He just returned to Pickering after a cross-country drive in a beaver car. SABRINA BYRNES / METROLAND Pickering man looks to land Best Job in World Resident in Top 25 of worldwide Tourism Australia contest MOYA DILLON mdillon@durhamregion.com PICKERING -- Residents of Pickering’s Maple Ridge Drive neighbourhood can rest assured they haven’t been invaded by giant rodents, it’s just Drew Sellen’s beaver car. Mr. Sellen, 28, transformed his car into a giant beaver for a cross-country drive from Vancouver. The trip is part of his campaign to land the Best Job in the World, a wildlife caretaker position on Australia’s Kangaroo Island that is being offered as the grand prize of a worldwide contest. “I love being outdoors so it was kind of a no-brainer to at least try,” said Mr. Sellen, 28.

Registered Counsellor ®MONEY PROBL MS?E 10 Convenient Locations:Ajax - Barrie - Brampton - Hamilton - London - Mississauga - North York - Oshawa - Scarborough & Toronto/Downtown Ajax councillor Ashby pleads guilty Admits not having liquor licence for nightclub Keith GilliGan kgilligan@durhamregion.com AJAX -- Councillor Renrick Ashby has pleaded guilty to operating a bar without a liquor licence. Coun. Ashby, the Ward 2 local councillor, entered guilty pleas through his lawyer to three charges in pro- vincial court on Tuesday and was fined $2,000 for each offence, along with a victim of crime surcharge. He was given one year to pay the fines. Last week, he pleaded guilty to violating the municipal bylaw of not having a liquor licence for the premises and was fined $2,500. He wasn’t in court. In an interview, Coun. Ashby said, “The circumstances are unfortunate and I do regret that. As president of the company, I take responsibility and ownership of this. I plead guilty, took ownership and errors were made.” He plans to stay on as a councillor. “I do fully intend to continue on in my capacity as a councillor,” he stated. The charges were laid in January following a liquor compliance sweep that found his nightclub operating without a liquor sales licence in December. Coun. Ashby is president of Nexx Nightclub and Lounge Inc., which was located in the Ajax Plaza, across the street from the Town hall. In December, Durham Regional Police officers, bylaw officers, firefighters and the Alcohol and Gaming Com- mission of Ontario swept through several establish- ments in Ajax and Pickering. One of those targeted was Nexx. In a joint submission between the Crown and defence, Crown attorney Veronica McGuire said on Dec. 31, Durham police officers went to Nexx and asked to see the liquor licence. A representative of the club spoke with Coun. Ashby on the phone and then told police a licence had been issued, but had been sent to the wrong address. Police checked with an official with the AGCO and were told no liquor licence had been issued. Ms. McGuire said police officers were “led on quite the merry little dance to find out if there was a licence.” By pleading guilty, Coun. Ashby “saved the communi- ty any number of hours and days for a trial,” she added. Bev Graham represented Coun. Ashby in court and said Coun. Ashby no longer owns the club. The club also pleaded guilty to three charges related to not having a liquor licence. The Crown and defence both agreed to a suspended sentence. Charges against Erica Ashby and Permell Ashby were withdrawn. Justice of the Peace Maxine Coopersmith said, “I can understand someone wants to be an entrepreneur. The business is not illegal.” The offences were serious and someone can’t operate such a facility “without going through the proper steps,” she noted. du r h a m r e g i o n . c o m Ne w s A d v e r t i s e r • Ma y 9 , 2 0 1 3 4 AP Darryl Sherman 3rd Generation Owner 20 Centre St. N.DowntownOshawa 905-723-2255 www.wilsonfurniture.com FREE PARKING(ask for tokens) SALE $1199 SLIMLINEROCKER RECLINER RECLINING ALL LEATHER CLUB CHAIR POWER LIFT RECLINER SALE $1299 SOLIDWOODDINING UP TO 50%OFF ALL FLOOR MODELS!

Inappropriate behaviour is taken very seri- ously.” Durham police were reacting to the publishing of a video that depicts cops interacting with two men in Oshawa in 2011. During the exchange one officer appears to be confrontational, inviting one man to start a fight while showering him with profanity. A transcript, in the form of typed subtitles on the video, suggests the officer threatened to beat the man up. The video appears to have been captured by a camera positioned near the door of the resi- dence. Mr. Selby said Wednesday the eight-minute video depicts just a portion of the interaction between the cops and the citizens. The officers went to the house in response to “a community safety issue”, he said. No charges against civilians were laid, he said. “The video depicts a portion of the exchange, but certainly not the entire incident,” Mr. Selby said. “The entirety of the interaction was considered and weighed by the professional standards branch.” No public complaint was made about the con- frontation but police became aware of the posting of the video online in April 2012. An investigation was launched by the service’s professional stan- dards branch at the request of Chief Mike Ewles. “Within 30 days discipline had been determined,” Mr. Selby said. Because the case was handled as a matter of inter- nal discipline rather than a full-blown Police Ser- vices Act tribunal, the service cannot identify the officer or the penalty, Mr. Selby said. He said the officer has returned to “frontline” duties. On Wednesday, the Toronto Star identified the officer as Constable Jamie Ebdon. He was docked two days’ pay, the newspaper reported. Mr. Selby said the disciplinary process was launched because of the confrontational nature of the exchange and the officer’s repeated use of profanity. “You can’t defend that kind of behaviour,” he said. “As soon as the chief was aware of the video, he ordered an investiga- tion.” du r h a m r e g i o n . c o m Ne w s A d v e r t i s e r • Ma y 9 , 2 0 1 3 5 AP TRY THE iPADORDERINGSYSTEM! 1105 KINGSTON RD., PICKERING • 905-839-9888 ALL YOU CAN EAT JAPANESE SUSHI & THAI OPENING MAY 11TH!

Late last month, the federal government announced several grants under the New Horizons for Seniors program, which provides money for programs that engage seniors in the community. “Our government recognizes the diversity of skills, knowledge and experi- ence that seniors contribute to our society and the economy,” said MP Corneliu Chisu. “Through initiatives such as the New Hori- zons for Seniors Program, we are helping to ensure that seniors maintain a high quality of life and continue as active, participating members of their communities.” Among the grants are $25,000 for The Fam- ily Worship Centre, which will use the money to provide computer training for seniors, teaching them how to use online resources such as Internet banking and social media. The AFROPAN Community Campus Group will use its $25,000 grant to initiate a program that partners seniors with at-risk youth for mentoring during a unique cooking program, while the City of Pickering will receive $24,760 for a project that will pair seniors with youth for computer training in an effort to boost social participation. The Pickering Rouge Canoe Club also received $25,000, which it has used to purchase a new dragon boat for a masters program aimed at giving retired ath- letes a place to paddle, or giving newcomers to the sport an outlet to learn. While the funding resulted in ample new opportunities for seniors, youth weren’t left out. Mr. Chisu also announced $67,595 for the Youth Education Arts and Health Foundation to help area youth find employment. VISIT US AND SAVE BIG!2013 CLEAROUT NOW ON!

Our elderly residents aren’t just living longer, they’re doing stuff, taking chanc- es and following their dreams when other, much younger folks are planted on the couch night after night after supper, watching Survivor and the like. Ms. Culver, 73, moved to Pickering after the death of her husband. Retired and liv- ing in Pickering’s Nautical Village, she sat and watched the world go by. But one day she decided it was time to stand up and get involved again. Ms. Culver purchased retail space across the street from her home and, with the help of family, in particular daughter Mich- lynn Walton, transformed a former con- venience store into Grandad’s ice cream shop. The shop had its grand opening last weekend. It’s a family affair, with Ms. Culver the owner, Ms. Walton the manager and sev- eral of Ms. Culver’s grandchildren work- ing behind the counter. Other family members and friends are also supporting the venture. And let’s not forget Mr. Culver, who was a sailor. Apart from the store’s name, the retro shop is designed around a nautical theme, further paying tribute to him. It’s obvious- ly a great fit in the Nautical Village, on Liv- erpool Road near the lakefront. Will the store be a success? Will the demand be such on the warm and sunny days to come that people will be lined up? We certainly hope so. But this much is certain. For Ms. Culver to take this leap, to turn down a comfort- able seat with a window on the world to become a business owner is a wonderful thing to behold. She says she wasn’t ready to retire yet. “I have a reason to get up now; it gave me something I like to do,” Ms. Culver says. “I think I’ve always been young at heart and young thinking, this just proves you’re never too old to do something.” How often have we heard this? Namely, that someone retires with the thought of taking it easy but finds they want to get back into the mix of things. However the lesson here is that age is no barrier if you have a dream, a zest for life and the support of family and friends to make it happen. It never was, perhaps it just took today’s seniors, a woman like Ms. Culver, to prove the point and give those of us who are in our 40s and 50s something to ponder. -- Pickering News Advertiser We shouldn’t foot bill for propaganda To the editor: How on earth can the Canadian govern- ment use taxpayers’ money to run nega- tive ads against Justin Trudeau? Surely the Conservative party should be paying for this propaganda. If the Liberals, Green Party or NDP ran negative ads it would come out of their coffers. Another reason not to vote for Ste- phen Harper and his henchmen. Gordon Robinson Pickering Tired of roadside garbage in Pickering To the editor: I live in the Finch and Altona area. I am constantly complaining to Pickering’s cus- tomer care centre and my local represen- tatives about the amount of garbage along Finch from Altona all the way to Rosebank, on both sides of the road, from Finch and Altona to Woodview and along Woodview. The ditches are filled with debris and I am not talking about a few bits of garbage. It is disgusting. Customer care is always prompt in replying and telling me the issue will be addressed. I would invite my neighbours to do some complaining also. They must notice it as I do when I walk these areas. It is a mess. Each year I put in my request for the students to clean up my neighbour- hood as I see them in other areas but I have yet to see that happening. And I would ask the people who throw their fast-food wrappings and coffee cups to stop. I am sick of seeing this. What kind of people do this anyway? All I can hope is that this year something gets done. Marjorie Seymour Pickering Would it have been worth it? To the editor: On a recent Monday as I was walking my children to John Dryden P.S. in Whitby, I witnessed a light beige minivan drive in such a disgusting fashion I have to ask: Would it have been worth it if you had hurt somebody? I acknowledge that the westbound traf- fic was backed up on Rolling Acres as peo- ple tried to drop their kids off at school. Did you have to jump the line, driving into oncoming traffic twice down the street? Did you have to drive quickly into the school parking lot using the ‘Out Only’ driveway, once again driving into oncom- ing traffic as parents who had already used the Kiss and Ride were trying to leave? Did you have to park in the accessible parking spaces to drop your children off? Would the few minutes you managed to save have been worth it if you had hurt somebody?

The development would see 31 freehold units built around a common element road off Fair- port Road, backing onto Duffin’s Creek. The developer, Marshall Homes, will also be conveying about an acre of open space sur- rounding the creek to the City to be held for future public use as a park or trail. Brian Ross, representative for Marshall Homes, assured residents concerned about greenspace along the street and public access to the creek area that both elements would be looked after. “We are not planning to allow public access to the creek area through the development,” Mr. Ross said. He noted there would be a gate for city staff or Toronto and Region Conservation staff to access the lot but that it would be kept locked at other times. As for greenspace, the Marshall Homes rep- resentative noted that a three-metre strip of land along the roadway held for possible future road widening would be in addition to the required road setbacks, creating a larger greenspace fronting onto the roadway than required, which would be planted with trees or shrubbery. A final vote on the proposal will be held at the upcoming Pickering city council meeting on May 21. du r h a m r e g i o n . c o m Ne w s A d v e r t i s e r • Ma y 9 , 2 0 1 3 10 AP MOYA DILLON mdillon@durhamregion.com This is part two of a three-part series looking at the experienc- es of families living with autism spectrum diagnosis in Durham Region. DURHAM – As a baby, Bradley Red- head-Branigan would stand up in his crib, crying out for “Mama.” But after his first birthday, everything changed. “Imagine waiting two years to hear your child say ‘Mama’ again,” said Heather Redhead, recalling the onset of autism spectrum disor- der which robbed Bradley of what little language skills he had and set his development back significantly. “Each day’s a different battle,” Ms. Redhead explained. “On a good day Bradley’s like three kids, on top of my other two. I have a high tolerance of patience, but I have my own meltdowns too. Once a week I have a good cry, just to get it out of my system. It’s frustrating.” Now four, Bradley is undergoing speech language and occupational therapy to increase his limited vocabulary, improve motor skills and help him toi- let train. While Ms. Redhead has learned to navigate the complicated system of public and private therapy providers, new parents can find it overwhelming. “The day of his assessment we were given a list of people to call to get on wait lists,” said Osha- wa’s Ashley Aldred, whose son Trent was diag- nosed with ASD in September 2012. “It’s shocking and heartbreaking when you hear your child has ASD, you never want to admit there’s something wrong with your child,” she continued. “The diagnosis changed everything about our lives, we don’t get to do the things normal families get to do.” Attempts to access services, on top of the emotionally devastating diagnosis, can be frustrating. “It’s confusing the way the system works, there doesn’t seem to be any central place or anyone in charge,” she said. “It’s definite- ly taken over our lives.” Trent is facing up to a four-year wait for intensive behavioural intervention , the only long-term, provincially-funded treat- ment available in Ontario. IBI is an intense form of applied behav- iour analysis, the most common and scientifically-tested method of autism therapy, which teaches children through repetition and positive reinforcement. IBI consists of up to 40 hours a week of one- on-one treatment with a therapist. Across the province there are 1,700 children on the wait list for IBI, more than the 1,400 currently receiving the service. In Durham there are 264 families on the wait list. In an attempt to increase access to services, the provincial govern- ment began funding shorter blocks of ABA last year, designed to tide over families on the wait list. These blocks consist of two- to four-hour weekly sessions over a two- to six-month period and focus on one goal, such as language, communication, social skills or behaviour. For Trent, even that therapy is at least a year away. “It’s frustrating and upsetting,” Ms. Aldred said, noting that all experts agree early intervention is key to improving the long-term outcomes for children with ASD. “It’s heartbreaking because you can hear him screaming and crying because he’s in pain but we don’t know why, and we know it won’t get better until we can get services.” Private therapy options, which cost about $20 per hour, are unaf- fordable for most families. Adults with ASD face different challenges, including finding work and accessing support programs, which are generally aimed at younger children and teens. Emily McMorrow, who was diagnosed with Asperger’s syndrome at the age of 17, says people on the spectrum fight a constant battle against misconceptions. “Everyone’s experience on the spectrum is different, a lot of peo- ple on the spectrum don’t feel like they have a disability,” she said. “There’s an assumption that people are far less capable than they are.” If she could make people understand one thing, it would be how alien the world can feel for someone on the spectrum. “People think they don’t understand us, that we’re different, but we don’t understand them just as much,” she said, comparing the experience of living with Asperger’s to a constant feeling of oth- erness, such as being the only woman in a room full of men. “It affects us every day, from riding a bus to anything where we’re interacting with people, it’s a constant reminder of how different you are.” For parents of children with ASD, every day is reminder that their life is different from other families, but all are quick to point out that isn’t necessarily a bad thing. “He’s different, he’s very unique, but I wouldn’t trade him for the world,” said Ms. Redhead of Brad- ley. For the Aldreds, whose journey is just beginning, the sentiment is the same. “We don’t want to be complaining,” Ms. Aldred said. “We’re just hoping Trent will be able to live the best life he can in whatever way he can. If that means he’s going to be with us but he’ll be happy and healthy that’s great. If he can get married and get a job that’s great too.” “At the end of the day we can still smile and be thankful we have the children we have,” adds Steve Aldred, Trent’s father. “He is who he is and we wouldn’t want him any other way.” -with files from Torstar news services LISTEN to an audio slideshow @ durhamregion.com Part three of this series will look at autism services available in Durham Region and what is needed to meet rising demand for programs and services for individuals with ASD. Work here could contribute to future therapy improvements As the only applied behaviour analysis group with a university partner in the province, Durham’s service program is helping to fuel important research in autism therapy mod- els. Meghann Lloyd, a research associate at UOIT, has been working with communi- ty partners Grandview Children’s Centre, Lake Ridge Community Support Services and Resources for Exceptional Children and Youth on the ABA program, helping to moni- tor outcomes and collect data. “We’re the only region in the province that has a university partner and that makes Dur- ham different,” Ms. Lloyd said, noting that the program has research ethics approval, which allows them to use program data for research. “Parents of kids with disabilities are pret- ty attuned to the need for research because they realize their child can benefit from it, or another child down the line will.” Currently Ms. Lloyd is leading several grad- uate and undergraduate students in a pilot project analyzing the effect of motor skills improvement on social skills. “Research tells us children with autism spectrum disorder have poor motor skills, and they also by definition have poor social skills, but as kids you engage in social skills mostly through play, “ Ms. Lloyd explains. “So which came first? If we can improve motor skills, can we also improve social skills?” While the program is still in the pilot stages, Ms. Lloyd says there are reasons for excite- ment. “We have reason to be optimistic that this is helpful, we are seeming some small gains in social skills and motor skills,” she said. “That in itself is significant because the fundamen- tal motor skills of these children are delayed, so any improvement is welcome.” Ms. Lloyd is hopeful that data collected in Durham can be used in the future to help hone therapy models and ensure children with autism are receiving the right interven- tion at the right time. “We need more evidence to drive policy and Durham is able to be at the forefront of that,” Ms. Lloyd explained. “You can’t change policy without evidence and in order to get evidence you need to do research and get data. The time has come to be creative in how we develop and deliver services to these kids.” OSHAWA -- Trent Aldred, who’s been diagnosed with Autism Spectrum Disorders, often spends time at the window.

Oshawa native Greg Snell is also on the short list for the job. “I have a passion for sharing and exploring wild places; when I’m outside I feel at home,” said Mr. Sellen, who filmed himself transitioning from an office environment to wilder landscapes such as trails and parks for his video entry. As for the beaver car, the idea started as a joke, with friends reminiscing about the dog car from the film ‘Dumb and Dumber’. “It was put forward as a joke but I really took it to heart and went with it,” Mr. Sellen laughed. “I thought I was going to cause an accident on the highway, I kept noticing people trying to take a picture of it while driving.” The outlandish vehicle was a tool to draw atten- tion to Mr. Sellen’s blog at http://bestjobaustralia. blogspot.ca, where he wrote about stops at nation- al parks along the way. The outdoors and adventure are in Mr. Sellen’s blood. He points to early family camping trips and bike rides as the seed of his love for exploration, which he turned into a career with Laurentian University’s outdoor adventure leadership pro- gram. Since graduating, he has travelled across Canada, acting as an ice guide in the Yukon and a river rafting guide in Ottawa, among other jobs. “There’s a lot of great things about cities, but I don’t think I’ll ever live in one again,” Mr. Sellen said. The six-month, $50,000 wildlife caretaker job would involve taking care of the wildlife on the island and promoting it to visitors, something Mr. Sellen says he would excel at. “I love exploring new things, there’s so much cool stuff around the world,” he explained. “Outdoor travel and adventure are so important in your relationship to the world and the environ- ment, I think people should be doing more of it.” For more information, visit Mr. Sellen’s blog or search ParkRangerDrew on Twitter. PICKERING from page 1 Pickering adventurer on short list for top Aussie job Yes, students in Pickering are singing St. Monica School students joined to sing ‘Is Somebody Singing’ with Canadian astronaut on space mission BoBBy Perritt-Moungaloa bperritt@durhamregion.com PICKERING -- Students at St. Monica Catholic School sang with Canadian astronaut Chris Hadfield who is out of this world, commanding International Space Station. Mr. Hadfield, the first Canadian to command the International Space Station, worked with Canadian band Barenaked Ladies to develop the acoustic song ‘Is Somebody Singing’. Schools across Canada gathered at 12:30 p.m. Eastern Time on May 6, Music Monday, and watched a live broadcast of Mr. Hadfield sing the song from space. Students from kindergarten to Grade 8 at St. Monica didn’t catch the broadcasted event, but gathered outside looking at the sky as Mr. Hadfield made his way through space. “We thought it would be neat to have the blue skies above us,” said music teacher Mark Prior, who helped organize the event and practice the song with the school over the past three weeks. “This is something to help kids embrace music ... We’re really open to make a big splash.” Eight students played tambourines, guitars and drums while the rest of the school sang ‘Is Somebody Singing’ multiple times, pointing up at the sky. “I saw everyone participating and engaged ... They were enthusiastic and excited. We had parents come out and join,” said principal Mike O’Neill. He said neighbours stopped what they were doing in their yards and pedestrians smiled and gave thumbs up. “We’ve made our mark on the community for sure,” Mr. O’Neill added. The event was held on the ninth annual Music Monday, where students in music programs hold concerts in schools across Canada. But it was the first Music Monday for St. Moni- ca. “It’s definitely something we will continue. Our school has prioritized music education,” said Mr. O’Neill. du r h a m r e g i o n . c o m Ne w s A d v e r t i s e r • Ma y 9 , 2 0 1 3 12 AP Ear infections are very common in our pets due to the fact that their ear canals have both a horizontal &vertical component making it harder for debris to work itself out. Some possible causes of infections are underlying allergies, parasites,foreign bodies or irritations,&moisture.You may notice your pet scratching at their ears,shaking their head or holding their ears differently.Other symptoms may include a discharge from the ear,redness,or foul odour.Diagnosis of an infection often starts with taking a swab of the ear to examine under the microscope for parasites,bacteria,yeast... etc.Treatment of infections may include topical medications, ear cleaning,&occasionally oral medications as well.Compli- cations of untreated infections can include hematomas (blood pooling in the ear from ruptured vessels),severe inflammation,pain,ear drum damage,&even deafness.Regular re-checks of ear infections are recommended.

So what were 58 of these large, long-billed shorebirds doing at the Nonquon Lagoons near Port Perry last week? That was what Dan Kac- zynski and Carl Jennewein wondered when they reached the middle pond of the water treatment facility and found a whole flock of willets wading at water’s edge. Whoa, huge surprise. And exciting enough, when they posted the news on the Ontbirds hotline, to have birders rac- ing from far and near to view the rarities, known for their dramatic black-and-white wing pattern in flight. They were gone the next day -- likely the largest flock ever recorded in the GTA. I’ve seen willets on beaches all along the Atlantic, and from Baja and Bucerias to Bellingham along the Pacific. But I’ve never seen one in Durham Region. That’s the marvel of migration -- you never know what will show up when. Such as the American bittern that spent half an hour sitting on Georgina Carter’s back fence along Otter Creek in Whitby, then the whole afternoon in a neighbour’s yard. Bitterns are common nesters in wet- lands throughout cottage country, where their loud, galumphing calls are heard nightly in breeding season. But the large, long-necked, brown-streaked birds are seldom seen, being perfectly designed to hide in reeds and cattails. They migrate by night, so are never spotted in migration -- unless one stops off to rest in someone’s back yard. Moral of the story: keep your eyes and ears open everywhere you go in May, because you never know what weird and wonderful birds may appear. Rayfield Pye of Oshawa had 1,000 red-necked grebes and 400 horned grebes fly past a point near Whitby Harbour one evening, taking off for the north. Glenn Coady had perhaps the rarest sighting so far this spring, from the bluffs at Thickson’s Woods. He was scanning Lake Ontario with his telescope and noticed a cormorant swimming near a red-breasted merganser. Instead of dwarfing the mer- ganser, as our double-crested cormorants would, this one was almost the same size. Focusing in, Glenn saw it move its head in just the right way to reveal a white V edg- ing the orange cheek portion of its beak. It was a neotropic cormorant, a bird com- mon from Mexico through South America, but never before seen in the GTA. Was it irony or luck that Dan Kaczyn- ski, who’d found the willets at Nonquon Lagoons, happened to be passing by just then? Dan glanced into Glenn’s scope and saw the telltale white cheek V as well, just before the bird -- a lifer for Dan -- took off from the water and flew off around the point.

Durham outdoors writer Margaret Carney has more than 3,000 species on her life list of birds, seen in far- flung corners of the planet. margaret Carney Out Walking Oshawa dog a real hero Four dogs inducted into Animal Hall of Fame Kristen Calis kcalis@durhamregion.com The stories of Snickers from Oshawa and three other dogs inducted into the 45th annual Purina Animal Hall of Fame proves the great lengths pets will go to to protect their owners. Last March, this four-year-old border col- lie/pointer cross broke out of his Oshawa home after banging against the door repeat- edly when his owner collapsed. His owner, Gregory Gould, has chronic obstructive pulmonary disease and the machine that gives him air had stopped working. Snickers then broke through the barri- cade in the back yard, made his way over to the neighbour’s driveway, where he paced, barked incessantly and blocked the man who lives there from leaving for work. This prompted the neighbour to call police and the officers then found Mr. Gould col- lapsed on the ground and called paramed- ics. Snickers ran back into the home and loyally sat next to his master until the para- medics took him away and saved his life. Vicious, a 12-year-old border collie/Lab- rador cross from Trail, B.C., fought a cou- gar off of her owner, Angie Prime. The cou- gar had made its way into the house when Angie had the door open to let the pets in and out. The big cat pounced on Angie, but Vicious risked her own life by fighting the cougar off, and chased it out the open door and towards the greenbelt. Vicious amaz- ingly came back unharmed. Then there’s Bella from Milton, N.S. Last November, Chris Larocque was checking on his lunch in the oven when an ankle injury acted up. He fell and hit his head. To make matters worse, the cloth he had in his hand grazed the elements in the oven and caught fire, which moved up his arm, and onto his clothing. Chris desperately took off his shirt and threw it against the wall, causing the kitchen walls to catch fire. When Chris realized he couldn’t get up on his own, he desperately called for his dog, Bella. He was able to grab onto Bella’s collar and, with his coaching, she pulled him outside to safety. The Service Dog of the Year is Teak from Vancouver, B.C. One January evening, this eight-year-old German shepherd and his partner Const. Derrick Gibson responded to an armed robbery in progress. The sus- pect ran to an area busy with shoppers, but Teak caught the suspect, and brought him to the ground. When Const. Gibson caught up, he saw the suspect slashing Teak with a knife on the neck multiple times. The sus- pect finally dropped the knife when more officers came to the scene. Teak underwent two emergency surgeries and, miraculous- ly, has healed from almost all his wounds. The son of Snickers’ master, Jeff Gould, said his animal-loving family has always believed in treating pets like children. “The more time and effort you put in, the better finished product you’re going to have,” he said. He’s right. Respect your pets and give them the attention they need. Who knows? One day, they could end up saving your life. For past stories, visit purina.ca/about/ halloffame.

Trapper doesn’t see solution in Pickering trapping ban BoBBy Perritt-Moungaloa bperritt@durhamregion.com PICKERING -- The Ontario Fur Managers Federation wants to negotiate with a Pickering coun- cillor before he proposes a ban on trapping. Pickering Councillor Bill McLean said that he would consider a bylaw against trapping after a coyote suf- fered when caught in an illegal snare in Whitevale last month. Plans for a ban or an alternative solution have not been formally presented to the City at this point. Robin Horwath of Blind River, has been trapping for 35 years and serves as general manager of the Ontario Fur Managers Federation. He noted that the snare in Whitev- ale was already illegal because they are prohibited south of Hwy. 7. “The OFMF does not condone or support the illegal setting of traps or snares as the case in Pickering with the coyote,” he said. “Trappers have been an asset in cities and municipalities in managing wild- life populations and the control of diseases.” Along with snares, trappers can use instant-kill traps, designed to crush animals’ necks for a quick death. Snares are essentially noos- es designed to strangle animals that walk into them. Both snares and instant-kill traps must meet regulations set by the Agreement on International Humane Trapping, signed by the European Union, Canada and Rus- sia. Setting live traps and relocat- ing nuisance animals can be inef- fective, according to Mr. Horwath, because animals cannot be relocat- ed more than one kilometre, and relocation can spread deadly dis- ease between ecosystems. Mr. Horwath dismissed claims from the Association for the Pro- tection of Fur-Bearing Animals that camera footage reveals instant-kill traps are poorly designed and often lead to animal suffering. Mr. Horwath also said it would not make sense for the City to ban body-gripping traps in reaction to an incident with a snare, which is different in design. “This would leave (the OFMF) to believe that there is a hidden agen- da regarding trapping and (Coun. McLean’s) call for a ban on body- gripping traps is based on his per- sonal opinion or an activist organi- zation’s goal,” said Mr. Horwath. du r h a m r e g i o n . c o m Ne w s A d v e r t i s e r • Ma y 9 , 2 0 1 3 14 AP NOTICE OF THE PASSING OF AN AREA SPECIFIC DEVELOPMENT CHARGES BY-LAW FOR REGIONAL WATER SUPPLY AN D SANITARY SEWERAG E SERVICES AP PLICAB LE ONLY TO THE SEATON AREA BY THE REGIONAL MUNICIPALITY OF DURHAM TAKE NOTICE that the Council of The Regional Municipality of Durham passed Area Specific Development Charges By-law No.19-2013 for the Seaton Commu nity –Water Supply and Sanitary Sewerage Services on the 24th day of Ap ril, 2013 pursuant to Section 2.(1)of the Devel opment Charges Act,1997 (“Ac t”); AND TAKE NOTICE that any person or organization may appeal to the Ontario Municipal Board pursuant to Section 14 of the Ac t,in respect of By-law No.19-2013,by filing with the Regional Clerk of The Regional Municipality of Durham on or before the 3rd day of June,2013 a Notice of Appeal setting out the objection to By-law No.19-2013 and the reasons supporting the objection.

Durham students dig up history Kristen Calis kcalis@durhamregion.com PICKERING -- On land in north Pickering where an Iroquoia com- munity once lived, children from across Durham are learning about history by digging it up. Around 190 students from the Durham Catholic District School Board have been placed into small groups, meeting throughout the school year for special archeology- related activities and learning. The archeology program, an enriched learning opportunity for advanced learners who have been nominated by school staff, is in its fourth straight year. This year, an additional cohort of Aboriginal stu- dents from the intermediate grades is participating too. This month, students are exca- vating an 800-year-old Native site in Pickering, layer by layer, digging up history as they go. “It’s reaching back in time,” says Cathy MacDon- ald, a teacher at Father Leo J. Aus- tin Catholic Secondary School who leads the program. The children continue to find artifacts, such as post molds from former log houses, and pottery. The enthusiastic teacher encour- ages the students to develop cre- ative responses to the artifacts they find. “It’s not what you find, it’s where in context to what,” says Ms. MacDonald. “It’s problem solving and critical thinking.” Janice Teichroeb, an archeologist with the Toronto and Region Con- servation, and the field director for the site, explains the artifacts paint a detailed picture of the village dat- ing from 1275 to 1325, such as how long people lived there, and who exactly was living there. “One day we found juvenile pot- tery. It’s just evidence that there were kids living there,” she says. The kids get to learn “that untold story, this amazing story of what really went on,” says Ms. Teichroeb, emphasizing Pickering’s history started well before the Europeans settled in. Working hands-on gives the stu- dents a unique opportunity. “It’s multidisciplinary, it’s multi- cultural too,” says Ms. MacDonald. du r h a m r e g i o n . c o m Ne w s A d v e r t i s e r • Ma y 9 , 2 0 1 3 15 P Limit Of 4 Per Customer While Quantities Last • No Rainchecks 15.5" PRE-FILLED PLANTER$2188Reg. $29.99 33-0317-0 250 KINGSTON ROAD, EAST AT SALEM ROAD, AJAX 905-683-8473 AJAX STORE ONLY OUR GARDEN CENTRE IS FILLED WITH GREAT DEALS TO GET YOU GROWING! • Summer Camps • Sports •Tu toring • Equestrian • Golf • Skating • Special needs • Drama • Martial Arts and so much more SUMMERREGISTRATIONSHOW THISSATURDAY MAY11TH AT THEPICKERINGTOWNCENTRE Where&When PICKERING TOWN CENTRE ON SATURDAY MAY 11TH FROM 9:30AM- 6:00PM (LOWER LEVEL BY THE FOOD COURT)KEEP YOUR KIDS BUSY THIS SUMMER!

As one of Canada’s top mara- thon runners from 1995-2007, Mr. Raymer understands not only what it takes to get in shape, but also how to stay in shape. Competing internation- ally for Canada has given Mr. Raymer a unique insight as to how different cultures incorpo- rate fitness into their daily lives. Mr. Raymer is currently a trainer with the Abilities Cen- tre. He uses his experience and knowledge to provide clients with positive workouts and results. Stay tuned next week as we provide you with every- thing from stretching and sim- ple workouts to nutrition and breathing exercises on race day. Here is a breakdown of the series: • Starting out: Monday, May 13 Running is one of the few sports that requires very little in terms of equipment and cost. Often people have misconcep- tions about what it takes to be a runner or compete in a race. • Starting out: Tuesday, May 13 Training properly and safely is especially important when it comes to running. Since spring weather can be unpredict- able, training indoors can pro- vide some welcome relief while encouraging your commitment. • Stretching: Wednesday, May 15 It can be more impor- tant than your actu- a l race. Stretching is inte- gral to minimize inju- ries and promote recovery. • Thursday, May 16: Nutrition Eating right and maintaining a healthy balance is important when it comes to being active, however, it can be confusing. Proteins, carbo- hydrates and electrolytes are all things that equal safe training. For all those vegetarians and others with dietary restrictions, supplements are even more important to make sure you fuel the workout and maintain your body’s needs. • Supplemen- tary exercises and workouts: Friday, May 17 Running is a great full body workout, but chang- ing it up every now and then can help your long-term game. • Breathing: Saturday, May 18 Runners often focus on train- ing their legs and hearts, but forget about training the lungs. Having a tested and strong respiratory system can improve endurance through blood flow and oxygen to muscles. • Race day: Sunday, May 19 So you have trained for a race, and it’s finally here. Whether you are planning on a 5K walk or a half marathon, there are certain things you can do to prepare for that first step across the start- ing line. Running is more than a physical sport; lots of emotions can build up and it’s important to maintain your mental health from your first day, to race day.

Sabrina byrneS / Metroland Ajax’s Katie Parker turns page at Ontario legislature AJAX -- Politics almost ended Katie Parker’s term as a page in the Ontario Legislature. The Grade 8 student at Southwood Park Public School was serving as a page for then- provincial premier Dalton McGuinty who prorogued the legislature, ending the ses- sion. “It was pretty close there. I thought the house would go into recess (while she was serv- ing), but it didn’t. Thankfully, I got in,” she said. “I was lucky I got four weeks.” Q. Was being a Queen’s Park page fun? “It was amazing. I had so many great experience I would never forget. It was great to have those experiences.” Q. What did you think of the behaviour of MPPs? “It’s really funny. It’s crazy to think they would do that. I guess their opinion matters to them. I would definitely send some of them to the office.” Q. Do you like politics? “I like watching it. I wouldn’t want to have a job in there. I wouldn’t want to have that pressure on me all the time. Still, I find it interesting.” Q. Did you study while being a page? “I was in the page program. They would supplement (school work) when we weren’t in the chamber. I did math, English and sometimes French. I could also bring in other work a teacher gave me. I wasn’t that far behind in my work. It was easier to catch up.” Q. What do you want to do when you grow up? “I’m really interested in old things. I might want to be an archeologist. But, since I’m only 13, I can never be sure.”Katie Parker Q&A leeanna Mclean Videographer Videos @ durhamregion.com 19 OPEN HOUSEWeekend du r h a m r e g i o n . c o m Ne w s A d v e r t i s e r • Ma y 9 , 2 0 1 3 20 AP kia.ca SALES EVENTTNVEE SEALS OFFER E N D S M A Y 3 1 ST TNVEE SEALS 1Y 3AS MDNR EEFFO ST OR $4,0 00 IN CASH SAVINGS ON OTHER SELECT 2013 MODELS Ω UP TO%** ON SELECT 2013’s AND SELECT 2014’s RATES AS LOW AS UP T O A N AD DIT IONAL IN C A S H S A V I N G S ON S ELECT MODEL S¥ SGNIVAH SSAN CI SELD MOTCEEL SNO Offer includes delivery, destination, fees,$2,000 CASH SAVINGS ‡,$1,000 ECO-CREDIT°and $1,000 CLEAROUT BONUS¥.

Star Wars 3, the original series, Spider- man 3, the Tobey Maguire movies, Jurassic Park 3 and on and on. But there are always exceptions to the rule, like Iron Man 3. It follows the events of the alien invasion in Avengers. Our hero, Tony Stark, can’t sleep, has panic attacks and is just as arrogant as ever. A new villain, the Mandarin, is threaten- ing the world and after one of his attacks hits too close to home for Tony, our armoured hero throws down the iron gauntlet, chal- lenging him to a duel. When the Mandarin responds with full force, Stark is left to pick up the pieces and the movie’s action and comedy shifts into high gear. Robert Downey Jr. is terrific again as Stark but you get the feeling he demand- ed more screen time as Stark. During one scene, he channels his inner MacGyver to break into the Mandarin’s stronghold. Stark’s interactions with kids create some of the funniest lines. Like I said, Iron Man 3 is a good movie but I wouldn’t say great and after thinking about it for a day I was able to pinpoint why. I didn’t like the Mandarin story line. I won’t say any more so as not to give too much away. The cast does a good job and the movie leaves you wondering if Downey Jr. will be back for part four. Make sure you stay for the scene after the credits; it ties up one of the questions I had through the whole movie. Let me know what you thought of the movie at http://www.durhamregion.com/ blog/1335131. Watch for managing editor Mike Johnston’s next review. mike Johnston Managing Editor Movie Time GHF Productions brings popular musical to Scugog Chris hall chall@durhamregion.com SCUGOG -- A collection of Durham’s youth will showcase their talents starting this weekend when Les Miserables takes to the stage at Town Hall 1873 in Port Perry. Thirty-eight students from across Dur- ham, all under the age of 19, will bring the award-winning musical that tells the strug- gles of convict Jean Valjean to the Scugog stage for nine performances, beginning Fri- day. May 10. The school edition of the popular musical based on the novel by Victor Hugo will be presented by GHF Productions. It will run over the next three weeks at the Port Perry theatre. “Les Miserables is a show that a lot of peo- ple have an interest in and it will be a nice spin-off for Town Hall 1873’s 140th cele- brations” in 2013, explains director Tristan Smith. The show is made up entirely of Durham students, most of them around 15 years old, says Smith. A couple are 18 and 19, while the youngest is three, he says. “To have a three-year-old in the show is exciting,” says Smith. “There is some excep- tional vocal talent at the youth level in Dur- ham Region.” There will be 31 songs in the performance and some have been tweaked to reflect the age of the actors in the show, but the musi- cal has not been condensed, says Smith. Les Miserables tells the story of convict Jean Valjean, who seeks redemption dur- ing a time of political unrest in early 19th century France. The musical intertwines the themes of justice, equality, forgiveness, charity and, most importantly, love and how they touch the lives of people every day. Auditions for the show took place last summer and the cast has been practising nearly every Saturday since last Septem- ber. Some cast members portray four or five characters, says Smith. The play will also feature a seven-piece orchestra, made up almost entirely of students. “This is an all-around production that the kids can be proud of because it’s all their work,” says Smith. This will be his second stint as a direc- tor; Christena Wilson is the producer of the show. There will be 7:30 p.m. performances of Les Miserables on May 10, 11, 17, 18, 23, 24 and 25. Matinees at 1 p.m. will be offered on May 12 and 19. Tickets are $23 for adults and $18 for chil- dren 13 and younger. There’s a $2 discount on adult tickets for groups of 10 or more. Tickets can be purchased by visiting www. townhall1873.ca or calling 905-985-8181.

With the start of training camp slated for mid-August, you could make an argu- ment for both scenarios. One thing is for certain, with the amount of talent on the ice for the five sessions, the Panthers are sure to find a gem or two to take to main camp. “The talent was pretty good,” said GM/ head coach Mike Galati of the 100 play- ers and goalies assembled. “A few of the kids that we had AP’ed last year showed up and looked very good, so I’m happy about that. Overall it was a success. “We’re trying to find some guys we can invite to the main camp in August. You never know what you might find. There are always two or three kids that are sur- prises.” The Panthers are coming off a season in which they won 13 of 55 games in the Ontario Junior Hockey League, finishing 10th out of 10 teams in the North East Conference. There will be some holes to fill, as a handful of players move on due to graduation, while some trades at the deadline also opened up some spots. In the past, the Panthers have struggled to attract local players to stay and play for the hometown club, but the organization seems to be turning the corner on that trend. “It’s very encouraging,” said Galati of the interest level to play for the Panthers. “The last two rookie camps we’ve had over 100 kids, so the interest is there and we have to make the best of it.” Galati said the club will be holding weekly skates through the spring and summer, and expect to have 35 players in camp when it officially opens in mid- August. PICKERING -- Team Orange player Nicholas Petropoulos tried to knock the puck away from Team White player Vietri Carmine as the Pickering Panthers of the Ontario Junior Hockey League hosted their spring prospect camp for players born between 1993 and 1998. ryan Pfeiffer / Metroland DURHAM -- Several local players and some with connections to area teams received their first exposure to the hock- ey program at the national level. Hockey Canada invited 49 players to Canada’s national women’s program strength and conditioning camp last week at the University of Toronto. The invitation list included seven goaltenders, 15 defencemen and 27 for- wards, who participated in both on- and off-ice sessions, while also being intro- duced to Hockey Canada’s expectations in areas such as nutrition, mental condi- tioning, physical fitness, testing, training and other positive daily behaviours. Among the local players attending were Brooklin’s Kassidy Sauve (Durham West Lightning), Blackstock’s Kirsten Welsh (Whitby Wolves) and Courtice’s Kennedy Marchment (Durham West Lightning). Also getting an invite were Whitby Wolves players Hannah Baker (Trenton), Hailey Noronha (Newmarket) and Lau- ren Williams (Windsor), while Durham West Lightning’s Megan Quinn (Roslin) also made the grade. Players invited to the strength and conditioning camp are eligible for Can- ada’s national women’s under-18 team and Canada’s national women’s under- 22/development team. Following the camp, Hockey Canada scouts will con- tinue to evaluate players at national team camps in August, and as they compete with their club and school teams at pro- vincial and national events, such as the 2013 national women’s under-18 cham- pionship this November in Calgary. “We were thrilled to welcome these promising young players to our spring camp,” said Kalli Quinn, director of female national teams for Hockey Canada. “They not only worked on their strength and conditioning, but also learned about what it takes, on and off the ice, to play for Team Canada.” Canada’s national women’s program strength and conditioning camp consisted of five days of off-ice fitness training and on-ice sessions. The camp is considered an important first step in pinpointing the country’s future women’s hockey stars, including those who could one day be in the running to play for Canada’s national women’s team at events such as the IIHF ice hockey women’s world championship and Olympic Winter Games. Lightning players take part in national camp Optimism surrounds Ajax Ironheads as they prepare for season opener Jr. B lacrosse club welcomes back 16 players to opener Friday Brad Kelly bkelly@durhamregion.com AJAX -- Before the first faceoff of every season, there is optimism within an orga- nization that this could be the season. Talking with Ron Reed, the GM/head coach of the Ajax Ironheads, you get the same sense from him. And he has the evi- dence to back up his claim. The Ironheads will return 16 players from last year’s Jr. B roster when they open the season Friday in Orillia, fol- lowed by a trip to Newmarket on Satur- day. Among the mix is top scorer Adam Kelusky, who led the way with 34-25-59 point totals in 16 games, as well as James Malloy, Shane Takahashi, Dakota Watson, Patrick Morgan and Josh Kennedy. Among the defenders, the Morley brothers, Brandon and Ryan, as well as both goaltenders, Kadyn Pack and Matthew Law, are back. That’s a huge part of the nucleus. “It really is,” agreed Reed. “Hopefully we can keep all these guys and keep them happy. They’re excited about being back together.” The team has also added newcomers Mitch Robertson and Chris Martin from Whitby, and Matt Fountain from Clarington of the Jr. C league. Kyle McDermott, at six foot four, 210 pounds, will bring some size to the lineup. “We feel like we put some good pieces to the puzzle together here,” said Reed. “We feel coming out of the gate we should be competi- tive with just about anybody.” The home opener for the Ironheads will be next Wednesday against the Newmar- ket Saints at 8 p.m. at the Ajax Commu- nity Centre. You can’t control your family history, age, gender or ethnicity. But you can do something about other factors that could increase your risk of having a stroke, including maintaining a healthy weight, eating well, being tobacco-free, controlling your high blood pressure and controlling your blood cholesterol. Stroke occurs when the blood supply to part of the brain is cut off. Without oxygen-rich blood, brain cells begin to die. If the blood supply is not restored, the affected part of the brain dies, causing disability or death. According to the Heart and Stroke Foundation, you can help pre- vent a stroke by learning more about these risk factors: • High blood pressure – This is the number one risk factor for stroke, so it is important to keep your blood pressure in a healthy range. The Heart&Stroke Blood Pressure Action Plan is a free online tool that will help you achieve and manage a healthy blood pressure. You can find it at heartandstroke.ca/ehealth. • High blood cholesterol – By lowering your cholesterol, you can dramatically reduce your risk of heart disease and stroke. Ask your doctor about getting your cholesterol checked. Try to reduce the amount of fat in your diet and work some physical activity into your day. • Being overweight – If you are struggling with your weight, you are not alone. More than 60 per cent of Canadian adults are either overweight or obese. Increasing your fruit and vegetable intake as well as introducing 150 minutes of physical activity into your week can help you better manage your weight. • Unhealthy alcohol consumption – Drinking too much alcohol can increase your blood pressure and contribute to the development of heart disease and stroke. • Smoking – Both smoking and exposure to second- hand smoke can increase your risk for heart disease and stroke. Becoming tobacco-free has tremendous health benefits. • Stress – Too much stress can elevate your blood cho- lesterol or blood pressure and make it difficult to lead a healthy lifestyle. You can take a personal risk assessment online at makehealthlast.ca. du r h a m r e g i o n . c o m Ne w s A d v e r t i s e r • Ma y 9 , 2 0 1 3 30 AP It’s time to stop covering up that DURHAM DENTAL CENTRES In office services Others Services For Your Convenience -4 Locations Laser dentistryDentalImplantsZoombleachingIntraoralcamera (Before &after pictures)Electrosugery and cosmetic gum surgeryCosmeticveneering Orthodontics (Braces,Retainers,Invisalign)Crowns &Bridges/ Dentures,Root Canel Treatment,Nitrous Oxide Sedation (Laughing Gas), Wisdom Molar Extraction,White Fillings,All insurance Plans Accepted (Sent Directly) A Beautiful Smile is Always in Style www.durhamdentalcentres.com Languages Spoken:English,Arabic,French, Cantonese,Mandarin,Hindi Dr.Hany Shenouda Dr.Girish Deshpande Dr.Heba Eldabaa Dr.Valerie D’Silva Dr.Anne Soetikno Dr.Jin Feng Dr.Romani Nashid Dr.Patricia Lam Dr.Stephanie Fung Dr.Monir Mina Dr.David Leung (Periodontist) tyles in SyaA Beautiful Smile is Alw Durham Dental Centres General Dentistry AJAXTel:905-427-4280 PICKERINGTel:905-420-4006 135 Harwood Ave.N.,Suite 210Ajax,Ontario L1Z 1E8 720 Sheppard Ave.N.,Suite 8Pickering,Ontario L1V 1G5 HWY 2 HWY 401 H WY 40 1 DurhamDentalCentre DurhamDentalCentre Harwood Ave. Whites Rd.

TODAY AJAX 905-683-0707 PI C K E R I N G PI C K E R I N G AD V E R T I S I N G F E A T U R E When your car is dirty, it’s easy to head to the nearest car wash and shell out $10 - $15 for a drive-thru wash. But commercial washes don’t always do a great job and their brushes can hold onto to dirt and actually scratch your vehicle. The next time you want a clean car, bring it to Shammy’s Auto Detailing. They offer an express car wash, starting as low as $10 for an exterior wash, all done by hand. You can also opt to have the interior vacuumed, the windows cleaned, the rims washed and polished and the tires dressed - all while you wait! In less than half an hour, your vehicle will be hand washed, chamois dried and the interior will look like new. When it comes to making vehicles look their best, there is one place that the major car dealerships in Pickering turn to: Shammy’s Auto Detailing. Luckily, Shammy’s is also open to the public, which means you can have your vehicle looking and smelling like new! There are several different packages to choose from, or you can create your own custom package to suit your needs. The Silver package includes an exterior wash, clean rims, tires and wheel wells, clean windows inside and out, interior vacuum, interior wipe down and dress tires, starting from $29.95. The Gold package includes everything in the Silver package plus an interior shampoo starting from $120. To really make your vehicle shine inside and out, opt for the Platinum package, which adds a clay bar treatment, engine shampoo, exterior compound to remove light scratches and surface oxidization, high speed polish for a sparking shine, paint sealant applicant and minor paint touch-ups, starting at $150. Customers can also opt for fabric protection, an easy way to protect your vehicle’s fabrics from stains and spills. Treating the leather in your vehicle will help prevent cracking, stops the colour from fading and extends the life of the leather. To keep the new car shine, you can get paint seal protection, which will shield your paint from fading and excess oxidization. It also protects against acid rain, repels UV rays and prevents surface corrosion. Shammy’s offers free shuttle bus service for customers in Pickering, Ajax and Whitby. Shammy’s Auto Detailing is located at 933 Dillingham Road in Pickering. To make an appointment, please call (905) 831-2444 or for more information, please visit the website at www.shammysauto.com.
