Home My WebLink AboutNA2011_01_27 KRISTEN CALIS kcalis@durhamregion.com PICKERING -- Pickering council agrees with an Ajax man that moving air ambulance head- quarters to Hamilton could put Durham lives in jeopardy. Bob Gleeson was a patient of Ornge, a pro- vincial resource that provides sophisticated medical transport for very ill and critically injured patients both in the air and on ground, when he was transported for open heart sur- gery nine years ago. He credits the service with saving his life. “There is no doubt in my mind that if Ornge hadn’t been there to transport me down, then Lord knows what would have happened because I was in dire straits,” Mr. Gleeson said in an interview. According to a press release, since taking over the provincial transport medicine pro- gram in 2006, Ornge has been seeking ways to modernize and improve service. After a num- ber of studies on everything from response times to location possibilities, Ornge settled on Hamilton International Airport for a new Transport Medicine Centre of Excellence. It's expected to open this fall.

(905) 495-9598 Program helps youths get companies off the ground DURHAM -- Students can guaranteed themselves a job this summer by taking advantage of up to $3,000 in funding to create their own business. Summer Company, a program sponsored by the Ontario government, offers students ages 15 to 29 who are returning to school this fall up to $3,000 to start their own business. The program, coordinat- ed in Durham Region by the Business Advisory Cen- tre Durham, helps eligible students get their business ideas off the ground with help preparing a business plan, business training, one-on-one mentoring, and advisory services from Durham’s business com- munity, in addition to the $3,000 award. “With the way the pro- gram is designed and the extensive support it pro- vides, it’s hard to fail,” said Wenda Abel, the centre’s young entrepreneur pro- gram manager. Students just have to par- ticipate fully in the activi- ties, try their best and put at least 35 hours per week into operating their busi- ness. “Window washing, house painting, jewelry and accessory making, lawn and garden care, sewing and music lessons, grow- ing vegetables and selling them -- if it’s something you can do and people want and need, you can make it into your own busi- ness,” Ms. Abel said. Summer Company is now taking applications for summer 2011 and space is limited.

Wenda Abel, Business Advisory Centre Durham CRIME Gun seized during traffic stop AJAX -- Two men are facing charges after cops found a sawed-off rifle during a rou- tine traffic stop Monday night in Ajax. An officer spotted the gun, a sawed-off .22 cali- bre rifle, on the floor behind the driver’s seat of a car while investigating a traffic infrac- tion on Chapman Drive at Kingston Road at 10:35 p.m., Durham police said. Timothy Brown-Campbell, 18, of Murphy Lane, Ajax, and 20-year-old David Pat- rick, of Dundas Street West, Whitby, face weapons charg- es. Mr. Brown-Campbell also faces a charge of possessing a firearm contrary to a court order. Meets with minister, hopes for sitdown with premier KEITH GILLIGAN kgilligan@durhamregion.com DURHAM -- The Region is continuing the fight to have the provincial gov- ernment change its plan to end Hwy. 407 at Simcoe Street in Oshawa. Regional Chairman Roger Anderson met with Infrastructure Minister Bob Chiarelli on Thurs- day, making the case for building the high- way across Durham, from Brock Road in Pickering to Hwy. 35/115 in Claring- ton. “I think we had a good meeting. He certain- ly understands our con- cern, how important the 407 is to us and our posi- tion on it,” Mr. Anderson says. “Anytime you get the opportunity to sit down with a minister is a good thing.” In June, the Province announced it would only be building the 407 to Simcoe Street and not right across the region, as previously announced. At a meeting hosted by Oshawa Mayor John Henry in late November, Transportation Minis- ter Kathleen Wynne said the government wants to build the highway across the region, but doesn’t have the money because of the recession. “We didn’t plan for an economic downturn. We didn’t know it was coming. We’ve been coping with the implications of it,” Ms. Wynne said. “It’s not our government’s preferred position, saying we’ve got to build it in stages. We’d like to expedite this.” The government still plans to build the highway across Durham, but hasn’t given a time frame, she stated. One of Durham’s con- cerns with the 407 ending at Simcoe is the cost for both the Region and City of Oshawa to maintain streets and roads in the area. Durham would have to spend about $255 mil- lion to improve and main- tain the road network, while Oshawa would have spend about $75 million. “The fact is the road pro- gram for Durham can’t absorb the cost of stop- ping the 407 at Simcoe. It would literally devastate our road program,” Mr. Anderson says. Ending at Simcoe would also affect “the jobs lost of the 407 not being built as promised. As a former regional chairman, he understood that.” Getting Durham’s con- cerns to the cabinet table will ensure the Region’s position is understood, Mr. Anderson says. “The more cabinet min- isters know, the better. Between meeting with him, with Minister Wynne and the premier some day, hopefully we can come to a satisfactory conclusion on the 407,” Mr. Anderson notes. “It’s an important piece of infrastructure for Durham.” Mr. Chiarelli “made no commitment. We agreed to talk again in the future. As long as discussion is open, it’s a good thing,” he adds. “He understands it’s a political decision what they do now. “I sent a letter earlier this week, asking for a meet- ing with the premier. We haven’t heard back. All we can do is ask. Hopefully he would find the time in his schedule to accommodate us. We would find the time to accommodate him,” Mr. Anderson says. durhamregion.comNews Advertiser • January 27, 20114 AP Ask Katherine Send your waste related letters, questions, or comments to waste@durham.ca Waste Management, Regional Municipality of Durham 605 Rossland Rd. E., Whitby ON L1N 6A3 I have a few old cell phones lying around the house, are these okay to dispose of in the garbage since they are small? No, it is estimated that 15 million cell phones are discarded each year in Canada. Unfortunately, some of those end up in landÄ ll because their owners aren’t aware that these electronics contain metals and other materials that can be hazardous to the environment if not disposed of properly. You should always recycle, donate or trade in your old cells phones. Visit www. recycleyourelectronics.ca for a list of local retailers that accept cell phones for recycling or bring your old cell phone to any of the Region’s waste management facilities for recycling. Did you know? Inside almost all cell phones is an element called tantalum, which is used to hold high electrical charges. Tantalum is derived from the ore coltan. Coltan is found primarily in the rainforests of the Democratic Republic of the Congo. Unfortunately, the endangered lowland gorilla also calls this area home. As cell phone use increases, so does un-regulated mining in the Congo, which destroys gorilla habitat. By recycling your old phone, tantalum can be re-used, lessening the demand to mine coltan thereby protecting gorillas. For more information, visit www.phoneapes.com. Should I be concerned about privacy and security information left on old computers that I bring in for recycling? You should always protect your privacy and identity. The Region of Durham is an approved collector under the Ontario Electronics Stewardship (OES) program. When you recycle your electronics, they will not be reused. While Durham and OES will make every effort to ensure the privacy and security of personal information, Durham and OES cannot accept liability for any data that remains on electronic equipment. Take the appropriate precautions, be sure to back up your data and wipe clean all data from computers and laptops, SIM cards and other storage devices in cell phones, digital cameras or picture frames. If you are unsure how to clear data, check your owner’s manual or contact the product manufacturer. Then bring your old computers to one of the Region’s e-waste recycling events or waste management facilities. I separate wood, metals, batteries and other household wastes and take these to the waste management facility where I’m charged for disposal. These materials could easily be thrown in my garbage, and not recycled and I wouldn’t pay anything. Why should I pay? Aside from the fact that diverting waste from landÄ ll is a major beneÄ t to the environment regardless of cost, some material is just not practical for curbside collection. This is why we rely on waste management facilities for additional recycling opportunities. Waste management facilities are set up to be funded primarily through user fees. It is intended that the fees will cover the costs of operating the waste management facility. These costs include hauling and disposal fees, maintenance, small capital improvements and staff salaries. Although some recyclable material does generate revenue to help offset costs, the majority has Å uctuating values or is an added expense. Loads containing only household hazardous waste, electronics, tires or balewrap are accepted at no cost as we receive money from industry to help fund these programs. By bringing these special loads to the waste management facility you have the satisfaction of knowing the items will be disposed of appropriately. 1-800-667-5671 www.durhamregionwaste.ca905.683.2222 www.sureÀ toutlet.ca Watch for our Á yer!

GREAT SAVINGS ... up to 60% Off - Call for Details COMMUTING Gridlock must be addressed by Province To the editor: The population of Durham Region and the Town of Ajax have increased quite a bit over the last few years but the prob- lem of the bottleneck of the eastbound 401 express and collector lanes at Brock Road has gone unresolved. It’s time we get the ball rolling and deliv- er this issue with the highest of priority to the provincial government. We need to resolve this issue and fig- ure out a way to reduce daily traffic at this junction of the 401. Nabeel Shah Ajax POLITICS No wonder the Conservatives are using attack ads To the editor: With a possible election in the air, Whit- by-Oshawa MP Jim Flaherty and the fed- eral Conservatives once again decided to recycle the same old American-style attack ads. With five years at the helm of this coun- try, you think the Conservatives would run on their record: the billion-dollar photo shoot of the G8 and G20 meetings; the untendered military contracts; record- setting Canadian deficit; the inability to act on the recession until forced to do so; Jim Flaherty calling for a surplus in the last election, even as the economy was in a freefall; reducing Canada’s surplus when they came to power to near deficit before the recession; tax cuts for businesses even as CEOs make record salaries and bonus- es during recession; Canada’s decline on the world stage; inaction on environment issues; the fiasco with allies in the Middle East; the continuous scandals with their ministers and departments. With the Conservative record as such over the past five years, I can see why Jim Flaherty endorses American-style attack ads. Brent Roberts Whitby CONTROVERSY Plenty of layers to this bus saga To the editor: Re: ‘Incident involving Oshawa boy at bus stop ‘never happened’: Durham Transit’, news, durhamregion.com, Jan. 20, 2011. Like every debate in life, there are prob- ably three sides to this story and the truth may be in the middle ground. I really didn’t see the need for the full- page article for the initial complaint. Who’s responsibility was it for having no pass to start with? Certainly not the bus driver. So, the issue has been highlighted and I’m sure policy adjusted if needed. What does this single mother expect from the Region that she wants to hire a lawyer? Taking on city hall with a $300-an-hour lawyer is suicide unless you really have a case with merit. Maybe she could get a place near the school next time; she won’t have bus issues and will save $220 a month in pass fees. Kevin Clark Whitby SOCIETY Work together to address child poverty To the editor: One of the most prevalent and wide- spread global issues in the world today is that of child poverty; it affects one billion children worldwide and is alive and well in everyone’s community. Over the past few years, the issue has strongly affected Canada and the rest of the Western world, tainting the “untouchable” reputation that North America possesses. If the West is suffering, then where does the rest of the world stand? By addressing the issues that cause child poverty around the world, humanity as a whole can work to stop this tragedy that affects so many young lives directly and indirectly. There are innumerable organizations that raise awareness about the issue of child poverty, and if newspapers and other forms of the media promoted these groups, there would be a greater chance of their objectives being reached faster and with greater success.

All content copyright WE THINK... email responses to newsroom@durhamregion.com Editorial Opinions durhamregion.comNews Advertiser • January 27, 20116 AP A refreshing reminder in Durham about today’s youth A group of Durham Region seniors have some quick-thinking young men to thank today after fate brought the two groups together on a snowy road last weekend. The women, all from Scugog, were trapped upside down in their car follow- ing an earlier accident on a slick stretch of Reach Road and were quickly rescued by the young men, on their way home to York Region following a hockey game in Port Perry. The five men, all 19, took charge of the scene after watching the car carrying the seniors flip over in a ditch -- they had ear- lier been involved in a collision with a deer and were awaiting the arrival of police -- and dug furiously in the snow to rescue the trapped victims. Their efforts provide a refreshing reminder that today’s youth, who are so routinely criticized for being shiftless and cynical, are instead thoughtful, compas- sionate and selfless when confronted with an unexpected challenge. They should receive the police commendation they are being considered for. This group of young men and their hero- ic response to the emergency provides an important and timely counterweight to another recent emergency situation in which two men reportedly ignored the pleas of a boy dangling precariously from a local ski hill lift before he fell 10 metres to the ground, injuring himself and requir- ing a hospital stay. Indeed, the inaction and blithe disregard exhibited by those men for the young boy on the ski hill earlier this month give lie to the perception of today’s youth. Residents in communities across Dur- ham will freely share their experienc- es with local teens: driveways shovelled without request; disabled cars boosted without a word or a demand; heavy items carried from vehicle to home; homework help for little ones struggling with numer- acy or literacy. We can all acknowledge the efforts of these young men -- and the countless oth- ers who answer the call whenever it comes -- and take comfort in the fact that the vast majority of today’s youth are indeed active and self-aware and concerned about their world and the people in it. One can only imagine the terror those seniors felt as the car they were travelling in slid and rolled over into that rural ditch last Saturday. It’s much easier to conjure their sense of relief when the first fresh young face appeared outside the window of the upturned car indicating that help was on the way, that everything would be all right.

While our help to others is rooted in the spirit of Christmas, it exists all year though because of your support. Because of you, we are able to respond when our neighbours need help. Through the kindness of the entire community, you gave $265, 511.27, approximately 20% higher than last year to meet rising need. This wonderful result is more signiÀ cant, and a clear testament to the warm heartedness of the people of Pickering and Ajax, since it represents one of the highest results of local Salvation Army Kettle campaigns across Canada. The people of Ajax & Pickering care. With deep gratitude we recognize the total community effort which provided such a result. We are blessed to witness the overwhelming way in which each aspect of our community; schools, daycares, local businesses, community service organizations, churches and residents alike reached into their hearts to help others. We thank those many people, of all ages, who donated toys to CTV’s Toy Mountain at the Pickering Town Centre. The faculty, staff and students of Dunbarton High School and Ajax High School and the leaders and members of Amberlea Presbyterian Church and Forest Brook Community Church deserve special recognition for their signiÀ cant participation. We particularly thank the local merchants listed below for their tremendous partnership and assistance by hosting Kettles in their stores throughout the 2010 campaign. We simply could not achieve such results without them: The people of Pickering and Ajax have demonstrated yet again, that they reÁ ect as well as any community in Canada, the high ideals of kindness and compassion. We are most grateful to you, are honoured and humbled by your support and express thanks to one and all for your exceptional kindness during our 2010 Kettle Campaign which enables us to help those in need throughout 2011. The Salvation Army is an international Christian organization that began its work in Canada in 1882 and gives hope and support to vulnerable people today and everyday in 400 communities across Canada and in more than120 countries around the world. We have been serving locally in Pickering and Ajax since 1955, and presently The Salvation Army Hope Community Church carries out the compassionate work for which The Salvation Army is known.

Vehicle assembly produc- tion jumped 39 per cent to 2,068,227 cars and trucks in 2010 from 2009 here, according to Ward’s Auto- motive Reports. In 2009, production slid 28.5 per cent from 2008 because vehicle demand crashed in the U.S., where automakers in Canada ship most of their output. Most industry watchers expect production will con- tinue to climb this year at almost every automaker as the U.S. recovery gathers momentum, triggering auto demand. However, there are some concerns whether sales demand will increase sig- nificantly in Canada after it sputtered in December, even with major incentives. Despite the improvement in 2010, total production remains almost one million vehicles below the industry peak of 3,056,616 in 1999. Since then, the Detroit- based automakers -- Gener- al Motors, Chrysler and Ford -- have announced plant closures. Ford is closing an assem- bly plant this year in St. Thomas, Ont., but the other companies have indicated they plan more production. Although GM Canada experienced a wrenching restructuring, it remains the country’s biggest auto pro- ducer. Production at plants in Oshawa and Ingersoll shot up 52 per cent to 529,568 vehicles last year from 2009, statistics from Ward’s shows. Chrysler Canada moved up from third place into sec- ond spot as production in Windsor and Brampton rose 51 per cent to 475,382. Toyota slipped to third place, although output in Cambridge and Wood- stock climbed 43 per cent to 458,729 vehicles. Produc- tion at Ford Motor of Cana- da increased 34 per cent to 320,608 vehicles in Oakville and St. Thomas. Honda Canada’s output improved 7 per cent to 278,316 autos in Alliston. -- Tony Van Alphen is an automotive writer for the Toronto Star durhamregion.comNews Advertiser • January 27, 20118 AP More timely food inspection results for local restaurants to be posted DURHAM -- An improved website for Dine- Safe Durham will provide more timely inspection results for eateries in the Region. It’s the final phase of the DineSafe food safety inspection disclosure program, which began in March 2009. The website provides greater access to information about food inspections, says Ken Gorman, the director of environmental health with the Region’s health department. “Inspection information on the website will be updated on a daily basis and results will be as close to real time as possible. Infor- mation available will likely be as current as two working days,” Mr. Gorman says. A pilot period started last August, with inspection information posted on the Region’s website. “Through the pilot of this website, we received input from the community and owner/operators of food premises that has resulted in several improvements to this resource,” Mr. Gorman says. DineSafe includes the posting of green, yellow or red summary inspection signs at the entrance to food establishments. The new website can be found at www. durham.ca. For more information about the DineSafe program or the health department’s ongo- ing food safety program, visit www.durham. ca or call the Environmental Help Line at 905-723-3818 or 1-888-777-9613, ext. 2188. durhamregion.comNews Advertiser • January 27, 20119 AP THURSDAY, JANUARY 27, 2011 Ajax & Pickering Locations Flyers in Today’s Paper Carriers of The Week * Delivered to selected households only If you did not receive your News Advertiser/fl yers OR you are interested in a paper route call Circulation at 905-683-5117.

While Durham cannot move up in the standings, they still can help determine how the top teams finish. The AAs battled the snow last Satur- day as they travelled to Cobourg to face the second-place West Northumberland Wild. The Wild are in a fight for first place so the two points up for grabs were signif- icant as Durham could possibly face the Wild in the first round of playoffs. The AAs make a loud statement with a resounding 3-0 win. Dreu Davidson, Ellie Minchopou- los and Sarah Joseph all found the range as Durham counted three goals in the first period. Assists to Nicole Staneland and Dreu Davidson. At the other end, Kimber- ley Keller stopped all 36 shots fired at her to record the shutout. The next day, the Lightning travelled to third-place Clarington. Aside from needing two points, the Flames were also still stinging from being eliminated from the provincials by Durham. Special teams were to be the order of the day. Sydney O’Neill, from Acey Maves and Nicole Sta- neland, staked Durham to a first-period lead on a power-play goal. Clarington answered back with two power-play goals in the second period, one goal being on a five-on-three man advantage. Time was running out in the game when Ellie Min- chopoulos, from Catherine Ho and Lind- say Smith, knotted the score at 2-2 on another power-play goal. The Lightning have now only one loss in their last seven games. FIGURE SKATING Ajax skaters shine at Winter Glitters AJAX -- The Ajax Skating Club, along with Skate Canada Central Ontario, co- hosted the Winter Glitters figure skating competition. Some of the best figure skaters from Central Ontario competed in various indi- vidual and group events. A number of local skaters received medals. The following Ajax Skating Club skaters won medals: In the freeskate category Caitlin Klotz, Rebecca Klotz and Jacquelyn Van Rooy won gold medals; Heather Docherty and Taylor Cleland won silver medals; Kara Dalton, Emma Burns and Sydney VanSickle took home bronze medals; Samantha and Michelle took home a gold medal in group/family show- case and Joren Romaniuk won a silver in solo dance. OFFICIATING Whistle while at work Pickering’s Dave Lewis selected to referee Top Prospects game BRIAN MCNAIR bmcnair@durhamregion.com TORONTO -- Everybody who skates in the annual CHL/NHL Top Prospects Game has dreams of one day making it to the National Hockey League. In fact, in a game that featured 40 play- ers last week at the Air Canada Centre, there were 44 of them all told who would like noth- ing more than to reach that level. The other four? Well, they weren’t wearing the red of Team Cherry or the white of Team Orr, but rather the black-and-white stripes of the officiating crew. And two of them hail from Durham Region. Dave Lewis, a 28-year-old Pickering native now living in Whitby, was refereeing his third straight Top Prospects game, while Oshawa’s Jordan Browne, 23, was in his second in a row as a linesman. “Of course, it’s an honour for us, to be with these players, these guys who are very close to making the NHL,” Lewis said from the ACC, shortly after Team Orr’s 7-1 win. “Being an NHL ref is a dream, I think, of every offi- cial. There’s not many spots available but, hey, you give it a try and do what you can do.” Indeed, it is an exclusive group. Currently there are 39 referees and 33 linesmen in the NHL, many of whom have been around for years. In other words, it’s more difficult to make the leap as an official than as a player. “That would be a dream come true for anybody working at our level,” said Browne. “Having said that, there’s only 33 linesmen jobs in the NHL and guys aren’t exactly look- ing to give up their jobs. So, not a whole lot of job opportunities, but that would definitely be something to look forward to.” The game was a relatively tame affair, with only one fight and nine minor penalties called, and nothing considered controversial from that standpoint. It was also played before a quiet crowd, generously listed at 8,029, a stark contrast to the atmosphere in Oshawa two years before, when nearly 6,000 jammed into the Gener- al Motors Centre in Oshawa and rocked the joint. “The one in Oshawa was a great game,” Lewis said of a match that centred around Generals star John Tavares. “This was a good game too, but there was a little bit more sup- port from the Oshawa fans, I found.” Lewis started officiating in Pickering at 14, and quickly worked his way up through the ranks, joining the OHL seven years ago and becoming a referee two years after that. With most assignments being on the weekend, he pointed out how fortunate he is to have an understanding boss with the Durham Regional Police, where he has worked for the past three years. “I’m trying to balance it as much as possi- ble with the police force,” he said. “It’s great to have a supportive boss who gives me tons of time off to be able to do this.” Browne, who recently finished up studies at the University of Guelph, is more flexible in that regard. Right now, this is his only gig, which allows him plenty of time to work out, a necessary part of the job for someone who’s often called upon to separate fighters. He started officiating at 15 in Oshawa, once he realized he wasn’t going anywhere as a player, and has been with the OHL for four seasons now. “Originally I started just to make a couple extra bucks and have some money in my pocket and ended up realizing that there was opportunities available to me,” he said. Both Lewis and Browne were recently hired by the American Hockey League as well, bringing them a step closer to the show. Even if they don’t make it all the way there, though, both love the job enough to keep plugging away. “If you don’t make the NHL, it’s not the be- all and end-all,” Lewis said, who will be in Ukraine for the 2011 IIHF world champion- ship Division I, Group B tournament in April. “There’s world juniors and all kinds of differ- ent events you can do still.” In the meantime, all Lewis and Browne can do is the best job possible, and hope they get noticed. “Just like the players, there’s people in the building tonight and on any given night watching us,” Browne said after the Prospects Game. “Regardless of where it is or what the game is, there’s always someone watching so you have to be professional and take every game seriously.” RON PIETRONIRO / METROLAND TORONTO -- OHL referee Dave Lewis, a Pickering native, kept a close eye on the play dur- ing the 2011 Top Prospects game Jan. 19 at the Air Canada Centre. durhamregion.comNews Advertiser • January 27, 201113 AP 77 Centennial Road, Ajax • 905.683.0740 • www.ajaxsoccerclub.ca AJAX FC NEWS National Champions Ajax Soccer Club 2010 U16 Boys Register in person at our clubhouse or online for 2011 Outdoor Soccer.

The Mark Kean-skipped rink based out of Ajax is going to grow up in a big hurry this weekend as they take to the ice against some of the best curlers in the world at the BDO Canadian Open that began Wednesday and runs through to Sunday’s championship game at 1 p.m. at the General Motors Centre in Oshawa. The team, which includes Chris Van Huyse, Patrick Janssen and Tim March, opened round robin play Thursday morn- ing at 10 and continues with an evening session at 8:30 p.m. The final three round robin games go Friday at 10 a.m., 5 p.m. and 8:30 p.m. “The goal is to make the playoffs,” said Kean of the aspirations of the team. “Win- ning a couple of games is definitely a goal. Just play well. “This is our first event on arena ice, so that is going to be a big change, so we are going to have to make adjustments for that.” If Kean sounds like someone who doesn’t really know what to expect, it’s because this is all new to the team. Just in its first season of play together, the team can be considered up-and-comers, unlike established teams skipped by the likes of Glenn Howard, Kevin Martin, Randy Fer- bey, Jeff Stoughton and Wayne Middaugh to name just a few who will be playing. When a couple of European and Que- bec teams had to decline an invitation to play in Oshawa, Kean got an early present when an e-mail came on Christmas Eve with an offer to play. “It was sweet,” he says of the opportu- nity to play against provincial, national, international and Olympic champions. “We had a little notice that we might get an invite, but we had to have a couple of teams back out. “When we set out at the beginning of the year we weren’t even close to the top in Canada or the Order of Merit.” Kean, who lives just outside Woodstock, got his start in the Little Rocks program at his home club, and competed with Brantford at the junior level. He teamed up with Van Huyse, Janssen and March, all three Scarborough residents who call Annandale home, for the start of this sea- son. “We had played against each other in juniors and beat up on each other and finally decided it was a good idea to put something together,” says Kean of the merger. “We are all pretty competitive and we wanted to take it to another level.” They have youth on their side, with Kean just 22, Van Huyse is 24, while Jans- sen and March are each 23. They grew up as a team back in October, when they managed to upset the Howard rink, which includes Pickering’s Richard Hart. There was an intimidation factor heading in, just like there will be in Oshawa, but once the game starts, it’s all about mak- ing the shots, says Kean. “Going into the game you’re thinking, ‘OK, we are going to have to play well to beat them.’ You step on the ice, shake their hand and you’re nervous because they are world champions,” he says of playing Team Howard. “The first couple of ends you’re nervous and you just want to make a couple shots. After that it was just like we were playing anyone else. We were just in the zone.” Kean will need to duplicate that feeling again in Oshawa, as well as in Grimsby from Feb. 7-13 when he leads his team into the provincial championships. HOCKEY Oshawa Generals looking for consistency OSHAWA -- If there is one word to explain exactly what Chris DePiero is looking for these days, consistency would fit the bill. That’s with regards to both his young Oshawa Generals and the officiating crews across the Ontario Hockey League. The bad side of both, in DePiero’s view, were on display Sunday afternoon at the General Motors Centre as his club coughed up leads of 4-1 and 5-3 before losing in overtime, 6-5 to the visiting London Knights. With reference to his stumbling hockey club, losers of five of its last seven, but still just four points back of the Ottawa 67’s for first in the East Division with a record of 24-13-4-4, DePiero said the lack of consistent play over the past few weeks is a matter of working through the growing pains. The insinuation was that perhaps a more vet- eran team would not have surrendered a pair of solid leads against a Knights team that, after a flurry of trade deadline deals, is still trying to carve out an identity. Saturday night at home to Kingston, the Gen- erals won 5-4 in overtime. Friday in Kitchener, three third-period goals sunk the Generals in a 6-2 final. durhamregion.comNews Advertiser • January 27, 201114 AP RINGETTE Gold for Pickering at Holiday Classic U10 team tops playing up an age level PICKERING -- It’s been an excit- ing season so far for the Pickering U10 B regional ringette team.

Recently, the girls had the opportunity to par- ticipate in the Markham Ringette Association’s 30th Annual Holi- day Classic Tournament, where they played up an age level in the U12 C division. The girls played to a 3-3 tie against Markham in their first game, defeated Whitby 7-4 in their second game and drew their sec- ond tie against the Oshawa U10 B team in their third. The final game saw a rematch against the Oshawa U10 B team. The Pickering squad squeaked by with a 4-3 victory to win the gold medal. Team members include Cori- lee Ainsworth, Chloe Beale, Alex Blake, Ella Coutts, Jessica Cowie, Kaleigh Croft, Emma DeSil- va, Madison Ford, Emily Jones, Nicole Jones, Kaitlyn McGil- len, Tiffany Mooy and Georgia Owens.

Dear father to John Nemeth and Jane Warr. Loving Grandfather to Keri and Sierra Warr. Services took place on Tuesday, January 25, 2011 at The Simple Alternative Funeral Centre, Pickering. Cremation took place at Thornton Cemetery. Sadly missed by all. When I'm Gone When I come to the end of my journey And I travel my last weary mile Just forget if you can, that I ever frowned And remember only the smile Forget unkind words I have spoken Remember some good I have done Forget that I ever had heartache And remember I've had loads of fun Forget that I've stumbled and blundered And sometimes fell by the way Remember I have fought some hard battles And won, ere the close of the day. Then forget to grieve for my going I would not have you sad for a day But in summer just gather some ﬂ owers And remember the place where I lay. And come in the shade of evening When the sun paints the sky in the west Stand for a few moments beside me And remember only my best. In Memory of my Twin Sister Tracy Lynn Gorman (nee Black) January 10, 1972 - December 7, 2002 God picks ﬂ owers from his garden above And sends them down for a family to love One Monday morning He sent some twins And their family burst with love from within They grew into two young girls One with straight hair, one with blond curly curls Then one day the sky turned gray Everyone in the family began to pray An accident took one twin away Leaving behind a family in dismay Sometimes we don't always understand Just what God has in his plans Please, remember Tracy as your life goes on Cause her life is now heaven's home When sorrow or pain ache in your heart Remember how Tracy's soul always bubbled And that it has been put to peace and rest And God took Tracy because he only takes the very best!!
