Group who lifted SUV off
woman’s arm in Pickering
among those honoured
By Reka Szekely
rszekely@durhamregion.com
DURHAM — Some acted alone, some with
the help of neighbours and strangers. All of
them responded quickly to a crisis situation
and now they’re all being hailed as heroes.
Durham police honoured 21 people this
year with their annual Citizen Recognition
Awards. They held a ceremony at Wednes-
day’s Regional Council meeting.
Pickering neighbours Vince Rizza and
Paul Butt noticed thick, black smoke coming
from a neighbour’s house in July.
“On a Sunday afternoon, you don’t expect
your neighbour’s house to be on fire,” said
Mr. Butt.
Realizing someone was inside, Mr. Rizza
rushed in and tried to rouse his disoriented
neighbour, who wouldn’t believe his house
was on fire. Mr. Rizza said the smoke was so
thick he could barely see two feet in front of
him.
While he worked on getting his neighbour
out of the house, Mr. Butt used a fire extin-
guisher to douse most of the flames.
“Knowing he was in there, I just had to get
him out. Paul felt the same way,” said Mr.
Rizza.
Jamie Ephraim and Cliff Dunn also acted
quickly.
They were in north Oshawa where a man
was threatening people and kneeling down
in traffic on Ritson Road. An officer tried to
arrest the man, but he made a break for it.
Mr. Ephraim and Mr. Dunn reacted instantly
and helped the officer grab the man and
subdue him while the officer cuffed him.
“It was just one of those holy crap, it’s
happened and it’s over things. It was just
really cool,” said Mr. Dunn, who said he’s
interested in becoming an officer himself.
Both police officers and councillors
thanked the award recipients.
“On behalf of Regional Council and the
citizens of Durham, I want you to know you
folks are what makes Durham a great place,”
said Regional Chairman Roger Anderson.
Police Chief Mike Ewles agreed.
“It’s important their contributions don’t
go unnoticed,” said the chief. “A lot of people
have put their lives at risk.”
Still, the recipients said they didn’t take
action with accolades in mind.
Chris Persaud was one of 11 people who
worked together to raise an SUV off a wom-
an’s arm following a crash in a Pickering
parking lot.
“It’s just good that everyone had the same
idea,” he said. “All of our motive was the
same, to help this person.”
Award recipients
Brenda Murdock and Alex Douglas
- Just prior to an October bank robbery in
Oshawa, Ms. Murdock noticed a man near
her home who appeared to have a gun.
She called the police and provided critical
information.
- Mr. Douglas was a customer in the bank
during the robbery. He followed the suspect
out of the bank and wrote down his license
plate number.
John Blackett
- On New Year’s Eve, an Oshawa man fell
and smashed his arm through a window,
cutting it down to the muscle. Mr. Blackett
helped his neighbour by applying constant
pressure to the wound by using two towels
as tourniquets, preventing the man from
bleeding to death.

PICKERING — Although SR and R
Bay Ridges Ltd. recently applied for
minor variances to its development of
San Francisco By the Bay, some ten-
ants at Bay Ridges Plaza and the adja-
cent Square Boy Plaza believe they’re
major.
At the latest committee of adjust-
ment meeting, SR and R applied for five
minor variances that would allow it to
construct a temporary building adja-
cent to the Square Boy plaza, which the
committee approved unanimously.
Ross Pym, principle planner of de-
velopment review at the City, said in
an interview the building is meant for
Millennium City Veterinary Hospital
(MCVH) “because that’s the only ten-
ant they have left that they have not
dealt with in terms of a relocation.”
Dr. Janet Sawyer, owner of MCVH,
said although she’s not pleased with
the situation, she’s mostly unhappy
with the City since it has allowed the
development to proceed despite much
opposition.
Although the City claims it won’t get
involved in a landlord-tenant issue,
she said “it’s now clear that the City has
gotten involved.
“They’ve given the green light to
enable the landlord to avoid their
contractual duties with us for many
years to come,” she said. “As a business
owner that has only ever served one
community – Pickering - this goes far
beyond disappointment and frustra-
tion.”
Neil Carroll, director of planning
and development, explained staff look
at the application strictly from a land-
use planning perspective.
“We restrict our review to matters
that are set out in the Planning Act,” he
said.
Dr. Sawyer also questioned the con-
tractual agreement between SR and R
and the City that states 1,200 square
metres of retail space must be main-
tained during construction. Mr. Pym
explained that was only until demoli-
tion began (which it has), and after
that, 500 square metres must be main-
tained. The temporary building will
only be 200 square metres, but Mr.
Pym believes the Square Boy plaza
makes up the rest.
Developers were unavailable for
comment.
Judy Gallagher of IDA Pharmacy,
located in the Square Boy Plaza, said
at the meeting that she understands
“minor variances” would have little or
no impact on the surrounding neigh-
bourhood “and that is not the case in
this situation.
“I believe that a change in our city
bylaws regarding this property de-
serves the consideration of our elected
City councillors,” she said. However, it
was never referred to council.
Since there will only be just more
than one metre between the temporary
building and the new structure, she
fears noise, mud, trucks, hammering
and building debris will interfere with
the business. She also worries more
construction equipment will block sig-
nage to the plaza.
William Friedman, representing SR
& R, indicated at the meeting the build-
ing will not affect the existing signage.

Ray Fortune
- In September, while police were
speaking to two fraud suspects in Os-
hawa, one man made a break for it.
Mr. Fortune pointed in the direction
the man was running and then helped
officers control him while he was being
handcuffed.
Jamie Ephraim and Cliff Dunn
- In April, police received reports of
a man threatening people and kneel-
ing down in traffic on Ritson Road
in Oshawa. When a police officer ar-
rived, the man attempted to run. Mr.
Ephraim and Mr. Dunn immediately
sprang into action, helping the officer
grab the man and handcuff him.
Kyle Vanderloo
- In July, a three-car crash in north
Durham caused a truck to smoke heav-
ily and burst into flames. Inside was a
stunned woman and two children. Mr.
Vanderloo, a Brooklin resident, and
an unidentified man pulled all three
victims to safety.
Vince Rizza and Paul Butt
- In July, when he saw thick black
smoke coming from his neighbour’s
Pickering home, Mr. Rizza rushed in-
side and tried to rouse the man, who
was disoriented and wouldn’t believe
the house was on fire. Mr. Butt, another
neighbour, used a fire extinguisher to
extinguish most of the fire until Mr.
Rizza was finally able to get the man on
his feet and out the door.

- When an SUV rolled over, following a

ing lot, the driver’s arm was thrown out
the open window and pinned between
the outside of the door and the pave-
ment. Many people rushed over when
they heard the woman screaming in
pain and crying for help.
A group of 10 men and a woman
formed a line, pushing the car off the
woman’s arm.
Though they couldn’t right the ve-
hicle, they were able to lean it against
a wall and hold it there until an emer-
gency crew arrived and extracted the
woman with the Jaws of Life. Though
she had cuts and scrapes on her arm,
she was saved from serious and long-
lasting injuries.

Renowned Canadian politician
encourages children to never
lose their confidence
By Josie Newman
jnewman@durhamregion.com
AJAX — When Lincoln Alexander Public School
students raised their voices in unison to yell ‘We
are No. 1’, their enthusiasm was spurred on by
their school’s namesake, who was leading the
charge.
A visit Thursday from former lieutenant-gov-
ernor of Ontario Lincoln Alexander to the school
named after him brought smiles to the faces of
students and staff alike.
“Repeat after me -- we will try our best all the
time, we won’t stand for any bullying, we will re-
spect our teachers,” he said loudly from his seat at
the front of the packed gymnasium as the children
echoed his words.
Earlier, as he entered the gymnasium with the
assistance of two school staff members, he waved
his cane at the kids and pointed it in the direction
of the most energetic ones. Several children were
brought to the front by teachers to read out the
character qualities that each letter of his name
represented. “Purolator came by with a great big
box on my birthday and it was filled with gifts
from you. I was impressed at how smart you are
and what good readers and writers you are,” said
Mr. Alexander, currently serving as a chancellor at
the University of Guelph.
His visit to the school on Valentine’s Day
was prompted by principal Marilyn Sinclair who
wanted it to coincide with his 86th birthday on
Jan. 21. A huge collage of pink hearts, labelled
‘100 thankful hearts’, was presented to him, and
several children and their parents gave Mr. Alex-
ander homemade Valentine’s cards following the
presentation.
At an earlier press conference, the first black
Canadian to be elected as an MP told reporters
he’s proud to be an icon of Canadian race rela-
tions.
As well, Mr. Alexander had plenty to say about
the Toronto school board’s initiative to start a
black-only school there -- and he wasn’t compli-
mentary.
“The concept of an Afro-centric school is one of
the dumbest things I’ve ever heard in my life. To
think we have to have a black school so kids here
know what Canada’s all about is silly,” he said.
Despite his playful demeanour, Mr. Alexander
is renowned for climbing his way up from his
humble beginnings as the son of a maid and a
railway porter. Raised in Toronto and New York,
he was appointed federal labour minister by Joe
Clark in 1979 and named lieutenant-governor of
Ontario in 1985, hobnobbing with high-profile
politicians and heads of state until 1991.
A Hamilton resident, Mr. Alexander was recent-
ly named the greatest Hamiltonian of all time and,
in 2006, published a book of his memoirs entitled
‘Go to school, you’re a little black boy’, a phrase he
says his mother Mae Rose would say.
Ms. Sinclair said Mr. Alexander has frequently
been invited to the Church Street North school
since its inception in 1992, and is pleased with
the cordial, relaxed relationship he has with her,
the other staff, and students. It is one of three el-
ementary schools and one high school in Ontario
named after him.

during visit to Ajax school
Local boy named after
first black Canadian MP
Gilbert Estridge wasn’t a father yet when Lin-
coln Alexander was first appointed lieutenant-gov-
ernor of Ontario back in 1985.
“I just knew I wanted my son named after him
because I want him to always aspire to be like
Lincoln Alexander. I had never heard of anyone of
black descent with such a high profile in Canada,”
said Mr. Estridge, posing for a picture with Mr. Al-
exander and his son Lincoln Alexander, now 8, on
Thursday.
A pastor who lives in Ajax, Mr. Estridge has
four children whose names all start with the letter
A.
“A’s. This is how well I expect them to do in
school,” he quipped.

DURHAM — Despite pleas from Ajax and
Oshawa councillors, Regional council is
sticking with recent mid-day service cuts on
some bus routes.
On Wednesday, Durham Region’s transit
commission defeated a motion from Ajax
Mayor Steve Parish asking for the return of
mid-day service to the M26 Duffins Route in
Ajax and the 5 Central Park in Oshawa.
The route reductions started in January
and were prompted by Durham Region
Transit’s $2.3 million deficit. Since then, of
the 87 complaints about the service cuts, 22
were about the Central Park route and 24
were about the Duffins.
The commission, made up of all of Re-
gional Council, voted 14-7 against the mo-
tion.
The push to re-instate the mid-day routes
came from Oshawa and Ajax. In late January,
Ajax council passed a motion asking mid-
day service be returned.
“If we want to get our fare box percent-
age up, we have to invest in a system people
want to ride,” said Mayor Parish.
Oshawa mayor John Gray supported his
counterpart’s motion.
“We have to make sure we instill confi-
dence with the transit users that the system
we put in place will be there,” said Mayor
Gray.
Scugog mayor Marilyn Pearce pointed out
some areas in the northern part of the Re-
gion have no service at all.
“I sympathize with some of the routes that
have seen mid-day cuts, but they’re specific
times when boardings were not meeting
the standard,” she said, adding it would be
inconsistent to return the service.
And, while some, such as Ajax Coun. Scott
Crawford, argued the number of complaints
warranted another look at the issue, others
disagreed. “There isn’t anyone in this room
who can’t call 24 people and get 24 names,”
said Regional Chairman Roger Anderson.
Clarington councillor Mary Novak pointed
out the second round of adjustments hadn’t
occurred yet.
“In our case it doesn’t take effect until
March 1 and (we) won’t have that push back
until it happens,” she said.

Employment searching made easy for newcomers
Wrestler paralysed
at Ajax meet talks
about his recovery
By Melissa Mancini
mmancini@durhamregion.com
DURHAM — Doctors told Mi-
chael Box he would likely never be
able to move from the shoulders
down again. They were wrong.
Three weeks ago 16-year-old Mi-
chael, who sustained a devastating
spinal cord injury while he com-
peted in a high school wrestling
match in early December, was able
to wave his right arm back and
forth and up and down.
“I didn’t stop, I just kept moving
my hand back and forth,” said the
Oshawa teen while swinging his
hand wildly as he describes the
exciting moment. He got nurses to
call his parents for him immedi-
ately so he could share the news.
But the road to recovery for Mi-
chael hasn’t been all triumphs.
A collapsed lung, infections, bed
sores from the lack of movement
and multiple heart failures have
been the reality of his daily life.
The Central Collegiate stu-
dent was at the Hospital for Sick
Children in Toronto until he was
moved to Bloorview Kids Rehab
in mid-January. At Bloorview life
is far from easy, but in his quiet,
private room he is able to get lots
of sleep. And he needs it to get
through the long days of classes,
occupational therapy and physio-
therapy.
“School is really tough,” he said.
“They ask me so many questions.
I can’t sit in the chair for very long
because I get so tired. During the
day I sleep a lot.”
His room at Bloorview looks
like any other teen’s, save for the
hospital bed. Wrestling posters,
photos of loved ones and cards
from his recent 16th birthday party
hang on the walls. There is a col-
lection of DVDs and Harley David-
son gear because motorcycles are
one of Michael’s passions. There
is a teddy bear wearing a Harley
T-shirt and a necklace with a Su-
perman emblem on it, from the
Christopher Reeve foundation.
The pendant was given to Mi-
chael by another teen whose story
is similar. The teen, also injured in
a wrestling match, sustained the
same injury as Michael. He is now
paraplegic. He visited Michael re-
cently and answered all his ques-
tions.
“He gave me more hope,” he
said of the visit from the teen, who
now plays sledge hockey. “If he
can get that far, I can too.”
Michael said he is encouraged
by the progress of the other kids
at the rehab centre. He said he
recently saw a fellow patient learn-
ing to walk again. “It inspires me
and makes me try harder. It makes
me want to go beyond my limits.”
The future is scary because it is
so uncertain, Michael said. But he
also said there are so many things
he wants to do, like see his favou-
rite wrestler fight.
“I always wanted to own my
own motorcycle shop, so I am still
going to try for that,” Michael said,
his eyes filling with tears.
“I am not giving up yet. I’m
going to see where I can get with
this.”

I t seemed fitting, somehow, that Lin-
coln Alexander visited his namesake
school on Valentine’s Day, the interna-
tional day of love.
It seemed equally as fitting that the visit
was made during Black History Month. A
man who’s accomplished great things in
his life despite the odds and advises others
to never lose their confidence, Mr. Alexan-
der always has his eye and his attention on
the person in front of him.
“You’re good. You should get a promo-
tion,” he told one reporter who asked sev-
eral questions about racial equality.
“I love your coat. Where’d you get it -
- Holt Renfrew?” he quipped to another
reporter.
“She’s amazing,” he marvelled during
the school assembly when recognition
was given to the only staff member who’s
remained at the school since its inception
in 1992.
Smiles and admiration were given to
young girls who read Mr. Alexander’s
character traits out loud, while affirmation
and handshakes were given to young boys
who did everything from a plaque pre-
sentation to break-dancing for the former
lieutenant-governor of Ontario.
Now 86 and walking with the assistance
of a cane and two helpers, Mr. Alexander
chose to give the kids a pep rally about
their abilities and destiny rather than a
long-winded spiel about his own accom-
plishments. He seemed to revel in their
youthfulness and the fun of it all.
The word love, endemic to Valentine’s
Day, was used several times by school staff
and Mr. Alexander.
“I came to visit today because I just
turned 86 and because it’s Valentine’s Day
-- love and kisses and all that,” said Mr.
Alexander during a reception prior to the
assembly as he hugged two women close
to him while he mugged for a photo.
Why would a man with the high politi-
cal and community stature of Lincoln
Alexander bother with every person who
crosses his path -- with an affirming word,
an encouraging gesture, an understanding
look?
Lincoln Alexander was raised in the
1920s in a Canada where, to be black, he
was in the minority. His mother Mae Rose,
a maid from the West Indies, encouraged
her son to always try his best, never to lose
his confidence, and to always remember
who he was. His life has borne testimony
to his mother’s advice to never lose his
confidence. He has been an MP, a federal
Minister of Labour, the chairman of the
Worker’s Compensation Board and, final-
ly, the Lieutenant Governor of Ontario.
In the preface to his recently published
book ‘Go to school, you’re a little black
boy’, Mr. Alexander says he wants it to
influence people “who think they can’t do
something or think they’ll never make it,
and I’d like to think I’m helping convince
others to never give up.”
I don’t know how many copies of the
book have been sold, but I do know the
impact Mr. Alexander had on me and,
judging by their reaction, on the students
at Lincoln Alexander Public School. It
seems your wish has come true, Linc.

New Family Day holiday should be about being together
T omorrow is Ontario’s first Family
Day, and you should make the most
of it.
While some have criticized the name
of the new holiday, others have ques-
tioned the Liberal government’s motives
in establishing it, and still more people
have said the government rushed it, it’s
a cherished day off for many of us, in the
dead of winter, yet. It’s also an opportunity
to spend some (pardon the cliche) family
time with your spouse, significant other
and the kids.
We’re all so busy these days that,
strangely, when we have time off, many of
us are lost and look for ways to fill it.
We suggest you take the opposite
approach for this first Family Day, at least
for part of the day. Instead of scrounging
up something, anything, to do to get out
of the house, stay at home. Rent a few
movies. Do a puzzle. Play a board game
(remember those?). Have a family dinner
together, perhaps one in which everybody
contributes, from the setting of the table,
to making and serving up the food, to
cleaning up afterwards. Enjoy a relaxing
day at home as if it were a rainy day at the
cottage. We said at least for part of the day
because the kids will likely be aching to
get outside with their friends. That’s fine,
but ensure you are together for some of
the holiday, even if it means a rare Sunday
night when no one has to go to work or
school the next day.
Now, if you are looking for something to
do together, outside of the home, there are
a number of options. The Pickering Rec-
reation Complex has a lot going on from 6
a.m. to 5 p.m., including Family Art from
1 to 3 p.m., a public swim from 1 to 4 p.m.
and much more. The Ajax Community
Centre is open from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m., with
public skating and swimming. There’s also
a free Family Fun Fitness Circuit from 11
a.m. to 1 p.m.
Looking for something different? How
about a family hike, short or long, in the
Rouge or at the Greenwood Conservation
Area. Many people miss out on the plea-
sures of a winter hike because they con-
sider it an activity for the warmer seasons.
But, if properly dressed and prepared, it
can be a lot of fun, as long as it isn’t too
frigid out. Bring a backpack or two with
lots of water, snacks and explore these
treasures close to home together.
Most of all, remember some people
don’t have families and it’s a great thing to
be a part of one.

Take part in Earth
Hour challenge
To the editor:
At 8 p.m. on March 29, 2008, the citizens
and businesses of dozens of cities around
the world will turn off their lights for
one hour to create awareness of climate
change.
Participating cities in Earth Hour 2008
include Toronto, Montreal, Tel Aviv,
Copenhagen, Chicago and Sydney, Aus-
tralia (where, during the first Earth Hour
in 2007, power usage dropped more than
10 per cent).
As well, many towns and cities in
Ontario and across Canada have opted to
participate in Earth Hour.
As of right now, no cities in Durham
Region appear to have officially joined the
movement. Hopefully, that will change.
However, if it does not, I would still urge
all residents and businesses to take part
and turn off all lights and non-essential
appliances for one hour.
It’s a small thing to do, but it could mean
a lot.

Editor’s Note: The Town of Ajax and
the City of Pickering are participating in

DURHAM — When Blair Cun-
ningham came up with a business
plan idea for his Grade 11 Entrepre-
neurship class last year he had no
idea about how lucrative a path he
was paving for himself.
Not only was it financially reward-
ing as a summer job, but Blair, 16,
said he gained a wealth of practical
life lessons about starting a business
from scratch.
His plan was for a company he
called Returns Are Us.
“It was a pickup service that would
collect empty beer, wine and liquor
bottles,” he said.
He’d pay 50 per cent of the return
deposit to the clients in exchange for
the ease of having front-door pickup
service on a weekly basis.
Curious to see if it would work, he
hit the pavement last Easter week-
end.
His teacher, Kristie Lee, warned
him he would need to collect a high
volume to make money. After all,
the beer store offers 10 cents for
returned beer bottles while wine
bottles fetch 20 cents.
Despite a shoulder injury he was
still nursing at the time, he set to
work collecting bottles and sur-
prised himself and his teacher.
“I came back after three hours and
I’d made $75,” he said. “I remember
the look on (Ms. Lee’s) face. She was
surprised.”
One thing led to another and
when a representative from the
Business Advisory Centre Durham
(BACD) came to his school, Sinclair
Secondary, to talk about the pro-
vincially funded Summer Company
Program, he decided to apply to be a
real-life entrepreneur.
Blair was one of seven Durham Re-
gion students accepted last summer
into the annual provincial Ministry
of Small Business and Entrepreneur-
ship program--Summer Company.
It helps local young entrepreneurs
get their own summer companies
up and running.
The program is now looking for
youth applicants who want to start
their own business this year. It gives
each participant up to $3,000 in start-
up money, sets them up with a men-
tor and provides training though the
BACD.
Applications are being accepted
for 12 local spots in this year’s Sum-
mer Company program, offered
through the BACD office. The BACD
also provides older clients with up-
to-date and relevant business infor-
mation according to their stage of
development.
Ms. Lee, Blair’s mentor in the pro-
gram, said it’s exciting to see young
people able to apply their theoretical
knowledge learned in the classroom
to a hands-on, real-world experience
and find success in the process.
“The award offsets startup costs,”
she said. “Even if you don’t make
a lot of money it’s worth it to do
something like this to learn about
the business world.
Blair used his seed funds to pur-
chase his self-designed company T-
shirts and hats and a garden cart for
pickups. He also designed flyers and
distributed them.
“One thing I learned is that you
can change your business plan,” he
said.
When his business seemed to be
slowing down at the start of July, he
decided to target cottage country, a
decision instrumental in his success.
He set up shop at his grandparents’
cottage near Apsley.
“It really exploded,” he said. “I was
really surprised. It was crazy.”
Ms. Lee has used his story and
those of several other student par-
ticipants as case studies in the en-
trepreneurship course she teaches.
One former student found success
offering summer backyard swim-
ming lessons. Another created
and applied temporary tattoos at
public events. Each made several
thousands of dollars in sales, said
BACD’s Carol Ann Walker.
Past participants have launched
successful careers after starting
with the summer program, such
as Heather Frize, whose jewelry
business, Ecstatic, operates out of
Toronto’s Distillery District.
Those success stories inspire oth-
ers, including those at the BACD,
she said.
“We want students to see busi-
ness as a viable career option,” said
Ms. Walker. “Small business is the
backbone of the Ontario economy.”

DURHAM — Linda Snowden is
proud that her family farm is one of
the three beef herds within Oshawa’s
boundaries.
She is even prouder that her 80
cows are naturally raised, unlike
those on many larger enterprises
where antibiotics, growth-hormone
injections and inhumane living con-
ditions are the norm for livestock.
For cows on her 750-acre Enniskil-
len farm, even their feed is natural
-- farm-grown hay and corn -- and
the cows are allowed to graze in the
fields.
“We have gone back to traditional
ways,” Ms. Snowden said. “Consum-
ers are asking for that.”
And if that’s not enough to con-
vince vegetarians to revert to eating
meat products like Snowden Farm’s
beef pies, sausage rolls, lasagna,
shepherd’s pie and cuts of beef, there
is the fact the products are home-
made and all natural.
“Because we have gone the natu-
ral route, it takes a little longer to
raise an animal, but we decided this
was the way to go,” Ms. Snowden
said. “The response has been phe-
nomenal.”
Sales of their products at farmers’
markets in Newcastle and Newmar-
ket have tripled since they started
selling them three years ago. The
Snowdens are tapping into the
consumer trend for locally pro-
duced “farm fresh” products that is
sweeping much of the industrialized
world.
One of 70 members of the Durham
Farm Fresh Marketing Association
(DFFMA), Ms. Snowden attended
the association’s recent workshop
organized with Durham Region’s
Economic Development and Tour-
ism Department.
The aim was to get ideas from
local growers, food producers and
other stakeholders about developing
the logistical support to get Durham
Region produce into the hands of
local consumers.
Held at Scugog Community Cen-
tre in Port Perry last Tuesday, it fea-
tured David Hughes, a British expert
in local food marketing.
Local “farm fresh foods” are the
buzz words of the food industry and
represent a growing opportunity for
regional producers to capture an in-
creasing share of the local consumer
food market, said Mr. Hughes, also a
university professor who travels the
world speaking on the topic.

AJAX — Six weeks after having a brain
tumour removed, Ward 4 local Councillor
Pat Brown is back on the job.
On Monday, Coun. Brown attended her
first council meeting since having an opera-
tion on Dec. 27.
An emotional Coun. Brown took the time
to thank everyone for their wishes. She also
thanked the team at St. Michael’s Hospital,
where the surgery was done, and the Rouge
Valley Ajax and Pickering hospital, where
she underwent rehabilitation.
“It was an eye-opener and an experience
to have gone through this,” Coun. Brown
added, saying she’s looking forward to work-
ing with her council colleagues again.
In an interview, Coun. Brown said her
long-term prognosis is good, although she
noted, “I’m not totally recovered. I need
to get my walking correct. I have to get my
strength back.”
Coun. Brown said she “didn’t have any
fore-warning. I had no headaches” prior to
Dec. 27. On that day, “I had shooting pain
in the head. I laid down. My son was there
and my whole right side was paralyzed. I was
semi-conscious.”
She was told that people can have a brain
tumour “for years and die with them,” and
never have a problem with them.
A tumour isn’t a problem until they swell
or bleed out, which is what happened to
Coun. Brown. “It bled out and that caused
the pain and paralysis.” She remained at
St. Michael’s until she could be transported
back to the Ajax hospital.
“Toronto was Toronto. It provided the
expertise for the operation. I welcomed the
opportunity to come home and to rehab,”
she said. “I can’t say enough about the rehab
here in Ajax. It speaks to the issue of being
close to home.” For five weeks, she wasn’t
able to walk. “It speaks to the expertise at
Ajax” that she’s able to move and doesn’t
need an assistive device.

(NC) According to a recent survey by the Canadian Veterinary
Medical Association (CVMA), Canadian veterinarians feel that only
25 per cent of pet owners enquire about dental health. Considering
new studies show there is a strong correlation between good oral
health and the overall wellness of your pet, dental care should be
an important factor in your pet’s daily routine.
“There are a number of easy ways to look after your pet’s teeth
from the comfort of your own home,” says Dr. Clayton MacKay,
DVM, Director of Veterinary Affairs, Hill’s Pet Nutrition Canada.
The fi rst step is to become familiar with your pet’s mouth. Look
inside so you can recognize any changes that may occur. Using
your veterinarian as a resource is also important. Advocate for a
professional dental check-up each visit and ask lots of questions.
Make sure you brush your pet’s teeth daily. In addition to brushing,
chewing activities can help serve as an effective maintenance
tool, and feeding your pet a specially formulated dental food and
treats can also keep plaque and tartar build-up at a minimum.
Tips for Brushing Your Pet’s Teeth:
• Avoid restraining your pet
• Keep the brushing sessions short and sweet
• Give your pet lots of praise and be positive
• Move through the brushing process in steps over a few weeks
(start by using your fi nger, then add gauze over the fi nger, then
use a toothbrush)
• Always use a specially designed toothbrush for pets and never
use human toothpaste as it can harm your cat or dog
We all spend a lot of time looking after our pearly whites, so why
not do the same for our pets? It will help maintain overall good
health.

It’s February. It’s a big milestone
in the school year. For High
School students, February means
a new semester. For all students,
it means it’s the halfway point in
the school year. That’s right, there
are only four months of school left
until June.
That means that there are four
months left to make this grade the
best grade ever!
In order to take full advantage of
the remaining time, Oxford Learn-
ing recommends parents and
children take an inventory of the
struggles that they encountered
over the last few months. The
trouble spots that your child dealt
with during the last semester/last
few months are a good indication
of what struggles your child may
face in the upcoming months.
Take inventory. Did your child:
• Leave homework until the last
minute?
• Stay up late cramming?
• Get frustrated?
• Hide assignments?
• Dislike teachers?
• Have falling marks in a
particular subject?
Did you answer yes to
any of these questions?
(We think that you may
have, because, let’s face
it, many kids struggle
with some of these is-
sues.)
Any ‘yes’ answers mean
that your child could
probably benefi t from
some professional sup-
port and structure for
the remaining months of
school. More than just
bringing up a mark in a
particular subject, pro-
fessional tutoring can
help your child:
• Study better
• Get more organized
• Think more clearly
• Manage frustrations
• Avoid last-minute studying
• Improve his or her attitude to-
wards school
Make the rest of this year count.
The clock may be ticking on the
school year, but there is still time
to make this grade the best grade
ever!
Beginning with an in depth as-
sessment, Oxford learning will
design an individualized learn-
ing program for each child to
build their academic and learning
skills, and their confi dence and
motivation for school. There is no
time like the present to let Oxford
make a difference for your child.
Call Oxford Learning in Ajax 683-
6660, Pickering 420-3141 or visit
www.oxfordlearning.com to fi nd
out how to help your child achieve
their full potential in school this
year!

AJAX — Mayor Steve Parish received
some help on how to improve the Ajax envi-
ronment from local students recently.
At an eco/spirit assembly at Roland Mi-
chener Public School, Mayor Parish spoke
on how the Town of Ajax is helping to con-
tribute to a greener community and how the
students could help out in their own way.
“Parents usually tell you what to do,”
Mayor Parish said to the students. “But,
it is my view that on the environment it’s
the young people telling their parents what
should be done.”
The assembly was led by school princi-
pal Peggy Jo Scott who, along with several
groups of students, outlined small ways that
everyone can reduce energy use and the
amount of waste they produce.
Mayor Parish offered his own suggestions
for students on how to be more environmen-
tally friendly.
“One of the ways students make a real dif-
ference is they go home to their parents and
they say: we should be putting more stuff
in our blue box. You know we shouldn’t be
driving for that little trip down the road, I
should be walking to school,” he said.
The Town has been taking part in sev-
eral programs to support the environment.
Ajax is part of a competition with the City
of Pickering to see who can reduce more
waste. The new fire headquarters being built
at Salem and Rossland roads is designed
with some of the latest environmental fea-
tures, including geothermal heating. All new
trucks bought for Ajax’s operations depart-
ment are hybrid vehicles and green spaces
continue to be protected.
“We are doing all of these things to make
our town cleaner and greener and a better
place to live,” Mayor Parish said.
Roland Michener is part of the Eco-
Schools program, which means it has
achieved a series of waste and energy reduc-
tion goals. Mayor Parish and the Durham
District School Board are hoping to make all
the schools in Ajax Eco-Schools.
“If you really want to make a difference in
the environment and in your community,
you got to have your young people really
into it and enthusiastic. The Eco-Schools
program is very much a part of that,” Mayor
Parish said in an interview.
Parish implores students to take lead on environment

Some of the members of the Roland Michener Public School Eco Team are Phelisha Cassup along with Rachel Della Palme, Celeste Bogle, teacher
and Eco Leader Marlene Phemister and Parth Chhasatia.

The year’s busiest wedding
season is just around the cor-
ner, and The Spring Wedding
Show 2008 in Ajax-Pickering
returns to help couples plan the per-
fect day.
The popular event, brought to you
by the News Advertiser, is the longest
running wedding show in Durham
Region, and was even voted a Favou-
rite Community Event by readers last
year in the Readers Choice Awards for
Ajax/Pickering.
The Spring Wedding Show 2008
is a one-stop shop for everything, in-
cluding bridal gowns, tuxedos, pho-
tographers, cakes, limousines, fl orists,
wedding planners, caterers, hair and
make-up professionals, music and
more.
With only local vendors in atten-
dance, it’s the perfect place for brides
and grooms to fi nd out what services
are available close to home, without
the hassle of going downtown.
“I encourage local brides to go to
other shows and see what’s out there
– and then see what they can get in
their own community,” says Laurie
McCaig, event coordinator. “Ajax and
Pickering has a lot to offer their local
brides and grooms.”
This year’s wedding extravaganza
will be held once again at The Ajax
Convention Centre on February 24th,
with doors opening at 11 a.m. Guests
will be greeted with the lovely sounds
of bagpiper Dave McGonigal, and of-
fered an array of
hors d’oeurves and refreshments
provided by the Ajax Convention
Centre as they make their way around
the beautifully decorated hall.
Everyone is welcome, from grooms
and brides-to-be, to their attendants
and family members.
McCaig says brides are given a spe-
cial badge to identify them to vendors,
ensuring they get the attention they
deserve.
“Vendors like that and brides like it
too,” says McCaig. “It lets them know
they’re talking to the right person...
and they can win prizes!”
The afternoon wraps up with a
fashion show at 3 p.m., where
Bridal Desires and Tuxedo
Royale will present the new-
est trends and styles in wedding
fashion. The best in hair and make-
up will be provided by V2 Beauty
Salon and Make Up by Lena.
Throughout the day, there
will be many fabulous prizes
given out, including more
than $2,000 worth of gifts
from event sponsor The
Bay/Home Outfi tters.
One lucky winner, will
win a “Romantic Night’s
Stay” at the Ajax Hilton
Garden Inn. This draw
is open for anyone at-
tending the show.
With 42 booths, in
18 categories, the day will
be packed full of fun and infor-
mation for guests.
Tickets are $6 for one or
$10 for two at the door. For
the fi rst time, The Spring
Wedding Show is on-
line as well. Tickets
can be purchased
there for $4, as
well as at lo-
cal merchants
listed on the
website and
in the News
Advertiser.
Parking is
free.

The region’s longest-running wedding show
is now online, making it even easier for
brides and grooms to fi nd everything they
need to plan their special day.
By clicking on www.durhamweddingsource.
com, couples will have access to The Spring Wedding
Show 2008 vendors long after the event is over.
Show vendors are listed, with links to their web-
sites as well as contact information and directions on
how to get there.
“It’s a great hands-on type of site,” says Laurie
McCaig, coordinator of The Spring Wedding Show.
“Brides today are so internet savvy, it seemed like a
natural progression for the show.”
McCaig says having a website built around the
spring and fall wedding shows allows brides and
grooms to have the same access they have to ven-
dors that day, for a full three months.
Vendor websites have been available since mid-
January and will remain online until mid-March.
“If a bride didn’t get a chance to talk to a vendor,
or wanted to fi nd out more about them, they can go
on the
website and fi nd
out everything they need,” says McCaig.
Guests who buy tickets to The Spring Wedding
Show online can enter to win an engagement photo,
courtesy of Pickering Photo, valued at $200.
To get a taste of what the spring gala has to offer,
there’s a short video with highlights from The Fall
Wedding Show 2007, provided by Dynamic Digital
Media.
Long after the event is over, Durham Wedding
Source will help you fi nalize your wedding with a
special ‘Planning 101’ section, where you’ll fi nd tips
on things such as choosing the right wine etc.
The wedding website, proudly hosted by the

What will you
be Wearing?
Whether you’re looking for the hottest
trends in bridal gowns, or a style
that sets your guy apart, the Fash-
ion Show at The Spring Wedding
Show 2008 will have it all.
You’ll see the newest looks in wedding attire,
compliments of Bridal Desires in Ajax and Tuxedo
Royale at the Pickering Towne Centre.
They’ll showcase formalwear for everyone in
your wedding, from the fl ower girl and ring
bearer to attendants, parents and, of course,
you.
Expect to see a lot of vintage lace this
year, says Bridal Desires owner, Joanna
Carter. She says the vintage look,
with pearls and lace, is this year’s
freshest look.
So is ivory, whether it’s a
classic princess-style gown or
a simple sundress style suited
for a beach or destination wed-
ding.
Bridal Desires will also
showcase its wide selection of
accessories, from traditional ti-
aras and veils to trendy head-
pieces featuring feathers and
jewels or a garland of fl ow-
ers.
“We have a dress for
everyone, with a price
range to accommo-
date any budget,” says
Carter, adding models
from size eight to
14, tall and short,
will showcase her
gowns.
Bridal Desires
specializes in help-
ing brides fi nd the
‘perfect’ dress for
their shape and
personality,
whether it’s
a strapless
gown, hal-
ter-style,
a corset
back or a billowing Cinderella gown.
“There are no rules anymore, so the possibilities
are endless,” she says.
The same holds true for the groom, who can opt
for anything from the classic black tuxedo to a crisp
white dinner jacket or the newest trend – stripes
– in either bold, white “chalk” stripes or tone on
tone.
Tuxedo Royale will also model several
looks, whether it’s a classic vest with
a patterned Windsor tie or a James
Bond-style cummerbund and bow-
tie.
Tuxedo Royale carries a wide
range of sizes, in all styles, right
down to a boys size three for the
ring bearer.
With 13 locations across
southern Ontario,
Tuxedo Royale
can easily ac-
commodate
out-of-town
attendants.
Every loca-
tion has a full
showroom,
so the guys
can see, touch
and try on dif-
ferent looks and
styles.
To keep your
special day as
stress-free as
possible, Tuxedo
Royale also of-
fers a fi tting three
days prior to
your wedding.
It’s your day.
Look your best
with cutting
edge fashion
from Bridal De-
sires and Tuxe-
do Royale – your
local specialists in
formalwear.

Every bride wants to be beautiful on her
wedding day, which usually means look-
ing like an even better version of herself;
not like an over-powering version of
someone else.
Leave it to MakeUp by Lena and V2 Beauty Sa-
lon, both in Pickering, to bring out your natural
beauty on your wedding day.
“The biggest fear most brides have of using a
makeup artist is that they won’t look like them-
selves,” says Lena Gregory of MakeUp by Lena.
With Gregory behind the makeup brush, there’s
no reason to fear. She offers brides an initial consul-
tation to discuss everything from the colours in the
wedding party to the bride’s personality.
She then does their makeup exactly as she will
on their wedding day, so the bride can relax, know-
ing she’ll be radiant walking down the aisle.
MakeUp by Lena is the offi cial makeup artist for
The Spring Wedding Show 2008. You can see her
work as she prepares the models at her booth. They
range in age from eight to 50, to give you a sense
of how Gregory can work with everyone in your
wedding party.
She says the trend for brides is still toward neu-
tral shades for the eyes – bronzes and taupes – and
more of the pinks and peaches for the cheeks.
It’s the perfect complement to the soft, natural
‘Hollywood’ curls – one of the hottest bridal hair-
styles today.
While up-dos are still a classic, especially with
an ornate or detailed dress, many brides are striv-
ing for a ‘Katherine Hepburn’ look , according to
Sylvia Barone of V2 Beauty Salon, The Wedding
Show’s offi cial hair stylist.
“They’re wearing fl owing, A-line dresses that
are not too fussy, so if the dress is simple, the hair
can be the focus,” she says.
Half-up, half-down hairstyles, with lots of loose
curls, create a soft, romantic look, as does a fl oor
length veil, tucked in the curls.
Of course, an up-do encircled with a tiara is a
beautiful style for the bride looking to be a princess
for a day – a look (last name) considers her special-
ty. Her late mother spent hours teaching her how
to pin the hair in just the right place to achieve a
beautiful look that would last all day.
Both Gregory and Barone have more than twen-
ty years, each, behind them, making them true pro-
fessionals in the art of creating beautiful brides.
So be you, naturally, on your special day with
the help of MakeUp by Lena and V2 Beauty Salon.

You’ve dreamed of this day for so long and
spent months planning for it. Now it’s time
to simply enjoy the evening with Sight and
Sound Music.
“A lot of weddings today are social as opposed to
formal,” says owner Steve Ernst. “Most people just
want to have fun. From formal to frenzied – that’s
what we offer.”
Sight and Sound Music does more than just play
music. Ernst says his professional DJs drive the eve-
ning, by acting as “party hosts” to the crowd.
“Just putting a CD in and pushing play is easy,”
he says. “The hard part is getting people involved
and knowing what songs to play and when.”
A month before the wedding, he meets with the
bride and groom to fi nd out exactly what they ex-
pect: is it a young crowd that likes to dance, or older
guests who want to socialize?
With a repertoire of more than 40,000 songs to
choose from, there’s something for everyone’s mu-
sical tastes. Sight and Sound brings about 15,000 to
every wedding, even though only about 60 will be
played.
“If it’s danceable and recognizable, we have it,”
he says.
He says couple’s choosing a DJ shouldn’t base
their decision on price alone. He says there are a
number of things to consider, such as whether they
belong to a trade organization, the Canadian Online
Disc Jockey Association or the Wedding Council of
Ontario.
With more than 30 years in the business, and over
10 years as the offi cial music sponsor of The Wedding
Show, Sight and Sound is the DJ for your wedding.

The trend toward get-
ting married later in
life has created some
stress for guests: what
to give a new couple that’s use-
ful and something they don’t
already have at home?
The National Gift Registry
at the Bay / Home Outfi tters,
sponsor of The Spring Wed-
ding Show 2008, can make that
decision easier for them.
The process is simple, easy
to use and accessible to all of
your guests, whether they live
in Durham region, across Can-
ada or overseas.
A gift consultant will guide
you and your groom through
the process of choosing gifts:
what is your taste, what price
range would your like to offer,
how many guests are coming,
how many wedding-related
events will be held, would you
prefer gifts or gift cards?
Then the fun begins as you
and your fi ancé walk through
the store, scanner in hand, add-
ing everything you’ve ever
dreamed of to your wish list.
You can add items from
both the Bay and Home Out-
fi tters and you can visit larger
locations later on to add more
items if you would like.
“Between the two stores,
there’s a huge variety of items
to choose from,” says Olivia
Quintanilha, department man-
ager of
gift registry at the Bay in
Pickering.
All your guests have to do
is print off your wish list, avail-
able at either store, and start
shopping.
If they would prefer to give
money, gift cards are listed
and can be redeemed after the
wedding for anything still on
your list, or redeemed toward
your honeymoon if you book
through Maritime Travel.
For guests who can’t make
the wedding, but would still
like to send a gift, your list is
available online and the gift
will be sent to the store where
you are registered.
Quintanilha says setting up
a gift registry is not only prac-
tical, it’s a lot of fun for a new
couple as they set up a home
together.
“Today a lot of the guys like
to have a lot of say,” she says.
“They like to choose the din-
nerware they’re going to eat on
every day, the crystal they’re
going to drink from, the linens
they’re going to use.”
But what if you end up with
only six place settings instead
of the eight you registered for?
Or you get one towel, rather
than two?
The Bay / Home Outfi tters
offers a ‘completion program’
that allows you to buy what’s
left on your list at sale prices.
Quintanilha says, ultimate-
ly, the gift registry takes the
stress off of everyone.
“People like it because
it’s easy,” she says.

All the planning in the
world can often not
prepare the bride and
groom for last minute
and unexpected expenses that come
up through the course of a wedding.
Some common expenses that are of-
ten overlooked but can quickly add
up include:
1. Parking at the reception ven-
ue
2. Corkage fee for wine and li-
quor brought into the recep-
tion venue
3. Cake-cutting fees
4. Overtime fees for reception
staff and limo driver
5. Tips and taxes
To ensure suffi cient cash fl ow to
cover a wedding’s expenses a per-
sonal line of credit in addition to
a current credit card could be con-
sidered. A line of credit like CIBC’s
Personal Line of Credit can give
holders the security and fl exibility
to easily access cash all at a lower
rate of interest. Although access to
cash offers a great convenience it is
important to budget and prioritize
costs associated with the big day.
A conversation with your fi nancial
advisor can help you understand
how you can best fi nance them.

CIBC’s borrowing solutions visit

Celebrating
20 years
in business
Your wedding day is the
perfect time to stop and
smell the roses — or the
daisies or the tulips or
the hydrangea. A bride’s fl ower
options, from her bouquet to the
centrepieces, are virtually limitless.
If you’re having a diffi cult time
choosing the right blooms, consid-
er the type of bride you are. There’s
a perfect fl ower for everyone. Here
are some suggestions depending
upon your own personal style.
THE CLASSIC BRIDE
Simple, sophisticated and time-
less describes the classic bride. She
follows all the rules of wedding eti-
quette, and she takes tradition seri-
ously. White roses or stephanotis
with pearl pins in the centre are the
ideal fl owers for the classic bride’s
bouquet. The classic woman’s
bridesmaids carry cascading roses
in shades that match their dresses.
Her groom and ushers sport rose
and baby’s breath boutonnières.
Long-stemmed white roses in tall
vases that allow guests to see one
another make for traditional, taste-
ful reception centerpieces.
THE MODERN BRIDE
This bride is up on all the hot-
test wedding trends, and she’s
more than happy to include them
in her big day. She is in vogue and
willing to think outside the box.
When it comes to the bouquet,
she should consider single-fl ower
monochromatic nosegays or calla
lilies in white or a bright color. Cal-
la lilies in various shades — from
yellow to crimson — are ideal for
the modern girl’s attendants. Her
groom might stick with the tradi-
tional rose boutonnière or simply
a silk handkerchief tucked in his
front pocket, depending upon the
affair’s degree of formality. Wild-
fl owers for centrepieces or tow-
ering trays of cookies or another
conversation piece are key signs of
a modern bride.
THE GLAMOROUS BRIDE
Diva is the fi rst word that comes
to mind when you hear about the
glamorous bride. Everything she
does makes a dramatic statement.
And her fl owers — or lack thereof
— are no different. A glamourous
bride who prefers to make a state-
ment with fl owers should choose
something like orchids, peonies,
giant peonies, or black-magic ros-
es. This bride often chooses more
sleek and simple fl ower arrange-
ments for her bridemaids — if
she includes them — because she
should be the centre of attention.
THE ROMANTIC BRIDE
She wants to be a princess for
a day and often wears a big frilly
dress with lots of regal details. The
romantic bride chooses fl owers that
are cascading and pastel. Consider
dahlias, a baby’s breath cloud or a
nosegay in a silver or gold cone-
shaped vase called a tussy mussy.
Tea roses are a great choice for the
bridesmiads, and the fl ower girl
wears a wreath of baby’s breath
in her hair. Decorative reception
fl owers should be soft and demure
in colour.
THE BEACH BRIDE
This girl knows when the surf’s
up, and she wants to smell the salt
of the ocean when she says, “I do.”
Beach brides often dress in a slinky
dress with little detail. Therefore,
the bouquet should be eye-catch-
ing. Something like spiky blue
veronica with hydrangea, white
amaryllis, sunfl owers or birds of
paradise can make a statement.
The groom wears linen and goes
sans fl owers. The bridesmaids are
more likely to have a tropical fl ow-
er in their hair than in their hands.
Reception décor that features shells
in lieu of fl owers make for fi tting
centerpieces.

Edbert captured
gold medal, combines
with Edrea for strong
showing in dance
AJAX — An Ajax brother and
sister performed to a high level
at the 2008 BMO Skate Canada
Junior Nationals at the Nepean
Sportsplex in Ottawa earlier this
month.
Edbert and Edrea Khong repre-
sented the Toronto Cricket Club at
junior nationals, with Edbert win-
ning gold among 10 competitors in
the juvenile men’s free skate event.
Meanwhile, as a duo in their first
season in the pre-novice dance
category, the Khongs finished
impressively with a fourth-place
overall standing.
Edbert entered the juvenile
men’s free skate as the Canadian
record-holder, which he set at the
Central Ontario Sectional compe-
tition in Midland in November. At
nationals, he beat his record by
almost three points. In his free
skate he successfully landed eight
double jumps, dazzled the crowd
with his footwork, and impressed
the judges with his mature inter-
pretation of the dramatic music
from the Tosca Fantasy, composed
by Giacomo Puccini, to finish first
with a total mark of 39.78.
Edbert’s free skate coach, Mike
Gillman, noted he was excited by
Edbert’s performance.
The Ajax skater also received
a ‘Possibility Award’ from Skate
Canada that recognized the qual-
ity of his performance and future
potential.
Meanwhile, Edbert and Edrea
combined to compete in the pre-
novice dance event. This consisted
of two compulsory dances (Ameri-
can Waltz and Rocker Foxtrot) and
a free dance program skated to a
selection of music from ‘The King
and I’.
Edbert and Edrea placed sev-
enth after the compulsory dances
and had a great free dance per-
formance that moved them up to
fourth-place overall. Edbert and
Edrea were particularly pleased
they earned a ‘level 4’ from the
judges for their rotating lift. They
also received a personal best score
for their free dance.
The fourth-place performance
was even more remarkable as the
duo competed against older, more
experienced skaters in their first
season at the pre-novice level.
Edbert and Edrea are coached
at the Toronto Cricket Club by An-
drew Hallam, in consultation with
Tracy Wilson and Brian Orser.

AJAX — The amazing season for
the Ajax High School Rams senior
boys’ hockey team continues as they
took one more step toward a league
title on Thursday afternoon.
The Rams (12-0) booked their
ticket to the Lake Ontario Secondary
School Athletics (LOSSA) semifinal
series after sweeping the Courtice
Secondary School Cougars out of
the best-of-three playoff quarter-
final with an emphatic 8-2 win at
the South Courtice Arena.
Drew Boyd led the way for the
Rams with a two-goal effort. An-
drew Flynn, Taylor Giffin, Hayden
Perroni, Ryan Brawley, Kevin Watts
and Tyler Milanovic added single
markers.
Mark Vandermeer and James
Kehoe replied for Courtice.
The Rams now face the defend-
ing LOSSA champion St. Mary Cath-
olic Secondary School Monarchs of
Pickering in a semifinal series, slated
to begin on Thursday, Feb. 21 at the
Ajax Community Centre. Game 2 in
the series is at the Don Beer Sports
Arena in Pickering on Monday, Feb.
25. Games times for both playoff
contests have yet to be determined.
Rams’ coach Craig Nemis says
the semifinal represents a stern test
for his charges against the defend-
ing LOSSA champs, but a challenge
they’re nonetheless eager to take
up.
“They’re quite a good team, so
we’re going to have to be on our
game to compete,” he says. “We’re
very excited -- looking forward to
it.”
For the first time in a long time,
the Rams will throw a balanced at-
tack, along with solid goaltending
and defence, at the Monarchs in an
effort to dethrone the champs.
“We have a really good overall
team this year. Historically, we’ve
had one or two strong lines and one
or two strong ‘D’. This year, we have
excellent goaltending, strong ‘D’ and
three strong forward lines, so we’re
well-balanced for the first time in a
long time,” explains Nemis.
St. Mary advanced to the semifi-
nal after completing a quarter-final
series sweep of its own, dumping
the McLaughlin Trojans of Oshawa
in two straight games.
The Monarchs earned their way
to the next round after a close 3-2
overtime victory on Thursday. Chris
Rose, Corrado Gianfriddo and Ian
Doherty scored for the Monarchs.
St. Mary opened with a 9-0 shut-
out victory on Tuesday. Richard
Abbott notched a hat trick to pace
the Monarchs. Jesse Metzger, Steven
Flowers, Brennan Serville, Spencer
Foley and Jordan Bean also added
to the scoring parade.
The Dunbarton High School
Spartans also swept their quarter-
finals series, with the Pickering High
School Trojans left on the sidelines.
The Spartans will play the win-
ner of the Eastdale Eagles-Anderson
Raiders series, which is currently
tied at one game apiece. The third
and deciding game of that series is
on Tuesday, Feb. 19 in Oshawa.
The Spartans prevailed 8-5 over
the Trojans on Thursday afternoon
to win the series two games to none.

It’s all about ALICE at Annandale curling club
Cash bonspiel a hit
with female curlers
By Jim Easson
Special to the News Advertiser
AJAX — The distaff side of the
Annandale Golf and Curling Club
took over the pebbled ice on the
weekend for an annual bonspiel.
The ALICE (Annandale Ladies’
Invitational Cash Extravaganza)
bonspiel attracted 56 players -- all
from Annandale -- who made up 14
teams, each playing three, six-end
games.
The Rhonda Welsh foursome
ended up as the winner. Marilynne
Gordon skipped her team to second,
followed by teams skipped by Lisa
Puddephatt and Diane Lalonde.
•••
Annandale will be well-represent-
ed at the Pepsi Junior Mixed and
Bantam Mixed Zone Playdowns at
the Oshawa Curling Club on Feb. 23
and 24.
Paul Bourque coaches the junior
mixed team of Tim March, Chantal
Lalonde, Patrick Janssen and Dani-
elle Inglis. Ray Bushfield coaches
the Rob Bushfield, Darelle Johnson,
Tyler Anderson, and Rene James
entry.
Through Youth Curling, Danielle
Inglis, Darelle Johnson and Rene
James will be paying the competitive
membership fee that allows them to
compete for Annandale. Also, Dale
Lalonde coaches the team of James
McPherson, Yvonne Lalonde, Jake
McGhee, and Angela Glanzmann.
Jennifer McGhee will coach the
Scott Sawatzky, Stacey Hogan, Matt
Hardman, and Lesley Pyne four-
some.
The Bantam Mixed entry has Su-
sannah Moylan coaching the team
of Wesley Forget, Tess Bobbie, Mi-
chael Bryson, and Courtney Roblin.
Two teams advance from the
double-knockout zone playdowns to
the regionals at the Oakville Curling
Club on March 1 and 2.
•••
The Danielle Inglis rink of Burl-
ington -- including two Annandale
Curling Club members -- finished
out of the playoffs at the M&M Meat
Shops Canadian Juniors Champion-
ship in Sault Ste. Marie from Feb. 3 to
10.
The Inglis team finished with a
6-6 record at the national showcase.
In the round robin, they blanked the
ninth end to keep the hammer in
two games, but had the game win-
ning point stolen on them. Put those
two games in the win column and
the Inglis team would have been in
contention for the finals.
Curling with Inglis were Annan-
dale’s Chantal Lalonde at vice and
Tracy O’Leary at second, along with
Burlington’s Pam Feldkamp at lead.
Manitoba’s Kaitlyn Lawes rink
captured the championship with a
7-6 win over Saskatchewan’s Stepha-
nie McVicar in the final on Sunday.

Durham Windows
and Doors Brings
Mobile Showroom
To Your Door
Wayne Hutchison brings to the
replacement window and door business
a new and long overdue feature. It’s a
Mobile Showroom which just may be
the only one in Canada.
“The day is gone when you carried
some brochures and a sample window
to a customer’s home,” explains Wayne.
“So I obtained a retired North York
Mobile Library truck and installed
interior walls along with all of my
window samples.”
When you call Durham Windows
and Doors for a free estimate, Wayne
will show up at your door with his
Mobile Showroom which you’ll enter
by way of a sliding patio door.
Inside, displayed on the walls,
are the Vinyl Window Designs series
of vinyl windows which you’re free to
operate and you’ll discover the many
special features including how they
can be cleaned without going outside.
“After being in this business for
26 years, I can honestly say these are
the finest windows on the market,”
says Wayne. “They’re triple sealed
to reduce air leakage and come with
heavy duty hardware.”
All Vinyl Window Designs
windows come with Low E Glass
which filters out the ultraviolet rays
keeping your home cooler in the
summer and eliminate fading of your
curtains, drapes and furniture.
All of the windows come with
a lifetime warranty on the frame,
hardware and glass.
Wayne would also like his
customers to know that he does all of
the estimates personally, eliminating
the cost of a salesperson.
Durham Windows and Doors also
does all of its own installations, which
ensures that every customer gets a high
quality job done at the best possible
price.
Durham Windows and Doors is
located at 696 King St. W. in Oshawa.
