Pickering residents piqued by ‘weed patch’ BUTTERFLY MEADOW AT DAVID FARR PARK DRAWS IRE OF NEIGHBOURS KRISTEN CALIS kcalis@durhamregion.com PICKERING -- Some residents are ticked off with a butterfly meadow they’re calling nothing more than a weed patch at David Farr Memorial Park. Next to the tennis courts at the park on Glenan- na Road, the City created a naturalized area to attract butterflies two years ago, but now resi- dents have had enough of the weeds they keep seeing. City landscape and parks development coor- dinator Arnold Mostert said the butterfly mead- ow, which contains around 20 different species of plants such as fox sedge and little bluestem, is different from a traditional butterfly garden, which normally features perennials. Pickering resident Richard Fleming finds it an eyesore.

The cash, cars and drugs were seized as part of Project Daring, started in early May as a partnership between Durham police and the Ontario Provincial Police’s organized crime enforcement bureau. The investigation resulted in 37 people, aged 21 to 55, facing 156 charges. Of those charged, 31 are from Durham Region. The probe also uncovered an illegal Internet sports betting operation. “It’s another means of benefiting from crim- inal work,” Detective Inspector Steve Clegg of the OPP said. “Sports betting has been around forever; we have legalized sports betting in Ontario but there is an offence for those peo- ple that choose to run their own operations.” Police seized $148,373; street drugs with an estimated worth of $450,000 including 19 pounds of marijuana, 2,697 grams of cocaine and 5,000 ecstasy tablets; and a fleet of vehi- cles including a 1999 Ford Mustang and a 2007 Yukon Denali. “I’d like the residents of Durham to know that it’s significant. It’s concerning because it’s a criminal enterprise but I want them to have the confidence in our police service to know that we will continue to do our best in these types of organized crimes,” Deputy Chief Burns said.

Summer Sidewalk Sale Thursday, July 15th - Sunday, July 18th Residents say they’re shocked City is withdrawing legal action REKA SZEKELY rszekely@durhamregion.com PICKERING -- Seeing little chance of victory, the City of Pickering is looking to settle a lawsuit with York Region over the expansion of a massive pipe that will carry sewage to the Duffin Creek sewage plant. Last fall, Pickering councillors decided to launch a legal battle against York over whether residents were properly consulted when York Region decided to put an odour control facility close to the Cherrywood West subdivision to accommodate the expansion of the York-Durham sewer line, known as the Big Pipe. Though the facility is now planned to sit just west of the York-Durham Townline, a vocal group of Pickering residents continue to say they weren’t properly con- sulted on the issue. At Monday’s final council meeting before the sum- mer break, Mayor Dave Ryan announced council had decided not to continue with a lawsuit, but instead would look to settle with York Region. The City had not yet reached the point of actually filing the lawsuit. “Should the City proceed on its current legal course, which quite frankly has very little chance of success, the resultant financial implications would significant- ly impact our budget and tax rate,” said the mayor. He added later that the battle would likely cost the City millions and wouldn’t likely see a positive out- come. The Ministry of the Environment approved the environmental assessment for the Big Pipe expansion this spring. Pickering will abandon legal action and look for a settlement that’s financially beneficial to the City and ensures proper environmental controls are imple- mented, said the mayor. The decision to abandon the lawsuit was made behind closed doors due to attorney-client privilege, said Mayor Ryan. The negotiations will remain quiet until a settlement is reached, at which point details will be made public. Like other opponents to the Big Pipe expansion, Pickering resident Peter Herrmann said he was very surprised the City was looking to settle. He’d like to see the lawsuit proceed. CITY HALL Pickering drops ‘Big Pipe’ lawsuit against York “There might be financial benefits for Pickering if they settle, but that’s outweighed by the consequences of hav- ing a billion litres of sewage flowing through our city,” said Mr. Herrmann. Following the meeting, Mayor Ryan said he expected some would be upset by council’s decision. “I appreciate the residents who have been involved in this may not necessarily like or agree with this action,” he said. “(But) council as a whole have come to the conclu- sion this is the best action on behalf of all of the residents of Pickering.” So far, Pickering has spent about $320,000 on the legal battle with York. Should the City proceed on its current legal course...the resultant financial implications would significantly impact our budget and tax rate.

Inquest jury examining death at Pickering police station recommends better monitoring of prisoners JEFF MITCHELL jmitchell@durhamregion.com DURHAM -- Steps should be taken to enhance the monitoring of prisoners, a cor- oner’s jury examining the death of a man at a Durham police station has ruled. The five-person jury recommended that all interview rooms in Durham police sta- tions should have windows so officers can see for themselves if prisoners are in med- ical distress. The recommendation came after two days of testimony last week about the death of Salvatore Ruscica, who died of a cocaine overdose while being held at the Pickering police station in November of 2007. Jurors heard that Mr. Ruscica, 47, likely absorbed the toxic dose of cocaine from a bag of the drug he concealed in his rectum. He was taken into custody after crashing his SUV into a parked vehicle on Williamson Drive in Ajax on the evening of Nov. 9, 2007. He was being held in an interview room at the Pickering station when he began having seizures in the early morning hours of Nov. 10, and died as he was being rushed to hos- pital. Inquests are mandatory in all in-custody deaths. The jury ruled Mr. Ruscica’s death accidental, the result of cocaine toxicity. A 2007 probe of the incident by the Prov- ince’s Special Investigations Unit cleared the Durham officers involved of any wrong- doing in Mr. Ruscica’s death. Officers who testified during the inquest, held July 5 and 6 at the Oshawa courthouse, said Mr. Ruscica was compliant and coher- ent when he was taken into custody. A couple of hours after he was arrest- ed officers heard sounds coming from the room where Mr. Ruscica was being held and found him having a seizure, the inquest heard. Durham Emergency Medical Services paramedic Christopher Ratcliff testified he and a partner arrived to find the man agitat- ed and confused, common traits for patients who’ve experienced seizures. Officers testified that since Mr. Ruscica’s death, holding rooms at the station have been equipped with cameras so prisoners can be monitored.

I can’t hear the soft whooshing sound of the OPG wind generator in Pickering unless I am practically underneath it; the waves on the beach are louder. At my home just south of Bayly Street, the noise, vibration and air pollution from Hwy. 401 and the CN rail lines are always present except when weather patterns temporarily change the normal conditions. These health irritants are minor compared to the window-shaking vibrations noticed whenever the Durham police helicopter flies over. `Where are the studies of health effects on Pickering residents living near major trans- portation corridors, as well as health haz- ards and risks of transportation accidents, derailments and spills? Why isn’t Pickering council proposing a moratorium on devel- opment until health effects on people have been studied? `The bylaw quoted in the article claimed that wind turbines “cause serious health effects.” Give me a break. In comparison with typical conditions near downtown Pickering, wind turbines in the lake seem genuinely peaceful. Frank Dempsey Pickering BYLAWS If you park illegally, you deserve a ticket To the editor: Re: Canada Day Ticket a ‘cash grab’. I live in Ajax and every year must put up with all the parked cars during the festivi- ties that are held at Rotary Park. I was even asked for proof of my address once while attempting to come home after being away for the day. `“No parking” signs are clearly marked and are up for several weeks beforehand so there should be no excuses. Anyone who got a ticket deserved it for being stu- pid enough to park where it clearly shows “no parking”. `Maybe next time these people will obey the signs and not all the other illegally parked vehicles. Jeannine Brown Ajax SPRAWL Durham is Ontario’s delinquent child To the editor: It comes as no surprise that the Region of Durham has once again decided to ignore The Province and forge ahead with its declaration of sensitive lands in north Pickering as “future urban”. The Toronto Region Conservation Authority declared these lands as sensitive. The Province understands this, as does the mayor of Ajax. So why doesn’t Durham Region understand what so many oth- ers do? The Region of Durham is viewed by most provincial representatives as the delinquent child of Ontario, due to its anti- quated and persistently arcane views. When are we going to get rid of the dino- saurs on Durham Regional Council who have the cut-it-and-pave-it mentality, and elect representatives who have a firm grasp of environmental affairs and acknowledge the demands of an educated constituen- cy? Michael Fearon Greenwood CONSERVATION Child’s letter was touching and wise To the editor: Re: ‘We must take care of Earth’, letter to the editor, New Advertiser, Thursday, July 8.

Emergency response personnel in Dur- ham Region know that better than most. Police, paramedics and firefighters rou- tinely confront the human impact of motor vehicle crashes, fire, industrial accidents and everyday calamities that cause injury. They know, too, that blood donations are desperately needed in the summer months when people are busy with outings and vacations and other seasonal pursuits. Durham Regional Police Services Chief Mike Ewles issued a challenge last week to other emergency responders as part of the annual Sirens for Life initiative to see which group can donate the most blood to replen- ish the supply for Canadian Blood Services. Durham EMS Deputy Chief Steve McNenly cheerfully accepted. This is the seventh year in which emergency personnel in Durham have taken up the cause to donate. Through the collective effort of police, EMS and their families and supporters again this year, CBS should see a bump in local supply stocks to help carry the agency through the summer. Residents across Dur- ham Region can also join the cause, roll up their sleeves and give a little of themselves to boost the campaign and ensure an even greater supply of blood and blood products that are required. These donations assist victims who require emergency surgery, or provide necessary therapy for those with chronic blood diseases and disorders. Currently, according to CBS officials, the demand for blood and blood products is up two per cent this year. That translates into a need for 927,000 units annually, or roughly 85,000 new donors. Emergency response professionals in Durham are taking the lead, but would welcome donations from the community at large to help bolster their effort. If every eligible donor in the region made a point of giving blood at a community clinic, the Sirens for Life initiative would be ensured success. Check to see when a local clinic is being held in your neighbourhood. Take time out of your day to donate. Recruit eli- gible friends and relatives and help ensure Sirens for Life meets its goal. It doesn’t take much effort or time. But the donation could provide the chance of a life- time for someone who receives it. Police and EMS officials are doing their part once again. Let us do ours as well and take it over the top. To set up a donation appointment, call CBS at 1-888-2-DONATE (1-888-236-6283).

While wind energy is still relatively new to Ontario, global wind energy capacity has been expanding by more than 25 per cent annually for the past 15 years. Wind energy is steadily providing a solution as Canadian communities look to improve the environ- mental performance of their electricity sys- tems while creating new manufacturing and employment opportunities. Ontario has a tremendous wind energy opportunity and it stands to gain enormously. Ontario’s new renewable energy approv- al process requires that developers consult with municipalities, First Nations and the public about their plans, and submit the results of those discussions as part of their application. After an application is filed, it is posted on the Province’s Environmental Registry for public review and comment. The Canadian Wind Energy Association (CanWEA) is now developing best prac- tice guidelines for community engagement that will exceed the minimum requirements established by law. We often hear questions related to wind turbines and human health. Ontario Chief Medical Officer of Health Dr. Arlene King issued a report on May 20, entitled The Poten- tial Health Impact of Wind Tur- bines. On the day it was released, she stated: “According to the scien- tific evidence, there isn’t any direct causal link between wind turbine noise and adverse health effects.” Another prevalent area of interest relates to wind turbines and property values. Last March, Lawrence Berke- ley National Laboratory released the most comprehensive and data-rich analysis ever undertaken on the impact of wind power projects on residential property values in the United States. The study used eight differ- ent models to assess the sale of 7,500 homes around 24 different wind farms over an 11-year period in the United States. It found that on average, there was no conclusive evidence of any widespread property value effects (positive or negative) resulting from the wind farms. People across Ontario are considering a range of small wind energy systems that can be used to power a cottage, farm, or small commercial operation. CanWEA is now working with other stake- holders to incorporate these kinds of proj- ects into Ontario’s Green Energy Act by ask- ing for a more non-discriminatory Feed-in- Tariff rate relative to those rates paid to commercial developers. There are a growing number of commu- nities across Canada benefitting from new local investment, job creation and tax reve- nue all associated with wind energy devel- opment. We are convinced that by working in part- nership with municipal governments and local residents, our industry can help a growing number of Ontario communities capture the benefits of wind energy. -- Robert Hornung is president of the Canadian Wind Energy Association Benefits of wind energy are beyond clean Guest Column At work recently, a bunch of us were talking about what we were going to do on the upcoming weekend. I said I had to put the dog in the canoe. People looked at me with raised eye- brows. Then one of them asked me if “put the dog in the canoe” wasn’t some kind of sexual euphemism. I explained that, no, it unfortunately was not anything close to that; I really did have to get my dog into the canoe. Owen, our Great Dane/Lab mix, has not yet been canoe ‘trained’. And as I spend a lot of time in the canoe fish- ing, tripping etc., it’s nice when my dogs can come along too. Ianto, Owen’s predecessor, was a canoe- ing marvel. He loved the boat and the minute you even touched a paddle or a life vest he’d be sitting in the car waiting for you. He was quiet and still in the boat, too. Even when I was pulling a flopping bass over the gunwales, he’d simply sit and stare, vibrating like a cello string...but he would never come close to tipping us. I sensed Owen might be slightly more of a challenge. For starters, at just under a year old, he’s already much bigger than Ianto ever was and he’s all legs. A high centre of gravity is never a plus in a canoe. Also, even at his most sedate, Owen is about as placid as a game-show contes- tant. I frankly didn’t like my chances. So, fully expecting to get soaked, I took us to a sandy, shallow, unpopulated beach on Lake Simcoe. I threw his blanket into the bow, and asked him to hop in. To my delight and astonishment he immediately jumped in, sat on his blanket and did exactly as he was told. We shoved off and he was terrif- ic. It was as though he’d been doing this all his life. He passed every test with flying colours. Even when we paddled past a gabbling flock of geese, resting on the waves just feet from the boat, he only whined like crazy and beseeched me with a ‘Come on! If we both jump in, one of us is bound to get one’ kind of look. He really was good. He shifted around a bit, getting his bearings and smelling everything around him, trying to lean over and drink from the lake, but with a little hip-shifting of my own I was easily able to compensate and keep us trim. When I spied the beach on the way back in, however, my heart sank. Frolick- ing kiddies had suddenly appeared out of nowhere. They were dressed in bright colors and racing back and forth along the shore. Owen loves kids. And brightly dressed ones who run about erratically are his favourite kind of toy. I could see his interest piquing instant- ly. Then, just to make our landing the perfect storm, some guy appeared out of nowhere with one of those dogs that looks like a yapping Kleenex box cover. The kind Owen likes to floss with. The beach was suddenly a target-rich environment. I groaned. Things had been going so well. I’d have a better chance of getting ashore dry at Dieppe than at this place. Then, when we were nearly there, Owen did something he almost never does. He obeyed me. He ignored the shrieking kiddies and even trotted past the -- by now apoplec- tic -- snarling fur ball, and hopped up into the van. He had a different look all of a sudden. A look that said, I’ve grown up. I’m a canoe- dog now. Unfortunately, I think it also said, ‘You owe me one, buddy’. -- Durham resident Neil Crone, actor-comic-writer, saves some of his best lines for his columns. Owen proves himself to be canoe worthy NEIL CRONE Election coverage: What do you want? The question asked most often in the last few weeks? What are your plans for munic- ipal election coverage? The candidates are champing at the bit, anxious to start getting some ink. The question of how soon to start our organized election coverage is a bit of a challenge. The deadline to register as a candidate in the Oct. 25 municipal elec- tion is Sept. 10. If we start our coverage too soon, we may miss candidates who wait until the final hour to register. On the other hand, one might think a serious candidate would have made their intentions known by now. First things first: before deciding what course to take in election coverage we’d like to hear from the public. On the candidates’ vital statistics, what information is important to know when preparing to cast your ballot? Do you care about their age, their schooling, how long they’ve lived here, what they do for a living, their political or volunteer background, the address of their Facebook or Twitter page? On the job itself, what do you want to know about their platform and their phi- losophies? Do you care what they think about taxes, transparency in govern- ment, decorum, how quickly they answer a phone call or e-mail, what type of input they would seek before deciding to spend your money? We’d love to hear your thoughts on these issues and will use that information to guide us in preparing our coverage. • Join the Facebook conversation on the issue at http://www.facebook.com/news- durham. • E-mail your thoughts to newsroom@durhamregion.com.

And orthopedic surgeon Dr. Hamdi BenFayed and the staff at the Rouge Valley Ajax and Pickering hospital want to help her do just that. All her life, the Whitby resident has been walking with a cane due to rheumatoid arthritis in her feet, and has suffered from a hammertoe on both her left and right feet. “Now it’s getting worse and worse with age and the arthritis is getting worse too,” the 48-year-old patient said as she waited for her day surgery. And it’s not just the pain that’s become a problem. “When you are under pain on a daily basis, your patience is not there anymore,” she said. “You just lose it...because the pain is too high.” So last year, Ms. Boyd chose to have sur- gery to straighten out her right foot. “You take so much Tylenol for the pain, but enough is enough,” she said. Ms. Boyd entrusted herself to Dr. Ben- Fayed to help her finally walk comfortably. A year later, the time had come for Ms. Boyd to get her other foot fixed, and the News Advertiser was allowed to scrub up and go behind the scenes to follow Ms. Boyd along on her journey. Dr. BenFayed was going to straighten her left big toe, as well as realign her other toes, in order to stabilize her foot and make it easier for her to walk. “It’s common for rheumatoid patients,” the doctor said. The hopeful patient wasn’t overly ner- vous about the procedure or her recovery; after years of pain, she has a high pain tol- erance, but wasn’t sure if she wanted to take the anesthetics. “I think I would like to be awake but I think I’ll be afraid at the same time,” she said. “I will hear everything that they’re saying and I don’t know if I want to.” In the operating room, preparing for surgery, scrub nurse Monica Phillips was ensuring all the necessary equipment was in place. “I am responsible for seeing they have the right instruments at the right time,” she said as she scrubbed up. The beeping of the monitors was contin- uous as Ms. Boyd patiently waited for the surgery to begin. In walked a friendly anesthesiologist, Dr. Magdi Gaid, who asked Ms. Boyd if she’d prefer to stay awake or sleep for the sur- gery. “I don’t know,” she said. “I’m a ner- vous person, so I don’t know what you rec- ommend.” With that, Dr. Gaid said he’d give her the anaesthetic. After checking her blood pressure, giving her oxygen and antibiotics, Dr. Gaid froze her leg from the knee down. The nurses and doctors buzzed around Ms. Boyd for about 20 minutes, constantly checking her status, asking if she felt com- fortable and communicating with one another in a team-like fashion. When Dr. BenFayed scrubbed up, put his gown and gloves on, a nurse read out the patient’s chart and the doctor prepared for the surgery. “Now you’re going to go to sleep and have sweet dreams, OK?” Dr. Gaid told Ms. Boyd. When the anesthetic worked its magic, the News Advertiser was asked to leave the room while the procedure took place -- doctor’s orders. About an hour later, the News Advertiser met Ms. Boyd in the recovery room. “Hi, good morning. Anything hurt? No? Hallelujah,” Dr. Gaid said. After a short recovery period, she’d go home later that day. She only had pleas- ant things to stay about her doctor and the Rouge Valley staff. “I loved them,” the groggy patient said. Dr. BenFayed said he enjoys helping patients in Ms. Boyd’s situation. “She’ll walk the same way as she did before, minus the pain basically,” he said. Dr. BenFayed was going to see her a week later at the fracture clinic. “For the second week, she’ll be able to walk with the cast,” he said. A week later, her stitches would come out, and she’d then wear a cast for six to eight weeks. At a later date, Dr. BenFayed will retouch her right foot, which is much bet- ter than before her surgery last year, but not quite pain-free, Ms. Boyd said. Ms. Boyd was looking forward to the day she could go on the treadmill and get some exercise, keep up with her husband on walks, and to finally be able to partake in just about every woman’s favourite pas- time: shoe shopping. On the procedure: ‘They are shifting everything to have what we call a normal foot...’ Patient Brigitte Boyd agreed to allow the Metroland Durham Region Media Group to follow her surgery to repair her left foot. Following is an audio excerpt of her experience during the procedure at Rouge Valley Health System’s Ajax-Pickering site. On activity: ‘I try the treadmill, but it doesn’t work for me because my feet are too much...’ Post-operative recovery: ‘I have big tolerance for pain, so that part doesn’t bother me at all...’ On reparing her right foot: ‘I can rock and roll after that...’ Her left foot SABRINA BYRNES / METROLAND AJAX -- Anesthesiologist Dr. Magdi Gaid, left photo, prepares patient Brigitte Boyd for surgery on her foot April 22. The Whitby woman has suffered through the symptoms and disfiguration related to rheu- matoid arthritis and underwent the surgery to help her walk without enduring pain. Above, Ms. Boyd casts a wary glance as the medical team prepares her for the surgery at the Ajax site of the Rouge Valley Health System.

Now she has so much to look forward to parkway retirement residence PHOTO: ARNIE LEE durhamregion.comNews Advertiser • July 14, 201012 P “They can say anything they want,” he said. “It’s a weed patch.” The City had landscape consultant Schol- len and Company Inc. inspect the meadow on June 22. The report said the garden is successful and found a number of butterflies at the site. They found a small amount of weeds, thistle, one Manitoba maple seedling (both have been removed) and a small patch of purple loose- strife. Common weeds such as dandelion were found in some areas around the perim- eter, but the report noted the species are com- mon in the area. Mr. Fleming finds it unacceptable, and noted the residents he’s spoken to agree they’ve seen very few butterflies and the weeds have been terrible for allergy sufferers. Mr. Mostert noted there is no ragweed in the meadow, which is a common culprit for allergies. He said the area requires less staff time to cut grass, meaning fewer costs and less fumes from the lawn mower. “We’re actually saving the environment and saving the taxpayers some money,” he said. Mr. Fleming says he’s found condoms and beer bottles in the meadow. While he can understand benefits of naturalizing areas, he said it shouldn’t be at the park, and he would have appreciated being consulted before- hand. “We hate things being foisted on us,” he said. He also questioned why the area -- where he’s seen growth taller than four feet -- is exempt from the City’s own bylaw that states weeds and grass must be 15 centimetres in length or less. Kim Thompson, manager of bylaw services, explained the bylaw is for developed lands only, such as residential and commercial properties. “It’s not relevant in any way,” she said, add- ing the Toronto and Region Conservation Area also has a number of naturalized areas in Pickering. The consultants suggested the City remove all invasive species, trim the edges of the meadow, add some flowers, mow the area each year and add signs to enhance public awareness. Mr. Mostert said he’s heard the concerns of the community, but until staff has direction to take an alternate route, they’ll maintain the area and perhaps add some colour. At the last council meeting of the summer on Monday, the issue was raised, but council did not give specific direction to staff. Instead it will be up to Pickering’s chief administrative officer to make a decision about the garden. REPORT from page 1 They can say anything they want. It’s a weed patch.

PICKERING -- Every Thursday this sum- mer, pioneers at the Pickering Museum Vil- lage will offer all kinds of arts, crafts and games for kids. In July and August, the museum, located at 2365 Concession Rd. 6, will host its Kids in the Village Heritage Games and Craft program. Parents and children can spend morn- ings playing heritage games and participat- ing in hands-on craft activities. The program is ideal for children from preschool age to 12 and runs from 10 a.m. to noon. Crafts will include dream catchers on July 15, paper quilts on July 22 and miniature ticks and feather pillows on July 29. One of the games, Blind Man’s Bluff, which is basically a version of tag, dates as far back as ancient Greece. It was also pop- ular in the Victorian era and offers great exercise for the kids. There is no pre-registration required for the program, but groups with six or more children should call ahead of time to ensure supplies are available to accommo- date them. Participants are welcome to pack a lunch to enjoy once the program is finished, and to take a tour of the museum village.

WINDSHIELDSWINDSHIELDS MOST WINDSHIELDS INSTALLED UNDER $229.00 DURHAM -- A golf tournament that started as a way to help a sick friend is growing into a suc- cessful annual tradition. In 2008, local resident Cortnie Henry decided to organize a golf tournament to benefit the Hospi- tal for Sick Children. She teaches dance and was inspired by one of her students, Madison Scott, who was diagnosed with leukemia in 2007. Ms. Henry said learning about Madison’s bat- tle made her realize how many people have been touched by the work of SickKids. “Little did I know how many of my friends and family have been in some way or another involved in SickKids, including my older brother Jorden, who suffered a brain injury when he was a baby,” she says. The third annual tournament tees off Aug. 14 at Glen Cedars Golf Club in Claremont. It costs $150 per golfer, which includes 18 holes of golf, a cart and starter kit, lunch, dinner and a prize. This year’s fundraising goal is $20,000. Non-golfers are welcome for dinner only at a cost of $50, and hole sponsorships are $120 each.

To the end of May, Durham projects a $700,000 sur- plus. The surplus would be $1.2 million if not for a $500,000 deficit in social assistance costs. Caseloads in the income and employment sup- port division (Ontario Works) continue to increase, although the rise is less than expected. “However, at this time, it is too early to determine if the trend of caseload and related costs will contin- ue through the balance of the year,” a report from finance department staff noted. There are about 9,740 cases on Ontario Works, which is about 100 cases lower than expected. In May of last year, there were about 8,830 OW cases. Others areas in the social services department are project- ing a $500,000 surplus, and that will offset the increased OW costs. Most departments projecting savings report this is primar- ily due to staff vacancies.

The Pickering resident has accepted a schol- arship to attend Waldorf College in Forest City, Iowa, where he will spend the next four years on the school’s golf team. “It is a small, quiet, peaceful school,” says the St. Mary Catholic Secondary School grad of his visit to the Iowa school. “I liked the small-town feel.” A golfer since the age of four, Doria says the thought of heading to the United States on a scholarship first came to mind in the summer of Grade 11. At that time, his game was continu- ing to improve while he played GAO and Dur- ham Golf Tour events. He talked to a number of schools over the past year, but Waldorf was the top choice. The school is happy to have him. “Connor is a quality individual who we are looking forward to having as a student at Wal- dorf College and as a member of our men’s golf team. He has the ability to come in and positive- ly impact our golf program as well as our student leadership on campus. He will be an asset to our community,” notes Waldorf College’s men’s golf coach, Mason Babcock in a press release. Doria was a member of the varsity team at St. Mary for four years, including Grade 9, when he regularly competed against players in their fourth and fifth years. In the past two years, he was the team’s MVP. “Connor has been an exceptional golfer,” says St. Mary golf coach Graham Joaquin. “He’s just a great all around kid.” In preparation for the trek to Iowa in August, Doria will be busy this summer honing his game. He has already competed at the U.S. Junior Amateur, firing rounds of 73-77 for a 150 total, missing the 141 cutline by nine strokes. Also on the docket is a trip to Quebec for a Future Links tournament, and the Ontario Junior Masters. While at Waldorf, Doria will study sports man- agement.durhamregion.comNews Advertiser • July 14, 201016 AP Sports Brad Kelly Sports Editor bkelly@durhamregion.com durhamregion.com facebook.com/sportsdurhamregion twitter.com/scnewsdurham COLLEGE Durham Lords honoured for giving back to community NORTH YORK -- The Durham Col- lege Lords have been honoured for their community service efforts.

Canada Basketball announced the 2010 Development Men’s National Team (DMNT) tryout/ training camp roster, camp sched- ule and international competi- tions for the summer season. The camp runs from July 11-16 at Air Canada Centre in Toronto, fol- lowed by a competition tour in Europe. From July 17 to Aug. 2, the DMNT will play a series of exhibi- tion games against Cote D’Ivoire, Belgium, Great Britain, Finland, Netherlands and Spain. Following the tour, athletes from the team will be selected to continue with the Senior Men’s National Team (SMNT) training camp beginning in August. “The development team has become an integral part of our national team program,” said Andrew Cook, Manager of Men’s Elite Performance for Canada Bas- ketball. “Over the last few years we have had a growing number of very talented athletes within our age group national teams. This team gives us the opportunity to get them the high level interna- tional experience they need to be prepared to join the senior team in future years or, for some, later this year in Turkey.” The 2010 edition of the DMNT invitees includes 12 NCAA and CIS players, including Pickering’s Joseph, a 6-foot-3 guard who will be entering his junior year of eli- gibility at the University of Minne- sota this season. “Coming off our bronze medal accomplishments with the Junior and Cadet men, I’m looking for- ward to working with these players to continue their development,” said Senior and Development Men’s head coach Leo Rautins. “This camp and exhibition tour is a win-win for everyone involved, players and coaches, as we gain international exposure and expe- rience for players who will be a big part of our future.” durhamregion.comNews Advertiser • July 14, 201018 AP SUBMITTED PHOTO Red Sox are tops PICKERING -- Through the rain and the sunshine, the Pickering Red Sox minor peewee baseball team prevailed over the competition at the Greater Niagara Baseball Association tournament.

LACROSSE Durham leads the way DURHAM -- In typical fash- ion, Durham Region is being extremely well represent- ed as Team Ontario Lacrosse announces the squads that will represent the province at com- ing national championships. Tessa Chad of Orono is the first member of the Clarington Gaels organization to be named to a girls’ provincial team, as she will join the bantams at the annual Ontario Lacrosse Festival, which runs out of the Iroquois Park Sports Centre in Whitby from July 30 to Aug. 9. That team also has plenty of talent from the Whitby sys- tem, including Amanda Ker- nohan and Kendra Parenteau of Oshawa and Rachel Lepine, Kennedy Milburn and Donna Ward of Whitby. The bantam boys’ team also has one member of the Clar- ington system, Bowmanville’s Mitchell Burghardt, along with three from Whitby minor, Osha- wa’s Riley Palmer, Whitby’s Jon- athan Leclerc and Brooklin’s Dawson Theede. The peewee boys’ team, which like the bantam teams will vie for national gold at the Festival, is loaded with locals, five com- ing from Clarington minor and three from Whitby. Tanner Cook, Luke Keenan and Steven Walsh of Courtice, Luke Burghardt of Bowmanville and Steven Cote of Oshawa play out of Clarington, while Ryan Barn- able, Callan Foote and Jack Han- ley, all of Whitby, play for their home centre.

Casey, Heather In loving memory of a beautiful wife, affectionate mother, and proud grand- mother who left us on July 13th, 2009. Gone yet not forgotten, Although we are apart, Your spirit lives within us, Forever in our hearts. We think of you in silence, We often speak your name, But all we have are memories, And your picture in a frame. Your resting place we visit, And put ﬂ owers there with care, But no one knows the heartache, As we turn and leave you there. Loved with a love beyond telling, missed by Husband Charles, Son Peter & Wife Melissa, Daughter Tara, Grandchildren Quinten & Caraghan, Nanny & Papa with a grief beyond tears.

JUNIOR LACROSSE PLAYOFFS Warriors, Green Gaels in tough SHAWN CAYLEY scayley@durhamregion.com WHITBY -- The Whitby Warriors lost their composure and it almost cost them a win Monday night. Up 7-2 heading into the third period of their opening game of the OLA junior A playoffs against the Brampton Excelsiors, the Warriors looked to be home and cooled after completely dominat- ing the second period and taking the five-goal lead. To that point their offence had clicked enough to build the lead, and their now-trademark smoth- ering defense did their part to limit the Brampton chances on goaltender Alexis Buque. But the third period was a com- pletely different animal. Brampton mounted a come- back, putting a scare into the Warriors, making it 7-5 and then threatening to turn the game around completely, thanks in large part to a string of Warriors penalties that killed their own offence and handed over the momentum to the hard-charging Excelsiors. Despite emerging with the 7- 5 victory, the disturbing turn- around from the second to third period wasn’t lost on Warriors coach Derek Keenan. “Composure is key in the play- offs. What we did in the third peri- od was we almost pissed it away.” Keenan said moments after the game. “We lost our composure at key times too, you know, when we’re on power plays or going on power plays or when we were already killing a penalty. Five-on- three’s are killers typically. For- tunately we got some really good defensive plays and some saves from Buque.” Game 2 is tonight in Bramp- ton, with Game 3 Friday back in Whitby, 8 p.m. If needed, Game 4 is in Brampton Sunday and Game 5 in Whitby on Monday •••• CLARINGTON -- If the Claring- ton Green Gaels don’t step up to the plate this coming weekend, what looked like a long playoff run could be cut extremely short. After splitting the first two games of their best-of-five sec- ond round playoff series with the Kahnawake Hunters, the Green Gaels now take to the road for at least two, possibly three games this weekend on the Kahnawake reserve. The heavy favourites heading into the series, Clarington played their role perfectly in last Satur- day’s opener, crushing the Hunt- ers 18-4 at the Garnet B. Rickard Recreation Complex. After a tight first period in that one, the Green Gaels blew things wide open, holding scoring advantages of 9-1 in the second and 6-1 in the third. Sunday was a much different story, however. The Green Gaels didn’t bring their ‘A’ game and the end result was an 11-9 loss, leaving the series tied 1-1. The task of winning two of the next three at Kahnawake will be a tough one for the Green Gaels, but not insurmountable. “They are so skilled and when they want and work hard for it, they can do it,” Crosbie said of his team, pointing to the Game 1 blowout as a prime example of what they are capable of. Though the Green Gaels should have held home floor advantage for the series, the next three are being played at Kahnawake after Clarington was unable to secure floor time for the fifth game due to a tournament being played at Garnet B. Rickard this weekend.
