five that are currently in place. According to the union, most of the job loss that results from this change will be absorbed through attrition as senior workers accept the early retirement in- centive package on offer from General Motors. Ta mara Cripps was working on the assembly line when the announcement was made. “It’s fantastic,” she said. “It’s going to ensure that I have a job in the future.” But not all workers are convinced this announcement will bring long-term job security. “Ya, it’s great news, but it could all change on a dime,” said Ed Hohmann. The 22-year GM employee was hesi- tant to show too much enthusiasm for the shiny new car that is said to repre- sent GM’s future in Oshawa. Heavy duty horsepower on the way as GM Durham gets Camaro DURHAM — Police are asking for help in identifying two men suspected in con- nection with a convenience store rob- bery in Ajax. Police say a clerk called police at around 4 a.m. on Aug. 14 to report a rob- bery at the Mac’s Milk store at Church Street, north of Kingston Road. The clerk told police he was sitting in front of the store when a light blue van pulled up. Two masked suspects, one armed with a baseball bat and one armed with a ham- mer, accosted the victim and forced him into the store. The suspects demanded cash and the victim was struck with a baseball bat. Police say the man grabbed the victim and forced him to open the cash register. The two men fled the store with the cash and were last seen driving northbound on Church Street. The first suspect is described as black, 18 to 20-years-old, 5-foot-10 and 181 pounds. The second suspect is described as white, 16 to 18-years-old, 5-foot-7 and 161 pounds. Both men were wearing black sweatshirts and green bandanas. Anyone with information about this incident is asked to contact Detective Mark Price of the robbery unit at 905- 579-1520 ext. 5360 or anonymously to Durham Regional Crime Stoppers at 1- 800-222-8477.

It was delightful. Good company, a deep, cool lake, campfires, lots of laughter and of course, fishing. Matt and I fished every day, sometimes twice a day, for two to three hours at a shot. Yo u have to have a special relationship with someone to spend that amount of time with them in an 18-foot boat and not have to call the OPP at some point. I can fish for hours with my dad or any of my brothers. I can fish with my wife for as long as she’s game or until she finishes her book. And I can fish with my children for as long as there are snacks in the boat. But after immediate family, the list starts getting thin pretty fast. Good fishing partners are rare. In fact, if you’re considering becoming friends with some- one, particularly a male to male relationship, audition- ing them with a fishing trip is not a bad idea. Yo u learn a great deal about someone by how they be- have while fishing. Conver- sation, for instance, quickly gets honed down to its bare essentials in a boat. There’s a reason, after all, why you can’t find a seat in any bar or restaurant these days without having a television set yap- ping in your face, filling in the silence, dumbing down the dialogue. A lot of people are just not good “one on one.” In a boat there’s no place to hide. No wing-man, no perky waitress bailing you out of a conversational slump. Beware individuals who cannot tolerate silence, who are compelled to fill any con- versational void with some- thing, anything, however inane. If you find yourself trapped in a boat with someone like this, the best response is no response. Do not help them fill in the gaps. Simply stay mum and they will eventually work themselves into such a verbose frenzy that they will either pass out or undergo a mild stroke. In either event the outing will improve immense- ly and, as an added perk, you may then have the opportu- nity to go through their tackle box with impunity. The other side of the coin however can be equally un- pleasant. There’s little more discom- fiting than sharing a pleasant morning on the water with a relaxingly taciturn angling partner only to have his first words be “You got a pretty mouth.” I don’t care how good the fishing is, at that point, I’m heading for the dock. Similarly, one expects, indeed hopes for, a certain amount of bonding to occur during your time on the water. But this too is a delicate bal- ance. I like to think I’m a good listener but nothing throws a wet blanket on a perfectly good day of fishing like some teary-eyed Oedipus trying to slit his throat on the trolling motor. Yes, what happens on the lake stays on the lake, but I frankly can’t see how com- ing out of the closet in my boat is going to make the bass fishing any better. Also, once all that’s out in the open, even common fishing parlance be- comes difficult. Words like rod, largemouth and Hawai- ian Wiggler become ickily laden with double entendre. If all this sounds too daunt- ing, remember that if you do find someone you can spend hours on the water with, you’ll have found a very special friend. Someone who helps you make time stand still.

The reasons given by teachers for fewer report cards -- that they are stressful, time-consuming and can easily be replaced by more consul- tation by teachers with parents -- don’t replace the importance of the time-honoured tri-annual parent checkup. There’s nothing quite like seeing the graphic evidence in black and white as to how your child is faring in school. An occasional chat over the phone or note sent home just isn’t the same and lacks impact. The Elementary Teachers’ Federation of Ontario has long wanted a reduction in the number of report cards and is pushing to get rid of that first, early report. The federation suggests that after only a few months of school, teachers don’t have an adequate amount of time to provide a full assessment. They believe a mid-year report, say in late February, and an end-of-year roundup is enough. But, from a parent’s point of view, this is the wrong approach. Parents rely on that first report card to tell them if their child has adapted to the challenges of a new school year. The first card tells a parent if things are OK at school, if there is help needed in certain subjects or if that old standby, “I’ve got no homework tonight,” is fact or fiction on most occasions. If just two report cards were given out each year, there wouldn’t be that early warning sign that can make a big difference over the course of an entire year. Finding out that the school year isn’t going so well halfway through the year is a little too late. One teacher complaint is that report cards are too complex and dif- ficult to do. Perhaps report cards could be simplified and made more straight- forward. That would cut down on the amount of time teachers spend on them and might make it easier for parents to understand them. As it is, report cards are sometimes littered with gobbledygook and weasel words that make it unclear exactly how little Johnny or Janey is doing. They should be written in clear, concise language that allow any- one -- even a Grade 4 student -- to see a clear picture of progress or regress. Keep three report cards because going to two would be a failure for parents and students. Pickering parking decision not in tune with reality To the editor: Re: ‘Pickering takes pass on parking idea,’ July 30. Who are these brain sur- geons? Obviously they do not line up to turn left from Liverpool Road to get to the GO station every morning. Who cares if you have to walk, at least you may have a chance to make your train. Officials must have visions of a new Burger King or Swiss Chalet at that corner -- some- thing to bring in real tax rev- enue. God help us. The area needs traffic-calm- ing and a reality check; not more retail nonsense. These people are like a bad smell that will not go away. Just look at what has been done to Kingston Road over the past 20 years. What an embarrassing disgrace and it looks like it is only going to get worse. Pickering planners over the past 20 years should be ashamed of themselves. Maybe they should all be turfed out of office and forced to take the GO downtown every day. Good luck... and have a nice day. And, oh, don’t get me start- ed on Brock Road, their latest boondoggle. Douglas Brown Pickering Grocery stores should help recycle To the editor: Recycle, recycle, recycle. Seems we are forced to do more and more. I think it is a good idea but why are the grocery chains not forced to do so as well? Why do they still sell Styro- foam cups, plates, egg cartons and plastic shopping bags. They all should be forced back to paper bags and only using recycled egg cartons. Ta lk to the garbage guys and people still can’t get it right at the street in their green bins. Plastic shopping bags, plastic tops from coffee cups, green garbage bags and white gar- bage bags still show up in the green bin. Hello, people, that stuff is not biodegradeable. Ray Bright Oshawa Tr ansit system ineffective To the editor: I see Durham officials are warning residents of an im- pending transit strike this fall. Have you used the service lately? I am unsure how it will be any poorer during a strike, as it is almost non-existent when fully operating. Try using it to reach the GO station in time for a specific train or to get back to your residence from the GO station. Good luck! Walking is a more viable al- ternative.

Between April 2005 and April 2006, the Posi- tive Care Clinic -- which operates out of Lak- eridge Health Whitby to help people with both HIV/AIDS and Hepatitis C -- treated 1,785 pa- tients. Dr. Silverman says that there is a sense among Durham residents that HIV/AIDS is more of a big city problem or something that occurs only in Africa. “And that’s a myth, of course,” he said. “O ne of the problems we have in Durham is that people think you can’t get it here and so therefore you don’t have to worry about it. And if you get symptoms, you don’t have to think about it. And you don’t have to use condoms because we don’t have (the disease) here. But, of course, that’s a complete myth.” The number of people diagnosed with HIV is rising all across the country, up by 16 per cent in 2005 from three years earlier. Health Canada estimates that 58,000 Canadians suffer from the virus. And even though the numbers are already staggering, Dr. Silverman says they represent only the tip of the iceberg. “A lot of people who have the virus are un- aware they have it,” he said. “A significant percentage of people have never had a blood test for HIV. People tend to think that if they get a routine blood test that that will tell. But no, it has to be a specific test for HIV.” Tobin Brown, a registered nurse who works at the Whitby Clinic, says that while the public education campaign about HIV/AIDS is effec- tive, there are pockets of people who are just not being reached. “Like women in their 40s, for example,” she said in an interview from the AIDS conference. “That tends to be a time when perhaps if you’ve been in a relationship and your marriage goes awry, that you may be seeking out other part- ners and may not be aware of the need to use condoms to protect yourself.” She says another worry is the high number of local people who don’t have a family doctor. “The health care providers in walk-in clinics are not really equipped to be asking questions about sexual risk-taking and behaviours that people may be engaged in and unaware that they are placing themselves at risk,” she said. Dr. Silverman says that advanced medical treatments may be sending the mistaken mes- sage that not only is the disease not happening here, but if it is, it’s not fatal. “Because of the meds, a lot of people may not see death from it and may not realize that a lot of people have it and are living relatively normal lives. So there is more ability for denial in some ways,” he said. In countries like Zimbabwe, where it is rare to find a family that has not lost a member to AIDS, the reality of the disease is unavoidable, he said. Dr. Silverman led a team from the Whitby clinic -- which included Ms. Brown as well as nurse Kara Piels, pharmacist Dipen Kalaria and social worker Patrick Hooey -- on a two-week volunteer mission to Zimbabwe in 2005 to help a new clinic deal with the logistics of long-term AIDS care and medical distribution. The project was successful, with nearly 6,000 people now benefiting from the clinic. And the group presented their experiences to more than 20,000 delegates at the conference last week. But as much as they were able to share their expertise learned in Whitby with the African na- tion, Dr. Silverman says the team brought back a greater understanding of the AIDS epidemic that is now being applied to their practice in Durham. “We did come to understand more about the social and human challenges people deal with in living with the virus,” he said. “Stigma is still one of the biggest challenges that people face. We really have to work on education so peo- ple realize you can’t get this virus from kissing somebody, shaking their hand, giving them a hug or sharing a meal with them. You don’t have to shun these people.” AIDS battle ongoing around the world — including Durham Local stats match up with national picture; overall rate down more than 11 per cent over 2004 numbers DURHAM — The crime rate in Durham Re- gion decreased in 2005, a new study has found. According to records given to Statistics Cana- da by Durham Regional Police, the total rate of all criminal code offences is down in the region by 11.2 per cent over 2004. The statistics show that 4,916 offences were committed throughout the year in Durham Re- gion, with the majority (2,324) being property crime. The study also showed a slight increase in violent crime, which at 646 is up by 0.2 per cent. Durham’s crime rate follows the national trend. It showed overall crime rates down by five per cent driven by declines in non-violent crimes, while the violent crime rate remained unchanged from the previous year. On average, Canadians experienced a four per cent increase in homicides (first and sec- ond degree murder, manslaughter, and infanti- cide). That translates into two homicides per 100,000 people -- the highest rate since 1996. Rates of attempted murders in 2005 increased by a significant 14 per cent. Official crime statistics, also known as police- reported crime data, can be used to examine the prevalence, nature and impact on crime. In Canada, these stats have been systemati- cally collected since 1962. To read the full report, visit www.statscan.ca.

Just click hereLady Blue Knights 4-peat as provincial champs Local players help Oshawa under-15 squad capture field lacrosse title over rival Orangeville DURHAM — The Oshawa Lady Blue Knights girls’ under-15 field lacrosse squad captured gold for the fourth time in a row during the recent On- tario Lacrosse Festival. Held at Iroquois Park in Whitby, the 10-day festival featured the pro- vincial championships of the Ontario Lacrosse Association in five age divi- sions. The Blue Knights finished off a successful season tied in points with arch-rival Orangeville 1 team. Oran- geville 1 was ranked first with the fewest goals against by one goal. The tournament saw Oshawa pit- ted with Orangeville 1, Brampton and Orillia in the ‘A’ championship, with Burlington, Six Nations, Kitchener- Waterloo and Orangeville 2 vying for the ‘B’ title. More than 200 fans perched on the hill to see Oshawa and Orangeville 1 face off for the fourth year in a row for the title. The pressure was on an Oshawa squad that played its entire season without a permanent goalie. Each girl had taken a turn in net all year, but when the heat was on, Becky Hilker stepped up and did a stellar job in the final. The first half saw a back-and-forth game with neither team able to take full control. Oshawa scored at the two-minute mark. Orangeville re- sponded at the four-minute mark and the score went back and forth in a hard-fought half that ended in a 6–6 draw. Trailing 12-11 with less than a min- ute and a half remaining in the game, the Blue Knights dug down deep to score two goals to jump out in front 13-12. In the last dying 20 seconds, Hilker made an astounding save to se- cure a fourth consecutive provincial crown. The Blue Knights easily handled Orillia 15–4 in Game 1. They would next face Orangeville 1 in Game 2. These two teams have played each other hard all year, with both teams beating the other. The Blue Knights were better prepared as they wore down Orangeville and frustrated them resulting in four yellow cards. In the end, the Blue Knights prevailed 13–7. Facing Brampton in Game 3, the Blue Knights scored a 12-9 victory to earn entrance to the final. Te am members are Lana Sheppard, Kelly Abbott, Jessica Joncas, Julie Cry- derman, Leah Bressette, Alyssa Childs, Kaelen O’Rahilly, Nicole Martin- dale, Katie Wailes, Mallory MacIsaac, Cassie Edmondson, Sara Hatch, Kelly Te rry, Taylor Landry, Becky Hilker, Samantha Bateman, Karli MacKend- rick and Kaylin Morissette.

Her teacher, however, cautioned that making it a career would mean paying some tough dues, with no guaranteed payoff. “‘If you’re going to do this, you’re going to eat Kraft Dinner six nights a week and on the seventh you’re going to starve,’” she recalls being warned. “I like Kraft Dinner,” Grates re- sponded. It’s typical of her feisty and fearless attitude. The Pickering native, who now lives in Toronto, has indeed made a career for herself, and a multifaceted one at that. Grates acts, writes, directs, produces, teaches and choreographs, and is happiest when she’s working si- multaneously on six or seven projects. She’s not one to wait around for work to fall into her lap. “I really believe that, especially in entertainment, the odds aren’t good,” she says. “So I think it’s important not to wait for things to come into my life.” As an example, Grates wrote a script for a proposed design and organizing show, sent it around and has garnered interest in the idea. But, while that may or may not come off, her As Promised Productions is a success. Grates, with business partner David Di Giorgio, co- created and is the producer of the pro- duction company that endeavours to create and produce original Canadian children’s musicals. The rationale is that a lot of kids’ mascots, at the Cana- dian National Exhibition, for example, walk around and hug kids, but do little else. Grates and her partner turn those flat characters into round ones, creat- ing shows around them. “We really bring them to life,” she says. “We give them a voice, give them a personality.” Her latest creation is ‘Camp CNE’, making its debut at this year’s Cana- dian National Exhibition. The 35-minute, family-oriented mu- sical, is geared to the three- to nine- year-old crowd and will play twice a day for the duration of the CNE, Aug. 18 to Sept. 4, at 12:30 and 5 p.m. on the Kids’ World Stage. The musical will also run at the CNE in 2007 and 2008. The entire process of creating ‘Camp CNE’ took around five months. “We need to find the voices of the characters, and then we need to find the physical bodies to go into the cos- tumes,” Grates explains. The musical tells the story of CNE mascots, including a beaver named Alex from Beaverton and an opera- singing ladybug, Isabelle, from Que- bec. Working with young people is some- thing she especially enjoys. Grates often visits schools in Durham Region, especially in Ajax and Pickering, to give arts workshops to elementary stu- dents for a nominal fee. She recently was in South America, working with young people at the continent’s larg- est orphanage. One child asked if she knew pop star Michael Jackson and his album, ‘Thriller’, and she ended up teaching the kids the dance from the ‘Thriller’ video. “I’m quite young at heart and I can really be silly with them,” she says. She has several other irons in the fire. Grates can be seen in a television movie this fall, ‘Me and Luke’, in which she plays an adoptive mother. Look for her as well in a Source-Circuit City commercial that will be on the small screen any day now. She reasons that if an entertainer has more than one talent, they’ll al- ways have some kind of job through- out the year. That rationale, along with a healthy dose of perseverance, has served her well. “I always have a lot on the go and I just think anything’s possible,” says Grates. Submitted photo Pickering native Toni Grates has been a regular Jill-of-all trades as a writer, director, actor, producer, teacher and choreographer in Toronto. She’s currently working on ‘Camp CNE’, a musical for youngsters that debuted at the Canadian National Exhibition this week.
