Many happy returns for Durham beer drinkers DURHAM -- You see it every week- end: People pulling up to The Beer Store and toting in cases of empty bottles. Whether the bottles came from a party the night before or have been accumulating for weeks in the shed out back, Durham residents realize there’s value in those emp- ties. Consumers have been return- ing their empties for generations, mindful of the fact they can avoid- ing sending waste to landfill and at the same time collect depos- it money that can either be put in their pockets, or reinvested in more suds. And according to a recent stew- ardship report, The Beer Store’s deposit-return system is working better than ever. Full story, page 10 Ajax man stabbed numerous times in Pickering PICKERING -- An Ajax man suf- fered serious injuries after he was stabbed during a Sunday night fight in Pickering. Police said they were called to Krosno Boulevard at about 11:45 p.m. on Sept. 28 after witnesses reported two men fighting out- side. When police arrived they found a 41-year-old Ajax man with numerous stab wounds. He was taken to a Toronto-area trauma centre where he under- went surgery for serious, but non life-threatening injuries. The suspect fled the area after witnesses yelled at the men to stop fighting. Police said the suspect is described as a black man between 20 and 25 years old, about six feet tall with brown hair and a heavy build. He was wearing blue jeans and a blue T-shirt. Anyone with new information about this investigation is asked to call Det. Kent at 1-888-579- 1520 ext. 2529 or make an anon- ymous tip to Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-8477 or www.dur- hamregionalcrimestoppers.ca. Tipsters are eligible for a cash reward of up to $2,000.

The incident happened between 7 and 8 a.m., said Javed Akbar, the administrator at the centre. Mr. Akbar noticed the damage when he arrived at 10 a.m. The glass door had “cracks and a hole in it. I immediately called the police. There wasn’t any trace of anything else or on the ground.” Durham Regional Police spokesman Ser- geant Bill Calder said police were at the centre just after 10 a.m. on Sept. 24. “There were people in the building, peo- ple in the area” at the time of the incident, Sgt. Calder noted. Police have obtained external video from the centre and “that’s what we’re looking at right now,” the sergeant added. It’s thought a high-powered BB gun or a pellet gun was used, Sgt. Calder said. Mr. Akbar stated, “We’re really sur- prised. It’s such a peaceful neighbour- hood. We have no qualms. It’s a beautiful, tranquil atmosphere. I don’t know what would motivate someone. We’re really shocked.” Replacing the glass door will take a cou- ple of weeks as a new one has to be special- ly ordered, Mr. Akbar noted. The damage is less than $1,000 but he noted, “Who would have done this? Police said it was probably a passing car. “Why would someone do that to a wor- shipping place, any worshipping place, I would say,” Mr. Akbar added. “In fact, we have such a wonderful neigh- bourhood,” he said, adding many members of the community come to the centre when it holds carnivals and other events. “It’s a community-oriented neighbour- hood. For something like this to happen is very concerning.” The case has been assigned to the detec- tive office at the West Division, Sgt. Calder said. Anyone with information can leave an anonymous tip with Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-8477 or on the website at www. durhamregionalcrimestoppers.ca. Shot fired through front door of Pickering Islamic Centre PICKERING -- Shattered window at the Pickering Islamic Centre, the result of a pellet shot through the window overnight. Ron Pietroniro / Metroland Vandals spray anti-Islamic graffiti in Pickering By Leeanna McLean lmclean@durhamregion.com DURHAM -- It’s been been less than a week since the Pickering Islamic Cen- tre’s door was shot out. Five days later and only five kilometres down the road, anti- Islam vandals have written the words, “F*** Islam” on a train overpass at Fairport and Kingston roads. The administrator at Pickering Islamic Centre, Javed Akbar, says the congregation is saddened to see this happen. “The thing is we live in a very, very peace- ful society. There is so much tranquility here and this is our home. If anything hap- pens against anyone, we take it rather seri- ously.” Against the backdrop of terrorist organi- zation ISIS (Islamic State in Iraq and Syria) threatening Canada and Prime Minister Stephen Harper’s comment that “this phe- nomenon is a direct threat to the securi- ty of this country,” Mr. Akbar says he does not understand why vandalism would be directed against the religion. “Whatever is being done elsewhere in the world, is a bunch of people who are mis- guided, totally misguided, and do not rep- resent the faith they proclaim to be repre- senting, it’s as simple as that,” Mr. Akbar. Mr. Akbar says the centre condemns world violence in the name of Islam, call- ing it “totally, totally inconceivable,” but reminds society that this is just a small group. “The majority of people understand what the faith is all about,” he says. Durham Regional Police spokesman Dave Selby says it’s a concern for the police anytime anyone appears to be attacking another group. “Whether it be a religious group or what have you, we encourage people to be vigi- lant with their own safety and make sure that they report these incidents to us so that we can fully investigate.” Mr. Selby says a vandalism case is treated like any other investigation. Police look for witnesses and try to find video from store or home security systems. They open up tip lines with the hopes of receiving any source of information. “We do take graffiti seriously and we will investigate it. We have made numerous arrests regarding graffiti on public build- ings and bridges over the years. They are very difficult things to investigate but we have had some success.” Mr. Akbar says the centre is open to any- one at any time who may be seeking infor- mation. “What is happening is people are glued to the TV and whatever they see on the TV, these people have little knowledge and they start doing things like that (vandalism). We are open. If they have any questions, or any doubt or anything of that nature or inqui- ry, they are most welcome to come down and sit down and talk to us about it,” says Mr. Akbar. “We interact with ordinary citi- zens and that’s one of the channels we use and of course the media plays a major role in educating people, and they have to play a positive role in doing that.” ‘‘Whatever is being done elsewhere in the world, is a bunch of people who are misguided, totally misguided, and do not represent the faith they proclaim to be representing, it’s as simple as that.’ Javed Akbar 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 1 , 2 0 1 4 4 AP & REMEMBER,YOU CAN NOW SHOP ONLINE!

HealthCareTransformation.ca #seniorshealth facebook.com/CMAHCT CELEBRATE NATIONAL SENIORS DAY Ajax upset at Veridian board size Pickering board chairman says it’s been reduced by 25 per cent Keith Gilligan kgilligan@durhamregion.com AJAX -- Ajax has refused to sign the share- holders’ agreement with Veridian Corpora- tion, saying the company’s board of directors is too large and has too many politicians. The chairman of the board, Pickering Councillor Doug Dickerson, said Ajax has an option -- it could sell its shares and go it alone. Ajax’s refusal to sign the agreement, how- ever, will have no impact, as the other three shareholders -- Pickering, Clarington and Belleville -- have approved the agreement, so it’s in effect. The Veridian board has 15 members, nine of whom are politicians. By comparison, Toronto Hydro has a board of 11, including three politicians. Veridian reduced the number of board members in June, from 20 to the current 15. At the time, Coun. Dickerson said the reduc- tion would save $100,000 annually in board salaries. Ajax Mayor Steve Parish said even with the smaller board, “It’s way off the map. There are too many directors and too many politi- cians.” The Oshawa and Whitby utilities “basically have no politicians” on their boards, he said. “Toronto Hydro isn’t as big as the board of Veridian. It’s way out of whack and it needs to be corrected.” The agreement lays out how much each of the shareholders will receive in annual divi- dends. In 2014, Ajax received a dividend of $2,624,800. The agreement required 67 per cent support and only Ajax, with 32 per cent, opposed it, he noted. The new agreement comes into effect on Jan. 1, 2015. “It’s not enough to stop it if all the other three sign it and they’ve signed it. It’s very disappointing. Everyone knows this thing is wrong,” Mayor Parish said. Coun. Dickerson said of the board still being too large, “I think that’s Ajax’s opinion and it’s not one shared by anyone else.” He noted the board was reduced in size by 25 per cent and “sadly, they’re out of tune. They asked for the vetting process. It’s been vetted and they’re still unhappy. They can put their shares on the table and see what happens.” Mayor Parish characterized the changes to the board as “very minor.” He noted a study recently completed found most utilities spend about $192,000 on their boards. The cost of the Veridian board is about $500,000. The size of the board means small divi- dends for the shareholders, he said. “Veridian has basically become a large patronage thing where favoured politicians get appointed. It’s being abused and it’s not right.” Ajax is “taking a stand” so residents in the other municipalities know about the issue, the mayor said. YOUR CASINOTOUR SPECIALISTS!

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.

Copyright © 2014 Police Ajax woman dead after crash with truck WHITBY -- An Ajax woman is dead after her car collided with a truck Friday afternoon in Whitby. Two passengers in the car were treated for minor injuries following the crash, on Vic- toria Street, just west of Thickson Road, at about 4 p.m. Durham police said the Audi, being driven westbound by a 54-year-old Ajax woman, failed to negotiate a right- hand curve then crossed the centre line and slammed into the rear axle of an eastbound transport truck. All three people in the Audi were taken to hospital, where the driver was pro- nounced dead. Her name is being withheld at the request of her family, police said. The driver of the truck, a 54-year-old Oshawa man, wasn’t injured. Officers with Durham’s collision investi- gation unit shut down the roadway for sev- eral hours; they said Saturday morning that alcohol and distracted driving have been ruled out as factors in the crash. Witnesses are asked to call police at 905-579-1520, extension 5226.

Why is Peter Rodrigues not admired for his transparency? Wouldn’t it be reveal- ing for all voters, in every municipality, to know exactly where their elected represen- tatives were at all times? What pressures were brought to bear on the City clerk to issue the “addendum”? Let’s call it what it is: a rule change. Pickering residents need openness and transparency, not last-min- ute changes. Gayle Clow, Pickering Pickering councillor Peter Rodrigues, with the van wrap that has sparked con- troversy and bylaw charges. Yes to tests, but school is so much more Math continues to be a challenge for students in Durham and Clarington given the latest test results released from the Education Quality and Accountability Office. Among Durham students, scores varied widely in Grade 6 standardized math testing (from 96 per cent of students meeting the provincial standard in one school, to 5 per cent in another), while Clarington students continue a downward trend in their statis- tics (61 per cent of Grade 6 public school stu- dents reached the provincial standard in 2009- 10, 58 per cent in 2010-11 and 2011-12, 57 per cent in 2012-13 and 54 per cent in 2013-14). The test scores provide a snapshot of stu- dent readiness and help boards identify areas in which lessons can be modified to improve those scores. However, they do not provide a detailed picture of overall learning in Durham and Clarington elementary schools. Indeed, standardized testing has more than its fair share of critics among parents and educa- tors, most of whom who argue that such tests do little to improve learning. Others believe that EQAO results -- and learning -- could be improved with modifications. But for parents, arguably those who are often most concerned with poor or declin- ing test scores in local schools, the tests do give a sense of how their child is faring in comparison to a set provincial standard. “Along with the rest of the province, a focus on mathematics instruction will continue to be a priority for our board,” said W.R. Hick, direc- tor of education for the Kawartha Pine Ridge District School Board, which oversees Claring- ton schools. So, boards will continue to turn their focus to improving those math scores in coming years and turn the trend. That is precisely what they would be expected to do, but parents are urged to keep things in perspective. Local EQAO testing makes up a tiny percentage of a child’s school year. There is much more to learning than memorizing facts and figures, or, in the jargon of teachers who annually prepare stu- dents, “teaching to the test”. Students are immersed in a culture of learn- ing that prepares them for life, not just more tests, each and every day. Common values such as respect, fairness and tolerance are vital lessons imparted. Exposure to making and appreciating art or music helps young minds grow, as do their daily interactions with peers and teachers. Physical education and games -- even recess -- help students confront and deal with conflict, play fair, and be an honourable opponent. Tests are important, certainly. But preparing students to be adults is about more than annu- al scholastic achievements. When the Berlin Wall came down As the upcoming 25th anniversary of the fall of the Berlin Wall approaches, I find myself privileged in say- ing that I was there. I had only been living in Germany a few months at the time, recently completing my education, eager to see the world and intensely following the events taking place only a few hundred kilometres away behind the Iron Curtain. The historic news broke on the Thursday evening of Nov. 9. Remember the famous pictures of people standing on the wall? I left Frankfurt the next day by train and arrived in West Berlin at 6 a.m. Saturday. I had been to West Berlin before but this time it was far more electric. There were incredibly long lineups at every telephone booth. It was the first time East Ger- mans could call anyone they wanted. Each bank had even longer lineups in front of them because every East German was given 100 Deutsche Marks when they arrived in the west. There was a café beside the Berlin Zoo train sta- tion that was open 24 hours that I remembered and I went there for a coffee after my early arrival. It was just opening its doors. The owner told me that the previ- ous evening, for the very first time, they had to close because they ran out of almost everything. I walked from Checkpoint Charlie to the Branden- burg Gate as the crowds intensified. People started showing up with shovels and pickaxes and started hacking at the wall. One guy handed me a shovel and I did my part to help bring it down. I took a few pieces to remember the historic event. I met some American journalism students, one the daughter of a congressman. As we walked by the NBC broadcasting truck near the Brandenburg Gate, she spoke to one of the security guards. Ten minutes later we were meeting Tom Brokaw. He didn’t seem to mind the bottles of champagne in our hands. I have been to Berlin since then but for those three days in 1989, the memories still resonate 25 years later. -- Steve Jaworski grew up in Oshawa, a Donevan Collegiate, Trent University and Seneca College graduate. He lived in Germany for 10 years and now lives in Whitby with his wife Sandra and sons Lucas and Logen. Stephen Jaworski Guest column History Love me, love me not I enjoy my celebrity, what little of it I have. I really do. I’m thrilled when someone rec- ognizes me or shakes my hand or sends me an e-mail about something I’ve written. It makes my day ... usually. A few weeks ago, Kathryn and I were up visiting the wolf preserve in the Halibur- ton Forest. It’s an incredible place. In the glassed-in observatory you can safely watch wolves doing all their cool wolf stuff only feet away. We were there, in a crowd of a couple dozen other people, when I noticed that a kid was staring at me. I’m used to the polite double-take most adults do when they think they might’ve seen me somewhere before. When that happens, it’s usually only a mat- ter of a quick smile and some brief eye con- tact before an equally polite conversation can be struck. With kids, it’s different. Kids are kind of like cats in that they have no compunction about staring at you well beyond any socially acceptable time lim- its. This kid was not only staring at me but he was smirking. It was unnerving. He then tugged on the sleeve of who, I can only guess from their shared freckles, was his sister, and she too began to stare and smirk. In potentially awkward cases like this I tend to behave as though I were dealing with a rogue bear or perhaps a group of Jehovah’s Witnesses. I keep eye contact to a minimum and back away slowly to neutral ground. The more distance I tried to put between us, the closer they came. Finally the boy, who looked like he’d be perfectly at home in Fagin’s Den, stepped up and with an insou- ciant flick of his long brown hair, sneered, “Hey, aren’t you on TV?” It’s worth pointing out here that kids, as well as being predatorial starers, have an equally inappropriate sense of volume when speaking in a crowd. No sooner had the kid blurted his query when every head in the room snapped over to us. I get terri- bly uncomfortable when this happens. I feel as though there is a huge spotlight sudden- ly shining on me and I’ve done something wrong. The kid may as well have shouted, “Hey, did you just touch me inappropriate- ly?” Fortunately I have a girlfriend who is not only skilled at running interference for me in these situations but who is also wonder- fully gifted at dealing with children. Before I could say something stupid or admissable in court, Kathryn pleasantly chimed in. “You must be thinking of his Netflix com- mercial.” “Nah, that ain’t it.” The kid was suddenly from the Bowery or lower east side. Kathryn was the picture of patience. “Oh then, you’ve probably seen him on Really Me.” A light went on in the kid’s shifty little eyes. “Oh yeah. That’s it.” I smiled wanly from behind Kathryn, relieved to be near the end of this encounter. “You look way fatter on TV.” I like children, generally. But at this point I was considering bribing the wolf curator guy to arrange a little ‘feeding time accident’. I’m sure that kind of thing happens all the time. Sensing my vibe, Kathryn began guiding us towards the exit. Undaunted, The Artful Dodger followed. “That show ain’t very funny.” Crowd of witnesses or not, I was a step away from Jerseying the little puke when he played his ace: “Can my sister and me get a picture with you?” I had been stroked. Instantly all was forgiv- en and we gathered in for a smiling, freckle- filled photo. You see, in spite of everything, in that instant I had heard the little voice in the back of my head. The voice that remind- ed me that there will come a day, eventually, when nobody will recognize me or want a photo taken. God bless the little bugger. -- Durham resident Neil Crone, actor, comic, writer, saves some of his best lines for this column. 10 Cellphone weather apps Enter Laughing Neil Crone Actor, comic, writer Let’s Talk Weigh in on topics of the day www.facebook.com/newsdurham Poll ON THE PHONE: Facebook took up the story of a phone left behind by a young boy out having fun rollerskating with friends and what the sur- veillance video recorded. Here’s what they said: The Islamic State in Iraq and Syria has issued a direct threat to Canadians at home. Are you worried? 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 1 , 2 0 1 4 7 AP Shannon Thickins: Some of the comments on here are making my blood boil. Kids make mistakes.

Bring it on! 47% Specialized transit needs improvements To the editor: Re: ‘Disabled Durham residents frustrated with Transit service’, news, durhamregion. com, Sept, 18, 2014. I too am a frequent rider with specialized services and cannot believe how I and other riders are treated. I have been told I can- not go somewhere as it’s a social gathering, I have been asked why I am going some- place, I have been asked if it’s medical, etc. I am a grown man who feels degraded because I have a physical disability. This is against the law. All they need to know is the address and pickup times. I cannot take regular transit and have been medically approved for handi-tran- sit. Because of my disability I have person- al support workers and nurses who get me ready for my rides. Transit has changed my time without letting me know and the bus or cab shows up an hour earlier. Or they phone that morning and ask me to hurry as the bus will be earlt Seriously? I have painstakingly booked my rides to correspond with my workers as I can’t hurry like everyone else and require help. They have no idea what we go through and really don’t seem to care. You can never get through on the phone. Someone with certain disabilities cannot hold a phone for 40 minutes let alone five minutes. They say it’s about budget constraints, maybe partially, but what about the human factor here? And what about compassion as one day you or a loved one could be in a similar situation? Remember, it is an elec- tion year. William Thompson Featured Letter WIN! A Tim Hortons gift card if you are the Featured Letter author 1. Yahoo Weather 2. Weather Line 3. The Weather Channel 4.

Disgust- ing. Anyone calling this kid dumb is ignorant as well. Most if not all have forgotten our phone at some point Patricia Startek: I left a gift in Tim Horton’s last week, returned half an hour later and two great women were waiting for me! There are some won- derful honest people in Oshawa. Unfortunately Alexander is learning that there are bad people in town too. Kaytee Jade: ...We live in a society where not many people have mor- als any longer and people don’t care how they obtain things any longer.. it’s wrong and sad and disgusting.. but it is life.. but we should all collectively get together as a community and help this child find his phone or replace it... because thats what communities do. Melanie Barnett: The suspect is described as female, white approx. 5.6 inches tall with blonde hair in a ponytail. she was wearing a black baseball cap with a white logo, black leggings, pink shirt with grey stripes along each side and black flat sneakers with white laces. Diana Nelson-Riggs Ticks me off that no one will turn phones in. My friend dropped his new phone yester- day. Now it’s gone. Jeff Keibel: I don’t see a phone being stolen. I see a phone being abandoned and someone picked it up. JD Custom SafetyWear: We were lucky to have our son’s returned when he left it in a taxi. Hope this boy Rachel Cross: Wow... Ridiculous. My 2 year old knows better. Im ashamed. And the poor kid even went back in and they knew it too. I hope karma gets them tenfold. 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 1 , 2 0 1 4 8 P Discover and createmoments of joy! Don’t miss these, and other great deals!

Whether the bottles came from a party the night before or have been accumulating for weeks in the shed out back, Durham resi- dents realize there’s value in those empties. Consumers have been return- ing their empties for generations, mindful of the fact they can avoid- ing sending waste to landfill and at the same time collect depos- it money that can either be put in their pockets, or reinvested in more suds. And according to a recent stew- ardship report, The Beer Store’s deposit-return system is working better than ever. “The Beer Store is among the leading programs in the country,” said Brian Zeiler-Kligman, direc- tor of sustainability with Canada’s National Brewers. “We’ve been doing this since the end of Prohibition,” he said. “It’s ingrained in people.” Brewers introduced its depos- it return system in 1927 and back then, Mr. Zeiler-Kligman said, the motivation was purely financial; why continually pay for new con- tainers when the average beer bot- tle can be reused multiple times? Over time environmental con- sciousness has increased, and people are more inclined to look for recycling options. But it’s the financial incentive that continues to drive The Beer Store’s recovery efforts, Mr. Zeiler-Kligman said. “We talk about it as an environ- mental benefit, but first and fore- most the reason it exists is eco- nomics,” he said. It’s a mutually beneficial sys- tem, Mr. Zeiler-Kligman noted; consumers are attracted by the 10-cent per bottle refund, and brewers reap savings as they’re able to reuse bottles up to 15 times. “For the industry it’s a huge cost savings,” Mr. Zeiler-Kligman said. In 2013-2014 The Beer Store recovered more containers than were sold, according to the stew- ardship report. Figures indi- cate 1.45 billion beer containers were sold, but 1.65 million were returned at The Beer Store outlets and other authorized return loca- tions. The company reports an over- all packaging recovery rate of 92 per cent. There’s little doubt that the finan- cial incentive is the driver behind The Beer Store’s material recovery success, said Alastair Harris-Cart- wright, spokesman with Steward- ship Ontario. But what really mat- ters, he said, is that it works. “Deposit return programs are quite common across Canada for beverage containers and are one way of encouraging consumers to recycle their containers,” he said. “Promoting recycling programs and their importance, and edu- cating residents about what can and can’t be recycled through the various recycling programs in the province is key to encouraging and enabling more people to recycle.” And Ontarians have accepted recycling, with most residents rec- ognizing the practice as important to sustaining the environment, Stewardship Ontario reports. The province currently has a residen- tial recycling rate of 63 per cent, and six in 10 people believe they recycle 50 per cent or more of their waste. The Beer Store has recently undertaken steps, including reno- vations to existing stores, to further facilitate container returns. That move followed the assumption in 2007 of The Beer Store’s collec- tion of wine, spirits and other con- tainers under the Ontario Deposit Return Program. Mr. Zeiler-Kligman said The Beer Store was a natural fit for the pro- gram because of its “ready-made infrastructure” for returns. “It’s been an extremely success- ful program,” he said. In fact, in April 2014, the pro- gram saw the return of its two-bil- lionth container, he said. And while there’s no refund for it, consumers can also return any and all packaging associated with their purchases, from beer caps to cardboard cases to plastic bags. “If we sell it, we will take it back,” Mr. Zeiler-Kligman said. “We actu- ally recover more paper and plas- tic than the industry generates.” Financial incentive drives successful deposit system Beer drinkers see value of their empties 1.45 Billion Sold 1.65 BillionRecovered The Beer Store’s (Beer) Packaging Management System Results ODRP Deposit Value & Market Share Glass Containers less than or equalto 630ml April 29, 2013 - April 30, 2014 (Except for cans which cover the period May 6, 2013 - May 4, 2014 19.4% Glass Containers over 630ml 50.8% Aluminum or steel cans equal to 1L 20.1% Aluminum or steel cans over 1L 0% Tetra Pak (Polycoat) & Bag-in-Box less than or equal to 630ml 0.2% Tetra Pak (Polycoat) & Bag-in-Box over 630ml 2.1% Polyethylene Terephathalate(PET or plastic) containers less than or equal to 630ml 4.8% Polyethylene Terephathalate(PET or plastic) containers over 630ml 2.7% Container Sales & Recovery by Container April 29, 2013 - April 30, 2014 (Except for cans which cover the period May 6, 2013 - May 4, 2014 Includes All Glass Bottles (Refillable & Non-Refillable), Refillabe Bottles (Industry Standard Bottle (ISB) and Non-Standard, Non-Refillable Bottles, Metal Cans, Kegs & PET Bottles Beer Store Sales (Units)1,457,980,949 1,655,392,030 92.3% 92.3% 335,104,388LCBO Sales (Units) Returns (Units) System Recovery Rate (2013 - 2014) System Recovery Rate (2012 - 2013) 1.45 Billion Sold 1.65Recovered The Beer Store’s (Beer) Packaging Management System Results ODRP Deposit Value & Market Share Glass Containers less than or equalto 630ml April 29, 2013 - April 30, 2014 (Except for cans which cover the period May 6, 2013 - May 4, 2014 19.4% Glass Containers over 630ml 50.8% Aluminum or steel cans equal to 1L 20.1% Aluminum or steel cans over 1L 0% Tetra Pak (Polycoat) & Bag-in-Box less than or equal to 630ml 0.2% Tetra Pak (Polycoat) & Bag-in-Box over 630ml 2.1% Polyethylene Te rephathalate(PET or plastic) containers less than or equal to 630ml 4.8% Polyethylene Te rephathalate(PET or plastic) containers over 630ml 2.7% Contariner Sales & Recovery by Container April 29, 2013 - April 30, 2014 (Except for cans which cover the period May 6, 2013 - May 4, 2014 Includes All Glass Bottles (Refillable & Non-Refillable), Refillabe Bottles (Industry Standard Bottle (ISB) and Non-Standard, Non-Refillable Bottles, Metal Cans, Kegs & PET Bottles Beer Store Sales (Units)1,457,980,949 1,655,392,030 92.3% 92.3% 335,104,388LCBO Sales (Units) Returns (Units) System Recovery Rate (2013 - 2014) System Recovery Rate (2012 - 2013) 1.45 Billion Sold 1.65 BillionRecovered The Beer Store’s (Beer) Packaging Management System Results ODRP Deposit Value & Market Share Glass Containers less than or equalto 630ml April 29, 2013 - April 30, 2014 (Except for cans which cover the period May 6, 2013 - May 4, 2014 19.4% Glass Containers over 630ml 50.8% Aluminum or steel cans equal to 1L 20.1% Aluminum or steel cans over 1L 0% Tetra Pak (Polycoat) & Bag-in-Box less than or equal to 630ml 0.2% Tetra Pak (Polycoat) & Bag-in-Box over 630ml 2.1% Polyethylene Te rephathalate(PET or plastic) containers less than or equal to 630ml 4.8% Polyethylene Te rephathalate(PET or plastic) containers over 630ml 2.7% Container Sales & Recovery by Container April 29, 2013 - April 30, 2014 (Except for cans which cover the period May 6, 2013 - May 4, 2014 Includes All Glass Bottles (Refillable & Non-Refillable), Refillabe Bottles (Industry Standard Bottle (ISB) and Non-Standard, Non-Refillable Bottles, Metal Cans, Kegs & PET Bottles Beer Store Sales (Units)1,457,980,949 1,655,392,030 92.3% 92.3% 335,104,388LCBO Sales (Units) Returns (Units) System Recovery Rate (2013 - 2014) System Recovery Rate (2012 - 2013) OSHAWA -- Brian Bullock returned empties to The Beer Store.

N.,Ajax On Sept. 26 the Dunbarton High School Enviro Club unveiled a $10,000 community enhance- ment project completed as part of the City’s Celebrating Sustainable Neighbourhoods program. The park facelift includes a water-efficient pollinator garden with an accessible walkway, three new benches -- one of which was hand-carved from a 92-year-old fallen ash tree -- and 30 new trees to replace those infested with emerald ash borer. “The goal was to make the park more appealing and more sus- tainable,” says David Gordon, a teacher at Dunbarton and the Enviro Club’s advisor. “The stu- dents surveyed local residents to find out what they wanted to see in their park and they worked hard to make it a more beautiful place for them.” The Enviro Club is the 2013 win- ner of the City’s Celebrating Sus- tainable Neighbourhoods pro- gram. The initiative, now in its sec- ond year, encourages Pickering residents to make the city more socially, economically and envi- ronmentally sustainable. To participate, groups of five people or more complete simple sustainability activities between March and November. The groups then vote on a win- ner -- the grand prize is a chance to work with the City on a $10,000 community improvement proj- ect. Dunbarton’s Enviro Club, which is made up of about 50 students in Grades 9 to 12, won the 2013 competition by finishing a long list of green projects. Club members created an out- door classroom, started energy and water conservation programs at the school, organized a large e-waste collection and climbed the CN Tower to raise funds for the World Wildlife Federation. Chantal Whitaker, sustainabil- ity co-ordinator for the City of Pickering, says the park upgrades show a lot of careful thought. The garden includes 660 plants from 22 different native species, which were chosen because they attract pollinators such as bees -- and because they don’t need a lot of watering or maintenance. The garden was also made accessible for wheelchairs and strollers so visitors can get close to the plants. Students from a Dunbarton art class painted rocks for the gar- den with the names of the differ- ent species, while a shop classes made one of the benches. “This project is a win-win and for neighbourhood residents and the environment,” Ms. Whitak- er says. “It was also an excellent learning opportunity for the stu- dents to work so closely with the City to develop and implement a community infrastructure proj- e c t ”. The Celebrating Sustainable Neighbourhoods program started in 2013 with eight groups and 342 participants. This year it has already grown to 10 groups and 1,636 participants. Residents can register for the program until November. A cel- ebration will take place in early 2015 to select this year’s winning group.

Just-released man back in jail after leading Durham cops on chase Man steals two cars, goes on 130-km trek via Ajax before being corralled in Bowmanville DURHAM -- A man released from jail Wednesday was quickly back in custody, accused of stealing two cars and fleeing from Durham police when they tried to stop him. The 130-km odyssey began with the theft of a car near the Lindsay jail early Wednesday and ended before noon when a suspect surrendered peacefully in Bowmanville, Durham police said. No injuries were reported. It’s alleged a man released from the Central East Corrections Centre stole a car on Hwy. 36 near the jail, then drove it to Orono where a second car was stolen, police said. That car was reported weaving in and out of traffic on Kingston Road in Ajax at about 10:50 a.m. The driver sped off when police attempted to stop the car; the pur- suit was called off for safety rea- sons. A short time later an offi- cer saw the suspected stolen vehicle northbound on Regional Road 57 near Bowmanville. Cops found the unoccupied vehicle in a parking lot; a male suspect, apparently returning from a coffee shop, handed over the keys and surrendered, police said. A number of stolen items were found inside the car, police said. Both stolen vehicles were returned to their owners. Facing numerous charges, including flight from police, dangerous driving, theft of a vehicle and breach of probation is Robert Clements, 28, of no fixed address. He was held for a bail hearing.

While the skill level of the individual players is scrutinized, it’s a lot easier to look good if the team has some measure of success. The Pickering Panthers under- stood that, garnering three of four points on the weekend in Oakville after opening with a 4-3 loss in overtime to Georgetown on Friday afternoon and finishing with a convincing 8-1 win over Mississauga on Saturday morning. Ultimately, said GM/head coach Mike Galati, the team success will contribute directly in helping players looking to move on to the next level. “That was something we focussed on all week and tried to instil in their thinking,” he said. “We let them know these colleges and scouts want team guys and not guys who are individuals. “It’s something we’ve struggled with in the past at the Showcase, but I think they got it and it paid off. A lot of schools had a lot of interest in our guys. That was good to see.” The only disappointment from the week- end was the loss to Georgetown, consid- ering the Panthers built a 3-1 lead just 10 seconds into the second period, only to give up a power-play goal before the peri- od ended and another marker in the third. The winner by Georgetown came just 39 seconds into overtime. Newcomer BJ Salerno led the way with three points on a goal and two assists, while Joseph Mitchell and Kevin Dimagno had the other goals. With a 10 a.m. start on Saturday, the Pan- thers got better as the game went along in the 8-1 drubbing of Mississauga, leading 2-1 after the first and then scoring three times in each of the second and third peri- ods. Salerno remained hot with two goals and two assists, matched by Dimagno who had the same. Cam Palmer had two goals as well, with one each to Dalton Lawrence and Matteo Condotta. Joseph Mitchell chipped in with three assists, while Lucas Condotta, Nicholas Lepone and Blake Cof- fey had two each. In just four games, Salerno, acquired in a trade with the Stouffville Spirit in exchange for Brodie Tutton, has made an immediate impact with six goals and seven assists in just four games. “We were lucky to get him,” said Galati. “It cost us a good player, but I think we got a guy back that has bought into what we want to do here. He’s a great kid and he’s been a huge help for sure.” The Panthers lead the way in the North Division with a 6-1-0-1 mark, and have cracked the top 20 in the Canadian Junior Hockey League rankings, landing in 18th. Work ethic and being hard to play against are contributing factors, said Galati. “We have a little bit more skill than we’ve had in the past, with the work ethic we try to carry. I think that’s what gave us such a good start,” he added. “The guys like each other and they are working hard for each other. We’re enjoying it right now.” A pair of home games will greet the Pan- thers this weekend, hosting Aurora on Sat- urday at 7:30 p.m. and Oakville on Sunday at 6:30 p.m. Both games are at the Pickering Recreation Complex. OAKVILLE -- Pickering Panthers goaltender Jordan Cartney celebrated a goal with Kevin Dimagno in a game against Georgetown during the annual Governor’s Showcase weekend in Oakville. Pickering lost 4-3 in overtime to Georgetown on Friday afternoon, but beat Mississauga 8-1 the following day.
