Mr. Catto is heading to Pikangikum reserve in northwest Ontario to help with a housing project. RYAN PFEIFFER / METROLAND Plumber needed for upcoming mission to Pikangikum reserve MOYA DILLON mdillon@durhamregion.com PICKERING -- For Reverend Charles Catto, the story of Christ is a reminder that there are practical solutions to some of the greatest needs in life. “When I started my ministry and really began to study the life of Jesus I thought ‘this is the most practical guy ever,’ I mean, he’s a carpenter, I think theological colleges sometimes forget that,” Mr. Catto said. “Right now there is a desperate need in native communities for safe, warm, endur- ing homes. That’s a practical need we can fill.” Inspired by the bible, Mr. Catto helped to found the Frontiers Foundation, which provides housing solutions for native communities through portable sawmills and volunteer tradesmen who train residents to construct their own homes. The group has had four sawmills on site at the Kitcisakik reserve in Quebec for the last four years, where 26 homes have been finished and are now all occu- pied.

It’s Here.....THE FIAT 4 DOOR 500 L Few at Enbridge open house in Durham Pipeline reversal hearing set for fall Keith GilliGan kgilligan@durhamregion.com DURHAM -- Attendance has been sparse at a series of recent open houses hosted by Enbridge Pipelines about its Line 9 reversal proposal. Sessions hosted in Whitby and Clarington last week attracted 13 and seven people, respectively, while one in Port Hope the night before saw two people show up. Michelle Wasylyshen, public affairs manager, Ontario, Enbridge Pipe- lines, attributes the low turnout to the number of open houses the com- pany has held in the past 18 months about the proposal. Enbridge has filed an application with the National Energy Board to reverse the flow of oil in a pipeline, called Line 9, as it runs from Sarnia to Montreal. Currently, the oil flows from east to west and the compa- ny wants to change the flow to west to east. The underground pipeline passes through Durham in north Pickering, north Ajax, between Whitby and Brooklin, north Oshawa and through north Clarington, between Newcastle and Orono. The company has been involved in an extensive campaign to inform people of the plan, Ms. Wasylyshen said during an open house at the Whitby Curling Club. “For the most part, they under- stand the need. It’s Canadian oil for Canadians,” she noted. Oil currently shipped through the line is from North Africa and the Middle East, she added. “Economically, western crude is cheaper. It’s $23 to $25 per barrel cheaper. We can keep the benefits in Canada,” Ms. Wasylyshen stated. The one issue the company has heard about is the rupture of an Enbridge pipeline near Kalamazoo, Michigan in July, 2010. One million barrels of oil spilled into a creek and the Kalamazoo River and the com- pany is still involved in cleaning it up. Ms. Wasylyshen said company officials have vowed “this will never happen to our company again. We have new policies and procedures.” The NEB hearing into the reversal was to start in August, but has been pushed back to October. 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 • Ju n e 2 7 , 2 0 1 3 3 AP Durham College, the University of Ontario Institute of Technology (UOIT) and Ontario Shores Foundation for Mental Health (Ontario Shores) would like to extend their gratitude to Durham Region Chairman and CEO Roger Anderson for his ongoing support through his annual Charity Classic golf tournament.

RellingeR pjrellinger@northumberlandnews.com TRENT-SEVERN -- OPP Constable Doug Fluke said he’s never pulled a body from the water that had a life- jacket on it. While boating enthusiasts will hit the water in droves this Canada Day long weekend, the OPP’s marine unit operator’s message is simple: lifejackets save lives. “I don’t know why it’s not the law by now, especially regard- ing children,” Const. Fluke said, as he steered the OPP marine boat, skimming across the water under overcast sky. “I wish it was the law to wear one at all times while on the water. Right now, that’s not the case.” According to the OPP, 90 per cent of people who drown in recreation- al boating incidents are not wearing a lifejacket. In 2012, the OPP investigated 20 fatal boating incidents in which 22 people died. Eighteen of the 22 vic- tims were not wearing lifejackets. Const. Fluke said to comply with the law is to have a lifejacket, “of proper size for everyone on board and has to be readily accessible.” The OPP Marine Program is responsible for more than 94,000 square kilometres of navigable lakes and waterways in Ontario and polices more than 90 per cent of the province. In an emergency, the OPP Marine Unit can be dispatched to Durham Region to assist. In his third summer at the helm of the marine unit, Const. Fluke said there are three boat- ing safety-related issues he has “zero tolerance” for: having no boating license, no lifejacket and drinking and boating. Not having a boating license will cost boaters a $250 fine, without adding a victim surcharge. “Liquor is always an issue though,” he said, as he waved to a group of fishermen trolling for bass. “Wheth- er it’s finding a cooler or a two-four on board.” There is only one time you may drink alcohol on a boat. “The boat must be anchored or tied to a dock (for the night),” he said. “It must have cooking and sleeping quarters on board, and a bathroom. A barbecue and bucket in the corner of the boat does not count.” In order to transport alcohol on board, it must be in its original, sealed con- tainer. “It can’t be in a cooler on ice. That’s accessible as far as I am con- cerned,” Const. Fluke said. “There is to be no drinking (alcohol) at all while a boat is in operation.” Much like on the road, the OPP have the authority to suspend driv- er’s licenses for 12 hours and issue a 90-day license suspension if a boat operator fails a breath test. Const. Fluke would like to see stiffer guidelines on getting a boat- ing license in Ontario. “I’d like boaters to take an accred- ited course, anyone can take the test online for you,” he said. “Photos on licenses should be a necessary change as well.” Const. Fluke said, surprisingly, a boating license is not needed to rent a boat. “How does that make sense?” he asked, adding a rental agreement acts as a boating license when on the water. Const. Fluke said the OPP is not on the water to ruin people’s fun. “We just want to make sure they are having fun safely.” Page 6 - Today’s editorial 2.98% 4-Year Fixed Rate * Adaptable,flexible,and great rates.

The announcement will allow Ontario Power Generation to continue operating the facility beyond June 30, when the current licence is set to expire. The extension means the plant can operate until Aug. 31. The commission held hearings in Ottawa in February and in Pickering in May to con- sider OPG’s licence renewal. The company is seeking a five-year operating licence. The commission said it needed more time to consider OPG’s request. “Given the immi- nent licence expiry, the commission has determined that a two-month licence exten- sion is appropriate to allow it sufficient time to deliberate and carefully consider all of the information on the record before issuing a final decision,” it noted in a press release. In addition to OPG, the commission also heard from 136 intervenors and recommen- dations from CNSC staff. Want to know what’s happening in Pickering?

I believed, like many, in MP Chris Alex- ander’s integrity and dedication to his con- stituents. I was at an all-candidates meet- ing in Claremont during his campaign and he clearly stated that he was not in favour of a Pickering airport and was subsequent- ly elected as our MP. But after hearing him declaring to the media that he was now supporting a Pickering airport “because there was now a business case”, I feel let down and even duped, like many people in my commu- nity. It seems that he is following the party line instead of serving us, as he prom- ised to do. We all know there is no need for an airport here; there is no business case. There is ample room for expansion at Pearson and in Hamilton and the required infrastructure is in place. By contrast, the location of the Pickering airport would lack the necessary transpor- tation infrastructure. Worse, it would oblit- erate good agricultural land, would have a disastrous impact on the life of the resi- dents of Claremont, Markham, Whitevale, Stouffville, Uxbridge, Pickering, Ajax and the future residents of Seaton, and would make a joke of the Rouge Park. Migrating birds and runways don’t mix well; fumes, noise, heavy traffic and wildlife are not compatible. We expect Chris Alexander to take a stand against the airport. If he is in politics, not for personal gains and calcu- lated ambition, but to serve the public, he knows it is the right thing to do. Brigitte Sopher Whitevale Parking ticket not as advertised To the editor: The Town of Ajax has a bylaw you need to be aware of -- this bylaw that is not posted on Town of Ajax signs. Last week, while visiting a friend in the afternoon, I found myself with a parking ticket on a residential street. When I called to enquire as to why I received a ticket, the bylaw office advised that there is a bylaw that prohibits the parking of a vehicle for more than three hours on any street. I enquired as a visitor to the Town of Ajax why this information is not posted; the bylaw office advised that this bylaw is post- ed on their website. When you enter Ajax from any direction, nowhere on their signs does it indicate ‘Parking – 3 hours maximum on streets’. If you’re going to issue tickets for a bylaw, then it should be posted for friends/fam- ily to be aware of. I don’t think that visi- tors coming into the Town of Ajax are going to read the website for the parking bylaws prior to their visit. Whitby posts this bylaw on their signs, why not Ajax? Patricia Ritchie, Whitby Add caution to summer outings, in Durham and beyond When it comes to waterways, life jackets should be as automatic in boats as seatbelts are in cars. This weekend as Canadians flock to shorelines and waterways to celebrate the first long weekend of summer, it’s impor- tant for everyone to remember that taking fun for granted and being lax with precau- tions can end summers forever for some. It’s a reminder that was served up by the OPP’s marine unit last weekend, when a Metroland reporter boarded a police boat for a lesson on policing the province’s waterways. According to the OPP, 90 per cent of people who drown in recreational boat- ing incidents are not wearing a lifejacket. That’s not shocking to Constable Doug Fluke -- not one of the bodies he’s pulled from the water had a lifejacket. Last year, OPP investigated 20 fatal boat- ing incidents in which 22 people died. Of the dead, 18 of the 22 victims were not wearing lifejackets. The law requires boaters to have one lifejacket of proper size for each person onboard. They don’t have to be wearing one, it just needs to be accessible. However, simply having lifejackets on board is not enough. No matter how experienced a swimmer may be, there’s no telling how an accident or emergency situation will impact one's ability to perform. It’s not enough for boaters to just have equipment on board -- they should be wearing the flotation gear in case they’re thrown from a boat or it capsizes. Lifejackets may not be the most flatter- ing attire but they're not designed with fashion in mind. They save lives. And adults must set the example and clip on a lifejacket every time a boat is moving. If supervising children, it’s also impor- tant to make sure you can act in the event of an accident. Avid boaters may sneer at the idea of mandatory lifejacket use, but it’s worth some something serious thought. By requiring boaters to wear lifejackets while boats are moving, police would be more easily able to identify those in violation of safety laws. Overall, water safety would increase in the same manner driver safety has increased with the requirement and enforcement of seatbelt use. Law or no law, it’s important for all Canadians to be as safe as possible on waterways and clipping on a lifejacket is one more way to do just that. 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 • Ju n e 2 7 , 2 0 1 3 7 P GET GROWING GARDEN CENTRE SAVINGS!

Durham public board passes balanced budget Includes 74 early childhood educator jobs Kristen CAlis kcalis@durhamregion.com DURHAM -- The Durham District School Board passed a balanced budget that includes continuing the rollout of full-day Kindergar- ten and a number of new staff positions. The 2013-2014 budget includes $748 mil- lion in expenditures and $756 million in rev- enue. “We’re in the black and that’s good,” said Education Finance Committee chairwoman and Scugog Trustee Carolyn Morton, credit- ing the good work to superintendent Ed Hod- gins and staff. She said the board is pleased to pass a bud- get that supports student achievement and provides safe, secure learning and work envi- ronments while meeting the requirement that it be balanced. The budget focused on increasing the num- ber of full-day Kindergarten classes to 237 from 169. “This is fourth year of the five-year imple- mentation plan,” said Trustee Morton. “The following year we’re going to have everyone in full-day Kindergarten.” The capital budget of $69.9 million includes major operating projects such as roof replace- ments at Applecroft, Westney Heights, Coro- nation, and Lincoln Alexander public schools, ranging from $750,000 to $900,000 each. Various schools are getting boiler and light- ing upgrades, totalling $3.7 million. The operating budget of $674 million includes expenses such as staffing, comput- ers, school supplies, staff development, trans- portation and maintenance. The budget accounts for 90 more staffing positions, mostly due to early childhood edu- cators to accompany the rollout of full-day Kindergarten. Despite 29 teaching positions being lost in secondary schools, teachers will continue working within the board thanks to retire- ments and attrition, said Trustee Morton. There will be an addition of 32 elementary teachers, along with other staffing positions in the area of special education. She’s pleased with the hiring of a mental health lead position. This person will help the development programs for student and staff to promote not only mental health, but also to address issues such as anxiety and addiction that often accompany mental health issues. The board will also hire a speech language pathologist to support the autism resource team and hire 74 new early childhood educa- tors and educational assistants. 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 • Ju n e 2 7 , 2 0 1 3 8 AP Second annual event promises to be bigger and bigger with more ribbers and vendors Parvaneh Pessian ppessian@durhamregion.com WHITBY -- It sounded like an explosion from where Ann Marie Reynolds was stand- ing inside a booth at last year’s Whitby Rib- fest. She and a group of volunteers selling T-shirts for the Oshawa hospital founda- tion were huddled inside their tent for shelter from the falling rain when sudden- ly, they heard a thunderous bang. “It was like an explosion, I mean the light was unbelievable,” says Ms. Reynolds, owner of Inspired By You clothing store in Whitby. At about 2 p.m. on July 15, 2012 -- the third and final day of the inaugural event -- lightning struck the ground near a dining tent where patrons were gathered to stay dry. Seventeen people were sent to hospital with injuries, including minor burns. Ms. Reynolds, who was just steps away from the dining tent, was one of the first to reach the injured and the scene still plays vividly in her mind. “It really looked like a war zone; people screaming, people grabbing their children and running,” she recalls. “There was a baby boy standing on one of the tables screaming and holding his ears.” After that day, organizers from the Rotary Club of Whitby Sunrise had an opportunity to sit down and reflect on all that had gone right at the event, as well as the unexpect- ed challenges. “We met with all of the emergency per- sonnel so that includes EMS, fire, police, our colleagues from the Town of Whitby, and we went through it, and we were real- ly proud of how things went,” says event chairman Colin O’Regan. “You don’t throw an event that you know is going to draw in excess of 50,000 people ... and just hope you don’t have problems. You have to be prepared and we were well prepared.” Volunteers and emergency crews sprang into action when the lightning hit, execut- ing safety plans and getting people out as quickly as possible. Most of the injured people were released from hospital within a few hours. This year, there will be an even greater focus placed on safety, says Mr. O’Regan, as members of the Ribfest committee will have a direct line to the marina crew that will be keeping an eye on the skies. “If we see any sort of pending rough weather on the horizon, we’ll maintain good contact with them,” The second annual Whitby Ribfest will run July 12 to 14 and feature succulent ribs and other food, local artists, a marketplace, entertainment for children, live music, midway rides and more. There will be nine ribbers this year -- two more than last year -- as well as more vendors and activities. “We have extended the site to accom- modate the additional ribbers, the addi- tional food vendors, marketplace vendors, more seating, bigger dining tents, bigger beer tents so the whole thing has just been completely enlarged,” says Yvonne Brady, Rotarian and director of marketing for the Whitby Ribfest. Despite the fact that organizers shut down the event five hours early after the lightning strike last year, more than 40,000 people attended and the Rotary club still managed to raise about $47,000 for local and international initiatives. “The support from the community has been wonderful,” says Ms. Brady. “There haven’t been any negative com- ments and in fact, it’s been the opposite. We’ve had a ton of people say, ‘You’re doing it again this year, right?’ and telling us they’ll be there.” Ms. Reynolds says she was glad to be at the event to assist during the emergency and it won’t stop her from attending this year’s event. “They say lightning never strikes twice in the same place so we can hope,” she said.

No butts about it ... this is litter Everyone sees you driving with your hand out the window. You’re thinking you’re so sly because we don’t see you drop them. But we do. We see you toss them out at the lights, stop signs, even in parking lots. But when you throw your ciga- rette butts out the car win- dow, do you ever stop and think, ‘Who is going to pick this up for me?’ It’s estimat- ed that sev- eral trillion cigarette butts are flicked on roadways, sidewalks and other public spac- es every year worldwide. Cigarette butts are the most lit- tered item in the world. Butts can remain intact for sev- eral decades. The filter is made of cellulose acetate fibres (plastic, not cot- ton) bound together with anoth- er plastic called glycerol triace- tate which remains intact even after outdoor exposure. But it’s not just cigarette butts. It’s also the plastic wrap, the inner foil and the packaging that often ends up on the ground. You may think a single ciga- rette butt flicked out the car window is no big deal, but when added to the trillions of others, it contributes to an ugly mess. Discarded butts can cause fires and just 200 butts contain Katherine Ross-Perron Waste Management Technician Region of Durham Durham Recycling Ne w s A d v e r t i s e r • Ju n e 2 7 , 2 0 1 3 enough nicotine to kill an adult.

Pickering voted to endorse a resolution by the Town of Ajax asking the provincial govern- ment to impose “fair, effective and efficient” representation on the Region of Durham by requir- ing all Ontario municipalities to conduct reviews of council com- position at least once every three terms of council. The request is meant to shake up the numbers on regional council to make sure municipalities have equal numbers of elected repre- sentatives according to their pop- ulation. Durham’s council composi- tion hasn’t been reviewed since 1996, meaning municipalities that have seen significant growth since then, including Ajax and Whitby, still have the same number of repre- sentatives they did when their popu- lation was much lower. The move cre- ated heated debate during a Pickering coun- cil meeting on June 17, where councillors dif- fered on whether to endorse the resolution or receive it for infor- mation. “We don’t have to agree with Ajax in terms of how they feel rep- resentation needs to look across the region,” said Councillor Jenni- fer O’Connell, noting the planned Seaton development is expected to boost Pickering’s population significantly, possibly leaving the City under-represented. “I guarantee when Pickering comes along, with our population being what it’s projected to be, this council is going to be asking for this exact process to be estab- lished. We should be looking to the future and being leaders on this.” Coun. Kevin Ashe also expressed his support for endorsing the motion, noting he “hopes the Government of Ontario acts on something the regional govern- ment should have acted on.” Councillor David Pickles expressed more caution. “There are a lot of points in the report I would agree with, but my concern is I think this needs to be refined down and greater consid- eration needs to be taken in terms of where the growth is,” he said. “This is coming out after Ajax has had a prolonged growth spurt.” Mayor David Ryan also expressed doubt over a potential review process. “It’s interesting that a number of the municipalities cited as being wronged haven’t brought this for- ward,” he said, noting growing communities including Whitby and Clarington haven’t requested a review. “It’s always coming from one place.” Despite the doubts, council supported the move, voting to endorse the resolution by a vote of six to one.

They have the capability to build their own homes now, we don’t have any of our people there anymore.” Mr. Catto and the Frontiers Founda- tion are about to launch a similar mis- sion to northern Ontario’s Pikangikum reserve, a fly-in community in dire need of housing and more. “They need everything,” Mr. Catto said of the community. “Water, housing, power, even cold-climate agriculture. We’re hoping to start a poultry opera- tion with chicken and eggs and maybe some other products so residents there will be able to get things at a reasonable price.” The non-profit organization covers costs for missions through donations, with the plan for Pikangikum expected to run more than $3 million. In addition to funds, the group is also looking for a plumber to make the trek with them, this July, as their master plumber can’t travel due to health issues. “It would be quite exciting for Dur- ham if they can find a plumber and get the community involved that way,” Mr. Catto said. Aiding communities in need has been a life-long mission for Mr. Catto and his entire family. Now 84, he’s still dedicat- ed to helping communities in need in Canada and as far away as Haiti. “A lot of people are hurting out there. As long as I can raise donations and help, I’ll continue on,” he explained. “We want a permanent solution, not just a Band-aid thing where things will be better for a year or so and then it doesn’t maintain itself.” To support the mission visit www. frontiersfoundation.ca or call 416-690- 3930.

Diamond Shine offers a package that fits every budget, from a hand wash starting at just $19.95 to complete detailing. The vehicle is hand washed, using high quality soap, and hand dried with a chamois to achieve a brilliant shine. The difference can be seen in the details! While the bright sun might lift your spirits, it can also cause your vehicle’s paint to fade. To protect your paint from the sun, rain and elements, and also to give it a long lasting shine, it’s time to bring it in for a professional wax and polish. The wax will protect your vehicle from the elements, including harmful UV rays and acid rain. Diamond Shine only uses high quality, professional products that are not available over the counter, including silicone- based products that last. Even six months after cleaning, a simple wipe of the dash with a towel can bring back the shine! It’s called detailing for a reason. At Diamond Shine, their showroom package leaves no small space untouched. To achieve a showroom look, they use toothbrushes and Q-Tips to get to the hard to reach areas. Inside, your vehicle can look and feel almost like new again with an interior detailing package. Interiors are vacuumed, shampooed and detailed. Don’t let dog hairs and spilled drinks spoil the interior of your vehicle! Bring it in to Diamond Shine to be cleaned and have your upholstery protected to keep it looking great all summer long. Book your appointment in advance to avoid disappointment! “We want to thank everyone for putting their trust in us for the past 18 years, including both our loyal customers and the many dealers in the area,” says Joanne Elawar of Diamond Shine. Diamond Shine is a family owned and operated business that has been serving the Durham Region since 1994. They are located at 221 Westney Rd. S., in Ajax (just north of Bayly and directly across from the Super 8 Motel). For more information or to book an appointment please call (905) 619-2899, or visit the website at www.diamondshine.ca.

Small housing development planned in Ajax AJAX -- A 10-home development could be built on the northwest corner of Rossland Road and Riverside Drive. Ross River Holdings (Marshall Homes) wants to build the 10 two-storey, single- family homes. A brick dwelling currently on the property will be demolished. Some trees will have to be removed, but will be replaced. That didn’t sit well with Jacques Trem- blay, who lives immediately south of the proposed site. He’s concerned the removal of some spruce trees will adversely affect a row of cedar hedges on his property. “My cedar hedge, I want to protect it. They can’t remove (the spruce) without affecting my trees,” he told Ajax council’s communi- ty affairs and planning committee on Mon- day. Gary Muller, manager of planning for Ajax, said the Town will “take another look at tree preservation” during the site plan stage. T.J. Cieciura, a planning consultant for Marshall, said the Town’s arborist and the company’s arborist will be on-site to ensure trees not being removed are protected. The committee approved the develop- ment, as did council on June 24. 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 • Ju n e 2 7 , 2 0 1 3 16 AP Kristen’s Kritters Kristen Calis Reporter / kcalis@durhamregion.com / 905-579-4400 #2240 adopt a pet WHITBY -- Max is a seven-year-old male purebred Norwegian elkhound.

I was helping dig dog-strangling vine, a seri- ous alien invader, out of a Durham wildlife reserve on a volunteer day in mid-June, and happened to spend a while working on the same patch as Carolyn Van Gogh, an enthu- siastic grades 6 to 8 science teacher. Our conversation soon led to the butterfly gar- den just planted at the outdoor classroom at her school in Pickering, a project she was clearly excited about, their latest effort to teach environmental stewardship in her school. Wait a minute. Outdoor classroom? Eco- School? Biodiversity in the schoolyard? I remembered some schools planting habitat corners in the 90s. This sounded like a step beyond, environmental awareness as part of the curriculum. By the time Carolyn and I finished digging our patch, I had an invita- tion to visit her at E. B. Phin Public School in Pickering and see the outdoor classroom myself. Kids were all over the low circle of stones, visible from the parking lot, when I pulled up on a sunny afternoon last week. Obvi- ously, the outdoor classroom was being very well used and enjoyed. I went straight to the office to meet Carolyn, who showed me other ecofriendly steps the school had taken. A drinking fountain that filled water bottles and tallied how many plastic bottles were saved as a result, more than 21,000 since fall. A waste recycling program that included the “boomerang lunch” -- kids carrying containers back home with them, leaving zero garbage at school. The schoolyard was a big grassy rectangle, with little shade except for the grove of eight sizable trees planted around the limestone- slab classroom circle last June. They includ- ed a sugar maple and a ginko, for UV protec- tion, and three white pines, Ontario’s pro- vincial tree, for a windbreak. One big Nor- way spruce partially shaded the parking lot, likely part of a windbreak for a farmhouse a century ago, but other trees on the school grounds were small ornamental ones that would never provide much shade. The three raised beds of the new butter- fly garden held several native wildflower species, adding to the biodiversity their sci- ence classes study, and hopefully, kids learn to value. Like the trees, the gardens will be lovingly watered by parent and teacher vol- unteers throughout the summer. It caused a flurry of excitement when one boy saw the first butterfly come to the garden, especial- ly among the JKs, who raised and released painted lady butterflies this spring. Toyota Evergreen, Verbancic Tree Supply, Aplus General Contracting and Metro Green Apple School Program all deserve praise and thanks for helping out. There are 56 reg- istered EcoSchools in Durham Region. E. B. Phin has reached the “gold” level of partic- ipation. Thanks for all the great news, Car- olyn, and the great work by you and your team.

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 The Great Outdoors See Max on Facebook withHeat is not cool for pets DURHAM -- It’s that time of year when we have to warn people about the dangers of keeping their pets in a hot, stuffy car, or out- side for long periods of time. I know I’m mostly preaching to the con- verted, but it’s crucial you animal lovers share this information with those who may not be aware of the dangers. I called the humane society even before this extreme humidity, and it was already bombarded with phone calls regarding dogs left in cars, or dogs whining outside in the heat. It’s unfortunate that this is still an issue, even after that poor young dog died in the Vaughan Mills parking lot last year and it was all over the news, and after instances closer to home that we’ve reported on. Last July, a 14-year-old chow chow called Thor was found tied next to the porch of a house in north Oshawa in the blazing heat. He was near death when animal cruelty officer Debby Houghton saved him. The Ontario Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals says dogs should never be left in the heat, neither inside cars nor out- doors on hot days. Dogs have a limited abil- ity to sweat, so even a short time in the heat can be fatal or cause brain damage. Temper- atures inside a parked car can reach danger- ous levels in no time, even on relatively mild days, and even with the windows cracked for just a short time. A dog’s normal body tem- perature is 39 C, and they can only withstand a temperature of 41 C for a short time. Here’s a tip: leave your pets at home, safe and sound and indoors in the summer. If you notice a dog in distress, call the humane society at 905-665-7430, ext. 225. If a dog is showing signs of distress and the door is locked, the cruelty prevention officer will break a window to get them out. If it’s after hours, call Durham police at 905- 579-1520. If your dog does get heatstroke, act imme- diately. Signs include increased heart rate, excessive panting or drooling, listlessness, confusion or disorientation, bright red gums, vomiting or diarrhea, collapse, seizure or coma, or a body temperature higher than 40 C. Move your dog out of the heat right away. Use a hose or wet towels -- not ice -- to start cooling him down, and offer your dog water. Take your dog to the vet immediately, and continue cooling him with wet towels on the drive. If you can’t get to a vet right away, monitor your dog’s temperature and check for signs of shock. Stop the cooling process when your dog’s temperature reaches 40 C -- temperature dropping too low could result in shock. Cats can also get heat stroke, and signs include panting rapidly, having trouble breathing, walking wobbly, increased heart rate and red gums. Wrap your cat in a cool, wet towel, and get her to your vet or animal hospital quickly. Cats should stay indoors, as always. Have plenty of water around for all your pets. Pet events Pickering Animal Services has many cats awaiting their forever homes, including 22 kittens. They are all vaccinated, micro- chipped and sterilized. The adoption fee is just $100. Call 905-683-7575 or visit picker- ing.ca/en/living/animalservices.asp. Kristen Calis Reporter Be pet friendly this summer DURHAM -- Never leave pets in hot cars or even outside on hot days. Heat stroke can lead to death and it can only take a few minutes to set in. Instead of bringing your pet on trips to the mall or the grocery store, leave them at home and indoors with plenty of water. Ron pietRoniRo / metRoland It is always nice to reward your pet with a treat, but important to keep in mind that in some cases human food provides a significant amount of unwanted calories for our pets. The following are some comparisons that might surprise you. • A 20 lb dog eating a hot dog, is like a human eating 3 hamburgers! • A 10 lb cat eating a small cube of cheddar cheese is like a human eating 4 hamburgers!! • A 10 lb cat drinking a small glass of milk is like a human eating 5 hamburgers!!! More healthy options include apples, baby carrots & other veggies which have far less calories. Always seek advice from your veterinarian before feeding any human foods as many can be contradicted in certain medical conditions.

And if you don’t think that’s a big deal, think again. Almost 150 bands from the GTA and beyond applied for a coveted spot this year and 130 applied in 2012, yet the Pickering band made the cut both times. In fact, Kopano is the only Durham band in the lineup this year. “We definitely feel honoured,” says drummer Daniel Moy. “There are so many submissions. It is definitely something we enjoy. We had a great time (last year).” He suggests the varied musical interests of the band members is why Kopano can sound hard, almost metallish, then go in another direction and play a country tune. It's why they describe Kopano as a pro- gressive rock band. “That’s kind of like the definition of pro- gressive,” Moy says. “We don’t consider ourselves metal because we’re a little softer than most pro- gressive metal bands. You take a bunch of genres and mix them into one.” The Canada Day show is one of two the band is playing that day, as afterwards they’re heading east to play at Oshawa’s Lakeview Park. Moy says the band is hoping the timing works as they want to have an EP ready in time to sell at the gigs. And while it didn’t start out that way, the disc is going to be a concept album of sorts, featuring two lengthy tunes. They're recording it now, in Moy's basement, and while the band members are university students with- out a lot of cash, they're looking to make a quality record without going into debt. So far, so good. "We're very happy with what we have," Moy says. Band members Moy (drums, keyboards), Adrian Lorenzana (lead vocals, rhythm guitar) and Mike McGill (bass, backing vocals) all hail from Pickering, while lead guitarist and backing singer Bryan Hayes is from Uxbridge. They all attended St. Mary Catholic Sec- ondary School and got together in 2011, originally to play a talent show, "We had a fifth member (then)," Moy says. "We were kind of similar to Rage Against the Machine; we had a rapper." After the talent show, when they became a foursome, Lorenzana stepped up to take over the vocal duties. Their biggest gig to date was in Febru- ary, opening for Whitby's Protest the Hero at The Horseshoe Tavern in Toronto. They hope to play a Youth Day show in Toron- to's Dundas Square this summer. As for the future, it's up in the air. "We don't really plan too far ahead," Moy says. "We're definitely focusing on record- ing our EP, trying to get it out by July 1 so we can sell it on Canada Day." Kopano is set to take the stage on Canada Day in Pickering just after 4 p.m. and in Oshawa at 7:15 p.m. Check out their Facebook page. fast facts Music by the Bay schedule Millennium Main Stage Noon to 12:30 p.m.: Keep The Change (Burlington) 12:36 to 1:06 p.m.: The Gigi Sisters (Mis- sissauga) 1:12 to 1:42 p.m. Sydney Delong (Oakville) 1:48 to 2:18 p.m. Alyssa Leigh (Etobicoke) 2:24 to 2:54 p.m. Brittany Kwasnik (Mon- treal) 3 to 4 p.m. Lyric Dubee (Barrie) 4:06 to 4:36 p.m. Kopano (Pickering) 4:42 to 5:12 p.m. Mae Janelle Berte (North York) 5:18 to 5:48 p.m. Hustle Rose (Guelph) 5:54 to 6:24 p.m. SEAM (Mississauga) Drumming For A Cure Stage Darius Parsons, raising funds for the Cana- dian Cancer Society PICKERING -- For a second straight year, Pickering band Kopano has been chosen to play the Music By the Bay Festival in Pickering on Canada Day.

The Watoto Children’s Choir stops in Newcastle on July 2 on its Beautiful Africa: A New Generation tour. The free concert, at Newcastle Town Hall at 7 p.m., is “an evening of vibrant, original African music, dance routines and life-transforming stories,” states a press release. “The tour is a testimony of the new gen- eration of leaders emerging out of Watoto,” it states. “Established in 1994, The Watoto Children’s Choir has travelled internationally as ambassadors for the millions of children in Africa, orphaned as a result of HIV/AIDS, war and poverty. Each of the children in the choir has suffered the loss of one or both parents. They live in Watoto Children’s Vil- lages where they receive the care and nur- ture they need to grow up as productive citi- zens of their country.” Visit www.watoto.com to learn more.

Photo by Peter redman Connor Pestell medals at world golf qualifier Silver medal at tournament in Windsor WINDSOR -- Pickering resident Connor Pestell won a silver medal at the Veritas World Golf qualifying tournament held at the Roseland Golf Club in Windsor. The Roseland Golf Club, host to a Canadian Tour golf event, proved very challenging to the boys due to numerous bunkers, elevated greens and rough up to five inches deep in places. Pestell has accepted an invitation to the Veritas World Junior Golf Champion- ships to be held July 20–26, in Pasadena, California. This year’s field includes golfers from places such as China, India, Taiwan, the United Kingdom, Columbia, Chile, the United States and Canada. Pestell, 11, has had a very success- ful start to his 2013 golf season. He plays on the Canadian Junior Golf Association tour and has entered three tournaments to date. In addition to the silver medal, Pestell has also won a bronze medal and has a top-10 finish to round out the three events he has entered this year. He currently sits in the number one spot on the CJGA Canadian Order of Merit standings. This year will prove to be a challeng- ing year as he has moved up a division and is currently competing against 12 and 13 year old boys, and playing from tees that measure approximately 5,500 yards. Pestell attends Maple Ridge Public School and will be entering Grade 7 in the fall. He plays golf around the Pickering area and does a good portion of his prac- tice at The Devil’s Den Golf Centre. Ajax Ironheads move into playoff position AJAX -- After a tough middle portion of the schedule, the Ajax Ironheads have almost climbed back to even. The Jr. B lacrosse club split a pair of week- end games on their home floor at the Ajax Community Centre, falling 12-6 to Akwe- sasne on Saturday, but rebounding with a 14-8 victory against Kahnawake Sunday. Patrick Morgan and Adam Kelusky had big afternoons in the win over Kahnawake, each collecting seven points. Morgan did it on a pair of goals and five assists, while Kelusky had three goals and four help- ers. James Malloy led the goal scorers with five. McNein scored twice, with one each to Mitch Robertson and Dakota Watson. There was little chance to win Saturday’s game, falling behind Akwesasne 7-0 by the end of the first period. The split leaves the Ironheads with an 8-9-0 record overall, good enough for a three-way tie for sixth place with three games left in the regular season. The top eight make the playoffs. The Ironheads are back at it tonight in Clarington when they take on the Green Gaels. They close out the season with a pair of home games, Sunday at 2 p.m. against Oakville and Wednesday, July 3 against Mississauga at 8 p.m. Pickering Soccer Club hosts three international friendlies on July 3 PICKERING -- The Pickering Soccer Club is hosting three international friendly games for teams from Trinidad and Barbados on Wednesday, July 3. The games will feature Trinidad Trend- setter Hawks U11 boys taking on Pickering Power Green. Team Barbados Soccer Academy U13 and U14 boys teams will be taking on Pickering Power Green’s U13 and U14 boys. This event will take place at Kinsmen Park, 645 Sandy Beach Road in Pickering. Game times are expected to be at 6 p.m. for the U11 boys, 7:05 p.m. for the U13 boys, and last will be 8:30 p.m. for U14 boys. Podium finishes for Pickering cyclists PICKERING -- A number of Pickering cyclists continued the 2013 season at the Ontario Youth Cup event in Barrie. Olivia Pali and Elizabeth Archbold, both of Pickering, celebrated on the podium at the end of the day’s competition. Pali, 8, was competing in her first cycling event and finished in second place overall in the squirt girls’ division. Archbold, 11, improved on her third-place Windsor result by powering through her time trial eight seconds ahead of her nearest com- petitor. Combined with her third-place road race result, she earned the second-place overall medal in the peewee girls division. Other Pickering cyclists competing in the Barrie event were Jakob Meloche (seventh overall, minime boys) and Summer Sand- ford (sixth overall, minime girls). Also, in their first time trial events, Ethan Pali placed eighth (peewee boys), and Julianna Farmak- ovski was 12th (minime girls). 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 • Ju n e 2 7 , 2 0 1 3 20 AP Get the Skills you Need for your New Career DISCOVER IMPROVE ACHIEVE 1-888-806-1856 triosdurham.com CONTACTUS TODAY! • BUSINESS • TECHNOLOGY • HEALTHCARE • LAW • SUPPLY CHAIN 1-888-806-1856 triosdurham.com OSHAWA: 200 JOHN ST.
