PICKERING -- Young LEGO fans turned out in
droves to show off their building skills at the
Pickering Library.
LEGO at the Library offered children the
chance to enjoy an hour of free LEGO building
with their peers and practise for the library’s
upcoming LEGO Construction Contest.
Randy Jarvis, a marketing and outreach rep-
resentative for the library, said he was sur-
prised at the turnout for the event on July 21 at
the Central Library branch. More than 40 kids
showed up, necessitating some last-minute
scrambling for extra tables and chairs.
“The LEGO programs have been really pop-
ular for us, but this is about twice as many
kids as we normally get,” he explained, noting
the exceptionally hot weather may have had
something to do with the increase.
“LEGO is very popular with kids, and this is
a chance for them to come out, socialize, play
and use their creativity. It’s kind of a lead-in to
get kids excited about the contest.”

Claims zoning not proper
and project
should be stopped
Keith GilliGan
kgilligan@durhamregion.com
DURHAM -- An environmental group is
heading to court in an effort to stop Durham’s
planned incinerator.
DurhamCLEAR (Durham Citizens Lobby
for Environmental Awareness and Respon-
sibility) launched the legal challenge last Fri-
day, stating the zoning for the facility doesn’t
comply with the Clarington Official Plan.
DurhamCLEAR president Doug Anderson
said the lawsuit was filed now because “we’ve
run out of options, basically. We would have
had more options if Regional councillors had
been paying more attention to the issues we
raised over the years.”
The suit also alleges the project breach-
es the provincial planning act and the Host
Community Agreement between Dur-
ham and Clarington is “invalid as an illegal
restraint on, and divestiture of, the legislative
powers and decision making authority” of
Clarington council.
The charges haven’t been proven in court.
A hearing is set for Friday, Aug. 12, at 9:30
a.m. at the provincial courthouse in down-
town Oshawa.
The lawsuit was filed against Durham
Region, Clarington and Covanta, a U.S.-
based company chosen to design, build and
operate the facility.
The incinerator is planned for Osbourne
Road in Clarington and would burn up to
140,000 tonnes of waste annually.
“Courts are about logic and truth. (Region-
al councillors) haven’t been listening to our
logic and truth, so we’ll let the courts decide,”
Mr. Anderson said.
Durham Chairman Roger Anderson said
he’s heard about the lawsuit, but “we haven’t
been served with anything.
“We haven’t been serviced. Once we have,
we will review it and we’ll defend the Region’s
position,” Roger Anderson stated. “Any time
you have to go to court, it could stop things.
We have no intention of stopping. We’ll move
forward. I’m comfortable with what we’ve
done. Everything we’ve done is legal. Every-
thing Clarington has done is legal. Everything
Covanta has done is legal. DurhamCLEAR
doesn’t think so.
“I’m confident we’ll win and move on,” the
chairman added.
Doug Anderson said the reasoning for
attacking the plan based on the zoning is to
get the “low-hanging fruit. It’s a thing we’re
fairly confident in. Basically, we needed one
area.
“There are several aspects of the thing
we’re going after and all lead to the same
thing,” Doug Anderson noted. “If we win, the
Region will have to apply for a rezoning. That
will take time. We hope, in the interim, that
Regional councillors decide this isn’t a good
thing and pull back on the whole thing.”
Admitting the court challenge will be
expensive, Doug Anderson said, “We’ve had
lots of offers” to help financially. “We’ve had
numerous offers. People have said ‘if it comes
to this, count me in.’ We’d rather not spend
the money.”
If the Region wins, Roger Anderson said
“absolutely” Durham would seeks costs.
“If we sue somebody, they would seek costs
as well. DurhamCLEAR, I don’t know who
they are. They’re not a corporation. They bet-
ter have assets, because they’ll pay if they lose,
like anybody else,” Roger Anderson said.
As for being held liable for cost, “our lawyers
don’t see that as an issue,” Doug Anderson
said. “It’s the attitude of the Region. When the
going gets tough, they get aggressive.”
He pointed to Clarington receiving a let-
ter from the Region threatening legal action
if the municipality withdrew from the Host
Community Agreement.
“They get a nasty lawyer’s letter threaten-
ing them. We’re fairly confident where we’re
going.”

AJAX -- A small cabin was a total loss
after a fire on a north Ajax property on
Saturday.
Ajax firefighters got the call about the
fire on Church Street North, near Ross-
land Road, at 6:13 p.m.
“It was a property that has a house and
several, I’ll call them abandoned cab-
ins and one of these exterior cabins was
a total fire loss,” said Deputy Fire Chief
Michael Gamba.
There was no fire hydrant on the prop-
erty.
“We used tankers and Pickering
brought one of their tankers over for us,”
said Deputy Chief Gamba.
The site was formerly a camp for Jew-
ish children called Camp Yungvelt which
was opened by the Toronto Workmen’s
Circle in 1925.

PICKERING -- Three Pickering men have
been charged in a robbery that left a
York Region police officer with a gunshot
wound.
The Province’s Special Investigations
Unit is examining the July 22 incident, in
which one of the suspects was also shot.
Both the officer and the suspect are recov-
ering and the suspect remains in hospital,
York Region Police said.
Last Thursday officers responded to a
report of a robbery in progress at a Bell
store in Aurora, York police said. The cops
were attempting to arrest suspects when
an altercation occurred. During the melee
the officer and the suspect sustained gun-
shot wounds.
Charged with robbery, forcible con-
finement, weapons possession and other
offences are Ryan Michael Patrick Ber-
ment, 18, 24-year-old Michael Kevin
Whitlock, and a 17-year-old youth, all of
Pickering. Mr. Berment is also charged
with assaulting a police officer and carry-
ing a concealed weapon.
Both the police and the SIU investiga-
tions continue. The SIU investigates inci-
dents of death, serious injury or sexual
assault involving police.

Invasive species can
cause blisters and scars
Moya DIllon
mdillon@durhamregion.com
PICKERING -- The fight against invasive
species continues in Pickering after a sight-
ing of giant hogweed in the Rouge Valley
area.
Added to the provincial noxious weeds list
in 2010, giant hogweed was sold and plant-
ed as a garden flower beginning in the 1940s,
making it widespread throughout the prov-
ince.
Giant hogweed sap can cause skin irrita-
tion, reacting with sunlight to cause burns
and blisters and often leaving behind pur-
plish black scars.
Warren Nicholishen, weed inspector for
the Region of Durham, said the plant has
been sighted and confirmed in small pop-
ulations around the region and seems to
be especially prevalent close to waterways.
Sightings so far include a watershed drainage
area in Brooklin, pockets located throughout
the Rouge Valley and along Lake Ontario in
Pickering and Ajax and along creeks and riv-
ers in Durham’s northern townships.
“If it falls on regional road allowances or
property then we get involved and look at
the best ways of controlling and eradicat-
ing it the best and safest way we can,” Mr.
Nicholishen explained. “If it falls on private
property then we record it and work with the
local municipality. We would usually work
with the homeowner and maybe direct them
to hire a professional exterminator.”
The plant is particularly stubborn and
often requires annual spraying to ensure the
root system is destroyed.
“When the plant doesn’t get enough water
it goes dormant and you think it’s dead but
it will come back,” Mr. Nicholishen said. “It
usually needs to be treated for three consec-
utive springs for active agents to make their
way into the root system.”
The approach to eradicating hogweed
involves co-ordination from several different
levels, including the Province, through the
Invading Species Awareness Program, local
municipalities, regional governments and
conservation authorities.
Fraser Smith, terrestrial invasive species
liaison for the Ontario Federation of Anglers
and Hunters, which helps run the awareness
program, said the most important thing peo-
ple can do when they spot giant hogweed is
to get confirmation.
“There are several dead-ringer look-alikes
for this plant,” Mr. Smith said, citing plants
such as cow parsnip.
“The most important thing is to make sure
what you’re dealing with is giant hogweed
and get a positive identification. That’s what
we do.”
Mr. Smith recommends contacting the
invasive species hotline at 1-800-563-7711
for tips on identifying the plant. He said the
plant is a main target of invasive species
organizations because of the health risks.
“We’ve been focusing on it because it’s
such a high-profile invasive and does pose
such a risk to public health,” he said.
“It’s quite an imposing plant. It’s hard to
miss because it can grow up to 15 feet tall
so people are fairly aware of it and we try to
encourage that awareness and educate peo-
ple about it.”
In Pickering, the City has yet to be con-
tacted regarding local sightings of giant hog-
weed, although it does have a bylaw in place
that would allow city staff to address an infes-
tation on private property.
“We do have a provision to address a com-
plaint, but it would have to be an infestation,”
said Brad Suckling, municipal law enforce-
ment officer for the city, who notes that nor-
mally staff would work with a homeowner
to address the problem. “In 10 years we’ve
never had a complaint to bylaw dealing with
noxious weeds.”
Throughout Durham, officials continue
to monitor and evaluate confirmed popula-
tions for possible eradication.
“In the cases where it’s deep in wetland
areas, it’s not feasible to go in and treat it,”
Mr. Nicholishen explained.
“The best we can do is protect it from get-
ting into trail systems, gardens and agricul-
tural fields. We are monitoring the different
locations and treating it when we can and
as best as we can. Our main focus is to keep
pedestrian and motor traffic safe.”
Mr. Nicholishen stresses that homeowners
dealing with the plant should be sure to wear
safety goggles, rubber gloves and boots and
recommends people try not to get too close
if they do spot the plant.

CORRECTION NOTICEFUTURE SHOP
AJAX -- An investigation into fraudulent credit card use
has led to the arrest of an Ajax man on numerous charges,
including running a cheque-cashing scheme that targeted
victims in the United States.
Durham fraud cops were contacted earlier this month by
security at the Pickering Town Centre over concerns a man
had been using credit cards obtained with fake identification
to make purchases.
Last Friday police arrested a suspect and searched his
home, seizing thousands of dollars in gift cards. They also
found evidence of a cheque fraud scheme. Victims across the
U.S. were lured by Internet offers and persuaded to depos-
it cheques in their bank accounts, then send the bulk of the
money back to Canada, police said.
The cheques were forged and the victims were out the
money they remitted, police said.
Charles Braimoh, 41, of Wilsongary Circle in Ajax, faces
numerous fraud-related offences.

AJAX -- A five-car collision involving three cars, a
dump truck and a transport truck on Friday morning
closed the Westney Road and Bayly Street intersec-
tion on Friday.
Durham police got the call at 10:28 a.m. said Sgt.
Nancy van Rooy.
“It’s fairly serious ... one of the drivers had to be
extricated and transported to a local hospital,” she
said, adding that other people at the scene were
treated by paramedics and may have been trans-
ported to a local hospital as well.
Sgt. van Rooy said a bus shelter and a hydro poll
were also damaged and Veridian had been called.
Carol Wells passed by the area after the collision
occurred. She said most of the vehicles ended up
on Westney Road on the north side of the inter-
section and it seemed the dump truck may have
hit them.
She said a woman who had been driving a silver
Acura was taken to hospital, another car ended
up on the median on Westney Road and a third
car had been pushed into the bus shelter.
“It had been pushed through the bus stop and
the bus stop glass is all over the place,” said Ms.
Wells.
The dump truck had come to a stop after collid-
ing with a transport truck, she reported.

Airport
Pickering does not need
an airport
To the editor:
Re: ‘Possibility of Pickering airport
revived’ news, July 13, 2011.
It is with disbelief that I read this arti-
cle. The first issue was that the federal
government still plans to build an airport
in Pickering. Where are their heads? Did
the Canadian government not learn from
the fiasco of Mirabel? Today Mirabel ter-
minal is a warehouse. Does Pickering
truly need another warehouse -- away
from railroads and highways? It does not
make sense to build a terminal for the
long-term purpose of storage.
I am not saying that Pearson does not
have full capacity -- at times -- but space
is available there and should a rail line
be connected to the airport it would
reduce traffic congestion. Like Mirabel,
the Pickering location is inconvenient for
local residents and especially for travel-
lers from other destinations who might
have to transfer from Pearson to Pickering
to catch connecting flights.
Federal Minister of Finance Jim Fla-
herty made comments and our Mayor
Dave Ryan praised them!
The only thing “unique” about this busi-
ness is it seems the people of Pickering
and area have been sold a bill of goods
thinking our council supported the cause
to save our heritage, our land and to
assure food for the future. The last thing
we need is more concrete on good farm
land.
Our council seems happy that the fed-
eral government has made a “resolution”.
Perhaps we should resolve to limit elect-
ed offices to two terms. That way the peo-
ple who care about people would have
an opportunity to serve their community
and leave behind a proper legacy.
To the others out there nodding your
heads, please make your thoughts
known.
Let our council and the federal govern-
ment know we do not want nor do we
need an airport in Pickering.

pets
There’s no need to just
abandon helpless kittens
To the editor:
Please print this so that maybe it will
avert even one instance of animal cruelty.
Someone left a box of month-old kittens
alone behind a strip mall in 35-degree
heat.
Would it have been so hard to bring
them to a shelter or offer them for adop-
tion rather than leaving them out there to
suffer?
Not only were they very hungry and
thirsty, but some predator could have got-
ten to them.
Have a heart. Someone would have
cared for these cute kittens. Our family is
proof of that as we have rescued homeless
kittens.
The Town also goes door to door
demanding a fee for every pet.
Maybe this would have been an oppor-
tunity to see those fees put to good use in
care for the helpless kittens.

& Canadian troops showed their mettle in Afghanistan
‘ordinary Canadians
in a way re-discovered
our troops’
Canadian troops have paid the ultimate
sacrifice to help work toward a stable
environment and to combat insurgents
in Afghanistan.
And while the success of the military
mission is highly debatable, there’s no
doubt ordinary Canadians in a way re-
discovered our troops, their profession-
alism and commitment, and their sacri-
fice.
It was evident every time a member
of the Canadian Forces was killed in
Afghanistan and rode the Highway of
Heroes, beneath a sombre group of peo-
ple standing on Hwy. 401 bridges paying
their respects.
As the country’s military mission in
Afghanistan ends, Canada has lost 157
soldiers, our troops first sent to the trou-
bled country almost a decade ago in the
wake of the 9/11 attacks.
Our men and women in uniform had
an incredibly difficult, maybe impossi-
ble, job for a number of reasons.
Unlike conventional wars of the past,
where it was generally clear who and
often where your enemy was, in Afghan-
istan friend and foe appeared the same.
That factor alone accounts for a lot of the
stress our troops endured: every teen-
ager, every smiling elderly villager might
have been a killer. It was like the enemy
was everywhere and nowhere.
It was truly an invisible enemy who laid
the improvised explosive devices that
killed many of our soldiers.
Even victories weren’t permanent: the
enemy played hide-and-seek, occupy-
ing a village and then, when Canadians
or other members of the International
Security Assistance Force came to take
it and drive them out, disappearing, per-
haps after a brief, fierce fire fight, only to
return at a later time when the foreign
troops had left.
This was a nightmare military situation
in a country where, as the Soviets found
out in the 1980s, superior firepower is
no match against a determined and wily
enemy.
In that kind of environment, true victo-
ries are seldom, if ever, achieved.
One cannot fault the Afghans, who were
understandably reluctant to come out in
favour of the foreign forces and against
the Taliban-led insurgents, given their
belief that the latter would be in control
again at some point and out for retribu-
tion.
In this context, our soldiers did their
utmost, and Canadians recognized that,
showing their appreciation and their sor-
row each time a soldier and his or her
family made that sad trip down the High-
way of Heroes.
We showed ourselves to be very capa-
ble soldiers.
We showed ordinary Afghan people, as
many as we could, that we weren’t just
there to kill Taliban and al Qaeda but to
help them recover from decades of con-
flict and give them hope. To demonstrate
that there was another way to live, hard
as it may be to achieve.

I’m not sure when exactly I fell off of the
Harry Potter bandwagon. Probably some-
where around the Half-blood thingy or the
Deathly Whatchamacallit, or maybe it was
in the middle of The Goblet of Stuff.
All of a sudden I just didn’t care. I knew
things had seriously slipped a cog when
I was watching one of the later films and
found myself wondering what Mrs. McG-
onagall would look like naked. Horrible, I
know, and truly reprehensible, but there
you have it.
That’s how far my attentions had wan-
dered.
I was and always will be a huge Harry
Potter and J.K. Rowling fan, if for no other
reason than these books got children fired
up about reading again. But I have to say,
even though I’ve read them all, I can real-
ly only remember storylines from the first
three tales. I think that must be because
those were the last three books I got to
read to my children. After book three, the
boys had launched themselves on their
own reading adventures.
I also think those were the best of the
bunch. The first few books were wonder-
fully crafted, clean, concise stories. After
The Prisoner of Azkaban, it seemed that,
like Dickens or Melville, she was being
paid by the word. Suddenly we had these
huge, weighty tomes to contend with.
There must be an entire generation of par-
ents out there with freakishly large fore-
arms from trying to hold those books while
reading to a child.
And the stories got muddled. For all I
took away from them the titles may as well
have been:
‘Harry Potter and the Reasonably Impor-
tant Decision’.
‘Harry Potter and the Sort of Critical
Deadline’.
‘Harry Potter and the Undefined Threat
of Some Kind’.
Anyway, I’m in no rush to see the last
movie. Call me callous but I don’t really
care what happens to Harry and the gang.
I know my kids enjoyed the pants off of
this last offering. One of them saw it twice.
But I just can’t get up for it. I might be able
to scare up a little enthusiasm if by some
literary or cinematic magic Harry sudden-
ly found himself storming a Nazi strong-
hold or if Dobby and Ron were fending
off a Banzai charge from a machine gun
pit on Guadalcanal. Or even if Hermione
were desperately trying to keep Hagrid
from facing down Snape and his six guns
at High Noon. I can’t get enough of all of
that kind of stuff.
Where and why did it all go south? Well, I
think I felt Harry, Hermione and Ron slip-
ping away from me at the same time that
I felt my own children’s small hands slip-
ping out of mine. And let’s face it, those
characters were never mine. Not real-
ly. But they were and are special. If for
no other reason than those stories and
the moments we spent in bed with those
books were some of the most truly magi-
cal of my life. Moments when you felt you
were really hitting your stride as a parent,

The vast bulk of parenting is like wad-

We’re never really sure if we’re headed in
the right direction and the ground is con-

someone or something can provide us

it’s weight in gold. Goblin gold even.

A firefighter controlled
the area of a grass fire
near Ravenscroft Road
and Taunton Road.
When I arrived on the
scene of this grass fire
everything was already
under control. There
were no more flames or
smoke visible but fire-
fighters were still soaking
the area.
I put on our 300mm
lens and waited. It took
a little bit of patience but
eventually this firefighter
turned in my direction
allowing me to grab this
shot.

Ontario’s Progressive Conservatives propose having sex offenders wear GPS devices to track their movements if they are listed on an offenders’ registry, even if they’ve served sentences meted out by the courts. What do you think?
I’m 100 per cent in favour. If you do the crime... (57%)
Although I have some issues with it, better safe than sorry, right? (18%)
If they’ve served their sentence, then no. This is just another hot button issue to get election votes. (26%)

A lot has happened in the past 100
years.
Every aspect of our lives has changed in
that short period of time.
How we are entertained, how we trav-
el, where we work, have all gone through
monumental changes.
But nothing has changed more than our
health.
I don’t need a study to tell me we are
living longer and healthier lives. I just
need to listen to the excited family mem-
bers when they call to tell me their mom,
dad, grandmother or grandfather is turn-
ing 100.
For the past few months, it seems at
least once a week I’m getting a call about
a 100th birthday.
Sometimes we go out and just take a
picture but other times, we plan a story
and those centurions are always willing
to give their opinion on why they have
lived so long.
Diet and exercise are the most popular
answers but other answers have included
a glass of wine a day, a drink of scotch or
a cigar.
One gentleman I interviewed years ago
told me he lived to be 100 because he
never fought with his wife. Many mem-
bers of the 100-year-old club have said
their spouses get all the credit for their
longevity. When I first started out in
Cobourg, one woman told me keeping a
little bit of spice and surprise in her mar-
riage was the secret to a long life.
That may be true but my guess is a bet-
ter diet, exercise and a health-care system
with better drugs, doctors, nurses and
other health-care professionals are more
likely the answer to people living longer.
And with those long lives come great
stories about places they travelled and
jobs they held.
It always amazes me when people recall
events from 50 years ago because I have
trouble remembering what I did yester-
day.

This is the first year the library will be
hosting a LEGO contest, and Mr. Jarvis
said it was planned partly in response to
the positive reaction they get for other
programs such as LEGO at the Library,
which has been running for several years.
“We want to be a part of the commu-
nity and this is very popular with our
community,” he said.
“This is a chance for the
community to show off their
creativity and see what
everyone else is
doing. I think
people like it
because LEGO
is just pure imag-
ination, you can
build whatever you can
imagine.”
Deirdre Gomes brought her chil-
dren Jared, 11, and Lauren, 9, to enjoy the
event. She described her son, Jared, as a
“LEGO fanatic,” and said the library was
the only place that offered LEGO-related
activities for his age group.
“Jared’s been into LEGO forever,” she
explained.
“He’s pretty isolated with what he wants
to do so I was trying to find clubs or
leagues he could join but they’re all in the
U.S or for adults. This is fantastic. I told
him to talk to people today and see if any-
one else would want to start a club.”
While Jared was enjoying spending time
with fellow LEGO fanatics, he was far
too busy building to make any concrete
plans.
“I’ve made a car, a garage and a couch so
far. I think I’m going to make more furni-
ture,” Jared said, cataloguing the growing
inventory of LEGO objects before him.
“I like LEGO because it’s the fun of being
able to create stuff. It’s
being able to think
you can cre-
ate anything
you want. I
have a ton
of stuff at home
I made myself.
Stuff that flies,
stuff that drives,
I’ve been building
since I got a Bob
the Builder set when I was five.”
“If you think he loves LEGO you should
see his room,” his sister Lauren interrupt-
ed, rolling her eyes.
“He had to take some stuff out so my
Dad could put a table in there from the
garage, for all his models.”
Fellow LEGO lover Dylan, 9, was build-
ing a house complete with a yard and
white picket fence, and said he was
already working on a LEGO robot at home
for the construction contest.
“I love LEGO, I like building stuff,” he
said when asked why he liked LEGO so
much.
His grandmother, Judy Pearce, sees
LEGO as much more than just a fun activ-
ity.
“He can take a big piece, look at a dia-
gram and do it all by himself without ask-
ing anyone for help,” she said of Dylan.
“It’s a great activity to help kids focus
because it’s very visual, but it also allows
them to use their creativity.”
A growing number of LEGO sculptures
on the Library’s auditorium stage includ-
ed buildings, trees, people, plants, a con-
struction crane, Spiderman hugging the
Pink Panther and even a replica of the
Eiffel Tower.
“Like I said, anything you can imagine,”
Mr. Jarvis said as he surveyed the kids’
final projects.
Kids and adults alike can show off their
LEGO skills in the LEGO Construction
Contest. Categories include Junior, for
ages nine and under, Tween for ages 10
through 13, Expert for ages 14 and over,
Family and Group.
All entrants must register in person at
the library or by phone by Wednesday,
Aug. 17 and be present for judging on Sat-
urday, August 20 at 2 p.m. No LEGO con-
struction kits are allowed.

LEGO lovers converge on Pickering library
PiCKERiNG -- The Pickering Library is
being recognized for its efforts to instill a
love of reading in area children through the
2010 Reading Club.
The library was the recipient of an hon-
ourable mention from the 2010 TD Sum-
mer Reading Club and Library and Archives
Canada annual award. This national award
recognizes the efforts of participating
libraries in fostering an interest and love of
reading in children in their areas.
“I am absolutely thrilled to receive the
TD Summer Reading Club Library award,”
said Sarah West, children’s librarian at the
Pickering Library. “Staff worked so hard on
developing the 2010 reading club and pro-
moting it to the community. They deserve
the recognition.”
The library has two main goals in
approaching its summer reading pro-
gram: to foster a love of reading in children
and to reduce the amount of learning loss
that children experience over the summer
break.
“Children can lose several months of
reading achievement if they do not keep it
up over the summer,” said Kathy Williams,
director of public service at the library.
Pickering Library was among five libraries
nationally to be recognized with the award.
The 2011 Summer Reading Club is under-
way now.

CLARINGTON -- Jen Bird gave 9-month-old Amur tigers Sasha and Sergei a hug, as
she greeted them at Jungle Cat World
Bowmanville resident never
meant to be a zookeeper
at Jungle Cat World
Tara HaTHerly
thatherly@durhamregion.com
DURHAM -- Jungle Cat World’s head zoo-
keeper never meant to be a zookeeper at all.
The Orono zoo’s head caretaker, Jen Bird,
had always planned to be a police officer
working with a K-9 unit or the RCMP.
Although she had a lifelong love affair with
animals, it never occurred to her to make a
career out of it.
“I kind of stumbled upon it,” the 23-year-old
Bowmanville resident said of her current job.
“It was the right time, it was the right place.”
During her last year at Bowmanville High
School, she was looking for somewhere to
earn co-op credits. She tried Jungle Cat World
in the hopes of working at the zoo’s Havel-
berg Dog Academy to gain experience to put
toward working with dogs as a police officer.
The zoo told her they didn’t need help with
the dog academy as much as they did the
zoo, and offered her a semester of work there
instead,
She figured any experience with animals
was useful, and accepted the position, never
thinking she would become head zookeeper
three years later.
“I never, ever thought I was going to get a
full-time zookeeping job there,” she said, still
sounding a little surprised at how her life has
panned out.
Although unplanned, the move turned out
to be just what she needed.
“I’m a much happier person now,” she said.
“I enjoy every bit of my life there. Some days
are hard, and it gets emotional sometimes,
but it’s something I’ve become extremely
passionate about, and I didn’t have anything
like that before.”
She loves all her animals, but has a soft
sport for the big cats, especially her lions and
tigers. Watching animals grow up from birth,
and being able to educate people on endan-
gered species, is especially rewarding for her.
She’s seen some hairy moments, but that’s
just part of the job.
“Things happen sometimes,” she said.
“They’re all wild animals, you can’t expect
a wild animal to be anything but a wild ani-
mal.”
She said working with animals takes pas-
sion and dedication.
“People who are in this industry aren’t in it
for the money, they’re in it for the animals,”
she said. “The people who are taking care of
these animals care about them as if they were
their children.”
Her advice for anyone hoping to work with
animals is to grab every opportunity avail-
able.
“Volunteer, volunteer, volunteer,” she
encouraged. “Vol-
unteering is the best
thing you can do, as
early as you possibly
can. Co-operative
education is some-
thing else I always
recommend. It’s a
cut-throat indus-
try when it comes to
getting a job in a zoo,
it’s very, very diffi-
cult. As long as you
make yourself stand
out more than others, that’s how you’re going
to get the job. It really does come down to the
experience, and being around animals.”
That route certainly paid off for Ms. Bird.
“It had to have been meant to be,” she said.
“It had to have been, because there’s no other
job I’d rather be doing.”

Ministry approves business case
for new schools, improvements
Kristen Calis
kcalis@durhamregion.com
DURHAM -- Durham Region will see two new
schools and improvements to three others in Sep-
tember 2013.
The Ministry of Education approved the Dur-
ham District School Board’s plans to proceed with
the construction of new elementary schools in
Oshawa and Brooklin, as well as improvements and
additions to schools in Pickering, Port Perry and
Uxbridge.
The Oshawa school will go on Woodstream Road,
south of Conlin Road, and east of Grandview Road,
and will accommodate 579 students.
DDSB chairman Larry Jacula said in an interview
the Oshawa school could become a dual-track Eng-
lish and French Immersion elementary school,
depending on a review.
“We’re very excited about the new schools,” he
said.
The new Brooklin school will go at Carnwith Drive
West, south of Columbus Road and east of Ashburn
Road in Brooklin and will also accommodate 579
students.
The chairman and trustees say these schools are
welcome additions to a growing part of Durham.
Whitby trustees Christine Winters and Kimberly
Zeppieri had been pushing for the school.
“The Ministry’s approval of a new public school
in Brooklin is good news for students, families and
the Durham District School Board as we work to
provide the best facilities and programming for our
students,” Trustee Winters said in a press release.
Trustee Jacula, having recently toured a new
Whitby school set to open this September, said “our
new schools going up are just amazing.”
This doesn’t mean the school board is overspend-
ing, he said, but with modern technology, the
schools can do much more with the same amount
of money, such as installing eco roofs.
Both new schools will cost $11.7 million each.
Frenchman’s Bay Public School in Pickering will
receive a new gym addition and the existing gym
will be converted to a library. The existing library
will be converted into two classrooms. This will
eduCation
Pickering schools to get new additions, improvements
cost $4.8 million.
Port Perry High School will receive an addition to accom-
modate renovations and six new science rooms, costing
$4.2 million.
The most expensive renovation, costing $6.6 million, is
planned for Uxbridge Secondary School. The school will
get a new gym and six new classrooms.
Trustee Jacula said the new schools and additions will be
roomier, more comfortable and provide modern, up-to-
date equipment, all to benefit the students.
“Our main thrust at the Durham board of education is
student success,” he said.
These projects are all expected to be completed by Sep-
tember 2013.

Lacrosse
Rock set for playoffs
ajax in tough to open Major
series Lacrosse playoffs
shawn cayLey
scayley@durhamregion.com
AJAX -- On paper, the Ajax Rock appear to be
overmatched in a major way by the Bramp-
ton Excelsiors, their first-round Major Series
Lacrosse playoff opponent.
Following a 9-8 loss to the Brooklin Redmen
last Friday night at the Ajax Community Centre,
the Rock finished the regular season just 3-17,
leaving them last in the standings, some nine
wins and 18 points back of the Excelsiors, who
finished up at 12-8 and in third place.
But how it looks on paper means nothing to
Paul St. John and his club.
Despite their standing, St. John feels confident
heading into tonight’s best-of-five series opener
at the Powerade Centre in Brampton consider-
ing how tough his team played the perennial
powerhouse Excelsiors in four games this sea-
son.
“We really played well against them,” St. John
said, noting losses of 8-6, 12-10 in overtime,
7-6 and 11-6 during the regular season. “Obvi-
ously they are the heavily favoured team going
into this series and they’ve added some play-
ers down the stretch in Joe Walters and Jarrett
Davis that are really good ball players. You know
they’ll be tough to beat, but we’re going to go
in with our hard working (attitude) and try and
grind out some wins and who knows, anything
can happen.”
Walters and Davis were added to a roster that,
while not as star-studded as in the past, still
features the likes of Kevin Ross, Dan Dawson,
Anthony Cosmo and others.
So while anything can indeed happen come
playoff time, one win for the Rock would be a
good start.
“Maybe we can win a game or two,” St. John
said of the mindset his underdog team will take
into the first round. “If we win one, maybe we
get two and maybe we surprise everyone and
win three and win this series.”
While he certainly would have loved to see
more wins during the regular season, St. John
feels that heading into this season, his club’s
record might actually play into their favour.
That the Rock aren’t expected to win this series
allows them to go in with a relaxed, nothing-to-
lose type of attitude.
“We’re realistic,” St. John said, before adding,
“and the players I think are realistic in that, you
know what, we’re in a situation where we’re not
supposed to win so I think it makes it easier for
them to play. You know, the pressure is not on
them. The pressure is on Brampton, obviously,
because they have to, well not have to, but are
supposed to win.”
If the Rock are to steal a game or two, or per-
haps the series, they’ll need some all-world
goaltending from Tyler Carlson and continued
solid play up front from a trio of youngsters in
Jason Mainer, Jordan McIntosh and Jesse Guer-
in. They were Ajax’s top three scorers in the reg-
ular season, with Mainer leading the club with
24-40-64 totals, good enough for sixth in the
league.
McIntosh, the club’s prized third overall draft
pick in the last MSL draft, was fantastic in just 14
games, scoring a team-high 28 goals and finish-
ing with 52 points.
Guerin, who led the team in points a year ago,
had 15-36-51 totals.
Meanwhile, after tonight’s series opener, the
both teams will have little time to regroup with
Game 2 scheduled for Thursday in Ajax and
Game 3 back in Brampton on Friday.
If needed, after a day off on Saturday, Game 4
will be in Ajax Sunday, with a Game 5 scheduled
for Monday in Brampton.
“It’s going to be a tough grind with potentially
five games in six nights,” St. John admits. “That’s
the unfortunate part of the scheduling for this
year with us going to 20 games in the regular
season. It really makes this first round of playoffs
really tough.”
notes
Scoring in the season finale against Brooklin were Jor-
dan McIntosh with three and Jesse Guerin two and
Jason Mainer, Travis Bland and Dilan Graham with
one each. McIntosh, Guerin and Mainer all finished the
night with five points ... Tyler Carlson took the loss in
goal ... The Peterborough Lakers (16-4) and Brook-
lin Redmen (13-7) finished first and second to earn a
first-round bye ... With Brampton and Ajax making up
the three versus six series, Six Nations and Kitchener-
Waterloo ended up in the four versus five. Those two
were supposed to close out the regular season Sunday,
but because the game would have no bearing on regular
season finish, it served as the playoff opener with Six
Nations winning 12-11 to take a 1-0 series lead.

West
getting a
shot with
Canada’s
U18 team
CALGARY -- The selection camp
roster for Canada’s U18 wom-
en’s national program has been
released, and there is some local
content within the list of 40 players
who will be given a shot to wear the
red and white.
Ajax’s Lindsay West, a defence-
man with the Whitby Wolves of
the Provincial Women’s Hockey
League, was one of 12 blue-liners
who will attend a selection camp
Aug. 7-14 at the Canadian Interna-
tional Hockey Academy.
West was also one of 19 from the
PWHL to make the grade. In 36
games with the Wolves this past
season, West compiled nine goals
and 17 points to go along with 26
penalty minutes. She was a big fac-
tor from the point on the power
play, leading the club with four
man advantage goals.
Invitations to the selection camp
in August were extended based on
fitness testing results at the strength
and conditioning camp this past
spring and evaluations made by
Hockey Canada scouts during the
2010-11 season. Scouts graded
players’ performances with their
club teams and at the 2011 Canada
Winter Games in Halifax and at the
2011 Esso Cup, Canada’s national
female midget championship in St.
Albert.
Canada’s U18 team will be
coached by Pierre Alain of Mirabel,
Que., along with assistants Jim Fet-
ter of Waterloo and former national
team member Carla MacLeod.
Of the 40 players in camp, Cana-
da will end up selecting 22 to rep-
resent the team in a three-game
series against the United States
women’s U18 select team later in
August.
Following that series, Hock-
ey Canada scouts along with the
team’s coaching staff will continue
to evaluate players with their club
teams during the 2011-12 season as
they prepare to select the Canadian
team that will compete at the 2012
IIHF U18 women’s world cham-
pionship in the Czech Republic in
January.

Pickering
basketball star
helps team to
5-0 start at
event in Chile
CHILE -- Canada’s junior wom-
en’s national basketball team
has had quite the start to the
2011 FIBA U19 world champi-
onship in Puerto Montt, Chile.
After sweeping through the
first round of play with three
straight wins over China, Egypt
and Italy, the Canadians opened
the second round with yet
another victory, a 66-50 drub-
bing of Russia on Monday, fol-
lowed by another victory over
Japan on Tuesday afternoon.
In the win over Russia, Picker-
ing’s Wumi Agunbiade chipped
in nine points to help lead the
way and was pleased with the
way her team pulled through
despite a rocky third quarter of
play.
“We struggled in the third but
we came out with the win,” said
Agunbiade in a press release on
Basketball Canada’s website.
“I’m very proud of all our play-
ers and the coaching staff for
what we have accomplished
thus far.”
Agunbiade, a six-foot-two
power forward, has gotten bet-
ter with each game at the tour-
nament.
In the opener, the Duquesne
University product scored four
points and had seven rebounds
in a 76-49 triumph over China,
before adding eight points
and three rebounds in Cana-
da’s 99-54 win over Egypt and
another nine points and nine
rebounds in the 75-51 pounding
of Italy.
Tuesday, meanwhile, was her
best effort yet. With Canada’s
perfect record still intact head-
ing into a tilt with Japan, Agun-
biade took her game to a whole
new level, scoring a team-high
21 points and hauling in 10
rebounds in a 68-60 victory.
Agunbiade added two steals,
was eight of 12 from the field
and a perfect four of four from
the free throw line, while five
of her 10 rebounds came at the
offensive end.
Japan posed a stiff test for the
Canadians, bringing a 3-1 record
into the game, but Canada’s
defence stepped up late, lim-
iting Japan to just eight fourth
quarter points.
Canada, meanwhile has locked
up a spot in the quarterfinals
and is now set for its final game
of the round robin, Wednesday
against the United States, who
were undefeated heading into
last night’s game against Italy
after our deadline.

OUA
Lacrosse the newest
varsity sport at UOIT
OSHAWA -- Ken Babcock, the
athletic director at UOIT, has
announced that women’s field
lacrosse is now an official full-
time varsity sport at the univer-
sity.
“With the rich tradition that
lacrosse has in the Durham
Region, it was a natural fit to
become the next full-time sport
offered at UOIT,” said Babcock in
a press release. “We are looking
forward to the Ridgebacks com-
peting for a provincial title against
the top teams in the OUA.”
Amy Fincham, who guided
the team through an exhibition
schedule each of the last two
years as a club sport, will remain
as the head coach. Her experi-
ence in the game dates back a few
years.
In 2007, Fincham was an assis-
tant coach with the Oshawa Lady
Blue Knights under-19 rep team
that went on to win the provincial
title and was part of the coach-
ing staff named the 2007 Ontario
Lacrosse Association coaches of
the year.
As a player, Fincham won four
OUA titles as a member of the
Laurier Golden Hawks, where she
was twice named a first team OUA
all-star (2007, 2008). She was also
a member of the Team Ontario
U19 program from 2002 to 2003
and won the provincial title with
the Oshawa Lady Blue Knights in
2004 and 2005.
Liane Chornobay joins Fin-
cham’s staff as an assistant coach.
She was a teammate at Laurier for
four seasons and has coaching
experience with Edge Lacrosse,
the Oshawa Lady Blue Knights
and Donald A. Wilson Secondary
School in Whitby.
As a player, Chornobay also won
four OUA titles as a member of the
Laurier Golden Hawks, and won
the senior provincial title with the
Lady Blue Knights in 2009.
In 2011, the Ridgebacks will
take part in six tournaments lead-
ing up to the OUA championship,
which is set to take place from
Oct. 21-23 at the University of
Guelph.
Those tournaments are at
Toronto (Sept. 11), Western (Sept.
17), Queen’s (Sept. 24-25), Toron-
to again (Oct. 1-2), Laurier (Oct.
9) and McMaster (Oct. 16)

ROBERTSON, Doris Ellen - (December 27,
1923-July 24, 2011) - Doris Ellen Robertson
passed away on July 24, 2011 at the
Warkworth Community Nursing Home in
Warkworth, Ontario. She was a long-time
resident of Pickering, and the wife of the late
Alexander Main Robertson, founder and
publisher of Pickering's Bay News. Doris was
born in London, England. She and Alex
moved to Canada in 1956. She had originally
intended to become an architect, but volun-
teered to nurse during the battle of Britain
and the Blitz and remained a nurse for over
forty years, working for much of it at the
Toronto East General Hospital as a head
nurse. Near the end of her career, she briefly
became the administrator of the Dr. Ruddy
Hospital in Whitby. She married Alex after a
whirlwind romance in 1946, and they re-
mained together until Alex died in 2002.
She and Alex were very active in community
activities and projects in the Ajax-Pickering
area from the time they moved to Pickering in
1960 until they retired in Brighton, Ontario in
1986. She is survived by her sons, Peter A.
Robertson, of Warkworth, Ontario and Ian A.
Robertson, of Ajax, Ontario, and by her
grandsons, Alexander V. Robertson, of
Ottawa, Ontario and Sean S. Robertson, of
Castleton, Ontario. Visitation will be held at ST. GEORGE'S ANGLICAN CHURCH (77
Randall St., Ajax) on Saturday July 30, 2011
from 9 a.m. until Service time at 10:30a.m.
followed by interment at Erskine Cemetery,
Pickering. In lieu of flowers, donations to the
Parkinson Society would be appreciated.
Arrangements entrusted to MCEACHNIE FUNERAL HOME (905-428-8488) Online
condolences may be placed atwww.mceachniefuneral.ca
FERRIS, Lepa, in her 90th year, formerly of
Ajax, Ontario, died peacefully at Hallowell
House Nursing Home in Picton, Ontario, on
Tuesday, July 12, 2011. Born February
18,1922, in Bosanksi Novi, Bosnia, she was
the daughter of the late Vukica and Vasilije
Jankovic. She was preceded in death by her
beloved husband of 53 years, Harry Ferris.
Together they operated Ferris Textiles
in Ajax, Ontario, after a daring escape to
freedom in Canada from the former
Yugoslavia in 1952. Her only sibling, a
sister Mina of Croatia, preceded her in
death. She is survived by her loving son,
Fred Z. Ferris, and his wife Keltie of Virginia,
3 grandchildren: Sonja Florman, Charles
Ferris, and Keltie Ferris, 3 great-grandchil-
dren: Ferris, Henry and Lola Florman, and a
niece and nephew, Hrvoje and Gordana
Perkovic of Croatia. Her family is grateful for
the exceptionally loving and attentive care
she received from the staff at The Carriage
House, a retirement home in Cherry Valley
where she resided for the past 7 years:
Richard Diamond, Jane Crump, Barbara
Smith, Faith Wiik, as well as from her
physician, Dr. Norah Connell. Ainsworth
Funeral Home, Wellington, Ontario is in
charge of arrangements. 613-399-3177.

later date. Online condolences at www.ainsworthfuneralhome.com
