PICKERING -- Residents looking for a refreshing escape close to
home can now enjoy the cooling waters of the newly reopened
Petticoat Pool and Splash.
The new, fully accessible aquatic facility at the Petticoat Creek
Conservation Area features three splash pools, an interactive
water-play area and a six-foot-deep main swimming pool com-
plete with beach entry. The large aquatic playground includes
sprayers, buckets, cannons and slides, while the new swimming
pool can hold up to 800 patrons at a time and accommodate
swimmers of all skill levels.
Both the play facility and the pool use state-of-the-art green
technologies including energy efficient pumps and a water recy-
cling system. “Instead of going to waste, the water is recycled back
into the system to conserve water,” said Stephen Lenstra, supervisor
at Petticoat Creek, noting the new facility is perfect for families. “The
old pool was just one large swimming pool, now we have a more
diverse facility for families.”

SIU continues
probe, seeks
witnesses
PICKERING -- A 17-year-old shot by Dur-
ham police early Monday in Pickering
remains in stable condition as the Special
Investigations Unit continues its probe of
the incident.
A suspect was shot by an officer
responding to a report
of a robbery at a vet-
erinary clinic on
Kingston Road near
Glenanna Road
at about 7:30
a.m. The SIU,
which inves-
tigates inci-
dents of death
or serious
injury involv-
ing police, has
not commented on
whether the youth was armed.
Multiple shots were fired and the youth
was struck twice in the chest.
Several SIU investigators were assigned
to the case and Monday the agency issued
an appeal to potential witnesses, includ-
ing three women who were waiting at a
bus stop at the time of the incident.
After that appeal one witness did con-
tact investigators, said SIU spokesperson
Jasbir Brar.
“We received a call from one female,”
Ms. Brar said. “It has yet to be deter-
mined whether that’s one of the three
women we are looking for.”
Investigators still want to hear from
anyone with information, she said.
“The investigation is ongoing,” Ms. Brar
said. “Our investigators are continuing to
interview and seek out witnesses.”
The identity of the youth, believed to
be from Pickering, has not been released.
Durham police said shots were fired
after an officer responding to a call of an
armed robbery in progress at the vet clin-
ic confronted a suspect.
“The preliminary information I have is
that several shots were fired,” Ms. Brar
said.
Witnesses described a scene of pande-
monium as numerous police cruisers,
sirens blaring, rushed to the scene of the
shooting.
“It was like a scene out of a movie, the
way the police cars were rushing west on
Kingston Road,” said Karen, who didn’t
want her last name used.
Karen was driving her son and another
boy to camp in Ajax when she came upon
the scene.
“At this point there were only four
police cars and someone on the ground
in the parking lot of the vet office,” Karen
said. “My son shouted, ‘Oh my God, the
police have their guns drawn’ and he
said it looked like they were trying to kick
the door of the office in.”
Soon the area was swarming with more
than a dozen police cars, Karen said.

PICKERING -- Durham Regional Police officers were at the scene after a robbery sus-
pect was shot on Kingston Road on July 16. At roughly 7:30 a.m. police were called
to an armed robbery in progress at the Sheridan Veterinary Clinic, where a respond-
ing officer confronted the lone male suspect and shots were fired.

Girl fights off assailant in Ajax
AJAX -- Cops have issued an appeal for information as they
try to identify a man who grabbed a girl Tuesday afternoon in
Ajax.
The 14-year-old victim wasn’t hurt during the 3 p.m. inci-
dent, on a path between Adams Drive and Elm Street. She
told Durham police a man approached her from behind and
grabbed her skirt.
The girl pushed the assailant away and he ran towards
Adams Drive, police said. The girl ran home and called
police.
Police are looking for a black man between 20 and 30,
about 6 feet tall with a medium build and short black hair. He
wore a grey hooded sweatshirt and low rise blue jeans.
Call 905-579-1520, ext. 5318.
OMG: Texting cyclist
collides with truck in Ajax
AJAX -- A cyclist who rode into the rear of a vehicle Monday
in Ajax was texting while riding, police say.
The 20-year-old cyclist suffered minor injuries in the inci-
dent, which occurred at about 3 p.m. in the vicinity of Westney
Road and Bayly Street, Durham police said. The driver of a
pick-up truck told cops he was waiting to exit from a plaza
when he saw the bike rider approaching from behind, looking
at the screen of his cellphone as he pedalled.
Before the driver could take evasive action the cyclist
slammed into the rear passenger side of the truck, police
said. The incident highlights the dangers of distracted driving,
no matter what kind of vehicles is involved, police said. They
issued a reminder to pedestrians to avoid distraction as well.
Ajax youth charged with cutting sibling
AJAX -- An Ajax teen faces assault and weapons charges
after his brother was cut during an altercation Monday after-
noon.
Durham police said an argument between the young
men, aged 18 and 17, turned violent when the 17-year-old cut
his brother’s hand with a kitchen knife. Responding officers
found the victim outside the residence, in the Bayly Street and
Monarch Avenue neighbourhood, at about 12:30 p.m.
The victim was taken to hospital for treatment. The
17-year-old was found inside the residence and arrested.
The youth, whose identity is protected under the Youth
Criminal Justice Act, is charged with assault with a weapon
and possession of a dangerous weapon.
Pickering woman’s screams
deter attacker
PICKERING -- A young woman’s screams deterred an attacker
after she was groped on a Pickering street Thursday night.
Durham police are on the lookout for a suspect in the inci-
dent, which occurred at about 10:15 p.m. on Glenanna Road near
Bronte Square. A 19-year-old woman told police she became
uncomfortable when a man followed her. She tried to cross the
street in an effort to avoid him.
But the man grabbed the young woman, prompting her to
scream, police said. The assailant fled east on Glenanna.
He’s described as a white male in his late teens, about 5 feet
6 with a thin build, a slender face and fair skin. He wore a light-
coloured ball cap, navy basketball shorts and a white T-shirt.

PICKERING -- Jonathan Walsh lent a
hand to daughter Aoife, 5, while Ciara,
9, concentrated on her bobber during
the kids’ fishing derby at Progress Park
recently. Organized by the Pickering
Rod and Gun Club, the event marked

The Joe Dickson, MPP Community Day Bar B Q was a huge success again this year on June 15th. Lots
of positive feedback from the crowd, many people mentioned that Joe is always available to speak to
them. This visibility is always appreciated.
Compliments on the movement of the line up, the politeness of the servers, and the tastiness of
the food were plentiful. Thank you to Enbridge for assisting us!
Thank you to Ajax Home Week 2012 Co-Chairs Tom Batchellor, Pat Hayes,
and Laura Oliver for all of their Co-operation.
MANY THANKS
Marlene Hawtin Chair - Joe Dickson Community Bar B Q
June 29,2012
THANK YOU FROM JOE DICKSON,
MPP COMMUNIT Y DAY BAR BQ
The food as always was scrumptious. Over 900 Hamburgers, 400 Hot Dogs, and 450 Samosa were served
between 6:00 p.m. and 9:00 p.m. Over 1100 bottles of water were given out as well.
Our volunteers were abundant and more than competent, and I thank them all! They got the job
done quickly and effortlessly.
I am confident that the Community are already looking forward to next year. Home Week is
June 10 – 16, 2013 and our Community Bar B Q is Friday June 14th. , 2013.
We had an abundance of volunteers, many stayed after the Bar B Q to walk in the
Home Week Parade with Joe.
The total number of people served at Joe Dickson’s Bar B Q would have been very close to 1800.
This number grows with each passing year. Next year we’ll order more food.

PICKERING -- A 79-year-old woman
died when the car she was a passenger
in was struck broadside at a Pickering
intersection Sunday.
The driver and another passenger in
the car were taken to hospital with non-
life-threatening injuries following the
crash, at the intersection of Rosebank
and Kingston roads at about 1:45 p.m.,
Durham police said.
Road conditions and alcohol are not
considered factors in the crash, police
said. A stretch of Kingston Road was
closed for several hours as police inves-
tigated.
Police said the car was northbound
when it was struck by the westbound
truck.
The name of the dead woman was
withheld at the request of her family.

Gas barbecue may be

PICKERING -- Emergencey crews were on the scene of a collision at the inter-
esection of Kingston Road and Rosebank Road July 15.
Firefighters from
Ajax, Pickering battle
Front Road blaze
PICKERING -- A gas barbecue may have
started a fire that caused extensive damage
to a south Pickering home Saturday eve-
ning, police say.
An investigation into the fire, at a home
on Front Road in Frenchman’s Bay, contin-
ued Sunday. Pickering and Ajax firefight-
ers and Durham police attended the 7 p.m.
blaze.
“At this time we believe it to be (caused
by) a malfunctioning gas barbecue,” Staff
Sergeant Dave Emmorey said Sunday.
He said no one was hurt in the fire, which
caused extensive damage to the three-sto-
rey home that backs onto Frenchman’s
Bay.
The fire caused thick smoke to billow
into the sky. Dozens of onlookers gathered
at Bruce Handscomb Park in Pickering’s
West Shore community to watch as bright
orange flame engulfed the structure.
According to police at the scene no one
was hurt in the blaze.
Neighbours said the homeowners weren’t
home at the time, but the house was being
taken care of. They said the fire may have
been caused by a barbecue propane tank
exploding on a wooden deck.
Paul Garrett lives on Bayview Street,
which intersects with Front Road. He said
he was doing some computer work in his
front room when he realized something
was wrong.
“All of a sudden I saw all the black smoke
coming out,” he said. “We hear the fire
trucks coming and saw a massive amount
of flames coming out of there.”
Mr. Garrett said there are three houses
built closely together and it seemed like
the firefighters were trying to prevent the
fire from spreading to one of them.
“They were trying to save the other one
more than that one at first, but you could
see the firefighters struggling from the
huge heat coming out of it, especially in
this weather.”
Police blocked off the immediate area
near the home. The thick black smoke
could be seen rising in Ajax.
“There were towering flames coming out
of it,” said Mr. Garrett. “It’s three stories, it’s
a relatively new house, you know, lots of
stuff in it.”
Three men taken to
hospital with non-life-
threatening injuries
PICKERING -- Three men were taken to
Uxbridge hospital after a three-vehicle
collision shut down a stretch of Brock
Road early Monday morning.
The men suffered non-life-threatening
injuries, such as cuts to their hands and
heads, as well as possible broken bones,
in the crash, which happened just before
6:30 a.m., say police.
The collision occurred on Brock Road,
just south of the Uxbridge-Pickering
Townline Road.
Officers are currently interviewing
those involved in the accident as well as
witnesses to determine the cause of the
crash, said Dave Selby, a spokesman for
the Durham force.

Ramadan is a month eagerly awaited by Muslims around the
world.
It was during this month that the Qur’an was revealed to
Prophet Mohammad (peace be upon him). It’s a month of ini-
tiation that systematically dismantles egotism and induces
sympathy for the sufferings of the weak and the vulnerable. It
generously grants us the time and space to understand what
drives us, analyze our emotional blocks, wounds and anxieties
and master them.
The change is not something physical, but rather an inner
atmospheric change. When you really fast, you live without
feeling physically full and spend the month trying to become
spiritually full.
You want to live reflectively, without having to deal
with unimportant frills. In Ramadan you
strive to control what you do and how you
spend your time rather than just going
with the flow.
Ramadan is when you focus on your
real, inner self.
It’s a month of abrupt changes and chal-
lenges; this is true here more than anywhere else.
At the heart of our consumer society, where we are
used to easy access to goods and possessions and where
we are driven by the marked individualism of our daily lives,
this month requires us to come back to the centre and to the
meaning of our life.
We are all experiencing a profound loss of confidence. Fear,
doubt and distrust are imperceptibly colonizing our hearts
and minds. And so the other becomes our negative mirror,
and the other’s difference allows us to define ourselves, to
‘identify’ ourselves.
The month of Ramadan is the “month of the meaning” ...
why this life? What about God in my life? What about my fam-
ily and this humanity? What meaning have I given to my daily
life?
A reminder; what are we doing of ourselves today? What are
our contributions within the fields of social justice and liber-
ty? How are we promoting the dignity of women, children or
to protect the rights of the poor and the marginalized people
in our societies?
What have we done with our message of individual respon-
sibility of human brotherhood and compassion? All these
questions are in our hearts and minds ... and there is only one
response inspired by the Qur’an and nurtured by the month of
Ramadan: God will change nothing for the good if you change
nothing.
-- Javed Akbar is director outreach at the Pickering Islamic Centre.
Ramadan in Durham: What it means to Muslims
F ires in Durham underscore
need for safety vigilance
Fire tore through a luxury home on the
east shore of Pickering’s Frenchman’s Bay
on Saturday, likely resulting in a complete
loss. In Clarington on Sunday, a Hamp-
ton home was gutted by fire, resulting in
an estimated $400,000 in damages. Earlier
this year, dozens of acres were scorched in
an outdoor fire in Uxbridge.
In all three cases, fortunately, there were
no injuries or loss of life.
But each illustrates the importance of fire
safety, fire prevention and the risks fire-
fighters and medical responders must face
in emergency situations.
Early indications in the Pickering fire are
related to the use of a gas barbecue; there
is no cause determined yet in the weekend
fire in Hampton.
As we approach the middle of summer,
it’s imperative that we stop for a moment,
assess our own fire safety and fire preven-
tion practices at home, and ensure the
safety of our residences and families.
Fire services that serve municipalities
from Pickering to Clarington and north to
Scugog and Uxbridge remain active in their
education efforts and provide residents
with important and timely information on
municipal websites and at municipal offic-
es. Call your local fire service for informa-
tion and safety tips, visit the websites and
take heed of the excellent resources that
are available.
Information on everything from bar-
becue safety and home escape plans to
hosting holiday parties and smoke alarm
maintenance are offered by local munici-
pal firefighters to help reduce the risk for
residents.
We can all take some comfort from the
fact that there was no loss of life in Dur-
ham’s weekend fires. But emergency offi-
cials will tell you that each case had the
potential for a much more tragic outcome.
Summer is a time to enjoy warm tem-
peratures and sunshine. It’s a time to enjoy
family vacations, or an outing at your
favourite Durham destination. But danger
always lurks.
Take the time to review and reassess
at home. Ensure that fire alarms are in
good working order. Follow local regula-
tions regarding outdoor burning and take
advantage of the information resources
offered by your local fire service.
One spark, one discarded cigarette, or
one unattended fire source can lead to a
conflagration. Make sure you and your
loved ones are safe this summer in Dur-
ham Region.
You never really know who or what is going to end up mak-
ing an impact in your life.
Sometimes you don’t even realize who you’re going to
miss until they’re gone.
I had a weird moment a couple of weeks back, when
the radio told me about the death of Don Grady. Many
of you might never have even heard of Don but I
remember him fondly as oldest son Robbie Douglas in
the ’60s TV series My Three Sons.
Then, hard on the heels of that, came the death of
another fixture of my youth, the inimitable Andy Grif-
fith. I’m still not entirely sure why the passing of
these gentlemen affected me so. It probably
has something to do with a time in my life,
an innocence and an outlook that I’d like
to have back... a time when it seemed like
I had more time.
At 52, I do not, by any means, consid-
er myself old. I am fit, happy and pos-
sessed of a good deal of positive energy.
But I am aware of time’s passage. Some-
times keenly so.
The deaths of contemporaries or even
near contemporaries sharpens that edge
considerably. The first three or four decades
of our lives are busy ones.
There’s a whole lot of growing and change
and flux. The tumult of adolescence, mar-
riage and children are like rodeo clowns that
life sends out to keep our eyes off of the bull
that is in the ring with us. But around middle
age things slow down a bit.
The dust in the ring settles and there are
fewer distractions. We see the bull a little
more clearly. And that’s a good thing, actu-
ally.
Being aware of the bull, of the final act, the
curtain, as it were, is a handy little remind-
er to put some giddyup back into our lives.
We’re not dead yet, far from it, but there’s
no question that time has become more precious. To me
there’s nothing sadder than an adult of middle age
who has not realized that yet. Someone who is
still stumbling unconsciously through his life.
Who has forgotten how to dream. Who is react-
ing instead of acting.
That’s the biggest gift that people who
check out early leave the rest of us.
Every obit, every news story about the death
of a Don Grady or an Andy Griffith or a Joe Six-
pack for that matter, is a mirror for the rest of us
to briefly and honestly gaze into. When we look
into that glass we see our lives, for a brief
moment, exactly as they are.
We see our accomplishments and,
more importantly, our dusty ‘to do’
list.
That folded and torn ledger that
we have been scribbling on ever
since the first dream passed
through our consciousness, that
first desire or want that fueled
our imagination and drove us
forward into life.
Indeed, was life. Dreams are life.
Passion is life. Without these two why
are we here? Why ever would we want to
be here?
I’m glad for the impact the pass-
ing of certain people has on my existence.
I’m thankful for the panicked, frightened
feeling it sometimes gives me. \
The wonderful, electric impetus to
get on with it, to get living. As long as I
can feel that, I know I am still very much
alive.

On dog attacks…
It seems that dog attacks are too often front-page news. Recently, I was attacked by a pair of King German shepherds while walking on the Harmony bike path with my wife and grandson. As we approached, we noticed their agitation due to an “unleashed” dog running around behind us. The leashed German shepherd leapt at me trying to get to the small dog. I received nasty scratches and my shirt sleeve was torn. The owner was apologetic and gave his name and a cell phone number. Both the name and number were fake. Durham Animal Services investigated but without the dogs, not much could be done and we don’t know if they had rabies shots. The Durham Health Department and my doctor provided information about rabies and recommended I get the shots. It’s not a simple treatment. However, rabies is fatal and I have a few more things to do with my life. At the time, I was in shock and next time I would do things differently. If attacked, call 911 immediately. Don’t rely on verbal identification. Record the dog tag number and exchang identification with th owner. Take cellphone pictures of dogs if possible. If the owner does not cooperate, call 911. Inform Animal Services at 905-436-3311 and the Health Department at 905-
723-3818 to register the dog attack, especially if bitten or scratched. Most dog owners are responsible and I appreciate that their dogs are leashed. Unfortunately, too many owners do not leash their dogs. Aggressive dogs, even on leashes, are not safe to be walked in public places and should be muzzled. If you encounter this pair of King German shepherds, keep your distance, as they have reportedly attacked other dogs and now have attacked a human. If you see them, call Animal Services so they can be checked. I am an adult and will emotionally and physically survive the attack and the rabies treatment. I would not want anyone else to go through this experience, especially a child. I’m hoping this article will help identify the dogs and owner and prevent future incidents. It’s unfortunate that this occurred on our beautiful bike path that we all enjoy. I worry about families experiencing similar incidents. We still will enjoy our parks and paths but we will be aware of all that is around us. Dog owners must realize that there is a bylaw that all dogs must be leashed when not on private property. It will make it much more enjoyable and safer for everyone.

The redevelopment was aimed at creating a
local destination for families to play together.
“We wanted to create a place that’s afford-
able and accessible to the local communi-
ty where they can enjoy a day of swimming
and fun in a natural environment,” Mr. Len-
stra said. “When you’re in the aquatic facil-
ity you’re surrounded by trees, greenery and
berms, It’s quite a beautiful place to house
this type of facility.”
The two-year, multi-million dollar redevel-
opment was made possible through funding
from the Recreational Infrastructure Canada
and Recreation in Ontario programs. Offi-
cials gathered at the pool on July 11 to cele-
brate the grand opening.
“Our investment in the Petticoat Pool
and Splash facility will enhance the health
of our families and our youth by providing
increased access to public facilities, promot-
ing an active lifestyle and encouraging com-
munity sustainability,” said Corneliu Chisu,
MP for Pickering-Scarbough East.
MPP Tracy MacCharles also lauded the
community benefits provided by the facility.
“In Pickering, our investment in the new
Petticoat Pool and Splash will help keep peo-
ple of all ages healthy, active and happy for
years to come,” she said.
The Petticoat Pool and Splash is now open
daily through Sept. 3, weather permitting.
Admission fee is $4.75 for guests 2 years or
older, plus park admission, or $2.75 for park
members.

reopening of the Petticoat Creek pool complex on July 11.
Top Cadet
recognized
during annual event
PICKERING -- Area air cadets got a chance to
show off their skills during their 14th annual
inspection parade.
Members of the local Air Cadet Squadron
856 Pickering Kinsmen Squadron took to the
floor at the Don Beer Memorial Arena recent-
ly to show off the skills they acquired over the
past year, including demonstrations of their
band competition routine, the rifle drill team
and a photo presentation of the various train-
ing events held throughout the year, for an
audience of friends, family and local repre-
sentatives.
“I am refreshed at what I see here, at young
people developing themselves as future lead-
ers and future contributing members to our
society both in the community here, the
region, the Province and as Canadians,” said
Lieutenant-Colonel Gregory J. Stasyna CD,
Commanding Officer 32 Signal Regiment,
who acted as reviewing officer for the cere-
mony.
“From what I’ve seen here today I’m highly
impressed with your dress and deportment
and just your demeanor. You have earned the
privilege to be called adults and I commend
you on an excellent parade.”
Chief Warrant Officer First Class Andrew
Gaul, 18, commanded the parade of 130
cadets and was awarded the Top Cadet award
for demonstrating the greatest aptitude in
the squadron. Mr. Gaul was commended for
excelling in uniform maintenance, drill and
classroom work and demonstrating great
enthusiasm for participating in extracurric-
ular activities. His achievements included
participating as a member of the first-place
Eastern Ontario Orienteering Team 2011,
vaptain of several sports teams, two years as
Staff Cadet CFB Borden at Blackdown Cadet
Summer Training Centre and seven years as a
member of the Canadian Cadet Movement.
Other air cadets received summer training
scholarships at Canadian Forces Bases across
Canada, including Warrant Officer Second
Class Lester Sampayo, who will be attend-
ing the International Air Cadet Exchange
program this summer in New Zealand. The
program is designed to train cadets in acting
as ambassadors for Canada while learning
about other countries.
Sergeant Trevor Doak, Sergeant Sarah Fran-
cis and Sergeant Sanjika Sehgal also received
flying scholarships for a six-week glider pro-
gram at CFB Trenton, during which cadets
are trained in how to operate and fly solo in a
glider.
Flight Sergeant Ren-David Dimen was pre-
sented a scholarship to earn his private pilot’s
licence.

an Air Cadets, visit www.856aircadets.com or

Open Air Burning
Pickering Fire Services reminds you that open air burning,
including use of fire pits and table style fire pits, is not
permitted in the City of Pickering.Concerns regarding
open air burning include injury to persons coming into
contact with the hot surfaces,fire exposure hazards from
sparks/embers for the users and neighbouring property
and adjacent trees,grass and weeds.As well, since it is
not possible to confine smoke to your yard,it could be
problematic for others in the community who may suffer
from asthma or other respiratory ailments.The use of these
devices will generate unnecessary alarms for the City of
Pickering Fire Services.

Local radio hobbyists
say change shows
lack of transparency
DURHAM -- Eavesdropping on fire calls in
Durham Region will soon be a thing of the
past.
Regional council recently approved a
$48.5-million project that will see Durham’s
emergency responders move to a common
radio and communications system in the
next two years.
Police, fire, EMS and other responders cur-
rently use a mix of services that make it diffi-
cult for them to communicate in real time.
While the new “Next Gen” system will put
them on the same frequency, it will also fur-
ther shut out radio hobbyists, tow-truck driv-
ers, reporters and anyone else who uses a
scanner to listen in on emergency calls.
Durham Regional Police have used encryp-
tion to shield their radio communica-
tions since 2000, but other local emergency
responders currently operate in the clear.
Under the new system, communications
from Durham’s eight local fire services will
become encrypted.
Oshawa Fire Chief Steve Meringer says
encryption is long overdue to protect the pri-
vacy of local residents.
“There is sometimes confidential infor-
mation that needs to be said over the
radio ... they may have to mention a dis-
ease or illness at a certain address. I
don’t think that should be out there,” he
says. “There should be confidentiality.”
The fire chief says privacy should also
extend to operational discussions between
emergency workers, especially if they find
themselves in jeopardy.
He points to death of York Regional Police
Const. Garrett Styles, who stopped a minivan
carrying four youths in June 2011 and was
dragged by the vehicle before being pinned
under it when the driver lost control.
“Everyone in the world was able to listen
to the last 20 minutes of that young man’s
life. God forbid something like that happens
here,” Chief Meringer says.
For now, Durham EMS won’t be affected by
encryption.
Like all ambulance services in Ontario, it
uses a provincial dispatch system that oper-
ates in the clear.
Officials with the Ministry of Health and
Long-Term Care said currently “there are no
plans to change to another provincial system.”
While municipalities are able to pursue and
evaluate dispatch changes without ministry
approval, they can’t implement any chang-
es to the existing dispatch model provided
through the Central Ambulance Communi-
cations Centres.
It’s difficult to say how many members of
the public are listening in on local emergency
calls.
Staff at Durham Radio -- a Whitby store that
carries an array of CB radios, scanners and
accessories -- says the cost of equipment and
technical know-how needed to use it mean
the pastime isn’t for everyone.
“A lot of people who buy from us are just
interested in knowing what’s going on in their
community. It’s as simple as that,” says sales-
man Larry Goucher. “They do it because they
enjoy it as a hobby.”
He says the equipment is also popular
among tow-truck drivers, long distance truck-
ers and aviation enthusiasts who like to keep
an ear on the airports.
Matt Shaver, a local HAM radio operator
and all-around communications hobbyist, is
someone who tunes in for enjoyment.
The Oshawa man has a collection of about
six radios that he uses to pull in information
from as far away as Hamilton and Cobourg,
listening in on emergency dispatches as well
as aircraft and railroad communications.
“It’s good to know what’s going on in my
own community,” he says.
Mr. Shaver already questions the logic of
encrypting Durham police communica-
tions when much larger police services such
as Toronto, New York City and Los Angeles
operate in the clear.
He says extending that silence to include
local fire services is a waste of taxpayers’ dol-
lars and questions the privacy defence.
“In the six years I’ve been listening, I’ve
never once heard a patient’s name used over
the radio,” he says.
Chris Leth is another hobbyist opposed to
the change.
He was introduced to CB radios and scan-
ners by his father, a former trucker, and now
loves to spend his evenings and weekends
tinkering with his collection of equipment
and keeping an ear on the local action.
“I think it’s good to have citizens listening.
We pay the salaries for the police and fire and
ambulance and they’re there to serve the
public,” he says. “I don’t think there’s any-
thing wrong with us wanting to know what
they’re doing. What do they have to hide?”
Asked whether it would have been less
expensive to go with a radio option that
doesn’t include encryption for fire -- or
removes encryption from police -- DRPS
Superintendent Joe Maiorano didn’t have an
answer.
“It’s difficult to say because it wasn’t one of
the requirements we asked them to bid on,”
he said, referring to a lengthy tender process
that saw the Region whittle down proposals
from several bidders. “This project was driv-
en by user-defined needs ... we determined
the operational requirements for users and
matched those with technology offerings.”
He added that while many services
using older models don’t have it, encryption
is “fairly standard” for public safety systems
being rolled out today.
“If we have a takedown occurring, do we
want our suspects to know what activities
we’re planning?” he said. “We’ve deemed
(encryption) to be a requirement. It’s there to
support officer safety, public safety ... every-
one’s safety.”
The majority of police and fire services in
the GTA are not currently encrypted, includ-
ing Toronto.
However Supt. Maiorano stressed many
area emergency services are looking into
encryption as their current systems come to
end of life.
“Toronto is looking at moving to it by 2014,”
he noted.
Over and out: Durham’s fire communications will soon be encrypted like police radio
Jillian Follert jfollert@durhamregion.com
Sabrina byrneS / Metroland
OSHAWA -- Matt Shaver is one of many local radio hobbyists concerned by plans for a new radio system that will encrypt all radio
communications between Durham emergency responders. Durham police have been encrypted for years, but this change will
now encrypt fire services and EMS communications.

Long jumper-
turned-sprinter
going to Olympics
PICKERING -- The route to the 2012 Lon-
don Olympics wasn’t a conventional one
for Pickering sprinter Kerri-Ann Mitchell.
Far from it.
Not only is Mitchell making her debut on
the world’s largest sporting stage at the rel-
atively late age of 29, but she’s doing so in a
new discipline and just two years removed
from a five-year absence from athletics.
To top it all off, Mitchell was named to
Canada’s track-and-field team more than
a week after the bulk was announced, one
of five late additions made by Athletics
Canada.
“I’m very, very excited. It’s so surreal
and I’m just trying to enjoy each day,” says
Mitchell, who will run in the 100-metre
dash in London. “I’ll be more excited
when I get on the plane and can say, ‘OK,
this is real’.”
She has plenty of reasons to wonder, not
the least of which due to her third place fin-
ish in the event at the national champion-
ships in Calgary at the end of June. There,
Mitchell finished in a wind-aided time of
11:34, narrowly behind Markham’s Phyli-
cia George (11.295) and Scarborough’s
Crystal Emmanuel (11.297).
However, with Emmanuel concentrat-
ing on her stronger race, the 200m, and
George deciding to drop out to focus on
the 100m hurdles, the door was opened
for Mitchell, who had met the other nec-
essary requirements, including two other
Olympic B standard times, 11.36 at the
Donovan Bailey Invitational Track Meet
in Edmonton and 11.32 at the Asian Com-
munity Games in Toronto.
What makes Mitchell’s story more inspir-
ing, though, is the fact she had given up on
elite-level sports altogether shortly after
earning her masters degree from the Uni-
versity of Oklahoma and settling into a
career south of the border.
Mitchell attended the University of
Arkansas on a scholarship after graduating
from Pine Ridge Secondary School, at the
time a long jumper who just happened to
be a pretty good sprinter to boot. Although
she also competed for Oklahoma in 2005,
she had decided her athletic career was
coming to a close.
“I kind of decided after my undergrad-
uate year in ‘04 that I was done with the
sport. I was good just to get onto the next
chapter of working and doing my masters,
and so forth,” she recalls. “It wasn’t until
about 2009 that I started getting the urge to
come back. In 2010, I just packed my car,
quit my job and drove back up to Canada
to train.”
Back home in Pickering, she has hooked
up again with local coach Anthony
McCleary, who also works with hurdlers
George and London-bound Nikkita Hold-
er.
Given the five-year layoff and the transi-
tion to sprinter, Mitchell was looking more
toward 2016 and the Rio Games than Lon-
don, she admits.
“After taking all those years off I knew
my first couple of years would be basical-
ly training my body to be in shape again,”
she says. “With that in mind, the Olympics
were so close, I thought I’d just be in shape
for these Olympics and come 2016, I’d be
rolling, but I ended up being able to roll a
little bit earlier. It was definitely a blessing
to be able to qualify for these Games.”
Mitchell will head overseas with no
grand illusions of bringing home a medal
-- the world’s best run under 11 seconds --
but rather, she’s focused on getting better,
gaining experience and perhaps reaching
the second round.

Landry helps
Canada to
eighth place
finish in Belarus
MINSK, BELARUS -- Canada’s London-
bound rhythmic gymnastics team deliv-
ered a strong performance on Sunday
at the final World Cup meet before the
Olympics.
The six-member team showed its goal
of reaching the final at the Olympics is
well within reach after placing eighth
among the world’s top teams gearing up
for the Games.
In the three ribbon-two hoops group
final, the Olympic favourites from Russia
took the gold with 28.225 points. Belarus
was second with 27.400 points and Italy
third with a score of 27.325.
Canada placed eighth with 25.600
points in a tight battle among teams
ranked fifth to eighth.
“Our goal going into the competition
was to make one final and in that final
to compete with no major mistakes and
we accomplished that,” said Ajax’s Alex-
andra Landry in a press release. “On day
two we were much stronger and stuck all
our elements with no drops.”
Other members of the team are Anje-
lika Reznik, Anastasiya Muntyanu and
Rose Cossar, all of Toronto, Kelsey Tit-
marsh of Thornhill and Katrina Cameron
of Mississauga.
“With three weeks of training left until
we step into the Olympic village, we’re
already feeling ready,” said Landry.
The team will continue its final prep-
aration for the Games at its European
training base in Marbella, Spain.
Rhythmic gymnastics will be held over
the final four days of the Olympics, Aug. 9
to 12 at Wembley Arena.

Rock crushed by Lakers
AJAX -- The Ajax Rock are glad to
have seen the last of the Peterbor-
ough Lakers for the regular season.
For the second time in a row, the
Rock were no match for the Lak-
ers, falling 15-3 on Friday night in
Major Series Lacrosse play at the
Ajax Community Centre.
In the last two meetings between
the clubs, the Rock have been out-
scored 36-7, including a 21-4 loss
on July 5.
This one was relatively close
through the opening 20 minutes
with the Rock down just 5-2, as
Brock Boyle scored both for the
Rock and would later add an assist
on a second period goal by Travis
Bland. But by the time Bland scored,
with 42 seconds left in the second
period, the Lakers had already put
seven on the board in the period for
a 12-3 cushion through 40 minutes.
The Lakers added three more in
the third period and held the Rock
off the scoreboard for a 15-3 final.
Elliot Bender, Craig England
and goaltender Tye Belanger had
assists for the Rock. Belanger split
the duties in goal with Gary Muzz-
in, facing 60 shots, while the Rock
responded with 36 at Lakers net-
minder Kevin Croswell.
Jordan MacIntosh, the Rock’s sec-
ond leading scorer last season and
league rookie of the year, had three
assists for the Lakers in his first
game against his old team since
being traded away by the Rock at
the deadline. Goaltender Tyler
Carlson, who was also included in
the deal with MacIntosh, did not
play for the Lakers.
The Rock will take a 1-11-0 record
into the final weekend of their reg-
ular season, hosting the Kitchen-
er-Waterloo Kodiaks on Friday at 8
p.m., followed by a Saturday home
game against the Six Nations Chiefs
at 7 p.m. Both games are at the Ajax
Community Centre.
Ryan PfeiffeR / MetRoland
AJAX -- Ajax Rock Aaron Brown shielded the ball from Peterborough Laker Jordan MacIntosh during
their Major Series Lacrosse game at the Ajax Community Centre on Friday. The Rock stayed close for
one period, but ultimately lost 15-3.
ANCASTER -- The Ajax FC 2001
Girls’ Red Team won the 7th
annual Ancaster Heritage Days
Soccer Tournament.
With a record 361 teams regis-
tered, this tournament featured
tough competition.
Ajax FC opened the tournament
with a 4-0 win against the Tecum-
seh Warriors. Going into the sec-
ond game against the Dundas
Dragons, Ajax FC continued to
showcase their fitness and team-
work, realizing what hard work
and effort brings, resulting in a
2-1 win.
Their second meeting with the
Dundas Dragons was during the
semifinals, ending in a 1-1 tie.
The game was decided with a
nail-biting penalty shootout out
with Ajax FC winning in the end.
The final game was a fierce bat-
tle against Grimsby Attack. Ajax
FC continued its high-pressure
game, opening up with the first
goal and secured their lead before
the half with a second goal.
Grimsby cut the lead in half on a
penalty kick. In the end, Ajax FC
claimed their victory.
Ajax FC 2001 Girls’ Red is
coached by Howard Tulloch and
Sandy Milevski and the team
manager is Nurisha Wright. Team
members include: Meagan Brew-
ing, Lena Dennis, Jessica Ferrei-
ra, Holly Gibson, Caitlin Hogg,

WHITEFIELD, Robert (Bob/Bert) M. - of
North York, ON passed away on Monday,
July 09, 2012 at The Scarborough Hospital
with his two daughters, Cathie & Anne and
his dearest friend, Daphne at his side. Bob
was born March 28, 1930 in Glasgow, Scot-
land, immigrating to Canada in 1953. He re-
tired from Revenue Canada after over 25
years of service, enjoying his last position, as
Chief of Public Affairs. His passions included
his many years performing on stage, espe-
cially at Herongate Barn Theatre or attending
shows, most often in Stratford, ON. He
enjoyed numerous cruises throughout the
Caribbean and North America and includes
reading as his favourite past-time, especially
mysteries and historical biographies. He is
survived by his two daughters, Catherine
Gulliver of Guelph, ON and Anne Fountain
(Brian McKay), his two grandsons Todd &
Troy and 2 step-grandsons (Conner & Kyle)
of Winnipeg, MB, along with his dearest and
long-time friend, Daphne Clunies of North
York, ON. Robert was predeceased in death
by his only brother, James of Evesham,
England. A memorial service will be held
July, 21, 2012 at 11:00am at THE SIMPLE ALTERNATIVE, 275 Lesmill Road, North
York, followed by a "Celebration of Life". In
lieu of flowers, donations may be made to the
Canadian Diabetes Foundation.
DAVIS, Lemuel William - In Loving Memory.
On Saturday, July 14, 2012, surrounded by
his family and loved ones, Lemuel William
Davis passed away quietly. He was a pillar of
strength to all who knew him and an inspira-
tion to those whose lives he touched.
Pre-deceased by his wife, Anita Joyce Davis
(nee Buxcey)(1981). Survived by his children
and grandchildren, Bradley and Margriet
Davis, and their children Melissa, Joshua,
Jesse and Bradon; Christopher and Annette
Davis, and their daughter Amber; Pamela
(Davis) and Gerald McLaughlin. Loved and
missed by his long-time companion Helen
Elizabeth (Betty) Wilson along with her chil-
dren, grandchildren and great-grandchildren.
No public service will be held. Donations to
Lymphoma Foundation Canada would be
greatly appreciated. Funeral arrangements
entrusted to MOUNT LAWN RECEPTION CENTRE, 905-443-3376.
