Home My WebLink AboutNA2008_01_13Some unhappy with plans to build up area on Kingston Road and Rougemount Drive By Kristen Calis kcalis@durhamregion.com PICKERING — A proposed de- velopment at Kingston Road and Rougemount Drive would add to the view of Pickering as a “basket-case community,” claims a Pickering resi- dent. Residents got the chance to add their two cents Monday night when staff presented plans for zoning bylaw amendments in four areas at the City’s statutory planning infor- mation meeting. All applications still have to go through the formal plan- ning process. Although Tony Salvatore didn’t voice his concerns at the meeting, he offered his thoughts in a letter to the City regarding one of the areas discussed. The proposal he spoke of involves two properties at the north- west corner of Kingston Road and Rougemount Drive. One is vacant and the other has two buildings used for business offices. Kipfinch Devel- opments Ltd. would like to amend the existing zoning to permit a com- mercial club, commercial school, dry cleaning depot, laundromat, personal service shop, public club, restaurant and retail store. Mr. Salvatore wrote that he op- poses the zoning amendments and believes it will cause “irreparable ad- verse consequences” for residents, including excessive noise, traffic, pollution and garbage. “The proposal should be denied as it will be vigorously opposed by area residents by any legal means available, including civil disobedi- ence (even if we have to lie down in front of bulldozers with media cameras recording it!),” he wrote. Resident Lori McDougall said she’s concerned with the quality of people and the noise level it will at- tract, and is quite comfortable with the area as-is, saying she’s concerned with a 24-hour drive-through. Planner Carla Pierini explained the proposed restaurant doesn’t allow for a drive-through. Hessie Rimon, president of PMG Planning Consultants, spoke on be- half of the applicant, and said he doubts all the uses will go in, and looks forward to working with staff on the details. Another application was for prop- erty on Squires Beach Road that is currently a one-storey industrial warehouse building, surrounded by warehousing, trucking and manu- 12 months - grade 8Blaisdale.com 905-509-5005BLAISDALEMONTESSORIBLAISDALE MONTESSORI SCHOOL OPEN HOUSE Tues.

Pickering talks development with residents facturing uses.

No one opposed the proposal. Applicant Dennis Large wants to put a gymnastics facility, dance studio, karate club and soccer club into the one-storey warehouse building just south on Squires Beach Road. The final proposal at the meeting was to build a one-storey building to accommodate a banquet hall, restaurant and meeting rooms on Quigley Street, west of Brock Road. Ward 1 Regional Councillor Bonnie Littley asked if applicant Siva Sivagnanasundaram would con- sider two-storeys or more while the developer thinks banquet halls should be one level. Coun.

The boy was not in youth court for a scheduled appearance Friday morning, but lawyer Alan Rich- ter appeared on the youth’s behalf and requested an adjournment until late February. Mr. Richter said he’s awaiting disclosure of an accident recon- struction report from Durham Regional police as he prepare’s the youth’s defence. The boy, whose identity is protected under the Youth Criminal Justice Act, is charged with two counts of criminal negligence causing death in connection with the Nov. 18 accident. The Crown alleges the boy was at the wheel of a Mazda MX- 6 that was being driven at a high rate of speed when it left Audley Road north of Taunton, tearing through a fence and rolling several times before coming to a rest in a field. Two 15-year-old boys, one from Etobicoke and the other from Laval, Quebec, died in the crash. The victims and the accused boy were students at Jaamiah Al Uloom Al Islamiyaah Ontario school on Audley Road. A few days after the crash the boy was released on bail with relatives acting as sureties; he was placed on virtual house arrest pending the out- come of the court process.

Operation In The Zone began Mon- day as youngsters returned to school after their Christmas break. Officers were on the lookout for speeding and other aggressive driving, and en- suring students were properly using crosswalks and street lights as they made their way to school. On Tuesday police pulled over a 17-year-old Oshawa resident after clocking him at 150 km/h an hour in a 50 km/h zone on Ritson Road. Just half an hour later a 22-year-old Uxbridge man was busted for flying along through heavy fog at 112 km/h in a 50 km/h zone in Leaskdale. Both drivers received automatic seven-day licence suspensions and had their vehicles impounded for a week under recently-introduced street-racing laws. The infractions also occurred in community safety zones, meaning fines to the drivers could be dou- bled. Police also nabbed two drivers trav- elling just under 100 km/h on Whites Road at Highview Road in Pickering. In the first two days of the sched- uled week-long effort, officers wrote 700 tickets, Durham police said. Dozens of drivers nabbed in road safety crackdown The opportunity to save a life can change your life DURHAM — Distress Centre Durham is seeking helpline volunteers.

I f you take the 74 per cent of people an Ipsos survey says “strongly” or “some- what” support construction of an incinerator in Clarington without consid- eration of the 66 per cent who said they’d never heard anything about the idea, this quote from 19th Century poet Andrew Lang might apply to you. “He uses statistics as a drunken man uses lampposts -- for support rather than illumination.” The survey talked to 200 people in each of Durham and York regions to gauge awareness of and support for construc- tion of the controversial incinerator. Of the 400 surveyed in the two municipali- ties, which have a combined population of more than 1.4 million, there was a stunning lack of awareness about the pro- posal. The plan would see residual waste somehow “thermally treated” -- like, burned -- at a facility costing taxpayers $250 million and be built near Courtice Road and Hwy. 401. There’s irony in the 400. It’s the same number of Clarington -- population, approximately 80,000 -- residents who were polled last year, with the vast major- ity supporting a municipal contribution for a hospital expansion. That poll was ignored by Clarington council, which refused the request for a $2-million dona- tion. Despite the potential impacts, only 43 per cent of Durham residents and 24 per cent of York residents surveyed had one warm clue about the proposal. I can forgive York residents. It’s been clear to many for years, clearer yet since the shortlist of sites, which included four locations in Clarington as well as a token spot in York Region that, should this thing go ahead, it’ll be in Durham. Not only that, but York has reduced its commit- ment to construction and feeding garbage to the facility to 12 per cent. So, here in Durham, we’re on the hook for a lot more of those dollars. For more than half of those surveyed here to claim to know nothing of the project is inexcusable. This will impact you finan- cially at least. If you listen to opponents of the plan, your pocketbook will be the least of your worries. The opponents -- a group that includes quite a number of the area’s physicians -- claim the potential for significant health and environmental impacts. At the same time the Ipsos poll said 76 per cent of Durham respondents and 74 per cent of York residents surveyed said they either “strongly” or “somewhat” agree with “building a thermal facility -- for example, an incinerator or gasification plant in Durham or York to process the waste left over after recycling and com- posting.” But remember that only a third of that 75 per cent had even heard of the idea before. One has to wonder how a group of people that had read both the pro and con sides’ reasoning would have responded. Would it have changed the answer? It’s hard to say. But the 75 per cent support really needs to be taken with the rather large grain of salt that is the 66 per cent of people who claimed ignorance of the project. Jennifer Stone is a Metroland Durham Region Media Group reporter. Her column appears occasionally in this space. E-mail jstone@durhamregion.com. Still much to do on incineration process I t hardly came as shocking news that consultants hired by the regions of Dur- ham and York came back with a recom- mendation that a preferred energy-from- waste facility be located in Courtice. Even those hardy souls who made their way to the public meeting in Newmarket on Tuesday afternoon and who urged that no incinerator be built, couldn’t have been surprised by the news. It’s been clear for some time that, if a facil- ity is built, it will be constructed in Courtice. But even with that recommendation in hand, there is still much that needs to be done before any final decision will be made on this highly contentious issue. There is still a full environmental assess- ment required on the site, the technology for such a facility must be chosen and a proper business case for long-term incin- eration must be proven. It might be interesting to take a look at our record on diversion over the last several years and consider where we might be in the foreseeable future. Since 2003, Dur- ham has increased its blue box recycling program from 39,122 tonnes per year to 55,511 tonnes in 2006 (the latest year for which figures are available). Over the same period, food composting has climbed from 2,519 tonnes to 13,976. Yard waste compost has jumped from 16,000 to 20,490 tonnes. Reuse programs have been static, however, with 6,049 tonnes in 2003, 6,752 in 2006. Garbage disposal has dropped slightly, from 144,937 tonnes to 133,845, The key per cent is in diversion, which can be calculated by dividing the total amount of waste produced by the amount that goes into garbage disposal. In 2003, that was 208,697 tonnes in Durham with 144,937 going to garbage. In 2006, 230,574 tonnes were produced with 133,845 of it garbage. According to these figures, the diversion rate in Durham has gone from about 31 per cent in 2003 to about 42 per cent in 2006. Ultimately, the goal must be to get that rate much higher so there is less trash to incinerate. However, such a scenario could fly in the face of any contract that requires a minimum amount of waste to make an incinerator financially viable. Much more discussion and investiga- tion is required before any final call can be made.

Ajax has bought a 0.45 acre (0.182 hectares) parcel at 3081 Lakeview Boulevard, which is at the foot of Shoal Point Road. The Town paid $405,000 for the property. Brian Skinner, the Town’s chief administrative officer, says the buy leaves two properties on the waterfront still in private ownership. The property was owned by the Arnoldi family, he adds. “It’s one we’ve been negotiating with for some time. For a variety of reasons, we were un- able to complete it until just before Christmas,” Mr. Skinner states. The Arnoldi site is “put into public ownership property that’s important to us.” With the purchase, the waterfront trail will be rerouted to go through the Arnoldi property rather than the current route around the site. “The only work we have to have to do, in the 2008 budget, is a small adjustment on the trail. The trail will go through rather than around the property,” he states. A house on the property burned down a few years ago. There are two small storage sheds still on the site and the owner has until the end of February to remove any items and demolish the structures. Money for the purchase was put into the capital projects reserves some years ago, he notes. DURHAM — Overweight youth can learn how to lose weight the right way.

Less than half, 43 per cent, said they’ve seen, read or heard any communication regarding the current study on building an energy-from-waste facility. That’s up 10 per cent from 2006, when the survey was last conducted. In York Region, only 24 per cent said they were aware, down 10 per cent from 2006. York has a 12-per-cent stake in the project. There were no other significant differenc- es between the 2006 and 2007 surveys. Ipsos Reid conducted the survey on be- half of Jacques Whitford, the consultants looking into the project. Of the 400 people surveyed, half were from Durham and half were from York. The results were released at a joint Dur- ham-York waste management meeting in Newmarket on Tuesday. Oshawa Councillor Brian Nicholson questioned the validity of the survey. “There was no specific question asked if they understood what incineration was,” he said. Consultant Jim McKay said the ques- tions were kept as similar as possible to the 2006 survey. Coun. Nicholson also took issue with the fact that the survey results weren’t part of the works package, but were avail- able to those attending the Newmarket meeting. Staff passed out a copy of the re- sults directly following Coun. Nicholson’s comment. Other findings are: -36 per cent of Durham residents agree strongly with building a thermal facility in Clarington, 41 per cent somewhat agree, 10 per cent somewhat disagree, nine per cent strongly disagree and six per cent don’t know; -72 per cent of Durham residents said they were aware the Region exports gar- bage to Michigan; -82 per cent strongly or somewhat agree exporting waste is not sustainable; and, -Among Durham residents opposing in- cineration in Clarington, 40 per support incineration somewhere else, 22 per cent favour exporting to landfills outside of Durham and York and 13 per cent support developing a new landfill in Durham or York. The margin of error for a sample of 400 is plus or minus 4.9 per cent, 19 times out of 20. For a regional sample of 200, the margin of error is plus or minus 6.9 per cent, 19 times out of 20. Durham Region council will vote Jan. 23 on the proposed site for the incinera- tor which a works committee has recom- mended be located in Clarington near Courtice Road and Hwy. 401.

These people removed the wool from their own eyes and saw smoking for what it really is: brainwashing that perpetuates an insidious habit. All that makes stopping smoking diffi cult for people is the belief that it will be hard to stop. That’s it? ...Yes, that’s it. Smokers who think about stopping smoking anticipate horrible anxiety. You can take Tom’s word for it when he tells you that if you stay in the present moment, you’ll have complete success. Consistently staying in the present moment over time results in a new habit: anxiety-free control of your other habits. Your enemies are the do-gooders who come up with notions like “Weedless Wednesday.” Why? Because they’re setting you up to fail by using these props that make you think it’s so hard to stop that you need a special day and community support. PHOOEY! What about tapering off your nicotine consumption over time with nicotine replacement therapy (gum, patches, etc)? NRT is really nico- tine continuance, not replacement. Pharmaceutical companies create those products so that you continue using them! If you stop, so does their profi t. Some doctors (unknowingly) contribute to the problem by prescribing products like the patch or Zyban (an anti-depressant). But even a doctor can tell you that all of the nicotine leaves your body within three days of being free of nicotine consumption. After those three days, it’s just a matter of not returning to bad old habits. How do you do that? Here’s how: stay present while smoking. Before you even come to see a hypnotist like Tom to help you stop smoking, try this and see if Tom is right: 1) With every cigarette you smoke, pay ATTENTION to its taste, smell, sensation. Be present as you smoke; don’t fall into a trance. 2) If you do this, you will NOT want to fi nish that cigarette because it’s disgusting. 3) Count your cigarettes. Think about how hypnotized you already are by the tobacco industry and society. You can be dehypnotized by just being consistently more aware over time. 4) Notice how good you feel about your new-found control of your bad habit. As the number of cigarettes declines, you’ll become a per- manent and successful anxiety-free non-smoker. 5) If Tom is wrong, send him an e-mail to let him know. Many clients who see Tom Eagles for stop-smoking hypnosis see it as a challenge to Tom’s hypnosis ability. So, Tom helps them understand that this success is THEIRS, not his or anyone else’s. Know that the change is for YOU! When you need help, call or e-mail Tom and learn more at www. mindfx.ca. Best wishes for your new life as a person who is mindful of what you consume. Expect success as this new-found control generalizes to other areas of your life.

Consistently staying in the present moment over time results in a new hab- it: anxiety-free control of your other habits. It’s true. According to a recent study by Statistics Canada, conditions such as panic attacks, social anxiety, excessive worry, specifi c phobias, post-trau- matic stress disorder and obsessive-compulsive dis- order affect 12% of Canadians each year. That’s the bad news. The good news is that all of the above are absolutely treatable –often without the need for medication. According to Health Canada and the Canadian Mental Health Association, there are only two scientifi - cally supported treatments available for people with anxiety disorders and/or depression: 1. drug therapy, and 2. Cognitive Behaviour Therapy (CBT). Drug ther- apy involves the use of anti-depressant or anti-anxiety medication, while CBT is a form of psychotherapy – or “talk therapy” – administered by a clinical psycholo- gist. Scientifi c studies have shown that CBT is just as ef- fective as drugs in the short term in dealing with mild to moderate anxiety or depression, and more effec- tive in the long term at preventing relapses. But, unlike with drugs, CBT carries no unwanted side-effects or long-term chemical dependence. “CBT is remarkably effective,” says Dr. David Diren- feld, a registered psychologist and clinical director of the Centre for Cognitive Behaviour Therapy in Ajax, Ontario. Dr. Direnfeld earned his Ph.D. from the State University of New York at Buffalo, and has been prac- ticing CBT since the early 90s. “CBT is one of the great psychological breakthroughs of the 20th century,” he says. So what is CBT, anyway? “CBT is based on the idea that the way we feel and behave is a result of the way we think,” explains Dr. Direnfeld. “In other words, our feelings and behaviours are controlled by our thoughts, rather than by external things, like people, situations or events.” According to Dr. Direnfeld, this means we can al- ways change the way we feel and behave, even if the situations in our lives stay the same. All told, CBT helps patients learn effective self-help skills, and gain independence and assertiveness in dealing with real-life issues. According to Health Can- ada, CBT is now the preferred mode of non-medici- nal treatment for a range of psychological disorders, from anger to panic, eating disorders and personality problems. But recent research suggests that some mental health therapists may still be using treatments that are not based on empirical evidence. “It’s very important to ask questions about your psy- chologist’s level of training,” warns Dr. Direnfeld. “Make sure the person is registered with the Ontario College of Psychologists, and make sure they are only using scientifi cally validated treatments, such as CBT.” For more information about CBT, or to make an appointment at the Centre for Cognitive Behaviour Therapy, call 905-427-2007 or email info@ccbt.ca.

I’m sure it won’t come as a sur- prise to you that getting in shape and losing weight are two of the three top resolutions every New Year. If this is your year to get started, why not give Nordic Walking a try? Walking with poles makes it a full-body exercise, adding up- per body and core conditioning, releasing pain in the neck/shoul- der area and reducing the load on your knees. Nordic walking consumes approximately 400 calories per hour (compared with 280 for normal walking). The poles also add stability on slippery sur- faces. For you mall walkers, the poles come with rubber booties that can be placed over the tips for walking indoors. They also come with exercise bands that can be pulled out and used for complete muscle conditioning, making them the only piece of exercise equipment you’ll need!

You can succeed at eating less, eating healthy, going to the gym; stopping fi ngernail biting; reducing your stress and anxiety, whatever you want in 2008! Hypnosis is a natural state of physical and mental relaxation or ‘trance’ which we often experience on our own every day. Have you ever been engrossed in a movie or a book, daydreamed, or ‘entered the zone’ in athletic activities? If you have, you’ve been hypnotized. It can also occur quite naturally when performing repetitive tasks or operating a motor ve- hicle. Have you ever been driving and arrived at your destination and thought ‘I don’t remember the drive here’? You were in a trance! During a hypnotherapy session, a trained hypno- therapist uses this very safe but powerful tool to guide you through a comfortable and inspiring motivational experience where you communicate with your sub- conscious mind. The subconscious mind is the larg- est part of our mind - it maintains and stores our long term memories, our emotions, our fears and phobias, our attitudes, feelings and beliefs of everything. For true motivation to take place, we must communicate with our subconscious mind. In a hypnotic trance you become more highly responsive to suggestions. The therapist, acting on your behalf, communicates your desires to your subconscious mind which steers you toward your goals. In this trance state, you are always conscious, aware of what is going on around you, and fully capable of thought and reasoning. You will have a heightened awareness, focus, concentration, or per- ception and be able to concentrate sharply. You, not the hypnotherapist, are fully in control and able to achieve your New Year’s resolutions. Phebe-Jane Poole, Ph.D. is a certifi ed hypnother- apist, psychotherapist and life coach.

Consistently ranked among the top teams in the province this sea- son, the Trojans completely over- whelmed the reeling Rebels to the tune of a 91-18 beating at the Ajax school in Lake Ontario Secondary School Athletics (LOSSA) ‘AAAA’ se- nior boys’ basketball league play on Thursday afternoon. The Rebels scored on a techni- cal foul to start the game after the Trojans were assessed it after dunk- ing during the warm-up. The scant Port Perry early lead didn’t last long, however, as Pickering High put its high-powered offence into gear, outscoring the visitors 24-6 at the quarter. Port Perry didn’t register a point in the second stanza as the Trojans pulled into half time ahead 43-6. To their credit and in the name of sportsmanship, the Trojans (35- 2 overall) used their starting five sparingly, with junior national team players Cory and Devoe Joseph see- ing minimal court time. Coach Jim Barclay instead deferred to his deep bench that was more than effective in keeping the game out of reach. Don’t come to the conclusion, however, Barclay was completely pleased with the 73-point cruise- control victory -- the Trojans’ fourth blow-out win of the LOSSA regular season. He noted bad habits tend to creep onto the court after games such as this. “The problem is so many bad habits when we rely on our athleti- cism,” says Barclay, who’s in his first year at the helm of the defending provincial champions, taking over from long-time coach Ron Parfitt, who retired last year. “We get away from team defence and running the offence, because they don’t have to do it and they end up getting lazy. It’s not good for playing at the level we want to play at.” Although the Trojans have reeled off a string of six tournament vic- tories this season, Barclay warns there’s plenty of work to do to be the complete team he thinks they can be. “Even though we’ve won some tournaments, we expect so much more. A couple of times when we’re playing against good opponents, we can be up by 20 and let them back in the game.” Moreover, to defend their OFSAA ‘AAAA’ title this season, Barclay ex- pects the team to continue to get better defensively in games through the next two months. “If we get guys playing the type of defence we want to play because we’re so athletic, the offence will take care of itself,” says Barclay. So far this season, the Trojans have relied exclusively on a steady diet of high-level tournaments throughout the province to keep at the top of their game. Pickering High has reeled off six champion- ships so far this season, winning the SOSI Tournament in Hamilton, the Pinky Lewis (McMaster University) Tournament in Hamilton, the Court Heinbuch Tournament in Kitchener, the Cameron Heights Tournament in Kitchener, the Eastern Commerce Holiday Classic in Toronto and the University of Windsor Tournament. Their two losses have come against other strong programs, los- ing to Mother Teresa of Mississauga by seven points at the Henry Carr Early Bird Tournament and to Ham- ilton Cathedral by three points in overtime at the University of West- ern Ontario Tournament. Brandon Wilson led the Trojans with 21 points against Port Perry. Liban Hassan had 12, followed by Cory Joseph with 11. The Trojans play at the Silver Fox Tournament in Hamilton this weekend. They’ll also compete for a title at their own 24-team Pickering Classic at Durham College/UOIT in Oshawa from Jan. 31 to Feb. 2. Thirty-two teams take part in annual Annandale event By Jim Easson Special to the News Advertiser AJAX — Annandale’s Michael Bryson rink won the competitive junior title at the Bantam and Junior Bonspiel at the Ajax-based club last Saturday. Joining Bryson were team- mates Wesley Forget, Josh Hall and Erik Bocsy. Bryson threw vice rocks but called the game while Forget threw skip rocks. The Orpwood Team from Brampton won the Non-Com- petitive Draw. An Annandale team of Mark Bainard, Matthew Leitch, Ryan Leitch and Corey Haslam came in third. A number of out-of-area teams travelled a distance to attend the bonspiel, including Coldwater, Guelph, Quinte, Cataraqui, and Churchill. Both draws were full, with 32 teams playing two eight-end games. ••• Chalk up another major curling title for the reigning world cham- pion Glenn Howard rink that has Pickering resident Richard Hart playing the vice position. Team Howard played nine games at the Ramada Perth Mas- ters in Scotland from Jan. 3 to 6, winning the final over Kerry Burtnyk of Winnipeg and collect- ing 5,000 pounds, which is close to $10,000 CAD. Also on the Howard team are Brent Laing at second and Craig Savill at lead. ••• The TCA Energizer Men’s bon- spiel is one of the world’s oldest continuous curling events and runs GTA-wide from Jan. 5 to 12, with more than 300 teams en- tered.
