Jason Liebregts / Metroland You can print a basketball? Pickering library first in Durham to offer 3D printer for public use Jillian Follert jfollert@durhamregion.com PICKERING -- The latest addition to the Pickering Public Library looks like something straight out of Star Trek. The local library recently became the first in Durham to make a 3D printer available for public use. The MakerBot Replicator 2 3D printer is about the size of a microwave and is able to create three dimensional plastic objects such as rings, bracelets, whistles and iPod cases. On a recent weekday after- noon, kids crowded around the machine as it printed a bright orange miniature basketball. “That is so cool,” breathed one boy as a mechanical arm moved back and forth, carefully layer- ing thin strings of plastic over and over to form the shape of the ball. The cost of the $2,500 printer was covered by a grant from the Ministry of Culture, Tourism and Sport. “Many libraries tuck them away or make you take a course or be certified to use them,” says Pickering Public Library CEO Cathy Grant. “We put it out in the open, we want everyone to use it.” See NEW page 2 Pickering residents invited to offer feedback on Rouge park Draft management plan released for consultation PICKERING -- Local residents are being asked to provide feedback on plans for the new Rouge National Urban Park. The federal government recently launched a public consultation pro- cess for the draft management plan, the park’s primary guiding docu- ment. Members of the public can attend upcoming open houses, communi- ty events and meetings planned for Pickering, Toronto and Markham between July and September. Dates and times will be announced in the coming weeks. On June 13 legislation was tabled to create Rouge National Urban Park, Canada’s first national urban park and the Greater Toronto Area’s first nationally-protected area. Once fully established, the park will feature an expanded trail net- work, volunteer and stewardship opportunities, Parks Canada pro- gramming and new conservation and restoration initiatives. The management plan will be the guiding document for managing Rouge National Urban Park over the next 10 years. In addition to setting targets and priorities for the park, it will lay out a framework for what the park will look like. Sarah’s second chance AJAX -- Sarah Ginn comes to the door of her Ajax home to greet her visitor, a killer smile lighting up her face. She extends a hand and a soft- spoken and gracious welcome. Only a faint scar on her chin and what sounds like a speech impedi- ment offer a preview of the story she’s about to share. The 33-year- old woman, who once dreamed of becoming a police officer like her father, was instead dealt a dif- ferent hand to play in life -- and a cruel hand, it was -- but one sens- es straight away that adopting the victim mentality never occurred to the articulate young woman. Hers is the spirit of a warrior, and a wise one at that. Full story, page 10 August 31, 2014 Coupon must be present when service order is written.

There is a small cost, ranging from 50 cents for a project that takes up to 20 minutes to print, to $3 for a two-hour print job. Ms. Grant says the new printer is another example of the library’s efforts to encourage learning. “Libraries have always been about pro- viding free, equal access to the tools of learning,” she explains. “In the past, that was primarily books. Now, it’s so much more than that.” The Pickering library also recently introduced Google Chromebooks for public use. The WiFi enabled personal laptops are designed to be used with a Google account. They are available for loan for a four-hour period within the library. Other high-tech offerings include iMacs, a green screen to make iPad vid- eos, eReaders, ebooks, iPods, audio- books and snap-together circuit creation with littleBits. Ms. Grant says she would love to see a 3D scanner become the next addition. “We want to support curiosity and discovery however we can,” she says. 3D printers work by taking a computer- generated design for an object and using material such as plastic or metal to form the shape. Most 3D printers use an “additive pro- cess,” which sees thin layers of the mate- rial placed over top of each other over and over again, eventually building up to “print” the object. The 3D printer can be found at the Pickering Central Library at One the Esplanade. Users must have a Pickering Public Library card and print jobs are limited to a maximum of two hours.

Union to vote Tuesday, Region on Thursday Keith Gilligan kgilligan@durhamregion.com DURHAM -- A tentative deal has been reached between Durham Region and strik- ing CUPE Local 1764. The two sides reached an agreement in the early hours of Tuesday, following a mar- athon bargaining session that began Mon- day at 10 a.m. Neither side would comment on the con- tents of the final deal until it’s been ratified. Pauline Hopley, president of the local, said the union is recommending its members ratify the deal. “I’m pleased it’s over. I’m pleased we have an agreement our mem- bers will be happy with,” she said. “I can safely say if we recommend it, it’s good to go and we can get our members back to work. “I can’t get into details, because our mem- bers haven’t seen it,” she added. Matt Gaskell, the Region’s commission- er of corporate services, said, “I’m pleased with the results. We did achieve what the Region was trying to achieve, which is a deal that’s responsible and affordable, and builds some personal accountability by paramed- ics.” He was also pleased “the parties reached a deal. It’s always best when the parties reach a deal.” The union had been pushing for ‘interest arbitration,’ something the Region didn’t want to pursue. He praised the efforts of mediator Gerry Lee, saying his presence was “critical. Both parties know him. He’s a very effective mediator. He was effective pushing the par- ties to a deal. I’ll give him his due. He was very effective with both parties.” Ms. Hopley also praised the work of Mr. Lee, saying, “He’s awesome. We suggested bring- ing Gerry Lee in to the employer. We have all the faith in him, the respect in him as a medi- ator. He gets to the bones of where we need to be. He did an excellent job. I have so much respect for him.” This was the first time in the negotiations that Mr. Lee was brought in, she added. Regional council will have to approve the contract and the earliest that can be done is Thursday, Mr. Gaskell noted, adding 24 hours’ notice has to be given prior to a special council meeting being held. If the union members turn down the deal, the two sides will head back to the bargaining table, Mr. Gaskell said. “It’s my hope we’ve reached a deal both sides can agree with. CUPE is recommending to its members to approve it. On that basis, I’m quite confident with it. I’m confident it protects the Region’s interest.” Union members were to vote on the deal Tuesday. About 1,600 members of CUPE Local 1764 began striking at 6 a.m. on June 19 after con- tract talks hit a snag. The sticking point was the Region’s insistence on addressing an absenteeism issue by paramedics, who are part of the Local. Others represented by the Local work in child care, income support, court services, public health inspections and traffic operations. ne w s d u r h a m ne w s d u r h a m ne w s d u r h a m YOUR CASINOTOUR SPECIALISTS!

Unit 4 TheUPSStoreTM Six year old hurt in Pickering go-kart accident improving Child’s injuries no longer considered life-threatening PICKERING -- A six-year-old girl injured in a go-karting accident in Pickering on Canada Day is out of the woods and her condition is no longer considered life- threatening. The Scarborough girl was airlifted to SickKids after she crashed a go-kart into two parked vehicles in an industrial parking lot on Clements Road the eve- ning of July 1. The girl was not wearing a helmet and suffered head injuries. Detective Constable Dave Ashfield said her main injury was a head injury that has significantly improved. She also hurt one of her fingers. “The swelling in her brain went down and she’s looking to be home in a day or two,” he said. The girl was at a party when the acci- dent occurred and was being supervised, though her parents were not there. “What it was, it was a gathering of friends, they were wait- ing for the fireworks,” said Det. Const. Ash- field. The parents declined to speak to the media at this time, said Det. Const. Ash- field, who added they were spend- ing their time at the hospital. The officer said all the children at the gathering were taking turns in the go-kart. “They just said their daughter was try- ing it, every other kid had tried it ... it was just unfortunate their daughter got hurt,” he said. He said there is no law against using a go-kart but reiterated that they, and other motorized toys, should be used in areas free of obstacles such as garbage bins and parked cars. “Anytime you’re dealing with a child on any kind of motorized toy, they should be wearing safety equipment,” he said.

By all accounts, Brandan was a great guy. He was loved by his family and friends. On Tuesday, June 24 Brandan died by suicide. I had heard his name in passing during the years but I didn’t know him. Distance does that. We live in Claring- ton, his family is in London. Brandan was my wife’s cousin’s son. At the standing-room only funeral his dad didn’t shy away from how Brandan died. He bravely faced it head on, through the tears and intermittent laughter that comes with telling funny stories at an Irish funeral. Brandan was bi-polar, his dad said, his voice cracking. He had good days and very dark days. His dad noted one in four people with bi-polar disorder will attempt suicide. Brandan was a great guy who loved nothing more than to see his fam- ily and friends smile. Unfortunately, for many days, there was no smiling for Bran- dan. His dad noted the disorder can lead people into dark places for days, weeks, months or years. Suicide has been a topic our ethics committee at the paper has been discuss- ing lately. Our committee is discussing the best way to report on suicides. It happens more than we want to admit. Some people see that act as their only choice. There are a lot of articles on how the media reports suicide. A main recom- mendation is not to sensationalize the act, which could lead to copycat suicides. Another suggestion is not to write “commit- ted suicide”. A person dies by suicide. When should media report a suicide? If readers call to say they saw a number of police cars near a park, should the media report that suicide? What if it was a private act, in a home?

According to the article, president of CUPE Ontario Fred Hahn said, “It’s rain- ing because God’s crying at how stupid the Region of Durham is for taking on their workers ...” Is this guy for real? I am so glad I am no longer paying dues to CUPE. Jeff Goodall Stay home, tokers To the editor: Re: ‘What’s the worst that can happen’, letter to the editor, durhamregion.com, June 20, 2014. If the letter writer wants to toke and get nice and mellow, he’d better continue to spend his time in his back yard munching his favourite junk food. I sure don’t want him driving a vehicle, including a bicycle, and have him float through an intersection hitting me or some other innocent civilian who is completely awake and alert. Before that happened, I would hope a cop would catch him and deal with him in a mellow and judicious way. J. Beverly Ewen CUPE failed members with strike action Somewhere along the way, CUPE executives misread the mood of their members and the tolerance of the public in their ill-advised and damaging strike action in the Region of Durham. Though a tentative deal was struck Mon- day evening, too many of CUPE Local 1764’s members were forced out of work for two weeks due to a bargaining impasse with the Region in relation to paramedic sick time. A razor-thin vote led to the strike, which subsequently exposed serious divisions among CUPE members, many of whom urged Local leader Pauline Hopley to get back to the bargaining table. In the meantime, this unnecessary labour action had an impact on the most vulnera- ble people in Durham Region who rely on the services provided by CUPE. According to Clarence Keesman, executive director at the Refuge, an Oshawa drop-in centre for homeless or struggling youth, two clients last week -- one navigating the system to access Ontario Works benefits, the other a single mother trying to secure a place to live -- were thwarted by the CUPE strike. Other vulnerable residents who rely on CUPE services were also surely affected, as were the many CUPE members such as court services officials, health inspectors, and childcare workers who were forced out of their jobs. The absentee/sick time issue related to paramedics, who were prevented from striking since they provide an essential ser- vice, was the major sticking point that led to the June 19 walkout. In the simplest terms, this strike could have been avoided had the union executive not chosen to double down on the absen- tee/sick time issue for such a small compo- nent of the local. A much larger portion of the membership, many of whom were criti- cal of their union leadership throughout the strike action, felt somewhat betrayed, and who could blame them? It’s notable, too, that CUPE members in Oshawa successful- ly bargained a new contract late last month with the City. There are some vital lessons to be taken from this unnecessary action for local CUPE leadership, starting with fence-mending among those members who felt their lead- ership gave them short shrift (48 per cent voted against the initial strike action). And we call on them to examine the impact on those who were harmed by the strike. This strike was unfair, unnecessary and damaging. Much work is to be done to repair relationships and win the confidence of taxpayers again. Less why, more wow I was considering the idea of a bucket list the other day and I found myself startled to realize that I was having a very hard time filling it. Try as I might, I could not come up with more than a couple of what, in retrospect, are embarrassingly lame, must-do-in-this- life items. I want to put my feet in the Mis- sissippi River and drive the Pacific coast highway. Pathetically, beyond those two, I begin to flounder. I can easily come up with oodles of things I might find interest- ing or marginally exciting; taking a water- colour course, learning to sail, hiking the Appalachian trail, trying all of the Captain Crunch cereal flavours. But none of these burns in my consciousness, the way I feel a truly bucket-list-worthy item should. The bucket list, after all, is reserved for those landmark experiences without which a life might be considered incom- plete or worse, wasted. I confess this unsettles me. What does it say about a per- son when his dream tank sits only at about a quarter full? A part of me, the New Agey, Buddhist, chakra-stroking self, says that this is the result of an already very contentedly lived life, a soul that knows how to take great joy from whichever present he finds him- self in. One who experiences happiness on a daily basis does not need the carrot of dreams to push him forward. But my real self knows better. My real self wants to punch that boring New Age liar in the mouth and tell him to get off his fat, complacent Buddhist butt and start really sucking the juice out of this life. My real self, thankfully, is honest and forthright and unafraid to let me know when I’m coasting. Because dreaming, I’m beginning to understand, really dreaming big, the kind of dreams that do fire the soul and ani- mate a life, requires courage. The realiza- tion of dreams, even just holding a dream, involves risk, change, letting go of the safe, the known, the comfortable. None of which has ever come easily to this lover of routine. And that, I believe, is what lies at the heart of a sadly anemic bucket list. Not contentment, but fear. And that also, as my dad would say, is no way to run a railroad. I imagine the greatest heartache a human can face, the deepest despair he can expe- rience, is to draw one’s last breath and sud- denly wonder: why? Why was I so scared? Why did I not do what I wanted to do? What I was called to do? What I knew in my heart of hearts would’ve made me soar with happiness? Why? In fact, I imagine the most common- ly heard sound in heaven is not choirs of angelic hosts or the mellifluous tones of seraphim-plucked harps, but the slap of regretful palms striking foreheads. Why? Why? Why, indeed? I have no plans to check out of this world anytime soon, but I’m also aware that I am clearly on the back nine. So I’m going to keep on contemplating my bucket list. I’m going to spend a little more time consider- ing some dreams. Rolling them around in my mind and on my tongue until they lose the sour taste of fear and take on the sweet flavour of real, anticipated, deserved fun. Until risk, change and unpredictability are no longer threats but delicious seasoning for a life well lived. Maybe then, at the end, there’ll be fewer ‘whys’ and a hell of a lot more ‘wows.’ -- Durham resident Neil Crone, actor, comic, writer, saves some of his best lines for this column. 10 Fun Jobs That Pay Surprisingly Well Enter Laughing Neil Crone Actor, comic, writer Let’s Talk Weigh in with readers on topics of the day www.facebook.com/ newsdurham Poll News that schoolgirl killer Paul Bernardo might be marrying a woman from London, Ont. sparked a spirited reaction on Facebook last week.

A Tim Hortons gift card if you are the Featured Letter authorFeatured Letter Canadians owe organized labour a debt To the editor: Re: ‘Striking workers should count their blessings’, letter to the editor, durhamre- gion.com, July 2, 2014. It never ceases to amaze me how people forget how Canada has grown and pros- pered over the past 147 years. The rights and privileges we as citizens enjoy today such as education, health care, holidays, weekends, vacation time, maternity and paternity leave, employ- ment insurance, CPP, OAS and the right to work in a safe and harassment-free workplace were all rights that generations before us had fought and sacrificed for, many of whom belonged to unions. The only rhetoric I see is that spouted by people who fail to see that although we do have a great life in Canada it came at a cost. Canadians’ high standard of living and social programs used to help all walks of life, including the poor, are owed to those who organized labour movements in the past. Unions and organized labour are not the selfish and self-fulfilling extortionists some would have your readers believe, but they raise the quality of life for every- one to make this country even greater and make the workplace a better place for all. Being a man of faith myself, I can pray and thank God for that. Sean Murray 1. Video game player 2. Voice-over artist 3. Chocolatier 4. Ferrari driving instructor 5. Mystery shopper 6. Toy creator 7.

I was slightly older than Kirsten and Leslie when this happened. I remember the posters of the Scarborough rapist and the warnings from my mom....I imagine the parents of those two girls would have loved to been able to see their daugh- ters marry and have children. Sickening that this would be allowed.....don’t even get me started with the clearly unstable “fiancee”. How sad the family of these girls has to continually hear about Catherine Hebert: Why is he even given the right to communicate with the outside world? Holly Shane: She should be taken for a mental evaluation; no woman in her right mind would ever be with a man even close to as evil as him. He should not be allowed to be married, he should be Canada’s exception to the death penalty, he deserves no rights. He lost all rights he had to any happiness in life the second he laid a hand on his first victim. Nancy Gollert Marsh: The woman is obviously insecure, naïve, and gull- ible. Her parents need to keep trying to present her with the truth about who Paul Bernardo was and still is. Marlene Heather Maschke: Nancy hit the nail on the head ... It’s just infatuation. So this relationship will be very short lived and brief. She’s probably excited and euphoric about being “in love”. Any other serial killer who has gotten married behind bars and is in prision never to be released …the marriage is always brief. Once reality and bore- dom set in and she realizes her needs are not being met, she will leave this POS.

She extends a hand and a soft-spoken and gracious wel- come. Only a faint scar on her chin and what sounds like a speech impediment offer a preview of the story she’s about to share. The 33-year-old woman, who once dreamed of becoming a police officer like her father, was instead dealt a different hand to play in life -- and a cruel hand, it was -- but one senses straight away that adopting the victim mentality never occurred to the articulate young woman. Hers is the spirit of a warrior, and a wise one at that. Her eyes are clear and pretty, but she’s legally blind and only has a small patch of eyesight left. She’s lost the senses of taste and smell. She admits to feeling dizzy all the time. But she’s alive. And that ultimate gift is not lost on her. “I am so blessed,” is a phrase she uses often over the next hour. “Blessed” is about the last word David Ginn would have chosen to describe his family on Jan. 25, 2003. On that Satur- day, the now-retired Toronto cop took the phone call no parent wants to get. Both of his daughters had set out together that day, along with their boyfriends, on a trip to a Kawartha Lakes cottage. Now Mr. Ginn was listening to an OPP officer say the unbelievable words “car accident” into his ear. The girls were being taken to hospi- tal. And no sooner had the stricken father hung up the phone when it rang again. “Things have changed,” he recalls the officer telling him. Now an air ambulance was being called, and the destination was Sunnybrook Health Sciences Centre in Toronto. As a cop himself, Mr. Ginn knew that meant it was bad. Sunnybrook, Cana- da’s largest trauma centre, specializes in urgent, critical cases, where life and death hang in the balance. Along with St. Michael’s Hospital, the city’s only other major trauma centre, Sunnybrook has its own helipad for air ambulances to land. That fateful winter Saturday, the sun was shining as the four young people travelled toward the cottage. Sarah remembers they stopped for coffee, another variable in the inevitable catalogue of “what ifs” and “if onlys” she would think about later. If only they hadn’t stopped. What if they’d lingered just a little longer getting coffee, what if they hadn’t taken so long. But the appointment with fate was kept. Whether random or preordained -- depending on one’s view of how the uni- verse really works when it gets down to miracles or catastrophes -- one instant everything was fine, and in the next lives were changed forever. In a patch of snow that had drifted onto the road, an elderly driver lost control, and his car crossed the centre line. Sarah, in the front passenger seat, was strapped in with a malfunctioning seat belt. In the back seat behind her, her sis- ter’s boyfriend wasn’t buckled up at all. The impact of the collision threw him into the back of Sarah’s seat, crushing it down over top of her. The faulty seat belt unrav- elled and snapped, pitching her violently into the windshield. When paramedics found her, she was crumpled under the dash, in the space where her legs and feet had been resting just minutes before. She was already in a coma. Paramedics have a way of assessing the degree of consciousness in a patient. Called the Glascow coma scale, it’s a scor- ing system used by medical profession- als to help gauge the severity of a brain trauma, with the mildest injuries scor- ing between 13 and 15. The most severe brain injuries will score between 3 and 8; a patient cannot score lower than a 3. The first responders at the site of the Kawartha Lakes crash that day assessed Sarah at a level 3 to 4. At Sunnybrook, Eveline and David Ginn were told there was only a 10-per cent chance their daughter was going to live. Sarah’s face was so swollen, they couldn’t see her eyes, nose or mouth. Her brain was bleeding, her lungs had collapsed and her liver was torn in half. The medical staff thought she’d be lucky to make it through the night. But her luck held, and Sarah didn’t die. One night, she came close. Her brain pressure had “gone off the chart”, and her parents were told she wasn’t going to make it. They rushed into the intensive care unit, asking God to spare their daughter, and when they touched her arm, her brain pressure went down. Sarah believes that’s the moment she experienced walking on a cloud with God, and he motioned to her with his hand to “go back.” She remained in a coma for six weeks, and “When I woke up, I couldn’t do anything at all.” Today, more than a decade later, Sarah is a speaker for Sunnybrook’s Prevent Alco- hol and Risk-related Trauma in Youth (PARTY) program. She tells her story to young people, and runs a business called A Second Chance, offering speaking engage- ments, along with support to families deal- ing with car accident and trauma injuries. Her website is www.sarahssecondchance. com. She has limited recall of the first seven years of her recovery, which included 18 surgeries, speech and cognitive reha- bilitation, and physical therapy. She had to learn to walk and talk again, with the constant help and encouragement of her parents. Damage to her optic nerve has robbed her of her ability to taste and smell, and has left her with limited eyesight. She laments her inability to drive a car, and the loss of independence that brings. But the one time she asked in despair, “God, why didn’t you take me?” the song “Don’t Give Up” by musician Josh Groban came on the radio, and every word spoke to her soul. To this day, she credits the song with being a major motivator in her recovery. Later, she would donate $2,000 to charity for the opportunity to meet the singer, who she says is “the most incredi- ble, nicest person.” Her father says another major factor in her recovery was her studying to become a registered holistic nutritionist, a one-year course that took Sarah four years to com- plete. But it accelerated her recovery, and helped reconnect the brain’s pathways, her dad believes. Sarah says she’s a far more spiritual per- son now than she was before the accident, and her life philosophy has changed. “Before the crash, I’d complain about the stupidest things,” she laughs. Now, she counts her blessings, such as her parents and her true friends, and being able to have a conversation. When her constant dizziness sometimes leads to falls, she tells herself, “Just get back up again. “Every day I’m happy to open my eyes, and see the beautiful stuff still. The most beautiful thing is seeing the trees, the grass. “Love life, and appreciate who you are,” she advises. “Never be ashamed of who you are.” -- Stories of Inspiration will appear monthly in 2014.

Canada closed out the tournament with a record of 3-4 after a 69-39 loss to Australia Saturday. “Overall, it was a really good expe- rience being at this U17 tournament,” Bailey said in a press release. “We got a big reality check realizing that we can’t just come out thinking we are going to win. We have to fight no matter who we are playing. We can’t underestimate any team at these tournaments. We need to always fight for the ball and not give away any possessions at all.” “I think we had some highs and lows,” added Canada’s head coach, Carly Clarke. “If you look schedule-wise we played seven of the top 10 teams and we probably had one of the more challenging schedules of the tourna- ment but that’s the reality of a world championship. I think in the end we probably underachieved a little bit but hopefully our girls learned what it takes to play at this level.” Gilmour nets field lacrosse scholarship Pickering resident first Canadian to join Division 2 program Brad Kelly bkelly@durhamregion.com PICKERING -- Even before he plays his first game, Jake Gilmour has made history at Florida’s Saint Leo University. Maybe, when he’s done, he can re-write the history books with his performance on the field for the Lions lacrosse team. The Pickering resident made history by being the first Canadian to join the school’s team, followed just a couple of days later by good friend Zack Lysyk of Oshawa. “Zack and I went on our visit together,” says Gilmour of his teammate and friend with the Edge lacrosse program. “We talked about how cool it would be to live together. We agreed that it was the perfect idea to go down there.” The school, located just a half hour from Tampa, had the criteria Gilmour was look- ing for in an NCAA program. He went on visits to Towson University in Baltimore, Rutgers University in New Jersey and the University of Massachusetts, as well as Saint Leo. In the end, it was hard to turn down an opportunity to live in the Sun- shine State. “I wanted the small, homey environ- ment,” says the 17 year old. “That’s one thing that turned me off at Rutgers was that there are 38,000 students there and the campus, you have to take buses from one side of the campus to the other. I didn’t want that.” The Pine Ridge graduate played both hockey and lacrosse growing up. In the winter, he spent one season with the AAA Ajax-Pickering Raiders, the rest with the Pickering Panthers. In the summer, it was lacrosse with the West Durham program for box. He joined the U19 Beaches field lacrosse team for two seasons, switching to the Edge lacrosse program the last two years. This past summer with the Ajax Iron- heads Jr. B lacrosse team, Gilmour finished third in scoring with 11-24-35 point totals in 16 games. He hopes to move up to Jr. A next season with Burlington, but if that doesn’t work out, has no hesitation coming back to the Ironheads. The scholarship process started about three years ago when he joined the Edge program, dedicated to providing athletes exposure to NCAA programs through tour- naments, while requiring team members to maintain a 75-per cent average in school. At many of the tournaments in the United States, as many as 45 college coaches were in attendance. “I got an e-mail from Edge because they saw me at field provincials and thought that I would have a shot at getting a schol- arship down in the States,” says Gilmour of the initial contact. He was recruited by Nick Cotter, a Whitby resident and assistant coach at Saint Leo, who just joined the staff earlier this year. Although attending a Division I school was enticing, Gilmour felt Division 2 Saint Leo would be a better fit. “One of the first things coach Nick and I talked about was playing time,” says Gilm- our. “I had a long discussion with my mom and dad and they said you can go to Divi- sion I and not play until your third or fourth year. “Coach Nick told me on the phone that he’s bringing me down to play me.” While Gilmour knows on the field he will be playing attack, in the classroom he’s not sure what route to go, either majoring in history or criminal justice. 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 9 , 2 0 1 4 12 AP Ask us about Prepaid Maintenance.

Swedish forward, Danish defenceman expected to play Brian McNair bmcnair@durhamregion.com OSHAWA -- The Oshawa Generals are hop- ing to add two big bodies who will make an immediate impact in the wake of Wednes- day’s Canadian Hockey League import draft. The Generals, who finished last season without an import player on the roster, hope to see both Swedish forward Tobias Lindberg and Danish defenceman Sonny Hertzberg in the lineup for the 2014-15 Ontario Hockey League season. In his first year at the helm of the import draft, Generals GM Roger Hunt chose Lind- berg with the 46th overall pick and Hertz- berg 106th. Lindberg is a six-foot-three, 200- pound right winger who was selected in the fourth round by the Ottawa Senators in the 2013 NHL draft. “I think the hard work begins now for us to convince the Ottawa Senators and Tobias that this is the best place to get him to his ulti- mate goals which, I can only assume is going to be playing in the NHL,” said Hunt, who was off to Ottawa last Thursday to attend a Senators orientation camp. “Our impres- sions are he is coming to play.” Lindberg scored seven goals and 22 points in 38 games with Djurgarden’s in Sweden’s U20 elite junior league this past season and has played for Sweden in the past at the U16 through U19 levels. Hertzberg is a six-foot-two, 190-pound defenceman who also played in the Swed- ish junior elite league, scoring four goals and 13 points in 42 games with Frolunda. He also had two goals and five points in eight games as Denmark earned a promotion back to the world junior hockey championships for 2015. Hertzberg is 19 years old and Lindberg turns 19 on July 22. “I think these two draft picks were for now, they’re not for down the road,” Hunt said. “Certainly it’s their intentions that they’re going to come over.” Generals add a pair through CHL import draft 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 9 , 2 0 1 4 14 AP 1-888-806-1856 triosdurham.comCONTACTUS TODAY!

It broke our hearts to lose you both, For You did not go alone. For part of us went with you The day God called you home. You left us beautiful memories, Your love is still our guide, And though we cannot see you, You are always at our side. Our family chain is broken, and nothing seems the same, But as God calls us one by one, The chain will link again. Forever in our hearts, Sharon, Gary, Stephen and Heather FORGET, John Maurice - 82, formerly a resident at Fairview Lodge, Whitby, died on Tuesday, July 8, 2014 following a long series of health complications. John is survived by his most loyal wife Margaret (nee Mahoney). Born May 5, 1932 in Penetanguishene, Ontario to Edgar and Justine (Hamelin) Forget. John grew up in Pentetanguishene, the youngest of four boys and moved to Ajax, Ontario in 1943. He is predeceased by two siblings Julien and Joe and is survived by his brother Gil (Isabel) Forget of Lindsay. John was the father of eight children: James (Pauline) Forget, Jay (Heather) Forget, Marianne (Bob) Malloy, Fr. Charles Forget, Mark (Sharon) Forget, Michael (d. 1962), David Forget and Paula (Paul) Podesta. John was a Grandfather to 14 and a Great Grandfather to 17. John is remembered for his tremendous faith which saw him through the good times and storms in his life. John will be remembered most for his big smile and friendly disposition. He was known to many as "Papa John". John was also a proud and grateful member of Alcoholics Anonymous for 53 years and was instrumental in helping numerous fellow alcoholics to achieve and maintain sobriety for many, many years. While John will be missed by many, he will remain a cherished friend to so many. A special note of recognition and gratitude goes to Fairview Lodge Nursing Home in Whitby for their exceptional care of both John and Margaret.
