Now, the 17-year-old Saint Mary’s Catholic Secondary School student may not be able to physically use all of his muscles, but he’s push- ing hard to raise money for and awareness of the disorder he’s battled since he was a child. Alex was diagnosed with MD, which progres- sively weakens and wastes his voluntary mus- cles that control movement, when he was just four years old. “It was the worst thing I’ve ever heard in my life,” said his mother, Janice Harold. Alex walked until he was 11, and now uses a wheelchair. He can use a special bicycle to get his muscles moving, but usually tires after a ride around the block. “I’m not in pain 24/7,” he said, but he gets exhausted very quickly.

Online investigation began in February BY JEFF MITCHELL jmitchell@durhamregion.com DURHAM -- A lengthy investigation of sus- pected online child predators has resulted in charges against four Durham Region men. Durham police’s Internet child exploitation section teamed up with OPP on the investiga- tion, which focused on men believed to have lured children online or traded in child por- nography images. Cops executed six search warrants in Oshawa, Whitby and Bowmanville between May 18 and 21, seizing computer equipment as evidence. The investigation began in February and involved hours of online surveillance of sus- pects believed to be engaging in predatory behaviour, Detective Randy Norton said. “These were proactive targets,” he said. “We’ve been monitoring them.” During the course of the investigation, offi- cers employed a variety of techniques, includ- ing posing as pubescent girls on Internet chat- rooms. The ploy helped police identify a num- ber of men who are now accused of luring and exploiting children. The four men charged face a total of 26 charges and police are combing through the contents of eight computer hard drives, repre- senting 1.5 terabytes of memory, to determine what is stored on them. Allegations against the men include luring and coercing young vic- tims into sexual behaviour and manufactur- ing of child pornography, police said. Some of the men used webcams and one is alleged to have corresponded with parents in various countries, including Sweden, Australia and the U.S., who shared pornographic images of their own children. Efforts have begun to res- cue five children, Det. Norton said. A fifth person arrested during a search of a Bowmanville residence has been released after investigators determined his wireless Internet signal had been intercepted and used to download child pornography, probably by someone parked at a nearby shopping plaza, police said. “He was shocked,” Det. Norton said. “He had no idea. “People should be aware they should be securing their Internet service. You may be the victim of the same thing.” Charged are: • Ronald Parr, 56, of Fieldnest Crescent, Whitby, with three counts of luring. • Matthew Macklem, 27, of Nonquon Road, Oshawa, with multiple counts of luring, invi- tation to sexual touching, and possession and distribution of child porn. • Daryl Clarke, 22, of St. Andrews Court, Oshawa, with possession of child porn, mak- ing available child porn and drug possession. • Arthur Denyke, 37, of Simcoe Street North, Oshawa, with making child pornography, sex- ual interference, sexual assault and invitation to sexual touching. He is alleged to have been in contact with a female victim from the City of Kawartha Lakes. Police have released photos of Mr. Parr and Mr. Macklem as they try to determine if there are more victims.

AP Cardiac patients treated within 90 minutes through Lakeridge, Rouge Valley, EMS program DURHAM -- Thanks to a partnership between the Rouge Valley Health System, Lakeridge Health and Durham Emergency Medical Services, Durham cardiac patients will be treated quickly. The Central East Local Health Integration Network’s chief executive officer, Deborah Hammons, announced the expansion of a program meant to save lives and decrease wait times into Durham Region recently. The Code STEMI (segment elevation myo- cardial infarction which is a certain kind of heart attack) program links Lakeridge Health, Rouge Valley and Durham EMS to provide angioplasty, which unblocks nar- rowed arteries in the heart, within 90 min- utes of a patient showing cardiac symp- toms. “This collaboration between health- care partners to deliver the Code STEMI program is an excellent example of how, by working together, we can make a dif- ference,” Ms. Hammons said in a press release. The angioplasty is done at the cardiac catheterization lab at Rouge Valley Cen- tenary in Scarborough. Cardiac patients are able to bypass Centenary’s emergen- cy department upon arrival in the ambu- lance, and make their way straight to the lab. “I congratulate Rouge Valley, Lakeridge, Durham EMS and the Central East LHIN for this terrific innovation for patients and the community,” said Ajax-Pickering MP Joe Dickson. When a STEMI occurs in the Dur- ham area, the local hospital’s emergen- cy department team calls Rouge Valley to notify staff of the situation. The patient is taken via ambulance to Centenary for an angioplasty. Also, all 911 calls regarding people experiencing STEMI symptoms will direct the ambulance straight to Cen- tenary. After the angioplasty, the patient is brought back and cared for at a local hos- pital. This happened in the case of the first Dur- ham Code STEMI patient, Kaleem Salam, 49, from Oshawa, just one day after the expansion in late April. When he arrived at Lakeridge Health Oshawa with chest pains and a tingling sensation, he was assessed quickly by the triage team. Following a test that confirmed his heart attack and after receiving a clot-busting medication, he was taken to Centenary for an angioplasty. Just hours after the procedure, he was returned to Lakeridge Oshawa to recover. “My doctors said that timing made the difference. They are all heroes. It’s because of them that I’m here today,” said Mr. Salam.

All content copyright WE THINK... email responses to newsroom@durhamregion.com Editorial Opinions durhamregion.com Lessons in commitment, achievement courtesy of one Pickering teen To hear 17-year-old Alex Harold tell it, just getting the word out to others is important. That’s typically modest of the active and involved St. Mary Catholic Second- ary School student, who is on par to col- lect more fundraising dollars than anyone else in Durham Region in the third annu- al Durham Walk for Muscular Dystrophy this Sunday in Whitby. That follows his achievement last year, when he was the top fundraiser for the same event. He’s modest, but he’s fully committed to the fundraising cause. He also has muscu- lar dystrophy, a neuromuscular disorder characterized by the weakening and wast- ing of voluntary muscles in the body. Alex was diagnosed with MD at age four but that hasn’t slowed him down or affected his engaging spirit and commitment to achieving good things. The annual walk to which Alex contrib- utes so much helps raise funds to pur- chase equipment and supplies for fami- lies struggling to make ends meet while coping with a family member’s MD. It provides much-needed research dollars for medical advancements in treating the disease, for which there is no known cure. Finally, it helps raise awareness of the disorder and educates society about its symptoms, causes and current medical knowledge and research. We encourage residents to learn more about MD and the local walk. If you can’t take part in the event itself, you might consider being one of Alex’s sponsors to help him top last year’s fundraising total of $18,000 (his walk team is already at the $15,000 mark this year). With continued commitment and com- munity support, Alex can -- modestly, of course -- once again provide a big boost for Muscular Dystrophy Canada and raise thousands of dollars for the organization. It’s important to note that, when Alex was diagnosed at age four, his life expec- tancy was approximately 17 years. He cheerfully noted this week that he knows of an MD sufferer who lived with the disorder until age 41. That’s a direct manifestation of the efforts of people like Alex Harold, people who have discovered the cause, made a commitment to it and helped raise money to research and refine new treatment options. There may not be a cure yet, but with youth like Alex Harold working quietly and diligently in the community to raise awareness and funding for the cause, there will always remain hope. And achievement. - Pickering News Advertiser COMMUNITY Common courtesy in short supply in today’s society To the editor: I was unfortunate to witness the total indifference of our society. My daughter had to do some banking at Westney Road and Hwy. 2 on Saturday morning. She has mobility issues and I accompa- nied her to the bank, which had about 10 people in the lineup. I went and stood in line for her and an older gentleman with two canes hobbled in before us. Yes, every single person in the line looked at him and can you believe not one person invited him to move to the front of the line. I had a real hard time keeping my thoughts to myself as these selfish indi- viduals just stood there. The gentleman served in the war and is more than 80 years old. When I asked if I could stand in line for him or get him a seat, he just recalled as a younger person if he had not given up his seat on a bus he would have felt a hand hit- ting him for his total lack of respect. To all the people standing in line I hope you never have a mobility issue. Ann Harwood Ajax EQUALITY Men will help out if you let them To the editor: Re: letter ‘Mothers, teach your sons well’. Although I do agree that in today’s soci- ety, with many women working a full-time job and struggling to keep a house clean, kids fed, bathed and all the other things that go with being an adult, husbands can’t smell that their wives need help. Women need to learn that they can’t do everything and need to delegate jobs and actually let their man finish the job without taking it back, even if it’s not done the way she would have done it. We as women have somehow gotten it into our heads since 1952 that we can do it all and have it all, but that type of thinking comes with a price and I for one don’t want to pay it. Men and boys are not all “brats” and they’re not all lazy either, but I will say they can be very opportunistic and if we women keep giving them stuff to do without taking the job back if it’s not done how we would have done it, they will feel included in their lives and needed which is all they really want anyway. Sandy Wilman, Courtice VE DAY I remember the Canadians who died so we could be free To the editor: I just read on your newspaper’s website about Canadian veterans visiting the Neth- erlands. I lived in the small town of Raalte (near Holten) when it was liberated by the Cana- dians. We left the cellar where we were during some of the last heavy fighting. News rip- pled through town: we were free. Our family ran into the village square and the first tanks rolled into town. My father lifted me up to shake hands with Canadian soldiers seated on their tanks; what a great honour that was for a seven-year-old girl. Every year on May 4 at noon, I remember all who died to free us. I wish I could have been in the Nether- lands to thank you again, brave soldiers from Canada. Instead, I hereby salute you. Thank you. God bless you, ladies and gentlemen.

The Canada Mortgage and Housing Cor- poration reports 182 housing units were started in the area in April, three times higher than the same month a year ago. Single-detached starts reached their high- est level in five years. “As prices for new homes across the GTA continue to rise higher, more households will be challenged to buy homes in rela- tively expensive sub-markets, and there- fore will look to more affordable areas such as Oshawa,” said Inna Breidburg, CMHC’s market analyst. “Data suggests that among recent purchasers in Oshawa, larger sin- gle-detached homes are particularly in demand.” Whitby saw a slight decline in April 2010 compared to the same month in 2009, with 15 single-detached houses started this year, versus 22 in April 2009. In the city of Oshawa, there was a huge increase, with 116 single-detached homes started, com- pared to 12 in April 2009. Clarington also saw an increase with 43 single-detached homes started in April 2010, compared to 20 in the same month last year. West Durham also saw an increase, with Pickering reporting nine single-detached homes started in April of this year, com- pared to five in the same month last year, and Ajax seeing 77 new homes started, compared with seven in April 2009. No new single-detached homes were reported as starting construction in Uxbridge, Brock or Scugog.

Goal is five-per cent drop by 2015 KEITH GILLIGAN kgilligan@durhamregion.com DURHAM -- The goals are set, but now comes the heavy lifting. On June 2, Durham Regional Council is expected to endorse a recommendation setting greenhouse gas emission reduc- tion targets. The targets include a five-per cent reduction by 2015, 20 per cent by 2020 and 80 per cent by 2050. The Region is using 2007 as the baseline. A staff report noted, “The development of a community GHG emissions reduc- tions targets is a significant step forward for Durham Region.” The heavy lifting will come as the Region’s Roundtable on Climate Change begins work on a local action plan. While he’s pleased Durham is working on climate change, Clarington resident Louis Bertrand said the targets weren’t aggressive enough. “The big surprise is the number is a little more timid,” he said, suggesting the target for 2020 be 25 per cent or higher. “It’s nice we’re aligned with other municipalities. Overall, it’s a very timid target,” Mr. Bertrand said to committee members on Tuesday. “It’s nice to have them,” he said of the targets, but noted the Region doesn’t have an overall plan to achieve them. “Without realistic plans, the chance to meet even timid targets is low,” he stated. Most Durham residents work outside of the Region, so greenhouse gas emis- sions won’t be lowered until more jobs are available locally, Mr. Bertrand said. Clarington resident Linda Gasser praised committee members for working on climate change targets. “It’s very positive Durham is look- ing at climate change. It’s good the sug- gested targets are provisional and can be changed,” Ms. Gasser said. She was critical Durham was using 2007 as a baseline for emission targets, while most organizations were using 1990. A “climate change secretariat or a com- missioner” at the Regional level should be added, she added. The targets are “only as good as the implementation,” Ms. Gasser noted. “Any improvement will come from the tax base and that’s subject to the usual political wrangling,” Ms. Gasser said.

CHRIS HALL chall@durhamregion.com PORT PERRY -- Standing in front of a memorial in her hometown to pay tribute to one of Scugog’s lost war heroes is one thing. Wandering around the exact spot where Roy Carter was executed by German sol- diers in 1944 and where the people of Til- burg have erected a granite monument in his honour was quite another experience for Katheryn Churchill. “It was weird, going from home to where his life ended was something else,” said 16-year-old Katheryn, a Grade 10 student at Port Perry High School. The place where Roy Carter took his final steps during the Second World War was one of the numerous stops made by 2,400 students from across Canada, including nearly two dozen from Port Perry High School, who travelled to the Netherlands with EF Educational Tours in early May. There, the students took part in a myriad of celebrations held to mark the 65th anni- versary of Victory in Europe and Canada’s role in liberating Europe during the Sec- ond World War. Roy Edward Carter, born in 1921, was raised near Blackstock and enlisted with the Royal Canadian Air Force on May 22, 1942. Shortly after earning his wings in London, he was commissioned to 431 Iro- quois Squadron to fly Halifax bombers on combat operations overseas. In 1944, he and his crew were shot down around Boekel, Holland. He immediately buried his chute and contacted the local resistance group. On July 9, 1944, the Nazi Gestapo invaded the home in Tilburg where he and two other airmen were hid- ing. The Nazis captured the three men, took them into the backyard and shot them. Today, located in the middle of an oval street and surrounded by a row of waist- high hedges, a rock-like monument simi- lar to a tombstone sits in Tilburg in hon- our of Mr. Carter and his two fallen col- leagues. On May 4, Katheryn and another stu- dent from Port Perry High School were randomly selected to place wreaths on the memorial in Mr. Carter’s memory. “It seemed so real, so personal,” said Katheryn of visiting Mr. Carter’s memori- al. Only a few months earlier, at the Nov. 9 dedication service at the Blackstock park, Katheryn had talked with one of the air- men who had flown with Mr. Carter. “Just actually being there, and seeing the place where the house (where Mr. Carter and the airmen were captured) was, was amazing,” said Katheryn. But the most heart-warming thanks were reserved for the aging soldiers who returned to the lands they liberated more than 60 years ago, some of whom relived their experiences during the celebrations. “They were doing demonstrations with many different types of guns and most of the veterans would shudder or cringe when the guns went off,” said Katheryn. “Sixty-five years later, it still haunts them.” READ the special section online @ durhamregion.com Durham students honour their hometown hero VICTORY IN EUROPE SABRINA BYRNES / METROLAND HOLTEN, NETHERLANDS -- Perth District High School students Matthew Stafford and Daniel Roy, along with Port Perry High School students Brittany Cook and Katheryn Churchill, presented Princess Margriet with the Peace Tower flag during the com- memorative ceremony at the Holten Canadian War Cemetery, May 4, part of the 65th anniversary celebrations of Victory in Europe Day. durhamregion.comNews Advertiser • May 27, 201011 AP th Peanut Butter Crisp Now In Ajax!

Do manufacturers of hearing aids own hearing aid clinics? A. There is a recent trend in hearing care for some manufacturers of hearing aids to own hearing aid clinics. These clinics typically sell only hearing aids manufactured by the manufacturer. Q. Is your hearing aid clinic owned by a hearing healthcare professional? A. An audiologist is a member of the College of Audiologists and Speech-Language Pathologists of Ontario. A hearing instrument practitioner is a member of the Association of Hearing Instrument Practitioners of Ontario. A hearing aid clinic owned by an audiologist or hearing instrument practitioner typically offers hearing aids manufactured by more than one manufacturer. Our three hearing aid clinics are owned by an audiologist and hearing instrument practitioner. Q. How will I know if a hearing aid clinic is owned by a health professional? A. . You can ask two questions: • Are you owned by a health professional or a manufacturer of hearing aids? • Do you carry hearing aids manufactured by more than one manufacturer? Choice is critical when treating hearing loss. Hearing loss is unique; there is no “cookie cutter” solution. Our approach is motivated by evidence-based practice and we ﬁ t our patients with hearing aids that are just right for them. The Choice is Yours!

Q. What is the latest in hearing aid technology? A. Developed over 3 years, Breakthrough Research from the Hear- ing Research Center and the University of California, Berkeley, announces a noise reducing technology so fast and smart, it reduces noise between syllables of speech overcoming one of the most common complaints of hearing aid wearers. Q. What does that mean? A. Not hearing comfortably in noise, one of the biggest problems for people who wear hearing aids, is ﬁ nally eliminated. The technology is the most advanced, in- novative noise reduction and speech preservation ever designed; it holds speech volume up and pushes background noise down, meaning you hear more of what you want to hear, like conversations, and less of what you don’t, like wind and noise. Q. Are the hearing aids bigger? A. On the contrary---the world’s best technology is NOW available in a 100% invis- ible hearing aid. For the past two decades, the completely-in-the-canal, (CIC), virtu- ally invisible, has been available. Now, the invisible-in-the-canal (IIC) is completely invisible and available at our Clinics this coming June. These invisible hearing aids are for people who say: “You’ll never see me wearing a hearing aid.” Q. Can I be fi t with 100% invisible hearing aids? A. We are proud to be the FIRST to introduce you to this breakthrough technology. Your hearing loss and your ear canals will be the determining factors. Don’t delay. Call us today. Health & Wellness ADVERTISING FEATURE If you have been wearing the same dental prosthesis for more than ﬁ ve years without having it checked by your den- turist, you are running unnecessary risks. Too many people believe that dentures are good for over 20 years. Nothing could be further from the truth! The removable prosthesis is made of a hard, rigid mate- rial. Your face, mouth and jaw, on the other hand, change over the years. Because it can not adapt to these changes and because artiﬁ cial teeth wear down with time, a prosthesis cannot do its job effec- tively for more than about ﬁ ve years. This reality can have devastating consequences that are of- ten invisible and imperceptible to the wearer of a worn-out denture. Here is a short list of the most harmful possible effects suffered by wearers of prothesis more than ﬁ ve years old: • Softening of the tissues • Painful irritated tissues • More labourious chewing and difﬁ cult digestion • Headaches, earaches, neck pain and joint problems • Sagging mouth, point chin and prematurely old face • Accelerated resorption of the bone And this is only a partial list! Very few people maintain their prosthesis properly. Some even neglect to remove it for the night. Don’t take chances with your health! See your denturist annually. When was the last time you saw your denturist? Pickering Denture Clinic offers free consultations.

JOE MISKIN Emergencies and New Patients Welcome 99 00 55 We are available to serve you 2003 www.drjoemiskin.com 2006 Platinum 2007 Diamond DENTAL OFFICE Foot binding was an ancient Chinese custom that lasted for over 1,000 years. It is estimated that during this time over one billion women had their feet bound. Foot binding was an attempt to stop the growth of the feet somewhere between the ages of four to seven. It could oc- cur later if the family needed the daugh- ter to work around the house or farm. A bandage 10 feet long and 2 inches wide was wrapped tightly around the foot forcing the four small toes under the sole of the foot, this made the foot narrower and shorter as it forced the big toe under the sole of the foot. The bandages were tightened each day and the feet were put into progressively smaller shoes, the average shoe size being about four inches. The entire pro- cess took two years at which time the feet could only function mini- mally. Without continuously daily care the feet were prone to constant infections, and possible gangrene. It was not until the late Tang Dynasty (618-906) that foot bind- ing began, and gradually spread through in upper class during the Soong Dynasty (906 - 1297). Dur- ing Ming (1368-1644) and Ching (1644 - 1911) Dynasty, the custom spread through the majority of the population. It was not until the Chi- nese Revolution of 1911 that foot binding was outlawed. Only those below a certain social class did not have their feet bound. The origin of foot binding is not known, however several theories ex- ist, most of which refer to the con- cubines or wives of the upper class. Foot binding prevented them from straying or running away. Confu- cian teachings at that time stressed the superior status of men over women as a basic element of soci- ety. Foot binding began as a luxury amongst the rich, making women more dependent on others and less useful around the house. It was even a prerequisite for marriage and a status of symbol. Many lower class families who could not afford to bind their daughter’s feet due to her loss of labour around the house or farm, did bind their feet anyway in hopes of status seeking and marrying up. A bound foot also altered her gait, giving her more of a “bouncy” type walk, and it also forced her to lag behind her husband. The wom- en were then more controllable, more dependent on others and therefore more subservient to their husbands. The fact that foot binding lasted for more the 1,000 years is truly unbeliev- able. We, however, should not pass judgement. Women now adays wear ill ﬁ tting and smaller sized shoes just for the sake of fashion without disregard of the long term affect on their feet. What about those spine deforming corsets of years ago or the tattoo or body piercing or implants of today. To what extent will we go to ﬁ t the norm of the day.

It’s put on by Muscular Dystrophy Canada, and is designed to raise awareness of MD, money for equipment and research to help find treatments, causes and cures for MD and other neuromuscular disorders. MD Canada hopes the walk will raise $1 million nation-wide. “There’s a chance to help, a chance to make a difference,” Alex said. The teen is realistic about the progressive disorder he lives with, but still has hope for the research that MD Canada has support- ed since 1954. “Will I walk again someday? Probably not. But it might stop me where I am,” he said. He added the fundraisers for MD have enabled some huge strides in treatment options. He noted he recently heard of a man who lived with MD until he was 41, much longer than people survived with the disorder just years ago. Alex has a dream that when kids are diag- nosed with MD in the future, or any dis- ease for that matter, the doctor will say, “but don’t worry; we can fix that.” “Every little piece is going to bring them that big piece,” he said. And he feels for the families who are less well off than his. He emphasized the money from the walk will buy less fortunate fami- lies much-needed equipment. Wheelchairs range from $8,000 to $40,000, he said. Team Alex raised $18,000 last year and is well on its way to meeting that total this time around. Alex has already raised more than $10,000 himself and his team has raised $15,000. Alex is currently the Dur- ham Walk’s top fundraiser. Even if people want to attend but can’t raise much money, Alex still encourages them to come out. “Just getting our word out is big,” he said. His mother, also the chairwoman of the walk’s organizing committee, agreed. “It’s nice to be a top fundraiser, but it isn’t any better than the guy who raised the least,” Ms. Harold said. Ms. Harold said it’s also a great way to meet others with MD, since it’s not just about raising money. “It’s about fellowship.” The walk will start at 11 a.m. (registra- tion at 10 a.m.) on May 30 at Heydenshore Kiwanis Park in Whitby, at South Blair and Water streets. Participants can walk five kilometres, or opt for the shorter one-kilo- metre route. Those interested can donate to Team Alex or to “any other random person” online. They can also simply show up on the day to participate if they haven’t registered already.

Not everyone, however, has accumulated such experience and Mr. Mackey, operator of Port Perry Marina, knows that ignorance sur- rounding the rules and regulations of boating can lead to serious, and sometimes deadly, consequences. “A lot of us grew up boating, we grew up around boats and we were educated by our families on the do’s and don’ts of boating. Now, not so much. You don’t see that information passed down as much,” recalled Mr. Mackey. “What was really needed was some sort of mechanism to get people that knowledge, to share with them that knowledge that we grew up with.” Casually flipping through a copy of Transport Canada’s Safe Boat- ing Guide, Mr. Mackey believes a fair and simple mechanism has been put in place. As of last September, almost everyone in Canada who plans to pilot a recreational vessel must have a pleasure craft operator’s card which acknowledges the holder has successfully passed a proficiency test. That’s a big step forward for the boating world, said Mr. Mack- ey, who explained that mounting injuries, and deaths, over the years prompted the Canadian govern- ment to somewhat regulate the activity. In 1999, the Government of Canada introduced new require- ments under the Competency of Operators of Pleasure Craft Regu- lations to help reduce the number of boating-related incidents and fatalities. A decade later, the effort culmi- nated last Sept. 15 when it became mandatory for most boaters oper- ating a pleasure craft of any size fitted with a motor to have a profi- ciency card. There are numerous accredited proficiency exams created by the boating industry but all have been approved by government officials. Each feature 36 multiple-choice questions and a minimum score of 75 per cent, or 27 out of 36, is required. Like a driving exam, the test includes many questions that require common sense and other, more difficult, queries that require a broad boating knowledge. The questions vary from know- ing the minimum safety equip- ment requirements on board your boat, the Canadian buoy system and pertinent regulations to shar- ing waterways and how to respond in an emergency situation. The proficiency card is good for life. Mr. Mackey, a certified instructor, estimates that he’s marked about 500 tests in the past three years. Anyone who’s flipped through the Safe Boating Guide has received a passing grade, he added. “You don’t have to get perfect,” he said. “The idea is to look at the book and learn a few things, some- thing that might be able to help you down the road. It’s supposed to be educational and there’s no need to be concerned about it.” Writing and marking a test takes about one hour; Mr. Mackey gen- erally accommodates exam writ- ers during their lunch hour if they call ahead by a day or so. The test costs $35 and the Safe Boating Guide is available for free at Port Perry Marina, 215 Water St. There are a handful of excep- tions to the new rules, however. Boat operators in the North- west Territories and Nunavut are exempt as are those who rent boats from facilities such as Port Perry Marina. Instead, rental customers must go over a dock-side safety check- list to ensure they’re comfortable with the vessel and knowledge- able about rules and regulations. It’s good for the duration of the rental. “If you’re going to rent a boat, I want to make sure you know how to run it and that you’re going to have fun. I don’t want you to wreck it,” said Mr. Mackey. He added that most people are provided with more safety infor- mation when they rent a boat than when they purchase one. There is a $250 fine for not car- rying proof of a completed com- petency test or rental boat safety checklist. Proficiency cards are even required for those paddling a motorboat while the motor is off because the vessel is still consid- ered a powered craft.

WATCH the video story @ durhamregion.com CELIA KLEMENZ / METROLAND PORT PERRY -- Port Perry Marina proprietor John Mackey zipped along the waves on Lake Scugog on May 25. BIG HAUL Trio fined for not having operator’s card SCUGOG -- Three boaters were found without a pleasure craft operator’s card during a sweep of Lake Scugog over the long weekend, say Durham police. According to Sergeant Jeff Galipeau, officers checked 27 boats between Satur- day and Monday to ensure operators were in possession of a proficiency card. A trio of boaters was fined $250 each for not having proof of competency. In 2009, prior to the operator’s card becoming mandatory, about half of all boaters checked had passed an accredited test, said Sgt. Galipeau. “The safety aspect is something the police have been asking for for a long time,” said the sergeant. “You need a licence for a motor vehicle on the road, but for a boat with high power, you’re free to go. Now there is somewhat of an onus on the operator to learn something about navigation,” he said.

Early start pays off Pickering track team strong at LOSSA AJAX -- After two days of competition at the LOSSA track-and-field champion- ships, the Pickering Tro- jan team left Civic Fields in Oshawa with eight of the nine championship tro- phies. A team known for its hur- dlers, sprinters and relay teams continued the tra- dition at the 2010 champi- onships. Pickering will be sending Durham’s largest team to the OFSAA Central Region championships. The team’s success is directly related to a number of pre-season track meets at the Louis Riel High School Indoor Dome in Otta- wa. Referred to as ‘Track Thursdays,’ 50 members of the team would board the school chartered coach at 6:30 a.m. and head east to the nation’s capital, compete for five hours and return back to school at 10:30 p.m. The series of meets gave the team the opportunity to begin the outdoor competi- tive season in March. The same 50 students who took advantage of the Otta- wa experience will be par- ticipating in OFSAA Cen- tral Region championships. Seven of eight relay teams qualified for the champion- ships to be held at York Uni- versity. Titles earned by the team included LOSSA co-ed champs, over- all girls’ champs, over- all boys’ champs, senior girls’ champs, junior girls’ champs, overall midget girls’ champs, senior boys’ champs and midget boys’ champs. In total, Pickering won 22 gold, 22 silver and 15 bronze for a total of 59 medals. The team earned 742 overall points, topping last year’s total of 693. Winner goes to OFSAA in Hamilton PICKERING -- It will be an all-Western division final Thursday in the LOSSA senior girls’ Quad-A soccer championships at the Ajax Sportsplex. The three time defend- ing LOSSA champions from St. Mary will be looking to make it four in a row when they take on Pickering, with the winner earning the right to travel to Hamilton for the OFSAA provincial champi- onships from June 3-5. Pickering enters the game as the favourite, having posted a 5-0-1 record in league play, while St. Mary finished 2-2-2 after start- ing the season with a pair of losses, including a 3-1 set- back to Pickering. St. Mary turned it on in the playoffs in defence of their title, beating O’Neil 4-0 on the strength of two goals by Nicole Mayers and singles to Tatiana Amburs- ley and Michelle Durante, blanking Paul Dwyer 1-0 in the quarterfinals on a Jes- sica Craig marker, and get- ting past Sinclair by the same 1-0 score in the semi- finals. Michelle Durante had the lone goal, while Tianna Robinson recorded her third-straight shutout.

HOCKEY Nemisz a Memorial Cup champion once more DURHAM -- The Ajax- Pickering Dolphins ban- tam OMFL team kicked off the club’s 2010 season with a 13-6 victory over the Brantford Bisons at the Wayne Gretzky Centre in Brantford. Playing in its inaugural season in the OMFL, the team of 14- and 15-year- olds was determined to come away with a win. The Dolphins controlled the ball for much of the game, but failed to score until late in the fourth quarter. Stellar running was pro- vided by Andy Collison following the lead blocks of Kyler Woodburne. Sean Skerlj provided leadership at the QB position, guid- ing the team up the field on several long drives. Key catches were made by the receiving core, including a crucial first-down catch by Rion Johnson and a TD catch by Morgan Humes. On defense, Imad Mou- rad was all over the field leading the defense and getting involved in almost every tackle. Brantford failed to make much prog- ress running the ball up the middle, stopped by Andrew Garabedian and Cameron Smith. The pass- ing game was stopped by a competent group of defen- sive backs, including Kyle Nancoo, Jackson Lyder and Adam Aranah. Linebackers Zach Kerr and Kyle Kelly also made outstanding contributions on defence. Jesse St. John was the player of the game. Not only did he throw a touch- down pass, but he also picked off an Bisons’ pass and returned it for a touch- down to give the Dolphins the lead. Michael Ciano was successful on the con- vert attempt. In the final play of the game, St. John picked off a Hail Mary from the Bisons’ offence. almost returning it to the house before being tackled on the one-yard line as time expired. The Bantam Dolphins next game is Sunday, May 30 at 4 p.m. at Kinsmen Park in Pickering ver- sus the Niagara Storm. The Dolphins have a full slate of games this coming weekend beginning at 8:15 p.m. on Friday, May 28 at Kinsmen Field in Pickering against Durham rivals, the Clarington Tigercats (Junior OMFL). On Sat- urday, May 29 all three of club’s OV teams will be playing, with the senior team playing Etobicoke at 1 p.m., followed by the pee- wees versus Brantford at 4 p.m. and the juniors facing Newmarket at 7 p.m. The fun continues on Sunday. In addition to the bantam game, the peewee OMFL team will play the TNT Express at 1 p.m. and the senior OMFL team will play the Orangeville Out- laws at 7 p.m. All games will be played at the Dol- phins home field, Kins- men Park, which is located at the foot of Sandy Beach Road in Pickering. FOOTBALL Bantam Dolphins win opener SHAWN CAYLEY scayley@durhamregion.com WINDSOR -- It’s been a quite a whirlwind tour for Greg Nemisz the past four years. The Courtice resident and veteran Windsor Spitfires forward is coming off his second consecutive Memo- rial Cup championship and, as time wound down in Sun- day’s 9-1 drubbing of the host Brandon Wheat Kings, Nemisz admits it was hard not to reflect on the long, sometimes difficult, road traveled. It wasn’t all that long ago things weren’t so rosy for the now two-time champs. In 2006-07, Nemisz’s rook- ie year in Windsor, the club won only 18 games and finished second worst in the entire Ontario Hockey League. But by bottoming out as such, that brought the dynamic Taylor Hall into the fold. And he, along with Nemisz, Bowmanville’s Josh Bailey and host of others, began the turnaround of the franchise, leading them to the playoffs in 2007-08 fol- lowed by the two league and Memorial Cup titles. “It’s a credit to our organi- zation,” Nemisz, a Calgary Flames prospect, said of the turnaround. ”They’ve had a goal since the group of us showed up here. We’ve talk- ed about it, but it’s an easy thing to say you’re going to turn around an organiza- tion and you’re going to win championships. To actu- ally follow through with it is amazing.” Windsor’s road to this championship was shaped much different than last. A year ago, the club was on the brink of tournament elimination following loss- es in each of their first two games. They then needed to reel off four straight victories, including one in a tiebreaker, to capture the prize, which they did in dramatic fashion. This one was much more anti-climactic. Windsor opened the tour- nament with a 9-3 victo- ry over Brandon and then dumped Calgary 6-2 to reach the final before winning a meaningless 4-3 overtime game against Moncton to close out the round robin. Nemisz is eligible to return to Windsor as an overager next season, but is likely tick- eted for the Flames’ Ameri- can Hockey League affiliate. durhamregion.comNews Advertiser • May 27, 201020 AP GREEN STREET MANSION Now Hiring for ALL POSITIONS Servers, Bartenders, Dishwashers, Cooks, etc. Competitive wages & great work environment Apply in person: Sat.
