HomeMy WebLinkAboutNA2008_01_20Four projects will see 131 homes built 82 units coming to Station Street in Ajax By Keith Gilligan kgilligan@durhamregion.com DURHAM — Four projects across Durham Region will provide 131 af- fordable housing units. With 3,600 individuals and fami- lies on a Regional waiting list, the new units are “very welcome relief for 131 families,” said Oshawa Re- gional Councillor April Cullen. The four projects were an- nounced in a ceremony in Ajax Thursday morning, where one development includes an 82-unit building. The other projects are: • a $2.2 million, 32-unit project at 762 King St. E., in Oshawa for low- income families and individuals, including people with physical dis- abilities and other special needs. It’s sponsored by TGFG Ventures Inc.; • $350,000 for five new units in a building at 20 Perry St. in Uxbridge. It will be for low-income seniors and people with disabilities; and, • an $840,000, 12-unit project at 229 Lakeview Park Dr. in Oshawa. It’s for low-income families and indi- viduals. The Ajax project, at 40 Station St., will cost $13.6 million and is for low-income families and individu- als, including people with physi- cal disabilities and other special needs. The four projects are being fund- ed through the Canada-Ontario Affordable Housing Program and are part of $65 million in initiatives across the province.

The man, an employee with the TD Bank, helped would-be investors obtain mortgages for what they thought were condomini- ums. But the victims actu- ally were buying parking lot spaces and storage units worth far less, Toronto po- lice said. The scammers also used information obtained from the victims to fraudulently open business and personal lines of credit, which were then emptied, police said. Toronto cops say the scam saw the TD Bank defrauded of $3.8 million. It’s alleged that between 1998 and 2000 two Toronto brothers attracted poten- tial investors for what they said were to be luxury two- and three-bedroom units on properties they owned in Toronto and Markham. With the help of a real estate agent and two mortgage ex- perts employed by the bank, the brothers helped the in- vestors obtain mortgages, police said; it’s alleged the Pickering man was one of those mortgage specialists. Personal information sup- plied by victims in obtaining mortgages was used to take out lines of credit, which were maxed out and eventu- ally defaulted, police said. Charged with fraud and other offences are Patrick Chan, 61, of Richmond Hill; Lascelles Williams, 36, of Pickering; Saquib Majeed Baig, 38, of Markham; Ste- ven Mucha, 53, of Toronto, and 70-year-old Ronald Wil- liams of Mississauga. War- rants have been issued for two other men. DURHAM — The Wom- en’s Multicultural Resource and Counselling Centre is looking for artists of all ages.

DURHAM — The Youth Centre in Ajax is starting a social support group for lesbian, gay, bisexual, trans- gendered, transsexual, two- spirited, intersexual, queer and questioning youth. “It’s important because it gives youth a chance to connect with each other and support one another in a safe and welcoming place.” says Amy Nagel, a health promoter at The Youth Centre, in a press re- lease. The program is free and is designed for youth in Ajax-Pickering to be able to drop-in, talk to people, and make friends. Participants are invited to discuss the topics that are important to them. There will also be guest presenters and days to just watch movies and play games. The Youth Centre aims to provide a positive envi- ronment where youth aged 13-19 can feel free to talk. The group starts on Jan. 22 at The Youth Centre, 360 Bayly St., Unit 5.

At last, some long overdue work is being done,” Mr. Dickson stated. Jim Watson, the provincial municipal af- fairs and housing minister, said many people are spending more than half of their income on housing, leaving little money for cloth- ing and food, adding the announcement will “help literally thousands.” Mary Menzies, with the Region’s social ser- vices department, housing division, said in an interview that last year, “fewer than 50 units were available” for low-income individuals. ✦ Housing from page 1 If you’re so inclined, the timing’s right to quit smoking DURHAM — National Non-Smoking Week is this week (Jan. 20 to 26) and area residents are encouraged to take this opportunity to kick the habit. “Smoking is the No. 1 preventable cause of death and disease,” says Durham public health nurse Mary Sue O’Connor. “Decreas- ing the number of those who smoke will de- crease death and disease.” A survey conducted by the Health Depart- ment indicates close to 17 per cent of area residents smoke daily. The study also says two-thirds of those smokers are considering quitting. The health department is offering several free programs for those interested in quit- ting, including a series of education sessions. These hour-long classes cover everything someone needs in order to quit. The sessions help smokers understand the nicotine addic- tion and encourage the adoption of a plan to quit. For those looking for more in-depth help with quitting, the health department also has a six-week series of sessions. There’s an infor- mation session on Feb. 6 for everyone inter- ested. The one-hour education sessions and the six-week series are hosted at Durham Regional Headquarters, 605 Rossland Rd. E. in Whitby.

When you look at your child’s report card, what do you see? Do you notice the lowest marks fi rst? The ‘C’ in math, rather than the ‘A’ in English? Paul Ogborne, principal of Pickering Christian School in Ajax, advo- cates a different approach: focusing on a child’s strengths, rather than weaknesses. “If your child is not really strong in one subject, like math, he or she probably never will be,” he says. “But if they’re really good in another area, we should celebrate and promote that.” This may mean dropping the math tutor, for example, to spend more time on English. Ogborne says the important thing is to spend more time on what’s working, than what’s not. This month, Pickering Christian School is hosting a seminar that Og- borne hopes will help parents turn around conventional thinking. Dr. Merry C. Lin, a clinical psychologist in Pickering who works with families and children, will be a guest speaker on January 24. She will talk about how to celebrate and build upon your child’s strengths and learning style so that you can help them succeed. Ogborne says Lin will show parents how to focus on what’s right, not what’s wrong, with their children’s learning. “So, if your child gets the highest marks in English, you help your child to be the best possible English student they can be,” he says. “Soon they’ll be in high school and they’ll begin to specialize anyway.” Ogborne is not advocating children turn their back on a weaker sub- ject; he says children need a functional level in all subjects, but they can benefi t from spending more effort on the areas where they’re already achieving. More than 200 students, from junior kindergarten to grade 8, attend Pickering Christian School at 162 Rossland Rd. East. The semi- nar is open to the public and starts at 7:00 p.m. on January 24th.

As expected, on Jan. 8, the York-Dur- ham Joint Waste Management Group announced that a Courtice site was the preferred site for an incinerator project. That was the spark for a flurry of activ- ity that will culminate Wednesday at the Region where council will vote on the site. The councillors have a mixed bag of rec- ommendations to work with. The works committees in both regions endorsed the site. But, the next day, Durham’s health and social services com- mittee recommended council hold off on selecting a site until a preferred technolo- gy is chosen. So far, four of the five options on the table are mass burn technologies. The fifth combines mass burn and gasifi- cation. Clarington’s councillors are no barom- eter by which to measure support for the project either. At a recent meeting, the local councillors were at odds with the regional councillors when it comes to the site selection process. In a 4-3 vote, Clar- ington council passed a motion asking site selection be delayed. The three voting against the delay, however, are the same three that sit on regional council and the same three who will likely vote in favour of the Courtice site on Wednesday. Oshawa’s Strategic Initiatives Commit- tee has taken the strongest stance so far with a motion that says Oshawa “is not a willing recipient of the wastes and poisons discharged into the air from a proposed incinerator.” Among those adopting that motion were four of eight councillors who will vote on the issue on Wednesday. All that being said, let’s be clear. If the incinerator is built, it will be built in Clar- ington. East Gwillimbury, identified as the second most likely site, doesn’t want it. York Region has reduced its stake in the project to 12 per cent. And, East Gwillim- bury’s council unanimously said in May that it would not be a willing host for such a facility. Though still ostensibly a partnership, Durham is spearheading this project. If it happens, it will be Durham residents who pick up the majority of the tab. It will be located in Clarington, in Courtice, on a piece of property owned by the Region. For those who support the project or are still considering its merits, by all means, vote for the site. But, for those councillors who don’t want an incinerator in Courtice, it’s time to lay their cards on the table. Delaying site selection won’t change anything. And, finally, let’s not delude ourselves into thinking this is an issue for just the people of Clarington. Regional Chairman Roger Anderson is adamant the facility would cost $150 to $160 million. Oppo- nents keep throwing out a figure of $250 million. Either way, it’s a costly project and regardless of where Durham residents live, they’ll be picking up the tab. Heading into Wednesday’s meeting, the only thing that’s certain is the piles of reports, articles, petitions and press releases on this issue amount to a garbage crisis on their own. And, there’s surely more to come. Reka Szekely’s column appears every three weeks. E-mail her at szekely@durhamregion. com Affordable housing plan recognizes the needs of most vulnerable T hose who’ve waited for many years for affordable housing in Durham Region have a reason to smile today. That’s because the Province and the fed- eral government have listened to the needs of Durham and are coming through with $17 million in funding to construct four projects. The affordable housing will be home to 131 families once complete and will see buildings constructed in Ajax, Oshawa and Uxbridge. The most impressive of the four is an 82-unit, $13.6-million building at 40 Station St., Ajax, that will target the needs of low-income families, individuals and those with physical disabilities and special needs. Two projects in Oshawa include a $2.2- million 32-unit facility at 762 King St. E., and a 12-unit, $840,000 building at 229 Lakeview Park Dr., in Oshawa. Uxbridge will get a $350,000 investment for five new units at 20 Perry St. The decision to build affordable housing is long overdue and is recognition by upper levels of government that there is a role to play in helping our region’s most vulner- able citizens. Even in the midst of great wealth and prosperity and a housing boom that has lasted for decades, there are too many who still struggle to pay the bills and provide for themselves and their families. With the feds and the Province running multi-billion-dollar surpluses year after year, there really is no excuse not to pitch in and help out. Some might suggest the 131 units is a mere drop in the bucket considering there are 3,600 families and individuals on a Regional waiting list. But it’s a start and it’s obviously appreciated by April Cullen, chairwoman of the Region’s health and social services committee. The new units are, “very welcome relief for 131 families,” she said. Let’s hope the ongoing concerns of those who need help are monitored and closely watched by the feds and the Province. Those in local government are keenly aware of what needs to be done. But municipalities and the Region can’t make it happen without a little help from their friends in Toronto and Ottawa.

[ Hockey ] Ajacian goes ape for Gorillas AJAX — An Ajax hockey prod- uct is going to the Gorillas. The Amarillo (Texas) Goril- las of the Central Hockey League signed rookie forward Brett Mc- Connachie, 22, for the remainder of the 2007-08 season. The graduate of the Uni- versity of Alabama- Huntsville spent a brief time with the Fresno Fal- cons of the East Coast Hockey League (ECHL), and with the Oklahoma City Blazers of the CHL before joining the Gorillas this week. McConnachie is the sixth member of the 2007-08 Amarillo squad who played his collegiate hockey at the University of Ala- bama-Huntsville. Brett McConnachie Patterson pockets Energizer crown Annandale skip wins seniors’ event at big Toronto bonspiel By Jim Easson Special to the News Advertiser AJAX — An Annandale rink rose to the top at the annual TCA Ener- gizer Men’s Bonspiel in Toronto. One of the world’s oldest curling events, the Energizer ’spiel attracted more than 1,200 players from clubs across the GTA. Annandale’s Dale Patterson team won the Saturday final in the Se- niors Second Event. The game was tied after six ends, the seventh was blanked, and Patterson had the hammer for the last end. He made a fine hit-and-roll shot with his first skip rock, and it was good enough to win the event when the opposi- tion’s last rock came up light. With Patterson were teammates Ron Zuber, John Smith, and Ron Reeve. Five Annandale skips -- Patter- son, Brian Hawke, Glenn Bull, Ray Sanford, and Terry Eastman -- com- peted at the event. ••• An Annandale bantam boys’ team captured the ‘A’ side of the draw at the Ontario Curling Asso- ciation’s bantam zone playdown in Uxbridge last weekend. Ten teams competed in the zone competition. Michael Bryson threw vice rocks but called the game and Wesley Forget threw skip rocks. One other Annandale team, skipped by Jake McGhee, was side- lined with a 1-2 record in the zone playdown. The Bryson rink, with teammates Forget, Josh Hall and Erik Bocsy and coach Susannah Moylan, now moves on to the regionals in Port Perry this weekend. ••• The next Bonspiel at Annandale is the Rabbie Burns Funspiel slated for Jan. 26. The mixed team event offers two five-end games, prizes, dinner and a dance. The off-ice activities between games includes ‘heavy events’ which, for the non- Scottish, translates into ‘games’. ••• The reigning world curling cham- pionship Glenn Howard team, in- cluding Pickering resident Richard Hart at vice, Brent Laing at second, and Craig Savill as lead, next head to Saskatoon for The Masters of Curling from Jan. 23 to 27. The Howard rink is the defend- ing champion and looks again for their share of the $100,000 purse. The event has 16 teams in a round robin, including Randy Ferbey, Brad Gushue, Jeff Stoughton, Kevin Martin, and Saskatchewan’s Pat Simmons, the sixth-ranked skip in the current Order of Merit rank- ings. The Howard rink will also hold a Fantasy Curling Camp from Sept. 26 to 28 at the Guelph Curling Club and Holiday Inn in Guelph.

Price Senior Financial Advisor DURHAM — The Ajax-Pickering Raiders novice ‘AAA’ rep hockey team turned in a golden perfor- mance at the 40th annual Golden Horseshoe ‘AAA’ Hockey Tourna- ment in Burlington recently. The Raiders capped their second tournament championship of the season by blanking the Amherst (N.Y.) Knights 5-0 in the final. Goal- tender Kyle Corrigan earned the shutout. It’s the first time in tournament history an Ajax-Pickering team has won. Ajax-Pickering’s Kevin Stiles earned most valuable player hon- ours for the tournament. Stiles led the team in scoring with 11 goals and seven assists in seven games. To get to the final, the Raiders first subdued the host Burlington Eagles in a hard-fought semifinal. Ajax-Pickering scored a 4-3 victory in sudden-death overtime. The OT winner came off the stick of Joshua Cammalleri, who had nine goals and three assists in the tourna- ment. The novice Raiders began tour- nament action by beating the Etobi- coke Bulldogs 6-1. They went on to defeat the Brampton Battalion 5-2 and a team from Amherst, N.Y. 3-2. They finished round-robin play by drubbing the Oshawa Generals 9-1 and the Halton Hurricanes 6-1. Other Raiders’ scorers were Nico Cirone with five goals and six as- sists, Cody McNabb with three goals and five assists, Harry Stefura, Jor- dan Hardie, Noah Vandervinne and Nick Sribny each with two goals and 15 assists among them. An- tonio Defilippis and Tyler Dender each chipped in a goal apiece, with Dender adding five assists. Dennis Cimic, Kyle Johnson, Megan Lavio- lette, Jack Daley and Tyler Munro rounded out the team effort with 13 assists among them. The Raiders’ goaltending tandem of Corrigan and Jacob Gordon al- lowed only 10 goals against for the seven-game tournament. This gritty team of eight-year-olds is undefeated in its last 20 games, as it looks forward to its next tourna- ment in Preston (Cambridge), On- tario in a few weeks.

Panthers mites mighty at Milton tournament Just one more way to get your news thanks to the PICKERING NEWS ADVERTISER newsdurhamregion.com No, this has nothing to do with the weather. I am talking about the fi nancial climate. Prime dropped a 1⁄4 per cent last month and we were all anticipating a drop in mortgage rates, however this has not happened. Rates are 30 basis points higher than they were two months ago. This is a pure money grab to boost profi ts (I guess a few billion net is not enough). Logic dictates a further 1⁄4 per cent drop in prime later this month, but when has logic ever been in play with the so called fi nancial Gods? If prime does drop, there will probably be a 20 to 25 basis point drop in mortgage rates which is still a minimum 1⁄4 per cent higher than it should be, but they bank on the Canadian public to forget when they have been nailed. (for lack of a better word) On a positive note, the housing market shows no sign of slowing down in the immediate future. Prices should continue to rise, hopefully at a moderate pace. At Central Funding our specialty has always been debt consolidation. With mortgage fi nancing available to 100 per cent of current market value (with good income and credit) there has never been a better time to consolidate all your debts. The average savings for our clients is in excess of $1,200 a month. Prime fi rst mortgages are always 1.3 per cent below posted market rates. These savings are huge, on a $250,000 mortgage the savings add up to over $16,000 over fi ve years. Why go any where else, make Central Funding your one stop Mortgage shop. On a personal note, the passing of “my Lab” mans best friend Max has left a huge void in our lives that cannot be fi lled. We will miss your “best weapon” you wagging tail, and your kind face.
