The victim was airlifted to a Toronto hospital.Man crushed in plant accident VICTIM INJURED AT PICKERING RECYCLING FACILITY, AIRLIFTED BY KRISTEN CALIS AND KEITH GILLIGAN kcalis@durhamregion.com PICKERING -- A 21-year-old man was con- scious after being crushed inside a car at a Pickering recycling facility Wednesday after- noon, officials said. The man was spotted inside the vehicle by a machine operator at K and K Recycling Ser- vices, 870 McKay Rd., as the vehicle was being crushed about 2:20 p.m., said Sgt. Nancy van Rooy of the Durham Regional Police. Pickering Fire Services sent over two pump- ers and a rescue vehicle, and was able to extri- cate the man from the vehicle within 10 min- utes, said Deputy Chief Gord Ferguson. The injured man was then airlifted to Sunnybrook Health Sciences Centre in Toronto. “He was conscious at the time but accord- ing to paramedics he had limited feeling in his extremities and that could have been because of the trauma,” he said.

The sustainable neighbourhood, cur- rently in the planning process, is envi- sioned as a mixed-use, transit- and pedestrian-friendly community in cen- tral Pickering. It will be home to 70,000 residents and 35,000 jobs, but more than 3,000 hect- ares are to remain in a natural state. Seaton is roughly bounded by the West Duffins Creek to the west, Hwy. 7 to the north, Brock Road to the east and the CP rail line to the south. A year ago, council decided that Seaton developers would fully fund a Seaton neighbourhood planning program that the City and developers would oversee. When the developers didn’t agree with the plans, they asked council if they and City staff could reach an agreement over the summer. They later agreed that the City should hire a consulting team to review the planning. That will include overseeing work completed by the developers and pro- viding recommendations to the City on matters such as background studies and subdivision plans. They also put together a financial agreement. The developers will fund the consulting work, excluding the develop- ment review component, which will be paid for by the City. That cost of around $95,000 will be covered by development application fees that have already been paid to the City for Seaton. Council approved the agreement and the hiring of consulting team Sorenson Gravely Lowes Planning Associates Inc. Tuesday. A City hiring committee found SGL had experience in similar projects and offers good value for the money; its fee will be $655,592. Ward 2 City Councillor Doug Dick- erson was unhappy that the lowest bid seemed to be a big factor in choosing which consultant would get the job. “Probably the last considered degree in selecting a firm like this is cost,” he said. Coun. Dickerson also shared his frus- trations that, from what he’s seen so far, Seaton doesn’t yet look as sustainable as the City has envisioned. “The whole planning process on Seaton in my opinion is falling apart,” he said. Ward 1 City Councillor Jennifer O’Connell found problems with the funding agreement, such as the City’s obligation to fund the development review component. She also disliked the fact that the developers can appoint three members to the technical group. “I certainly will not support appoint- ments in the planning process,” she said. Council approved the agreement in the end in a four-to-three vote. • Do you have a desire to work with the elderly or disabled? • Are you interested in supporting people to live independent lives? • Have you considered a job in community health or a nursing/retirement home?

It is anticipated that occupancy in the new building, at the corner of Bond and Mary streets in Oshawa, will occur in March 2010, said Brendan Crawley, a spokesman with the provincial Attorney General’s ministry. The new building will bring together family, civil and crim- inal proceedings in one building, replac- ing several courthouses in Oshawa and Whitby. With numerous staff and anticipated daily public traffic of up to 1,000 peo- ple, concerns have been aired about the availability of parking at the courthouse. Staff have expressed worries that on days when jury pools are summoned -- they can be in excess of 200 people at a time -- parking chaos will result. And a recent study by the City of Oshawa indicated traffic at the courthouse might take up more than 90 per cent of available down- town parking. The ministry is working with the City to address those concerns, Mr. Crawley said. “The City has advised us they will be building two additional parking lots that will provide 400 spaces,” Mr. Crawley said. That’s in addition to 300 street-level parking spots, a number of which will be designated with extended, six-hour lim- its, he said. In addition, the nearby Mary Street parking garage will see a number of spots dedicated for staff, who will pay a monthly rate. The 450,000-square-foot structure includes 33 courtrooms, three rooms in which motions will be heard and two conference rooms. The move from Durham’s seven exist- ing courthouses is being managed so that operations can be resumed without interruption in the spring of 2010, Mr. Crawley said. “A move of this nature is complex and includes ensuring that telephones, com- puters and courtroom technology are operational and that files are secure and other items are moved to the correct space,” he said. “The moves will take place over week- ends to ensure there is minimal or no disruptions to court operations.” PROVINCE Staff gears up for move to new Durham courthouse SABRINA BYRNES / METROLAND OSHAWA -- Exterior of the Durham Consolidated Courthouse at Bond and Division streets. Whitby sex offender fights dangerous offender tag BY JEFF MITCHELL jmitchell@durhamregion.com OSHAWA -- The Crown has cleared its first hurdle in a cam- paign to have a convicted sex offender jailed indefinitely, convincing a judge to order an expert opinion on the man’s potential to reoffend. On Tuesday in Oshawa Ontar- io Court, Justice Paul Bellfon- taine ordered Michael Ross Stratton transferred to Ottawa, where he’ll undergo a psycho- logical assessment aimed at determining whether he ought to be jailed indefinitely for sex crimes against nine female vic- tims aged six to 17. “I am of the opinion Mr. Strat- ton might be found to be a dan- gerous or long-term offender,” Justice Bellefontaine said in making the order. The Crown has announced its intention to seek a dangerous offender designation for Mr. Stratton, who was arrested in 2006 and earlier this year plead- ed guilty to 13 charges includ- ing sexual assault. If successful, the application would see the Whitby man jailed indefinitely, with a review of his status every seven years. Prosecutor Kent Saliwon- chyk has argued Mr. Strat- ton’s numerous and egregious offences warrant the tough sentence; defence lawyer Alan Risen submits Mr. Stratton’s crimes, while serious, should result in a sentence of three to five years, time Mr. Stratton has already accumulated in pretrial custody. Mr. Stratton is due back in court in December. If the assessment is favour- able to the Crown’s application, Mr. Saliwonchyk will seek leave from the Attorney General to proceed with the dangerous offender hearing. newsdurhamregion.comNews Advertiser • October 1, 20095 AP NISSAN VERSA HATCH PRICEMATCH GUARANTEE JOB LOSS PROTECTION ON EVERY VEHICLE PURCHASED NISSAN The Bond between Motion and You.

All content copyright Editorial Opinions POLITICS People will simply get used to paying new harmonized sales tax To the editor: The new tax that is coming out is inevi- table. It is not and will not be very popular with most of the population but it is a forgone conclusion. Where the tax has been introduced, eventually and in time, the “people got over it.” Unfortunately it hurts the government in power, but let me explain something. People would have been just as upset had the Progressive Conservatives brought in the tax, but it had to be done. Sure, some people will lose their jobs, but, with every new tax, some will lose and some will gain. Remember when Brian Mulroney brought in the Goods and Services Tax back in 1990? Everybody was up in arms but it still went through. The Liberals promised to overturn it but never did I also believe there would have been a lot less flak had the retailers dropped their prices by the “hidden” tax and then added on the new GST. But they didn’t and then the govern- ment was taking in an extra 13 per cent in taxes. Like I said before, the new tax will probably take about a month to get used to and once everyone is used to paying it, they may grumble, but they will pay it and it will become law. Ron Horner Oshawa HEALTH Shame that peanut butter is restricted To the editor: Re: Ease up on the PBJ sandwiches, Anna Rabjohn letter, Sept. 22. I would like to respond to Anna Rabjohn who finds it hard to believe that any parent feeds their child peanut butter every day: From Grade 1, right through to my O.A.C. year, I ate a peanut butter sandwich for lunch every single day. I was an extremely picky eater as a child and pretty much refused to eat anything else. I also had peanut butter on crackers or apple slices as my snacks. Peanut butter is nutritious and inexpen- sive and I think it is a shame that parents are forced to find an alternative to the good old staple of PB sandwiches, which have been a healthy, easy lunch for generations, all because of a small percentage of chil- dren with allergies. Thank God all these restrictions weren’t in place when I was a child or I surely would have starved to death. Shannon Taylor Oshawa HERITAGE Gates Open was worthwhile experience To the editor: My family and I attended Gates Open last year for the first time. We had an absolute blast. While we were only able to visit about four to six farms, it really opened our eyes to the area and especially Tyrone Mills. This year we’re disappointed to find out that the actual access to the farms will only be available on Sunday, unlike last year which was both Saturday and Sun- day. We will not be able to visit any of these farms, sadly, but if you have the time to do so, please take this opportunity. I do hope that next year the farms will be open on both days instead of just one. Derrick Webber Oshawa Cricket initiative for youth an excellent sporting idea Two Ajax brothers have taken bat and ball in hand and re enjoying getting the word out about a sport they love. The interesting twist is that it isn’t base- ball they’re excited about, but an old- world exercise they’re trying to interest their young friends in -- cricket. Waleed and Humza Nusrat, 17 and 18 respectively, have been avid cricket fans since they were kids and now have more than 50 other students interested in a cricket club at J. Clarke Richardson Col- legiate in Ajax. And now the teens have taken it to the next level, having applied for and received a $1,000 grant from the Take the Lead program for equipment. They also have mentors such as Melvin Croning, who played cricket for Canada and runs a cricket academy, and they will have a special event Oct. 28, with members of the Canadian Cricket Team on hand at the Ajax Cricket Club at 615 Monarch Ave. The boys deserve a lot of credit for pushing to get the program going from scratch. When they started two years ago, there wasn’t much interest at J. Clarke Richard- son, but they persevered and they’re con- fident there will be consistent growth. Cricket is a natural sport for Ajax- Pickering which has seen a large influx of immigration from South Asian and Caribbean communities over the past few decades. Those are among the world’s hotbeds for the sport. The World Cricket Championships were held in the Caribbean in 2007 while the next championships are slated for South Asia in 2011. Canada also has a tradition of cricket excellence and there are a few Durham natives who have played nationally so there are reasons to aspire to greatness. More than that, the sport doesn’t require much equipment. No gloves are needed for outfield play- ers. All that’s really required are a few bats and helmets, some pads and catcher’s gloves and a field. It’s fun and inclusive and all ages can play. And the sport is popular in many coun- tries across the globe. Waleed and Humza are on to some- thing here and deserve support from the business community and contributions for a successful program. When they come calling and ask: Is it cricket? The answer should be a resound- ing: Yes! e-mail letters to newsroom@durhamregion.com / max. 200 words / letter writers are obliged to back up statements with verifiable facts / please include your full first and last name, city of residence & daytime phone number / letters that do not appear in print may be published @ newsdurhamregion.com newsdurhamregion.comNews Advertiser • October 1, 20096 P newsdurhamregion.comNews Advertiser • October 1, 20097 P 1SPEVDFECZ'PSNPSFJOGPDBMM"VESFZFYUPS FNBJMBEFXJU!EVSIBNSFHJPODPNtXXXTIPXTEVSIBNSFHJPODPN $ ' " %)%'( $)' )!%")' ) ()(! * ȐȵȐǾɑǸɜȨȽȝɄɤɑҬҩɜȣɴȐǸɑ )% ' t &# &# )% ' t # &# )% ' t #&# &% # , #) !+$( %#))#'& +#*) %"&() !"# ( % ( ' ", & ( +#('(" $"))"&%-"*! *!") &+'&% *' ( '$'$ *' ( $ '$ *' ( $ '$ & ($ '*'() &*( *!&# *( *)*)!- ȐȵȐǾɑǸɜȨȽȝɄɤɑ ҬҩɜȣɴȐǸɑ ,,,*" " (*' '+&*(- '% && ( ( " / ) , ( . ! & + ( WALTER PASSARELLA PHOTO Playing catch with Chloe PICKERING -- Paul Hawkins got ready to sling a ball for his border collie/lab mix, Chloe, to fetch on Sept. 28 down at the boardwalk at Millennium Square. newsdurhamregion.comNews Advertiser • October 1, 20098 AP B]S\bS`bVSQ]\bSabb`OQYg]c`^VgaWQOZOQbWdWbgT]`"eSSYaO\RPS[]RS`ObSZgOQbWdST]`!

TIFFANY HSIEH newsroom@durhamregion.com YORK REGION -- Bronze nameplates and vases stolen from cemeteries in Durham Region and elsewhere in the GTA sold for $1.40 a pound and were to be shipped to China, police said Tuesday. In a press conference at York Region- al Police’s Vaughan headquarters, Det. Const. Jason Mendoza said 659 bronze vases and 16 bronze headstone plaques were recovered from a warehouse in Scar- borough. “They made just over $7,000 from what we recovered, about 5,000 pounds,” he said. Each 15-pound vase has a retail value of $150 to $300. The nameplates, at 35 to 50 pounds, are worth $1,200 to $3,000. Det.-Const. Mendoza began investigat- ing after items started to go missing from York cemeteries in early August. The suspects have been linked to the theft of decorative vases from cemeter- ies in Ajax and Whitby on Sept. 10 and 11. More than 80 vases were stolen from Pineridge Memorial Gardens in Ajax and Mount Lawn Memorial Gardens in Whitby, Durham police said. On Sept. 15, police arrested two Toronto men at Vaughan’s Beechwood Cemetery after workers there observed two men with a GMC pickup truck using a pry bar to remove bronze nameplates from sever- al headstones. Garry Matchim, 27, and Nicholas Moorehouse, 31, are charged with several counts of theft. Mr. Moorehouse was fac- ing charges for similar offences, alleged- ly committed earlier in Toronto, when he was busted by York cops. “He was on conditions not to be in any cemeteries in Toronto. We think that’s why he came to York Region,” Det.-Const. Mendoza said. The items are alleged to have been sold to a third Toronto man, 39, a scrap metal dealer with a warehouse in Scarborough, where police uncovered the goods. “We know that he was waiting for the bins to fill up so that he can ship it out to China,” Mr. Mendoza said. “He has had this warehouse for about one month.” Charged with possession of stolen prop- erty is Jing Zhu Chen. York police are working with investiga- tors in Toronto, Halton, Durham and Peel regions and are hoping to contact families of the deceased whose nameplates were recovered. L.H.

He was reportedly delivering scrap autos for recycling along with a fellow employee. He was in the car on the weight scale and his partner was accepting information on the weight of the metal to be recycled, Deputy Chief Fer- guson said. The overhead crane operator, presumably thinking the man receiving the weight information was the only employee, was unaware that there was someone in the car, said Deputy Chief Ferguson, and began crushing it to be recycled. He noticed about halfway through that a man was inside the vehicle. There is no word on whether charges will be laid. “It is an industrial accident,” Deputy Chief Ferguson said. “Durham Regional Police Services were in attendance and it’s being investigated by the Ministry of Labour.” The News Advertiser was unable to obtain comment from K and K Recycling. SABRINA BYRNES / METROLAND PICKERING -- A victim was airlifted to a Toronto hospital on Sept. 30, after being involved in an industrial accident at K and K Recycling. He was conscious at the time, but according to paramedics he had limited feeling in his extremities and that could have been because of the trauma. Deputy Chief Gord Ferguson ACCIDENT Man inside scrap car while being crushed at Pickering recycling plant MAN from page 1 Youths ‘inspired’ by war stories BY KEITH GILLIGAN kgilligan@durhamregion.com AJAX -- Students from a pair of elementary schools were given a living history lesson at the Ajax Public Library Monday. Grade 8 students from Vimy Ridge Public School and Grade 4 pupils from St. James Catholic School were at the main branch to listen as five former British naval crew members spoke of their experiences during the Second World War. The Town is hosting a 70th anniversary reunion for retired crew members of HMS Ajax, HMS Achilles and HMS Exeter, the three Allied ships involved in the Battle of the River Plate, the first Allied naval victo- ry in the war. The three ships battled and defeated the German pocket battleship Admiral Graf Spee on Dec. 13, 1939 off the coast of Uruguay. Basil Trott, a crew member of HMS Exeter during the battle, said the ship “only had three turrets.” Two were hit early in the bat- tle, leaving only one working gun, where Mr. Trott was stationed. “Commander (Henry) Harwood decided we had had enough, so we retired to lick our wounds,” he said. “The last shot fired by the Exeter was fired by my gun and I hope it was the one that did in the Graf Spee. “I’m lucky to be here. I hope you never have to go through what we went through,” Mr. Trott stated. Ted Wicks was on HMS Ajax for the battle. “When we went to war in 1939, it was to end a very clear tyranny,” Mr. Wicks said, cautioning the youths about war. “You’ve got to believe in what you are fighting for. Your service men have to believe in what they are fighting for. Avoid war as much as possible,” he stated. “Nothing good comes out of war. If you do have to go to war, you have to believe in what you’re fighting for.” Albert Large served on the Ajax from 1938 to 1940 and was “present on that fate- ful morning. “When I saw the Graf Spee, I thought I wouldn’t see another day. I thought it would be my last day,” he noted. “I was in action for 20 minutes, when a shell hit where I was,” he said, adding he and two others were injured. “As far as action and fighting, my day was over.” Also there to talk to students were John Dooley and Bill Slader, who both served on the Ajax in 1945. Among the questions the students asked were why the men joined the navy and what were the “badges” they were wearing. Mr. Dooley, who served on the Ajax in 1945, said his joining the navy was due to conscription. “When you went into the forc- es, you would say ‘I play piano’ and they would say ‘you’ll be a good cook’,” he said. As for the badges, or medals, Mr. Trott had six pinned to his chest. Four were for service in the Second World War and two were for the Korean campaign. Vimy Ridge student Shakeeb Baig said it was good to hear from the veterans, because, “I got to learn the local history of the Second World War.” Classmate Gurjit Parmar said it was “inspiring” to hear from the veterans about how they helped. “It’s all new to me,” Gurjit said. “You don’t really know if you read a book. You don’t understand.” On Friday, the Town is hosting a gala din- ner at the Deer Creek Golf and Banquet Facility, starting at 6:30 p.m. On Saturday, a series of street dedication ceremonies will be held around Ajax. On Sunday, there’s a musical tribute to all vet- erans at the Veterans Point Gardens, at the foot of Harwood Avenue, starting at 10 a.m. FAST FACTS Battle of the River Plate SOUTH ATLANTIC -- It’s December 1939 and the German pocket battleship Admiral Graf Spee has been raiding merchant ships off the coast of Argen- tina and Uruguay since the Second World War broke out in September. Though the Admiral Graf Spee has sunk sev- eral ships, there’s been no loss of life because Cap- tain Hans Langsdorff removes all the crew before sinking the boats. The British Navy sends out a hunting party under the command of Commodore Henry Harwood. It includes light cruisers HMS Ajax and HMS Achilles from Britain and New Zealand respectively and heavy cruiser HMS Exeter, also from Britain. On Dec. 13, Captain Langsdorff sights the Exeter, but underestimates the strength of the force and takes on the Allies. A battle ensues and Exeter is heavily damaged and forced to withdraw. Ajax and Achilles turn their full guns on the Admiral Graf Spee, and the damaged German boat flees to the Montevideo port in Uruguay. Captain Langsdorff has a tough choice to make. He can leave his ship in Montevideo where it will be forfeited during the war, he can take on what he believes to be a far superior British force waiting for him when he leaves port with his damaged ship or he can scuttle his ship. He chooses the last option. Two days later, in Argentina, Captain Langsdorff takes his own life. Afterwards, news of the battle spreads among allied nations and the Battle of the River Plate becomes known as the first major naval victory for the Allies during the Second World War. As a town springs up around the Defence Industries Limited munitions plant in what used to be rural Pickering, it is named after victorious HMS Ajax.

Build your strength at RENEW STUDIO Call Susan Fleming at905-683-5110 ext. 231 to advertise newsdurhamregion.comNews Advertiser • October 1, 200915 AP Question: Dear Susan, I’ve tried so many diets over the years and have been successful at losing the weight. However, I’ve never been able to keep the weight off and it’s kept creeping back on and now I’m heavier than ever! I don’t know what to do. Can you help? Answer: You are defi nitely not alone. This is a very common occurrence for dieters. Recently, in her latest issue of ‘O’ Magazine, the talk show icon reported that she had ballooned up to 200 pounds and that she was embarrassed and mad at herself for letting her weight get to this point. We’ve all seen Oprah’s weight fl uctuate over the years. We celebrated with her when she ran her marathon and was at her smallest, and, as her weight started to creep back on, we all wondered what was happening. Like many people who have been on the off -again, on-again weight roller coaster, she tried many programs, getting quick results she wasn’t able to maintain. Combine that with confession to having a food addiction and a health condition that creates a challenge to weight loss and you have a recipe for failure! Many diets are not designed for long-term weight loss because, well, they’re diets! Research has shown that 90% of all diets fail because dieters end up gaining more weight when it’s over because they can’t maintain the weight loss. Many programs have you eating at calorie ranges that are too low or cutting out a complete food group altogether, both of which are impossible to sustain. After dieting, the body’s metabolic rate - the rate at which it burns calories - actually becomes lower for a short period of time. After several bouts of dieting the metabolic rate can lower permanently, making it diffi cult to keep the weight off for good! In order to lose weight and eff ectively keep it off requires a lifestyle change. Poor eating habits and the lack of physical activity need to be exchanged for health-promoting behaviours. A lifestyle change program usually encompasses healthy eating, high quality nutritional supplementation, the inclusion of physical activity and emphasizes the importance of rest and relaxation to promote health and longevity. At U Weight Loss®, we know exactly what it takes to help you make a lifestyle change and achieve permanent weight loss. Our programs are designed to guide you every step of the way in making healthy decisions about food. We show you how to choose the correct types of foods that eff ectively balance key hormones involved in the fat loss process and teach you from the day you start how to eat to keep the weight off for the rest of your life. If you’re ready to get off the dieting roller coaster and experiencing the freedom of lasting weight loss, call U Weight Loss® today! 0ROFESSIONAL¬AND¬AFFORDABLE¬PROGRAMS¬ !CHIEVE¬AND¬MAINTAIN¬YOUR¬TARGET¬WEIGHT¬ -AXIMIZE¬YOUR¬ENERGY¬LEVELS¬ &REE¬YOUR¬BODY¬OF¬TOXINS¬AND¬CRAVINGS¬ ,OSE¬FAT¬AND¬TRANSFORM¬YOUR¬BODY¬ "ONUS¬#ALL¬TO¬"OOK¬9OUR¬&REE¬(EALTHY¬7EIGHT¬!NALYSIS¬ 4ODAY¬AND¬'ET¬A¬&REE¬$ETOX¬¬#LEANSE WWWBECOMEUAGAINCOM¬\¬OVER¬¬LOCATIONS¬ACROSS¬#ANADA¬AND¬GROWING !PPLICABLE¬TO¬PERSONAL¬COACHING¬WEEKS¬AND¬IS¬ONLY¬AVAILABLE¬WITH¬THEPURCHASE¬OF¬A¬FULL¬WEIGHT¬LOSS¬PROGRAM¬/NE¬ OFFER¬PER¬PERSON¬.O¬CASH¬VALUE¬.OT¬VALID¬WITH¬ANY¬OTHER¬COUPONS ¬SPECIALS¬OR¬PROMOTIONS¬/FFER¬EXPIRES¬.OVEMBER¬ ¬¬#ERTAIN¬#ONDITIONS¬!PPLY¬3EE¬5¬7EIGHT¬,OSS¬FOR¬DETAILS %XPERIENCE¬THE¬BENElTS¬OF¬THE¬/ ÀiiÊ-«iÊ-iVÀiÌì BEHIND¬ THE¬1Ê 7i} ÌÊ Ãà Á¬ LIFESTYLE BASED¬ AND¬ DOCTOR FORMULATED¬ PROGRAM ¬ DESIGNED¬ TO¬ HELP¬ YOU¬ REACH¬YOUR¬HEALTH¬AND¬WEIGHT¬LOSS¬GOALS ¬IMPROVE¬THE¬ QUALITY¬OF¬YOUR¬LIFE¬AND¬BECOME¬YOUR¬1Ì>ÌiÊ1 ,EARN¬THE¬4HREE¬3IMPLE¬3ECRETS¬¬ AND¬GET¬'UARANTEED¬2ESULTS 3IGN¬UP¬NOW¬AND¬ENJOY¬YOUR &IRST¬-ONTH¬&REE 8 * , ÀÃÊ 3ASKATOON ¬3+¬ 5LTIMATE¬5¬#ONTEST 7INNER¬ È£ÊLÃÊÃÌ ÊÊ newsdurhamregion.comNews Advertiser • October 1, 200916 AP Oshawa Centre (905) 576-1711 on *all reg.-priced WonderBra & Playtex boxed bras, briefs & bodybriefers. *Save 45% in store plus 10% manufacturer’s mail-in rebate.

And why would they want it to? In all three previous years, it has been Notre Dame that has claimed the top prize, converting a strong team and home court advantage into a championship title. On Fri- day they will begin their quest for four in a row, excited about the opportunity to put on a show for their home fans. “We play in six tournaments a year and this is the tournament they get most pumped for,” says coach Rose Booker of her team. “We’re looking for some tough competition from some schools that might be going to OFSAA again this year. “Our first two tournaments we went on the road, so it will be nice to play in a gym with our fans.” Notre Dame, which won the Quad-A LOSSA championship last season and advanced to OFSAA, has seemingly picked up where it left off. The team has posted wins at both tournaments it have entered, emerging as the top team in the Limestone Tipoff (Kings- ton) and again at Huron Heights in Newmarket. The Cougars also opened the LOSSA season with a win over J. Clarke Richardson. Of the 12 teams entered in this year’s tournament, four are ranked among the top 15 schools, according to www.hooptownGTA. com, a website dedicated to bas- ketball in and around the Toronto area. Notre Dame leads the group at number two, followed in order by Our Lady of Mount Carmel (10), Aurora (13) and Dunbarton (14). Mount Carmel and Aurora joined Notre Dame at OFSAA last year. “We do have some good teams,” says Booker in scanning the entries for the open invitational tournament that includes seven entries from LOSSA. “The teams that are travelling here are very good.” Booker adds that this year’s team is quick with a lot of balance. It’s young as well, with a couple of Grade 10s, Dakota Whyte and Brianna Thomas, in the starting lineup. Both played on last year’s team that advanced to the provin- cial OFSAA tournament. Also of note are Catherine Bougoulias, a point guard who has returned for her last year, and Shanica Baker, who is the leader down low and a force on the boards. Notre Dame opens the tourna- ment Friday at 10:30 a.m. against Port Perry, and will face Dr. Den- ison from the York Region at 3:45 p.m. Pool games will be played Friday at Notre Dame and All Saints, with Saturday reserved for the playoff round, with all games at Notre Dame beginning at 8:30 a.m. The consolation final goes at 4:15 p.m., with the championship game to follow at 6.newsdurhamregion.comNews Advertiser • October 1, 200917 APSportsBrad Kelly Sports Editor bkelly@durhamregion.com newsdurhamregion.com BASKETBALL Notre Dame seeks four-peat RON PIETRONIRO / METROLAND AJAX -- The Notre Dame Lady Cougars basketball team is made up of, front row, Dakota Whyte, middle row, Kadeja Hughes, Safiya Antrobus and Michelle Spagnuolo, and back row, Shanica Baker, Lindsay Panchan, Brianna Thomas, Tynelle Taylor-Chase and Dawndrae Charles. The following is an overview of the teams competing in the Notre Dame and News Advertiser Senior Girls’ Basketball Tournament.

Pine Ridge Pumas -- Rebuild- ing year due to graduation of all five starters from last year. Port Perry Rebels -- Team is very young but dedicated to learning the game.

The 2009 Ontario Cup final between two highly ranked OYSL teams, played on Sept. 12, fea- tured the Ajax Strikers versus the Kitchener Spirit at the Ontario Soccer Centre in Vaughan. The fast-paced game was deadlocked until the 35th minute, when the Striker’s Alexandria Lamontagne- Maycock stole the ball from a Spirit defender and scored on a breakaway to make it 1-0. Just a minute into the second half, Ajax almost doubled its lead when a ball struck the Spirit crossbar from 20 yards out. Kitchener gave its all in the dying minutes, but was unable to get the ball past the Striker mid-fielders and defend- ers. The Strikers held onto the 1-0 lead, ending the game victorious after exhausting play from both teams in extreme heat. From a total of 43 teams entered in the tournament and having to play a preliminary round back in May, Ajax was crowned 2009 Ontario Cup champions and secured its berth at the National Club Championships in October. The Ajax Strikers are hardwork- ing players who play with their hearts and with the goal in mind of becoming Ontario Cup cham- pions and ultimately national champions. After the Strikers victory, head coach Bob Langford comment- ed: “It was a fantastic game. Both teams gave 110 per cent ... We were fortunate this year to get the goal and to win it. Last year we came up short but this year the girls worked hard from last October with our goal of winning the Ontario Cup. This is a dream come true for myself and for the girls.” If you would like to support these fine athletes, the Strikers will be fundraising for their trip to Sydney, Nova Scotia this week- end at Sobeys, located at Kings- ton Rd. and Westney Rd. in Ajax.

HIGH SCHOOL Ajax Rams win big in junior football Beat Dunbarton 51-20 in opener of LOSSA season AJAX -- The Ajax Junior Rams settled in to Tier 1 football quite nicely with a convincing 51- 20 victory over the Dunbarton Spartans in the LOSSA season opener on Friday night. Ajax was led by the rushing efforts of Glen Reeves with three touchdowns and a two-point convert, while Marco Carinci had two passing and one rush- ing touchdowns. Defensively the Rams provided a solid effort and were led by Conner Cole with an interception returned for a touchdown. The remainder of the scoring for Ajax was provided by Andrew Scott TD, Bradley Benedetto TD, Morgan Humes TD, Marko Damnjanovic convert. Dunbarton’s points came from Andre Wright 2TD, Phillip Ful- lerton TD and two point con- vert. Ajax will face Paul Dwyer at 6 p.m. Thursday evening at Oshawa Civic stadium. newsdurhamregion.comNews Advertiser • October 1, 200919 AP HOCKEY OSHAWA -- The Oshawa Gen- erals could get a key part of their lineup back Thursday, when they travel to Peterbor- ough looking for some revenge against the Petes. Defenceman Calvin de Haan, a first-round pick of the New York Islanders, which reported- ly made a nice impression at the NHL camp, was returned to the Generals Wednesday, according to the Islanders’ website. Selected 12th overall by the Islanders in the 2009 draft, de Haan will help stabilize a young Oshawa blue-line and will like- ly return to loads of ice time, including as quarterback of the power play. The 18-year-old native of Carp, near Ottawa, had eight goals and 55 assists as a rookie with the Generals last season. He suffered a slight groin strain while with the Islanders, but could be in the lineup Thursday in Peterborough. The Generals lost their home opener to the Petes 6-4 Friday, when they let a 4-2 lead slip away. Next home game for the Gen- erals is Sunday at 6:05 p.m. against the Ottawa 67s at the General Motors Centre. Elsewhere, it appears 19-year- old Michael Del Zotto will start the season in the NHL with New York Rangers. Traded from the Generals to the London Knights as part of the John Tavares blockbuster last season, Del Zotto was select- ed 20th overall by the Rangers in 2008. de Haan sent back to Oshawa by N.Y.

TODAY AJAX 905-683-0707 newsdurhamregion.comNews Advertiser • October 1, 200922 AP Unique GTA program leverages research to guarantee social skills for home, school and community TheDramaClub.ca is a unique organization that uses dramatic activities and presentations to give children the skills to be successful in any social situation. The company has 15 years of experience with tens of thousands of young people in the GTA, and uses a program based on the groundbreaking research of Edmond. J. Dixon, a former teacher and principal who is completing his PhD at the University of Toronto. “We know that skills are power for young people,” says Dixon. “Everyone admires someone who can publicly and confi dently express themselves in any situation. Those skills can be learned in our program, which takes place in a fun and safe environment. Once learned, these skills give children a power that no one can take away!” The program helps support young people at home, in school and in the community with weekly classes available in the evenings or on Saturday mornings around the GTA. It is backed by a money-back guarantee that promises that every child who participates will have fun, gain skills, and develop confi dence!
