They were on hand at the launch of CN’s new anti-graffiti program with the City of Pickering as the host community for the pilot project. Graffiti wiped out in Pickering CN WORKS WITH COMMUNITY TO TACKLE VANDALISM KRISTEN CALIS kcalis@durhamregion.com PICKERING -- There’s no point in defacing CN property in Pickering, because it’ll get covered up in no time, says Mayor Dave Ryan. Graffiti along the Canadian National Rail Line’s bridges and underpasses in Pickering was painted over last week and CN and the City of Pickering are working together to keep it clean. “CN is committed to working with the municipality to clean up the graffiti on its rail infrastructure and working with community organizations like Crime Stoppers and Pick- ering’s Eyes on the Street to ensure the graffiti does not return,” said Jeff Liepelt, senior vice president, Eastern Region, CN. CN introduced its Municipal Anti-Graffi- ti Program in Pickering Friday, choosing the city as its pilot project after Mayor Ryan had brought the situation to the attention of CN.

All eight of Durham’s municipalities had at least one run site. In Oshawa, about 400 runners met up at Storie Park on Mill Street. Gail Elliott was among them. She participated in her first Marathon of Hope in 1981. Although she did not meet Terry Fox when he visited Oshawa, she was inspired by his story. “He had so much strength and courage and he ran the equiv- alent of a marathon every day for 143 days. It’s awe inspiring,” she said. Terry’s goal was to collect $1 for cancer research from every Canadian and over the years, Ms. Elliott said she’s raised about $25,000. This year she raised about $2,300 and said it’s all from donations from friends and family. A retired teacher, Ms. Elliott said she would often share Ter- ry’s story with her students. “That’s the kind of person I always wanted my students to look up to, an ordinary person doing extraordinary things.” The runners in Oshawa came as families, individuals and teams to participate in this year’s run. Among them was Terry’s Team, all wearing red T-shirts. The team members are all cancer survivors. Lisa Caissie, who once suffered from leukemia, has been cancer free for 16 years. This year she was running for her mother. “I lost my mother to ovarian cancer four years ago, so this is in memory of her as well,” she said. “We know so many people who have been affected by cancer so it’s for them as well.” Terry’s Team member Bev Bilinski, sporting a “Love South Oshawa” pin, said she went through cancer treatment sessions in 2003 and 2004. She’s been cancer free since then. She said it’s important to keep raising dollars for research for a cure and for early detection. “Until we have a cure, the best thing we have is early detection,” she said. Ms. Bilinski was surrounded by friends and family at this year’s run including her two grandsons. She said she feels like one of the lucky ones and pointed out that at each year’s run there are people who are there in to honour loved ones they lost. “I really do think the survivors are the family members who lost someone to cancer,” said Ms. Bilinski. She echoed Terry’s plea for a $1 donation for every Canadian. “Anyone can give $1 ... if you’re a family of five, give $5. It saves lives.” To donate to the Terry Fox Foundation: VISIT www.terryfox.org RESEARCH FUNDRAISER Durham runners mark 30 years since Terry Fox’s cancer run RYAN PFEIFFER / METROLAND PICKERING -- Highland Creek pipers and drummers provided entertainment prior to the 30th annual Terry Fox Run starting from the Pickering Recreation Complex on Sunday, Sept. 19.

Police say after closing time on Sept. 17, four or five suspects, armed with a weapon, forced their way into the Harvey’s Restaurant in the Westney Road and Hwy. 2 area. Police say the suspects forced two employees to the ground and demanded the manag- er open up the safe. A large quantity of money was taken, and then the suspects fled the scene. CRIME Ajax restaurant robbed, suspects sought by police City explores options for ‘already congested’ area KRISTEN CALIS kcalis@durhamregion.com PICKERING -- Brock Road will see a lot more cars with the latest developments approved by council. At its last meeting of the term, council approved plans for a French school on Brock Road, as well as a mixed- use development nearby. The French school will cater to both elementary and secondary students and will also house a day nursery. The two-storey LEED-certified building will go on the east side of Brock Road, between Finch Avenue and Third Concession Road. The school board is negotiating with the Toronto and Region Conservation Authority to use some of the lands within a natural heritage feature for a full-size soccer field. The lands contain some trees, but are less signifi- cant than lands to the northeast, according to the staff report. Ward 2 City Councillor Doug Dickerson supports a French school, but insisted on increased access off Brock Road, noting constant issues at Pine Ridge Sec- ondary School resulting from limited access. “There has to be a better way,” he said at a previous COUNCIL French school approved for Pickering’s Brock Road planning and development meeting. Ward 1 City Councillor Jennifer O’Connell noted the amount of parking spaces must be taken seriously since a number of stu- dents will be driving from across Durham Region, and noted the daycare could mean more people will drop off their kids. Planning and development director Neil Carroll noted stud- ies show fewer students in French high schools drive than those at traditional high schools, but said he’d ask the French school board for more accurate student numbers for the future school. “It’s already a congested area that we have to get right,” he said. The mixed-use development will also go on the east side of Brock, just south of the Pickering Islamic Centre. The three-sto- rey building will consist of retail and office space and 13 live- work townhouse units. Ward 3 City Councillor David Pickles brought up resident con- cerns that there are already too many cars in the area along with jaywalkers and illegal parking on side streets. Ward 3 Regional Councillor Rick Johnson said “I believe this proposal can work, but I think it needs full access off Brock Road.” Staff, council and the commercial developer acknowledged the problems at the meeting and will look for solutions as the plans move forward. Solutions could include tighter parking restrictions and enforcement, plus increased access off of Brock Road as more land becomes available.

THE RETIREMENT OPTION OF CHOICE DURHAM -- A motorcyclist faces several charges following a high-speed pursuit along Hwy. 401 recently. A constable with the Whitby OPP saw a motorcyclist speeding eastbound on the 401 at Salem Road in Ajax around 1:30 p.m. When the officer attempted to pull the bike over, the cyclist sped off. The officer pursued and the motorcyclist traveled along the shoulder of the highway and re-entered traffic, cutting off other motor- ists. For safety reasons, the officer stopped the pursuit and notified Durham Regional Police. A short time later, Durham police had stopped the same motorcycle and notified the OPP constable, who attended the scene and confirmed the identity of the bike and cyclist. Derek Sealy, 33, has been charged with dangerous operation of a motor vehicle, flight from police, licence plate not clearly visible, driving while under suspension, driving with no validated permit, and performing a stunt, speeding in excess of 50 km/h over limit. He was released with a promise to appear. POLICE Motorcyclist charged following high-speed chase in Durham OSHAWA -- Police arrested an Oshawa couple after observing marijuana plants growing in a backyard. On Sept. 16, Durham Regional Police responded to an anonymous complaint about marijuana plants in a residential neigh- bourhood when they spotted several plants in a backyard “which were openly visible to members of the public,” according to a news release. After searching the home, police found 34.1 kilograms of marijuana and a replica hand- gun in a backyard shed. The street value of the drugs is estimated at $345,000. Riccardo Dasilva, 33, and Sofia Dasilva, 31, of Southridge Street in Oshawa, are charged with possession for the purpose of traffick- ing a controlled substance and production of a controlled substance.

In April, not long after a train derailment in Pickering, Mayor Ryan met with the Min- ister of Transport and the Minister of State for Transport to discuss the situation, not- ing seven derailments in Durham Region in the past six years was unacceptable. Mayor Ryan later met with CN represen- tatives about his safety concerns, but also raised the issue of graffiti that’s common- ly found on visible CN property not only in Pickering, but throughout Canada. CN had committed at the time to work on an ini- tiative to clean up the graffiti and prevent future vandalism on its property and, five months later, it’s officially under way. “We’ve completed pretty well all of Pickering,” said CN spokesman Frank Bind- er, who added CN footed the bill. CN property around Liverpool Road and Brock Road had been painted over, he said, and some more dangerous spots would be taken care of when it is safe. “I don’t consider this art; I consider it vandalism,” Mr. Binder said. Mr. Binder noted the vandalism was visi- ble to anyone traveling along Hwy. 401 and into Pickering, making the entrance into the community unsightly. Mayor Ryan said the program not only cleans up the spray-painted bridges and underpasses; it encourages the public to get involved in ensuring their community remains graffiti-free and safe. “This is not a one-time effort,” he said. “We have declared a full-time response to individuals who want to deface our com- munity.” CN hopes the program will also increase safety around the tracks where trains travel at very high speeds. “Trespassing on CN property is very ille- gal and dangerous,” Mr. Liepelt said. CN is calling upon the community to report trespassers to not only save the property, but maybe a life as well. “It’s important the public reports to us,” said Mr. Binder. If people witness trespassers or people vandalizing on the property, they should call CN police at 1-800-465-9239. They can also call 911. Mr. Binder said CN will paint over the graffiti in other communities on an as- needed basis.

A police source confirmed that George Kononow, 58, of Bayly Street, Pickering, was the man who collapsed and died while awaiting a court appearance last Friday. Mr. Kononow was facing numer- ous charges relating to the seizure of an estimated $2.46 million worth of hashish Sept. 9. Durham police said the man had been transferred from the Lindsay jail to the Oshawa courthouse and was being held in a secure area with other prison- ers when he suddenly collapsed Friday morning. The coroner is investigating the cause of death. Durham cops raided Mr. Kononow’s Bayly Street home Sept. 9 as part of an investigation into suspected trafficking of prescription pain killers. The officers found a large-scale hashish production, seizing about 120 kg of hash. Police said the seizure was the largest haul of hashish ever in Durham Region.

I am in agreement with this, however, I am not comfortable taking my dog to the Westney Road south dog park, as the park is not fenced and some of the dogs have run out of this park and onto Westney Road, which is extremely busy. Some of the young dogs also run out of the park to the trails behind it. If this park was fenced by the Town of Ajax, there would be no question about taking my dog there on a regular basis for a run. Lori Ackroyd Ajax PARKING Physical disabilities aren’t always apparent To the editor: As a young man growing up in Durham with Becker’s muscular dystrophy, there is just one thing I can’t seem to overcome, people’s ignorance when it comes to hand- icap parking spaces. I deal with it every day, you see I don’t use a wheelchair or cane, but I do have a physical disability. Sadly some people think since they don’t see any obvious signs of a disability, that I must be perfectly fine but they are wrong. I usually get dirty looks and rude comments whenever I park in these spaces and this happens simply because most people who see me believe that a person who looks like me would have no legitimate reason for parking in a handicap parking space. I truly believe some people need to be better educated concerning those of us with less recognizable disabilities. To me it is truly sad that some people in Durham Region have a stereotypical view of what a disability is and what it looks like. What people need to learn is that a dis- ability can affect anyone, no matter their age, even those who still have the ability to walk. Brad Miller Oshawa ELECTRICITY Smaller Veridian bill, shorter billing period To the editor: Have you noticed your Veridian bill late- ly? After opening my latest bill, I was sur- prised to see a decrease in the cost. It was only when I checked that I noticed Veridian has now changed its three-month billing cycle to a two-month cycle. When contacted, Veridian advised they did it only to help the people spread out the payments and it had nothing to do with hiding the huge increases we are all facing. If that was the case, why didn’t they do it years ago? It appears nothing more than an attempt to fool consumers. Nice try, Veridian, but it didn’t work. Mike Swaga Newcastle RELIGION University students deserve a place to pray To the editor: Re: ‘University doesn’t need to get into the religion business’, letter to the editor, Sept. 10, durhamregion.com. As a graduate of UOIT’s first class (2007), I was pleased to hear of UOIT’s expansion downtown, and of its successful growth into a reputable university. I also applaud the effort to create a wel- coming environment to people of all reli- gions and backgrounds. However, I was deeply troubled to hear of opposition to a prayer room. To suggest that all students should be able to find a place downtown to worship is simply ignorant. Most people realize that there are more than the three religions Mr. Johnston noted that are being practised in Canada, and anyone who has been to university knows that a dorm room is not a place where you will typically find peace and quiet, or pri- vacy. A prayer room simply isn’t built for the majority. It is built for the minority, who also deserve a quiet private place to pray. Jeff Miller Pinawa, Manitoba Durham Region election candidates are out pounding the pavement as they seek neighbourhood voter support in the run-up to the Oct. 25 municipal election. It would also do them well to set aside time to pound the computer keyboard if they hope to con- nect with a broader section of town and city voters. In our connected world with Facebook, Twitter, YouTube video uploading and other social media sites, candidates can take advantage of the opportunity to reach more registered voters in a fraction of the time -- and physical effort -- and share their campaign platforms. A growing number of municipal candidates around the region have included online components in their campaigns and most have reported encour- aging results based on the number of views of their videos, or responses to their Face- book postings. They have deduced, cor- rectly, that an online presence can markedly enhance the traditional door-knocking that accompanies campaigns and helps candi- dates build support. But it’s not all about the individuals court- ing voters. The Town of Ajax has recruited high profile local residents, such as mem- bers of pop-punk band Sum 41 and NHL alumnus Glenn Healey, to participate in an online video that encourages residents to get out and vote Oct. 25. It’s an effort to boost Ajax’s dismal 23 per cent voter turnout recorded in the 2006 municipal election. In the simplest terms, social media and the deep reach of the Internet into people’s homes have created instant -- and some- times lasting -- connections between the people seeking public office and those who will choose them. It is also an important tool to raise general awareness about the munic- ipal election as seen in the effort put togeth- er by the Town of Ajax. Looking ahead, social media will continue to evolve and new applications will be creat- ed to facilitate ever greater communication tools. In that context, candidates for public office, whether municipal, provincial or fed- eral, ignore the Internet and social media applications at their peril. Voters across Durham Region lead extremely busy lives. They’re raising chil- dren, paying mortgages, commuting to jobs and volunteering in their communities. The ability to communicate with one another via the Internet provides convenience and 24/7 accessibility. To that end, we encourage more candi- dates to reach far and wide via social media. It’s a great tool to explore and present ideas. It provides an opportunity for candidates to connect non-intrusively and share their ideas at a time convenient for the voter. It can be used to illustrate, explain and quan- tify. If seeking election is about communicat- ing, connecting and contemplating, social media provides the perfect set of tools. Durham election candidates ignore social media at their peril 7 P durhamregion.comNews Advertiser • September 22, 2010 We have been a one-income household for most of the 24 years of our married life. These days, I am told, that is quite a feat. I have artist and actor friends who marvel at it, in fact. They tell me I’ve done very well to be able to make that happen. In truth, I used to think that was the case. I figured I was a pretty good catch. Just the other day, in fact, my son called me ‘the breadwinner’. Mind you, it was dripping with the sincer- ity that only a sarcastic teenager can mus- ter, but still, he said it. There is always, however, another side to coins of this nature. It takes a very special kind of individual to live with someone of a creative bent. Many of us are not terribly detail-oriented individuals. We’re right- brained, big-picture people. We tend to spend a lot of time doing what I call ‘mood- ling’ or day-dreaming. It’s not wasted time, by any means, in fact it’s quite precious. Moodling is where ideas come from. It’s where most art comes from. More to the point, though, ‘moodling’ time is time that someone else has given us by taking on all of those other, non-creative, mundane, day-sucking activities, like putting out the recycling, driving the kids to band practice, weeding the garden and a million other pedestrian necessaries that make a house- hold work. My wife is that person. Her gift is made doubly precious by the fact that not only is hers an almost universally thankless posi- tion, but she is herself an artist. A pub- lished writer with a book in the works, she nonetheless puts the rest of us first, attend- ing to the other when she can. And, ‘swell’ that I am, I let her. Artistry, however, is not something that can just be shut off like a tap. It’s more like a river. You may try to stop it up or hold it at bay, but it must flow and will find its own route. Hers evidences itself in everything she does. From the beauty of the gardens outside our home to the warmth that flows from inside it, the mark of her creative hand is everywhere. Everywhere. And yet, because my creativity receives a semi-regular pay- cheque ... I am labeled and lauded as the artist. She, a ‘stay-at-home mom’ ... even worse, ‘Neil’s wife’. It’s a supremely unfair imbalance but one that I think is fairly pervasive. Look closely at most individuals enjoying a little limelight and you’ll no doubt see another someone, somewhere, patiently standing in the shadows ... doing the laundry. Plus, my creativity runs in a very narrow spectrum. I perform and I write. Beyond that, I’m afraid, I’m hopelessly middle- of-the-road. Whereas my wife’s resource- fulness seems never ending and tireless. Whatever she turns her hand to, she does so with infinite imagination and novelty. I see a lawn, she sees a garden. I see a wall that needs painting, she sees a mural. I see sex, she sees a night out with her girl- friends. I don’t think I’m far wrong in assum- ing most relationships have a bit of this in them. It’s the Yin and Yang of existence, I suppose. Still, it’s a humbling experience to real- ize that you’re not as wonderful as you may think you are. To come face to face with the fact that someone else has had a very large hand in your success. It’s even more cha- grining to realize you may not have said thank you enough, or at all. --Durham resident Neil Crone, actor-comic-writer, saves some of his best lines for his columns.

The majority of motorists are not tolerant with cyclists using this stretch of road. I am a cyclist, have been for over 60 years. I co-founded the Oshawa Cycling Club back in 1980. There are many of our members and other recreational cyclists using this stretch of road to escape the city on their way north to the beautiful country roads in our region. I have been shouted at, with “Get to ‘bleep’ off the ‘bleeping road’ and get on the ‘bleeping’ sidewalk,” and some have come so close to me to force me onto the curb. Since 1992 the provincial government rec- ognized the adult bicycle as a vehicle, and since that time, cyclists have to obey the rules of the road. We are subject to the same discipline as motorists, and will be fined accordingly. So I hope all motorists will be tolerant of us; we are very vulnerable on the roads, and how sad it would be, if some hot- head caused a fatality or injury to a recre- ational hometown cyclist. Ed Reilly Oshawa RYAN PFEIFFER/ BEHIND THE LENS An ambitiious attempt to set a record for the world’s largest guitar ensemble was organized at the GM Centre in Oshawa earli- er this year, but it became apparent early on that the attempt wouldn’t succeed. This photo of a fellow sit- ting by himself surrounded by empty seats, I thought, represented the story well. The image speaks for itself in the context of the failed attempt. It’s nice to find a picture that really illus- trates a story. Apparently, a picture really can be worth 1,000 words. Letters to the editor On Crone’s noisy neighbours: I can relate To the editor: Re: ‘Making noise about noisy neighbours’, Neil Crone column, Aug. 25. I loved Neil Crone’s column on noisy neighbours. We can relate. How would you like to be awakened by a neighbour cutting their grass at 7:30 a.m. just because it is con- venient for them? Or, how about the neigh- bour standing on the sidewalk two houses down that talks so loudly they broadcast to the entire neighbourhood that they are going to their cottage for the weekend? It sounded like a free-for-all at their house that weekend for robbers. We’ve had a fantastic summer but there is nothing more annoying than listen- ing to loud neighbours in their backyards for hours on end every day. They couldn’t whisper if their lives depended on it. What’s worse? I can hear them over my lawnmower complaining about the noise I’m making just before I hear their back door being slammed as they retreat inside their house. Loud people live in a bubble; they don’t realize that they don’t live alone.

OSHAWA -- Lawn signs and glossy bro- chures remain the campaign tools of choice for Oshawa’s municipal election candi- dates, but with more than 70 names on the ballot, some are hoping a little screen time will set their message apart. The new general vote scenario poses a huge challenge to newcomer candidates without the donations and manpower needed to connect with voters across the entire city. Most are already taking advantage of social media sites such as Facebook and Twitter -- they’re free and allow would-be politicians to get their photos and plat- forms out to thousands of people with a few clicks of a mouse. Video is also emerging as a must-have tool. “It’s so powerful and immediate,” says Oshawa mayoral candidate Louise Parkes. She has posted three videos to YouTube in the past week, the most controversial of which outlines her version of how the Cul- len Miniatures controversy unfolded. She says response has been good -- her YouTube channel has attracted nearly 500 total upload views in about a week. “We want to reach out to young voters who are much more comfortable with a multi-media environment. They may not pick up a static brochure that comes in the mail, but this is something they relate to,” she noted. Fellow mayoral candidate Bill Longworth has been a prolific videographer since long before he filed to run for council’s top job, creating dozens of YouTube videos about Oshawa politics. “I’ve done videos on so many topics from political speeches I’ve made at City Hall, to political satire to campaigning, to me sing- ing and playing guitar,” he says. “You can’t possibly meet all the voters. Video is the next closest thing to a face to face meet- ing. It lets people see your style, the deeper you.” The councillor candidates are also snag- ging some screen time. City councillor candidate Barry Dutton said he wants to be viewed as “someone who is forward thinking,” which is why he recently unveiled his first campaign prom- ise via YouTube video -- if elected he’s vow- ing to donate 10 per cent of his councillor salary to local charities. “People are used to watching TV so they’re conditioned to absorb information that way,” he said. Fellow city councillor candidate Jesse Cullen recruited friends and supporters to help with his campaign video, which fea- tures his P.A.T.H. to City Hall platform, an acronym for participation, accessibility, the three Rs and honesty. Shot from the ground up, it follows a growing crowd of feet walking a path, as each platform point is explained. Mr. Cullen was thrilled to see the clip garner 90 views within a few hours of being posted. “The more creative you get with a cam- paign, the more likey it is that people will actually get out there and vote,” he said. Oshawa regional councillor hopeful Amy England took her first screen appearance beyond YouTube, opting to appear on a TV makeover show that chronicled her jour- ney from a jeans and hoodie-wearing stu- dent, to a polished council candidate. The episode of Rags to Red Carpet featur- ing Ms. England appeared on CosmoTV in July. In it, she underwent a head-to- toe transformation that included her face, teeth, hair, makeup and wardrobe. “I have a lot of student debt and I was wor- ried about how I would compete against incumbents so I wanted to do something to make myself stand out,” she says. In addition to boosting her image and her self confidence, Ms. England said her appearance on the show has helped her reach a new demographic of voters. “I’ve received e-mails from people who never thought about voting and now they are after seeing the show, because it allowed them to see the real me,” she notes. Elsewhere in Durham, the Town of Ajax has turned to video to help encourage resi- dents to vote on Oct. 25. The Town recently launched a campaign called “Vote. It Matters,” aimed at beefing up the municipality’s dismal 23-per cent voter turnout in 2006. A upbeat video posted on the municipal- ity’s website is one of the highlights. It features local celebrities Canadian Idol judge Farley Flex, members of Sum 41, athletes Nigel Wilson, Glenn Healy and Keith Godding and broadcaster Ken Shaw encouraging residents to cast a ballot. OSHAWA -- Mayoral candidates are using the Internet to get their campaign mes- sages out to the online public. Above, Louise Parkes has a few YouTube videos explaining her take on some key issues she’s being asked to explain, including the Cullen Miniatures acquisition and her role in the Regent Theatre fiasco. Above right, The Town of Ajax has turned to video on its website to encourage residents to vote. It’s so powerful and immediate.

On Thursday, Sept. 30, the Durham Emergency Management Office, along with several government and community partners, is holding a nuclear emer- gency reception centre exercise. It’s being held at the Legends Centre, 1661 Harmo- ny Rd. N., Oshawa, starting at 10:30 a.m. During the exercise, emergency services and other vehicles will be coming and going from the centre. The reason for the exercise is to practise the opera- tion of a nuclear reception centre, as well as to pre- pare in the event of a nuclear emergency. Reception centres would be set up if there was a radiation release from a nuclear station. The centres would be set up to monitor and, if necessary, decon- taminate members of the public and their pets. In addition to Durham, other organizations taking part include the City of Oshawa, Ontario Power Gen- eration, Durham Regional Police, Durham Emergen- cy Medical Services, Durham Transit, the Canadian Red Cross, the Salvation Army, St. John Ambulance, the Durham school boards, the Peterborough, Victo- ria, Northumberland, Clarington Catholic Board, and the Ontario Volunteer Emergency Response Team (OVERT).

Forty-two Grade 6 students were involved, she said. Results in those 10 investigated classes test- ed under the Education Quality and Account- ability Office standard provincial exams have been withdrawn for the winter 2009-2010 round. But “it’s not going to change any outcomes for Grades 3, 6 or 9,” said Marie Parsons, EQAO chief assessment officer. “It’s an unfortunate incident. A piece of the puzzle is missing. But EQAO is only one piece of the picture of how well students are per- forming.” Ontario Street Public School in Bowmanville was also investigated after a Grade 3 teach- er who was administering the test noticed a section of the exam that students had not received instruction on, said Diane Lloyd, Chair of the Kawartha Pine Ridge District School Board. “I think it was just an error in judgment,” Ms. Lloyd said. “It shouldn’t have been done that way and it is regrettable.” There was no malice in the teacher’s actions, Ms. Lloyd said. About 500 students were involved in the investigations. The school-by-school test results released last week were for Grades 3 and 6 (reading, writing and math) and Grade 9 (math) during the last school year. More than half of the 10 incidents were reported by the schools themselves when “the principal realizes they’ve made an error or they’ve done what they shouldn’t have done,” said Ms. Parsons. Spokespeople at the Peel Region, Dufferin- Peel Catholic, York Catholic and York Region boards said Tuesday their districts were not investigated. In past years, teachers have been taken before the Ontario College of Teachers fol- lowing investigations into EQAO cheating. In each case, it was the school board that pressed the matter. About seven educators were involved in disciplinary hearings, said OCT spokesman Brian Jamieson. In the most serious, a group of teachers colluded in letting students finish incomplete answers before tests were sealed. -- with files from Melissa Mancini Louise Brown and Lesley Ciarula Taylor are reporters for the Toronto Star durhamregion.comNews Advertiser • September 22, 201014 AP P3507 Join us for a BBQ this Saturday September 25th and get fit by the Callaway Golf mobile unit!

The College’s board of governors has approved six diverse options slated to start in 2011: digital photography, digital video production, develop- mental services worker, emergency services fun- damentals, welding technician and chemical lab technician. The college has seen government reports that point to schools in the Greater Toronto Area potentially not being able to meet the demand for college spots in the coming years, said Judy Rob- inson, Durham College’s vice-president academ- ic. “This is a prime opportunity to meet post-sec- ondary need.” It’s just the start of new programs that are likely to be added to the col- lege’s roster. The board will see requests to add more programs for the Whitby campus relat- ed to subjects such as renewable energy and biofuels in coming months, she said. The college, which has about 7,300 full-time students enrolled this year, has a goal of 10,000 students by 2015. The next school year is slated to see the largest increase in students, according to the school’s strategic plan, Ms. Robinson said. When deciding what programs should be added, the school looks at student demand and labour market need. Staff analyzes what programs stu- dents in the region leave home to study at other colleges, then checks if those programs have wait- lists to determine demand, Ms. Robinson said. It also has focus groups with local employers to see what they are looking for and if they are will- ing to take on placement students, she said. Some of the programs were added because demand on a particular area of study is already high. Durham gets 2,600 applications for the five emergency-services related programs it already offers and there is only room to admit 450 stu- dents, said Stephanie Ball, dean of the school of justice and emergency services. “So all of our programs in this area are either wait-listed or closed,” she said. The new entry-level emergency services pro- gram can expose students who are unsure of which area they want to go into, to different career choices, or help students who didn’t make it into a specific program improve their skills for accep- tance the next year, Ms. Ball said. Other programs, including the new digital video and photography, respond to changing trends in the media industry, said Ms. Robinson. And one is back after a hiatus. The welding tech- nician certificate program is returning to the school after it was cancelled a few years back. “The program died five to eight years ago and we’re bringing it back again because of requests and need,” said Norm Fenton, dean of the school of applied sciences, apprenticeship, skilled trades and technology. Ms. Robinson said the labour market is now seeing an upswing in need for welders because of retirements, so the program is set to return. Now that the programs have been approved by the board, the college will seek funding approval from the Ministry of Training, Colleges and Universities to offer them.

REGISTER NOW FOR OCT. 28, 2010 START Automaker to add third shift, 600 jobs OSHAWA -- The Chevrolet Equinox is roll- ing off the lines at General Motors’ Oshawa plant. Demand for the vehicle has skyrocketed, so the automaker has decided to ramp up production, spokes- man Jason Easton says. “It’s one of our hot- test selling vehicles. Sales have increased 140 per cent in the U.S. and increased 40 per cent in Canada. We want to bring more vehicles to the market as fast as possible,” Mr. Easton states. Following a test run of 200 vehicles being assembled, full pro- duction began on Mon- day, he says. GM is using a different approach to mak- ing the Equinox. Excess capacity at the company’s CAMI body shop in Ingersoll is used to produce the vehicle body, which is then shipped to the Oshawa site for paint- ing and final assembly. The Equinox is also assembled on the Consolidated Line, which is used to pro- duce the Chevrolet Impala. “The incredible efforts of the teams at CAMI and Oshawa will better enable us to meet soaring customer demand for the Chev- rolet Equinox and GMC Terrain,” Kevin Williams, GM of Canada president and managing director, says in a press release. Mr. Easton says a third shift will be added to the line in Oshawa, but the date hasn’t been selected yet. “We’ll have a future announce- ment.” There will be 600 jobs added when the third shift starts up, Mr. Easton adds.

COMMUNITY Pickering church seeks items for bazaar durhamregion.comNews Advertiser • September 22, 201020 AP Wingfest in Oshawa on Sept. 23 JILLIAN FOLLERT jfollert@durhamregion.com OSHAWA -- The recent recession has had a two- fold impact on the local United Way. It has increased the number of people relying on shelters, food banks and other social service agen- cies the umbrella agency funds, while simultane- ously making it more difficult for people to open their wallets for financial donations. “So many people are unemployed or under- employed right now,” said Bob Howard, who oversees the United Way’s annual fundrais- ing effort. “Giving to charity is a discretionary expense. If all your money is now going to shelter and food and transportation, it’s hard to donate.” Despite those challenges, Mr. Howard is opti- mistic this year’s fundraising campaign will be a success. Last year about $2.2 million was raised in the thick of the recession. This year’s goal is to secure $250,000 in new money for what will be a region-wide fundraising effort as the two existing United Way branches in the area prepare to come together as the Durham Region United Way. The fundraising campaign kicks off on a tasty note on Sept. 23 when the 17th annual Wingfest takes over LVIV Hall in Oshawa. Hundreds of campaign volunteers and support- ers are expected to chow down on thousands of wings of every imaginable flavour and spice quo- tient. An estimated 25,000 wings were served at Wing- fest 2009. This year’s participating restaurants include Whiskey John’s, Tap and Tankard, Los Cabos, the Courtyard and On the Rocks. There will also be live entertainment by the Lin- colnaires and Silver Elvis, a silent auction and cash bar. Mr. Howard stressed people don’t need to donate a lot to the fundraising campaign -- every little bit helps. “We need everyone possible who has the capaci- ty to help, to step up,” he said. “We want to encour- age the notion that you are your brother’s keeper. You are somebody else’s somebody else.” The local United Way is an umbrella organiza- tion that provides funding to dozens of local social service and non-profit agencies, everything from Simcoe Hall Settlement House to Eastview Boys’ and Girls’ Club. The overriding mandate is to help people become self reliant -- whether by feeding, cloth- ing and sheltering them or providing support such as counselling and children’s programs. Wingfest starts at 6 p.m. on Sept. 23 at LVIV Hall, 38 Lviv Blvd. in Oshawa. Tickets are $20 for adults and $5 for children 12 and under, which includes wings. For tickets, call 905-436-7377 or drop by the information kiosk at the Oshawa Centre or the United Way office at 345 Simcoe St. S. in Oshawa.

After beating the St. Michael’s Buzzers 7-5 on home ice last Thursday, the Panthers were blanked the following night 3- 0 in Trenton, and then fell 5-3 in the return game between the teams Sunday in Pickering. The weekend leaves the Pan- thers with just one win in six outings, falling to the bottom of the East Division of the Ontario Junior Hockey League. “Getting that first win we thought going into the weekend that we could carry the momen- tum,” said head coach John Goodwin. “We played really well against St. Mike’s and any- time you score six or seven goals against a team like that you are doing a lot of things right.” A lot of those same things eluded them against Trenton. The Golden Hawks scored on the power play in the second period and added two more in the third, those two coming within 2:55 of each other, in Fri- day’s win. On Sunday, the Gold- en Hawks came into Pickering and opened up a 3-0 lead in the opening period and maintained that advantage in a 5-3 victory. It was that opening period that Goodwin pointed to as the dif- ference in the game. “In the first period we kind of watched and they are a big, physical, older team that took it to us in the first period,” he said. “It was probably the worst peri- od of hockey we played all year.” The Panthers battled to the end, eventually trailing 3-2 after two periods and 4-3 with 5:11 to go in the third. In that period, the Panthers outshot Trenton 13-5, but were outscored 2-1. Tyler von Engelbrechten scored his team leading sixth goal of the season on Sunday, with Brett Gustavsen on the power play and Jonny Simone adding the others. There are a lot of areas the Panthers need to clean up and get more production from to turn things around, from the goaltending on out. “If you asked (goaltender) Adam (Stein), I think he expects more out of himself,” said Good- win when asked. “He’s a third year goalie. He was upset with some of the goals against St. Mike’s. In Whitby (earlier this season) there was a couple he thought he should have had. “He’s played five of the first six. We expect him as a 19 year old to take the ball and run with it. He had a great pre-season. Maybe he’s just putting too much pres- sure on himself to try and be the guy in there. “We have to get better in that area, but we’ve got to get better in a lot of areas.” The next chance to get better comes Friday when they play Upper Canada, then face Wel- lington on Sunday at 8 p.m. at the Ajax Community Centre.

While he admits to mishandling the situ- ation last week that saw him sign on with the Toronto Argonauts after reneging on a verbal agreement to return to the Canadi- an Football League with the B.C. Lions, the six-foot-two defensive lineman from Cour- tice wants to look ahead to what he sees as a great opportunity to excel with the double blue. But before looking ahead, Foley was stead- fast in wanting to make one thing clear. He appreciates the Lions organization, despite what his detractors, including former team- mates such as Angus Reid and Dante Marsh, think. “During the whole process, it was obvi- ously very trying on me and my whole fam- ily and my friends out there in B.C.,” he said. “I guess now the feeling is that I am grateful that (coach/GM) Wally (Buono) and coach (Mike) Benevides and my friends out there took it as understandingly as they could. “The were real gracious with me in under- standing what I was going through,” Foley added. “In the end, I know I made the right decision.” While he didn’t get starters’ minutes in his first game with the Argonauts on Sunday, a not-so-pretty 17-13 win over the Winnipeg Blue Bombers, Foley, who managed three tackles and a quarterback sack, is confi- dent he’ll get the chance down the stretch to show Toronto he is the same player who earned the CFL’s Top Canadian Award in 2009 after tying for the league lead in sacks. That belief was one of the elements that led to his signing with the Argonauts. “There will be certain techniques and stuff that they will want me to learn here and I am obviously going to do that, but for the most part I just wanted to make sure I was going to be as comfortable as possible and start off right where I left off in B.C.,” Foley noted of what he was looking for during his brief tour of free agency. “I worked really hard to get where I was and I didn’t want to take a step backwards coming to a new team and a new system with different expectations and for me to play a different way than I have learned to, you know? So once they made it clear they were going to let me play the way I play and there would just be a few nuances of the defence that I would have to learn, I felt really comfortable and ready to go.” And he’s ready go knowing that he gave what he could in his attempt to turn his recent success into an NFL job. Though he lost most of this CFL season trying to make it south of the border, it was a chance, Foley said, he absolutely needed to take. “I had to take that shot though. I was something I didn’t want to regret when I got older,” said the 28 year old, who was cut by both the Seattle Seahawks and New York Jets within the span of a week prior to the start of the NFL season. “You know, now I am sitting here and I am content with where I am. I took that shot and now I have erased all those questions in my mind. I am here and ready now to be the best player I can in this league, develop and reach my potential. The sky is the limit.” The Argonauts will certainly hope that is the case. DAN GIRAUD / TORSTAR NEWS SERVICE TORONTO -- Ricky Foley (right) chatted with defensive back Byron Parker, during a break in practice. durhamregion.com Clarington’s Jennifer McKeen tops in Calgary CALGARY -- Jennifer McKeen, a 17-year-old member of the Oshawa Pony Club, has won the national show jumping champi- onships at the Cochrane Agricul- tural Society near Calgary. The Clarington resident is in her first year of police foundations studies at Sir Sandford Fleming College. This was a true national com- petition, with entries from coast to coast, and regions limited to one entry each. All competitors rode borrowed horses, selected the day before the actual compe- tition. McKeen drew a 17-year-old Dutch warmblood called Char- lie, described by the McKeens as “easy-going, loving and well-tem- pered”. The championships used a flat class, a gymnastics course and a jumper equitation (medal) class on Day 1 and the morning of Day 2. Riders were marked not only on how their mounts jumped, but also on their equitation (rid- ing technique), and even on their tack and turn-out. McKeen won the flat class and placed second in the other two phases for the overall win. As part of the weekend, the young competitors visited Spruce Meadows to watch the Masters (jumps somewhat higher than those they had to deal with), and also to take in the Evening of the Horse plus a fireworks display. They also enjoyed a banquet with Olympian Sandra Donnelly as guest speaker. Oshawa club rider wins national show jumping title EQUESTRIAN PHOTO BY PETER COOMBES CALGARY -- Jennifer McKeen, a Clarington resident and member of the Oshawa Pony Club, won the national show jumping champi- onships in Alberta. RACING Pickford, Stevenson, Rossiter crowned class champions in stock car BOWMANVILLE -- A long night of stock car racing action brought the curtain down on the 2010 Mosport Speedway schedule earlier this month. Fan Appreciation Night saw the crowning of three deserv- ing class champions and the thrilling spectacle of an open- wheeled Modified Invitational. The THORSONS EVT Six Or Less Kevin Pickford has long laughed at his #19 Priest- ly Demolition Buick Skyhawk “bucket of bolts”, but that little red-and-white speedster had the last laugh as Pickford closed out the season in winning style, taking the 20-lap feature sprint and along with it, the 2010 Six Or Less class championship. Over the course of the sched- ule, Pickford rolled up eight race wins, including three fea- tures, to outrun his young chal- lenger, Duane Jeffery (#26 Car- Du Camaro) to the title with an advantage of 16 points in the final scoring. “We just kept plugging away, changing small stuff on the car,” explained Pickford. “But at the end of the year, this little bucket of bolts really came alive.” Jeffery also enjoyed a remark- able year, matching Pickford’s record with three feature wins, to go with his 13 heat race victo- ries, but on multiple occasions the Oshawa driver found him- self collected in other people’s incidents. Leapfrogging into third place overall on the final night of competition was Nick Mulders. The Bob’s Towing Sportsman Brad Stevenson claimed an impressive 18 race victories this year, his total divided between seven feature wins and 11 heats conquests. In comparison, John Baker Jr. managed to snare only four checkered flags. However, due to a missed weekend, Ste- venson’s tally suffered and the two rivals entered the last night of racing tied atop the points leaderboard. With the championship on the line, both drivers brought their ‘A’ game, Stevenson in his #77 Sanfords Racing Engines Monte Carlo drawing first blood, and edging out Baker for the victory in the evening’s sole heat dash. In the Sportsman class finale, a green/white/checkered finish heightened the intensity, but at the line, it was again Stevenson, the 2007 Mosport ThunderCar champion, claiming the win, and the title, over Baker. “My hat is off to John,” said Stevenson. “He raced me hard, but he raced me clean. My brakes were getting pretty soft at the end and I had to pump them up every lap. With a soft pedal, I didn’t need to see that yellow at the end and Baker that close to my back bumper.” The R.P. Oil Ltd. Late Models Heading into the final night of action, only John Baker Jr. had any chance of catching Jim Ros- siter for the 2010 Late Model championship, but Rossiter was determined that he was not about to back into the title. Opening the night with a heat win over Todd Delisle, Rossiter found himself starting the first of two 25 lap feature races from mid-pack. Cautiously working towards the front, he wrestled second place away from Scott Harrison on the last lap but had no time remaining to close on the eventual race winner, Dwight Brown. Round Two on the night played out in similar fashion, with the Rossiter taking his #66 Roy Nichols Motors Impala to another runner-up result, again behind Brown, but the finishing positions were enough to secure Rossiter his first Late Model tro- phy. “We’re really proud of our efforts this year,” said Rossiter. “We built a new car and con- tinually worked on it to make it better. We’ll come back next year even stronger.” The Open-Wheeled Modi- fieds Bolstered with an impres- sive line-up of visiting drivers from both Delaware and Varney Speedways, the open-wheeled Modifieds closed out their 2010 Mosport season with a 25-lap feature dash. As talented and well prepared as they might have been, the visitors were no match for five- time Mosport champion Dwight Brown. Starting from the middle of the 15-car field, Brown piloted his familiar #2 Bourque Transmis- sion towards the front, eventu- ally dispatching his new father- in-law, Bill Pickford (#61), for the lead on lap 12 following a caution period restart. “I love this car, it’s like put- ting on a favourite pair of jeans,” laughed Brown. “I hope the fans enjoyed this race. It was great to have the chance to race against the guys from those other tracks. They made me work for this one.” Mosport closes out another year on the oval PHOTO BY PETER BRAND CLARINGTON -- From left, Jim Rossiter (Late Model), Brad Stevenson (Sportsman) and Kevin Pickford (6 or Less) posed togeth- er after winning their respective classes at Mosport this year.News Advertiser • September 22, 201027 AP durhamregion.comNews Advertiser • September 22, 201028 AP The City of Oshawa has openings for the following position: Skilled Labourer Please visit www.oshawa.ca under the Employment Resources link for more detailed information on the position and to apply online.

The Whitby native made seven saves on Sunday as he recorded the first shutout in UOIT men’s soccer history as the Ridgebacks played to a 0-0 draw with the Windsor Lancers. Thompson was instrumental in keeping the game scoreless in the early stages, making five first-half stops. It was a little quieter at the other end for Windsor goalkeeper Dan Mendonca, who faced four shots from the Ridgebacks offence before being subbed out with an injury inside the final 10 minutes of the game. Sunday’s tie marks the second draw of the year between the two clubs as they played to a 1-1 final last week. UOIT is now 1-4-2 on the year. Earlier in the weekend, the Ridgebacks made their home debut at Vaso’s Field, but proved to be no match for the Western Mustangs in a 5-0 loss. It was one man doing all the damage for the Mustangs as strik- er Nikos Mavrikos converted for all five goals for the visitors, one in the first half and four more in the second. Despite Mavrikos’ miraculous performance, the UOIT celebra- tion was not spoiled as fans piled into Vaso’s Field to take part in historical event that was held in conjunction with CBC’s Sports Day in Canada. A special pre- game ceremony took place prior to kickoff, celebrating the arriv- al of OUA soccer to the Durham Region. “It was great to be a part of such a historical event,” said Picker- ing’s Justin Gordon, freshman UOIT forward. “It will be nice to look back on this in 20 years knowing that I was part of some- thing as special as this.” The Ridgebacks will continue their home stand on Friday as they take on the Waterloo War- riors at 6 p.m. PHOTO BY PETER REDMAN OSHAWA -- Western Mustangs Eric Amato and UOIT Ridgebacks Ali Asgary battled for the ball Saturday during first-half action at the first OUA home game for the Ridgebacks at Vaso’s Field.
