OPG wants to build a deep geological repository to store low- and intermediate-level nuclear waste. Below: A diagram showing how far underground the waste would be stored. Ryan Pfeiffer / MetrolandNuclear waste goes underground OPG eyeing Deep Geological Repository near Bruce station for Pickering, Darlington nuclear waste Keith Gilligan kgilligan@durhamregion.com This is the first of a two-part feature on the plan by Ontario Power Generation to build a Deep Geological Repository to store low- and intermediate-level waste next to the Bruce nuclear station near Kincardine. The first part deals with OPG’s plan, while the sec- ond will deal with the community’s reaction. KINCARDINE -- What to do, what to do? For Ontario Power Generation, that’s an important question when it comes to waste, specifically radioactive waste. The Pickering nuclear station has been oper- ating for four decades and the Darlington station for two decades. That means a sig- nificant amount of waste coming in vary- ing levels of radioactivity. OPG has been working on a plan over the last decade to manage the low- and interme- diate-level waste -- bury it in a Deep Geo- logical Repository (DGR) next to the Bruce nuclear station at Kincardine. The proposed DGR plan is before a feder- ally-appointed joint review panel, which is wrapping up hearings this week.

Faces beaming, participants in the 29th edition of the Durham Regional Police Children’s Games walked, hopped and rolled through opening ceremonies Sat- urday morning at the Pickering Recre- ation Centre, prior to a day full of com- petition. They were welcomed by master of cer- emonies Brandon McAuley, who served as the 2012 pro- vincial Easter Seals Ambassador. Brandon told the athletes he had wanted to take part in the games, “but unfortunately I fell off my bike and broke my elbow”. He encouraged par- ticipants -- they competed in events like bowling, wheelchair soccer, hockey, golf and curling -- to strive to be their best. “I tell people that kids with physical disabilities can do anything,” Brandon enthused. “My motto is, if you keep try- ing, you will succeed.” Nearly 60 athletes and 200 cops, com- munity members and volunteers partic- ipated in the games, which can best be described as a labour of love for Consta- ble Will White and the members of his organizing committee. “It’s very satisfying, knowing the kids are getting an opportunity they may not get, and that we were able to facilitate that for them,” said Const. White, in his 17th year as a Durham officer and chair- man of the Games since 2011. “This year was a little bit more emo- tional for me -- I have a two-year-old at home now and I think I can identify with some of the issues these families are fac- ing,” he said. The games are geared to be challeng- ing and inclusive for kids aged six to 18 with a variety of physical limitations. Most popular this year were the hockey shoot-out -- a new event -- and the all- time favourite, a game of wheelchair rugby against police officers. Plans will soon begin for next year’s event, the 30th edition of the Games. DURHAM -- Participants in the annual Durham Police Children’s Games made their way into the Pickering Recreation Centre for opening ceremonies. Almost 60 athletes with physical limitations took part in the 29th annual event.

Jose Olmedo Renteria, 31, pleaded guilty to dangerous driving causing death and failure to remain at the scene of an acci- dent in the death of Jacoub Favila. Mr. Renteria was driving a Hummer H2 when it struck the boy’s family’s minivan on Hwy. 401 near Dixie Road around 4:30 p.m. on Jan. 1. The force of the impact crushed the rear passenger side of the vehicle where Jacoub was sitting. The Hummer did not stop and continued on to Dixie Road, where the vehicle was abandoned. The boy’s parents and three siblings were also in the vehicle.

Epilepsy Durham Region is develop- ing a seniors’ task force to create awareness, eliminate discrimination and better address the needs of those with epilepsy in the area. Epi- lepsy affects one in every 100 people, and EDR wants families to be aware of the growing preva- lence of epilepsy, especially in the often undiag- nosed senior age group, so they may discuss symptoms with their physicians. To become a member of the seniors task force, contact Dianne McKenzie at 905-430- 3090 or dmckenzie@epilepsydurham.com 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 • Oc t o b e r 3 0 , 2 0 1 3 4 P Possible changes to Pickering French immersion program Durham public school board to hold public meeting on Nov. 7 at Dunbarton Kristen Calis kcalis@durhamregion.com PICKERING -- The Durham District School Board hopes to shake up its French immersion programs in Pickering and is seeking the public’s input. At the Oct. 21 board meeting, trustees approved a consulta- tion process to create addition- al French immersion programs and a subsequent boundary change in Pickering. Currently, two of the board’s elementary schools in Pickering offer French immersion: the sin- gle-track program (just French) at Frenchman’s Bay Public School, and the dual-track pro- gram (French and English) at Sir John A. Macdonald P.S. “Both of these schools are located in the south end of Pickering,” said board superin- tendent Lisa Millar. The board, after hearing numerous requests over the years for a more central-north elementary French immersion school, and to alleviate enroll- ment pressures at Frenchman’s Bay, is proposing the addition of a dual-track French Immersion program at Maple Ridge P.S. Staff would have to redraw the current French immersion elementary boundaries, and expects roughly 170 current Frenchman’s Bay students and The Study The Regional Municipality of Durham is continuing its “Schedule B” Municipal Class Environmental Assessment (EA) study to examine options to re- route three local gravity sanitary sewers from Abbey Road, Cedarwood Court and Wildrose Crescent. These sewers are presently connected to the existing Southeast Collector Trunk Sewer (SEC). The disconnection from the SEC will improve the operation, maintenance and management of the existing York Durham Sewage System. Public Information Centre (PIC) No. 2 The Class EA process is nearing completion and the recommended sewer alignments have been selected (see map). Infrastructure Ontario has land holdings (Hydro corridor) in the study area. Easements are required for the recommended sewer alignments and have been assessed in accordance with the requirements of the Ministry of Infrastructure Class EA Process. The second PIC will be held to provide further details on the recommended alignments, as well as to receive input and comment from interested persons. This PIC will consist of an informal drop-in centre with displays and staff available to discuss the study: Date: Nov. 5, 2013 Time: 6 to 8:30 p.m. Location:Pine Ridge Secondary School (*see map) 2155 Liverpool Rd., Pickering Under the Freedom of Information and Protection of Privacy Act and The Environmental Assessment Act, unless otherwise stated in the submission, any personal information will become part of the public record files for this matter and will be released, if requested, to any person. Project information including presentation material from the PIC will be made available on the Region’s website at www.durham.ca/CDEAP.

Macdonald would be redirected to Maple Ridge. “Also, Pickering elementary schools have the least amount of students going from elemen- tary French immersion to sec- ondary French immersion in any area in the board,” said Ms. Millar. Currently, French immersion students in Pickering attend Pickering High School, which is located in Ajax. “We do not have a second- ary French immersion program within Pickering,” said Ms. Mil- lar. Staff believes Pickering’s low enrolment in secondary French Immersion is due to the distance and travel time to Pickering High. For that reason, and to address capacity pressures at Pickering High, staff is also proposing a secondary French Immersion program at Dunbarton High School, located in Pickering. If the board approves the Maple Ridge program, students from Maple Ridge and French- man’s Bay would attend Dun- barton after graduation, and students attending Sir John A. Macdonald would continue attending Pickering High. “It will certainly alleviate pres- sure on Pickering High, but give students the opportunity to attend Dunbarton, which may be closer to where they live,” said Pickering Trustee Chris Braney. Ajax Trustee Yvonne Forbes said she’s pleased to see the change would mean the elimi- nation of portables at Pickering High. “It’s really a rejoice to see no portables in 2017,” she said. The board projects no porta- bles will be used at Dunbarton High School either. The board now plans to con- sult the public on the proposals. An open house will take place Thursday, Nov. 7 from 7 to 8:30 p.m. at Dunbarton High School, 655 Sheppard Ave., Pickering. The board will also set up a ded- icated e-mail and phone num- ber to gather feedback. Internationally acclaimed author visits Pine Ridge PICKERING -- Donna Morrissey, author of five internationally- acclaimed novels, spoke with students at Pine Ridge Secondary School about being a writer and the writing process recently. She also conducted a workshop entitled ‘Getting to the Heart of the Story’ during which she helped students take an autobiographical moment and turn it into a polished piece of writing.

Even though it is one year away, our plan- ning is starting now. This week I want to tell you about two of the bigger projects we work on during the year, our Ontario Scholars section and our Night and Day project. Night and Day was the brainchild of our managing editor of multi media, Ron Pietroniro. He wanted our staff to cover one aspect of life in Durham for a full 24 hours. Photographers start their day at midnight and finish their shift 24 hours later. Our reporters join them at various assignments and the finished product brings together the pictures and written words in a very stylized book. Our first book featured a very general look at life in Durham. Last year, we focused on our hospitals. This year, we spent time on Oct. 18 at farms, in bars and restaurants and at entertainment venues to tell the story of culture in Durham. Watch for the book coming out in the next month or two. Our other big project is now halfway completed. Every high school Ontario Scholar in Durham is featured, a mam- moth task. We contact the schools in early September, asking them to supply photos. This week we’ll start converting those pic- tures, more than 1,000, to the proper for- mat. Then over the next few weeks we’ll load them on the pages and get them ready for print. Our scholar section is one of the most popular features we run each year in the paper. I start receiving calls in April from very excited parents wanting to know when their scholar will be in the paper. Scholars in Oshawa, Whitby and Clarington runs in late November. In Ajax and Pickering the photos run a few weeks later in December. -- Managing editor Mike Johnston is thankful to all the schools that got their photos in without too much urg- ing this year. Mike Johnston Managing Editor Planning Safety first this Halloween night Zombies, ghosts, vampires and other spooky creatures are hitting the streets of Durham tomorrow night and we all need to ensure they stay safe and have a great time. Halloween is upon us and for young peo- ple in Pickering, Newcastle, Port Perry and all points in between, it’s one of the biggest highlights of the year. On this night only, kids can dress up in scary or not-so-scary costumes and roam local neighbourhoods, ringing bells and knocking on doors with an excited ‘trick or treat’. And while this light-hearted romp prompts more smiles than screams, home- owners, motorists and young people them- selves need to be careful on our streets so this Halloween doesn’t become truly scary. Homeowners who are shelling out treats this year should ensure that their porch- es are well lit, both so young people know there are treats to be had and so they can see well enough to climb your steps safe- ly. We’re almost at the end of Daylight Savings Time and it’s dark out there fairly early at this time of year so be sure to turn your lights on. And when you consider that many kids will be wearing masks that may inhibit their vision, a well-lit home will help ensure they can get to and from your house in a safe manner. It’s also important to ensure your porch and even the entire front of your house, including the sidewalk, are debris free. Leaves are a big culprit at this time of year and can be very slippery, especially when wet. So rake them up and get them out of the way. But also check for patio furniture, garden implements and the like and be sure they won’t trip up youngsters. If you’re out driving on Halloween night, be on the lookout for young people scurry- ing about. Drive more slowly in residential areas. Be extra careful when backing out of and pulling into a driveway, at stop signs and when making turns. Remember, many of these kids are very excited and their desire to fill up a bag or pillowcase with candy and other treats might make them careless. As for the young people themselves, it’s always best to go trick or treating with a family member or a group of friends. You can look out for one another and be an extra set of eyes for your buddies. Exercise caution when crossing roads; always look both ways and don’t run. If we’re all a bit more vigilant on Hallow- een night, we can help make it a safe and fun time for our young people. ‘Gold-plated pensioner’ comment misleading To the editor: Re: ‘Another gold-plated pensioner’, letter, Oct. 24, Ajax News Advertiser. Further to Mr. Wheeler’s comments, I’ll offer a few of my own. I am one of those civil servants who will receive an OMERS pen- sion at the end of my career. To receive a full pension, I will have to work 35 years, retiring at the age of 60. During those 35 years, I will have paid a significant amount of money into the OMERS plan. I take exception to Mr. Wheeler’s comments about this being a ‘gold-plated pension’. It is anything but that. After working for only six years, an MP receives a full pension starting at the age of 55. This is being changed to age 65 in 2015. All other civil servants have to work between 30 and 35 years for their full pension. So Mr. Wheeler, cut (retiring Durham police chief Mike Ewles) some slack. To retire at the age of 52, he must have started working for a munic- ipality at the age of at least 21. He’s put in his time, at least 30 years, and now it’s time for him to retire, which will allow a younger member of the DRPS to be pro- moted. I am not a police officer supporting his chief. I’m just another future “gold-plated pensioner” who works 42 hours a week, on weekends, nights, and stat holidays. Gord Tewnion, Ajax Brainstorming ... but not that kind Over millennia, the human ear has evolved to the point where it immediate- ly places the body on high alert upon the detection and recognition of certain nois- es: the cry of a baby, the crackle of flame, an inebriated teen fumbling with house keys well after curfew. In each of these cases, the subject may be deeply unconscious and yet, miraculously, the sound finds its way to the brain’s tiny, almond-shaped amygdala and within sec- onds we are wide awake and reacting. I happen to be a dog lover and so, high on the scale of my particular evolution- ary early warning system is the sound of an animal preparing to vomit on a carpet. It’s true. Even well into the dream state, with- in milliseconds of hearing the sump-pump like, chest-deep, pneumatic heavings of my Great Dane/Lab cross, I will be up and fly- ing down the stairs in an effort to save the Oriental weave from further desecration. Now, although the speed at which all of this occurs is truly astonishing, it is impor- tant to note that while many parts of our reptilian brain respond instantaneously in this situation, other, more complex portions of our grey matter take slightly longer to get up to speed. Unfortunately these areas, like the parietal and occipital lobe, handle fairly important matters of higher thinking, prob- lem solving and decision making. For instance, I sleep in the nude. Quite clearly too much information, I know, but please bear with me, pun fully intend- ed. Seconds after my caveman brain has screamed me out of bed and I am rac- ing down the hallway in my altogether, the sleepy, intellectual voice of my cere- brum mumbles something about putting a housecoat on. “No time!” shouts my basal ganglia, “He’s on his third wretch! It must be last night’s mushroom gravy ... that pooch is about to go to Defcon 4.” But then, as I am barreling down the stairs in the dark and that self-same survival brain is now very logically recommending to my cerebellum that my hand reach for a light switch, my suddenly wide-awake frontal lobe ironically overrides everything, insist- ing that because I am in my birthday suit, it would be better if I did this chore in the dark. Turning on a light might illuminate my naked form to the outside world and thus possibly offend the one homeless per- son wandering the streets at 3 a.m. What follows is like a piece of terribly bad performance art. A middle-aged, naked man stumbles about in the dark. Shin meets coffee table, toes meet chair legs, the air is choked with profanity. I have a moment of clarity, a gift from my prefrontal cortex no doubt, wherein I am grateful none of my furniture sits at genital level. And then, the coup de grace. At the moment when my temporal lobe is register- ing the fact that the dog is no longer mak- ing noise, the nerves on the underside of my bare foot light up my touch-sensitive pari- etal lobe like the Rockefeller Center Christ- mas tree as I step in a warm pool of freshly disgorged canine hurl. The house is dark and eerily quiet but my head is brightly spinning with conversation as all parts of my idiotic brain are now up and at ’em. “Wow, you better clean that up,” “I think there are paper towels under the sink,” “Geez, it’s cold in here,” “I have to pee.” Shut up, all of you. Just shut up. -- Durham resident Neil Crone, actor, comic, writer, saves some of his best lines for this column. Enter Laughing Neil Crone Actor, comic, writer, Question: Remembrance Day is near.

I ended up using 1/15 of a second, which gave a nice balance between blurring the background while keep- ing the skaters’ faces sharp enough. It took a few hundred pictures to get a few usable ones.

There’s a home business operat- ing within the bounds of a municipal bylaw, bringing a little extra traf- fic to a street of retirees and this is a prob- lem, how? Jennifer Schroder: Instead of complaining about the people out there who are try- ing to make it on their own, complain about the high per- centage of job capable people leeching off society for welfare. Nicole Anstey: I live in a subdivision and my neigh- bour fixes small engines from his home I would not think about asking him to give up a piece of his income so I don’t have to see cars on the street. Joanne Carnovale: A lady across from me has a home based business and cars come and go all the time. I’m glad we have the traf- fic, it keeps drug dealers, burglars, and general mischief makers away, and that means there is someone always home in the neighbourhood to watch your house when you are gone.

She in turn will pres- ent the recommendation to cabinet, which will make the final decision on whether the repository is approved. Since nuclear operations began, OPG (and its predecessor Ontario Hydro) has produced about 200,000 cubic metres of low-level waste, stored at the Bruce site. The company has 14 specially-constructed buildings hous- ing about 90,000 cubic metres of low-level waste. Currently, low waste is stored above ground, while the intermediate is buried in the ground in specially-designed silos. Lise Morton, the director of the low and intermediate waste facility at Bruce, said low- level waste can be handled without any pro- tective clothing or shielding. With intermediate-level waste, shielding is required, she added. “Our procedures and engineering controls provides the shielding,” Ms. Morton said. “We incinerate the low level waste to reduce its volume and the ash will go into the DGR,” she noted. Some low-level waste, such as pumps or steam generators, can’t be incinerated. Incinerating the waste reduces its volume by 95 per cent, while compaction reduces it by 75 per cent. Low-level waste includes things such as mop heads, cloths, paper towels and pro- tective clothing, while intermediate waste includes items “closer to the reactor core, such as resins. It will be radioactive for thou- sands of years. Low-level waste is really only radioactive for hundreds of years,” said OPG spokesman Neal Kelly. The planned repository would be built 680 metres (2,230 feet) below the surface in rock. As a comparison, the CN Tower stands 553 metres high. Mr. Kelly said it would take five to seven years to construct the facility and it carries a $1 billion price tag. OPG has calculated that “all low and inter- mediate waste from current operations and refurbishment will go into the DGR,” Mr. Kelly noted. Lynda Cain, who works in nuclear waste management for OPG at Bruce, notes, “We still have a lot of space on the surface.” She added if the company wanted to expand the repository, it would have to undertake another environmental assess- ment. Dylan Luhowy, a senior engineer with the Nuclear Waste Management Organization, said the site of the repository is ideal. “Geo- logically speaking, it’s a very undeformed, predictable layers of rock,” said Mr. Luhowy, who is on contract to work on the DGR. The rock where the DGR will be built is part of the ‘Cobourg foundation’ and is five times stronger than cement. “Cobourg is a really hard rock,” Mr. Luhowy noted. The intake tunnels at the Darlington nucle- ar station are built in the Cobourg foundation and it’s a good rock to build in, Mr. Luhowy said. The nearest the lake is to the DGR is 1.2 kilometres, Mr. Kelly said, adding the reposi- tory is in 450 million-year-old rock. “It will safely isolate the low- and interme- diate-level waste from the lake and ground- water. Groundwater is near the surface,” Mr. Kelly added. “There are multiple barriers around the proposed DGR to provide safety. The geologists will tell you the Bruce site is an excellent site. It’s excellent geology to build the DGR.” Mr. Luhowy said the repository would be the same size underground as the surface site. “There’s no water flow through it at all,” Mr. Luhowy noted. “That’s why we’re confi- dent the waste isn’t going anywhere for thou- sands of years. It will only move a couple of metres.” The maximum lake depth within 40 kilo- metres of the facility is 200 metres. “It’s very, very dry down there, so dust control will take a lot of effort,” Mr. Luhowy added. “We have all that rock isolating us from the surface,” Mr. Luhowy said. “The maximum well depth is 100 metres. We’re 500 metres below that. We can be confident that well water is protected.” Mr. Kelly noted there’s no oil, minerals, gas or salt “that future generations will come to look for. We know that through our bore holes.” Eight bore holes were drilled around the facility. As one time, Texaco drilled for oil near the site, but came up empty. “There are very consistent layers of rock over long distances. We have 200 metres of shale above it,” Mr. Luhowy noted. “There’s water in (the rock), but it’s water that’s been trapped for 400 million years,” Mr. Luhowy said. “It’s a very good feature.” It’s unlikely anyone would drill there in the future “because there’s nothing there,” Mr. Kelly said. In 185 years of record keeping, earthquake activity shows nothing about five on the Rich- ter scale. “You can feel it, but it’s not anything catastrophic,” Mr. Luhowy noted. He described the site as “nice and stable. “It’s easy to construct with traditional drill- ing technology,” Mr. Luhowy said. He said tunnels would be built for “stability and constructability.” OPG looking to bury nuclear waste OPG from page 1 (Left): Drawing of the buildings as part of the Deep Geological Repository, where low-lev- el nuclear waste would be stored. (Right) A schematic drawing of the repository. OPG illustrations Nuclear waste explained What’s the difference between low- and intermediate-level waste? Low-level waste is radioac- tive and will remain so for 300 years, while intermediate waste will remain radioactive for thousands of years. Of the low and intermediate-level waste at Bruce, about 95 per cent is low level and the remainder is intermediate. underground KINCARDINE -- Lise Morton is director of low- and intermediate-level nuclear waste at Ontario Power Generation’s western waste management facility at Bruce Power. Intermediate-level waste requires radiation shielding during transportation, handling and storage. It is stored in ‘in-ground’ structures or storage buildings such as these.

Durham scores international awards for battery collection Project diverts 39 metric tonnes of batteries form landfill DURHAM -- The Region of Durham’s curbside battery collection program has won two awards from the Solid Waste Association of North America. Durham was recently recognized with a Gold Excellence Award in the special waste category and a Bronze Excellence Award in the public education catego- ry. “During our battery collection pilot program, we were able to recover more batteries in one week than we normally do in a year, diverting a total of 39 metric tonnes of batteries from landfill,” said works commissioner Cliff Curtis. “This is a great achievement, and we thank SWANA for recogniz- ing our efforts on an international scale.” Durham’s next spe- cial battery collection runs the week of Nov. 4 to 8. Residents who receive curbside col- lection service are reminded to set out their used batteries for recycling on their reg- ular collection day. Households in Ajax, Brock, Claring- ton, Pickering, Scugog and Uxbridge will receive an orange sticker in their waste management calendars, via Canada Post. The sticker should be affixed to a sealed, clear, “zipper-style” bag contain- ing unwanted batteries and placed on top of the blue box. Residents of Oshawa and Whitby can pick up a sticker at local municipal offic- es, fire halls and other community loca- tions. Bags without an orange sticker will also be accepted. Only used or unwanted single-use, dry-cell, alkaline batteries should be set out for collection. For more information and upcoming collection dates, visit www.durham.ca/ battery.

The disease, known as epidermoly- sis bullosa, is a tissue disorder which causes blisters to form and is charac- terized by exceptionally fragile skin and painful chronic wounds. Christopher LeBlanc is a tattoo art- ist with the skin disease, along with his two children Max and Malia who had a 50 percent chance of inheritance. With his wife, Heidi Graf, he created the fundraiser, which raised $4,000 last year. All proceeds will go to DEBRA Cana- da, the only charity dedicated to peo- ple affected by EB in the country. In support of International Epider- molysis Bullosa Awareness Week, the Pickering-based studio will donate 50 per cent of all proceeds to DEBRA Canada from each tattoo performed from 1 to 8 p.m. up until Oct. 31. Tattoo vouchers can also be purchased, with proceeds going to charity. Emily Boros from Art by Emily will also be featured in the event, showcas- ing her paintings and donating pro- ceeds made from her butterfly jewel- ry. The studio is located at 7-776 Liver- pool Rd.

Club members, politicians and city staff gathered under a tent at 1975 Clements Rd. to celebrate the official start to the Pickering Soccer Centre, scheduled for completion in the spring of 2014. “It’s going to be tremendous. It’s going to be huge,” said Pickering Soccer Club pres- ident Phil Frampton. “Now we can bring all our operations under one roof. “During the winter our competitive and indoor teams are playing all over Toronto, Durham. Now we can bring them together under one roof. There is a place that they can call home and they are going to love it here.” Frampton added that the club initially recognized the need for an indoor facility 20 years ago, and even considered using a warehouse for winter programs. Once a suitable location was found and a business plan formalized, a unique partnership was formed between the City of Pickering and Pickering Soccer Club. The club’s head coach, Tony La Ferra- ra, can’t wait to implement some of the ideas he has for the utilization of the 9,000 square foot air supported dome. “The impact? I don’t think you can mea- sure it,” he said. “People don’t have to travel too far. The family life will be bet- ter. Hopefully we’ll grow even more with this in terms of membership. The quality of coaching will be better, player develop- ment will be better. “We’re probably one of the very few clubs in Ontario, if not Canada, to have an opportunity to have an indoor facility that is being managed by the club. The City is going to build it for us and leave it to us to fill it and manage it. We’re very fortunate.” The facility will include a full-sized turf soccer field that can be divided into four smaller pitches, a 100m track and club- house that can be used for storage and meetings. While the facility will be used primarily by soccer teams, other user groups will be welcomed, including ulti- mate frisbee, rugby, football, senior groups and schools to name just a few of the pos- sibilities. La Ferrara would like to invite interna- tional coaches to the facility for seminars, as well as having the Toronto FC put on clinics for players. There have also been discussions with provincial and national programs to utilize the facility, as well as making it available to teams to practise during the 2015 Pan Am Games. The club envisions its 3,500 member- ship to increase with the availability of year-round training. Mayor Dave Ryan described Monday’s ceremony as a “major step forward in realizing the collective dream of a new Pickering Soccer Centre,” adding it was an important milestone in the history of the City. The $7-million facility is going to be funded by the City and repaid by the Pickering Soccer Club over a 15-year period. The soccer centre represents the first brand new facility in Pickering in 12 years. PICKERING -- Mayor Dave Ryan along with council members and members of the Pickering Soccer Club put their shovels in the dirt at the official ground breaking ceremony that was held for the new Pickering Soccer Centre, on Clements Road in Pickering Monday afternoon. Sabrina Byrnes / Metroland Perdita Felicien announces retirement PICKERING -- Two-time Olympian, two- time world champion and two-time world championship silver medalist Perdita Fel- icien of Pickering officially announced her retirement from athletics. The announcement was made at a special event with 300 kids at George Webster Elementary School in Toronto. “The last 13 years racing for Canada have been the most formidable years of my life,” explained Felicien to the crowd of wide-eyed children, and throngs of friends, family and supporters. “They were a sobering cocktail of triumph, heartbreak and perseverance. I always thought when my retirement came, that I would feel sad. Instead I stand fiercely proud of all that I achieved and I feel a massive sense of honour in representing such a beautiful nation.” She added: “I want to thank everyone who believed in me and cheered loudly, it was a thrilling ride, thanks for taking it with me.” Following the announcement, Perdi- ta talked to the kids at George Webster Elementary about the importance of a lifelong commitment to a healthy active lifestyle and about her experiences in tackling adversity, something she dealt with admirably throughout her decorated career. Felicien retires as the Canadian record holder in both the 100-metre hurdles and 60-metre hurdles, a 10-time Canadian champion (2000, 2002-2007, 2009-2011), a two-time Olympian (2000, 2004), a two-time world champion (2003, 2004-indoor), a two-time world champion- ship silver medalist (2007, 2010-indoor), a two-time Pan American Games silver medalist (2003, 2007) and a three-time NCAA champion.

A new report has been prepared which identifies the eleven most common of these problems, and what you should know about them before you list your home for sale. Whether you own an old home or a brand new one, there are a number of things that can fall short of requirements during a home inspection. If not identified and dealt with, any of these 11 items could cost you dearly in terms of repair. That’s why it’s critical that you read this report before you list your home. If you wait until the building inspector flags these issues for you, you will almost certainly experience costly delays in the close of your home sale or, worse, turn prospective buyers away altogether. In most cases, you can make a reasonable pre-inspection yourself if you know what you’re looking for, and knowing what you’re looking for can help you prevent little problems from growing into costly and unmanageable ones. To help homesellers deal with this issue before their homes are listed, a free report entitled “11 Things Yo u Need to Know to Pass Yo ur Home Inspection” has been compiled which explains the issues involved. To hear a brief recorded message about how to order your FREE copy of this report call toll-free 1-800-611-8940 and enter 1003 .Yo u can call any time, 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.

Pickering won its third consecutive LOSSA crown, and fifth in the last six years, booking a ticket to the OFSAA provin- cial championships by blanking Ajax 1-0 in the championship final at Civic Fields in Oshawa. Through eight regular sea- son games, and three more in the play- offs, Pickering didn’t allow a single goal against. “Out of any team I’ve ever had, this is one of the most talented teams I’ve ever seen,” said head coach Kelly Sadowski moments after the game on a chilly and windy after- noon. “Their skill level, dedication and love of field hockey, it comes out every day at practice and on the field in games.” Kendra Prince had the only goal of the LOSSA final in the first half, standing up as the winner. Pickering marched through the regular season with eight consecutive wins, out- scoring the opposition by a whopping 43-0 in the process. The domination continued in the playoffs, blanking J. Clarke 4-0 and Henry St. 7-0 in the quarter-final and semi- final respectively. Goaltenders Milcah Sutanto, who played in the LOSSA final, and Carolyn Jamieson, were unbeatable all season. Not allowing a goal in 11 games in a row is remarkable for a team that lost most of its defensive players from last year, and had to convince some offensive players to drop back this year to help protect the goal. “We can play so much offence because our defence is so dominate,” said Sadowski. “We intercepted quite a bit, we moved the ball quickly and that’s difficult for teams to play against because you are constantly against an offensive attack.” The final against Ajax was a repeat of a year ago, which Pickering won 2-1 in over- time. Advancing to OFSAA, Pickering was seeded third in the 16-team tournament, but eliminated in the quarter-finals. This time around the provincial cham- pionships are in Kitchener-Waterloo from Oct. 31 to Nov. 2. Sadowski would like to field her complete roster, hoping to avoid a conflict with commitments to other sports like hockey, ringette and soccer. “To win at OFSAA it’s going to take skill, determination and endurance,” she said. “You’re playing four games in two days and then going right into the playoffs.” Pickering has been seeded No. 6 for the OFSAA championships, while Ajax will also compete, rounding out the 16-team field. OSHAWA -- Ajax High School’s Tiffany Villeneuve and Pickering High School’s Shannice Thomas battled for the ball during the LOSSA finals for girls’ field hockey at the Oshawa Civic Fields. Pickering defeated Ajax 1-0. Sabrina Byrnes / Metroland Annandale hosts junior bonspiel PICKERING -- The Annandale Curling Club is gearing up for one of its marquee events.
