MOYA DILLON mdillon@durhamregion.com PICKERING -- At least one councillor is pushing to have the city’s new pedestrian bridge renamed in honour of veterans in advance of Remembrance Day. Councillor Bill McLean broached the sub- ject of naming the bridge Veterans Walk- way at a council meeting on Monday, Oct. 17, but a motion to introduce discussion of the proposal was shot down. Although he was invited to submit a motion for the next council meeting, which will be held on Monday, Nov. 21, Coun. McLean is propos- ing a special meeting in an attempt to have the bridge named before Remembrance Day. “What better opportunity is there, to name this bridge Veterans Walkway?” he said. “With Remembrance Day just weeks away, it is imperative that we do everything we can to thank, honour and remember those cur- rently serving, previously served or those who made the ultimate sacrifice.” McLean wants bridge to honour veterans PICKERING MAYOR SAYS THERE SHOULD BE MORE DISCUSSION RYAN PFEIFFER / METROLAND PICKERING -- Work continued on the pedestrian bridge over Hwy. 401 on Oct. 25. A few City councillors are attempting to name the bridge the Veterans’ Walkway, a move that is supported by the Legion.

With a dozen enthusiastic Search Engine People employ- ees attending the Oct. 13 gala at Deer Creek Golf and Banquet Facility, there were big cheers when Search Engine People won the business excellence award in the 10-to-49 employees category and when CEO Jeff Quipp took the business person of the year award. Ajax-based Search Engine People offers search engine opti- mization services for clients -- helping them rank higher on sites such as Google -- and also social media services. “Wow, I really am overwhelmed, it’s a whole lot to take in in one night,” said a happy Mr. Quipp after collecting his awards. In his acceptance speeches, Mr. Quipp talked about his win-win-win phi- losophy which means the goal is always for the client to win, the company to win and the employees to win. “It’s amazing how much better it is for clients when you’re not trying to extort as much money from them as possible,” said Mr. Quipp. He also credited his staff for their hard work and said he learned long ago to recognize his strengths and weaknesses and hire people who could make up for his weaknesses. Mr. Quipp said the company has been growing rapidly, add- ing as many as five employees a month, and is now up to 65 employees. Ajax-based Rand Electric has been in business for 30 years, providing electrical contract services to homes, business and institutions and owner Larry Mittelstaedt also said he was overwhelmed after his company was recognized with the business excellence award in the up-to-nine employees cat- egory. He credited the people he worked with. “We have a group of professional employees who are top notch and without that team of professionals we wouldn’t be a company,” he said. He also credited his company’s clients for Rand Electric’s success. “They keep calling us back and they keep us in busi- ness, it’s as simple as that.” Pickering’s Eco-Tec won both the excellence award in the 50-plus employees category and was recognized in the global business excellence category. The company offers products and services for industrial water treatment and chemical recovery. Although his company serves international clients, during his speech Eco-Tec president Rocky Simmons talked about his commitment to staying in Pickering after several decades headquartered in the city. “Everything is made here and we haven’t moved to China and we intend to stay here,” he said in his acceptance speech. That commitment to the community is a common thread among recipients, said board chairman Jason Cameron. “I think the biggest thing is being involved in the commu- nity, they do business in the community, they’re employees in the community,” he said. Mr. Cameron said the annual awards are a forum to cele- brate the successes of all the nominees. “It goes to show the community in which we do our busi- ness and work is just awesome.” 2011 Ajax-Pickering Board of Trade Business Excellence winners Business Person of the Year: Jeff Quipp (Search Engine People) Business Excellence: One to nine employees -- Rand Electric 10 to 49 employees -- Search Engine People (Honourable mention: That Chocolate Shoppe by the Lake) 50-plus employees -- Eco-Tec Global Business Excellence Award: Eco-Tec Sustainability Champion Award: Jack McInnis (awarded posthumously) Emerging Entrepreneur Award: Beyond Covers Bykart Software Ltd.

AJAX -- Police are investigating a rash of street-level robberies targeting teenagers in Ajax. Suspects are being sought in three inci- dents, including two on Saturday afternoon during which victims were approached by four suspects, shoved, and robbed of prop- erty. The first robbery occurred at about 4 p.m. near the Ajax Community Centre, when a teen was shoved and had a cellphone taken. A few minutes later, two teenagers walking near Centennial and Clements roads were roughed up and robbed, police said. At about 6:30 p.m. a male victim, 16, was approached by two males who asked to borrow his phone. The victim was punched in the jaw and his phone was taken, police said. crime Police probe street-level robberies in Ajax Town has raked in $29.7 million to date AJAX -- Ajax is once again getting a nice chunk of change from OLG Slots at Ajax Downs as the municipality’s quarterly payout for hosting the casino is $1,676,234. To date, Ajax has received more than $29.7 million from the Ontario Lottery and Gaming Corporation (OLG) for serving as the host com- munity for the slots and pay- ments are made quarterly. “The ongoing partner- ship between the Town of Ajax and OLG Slots at Ajax Downs contin- ues to strengthen and enhance our commu- nity,” said Ajax-Pickering MPP Joe Dickson. “Through the sharing of gaming revenue, we are able to directly invest in important local initiatives and priorities that benefit us all.” Overall, OLG paid out $19 million in the last quarter to communities that host slots facilities at racetracks. Each municipality receives five per cent of the gross slots rev- enue for the first 450 machines and two per cent for additional machines. Ajax has about 800 machines. The Town of Ajax has two main uses for slots revenue: infrastructure projects such as roads and trails and for debt reduction on capital projects such as the new operations centre. A small amount is also used for grants, such as the $500,000 the Town will donate over four years to the Ajax-Pickering hospital for a new MRI machine. As well, 20 per cent of the revenue is split even- ly between the track owners and the horse racing indus- try and these two groups have received about $3.59 billion since 1998. The rest of the money goes to the Province of Ontario and in 2011-2012 the Province will allocate $120 million in gaming revenue to support charities through the Ontario Tril- lium Foundation. As well, the Province allocates two per cent of the gross revenues from slots and casinos for problem gambling research, treatment and prevention programs. cha-ching Quarterly slots payout for Ajax is $1.68 million PICKERING -- Four suspects -- one aged 14 -- were apprehended within minutes of an armed robbery at a Pickering bank Wednesday afternoon. Durham cops rushed to the National Bank branch on Liverpool Road just after 12:30 p.m. to find the masked bandits, who were armed, had fled in a waiting vehicle. Information led cops to the parking lot of a Brock Road restaurant. Backed by the tactical support unit, officers undertook a high-risk takedown of the suspects. Subsequent to the arrest officers executed search warrants at locations in Pickering, Ajax and Toronto, seizing a sawed-off shot- gun and a revolver. Facing robbery and weapons charges are Brandon Soje-Murrell, 18, of Reed Drive, Ajax, and three suspects whose identities are protected by the Youth Criminal Jus- tice Act -- two 17-year-olds, from Ajax and Pickering, and a 14-year-old Toronto boy. police Teens busted after Pickering bank robbery durhamregion.comNews Advertiser • October 26, 20114 AP KEEP YO UR LOVED ONESWARM THIS WINTER Pickering/Ajax 1895 Clements Rd.

More graphic images will be on cigarette packages Keith GilliGan kgilligan@durhamregion.com DURHAM -- New, more graphic images will soon be adorning tobacco packag- ing. The federal government recently approved the new images, all with the aim of getting people to butt out. Durham Region health officials sup- port the new pictures, noting the current images have been on packages since 2000 and are getting stale. Anti-smoking images have been “found to be effective” in getting people to either stop smoking or not start- ing, says Shelley Simic, a public health nurse with the Region. “It’s part of a larger smoke- free strategy, which includes not smoking, quitting smok- ing and protecting people from second-hand smoke,” she says. The Smoke Free Ontario Act came into effect in 2006 and includes no smoking in bars, restaurants and the workplace, tobacco items for sale have to be hidden from view, and tobacco can’t be sold to anyone under 19. “All of those are in combina- tion with the new warning labels. They will help people to quit and people not starting, especially youths,” says Ms. Simic. Surveys done by the Region have found “60 per cent of smokers plan on quitting within the next six months. We’re here to help them with their quitting attempt.” Most who try to quit aren’t successful on their first attempt, she notes. Pictures on tobacco products with health warnings were introduced in Canada in 1989. “It was thought to be a best practice. Since then, many other countries have picked it up,” Ms. Simic says. Since the images have been on packag- es for years, there was a need to change the pictures, she adds. “People who smoke know it’s not good for them,” Ms. Simic points out, adding about 20 per cent of Durham residents smoke. Youth who start smoking do it because “they think it’s a good thing or they’re modelling after an adult. They think it’s OK and it’s not OK.” With the new packages, 75 per cent of the front and back will be covered with an image. There will also be information on the inside of the package with mes- sages about the harmful effects of smok- ing. There’s also an 800 number to a smok- ing cessation hotline. “Part of the labelling includes toxic emission statements,” Ms. Simic said. Tobacco manufacturers and import- ers have until March 21, 2012 to transi- tion to the new labels, while retailers will have until June 19, 2012 to ensure all packages on their shelves feature these new labels. In another measure, the federal gov- ernment is moving to reclassify energy drinks and limiting the amount of caf- feine in them. The amount of caffeine will be limit- ed to 180 mg. in a single serving, which is equivalent to the amount found in a medium coffee. The drinks will also be classified as a food product, as they are in the United States and Europe. They have been clas- sified as a natural health product, and that meant producers weren’t required to put nutritional information on the packaging. As a food product, nutritional fact tables will be on each can, along with the ingredients and allergen informa- tion. There will also be a warning advising users not to mix them with alcohol. Manufacturers will have 18 to 24 months to make the changes.

Shelley Simic, Durham Region public health nurse. durhamregion.comNews Advertiser • October 26, 20115 AP Organization offers tips for people to play within their means Parvaneh Pessian ppessian@durhamregion.com DURHAM -- Whether it’s trying their luck at the slot machines or playing Bingo and scratch lottery tickets, the Responsible Gambling Council wants the public to be aware of the risks of gambling. “For a lot of people, gambling is just entertainment but for about 3.4 per cent of the Ontario adult population, it is a moder- ate to severe problem,” says Jennifer Beech, program coordinator for the Responsible Gambling Council. The team dropped by Durham’s casi- nos -- Great Blue Heron in Port Perry and Ajax Slots -- last week to promote Prob- lem Gambling Prevention Week under the motto, No Regrets. “We’d like people to be aware of the risks of gambling, we’d like them to have real- istic expectations about winning and los- ing and we’d like them to know that there’s help available if they need it or know some- one who does.” The Responsible Gambling Council is an independent, non-profit organization that brings awareness to problem gam- bling through research, information and programs. Problem Gambling Prevention Week has been running for the past eight years. “It’s a very important program because while it is entertainment, it’s a game of chance and it can have a negative impact on your life if you’re not careful,” says Ms. Beech. “We always encourage people to set time and money limits and make sure they stick to them, only gamble with money they can afford to lose and not money they should be using for living expenses, take breaks when gambling and never borrow money to gamble.” Problem gambling affects one in 10 fam- ilies in Ontario and at least 331,00 indi- viduals experience moderate to severe problems with gambling. Many spend up to one-fifth of their incomes gambling, according to the organization. In Durham, that adds up to an estimated 14,200 people struggling with the impact on their person- al and work relationships, as well as health and financial issues. The Responsible Gambling Council will travel to other parts of the province over the next few weeks to promote the mes- sage. The team is also introducing the free online Cost2Play Calculator available on their website, www.noregrets.ca. “It’s a great interactive tool for people to use for slots, blackjack and roulette to find out how much gambling is costing them over time,” Ms. Beech adds. The Ontario Problem Gambling Help- line can be reached at 1-888-230-3505. The Ministry of Health and Long-term Care also offers problem gambling treatment locally at Pinewood Centre, 95 Bayly St. W. in Ajax, suite 406.

Feedback Hockey shouldn’t be a ‘blood sport’ To the editor: Re: ‘Rule changes are wrecking hockey’, letter to the editor, durhamregion.com, Oct. 17, 2011. I take serious issue with this letter,. Unfortunately, the contributor’s opin- ions regarding the rules of hockey, how the game should be played, and sugges- tions to parents that their offspring should be restricted to participating in a non-con- tact league to ensure their safety epitomize many of the things that are grossly wrong with today’s attitudes toward minor hock- ey, not to mention the NHL version. Canadians are becoming increasing- ly weary of media reports of yet another young person being seriously injured, per- haps permanently, at the hands of anoth- er youngster playing hockey as though it is a blood sport. Further, there are the esca- lating costs to families and the health care system to rehabilitate seriously injured children, for instance those dealing with concussion and head trauma. And that is exactly what they are -- children, and a very significant part of our collective future. Period. So, for those adults who want blood sport I recommend you look elsewhere for your entertainment. For those players who want to bash heads, choose another ‘sport’ where that behaviour is tolerated. For those who want to play hockey the way it is intended, keep pressuring your local league executives, the federal minister of sport and the Canadian Hockey Associa- tion for strict rules and strict enforcement. You’ll have a better, safer, more enjoyable sport, both for the players and the specta- tors. Patrick Wright Ajax Waste More plastics should be eligible for Blue Box To the editor: Re: ‘Trash troubles: Filling up our landfills with recyclables’, durhamregion.com, Oct. 19. Your remark that ‘The biggest offender is plastic,’ triggered in my mind this question: Why are clear and black plastic clam-shell type plastics ineligible for inclusion in the blue box in Durham? I diligently sort my Blue Box recyclables, yet I have to deposit probably double the amount of plastic into the garbage bag because of the stringent rules laid down by the Durham recycling program. Plastic containers of various shapes and sizes are prolific, yet only a few, and typi- cally the smaller types, are recyclable under our program. I buy a pre-cooked chicken, pre-washed salad, a cake for a special occa- sion, some cherry tomatoes or blueberries, to mention but a few. It doesn't matter if I shop at Sobeys, Walmart, Loblaws or any- where else, they're all in plastic containers and none of these are recyclable. By the way, these tend to be the largest sized plastics you'll encounter. It's time the Durham recyclables pro- gram got real. If we are serious about pull- ing plastic from the landfills, Durham must be less picky about the shape and colour of the container. Keith Sarre Ajax Pedestrian bridge Why oppose councillor’s good suggestion? To the editor: I learned this week that Pickering Coun- cillor Bill McLean suggested naming the new pedestrian bridge over Hwy. 401 in Pickering after the Canadian heroes who have sacrificed their lives for peace. Well, why not?What’s wrong with the City coun- cil? Are they a bunch of spoiled brats who are mad because they didn’t think of that idea? If it wasn’t for those who fight for our freedom every day where would we be? Where would they be? Remember, Nov. 11 is coming up fast. These same council- lors will show up at the Remembrance Day Parade. Shame on you. I hope there will be a petition because I know a lot of people who will sign it.

The 40-year-old single mother is cur- rently undergoing a second round of can- cer treatment after it spread following an initial diagnosis in 2005. A mastectomy, chemotherapy and radi- ation treatments gave her a clean bill of health until 2009, when cancer cells were once again detected. It had spread to her lungs and liver. Today, the prognosis is grim. But Ms. Czop has shown immeasurable courage in facing the disease, in living a life busy with the raising of two teenaged daugh- ters, in volunteering in her community, in continuing to pursue a vocation of work- ing with children. Ms. Czop has agreed to allow Metroland Media Group’s Durham Region Division to follow her journey. We’ll be with her as she navigates the health care system, as she interacts with her family and commu- nity. We’ll explore her feelings, her fears and her hopes. The incredible courage required to not only face such a terrible illness, but to share it with others, complete strangers in the vast majority of cases, is an inspira- tion. We encourage residents across Durham Region to join Ms. Czop, through the lens- es and words of Metroland Media Group Ltd.’s Durham Region Division, on this journey. You’ll gain intimate insight into the life and challenges faced by Ms. Czop; you’ll learn about some of the advances in med- icine used to treat cancer; you’ll learn about courage and community, life and living, achievement and awareness. A cure for most cancers remains elusive and the disease has touched, in some way or another, too many Durham Region resi- dents. By allowing a glimpse into the chal- lenges she faces, Ms. Czop also affords us the opportunity to learn more about can- cer and the toll it takes on individuals, families and communities. It provides insight into the state of our health care system, the supports that exist in the community and the strength of character one must discover to face can- cer head on. Join us as we join Ms. Czop on her jour- ney. -- Metroland Media Group Ltd., Durham Region Division Living in an old Victorian home for a couple of decades, one forgets that dur- ing that period certain technological advancements in home construction may have come to the fore. Things like indoor plumbing, electricity and a remarkable bit of witchcraft called ‘insulation’ are chang- ing the way most humans live. Only a few months into a new home, and just weeks into the cooler weather, I am astonished, daily, by how delightfully warm this new place is and, incidentally, how frigid the old place was. As of this writing, a day where the gun- metal sky is threatening snow and the leaves are falling faster than a Milli Vanilli single, I am comfortably ensconced at the keyboard in shorts, T-shirt and bare feet. In the old place, by this time, I’d be lum- bering around the house looking like a member of the Franklin expedition, stok- ing the wood stove to red hot just to melt the ice in the dog’s water dish. I’d no soon- er get the feeling back in my fingers when I’d have to go upstairs and chisel the kids out of bed. I have to tell you, I love walking around my house barefoot. The juxtaposition of standing at the window, clad only in boxer shorts, while a sub-zero gale howls impo- tently on the other side of the glass, is so novel it’s intoxicating. I’m sure my neigh- bours and passersby find it less so, but you get my point. The thing is, I find clothes, in general, a bit of an encumbrance and were it not for certain bylaws and a pending court injunc- tion, I suspect I might be naked most of the time. I don’t mean to imply I’m any- thing like a nudist. That title presupposes pleasure taken in the company of other undressed people. I’m not anywhere close to that yet. A resort full of silicone breasted super- models is one thing; volleyball with naked German octogenarians is quite another. And there’s not enough Schnapps in the world to get me to play lawn darts without pants on. Still, I feel very natural in my new home. I didn’t realize how much of the real me was being smothered under layers of wool in the old house. I also feel much healthi- er. Without the threat of hypothermia I no longer need to ingest as many calories. The weight’s just falling off of me. I’m a shadow of my former self. Thankfully, my original self was pretty hefty. I have to say I’m breathing much better too. As much as I loved the warmth of the stove and the smell of wood smoke, they’ve yet to invent the stove that didn’t smoke like hell when you opened it to feed it more wood. Anoth- er few years in that house and I’d have had the lungs of a Welsh coal miner. But the coup de grace is that when my 50-year-old bladder awakens me in the wee hours of the night I no longer face a long, cold trudge to the john. In the old place, to save a little money, we used to turn the furnace down to just above ‘life support’ during the evening hours. This may sound drastic but it was actu- ally quite conducive to sleep. Science has proven that humans get very drowsy prior to freezing to death. But the 3 a.m. trek down the hall to the loo was like sum- miting K2 in a whiteout. Lord, that was unpleasant. Now, I roll out of bed, wander across warm pine planks and pee in the closet. Well, at least the cold woke me up. -- Durham resident Neil Crone, actor, comic, writer, saves some of his best lines for his column. durhamregion.com7 AP News Advertiser • October 26, 2011HOT TOPICS: All right Jen!

Although this shot is different, what a shot it would have been from the other side of the ice. Just cuz you say it, don’t make it so Stating that something is a fact, with- out first checking that the fact is accurate, undermines your credibility in an argu- ment. That’s my opinion.

It worries me that so many people believe they can say, without fear of repercussion, whatever they want on their Facebook page, or in a letter to the editor, or as a comment on an online story, under the excuse that ‘it’s my opinion and I’m entitled to it’. We all have hundreds of opinions and they make for great debates. ‘Tutti-frutti ice cream makes me feel so giddy it’s as if I’d been drinking’ is an opin- ion. ‘Tutti-frutti ice cream made by Yum Yum Foods is laced with alcohol and that’s why it makes me feel giddy’ is an unsub- stantiated claim, stated as fact. The fictitious Yum Yum Foods might claim they were defamed and sue the pants off you. Two years ago we ran a column from law- yer Tony Wong to shed light on the growing problem of defamation in social media plat- forms. Here’s what he wrote: “Defamation, which includes both libel (written) and slander (spoken), is any com- munication about a person or company that injures the reputation of that person or com- pany. The threshold of what is “defamatory” is low. Essentially, anything publicly post- ed on the Internet that would cause a rea- sonable person to think less of the subject of the post is likely defamatory. To say that Jane Doe is a thief, is dishonest, is incompe- tent or has a sexually transmitted disease is likely defamatory. To say without proof that the apartment a company is managing con- tains mould, that a company is using child workers, or is engaging in tax evasion is like- ly defamatory.” Given the popularity of Facebook, I believe it’s only a matter of time before online defa- mation suits start to fill our court dockets.

JOANNE BURGHARDT - EDITOR-IN-CHIEF durhamregion.comNews Advertiser • October 26, 20118 P Hopes of turning former residence into public building deemed too costly Moya Dillon mdillon@durhamregion.com PICKERING -- A former residence on Pick- ering’s western spit will likely be demol- ished after a feasibility report concluded turning the building into a public facility would be too costly. At a council meeting on Oct. 17, council received a memo from the Waterfront Co- ordinating Committee recommending it consider demolishing the former Norman Scudellari residence at 1089 Beachpoint Promenade, which was purchased jointly by Pickering and the Toronto and Region Conservation Authority in 1999. Upon learning that the TRCA had applied for a demolition permit for the property in May 2010, councillors quickly moved to stall any action in the hopes of repurposing the facility for community use. A feasibil- ity report on the proposal was conducted and concluded the cost to rehabilitate the structure would be more than $600,000. In response, staff recommended council not pursue any rehabilitation of the building. Councillor Jennifer O’Connell disagreed with the conclusions, calling the demoli- tion a waste of taxpayers’ money. “I have serious concerns with this,” Coun. O’Connell said. “We could be passing up and tearing down a building that the tax- payers of this city paid for in 1999.” The property was purchased in an attempt to complete acquisition of the western spit in order to preserve the envi- ronmentally sensitive heritage lands locat- ed there. When the property was pur- chased, the current resident, Mr. Scudel- lari, was allowed to remain on the prop- erty, which he eventually vacated in July 2010. “We paid $200,000 for a resident to live in this facility and now when we finally take ownership we’re going to tear it down,” Coun. O’Connell continued. “I am ada- mantly opposed, this is a waste of taxpayer money.” Mayor Dave Ryan cautioned that the building was not the purpose of the joint purchase, which was aimed at preserving the land. “We did not spend $200,000 for this building, we spent $200,000 for a piece of property that happened to have a building on it,” Mayor Ryan explained. “The purpose of this purchase was to complete the acquisition of the west- ern spit, and the resident was allowed to stay there out of compassion. We’ve had numerous reports from staff that it would not be reasonable to invest $600,000, that it would in fact be cheaper to knock it down and put something else up.” Councillor Doug Dickerson, who was ini- tially opposed to any demolition when the information came before council in 2010, explained that while he still held reserva- tions, he was willing to concur with the Waterfront Co-ordinating Committee in order to move on to more significant proj- ects such as the possibility of a new har- bour entrance. “Prior to purchase I thought it was abun- dantly clear that there would be an oppor- tunity for the building to go into public usage,” he explained. “If the TRCA had said at that time they were never going to support it, I wouldn’t have supported the City expenditure at that time. But having said that, it’s time to move ahead. We want to do the harbour entrance and we can’t allow the property here to stand in the way, if we can do har- bour entrance improvements then that gives us an opportunity to have maybe some more necessities in the area such as washrooms or meeting rooms.” Council voted to endorse the motion from the Waterfront Co-ordinating Com- mittee, which listed several reasons coun- cil should consider demolition, including the cost to bring municipal water to the property, problems with access to the cur- rent location, additional harbour costs if docking is required, high renovation costs, lack of interest from outside agencies for use of the facility, and vandalism concerns due to the remote location of the building. city Pickering council gives up on controversial waterfront property jason liebregts / MetrolanD PICKERING -- The former Scudellari residence at 1083 Beachpoint Promenade, the last remaining residence on Pickering’s western spit lands, will likely be demolished after a report looking at converting the residence to a community facility found the project would be too costly. Jim Corbitt, president of Pickering Legion Branch 606, said he supports the idea of naming the bridge, noting the location would make it particularly fitting. “The Legion thinks it’s a great idea, espe- cially since it goes right across the Highway of Heroes,” Mr. Corbitt explained. “It’s right near the Liverpool Road bridge and we’ve stood on that bridge many times to pay tribute during repatriations so I think this is very appropriate.” Mayor Dave Ryan said more discussion is needed before a decision is made. “I think this is a wonderful idea and I’m not opposed to it, but I think many people may have ideas for naming the bridge,” he explained, noting he’s received other sug- gestions from the community, including calling it the Bicentennial Bridge to mark the city’s 200th year. “I don’t see the need for a special council meeting, there’s no urgency here,” he con- tinued. “I think the issue deserves a broad- er discussion with council and the com- munity at large.” He also pointed out that because the bridge does not belong to the city, it would be unlikely any naming could be complet- ed before Remembrance Day even with a council declaration. “This bridge is not ours, it belongs to Metrolinx,” Mayor Ryan explained. “The best we can do is to request that Metrolinx consider naming it something. Even then that request has to go off to another body for consideration, which could take many months. My question here is, what’s the rush?” GO Transit currently has no set process for naming infrastructure, but indicated it would be willing to work with the City. “Since there is no formal process for nam- ing GO Transit structures or bridges at this time, we look forward to sitting down with officials in Pickering and discussing this further,” said Malon Edwards, a spokesman for Metrolinx GO Transit. “We are also happy to develop a naming process that will fit the needs of the com- munity, stakeholders and local govern- ment. We do realize that local communi- ties and government officials may want to provide suggestions on the names and we are happy to work with them.” In order to call a special meeting Coun. McLean needs to present a petition sup- ported by at least four members of council. Currently, councillors Jennifer O’Connell and Peter Rodrigues have signed on in sup- port of calling a special meeting. The pedestrian bridge is expected to be completed and ready for use by late November or early December.

Denise Czop’s priorities have changed to make the most of the time she has PARVANEH PESSIAN ppessian@durhamregion.com Denise Czop is a 40-year-old single mother of two living in Oshawa. She spends her days working as a supply educa- tion assistant at Durham schools, volunteering in the com- munity, and battling breast cancer. In Living with Cancer, what will become a monthly series, we’ll be following Ms. Czop along her journey. DURHAM -- There was a time when Denise Czop dreaded turning 40. Married at age 24, she gave birth to two babies shortly after, spending most of her youth immersed in a vision of the per- fect family. Time flew by as she made sure her daughters, Brittni, 14, and Courtney, 13, grew up with the best she and their father could provide. Today, as she lives with the dark shadow of cancer hanging over her, following a grim diagnosis two years ago, the once ominous concept of aging is slowly slipping out of her reach. “I remember thinking I don’t ever want to get to here,” she says, a wave of warm contentment washing over her face as she glances around a room full of her family and friends, gathered to cele- brate her 40th birthday this month. “But now it’s like, you know what? I want 40. I want to be able to say I made here because you don’t know when you’re not going to get any fur- ther.” Born in Scarborough on Oct. 4, 1971, Ms. Czop moved to the south part of Oshawa with her family when she was just three, and she’s never left. Her giving nature and love for children drew her toward a career in teaching and she often volunteered at her daughters’ school, Dr. C.F. Cannon, before getting a job as a daycare teacher. Ms. Czop’s first encounter with cancer came in July 2005 while her decade-long marriage was falling apart. “It was really tough because at the same time that I was diagnosed, my ex walked out on us pretty much within the same day and I was left in a house with an $1,800 mortgage and I was only working part-time,” she says, referring to that period as a crucial turning point. “The first diagnosis woke me up and made me realize that there was more to life outside of being married.” Moving in with her parents, Don and Rosemary Doucett, helped stabilize her personal life while her health took a turn for the worse. From Septem- ber 2005 to March 2006, she under- went sev- eral rounds of chemotherapy and 25 radiation treatments. What followed was a paralyzing state of depression as the gravity of her situation became increasingly difficult to stom- ach. “There were days when I couldn’t eat and I couldn’t do anything,” recalls Ms. Czop. “I had a friend who had been diagnosed a few years before that who would come over and literally spoon-feed me Jello just to get something into me. It was like, I just don’t want to be doing this.” Gathering strength from her support system, which grew after attending Hearth Place Cancer Support Centre in Oshawa, Ms. Czop watched the fragmented pieces of her life fall together again. She moved into her own place in Oshawa with her girls, just a short walk from her parents’ home, and got a job as an educational assistant -- a role she still holds on a supply basis. Ms. Czop underwent a mastec- tomy to remove the tumour from her right breast in 2005 and went under the knife again, two years later, for reconstruction surgery. By then, the doctors were con- vinced that the cancer was out of her system but she continued to go for check-ups every six months. “The type of cancer that I had was one of the easiest cured breast cancers so they weren’t concerned. We just went about life.” In April 2009, pains in her rib cage sent her back to the doc- tor to undergo a series of tests. She learned then that the dis- ease had returned, this time metastasizing to her liver and lungs. “It’s come back and now it’s metastatic, which just means breast cancer that’s spread, so it’s still breast cancer but it’s just in my lungs and my liver now,” says Ms. Czop. “Once it’s metastatic, they can never completely cure it and mine, you also can’t operate on.” Within two weeks, Ms. Czop was back on chemo and her per- spective on life has never been the same. “My goal when I first left my ex and moved in with my par- ents was to save up for a house and start over with the three of us,” she says. “When I was re-diagnosed, that was the first time that things really changed and that was no longer important to me. It was more saving money for the girls for their future, having holidays and enjoying life.” Intent on sidestepping the negativity that consumed her after the first diagnosis, Ms. Czop is actively involved in her community. She volunteers for various causes, such as chil- dren’s programs through Hearth Place, and Feed the Need in Dur- ham. She says she no longer fears the future, instead pouring her ener- gy into making the most of the time she has. The past few years have been filled with adventures with her daughters, trying everything from ziplining and hang gliding to rid- ing in a hot air balloon in New Mexico. There have also been the ups and downs of various chemo treat- ments -- some temporarily effec- tive, others not at all -- but she remains hopeful. “One of them, I had 30 pounds of fluid on me and my legs were huge so we switched and tried some pills, which I’m on now but we don’t know if this one is working yet,” she says. “So far, the other two didn’t work at all and the tumours unfortunately kept growing. “We just take it one day at a time and hope that we find something that’s going to work for a little bit longer.” Page 6 - Today’s editorial Reporter Parvaneh Pessian covers the town of Whitby for Metroland Media Group’s Durham Division News Advertiser • October 26, 201110 AP Living with cancer durhamregion.comCanc e rLiving with RON PIETRONIRO / METROLAND OSHAWA -- ‘This Week’ is following Oshawa resident Denise Czop on her journey as she battles cancer.

It was enhanced with designs added by a child. Seeing the special car served as a prompt for Sharlene. She visited DisneyJunior.ca and entered the date, time and the series in which she spotted the creatively-decorated vehicle. At the end of the summer, the Pickering resident was notified that her name had been drawn for the grand prize of a 2012 To yota Sienna. In October, she was given the keys to her new minivan and drove it home from nearby Pickering Toyota. “When I found that I won I couldn’t believe it,” Sharlene said.“Now that the reality has sunk in and I am able to get behind the wheel of this great vehicle I couldn’t be more excited.We’re going to put it to very good use.” For Disney Junior’s “Sienna Summer” contest, parents and their children were invited to go to DisneyJunior.ca in July to customize the award-winning Toyota Sienna using creative elements from their favourite Disney Junior shows.Then, on both the English and French-language Disney Junior networks, a new design, accompanied by the name of the child who submitted it, was aired each day between August 1 and 21 on Disney Junior during high-profile preschool programs such as Mickey Mouse Clubhouse, Jake and the Never Land Pirates, and Stella and Sam. Also, as part of the contest, ten Disney Junior Mom Bloggers road-tested the Sienna and blogged about how cool and stylish the minivan is, and why the Sienna deserved the numerous awards and accolades it has garnered, including: • 2011 ecoENERGY Vehicle Award winner for the most fuel-efficient minivan •“To p Safety Pick” award winner by the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS) •To p pick in the midsize van category of the J.D.

EXTENDED FACTORY WARRANTY INCLUDED - 30 DAY EXCHANGE - FULL HYUNDAI FACTORY INSPECTIONS & RECONDITIONING Event collects toys and food for holiday drive in lieu of fines Moya Dillon mdillon@durhamregion.com PICKERING -- Drivers can make some- thing positive out of parking offences dur- ing the upcoming holiday season with the Toys for Tickets/Food for fines promo- tion. This will be the third year of the event, which allows drivers to donate toys or food in lieu of fines when they get parking tickets in Pickering. “It’s just a worthwhile program that extends the holiday spirit,” said Kim Thompson, manager of municipal law enforcement services for Pickering, which implemented the program in 2009. “It’s something that was being done at the time in Oshawa and Kingston and we thought it would be something worth- while to pursue, and it’s been great. It turned out to be a really positive experi- ence for people over the holiday season.” This year the program will be expand- ed to two weeks, with tickets handed out between Thursday, Dec. 1 and Friday, Dec. 16 eligible to be paid with donations. Donations of food and toys will be accept- ed on Thursday, Dec. 15 and Friday, Dec. 16. A receipt for the donation must be pre- sented to verify that the amount meets or exceeds the original fine. “The turnout really tends to depend on the number of tickets we issue,” Ms. Thompson explained, noting in 2009 a snowstorm resulted in a high number of parking tickets, leading to more than $2,000 in donations. In 2010 the event raised significantly less with just under $900. The extended time period is aimed at allowing more ticketed drivers to participate. “As long as people have the opportunity to participate, they’re usually very respon- sive,” she explained. “Most times people’s donations exceed their fine amount.” All donations collected go to the Dur- ham Regional Police Food and Toy Drive. Tickets for parking in a disabled parking space are not eligible for the program. At an executive committee meeting on Oct. 11 councillors voted to approve the recommendation to implement the extended program. city Pickering drivers can celebrate holiday spirit with Toys for Tickets durhamregion.comNews Advertiser • October 26, 201116 AP 2010 MAZDA 3 GT $18,995 $149 BI-WEEKLY 4.99% FOR 84 MTHS STK# P2554A 2008 MAZDA 3 GX $11,995 $99 BI-WEEKLY 4.99% FOR 72 MTHS STK# K570A 2008MAZDA 5 GT $16,995 $149 BI-WEEKLY 4.99% FOR 72 MTHS STK# K797A 2008MAZDA TRIBUTE GT $18,995 $189 BI-WEEKLY 4.99% FOR 60 MTHS STK# P2078 2005MAZDA TRIBUTE $8,999 CASHPRICE STK# K294A 2011 CX-9 GS $42,795 $319 BI-WEEKLY 4.99% FOR 84 MTHSLUXURYPACKAGE, DVD STK# P2417 2007 CX-9 GT $20,995 $199 BI-WEEKLY 4.99% FOR 60 MTHS STK# P2469 2011 CX-9 GT $46,888 $349 BI-WEEKLY 4.99% FOR 84 MTHS STK# P2557 2008 CX-7 GT $20,995 $199 BI-WEEKLY 4.99% FOR 72 MTHS STK# K377A 2007 CX-7 GS $19,995 $189 BI-WEEKLY 4.99% FOR 60 MTHS STK# P2128 2008 HONDA CIVIC LX $129 BI-WEEKLY 4.99% FOR 72 MTHS STK# P2531A 2007 V.W JETTA CITY $13,995 $140 BI-WEEKLY 4.99% FOR 60 MTHS STK# K15A 2006 HONDA CIVIC COUPE $99 BI-WEEKLY 4.99% FOR 60 MTHS STK# P2549 2006 KIA SORRENTO LX $10,995 $119 BI-WEEKLY 4.99% FOR 60 MTHS STK# K506A 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY $13,995 $140 BI-WEEKLY 4.99% FOR 60 MTHS STK# P771A 2010FORD ESCAPEV6 $21,995 $169 BI-WEEKLY 4.99% FOR 84 MTHS STK# K4A 2007CHRYSLER PA CIFICA $10,995 $219 BI-WEEKLY 4.99% FOR 60 MTHS STK# J1517A 2007MAZDA B4000 $14,995 $149 BI-WEEKLY 4.99% FOR 60 MTHS STK# P2517 2006CHEVY EQUINOX $12,995 $219 BI-WEEKLY 4.99% FOR 48 MTHS STK# L45A 2006CADILLAC CTS $11,995 $149 BI-WEEKLY 4.99% FOR 48 MTHS STK# J639A ALL OUR CARSCOMEWITH ✓110 POINT INSPECTION ✓FULLY CERTIFIED ✓CAR PROOFUSED CAR CENTRE USED CAR CENTRE PRESENTS 2011 8 Consecutive Years2003-2010 2011 M{ZD{2 2011 Tribute Well equipped from $15,695.

Durham Regional Police Det. Randy Norton JeFF MiTcHell jmitchell@durhamregion.com OSHAWA -- A Whitby gui- tar teacher accused of sexually assaulting a teenaged student has been released on $10,000 bail. A haggard-looking Richard James Nimmo, 50, sat hunched forward, staring at the floor of the prison- er’s dock as allegations against him were read in an Oshawa bail court Monday morning. At the conclusion of the hearing the Crown consented to Mr. Nim- mo’s release, with his wife acting as surety. Evidence read into the record is subject to a publication ban. Court-imposed conditions include a restriction on computer use and contact with young peo- ple. Mr. Nimmo must remain at his home, with a few exceptions, unless he’s accompanied by his surety. Durham police announced Mr. Nimmo’s arrest last Friday, saying it came after a month-long inves- tigation prompted by a teenaged girl’s allegation she’d been sexually assaulted. Police also alleged Mr. Nimmo used a false online identity to communicate with the girl. Durham police continue to inves- tigate Mr. Nimmo, who taught classes at his home in south Whitby and also visited students’ homes, said Detective Randy Norton of the child exploitation unit. “If anybody has had any inappro- priate contact or other concerns, we want them to please contact us,” Det. Norton said Friday, after Mr. Nimmo, 50, was ordered detained. “The girl who came forward was a previous student of his,” Det. Nor- ton said. The girl also told police she’d been involved in an online friendship with someone she at first thought was a girl. She’d come to believe the friend was fictitious, police said. Cops searched a home on Whitby Shores Greenway Thursday, seiz- ing eight computers. An examina- tion of that equipment is ongoing, and it’s alleged the accused man used the false screen name Maddy Dzelinkow-Holland. Police are hoping to hear from anyone who may have had online contact with someone using that name, Det. Norton said. Mr. Nimmo is charged with sexual assault, sexual exploitation luring, invitation to sexual touching, and possession of child pornography. He’s due back in court Nov. 14.

So you had better search through your attics and garages, go through your lock boxes and jewellery, because you may be sitting on a small fortune and not even know it!Roadshow experts are here to examine all your an- tiques, collectibles, gold and silver. During a show near Toronto, a woman came in with a jewellery box that she had just inherited from her late aunt.“I don’t wear jewellery,” explained Barbara Engles, “so it was an easy decision to come down to the Roadshow to sell it”.She was very excited when she was able to walk away with a cheque for over $2,100 for jewellery she was never going to wear anyway. Expert Elijah Gold explains,“We have no- ticed a substantial increase in the amount of precious metals such as gold and silver coming to the Roadshow,which makes sense considering how high it’s currently trading at.He added,“The Roadshow is great because it puts money in people’s pockets, especially during such hard times. Lots of items that are just sitting around collecting dust in basements and jewel- lery boxes can be exchanged for money, on the spot!” At another Roadshow event, a woman, named Mira Kovalchek, walked in with a tin full of hundreds of old coins that were given to her as a young child by her grand- the Roadshow and see what he had given her.She was ecstatic to learn she had coins dating back to the late 1800’s,some of which were extremely rare.Roadshow consultant Perry Bruce explains “We had uncovered an 1871 QueenVictoria 50 Cent piece, valued at over $2,000!! She had a nice assortment of coins that were not rare dates, but she was able to sell them for their silver content”.She explains,“I never would have thought that my old tin afford to renovate my kitchen”. Perry Bruce continued,“Canadian coins prior to 1967, and American coins prior to 1964 are all made with silver,and we have noticed a large increase of customers coming to the Roadshow with coins and cashing them in for their silver value”. Experts at the Roadshow will evaluate and examine your items, FREE OF CHARGE, as well as educate you on them.The Roadshow sees hundreds of people during a one week event,and they have been travelling across Canada to different cities and towns, searching for your forgotten treasures.

Other than that, the Ajax resident was all smiles after returning with three medals she earned as a member of the Canadian rhythmic gymnastics team. The group got the country off to a promising start the opening weekend of the Games in Gua- dalajara, Mexico, reaching the podium with a sil- ver medal performance in the group all around, where all of the countries performed one group ball routine, and then a group hoop/ribbon rou- tine, with the highest combined scores deciding the outcome. The following day they were back in the medals with a bronze in the group ball, then closed out the competition with a silver on day three of their events in the group hoop/rib- bon routine, where two members of the team have hoops and three have ribbons. The experience of competing in a prestigious competition with multiple sports, and the suc- cess of her team, wasn’t lost on the 17 year old. “It was my first Games with all the athletes. It was so amazing,” she said after returning home last week. “We’re not used to having all the ath- letes with us. Mostly it’s just rhythmic gym- nastics where we go to World Cups and World Championships.” Unfortunately, because of her team’s sched- ule competing three days in a row, then having to leave within 48 hours of her last event, Landry wasn’t able to take advantage of the opportunity by visiting other venues. Landry has come a long way since joining her school’s recreational program in Grade 2 or 3, now part of the Canadian team that travels all over the world for international competitions. Prior to the Pan American Games she was in Spain and Bulgaria training for two and a half months. When the team returned home, there was little time to practice prior to departing for Mexico, something she felt hurt the team despite the three medals. “It could have been better,” she said of the per- formance of the Canadian team. “We needed a little more preparation. We came back from being away two and a half months, and right away after Worlds our coaches gave us a break because we needed one. But we didn’t have enough time to prepare after the break.” The Grade 12 student at Ecole St. Charles-Gar- nier in Whitby has been able to juggle her stud- ies and competition schedule, earning credits for her time spent in the gym, as well as having to work through correspondence. The next phase of her training will begin in early November, with an eye towards next sum- mer’s Olympic Games in England. Canada has already qualified a team through its result at the World Championships in September, and have a trial in London, England before the final team is named in January. It’s a team Landry wants to be named to. Jason LieBreGts / metroLand PICKERING -- Alexandra Landry won three medals in rhythmic gymnastics at the Pan American Games in Mexico. GoLf Bennett goes down under for golf tournament AUSTRALIA -- There was more than just the time change that Meghan Ben- nett had to adjust to in order to compete at the Srixon International Junior Clas- sic hosted by the Jack Newton Founda- tion at Maitland Golf Club in Maitland, NSW, Australia. In addition to the time change and soft and wet conditions on the course, the Canadian contingent had to deal with the conversion of metres to yards. It took a few rounds, but eventually they adapted. Bennett, 16, from Pickering, shot rounds of 79, 79, 87, 79, for a 324 total. The girls’ championship was won by Minjee Lee of Australia, who fired a four round total of 277. Bennett was one of four junior golf- ers to represent Canada in the tourna- ment from the Maple Leaf Junior Golf Tour. Players from the United States, New Zealand, Korea and Japan also took part in the 72-hole tournament. BasKetBaLL Pre-season comes to end in ajax Ladies League AJAX -- In the final pre-season tune- up for the Ajax Ladies Recreational Basketball League, Portly Piper showed they are ready to get on with the regular season, drubbing the Coyotes 42-16. The Coyotes managed only one basket from the field, a three-pointer from Orange Bugayong, and a single on a foul shot from Margorie Bates in the first half. The second half saw Joanne Beach come alive to lead the Coyotes with eight points on the night. Piper’s Michelle Gujol (nine points) matched Beach’s second-half effort and the Coy- otes couldn’t contain Pamela Wilkinson. Wilkinson, already in mid-season form, led the charge by the Portly Piper with 15 points. The second game saw the Snow- shoe Rabbits lead the Green Forest Fox on a merry chase, hopping out to a 13-8 first-half lead. The Fox caught up to its prey in the second, but the shoot- ing of the Rabbits’ Michelle Korte (10 points) was enough to keep the Fox at bay. Green Forest Fox Lucrishua Grant led all scorers on the night with 16. Grant showed her scoring touch from inside and out, hitting shots from inside and outside the arc. She had the opportunity for more, but shot only 50 per cent from the line. The game ended in a 24-24 draw. durhamregion.comNews Advertiser • October 26, 201126 AP Real Estate YourLocal Advertising Consu Delivered directly to your door or On-line atwww.durhamregion.com Thinking of Buying or Selling your HOME? •EachWednesday YourLocal RealEstateshowcases the most up-to-date Homes For Sale, featuring fresh new listings. •Consult with any one of the reputable Realtors ® featured within this section.

Accentuating Positive DRIVE S A F E 123456 7 8 9 the OntariO JuniOr HOckey League Pickering Panthers trying to get better Make trade for goaltender that should help, says head coach Brad keLLy bkelly@durhamregion.com PICKERING -- Since the beginning of the Ontario Junior Hockey League sea- son, Pickering Panthers head coach Mike Galati predicted the first 15 games of the season for his club would be difficult. Boy, was he bang on. The Panthers reached that 15-game plateau over the weekend, and with it came a couple of more losses, falling 6-2 to Toron- to Lakeshore on home ice Friday night, followed by a 4-3 setback in North York on Sunday afternoon. It stretched their losing streak to six games in a row, leav- ing them with a record of 2-12-1, last place in the South Division, and five points back of sixth place Mississauga. Still, with 34 games remaining in the regu- lar season, Galati feels his players aren’t quitting. “I think they’re OK,” he said. They’re not ecstatic. Obviously we wish we were in a better spot. “They know we’re try- ing to make things better. I think that’s what’s keeping them going here. They see that we care and we want this team to be the best it can be and they know we are doing what we can.” To that extent, the team made a pair of trades over the weekend to bring in a couple of fresh faces. Andrew McCann, who arrived just a cou- ple of hours prior to Sun- day’s matinee game, was acquired from Orange- ville, garnering an assist in his debut. The other move involved sending Kyle McLaughlin, who was obtained in an earlier trade but refused to report to the Panthers, to Markham in exchange for goaltender Spencer Bacon. Bacon made his debut in North York on Sun- day, and despite the loss, stopped 42 of the 46 shots he faced. The six-foot-five, 210 pound netminder will be looked upon to solidify a position that has been a source of frustration. “I think he’s someone who will help us,” said Galati. “He had a good game (Sunday). I don’t know what’s expected, but I think he’s going to help.” Against North York, the Panthers held a 3-2 lead JasOn LeiBregts / MetrOLand PICKERING -- Toronto Lakeshore Patriots’ Matt Buckles and Pickering Panthers’ Taylor Pryce battled for the puck in Ontario Junior Hockey League action at the Pickering Recreation Complex on Friday. The Patriots won 6-2. through the first period, as Tanner Bull recorded a hat trick, opening the scoring just two minutes into the game, then adding a pair of short-handed goals just 18 seconds apart to close out the period. After a scoreless second period, North York tallied the only two goals of the third to pull out the victory, the winner coming with just 5:02 remaining. “We played two and a half periods of pretty good hockey,” said Galati. “Our penalty kill was perfect. North York played for 10 minutes in the third and it was enough.” At the Pickering Rec- reation Complex on Fri- day against Toronto, the teams traded goals in pairs through the first two periods, with the Pan- thers unable to keep up in the third. Toronto led 2-0 through the first, but Matt Galati scored twice for the Panthers in the second, once on the power play, to tie the game. But Toronto roared back with two for a 4-2 lead after 40 min- utes. Toronto had the only two goals of the third peri- od, leading 6-2 under four minutes in, chasing start- ing netminder Adam Stein. “On Friday (Toronto) got up on us early and we bat- tled back which is a pattern we have taken the last few games,” said Galati. “Two or three bad bounces and it was six to two.” The Panthers are back at it again this weekend when they host Vaughan on Fri- day at the Pickering Recre- ation Complex at 7:30 p.m., then travel to Toronto to face the Jr. Canadiens Sun- day night. durhamregion.comNews Advertiser • October 26, 201127 AP PUBLIC NOTICE PROPOSED ROGERS WIRELESS COMMUNICATIONS SITE 30 METRE “STEALTH” TRI‐POLE STRUCTURE SUBJECT: •Wireless communications shrouded tri‐pole tower, 30 metres high and will occupy a ground compound area of 203sq.m. •Location: 882 Kingston Road, City of Pickering •Legal Description: Part of Lot 27, Range 3, Concession Broken Front Pickering as in D20998, Parts 1 to 4, 40R2628 & Parts 1 to 3, 40R15853; S/T C0165240, D25962 Pickering •The facility will include (1) Radio equipment cabinet and fencing around the base of the tower.

Not at all. Just ask coach and general manager Chris DePiero. He was quick to admit as much following his club’s most recent loss, a 7-6 setback at the hands of the Saginaw Spirit Sunday night at the General Motors Centre. “It’s certainly not what we expected as an organiza- tion. If you ask the players, it’s not what they expect- ed either,” DePiero said of a mediocre 6-6-0-2 start to the season for a team that many expect to be among the top contenders in the league. While they have dealt with a myriad of injuries and suspensions in the early going, DePiero said the big- gest contributing factor to the slow start has been the adjustments made by their opponents. No longer are they the young club sneaking up on others. No, they’ve been stripped of that moniker and are now trying to find ways to deal with being the hunted, rather than the hunter. “Last year, if you look at it, we surprised a lot of teams ... We went from a team that didn’t make the play- offs to a 35-point improve- ment and people were try- ing to figure out can Chris- tian Thomas repeat? Who is this Lessio kid? Who is the Jensen kid? Is Jenner going to take the next step? And they all did. That allowed (for) our success,” DePiero explains. “Now we’re not sneak- ing up on anybody. So it’s a challenge for our guys, another step, another chal- lenge for some of our young players. When you’ve got the group that we have, we’ve got a lot of 18 year olds. It’s not like we have a lot of 19-year-old expe- rienced guys. And again, these are not excuses, it’s the reality of it. We’re not surprising anybody now. “From our perspective, our job as coaches and the players’ job is to fight through those things and come through the other side, which they have the ability to do. Is it taking a little longer than we antici- pated? A hundred per cent it is,” he added. Through 14 games, DePi- ero said several examples exist to add evidence to his claims. Perhaps none more so than on Sunday against the Spirit. Coming off a disappoint- ing 5-2 loss to the Sudbury Wolves Saturday night, it was expected the Generals would come out hard look- ing to salvage something out of the weekend. But it was the Spirit, buoyed by the recent return of Chi- cago Blackhawks prospect Brandon Saad, that hit the ice with purpose, building a 3-0 first period lead and outshooting the Generals 19-7. From there Oshawa was forced to play catch up, albeit unsuccessfully. In defence of his club after another stumble out of the gate, DePiero was pleased with how they battled back through the second and third. “That first period wasn’t going to define us. I didn’t want it to define us. We came back in that second period and we won that period. I thought that was a good response on our part,” he said. That response came with- out the services of goalie Kevin Bailie, who started the game but was lifted after the first period in which he allowed all three goals. DePiero insisted follow- ing the game that Bailie’s departure was injury relat- ed, though he refused to elaborate. Meanwhile, forward Scott Laughton missed Sunday’s game with a minor shoul- der injury, but the club is hopeful he will be ready to go Friday when the Bel- leville Bulls visit the Gener- al Motors Centre for a 7:35 p.m. faceoff. Following Fri- day’s game, Oshawa visits Owen Sound on Saturday and hosts Mississauga Sun- day at 6:05 p.m. ryan Pfeiffer / MetrOLanD OSHAWA -- Oshawa Generals’ forward Christian Thomas battled for the puck with Sudbury Wolves’ Ryan Hanes during Ontario Hockey League action at the GM Centre Saturday. The Wolves beat the Gens 5-2. durhamregion.comNews Advertiser • October 26, 201128 AP OPERATIONS TECHNICIAN Reporting to the Superintendent of Operations (Roads/Traffic), the Operations Technician is responsible for providing technical/field support to the Operational Services Division, including: tender preparation and contract administration, project inspection, surveying and layout; operational investigation, analysis, and reporting; assisting with budget preparation and forecasting; operational policy/procedure research and review; computer applications; the implementation and maintenance of management inventory systems; and, performing other duties as may be assigned.
