Recent charges prompt
councillor to seek
changes to bylaw
By Kristen Calis
kcalis@durhamregion.com
PICKERING — A City of Pickering
bylaw does not support volunteers,
and that needs to change, says a
Pickering councillor.
“We as a City want charitable
people, and we rely on volunteers,”
said Ward 2 Regional Councillor
Bill McLean.
A Pickering senior, 81, is going
to court for allegedly breaking a
zoning bylaw by running a busi-
ness from his home. He’s regard-
ed as a charitable individual by
many neighbours, but at least one
person complained to the City to
bring the situation to court. John
Tennant claims he does not charge
anything (although he’ll accept
the odd coffee) for repairing bikes,
lawn mowers, and anything he can
for local residents, a “hobby” he’s
had for 40 years.
Coun. McLean cannot com-
ment on the case since it’s before
the courts, but hopes council can
make changes to the bylaw once
meetings resume in September.
He wants to see a “fairer process”
for those doing charitable work.
“I think things should be exam-
ined case by case,” he said. “There
should also be something in the
bylaw to address cases like this.”
A similar situation occurred
with a retired Pickering nurse with
a love for gardening.
Janice Saroop, a member of the
Pickering Horticultural Society,
has been separating her perenni-
als each year since retiring three
years ago to sell for low costs at
her garage sales. All the proceeds
(except to cover materials such as
soil) go to her three favourite char-
ities: the Heart and Stroke Foun-
dation of Canada, the Canadian
Cancer Society and the Canadian
Diabetes Foundation.
“Diabetes and strokes run in my
family so I tend to favour those
foundations,” she said, adding as a
nurse, she saw a huge increase in
cancer cases.
She didn’t know a Pickering
bylaw only allows for two garage
sales a year at each residence.
Once, it rained on the day of one
sale, so she chose to hold a third
when the weather was nice. She
discovered the reality when she
was given a warning that she had
broken a bylaw. She’s been told
of complaints since, but says she’s
kept her sales to two days.
“As I told Bill McLean, these by-

laws need to change,” she said. “It’s
ridiculous,” adding she keeps signage
to a minimum on the day of the sale.
Coun. McLean supports her chari-
table work, he said in an interview.
A friend of Mr. Tennant, John Rooney,
has counted more than 200 zoning vio-
lations in south Pickering, and Ms. Sa-
roop feels others get away with selling
plants while she can’t. Both believe the
rules need to be fair.
“It’s just really your neighbours,” Ms.
Saroop said.
She hasn’t received a court order,
and although Coun. McLean can’t tell
Mr. Tennant what to do, he thinks legal
representation helps cases like this.
“I think someone with knowledge
(in this area) could work around this
somehow,” he said.

Ajax campaign
seeks more
Regional
council seats
Pickering better
represented with
four councillors
By Reka Szekely
rszekely@durhamregion.com
AJAX — The Mayor of Ajax is hoping
the town’s residents will be more per-
suasive than he has been in convincing
Durham’s Regional Council that Ajax
needs more representation.
To that end, Mayor Steve Parish re-
cently launched a campaign called
‘Fair Representation NOW’ aimed at
collecting signatures on a petition and
getting residents out to Regional Coun-
cil to demand a bigger say in Regional
affairs.
The Mayor said Ajax is the most
under-represented municipality in
Durham. With three councillors, it
works out to one councillor for every
30,000 residents. Meanwhile, said the
mayor, Oshawa’s eight councillors
each represent roughly 17,600 people
and Brock’s two councillors represent
slightly less than 6,000 residents each.
Pickering, which has a slightly smaller
population than Ajax, has four coun-
cillors at the Regional table.
“Regional Council in order to main-
tain its political authority has to be
seen as acting fairly and giving every-
one in the region their appropriate say
in regional affairs,” said Mayor Parish,
pointing out that more than half of res-
idents’ property taxes go to the Region
for things like waste, roads and public
transit.
“I would love to see a very strong
showing from the Town of Ajax, people
have to realize this is not about me,
it’s not about council, it’s not about
another politician, it’s about them and
getting a fair say for their money,” said
Mayor Parish before the campaign
kicked off. He added other municipali-
ties, such as Whitby and Clarington,
are also under-represented.
As to whether the current 28 seats
on council should be redistributed or
more seats should be added is up to
council, said Mayor Parish.
“Regional Council was at one point
32 members plus the chair when its
population was considerably less than
it is now with 28 representatives,” he
said.
Either way, council would have to
act quickly. Changes would have to
be in place by January 2010, in an-
ticipation of the municipal election
later that year. Even if Regional Coun-
cil decided to support redistributing or
adding seats, it would still have to be
approved by the Province. Mayor Par-
ish estimates the Region would have to
be done with the issue by early 2009.
But, change may not come easily,
if at all. Last year, Regional Council
declined to look at the issue and Re-
gional Chairman Roger Anderson said
it’s premature to restructure council
given that Durham is currently work-
ing on its growth plan, which stretches
through to 2031.

Students from across
Durham attend
modified school year
By Crystal Crimi
ccrimi@durhamregion.com
DURHAM — The school bell is ringing at
C.E. Broughton Public School this week.
With a month of camping, sports, and
day trips under their belts, the majority of
students from C.E. Broughton Public School
headed back to class Tuesday morning for
the start of the modified calendar. The school
has 300 kids in its August start program and
150 in its regular stream.
“We get kids coming from all over the Dur-
ham Region,” said principal Lesley Lepine.
“We had kids coming from Ajax last year...
kids from the far end of Oshawa and all over
Whitby.”
It’s nice to start school without the com-
mercialism associated with the September
return, which can make kids anxious, she
said.
“They come in their shorts and T-shirts
ready to learn,” Ms. Lepine said regarding
the Aug. 5 start.
Among them were those in Catherine
Jarman’s Grade 1 class. In the room of pint-
sized chairs and desks, students sat on the
carpet facing their teacher.
“Give me an example of a rule,” Mrs. Jar-
man said from her rocking chair.
“No running in the class... ‘cause you
might get lost,” one student said.
Although that’s something that might hap-
pen, what will for sure happen? she asked.
“They would bonk into something,” the
student answered.
“That’s right so that’s why we have that
rule, so no one gets hurt,” she said, and
asked for another rule.
“And no punching,” said another student.
The first day of school is spent going over
the school code of conduct, introducing new
faces, and reviewing character, Ms. Lepine
said.
For six-year-old Paeton O’Brien, this year’s
August school start was a first.
“It’s weird,” Paeton said.
Although she wasn’t really looking for-
ward to coming back, she gets to see her
friends.
Her mom, Tamara Schmidt, chose the
modified calendar to break up the school
year. The kids lost too much information
during the regular summer break and spent
September doing review, she said.
Her kids were a little hesitant at first but
were excited when they saw their friends.
“It’s not just the learning, it’s the social
aspect,” she said.
This is the first time her kids will do a full
modified calendar year after moving to On-
tario from British Columbia.
It’s also the first August start for Brayden
Ferreira, 9. His parents are hopeful the mod-
ified calendar’s routine will help with reten-
tion.
On the other hand, Chelsea North, 11, has
been in the modified program since kinder-
garten.
“We get more breaks than the regular (cal-
endar stream),” Chelsea said.
Her parents chose the modified calendar
after hearing about it from a family friend.
“I find two months was too long,” said Liz
North, Chelsea’s mom.
In the modified program, the spaced-out
breaks help recharge kids.
“And where I really see it is at the Christ-
mas time,” Ms. Lepine said.
Studies also show the modified year helps
with attendance and information retention.
It also allows each track to come back
while the other group is still out, providing
a quieter return, Ms. Lepine said. More gym,
library, and yard space is also available dur-
ing times when only one track is present.
Pickering
man
arrested
for child
pornography
Police seize
20 computer hard
drives for examination
PICKERING — A 46-year-old Pickering
man is charged with possessing child
pornography.
Durham Regional Police arrested the
man for allegedly downloading a large
amount of child pornography. A search
warrant was executed at his Marinet Cres-
cent home on Aug. 1.
Police seized 20 hard drives, including
10 computer towers and loose hard drives
varying in size.
An initial review of one computer dis-
covered hundreds of child pornography
files, many of them videos, police report-
ed.
A video camera was also found contain-
ing images of a teenage girl in front of her
home in south Pickering, taken from a
distance.
Investigators received information
about the location of the computers
through the Provincial Strategy on Child
Exploitation.
The accused has worked in the security
field in the past and had access to young
people, said police.
He was working for a private security
firm and assigned to the security depart-
ment of Upper Canada College, a private
school in Toronto.
There is no initial indication he was
involved in any criminal activity at this
location.
Investigators want to ensure there are
no other victims.
Christopher Adam Grant is charged
with possession of child pornography,
making child pornography available and
voyeurism. He was held for a bail hearing
Friday and remanded into custody. He
appeared again on Tuesday, Aug. 5.
Anyone with information about this
ongoing investigation is requested to con-
tact child exploitation investigator De-
tective Randy Norton at 1-888-579-1520
ext. 5363. Anonymous information can be
sent to Durham Regional Crime Stoppers
at 1-800-222-8477 and tipsters may be
eligible for a $2,000 cash reward.

Do-not-call list
is coming this fall
By Melissa Mancini
mmancini@durhamregion.com
DURHAM — Barb Mayall is sick of calls
from telemarketers, especially when the
phone interrupts her dinner.
“I am so tired of all these calls,” said Ms.
Mayall, a retiree who estimates on most
days she answers three to four calls from
vendors attempting to sell her everything
from credit cards to cruise vacations, win-
dow replacement to duct cleaning.
Ms. Mayall’s husband, Frank, agrees.
“I don’t even want to listen to them,” he
said. “Most of them don’t even sound into
their sales pitches themselves.”
Those bothersome calls may soon be-
come a thing of the past for homeowners
tired of being pestered.
The National “do not call list” is ex-
pected to be launched by this fall, the
Canadian Radio-television and Telecom-
munications Commission (CRTC) said.
The list will be run by Bell Canada and
will allow phone owners who sign up to
look forward to fewer sales spiels.
Mr. Mayall has heard a bit about the list
and will probably sign up for it, he said.
Retirees like the Mayalls get many un-
wanted calls. Agnes Coghill, another re-
tiree, said she gets up to six calls a day and
recently invested in caller identification
so she can avoid answering unwanted
calls.
“Call ID has made a huge difference in
my life,” she said.
Registration for the list will be free.
The operational costs for Bell Canada will
come from subscription fees paid to the
list by telemarketing companies.
Registration for the service will be avail-
able online and by phone.
Subscriptions to the list will expire after
three years and the onus will be on phone
owners to renew.
Land lines, cellphones and fax numbers
can be signed up for the list.
Bell will not be required to call sub-
scribers to let them know when they will
be removed from the list.
Some callers will be exempt for the
list. Registered charities, political parties,
political candidates, opinion polls and
market research firms who are not selling
a product will be exempt.
Other exceptions include newspapers
calling to sell subscriptions and calls to
consumers who have existing business
relationships with a company.
The only way to stop calls from organi-
zations exempt from the list is to get on
their individual do not call lists.
Consumers can make complaints about
calls if they have signed up for the do not
call list by dialing a toll-free number that
has yet to be determined.
The fines for violations of the list will
be up to $1,500 for individuals and up to
$15,000 for corporations.

New technology
will monitor subtle
changes in their
condition
DURHAM — More critically
ill premature babies could be
saved through a joint research
project with the University of
Ontario Institute of Technology
(UOIT).
The project, intended to help
detect subtle changes in the
condition of premature babies,
was recently announced by the
UOIT, which is collaborating
with IBM and Canadian hospi-
tals for the venture. Physicians at
Toronto’s Hospital for Sick Chil-
dren and two other international
hospitals are also participating
in the study.
“This research has the poten-
tial to greatly impact neonatal
care through reduced mortality
and morbidity rates and overall
health-care costs,” said Doctor
Carolyn McGregor, UOIT as-
sociate professor and Canada
research chairwoman in health
informatics.
For the project, she leads a
group of researchers in using ad-
vanced stream computing soft-
ware to work toward enhancing
doctors’ decision-making capa-
bilities.
Developed by IBM Research,
the software uses a constant
stream of biomedical data, such
as heart rate and respiration,
along with environmental infor-
mation gathered from advanced
sensors and more traditional
monitoring equipment on and
around the babies.
Researchers will also use the
software to apply findings from
Dr. McGregor’s body of research
to help make sense of the data
and, in near-real-time, feed back
the resulting analysis to health-
care professionals so they can
predict potential changes in an
infant’s condition with greater
accuracy and intervene more
quickly.
Currently, physicians moni-
toring premature babies rely on
a paper-based process that in-
volves manually looking at the
readings from various monitors
and getting feedback from the
nurses providing care.
When fully developed, IBM’s
software will be capable of pro-
cessing the 512 readings per
second generated by some of
these medical devices and UOIT
researchers will further test and
develop its ability to analyze
these vast quantities of data in
real time. Monitoring premature
babies as a patient group is espe-
cially important as certain life-
threatening conditions such as
infection can be detected up to
24 hours in advance by observ-
ing changes in physiological data
streams. Initially researchers
will use neonatal intensive care
unit medical devices in UOIT’s
health informatics laboratory to
test IBM’s software using simu-
lated patient mirroring data.
Then the software will be tested
using patient data, recorded in a
way that enables researchers to
alter some variables, play it back
and run simulations for further
study.

Let’s not build
an incinerator
To the editor:
Durham Regional council has gone to
considerable lengths to find that we can
afford an incinerator, but should we
have one?
The British Society for Ecological
Medicine concluded in December 2005
that because of the medical risks, no
further incinerators should be built.
Incinerators produce a range of poi-
sonous chemicals that include dioxins.
These exist in particles so small that
they pass right through our lungs into
our bloodstreams.
They are known causes of birth
defects, leukemia, cancers and heart
disease and cannot be destroyed by fur-
ther incineration.
Those in favour of incineration talk a
lot about monitoring dioxin levels as if
low levels remove all risk, but they do
not:
1) Amounts leaving by the chimney
can only be reduced by leaving more in
the ash which is dumped into landfills
where it remains a toxic hazard for at
least 100 years.
2) Although less dioxins released into
the air is certainly safer than more, the
truth is that even the smallest amount
will cause some of the medical prob-
lems mentioned.
It is also difficult to get consistent and
reliable readings.
True monitoring will involve check-
ing birth certificates (for abnormalities)
and death certificates and will become
a provincial matter.

G reat eras and epochs throughout
Earth’s history have always been
named after some grand defining
feature. The Jurassic had its dinosaurs, the
Pleistocene had its Ice Ages and the Creta-
ceous had its insects and flowering plants.
All known for one or two major identify-
ing features. Well, I think the same kind of
nomenclature can be applied to family life.
Initially it was only my wife and I liv-
ing together for the first time. This was
the Beaudaceous period. A time of great
adventure and upheaval characterized by
violent heating and cooling trends as new
pressures forced egos, passions and opin-
ions to grind together. Occasionally there
was the heaving of tectonic plates... at one
another. Still, such volatility made for enor-
mous fun and the creating of altogether
new and wondrous formations. Depending
on whether you ask a male or a female, this
period is also known respectively as the
Age of Apology or the Age of Stupidity.
Then came the first pregnancy and we
entered into the first Ice Cream Age or the
Haagen-Dazian era. And the world and
ankles became swollen and ripe with life.
Water was retained until levels reached
catastrophic proportions. It was a time of
great rubbing of shoulders, patting of bel-
lies and scratching of heads but otherwise
characterized by very little contact between
the main continents.
This era culminated in still more pain-
ful contractions and expansions and the
shedding of great waters, called tears. The
final result of which was beautiful, new life
and never before experienced levels of joy
and mountains of diapers. We refer to this
period as the Messy-zoic era, Jurrashic or
even the Age of Talcum. It is characterized
chiefly by a huge upsurge in nocturnal
activity and subsequent lack of sleep.
Next appeared a delightful period of great
creativity. A renaissance of art, language
and learning. We called this the Plastocene
era, sometimes known as the Legoic era. A
time of tremendous growth, both intellec-
tual and physical. Language is discovered,
as are, unfortunately, wall drawings.
A period of relative calm follows. Slow,
gentle growth dotted with occasional flur-
ries of activities called birthday parties.
Contrast this to the current epoch, a time of
unprecedented upheaval and turbulence.
The dreaded Teens, otherwise known as
the Egoic period. A time characterized by
great herds of gangly limbed, slack-jawed
bi-peds. Some walking upright, some not.
These creatures, known for their voracious
appetites will appear out of nowhere, in
noisy, boisterous packs, demanding to be
fed. Great caution is urged around these
beasts as they are completely unpredict-
able and subject to enormous mood
swings.
Physically they look somewhat human-
oid, but curiously have very poor, even
selective hearing and virtually no memo-
ry.
This is the era we now find ourselves
in. Challenging? Most certainly. But like
every other era we have traveled through
together, not at all without its excitement,
adventure and education. Like all good
scientists, we are learning something
new every day.
Durham resident Neil Crone, actor-
writer-comic, saves some of his best lines
for his columns.
Do-not-call list will be welcome relief for Canadians
Y ou’ve finally got dinner ready and are
just relaxing, ready to tuck into your
meal, when the phone rings.
You drop what you’re doing, get up from
the table and answer the call, only to find
out that you’ve been pestered by a telemar-
keter.
For the umpteenth time, you politely
-- or not so politely -- inform the voice on
the other end of the phone that you’re not
interested in buying (insert name of prod-
uct here).
For as long as there have been databases
of potential customers, there have been
telemarketers eager to make a thousand
calls if it means one sale. Mass volume is
the key, which means homeowners get
subjected to numerous calls a week.
But unlike spam busters and firewalls to
keep out unwanted Internet bother, it’s dif-
ficult to keep those phone callers away. You
could invest in caller ID, but that usually
comes with a monthly bill and doesn’t stop
that initial annoying ring.
However, a new national do-not-call list
initiated by the Canadian Radio and Tele-
communications Commission (CRTC) is
about to be started this fall. It will be oper-
ated by Bell Canada and will be free for
phone owners to use. Bell will pay for the
service through fees paid by the telemar-
keting companies themselves.
People will be able to register for the list
online or by phone. Information about how
to get on the list is expected to be released
as more details become available.
The list will be in effect for three years
with the onus on phone owners to renew.
There will be exceptions to the do-not-
call list, including, but not limited to, the
following: registered charities, political
parties, political candidates, newspapers
and market research firms. Phone owners
who wish to be on a do-not-call list for such
firms will need to contact those firms per-
sonally to tell them not to call.
The do-not-call list will empower people
who don’t wish to be sold to by phone to
stop the intrusion into their private space.
And it will stop the vast majority of those
pesky calls from intruding on the lives of
those who don’t wish to take them.
Neil Crone Enter Laughing
Stages of life characterized
by cool defining features
By Moya Dillon
mdillon@durhamregion.com
DURHAM — A survey conducted by
Toronto’s Daily Bread Food Bank found
housing issues are the main obstacle
faced by users of its food bank network.
In Durham, residents using the food
bank at Simcoe Hall Settlement House
are paying upwards of 75 per cent of their
income on housing.
“We see some people spending practi-
cally all their income on housing, up to
90 per cent,” said Sandra Sweet, executive
director of Simcoe Hall. “Housing is just
not available and waiting lists for subsi-
dized housing are extremely long.”
At the end of 2007 almost 4,000 people
were waiting for social housing in the
region. While the average wait time is
30 months, some people wait longer de-
pending on their request.
“The wait list is totally dependent on
different things,” said Diana Chappell,
manager of housing development and
homelessness issues for the region’s
Housing Services. “It could be depen-
dent upon what municipality you want to
live in, what size unit you need; there are
many different factors. Wait times vary
anywhere from two to 10 years.”
Daily Bread’s Who’s Hungry 2008 sur-
vey found that, on average, people were
paying 77 per cent of their income on
housing. While social housing offers a
rent-geared-to-income rate of 30 per cent
at most, people on the waiting list are
stuck paying market rates.
Amber Walter, a single mother from
Newcastle, was moved up the wait list
after being given priority status due to
an abusive situation. After signing up in
March she obtained housing in July.
“I thought about applying for housing
before but never bothered because I was
told it took two to five years,” Ms. Walter
said. “At the Y’s WISH shelter they told
me I could get priority status and helped
me with all the paperwork.”
At the time, Ms. Walter lived in an il-
legal one-bedroom basement apartment
in Oshawa. She paid $750 in rent plus
hydro for the entire house adding up to
just over $1,000 out of her total income of
$1,100 a month.
“I don’t think you should have to be
beaten to get housing,” she said. “If you’re
a mother or father trying to better your
situation, that housing should be avail-
able to you.”
Ms. Walter’s 2-bedroom townhouse is
listed at a market rate of $917 a month.
Under the rent-geared-to-income pro-
gram, Ms. Walter pays $114, plus utili-
ties.
One of the main problems with hous-
ing in Durham, Ms. Chappell says, is a
corresponding shortage in market rental
units.
“There have been 286 new rental units
built in Durham since 1995,” she said.
“That’s not just public housing, that’s all
rental units.”
Tracey Vaughan, executive director of
the Community Development Council
of Durham, says lack of rental and public
housing have created a dire situation.
“The Durham wait list is more lengthy
than other GTA communities because
the amount of housing we have is not
sufficient for our needs, and on the flip
side of that, the housing that is going in
isn’t geared to individuals with lower in-
comes,” she said. “It’s all geared to larger
incomes and larger homes, which leads
to ghettoized housing and illegal apart-
ments.”
These housing issues also affect social
services in the area, with many reporting
a recent increase in need and simultane-
ous decline in donations.
Lack of funding for public housing is
cited by regional officials and social ser-
vice organizations alike to explain the
need for housing in the area. New proj-
ects are getting underway now as part of
the Canada-Ontario Affordable Housing
Program, launched in 2005. These in-
clude a fully approved, 160-unit project
in Ajax.

Pain Free Living Is What You Want
If you’re living with
constant pain you know
you’re not really living.
You’ve tried everything
from drugs and shots to sur-
gery and still no relief.
But now there’s an
answer to your painful
existence. It’s called Low
Intensity Laser Therapy
(LILT) by Bio-Flex.
Available at Pain Free
Living in Whitby, LILT
energizes the body’s nat-
ural healing process by
sending energy into the
muscles and joints at a
cellular level and helps to
decrease swelling and ac-
celerate healing times as
well as increase the pain
threshold.
Laser Therapist Troy
Carlson of Pain Free Liv-
ing says LILT treatments
are painless and done in
three stages.
First a pad with a series
of super luminous diodes is
placed on the infected area.
It directs energy part way into
the tissue. Then a second pad
of Infrared super luminous
diodes penetrate deeper into
the tissue. The fi nal stage
uses a laser pen that pinpoints
the infected area.
“The treatment length
varies with your injury,”
says Troy. “It has helped
people suffering from all
types of ailments from
headaches, migraines,
back, shoulder and neck
pain to tennis elbow, torn
hamstrings, arthritis, knee
and ankle pain and even
carpel tunnel syndrome.”
The LILT from Bio-
Flex is in use across North
America. PGA golfer
Steve Jones is just one of
many who have used LILT
for their sports related in-
juries.
“For the past two
years, my right rotator cuff
has given me nothing but
problems,” he says. “I’m
convinced that without the
LILT, I would not be play-
ing competitive golf as I
am now.”
Troy was himself a
pain sufferer who, after
trying everything else,
turned to LILT for his
back pain.
“I have seen how it
has helped me live a life
free of pain,” he says.
“Now I want to help oth-
ers with LILT.”
Massage therapy and
Refl exology is also avail-
able at Pain Free Living.
They are located at the
West Lynde Plaza in Whit-
by at 965 Dundas St. W.
Suite 205. For information

CANADA’S LEADING PUBLICATION FOR TODAY’S FIFTY-PLUS LIFESTYLES
An orange-jacketed loader hands John Lipscombe his
bicycle. The smiling gent joins a group of other cyclists
just off the Bike Train, and they pedal away along the
Niagara River Recreation Trail toward Niagara Falls. He’s
going to spend a couple of days in the area, exploring on
his bicycle.
“I love cycling and I’m glad to leave the car at home,”
Lipscombe says.
Indeed, the bicycle is an ideal mode of transport for
this part of Ontario. The Niagara River Recreation Trail,
one of many bike trails in the region, is 54 kilometres of
cycling path which runs right past the Falls, from Fort Erie
to Niagara-on-the-Lake. En route there’s everything from
historic monuments (like Brock’s Monument) to the scenic
natural beauty of the Niagara Gorge.
Just off the trail are museums like Laura Secord’s
Homestead or the MacKenzie Printery where you’ll learn
about the history of printing in Upper Canada. And there’s
my personal favourite – the Butterfly Conservatory. At
one point I had no fewer than eight butterflies on my
arm – I think they liked my coconut
sun block!
Getting there is now part of the fun
when you take Via and your bicycle.
Only in its second year, the Bike
Train has found a large number of
fans – from families who want a
couple of days at The Falls without
the hassle (and expense) of trying
to park, to wine lovers who use the
opportunity to visit some of the many
wineries in the region. In fact, the
Wine Enthusiasts – Angela Aiello
and Paxton Allewell, founders of
the iYellow Wine Club – are already
planning a tour of the region for
cycling oenophiles.
“It’s actually a perfect fit for our
group,” says Aiello. “We’re even
thinking of arranging wine tastings in
the dining car en route.”
The concept is a simple one. You load your bikes on the
train at Toronto’s Union Station and two hours (and a neat
train ride) later, you unload at Niagara Falls. In fact, on
certain days the train stops to unload at St. Catharines, a
convenient departure point for wine tours.
Most travellers spend at least one night in Niagara
which gives them a chance to explore the area. The
Bike Train booking number also offers tour routes and
getaway packages with accommodation options to suit
every budget. The best part is that you will be able to
explore the Niagara Escarpment, a UNESCO designated
World Biosphere Reserve, without adding to the carbon
emissions.
Created by Transportation Options, a non-profit
group, with a host of government and private partners,
the initiative encourages low impact tourism and
healthy lifestyles. Combining two sustainable modes of
transportation – bikes and trains – allows passengers
to reduce their carbon footprint, and have fun. In fact,
the vast majority of Bike Train passengers last year cited
sustainable transport as their
primary reason for choosing
this form of travel.
Cost for the round trip is just
$59 (including bicycle, taxes and
fees). Kids up to age 11 are free,
but there’s a $5 bike transport
fee each way. There’s a limit of
56 bikes each trip and last year,
they were 90 per cent booked
(some trips were full). This year
there are more trips available
and the train will operate to the
end of September, but they’re
already filling up. So book early.
To find out more about the Bike
Train, go to biketrain.ca where
you’ll find a schedule, activities
and an accommodations guide.
Or you can call 888-619-5984
to book.
BIKES ABOARD!
Tourists are fi nding the rails and two wheels an ideal combination for exploring Niagara region’s
many attractions

Too many people find out the hard way that provincial
health insurance doesn’t necessarily cover them
completely when they are on the road. While many
Canadians purchase travel insurance for their winters
in Florida or Mexico, the truth is that travel insurance is
necessary whenever you leave your province.
If you are travelling within Canada, but outside your
home province, don’t assume that government health
insurance will cover your medical expenses. In reality,
if you need treatment while away from home, you may
have to pay up front and wait for reimbursement – which
may not be for the full amount if the treatment was less
expensive in your home province.
And while your home province assumes many costs,
some expenses may not be covered. For example, in
Nova Scotia, a non-Nova Scotian could be charged $652
for an ambulance ride.
For travels outside of Canada, medical coverage is
essential but there is much more to good travel insurance
than just medical coverage. Travel insurance that’s
comprehensive may include concierge services that can
quickly assist in cancelling your trip, provide alternatives
when your flight is overbooked or book you tickets to a
great show.
Whether you’ve purchased travel insurance for years
or are a first-timer, focus on identifying your personal
needs when you’re shopping for a plan. Ask questions
– good insurance agents are there to help you understand
all of the details of your coverage.
Look for:
• live assistance, 24 hours a day, seven days a week.
The Canadian government recommends Canadians
TRAVEL HEALTH INSURANCE – PERSONALIZE YOUR DEAL
For travels both inside and outside of Canada, medical coverage is essential but there is much
more to good travel insurance than just medical coverage. Look for special options that meet your
specifi c needs.

toll-free 800 number is another great feature
to have.
• emergency medical evacuation. A good plan will
get you to appropriate medical care no matter
where you are.
• an insurer that pays your bills up front so you’re
never out of pocket. Reimbursement may take
time and if you don’t have the money available
immediately when you need it, you could have
problems getting the care you need in an
emergency.
• the ability to personalize your plan. Some
insurers offer add-ons that can give peace of
mind and save you money. In addition, if you
rent a car while away, purchasing the car loss
and damage waiver through a travel-insurance
company can cost you much less than through
the rental-car company.
Consider purchasing an annual plan, instead of
buying insurance ad hoc throughout the year, if you
travel a lot. An annual plan can provide great value
and flexibility.
Pre-existing health conditions are the biggest
issues for boomers and seniors purchasing travel
insurance. You’ve got to let your insurer know of
every ailment you have at the time you are buying
your insurance. Every insurer is different and uses
its own medical questionnaire, but as a rule, the
healthier you are, the more you should shop around
for a competitive rate.
While you can’t change a medical condition or
your age, you can certainly do your research.
Generally, travel-insurance rates rise each year,
but if you shop around, and learn the issues before
you buy, you can find a policy that meets your needs
and is good value.

TIME TO BE CONSERVATIVE
Heading into retirement, two key qualities of your portfolio should be predictability and
control over your income, so be careful about taking on too much risk
By Jim Yih
Over the past 20 years, investing has changed a
lot. Back in the 1980s, the biggest decision investors
had to make was whether to buy a one-year GIC
or a five-year GIC. Double-digit interest rates were
the norm, and if you were retired, you could easily
supplement your pensions and government benefits
with interest on your GICs.
Today, with much lower interest rates, investors
are putting significant amounts of their portfolios
into non-guaranteed investments like stocks, mutual
funds and real estate. Let’s face it, we are all
motivated to earn decent returns, and generally, the
higher the return, the better. When GICs are paying
less than five per cent, it seems pretty obvious to
look at other higher-risk alternatives to enhance
returns.
While investing in higher-risk investments has
become the norm, it is crucially important for
retirees and those approaching retirement to be
more conservative. It is well known in the investment
world that the older you get, the more conservative
you should be. Let’s look at two risks of having too
much risk in your portfolio when you are older.
LESS PREDICTABILITY
One of the advantages of guaranteed investments
is their predictability. When you buy a five-year GIC,
you know you will get your capital back but you can
also calculate exactly how much interest you will
earn. This predictability does not exist in the world
of markets and mutual funds. You will never be able
to consistently predict what markets will do, what
return you will get and how much money you will
have at any point in time.
TOO MUCH VOLATILITY
Markets today are more volatile than we have
ever seen. One-hundred-point swings or more are
all too common. Volatility has caused a lot of
problems for retirees over the past eight years.
I’ve seen many people delay retirement because
of the markets. This was especially true from 2000
to 2002, which was one of the worst bear markets
in history. It wasn’t uncommon to see portfolios
drop 25 per cent to 50 per cent during that painful
time. The media and professionals urged everyone
to hang in there because it would eventually come
back up and in fact it did.
That’s great advice if you didn’t need the money.
But if you needed the money, that was a different
story altogether.
Many retirees drawing income from their portfolios
had to stop taking income or reduce withdrawals
from their investments because withdrawal rates
became too high.
Bottom line, retirement should be about living the
best years of your life. To do so, it is better to have
more predictability and control over your income.
In many cases, it is necessary to diversify your
portfolio into riskier investments, but at the same
time, be careful about taking too much risk when
you are drawing income from your portfolio.

Village East Medical
Village East Medical wants
to give you the VIP treatment
with their new Preventative
Health Program
(PHP). PHP is a
comprehensive
health
screening
assessment
that can be
completed in just one appointment.
This executive health program is the
fi rst of its kind in Ontario.
While most executive health
screenings can cost more than
$3,000, the PHP is completely
covered by OHIP. Village East
Medical only performs doctor-
recommended testing, making
sure that patients do not have any
unnecessary screenings.
The free assessment includes
screening tests in cardiovascular
health (including nuclear and
non-nuclear stress tests, and
echocardiography) women’s
health (including mammography
and osteoporosis screenings), and
gastroenterology services (including
colorectal cancer screening, and
gastroscopy). Through these tests,
the PHP can detect early signs of
diseases including cancer. Based
on the results, patients can be
better informed about their overall
health status and make healthier
lifestyle choices.
Village East Medical is a newly
renovated 7,000 square foot facility,
modeled after the Mayo Clinic with
Royal College Certifi ed specialists
in Cardiology, Gastroenterology,
Hepatology, Nuclear Medicine,
Radiology and General Surgery.
The state-of-the-art building and
compassionate staff provide
a comfortable and relaxing
atmosphere for all patients. With
hospital-grade equipment, the
clinic is ideal for multiple one-day
testing, with no wait times and free
parking.
For more information on PHP or on
how to complete your executive
health screening, contact your

Chapman
shines
in debut
Former soccer coach
not surprised by
Ajacian’s starring role
at Beijing Olympics
By Al Rivett
arivett@durhamregion.com
AJAX — No one is less surprised
by Ajax’s Candace Chapman’s dra-
matic Olympic debut with the Cana-
dian women’s soccer team than her
former Ajax United coach.
And, what a debut it was for Chap-
man, who scored Canada’s first-ever
goal in Women’s Olympic Football
in a solid 2-1 victory over Argen-
tina at the Tian-
jin Olympic
Sports Center
Stadium on
Wednesday.
“No, not re-
ally,” said
Manny White,
who coached
Chapman for
seven years in
the Ajax Unit-
ed Soccer Club,
referring to his lack of surprise at
her early Olympic success. “Even at
a young age when I first saw Can-
dace, she stood out. She had that
natural ability to control the ball.
She’s an all-round natural athlete.
If you gave her a baseball bat, she’d
hit the ball.”
Chapman struck an Argentine
clearing from 30 yards out into the
lower-right corner of the net for
the first goal of the game. The play
started on a Canadian corner kick in
the 27th minute. Chapman’s strike
made its way through a pack of play-
ers, giving Argentine goalkeeper
Vanina Correa little chance on the
play.
“After the ball went in the net, I
turned around and it just hit me that
this is the first goal we’ve ever had
in the Olympics,” Chapman told the
Toronto Star.
It was Chapman’s fifth career
goal for the full national team. Last
September in Hangzhou, China, the
Ajacian scored Canada’s first goal in
the FIFA Women’s World Cup China
2007.
And, make no mistake, says White,
Chapman’s goal has definitely set
the tone for the Canadians and has
given them some breathing space at
the Games.
“You always want to get those
points. A lot of the pressure is off
now having already gotten a win
behind them,” says White.
White began coaching Chapman
in 1992 when she was about 10 and
a member of the Ajax Warriors Soc-
cer Club. The next season, the team
joined the Ajax United Soccer Club,
where he coached Chapman for six
more years until her U18 season.
What makes Chapman a special
player? White says it’s the fact she’s
a team player with a great personal-
ity.
“She never causes any problems.
She just goes out and works hard,”
says White, who’s remained friends
with her and her parents, Gerard
and Margaret. “There’s no differ-
ence for her playing on a provincial,
national or club team, there’s always
a consistency in her play.
“And, if we’re beating the other
team badly, she would always feel
badly for the other team.”
White says he plans to follow Can-
dace and the Canadians as closely
as he can, bearing in mind his work
commitments and the time change
from China.
“Oh, yes, I’m going to try to watch
it as much as I can,” said White,
who’s coached in Ajax and Pickering
for 18 years. “I think they’re in for a
medal. Their coach (Even Pellerud)
is leaving and they want to give him
a good sending off, a positive send-
ing off.”

A Dolphins’ ball carrier rumbles past a would-be Huronia Stallions tackler during an Ontario Varsity Football League
(OVFL) senior semifinal contest at Pickering’s Kinsmen Park last Friday night. The Dolphins advanced to the Wettges
Conference final after scoring a 34-30 victory over the Barrie-based Stallions.
To play Etobicoke
Eagles in OVFL senior
gridiron playoffs
PICKERING — The underdog
Dolphins ran roughshod over
the Huronia (Barrie) Stallions to
move on to the Ontario Varsity
Football League senior league
conference championship game.
The Dolphins used a solid de-
fensive effort to knock off Hu-
ronia 34-20 in the OVFL-senior
Wettges Conference semifinal
contest played at Kinsmen Park
on Friday evening.
The Dolphins got on top quick-
ly, up 28-6 at half time, forcing
Huronia out of their power run-
ning game as they threw the ball
instead in an attempt to get back
into the playoff contest.
The key to the victory, said
head coach Jim Moore, was the
Dolphins’ ability to successful-
ly play an attack-style defence
against Huronia’s very large of-
fence. The result was five turn-
overs and, consequently, the
opportunity for the Dolphins’
offence to work very often on a
short field.
“We played a lot of man-to-
man coverage and relentlessly
pressured their QB Kyle Graves
who wound up watching much
of the game while on his back.
The strategy led to turnovers
and a lot of forced bad passes,”
said Moore. “Huronia was an ex-
cellent team but did not expect
the kind of pressure defence we
played all night.”
The Dolphins will now play the
Etobicoke Eagles in the Confer-
ence championship game. The
date, location and time of the
playoff encounter wasn’t known
as yet.
The Eagles, the league champs
in 2006, represent another stiff
test for the Dolphins, in their
second season in the OVFL se-
nior league.
Moore sees Etobicoke in the
following terms: “Much more
speed than Huronia but nowhere
near the size of Huronia.”
The winner will represent the
East in the OVFL senior league
championship at Hamilton’s Ivor
Wynn Stadium on Aug. 16.

It seems every company these days has something to hand out:
pens, magnets, notepads, T-shirts, etc.
Gas Pedal Promotions in Pickering takes it one step further.
Owners Barbara Nagai and John Reardon also help clients decide
what they should give away and why.
“Some companies put aside thousands of dollars for promotion,”
says Reardon. “They need to know when they buy a T-shirt, for
example, what they expect it to do for them.”
Reardon has a background in business marketing and uses this
experience to guide clients in their choices.
“If you want to buy a golf shirt for $10, for example, it’s going
to stay in somebody’s closet,” he says. “You want your advertis-
ing to work for you.”
Gas Pedal Promotions aims to be competitive and belongs to
the world’s largest promotional buyer group in the world. Rear-
don says this allows him to offer clients a huge variety of promo-
tional items.
“We pride ourselves on our ability to source new and unique
products,” he says, adding that Gas Pedal Promotions does every-
thing from T-shirts and magnets to dog leashes and hats.
Reardon individually inspects every shipment and if he can
fi t it in his truck, he personally delivers it too. Loyalty program
members also receive a gas rebate worth 5% of every purchase.

In Loving Memory of a dear
husband, father & grandfather
John Richmond
who passed away on
August 7th, 1998
Softly the leaves of memories fall,
Gently we will gather

No length of time can dim the past,
Our beautiful memories will
always last.

AJAX — Ajax Spartans pitcher Mike Arsenault can’t cover the bag in time as Sandy Clarke from the Port

Sportsplex diamonds recently. The Spartans won this game 10-2. The Spartans are currently sixth in the nine-
team league standings with a mark of 9-10-1. They sit 3 1/2 games behind the league-leading Oshawa Royals.
