The intense heat of the day relents; a cool breeze stirs. A brilliant half moon traverses the south sky. “Thwak,” comes the sound of a baseball striking a catcher’s glove and from the home dugout there’s the cry, “Oh, honey pitch,” even though it is declared a ball and the response from the visitors’ den is, “Good eye, kid, good eye,” and the ball sails back to the mound where a tall skinny kid receives it -- smack -- and sets himself for the next pitch. That offering arrives -- it is a curve, you can tell from its trajectory and speed -- and the batter swings and there is a sharp report and the ball is soaring away, rapidly dimin- ishing as it arcs toward the vine-covered fence in right field.

The swim that kicked off in Kingston and was slated to bring the five-women relay team 300-plus kilometres through Durham Region and into Toronto before ending in Burlington over the course of five days, was shortened due to safety concerns. The decision was arrived upon a day earlier after one of the five team members, 18-year-old Mona Sharari, was removed from the frigid Lake Ontario water near Newcastle due to health concerns. “I don’t even remember,” Ms. Sharari said when asked to recall the troubling situation she found herself in on Friday. “I just remember falling asleep and then I was at the hospital. I have no idea what happened.” In addition, the group received reports of water tem- peratures near Toronto dipping into the low 50s and after dealing with two-metre high waves among other chal- lenges earlier on in the swim, it was time for a change of plan. “This swim was about our swim, but it was also about safety,” said team member Nicole Mallette, 47, an Eto- bicoke Masters Swim Club member who enjoyed a suc- cessful crossing of Lake Ontario in 1997. “When we start putting our team members in (Ms. Sharari’s) situation that it’s unsafe, we had to start taking looks at other deci- sions.” To start what would be the final leg of their swim Sat- urday morning, they hit the waters in Darlington, which were only a few degrees Fahrenheit higher than what they would have swam into in Toronto had they continued on. Despite a check-in with doctors on Friday, Ms. Sharari was able to complete the swim. Group members were all shivers and smiles after step- ping foot on the beach at Whitby’s Heydenshore Park around 1:30 p.m. “It’s amazing what we just did, us five girls, nobody has ever done before,” Ms. Mallette said. “We may have just set the new challenge to other people. I think, right now, even though we didn’t make the landing destination that our original goal was, we did 240 kilometres and as far as I am concerned, that’s flipping awesome.” All five have had successful swims of Lake Ontario in the past, and while they still consider this one a success despite having to alter the plans, none of them have plans to try the same swim again. “None,” they all shouted in unison when asked how many would try again by the throng of media among the many on hand to welcome them to shore. It was that tough a swim, they added. “I think our coaches have told us numerous times that if it was a solo swim that they would have called it within the first two hours,” said Samantha Whiteside, 23. Considering everything they were faced with during their time in the water, Ms. Mallette wanted to make spe- cial mention of the group they had supporting their swim, from the sailors to the zodiac crew. “They were phenomenal,” she said, noting the 240 kilo- metre journey wouldn’t have been possible otherwise. The other two team members were Rebekah Boscariol and Colleen Shields, 61, who has crossed the lake on two separate occasions, first in 1990 and again in 2006. Ms. Boscariol, 18, accomplished the feat two years ago. Because I am a Girl is a global initiative to end gender inequality, promote girls’ rights and lift millions of girls, and everyone around them, out of poverty. For more information visit www.becausegirlscan.ca. The swimmers are hoping to raise $1,000 for every kilo- metre swam and donations will be accepted through Sept. 1.

Ajax has received the first-quarter pay- ment of $2,357,436 from the Ontario Lot- tery and Gaming Corporation for being the host of OLG Slots at Ajax Downs. Since the slots operation opened in 2006, the Town has received more than $42 million in non-tax gaming rev- enue. The payment is the first under the new Municipality Contribu- tion Agreement the provincial government put in place on April 1. “While the new agree- ment does change the amount of the individual quarterly pay- ments, the total amount of revenue the Town will receive remains unchanged at $6.85 million per year,” Rob Ford, direc- tor of finance for Ajax, said in an e-mail. “In June of this year, council approved a comprehensive Financial Sustain- ability Plan, which formalizes how the Town’s share of the slots revenues are spent,” Mr. Ford noted. “Council’s focus remains on ensuring that the slots revenues continue to minimize tax rate increases, accelerating the comple- tion of key capital projects, such as the Audley Rec- reation Centre, and plan- ning for the Town’s long- term financial strength and sus- tainability.” “Host communities are able to invest in important local programs and infra- structure with revenue from OLG gam- ing sites,” Charles Sousa, minister of finance, noted in a press release. “The modernization of Ontario’s lottery and gaming business will stimulate econom- ic development, create new jobs and continue to support public priorities like health care.” Correction A story in the Thursday July 18, 2013 edi- tion titled “Durham employment lead- ers get sneak peek at new programs” con- tained incorrect information.

Sergeant Nancy van Rooy of the Dur- ham Regional Police noted the fam- ily doesn’t want the name of the man released. The accident happened around 1 p.m. on Saturday, July 27 at the corner of Church Street North and Delaney Drive when a man cycling collided with a dump truck. The dump truck and the cyclist -- who was on the sidewalk -- were both stopped for a red light on Delaney at Church, said police. As the light turned green, the cyclist began to pedal across the roadway heading east, while at the same time the dump truck was turning southbound on Church from Delaney Drive. As it was turning, the dump truck knocked the 19-year-old man to the ground. The cyclist passed under the dump truck, coming to rest near the rear driv- er’s side wheels. He was seriously injured and died at the scene. The 52-year-old operator of the dump truck was arrested at the scene and later released unconditionally, pending investigation. Any witnesses who have not already spoken to police are asked to contact Detective Constable Dave Ashfield at 1-888-579-1520, ext. 5226. Anonymous information can be sent to Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-TIPS or online at www.durhamregional- crimestoppers.ca. Police not identifying woman killed in Pickering crash PICKERING -- The name of a 51-year- old Stouffville woman who died following a single-vehicle crash in Pickering will not be released. Durham Regional Police say a red Dodge van driven by the woman was westbound on Concession Road 9, east of Sideline 32, when it went into a ditch and struck a tree just after 3 a.m. Sun- day, July 28. She was pronounced dead at the scene. The family has requested the woman’s identity not be released. Police closed the road for several hours while investigating and say weath- er conditions were not a factor in the crash. Anyone with information is asked to call Detective Constable Todd Gribbons at 1-888-579-1520 ext. 5225. AJAX -- Emergency crews had the intersection of Delaney Drive and Church Street closed after a bike collided with a dump truck on Saturday, July 27.

The Durham Region health depart- ment noted mosquitoes collected on July 23 in permanent mos- quito trap sites in Ajax and Pickering tested positive. So far, four groups of mos- quitoes have tested positive for WNV in Durham this season. “With positive mosqui- to results confirmed local- ly, it’s important for area residents to take precautions to avoid mosquito bites,” said Ross MacEachern, manager, environmental health with Durham. The virus is a mosquito-borne disease that’s spread to humans through the bite of an infected mosquito. Mosquitoes become infected by feed- ing on the blood of a bird that carries the virus. The disease can’t be passed from per- son to person or from bird to person. Most people who contract the virus will experience mild illness including fever, headache, body ache, nausea, vomiting and rash on the chest, stomach or back. More serious symptoms can include muscle weakness, stiff neck, confusion, tremors, numbness and sudden sensi- tivity to light. Symptoms usually develop between two and 15 days after being bit- ten by an infected mosquito. The health department noted precau- tions to take include: • Wear shoes, socks and light-coloured clothing, including long sleeve tops and full-length pants, when outside espe- cially during evening, nighttime or dawn when mosquitoes are most active. • Use insect repellent containing DEET on exposed skin. • Ensure that window and door screens are in good repair to prevent mosquitoes from entering your home. • Prevent stagnant water from accumu- lating on your property. For more information on WNV, call the health department’s Environmental Help Line at 905-723-3818 or 1-888-777- 9613. You can also visit www.durham. ca. A Metroland Media Group Ltd.

So, Chris Alexander has a promotion to Immigration Minister. No doubt he has the cre- dentials but are we in Ajax going to miss him? I doubt it. He was rarely in town and it only for the occasional photo-op, or so it seemed. We, his constituents, did not seem to be important. Let’s hope he does a better job with immigrants or they may be waiting forev- er. I once wrote to him but never heard back.

Sadly, such was the case for the five-women relay team attempting to make its way across Lake Ontario. Facing less co-operative water and colder temperatures than anticipated, the Because We Can swim relay team had to call it quits the day after passing through Cobourg and Port Hope, and halt its lofty goal early, wrapping things up on the shores of Whitby instead of Burlington as originally planned. The swim’s purpose was to help raise $300,000 -- $1,000 for every kilometre swam -- for Because I am a Girl, a global initiative to end gender inequality, pro- mote girls’ rights and lift millions of girls, and everyone around them, out of poverty. The relay team, consisting of Rebekah Boscariol, Colleen Shields, Mona Sharari, Samantha Whiteside, and Nicole Mallette, kicked off the swim in Kingston on Tues- day, July 23 and was slated to go more than 300-plus kilometres to Burlington over five days, but by Friday it was clear that wasn’t going to happen. In Newcastle, Ms. Sharari was removed from the frigid Lake Ontario waters due to health concerns. Afterwards, she had trou- ble even recalling the situation and said she just remembers falling asleep and then she was at the hospital. In addition, the group received reports of water tempera- tures near Toronto dipping into the low 50s, adding to the challenges they already faced, such as two-metre high waves ear- lier on in the swim. While cheers welcomed the women in from the waters, one can only imag- ine the heavy hearts and disappointment they must have felt -- an emotion many are probably more familiar with than the ecstasy of realizing the perceived impos- sible. It is important these courageous women find a way to finish what they started and raise the $300,000 goal they’ve given them- selves until September to come up with. They were unable to physically complete their goal, but that doesn’t mean we can’t all help make their fundraising goals a real- ity. It’s important for everyone to remem- ber, including the women, that they did the bravest thing of all by trying. They tried with cameras watching and news media following, and made a decision to protect each other and end the relay early. In many ways, that feat of recognizing and acknowl- edging limitations is harder than complet- ing the swim would have been. Good for them for showing us the strength of the human spirit and remind- ing us that sometimes you have to listen to head and health, even at the expense of a broken heart. Citizen video raises the stakes Videos and photos shot by people just like you and me, going about our daily busi- ness, have changed news reporting in a very positive way. Citizen reports, married with the skills of trained journalists, can most assuredly result in better news reporting. This week’s tragic shooting by police of a teenager on a Toronto streetcar illustrates the great poten- tial for keeping our police (politicians, waste collectors, bus drivers -- you fill in the job title) accountable. Without the videos shot by passersby, the details of what happened on that streetcar would be painted only by the words of the police officers on hand and via the fragmented eyewitness recollec- tions of surprised passersby. Most police officers are great at what they do, but when it comes to protecting their own, there’s a potential for misguided editing of the facts. Untrained eyewitnesses are only as good as their memories. Have you ever played one of those children’s memory games? A tray of say 15 items is placed in front of you and you have 10 seconds to view it. The tray is taken away and you have only your memory to describe what you’ve seen -- how well did you do? Eyewitness accounts, even when they are sincere and well-mean- ing, can be influenced by stress and anxi- ety, the witness’s own belief of what hap- pened, leading questions posed by others, personal perception of weight, height and speed when describing a scene ... there are a myriad of studies that weigh in on this issue. But raw, unedited video has a pretty good memory and it’s not influenced by ‘human’ emotions. Take a citizen-recorded video or photo, marry that to the skills of a trained journalist who knows where to start looking to get answers, and you will have a more thorough story than either can tell on his own. Two heads are better than one, four eyes better than two .... -- Joanne Burghardt is editor-in-chief for Metro- land Media Group’s Durham division. Joanne Burghardt Editor-in-Chief Reporting Mirror tells a different tale than the one we tell ourselves What would get your vote for the most damaging invention mankind has ever come up with? The atom bomb? The gun? Spanx? How about the mirror? Think about that last one for a moment. Unlike the first three, most of us have at least one and maybe more, mirrors in our homes. Most of us, in so-called civilized society, spend at least a moment and usually more letting a mir- ror cast its evil spell upon us every day of our lives. And unlike more commonplace weapons, whose damage is more or less definable and predictable, the power of the mirror grows exponentially as we age. The more we look into it the greater its ability to affect us, to lie to us, to tell us a story that isn’t necessarily true. How old do you think you would be or, more importantly, feel, if you never saw your reflection? I was golfing with a couple of buddies the other morning and we were having a wonderful time. It was a gorgeous summer day full of promise and happiness. We were all hitting the ball well, walking and talking easily with the sun on our skin and a smile on our faces. At one point we came to the course snack bar where a strikingly beautiful young woman sold us a few drinks and muffins. She was young enough to be any one of our daughters but as she turned her lovely smile on each one of us, she was able to make three middle-aged guys feel 18 again. I’m sure through her eyes we looked like Old Testament prophets with nine irons in our hands, but that doesn’t matter. It was how we suddenly saw ourselves. It was like drinking a magic potion. The point is, most of us don’t ever real- ly stop seeing the world through the same eyes we’ve always seen it. That wonderful, youthful, life-loving kid is still very much inside us. When I go through most of my day, when I think my thoughts and live my life, I still feel the same way I did when I was in my early twenties. I feel alive and excit- ed and energetic and happy. That is, until I look in the mirror. The mirror tells us a dif- ferent story than the one we tell ourselves. And frankly, the mirror is a jerk. I get out of bed in the morning and I imagine all the wonderful things I can do. I imagine the fun that this summer day holds for me, the friends I’ll get to play with. I step in front of the mirror and the first words out of its loud mouth are ‘Whoa, Methusaleh, hope your insurance is topped up’. It’s a lie, of course, but the mirror is a skilful liar. And it tells a story that most of us have, unfortunately, bought into. The story that says we need to look a certain way at a cer- tain age, behave a certain way, talk a certain way. That time actually exists. Unfortunately, we live in a world that is mirror crazy. They’re everywhere, in our homes, our cars, our businesses. Try count- ing how many times you see your reflection in the course of a day. Pretty soon you’ll wish you were a vampire. Luckily we all carry a talisman that has the power to negate or at least retard the evil power of the mirror. It’s a little thing but it has the ability to turn back the hands of the clock and put the mirror’s lies to shame. It’s called a smile. -- Durham resident Neil Crone, actor, comic, writer, saves some of his best lines for this column.

DurhamCLEAR held public meetings across the region this week to gather input prior to a National Energy Board hearing, scheduled for the fall. The group has been granted interve- nor status for the hearing, the only such group in Durham to receive it. The sta- tus will allow the group to interview Enbridge officials during the hearing. Also, it was given $23,500 in funding to help with its efforts. Doug Anderson, president of Durham- CLEAR, said most of the money is going towards retaining Lloyd Greenspoon, a Sunderland lawyer specializing in envi- ronmental matters. “No environmental assessment has ever been done and we think one should be done,” said Mr. Anderson during a meeting at the Whitby Public Library central branch on Wednesday. Enbridge has applied to the NEB to reverse the flow of oil in a pipeline known as Line 9 that runs between Sar- nia and Montreal. Currently, oil in the line travels from Montreal to Sarnia, but the company wants to switch the flow. Enbridge is also seeking to increase the amount of oil pumped through the line to 300,000 barrels daily, from the current 240,000 barrels. The underground pipeline passes through Durham in north Pickering, north Ajax, between Whitby and Brook- lin, north Oshawa and through north Clarington, between Newcastle and Orono. The pipe is 30 millimetres in diameter and is buried about three feet. Mr. Anderson said some people think the hearing will be “a waste of time, that the NEB will rubberstamp it.” The NEB could deny the company’s request, but that’s “unlikely,” he noted. The board could also approve the reversal, but with conditions, such as improve the safety and environmental regulations, or order that more shut-off valves be installed to limit the size of a spill. There are only two shut-off valves in Durham, one in Ajax and the other in Clarington, and they are 31 kilometres apart, he said. At any given time, 71,300 barrels of oil is between the valves, he added. Stacey Leadbetter of Whitby noted, “We have the highest concentration of water courses and we only have two valves. The highest concentration and the lowest number of valves.” “If we can’t stop it, I’d like a new pipe. This is a 38-year-old pipe,” said Lance Livingstone of Oshawa. At meetings and open houses, Enbridge officials have said the pipeline is safe and the company spends a lot of money ensuring that safety. ‘‘No environmental assessment has ever been done and we think one should be done.’ Doug Anderson, president, DurhamCLEAR Durham Home Depots raise big money during YWCA campaign DURHAM -- Several Home Depot stores in Durham Region hit the nail on the head in raising almost $32,000 to sup- port the YWCA Durham. The Home Depot Canada Foundation and the outlets raised $31,956 in the seventh annual Buy a Hammer, Build Our Community cam- paign. The Oshawa store was one of the top three in raising funds, collecting more than $10,190 at the Oshawa location alone.

The home fans applaud as the catch is made and then the ball cuts once more through the dusk, on its way back to the infield. The scoreboard says 5 for the Oshawa Legionaires and 5 for the Pickering Red Sox and even though we’re two hours and four innings in we are back where we began. It’s been a long, humid day and it’s almost 9:30 now and everybody has to work tomorrow but baseball will continue at its own pace and no one will grouse about that. Because really, on this beautiful night in July, where would you rather be? u Baseball fosters romanticism and nostalgia -- ask Kevin Costner or W.P. Kinsella -- par- ticularly among men. We grew up playing the game, or watching it with our dads, or dream- ing about being the heroes under those lights. And nowhere is the propensity to wax lov- ingly more evident than at Kinsmen Stadium, a vision of a ball park in downtown Oshawa that opened in 1949. “I love this place,” says Legionaires manag- er Jim Walerowich, who sits sweating under a late afternoon sun as he watches his play- ers warming up for tonight’s game against Pickering. Mr. Walerowich is 42 now and he grew up playing ball here. As his playing days waned, he took to coaching to remain connected to the game. He spends his days working as a glazier and his nights guiding his team. “I left my house in Bowmanville at 20 after 5 this morning, and I probably won’t get home until 11:30 or 12 tonight,” he says. “And we have another game tomorrow night.” His Legionaires are aged 19 to 21 and while a few are playing at college, they too are near- ing the time when they’ll hang ‘em up, as the saying goes. But they still revel in being part of a team, and competing. They have eight wins and 19 losses going into tonight’s game but retain the pride and confidence required to keep on competing. Their collective character is classic Oshawa. “We’re what I call a lunch bucket team,” says Mr. Walerowich. “We’re not flashy, we don’t have stars, but when we do what we can, we can play with anybody.” u Every time Jim Lutton ducks through the green door on Arena Street and enters the confines of Kinsmen Stadium, he’s coming home. “If you look over that tree right there,” he says, pointing toward the right field fence, “I grew up over there, on McMillan Drive. My window used to look down on the park.” Mr. Lutton, in his 70s now, is still deeply involved with baseball in Oshawa; for nearly 50 years he coached the Legionaires, but his history with the stadium goes back farther. He’s fond of reminiscing about how as boys he and his pals used to sneak into Kinsmen, scaling walls and dodging ticket-takers. He is intimately familiar with the history of the park, and was an important source for a terrific article This Week sports writer Brad Kelly penned about the place a few years ago (http://www.durhamregion.com/sports- story/3455640-kinsmen-civic-memorial-sta- dium-has-stood-the-test-of-time/). He remembers when bleachers lined both baselines and people used to congregate on McMillan, back before the trees grew and obstructed the view, to watch big games. The crowds are smaller now -- maybe 30 people are here tonight, and many of them brought their own lawn chairs, eschewing the butt- numbing bleachers -- but the aura of Kins- men and the game itself endures. “It’s altogether different,” he says, and a wry smile appears on a face that belies his age, “and altogether the same.” u The game concludes a few minutes before 11 o’clock, a 10-9 victory for Pickering. Dur- ing the contest Oshawa has established, lost and regained the lead, only to surrender three runs in the Pickering half of the ninth to fall behind for good. In the bottom of the ninth Oshawa made it thrilling, patiently earning walks and loading the bases with one out. Shortstop Duncan Watt chipped a high foul fly ball that was snagged outside the first base line to make it two out. Oshawa’s final hitter was Aaron Hamilton, who worked the count to 2 and 2 with the bases full before striking out. Game over. The fans shout their approv- al for the efforts of the players, who gather at mid-field to shake hands. People begin to file out through the green door onto Arena Street. They fold chairs and stretch limbs and chatter contentedly. The moon has progressed on its slow traverse toward the west, and the night feels cool and calm. The players are leaving the field, kicking up dust and sunflower seed shells; this game and this evening are now memories. Soon they’ll shut down the lights and close the green door and Kinsmen Sta- dium will lie silent, save for the endless whis- pering echoes of the past.

As the nation’s longest-serving telecommunications company, established shortly after Confederation in 1880, we would like to ensure Canadians clearly understand a critical situation impacting their world-leading wireless industry. Verizon Communications, a $120-billion US telecommunications giant with 100 million wireless customers, is considering entering the Canadian market. A company of this scale certainly doesn’t need handouts from Canadians or special regulatory advantages over Canadian companies. But that is exactly what they get in the new federal wireless regulations. Bell welcomes any competitor, but they should compete on a level playing field. Fair competition is something Canadians demand and something Bell expects too after 133 years of investment in delivering world-class communications services to Canadians. Unintended advantages for American giants: How we got here The federal government has recently taken an activist role i n regulating C a n a d a ’ s w i r e l e s s i n d u s t r y . T h a t i n c l u d e s g i v i n g v a r i o u s b e n e f i t s to small startup wireless competitors. With Ottawa’s help, the new companies have become part of the vigorously competitive Canadian wireless marketplace. But the government inadvertently left holes in the wireless rules that would give big US corporations the same extraordinary a d v a n t a g e s as the small startups. And all Canadians are on the hook to pay. Verizon has said it’s looking at taking advantage of this unique opportunity.We do n o t b e l i e v e a US c o m p a n y 4 x t h e s i z e o f C a n a d a ’ s entirewireless industry combined requires special help from Canada. It’s profoundly unfair to all Canadians, and Ottawa needs to close the loopholes. 3 loopholes in the rules Under federal regulations originally designed for startup competitors, Verizon would actually get these benefits… 1. Verizon would be able to buy twice as much of Canada’s airwaves as Canadian companies like Bell can in a n u p c o m i n g a u c t i o n of wireless spectrum – the airwaves that carry your calls and data. These airwaves are a public resource, and access to them is critical to providing you with world-leading wirel e s s services. W henOttawa auctions off Canada’s airwaves for u s e b y t e l e c o m m u n i c a t i o n s c o m p a n i e s , i t g e t s s i g n i f i c a n t revenues. T h e s e a r e p u b l i c f u n d s . It is inappropriate for our own government to essentially reserve a public resource for a company l i k e Verizon t o t h e d e t r i m e n t o f Canadian companies. In doing so, the government will also reduce f e d e r a l a u c t i o n revenue s i g n i f i c a n t l y –by p o t e n t i a l l y h u n d r e d s of millions of dollars.A loophole that gives US companies access to twice as much of our airwaves and at a lower c o s t i s a n u n f a i r advantage, paid for by Canadians. 2.They get to piggyback on the networks of Canadian carriers wherever t h e y d o n ’ t w a n t t o i n v e s t a n d b u i l d t h e i r o w n . Under the rules,Verizon would have the right to offer wireless service using the advanced networks funded by Canadian companies and built by Canadian workers. Industry experts say a V erizon w o u l d n ’ t n e e d t o b u i l d i t s o w n n e t w o r k t h r o u g h o u t C a n a d a , i n v e s t i n Canada’s rural communities, or support Canadian jobs like Canadian wireless companies do. Instead, they would concentrate on afew big urban centres,forcing Canadian carriers to d o t h e s a m e w h i l e p o t e n t i a l l y c u t t i n g j o b s a n d s l a s h i n g c o s t s i n o r d e r t o c o m p e t e . 3. Verizon can acquire smaller Canadian competitors – but B e l l a n d o t h e r C a n a d i a n w i r e l e s s c o m p a n i e s c a n ’ t e v e n t r y . American players like Verizon can buy up new Canadian wireless companies like Wind Mobile and Mobilicity at cut-rate prices –includingtheir existing spectrum holdings previously subsidized by Canadian taxpayers.Yet C a n a d i a n c a r r i e r s like B e l l a r e r estricted f r o m competing to acquire these Canadian startups, even if the new companies want it to happen. That means Verizon g e t s t h e m forbelow-market value. What did Ottawa get from the United States in return for t h i s u n p r e c e d e n t e d a c c e s s t o C a n a d a ? N o t h i n g . N o reciprocity i n t h e U S for C a n a d i a n companies. In fact, can you even imagine Canadian wireless companies getting preferred access to N e w Y o r k , L o s A n g e l e s o r C h i c a g o ? 3 straightforward ways to close the loopholes The Bell team is ready to compete with anyone for your business on a level playing field. But big US companies taking advantage of rules designed to help Canadian startups is just not on the level. To get wireless policy back on track, we propose that… 1. Canadian wireless carriers should be able to bid for the same amount of Canada’s airwaves as Americans can. 2. US operators entering Canada should roll out wireless service a c r o s s t h e c o u n t r y , j u s t a s C a n a d i a n c o m p a n i e s h a v e . 3. If a small Canadian wireless company seeks a buyer, C a n a d i a n c a r r i e r s should b e a l l o w e d t o b i d , j u s t a s the A m e r i c a n s c a n . US giants don’t need special help from the Canadian government, and Canadians shouldn’t have to pay their way into the country. Instead, let’s give Canada’s own communications companies a fair chance to compete with them.

Then again, the government wouldn’t let a little data get in the way of a good lever for getting votes, and that’s clearly what is going on here.” Bob Bek, CIBC World Markets, July 12, 2013 “The perception that Canadian prices are high relative to other jurisdictions has been seized upon by the government as an invitation to intervene and deliver lower prices. But the perception is false and the invitation is illogical.” Dr.Jeffrey Church and Andrew Wilkins of the University of Calgary, The Globe and Mail, July 8, 2013 “…the federal government’s anything-goes market interventions to support a fourth carrier have so gerrymandered the rules to favour Verizon sweeping in that any investor seriously interested in buying shares in Canadian telecom companies should be spooked.” Sean Silcoff, The Globe and Mail, June 27,2013 “This will mean significant layoffs which could easily trump the hiring to be done by Verizon, which besides a needed presence in retail outlets, should be able to initially handle a lot of functions (marketing, billing) from the United States.” Adam Shine,National Bank Financial, June 26, 2013 “Unlike the national incumbents in Canada, we wonder if Verizon has a strategy for wireless broadband in rural markets, a key political consideration for the current Conservative Government.” Dvai Ghose,Canaccord Genuity,July 2, 2013 The authors, publications and corporate or academic institutions referenced have not approved or endorsed any statement or position of Bell.No endorsement by them of this message by Bell is intended or implied. 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 l y 3 1 , 2 0 1 3 14 AP Sports Brad Kelly Sports Editor / bkelly@durhamregion.com / 905-579-4400 #2254 Durham Region Roller Derby event named in honour of young boy Shawn Cayley scayley@durhamregion.com DURHAM -- When members of Durham Region Roller Derby take the floor to bat- tle, a young boy by the name of Gibson is never far from their thoughts. The league’s third annual season-ending event, which took place Sunday, July 28 at the Ajax Community Centre, is named after Gibson, a boy who spent most of his 11 years on earth fighting terminal brain cancer. A brave, witty kid who loved his cars, motorcycles, loud music and his derby girls, Gibson died from the disease in October 2011. However, before his death, many members of Durham Region Roller Derby had the chance to meet him and participate in fundraisers to show their support. And even after his death, the DRRD girls found a way to keep him close by naming their season-closing event in his honour. “He was this awesome little 11 year old with an attitude,” recalled Sarah King, a Whitby resident who competes with the Motor City Madames under the moni- ker Cutsie Bootsie and had the chance to spend time with Gibson during his illness. “The few times we got the chance to inter- act, we got along really well.” In addition to serving as the final bout of the season for the DRRD girls, Sun- day’s Gibson’s Cup was also a fundraiser for Hearth Place Cancer Support Centre in Oshawa, an organization where cancer patients and family can go to share their experiences and make use of a variety of resources in a home-like atmosphere. For King, that caused the day to hit a lit- tle closer to home. “I lost my dad to cancer about a year after we had this game (for the first time),” she said. Meanwhile, as for the league and sport itself, the profile continues to grow across the province with some 54 leagues, for both men and women, taking to the floor in rinks across Ontario. Derby provides a level of entertainment not rivaled by many other sports. Fans are permitted to bring chairs to sit track-side and watch the women of all ages, shapes and sizes battle for every inch of space for 60 minutes. Each team member partici- pates under a moniker, with names rang- ing from Lady Grimm to Darth Kater and just about everything in between. Play-by-play of the action is broadcast throughout the arena to help keep fans, especially those new to the sport, in tune with the action. DRRD consists of four teams, the Madames, Atom Smashers -- who repeat- ed as champions on Sunday -- the DRRD’y Farmers and Durham Derby Devils. Melissa Legree is a teammate of King’s with the Madames. She competes under the name Mozilla, loves being on the floor and looks forward to seeing the league grow in future years. “Yeah, absolutely. We are continually growing and it’s great,” she said. “We have a fresh meat camp happening right now where girls get trained on how to skate and learn the minimum skills so that they can become part of the farm team so we can keep building and growing.” For more information on the league, visit www.drrd.ca. Gibson Cup keeps memory alive AJAX -- The Atom Smashers and the Motor City Madames, both Durham Region Roller Derby teams, battled it out at the 3rd annual Gibson Cup, at the Ajax Community Centre. Sabrina byrneS / Metroland Dal Colle, Smith represent Oshawa Generals at Hlinka tournament brian MCnair bmcnair@durhamregion.com OSHAWA -- The Oshawa Generals will be well-represented as Canada searches for a sixth straight gold medal at the Memorial of Ivan Hlinka under-18 tournament. The team’s head coach, DJ Smith, will serve as an assistant to Dale Hunter, while forward Michael Dal Colle was among the 22 players announced to the roster Mon- day. Dal Colle, who played centre in minor hockey, will stay on the wing for the Cana- dian team, just as he did as a rookie with the Generals last season, when he put up 15-33-48 numbers in 63 games. “He started a little but slow for me and then he got going,” Smith said of Dal Col- le’s showing at the selection camp. “He is what he is, he makes plays, he’s a pass- first guy. He gets guys the puck, he puts it where it needs to be. He’s going to have to bang some bodies, but I foresee him being a big part of this team.” Dal Colle, listed as six foot two and 171 pounds, had a goal and an assist in a 4-1 intra-squad game during the camp. The seventh overall pick in the 2012 Ontario Hockey League draft is one of eight OHL players, compared to seven from each of the Quebec and western hockey leagues. “A lot more work goes into picking these teams than a lot of people think,” said Smith. “It’s been very highly competitive.” All but two of the players on the team are eligible for the 2014 National Hock- ey League draft, including Barrie Colts defenceman Aaron Ekblad, a top pros- pect. “I think our strength will be our depth,” said Smith. “I don’t think there’s one par- ticular player up front who’s going to do it by himself, I think we’re going to do it by committee, but I like our team speed, I like our goaltending, and Ekblad’s probably the leader of our defence and he’s a high- end, world-class player. “So we like our team, but it’s tough to say because you don’t know what’s over there.” The tournament runs Aug. 5-10 in Breclav, Czech Republic and Piestany, Slo- vakia. Canada is in a pool with the Czech Republic, Sweden and Switzerland, while Russia, the United States, Finland and Slo- vakia make up the other group.View more photos with 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 l y 3 1 , 2 0 1 3 15 AP Carrier of the We ek Congratulations Natalya for being our Carrier of the Week. 279 Kingston Rd.

RETAILBUSINESS OPPORTUNITY FORAN AGENCY STORE IN CLAREMONT, LCBO RFP#2013-120 CLAREMONT An excellent business opportunity is now available to established retailers in Claremont. The Liquor Control Board of Ontario (LCBO)is seeking a responsible, customer-focused retailer to operate an LCBO Agency Store in Claremont. To qualify, the applicant must have an existing, currently operating retail business in the community and commit to operating the Agency store within established LCBO guidelines. To facilitate the sale of beverage alcohol products, the operator may be required to enter into separate commercial arrangements with the LCBO and domestic beer suppliers. The successful applicant will also be required to participate in a special LCBO server-training program to ensure the responsible sale of beverage alcohol products. Since 1962, the LCBO has authorized more than 200Agency stores to serve communities that have requested service but where the local population is too small to support a regular LCBO or beer store. TheseAgency stores are operated by local retailers within their existing retail business.Agency store contracts are normally awarded for a five-year term. In communities where there is currently anAgency store, as the contract nears expiry, the LCBO will take into consideration the fact that new businesses in the community may have been established and will allow an opportunity for all businesses in the community to compete for the next five-year term. Operating an LCBOAgency Store provides a retailer with an excellent opportunity to increase revenue and attract customers while providing local residents with beverage alcohol services. Agency stores also deliver economic benefits to the community in many cases through job creation and increased customer traffic for local merchants. Interested businesses must request by mail the application package for this competition before end of business day,Friday, August 9, 2013 and must quote the following information: RFP# 2013-120 Claremont Request forApplication Package Procurement and Contract Management, LCBO 1 Yonge Street, Suite 1404 Toronto, ON M5E 1E5 Please note: An application fee of $100 must be included with your request in order to receive an application package.

The Erie Admiral of the pre- mier clubs in Pennsylvania owned their division with large wins and came through as the favorites to win the tournament. The strong Erie contingent fell into the semis against Master’s Futbol Academy. MFA turned up the heat with some great ball movement to score five unanswered goals to leave their opponents stunned. The other semifinal featured the Pickering Soccer Club against Barbados. Pickering Soccer Club defeated the Barbados in penalty kicks to move on to the finals. MFA had previously defeated the Pickering Soccer Club 2-1 in the early round. MFA complete- ly out-played their opponents to score a 6-0 victory. CLEVELAND, OHIO -- The U13 Masters Futbol Academy team won the Cleveland Continental Cup soccer tournament in convincing fashion.
