Program aims to
increase fire safety
and prevention
knowledge
Moya Dillon
mdillon@durhamregion.com
PICKERING -- Grade 1 student Nathan
Barnes found out first-hand what it means
to be fire chief during the Pickering’s Fire
Chief for a Day program.
On Oct. 10 Nathan, 6, spent the day with
Pickering firefighters, enjoying tours of area
fire stations, learning to use a fire hose and
even getting a ride to school in a fire truck.
However, when asked what his favourite
part was, all of that took a back seat to one
thing -- “hot chocolate.
“It’s fun,” he added about being chief.
“The fire trucks are cool.”
Nathan’s mom Christie Barnes entered
him in the lottery-syle draw for the pro-
gram, which she thought would be a good
learning experience.
“It’s great because it’s Fire Prevention
Week and this is a great way for children
to learn about safety and make a home
escape plan,” she said.
The Fire Chief for a Day program is
designed to teach kids about fire preven-
tion and give them a first-hand look at
what firefighters do.
“It’s a great program,” said Chief Bill
Douglas.
“It gives kids a really good basis for home
safety by having them create an evacuation
plan and a meeting place, but it’s also just
the experience of meeting the firefighters
and getting a respect for firefighters at a
young age.”
As part of the event, Nathan visited his
school, Sir John A. Macdonald Public
School, with firefighters for a presentation
on fire safety.
“It’s the kids that bring the message of
fire safety back home to their parents, and
maybe they decide to check the smoke
alarm batteries,” Chief Douglas said.
“We want them to enjoy the day as much
as possible, but it’s also about spreading
the message of fire prevention. We’ve real-
ly seen it pay off in the last couple of years,
we’re getting fewer and fewer large fires.”
Julie Ineson, fire inspector for Pickering
Fire Services, urges families to create and
practise a home escape plan, complete
with designated meeting place, and always
ensure they have two ways out of the
house, as well as ensuring they have work-
ing smoke alarms on all floors and outside
sleeping areas.
“Working smoke alarms can increase
your chances of surviving a fire by 50 per
cent, so it’s important to make sure alarms
are in working order,” Ms. Ineson said.
Firefighters will be on hand at the
Pickering Recreation Complex on Sunday,
Oct. 14 from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. for Fire Safety
Day, where kids can enjoy fire safety dem-
onstrations, meet Sparky the Fire Dog and
enjoy more fun activities.

Heart care clarification
Knife-point assault
dates to ’70s,
court hears
JEFF MITCHELL
jmitchell@durhamregion.com
OSHAWA -- A former Pickering man’s allega-
tions of sexual assault are the result of false
memories, not real events, a defence lawyer
has suggested.
“What you’re telling us is something that
came to you in a wild dream,” lawyer Alan
Risen said during cross-examination of the
complainant, who has testified he was sexu-
ally assaulted at knife-point by James John
Hayes in either 1977 or 1978.
The man said he’d kept the incident to him-
self for years, but revealed it to his wife after
being tormented by “wild” dreams during a
difficult withdrawal from prescription pain-
killers in early 2011. He said his wife encour-
aged him to contact police. “It’s not reality
based,” Mr. Risen said of the man’s testimo-
ny. “It’s dream based.”
“I’m not making up stories,” said the com-
plainant, whose identity is protected by a
publication ban.
Mr. Hayes, 57, has pleaded not guilty to
indecent assault and a weapons offence. He
was arrested last year after the complainant,
now 50, went to police with allegations of the
assault, which he said occurred in the base-
ment of Mr. Hayes’s house in the Bay Ridges
neighbourhood of Pickering when he was a
teenager. The complainant testified Tues-
day he had met Mr. Hayes to buy marijuana.
He said he was ushered into a laundry room
where Mr. Hayes threatened him with a large
knife and forced him to commit sex acts.
Mr. Risen took the complainant through a
detailed cross-examination, pointing out a
number of discrepancies in statements he’d
made to police and in court. The witness was
vague on some details of the allegations and
couldn’t remember others at all, the lawyer
said. “I suggest to you if this was a real event
there would be no hesitation,” Mr. Risen said.
“If it happened in real life, you would know
for sure.”
Mr. Hayes said no sexual assault occurred.
He denied selling drugs to the man and
rejected the notion he’d ever invited him to
his house. And he said he was not living at his
parents’ Bay Ridges home during the sum-
mers of 1977 and 1978, the estimated time of
the allegations.
But prosecutor Tammy D’Eri produced
court and police records she said indicated
Mr. Hayes was in Durham Region in the sum-
mer of 1978. She suggested he was creating
historical alibis based on the timing of the
allegations.
Court heard Mr. Hayes has a criminal record
dating back to the ’70s that includes multiple
convictions for drug and sex offences.
The trial consisted of testimony from just
two witnesses -- the complainant and the
defendant. Lawyers are to make final submis-
sions to Superior Court Justice Alfred Stong
Thursday.

Words twisted into
something they are
not in language guide
To the editor:
Re: ‘Durham teachers get schooled in lan-
guage’, news, durhamregion.com, Sept. 28,
2012.
I could not believe what I was reading.
How does the school board keep coming
up with such ludicrous new guidelines?
Did someone complain about being, as the
school board uses for examples, called Jew-
ish or Chinese, boyfriend and girlfriend,
men and women?
In future, a Jewish person should be
referred to as a person from the Jewish
community. I don’t read anything deroga-
tory in the original reference.
Let’s look at it this way. They don’t want
to say a person is Canadian. We should say
that person is from Canada.
But to me this not telling me that the per-
son is Canadian, only that the person lives
in Canada.
The article stated that the cost for this
new guide was less than $500 and staff vol-
unteered time to draft it.
That $500 could buy a lot of chocolate
bars and then children wouldn’t have to go
door to door selling them to raise funds for
projects at school.
Nor would parents have to take them to
work to sell. My point being if there is $500
to waste, put it to something useful for the
students.
The big problem is words are being twist-
ed into something they are not.
But wait, I just thought of something. I
will no longer be referred to as a ‘Newfie’, I
now will have to be referred to as a person
from Newfoundland and Labrador.
Well, thank goodness for that.

No ‘small price’ to
pay for protection
To the editor:
Re: ‘Police chopper noise a small price to
pay for protection’, letter to the editor, dur-
hamregion.com, Oct. 1, 2012.
Really? A small price to pay for our great-
er peace of mind? The role of government
doing its job efficiently at the fairest cost?
The last time I checked my more than
$6,000 yearly tax bill, one-third of that
cost (roughly $2,000) went to the Durham
Regional Police Service.
In a day and age where your govern-
ment wants to quash raises to public sector
workers, doctors, nurses, etc. (except police
and fire) and the police budget is nowhere
close to the cost of living, I think it’s high
time we contracted out some of DRP ser-
vices to lower costs.
I think it’s safe to say that when nearly all
first class constables earn in the $100,000
range something needs to be done to rein
costs in.
Getting rid of the helicopter is a good
start, then we can focus on contracting out
traffic enforcement. Let the police focus
on major crime investigation. I’d be inter-
ested in seeing the stats the MPP speaks of
regarding the level of protection and public
safety being greater here than in Toronto.
Judging from the amount of street crime
in Ajax, I don’t see how my protection level
and public safety is increased by a helicop-
ter.

Teachers deserve support
To the editor:
Re: Teachers and extracurriculars.
Everyone has heard about how the gov-
ernment has treated our teachers. The only
way for the teachers to let their displeasure
be known is to stop all of their volunteering
at after-school activities.
That means no more after-school sports,
music, plays, etc. If you don’t already know,
these are all volunteer activities for teach-
ers. The students really dislike this turn of
events, but the fault lies with the premier
of Ontario, not the teachers. Most of the
students probably do not realize that after-
school activities are mostly voluntary. I
know I did not know this when I went to
school.
Teachers have enough on their plate and
yet they still volunteer. That is why you
must not be upset with the teachers: they
have had enough and deserve our sup-
port. A lot of parents do not know or do not
understand that the teachers have and are
responsible for, sometimes, 150 students at
a time. They also have to prepare lessons
and mark papers and have parent-teacher
interviews. Please support the teachers.

Though not quite to the scale of staging
an Olympics Games, the Pan Am and Para-
Pan Am Games will see thousands of able-
bodied and disabled athletes from around
the world converging on communities in
the Greater Toronto Area, including sites
here at home in Ajax, Whitby and Oshawa.
The Games represents the best, highest
profile events Durham Region municipali-
ties have hosted.
In Ajax, its top-notch outdoor baseball
complex will be home to softball and base-
ball competitions. In Whitby, the state-of-
the-art Abilities Centre will host judo and
boccia competitions, while boxing events
are being hosted in Oshawa.
Federal Finance Minister and Oshawa-
Whitby MP Jim Flaherty noted recently that
the Games will bring economic benefits
to Durham and the Greater Toronto Area.
Construction of new facilities and upgrades
at existing ones, such as the Ajax Sports-
plex, will create jobs and improve legacy
facilities. The athletes, coaches and family
members who accompany them will bring
much-needed tourism dollars to Durham.
But the opportunity to showcase Durham
Region, its municipalities and its environs,
is priceless in terms of the returns that could
be realized, whether as a place to relocate a
family or business, as a place to return for a
holiday, or as a place to forge new political,
commercial or industrial ties.
However, let us not forget the Games
themselves and what they represent to the
athletes who will be competing.
They bring with them their best hopes,
years of training and competition and a
spirit of sportsmanship. Let us welcome the
international visitors and the athletes, cel-
ebrate their commitment, marvel at their
skill and cheer them on.
The Pan Am and Parapan Am Games pro-
vide us each with an opportunity to witness
the spectacle of such a mammoth under-
taking, fuelled by the passion of those sin-
gularly focused on their sport of choice.
We’re still a ways off from the start of the
Games, but work continues here at home to
make it happen and make it a success.
In the parlance of coaches and executives
everywhere, it’s a win-win for everyone.

A message
from Durham
Tourism
Kerri King
Normally at this time of year, the
National Hockey League pre-
season has just wrapped up and
hockey fans across Canada are
right into regular season games.
But with this year’s lockout,
there’s no NHL hockey on tele-
vision. Luckily for residents
of Durham Region, there’s no
shortage of action in our area.
There’s nothing like root-root-
rooting for one of Durham’s
home teams.
Spectator sports have a strong
history in Durham and are only
getting more exciting with the
recent addition of a Nation-
al Basketball League team and
two Canadian Lacrosse League
teams.
The Oshawa Generals hockey
team is hot this year, starting the
season as the top team in the
Ontario Hockey League. Young
and old delight during the Gens’
action-packed hockey games,
which take place at the General
Motors Centre. For more infor-
mation, visit www.oshawagen-
erals.com.
The Oshawa Power Basketball
Club is quickly becoming a well-
known name in the community
for its entertaining games and
community spirit.
Catching an Oshawa Power
game at the General Motors
Centre is a great family outing
at an affordable price. For more
information, visit www.osha-
wapower.ca.
The Canadian Lacrosse League
is a professional indoor lacrosse
league that launched this past
year. Watch for their season to
start in January. Two Durham
Region teams play out of the
General Motors Centre -- the
Oshawa Machine and the Dur-
ham Turfdogs. For more infor-
mation, visit www.canadianla-
crosseleague.com.
Who needs the NHL when
you’ve got this much action-
packed live sport close to home?

Fall is in the air and before the cold
winter weather sets in, it’s time to take
a good look at your windows. Old or
improperly installed windows can allow
cold drafts into your home, giving you
the chills and increasing your heating
bill.
There are several benefits to
having new windows and doors in your
home. First, they improve the overall
look of your house and increase its value.
New windows and doors are also much
more energy efficient, which means
you can keep your heating and air conditioning
inside, reducing your monthly bills.
It may be tempting to pick up some
windows and install them yourself, but you may
find that you’re not getting the highest quality
windows and the installation is trickier than it
seems. Even if you buy the best windows on
the market, if they are not installed and sealed
properly, they essentially become worthless.
“If a window or door is not installed
properly, you can get drafts coming into the
house,” explains Wayne Hutchinson, owner of
Durham Windows and Doors. “I often get calls
from people who have tried to install windows
themselves or have used a friend or family
member to come out and fix the installation.”
Homeowners can save themselves the cost
and trouble by having their windows and doors
done properly the first time. Specializing
only in windows and doors, Wayne and
his staff have earned a reputation for
their great work.
Wayne will come to your house
to measure and will bring with him
samples of the windows that he has
available. Not only can you shop from
the comfort of your own home, but you
can also see exactly how the windows
will look.
“After being in this business for
34 years, I can honestly say these are the finest
windows on the market,” says Wayne. “They’re
triple sealed to reduce air leakage and come with
heavy duty hardware.”
All of the windows come with a lifetime
warranty on the frame, hardware and glass.
Homeowners may also be tempted to
hire a company that is
willing to work under the
table. The problem is
that while they may save
money short-term, it could
cost them everything in
the long run. If a worker
is not insured and gets
injured in your home,
you are liable. Fly by
night companies also won’t be around to honour
warranties or help with any issues that come up.
All of the installers at Durham Windows
and Doors are staff, not subcontractors, are fully
insured and have their WSIB certificates.
Durham Windows and Doors is located
at 696 King Street West in Oshawa. For more
information, please call Wayne at (905) 579-
2222 or 1-888-576-8575 or visit the website at

Trudeau makes campaign stop in Pickering
SABRINA BYRNES / METROLAND
PICKERING -- MP Justin Trudeau greeted guests at the Waterfront Bistro during a
stop as part of his Liberal leadership campaign hosted by the Ajax Pickering Federal
Liberal Association.
“As flattered as I am by all the attention, I
know full well it’s not about me. What we’re
seeing is a concretization of the hopes all
Canadians have that politics can be better,
that we can be better and that we deserve
better than what Ottawa is offering us right
now.”
Mr. Trudeau pointed to the public’s cyni-
cism with politics, the economy, lack of
opportunities for young people and increas-
ing unemployment as key challenges going
forward and emphasized the importance of
a strong middle class.
“A strong economy is one in which the
most amount of people have the best jobs
possible,” he explained. “We need to focus on
maintaining and enhancing a strong middle
class. The key to Canadian unity has never
been the political class, it has always been
the middle class.”
Mr. Trudeau met with a group of about 40
students from schools across Durham fol-
lowing his speech to discuss issues such as
high tuition, debt and lack of job opportuni-
ties for youth. He pointed to the roundtable
as an example of what is needed in politics.
“The challenge we’re facing is a level of
cynicism surrounding politics that leaves
Canadians disconnected,” Mr. Trudeau said.
“Only one thing is going to get us back on
track, and that is to stop worrying about the
party and start worrying about the country.
We need to get to work right across the coun-
try to earn the trust and confidence of Cana-
dians.”
Former Liberal MP Mark Holland, who
co-hosted the event with fellow Liberal Dan
McTeague, described Mr. Trudeau’s cam-
paign as not only an opportunity to build
policies that will directly impact the Canadi-
an public, but also a re-imagining of the Lib-
eral party.
“What we want to do is build a movement,”
he explained. “I hope people take away the
sense that something really exciting is hap-
pening here. This party is ready to re-invent
itself.”
Pickering resident Sandra Norris had high
hopes for Mr. Trudeau, recalling the charis-
ma of his father, former prime minister Pierre
Elliot Trudeau, during a campaign stop at the
CNE in the 1970s.
“I was walking down a staircase and saw
him and was like ‘Oh my, that’s Pierre Elliot
Trudeau!’ and right then he looked up at
me and winked, and I’ve been a Liberal ever
since,” she said, laughing at the memory.
“I think it’s fantastic that Justin’s running,
I think if there’s any hope of getting young
people out to vote he’s it. He can speak to
young voters.”
Ajax resident Janet Kaminsky came out
with her daughter to hear Mr. Trudeau
speak. Although she was wary when he
first announced his candidacy, worried he
would skate by on a famous name, she said
his speech convinced her he was leadership
material.
“He showed us a vision,” she said. “He put
politics aside and focused on the people of
this country and working together. I was very
pleased with what I saw, it was inspiring.”

Variety the spice of life for artist
Janice Brown
showing at ACA
show Oct. 19 to 21
MIKE RUTA
mruta@durhamregion.com
AJAX -- Ajax artist and art teacher Janice
Brown works in a variety of media and
gets a thrill in sharing her experience with
others.
“I just love to get people’s interest going
in different things and showing them
there’s so many ways to get into art,” she
says.
The British-born Brown is among the
Durham artists showing and selling their
work at Ajax Creative Arts’ Fall Show and
Sale, Oct. 19 to 21.
She paints in a variety of media and
styles, sculpts, works in glass and makes
jewelry.
“One of the things I’m doing at the
moment is abstract art,” Brown says.
“I will be showing some abstract work
I’ve been doing (at the ACA show). I find
people really relate to that well.”
She says she’s developing a new form
of abstract “with a touch of realism in it.”
Brown explains that while a realistic land-
scape painting and an abstract work might
appear worlds apart, there are many simi-
larities in the set up: each has a structure,
a point of perspective, the artist must con-
sider the contrast between light and dark
and so on. You understand what she’s
talking about when looking at some of her
mixed-media abstract works at her web-
site, 17designs.webs.com.
Brown finds the abstract genre is a great
way of introducing students to art because
“it lets people feel free” about what they’re
painting and loosens them up. They’re not
so concerned with getting the details right
as in, for example, a landscape, and can
focus on the basics: light, colour, perspec-
tive.
“It’s solving the problems that you’re
going to find later in other forms and fine-
tuning your mind to see things in a differ-
ent way,” she says.
Along the way, what students learn can
be applied to other genres, even paintings
done centuries earlier. Brown likes to point
out the connection between abstract art
and, for example, the masters, the com-
mon language and issues for the artists in
paintings seemingly so different.
“I like the connection between the old
and the modern,” she says.
“It helps them relate to what they’re
doing now.”
In her own work, Brown says she likes to
go with her gut in deciding what subject to
choose, in which style it will come to life
and whether it will be an abstract piece or
a more realistic one. To some extent, she
says the subject matter determines the
medium.
A creative life is not something foreign
to her. Brown says her father could build
anything out of wood and the piece would
then go to her mother to be decorated.
“I grew up with it,” she says. “To me, it’s
completely natural. Anything I can do with
my hands and that has a bit of colour, I am
there.”
Brown says she often paints at Ajax Cre-
ative Arts’ meeting times on Wednesdays
and Thursdays.
The art show is at the Village Communi-
ty Centre, 22 Sherwood Rd. W., Ajax. The
show hours are Friday 10 a.m. to 9 p.m.,
Saturday 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. and Sunday 10
a.m. to 4 p.m. Admission is free and there’s
a free draw for an original painting.

Kreviazuk and Maida play Durham Oct. 20
‘My wife and I are
big advocates for
mental health’
Will McGuirk
newsroom@durhamregion.com
OSHAWA -- Chantal Kreviazuk has been
engaged with mental health issues for
much of her life. The 38-year-old’s struggle
with depression is documented in song,
film and in interviews.
Overcoming the stigmas around men-
tal health is a cause close to the heart of
the mother of three boys. It is one that has
found a steady partner in her husband,
Raine Maida, lead singer for Our Lady
Peace. Between them, the Canadian music
power couple has won half a dozen JUNOs
and written or co-written for such interna-
tional stars as Avril Lavigne, Kelly Clarkson
and Carrie Underwood.
In 2010, Kreviazuk gave a live perfor-
mance and talk for Ontario Shores Centre
for Mental Health Sciences in Whitby.
Maida and Kreviazuk are at the Regent
Theatre Oct. 20 to perform as part of the
5th annual Ontario Shores Imagine Arts
Festival.
“(Ontario Shores community relations
officer) Chris Bovie and I have been speak-
ing for close to two years about doing
something about mental health in gener-
al,” Maida explains over the phone from
Los Angeles. “My wife and I are big advo-
cates for mental health and we’ve been
trying to find the right event. This Oshawa
event seems like the right thing.
“If you have personal experience then
you can offer advice, take advice, a dia-
logue can take place. People can learn
from these kinds of shows.
“It is music based but there are no strings
with having a conversation if the evening
permits. There will be my solo work, some
Our Lady Peace and Chantal’s work. It will
be a combination. Very free form.”
Ontario Shores has frequently employed
musicians to explore the issues around
mental health. Steven Page was a guest
speaker in 2012 and talked openly about
his depression in an interview with Dan
Carter. Lowest Of The Low played the
2012 Mindful Music community outreach
event.
“Music is a great release and a great way
to direct questions and emotions,” says
Maida. “We have very serious issues in our
family that run the gamut so that music
in some way can be healing. For us it can
be a vehicle to express without having to
talk about it in certain terms. Even just the
writing of it can be therapeutic.
“All of our boys are musically inclined
and there is a value for me in watching
them be musical,” he continues. “Wheth-
er they want to pursue a career or not, and
we have never pushed them on one, hav-
ing music as a tool to sort out emotions is
very valuable.
“My oldest son writes his own songs and
having that, it is cheaper than meds. My
hope is that they have something like that
as they get older.”
Maida and Kreviazuk spend many hours
together in their home studio working,
writing, producing as well as dealing with
their own issues as a couple.
“Our inspiration comes from that kind
of struggle, from the forthrightness to take
on the challenge. I wouldn’t wish them
on anybody but it is these things that are
authentic to our lives and that is how we
represent ourselves,” he says. “It means
delving into the darkness of it, the circular
fashion of it, but a lot of our music is about
celebrating the small victories.”
Tickets for Maida and Kreviazuk’s
Oshawa concert are available at 905-721-
3399, ext. 2 or online at tickets.regentthe-
atre.ca.

Ajax Wanderers
rugby player to
represent Canada
VICTORIA -- The back-to-back Cana-
dian Rugby champion Ontario Blues
have taken the lion’s share of selec-
tion for Canada at the Americas Rugby
Championships, which get going this
week in Victoria.
Ten players and two staff make up
over a third of the Canadian contingent
as Canada will try to better the second
place finish achieved in Argentina two
years ago.
All 10 players are graduates of the
Ontario junior provincial system and
there are several newcomers to senior
international rugby.
Veterans Doug Wooldridge and Tyler
Ardron were both capped as recently
as the June test window, but six play-
ers are getting their first look in the
national senior set up.
They include Toronto Scottish prop
Creag Johnston, Oakville flanker
Alistair Clark, Niagara Wasps hooker
Ray Barkwill, Barrie centre Jordan Wil-
son-Ross, Lindsay eight man Seb Pear-
son and Balmy Beach prop/lock Jacob
Rumball.
The other two named to the roster are
Whitby’s Kyle Armstrong of the Ajax
Wanderers and Liam Underwood of
Balmy Beach, who were on the Cana-
da squad for June but did not get game
time.
In addition, Blues head coach Chris
Silverthorn will be an assistant to Can-
ada head coach Kieran Crowley, while
Blues manager Mark Winokur will
manage the side.
“This is an incredible accomplish-
ment for the Blues program and the
entire High Performance program in
Ontario. On behalf of Rugby Ontar-
io we congratulate our repeat cham-
pions and offer continued success to
our Blues players selected to represent
Canada in the ARC Competition,” said
Rugby Ontario president Dom Scug-
lia. “We are very proud of the dedica-
tion and commitment our players and
staff have invested to generate the suc-
cesses we have had and wish the entire
team great success in Langford.”
Canada assembled at Shawnigan
Lake last weekend and will face Uru-
guay -- who the Blues beat in Montevi-
deo 27-16 this past May -- on Friday at
Westhills Stadium in Langford, B.C.

Stoneburgh helps
Boston University to win
CHESTNUT HILL, MASS. -- Sophomore
defenceman Shannon Stoneburgh of
Pickering scored the opening goal for her
No. 6-ranked Boston
University in a 4-2 win
over Boston College.
Stoneburgh scored
the first goal of the Ter-
riers’ 2012-2013 cam-
paign at the 2:28 mark
of the first period when
her shot from the top
of the left circle snuck
through Corinne Boyles’
(24 saves) five-hole.
As a freshman last season, Stoneburgh
appeared in 36 games, finishing the season
with two goals and one assist to go along
with 32 minutes in penalties. Her first col-
legiate goal came in the Beanpot title game
against Northeastern.
The 19-year-old graduate of St. Mary Cath-
olic Secondary School was a Team Ontario
member in 2008 and 2009, and won Provin-
cial Women’s Hockey League titles with the
Toronto Aeros in 2010 and 2011.
Grant, Colaire leading
Kiski football team
SALTSBURG, PA -- The Kiski School’s Rae-
kwon Grant of Ajax and Trystan Colaire of
Pickering represented Durham Region well
as the Cougars football team challenged
Boys’ Latin School in a nail-biting 17-15 loss
in Baltimore, MD.
Grant, a junior, led the team in rushing
with 46 yards on 14 carries and a 10-yard
touchdown run. Colaire,
a senior, scored the
other touchdown, catch-
ing a 68-yard pass from
quarterback Darrik Mar-
tin. Colaire, who plays
both sides of the ball,
also had an interception
in the game, his sixth on
the season.
Head football coach
James Perry said, “Rae-
kwon is one of the hard-
est runners I have seen
in years, and Trystan
gives us a great option
over the top when teams
try to stop the run.”
The week prior, the
Cougars won their
homecoming game
34-21 over Pennsylvania
rival Mercersburg Acad-
emy. Grant had more than 150 yards rush-
ing with two touchdowns. Colaire matched
Grant with two receiving touchdowns.
The Kiski School is an all-boys’ college pre-
paratory boarding school located approxi-
mately one hour west of Pittsburgh. The
school, with just over 200 students, accom-
modates boys from grades 9-12 as well as
post graduates.

tled for the ball in the Notre Dame/Denis O’Connor Invitational Junior Boys’ Soccer
Tournament at the Ajax Community Centre Fields.Ratcliffe part of junior national team
OTTAWA -- Baseball Can-
ada announced earlier this
week the 31-player Junior
National Team roster that
will compete in the annual
Fall Instructional League
Camp, running Oct. 11-21
in Orlando, Florida.
The camp includes daily
practices and an exhibi-
tion schedule against Fall
Instructional League clubs
from the Atlanta Braves,
Detroit Tigers and Toron-
to Blue Jays organizations.
The schedule also includes
one intrasquad game and
a match-up with Stetson
University in Deland, Flor-
ida.
Among those of note on
the roster include Brook-
lin’s Nathan Borges, a
17-year-old right-handed
pitcher, while Bowman-
ville’s Brodie Harkness, a
17-year-old lefty, is also on
the roster.
Those two are joined by
Whitby’s JD Osborne, a
17-year-old outfielder, and
Sean Ratcliffe, a 17-year-
old catcher from Ajax.
Games against the Braves
and Tigers will take place
at ESPN Wide World of
Sports in Orlando, while
the juniors will travel to
Dunedin, Florida to take

Bobby Mattick Complex.
The Fall Instructional
League signifies the begin-
ning of a new cycle for the
Junior National Team pro-
gram which saw all but
five players graduate the
program following a silver
medal finish at the IBAF
18U World Championship
last month in Seoul, Korea.
“The Fall Instructional
League camp will allow the
coaching staff to evaluate
players in a competitive
environment,” said head
coach Greg Hamilton.
