The dog park in the Westney and Clements roads area is one of two leash-free areas in Ajax. The other is in the Greenwood Conser- vation Area. As it stands, there is a natural buffer between the dog park and Westney made up of plants and grasses and a fence that runs along the back of the site between the park and the trail. “Certainly we’ve heard of over the past sev- eral years that there’s been concerns about people’s dogs wandering onto Westney Road,” said Jeff Stewart, the Town’s manager of envi- ronmental services, at a public meeting on the issue last week.

FIRST DURHAM INSURANCE & FINANCIAL 1920 Bayly St., Pickering 905 427- 5888 or 800 387- 4189 www.firstdurham.com Politics Tim Hudak preaches change in Durham Voters are tired of broken promises and want change, he says ParVaneh Pessian ppessian@durhamregion.com DURHAM -- Days before Ontario elects a new premier, Tim Hudak wants local voters to be fully informed before casting their bal- lots on Oct. 6. The Progressive Conservative leader was greeted by a crowd of supporters at Mara- thon Gas in Ajax on Friday morning where he wasted no time attacking Liberal oppo- nent Dalton McGuinty’s credibility. “During the Ontario Leader’s debate, Dal- ton McGuinty finally looked all of us in the eye and promised, once again ... that he was not raising taxes but, of course, we have heard this exact promise before,” Mr. Hudak said. “So my question to Dalton McGuinty is this: after you brought in the health tax, the HST and the sneaky eco tax -- why would anybody believe you now?” Todd McCarthy, Progressive Conservative candidate for Ajax-Pickering riding, echoed these sentiments by stating the recurring message he hears at the doors from residents is that they feel let down by the Liberal gov- ernment. “People recognize that we’ve been right- ly critical of the McGuinty Liberals for their waste, corruption, high taxes and bro- ken promises and they understand we will change that. “It’s about creating a climate for job cre- ation and prosperity and making sure we don’t allow the McGuinty Liberals to tax us again or to waste one dollar through waste and corruption -- the dollars that we need for our precious front-line health care, edu- cation and other core services that families depend on.” Mr. Hudak’s visit to the riding, and partic- ularly to the Ajax business, is a clear indica- tion of the party’s devotion to job creation, he added. “We have pledged to help small businesses -- job creators -- by reducing red tape and the regulatory burden by 30 per cent by reduc- ing hydro rates and by removing the HST off hydro.” Ajax resident Kandy Samsundar was eager to show her support for the Progressive Con- servatives’s Changebook platform, which she said meets her family’s needs. “I work for a financial institution so I know what the Province can afford and what it can’t,” she said. “There’s a huge deficit that needs to be dealt with so that new jobs can be created. I have two children, one in university, and there are many young people who are very well qualified but can’t find jobs.” Ron Halliday of Pickering said he was once a huge supporter of the Liberal party but will be voting differently this time. “There have been too many broken prom- ises and we have to change that,” he said. “I think it’s going to be a very close race and I’m looking forward to it.” ron Pietroniro / Metroland AJAX -- Conservative Party leader Tim Hudak made a campaign stop in Ajax along with local candidate Todd McCarthy on September 30. Mr. Hudak stopped in at the Marathon Gas and Auto Service station in Pickering Village to talk about Conservatives’ plans to help small businesses stay healthy. People recognize that we’ve been rightly critical of the McGuinty Liberals for their waste, corruption, high taxes and broken promises and they understand we will change that.

The longest portion would run along Westney and the fence would be U-shaped. The fenced area would be the area near the anglers’ parking lot. It would be about five metres from the roadway and Mr. Stewart explained the holes in the fence would be smaller at the bottom to prevent small dogs from escap- ing. Participants at the public meeting were generally in favour of the fence, but suggest- ed enclosing the whole area as opposed to the U-shaped fence. If that were to happen, Mr. Stewart said the Town would have to look at the costs again. “What you’re seeing here is approximately $8,000,” said Mr. Stewart of the three-sided option. One suggestion from the participants was to fully enclose a smaller area, but other people said enclosing a smaller area may not give large dogs enough space to run. Mr. Stewart said if the Town considers alternative designs, it’ll be posted online at townofajax.com and also said he’d have staff look at the fence between the park and the trail after participants said it was run down. At the dog park itself, most people favoured a fence between the park and Westney. “I think it’s a good idea, but I’m curious as to why it’s so short,” said Melanie Waxman who was at the park with her border collie, Spirit. Ms. Waxman said she visits one of Ajax’s leash-free parks at least twice a week. “Given that he’s now a officially a car chas- er, it’s a good thing,” she said, adding that the 15-month old dog recently ran after a car for the first time. Larry Fairbairn, who was visiting the park with dogs Max and Jewel, said he’s been coming to the leash-free park for about four years. He also thinks it’s a good idea to enclose the park on all sides, pointing out that some dogs like to chase cyclists so a fence would protect trail users too. Troy Beggs said he’s not worried about his Boston terrier, but said some dogs are unruly and recalled one instance where a dog being trained ran for the road and got hurt. Danny Chen, who has a one-year-old west highland terrier named Nikki, offered up a minority opinion. “If I’m very frank, no, I don’t think it’s nec- essary,” he said, adding 99 per cent of the dogs at the park wouldn’t make a run for it. Dog owners suggest fencing whole park Top prize for the winning team for the event is $500 PICKERING -- Are you a trivia buff who loves to drive? This event is just for you.

SportS Stop focusing on hockey violence To the editor: Re: ‘Generals offer ‘no excuses’ for loss in home opener’ sports story, durhamregion. com, Sept. 29, 2011. I’m surprised and disappointed that the News Advertiser continues to use fight pho- tos to report on hockey games. Your Sept. 29 story features a fight photo with the cap- tion, ‘Scott Laughton of the Oshawa Gener- als lands a punch to the helmet...’. Was the fight the feature of the game? At a time when headshots are a huge issue, this photo is going in the opposite direction. Young kids are more likely to only look at the photo, and much less likely to read the story. I’d like the News Advertiser to focus on good plays, players and scoring achieve- ments, not on fights. James Hodgins Pickering New Canadian can’t bear watching hockey To the editor: Re: ‘Getting his head back in the game’, sports, News Advertiser, Sept. 28, 2011. I came to Canada from the United King- dom in 2001 and obtained citizenship as soon as I could and now have two beautiful young Canadian children who fill me with pride and joy and also a little bit of frustra- tion. I love being Canadian, sampling all that this great country has to offer and the opportunities both myself and family have. However, one thing I cannot bring myself to watch is the game of hockey. If I were on the street and ran up to some- body from behind and smashed them into a wall or the ground, I would be charged with assault. It seems this is perfectly acceptable and is even glorified by certain hockey pundits. I don’t think we shall ever see Sidney Crosby play again and I was quite appalled at the ending of your piece on Cosimo Fantana, which gave details on a link to see the hit that caused this young athlete who knows what injuries that may not yet be apparent. I love sport, played rep soccer, watch UFC and love the game of rugby. The Rugby World Cup is current- ly being played in New Zealand, the third largest sporting event in the world after the Olympics and soccer’s World Cup. If you want to see a hard team sport without the malicious hits on opponents, then watch this game. Tough, physical, committed, uncompro- mising men and women playing without padding, equally respectful of opponents, fans, referees and younger players. They also set a fine example of camarade- rie and sportsmanship by ‘socializing’ with opponents after a match. Give me this truly wonderful sport any day over hockey and its respected penalty box sitting ‘goons.’ Wishing Cosimo a full and speedy recov- ery. Jason Barnes Pickering Bullying Mitchell’s story brought tears, memories To the editor: Re: ‘Statement of bullied Pickering boy may be heard in court in November’, news, durhamregion.com, Sept. 28, 2011. I hope you and your audience can stand another letter about what it is like to be bullied. When I heard on the news about the young man that committed suicide I just had to write. I am almost 52 years old and hearing that story about the young man killing himself brought me to tears. I was bullied in high school both physically and mentally. I remember thinking that it would be bet- ter if I had never been born. I was wrong! Nobody knows this but I brought my brother’s knife to school and I turned out the lights in the boys’ bathroom and I was going to kill myself. I was going to show everybody. They would really pay for what they had done. I am glad I did not do it. That was my way of getting back at them. I don’t remember their names but I will never, ever forget their faces. Remember, you can be bullied until you die or you can get the bullies back by living! I have never found a cure for a disease and believe me I was certainly forgettable, but I was alive!

But regardless of your political stripe, the most important civic duty you will under- take this week is to make sure you get out and cast a ballot in the provincial election. Whether you opt for the status quo and incumbent in Dalton McGuinty’s Liberals, the social and fiscal alternatives offered by Tim Hudak’s Progressive Conservatives, the left-of-centre platform of Andrea Horwath’s New Democrats, or the social-justice-and- sustainability ideals of the Green Party, it is vital that Durham Region residents exer- cise their franchise and provide a mandate for one of the parties to form Ontario’s next government. Polls in recent weeks have shown the pos- sibility that none of three major parties will garner enough support to form a majority government. But given the experience of Ontarians with successive minority govern- ments at the federal level -- not to mention the back-to-back-to-back elections held as a consequence -- it behooves Durham resi- dents and the larger provincial population to cast their ballots in a bid to avoid a simi- lar scenario here at home. Most Durham residents should already have received voter registration cards in the mail. If you haven’t, it does not prevent you from voting. Simply bring one piece of iden- tification that includes your name and resi- dential address with you to your local poll- ing station so you can live up to your obli- gation. This election comes at a critically important time in the province, particularly as it relates to an economy still being buf- feted by stock market volatility, an uncer- tain outlook on housing and high personal debt here at home, along with record-set- ting deficits in the U.S. and Europe. The next government will have to make extremely difficult choices in balancing the real fis- cal needs at home against the costs of their party platforms, while remaining flexible enough to take action should economic cir- cumstances worsen and dictate a response. In that context, every single vote that could be cast should be cast tomorrow. A strong mandate from the people -- a major- ity mandate -- will set the next government on a clear path, whether Liberal, PC, or NDP. In uncertain times, voters can minimize the surprises and vote for good, strong gover- nance that provides a mandate for next four years. In uncertain times, voters can create some certainty simply by voting. Make every effort tomorrow to do your part. With a provincial election looming, I’ve been pondering some legislation that I think might make all of our lives a little bit better. For starters, I think we’ve been coming at our law-making from a completely wrong angle. We have a ‘penal’ system, which may be fun to say, but is based on a misun- derstood notion of how humans work. We fill books with laws telling peo- ple what they cannot do and threat- en them with dire consequences for doing them. In my meagre experience, I’ve found people respond far better to the car- rot than to the stick. We’ve enacted a myriad of ways to punish individuals for behaving badly but there is virtu- ally nothing in the law to reward peo- ple for doing the right thing. I know, I know, ‘Virtue is its own reward’. But have you tried making a car payment with virtue lately? I say let the cheaters cheat and let the speeders speed. In fact, ignore them all completely. Let the cops focus on the rest of us who are driving safe- ly. Wouldn’t it be sweet if a uniform pulled you over and, instead of nailing you with a ticket and a fine, you had this kind of scenario: “Licence and registration, please.” “What seems to be the problem, offi- cer?” “Oh, no problem Mr. Crone. It’s just that our radar gun clocked you doing the speed limit and leaving plenty of space between you and the vehicle in front of you. “Our cameras also picked you up let- ting that guy in ahead of you at the on- ramp back there. In accordance with the new provincial Highways Act I’m cutting you a cheque for $500. Have a good day, sir.” Right now we’ve got it all bass-ack- wards. We get nailed with ‘points’ for bad driving. We should be giving people points for doing the right thing. How about rewarding people for intelligence, responsibility and kindness? A letter arrives from the newly cre- ated Ministry of Fairness ... “Dear Mr. Crone ... it has come to our attention that on the afternoon of Fri- day, Sept. 21 at 2:43 p.m., the morning of Oct. 15 at 8:07 a.m. and on several further occasions you did willfully and mindfully wave in gratitude at several motorists who showed you a kindness while sharing the road with you. “To that end it is my duty to inform you that the provincial government will be doing a little waving of its own ... like waiving your tax bill this month! Thanks for not being a jerk. The Office of the Premier.” People would be politely falling all over themselves to get a piece of this kind of action. Every one of us has felt like a chump from time to time when some self- ish twit ignorantly cuts in line ahead of us or sails, blithely solo down the HOV lane or behaves in some mani- festly stupid way based on the prem- ise that their time is somehow worth more than ours ... while we silently and invisibly do the right thing. All I’m saying is let’s take the spotlight off the knobs and put it where it belongs ... on those of us making the effort to help things work smoothly. I’d vote for that. -- Durham Region resident Neil Crone, actor, comic, writer, saves some of his best lines for this column. durhamregion.com7 AP News Advertiser • October 5, 2011NEIL CRONE An arresting new approach to law enforcement RON PIETRONIRO/ BEHIND THE LENS A long hot summer is finally over and now the photo staff can celebrate with the beginning of the high school Fall sports calendar.

The 11 year old took his own life after receiving notice he would have to appear in a courtroom Sept. 28 to testify against a boy accused of assaulting and robbing him last year. Contributing to the profound sadness of the story were other circumstances: Mitchell suffered from mus- cular dystrophy. His mother had died three years earlier. His grieving dad, Craig, mused that Mitchell’s fear of hav- ing to testify about the traumatic robbery may have con- tributed to his decision to commit suicide. And there was speculation that because Mitchell is no longer here to testify, the case against his alleged attack- er would be dropped. But when the case went to court last week, prosecutor Kerri-Ann Kennedy was granted an adjournment. She told Justice Mary Teresa Devlin that negotiations on a possible plea resolution are ongoing. Ms. Kennedy also indicated that if the case goes to trial, she will apply to have Mitchell’s statement to police about the alleged robbery introduced in court. If successful, the application would allow Mitchell’s voice to be heard. Such moves are not unprecedented. Previous state- ments of participants in trials are often presented, some- times as evidence, and sometimes as tools to get at the truth. Lawyers examining or cross-examining witness- es can rely on earlier statements, including information provided to police or evidence given in other court pro- ceedings, to point out inconsistencies in testimony. This happens with regularity. Sometimes prior statements are presented to counter adverse witnesses. In a complex trial earlier this year in Oshawa, the Crown called a number of witnesses who had earlier stated they were directed by the defendant to commit acts of fraud. But the witnesses changed their stories, apparently to exonerate the defendant. The pros- ecutor applied to the court to have their earlier state- ments implicating the defendant heard by the jury. The statements went in, and the defendant was con- victed. The witnesses involved have been charged with perjury. In a trial last fall for three men facing robbery charg- es relating to an Oshawa home invasion, the Crown had a problem; the victim, a young woman, died before the case got to court. In that instance, the jury heard the tes- timony of the woman, recorded a year earlier at a pre- liminary inquiry. The defendants were acquitted of most charges, but the introduction of the taped evidence allowed the matter to proceed. It will be interesting to see what impact Mitchell’s state- ment, if it’s heard, might have at trial. -- Jeff Mitchell is the court reporter for Metroland Media Group Ltd., Durham Region Division 905-683-4550 •65 Harwood Av enue South, Ajax, ON, L1S 2H9 905-683-4550 •65 Harwood Av enue South, Ajax, ON, L1S 2H9 905-683-4550 •65 Harwood Av enue South,905-683-4550 •65 Harwood Av enue South, Ajax, ON, L1S 2H9 905-683-4550 •65 Harwood Av enue South,905-683-4550 •65 Harwood Av enue South, Ajax, ON, L1S 2H9INSIDE AJAX •www.townofajax.com •facebook.com/myajax •youtube.com/thetownofajax PUBLIC MEETING UPCOMING COUNCILCOMMITTEE MEETINGS Minutes and Agendas available online at www.townofajax.com General Government Committee Oct. 6, at 2 p.m. - River Plate Room To wn Hall, 65 Harwood Ave. S.

After failing my first attempt at the police physical testing component, I felt a little lost. Durham Regional Police Constable Mary Carr, the officer who’s been graciously helping me with this challenge, had given me some advice about training, but I was so tired after I finished test one, some of it escaped me. “If you prepare, you can do it,” Const. Carr had told me dur- ing the first test. Where most people fail is in their mind, she added, tapping her temple. “They psych themselves out, they say I can’t do it, I can’t do it -- yes, you can do it,” Const. Carr continued. “You break it down into segments, so you work on the upper body strength, you get over the wall, you have to work on endurance, you have to work on your legs, you have to work on your back, so there’s exercises you can do to prepare.” Earlier in the year, I received a one-month pass to Platinum Fitness in Courtice as part of a silent auction package I bid on for a bottle of scotch; I figured this was as good a time as any to put it to use -- the gym membership, not the scotch. But again, I felt a little lost as I walked into the gym. I ran on the treadmill a bit, did some stair climbing and looked at some of the many arm and leg machines. My one-month gym pass came with a personal training consultation and session, which was where I first met Justin Duguay, the facility’s health centre manager. After talking a bit about what I was planning to get out of my time at the gym, he ran me through a workout to see what we’re working with, which included teaching me how to do a proper squat, making me do the plank -- which I can only describe as a push- up without the pushing, done while leaning on your forearms instead of hands; rowing reps, a little cardio and some exercises similar to the challenges on the police test. At the end, he offered to help train me on my zero-dollar budget. He said he liked the challenge and thinks he can help me pass. He’s done the test before and helped train others as well. “We’re doing a lot of plank exercises for the development of core, we’re doing a lot of squats because it’s very functional and compound -- when you’re doing squats you have weight that needs to be stabilized with your core,” Justin said. “A lot of the exercises we’re doing are more functional com- pound exercises,” he said of the program he has been running me through, and added it’s because of the challenges I noted with the police physical fitness test. “In order to accommodate for that we want nice strong legs, nice strong core so that she can get through these exercises more efficiently and quickly, because that’s what we’re look- ing for is time and power,” he added. Initially, I gave myself six weeks to tune up, but the college support staff strike threw a monkey wrench in my plans -- Const. Carr needs Durham College’s gym to run me through the test. With the strike over now and at the six-week mark in training, it’s game on again and the retest is in sight. Justin’s bumped up my training for the final two weeks, breaking it into four different days: lower body strength training, upper body strength training, plyometrics and conditioning, and cardio -- including at least 20 minutes of running intervals on two of the days. Part way through the training schedule, Const. Carr also telephoned me to see how the training’s going. She gave me a link with some suggested exercises to help prepare for the test. Upon review, Justin pointed out that all the things in there are things we’ve been doing -- the difference being that the training regiment he has given me was more intense. With just a couple weeks to go, I’m in an almost constant state of pain, accompanied by the odd sensation of feeling stronger. I feel dif- ferent -- taller almost, and I’m sure it shows in my stance -- shoulders back more, head high -- sort of like a cop I guess, which is what the test is meant to simulate: some of the challenges an officer could come up against in the field. The test, created by an applicant testing service, was designed to replace the various different tests each police ser- vice previously ran its applicants through. Now, before a can- didate is even considered by a police department, they must have their Ontario Association of Chiefs of Police certificate, which includes the physical test as well as tests in analyti- cal thinking, written communication, scenario response and vision and hearing. There are no weight and height restric- tions anymore -- if you can pass the physical test, you are con- sidered able. All passes are good for three years, except the physical component, which expires after six months because of how drastically someone’s physical ability can change in that time. The test simulates some of the things people would be doing as police officers, such as chasing someone and having to hop a fence or climb stairs during pursuit, Const. Carr said. The arm restraint drill is an action like the one needed to restrain someone during a struggle, while the push-weight machine uses the muscles one would need to push someone out of the way or push through a crowd. “You have to be strong enough to push them out of the way and at a safe distance,” she said. The squat weight machine triggers pulling because you can’t always push someone out of the way, sometimes you have to pull. The body drag -- just that -- dragging an uncon- scious body. Before I take the test for a second time Justin is going to be putting me through his version of the test -- one that he said is actually more intense. He’s confident I’ll pass it no problem -- he’s noticed the physical changes in my appearance and endurance. I hope he’s right. But if I were really trying to be a police officer, that physi- cal test and OACP certificate would just be my ticket to apply. There’s a lot more to do before getting a badge, as you’ll learn in the next part to this story.

All three elements led to a per- fect start in Provincial Women’s Hockey League play on a week- end trip to western Ontario, blanking the Southwest Wildcats 5-0 on Saturday, and getting past the Bluewater Junior Hawks 5-4 on Sunday. “We were expecting to get at least get two points, so getting four was good,” said head coach Wayne McDonald of the produc- tive trip to the Windsor area. Saturday the Lightning scored on three of eight power-play chances and received shutout goaltending from Jackie Roche- fort, who stopped all 17 shots she faced in posting the 5-0 win. Laura Horwood scored twice in the first period, once on the power play, to stake the Light- ning to a 2-0 lead. Taylor Edwards stretched it to 3-0 early in the third, and power play goals by Sara Lanni and Rachael McKin- non rounded out the scoring. “(Southwest) are a physi- cal team so we got a few extra opportunities on our power play and got some pucks to the net,” said McDonald of the success his team enjoyed with the man advantage. The following day against Blue- water, the Lightning didn’t get many shots, but they certainly were efficient, outshot 36-17 but ahead where it counted on the scoreboard at game’s end, 5-4. Kimberley Keller was great in goal in her first start for the Lightning. In addition to being the busier of the two netminders in the game, she was also called on to stop a penalty shot. Despite allowing three power-play goals, the Lightning were good on the penalty kill, especially in the final seven minutes with the game on the line. After a scoreless opening peri- od the teams exchanged goals in the second, before a wild and frantic third period produced seven goals, with the Lightning gaining the upper hand with four of them. Edwards led the way with a pair of goals, with singles by Lindsey McDonald, Emily Kekewich and Horwood, who had three points with a pair of helpers as well. Horwood and Edwards emerged as the leading scor- ers through the weekend games, both with three goals and two assists. Horwood joined the Lightning from the strong Bel- leville Midget AA program last season, regarded as one of the top teams in the province. “We expect some big things from her, and we’re giving her a lot of offensive opportunities,” said McDonald. “She’s on the power play and right now she’s on a roll.” The Lightning will be in Toron- to for the USA/Canada Cup series the weekend of Oct. 14-16, an invitation-only tournament among top U.S. and Canadian teams that adopts the same for- mat as the Ryder Cup of golf, with the winning country declared at the end. The following week- end they head to the States to play university teams at Roches- ter Institute of Technology and Oswego. The Oswego roster will feature a couple of Lightning grads from last season in Carly Marchment and Emily Marks. The Lightning don’t return to league play until Oct. 29 when they travel to Toronto to face the Aeros. While they will be playing over the next couple of weeks, it’s 27 days between league games. “We’ve been so busy in Sep- tember, I don’t mind the break, but I don’t like that long of a break,” noted McDonald. “When we come back we play the Toron- to Aeros, which I assume will be one of the top two teams in the league, so we’ll have to be ready and prepared to play them.” celia klemenz / metroland things that go bump PORT PERRY -- Andrew Murrell, of the Dunbarton High School Spartans, prepared to return a serve from the Port Perry High School Rebels, in a varsity exhibition game played at the Port Perry school. BasketBall Bronze medal for Keane NEVIA, COLOMBIA -- Kalisha Keane will be bringing home a bronze medal from the 2011 FIBA America’s championship in Colombia. Canada defeated Cuba by a score of 59-46 in the bronze medal basketball game, and will now move on to the world Olym- pic qualifier in June for a chance to secure a position in the 2012 Olympics. Canada was relegated to the bronze medal game after losing to Argentina 61-59 on a steal and layup with two seconds remain- ing in the game. Keane, of Ajax, is a graduate of Michigan State. In six games at the tournament, the 22 year old finished with 45 points, sec- ond best on the team with a 7.5 points per game average. Her best games offensively came against Mexico and Paraguay where she scored 15 points in each game. durhamregion.comNews Advertiser • October 5, 201119 AP www.oshawage nerals.comwww.oshawage nerals.comTickets available, to learn more visit 2:05PM -Monday, Oct. 10 th2:05PM -Monday, Oct. 10 th Get your tickets now!

Altshuller, acquired by the Oshawa Gener- als in a pre-season trade with the Belleville Bulls, has given his team a chance to win all four games to date, even if his teammates have only capitalized on half of them. The 17-year-old Nepean native, consid- ered a top goaltending prospect for the next National Hockey League draft, sports a 2.50 goals-against average and .917 save per- centage through his first four games in the league. “There’s great leadership among all the players on our team and they lead by exam- ple. I just try to follow them and try to stay composed throughout the entire game,” said a modest Altshuller, after a 2-1 home-ice loss to the Belleville Bulls Friday. “I really appre- ciate the confidence the coaching staff has in me. It just motivates me to work harder and try to win some games for my team.” He did just that the next night, making 31 saves in Erie Saturday, as the Generals evened their record to 2-2 with a 7-4 victory over the winless Otters. Although pressed into exclusive action by a hamstring injury to fellow goalie Kevin Bailie, Altshuller has looked the part of a number one so far, and he’d like nothing more than to continue to get the bulk of the work. But he also has high praise for the 19-year- old Bailie, who has returned to practice this week, and could be back in the picture by the weekend. “Kevin’s a great guy. Even though he’s out, he’s a great personality, always cheery, gets the guys going. He’s great on and off the ice,” Altshuller said. “I feel that when he comes back, we’re both going to push each other to be our best and it’ll only do good things for the team. The rest is up to the coach.” The coach, Chris DePiero, certainly likes what he’s seen so far of Altshuller, who played Tier 2 in Nepean last season, but also backstopped two teams to gold medals in international play. It’s that kind of ability to play under pres- sure that prompted DePiero to target Alt- shuller over a more experienced keeper. “When you’ve dealt with some of the things he’s had to deal with, winning a gold medal for Canada, winning a gold medal for Ontar- io, and having all these great international things, he’s dealt with pressure situations, so I think it’s just a matter of being more and more comfortable and confident within the environment that he’s in,” said DePiero, praising Altshuller’s composure. “So far, so good.” The team’s main area of concern, therefore, may have shifted from between the pipes to the blue-line, which will likely remain with- out overager Scott Valentine after he signed an entry level contract with the Nashville Predators organization. Valentine was expected to log plenty of ice time for the Generals this season, and be a leader on and off the ice. Without him and Calvin de Haan, who has also graduated to the pro ranks, the Gen- erals are left with a defence of Daniel Mag- gio, Colin Suellentrop, Nick Quinn, Jimmy McDowell, Kyle Hope, who played forward last season, and rookies Josh Brown and Chris Carlisle. “We feel comfortable moving forward with the seven that we have,” said DePiero. “It’s always a fantastic opportunity for other guys to step up, and then if Scott does come back, he comes back. That’s, I guess, the way it goes.” The Generals are in Belleville Wednesday, Sarnia Friday and Windsor Saturday before returning home for a Thanksgiving Day mat- inee, 2:05 p.m. Monday against the Kingston Frontenacs.Watters out with wrist injury BRAMPTON -- A good start to the season has come to an abrupt halt for Ian Watters. The Pickering resident will be sidelined for three months after undergoing surgery on Saturday to repair three severed tendons in his right wrist. The injury occurred during Friday’s 4-3 shootout victory for the Bramp- ton Battalion over the Sarnia Sting. Watters, an overage forward, suffered the injury when he was cut by a skate. “He’s out of surgery and back at his bil- lets, but he’ll have six weeks in a cast and six weeks of rehabilitation,” said Battalion head coach Stan Butler on the team’s website. Watters, who has played left wing and cen- tre, is tied with Sam Carrick for the team lead in goals with four in as many games. Last season Watters had 20-22-42 numbers in 68 games, earning a free agent tryout to the Pittsburgh Penguins rookie camp this fall. durhamregion.comNews Advertiser • October 5, 201120 AP 95% of our management team began their career in a position like this.

Born in the Netherlands on May 9, 1950, Bill Pittens has left us far too soon at the age of 61, after a short, but courageous battle with cancer. Bill leaves behind the love of his life and best friend of 42 years, Marianne (Bennett). He was a loving father to Chris and his wife Joyce, Paula and her husband Bryan, and Charlene and her husband John. Cherished ‘Papa’ to his grandchildren Felicia, Kassie, Taylor, Christina, Emily and Marissa; his great-grandson Mason; and his step-grandchildren Sarah, Vanessa and Jordan. He also leaves behind his brothers and sisters, Rita, Mary, John, Dorothy, Dianne and Tony. He was pre-deceased by his parents Johanna and Martin, and his sisters Maria and Joanne. He also leaves behind many nieces, nephews and cousins. Bill loved to spend his time playing billiards, bowling or fishing. When he wasn’t doing those things, you could usually find him helping someone with something, including the residents of Hillsdale Estates, where he was a dedicated volunteer for several years. Bill loved working with the residents, bringing them joy with his wonderful sense of humour and his incredible smile. Bill was a member of the Connaught Park #2 men’s slo-pitch soft- ball team, and of the Sunday Night Mixed bowling league for over 20 years each. Bill’s showed his tenacity following a tragic accident in 2005, after which he had to learn to bowl left-handed. Bill’s family would like to say thank you to all of their friends and neighbours for all of their support and comfort over the past several months. Special thanks to Jim Treen, Judi MacDonald and Wayne and Carolyne Murray, for their love and support. Bill’s family would also like to thank Dr. Chris Hall for going above and beyond in his care for Bill over the years. Visitation at BARNES MEMORIAL FUNERAL HOME, 5295 Thickson Rd. N. Whitby (905-655-3662) from 2-4 and 7-9 p.m. Thursday October 6th. A funeral service celebrating Bill’s life will be held in the chapel Friday October 7th at 2:00 p.m. Donations in Bill’s memory may be made to Hillsdale Estates (Pub program), or a charity of your choice.
